Do you ever blend up a protein drink for breakfast, or grab a protein bar following an afternoon workout If so, you are likely among the millions of people in search of more protein-rich diets. Protein-enriched products are found everywhere. But contrary to all the publicity that everyone needs more protein, most Americans get twice as much as they need. Many of us living in the most developed countries are buying into a myth of protein deficiency created by food companies and self-identified health experts. Global retail sales of protein supplement products reached an astonishing U.S. $18.9 billion in 2020.
But are we really in need of more protein Physicians in the U.S., have never actually examined a patient with protein deficiency because simply by eating an adequate number of daily calories we are also most likely getting enough protein. In fact, Americans currently consume almost twice the National Academy of Medicine’s recommended daily intake of protein although the most desirable protein intake may vary depending on age and activity level. For example, if you’re a dedicated athlete you might need to consume higher quantities of protein. Generally, though, a 140-pound person should not exceed 120 grams of protein per day, particularly because a high protein diet can strain kidney and liver function and increase risks of developing heart disease and cancer.
While fats and sugar have taken the beating in turns since over a century ago, protein has managed to remain our red-hot favorite. In the 1970s through the 1990s, protein products remained visible but moved back somewhat with the dietary spotlight firmly fixed on low-calorie, low-fat, sugar-free snack foods and beverages following the publication of studies linking sugar and saturated (饱和的) fat consumption to heart disease. Later research in 2003, however, suggested high-protein diets could aid in weight loss, and protein quickly regained its former nutrient-superstar status.
Now most people living in high-income nations are consuming enough protein. When we replace meals with a protein bar or drink, we also risk missing out on the rich sources of antioxidants (抗氧化剂), vitamins and many other benefits of real food.
4. Why have physicians in the U.S. never actually examined a patient with protein deficiency
A．Americans can get sufficient protein just by eating adequate foods daily.
B．Americans can absorb the number of calories recommended by food experts.
C．Americans can purchase many kinds of protein-rich foods everywhere.
D．Americans can rely on food supplements to prevent protein deficiency.
5. What should people take into consideration in deciding on the most preferable protein intake
A．How healthy they are and what food they eat.
B．How much protein they consume and what their body weight is.
C．How old they are and what activities they do.
D．How serious their protein deficiency is and what remedies they use.
6. What foods have been largely out of favor for more than a century
A．Sugar-free snacks. B．Sugary and fatty foods. C．Both red and white meats. D．Protein-rich foods.
7. What does the author imply people in developed countries should do to keep healthy
A．Replace meals with protein bars. B．Eat vegetarian diets. C．Consume enough protein daily. D．Enjoy natural food.
C
Consumers rely on various ways to pay daily expenses. The problem is that they tend to spend more with cashless payment methods in comparison to cash. This striking cashless effect has recently been confirmed by researchers from the University of Adelaide.
Led by PhD Student Lachlan Schomburgk, the research team analysed 71 published and unpublished studies from 17 countries, including data from more than 11,000 unique participants. They’ve found that cashless payments lead people to spend more on status-signalling goods like jewellery, while this effect is notably absent in acts of donation or tipping.
“Through this meta-analysis, we identified key factors that make the cashless effect stronger or weaker, which individual studies could not find. By doing this, we uncovered new key understandings that had often been overlooked by other researchers in individual studies.” Schomburg explains.
The findings indicate that consumers should be mindful of how they pay for goods or services, as this helps them spend less, especially critical in the current cost-of-living crisis. To avoid overspending, they’re advised to carry cash instead of cards whenever possible as a self-control method. When using cash, they count and hand over notes and coins, making spending more noticeable. If nothing is physically handed over, it’s easy to lose track of how much is spent.
The study also provides useful insights for businesses and policymakers. “Businesses should know failing to accept the cashless revolution might unintentionally be jeopardising profit potential,” Schomburg says. “And policymakers should communicate to individuals unfamiliar with cashless payments, such as people who don’t have bank accounts, about the possibility of cashless methods to lead to overspending.”
Schomburg stresses a need for urgent in-depth studies of new payment methods, as research on their specific impacts remains limited due to their novelty. Studying these methods is vital to keep pace with the evolving payment ecosystem and deepen understanding of modern consumers’ spending habits.
8. What has the study found about the cashless effect
A．It exists in acts of donation. B．It weakens with more cash use.
C．It links to the living cost crisis. D．It works in specific consumption.
9. Why did the team adopt the meta-analysis
A．To solve the overspending problem. B．To compare cash and cashless payments.
C．To confirm factors causing the effect. D．To break the limitations of single studies.
10. What does the underlined word “jeopardising” in Paragraph 5 mean
A．Risking. B．Preserving. C．Shifting. D．Boosting.
11. What can be inferred about new payments according to Schomburg
A．They need to be popularized. B．They are developing rapidly.
C．They should be further studied. D．They will affect spending habits.
D
What if a startup’s first team member was an AI agent, not a human This question led Microsoft and NYU Stern’s Tech MBA program to a special project. Thirty students formed six startup teams, using Microsoft 365 Copilot (with the latest AI agent features) to rethink work — starting with AI from day one. Their goal: break old workflows, build “Frontier Firms,” and explore human-AI cooperation.
Frontier Firms aren’t just AI users — they’re built around AI. From the start, AI agents integrate into every aspect of the company, reshaping work processes, decision-making methods, and team structures to enhance human-AI partnership. The results were eye-opening. Top teams didn’t just use AI for tasks — they let it spark ideas: designing org charts, refining pitch decks, and creating sample business models. This revealed a new work style: AI as an active, growing team member.
The project had two phases. First, students used Copilot to simulate starting a startup — assigning roles, writing plans, and testing workflows. Then, they imagined how “AI-first” Frontier Firms might work, drawing blueprints for AI-powered organizations. Starting fresh helped: no old rules held them back.
Students found AI quickly became their “first hire,” taking on key roles like strategist or analyst. One team even let AI design an org chart by analyzing resumes. AI handled tasks like planning market strategies, writing job descriptions, and building financial models. This let human members take on more roles without stress and tackle work outside their expertise — speeding up progress from idea to action.
This project shows AI can be more than a tool — it can be a teammate or even a co-founder. It’s not a future dream, but a present reality reshaping work. To adapt, leaders need a new mindset: see AI as a partner, not just an aid.
12. What was the main goal of the special project
A．To compare AI and human work efficiency. B．To train students on using Microsoft 365 Copilot.
C．To experiment on the teamwork of humans and AI. D．To help students learn about the latest AI version.
13. What role did the leading teams give AI
A．Rare tool. B．Silent clerk. C．Final judge. D．Idea partner.
14. How did AI most help students move from idea to action
A．Issuing grand visions. B．Boosting team spirits. C．Running rapid analyses. D．Arranging team meet-ups.
15. Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text
A．AI Agent Becomes the Startup’s First Hire B．Put AI on the Founding Team from Day One
C．Argue for Human-only Leadership in a Team D．Researchers Ask Who Really Runs a New-build Firm
第二节 七选五（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
Growing up in rural Pennsylvania, I spent countless days wandering in the woods, where I deeply felt nature’s capacity to heal (治愈). ___16___ Back then, I had no idea that the affection would guide my career — let alone inspire me to pen a book linking nature with therapy (疗法).
My professional journey into the practice of ecotherapy began when I was introduced to the book Eco psychology: Restoring the Earth, Healing the Mind. After obtaining my professional certificate in this field, over the following 30 years, I ran a private practice and worked with clients, witnessing huge impacts of bringing nature into the therapeutic process. ___17___
Meanwhile, I saw a gap in traditional psychotherapy. ___18___ While research proved nature’s mental health benefits, clinicians lacked a practical ecotherapy guide. This mismatch led me to set about writing Prescribing Nature to bridge the gap and help them integrate nature-based approaches into their therapeutic toolboxes.
___19___ The Overview covers ecotherapy’s theories and research on nature’s effects. The Practice offers actionable steps: bringing nature indoors, outdoor therapy and nature prescriptions (处方). The Practical considerations address challenges like special populations, plus a chapter on climate sufferings that clients rarely mention. Every section is based on both scientific research and my own decades of clinical experience to ensure credibility.
Prescribing Nature targets mainstream clinicians in traditional settings. ___20___ Thus, more clinicians will be empowered to use ecotherapy and more people will benefit from nature’s incredible healing power.
A．It stayed restricted to indoor settings.
B．That fueled my resolve to share this approach.
C．The book focuses on digital interventions for anxiety.
D．Close contact with nature has strong restorative effects.
E．The experiences planted in my heart a seed of love for it.
F．I structured the book into three distinct sections for clarity.
G．I hope it’ll join the growing body of literature on ecopsychology.

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。
Music had always been my safe place. Ever since I was six years old and first touched those black and white keys, the piano became my voice when words failed me. My parents said I would spend hours at our old upright piano, making up little tunes before I even learned to read notes properly. That’s when Mr. Wilson entered my life as my piano teacher. He was different from other teachers while others focused only on technique, Mr. Wilson always said, “Your playing may not be perfect, but it’s full of feeling.”
Last year, our city hosted its annual Youth Piano Competition. When Mr. Wilson suggested I participate, my hands turned cold with fear. “I’m not ready,” I protested (反对). But he smiled and said, “Music isn’t about being the best, but it’s about sharing your heart.” For three months, I practiced John Denver’s “Country Road” every day after school. Mr. Wilson helped me arrange a special piano version that started softly like a whisper and built to an emotional climax.
The day of the semifinals arrived. Backstage, I could hear the previous contestant playing flawlessly (完美无瑕地). When my name was called, my legs felt like jelly. The first few measures went well, but then at the most difficult transition, my mind went completely blank. My fingers kept moving automatically, but the wrong notes rang out like alarm bells. I managed to finish the piece, but the disappointed look on the judges’ faces said it all.
For weeks after the competition, I avoided the piano altogether. Then one rainy afternoon, I heard music floating up from downstairs. It was Mr. Wilson at our piano, playing my mistake-filled competition performance, note for wrong note. And yet... there was something strangely beautiful about it. The way he played those “wrong” notes with such certainty made them sound intentional, like they belonged there all along.
注意：(1)续写词数应为150个左右；(2)按格式作答。
Paragraph 1:
I listened quietly as Mr. Wilson played my failed performance.

____________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
A year later, the competition poster caught my eye.

读后续写
I listened quietly as Mr. Wilson played my failed performance. When he finished, he turned to me and explained that music was about expressing true feelings rather than being free of mistakes. Those wrong notes showed my nervousness and real emotions, which were also part of music. His words touched me deeply. I walked to the piano and decided to pick it up again.
A year later, the competition poster caught my eye. Encouraged by Mr. Wilson, I signed up without hesitation. I practiced harder than before and focused on conveying my feelings. This time, I played calmly and sincerely. Finally, I won a prize. I realized that courage and true emotion matter most in music.
