B
I entered the University of Puerto Rico-Rio Piedras as a biology major and focused on my first-year coursework, aspiring to become a forensic pathologist (法医病理学家) and help give a voice to those who could no longer speak. Research wasn’t on my radar, partly because such opportunities in Puerto Rico were limited.
Everything changed when Hurricane Maria struck Puerto Rico the following year. I felt oddly optimistic before the storm — thinking we’d get a few days off and life would go on. However, the Category 5 monster destroyed our communities, leaving people without power or water for months. Days passed before we could reconnect with loved ones. An email came two weeks after the hurricane and my honors program offered me temporary studies at Brown University — a school I’d never heard of — while our university was recovering. Though I was guilty about leaving amid the island’s crisis, my family encouraged me to go.
Brown set us up with classes, books, dorm rooms, and funds to purchase winter clothes. It was an introductory biology course that changed my career vision. Fascinated by the professor’s lecture, I hesitantly approached him after class. To my surprise, he immediately offered me a research position in his lab. The research opened my eyes to the important work scientists were doing to address urgent, relevant issues.
I began to see a path in science beyond medicine. In a summer research program, I fell in love with microbiology. Yet doubts and guilt haunted me: how could I abandon medicine and Puerto Rico? My mentor’s words cut through the uncertainty: “There’s nothing better than doing what excites you.”
Three years later, I returned to Brown as a Ph.D. student. Fittingly, my first weekend back brought a hurricane to Rhode Island. It felt oddly like home. Now in my fourth year, I understand crises can redirect us toward meaningful growth. Leaving medicine for research wasn’t failure, but finding where I could contribute most passionately.
24. Why wasn’t the author initially interested in research?
A. She disliked scientific work. B. She wanted to speak for the dead.
C. She had limited access to research. D. She found her coursework challenging.
25. What can we learn from the second paragraph?
A. The hurricane turned out much severer than expected.
B. The author’s family discouraged her from leaving Puerto Rico.
C. Power and water were restored within two weeks after the storm.
D. The author was offered permanent studies at an unfamiliar university.
26. What can we infer about the author’s experience at Brown?
A. She got scholarships provided by Brown University.
B. She found her passion through a research opportunity.
C. She regretted leaving Puerto Rico despite better facilities.
D. She stuck to her original career goal in forensic pathology.
27. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. Studying Abroad: Challenges and Opportunities
B. A Hurricane’s Destruction: Losing Home and Hope
C. Finding Purpose Through Crisis: My Unexpected Path
D. From Medicine to Microbiology: A Scientist’s Journey
【答案】24. C 25. A 26. B 27. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者原本立志成为法医病理学家,飓风玛丽亚袭击波多黎各后,她到布朗大学学习,在那里通过科研机会找到了新的职业方向。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“Research wasn’t on my radar, partly because such opportunities in Puerto Rico were limited.(研究不在我的考虑范围内,部分原因是在波多黎各这样的机会有限)”可知,作者最初对研究不感兴趣是因为她获得研究机会的途径有限。故选C项。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“I felt oddly optimistic before the storm — thinking we’d get a few days off and life would go on. However, the Category 5 monster destroyed our communities, leaving people without power or water for months.(风暴来临前我莫名地乐观——以为我们能放几天假,生活还会继续。然而,这场五级飓风摧毁了我们的社区,让人们几个月都没有水电供应)”可知,飓风的破坏力比作者预期的要严重得多。故选A项。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“Fascinated by the professor’s lecture, I hesitantly approached him after class. To my surprise, he immediately offered me a research position in his lab. The research opened my eyes to the important work scientists were doing to address urgent, relevant issues.(我被教授的讲座深深吸引,下课后我犹豫地走向他。令我惊讶的是,他立刻给了我一个在他实验室做研究的职位。这项研究让我了解到科学家们为解决紧迫相关问题所做的重要工作)”以及第四段中“I began to see a path in science beyond medicine. In a summer research program, I fell in love with microbiology.(我开始看到医学之外的科学道路。在一个暑期研究项目中,我爱上了微生物学)”可推断,作者在布朗大学通过一个科研机会找到了自己的热爱所在。故选B项。
【27题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段“Everything changed when Hurricane Maria struck Puerto Rico the following year.(第二年,当飓风玛丽亚袭击波多黎各时,一切都改变了)”可知危机事件的发生改变了作者的生活轨迹。再结合最后一段“Now in my fourth year, I understand crises can redirect us toward meaningful growth. Leaving medicine for research wasn’t failure, but finding where I could contribute most passionately.(现在我读四年级了,我明白危机可以引导我们走向有意义的成长。从医学转向研究不是失败,而是找到了我最能投入热情做出贡献的领域)”可知,作者通过这次危机找到了新的目标和方向。所以C选项“Finding Purpose Through Crisis: My Unexpected Path(在危机中找到目标:我意想不到的道路)”能准确概括文章主旨,是文章最佳标题。故选C项。
C
At first glance, the relationship between robots and environmental sustainability may not be obvious. The present situation is that the generation of electricity largely relies on unsustainable energy sources and that manufacturing sensors and electronic boards requires the extraction of rare earth materials. Nevertheless, robots also have the potential to help contribute to sustainability goals. Current research on this topic follows two main paths: creating robots that facilitate a more sustainable use of resources and creating robots that are themselves more sustainable.
There is reason to hope that robots can help us use resources more efficiently, particularly by addressing labor shortages and skill gaps in certain critical fields. Drones, for instance, can be used to scan a site after destruction to identify waste and reusable materials and sort out debris (碎片). Robots may also ease the automatization of battery recycling, which requires operation of dangerous components.
Another path roboticists are pursuing is to reconsider the design of traditional metal-based, electricity-hungry robots. Biodegradable sensors or robots made of edible (可食用的) materials are potentially interesting solutions to robotic waste. Additionally, ensuring that the same robot can be used for decades is another way to achieve more sustainable consumption and production of robotics. This requires robots to be easily repurposed.
As robots are used outdoors, they will unavoidably sustain damage. Robots that can self-heal or recover function, even with a broken limb, will stand better chances. Both hardware and software will likewise need to be transferable and reusable to reduce disuse and enable the integration of new sensing technologies.
Despite tremendous innovation in sustainable robotic designs, it may take more time than we have for the prototypes (原型) discussed above to become commercially available products. A major challenge is weighing their “grey energy” (the energy to build robots) against environmental benefits. For example, using robots to install solar panels shouldn’t require more resources than the energy savings the panels ultimately provide. As AI integration accelerates, finding the right balance between technology progress and environmental responsibility remains urgent but achievable.
28. What do we know about the current production of robots?
A. It makes use of recyclable components.
B. It aims to use renewable energy and reduce costs.
C. It relies on non-renewable resources and rare materials.
D It focuses on resource-efficient and self-sustainable robots.
29. Why is battery recycling mentioned?
A. To criticize traditional recycling methods.
B. To compare robots’ efficiency with human labor.
C. To highlight the complexity of recycling process.
D. To emphasize robots' ability to handle risky tasks.
30. What strategy is proposed according to Paragraph 3 and Paragraph 4?

We often chase a specific number on the scale, believing it guarantees both attractiveness and health. Formulas — like BMI and BRI — for determining an ideal weight range can easily be found online. They claim to calculate this ideal weight, yet experts warn they’re imperfect tools.
BMI, the long-standing standard, equals weight divided by height squared to categorize individuals into weight classes. To calculate BMI, you plug in your height and weight, and then a formula spits out a number that falls on a scale from underweight to healthy to overweight to obese. “It can be useful in a doctor’s office as screening tools to help evaluate health risks,” says Yoni Freedhoff, an associate professor of family medicine at the University of Ottawa. However, the chart lists the same healthy (or unhealthy) weight range for men and women, and for older and younger adults. Dr. Jay, a health researcher, points out its flaws, “BMI disregards critical differences in muscle mass, bone density, and age.” For instance, athletes with high muscle may be mislabeled as overweight, while elderly individuals losing muscle might appear “healthy” in spite of hidden risks.
A newer metric (衡量标准), BRI, shifts focus to waist circumference, targeting abdominal (腹部的) fat. The thinking behind this chart is that where you accumulate fat can be even more important than how much you weigh. Excess fat surrounds the abdominal organs, leading to a higher risk of heart disease and other conditions. Yet Dr. Jay cautions, “I wouldn’t use this chart to supply a number of what someone should weigh. BRI overlooks fat composition and medical conditions affecting the belly size.”
Neither tool takes account of blood pressure, sleep quality, or existing illnesses - factors vital to true health assessment. For those with weight-related conditions like diabetes, doctors prioritize percentage-based improvements over pounds. Dr. Freedhoff emphasizes sustainability, “The best weight isn’t a fixed target but what your body maintains through balanced eating and exercise.” Modern medicine offers solutions when lifestyle changes fall short, but being crazy about numbers often backfires. Ultimately, overall well-being — measured by energy, vitality, and medical markers -proves far more meaningful than chasing arbitrary (武断的) digits on the scale.
32. What can be learned about BMI from Paragraph 2?
A. It involves muscle mass, bone density and age.
B. Doctors can employ it to make health risk assessments.
C. It is calculated by dividing a person's weight by his height.
D. Doctors consider it a perfect tool for personal weight goals.
33. What does Dr. Jay most likely think about BRI?
A. It places greater emphasis on weight.
B. It focuses on the fat throughout the body.
C. It completely solves the limitation of BMI.
D. It isn’t worth recommending for it ignores fat composition.
34. What does the underlined word “backfires” in Paragraph 4 mean?
A. Causes negative consequences. B. Proves existing perspectives.
C. Results from pessimistic factors. D. Achieves an desirable outcome.
35. What is the main idea of the article?
A. Abdominal fat is a critical factor in diagnosing disease risk.
B. BMI and BRI are revolutionary tools for health assessment.
C. Comprehensive well-being should outweigh numerical weight goals.
D. Modern medicine can fully replace lifestyles in weight management.
【答案】32. B 33. D 34. A 35. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍 BMI 和 BRI 的缺陷,强调整体健康比体重数字更重要。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“It can be useful in a doctor’s office as screening tools to help evaluate health risks(在医生的办公室里,它可以作为帮助评估健康风险的筛查工具)”可知,BMI可作为医生办公室的筛查工具评估健康风险。故选B。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“Yet Dr. Jay cautions, “I wouldn’t use this chart to supply a number of what someone should weigh. BRI overlooks fat composition and medical conditions affecting the belly size.”(然而,杰伊博士警告说:“我不会用这张图表来提供一个人应该体重的数字。BRI忽略了影响腹部大小的脂肪成分和医疗条件。”)”可知,Dr. Jay 指出BRI忽略脂肪构成和影响腰围的医学状况,暗示其不值得推荐。故选D。
【34题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线单词前的“Neither tool takes account of blood pressure, sleep quality, or existing illnesses — factors vital to true health assessment. For those with weight-related conditions like diabetes, doctors prioritize percentage-based improvements over pounds.(这两种工具都没有考虑到血压、睡眠质量或现有疾病——这些对真正的健康评估至关重要的因素。对于那些患有糖尿病等与体重有关的疾病的人,医生优先考虑的是基于百分比的改善,而不是体重)”提到盲目追求体重数值的弊端(如忽略整体健康),以及划线单词后的“Ultimately, overall well-being — measured by energy, vitality, and medical markers -proves far more meaningful than chasing arbitrary (武断的) digits on the scale.(最终,整体幸福感——以能量、活力和医疗指标来衡量——被证明比追求体重秤上任意的数字更有意义)”强调应关注幸福感,可推知,盲目追求体重数值会产生反效果,应该关注幸福感,所以划线单词“backfire”指“产生反效果”与A项“导致负面后果”意义相近。故选A。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段“Ultimately, overall well-being — measured by energy, vitality, and medical markers -proves far more meaningful than chasing arbitrary (武断的) digits on the scale.(最终,整体幸福感——以能量、活力和医疗指标来衡量——被证明比追求体重秤上任意的数字更有意义)”以及文章批判性分析两种体重评估标准(BMI和BRI)的局限性,强调健康需多维度评估,可知作者认为整体幸福感比体重数值更重要。故选C。

阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Do you ever feel as though you have an impossible amount of work to do? Do you find it hard to focus on tasks or do you delay starting them? Worse still, have you ever missed a deadline? If so, you are not alone. Poor time management leads to stress and inefficiency. ____36____
Start by writing down all the tasks that need doing. If they are long, complicated projects, try to break them down into smaller, more manageable parts that you can complete in less than two hours. ____37____ Consider the importance of a task and then factor in the urgency to help you decide if and when you need to take action.
Most jobs involve regular tasks as well as temporary projects and unplanned emergencies. ____38____ Once you’ve established these blocks of time, you could try using the Pomodoro method (番茄工作法). It suggests working in 25-minute focused intervals followed by 5-minute breaks. After four back-to-back sessions, you should take a longer break.
If you are being constantly disturbed by colleagues or phone calls, and find it difficult to stay focused on the task at hand, keep a record of the type and duration of the disturbance. ____39____ Work out a way of signalling that you should only be interrupted for urgent and important issues, whether it’s a sign on your desk or door, or even closing the door to your office. By extension, use voicemail to manage calls and turn off social media notifications.
____40____ Therefore, you might need to experiment with these to find a helpful method. Once you have the right systems in place, you should be able to work smarter and lower your stress levels.
A. Then you can talk to your colleagues and agree some rules.
B. Certain techniques work better for some people than others.
C. Once you have your list, it is time to prioritise crucial tasks.
D. Physical exercise can significantly improve concentration levels.
E. One way to fit in these different responsibilities is to create a schedule.
F. Many people find it helps to work on their list at the end of a working day.
G. Fortunately, some simple time-management skills can transform chaos into order.

【答案】Dear Michael,
Knowing you are interested in Tang Poetry, I’m writing to give a brief introduction.
The Tang Dynasty, a high point of classical Chinese poetry, saw the emergence of many distinguished poets, among whom Li Bai and Du Fu gain the most popularity. Widely known as a genius and often called the “Immortal Poet”, Li Bai wrote with a romantic style and his poems mostly celebrated friendship, nature, and wine. Du Fu is also noted as one of the greatest Chinese poets. He has been called the “Poet-Sage” by Chinese critics, with his most famous poems reflecting on the effects of war on the people.
Hope the information above is helpful and wish you success in Chinese learning!
Yours,
Li Hua

67. 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。
The whole class burst out laughing as Mohi rushed into the classroom. He was a strange sight. His half-buttoned white shirt revealed a red-striped pyjama top (睡衣上装) underneath, and instead of white school shoes, he wore a pair of bright green sandals (凉鞋) that were twice the size of his feet. The physics teacher’s hand froze in the middle of writing a formula on the blackboard.
Mohi said in a low voice “Sorry, teacher,” and ran hurriedly to his seat. Mr. Tan glared at the rest of the students. The laughter quickly died down. Mohi’s classmates always looked forward to Mondays. They would be entertained by Mohi’s late arrival, odd appearance, and inappropriate clothing.
Mohi lived just a street away from the school. He walked to school every day. Students passing by on the bus would yell his name together just to see him jump and stop in his tracks. When he spotted the merry bunch on the bus, he would wave with a friendly smile. Although Mohi was kind, he was too lost in his own thoughts to make friends. His classmates found him amusing but they ignored him most of the time. Only Hamed, who sat beside Mohi, tried to be his friend.
The following Monday, Mohi did not turn up at school. His classmates were a little disappointed, but they quickly forgot about him. After school, Hamed decided to walk to Mohi’s house to check on him. As he approached the gate, he could hear violin music. “Mohi must be listening to music,” he thought. The gate was not locked. Hamed let himself in. He called Mohi’s name a few times but there was no response. The music played on. Hamed looked in through a window. His eyes widened in surprise. In the middle of the living room, Mohi was playing the violin. His eyes were closed in concentration as he skillfully drew the bow over the strings. He played so perfectly that it sounded like a recording. Hamed left quietly. When Teachers’ Day came around, Hamed had a plan.
注意:
1. 所续写短文的词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
It was the school’s tradition to have a concert for the teachers.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Mohi became a hit and had many fans at his school.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
It was the school’s tradition to have a concert for the teachers. Having seen Mohi’s excellent violin skills, Hamed encouraged Mohi to have a try. Mohi hesitated. However, seeing Hamed’s determined look, he decided to perform. The whole class was skeptical when Hamed recommended Mohi. But they finally agreed, considering the shortage of performers. On the day of the concert, as Mohi started to play, the entire auditorium fell into silence. The sweet and melodious sound of Mohi’s violin filled the air, fascinating all who heard it. When the last note ended, the audience burst into thunderous applause.
Mohi became a hit and had many fans at his school. His classmates no longer laughed at his funny appearance. Instead, they began admiring him for his incredible talent and devotion to music. Mohi’s hidden gift was revealed and he was accepted by his peers, who now saw him in a new light. Without doubt, Mohi was heartily grateful for Hamed’s encouragement and admiration, and they have been friends ever since. Beautiful things exist in every corner of our lives, and what we should do is look beyond the appearance and discover those gleaming qualities.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索,讲述了Mohi如何在学校被接纳为线索展开,讲述了Mohi是个总因迟到和怪异穿着被同学嘲笑的男孩,只有Hamed愿意接近他。某天Mohi缺席,Hamed去他家时意外发现他竟是小提琴天才。在Hamed的鼓励下,Mohi参加了学校的音乐会,用琴声征服了所有人。从此,同学们不再嘲笑他,转而敬佩他的才华。
【详解】1. 段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“为老师们举办音乐会是学校的传统。”可知,第一段可描写Hamed鼓励Mohi参加音乐会,犹豫后Mohi同意了,音乐会那天Mohi的琴声感染了观众。
②由第二段首句内容“Mohi成为了一个热门人物,在他的学校里有很多粉丝。”可知,第二段可描写同学们变得非常钦佩Mohi,接纳了他,Mohi也和Hamed成为了好朋友,以及这个故事教导我们学会善于发现他人隐藏的闪耀品质。
2. 续写线索:音乐会——Hamed鼓励Mohi参加音乐会——Mohi表现出众——Mohi成为热门人物——同学们接纳Mohi——故事的感悟

I entered the University of Puerto Rico-Rio Piedras as a biology major and focused on my first-year coursework, aspiring to become a forensic pathologist (法医病理学家) and help give a voice to those who could no longer speak. Research wasn’t on my radar, partly because such opportunities in Puerto Rico were limited.
Everything changed when Hurricane Maria struck Puerto Rico the following year. I felt oddly optimistic before the storm — thinking we’d get a few days off and life would go on. However, the Category 5 monster destroyed our communities, leaving people without power or water for months. Days passed before we could reconnect with loved ones. An email came two weeks after the hurricane and my honors program offered me temporary studies at Brown University — a school I’d never heard of — while our university was recovering. Though I was guilty about leaving amid the island’s crisis, my family encouraged me to go.
Brown set us up with classes, books, dorm rooms, and funds to purchase winter clothes. It was an introductory biology course that changed my career vision. Fascinated by the professor’s lecture, I hesitantly approached him after class. To my surprise, he immediately offered me a research position in his lab. The research opened my eyes to the important work scientists were doing to address urgent, relevant issues.
I began to see a path in science beyond medicine. In a summer research program, I fell in love with microbiology. Yet doubts and guilt haunted me: how could I abandon medicine and Puerto Rico? My mentor’s words cut through the uncertainty: “There’s nothing better than doing what excites you.”
Three years later, I returned to Brown as a Ph.D. student. Fittingly, my first weekend back brought a hurricane to Rhode Island. It felt oddly like home. Now in my fourth year, I understand crises can redirect us toward meaningful growth. Leaving medicine for research wasn’t failure, but finding where I could contribute most passionately.
24. Why wasn’t the author initially interested in research?
A. She disliked scientific work. B. She wanted to speak for the dead.
C. She had limited access to research. D. She found her coursework challenging.
25. What can we learn from the second paragraph?
A. The hurricane turned out much severer than expected.
B. The author’s family discouraged her from leaving Puerto Rico.
C. Power and water were restored within two weeks after the storm.
D. The author was offered permanent studies at an unfamiliar university.
26. What can we infer about the author’s experience at Brown?
A. She got scholarships provided by Brown University.
B. She found her passion through a research opportunity.
C. She regretted leaving Puerto Rico despite better facilities.
D. She stuck to her original career goal in forensic pathology.
27. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. Studying Abroad: Challenges and Opportunities
B. A Hurricane’s Destruction: Losing Home and Hope
C. Finding Purpose Through Crisis: My Unexpected Path
D. From Medicine to Microbiology: A Scientist’s Journey
C
At first glance, the relationship between robots and environmental sustainability may not be obvious. The present situation is that the generation of electricity largely relies on unsustainable energy sources and that manufacturing sensors and electronic boards requires the extraction of rare earth materials. Nevertheless, robots also have the potential to help contribute to sustainability goals. Current research on this topic follows two main paths: creating robots that facilitate a more sustainable use of resources and creating robots that are themselves more sustainable.
There is reason to hope that robots can help us use resources more efficiently, particularly by addressing labor shortages and skill gaps in certain critical fields. Drones, for instance, can be used to scan a site after destruction to identify waste and reusable materials and sort out debris (碎片). Robots may also ease the automatization of battery recycling, which requires operation of dangerous components.
Another path roboticists are pursuing is to reconsider the design of traditional metal-based, electricity-hungry robots. Biodegradable sensors or robots made of edible (可食用的) materials are potentially interesting solutions to robotic waste. Additionally, ensuring that the same robot can be used for decades is another way to achieve more sustainable consumption and production of robotics. This requires robots to be easily repurposed.
As robots are used outdoors, they will unavoidably sustain damage. Robots that can self-heal or recover function, even with a broken limb, will stand better chances. Both hardware and software will likewise need to be transferable and reusable to reduce disuse and enable the integration of new sensing technologies.
Despite tremendous innovation in sustainable robotic designs, it may take more time than we have for the prototypes (原型) discussed above to become commercially available products. A major challenge is weighing their “grey energy” (the energy to build robots) against environmental benefits. For example, using robots to install solar panels shouldn’t require more resources than the energy savings the panels ultimately provide. As AI integration accelerates, finding the right balance between technology progress and environmental responsibility remains urgent but achievable.
28. What do we know about the current production of robots?
A. It makes use of recyclable components.
B. It aims to use renewable energy and reduce costs.
C. It relies on non-renewable resources and rare materials.
D. It focuses on resource-efficient and self-sustainable robots.
29. Why is battery recycling mentioned?
A. To criticize traditional recycling methods.
B. To compare robots’ efficiency with human labor.
C. To highlight the complexity of recycling process.
D. To emphasize robots' ability to handle risky tasks.
30. What strategy is proposed according to Paragraph 3 and Paragraph 4?
A. Adopting sustainable materials. B. Expanding metal-based designs.
C. Promoting disposable components. D. Avoiding damage to robots outdoors.
31. What does the author think of robots’ environmental potential?
A. Limited by costs. B. Dependent on policies.
C. Unclear in direction. D. Promising despite challenges.
D
We often chase a specific number on the scale, believing it guarantees both attractiveness and health. Formulas — like BMI and BRI — for determining an ideal weight range can easily be found online. They claim to calculate this ideal weight, yet experts warn they’re imperfect tools.
BMI, the long-standing standard, equals weight divided by height squared to categorize individuals into weight classes. To calculate BMI, you plug in your height and weight, and then a formula spits out a number that falls on a scale from underweight to healthy to overweight to obese. “It can be useful in a doctor’s office as screening tools to help evaluate health risks,” says Yoni Freedhoff, an associate professor of family medicine at the University of Ottawa. However, the chart lists the same healthy (or unhealthy) weight range for men and women, and for older and younger adults. Dr. Jay, a health researcher, points out its flaws, “BMI disregards critical differences in muscle mass, bone density, and age.” For instance, athletes with high muscle may be mislabeled as overweight, while elderly individuals losing muscle might appear “healthy” in spite of hidden risks.
A newer metric (衡量标准), BRI, shifts focus to waist circumference, targeting abdominal (腹部的) fat. The thinking behind this chart is that where you accumulate fat can be even more important than how much you weigh. Excess fat surrounds the abdominal organs, leading to a higher risk of heart disease and other conditions. Yet Dr. Jay cautions, “I wouldn’t use this chart to supply a number of what someone should weigh. BRI overlooks fat composition and medical conditions affecting the belly size.”
Neither tool takes account of blood pressure, sleep quality, or existing illnesses - factors vital to true health assessment. For those with weight-related conditions like diabetes, doctors prioritize percentage-based improvements over pounds. Dr. Freedhoff emphasizes sustainability, “The best weight isn’t a fixed target but what your body maintains through balanced eating and exercise.” Modern medicine offers solutions when lifestyle changes fall short, but being crazy about numbers often backfires. Ultimately, overall well-being — measured by energy, vitality, and medical markers -proves far more meaningful than chasing arbitrary (武断的) digits on the scale.
32. What can be learned about BMI from Paragraph 2?
A. It involves muscle mass, bone density and age.
B. Doctors can employ it to make health risk assessments.
C It is calculated by dividing a person's weight by his height.
D. Doctors consider it a perfect tool for personal weight goals.
33. What does Dr. Jay most likely think about BRI?
A. It places greater emphasis on weight.
B. It focuses on the fat throughout the body.
C. It completely solves the limitation of BMI.
D. It isn’t worth recommending for it ignores fat composition.
34. What does the underlined word “backfires” in Paragraph 4 mean?
A. Causes negative consequences. B. Proves existing perspectives.
C. Results from pessimistic factors. D. Achieves an desirable outcome.
35. What is the main idea of the article?
A. Abdominal fat is a critical factor in diagnosing disease risk.
B. BMI and BRI are revolutionary tools for health assessment.
C. Comprehensive well-being should outweigh numerical weight goals.
D. Modern medicine can fully replace lifestyles in weight management.

67. 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。
The whole class burst out laughing as Mohi rushed into the classroom. He was a strange sight. His half-buttoned white shirt revealed a red-striped pyjama top (睡衣上装) underneath, and instead of white school shoes, he wore a pair of bright green sandals (凉鞋) that were twice the size of his feet. The physics teacher’s hand froze in the middle of writing a formula on the blackboard.
Mohi said in a low voice, “Sorry, teacher,” and ran hurriedly to his seat. Mr. Tan glared at the rest of the students. The laughter quickly died down. Mohi’s classmates always looked forward to Mondays. They would be entertained by Mohi’s late arrival, odd appearance, and inappropriate clothing.
Mohi lived just a street away from the school. He walked to school every day. Students passing by on the bus would yell his name together just to see him jump and stop in his tracks. When he spotted the merry bunch on the bus, he would wave with a friendly smile. Although Mohi was kind, he was too lost in his own thoughts to make friends. His classmates found him amusing but they ignored him most of the time. Only Hamed, who sat beside Mohi, tried to be his friend.
The following Monday, Mohi did not turn up at school. His classmates were a little disappointed, but they quickly forgot about him. After school, Hamed decided to walk to Mohi’s house to check on him. As he approached the gate, he could hear violin music. “Mohi must be listening to music,” he thought. The gate was not locked. Hamed let himself in. He called Mohi’s name a few times but there was no response. The music played on. Hamed looked in through a window. His eyes widened in surprise. In the middle of the living room, Mohi was playing the violin. His eyes were closed in concentration as he skillfully drew the bow over the strings. He played so perfectly that it sounded like a recording. Hamed left quietly. When Teachers’ Day came around, Hamed had a plan.
