The online world is like a jungle — full of interesting things to discover, people to meet, and places to explore. However, it’s important to remember that there are hidden dangers that many young people may not notice right away. To better understand these risks, an institute has analyzed 5.6 billion online activities over the past decade, revealing shocking facts about teens’ unsafe online interactions. Here is the result.
How To Set Up Privacy Settings
Check privacy settings on every app and site you use. Most platforms hide them in the account menu, but these settings help you control who can find you and see your posts. To make things easier, here’s a simple checklist you can use on most social media platforms.
Setting What to do
Profile visibility Set to friends only
Search visibility Turn off public search
Photo tagging Approve tags (标记) before they show up
Contact sync (同步) Don’t let the app auto-add friends
Ad tracking Turn off personalized ads
Think Before You Post
Once it’s online, it could be there forever — even if you delete it. Screenshots exist, and people can save what you share. So, don’t post personal information for everyone to see, such as your full name, school, home address, phone number, or your current location. Before you post, it is recommended that you ask yourself:
● Would I care if my parents see this
● Could this mess up my reputation later
● Am I giving away too much
● Could someone use this info to find me or hurt me
1. What online behavior among teens saw the highest growth rate from 2014 to 2025
A．Using personal photos as avatars.
B．Sharing private information online.
C．Responding to messages from strangers.
D．Meeting online-only contacts in person.
2. Which setting allows only your friends to see your posted photos
A．Contact sync.
B．Search visibility.
C．Photo tagging.
D．Profile visibility.
3. What advice does the author give teenagers about online behavior

“I’m Sydney Barta, a girly girl. I love pink, shoes, and everything girly. I only have one foot, but I have so many shoes.” I laughed when being asked in an interview. I wear heels too, though I don’t have a false leg that fits them — I just use tape to put them on.
I was six years old when I lost my leg. My twin brother and I were at a fun run. A big metal scaffold (脚手架) blew over in the wind and clipped my ankle. It could have killed me. I just feel so lucky that the only thing I lost that day was my leg.
Now I’m a five-time U.S. Paralympic champion and the first disabled athlete to run for Stanford. I’m also a Rhodes Scholar applying to medical school, looking ahead to the 2028 Paralympics. But when I was six, lying in a hospital bed, my mother showed me a photo of a famous disabled athlete to comfort me. He was a man. “It wasn’t girly at all,” I remember thinking. “I was a ballet dancer before the accident, and I love pink.”
The summer before my junior year, I was running my last race before the Paralympic trials. I pushed over the finish line and felt my foot crack. I broke the key arch bone in my only foot. I thought my Paralympic dreams were over. But that injury showed me my calling: to be a doctor who understands the athlete’s experience, who knows how a severe injury can be when it threatens to take away your sport and your identity.
After I broke my foot, I thought I was done with running. But then I got a call from the head coach of Stanford track. “I put you on the team,” he said. I was thrilled. That just goes to show — you never know.
I hope to be a role model for young girls who have lost a leg. I know that if a little girl is going through something like that now, when she scrolls online, she can see someone like me. Maybe even me.

C．Don’t judge a book by its cover.
D．Fortune favors the prepared mind.

“You’re so smart!” This encouraging response to children’s math performance is commonly heard. Recently, a new study, conducted by the University of Georgia, found that encouraging children with responses related to their personal characteristics or inborn abilities might weaken their math motivation and achievement over time.
Parents who make comments linking their children’s performance to personal characteristics like intelligence are using what’s referred to as person responses. In contrast, parents who link their children’s actions, such as efforts or strategy use, to their performance are using process responses.
For the study, researchers asked more than 500 parents to report on how they responded to their children’s math performance and their math beliefs and goals. Children were assessed in two waves across a year to measure their math motivation and achievement.
The results show that parents who view math ability as changeable are more likely to give process responses focused on their children’s strategy use and efforts rather than their intelligence or other personal characteristics. In contrast, parents who believe math ability is unchangeable and that math failure can’t be constructive give more person responses. Parents with high expectations for their children give a combination of both responses. While responses highlighting strategy and efforts are not related to any achievement outcomes, children who receive more responses about their personal characteristics -- in particular, related to failure -- are more likely to avoid harder math problems, exhibit higher levels of math anxiety, and score lower on math achievement tests.
Because person responses predict poor math adjustment in children over time, researchers suggest parents limit this type of responses at home. Another recommendation for parents is to think about their own beliefs and goals for their kids and examine how these might lead them to respond in person or process ways. Simply telling parents to avoid talking about math ability may not be enough. Focusing less on how children perform and more on their strategy and enjoyment of math might be a more effective way to enhance motivation.
8. Which of the following is an example of process response
A．You are a lucky dog.
B．Running is in your blood.
C．What works well for your study
D．Why are you such a math genius
9. What can be inferred from the study results
A．Parents prefer to give more process responses.
B．Children are more likely to be affected by math anxiety.
C．Process responses help with children’s math achievement.
D．Person responses can discourage children from learning math.
10. What do researchers advise parents to do
A．Restrict person responses.
B．Defend their own beliefs.
C．Stress children’s performance.
D．Ignore children’s math problems.
11. Which can be a suitable title for the text
A．The Strategy Children Adopt to Learn Math Helps
B．The Way Parents Talk to Children on Math Matters
C．Responses to Enhance Children’s Math Performance
D．Suggestions for Parents to Teach Their Children Math
D
For decades, scientists thought of the brain as the most valuable and consequently most closely guarded part of the body. Locked safely behind the blood-brain barrier, it was broadly free of the harm of viruses and the battles started by the immune system (免疫系统). Then, about 20 years ago, some researchers began to wonder: is the brain really so separated from the body The answer, according to a growing body of evidence, is no.
The list of brain conditions that have been associated with changes elsewhere in the body is long and growing. Changes in the makeup of the microorganisms in the digestive system have been linked to disorders such as Parkinson’s disease. There is also a theory that infection during pregnancy could lead to brain diseases in babies.
The effect is two-way. There is a lengthening list of symptoms not typically viewed as disorders of the nervous system, but the brain plays a large part in them. For example, the development of a fever is influenced by a population of nerve cells that control body temperature and appetite. Evidence is mounting that cancers use nerves to grow and spread.
The interconnection between the brain and body has promising implications for our ability to both understand and treat illnesses. If some brain disorders start outside the brain, then perhaps treatments for them could also reach in from outside. Treatments that take effect through the digestive system, the heart or other organs, would be much easier and less risky than those that must cross the blood-brain barrier.
It also works in the opposite direction. Study shows mice have healthier hearts after receiving stimulation to a brain area involved in positive emotion and motivation. Activation of the brain reward centre — called the ventral tegmental area (VTA) — seems to cause immune changes that contribute to it. Working out how this happens could help to destroy cancers, enhance responses to vaccines and even re-evaluate physical diseases that, for centuries, have not been considered as being psychologically driven.
12. What do the researchers focus on about the brain
A．Its protecting system.
B．Its exposure to diseases.
C．Its controlling function.
D．Its connection to the body.
13. How does the author support his idea in paragraph 2
A．By explaining a theory.
B．By providing examples.
C．By making comparisons.
D．By presenting cause and effect.
14. Which best describes treatments that do not cross the blood-brain barrier
A．Cheaper.
B．More specific.
C．Safer.
D．More direct.
15. What does the study suggest in the last paragraph
A．Brain health depends on immune changes.
B．Brain stimulation leads to negative emotions.
C．The brain can help enhance psychological health.
D．The brain may be key to treating physical diseases.
七选五
As a high school student, you’re likely used to learning through reading textbooks. ____16____ This lies at the heart of “experiential appreciation,” a philosophy that encourages you to engage directly with the world around you. It’s about learning from real-life experiences, and discovering a more profound and engaging way to learn.
To practice experiential appreciation, you can start by getting involved in hands-on activities related to your subjects.

____19____ After trying something new, ask yourself what you learned and how it made you feel. Write in a journal or discuss it with friends. This self-discovery turns experiences into life lessons and offers a deeper understanding of the world.
Experiential appreciation transforms learning from a task to be completed into a journey to be treasured. ____20____ So, explore the world around you, let every experience shape you, and discover the endless possibilities that await. This is the core of true learning, where every moment is a step towards a richer, more enlightened life.

五、书面表达
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。
On a hot September afternoon, Peter and his friend Isabel were on their way to the library. When they passed by Tubman park, Isabel suggested cutting through it to get to the library. As they entered the park, the sight of the swings (秋千) and the merry-go-round brought back a flood of memories of their childhood spent there. But now everything looked so old, sad, and dirty. Litter lay on the ground next to an overflowing trash bin. Some young schoolchildren were still playing there but they had to avoid the trash that littered the playground. A little boy told them that the city took the other trash cans away and the only one left hardly ever got emptied.
As they headed toward the library, the two high school students felt heavy with concern. In the library, they met Mrs. Evans, their kind-hearted fifth-grade teacher, retired yet still cared deeply about the community. They eagerly told her what they had seen in the park. Mrs. Evans listened carefully and then suggested they go to the City Hall to speak up.
The next day, Isabel and Peter went into the City Hall, but were met with an impatient officer. He told them that the city had a tight budget, so there was nothing they could do. Discouraged but not ready to give up, the two turned back to Mrs. Evans for advice.
She recommended they reach out to Go Green, a non-profit organization focused on protecting the environment. “They’re great at raising money for projects just like yours,” she said. She promised to set up a meeting where they could present their ideas. Their faces lit up with hope.
Two big tasks lay ahead: researching a practical solution and preparing a convincing presentation. As Isabel was good at researching while Peter always had a talent for speaking, they cooperated quite well. Isabel learned from a science magazine that a new type of trash bin can squeeze the trash down without being emptied often, which saves time, money, and energy. Based on this, Peter practiced his presentation over and over again.
注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
A week later, Peter stood in front of the Go Green committee, nervous but ready.

After the meeting, the head of Go Green walked over to Peter and Isabel with a smile.

A week later, Peter stood in front of the Go Green committee, nervous but ready. He calmly introduced the terrible mess in Tubman Park and shared the new trash bin type Isabel had found. He explained that these bins could cut cleaning costs and keep the park tidy for all residents. His clear, sincere speech impressed every member present, who asked several detailed questions about the plan. Peter answered them confidently with all the data they had collected.
After the meeting, the head of Go Green walked over to Peter and Isabel with a smile. He told them the organization fully supported their project and would offer money to buy new trash bins. Soon, volunteers including local students came to clean up the whole park. With new bins placed everywhere, Tubman Park regained its beauty. Peter and Isabel felt proud, knowing small efforts could make a big difference to their community.
