This happened over the weekend with my daughter’s car. She was actually on the way from Denver to Boulder to meet up with us when she decided to take a different road to a favorite restaurant near her house for lunch. Coming out of the restaurant, she noticed with some chagrin that she had a flat. Not just a tire with low tire pressure, but fully flat. She told me, “I saw the tire pressure light on while driving to the restaurant, but thought I could check it once I got to your place. It was clearly not to be.”
Almost 45 minutes away, I could have jumped in the car and shown up to help out, but she’s 23, she has a AAA(美国汽车协会)card and she is able to think for herself when something bad happens. Instead, I decided carefully to be there to help by phone but not to head out to manage the situation. It was her car, her flat and her problem to solve. Most importantly, I had confidence she could manage the situation.
My hope was that she’d have a full-size spare(备胎)and could head out and join me anyway, but it turned out that she only had one of those annoying half-size spares that could get her to a repair shop in a hurry. In any case, the problem was managed and solved finally. The car was repaired and was all road-ready again!
As Harry Potter would say, mischief(恶作剧)managed! Now, fellow parent, would you have been able to avoid driving out to assist in a similar situation?
4. What does the underlined word “chagrin” mean in paragraph 1?
A. Joy. B. Regret. C. Pride. D. Hope.
5. What made the author trust his daughter?
A. The book. B. His help. C. Her ability. D. The repair shop.
6. Why did the author mention Harry Potter?
A. To stress the solution. B. To show the magic.
C. To guide the parents. D. To recommend a book.
7. What can be concluded according to the text?
A. No pain, no gain, B. Out of sight, out of mind.
C. Time waits for no man. D. Independence matters.
【答案】4. B 5. C 6. A 7. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者在得知23岁的女儿在途中发现汽车车胎瘪了,选择打电话帮助,并未亲自前往,最终问题得到了解决。作者借此引发父母对孩子独立能力培养的思考。
【4题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词所在句“Coming out of the restaurant, she noticed with some chagrin that she had a flat. (走出餐厅后,她有些chagrin地发现自己的车胎瘪了。)”和下文“She told me, “I saw the tire pressure light on while driving to the restaurant, but thought I could check it once I got to your place. It was clearly not to be.”(她对我说:“我在开车去餐厅的路上看到轮胎压力指示灯亮了,但当时想着等到了你那里再检查一下。结果显然不行。”)”可知,女儿认为自己本来可以早点检查修理轮胎的,却因不够重视导致自己陷入困境,所以发现轮胎瘪了时,是有些后悔、懊恼的。故选B。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Almost 45 minutes away, I could have jumped in the car and shown up to help out, but she’s 23, she has a AAA(美国汽车协会)card and she is able to think for herself when something bad happens. Most importantly, I had confidence she could manage the situation.(距离这里差不多 45 分钟车程,我本可以立刻开车过去帮忙,但她已经 23 岁了,不仅有美国汽车协会(AAA)的会员卡,遇到麻烦时也能独立思考。最重要的是,我相信她有能力处理好这件事。)”可知,作者信任女儿的核心原因是她的能力。故选C。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“Instead, I decided carefully to be there to help by phone but not to head out to manage the situation.(反之,我决定还是通过电话提供帮助,而不是亲自前往处理此事。)”和第三段“In any case, the problem was managed and solved finally. The car was repaired and was all road-ready again!(无论如何,问题最终还是得到了妥善解决。汽车被修好了,再次可以正常上路了!)”可知,作者的女儿遇到困难时,作者并未直接出面帮助,而是通过电话提供指导,最终女儿的问题仍然得到了解决;再结合第四段“As Harry Potter would say, mischief (恶作剧) managed!(正如哈利·波特所说,恶作剧完毕!)”可推断,文中提及Harry Potter是为了强调作者采用的解决方法最终获得了成功。故选A。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章内容可知,全文核心是作者放手让女儿独立解决车胎问题,体现对孩子自主能力的培养,最终女儿成功应对,因此D项“独立至关重要”最佳。故选D。
C
Most adults remember their first memories later or no earlier than preschool age. They agree that it is because babies don’t have memories. Is it true? Probably not!
Studies on animals show the hippocampus, a key brain area for memory, can store early memories and keep them into adulthood. Scientists even brought back forgotten mouse memories by stimulating (刺激) hippocampus cells active during the early event.
But what about humans? My lab spent ten hard years studying awake babies using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) (功能性磁共振成像). This technology is difficult to use for studying memory in babies. Why? Babies are always on the go, and have a short attention time, making good data (数据) hard to collect. Most baby fMRI studies happen during sleep. But we needed babies awake because memories form from real experiences. After over 400 experiences, we found ways to keep awake babies still and happy.
Recently, using this way, we found the baby hippocampus can store memories starting around age one. We showed babies pictures during fMRI. Later, we tested their memory by showing familiar pictures mixed with new ones. If a baby looked longer at a familiar picture, we considered it remembered.
Looking back at the brain scans when pictures were first shown, the hippocampus was more active for the pictures that babies later remembered. This suggests the baby hippocampus can create memories quickly after an experience, especially after 12 months old.
But many questions remain: How long do these memories last? How complex is baby memory? What blocks access? Could we ever recover these early memories? Answering these could help us understand learning, brain development, and memory loss in aging and disease.
8. Why is baby fMRI research difficult according to the text?
A. Babies often cry. B. Adults fail to talk with babies.
C. The equipment is too expensive. D. Babies move a lot and have little focus.
9. The experiment with pictures proved that ______.
A. memories form best at age one B. the hippocampus stores early memories
C. familiar pictures affect brains more D. babies remember things better than adults
10. How does the author support the topic of the text?
A. By listing daily examples. B. By telling a personal story.
C. By presenting research findings. D. By comparing different cultures.
11. What is the best title for the text?
A. When Memories Start to Disappear? B. How Babies Form Good Memories?
C. Can Lost Babies’s Memories Be Found? D. Do Babies Have Memories?
【答案】8. D 9. B 10. C 11. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要围绕“婴儿是否有记忆”展开,通过动物研究和作者团队对婴儿的功能性磁共振成像(fMRI)研究,推翻“婴儿没有记忆”的普遍认知,同时提出待解决的相关问题。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的“This technology is difficult to use for studying memory in babies. Why? Babies are always on the go, and have a short attention time, making good data hard to collect.(这项技术难以用于研究婴儿的记忆。为什么?婴儿总是动个不停,注意力持续时间短,导致难以收集到优质数据。)”可知,婴儿功能性磁共振成像研究困难的原因是婴儿好动且注意力不集中。故选D项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中的“we found the baby hippocampus can store memories starting around age one(我们发现婴儿的海马体从一岁左右开始就能储存记忆)”及第五段中的“the hippocampus was more active for the pictures that babies later remembered. This suggests the baby hippocampus can create memories quickly(对于婴儿后来记住的图片,其海马体活动更活跃。这表明婴儿的海马体能够快速形成记忆)”可知,图片实验证明了海马体可以储存婴儿早期记忆。故选B项。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文以及根据第三段“My lab spent ten hard years studying awake babies using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) (功能性磁共振成像). This technology is difficult to use for studying memory in babies. Why? Babies are always on the go, and have a short attention time, making good data (数据) hard to collect. Most baby fMRI studies happen during sleep. But we needed babies awake because memories form from real experiences. After over 400 experiences, we found ways to keep awake babies still and happy.(我的实验室花了整整十年时间,采用fMRI技术研究清醒状态下的婴儿。这项技术用于研究婴儿记忆时难度很大,为什么呢?因为婴儿总是动个不停,注意力持续时间又短,很难收集到优质数据。大多数针对婴儿的功能性磁共振成像研究都是在婴儿睡眠时进行的,但我们需要婴儿保持清醒——因为记忆是从真实体验中形成的。经过 400 多次尝试后,我们终于找到能让清醒的婴儿保持安静且情绪愉悦的方法)”可知,作者先通过“动物研究表明海马体可储存早期记忆”引出话题,再详细介绍自己实验室通过fMRI研究婴儿记忆的过程与发现(如“一岁左右海马体可储存记忆”),最后提出待解决的问题。整体通过呈现一系列研究成果来支撑“婴儿有记忆”的主题。故选C项。
11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Most adults remember their first memories later or no earlier than preschool age. They agree that it is because babies don’t have memories. Is it true? Probably not!( 大多数成年人对最初记忆的印象,最早也不会早于学龄前,他们普遍认为这是因为婴儿没有记忆。但这真的正确吗?很可能并非如此!)”可知,文章开篇以“成年人认为婴儿没有记忆”的普遍认知提问“这是真的吗?可能不是”,随后通过动物研究、作者团队的婴儿fMRI研究证明“婴儿有记忆”,最后提出与婴儿记忆相关的待解问题。全文核心围绕“婴儿是否有记忆”展开。所以最佳标题为“婴儿是否有记忆”。故选D项。
D
Yellowstone is a popular tourist attraction. To this day, under it lies one of Earth’s most active systems of earthquakes and volcanic activity.
Professor Bing Li and his coworkers used machine learning (ML) to re-examine historical earthquake data from the Yellowstone caldera (火山口) over a 15-year period. The team revisited old data and found about 10 times more earthquake events than those that had been recorded before.
A key finding in the study is that more than half of the earthquakes recorded in Yellowstone were part of earthquake groups. These groups differ from aftershocks, which are smaller earthquakes that follow larger main shocks in the same general area.
“While Yellowstone and other volcanoes each have unique features, the hope is that these findings can be applied elsewhere,” said Li. “By understanding patterns of seismicity, like earthquake groups, we can improve safety practices, better tell the public possible dangers, and even guide geothermal (地热的) energy development away from danger in areas with promising heat flow.”
This increase in recognized events pronounces a key advantage of ML over traditional methods; before its application, earthquakes were generally found by trained experts who manually reviewed data. This process took time, was costly, and often found fewer events than are now possible with ML. In recent years, ML. has caused a rush to collect data, as scientists revisit amounts of historical data stored in data centers across the world, uncovering more about unknown seismic areas past and present.
“To a large extent, there is no systematic understanding of how one earthquake causes another in a group. We can only indirectly measure the space and time between events,” said Li. “But now, we have a far more complete record of earthquake activity under the Yellowstone caldera. We can apply quantitative methods (量化法) to quantify and find new, early unseen groups, study them, and see what we can learn from them.”
12. How did the team find more earthquake events?
A. By using ML. B. By studying longer.
C. By checking new data. D. By having more experts.
13. What can we learn about the findings?
A. They are useless. B. They stop public-dangers totally.
C. They may help with energy development. D. They will attract more tourists.
14. What does the fifth paragraph focus on?
A. Experts’ work. B. The benefits of ML.
C. The importance of data. D. Seismic features.
15. How does Prof. Li feel about the record?
A. Dissatisfied. B. Worried. C. Positive. D. Uncertain.
【答案】12. A 13. C 14. B 15. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了机器学习重新分析黄石公园地震数据,发现更多地震事件及其应用价值。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Professor Bing Li and his coworkers used machine learning (ML) to re-examine historical earthquake data from the Yellowstone caldera over a 15-year period. The team revisited old data and found about 10 times more earthquake events than those that had been recorded before. (李冰教授及其同事利用机器学习 (ML) 技术,重新分析了黄石火山口15年来的历史地震数据。研究团队重新审视了以往的数据,发现的地震事件数量比此前记录的多了约10倍)”可知,李冰教授及其团队使用机器学习重新检查数据,从而发现了更多地震事件。故选A。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中““By understanding patterns of seismicity, like earthquake groups, we can improve safety practices, better tell the public possible dangers, and even guide geothermal energy development away from danger in areas with promising heat flow.” (“通过理解地震活动的模式,比如地震群,我们可以改进安全措施,更好地向公众告知潜在危险,甚至为地热能开发提供指导,使其避开具有潜在风险但地热潜力较高的区域。”)”可知,这些发现能指导地热能源开发避开危险区域,说明其对能源开发有帮助。故选C。
【14题详解】
主旨大意题。通读第五段,尤其根据第一句话“This increase in recognized events pronounces a key advantage of ML over traditional methods; before its application, earthquakes were generally found by trained experts who manually reviewed data. (地震事件识别数量的增加,突显了机器学习相较于传统方法的一大优势:在应用机器学习之前,地震通常由专业人员通过手动检查数据来发现)”可知,本段主要讲机器学习相比传统方法的关键优势,以及它带来的数据挖掘热潮等,所以该段核心是机器学习的优势。故选B。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段““But now, we have a far more complete record of earthquake activity under the Yellowstone caldera. We can apply quantitative methods to quantify and find new, early unseen groups, study them, and see what we can learn from them.” (“但现在,我们拥有了关于黄石火山口下方地震活动更为完整的记录。我们可以应用量化方法,去识别、分析那些此前未被发现的地震群,研究它们,并从中获取新的认知。”)”可推断,李冰教授对该记录感到乐观。故选C。
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。
If you always find at-home exercise difficult to stay motivated (有动力的) like the exercise at the gym. Here are some tips for you.
Set specific (具体的) fitness goals. Many people start with unclear fitness goals like “Lose weight. Be healthier.” ____16____, but they don’t help much with planning or getting started. If you already have a regular gym habit, these goals might be easy enough to keep up. But if you need to get serious about making yourself get off the sofa and exercise at home, I don’t think they work. ____17____. For example, you could set a goal to lift a certain weight with your arms by your next birthday, or lose a certain number of pounds by an upcoming event. The key is to make goals that are personal, actionable, measurable, and time-bound.
Meet your own deadlines. You’ll find that it keeps you focused. For instance, if you set a goal to do a one-legged squat (深蹲) by May and actually achieve it in April, this will make you feel proud and eager to set the next goal, ____18____, try a rewards system. If your goal is to lift 30 pounds with your arms by December and you’re currently at 15 pounds, think of rewards for reaching 20 and 25 pounds. Maybe treat yourself to a meal at a favorite restaurant.
____19____. Cristina Chan, a F45 Global Recovery Athlete, says that tracking your workouts in a way that’s easy to see can make a huge difference when exercising alone. She suggests marking a calendar, using a habit tracker app, or even putting sticky notes on a wall to record your active days. Seeing how regularly you keep doing it over time is a powerful motivator, ____20____.
A. These are great ideas
B. If you focus on your goals
C. Pay for your gym membership
D. Keep track of how you’re doing toward your goals
E. If a general feeling of doing better isn’t enough for you
F. That’s why you should start setting much more specific goals
G. It enables you to focus on showing up instead of physical results
【答案】16. A 17. F 18. E 19. D 20. G
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章就如何保持在家里锻炼的动力提供了一些建议,其中包括制定具体健身目标、运用奖励机制并追踪进展等方法。
【16题详解】
根据前文“Many people start with unclear fitness goals like “Lose weight. Be healthier.”(很多人一开始会设定模糊的健身目标,比如“减重、更健康”)”,以及后文“but they don’t help much with planning or getting started.(但这些目标对规划或启动锻炼没什么帮助)”可知,此空需先肯定这些目标的初衷,再通过“but”转折指出其不足。A选项“These are great ideas (这些想法很好)”承上启下,先肯定这些想法本身不错,再通过后文转折说明其局限性,符合逻辑衔接。故选A项。
【17题详解】
根据前文“But if you need to get serious about making yourself get off the sofa and exercise at home, I don’t think they work.(但如果你真的想让自己离开沙发、在家锻炼,这些模糊目标是没用的)”,以及后文“For example, you could set a goal to lift a certain weight with your arms by your next birthday, or lose a certain number of pounds by an upcoming event.(比如,你可以设定一个目标:到下次生日时能用手臂举起一定重量的物体,或在即将到来的某个活动前减重若干磅)”可知,此空需引出“设定具体目标”的必要性。F选项“That’s why you should start setting much more specific goals(这就是为什么你应该开始设定更具体的目标)”承接前文“模糊目标无效”的原因,引出“设定具体目标”的解决方案,与后文举例内容一致,符合语境。故选F项。
【18题详解】
根据前文“For instance, if you set a goal to do a one-legged squat (深蹲) by May and actually achieve it in April, this will make you feel proud and eager to set the next goal,(比如,如果你设定5月前完成单腿深蹲,却在4月就实现了,这会让你感到自豪,并渴望设定下一个目标)”,以及后文“try a rewards system.(试试奖励机制)”可知,此空需假设“单纯的成就感不足以激励”的情况,进而引出奖励机制。E选项“If a general feeling of doing better isn’t enough for you(如果做得更好的普遍成就感对你来说不够)”引出后文的奖励系统,符合语境。故选E项。
【19题详解】
分析语篇结构,此处需为本段小标题,与其他段落小标题格式一致(均为祈使句),且需概括段落核心内容。根据后文“Cristina Chan, a F45 Global Recovery Athlete, says that tracking your workouts in a way that’s easy to see can make a huge difference when exercising alone. She suggests marking a calendar, using a habit tracker app, or even putting sticky notes on a wall to record your active days.(克里斯蒂娜·陈表示,以清晰可见的方式追踪锻炼进度,对独自锻炼的人来说作用很大。她建议标记日历、使用习惯追踪APP,甚至在墙上贴便利贴记录运动日)”可知,本段围绕“追踪目标进展”展开。D选项“Keep track of how you’re doing toward your goals(记录你朝着目标的进展情况)”为祈使句,点明“记录目标进展”的段落主旨,适合作小标题。故选D项。
【20题详解】
根据前文“Seeing how regularly you keep doing it over time is a powerful motivator,(长期看到自己规律锻炼的记录,是一种强大的动力)”可知,此空需进一步说明“记录进度”的具体作用。G选项“It enables you to focus on showing up instead of physical results(它能让你专注于坚持参与,而非身体上的结果)”补充说明动力产生的具体原因,符合语境。故选G项。

47. 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。
David always took a window seat on the school bus. The wind felt cool on his face as he thought about that day’s soccer game. His teammates said he played well. One even said that he would become a famous player one day. That was David’s dream — to play for his country and make his mother proud.
He was deep in thought when Guillermo, David’s friend and fan at school, sat next to him. Guillermo often watched his hero David play soccer. He admired David because David was popular, good at soccer, and had nice shoes. Guillermo felt shy about his own old shoes. They were dirty and had holes. Each time he sat next to David, he tried to hide his shoes under the seat and David didn’t notice it.
Another day on the bus, David happily told Guillermo that he had saved enough money for new shoes and planned to buy them as soon as he got off the bus. At this moment, the bus suddenly hit something on the road. One of Guillermo’s shoes slipped out (滑出) from under the seat. Everyone could see how old and broken it was. Guillermo was so embarrassed (尴尬的) that he covered his face with his hands. David felt sorry for him. They didn’t talk for the rest of the ride. But when they got off, David asked Guillermo to go to the shoe store together.
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。
Though Guillermo felt surprised at David’s invitation, he followed David to the shoe store.

As David went to pay for Guillermo’s shoes, the shopkeeper refused and instead showed him his favourite shoes.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
Though Guillermo felt surprised at David’s invitation, he followed David to the shoe store. There, the shopkeeper brought out the orange soccer shoes David dreamed to buy. But David pointed to another pair and said, “A smaller size, please. They’re for my friend.” Guillermo’s face turned red. He tried to speak, but David stopped him. “You always say I’m your hero. Today, let me be one.” The shopkeeper helped Guillermo try on the new shoes. They fit perfectly.
As David went to pay for Guillermo’s shoes, the shopkeeper refused and instead showed him his favourite shoes. “These are for you,” he said. “A true hero deserves a reward.” The two boys were both surprised and filled with gratitude at the shopkeeper’s words. Touched deeply, David realized that his mother would be prouder of this day’s act of kindness than any soccer goal. David had not only gained a new pair of shoes but also the satisfaction of making a real difference.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,主要讲述了热爱足球的David在目睹朋友Guillermo因破旧鞋子而尴尬后,放弃为自己购买新球鞋的机会,主动为朋友购买新鞋,最终获得意外回报的温暖故事。

②由第二段首句内容“当David准备为Guillermo的鞋子付钱时,店员却拒绝了,并拿出了David最喜欢的那双鞋。”可知,第二段可描写店主被David善举打动后的暖心举动。
2.续写线索:邀友去鞋店——选鞋赠朋友——试穿超合脚——付款被拒绝——店主赠新鞋——感悟善与情

This happened over the weekend with my daughter’s car. She was actually on the way from Denver to Boulder to meet up with us when she decided to take a different road to a favorite restaurant near her house for lunch. Coming out of the restaurant, she noticed with some chagrin that she had a flat. Not just a tire with low tire pressure, but fully flat. She told me, “I saw the tire pressure light on while driving to the restaurant, but thought I could check it once I got to your place. It was clearly not to be.”
Almost 45 minutes away, I could have jumped in the car and shown up to help out, but she’s 23, she has a AAA(美国汽车协会)card and she is able to think for herself when something bad happens. Instead, I decided carefully to be there to help by phone but not to head out to manage the situation. It was her car, her flat and her problem to solve. Most importantly, I had confidence she could manage the situation.
My hope was that she’d have a full-size spare(备胎)and could head out and join me anyway, but it turned out that she only had one of those annoying half-size spares that could get her to a repair shop in a hurry. In any case, the problem was managed and solved finally. The car was repaired and was all road-ready again!
As Harry Potter would say, mischief(恶作剧)managed! Now, fellow parent, would you have been able to avoid driving out to assist in a similar situation?
4. What does the underlined word “chagrin” mean in paragraph 1?
A. Joy. B. Regret. C. Pride. D. Hope.
5. What made the author trust his daughter?
A. The book. B. His help. C. Her ability. D. The repair shop.
6. Why did the author mention Harry Potter?
A. To stress the solution. B. To show the magic.
C. To guide the parents. D. To recommend a book.
7. What can be concluded according to the text?
A. No pain, no gain, B. Out of sight, out of mind.
C Time waits for no man. D. Independence matters.
C
Most adults remember their first memories later or no earlier than preschool age. They agree that it is because babies don’t have memories. Is it true? Probably not!
Studies on animals show the hippocampus, a key brain area for memory, can store early memories and keep them into adulthood. Scientists even brought back forgotten mouse memories by stimulating (刺激) hippocampus cells active during the early event.
But what about humans? My lab spent ten hard years studying awake babies using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) (功能性磁共振成像). This technology is difficult to use for studying memory in babies. Why? Babies are always on the go, and have a short attention time, making good data (数据) hard to collect. Most baby fMRI studies happen during sleep. But we needed babies awake because memories form from real experiences. After over 400 experiences, we found ways to keep awake babies still and happy.
Recently, using this way, we found the baby hippocampus can store memories starting around age one. We showed babies pictures during fMRI. Later, we tested their memory by showing familiar pictures mixed with new ones. If a baby looked longer at a familiar picture, we considered it remembered.
Looking back at the brain scans when pictures were first shown, the hippocampus was more active for the pictures that babies later remembered. This suggests the baby hippocampus can create memories quickly after an experience, especially after 12 months old.
But many questions remain: How long do these memories last? How complex is baby memory? What blocks access? Could we ever recover these early memories? Answering these could help us understand learning, brain development, and memory loss in aging and disease.
8. Why is baby fMRI research difficult according to the text?
A. Babies often cry. B. Adults fail to talk with babies.
C. The equipment is too expensive. D. Babies move a lot and have little focus.
9. The experiment with pictures proved that ______.
A. memories form best at age one B. the hippocampus stores early memories
C. familiar pictures affect brains more D. babies remember things better than adults
10. How does the author support the topic of the text?
A. By listing daily examples. B. By telling a personal story.
C. By presenting research findings. D. By comparing different cultures.
11. What is the best title for the text?
A. When Memories Start to Disappear? B. How Babies Form Good Memories?
C. Can Lost Babies’s Memories Be Found? D. Do Babies Have Memories?

Professor Bing Li and his coworkers used machine learning (ML) to re-examine historical earthquake data from the Yellowstone caldera (火山口) over a 15-year period. The team revisited old data and found about 10 times more earthquake events than those that had been recorded before.
A key finding in the study is that more than half of the earthquakes recorded in Yellowstone were part of earthquake groups. These groups differ from aftershocks, which are smaller earthquakes that follow larger main shocks in the same general area.
“While Yellowstone and other volcanoes each have unique features, the hope is that these findings can be applied elsewhere,” said Li. “By understanding patterns of seismicity, like earthquake groups, we can improve safety practices, better tell the public possible dangers, and even guide geothermal (地热的) energy development away from danger in areas with promising heat flow.”
This increase in recognized events pronounces a key advantage of ML over traditional methods; before its application earthquakes were generally found by trained experts who manually reviewed data. This process took time, was costly, and often found fewer events than are now possible with ML. In recent years, ML. has caused a rush to collect data, as scientists revisit amounts of historical data stored in data centers across the world, uncovering more about unknown seismic areas past and present.
“To a large extent, there is no systematic understanding of how one earthquake causes another in a group. We can only indirectly measure the space and time between events,” said Li. “But now, we have a far more complete record of earthquake activity under the Yellowstone caldera. We can apply quantitative methods (量化法) to quantify and find new, early unseen groups, study them, and see what we can learn from them.”
12. How did the team find more earthquake events?
A. By using ML. B. By studying longer.
C. By checking new data. D. By having more experts.
13. What can we learn about the findings?
A. They are useless. B. They stop public-dangers totally.
C. They may help with energy development. D. They will attract more tourists.
14. What does the fifth paragraph focus on?
A. Experts’ work. B. The benefits of ML.
C. The importance of data. D. Seismic features.
15. How does Prof. Li feel about the record?
A. Dissatisfied. B. Worried. C. Positive. D. Uncertain.

If you always find at-home exercise difficult to stay motivated (有动力的) like the exercise at the gym. Here are some tips for you.
Set specific (具体的) fitness goals. Many people start with unclear fitness goals like “Lose weight. Be healthier.” ____16____, but they don’t help much with planning or getting started.

For instance, if you set a goal to do a one-legged squat (深蹲) by May and actually achieve it in April, this will make you feel proud and eager to set the next goal, ____18____, try a rewards system. If your goal is to lift 30 pounds with your arms by December and you’re currently at 15 pounds, think of rewards for reaching 20 and 25 pounds. Maybe treat yourself to a meal at a favorite restaurant.
____19____. Cristina Chan, a F45 Global Recovery Athlete, says that tracking your workouts in a way that’s easy to see can make a huge difference when exercising alone.

David always took a window seat on the school bus. The wind felt cool on his face as he thought about that day’s soccer game. His teammates said he played well. One even said that he would become a famous player one day. That was David’s dream — to play for his country and make his mother proud.
He was deep in thought when Guillermo, David’s friend and fan at school, sat next to him. Guillermo often watched his hero David play soccer. He admired David because David was popular, good at soccer, and had nice shoes. Guillermo felt shy about his own old shoes. They were dirty and had holes. Each time he sat next to David, he tried to hide his shoes under the seat and David didn’t notice it.
Another day on the bus, David happily told Guillermo that he had saved enough money for new shoes and planned to buy them as soon as he got off the bus. At this moment, the bus suddenly hit something on the road. One of Guillermo’s shoes slipped out (滑出) from under the seat. Everyone could see how old and broken it was. Guillermo was so embarrassed (尴尬的) that he covered his face with his hands. David felt sorry for him. They didn’t talk for the rest of the ride. But when they got off, David asked Guillermo to go to the shoe store together.
