B Sam Edmunds, a teenage boy from London, decided to raise money for a very good cause by cutting his hair. He had spent three years growing it, so there was lots of hair to cut. The last time he cut his hair in 2021, Sam raised £3,200 for a local food bank. “I always had the idea of doing it again,” Sam told a news reporter. This time, Sam tried to help Alzheimer’s Society. Alzheimer’s disease (阿尔茨海默病/症) usually affects (影响) older people and gets worse over time. Around one million people are living with it in the UK. Sam’s decision was very important to him because his friend died of Alzheimer’s disease in 2023, and some of his friends also lost their family members with Alzheimer’s disease. In February 2024, when a famous football player from Sam’s favorite team died of Alzheimer’s disease, Sam was grieved. So he named his charity event “Bald for Bowles”. “I want to do something to remember all these wonderful people who meant so much to me and their families,” Sam said. Sam raised over £4,000 online for Alzheimer’s Society. But that was not all—his hair was also sent to the Little Princess Trust, a charity that makes wigs (假发) for children who have lost their hair because of health problems. Will Sam grow his hair again? “Yes!” he said with a smile. “Growing hair takes time, but helping others is always worth it.” 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 6. Why did Sam cut his hair this time? A. To try a new look. B. To join a charity group. C. To raise money for a food bank. D. To help people with Alzheimer’s disease. 7. What does the underlined word “grieved” in Paragraph 3 mean? A. Very sad. B. Very lonely. C. Very nervous. D. Very shocked. 8. What does Paragraph 4 mainly tell us? A. Long hair is difficult to care for. B. It’s hard to join a charity event. C. The charity event was a big success. D. Sam started the Little Princess Trust. 9. What will Sam probably do in the future? A. Start a food bank. B. Become a famous footballer. C. Work at the Little Princess Trust. D. Give away his long hair in three or four years. 10. What would be the best title for the text? A. How to grow long hair B. A teenager’s big heart C. Sam’s favorite football team D. The history of Alzheimer’s disease C In recent years, the word “involution (内卷)” has become very popular. It describes a situation where people have to work or study hard just to stay in the same place or to get a slight advantage (轻微优势). Take students for example. They face serious competition. They not only have to do much homework every day, but also need to take different after-school classes. They always try to get better grades than their classmates. Some students even stay up late to study, without caring about their health. This kind of non-stop competition among students is a typical character of involution. In the workplace, it’s the same story. People have to work longer hours and take on more work. They always want to be better than others. They are afraid of losing their jobs if they don’t work hard. The pressure makes them feel very tired. This is also an example of involution. Businesses are not immune (免疫的) to it either. Companies (公司) try hard to improve their market share. However, sometimes the products or services they offer are similar, and they are just competing for a small number of customers (顾客). This kind of involution is typical in the business world. Involution has both good and bad sides. On the one hand, it can make people improve their abilities. On the other hand, it may cause people to feel too stressed and lose their love for life. So we should try to find a good way of making the most of its advantages and reducing its disadvantages (减少它的不利之处). 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 11. How does the writer start the text? A. By giving examples. B. By telling a story. C. By explaining a word. D. By showing some reasons. 12. What’s the common result of involution at school and at work? A. People take more breaks. B. People feel more stressed and tired. C. People improve their teamwork skills. D. People become more creative and relaxed. 13. What does the underlined word “they” in Paragraph 4 refer to? A. Companies. B. The products. C. The services. D. Customers. 14. What is the writer’s attitude (态度) towards involution? A. He thinks people should stop it. B. He advises people to use it well. C. He is not sure about its effect (影响). D. He thinks it’s necessary for development. 15. Which of the following shows the structure of the text? A. B. C. D. D Are you tired of spending your weekends doing never-ending chores? ____16____ If so, read on! Here are four ways to help you finish all the chores in just 30 minutes. 1. Make a chore list and prioritize (划分优先顺序) things The first step is to make a list and prioritize things. ____17____ Then put them in order of importance. By dealing with (处理) the most important things first, you will make sure that even if you run out of time, the most important work has been done. 2. Use the Pomodoro Technique The Pomodoro Technique is an excellent way of finishing chores in a short time. The main idea behind it is to break things down into 25-minute parts each followed by a short break (5 minutes). Set a timer for each chore on your list and keep up the pace (速度) during these short intervals. ____18____ 3. Use multitasking strategies (多任务策略) To finish your chores in 30 minutes, use multitasking strategies. ____19____ For example, you can put bowls and plates in the dishwasher while the washing machine is working. 4. Delegate responsibilities (委派责任) One way of doing all your chores within half an hour is to delegate responsibilities to different people.____20____ Make sure that everyone does their part to keep the house clean and tidy. 根据材料内容，从下面五个选项中选出能填入文中空缺处的最佳选项，使文章意思通顺、内容完整。 A. Sharing chores is an easy way to save time. B. This allows you to deal with several things at once. C. Is finishing your daily housework taking too much time? D. First, list all the things that need to be done daily or weekly. E. This will keep you focused and make sure you feel fresh after each break. 二、完形填空（15小题，每小题1分，共15分） 先通读短文，掌握其大意，然后从A、B、C、D四个选项中选出一个可以填入相应空白处的最佳答案。 In a dance room in Changchun, Jilin, a group of women wearing ballet dresses move beautifully across the floor.
