This irregular heart rhythm increases the risk of stroke and affects over a million-people in Britain, with an estimated 500,000 more remaining undiagnosed due to a lack of noticeable symptoms. While some individuals experience signs like chest pain, dizziness, or fatigue, many only discover the condition after suffering a stroke. Detecting AF typically involves an electrocardiogram (ECG), performed in a hospital where trained staff attach up to 24 electrodes to different parts of the body. However, since AF often occurs intermittently (间歇地), a short hospital check-up may not detect it. To counter this, doctors sometimes provide patients with a Holter monitor, a device worn under clothing that records heart activity. However, it’s bulky, inconvenient, and requires multiple wires to be attached to the chest, making it uncomfortable for daily wear. The Cardioskin T-shirt offers a more practical alternative. Made from cotton and washable up to 35 times, it has 15 small electrodes woven into the chest area to monitor heart signals continuously. The T-shirt can be worn 24 hours a day, increasing the likelihood of detecting abnormal rhythms. Powered by a removable battery, the electrodes feed data to a microchip, which wirelessly transmits the information to an app. The app converts the data into an easy-to-read chart, highlighting any irregular heart activity. The results are then shared with the patient’s doctor, allowing for remote monitoring without requiring hospital visits. This innovative design could make diagnosing AF easier and more accessible, potentially reducing the risk of stroke for many. Professor Martin Cowie, a cardiologist at Imperial College London, views Cardioskin as an significant development in heart health monitoring, offering a comfortable and efficient tool for early detection of cardiac problems. 4. What is the main idea of Paragraph 2? A. The difficulty in detecting atrial fibrillation. B. The benefit of wearing a Holter monitor. C. The process of recording heart activity. D. The future of developing a new ECG. 5. Why did the author mention a Holter monitor in the text? A. To introduce a way to check the patient’s heart. B. To explain why doctors like using the device. C. To show the advantage of a Cardiosk in T-shirt over it. D. To encourage people to care about their health. 6. What can we learn about the Cardiosk in T-shirt? A. It has electrodes placed all over the T-shirt. B. It can be worn a month without being washed. C. It has a battery that can be charged easily and quickly. D. It can make the process of diagnosis timely and convenient. 7. What could be the best title for the passage? A. New ECC: an important development for doctors B. Hi-tech T-shirt: a good helper for detecting strokes C. Holter monitor: a device tracking patients’ heart problems D. Cardiosk in T-shirt: a shirt keeping patients from diseases 【答案】4. A 5. C 6. D 7. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。短文介绍了一件能持续监控心脏活动并检测异常的T恤衫，并着重介绍了它给人们带来益处。 【4题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“However, since AF often occurs intermittently (间歇地), a short hospital check-up may not detect it. (然而，由于房颤经常间歇性发生，短期的医院检查可能无法发现它。)”和“However, it’s bulky, inconvenient, and requires multiple wires to be attached to the chest, making it uncomfortable for daily wear. (然而，它体积庞大，不方便，并且需要在胸部连接多根电线，这使得它在日常佩戴时不舒服。)”可知，第二段主要讲的是房颤检测的困难。故选A。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。由第二段“However, it’s bulky, inconvenient, and requires multiple wires to be attached to the chest, making it uncomfortable for daily wear. (然而，它体积庞大，不方便，并且需要在胸部连接多根电线，这使得它在日常佩戴时不舒服。)”以及第三段“The Cardioskin T-shirt offers a more practical alternative. Made from cotton and washable up to 35 times, it has 15 small electrodes woven into the chest area to monitor heart signals continuously. (Cardioskin的T恤提供了一个更实用的选择。它由棉花制成，可洗涤多达35次，在胸部区域编织了15个小电极，以连续监测心脏信号。)”可知，作者在文中提到了一个Holter监护仪的装置目的就是为了展示这件Cardioskin T恤衫的优点。故选C。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。由倒数第二段“Powered by a removable battery, the electrodes feed data to a microchip, which wirelessly transmits the information to an app. The app converts the data into an easy-to-read chart, highlighting any irregular heart activity. The results are then shared with the patient’s doctor, allowing for remote monitoring without requiring hospital visits. This innovative design could make diagnosing AF easier and more accessible, potentially reducing the risk of stroke for many. (电极由一块可移动电池供电，将数据输入微芯片，微芯片将信息无线传输到应用程序。应用程序将数据转换成易于阅读的图表，突出显示任何不规则的心脏活动。然后将结果与患者的医生共享，这样就可以在不需要去医院的情况下进行远程监控。这种创新的设计可以使诊断心房颤动更容易、更容易，潜在地降低许多人中风的风险。)”可推知，Cardioskin T恤衫使诊断过程及时、方便。故选D。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段“A new T-shirt that continuously monitors heart activity and detects abnormalities may help prevent strokes by identifying dangerous heart conditions like atrial fibrillation (AF). (一种新的T恤可以持续监测心脏活动并检测异常，通过识别心房颤动等危险的心脏疾病，可能有助于预防中风。)”可知，主要讲述的是一种名为Cardioskin的新型T恤，它能够持续监测心脏活动并检测异常，特别是心房颤动等危险的心脏疾病，从而可能帮助预防中风。故选B。 C It has been five years since I left my staff job and became self-employed. I remember my terror as I walked out of the office for the last time and the excitement when I sold my first piece days later. Working for yourself, setting your own hours and being responsible for your success or failure are exciting. I left my job just as summer was starting, and my first few months were as blissful as the fair days. When winter came, an office where someone else paid for the central heating and my salary was guaranteed seemed attractive. January is tough for freelancers (自由职业者), and it was no different for me — after masses of work, I earned none. I shared my fears with some businesswomen I knew — what if the reality would be more like what I was experiencing? Whether through choice or circumstance, the number of freelancers is rising and, if you’re just starting out, it is scary. I’ve been lucky that these women making money their own way shared key lessons about what it takes. You can’t feel half-hearted about what you do because, at some point, you’re going to have painful days. When that happens, you have to remember why you wanted this life in the first place. Don’t quit your job for something that you think might be more interesting, quit it for something you can’t stop thinking about. Setting up a business is tough. Rather than waiting until all is perfect, go for the moment when it feels as if momentum (势头) is with you. Look after yourself. There is no sick pay when you are self-employed. You can’t do a bad day’s work and blame it on your boss. You are the backbone of your business and you need to prioritize your health and well-being. Rest regularly and find like-minded people to support you and lift you up when things get hard. Finally, enjoy it. Freedom is yours and, if you can make it work, there is nothing better. 8. What does the underlined word “blissful” in paragraph 1 mean? A. Pleasant. B. challenging. C. Awful. D. Boring. 9. What bothered the author when winter came? A. The cold weather influenced her working performance. B. She eventually realized freelancing wasn’t to her taste. C. Masses of freelancing work brought her much anxiety. D. She couldn’t even earn enough to meet daily basics. 10. According to the author, why should we quit for a new job? A. To escape from the current pain. B. To satisfy our temporary interests. C. To explore where our strength lies. D. To pursue what we really desire. 11. What’s author’s probable attitude towards becoming freelancers? A. Critical. B. Favorable. C. Cautious. D. Unclear. 【答案】8. A 9. D 10. D 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文，主要讲述了作者离开了稳定的工作，成为了一个自由职业者，并通过其在离职后经历的困难为那些打算成为自由职业者的人们提供了自己的建议，并明确支持自由就业。 【8题详解】 词义猜测题。根据第一段的“It has been five years since I left my staff job and became self-employed. I remember my terror as I walked out of the office for the last time and the excitement when I sold my first piece days later. Working for yourself, setting your own hours and being responsible for your success or failure are exciting. I left my job just as summer was starting, and my first few months were as blissful as the fair days.(自从我离开我的员工工作成为个体户已经五年了。我还记得最后一次走出办公室时的恐惧，以及几天后卖出第一件作品时的兴奋。为自己工作，设定自己的时间，对自己的成功或失败负责，这些都是令人兴奋的。夏天刚开始，我就离开了我的工作，我的头几个月就像晴天一样blissful。)”可知，作者做自由职业者的初始几个月是很顺利的，因此心情很愉快。blissful意为“快乐的，愉悦的”，与Pleasant意思一致。故选A。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段的“When winter came, an office where someone else paid for the central heating and my salary was guaranteed seemed attractive. January is tough for freelancers, and it was no different for me — after masses of work, I earned none.(当冬天来临的时候，一间由别人支付中央供暖费用并保证我的工资的办公室似乎很有吸引力。一月对于自由职业者来说是艰难的，对我来说也一样——在做了大量的工作之后，我一无所获。)”可知，作者在1月的冬天遭遇了挫折，做了大量的工作之后一无所获，甚至挣不到足够的钱来维持供暖这样的日常基本生活开支。故选D。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“Don’t quit your job for something that you think might be more interesting, quit it for something you can’t stop thinking about.(不要因为你认为可能更有趣的事情而辞职，要因为你无法停止思考的事情而辞职。)”可知，作者认为辞职去找一份新工作是因为心中放不下自己想做的事情，即要去追求我们真正渴望的东西。故选D。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段的“Finally, enjoy it. Freedom is yours and, if you can make it work, there is nothing better.(最后，享受它。自由是你的，如果你能让它发挥作用，那就再好不过了。)”可知，作者对从事自由职业持支持态度。故选B。 D Many philosophers and psychologists have argued that empathy (共情) is a natural characteristic, hard-wired into our genes and brains. The reasoning goes that each of us has a “level” of empathy and—like our adult height—we’re stuck there for life. This is all well and good if you’re already empathetic, but also means that if you struggle with empathy, you’ll never improve no matter how hard you try. Thankfully, this view is incomplete. Through the right practices, such as diverse friendships and even fiction reading, we can grow our empathy on purpose. Empathy is something like a muscle: left unused, it weakens; put to work, it grows. No emotion is always useful, and that goes for empathy as well. This is especially true for nurses, doctors and other caregivers. These individuals are driven to their work by a deep desire to help others. Patients of empathetic doctors are more satisfied with their care. However, when healthcare professionals care too much, they are at high risk of burnout, tiredness and depression from over-empathizing with others’ suffering. Some psychologists, including myself, are now exploring how people in these professions might empathize in more sustainable ways. For example, empathetic concern-—feeling for someone—is distant from emotional empathy—feeling as someone else does. If they can develop concern instead, for example, they can care without falling apart. In another set of studies conducted with Carol Dweek, a Stanford professor of psychology, we found that merely believing empathy is a skill that can be developed inspired people to try harder at it. For instance, people who were encouraged to have a “growth mindset” around empathy, as compared to a fixed mindset, spent more time listening to the suffering of someone of another race and more energy towards trying to understand the opinions of someone from a different part of the political divide. 12. What view do many philosophers and psychologists have about empathy? A. It grows when practiced often. B. It is a result of individual experiences. C. It is inborn and difficult to develop. D. It varies depending on one’s upbringing. 13. What does the author suggest doctors do? A. Develop their emotional empathy. B. Try to erase their patients’ concern. C. Care for their patients as much as possible. D. Work on improving their empathetic concern. 14. Based on Carol Dweek’s studies in which situation are people willingly empathetic? A. If they believe that empathy is flexible. B. If they are given enough attention. C. If they listen to the identical political views. D. If they suffer racial discrimination. 15. In which unit of a textbook does the text most likely appear? A. Understanding yourself more. B. Feeling for others. C. Exploring genes and emotions. D. Repairing broken relationships. 【答案】12. C 13. D 14. A 15. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文，主要讲的是与他人共情是一种十分重要的促进人际关系的能力。然而，长久以来，共情能力被认为是天生的，由基因决定，一成不变。作为一名心理学家，作者认为，共情能力可以在后天通过多种方式进行培养。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Many philosophers and psychologists have argued that empathy (共情) is a natural characteristic, hard-wired into our genes and brains.(许多哲学家和心理学家认为，同理心是一种自然特征，根植于我们的基因和大脑中。)”和“This is all well and good if you’re already empathetic, but also means that if you struggle with empathy, you’ll never improve no matter how hard you try.(如果你已经有同理心，这一切都很好，但也意味着如果你在同理心方面挣扎，无论你多么努力，你都永远不会提高。)”可知，许多哲学家和心理学家对移情的看法是这是天生的，很难培养。故选C。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“However, when healthcare professionals care too much, they are at high risk of burnout, tiredness and depression from over-empathizing with others’ suffering.(然而，当医疗保健专业人员过于关心时，他们很有可能因过度同情他人的痛苦而感到倦怠、疲倦和抑郁。)”可知，护士、医生和其他医护人员极有可能因为过度共情他人的痛苦而面临倦怠、疲劳和抑郁的风险。再根据第四段中的“For example, empathetic concern-feeling for someone—is distant from emotional empathy—feeling as someone else does. If they can develop concern instead, for example, they can care without falling apart.(例如，移情关怀——对某人的感觉——与情感移情——像别人一样的感觉是有距离的。例如，如果他们能培养出关心，他们就能在不崩溃的情况下关心他人。)”可知，作者建议医护人员努力提高他们的同理心。故选D。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“In another set of studies conducted with Carol Dweek, a Stanford professor of psychology, we found that merely believing empathy is a skill that can be developed inspired people to try harder at it.(在与斯坦福大学心理学教授Carol Dweek进行的另一组研究中，我们发现，仅仅相信同理心是一种可以培养的技能，就能激励人们更加努力地去做这件事。)”可知，如果他们相信同理心是灵活的，人们就会心甘情愿地移情。故选A。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是第二段“Through the right practices, such as diverse friendships and even fiction reading, we can grow our empathy on purpose. Empathy is something like a muscle: left unused, it weakens; put to work, it grows.(通过正确的做法，比如不同的友谊，甚至小说阅读，我们可以有意地培养我们的同理心。同理心就像一块肌肉：如果不使用，它会变弱；投入工作，它就会成长。)”可知，文章就同理心展开讨论，同理心是一种对他人的情感产生共鸣或表现出共情和同理心的能力，因此本文最可能出现在教科书的对他人的感觉这个单元，故选B。 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) Getting negative feedback never feels good. In fact, it pretty much always sucks. Even though it feels bad, constructive feedback is meant to help us grow and improve. Here are some strategies that can help you use negative feedback constructively, leading to positive change. ____16____ Your instinct may be to get upset or justify yourself instantly, but it’s important to remain as professional as possible in the moment. Even when your criticizer is factually wrong, the response “You’re wrong!” won’t ever be helpful. The key is to listen without planning your reply. Simply nod until the other person has completely finished. Recognize the good intentions. Remember, the people who will give you tough feedback are the people who really care about your success. People who tell you only what they know you want to hear don’t really care about you.____17____ Don’t let it harm your confidence. Whatever you do, don’t allow negative feedback to destroy your self-esteem.____18____ Whatever went wrong won’t define you forever if you apply the feedback constructively and use it to your advantage. Practice self-affirmation.____19____ It can be helpful to remind yourself of other aspects of your identity that are not in question to boost your confidence. For example, you could say: “Yes, my team thinks I’m a micromanager, but I can work on that, I am also a nice partner, committed volunteer and talented singer.’’ Set actionable goals. It can be helpful to break down the feedback into specific, actionable goals. ____20____ Set time to outline an action plan and timeline for each of these goals. With this, you can keep track of your progress and hold yourself accountable to your goals. Though negative feedback may be disheartening, take the necessary steps to become an even better version of yourself. A. Avoid reacting defensively. B. Don’t take the feedback personally. C. These can feel easier to work with and give you direction. D. You don’t have to apply every piece of feedback you receive. E. Negative feedback can sometimes make you feel like a failure. F. It’s almost impossible to consistently do everything right all the time. G. So instead of reacting negatively, thank those caring about you to give you honest feedback. 【答案】16. A 17. G 18. F 19. E 20. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一些帮助你建设性地利用负面反馈，导致积极的变化的策略。 【16题详解】 根据本段内容“Your instinct may be to get upset or justify yourself instantly, but it’s important to remain as professional as possible in the moment. Even when your criticizer is factually wrong, the response “You’re wrong!” won’t ever be helpful. The key is to listen without planning your reply. Simply nod until the other person has completely finished.(你的本能可能会让你心烦意乱，或者立刻为自己辩护，但在那一刻尽可能保持专业是很重要的。即使批评你的人实际上是错的，“你错了!”这句话不会有任何帮助。关键是倾听而不是计划你的回答。只要点头，直到对方完全说完)”可知，本段的主旨是避免在收到批评时，立刻为自己辩护，即防御性反应。故A选项“避免防御性的反应”符合语境，故选A。 【17题详解】 根据上文“Recognize the good intentions. Remember, the people who will give you tough feedback are the people who really care about your success. People who tell you only what they know you want to hear don’t really care about you.(认识到良好的意图。记住，给你严厉反馈的人是真正关心你成功的人。那些只告诉你他们知道你想听的话的人并不是真的关心你)”可知，上文提到了给你严厉反馈的人是真正关心你的人，故本句与上文构成因果关系，指出应该感谢这些人。故G选项“所以，与其消极地回应，不如感谢那些关心你的人给你诚实的反馈”符合语境，故选G。 【18题详解】 根据上文“Don’t let it harm your confidence. Whatever you do, don’t allow negative feedback to destroy your self-esteem.(不要让它伤害你的信心。无论你做什么，都不要让负面的反馈毁掉你的自尊)”以及后文“Whatever went wrong won’t define you forever if you apply the feedback constructively and use it to your advantage.(如果你建设性地运用反馈并将其转化为你的优势，那么无论什么错误都不会永远定义你)”可知，上文提到了无论做什么，都不要让负面反馈毁掉你的自尊，故本句说明负面反馈时有发生，故F选项“始终如一地做好每件事几乎是不可能的”符合语境，故选F。 【19题详解】 根据上文“Practice self-affirmation.(实践自我肯定)”以及后文“It can be helpful to remind yourself of other aspects of your identity that are not in question to boost your confidence. For example, you could say: “Yes, my team thinks I’m a micromanager, but I can work on that, I am also a nice partner, committed volunteer and talented singer.’’(提醒自己其他没有问题的方面会对增强自信很有帮助。例如，你可以说：“是的，我的团队认为我是一个微观管理者，但我可以改进，我也是一个很好的合作伙伴，忠诚的志愿者和有才华的歌手。”)”可知，后文主要说明了从其他方面肯定自己的能力，可推测本句是在说明负面反馈带来的负面影响。故E选项“负面反馈有时会让你觉得自己很失败”符合语境，故选E。 【20题详解】 根据上文“Set actionable goals. It can be helpful to break down the feedback into specific, actionable goals.(设定可行的目标。将反馈分解成具体的、可操作的目标是很有帮助的)”可知，本句承接上文，说明设定目标的作用，C选项中These指代上文goals。故C选项“他们会让你感觉更容易相处，给你指明方向”符合语境，故选C。 第三部分 语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共15小题：每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Every Christmas, my mom would fill our stockings with small toys and candies.

A 39. actually 40. on 41. results 42. but 43. conservation 44. where 45. to set 【解析】 【导语】本文是说明文。讲述了由于气候变化，我们海洋的颜色正在发生变化。 【36题详解】 考查动词时态。句意：在过去的20年里，低纬度的海洋变得更加绿色。分析句子结构可知，本句缺少谓语，所以become作本句谓语，根据时间状语Over the past 20 years，应该用现在完成时，主语是low-latitude oceans为复数。故填have become。 【37题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：众所周知，燃烧化石燃料导致的全球气温上升正在给我们的海洋带来巨大变化，从海平面上升、风暴加剧到海水酸化。分析句子结构可知，本句已有谓语动词are making，所以drive用非谓语形式，根据空后的by应该用过去分词表被动。故填driven。 【38题详解】 考查冠词。句意：美国宇航局的一颗名为Aqua的卫星刚刚在5月庆祝了它的21岁生日，这使它成为仍在运行的最长的太空探测器之一。分析句子结构可知，satellite为可数名词，句中用的单数，前应用不定冠词修饰，NASA为辅音音素开头，用a修饰，位于句首，应大写。故填A。 【39题详解】 考查副词。句意：它收集了很多关于海洋颜色的数据，这实际上是一个重要的气候变量，可以反映海洋生态系统的变化。分析句子结构可知，空处修饰句子，应该用副词修饰。故填actually。 【40题详解】 考查介词。句意：在分析数据后，研究人员发现，平均而言，我们的海洋正在变得更加绿色，大约56%的海洋表面发生了重大变化。分析句子结构可知，此处考查固定搭配：on average意为“平均起来”。故填on。 【41题详解】 考查名词。句意：研究结果表明，气候变化的影响已经在表层海洋微生物生态系统中感受到，但这些影响尚未被探测到。分析句子结构可知，空前是冠词，所以空处应填名词作主语，根据suggest没有三单形式，所以应该用复数形式。故填results。 【42题详解】 考查连词。句意：研究结果表明，气候变化的影响已经在表层海洋微生物生态系统中感受到，但这些影响尚未被探测到。根据前文“the effects of climate change are already being felt in surface marine microbial (微生物) ecosystems”以及后文“those effects have not yet been detected.”两句间是转折关系，用but连接。故填but。 【43题详解】 考查名词。句意：因此，研究结果可能对海洋保护和管理有用。分析句子结构可知，空处和后文的management并列，一起作宾语，conserve的名词形式是conservation。故填conservation。 【44题详解】 考查定语从句。句意：例如，了解海洋表面微生物生态系统正在发生变化的地方，可能有助于确定开放海洋的区域，以建立海洋保护区。分析句子结构可知，空处引导定语从句，先行词是places，在从句中作地点状语，用where引导。故填where。 【45题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：例如，了解海洋表面微生物生态系统正在发生变化的地方，可能有助于确定开放海洋的区域，以建立海洋保护区。分析句子结构可知。本句已有谓语动词might be，所以set用非谓语形式，此处表目的，应该用不定式形式。故填to set。 第三节(共10小题;每小题0.5分，满分5分) 46.

You’re house hunting in areas you aren’t familiar with, dragging all of your belongings around, trying to figure out which grocery store keeps your favourite noodles in stock, and wondering when you’ll ever find a new dentist. This was exactly what I went through when I settled in Chicago. Every day, I was fully occupied, exhausted. I found my new city so big and unfriendly. After graduating from college in May, I moved from the town of Oxford, Mississippi, to Chicago to start my full-time job. Typically, when I went through lots of change in my life, I had consistent faces around me: my family or my friends. This time, however, it was just me. And for someone who’s an introvert (内向的人), this was anything but easy. Besides, the job itself was also something beyond my expectation. What I learnt in college was totally different from what I needed to do in the company. I worked longer hours to sort things out and couldn’t sleep well at night. It was a lot of change at once. It was too much. I was helpless. What’s worse, my poor health added to the helplessness. Due to days of pressure, I had a physical problem. It seemed that I had to go to hospital for a thorough examination. It seemed a small challenge compared to the one I was about to face, but things started to go wrong right from the beginning. Not having a car or knowing the city, I was depending on a couple of buses to get around. Although I’d left myself plenty of time, soon it was obvious that I was going to be late, as I had mistakenly got on a bus that was taking me in the opposite direction. 注意：1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: I had no choice but to get off the bus. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Suddenly, a car stopped in front of me and it was the same woman. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: Para.1: I had no choice but to get off the bus. Standing on the pavement, I felt totally at a loss. Strangers passed by, but I couldn’t gather the courage to ask for directions. Just at the moment, a middle-aged woman, instead of moving on, stopped to ask if I needed help. After I explained my situation to her, she pointed to a bus stop across the street. “No.5 bus will take you to the hospital.” she said kindly. I showed my thanks and hurried to the stop, where I waited for the bus restlessly. Para.2: Suddenly, a car stopped in front of me and it was the same woman. She waved her hand and offered to give me a ride. The smile on her face was so bright that I was nearly moved to tears. With gratitude filling my heart, I got in the car. “I see you’re not familiar with the city,” she chuckled. I told her about my helplessness in the new city along the way. “Don’t worry. Everything will work out here.” she comforted me when dropping me off at the hospital. Yes, everything would go fine, starting from making such an amazing friend. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者初到芝加哥定居时，觉得这个城市似乎对自己不太友好，刚到这里，作者就因为身体不适需要去医院进行检查，然而因人生地不熟坐错车。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“我别无选择，只能下车。”可知，第一段可描写正当作者因坐错车而手足无措时，一位女士问作者是否需要帮助，作者向她解释情况，她给作者指明了去医院的正确交通路线，然后作者去等公交车。 ②由第二段首句内容“突然，一辆车停在我面前，原来是那个女人。”可知，第二段可描写陌生女士居然开车送作者去医院，作者感动之余告诉她自己在新城市里感到无助，她安慰着作者，作者觉得一切都会变好。 2.续写线索：作者因坐错车，下公交车——作者不知所措——陌生女士寻问作者是否需要帮助——陌生女士给作者指路——作者去等公交车——陌生女士开车停在作者面前——陌生女士要送作者去医院——作者上车，向她诉说来到新城市的无助感——陌生女士安慰作者——作者觉得一切都会变好 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①需要：need/require ②解释：explain/explicate ③（朝某方向）迅速移动：hurry/rush 情绪类 ①感动的：moved/touched ②感谢：thanks/gratitude/appreciation 【点睛】[高分句型1].

B A new T-shirt that continuously monitors heart activity and detects abnormalities may help prevent strokes by identifying dangerous heart conditions like atrial fibrillation (AF). This irregular heart rhythm increases the risk of stroke and affects over a million-people in Britain, with an estimated 500,000 more remaining undiagnosed due to a lack of noticeable symptoms. While some individuals experience signs like chest pain, dizziness, or fatigue, many only discover the condition after suffering a stroke. Detecting AF typically involves an electrocardiogram (ECG), performed in a hospital where trained staff attach up to 24 electrodes to different parts of the body. However, since AF often occurs intermittently (间歇地), a short hospital check-up may not detect it. To counter this, doctors sometimes provide patients with a Holter monitor, a device worn under clothing that records heart activity. However, it’s bulky, inconvenient, and requires multiple wires to be attached to the chest, making it uncomfortable for daily wear. The Cardioskin T-shirt offers a more practical alternative. Made from cotton and washable up to 35 times it has 15 small electrodes woven into the chest area to monitor heart signals continuously. The T-shirt can be worn 24 hours a day, increasing the likelihood of detecting abnormal rhythms. Powered by a removable battery, the electrodes feed data to a microchip, which wirelessly transmits the information to an app. The app converts the data into an easy-to-read chart, highlighting any irregular heart activity. The results are then shared with the patient’s doctor, allowing for remote monitoring without requiring hospital visits.

Cardiosk in T-shirt: a shirt keeping patients from diseases C It has been five years since I left my staff job and became self-employed. I remember my terror as I walked out of the office for the last time and the excitement when I sold my first piece days later. Working for yourself, setting your own hours and being responsible for your success or failure are exciting. I left my job just as summer was starting, and my first few months were as blissful as the fair days. When winter came, an office where someone else paid for the central heating and my salary was guaranteed seemed attractive. January is tough for freelancers (自由职业者), and it was no different for me — after masses of work, I earned none. I shared my fears with some businesswomen I knew — what if the reality would be more like what I was experiencing? Whether through choice or circumstance, the number of freelancers is rising and, if you’re just starting out, it is scary. I’ve been lucky that these women making money their own way shared key lessons about what it takes. You can’t feel half-hearted about what you do because, at some point, you’re going to have painful days. When that happens, you have to remember why you wanted this life in the first place. Don’t quit your job for something that you think might be more interesting, quit it for something you can’t stop thinking about. Setting up a business is tough. Rather than waiting until all is perfect, go for the moment when it feels as if momentum (势头) is with you. Look after yourself. There is no sick pay when you are self-employed. You can’t do a bad day’s work and blame it on your boss. You are the backbone of your business and you need to prioritize your health and well-being. Rest regularly and find like-minded people to support you and lift you up when things get hard. Finally, enjoy it. Freedom is yours and, if you can make it work, there is nothing better. 8. What does the underlined word “blissful” in paragraph 1 mean? A. Pleasant. B. challenging. C. Awful. D. Boring. 9. What bothered the author when winter came? A. The cold weather influenced her working performance. B. She eventually realized freelancing wasn’t to her taste. C. Masses of freelancing work brought her much anxiety. D. She couldn’t even earn enough to meet daily basics. 10. According to the author, why should we quit for a new job? A. To escape from the current pain. B. To satisfy our temporary interests. C. To explore where our strength lies. D. To pursue what we really desire. 11. What’s author’s probable attitude towards becoming freelancers? A. Critical. B. Favorable. C. Cautious. D. Unclear. D Many philosophers and psychologists have argued that empathy (共情) is a natural characteristic, hard-wired into our genes and brains. The reasoning goes that each of us has a “level” of empathy and—like our adult height—we’re stuck there for life. This is all well and good if you’re already empathetic, but also means that if you struggle with empathy, you’ll never improve no matter how hard you try. Thankfully, this view is incomplete. Through the right practices, such as diverse friendships and even fiction reading, we can grow our empathy on purpose. Empathy is something like a muscle: left unused, it weakens; put to work, it grows. No emotion is always useful, and that goes for empathy as well. This is especially true for nurses, doctors and other caregivers. These individuals are driven to their work by a deep desire to help others. Patients of empathetic doctors are more satisfied with their care. However, when healthcare professionals care too much, they are at high risk of burnout, tiredness and depression from over-empathizing with others’ suffering. Some psychologists, including myself, are now exploring how people in these professions might empathize in more sustainable ways. For example, empathetic concern-—feeling for someone—is distant from emotional empathy—feeling as someone else does. If they can develop concern instead, for example, they can care without falling apart. In another set of studies conducted with Carol Dweek, a Stanford professor of psychology, we found that merely believing empathy is a skill that can be developed inspired people to try harder at it. For instance, people who were encouraged to have a “growth mindset” around empathy, as compared to a fixed mindset, spent more time listening to the suffering of someone of another race and more energy towards trying to understand the opinions of someone from a different part of the political divide. 12. What view do many philosophers and psychologists have about empathy? A. It grows when practiced often. B. It is a result of individual experiences. C. It is inborn and difficult to develop. D. It varies depending on one’s upbringing. 13. What does the author suggest doctors do? A. Develop their emotional empathy. B. Try to erase their patients’ concern. C. Care for their patients as much as possible. D. Work on improving their empathetic concern. 14. Based on Carol Dweek’s studies in which situation are people willingly empathetic? A. If they believe that empathy is flexible. B. If they are given enough attention. C. If they listen to the identical political views. D. If they suffer racial discrimination. 15. In which unit of a textbook does the text most likely appear? A. Understanding yourself more. B. Feeling for others. C. Exploring genes and emotions. D. Repairing broken relationships. 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) Getting negative feedback never feels good. In fact, it pretty much always sucks. Even though it feels bad, constructive feedback is meant to help us grow and improve. Here are some strategies that can help you use negative feedback constructively, leading to positive change. ____16____ Your instinct may be to get upset or justify yourself instantly, but it’s important to remain as professional as possible in the moment. Even when your criticizer is factually wrong, the response “You’re wrong!” won’t ever be helpful. The key is to listen without planning your reply. Simply nod until the other person has completely finished. Recognize the good intentions. Remember, the people who will give you tough feedback are the people who really care about your success. People who tell you only what they know you want to hear don’t really care about you.____17____ Don’t let it harm your confidence. Whatever you do, don’t allow negative feedback to destroy your self-esteem.____18____ Whatever went wrong won’t define you forever if you apply the feedback constructively and use it to your advantage. Practice self-affirmation.____19____ It can be helpful to remind yourself of other aspects of your identity that are not in question to boost your confidence. For example, you could say: “Yes, my team thinks I’m a micromanager, but I can work on that, I am also a nice partner, committed volunteer and talented singer.’’ Set actionable goals. It can be helpful to break down the feedback into specific, actionable goals. ____20____ Set time to outline an action plan and timeline for each of these goals. With this, you can keep track of your progress and hold yourself accountable to your goals. Though negative feedback may be disheartening, take the necessary steps to become an even better version of yourself. A. Avoid reacting defensively. B. Don’t take the feedback personally. C. These can feel easier to work with and give you direction. D. You don’t have to apply every piece of feedback you receive. E. Negative feedback can sometimes make you feel like a failure. F. It’s almost impossible to consistently do everything right all the time. G. So instead of reacting negatively, thank those caring about you to give you honest feedback. 第三部分 语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共15小题：每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Every Christmas, my mom would fill our stockings with small toys and candies.

You’re house hunting in areas you aren’t familiar with, dragging all of your belongings around, trying to figure out which grocery store keeps your favourite noodles in stock, and wondering when you’ll ever find a new dentist. This was exactly what I went through when I settled in Chicago. Every day, I was fully occupied, exhausted. I found my new city so big and unfriendly. After graduating from college in May, I moved from the town of Oxford, Mississippi, to Chicago to start my full-time job. Typically, when I went through lots of change in my life, I had consistent faces around me: my family or my friends. This time, however, it was just me. And for someone who’s an introvert (内向的人), this was anything but easy. Besides, the job itself was also something beyond my expectation. What I learnt in college was totally different from what I needed to do in the company. I worked longer hours to sort things out and couldn’t sleep well at night. It was a lot of change at once. It was too much. I was helpless. What’s worse, my poor health added to the helplessness. Due to days of pressure, I had a physical problem. It seemed that I had to go to hospital for a thorough examination. It seemed a small challenge compared to the one I was about to face, but things started to go wrong right from the beginning. Not having a car or knowing the city, I was depending on a couple of buses to get around. Although I’d left myself plenty of time, soon it was obvious that I was going to be late, as I had mistakenly got on a bus that was taking me in the opposite direction. 注意：1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: I had no choice but to get off the bus. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Suddenly, a car stopped in front of me and it was the same woman. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 1.
