A
If you plan to have an expressive trip during 2025, the following are some destinations you can carefully consider.
Costa Rica, Guanacaste
Costa Rica is well-known for its positive, easy-going outlook that invites travelers to slip off their shoes and sink onto a beach blanket, or speed through the rainforest canopy on a rope line. The best time to visit for the best beach days is in January and February. Many restaurants here automatically add a 10% service charge.
The Athens Riviera, Athens
A long-kept secret is finally out: The 35-mile stretch of coast known as the Athens Riviera is becoming the city’s second center. With its pleasant beaches day-to-night bars and busy shops and restaurants, it’s hard to deny the area’s attraction. If you’re aiming for beach-perfect weather, the most suitable period to come here is between May and September.
Antwerp, Belgium
Since the Renaissance, Antwerp has been a global standard-bearer of design. Today, it’s more dynamic than ever. As other cities battle with overtourism, creative, uncrowded Antwerp increasingly seems like the place to be. Spring and fall bring the best weather, but the city is less crowded in the summer. Tipping is not required, as many restaurants add a 5% to 10% service charge to the bill.
Bahia, Brazil
Bahia is known for its tree-lined coast, with quiet beaches, rough Chapada Diamantina National Park (an ideal destination for hiking and waterfall spotting) and a historic center recognized by UNESCO. The best time to visit is during the summer months (as a reminder, in the southern hemisphere, that’s December to March), for great weather and Carnival.

As night falls, a hedgehog(刺猬) peeks its nose through a doorway far too small for any human to use. This five-inch-tall secret passage was made just for hedgehogs.
Over the past few decades, European hedgehog habitat has been carved up as people turned natural public spaces into private, walled-off gardens. Although hedgehogs can thrive in gardens, they need plenty of roaming room to find food, mates, and places to hibernate(冬眠). But walls, fences, and other barriers block the hedgehogs’ movements and reduce their population.
European hedgehogs are now in danger of extinction in the United Kingdom. So local conservationists came up with a solution. “We make small gaps in and under people’s fences that basically let the hedgehogs into their gardens,” says Grace Johnson, hedgehog officer for the Hedgehog Street campaign, a nationwide effort by the People’s Trust for Endangered Species and the British Hedgehog Preservation Society. “We call them ‘hedgehog highways’!”
Conservationists and the volunteers who created holes in their fences sometimes use camera traps to make sure the system is working. But they also rely on more low-tech methods: They place sticks at the openings of the holes. If a stick is knocked down, they’ll know a hedgehog passed through.
According to Grace Johnson, most people who install a door report more hedgehog activity in their backyard. That’s good news for gardeners: The little visitors keep down the numbers of crop-eating caterpillars and other insects.
Thanks to the highway system, more than 40,000 gardens in the United Kingdom are now connected, and the group is adding more each year. Keep cruising, hedgehogs!
4. What has caused the current situation of European hedgehog population?
A. The expansion of natural public spaces. B. The shortage of food and water sources.
C. The transformation of habitats by humans. D. The increasing number of natural enemies.
5. Why were the hedgehog highways built?
A. To beautify the gardens. B. To save hedgehogs from extinction.
C. To block the hedgehogs’ movements. D. To encourage more people to raise hedgehogs.
6. How does Grace Johnson find the hedgehog highways?
A. Costly. B. Traditional. C. Ordinary. D. Beneficial.
7. Where is the text most probably taken from?
A. A book review. B. A nature journal.
C. A novel on animals. D. A magazine on gardening.
【答案】4. C 5. B 6. D 7. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是说明文。文章讲述了欧洲刺猬因栖息地被人类改造为私人花园而面临灭绝的困境。欧洲刺猬因栖息地被私人花园的围墙和栅栏分割,活动受限,面临灭绝危险。为保护刺猬,英国环保人士在花园围栏上开设小通道,称为“刺猬公路”,帮助它们自由穿行。目前,英国已有4万多个花园通过这种方式相连,刺猬活动增加,花园生态也得到改善。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段的“Over the past few decades, European hedgehog habitat has been carved up as people turned natural public spaces into private, walled-off gardens.(在过去的几十年里,随着人们把自然的公共空间变成私人的、有围墙的花园,欧洲刺猬的栖息地已经被瓜分了。) "和“ But walls, fences, and other barriers block the hedgehogs’ movements and reduce their population.(但墙壁、栅栏和其他障碍物阻碍了刺猬的活动,减少了它们的数量。)”可知,欧洲刺猬的栖息地被分割,人们将自然公共空间转变为私人花园,导致刺猬的活动受到限制,数量减少。因此,欧洲刺猬数量减少的原因是栖息地被人类改造。故选C。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第二段内容“Over the past few decades, European hedgehog habitat has been carved up as people turned natural public spaces into private, walled-off gardens. Although hedgehogs can thrive in gardens, they need plenty of roaming room to find food, mates, and places to hibernate(冬眠). But walls, fences, and other barriers block the hedgehogs’ movements and reduce their population.(在过去的几十年里,随着人们把自然的公共空间变成私人的、有围墙的花园,欧洲刺猬的栖息地已经被瓜分了。虽然刺猬可以在花园中茁壮成长,但它们需要足够的漫游空间来寻找食物、配偶和冬眠的地方。但墙壁、栅栏和其他障碍物阻碍了刺猬的活动,减少了它们的数量。)”以及第三段的“European hedgehogs are now in danger of extinction in the United Kingdom. So local conservationists came up with a solution.(在英国,欧洲刺猬正面临灭绝的危险。所以当地的环保主义者想出了一个解决方案。)”可知,欧洲刺猬因栖息地被分割而濒临灭绝,因此,“刺猬高速公路”的建设是为了帮助刺猬在花园之间自由移动,从而保护它们的生存环境。故选B。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“According to Grace Johnson, most people who install a door report more hedgehog activity in their backyard. That’s good news for gardeners: The little visitors keep down the numbers of crop-eating caterpillars and other insects.(根据格蕾丝·约翰逊的说法,大多数安装了门的人都报告说,他们的后院有更多的刺猬活动。这对园丁来说是个好消息:这些小访客减少了吃庄稼的毛毛虫和其他昆虫的数量。)”可知,Grace Johnson认为“刺猬高速公路”对刺猬的活动有积极影响,并且大多数安装了“刺猬门”的人都报告了后院刺猬活动的增加。因此,Grace Johnson认为“刺猬高速公路”是有益的。故选D。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文结合第一段内容“As night falls, a hedgehog(刺猬) peeks its nose through a doorway far too small for any human to use. This five-inch-tall secret passage was made just for hedgehogs.(夜幕降临时,一只刺猬会从一个太小的门洞里探出头来。这条五英寸高的秘密通道是专为刺猬设计的。)”可知,文章讲述了欧洲刺猬因栖息地被人类改造为私人花园而面临灭绝的困境。文章内容涉及野生动物保护、生态问题以及人类活动对动物栖息地的影响,属于自然类文章。选项B“自然杂志”与文章内容相符。故选B。
C
The Internet is often criticized as a source of many modern-day challenges, from comparison traps and information overload to negativity biases. These issues are closely associated with our digital culture, raising concerns about its impact on mental health and social well-being. However, a new study by the Oxford Internet Institute suggests that the Internet’s role in our lives is not entirely negative. In fact, it may also be a significant driver of life satisfaction and social well-being for many people.
The study, which analyzed data from 168 countries between 2006 and 2021, involved over two million participants aged 15 to 99. Researchers examined eight indicators of well-being, including life satisfaction, daily positive and negative experiences, and community well-being. The findings revealed that in 85% of cases, Internet access and active Internet use were associated with higher levels of well-being. For the majority of individuals, the Internet serves as a powerful tool for connection, education, and personal growth. It enables people to access valuable resources, maintain relationships, and engage with communities, all of which contribute to a sense of fulfillment and happiness.
However, the study also identified a notable exception. In 5% of cases, Internet use was linked to negative outcomes, particularly among young women aged 15 to 24. They reported lower levels of well-being, a finding congruent with previous research that linked increased Internet usage to depression in young women and teenage girls. The reasons for this are complex but may include factors such as cyberbullying, social media-induced comparison, and the pressure to follow unrealistic online standards.
The timing of this research is significant, as governments worldwide are considering new laws and guidelines to address concerns about online safety. The researchers ask policymakers to carefully consider the data before carrying out new laws, emphasizing that while the Internet can have negative effects, it also has the potential to be a positive force. With proper guidance, education, and safety measures, the Internet can continue to enhance well-being for many.
In conclusion, while the Internet is not without its challenges, its impact on society is multifaceted (多方面的). For most, it is a source of connection, knowledge, and empowerment. By addressing its downsides and making use of its benefits, we can create a digital environment that supports and enriches lives globally.
8. What do the findings of the new study mainly show?
A. Young people are the main users of the Internet.
B. The Internet is criticized for information overload.
C. Adults benefit more from the Internet than other age groups.
D. Internet access is linked to higher levels of well-being in most cases.
9 What does the underlined part “congruent with” in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Unrelated to. B. Different from.
C. Consistent with. D. Independent of.
10. What do the researchers suggest policymakers do?
A. Give careful consideration to their findings.
B. Underline the advantages of the Internet more.
C. Make strict laws to monitor the Internet companies.
D. Carry out new laws instantly to ensure online safety.
11. Which is the most suitable title for the text?
A. The Dark Side of Internet Usage.
B. How the Internet Benefits the Youth.
C. The Decline of Social Well-Being in the Digital Age.
D. Internet’s Positive Impact on Well-Being Despite Concerns.
【答案】8. D 9. C 10. A 11. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了尽管有担忧,互联网对幸福感有积极影响。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。由第一段“In fact, it may also be a significant driver of life satisfaction and social well-being for many people. (事实上,对许多人来说,它也可能是生活满意度和社会福祉的重要驱动力)”以及第二段中“The findings revealed that in 85% of cases, Internet access and active Internet use were associated with higher levels of well-being. (研究结果显示,在85%的案例中,上网和积极使用互联网与更高水平的生活福祉相关)”可知,新研究的调查结果主要表明上网与更高水平的生活福祉相关。故选D。
【9题详解】
词句猜测题。由第三段“However, the study also identified a notable exception. In 5% of cases, Internet use was linked to negative outcomes, particularly among young women aged 15 to 24. They reported lower levels of well-being, a finding congruent with previous research that linked increased Internet usage to depression in young women and teenage girls. The reasons for this are complex but may include factors such as cyberbullying, social media-induced comparison, and the pressure to follow unrealistic online standards. (然而,研究也发现了一个显著的例外情况。在5%的案例中,互联网使用与负面结果相关,尤其是15至24岁的年轻女性。她们报告的福祉水平较低,这一发现congruent with之前将互联网使用增加与年轻女性和少女抑郁联系起来的研究结果。造成这种情况的原因很复杂,但可能包括网络欺凌、社交媒体引发的比较压力以及遵循不切实际的在线标准的压力等因素)”可知,网络欺凌、社交媒体引发的比较压力以及遵循不切实际的在线标准的压力等因素可能造成互联网使用与负面结果相关,她们报告的福祉水平较低,这一发现与先前的研究一致,此前的研究表明,年轻女性和十几岁的女孩使用互联网频率增加与抑郁症存在关联。故congruent with意思是“与……一致的”。与Consistent with“与某事物一致”意思相符。故选C。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。由倒数第二段“The researchers ask policymakers to carefully consider the data before carrying out new laws, emphasizing that while the Internet can have negative effects, it also has the potential to be a positive force.

【11题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是由第一段“However, a new study by the Oxford Internet Institute suggests that the Internet’s role in our lives is not entirely negative. In fact, it may also be a significant driver of life satisfaction and social well-being for many people. (然而,牛津互联网研究所的一项新研究表明,互联网在我们生活中的作用并不完全是负面的。事实上,对许多人来说,它也可能是生活满意度和社会福祉的重要驱动力)”可知,文章主要说明了尽管互联网常常受到批评,但是牛津互联网研究所的一项新研究表明,互联网在我们生活中的作用并不完全是负面的,它也可能是生活满意度和社会福祉的重要驱动力。文章还介绍了这项研究开展的过程、研究结果、研究意义等。可知,D选项“Internet’s Positive Impact on Well-Being Despite Concerns (尽管存在种种担忧,互联网仍对幸福感有着积极影响)”最符合文章标题。故选D。
D
A recent study published in Cell offers insights into how the brain clears waste during sleep. The research suggests that regular contractions of blood vessels (血管), driven by a chemical, play an important role. This mechanism, observed in mice, could have important effects on understanding sleep diseases and improving sleep aids.
Unlike other parts of the body, the brain lacks a typical waste-removal system. It depends on the glymphatic (胶质淋巴) system, which uses cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) (脑脊液) to clear away waste. Scientists were aware that the glymphatic system was more active during sleep, but the exact mechanism remained unclear.
To uncover it, a team led by Maiken Nedergaard at the University of Rochester Medical Center conducted an experiment. They put tiny devices into mice’s brains to monitor elements such as blood volume and chemical levels as the mice slept. During non-REM sleep, a stage when the brain undergoes self-repair, they found that a chemical named norepinephrine (去甲肾上腺素) was released. Norepinephrine causes blood vessels to contract. Its release and the corresponding change in blood volume occurred in a cycle, about every 50 seconds. Moreover, the team discovered that CSF flow also varied with norepinephrine levels.
To confirm this relationship, the scientists artificially increased the frequency of norepinephrine release in the mice’s brains. As a result, the CSF was able to move deeper into the brain. This proved that the regular movement of blood vessels drives the flow of CSF.
The research also examined the impact of the sleep drug zolpidem. It was found that zolpidem made the release of norepinephrine less regular and damaged the CSF’s waste-clearing ability. Despite its widespread use, the researchers emphasize the need for further human studies to fully understand its effects.
This study provides a clearer understanding of the brain’s self-cleaning process during sleep. Future work can focus on developing new sleep aids that preserve this essential brain-cleaning function. They will have a bright future.
12. What is the function of the glymphatic system?
A. To help the brain grow. B. To produce cerebrospinal fluid.
C. To remove waste from the brain. D. To monitor blood volume in the brain.
13. Why did Nedergaard’s team do the research on mice?
A. To develop new treatments for brain disorders.
B. To investigate a certain mechanism in the brain.
C. To study the effects of norepinephrine on blood vessels.
D. To understand the function of chemical levels in humans.
14. What is paragraph 5 mainly about?
A. A further human study for a sleep drug.
B. A new method to reduce waste-clearing ability.
C. An effective sleep aid to improve the brain activities.
D. The impact of zolpidem on brain waste-clearing functions.
15. What is the author’s attitude towards the future development of sleep aids?
A. Positive. B. Uncaring. C. Doubtful. D. Negative.
【答案】12. C 13. B 14. D 15. A

第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Supporting someone emotionally feels like walking a tightrope. ____16____ Here are some practical ways.
Ask specific questions. When offering emotional support, asking questions is a good start. But “How can I support you?” isn’t always the best. People may not know what they want or need, especially in tough situations. ____17____ For example, “I know he gave you a hard time. How have you been holding up?”
Be a good listener. ____18____ Listening actively, or sympathetically, is another important part of providing emotional support. When you really listen to someone, you give them your full attention. Being a good listener shows others you care about what they’re going through. For someone who’s struggling, knowing that someone else has heard their pain can make a big difference.
____19____ You might think you’re helping someone by telling them how to fix a problem. But generally speaking, people don’t want advice unless they request it. If they’ve moved from “complaining” to “talking through the problem”, use reflective questions to help them find solutions on their own. You might, for instance, say something like: “Have you been in a situation like this before? What helped then?”
Avoid judgment. Nobody likes being judged. Those in a tough situation due to their actions may already be self-judging. When seeking support, people don’t want criticism, even well-intentioned constructive criticism. Avoid asking questions that seem blaming or judgmental, like “So what made them so mad at you?” Even without direct judgment, tone can show emotion. Make sure your voice doesn’t sound disapproving. ____20____
A. Skip the advice.
B. Advise or fix the problem.
C. Ask tailored questions instead.
D. Asking questions isn’t enough.
E. Focus on sympathy when speaking.
F. Many struggle to find the right balance.
G. It can improve anyone’s outlook and wellness.
【答案】16. F 17. C 18. D 19. A 20. E
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍在情感上支持他人的实用方法,包括问针对性问题、做倾听者、避免给建议及不评判等。
【16题详解】
由上文“Supporting someone emotionally feels like walking a tightrope. (在情感上支持某人就像走钢丝。)”可知,在情感上支持他人是一件很有难度的事情,需要把握好度。而F项Many struggle to find the right balance. (很多人都在努力寻找合适的平衡。)进一步说明了很多人在做这件事时面临的困难,即难以找到平衡,与上文“走钢丝” 所表达的难度相呼应,起到了承接上文的作用。故选F项。
【17题详解】
根据上文“When offering emotional support, asking questions is a good start. But “How can I support you?” isn’t always the best. People may not know what they want or need, especially in tough situations. (当提供情感支持时,提问是一个好的开始。但是 “我该如何支持你呢?” 并不总是最好的问题。人们可能不知道他们想要或需要什么,尤其是在艰难的情况下。)”以及下文“For example,‘I know he gave you a hard time. How have you been holding up?’(例如,‘我知道他让你日子不好过。你最近过得怎么样?’)”可知,上文指出一般性的提问不好,下文给出了具体的合适的提问例子,所以中间应该是说要问合适的、有针对性的问题。而C项Ask tailored questions instead. (相反,要问有针对性的问题。)符合语境,起到了承上启下的作用。故选C项。
【18题详解】
根据上文“Ask specific questions. (问具体的问题。)”以及下文“Listening actively, or sympathetically, is another important part of providing emotional support. (积极地或同情地倾听,是提供情感支持的另一个重要部分。)”可知,上文强调了提问,下文强调了倾听也是很重要的,所以此处应该是说仅仅提问是不够的。而D项Asking questions isn’t enough. (仅仅提问是不够的。)符合语境,能够很好地连接上下文。故选D项。
【19题详解】
根据下文“You might think you’re helping someone by telling them how to fix a problem. But generally speaking, people don’t want advice unless they request it. (你可能认为通过告诉别人如何解决问题就是在帮助他们。但一般来说,人们不想要建议,除非他们自己要求。)”可知,这段主要讲的是在提供情感支持时,不要轻易给别人建议,除非别人要求。而A项Skip the advice. (跳过建议。)能够很好地概括这段的主旨。故选A项。
【20题详解】
根据上文“Avoid judgment. Nobody likes being judged. Those in a tough situation due to their actions may already be self-judging. When seeking support, people don’t want criticism, even well-intentioned constructive criticism. Avoid asking questions that seem blaming or judgmental, like “So what made them so mad at you?” Even without direct judgment, tone can show emotion. Make sure your voice doesn’t sound disapproving. (避免评判。没有人喜欢被评判。那些因为自己的行为而处于艰难处境的人可能已经在自我评判了。当寻求支持时,人们不想要批评,即使是善意的建设性批评。避免问那些似乎带有指责或评判性的问题,比如 “那么是什么让他们对你这么生气呢?” 即使没有直接的评判,语气也能表现出情感。确保你的声音听起来不像是不赞成的。)”可知,这段主要讲的是在与需要情感支持的人交流时要避免评判,注意语气。而E项Focus on sympathy when speaking. (说话时要专注于同情。)符合语境,强调了在交流时要表达出同情,而不是评判,与上文内容相呼应。故选E项。

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。
When Cynthia was a young girl, a screening of Star Wars changed her life. The adorable R2-D2 in the movie inspired her dream of creating a robot friend.
College was a challenging start. She struggled with difficult engineering courses and failed a robotics exam. Instead of giving up, she spent countless nights in the library, devoted to her studies. Eventually, she graduated with an engineering degree.
After graduation, she joined a team under a famous robotics professor to develop a planet-exploring robot. They faced numerous difficulties, especially disagreements within the team on the design. Cynthia firmly insisted on her ideas and finally, they overcame the barriers. However, when the robot was completed, Cynthia realized it lacked the function of companionship she had pictured.
Determined to create a truly friendly robot, Cynthia focused on a project for hospitalized children. She visited local hospitals, had in-depth discussions with medical staff and consulted several child psychologists. These experts shared their insights on children’s emotional needs during hospitalization, such as the importance of consistent companionship and the role of positive distractions (分心的事物). Equipped with them, Cynthia began the creation of Huggable, a teddy-bear-shaped robot.
During its development, Cynthia faced financial shortages. She spent months presenting her project to various investors, suffering countless rejections. But her passion and determination paid off when a local tech-enthusiast learned about her vision and provided the necessary funds. A partner’s departure also left her short-handed, but she reached out to former classmates and brought in a new, devoted team member. Now, Huggable is in a local children’s hospital, bringing comfort to young patients.
However, as Huggable’s influence grew, so did controversy (争议). Some people worried that relying too much on a robot for comfort might affect children s normal emotional and social development. They argued that children needed real-human interaction to learn communication skills. Articles and comments against Huggable started appearing on the Internet. Soon, the hospital received calls from concerned parents, demanding an explanation.
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。
Facing controversy, Cynthia stood firm, ready to respond positively.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Encouraged by the successful meeting, Cynthia focused on making Huggable even better.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
Facing controversy, Cynthia stood firm, ready to respond positively. She organized a public meeting, inviting those child psychologists she consulted, doctors, and some young patients. A psychologist stated, “Huggable is a great emotional release for children in hospital. It helps them deal with fear and loneliness.” Doctors also showed how Huggable could monitor children’s vital signs while entertaining them, which was a huge help during treatment. Some young patients came on stage, sharing how they played and talked with Huggable. Their enthusiasm convinced the audience, gradually changing their negative views.
Encouraged by the successful meeting, Cynthia focused on making Huggable even better. She led her team to dive back into research, cooperating with child psychologists again. They added more interactive features, like telling personalized stories based on children’s interests. They also improved Huggable’s appearance, making it look even more like a real teddy bear. With these improvements, Huggable became even more popular in the hospital. It offered children consistent companionship and helped them grow healthily. Seeing Huggable’s positive impact, Cynthia felt a deep sense of fulfillment. Her childhood dream of creating a robot friend was steadily becoming a reality.
【解析】
【导语】文章以人物为线索,主要讲述了Cynthia如何克服困难,实现梦想,创造出Huggable机器人,并面对争议,积极回应,最终使Huggable成为儿童情感和社交发展的工具。
【详解】1.段落续写:
① 由第一段首句“面对争议,辛西娅立场坚定,准备积极回应。”可知,本段可描述Cynthia如何面对公众对Huggable的争议,并通过组织公开会议和多方合作,成功地改变了人们对机器人可能影响儿童情感和社会发展的负面看法。
②由第二段首句“在这次成功会面的鼓舞下,辛西娅专注于把Huggable做得更好。”可知,本段可描写Cynthia在会议成功后,进一步改进Huggable,增加互动功能,促进儿童情感和社交发展。
2.续写线索:组织会议——解释设计初衷并展示数据——专家支持——父母理解——会议成功——改进Huggable——增加互动功能——促进情感和社交发展——团队受鼓舞——Huggable影响增强
3.词汇激活
行为类
①组织:organize→arrange
②展示:show→showcase
③改善:improve→enhance
情绪类
①消极的:negative→passive
②积极的:positive→vigorous

If you plan to have an expressive trip during 2025, the following are some destinations you can carefully consider.
Costa Rica, Guanacaste
Costa Rica is well-known for its positive, easy-going outlook that invites travelers to slip off their shoes and sink onto a beach blanket, or speed through the rainforest canopy on a rope line. The best time to visit for the best beach days is in January and February. Many restaurants here automatically add a 10% service charge.
The Athens Riviera, Athens
A long-kept secret is finally out: The 35-mile stretch of coast known as the Athens Riviera is becoming the city’s second center. With its pleasant beaches, day-to-night bars and busy shops and restaurants, it’s hard to deny the area’s attraction. If you’re aiming for beach-perfect weather, the most suitable period to come here is between May and September.
Antwerp, Belgium
Since the Renaissance, Antwerp has been a global standard-bearer of design. Today, it’s more dynamic than ever. As other cities battle with overtourism, creative, uncrowded Antwerp increasingly seems like the place to be. Spring and fall bring the best weather, but the city is less crowded in the summer. Tipping is not required, as many restaurants add a 5% to 10% service charge to the bill.
Bahia, Brazil
Bahia is known for its tree-lined coast, with quiet beaches, rough Chapada Diamantina National Park (an ideal destination for hiking and waterfall spotting) and a historic center recognized by UNESCO. The best time to visit is during the summer months (as a reminder, in the southern hemisphere, that’s December to March), for great weather and Carnival.
1. When are travelers recommended to visit the Athens Riviera?
A. In January. B. In March. C. In July. D. In December.
2. What can visitors do in Antwerp?
A. Sunbathe on the beach. B. Admire some design works.
C. Learn information about a battle. D. Have an adventure in the rainforest.
3 Which destination may attract history enthusiasts?
A. Bahia. B. Antwerp. C. Costa Rica. D. The Athens Riviera.
B
As night falls, a hedgehog(刺猬) peeks its nose through a doorway far too small for any human to use. This five-inch-tall secret passage was made just for hedgehogs.
Over the past few decades, European hedgehog habitat has been carved up as people turned natural public spaces into private, walled-off gardens. Although hedgehogs can thrive in gardens, they need plenty of roaming room to find food, mates, and places to hibernate(冬眠). But walls, fences, and other barriers block the hedgehogs’ movements and reduce their population.
European hedgehogs are now in danger of extinction in the United Kingdom. So local conservationists came up with a solution. “We make small gaps in and under people’s fences that basically let the hedgehogs into their gardens,” says Grace Johnson, hedgehog officer for the Hedgehog Street campaign, a nationwide effort by the People’s Trust for Endangered Species and the British Hedgehog Preservation Society. “We call them ‘hedgehog highways’!”
Conservationists and the volunteers who created holes in their fences sometimes use camera traps to make sure the system is working. But they also rely on more low-tech methods: They place sticks at the openings of the holes. If a stick is knocked down, they’ll know a hedgehog passed through.
According to Grace Johnson, most people who install a door report more hedgehog activity in their backyard. That’s good news for gardeners: The little visitors keep down the numbers of crop-eating caterpillars and other insects.
Thanks to the highway system, more than 40,000 gardens in the United Kingdom are now connected, and the group is adding more each year. Keep cruising, hedgehogs!

The Internet is often criticized as a source of many modern-day challenges, from comparison traps and information overload to negativity biases. These issues are closely associated with our digital culture, raising concerns about its impact on mental health and social well-being. However, a new study by the Oxford Internet Institute suggests that the Internet’s role in our lives is not entirely negative. In fact, it may also be a significant driver of life satisfaction and social well-being for many people.
The study, which analyzed data from 168 countries between 2006 and 2021, involved over two million participants aged 15 to 99. Researchers examined eight indicators of well-being, including life satisfaction, daily positive and negative experiences, and community well-being. The findings revealed that in 85% of cases, Internet access and active Internet use were associated with higher levels of well-being. For the majority of individuals, the Internet serves as a powerful tool for connection, education, and personal growth. It enables people to access valuable resources, maintain relationships, and engage with communities, all of which contribute to a sense of fulfillment and happiness.
However, the study also identified a notable exception. In 5% of cases, Internet use was linked to negative outcomes, particularly among young women aged 15 to 24. They reported lower levels of well-being, a finding congruent with previous research that linked increased Internet usage to depression in young women and teenage girls. The reasons for this are complex but may include factors such as cyberbullying, social media-induced comparison, and the pressure to follow unrealistic online standards.
The timing of this research is significant, as governments worldwide are considering new laws and guidelines to address concerns about online safety. The researchers ask policymakers to carefully consider the data before carrying out new laws, emphasizing that while the Internet can have negative effects, it also has the potential to be a positive force. With proper guidance, education, and safety measures, the Internet can continue to enhance well-being for many.
In conclusion, while the Internet is not without its challenges, its impact on society is multifaceted (多方面的). For most, it is a source of connection, knowledge, and empowerment. By addressing its downsides and making use of its benefits, we can create a digital environment that supports and enriches lives globally.
8. What do the findings of the new study mainly show?
A. Young people are the main users of the Internet.
B. The Internet is criticized for information overload.
C. Adults benefit more from the Internet than other age groups.
D. Internet access is linked to higher levels of well-being in most cases.
9. What does the underlined part “congruent with” in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A Unrelated to. B. Different from.

A recent study published in Cell offers insights into how the brain clears waste during sleep. The research suggests that regular contractions of blood vessels (血管), driven by a chemical, play an important role. This mechanism, observed in mice, could have important effects on understanding sleep diseases and improving sleep aids.
Unlike other parts of the body, the brain lacks a typical waste-removal system. It depends on the glymphatic (胶质淋巴) system, which uses cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) (脑脊液) to clear away waste. Scientists were aware that the glymphatic system was more active during sleep, but the exact mechanism remained unclear.
To uncover it a team led by Maiken Nedergaard at the University of Rochester Medical Center conducted an experiment. They put tiny devices into mice’s brains to monitor elements such as blood volume and chemical levels as the mice slept. During non-REM sleep, a stage when the brain undergoes self-repair, they found that a chemical named norepinephrine (去甲肾上腺素) was released. Norepinephrine causes blood vessels to contract. Its release and the corresponding change in blood volume occurred in a cycle, about every 50 seconds. Moreover, the team discovered that CSF flow also varied with norepinephrine levels.
To confirm this relationship, the scientists artificially increased the frequency of norepinephrine release in the mice’s brains. As a result, the CSF was able to move deeper into the brain. This proved that the regular movement of blood vessels drives the flow of CSF.
The research also examined the impact of the sleep drug zolpidem. It was found that zolpidem made the release of norepinephrine less regular and damaged the CSF’s waste-clearing ability. Despite its widespread use, the researchers emphasize the need for further human studies to fully understand its effects.
This study provides a clearer understanding of the brain’s self-cleaning process during sleep. Future work can focus on developing new sleep aids that preserve this essential brain-cleaning function. They will have a bright future.
12. What is the function of the glymphatic system?
A. To help the brain grow. B. To produce cerebrospinal fluid.
C. To remove waste from the brain. D. To monitor blood volume in the brain.
13. Why did Nedergaard’s team do the research on mice?
A. To develop new treatments for brain disorders.
B. To investigate a certain mechanism in the brain.
C. To study the effects of norepinephrine on blood vessels.
D. To understand the function of chemical levels in humans.
14. What is paragraph 5 mainly about?
A. A further human study for a sleep drug.
B. A new method to reduce waste-clearing ability.
C. An effective sleep aid to improve the brain activities.
D. The impact of zolpidem on brain waste-clearing functions.
15. What is the author’s attitude towards the future development of sleep aids?
A. Positive. B. Uncaring. C. Doubtful. D. Negative.

Supporting someone emotionally feels like walking a tightrope. ____16____ Here are some practical ways.
Ask specific questions. When offering emotional support, asking questions is a good start. But “How can I support you?” isn’t always the best. People may not know what they want or need, especially in tough situations. ____17____ For example, “I know he gave you a hard time. How have you been holding up?”
Be a good listener. ____18____ Listening actively, or sympathetically, is another important part of providing emotional support. When you really listen to someone, you give them your full attention. Being a good listener shows others you care about what they’re going through. For someone who’s struggling, knowing that someone else has heard their pain can make a big difference.
____19____ You might think you’re helping someone by telling them how to fix a problem. But generally speaking, people don’t want advice unless they request it. If they’ve moved from “complaining” to “talking through the problem”, use reflective questions to help them find solutions on their own. You might, for instance, say something like: “Have you been in a situation like this before? What helped then?”
Avoid judgment. Nobody likes being judged. Those in a tough situation due to their actions may already be self-judging. When seeking support, people don’t want criticism, even well-intentioned constructive criticism. Avoid asking questions that seem blaming or judgmental, like “So what made them so mad at you?” Even without direct judgment, tone can show emotion. Make sure your voice doesn’t sound disapproving. ____20____
A. Skip the advice.
B. Advise or fix the problem.
C. Ask tailored questions instead.
D. Asking questions isn’t enough.
E. Focus on sympathy when speaking.
F. Many struggle to find the right balance.
G. It can improve anyone’s outlook and wellness.

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。
When Cynthia was a young girl, a screening of Star Wars changed her life. The adorable R2-D2 in the movie inspired her dream of creating a robot friend.
College was a challenging start. She struggled with difficult engineering courses and failed a robotics exam. Instead of giving up, she spent countless nights in the library, devoted to her studies. Eventually, she graduated with an engineering degree.
After graduation, she joined a team under a famous robotics professor to develop a planet-exploring robot. They faced numerous difficulties, especially disagreements within the team on the design. Cynthia firmly insisted on her ideas and finally, they overcame the barriers. However, when the robot was completed, Cynthia realized it lacked the function of companionship she had pictured.
Determined to create a truly friendly robot, Cynthia focused on a project for hospitalized children. She visited local hospitals, had in-depth discussions with medical staff and consulted several child psychologists. These experts shared their insights on children’s emotional needs during hospitalization, such as the importance of consistent companionship and the role of positive distractions (分心的事物). Equipped with them, Cynthia began the creation of Huggable, a teddy-bear-shaped robot.
During its development, Cynthia faced financial shortages. She spent months presenting her project to various investors, suffering countless rejections. But her passion and determination paid off when a local tech-enthusiast learned about her vision and provided the necessary funds. A partner’s departure also left her short-handed, but she reached out to former classmates and brought in a new, devoted team member. Now, Huggable is in a local children’s hospital, bringing comfort to young patients.
However, as Huggable’s influence grew, so did controversy (争议). Some people worried that relying too much on a robot for comfort might affect children s normal emotional and social development. They argued that children needed real-human interaction to learn communication skills. Articles and comments against Huggable started appearing on the Internet. Soon, the hospital received calls from concerned parents, demanding an explanation.
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。
Facing controversy, Cynthia stood firm, ready to respond positively.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Encouraged by the successful meeting, Cynthia focused on making Huggable even better.
