We will compare some of the top online advertising platforms and help you determine which one is right for you. Google Ads: The Powerhouse of Online Advertising When it comes to online advertising, Google Ads is undoubtedly the most powerful and widely used platform with its mighty targeting options. Businesses can target specific keywords, demographics (人口统计), locations, and even custom audiences based on their website visitors or customer lists. This level of precision ensures precise ads reaching. Facebook Ads: Targeting Your Audience with Accuracy Facebook Ads offers businesses various ad formats such as image ads, video ads, audio-visual ads, and more to engage with their target audience effectively. One significant advantage Facebook Ads have over other platforms is its advanced targeting abilities. With Facebook’s large user data, businesses can target their ads based on demographics, interests, behaviors, and even life events. This level of accuracy allows you to tailor your ads to specific audience divisions and increase the chances of transformation. LinkedIn Ads: Connecting with Professionals If your business operates in the B2B space or targets professionals and decision-makers, LinkedIn Ads is an excellent platform to consider. One of the key advantages of using LinkedIn Ads is its professional targeting options, including job titles, industries, company size, and even specific companies. This high level of precision ensures that your ads are viewed by related professionals who are more likely to be interested in your products or services. YouTube Ads: Engaging Your Audience through Video Video advertising has gained significant popularity in recent years due to its ability to draw users’ attention effectively. One major advantage of YouTube Ads is its widespread reach.

(与其他平台相比，Facebook广告的一个显著优势是其先进的定位能力。)”可知，Facebook 广告一个显著特点是其先进的定位能力。故选B项。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。由LinkedIn Ads: Connecting with Professionals中“One of the key advantages of using LinkedIn Ads is its professional targeting options, including job titles, industries, company size, and even specific companies. This high level of precision ensures that your ads are viewed by related professionals who are more likely to be interested in your products or services.(使用领英广告的主要优势之一是其专业的定位选项，包括职位、行业、公司规模，甚至特定公司。这种高精度确保了您的广告被更有可能对您的产品或服务感兴趣的相关专业人士观看。)”可知，LinkedIn广告以专业人士为目标。故选A项。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。由文章第一段“We will compare some of the top online advertising platforms and help you determine which one is right for you.(我们将比较一些顶级的在线广告平台，并帮助您确定哪一个适合您。)”以及下文可知，文章主要介绍一些广告平台来帮助企业选择。故选C项。 B In the middle of San Francisco’s Golden Gate Park, Amanda Barrows carefully placed a wooden nightstand (床头柜) on the ground. She attached a sign reading, “Take a poem, leave a poem.” So far, more than 100 poems have come in. “It’s completely unexpected,” said Barrows. “I’m really impressed by the outpouring of support.” A park ranger (护林人) by day and a poet by night, Barrows joined a Poetry for the People class at City College of San Francisco (CCSF). Students were asked to find a way to “bring poetry into the community” as their final project. In the beginning, Barrows struggled to land on an idea. Eventually, though, it dawned on her that she could perhaps combine together her two worlds — parks and poetry. A colleague offered up a weathered nightstand, which Barrows thought would be the perfect tool for her project, as she could fill the drawer at the top with fresh paper and pens and add a box at the bottom for poems. The concept reminded her of Little Free Libraries, which featured bookstands stationed across the city. “I was inspired by the little free libraries you see in San Francisco (SF), where you ‘take a book, leave a book’, and thought, ‘Maybe I could do this with poetry.’” said Barrows. Since she only had a single nightstand to work with, Barrows decided that she would leave it in a park for four days before moving it to a new location. San Francisco’s Recreation and Park Department manages about 220 parks, and Barrows’s goal is to bring the poetry nightstand to all of them. Since the Poetry Nightstand project started, people have donated a wide range of writing. Barrows has shared most of the submissions on social media. “It really is a community project,” Barrows said. “It belongs to all of us.” One of the teachers at the CCSF poetry course, Lauren Muller, told The Washington Post that “people need poetry now”, which she suggested as the reason for the success of Barrows’s project. 4. Why did Barrows start the Poetry Nightstand project? A. To share her own poems. B. To advertise a poetry class. C. To encourage young poets. D. To complete a required task. 5. How did Barrows’s project differ from Little Free Libraries? A. It wasn’t well-received by the public. B. It wasn’t fixed on a specific site. C. It covered a larger area in the city. D. It was only open to citizens of SF. 6. What did Muller think contributed to the success of Barrows’s project? A. The benefits of writing poetry. B. The public demand for poetry. C. The help from her neighbors. D. The large number of parks in SF. 7. Which of the following words best describe Barrows? A. Courageous and calm. B. Enthusiastic and kind. C. Creative and ambitious. D. Cooperative and generous. 【答案】4. D 5. B 6. B 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文为记叙文，主要介绍了旧金山公园管理员巴罗斯为完成诗歌课程的结课作业而发起了一个诗歌项目。她在公园里放置了一个床头框，写着“取一首诗，留一首诗”，结果引起了很大反响，许多人参与到了这个项目中来。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“A park ranger (护林人) by day and a poet by night, Barrows joined a Poetry for the People class at City College of San Francisco (CCSF). Students were asked to find a way to “bring poetry into the community” as their final project.( 巴罗斯白天是公园管理员，晚上是诗人，他参加了旧金山城市学院的“为人民写诗”课程。学生们被要求找到一种“将诗歌带入社区”的方法作为他们的期末项目)”可知，巴罗斯开始Poetry Nightstand项目是为了完成诗歌课程布置的任务。故选D。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段中的“The concept reminded her of Little Free Libraries, which featured bookstands stationed across the city.( 这个概念让她想起了小型免费图书馆，它的特色是遍布全城的书柜)”可知，Little Free Libraries遍布全城。再根据该段中的“Since she only had a single nightstand to work with, Barrows decided that she would leave it in a park for four days before moving it to a new location. San Francisco’s Recreation and Park Department manages about 220 parks, and Barrows’s goal is to bring the poetry nightstand to all of them.( 由于她只有一个床头柜，巴罗斯决定把它放在公园里四天，然后把它搬到一个新的地方。旧金山的娱乐和公园部门管理着大约220个公园，巴罗斯的目标是把诗歌床头柜带到所有的公园)”可知，巴罗斯只有一个床头柜可以使用，她先把它在一个公园里放四天，然后再搬到其他新的地方，她的目标是将这个床头柜带到所有公园，因此她的项目是流动的，而非固定在某个特定地点。故选B。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“One of the teachers at the CCSF poetry course, Lauren Muller, told The Washington Post that“people need poetry now”, which she suggested as the reason for the success of Barrows’s project.( CCSF诗歌课程的一位老师劳伦·穆勒告诉《华盛顿邮报》，“人们现在需要诗歌”，她认为这是巴罗斯项目成功的原因)”可知，穆勒认为巴罗斯的项目成功的原因是“人们现在需要诗歌”。故选B。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。结合全文，尤其是第四段中的“Eventually, though, it dawned on her that she could perhaps combine together her two worlds— parks and poetry.( 然而，她终于意识到，她也许可以把她的两个世界——公园和诗歌——结合在一起)”可知，巴罗斯推出诗歌床头柜这一项目，既完成了诗歌课程的结课作业，又结合了自己的工作和对诗歌的兴趣，因此是非常有创意的。再由第五段最后一句话“San Francisco’s Recreation and Park Department manages about 220 parks, and Barrows’s goal is to bring the poetry nightstand to all of them.( 旧金山的娱乐和公园部门管理着大约220个公园，巴罗斯的目标是把诗歌床头柜带到所有的公园)”可知，巴罗斯希望将这一项目带到所有公园，因此她也是非常有目标、有雄心的。故选C。 C Imagine that you are in a crowded place. You do not notice, but someone is watching you and learns your iPhone password (密码). Then, they steal your phone. Suddenly, your photos, documents, financial information, and the rest of your digital life have been taken from you. Apple, the iPhone maker, recently released an update to its iOS operating system. It has a new feature called Stolen Device Protection (SDP). The feature makes it a lot harder for phone thieves to open the device and access important functions and settings. Apple says the feature adds extra security for users. It addresses a drawback that thieves have used to lock device owners out of their Apple accounts, delete their photos and other files from their iCloud, and take money from their bank accounts. SDP keeps track of a user’s “familiar locations”, such as their home or workplace. It also reduces the importance of passwords. Instead, it favors “biometric” (生物识别的) features such as faces or fingerprints, which are a lot harder to copy. If a thief tries to erase or reset an iPhone, the device will require a Face ID or Touch ID scan to confirm that the person is the rightful owner. The new feature does not let someone use the password or any other backup method. Another part of the new feature is designed to slow down thieves trying to change security settings. For example, if someone tries to sign out of an Apple ID account, change the password or reset the phone in an unfamiliar location, they will have to authenticate (证实) by using Face ID or Touch ID, wait an hour, and then do a second facial or fingerprint scan. Changing an Apple ID password, updating Apple ID security settings, adding or removing Face or Touch ID, and turning off the Find My device feature or Stolen Device Protection also will lead to this feature. 8. What is the function of paragraph 1? A. To remind readers to be cautious. B. To explain how password theft directly causes device loss. C. To set a phone-stealing scene. D. To introduce the following text. 9. What is special about SDP? A. It secures Apple accounts with remote locking. B. It prevents thieves from accessing bank accounts. C. It stops iCloud files from being deleted. D. It makes thieves not easy to enter the phone. 10. What does SDP require for resetting a stolen iPhone? A. An Apple ID account. B. Identity confirmation. C. Previous passwords. D. A new security setting. 11. What does the passage mainly talk about? A. Usage of biometric features. B. Apple’s iOS operating system. C. iPhone’s anti-theft measure. D. Apple ID security settings. 【答案】8. D 9. D 10. B 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了苹果公司发布的一项名为失窃设备保护（SDP）的新功能，帮助保障设备在被盗后的信息安全。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Imagine that you are in a crowded place. You do not notice, but someone is watching you and learns your iPhone password (密码). Then, they steal your phone. Suddenly, your photos, documents, financial information, and the rest of your digital life have been taken from you.(想象一下，你在一个拥挤的地方。你没有注意到，但有人正在监视你并了解你的iPhone密码。然后，他们偷走了你的手机。突然间，你的照片、文件、财务信息和其他数字生活都被夺走了。)”和第二段“Apple, the iPhone maker, recently released an update to its iOS operating system. It has a new feature called Stolen Device Protection (SDP). The feature makes it a lot harder for phone thieves to open the device and access important functions and settings.(iPhone制造商苹果最近发布了其iOS操作系统的更新。它有一个名为失窃设备保护（SDP）的新功能。该功能使手机窃贼更难打开设备并访问重要功能和设置。)”可知，第一段假设了一个iPhone手机密码被盗导致个人信息被泄露的情景，接着第二段iPhone的“失窃设备保护”功能，由此可推测第一段的作用是为了介绍接下来的内容。故选D。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“It has a new feature called Stolen Device Protection (SDP). The feature makes it a lot harder for phone thieves to open the device and access important functions and settings.(它有一个名为失窃设备保护（SDP）的新功能。该功能使手机窃贼更难打开设备并访问重要功能和设置。)”可知，SDP可以让手机不容易被窃贼打开。故选D。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中的“If a thief tries to erase or reset an iPhone, the device will require a Face ID or Touch ID scan to confirm that the person is the rightful owner.(如果小偷试图删除或重置iPhone，该设备将需要面部识别或触摸识别扫描，以确认该人是合法的所有者。)”可知，如果想重置iPhone，需要身份确认，故选B。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据全文内容，尤其是第二段“Apple, the iPhone maker, recently released an update to its iOS operating system. It has a new feature called Stolen Device Protection (SDP). The feature makes it a lot harder for phone thieves to open the device and access important functions and settings.(iPhone制造商苹果最近发布了其iOS操作系统的更新。它有一个名为失窃设备保护（SDP）的新功能。该功能使手机窃贼更难打开设备并访问重要功能和设置。)”可知，本文主要介绍了iPhone的“失窃设备保护”功能，即防盗措施。故选C。 D Jason, a straight-A student from the University of Pennsylvania, uses the term “pseudo-working” to describe how many of us study. The pseudo-worker looks and feels like someone who is working hard — he or she spends a long time in the library and is not afraid to push on late into the night — but, because of a lack of focus and concentration, he or she doesn’t actually accomplish much. This phenomenon can be seen in most colleges. For example, at Dartmouth there was a section of the main library that was open twenty-four hours a day and the students I used to see in there late at night crowded in groups, drinking coffee, were definitely pseudo-working. By placing themselves in distracting environments and insisting on working long hours, these students are damaging their brain’s ability to think clearly and efficiently to accomplish the task at hand. In the end they get half the results with twice the effort. The bigger problem here is that most students don’t even realize that they’re pseudo-working. To them pseudo-working is work — it’s how they’ve always done it, and it’s how all of their friends do it. It never crosses their mind that there might be a better way. Straight-A students, on the other hand, know all about pseudo-working. They fear it, and for good reason it not only wastes time, but it’s also mentally tiring. In fact, the most important skill in becoming a better student is the ability to get work done quickly and with a minimum of wasted effort. Some cognitive science research concludes that about 50 minutes is the optimal learning period to maximize the material learned per time unit. So how can students manage to study efficiently? One key factor is in the following simple formula: work accomplished = time spent×intensity of focus. Pseudo-working features a very low intensity of focus. Therefore, to accomplish something by pseudo-working, you need to spend a lot of time. The straight-A student maximizes of focus in order to minimize time. 12. Which of the following phenomenon is an example of pseudo-working? A. Mike is sitting in the study room in preparation for a final exam quietly. B. Jack spends a long time in the library on his essay while listening to music. C. Tom is busy taking notes while attending a lecture. D. Alice and Sara are sitting on the sofa reading their favorite books. 13. What can be inferred from paragraph 3 and 4? A. Straight-A students believe some tasks are worth twice the effort. B. Students will get good grades once they realize that pseudo-working is ineffective. C. Negative effects of pseudo-working are not fully realized by many students. D. Too much thinking may weaken the brain’s ability of the students. 14. What does the underlined word “optimal” mean in paragraph 5? A. Least. B. Effective. C. Fast. D. Best. 15. Why does the author mention the formula in the text? A. To emphasize the importance of concentration. B. To explain the reason for spending much time. C. To show the benefit of working hard. D. To prove the necessity of accomplishing work. 【答案】12. B 13. C 14. D 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了校园中存在的“伪学习”现象，并提出了高效学习的方法。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“The pseudo-worker looks and feels like someone who is working hard — he or she spends a long time in the library and is not afraid to push on late into the night — but, because of a lack of focus and concentration, he or she doesn’t actually accomplish much.(伪学习者看起来和感觉上都像是在努力学习的人——他或她在图书馆花很长时间，不怕熬夜到很晚——但由于缺乏专注和集中，他或她实际上并没有完成多少事情。)”可知，伪学习的特点是花费大量时间但注意力不集中，收效甚微，所以杰克在图书馆花很长时间边听音乐边写论文，符合这一特征。故选B。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“By placing themselves in distracting environments and insisting on working long hours, these students are damaging their brain’s ability to think clearly and efficiently to accomplish the task at hand.(这些学生把自己置于令人分心的环境中，坚持长时间学习，这损害了大脑清晰高效地思考以完成手头任务的能力。)”和第四段中的“The bigger problem here is that most students don’t even realize that they’re pseudo-working.(这里更大的问题是，大多数学生甚至没有意识到自己在伪学习。)”可知，伪学习会损害大脑的思考能力，具有负面影响，但大多数学生并未完全意识到自己在伪学习，由此可推测，许多学生并没有意识到伪学习的负面影响。故选C。 【14题详解】 词句猜测题。根据画线词前的“about 50 minutes”和其后的“to maximize the material learned per time unit(以达到在每个时间单位内获取最多知识量的目的)”可知，画线词前后分别提到50分钟和最大限度地提高每单位时间学习的材料量，由此可推测，画线句句意为：一些认知科学的研究得出结论：大约 50 分钟是能够使每次学习所获取知识量达到最大值的最佳学习时间段。50分钟是把学习效率最大化的最佳时间，optimal意为“最佳的”，与best意思一致。故选D。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“One key factor is in the following simple formula: work accomplished = time spent×intensity of focus. Pseudo-working features a very low intensity of focus. Therefore, to accomplish something by pseudo-working, you need to spend a lot of time. The straight-A student maximizes of focus in order to minimize time.(一个关键因素体现在以下简单的公式中：完成的工作量=花费的时间×专注强度。伪学习的特点是专注强度很低。因此，通过伪学习来完成某件事，你需要花费大量时间。另一方面，优等生会最大限度地提高专注强度，以最小化时间。)”可知，作者在这个公式中提到了时间和专注强度，并指出二者之间的关系，伪学习由于专注强度低，所以花费时间多，而优等生提高专注强度来降低花费时间，由此可推测，作者提到这个公式是为了强调专注的重要性。故选A。 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) Lightning (闪电) is a beautiful and inspiring phenomenon, but it can be deadly. Over the past 30 years, lightning has killed an average of 67 people per year in the United States alone. ____16____ . Follow these steps to safety the next time there’s fire in the sky.

F 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一些方法以帮助我们避免被闪电袭击。 【16题详解】 根据空前内容“Lightning (闪电) is a beautiful and inspiring phenomenon, but it can be deadly. Over the past 30 years, lightning has killed an average of 67 people per year in the United States alone.(闪电是一种美丽而鼓舞人心的现象，但它可能是致命的。在过去的30年里，仅在美国，每年平均有67人死于闪电)”可知，闪电非常危险。选项G“Fortunately, most lightning-related deaths are preventable(幸运的是，大多数与雷击有关的死亡是可以预防的)”承上启下，自然引出下文“Follow these steps to safety the next time there’s fire in the sky.(下次有闪电的时候，按照这些步骤去保证安全)”。故选G。 【17题详解】 根据上文内容“If you find yourself caught in a lightning storm, never stand under a tree, and avoid being close to power lines as they’re both excellent conductors (导体) of electricity and could potentially cause death, if not serious injury. (如果你发现自己置于雷雨中，千万不要站在树下，避免靠近电线，因为它们都是优秀的导电体，如果不是严重伤害，也有可能导致死亡)”可知，在雷雨天，我们要避免靠近电线，远离树木。选项E“Find shelter near or under a stony shelter(在石头掩蔽处附近或下面寻找掩蔽处)”是上文内容的自然延续，指出在雷雨天，我们不能站在树下，要避免靠近电线，同时寻找适当的掩蔽处。故选E。 【18题详解】 根据空后内容“Using a landline phone is the main cause of lightning-related injuries. Lightning can travel into the home from through any material that conducts electricity. This includes landlines, electrical wiring, and plumbing.(使用固定电话是雷击相关伤害的主要原因。闪电可以穿过任何导电材料进入家中。这包括固定电话、电线和管道)”可知，闪电可以穿过任何导电材料进入家中。选项D“Don’t touch anything metal or electrical (不要碰任何金属或电)”与下文内容一致，指的是在雷雨天即便在室内，也不要碰任何金属或电，这些都可能使你遭遇闪电袭击。故选D。 【19题详解】 空处为本段小标题，为本段主要内容。根据本段内容“Being near water is extremely dangerous during a lightning storm, so move away from the body of water. If you are fishing, swimming or on a boat, get out of the water immediately and hurry back to the bank.(在雷暴期间，靠近水是非常危险的，所以远离水体。如果你正在钓鱼、游泳或在船上，请立即离开水，并迅速回到岸上)”可知，本段讲述的是在雷雨天我们要远离水体。选项A“Get away from the water (远离水)”正是本段主要内容。故选A。 【20题详解】 根据上文“Stay inside at least 30 minutes after the last strike. Don’t go out just because the rain is starting to let up. There is still a significant risk of lightning strikes from a departing storm.(在最后一次袭击后至少待在室内30分钟。不要因为雨开始小了就出去。离开的风暴仍有很大的雷击风险)”可知，不要雨小了就出去，此时仍然有危险。选项F“Wait for news that the danger has passed (等待危险过去的消息)”是上文内容的延续，指的是不要着急出去，要待在室内等着危险已经过去的消息。故选F。 第三部分 语言知识运用(共三节，满分45分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 When studying at the University of Pittsburgh, I went home to Virginia to see my family one weekend. “Look, I got a best sportsman’s jacket!” I said.

AI is undoubtedly a useful tool that provides instant feedback and enriches learning resources, which can boost study efficiency. However, it risks becoming a substitute for thinking if overused, harming our ability to think independently. To use AI properly, here are two suggestions. First, treat AI as a “learning partner” rather than a “doer”. Finish drafts independently before checking with AI and analyzing differences. Second, avoid relying on it for basic tasks like vocabulary exercises, as this weakens our foundational skills. Only by using AI rationally can we truly benefit from it.

We will compare some of the top online advertising platforms and help you determine which one is right for you. Google Ads: The Powerhouse of Online Advertising When it comes to online advertising, Google Ads is undoubtedly the most powerful and widely used platform with its mighty targeting options.

Facebook Ads: Targeting Your Audience with Accuracy Facebook Ads offers businesses various ad formats such as image ads, video ads, audio-visual ads, and more to engage with their target audience effectively.

B In the middle of San Francisco’s Golden Gate Park, Amanda Barrows carefully placed a wooden nightstand (床头柜) on the ground. She attached a sign reading, “Take a poem, leave a poem.” So far, more than 100 poems have come in. “It’s completely unexpected,” said Barrows. “I’m really impressed by the outpouring of support.” A park ranger (护林人) by day and a poet by night, Barrows joined a Poetry for the People class at City College of San Francisco (CCSF). Students were asked to find a way to “bring poetry into the community” as their final project. In the beginning, Barrows struggled to land on an idea. Eventually, though, it dawned on her that she could perhaps combine together her two worlds — parks and poetry. A colleague offered up a weathered nightstand, which Barrows thought would be the perfect tool for her project, as she could fill the drawer at the top with fresh paper and pens and add a box at the bottom for poems. The concept reminded her of Little Free Libraries, which featured bookstands stationed across the city. “I was inspired by the little free libraries you see in San Francisco (SF), where you ‘take a book, leave a book’, and thought, ‘Maybe I could do this with poetry.’” said Barrows. Since she only had a single nightstand to work with, Barrows decided that she would leave it in a park for four days before moving it to a new location. San Francisco’s Recreation and Park Department manages about 220 parks, and Barrows’s goal is to bring the poetry nightstand to all of them. Since the Poetry Nightstand project started, people have donated a wide range of writing. Barrows has shared most of the submissions on social media. “It really is a community project,” Barrows said. “It belongs to all of us.” One of the teachers at the CCSF poetry course, Lauren Muller, told The Washington Post that “people need poetry now”, which she suggested as the reason for the success of Barrows’s project. 4. Why did Barrows start the Poetry Nightstand project? A. To share her own poems. B. To advertise a poetry class. C. To encourage young poets. D. To complete a required task. 5. How did Barrows’s project differ from Little Free Libraries? A. It wasn’t well-received by the public. B. It wasn’t fixed on a specific site. C. It covered a larger area in the city. D. It was only open to citizens of SF. 6. What did Muller think contributed to the success of Barrows’s project? A. The benefits of writing poetry. B. The public demand for poetry. C. The help from her neighbors. D. The large number of parks in SF. 7. Which of the following words best describe Barrows? A. Courageous and calm. B. Enthusiastic and kind. C. Creative and ambitious. D. Cooperative and generous. C Imagine that you are in a crowded place. You do not notice, but someone is watching you and learns your iPhone password (密码). Then, they steal your phone. Suddenly, your photos, documents, financial information, and the rest of your digital life have been taken from you. Apple, the iPhone maker, recently released an update to its iOS operating system. It has a new feature called Stolen Device Protection (SDP). The feature makes it a lot harder for phone thieves to open the device and access important functions and settings. Apple says the feature adds extra security for users. It addresses a drawback that thieves have used to lock device owners out of their Apple accounts, delete their photos and other files from their iCloud, and take money from their bank accounts. SDP keeps track of a user’s “familiar locations”, such as their home or workplace. It also reduces the importance of passwords. Instead, it favors “biometric” (生物识别的) features such as faces or fingerprints, which are a lot harder to copy. If a thief tries to erase or reset an iPhone, the device will require a Face ID or Touch ID scan to confirm that the person is the rightful owner. The new feature does not let someone use the password or any other backup method. Another part of the new feature is designed to slow down thieves trying to change security settings. For example, if someone tries to sign out of an Apple ID account, change the password or reset the phone in an unfamiliar location, they will have to authenticate (证实) by using Face ID or Touch ID, wait an hour, and then do a second facial or fingerprint scan. Changing an Apple ID password, updating Apple ID security settings, adding or removing Face or Touch ID, and turning off the Find My device feature or Stolen Device Protection also will lead to this feature. 8. What is the function of paragraph 1? A. To remind readers to be cautious. B. To explain how password theft directly causes device loss. C. To set a phone-stealing scene. D. To introduce the following text. 9. What is special about SDP? A. It secures Apple accounts with remote locking. B. It prevents thieves from accessing bank accounts. C. It stops iCloud files from being deleted. D. It makes thieves not easy to enter the phone. 10. What does SDP require for resetting a stolen iPhone? A. An Apple ID account. B. Identity confirmation. C. Previous passwords. D. A new security setting. 11. What does the passage mainly talk about? A. Usage of biometric features. B. Apple’s iOS operating system. C. iPhone’s anti-theft measure. D. Apple ID security settings. D Jason, a straight-A student from the University of Pennsylvania, uses the term “pseudo-working” to describe how many of us study. The pseudo-worker looks and feels like someone who is working hard — he or she spends a long time in the library and is not afraid to push on late into the night — but, because of a lack of focus and concentration, he or she doesn’t actually accomplish much. This phenomenon can be seen in most colleges. For example, at Dartmouth there was a section of the main library that was open twenty-four hours a day and the students I used to see in there late at night crowded in groups, drinking coffee, were definitely pseudo-working. By placing themselves in distracting environments and insisting on working long hours, these students are damaging their brain’s ability to think clearly and efficiently to accomplish the task at hand. In the end they get half the results with twice the effort. The bigger problem here is that most students don’t even realize that they’re pseudo-working. To them pseudo-working is work — it’s how they’ve always done it, and it’s how all of their friends do it. It never crosses their mind that there might be a better way. Straight-A students, on the other hand, know all about pseudo-working. They fear it, and for good reason it not only wastes time, but it’s also mentally tiring. In fact, the most important skill in becoming a better student is the ability to get work done quickly and with a minimum of wasted effort. Some cognitive science research concludes that about 50 minutes is the optimal learning period to maximize the material learned per time unit. So how can students manage to study efficiently? One key factor is in the following simple formula: work accomplished = time spent×intensity of focus. Pseudo-working features a very low intensity of focus. Therefore, to accomplish something by pseudo-working, you need to spend a lot of time. The straight-A student maximizes of focus in order to minimize time. 12. Which of the following phenomenon is an example of pseudo-working? A. Mike is sitting in the study room in preparation for a final exam quietly. B. Jack spends a long time in the library on his essay while listening to music. C. Tom is busy taking notes while attending a lecture. D. Alice and Sara are sitting on the sofa reading their favorite books. 13. What can be inferred from paragraph 3 and 4? A. Straight-A students believe some tasks are worth twice the effort. B. Students will get good grades once they realize that pseudo-working is ineffective. C. Negative effects of pseudo-working are not fully realized by many students. D. Too much thinking may weaken the brain’s ability of the students. 14. What does the underlined word “optimal” mean in paragraph 5? A. Least. B. Effective. C. Fast. D. Best. 15. Why does the author mention the formula in the text? A. To emphasize the importance of concentration. B. To explain the reason for spending much time. C. To show the benefit of working hard. D. To prove the necessity of accomplishing work. 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) Lightning (闪电) is a beautiful and inspiring phenomenon, but it can be deadly.
