Each Christmas and birthday, Charlie Jeffers would receive brand-new Lego (乐高积木) sets. One day in 2020 he was home building with them when it struck him that many kids couldn’t play with Lego because of its cost. “Lego brings me a lot of joy, and I want to spread that joy to other kids,” he said. Given that some unwanted Lego bricks may end up in landfills, he decided to do something to address the problem.
Charlie put up posters around his neighborhood, asking people to donate their unwanted Lego bricks. Because most of the donations were loose bricks and not in complete sets, he used them to develop new sets with fun themes. Charlie delivered the sets to a local Boys and Girls Club. The kids were thrilled to receive them.
A local newspaper ran a story about what he was doing. “Word spread quickly, and soon I had more donated bricks,” he recalls. Charlie recruited (招募) some volunteers, and through social media, the project expanded across the Bay Area. Then people in other states began reaching out to Charlie, asking him how they could get involved. Pass the Bricks, a nonprofit organization, was born.
Mailing bricks to other states can be pricey, so Charlie developed a network of helpers. They do what Charlie does but in their own communities. Recipients (接受者) have included children receiving cancer treatment in San Francisco, a boy who was shot while playing outside his house in Alabama and schoolkids in Micronesia. Pass the Bricks has donated more than 13,000 sets to kids in need and collected nearly 7,000 pounds of used Lego bricks.
With every Lego brick finding a new home, a future where every child has the chance to play, learn, and grow through the magic of Lego is in sight.
24. What do we know about Charlie from Paragraph 1?
A. He had much interest in receiving holiday gifts.
B. He showed concern for kids without Lego bricks.
C. He only wanted to give his deserted toys to others.
D. He was eager to collect outdated Lego bricks in landfills.
25. What motivated Charlie Jeffers to found Pass the Bricks?
A. He was inspired by others’ enthusiastic engagement.
B. He was encouraged by a story in the local newspaper.
C. He wanted to exchange second-hand Lego for money.
D. He expected more kids to share the happiness of Lego.

D. Confident and ambitious.

Some of the world’s 7,000 languages disappear annually and many are endangered for not being spoken widely in formal settings like schools. A quiet fightback is under way in communities that feel their traditions are drowned out by the dominance of the most globally spoken languages.
Tochi Precious, a Nigerian, says, “It pains me to see a language dying off, because it’s not just about the language, but about the history and culture associated with it.” It was the community aspect that brought her to join efforts to save Igbo, an endangered African language. Ensuring there’s a substantial record of words and meanings, and how it is written and used is key, according to campaigners like Precious, who aid others in their languages’ protection through the organization Wikitongues.
Amrit Sufi, an Indian speaking Angika, records videos and uploads them to preserve its oral culture via Wikitongues, too. “It’s urgent to document and make it accessible, not just stored in a library,” she says. “Oral culture is disappearing as new generations are more subject to consuming industry-produced music rather than sitting in groups and singing. They’re ashamed to speak it due to a perceived dishonor attached to it, seeing Angika beneath dominant languages.”
Wikitongues focuses on helping document languages using collective resources such as dictionaries and alternative-language Wikipedia entries. Wikipedia is favoured by language activists as a way to upload media and build effective and affordable dictionaries.
There are moves to use artificial intelligence to document languages by processing texts and feeding them into chatbots. Many activists create books, videos and recordings. Community radio stations also have a long record of providing services in local languages. Despite such preservation, activists then have to persuade people to use a language — a major challenge.
“While Igbo is one of Nigeria’s largest languages, parents believe only English is useful for children’s future, insisting that if they don’t speak English, they appear ignorant and don’t belong,” Precious says. “But efforts to save it have worked — the language is flowering again.”
28. How do Precious and Sufi help prevent language loss?
A. Through national programs. B. Through word of mouth.
C. Through mass music formats. D. Through Internet technology.
29. What may be the reason for the downfall of Angika according to Sufi?
A. Decline in population. B. Lack of job-market demands.
C. Prejudice against Angika. D. Absence of formal education.
30. What is the toughest thing facing activists about an endangered language?
A. Promoting its use. B. Building community cooperation.
C. Obtaining financial support. D. Getting advanced recording devices.
31. What is Precious’ attitude towards the Igbo rescue move?
A. Skeptical. B. Positive. C. Pessimistic. D. Uncaring.
D
A watched pot never boils, but time has wings when you’re having fun. The familiar saying has a basis in solid science — our sense of time does expand and contract depending on the way we experience the world. Even delicate visual features can affect how we perceive time. New research shows more memorable images seem to last longer.
Martin Wiener, head of the research, says the finding helps reveal how the brain’s time-bending strategy allows it to process and remember more information. While what is actually happening in the brain when time seems to expand remains unclear, scientists suspect it may have something to do with helping the brain process more information in limited time.
This is especially relevant for the brain’s visual system which, subjected to information overload, has to rank in order of importance, allowing for limited resources. Recent research has shown some images are more naturally memorable than others.
To understand how this memorability of an image, along with a few simpler visual features such as scene size and disorder, might relate to our subjective sense of time, Wiener and his colleagues conducted related experiments, in which subjects were shown images with varying durations and were asked to categorize whether the length of time on the screen was either “short” or “long”. The next day they were given a surprise memory test to see which images they recalled seeing.
The researchers found larger scene sizes seemed to extend time while more disorderly scenes seemed to contract it. Besides, the subjects perceived more memorable images remained on the screen longer, even if they were all presented for the same amount of time. To find the underlying factor, the team fed the same memorability-ranked images to a neural (神经的) network modeled after the brain’s visual system and found more memorable images were processed faster.
The explanation for why our brain’s faster processing would slow time is that it’s increasing the amount of information it can take in at once. Limited resources to process information may act as a sort of bottleneck, which the brain can widen when it needs to absorb more information, thus dilating time.
32. What does the saying “A watched pot never boils” describe?
A. The unnoticed passage of time B. The feeling that time hangs heavy.
C. The hardship of preparing cuisine. D. The perception that time is confusing.
33. How does the brain’s visual system handle information?
A. By setting priorities. B. By comparing similar scenes.
C. By sorting randomly. D. By screening out complex images.
34. Which of the images seems to last longest if shown on the screen for an equal duration based on the study?
35. What does the underlined word “dilating” in the last paragraph mean?
A. Using up. B. Cutting down.
C. Stretching out. D. Clearing away.

Is Sugarcoat Sweet?
In our pursuit to maintain harmony, avoid conflict, and prevent hurt feelings, we’re sometimes tempted to be polite to sugarcoat the truth. 36 However, too much display of this behavior can muddy the waters of communication. Here are the dangers of sugarcoating:
37 Your job isn’t to soften the blow when delivering bad news to the extent that you leave others feeling confused about your intentions. When messages are wrapped in layers of politeness, the true intention or meaning can be lost — the receiver may not fully grasp the seriousness or urgency of the message.
Leave issues unsolved. Sugarcoated messages can prevent important issues from being tackled. When feedback is not clear, it becomes difficult for the receivers to take appropriate action. They may not know exactly what is expected of them or how to go about making the necessary changes. 38 Meanwhile, the present status will continue, leaving important issues unresolved.
Get upset and annoyed. Over time, the lack of clarity has a significant effect on relationships and can lead to frustration and complaint, especially when one party has put in an effort to express themselves but feels unacknowledged. The dissatisfaction may lead to their suspicion of the authenticity of the relationship and doubt about whether their efforts are being wasted. 39
While it’s natural to want to spare others’ feelings, overly polite communication can sometimes do more harm than good. 40 Only in this way can we reduce misunderstandings and have relationships built on trust and clarity. Remember, the goal is not to abandon politeness completely but to balance it with honesty, ensuring that our communications are both kind and effective.
A. Reduce trust.
B. Cause misinterpretations.
C. This avoids displeasing them.
D. The uncertainty can lead to inaction.
E. This can create a cycle of negative emotions.
F. Being polite is generally seen as a positive performance.
G. So it is wise to be open for more direct and honest interactions.

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。
When entering seventh grade, I was excited about many new things, but one thing really bothered me — I started getting acne (长青春痘). Initially, it was just a little, but then, it seemed like overnight, my face was covered with it. I tried to hide it with my hair, but it just wouldn’t work.
I was consumed with worry that my peers would make fun of me. I couldn’t concentrate in class, as my mind was constantly preoccupied with my appearance, causing my grades to slip sharply. I started to feel inferior (自卑的) to my classmates and even avoid interaction with them. I tried to get rid of the acne. I washed my face multiple times a day, using all sorts of acne creams I found. I also avoided snacks that might cause it. But all ended up in vain.
One day, our school announced a sports day and the teacher asked us to form our own teams. As a sports enthusiast, I had been eagerly expecting it, but I was scared that no one would join me because of how I looked. Standing in front of the mirror, I kept imagining how my classmates would react when I asked them to team up with me. The fear of rejection held me back from approaching them.
But then, Kim came to me, “Do you want to join us for the relay race? I’ve seen you run before and you’ve got the speed. If you join us, we’ll have a good chance to win.” In disbelief, I managed to utter “Yes,” still feeling self-conscious but also incredibly grateful.
I, together with another three classmates, signed up for the relay race. We trained for it and discussed strategies together, none paying attention to my acne. Because of my advantage in speed, I was even assigned to run the last leg, which was the most crucial part.
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。
Then came the long-awaited sports day.
The experience was a turning point to my junior life.
