This year, American art lovers can look forward to a diverse lineup of exhibitions, from French Impressionism to German Romanticism and beyond.
What Stands behind the Flowers
11 May — 27 September at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City, NY

On October 1, the world said goodbye to Jane Goodall, a British chimpanzee (黑猩猩) expert who died at the age of 91. Goodall studied chimpanzees at the Gombe Stream Game Reserve — now a national park — in Tanzania in 1960. She had not been trained as a scientist, but many believe that this was one of her greatest strengths because it meant she was not influenced by everyone else’s thoughts about chimps.
Chimpanzees are humans’ closest living relatives, and Goodall’s research showed their social behaviour to be complex and highly developed. Goodall discovered that chimpanzees not only used tools but also made them. She observed chimps “fishing” for tasty insect snacks by sticking a long piece of grass into the nest. When the straw became bent at the end, the animal broke it off to keep the tool useful. Goodall also gave the chimps names and noticed that the animals had strong family bonds and emotions. “It isn’t only human beings who have personality, who are capable of logical thought and emotions like joy and sorrow,” she said in a 1996 PBS documentary. She also discovered that wild chimps hunt and kill for meat.
In 1977, she founded the Jane Goodall Institute, which manages the Gombe Stream Research Centre and has become a global organization for animals, people and the environment. One of its projects is the Tchimpounga Chimpanzee Rehabilitation Centre in the Republic of the Congo, which helps chimps that have been hurt or have lost their parents.
Professor Cat Hobaiter, a chimp expert from the University of St Andrews, told the BBC, “Jane would be the first person to tell us that what the world needs right now is not sadness over her loss, but to get to work.”
4. What was Goodall’s advantage in studying chimps
A. She learned from experts. B. She received systematic training.
C. She had independent views on chimps. D. She analyzed others’ thoughts about chimps.
5. What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about
A. Chimpanzees’ ability to make tools.
B. Goodall’s findings about chimpanzees.
C. Chimpanzees’ bonds with family members.
D. Goodall’s comments on chimpanzees’ behavior.
6. What does Cat Hobaiter suggest
A. Working in the wild. B. Continuing Goodall’s mission.
C. Finding out the world’s needs. D. Expressing sadness over Goodall’s loss.
7. Which of the following can best describe Jane Goodall
A. Pioneering and devoted. B. Polite and talented.
C. Humorous and generous. D. Modest and cautious.
C
Named after American doctor George Huntington, who first described it 150 years ago, Huntington’s disease (HD) affects around 41,000 people in the U. S. alone, with over 200,000 more at risk. It is caused by a faulty Huntington gene, which makes a toxic protein that slowly damages the brain. For decades, Huntington’s disease has been a silent thief — robbing people of their ability to move, think, and connect with others, with no cure in sight. But a breakthrough from a Dutch team and the company uniQure is changing that story, offering the first therapy that can slow the disease’s cruel progression.
Now, the gene therapy AMT-130 is turning hope into reality. In a 3-year study,29 patients received a single dose of the treatment during a 12-to-18-hour surgery, in which the therapy was injected directly into the brain. The treatment delivers a small piece of DNA that blocks the faulty gene from making the harmful protein. The results were remarkable: patients who got the high dose saw their disease progress 75% more slowly than those in an untreated control group. Tests showed their ability to think, walk, and control movements stayed far more stable. “This result changes everything,” said study author Ed Wild.
While the therapy is still being reviewed for safety, uniQure hopes to get approval for wider use soon. Experts note that AMT-130 is not a cure, and the surgery is complex — plus, its high cost may limit access at first. Even so, it marks a turning point. For the HD community, this is more than a medical win. It is proof that science can outpace even the most stubborn diseases, giving families a chance to hold onto more time together. As researcher Marc Dantzer once said of similar breakthroughs, such treatments could become “powerful” tools in fighting illnesses that once seemed unbeatable.
8. What do we know about Huntington’s disease according to paragraph 1
A. It was discovered and named by a Dutch researcher.
B. It has had effective treatments available for decades.
C. It has a direct impact on about 41,000 people worldwide.
D. It is caused by a faulty gene that produces a harmful protein.
9. What is the primary function of the gene therapy AMT-130
A. To repair the damaged brain tissues.
B. To replace the faulty Huntington gene entirely.
C. To block harmful protein production with DNA.
D. To stimulate the brain to produce healthier proteins.
10. Why is AMT-130 regarded as a promising treatment
A. It is widely used. B. It cures a stubborn disease.
C. It reduces the cost of surgery. D. It proves scientific advancement.
11. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. A Stubborn Disease: History and Symptoms of HD
B. A Complex Surgery: The Future of Brain Treatments
C. Gene Therapy Breakthrough: Slowing Huntington’s Disease
D. Affordable Medical Treatments: The Development Challenge
D
A report from Ember, a research group, found that in the first half of 2025, renewable energy produced more electricity than coal did across the world. Renewable energy comes from natural sources that don’t run out, such as the Sun or wind. Coal has been the main way to make electricity on Earth for more than 100 years. Formed over millions of years from dead plant matter, the black lump is burned in power stations to heat water and create steam. This turns structures called turbines (涡轮机), and the energy from the movement is turned into electricity.
When coal is burned, it releases gases including carbon dioxide, which contributes to climate change. Scientists say humans must reduce their use of fossil fuels, such as coal, oil, and gas, in order to stop climate change from getting worse. One step people are taking is using electric vehicles instead of cars fueled by gas. But if the electricity used to charge the vehicles is still generated from coal, it will not be beneficial to the planet.
The first half of 2025 marked a milestone in global energy: renewable sources accounted for 34.3% of electricity generation, exceeding coal at 33.1%. This change was primarily driven by reduced coal use in China and India, the world’s top electricity consumers. Critically, this development contributed to a 4.5% drop in power sector carbon emissions globally, showing its environmental impact. The growth was led by a rapid growth in solar and wind, which together supplied a record 18.2% of global electricity, with China alone accounting for over half of the new solar capacity.
“We are seeing the first signs of a crucial shift,” said Malgorzata Wiatros-Motyka from Ember. “Solar and wind are now growing fast enough to meet the world’s growing appetite for electricity.”
12. What do the underlined words “the black lump” in paragraph 1 refer to
A. Solid coal. B. Dead plant matter.
C. Power from turbines. D. Energy from the movement.
13. Why do scientists suggest reducing the use of fossil fuels
A. To make electric vehicles more popular.
B. To lower the cost of generating electricity.
C. To prevent the worsening of climate change.
D. To better study the effects of carbon dioxide.
14. How does the author support the main argument in paragraph 3
A. By sharing personal stories. B. By detailing new technologies.
C. By quoting leading energy experts. D. By listing key data and national cases.
15. What is the main message conveyed by Malgorzata Wiatros-Motyka
A. Global electricity demand is expected to decline soon.
B. The transition to renewable energy is becoming a reality.
C. Coal will remain the dominant energy source for decades.
D. Renewable energy is insufficient for future electricity needs.

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
It was l a.m. in the morning, but for Marisa Shumaker, she was busy preparing birthday present for her 4-year-old daughter, Aubree. For weeks, Aubree had been asking for one thing only for her birthday: a “real piano keyboard”, not just some small one made for little kids. Now that Aubree was asleep, Shumaker pulled the box from its hiding spot in their home, ready to reveal the 61-key keyboard with full-size keys — perfect for serious beginners like Aubree. Shumaker figured she’d put together the stand (支架) and bench, and set it all up so it would be ready to play when Aubree woke up and discovered her surprise. But when she opened the box, only the stand and bench were inside. No keyboard.
Panic overtook her as she realized what she hadn’t noticed before: The keyboard was sold separately.
The night before, mother and daughter had a bedtime talk. At one point, Aubree talked about how excited her friend Jimmy was when she received the lovely doll as a birthday present last year. She also talked about her dream of being a pianist in the future.
“I wouldn’t let my daughter be disappointed on her birthday,” said Shumaker. What would Aubree think when she came downstairs and found only a bench and stand — no keyboard
There must be some way to fix this, she thought. Maybe an online retailer could deliver a keyboard by morning. Maybe she could go to a store, if one was still open. She looked into both options, but no luck. Now desperate, Shumaker posted in a neighborhood online group and explained the situation. “I’m so heartbroken and afraid that this will ruin her birthday,” she wrote.
Andy Spencer, who lives 5 miles from Shumaker, was crawling into bed just before 2 a. m. when he saw her request. “Any parent would be in a panic,” Spencer said. “I don’t want any kid to be disappointed on her birthday.”
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150个左右；
2. 请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。
Spencer thought of his daughter Hailey’s keyboard, which had hardly been played.

Rejecting the money, Spencer said all he wanted was a photo of a happy Aubree on her birthday.

Fire Safety: Our Shared Responsibility
Fires are more common in winter, so it is important to raise public awareness. Fire safety matters not only personally, but also for the whole community.
We all know that preventing fires saves lives, property, and keeps society stable. Therefore, we should build safe habits — for example, checking electrical appliances, not plugging too many devices into one socket, and keeping things that catch fire easily away from heaters. It is also key to learn how to use a fire extinguisher and remember escape routes.
Let’s each do our part. Only when everyone shares the responsibility can we create a safer place for all.
第二节（满分25分）
Spencer thought of his daughter Hailey’s keyboard, which had hardly been played. Spencer told the story to Hailey, who was eager to help. Hailey’s keyboard had 61 full-size keys and would fit perfectly on the stand that Shumaker had. So he typed a message to Shumaker and offered to give away their keyboard. Shumaker couldn’t believe how quickly her luck had appeared. “I am so thankful for your generosity,” she texted. Within a few minutes, Spencer brought the keyboard into Shumaker’s home. “How much do you want for it ” Shumaker asked, figuring she’d send him some money.
Rejecting the money, Spencer said all he wanted was a photo of a happy Aubree on her birthday. Just a few hours later, Aubree woke up and rushed into the living room. “Mom,” she exclaimed when she saw the keyboard, “This is the best birthday gift I have received!” She immediately began dancing her fingers over the keys, and her face lit up as those first few notes emerged. Later that day, Shumaker messaged Spencer the photo of Aubree playing the piano with a smile on her face and said thanks once again. The whole experience of that night impressed Shumaker with the warmth from strangers.

Improving fitness was Dion Leonard’s inspiration for starting marathon recreationally together with his wife Lucja, and then as race competitors. After finishing sixth in a South African race, he traveled to China to compete in a 155-mile race across the Gobi Desert. On the first day, he noticed a small stray (流浪的) dog wandering around the campsite, where amused competitors fed her with their own limited supplies. On day two, Dion and the dog took some time to warm up to each other, and she even tried to chew his running equipment. Dion soon named her Gobi.
Besides having completed a race requiring remarkable physical strength together, they also overcame emotionally trying circumstances when tasked with saving a severely worn-out competitor, ultimately costing them first place in the race. Through thick and thin, Dion and Gobi survived together and had no intentions of parting ways at the finish line. Determined to adopt Gobi and take her back to his home in Scotland, Dion launched a crowdfunding campaign that proved wildly successful. He later donated all extra funds to stray dog rescue organizations. However, disaster struck: Gobi went missing in Urumqi while awaiting an official approval to leave China.
Despite the language barrier and the city’s 3 million population, Dion immediately flew back to search for her. By then, their heartwarming story had gained international media coverage, inspiring hundreds of Chinese volunteers to join in his search. Thankfully, Gobi was found. The reunion did more than bring them back together; it helped people of different cultures grow closer together as well.
The pair now live happily in Tucson. Dion has written and published books documenting his and Gobi’s story — the children’s book tells a visual story through Gobi’s eyes while the adult book (a New York Times bestseller called Finding Gobi) addresses themes such as Dion’s upbringing that drove him not to leave Gobi behind. The different angles educate about everything from the value of exercise to animal welfare to overcoming obstacles.
24. What can be inferred from the first paragraph
A. Dion quickly formed a bond with Gobi. B. The organizers provided limited supplies.
C. Gobi amused runners by chewing equipment. D. Dogs were encouraged to accompany runners.
25. Why did Dion launch a crowdfunding campaign
A. To finance his search for Gobi. B. To help rescue other stray dogs.
C. To cover the cost of bringing Gobi back home. D. To obtain an approval for Gobi to leave China.
26. Which of the following best describes Dion’s books
A. Critical and cross-cultural. B. Motivational and time-honored.
C. Innovative and fantasy-rooted. D. Heartfelt and multi-dimensional.
27. What is the main idea of the text
A. Animal protection is always on the way. B. A friendship can go beyond boundaries.
C. Traveling a thousand miles makes a man. D. Differences can be bridged with joint efforts.
C
Our solar system is peppered with large rocks, called asteroids. If a big asteroid strikes Earth, there are many possible outcomes. The space rock could drop into the ocean and not harm anyone. Or it could wipe out a city. People have a hard time understanding the chances of an asteroid strike. So a research team calculated the likelihood and compared it with other events — with some surprising results.
“A large or medium asteroid hitting Earth would be noticed worldwide,” says Carrie Nugent, a planetary scientist at Olin College. While killer asteroids have hit before, such as the one that finished off the dinosaurs 66 million years ago, Nugent says a similar situation is not expected to occur in the future. “We try to put this event, which is actually a preventable event, in context with other preventable events,” she adds.
Using a computer program, Nugent and her team modeled a group of asteroids similar to real near-Earth objects (NEOs). They fed them into a program called JPL Horizons. Anyone can use that program to look up predicted locations for objects in the solar system. For this project, her team determined whether each modeled asteroid would cross paths with Earth.
That allowed the team to estimate the frequency of asteroids bigger than 140 meters across, which is around the size of a large ship, Nugent says. An asteroid of this size would hit Earth roughly every 11, 000 years.
However, that number is still hard to understand. So Nugent compared the chances of an asteroid hitting Earth with other events that people may experience as follows.
One-In-X Chance Event Happens to an Individual, or the Planet, Over a Human Lifetime
Books and movies often describe asteroid run-ins as unstoppable events. “The truth is actually entirely the opposite,” she says. NASA’s DART Mission in 2022 hit an asteroid that wasn’t in danger of hitting Earth. The test changed the asteroid’s path. This showed that people might be able to avoid such a crash one day. So, it’s important to do research, such as sky surveys, that locate these objects.
28. According to paragraph 2, what does Nugent think of asteroids striking Earth
A. It’s hard to predict it. B. It’s urgent to prevent it.
C. There’s no need to worry about it. D. There’ll be disastrous outcomes.
29. What does the underlined word “That” in paragraph 4 refer to
A. Computer modeling. B. Frequency estimate.
C. System operation. D. Project assessment.
30. Which of the following events is least likely to happen
A. Coyote attack. B. Elephant attack.
C. Carbon monoxide poisoning. D. Asteroid impact.
31. What is the author’s purpose in writing the last paragraph
A. To introduce various asteroid research methods.
B. To applaud NASA’s asteroid research findings.
C. To draw media attention to asteroid research.
D. To stress the importance of asteroid research.
D
In the early hours of March 13, 1964, Kitty Genovese was attacked violently near her New York apartment despite neighbors hearing her screams. The case made headlines in The New York Times, which reported that 38 witnesses heard the attack but took no action.
To figure out the reason, social psychologists John Darley and Bibb Latané conducted two classic experiments. Their first experiment showed that the more bystanders there were, the more an individual’s sense of responsibility diffused — 85% of participants helped in a one-on-one situation, while only 31%did so in a group of six. In their second smoke experiment, 75% of people alone sought help when smoke filled the room, but just 10% did so with passive bystanders around.
They pointed out that the bystander effect mainly springs from people’s failure to interpret a situation as an emergency due to others’ inaction. The second reason for the bystander effect is that when multiple bystanders are present, each person feels less personal commitment to act, as they assume others (especially those with professional skills like doctors or police) will intervene. This phenomenon is more common in urban areas with many strangers, unlike in small communities where people feel a clear sense of responsibility to help others they know.
Recent research has cast doubt on the universality of Darley and Latané’s classic bystander effect theory. Using real-world CCTV footage from three pairs of culturally diverse cities — Lancaster, Amsterdam, and Cape Town — Dr, Richard Philpot of Lancaster University and his team analyzed 212 violent incidents.
Their findings showed that bystanders intervened in 91% of cases, and in direct contradiction to the original theory, the presence of more bystanders actually increased the likelihood of intervention, with multiple people often stepping in together. The consistent types of intervention across different cities suggest we are born with the wish to help others, driven by social conventions and a desire to understand, protect, and assist others.
32. What does the underlined word “diffused”‘ in paragraph 2 mean
A. Weakened. B. Shifted. C. Continued. D. Increased.
33. The bystander effect occurs primarily because people ______.
A. are unwilling to help strangers B. are influenced by urbanization
C. are discouraged by professionals D. are unable to recognize an emergency
34. Which statement does Philpot probably agree with
A. Protecting others should be advocated.
B. Bystander responses rely on intervention types.
C. The tendency to help is rooted in human nature.
D. Cultural differences lead to the bystander effect.
35. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. The Cold Shoulder B. The Blind Eye
C. A Willing Heart D. A Still Tongue

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
One early morning, as I walked around the block, a friend’s “hi” from my phone nearly stopped me in my tracks. 36 She talked me through a life update from the opposite side of the country. It felt like the surprise of an unexpected letter because we normally didn’t communicate that way.
At the time, I only sent voice messages occasionally. Stage fright would kick in. I worried that I’d say the wrong thing, or that others would experience the same cringe (局促不安) upon hearing my voice that I do. 37
But recently, I’ve found myself recalling how my friend’s voice broke through loneliness. Particularly during a season that’s supposed to be all about love, I think about all the ways that can look — specifically, how we reach out and connect. As I’ve sent more random voice messages to loved ones, it’s become obvious how much I was longing for this point of connection with them. 38 There’s a level of closeness that comes with this kind of listening.
39 It allows you to take your time and speak without the pressure of an immediate response. You can fill it with laughter, pauses, and tone that a text message can’t convey. It’s a small act of presence, a way to say, "I’m thinking of you, and I want to connect in a way that feels human. ”
In a world where so much of our communication is quick, instrumental, and screen-based, voice messages are a rebellion (反抗). They’re a choice to be unpolished, to be real, and to invest time in someone else. 40 It’s just a friend’s “hi” in your pocket, waiting for you to hit play.
A. In fact, I’m a late adopter of voice messaging.
B. I find comfort in their voices even if I can’t see their faces.
C. It was the first voice message I remember clicking play on.
D. When we reach1 out, we can better understand others’ difficulties.
E. Sometimes, connection doesn’t have to be grand to be meaningful.
F. I think better in writing, I’d tell myself, holding on to my text messages
G. A voice message is a conscious choice for thoughtful, heartfelt connection.

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I lived in an old apartment complex where the walls were thin. For weeks, my new neighbor upstairs was keeping me awake every night between ten and midnight. What I heard was slow, forceful footsteps mixed with crying, as if someone were pacing with the weight of the world on shoulders. To cope with the noise, I would sink into the old rocking chair (摇椅) by the window. The rhythm somehow quieted my mind.
But tonight, the noise was just unbearable. I posted in the building’s group chat, “Can the 3C neighbor keep it down after 10 ” Almost immediately, Lena, a cashier at a local market, replied, “Same here. Haven’t slept well for weeks.” And Tom, who ran the secondhand shop on the corner, added, “Don’ they realize how loud it is ” A few others responded, but 3C never did.
I’d had enough. “That’s it,” I thought aloud, pulling on my slippers. “I’m going up there!” I stormed to the third floor, playing my angry speech in my head, “Keep it down! Some of us need to work tomorrow!” The moment the door opened, I blurted out (脱口而出)，“Do you have any idea how much noise you’re making ” But the rest of my prepared speech got stuck in my throat. A young woman stood there, eyes red, swaying (摇晃) gently back and forth in a desperate attempt to comfort a crying baby. The apartment behind her was humble-no dining table, no chairs, not even a lamp, only a mattress (床垫) and a few empty baby food packets on the floor.
“I’m so sorry, Madam,” she whispered, managing a weak smile, “I’m just trying to get her to sleep.” That was when my anger disappeared. A familiar rhythm surfaced in my mind as I saw her sway the baby tiredly. “I have a chair downstairs that might calm your baby,” I smiled softly. She looked up, eyes widening in disbelief.

Dear Editor,
I really appreciate the practice of playing TV programs at lunch break in the canteen. In my opinion, news programs would be a good choice.
The reasons for my recommendation are as follows. To start with, news programs, covering multiple fields such as politics, technology, economy and culture, help us move beyond textbooks, expand horizons and stay informed about current affairs. Additionally, we can develop a sense of social responsibility and civic engagement, laying the foundation to become contributing members of society.
Therefore, I believe news programs provide both a relaxing and enlightening atmosphere at lunchtime. Hopefully, we can enjoy them in the canteen soon!
Best regards,
Li Hua

“Let me fetch it for you,” I said and rushed downstairs. I dragged out the rocking chair, wrestled it upstairs and set it down beside her. “It might work,” I encouraged her to try it. She sank into it, cradling her baby, and just like that, the crying softened into quiet breaths. Eyes glistening with tears of gratitude, she whispered, “Thank you.” I waved back, closing the door behind me. Returning home, I posted a message in the group chat, explaining the young mother’s difficult situation and calling on everyone to offer her simple, respectful support.
The neighbors responded to my post and agreed to gather at 3C instantly. Lena arrived with some baby food and Tom followed with two chairs, telling he’d bring a bed frame the next day. Warm blankets, a small lamp, and toys neatly piled up at her door. Enveloped in warmth, the new mum choked up, “Thank you all! Your support means the world to me.” We smiled at each other, knowing we’d given a helping hand. I realized the “noise” we had complained about was actually a cry for help, and our kindness had turned conflict into care.

Hello, everyone! Welcome to the National Library of China! Before you is a set of newly reproduced edition of the Yongle Dadian, but they are not simple copies. They are produced using modern handmade Xuan paper and high-quality color printing, which carefully preserves the size, weight, and handwritten notes of the original volumes. As you turn the pages, you are not just reading history — you’re witnessing the act of preservation itself. More than 600 years ago, Emperor Yongle of the Ming Dynasty ordered the creation of the Yongle Dadian. His goal was ambitious: to collect all known knowledge of China at the time into one great work. The Yongle Dadian brought together over 7,000 ancient classics, covering history, philosophy and so on, from the pre-Qin period to the early Ming Dynasty. To help visitors understand its scale, scholars often compare the Yongle Dadian to a library of knowledge, carefully written by hand and bound into thousands of volumes. Now let’s take a closer look.

Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) technology is a groundbreaking solution that enables electric vehicles (EVs) to interact bidirectionally with the power grid — storing excess energy when demand is low and feeding it back to the grid during peak hours. PowerSync’s V2G service makes this innovative technology accessible to everyday EV owners, offering both environmental benefits and financial rewards.
Hardware Requirement
Users can choose a compatible (兼容的) V2G charger provided by PowerSync for 399, or use their own existing certified V2G charger. The charger connects the EV to the grid and communicates with PowerSync’s smart platform.
Smart Energy Management
The PowerSync app lets users set preferences: reserve battery power for daily drives, schedule charging during off-peak periods, or allow the system to automatically sell surplus energy back to the grid when prices are highest.
Earnings & Savings
Users earn 0.12 — 0.18 per kWh of energy fed back to the grid (rates vary by time of day). Typical EV owners save 200 — 400 annually on electricity bills and earn an additional 150 — 300 in grid feedback rewards.
Service Packages
Package Duration Price (Monthly) Inclusions
Basic 12 months 19.99 Smart app access, energy feedback payments, 24/7 technical support
Premium 12 months 29.99 All Basic inclusions, free V2G charger installation, annual charger maintenance, priority grid access

In our exploration of literature this month, My Name is Miene stands out as an appealing comic essay that has captured the hearts of many on social media. The fictional character, Miene, is a blind kitten who finds herself in a risky situation after getting separated from her mother and hurting her paw, all while being chased by a crow. Ultimately, she is rescued and finds a home with a caring family. The narrative follows Miene’s comedic yet poignant journey as she navigates the frightening world around her, struggling against her fears and pain. Her perception of life, relying on her other senses instead of sight, offers a heartwarming perspective that encourages readers to cheer for her.
One striking feature of this work is its substantial amount of text. The book is loaded with a remarkable amount of written content, surprising for a comic essay, filled with hand-drawn letters that create an extraordinary rhythm between the illustrations. The combination of text and visuals is so impressive that readers often laugh out loud when recalling its funny moments, even after closing the book.
Furthermore, the book includes notable literary references, providing insights into classic works and figures. The rich narrative not only entertains but also evokes a profound appreciation for life and existence. A particularly touching scene is when the lady of the house, Rina, decides to adopt Miene, extending her hand and saying, “I will give you my twenty years”, which showcases the deep commitment one needs to take on such responsibility.
Despite Rina’s heartfelt intentions, Miene dashes around energetically, representing the spirit of adventure and resilience. This portrayal resonates with anyone who has faced trials but still embraces life bravely, making the reading experience both enjoyable and meaningful. There are numerous interesting works that can make one lose track of time, and such a unique narrative is surely not to be missed.
24. What can be inferred about Miene from paragraph 1
A. She fails to fit in with her new family. B. Her story blends struggles and warmth.
C. Her disability makes her a bitter character. D. She injured her paw while chasing a crow.
25. What sets the book apart from other comic essays
A. It weighs visuals over written text. B. It contains abundant written content.
C. It brings greater amusement to readers. D. It is the first to combine text and visuals.
26. What does the underlined sentence in paragraph 3 convey
A. Rina’s affection for classic works. B. Rina’s commitment to animal charity.
C. Rina’s reflection on life and existence. D. Rina’s lasting promise to attend Miene.
27. Which message below can best echo My Name is Miene
A. No pains, no gains. B. Every dog has its day.
C. Every cloud has a silver lining. D. Where there is a will, there is a way.

A reforestation revolution is being led by the innovative use of autonomous drones, a practice that balances deep respect for nature with cutting-edge technology. These drones, which work with high precision, are particularly effective in restoring large areas of forests damaged by wildfires and heavy logging. Reports show they can plant trees up to ten times faster than traditional methods, greatly boosting sustainability.
The core of this technology lies in the combination of AI and LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) remote sensing. The drones use LiDAR to scan damaged areas and measure the distance between the sensor and the ground. This system assesses key environmental factors such as soil composition, moisture levels and terrain contour, as well as potential risks like erosion and flooding. Then, onboard AI analyzes all these details carefully to precisely determine the best spots for planting native seeds.
Each drone carries hundreds of biodegradable capsules. These capsules contain not only seeds but also nutrients and fungi, which help the roots thrive in harsh conditions. After identifying ideal areas, the drones fire the capsules into the soil, covering an area as large as a soccer field in less than an hour. The fungi in the capsules enrich the soil, attracting insects and animals that enable forests to thrive. This effect is also crucial for carbon sequestration, which is the process of capturing and storing carbon dioxide to prevent it from warming the planet, and is an important part of the strategy against climate change.
Initial trials in wildfire-hit Kumamoto have achieved remarkable success, with an 80% germination (萌芽) rate, much higher than the 30 — 50% of manual methods. This success has drawn international attention: the US and the UK have adopted similar AI-led drones for reforestation in hard-to-access areas, showing great global promotion potential.
Despite the achievements, challenges remain. Scaling up the project requires huge investment and may face hurdles like airspace restrictions. Additionally, the technology needs to adapt to diverse ecosystems with varying soil and climate. However, these drones bring bright prospects for global sustainability, with potential applications in restoring biodiversity, rehabilitating coral reefs and reversing desertification, playing a positive role in global ecological protection.
28. What are the major advantages of the drone reforestation
A. High accuracy and great efficiency. B. Low expense and easy maintenance.
C. Long service lifespan and consistent updates. D. All-weather adaptability and complete safety.
29. What is the main function of the fungus in the capsules
A. To protect the seeds from being damaged. B. To provide food for insects and animals.
C. To enhance root growth and soil health. D. To help break the capsules into pieces.
30. How does the author present his ideas in paragraph 4
A. By analyzing reasons and stating results.
B. By listing statistics and giving examples.
C. By giving a definition and making a contrast.
D. By making comparisons and quoting an expert.
31. What can be inferred about the technology according to the last paragraph
A. It holds great promise despite present barriers. B. It makes advances in large-scale application.
C. It can easily adapt to diverse ecosystems. D. It removes restrictions to sustainability.
D
Over the last 1,400 years, populations of the Yangtze finless porpoise have dramatically declined in China. But intensive surveys of its range only span the last couple of decades, leaving lots of gaps in scientists’ knowledge of the species. In a creative blend of art and science, a new study uses historical poetry to chart the critically endangered animal’s population across the river it calls home.
The finless porpoises once lived throughout the entire Yangtze River, which stretches from the Tibetan Plateau to the East China Sea. Now, the only known freshwater porpoise in the world has fewer than 1,800 individuals left in the wild.
The research team combed through databases of Chinese poetry to find references to the porpoise and map its past distribution. They found 724 poems that mentioned the animal, of which half noted where the porpoises were observed. Their findings were published in Current Biology.
“Having access to past data allows us to detect when declines began and correlate those changes with potential threats like habitat destruction, climate change, overhunting, disease or the introduction of invasive species,” says lead author Zhang Yaoyao, an ecologist at the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
The poems suggest the porpoise’s range has decreased by 65% since the Tang dynasty. Most of that decline happened in the river’s tributaries and lakes, where the animal’s range has decreased by 91%. While the population decrease was mostly gradual, the sharpest decline has occurred over the past 100 years. That sudden drop aligns with human activities on the river, especially dam construction in the 1950s that blocked off the porpoise’s movement to and from the river’s main channel.
The work highlights the connection between culture and science. “Poems are actually ancient citizen science, and many Chinese poets were ‘well-educated intellectuals’,” says Zhang. “These data are not perfect...But they do have a lot of information if you use them correctly.” This approach has potential for uncovering the pasts of other endangered species as well. Previously, scholars have used medieval and ancient texts to understand things like volcanic eruptions, auroras and unusual whales.
32. What challenge do scientists face in their research about the porpoise
A. Its population has dropped off dramatically.
B. Locating its habitats is increasingly difficult.
C. The long-term historical data are insufficient.
D. Its population is hard to calculate precisely.
33. What mainly contributed to the dramatic fall of the porpoise’s populations
A. Poor resistance to diseases. B. Climate changes over time.
C. Human impacts on its habitats. D. Competition with other species.
34. Why does the author mention “volcanic eruptions” in the last paragraph
A. To show major threats to endangered wildlife. B. To introduce challenges in ecological research.
C. To reveal the wisdom of ancient Chinese poets. D. To prove the value of ancient texts in research.
35. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. Historical Poems: Records of Ancient Chinese Wildlife
B. citizen Science: A New Approach to Protecting Animals
C. The Yangtze Finless Porpoise: A Critically Endangered Species
D. Ancient Poetry: A Creative Way to Study Endangered Porpoise

“Be positive!” has become a popular mindset in recent years. 36 But what happens when we take positivity to an extreme Could being blindly optimistic lead to disappointment While looking on the bright side is generally seen as a virtue, new research suggests that “toxic positivity” might actually harm our mental health.
Toxic positivity occurs when people deny their real emotions and force themselves to stay optimistic. Gitanjali Trevorrow-Seymour, a professional coach, explains that humans are naturally meant to experience a wide range of emotions, from joy and gratitude to sadness and disappointment. “None of these emotions is meant to be constant,” she says. 37 Like many things in life, mental wellbeing is all about balance.
The danger lies in labeling feelings as “good” or “bad.” When we desperately avoid “negative” emotions, we end up suppressing our real feelings. This suppression places extra stress on the body, which can eventually lead to anxiety or even physical illness. 38 If we only show our “happy” selves, our social interactions can become shallow and inauthentic.
39 When a friend is going through hard times, responding with “Try to be positive!” may be well-intentioned, but it often dismisses their feelings. Instead of feeling comforted, they may feel forced to put on a brave face, which is mentally exhausting. True support involves acknowledging their pain rather than attempting to “fix” it immediately.
So, should we avoid positive affirmations entirely Not necessarily. 40 The key is to accept all our emotions — sadness, anger, and grief — instead of treating them as problems to be solved. Only by embracing the full human experience can we truly achieve mental health.
A. This issue also affects how we support others.
B. Friends can greatly influence our attitudes towards life.
C. Even those with a bright outlook can feel grief and gloom.
D. They can be useful tools if they feel genuine and grounded.
E. What truly remains constant is a positive mindset and inner peace.
F. Moreover, forced positivity often robs us of deep connections with others.
G. Everyone strives to see the glass as half full and find the rainbow in every situation.

When I was a teenager, I was in a constant hurry. I wanted every goal to be achieved 41 , every task to be finished quickly, and every moment to be 42 . Waiting felt like a waste of time, and patience was a virtue I simply did not 43 .
One day, I grew 44 with a watercolor painting I was working on. I had been rushing through the brushstrokes, eager to finish and move on to the next project. The result was a messy, unbalanced piece that looked 45 what I had envisioned. I was about to crumple the paper and throw it away when Mrs. Carter, my art teacher, approached my desk.
She didn’t scold me or tell me to try harder. Instead, she sat beside me and said, “Art isn’t about finishing quickly; it’s about seeing, feeling, and taking the time to make each stroke 46 .” She picked up a clean brush and 47 how to layer colors gently, how to let the paint dry between applications, and how to let the artwork evolve naturally.
“Success in art, and in life, isn’t 48 by how fast you reach the end,” she said quietly, “but by the care you put into the journey.” 49 only blurs the beauty of what you’re creating.”
Her words 50 within me. I began to realize that my 51 with speed was making me miss the joy of learning. I started to approach my studies and daily life with a 52 sense of patience. I learned to savor the process and 53 the time it takes to grow and create. Mrs. Carter’s 54 taught me that slowing down is not weakness, but strength. Whenever I feel the 55 to rush, I recall her advice.
41. A. instantly B. gradually C. perfectly D. completely
42. A. memorable B. productive C. appealing D. peaceful

An international sculpture exhibition marking the Year of the Horse is underway at Inzone Harmony in Beijing. Curated by renowned Chinese sculptor Sun Longben, it 56 (feature) horse-themed works by Chinese and Russian artists.
For Sun, the horse is a loyal companion 57 (embody) speed, freedom and ambition. He also views it as a symbol closely connected with ancient military glories and national unity in Chinese culture.
Sun highlights three ancient Chinese masterpieces 58 have deeply influenced modern art. The bronze “Galloping Horse Treading on a Flying Swallow” from the Eastern Han Dynasty 59 (celebrate) for its romantic charm. Another significant work is “The Six Steeds of Zhaoling,” Tang stone reliefs (浮雕) which Sun sees 60 the beginning of thematic creation in Chinese art. Additionally, the stone statue of a galloping horse at General Huo Qubing’s tomb pioneered the “xieyi tradition”, 61 artistic style focusing on “sketching the spirit”.
Drawing on his education at Russian academies, Sun notes Russian art also values the horse as a symbol of heroism and victory. In many Russian sculptures, ancient heroes are portrayed on horseback, 62 the Anichkov Bridge in St. Petersburg is famous for its four grand horse statues.
The exhibition beautifully bridges Chinese and Russian cultures through its featured works. Pavel Shevchenko’s sculpture of a water-drinking horse, for instance, 63 (subtle) refers to a Chinese idiom about gratitude, while Sergey Kubasov’s striking winged horse conveys wishes for 64 (prosper) and good fortune in the Year of the Horse. This unique event offers a wonderful opportunity 65 (appreciate) the shared artistic spirit across two nations.

Jamie loved wandering through second-hand markets at weekends, firm in the belief that every old object carried a unique story. One rainy Saturday in November 2024, he caught sight of a thick, old-fashioned wool coat hidden in a corner of a small shop. It looked well-worn, yet still elegant. Driven by a strong desire, he bought it and brought it home.
While cleaning the coat, Jamie felt something hard and stiff in its inner pocket. He carefully pulled out a faded leather-bound diary. As Jamie flipped through the yellowed pages, he realized it was a heartfelt journal kept by a woman named Eleanor, who wrote of her deep longing for her husband, stationed overseas during a war decades ago. She recorded the bittersweet days of raising their young daughter Nancy all alone.
Page after page, Eleanor described their daughter’s first steps and the sharp sorrow when the little girl cried for “Daddy”. She wrote of small victories: teaching the girl to read, mending her dresses, preparing simple but tasty meals. All these were mixed with quiet struggles and the constant fear that her husband might never return. Yet she found strength in the hope that he would one day walk back through their door.
The final entry, dated December 24, 1954, was particularly moving. Their daughter Nancy was falling asleep, as Eleanor wrote, and still asked if “Daddy” would be home to hang the Christmas stockings. “I’ve written down every precious moment,” she noted, “so one day you’ll know how much you were loved. I’ll keep this diary until we can read these words together as a family.”
Jamie was deeply moved. On the back cover, he found a faint old address: No.12, Rosewood Lane. A strong sense of responsibility surged through him. Braving the cold rain, he headed for the address, full of expectation.
However, when he finally reached Rosewood Lane, his heart sank. The house stood empty, its windows in ruins, showing that no one had been there for a long time.

Nowadays, we teenagers have been exposed to various digital devices. We have become so dependent on technology that we are losing our ability to connect with one another.
Fortunately, I have benefited a lot from “digital minimalism”. Firstly, I begin to appreciate the world directly rather than through a screen. For example, I spend more time reading books instead of playing video games. Secondly, I have become more productive. After getting rid of my phone, I have more time to pursue other hobbies.
I am calling on all of us to put our phones aside and experience this colorful world.

Jamie was determined to find the owner anyway. He refused to give up the diary that carried so much love and hope. He took photos of the diary and the old address, then posted them on local social media groups, telling the moving story behind it. Days later, he received a message from an elderly woman named Nancy, who said the diary belonged to her late mother Eleanor. Her voice trembled as she explained that her family had moved away years ago and the coat was donated by accident. They immediately arranged to meet.
Jamie and Nancy met at a café as agreed. When Jamie handed her the diary, Nancy’s eyes were filled with tears at once. She gently touched the familiar handwriting, recalling her mother’s deep love and endless waiting for her father. She thanked Jamie sincerely for bringing back such a precious treasure. For Jamie, this experience taught him that every old item not only holds a story but also connects lost love and memories, making this rainy Saturday unusually meaningful.

On the summit of a mountain called Shishapangma, an 18-year-old Sherpa (夏尔巴人) climber called Nima recorded a selfie video. With this climb, he became the youngest person ever to top all 14 of the world’s 8,000-meter peaks.
Once he descended, Nima shared the video online under the tag (标签) “Sherpapower”, spreading the message that his people were athletes in their own right, not just guides of foreign climbers. For nearly 120 years, Sherpas have served as porters and guides for foreign climbers seeking glory on the world’s highest peaks, which makes them so closely linked to this work that many Westerners mistake the word “Sherpa” for a profession, not an ethnicity.
During his first mountain climbing, an avalanche (雪崩) claimed the lives of his best friend, Lama, and his client on their summit push. He saw how Sherpas sacrificed their own safety and even lives to help others summit. It was at that moment that he began to use the word “sherpapower” with new purpose of being a voice for his community.
To achieve this, Nima has to be a professional climber sponsored by brands like the Red Bull. The brands seldom sponsor mountaineers who follow trade routes on fixed ropes. His 14-peaks record hasn’t been enough to earn sponsorships. But for him, sponsorships mean dignity instead of money. He had to explore new routes or peaks without bottled oxygen or fixed ropes. Therefore, two months after setting his record, Nima was preparing for his next project. Alongside famed Italian climber Moro, he was attempting a winter climbing of 8,163-meter Manaslu, which was eventually cancelled due to extreme conditions. Nima immediately planned another attempt on Manaslu for next winter with his partner.
It remains to be seen if Nima will be the breakthrough athlete he wants to be. After all, he’s only 18.
24. What is the common understanding of “Sherpa” to Westerners
A. An occupation. B. An identification. C. A resolution. D. A proposal.
25. What does the underlined word “claimed” mean in paragraph 3
A. Spared. B. Guarded. C. Took. D. Sustained.
26. Why did Nima seek a different climbing route
A. To compete with top-class athletes. B. To qualify as a professional climber.
C. To build his fortune in outdoor industry. D. To get recognised as an experienced guide.
27. Which of the following best describes Nima
A. Determined and ethnically conscious. B. Carefree and strong-willed.
C. Straightforward and well-mannered. D. Modest and warm-hearted.

You’ve followed all sleep experts’ advice — going to bed on time, avoiding afternoon coffee, and keeping your bedroom cool as you like, dark with no light on, and quiet as possible — yet you still toss and turn. Glancing at the silver light through the curtains, you wonder: Could the full moon be ruining your sleep
Figuring out the moon’s impact on human sleep is challenging, as emotions and expectations often cloud judgments. Many people romanticize full moons, especially special events like harvest or blue moons, while others anticipate restlessness under a full moon, which alone can disrupt sleep. Scientific studies suggest real physiological effects caused by the moon.
In a 2013 study, Swiss researchers analyzed data from an experiment in which participants had no idea their sleep was being studied for lunar effects. Around the full moon, participants experienced a 30 percent drop in deep-sleep brain activity, took 5 minutes longer to fall asleep, and slept 20 minutes less overall. They also reported worse sleep quality and had lower levels of melatonin, the hormone (荷尔蒙) that your body releases naturally at night to calm your body down and prepare you for sleep. However, all these studies share one major limitation: they were conducted in sleep laboratories, where the subjects may be disturbed easily by the unfamiliar setting.
To address this, University of Washington researchers tracked sleep in real-world environments: three Argentinian communities (urban suburbs, rural village with limited electricity, remote area with no electricity) and 464 Seattle university students. Across all groups, regardless of artificial light access, participants slept less and took longer to fall asleep in the nights leading up to a full moon. The researchers think this may reflect an ancient adaptation: When the moon was brightest, our ancestors likely stayed up later to hunt, socialize, or work by natural light.
The sleep changes were most obvious in low-electricity communities, where moonlight remained the main light source at night. Sleep experts note that while the full moon’s effect, up to one hour less sleep, is profound, artificial light from screens likely has an even greater impact on modern sleep.
28. What is the difficulty in studying the moon’s effect on sleep
A. People’s habits and hobbies. B. Health conditions and sleep space.
C. Artificial light or noise in the room. D. People’s emotions and anticipations.
29. What did the 2013 Swiss study find about full moons
A. They caused 25 minutes less sleep on average.
B. They affected people more in the real world.
C. They had less impact on sleep than expected.
D. They led to a reduced deep-sleep brain activity.
30. Why did University of Washington researchers adjust study surroundings
A. To compare sleep patterns by age group.
B. To analyze the influence of artificial light on sleep.
C. To avoid the impact of strange settings on subjects.
D. To test whether urban lifestyle cancels lunar effects.
31. Which would be the best title for this passage
A. The End of Moonlight Folktales B. City Lights’ effects on Human Sleep
C. Moonlight’s battle with artificial light D. The Moon’s Silent Theft of Our Sleep
D
Australia’s tropical forests have become the world’s first to emit (排放) more carbon into the atmosphere than they are taking in, as a new study report in Nature. This switch is an alarm bell for the planet’s tropical forests, sounding as global leaders prepare for the COP30 meeting in the Amazon rainforest to address the crisis of global climate change.
The long-term analysis of Australia’s rainforests from 1971 to 2019 revealed that the forests’ woody biomass — its hard branches and trunks — has been shrinking since around the year 2000. Rising temperatures, droughts and tropical cyclones (气旋) driven by human activities have dramatically increased tree death rate, releasing stored carbon back into the atmosphere. Surprisingly, the extra atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO ) didn’t boost plant growth as climate models predicted, likely due to limited availability of nutrients plants need like phosphorus and other basic ones — a factor that must be considered in estimating the fate of forests.
The Amazon rainforest, which spans an area nearly as large as the continental United States and is currently shouldering a quarter of land-based carbon dioxide annually, is also at risk. It suffered its worst drought in 2024, with deforestation reaching 17 percent. Scientists have warned it could face widespread dieback by 2035 under the pressure of climate change, deforestation and extreme weather like storms. Other tropical forests face similar threats. Africa’s Congo Basin forests, once relatively stable, have shown increased tree death rate since 2010. Southeast Asia’s forests are endangered by the development of urbanization and agriculture.
A report made by the U. N. Environment Programme (UNEP) notes that about 291 million of the world’s 1.6 billion hectares of tropical forest are delicate, easily erased off from the green block forever. Protecting these forests will require global financial investments to triple to $300 billion by 2030, yet global efforts for the protection are falling short of the intended commitments. “Tropical forests are huge carbon reservoirs and we must cherish the forest carbon stocks already built up over centuries, or even millennia.” says the programme manager Wannes Hubau in the report. “Losing them would be like setting off a carbon bomb, worsening climate change.”
32. What happened to the Australia’s tropical forests
A. They were expanding rapidly. B. They became a carbon-friendly place.
C. Their woody biomass was on increase. D. They were turning into carbon emitters.
33. What might limit Australia’s forest growth with more CO
A. Long-term data analysis. B. Insufficient basic nutrients.
C. Storage of carbon in trunks. D. Climate model expectations.
34. What is paragraph 3 mainly about
A. Tropical forests will die back by 2035.
B. Farming destroys forests in tropical regions.
C. Tropical forests face growing global threats.
D. Droughts cause most rainforest loss worldwide.
35. What can we learn from the UNEP report
A. Few tropical forests are at high risk.
B. Tropical forest conservation lacks funds.
C. The death rate of tropical forests is declining.
D. Africa’s forests have the highest tree death rate.

In a time when celebrities, social media influencers, and famous personalities seem like they are just a click away, it’s easy to understand how emotional bonds with public figures have become more personal and complex than ever. 36
The term was coined in 1956 when televisions became widely available, and TV viewers began to develop the sense of false closeness with the characters on the screen. The parasocial relationships are one-sided relationships in which a person develops a strong sense of connection or familiarity with someone they don’t know, most often celebrities or media personalities. 37 They experience a bond that lacks reciprocity (互惠).
There is no firm conclusion regarding why people develop parasocial relationships. 38 When so much of our time is spent online or watching TV or movies, we’re naturally likely to recognize the faces we repeatedly see and develop warm feelings for them.
Another possible cause is loneliness. Some research suggests that the lonelier an individual feels, the more likely they are to engage in parasocial relationships, seeking a connection in some form, if not in real life. 39 Some researchers have found that highly social individuals who are more likely to form friendships and relationships in real life are also more likely to form parasocial relationships.
There is also the belief that parasocial relationships can simply be less demanding and more fun than real-life relationships. 40 Plus the subjects of parasocial relationships are typically talented, beautiful, or funny.
Originally believed to be unhealthy due to their one-sided nature, these parasocial relationships are typically harmless and, in fact, quite common.
A. Other research contradicts the idea.
B. They contribute to real-life relationships.
C. These are known as parasocial relationships.
D. Parasocial relationships can certainly have benefits.
E. But one is that the human brain developed to be social.
F. These relationships exist only in the mind of the individual.
G. There are no conflicts or maintenance that need to be attended to.

After weeks wrapped up in my youngest daughter’s wedding, it feels like a quiet 41 to save a small, warm moment. To be honest, the house had been 42 with guests for days — bed sheets to iron, meals to arrange, last-minute details at the venue (宴会) to 43 out — and scarcely did I draw a breath until the final farewell was exchanged.
Given that life has returned to its accustomed routine, I gladly 44 back into my everyday rhythm, starting with an online grocery 45 .

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Around 15 years ago, I was working at a Veterans’ Home (老兵之家) in a small town which was not far from my home. It was a nice care home and everyone there was well treated. We had an elderly gentleman, John, who had been a soldier. He was lovely but a little lonely because his wife passed away last year and he had no children.
We tried our best to cheer him up — planning small activities and checking on him regularly—but John still felt lonely. The only time he felt a little better was during his daily walk in the park nearby. That slow walk with his walking stick would lead him to an old oak tree, where he’d sit on the bench to miss his wife, finding a little peace in his lonely days.
One summer day, John came back to the care home looking clearly upset. We soon found out what was wrong: a group of teenagers wearing hoods(兜帽) had been hanging around the park. They rushed around, talking loudly. Their rude behavior made him feel uneasy and even a little annoyed. That quiet place he’d ever loved was no longer peaceful. For several days, John didn’t go there for his walks. But he missed that daily walk so badly — he couldn’t stand giving up the only thing that brought him comfort.
Days later, John approached me with a determined look. “I need to handle this myself,” he said firmly, “that’s what an old soldier does.” With that, he grabbed his walking stick and headed towards the park before I could react. Concerned about his safety, I handed over my duties to a colleague, and then followed him quietly, wondering what might happen. When arriving at the park, what I witnessed was far beyond imagination.

John stood among the teens—not angry, not demanding, but calm. Pointing to a bench under the old oak tree, John said softly, “That’s where my wife and I used to sit every afternoon. This park is the only place that eases my loneliness after she left.” The teens fell silent, ashamed. One boy stepped forward and apologized that they had no idea the park meant so much to him. Touched by their kindness, I walked up and smiled, “Thanks for your consideration. If you are curious about war stories, you’re welcome to visit us at the care home!”
The next day, the teens visited the care home as invited. They brought small snacks and flowers for John and other elders. Some chatted with the veterans, listening carefully to their stories, while others helped clean the garden. For the first time in months, the room was filled with real joy. From then on, the park regained its peace, and John’s daily walk never stopped, sometimes even with a few teens walking slowly beside him. The teens learned to care for others, and John found the warmth he’d been missing for so long.

A
Leading digital learning platforms Libby and Kanopy conducted a comprehensive 2025 survey of 3,500 undergraduate students across 50 universities in the United States and Canada. The survey, completed in January 2026, set out to identify the dominant learning styles of today’s undergraduates, measure student demand for different types of multimodal (多模态) course materials, and explore the link between multimodal learning and academic performance and engagement.
Learning Style Preference
This shift in learning styles has directly translated into a growing demand for course materials, as students seek out content that not only conveys information but also engages them in ways that match how they best process and internalize knowledge.
The following data quantifies student demand for different types of multimodal course materials accordingly.
Demand for Multimodal Course Materials
The survey also uncovered a clear link between the use of multimodal learning materials and key educational outcomes, including academic performance and classroom engagement. “This survey confirms that undergraduate learning has entered a new multimodal era — students no longer want to be passive consumers of text-based content. Educators and institutions that adapt to this shift by providing diverse, visual and interactive materials will see significant improvements in student success and engagement, and will better prepare students for the diverse, digital world they will enter upon graduation,” said Overdrive CEO Steve Potash.
21. What percentage do visual and kinesthetic learners account for in 2025
A. 40%. B. 49%. C. 51%. D. 73%.
22. Which multimodal course materials do undergraduate students like most
A. Audio podcasts. B. Video lectures.
C. Interactive infographics. D. Traditional print textbooks.
23. What does Steve think of the shift of learning style preference
A. It is worthy to be accepted. B. It relies on text-based materials.
C. It is a short-lived tendency. D. It lowers classroom engagement.
B
Ms. Gupta’s eighth-grade history class were afraid of the annual “Living History” project. This year’s theme was “The Industrial Revolution: Human Cost”. Students typically recycled Wikipedia facts for a poster. But Ms. Gupta raised a different requirement: each student would spend a week performing the dull, minute-by-minute task of a specific historical worker, logging their physical and emotional responses.
Skeptical Sam drew “Linen Mill Doffer (落纱工), age 12”. His task：every 45 minutes, for an hour after school, he must stop whatever he was doing and perform ten minutes of rapid, repetitive motion — acting out replacing bobbins (纱线筒) on a spinning machine. He set a phone timer. The first interruption came during an engaging video game. Annoyed, he hit hard at the air. The next during homework. Frustration grew. By day three, a deep sense of powerlessness set in. He couldn’t immerse in anything, anticipating the next interruption. His log entry read: “I feel overwhelmed. I can’t think a full thought.”
His research into actual doffers revealed more: lung diseases from dust, deafening noise, 14-hour days. A statistic — the average life expectancy of a mill worker in 1830 was just 42 — stopped him cold. It was no longer an abstract “cost”. It was stolen time, stolen focus, stolen childhoods. For his final project, Sam didn’t make a poster. He wrote a simple program called “The Interruption”. When activated, it would freeze the screen every 45 minutes with an image of a child worker for exactly ten minutes.
When he presented it, the class was silent. A girl who had embodied a “matchbox seller” spoke through tears about chemical poisoning. A boy who had simulated a coal carrier described the severe ache in his back.
Ms. Gupta’s goal to bridge the gap between historical data and human ache was achieved. The students had moved from memorizing facts to feeling consequence. The project’s real lesson was that empathy isn’t just feeling but the courageous act of voluntarily giving up your own control, even for a moment, to understand another’s misery.
24. What made this year’s Living History project special
A. It featured role play. B. It created fine posters.
C. It referred to Wikipedia. D. It had different themes.
25. How did Sam’s emotional change during the task
A. Curious → calm → excited. B. Doubtful → upset → shocked.
C. Frightened → nervous → relieved. D. Uninterested → anxious → disappointed.
26. Why did Sam design the program “The Interruption”
A. To play a trick. B. To share his feeling.
C. To learn history. D. To record his discovery.
27. What lesson might Sam and his classmates learn from the project
A. History is a mirror. B. Suffering builds character.
C. Walk a mile in someone’s shoes. D. Every cloud has a silver lining.
C
Ethics (伦理) in Cybersecurity by Marquez, a former cybersecurity analyst for a global tech firm, is a timely exploration of the moral dilemmas that define modern digital life.
The book is organized around six “ethical crossroads”, each illustrated with a detailed case study. One of the most striking chapters focuses on the 2025 “SecureData” case, where a major tech company discovered weakness in its popular messaging app — one that could expose users’ private conversations. The company faced a choice: tell users the problem immediately or fix it quietly over six months. Marquez walks readers through the arguments on both sides: the “duty to protect users” versus the “duty to avoid bad reputation”. She doesn’t offer a simple answer — instead, she teaches readers to weigh conflicting values, a skill she calls “ethical reasoning for the digital age”.
Marquez also challenges common myths about cybersecurity ethics. She argues against the idea that “the end justifies the means” when it comes to fighting cybercrime, citing a 2024 case where a government accessed a criminal group’s servers to recover stolen data, but in doing so, accidentally obtained the private emails of 10,000 innocent people. “Security without ethics isn’t security — it’s just control,” she writes. This focus on balancing security and ethics makes the book stand out in a field often dominated by technical solutions.
Marquez’s engaging style makes the book accessible. She, for instance, compares a company’s decision to hide a software problem to “a teacher knowing a classroom door is broken but not fixing it because he doesn’t want to stop class.” She also includes “Ethical Checklists” at the end of each chapter, which guide readers to apply the book’s lessons to their own lives, for example, should you report a friend who shares your password with others
Overall, Ethics in Cybersecurity is more than a book — it’s a tool for thinking critically about daily digital choices. As Marquez puts it: “In cyberspace, every click is a choice — and every choice has an ethical cost.”
28. What can be inferred from the 2025 “SecureData” case
A. Companies prioritize user privacy. B. User data is hard to protect.
C. Cyber ethics involves tough choices. D. Messaging apps are easy to access.
29. Which of the following is Marques probably against according to paragraph 3
A. Download papers on the CNKI. B. Polish an article by DeepSeek App.
C. Give a thump-up on a friend’s Moments. D. Disclose a friend’s address on the internet.
30. What is a feature of Ethics in Cybersecurity according to the text
A. It is packed with complex theories. B. It provides step-by-step instructions.
C. It is intended for cyber professionals. D. It adopts a down-to-earth writing style.
31. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text
A. To publicize cybercrime prevention. B. To honor a talented technical expert.
C. To introduce a book on Cybersecurity. D. To recommend an essay on digital life.
D
Modern society relies heavily on refrigeration technology, from preserving food to cooling data centers. However, widely used vapor-compression (蒸汽压缩) cooling consumes vast amounts of electricity and generates 7.8 percent of the country’s carbon emissions (排放). Solid-state cooling has been considered cleaner, but the solid materials struggle with heat transmission efficiency, restricting their practical use in large-scale applications.
The research team, led by Li Bing, a professor at the Chinese Academy of Sciences’ Institute of Metal Research, discovered a way to bypass this limitation by integrating solid cooling effects with liquid flow.
In their study, they observed ammonium thiocyanate, a widely-used industrial salt, absorbs massive amounts of heat when it dissolves (溶解) in water. By applying pressure, the process goes backward, separating the salt out and releasing a large amount of heat. This two-way cycle enables continuous cooling as pressure is applied and released in turn, making it an ideal one for refrigeration systems. “Unlike traditional cooling methods, the approach integrates the cooling material and heat-carrying material into a single liquid, facilitating heat conductivity.” Li said. This approach solves what scientists described as the “impossible triangle”, achieving low emissions, high cooling power, and efficient heat transmission all at once.
Laboratory experiments demonstrated excellent results. At room temperature, the method achieved a temperature drop of nearly 30℃ in just 20 seconds, while at higher temperatures the cooling reached as high as 54℃, far exceeding that of existing methods. Another experiment proved the process’ stability and instant response to pressure changes — key requirements for practical refrigeration systems.
Li emphasized that this technology lays foundation for the commercialization of powerful, zero-emission refrigeration systems for industrial and home use, especially the next-generation artificial intelligence computing centers. He added, however, further efforts are needed for practical application, such as breakthroughs in engineering pressure-tuned changes.
32. What is one problem of traditional cooling systems
A. They consume much energy. B. They’re used in small scale.
C. They depend on solid materials. D. They have low cooling efficiency.
33. What plays a key role in solving the “impossible triangle”
A. The solid-state materials. B. The two-way liquid cycle.
C. The pressure-tuned changes. D. The traditional cooling method.
34. What is the purpose of listing the data in paragraph 4
A. To illustrate the principle of solid cooling.
B. To explain the need for low carbon emission.
C. To show impressive effects of the new method.
D. To compare the differences of two experiments.
35. Which would be the best title for the passage
A. Salt-based Methods Work Wonders B. Traditional Cooling Meets its Limits
C. A Report on Eco-refrigeration Industry D. A Breakthrough in Cooling Technology

My daughter had just returned from a school camp where smart phones were banned, and she couldn’t stop talking about how peaceful it felt. “You should try it, Mom,” she said. “Just a month. See what happens.” 36
I bought a basic phone that could only call and text, and put my smart phone in a drawer. The first few days were difficult. I reached for my phone constantly — waiting for coffee, sitting at a red light, standing in line at the grocery store. 37 I felt empty, oddly anxious. What was I supposed to do with these moments
Slowly, I started to figure it out. 38 For example, the way light fell through the windows in my kitchen, the sound of birds outside my office, the faces of strangers on the street. I also had conversations — real ones — with people I would otherwise have ignored while scrolling.
The month ended, and I took my smart phone from the drawer. 39 That’s not realistic, and it’s not the point. The point is to use it intentionally rather than habitually. Therefore, I made changes. I turned off all unnecessary alerts. I deleted social media apps from my home screen. Small things, but they add up.
40 I learned that boredom is not an emergency. Those empty moments — waiting, walking, sitting — are not problems to be solved. They are opportunities to be present. They are the spaces where creativity happens, where thoughts form, where we connect with ourselves and the world around us.
A. I noticed things I had been missing for years.
B. Whether to give it a try or not became a question.
C. I didn’t throw it away or promise to give it up forever.
D. I missed the happy moments I had experienced before.
E. I found only the phone’s tiny screen and limited functions.
F. More important than the changes, though, is what I learned.
G. I laughed it off at first but decided to go without mine for a month.

I moved to Portland last spring, knowing no one. To relieve the 41 that filled my quiet apartment, I did what many newcomers do: I searched online for a local 42 group. “Forest & Friends” promised weekly activities in the Columbia River Gorge. It sounded like a perfect 43 .
On our first group 44 — a moderate trail (小径) to a waterfall viewpoint — my enthusiasm outweighed my caution. Halfway up, I 45 on a loose rock and hurt my ankle. A sharp pain shot through me, and I 46 to the ground, embarrassed and frustrated.
What happened next was far from what I had expected. The group’s leader, a woman named Sam, 47 the hike immediately. But more 48 , not a single person turned back toward the trailhead. Instead, the dozen 49 I had met only an hour earlier gathered around. Someone 50 a medical bandage. Another offered water and snacks. As we waited for help, we sat on the forest floor. We shared 51 — not just about hiking, but about our reasons for moving here, our jobs, our hopes. Laughter 52 under the tree, my aching ankle momentarily forgotten.
I had joined the group 53 beautiful scenery and perhaps a polite acquaintance or two. I left that day with something far more 54 . The physical trail was steep, but the human impulse (冲动) to connect, to stay beside someone in difficulty, was a powerful, leveling force. It was a vivid 55 that we are never truly alone, even on the most difficult paths life sets before us.

Forty-nine young professionals from different countries recently completed a 10-day training program in China, 56 (explore) rural revitalization practices in Yunnan. The program, co-launched by China Agricultural University and Tencent, aimed to share China’s experience in rural development with global 57 (young).
During their visit to Mengla County, Yunnan, the 58 (participant) were impressed by the “agri-tourism integration” model in Hebian Village. They learned how Yao ethnic group’s wooden houses 59 (transform) into cozy guesthouses, and how villagers now earn income from rubber tapping, beekeeping, and home-stay management. “We used to think rural areas could only rely on farming,” said Mirembe from Uganda. “But here, culture and nature become treasures — this gives us new ideas 60 our villages.”
They also visited a smart coffee estate in Jinghong, 61 AI and drones are used for pest control and yield prediction. Hakim from Indonesia, who runs a coffee workshop, noted: “China’s way of connecting small farmers to big markets via live-streaming is eye-opening. We can adapt this to sell our Indonesian coffee 62 (global).”
A key takeaway was China’s focus on “farmer-centered development”. In Manluanzhan Village, the group saw how 63 (abandon) water towers were turned into cafes, and how local villagers lead decision-making for tourism projects. “China doesn’t just build pretty villages — it empowers people to own the development,” said Mumbi from Kenya.
The program ended with a 64 (commit) to apply these lessons at home. As Tanzanian participant Aboli put it: “China’s rural revitalization isn’t a copy-paste model, 65 a mindset of using local strengths. That’s what we need to take back.”

Jake was 12, and words had always been his worst enemy. In class, he stuttered (口吃) over sentences when called on; his worksheets came back covered in red marks for misspellings. The joking was constant — kids called him “slow” or “stupid” in the hallway.
Jake stopped trying to keep up, skipping homework after school. His only escape was taking apart old toy cars and remote controls, then putting them back together — sometimes even better than before. It was the only thing that made him feel smart, even if no one else noticed.
One afternoon, as he sat on the sidewalk outside his school, fixing a neighbor’s broken drone, a voice interrupted his focus. “That’s some impressive work you’ve got there.”
Jake looked up to see Mrs. Henderson, the fifth-grade teacher who lived next to the school. He tensed up, ready to grab the drone and run — he didn’t need another person to laugh at him. But Mrs. Henderson sat down beside him, her eyes soft, and asked him to explain how he’d fixed the drone’s motor.
For the first time in years, Jake talked without feeling self-conscious. He chatted about how he could “feel” what was wrong with a machine just by touching it. Mrs. Henderson listened carefully, nodding along, then she smiled. “You’re not a slow learner, Jake,” she said. “You’re a different kind of learner. Your gift is in your hands — you’re a born engineer.”
She told him about the regional robotics competition in three months, where teams built robots to complete tasks. Jake shook his head immediately. “I can’t,” he said. “I can’t read the rules, and I’ll let the team down.”
But Mrs. Henderson refused to let him quit. She offered to read the competition guidelines aloud to him, translating the technical jargon (行话) into simple terms. She talked the school into letting him use the science lab after hours to build his robot. And she even recruited (招募) two classmates — Mia, who loved coding, and Leo, who was good at building structures — to join his team.

Text 1
M: How about playing basketball this Saturday
W: I’d love to, but I hurt my ankle last week. Maybe we could go to that new gallery instead
M: Sounds good to me! Should we grab brunch before heading there
Text 2
W: Are you coming to play chess during the lunch break, Ben
M: Not today. Mrs. Carlton wants all the volunteers to gather in the conference room at 12:30 p.m.
W: OK. Just make sure not to miss our singing practice this afternoon.
Text 3
W: Honey, why were you on the phone so long
M: I was talking to my classmates. Tomorrow’s bike trip — they wanted to ride their bikes over some hills. I said it was too dangerous.
W: You did the right thing. You really make me proud.
Text 4
M: Well, here we are. Can you see why we should do something about this plant
W: Definitely! If it grows any further, nobody will be able to go through the path.
M: And someone could get hurt by the sharp branches!
Text 5
W: I used to study literature. But I changed my major to something related to people’s personalities.
M: Interesting. Those skills could help in sales, marketing, or other business jobs.
W: True, but I’m studying this to help people talk through problems.
Text 6
W: John, could you help clean up the kitchen
M: Can I do it later I need to do all my homework, tidy my room, and clean my football boots for tomorrow’s game.
W: OK. But why are you still here
M: I’m having a rest.
W: Well, when will you get it all done if you don’t start now There’s an old saying that goes, “Don’t put off tomorrow what can be done today.”
M: I guess you’re right… OK, I’ll do the kitchen cleaning now.
Text 7
M: Debbie!
W: Paul! How was the flight
M: Tiring! Mom and Dad asked me to bring you a load of heavy gifts, including a full bag of candy. Here you are!
W: Oh…thanks!
M: Do you even eat candy anymore Look at you! You’re half the size you were when you lived at home.
W: I know. I’ve dropped two dress sizes without trying! Living here just makes it so much easier to work out regularly.
M: Really
W: Yeah, it’s all part of the Chinese government’s national fitness program. It encourages people to keep fit. They run regular fitness events, and there are public workout areas all over the city.
M: Wow, so it’s just built into your day That’s so cool! I try to get to the pool regularly, but it’s not always easy after a long day. I’ll keep trying!
Text 8
W: So, how was your museum trip
M: Honestly, Mom, I take back everything I said about museums. I thought we’d just spend the day staring at information boards and listening to boring talks. But it wasn’t like that at all!
W: No
M: They had interactive touch tables. It allowed us to “hold” computer models of ancient objects. I could turn them and look at them up close.
W: Oh, cool!
M: And the Natural History section had intelligent stations which brought dinosaurs to life. It was a bit scary but amazing.
W: It sounds like it!
M: But the best part was the virtual tour of the Great Wall. I learned so much that way.
W: That’s the best way for you to learn.
M: I know! It’s similar to the VR system our school uses. But we only get to use it for half an hour in our science class every Wednesday and Friday.
Text 9

Hey, everyone! This is Jenny with morning announcements. First, mark your calendars for this week’s “Bring Your Parents to School Day” on Wednesday! This event was created by our headmaster, with help from teachers in the Business and Career Planning Departments. Originally, it was designed to introduce professional opportunities to students. But over time, it’s grown bigger. It also brings our school’s community together and shows parents our daily routines. This time, we want your parents to experience a normal school day, just like you do. So, we’ll kick off this event by inviting your parents to sit with you during your normally scheduled classes. After that, there will be special speeches and career advice sessions. Finally, the event will conclude with smaller group sessions. We won’t organize them by class or grade. Instead, we’ll have different groups for science, law, business, arts, etc. Whatever your interest, you’ll surely find something useful and inspiring! If you have questions, stop by the student government office! Next, before we talk about the upcoming Christmas and New Year holidays, let’s go over things happening today.

Parcel lockers, also called smart lockers or package lockers, are secure, automated storage units in centralized locations. They are revolutionizing how goods can be delivered and received. People can pick up a package from a locker at a time that suits them, in a convenient location near their residence or workplace.
Yet for all their advantages, parcel lockers are still far from being widely adopted by online shoppers. Many consumers still opt to have their online shopping parcels delivered directly to their homes instead of using parcel lockers, simply because they don’t know this delivery option when placing online orders and thus have never tried it.
Even though locker usage is still low, companies and government agencies hope more shoppers will try it as they learn about the benefits. Using parcel lockers can help reduce traffic from delivery vehicles and lower our carbon footprint, which is better for the Earth. So, why not give easyLocker a try
An islandwide parcel collection network for your delivery and pick-up solutions. How to use easyLocker ● Select easyLocker as your delivery option. ● Wait for notification that your parcel is ready. ● Go to the selected easyLocker location. ● Enter your unique access code sent to you. ● Collect your parcel from the locker and go!
21. What keeps some shoppers from trying a parcel locker
A. Inconvenient locations. B. Environmental concerns.
C. Inefficiency of delivery. D. Unawareness of its presence.
22. What must users of easyLockers do
A. Collect their parcels within 24 hours. B. Key in a unique access code to get parcels.
C. Leave the locker door open for the next user. D. Inform the deliveryman of their home address.
23. Who are the targeted readers of the text
A. Locker producers. B. Delivery personnel.
C. Online purchasers. D. Potential investors.
B
For most of my life, I treated taste as fixed. There were things I liked and things I didn’t, and that was that.
Sticking to that belief had left me in a bit of a standstill. I stopped making time for new hobbies or trying anything new. Salsa lessons No, thanks. Interactive theatre Not for me. But my automatic “no” to anything that “wasn’t my thing” only kept me trapped in the same routine of work, sleep, eating, and that left me feeling listless and a little empty.
So, in an effort to break the boredom, I began to question whether my taste was fixed at all, or whether it might be something I could train. I had read that children need 8 to 15 tries to accept a new food. Why shouldn’t the same principle apply to social activities for adults
I started small. When a friend invited me to a book club, I resisted the urge to dismiss it, despite my longstanding dislike of reading due to dyslexia (阅读障碍症). But I went anyway. I listened to the first book on audio book and, to my surprise, enjoyed the discussion and the people. Now I spend mornings reading. Then came music and performance: jazz clubs, line dancing, contemporary performance — all things I had previously ignored.
Trying things you thought you wouldn’t enjoy, I found, became oddly addictive. I didn’t love everything straight away, but I stopped saying no before I had even begun. Most recently, I tried out my local library’s chess club. I was easily 30 years younger than everyone else, but that didn’t matter. Honestly, there was nothing quite like being wiped off the board by someone who had been playing since before your parents met. I felt more of a connection with others there than at any organized twenty-something social event I’ve attended.
Putting “try something new” in my diary once a week broke up the work-commute-collapse cycle I had accidentally built my life around. Now I simply count to five, approach the friendliest-looking person with a “hello”, and any initial awkwardness quickly fades. Next week Who knows. Maybe magic lessons. Maybe life drawing. Maybe both.
24. How did the author’s fixed idea affect her
A. It simplified her daily routine. B. It left her more time for work.
C. It flattened her life into dullness. D. It spared her unwanted socializing.
25. Why did the author accept her friend’s invitation to a book club
A. To make a conscious shift in her life. B. To revisit a former interest in reading.
C. To meet her friend’s repeated requests. D. To occupy a blank in her personal calendar.
26. How did the author feel when losing the chess game
A. Totally relieved. B. Slightly puzzled.
C. Rather embarrassed. D. Somewhat delighted.
27. What message does the author try to convey
A. Learn to say no. B. Break out of your shell.
C. Look before you leap. D. Let go of the past.
C
Chaotan One, the world’s first commercial power generator that uses supercritical carbon dioxide (sCO ), has begun operations in China. This achievement breaks a century-old tradition of using steam for power generation, marking a major improvement in efficiency.
The invention of the steam engine was a first step towards the Industrial Revolution that changed the world. Over the years, the engine’s efficiency was further improved through different designs and fuels; however, the medium for doing work remained the same — steam.
Scientists seeking further improvements in power efficiency noticed that a significant portion of energy is wasted generating steam to drive turbines (涡轮机). Water needs to be boiled first and needs to undergo a phase change to generate steam. Scientists have been looking for a better medium to replace steam.
They found this in sCO . CO exists as a gas at room temperature and can be cooled to form dry ice by reducing pressure and lowering temperature. When temperature is raised to 31°C, and pressure is increased to 7.37 MPa, CO enters its supercritical state, where it exhibits properties of both a liquid and a gas. In applications such as moving a turbine, this is extremely useful since the gas-like state offers less resistance while the liquid-like state provides greater push power.
The power generation process works like this: The CO is first pressurized into a supercritical state. Then the sCO passes through a heat exchanger, absorbing heat from an external heat source, and its temperature rises to 400 — 600℃ with a substantial increase in internal energy. After that, it enters a turbine and expands rapidly, driving it to move at a high speed and transforming thermal (热的) energy into mechanical energy, which is then further turned into electrical energy for output. The CO remains in a supercritical state throughout the entire process, with no phase change loss.
The success of the Chaotan One will likely start a new era in power generation, using CO as a medium and bypassing the need to transform water into steam.
28. What does the author intend to do in paragraph 2
A. Highlight the value of steam. B. Applaud the past contributions.
C. Outline the Industrial Revolution. D. State the background of a new discovery.
29. What is the biggest problem with steam power generation
A. Energy-intensive. B. Labor-demanding. C. Noise-producing. D. Money-consuming.
30. What plays a key role in the high efficiency of Chaotan One
A. The durability of turbines. B. The quick commercialization of generators.
C. The easy availability of CO . D. The continuity of CO ’s supercritical state.
31. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. Unpredictable Changes of CO B. Polarized Views on Chaotan One
C. A Pioneering sCO Power Generator D. A Breakthrough in Steam Engine
D
We’ve all seen this happen in a science-fiction movie: The super heroes jump into a shaky spaceship and escape the bad guys by flying through the asteroid (小行星) belt, where huge rocks fall and spin so close that the crew has to duck and dive to avoid being broken into pieces. It’s exciting, but it’s wrong: In our solar system, the odds are pretty good that you could stand on the surface of an asteroid and not even be able to see another.
Yet they do interact if given enough time. Even in the main asteroid belt between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter, crashes are ineluctable. And when two space rocks go “crash” in the main belt, big impacts blow lots of asteroid fragments (碎片) out into space.
In many cases, these fragments stay on much the same orbital path as the parent asteroid, although they gradually separate from it because of slight speed differences. After thousands of years, some fragments might be clear across the Sun, but their distance from the Sun and the shape and direction of their orbits remain similar. Such conserved features are collectively called an asteroid’s orbital elements. The groupings sharing orbital elements are identified as “families”, which are named after the largest asteroid in the group.
Studying asteroids by focusing on their families can help us make a good guess about what properties a newly-found one has if it belongs to a better-studied family. Care must be taken, though. Some very large asteroids have differentiated materials in the center and on the surface, so confirming those guesses usually requires taking spectra, the time-consuming process of breaking an object’s incoming light into individual colors to reveal its composition.
It’s more than a mere academic exercise to find this particular branch of an asteroid family tree: Some asteroids are potentially risky, meaning they could crash with Earth some time in the distant future. If we know how they find their way to the inner solar system from the main belt to pose threats in the first place, we can defend our planet from future worrisome asteroids.
32. What is the author’s view on the scene in the sci-fi movie
A. It goes against the established facts. B. It overstates the super heroes’ role.
C. It downplays the special visual effects. D. It fuels people’s interest in the asteroid.
33. Which is closest in meaning to the underlined word “ineluctable” in paragraph 2
A. Unavoidable. B. Uncommon. C. Incredible. D. Invisible.
34. What is paragraph 3 mainly about
A. The definition of orbital elements. B. The formation of asteroid families.
C. The naming rule of asteroid groups. D. The moving pattern of asteroid fragments.
35. What can be inferred about the study of asteroid family
A. It is a high-risk practice. B. It is built on assumptions.
C. Its value can’t be overstated. D. Its coverage needs to be expanded.

What’s the first thing you notice when you step into a museum Is it the long-faded colors of ancient artifacts or the sounds of visitors discussing what they see 36 Some locations might even offer an eatable treat inspired by an ancient recipe. Museums allow us to indirectly experience the past by tapping into our primary senses — sight, hearing, touch, taste. 37
“Representations of the past are often scentless (无气味的), but smell probably played a huge role in many historical realities,” says Barbara Huber, an archaeologist in Germany. 38 She and her workmates tracked down some molecular (分子的) remains that can let us smell the past. Through trial and error, they created Scent of the Afterlife, a mix of scent that would have accompanied mummification processes in ancient Egypt.
“ 39 One of the reasons is that it is incredibly hard to study. The scents and smells in the past were already gone before archaeologists could come and investigate the sites,” says Huber. Luckily, new chemical and biomolecular methods in archaeology have kind of reopened the door to continue to study these things.
“These molecules that we detect can tell us a lot about ancient materials. At the same time, when we reconstruct them like we did with Scent of the Afterlife, we can bring a piece of the past to visitors today. 40 ” says Huber. “If you enter a room and can somehow smell how it must have smelled in a mummification room in ancient Egypt, you’re experiencing the history in a different way. History isn’t something we only see.”
A. It can also enrich our understanding of smells.
B. However, more often than not, smell is missing.
C. Smell has long been ignored in studying the past.
D. Maybe there’s a copy of a sculpture you can touch.
E. And the exhibit in the museum is not just a displayed object.
F. This “aha moment” changed her attitude towards the research.
G. The obvious absence of scent in the study of history inspired her.

Before I was hired, I was told part of my job in the pickle (腌菜) shop was to keep the conversation going with customers. I’d never been talkative, so I lied on my application, 56 (claim) I was entirely at ease talking to strangers.
Fake (假装) it till you make it and that’s 57 I did. A year later, I had no problem easing into conversations with customers. I smiled, asked about their day and made 58 (comment) on the great sale. Then I convinced them to buy our pickled garlic.
59 was here that I truly learned what self-esteem is. Previously, I had always pictured it to be 60 quality only possessed by the skinny blonde cheerleaders. I’ve since come to understand a far 61 (broad) definition of it.
Self-esteem is knowing yourself and not being afraid to let it shine. My big smile and loud laugh, which 62 (be) once a source of embarrassment, has become my trademark. Customers like my sincerity — I’m no 63 (robot) salesperson. Self-esteem is also not being completely shut down by a mistake. The other day, a customer told me I was annoying. Prior to working here, I would have broken down, 64 with new confidence, I smiled and apologized, knowing she was the exception, not the rule.
The pickle-shop self-esteem keeps motivating me 65 (excel) in college — two major club involvements and a perfect 4.0 GPA.

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
It came as a shock when the new president of the company where I had worked for 29 years called me to his office one Tuesday morning along with the human resources director (HRD). He looked at me and announced, “We’re planning a retirement luncheon for you this Friday…”
As the chief editor of the company’s travel magazine I had founded some 20 years earlier, I had received nothing but glowing reports on every review. But the truth is, I was 78 years old and highly paid. I suspect the company felt that it was time to bring in a younger person at a lower salary in this period of economic stress.
“Are there no other jobs in the company where I might fit in ” I asked.
“None at your salary,” the HRD assured me.
“I heard you were looking for a writer in travel promotions,” I continued.
“You wouldn’t be interested in that. The pay is one third of your current salary.”
“I’ll think about it,” I said. “I don’t really care about the money. I just enjoy working.”
The new president looked visibly shocked. He exchanged questioning glances with the HRD, then folded up his notebook and stood up.
“Cancel the Friday luncheon,” he said.
Walking out of the office, I seriously considered applying for the travel promotions job, but did I really want to take a low-paid job after so many years at the top, just for the joy of working If not here, maybe somewhere else. But who would hire a 78-year-old editor
Overcome with the anxiety, I suddenly thought of the sentence my mother quoted to me: “Man has infinite (无限的) capabilities, limitless opportunities and ceaseless occupation.” Age played no part in that quotation. I only needed to know that I had infinite intelligence and limitless ideas and the right opportunity would present itself to me.
I wouldn’t wait for that opportunity to come to me.

Good morning! I feel honored to deliver a speech today. Does listening to music disturb our study Absolutely not! Actually, it can serve as a fantastic study companion.
When I’m wrestling with tough problems, soft background music tends to ease my tension, blocking out random distractions. Whenever I get lost in their catchy tunes and vibrant lyrics, it’s like opening a door to a linguistic and cultural wonderland. This not only improves my language skills but also gives me a deeper understanding of Western culture.
Personally, music doesn’t merely make studying less of a chore; it transforms studying into a more enjoyable and fruitful experience. Let’s embrace music and make learning a truly delightful journey. Thank you for listening!

One possible version:
I started looking for writing opportunities online. Looking through countless job ads, I hunted for any role related to travel writing. Next, I wrote up a polished resume, highlighting my 20 years as chief editor and glowing reviews that spoke to my expertise. Rather than hiding my age, I embraced it wholeheartedly, claiming it gifted me with unique insights. Filling out applications to various travel-related magazines, I felt a mix of expectation and nervousness — hoping to stand out yet fearing age would be a barrier. Still, I sent off dozens, refusing to let 78 hold me back, all because my mom’s words kept pushing me forward.
Luckily, Marco Polo, a travel magazine, arranged an interview for me. During the interview, I passionately shared my editorial vision and lifelong dedication to travel writing, which struck a deep chord with the interviewer. “Your insight and depth are exactly what we have been looking for,” the editor noted, clearly valuing perspective over age. Deeply impressed, he offered me the position of travel columnist on the spot. Overjoyed, I accepted, feeling a renewed sense of purpose. Now, at 78, with my enthusiasm reignited, I continued to devote myself to the craft of writing, which echoed my mother’s wisdom: true occupation knows no age.

It was back in 1990, and I was on the east coast of Spitsbergen, the largest island of Svalbard, a Norwegian archipelago. Svalbard has a high concentration of polar bears in the spring, gathering for the mating season. When a bear is hungry, it essentially becomes a meat-seeking missile — it can smell you from many miles away. If you’re unwashed in a dark tent out on the floating sea ice, you can look and smell like an oversized walrus (海象).
For several nights, I stayed alert and kept waking up to what I thought was the sound of a bear in the snow. Checking was tough — my tent was coated in ice, which would fall when I moved. Touching the outside of my sleeping bag too long could cause frostbite. The easiest way to check was to unzip the tent, stay in my sleeping bag, and peek out for a 360-degree view. It was cold, uncomfortable — and often pointless.
I made porridge in my mother’s old saucepan and left the camping stove on to melt snow for my Thermos. When I unzipped the tent, I was shocked to see a full-grown polar bear just an arm’s length away, I had a loaded gun, but it was behind me — reaching for it risked an attack. So my hand instinctively reached for the nearest combat-ready thing I could see: the porridge encrusted saucepan. I hit the bear hard on the head with the pan. It flinched, tilted its head, and seemed confused — the loud bang startled us both. Then it turned and ran off into the distance.
As a young adventurer I used to feel it was me against my surroundings, but then I realized I could work with nature and bears have more of a right to be there than me. There have been times, alone in the Arctic, when I have felt more in tune with the world than anywhere else. It breaks my heart that, because of the rapidly melting sea ice, I have witnessed a wilderness habitat that others may never see.
24. What does “a meat-seeking missile” suggest about polar bears
A. Their explosive physical power. B. Their deadly hunting accuracy.
C. Their ability to see prey clearly. D. Their seasonal migration instincts.
25. Why did the author detail the tent-checking procedure
A. To show his survival skills. B. To explain his fear of bears.
C. To illustrate his sleeping problems. D. To highlight an unexpected encounter.
26. Why did the author choose the saucepan to fight the bear
A. It was within easy reach. B. It could make loud noises.
C. It wouldn’t hurt the bear. D. It could surprise the bear.
27. What transformation did the author undergo over time
A. From fearing bears to protecting them. B. From hating adventures to loving them.
C. From opposing nature to cooperating with it. D. From a beginner to a famous explorer.
C
In the age of large language models (LLMs) and generative AI, we are witnessing an unprecedented transformation in how knowledge is produced, spread and consumed.
LLMs, we are told, make us more efficient, simplify complex work, automate boring tasks and allow us to focus on what matters. But as we feel surprised at their capabilities, a pressing concern emerges: Are these models genuinely boosting efficiency, or are they eroding our capacity for independent thought, judgment and critical reflection
Efficiency is not a neutral term. The current narrative around generative AI treats efficiency as progress. It suggests that the faster something is done, the better. But faster is not always better. And not everything that can be automated should be.
The popular belief is that LLMs allow humans to assign repetitive work to machines and reserve their energy for more reflective tasks, but the opposite is often true. As the more intellectual labor — writing, summarizing and decision-making, for example — is handed over to AI, the less we will engage with it ourselves. Instead of reserving our thoughtfulness for higher tasks, we will increasingly lose the opportunities, and perhaps even the ability, to think critically.
So what do we really mean by “efficiency” If it means shortening the time it takes to write a report, perhaps we have succeeded. But if it means replacing the intellectual effort that creates depth, coherence and reflection, then it’s not a gain; it’s a loss. The moment we accept LLMs as thought substitutes, rather than thought aids, we begin to worsen the very conditions under which human reasoning thrives: questioning, dialogue, uncertainty and contradiction.
There is no turning back the presence of LLMs in our lives. But we can choose how to live with them. The question is not whether they will think for us, but whether we will let them define what it means to think at all. Efficiency, in the true sense, should not be about doing more with less thought. It should be about doing better, with deeper attention, stronger ethics and sustained human insight.
28. What does the underlined word “eroding” in paragraph 2 mean
A. Changing. B. Improving. C. Destroying. D. Expanding.
29. What do LLMs lead to according to paragraph 4
A. We get more reflective labor. B. We do independent thinking less.
C. We engage in more repetitive tasks. D. We reduce our work efficiency indeed.
30. What does the author advocate about our using LLMs
A. Putting efficiency first. B. Reducing intellectual effort.
C. Achieving more with less time. D. Increasing human engagement.
31. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text
A. To describe the fast development of LLMs.
B. To reflect on the negative effects of LLMs.
C. To question the necessity of pursuing efficiency.
D. To challenge the traditional definition of efficiency.
D
Many people who spot a rubber duck on a programmer’s desk might assume it is just a toy or a simple decoration. In fact, the rubber duck serves as a practical tool to help solve problems. Programmers explain code or problems in detail to the rubber duck. By describing the problem aloud step by step, they gain a clearer understanding of the code’s flow and structure, leading to better problem-solving. This method is called “rubber duck debugging (调试)”.
The term “rubber duck debugging” was first introduced in the 1999 book The Pragmatic Programmer by Andrew Hunt and David Thomas. It originated in a practice among programmers of explaining their code problems to objects to find mistakes more easily. Since then, the concept has become widely recognized in programming culture, inspiring similar debugging techniques and discussions in software development communities.
While rubber duck debugging originated for programmers, the concept can be applied in many different contexts. Research by US scholars Logan Fiorella and Richard Meyer shows that when students learn the material in a lesson as if they were going to teach it to others, they develop a deeper and more persistent understanding of the material. Teaching others forces us to break the material down into conceptual pieces, integrate it with our existing knowledge, and organize it in logical ways. That’s why our little yellow friend is so helpful: In explaining the problem aloud to your rubber duck, you are teaching it as well.
Though the term “rubber duck debugging” specifically refers to explaining the code to a rubber duck, the actual presence of a rubber duck is not crucial to the process — any object or even a person can serve as a substitute for it. What matters is externalizing your thoughts and clearly explaining the problem aloud. By adopting the technique, you can gain new insights and perspectives, improve your problem-solving abilities, and overcome challenges more effectively.
So, next time you’re stuck on a problem, try turning to a little yellow duck.
32. Why do programmers use rubber ducks
A. To decorate their workplace. B. To relieve their work pressure.
C. To help fix coding issues efficiently. D. To assist in simplifying coding tasks.
33. What does paragraph 2 mainly tell us about rubber duck debugging
A. Its major limitations. B. Its broad applications.
C. Its background information. D. Its operational procedures.
34. What principle does “rubber duck debugging” indicate
A. Analyzing mistakes is a great way to improve.
B. Externalizing thoughts can enhance our learning.
C. Detailed explanations can improve concentration.
D. Logical thinking can help solve problems effectively.
35. Which of the following would be the best title
A. Rubber Duck Debugging: A Programmer’s Trick
B. To Teach Is to Learn: The Secret of a Little Rubber Duck
C. The History and Application of a Programming Method
D. The Importance of a Rubber Duck in Teaching

Reading can improve literacy and language skills. However, research shows that reading fiction books might have several other benefits for teens.
Reading fiction books might help teenagers develop their understanding of “who they are”. 36 Our identities are made up of our personalities, experiences, values, goals, thoughts, and beliefs, and help us understand why we think, feel, and behave in certain ways. When we emotionally connect with a character in a book and feel immersed in a story, our own identities temporarily expand to include the thoughts, feelings, and experiences of the characters we are connecting with. In this way, fiction books provide an opportunity to explore different possibilities for ourselves, and to reflect upon the parts of our identities which are important to us. 37
Fiction books might also help teenagers to develop their understanding of other people and their ability to take others’ perspectives. 38 It develops throughout our teenage years as our social worlds become increasingly complex. Connecting with fictional characters might help readers to strengthen their perspective taking skills.
Connections with texts can also help readers navigate difficult emotions and understand their experiences. 39 Teens have to navigate the transition to high school, changing relationships with their peers, increased extra-curricular commitments, and are generally becoming more aware of the social and political world around them. Teens say reading gives them an opportunity to escape from their everyday lives.
40 While we often focus on attainment outcomes, reading also helps teens develop their self-understanding and understanding of others, and can support their emotional well-being at a particularly unrestful period of life. With the teen years being a particularly vulnerable time for reading habits, it’s important we support teens in finding and accessing books they enjoy to help them experience all these benefits.
A. Perspective taking is an important social skill.
B. Reading is a process of personal growth.
C. Fictional stories present identities vastly different from our own.
D. Reading can have numerous benefits for teenagers.
E. The teenage years are often a period of great change.
F. This process is important for teens to learn who they are.
G. Fictional characters help readers explore their own identities.

Like many people, I decided to get a new iPhone about a month ago. My old phone was clearly outdated. Its battery life was terrible. I made an 41 at Verizon, expecting a quick visit. It wasn’t.

Lucy turned on the TV. The house was quiet because her son, Patrick, was on a school camping trip. She was surfing through TV channels when Patrick’s teacher phoned her.
“Hi, Mr Randall,” Lucy said. “Is everything okay ”
“I’m so sorry, Miss Stevens,” Mr Randall wept. “I don’t know how this happened, but Patrick is lost!”
Lucy’s heart thumped like a drum.
“What...” Lucy nervously asked. “What do you mean, Mr Randall How could he get lost ”
“I’m not sure. I already called the police, and they’re currently out there, searching the woods.”
Lucy stood. “I’m heading out there right now!”
She fetched one of the old hiking backpacks, climbed into her car and then set off.
By the time she arrived at the campsite, the sun was setting. “When did Patrick get lost ” Lucy asked as she strode toward Mr Randall.
“I know Patrick was still with us when we stopped for lunch.” Mr Randal sighed. “But I’ m not sure when he got separated from the group. When we returned to the campsite, he was missing.” Lucy looked at the children moving among the tents. Thinking of her son out in the forest by himself brought tears to her eyes.
Lucy hiked and camped frequently when she was younger. She returned to her car and fetched the supplies she’d packed. She had brought a flashlight, food, and water, in addition to the multi-tool and a basic first-aid kit in her backpack.
It was very dark. Lucy didn’t want to go in there alone, but Patrick’s safety depended on her. She turned on her flashlight and set off along a narrow path leading through the trees.
The deeper Lucy walked into the forest, the more anxious she became. Lucy shivered with cold as she searched. What’s worse, her flashlight ran out of batteries hours later. She realized now that it was safer to wait for dawn and continue then. Lucy drank water and ate some food while she made a fire to warm up.

As soon as the dawn broke, Lucy continued to search the dark forest. She called out Patrick’s name loudly, her voice trembling with worry and love. She stepped carefully over branches and rocks, following the small path she had discovered the night before. Tired and hungry as she was, she never stopped moving. The hope of finding her son kept her going. Suddenly, a thin wisp of smoke rising in the distance caught her attention. Her eyes lit up immediately, and she rushed towards it as fast as she could.
The smoke was coming from an old cabin by a still lake. She pushed the door open gently and found Patrick sitting quietly by a small fire, safe and unhurt. He had found the cabin and stayed there to keep warm. The moment Patrick saw Lucy, he jumped up and ran into her arms, crying happily. Lucy held him tightly, tears of relief running down her face. She gave him food and water, and then they walked back to the campsite together. Everyone was overjoyed to see Patrick return safely.

A
This chart shows global GDP per capita, adjusted for inflation. Looking at the world economy from this perspective, it is the steadiness of this change that stands out. Average incomes per person have risen at a fairly constant pace of roughly 2% per year, interrupted only by the 2008 financial crisis and the 2020 pandemic.
A definition of economic growth that can be found in many publications is “an increase in the amount of goods and services produced per head of the population over a period of time.” There is one example of how growth is possible and what economic growth is. A few centuries ago, the only way to produce a book was for a scribe (抄写员) to copy it word-for-word by hand. Book production was a slow process; it took a scribe about eight months of daily work to produce a single copy of the Bible.
It was so laborious that only very few books were produced. But then, in the 15th century, Johannes Gutenberg developed a new production technology, and it changed things dramatically. Instead of spending months to produce one book, a worker was now able to produce several books a day. Books, which were previously only available to a tiny group, became available to more and more people.
Actually, national economies change. Some economies slow; many others grow and more generally, some major political shifts take place. Yet when all of this is combined, the global average follows a remarkably smooth upward trend.
21. What’s the most striking feature of world economy
A. The slowdown of global growth after the 2008 financial crisis.
B. The rapid growth of global growth due to technological progress.
C. The permanent interruption to global growth by the 2020 pandemic.
D. The relative consistency of global growth over the last three decades.
22. How does the author explain the concept of economic growth
A. By citing an expert. B. By listing definitions.
C. By giving an example. D. By providing statistics.
23. What is the key factor that led to the dramatic change in book production
A. The emergence of workers. B. The printing press technology.
C. The wide availability of paper. D. The growing number of scribes.
B
Christmas time with kids is filled with warm traditions: Listening to Christmas music while decorating the tree, going to look at Christmas lights with hot chocolate in hand, and taking the kids to visit Santa Claus. Well, delete that last one. At least for my family.
Parents think about how fun it will be at first to take their kids to see Santa, or tell them gifts are on their way from Santa, but this comes with a series of annoying questions about Mr. Claus like how he makes it to all the houses in one night, as well as the broken trust after revealing the truth. I didn’t want that.
You may think that our Christmases were rigid, stuffy, and without any warmth or magic. I don’t think so. Part of that is due to what I taught my kids about Christmas. Instead of telling them Santa is real, I told them it most likely has its origins in St. Nicholas, a man who was kind and generous to children in flix’s 2021 movie “A Boy Called Christmas” is a useful tool for helping kids connect Christmas myths and traditions with reality while keeping the spirit of generosity alive.
The month of December is filled with movie and game nights, plays and concerts. These family traditions have added flavor to my kids’ entire childhood. Hopefully, they know now that it’s the time with family, doing special things together, that creates the magic and that my love for them goes well beyond just one day — and that magic, wonder and awe can happen any time with family, especially if we remain generous and grateful.
My kids are older now, and they’re glad they didn’t believe the myth of Santa. It was one fewer bad memory for them, one fewer blow to their innocent childhood.
24. What is special for the author’s family’s Christmas time
A. Appreciating Christmas lights. B. skipping visiting Santa Claus.
C. Unlocking secrets of Santa Claus. D. Helping Santa Claus deliver gifts.
25. What does the author want to convey to her kids in paragraph3
A. Generosity comes from reality. B. Warmth counts to Christmas.
C. St. Nicholas is an unsung hero. D. Santa myth will break kids’ trust.
26. What does the author intend to show by mentioning “the magic of Christmas”
A. To prove that the Santa myth is not necessary for Christmas.
B. To explain why family entertainments are popular in December.
C. To show that Christmas is the most magical festival for families.
D. To stress that shared family time is the core of Christmas’ charm.
27. Which of the following can best describe the author
A. Rigid but caring. B. Generous and devoted.
C. Distant but unconventional. D. Thoughtful and insightful.
C
Pushing my cart through the grocery store, I look at the other shoppers. Do they know that nearly 70% of what’s on the shelves is overly processed According to a recent report by the US Centers for Disease Control, ultra-processed foods (UPFs) now make up 53% of the average American adult’s diet — and 62% of a child’s.
Studies link just 10% more daily calories from UPFs to sharply higher risks: a 50% increase in heart-related death, and 55% greater chance of obesity (肥胖). Yet despite reading countless studies and learning from experts, I still find UPFs nearly impossible to avoid. Walk with me down the rows of snack shelves, and I’ll explain why.
Overflowing with sugar, salt and fat, the colorfully packaged candies, cookies and chips, despite being calorie-loaded and nutritionally bad for us, are deliciously addictive. Experts say the food industry engineered its recipes to target our “bliss point” — creating the absolute yummiest combinations of ingredients to make it nearly impossible to “eat just one.”
Apart from the deliciousness of those snacks, the majority of other UPFs, such as ready-to-eat meals and instant mixes, contain artificial flavors and preservatives. The convenience of such long-lasting, affordable foods is undeniable: we can make meals without stirring sauce for hours over the stove, freeing up time for other parts of life.
“Food companies today have closed off their processing plants,” said Popkin, a researcher from University of South Carolina, “so we can’t clinically compare effects of eating whole corn to deconstructed corn.” Despite growing evidence of harm, the industry continues marketing UPFs aggressively. “They don’t want to lose their cash cow, so they’re willing to put millions into fighting government restrictions on UPFs as well as funding nutritionists to voice evidence of their harmlessness,” Popkin said.
There is a silver lining, fortunately. In May, the World Health Organization called on scientists worldwide to help set guidelines on UPF consumption. Yes, there will always be junk food. But if the majority of our food could be made fresher and less processed, we’d be on our way to a healthier world.
28. What phenomenon does the author describe in paragraph 1
A. Children eat less UPFs than adults do. B. Shoppers are widely exposed to UPFs.
C. People are concerned about their food. D. Ultra-processed food has become a hit.
29. What do the underlined words “bliss point” in paragraph 3 probably mean
A. Sensory pleasure. B. Mental thrill. C. Shopping motive. D. Nutritional balance.
30. What might food companies try to do according to Popkin
A. Fund opposition to government intervention. B. Open more plants to support clinical studies.
C. Work with nutritionists for healthy products. D. Reduce UPFs marketing to protect business.
31. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. Convenience of Ultra-Processed Foods B. Innovation Behind Ultra-Processed Foods
C. Reasons for Ultra-Processed Foods Trend D. Risks of Ultra-Processed Foods Consumption
D
Fifteen decades ago, Francis Galton first came up with the term “nature versus nurture”, and this debate over the factors shaping human identity has long been a central topic in human sciences. Do our genes determine our life paths, as hereditarians (遗传论者) argue Or are we born as empty paper, shaped merely by the experiences we have in our families and the wider world Today, however, a new branch of science is ready to overturn the debate. Through this new perspective, nature and nurture are hardly separable at all — genes and the environment do not act independently, but instead interact closely and even shape one another in tangible ways.
Genes do not shape our identities merely on their own within our bodies; instead, they function partly by molding the environments we choose or create. A striking finding of this research is that our environment is, in part, shaped by the genes of the people around us. Initial research suggests that your partner’s genes influence your likelihood of depression almost a third as much as your own genes do. A few students with a genetic trend for smoking in a high school seemed to cause smoking rates to skyrocket across the entire grade — even among students who have no direct contact with these students — like a gene-driven wildfire spreading through social networks.
Genes alone aren’t enough to determine these outcomes and neither is environment. Nature and nurture both shape each other, with nature influencing the way we experience nurture and nurture influencing the way our nature expresses itself. The more opportunities and information the environment provides — the more varied environments become — the bigger the role that genetic variation plays in distinguishing us into different groups.
Nature and nurture aren’t separate forces — they’re a M bius strip (莫比乌斯环), endlessly circling back on each other. This interdependence means their interaction is fluid and reciprocal, a core insight of sociogenomics that bridges genetic and social science.
32. Why did the author mention the “nature versus nurture” debate in paragraph 1
A. To emphasize the dominant role of family experiences.
B. To introduce a long-standing core topic in human sciences.
C. To highlight the weakness of early hereditarians’ arguments.
D. To lay a contrastive foundation for a new scientific perspective.
33. What can be inferred from the example of students
A. Smoking behavior spreads mainly through direct persuasion.
B. Genetic tendencies can indirectly change group behavior.
C. School rules fail to control students’ genetic instincts.
D. Only smokers’ friends adopt the same genetic risks.
34. What happens when environments become more diverse according to paragraph 3
A. People rely less on their genetic traits. B. Genetic differences play a smaller role.
C. Genetic differences become more influential. D. Nurture becomes more important than nature.
35. What does the author mean by comparing nature and nurture to a “M bius strip”
A. They depend entirely on physical conditions.
B. They have a one-way influence on each other.
C. They form a complex, continuous cycle of impact.
D. They are two separate parts of human development.

Social media has become an inescapable part of modern life, raising concerns across generations. 36 When we scroll through screens, our brains become hooked on the notifications, whose unpredictable nature makes them more addictive.
This addiction taps into a fundamental human need. We are social beings, hard-wired (固有的) to desire recognition. 37 The constant feedback loop (循环) can turn social approval into a measurable, and often anxious, pursuit.
Given the profound impact of social media, the question of regulation arises. With substances like alcohol, governments impose age limits due to their proven harm to developing minds. 38 Research indicates that it has a distinct influence on young people’s developing brains — even contributing to reduced grey matter.
39 Overcoming addiction should become a choice rather than forced inaction. If social media is unavoidable, is it not a wiser option to equip young people to navigate its challenges rather than shelter them entirely
As developmental psychology suggests, adolescents thrive when allowed to learn from mistakes in a supportive setting. Merely restricting access may fuel curiosity and leave them ill-prepared for digital life. Instead, we would engage with their voices as well as instruct them. 40
A. Its addictive design is the core issue.
B. But a total ban on minors sparks heated debate.
C. The same logic should apply to social media regulation.
D. If so, we are more likely to attain the outcome we all desire.
E. Many teenagers spend over five hours daily on various social platforms.
F. Social media satisfies this by quantifying worth through likes and shares.
G. However, the regulation of social media cannot be completely equal to that of alcohol.

One Monday morning, John Evans, a ragged boy in oversized hand-me-downs and worn-out shoes, shuffled (拖着脚走) into our second-grade class in a small North Carolina town. As the son of migrant apple pickers who barely earned enough to feed their family, he stood awkwardly while Mrs. Parmele introduced him to us. Whispers of disapproval drifted across the room; no one returned his smile, but he kept grinning anyway. I held my breath, hoping he wouldn’t sit next to me—yet the teacher pointed him to the empty desk beside mine, and I looked away to avoid seeming friendly.
By the end of the first week, John was the least popular in the class. I even told my mother it was “his own fault” for “not knowing how to count.” But one day, when he asked to sit with me at lunch, I reluctantly agreed. As I listened to his chatter and watched him eat, I realized our mocking of him was unjustified—he was pleasant to be around and by far the most cheerful boy I knew. We played together on the playground after lunch, and I resolved to be his friend.
That night, I told Mom John’s birthday was the next day, and he would get nothing: no cake, no presents, no celebration. Mother and I both knew that whenever a kid had a birthday, their mom would bring cupcakes and party favors for the class. Between my birthday and my sister’s, Mom had made several such trips over the years. But John’s mother worked all day on the farm, and his special day would likely go unnoticed. Mom kissed me good night and said softly, “I’m sure everything will turn out fine.”
The next morning, I said “Happy birthday” to him. His embarrassed smile showed he was grateful. Yet as the day went on, it seemed his special day would still receive no care at all— no cupcakes, no party favors, nothing but a simple greeting from me. My heart ached for him.

Dear Jason,
How is everything going I’m writing to ask for your advice on my invention for the school AI competition “AI for Health”.
I have designed a small AI device to improve teenagers’ physical and mental health. It can monitor daily exercise, sleep quality and stress levels, and also give helpful suggestions on study and relaxation. Besides, it provides relaxing music and positive messages to keep us in a good mood.
Since you’re good at AI and design, could you please give me some advice I wonder whether its functions are practical and how I can make it better.
Looking forward to your reply.
Yours,
Li Hua

Then from the hallway came a familiar voice singing the birthday song. My mom stood there, holding a box of cupcakes and a bag of party favors, her smile warm and bright. The whole class erupted in “Happy Birthday, John!” He stared in surprise, his eyes wide with disbelief, then tears spilled down his cheeks as he realized someone had cared enough to make his day special. We passed out cupcakes, and for the first time, John laughed happily, surrounded by classmates who were finally seeing him.
The next day, I noticed a change in the other kids. No more whispers or looks away when John spoke. A boy shared his crayons during art class. A girl asked him to join her jump rope game at recess. The ice had broken, and what had started as a small act of kindness had opened the door to real friendship. John wasn’t just the new kid anymore; he was one of us, and I knew that my decision to be his friend had made all the difference.

When I was younger, I couldn’t wait to escape from Ramsgate, the harbor town where I grew up on the Isle of Thanet. It could feel small: the same faces in the same places, and where a new café or gallery was often met with doubt. There was this apparent insistence that life was fine as it was. But for a teenager itching to see more, that lack of curiosity was disheartening.
So I left. I headed north for a four-year academic journey from York to Durham. After university, having played at newspapers, I made the move to London to do it for real. But the reality was tough. I struggled to contribute to various dailies before periods on staff at both magazines and newspapers. In my twenties, I threw myself into city life: sampling Mediterranean restaurants, navigating around on the Tube, and staying out late with friends.
For a while, it was enough. Then it became too much. In and among the sharing plates, I found myself on an unending rat race of moving faster and needing to earn more-just to keep up. Rents in London were pressing, apartments were tiny, yet the dream of owning one felt like a cruel joke.
As I got older, trips back to Thanet opened my eyes to what I had left behind. Mainly, it was the sea. Wide yellow sands and even the touch of salt in the air, ordinary in childhood, suddenly felt appealing. But I also started to miss the beat of small-town life: waving to people on the street, noticing whose garden was overgrown, finding charm even in the pubs I had once dismissed. What’s more, where I’d once hurried to leave, others are now rushing to arrive. Artists, creatives, and technologists have been priced out of London and are pouring to Thanet, bringing new ideas and drive. Now, when I head back home, I feel a mixture of pride and mild wonder: the place I once thought I’d outgrown has had a facelift I wasn’t expecting.
I’ll keep returning to Thanet, with eager willingness. Each visit reminds me that places, like people, can grow without losing their essence. I’ve come to love Thanet as more than just the home I left; it is now the place it continues to become.

Nature words like river, moss and blossom have appeared less frequently in books over the past years. This decline, according to a study by professor Miles Richardson from the University of Derby, mirrors a broader change he has traced through 220 years of records on urbanisation, the loss of wildlife in neighbourhoods, and parents no longer passing on engagement with nature to their children.
The computer modelling in the study also predicts an “extinction of experience”, with future generations continuing to lose an awareness of nature because it is not present in increasingly built-up neighbourhoods, while parents no longer pass on an “orientation” (倾向) towards the natural world. This is consistent with findings from other studies, which identify adult nature connectedness as the strongest predictor of whether a child will become close to nature.
Richardson said that when he tested policy and urban environmental changes in the model he was surprised at the scale of the changes required to restore the connection to nature. Increasing biodiverse green spaces in a city by 30% might look like significant positive progress for wildlife and people but Richardson said his study suggests a city might need to be 10 times greener to turn around declines in nature connection.
Efforts to simply encourage adults to engage with nature are often insufficient for lasting change. More effective are measures that build nature connection from an early age, such as forest schools for young children. Research indicates that government initiatives reshaping early education and urban design must be consistently applied over the next 25 years. Once established, this connection can become self-sustaining.
Richardson said the scale of societal change required might not be as challenging as it appeared. A study on people in Sheffield found that they spent just 4 minutes and 36 seconds on average in natural spaces each day. “Increase that by ten, and people are spending 40 minutes outside every day-that may be enough,” he said. “The key is to make these gains last across generations,” he added.
28. What change has Richardson traced in his study
A. Nature words have disappeared from books. B. People have less direct contact with nature.
C. Urbanisation has damaged wildlife habitats. D. Parents spend more time outdoors with kids.
29. What might cause future generations to have “extinction of experience” in the model
A. They are raised away from nature. B. They can’t adapt to changes in nature.
C. High-rise buildings fill neighbourhoods. D. Schools offer few nature science lessons.
30. What is a most effective solution to the issue according to the text
A. Advancing long-term policies. B. Launching eco-friendly campaigns.
C. Focusing on raising adults’ awareness. D. Enlarging green space in certain areas.
31. Richardson mentioned the study on people in Sheffield to show ______.
A. nature contact varies from city to city B. people’s living habits are hard to change
C. a new way to measure nature time is needed D. small efforts help improve contact with nature
D
Artificial intelligence (AI) researchers have long dreamed of tools to supercharge science-asking novel questions, designing and running experiments. Recently, large language models (LLMs) have made discoveries that some AI developers claim have inched us closer to that future. But how do you test whether an AI model can truly do science
For answers, researchers turn to benchmarks (基准): standardized sets of questions or tasks that help measure an AI’s efficiency and reliability and compare it against other models. But the complexity of science makes assessing their aptitude especially challenging. As Hao Peng, a computer scientist at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, puts it: “Models have all this knowledge. Do they know how to use it "
Dozens of new science-focused benchmarks have emerged over the past year to answer that question, but scientists have yet to settle on a single best approach. One of the most popular, published in Nature, is Humanity’s Last Exam (HLE). It uses 2500 questions drawn from “the frontier of human knowledge” to put LLMs through their paces. One, for example, asks how many types of sensory receptors the human skin contains. “We wanted a diverse dataset that only experts who have been working on a field for a long time can answer,” says Long Phan, a research engineer with the HLE’s developer.
Since the HLE first appeared as a preprint in January 2025, the benchmark has become an important proving ground for LLMs and HLE scores are now a common talking point for AI companies seeking to highlight the capabilities of their products. At the HLE’s launch, the leading developer OpenAI’s ol model won the best score at a mere 8.3%. Earlier this month, Google claimed that its latest reasoning model for science, called Gemini 3 Deep Think, had achieved a new record HLE score of 48.4%.
But some scientists argue that many of the HLE’s questions test for little-known or even useless knowledge, rather than an ability to do meaningful research. A Nature editorial accompanying the HLE’s publication also raised this issue: “We think that more scientists should be asking: What would it take to develop an AI benchmark that truly measures expert-level thinking ”
32. What does the underlined word “aptitude” in paragraph 2 mean
A. Knowledge. B. Performance. C. Intelligence. D. Progress.
33. What does Long Phan stress about HLE
A. Its topic diversity. B. Experts’ involvement in it.
C. The expertise of its dataset. D. Its data-backed popularity.
34. What is paragraph 4 mainly about
A. HLE’s role as a key AI test. B. Companies’ use of HLE.
C. HLE scores of leading AI models. D. The process of HLE’s launch.
35. By sharing its view, the Nature editorial aimed to ______.
A. back the current testing B. express concern over HLE
C. propose a workable solution D. predict future AI benchmarks

Someone makes a statement, and you know it is not true. Most of us can think of those times when we have smiled and nodded, likely to avoid “making waves”. Sometimes, knowing when to stay quiet is the smart choice. 36 But what about the vast number of times when not speaking your truth influences your emotional health Sometimes, silence can quickly backfire and damage your relationships.
When you keep silent repeatedly, it may feel like you are avoiding conflict. 37 We all know that the “bottle it up and implode or explode later” plan does not work well for any of us. Every unspoken thought becomes a brick in the wall that grows between you and the other person.
38 If you consistently nod along passively, others will notice when your actions don’t agree with your words. They may wonder whether you are holding back or not being sincere. If you hold back to avoid hurting feelings or spare tension, the result may be the opposite.
Your view matters. By staying silent, you lose opportunities to express your feelings. 39 But later, if you unearth how you really feel, they may feel betrayed (背叛) that you did not open up about your true feelings earlier on. Continued silence may lead others to assume that you are not interested or that you are emotionally unavailable.
While silence sometimes may feel like caution and be wise, too much of it gets in the way of closeness and trust in relationships. 40
A. You’re actually building it up.
B. The growing doubt leads to distance.
C. Others may trust you because you are honest.
D. Trust comes from honesty more than it does from agreement.
E. Speaking up creates connection and conveys a sense of caring in others.
F. This is especially true when the other person tends to get annoyed easily.
G. Others may think your silence is an agreement with what they are saying.

In my family, Saturday mornings were for dim sum (点心).
“If you want to eat it, you learn to 41 the menu,” my mom would say, handing me a yellow order sheet. I scanned the 42 characters, trying to pick out the ones I knew.
“You need to keep up your language,” she added, “Dim sum is the 43 to family.” Sure enough, every time we ate dim sum at local cha lous, my immigrant (移民的) mother came alive. Usually shy with her broken English, here she told jokes, 44 and natural.

My name is Mae. I’ve always been passionate about exploring and solving problems-whether fixing a broken toy or figuring out how a phone app works. This led me to join our school’s Coding (编程) Club. In our first lesson, Ms. Davis told us that coding is more than writing lines of code. It is about using technology to make life easier for others.
“Your project,” she announced in class one day, “is to create a simple app that solves a real-life problem.” “You have one week to prepare,” She added gently, hoping this would give us enough time to find inspiration and finish the project.
The challenge stayed with me as I walked to my neighbor Mrs. Thompson’s apartment after school. She had invited me for tea, as she often did on Tuesdays. Mrs. Thompson was kind and cheerful, but lately she had been a little forgetful, often misplacing her keys or repeating the same story twice without realizing it. When I arrived, she was in the kitchen.
“Mae! Good timing,” she greeted me warmly, and then stopped, glancing at the kettle. “Did I already boil water for tea ”
I checked the kettle-it was still warm. We laughed about it as I poured water, and soon we were chatting. Our conversation turned to her weekly book club with friends. Mrs. Thompson smiled, talking about her two old friends. Mr. Brown arrived late for the game, and Mrs. Smith failed to bring her glasses twice. “We’re quite a group,” she said.
Then her expression grew thoughtful. “We manage, of course. But sometimes I think-wouldn’t it be nice if something simply reminds us Take medicine. Water the plants. Friday for book club.” She tapped her head with a soft laugh.
Her words sank in. At that moment, an idea formed in my mind. As I stood up to leave, I smiled mysteriously, “Give me a few days, and I’ll bring you a little surprise.”
“Oh I’ll try not to forget that,” she laughed.

第一节
From what Gorky said, I believe true beauty springs from labor and human wisdom. Last summer, I joined a community garden project. At first, I doubted my ability to grow anything. Yet as I dug soil, planted seeds, and watered daily, I witnessed tiny sprouts pushing through earth. My rough hands and sunburned skin felt like badges of honor when we finally harvested fresh tomatoes. That moment taught me: labor changes both land and spirit. The sweetness of those tomatoes came not just from sunshine, but from patience and effort.
第二节
That night, I sat at my desk, notebook open and mind racing with details. I decided to design a gentle reminder app especially for the elderly. I listed simple functions: important dates, daily tasks, and warm notes. I focused on making the words big and the buttons easy to touch. Whenever I felt stuck, I thought of Mrs. Thompson’s kind smile and her wish for something to help her remember. I carefully tested every part again and again, making sure it was simple and helpful. Deep in my heart, I hoped this little app could bring convenience and warmth to her and more elderly people.
A week later, I presented my project to Ms. Davis. I introduced the app’s purpose and showed how it worked. Ms. Davis praised my thoughtful idea and spoke highly of my project. After class, I brought the app to Mrs. Thompson. She was delighted and tried it at once. “This is exactly what I need,” she said happily. Watching her smile, I truly understood what Ms. Davis had meant: coding is not just code, but a way to use technology to care for others.

The first time I went to Europe alone I stayed at a youth hostel. Youth hostels have large dormitory-style rooms with bunk beds (双层床). They’re considerably cheaper than regular hotels. I was in Paris for a week, and I had no idea what to expect. As I was going out to explore the city on my first night, a young Japanese man asked if he could join me. We went to see Notre Dame, and my new friend taught me a Japanese word, “sugoi”, which means “awesome”.
In subsequent stays at youth hostels, I would meet a rich man from New England who was struggling to find meaning in his life and a young African man looking for a girlfriend. I opted to take trains over airplanes for the same reason: On trains, I talked with people from all walks of life — people who often shared their philosophy of life with me.
Meeting people from different backgrounds provides a growth opportunity. You can learn from those people. In fact, one of the great advantages of colleges in the United States is that students meet, work with, and engage in discussions with people from different geographic and cultural backgrounds.
But there is another advantage to this kind of socializing: It is rich in surprises. Like traveling to a new place, where you can’t really know what your experience will be like, meeting random strangers keeps you from falling into lazy expectations. You don’t know whether the people you meet will share your opinions, whether they’ll defer to you or dominate the conversation, or whether they’ll laugh at your jokes or make you laugh.
I think this may be part of the attraction of “blind box” socializing, where people sign up to be matched with strangers for dinner, say, or a hike. When you sign up for such an event, you don’t know what kind of conversations you might have, or how you might interact with the other people who sign up. But that is the point. If you have the chance, you might give it a try — meet someone surprising, but stay safe, of course.
4. What does the author think of his stays at youth hostels
A. Surprising and thrilling. B. Delightful and rewarding.
C. Inconvenient but affordable. D. Stressful but meaningful.
5. Why does the author mention “colleges in the United States” in paragraph 3
A. To support an argument. B. To present an example.
C. To illustrate a rule. D. To highlight a theory.
6. What do the underlined words “defer to” in paragraph 4 probably mean
A. Bank on. B. Submit to. C. Argue with. D. Speak for.
7. Which of the following is the best title for the text
A. Explore youth hostels. B. Get off the well-beaten path.
C. Embrace the unexpected. D. Rethink “blind box” socializing.
C
Half the world’s 100 largest cities are experiencing high levels of water stress, with 38 of these sitting in regions of “extremely high water stress”, new analysis and mapping has shown.
Water stress means that withdrawals for public water supply and industry are close to exceeding available supplies, often caused by ineffective regulation of water resources and intensified by climate breakdown. Watershed Investigations and the Guardian mapped cities on stressed catchments revealing that Beijing, New York, Los Angeles, and Delhi are among those facing extreme stress, while London, Bangkok and Jakarta are classed as being highly stressed.
Separate analysis of NASA satellite data shows which of the largest 100 cities have been drying or getting wetter over two decades with places such as Chennai, Tehran and Zhengzhou showing strong drying trends and Tokyo, Lagos and Kampala showing strong wetting trends. Most of the city regions in notably wetting zones are in sub-Saharan Africa, with just Tokyo and Santo Domingo in the Dominican Republic sitting elsewhere. Most of the urban centers in areas with the strongest drying signals are across Asia, particularly northern India and Pakistan.
Now in its sixth year of drought, Tehran is critically close to “day zero” when no water will be available for its citizens, and last year the president, Masoud Pezeshkian, said the city may have to be relocated if the drought continues. Mohammad Shamsuddoha, professor of water crisis and risk reduction at UCL, said, “By tracking changes in total water storage from space, Grace, the NASA project, shows which cities are drying and which are getting wetter, offering an early warning of emerging water insecurity.”
Last week the UN announced the world had entered a state of serious water shortage where degradation of some resources had become irreversible (不可逆的). The World Bank Group has also been sounding the alarm. Global freshwater reserves have decreased sharply over the past 20 years, according to the group.
8. What does the author think leads to water stress
A. Heavy water pollution. B. Poor water management.
C. Freezing climate. D. Large population.
9. What does NASA satellite data indicate
A. Huge water loss. B. Severe water shortage.
C. Changeable rainfall. D. Uneven water distribution.
10. What is the purpose of Grace
A. To control water use. B. To increase freshwater reserves.
C. To issue an alert in time. D. To slow down the drying trends.
11. What is the text mainly about
A. The falling water storage across the world.
B. The problems with global water regulation.
C. NASA’s efforts to track global water changes.
D. Growing water risks faced by big cities worldwide.
D
A new study by researchers at the Cluster of Excellence Science of Intelligence shows that a combination of uncertainty and heterogeneity (异质性) plays a crucial role in how groups reach agreement.
Classic models of decision-making assume that all individuals contribute equally to consensus (共识), but in reality, groups are diverse and homogeneous in both knowledge and influence. Just as some people are experts in a topic, some individuals have more accurate or reliable information than the rest of the group. Others might be more “connected,” which causes their opinions to spread more widely.
These two types of diversity, namely level of knowledge and number of connections, are not independent, as uncertainty influences how the two shape decision-making. In other words, individuals with more initial knowledge tend to become more central and influential, helping others reduce uncertainty, while those who interact with many others obtain more information and thus become less uncertain over time. This dynamic allows groups to naturally remove weak or biased information and come to reliable conclusions — as long as central individuals don’t become overconfident too quickly.
To explore these effects, the researchers built a model where individuals adjust their beliefs and certainty dynamically as new information comes in. Uncertain individuals relied more on their peers, while confident ones shaped the group’s direction of opinion. But position within the network mattered just as much — highly connected agents spread their opinions widely, whether they were right or wrong.
The researchers found that a mix of perspectives wasn’t enough to improve decisions. Groups reached smarter and faster decisions when guided by uncertainty. When everyone had equal certainty and connections, consensus was slow and unreliable. But in heterogeneous groups, uncertainty helped weigh opinions, so that decisions were faster and more accurate.
In artificial intelligence and robotics, this research offers a new way to design systems that make better collective decisions. Self-driving cars could assess not just sensor inputs, but also the confidence of other nearby vehicles, improving safety. Many natural systems already follow the principle of adapting to uncertainty. Schools of fish, flocks of birds, and ant colonies don’t treat all input equally but adapt dynamically. We can use that knowledge to build better AI and improve human collaboration.
12. What do classic models of decision-making ignore
A. Group discussion. B. Individual difference.
C. Equal contribution. D. Interpersonal relationship.
13. What can be inferred about “knowledge” and “connections”
A. They can be misleading. B. They can remove overconfidence.
C. They rely on central individuals. D. They interact through uncertainty.
14. How can uncertainty assist with decision-making according to the research
A. By balancing different views. B. By encouraging more participation.
C. By making people decisive. D. By reducing unnecessary conflicts.
15. What does the author mainly discuss in the last paragraph
A. Choice of new research methods. B. Possible directions of AI technology.
C. Ways of adapting to uncertainty. D. Potential application of the findings.

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
In recent years, more people have begun to prioritize their emotional well-being over constant availability. The phrase “protect your peace” has become a guiding principle for those who feel exhausted by endless demands, unspoken duties, and relationships that take more than they give. 16 It is a response to burnout.
People begin to withdraw not because they do not care, but because they have spent too long caring without limits. 17 Some conversations are difficult but necessary. The challenge lies in knowing when silence preserves your well-being and when it quietly costs you your sense of self.
Boundaries are often misunderstood as rules imposed (强加) on others. 18 They reflect who you believe you are and what you believe you are allowed to need. Many people struggle with boundaries not because they lack communication skills, but because they have internalized the belief that their worth is tied to how much they give.
19 Healthy, loving relationships thrive on clarity and care. Silence can create distance, while thoughtful communication can strengthen trust. Explaining a boundary does not weaken it. When done with honesty and kindness, it helps others understand that your limits are not rejection, but preservation.
Boundaries are not demands. They are signals. They show others what we value and what we will protect. Over time, this clarity reshapes relationships, making room for mutual respect. Protecting your peace is not a single decision but an ongoing practice. It requires reflection, communication, and the willingness to redefine strength. In choosing yourself with honesty and care, you do not lose connection. 20
A. This shift isn’t about selfishness.
B. Instead, you create healthier ones.
C. As a matter of fact, they are rooted in identity.
D. Healthy relationships often require regular apology.
E. Protecting your peace doesn’t remove the need for explanation.
F. Yet protecting your peace doesn’t mean avoiding all discomfort.
G. It means refusing to lose yourself in the process of deep reflection.

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
“John, come on! We’ve got to get going!” my older sister Anna yelled up the stairs.
Anna and I fought about everything. She used the bathroom too long, she ate my snacks, and she always acted like the perfect older sister. She was on the track team, got good grades, and had tons of friends. Mom and Dad were always saying, “Why can’t you be more like your sister ” Trust me, I heard it enough.
Why would anyone pick exercise over pajamas (睡衣) It puzzled me. I’m really not that into sports. So, when Anna heard I was running the Turkey Trot this year, the look on her face — “You Running ” I’ll never forget it.
I stumbled down to the car where Anna was already seated and Dad was eating a chocolate bar. “Gotta fuel up,” he said. “Want one, John ” “I just need to wake up,” I said. “Why is it still dark Is this even legal You think this is fun ” “Of course it’s fun,” Anna cut in. “Don’t you know that exercise in the morning is one of the healthiest things you can do ” I stopped listening. She could be such a know-it-all sometimes.
When we got to the race, I was shocked how many people were there. It wasn’t long before the announcer started the countdown. Anna plugged in her AirPods and went off with the crowd. Dad found his friends and joined them. I was determined to run on my own.
Just keep going, just keep going, I told myself. I hated to admit it, but maybe Anna had been right about morning exercise. After the first mile and a half, I was feeling amazing—until my leg began to feel funny. It felt like nails were poking my right leg. My muscles began twitching uncontrollably. No, no, no, not a cramp (抽筋)! Before I could decide, my body chose for me. I couldn’t take one more step. I struggled to the side of the road and sat down, trying to shake it off. This can’t be happening, I thought. Then I heard footsteps behind me.

Dear David,
I’m writing to seek your help. These days, I’m conducting a survey about teenagers’ reading habits, and I’ve come across some problems that puzzle me a lot.
First, I find it challenging to design effective survey questions. Many of my questions are either too general or lead to inaccurate answers, which makes the data unconvincing. Second, I’m not sure how to analyze and present the collected data in a professional way in English so that I can draw meaningful conclusions.
Could you please offer me some suggestions on how to improve my survey questions and data analysis I’d really appreciate your help.
Yours,
Li Hua

It was Anna, jogging back toward me. “What are you doing here ” I asked. “You should be at the finish line!” “I got to the two-mile mark and didn’t see you,” she said, breathing hard. “I got worried. Are you okay ” Anna knelt down beside me. She gently stretched my leg and offered me her hand. I took it, and she helped me up. For the rest part, Anna stayed by my side. She slowed her pace to match mine. She talked me through the pain, telling me when to walk and when to jog again. “You’re doing great, John. Just keep going. I’m right here.”
As we crossed the finish line, Anna asked, “One more time next year ” “Yeah,” I said. And for the first time, I meant it. Dad was at the finish line, cheering for us. Anna threw an arm around my shoulder, saying “Not bad for your first race, little brother.” After the race, I couldn’t stop thinking about how Anna had given up her race to help me. I started to look at my sister differently and realized something: I hadn’t just learned to love running. I had learned to love having her as my sister. Sometimes the best things in life aren’t about winning — they’re about who’s running beside you.
