【解析】
【原文】W: Welcome to Healthy Life. I’m Linda Robbins. In today’s program, we’ll discuss tips on how to fall asleep faster. Some people find it harder to fall asleep than others do. But experts say there are different things we can do to help us fix it. Here are some of them.
Morning light is important. According to Russell Foster, getting a good night’s sleep starts in the morning. He says it’s important to get much natural light as early as possible. This can help move our body clock to an earlier time so that we already feel tired when we go into bed later on.
Don’t nap after 4:00 p.m. While short naps help us feel less tired during the day, Foster says we shouldn’t nap for longer than 20 minutes before going to bed, or we might have difficulty falling asleep later.
Practice mindfulness. “Most people don’t have a sleep problem, but they have an anxiety problem,” Foster says, and he recommends practicing mindfulness as a way to relax before bed. We could try reading or doing some breathing exercises.
He adds that important conversations should be saved for when it’s light outside, because they could keep our mind active and stop us from falling asleep quickly.

When Dr. Emily Carter was a young girl, she was fascinated by the way water interacted with different materials in her backyard. She would spend hours watching how rainwater passed through the soil, and how certain plants seemed to grow better in wet. This early curiosity about the natural world’s processes stayed with her as she grew older.
After obtaining degrees in environmental science and materials engineering, Dr. Carter started to think about how to use her knowledge to address a growing problem: water pollution in urban areas. Stormwater runoff, which picks up pollutants like oil, chemicals, and debris from roads and parking lots, was a major contributor to the worse of local water bodies.
She decided to design a new pavement material that could act as a natural filter (过滤器). Her idea was to create a porous (多孔的) concrete that would allow rainwater to pass through while trapping pollutants. Through countless experiments with different aggregates (骨料), binders, and additives, and by studying the behavior of various microorganisms that could potentially break down the trapped pollutants, Dr. Carter constructed small-scale test areas in her city. These areas were equipped with sensors to monitor the flow of water and the levels of pollutants both before and after passing through the new pavement.
As the months passed, The results were remarkable. The pavement significantly reduced pollutants in stormwater runoff. Encouraged by the results, Dr. Carter cooperated with local companies and agencies, aiming to build a city-wide network of pollutant-filtering pavements. Her vision was to give cities a self-cleaning mechanism, using nature’s purification processes to solve environmental problems.
24. What can we learn about Dr. Emily Carter from the first two paragraphs?
A. She was interested in urban development.
B. She had a strong desire to study engineering.
C. Her dream was to become a famous scientist.
D. Her childhood curiosity contributed to her later design.
25. Why did Dr. Carter decide to design a new pavement material?
A. To deal with water pollution in cities. B. To promote the growth of urban plants.
C. To reduce the cost of road construction. D. To improve the condition of urban roads.

Known for its role in Game of Thrones (《权力的游戏》), the dire wolf (冰原狼) went extinct over 10,000 years ago. On April 7, the US company Colossal Biosciences announced restoring this species via de-extinction — a historic first.
Time magazine said scientists studied fossils (化石) such as a 13,000-year-old dire wolf tooth and a 72,000-year-old ear bone and compared their genes to those of gray wolves to discover differences. They edited 14 key genes in gray wolf blood cells to match dire wolf traits, implanting modified cell’s nuclei (核) into surrogate (代孕) dogs’ eggs.
The babies, larger than gray wolves, now live in a preserve. They behaved like wolves by howling at two weeks old. But “we have not seen them attempt to hunt live prey”, Colossal’s Paige McNickle told Time magazine.
Some scientists have criticized the project. Professor Nic Rawlence from Otago University questioned using fossil DNA, calling it too damaged to use. “Ancient DNA is like if you put fresh DNA in a 500 degree oven overnight, it comes out like dust,” Rawlence told the BBC. He argued Colossal actually only created “a hybrid (杂交品种)” — a gray wolf with dire wolf features.
Colossal isn’t just reviving the dire wolf. Their list includes the woolly mammoth, dodo and Tasmanian tiger. Their mission goes beyond de-extinction: they also use the same technique to prevent species in danger from disappearing. For example, they brought back four red wolves, an endangered species, in the same way of restoring the dire wolf.
The Center for Biological Diversity predicts that 30% of the planet’s genetic diversity could be lost by 2050. Colossal CEO Ben Lamm argues that genetic engineering is crucial to prevent this loss. Yet some warn there could be consequences. Introducing new species can cause invasive species, while cloning often leads to health problems in animals and surrogates.
28. How did scientists try to restore the dire wolves?
A. By obtaining DNA from living dire wolves.
B. By hybridizing different modern wolf species.
C. By studying fossils of dire wolf and surrogating.
D. By using complete DNA of dire wolves to clone.
29. What can be learned about the “restored” dire wolf babies?
A. They exhibit some wolf-like behaviors.
B. They have already begun hunting live prey.
C. They are bigger in size than adult gray wolves.
D. They are completely the same as the ancient dire wolves.
30. Why does the author mention red wolves in the 5th paragraph?
A. To illustrate the variety of revived species.
B. To highlight the importance of biodiversity.
C. To contrast with the dire wolf’s revival process.
D. To show Colossal’s broader conservation efforts.
31. What is the author’s attitude towards the de-extinction?
A. Opposed and critical. B. Objective and cautious.
C. Supportive and optimistic. D. Humorous and unconcerned.
【答案】28. C 29. A 30. D 31. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要报道了美国公司Colossal Biosciences通过基因编辑技术尝试复活已灭绝的冰原狼,以及该技术面临的争议和更广泛的应用。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Time magazine said scientists studied fossils (化石) such as a 13,000-year-old dire wolf tooth and a 72,000-year-old ear bone and compared their genes to those of gray wolves to discover differences. They edited 14 key genes in gray wolf blood cells to match dire wolf traits, implanting modified cell’s nuclei into surrogate dogs’ eggs. (据《时代》杂志报道,科学家们研究了化石,比如一颗1.3万年前的冰原狼牙齿和一块7.2万年前的耳骨,并将它们的基因与灰狼的基因进行比较,以发现差异。他们编辑了灰狼血细胞中的14个关键基因,使其与冰原狼的特征相匹配,将修改后的细胞核植入代孕狗的卵子中)”可知,科学家们是通过研究冰原狼的化石,编辑灰狼血细胞中的关键基因,并将其植入代孕狗的卵子中,来尝试恢复冰原狼的。故选C。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“The babies, larger than gray wolves, now live in a preserve. They behaved like wolves by howling at two weeks old.(这些幼崽比灰狼大,现在生活在一个保护区里。它们在两周大的时候就像狼一样嚎叫)”可知,这些“复活”的冰原狼幼崽表现出了一些类似狼的行为。故选A。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段中“Colossal isn’t just reviving the dire wolf. Their list includes the woolly mammoth, dodo and Tasmanian tiger. Their mission goes beyond de-extinction: they also use the same technique to prevent species in danger from disappearing. For example, they brought back four red wolves, an endangered species, in the same way of restoring the dire wolf.(Colossal公司不仅仅是在复活冰原狼。它们的名单还包括猛犸象、渡渡鸟和塔斯马尼亚虎。它们的使命不仅仅是让灭绝的物种复活:它们还使用同样的技术来防止濒危物种消失。例如,他们用同样的方法带回了四种濒危物种红狼,就像恢复冰原狼一样)”可推知,作者提到红狼是为了展示Colossal公司在保护濒危物种方面的更广泛努力。故选D。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“On April 7, the US company Colossal Biosciences announced restoring this species via de-extinction — a historic first.(4月7日,美国Colossal Biosciences公司宣布通过“去灭绝”技术恢复这一物种,这是历史上的首次)”以及最后一段中“Colossal CEO Ben Lamm argues that genetic engineering is crucial to prevent this loss. Yet some warn there could be consequences. Introducing new species can cause invasive species, while cloning often leads to health problems in animals and surrogates.(Colossal公司首席执行官本•拉姆认为,基因工程对于防止这种损失至关重要。然而,也有人警告说可能会有后果。引入新物种可能会导致入侵物种,而克隆往往会导致动物和代孕者的健康问题)”可推知,作者在文章中既提到了Colossal公司的创新尝试,也提到了科学界的争议和潜在风险,因此作者对于去灭绝技术的态度是客观且谨慎的。故选B。
D
You’ve probably heard the saying that the eyes are the windows to the soul, but now it turns out that they’re also connected to how we breathe.
Our pupils (瞳孔) constantly adjust to light, focus, and emotions. The most common fact is that they control how much light entering eyes: look into a mirror and shine a light into your eyes, and your pupils narrow. Doctors use this to check brain health — for example, unresponsive pupils may signal stroke. Pupils also shrink (收缩) when focusing nearby but expand during hard thinking or strong feelings. This process affects how we see things. Bigger pupils help spot dim (暗淡的) objects in side vision; Smaller pupils sharpen focus for reading. Because pupil size also reflects mental effort, scientists track it to study attention in psychology experiments.
For decades, these pupil reactions were the only ones that scientists were aware of. Now, my team and I have corroborated that breathing is a new one. Through a series of five experiments with more than 200 participants, we have proved that pupil size is the smallest at the start of breathing in and the largest while breathing out.
Although the changes in pupils are tiny — smaller than the pupil reaction to light but similar to that to mental effort or more intense emotions — they are in theory large enough to influence our vision. Meanwhile, different from other pupil reactions, this one originates only in the body and happens all the time. Just like the reaction of our pupils to light, breathing may also be used to detect early symptoms of brain-related problems.
What’s more, if our breathing affects how our pupils change, could it also shape how we perceive the world around us? Our study opens the door to new insights on how natural body cycles shape our vision, as scientists are finding more and more proof that our brains don’t process external information individually — they combine signals from within our bodies, too. For example, information from our heart and stomach might also influence how we see the world around us.
32. What is the best-known function of pupils adjusting to light?
A. To improve side vision. B. To detect emotional changes.
C. To check brain health condition. D. To regulate the amount of light into eyes.
33. What does the underlined word “corroborate” mean in paragraph 3?
A. Imagine. B. Confirm. C. Question. D. Change.
34. What potential medical application is suggested by the author’s study?
A. Reducing mental effort in daily tasks.
B. Treating stroke through pupil analysis.
C. Improving vision in low-light conditions.
D. Detecting early signs of brain diseases via breathing.
35. Which is the best title of the article?
A. Breathing Affects Vision B. From Light to Mental Effort
C. Link Between Emotion and Vision D. Detect Health via Eye Movement
【答案】32. D 33. B 34. D 35. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了呼吸与瞳孔变化的关联。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“The most common fact is that they control how much light entering eyes: look into a mirror and shine a light into your eyes, and your pupils narrow.(最常见的事实是,它们控制着进入眼睛的光量:对着镜子,把光射进眼睛,瞳孔就会缩小)”可知,瞳孔最广为人知的功能是调节进入眼睛的光量。故选D。
【33题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“For decades, these pupil reactions were the only ones that scientists were aware of.(几十年来,这些瞳孔反应是科学家们所知的仅有的几种)”以及下文“Through a series of five experiments with more than 200 participants, we have proved that pupil size is the smallest at the start of breathing in and the largest while breathing out.(通过一系列对200多名参与者进行的五项实验,我们证明了瞳孔大小在吸气开始时最小,呼气时最大)”可知,作者团队通过一系列实验证明了呼吸是一种新的影响瞳孔的因素,故划线词与B项Confirm“证实”意义相近。故选B。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“Just like the reaction of our pupils to light, breathing may also be used to detect early symptoms of brain-related problems.(就像我们的瞳孔对光的反应一样,呼吸也可以用来检测大脑相关问题的早期症状)”可知,研究表明通过呼吸检测大脑疾病的早期迹象。故选D。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是第一段“You’ve probably heard the saying that the eyes are the windows to the soul, but now it turns out that they’re also connected to how we breathe.(你可能听过这样一句话:眼睛是心灵窗户,但现在事实证明,它们也与我们如何呼吸有关)”可知,文章开篇点明眼睛与呼吸有关联,后文围绕瞳孔变化与呼吸的关系展开,说明呼吸对视觉的影响,A 选项“呼吸影响视觉” 概括了文章核心内容,适合作为文章的标题。故选A。

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了江苏泗洪的钱杆舞及其传承与发展。
【56题详解】
考查名词。句意:然而,在江苏泗洪,钱杆舞因其文化意义在2023年被认定为江苏省非物质文化遗产。根据空前形容词cultural可知,空处应用名词significance“意义”,作宾语,为不可数名词。故填significance。
【57题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:钱杆是一种用竹子或木头制成的棍子,通常装饰有铜钱、铃铛和丝带。空处作非谓语动词,decorate与逻辑主语a stick之间是被动关系,应用过去分词作后置定语。故填decorated。
【58题详解】
考查介词。句意:钱杆舞表演者在当地民间音乐的节奏中,用钱杆敲打肩膀、腰部、腿部和其他身体部位。dance to the rhythm为固定搭配,意为“随着节奏跳舞”。故填to。
【59题详解】
考查主语从句。句意:最让他印象深刻的是舞蹈背后的淮河文化。空处引导主语从句,从句缺少主语,表示“……的事情”,应用连接代词what引导,位于句首首字母大写。故填What。
【60题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:泗洪县位于淮河沿岸,分隔中国南北。空处引导非限制性定语从句,修饰先行词Sihong County,先行词指物,在定语从句中作主语,应用关系代词which引导。故填which。
【61题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:为了传承这种传统的民间舞蹈,胡波在2013年组建了自己的团队。空处作非谓语动词,表示目的,应用不定式作目的状语,to位于句首首字母大写。故填To pass。
【62题详解】
考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意:从那时起,他就开始培训对这种舞蹈感兴趣的人,现在大约有30人能在舞台上表演钱杆舞。根据时间状语Since then可知,空处应用现在完成时或现在完成进行时,表示从过去进行到现在的动作,或者一个动作从过去开始持续到现在并将持续下去,主语he是第三人称单数,助动词用has。故填has trained/has been training。
【63题详解】
考查副词。句意:他们经常在庙会和博物馆表演,并参加比赛。空处修饰动词perform,应用副词regularly作状语。故填regularly。
【64题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:胡波还在抖音上分享这些表演的视频,吸引了许多观众。空处作非谓语动词,是前面句子一种自然而然的结果,应用现在分词作结果状语。故填attracting。
【65题详解】
考查冠词。句意:“他们鼓励我传承并进一步发展钱杆舞,这坚定了我把它带到更大舞台的决心,”胡波说。空处泛指一个,应用不定冠词,且bigger发音以辅音音素开头,应用不定冠词a。故填a。

【答案】
Recently our school carried out a survey about “Whether you’ll help the old when they fall down” among the students. Facing the question, the surveyed students hold different opinions.
The survey shows the students offering a positive answer account for 78.8%. Most of them think helping the elderly is a Chinese traditional virtue. On the contrary, 21.2% are unwilling to offer help. Some think they lack first-aid knowledge, which may even cause further injuries. Another reason may be that they’re afraid of being involved in unnecessary trouble.
In my opinion, it’s our responsibility to help the old, such as helping them by calling their family or 120. Give someone in need a hand, and we’ll have a harmonious society full of love.

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。
Over the summer I moved from Texas to Missouri. This was my second year of high school, but my first year of school in Missouri. I was really nervous about starting a new school and having people like me. I decided that I would be much happier in a new school if I made friends that were so-called “popular”. Getting in with the right group of people would make my life a whole lot better. I bought a new outfit so the first day would be perfect.
On the first day of school, scared, yet eager to begin my new life, I walked up the stairs. My first class was geometry, but where was that? I was standing in the hall looking confused, when a short, blond girl wearing glasses came up and asked, “Are you new? You look lost. Do you want me to help you find your class? My name is Diane. What’s yours?” Even though she seemed a bit strange, definitely not the kind of person I wanted to be associated with, I decided to answer her anyway. I was, after all, lost.
After exchanging names, I followed her up the stairs and down a hallway on the right. When we reached my room she said, “Well, here you are. It was nice meeting you. I hope I see you again and your day goes all right.”
I said a quick thank-you and waved good-bye. Once inside the classroom, I saw one big group of people huddled around someone who seemed to be telling some sort of story. I walked over and got close enough to overhear. All eyes were glued to the guy in the middle of the circle. I decided that this guy was popular.
A few minutes later the teacher told everyone to go find a seat and get ready for the class. I managed to get one right next to the guy. I said, “Hi, my name is April and I’m new here.” He said coldly, “Hi, I’m Johnny.” That class dragged on and on. Finally, the bell rang. I turned to him and asked, “I’m not sure where my next class is, could you help me find it?” He looked at me and then said a quick no, turned back to his friends, and walked out of the classroom.
注意:1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
As they were walking out, I heard they were all laughing at me.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Before I was ready to go home, I heard a familiar voice calling my name.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 As they were walking out, I heard they were all laughing at me. Their shrill laughing let me blush with shame. I felt so embarrassed that I couldn’t do anything but sit there, keeping my body unmoved and holding back my tears. What I wanted to do is just to make friends with them. I couldn’t figure out why they laughed at me. But one thing was certain, that is, I must removed myself from their presence. Therefore, I wasn’t ready to leave until they walked far away.
Before I was ready to go home, I heard a familiar voice calling my name. I felt very strange since I was new here without making any friends. Turning around, I saw Diane who came up to me with a warm smile on her face. She said she would walk together with me. What a kind and friendly girl she was, I thought. I was deeply moved so that I left all my embarrassment and sadness behind. On our way home, we talked a lot and I was surprised to find we had a lot in common. I also realized the true meaning of a friend.

When Dr. Emily Carter was a young girl, she was fascinated by the way water interacted with different materials in her backyard. She would spend hours watching how rainwater passed through the soil, and how certain plants seemed to grow better in wet. This early curiosity about the natural world’s processes stayed with her as she grew older.
After obtaining degrees in environmental science and materials engineering, Dr. Carter started to think about how to use her knowledge to address a growing problem: water pollution in urban areas. Stormwater runoff, which picks up pollutants like oil, chemicals, and debris from roads and parking lots, was a major contributor to the worse of local water bodies.
She decided to design a new pavement material that could act as a natural filter (过滤器). Her idea was to create a porous (多孔的) concrete that would allow rainwater to pass through while trapping pollutants. Through countless experiments with different aggregates (骨料), binders, and additives, and by studying the behavior of various microorganisms that could potentially break down the trapped pollutants, Dr. Carter constructed small-scale test areas in her city. These areas were equipped with sensors to monitor the flow of water and the levels of pollutants both before and after passing through the new pavement.
As the months passed, The results were remarkable. The pavement significantly reduced pollutants in stormwater runoff. Encouraged by the results, Dr. Carter cooperated with local companies and agencies, aiming to build a city-wide network of pollutant-filtering pavements. Her vision was to give cities a self-cleaning mechanism, using nature’s purification processes to solve environmental problems.
24 What can we learn about Dr. Emily Carter from the first two paragraphs?
A. She was interested in urban development.
B. She had a strong desire to study engineering.
C. Her dream was to become a famous scientist.
D. Her childhood curiosity contributed to her later design.
25. Why did Dr. Carter decide to design a new pavement material?
A. To deal with water pollution in cities. B. To promote the growth of urban plants.
C. To reduce the cost of road construction. D. To improve the condition of urban roads.
26. What was the key to Dr. Carter's pavement design?
A. Installing advanced sensors. B. Using high-quality concrete.
C. Trapping and breaking down pollutants. D. Cooperating with construction companies.
27. What did Dr. Carter hope to achieve in the long run?
A. To train more professionals in environmental science.
B. To make her pavement material well-known worldwide.
C. To establish a large-scale pollutant-filtering system in cities.
D. To win more awards for her outstanding environmental research.

Known for its role in Game of Thrones (《权力的游戏》), the dire wolf (冰原狼) went extinct over 10,000 years ago. On April 7, the US company Colossal Biosciences announced restoring this species via de-extinction — a historic first.
Time magazine said scientists studied fossils (化石) such as a 13,000-year-old dire wolf tooth and a 72,000-year-old ear bone and compared their genes to those of gray wolves to discover differences. They edited 14 key genes in gray wolf blood cells to match dire wolf traits, implanting modified cell’s nuclei (核) into surrogate (代孕) dogs’ eggs.
The babies, larger than gray wolves, now live in a preserve. They behaved like wolves by howling at two weeks old. But “we have not seen them attempt to hunt live prey”, Colossal’s Paige McNickle told Time magazine.
Some scientists have criticized the project. Professor Nic Rawlence from Otago University questioned using fossil DNA, calling it too damaged to use. “Ancient DNA is like if you put fresh DNA in a 500 degree oven overnight, it comes out like dust,” Rawlence told the BBC. He argued Colossal actually only created “a hybrid (杂交品种)” — a gray wolf with dire wolf features.
Colossal isn’t just reviving the dire wolf. Their list includes the woolly mammoth, dodo and Tasmanian tiger. Their mission goes beyond de-extinction: they also use the same technique to prevent species in danger from disappearing. For example, they brought back four red wolves, an endangered species, in the same way of restoring the dire wolf.
The Center for Biological Diversity predicts that 30% of the planet’s genetic diversity could be lost by 2050. Colossal CEO Ben Lamm argues that genetic engineering is crucial to prevent this loss. Yet some warn there could be consequences. Introducing new species can cause invasive species, while cloning often leads to health problems in animals and surrogates.
28. How did scientists try to restore the dire wolves?
A By obtaining DNA from living dire wolves.
B. By hybridizing different modern wolf species.
C. By studying fossils of dire wolf and surrogating.
D. By using complete DNA of dire wolves to clone.
29. What can be learned about the “restored” dire wolf babies?
A. They exhibit some wolf-like behaviors.
B. They have already begun hunting live prey.
C. They are bigger in size than adult gray wolves.
D. They are completely the same as the ancient dire wolves.
30. Why does the author mention red wolves in the 5th paragraph?
A. To illustrate the variety of revived species.
B. To highlight the importance of biodiversity.
C. To contrast with the dire wolf’s revival process.
D. To show Colossal’s broader conservation efforts.
31. What is the author’s attitude towards the de-extinction?
A. Opposed and critical. B. Objective and cautious.
C. Supportive and optimistic. D. Humorous and unconcerned.
D
You’ve probably heard the saying that the eyes are the windows to the soul, but now it turns out that they’re also connected to how we breathe.
Our pupils (瞳孔) constantly adjust to light, focus, and emotions. The most common fact is that they control how much light entering eyes: look into a mirror and shine a light into your eyes, and your pupils narrow. Doctors use this to check brain health — for example, unresponsive pupils may signal stroke. Pupils also shrink (收缩) when focusing nearby but expand during hard thinking or strong feelings. This process affects how we see things. Bigger pupils help spot dim (暗淡的) objects in side vision; Smaller pupils sharpen focus for reading. Because pupil size also reflects mental effort, scientists track it to study attention in psychology experiments.
For decades, these pupil reactions were the only ones that scientists were aware of. Now, my team and I have corroborated that breathing is a new one. Through a series of five experiments with more than 200 participants, we have proved that pupil size is the smallest at the start of breathing in and the largest while breathing out.
Although the changes in pupils are tiny — smaller than the pupil reaction to light but similar to that to mental effort or more intense emotions — they are in theory large enough to influence our vision. Meanwhile, different from other pupil reactions, this one originates only in the body and happens all the time. Just like the reaction of our pupils to light, breathing may also be used to detect early symptoms of brain-related problems.
What’s more, if our breathing affects how our pupils change, could it also shape how we perceive the world around us? Our study opens the door to new insights on how natural body cycles shape our vision, as scientists are finding more and more proof that our brains don’t process external information individually — they combine signals from within our bodies, too. For example, information from our heart and stomach might also influence how we see the world around us.
32. What is the best-known function of pupils adjusting to light?
A. To improve side vision. B. To detect emotional changes.
C. To check brain health condition. D. To regulate the amount of light into eyes.
33. What does the underlined word “corroborate” mean in paragraph 3?
A Imagine. B. Confirm. C. Question. D. Change.
34. What potential medical application is suggested by the author’s study?
A. Reducing mental effort in daily tasks.
B. Treating stroke through pupil analysis.
C. Improving vision in low-light conditions.
D. Detecting early signs of brain diseases via breathing.
35. Which is the best title of the article?
A. Breathing Affects Vision B. From Light to Mental Effort
C. Link Between Emotion and Vision D. Detect Health via Eye Movement

Over the summer I moved from Texas to Missouri. This was my second year of high school, but my first year of school in Missouri. I was really nervous about starting a new school and having people like me. I decided that I would be much happier in a new school if I made friends that were so-called “popular”. Getting in with the right group of people would make my life a whole lot better. I bought a new outfit so the first day would be perfect.
On the first day of school, scared, yet eager to begin my new life, I walked up the stairs. My first class was geometry, but where was that? I was standing in the hall looking confused, when a short, blond girl wearing glasses came up and asked, “Are you new? You look lost. Do you want me to help you find your class? My name is Diane. What’s yours?” Even though she seemed a bit strange, definitely not the kind of person I wanted to be associated with, I decided to answer her anyway. I was, after all, lost.
After exchanging names, I followed her up the stairs and down a hallway on the right. When we reached my room she said, “Well, here you are. It was nice meeting you. I hope I see you again and your day goes all right.”
I said a quick thank-you and waved good-bye. Once inside the classroom, I saw one big group of people huddled around someone who seemed to be telling some sort of story. I walked over and got close enough to overhear. All eyes were glued to the guy in the middle of the circle. I decided that this guy was popular.
A few minutes later the teacher told everyone to go find a seat and get ready for the class. I managed to get one right next to the guy. I said, “Hi, my name is April and I’m new here.” He said coldly, “Hi, I’m Johnny.” That class dragged on and on. Finally, the bell rang. I turned to him and asked, “I’m not sure where my next class is, could you help me find it?” He looked at me and then said a quick no, turned back to his friends, and walked out of the classroom.
注意:1. 续写词数应为150左右;

As they were walking out, I heard they were all laughing at me.
