点拨精讲25’:
Prices have been rising rapidly in cities across the world, driving the cost of living higher than ever before. But not everywhere has been impacted equally. For travelers, these places can offer the same big-city convenient facilities at a much lower cost of living.
Lisbon, Portugal
As the least-expensive city in Western Europe, according to the EIU rankings, Lisbon has been a hot spot for travelers in recent years. Mercedes Zach recommends exploring the bohemian(波西米亚式的)Bairro Alto neighbourhood to uncover street art, city views and sunset gatherings with locals. The Roman Theatre Museum gives a glimpse into the city’s Roman past, with preserved theatre ruins.
Toronto, Canada
Canadian cities to the north continue to remain lower in the cost-of-living rankings. Of all the Canadian cities ranked, Toronto ranks the most affordable. Toronto resident Stephanie Ciccarelli recommends city sightseeing via boat cruise on Lake Ontario, or visiting the Hockey Hall of Fame.
Tokyo, Japan
Moving three down the index(指标)this year and ranking 60 overall, Tokyo continues to be Japan’s most expensive city yet is now more affordable than, fellow Asian cities like Singapore and Hong Kong. Tokyo resident Masa Yamamoto encourages tourists to wander around the urban garden and pubic art displays at the newly developed Azabudai Hills neighbourhood for free. For a new perspective on the city, he recommends the contemporary art Mori Art Museum and its connected Tokyo City View, which offers a view of the city from 250 m above sea level for just 2,000 yen.

阅读B:本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲迷了Adams Cassinga 从难民到野生动物保护者,创立〝保护刚果”组织,通过卧底调查打士非法狩猎和野生动物交易,致力于保护剛果的自然环境和野生动物。
Adams Cassinga has had many identities: refugee(难民); journalist, mining consultant. And now, defender of wildlife.
As a child, he was fascinated by animals gorillas living in the forests outside his hometown of Bukavu in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC)—but his path to conservation was winding. His father, who feared Adams would be taken as a child soldier, sent him to South Africa. In Johannesburg, Adams learnt to survive on the streets while teaching himself English in public libraries. After he was granted official refugee status, he studied journalism and landed his first job working for a local newspaper. While working as an investigative reporter in 2006, Adams was shot three times! Adams changed career paths again, this time to work in the profitable mining industry in South Africa. In this role, he returned years later to the DRC to visit gold mines.
One day, while flying to a gold mine in northeastern Congo, Adams saw the wounds of mining operations on the lush forest landscape. He began to think about the beauty of his country’s wild places and the struggle to protect them. After volunteering as an honorary ranger(护林人), Adams took his wildlife mission one big step further, founding Conserv Congo in 2017. Conserv Congo fights-illegal hunting-and -trafficking(非法交易) through undercover investigations in pursuit of criminals in the illegal wildlife trade. With a team of volunteers including police officers, politicians and students, Adams steals into trafficking networks and conducts organized traps with the authorities.
Adams places great value in winning over the hearts and minds of the police officers he works with. “They need to understand the reason behind what we do. We have to transform them into nature lovers. They can only protect what they know and love,” he says: It also partners with multiple national parks, helping to prevent illegal hunting, training volunteers to patrol the parks with rangers, and buying uniforms and other supplies for rangers. To date, the non-profit has worked on more than 6,000 criminal cases, rescued hundreds of trafficked animals from chimps to parrots, and seized tons of ivory and pangolin scales.
24. What did Adams go through when he arrived in South Africa?
A. Civil war. B. Culture shock.
C. Language barrier. D. Regional discrimination.
25. What motivated Adams to start out on the path of conservation?
A. The beautiful scenery of the forest.
B. The deep affection for wild animals.
C. The gold mine in northeastern Congo.
D. The forest destruction caused by mining.
26. What is Adams trying to achieve in partnership with the police officers?
A. A uniform rule for, national parks.
B. A comprehensive supply for rangers.
C. A scientific system of training volunteers,
D. A transformation in attitude towards nature.
27. Which words can best describe Adams?
A. Rigid and reserved. B. Active and committed.
C. Adaptable and humorous D. Humble and diligent.

阅读C:本文是一篇说明文。本文主要介绍了脑力疲惫是什么,脑力疲惫产生时大脑皮层里会发生哪些变化,以及应该采取哪些措施来应对脑力疲惫。
It goes without saying that hard physical labor wears you out, but what about hard mental labor? “Influential theories suggested that fatigue(疲惫) is a sort of illusion cooked up by the brain to make us stop whatever we are doing and turn to a more gratifying activity,” says Mathias Pessiglione of Pitie-Salpetriere University in Paris, France. “But our findings show that cognitive work results in a true functional transformation-accumulation of toxic substances-so fatigue would indeed be a signal that makes us stop working but for a different purpose: to preserve the integrity of brain functioning.”
Pessiglione and colleagues wanted to understand what mental fatigue really is. They used magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) to monitor brain chemistry over the course of a workday. They studied two groups of people; those who needed to think hard and those who had relatively simple cognitive tasks.
They saw signs of fatigue, only in the group doing hard mental work. Those in that group also exhibited in their choices a change toward options proposing rewards at short delay with minimal effort. Critically, they also had higher levels of glutamate(谷氨酸) in the brain’s prefrontal cortex(前额皮质). Together with earlier evidence, the scientists say it supports the hypothesis that glutamate accumulation makes further activation of the prefrontal cortex more costly, such that cognitive control is more difficult after a mentally tough workday.
So, is there some way to overcome this limitation of our brain’s ability to think hard? “Not really, I’m afraid,” Pessiglione said. “I would employ good old recipes: rest and sleep! There is good evidence that glutamate is removed from the brain during sleep.”
There may be other practical implications of the findings. For example, the researchers say, monitoring of prefrontal cortex could help to detect severe mental fatigue. Such an ability may help adjust work agendas to avoid burnout. Pessiglione also advises people to avoid making important decisions when they’re tired.
28. What does the underlined word “gratifying” in Paragraph 1 mean?
A. Relaxing. B. Complex. C. Temporary. D. Rewarding.
29. What does the group performing hard mental work exhibit in the study?
A. Fewer signs of mental fatigue.
B. Greater motivation and effort.
C. Higher efficiency in complex tasks.
D. Stronger preference for immediate rewards.
30. What do we know about glutamate accumulation?
A. It causes a sense of peaceful mind.
B. It enhances brain function in a limited way.
C. It signals the brain is emptying its mental energy.
D. It decreases the cost of prefrontal cortex activation.
31. What is Pessiglione’s advice for those overwhelmed by mentally demanding tasks?
A. Remove them from the work agenda.
B. Reduce the complexity of all cognitive tasks.
C. Schedule strategic breaks to allow for-recovery.
D. Apply technology to monitoring the brain activity.

阅读D:[D篇大意】本文是一篇说明文。确认偏见是指人们倾向于寻找支持自身信念的信息,进而影响判断与决策。为了克服确认偏见,应使信息来源多样化并主动质疑假设,提升理解和判断能力。
Confirmation bias refers to people’s tendency to seek out information that supports their existing beliefs. While it’s usually subconscious, its impacts are significant. It can cloud people's judgement and decision-making processes.
One explanation for confirmation bias is that it is an efficient way to process information. Humans are constantly fed with information and cannot possibly take the time to carefully process each piece. It is adaptive for humans to rely on subconscious, automatic judgements that contribute to the efficiency. Another reason why people show confirmation bias is to protect their self-worth. People like to feel good about themselves, and discovering a belief they highly value is incorrect makes them feel bad about themselves. Therefore, confirmation bias will encourage them to disregard the information contrary to their belief.
Researches show that confirmation bias is strong and widespread. In studies examining my-side bias, people were able to generate and remember more reasons supporting their side of a controversial issue than the opposing side. Only when a researcher directly asked people to generate arguments against their own beliefs were they able to do so. It is not that people are incapable of generating arguments that are contrary to their beliefs, but, rather, people are not motivated to do so.
Confirmation bias also surfaces in interpersonal communication. When interacting with people who perceivers think have certain personalities, the perceivers will ask questions that are biased toward supporting the perceivers’ beliefs. If a new roommate is expected to be friendly and outgoing, Maria may ask her if she likes to go to parties rather than asking if she often studies in the library.
Confirmation bias may lead to incomplete and misinterpreted understanding of an issue or topic, as crucial information may.be overlooked or dismissed. Thus, to avoid it, people are supposed to diversify the sources of information accessed as seeking multiple perspectives brings a broader understanding of the subject matter and allows for well-rounded decision-making. Another way is to actively challenge the bias by questioning assumptions and relying on evidence rather than personal opinions, which helps us consciously recognize informational biases and minimize their impact.
32. Why do people show confirmation bias?
A. To help maintain their dignity. B. To prevent shallow judgements.
C. To handle complex information. D. To develop their logical reasoning.
33. What did the studies in Paragraph 3 find?
A. People couldn’t produce arguments against their belief,
B. Information supporting people’s belief often won preference,
C. It took considerable motivation to face controversial issues.
D. People focused on information concerning the opposing side.
34. How does the writer illustrate confirmation bias in communication?
A. By making comparison. B. By giving an example.
C. By introducing a study. D. By defining a concept.
35. What is the passage mainly about?
A. The role of my-side bias in enhancing people’s own beliefs.
B. The effects of information overload on decision-making process.
C. The impact of confirmation bias on interpersonal communication.
D. Understanding of confirmation bias and strategies to overcome it.

Hobbies are more than just a fun way to kill the time. A widespread and harmful misunderstanding is that engaging in hobbies mirrors a lack of self-discipline. 36 In fact, hobbies can provide essential balance in our lives and enhance overall well-being. The benefits you obtain will depend on your hobby-taking up jogging, for instance, will benefit your cardiovascular(心血管的)health more than, say, crossword puzzles, which may improve your cognitive health. The point is that nearly all hobbies can provide measurable positive health benefits.
If we regularly spend time on hobbies, we usually enjoy a higher level of fitness. 37 A 2023 comprehensive analysis of multiple studies found strong evidence that engaging in leisure activities can improve health by protecting against heart disease and age-related physical decline. The report, published in the journal Lancet Psychiatry, found that for people who were suffering from a chronic(慢性的)illness, doing a hobby helped them manage their symptoms and even slowed the progression of their illness. But another of the researchers’ findings is perhaps the most striking: the strong relationship between doing leisure activities and increased longevity(长寿). 38 It found that older adults have a 19% lower risk of disease-related death when they engage in regular leisure activities.
......
D. Nothing could be further from the truth.
E. The more you engage in hobbies, the longer you will live.
F. A different study conducted last year confirmed the impact.
G. And being able to pursue your passion really contributes to that.

七选五:本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了爱好的重要性及其对健康、幸福和长寿的积极影响、纠正了关于爱好的常见误解,并呼吁人们重视爱好带来的益处。
39 They are vital to sustaining our mental health. People who made a conscious effort each day to spend time doing hobbies (no matter what they were) showed an average boost of 8% in well-being and a 10% drop in stress and anxiety, according to a 2023 study published in the Journal of Personality. “On a fundamental level, humans need meaning, something that gives them a sense of purpose. 40 ” says Dr. Hafeez, who has led several massive studies on hobbies. “Engaging in what you enjoy greatly enhances your well-being.”
With all these visible benefits of hobbies, why not just make time for activities that bring you joy and fulfillment every day?
A. The science backs this up.
B. Hobbies make us happier.
C. You gain a lot from hobbies.
D. Nothing could be further from the truth.
E. The more you engage in hobbies, the longer you will live.
F. A different study conducted last year confirmed the impact.

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。
My brother Jack was so smart that he earned a full scholarship to Harvard. I often wished he wasn’t so perfect because it made me feel like I had to work twice as hard just to prove myself to others. On one hand, his success was a challenge that I enjoyed, but on the other hand, it was an immense pressure that I struggled to cope with.
To balance his record in high school, I felt like I was constantly running on a treadmill(跑步机), dedicating every moment to a non-stop race. There was no room for relaxation as I pursued that perfect record. My life seemed to be compressed, into a series of endless tasks and deadlines.
“I needed an A,” I repeated to myself before the biology test, so that I would maintain my perfect record and secure a place on the honor roll. I studied till the last minute of lunch and rushed to class. I felt a sense of confidence as I glanced over the first page of the test, quickly filling in the answers with a smile. However, as I turned to the last page, my mind went blank. Time ticked by, and soon, the classroom began to empty as students finished their tests and left, except me. “Lara, class ended. I need you to hand in your test,” Mrs. Phloem said, stretching out her hand. Reluctantly, I handed her the test paper.
The next day, I received my test back. I stared dumbfounded at the red mark: 76. Not even a B minus, my mind screamed. Just average. It’s over. No perfect record. I felt an unprecedented(前所未有的)sense of frustration and disappointment. After school, I dragged my heavy feet back home. When I pushed open the door, Jack was sitting on the couch, reading. Seeing his leisurely state, I cried, hard to contain the jealousy and sadness in my heart. Jack immediately noticed the depression on my face. He asked with concern, “What’s wrong, Lara?” Blinded by frustration mixed with a touch of jealousy, I shouted at him “How I wish you were not so perfect!”
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。
Paragraph 1. With a hint of hurt and surprise in his eyes, Jack gently approached me. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2. His words were like a warm breeze, blowing my depression away and changing my mindset. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
With a hint of hurt and surprise in his eyes, Jack gently approached me. He placed a hand on my shoulder, asked me again what had happened. I took out my test paper and told him that I would never match up to him in a choked voice. Jack's smile grew warmer, and he gave my shoulder a reassuring squeeze."You don't have to measure up to anyone and your worth isn't defined by grades or achievements. You're more than just a number
on a test. Remember that be yourself; everyone else is already taken."
His wards were like a warm breeze, blowing my depression away and changing my mindset. I was still engaged in endless tasks and deadlines, but I no longer felt constrained by my brother's shadow. Realizing that comparison is the chief of joy, I strove for excellence instead of perfection, which is often unattainable and can lead to burnout. I felt a weight lifted off my shoulders as I realized hat my value wasn't tied to a single test score. I felt more confident and less overwhelmed as I know that believing in doing my best will always be the ultimate best score.
THANKS
Thank you for listening!
