My suggestion is to develop an AI system that designs personalized training plans based on students’ fitness levels and tracks their progress through wearable devices. Traditional PE classes often adopt a “one-size-fits-all” approach, which may not suit everyone. AI can analyze individual data to create tailored exercises, ensuring safer and more effective workouts. It also provides instant feedback to correct movements, reducing injury risks. This approach will improve overall fitness and help students build sustainable exercise habits. Let’s embrace AI to make PE smarter and healthier! 读后续写 As he flipped through more photos, Jake’s eyes began to mist. There were pictures of him as a baby, always in his grandmother's arms—smiling, feeding him, helping him take his first steps. He hadn’t remembered any of it, but the photos told a story of love and time shared. His anger from earlier now felt silly. Taking a deep breath, he set the album aside and got to work. He rolled up the old carpet, stacked boxes neatly, and swept the floor, stirring up clouds of dust. Spiderwebs clung to his sleeves, but he didn’t stop. The room slowly changed from a forgotten mess to a clean, welcoming space. As sunlight streamed in, Jake looked around and smiled. Maybe this wasn’t such a bad way to spend a Saturday. Next morning, when his grandmother stepped into her new room, Jake handed her the album. She blinked in surprise, then smiled softly as she ran her fingers over the worn cover. “You found this?” she asked. Jake nodded. “I didn’t know we had so many memories.” They sat together on the edge of the bed, flipping through the pages. She laughed at some photos, explained others, and paused with misty eyes at a few. When they reached the last page, Jake grinned. “Let’s add a new one.” He grabbed his phone, held it out, and the two leaned in close. A fresh photo joined the album—Jake and his grandmother, smiling side by side, ready to continue their story together. 听力文本： 【Text1原文】W: Edward, what do you think of my speech? Is it better than last time? M: Much better. Last time it was exactly ten minutes, and this time it’s five minutes more. However, it needs extending for another five minutes. Just relax on stage and try to slow down your speaking speed. 【Text2原文】M: Karen, what about going to the library to do some reading this afternoon? W: Sorry, John. I've already had plans for this afternoon. Sophia gave me a ticket for the film festival, where some Chinese movies will be shown. And then, I’ll take her to the karaoke in return. 【Text3原文】M: Hello, this is Jerry. Could you tell me where Joan is? I couldn’t get through to her. Did she go to her office? W: No. We ran out of salt and she’s gone out to get some. I’ll tell her to call you back as soon as she comes back home. 【Text4原文】M: Nice sunglasses! You look so cool with those on. W: Thanks, Robert. I brought these back from LA. The sun shines pretty much year round there, so I needed them every day. It was a welcome change from the snow up here in Washington. M: The streets must have been pretty packed, and the food there is very tasty. 【Text5原文】M: Bella, are you happy that you moved to the Administrative Department? W: Well, actually, I regret moving to the department. The repetitive work is boring and the people there aren’t very friendly. M: I’m sorry to hear that. What do you plan to do next? W: Well, I hope the Shipping Department will be willing to take me back. 【Text6】M: Mary, do you know any good second-hand bookstores nearby? W: Yes. I like visiting Westsider Books on the Upper West Side of Manhattan. M: Could you share something about it with me? W: It has floor to ceiling shelves full of rare and used books to browse through. You know, I like collecting rare, out-of-print, first edition, antique and signed books. M: Me, too. So when is the store usually open? W: From 11:00 am to 7:00 pm from Monday to Thursday, from 11:00 am to 9:00 pm on Friday and Saturday, and from 12:00 noon to 6:00 pm on Sunday. Text7原文】W: Mr. Smith, congratulations on passing the final interview. So do you have any questions about the work? M: Yes. Could you please tell me something about the insurance? W: We are completely responsible for the unemployment compensation, but the old-age insurance and the health insurance should be shared between you and us. M: That’s good. I really appreciate your taking the time with me today. I’ve been focused on the study and job in a this field for many years. And now I am extremely excited to have the chance to finally take full advantage of my skills and passion in this role! I’m confident that I’ll be a good fit for the team and look forward to having the opportunity to add real value to the company in a way that furthers our shared values and common goals. 【Text8原文】M: You went on that diving trip, didn’t you? How was it? W: It was hard to say. The diving suit made my skin very uncomfortable. What was worse, three sharks swam up close to me while I was watching the sea plants. M: Terrifying, wasn’t it? W: So it was. As a result, I spent the rest of my holiday out of the water. What about you? Did you take your usual vacation? M: Yes, but I actually fell in love with extreme sports. I went rock climbing every weekend during the two months. W: Had a pretty good time, did you? M: You could say that. And I think the real high spot was the bungee jumping. That was extremely great. W: You’re one of those people who loves heights aren’t you? M: Oh yeah. They don’t bother me at all. I’ll learn surfing next year. W: Maybe I should do that. Anything’s got to be better than swimming with sharks. Why don’t you share your experience with others and post some pictures on your social platform? What you do may be beneficial to others. 【Text9原文】M: Hello, Nancy. I know you are one of a few female taxi drivers in the city and you drive for a living. What made you want to be a taxi driver in the first place? W: I remembered the first time when I saw those taxi drivers dressed so neatly in their uniforms as a kid, and I thought driving was really cool. When I finally learned to drive, it was something I greatly enjoyed and I took pride in driving well. M: So what's the best part of your job? W: I can see this city changes from season to season because the job is being outdoors. And there is scenery I would probably never have seen in another job. I love all kinds of weather. I like to leave the window down in a fine rain, when I have a long drive, and maybe at the end of the day. I sometimes go past my home to tell my two little children I'll be home soon, when they always want to come along in my car. M: I guess all kids like to be taken for a ride sometimes. W: Yes but I cannot take them with me. So I have to pay the fares for them sometimes, and take them out in my taxi, because I really think it is fun to drive out to the countryside for a long drive, with the fresh air and sun shining. 【Text10原文】M: While there are a number of first-aid boxes on the market, they often lack some things you need or have other things that you don’t need. Instead of buying such a first-aid box, you can save money and get everything you need in the box by creating your own. Select a small box or bag, which is light and can hold all of your first-aid materials. This is of particular importance if you need it while you are taking a trip away from home. Separate your first-aid box or bag into two sections. One section should include all of your basic medical supplies, such as bandages, while the second one should include medicine. Make sure that your box contains important basic medicine. There should be enough for your family or group, which means that the larger your family or groups is, the more medicine you need in your first-aid box. When it comes to bandages and other lightweight items, the more the better. Keep other necessary things in your first-aid box as well. For example, if someone in your family has high blood pressure, the first-aid box is a great place to keep blood pressure medicine, in case there is an emergency when you are far from medical help. You might also put emergency phone numbers, snake bite medicine or other items into your first-aid box. 解析： 【A】 【答案】21. C 22. D 23. D 【解析】 【导语】本文为一篇应用文，介绍了Loughgarr舒适单人房的预定信息。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章Park for free中“This is one of the few places in the area with free parking.(这是这个地区为数不多的免费停车的地方之一)”及About this place中“the shower and toilet is shared with the other guests staying. For this room, the occupancy is limited to one guest. Cut-off for check-in is 10 pm.(淋浴间和卫生间与其他入住的客人共用。这个房间仅限一位客人入住。办理入住手续的截止时间是晚上10点)”可知，这个房间适合单个自驾游来该地旅游的人。故选C。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据Select check-in date中第一张表中日期可知，划去的时间为已经订满的时间，因此，D选项“23号到25号”可以入住。故选D。 【23题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章标题“Loughgarr Comfortable Single Room(Loughgarr舒适单人房)”及全文信息可知，本文介绍了Loughgarr舒适单人房的基本信息、入住须知、可预订日期和评论，目的在于提供预订信息。故选D。 【B】 【答案】24. C 25. B 26. A 27. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了2024年巴黎奥运会攀岩比赛背后的关键人物——马丁·哈默尔（Martin Hammerer），他负责设计攀岩比赛的路线，并详细描述了他的工作内容、设计理念以及攀岩路线设置的发展变化。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Behind the scenes, there is a crucial but often unseen figure — Martin Hammerer, head of the experienced team responsible for the Lead routes, who has been setting routes internationally since 2007.(在幕后，有一个关键但往往不为人知的人物——Martin Hammerer，负责Lead路线的经验丰富的团队负责人，自2007年以来一直在国际上制定路线。)”可知，Hammerer是设计运动攀岩路线的，故选C。 【25题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段中的“The actual design took place at the climbing wall. The International Federation of Sport Climbing (IFSC) pre-selected the material, which we then used to set the routes,” Hammerer explained when asked about his work in Paris. “We started with the finals — which was the highlight — and worked backward to the semi-finals. After completing a route, we photographed it, removed and stored the holds for later use.(‘实际的设计是在攀岩墙上进行的。国际运动攀岩联合会（IFSC）预先选择了材料，然后我们用它来设定路线。’当被问及他在巴黎的工作时，Hammerer解释说：‘我们从决赛开始——这是最精彩的部分——然后回到半决赛。在完成一条路线后，我们拍摄了它，并将其移走并储存起来以备以后使用。’)”可知，Hammerer在本段解释了攀岩路线是怎样设计的。由此可知，第二段主要介绍了设置攀岩路线的过程，故选B。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Routesetting relies heavily on the team’s creativity. The style has changed over the past 15 years, with today’s routes looser and more dynamic. ‘The materials and structures have also changed greatly,’ Hammerer said. ‘Every season we adapt to the athletes anew.(路线设置在很大程度上依赖于团队的创造力。在过去的15年里，风格发生了变化，今天的路线更加宽松和充满活力。‘材料和结构也发生了很大变化，’Hammerer说：‘每个赛季，我们都会重新适应运动员。’)”可知，路线设置在很大程度上依赖于团队的创造力，并且每个赛季都会重新适应运动员；由此可知，Hammerer的团队通过平衡创新和适应来实现他们的目标，故选A。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“As Hammerer once said, ‘Climbers evolve, and so must we.’ He continues to shape the future of climbing — one route, one challenge, one story at a time.(正如Hammerer曾经说过的那样，“登山者在进化，我们也必须进化。”他继续塑造登山的未来——一条路线，一个挑战，一个故事。)”可知，Hammerer在最后一段中传达的信息是“变化是唯一不变的”，即我们要随着攀岩者的进化而进化，要不断创新和适应，故选B。 【C】 【答案】28. C 29. B 30. D 31. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了语言学家Andrea E. Martin团队的研究发现：人类大脑通过调整语法分析策略来适应不同语言的基本语法差异，并强调科学界需在语言模型中纳入更多语言多样性。 【28题详解】 推理判断题​​。根据第一段“But the human brain routinely does this work nearly at once based on the language’s grammatical rules, says linguist Andrea E. Martin. And Martin’s team has now found that the human brain can accommodate fundamental grammatical differences across languages by adjusting how it processes each sentence.( 但语言学家Andrea E. Martin表示，人脑通常会根据语言的语法规则几乎立即完成这项工作。而且，马丁的团队现在发现，人脑能够通过调整处理每个句子的方式来适应不同语言之间根本性的语法差异)”可知，作者开篇举例是为了引出Martin团队的新研究发现，即大脑处理不同语言的灵活性。故选C。 【29题详解】 词义猜测题​​。根据第三段“participants tended to finish each phrase in their head preemptively before it was complete(参与者倾向于在短语未完成时preemptively 在脑中补全它)”可知，上文说的是参与者需要再头脑中补全每一个句子，下文说的是在完成之前，可推理出此处说的是参与者倾向于在短语未完成时提前在脑中补全它，可推理出“preemptively”意为“提前地”，故选B。 【30题详解】 推理判断题​​。根据第四段“In Dutch language structure, verbs come near the end of a sentence rather than immediately after the subject like they do in English, while in Korean, the subject is usually left out and in Arabic verbs often come first. So flexibility is vital in processing different languages simply because they have different properties(在荷兰语的结构中，动词位于句子的末尾，而不是像英语那样紧跟在主语之后；而在韩语中，主语通常被省略；在阿拉伯语里，动词往往放在最前面。因此，在处理不同语言时，灵活性至关重要，因为它们具有不同的特性)”可知，荷兰语结构为“主语+宾语+动词”结构。选项D“I a documentary about the universe saw”为“主语I+宾语a documentary+动词saw”结构，符合荷兰语结构。故选D。 【31题详解】 ​​推理判断题​​。根据最后一段“The findings support the need for scientists to include more diversity when crafting linguistic models(这些发现支持了科学家在构建语言模型时需要纳入更多多样性的必要性)”可知，这些发现支持了科学家在构建语言模型时需要纳入更多多样性的必要性，可推理出Martin强调研究中语言多样性的必要性，故选D。 【D】 【答案】32. C 33. D 34. C 35. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。“brain rot（脑腐）”被评为 2024 年牛津年度词汇，天津师范大学的一项新研究表明过度观看网上“不重要或无挑战性”内容可能真会导致人的精神状态衰退。研究发现常看短视频的学生大脑结构有明显差异，似乎表明 “脑腐” 有一定真实性，构成威胁，但该研究存在局限性，比如采用横断面设计，无法证明因果关系，“脑腐”可能只是过度担忧。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Named as the Oxford Word of the Year for 2024, “brain rot” is defined as the supposed decline of a person’s mental state as a result of watching too much “unimportant or unchallenging” content online.(“脑腐”被评为 2024 年牛津年度词汇，它被定义为由于在网上观看过多“不重要或无挑战性”的内容而导致的人精神状态的假定衰退)” 可知，“脑腐”是一个被广泛认可的文化术语。故选C。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“They had increased grey matter in the orbitofrontal cortex (OFC), the brain area linked to decision - making and emotional regulation, and in the cerebellum, which plays a role in movement and emotions.(他们的眶额叶皮层（OFC）—— 这个与决策制定和情绪调节相关的脑区，以及在运动和情绪方面发挥作用的小脑，其灰质有所增加)” 可知，研究的主要发现之一是决策区域灰质增加。故选D。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“A major shortcoming of the study is its cross-sectional design. If the goal were to prove that watching hours of short videos harms the brain, a more effective approach would be to examine participants’ brains before and after they consumed different amounts of the supposedly harmful content. Yet the study was cross-sectional, meaning it only relied on data from a single time point. There was no before-and-after comparison to show cause and effect.(该这项研究的一个主要缺点是它的横截面设计。如果目的是证明观看数小时的短视频对大脑有害，那么更有效的方法是在参与者观看不同数量的所谓有害内容之前和之后检查他们的大脑。然而，这项研究是横向的，这意味着它只依赖于一个时间点的数据。没有前后对比来显示因果关系)” 可知，作者质疑该研究的设计主要是因为它未能建立因果关系。故选C。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章主要介绍“brain rot（脑腐）”被评为 2024 年牛津年度词汇，天津师范大学的一项新研究表明过度观看网上 “不重要或无挑战性” 内容可能真会导致人的精神状态衰退。研究发现常看短视频的学生大脑结构有明显差异，似乎表明“脑腐”有一定真实性，构成威胁，但该研究存在局限性，比如采用横断面设计，无法证明因果关系，“脑腐”可能只是过度担忧。结合倒数第二段“Despite the alarming implications, the study has limitations. Similar concerns about technology’s impact on the brain have surfaced before, such as claims that digital media have posed an existential threat. Yet, no conclusive evidence has proven these fears true. Professor Peter Etchells argues there’s no solid science showing short videos uniquely harm the brain.(尽管研究结果暗示的影响令人担忧，但其仍存在局限性。此前，人们也曾对科技对大脑的影响提出过类似担忧，例如有观点称数字媒体已构成生存威胁。然而，尚无确凿证据证实这些担忧是真实的。彼得・埃切尔斯教授认为，没有可靠的科学依据表明短视频会对大脑造成独特的伤害)”可知，短文的最佳标题为“脑腐：真实威胁还是过度担忧？”故选A。 【七选五答案】 36．F 37．B 38．A 39．G 40．C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章分享了作者通过旅行获得的感悟，提供了轻装出行、住青旅、参加免费步行游览和咨询游客中心等实用旅行建议，帮助读者提升旅行体验。 36．前文“The more I travel, the more I feel like I understand the world, the people in it, and, often, myself. Getting off the beaten path, meeting locals, and visiting incredible sites have made my life better. (走得越远，我越能理解这个世界、其中的人们，以及常常被重新认识的自己。离开常规路线，遇见当地居民，探访绝美风景——这些都让我的生活更美好)”介绍旅行给自己带来的好处，后文“While I go into a lot of depth in my new book on budget travel, I want to share some tips with you. (尽管我在新出版的穷游指南中已经做了详尽阐述，但在此仍想与你分享几条实用建议)”提到要分享旅行建议，因此F项“And if you welcome such experiences, it will make your life better, too. (如果你也欢迎这样的体验，它会让你的生活更美好)”符合语境，过渡到旅行也会给读者带来好处，承前启后，其中的make your life better和前文的made my life better呼应。故选F。 37．前文“Take half the clothes you think you will need. (衣服只带你认为必需的一半就够了)”强调带更少的衣物，后文“It’s OK to wear the same T-shirt a few days in a row. (连续几天穿同一件T恤完全没问题)”指出衣服可以重复穿，因此B项“You won’t need as much as you think. (你需要的不会像你以为的那么多)”符合语境，解释少带衣服的原因，承前启后。故选B。 38．前文“Hostelworld is the best hostel-accommodation website out there, with the largest inventory (房源), best search interface, and highest availability. (Hostelworld是全球最佳的青年旅舍预订平台，拥有最丰富的房源储备、最优的搜索界面和最高的预订成功率)”推荐使用Hostelworld网站预订旅馆，因此A项“I use it for all my hostel bookings. (我所有的青旅预订都通过它完成)”符合语境，提到自己使用Hostelworld的经验，佐证前文的推荐，其中的it指代前文的Hostelworld。故选A。 39．前文“Take free walking tours. (参加免费步行游览)”是本段主旨句，建议参加免费步行游览，后文“You will love taking walking tours when you travel. You will pass the time and get to learn so much about where you are. (旅行时参加步行游览绝对会让你爱上这种体验——既能消磨时光，又能深度了解当地风情)”详细介绍免费步行游览的好处，因此G项“Besides being free, these tours will give you a good idea of the city you are visiting. (除了免费之外，这些游览能让你很好地了解所访问的城市)”符合语境，总的指出免费步行游览对旅游体验的好处，呼应主旨句，引出后文。故选G。 40．后文“This is probably one of the most underused travel tips in the world. Tourism information centers know about everything going on in town. They can point you to free activities, special events happening during your stay, and everything in between. They are also staffed by locals who can tell you all the ins and outs of their city. (这可能是全球最被低估的旅行建议了。游客信息中心掌握着城里的一切动态：既能为你推荐免费活动、特别庆典等各类精彩项目，更有熟悉城市每个角落的当地工作人员，为你揭秘这座城市的所有门道)”推荐前往信息游客中心，并详述其功能，空处位于段首，是段落主旨句，需统领段落内容，且需和其他段首句一样使用祈使句的形式，因此C项“Always visit the local tourism information center.

Behind the scenes, there is a crucial but often unseen figure — Martin Hammerer, head of the experienced team responsible for the Lead routes, who has been setting routes internationally since 2007. “The actual design took place at the climbing wall. The International Federation of Sport Climbing (IFSC) pre-selected the material, which we then used to set the routes,” Hammerer explained when asked about his work in Paris. “We started with the finals — which was the highlight — and worked backward to the semi-finals. After completing a route, we photographed it, removed and stored the holds for later use.” The focus for the routesetters is to offer a challenging but also fair competition. Routes for the combined Boulder & Lead event were carefully designed to ensure that specialists in one discipline didn’t have an unfair advantage. “Our aim is to offer a balanced competition,” Hammerer said. “For the podiums (领奖台), the athletes have to be really strong in both disciplines.” Routesetting relies heavily on the team’s creativity. The style has changed over the past 15 years, with today’s routes looser and more dynamic. “The materials and structures have also changed greatly,” Hammerer said. “Every season we adapt to the athletes anew.” Routesetting used to be quite independent and greatly influenced climbing style. “But now, federations set training routes for athletes. When we see this on social media, we get new input for our work,” Hammerer reflected. As Hammerer once said, “Climbers evolve, and so must we.” He continues to shape the future of climbing — one route, one challenge, one story at a time. 24. What does Hammerer do? A. He competes in sport climbing events. B. He coaches athletes for the Olympics. C. He designs routes for sport climbing. D. He judges climbing competitions. 25. What is paragraph 2 mainly about? A. The materials used for route setting. B. The process of setting climbing routes. C. The criteria for routes of varied levels. D. The location selected for route setting. 26. How did Hammerer’s team achieve their aim? A. By balancing innovation and adaptation. B. By sticking to federations’ training routes. C. By promoting their concept through social media. D. By disciplining themselves to follow strict guidelines. 27. What message does Hammerer convey in the last paragraph? A. Practice makes perfect. B. Change is the only constant. C. Slow and steady wins the race. D. Actions speak louder than words. C Understanding a simple-looking English sentence such as “I read this article yesterday” actually requires some complicated conceptual computation: a subject (“I”) performed an action (“read”) on an object (“article”) at a specific time (“yesterday”). But the human brain routinely does this work nearly at once based on the language’s grammatical rules, says linguist Andrea E. Martin. And Martin’s team has now found that the human brain can accommodate fundamental grammatical differences across languages by adjusting how it processes each sentence. For a recent study in PLOS Biology, the researchers observed variations in Dutch-speaking participants’ brain waves while they listened to a Dutch-language audiobook. To visualize these changes, the scientists used a metric (指标) quantifying how many new “predictions” the brain makes of words that could come next in a sentence. This framework was then tested against three different parsing (语法分析的) strategies, or linguistic models that illustrate how the brain builds information over time. Previous English-based studies with a similar setup concluded in favor of a model where listeners “wait and see” how each phrase in a sentence will end before interpreting it. But the Dutch speakers in Martin’s study leaned strongly toward a highly predictive model; participants tended to finish each phrase in their head preemptively before it was complete. (A third model, in which listeners wait to hear all of the phrases in a sentence before interpreting any part of it, is seldom used in either language.) In Dutch language structure, verbs come near the end of a sentence rather than immediately after the subject like they do in English, while in Korean, the subject is usually left out and in Arabic verbs often come first. So flexibility is vital in processing different languages simply because they have different properties. The findings support the need for scientists to include more diversity when crafting linguistic models. “This is going to help us capture how the brain is understanding the structured meaning of language, and the social application of language,” Martin says. “There’s so much yet to be understood in the brain.” 28. Why does the author cite the example in paragraph 1? A. To introduce a grammar rule. B. To analyze an English sentence. C. To bring in a new research finding. D. To stress the complexity of human brain. 29. What does the underlined word “preemptively” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. By accident. B. In advance. C. On time. D. By mistake. 30. Which sentence can match the Dutch language structure? A. Universe the about documentary saw. B. Saw I a documentary about the universe. C. I saw a documentary about the universe. D. I a documentary about the universe saw. 31. What does Martin try to stress in the last paragraph? A. The challenges of brain researches. B. The application of the present findings. C. The purposes of different linguistic models. D. The necessity to diversify subjects in studies. D Named as the Oxford Word of the Year for 2024, “brain rot” is defined as the supposed decline of a person’s mental state as a result of watching too much “unimportant or unchallenging” content online. While often used jokingly, a new study from Tianjin Normal University suggests there may be some truth to it. Researchers examined the brains of 111 students, all regular viewers of short videos, and found that those most attached to them had noticeable differences in brain structure. They had increased grey matter in the orbitofrontal cortex (OFC), the brain area linked to decision-making and emotional regulation, and in the cerebellum, which plays a role in movement and emotions. The researchers proposed that constant consumption of feeds might strengthen brain-related pathways, making the habit more deeply rooted. A second examination showed increased synchronization (同步) in multiple brain areas, including those involved in self-control and self-reflection. This could indicate difficulties disengaging from videos and increased social comparison. Participants who scored higher on a questionnaire measuring “envy” also showed stronger links between video addiction and brain differences, suggesting that either “envy” fuels social media use or that extended video-viewing promotes “envy”. Despite the alarming implications, the study has limitations. Similar concerns about technology’s impact on the brain have surfaced before, such as claims that digital media have posed an existential threat. Yet, no conclusive evidence has proven these fears true. Professor Peter Etchells argues there’s no solid science showing short videos uniquely harm the brain. A major shortcoming of the study is its cross-sectional design. If the goal were to prove that watching hours of short videos harms the brain, a more effective approach would be to examine participants’ brains before and after they consumed different amounts of the supposedly harmful content. Yet the study was cross-sectional, meaning it only relied on data from a single time point. There was no before-and-after comparison to show cause and effect. Thus, a healthier approach is to reflect on media habits, making mindful choices while appreciating the benefits of technology. 32. What is “brain rot” according to paragraph 1? A. A medically confirmed illness. B. A rising fashion trend among youth. C. A widely recognized cultural term. D. A growing awareness of short videos. 33. Which is one of the main findings of the research? A. Reduced capacity for social comparison. B. Weakened emotional regulation abilities. C. Damaged structures in movement-related areas. D. Increased grey matter in decision-making regions. 34. The author questions the study’s design primarily for its ______. A. overemphasis on envy-related data. B. insufficiency for sample diversity. C. failure to establish cause and effect. D. reliance on subjective measurements. 35. Which is the best title for the text? A. Brain Rot: Real Threat or Overstated Fear? B. Social Media: Mental Stimulation or Brain Harm? C. Why “Brain Rot” Became Word of the Year? D. How Social Media Rewires the Human Brain? 第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 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。 The more I travel, the more I feel like I understand the world, the people in it, and, often, myself.

It was a message from Ryan: “Meet at the park in 15 minutes?” Jake smiled. It had been a long week of school, and he couldn’t wait to play basketball with his friends. Just as he was heading out, his mom called from the kitchen. “Jake! Come back! I need your help with the storage room.” “But Mom, I told Ryan I’d meet him at the park.” Jake protested. "We talked about this. Grandma is moving in this weekend, so we need to clean out the storage room to make space for her.” “Grandma?” Jake thought, the word feeling almost foreign on his tongue. He didn't even know her that well-it had been years since she last visited, and now she was moving in? He couldn't believe he had to give up his Saturday for someone he barely knew. With complaints and sighs, he kicked at the floor as he trudged down the hallway, dragging his feet like they weighed a ton. Stepping into the storage room, his nose wrinkled in disgust. The place was a disaster. Spiderwebs drooped from every corner, and dust swirled in the sunlight like dirty smoke. Boxes teetered(摇摇欲坠) in unstable stacks(摞,堆), a rolled-up carpet with worn edges lay half-spilled across the floor, and forgotten junk crowded every inch. Jake let out a long, dramatic sigh-this job was going to take forever. Just as he was about to give up and sneak a text to Ryan, a faded blue album tucked(塞) at the bottom of the suitcase caught his eye. Faint words were etched on its leather cover: Stories with Jake (To Be Continued...). He pulled it out and flipped it open-the pages were filled with moments of him and his grandmother. On the very first page was a photo: his grandmother, much younger then, cradling(轻轻地抱着) a tiny baby wrapped in a soft blanket. At the bottom of the photo he saw some words in careful handwriting: “Glad to meet you, baby Jake.” 注意：1．续写词数应为150个左右；2．请按如下格式在答题卷的相应位置作答。 Para 1: As he flipped through more photos, his eyes began to mist. Para 2: Next morning, when his grandmother stepped into her new room, Jake handed her the album. 高二英语试题 第15页 （共16页） 高二英语试题 第16页 （共16页） 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
