Daily commuting (通 勤 ) has undergone a dramatic transformation over the past decade. Increasing
urbanization, environmental concerns, and rapid technological advancements have forced cities and individuals
alike to rethink how they travel. Today, commuters from diverse backgrounds encounter new challenges and
opportunities resulting from innovative transportation models that prioritize efficiency, sustainability, and
convenience. A data-driven approach reveals several noteworthy trends.
Modal share diversification: The percentage of commuters walking, using bikes, ride-sharing, and public
transportation has significantly increased.
Reduced commute time: Integrating multi-modal transportation and optimized (优 化 的 ) routes is
contributing to shorter travel time.
Shifts influenced by population: Younger generations, in particular, favor flexible commuting solutions over
traditional car ownership.
Consider the following table, which summarizes data trends from several major cities:
Increase in
Decrease in Car Average Commute City Alternative
Dependence(%) Time(mins) Transport(%)
New York City 25 15 35
第 3页/共 23页
London 30 20 32
Tokyo 20 10 28
Berlin 27 18 31
In response to heavy traffic in urban areas and changing lifestyle preferences, many cities have seen an
increase in non-traditional transportation models:
Bicycles and e-bikes: These environmentally friendly alternatives not only reduce emissions but also contribute to
overall public health improvements.
Ride-sharing services: Companies like Uber and Lyft have revolutionized short-distance travel, offering
convenient, on-demand rides that help supplement public transportation.
Carpooling and micro-transit: Innovations in scheduling and routing have led to more efficient carpooling models,
reducing the number of vehicles on the road.
Scooters and electric skateboards: Particularly popular in highly populated urban areas, these models provide
flexible, cost-effective mobility solutions for short trips.
As young generations continue to dominate urban spaces, the preference for flexible and
technology-integrated transportation models is more pronounced. And with rising costs associated with car
ownership, alternatives like ride-sharing and public transportation become increasingly attractive. These trends
highlight the complexity behind daily commuting choices and suggest preparedness to adapt as urban landscapes
shift.
1. How do commuters save their time spent on the way
A. By adopting on-demand mobility services.
B. By combining varied commuting models.
C. By employing real-time route optimization technology.
D. By integrating traditional and innovative transportation vehicles.
2. Which city witnesses the largest reduction in dependence on cars
A. New York City. B. Tokyo. C. Berlin. D. London.
3. What accounts for some commuters’ preference for ride-sharing and public transportation
A. Limited budgets for maintaining a car. B. The popularity of electric skateboards.
C. The desire to improve personal fitness. D. Reduced population in urban areas.

The video clip starts with a warning. “If you believe ignorance is bliss (福),” it says, “don’t watch this video.”
As an influencer slices fruit on a cutting board, a series of claims descend down the screen — about what she says
is actually in peanut butter and vanilla flavoring, among other things.
It’s the kind of post that has become common in the online wellness world, where high-profile voices often
express doubts about the establishment. But what makes this influencer unusual is her age. She’s only 17, and a
high school junior.
Ava Noe, a teenager based in the Boston area, has amassed more than 25,000 followers. She is just one of a
number of young influencers who appeal to other health-conscious kids their age. The teens’ videos, while at times
factually questionable, highlight a desire among some to avoid the chronic (慢性) illnesses and other conditions
that have long affected their elders.
But the health craze has unnerved medical experts and educators. Teens are sourcing health information from
wellness influencers, leading to misinformed or oversimplified views; some even want to become wellness
influencers themselves.
Ms. Noe started her own account in 2023, after she was diagnosed with anxiety disorder and began searching
for “alternative ways” to heal, she said. “I was just desperate for something.” She descended into a social media
rabbit hole and became fascinated by the idea of eating and living “clean.” Today, she likes to use chatbots to ask
about the benefits of, say, red light therapy (治疗) , and then read the suggested studies.
Danielle Shine, an accredited dietitian in Australia, urges people to consult qualified professionals for
nutritional information, not online posts that lean on “fear” and “sensationalism,” warning that certain content can
lead to medical complications and consequences.
Maintaining a healthy lifestyle, though, can get in the way of typical teenage pursuits. There are times, Ms.
Noe acknowledged, when she ends a night with friends early. “I just want to go home, do my red light therapy and
go to bed,” she said.
4. What purpose does the opening warning mainly serve
A. To question the video’s credibility. B. To establish guidelines for viewers.
C. To create anticipation for the content. D. To remove the influencer’s responsibility.
5. Which title would Ava Noe most likely use for her video
A. Medical Literature Overview B. Expert Roundtable on Living Clean
C. Why Conventional Wisdom Matters D. What They Don’t Want You to Know
6. What does Danielle Shine suggest people do
A. Post reliable information. B. Get over personal fear.
C. Seek expert consultation. D. Prepare for potential risks.
7. What does Ava Noe’s lifestyle suggest about her
A. Trend-following. B. Self-disciplined. C. Fun-loving D. Eco-aware.
【答案】4. C 5. D 6. C 7. B

Doctor Dolittle, the well-known, fictional naturalist who famously possesses the ability to converse with
animals and understand their languages has now inspired a high-paying science prize aimed at cracking the
challenge of interspecies communication. A grand prize of $500,000, awaits whichever research team can make
real progress: not just decoding the language of another species but using it to draw a reply from an animal. Last
week, an initial $100,000 went to a US team studying dolphin whistles — after decades of recording bottlenose
dolphins in Florida, they identified around 20 distinct messaging whistles.
The Coller Dolittle Challenge financed by Jeremy Coller, a vegan and animal lover, is unashamedly modelled
on the Turing test (图灵测试). That 20th-century test promotes efforts to design a machine capable of imitating
human conversation, and became a touchstone in the evolution of AI. It also became a focus for concerns about
machines tricking, even taking over, humans. The ability to commune with other species is likely to raise similar,
unsettling questions as research progresses. If we were able to decode animal chatter, should this knowledge
change how we treat them, whether as pets, labour or food The prize presents a moral challenge and it forces us to
reconsider our relationships with other species.
Philosopher Jonathan Birch, also a judge of the Jeremy Coller Centre, stressed that the Challenge is looking
beyond the interspecies communication we have with pets, or that a farmer has with a sheepdog. Those
relationships involve signalling and behavioural responses, Birch explains, “but that’s not telling us how animals
communicate with each other... this prize is about understanding it so well that we can start to join the conversation.”
While Coller hopes his charity will reshape our attitude to animals, the truth is that even groundbreaking
research has largely failed to move the dial on their welfare. Recent work on cephalopod’s (头 足 类 动 物 )
intelligence has not stopped plans to farm the creatures. We might one day be able to understand what animals are
saying — but there is no guarantee we will listen.
8. Why is Turing test mentioned in the passage
A. To stress its role and value in AI progress. B. To show its difference from the Challenge.
C. To warn of concerns the Challenge may face. D. To show its use in interspecies communication.
9. Which research would Birch approve of to win the prize
A. People communicating with their pets. B. People directing sheepdogs during work.
C. Researchers recording how cattle communicate. D. Researchers interacting with birds using whistles.
10. What does the “move the dial” mean in the last paragraph
A. Make a change. B. Win the prize.
C. Slow the process. D. Continue the research.
11. What’s the author’s attitude toward the practical effect of the research
A. Optimistic. B. Doubtful. C. Objective. D. Dismissive.
【答案】8. C 9. D 10. A 11. B
D
Once dismissed as a mental interference, daydreaming is undergoing a scientific reevaluation. In our
productivity-centered era, where multitasking reduces attention spans to mere seconds, this once-criticized mental
state is now recognized as a vital cognitive process. Groundbreaking studies from leading universities reveal its
multiple benefits, challenging conventional wisdom about focus and creativity.
Harvard neuroscientists recently demonstrated the mechanics behind this phenomenon. Their 2024 study in
Cognitive Psychology had 150 participants complete creative problem-solving tasks. Those practicing structured
daydreaming — guiding thoughts around specific themes like “future inventions” — did better than intensely
focused peers by 30%. Brain imaging revealed heightened activity in the default mode network (DMN), a neural
circuit previously mislabeled as idle during rest. “The DMN acts as a mental workshop,” explains lead researcher
Dr. Laura Bennett. “When consciously directed, it connects distant concepts — like linking childhood memories
to workplace challenges — to spark innovation.”
Another study from Stanford University highlights daydreaming’s role in emotional regulation. In controlled
trials, subjects who daydreamed for 10 minutes after high-stress simulations showed 25% lower stress hormone
levels and improved emotional clarity. “This isn’t escapism,” clarifies psychologist Dr. Emily Carter. “It’s the brain’
s self-maintenance mode, turning chaotic emotions into manageable narratives.”
Interestingly, daydreaming also improves long-term memory. A 2023 experiment at the University of
Cambridge showed that students who daydreamed during breaks between study sessions kept 20% more
information than those who didn’t. “This suggests that daydreaming helps consolidate learning,” notes Dr. James
Wilson.
Despite these benefits, experts caution against excessive daydreaming. It is indicated that excessive,
undirected daydreaming is linked to with a 17% increase in reality-disconnection symptoms among adolescents.
“While beneficial in moderation, too much daydreaming can lead to disengagement from reality,” warns Dr.
Bennett. Balancing focused work with periods of mindful daydreaming is key to achieving its full potential.
12. What was the conventional view of daydreaming
A. A vital cognitive process. B. A distraction of mental focus.
C. A way to improve memory. D. A method to enhance creativity.
13. What can be inferred about the brain’s default mode network (DMN)
A. It remains inactive during both rest and focused tasks.
B. It only activates during stressful situations to reduce anxiety.
C. It was once considered inactive but now known to link ideas.
D. It primarily strengthens long-term memory through conscious effort.
14. Which real-life situation best matches the research findings on daydreaming
A. A student avoids all breaks to maintain focus.
B. An artist schedules deliberate “mind-wandering time”.
C. A teacher bans daydreaming in class to ensure discipline.
D. A programmer works 12-hour shifts without mental pauses.
15. Which outcome is associated with structured daydreaming in the text
A. Disengagement from reality.
B. Decreased long-term memory.
C. Strengthened stress and anxiety.
D. Enhanced emotional management.

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。
As a doctor at a famous hospital in a big city, my aid to a remote village is firm and unshakable. More than a
medical volunteer but as a friend and family. The aid has been a test for all of us where we have all discovered a
deeper sense of unity and purpose. The aid also has built a bond between us, one that will grow stronger with each
more visit.
On a summer afternoon, the heat was almost unbearable, the air thick with the promise of a storm. I was aware
of the urgency of our mission in the remote village. The village was accessible only via a narrow dirt road, and we
had to complete the medical consultations before dark.
Shortly after I treated the last patient, an emergency made me nervous. A villager had been stung by an
unknown insect and was experiencing a severe allergic (过敏的) reaction. Time was of the essence; it could be fatal
if not treated timely.
I swiftly coordinated a response: a team, which included a local guide familiar with the shortcuts through the
dense forest separating us from the nearest hospital. We gently moved the victim onto a stretcher (担架) and we
began the race against time.
The journey was filled with challenges. The forest was a puzzle of shadows and whispers, with damp and
dangerous bushes. As it was night, our progress was slowed by the need to guided by the dim light of our
flashlights (手电). The villager’s breathing became difficult, and his pain was clear.
In the distance, a weak but growing sound of a helicopter cut through the silence of the night — a rescue
team was on its way. However, the trees were too dense for a safe landing. We needed to act fast, but the helicopter
didn’t find us for a long time. Suddenly, an idea occurred to me when we were nearly desperate.

【答案】
I used our flashlights to shine on the dark sky. It was a flash of hope, a brilliant streak of color against the dark.
The helicopter responded, circling lower, its searchlight passing through the night as it located us. We hurriedly
cleared a small area, pushing aside fallen branches to create a landing place. The rescue team’s arrival was a
masterful display of efficiency. The villager was quickly yet carefully transferred to the helicopter, which lifted off
as swiftly as it had landed, disappearing into the night sky.
We returned to the village and found that the villagers were still waiting for us. Obviously, they were eager to
know the situation of the injured. I told them that the villager had received timely medical assistance and the doctor
said there should be nothing very serious about him. Upon hearing this, all the villagers breathed a sigh of relief.
After expressing their gratitude to me, they slowly went back home. Sensing their sincere heart, I truly realized the
significance of medical aid and was more determined to continue this career.2026 广西名校高考素养评估信息调研

Daily commuting (通 勤 ) has undergone a dramatic transformation over the past decade. Increasing
urbanization, environmental concerns, and rapid technological advancements have forced cities and individuals
alike to rethink how they travel. Today, commuters from diverse backgrounds encounter new challenges and
opportunities resulting from innovative transportation models that prioritize efficiency, sustainability, and
convenience. A data-driven approach reveals several noteworthy trends.
Modal share diversification: The percentage of commuters walking, using bikes, ride-sharing, and public
transportation has significantly increased.
Reduced commute time: Integrating multi-modal transportation and optimized (优 化 的 ) routes is
contributing to shorter travel time.
Shifts influenced by population: Younger generations, in particular, favor flexible commuting solutions over
traditional car ownership.
Consider the following table, which summarizes data trends from several major cities:

London 30 20 32
Tokyo 20 10 28
Berlin 27 18 31
In response to heavy traffic in urban areas and changing lifestyle preferences, many cities have seen an
increase in non-traditional transportation models:
Bicycles and e-bikes: These environmentally friendly alternatives not only reduce emissions but also contribute to
overall public health improvements.
Ride-sharing services: Companies like Uber and Lyft have revolutionized short-distance travel, offering
convenient, on-demand rides that help supplement public transportation.
Carpooling and micro-transit: Innovations in scheduling and routing have led to more efficient carpooling models,
reducing the number of vehicles on the road.
Scooters and electric skateboards: Particularly popular in highly populated urban areas, these models provide
flexible, cost-effective mobility solutions for short trips.
As young generations continue to dominate urban spaces, the preference for flexible and
technology-integrated transportation models is more pronounced. And with rising costs associated with car
ownership, alternatives like ride-sharing and public transportation become increasingly attractive. These trends
highlight the complexity behind daily commuting choices and suggest preparedness to adapt as urban landscapes
shift.
1. How do commuters save their time spent on the way
A. By adopting on-demand mobility services.
B. By combining varied commuting models.
C. By employing real-time route optimization technology.
D. By integrating traditional and innovative transportation vehicles.
2. Which city witnesses the largest reduction in dependence on cars
A. New York City. B. Tokyo. C. Berlin. D. London.
3. What accounts for some commuters’ preference for ride-sharing and public transportation
A. Limited budgets for maintaining a car. B. The popularity of electric skateboards.
C. The desire to improve personal fitness. D. Reduced population in urban areas.

The video clip starts with a warning. “If you believe ignorance is bliss (福),” it says, “don’t watch this video.”
As an influencer slices fruit on a cutting board, a series of claims descend down the screen — about what she says
is actually in peanut butter and vanilla flavoring, among other things.
It’s the kind of post that has become common in the online wellness world, where high-profile voices often
express doubts about the establishment. But what makes this influencer unusual is her age. She’s only 17, and a
high school junior.
Ava Noe, a teenager based in the Boston area, has amassed more than 25,000 followers. She is just one of a
number of young influencers who appeal to other health-conscious kids their age. The teens’ videos, while at times
factually questionable, highlight a desire among some to avoid the chronic (慢性) illnesses and other conditions
that have long affected their elders.
But the health craze has unnerved medical experts and educators. Teens are sourcing health information from
wellness influencers, leading to misinformed or oversimplified views; some even want to become wellness
influencers themselves.
Ms. Noe started her own account in 2023, after she was diagnosed with anxiety disorder and began searching
for “alternative ways” to heal, she said. “I was just desperate for something.” She descended into a social media
rabbit hole and became fascinated by the idea of eating and living “clean.” Today, she likes to use chatbots to ask
about the benefits of, say, red light therapy (治疗) , and then read the suggested studies.
Danielle Shine, an accredited dietitian in Australia, urges people to consult qualified professionals for
nutritional information, not online posts that lean on “fear” and “sensationalism,” warning that certain content can
lead to medical complications and consequences.
Maintaining a healthy lifestyle, though, can get in the way of typical teenage pursuits. There are times, Ms.
Noe acknowledged, when she ends a night with friends early. “I just want to go home, do my red light therapy and
go to bed,” she said.
4. What purpose does the opening warning mainly serve
A. To question the video’s credibility. B. To establish guidelines for viewers.
C. To create anticipation for the content. D. To remove the influencer’s responsibility.
5. Which title would Ava Noe most likely use for her video
A. Medical Literature Overview B. Expert Roundtable on Living Clean
C. Why Conventional Wisdom Matters D. What They Don’t Want You to Know
6. What does Danielle Shine suggest people do
A. Post reliable information. B. Get over personal fear.
C. Seek expert consultation. D. Prepare for potential risks.
7. What does Ava Noe’s lifestyle suggest about her
A. Trend-following. B. Self-disciplined. C. Fun-loving D. Eco-aware.
C
Doctor Dolittle, the well-known, fictional naturalist who famously possesses the ability to converse with
animals and understand their languages has now inspired a high-paying science prize aimed at cracking the
challenge of interspecies communication. A grand prize of $500,000, awaits whichever research team can make
real progress: not just decoding the language of another species but using it to draw a reply from an animal. Last
week, an initial $100,000 went to a US team studying dolphin whistles — after decades of recording bottlenose
dolphins in Florida, they identified around 20 distinct messaging whistles.
The Coller Dolittle Challenge financed by Jeremy Coller, a vegan and animal lover, is unashamedly modelled
on the Turing test (图灵测试). That 20th-century test promotes efforts to design a machine capable of imitating
human conversation, and became a touchstone in the evolution of AI. It also became a focus for concerns about
machines tricking, even taking over, humans. The ability to commune with other species is likely to raise similar,
unsettling questions as research progresses. If we were able to decode animal chatter, should this knowledge
change how we treat them, whether as pets, labour or food The prize presents a moral challenge and it forces us to
reconsider our relationships with other species.
Philosopher Jonathan Birch, also a judge of the Jeremy Coller Centre, stressed that the Challenge is looking
beyond the interspecies communication we have with pets, or that a farmer has with a sheepdog. Those
relationships involve signalling and behavioural responses, Birch explains, “but that’s not telling us how animals
communicate with each other... this prize is about understanding it so well that we can start to join the conversation.”
While Coller hopes his charity will reshape our attitude to animals, the truth is that even groundbreaking
research has largely failed to move the dial on their welfare. Recent work on cephalopod’s (头 足 类 动 物 )
intelligence has not stopped plans to farm the creatures. We might one day be able to understand what animals are
saying — but there is no guarantee we will listen.
8. Why is Turing test mentioned in the passage
A. To stress its role and value in AI progress. B. To show its difference from the Challenge.
C. To warn of concerns the Challenge may face. D. To show its use in interspecies communication.
9. Which research would Birch approve of to win the prize
A. People communicating with their pets. B. People directing sheepdogs during work.
C. Researchers recording how cattle communicate. D. Researchers interacting with birds using whistles.
10. What does the “move the dial” mean in the last paragraph
A. Make a change. B. Win the prize.
C. Slow the process. D. Continue the research.
11. What’s the author’s attitude toward the practical effect of the research
A. Optimistic. B. Doubtful. C. Objective. D. Dismissive.
D
Once dismissed as a mental interference, daydreaming is undergoing a scientific reevaluation. In our
productivity-centered era, where multitasking reduces attention spans to mere seconds, this once-criticized mental
state is now recognized as a vital cognitive process. Groundbreaking studies from leading universities reveal its
multiple benefits, challenging conventional wisdom about focus and creativity.
Harvard neuroscientists recently demonstrated the mechanics behind this phenomenon. Their 2024 study in
Cognitive Psychology had 150 participants complete creative problem-solving tasks. Those practicing structured
daydreaming — guiding thoughts around specific themes like “future inventions” — did better than intensely
focused peers by 30%. Brain imaging revealed heightened activity in the default mode network (DMN), a neural
circuit previously mislabeled as idle during rest. “The DMN acts as a mental workshop,” explains lead researcher
Dr. Laura Bennett. “When consciously directed, it connects distant concepts — like linking childhood memories
to workplace challenges — to spark innovation.”
Another study from Stanford University highlights daydreaming’s role in emotional regulation. In controlled
trials, subjects who daydreamed for 10 minutes after high-stress simulations showed 25% lower stress hormone
levels and improved emotional clarity. “This isn’t escapism,” clarifies psychologist Dr. Emily Carter. “It’s the brain’
s self-maintenance mode, turning chaotic emotions into manageable narratives.”
Interestingly, daydreaming also improves long-term memory. A 2023 experiment at the University of
Cambridge showed that students who daydreamed during breaks between study sessions kept 20% more
information than those who didn’t. “This suggests that daydreaming helps consolidate learning,” notes Dr. James
Wilson.
Despite these benefits, experts caution against excessive daydreaming. It is indicated that excessive,
undirected daydreaming is linked to with a 17% increase in reality-disconnection symptoms among adolescents.
“While beneficial in moderation, too much daydreaming can lead to disengagement from reality,” warns Dr.
Bennett. Balancing focused work with periods of mindful daydreaming is key to achieving its full potential.
12. What was the conventional view of daydreaming
A. A vital cognitive process. B. A distraction of mental focus.
C. A way to improve memory. D. A method to enhance creativity.
13. What can be inferred about the brain’s default mode network (DMN)
A. It remains inactive during both rest and focused tasks.
B. It only activates during stressful situations to reduce anxiety.
C. It was once considered inactive but now known to link ideas.
D. It primarily strengthens long-term memory through conscious effort.
14. Which real-life situation best matches the research findings on daydreaming
A. A student avoids all breaks to maintain focus.
B. An artist schedules deliberate “mind-wandering time”.
C. A teacher bans daydreaming in class to ensure discipline.
D. A programmer works 12-hour shifts without mental pauses.
15. Which outcome is associated with structured daydreaming in the text
A. Disengagement from reality.
B. Decreased long-term memory.
C. Strengthened stress and anxiety.
D. Enhanced emotional management.

As a doctor at a famous hospital in a big city, my aid to a remote village is firm and unshakable. More than a
medical volunteer but as a friend and family. The aid has been a test for all of us where we have all discovered a
deeper sense of unity and purpose. The aid also has built a bond between us, one that will grow stronger with each
more visit.
On a summer afternoon, the heat was almost unbearable, the air thick with the promise of a storm. I was aware
of the urgency of our mission in the remote village. The village was accessible only via a narrow dirt road, and we
had to complete the medical consultations before dark.
Shortly after I treated the last patient, an emergency made me nervous. A villager had been stung by an
unknown insect and was experiencing a severe allergic (过敏的) reaction. Time was of the essence; it could be fatal
if not treated timely.
I swiftly coordinated a response: a team, which included a local guide familiar with the shortcuts through the
dense forest separating us from the nearest hospital. We gently moved the victim onto a stretcher (担架) and we
began the race against time.
The journey was filled with challenges. The forest was a puzzle of shadows and whispers, with damp and
dangerous bushes. As it was night, our progress was slowed by the need to guided by the dim light of our
flashlights (手电). The villager’s breathing became difficult, and his pain was clear.
In the distance, a weak but growing sound of a helicopter cut through the silence of the night — a rescue
team was on its way. However, the trees were too dense for a safe landing. We needed to act fast, but the helicopter
didn’t find us for a long time. Suddenly, an idea occurred to me when we were nearly desperate.

I used our flashlights to shine on the dark sky.
