COMMENTS ON THE APRIL ISS
Comments on the article I Survived!
I anxiously held my breath as I read these accounts. It’s nothing short of miraculous (奇迹般的) that these people lived to tell their stories. I’m so relieved they did and so grateful to have their experience and advice in hand should I ever have to face such horrific emergencies.
JESSICA ROSS, Parker, Colorado
After going through the account of the grizzly bear attack, I just had to make a comment. When you have to call out “Hey, bear” every 30 seconds because there are so many bears in the area, it could be a sign that maybe you should pick a safer place to hike.
GLENDA CHIARA, Cortland, New York
Comments on the article Horrible Mistakes
After working for 47 years as an RN in an acute-care hospital, I retired and with relief said, “I made it! I didn’t cause any deadly mistakes.” Only then did I realize the tension I had felt all those years, even though I loved my work. Thanks for helping to make the public aware of the situation.
BONNIE BACH, Peoria, Illinois
As a pharmacy technician, I work every day with the constant fear and realization that I could make an error that could kill or injure someone. The system is rife with (充满) opportunities for errors. Yet whom will the patient, my employer, the law, and even I blame Me.
GERTRUDE SVOBODA, via e-mail

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 (僵硬的), 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. Leaving out 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 paragraph 3
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. What does the author want to convey through his story
A. Love will find a way.
B. Still water runs deep.
C. Actions speak louder than words.
D. The best things in life are not material.
C
Many programs claim to boost happiness, like daily meditation (冥想) or 12-week gratitude diary. These activities from positive psychology do work, but most people are too busy to keep up with them. What if finding more happiness did not require a major time commitment or a big lifestyle change What if it could come from simple, brief actions such as texting a genuine “thank you” to a colleague, asking a friend to share something that made them feel proud or looking at the sky’s vastness with wonder
Inspired by the 2021 film Mission: Joy, researchers created a free, globally available online resource called the Big Joy Project. This free online program sends daily 5-10 minute micro acts to people worldwide. Examples include listening to a 42-second laughter clip or writing a gratitude list. Over 100,000 people from over 200 countries have joined, completing more than 400,000 micro acts. Studies show amazing results: after just one week, participants felt happier, less stressed, and even slept better. The benefits were for everyone — even people with financial struggles or lower education. The project also made people more willing to help others.
Why do these small acts work We think it’s because they boost positive emotions, inspire feelings of connection, and help people feel more aligned with what brings them meaning and purpose. Indeed, many of these behaviors — practicing gratitude and being more sociable, for instance—have been well studied for years and found to be beneficial to the doer or giver. Also, they make people feel in control of their happiness, not just waiting for good things to happen.
In a world full of loneliness and burnout, micro acts are powerful. They prove that simple, daily micro acts can ratchet up happiness in a more empowering way. While more research is needed, the Big Joy Project shows that anyone can feel happier with simple, daily acts.
28. Why does the author raise two questions in Paragraph 1
A. To exhibit some examples.
B. To display mental activities.
C. To show research direction.
D. To question previous programs.
29. What is a result of the Big Joy Project
A. People rid themselves of all sleep problems.
B. People with lower education got more help.
C. People had their financial problems solved.
D. People were happier and willing to help others.
30. What does the underlined phrase “ratchet up” mean in the last paragraph
A. Increase. B. Decrease. C. Affect. D. Spread.
31. What’s the best title of the passage
A. Small Acts, Big Joy
B. More commitment, More Joy
C. Simple Changes, Huge Gains
D. More Attention, Greater Happiness
D
Scientists in San Juan Island are testing a new method to listen to whales. They are using hair-thin fiber-optic cables（光纤） as underwater microphones. This technology is called Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS).
Unlike traditional tools that listen from one spot, DAS can use the whole length of the cable as a sensor. This allows scientists to find the exact place of a whale and track its direction.
The researchers have already proven that DAS works for large baleen whales (大型须鲸). In a test, they recorded the sounds of fin whales and blue whales by using it. Now, they face a new challenge: Seeing if it works for killer whales. Killer whales use high-frequency clicks, which are harder to detect (监测).
This research is important. The local killer whales, known as Southern Residents, are disappearing, with only about 75 left. They face three main threats: underwater noise from ships, a lack of their main food — Chinook salmon, and toxic pollution. Ship noise can cover up the killer whales’ clicks, making it hard for them to hunt the already few salmon.
If successful, the DAS system could provide real-time data on where the killer whales are. For example, if scientists detect killer whales moving towards a busy shipping lane, they could tell nearby ferries to slow down or reduce noise, giving the whales a safer path. The method could also open a new window into killer whales’ behavior and communication.
With thousands of miles of cables already on ocean floors worldwide, this technology could create a huge global network for monitoring underwater life and helping with conservation efforts.
32. What do the researchers use DAS for
A. Guiding whales. B. Discovering whales’ food.
C. Tracking whales. D. Repairing ships.
33. What is the researchers’ next plan after using DAS on large baleen whales
A. To record the sound of baleen whales.
B. To build a cheaper DAS system.
C. To study fish species in deeper water.
D. To apply DAS to killer whales.
34. What is paragraph 4 mainly about
A. How DAS works.
B. What killer whales suffer.
C. Why it is difficult to find killer whales.
D. How the research is carried out.
35. What can be inferred from paragraph 5
A. DAS may help protect and study killer whales.
B. DAS has already worked well on killer whales.
C. Killer whales can reduce noise by slowing down.
D. Ocean life will be protected worldwide.

How to Deliver Effective Presentations
Delivering presentation is an everyday art form that anyone can master. To capture your audience’s attention, present your information with ease and confidence. To get this level of fluency, use more visuals than text in your slides, and practice, practice, practice.
Think of your presentation as a story. __36__ Start by creating a beginning, then pull your audience into a tale with an exciting climax (高潮). It may help to start your presentation with a question or a dilemma so they feel involved from the start.
Make your slides as visual as possible. __37__ Instead, present charts, graphs, photos or illustrations that only you can explain. This way, your audience remains focused on you.
Include humor. __38__ Try leading your audience up to a point that sounds as if it will be serious, technical, or even dangerous, and then surprise them with a joke. If your presentation has a lot of data, you might transition between topics with funny visuals.
__39__ If you are working with a small crowd, you can talk directly to members of the audience. Ask someone to tell a joke to get you warmed up, or quiz audience members about their experience with something related to your topic. If it’s a large group, ask questions that each audience member can answer with a show of hands.
With practice and preparation, you can deliver presentations that inform, engage, and inspire. But even the best plan can run into trouble. __40__ For example, if the microphone stops working or a slide won’t load, staying calm and handling it gracefully can actually strengthen your connection with the audience.
A. As you write, organize it along a story line instead of by topics.
B. Find ways to make your presentation interactive.
C. Therefore, you’d better prepare for potential technical failures.
D. This is why having a backup plan is essential for any presenter.
E. Make jokes and tell funny anecdotes.
F. Avoid long sentences that explain everything you are going to say.
G. Practice your speech in front of a mirror to check your body language.
第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分）
第一节（共15小题，每题1分，满分15分）
Setting a goal is easy. Following through is harder. This problem reminds me of a lesson I learned while __41__ one day in the gym. There was a coach visiting who had __42__ thousands of athletes over his long career, including some Olympians. I introduced myself and we began talking about the process of __43__.
“What’s the difference between the best athletes and everyone else ” I asked.
He mentioned the usual __44__ — genetics (基因), luck and talent. But then he said something I wasn’t __45__: “At some point it comes down to who can handle the __46__ of training every day — doing the same lifts over and over and over.”
His answer __47__ me because it’s a different way of thinking about work attitude. You may hear people say things like, “It all comes down to passion.” Or, “You have to __48__ want it.” As a result, many of us get __49__ when we lose focus or motivation because we think that successful people have some bottomless __50__ of passion.
But this coach was saying that really successful people feel the __51__ lack of motivation as everyone else. The difference is that they still find a way to show up __52__ the feelings of boredom.
According to him, it’s this __53__ to do the work when it’s not easy that __54__ the top performers from everyone else. What matters is not the event but the __55__.

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Most people think that procrastination (拖延症) is a negative habit. But people like me who routinely put off doing assignments, are likely to defend our “slower” approach to getting tasks done.
I’m the only procrastinator in my family. My parents and sister were all born with the “do it right now” gift. They are always in a rush, as if closely rushed by an invisible deadline. Personally, I prefer a more relaxed pace. When my parents voiced their concern about my tendencies, saying “Don’t put off until tomorrow what you can do today,” “No way!” I responded, confidently presenting my research as a defense. It said people procrastinated when they need to solve a problem or commit to a topic or project. In these cases, delaying a decision can be beneficial. This was because our minds continue to reflect on problems even when we were not actively thinking about them, which could lead to more creative solutions. My findings filled me with satisfaction and pride. My method of getting things done was just as good as my sister’s…or so I thought.
At school we’d been talking about architecture and design. As part of the final assessment, my teacher Mr. Smith announced an exciting project that each student would have a month to complete. We were expected to choose our materials, construct a small building and make use of things we had learned in class. Not only would the winners receive extra credit, but the winning constructions would be proudly displayed in the cafeteria. “I have no clue how I could get it done,” my friend Nate sighed in despair. I didn’t say anything, not because I shared his anxiety but because I was not nervous at all. I loved hands-on projects! Picturing my brilliant work exhibited in the cafeteria, I was fully convinced that I would definitely produce something that could impress everyone. So relaxed was I that I didn’t give it a second thought for weeks.
注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；2.请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
Before I knew it, I had only one day left for the project.
I was exceptionally nervous when the teacher walked onto the podium to announce the winner.

Mental Health Awareness Month
Last month our school held Mental Health Awareness Month to improve students’ mental health.
Various activities were held. Experts gave lectures on releasing pressure. Besides, group sharing meetings helped students communicate troubles with peers.
These activities worked well. Students learned practical ways to keep positive and faced pressure properly.
第二节读后续写范文
Before I knew it, I had only one day left for the project. Panic swept over me instantly. I rushed to buy materials and started to build in a hurry. Due to limited time, my work was rough with many flaws. I finished it late at night tired and regretful, realizing blindly delaying was wrong.
I was exceptionally nervous when the teacher walked onto the podium to announce the winner. Unsurprisingly, my project failed to win any prize. I learned a valuable lesson: proper thinking doesn’t equal endless procrastination. From then on, I arranged tasks reasonably and never put things off till the last minute.
