Columbus,Ohio
Named one of the "Seven Smartest Cities in the World"by the World Smart City Forum,
Columbus,Ohio,is home to a lot of walkable neighborhoods,from the Short North Arts District
where art museums and coffee shops are plentiful,to the University District.Consider a stay in the
downtown area,which is especially walkable with its numerous concert places and restaurants
within easy reach.
Las Vegas,Nevada
Las Vegas may be famous for its casinos,shows and entertainment,but it's also considered
the cultural center of Nevada.The city as a whole isn't the most walkable destination,but the Las
Vegas Strip is extremely walker-friendly-it's small and easy to get from one attraction to another.
Pittsburgh,Pennsylvania
It's easy to lose track of time while you are wandering throughout the walkable downtown of
Pittsburgh.Once you're done admiring the architecture,catching a show,and hanging out at Point
State Park,cross Roberto Clemente Bridge to continue your explorations.Watch the world-championship
winner Pittsburgh Pirates play baseball at PNC Park,see Andy Warhol's work up close at a
museum dedicated to him,or spend an afternoon at the National Aviary.
Seattle,Washington
With the surrounding mountains,forests,and bodies of water,Seattle is nicknamed the "Emerald
City"for all its thick greenery.It's also very walkable,with many shops,restaurants,and attractions
easily accessed on foot.The most walker-friendly parts of Seattle include its downtown area,
Belltown,Capitol Hill,and Queen Anne.
21.What can we know about Columbus?
A.It is the cultural center of Ohio.
B.It is the smartest city in the US.
C.Its downtown is highly recommended for visitors.

"We're having cheese 'n'kabobs."That's what I heard my wife say.I knew I didn't hear
it right,so I asked her to repeat herself."Chicken kebabs,"she repeated.That made more sense.
What didn't make sense was why I misunderstood for the first time,when I was actually sitting one
foot away from her.
As I confirmed with testing,it's not because my ears were struggling to hear.Instead,my brain
was struggling to process the sounds.I was diagnosed()with Auditory Processing Disorder
(APD).The ears can take in the sounds,but the information the brain gets doesn't make sense.
Some people were bomn with the problem,while others,like me,develop it after an injury to
the brain.My world changed after I fell over and hit my head.While my other problems,such as
sensitivity()to light,gradually improved over the years,the issue with hearing things
differently remained and it took a long time for me to understand why.
I eventually found an expert who could figure out what was going on.Before the meeting,I
struggled a lot with simple interactions()with the world around me,like listening to music,

reading,and talking to my family and friends.Though learning I had APD was scary,getting the
diagnosis felt like a door had finally been opened and I could get out of prison.There was a way to
interact with the world after all.
The doctor told me that,despite no cure for APD,there are tools and tricks to make it easier
to live with.As suggested,when someone wants to talk to me,I stop what I'm doing first-my
brain can't deal with many information flows at once.
Now,it's great that my wife doesn't have to repeat herself over and over again.The downside
is that the way she gets my attention now is making me feel a little like Siri(a voice assistant on
some electronic products).Our conversations often begin with,"Hey,Ryan!"
24.Why did the author mishear his wife?
A.His wife stood far away from him.
B.He paid little attention to her then.
C.He failed to process sounds properly.
D.His ears had difficulty in receiving sounds.
25.How did the author develop APD?
A.He got it after a serious illness.
B.He was born with the condition.
C.He suffered a brain injury from a fall.
D.He experienced long-term ear problems.
26.What was the author's reaction when he got the diagnosis?
A.He didn't believe it.
B.He felt relieved and hopeful.
C.He was disappointed and fearful.
D.He considered it a reason to quit.
27.What did the expert suggest the author do?
A.Focus on one task at a time.
B.Practise his hearing regularly.
C.Try hard to improve his memory.
D.Use digital tools like Siri.

To us humans,glass is ordinary;to birds,it's one of the world's most troubling materials.A
bird flying toward a window notices only the space and objects beyond,not the invisible(
force field in its way.Glass kills as many as a billion birds every year in the United States
alone.
Chicago,among the largest and brightest cities within North America's Mississippi flyway,is
especially deadly.The millions of artificial()lights present themselves as false stars,
confusing birds that locate themselves by starlight and attracting them toward the glassy buildings
below.In 2019,researchers at the Comell Lab of Ornithology considered Chicago the country's
most dangerous city for birds.
The city's residents aren't oblivious of the disaster.Some building managers have taken measures
to protect birds,and politicians have tried to relieve the problem through laws.But progress has
been slow,and new glass buildings appear every year.
The history of bird-strike research in Chicago dates back to 1978.That year,Dave Willard,an
ornithologist at the city's Field Museum,inspired Lights Out Chicago,a citywide activity that
encourages building managers to shut their lights during migration()seasons.Most years,
more than 90 percent of Chicago's towers take part."Yet even with lights out,a large number of
birds are killed,"Willard said."There's no change in our taste for glass as an architectural feature."
Fortunately,Illinois took the lead in 2021 by requiring that new state-owned buildings include
bird-friendly things like netting and screens,becoming one of the first US states to pass such a law.
28.What makes Chicago particularly dangerous for birds?
A.It lies in the birds'main flyway.
B.Its glass buildings are much taller.
C.Its residents usually catch birds.
D.It has much light reflected by glass.
29.What does the underlined part "aren't oblivious of"in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A.Aren't aware of.
B.Aren't interested in.
C.Aren't affected by
D.Aren't blind to.

30.What can be inferred from Dave Willard's words in paragraph 4?
A.People's preference for glass worsens the bird death problem
B.More laws should be laid down to protect the birds from dying.
C.Building managers should actively take part in Lights Out Chicago.
D.Turning off lights is the most effective way to solve the bird death problem.
31.What does the text mainly talk about?
A.The history of US bird migration research.
B.The bird death from glass and its solutions.
C.The popularity of Chicago's glass architecture
D.Artificial lighting's effects on the environment.

In the past,finding a private sports coach often meant word-of-mouth referrals,expensive
training equipment,and longtime scheduling.But as technology continues to reshape the way we
work,learn,and connect,the world of youth sports training is getting its own upgrade.
Just as Uber reimagined transportation,new digital platforms are now decentralizing()
the $20 billion youth sports industry,giving families more direct access to qualified coaches-and
providing former athletes with flexible opportunities after their playing careers()end.It is
comforting to see that the time of on-demand coaching comes.
This model,often referred to as the "platformization"of sports training,is catching on fast.
Rather than having to pay for year-round training fees or expensive academies,families can now
access high-quality coaching one session()at a time-often from athletes who have competed
at the highest levels.The data from Athletes Untapped,an on-demand coaching platform,shows a
great increase in the number of youth training sessions booked online between 2018 and 2024.The
sharp rise reflects increasing comfort with using digital tools to find and schedule specialized
coaching,in line with consumer trends()seen in fitness,tutoring,and other service fields.
Much of this growth has been driven by parents seeking personalized,flexible training options
that fit into increasingly busy family schedules.Rather than signing up for seasonal or year-round
programs,families are choosing to book single sessions based on their child's needs and
availability-often working directly with former collegiate or professional athletes in their local area.
Former athletes get a meaningful,flexible path forward.And the game itself?It gets to live on
in new forms.Further analysis of platform data shows which sports are driving the most interest in
private coaching.Basketball,soccer,baseball,and volleyball rank as the most-booked disciplines
on Athletes Untapped,consistent with broader youth sports participation trends in the U.S.
But the bigger takeaway?The way we think about skill-building is changing.Kids want coaches
they connect with.Parents want transparency and trust.And both want access-without the red
tape.Whether you're a parent looking for flexible training options or an ex-athlete figuring out your
next chapter,the message is clear:Coaching,like almost everything else,is going on-demand and
that will benefit more people.
32.What's a feature of the "platformization"of sports training?
A.It serves sports training to youth with Uber.
B.It offers families more advanced training equipment.
C.It lets families make a more detailed training schedule.
D.It provides families with access to high-quality coaching.
33.Why does the author mention the data from Athletes Untapped?
A.To prove traditional sports training is still popular.
B.To show the increasing difficulty in booking online training sessions.
C.To explain the growing trend of using digital platforms for sports coaching.
D.To stress digital tools can lead to better training results.

B.Appreciative.
C.Uncaring.
D.Unclear.

It's the end of the term,and that means final exams.36.However,here are some tips
for managing exam stress and avoiding burnout.
Do one thing at a time.
As an old saying goes,"If you try to chase two rabbits,they'll both escape."This is also
true for final projects or papers.A key part of managing exam stress is to finish one project,
subject,or paper at a time.37
OGet your priorities(优先事项)set.
You should focus on the most immediate task first,or one you know you'll need to spend more
time on.38.This is especially helpful when you're studying for exams,as setting your
priorities lets you devote more time and energy to subjects that you know you struggle with,or work
on meeting deadlines(截止日期)that you're closer to..
Budget(规划)your time.
Getting good grades and studying enough for your exams are important,but if that comes at the
expense of your sleep schedule or mental health,then you're shooting yourself in the foot before
you even reach the deadline.39.Though we must make sure to set aside time for studies,we
should find time to relax.
0401
This trick for managing exam stress goes hand in hand with the previous one.End-of-term
projects,papers and exams can feel huge when the deadline is approaching,the large amount of
work seeming impossible to do all at once.If you divide huge projects into smaller pieces,you'll
find your stress lowering and your productivity increasing.
A.It's not worth it
B.Improve your productivity
C.Break down your work
D.It's no secret that finals can be stressful
E.In this way you can manage your stress easily
F.Make sure you know what's more important
G.It can also let you set aside some "me time"
