I didn’t always drink a lot of caffeine (咖啡因). I hardly enjoyed the taste of coffee until my mid-20s. But once I started working long hours from home, I soon needed a third cup of coffee just to feel the energy one used to give me. But by the end of the day, my heart felt like it was beating faster, I couldn’t relax, and it was difficult to fall asleep.
According to Dr. Giuseppe Aragona, an online doctor, caffeine dependence isn’t sustainable (可持续的). “Imagine your body like your finances. Running it on caffeine is the same as surviving through credit cards,” he said. “Eventually, the bank (your body in this case) will want to cash-in, and this makes it much more likely for you to become tired, lose focus, and by the end of the day, want to achieve nothing.”
So I decided to remove all caffeinated drinks from my life for two weeks, no matter how awful it felt. I started with three cups of lemon water in the morning, had a decaffeinated soda in the afternoon, and ended with a cup of tea. Though the effects, at first, were hardly the same, the act of getting up from my desk to refill my cup made the day a bit more bearable.
Dr. Aragona also told me that kicking all the caffeine could help me find a more natural body rhythm (节律) and reduce my anxiety levels. But along the way, he said I’d likely be sleepy. “Of course, you will still get tired, but this is natural, because all caffeine is doing is saving that for later — and likely to a greater degree after you force your body into overdrive,” he added.
The first three days were awful. I felt extremely tired, had really terrible headaches, and could barely make it to 10 a.m. without wanting to take a nap. After about a week, I felt like a different person. By the end of the two weeks, I felt a lot more in control of my mind, body, and life. And I didn’t miss caffeine as much as I thought I would.
24. Why did the author start to drink a lot of caffeine
A. To keep energetic. B. To stay up late. C. To enjoy the taste. D. To fight severe stress.
25. What is a consequence of caffeine dependence according to Dr. Aragona
A. Financial difficulties. B. Physical burnout. C. Longer working hours. D. Emotional breakdown.
26. What does the underlined word “that” in paragraph 4 refer to
A. Anxiety. B. Focus. C. Tiredness. D. Sleep.
27. Which of the following best describes the author’s experience of quitting caffeine
A. Tiring but interesting. B. Boring but worthwhile. C. Painful but rewarding. D. Awkward but educational.
C
When was the last time you thought about music, and what role does music play in your life If you enjoy music every day, you are likely gaining many benefits.
Music has a mathematical structure based on relationships between one note and the next. You may not be aware of it, but your brain has to do a lot of computing to make sense of it. So, not surprisingly, listening to music can improve learning, memory, and mental alertness (警觉性). It also boosts concentration and mindfulness, as listening, playing, or moving to music keeps you focused in the present moment and even puts you “in the zone” where you experience the happy state of “flow”.
Research has shown that listening to music can reduce anxiety, blood pressure, and pain, and improve sleep quality, mood, well-being, and happiness. And especially when moving to music, your brain gets washed in beneficial “feel-good” hormones (激素). So music can potentially extend your life and enhance its quality.
Music is a vital element of culture, and every culture has specific types of music created, produced, and enjoyed by its people. In the U. S. alone, there are dozens of popular types, including Afro-beat, bluegrass, classical, and country. All these types of music have different origins and are associated with different subcultures, but they can be enjoyed by anyone, leading to cross-cultural appreciation and communication. Musical traditions are also connected to cultural celebrations — think about the music you associate with birthdays, graduations, weddings, and so on.
Your music preference in the moment can depend on how you want to feel. You likely pick specific types of music depending on whether you’re looking to relax or exercise, trying to be productive, or romantic. The right music can boost your mood and motivation to clean up, do homework, or work out. In contrast, you likely avoid music that makes you sad, or bored.
28.What is the function of the question in the beginning
A.To put forward a new concept. B.To offer some advice for readers.
C.To get the information of your interest. D.To lead in the topic to be talked about.
29.Why can listening to music improve your ability to pay attention
A.It keeps you concentrated. B.It makes you do computing.
C.It builds relations between notes. D.It draws your interest in new things.
30.The author mentions American music in paragraph 4 to show that ______.
A.music connects different peoples B.the USA is a country with diverse cultures
C.each type of music is enjoyed by unique people D.not all kinds of music are popular with people
31.What can you infer from the last paragraph
A.Music has little effect on people’s emotions. B.People choose music based on their desired emotions.
C.All types of music make people feel energetic. D.Sad music is always avoided by people.
D
New research challenges the widespread belief that artificial intelligence (AI) is driving a major rise in global greenhouse gas emissions. Scientists from the University of Waterloo and the Georgia Institute of Technology analyzed U.S. economic data alongside estimates of how frequently AI tools are used across different industries. Their aim was to understand what might happen to the environment if AI adoption increases along its current path.
According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration, 83 percent of the nation’s economic activity relies on petrol, coal and natural gas. These fuels release greenhouse gases when burned. The researchers noted that total energy use from AI in the U.S. matched the electricity consumption of Iceland, yet this amount remained insignificant when viewed at national or global levels.
“It is important to note that the increase in energy use is not going to be uniform. It’s going to be felt more in the places where electricity is produced to power the data centers,” said Dr Juan Moreno-Cruz, a professor at the School of Environment, Enterprise and Development at the University of Waterloo and Canada Research Chair in Energy Transitions. “If you look at that energy from the local perspective, that’s a big deal because some places could see double the amount of electricity output and emissions. But at a larger scale, AI’s use of energy won’t be noticeable.”
“For people who believe that the use of AI will be a major problem for the climate and think we should avoid it, we’re offering a different perspective,” Moreno-Cruz added. “The effects on climate are not that significant, and we can use AI to develop green technologies or to improve existing ones.”
To develop their findings, environmental economists Moreno-Cruz and Dr Anthony Harding reviewed a variety of economic sectors, the types of jobs within those sectors, and the share of tasks that could potentially be performed by AI. Moreno-Cruz and Harding intend to apply the same approach to additional countries in order to understand how AI adoption may affect environmental outcomes across different regions of the world.
32. What is the primary goal of the research
A. To promote the development of green AI. B. To measure energy consumption worldwide.
C. To warn about AI’s growing energy demands. D. To assess AI’s potential environmental effects.
33. What can be said about AI energy consumption in the U.S.
A. It contributes to petrol-based activities. B. It will soon reach the global emission target.
C. It has small influence at the national level. D. It exceeds Iceland’s electricity consumption.
34. What do researchers plan to do next
A. Extend their research to more countries. B. Shift focus to AI’s economic advantages.
C. Develop AI applications to stop emissions. D. Reduce the energy use of AI in data centers.
35. Which of the following is the main idea of the text
A. AI technology drives greenhouse gas emissions. B. AI energy consumption urgently needs regulating.
C. Data centers emit more than previously estimated. D. AI’s impact on climate is much smaller than believed.

Tom threw himself on the sofa, sighing. Mother’s Day was coming, but he didn’t have a present. “How can I buy a present without any money ” he thought.
Tom picked up the newspaper that was lying on the sofa. He noticed a large advertisement on the front page. The local department store was sponsoring(赞助)a contest. “Tell us why your mom is special and win a beautiful and precious gift for her.” said the advertisement.
“This is perfect!” thought Tom. He ran to his room with the newspaper. After taking a pencil and a blank piece of paper from his desk, he started to write.
“My mom is the best mother in the world. She always makes lunch for me to take to school and she never forgets my dessert. She reads as many books to me before bed as I want her to. She always remembers to check under the bed for monsters(怪兽). And she gives me the best hug, but never in front of my friends, who may laugh at me for hugging my mom.”
Tom liked what he had written. He copied it neatly and got an envelope and a stamp. He ran to the mailbox with his entry(参赛作品). “Mom will love having a special gift,” he thought.
Tom checked his mailbox every day for his prize. Days went by, and then weeks. Soon it was the day before Mother’s Day. Tom still hadn’t heard anything about the contest.
“What am I going to do now ” he wondered. He didn’t have a present, and he didn’t have a gift. And he still didn’t have money.
He had to think of something. Tom closed his eyes, curled(使弯曲)his toes and thought hard.

Dear Sir or Madam,
Hearing that the Chinese Traditional Culture Festival will be launched in our community, I am writing to apply for a volunteer. The details are demonstrated as follows.
To begin with, it is my fluent oral English that qualifies me for inviting foreign guests to join our festival. As an added advantage, I always bury myself in books about Chinese traditions,which allows me to be familiar with various aspects of traditional culture. What's more, fond of reaching my hand to help people in need, will go to great lengths to assist when needs arise.
Should you grant me an opportunity, I would spare no effort to commit myself to your satisfaction.
Yours,
Li Hua
67.(25)
【答案】One possible version:
Then Tom thought he could show his love for his mother in another way. He searched in his drawers and fortunately found a piece of delicate paper. He sat down straight on his chair, and began to write a letter in his best handwriting as a Mother’s Day present. “Dear Mom, I’m writing this to tell you that you are the best mother in the world…” With a sincere heart. Tom finished the letter and put it in an envelope with a smile on his face.
On Mother’s Day, Tom gave his mother the envelope with the letter in it. She opened it and found the letter. Having finishing reading the letter, his mom swept him up into her arms(抱进怀里)with her eyes wet. “Thank you, my dear!” she said, hugging Tom more tightly. Leaning against his mother’s shoulder, Tom slowly explained why be had chosen to write a letter as a gift. After hearing the reason, his mom gently touched his head, saving, “To me, your letter is better than any other gift.” Hugging each other, they felt happy as if they had everything. Indeed, love should be made known to loved ones.
