【答案】18. C 19. A 20. B
【解析】
原文】 Yellowstone National Park became America’s first national park in 1872. The National Park Service was formed 44 years later. The first organized exploration of the area took place in 1870. Those first organized explorers must have seen how special the land was. Yellowstone contains beautiful mountains, deep canyons, lakes, and rivers. The name Yellowstone comes from the river running through the area which became known as the Yellowstone River. Yellowstone is host to many different species of plants. However, the park is special mostly because of what lies underneath it. It sits on top of an ancient supervolcano, known as the Yellowstone Caldera, which remains an active volcano. It is believed that the last time the volcano exploded or erupted was one half million years ago. The area has had three major eruptions in the last three million years. Experts say it may erupt again in another 1,000 to 10,000 years. But each year, there are thousands of earthquakes at Yellowstone. Most are too small to be felt by people visiting the park.

I was ten when I first met Mr. Schmidt. He was a towering, stern-looking man who had moved in next door. My friends and I were terrified of him, convinced he was the most bad-tempered person alive. We’d dare each other to ring his doorbell and run, but I never had the courage.
One Saturday, my soccer ball accidentally flew over his fence and into his prized rose garden. My heart sank. Getting it back meant facing him. I spent an hour gathering my nerve before walking to his front door, my knees shaking. I rang the bell, preparing to run.
The door creaked open. Mr. Schmidt looked down at me, frowning. “What?” he boomed. I stammered about my ball. He stared for what felt like an eternity, then said, “Well, come on, then. Don’t trample the roses.”
I followed him nervously through his perfect house to the backyard. And then I saw it located among the vibrant roses was the most beautiful, complicated model of a sailing ship I had ever seen. It was half-finished, sitting on a workbench. “The Cutty Sark,” he said, noticing my gaze. His voice was different — softer. “I build them.”
He picked up a tiny piece of wood and showed me how he carved it. I was fascinated. That afternoon he didn’t just return my ball; he showed me his workshop, filled with models of historic ships. He spoke about each one with a passion that transformed him completely. The stern neighbor was gone, replaced by a gentle, patient artist.
I visited Mr. Schmidt every weekend after that. He taught me about woodworking, patience, and history. I learned that his sternness was just a shell, hiding a kind and lonely man who had lost his wife years ago. We became unlikely friends. He taught me that courage isn’t about not being afraid; it’s about facing your fear, and that sometimes, on the other side of that fear, you find something — or someone — truly wonderful.
24. Why were the children initially afraid of Mr. Schmidt?
A. He often punished children for entering without permission.
B. He had a fierce dog that barked at everyone.
C. His appearance and behavior seemed unfriendly.
D. He was known for yelling at children playing nearby.
25. What was the immediate cause for the narrator to finally approach Mr. Schmidt?
A. He was dared by his friends.
B. He needed to get his soccer ball back.
C. He was curious about the model ships.
D. His parents asked him to deliver something.
26. What key change did the narrator observe in Mr. Schmidt during their first real interaction?
A. Mr. Schmidt’s voice and attitude softened when talking about his models.
B. Mr. Schmidt apologized for being bad-tempered.
C. Mr. Schmidt immediately became very talkative and friendly.
D. Mr. Schmidt offered him a tour of the entire house.
27. What is the main message of the story?
A. Model ship building is a rewarding hobby.
B. Elderly people are often lonely and need company.
C. It is important to respect your neighbors’ property.
D. Appearances can be misleading, and courage can lead to unexpected friendships.
【答案】24. C 25. B 26. A 27. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。作者讲述了自己从害怕邻居施密特先生,到因足球意外接触他,最终发现其温柔内心并建立友谊的故事,核心传递“外表具有欺骗性,勇气能带来意外友谊”的道理。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“He was a towering, stern-looking man who had moved in next door. My friends and I were terrified of him, convinced he was the most bad-tempered person alive.(他身材高大,神情严肃,刚搬到隔壁。我和朋友们都很怕他,认为他是世界上脾气最坏的人。)”可知,施密特先生高大、表情严肃,孩子们主观认定他是世上脾气最坏的人而怕他;由此可知,孩子们最初害怕施密特先生是因为他的外表和行为似乎很不友好。故选C。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“One Saturday, my soccer ball accidentally flew over his fence and into his prized rose garden. My heart sank. Getting it back meant facing him. I spent an hour gathering my nerve before walking to his front door, my knees shaking.(一个星期六,我的足球不小心飞过他的篱笆,掉进了他珍爱的玫瑰园。我的心一沉。拿回它意味着要面对他。我花了一个小时才鼓起勇气走到他的前门,我的膝盖在颤抖。)”可知,作者的足球飞过篱笆掉落在施密特先生所珍爱的玫瑰园里,取球迫使他不得不面对施密特;由此可知,作者最终接近施密特的直接原因是他需要拿回自己的足球。故选B。
【26题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段““The Cutty Sark,” he said, noticing my gaze. His voice was different — softer. “I build them.”(“卡蒂萨克号,”他说,注意到我的目光。他的声音不同了——更温和了。“我建造它们。”)”以及第五段“He picked up a tiny piece of wood and showed me how he carved it. I was fascinated. That afternoon, he didn’t just return my ball; he showed me his workshop, filled with models of historic ships. He spoke about each one with a passion that transformed him completely. The stern neighbor was gone, replaced by a gentle, patient artist.(他拿起一小块木头,向我展示他是如何雕刻的。我被迷住了。那天下午,他不仅把球还给了我;他给我看了他的工作室,里面摆满了历史悠久的船只模型。他满怀激情地谈论着每一个模型,这彻底改变了他。那位严厉的邻居不见了,取而代之的是一位温柔、耐心的艺术家。)”可知,在作者与施密特先生的第一次真正的互动中观察到,当施密特先生谈到他的模型时,他的声音和态度都变温和了。故选A。
【27题详解】
主旨大意题。 通读全文,尤其根据最后一段中“ I learned that his sternness was just a shell, hiding a kind and lonely man who had lost his wife years ago. We became unlikely friends. He taught me that courage isn’t about not being afraid; it’s about facing your fear, and that sometimes, on the other side of that fear, you find something — or someone — truly wonderful.(我了解到他的严厉只是一个外壳,隐藏着一个多年前失去妻子的善良而孤独的人。我们成为了意想不到的朋友。他教会我,勇气不是不害怕;它是关于面对你的恐惧,有时,在恐惧的另一边,你会发现一些东西——或者一些人——真的很棒。)”可知,文章主要讲述了一个男孩因一次意外(足球掉进邻居花园)而被迫与他所畏惧的、外表严厉的施密特先生接触。这次接触让他发现了施密特先生不为人知的另一面:一位内心温柔、充满热情的模型船艺术家。故事的核心在于打破刻板印象和勇气带来的回报,说明了不能以貌取人,并且真正的友谊可能始于一次勇敢的尝试。故选D。

In the world of psychology, a fascinating concept known as the “growth mindset” has gained considerable attention, primarily through the work of psychologist Carol Dweck. It stands in contrast to a “fixed mindset.” Individuals with a fixed mindset believe that their basic qualities, like intelligence or talent, are simply fixed traits. They spend their time documenting their intelligence or talent instead of developing them. They also believe that talent alone creates success — without effort.
On the other hand, those with a growth mindset believe that their most basic abilities can be developed through dedication and hard work. This view creates a love of learning and a resilience that is essential for great accomplishment. Challenges are seen not as threats, but as opportunities to learn and grow. When faced with a setback, a person with a growth mindset is likely to analyze what went wrong and try a different approach.
The implications of these mindsets are profound, especially in education. Students with a growth mindset tend to achieve more than those with a fixed mindset because they worry less about looking smart and put more energy into learning. When teachers praise students for the process they engage in — their effort, strategies, focus, and perseverance — they foster a growth mindset. Conversely, praising only intelligence or talent can make students doubt themselves when they face difficulty, as they may attribute failure to a lack of innate ability.
In professional settings, the impact of these mindsets is equally striking. Employees with a growth mindset actively seek feedback, view colleagues’ successes as sources of inspiration rather than threats, and are more willing to take on challenging projects — even if they might initially struggle. This willingness to step outside comfort zones often leads to faster career growth and innovation for both individuals and teams. Leaders who cultivate a growth mindset within their organizations, by celebrating effort over just results and normalizing setbacks as part of the learning process, build more resilient and adaptive teams.
Fortunately, mindsets are not set in stone. People can learn to adopt more of a growth mindset by becoming aware of their own internal dialogue and changing how they respond to challenges. Embracing the phrase “not yet” can be powerful; receiving a low grade doesn’t mean “I failed,” but rather “I haven’t learned this yet.” Over time, this shift doesn’t just boost personal or professional performance; it shapes a mindset where continuous improvement becomes second nature, turning potential limitations into stepping stones for success.
28. According to the passage, what do people with a fixed mindset think about success?
A. Success comes from continuous learning and hard work.
B. Success depends on innate intelligence or talent alone.
C. Success is achieved by analyzing setbacks and trying new approaches.
D. Success relies on the support from teachers and family.
29. What can we infer from the passage about teachers’ praise?
A. Praising students’ intelligence will make them more confident in facing difficulties.
B. Teachers should avoid praising students’ effort to prevent them from being lazy.
C. Praising students’ learning process will help them develop a growth mindset.
D. Teachers’ praise has no impact on students’ mindset development.
30. Please guess the meaning of the underlined phrase “set in stone” in the sentence “Fortunately, mindsets are not set in stone.”
A. Unchangeable. B. Easy to understand.
C. Very important. D. Difficult to develop.
31. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A. The History of Carol Dweck’s Psychological Research
B. The Differences Between Growth Mindset and Fixed Mindset
C. How to Improve Students’ Academic Performance in Education
D. The Importance of Praise in Students’ Learning Process
【答案】28. B 29. C 30. A 31. B

The history of human communication is marked by revolutions: the invention of writing, the printing press, the telegraph, and the Internet. Each dramatically reshaped society. Now, on the horizon, is a technology promising another transformation: brain-to-computer interfaces (BCIs). BCIs aim to create a direct communication pathway between the brain and an external device.
In recent years, advancements in neural decoding algorithms (神经解码算法) and miniaturized sensors have accelerated BCI development. Early prototypes, once bulky and limited in function, now operate with greater precision — some even allowing users to control multiple devices at the same time via thought alone. This progress brings the technology closer to mainstream medical use, though accessibility remains a key barrier for many patients.
The most immediate and profound application of BCIs is in the medical field. For individuals paralyzed by spinal cord injuries or neurodegenerative diseases, BCIs can offer a new lease on life. By decoding neural signals, patients can control robotic limbs, operate wheelchairs, or type on a computer screen using only their thoughts. This technology has the potential to restore a degree of independence that was previously unimaginable.
Beyond restoring lost functions, BCIs are also being explored for “human enhancement”. Imagine downloading a new language directly into your brain, or enhancing your memory capacity. While this may sound like science fiction, companies are investing heavily in such research. However, this path is filled with ethical questions. Would such enhancements be available to all, or only to the wealthy? What does it mean for human identity if our cognitive abilities can be artificially increased?
Furthermore, the ability to read brain activity raises serious privacy concerns — the concept of “mental privacy.” Could governments or corporations one day access our thoughts? Robust ethical frameworks and regulations are urgently needed to guide the development of this powerful technology.
The BCI revolution is in its early stages, filled with both incredible potential and significant risks. Like any powerful tool, its impact will depend on how we choose to use it. The challenge lies in using its power for healing and human progress while guarding against misuse and ensuring that the technology serves humanity, and not the other way around.
32. What is the primary purpose of the passage?
A. To advertise the latest BCI products on the market.
B. To explain the technical details of how BCIs work.
C. To argue that BCIs are too dangerous to be developed further.
D. To discuss the potential benefits and ethical concerns of BCI technology.
33. How can BCIs primarily help paralyzed patients according to the text?
A. By curing their underlying diseases.
B. By allowing them to control devices with their thoughts.
C. By enhancing their natural cognitive abilities.
D. By connecting their brains directly to the Internet.
34. What is a major ethical concern associated with the “human enhancement” use of BCIs?
A. They might be too expensive for the average person to afford.
B. They could make learning new languages too easy.
C. They require complex surgical procedures.
D. They have no proven medical benefits.
35. What does the author emphasize as necessary for the future development of BCIs?
A. Immediate commercial application.
B. Slowing down the pace of research.
C. Strong ethical guidelines and regulations.
D. Leaving the development entirely to private companies.
【答案】32. D 33. B 34. A 35. C

How to Cultivate a Reading Habit in the Digital Age
In a world of endless notifications and short-form video content, developing a deep reading habit can feel like a challenge. However, the benefits of reading — improved focus, expanded knowledge, and reduced stress — are more valuable than ever. Here are some practical strategies to help you become a consistent reader.
Start Small and Set Realistic Goals. ____36____ Don’t commit to finishing “War and Peace” in a week. Instead, aim to read for just 15-20 minutes a day, or perhaps just one chapter. The key is consistency, not volume. The sense of accomplishment from meeting a small goal will motivate you to keep going.
Always Carry a Book (or an E-Reader). ____37____ Whether it’s during your commute, waiting in line, or during a lunch break, these pockets of time add up. Having a book readily available makes it easier to choose reading over scrolling through social media.
Create a Comfortable Reading Environment. Find a specific spot in your home that is comfortable and free from major distractions. ____38____ This conditions your brain to associate that space with reading and focus. Good lighting and a comfortable chair are essential.
____39____ Reading doesn’t have to be a solitary activity. Joining a book club or an online reading community can provide motivation, accountability, and a space to share insights. Knowing that you have a discussion coming up can be a powerful incentive to finish the book.
Diversify Your Reading. If you find yourself stuck in a reading slump, try a different genre. If you always read non-fiction, pick up a fast-paced thriller or a graphic novel. ____40____ The goal is to remember that reading is a form of enjoyment, not a chore.
A. Track your reading progress on social media.
B. Link Reading to a Social Activity.
C. Don’t set overly ambitious targets at the beginning.
D. Turn this into your dedicated reading corner.
E. Choose books that are relevant to your career.
F. This allows you to take advantage of “dead time” throughout the day.
G. Sometimes, a change is all you need to rekindle your interest.

67. 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 was a bitter cold winter afternoon. The sky was dull gray, and 10-year-old Lily walked home from school alone, her cheeks became red from the wind. The wind howled, cutting through her coat and making her teeth chatter (打颤). Snowflakes fell thicker by the minute, covering the road in a thin white blanket that crunched (发出压碎声) under her boots. Lily pulled her woolen coat tighter, put her chin into her scarf, and hurried — all she wanted was home: warm kitchen lights, her mom’s honeyed hot milk, and the fireplace.
Suddenly, a weak “meow” came from a nearby bush. Lily froze, held her breath, and listened. The sound came again, softer. Curious and worried, she walked over, brushed snow off the bush, and knelt to look. There, huddled in the corner, was a small black cat. Its fur was matted and wet, and it trembled violently — Lily could even see its ribs, like it hadn’t eaten in days. She reached out gently, and to her surprise, the cat leaned into her gloved palm, letting out a faint purr.
Lily couldn’t leave it — the wind was getting stronger and the cat might not survive the night. But her mom was badly allergic to cats; taking it home was impossible. She bit her lip, then remembered Mrs. Green, her elderly neighbor two blocks away. Mrs. Green loved animals, always keeping cat food on her porch and petting strays. Maybe she’d help.
Lily took off her grandma-knit red scarf, wrapped it around the cat, and picked it up, holding it close for warmth. Her boots slipped on the icy sidewalk as she hurried to Mrs. Green’s. When she reached the blue door, she knocked three times, hands shaky from cold and nerves. What if Mrs. Green wasn’t home? She pressed the cat tighter, whispering, “It’ll be okay.” She waited, listening for footsteps, hoping desperately Mrs. Green would answer.
注意:1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
The door opened slowly, and Mrs. Green appeared with a warm smile.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
That evening, Lily told her parents about the cat and Mrs. Green’s help.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Paragraph 1:
The door opened slowly, and Mrs. Green appeared with a warm smile. Her eyes softening when she spotted the scarf-wrapped cat in Lily’s arms, she stepped aside quickly. “Come in — it’s too cold outside!” she said, rubbing her hands to warm them. Lily explained about finding the shivering cat and her mom’s allergy. Mrs. Green nodded softly: “I’ll look after it.” She hurried to the kitchen and came back with a bowl of warm milk. When she set the bowl down, the cat crawled out of the scarf slowly and sucked the milk greedily. Lily watched, a big smile spreading across her face — she finally felt at ease.
Paragraph 2:
That evening, Lily told her parents about the cat and Mrs. Green’s help. Her mom listened carefully. “I’m so proud of you for helping that poor cat,” she said, “even though you knew I couldn’t have it at home.” Her dad nodded, adding, “Mrs. Green is such a kind lady — maybe we can bring her some cookies tomorrow to thank her.” Lily’s eyes lit up at the idea. The next day they visited Mrs. Green, and saw the cat, now much healthier. “We named her Ruby,” Lily said. Lily gave the cookies to Mrs Green, and Ruby rubbed her hand affectionately. Lily felt happy — she’d saved a life and shared kindness.

I was ten when I first met Mr. Schmidt. He was a towering, stern-looking man who had moved in next door. My friends and I were terrified of him, convinced he was the most bad-tempered person alive. We’d dare each other to ring his doorbell and run, but I never had the courage.
One Saturday, my soccer ball accidentally flew over his fence and into his prized rose garden. My heart sank. Getting it back meant facing him. I spent an hour gathering my nerve before walking to his front door, my knees shaking. I rang the bell, preparing to run.
The door creaked open. Mr. Schmidt looked down at me, frowning. “What?” he boomed. I stammered about my ball. He stared for what felt like an eternity, then said, “Well, come on, then. Don’t trample the roses.”
I followed him nervously through his perfect house to the backyard. And then I saw it located among the vibrant roses was the most beautiful, complicated model of a sailing ship I had ever seen. It was half-finished, sitting on a workbench. “The Cutty Sark,” he said, noticing my gaze. His voice was different — softer. “I build them.”
He picked up a tiny piece of wood and showed me how he carved it. I was fascinated. That afternoon, he didn’t just return my ball; he showed me his workshop, filled with models of historic ships. He spoke about each one with a passion that transformed him completely. The stern neighbor was gone, replaced by a gentle, patient artist.
I visited Mr. Schmidt every weekend after that. He taught me about woodworking, patience, and history. I learned that his sternness was just a shell, hiding a kind and lonely man who had lost his wife years ago. We became unlikely friends. He taught me that courage isn’t about not being afraid; it’s about facing your fear, and that sometimes, on the other side of that fear, you find something — or someone — truly wonderful.
24. Why were the children initially afraid of Mr. Schmidt?
A. He often punished children for entering without permission.
B. He had a fierce dog that barked at everyone.
C. His appearance and behavior seemed unfriendly.
D. He was known for yelling at children playing nearby.
25. What was the immediate cause for the narrator to finally approach Mr. Schmidt?
A. He was dared by his friends.
B. He needed to get his soccer ball back.
C. He was curious about the model ships.
D. His parents asked him to deliver something.
26. What key change did the narrator observe in Mr. Schmidt during their first real interaction?
A. Mr. Schmidt’s voice and attitude softened when talking about his models.
B. Mr. Schmidt apologized for being bad-tempered.
C. Mr. Schmidt immediately became very talkative and friendly.
D. Mr. Schmidt offered him a tour of the entire house.
27. What is the main message of the story?
A. Model ship building is a rewarding hobby.
B. Elderly people are often lonely and need company.
C. It is important to respect your neighbors’ property.
D. Appearances can be misleading, and courage can lead to unexpected friendships.
C
In the world of psychology, a fascinating concept known as the “growth mindset” has gained considerable attention, primarily through the work of psychologist Carol Dweck. It stands in contrast to a “fixed mindset.” Individuals with a fixed mindset believe that their basic qualities, like intelligence or talent, are simply fixed traits. They spend their time documenting their intelligence or talent instead of developing them. They also believe that talent alone creates success — without effort.
On the other hand, those with a growth mindset believe that their most basic abilities can be developed through dedication and hard work. This view creates a love of learning and a resilience that is essential for great accomplishment. Challenges are seen not as threats, but as opportunities to learn and grow. When faced with a setback, a person with a growth mindset is likely to analyze what went wrong and try a different approach.
The implications of these mindsets are profound, especially in education. Students with a growth mindset tend to achieve more than those with a fixed mindset because they worry less about looking smart and put more energy into learning. When teachers praise students for the process they engage in — their effort, strategies, focus, and perseverance — they foster a growth mindset. Conversely, praising only intelligence or talent can make students doubt themselves when they face difficulty, as they may attribute failure to a lack of innate ability.
In professional settings, the impact of these mindsets is equally striking. Employees with a growth mindset actively seek feedback, view colleagues’ successes as sources of inspiration rather than threats, and are more willing to take on challenging projects — even if they might initially struggle. This willingness to step outside comfort zones often leads to faster career growth and innovation for both individuals and teams. Leaders who cultivate a growth mindset within their organizations, by celebrating effort over just results and normalizing setbacks as part of the learning process, build more resilient and adaptive teams.
Fortunately, mindsets are not set in stone. People can learn to adopt more of a growth mindset by becoming aware of their own internal dialogue and changing how they respond to challenges. Embracing the phrase “not yet” can be powerful; receiving a low grade doesn’t mean “I failed,” but rather “I haven’t learned this yet.” Over time, this shift doesn’t just boost personal or professional performance; it shapes a mindset where continuous improvement becomes second nature, turning potential limitations into stepping stones for success.
28. According to the passage, what do people with a fixed mindset think about success?
A. Success comes from continuous learning and hard work.
B. Success depends on innate intelligence or talent alone.
C. Success is achieved by analyzing setbacks and trying new approaches.
D. Success relies on the support from teachers and family.
29. What can we infer from the passage about teachers’ praise?
A. Praising students’ intelligence will make them more confident in facing difficulties.
B. Teachers should avoid praising students’ effort to prevent them from being lazy.
C. Praising students’ learning process will help them develop a growth mindset.
D. Teachers’ praise has no impact on students’ mindset development.
30. Please guess the meaning of the underlined phrase “set in stone” in the sentence “Fortunately mindsets are not set in stone.”
A. Unchangeable. B. Easy to understand.
C. Very important. D. Difficult to develop.
31. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A. The History of Carol Dweck’s Psychological Research
B. The Differences Between Growth Mindset and Fixed Mindset
C. How to Improve Students’ Academic Performance in Education
D. The Importance of Praise in Students’ Learning Process
D
The history of human communication is marked by revolutions: the invention of writing, the printing press, the telegraph, and the Internet. Each dramatically reshaped society. Now, on the horizon, is a technology promising another transformation: brain-to-computer interfaces (BCIs). BCIs aim to create a direct communication pathway between the brain and an external device.
In recent years, advancements in neural decoding algorithms (神经解码算法) and miniaturized sensors have accelerated BCI development. Early prototypes, once bulky and limited in function, now operate with greater precision — some even allowing users to control multiple devices at the same time via thought alone. This progress brings the technology closer to mainstream medical use, though accessibility remains a key barrier for many patients.
The most immediate and profound application of BCIs is in the medical field. For individuals paralyzed by spinal cord injuries or neurodegenerative diseases, BCIs can offer a new lease on life. By decoding neural signals, patients can control robotic limbs, operate wheelchairs, or type on a computer screen using only their thoughts. This technology has the potential to restore a degree of independence that was previously unimaginable.
Beyond restoring lost functions, BCIs are also being explored for “human enhancement”. Imagine downloading a new language directly into your brain, or enhancing your memory capacity. While this may sound like science fiction, companies are investing heavily in such research. However, this path is filled with ethical questions. Would such enhancements be available to all, or only to the wealthy? What does it mean for human identity if our cognitive abilities can be artificially increased?
Furthermore, the ability to read brain activity raises serious privacy concerns — the concept of “mental privacy.” Could governments or corporations one day access our thoughts? Robust ethical frameworks and regulations are urgently needed to guide the development of this powerful technology.
The BCI revolution is in its early stages, filled with both incredible potential and significant risks. Like any powerful tool, its impact will depend on how we choose to use it. The challenge lies in using its power for healing and human progress while guarding against misuse and ensuring that the technology serves humanity, and not the other way around.
32. What is the primary purpose of the passage?
A To advertise the latest BCI products on the market.
B. To explain the technical details of how BCIs work.
C. To argue that BCIs are too dangerous to be developed further.
D. To discuss the potential benefits and ethical concerns of BCI technology.
33. How can BCIs primarily help paralyzed patients according to the text?
A. By curing their underlying diseases.
B. By allowing them to control devices with their thoughts.
C. By enhancing their natural cognitive abilities.
D. By connecting their brains directly to the Internet.
34. What is a major ethical concern associated with the “human enhancement” use of BCIs?
A. They might be too expensive for the average person to afford.
B. They could make learning new languages too easy.
C. They require complex surgical procedures.
D. They have no proven medical benefits.
35. What does the author emphasize as necessary for the future development of BCIs?
A. Immediate commercial application.
B. Slowing down the pace of research.
C. Strong ethical guidelines and regulations.
D. Leaving the development entirely to private companies.

How to Cultivate a Reading Habit in the Digital Age
In a world of endless notifications and short-form video content, developing a deep reading habit can feel like a challenge. However, the benefits of reading — improved focus, expanded knowledge, and reduced stress — are more valuable than ever. Here are some practical strategies to help you become a consistent reader.
Start Small and Set Realistic Goals. ____36____ Don’t commit to finishing “War and Peace” in a week. Instead, aim to read for just 15-20 minutes a day, or perhaps just one chapter. The key is consistency, not volume. The sense of accomplishment from meeting a small goal will motivate you to keep going.
Always Carry a Book (or an E-Reader). ____37____ Whether it’s during your commute, waiting in line, or during a lunch break, these pockets of time add up. Having a book readily available makes it easier to choose reading over scrolling through social media.
Create a Comfortable Reading Environment. Find a specific spot in your home that is comfortable and free from major distractions. ____38____ This conditions your brain to associate that space with reading and focus. Good lighting and a comfortable chair are essential.
____39____ Reading doesn’t have to be a solitary activity. Joining a book club or an online reading community can provide motivation, accountability, and a space to share insights. Knowing that you have a discussion coming up can be a powerful incentive to finish the book.
Diversify Your Reading. If you find yourself stuck in a reading slump, try a different genre. If you always read non-fiction, pick up a fast-paced thriller or a graphic novel. ____40____ The goal is to remember that reading is a form of enjoyment, not a chore.
A. Track your reading progress on social media.
B. Link Reading to a Social Activity.
C. Don’t set overly ambitious targets at the beginning.
D. Turn this into your dedicated reading corner.
E. Choose books that are relevant to your career.
F. This allows you to take advantage of “dead time” throughout the day.
G. Sometimes, a change is all you need to rekindle your interest.

It was a bitter cold winter afternoon. The sky was dull gray, and 10-year-old Lily walked home from school alone, her cheeks became red from the wind. The wind howled, cutting through her coat and making her teeth chatter (打颤). Snowflakes fell thicker by the minute, covering the road in a thin white blanket that crunched (发出压碎声) under her boots. Lily pulled her woolen coat tighter, put her chin into her scarf, and hurried — all she wanted was home: warm kitchen lights, her mom’s honeyed hot milk, and the fireplace.
Suddenly, a weak “meow” came from a nearby bush. Lily froze, held her breath, and listened. The sound came again, softer. Curious and worried, she walked over, brushed snow off the bush, and knelt to look. There, huddled in the corner, was a small black cat. Its fur was matted and wet, and it trembled violently — Lily could even see its ribs, like it hadn’t eaten in days. She reached out gently, and to her surprise, the cat leaned into her gloved palm, letting out a faint purr.
Lily couldn’t leave it — the wind was getting stronger, and the cat might not survive the night. But her mom was badly allergic to cats; taking it home was impossible. She bit her lip, then remembered Mrs. Green, her elderly neighbor two blocks away. Mrs. Green loved animals, always keeping cat food on her porch and petting strays. Maybe she’d help.
Lily took off her grandma-knit red scarf, wrapped it around the cat, and picked it up, holding it close for warmth. Her boots slipped on the icy sidewalk as she hurried to Mrs. Green’s. When she reached the blue door, she knocked three times, hands shaky from cold and nerves. What if Mrs. Green wasn’t home? She pressed the cat tighter, whispering, “It’ll be okay.” She waited, listening for footsteps, hoping desperately Mrs. Green would answer.
