Section B Directions: In Section B, you will hear two short passages and one longer conversation, and you will be asked several questions on each of the passages and the conversation. The passages and the conversation will be read twice, but the questions will be spoken only once. When you hear a question, you will have seven seconds to decide which choice would be the best answer to the question you have heard. Questions 11 through 13 are based on the following passage. Now you have 30 seconds to read all the choices on the screen. If you want to live a long life, there is a list of recommendations for you: staying active, eating vegetables and fruit, not smoking, and getting enough sleep. But new research suggests another possible factor: living close to the sea. A research team from Ohio State University looked at official population records of over sixty-six thousand people and compared how long they lived with where they lived. The results show that people living near the coast tend to live more than a year longer than average. By contrast, people living in urban areas near inland rivers and lakes actually have slightly shorter lives. Why might this be the case? The researchers point out that coastal areas often have better air quality, more comfortable temperatures, and more opportunities for outdoor activities. These factors could improve both physical and mental health. In addition, people who can afford to live by the sea may also enjoy better living conditions in general, which might also be an explanation for the difference. However, the scientists are careful to conclude that this is not a simple cause-and-effect situation. Many other elements, such as pollution, wealth, or lifestyle choices, may influence how long people live. Still, the findings add to the evidence that nature, and especially the ocean, may play an important role in our overall life length. Now listen again. Questions 11. What does the new research mainly tell us? 11. A. Environment along coasts is good for health. B. Beach activities promote overall health. C. Living by the sea helps people live longer. D. People near waters lead the longest life. 12. According to the research, which of the following is true? 12. A. Urban residents enjoy more outdoor activities. B. People living near seas enjoy better air quality. C. Dampness by the lake affects physical health. D. Seaside residents have different views on health. 13. What can we learn from the passage? A. Hugging nature is the key to a long life. B. Many factors affect people’s length of life. C. People near sea know the secret to a long life. D. Choosing right lifestyles matters most in health. Questions 14 through 16 are based on the following passage. Now you have 30 seconds to read all the choices on the screen. Climate change is not only causing droughts, wildfires, and extreme heat but is also making so-called “100-year storms” happen more frequently. In recent decades, severe storms, including floods and hurricanes related to these storms, have been occurring two or three times within that expected window. Since 1999, for example, North Carolina, a state in the US, has experienced multiple floods that would have been classified as once-in-a-century events. Scientists explain that as the planet warms, the atmosphere becomes “thirstier”; in other words, a hotter atmosphere can hold more water. That means when it rains, storms are becoming stronger and more damaging. One study found that the possibility of deadly hurricanes has increased by 300%, and events once expected every 100 years may now occur every 20 years. Forecasts for the 2025 hurricane season already show a high chance of above-average storm activity. Up to five major hurricanes could form, with the potential to hit areas already at high risk. Other extreme events—heat waves, droughts, and wildfires—are also becoming more common. Experts warn that adaptation alone is not enough. Constructing barriers and moving cities can offer short-term relief, but the most effective solution is cutting down on greenhouse gas release, which will allow the climate to be stable and lower the risk of damaging storms. Now listen again. Questions 14. What is the main problem mentioned in the passage? A. Increasing frequency of severe storms. B. Lack of solutions to extreme weather. C. Growing range of disaster-stricken area. D. People’s concern about stormy weather. 15. According to scientists, why are storms getting stronger? 15. A. Because the air quality is worsening. B. Because hotter air contains more water. C. Because storms come with hurricanes. D. Because Earth is thirsty for huge rain. 16. What do experts suggest as the most effective long-term solution? 16. A. Reducing greenhouse gas release. B. Relocating those major cities. C. Setting up barriers on hurricane routes. D. Carrying out more relevant research. Questions 17 through 20 are based on the following conversation. Now you have 40 seconds to read all the choices on the screen. M: Ugh, I can’t seem to focus on anything these days. My mind just keeps wandering. W: I’m sorry to hear that, but I just read an article about why it’s so hard to focus. It even introduced a method called TAKE-5. M: TAKE-5? Sounds like a coffee break. What’s that about? W: It’s a set of tips. Take frequent breaks. Actively engage in one task. Keep distractions to a minimum. Escape the multitasking trap. And take a 5-minute break to focus again. M: Huh, I’ve tried multitasking many times and usually end up exhausting myself with handling too many tasks at once. W: The article also mentioned how exercise and a sound sleep help a lot. Even two minutes of moving around can sharpen your focus. M: Two minutes? That sounds amazing. Maybe I should try exercising between tasks instead of checking my phone. W: Exactly. And if all else fails, it might just mean your brain needs a break. Sometimes stepping away makes you more productive when you come back. M: That’s really a good point. I used to have an outdated idea that if I’m not constantly at my desk, I’m not working hard enough. W: Me too. But the article has made it clear that the quality of focus matters more than the hours you spend. A refreshed mind can solve problems much faster. Now listen again. Questions 17. What are the speakers mainly talking about? 17. A. How to improve people’s focus. B. Why multitasking is a wrong idea. C. How to focus on reading articles. D. Why some people cannot focus. 18. Which of the following is a tip from TAKE-5? 18. A. Set a rule for coffee break. B. Engage in collective work. C. Arrange frequent breaks. D. Take a break to do exercise. 19. What does the man say about his own habit? 19. A. He hesitates over which task to focus on. B. He tries to do different things at once. C. He spends hours sharpening his focus. D. He avoids talking with others at work. 20. What extra advice does the article give besides TAKE-5? 20. A. To update ideas and eat refreshments. B. To take exercise and sleep well. C. To spend time reading relative articles. D. To step away from desk frequently. 1 / 7 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $One listening comprehension section a directions.

Grammar and Vocabulary Section A Directions: After reading the passage below, fill in the blanks to make the passage coherent and grammatically correct. For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank. Not in Fear of Technology, but in Pursuit of Benefits Back in the 20th century, bored students might draw in their textbooks or stare out of the window. Technology has completely changed the situation. Nowadays many teenagers bring smartphones to classrooms, partly (1) the apps on phones are appealing. Governments from China to Finland, as well as dozens of American states, have introduced different bans on these handsets due to worries about their effect on classroom performance. This may seem a fear of technology but it is not. Banning phones from lessons doesn’t mean (2) (rob) children of experience with modern technology. They get plenty of that outside school; gaps can be filled up. Tech-enthusiasts like to point to a long history of (3) (misplace) doubt about technology and its impact on education. Their favorite example is Plato, who complained that writing, (4) functions cover storing facts and arguments on paper, would weaken pupils’ ability to remember them. Plato was wrong, but his mistake two thousand years ago does not mean that today’s worries are misguided. These tech-enthusiasts do not always know (5) is in the best interests of the students. Actually, banning smartphones from classrooms improves their academic performance. A recent study, following 17,000 higher-education students in India for three years, concluded that requiring phones (6) (leave) outside classrooms led to a measurable improvement in grades. And the benefits of restricting smartphone use may go (7) better exam results. Another finding in the Indian study was that, after a while, the bans became popular with students. That fits with tales from young people, suggesting that the problem (8) lie in collective action. If most students are socializing on phones, anyone who tries to focus on lessons instead loses some networking opportunities. But if schools completely ban smartphone use, (9) will spend time socializing this way. Students will then spend more time interacting with friends in the real world. So, any school that has not restricted smartphones (10) (advise) to ban them during classes. In the long run, students may express gratitude for the ban. Section B Directions: After reading the passage below, fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box. Each word can be used only once. Note that there is one word more than you need. A. fuel B. included C. intensified D. invisibility E. isolated F. means G. practically H. risk I. seemingly J. striking K. updates Does Group Chat Make You Feel Bad? I’m in a meeting when my phone starts to flash with notices and messages constantly stream in. While the meeting is important, I’m distracted and eager to pick up the phone. Is it a new job announcement from a friend? Has something terrible happened? My anxiety is 11 as new messages mount, and I’m praying this meeting ends sooner. This is a typical emotional change of being a modern group chat member, and I’m not alone. Starting as a new 12 for long-distance connection with multiple friends, group chats have become the common way we stay in touch. According to a recent research project, an average adult in Britain is part of 83 group chats—a(n) 13 situation highlighting how overconnected people are. But why exactly do they cause such negative emotions? “When I see tons of messages coming through, I get stressed that I may lose track of 14 if I don’t check them from time to time. Or I worry I’ve said something wrong,” says one interviewee, “Not joining in a group chat may in some way 15 your pressure, because then you’ll get loads to catch up on.” There’s a lack of real connection too. “Group chats can make us feel surrounded, yet still somehow on the outside,” says Abby Rawlinson, a psychologist, “If you know everyone’s chatting and you’re not part of the flow, it arouses the ache of 16 .” However, the darker side of a group chat occurs when things go from lighthearted jokes to 17 harmless comments causing the wildfire of negativity. “FOMO [fear of missing out] in group chats is real,” says another interviewee, “If you’re added to a smaller group chat without a certain friend, that implies the friend has been 18 for a certain reason. No one in the new chat group intends to hurt others, but somehow, gossip about that friend later appears, indicating that leaving group chats equals the 19 of being talked about behind your back.” “The emotional politics of a group chat are the dynamics that shape how seen, 20 or valued we feel,” says Rawlinson, “Over time, these patterns start to mirror real-life social system and cause misunderstanding.” II. Reading Comprehension Section A Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context. A new study confirms that technologies installed to remove Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) from drinking water are highly effective at removing other harmful pollutants, such as trihalomethanes (三卤甲烷) and haloacetic acids (卤乙酸). The finding 21 the argument for investing in these advanced water treatment systems. PFAS are a class of thousands of 22 compounds that do not easily break down in the environment. They are linked to a range of serious 23 problems, including various cancers and developmental delays. Their 24 presence is a major concern: a 2023 U.S. Geological Survey study estimated that up to 45% of tap water could contain at least one PFAS chemical. So, the systems’ removal of PFAS is of great significance. Additionally, new research from the Environmental Working Group 25 other benefits. By analyzing data from 19 water systems that installed PFAS treatment, the study compared 26 of disinfection byproducts before and after installation. The results showed a clear reduction: trihalomethanes decreased by an average of 42 percent; haloacetic acids by 50 percent. Long-term 27 to these byproducts is linked to certain cancers, and getting rid of them could prevent thousands of illnesses. 28 , the administration set the first-ever national legal limits on six specific PFAS chemicals in drinking water, requiring that water suppliers meet the standard by 2029. Just like in most cases, application of the rule faces difficulties. While experts confirm wider benefits of the treatment systems, they also note that real-world results can 29 due to factors like seasonal differences and diverse sources of pollution. That’s only a minor problem; some major ones await our resolution. There were 30 from water suppliers about the huge expected costs of installing these facilities. Afterwards, the Environmental Protection Agency announced in May 2024 that it would 31 the rule—set limits to four of the six PFAS and extend the deadline by two years. This 32 has created uncertainty in regulation and slowed down action. Besides, a study showed a great 33 in adoption—only 7% of the systems are equipped with advanced filtration (过滤) function and they serve fewer than 500 people; in contrast, the rest serve over 100,000 people in rural or 34 communities—areas without sufficient financial assistance. The central question now is one of 35 . Technology exists and offers proven benefits, but do we have the resolve to enact strong policies and ensure financial support? 21. A. contradicts B. involves C. strengthens D. challenges 22. A. long-lasting B. fast-acting C. easily-degraded D. man-made 23. A. security B. health C. environment D. growth 24.

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. (A) My dad is a crossword-lover. When I was a little girl, Dad would read his crossword puzzles to me from a magazine. I can still remember how he turned his pencil excitedly as he discovered a new phrase. If my attention weakened, he would say, “Feeling sleepy? Never mind, I’ll keep reading. Some of the words may crawl into your mind.” Bit by bit, Dad introduced me to the power of words and guided my life’s calling, a purpose I never questioned or bothered to pursue. Years passing, I grew into a professional writer. I found that he never asked me to suggest a word or help him with a puzzle when I was working. For him, my words were precious; each held value. But it did not matter much to me how much I got paid for writing. I wrote because I loved word-craft and making up stories that brought ideas to life. Recently when an editor surprised me with a lower rate of pay for a piece of essay that they chose to publish online rather than in print, I was kind of hurt! But I comforted myself by looking at the bright side—so many people read the piece and shared joyful emotions and praise on social media. Although some worldly-wise friends told me that I was paid peanuts, I myself felt well rewarded. While I was content, a certain anxiety would secretly emerge: would the thought of earnings cheapen the dignity of my work? Dad’s solution was: “Why not both? Money isn’t everything, but isn’t it good to have enough to help yourself and those close to you? And for your talents and efforts to be valued?” Dad believed not only that more wealth did not mean greater happiness, but also that no effort should be undervalued. Today, when doubts cloud my mind, I think of Dad’s pencil: its purpose may be to solve a crossword puzzle, but it was also there for anyone writing down a life-changing number in a lottery ticket (彩票). So couldn’t my words help complete my life purpose and earn a better living too? Now I take up assignments—some that pay well, some that don’t—and they both fill me with joy. 36. Dad didn’t turn to the author to solve puzzles probably because he ______. A. didn’t know the fun of sharing games B. failed to see her willingness to help C. didn’t want to interrupt her literary creation D. trusted his own ability to solve puzzles 37. “I was paid peanuts” in paragraph 3 indicates that ______. A. my writing deserved a better pay B. I got some nuts from my writing C. my writing ability was overrated D. I earned more than I should have 38. What does the author mainly convey in the last paragraph? A. Dad uses a pencil to balance his life wisely. B. Her life purpose is realized through writing. C. She sees both her words’ material and spiritual value. D. Multiple roles of a pencil may help change one’s life. 39. What can we learn about Dad and the author? A. Dad developed her attention by reading. B. Dad advised her to be a professional writer. C. Dad improved her ability to solve word puzzles. D. Dad helped shape her view on writing for a living. (B) Pickleball is now one of the fastest-growing sports, and it’s tons of fun. It is played on a badminton-sized court with a net at the center. Each end of the court has a kitchen (the non-volley zone; volley is a hit of the ball before it touches the ground). Follow these simple rules and I bet you’ll be out playing doubles pickleball in no time. #1: each rally (往返拍击) begins with a serve The game starts with a serve. In the doubles, the player on the right side of their court always starts the serve. You serve crosscourt to your opponent. The serving player can either hit the ball after it bounces or out of the air and the serve must avoid landing in the kitchen or on its line. When hitting a volley serve, your paddle (球拍) must move in an upward path. #2: the ball must bounce once on each side before either team can volley Before any player can hit a shot out of the air, the ball must bounce once on each side. So, if your partner is serving and you start up at the kitchen, you’re in a dangerous position, because the returning team can hit a shot right at you. If you react with a volley, it’s considered a fault and you’ll lose the point* because you don’t let the ball bounce first on your side. (*A point is a unit of scoring that can only be won by the serving team.) #3: each point continues until a fault After the serve, play continues until a rally is won either by someone hitting a winning shot or a fault is committed. A fault ends the rally. In pickleball, there are some basic fault types: The ball lands in the kitchen. The ball lands out of bounds (behind the baseline or outside the sideline). The ball hits the net and falls on your side. The ball bounces twice on one side before the player can return it. (To Be Continued) 40. When your partner is serving, you are not advised to start at the kitchen because ______. A. your opponent is likely to gain a point B. the ball won’t bounce on the other side C. your partner is likely to be hit D. you probably won’t gain a point 41. According to #3, which pictures show faults? ① ② ③ ④ A. ①② B. ②③ C. ②④ D. ③④ 42. Where may you find this article? A. In a journal on sports science. B. From a profile of the sports’ inventor. C. At the “How-To” section of a sports website. D. On an official document of sports rule clarification. (C) Even if you don’t worry that artificial intelligence (AI) will destroy the human race, you might fear its huge appetite for electricity will damage the environment. Asking an AI chatbot a question is equivalent to using ten times more energy than an old-fashioned internet search. As the AI boom took off, you may think that emissions (排放) from tech giants evidently rise. With huge investments in new data centers planned, more rises seem inevitable. But the worry is on shaky ground. In absolute terms, AI may be less energy-hungry than assumed. The International Energy Agency (IEA) estimates that electricity consumption by data centers could more than double in five years. Even if energy usage increases sharply, the base is still low. Data centers currently account for only about 1.5% of global electricity consumption—and the vast majority of that is due to streaming, social media and online shopping, not AI. Handled in a smart way, some of AI’s electricity use will help with greening the economy. AI is highly capable of identifying complex patterns and improving systems, which can help reduce emissions. It is already helping improve the efficiency of electrical networks with real-time balance of supply and demand. Besides, it has assisted in reducing petrol consumption in shipping through adjusting routes and speeds to the fittest, and spotting leaks of methane (a greenhouse gas) by cooperating with satellites and ground sensors. The task for policymakers and industry bosses is to maximize AI’s advantages in saving energy, thus minimizing its climate impacts. The most elegant solution would be for governments to set a proper price on carbon. But because a global carbon price remains a distant dream, it would be more realistic to focus on other measures. The first is greater openness. From August 2026, the EU will require some AI developers to report their energy use in detail, which can be copied elsewhere. A second is to rethink how data centers operate. The IEA notes that arranging to shift volume of work among data centers at different times could reduce pressure and help balance energy networks, making them better matched to renewable power. Third, tech firms should live up to their environmental promises. Many now rely heavily on buying renewable-energy credits, a problematic way of balancing their emissions.

An ambitious plan to transform the museum has thus taken shape and is under heated discussion. How Could Louvre (卢浮宫) Robbery Have Happened? In the morning on October the 19th 2025, after thieves broke into the Louvre Museum in broad daylight, making off with 8 pieces of treasures, an embarrassed nation is asking itself a question: How could France let this happen? 47 Problems related to funds have actually held back the state-owned museum’s ability to manage massive crowds and ultimately secure some of the world’s most valuable collections of art. The fact that the break-in occurred at the Louvre Palace, a symbol of France’s cultural might, and encountered little resistance, has French officials questioning not just the Louvre’s defenselessness, but that of cultural sites across the country. Several ministers arranged for a crisis meeting to examine the extent of the security breakdown. Justice Minister Gérald Darmanin expressed, “One thing is certain: it’s that we have failed”. 48 The museum staff are placing the blame on years of staffing cuts. The continuous layoffs have left the Louvre with tough choices over where to position a limited number of security guards and cameras. They guard more than 700,000 square feet of exhibition space that contains masterpieces ranging from the Mona Lisa to many ancient statues from Egypt. 49 “We were shouting from the rooftops,” Élise Muller, a Louvre security guard and union official said, “We can now see how little we were listened to.” In June, museum staff even mounted a protest over conditions at the museum, saying the crowds were adding stress to the security team in charge of monitoring its collection. 50 President Macron intends to construct a new entrance and take pressure off the symbolic glass structure where visitors currently enter the museum and fast-track visits to the Mona Lisa, the Louvre’s main attraction. But critics complain Macron’s plan won’t be finished until 2031 at the earliest. Besides, finding public funds for any repair of the Louvre is going to be a challenge. The longer France struggles to walk out of the financial collapse, the more it chances losing priceless works in robbery that French officials say are increasingly well-organized. III.

Mercury (汞) Threat in Ocean A newly-published study, led by researchers from Peking University with experts from the United States, the United Kingdom and the Netherlands, has found that ocean, with its continental shelf holding the largest amount of mercury, is now facing a rapidly increasing possibility of mercury release. According to the study, continental shelves are disturbed by human activities. Trawling, during which fishermen pull wide nets behind their ships for fish, is one to blame. When the fishing boats with large nets drag through the seabed, they boost the release rate of mercury buried for decades or centuries. The research also uncovered the similar negative impact of dredging, where people remove mud and unwanted materials from the shelf with special machines to deepen it or look for something. The above activities disturb over 5,000 tons of mercury annually, speeding up its release. Meanwhile, climate change is worsening the situation. The researchers have concluded from their observation that the increasing quantity of mercury release in recent decades from ocean is related to global warming, a tendency with various side effects. They explained that rising temperatures put the decomposition of organic matter in continental shelves on a faster track, promoting the amount of mercury release. Another study on waters, continental shelf being a part, has shown that for every 10°C increase in temperature, the breakdown rate of sediments (沉积物) almost doubles. Therefore, it is suggested that policies be made on banning or at least reducing inappropriate ocean resource development based on scientific assessment and international cooperation. And a clear goal for a slower global warming pace, supported by reliable scientific research, should be set and then translated into an actionable strategy and achieved worldwide. If these measures are adopted, this last line of mercury defense will probably be safeguarded. IV.
