This strong focus on history and politics can make the trip feel more like a dull school lesson than a fun vacation. The writer suggests going to some different spots to find new and surprising choices.

Guests get a spy name take short tests, and see cool things like James Bond’s famous car and smart spy tools. Museum of the Bible Though it talks about religion, it shows an interesting past of the book. Displays have parts of very old writings, an early King James Bible, and a small model of an old town. Rubell Museum The Rubell family started this place to bring new and modern art to the city. Its big collection has strange and fun modern works, like a very real-looking lady covered in plastic. Lincoln’s Cottage This quiet house was President Lincoln’s place for summer, where he did his most important thinking, and wrote a key paper about freedom. The area also has a large grave site for soldiers, showing the high cost of the war. 21. What is the author’s main advice for D.C. visitors? A. Opt for those interesting minor places. B. Only visit museums that focus on fun. C. Ask the locals for specific touring tips. D. Spend time studying history and politics. 22. Which museum would you like to visit if you are interested in history? A. Rubell Museum. B. International Spy Museum. C. Lincoln’s Cottage. D. Museum of the Bible. 23. Where is the text most probably taken from? A. A travel guide. B. A news report. C. A textbook. D. A research report. 【答案】21. A 22. D 23.

The following five places, which are less known but very interesting, offer a fresh experience.(作者建议去一些不同的地方寻找新的、令人惊喜的选择。以下五个鲜为人知但非常有趣的地方，提供了一种全新的体验)”可知，作者对华盛顿特区游客的主要建议是选择那些有趣的小众地方。故选A。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Museum of the Bible Though it talks about religion, it shows an interesting past of the book. Displays have parts of very old writings, an early King James Bible, and a small model of an old town.(圣经博物馆 尽管该馆涉及宗教主题，但它展现了这部典籍的有趣历史。展品包括古老文献的残片、早期的《钦定版圣经》以及一座古老城镇的微缩模型)”可知，圣经博物馆适合对历史感兴趣的游客。故选D。 【23题详解】 推理判断题。根据全文内容，作者介绍华盛顿特区的小众旅行景点，提供游览建议，符合旅行指南的文体特征。因此文本最可能来自一本旅行指南。故选A。 B Deep in New Jersey’s South Mountain Park, a magical world exists. Along a one-mile walking path, dozens of tiny fairy houses hide among trees and mossy areas. When storms damage these small houses, someone secretly fixes them. This secret builder is Therese Ojibway, a 60-year-old teacher from Millburn, New Jersey, who started this work five years ago. As a child in Michigan, Therese built fairy houses with her sisters. Her mother taught her to see magic in common things, which started her fairy path work. The fairy path truly began when Therese’s son Clinton was found to have autism (自闭症) at age two. Therese took Clinton on nature walks in the woods to help him. During these walks, Clinton noticed small natural details — a hollow log, a strange rock. These walks helped Therese remember her childhood imagination. “In the woods, I could follow his pace,” she explains. “We discovered magic together.” Years later, during difficult times, Therese began placing handmade fairy things along the path — small beds, swings, and ladders. As more houses appeared, the community joined in, leaving small gifts of nuts and seashells for the fairy neighbors. The work faced problems occasionally. Children broke one of Therese’s most difficult works — a two-story fairy house with a moss roof. However, Therese did not give up, just like she didn’t give up her son. Today, the fairy path remains special. “The joy is in making and sharing,” says Therese, whose patience was developed through raising an autistic child. Now Clinton is much better. The fairy path shows how creativity and patience can create something wonderful where broken things are mended and wonder never stops. 24. What made Therese seriously start the fairy path work in South Mountain Park? A. The community’s expectation of creating a magical path. B. Her mother’s teaching about finding magic in common things. C. The need to help her autistic son Clinton through nature walks. D. Her childhood experience of building fairy houses with sisters. 25. How did the community participate in the fairy path project? A. Organized group activities for children with special needs. B. Began to build more elaborate fairy houses along the path. C. Helped Therese maintain and repair the damaged fairy houses. D. Contributed by offering small presents for the fairy residents. 26. Where can we infer Therese’s patience mainly comes from? A. The support from the local community. B. Her childhood habit of exploring nature. C. Her long-term experience of raising Clinton. D. Repairing broken fairy houses again and again. 27. What is the main idea of the passage? A. An autistic boy’s recovery is related to nature walks. B. Therese’s childhood memory leads her to build fairy houses. C. A magical fairy path in New Jersey’s park attracts many visitors. D. Therese uses creativity and patience to create a special fairy path. 【答案】24. C 25. D 26. C 27. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了60岁教师特蕾莎·奥吉布韦因帮助自闭症儿子，在公园开辟仙女小径、制作仙女屋，社区参与其中，展现创造力与耐心的故事。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The fairy path truly began when Therese’s son Clinton was found to have autism (自闭症) at age two. Therese took Clinton on nature walks in the woods to help him.(当特蕾莎两岁的儿子克林顿被诊断出患有自闭症时，仙女小径才真正开始。特蕾莎带克林顿到树林里进行自然漫步，以帮助他。)”可知，特蕾莎真正开始仙女小径工作的核心原因是需要通过自然漫步帮助患有自闭症的儿子克林顿。故选C项。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“As more houses appeared, the community joined in, leaving small gifts of nuts and seashells for the fairy neighbors.(随着更多房子的出现，社区居民也参与进来，为仙女邻居们留下坚果和贝壳等小礼物。)”可知，社区通过为仙女“居民”提供小礼物的方式参与仙女小径项目。故选D项。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“The joy is in making and sharing,” says Therese, whose patience was developed through raising an autistic child.(“乐趣在于创造和分享，”特蕾莎说，她的耐心是通过抚养自闭症孩子培养出来的。)”可知，特蕾莎的耐心主要来源于长期抚养儿子克林顿的经历。故选C项。 【27题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是最后一段中的“The fairy path shows how creativity and patience can create something wonderful where broken things are mended and wonder never stops.(这条仙女小径展示了创造力和耐心如何创造出美好的事物，在这里，破碎的东西被修复，奇迹永不停止。)”可知，文章核心是特蕾莎凭借创造力和耐心，为帮助自闭症儿子开辟仙女小径，最终创造出特殊且充满意义的成果。故选D项。 C Does the popular activity benchmark (基准) of walking 10,000 steps a day feel too distant? New research finds you can gain health benefits just by moving a little more than usual. Aiming for 7,000 steps daily is a good goal when possible, said lead study author Dr. Melody Ding, public health professor at the University of Sydney. Compared with adults who took 2,000 steps (the minimal count), those with 7,000 steps had a 47% lower risk of all-cause death, 25% less risk of cardiovascular (心血管)disease and 38% less risk of mental illnesses. Many fitness tracker users see 10,000 steps as a daily activity standard, but this number lacks solid evidence, noted Dr. Sean Heffron from NYU, who was not involved in the research. A 2019 study found aiming for 10,000 steps likely originated from a Japanese pedometer marketing campaign by Yamasa Clock and Instrument Company, called “Manpo-kei” (“10,000 steps meter”). “More than 7,000 steps isn’t harmful and may even bring extra benefits, though.” Ding said, “Active people doing 10,000+ steps don’t need to cut back to 7,000!” Dr. Gulati from Cedars-Sinai Medical Center said step counts help estimate overall exercise levels. “The less you move, the fewer exerkines — special chemicals released during muscle contractions that not only benefit blood vessel health, but also improve insulin (胰岛素)sensitivity — and the higher your health risks,” he explained. 28. What can we learn from Dr. Melody Ding’s research? A. 10,000 steps a day is the best daily activity benchmark. B. 7,000 daily steps cuts all-cause death risk by 47% vs 2,000 steps. C. Moving less than 2,000 steps a day has no health risks at all. D. People with 10,000+ steps daily should cut back to 7,000 steps. 29. Why is the 10000-step standard questioned? A. It came from marketing with no solid supporting evidence. B. Most adults can hardly achieve the 10,000-step goal daily. C. It has been proved harmful to people’s cardiovascular health. D. It totally ignores the health benefits of fewer daily steps. 30. What is the function of exerkines according to Dr. Gulati? A. They help track daily step counts in an accurate way. B. They reduce people’s need for regular daily exercise. C. They benefit blood vessel health and insulin sensitivity. D. They raise mental illness risk when released by muscles. 31. What is the main idea of the passage? A. It talks about the history of the 10,000-step activity standard. B. Research shows 7,000 daily steps bring health benefits to people. C. It tells how to choose a suitable fitness tracker for step counting. D. It introduces doctors’ views on the harm of being physically inactive. 【答案】28. B 29. A 30. C 31. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍每天走7000步可带来健康益处，同时质疑了万步走标准，并解释了运动因子的作用。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Compared with adults who took 2,000 steps (the minimal count), those with 7,000 steps had a 47% lower risk of all-cause death, 25% less risk of cardiovascular disease and 38% less risk of mental illnesses.(与每天走2000 步（最低步数）的成年人相比，每天走7000步的人全因死亡风险降低47%，心血管疾病风险降低25%，精神疾病风险降低38%)”可知，丁博士的研究表明，相较于每天走2000步的人，每天走7000步能使全因死亡风险降低 47%。故选B项。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Many fitness tracker users see 10,000 steps as a daily activity standard, but this number lacks solid evidence, noted Dr. Sean Heffron from NYU, who was not involved in the research. A 2019 study found aiming for 10,000 steps likely originated from a Japanese pedometer marketing campaign by Yamasa Clock and Instrument Company, called “Manpo-kei” (“10,000 steps meter”).(纽约大学的肖恩・赫夫龙博士并未参与这项研究，他指出，许多健身追踪器用户将每日万步视为日常活动标准，但这一数字缺乏确凿的证据支撑。2019年的一项研究发现，每日万步的目标很可能源于日本山佐钟表仪器公司推出的一款计步器营销活动，该活动名为“万步计”)”可知，万步标准之所以受到质疑，是因为它源于一场营销活动，没有可靠的证据支撑。故选A项。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中的“The less you move, the fewer exerkines — special chemicals released during muscle contractions that not only benefit blood vessel health, but also improve insulin sensitivity — and the higher your health risks.(运动量越少，运动因子就越少 —— 运动因子是肌肉收缩时释放的特殊化学物质，不仅有益于血管健康，还能提高胰岛素敏感性 —— 健康风险也就越高)”可知，古拉蒂博士认为运动因子的作用是有益血管健康且能提高胰岛素敏感性。故选C项。 【31题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段中的“New research finds you can gain health benefits just by moving a little more than usual.(研究发现，只要比平时多动一点，就能获得健康益处)”以及第二段中的“Aiming for 7,000 steps daily is a good goal when possible, said lead study author Dr. Melody Ding, public health professor at the University of Sydney.(悉尼大学公共卫生教授、该研究的主要作者梅洛迪·丁博士说，尽可能每天走7000步是个不错的目标)”可知，文章核心是围绕每天走7000步能给人带来健康益处展开。故选B项。 D Learning a musical instrument is good for your hands, language skills, memory, and brain. Musicians often practice a lot, even when it causes them pain from repeated movements. Researchers wanted to know if this kind of training changes how musicians feel pain. Scientists know that pain makes us react quickly, like pulling your hand away from a hot stove. Short-term pain protects us. But long-term pain can cause problems. For example, if you don’t move an injured ankle for weeks, it makes the pain worse and affects the brain areas that handle pain. In the study, scientists gave musicians and non-musicians temporary hand pain. They applied a safe protein for this. They then measured brain activity to see how each person’s brain reacted to their hand before and after the pain. The results showed that musicians’ brains were different. Musicians felt less pain, and their brain’s “hand map” (how the brain understands the hand) did not shrink like non-musicians’ maps did. This study involved only 40 people, but it suggests that musical training helps musicians’ brains react to pain differently. While music cannot cure long-term pain, this training might help us understand how people deal with pain and develop new treatments. 32. What is the purpose of this article? A. To talk about the benefit of playing music. B. To explain why musicians are smarter than others. C. To introduce a new way to treat long-term pain. D. To show how music training changes pain feelings. 33. Why does the author mention an “injured ankle” in the second paragraph? A. To explain how short-term pain might be of good use. B. To describe an injury musicians often get in their lives. C. To show the bad effects of pain that lasts a long time. D. To prove that pain could help us make quicker reaction. 34. How did the scientists make people feel pain in the study? A By using a harmless protein. B. By shrinking their brain’s “hand map”. C. By measuring their brain activity. D. By causing them long-term hand pain. 35. What can we guess from this article? A. The study included many people. B. The pain used in the study lasted forever. C. Music training might help you deal with pain better. D. The more you play music, the more pain you will feel. 【答案】32. D 33. C 34. A 35. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍一项研究，探究乐器训练如何改变音乐家对疼痛的感知及相关发现。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Researchers wanted to know if this kind of training changes how musicians feel pain.(研究人员想知道这种训练是否会改变音乐家对疼痛的感受。)”及全文围绕该研究展开，介绍研究过程、结果和意义可知，文章的核心目的是展示音乐训练如何改变人们对疼痛的感受。故选D项。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“But long-term pain can cause problems. For example, if you don’t move an injured ankle for weeks, it makes the pain worse and affects the brain areas that handle pain.(但长期疼痛会引发问题。例如，如果你数周不活动受伤的脚踝，会让疼痛加剧，并影响大脑处理疼痛的区域。)”可知，作者提及“受伤的脚踝”是为了举例说明长期疼痛带来的不良影响。故选C项。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“In the study, scientists gave musicians and non-musicians temporary hand pain. They applied a safe protein for this.(在研究中，科学家给音乐家和非音乐家施加了暂时性的手部疼痛。他们使用了一种安全的蛋白质来实现这一点。)”可知，科学家通过使用无害的蛋白质让受试者感到疼痛。故选A项。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“ While music cannot cure long-term pain, this training might help us understand how people deal with pain and develop new treatments.(尽管音乐无法治愈长期疼痛，但这种训练或许能帮助我们理解人类应对疼痛的机制，并为研发新的治疗方法提供思路)”可推测，音乐训练可能帮助人们更好地应对疼痛。故选C项。 第二节：（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读短文内容从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。每小题只有一个最佳选项, 选项中有两项是多余选项。并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 Everyone has times when they feel down.

I always sat in the front seat and kept my notebook neat and tidy. I was used to the old Chinese way of learning: listening quietly, writing notes carefully, and never talking when the teacher was speaking. I thought the quietest student showed the most respect. But in my first class, I soon found things were different. My teacher, Professor Miller, asked us to question every idea and speak up often. "Your thoughts are as important as the old books," she said. Students talked fast and often interrupted each other. The teacher seemed happy with this. When she asked me a question, I just froze. I had spent the whole time getting a perfect answer ready in my mind, but when I raised my hand, the talk had gone to a totally new thing. After class, I asked my American classmate, David, for advice. He just laughed, “You look like you are waiting for a ticket to talk, Li. Just jump in!” The next week, I tried to be stronger. I got even more ready for the class. But every time I stopped for a second to breathe, another person quickly started talking. The class talk felt less like a serious discussion and more like a fast game. I felt very sad, but I knew my quiet way was not wrong. I thought there must be a way to share my ideas that used my Chinese learning style but still met the class rules. 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。 Instead of trying to talk as fast as others, I chose to use my own way to help the class. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ To my surprise, my method worked very well and added something new to our discussions. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Instead of trying to talk as fast as others, I chose to use my own way to help the class. I decided to listen carefully to everyone’s opinions and take detailed notes. When someone made an interesting point, I would write it down and think about it deeply. During the discussion, I waited for the right moment to share my thoughts. Instead of interrupting, I would raise my hand politely and wait to be called on. I found that by observing first, I could often add something meaningful that connected different ideas or asked thoughtful questions that helped the group think deeper. To my surprise, my method worked very well and added something new to our discussions. Professor Miller noticed my approach and praised me for being a “thoughtful contributor.” She said my questions helped the class explore ideas more thoroughly. Other students started asking me for my notes and listening carefully when I spoke. David admitted that my way of thinking was different and valuable. I realized that being quiet and thoughtful didn’t mean being passive. My Chinese learning style of careful listening and deep thinking actually made me a better participant in American classroom discussions. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开。作者初到国外上大学，秉持中国式安静学习方式，在课上准备完美答案却难有机会发言。后尝试融入课堂，仍觉困难，但坚信安静方式没错，想找到融合中西学习风格的方法。 【详解】1.段落续写 ①由第一段句首内容“我没有试图像其他人那样说得飞快，而是选择用自己的方式为班级出份力。”可知，第一段可以描写作者在美式课堂讨论中，不盲目模仿他人快速发言的方式，选择倾听、记笔记、深入思考的具体做法，以及在合适时机礼貌分享观点的行为。 ②由第二段句首内容“令我惊讶的是，我的方法效果很好，为我们的讨论增添了新意。”可知，第二段可以描写作者的方法取得的良好效果，包括教授的表扬、同学的认可与求助，以及作者从中领悟到“安静深思并非被动，中式学习风格助力课堂参与”的感悟。 2.续写线索：课堂中选择独特参与方式 —— 具体践行倾听、记笔记、深思的做法 —— 适时礼貌分享有价值观点 —— 方法获得良好效果 —— 得到教授表扬与同学认可 —— 领悟中式学习风格的优势与自我价值 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①决定：decide/determine ②仔细倾听：listen carefully/listen attentively ③做详细笔记：take detailed notes/make thorough notes 情绪类 ①称赞：praise/compliment ②深思熟虑的：thoughtful/reflective 【点睛】【高分句型1】When someone made an interesting point, I would write it down and think about it deeply.

This strong focus on history and politics can make the trip feel more like a dull school lesson than a fun vacation. The writer suggests going to some different spots to find new and surprising choices. The following five places, which are less known but very interesting, offer a fresh experience: International Spy Museum Want to check your secret skills? Guests get a spy name, take short tests, and see cool things like James Bond’s famous car and smart spy tools. Museum of the Bible Though it talks about religion, it shows an interesting past of the book. Displays have parts of very old writings, an early King James Bible, and a small model of an old town. Rubell Museum The Rubell family started this place to bring new and modern art to the city. Its big collection has strange and fun modern works, like a very real-looking lady covered in plastic. Lincoln’s Cottage This quiet house was President Lincoln’s place for summer, where he did his most important thinking, and wrote a key paper about freedom. The area also has a large grave site for soldiers, showing the high cost of the war. 21. What is the author’s main advice for D.C. visitors? A. Opt for those interesting minor places. B. Only visit museums that focus on fun. C. Ask the locals for specific touring tips. D. Spend time studying history and politics. 22. Which museum would you like to visit if you are interested in history? A. Rubell Museum. B. International Spy Museum. C. Lincoln’s Cottage. D. Museum of the Bible. 23. Where is the text most probably taken from? A. A travel guide. B. A news report. C. A textbook. D. A research report. B Deep in New Jersey’s South Mountain Park, a magical world exists. Along a one-mile walking path, dozens of tiny fairy houses hide among trees and mossy areas. When storms damage these small houses, someone secretly fixes them. This secret builder is Therese Ojibway, a 60-year-old teacher from Millburn, New Jersey, who started this work five years ago. As a child in Michigan, Therese built fairy houses with her sisters. Her mother taught her to see magic in common things, which started her fairy path work. The fairy path truly began when Therese’s son Clinton was found to have autism (自闭症) at age two. Therese took Clinton on nature walks in the woods to help him. During these walks, Clinton noticed small natural details — a hollow log, a strange rock. These walks helped Therese remember her childhood imagination. “In the woods, I could follow his pace,” she explains. “We discovered magic together.” Years later, during difficult times, Therese began placing handmade fairy things along the path — small beds, swings, and ladders. As more houses appeared, the community joined in, leaving small gifts of nuts and seashells for the fairy neighbors. The work faced problems occasionally. Children broke one of Therese’s most difficult works — a two-story fairy house with a moss roof. However, Therese did not give up, just like she didn’t give up her son. Today, the fairy path remains special. “The joy is in making and sharing,” says Therese, whose patience was developed through raising an autistic child. Now Clinton is much better. The fairy path shows how creativity and patience can create something wonderful where broken things are mended and wonder never stops. 24. What made Therese seriously start the fairy path work in South Mountain Park? A. The community’s expectation of creating a magical path. B. Her mother’s teaching about finding magic in common things. C. The need to help her autistic son Clinton through nature walks. D. Her childhood experience of building fairy houses with sisters. 25. How did the community participate in the fairy path project? A. Organized group activities for children with special needs. B. Began to build more elaborate fairy houses along the path. C. Helped Therese maintain and repair the damaged fairy houses. D. Contributed by offering small presents for the fairy residents. 26. Where can we infer Therese’s patience mainly comes from? A. The support from the local community. B. Her childhood habit of exploring nature. C. Her long-term experience of raising Clinton. D. Repairing broken fairy houses again and again. 27. What is the main idea of the passage? A. An autistic boy’s recovery is related to nature walks. B. Therese’s childhood memory leads her to build fairy houses. C. A magical fairy path in New Jersey’s park attracts many visitors. D. Therese uses creativity and patience to create a special fairy path. C Does the popular activity benchmark (基准) of walking 10,000 steps a day feel too distant? New research finds you can gain health benefits just by moving a little more than usual. Aiming for 7,000 steps daily is a good goal when possible, said lead study author Dr. Melody Ding, public health professor at the University of Sydney. Compared with adults who took 2,000 steps (the minimal count), those with 7,000 steps had a 47% lower risk of all-cause death, 25% less risk of cardiovascular (心血管)disease and 38% less risk of mental illnesses. Many fitness tracker users see 10,000 steps as a daily activity standard, but this number lacks solid evidence, noted Dr. Sean Heffron from NYU, who was not involved in the research. A 2019 study found aiming for 10,000 steps likely originated from a Japanese pedometer marketing campaign by Yamasa Clock and Instrument Company, called “Manpo-kei” (“10,000 steps meter”). “More than 7,000 steps isn’t harmful and may even bring extra benefits, though.” Ding said, “Active people doing 10,000+ steps don’t need to cut back to 7,000!” Dr. Gulati from Cedars-Sinai Medical Center said step counts help estimate overall exercise levels. “The less you move, the fewer exerkines — special chemicals released during muscle contractions that not only benefit blood vessel health, but also improve insulin (胰岛素)sensitivity — and the higher your health risks,” he explained. 28. What can we learn from Dr. Melody Ding’s research? A. 10,000 steps a day is the best daily activity benchmark. B. 7,000 daily steps cuts all-cause death risk by 47% vs 2,000 steps. C. Moving less than 2,000 steps a day has no health risks at all. D. People with 10,000+ steps daily should cut back to 7,000 steps. 29. Why is the 10,000-step standard questioned? A. It came from marketing with no solid supporting evidence. B. Most adults can hardly achieve the 10,000-step goal daily. C. It has been proved harmful to people’s cardiovascular health. D. It totally ignores the health benefits of fewer daily steps. 30. What is the function of exerkines according to Dr. Gulati? A. They help track daily step counts in an accurate way. B. They reduce people’s need for regular daily exercise. C. They benefit blood vessel health and insulin sensitivity. D. They raise mental illness risk when released by muscles. 31. What is the main idea of the passage? A. It talks about the history of the 10,000-step activity standard. B. Research shows 7,000 daily steps bring health benefits to people. C. It tells how to choose a suitable fitness tracker for step counting. D. It introduces doctors’ views on the harm of being physically inactive. D Learning a musical instrument is good for your hands, language skills, memory, and brain. Musicians often practice a lot, even when it causes them pain from repeated movements. Researchers wanted to know if this kind of training changes how musicians feel pain. Scientists know that pain makes us react quickly, like pulling your hand away from a hot stove. Short-term pain protects us. But long-term pain can cause problems. For example, if you don’t move an injured ankle for weeks, it makes the pain worse and affects the brain areas that handle pain. In the study, scientists gave musicians and non-musicians temporary hand pain. They applied a safe protein for this. They then measured brain activity to see how each person’s brain reacted to their hand before and after the pain. The results showed that musicians’ brains were different. Musicians felt less pain, and their brain’s “hand map” (how the brain understands the hand) did not shrink like non-musicians’ maps did. This study involved only 40 people, but it suggests that musical training helps musicians’ brains react to pain differently. While music cannot cure long-term pain, this training might help us understand how people deal with pain and develop new treatments. 32. What is the purpose of this article? A. To talk about the benefit of playing music. B. To explain why musicians are smarter than others. C. To introduce a new way to treat long-term pain. D. To show how music training changes pain feelings. 33. Why does the author mention an “injured ankle” in the second paragraph? A. To explain how short-term pain might be of good use. B. To describe an injury musicians often get in their lives. C. To show the bad effects of pain that lasts a long time. D. To prove that pain could help us make quicker reaction. 34. How did the scientists make people feel pain in the study? A. By using a harmless protein. B. By shrinking their brain’s “hand map”. C. By measuring their brain activity. D. By causing them long-term hand pain. 35. What can we guess from this article? A. The study included many people. B. The pain used in the study lasted forever. C. Music training might help you deal with pain better. D. The more you play music, the more pain you will feel. 第二节：（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读短文内容从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。每小题只有一个最佳选项, 选项中有两项是多余选项。并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 Everyone has times when they feel down.

I always sat in the front seat and kept my notebook neat and tidy. I was used to the old Chinese way of learning: listening quietly, writing notes carefully, and never talking when the teacher was speaking. I thought the quietest student showed the most respect. But in my first class, I soon found things were different. My teacher, Professor Miller, asked us to question every idea and speak up often. "Your thoughts are as important as the old books," she said. Students talked fast and often interrupted each other. The teacher seemed happy with this. When she asked me a question, I just froze. I had spent the whole time getting a perfect answer ready in my mind, but when I raised my hand, the talk had gone to a totally new thing. After class, I asked my American classmate, David, for advice. He just laughed, “You look like you are waiting for a ticket to talk, Li. Just jump in!” The next week, I tried to be stronger. I got even more ready for the class. But every time I stopped for a second to breathe, another person quickly started talking. The class talk felt less like a serious discussion and more like a fast game. I felt very sad, but I knew my quiet way was not wrong. I thought there must be a way to share my ideas that used my Chinese learning style but still met the class rules. 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。 Instead of trying to talk as fast as others, I chose to use my own way to help the class. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ To my surprise, my method worked very well and added something new to our discussions. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
