On a cold and wet evening in south London, a group of runners are doing something a little different. There are no exercise machines or gym mirrors in sight. Instead, they’re moving earth, clearing weeds, and smiling through the mud on a garden. Their warm-up was a one-mile jog through the city to get there.
This is GoodGym in action. It’s a growing movement that’s redefining what it means to work out. The organization invites people to “get fit by doing good”, blending physical activity with hands-on community service. Members run, walk, or cycle to local projects that could range from sorting cans at a food bank, planting fruit trees, visiting an older adult, or moving furniture for someone in need.
The idea began back in 2007 when founder Ivo Gormley started running to deliver a newspaper to an elderly neighbor. “I just didn’t like that idea of going to a gym, going into a basement and lifting things that don’t really need lifting,” Gormley said. “I thought I could do something more useful in my exercise.”
He started organizing runs to places in need of helping hands. The very first group tore down outdated posters in his east London neighborhood. Since then, GoodGym has grown into a registered charity with over 26,000 members in 67 locations. Now it’s aiming to expand into Scotland and Northern Ireland.
Though few other organizations blend exercise and volunteering in quite the same way, Gormley believes the concept taps into something timeless. “It’s what people have always done, right ” he said. “You grow some food literally through the action of planting and digging. That’s where your exercise comes from.”
4. Why does the author describe the runners working on a garden
A．To applaud their efforts. B．To describe a tough task.
C．To compare different exercises. D．To introduce a new tendency.
5. What is the core value of GoodGym
A．Diversifying fitness methods. B．Lending a hand during workouts.
C．Professionalizing volunteer work. D．Standardizing community service.
6. What inspired Gormley to start the organization
A．His personal failure. B．His physical condition.
C．Influences from other runners. D．His reflection on workouts.
7. What does Gormley imply about GoodGym in the last paragraph
A．It advocates keeping fit through labor.
B．It highlights the benefits of physical labor.
C．It fills the gap in traditional physical training.
D．It acts as an ideal alternative for modern gyms.
C
You leave an hour of online surfing with the sense that the world is falling apart. In the real world, however, a neighbor you disagree with politically helps you start your car. The dissonance is no accident. It is how today’s Internet works.
To better understand this gap, researchers surveyed 1,090 adults and found that people dramatically overestimate how common harmful behavior on the Internet is. On Reddit, participants thought harmful commenters were 13 times more common, estimating 43% of users post harmful content, while the actual figure is just 3%. Most offensive posts come from a small group of highly active users, whose out sized posts shape public beliefs, creating the “majority illusion” that makes this minority seem like the norm, drowning out the silent majority.
Our brains are wired to notice threats and moral breaks — negative content sticks in our minds. Additionally, social media algorithms (算法) prioritize content that causes strong reactions to keep users engaged, with falsehoods spreading faster than truth. Bot networks (僵尸网络) add to the noise: it has been reported that bad bots make up roughly a third of global web traffic, misleading what trends and who appears popular.
Measuring online harmful content is tricky, as automated tools often miss aggressive remarks. But what matters more is not “how harmful is the Internet,” but what ordinary users perceive as normal. Social psychologists call this dynamic “pluralistic ignorance”: people privately reject harmful norms but go along with them publicly. This misconception formed online creates a dangerous gap, fueling public distrust, preventing public participation, and lowering moral standards — if we think “everyone is awful,” we’re less likely to be kind.
While there is no silver bullet, practical steps — rooted in policy and personal awareness — can narrow the gap. The key lies in recognizing online engagement doesn’t equal approval: skip “most engaging” feeds and ground our views in actual world connections. Imagine a public square where the loudest few don’t seize the microphone — disagreement remains, but the air resounds with daily life: neighbors helping start cars, strangers holding doors. Online, we can make that reality visible again.
8. What does the underlined word “dissonance” in Paragraph 1 probably mean
A．Contrast. B．Prejudice. C．Disorder. D．Debate.
9. What do we know about the “majority illusion” from paragraph 2
A．It reflects the serious situation of harmful online remarks.
B．It results from people’s underestimate of offensive posts.
C．It is a false impression caused by a tiny group of active users.
D．It gives rise to widespread anxiety among the silent majority.
10. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about
A．Why global web traffic misleads people.
B．Why the minority feels like the majority.
C．How we identify online harmful content.
D．What harm online misconception causes.
11. What is the author’s suggestion in the last paragraph
A．Acting like the loudest few. B．Improving moral standards.
C．Valuing real-life interactions. D．Avoiding online engagement.
D
Beneath the ocean’s surface lies a secret world of light. While bioluminescence — the ability of living things to produce their own light — has long interested scientists, a lesser-known phenomenon called bio-fluorescence (生物荧光) is now stealing the spotlight.
Bio-fluorescence occurs when sea animals absorb light at one wavelength and send it out at another, creating vivid lights in colors like green, red, or orange. Unlike bioluminescence, which produces light through chemical reactions, bio-fluorescence depends on absorbing light from outside to glow. This natural light show is not just for beauty; it serves critical survival functions.
In the coral reefs of the Pacific, researchers observed corals sending out green under blue light. “It’s a dance of partnership guided by light,” explains marine biologist Dr. Kenji Nakamura. Without this interaction, coral bleaching (白化) — a major threat to coral ecosystems — would speed up.
Another wonder comes from the Hawaiian bobtail squid (短尾乌贼). When threatened by hunters, it releases a cloud of bio-fluorescent ink. The sudden burst of light confuses attackers, buying the squid precious seconds to escape. Dr. Emily Carter who led the study notes, “This is evolution’s version of a smoke screen — but far more shining.”
The discovery of GFP — green fluorescent protein (绿色荧光蛋白) — in jellyfish in 1962 revolutionized science. Researchers realized GFP could be used to mark specific cells, making invisible processes visible. Today, it lights up nerve cells in brain studies, helping map out connections in diseases like Alzheimer’s. “GFP is a window into the brain’s hidden workings,” says brain scientist Dr. Maria Gonzalez.
Scientists are now copying bio-fluorescence to develop sustainable technologies. For example, fluorescent proteins inspire energy-efficient LED lighting, and bio-fluorescent markers could improve medical imaging. “Nature’s designs are blueprints for human innovation,” says materials scientist Dr. Raj Patel.
Yet mysteries remain. Over 200 species of bio-fluorescent fish were recently discovered, their purposes still unclear. As submarines dive deeper, each expedition reveals new players in this beautiful underwater light show, proving that the ocean’s depths still guard ancient secrets.
12. How is bio-fluorescence different from bioluminescence
A．It is drawing less attention.
B．It produces brighter lights.
C．It needs an outside light source.
D．It makes better use of chemical reactions.
13. What can we learn about the examples in paragraphs 3 and 4
A．They both describe light-based hunting methods.
B．They both explain the formation of a close partnership.
C．They both highlight potential threats to the environment.
D．They both show survival functions of bio-fluorescence.
14. What is the main use of GFP in science
A．To protect corals from bleaching.
B．To create more efficient LED lights.
C．To treat the disease of Alzheimer’s.
D．To visualize cells for better observation.
15. What is the best title for the text
A．Bio-fluorescence: Nature’s Hidden Light Show
B．Bio-fluorescence: Nature’s Display of Beauty
C．Bioluminescence: Ocean’s Ancient Magic Power
D．Bioluminescence: Colourful Window into Ocean Secret
第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）
阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Studying can often seem overwhelming (压倒性的), with an endless list of tasks and limited time to achieve them. 16 These include setting up study routines, scheduling study breaks, goal breaking, distraction (使人分心的事物) removing, etc.
Establishing a routine is an excellent method for maintaining productivity while studying. Routines provide structure and enable you to stay focused. With a routine in place, you can determine what needs to be done and when to do it, which helps you stay on target. To establish a study routine, consider studying at the same time each day. 17 Also, it can prepare your mind for focused study time.
While it may seem time-consuming, taking regular study breaks can help you be more productive.Rather than studying for hours at a stretch, try splitting your study time into short-term sessions and taking a 10-minute break every hour or so. During the break, your brain is able to get a chance to rest and recharge. 18
Setting realistic and achievable goals is essential for improving productivity as well. Clear goals provide a sense of direction and purpose, which can help keep you motivated and focused. 19 This not only makes tasks less discouraging but also helps you to track progress and gain a sense of achievement as you complete each task.
20 In order to counter this, consider studying in an environment with minimal interruptions,such as a library or a quiet room in your home. Additionally, you can use noise-canceling headphones or software that blocks websites that prevent you from concentrating to further limit interruption.
A．This will help your body develop a rhythm.
B．Distractions can significantly reduce productivity.
C．You can use a planner to map out your study sessions.
D．But productivity and success can be achieved with strategies.
E．Insufficient rest can result in exhaustion and reduced attention.
F．Break large, tricky tasks down into smaller, more manageable ones.
G．Thus, your ability to focus and remember information will be improved.

阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
We’ve all heard the saying “Laughter is the best medicine”. And there might be something in this idiom: numerous studies have shown that people who describe 36 (they) as happy tend to have fewer health problems, a 37 (low) risk of depression, and longer lives.
For instance, a 2017 study at the University of Nottingham tested the effect of mood 38 138 pensioners receiving the normal flu jab. Those who felt happy on the day of the vaccination went on to produce more flu-fighting antibodies. Earlier work at Yale University and the University of Florida has also shown that your mood 39 (affect) the activation of genes that fight disease.
But does happiness cause good health, 40 is it the other way around After all, it could be that people who have robust immune systems naturally have higher levels of other mood-improving brain chemicals as well.
There is a possible evolutionary 41 (explain) here. Humans evolved as social creatures that cooperate in groups 42 (obtain) food and protect themselves from wild animals. We were happier with a close network of friends and family 43 this improved our survival chances.
It turns out that most people can increase their happiness. Research suggests that, on average, 50% of people’s general level of happiness 44 (determine) by genetics. However, 40% is under people’s control, and the 45 (remain) 10% depends on the circumstances.

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。词数150左右。
On a cold, damp evening in mid-November, a sharp wind cut through the streets, but Jack paid little attention to the chill. As a delivery rider, he had just finished a few smooth orders, his hands warm from the hot milk tea cups he’d been carrying, and his spirits fairly good. Stepping out of a milk tea shop, he found the spot where his second-hand electric bike had been parked now empty. In an instant, his heart sank, and a wave of hopelessness swept over him, turning his calm evening into a nightmare. That bike was far more than just a vehicle; it was his lifeline, the only way for him to earn daily income and cover his living expenses.
Panic set in as he remembered the undelivered orders — especially a cup of hot milk tea for Ms. White, a regular customer. His hand trembled as he pressed the voice button, his words laced with sorrow and anxiety as he apologized repeatedly, offering to pay for the undelivered drink. To his great surprise, Ms. White did not respond with anger or complaint, but with gentle kindness. Ms. White told him not to worry and to take his time finding his bike.
Her understanding words calmed him, but also deepened his sense of responsibility. “She is so kind. I cannot let her down,” he thought. For nearly two hours, he searched every nearby street, but there was no sign of his bike. As night grew darker and the wind bit harder, Jack clenched his fists and made a firm decision. He took out his poor savings, bought a bag of fresh apples and a new cup of hot milk tea, then set off on foot to Ms. White’s apartment, several kilometers away. The wind bit into his thin jacket, and his old shoes grew heavy with mud, but the thought of keeping his promise and maintaining his integrity kept him moving forward through the dimly lit urban landscape.
Finally, breathless, Jack reached Ms. White’s doorstep and rang the bell.
________________________________________________________________________
Deeply moved by Jack’s action, Ms. White decided to share the story online that night.
