On the morning of April 20th, I woke up in a panic (恐慌), thinking it was 6 am, but in reality, it was still 3 am. I had a vivid dream where I had overslept. This kind of dream often occurred before important events. Even though I knew I was well-prepared, I couldn’t shake off the worry. After a restless sleep filled with more anxious dreams, my alarm finally went off.
I met my friend Jenny and we took an Uber to the race site. The first half marathon was unknown to us. The race began, and we navigated (穿过) through a lush forest. We celebrated each mile, but after some tough uphill sections, I began to worry about making it through. As we approached the halfway point, we were cheered on by other runners, which encouraged us further. The downhill journey back was amazing, and we cruised through the second half, deciding to hold hands and cross the finish line together. To our surprise, we won our age and gender group!
After the race, we were overjoyed but faced a minor problem — no cellphone service to call an Uber back. Luckily, we met Lisa, Amy, and Robin, fellow runners who offered us a ride. During the car ride, we shared stories about running and life. They inspired me with their passion for running and traveling the world. I loved how running was a universal language that connected people with shared goals of being outdoors and meeting new people. Their attitudes showed me that adulthood could be full of surprises and joy.
The half marathon has taught me that the best experiences do not come from the familiar and safe. I’ve realized that I’ll be able to overcome many other unknown challenges of adulthood. I don’t know what they are yet, but my new friends have shown me that adulthood has many beautiful surprises waiting. I can’t wait to see what the next 13.1miles of life will bring.

Have you ever questioned why someone is being unusually kind You’re not alone. We often instinctively look for hidden motives behind generous acts, a reaction psychologists call “do-gooder derogation.” This means we may judge a seemingly selfless person more harshly (严厉地) than someone who is openly self-interested.
A classic experiment, the “public goods game”, demonstrates this. Participants are given money and can choose to contribute to a shared pot, which grows and is later split equally. While contributing maximizes the group’s total gain, selfish individuals can contribute little and still benefit. Surprisingly, the most generous contributors in this game are often criticized as much as the selfish “free riders”.
Psychologist Nichola Raihani suggests we are all playing a social “status game”. We are suspicious of those who might be using kindness to boost their reputation. This suspicion is at the heart of the “tainted altruism effect”. Imagine a friend, Andy, volunteers at a homeless shelter. If we discover his true motive is to date the shelter manager, we judge him more severely than if he took a coffee shop job for the same reason. The charitable context makes the hidden motive seem worse.
Researcher Sebastian Hafenbradl explored this further. His studies confirmed that we judge people like Andy more harshly when they seek social rewards from a good deed. Interestingly, the judgment softens if the person is honest about their motive upfront, as this removes the “unearned social reward” of appearing purely altruistic (利他主义的). Furthermore, people who do good merely to feel good about themselves are judged less harshly than those seeking to enhance their reputation. Both acts contain self-interest, but seeking public approval is seen as more dishonest.
So, is any act truly selfless Perhaps not. But if the result is more kindness in the world, maybe we can forgive a little mixed motivation.
28. What is the purpose of mentioning the “public goods game” in paragraph 2
A．To support a social theory with evidence.
B．To explain the rules of a well-known game.
C．To introduce a popular economic experiment
D．To give an example of a psychological finding.
29. The “tainted altruism effect” is best shown in the case where ________.
A．an athlete’s fair win brings public honor.
B．a firm’s charity donation aims at a tax cut.
C．a student’s hard work targets a scholarship.
D．a volunteer’s sharing seeks to inspire others.
30. What did Sebastian Hafenbradi’s studies find
A．Seeking public approval shows the least honesty.
B．Hiding selfish motives results in gentler criticism.
C．Admitting selfish motives in advance reduces blame.
D．Acting for self-satisfaction draws the strongest criticism.
31. What is the author’s attitude towards mixed-motive kindness
A．Tolerant.
B．Indifferent.
C．Confused.
D．Critical.
D
Whether it’s a cup of coffee or tea, many people look for a caffeine (咖啡因) fix to kick-start their day. During waking hours, caffeine helps improve concentration. But how does it influence sleep
“A person’s sleep is unique to his body type, health and age,” said Lauri Leadley, the founder of the Valley Sleep Center in Arizona. “Everyone is genetically (基因地) programmed to follow the rising and setting of the sun. But caffeine can break this natural sleep-wake habit, influencing sleep.”
According to a 2022 review, adenosine levels are higher at night, meaning people feel sleepy by bedtime. Having caffeine controls it, which makes it difficult for people to fall asleep. Caffeine also controls other chemicals produced in the body. “When we have caffeine during the day, by nighttime it causes a fall in melatonin (褪黑激素), something that improves sleep, which is one of the reasons why sleep is influenced,” said Dr. Peter Polos, a sleep medicine specialist.
“Once in the body, caffeine remains for several hours, taking about 6 hours for half of its influence to disappear,” said Leadley. A 2013 study divided people into three groups, with people drinking caffeine 6 hours, 3 hours or immediately before bedtime. Even those who stopped drinking 6 hours before bed had their sleep cut by a whole hour.
However, caffeine doesn’t just influence how long you sleep but how well you sleep. “Studies show caffeine cuts down slow-wave sleep, the period of deep, restful sleep that leaves us feeling lively in the morning,” Polos said. It’s a period of sleep that seems to play an important role in growth, memory, and disease prevention. Most adults spend 10% to 20% of sleep on slow-wave sleep.
However, the influence of caffeine on a person is subject to things including age and genes. One 2017 review in the Sleep Medicine Reviews suggests that people become more sensitive to caffeine as they get older, while differences between people of the same age could be related to genetic differences.
32. How does caffeine influence people’s sleep
A．By changing people’s genes.
B．By increasing slow-wave sleep.
C．By cutting chemicals like melatonin.
D．By righting people’s sleep-wake cycle.
33. Why does the author mention the 2013 study
A．To introduce a new idea.
B．To back up Leadley’s argument.
C．To compare different studies.
D．To show the bad influence of caffeine.
34. What can we infer about slow-wave sleep
A．It is important to human health.
B．It influences the length of sleep.
C．It takes up less and less of sleep time.
D．It can be increased by more daytime rest.
35. Which section of the newspaper is the text probably taken from
A．Economy B．Culture C．Health D．Education

67. 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 cold, dark evening in mid-November, a sharp wind cut through the streets, but Jack paid little attention to the chill. As a delivery rider (外卖骑手), he had just finished a few smooth orders, his hands warm from the hot milk tea cups he’d been carrying, and his spirits fairly good. Stepping out of a milk tea shop, he found the spot where his second-hand electric bike had been parked now empty. Possibly, it had been stolen by a thief.
Panic (恐慌) set in as he remembered the undelivered orders (未送的订单) — especially a cup of hot milk tea for Ms. White, a regular customer. His hand trembled as he pressed the voice button, his words laced with sorrow and anxiety as he apologized repeatedly, offering to pay for the undelivered drink. To his great surprise, Ms. White did not respond with anger or complaint, but with gentle kindness. Ms. White told him not to worry and to take his time finding his bike.
Her understanding words calmed him, but also deepened his sense of responsibility. “She is so kind. I cannot let her down,” he thought. For nearly two hours, he searched every nearby street, but there was no sign of his bike. As night grew darker and the wind bit harder, he took out his poor savings, buying a bag of fresh apples and a new cup of hot milk tea, then set off on foot to Ms. White’s home, several kilometers away. The wind bit into his thin jacket, and his old shoes grew heavy with mud, but the thought of keeping his promise and maintaining his honesty kept him moving forward through the dimly lit urban landscape.
注意：
1.续写词数应为150个左右；
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Finally, Jack reached Ms. White’s home and rang the bell.

Deeply moved by Jack’s action, Ms. White decided to share the story online that night.
