Bougatsa Bantis
The city’s iconic phyllo pastry (千层油酥点心) is filled with sweet fillings, salty cheese, or spinach. Run by a 3rd-generation family, it carries the rich culinary heritage of Greek refugees from Cappadocia, who brought this beloved recipe to the city in the 1920s.

As a fashion designer who transitioned from dressing rock stars to making jeans for aging women, I thought aging meant reinventing yourself — finding new ways to feel confident and beautiful. However, I didn’t perceive it until I was diagnosed (诊断) with breast cancer at 71 and beat it three years later at 74.
When I was younger, I thought, I’m never gonna get old. I harbored a lot of misconceptions about old age. I thought it meant slowing down, losing your vitality, and having no goals or excitement in life.
While I was receiving treatment, I experienced a truly crucial moment. One day, the nurses excitedly called a patient named Sheila, telling her how they had saved her a few of her favorite sandwiches. I was a little envious! I assumed she was a soap opera star, a TV program host, or someone with a big name. It turned out she was a homeless woman who had been abused and was living in a shelter with her child. She had Stage Ⅲ breast cancer just like me. The food in the shelter was so terrible that those sandwiches were going to be her one meal a day for the next three days. It gave me a whole new perspective.
By the time I finished with treatment, I saw life differently. And I wanted to share my journey and the lessons I learned with others. So, I decided to start a podcast called Too Young to Be Old, also the name of my second book. I hope to inspire others to embrace their own aging process and live life to the fullest.
That experience taught me everything I needed to know to handle the rest of my life. It taught me sympathy, care and understanding, and helped me realize how precious life is. Cancer is a great leveler and a great revealer; it doesn’t care if you’re wealthy or beautiful. Now my life is filled with gratitude, and I never pass up a moment to think about how lucky I am — not just lucky to continue to be alive, but lucky to have learned that lesson in understanding.
4. What is the author’s original view on aging
A．Reinventing oneself.
B．Losing enthusiasm.
C．Starting new projects.
D．Requiring others’ care.
5. Why did nurses save sandwiches for Sheila
A．To please her.
B．To raise funds.
C．To support the shelter.
D．To provide nutrition.
6. What can we learn about the author after her treatment
A．She takes a good rest at home.
B．She helps the homeless in shelter.
C．She tries to share her life insight.
D．She writes stories about the youth.
7. What message does the author convey in the last paragraph
A．Aging is an unavoidable process.
B．Facing diseases is easy for the wealthy.
C．Cancer can be overcome through joint efforts.
D．Life value can be discovered through challenges.
C
Wayfinding —the art of navigating using the wind, stars, ocean swells, and other environmental cues —was how sailors from the Marquesas Islands first discovered Hawaii more than 1500 years ago. These skills are helping to restore a sense of pride in Pacific Island culture and heritage. But beyond that, wayfinding holds surprising relevance for the rest of us landlubbing urbanites (从未出过海的城里人), even if we have no intention of crossing vast oceans in a canoe.
Wayfinding is how humans have found their way for most of our existence. It’s what enabled the aboriginals, Arab nomads and Inuits to journey across monotonous (单调的) yet shifting landscapes of land, desert, and ice. Traditional navigation is about “using everything that’s provided to you in nature”, says Junior Coleman, who oversees sailing and seamanship in his own company. “We use all the elements and forces in nature —the sun, stars, moon, waves, currents, clouds and different animals. All of those.”
One of Coleman’s favorite cues, for instance, is the North Star. “It’s very reliable when you sail north of the equator. As you go towards it, it appears to get higher in the sky, so it kind of corresponds with your latitude (纬度). Another cue is ocean swells —waves formed by permanent weather systems, such as trade winds, that can travel hundreds of miles. Subtle changes in their refraction (折射) patterns can indicate an island and its location. But learning to “read” such swells is one of the hardest skills to master—navigators often speak of lying down on their canoes to feel, rather than see, such waves.
Coleman encourages everyone to give natural navigation a go, “I promise you, the brain just loves it,” he says, “there’s almost no other art that I can think of where you can exercise your brain in a fantastically positive way.”
8. What’s the function of the first paragraph
A．To put forward an argument.
B．To describe a historical fact.
C．To make readers think deeply.
D．To introduce the topic of the text.
9. What does the second paragraph mainly talk about
A．Junior Coleman succeeded in the journey across desert.
B．Traditional navigation has played a vital role throughout.
C．Ancient people were good at finding ways in the wild.
D．Nature elements provide everything people need in navigation.
10. How to use waves to navigate according to the text
A．By observing the height of the waves.
B．By lying down and listening to the waves.
C．By noticing certain changes of the waves.
D．By following the direction the waves go to.
11. What does Junior Coleman think of natural navigation
A．Potential-inspiring.
B．Mind-challenging.
C．Time-consuming.
D．Logic-strengthening.
D
Parents hoping to raise bilingual (说双语的) children have long been given the advice to employ a strict one-parent-one-language approach. However, the findings from Concordia University’s Infant Research Lab indicate that many families in Montreal don’t abide by this model, with both parents frequently using both languages when communicating with their children. “This made sense to us, because there are a lot of adults in Montreal who are actively bilingual,” says Andrea Sander-Montant, lead author of the study.
The researchers analyzed data from 300 families taking part in the lab’s research between 2013 and 2020. They identified four main strategies used by the families: one-parent-one-language, both-parents-bilingual, one-parent-bilingual (where one parent uses both languages and the other uses one) and one-language-at-home (where one language is used at home and another one is used outside the home, such as at daycare) .
The study found there wasn’t a single strategy that could be singled out as “best” to raise a child bilingually. But when they looked at parents’ language use individually rather than the family’s overall strategy, the researchers had an unexpected and striking finding: mothers had up to twice the impact on language exposure compared to fathers. The influence of mothers was particularly clear in heritage-language families.
“We think this may be the case because mothers still spend more time at home than fathers. There may also be cultural factors at play; where mothers feel it is their responsibility to transmit (传播) the language,” says Sander-Montant.
“This points to a new way of talking about transmitting languages,” says Krista Byers-Heinlein, a professor in the Department of Psychology. “Rather than stressing about using this or that strategy, families can make a calculation of who is spending time with the child and then figure out how the child can receive enough experience in both languages from fluent speakers.” The researchers believe these findings will have a real-world impact for policymakers, health care workers and educators who closely work with and give advice to bilingual families.
12. What does the underlined phrase “abide by” in paragraph 1 refer to
A．Follow. B．Perceive. C．Oppose. D．Transform.
13. What is the key factor in leading to the breakthrough of the study
A．Long-held parenting beliefs.
B．Conventional language guidelines.
C．Individual parental language use.
D．Main strategies in bilingual families.
14. Why does the author quote Sander-Montant’s words in paragraph 4
A．To introduce another topic.
B．To prove the finding reasonable.
C．To highlight the role of mothers.
D．To provide essential background.
15. What is Byers-Heinlein’s suggestion for bilingual parents
A．Sending children to bilingual schools.
B．Hiring a full-time language teacher.
C．Seeking advice from health care professionals.
D．Fully exposing kids to both fluent languages.
七选五
When talking about fitness, most of us will think of six-pack stomach muscles. We often take these as a sign of good health, but actually they tell little about healthy aging. Many even mix these surface muscles up with core strength.
The core is far more than visible abdominal (腹部的) muscles. It is a connected system of deep muscles like the side stomach muscles and back spine muscles, working together. ____16____ This system helps keep the backbone steady, controls pressure inside the stomach, and works as the base for nearly all movements, including breathing and lifting daily things. The side stomach muscles are a typical example. ____17____
By contrast, surface abdominal exercises like situps for six-packs do not serve the real goal. These workouts target only a small part of the abdominal muscles and engage just the surface ones, while they are neglecting the deep core muscles that play an important part in keeping the body stable for a long time and preventing pain. ____18____ They help improve abdominal endurance and shape a firm waist, a beauty goal many people strive for. The key point is that for those who prioritize long-term health over the appearance of six-pack muscles, focusing on deep core strength training is essential.
____19____ Developing core strength reduces the risk of falls by 40% in seniors, improves posture, and helps keep independence in daily activities like dressing and bathing in later life. All these abilities depend on stable spinal support. ____20____ After all, for graceful aging, consistent simple daily practices such as abdominal breathing or consciously using the core while walking are far more effective than high-intensity gym workouts.
A．Its real value is supporting key body functions.
B．Nevertheless, such exercises are not entirely useless.
C．Importantly, effective core training doesn’t need much effort.
D．Building core strength improves lifelong health and self-reliance.
E．Using core strength naturally in daily activities brings good results.
F．Stretching regularly eases muscle tightness and boosts daily flexibility.
G．These muscles support the middle of the body and help reduce back pain.

In the following famous “The Mile of the Century” race, Bannister ____33____ Australian runner John Landy with a time of 3:58:8 to Landy’s 3:59:6, both under four minutes. In 1955, Bannister’s autobiography, The First Four Minutes, came out.
Bannister’s ____34____ to academic medicine proved equally distinguished, yet the spirit and legacy of the four-minute mile remain profoundly ____35____, resonating not only with the people of our era, but with generations before and after.

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。
It was Christmas Eve morning, and I awoke with a mission: to find my lost cat, Baby-Girl. As I got ready, I could hear icy rain beating the windows. I said a quick prayer for Baby-Girl. She was out there somewhere in the storm; I could just feel it. Sure, it had been six months since she’d gone missing, but I still had faith. She’d been my constant comfort for years, and I can’t bring myself to give up on her.
That summer, my sweet kitty had disappeared from my parents’ house in Indiana. Baby-Girl had been staying with them while I was between apartments. At the time, I lived and worked in Washington, D.C. I was staying with friends until I signed my rental agreement on a new place. Baby-Girl had got out of my parents’ house three days before I was set to fly back home to pick her up.
My dad and I spent that entire visit searching for her. Dad was the family’s resident “realist,” which meant he spent a whole lot of time trying to prepare me for the worst. “She’s either been hit by a car or been taken in by someone who found her,” he said. I heaved a long sigh. Dad always supported me, but he was so skeptical. He could do with a little more faith!
Besides, though I couldn’t explain it, I knew I’d see Baby-Girl again. She’d been a homeless cat when I found her. A tough little tabby (斑猫) survived all on her own. If any cat could do the impossible, it was my Baby-Girl. Even after I returned to Washington, D.C. without her and the weeks stretched into months, deep down I had this feeling that we’d be reunited.
Now, home again for the holidays, I was determined to pick up my search. I grabbed Baby-Girl’s cat carrier and loaded it into the car, and then asked my dad to drive me to the shelter, hoping she’d been found.
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。
“Sharon, you have to be realistic,” Dad said as we headed to the shelter.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
At the shelter, the woman at the front desk greeted my dad and me warmly.

Dear fellow students,
Nowadays, we are faced with serious sanitation problems. Piles of rubbish are left in classrooms and corridors are often dirty, which affects our school environment.
To change the situation, we should raise our awareness of labor. First, clean our own classrooms regularly. Besides, do not litter anywhere. What’s more, we can take turns to keep public areas tidy.
Let’s take action to build a clean and comfortable campus together.

“Sharon, you have to be realistic,” Dad said as we headed to the shelter. He reminded me that six months was a long time and the heavy rain made the search hopeless. He tried to persuade me to give up, believing there was little chance to find the cat alive. However, I refused to lose hope. I told Dad Baby-Girl was strong and I could feel she was still waiting somewhere. Seeing my firm determination, Dad stopped discouraging me and kept silent for the rest of the trip.
At the shelter, the woman at the front desk greeted my dad and me warmly. I described Baby-Girl’s appearance eagerly. After checking the records, she led us to a small cage. There lay a thin tabby cat. The moment she saw me, the cat mewed excitedly. It was Baby-Girl! Tears rolled down my cheeks. Dad watched our reunion in surprise. He finally understood that hope and faith could create miracles.
