第二部分 阅读(共两节,满分50分)
第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分,满分37.5分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
The morning announcement at school doesn’t have to be the “same old” routine. It can be a few minutes of engaging content. Let’s look at how schools around America are using morning announcements to inspire a greater sense of community.
The usual format of morning announcements:
“Good morning everyone!”
School pledge (誓言)
Thought for the day
A special message
Innovative Additions:
Motivational Start
Some schools adjust from the standard format to include the weather report and lunch menu. The thought for the day is sometimes replaced by a motivational quote, such as “Accept — then act”, from Eckhart Tolle’s The Power of Now. The practices benefit students most by helping them prepare for the day and inspiring positive attitudes.
Theme of the Day
Providing students with a new theme for the day is a creative approach. It can direct their energy towards a positive activity. For instance, “Help a Friend Tuesday”. Students can refer to multiple sources to draw up a list of words for each day of the week, and they are actively encouraged to follow through. No wonder it is their favorite.
Guest of the Day
A five-star★★★★★recommendation from school staff goes to “guest of the day”, someone who has a useful, relevant message to deliver to students. That person could be the:
※ school nurse who offers health tips;
※ art teacher with some handy pointers;
※ librarian who recommends 2-3 classics.
Student Appreciation
Morning announcements are also used to draw attention to exceptional work by students, whether it is an essay, artwork or poem. Teachers are tasked with displaying it on a noticeboard. That student’s name is read out during the announcement. It serves as a motivator to work hard and the concept encourages healthy competition among students.
21. Where is this text probably taken from?
A. An academic paper. B. A course design.
C An activity guide. D. A morning announcement.
22. Which of the following is the most popular among students?
A. Motivational Start. B. Theme of the Day.
C. Guest of the Day. D. Student Appreciation.
23. What is Student Appreciation aimed at?
A. Publicizing sports competitions. B. Encouraging the spirit of hard work.
C. Safeguarding mental health. D. Enhancing communication skills.
【答案】21. C 22. B 23. B
【解析】

B
For years, I had the mindset that if I wasn’t wearing my Fitbit, did the workout really happen? Answer: No. Not only did I rely on my Fitbit to track my exercises, but I chose to invest in this specific SENSE model because of its sleep tracking tech — a must-have for my sleep struggles. For a long time, I refused to remove it from my wrist. But after leaving my beloved little tracker on my nightstand one day, I took it as an opportunity for an experiment: What if I put the e-watch on the shelf for an entire week?
Before and during this experiment, I was completing Sculpt It at-home program four times a week. So while the structure and schedule of my training stayed the same, my perception of how much effort I contributed to the workout changed — I actually became more focused.
Without my e-watch, I didn’t take my 15-second “breaks” to double-check my heart zones. I even felt less stressed with no daily notifications on my Stress Management Scores. While I continued to struggle with staying asleep throughout the night, without the reminders of how my sleep was scoring, I wasn’t beating myself up for not hitting the average hours of deep sleep.
Physically, nothing changed. Truthfully, I didn’t expect it to. I looked the exact same before and after the week-long experiment. Visual body changes will usually take months to notice, and most definitely not one week.
Will I go back to using my Fitbit? Without a doubt, yes. But I no longer feel this inescapable need to wear it 24/7. The constant need to check my e-watch for calories burned, hours slept or steps walked was an unhealthy obsession (痴迷) I was blind to previously. I apply the lessons I learned while disconnecting and just let myself breathe. If I realize I forgot my e-watch while I’m on my way to the gym? Guess what? The workout still counts.
24. What caused the author to conduct the Fitbit experiment?
A. A volunteering opportunity. B. A fitness challenge.
C. An accidental occurrence. D. A routine change.
25. How did the author feel about his sleep during the experiment?
A. Upset about irregular sleep schedules.
B. Satisfied with deep sleep hours.
C. Constantly stressed about sleep scores.
D. Less anxious about sleep quality.
26. What does the author imply by saying “The workout still counts” in the last paragraph?
A. The e-watch remains an efficient tool. B. Workout proves essential for wellness.
C. Workout value isn’t device-determined. D. Digital dependence is a deep-rooted habit.
27. What is a suitable title for the text?
A. Fitbit Break: My Week of Freedom B. Gym Training: A Love-Hate Story
C. Sweat for Strength: A Personal Experiment D. Wearable Tech: The Next Big Thing
【答案】24. C 25. D 26. C 27. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者通过一周不佩戴Fitbit的实验,意识到过度依赖数据追踪会引发焦虑,并学会重新关注运动本身的意义而非设备反馈。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“But after leaving my beloved little tracker on my nightstand one day, I took it as an opportunity for an experiment: What if I put the e-watch on the shelf for an entire week? (但那天我把心爱的小追踪器忘在床头柜上后,便将此视为一个实验契机:要是整整一周都不戴这款智能手表会怎样)”可知,实验的起因是作者偶然忘记佩戴Fitbit。故选C项。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“While I continued to struggle with staying asleep throughout the night, without the reminders of how my sleep was scoring, I wasn’t beating myself up for not hitting the average hours of deep sleep. (尽管我依然整夜辗转难眠,但没有了睡眠评分提醒,我不再为达不到深度睡眠的标准时长而苛责自己)”可知,实验期间,作者因不再收到睡眠数据反馈,反而减少了对睡眠质量的焦虑。故选D项。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“The constant need to check my e-watch for calories burned, hours slept or steps walked was an unhealthy obsession (痴迷) I was blind to previously. I apply the lessons I learned while disconnecting and just let myself breathe. If I realize I forgot my e-watch while I’m on my way to the gym? Guess what? The workout still counts. (以前我总忍不住查看智能手表:卡路里消耗、睡眠时长、行走步数,这种执念近乎病态,而当时的我却浑然不觉。如今我正学着践行“断联”的领悟,给自己喘息的空间。就算去健身房的路上发现忘戴表了?你猜怎么着?运动成效依然作数)”可推知,作者强调锻炼的价值不应依赖设备记录,其意义独立于数据追踪。故选C项。
【27题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是第一段中“What if I put the e-watch on the shelf for an entire week (要是整整一周都不戴这款智能手表会怎样)”和最后一段中“But I no longer feel this inescapable need to wear it 24/7. (但现在,我不再觉得必须7天24小时都戴着它不可了)”可知,文章主要讲述了作者通过一周不佩戴Fitbit的实验,意识到过度依赖数据追踪会引发焦虑,并学会重新关注运动本身的意义而非设备反馈。因此,A项“Fitbit暂停记:我的自由周”突出了“暂时脱离Fitbit”的核心主题及“身心解放”的体验。故选A项。
C
Several species have fascinated observers with their abilities to skip side-to-side on the water as if it were land. One such species native to Virginia is the cricket frog. Jake Socha, a professor at Virginia Tech, leads a research team that studies the cricket frog’s unique ability to “skitter”, another name for jumping multiple times in succession.
“Skittering is not actually a well-defined word for this behavior — one naturalist used it in 1949, and since then, it’s been used for this type of motion,” Socha says. “Part of this research is not only to study this behavior in cricket frogs, but to try and give ‘skittering’ a more precise, scientific definition.”
The popular opinion holds that cricket frogs freely jump about with only their feet penetrating the water’s surface. However, Socha’s recordings showed a different picture. Researchers found that the frogs actually sink with each jump.
The misunderstanding that cricket frogs have previously appeared to skip across the water when viewed by eye is largely because of their rapid motion. The team used a 20-gallon glass tank and released the frogs into it. High speed cameras were positioned from the side of the glass tank to document the action above and below the water’ s surface. As the frogs skipped, the team captured (拍摄) their getaway. Their movements might more accurately be called “porpoising” after the movement that a dolphin uses: jumping into the air from beneath the surface of the water. By observing them in slow motion, team members broke each jump cycle down to:
●Takeoff, from an underwater position
●Aerial, or time in the air following a jump
●Re-entry, back into the water
●Recovery, resetting for the next jump
Understanding skittering is an important discovery for biology, but it holds other keys as well. This discovery provides a new physical basis for the future of bio-inspired robotics, where devices can draw inspiration from nature to use well-tested methods that frogs have been using for centuries.
28. What is the primary goal of Jake Socha’ s research about cricket frogs?
A. To define their moving routes.
B. To confirm their documented behavior.
C. To better interpret their jumps.
D. To create bio-inspired robots like them.
29. What does the underlined word “penetrating” in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Resting upon. B. Sliding over. C. Sticking on. D. Cutting through.
30. What do researchers focus on when filming cricket frogs?
A. Categorizing their risky behaviors. B. Measuring their quick speed.
C. Observing the height of their jumps. D. Tracking their sinking actions.
31. What does the last paragraph mainly discuss concerning the research?
A. Its broader significance. B. Its key challenges.
C. Its potential limitations. D. Its theoretical sources.
【答案】28. C 29. D 30. D 31. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍弗吉尼亚理工大学的研究团队对蟋蟀蛙独特跳跃行为“skittering”的研究及发现。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Part of this research is not only to study this behavior in cricket frogs, but to try and give ‘skittering’ a more precise, scientific definition.(这项研究的一部分不仅是研究蟋蟀蛙的这种行为,还试图给‘skittering’一个更精确、科学的定义。)”以及第三段中研究发现蟋蟀蛙每次跳跃都会下沉,纠正了之前的普遍观点可知,Jake Socha研究的主要目标是更好地解释蟋蟀蛙的跳跃行为。故选C项。
【29题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段中的“The popular opinion holds that cricket frogs freely jump about with only their feet penetrating the water’s surface. However, Socha’s recordings showed a different picture. Researchers found that the frogs actually sink with each jump.(普遍观点认为,蟋蟀蛙自由跳跃,只有脚penetrating水面。然而,Socha的记录显示了不同的情况。研究人员发现,这些青蛙每次跳跃实际上都会下沉。)”可知,普遍观点认为蟋蟀蛙的脚只是接触水面,而研究发现它们会下沉,因此“penetrating”应意为“穿透”,与“Cutting through”意思相近。故选D项。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的“However, Socha’s recordings showed a different picture. Researchers found that the frogs actually sink with each jump.(然而,Socha的记录显示了不同的情况。研究人员发现,这些青蛙每次跳跃实际上都会下沉。)”以及第四段中对拍摄过程和跳跃周期的描述可知,研究人员拍摄蟋蟀蛙时,重点在于追踪它们的下沉动作。故选D项。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段中的“Understanding skittering is an important discovery for biology, but it holds other keys as well. This discovery provides a new physical basis for the future of bio-inspired robotics...(理解‘skittering’对生物学来说是一个重要发现,但它还有其他意义。这一发现为未来的仿生机器人技术提供了新的物理基础……)”可知,该段主要讨论了这项研究更广泛的意义。故选A项。
D
When mass commercialism and art mix, artistic integrity often suffers. I acknowledge artists need enough money to live on. Nevertheless, I don’t think art should be about trying to make as much money as humanly possible, and I can’t imagine ever being convinced otherwise.
Visual arts have often been a place for artists who stay true to their art to express themselves. Van Gogh sold one painting during his lifetime and is now considered one of the best artists ever to have lived. Although his lack of commercial success was a source of suffering during his lifetime, it was probably also a cause of his uniqueness. Van Gogh did not have artistic agents giving him market feedback, and he didn’t bend to market demands in order to sell it.
The danger of pieces of art being sold for unreasonable amounts of money is that artists turn their works into brands. When art accumulates (积聚) that much commercial value, it starts being seen in the same way as a really flashy car that is too expensive to risk driving. A piece of art gets bought by a millionaire, and to accumulate value and minimize the risk of damage, he keeps it in his private museum. Ultimately, few people get the chance to appreciate it, especially since art museums can’t keep up with rising art prices. Even galleries as big as Tate Britain only have acquisition budgets of £5 million, and with the upcoming government’ s cuts to the arts, this purchasing power will decrease continuously.
There’s a reason why Mark Rothko turned down the commission (委托制作) from the Four Seasons Restaurant. Rothko recognized how damaging the idea of making art purely for a paycheck is. He did not want his paintings to be merely used as decorative items in a luxurious restaurant, but hoped that they could be placed in a more suitable place where people could truly feel the spiritual power of his works.
32. How does the author find the commercialization of art?
A. Profitable. B. Destructive. C. Unavoidable. D. Productive.
33. What does the author intend to do by mentioning Van Gogh?
A. Present a story. B. Explain a viewpoint.
C. Criticize a trend. D. Introduce an artist.
34. What consequence does high-priced art bring?
A. It degrades the quality of art. B. It facilitates massive copying.
C. It boosts art galleries’ budget. D. It restricts public enjoyment.
35. Which of the following would Mark Rothko agree on?
A. Art ought to maintain its purity.
B. Art may exist in every little corner.
C. Artworks often goes unrecognized.
D. Artworks are no more than decorations.
【答案】32. B 33. B 34. D 35. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。主要探讨艺术商业化对艺术完整性的破坏及相关案例和影响。
【32题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中的“When mass commercialism and art mix, artistic integrity often suffers.(当大规模的商业主义与艺术混合在一起时,艺术的完整性往往会受到损害。)”可知,作者认为艺术商业化具有破坏性。故选B项。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Van Gogh sold one painting during his lifetime and is now considered one of the best artists ever to have lived. Although his lack of commercial success was a source of suffering during his lifetime, it was probably also a cause of his uniqueness. Van Gogh did not have artistic agents giving him market feedback, and he didn’t bend to market demands in order to sell it.(梵高一生只卖出过一幅画,现在却被认为是有史以来最伟大的艺术家之一。尽管他在生前缺乏商业上的成功是痛苦的根源,但这也可能是他独特性的原因之一。梵高没有艺术经纪人给他人市场反馈,他也没有为了销售而屈从于市场需求。)”可知,作者提及梵高是为了说明不迎合市场需求能保持艺术的独特性,以此解释自己关于艺术不应过度商业化的观点。故选B项。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的“A piece of art gets bought by a millionaire, and to accumulate value and minimize the risk of damage, he keeps it in his private museum. Ultimately, few people get the chance to appreciate it, especially since art museums can’t keep up with rising art prices.(一件艺术品被百万富翁买下,为了增值和将损坏风险降到最低,他把它放在自己的私人博物馆里。最终,很少有人有机会欣赏它,尤其是因为艺术博物馆跟不上不断上涨的艺术品价格。)”可知,高价艺术品会限制公众对其的欣赏。故选D项。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Rothko recognized how damaging the idea of making art purely for a paycheck is. He did not want his paintings to be merely used as decorative items in a luxurious restaurant, but hoped that they could be placed in a more suitable place where people could truly feel the spiritual power of his works.(罗斯科认识到,纯粹为了薪水而创作艺术的想法是多么有害。他不希望自己的画作仅仅被用作豪华餐厅的装饰品,而是希望它们能被放置在一个更合适的地方,让人们能真正感受到他作品的精神力量。)”可推断,马克·罗斯科认为艺术应该保持其纯粹性,不应沦为商业工具或装饰。故选A项。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了培养自尊心的五个实用策略。
【36题详解】
前文“As Robert Reasoner, a self-esteem expert, emphasizes: “Healthy self-esteem empowers individuals to make constructive life choices.” (正如自尊心研究专家Robert Reasoner强调的那样:“健康的自尊能让人做出具有建设性的人生选择。”)”介绍专家观点,指出健康的自尊使人做出建设性选择,后文“The following strategies will help boost self-esteem. (以下策略将有助于提升自尊心)”引出提升自尊心的策略,此处应说明选择延伸而来的影响,因此D项“In turn, these choices promote personal growth. (这些选择反过来会促进个人成长)”符合语境,承前启后,其中的these choices指代前文的constructive life choices。故选D。
【37题详解】
前文“List your personal goals. These can be fairly simple, such as organizing your bedroom, or you can set bigger objectives, such as going back to college to earn your degree. (列出你的个人目标。这些目标可以非常简单,比如整理卧室;也可以设定更宏大的目标,比如重返大学攻读学位)”建议列出目标,指出简单或宏达都可以,后文“For example, you might note down, “I’ll set up boxes for things I plan to donate, sell or recycle.” or “I’ll contact the college for an application.” (例如,你可以这样记录:“我将准备几个箱子,分别存放打算捐赠、转卖或回收的物品”,或者“我会联系学校索要申请表”)”举例设立捐赠箱、联系学校等目标记录法,此处应补充目标清单的执行方法,因此E项“Also write down how you plan to achieve your goals. (同时写下你计划如何实现这些目标)”符合语境,承接前文,后文是对其例证。故选E。
【38题详解】
前文“Read books and news articles, keep track of current affairs and discuss issues with your friends and family. (阅读书籍和新闻文章,关注时事动态,并与亲友讨论热点话题)”给出第一个自我教育的方法,后文“People who take care of their minds and have a thirst for knowledge often feel proud of themselves and their achievements. (那些注重心智修养且渴求知识的人,往往会对自身及取得的成就感到自豪)”点明自我教育对建设自尊心的益处,此处需继续给出自我教育的策略,因此A项“Engage in study groups. (参与学习小组)”符合语境,和前文是并列关系,引出后文。故选A。
【39题详解】
前文“Each day, give yourself words of support. (每天给自己一些鼓励的话语)”建议每天鼓励自己,后文“Yet, over time it can become second nature if you take the practice seriously. (然而,只要认真践行,久而久之这种行为就会成为你的第二天性)”含有转折,指出长期的坚持有助于内化该行为,此处应说明鼓励自己存在的一些困难,因此C项“You might feel uncomfortable doing so at first. (一开始你可能会感到不适)”符合语境,承接前文,和后文构成转折。故选C。
【40题详解】
后文“Buy yourself a new outfit or take yourself out to dinner if you’ve reached a goal or even attempted to reach a goal. Rewarding yourself also can be as simple as telling yourself you’ve done a good job and setting new goals to achieve. (达成目标时,哪怕只是尝试过,不妨给自己买套新衣服或吃顿大餐。奖励自己也可以很简单——只需对自己说声“做得好”,然后设定新的目标继续前进)”主要建议在达成目标时给予自己奖励,激励自己前进,空处位于段首,是段落主旨句,应建议奖励自己的成就,且需和其他段首句一样使用祈使句的形式,因此F项“Reward yourself for your accomplishments — big and small. (奖励自己的成就——无论大小)”符合语境,契合后文内容。故选F。

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。
A few years ago, my gym workouts were a joke — 5 minutes on the treadmill (跑步机), awkwardly struggling with weights, then escaping. Exercise just wasn’t my idea of fun.
Everything changed when I was dealing with some stuff in my personal life and I needed an outlet for my depression. I had heard exercise was a good way to relieve stress and improve my mood. I knew if I was going to be successful this time around, I needed to be in a group setting. I definitely needed an accountability partner, someone who would keep me going even when I wanted to skip a session.
That was how I met Adria, the owner of a local training center who became my coach and friend. She never let me unmotivated — when I made excuses, she offered other time options; if I skipped, she’d text, “What’s your workout plan this week?” Her persistence paid off. Before long, I was seeing changes in my body, emotions and attitude. I began to look forward to going to the gym. It felt like the gym was becoming an essential part of my life.
One day, exhausted from running her gym alone, Adria sighed, “I wish you’d get certified as a group fitness instructor because you’re the only one I’d trust with the keys.” I laughed it off, knowing that was impossible. Me? A trainer?
Although she never mentioned it again, I couldn’t get her comment out of my head. It was so encouraging that she thought that much of me — and trusted me — but there was no way! I was completely out of study habits for years. How could I genuinely commit myself to studying for the fitness instructor qualification?
For days following our conversation, every time the thought popped into my head, I heard the words “No way!” But for some reason I couldn’t stop thinking about it. After much internal debate, I realized that I didn’t want to miss this opportunity. Neither did I intend to betray(辜负)Adria’s trust.
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。
Then I signed up for the certification course.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The test day came, and it was no joke.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
Then I signed up for the certification course. My journey began with researching the requirements to be a group fitness instructor. I learned it would take three to six months of reading text, analyzing charts, and watching videos, as well as online activities. Then, I devoted every minute to searching for related resources and committed myself to reading texts, which challenged me a lot. There were many times I wanted to give up for self-doubt, but the thought of Adria’s unwavering trust and persistence made me follow through.
The test day came, and it was no joke. A mix of nervousness and excitement rushed through me as I entered the exam room. Palms slightly sweaty, I carefully answered every question. I turned in my exam paper with a single minute to spare. A few days later, I received the certificate. Yeah! I dashed to Adria’s training center, certificate in hand, eager to share my achievement. “This is all thanks to your faith in me,” I whispered through our embrace. I was also proud of myself. Self-doubt whispers “you can’t”, encouragement says “try again”, but only self-belief can finally declare “I did”.
【解析】

A
The morning announcement at school doesn’t have to be the “same old” routine. It can be a few minutes of engaging content. Let’s look at how schools around America are using morning announcements to inspire a greater sense of community.
The usual format of morning announcements:
“Good morning everyone!”
School pledge (誓言)
Thought for the day
A special message
Innovative Additions:
Motivational Start
Some schools adjust from the standard format to include the weather report and lunch menu. The thought for the day is sometimes replaced by a motivational quote, such as “Accept — then act”, from Eckhart Tolle’s The Power of Now. The practices benefit students most by helping them prepare for the day and inspiring positive attitudes.
Theme of the Day
Providing students with a new theme for the day is a creative approach. It can direct their energy towards a positive activity. For instance, “Help a Friend Tuesday”. Students can refer to multiple sources to draw up a list of words for each day of the week, and they are actively encouraged to follow through. No wonder it is their favorite.
Guest of the Day
A five-star★★★★★recommendation from school staff goes to “guest of the day”, someone who has a useful, relevant message to deliver to students. That person could be the:
※ school nurse who offers health tips;
※ art teacher with some handy pointers;
※ librarian who recommends 2-3 classics.
Student Appreciation
Morning announcements are also used to draw attention to exceptional work by students, whether it is an essay, artwork or poem. Teachers are tasked with displaying it on a noticeboard. That student’s name is read out during the announcement. It serves as a motivator to work hard and the concept encourages healthy competition among students.
21. Where is this text probably taken from?
A. An academic paper. B. A course design.
C. An activity guide. D. A morning announcement.
22. Which of the following is the most popular among students?
A. Motivational Start. B. Theme of the Day.
C. Guest of the Day. D. Student Appreciation.
23. What is Student Appreciation aimed at?
A. Publicizing sports competitions. B. Encouraging the spirit of hard work.
C. Safeguarding mental health. D. Enhancing communication skills.
B
For years, I had the mindset that if I wasn’t wearing my Fitbit, did the workout really happen? Answer: No. Not only did I rely on my Fitbit to track my exercises, but I chose to invest in this specific SENSE model because of its sleep tracking tech — a must-have for my sleep struggles. For a long time, I refused to remove it from my wrist. But after leaving my beloved little tracker on my nightstand one day, I took it as an opportunity for an experiment: What if I put the e-watch on the shelf for an entire week?
Before and during this experiment, I was completing Sculpt It at-home program four times a week. So while the structure and schedule of my training stayed the same, my perception of how much effort I contributed to the workout changed — I actually became more focused.
Without my e-watch, I didn’t take my 15-second “breaks” to double-check my heart zones. I even felt less stressed with no daily notifications on my Stress Management Scores. While I continued to struggle with staying asleep throughout the night, without the reminders of how my sleep was scoring, I wasn’t beating myself up for not hitting the average hours of deep sleep.
Physically, nothing changed. Truthfully, I didn’t expect it to. I looked the exact same before and after the week-long experiment. Visual body changes will usually take months to notice, and most definitely not one week.
Will I go back to using my Fitbit? Without a doubt, yes. But I no longer feel this inescapable need to wear it 24/7. The constant need to check my e-watch for calories burned, hours slept or steps walked was an unhealthy obsession (痴迷) I was blind to previously. I apply the lessons I learned while disconnecting and just let myself breathe. If I realize I forgot my e-watch while I’m on my way to the gym? Guess what? The workout still counts.
24. What caused the author to conduct the Fitbit experiment?
A A volunteering opportunity. B. A fitness challenge.
C. An accidental occurrence. D. A routine change.
25. How did the author feel about his sleep during the experiment?
A. Upset about irregular sleep schedules.
B. Satisfied with deep sleep hours.
C. Constantly stressed about sleep scores.
D. Less anxious about sleep quality.
26. What does the author imply by saying “The workout still counts” in the last paragraph?
A. The e-watch remains an efficient tool. B. Workout proves essential for wellness.
C. Workout value isn’t device-determined. D. Digital dependence is a deep-rooted habit.
27. What is a suitable title for the text?
A. Fitbit Break: My Week of Freedom B. Gym Training: A Love-Hate Story
C. Sweat for Strength: A Personal Experiment D. Wearable Tech: The Next Big Thing
C
Several species have fascinated observers with their abilities to skip side-to-side on the water as if it were land. One such species native to Virginia is the cricket frog. Jake Socha, a professor at Virginia Tech, leads a research team that studies the cricket frog’s unique ability to “skitter”, another name for jumping multiple times in succession.
“Skittering is not actually a well-defined word for this behavior — one naturalist used it in 1949, and since then, it’s been used for this type of motion,” Socha says. “Part of this research is not only to study this behavior in cricket frogs, but to try and give ‘skittering’ a more precise, scientific definition.”
The popular opinion holds that cricket frogs freely jump about with only their feet penetrating the water’s surface. However, Socha’s recordings showed a different picture. Researchers found that the frogs actually sink with each jump.
The misunderstanding that cricket frogs have previously appeared to skip across the water when viewed by eye is largely because of their rapid motion. The team used a 20-gallon glass tank and released the frogs into it. High speed cameras were positioned from the side of the glass tank to document the action above and below the water’ s surface. As the frogs skipped, the team captured (拍摄) their getaway. Their movements might more accurately be called “porpoising” after the movement that a dolphin uses: jumping into the air from beneath the surface of the water. By observing them in slow motion, team members broke each jump cycle down to:
●Takeoff, from an underwater position
●Aerial, or time in the air following a jump
●Re-entry, back into the water
●Recovery, resetting for the next jump
Understanding skittering is an important discovery for biology, but it holds other keys as well. This discovery provides a new physical basis for the future of bio-inspired robotics, where devices can draw inspiration from nature to use well-tested methods that frogs have been using for centuries.
28. What is the primary goal of Jake Socha’ s research about cricket frogs?
A. To define their moving routes.
B. To confirm their documented behavior.
C. To better interpret their jumps.
D. To create bio-inspired robots like them.
29. What does the underlined word “penetrating” in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Resting upon. B. Sliding over. C. Sticking on. D. Cutting through.
30. What do researchers focus on when filming cricket frogs?
A. Categorizing their risky behaviors. B. Measuring their quick speed.
C. Observing the height of their jumps. D. Tracking their sinking actions.
31. What does the last paragraph mainly discuss concerning the research?
A. Its broader significance. B. Its key challenges.
C. Its potential limitations. D. Its theoretical sources.
D
When mass commercialism and art mix, artistic integrity often suffers. I acknowledge artists need enough money to live on. Nevertheless, I don’t think art should be about trying to make as much money as humanly possible, and I can’t imagine ever being convinced otherwise.
Visual arts have often been a place for artists who stay true to their art to express themselves. Van Gogh sold one painting during his lifetime and is now considered one of the best artists ever to have lived. Although his lack of commercial success was a source of suffering during his lifetime, it was probably also a cause of his uniqueness. Van Gogh did not have artistic agents giving him market feedback, and he didn’t bend to market demands in order to sell it.
The danger of pieces of art being sold for unreasonable amounts of money is that artists turn their works into brands. When art accumulates (积聚) that much commercial value, it starts being seen in the same way as a really flashy car that is too expensive to risk driving. A piece of art gets bought by a millionaire, and to accumulate value and minimize the risk of damage, he keeps it in his private museum. Ultimately, few people get the chance to appreciate it, especially since art museums can’t keep up with rising art prices. Even galleries as big as Tate Britain only have acquisition budgets of £5 million, and with the upcoming government’ s cuts to the arts, this purchasing power will decrease continuously.
There’s a reason why Mark Rothko turned down the commission (委托制作) from the Four Seasons Restaurant. Rothko recognized how damaging the idea of making art purely for a paycheck is. He did not want his paintings to be merely used as decorative items in a luxurious restaurant, but hoped that they could be placed in a more suitable place where people could truly feel the spiritual power of his works.
32. How does the author find the commercialization of art?
A. Profitable. B. Destructive. C. Unavoidable. D. Productive.
33. What does the author intend to do by mentioning Van Gogh?
A. Present a story. B. Explain a viewpoint.
C. Criticize a trend. D. Introduce an artist.
34. What consequence does high-priced art bring?
A. It degrades the quality of art. B. It facilitates massive copying.
C. It boosts art galleries’ budget. D. It restricts public enjoyment.
35. Which of the following would Mark Rothko agree on?
A. Art ought to maintain its purity.
B. Art may exist in every little corner.
C. Artworks often goes unrecognized.
D. Artworks are no more than decorations.

A few years ago, my gym workouts were a joke — 5 minutes on the treadmill (跑步机), awkwardly struggling with weights, then escaping. Exercise just wasn’t my idea of fun.
Everything changed when I was dealing with some stuff in my personal life and I needed an outlet for my depression. I had heard exercise was a good way to relieve stress and improve my mood. I knew if I was going to be successful this time around, I needed to be in a group setting. I definitely needed an accountability partner, someone who would keep me going even when I wanted to skip a session.
That was how I met Adria, the owner of a local training center who became my coach and friend. She never let me unmotivated — when I made excuses, she offered other time options; if I skipped, she’d text, “What’s your workout plan this week?” Her persistence paid off. Before long, I was seeing changes in my body, emotions and attitude. I began to look forward to going to the gym. It felt like the gym was becoming an essential part of my life.
One day, exhausted from running her gym alone, Adria sighed, “I wish you’d get certified as a group fitness instructor because you’re the only one I’d trust with the keys.” I laughed it off, knowing that was impossible. Me? A trainer?
Although she never mentioned it again, I couldn’t get her comment out of my head. It was so encouraging that she thought that much of me — and trusted me — but there was no way! I was completely out of study habits for years. How could I genuinely commit myself to studying for the fitness instructor qualification?
For days following our conversation, every time the thought popped into my head, I heard the words “No way!” But for some reason I couldn’t stop thinking about it. After much internal debate, I realized that I didn’t want to miss this opportunity. Neither did I intend to betray(辜负)Adria’s trust.
注意:
(1)续写词数应为150个左右;
(2)请按如下格式在答题卡相应位置作答。
Then I signed up for the certification course.
