W: Well, when I started college, I couldn’t believe how much free time I had. Compared with high school, I only had to go to a couple of classes a day in college! It was wonderful! But then halfway through the first term, I realized I was supposed to be studying the rest of the time.
M: So what advice would you give to new college students?
W: Well, professors expect you to work a lot outside of class. So use a planner. It’s also important to know what the best time for you to study is. Like, after two years, I finally realize that I don’t do my best work late in the evening. So now I try to schedule my classes for the afternoon and the evening, and study the rest of the day on my own. Oh, and one more thing — take breaks! Don't think you can study effectively for six hours straight!

【答案】17. C 18. A 19. B 20. A
【解析】
【原文】 W: Hello everyone. As part of this series of lectures on the development of early humans, today we are looking at rock art.
Rock art is found all over the world, and what is rather amazing is, well, let me give you an example. When our ancestors drew humans, they would often draw them as stick figures. But if they drew a face, then the eyes were almost always very open and wide. And these drawings were produced by people of totally different cultural backgrounds. But I’d like to focus now on the rock art of the early residents of Australia. The images that survive in this part of the world date back to at least 20,000 years ago. In fact, people in Australia were still practicing this art form in the late 18th century. When the Europeans began to arrive and certain images point to the contact between them. For example, the image that is evidence of European arrival is that of horses, an animal that would have been very unusual to the Australian landscape.
Um, it isn’t actually known how many sites there are across Australia where rock art can be found. But unfortunately, we do know that much of the art is being lost to us. Since the 1960s, industry alone has destroyed around an estimated 10,000 pieces of art. In some cases, the art is damaged when...

Barcelona’s electric 18-year-old winger Lamine Yamal has been handed the famous No 10 shirt previously worn by club icon(偶像)Lionel Messi, capping a remarkable breakthrough season for the teenager.
Yamal earned the jersey(球衣)after a remarkable campaign, in which he scored 25 goals for the club in over 100 appearances. The youngster, who wore the No 19 shirt last season, had already committed his long-term future to the club, agreeing a contract extension in May that will keep him at Barcelona until 2031. Having turned 18 on Sunday, Yamal was finally able to sign the contract and make it official. He did so on Wednesday, accompanied by his family.
He also received the No 10 shirt from club president Joan Laporta in a special ceremony. The No 10 shirt carries enormous weight at the Camp Nou, having been worn by Messi during his period of great success with numerous trophies(奖杯)at the club that shaped his career.
The No 10 has also graced the backs of Barca greats such as Diego Maradona and Ronaldinho, but Yamal said he would not be weighed down by its legacy. “I’ll try to build my own path, but all kids would like to be like them,” Yamal said Wednesday at the club’s announcement. “All three have been incredible players, they’re all legends, and I will try to follow in their footsteps.”
“Messi paved the way with the No 10, I will make mine,” Yamal told reporters. “They are three soccer and club legends. Every kid dreams of having something from Messi, Ronaldinho and Maradona. I’ll try to carry on that legacy.”
“First, my dream was to debut(首次登场)for Barca and wear the No 10. Everyone who grows up here dreams of that. I’m grateful to the club.” Having also won the European Championship with Spain last year, Yamal said his goal is to win all the other titles that are missing from his trophy collection. “I haven’t won the Champions League and the World Cup,” he said. “These are my goals now.” “My goal is to keep winning and growing,” Yamal said. “It’s the club of my life. It’s my home, I’ve been here since I was seven years old.”

C. It increases the player’s commercial value. D. It is given only to top goal-scorers each season.
26. How does Yamal view his role as the new No 10?
A. He sees it as an honor while paving his own way.
B. He regards it as a valuable marketing opportunity.
C. He perceives it as a restriction on his own playing style.
D. He considers it less important than his contract extension.

If you’re the kind of person who gets a lot done, you’re grateful for every one of the 86,400 seconds that make up a day. On July 9, however, as well as on July 22, and August 5, you won’t get your full complement of seconds. On these days the Earth will be measurably speeding up its rotation(旋转), shaving from 1.3 to 1.5 milliseconds off of the usual 24 hours the typical day gets.
The likeliest cause is the position of the moon. Lunar distance is an always-changing thing, with the moon tracing an elliptical (椭圆的)orbit around the Earth. At its closest approach — or perigee — the moon is only 224,000 miles distant. At its furthest — or apogee — that gap widens to 251,655 miles. On the three speedy days this summer, the moon will be at or near apogee — which is a puzzle, since lunar gravity is such that the Earth tends to slow down, not speed up, when the moon is farther away.
The moon’s orbit is not only elliptical, however, but cockeyed (倾斜的) too, angled anywhere from 18°to 28°relative to the Earth’s equator. The sharper that angle is the faster the Earth orbits, with lunar gravity in this case speeding things up, offsetting the slowing effect that lunar apogee usually applies. On the three days in question this summer, the moon will be close to its 28°peak.
Climate change — again and seemingly always — may play a role too. Last year, two NASA-funded studies found that since 2000, melting glaciers have caused the axis (轴) of the planet to shift by about 30 ft, changing the speed of rotation. The catch is, in this case the change causes the planet to decelerate, not speed up — by about 1.33 milliseconds per century.
Anyway, we don’t need to lose sleep over the slightly shorter days. The Earth and the moon have been doing their dance for the better part of 4.5 billion years, and it’s always been a stable one. Here’s betting they’ve got a few billion more years yet in their run.
28. What will happen on July 9, July 22, and August 5 according to the text?
A. Lunar distance will decrease greatly, changing how time is measured.
B. The moon’s gravity will weaken reducing Earth’s rotation speed.
C. Climate change will speed up ice melting, affecting day length.
D. The Earth will rotate faster, making the day less than 24 hours.
29. What mainly causes the phenomenon on those days?
A. The speed of the moon’s rotation. B. The angle of the moon’s cockeyed orbit.
C. The temperature on the moon’s surface. D. The distance from the moon to the Earth.
30. What is the author’s attitude towards the change of the days?
A. Anxious and alarmed. B. Indifferent and uncaring.
C. Relaxed and unworried. D. Confused and uncertain.
31. What is the best title for the text?
A. Shorter Days: The Moon’s Hidden Role B. Climate Change: Speeding Up Earth’s Rotation
C. Earth’s Rotation: A 4.5–Billion–Year–Old Puzzle D. Lunar Orbit: Always Changing and Unpredictable
【答案】28. D 29. B 30. C 31. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章指出7月9日等三天地球自转加快致白天略短,主要因月球倾斜轨道角度,气候变化有影响但使地球减速,作者认为无需担忧。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“On July 9, however, as well as on July 22, and August 5, you won’t get your full complement of seconds. On these days the Earth will be measurably speeding up its rotation(旋转), shaving from 1.3 to 1.5 milliseconds off of the usual 24 hours the typical day gets.(然而,在7月9日,以及7月22日和8月5日,你不会得到你的全部秒数。在这些日子里,地球的自转速度将明显加快,比平常一天的24小时缩短1.3到1.5毫秒。)”可知,在7月9日、7月22日和8月5日,地球会加速旋转,一天的时间会少于24小时。故选D项。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“The moon’s orbit is not only elliptical, however, but cockeyed (倾斜的) too, angled anywhere from 18°to 28°relative to the Earth’s equator. The sharper that angle is the faster the Earth orbits, with lunar gravity in this case speeding things up, offsetting the slowing effect that lunar apogee usually applies. On the three days in question this summer, the moon will be close to its 28°peak.(然而,月球的轨道不仅是椭圆形的,而且也是倾斜的,相对于地球赤道的角度在18°到28°之间。这个角度越尖锐,地球绕轨道运行的速度就越快,在这种情况下,月球的引力会加速,抵消月球远地点通常会产生的减速效应。在这个夏天的三天里,月亮将接近其28°的峰值。)”可知,主要原因是月球倾斜轨道的角度。故选B项。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Anyway, we don’t need to lose sleep over the slightly shorter days. The Earth and the moon have been doing their dance for the better part of 4.5 billion years, and it’s always been a stable one. Here’s betting they’ve got a few billion more years yet in their run.(不管怎样,我们不需要因为白天变短而失眠。在45亿年的大部分时间里,地球和月球一直在跳舞,而且一直很稳定。我打赌他们还有几十亿年的生命。)”可知,作者认为我们不需要为这些稍微短一点的日子担心,地球和月球的运行很稳定,所以作者的态度是放松且不担心的。故选C项。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文可知,文章主要讲述了今年夏天有三天地球会加速旋转,白昼变短,而主要原因与月球的位置和轨道角度有关。A 选项“更短的日子:月球隐藏的角色” 能很好地概括文章内容,适合作为文章的标题。故选A项。
D
One hundred days after New York City carried out congestion (拥塞) pricing, significant positive traffic impacts are evident. Juliette Michaelson, an MTA deputy chief overseeing the program, highlights a striking 70% decrease in complaints about too much car-honking (按喇叭) compared to the previous year, calling it an “all-in-one” indicator of success.
Clear data shows traffic has substantially reduced. The Congestion Pricing Now Coalition reports a 65% drop in rush-hour delays at the Holland Tunnel, with travel times down 48%. Overall, 6 million fewer cars entered lower Manhattan compared to the same period a year prior, averaging 80,000 fewer daily by March. Traffic-related injuries within the congestion zone have halved. Buses are moving significantly faster, sometimes forcing drivers to slow down to maintain schedules.
Concerns that the toll (通行费) would discourage visitors and harm business appear unfounded. While year-over-year comparisons are complex, commuter rail (通勤铁路) ridership increased: Metro-North saw an 8% rise in January 2025 versus 2024, with NJ Transit and LIRR also seeing gains — the LIRR’s immediate post-January 5th increase strongly suggests drivers switching modes. Broadway ticket sales and Business Improvement District visitor counts (up 1.5 million year-over-year) further indicate business vitality hasn’t been choked off.
Initial public doubt is showing signs of shifting. While a December Siena poll (民意调查) showed only 29% support (51% opposed) , a recent follow-up shifted the split to 33-40 against, with city residents at 42-35 support. Most remarkably, a Morning Consult poll revealed the program’s strongest supporters (66%) are those who drive into the congestion zone most frequently — multiple times per week. Michaelson credits this to drivers directly experiencing improved traffic flow, matching experiences in London and Stockholm where opposition lessened after the policy was put in place.
The program’s other key goal — funding public transport improvements — is progressing. Through February, the MTA collected about $100 million in tolls. After costs, the projected year-end revenue (收益) is approximately $500 million. This revenue is already funding specific capital projects: subway elevators at Delancey Street-Essex Street (tied to affordable housing), contracts for the next phase of the Second Avenue Subway, and more electric buses.
32. What key evidence shows congestion pricing reduced traffic problems?
A. Electric bus usage increased by 48% in Manhattan.
B. Subway construction projects sped up significantly.
C. Toll revenue reached $500 million within three months.
D. Car-honking complaints dropped by 70% year-over-year.
33. What changes did public transport experience because of congestion pricing?
A. Subway lines in lower Manhattan were expanded and bus fares dropped.
B. Commuter rail ridership increased and buses moved significantly faster.
C. Public transport schedules were adjusted to match fewer car drivers.
D. Train stations were rebuilt to handle more visitors from other cities.
34. What does the underlined phrase “choked off” in Paragraph 3 most likely mean?
A. Greatly stimulated. B. Carefully managed.
C. Severely damaged. D. Officially recognized.
35. What is the primary use of the toll revenue?
A. Repaying drivers affected by the traffic changes.
B. Reducing subway ticket prices for low-income groups.
C. Supporting new road construction in congestion zones.
D. Funding public transport upgrades like subway elevators.
【答案】32. D 33. B 34. C 35. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。主要介绍了纽约市实施拥堵收费后,在交通改善、公共交通变化、商业影响以及公众态度转变等方面的显著成效。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“One hundred days after New York City carried out congestion (拥塞) pricing, significant positive traffic impacts are evident. Juliette Michaelson, an MTA deputy chief overseeing the program, highlights a striking 70% decrease in complaints about too much car-honking compared to the previous year, calling it an “all-in-one” indicator of success. (纽约市实施拥堵收费100天后,显著的积极交通影响显而易见。负责该项目的MTA副局长朱丽叶·迈克尔森强调,与去年相比,对汽车鸣笛过多的投诉减少了70%,这是一个“一体化”的成功指标。)”可知,汽车喇叭投诉同比下降70%,是拥堵收费减少交通问题的关键证据。故选D项。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句“Buses are moving significantly faster, sometimes forcing drivers to slow down to maintain schedules. (公交车运行速度明显加快,有时司机不得不减速以维持时刻表。)”和第三段“commuter rail (通勤铁路) ridership increased: Metro-North saw an 8% rise in January 2025 versus 2024 (通勤铁路客流量增加:2025年1月,Metro-North的客流量与2024年相比增长了8%)”可知,由于拥堵收费,通勤铁路客流量增加,公交车运行速度明显加快。故选B项。
【34题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段第一句“Concerns that the toll (通行费) would discourage visitors and harm business appear unfounded. (担心收费会阻碍游客和损害商业似乎是没有根据的。)”可知,对通行费会损害商业的担忧是没有根据的。根据“Broadway ticket sales and Business Improvement District visitor counts (up 1.5 million year-over-year) further indicate business vitality hasn’t been choked off. (百老汇的门票销售和商业改善区的游客数量(同比增加 150 万)进一步表明商业活力并没有被……)”可知,此处是具体例子,用来支持本段首句的论点,通行费并没有影响/损害商业。由此可推测choked off意指“商业活力受到严重损害”,“Severely damaged (严重损害)”意义相近。故选C项。
【35题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“This revenue is already funding specific capital projects: subway elevators at Delancey Street-Essex Street (tied to affordable housing), contracts for the next phase of the Second-Avenue Subway, and more electric buses. (这笔收入已经用于资助特定的资本项目:德兰西街-埃塞克斯街的地铁电梯(与经济适用房相关)、第二大道地铁下一阶段的合同,以及更多的电动公交车。)”可知,通行费收入的主要用途是资助公共交通升级,比如地铁电梯等。故选D项。

根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Temperatures are rising, and so are mental health risks
Climate change is increasing heat waves, posing growing threats to health. Extreme heat is becoming a severe challenge across the U.S. and globally, with forecasts suggesting one of the next five years could be the hottest on record. ___36___ Even survivors may face long-term consequences.
How does extreme heat affect the brain? ___37___ Dehydration (脱水) in high temperatures thickens blood, making it hard for the heart to supply enough oxygen to the brain. The brain, which uses 20% of the body’s energy, requires efficient heat release. In hot, damp conditions, sweating fails to cool the body, potentially causing heat exhaustion or a sudden serious illness, which can lead to nerve-related problems.
Extreme heat also worsens mental health: conditions like depression and anxiety become worse. ___38___ Furthermore, the medicines used to treat the mental illness and sleeplessness also appear to increase mental health weakness to heat.
___39___ Those with existing mental health disorders are weakest. Older adults face accelerated serious mental illness that affects memory. Homeless individuals and outdoor workers such as farmers are particularly at risk, as they often lack access to cooling resources.
Action is urgent. Most heat health plans ignore mental health. ___40___ These can include public awareness campaigns, such as warning people about the mental health risk of consuming alcohol or other drugs during heat waves. Other interventions include establishing community cooling shelters for heat emergencies and increasing monitoring of mental health patients during heat waves. Only through comprehensive strategies can we reduce the mental health impacts of extreme heat.
A. Who is most at risk?
B. The human body works best when at 37℃.
C. How to identify those in danger during heat waves?
D. It disturbs sleep, which further harms one’s ability to think.
E. So mental health steps must be added to these heat response plans.
F. Heat waves cause 1,300 U. S. deaths yearly from heat-related issues.
G. Research is needed to better understand health outcomes of a warmer world.
【答案】36. F 37. B 38. D 39. A 40. E

(极端高温正在成为美国乃至全球面临的严峻挑战,预测显示,未来五年中的某一年可能是有记录以来最热的一年)”提及极端高温带来严峻挑战,下文“Even survivors may face long-term consequences. (即使幸存者也可能面临长期后果)”提及幸存者也有长期影响,F项“热浪每年导致美国1300人死于与高温相关的问题”,承接上文极端高温的严重性,引出下文幸存者的情况。故选F。
【37题详解】
上文“How does extreme heat affect the brain? (极端高温是如何影响大脑的?)”提出极端高温如何影响大脑的问题,下文“Dehydration (脱水) in high temperatures thickens blood, making it hard for the heart to supply enough oxygen to the brain. (高温下脱水会使血液变稠,使心脏难以向大脑提供足够的氧气)”开始解释高温下身体的变化对大脑的影响,B项“人体在 37 度时工作状态最佳”是从人体适宜温度的角度出发,为后文解释高温影响大脑做铺垫。故选B。
【38题详解】
上文“Extreme heat also worsens mental health: conditions like depression and anxiety become worse. (极端高温还会使心理健康变差:抑郁和焦虑等疾病变得更糟)”说明极端高温会恶化心理健康,D项“它扰乱睡眠,进而进一步损害人的思考能力”是对极端高温影响心理健康的进一步阐述。故选D。
【39题详解】
下文“Those with existing mental health disorders are weakest. Older adults face accelerated serious mental illness that affects memory. Homeless individuals and outdoor workers such as farmers are particularly at risk... (那些已有心理健康障碍的人是最虚弱的。老年人面临越发严重的精神疾病,影响他们的记忆力。无家可归者和农民等户外工作者的风险尤其大……)”说明了存在心理健康问题的人、老年人、无家可归者和户外工作者等是易受影响的人群,A项“谁最容易受到影响?”能引出下文对高危人群的说明,符合语境。故选A。
【40题详解】
上文“Action is urgent. Most heat health plans ignore mental health. (行动迫在眉睫。大多数高温健康计划都忽略了心理健康)”指出多数高温健康计划忽视心理健康,下文 “These can include public awareness campaigns... Other interventions include establishing community cooling shelters... (这些措施可以包括提高公众意识的活动……其他干预措施包括建立社区降温避难所……)”介绍了应对措施,E项“所以必须在这些高温应对计划中加入心理健康措施”承接上文计划的不足,引出下文具体措施。故选E。

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。讲述了孔子在春秋时期被认为是最有学问的人之一,但他仍保持谦逊且有探究精神。
【56题详解】
考查动名词的被动形式。句意:尽管被认为是春秋时期最有学问的人之一,孔子却很谦逊,也有探究的头脑。Despite是介词,后接动名词形式,且Confucius与consider是动宾关系,故应用动名词的被动形式 being considered。故填being considered。
【57题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:人们经常赞扬他正是因为他的这种精神。分析句子结构可知,The reason was exactly this spirit是主句,... people often praised him for是定语从句,先行词是The reason,指物,在从句中作介词for的宾语,应用关系代词which引导,因for后置,此空也可以填that (若for紧随The reason之后,则此空只能填which)。故填which/that。
【58题详解】
考查冠词。句意:一日,他造访了鲁国宗庙——这是一个举行已故君王祭祀大典的独特场所。site是可数名词,此处表示泛指,unique的音标以辅音音素开头,应用不定冠词a。故填a。

考查副词。句意:令人惊讶的是,他竟事无巨细地请教:如何陈列祭品,用何种赞颂之词,何时行拜礼,从首次点燃烛火到最终礼成的全过程。根据下文“Some laughed: “Who says the sage (圣人) knows all?”可知,此处是指人们很惊讶,没想到圣人也不是无所不知的。此空修饰整个句子,应用副词surprisingly,句首单词的首字母应大写。故填Surprisingly。
【60题详解】
考查连词。句意:令人惊讶的是,他竟事无巨细地请教:如何陈列祭品,用何种赞颂之词,何时行拜礼,从首次点燃烛火到最终礼成的全过程。between... and...是固定搭配,意为“在……和……之间”。故填and。
【61题详解】
考查介词。句意:孔子回答说:“正是这种在任何情况下,每当遇到不明或困惑之处时渴望发问的迫切心情,让我区别于那些不懂装懂的人。” in every situation表示“在任何情况下”,是固定搭配。故填in。
【62题详解】
考查动词时态。句意:孔子回答说:“正是这种在任何情况下,每当遇到不明或困惑之处时渴望发问的迫切心情,让我区别于那些不懂装懂的人。” 此处是强调句,强调的是主语this eagerness to ask,是单数形式,句子描述的是客观事实(该引号里整体时态都是一般现在时),此空应用一般现在时,谓语动词应用第三人称单数形式makes。故填makes。
【63题详解】
考查反身代词。句意:他自己犯了错误。此处主语和宾语是同一个人,表示“他自己”,应用反身代词himself。故填himself。
【64题详解】
考查形容词。句意:因为他很聪明,热爱学习,而且从不以向经验不足的人请教为耻——他和别人的交流,虽然简单,却总是充满智慧。“the less...”是ask的宾语,“the+adj.”表示一类人,此处用的形容词比较级,less experienced表示“经验不足的”。故填experienced。
【65题详解】
考查名词。句意:因为他很聪明,热爱学习,而且从不以向经验不足的人请教为耻——他和别人的交流,虽然简单,却总是充满智慧。of是介词,后接名词。所给词wise是形容词,意为“明智的”,其名词形式wisdom意为“智慧”,是不可数名词。故填wisdom。

Renting a Son for New Year
Snow fell softly as Mike walked down the quiet street. Only his footsteps and distant holiday sounds broke the silence. It was Christmas Eve. His small apartment, usually comfortable, felt empty — no family to call. His parents had died long ago, leaving only old photos to remember them by.
Then he saw a note on a shop window: “Looking for a kind young man to share Christmas Eve. Two old people.” A warm feeling touched his heart. He called the number slowly, fingers pausing before dialing.
Before he finished knocking, a door opened. An old lady with white hair like snow pulled him in, saying, “You’re cold.” Her grasp was firm but gentle. The house smelled of cookies, a sweet scent that made him think of childhood. She held his arm, as if making sure he was real, not a dream.
In the guest room, a photo caught his eye: a 20-year-old with a bright smile. The quiet old man spoke low: “That’s our son, Tom. He was a fireman. Three years back, a big fire — he saved a girl but didn’t come out.” Silence filled the air.
The lady called them to the kitchen. She made dough(面团); he added chocolate pieces. The old man watched, smiling, as if this was his best gift. She talked of Tom’s first bike he rode it into a bush and funny stories that still made her laugh. He listened, asking about Tom’s favorite films and hobbies, feeling like they could have been friends. They lit small lights, ate warm cookies, watched a film about a family’s holiday adventures, and laughed till she looked tired.
Next morning, sun came through the curtains and woke him. Downstairs, the old man tried to give him money. Mike refused, shaking his head: “I don’t need this.”
“Your wife is ill?” Mike asked, seeing her pale in a chair by the window. The man sighed. “She has cancer, not long to live. She dreamed of spending time with Tom again, like we did every year … but he’s gone,” his voice sad.
Paragraph 1
The old man’s trembling words hurt his heart, and Mike stood rooted to the spot, a mix of shock and sorrow washing over him.

Paragraph 2
As the first snowflakes of winter danced from the sky the next year, Mike found himself standing before the old couple’s villa again
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Paragraph 1
The old man’s trembling words hurt his heart, and Mike stood rooted to the spot, a mix of shock and sorrow washing over him. Memories of his own lonely holidays flooded in — no warmth, no laughter, just empty rooms. He thought of how much he’d missed having family, and how the couple must ache for their son. It suddenly occurred to him how much family company matters to everyone. Immediately he went over to the lady with the old man and said softly, “I’m glad I came. Thank you for your warm reception and company”. As he left, he promised, “I’ll be back.”
Paragraph 2
As the first snowflakes of winter danced from the sky the next year, Mike found himself standing before the old couple’s villa again. Through the window, he saw the old man pacing, glancing at the door now and then. The moment he raised his hand to knock, the door flew open. “You kept your word!” the man said, smiling. Inside, they sat by the fire, chatting happily and the room filled with the kind of warmth he’d long desired. From then on, he visited often, bringing warmth to their home. For them all, they were no longer strangers but families.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了圣诞夜,孤身的迈克看到老人“寻找年轻人共度圣诞”的告示后前往。他得知老人的消防员儿子汤姆已牺牲,妻子身患癌症。迈克陪老人做饼干、聊天,拒绝报酬并承诺返回。此后他常去探望,原本陌生的三人因陪伴成为家人,也让迈克感受到了渴望已久的家庭温暖。

Barcelona’s electric 18-year-old winger Lamine Yamal has been handed the famous No 10 shirt previously worn by club icon(偶像)Lionel Messi, capping a remarkable breakthrough season for the teenager.
Yamal earned the jersey(球衣)after a remarkable campaign, in which he scored 25 goals for the club in over 100 appearances. The youngster, who wore the No 19 shirt last season, had already committed his long-term future to the club, agreeing a contract extension in May that will keep him at Barcelona until 2031. Having turned 18 on Sunday, Yamal was finally able to sign the contract and make it official. He did so on Wednesday, accompanied by his family.
He also received the No 10 shirt from club president Joan Laporta in a special ceremony. The No 10 shirt carries enormous weight at the Camp Nou, having been worn by Messi during his period of great success with numerous trophies(奖杯)at the club that shaped his career.
The No 10 has also graced the backs of Barca greats such as Diego Maradona and Ronaldinho, but Yamal said he would not be weighed down by its legacy. “I’ll try to build my own path, but all kids would like to be like them,” Yamal said Wednesday at the club’s announcement. “All three have been incredible players, they’re all legends, and I will try to follow in their footsteps.”
“Messi paved the way with the No 10, I will make mine,” Yamal told reporters. “They are three soccer and club legends. Every kid dreams of having something from Messi, Ronaldinho and Maradona. I’ll try to carry on that legacy.”
“First, my dream was to debut(首次登场)for Barca and wear the No 10. Everyone who grows up here dreams of that. I’m grateful to the club.” Having also won the European Championship with Spain last year, Yamal said his goal is to win all the other titles that are missing from his trophy collection. “I haven’t won the Champions League and the World Cup,” he said. “These are my goals now.” “My goal is to keep winning and growing,” Yamal said. “It’s the club of my life. It’s my home, I’ve been here since I was seven years old.”
24. What is the main event reported in the text?
A. Yamal celebrated his 18th birthday with a ceremony.
B. Yamal won the European Championship with Spain.
C. Yamal received Barcelona’s legendary No 10 jersey.
D. Yamal signed a contract extension with Barcelona.
25. Why is the No 10 shirt special for Barcelona?
A. It was first worn by Diego Maradona. B. It represents a legacy of club legends.
C. It increases the player’s commercial value. D. It is given only to top goal-scorers each season.
26. How does Yamal view his role as the new No 10?
A. He sees it as an honor while paving his own way.
B. He regards it as a valuable marketing opportunity.
C. He perceives it as a restriction on his own playing style.
D. He considers it less important than his contract extension.
27. What is Yamal’s current goal mentioned in the last paragraph?
A. To win the Champions League and the World Cup. B. To win the European Championship with Spain.
C. To debut for Barca and wear the No 10. D. To leave Barca and join another club.
C
If you’re the kind of person who gets a lot done, you’re grateful for every one of the 86,400 seconds that make up a day. On July 9, however, as well as on July 22, and August 5, you won’t get your full complement of seconds. On these days the Earth will be measurably speeding up its rotation(旋转), shaving from 1.3 to 1.5 milliseconds off of the usual 24 hours the typical day gets.
The likeliest cause is the position of the moon. Lunar distance is an always-changing thing, with the moon tracing an elliptical (椭圆的)orbit around the Earth. At its closest approach — or perigee — the moon is only 224,000 miles distant. At its furthest — or apogee — that gap widens to 251,655 miles. On the three speedy days this summer, the moon will be at or near apogee — which is a puzzle, since lunar gravity is such that the Earth tends to slow down, not speed up, when the moon is farther away.
The moon’s orbit is not only elliptical, however, but cockeyed (倾斜的) too, angled anywhere from 18°to 28°relative to the Earth’s equator. The sharper that angle is the faster the Earth orbits, with lunar gravity in this case speeding things up, offsetting the slowing effect that lunar apogee usually applies. On the three days in question this summer, the moon will be close to its 28°peak.
Climate change — again and seemingly always — may play a role too. Last year, two NASA-funded studies found that since 2000, melting glaciers have caused the axis (轴) of the planet to shift by about 30 ft, changing the speed of rotation. The catch is, in this case the change causes the planet to decelerate, not speed up — by about 1.33 milliseconds per century.
Anyway, we don’t need to lose sleep over the slightly shorter days. The Earth and the moon have been doing their dance for the better part of 4.5 billion years, and it’s always been a stable one. Here’s betting they’ve got a few billion more years yet in their run.
28. What will happen on July 9, July 22, and August 5 according to the text?
A. Lunar distance will decrease greatly, changing how time is measured.
B. The moon’s gravity will weaken, reducing Earth’s rotation speed.
C. Climate change will speed up ice melting, affecting day length.
D. The Earth will rotate faster, making the day less than 24 hours.
29. What mainly causes the phenomenon on those days?
A. The speed of the moon’s rotation. B. The angle of the moon’s cockeyed orbit.
C. The temperature on the moon’s surface. D. The distance from the moon to the Earth.
30. What is the author’s attitude towards the change of the days?
A Anxious and alarmed. B. Indifferent and uncaring.
C. Relaxed and unworried. D. Confused and uncertain.
31. What is the best title for the text?
A. Shorter Days: The Moon’s Hidden Role B. Climate Change: Speeding Up Earth’s Rotation
C. Earth’s Rotation: A 4.5–Billion–Year–Old Puzzle D. Lunar Orbit: Always Changing and Unpredictable
D
One hundred days after New York City carried out congestion (拥塞) pricing, significant positive traffic impacts are evident. Juliette Michaelson, an MTA deputy chief overseeing the program, highlights a striking 70% decrease in complaints about too much car-honking (按喇叭) compared to the previous year, calling it an “all-in-one” indicator of success.
Clear data shows traffic has substantially reduced. The Congestion Pricing Now Coalition reports a 65% drop in rush-hour delays at the Holland Tunnel, with travel times down 48%. Overall, 6 million fewer cars entered lower Manhattan compared to the same period a year prior, averaging 80,000 fewer daily by March. Traffic-related injuries within the congestion zone have halved. Buses are moving significantly faster, sometimes forcing drivers to slow down to maintain schedules.
Concerns that the toll (通行费) would discourage visitors and harm business appear unfounded. While year-over-year comparisons are complex, commuter rail (通勤铁路) ridership increased: Metro-North saw an 8% rise in January 2025 versus 2024, with NJ Transit and LIRR also seeing gains — the LIRR’s immediate post-January 5th increase strongly suggests drivers switching modes. Broadway ticket sales and Business Improvement District visitor counts (up 1.5 million year-over-year) further indicate business vitality hasn’t been choked off.
Initial public doubt is showing signs of shifting. While a December Siena poll (民意调查) showed only 29% support (51% opposed) , a recent follow-up shifted the split to 33-40 against, with city residents at 42-35 support. Most remarkably, a Morning Consult poll revealed the program’s strongest supporters (66%) are those who drive into the congestion zone most frequently — multiple times per week. Michaelson credits this to drivers directly experiencing improved traffic flow, matching experiences in London and Stockholm where opposition lessened after the policy was put in place.
The program’s other key goal — funding public transport improvements — is progressing. Through February, the MTA collected about $100 million in tolls. After costs, the projected year-end revenue (收益) is approximately $500 million. This revenue is already funding specific capital projects: subway elevators at Delancey Street-Essex Street (tied to affordable housing), contracts for the next phase of the Second Avenue Subway, and more electric buses.
32. What key evidence shows congestion pricing reduced traffic problems?
A. Electric bus usage increased by 48% in Manhattan.
B. Subway construction projects sped up significantly.
C. Toll revenue reached $500 million within three months.
D. Car-honking complaints dropped by 70% year-over-year.
33. What changes did public transport experience because of congestion pricing?
A. Subway lines in lower Manhattan were expanded and bus fares dropped.
B. Commuter rail ridership increased and buses moved significantly faster.
C. Public transport schedules were adjusted to match fewer car drivers.
D. Train stations were rebuilt to handle more visitors from other cities.
34. What does the underlined phrase “choked off” in Paragraph 3 most likely mean?
A. Greatly stimulated. B. Carefully managed.
C. Severely damaged. D. Officially recognized.
35. What is the primary use of the toll revenue?
A. Repaying drivers affected by the traffic changes.
B. Reducing subway ticket prices for low-income groups.
C. Supporting new road construction in congestion zones.
D. Funding public transport upgrades like subway elevators.

Temperatures are rising, and so are mental health risks
Climate change is increasing heat waves, posing growing threats to health. Extreme heat is becoming a severe challenge across the U.S. and globally, with forecasts suggesting one of the next five years could be the hottest on record. ___36___ Even survivors may face long-term consequences.
How does extreme heat affect the brain? ___37___ Dehydration (脱水) in high temperatures thickens blood, making it hard for the heart to supply enough oxygen to the brain. The brain, which uses 20% of the body’s energy, requires efficient heat release. In hot, damp conditions, sweating fails to cool the body, potentially causing heat exhaustion or a sudden serious illness, which can lead to nerve-related problems.
Extreme heat also worsens mental health: conditions like depression and anxiety become worse. ___38___ Furthermore, the medicines used to treat the mental illness and sleeplessness also appear to increase mental health weakness to heat.
___39___ Those with existing mental health disorders are weakest. Older adults face accelerated serious mental illness that affects memory. Homeless individuals and outdoor workers such as farmers are particularly at risk, as they often lack access to cooling resources.
Action is urgent. Most heat health plans ignore mental health. ___40___ These can include public awareness campaigns, such as warning people about the mental health risk of consuming alcohol or other drugs during heat waves. Other interventions include establishing community cooling shelters for heat emergencies and increasing monitoring of mental health patients during heat waves. Only through comprehensive strategies can we reduce the mental health impacts of extreme heat.
A. Who is most at risk?
B. The human body works best when at 37℃.
C. How to identify those in danger during heat waves?
D. It disturbs sleep, which further harms one’s ability to think.
E. So mental health steps must be added to these heat response plans.
F. Heat waves cause 1,300 U. S. deaths yearly from heat-related issues.
G. Research is needed to better understand health outcomes of a warmer world.

Renting a Son for New Year
Snow fell softly as Mike walked down the quiet street. Only his footsteps and distant holiday sounds broke the silence. It was Christmas Eve. His small apartment, usually comfortable, felt empty — no family to call. His parents had died long ago, leaving only old photos to remember them by.
Then he saw a note on a shop window: “Looking for a kind young man to share Christmas Eve. Two old people.” A warm feeling touched his heart. He called the number slowly, fingers pausing before dialing.
Before he finished knocking, a door opened. An old lady with white hair like snow pulled him in, saying, “You’re cold.” Her grasp was firm but gentle. The house smelled of cookies, a sweet scent that made him think of childhood. She held his arm, as if making sure he was real, not a dream.
In the guest room, a photo caught his eye: a 20-year-old with a bright smile. The quiet old man spoke low: “That’s our son, Tom. He was a fireman. Three years back, a big fire — he saved a girl but didn’t come out.” Silence filled the air.
The lady called them to the kitchen. She made dough(面团); he added chocolate pieces. The old man watched smiling, as if this was his best gift. She talked of Tom’s first bike he rode it into a bush and funny stories that still made her laugh. He listened, asking about Tom’s favorite films and hobbies, feeling like they could have been friends. They lit small lights, ate warm cookies, watched a film about a family’s holiday adventures, and laughed till she looked tired.
Next morning, sun came through the curtains and woke him. Downstairs, the old man tried to give him money. Mike refused, shaking his head: “I don’t need this.”
“Your wife is ill?” Mike asked, seeing her pale in a chair by the window. The man sighed. “She has cancer, not long to live. She dreamed of spending time with Tom again, like we did every year … but he’s gone,” his voice sad.
Paragraph 1
The old man’s trembling words hurt his heart, and Mike stood rooted to the spot, a mix of shock and sorrow washing over him.

Paragraph 2
As the first snowflakes of winter danced from the sky the next year, Mike found himself standing before the old couple’s villa again
