There are many kinds of jobs in the world, and if people can’t find their ideal job, they can always create one. Molly Lewis did just that by becoming a professional whistler.
Shane O’ Neill writes in The Washington Post, “If you’re a famous comedian, you may get the frightening ‘Tell me a joke!’ from a stranger. If you think that’s bad, try being a professional whistler.” “It happens all the time,” said Molly Lewis with a smile. “Sometimes I’ll oblige.”
Lewis released her album, On the Lips, in February, to promote whistling. “People often don’t know much about whistle music apart from some pop songs,” Lewis said. “But I think it’s a beautiful instrument.”
People gradually notice whistle music. She whistled a singer’s What Was I Made For? appeared in the Barbie movie.
Lewis adds depth to whistling which is usually seen as cheerful or absent-minded. She is inspired by artists like the couple, Marty and Elayne. “They played for 37 years, five nights a week, and it was very special,” Lewis said.
Lewis learned to whistle at four but took it seriously after seeing Pucker Up, a 2005 documentary about competitive whistling. She attended the International Whistlers Convention in 2012 and has performed in music clubs since then.
Starting in 2017, Lewis performed shows called Cafe Molly at Zebulon, attracting many notable figures. On tour, she aims to create an atmosphere of elegance, an atmosphere she hopes to bring home with On the Lips.

Humor has long been recognized for its positive effects, even in the darkest times. Laughter serves as a bridge, helping individuals get through pain. This is shown in Amy Herzog’s new play, Mary Jane. The play balances humor and heartbreak, providing a fresh idea on the trials of care-giving and the strength of the human spirit.
Mary Jane tells the story of a single mother who raises her disabled son, Alex. The play explores friendship, unconditional mother love, and hope and despair. Despite all the challenges she faces, Mary Jane’s life is filled with humor, offering the audience brief respites (喘息) from her emotional trouble.
The play focuses on the characters’ emotional and psychological experiences rather than the physical presence of Alex who is mostly hidden from the audience. This is achieved by showing the influence of Alex’s condition through the eyes of those who care for him. The audience feels the weight of his absence and his various needs, which take up most of Mary Jane’s life. Mary Jane tries hard to meet the demands of her job while managing her son’s constant medical needs. Her interactions with the supporting characters show the importance of community support and humor that help her fight with her daily struggles. One of the most moving parts of the play is that of Mary Jane’s interactions with other mothers of disabled children. They exchange advice, encourage and entertain each other with humor.
Norman Cousins, a professor, recorded his recovery from a severe illness through daily laughter. Cousins discovered that ten minutes of genuine laughter had an anesthetic (麻醉的) effect and gave him at least two hours of pain-free sleep. His findings show humor’s physical and psychological benefits.
Research also supports the importance of laughter and humor, showing that it can reduce stress, improve mood and resilience. Humor positively and directly affects people’s health. This indicated that humor could buffer against stress and improve overall mental health.
8. What is the purpose of the text?
A. To advertise a new play. B. To provide humor in our daily life.
C. To emphasize the importance of humor. D. To introduce the way to be humorous.
9. Which words can describe Mary Jane?
A. Curious and sensitive. B. Loyal and hardworking.
C Careful and friendly. D. Strong and humorous.
10. What can we learn from the play?
A. The audience seldom see Alex in the play. B. Mary Jane has no friends.
C. Mary Jane never goes out to work. D. Mary Jane has a considerate husband.
11. How did Cousins recover from his illness?
A. By having plenty of exercise. B. By laughing a lot every day.
C. By having a balanced diet. D. By taking lots of medicine.
D
Screens are replacing paper in almost every area of communication, but is this good for our mental health? Research shows that reading has many mental health benefits, yet most people choose screen time over books for entertainment. Even in schools, digital learning is taking over, making backpacks lighter but challenging students to stay focused.
Reading short posts on social media reduces our attention span, making long books harder to enjoy. This type of reading also uses simple language, offering less exposure to rich vocabulary and ideas. Research indicates that comprehension is six to eight times better with physical books than e-readers. While people may read faster on devices, distractions (使人分心事物) like social media, ads, and notifications (通知) often prevent them from remembering what they read. Physical books provide a more immersive experience, helping readers understand and remember the content better.
Holding a book, turning its pages, and highlighting favorite parts engage the body. Researchers say turning pages helps create a “mental map”, linking what we read to specific pages, which aids memory. The physical actions of reading a book-how you hold it, how your eyes move across the pages-create a unique experience. Unlike e-books, physical books offer a tangible (可感知) experience, which is important for building strong mental connections.
Physical books also offer a social experience that e-readers do not. Visiting a bookstore, asking a librarian for recommendations, or sharing a book with a friend are enjoyable aspects of reading. These social interactions are missed when downloading e-books.
Most people strongly prefer printed books. In one study, 92 percent of students said they preferred print over e-books. There’s something special about holding a book, admiring its cover, and seeing your progress with a bookmark. Reading physical books not only improves comprehension but also provides a richer, more engaging experience.
12. Why does digital learning challenge students?
A. There is very little to read. B. There are many distractions.
C. Digital devices are costly. D. E-books are hard to find.
13. Which helps readers remember content better?
A. Reading physical books. B. Using e-readers to read.
C. Surfing news websites. D. Reading short media posts.
14. What is the author’s attitude towards physical books?
A. Tolerant. B. Objective. C. Critical. D. Supportive.
15. What is the main focus of the text?
A. Benefits of digital learning. B. Dangers of digital devices.
C. Strengths of physical books. D. Changes in reading habits.

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 calm weekend, I went to the countryside to visit my grandmother. Her house, located in the heart of a village, was a harbour of quietness away from the noise of city life. As I approached her home, the familiar sight of her welcoming smile warmed my heart.
My grandmother, a woman of great wisdom and strength, had always been the backbone of our family. Her hands, though weathered with time, were skilled in the art of growing food from the soil. Her garden was her pride and her love for the land.
Upon my arrival, I noticed the wide area of her garden, awaiting the plants that would bring forth a harvest. I eagerly offered to help her with the planting, but she looked at me with concern. Her eyes reflected a mix of affection and apprehension. "Are you sure, my dear?" she asked with doubt. "It's hard work, and I don't want you to tire yourself."
Determined to assist her, I insisted on learning the skills of gardening. She saw the determination in my eyes and, with a gentle nod, agreed to teach me. Under her careful teaching, I began my learning, eager to absorb every piece of knowledge she had to offer.
The process of planting required patience. My grandmother showed me how to prepare the soil, the proper depth to dig, and the correct spacing between each seedling(幼苗). She explained the importance of each step. She taught me every single detail.
At first, my movements were clumsy(笨拙的), and I feared I might be more of trouble than a help. But my grandmother's encouragement was firm. She guided my hands, correcting my technique with a gentle touch and kind words. Slowly, I began to find my rhythm (节奏), and my action became more fluent.
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, my grandmother agreed to let me do the planting alone.

When I left that evening, I looked back at the garden.

People gradually notice whistle music. She whistled a singer’s What Was I Made For? appeared in the Barbie movie.
Lewis adds depth to whistling, which is usually seen as cheerful or absent-minded. She is inspired by artists like the couple, Marty and Elayne. “They played for 37 years, five nights a week, and it was very special,” Lewis said.
Lewis learned to whistle at four but took it seriously after seeing Pucker Up, a 2005 documentary about competitive whistling. She attended the International Whistlers Convention in 2012 and has performed in music clubs since then.
Starting in 2017, Lewis performed shows called Cafe Molly at Zebulon, attracting many notable figures. On tour, she aims to create an atmosphere of elegance, an atmosphere she hopes to bring home with On the Lips.
4. Which can explain the underlined word “oblige” in paragraph 2?
A. Ignore. B. Decline. C. Promise. D. Agree.
5. What did Lewis intend to do with her album?
A. Stress the role of whistling. B. Get whistling recognized.
C. Give credit for a movie. D. Attract youngsters’ attention.
6. What did Lewis think of Marty and Elayne?
A. They are excited. B. They are frightened.
C. They are committed. D. They are stressed.
7. How did Pucker Up affect Lewis?
A. It deepened her devotion to whistling. B. It earned her international reputation.
C. It gave her easy access to music clubs. D. It recognized her talent as a whistler.

【4题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段中的“If you’re a famous comedian, you may get the frightening ‘Tell me a joke!’ from a stranger. If you think that’s bad, try being a professional whistler.(如果你是一名喜剧演员,在某个时候,你会从一个陌生人那里得到可怕的‘给我讲个笑话!’。如果你认为这很糟糕,试着做一名专业的吹口哨者。)”可知,有时候喜剧演员被陌生人要求讲个笑话,可能会感觉很糟糕,而如果做名专业的吹口哨者则不会有这种糟糕的体验,由此可推测出,“‘It happens all the time,’ said Molly Lewis with a smile. ‘Sometimes I’ll oblige.’”表示的是作为吹口哨者她总会被要求吹个口哨,而她有时候会答应请求,所以猜测oblige表“同意,接受”的意思。故选D项。

Humor has long been recognized for its positive effects, even in the darkest times. Laughter serves as a bridge, helping individuals get through pain. This is shown in Amy Herzog’s new play, Mary Jane. The play balances humor and heartbreak, providing a fresh idea on the trials of care-giving and the strength of the human spirit.
Mary Jane tells the story of a single mother who raises her disabled son, Alex. The play explores friendship, unconditional mother love, and hope and despair. Despite all the challenges she faces, Mary Jane’s life is filled with humor, offering the audience brief respites (喘息) from her emotional trouble.
The play focuses on the characters’ emotional and psychological experiences rather than the physical presence of Alex who is mostly hidden from the audience. This is achieved by showing the influence of Alex’s condition through the eyes of those who care for him. The audience feels the weight of his absence and his various needs, which take up most of Mary Jane’s life. Mary Jane tries hard to meet the demands of her job while managing her son’s constant medical needs. Her interactions with the supporting characters show the importance of community support and humor that help her fight with her daily struggles. One of the most moving parts of the play is that of Mary Jane’s interactions with other mothers of disabled children. They exchange advice, encourage and entertain each other with humor.
Norman Cousins, a professor, recorded his recovery from a severe illness through daily laughter. Cousins discovered that ten minutes of genuine laughter had an anesthetic (麻醉的) effect and gave him at least two hours of pain-free sleep. His findings show humor’s physical and psychological benefits.
Research also supports the importance of laughter and humor, showing that it can reduce stress, improve mood and resilience. Humor positively and directly affects people’s health. This indicated that humor could buffer against stress and improve overall mental health.
8. What is the purpose of the text?
A. To advertise a new play. B. To provide humor in our daily life.
C. To emphasize the importance of humor. D. To introduce the way to be humorous.
9. Which words can describe Mary Jane?
A. Curious and sensitive. B. Loyal and hardworking.
C. Careful and friendly. D. Strong and humorous.
10. What can we learn from the play?
A. The audience seldom see Alex in the play. B. Mary Jane has no friends.
C. Mary Jane never goes out to work. D. Mary Jane has a considerate husband.
11. How did Cousins recover from his illness?
A. By having plenty of exercise. B. By laughing a lot every day.
C. By having a balanced diet. D. By taking lots of medicine.
【答案】8. C 9. D 10. A 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文体裁为说明文。文章主要通过《Mary Jane》展现了幽默在困难时期的重要作用,以及幽默对人身心健康的好处。
【8题详解】

This is shown in Amy Herzog’s new play, Mary Jane. The play balances humor and heartbreak, providing a fresh idea on the trials of care-giving and the strength of the human spirit. (即使在最黑暗的时期,幽默也一直被认为具有积极的作用。笑是一座桥梁,帮助人们度过痛苦。这体现在Amy Herzog的新剧《Mary Jane》中。该剧平衡了幽默和心碎,为关怀的考验和人类精神的力量提供了一个新的视角。)”和最后一段“Research also supports the importance of laughter and humor, showing that it can reduce stress, improve mood and resilience. Humor positively and directly affects people’s health. This indicated that humor could buffer against stress and improve overall mental health. (研究也支持笑声和幽默的重要性,表明它可以减轻压力,改善情绪和恢复力。幽默积极而直接地影响着人们的健康。这表明幽默可以缓冲压力,改善整体心理健康。)”可知,文章主要是强调幽默的重要性。故选C。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。由文章第二段中“Despite all the challenges she faces, Mary Jane’s life is filled with humor, offering the audience brief respites (喘息) from her emotional trouble. (尽管Mary Jane面临着种种挑战,但她的生活充满了幽默,让观众从她的情感烦恼中短暂地解脱出来。)”可知,Mary Jane虽然面临很多挑战,但她的生活充满了幽默,说明她坚强且幽默。故选D。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。由文章第三段中“The play focuses on the characters’ emotional and psychological experiences rather than the physical presence of Alex who is mostly hidden from the audience. (这部剧关注的是人物的情感和心理体验,而不是亚历克斯的身体存在,他基本上是隐藏在观众面前的。)”可知,剧中主要关注的是人物的情感和心理经历,而不是Alex的身体存在,所以观众在剧中很少看到Alex。故选A。
【11题详解】
细节理解题。由文章第四段中“Norman Cousins, a professor, recorded his recovery from a severe illness through daily laughter. Cousins discovered that ten minutes of genuine laughter had an anesthetic (麻醉的) effect and gave him at least two hours of pain-free sleep. (Norman Cousins教授通过每天的笑声记录了他从重病中恢复过来的过程。Cousins发现,十分钟真诚的笑声有麻醉作用,并给他至少两个小时的无痛睡眠。)”可知,Cousins是通过每天笑很多来恢复健康的。故选B。
D
Screens are replacing paper in almost every area of communication, but is this good for our mental health? Research shows that reading has many mental health benefits, yet most people choose screen time over books for entertainment. Even in schools, digital learning is taking over, making backpacks lighter but challenging students to stay focused.
Reading short posts on social media reduces our attention span, making long books harder to enjoy. This type of reading also uses simple language, offering less exposure to rich vocabulary and ideas. Research indicates that comprehension is six to eight times better with physical books than e-readers. While people may read faster on devices, distractions (使人分心的事物) like social media, ads, and notifications (通知) often prevent them from remembering what they read. Physical books provide a more immersive experience, helping readers understand and remember the content better.
Holding a book, turning its pages, and highlighting favorite parts engage the body. Researchers say turning pages helps create a “mental map”, linking what we read to specific pages, which aids memory. The physical actions of reading a book-how you hold it, how your eyes move across the pages-create a unique experience. Unlike e-books, physical books offer a tangible (可感知的) experience, which is important for building strong mental connections.
Physical books also offer a social experience that e-readers do not. Visiting a bookstore, asking a librarian for recommendations, or sharing a book with a friend are enjoyable aspects of reading. These social interactions are missed when downloading e-books.
Most people strongly prefer printed books. In one study, 92 percent of students said they preferred print over e-books. There’s something special about holding a book, admiring its cover, and seeing your progress with a bookmark. Reading physical books not only improves comprehension but also provides a richer, more engaging experience.
12. Why does digital learning challenge students?
A. There is very little to read. B. There are many distractions.
C. Digital devices are costly. D. E-books are hard to find.
13. Which helps readers remember content better?
A. Reading physical books. B. Using e-readers to read.
C. Surfing news websites. D. Reading short media posts.
14. What is the author’s attitude towards physical books?
A. Tolerant. B. Objective. C. Critical. D. Supportive.
15. What is the main focus of the text?
A. Benefits of digital learning. B. Dangers of digital devices.
C. Strengths of physical books. D. Changes in reading habits.
【答案】12. B 13. A 14. D 15. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍的是纸质书和电子书相比的各种优势。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据首段中的“Even in schools, digital learning is taking over, making backpacks lighter but challenging students to stay focused. (即使在学校里,数字学习也正在占据主导地位,书包变得更轻了,但学生们很难保持专注。)”可知,数字学习在学校正在占主导地位,学生很难保持专注,结合第二段中的“Reading short posts on social media reduces our attention span, making long books harder to enjoy. (在社交媒体上阅读简短的帖子会缩短我们的注意力,让我们更难享受长篇书籍。)”以及“While people may read faster on devices, distractions (使人分心的事物) like social media, ads, and notifications (通知) often prevent them from remembering what they read. (虽然人们在电子设备上阅读速度更快,但社交媒体、广告和通知等使人分心的事物往往会阻止他们记住所读的内容。)”可知,对学生来说,数字化学习给学生带来挑战是因为有太多使人分心的事物。故选B项。

(与电子书不同,实体书提供了一种有形的体验,这对建立牢固的心理联系很重要。)”以及第四段中的“Physical books also offer a social experience that e-readers do not. (实体书还提供了电子阅读器无法提供的社交体验。)”可知,作者在文中提到了很多阅读实体书有助于记忆、建立牢固的心理联系,以及提供社交体验等好处,由此可推断,作者对阅读实体书持支持赞成的态度。故选D项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。本文首先在前两段介绍了数字化学习存在的一些问题,进而在下文介绍了阅读实体书有助于记忆、建立牢固的心理联系,以及提供社交体验等好处,结合尾段中的“In one study, 92 percent of students said they preferred print over e-books. There’s something special about holding a book, admiring its cover, and seeing your progress with a bookmark. Reading physical books not only improves comprehension but also provides a richer, more engaging experience. (在一项研究中,92%的学生表示他们更喜欢纸质书而不是电子书。拿着一本书,欣赏它的封面,通过书签看到你的进步,这是一种特别的感觉。阅读实体书不仅能提高理解力,还能提供更丰富、更吸引人的体验。)”可知,阅读实体书不仅能提高理解力,还能提供更丰富、更吸引人的体验,由此可知,文章的主要焦点在于阅读实体书的好处。故选C项。

【36题详解】
考查非谓语。句意:例如,智能手机的使用改变了沟通方式,使我们能够通过各种社交媒体平台与他人联系。这里考查allow sb to do sth,表“允许某人做某事”,所以此空应填不定式作宾补。故填to connect。
【37题详解】
考查形容词。句意:然而,这一进展也引发了对环境保护的需求。此处需要形容词environmental 修饰名词 protection。故填environmental。
【38题详解】
考查名词。句意:技术对我们生活最重要的影响之一是它提供的便利。分析句子可知,此处需要名词作表语, convenience,表示“方便;便利”,为不可数名词,符合句意。故填convenience。
【39题详解】
考查副词。句意:然而,这些设备的生产往往会产生电子废物,如果管理不当,可能会对环境造成危害。 manage是动词,需要副词properly修饰,表示“适当地”。故填properly。
【40题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:为了解决这个问题,许多公司已经开始采用回收计划,这对处理电子垃圾至关重要。此处是非限制性定语从句,先行词是recycling programs,指代物,所以应用关系代词which 引导。故填which。
【41题详解】
考查名词复数。句意:回收项目不仅有助于保护自然资源,还提供了一种管理废物的好方法。 project是可数名词,由谓语动词help可知,此处表示泛指,且没有冠词限定,需要它的复数形式作主语 。故填projects。
【42题详解】
考查冠词。句意:保护自然环境已成为全球关注的问题,确保我们的技术进步不会以牺牲地球为代价是我们的集体责任。 at the cost of 是常用结构,意为“以⋯⋯为代价”。故填the。
【43题详解】
考查非谓语。句意:太阳能和风能等可再生能源的使用一直在增加,这是减少碳足迹的积极一步。towards是介词,后面跟动名词reducing作宾语。故填reducing。
【44题详解】
考查时态。句意:到目前为止,技术的进步使我们的生活更加方便,但也引发了人们对其影响的担忧。这里考查谓语动词,主语dvancements与make为主动关系,且so far充当句子的时间状语时,句子常用现在完成时,主语为复数形式,助动词用have。故填have made。
【45题详解】
考查介词。句意:通过采用更可持续的技术方法,我们可以确保子孙后代能够享受技术带来的好处,而不会破坏我们的星球。根据句意可知,此处要填介词 without,表示“不(做某事)”。故填without。

【答案】Dear George,
I’m excited to tell you about a new park that has just been built in our city. It’s located near the central square, and it’s known for its beautiful gardens and a large artificial lake where you can rent boats.
I think we can visit it this weekend. How about meeting at 9 am on Saturday at the park’s main entrance? We can take the bus number 23, which stops right in front of the park. We can spend the morning exploring the park and have a picnic lunch there. Please remember to wear comfortable shoes as there will be a lot of walking. Also, bring some water in case you get thirsty.
I’m looking forward to our day out! Let me know if you can make it.
Yours,

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 calm weekend, I went to the countryside to visit my grandmother. Her house, located in the heart of a village, was a harbour of quietness away from the noise of city life. As I approached her home, the familiar sight of her welcoming smile warmed my heart.
My grandmother, a woman of great wisdom and strength, had always been the backbone of our family. Her hands, though weathered with time, were skilled in the art of growing food from the soil. Her garden was her pride and her love for the land.
Upon my arrival, I noticed the wide area of her garden, awaiting the plants that would bring forth a harvest. I eagerly offered to help her with the planting, but she looked at me with concern. Her eyes reflected a mix of affection and apprehension. "Are you sure, my dear?" she asked with doubt. "It's hard work, and I don't want you to tire yourself."
Determined to assist her, I insisted on learning the skills of gardening. She saw the determination in my eyes and, with a gentle nod, agreed to teach me. Under her careful teaching, I began my learning, eager to absorb every piece of knowledge she had to offer.
The process of planting required patience. My grandmother showed me how to prepare the soil, the proper depth to dig, and the correct spacing between each seedling(幼苗). She explained the importance of each step. She taught me every single detail.
At first, my movements were clumsy(笨拙的), and I feared I might be more of trouble than a help. But my grandmother's encouragement was firm. She guided my hands, correcting my technique with a gentle touch and kind words. Slowly, I began to find my rhythm (节奏), and my action became more fluent.
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, my grandmother agreed to let me do the planting alone.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
When I left that evening, I looked back at the garden.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】参考范文:
Finally, my grandmother agreed to let me do the planting alone. I became more careful. I recalled the skills my grandmother had taught me, including the methods of digging, planting vegetable seedlings and watering them. Happily, I made it and my grandmother praised me. Each seedling I planted was a promise of growth, and a symbol of hope for the future. The sun bore down on us, and sweat dropped from my forehead, but the satisfaction of our labor was a reward beyond measure.
When I left that evening, I looked back at the garden. I was so proud to see the seedlings I had grown myself. I knew the day I spent with my grandmother would remain in my heart forever. I helped my grandmother, and in the process, I received a gift far greater than I could have imagined. I had learned the art of gardening. More importantly, I had deepened my bond with my grandmother, a connection that would flourish like the seeds we had planted together. I look forward to gardening with my grandmother again in the future.
