It's already taken my dad's ability to talk and eat normally. There is no cure. When he told me about his diagnosis, I knew two things instantly: I wanted to spend as much time with him as possible and if I was going to be living in my childhood home, I would need a bobby. Though never skilled at crafts, I've always found comfort in textiles. My mother, who had knitted a granny-square blanket in her twenties, was game to re-learn how to do it. In her youth, Granny squares became the after-dinner routine and soon I was churning out dozens of multicolored squares. And it felt like this project was, maybe, helping? “It's incredibly mindful, ” says Gabrielle Gatto, a death educator in our community. “That's part of really sitting with something. ” On a Tuesday evening, Gatto sets up a snack table inside the cemetery`s church, preparing for the start of her monthly interactive workshop, “Grieving & Weaving. ”“I think it was important to have that in the name as well, ” she says. “We are going to talk about grief, death and loss. But we're also going to create happy memories together, eating and drinking a bunch of things. ” It's a project that had been sitting in her closet for months. Earlier this year, after both her grandmothers died, she lost what she calls the “knitting light” for a while. Rafferty, who is also a therapist, says she almost skipped the workshop to stay home with her dog, but she's glad she didn't—being here is therapeutic. As Gatto says, after all, it's not the end product that's the therapy. It's the act of doing it. “A big thing with grief is moving through it both mentally and physically, ” Gatto says. “And that's exactly what we do here. We bring something that is maybe heavy on our minds or our hearts. And then we work with our hands. We work with it, and we work together. ” 24. What does the underlined word “game” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Resistant. B. Hesitant. C. Curious. D. Willing. 25. Why did the author turn to knitting after her father's diagnosis? A. To create a gift for her father. B. To follow her mother's hobby. C. To seek comfort and distraction. D. To master a new professional skill. 26. What is Rafferty's attitude to the workshop? A. Cautious. B. Supportive. C. Critical. D. Dismissive. 27. What is the key to the therapy process according to Gatto? A. Forgetting sadness by keeping busy. B. Creating a valuable product as a symbol. C. Achieving high efficiency through teamwork. D. Turning inner pain into a shared physical activity. 【答案】24. D 25. C 26. B 27. D 【解析】【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述作者父亲被诊断出肌萎缩性侧索硬化症后，作者与母亲通过编织祖母方格毯寻求慰藉；同时介绍社区死亡教育者 Gabrielle Gatto 开设的 “悲伤与编织” 工作坊，说明 “编织等手工活动将内心痛苦转化为集体身体行动，是疗愈悲伤的关键”。 【24 题详解】词义猜测题。根据第二段 “my mother, who had knitted a granny-square blanket in her twenties, was game to re-learn how to do it. In her youth, Granny squares became the after-dinner routine” 可知，母亲 “愿意重新学习编织”，“game” 意为 “愿意的”。故选 D。 句式分析：My mother（主语）, who had knitted a granny-square blanket in her twenties（定语从句，修饰 mother）, was（系动词） game（表语） to re-learn how to do it（不定式作定语，修饰 game）. 翻译：我母亲在二十多岁时织过祖母方格毯，她愿意重新学习编织。 【25 题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段 “Though never skilled at crafts, I've always found comfort in textiles” 及父亲确诊后 “this project was, maybe, helping” 可知，作者转向编织是为了 “寻求慰藉和分散对父亲病情的焦虑”。故选 C。 句式分析：Though never skilled at crafts（让步状语从句，省略主语和 be 动词）, I（主语） 've always found（谓语） comfort（宾语） in textiles（状语）. 翻译：虽然我从不擅长手工，但我总能从纺织品中找到慰藉。 【26 题详解】观点态度题。根据第五段 “Rafferty, who is also a therapist, says she almost skipped the workshop to stay home with her dog, but she's glad she didn't—being here is therapeutic” 可知，Rafferty 认为工作坊 “有疗愈效果”，态度支持。故选 B。 句式分析：Rafferty（主语）, who is also a therapist（定语从句，修饰 Rafferty）, says（谓语） she almost skipped the workshop to stay home with her dog, but she's glad she didn't—being here is therapeutic（宾语从句，含转折关系）. 翻译：同时身为治疗师的 Rafferty 说，她差点为了在家陪狗而缺席工作坊，但她很庆幸自己来了 —— 这里的体验很有疗愈效果。 【27 题详解】细节理解题。根据最后一段 “‘A big thing with grief is moving through it both mentally and physically,’ Gatto says. ‘And that's exactly what we do here. We bring something that is maybe heavy on our minds or our hearts. And then we work with our hands. We work with it, and we work together’” 可知，Gatto 认为疗愈的关键是 “将内心沉重的情绪通过手工活动转化为集体行动”。故选 D。 句式分析：‘A big thing with grief（主语） is（系动词） moving through it both mentally and physically（表语，动名词短语作表语）,’ Gatto says（主谓倒装）. 翻译：“悲伤疗愈的关键在于身心共同经历它，”Gatto 说。 C Picture this, you win two tickets to a sold-out concert and eagerly text to ask your friends if they'd like to join. There comes their response “Maybe. ” Your mood immediately turns, for you need to wait for their decisions before you can figure out your plans for the concert. If you've experienced anything like the above anecdote, you're not alone. People responding “maybe” to invitations is a common yet annoying aspect of social life. What goes on in people's heads when they aren't sure whether to accept an invitation? Social invitations can be a delicate dance. People often misread what someone extending an invitation wants to hear and overestimate an inviter's likelihood of preferring a “maybe” over a “no. ” Moreover, they fail to realize how much more disrespected people feel when they receive a “maybe” in response to their invitation. Naturally, we wanted to figure out why this awkward dynamic plays out. We found that it's largely due to something called “motivated reasoning. ” Motivated reasoning occurs when a person interprets information in a biased (有偏差的) way to suit their own wishes. In other words, invitees convince themselves that inviter s want to hear “maybe” instead of “no” because a “maybe” is better for the invitees, allowing them to leave their options open. Besides, people tend to overestimate the negative consequences of saying “no” to invitations, thinking it will upset, anger and disappoint inviters. However, there were certain situations that made people more comfortable saying “no” to an invitation. When recipients of an invitation put themselves in the shoes of the person extending the invitation, they are more likely to realize that they'd probably prefer a definite answer. When the participants get invited to do something they didn't want to do, they bad no desire to keep their options open. The motivated reasoning then became irrelevant. While navigating social situations can be tricky, being direct and definite is sometimes best. It might reduce your options. But it'll keep those who invite you from being left uncertain and maybe they'll still think of you when the next concert comes to town. 28. Why is the concert anecdote mentioned at the beginning? A. To explain the background of the invitation. B. To stress the importance of quick replies. C. To encourage immediate decision- making. D. To introduce a common social situation. 29. What is the main reason for the response of “maybe” to an invitation? A. A biased interpretation of social cues. B. A desire for harmonious communication. C. An underestimation of refusal consequence. D. An understanding of the inviter's expectation. 30. What is the author's suggestion in the last paragraph? A. Keeping your options open for better plans. B. Accepting invitations to maintain friendships. C. Prioritizing clear response over open options. D. Thinking twice before refusing an invitation. 31. What is the best title for the passage? A.

People responding ‘maybe’ to invitations is a common yet annoying aspect of social life” 可知，开篇演唱会事例是为了 “引入‘Maybe’回应这一常见社交场景”。故选 D。 句式分析：Picture this（祈使句，表 “想象一下”）, you（主语） win（谓语 1） two tickets to a sold-out concert（宾语 1） and eagerly text（谓语 2） to ask your friends if they'd like to join（不定式作目的状语，含宾语从句）. 翻译：想象一下，你赢得了两张售罄演唱会的门票，急切地发消息问朋友是否愿意同行。 【29 题详解】细节理解题。根据第三段 “We found that it's largely due to something called ‘motivated reasoning. ’ Motivated reasoning occurs when a person interprets information in a biased way to suit their own wishes. In other words, invitees convince themselves that inviters want to hear ‘maybe’ instead of ‘no’” 可知，“Maybe” 回应的主要原因是 “受邀者对社交信号的偏见解读”。故选 A。 句式分析：Motivated reasoning（主语） occurs（谓语） when a person interprets information in a biased way to suit their own wishes（时间状语从句，含不定式作目的状语）. 翻译：动机性推理指人们为了满足自身意愿，以有偏差的方式解读信息。 【30 题详解】细节理解题。根据最后一段 “While navigating social situations can be tricky, being direct and definite is sometimes best. It might reduce your options. But it'll keep those who invite you from being left uncertain” 可知，作者建议 “优先明确回应，而非保留选项”。故选 C。 句式分析：While navigating social situations can be tricky（让步状语从句）, being direct and definite（主语，动名词短语） is（系动词） sometimes best（表语）. 翻译：虽然应对社交场景可能很棘手，但有时直接明确的回应是最佳选择。 【31 题详解】标题归纳题。全文围绕 “社交中‘Maybe’回应的心理原因（动机性推理）、影响及建议” 展开，选项 A（The Psychology behind “Maybe”，“Maybe” 背后的心理学）涵盖核心话题。故选 A。 D Your behavior today could affect your brain activity in two weeks' time, new research suggests. These findings have significant implications for our mental health as well as our attention, cognition and memory. Our behavior and our brains are closely linked. And yet, the majority of studies only take a snapshot of our lived experience. “We know little about the response of brain functional connectivity to environmental, physiological, and behavioral changes on different timescales, from days to months, ” said Triana, a professor from Aalto University. To investigate these effects, Inana and his colleagues tracked their own brain activity and behavior over a five-month period using a combination of brain scans, wearable devices and their smartphones. “We studied brain activity using FMRI (functional magnetic resonance imaging) , sleep and physical activity patterns using a smart-ring, heart and respiration rates using a smartwatch, and mood using questionnaires prompted on their smartphone, ” Triana said. Triana's brain was scanned twice a week, followed by qualitative (定性的) data from mood surveys. The team identified two distinct brain patterns in response to specific behaviors: a short-term wave lasting less than a week and a long-term wave lasting up to 15 days. The short-term wave was reflective of rapid responses to a behavior, like struggling to focus after a poor night's sleep. Meanwhile, the long-term wave suggests more gradual, lasting effects of a particular behavior. These were particularly apparent in areas of the brain tied to attention and memory. In other words, a workout or restless night from two weeks ago could still be affecting you—positively or negatively—today. While this study only shows the brain activity of one individual, the researchers hope that it demonstrates the importance of studying brain activity in the context of our wider lifestyle and behavior, rather than a single snapshot in the lab. “This research is important because it provides a more comprehensive and dynamic view of brain function, highlighting the long-term impact of everyday behaviour on brain health, ” Triana said. 32. What inspired Triana to conduct the study? A. Her colleagues' prior research findings. B. A gap in long-term brain- behavior study. C. A demand to upgrade digital equipment. D. The wide use of brain scanning technology. 33. How did the researchers carry out their study? A. By tracking the participant's sleeping pattern. B. By analyzing brain data and personal mood report. C. By using only data from the most advanced scanner. D. By interviewing participants how they felt after scanning. 34. What is the key finding of the Triana's research? A. Behaviors have lasting effects on brains. B. Brain scans can best track mood changes. C. Short-term waves matter more for memory. D. Poor sleep affects the brain for over 15 days. 35. What is expected of future brain research? A. More precise laboratory shots. B. Brain activity in real-life situations. C. Promotion of brain function and health. D. Short-term effects of specific behaviors. 【答案】32. B 33. B 34. A 35.

With electric vehicles (EVs) gaining significant popularity globally—accounting for 22% of new car sales in 2024—many passengers report experiencing increased motion sickness compared to traditional vehicles. Social media platforms are filled with such personal experiences, particularly from those riding in passenger or back seats. 36 A primary reason for this phenomenon is the lack of familiarity with EV motion patterns. As William Emond, a PhD researcher in France specializing in motion sickness, explains, people's brains heavily depend on past experiences to predict and interpret motion. 37 For instance, experienced drivers naturally expect acceleration after hearing engine revs in fuel-powered cars, but EVs operate without such familiar auditory signals. 38 Recent research indicates that specific seat vibrations and the complete absence of traditional engine noise in EVs contribute significantly to motion discomfort. Furthermore, the regenerative braking systems—innovative technology that transforms kinetic energy (动能) into battery power—cause an unusually gradual slowdown. 39 Beyond this, motion sickness fundamentally occurs when the brain receives contradictory sensory signals about body movement. The inner ear, visual cues, and physical sensations send mixed messages to the brain, creating what experts call a “neural mismatch”. 40 This mechanism explains why drivers themselves rarely experience carsickness —they control and predict the vehicle's movements. A. Such long-term conflict can trigger motion sickness symptoms. B. Another contributing factor is that EV-specific features add to the problem. C. Some manufacturers are improving suspension systems to minimize vibrations. D. Drivers usually don't experience carsickness doe to their control over the vehicle. E. This technology lengthens the stopping process and may worsen feelings of sickness. F. Without previous EV experience, the brain has to struggle to estimate forces accurately. G. In regard to this phenomenon, researchers have identified several scientific explanations. 【答案】36. G 37. F 38. B 39. E 40. A 【解析】【导语】本文是一篇说明文，指出电动汽车（EV）因缺乏传统发动机声音、再生制动系统导致减速缓慢等特点，更易引发乘客晕车；解释晕车的本质是 “大脑接收矛盾感官信号（内耳、视觉、身体感受不一致）”，并说明驾驶员因能控制车辆预测运动而很少晕车。 【36 题详解】过渡衔接题。前文 “many passengers report experiencing increased motion sickness compared to traditional vehicles. Social media platforms are filled with such personal experiences”（乘客反映 EV 更易晕车，社交媒体有很多相关体验），后文分析具体原因，需一句 “引出原因解释”。选项 G（In regard to this phenomenon, researchers have identified several scientific explanations，关于这一现象，研究者已找到若干科学解释）衔接前文现象与后文原因，符合逻辑。故选 G。 【37 题详解】细节衔接题。前文 “people's brains heavily depend on past experiences to predict and interpret motion”（大脑依赖过往经验预测运动），后文 “For instance, experienced drivers naturally expect acceleration after hearing engine revs in fuel-powered cars, but EVs operate without such familiar auditory signals”（燃油车驾驶员听发动机声音预判加速，EV 无此信号），需一句 “无 EV 经验时大脑难以准确预判运动”。选项 F（Without previous EV experience, the brain has to struggle to estimate forces accurately，无 EV 驾驶经验，大脑难以准确预判动力变化）符合语境。故选 F。 【38 题详解】段落主旨题。后文 “Recent research indicates that specific seat vibrations and the complete absence of traditional engine noise in EVs contribute significantly to motion discomfort. Furthermore, the regenerative braking systems... cause an unusually gradual slowdown”（EV 的座椅振动、无发动机声音、再生制动系统导致缓慢减速，均引发不适），核心是 “EV 的特有设计加剧晕车”。选项 B（Another contributing factor is that EV-specific features add to the problem，另一个原因是 EV 的特有功能加剧了问题）概括段落主旨，可作为段首句。故选 B。 【39 题详解】细节衔接题。前文 “the regenerative braking systems... cause an unusually gradual slowdown”（再生制动系统导致缓慢减速），需一句 “说明该技术如何加剧晕车”。选项 E（This technology lengthens the stopping process and may worsen feelings of sickness，该技术延长制动过程，可能加剧晕车感）承接前文，符合语境。故选 E。 【40 题详解】细节支撑题。前文 “motion sickness fundamentally occurs when the brain receives contradictory sensory signals... creating what experts call a ‘neural mismatch’”（晕车因大脑接收矛盾感官信号，形成 “神经不匹配”），需一句 “说明这种矛盾的后果”。选项 A（Such long-term conflict can trigger motion sickness symptoms，这种长期矛盾会引发晕车症状）呼应前文 “neural mismatch”，符合语境。故选 A。 第三部分 语言运用 (共两节，满分30分) 第一节 (共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的 A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 My friend Karen and her husband David were acquainted with an elderly lady, Rose, who fell ill with no one to help her.

The ceremony was to be held in a large auditorium downtown on a damp December afternoon. As I prepared for this important day, choosing a simple black dress and even putting on makeup—both unusual for me—my mind was occupied with anxiety rather than excitement. Due to my neurological condition (神经系统疾病) that affected my mobility and coordination (协调性) , the upcoming ceremony filled me with fear. I bad learned that I would need to negotiate a flight of stairs during the proceedings. The mere thought of walking across the stage was terrifying enough, but the additional challenge of stairs seemed impossible. To make matters worse, I would have to shake hands with my professors and receive my diploma with my right hand, which has limited control due to my condition These seemingly small details felt like impossible obstacles Consumed by fear, I called Sally in tears, telling her I couldn't go through with it. She had been my notetaker throughout university because of my condition, but she was far more than that. We had been through many rough spots during the past two years. We took all our classes together, studied together, and edited each other's work. Sally listened patiently as I poured out my anxieties. Then, she responded with determined support. “You are walking, damn it! ” she declared firmly. She promised to handle everything and made me promise to show up at the auditorium. Though still fearful, I splashed cold water on my tear-stained face, touched up my makeup, and whispered to myself, “I'm doing this. ” When I arrived at the auditorium, the reality of those frightening stairs hit me again. Just as panic began to seize me. Sally found me immediately. She hugged me tightly and assured me, “I have it all worked out. It's going to be fine. ” To my surprise, I noticed many of my classmates gathered nearby, their faces filled with warm smiles and encouraging nods. At this, I felt a surge of strength flowing through me, though I still couldn't imagine how I would manage the challenges ahead. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: As my name was called, I took a deep breath and began moving toward the stage. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Walking down the stairs on the other side, I felt an overwhelming surge of pride. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【评分标准】 一、评分原则 1.本题总分为25分，按5个档次给分。 2.评分时，应从内容、词汇、语法和语篇结构三个方面考虑，具体为： (1)续写内容的质量、完整性以及与原文情境的融洽度。 (2)所使用词汇和语法结构的准确性，恰当性和多样性。 (3)上下文的衔接和全文的连贯性。 3.评分时，应先根据作答的整体情况确定其所属的档次，然后以该档次的要求来综合衡量，确定或调整档次，最后给分。 4.评分时还应注意： (1)词数少于120的，酌情扣分。 (2)书写较差以致影响交际的，酌情扣分 (3)单词拼写和标点符号是写作规范的重要方面，评分时应视其对交际的影响程度予以考虑，英、美拼写及词汇用法均可接受。 二、各档次的给分范围和要求 档次 描述 第五档 (21—25) ---与所给短文融洽度高，与所提供各段落开头语衔接非常合理，文章内容新颖、丰富、 合理，非常有逻辑性，续写完整； ---所使用语法结构和词汇丰富、准确，语言错误很少，且完全不影响意义表达； ---自然有效地使用了语句间的连接成分，使所续写短文结构紧凑，全文结构非常清晰, 前后呼应，意义非常连贯。 第四档 (16—20) ---与所给短文融洽度较高，与所提供各段落开头语衔接较为合理，比较有逻辑性，续写 比较完整； ---所使用语法结构和词汇较为丰富、准确，表达比较流畅，可能有些许错误，但不影响 意义表达； ---比较有效地使用了语句间的连接成分，使所续写短文结构紧凑，全文结构比较清晰，意义比较连贯。 第三档 (11—15) ---与所给短文关系较为密切，与所提供各段落开头语有一定程度的衔接，与原文情境基 本相关，但有的情节不够合理或逻辑性不强； ---应用的语法结构和词汇能满足任务的要求，虽有一些错误，个别部分影响意义表达； ---应用简单的语句间连接成分，使上下文内容连贯，全文结构基本清晰。 第二档 (6—10) ---与所给短文有一定的关系，与所提供各段落开头语有一定程度的衔接，内容和逻辑上 有一些问题，续写不够完整； ---语法结构单调，词汇项目有限，有些语法结构和词汇方面的错误，影响了意义的表达； ---较少使用语句间的连接成分，全文内容缺少连贯性，全文结构不够清晰，意义欠连贯。 第一档 (1—5) ----与所提供短文和开头语的衔接较差，内容和逻辑上有较多重大问题，或有部分内容抄 写原文，续写不完整，与原文情境脱节； ---使用的语法结构单调，词汇项目很有限，有较多语法结构和词汇方面的 错误，严重影响了意义的表达； ---缺乏语句间的连接成分，全文结构不清晰，意义不连贯。 0 ---未作答；所写内容太少或无法看清以致无法评判；所写内容全部抄自原文或与题目要求完全不相关。 第一段情节发展方向：同伴的无声支持————仪式的巧妙适应 第二段情节发展方向：同伴的祝贺————主人公的反思 【参考范文】 Paragraph 1: As my name was called, I took a deep breath and began moving toward the stage. To my amazement, two of my classmates came close by my side, matching my pace step by step. Sally walked closest, offering her arm not for leaning, but for reassurance. What surprised me even more was that instead of the formal handshake I had feared, each professor smiled warmly and simply placed the diploma in my open hands, whispering“We’ re so proud of you”. With their support, what I had imagined as an impossible challenge transformed into a manageable journey. The thunderous applause that filled the hall was not just for my academic achievement, but for the collective triumph of friendship and understanding.(103 words) Paragraph 2: Walking down the stairs on the other side, I felt an overwhelming surge of pride.Sally was the first to reach for me, her eyes glistening with tears of happiness as she pulled me into a tight embrace. One by one, my classmates joined me. Instead of formal handshakes, they surrounded me with genuine hugs and shared laughter. At that moment, I realized this was more than a graduation—— it was a celebration of friendship and resilience. The stairs that had once symbolized limitation now represented a victory we had achieved together. Encircled by my classmates, I finally understood that true strength lies not in overcoming challenges alone, but in embracing the support that makes overcoming possible.(101words) 【简略版答案】 第一部分 听力 (共两节，每小题1.5分，满分30分) 1-5ACCBB 6-10CBABA 11-15CABAC 16-20ABBAC 第二部分 阅读理解(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) 21-23CAA 24-27DCBD 28-31 DACA 32-35BBAB 第二节 (共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 36-40GFBEA 第三部分 语言知识运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节 (共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分) 41-45 BCDAB 46-50 CACCA 51-55 CDBDA 第二节 (共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分) 56.completing 57.competition 58. developed 59. reliably 60. mountainous 61. have joined/ have been joining 62. what 63. despite 64. that 65.

It's already taken my dad's ability to talk and eat normally. There is no cure. When he told me about his diagnosis, I knew two things instantly: I wanted to spend as much time with him as possible and if I was going to be living in my childhood home, I would need a bobby. Though never skilled at crafts, I've always found comfort in textiles. My mother, who had knitted a granny-square blanket in her twenties, was game to re-learn how to do it. In her youth, Granny squares became the after-dinner routine and soon I was churning out dozens of multicolored squares. And it felt like this project was, maybe, helping? “It's incredibly mindful, ” says Gabrielle Gatto, a death educator in our community. “That's part of really sitting with something. ” On a Tuesday evening, Gatto sets up a snack table inside the cemetery`s church, preparing for the start of her monthly interactive workshop, “Grieving & Weaving. ”“I think it was important to have that in the name as well, ” she says. “We are going to talk about grief, death and loss. But we're also going to create happy memories together, eating and drinking a bunch of things. ” It's a project that had been sitting in her closet for months. Earlier this year, after both her grandmothers died, she lost what she calls the “knitting light” for a while. Rafferty, who is also a therapist, says she almost skipped the workshop to stay home with her dog, but she's glad she didn't—being here is therapeutic. As Gatto says, after all, it's not the end product that's the therapy. It's the act of doing it. “A big thing with grief is moving through it both mentally and physically, ” Gatto says. “And that's exactly what we do here. We bring something that is maybe heavy on our minds or our hearts. And then we work with our hands. We work with it, and we work together. ” 24. What does the underlined word “game” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Resistant. B. Hesitant. C. Curious. D. Willing. 25. Why did the author turn to knitting after her father's diagnosis? A. To create a gift for her father. B. To follow her mother's hobby. C. To seek comfort and distraction. D. To master a new professional skill. 26. What is Rafferty's attitude to the workshop? A. Cautious. B. Supportive. C. Critical. D. Dismissive. 27. What is the key to the therapy process according to Gatto? A. Forgetting sadness by keeping busy. B. Creating a valuable product as a symbol. C. Achieving high efficiency through teamwork. D. Turning inner pain into a shared physical activity. C Picture this, you win two tickets to a sold-out concert and eagerly text to ask your friends if they'd like to join. There comes their response “Maybe. ” Your mood immediately turns, for you need to wait for their decisions before you can figure out your plans for the concert. If you've experienced anything like the above anecdote, you're not alone. People responding “maybe” to invitations is a common yet annoying aspect of social life. What goes on in people's heads when they aren't sure whether to accept an invitation? Social invitations can be a delicate dance. People often misread what someone extending an invitation wants to hear and overestimate an inviter's likelihood of preferring a “maybe” over a “no. ” Moreover, they fail to realize how much more disrespected people feel when they receive a “maybe” in response to their invitation. Naturally, we wanted to figure out why this awkward dynamic plays out. We found that it's largely due to something called “motivated reasoning. ” Motivated reasoning occurs when a person interprets information in a biased (有偏差的) way to suit their own wishes. In other words, invitees convince themselves that inviter s want to hear “maybe” instead of “no” because a “maybe” is better for the invitees, allowing them to leave their options open. Besides, people tend to overestimate the negative consequences of saying “no” to invitations, thinking it will upset, anger and disappoint inviters. However, there were certain situations that made people more comfortable saying “no” to an invitation. When recipients of an invitation put themselves in the shoes of the person extending the invitation, they are more likely to realize that they'd probably prefer a definite answer. When the participants get invited to do something they didn't want to do, they bad no desire to keep their options open. The motivated reasoning then became irrelevant. While navigating social situations can be tricky, being direct and definite is sometimes best. It might reduce your options. But it'll keep those who invite you from being left uncertain and maybe they'll still think of you when the next concert comes to town. 28. Why is the concert anecdote mentioned at the beginning? A. To explain the background of the invitation. B. To stress the importance of quick replies. C. To encourage immediate decision- making. D. To introduce a common social situation. 29. What is the main reason for the response of “maybe” to an invitation? A. A biased interpretation of social cues. B. A desire for harmonious communication. C. An underestimation of refusal consequence. D. An understanding of the inviter's expectation. 30. What is the author's suggestion in the last paragraph? A. Keeping your options open for better plans. B. Accepting invitations to maintain friendships. C. Prioritizing clear response over open options. D. Thinking twice before refusing an invitation. 31. What is the best title for the passage? A. The Psychology behind “Maybe” B. The Hidden Consequence of “Maybe” C. “Maybe”: A Polite Escape from Conflict D. “Maybe”: A Perfect Solution to Invitations D Your behavior today could affect your brain activity in two weeks' time, new research suggests. These findings have significant implications for our mental health as well as our attention, cognition and memory. Our behavior and our brains are closely linked. And yet, the majority of studies only take a snapshot of our lived experience. “We know little about the response of brain functional connectivity to environmental, physiological, and behavioral changes on different timescales, from days to months, ” said Triana, a professor from Aalto University. To investigate these effects, Inana and his colleagues tracked their own brain activity and behavior over a five-month period using a combination of brain scans, wearable devices and their smartphones. “We studied brain activity using FMRI (functional magnetic resonance imaging) , sleep and physical activity patterns using a smart-ring, heart and respiration rates using a smartwatch, and mood using questionnaires prompted on their smartphone, ” Triana said. Triana's brain was scanned twice a week, followed by qualitative (定性的) data from mood surveys. The team identified two distinct brain patterns in response to specific behaviors: a short-term wave lasting less than a week and a long-term wave lasting up to 15 days. The short-term wave was reflective of rapid responses to a behavior, like struggling to focus after a poor night's sleep. Meanwhile, the long-term wave suggests more gradual, lasting effects of a particular behavior. These were particularly apparent in areas of the brain tied to attention and memory. In other words, a workout or restless night from two weeks ago could still be affecting you—positively or negatively—today. While this study only shows the brain activity of one individual, the researchers hope that it demonstrates the importance of studying brain activity in the context of our wider lifestyle and behavior, rather than a single snapshot in the lab. “This research is important because it provides a more comprehensive and dynamic view of brain function, highlighting the long-term impact of everyday behaviour on brain health, ” Triana said. 32. What inspired Triana to conduct the study? A. Her colleagues' prior research findings. B. A gap in long-term brain- behavior study. C. A demand to upgrade digital equipment. D. The wide use of brain scanning technology. 33. How did the researchers carry out their study? A. By tracking the participant's sleeping pattern. B. By analyzing brain data and personal mood report. C. By using only data from the most advanced scanner. D. By interviewing participants how they felt after scanning. 34. What is the key finding of the Triana's research? A. Behaviors have lasting effects on brains. B. Brain scans can best track mood changes. C. Short-term waves matter more for memory. D. Poor sleep affects the brain for over 15 days. 35. What is expected of future brain research? A. More precise laboratory shots. B. Brain activity in real-life situations. C. Promotion of brain function and health. D. Short-term effects of specific behaviors. 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。 Why Do Electric Vehicles Make People More Carsick? With electric vehicles (EVs) gaining significant popularity globally—accounting for 22% of new car sales in 2024—many passengers report experiencing increased motion sickness compared to traditional vehicles. Social media platforms are filled with such personal experiences, particularly from those riding in passenger or back seats. 36 A primary reason for this phenomenon is the lack of familiarity with EV motion patterns. As William Emond, a PhD researcher in France specializing in motion sickness, explains, people's brains heavily depend on past experiences to predict and interpret motion. 37 For instance, experienced drivers naturally expect acceleration after hearing engine revs in fuel-powered cars, but EVs operate without such familiar auditory signals. 38 Recent research indicates that specific seat vibrations and the complete absence of traditional engine noise in EVs contribute significantly to motion discomfort. Furthermore, the regenerative braking systems—innovative technology that transforms kinetic energy (动能) into battery power—cause an unusually gradual slowdown. 39 Beyond this, motion sickness fundamentally occurs when the brain receives contradictory sensory signals about body movement. The inner ear, visual cues, and physical sensations send mixed messages to the brain, creating what experts call a “neural mismatch”. 40 This mechanism explains why drivers themselves rarely experience carsickness —they control and predict the vehicle's movements. A. Such long-term conflict can trigger motion sickness symptoms. B. Another contributing factor is that EV-specific features add to the problem. C. Some manufacturers are improving suspension systems to minimize vibrations. D. Drivers usually don't experience carsickness doe to their control over the vehicle. E. This technology lengthens the stopping process and may worsen feelings of sickness. F. Without previous EV experience, the brain has to struggle to estimate forces accurately. G. In regard to this phenomenon, researchers have identified several scientific explanations. 第三部分 语言运用 (共两节，满分30分) 第一节 (共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的 A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 My friend Karen and her husband David were acquainted with an elderly lady, Rose, who fell ill with no one to help her. Though not 41 , they offered to act like family. For years, they took turns 42 Rose in her home, then moving her into an assisted-living facility and eventually into a nursing home due to her 43 health.

Twenty teams from top universities and tech firms participated, with six robots 56 (complete) the 21-kilometer race. The winner, Tiangong Ultra, finished it in just 2 hours and 40 minutes. This groundbreaking 57 (compete) represented a crucial transition from controlled laboratory testing to real-world application. Unlike artificial lab environments, the marathon's unpredictable outdoor conditions tested the robots adaptability and endurance capabilities. Beyond sports, such robots are already in use—for example, the specialized inspection robots 58 (develop) by China Southern Power Grid, can operate 59 (reliable) in temperature extremes ranging from - 40° C to 80° C while maintaining power lines in remote 60 (mountain) regions. Since the beginning of this year, Chinese tech giants like Xiaomi and Huawei, well aware of the opportunities, 61 (join) forces with automotive leaders including Tesla and Toyota in 62 has become an international race to advance this technology. However, experts caution that 63 rapid progress, significant technical hurdles remain. Most robots currently operate at Level 2 autonomy but achieving Level 4—full independence—needs breakthroughs in AI decision-making. For students considering future careers in technology, humanoid robotics represents one of the most exciting and promising fields 64 may transform industries and daily life. 65 successful Beijing marathon serves as both a testament to how far we have come and s preview of the remarkable innovations still to come. 第四部分 写作 (共两节，满分40分) 第一节 (满分15分) 假定你是李华，你校英语节将举办主题为 “Gift a Book, Gift Hope” 的捐书活动，旨在为偏远地区学生募集书籍。请你为你所捐赠的最喜爱的一本书写一篇短文附在书中，内容包括： (1) 书本简介；(2) 赠书理由；(3) 寄语希望。 注意： (1) 写作词数应为80左右；(2) 请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 Dear friend, ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Hua 第二节 (满分25分) 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。 It's my graduation day! The ceremony was to be held in a large auditorium downtown on a damp December afternoon. As I prepared for this important day, choosing a simple black dress and even putting on makeup—both unusual for me—my mind was occupied with anxiety rather than excitement. Due to my neurological condition (神经系统疾病) that affected my mobility and coordination (协调性) , the upcoming ceremony filled me with fear. I bad learned that I would need to negotiate a flight of stairs during the proceedings. The mere thought of walking across the stage was terrifying enough, but the additional challenge of stairs seemed impossible. To make matters worse, I would have to shake hands with my professors and receive my diploma with my right hand, which has limited control due to my condition These seemingly small details felt like impossible obstacles Consumed by fear, I called Sally in tears, telling her I couldn't go through with it. She had been my notetaker throughout university because of my condition, but she was far more than that. We had been through many rough spots during the past two years. We took all our classes together, studied together, and edited each other's work. Sally listened patiently as I poured out my anxieties. Then, she responded with determined support. “You are walking, damn it! ” she declared firmly. She promised to handle everything and made me promise to show up at the auditorium. Though still fearful, I splashed cold water on my tear-stained face, touched up my makeup, and whispered to myself, “I'm doing this. ” When I arrived at the auditorium, the reality of those frightening stairs hit me again. Just as panic began to seize me. Sally found me immediately. She hugged me tightly and assured me, “I have it all worked out. It's going to be fine. ” To my surprise, I noticed many of my classmates gathered nearby, their faces filled with warm smiles and encouraging nods. At this, I felt a surge of strength flowing through me, though I still couldn't imagine how I would manage the challenges ahead. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: As my name was called, I took a deep breath and began moving toward the stage. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Walking down the stairs on the other side, I felt an overwhelming surge of pride. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
