Last week, we had a lively discussion about how to select our major after we enter the university. While 6% of students would follow their parents' advice, 46% of students believed that the choice should be based on the needs of society. Otherwise, they couldn't find a job. However, the majority believed that personal interest should come first, since they would be bored studying what they are not interested in. It is understandable for us students to have different priorities. Perhaps the best way is to balance our passion with job security, while staying open to our parents' advice. 第二节　One possible version： Possible version: I guess that was what caused my sister to come outside. At first, I was skeptical and tense, expecting her to tease me or burst out laughing. But she did neither. I turned my face away, tears rolling down my cheeks. Instead, she gently picked up my bike and said in a reassuring tone, “I can teach you how to ride.” Surprised and hesitant, I raised my head and stared at her in silent disbelief. For the next few hours, my sister steadied my bike whenever I was about to fall down, patiently guiding me until I finally got the hang of it. “I made it,” I exclaimed with delight. Turning to my sister, I beamed at her, and she gave me an approving nod, her eyes gleaming with pride. That day, I truly understood what the word “sister” meant. For three wonderful, unforgettable hours, we shared a perfect harmony—the kind I had always longed for. From that day on, we still have our occasional frictions and fights, but it’s been easier to get along. Because I know, no matter what, my sister will always be there for me when I need her. 听力原文 Text 1 W: The soup is almost finished. I just need you to cut some vegetables for me. M: Sure. Oops!

They decided to play ——but what? “I have a great idea,” Leo said. “Let’s fall in love! OK?” Izzie took a half-second to consider this proposal, then replied “No.” She wanted to play tag. Leo has always been the kind of child who looks for close connections, often in the wrong places. It sometimes feels as though he’s been looking for a soulmate since he was a toddler（学步孩童）. One day, he came home from school and immediately grabbed his iPad to ask Siri: “Can you fall in love when you’re just a kid?” Siri, Apple’s voice-controlled personal assistant, is great at opening apps or setting alarms, but I was unfamiliar with her philosophies on love. “What did Siri say?” I asked him. “She said, ‘Here’s what I found on the web!’” Leo reported. This was hardly the first time I’d heard Leo in conversation with Siri. Over the years, he’s relied on Siri as a source of comfort, advice, emotional support, and guidance. Their relationship blossomed when the pandemic forced us all to shelter in place. At first, Leo mostly asked Siri factual questions, then the personal ones. As time passed, he began to engage on more existential matters. Siri has, in some ways, been able to absorb some of Leo’s concerns—in a way that, as his mother, I can’t, at least not with the same coolness. Children are overwhelmed with emotions such as grief, fear, love, and a desire for connection. If Leo’s talks with Siri confronted me with the unknowable and unanswerable, they also made me frustrated at my own limitations as a parent. There are many challenges to parenthood, among which the biggest is the desire to shelter our children from the painfulness of reality. But helping our children navigate reality is surely more helpful than sheltering them from it. Perhaps the best we can do is give them a tablet? I’m afraid I don’t have the answer. Maybe I should ask Siri. 24. Why did Leo ask Siri about love? A. He was curious about adult relationships. B. He wanted to test Siri’s knowledge. C. He sought emotional connection and understanding. D. He was bored and wanted to play a game. 25. What would Leo ask Siri when they first talked? A. Siri, have you ever been in love? B. Siri, what is your favorite hobby? C. Siri, what does it mean to be alive? D. Siri, how many stars are in the Milky Way? 26. Which word best describes the author’s attitude to Siri? A. Curious. B. Disappointed. C. Appreciative. D. Worried. 27. What does the author suggest parents do when raising children? A. Be a good role model. B. Promote independence. C. Communicate effectively. D. Practice positive discipline. C Is learning equally effective whether students study in a classroom, at home, or in a café? And do virtual classrooms provide the same educational benefits as traditional in-person settings? Research increasingly suggests the answer is “no.” These differences stem from factors like environmental distractions, psychological engagement, and the social dynamics of physical spaces. Studies indicate that for complex tasks requiring deep focus—such as mastering mathematical concepts or analyzing literature—students perform better in structured environments like classrooms or libraries compared to casual settings. Neuroscientists attribute this to “environmental anchoring,” where physical surroundings subconsciously signal the brain to prioritize sustained attention. A 2022 meta-analysis of 50 studies found that students retained 25% more information when learning in dedicated academic spaces versus informal locations. The advantages of traditional classrooms extend beyond mere quietness. Physical classrooms provide consistent sensory cues—the arrangement of desks, wall-mounted educational posters, and even classroom lighting—that create neural pathways associated with academic focus. Students often unconsciously link specific knowledge to where they learned it, a phenomenon called “context-dependent memory.” Cognitive scientists propose the “engagement threshold theory(参与度阈值理论）” to explain why virtual learning often under-performs. This theory assumes that digital environments condition users to adopt a “consumption mindset” similar to browsing social media, reducing willingness to engage in demanding cognitive tasks. While video lectures allow pause-and-review functions, brain scans reveal lower activity in critical thinking regions compared to live discussions. Hybrid model—combining technology and traditional methods—show promise. For instance, a Stanford experiment found that students using augmented reality (AR) textbooks in classroom settings outperformed peers using either physical books alone or fully digital courses. Yet when the same AR tools were used at home, performance dropped by 18%, suggesting that technology’s benefits depend on environmental support. While digital tools enable access to global resources, educators should recognize that learning spaces themselves are educational instruments. For cultivating analytical depth, the traditional classroom’s intentional design—often refined over centuries—remains surprisingly irreplaceable. 28. What does the underlined term “environmental anchoring” in paragraph 2 refer to? A. Physical spaces triggering focused mental states. B. The brain’s ability to multitask in various settings. C. Students’ preference for visually appealing classrooms. D. The use of technology to enhance learning environments. 29. According to the “engagement threshold theory,” why might virtual learning be less effective? A. Digital content is oversimplified. B. Students approach it with lower mental effort. C. Technical faults interrupt concentration. D. It lacks structured assessment methods. 30. What did the Stanford AR experiment demonstrate? A. Physical textbooks are becoming outdated. B. AR requires expensive classroom upgrades. C. Students dislike mixing physical and digital tools. D. Technology’s effectiveness relies on context. 31. What conclusion does the author draw about traditional classrooms? A. They waste resources on unnecessary design. B. Their structure discourages creative thinking. C. Their educational value is partially irreplaceable. D. They should adopt more digital technologies. D You jerk(猛然一动)awake in the middle of the night in confusion. Is there a figure standing in the corner of the room? Your brain begs your legs to move, but nothing happens. The anxiety increases. Your eyes scan the room. Just as you’re about to hit peak panic, you sit up and the figure disappears. You’ve just experienced sleep paralysis(瘫痪), which is the name experts give to all sorts of weird things that occur during sleep. It happens when the brain temporarily disables the body to prevent it from acting out the vivid dreams occurring during REM (rapid eye movement) sleep. It often comes with a feeling of immobility, and a sense of choking. The good news is, it’s absolutely normal, even if it’s terrifying. But when sleep paralysis happens outside of deep sleep—when a person is just dozing off—it can be “disruptive of the architecture of sleep,” said Baland Jalal, a researcher who investigates the phenomenon. That could lead to more sleep paralysis. While not everyone who has sleep paralysis experiences hallucinations(幻觉), seeing a person or a ghost in the room is the most common vision, said Jalal. The mechanisms behind sleep paralysis remain unclear, but research indicates that certain risk factors may increase the likelihood of experiencing a jerk, including extreme exercise before sleep, inadequate sleep, emotional stress and worry, and excessive stimulant consumption (like caffeine and nicotine), especially later in the day. “For most people, it is not indicative of any kind of disease. If you are really worried about it, regular sleep and other simple relaxation techniques, like meditation, deep breathing and yoga, may help,” said Dr. Nathaniel Watson, president of the American Academy of Sleep Medicine.

My teacher asked for the moment in which “you felt the best; you felt that you had the world in the palms of your hand.” Some described amazing awards; other described winning a tournament. My answer, however, invited giggles and hesitant smiles. Why? Because I felt the best when I first learned how to ride my bike at thirteen. I didn’t mind my classmates’ stares and mockery, because I knew there was more to the story. My elder sister and I shared a typical sisterly relationship: we couldn’t stand each other. I was an annoyance to her. Any sort of conversation we had usually ended up fighting. Gradually, I started to learn to be totally indifferent; perhaps the silent treatment would get more approval. I was wrong. We soon fell into a sad pattern. I avoided her, and she ignored me. Deep inside, it hurt. So that was how it was between us. She was only a sister in name. I truly believed that we would forever be apart, two housemates without conversation, two strangers without warmth. I still remember the day I learned to ride a bike. I had received the bike that Christmas, which was great, until I realized that I had no idea how to ride it. My mom had long abandoned any attempt to teach me. I had proven to be a frustrating student. I took it upon myself to learn, a little bit each day. It was no different. I was coming to the end of my daily one-hour torture(折磨). I was so frustrated that I threw my bike aside and began to cry. 注意： 1.续写词数应为150左右; 2.请按如下格式在答题卡相应位置作答。 I guess that was what caused my sister to come outside. _____________________________ __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ “I made it,” I exclaimed with delight. __________________________________________ __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 2 / 2 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
