I went over and asked if 1 could sit with her. When I asked how she was doing, she explained that her phone had “crashed”, and she was bored. The moment reminded me how deeply we’re shaped by the digital world. Our devices, including computers, smartphones and the never-ending flow of online content, keep feeding us fresh updates, training us to expect continued stimulation. We’ve become trapped in a cycle of response, as if any pause were a problem to be solved. My thoughts wandered back to my childhood—those afternoons spent staring out the window, doing nothing in particular. What felt like aimless boredom was actually a retooling period when my mind needed to reset before it could rediscover joy and invention. Before I knew it, I was building models, climbing trees, or playing instruments. “What are your personal interests?” I asked my student. Her eyes lit up as she showed me her amazing artwork. “Have you ever felt bored while drawing?” I asked. “Never, ” she said, though ideas didn’t always come easily. “Does that annoy you?” “No,” she responded, “because I know that something will eventually pop into my head. When it does, it’s a real rush of satisfaction.” That was it. That was exactly it. She needed to walk in the desert before arriving at the oasis (绿洲). She needed to experience a complete lack of inspiration before it struck her. This must have been what Ralph Waldo Emerson meant when he wrote, “Guard well your spare moments. They are like uncut diamonds...Improve them and they will become the brightest gems (宝石) in a useful life.” As I left, I told her the truth：“I envy you”—not for her dead device, but for the creative space it had opened. 4. What is the author’s main concern over digital devices? A. They cause unease during quiet pauses. B. They require frequent software updates. C. They often stop working without warning. D. They may replace face-to-face interaction. 5. What role did boredom play in the author’s childhood? A. It taught him to be patient. B. It gave him time to recharge. C. It developed his rich imagination. D. It helped him avoid digital distraction. 6. What can we learn from the student’s response? A. True artists never feel bored. B. Drawing requires special training. C. Inspiration comes after waiting. D. Satisfaction begins when desire ends. 7. What advice is the author implying by saying“I envy you”? A. Use phone less. B. Hold tight to youth. C. Search for more treasure. D. Spare time for creativity. 【答案】4. A 5. B 6. C 7. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇夹叙夹议的文章。本文叙述了作者与一位学生的校园邂逅，反思数字时代对“空白”的恐惧，指出创造力正孕育于放下电子设备的静默之中。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Our devices, including computers, smartphones and the never-ending flow of online content, keep feeding us fresh updates, training us to expect continued stimulation. We’ve become trapped in a cycle of response, as if any pause were a problem to be solved. (我们的设备不断推送新内容，训练我们持续寻求刺激；我们陷入了“一停就要回应”的循环，好像任何停顿都是必须解决的问题)”可知，作者担忧的是数字设备让人在安静时感到不安。故选A项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“My thoughts wandered back to my childhood—those afternoons spent staring out the window, doing nothing in particular. What felt like aimless boredom was actually a retooling period when my mind needed to reset before it could rediscover joy and invention.(我回想起自己的童年——那些下午，我凝视着窗外，没做什么特别的事。那种看似漫无目的的无聊，实际上是一段重新调整的时期，那时我的大脑需要重置，之后才能重新发现快乐与创造力)”可知，童年那段无所事事的空白，实质上是大脑重启，给作者“充电”时间。故选B项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段学生说的“I know that something will eventually pop into my head. When it does, it’s a real rush of satisfaction.(我知道灵感终究会出现；当它到来时，会带来真正的满足感)”可知，灵感会在耐心等待之后降临。故选C项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第六段作者道别时所说“As I left, I told her the truth：‘I envy you’—not for her dead device, but for the creative space it had opened. (当我离开时，我向她坦诚：‘我羡慕你’——不是羡慕她那坏掉的手机，而是羡慕它打开的那片创意空间)”可知，作者明确说明“羡慕的不是学生故障的手机，而是手机故障带来的创作空间，可见其隐含建议是“为创造力留出时间。故选D项。 C A new study shows choosing exercise you enjoy is vital for lasting benefits like strength gains and stress relief. “People try to become more active but struggle to sustain the changes,” said Dr. Ronca from UCLA. “We examined how personality affects this to develop better health interventions.” In this study, researchers assessed 132 participants’ fitness level and personalities, and then divided them into two groups: half took part in an eight-week program combining cycling and strength training, while the other half were a non-exercise control group. During the exercise program, participants were asked to rate their enjoyment of each exercise session, before having their fitness level tested again once the program had been completed. Clear links appeared between personality and preference. Extroverts (外向者)particularly enjoyed high-intensity exercise sessions. Participants who scored high on anxiety engaged well with the program but preferred short bursts of intensity over longer efforts. They also preferred not being monitored, suggesting these individuals might appreciate being given space for independence and privacy. Highly hardworking and reliable individuals demonstrated strong self-discipline and overall fitness gains, likely motivated by health benefits rather than enjoyment itself. At the beginning of the study, the stress levels of the intervention group and the control group were similar. However, the only participants to experience a significant reduction in stress levels after exercising were those with high tendency to worry, suggesting tailored exercise offers them particular stress relief benefits. When choosing a sport, the public should consider personal interests rather than blindly following trends. The most important thing people can do to improve their activity levels is to find something that they enjoy, making exercise a truly sustainable habit. “We found some clear links between personality and exercise preferences, which could potentially be used to personalize physical activity recommendations and help people to become and remain more active,” said Dr. Ronca. 8. How were participants’ responses measured? A. By recording their heart rate. B. By assessing their sense of pleasure. C. By attending interview sessions. D. By tracking exercise preferences. 9. Who is most likely to stick to a 4-hour boxing group class? A. Mr. Yu, an extrovert who avoids tiring workout. B. Kevin, a shy boy who loves watching boxing games. C. Monica, a trendy blogger who values personal space. D. Ms. Li, a disciplined teacher who seeks weight loss. 10. What can we learn about participants with high anxiety? A. Their stress got relieved after exercises. B. They preferred intense exercises. C. Their fitness improved more with company. D. They made health benefits a priority. 11. What is the best title for the text? A. Why High-Intensity Workouts Suit Extroverts B. How Fitness Testing Improves Exercise Enjoyment C. Personality Preferences: Key to Sustainable Exercise D. Exercise Enjoyment: Benefits of Monitoring Exercise 【答案】8. B 9. D 10. A 11. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍研究发现选择自己喜欢的锻炼方式，更容易坚持下去。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“During the exercise program, participants were asked to rate their enjoyment of each exercise session, before having their fitness level tested again once the program had been completed.(在锻炼项目中，参与者被要求评价他们对每次锻炼的享受程度，然后在项目完成后再次测试他们的健康水平)”可知，参与者的反应是通过评价他们的享受程度来测量的。故选B。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“Extroverts (外向者)particularly enjoyed high-intensity exercise sessions. Participants who scored high on anxiety engaged well with the program but preferred short bursts of intensity over longer efforts.(外向的人特别喜欢高强度的锻炼。焦虑得分高的参与者对这个项目的反应很好，但他们更喜欢短时间的高强度锻炼，而不是长时间的锻炼)”和“Highly hardworking and reliable individuals demonstrated strong self-discipline and overall fitness gains, likely motivated by health benefits rather than enjoyment itself.(高度努力和可靠的个人表现出强烈的自律和整体健康收益，可能是出于健康益处而不是享受本身)”可知，外向的人喜欢高强度的锻炼，焦虑的人喜欢短时间的锻炼，高度努力和可靠的人表现出强烈的自律和整体健康收益。由此推知，严于律己且正在减肥的李老师最有可能坚持4小时的拳击课。故选D。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“However, the only participants to experience a significant reduction in stress levels after exercising were those with high tendency to worry, suggesting tailored exercise offers them particular stress relief benefits.(然而，唯一在锻炼后压力水平显著降低的参与者是那些容易焦虑的人，这表明量身定制的锻炼对他们的压力释放有特别的好处)”可知，高度焦虑的参与者在锻炼后压力得到了释放。故选A。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，并根据第一段中“A new study shows choosing exercise you enjoy is vital for lasting benefits like strength gains and stress relief.(一项新的研究表明，选择你喜欢的运动对增强力量和缓解压力等持久的好处至关重要)”和最后一段中“When choosing a sport, the public should consider personal interests rather than blindly following trends. The most important thing people can do to improve their activity levels is to find something that they enjoy, making exercise a truly sustainable habit.(在选择一项运动时，公众应该考虑个人兴趣，而不是盲目跟风。为了提高运动水平，人们能做的最重要的事情就是找到自己喜欢的事情，让锻炼成为一个真正可持续的习惯)”可知，文章主要介绍研究发现选择自己喜欢的锻炼方式，更容易坚持下去，即个性是坚持锻炼的关键。C项“个性偏好：持续锻炼的关键”可以作为本文的最佳标题。故选C。 D A research team from AMOLF in Amsterdam has created a soft robot that walks, jumps, and swims — all without a brain, electronics, or AI. As described in the study published in Science, it has no computer, no software, and no sensors. And still, it moves with surprising autonomy and speed, simply because of its body and how it interacts with the world. So, what’s really driving it? Underneath the movement is a principle you’ve probably seen, though you might have overlooked. Think of those shaky, air-filled tube dancers swinging freely around in front of gas stations. The same physics that makes them move could hold the key to the next generation of autonomous robots. Powered by a continuous stream of air alone, each of the robot’s soft, tubular legs begins to swing. On its own, each leg waves around randomly. But when many are coupled together, their motions quickly synchronize. “Suddenly, order emerges from chaos,” says the first author Alberto Comoretto. “No controllers, no programming. Complex collective motions arise just from simple interactions.” Even more surprising, the synchronization adapts. If the robot runs into an obstacle, it adjusts itself. When it moves from land to water, it quickly shifts to freestyle swimming. All the movement emerges from the tight coupling between body and environment. The research challenges the conventional idea that robots need complicated control systems to realize lifelike behavior. “Simple objects, like tubes, can give rise to complex and functional behavior, provided we understand how to take advantage of the underlying physics,” says principal investigator Bas Overvelde. “There is no brain, no computer. Essentially, it’s a machine. But when properly designed, it can outperform many robotic systems and behave like an artificial creature.” Possible future applications range from smart pills to space technology: safe microrobots that can be swallowed and release drugs after autonomously reaching the target tissue, robotic wearable suits matching the walking steps without processors, reducing power consumption while enhancing human strength. More broadly, these examples illustrate how this research opens doors to mechanical systems that behave as if they had a computer, without actually needing one. 12. Why does the author mention tube dancers in paragraph 2? A. To stress the wide use of robots. B. To introduce a daily application. C. To show the need for observation. D. To explain the working principle. 13. What does the underlined word “synchronize” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Slow down. B. Match up. C. Change direction. D. Consume energy. 14. What enables the soft robot to adjust itself? A. Its ability to get over obstacles. B. Its connection with a computer. C. Its interaction with the environment. D. Its reliable performance underwater. 15 What should robots be like according to Bas Overvelde? A. Physics-based. B. Cost-effective. C. Function-focused. D. Environmentally-friendly. 【答案】12. D 13. B 14. C 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲的是阿姆斯特丹AMOLF研究所的一个研究团队开发出的一款无需大脑、电子设备或人工智能，仅凭自身机体与环境的交互就能实现行走、跳跃和游泳等复杂动作的软体机器人。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“Think of those shaky, air-filled tube dancers swinging freely around in front of gas stations. The same physics that makes them move could hold the key to the next generation of autonomous robots.(想想加油站前那些摇摆不定、充气的管状舞者自由摆动的场景吧。让它们动起来的物理原理，或许正是开启下一代自主机器人大门的关键所在。)”可知，作者在第二段提到充气的管状舞者的目的是解释工作原理。故选D。 【13题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段中划线词上文“On its own, each leg waves around randomly.(单独的时候，每条腿都是随机摆动的。)”、“But when many are coupled together(但当多条腿连接在一起时)”中表转折的but以及划线词下文““Suddenly, order emerges from chaos,” says the first author Alberto Comoretto.(“突然间，混乱中出现了秩序，”第一作者阿尔贝托·科莫雷托（Alberto Comoretto）说。)”可知，单独的时候每条腿都是随机摆动，但当多条腿连接在一起时多个腿部动作很快协调一致、有序；划线词所在句子表示“但当多条腿连接在一起时，它们的动作很快就会同步”，synchronize的意思是“同步，与……一致”，和Match up“相同，相似”意思相近。故选B。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“If the robot runs into an obstacle, it adjusts itself. When it moves from land to water, it quickly shifts to freestyle swimming. All the movement emerges from the tight coupling between body and environment.(如果机器人遇到障碍物，它会自行调整。当它从陆地进入水中时，能迅速切换到自由泳模式。所有这些动作都源于机器人机体与环境的紧密耦合。)”可知，使软体机器人能够自我调整的是它与环境的相互作用。故选C。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段““Simple objects, like tubes, can give rise to complex and functional behavior, provided we understand how to take advantage of the underlying physics,” says principal investigator Bas Overvelde.(“像管子这样的简单物体，只要我们懂得如何利用其背后的物理原理，就能产生复杂且具有功能性的行为，”首席研究员Bas Overvelde表示。)”可知，Bas Overvelde认为机器人应该是基于物理的。故选A。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 A digital nomad (数字游民) is a person who travels freely while working remotely using information and communications technology. Such people usually depend on Internet connectivity, remote work tools and online platforms to complete their job. And they are often technically skilled. Today, there are over 35 million digital nomads worldwide. ____16____ The digital nomad lifestyle has a ton of benefits. Let’s be honest, who doesn’t want to get away from the everyday 9-5 schedule and the rules of office life? ____17____ They mostly love the convenience of choosing where to work from, the control over their work hours and the ability to design their own days. ____18____ By exploring different cultures, they can challenge their comfortable habits and enrich their understanding of life. Besides, travel develops problem-solving skills, independence, and resourcefulness. These are all qualities and skills that can be useful in any area of life. However, being a digital nomad is not without challenges. ____19____ Being away from family, friends, and other support systems can be hard. This is especially true when joined with work and life stress from continuous moves. A few things that can help include co-working, online communities, and valuing social connections. Many digital nomads are freelancers (自由职业者) or small business owners, meaning their pay isn’t as regular as working for a company. The reality of freelancing means you’ll spend unpaid time finding jobs and that work won’t always keep pouring in. ____20____ For those who want to enter this field, it’s wise to build a customer base beforehand and look for different money-making sources. A. And the number is expected to continue to grow. B. Most digital nomads report feeling lonely at times. C. Having hard skills or a degree is not always necessary. D. Therefore, it’s best to have some savings for a rainy day. E. Naturally, freedom is a top advantage for digital nomads. F. Digital nomads experience lots of personal growth possibilities. G. Studies suggest 81% of digital nomads are satisfied with their pay. 【答案】16. A 17. E 18. F 19. B 20. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了数字游民的生活方式，包括其定义、优势、面临的挑战以及应对策略。 【16题详解】 上文“Today, there are over 35 million digital nomads worldwide. (目前全球有超过3500万数字游民。)”说的是数字游民的数量。选项A“And the number is expected to continue to grow. (而且这一数量预计将继续增长。)”继续说明数字游民的数量，并且其中的“the number”指代上文的“35 million digital nomads”，符合语境，故选A。 【17题详解】 上文提出反问“who doesn’t want to get away from the everyday 9-5 schedule and the rules of office life? (谁不想摆脱每天9-5的作息和办公室规则呢？)”说明想要摆脱束缚的自由；下文“They mostly love the convenience of choosing where to work from, the control over their work hours and the ability to design their own days. (他们大多喜欢选择工作地点的便利，对工作时间的控制，以及设计自己日子的能力。)”是自由的具体体现。因此选项E“Naturally, freedom is a top advantage for digital nomads. (自然，自由是数字游民的首要优势。)”既承接上文的“摆脱9-5和办公室规则”，又总领后文的“选择工作地点、掌控时间”，符合逻辑，故选E。 【18题详解】 根据下文“By exploring different cultures, they can challenge their comfortable habits and enrich their understanding of life. Besides, travel develops problem-solving skills, independence, and resourcefulness. These are all qualities and skills that can be useful in any area of life. (通过探索不同的文化，他们可以挑战自己的舒适习惯，丰富他们对生活的理解。此外，旅行还能培养解决问题的能力、独立性和足智多谋。这些都是在生活的任何领域都有用的品质和技能。)” 阐述了个人成长的可能性的具体表现。选项F“Digital nomads experience lots of personal growth possibilities. (数字游民有很多个人成长的可能性。)”起到总起后文的作用，故选F。 【19题详解】 上文“However, being a digital nomad is not without challenges. (然而，成为一名数字游民并非没有挑战。)”指出数字游民也面临挑战；下文“Being away from family, friends, and other support systems can be hard. (远离家人、朋友和其他支持系统会很艰难。)具体阐述了他们面临的挑战。选项B“Most digital nomads report feeling lonely at times. (大多数数字游民表示有时会感到孤独。)”正是远离亲友的直接结果，符合题意，故选B。 【20题详解】 上文“Many digital nomads are freelancers (自由职业者) or small business owners, meaning their pay isn’t as regular as working for a company. The reality of freelancing means you’ll spend unpaid time finding jobs and that work won’t always keep pouring in. (许多数字游民是自由职业者或小企业主，这意味着他们的工资不像在公司工作那样稳定。自由职业的现实意味着你要花无薪时间找工作，而且工作不会总是源源不断地涌入。)”说明数字游民收入不稳定。选项 D“Therefore, it’s best to have some savings for a rainy day. (因此，最好存一些钱以备不时之需。)”和上文构成因果关系，符合题意，故选D。 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。 When I decided to join a Buy Nothing group, a thick fog of doubt hung over me.

Our group believes that using AI to write essays has both advantages and disadvantages. While it can provide quick ideas, over-reliance may hinder students’ thinking skills. What matters most is learning to express ideas independently. We suggest that students use AI as a tool for inspiration, not answers. Teachers should also set clear rules, like requiring students to explain their essays afterward. This ensures that AI helps rather than replaces learning. In conclusion, we think that AI can be useful if used wisely. What counts is maintaining the balance between technology and self-improvement.

Her elder sister Serena was now dancing at a college. Though Kelly’s mom always wanted her to follow in her sister’s footsteps and Kelly herself was good at ballet, her love for ballet had faded years before, and she was eager for a new challenge. One day at school, as Kelly left the dance studio, she walked past the gym, fascinated by boxers training inside the boxing ring (拳击赛场). She was deeply impressed by how hard they hit and how fast they moved. In fact, she’d long been attracted to boxing. She pulled a piece of paper from her backpack. On the familiar Oakwood High School Club Sign-up Sheet was the phrase: BOXING CLUB TRYOUT (选拔). That was what Kelly really wanted to do. She knew her mom had high expectations for her when it came to ballet. Tired of trying to keep with her sister, Kelly was ready to carve (开辟) her own path. The next day, she gathered her courage and told Serena about her new passion. At first, Serena didn’t understand and thought she was just joking. But when she saw Kelly was serious, she replied, “You know Mom wants you to be a ballet dancer, right? Besides, boxing is only for boys, and you’re so good at ballet. Lean into your strength, Kelly.” “But this is where I want to put my strength,” Kelly insisted, “and what exactly does ‘only for boys’ mean, anyway? Boxing is a sport for everyone!” Gradually, touched by her determination and passion, Serena began to understand and support her. Kelly could feel it. Her sister was going to respect her decision, no matter what. But that was nothing compared to the preparations for the tryout, where she was required to show her footwork (步法) and punching (击打) abilities with other candidates (候选人). Boxing didn’t come natural to Kelly, but she had made úp her mind to stick with her choice. 注意： 1．续写词数应为150左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Para l: Then Kelly began her training for the tryout, keeping it a secret from her mom. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Para 2: The following Monday, results of the boxing tryout were posted. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Para l: Then Kelly began her training, keeping it a secret from her mom. Every day after school, Kelly dashed to the boxing gym, occupying herself with the intense training. Even when she was made fun of by boys in the gym, she bit her lip tightly and continued her training. Finally, the tryout came. Extremely nervous though, she stepped into the boxing ring, moved fast and punched hard to the surprise of other candidates. After the tryout, Kelly left the gym confidently, knowing she did her best. Para 2: The following Monday, results of the boxing tryout were posted. To her delight, Kelly found her name on the list. At dinner that day, Kelly gathered her courage and said to her mom, “I'm sorry, Mom. I've made the boxing team and I'm ready to carve my own path.” At first, a flicker of disbelief and shock crossed her mom's face, but after a long, heart-to-heart talk, she gave Kelly a bear hug and whispered softly, “I'm so proud of you for being yourself. ” 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Kelly的家人希望她像姐姐一样发挥自己的特长学习芭蕾，但是她自己却爱好上拳击。开始受到家人的反对，但很快得到姐姐的支持，然后偷偷参加拳击选拔，坚持自己的选择。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“然后Kelly开始了选拔赛的训练，并对她妈妈保密。”可知，第一段可描写Kelly瞒着妈妈接受拳击训练并参加选拔赛的过程。 ②由第二段首句内容 “接下来的星期一，拳击选拔赛的结果出来了。”可知，第二段可描写Kelly用选拔赛的结果说服妈妈，得到妈妈的同意。 2.续写线索：坚持学习拳击——练习拳击——参加选拔赛——查看结果被选中——说服妈妈——妈妈同意 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①.急速去：dash to/rush to ②.嘲笑：make fun of/laugh at ③.感到骄傲：be proud of/take a pride in 情绪类 ①.紧张：showing one’s nervousness / nervous ②.自信地：confidently / with confidence 【点睛】[高分句型1].

B One day, I was walking across campus when I spotted one of my students sitting on a bench, her face turned toward the sun, her eyes closed. I went over and asked if 1 could sit with her. When I asked how she was doing, she explained that her phone had “crashed”, and she was bored. The moment reminded me how deeply we’re shaped by the digital world. Our devices, including computers, smartphones and the never-ending flow of online content, keep feeding us fresh updates, training us to expect continued stimulation. We’ve become trapped in a cycle of response, as if any pause were a problem to be solved. My thoughts wandered back to my childhood—those afternoons spent staring out the window, doing nothing in particular. What felt like aimless boredom was actually a retooling period when my mind needed to reset before it could rediscover joy and invention. Before I knew it, I was building models, climbing trees, or playing instruments. “What are your personal interests?” I asked my student. Her eyes lit up as she showed me her amazing artwork. “Have you ever felt bored while drawing?” I asked. “Never, ” she said, though ideas didn’t always come easily. “Does that annoy you?” “No,” she responded, “because I know that something will eventually pop into my head. When it does, it’s a real rush of satisfaction.” That was it. That was exactly it. She needed to walk in the desert before arriving at the oasis (绿洲). She needed to experience a complete lack of inspiration before it struck her. This must have been what Ralph Waldo Emerson meant when he wrote, “Guard well your spare moments. They are like uncut diamonds...Improve them and they will become the brightest gems (宝石) in a useful life.” As I left, I told her the truth：“I envy you”—not for her dead device, but for the creative space it had opened. 4. What is the author’s main concern over digital devices? A. They cause unease during quiet pauses. B. They require frequent software updates. C. They often stop working without warning. D. They may replace face-to-face interaction. 5. What role did boredom play in the author’s childhood? A. It taught him to be patient. B. It gave him time to recharge. C. It developed his rich imagination. D. It helped him avoid digital distraction. 6. What can we learn from the student’s response? A. True artists never feel bored. B. Drawing requires special training. C. Inspiration comes after waiting. D. Satisfaction begins when desire ends. 7. What advice is the author implying by saying“I envy you”? A. Use phone less. B. Hold tight to youth. C. Search for more treasure. D. Spare time for creativity. C A new study shows choosing exercise you enjoy is vital for lasting benefits like strength gains and stress relief. “People try to become more active but struggle to sustain the changes,” said Dr. Ronca from UCLA. “We examined how personality affects this to develop better health interventions.” In this study, researchers assessed 132 participants’ fitness level and personalities, and then divided them into two groups: half took part in an eight-week program combining cycling and strength training, while the other half were a non-exercise control group. During the exercise program, participants were asked to rate their enjoyment of each exercise session, before having their fitness level tested again once the program had been completed. Clear links appeared between personality and preference. Extroverts (外向者)particularly enjoyed high-intensity exercise sessions. Participants who scored high on anxiety engaged well with the program but preferred short bursts of intensity over longer efforts. They also preferred not being monitored, suggesting these individuals might appreciate being given space for independence and privacy. Highly hardworking and reliable individuals demonstrated strong self-discipline and overall fitness gains, likely motivated by health benefits rather than enjoyment itself. At the beginning of the study, the stress levels of the intervention group and the control group were similar. However, the only participants to experience a significant reduction in stress levels after exercising were those with high tendency to worry, suggesting tailored exercise offers them particular stress relief benefits. When choosing a sport, the public should consider personal interests rather than blindly following trends. The most important thing people can do to improve their activity levels is to find something that they enjoy, making exercise a truly sustainable habit. “We found some clear links between personality and exercise preferences, which could potentially be used to personalize physical activity recommendations and help people to become and remain more active,” said Dr. Ronca. 8. How were participants’ responses measured? A. By recording their heart rate. B. By assessing their sense of pleasure. C. By attending interview sessions. D. By tracking exercise preferences. 9. Who is most likely to stick to a 4-hour boxing group class? A. Mr. Yu, an extrovert who avoids tiring workout. B. Kevin, a shy boy who loves watching boxing games. C. Monica, a trendy blogger who values personal space. D. Ms. Li, a disciplined teacher who seeks weight loss. 10. What can we learn about participants with high anxiety? A. Their stress got relieved after exercises. B. They preferred intense exercises. C. Their fitness improved more with company. D. They made health benefits a priority. 11. What is the best title for the text? A. Why High-Intensity Workouts Suit Extroverts B. How Fitness Testing Improves Exercise Enjoyment C. Personality Preferences: Key to Sustainable Exercise D. Exercise Enjoyment: Benefits of Monitoring Exercise D A research team from AMOLF in Amsterdam has created a soft robot that walks, jumps, and swims — all without a brain, electronics, or AI. As described in the study published in Science, it has no computer, no software, and no sensors. And still, it moves with surprising autonomy and speed, simply because of its body and how it interacts with the world. So, what’s really driving it? Underneath the movement is a principle you’ve probably seen, though you might have overlooked. Think of those shaky, air-filled tube dancers swinging freely around in front of gas stations. The same physics that makes them move could hold the key to the next generation of autonomous robots. Powered by a continuous stream of air alone, each of the robot’s soft, tubular legs begins to swing. On its own, each leg waves around randomly. But when many are coupled together, their motions quickly synchronize. “Suddenly, order emerges from chaos,” says the first author Alberto Comoretto. “No controllers, no programming. Complex collective motions arise just from simple interactions.” Even more surprising, the synchronization adapts. If the robot runs into an obstacle, it adjusts itself. When it moves from land to water, it quickly shifts to freestyle swimming. All the movement emerges from the tight coupling between body and environment. The research challenges the conventional idea that robots need complicated control systems to realize lifelike behavior. “Simple objects, like tubes, can give rise to complex and functional behavior, provided we understand how to take advantage of the underlying physics,” says principal investigator Bas Overvelde. “There is no brain, no computer. Essentially, it’s a machine. But when properly designed, it can outperform many robotic systems and behave like an artificial creature.” Possible future applications range from smart pills to space technology: safe microrobots that can be swallowed and release drugs after autonomously reaching the target tissue, robotic wearable suits matching the walking steps without processors, reducing power consumption while enhancing human strength. More broadly, these examples illustrate how this research opens doors to mechanical systems that behave as if they had a computer, without actually needing one. 12. Why does the author mention tube dancers in paragraph 2? A. To stress the wide use of robots. B. To introduce a daily application. C. To show the need for observation. D. To explain the working principle. 13. What does the underlined word “synchronize” in paragraph 3 mean? A Slow down. B. Match up. C. Change direction. D. Consume energy. 14. What enables the soft robot to adjust itself? A. Its ability to get over obstacles. B. Its connection with a computer. C Its interaction with the environment. D. Its reliable performance underwater. 15. What should robots be like according to Bas Overvelde? A. Physics-based. B. Cost-effective. C. Function-focused. D. Environmentally-friendly. 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。 A digital nomad (数字游民) is a person who travels freely while working remotely using information and communications technology.

Her elder sister Serena was now dancing at a college. Though Kelly’s mom always wanted her to follow in her sister’s footsteps and Kelly herself was good at ballet, her love for ballet had faded years before, and she was eager for a new challenge. One day at school, as Kelly left the dance studio, she walked past the gym, fascinated by boxers training inside the boxing ring (拳击赛场). She was deeply impressed by how hard they hit and how fast they moved. In fact, she’d long been attracted to boxing. She pulled a piece of paper from her backpack. On the familiar Oakwood High School Club Sign-up Sheet was the phrase: BOXING CLUB TRYOUT (选拔). That was what Kelly really wanted to do. She knew her mom had high expectations for her when it came to ballet. Tired of trying to keep with her sister, Kelly was ready to carve (开辟) her own path. The next day, she gathered her courage and told Serena about her new passion. At first, Serena didn’t understand and thought she was just joking. But when she saw Kelly was serious, she replied, “You know Mom wants you to be a ballet dancer, right? Besides, boxing is only for boys, and you’re so good at ballet. Lean into your strength, Kelly.” “But this is where I want to put my strength,” Kelly insisted, “and what exactly does ‘only for boys’ mean, anyway? Boxing is a sport for everyone!” Gradually, touched by her determination and passion, Serena began to understand and support her. Kelly could feel it. Her sister was going to respect her decision, no matter what. But that was nothing compared to the preparations for the tryout, where she was required to show her footwork (步法) and punching (击打) abilities with other candidates (候选人). Boxing didn’t come natural to Kelly, but she had made úp her mind to stick with her choice. 注意： 1．续写词数应为150左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Para l: Then Kelly began her training for the tryout, keeping it a secret from her mom. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Para 2: The following Monday, results of the boxing tryout were posted. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
