After 25 years, of professional experience, Brandi Fields thought she wouldn’t get back to campus again — until her son Kyle’s transformation at Texas Christian University (TCU) made her see education in a new light. The mother and her son will strengthen their connection even more at this week’s spring graduation ceremony, as they honor their achievement of earning graduate degrees at the same time.
Brandi 50, and Kyle,.22, will walk across the stage together to accept their respective graduate degrees, with their family and friends cheering them on from the audience. Kyle began his undergraduate studies at TCU in the fall of 2020. Soon after, his family moved to Fort Worth, motivated to be closer as a family. In May 2023, Kyle earned his bachelor’s degree (学士学位) in communications and a minor in business. In fall 2023, both mother and son were back in the classroom — Brandi joined the EMBA program and Kyle began the master’s degree program with AddRan College of Liberal Arts.
Brandi said her new college experience brought immersive (沉浸式的) learning, late night readings and a transformative study abroad trip to South Africa. Through it all, she described feeling deeply supported by her family and the remarkable EMBA academic (学术的) team and staff who shaped her experience to be impactful and unforgettable. Outside the classroom, Brandi and Kyle found a lot of moments of connection. “Spending time together, just doing homework on the sofa gave us a lot of time, a lot of things to connect through,” Kyle shared.
About this week’s spring graduation ceremony, Brandi said she’s not yet sure how she’ll react on that day, but she knows there will no doubt be tears as she cheers on her son as he walks across the stage. For her to be doing it in her own cap and gown (长袍) from the floor of Ed and Rae Schollmaier Arena will make that a unique memory she’ll value forever.
4. What made Brandi decide to return to school?
A. The invitation from TCU.
B. A must for her career advancement.
C. A desire to strengthen family relationship.
D. Inspiration from her son’s academic journey.
5. What does paragraph 2 focus on?

Have you ever noticed how a particular song can bring back a flood of memories and make you deeply emotional? That’s because it’s not just your ears that are engaged when you listen to music-the areas of your brain responsible for emotion and memory also become active. While music’s ability to excite emotions and recall memories is well known, Yiren Ren, a sixth-year Ph.D. student in Georgia Tech’s School of Psychology, and her team wondered whether it could also change the emotional content of existing memories.
The researchers developed a three-day experiment to test it. On the first day, participants (参与者) memorized a series of short, emotionally neutral (中立的) stories. The next day, they recalled these stories while listening to either positive music, negative music, or silence, as fMRI recorded their brain activity by monitoring changes in blood flow. On the final day, participants were asked to recall the stories again, this time without any music.
The results were striking. When participants listened to emotionally charged music while recalling the neutral stories, they were more likely to include new emotional element s into the story that matched the mood of the music. Even more interesting was the brain imaging taken during the experiment. When participants recalled stories while listening to music, there was increased activity in brain areas responsible for emotional memory processing. This is why a song associated with a significant life event can feel so powerful – it activates both emotion and memory-processing regions at the same time.
The finding suggests that music is closely connected with memories and unnoticeably shaping their emotional tone. Memories may also be more flexible than previously thought and could be influenced by external sounds during recall. For people dealing with emotional disorders, carefully chosen music might help reshape those memories in a more positive light and potentially reduce their negative emotional impact over time.
8. Why did Yiren Ren and her team carry out the experiment?
A. To study how music excites emotions.
B. To measure brain activity during music.
C. To explore music’s memory recall ability.
D. To test if music affects emotions in memory.
9. What were participants required to do?
A. Create emotionally neutral stories. B. Read stories and summarize them.
C. Listen to music and report feelings. D. Memorize and recall stories across days.
10. What changes did participants experience during the music-added period?
A. Their neutral memories gained emotional color.
B. They could maintain attention for a longer period.
C. They struggled to recall emotionally charged stories.
D. Their brain regions for action control became active.
11. Which group of people might benefit from the finding?
A. Music lovers in daily life.
B. Researchers studying brain functions.
C. Students seeking memory improvement.
D. People suffering from mental health problems.
【答案】8. D 9. D 10. A 11. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了一项研究通过实验探索音乐能否改变现有记忆的情感内容及其发现。

D
Anyone with even a passing interest in the natural world will have noticed a dramatic phenomenon this year: a lack of insects. Perhaps most noticeable is the near-absence of butterflies. Species that are usually common are in many places down to the point of having almost disappeared.
There are several probable reasons for this sudden reduction compared with typical summers. The weather has not helped, with a cool and wet spring across much of the country affecting insect numbers. But even with that factored in, this year’s sudden drop comes after many years of going down little by little. Dave Goulson, one of the UK’s leading entomologists (昆虫学家), says that insect populations compared with a century ago are 90% to 95% down. That was not caused by one wet spring: it is the result of a combination of factors that include the rise of ever more intensive farming, destruction of animals’ living environment and the impacts of climate breakdown.
Aside from the disheartening silence and stillness of gardens, woods and grasslands, there are more practical implications. For example, many of our crop plants-including tomatoes, apples and strawberries-depend on wild insects to pollinate (授粉) them. Insects are also the food source of many birds that are also in decrease.
The present position will hopefully last for a short time but is nonetheless a wake-up call about the degree of losses that have taken place in recent decades. One thing that we can all do to help is to get out and gather more information. This weekend the annual Big Butterfly Count gets under way, helping people survey their local area as part of a necessary national counting exercise — a fantastic example of citizen science in action. Nature is not just a nice thing to have: it is important for our national health, wealth and safety. Our butterflies and other insects are telling us something rather important.
12. What can we learn about this year’s butterflies?
A. Their numbers suffer a sharp drop. B. Their species are rich and varied.
C. They can be found in many places. D. Their migration habits have changed.
13. Why is Dave Goulson mentioned in paragraph 2?
A. To suggest solutions to farming issues.
B. To show insect numbers a century ago.
C. To explain the impact of the cool wet spring.
D. To offer evidence for a long-term phenomenon.
14. What does the underlined word “implications” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Effects. B. Advantages. C. Features. D. Opportunities.
15. What does the author suggest readers do in the last paragraph?
A. Appreciate butterflies’ beauty. B. Wait for short-term recovery.
C. Join in citizen science activities. D. Study insect losses professionally.
【答案】12. A 13. D 14. A 15. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了今年昆虫数量锐减尤其是蝴蝶近乎消失的现象,分析原因并呼吁公众参与保护行动。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“Perhaps most noticeable is the near-absence of butterflies. Species that are usually common are in many places down to the point of having almost disappeared. (也许最明显的是蝴蝶几乎绝迹。通常很常见的物种在许多地方几乎消失殆尽。)”可知,今年蝴蝶的数量急剧下降。故选A。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“Dave Goulson, one of the UK’s leading entomologists (昆虫学家), says that insect populations compared with a century ago are 90% to 95% down. That was not caused by one wet spring: it is the result of a combination of factors that include the rise of ever more intensive farming, destruction of animals’ living environment and the impacts of climate breakdown. (英国顶尖昆虫学家之一戴夫·古尔森表示,与一个世纪前相比,昆虫数量减少了90%至95%。这不是一个潮湿的春天造成的:这是多种因素共同作用的结果,包括日益集约的农业兴起、动物生存环境的破坏以及气候崩溃的影响。)”可知,提到戴夫·古尔森是为了说明昆虫数量减少是一个长期现象,而非单一原因导致。故选D。
【14题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段中“Aside from the disheartening silence and stillness of gardens, woods and grasslands (除了花园、树林和草地的令人沮丧的寂静和静止)”以及后文“For example, many of our crop plants-including tomatoes, apples and strawberries-depend on wild insects to pollinate (授粉) them. Insects are also the food source of many birds that are also in decrease. (例如,我们的许多作物植物,包括西红柿、苹果和草莓,都依赖野生昆虫为它们授粉。昆虫也是许多鸟类的食物来源,这些鸟类的数量也在减少。)”可知,昆虫数量减少除了带来寂静的花园等直观感受外,还有更实际的影响,比如影响农作物授粉和鸟类食物来源。故implications意思是“影响”。A. Effects影响;B. Advantages优势;C. Features特征;D. Opportunities机会。故选A。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“One thing that we can all do to help is to get out and gather more information. This weekend the annual Big Butterfly Count gets under way, helping people survey their local area as part of a necessary national counting exercise — a fantastic example of citizen science in action. (我们每个人都能做的一件事就是走出去收集更多信息。本周末,一年一度的大蝴蝶计数活动开始,帮助人们调查当地情况,这是全国必要计数活动的一部分——公民科学在行动中的一个绝佳例子。)”可知,作者建议读者参与公民科学活动,如大蝴蝶计数活动,来帮助收集信息并保护昆虫。故选C。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了上海地铁实施新儿童免票政策,助力家庭出行。
【36题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:作为上海建设儿童友好型社会更广泛努力的一部分,上海正在使其地铁系统更加适合家庭出行,允许家长免费携带两名以上儿童。allow sb. to do sth.为固定搭配,意为“允许某人做某事”,本空用bring“带来”的动词不定式,作宾补。故填to bring。
【37题详解】
考查形容词。句意:根据更新的《上海地铁乘客指南》,该指南将于3月1日生效,成年人将被允许免费携带两名以上身高1.3米以下的儿童乘坐地铁,放宽了之前的限制。本空修饰名词guidelines,用update“更新”的形容词updated“更新的”,作定语。故填updated。
38题详解】
考查定语从句。句意同上。空格处引导非限制性定语从句,先行词guidelines,指物,关系词代替先行词在从句中作主语,因此用关系代词which引导定语从句,故填which。
【39题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意同上。句中已有谓语will be permitted,本空用relax“放宽”的非谓语形式,此处表示自然而然的结果,用relax“放松”的现在分词,作结果状语。故填relaxing。
【40题详解】
考查介词。句意:这一改变是为了让有几个孩子的父母更容易使用公共交通工具。此处是指有几个孩子的父母,介词with“有”符合题意。故填with。
【41题详解】
考查名词的数。句意:这是上海努力跟上国家支持养育子女和创建一个有利于家庭的社会政策的一部分。policy“政策”是可数名词,此处指不止一项政策,因此空格处用复数policies,作with的宾语。故填policies。
【42题详解】
考查连词。句意同上。raising children和creating a society that’s good for families是并列关系,因此空格处用and表并列,故填and。
【43题详解】
考查冠词。句意:此外,随身携带物品的最高重量已从23公斤提高到30公斤。the top weight表示“最高重量”,用定冠词the表特指,故填the。
【44题详解】
考查形容词比较级。句意:修订后的指南还引入了更严格的规定,以确保更安全、更舒适的旅行环境。根据并列的形容词比较级more comfortable可知,空格处用形容词比较级safer“更安全的”,一起作定语修饰名词短语travel environment。故填safer。
【45题详解】
考查时态,语态和主谓一致。句意:地铁内禁止吸烟,包括使用电子烟。句子描述客观事实,时态用一般现在时,且主语Smoking与谓语动词ban“禁止”为被动关系,用一般现在时的被动语态,主语smoking是不可数名词,be动词用is。故填is banned。

16-year-old Alex was a bright student with a passion for astronomy (天文学). However, he was also very shy and found it hard to make friends at school. His parents noticed his loneliness and felt anxious.
One rainy afternoon, Alex came across a forum for astronomy enthusiasts. Eager to connect, he joined in discussions. Soon, he received a private message from a user named “StarGazer123”.
“Hi Alex! I Love your Orion Nebula (猎户座大星云) posts; it’s my favorite too!” the message said.
Alex’s eyes widened, replying fast, “Why do you like it?”
StarGazer123 responded, “I adore its role in star birth. It’s like witnessing the universe’s creation.”
Days turned into weeks, and Alex and StarGazer123 chatted almost every day. Yet Alex couldn’t shake the strange feeling that he had known this person before. One evening, as Alex shared his excitement about an upcoming meteor (流星) shower, StarGazer123 suggested, “You should try to organize a viewing party! I can help you.”
Alex hesitated but then typed, “I don’t know. What if no one comes?”
“Don’t worry!” came the encouraging reply. “I’m sure others will be interested and I’ll be there to support you.” Alex felt surprised and couldn’t help wondering who StarGazer123 might be.

Brandi, 50, and Kyle,.22, will walk across the stage together to accept their respective graduate degrees, with their family and friends cheering them on from the audience. Kyle began his undergraduate studies at TCU in the fall of 2020. Soon after, his family moved to Fort Worth, motivated to be closer as a family. In May 2023, Kyle earned his bachelor’s degree (学士学位) in communications and a minor in business. In fall 2023, both mother and son were back in the classroom — Brandi joined the EMBA program and Kyle began the master’s degree program with AddRan College of Liberal Arts.
Brandi said her new college experience brought immersive (沉浸式的) learning, late night readings and a transformative study abroad trip to South Africa. Through it all, she described feeling deeply supported by her family and the remarkable EMBA academic (学术的) team and staff who shaped her experience to be impactful and unforgettable. Outside the classroom, Brandi and Kyle found a lot of moments of connection. “Spending time together, just doing homework on the sofa gave us a lot of time, a lot of things to connect through,” Kyle shared.
About this week’s spring graduation ceremony, Brandi said she’s not yet sure how she’ll react on that day, but she knows there will no doubt be tears as she cheers on her son as he walks across the stage. For her to be doing it in her own cap and gown (长袍) from the floor of Ed and Rae Schollmaier Arena will make that a unique memory she’ll value forever.

Have you ever noticed how a particular song can bring back a flood of memories and make you deeply emotional? That’s because it’s not just your ears that are engaged when you listen to music-the areas of your brain responsible for emotion and memory also become active. While music’s ability to excite emotions and recall memories is well known, Yiren Ren, a sixth-year Ph.D. student in Georgia Tech’s School of Psychology, and her team wondered whether it could also change the emotional content of existing memories.
The researchers developed a three-day experiment to test it. On the first day, participants (参与者) memorized a series of short, emotionally neutral (中立的) stories. The next day, they recalled these stories while listening to either positive music, negative music, or silence, as fMRI recorded their brain activity by monitoring changes in blood flow. On the final day, participants were asked to recall the stories again, this time without any music.
The results were striking. When participants listened to emotionally charged music while recalling the neutral stories, they were more likely to include new emotional element s into the story that matched the mood of the music. Even more interesting was the brain imaging taken during the experiment. When participants recalled stories while listening to music, there was increased activity in brain areas responsible for emotional memory processing. This is why a song associated with a significant life event can feel so powerful – it activates both emotion and memory-processing regions at the same time.
The finding suggests that music is closely connected with memories and unnoticeably shaping their emotional tone. Memories may also be more flexible than previously thought and could be influenced by external sounds during recall. For people dealing with emotional disorders, carefully chosen music might help reshape those memories in a more positive light and potentially reduce their negative emotional impact over time.
8. Why did Yiren Ren and her team carry out the experiment?
A. To study how music excites emotions.
B. To measure brain activity during music.
C. To explore music’s memory recall ability.
D. To test if music affects emotions in memory.
9. What were participants required to do?
A. Create emotionally neutral stories. B. Read stories and summarize them.
C. Listen to music and report feelings. D. Memorize and recall stories across days.
10. What changes did participants experience during the music-added period?
A. Their neutral memories gained emotional color.
B. They could maintain attention for a longer period.
C. They struggled to recall emotionally charged stories.
D Their brain regions for action control became active.
11. Which group of people might benefit from the finding?
A. Music lovers in daily life.
B. Researchers studying brain functions.
C. Students seeking memory improvement.
D. People suffering from mental health problems.
D
Anyone with even a passing interest in the natural world will have noticed a dramatic phenomenon this year: a lack of insects. Perhaps most noticeable is the near-absence of butterflies. Species that are usually common are in many places down to the point of having almost disappeared.
There are several probable reasons for this sudden reduction compared with typical summers. The weather has not helped, with a cool and wet spring across much of the country affecting insect numbers. But even with that factored in, this year’s sudden drop comes after many years of going down little by little. Dave Goulson, one of the UK’s leading entomologists (昆虫学家), says that insect populations compared with a century ago are 90% to 95% down. That was not caused by one wet spring: it is the result of a combination of factors that include the rise of ever more intensive farming, destruction of animals’ living environment and the impacts of climate breakdown.
Aside from the disheartening silence and stillness of gardens, woods and grasslands, there are more practical implications. For example, many of our crop plants-including tomatoes, apples and strawberries-depend on wild insects to pollinate (授粉) them. Insects are also the food source of many birds that are also in decrease.
The present position will hopefully last for a short time but is nonetheless a wake-up call about the degree of losses that have taken place in recent decades. One thing that we can all do to help is to get out and gather more information. This weekend the annual Big Butterfly Count gets under way, helping people survey their local area as part of a necessary national counting exercise — a fantastic example of citizen science in action. Nature is not just a nice thing to have: it is important for our national health, wealth and safety. Our butterflies and other insects are telling us something rather important.
12. What can we learn about this year’s butterflies?
A. Their numbers suffer a sharp drop. B. Their species are rich and varied.
C. They can be found in many places. D. Their migration habits have changed.
13. Why is Dave Goulson mentioned in paragraph 2?
A. To suggest solutions to farming issues.
B. To show insect numbers a century ago.
C. To explain the impact of the cool wet spring.
D. To offer evidence for a long-term phenomenon.
14. What does the underlined word “implications” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Effects. B. Advantages. C. Features. D. Opportunities.
15. What does the author suggest readers do in the last paragraph?
A. Appreciate butterflies’ beauty. B. Wait for short-term recovery.
C. Join in citizen science activities. D. Study insect losses professionally.
