B In the quiet town of Greenfield, situated in the hills of upstate New York, David Lee had built a life around his art. His small studio in an old Victorian house was a sanctuary (庇护所) where he painted landscapes that captured (展现) the heart of the town he loved. The walls were covered with pieces of art, each one reflecting his dedication and passion. One crisp autumn evening, as the sun set, casting a golden glow over the town, David worked on what he believed was his best piece yet. Lost in his work, he barely noticed a flash of light in the corner of his eye. It was a neighbor who first saw the smoke. By the time David realized what was happening, the fire had spread through half of his studio. He rushed outside, horrified to see the flames (火焰) consuming everything he had worked so hard for. Within minutes, his studio was reduced to ashes. The following days were clouded with sorrow. David wandered the streets of Greenfield, confused and with no purpose. Friends and neighbors offered their support, but nothing could replace the years of work destroyed. One evening, as he sat on a bench in the town square, he noticed children drawing with chalk on the pavement. Their laughter and creativity cut through his despair. David realized his passion for art wasn’t tied to the physical space of his studio. It was something deeper within him. He decided to start over, to rebuild his life and art anew. With the help of his friends, David set up a small workspace in the community center. He began painting again, this time with renewed purpose. His first piece was an acknowledgment of Greenfield, capturing the town’s resilience (坚韧). As he painted, he felt a sense of peace he hadn’t felt in weeks. One day, while finishing a challenging piece, a young girl approached him. “What are you painting?” she asked. David smiled. “It’s a story,” he said. “A story of resilience and hope.” The girl nodded, her eyes reflecting the colors on the painting. “It’s beautiful,” she said. David felt warmth in his chest. He realized his art was about more than just paintings — it was about connecting with others and sharing his journey. From then on, David painted not only for himself but for everyone who needed a reminder of the beauty in the world. Though his studio had changed, his passion for art had been renewed, and in that, he found a new kind of resilience. 24. How did David feel after the fire destroyed his studio? A. Angry and bitter. B. Grateful and content. C. Lost and empty. D. Anxious and regretful. 25. What is the significance of the children drawing on the pavement? A. Their creativity helps David find joy again. B. They are a reminder of the fire’s destruction. C. They represent the future of art in Greenfield. D. They show how the town has forgotten about David’s art. 26 What is the theme of David’s first new painting after the fire? A. Renewal. B. Resilience. C. Peace. D. Passion. 27. What can we learn from the passage? A. The flash today is the silence tomorrow. B. The less you expect, the more you appreciate. C. The flame that burns you may also light your way. D. The greatest roadblocks are the ones you cannot see. C The human being is a “social animal,” as Aristotle suggested. We have a fundamental need to belong. Yet we find ourselves in the middle of an epidemic of loneliness and isolation. How, then, might we encourage the feelings of connectedness that are so crucial to our well-being? Over the past several years, my colleagues and I have conducted scientific studies suggesting that experiential purchases tend to bring people more happiness than material ones. In recent research, we investigated another downstream consequence of spending on experiences rather than things: it can promote a greater sense of social connection. We conducted a series of 13 experiments involving 1,980 participants. We asked people to think about either experiential or material purchases they had made and then rate their thoughts and feelings about those purchases on nine-point scales. In some of our studies, people reported feeling more connection with someone who had made the same experiential purchase than someone who had made the same material purchase. This reflects the fact that experiential purchases are more central to an individual’s identity: our data show that people feel more similar to and more connection with someone who purchases the same experience as them because they believe this kind of consumption tends to represent more of one’s true, essential sense of self. These findings apply even when people think about how their experiences differ. Knowing that another person has a better version of what you have can create a sense of social distance. What we observe, however, is that this distance feels less wide when it comes to experiential purchases compared with material ones. We also discovered that experiential consumption fosters (促进) a sense of social connectedness more broadly, not just to those who have made a similar purchase. People who reflected on experiences they had acquired — rather than material goods — reported a broader sense of connection to humanity. Finally, we found that after people think about a fulfilling experience, they express a greater desire to engage in social activities than they do after they reflect on an important possession. Experiences connect us with others, and they provide memories of such connection that people can revisit. These memories, in turn, can encourage engagement in even more sociality. One clear takeaway from this research — like the many studies on experiential spending and happiness done to date — is that people would likely be wise to increase their spending on “doing” rather than “having.” But our work points to another implication as well. Communities could benefit in many ways from encouraging experiential pursuits. Policymakers can support access to public parks, beaches and museums, for example. Improved funding for the arts and performance spaces can be a way for communities to ensure that shared experiences continue to bring people together. Directing resources toward more community engagement might promote improvements in societal well-being. 28. What can be learned about experiential purchases? A. They effectively prevent social distancing. B. They promote involvement in social events. C. They allow people to discover their true selves. D. They reduce the likelihood of social comparison. 29. According to the passage, policymakers had better _______. A. address the funding challenges of communities B. advocate the importance of social well-being C. prioritize the construction of public spaces D. finance local cultural events and festivals 30. What is the purpose of this passage? A. To argue against materialism in modern society. B To suggest ways to reduce loneliness and isolation. C. To compare the economic value of goods and experiences. D. To show how experiences boost connection and well-being. D A theme at this year’s World Economic Forum (WEF) meeting was the perceived need to “accelerate breakthroughs in research and technology.” Some of this discussion was motivated by the climate emergency, some by the opportunities and challenges presented by generative artificial intelligence. Yet in various conversations, it seemed to be taken for granted that to address the world’s problems, scientific research needs to move faster. The WEF meeting took place just two weeks after Harvard University President Claudine Gay stepped down after complaints were made about her political science scholarship. Gay’s troubles came after Stanford University President Marc Tessier Lavigne stepped down, after an internal investigation concluded that his neuroscience research had “multiple problems” and “fell below customary standards of scientific rigor.” Although it may be impossible to determine just how widespread such problems really are, it’s hard to imagine that the phenomenon of high-profile scholars correcting and withdrawing papers has not had a negative impact on public trust in science and perhaps in experts broadly. In recent years we’ve seen important papers withdrawn because of questionable data or methods. In one interesting case, Frances H. Arnold, who shared the 2018Nobel Prize in Chemistry, voluntarily withdrew a paper when her lab was unable to reproduce her results — but after the paper had been published. In an open apology, she stated that she was “a bit busy” when the paper was submitted and “did not do my job well.” Arnold’s honesty is admirable, but it raises a question: Are scholars at highly competitive places such as Harvard and Standford rushing to publishing rather than taking the time to do their work right? It’s impossible to answer this question scientifically because there’s no scientific definition of what constitutes “rushing”. But there’s little doubt that we live in a culture where academics at leading universities are under enormous pressure to produce results — and a lot of them — quickly. However, nearly a century passed between biochemist Friedrich Miescher’s identification of the DNA molecule and suggestion that it might be involved in inheritance (遗传) and the clarification of its double-helix (双螺旋) structure in the 1950s. And it took just about half a century for geologists and geophysicists to accept Alfred Wegener’s idea of continental drift (漂移). There’s plenty of circumstantial evidence that scientists and other scholars are pushing results out far faster than they used to. One recent study put the number at more than seven million a year, compared with fewer than a million as recently as 1980. Another study found 265 academic authors — two thirds of whom were in the medical and life sciences — published a paper every five days on average. The numbers suggest that the research world has prioritized quantity over quality. Researchers may need to slow down — not speed up — if we are to produce knowledge worthy of trust. 31. What does the word “rigor” underlined in Paragraph 2 most probably mean? A. Quickness and convenience. B. Flexibility and openness. C. Strictness and precision. D. Fame and popularity. 32. DNA and continental drift are examples to demonstrate that _______. A. good science takes time B. science advances with time C. research across disciplines is needed D. breakthroughs seldom happen by chance 33. Which of the following situations can best reflect the author’s concern? A. A researcher fails to produce evidence for his paper. B. A university loses young talent due to a lack of funding. C. An editor overlooks the errors in a writer’s research methods. D. A scholar publishes a paper with limited data to gain recognition. 34. Which would be the best title for the passage? A. The Danger of Fast Science B. The Need for Trust in Science C. An Alarming Warning to Science Editors D. A Popular Trend towards Rushing Science 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的七个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。 In our fast-paced, technology-driven world, the act of eating has transformed from a mindful practice to an often hurried and distracted (分心的) activity. Distracted eating, characterized by consuming food while engaging in other activities such as watching television, scrolling through smartphones, or working at a desk, is becoming increasingly widespread. ____35____ The common presence of digital devices and the constant demands of modern life have contributed to the rise of distracted eating. ____36____ For instance, office workers frequently eat lunch while replying to emails, and students snack during online classes. This behavior is not limited to any specific age group. Distracted eating has several negative effects on physical and mental health. When attention is divided between eating and another activity, it becomes challenging to recognize signals of being full. ____37____ Studies have shown a correlation between distracted eating and an increased intake of calories, contributing to weight gain and obesity. Eating while distracted can impair digestion. The body needs to be in a relaxed state for proper digestion, but multitasking can create a state of mild stress, affecting the digestive process. This can lead to discomfort, bloating, and other gastrointestinal issues. ____38____ This reduces the overall nutritional quality of the diet, impacting long-term health. The practice of mindful eating, which involves paying full attention to the experience of eating, has been linked to improved mental health outcomes. In contrast, distracted eating can contribute to stress and anxiety, as it reduces the enjoyment and satisfaction of meals. ____39____ Creating specific areas for eating, free from digital devices and work related materials helps to establish a clear boundary between mealtime and other activities. Establishing and following regular meal times can reduce the temptation to cat while multitasking. This encourages a more structured approach to eating. Engage in mindful eating by focusing on the sensory experience of food — its taste, texture, and aroma. This can enhance the enjoyment of meals and improve satiety recognition. As awareness of the issue grows, it is hoped that more people will recognize the benefits of mindful eating and make conscious (自觉的) efforts to enjoy their meals fully and healthily. A. Addressing distracted eating requires conscious effort and lifestyle changes. B. Over time, this habit may weaken the brain’s ability to associate food with satisfaction. C. Eating in response to boredom, rather than genuine hunger, is a frequent consequence of such behavior. D. This shift in eating habits has significant consequences for our health and well-being. E. This can lead to overeating, as individuals are less aware of how much they have consumed. F. People are multitasking more than ever, trying to maximize productivity by combining meal times with other activities. G. Distracted eaters may make poorer food choices, choosing convenience foods that are often high in sugar, fat, and salt. 第三部分：书面表达（共两节，32分） 第一节（共4小题；第40、41题各2分，第42题3分，第43题5分，共12分） 阅读下面短文，根据题目要求用英文回答问题。请在答题卡指定区域作答。 If you listen to some self-improvement lectures about success, you’ll hear a familiar saying: Hustle (忙碌) harder. It sounds like success is just a matter of willpower and that the life of your dreams is within reach. Many young people are buying into this mindset, spending every waking hour working toward ambitious goals, only to find themselves worn out and unfulfilled. Hustle culture promises success, but it often leads to burnout and disappointment. The truth is that success and fulfillment don’t come from constant struggle. They come from something deeper and more sustainable: persistence (坚持). Hustle culture praises big goals. But what the experts won’t tell you is that most of those goals require a mix of timing, luck, and sometimes even genetics. No matter how hard you hustle, success isn’t always within your control. Persistence culture, on the other hand, takes a different approach. Instead of focusing on massive, high-risk goals, it emphasizes consistent effort over time. It encourages growth, learning, and steady improvement—factors that are within your control. Hustle culture focuses on goals ignoring the process. It tells you to chase success at all costs, even if that means doing things you hate along the way. For example, you love podcasting (制作播客). You enjoy the connection with your audience. But if you follow hustle culture, your focus shifts to profit, audience growth, and social media engagement. To “succeed,” you have to learn marketing strategies that you don’t actually enjoy. Persistence culture, in contrast, prioritizes the process itself. It asks: Do you enjoy what you’re doing? When you love the process, you don’t need external approval to keep going. Success becomes a byproduct of consistency and passion. Instead of measuring success by external factors, it asks: How can I improve? Maybe your podcast isn’t getting millions of downloads, but are you becoming a better interviewer? Are you developing new skills? These are the measures that matter because they’re within your control. 40. How do many young people feel after following the “hustle harder” mindset? ________________________________________________________ 41. Where do success and fulfillment come from? ________________________________________________________ 42. Please decide which part is false in the following statement, then underline it and explain why. > Hustle culture focuses on massive, high-risk goals, measures success by external factors and prioritizes the process. ________________________________________________________ 43. How are you going to put “Persistence Culture” into practice in your daily life?

His small studio in an old Victorian house was a sanctuary (庇护所) where he painted landscapes that captured (展现) the heart of the town he loved. The walls were covered with pieces of art, each one reflecting his dedication and passion. One crisp autumn evening, as the sun set, casting a golden glow over the town, David worked on what he believed was his best piece yet. Lost in his work, he barely noticed a flash of light in the corner of his eye. It was a neighbor who first saw the smoke. By the time David realized what was happening, the fire had spread through half of his studio. He rushed outside, horrified to see the flames (火焰) consuming everything he had worked so hard for. Within minutes, his studio was reduced to ashes. The following days were clouded with sorrow. David wandered the streets of Greenfield, confused and with no purpose. Friends and neighbors offered their support, but nothing could replace the years of work destroyed. One evening, as he sat on a bench in the town square, he noticed children drawing with chalk on the pavement. Their laughter and creativity cut through his despair. David realized his passion for art wasn’t tied to the physical space of his studio. It was something deeper within him. He decided to start over, to rebuild his life and art anew. With the help of his friends, David set up a small workspace in the community center. He began painting again, this time with renewed purpose. His first piece was an acknowledgment of Greenfield, capturing the town’s resilience (坚韧). As he painted, he felt a sense of peace he hadn’t felt in weeks. One day, while finishing a challenging piece, a young girl approached him. “What are you painting?” she asked. David smiled. “It’s a story,” he said. “A story of resilience and hope.” The girl nodded, her eyes reflecting the colors on the painting. “It’s beautiful,” she said. David felt warmth in his chest. He realized his art was about more than just paintings — it was about connecting with others and sharing his journey. From then on, David painted not only for himself but for everyone who needed a reminder of the beauty in the world. Though his studio had changed, his passion for art had been renewed, and in that, he found a new kind of resilience. 24. How did David feel after the fire destroyed his studio? A. Angry and bitter. B. Grateful and content. C. Lost and empty. D. Anxious and regretful. 25. What is the significance of the children drawing on the pavement? A. Their creativity helps David find joy again. B. They are a reminder of the fire’s destruction. C. They represent the future of art in Greenfield. D. They show how the town has forgotten about David’s art. 26. What is the theme of David’s first new painting after the fire? A. Renewal. B. Resilience. C. Peace. D. Passion. 27. What can we learn from the passage? A. The flash today is the silence tomorrow. B. The less you expect, the more you appreciate. C. The flame that burns you may also light your way. D. The greatest roadblocks are the ones you cannot see. 【答案】24. C 25. A 26. B 27.

We have a fundamental need to belong. Yet we find ourselves in the middle of an epidemic of loneliness and isolation. How, then, might we encourage the feelings of connectedness that are so crucial to our well-being? Over the past several years, my colleagues and I have conducted scientific studies suggesting that experiential purchases tend to bring people more happiness than material ones. In recent research, we investigated another downstream consequence of spending on experiences rather than things: it can promote a greater sense of social connection. We conducted a series of 13 experiments involving 1,980 participants. We asked people to think about either experiential or material purchases they had made and then rate their thoughts and feelings about those purchases on nine-point scales. In some of our studies, people reported feeling more connection with someone who had made the same experiential purchase than someone who had made the same material purchase. This reflects the fact that experiential purchases are more central to an individual’s identity: our data show that people feel more similar to and more connection with someone who purchases the same experience as them because they believe this kind of consumption tends to represent more of one’s true, essential sense of self. These findings apply even when people think about how their experiences differ. Knowing that another person has a better version of what you have can create a sense of social distance. What we observe, however, is that this distance feels less wide when it comes to experiential purchases compared with material ones. We also discovered that experiential consumption fosters (促进) a sense of social connectedness more broadly, not just to those who have made a similar purchase. People who reflected on experiences they had acquired — rather than material goods — reported a broader sense of connection to humanity. Finally, we found that after people think about a fulfilling experience, they express a greater desire to engage in social activities than they do after they reflect on an important possession. Experiences connect us with others, and they provide memories of such connection that people can revisit. These memories, in turn, can encourage engagement in even more sociality. One clear takeaway from this research — like the many studies on experiential spending and happiness done to date — is that people would likely be wise to increase their spending on “doing” rather than “having.” But our work points to another implication as well. Communities could benefit in many ways from encouraging experiential pursuits. Policymakers can support access to public parks, beaches and museums, for example. Improved funding for the arts and performance spaces can be a way for communities to ensure that shared experiences continue to bring people together. Directing resources toward more community engagement might promote improvements in societal well-being. 28. What can be learned about experiential purchases? A. They effectively prevent social distancing. B. They promote involvement in social events. C. They allow people to discover their true selves. D. They reduce the likelihood of social comparison. 29. According to the passage, policymakers had better _______.

Yet in various conversations, it seemed to be taken for granted that to address the world’s problems, scientific research needs to move faster. The WEF meeting took place just two weeks after Harvard University President Claudine Gay stepped down after complaints were made about her political science scholarship. Gay’s troubles came after Stanford University President Marc Tessier Lavigne stepped down, after an internal investigation concluded that his neuroscience research had “multiple problems” and “fell below customary standards of scientific rigor.” Although it may be impossible to determine just how widespread such problems really are, it’s hard to imagine that the phenomenon of high-profile scholars correcting and withdrawing papers has not had a negative impact on public trust in science and perhaps in experts broadly. In recent years we’ve seen important papers withdrawn because of questionable data or methods. In one interesting case, Frances H. Arnold, who shared the 2018Nobel Prize in Chemistry, voluntarily withdrew a paper when her lab was unable to reproduce her results — but after the paper had been published. In an open apology, she stated that she was “a bit busy” when the paper was submitted and “did not do my job well.” Arnold’s honesty is admirable, but it raises a question: Are scholars at highly competitive places such as Harvard and Standford rushing to publishing rather than taking the time to do their work right? It’s impossible to answer this question scientifically because there’s no scientific definition of what constitutes “rushing”. But there’s little doubt that we live in a culture where academics at leading universities are under enormous pressure to produce results — and a lot of them — quickly. However, nearly a century passed between biochemist Friedrich Miescher’s identification of the DNA molecule and suggestion that it might be involved in inheritance (遗传) and the clarification of its double-helix (双螺旋) structure in the 1950s. And it took just about half a century for geologists and geophysicists to accept Alfred Wegener’s idea of continental drift (漂移). There’s plenty of circumstantial evidence that scientists and other scholars are pushing results out far faster than they used to. One recent study put the number at more than seven million a year, compared with fewer than a million as recently as 1980. Another study found 265 academic authors — two thirds of whom were in the medical and life sciences — published a paper every five days on average. The numbers suggest that the research world has prioritized quantity over quality. Researchers may need to slow down — not speed up — if we are to produce knowledge worthy of trust. 31. What does the word “rigor” underlined in Paragraph 2 most probably mean? A. Quickness and convenience. B. Flexibility and openness. C. Strictness and precision. D. Fame and popularity. 32. DNA and continental drift are examples to demonstrate that _______. A. good science takes time B. science advances with time C. research across disciplines is needed D. breakthroughs seldom happen by chance 33. Which of the following situations can best reflect the author’s concern? A. A researcher fails to produce evidence for his paper. B. A university loses young talent due to a lack of funding. C. An editor overlooks the errors in a writer’s research methods. D. A scholar publishes a paper with limited data to gain recognition. 34. Which would be the best title for the passage? A. The Danger of Fast Science B. The Need for Trust in Science C. An Alarming Warning to Science Editors D. A Popular Trend towards Rushing Science 【答案】31. C 32. A 33. D 34. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了如今科学研究存在急于发表论文，过于注重数量导致了很多问题。 【31题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“his neuroscience research had “multiple problems” and “fell below customary standards of scientific (他的神经科学研究存在“多重问题”，并且“低于科学……的标准)”可知，斯坦福大学的校长因他的神经科学研究存在“多个问题”且“低于科学严谨性的惯常标准”而辞职。由于研究存在问题且未达到标准，这里的“rigor”意味着在科学研究中高水平的严格性和精确性。故划线词意思是“严格、精确”。故选C。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“However, nearly a century passed between biochemist Friedrich Miescher’s identification of the DNA molecule and suggestion that it might be involved in inheritance (遗传) and the clarification of its double-helix (双螺旋) structure in the 1950s. And it took just about half a century for geologists and geophysicists to accept Alfred Wegener’s idea of continental drift (漂移). (然而，从生物化学家弗里德里希·米歇尔鉴定出DNA分子并提出它可能与遗传有关，到20世纪50年代对其双螺旋结构的澄清，已经过去了近一个世纪。地质学家和地球物理学家仅仅用了半个世纪的时间就接受了阿尔弗雷德·韦格纳的大陆漂移学说。)”可知，DNA和大陆漂移就是证明好的科学需要时间的例子。故选A。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“There’s plenty of circumstantial evidence that scientists and other scholars are pushing results out far faster than they used to. (有大量的间接证据表明，科学家和其他学者推出结果的速度比过去快得多。)”以及“Another study found 265 academic authors — two thirds of whom were in the medical and life sciences — published a paper every five days on average. The numbers suggest that the research world has prioritized quantity over quality. Researchers may need to slow down — not speed up — if we are to produce knowledge worthy of trust. (另一项研究发现，265位学术作者——其中三分之二在医学和生命科学领域——平均每五天发表一篇论文。这些数字表明，研究界更看重数量而不是质量。如果我们要产生值得信任的知识，研究人员可能需要放慢速度，而不是加快速度。)”可知，“学者发表了一篇数据有限的论文以获得认可”最能反映作者的担忧。故选D。 【34题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“A theme at this year’s World Economic Forum (WEF) meeting was the perceived need to “accelerate breakthroughs in research and technology.” Some of this discussion was motivated by the climate emergency, some by the opportunities and challenges presented by generative artificial intelligence. Yet in various conversations, it seemed to be taken for granted that to address the world’s problems, scientific research needs to move faster. (今年世界经济论坛会议的一个主题是人们认为有必要“加速研究和技术的突破”。其中一些框架是由气候紧急情况推动的，另一些是由可生成人工智能带来的机遇和挑战推动的。然而，在各种对话中，人们似乎理所当然地认为，要解决世界上的问题，科学研究需要加快步伐。)”结合文章主要说明了如今科学研究存在急于发表论文，过于注重数量导致了很多问题。可知，A选项“快速科学的危险”最符合文章标题。故选A。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的七个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。 In our fast-paced, technology-driven world, the act of eating has transformed from a mindful practice to an often hurried and distracted (分心的) activity. Distracted eating, characterized by consuming food while engaging in other activities such as watching television, scrolling through smartphones, or working at a desk, is becoming increasingly widespread. ____35____ The common presence of digital devices and the constant demands of modern life have contributed to the rise of distracted eating. ____36____ For instance, office workers frequently eat lunch while replying to emails, and students snack during online classes. This behavior is not limited to any specific age group. Distracted eating has several negative effects on physical and mental health. When attention is divided between eating and another activity, it becomes challenging to recognize signals of being full. ____37____ Studies have shown a correlation between distracted eating and an increased intake of calories, contributing to weight gain and obesity. Eating while distracted can impair digestion. The body needs to be in a relaxed state for proper digestion, but multitasking can create a state of mild stress, affecting the digestive process. This can lead to discomfort, bloating, and other gastrointestinal issues. ____38____ This reduces the overall nutritional quality of the diet, impacting long-term health. The practice of mindful eating, which involves paying full attention to the experience of eating, has been linked to improved mental health outcomes. In contrast, distracted eating can contribute to stress and anxiety, as it reduces the enjoyment and satisfaction of meals. ____39____ Creating specific areas for eating, free from digital devices and work related materials helps to establish a clear boundary between mealtime and other activities. Establishing and following regular meal times can reduce the temptation to cat while multitasking. This encourages a more structured approach to eating. Engage in mindful eating by focusing on the sensory experience of food — its taste, texture, and aroma. This can enhance the enjoyment of meals and improve satiety recognition. As awareness of the issue grows, it is hoped that more people will recognize the benefits of mindful eating and make conscious (自觉的) efforts to enjoy their meals fully and healthily. A. Addressing distracted eating requires conscious effort and lifestyle changes. B. Over time, this habit may weaken the brain’s ability to associate food with satisfaction. C. Eating in response to boredom, rather than genuine hunger, is a frequent consequence of such behavior. D. This shift in eating habits has significant consequences for our health and well-being. E. This can lead to overeating, as individuals are less aware of how much they have consumed. F. People are multitasking more than ever, trying to maximize productivity by combining meal times with other activities. G. Distracted eaters may make poorer food choices, choosing convenience foods that are often high in sugar, fat, and salt. 【答案】35. D 36. F 37. E 38. G 39.

Establishing and following regular meal times can reduce the temptation to cat while multitasking. This encourages a more structured approach to eating. Engage in mindful eating by focusing on the sensory experience of food — its taste, texture, and aroma. This can enhance the enjoyment of meals and improve satiety recognition. (创建特定的用餐区域，远离电子设备和与工作相关的材料，有助于在用餐时间和其他活动之间建立清晰的界限。建立并遵循规律的用餐时间可以减少在一心多用时吃猫的诱惑。这鼓励了一种更有条理的饮食方式。专注于食物的感官体验——它的味道、质地和香气，从而专心进食。这样可以增加用餐的乐趣，提高饱腹感。)”可知，下文提到创造特定的进食区域，建立和遵循规律的用餐时间等改变生活方式的措施来解决分心进食的问题。故A选项“解决进食分心问题需要有意识的努力和生活方式的改变。”符合语境，故选A。 第三部分：书面表达（共两节，32分） 第一节（共4小题；第40、41题各2分，第42题3分，第43题5分，共12分） 阅读下面短文，根据题目要求用英文回答问题。请在答题卡指定区域作答。 If you listen to some self-improvement lectures about success, you’ll hear a familiar saying: Hustle (忙碌) harder. It sounds like success is just a matter of willpower and that the life of your dreams is within reach. Many young people are buying into this mindset, spending every waking hour working toward ambitious goals, only to find themselves worn out and unfulfilled. Hustle culture promises success, but it often leads to burnout and disappointment. The truth is that success and fulfillment don’t come from constant struggle. They come from something deeper and more sustainable: persistence (坚持). Hustle culture praises big goals. But what the experts won’t tell you is that most of those goals require a mix of timing, luck, and sometimes even genetics. No matter how hard you hustle, success isn’t always within your control. Persistence culture, on the other hand, takes a different approach. Instead of focusing on massive, high-risk goals, it emphasizes consistent effort over time. It encourages growth, learning, and steady improvement—factors that are within your control. Hustle culture focuses on goals, ignoring the process. It tells you to chase success at all costs, even if that means doing things you hate along the way. For example, you love podcasting (制作播客). You enjoy the connection with your audience. But if you follow hustle culture, your focus shifts to profit, audience growth, and social media engagement. To “succeed,” you have to learn marketing strategies that you don’t actually enjoy. Persistence culture, in contrast, prioritizes the process itself. It asks: Do you enjoy what you’re doing? When you love the process, you don’t need external approval to keep going. Success becomes a byproduct of consistency and passion. Instead of measuring success by external factors, it asks: How can I improve? Maybe your podcast isn’t getting millions of downloads, but are you becoming a better interviewer? Are you developing new skills? These are the measures that matter because they’re within your control. 40. How do many young people feel after following the “hustle harder” mindset? ________________________________________________________ 41. Where do success and fulfillment come from? ________________________________________________________ 42. Please decide which part is false in the following statement, then underline it and explain why. > Hustle culture focuses on massive high-risk goals, measures success by external factors and prioritizes the process. ________________________________________________________ 43. How are you going to put “Persistence Culture” into practice in your daily life? (In about 40 words) ________________________________________________________ 【答案】40. They feel worn out and unfulfilled. 41. They come from something deeper and more sustainable: persistence. 42. Hustle culture focuses on massive, high-risk goals, measures success by external factors and prioritizes the process. According to the passage, hustle culture ignores the process instead of prioritizing the process itself. 43. I’ll prioritize consistent effort over grand goals. For instance, in podcasting, I’ll focus on improving interviewing skills and storytelling daily rather than chasing downloads. By valuing small, measurable progress and passion, I’ll build sustainable growth without burnout. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要对比了“忙碌文化”和“坚持文化”对成功的影响。 【40题详解】 考查细节理解。由文章第一段中“Many young people are buying into this mindset, spending every waking hour working toward ambitious goals, only to find themselves worn out and unfulfilled. (许多年轻人接受了这种心态，把醒着的每一个小时都花在朝着雄心勃勃的目标努力上，结果却发现自己疲惫不堪、毫无成就感。)”可知，许多年轻人在遵循“更努力地忙碌”的心态后，感觉疲惫不堪且毫无成就感。故答案为：They feel worn out and unfulfilled. 【41题详解】 考查细节理解。由文章第二段中“The truth is that success and fulfillment don’t come from constant struggle. They come from something deeper and more sustainable: persistence (坚持). (事实是，成功和成就感并非来自持续的挣扎。它们来自更深层次、更可持续的东西：坚持。)”可知，成功和成就感来自更深层次、更可持续的东西——坚持。故答案为：They come from something deeper and more sustainable: persistence. 【42题详解】 考查细节理解。由文章第四段中“Hustle culture focuses on goals, ignoring the process. (忙碌文化关注目标，忽视过程。)”以及第五段中“Persistence culture, in contrast, prioritizes the process itself. (相比之下，坚持文化将过程本身置于首位。)”可知，“Hustle culture focuses on massive, high-risk goals, measures success by external factors and prioritizes the process.”这句话中“prioritizes the process”部分错误。忙碌文化忽视过程，而不是将过程置于首位。故答案为：Hustle culture focuses on massive, high-risk goals, measures success by external factors and prioritizes the process. According to the passage, hustle culture ignores the process instead of prioritizing the process itself. 【43题详解】 开放性题目，此题要求回答：你打算如何在日常生活中实践“坚持文化”？答案不唯一，合理即可。例如：我会优先考虑持续努力，而非追求宏大目标。例如，在制作播客时，我会专注于每天提升采访技巧和讲故事的能力，而不是一味追求下载量。通过重视微小且可衡量的进步以及保持热情，我将实现可持续的成长，同时避免过度劳累。故答案为：I’ll prioritize consistent effort over grand goals. For instance, in podcasting, I’ll focus on improving interviewing skills and storytelling daily rather than chasing downloads. By valuing small, measurable progress and passion, I’ll build sustainable growth without burnout. 第二节 （20分） 44. 假设你是红星中学高三学生李华。你校校报英语专栏在举办“我最难忘的一节课（My Most Unforgettable Class）”征文比赛。请你用英文投稿，内容包括： 1.介绍这节课： 2.说明最难忘的原因。 注意：词数100左右 My Most Unforgettable Class ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 My Most Unforgettable Class The most unforgettable class I’ve ever attended was an English class focusing on the concept of EQ. Rather than mere instruction, our teacher presented a real-life conflict between two students, born from careless words and actions. In class, she first let us identify their low-EQ behavior. After that, she challenged us to craft solutions rooted in empathy. Finally, she wrapped up the class with universal truths for navigating such conflicts — lessons extending far beyond the classroom. What makes this class unforgettable is not just its engaging case study, but the profound truth it uncovered: To show empathy for others and manage our own emotions is to cultivate harmony within and without. This realization, simple yet timeless, will serve me well for the rest of my life. 【解析】 【导语】本篇书面表达属于应用文。要求考生以李华的身份，写一篇征文投稿，介绍最难忘的一节课及其难忘原因。 【详解】1.词汇积累 集中注意力于：focus on → concentrating on 仅仅：mere → only 呈现，展示：present → show 揭示：uncovered → reveal 2.句式拓展 同义句转换 原句：  The most unforgettable class I’ve ever attended was an English class focusing on the concept of EQ. 拓展句： The most unforgettable class I’ve ever attended was an English class which focused on the concept of EQ. 【点睛】【高分句型1】 The most unforgettable class I’ve ever attended was an English class focusing on the concept of EQ.（运用了现在分词短语focusing on the concept of EQ作定语） 【高分句型2】What makes this class unforgettable is not just its engaging case study, but the profound truth it uncovered: To show empathy for others and manage our own emotions is to cultivate harmony within and without.（运用了What引导的主语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
