B[2026河北定州中学期初]
About halfway through the new ad for “the thinnest iPad ever”， almost every creative instrument artists and consumers have used over the years—from record players to books and cameras—is flattened by a powerful hydraulic press(液压机). But for me, the ugliest thing about the ad is the destruction of the musical instruments: a piano, a guitar, a drum and a trumpet.
Perhaps, the ad is meant to communicate that this tiny, thin iPad can replace them all. You can make your music with it. You can paint with it. You can play games on it. You can take your photos with it. So you can finally destroy all those things that have been so burdensome, like the massive piano and messy paints.
But these are not practical items. Nobody owns a piano because it's practical. Actually, it's one of the least practical things you can own. It is so heavy that it can damage your floor. If you happen to get a new place, you don't just need movers for it. You need special movers. You own a piano because your beloved ones sit down and play it. Such shared moments will not and can not be replaced by iPads.
You can make beautiful music and digital art with an iPad. But that art should be made alongside other music, other art, not at the cost of pianos and paints. If you think of digital artistic creation as an opportunity to shatter sculptures or bottles of paints, you never understood art at all, and you never will. It doesn't demand to destroy what is loved in order to run after the fantasy that you can fit everything that matters into your pocket.
In certain circumstances, I am worried. For example, I am worried about the costs of art and its creation. But I am not worried at all that art made by humans will ever be replaced by “the thinnest iPad ever”．
(　　) 4. What does the new iPad ad intend to tell its viewers
A. It can do a lot of things.
B. It will not be easily damaged.
C. Artists can store their information in it.
D. Customers should throw away their ugly stuff.
(　　) 5. What does the underlined word “shatter” in paragraph 4 mean
A. Create. B. Purchase. C. Break. D. Exchange.
(　　) 6. What is the best title for the text
A. The New iPad Will Put Art in Danger
B. Art Won't Be Flattened by the New iPad
C. The Costs of Art and Its Creation Are Rocketing
D. The New iPad Ad Is Depressing but Successful
(　　) 7. What is the text
A. An advertisement. B. An iPad description.
C. A music review. D. An opinion piece.
二、 七选五[2025河南部分名校月考]
In the digital age, it's quite easy to access anything you want right away through your digital devices—including books. __1__
They're better for your eyes.
The blue light from screens can be harmful to your eyes. Studies have shown that light can actually harm the eyes. Staring at a screen for too long can cause redness and dryness. __2__
You'll keep more information.
A 2014 study found that readers who use printed books absorb more information than those who read digitally on e readers. Holding a physical book in your hands helps you stay focused. __3__ Scientists owe this better absorption to the tactile(触觉的) experience of holding the book, as well as the fact that readers could see their progression more easily in a physical book.
__4__
Whether you're reading on an iPhone, a Kindle, or some other devices, digital e readers typically mean you have the Internet at your fingertips. As a result, it can easily cause you to surf the web. Having a physical book prevents you from quickly jumping to a new page or responding to a notification, meaning you'll be less likely to get disturbed by other things.
Physical books improve your sleep habits.
Routine research has shown that the blue light from screens and devices changes our melatonin(褪黑激素) levels and circadian(生理节奏的) cycles. __5__ Therefore, you'll have more difficulty enjoying a good night's rest. Instead of reading an e book, choose a physical copy that is gentler on your eyes and less disruptive to your sleep schedule.
A. It also allows you to remember more.
B. You'll be more likely to get focused.
C. It can weaken your ability to fall asleep at night.
D. However, the blue light tells your brain that you should be awake.
E. It's impossible to ignore the popularity of digital entertainment.
F. Luckily, with printed books, this is not something to worry about.
G. With the growing popularity of e books, it's worth considering the benefits of physical ones.

Rising star Mirra Andreeva, aged 17, became the youngest ever player to claim a WTA 1000 title on Saturday when she defeated Clara Tauson to win the Dubai Duty Free Tennis Championships.
The Russian tennis player took one hour and 46 minutes to defeat 22 year old Tauson in the final, falling to her knees as she celebrated the victory before rising to acknowledge the crowd.
In her on court interview afterwards, Andreeva thanked her team, her family and the crowd before half jokingly thanking herself. She smiled, “I know what I have been dealing with and I just want to thank me for always believing in me.”
Both players were competing in their first WTA 1000 final after enjoying impressive weeks to get there—Andreeva defeated five time grand slam(大满贯) champion Iga Swiatek in the quarter finals and then world No.7 Elena Rybakina in the semi finals while Tauson knocked out world No.1 Aryna Sabalenka in the round of 16.
At first, the pair were evenly matched in the final. Andreeva was broken immediately after hitting two straight double faults in her opening service game, but she fought back and eventually won the set with a dominant performance in the tiebreak. With the first set secured, Andreeva seemed more confident in the second, defending three break points to strengthen her own break at 3 1 and then winning every subsequent game to seal victory.
Still just 17 years and 299 days old, Andreeva also climbs into the top 10 of the world rankings with the win, becoming the youngest player to reach those heights since Nicole Vaidisova in 2007. Andreeva has already achieved her year's goal. Now, she aims to be in the top five by the end of the year.
“I'm very curious if I will be able to achieve it，” she said.
(　　) 5. What did Andreeva do first after winning the match
A. She celebrated on her own. B. She had an on court interview.
C. She rose to acknowledge the crowd. D. She hugged her team and her family.
(　　) 6. Why does the author mention Iga Swiatek and Elena Rybakina in paragraph 4
A. To stress the uncertainty of games.
B. To highlight Andreeva's excellence.
C. To introduce Andreeva's role models.
D. To show Tauson's obvious disadvantage.
(　　) 7. What is paragraph 5 mainly about
A. Andreeva's temporary barriers. B. How Andreeva defeated Tauson.
C. Andreeva's unique sportsmanship. D. How Andreeva enhanced her skills.
(　　) 8. What is Andreeva's next goal by the end of the year
A. To become the youngest player in the world.
B. To take the place of Nicole Vaidisova in sports.
C. To stay curious about other players all the time.
D. To climb into the top five of the world rankings.

Why do we like sports Jamie Carragher and Declan Rice are two English footballers who have said their sport is “all about winning”. However, that's not the case. __1__
Watching a man hanging in a Maltese position or a woman on the balance beam(平衡木), we'll feel their unique strength. They take delight in the beauty of their bodies, and share that with us. __2__ They do it with extra care and delight that invite us into what they are doing.
In a game, there is nothing wrong with an eagerness to do things well, but that's different from demanding that it must happen. Former England football manager Roy Hodgson disliked the phrase—“a must win game”. He believed much psychological suffering is created by believing “musts”. A way to avoid this is to watch your language. Phrases like “I must” and “I should” only increase pressure. __3__ Then we can drop back into that calm, peaceful self.
We tend to think we'll not feel satisfied until we achieve what we have expected. __4__ Caitlyn Jenner, an American track and field athlete, once talked about how she still felt troubled, even after winning Olympic Gold. Remember, we can only treasure this very moment that truly exists.
Winning is frequently unimpressive, but the experience itself is enjoyable. The day after Jonny Wilkinson kicked the winning goal, he felt empty. However, he experienced a transcendence on the field. __5__ Seeking to strengthen our sense of self through “winning” will not bring us happiness, but the experience itself will.
A. They don't just do the sport.
B. Stick with “I want” or “I would like”．
C. Sports can reveal deep beauty and life lessons.
D. The problem is that it doesn't tend to work that way.
E. Doing sports can help us strengthen our body and mind.
F. We are happiest when we lose ourselves in the experience.
G. Seldom do we think how upset we'll be if we lose the game.

Latest genetic analysis of Ludwig van Beethoven's hair has revealed that the composer had a high genetic risk for liver(肝) disease, which could have contributed to his death. The discovery contradicts the widely believed suggestion that the composer died from lead poisoning, but does not shed light on how he came to lose his hearing.
Tristan Begg at the University of Cambridge and his colleagues have analysed the DNA of eight locks of hair claimed to come from Beethoven's head to see if it could explain the composer's health issues. To make sure the hair actually came from Beethoven, researchers first examined the paperwork for each lock and used DNA analysis to determine the age of the samples. “For DNA samples from the last few centuries, you'll tend to see the accumulation of damage patterns，” said Begg. “You want to see these patterns consistent with the documented age of the samples.” Then they compared the DNA of the eight locks. The combination of these methods led them to conclude that five of them were from Beethoven.
Examining the DNA data, the researchers found that the composer had a high genetic risk for liver disease. Begg said this risk would be relatively benign for most people, but Beethoven's reportedly high alcohol consumption would have increased the likelihood that he developed the condition. Begg said this finding, combined with information from examining his dead body, suggests that cirrhosis, a serious liver disease, could have led to Beethoven's death.
Previous analysis of Beethoven's hair samples suggested he had lead poisoning, but this study reveals that the earlier work was done on hair from a woman. “This kind of genetic study of a famous individual is fascinating. We hope that by making Beethoven's genetic data publicly available for researchers, remaining questions about his health and genealogy(家谱) can someday be answered，” Begg said.
(　　) 1. What did the latest research find about Beethoven
A. Lead poisoning led to his death. B. His gene determined his deafness.
C. He probably died from liver disease. D. Too much alcohol ruined his health.
(　　) 2. How did researchers ensure the hair came from Beethoven
A. By combining different DNA samples.
B. By examining and collecting paperwork.
C. By analysing and comparing genetic data.
D. By documenting consistent damage patterns.
(　　) 3. What does the underlined word “benign” mean in paragraph 3
A. Harmless. B. Unacceptable. C. Additional. D. Significant.
(　　) 4. Why is the “hair from a woman” mentioned in the last paragraph
A. To blame previous researchers.
B. To show advances in technology.
C. To explain a past error in conclusion.
D. To discuss gender differences in research.

A longtime University of Iowa professor's life changing cystic fibrosis(囊性纤维化) research was honored with one of biomedicine's most famous awards—often referred to as the “American Nobel”. Dr Michael J. Welsh, along with two other scientists, won the 2025 Lasker DeBakey Clinical Medical Research Award for their work on treatments that have lengthened and bettered the lives of patients with cystic fibrosis. A genetic disorder that causes thick mucus(黏液) to block organ functions, cystic fibrosis most often affects the lungs where infections lead to progressive destruction.
When Welsh started his medical career nearly 50 years ago, cystic fibrosis was a serious disease, with patients rarely seeing their 30th birthday. Facing numerous failures, he never gave up, believing that answers would be found. Using Welsh's results, the two other honored scientists worked for decades to develop Trikafta, a drug that made cystic fibrosis possible to control for about 90% of those diagnosed. Today, cystic fibrosis patients' life expectancy can be well into the 80s.
Specifically, Welsh's research changed the fundamental understanding of a critical protein, known as CFTR, and how it is transformed by a gene mutation(突变) in cystic fibrosis patients, resulting in a breakdown of the body's usual protective systems. With that knowledge, Welsh's team proved that if cooled down, the mutated CFTR protein could be “corrected” in a sense, a key discovery that allowed scientists to explore the possibility of a more permanent fix to the protein's damage.
“Mike Welsh's work illustrates how fundamental science—driven by curiosity, cooperation, and purpose—can lead to transformative innovations and treatments，” Dr Denise Jamieson, the university's vice president, says in a news release.
While Welsh said that he is “incredibly honored to receive this award”， he points to the cooperative science and the many unnamed researchers who made the groundbreaking work possible. “For me, it is truly a celebration of our entire scientific enterprise，” Welsh said in the release. By sharing credit with all contributors, he showed his dedication to the scientific cause.
(　　) 5. Why is “American Nobel” mentioned in paragraph 1
A. To show why this award is highly respected.
B. To stress the challenges of fibrosis treatment.
C. To prove the research deserves the Nobel Prize.
D. To explain why the research gained world fame.
(　　) 6. What is the primary significance of Dr Welsh's research
A. Discovering the genetic cause of cystic fibrosis.
B. Developing the final drug combination for patients.
C. Transforming a deadly disease into a manageable one.
D. Serving as a new diagnosis basis for cystic fibrosis.
(　　) 7. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about
A. The main difficulties in protein research.
B. The process of developing a new fibrosis treatment.
C. A full explanation of how gene changes affect health.
D. A breakthrough discovery about fixing a faulty protein.
(　　) 8. Which of the following can best describe Dr Welsh
A. Determined and humble. B. Strict and responsible.
C. Independent and creative. D. Courageous and confident.

A research team from the Institute of Metal Research(IMR) under the Chinese Academy of Sciences has recently announced a significant breakthrough. They have developed a new type of flexible solid state battery that can be bent an incredible 20，000 times without significant loss of charge capacity. The findings were published in the renowned scientific journal Advanced Materials in October 2025.
This innovation represents a major advance for solid state lithium pared to the traditional lithium ion batteries in widespread use today, this new type is safer and can potentially store more energy in the same space.
The breakthrough centers on a special material engineered by the scientists—a polymer based electrolyte. This component is crucial as it enables the movement of lithium ions between the positive and negative electrodes. The team skillfully designed this polymer to incorporate two key functional elements: ethoxy groups, which facilitate rapid ion transport, and short sulfur chains, which are essential for energy storage.
By integrating these two functions at the molecular level, the researchers successfully overcame a common major challenge in solid state batteries: the high resistance and poor contact at the electrode electrolyte interface, which typically limits performance.
In laboratory tests, batteries incorporating this new material demonstrated a remarkable 86% increase in energy density in their composite cathodes. Crucially, they withstood 20，000 bending cycles while maintaining their full performance.
This combination of exceptional flexibility, high energy storage, and greater safety opens up exciting possibilities for future electronics. It paves the way for truly bendable devices, such as foldable smartphones, advanced wearable health monitors, and more durable power sources for electric vehicles.
(　　) 4. Why does the new type of battery outperform traditional lithium ion batteries
A. It can be produced at a much lower cost.
B. It has better security and higher energy storage.
C. It can be recharged in a significantly shorter time.
D. It has the advantage of a longer overall lifespan.
(　　) 5. What is the function of the polymer based electrolyte
A. It can be used as the main source of electrical energy.
B. It affects the flow of lithium ions between the electrodes.
C. It helps integrate ethoxy groups and short sulfur chains.
D. It will replace the cathode in the battery structure.
(　　) 6. What does the 20，000 bending cycle test mentioned demonstrate
A. The new battery is ready for immediate mass production.
B. The new battery has convinced users of its efficiency.
C. The new battery meets the strict standards of smartphone makers.
D. The new battery maintains its performance under repeated stress.
(　　) 7. What is the main purpose of the passage
A. To announce a technological breakthrough and its potential applications.
B. To compare the performance of various batteries in electric vehicles.
C. To explain the working principles of solid state lithium batteries.
D. To trace the historical development of battery technology.

A
【语篇导读】本文是应用文，主要介绍了四本新发行的书。
1. 细节理解题。The Power of Habit的评分为4.47、 The Book of Joy为4.11分、Educated为4.19分、The Midnight Library为4.15分。4.47是这几个评分中最高的，所以The Power of Habit获得了最高的评分。
2. 细节理解题。根据The Book of Joy by Emma Green and John Reynold部分中Their engaging conversations, filled with wisdom and humor可知，The Book of Joy中有生动的讨论内容，且其是由Emma Green和John Reynold所写。
3. 写作目的题。这篇文章介绍了几本新书，包括它们的内容和特点等；结合第一段中“these newly released books have something for everyone”可推知，本文是在推荐几本高质量的书。
B
【语篇导读】本文是议论文，讲述作者认为最新发布的iPad广告传达出的信息是错误的，他认为新款iPad不可能会取代传统的艺术创造工具。
4. 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Perhaps, the ad is meant to communicate that this tiny, thin iPad can replace them all. You can make your music with it. You can paint with it. You can play games on it. You can take your photos with it.”可知，新的iPad广告想告诉观众它可以做很多事情。
5. 词义猜测题。根据画线词前“But that art should be made alongside other music, other art, not at the cost of pianos and paints.”及画线词后“It doesn't demand to destroy what is loved in order to run after the fantasy that you can fit everything that matters into your pocket.”可推断，如果你将数字艺术创作视为破坏雕塑或颜料瓶的机会，那么你从未懂过艺术，也永远不会懂。shatter的意思是“破坏，摧毁”，与break意思相近。
6. 标题归纳题。通读全文，特别是最后一段中“But I am not worried at all that art made by humans will ever be replaced by ‘the thinnest iPad ever’．”可知，本文主要讲的是作者认为最新发布的iPad广告传达出的信息是错误的。他认为新款iPad不可能会取代传统的艺术创造工具，因此最好的标题是B项“新款iPad压不垮艺术”。
