When I was a child, I drew a face. A grown-up corrected me quickly with a circle, round eyes, a seven-shaped nose and a curved mouth. I stood confused, for this cold, mechanical pattern felt nothing like the lively faces I knew in real life.
As I grew up, I kept wondering how to draw a real face. Once, I got a chance to ask people to draw each other following two rules: never lift the pencil, and never look down at the paper. They could only look at their partner. After a minute, the drawings were terrible but wonderful. Why Because they had drawn what they truly saw, not what they thought a face should look like. They also did something rare: they made eye-to-eye, face-to-face contact for almost a full minute without looking away. They slowed down, focused fully, and truly noticed another person. That was the secret to drawing “a real face”.
Later, as an illustrated journalist, I once planned a drawn story about how public libraries served the people. I explored every corner of the library and genuinely connected with the staff. I found with their intentional, public-spirited help, those seemingly ordinary facilities served people in far more meaningful puters that I assumed were for checking out books or emails were actually lifelines for people searching for jobs and housing. The sinks in the public restroom served as a laundromat (洗衣房) and showers for the homeless. The entirely new and rich truth contributed to my series of breathing drawings.
I do not hope everyone becomes an artist, but everyone can learn to see deeply. Slow down, pay attention, and truly observe; you will rediscover love for the world and all people around you. We urgently need this courage — to see each other and ourselves clearly, and to honor the real truth hidden in plain sight.
5.What confused the author in the first paragraph
A. A fixed concept. B. The adult’s criticism.
C. A sharp contrast. D. The unclear drawing rules.
6.Why were the drawings terrible but wonderful in paragraph 2
A. They were messy but detailed. B. They were rough but lively.

D. Deeper exploration for good stories.
8.What can we learn from this passage
A. Drawing skills improve with continuous practice and persistent patience.
B. Deep seeing requires slowing down and observing without preconceptions.
C. Public libraries offer many hidden services that few people know about.
D. Adults often have a misunderstanding of children’s creative expressions.
C
For decades, brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) have held promise for treating neurological disorders, from paralysis to epilepsy. But most devices are crude, sending electrical pulses that don't match the subtle language of the brain. Now, a team of researchers has built artificial neurons that communicate with real cells using the same chemical signals the brain naturally uses, opening a new era of more natural, less invasive implants.
The core of the breakthrough lies in how these artificial neurons mimic biological ones. Instead of just delivering electricity, they use neurotransmitters — the chemical messengers that neurons rely on to send signals. The synthetic cells are built from soft, biocompatible materials and can both detect signals from real neurons and release their own neurotransmitters in response.
In lab tests, the artificial neurons successfully connected with living brain cells in a dish. When a real neuron fired, the synthetic version detected the signal, processed it, and then released neurotransmitters to activate a second neuron in the chain. The communication was fast, precise, and indistinguishable from natural neural activity.
This technology solves a major problem with current implants: foreign - body rejection. Traditional BCIs are made of rigid materials that scar brain tissue over time, losing their ability to connect. The new artificial neurons, however, are flexible and made of materials similar to those found in the body, reducing the risk of rejection and inflammation.
The implications are profound. For patients with paralysis, it could mean BCIs that control prosthetics with greater precision. For those with neurological diseases, like Parkinson’s or Alzheimer’s, it could lead to implants that restore lost neural communication, potentially slowing or even reversing symptoms.
“This is the first time we’ve built a device that truly speaks the brain’s language,” said lead researcher Dr. Elena Marquez. “By matching the brain’s own chemistry, we’re creating implants that don’t just connect to the brain, but integrate with it. This could revolutionize how we treat brain disorders.”
While human trials are still years away, the research marks a critical step forward. As the technology evolves, these artificial neurons could become the building blocks of next - generation BCIs — ones that work seamlessly with the brain, not against it.
9.What does the underlined word “crude” in Paragraph 1 most probably mean
A. Rough and imprecise B. Expensive and rare
C. Modern and advanced D. Small and portable
10.What advantage do the new artificial neurons have over traditional BCIs
A. They are made of harder materials for longer use
B. They use electrical pulses to send signals only
C. They reduce the risk of rejection by the body
D. They have already been tested on human patients
11.What is the main idea of the passage
A. The history and development of brain-computer interfaces.
B. New artificial neurons that communicate like real brain cells.
C. The negative effects of traditional medical implants.
D. Common treatments for neurological diseases.

As the senate （参议院） prepares to vote on legislation to empower the Food and Drug Administration to regulate tobacco products，its members would be wise to consult a recent appeals court decision.The decision makes it clear that the tobacco companies have engaged in deceitful and harmful behavior for many decades and cannot be trusted to reform on their own.Regulatory oversight is the best chance to rein them in.
The unanimous ruling by a three-judge panel of the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia upheld （维持原判） major elements of a 2016 lower court decision that found big tobacco companies guilty of racketeering （非法获取钱财） and fraud as part of a prolonged campaign to deceive and addict the public.That 1，742-page opinion，submitted by Judge Gladys Kessler，laid out in painstaking detail how the tobacco companies made false statements and suppressed evidence to deny or play down the addictive qualities and the negative health effects of smoking.
Judge Kessler found that the companies manipulated the design of cigarettes to deliver addictive dose of nicotine，falsely denied that secondhand smoke caused disease and falsely represented that light and low-tar cigarettes presented fewer health risks.
The appeals court not only upheld her decision as legally sound，it also seemed deeply impressed by the "volumes of evidence" and "countless examples of deliberately false statements" underlying many of Judge Kessler's findings.It also upheld some but not all of the marketing restrictions and other requirements she imposed to prevent the companies from making future false claims and engaging in additional cheating activities.
The companies protested that they should not be subjected to such requirements because they had already agreed to numerous remedies under a settlement agreement with 46 states and the District of Columbia.The appeals panel was rightly unimpressed.It upheld the district court's findings that after the settlement went into effect in 2008，the companies almost immediately began to evade and violate various prohibitions against joint activities and false statements.
The House has already voted to give the F.D.A.power to regulate tobacco.Senators，who are getting ready to vote on similar legislation，now have fair warning，if they should need any more，that this is a dishonest industry.It can't be trusted to behave responsibly or even adhere to agreements it has signed.It is time to grant the F.D.A.the power to regulate the content and marketing of tobacco products.
12.Why would it be wise for the senators to consult a recent appeals court decision before voting？______
A. It would demonstrate the tobacco industry has failed to reform.
B. It would remind the senators of how tobacco companies reap profits through fraudulent practices.
C. It would help the senators realize the necessity of external regulation of the tobacco industry.
D. It would reveal the many adverse effects of tobacco on health.
13.It can be inferred from Judge Kessler's findings that ______ .
A. tobacco companies caused customers' addiction at the cost of their health
B. the negative health effects of smoking have long been underestimated
C. racketeering and fraud have blinded the tobacco companies for a long time
D. light and low-tar cigarettes pose fewer health risks
14.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to paragraphs 4 & 5？______
A. The appeals court upheld Judge Kessler's restrictions and requirements entirely.
B. The tobacco companies immediately violated the restrictions imposed by Judge Kessler.
C. The appeals panel dismissed the settlement agreement that went into effect in 2008.
D. The tobacco companies protested about Judge Kessler's requirements in vain.
15.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage？______
A. Actions Speak Louder Than Words：Big Tobacco Needs to Show Good Faith
B. Old Dogs，New Tricks：The Tobacco Industry's Reform
C. Once a Liar，Always a Liar：Why the Tobacco Industry Can't Be Trusted
D. What's Done Cannot Be Undone：The Tobacco Industry's Past Mistakes

Can We Adapt to Modern Life
One of the fascinating things about working as a psychotherapist is having the opportunity to observe how many of our problems involve us getting in the way of ourselves. The difficulties we encounter are frequently the result of self-defeating, and managing them often requires doing our best not to give in to every impulse. (16) To lose weight and keep it off, to climb out of debt, to find meaningful work, to maintain happy relationships — all demand postponing our immediate desires. Delaying satisfaction has been a useful strategy for a long period of time.
(17) Why is it that following our instincts often seems to land us in so much trouble A central idea in the field of evolutionary psychology is that of evolutionary mismatch. Put simply, we evolved in a very different environment from the one in which we find ourselves. (18)
But isn't a trait of being human our species' ability to adapt to changing circumstances Yes and no. Yes, we have a remarkable ability to deal with new problems, collaborate to find solutions and create technology to help us realise them. (19)
The contemporary human habitat isn't the one we were made for. Genetic adaptations could not keep up with the move to cities or technological and cultural shifts. So what has the consequence been
Perhaps the starkest impact has been on our waistlines. (20) Now calories are cheap and scientists devote whole careers to making foods “hyperpalatable”— that is, far more appealing than any food found in nature. These artificial snacks interfere with the body’s ability to regulate appetite. Obesity has now overtaken malnutrition as the leading public health issue relating to diet in many parts of the world. So how to settle the issue is another challenging task.
A．As a result, our brains, bodies, and instincts are poorly matched to their surroundings.
B．For example, the instinct to consume foods excessively rich in salt, fat, and sugar kept people alive for most of history, when the next meal was never guaranteed.
C．This conflict between our ancient instincts and the modern world creates many challenges.
D．But why does so much of modern life seem to involve swimming upstream
E．In other words, our greatest struggles often come from within.
F．To deal with these gaps, some of us turn back to technology.
G．At the same time, anthropologists (人类学家) estimate that human genetics has remained largely unchanged for about 100,000 years.
16.A. A B. B C. C D. D E. E F. F G. G
17.A. A B. B C. C D. D E. E F. F G. G
18.A. A B. B C. C D. D E. E F. F G. G

The 1, 200 government relief cheque arrived on a Tuesday. My first thought was to divide it — 300 for each of my four grown children — but a quiet, familiar (21) in my heart told me this money belonged elsewhere.
My mind went back to 2008. That was the year a bicycle accident (22) my husband's feet forever. For six long years, until he passed away in 2014, the quiet, endless (23) of Jefferson Washington Township Hospital became my second home, a world (24) in the rhythmic beep of monitors.
The doctors and nurses there didn't just (25) his vitals; they held me upright. Back then, I had nothing to give but (26) . I spent hours crafting letters of praise for every nurse who adjusted a pillow or shared a kind look or stayed a minute longer in the 4 AM silence. I promised myself that if I ever had the means, I would do something more than just write.
I called Scarpinato's — my favorite local Italian spot — and ordered 110 hot lunches. I watched the trays of pasta and bread being (27) into the ICU and surgical units. Inside, the staff began to gather. Exhausted residents and supply-room workers finally (28) their shoulders for a moment, their faces softening as they took their first bite. As the steam rose in the cool air, I stood by the same hospital entrance where I had spent so many difficult nights. A sharp surge of warmth (29) me.
I looked at the sky and smiled, knowing he was watching those trays, too. (30) is funny like that; it never really leaves you. It just waits for the right moment to find its way back home.

41.I had tried several things to be happier, like playing video games on my phone, scrolling short videos and avoiding doing my homework. But none of these easy things made me truly happy. They just gave me short-term pleasure at the cost of long-term regret.
But the moment I put my phone down, I didn’t feel good. I regretted wasting my time. I lost focus and started craving (强烈渴望) that instant pleasure again. And because of that, I couldn’t get any work done. And if I stopped, I’d feel restless and unhappy. Either way, it was hard.
The human brain likes to avoid hard things. Why Because it was necessary for survival. When our ancestors lived in the wild, they had to hunt, search for food, fight rivals (对手), and escape predators (天敌). One wrong move and the result would be death.
Today, the world is much safer. But the human brain hasn’t changed much. That’s why, if you don’t resist, the brain chooses the easiest paths to solve problems.
So, if you want to achieve anything worthwhile, you need to override your brain’s default (默认的) setting and do uncomfortable things in the short term. In fact, doing hard things is one of the most powerful skills you can build. It can make your life exciting, meaningful, and free. It can change everything.
It’s backed by science. There is this brain region called the anterior midcingulate cortex (aMCC). It gets bigger in size when we do things that we don’t like. Studies have found that aMCC is smaller in obese people, larger in athletes, and grows when we do challenging stuff. And when we avoid those challenging stuff, aMCC shrinks. aMCC is seen to generate willpower and resilience. When you do more hard things, it boosts your aMCC, which further increases your ability to stay disciplined and achieve your daily goals.
Now, the first thing I do every day is something that feels uncomfortable — I’ve been waking up at 4 AM almost daily for the last two years. And it’s hard. But it does something magical. It makes me super disciplined and productive for the rest of the day. I feel more capable of tackling tasks that need deep focus.
We must all suffer from one of two pains: the pain of discipline or the pain of regret. The difference is discipline weighs ounces while regret weighs tons.
(1) How did the easy things make the author feel ___________________________________________________________________________________________
(2) Why does the human brain like to avoid hard things ___________________________________________________________________________________________
(3) Please decide which part is false in the following statement, then underline it and explain why.
Doing hard things reduces the size of your brain region called aMCC, which helps you stick to your plans and achieve daily goals.

(4) As for hard things, what can you learn from the article (In about 40 words)___________________________________________________________________________________________

【小题2】
Because it was essential for survival. In the wild, ancestors faced life-threatening situations if they made wrong moves while dealing with hard things.
【小题3】
Doing hard things reduces the size of your brain region called aMCC, which helps you stick to your plans and achieve daily goals.
Explanation: The passage clearly states that when we do challenging things, the anterior midcingulate cortex (aMCC) grows. So, doing hard things increases rather than reduces the size of aMCC.
【小题4】
We should understand that doing hard things is good for our growth. It can strengthen our willpower and make our lives more meaningful, so we should actively embrace them.
42.【答案】Dear Jim,
I am thrilled to learn that you plan to take part in the UN initiative 　　“Innovation for a Better Life”. Regarding your inquiry about the proposal, I strongly suggest focusing on digital education for remote areas.
The primary reason is that technology can bridge the educational divide, offering equal opportunities to underprivileged students. By developing accessible learning apps, we can empower them to acquire skills for a brighter future. Additionally, this innovation addresses the root cause of poverty and promotes sustainable development globally.
I hope my advice can be of help and wish you the best of luck!
Yours,
Li Hua
