We were sailing on a white boat through the clear waters of Turks and Caicos. The view was so beautiful that even my teenage daughter, Kavya, paused her usual rudeness to admire the scenery and breathe in the salty air.
Instead of relaxing by the pools, we had spent the previous day training for our big scuba trip. We took a course with written tests and did two exhausting pool practices. Now, the moment had arrived. Our instructor was about to place the helmets on our heads. I took a deep breath. This was it — my chance to connect with Kavya through a new experience, something we could finally share.
But suddenly, Kavya pulled my arm. Her face showed the same worried look she had during math homework. I could sense her emotions tightening under her diving suit. Just as the instructor approached, she whispered, “Dad, can I quit ” The waves sounded louder, the gear heavier. Surprisingly, I didn’t say what I normally would: “Quitting is not an option!” I even stopped myself from thinking, “But this was my plan.” Trying to give her a gentle hug in the heavy gear only resulted in me splashing water all over her and making us both laugh awkwardly.
When she was little, connecting with Kavya was effortless. I knew everything about her, and she always joined my adventures with pure excitement. But as she grew older, she discovered her own interests, drifting away from mine. What followed were sighs, eye-rolls, and half-hearted “I guess so” replies. I had hoped this scuba course would bring us closer again. I didn’t expect her quitting to hit me so hard or so suddenly.
Even without the dive, we enjoyed our vacation. We swam, collected seashells, and played word games. In those slow, quiet moments, I realized joy isn’t only in big adventures. It wasn’t the moment of closeness I had imagined — but it turned out to be exactly the one we needed.

Classics are the gems of the literary world. For years, people have read them to gain knowledge. But now, an increasing number of people instead enjoy these classics in online video series.
According to a 2023 report by the Chinese short-video platform Douyin, the views for book-related videos jumped by 65.17 percent year-on-year. As people become busier in competitive social environments, the brief literary explanations provided in short videos enable some to experience stories from a fresh perspective in fleeting moments. “I watch them on the subway, in a queue or before bed. Short videos combine text, images and expressions, providing a better experience than just reading text alone,” a man surnamed Zhang told Xinhua.
The fearsome length and complexity of classics are also reasons why some people, especially teenagers, are turning to literature vloggers for help. A Dream of Red Mansions is well-known for its detailed description of Chinese society, colorful characters and poetic language. It explores themes like family, society and human nature. However, these very qualities make the novel challenging for some students, who find it boring or even sleep-inducing. “There are so many characters in the novel, which confused me a lot,” said 12-year-old Shao Xinyan from Hubei. “Some vloggers use a mind map to clearly show their relationship.”
While reading with videos helps many people, some express different opinions and concerns. For Zhang Boren, a 13-year-old from Beijing, reading is a journey in which people form a personal connection with the text, not just absorbing facts. “Books that inspire my imagination, like fantasy adventures and historical stories, demand a deeper connection. Videos, although convenient, can’t fully present the small details of a well-written story,” said Zhang. Eighteen-year-old Wang Hongjie from Sichuan agreed, saying, “It may decrease readers’ ability to read independently and think deeply.”
8. Why do more people turn to short videos for classic literature
A．Short videos save time and offer vivid experiences.
B．Classic books are often too out-of-date to be popular.
C．They’re lacking in the motivation of reading completely.
D．Video platforms provide more and more book-related content.
9. What makes A Dream of Red Mansions challenging for some students
A．Its unfamiliar themes and brief description.
B．Its focus on ancient social culture in China.
C．Its poetic language and various characters.
D．Its unique writing features and target readers.
10. What is Zhang Boren’s opinion on enjoying classics via videos
A．Videos contribute more to inspiring imagination.
B．Reading books increases readers’ independence.
C．Reading books for readers is only to absorb facts.
D．Videos are unlikely to contain all original details.
11. What can be a suitable title for the text
A．“Watch” the Classics
B．“Update” the Videos
C．“Approach” Literature
D．“Play” with Vloggers
D
Many of us start exercising in the hope of losing unwanted pounds. Unquestionably, aiming to be more active is a good thing. But if the main reason is to lose weight, your resolution could very well come to nothing.
For starters, exercise is typically futile for weight loss. Take walking for example. A 150-pound person who walks for 30 minutes will burn, on average, around 140 calories. That’s equal to one can of soda — not exactly a great return on your investment of time and effort. It’s much easier just to skip the soda.
When exercise is added to a diet, the results are equally unimpressive. Researchers found that a combination of dieting and exercising brought no greater weight loss than dieting alone after six months. At 12 months, the diet-and-exercise combination showed an advantage, but it was slight — about 4 pounds.
In studies where exercise has produced meaningful weight loss, participants burned at least 400 to 500 calories per session on five or more days a week. To achieve that, a 150-pound person would need to walk a minimum of 90 minutes or run 30 minutes per day. In short, sessions need to go well beyond what most of us are willing or able to do. And even if we manage to make that much effort, our bodies often compensate by eagerness for more food and slowing down metabolism, effects that over time limit how many pounds we lose.
When exercise fails to meet our weight-loss expectations, we often stop working out. Perhaps the biggest problem with exercising to drop pounds is that it turns physical activity into punishment — a price we have to pay for a slimmer body. How many times have you heard someone say “I’ll need to do extra exercise” after eating too much We treat exercise as a form of self-punishment for being “bad.” In this case, we’re unlikely to keep doing it for very long.
The conclusion is that we’re more likely to treat exercise positively and actually do it when we focus on our well-being rather than our weight.
12. What does the underlined word “futile” in paragraph 2 mean
A．Necessary.
B．Popular.
C．Dangerous.
D．Useless.
13. What happens when you run 30 minutes on a daily basis
A．You will burn 140 calories every day.
B．You will lose 4 pounds in a month.
C．You might have a higher metabolic rate.
D．You might eat more than usual.
14. Why do people who want to lose weight through exercise often give up
A．They are unlikely to really enjoy it.
B．They find it too challenging physically.
C．They have difficulty resisting delicious food.
D．They turn their attention to their well-being.
15. What can be the best title for the text
A．How long should you exercise a day to lose weight
B．What are the best exercises for losing weight
C．Weight loss: why exercise is the wrong path
D．Exercise and weight loss: a pair of brothers
第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Many people think they need to walk 10,000 steps every day to be healthy. But new research shows this is not necessarily true for everyone. Scientists say that about 7,000 steps per day can already be good for your health. 16.________
Dr. Melody Ding did this study at the University of Sydney. 17.________ She wanted to know how many steps people need to stay healthy, and whether one number could work for most adults. The studies included people of different ages and lifestyles, so the results were more reliable.
18.________ People who walked around 7,000 steps were healthier than those who walked only about 2,000. In general, walking more was linked to a lower risk of dying early, and a lower risk of heart disease and dementia. The benefits increased quickly when people moved from very low activity to a moderate level. After that, the benefits still continued, but they rose more slowly.
Where does the 10,000 — step benchmark come from Dr. Sean Heffron says this number did not come from science. 19.________ A company made a pedometer and called it the “10,000 steps meter”. The number sounded simple and motivating, so it spread worldwide.
Dr. Martha Gulati, a heart doctor, does not fully trust round numbers like 10,000 because they are not always based on research. She suggests focusing on steady improvement instead of chasing one perfect number. 20.________ Just walk a little more than you do now — take the stairs, walk after dinner, or get off the bus one stop earlier. Small changes can add up and help your health.
A．The number was easy to remember.
B．The study gave people a simple answer.
C．It became popular because of advertising in Japan.
D．She reviewed many studies about walking and health.
E．If you can’t walk 10,000 steps every day, don’t worry.
F．The research compared people who walked different amounts each day.
G．This may make many people feel less stressed, especially those who are busy.

阅读下面短文，根据所给两段开头续写，词数150左右。
Last winter, I volunteered at a local community center that offered free teaching and after-school activities for children from families that have less money and fewer opportunities. At first, I wasn’t sure what to expect. The children seemed shy, some struggling with basic reading or math skills. I felt nervous, wondering if I could really help them.
During the first few days, I focused on simple tasks: reading stories aloud, helping with homework, and encouraging them when they got answers right. Gradually, I noticed small changes — a child who had never smiled before now laughed at jokes, another who was hesitant to speak out loud started asking questions confidently.
However, not everything went smoothly. One boy, Tom, was especially headstrong and refused to follow instructions. He often interrupted lessons, played jokes on younger children, and sometimes even walked out angrily. At first, I felt frustrated and unsure how to reach him. Once after he stormed off, I came to him and said, “I know you’re not being difficult — want to tell me what’s bothering you ” He stared at his shoes, silent, but didn’t walk away. That small moment felt like a crack in his wall — he still didn’t open up, but he didn’t push me away either.
One afternoon, the center organized a small talent show. Many children were excited but Tom refused to participate. Some volunteers wanted to pressure him, but I decided to give him space while offering encouragement. Slowly, he agreed to recite a short poem. Watching him stand on the stage and finish without quitting, I felt a deep sense of relief and pride. The applause from the children made me realize patience and understanding can solve problems far better than force. I also saw how important it was to create more opportunities for children like Tom to explore their talents and feel supported. Tom himself seemed a little more confident and willing to try new things, which gave me an idea for the next step in my volunteering work.
Paragraph 1: I knew I had to do more for Tom and the other children.

第二节 读后续写参考范文
Paragraph 1: I knew I had to do more for Tom and the other children. I talked with the center manager and set up an “Expression Corner”. Every afternoon after class, kids could come to share poems, small stories or short performances freely without pressure. I specially invited Tom to be the host, letting him arrange the activities. At first he hesitated, but soon he began to prepare materials carefully and help shy kids get ready to show themselves.
Paragraph 2: Tom changed clearly over the weeks. He no longer interrupted classes or made trouble. Instead, he became warm and helpful, always ready to comfort upset younger kids. He even took part in every sharing activity at the corner voluntarily. Watching his big smile, I truly realized that all kids just need patience, respect and a chance to show their inner brightness. This volunteer experience taught me love and tolerance can light up every child’s world.
