When I was a child I was often told what not to eat. “You don’t want to get fat” was on constant repeat throughout my childhood. It really messed up my relationship with food — something that took me years to overcome. Because of this, I’m careful not to connect what my kids weigh with their worth as people. I encourage my daughter to make healthy snack choices and often dissuade (劝阻) her from a second dessert. But one day when I heard her saying “I think I’m too fat,” my heart sank. It made me wonder if giving her advice on snacks was having an unintentionally negative impact.
According to Charlotte Markey, a professor of psychology, food is one of the rare subjects where, as parents, saying less is more. “There are so many things in parenting that are good to talk through, but I’m not convinced that food is one of them,” she says. “It just creates some worries and insecurities in kids that aren’t necessarily healthy.”
Instead, she recommends applying a well-known concept among nutrition experts called the “Division of Responsibility,” where parents provide a variety of mostly healthy foods to their kids at fixed times, and the kids themselves decide what and how much they want to consume — even if that means occasionally eating more cookies than carrots.
Allowing kids to eat what they want also exposes them to the natural consequences of their decisions. “When your child says, ‘My stomach hurts,’ you can say, ‘Well you had a lot of sugary foods and you might feel better if you made some other choices,’” says Markey. “Let them feel like they have some control over it.”
I’ve been trying out these strategies and I’ve found that when I’m less restrictive, they do make better decisions. “Feeding is a long game,” says Markey. “The food you have available makes a huge difference. Even if they don’t eat it, they’ re seeing it. And then all of a sudden it clicks.”
4. What can be inferred about the author from the first paragraph
A．She is upset by her kids’ weight. B．She is critical of the way she was fed.
C．She is interested in making food. D．She is particular about what she eats.
5. Which of the following would Markey disapprove of
A．Allowing kids to eat occasionally. B．Offering various foods at fixed times.
C．Explaining to kids the risks of taking snacks. D．Talking with kids about school at mealtimes.
6. What should kids do according to the “Division of Responsibility”
A．Make diet decisions on their own. B．Share their food with other kids.
C．Eat up what is provided for them. D．Help their parents do the dishes.
7. What does the author think of the strategies she has been following
A．Costly. B．Complex. C．Workable. D．Contradictory.
C
Many people believe that working to the maximum is the secret to success, but research has found that moderation(适度) also gets results on the job.
In a study led by Ellen Langer of Harvard University, researchers asked people to translate sentences into a new made-up language. Subjects who practiced the language moderately beforehand made fewer errors than those who practiced extensively or not at all. High levels of knowledge can make people too attached to traditional ways of viewing problems across fields the arts, sciences, and politics. High conscientiousness is related to lower job performance, especially in simple jobs where it doesn’t pay to be a perfectionist.
How long we stay on the clock and how we spend that time are under careful examination in many workplaces. The young banker who eats lunch at his desk is probably seen as a go-getter, while his colleagues who chat over a relaxed conference-room meal get dirty looks from the corner office. “People from cultures that value relationships more than ours does are shocked by the thought of eating alone in front of a computer”, says Art Markman, a professor of psychology at the University of Texas, Austin. Social interaction has been shown to lift mood(情绪) and get people thinking in new directions and in ways that could help improve any post-lunch effort.
Markman also promotes off-task time. “Part of being a good thinker is experiencing things that are seemingly unrelated to what you are working on at the moment but give you fresh ideas about your work,” he says. “Also, there is a lot of research showing that a positive mood leads to higher levels of productivity and creativity. So, when people do things to increase their life satisfaction, they also make themselves more effective at work.”
8. What does Ellen Langer’s study show
A．It is worthwhile to be a perfectionist. B．Translation makes people knowledgeable.
C．Simpler jobs require greater caution. D．Moderate effort produces the best result.
9. The underlined word “go-getter” in paragraph 3 refers to someone who_______.
A．is good at handling pressure B．works hard to become successful
C．has a natural talent for his job D．gets on well with his co-workers
10. What can be inferred from the last paragraph
A．A good thinker is able to inspire other people.
B．Experience unrelated to your job is useless.
C．A cheerful mood helps make a creative mind.
D．Focusing on what you do raises productivity.
11. What does the text seem to advocate
A．Middle-of-the-road work habits. B．Balance between work and family.
C．Long-standing cultural traditions. D．Harmony in the work environment.
D
The connection between people and plants has long been the subject of scientific research. Recent studies have found positive effects. A study conducted in Youngstown，Ohio，for example, discovered that greener areas of the city experienced less crime. In another，employees were shown to be 15% more productive when their workplaces were decorated with houseplants.
The engineers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology(MIT)have taken it a step further changing the actual composition of plants in order to get them to perform diverse，even unusual functions. These include plants that have sensors printed onto their leaves to show when they’re short of water and a plant that can detect harmful chemicals in groundwater. ＂We’re thinking about how we can engineer plants to replace functions of the things that we use every day,＂explained Michael Strano, a professor of chemical engineering at MIT.
One of his latest projects has been to make plants glow(发光)in experiments using some common vegetables. Strano’s team found that they could create a faint light for three-and-a-half hours. The light，about one-thousandth of the amount needed to read by，is just a start. The technology, Strano said, could one day be used to light the rooms or even to turn trees into self-powered street lamps.
In the future，the team hopes to develop a version of the technology that can be sprayed onto plant leaves in a one-off treatment that would last the plant’s lifetime. The engineers are also trying to develop an on and off＂switch＂where the glow would fade when exposed to daylight.
Lighting accounts for about 7% of the total electricity consumed in the US. Since lighting is often far removed from the power source(电源)-such as the distance from a power plant to street lamps on a remote highway-a lot of energy is lost during transmission(传输).Glowing plants could reduce this distance and therefore help save energy.
12. What is the first paragraph mainly about
A．A new study of different plants. B．A big fall in crime rates.
C．Employees from various workplaces. D．Benefits from green plants.
13. What is the function of the sensors printed on plant leaves
A．To detect plants’ lack of water. B．To change compositions of plants.
C．To make the life of plants longer. D．To test chemicals in plants.
14. What can we expect of the glowing plants in the future
A．They will speed up energy production. B．They may transmit electricity to the home.
C．They might help reduce energy consumption. D．They could take the place of power plants.
15. Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A．Can we grow more glowing plants B．How do we live with glowing plants
C．Could glowing plants replace lamps D．How are glowing plants made pollution-free

With gas prices rising and airport security lines snaking longer than ever, why not book your next domestic vacation on a train Compared to other alternatives, it’s comfortable and relaxing. Here is some advice on how to make a trip by rail as pleasant as possible.
Plan ahead. Most long-distance trains, especially the sleeping car accommodations, sell out very quickly. 16 But no matter when you travel, it’s a good idea to make your reservations at least 90 days in advance.
Use a travel agent. Consider turning your travel plan over to a travel agent and letting him double-check all the details, make suggestions, and then handle the actual reservations. A good one can sometimes find you discounted tickets. 17 Then you won’t have to walk through several cars on a moving train three times a day for your meals.
Bring a blanket. When you’re riding on trains, you won’t be provided with a blanket for free, even if your trip is an overnight one. 18 In the summer in particular, the air conditioning can make them quite cold.
Arrive early. Most trains operate just once a day and some run only three times a week, so missing yours can be a disaster. 19 Note: The times listed on the schedules are departure times, not arrival times.
Have fun. 20 Read a book, knit, do a crossword puzzle, or simply watch the world unfold outside the window. To calculate your speed as you do, divide 3,600(the number of seconds in an hour)by the number of seconds it takes you to travel one mile(the distance between two mileposts). If it takes the train 53 seconds to travel one mile, you’re going 67.92 mph.
A．Train trips aren’t for impatient types.
B．You’ll have views from both sides of the train.
C．The temperature on rail cars is often hard to control.
D．That’s particularly true during busy summer months.
E．You might have to wait longer than 24 hours to catch the next one.
F．Chances are that the cost will be a lot less than the cost of one bedroom.
G．He may also book you in a sleeping car that’s right next to the diner.

China has become the first country to land a spacecraft on the far side of the moon. The unmanned Chang’e-4 probe (探测器)— the name was inspired by an ancient Chinese moon goddess 36 — (touch) down last week in the South Pole-Aitken basin.

第二节 读后续写（满分25分）
47. 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。
For nearly a decade, Mr. Howard’s classroom bell was more than just a signal for the start of class — it was the heartbeat of the small rural town of Marigold Falls.
The old metal bell sat on the teacher’s desk, slightly rusted (锈蚀的) but proud, its wooden handle worn smooth by years of use. Every morning at exactly 8:00, Mr. Howard would ring it once. That clear, familiar sound echoed (回荡) through the halls and, for some students, deep into their hearts.
Mr. Howard taught fourth grade, but to many children he was more than a teacher. He remembered their birthdays, carried extra pencils, and kept a secret box of snacks for anyone who needed one. His classroom was lined with shelves of books and filled with the gentle music from the record player between classes. Yet it was always the bell — the simple act of ringing it — that signaled everything was going to be okay.
When he retired last year, the school held a modest celebration. He smiled warmly through the hugs and a big cake, but when he carefully packed the bell into a cardboard box labeled “Personal,” Room 204 grew quiet.
Afterwards, the new teacher used an electric tone. Most students adjusted, but not Evan, who had found deep comfort in that bell. Its sound had calmed him when words or feelings were too much. Mr. Howard had known this and always let Evan ring it on Fridays. Without the bell, Evan struggled. His mother tried a timer, but it wasn’t the same. For Evan, time was never just numbers — it was sound, memory, and safety.
One Sunday afternoon, Mr. Howard was tending his garden when a car pulled up. Evan stepped out, holding a sketchbook (素描本) close to his chest. His mother followed and explained softly, “Evan’s been drawing your classroom — especially the bell. He misses it more than we knew.” That evening, Mr. Howard opened the box. Inside lay the bell, silent yet full of memory. He polished it carefully and decided to pay a visit to the principal.注意：(1) 续写词数应为150个左右；(2) 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
The following Monday, Mr. Howard returned to Room 204 with his bell.___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
At the graduation ceremony, Evan found a special way to thank Mr. Howard.____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Dear Eddie,
I'd like to suggest adding a part about daily food to the poster. Food production and consumption produce a large amount of carbon emissions. We can encourage everyone to save food and choose local ingredients. It is closely connected with our daily life, so the poster will be more practical and persuasive. Hope my advice is helpful.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua

The following Monday, Mr. Howard returned to Room 204 with his bell. All the students were overjoyed when they saw the familiar old bell. Mr. Howard told everyone that the bell would stay in the classroom from now on and let Evan be the person to ring it every Friday. Evan’s eyes lit up with joy. He held the bell gently and his loneliness faded away completely.
At the graduation ceremony, Evan found a special way to thank Mr. Howard. He presented a carefully drawn painting of the old bell to him. He said the bell not only brought beautiful sounds, but also warmth and comfort. What he valued most was the teacher’s care and understanding. Mr. Howard was deeply moved and kept the painting as a precious gift.
