A 15-year-old Indian girl, Kumari, who pedalled her injured father more than a thousand kilometres across India, has been invited to try out for the national cycling team.
In January, a motor-bike driver, Mohan Paswan, who made a living by carrying passengers in New Delhi, was injured in a traffic accident. After the accident, Paswan couldn't drive. So his daughter, Kumari took a train across the country to take care of him. But without income, Paswan could no longer afford the rent and they were running out of food. They decided to go home. With the last $20, the 15-year-old girl bought an old bicycle, and planned to take her father to their home village across India --- in a heroic, life-saving ride.
Kumari rode a bicycle with her father, sitting on the pillion(后座)and holding their belongings from Gurugram city, near New Delhi, to their village in the northeastern state of Bihar. They arrived home on May 16 after covering 1,200 kilometres (745 miles) in seven days.
The father and daughter's arduous journey on a second-hand bike bought with their remaining funds made headlines. It also caught the attention of the Cycling Federation of India, which offered Kumari the chance to try out for the country's team. "She covered this long and difficult distance in seven days with her father and some luggage too. I thought she has something in her endurance level. We can try her," chairman Onkar Singh told the journalist.
“She said she only wants to pursue her studies. We told her that we also take care of studies at our academies. Singh said the federation would test Kumari to see if she is suitable for competitive cycling.
There were also other people who praised Kumari's efforts, describing it as a "'beautiful model of endurance and love."
4. What made Kumari have to ride a bike back home?
A. That her father was injured.
B. That she could only afford a bike.
C. That her home village was far away.
D. That she wanted to join in the cycling race.
5. Which can best explain the underlined word "arduous " in paragraph 4?
A. dangerous B. lovely C. pleasant D. tough
6. Why did Onkar Singh invite Kumari to try out for the national cycling team?
A. Because she has extraordinary physical ability.
B. Because he didn't have anyone better than her.
C. Because she only wants to pursue her studies.
D. Because she is suitable for competitive cycling.
7. What can best describe Kumari according to the passage?
A. strong and caring B. positive and confident
C. warm-hearted and brave D. hard-working and beautiful
C
Everyone goes through it: standing in front of the mirror, looking at eye bags and pulling at folds of loose skin. Am I looking a bit rough? It’s part of the human condition to fear ageing, but among millennials (千禧一代), there seems to be a huge anxiety around growing older, coupled with an increasingly casual attitude towards cosmetic (整容的) treatments compared with previous generations.
In 2022, 27% of US patients receiving beauty treatments were 34 or younger, compared with 21% in 2015. The idea is to stop wrinkles (皱纹) before they start. So why are we all so eager to pretend we’re not growing older? There is a widespread and largely unnecessary fear of ageing. Being always online and scrolling (滚动) through the lives of others must also be a factor. It keeps us locked into a constant state of comparison. Then, the stream of bad news on war and the climate crisis is making us all depressed, anxious and nervous about dying.
But these treatments often don’t come with warnings; it’s up to the customer to research possible danger. Unsuccessful cosmetic procedures among young people are on the rise, with too many treatments taking place in illegal beauty salons and carried out by unqualified practitioners (从业人员). Last month, three women in the US got infected with HIV because the illegal medical clinic reused needles that should have been disposed of. It caused understandable alarm worldwide.
The pursuit of youth keeps many of us upset. And though I support that women have the freedom to choose cosmetic treatments, looking young is not a cure for all life’s troubles. I’m trying to reject the message that it’s wrong for women to look their true age, but the choice may mean a future ruined by self-doubt, expensive treatments or even regret. I think I’ll stick with the eye bags.
8. How does the author introduce the topic?
A. By telling a story. B. By describing a scene.
C. By asking a question. D. By giving an example.
9. What contribute to the increasing anxiety about ageing among the young?
A High prices in beauty salons. B. Difficulty in getting cosmetic treatments.
C. Limited access to news about world affairs. D. Constant comparison caused by social media.
10. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about?
A. Regular cosmetic procedures. B. Harmful results of infection.
C. Possible risks of cosmetic treatments. D. Unsuccessful cosmetic procedures.
11. What does the author want to express in the last paragraph?
A. It’s wise for women to accept their true age. B. Cosmetic treatments are generally worthwhile.
C. The desire to keep young will lead to regret. D. The importance of appearance is overlooked.
D
Imagine waking up one morning to find your smartphone missing. You can no longer get guided to work, order your coffee, or connect with friends. For most of us, it is a nightmare (噩梦). But it should not be exactly far-fetched.
Despite being more digitally connected than ever, we are lonelier and more anxious. Anxiety rates increased by 25% globally. Depression now affects over 280 million people worldwide. All of this is due to our growing dependence on social media and smart technologies designed to offer quick relief but often at the expense of deep, meaningful engagement, which may further cause our loss of something easy to be ignored.
Though these conveniences offer short-term relief, they may weaken our thinking skills. For example, GPS has undoubtedly changed how we travel. But a 2020 study found that frequent GPS users struggle more with self-guided navigation (航行). Over time, those who depended more on GPS showed a sharp loss in special memory and problem-solving skills. However, reducing dependence on these conveniences can lead to discomfort. In seeking comfort today, we might be trading away some discomfort.
That is the problem: the very discomfort we avoid is often what strengthens us. Viewing stress, a kind of discomfort, as a challenge rather than a threat leads to better results. Research shows that mild stress can improve adaptability (适应性). Neuroscience (神经科学) shows that neuroplasticity — the brain’s ability to form new connections — is improved through challenging experiences. This adaptability is important for developing resilience (抗逆力), a process fueled by both mental challenges and active effort.
But this doesn’t mean we should reject comfort entirely; it’s to balance it with intentional discomfort. Think of it as “microdosing hardship” — a series of small, manageable difficulties that keep our mental and emotional muscles strong, such as writing with a pen, or washing dishes by hand. These small acts are enough to reawaken the resilience we’ve buried under layers of ease. So, the next time you feel the pull of ease, pause. Ask yourself: Is this momentary comfort helping me grow or is it keeping me stuck? Choosing discomfort isn’t easy, but sometimes, it’s worth it.
12. What does the underlined word “far-fetched” in Paragraph I probably mean?
A. Possible to change. B. Certain to function.
C. Unlikely to be settled. D. Unable to be accepted.
13. What may digital conveniences cause according to the text?
A. The meaningful engagement. B. The fast but worthless relief.
C. The lack of necessary comfort. D. The loss of thinking ability.
14. Which is a real-life application of “microdosing hardship”?
A. Taking the stairs instead of the lift. B. Ordering take-out food after work.
C. Writing an email using voice-to-text. D. Exploring a new city by using GPS.
15. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. GPS: the invisible (隐形的) cost of convenience.
B Stress: the main cause of brain damage.
C. Discomfort: a hidden source of resilience.
D. Smartphones: barriers (障碍) to human progress.

How to Simplify Housework
It can be frustrating when you feel like you spend more time cleaning, tidying up, and taking care of your house and belongings than actually enjoying them. ____16____ That said, with the following tips, you can simplify your housework and have a clean home without devoting all of your time to cleaning.
Have less stuff. ____17____ You have to clean it, put it away, and search for it when needed. By reducing the number of belongings you have, you will decrease the number of items that require your attention. This also means less stuff to move to clean under and less stuff to clean around. Additionally, having less stuff contributes to a visually cleaner and tidier living space.
____18____ When each item has a fixed spot, it is easy to put things back where they belong. This significantly reduces the time spent searching for misplaced items.
Keep up with cleaning regularly. When you don’t keep up with chores at regular times, it takes more time and effort to clean your house. ____19____ For example, if you give your bathroom counters a quick wipe every day or two, it’ll only take a minute or two each time. And mess won’t have a chance to really build up in the meantime.
Embrace good enough. Everyone’s understanding of “good enough” may vary based on personal preferences. It’s advisable to decide what truly matters to you and what you are willing to let go of. Or what standards you are willing to relax to accept things as “good enough”. ____20____
A. Reset your house often.
B. Have an easy-to-access place for everything.
C. Everything you own requires some of your time.
D. Otherwise, you will be too busy to clean your house.
E Dealing with a never-ending to-do list is exhausting.
F. The goal is to complete essential household chores to a comfortable standard.
G. That is simply because more mess, dirt, dust, etc. has had a chance to build up.

In seventh and eighth grades I still ____21____ about forty pounds, which is too skinny. I was twelve years old and had been getting laughed at for my ____22____ looks for most of my life.
But I was funny. So the popular kids let me ____23____ with them, go to their parties and watch them have fun with each other. This, as you might imagine, did not help my ____24____ a great deal. I thought I was a total ____25____.
But one day I took a notebook and a pen when I went to Bolinas Beach with my ____26____. Like a writer, I wrote a(n) ____27____ of what I saw: “I walked to the lip of the water and let the tongue of the rushing water ____28____ my toes. A sand crab dug a hole a few inches from my foot and then disappeared into the damp sand…. With a sense of ____29____, I began my walk back, leaving the beauty of the moment behind.”
It goes on for quite a while. My father ____30____ me to show it to a teacher, and it ended up being ____31____ in a real textbook. This deeply ____32____ my teachers and parents and a few kids, even some of the ____33____ kids, who invited me to their parties even more often. This changed my life, showing me that true ____34____ comes from within, not just ____35____.

I was really starving when I stepped out of the city library after an entire afternoon buried in books. Then I smelt something delicious—the hot dog stand at the street corner.
“One hot dog, please!” I nearly rushed to the stand.
“OK, ready soon!” The vendor (摊主) replied cheerfully. As he handed me the hot dog, he grinned, “You deserve the best hot dog in the world!” I guessed that was the slogan for his little business, for the words were painted in cheerful yellow letters on his cart.
I couldn’t wait to take a bite. The warm bread, the chilli sauce and the juice in the sausage — it was the best thing in the world! Definitely at that time!
“Five dollars, young lady,” the vendor said, wiping his hands on his apron.
Hot dog in one hand, I reached for my wallet with the other. Just then, “Ouch!” a cry came from behind me. I turned back and found a woman in her 50’s struggling to pick herself up from the ground. Her grocery bag split open with oranges rolling in every direction.
Seeing this, I stuffed the rest of the hot dog into my mouth, picked up the oranges and put them back into her bag. “Are you okay?” I asked with concern.
“Thank you. I didn’t see the pole on the ground,” she breathed. Noticing her hand was wounded, I remembered the Band-Aid(创可贴)in my bag and dug it out. “Thank you so much for your kindness,” the woman said as I carefully applied it to her wound. Across the street, the bus I was about to take was pulling in. Waving a goodbye to the woman, I dashed to the bus stop and barely got aboard before the door closed.
As the bus pulled away, I saw the woman bought a hot dog from the same vendor. On the way, I was always wondering if she would be greeted with the same words, “You deserve the best hot dog in the world!” I was lost in it...
注意:
1.续写词数应为150个左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
But wait — had I forgotten something?
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
“Someone has paid for it,” the vendor smiled.

A 15-year-old Indian girl, Kumari, who pedalled her injured father more than a thousand kilometres across India, has been invited to try out for the national cycling team.
In January, a motor-bike driver, Mohan Paswan, who made a living by carrying passengers in New Delhi, was injured in a traffic accident. After the accident, Paswan couldn't drive. So his daughter, Kumari took a train across the country to take care of him. But without income, Paswan could no longer afford the rent and they were running out of food. They decided to go home. With the last $20, the 15-year-old girl bought an old bicycle, and planned to take her father to their home village across India --- in a heroic, life-saving ride.
Kumari rode a bicycle with her father, sitting on the pillion(后座)and holding their belongings from Gurugram city, near New Delhi, to their village in the northeastern state of Bihar. They arrived home on May 16 after covering 1,200 kilometres (745 miles) in seven days.
The father and daughter's arduous journey on a second-hand bike bought with their remaining funds made headlines. It also caught the attention of the Cycling Federation of India, which offered Kumari the chance to try out for the country's team. "She covered this long and difficult distance in seven days with her father and some luggage too. I thought she has something in her endurance level. We can try her," chairman Onkar Singh told the journalist.
“She said she only wants to pursue her studies. We told her that we also take care of studies at our academies. Singh said the federation would test Kumari to see if she is suitable for competitive cycling.
There were also other people who praised Kumari's efforts, describing it as a "'beautiful model of endurance and love."
4. What made Kumari have to ride a bike back home?
A. That her father was injured.
B. That she could only afford a bike.
C. That her home village was far away.
D. That she wanted to join in the cycling race.
5. Which can best explain the underlined word "arduous " in paragraph 4?
A. dangerous B. lovely C. pleasant D. tough
6. Why did Onkar Singh invite Kumari to try out for the national cycling team?
A. Because she has extraordinary physical ability.
B. Because he didn't have anyone better than her.
C. Because she only wants to pursue her studies.
D. Because she is suitable for competitive cycling.
7. What can best describe Kumari according to the passage?

【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“But without income, Paswan could no longer afford the rent and they were running out of food. They decided to go home. With the last $20, the 15-year-old girl bought an old bicycle, and planned to take her father to their home village across India --- in a heroic, life-saving ride.”(但没有收入,Paswan无力支付房租,他们的食物也快吃完了。他们决定回家。这个15岁的女孩用最后的20美元买了一辆旧自行车,打算带着她的父亲穿越印度回到他们的家乡——这是一次英勇的、拯救生命的旅程。)可知,Kumari不得不骑自行车回家,是因为家里剩的钱只能买得起一辆自行车了。故选B项。
【5题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词句上一段“Kumari rode a bicycle with her father, sitting on the pillion(后座)and holding their belongings from Gurugram city, near New Delhi, to their village in the northeastern state of Bihar. They arrived home on May 16 after covering 1,200 kilometres (745 miles) in seven days.”( Kumari带着她的父亲骑着自行车,父亲坐在后座上,拿着他们的东西从新德里附近的Gurugram市前往他们位于印度东北部Bihar的村庄。他们在7天内行驶了1200公里(745英里)后,于5月16日回到家中。)可知,Kumari他们的旅途是多么艰辛,从而推断划线词句“The father and daughter's arduous journey on a second-hand bike bought with their remaining funds made headlines.”(这对父女骑着一辆用剩下的钱买的二手自行车arduous旅行成了头条新闻。)中的arduous应该是“艰辛的”意思,选项中D“艰难的”与之意义最为接近。故选D项。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中Onkar Singh说的话“她带着父亲以及行李,用了七天的时间走完了这段又远又难的路程。我觉得她的耐力还算不错。”可知,Onkar Singh之所以邀请 Kumari 参加国家自行车队的选拔,是因为她有非凡的体能。故选A项。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文,尤其根据第二段中“With the last $20, the 15-year-old girl bought an old bicycle, and planned to take her father to their home village across India --- in a heroic, life-saving ride.”(这个15岁的女孩用最后的20美元买了一辆旧自行车,打算带着她的父亲穿越印度回到他们的家乡——这是一次英勇的、拯救生命的旅程。)以及第三段中“They arrived home on May 16 after covering 1,200 kilometres (745 miles) in seven days.”(他们在7天内行驶了1200公里(745英里)后,于5月16日回到家中。)可知,Kumari孝敬父亲有爱心,并且体力强壮完成了这么远的骑车旅行。故选A项。

Everyone goes through it: standing in front of the mirror, looking at eye bags and pulling at folds of loose skin. Am I looking a bit rough? It’s part of the human condition to fear ageing, but among millennials (千禧一代), there seems to be a huge anxiety around growing older, coupled with an increasingly casual attitude towards cosmetic (整容的) treatments compared with previous generations.
In 2022, 27% of US patients receiving beauty treatments were 34 or younger, compared with 21% in 2015. The idea is to stop wrinkles (皱纹) before they start. So why are we all so eager to pretend we’re not growing older? There is a widespread and largely unnecessary fear of ageing. Being always online and scrolling (滚动) through the lives of others must also be a factor. It keeps us locked into a constant state of comparison. Then, the stream of bad news on war and the climate crisis is making us all depressed, anxious and nervous about dying.
But these treatments often don’t come with warnings; it’s up to the customer to research possible danger. Unsuccessful cosmetic procedures among young people are on the rise, with too many treatments taking place in illegal beauty salons and carried out by unqualified practitioners (从业人员). Last month, three women in the US got infected with HIV because the illegal medical clinic reused needles that should have been disposed of. It caused understandable alarm worldwide.
The pursuit of youth keeps many of us upset. And though I support that women have the freedom to choose cosmetic treatments, looking young is not a cure for all life’s troubles. I’m trying to reject the message that it’s wrong for women to look their true age, but the choice may mean a future ruined by self-doubt, expensive treatments or even regret. I think I’ll stick with the eye bags.
8. How does the author introduce the topic?
A. By telling a story. B. By describing a scene.
C. By asking a question. D. By giving an example.
9. What contribute to the increasing anxiety about ageing among the young?
A. High prices in beauty salons. B. Difficulty in getting cosmetic treatments.
C. Limited access to news about world affairs. D. Constant comparison caused by social media.
10. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about?
A. Regular cosmetic procedures. B. Harmful results of infection.
C. Possible risks of cosmetic treatments. D. Unsuccessful cosmetic procedures.
11. What does the author want to express in the last paragraph?
A. It’s wise for women to accept their true age. B. Cosmetic treatments are generally worthwhile.
C. The desire to keep young will lead to regret. D. The importance of appearance is overlooked.
【答案】8. B 9. D 10. C 11. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。千禧一代对衰老焦虑,整容趋年轻化,其因包括对衰老的不必要恐惧等,且整容有风险,追求年轻并非解决所有问题的办法。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“Everyone goes through it: standing in front of the mirror, looking at eye bags and pulling at folds of loose skin. Am I looking a bit rough?(每个人都会经历这样的时刻:站在镜子前,看着眼袋,扯着松弛的皮肤。我看起来是不是有点憔悴了?)”可知,作者通过描述一个场景引入文章话题。故选B。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“There is a widespread and largely unnecessary fear of ageing. Being always online and scrolling (滚动) through the lives of others must also be a factor. It keeps us locked into a constant state of comparison. (对衰老的普遍且不必要的恐惧是其中一个原因。总是保持在线状态,浏览他人生活动态,这可能也是一个因素。这使我们一直处于持续的比较状态)”可知,社交媒体带来的持续比较现象导致年轻人对衰老问题的焦虑感日益加剧。故选D。
【10题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段“But these treatments often don’t come with warnings; it’s up to the customer to research possible danger. Unsuccessful cosmetic procedures among young people are on the rise, with too many treatments taking place in illegal beauty salons and carried out by unqualified practitioners (从业人员). Last month, three women in the US got infected with HIV because the illegal medical clinic reused needles that should have been disposed of. It caused understandable alarm worldwide.(但这些治疗通常都没有相关的警示说明;消费者需要自行了解可能存在的风险。年轻人中因美容手术失败而受伤的情况越来越多,其中很多手术是在非法美容院进行的,而且是由不具备资质的从业者操作的。上个月,美国有三名女性因非法医疗机构重复使用本应丢弃的针头而感染了艾滋病病毒。这一事件在全球范围内引起了极大的恐慌)”可知,第三段主要讲了美容手术可能存在的风险。故选C。
11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“The pursuit of youth keeps many of us upset. And though I support that women have the freedom to choose cosmetic treatments, looking young is not a cure for all life’s troubles. I’m trying to reject the message that it’s wrong for women to look their true age, but the choice may mean a future ruined by self-doubt, expensive treatments or even regret. I think I’ll stick with the eye bags.(追求青春让我们很多人感到烦恼。尽管我支持女性有权选择美容治疗,但保持年轻并不能解决生活中的所有问题。我试图摒弃那种认为女性不应该呈现真实年龄就是错误的观点,但这种选择可能会导致未来因自我怀疑、昂贵的治疗甚至后悔而变得糟糕。我想我还是会保留眼袋吧)”可推知,作者在最后一段想要表达的是女性接受自己的真实年龄是明智之举。故选A。
D
Imagine waking up one morning to find your smartphone missing. You can no longer get guided to work, order your coffee, or connect with friends. For most of us, it is a nightmare (噩梦). But it should not be exactly far-fetched.
Despite being more digitally connected than ever, we are lonelier and more anxious. Anxiety rates increased by 25% globally. Depression now affects over 280 million people worldwide. All of this is due to our growing dependence on social media and smart technologies designed to offer quick relief but often at the expense of deep, meaningful engagement, which may further cause our loss of something easy to be ignored.
Though these conveniences offer short-term relief, they may weaken our thinking skills. For example, GPS has undoubtedly changed how we travel. But a 2020 study found that frequent GPS users struggle more with self-guided navigation (航行). Over time, those who depended more on GPS showed a sharp loss in special memory and problem-solving skills. However, reducing dependence on these conveniences can lead to discomfort. In seeking comfort today, we might be trading away some discomfort.
That is the problem: the very discomfort we avoid is often what strengthens us. Viewing stress, a kind of discomfort, as a challenge rather than a threat leads to better results. Research shows that mild stress can improve adaptability (适应性). Neuroscience (神经科学) shows that neuroplasticity — the brain’s ability to form new connections — is improved through challenging experiences. This adaptability is important for developing resilience (抗逆力), a process fueled by both mental challenges and active effort.
But this doesn’t mean we should reject comfort entirely; it’s to balance it with intentional discomfort. Think of it as “microdosing hardship” — a series of small, manageable difficulties that keep our mental and emotional muscles strong, such as writing with a pen, or washing dishes by hand. These small acts are enough to reawaken the resilience we’ve buried under layers of ease. So, the next time you feel the pull of ease, pause. Ask yourself: Is this momentary comfort helping me grow or is it keeping me stuck? Choosing discomfort isn’t easy, but sometimes, it’s worth it.
12. What does the underlined word “far-fetched” in Paragraph I probably mean?
A. Possible to change. B. Certain to function.
C. Unlikely to be settled. D. Unable to be accepted.
13. What may digital conveniences cause according to the text?
A. The meaningful engagement. B. The fast but worthless relief.
C. The lack of necessary comfort. D. The loss of thinking ability.
14. Which is a real-life application of “microdosing hardship”?
A. Taking the stairs instead of the lift. B. Ordering take-out food after work.
C. Writing an email using voice-to-text. D. Exploring a new city by using GPS.
15. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. GPS: the invisible (隐形的) cost of convenience.
B. Stress: the main cause of brain damage.
C. Discomfort: a hidden source of resilience.
D. Smartphones: barriers (障碍) to human progress.
【答案】12. D 13. D 14. A 15. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章探讨了现代社会中人们对数字技术的过度依赖及其带来的负面影响,强调了适度不适的重要性,并提出了通过“微量困难”(microdosing hardship)来增强个人适应力和韧性。
【12题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第一段中“Imagine waking up one morning to find your smartphone missing. You can no longer get guided to work, order your coffee, or connect with friends. For most of us, it is a nightmare (噩梦). But it should not be exactly far-fetched.(想象一下,有一天早上醒来,发现你的智能手机不见了。你再也不能用它导航去上班,点咖啡,或者和朋友联系了。对我们大多数人来说,这是一场噩梦。但这并不_____)”可知,这里的语境是假设智能手机突然消失的情景虽然令人不安,但它不应该是不能被接受的。故划线词意思是“不能被接受”。故选D。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“All of this is due to our growing dependence on social media and smart technologies designed to offer quick relief but often at the expense of deep, meaningful engagement, which may further cause our loss of something easy to be ignored.(这一切都是因为我们越来越依赖社交媒体和智能技术,这些技术旨在提供快速的解脱,但往往以牺牲深刻而有意义的参与为代价,这可能会进一步导致我们失去一些容易被忽视的东西)”以及第三段“Though these conveniences offer short-term relief, they may weaken our thinking skills.(虽然这些便利提供了短期的解脱,但它们可能会削弱我们的思维能力)”可知,数字便利可能导致思考能力的下降。故选D。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Think of it as “microdosing hardship” — a series of small, manageable difficulties that keep our mental and emotional muscles strong, such as writing with a pen, or washing dishes by hand.(把它想象成“微量困难”——一系列小的、可以管理的困难,这些困难能让我们的心理和情绪肌肉保持强壮,比如用笔写字,或者用手洗碗)”可知,采取“微量困难”的实际行动是做一些小的、可以管理的困难的事情,A选项“爬楼梯而不是乘电梯”符合“微量困难”的含义。故选A。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,结合第二段中“Despite being more digitally connected than ever, we are lonelier and more anxious.(尽管我们比以往任何时候都更加数字化地联系在一起,但我们却更加孤独和焦虑)”、第三段“Though these conveniences offer short-term relief, they may weaken our thinking skills.(虽然这些便利提供了短期的解脱,但它们可能会削弱我们的思维能力)”以及第四段中“That is the problem: the very discomfort we avoid is often what strengthens us.(这就是问题所在:我们避免的不适往往正是让我们变得坚强的东西)”可知,文章主要讲述了现代生活中人们过于依赖智能手机和各种智能技术,造成了一些不良后果,如焦虑、抑郁、思维能力下降等。作者认为,我们应该适当减少对这些便利的依赖,通过面对一些“微小的不便”来增强自己的抗逆力,C选项“不适感:韧性的隐藏来源”最符合文章主旨。故选C。

It can be frustrating when you feel like you spend more time cleaning, tidying up, and taking care of your house and belongings than actually enjoying them. ____16____ That said, with the following tips, you can simplify your housework and have a clean home without devoting all of your time to cleaning.
Have less stuff. ____17____ You have to clean it, put it away, and search for it when needed. By reducing the number of belongings you have, you will decrease the number of items that require your attention. This also means less stuff to move to clean under and less stuff to clean around. Additionally, having less stuff contributes to a visually cleaner and tidier living space.
____18____ When each item has a fixed spot, it is easy to put things back where they belong. This significantly reduces the time spent searching for misplaced items.
Keep up with cleaning regularly. When you don’t keep up with chores at regular times, it takes more time and effort to clean your house. ____19____ For example, if you give your bathroom counters a quick wipe every day or two, it’ll only take a minute or two each time. And mess won’t have a chance to really build up in the meantime.
Embrace good enough. Everyone’s understanding of “good enough” may vary based on personal preferences. It’s advisable to decide what truly matters to you and what you are willing to let go of. Or what standards you are willing to relax to accept things as “good enough”. ____20____
A. Reset your house often.
B. Have an easy-to-access place for everything.
C. Everything you own requires some of your time.
D. Otherwise, you will be too busy to clean your house.
E. Dealing with a never-ending to-do list is exhausting.
F. The goal is to complete essential household chores to a comfortable standard.
G. That is simply because more mess, dirt, dust, etc. has had a chance to build up.
【答案】16. E 17. C 18. B 19. G 20. F
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了如何简化家务劳动。
【16题详解】
根据上文“It can be frustrating when you feel like you spend more time cleaning, tidying up, and taking care of your house and belongings than actually enjoying them.(当你感觉自己花在打扫、整理以及照料房屋和物品上的时间比真正享受这些东西的时间还要多时,这会让人感到很沮丧)”以及下文“That said, with the following tips, you can simplify your housework and have a clean home without devoting all of your time to cleaning.(话虽如此,但通过以下这些小贴士,你就能简化家务流程,拥有一个干净整洁的家,而无需将所有时间都花在打扫上)”可知,上文提到“花太多时间做家务而无法享受生活”,下文引出“简化家务的方法”,本句承接上文的负面感受,自然过渡到下文的解决方案。故E选项“处理永无止境的待办事项清单会让人感到疲惫”符合语境,故选E。
【17题详解】
根据上文“Have less stuff.(少些杂物)”以及下文“You have to clean it, put it away, and search for it when needed. By reducing the number of belongings you have, you will decrease the number of items that require your attention. This also means less stuff to move to clean under and less stuff to clean around. Additionally, having less stuff contributes to a visually cleaner and tidier living space.(你得对其进行清理、妥善存放,并在需要时查找它。通过减少你拥有的物品数量,你就能减少需要关注的物品数量。这意味着需要清理的空间会变小,周围也需要清洁的物品也会减少。此外,拥有更少的物品有助于让生活空间看起来更整洁、更干净)”可知,本段主题是“减少物品数量”,下文说明“物品需要清洁、收纳和寻找”,本句解释“少拥有物品”的原因,故C选项“否则,你将会忙得无暇打扫房子”符合语境,故选C。
【18题详解】
根据下文“When each item has a fixed spot, it is easy to put things back where they belong. This significantly reduces the time spent searching for misplaced items.(当每个物品都有固定的放置位置时,就能很容易地将物品放回原位。这大大减少了寻找丢失物品所花费的时间)”可知,下文提到“每件物品有固定位置,便于放回原处,减少寻找时间”,本句是本段核心观点,概括了“物品归位”的原则。故B选项“将所有物品放置在易于取用的地方”符合语境,故选B。
【19题详解】
根据上文“When you don’t keep up with chores at regular times, it takes more time and effort to clean your house.(如果不定期完成家务活,那么打扫房间就会耗费更多的时间和精力)”以及下文“For example, if you give your bathroom counters a quick wipe every day or two, it’ll only take a minute or two each time.(例如,如果你每隔一两天就对浴室的台面进行快速擦拭,每次只需花费一两分钟即可)”可知,本段强调“定期清洁”,上文提到“不按时做家务会花费更多时间”,本句解释原因,与下文“每天快速擦拭浴室台面可避免污渍堆积”的例子呼应。故G选项“这仅仅是因为更多的杂乱、污垢、灰尘等有足够的时间得以堆积”符合语境,故选G。
【20题详解】
根据上文“Embrace good enough. Everyone’s understanding of “good enough” may vary based on personal preferences. It’s advisable to decide what truly matters to you and what you are willing to let go of. Or what standards you are willing to relax to accept things as “good enough”.(接纳“足够好”即可。对于“足够好”这一概念,每个人的理解可能会因个人偏好而有所不同。建议你先明确哪些对你来说是真正重要的,哪些是可以舍弃的,或者哪些标准是你愿意放宽以将其视为“足够好”的)”可知,本段围绕“接受‘足够好’”展开,上文提到“确定对自己重要的事,放宽标准”,本句总结了这一理念,明确“足够好”的具体含义。故F选项“目标是将日常家务务务做得达到一个舒适的水平”符合语境,故选F。

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文主要讲述了人类探索太空的历程。
【36题详解】
考查介词。句意:人类一直在探索太空,希望能更多地了解宇宙。in the hope of为固定短语,意为“怀着……的希望”,所以此处填of。故填of。
【37题详解】
考查代词。句意:然而,一些科学家决心帮助人类实现他们探索太空的梦想。根据语境,这里指代humans,修饰名词dream,应用形容词性物主代词their。故填their。
【38题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:1961年,尤里·加加林成为第一个进入太空的人。当名词前有序数词修饰时,常用动词不定式作后置定语,the first person to do sth.表示“第一个做某事的人”,所以此处用to travel。故填to travel。
【39题详解】
考查动词时态。句意:八年后,阿波罗11号成功登陆月球,尼尔·阿姆斯特朗在那里迈出了“人类的一大步”。根据时间状语“Eight years later”以及语境可知,事情发生在过去,应用一般过去时,success的动词形式是succeed,其过去式为succeeded。故填succeeded。
【40题详解】
考查名词。句意:然而,太空探索面临着许多挑战。分析句子结构可知,此处为主语,应用名词形式exploration,意为“探索”,不可数。故填exploration。
【41题详解】
考查形容词。句意:为了解决这些问题,自20世纪50年代以来,科学家们开发了先进的设备。此处修饰名词“equipment”,应用形容词advanced,意为“先进的”。故填advanced。
【42题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:1998年建成的国际空间站,使宇航员能够在太空中生活和工作数月。此处为关系词引导的非限制性定语从句,先行词为The International Space Station,指物,关系词在从句中作主语,所以用关系代词which。故填which。
【43题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:如今,太空项目专注于寻找火星上的生命迹象。focus on doing sth.为固定搭配,意为“专注于做某事”,所以此处用finding。故填finding。
【44题详解】
考查动词语态和时态。句意:近年来,机器人被送去收集土壤样本。根据时间状语“in recent years”可知,此处强调过去发生的动作对现在造成的影响,应用现在完成时。Robots与send之间是被动关系,即“机器人被送去”,所以用现在完成时的被动语态,其结构为have/has been +过去分词,主语Robots是复数,助动词用have。故填have been sent。
【45题详解】
考查宾语从句。句意:虽然有些人质疑太空研究是否值得花费这些成本,但另一些人认为它能帮助我们更好地了解地球。此处为连接词引导的宾语从句,作question的宾语,根据语境,此处表示“是否”的意思,所以用whether或if引导该宾语从句。故填whether / if。

47. 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。
I was really starving when I stepped out of the city library after an entire afternoon buried in books. Then I smelt something delicious—the hot dog stand at the street corner.
“One hot dog, please!” I nearly rushed to the stand.
“OK, ready soon!” The vendor (摊主) replied cheerfully. As he handed me the hot dog, he grinned, “You deserve the best hot dog in the world!” I guessed that was the slogan for his little business, for the words were painted in cheerful yellow letters on his cart.
I couldn’t wait to take a bite. The warm bread, the chilli sauce and the juice in the sausage — it was the best thing in the world! Definitely at that time!
“Five dollars, young lady,” the vendor said, wiping his hands on his apron.
Hot dog in one hand, I reached for my wallet with the other. Just then, “Ouch!” a cry came from behind me. I turned back and found a woman in her 50’s struggling to pick herself up from the ground. Her grocery bag split open with oranges rolling in every direction.
Seeing this, I stuffed the rest of the hot dog into my mouth, picked up the oranges and put them back into her bag. “Are you okay?” I asked with concern.
“Thank you. I didn’t see the pole on the ground,” she breathed. Noticing her hand was wounded, I remembered the Band-Aid(创可贴)in my bag and dug it out. “Thank you so much for your kindness,” the woman said as I carefully applied it to her wound. Across the street, the bus I was about to take was pulling in. Waving a goodbye to the woman, I dashed to the bus stop and barely got aboard before the door closed.
As the bus pulled away, I saw the woman bought a hot dog from the same vendor. On the way, I was always wondering if she would be greeted with the same words, “You deserve the best hot dog in the world!” I was lost in it...

But wait — had I forgotten something?

“Someone has paid for it,” the vendor smiled.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 But wait — had I forgotten something? My heart suddenly sank as I realized I hadn’t paid the vendor! Frantically checking my wallet, I confirmed the five dollars were still there. The scene flashed back: I had dropped the wallet while helping the woman. The bus was already moving, and I could do nothing but watch the hot dog stand shrink in the distance, guilt overwhelming me.
“Someone has paid for it,” the vendor smiled. Puzzled, I followed his gaze to the woman I had helped earlier. She waved at me warmly from the street corner. The vendor explained, “She insisted on paying for you, saying kindness deserves kindness.” Tears welled up as I understood — her hot dog purchase wasn’t just for herself. The vendor’s cheerful slogan now carried profound meaning, weaving our small acts of goodwill into something truly “the best in the world.”
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,主要讲述了作者在图书馆学习一下午后,去街头热狗摊买热狗,在准备付钱时,帮助了一位摔倒的女士,结果忘记付钱就匆忙赶公交车离开。之后发现之前帮助的女士帮自己付了钱,从而体会到善良传递的温暖故事。
【详解】1.段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“等等——我是不是忘了什么?”可知,第一段可描写作者突然惊觉自己忘记支付热狗钱,慌乱检查钱包确认钱还在,回忆起掉钱包的原因是帮助女士时不慎掉落,此时公交车已开动,作者只能满怀愧疚地看着热狗摊远去。
②由第二段首句内容““有人付过钱了,”小贩笑着说。”可知,第二段可描写摊主告知作者有人已帮忙付款,作者疑惑地顺着摊主的目光看到之前帮助过的女士,摊主解释女士坚持为作者付款,认为善良应得到回报,作者深受感动,也对摊主 “你值得拥有世界上最好的热狗” 这句口号有了更深的感悟。
2.续写线索:意识到忘付热狗钱→回忆掉钱包经过→无奈随公交车离开心怀愧疚→摊主告知有人代付→发现代付者是被帮助的女士→摊主解释代付原因→作者体会到善良的传递和口号的深层含义
