(随着更多的人了解到你的服务，注册人数将会增加，从而推动你的业务向前发展)”可知，共同享有的相同益处是扩大ISEPS的覆盖范围。故选A。 【23题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“If you offer international student exchange program service (ISEPS), there’s no better moment than now to promote it. Here are some tips to market your service and attract customers globally.(如果你提供国际学生交流项目服务（ISEPS），那么现在正是推广这项服务的最佳时机。以下是一些用于推广你的服务并吸引全球客户的建议)”结合文章主要说明了推广服务和吸引全球客户的建议。可知，一位打算招收更多国际学生的大学教师有可能对这篇文章产生兴趣。故选D。 B In celebration of World Book Day, China Daily and Beijing Foreign Studies University (BFSU) co-hosted a dialogue themed “The Power of Reading” at BFSU’s Arabic studies center last Monday. Guests from different fields and areas shared their growth experiences through reading. Qu Yingpu, editor-in-chief of China Daily, encouraged students to become talents with a global perspective by reading Chinese classics and foreign works in their original languages. He said, “Each great book is a world of itself, enabling us to understand the world’s diversity.” Wang Dinghua, Party secretary of BFSU, emphasized reading’s role in nurturing globally competent talents and boosting international communication. Wang Jiawu, former chief engineer at Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center, considered reading as a driving force behind China’s aerospace success. Growing up in difficult conditions, he studied hard and entered Beihang University, where reading technical books was a daily necessity. After graduation, he devoted 40 years to the cause of Chinese aerospace. He read countless technical books on aerospace engineering. “Professional reading is a must, and those who can preserve in the aerospace industry all share one common trait: love for reading.” he added. Kirill Kravtsov, a Russian student pursuing a master’s degree at Peking University, viewed reading as a means of connecting cultures and encouraging mutual understanding. “When we bring Chinese and Russian classics to the same table, different perspectives naturally arise. But through reading, we can enrich ourselves and lean to respect the differences.” he said. For example, Tolstoy’s War and Peace revealed to him the preciousness of human connections in times of chaos. When reading the sentence “Even the greatest hardship can be slept through,” in Lao She’s Rickshaw Boy, he understood the importance of humor and resilience. Meng Xiaoshu, a writer, believed reading is more important than ever before in this age of rapid development of artificial intelligence. According to Meng, reading is not just about acquiring information, but more about building a deeper connection with the world and expanding the dimensions of our lives. “Only by reading more books can we travel back and forth across different times and spaces, seeing the world anew.” she added. The experiences and wisdom shared at the dialogue inspired the youth to grow into individuals with global look through reading. Reading puts the world at your feet. 24. What did Wang Dinghua stress about reading? A. Its role in job hunting. B. Its value for cultural research. C. Its importance for exam preparation. D. Its function in global talent cultivation. 25. What can we infer from Wang Jiawu’s story? A. Passion for reading is key to career success. B. Difficult childhood is a key for career success. C. Working with successful colleagues is more important. D. Success in work relies more on talent than hard work. 26. What’s Meng Xiaoshu’s attitude to reading in the age of AI? A. Doubtful. B. Invaluable. C. Indifferent. D. Concerned. 27. What is a suitable title for the text? A. The Power of Reading. B. Activities of World Book Day. C. Different Ways of Reading Books. D. Cooperation between China Daily and BFSU. 【答案】24. D 25. A 26. B 27. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了为庆祝世界读书日，《中国日报》和北京外国语大学共办“阅读的力量”主题对话，各领域嘉宾分享阅读成长经历。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Wang Dinghua, Party secretary of BFSU, emphasized reading’s role in nurturing globally competent talents and boosting international communication.(北京外国语大学党委书记王定华强调了阅读在培养具有全球竞争力的人才和促进国际交流方面的作用。)”可知，王定华强调了阅读在全球人才培养方面的作用。故选D。 【25题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中““Professional reading is a must, and those who can preserve in the aerospace industry all share one common trait: love for reading.” he added.(“专业阅读是必须的，那些能在航天工业中坚持下来的人都有一个共同的特点：热爱阅读。”他补充道。)”可知，从王家武的故事中我们可以推断出对阅读的热情是事业成功的关键。故选A。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“Meng Xiaoshu, a writer, believed reading is more important than ever before in this age of rapid development of artificial intelligence. According to Meng, reading is not just about acquiring information, but more about building a deeper connection with the world and expanding the dimensions of our lives.(作家孟晓书认为，在人工智能快速发展的今天，阅读比以往任何时候都更加重要。孟认为，阅读不仅仅是获取信息，更重要的是与世界建立更深层次的联系，拓展我们生活的维度。)”可知，孟晓书认为在人工智能时代，阅读比以往任何时候都更加重要，由此可推知，她认为阅读是无价的。故选B。 【27题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是根据第一段中“In celebration of World Book Day, China Daily and Beijing Foreign Studies University (BFSU) co-hosted a dialogue themed “The Power of Reading” at BFSU’s Arabic studies center last Monday.(为庆祝世界读书日，《中国日报》和北京外国语大学上周一在北京外国语大学阿拉伯研究中心共同举办了以“阅读的力量”为主题的对话。)”以及最后一段“The experiences and wisdom shared at the dialogue inspired the youth to grow into individuals with global look through reading. Reading puts the world at your feet.(对话中分享的经验和智慧激励着年轻人通过阅读成长为具有全球视野的人。阅读让世界尽在你脚下。)”可知，本文主要介绍了《中国日报》和北京外国语大学上周一在北京外国语大学阿拉伯研究中心共同举办了以“阅读的力量”为主题的对话，不同领域的嘉宾分享了他们的阅读成长经历，由此可知，A选项“The Power of Reading.(阅读的力量。)”最符合文章标题。故选A。 C Music therapy started in the 20th century when musicians performed for veterans (老兵) in U.S. hospitals after the World Wars. In 1980, it was introduced to China. Now in places like hospitals and nursing homes for elderly, music therapy is being used to help people recover through sound and rhythm. Wang Hanlin, a young music therapist from Beijing Nursing Home, played the first notes of The Hello Song on his guitar and introduced himself with the lyrics: “Hello, my name is….” He invited Gu, his patient, an 80-year-old man with mild memory problems, to finish the sentence. With some encouragement, Gu slowly said his name. This moment was important because it showed he was starting to participate rather than just watch. It was a small but vital step in his recovery. Gu’s family had long been concerned about his memory loss, such as forgetting his own name or events that had happened that day. Despite his forgetfulness, they noticed something interesting — Gu would occasionally hum the tune of The Unfading Sun on the Grassland. The song had been his favorite when he worked in the Inner Mongolia autonomous region as a young man. Wang recognized the healing potential of this song, and after discussions with Gu’s family, he decided to design a music therapy plan centered around it. The young therapist presented Gu with images of blue skies, wide-open grasslands, galloping horses, and soaring birds. Each scene was linked to the song lyric. With Wang’s encouragement, Gu’s fragments of memories were triggered. “Blue skies, white clouds floating by,” Gu began to sing, his voice shaky at first, then gaining strength. With each session of the therapy, Gu’s ability to remember and sing the song’s lyrics improved. Over time, he could sing the entire song without hesitation. As Gu’s connection to the song deepened, something extraordinary began to happen: his memory, which had been confined to a few disjointed (脱节的) moments, began to expand. He started to recall more details, not just about the song, but about his entire life. The song unlocked a trove of forgotten memories, and enabled him to speak about important events from his past. “People often think music therapists just play songs and sing songs, but it’s far more intricate,” Wang explained. “We’re trained to assess the patients’ strengths and weaknesses and then design activities that target those areas, improving their cognitive ability and emotional health.” Elderly people often face the reality of aging — diseases, memory loss, emotional struggles, physical and spiritual pain. But people need to understand that there are non-drug interventions, like music therapy, that can be just as powerful in improving their health. Being a music therapist isn’t just about performing, but more about helping patients live a better life. 28. Who does Wang Hanlin help at work? A. Inexperienced nurses. B. Anxious parents of sick children. C. Elderly patients who suffer from aging. D. Musicians seeking to improve their skills. 29. What is a characteristic of Wang Hanlin’s job? A. He plays his favorite songs with his guitar. B. He teaches music theory to students at a university C. He focuses on performing concerts for large audiences. D. He makes special music therapy plans for each patient. 30. What does the underlined word “intricate” probably mean in paragraph 5? A. Simple and useful. B. Easy and interesting. C. Complicated and detailed. D. Amusing and exciting. 31. What benefit does music therapy bring? A. It replaces the need for medical treatment for some patients. B. It mainly serves as a form of entertainment for patients in hospitals. C. It allows patients to express emotions and improve cognitive ability. D. It helps patients forget their past experiences and focus on the present. 【答案】28. C 29. D 30. C 31. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。本文简单介绍了音乐疗法的发展历史、应用实例以及其在老年人健康改善中的作用。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段中的“Wang Hanlin, a young music therapist from Beijing Nursing Home, (Wang Hanlin，一位来自北京养老院的年轻音乐治疗师)”以及后文“He invited Gu, his patient, an 80-year-old man with mild memory problems, to finish the sentence. (他请他的病人Gu先生（一位患有轻微记忆障碍的 80 岁老人）把这句话说完)”可知，他在为一位患有轻度记忆障碍的80岁老人设计音乐治疗计划，可以推断出Wang Hanlin在工作中帮助的是患有衰老疾病的老年病人。故选C。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段中的“Wang recognized the healing potential of this song, and after discussions with Gu’s family, he decided to design a music therapy plan centered around it.(Wang看到了这首歌的治愈作用，于是与Gu家进行了商讨，最终决定围绕这首歌制定一套音乐治疗方案。)”可知，Wang Hanlin的工作特点是他会为每位病人制定特殊的音乐治疗计划。因此，选项D“He makes special music therapy plans for each patient.(他为每位病人制定特殊的音乐治疗计划)”符合题意。故选D。 【30题详解】 词句猜测题。根据文章第五段中的“People often think music therapists just play songs and sing songs, but it’s far more intricate (人们通常认为音乐治疗师只是播放歌曲和演唱歌曲而已，但实际上其工作远比这要……得多。)”可知，人们通常认为音乐治疗师只是播放和唱歌，但实际上远比这更复杂。根据转折连词but可知，此处intricate应与前面的“只是播放和唱歌”形成对比，即“更复杂、更详细”。因此，选项C“Complicated and detailed.(复杂而详细的)”符合题意。故选C。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章倒数第三段中的“With each session of the therapy, Gu’s ability to remember and sing the song’s lyrics improved. Over time, he could sing the entire song without hesitation. As Gu’s connection to the song deepened, something extraordinary began to happen: his memory, which had been confined to a few disjointed (脱节的) moments, began to expand.(随着每一次治疗的进行，Gu先生记忆和哼唱歌曲歌词的能力都有所提高。随着时间的推移，他能够毫不犹豫地唱出整首歌。随着Gu先生对这首歌的熟悉程度加深，一些不同寻常的事情开始发生：他的记忆不再局限于那些零散的瞬间，而是开始扩展。)”以及倒数第二段中的“We’re trained to assess the patients’ strengths and weaknesses and then design activities that target those areas, improving their cognitive ability and emotional health.(我们接受过相关培训，能够评估患者的优缺点，然后设计针对性的活动来提升这些方面的能力，从而提高他们的认知能力和心理健康水平。)”可以推断出，音乐治疗的好处在于它能让病人表达情感并提高认知能力。故选C。 D Low back pain is one of the leading causes of disability in the world. Findings from a new study spotlight a solution that could cut the risk significantly: walking. “The relationship is dose-dependent, meaning the more people walk, the lower their risk becomes — up to about 100 minutes per day, after which the benefit levels off,” says the lead study author, Doctor Rayane Haddadj from Norway. In modern society, prolonged sitting leads to lower back pain, as many people spend hours at computers in poorly designed chairs. This seated position puts pressure on the lumbar spine and discs, whereas standing and walking engage core muscles, helping avoid some of the problems with chronic wear and tear that happens in the lower back. The study involved around 11,000 adults, averaging 55 years old, with no prior history of back pain. Participants wore accelerometers (加速仪) for about six days to track their walking duration and intensity. Then they were divided into four groups based on daily walking time: (1) less than 78 minutes, (2) 78 to 100 minutes, (3) 101 to 124 minutes, and (4) 125 minutes or more. Additionally, participants were classified by walking intensity: slow, moderate, or brisk. Over an average follow-up of four years, approximately 1,700 individuals developed back pain. After adjusting for factors like age, sex, income, depression, and smoking, data analysis revealed that walking at least 100 minutes daily reduced the risk of developing chronic lower back pain by 23% compared to those who walked less than 78 minutes, regardless of pace. The sweet spot seemed to be around 100 to 125 minutes per day. More than that didn’t offer much additional protection. These findings are encouraging, especially for those already experiencing lower back pain or who may not be very active, as walking is accessible to most. Using a smartphone to track walking time and steps can enhance motivation. It is highly recommended to walk with a family member, friend, or group to make it more fun. Walking 100 minutes might sound hard to fit into your day, but if you translate it into about 10,000 to 12,000 steps, it may seem manageable. Remember: walking at any pace helps prevent back pain — and just standing helps. 32. What has been found about walking? A. Prolonged sitting has no impact on lower back pain. B. Walking for 78 minutes a day is enough to prevent lower back pain. C. Walking for over 125 minutes per day can provides more protection. D. Walking for 100 minutes daily can reduce the risk of lower back pain. 33. Why is lower back pain so common nowadays? A. Due to prolonged sitting in front of the computer. B. Due to the increasing popularity of standing desks. C. Because of the overuse of core muscles in one’s back. D. Because people are unwilling to leave the air conditioner. 34. How was the study carried out? A. By conducting interviews. B. By conducting experiments. C. By analyzing the collected data. D. By completing online questionnaires. 35. What suggestion is given to one who is inactive in sports in the last paragraph? A. They should stand up and walk. B. They must join a walking group. C. They must purchase a smartphone. D. They ought to know 10,000 steps equals 100 minutes. 【答案】32. D 33. A 34. C 35. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了一项新研究表明步行可显著降低腰痛风险，介绍了研究过程、发现（如每天步行100分钟可显著降低风险）以及针对久坐人群的实用建议。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“The relationship is dose-dependent, meaning the more people walk, the lower their risk becomes — up to about 100 minutes per day, after which the benefit levels off(这种关系是剂量依赖性的，也就是说，人们步行的次数越多，患病风险就越低——每天大约100分钟后，这种益处就会趋于平稳)”可知，关于步行的研究结果发现每天步行100分钟可以降低下背部疼痛的风险。故选D。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“In modern society, prolonged sitting leads to lower back pain, as many people spend hours at computers in poorly designed chairs. This seated position puts pressure on the lumbar spine and discs, whereas standing and walking engage core muscles, helping avoid some of the problems with chronic wear and tear that happens in the lower back.(在现代社会中，长时间坐着会导致腰痛，因为很多人长时间坐在设计不佳的椅子前使用电脑。这种坐着的姿势会给腰椎和椎间盘带来压力，而站立和行走则能激活核心肌肉，有助于避免下背部因长期磨损而产生的某些问题)”可知，如今腰部疼痛如此常见是因为长时间坐在电脑前所致。故选A。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“The study involved around 11,000 adults, averaging 55 years old, with no prior history of back pain. Participants wore accelerometers (加速仪) for about six days to track their walking duration and intensity.(这项研究涉及约11000名成年人，平均年龄55岁，且此前均无背部疼痛病史。参与者佩戴加速计约六天，以记录他们的步行时长和强度)”以及第四段“After adjusting for factors like age, sex, income, depression, and smoking, data analysis revealed that walking at least 100 minutes daily reduced the risk of developing chronic lower back pain by 23% compared to those who walked less than 78 minutes, regardless of pace. The sweet spot seemed to be around 100 to 125 minutes per day. More than that didn’t offer much additional protection.(在调整了年龄、性别、收入、抑郁和吸烟等因素后，数据分析显示，与每天步行少于78分钟的人相比，每天步行至少100分钟的人患慢性腰痛的风险降低了23%，无论步行速度如何。最佳睡眠时间似乎是每天100到125分钟。再多一点也不能提供更多的保护。)”可知，这项研究通过分析所收集的数据开展。故选C。 【35题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“These findings are encouraging, especially for those already experiencing lower back pain or who may not be very active, as walking is accessible to most.(这些发现令人鼓舞，尤其对于那些已经患有腰痛或者不太经常活动的人来说，因为步行对大多数人来说都是可行的)”可知，建议那些不经常参加体育运动的人应该站起来走走。故选A。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 I am a student at Camarines Norte Senior High School.

His friends and neighbors often sought him for guidance, trusting him for various matters. However, his son, Peter, was a contrast to his father. Peter was carefree and a bit lazy. When he went to school, Peter cared little about his study and enjoyed sharing jokes and laughter with his peers. His teachers were concerned about his lack of focus and motivation. After graduation from high school, Peter’s carefree attitude continued. Instead of pursuing higher education or a stable job, he took on temporary jobs that allowed him the freedom to maintain his leisurely lifestyle. Despite Tom’s constant encouragement and warnings about the importance of responsibility and planning for the future, Peter remained indifferent to his father’s concerns. As years went by, Tom’s hair turned gray, and he felt the weight of his age. He grew increasingly anxious about Peter’s future, fearing that his son would struggle for lack of responsibility. Tom recognized the need to give something to Peter so that he could take care of himself and his family to be. Tom decided to teach a lesson that would help Peter grow. One day, Tom called Peter to his room. “Peter,” he said, “you are no longer a child. I need your help to find a hidden treasure in a cave. I believe you can do that.” With that, Tom handed Peter a worn leather bag. Curious, Peter opened it and found the content: four sets of clothes, each suited for a different season, some food, a small amount of money, and a map. Tom explained, “I have drawn a map of where the hidden treasure is. It will show you the path. Please take care of yourself and offer help to the needed on the journey.” 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。 Paragraph 1: Peter loved the idea and set out on his journey. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: After a month of challenging journey, he reached his destination—the cave. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Possible version: Paragraph 1: Peter loved the idea and set out on his journey. The first few miles and days passed effortlessly, but he soon realized he needed to learn to care for himself, budget his money and make decisions independently. There were moments when he thought about ending the journey and returning home. However, he continued. Along the way, he came across people in need and offered them a helping hand. Through assisting others, he found his own strength grew, both in mind and spirit. He overcame the challenges and followed the map. Paragraph 2: After a month of challenging journey, he reached his destination—the cave. As he stepped inside, Peter found his heart beating faster. In a dark corner, he found not gold or jewels, but a heartfelt letter from his father, congratulating him on finding responsibility and showing care on the journey. At that moment, Peter suddenly understood that the true treasure was not material wealth, but his newfound sense of responsibility. Back in the village, Tom welcomed Peter and beamed with pride at the transformation in his son. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了村里智者汤姆的儿子彼得生性散漫。汤姆为让他成长，让他去山洞找宝藏。彼得途中学会自理、助人，克服困难到达山洞，发现宝藏是父亲的信，明白了真正的宝藏是责任感，汤姆为他的转变自豪。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“彼得很喜欢这个想法，并踏上了旅程。”可知，第一段可描写彼得途中学会自理、助人，克服困难到达山洞。 ②由第二段首句内容“经过一个月的艰难旅程，他终于抵达了目的地——那个洞穴。”可知，第二段可描写彼得发现宝藏是父亲的信，明白了真正的宝藏是责任感，汤姆为他的转变自豪。 2.续写线索：彼得踏上旅程——学会自理助人——到达山洞——发现父亲的信——彼得感悟——父亲骄傲 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①克服：overcome/get over ②意识到：realize/be aware of ③走进：step inside/get in 情绪类 ①真诚：heartfelt/sincere ②轻松地：effortlessly/easily 【点睛】[高分句型1] There were moments when he thought about ending the journey and returning home.(运用了when引导定语从句) [高分句型2] As he stepped inside, Peter found his heart beating faster.(运用了as引导时间状语从句) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 机密★启用前 海口市2024～2025学年第二学期 高二年级期末考试（英语） 注意事项： 1.答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡上。 2.回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上。写在本试卷上无效。 3.考试结束后，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1. 【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 When will the speakers probably arrive at the stadium?

B In celebration of World Book Day, China Daily and Beijing Foreign Studies University (BFSU) co-hosted a dialogue themed “The Power of Reading” at BFSU’s Arabic studies center last Monday. Guests from different fields and areas shared their growth experiences through reading. Qu Yingpu, editor-in-chief of China Daily, encouraged students to become talents with a global perspective by reading Chinese classics and foreign works in their original languages. He said, “Each great book is a world of itself, enabling us to understand the world’s diversity.” Wang Dinghua, Party secretary of BFSU, emphasized reading’s role in nurturing globally competent talents and boosting international communication. Wang Jiawu, former chief engineer at Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center, considered reading as a driving force behind China’s aerospace success. Growing up in difficult conditions, he studied hard and entered Beihang University, where reading technical books was a daily necessity. After graduation, he devoted 40 years to the cause of Chinese aerospace. He read countless technical books on aerospace engineering. “Professional reading is a must, and those who can preserve in the aerospace industry all share one common trait: love for reading.” he added. Kirill Kravtsov, a Russian student pursuing a master’s degree at Peking University, viewed reading as a means of connecting cultures and encouraging mutual understanding. “When we bring Chinese and Russian classics to the same table, different perspectives naturally arise. But through reading, we can enrich ourselves and lean to respect the differences.” he said. For example, Tolstoy’s War and Peace revealed to him the preciousness of human connections in times of chaos. When reading the sentence “Even the greatest hardship can be slept through,” in Lao She’s Rickshaw Boy, he understood the importance of humor and resilience. Meng Xiaoshu, a writer, believed reading is more important than ever before in this age of rapid development of artificial intelligence. According to Meng, reading is not just about acquiring information, but more about building a deeper connection with the world and expanding the dimensions of our lives. “Only by reading more books can we travel back and forth across different times and spaces, seeing the world anew.” she added. The experiences and wisdom shared at the dialogue inspired the youth to grow into individuals with global look through reading. Reading puts the world at your feet. 24. What did Wang Dinghua stress about reading? A. Its role in job hunting. B. Its value for cultural research. C. Its importance for exam preparation. D. Its function in global talent cultivation. 25. What can we infer from Wang Jiawu’s story? A. Passion for reading is key to career success. B. Difficult childhood is a key for career success. C. Working with successful colleagues is more important. D. Success in work relies more on talent than hard work. 26. What’s Meng Xiaoshu’s attitude to reading in the age of AI? A. Doubtful. B. Invaluable. C. Indifferent. D. Concerned. 27. What is a suitable title for the text? A. The Power of Reading. B. Activities of World Book Day. C. Different Ways of Reading Books. D. Cooperation between China Daily and BFSU. C Music therapy started in the 20th century when musicians performed for veterans (老兵) in U.S. hospitals after the World Wars. In 1980, it was introduced to China. Now in places like hospitals and nursing homes for elderly, music therapy is being used to help people recover through sound and rhythm. Wang Hanlin, a young music therapist from Beijing Nursing Home, played the first notes of The Hello Song on his guitar and introduced himself with the lyrics: “Hello, my name is….” He invited Gu, his patient, an 80-year-old man with mild memory problems, to finish the sentence. With some encouragement, Gu slowly said his name. This moment was important because it showed he was starting to participate rather than just watch. It was a small but vital step in his recovery. Gu’s family had long been concerned about his memory loss, such as forgetting his own name or events that had happened that day. Despite his forgetfulness, they noticed something interesting — Gu would occasionally hum the tune of The Unfading Sun on the Grassland. The song had been his favorite when he worked in the Inner Mongolia autonomous region as a young man. Wang recognized the healing potential of this song, and after discussions with Gu’s family, he decided to design a music therapy plan centered around it. The young therapist presented Gu with images of blue skies, wide-open grasslands, galloping horses, and soaring birds. Each scene was linked to the song lyric. With Wang’s encouragement, Gu’s fragments of memories were triggered. “Blue skies, white clouds floating by,” Gu began to sing, his voice shaky at first, then gaining strength. With each session of the therapy, Gu’s ability to remember and sing the song’s lyrics improved. Over time, he could sing the entire song without hesitation. As Gu’s connection to the song deepened, something extraordinary began to happen: his memory, which had been confined to a few disjointed (脱节的) moments, began to expand. He started to recall more details, not just about the song, but about his entire life. The song unlocked a trove of forgotten memories, and enabled him to speak about important events from his past. “People often think music therapists just play songs and sing songs, but it’s far more intricate,” Wang explained. “We’re trained to assess the patients’ strengths and weaknesses and then design activities that target those areas, improving their cognitive ability and emotional health.” Elderly people often face the reality of aging — diseases, memory loss, emotional struggles, physical and spiritual pain. But people need to understand that there are non-drug interventions, like music therapy, that can be just as powerful in improving their health. Being a music therapist isn’t just about performing, but more about helping patients live a better life. 28. Who does Wang Hanlin help at work? A. Inexperienced nurses. B. Anxious parents of sick children. C. Elderly patients who suffer from aging. D. Musicians seeking to improve their skills. 29. What is a characteristic of Wang Hanlin’s job? A. He plays his favorite songs with his guitar. B. He teaches music theory to students at a university C. He focuses on performing concerts for large audiences. D. He makes special music therapy plans for each patient. 30. What does the underlined word “intricate” probably mean in paragraph 5? A. Simple and useful. B. Easy and interesting. C. Complicated and detailed. D. Amusing and exciting. 31. What benefit does music therapy bring? A. It replaces the need for medical treatment for some patients. B. It mainly serves as a form of entertainment for patients in hospitals. C. It allows patients to express emotions and improve cognitive ability. D. It helps patients forget their past experiences and focus on the present. D Low back pain is one of the leading causes of disability in the world. Findings from a new study spotlight a solution that could cut the risk significantly: walking. “The relationship is dose-dependent, meaning the more people walk, the lower their risk becomes — up to about 100 minutes per day, after which the benefit levels off,” says the lead study author, Doctor Rayane Haddadj from Norway. In modern society, prolonged sitting leads to lower back pain, as many people spend hours at computers in poorly designed chairs. This seated position puts pressure on the lumbar spine and discs, whereas standing and walking engage core muscles, helping avoid some of the problems with chronic wear and tear that happens in the lower back. The study involved around 11,000 adults, averaging 55 years old, with no prior history of back pain. Participants wore accelerometers (加速仪) for about six days to track their walking duration and intensity. Then they were divided into four groups based on daily walking time: (1) less than 78 minutes, (2) 78 to 100 minutes, (3) 101 to 124 minutes, and (4) 125 minutes or more. Additionally, participants were classified by walking intensity: slow, moderate, or brisk. Over an average follow-up of four years, approximately 1,700 individuals developed back pain. After adjusting for factors like age, sex, income, depression, and smoking, data analysis revealed that walking at least 100 minutes daily reduced the risk of developing chronic lower back pain by 23% compared to those who walked less than 78 minutes, regardless of pace. The sweet spot seemed to be around 100 to 125 minutes per day. More than that didn’t offer much additional protection. These findings are encouraging, especially for those already experiencing lower back pain or who may not be very active, as walking is accessible to most. Using a smartphone to track walking time and steps can enhance motivation. It is highly recommended to walk with a family member, friend, or group to make it more fun. Walking 100 minutes might sound hard to fit into your day, but if you translate it into about 10,000 to 12,000 steps, it may seem manageable. Remember: walking at any pace helps prevent back pain — and just standing helps. 32. What has been found about walking? A. Prolonged sitting has no impact on lower back pain. B. Walking for 78 minutes a day is enough to prevent lower back pain. C. Walking for over 125 minutes per day can provides more protection. D. Walking for 100 minutes daily can reduce the risk of lower back pain. 33. Why is lower back pain so common nowadays? A. Due to prolonged sitting in front of the computer. B. Due to the increasing popularity of standing desks. C. Because of the overuse of core muscles in one’s back. D. Because people are unwilling to leave the air conditioner. 34 How was the study carried out? A. By conducting interviews. B. By conducting experiments. C. By analyzing the collected data. D. By completing online questionnaires. 35. What suggestion is given to one who is inactive in sports in the last paragraph? A. They should stand up and walk. B. They must join a walking group. C. They must purchase a smartphone. D. They ought to know 10,000 steps equals 100 minutes. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 I am a student at Camarines Norte Senior High School.

His friends and neighbors often sought him for guidance, trusting him for various matters. However, his son, Peter, was a contrast to his father. Peter was carefree and a bit lazy. When he went to school, Peter cared little about his study and enjoyed sharing jokes and laughter with his peers. His teachers were concerned about his lack of focus and motivation. After graduation from high school, Peter’s carefree attitude continued. Instead of pursuing higher education or a stable job, he took on temporary jobs that allowed him the freedom to maintain his leisurely lifestyle. Despite Tom’s constant encouragement and warnings about the importance of responsibility and planning for the future, Peter remained indifferent to his father’s concerns. As years went by, Tom’s hair turned gray, and he felt the weight of his age. He grew increasingly anxious about Peter’s future, fearing that his son would struggle for lack of responsibility. Tom recognized the need to give something to Peter so that he could take care of himself and his family to be. Tom decided to teach a lesson that would help Peter grow. One day, Tom called Peter to his room. “Peter,” he said, “you are no longer a child. I need your help to find a hidden treasure in a cave. I believe you can do that.” With that, Tom handed Peter a worn leather bag. Curious, Peter opened it and found the content: four sets of clothes, each suited for a different season, some food, a small amount of money, and a map. Tom explained, “I have drawn a map of where the hidden treasure is. It will show you the path. Please take care of yourself and offer help to the needed on the journey.” 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。 Paragraph 1: Peter loved the idea and set out on his journey. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: After a month of challenging journey, he reached his destination—the cave. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
