It had been more than 10 years since they’d all been together like this, and the three sisters’ eyes were filled with tears. The eldest, Rubye Cox, kept warm under a red blanket while her two “kid” sisters, each held one of her hands. They retold their favorite stories, they laughed, and Rose even held 5-month-old Leela, the newest member of the extended family. Rose was 101 years of age, while Ruth was 104 and Rubye was 110. These three centenarians were enjoying an overdue reunion, thanks to Wish of a Lifetime, a charity that flew Rose from Florida and Ruth from Oklahoma to visit Rubye in Rhode Island.
The charity is the passion project of Jeremy Bloom, a former Olympic skier and NFL player. During his years traveling the world as an athlete, he was impressed by how much more other countries and cultures seemed to respect and celebrate their elders than what he’d witnessed in America.
Inspired by that, in the summer of 2008, Bloom took the steps to form his charitable organization, which adapted the concept of the Make-A-Wish Foundation to serve the elders. For the first wish he helped realize, Bloom arranged for airplane tickets for a woman named Nancy, so she could visit her daughter, who was dying of cancer, and say goodbye in person.
Today, Wish of a Lifetime has a staff of 26 full-time employees and some 25,000 volunteers nationwide, and is funded by donations and corporate sponsorships. Most wish applications are submitted at wishofalifetime.org by a friend or family member. The 3,000 wishes granted (实现) so far include a World War II war hero returning to the beaches of Normandy, a woman writing and performing a play based on her life story, and a former Air Force captain meeting the Rolling Stones.
Wish of a Lifetime is not Bloom’s fulltime job — he’s currently the CEO of X Games. But for a long time the charity was his full-time focus. “It was my 100 percent all in,” Bloom says. “Let’s meet the seniors. Let’s change as many lives as we can.”
24. What can we know about the three sisters in paragraph 1?
A. They were separated for years. B. They worked at Wish of a Lifetime.
C. They gathered for the new baby. D. They forgot their favourite stories.
25. What mainly motivated Jeremy Bloom to start his organization?
A. His wish to help people in need. B. His experience as a retired athlete.
C. The absence of elder care in America. D. The respect for elders in other cultures.
26. How does paragraph 4 outline the charity?
A. By clarifying its principles and future. B. By briefing its operation and outcome.
C. By illustrating its chances and challenges. D. By showing its determination and effort.
27. According to the last paragraph, Jeremy Bloom ________.
A. founded the X Games sports event B. was entirely dedicated to the charity
C. works full-time assisting elderly people D. is financially supporting many people’s lives
C
In today’s world, it can feel difficult to concentrate when your smartphone buzzes (嗡嗡响) every minute or two with reminders about updates, messages and much more. How can anyone get through a 500-page book when our brain is addicted to bite-sized content?
Gloria Mark, professor at the University of California, has spent much of her career analysing how this affects us. She has used sensors to track attention duration on screens. When the studies started, in 2004, screen attention duration was about two-and-a-half minutes, but recently, has dropped to 47 seconds.
According to Prof Mark, there were “a lot of things” that had made people more distracted. “When you switch your attention duration so rapidly, there are more errors. It takes longer to do any task and people get more stressed.” Aside from making us perform tasks less effectively, the ease with which we get distracted by one thing or another on the internet also means that we can waste time that could be spent on activities considered more worthwhile.
People who have attention disorder tend to have less grey matter in brain’s parietal cortex (顶叶皮层), highlighted Nilli Lavie, professor of psychology and brain sciences at University College London. “We see greater grey matter volume in certain regions of the brain for people with a better attentional capacity,” Prof Lavie said.
The good news is that while research has indicated that in today’s world we switch our attention more often than in the past, this change is not thought to have become hard-wired in our brains. “The solution is simple: first, decide to focus, then use strategies to remove distractions,” Prof Lavie said.
Related to this, one strategy is to set an alarm that will go off after, for example, 20 minutes. And Prof Mark advises people to look ahead to the end of the day and to consider how they might spend time then, such as relaxing on the sofa after completing their work. “I want to feel accomplished because I’ve done my work,” she said. “That can help people stay on track.”
28. What is the main problem described in paragraph 1?
A. People find it a struggle to focus. B. Bite-sized contents are addictive.
C Long passages are outdated. D. Smartphones often disturb people.
29. What can we know about the online distractions?
A. They cause permanent changes to human brain.
B. They have similar influences on different people.
C. They increase the possibility for people to make errors.
D They offer people convenience to deal with various affairs.
30. What does Prof. Mark advise in the last paragraph?
A. Set frequent alarms to take short breaks.
B. Create a flexible timetable to work efficiently.
C. Visualize after-work leisure time to keep daily focus.
D. Seek a relaxing environment to minimize distractions.
31. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Save Your Brain to Stay Relaxed B. Can We Reclaim Our Lost Focus?
C. Why Are We Losing Concentration? D. Bite-sized Reading Ruined Our Brains
D
The Parker Solar Probe (探测器), the fastest object ever made by human hands, surfs the solar winds at more than 630,000 kilometers per hour. That’s more than 500 times the speed of sound on Earth. Its mission? To touch the Sun — and, ideally, to avoid overheating in the process. It achieved this goal in 2021, when the probe flew by Venus and traveled through the Sun’s outermost atmosphere. Since then, it has carved closer and closer paths, revealing extraordinary details about our star. On its closest approach, it’s expected to cross within 4.5 sun lengths away from the solar surface. And it will tolerate temperatures of 1,500℃.
Unfortunately, there’s a limit to just how close Parker can get. And there are questions scientists can’t answer without probing even deeper into the solar atmosphere. However, probing deeper into the corona (日冕) — without overheating, exploding, or falling directly into the Sun — is an enormous engineering challenge.
The first challenge is directing the probe’s path. A probe falling directly towards the Sun would likely pick up so much speed in its fall that it would either crash or be thrown in the opposite direction. To avoid this, the Parker Solar Probe made a series of complicated orbital movements around Venus, so that it could readjust its orbit and get closer by using the Venus’s gravity to slow down. But these current orbital tricks can only get us so far.
As for the extreme heat the Parker Probe used a strategy that is like sitting under a beach umbrella. Its instrumentation is packed behind a heat shield (屏障) just 4.5 inches thick, which can only get so close to the Sun. To get even closer, researchers at NASA’s Innovative Advanced Concepts program have developed two novel shields which they believe could surf a probe as close as 1 sun length from the surface. But we won’t know for sure until these shields are subjected to final testing.
At these close distances, we might discover the unknown things and learn how to better predict solar behaviors. Thus, we’d get an unprecedented look at our star — far beyond what any telescope has ever captured — and perhaps one day, with the Sun’s assistance, at our most distant neighbors.
32. What can we know about the Parker Solar Probe from paragraph 1?
A. It can reach the exact surface of the Sun. B. It can travel as fast as the sound on Earth.
C. It would help explore more about the Sun. D. It would maintain itself when getting to the Sun.
33. How does the Probe manage to avoid crashing?
A. By picking up much more speed.
B. By moving in the opposite direction.
C. By readjusting its distance to the Sun.
D. By taking advantage of Venus’s gravity.
34. What can we infer about the two novel shields?
A. They look like beach umbrellas.
B. They remain at a conceptual stage.
C. They get thicker than the Probe’s shield.
D. They are expected to be more heat-resistant.
35. What does the underlined word “unprecedented” in paragraph 5 probably mean?
A. Imaginary. B. Extraordinary. C. Unpredictable. D. Ideal.

阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
We’ve all been there after a long trip — staring blankly at emails, counting the hours until bed. Yet when 2 a.m. hits, you’re still wide awake, mindlessly looking through social media, trapped in the control of jet lag. ____36____
Our internal clock governs everything from sleep to digestion to hormones (激素分泌) and uses light to maintain its natural 24-hour cycle. But when we land in a new time zone, and day suddenly turns to night, this rhythm is thrown off balance. ____37____ But scientists have found ways to help our bodies keep up. Even reducing jet lag by a day can improve the productivity and well-being of so many people.
The best strategy? Tricking yourself into a new rhythm before travel. ____38____ For example, Timeshifter, an app developed by a neuroscientist and his team, suggests a personalized schedule for light exposure and sleep based on flight arrangements.
____39____ While the brain is our master clock, other tissues like the liver and muscles have their own clocks that regulate metabolism (新陈代谢), the body’s process of turning food into energy. That is, meal timing and composition could also be key to reducing jet lag.
In reality, there are lots of things that come into play. ____40____ While we don’t yet have a way to comprehensively avoid jet lag, at least researchers and airlines aren’t asleep on the job in their hunt for a cure.
A. A complete cure for jet lag is unlikely to find.
B So how can we deal with the annoying jet lag?
C. That’s the price for crossing time zones too fast.
D. There are some tools to help with this, of course.
E. Meanwhile, different people have different rhythms.
F. The key to the trick is to manage your light exposure.
G. However, jet lag isn’t just about light exposure and sleep.

For many children, the idea of surgery is scary. But one doctor in Brazil has found a ____41____ way to turn fear into courage — by letting his young patients enter the operating room ____42____ superheroes.
Dr. Leandro B. Guimarães, an ear, nose, and throat specialist, began this ____43____ after a difficult moment with a little girl named Allana. Just two years old, she ____44____ uncontrollably as he carried her toward the operating room. That day, he made himself a ____45____: no child would ever go into surgery in tears again.

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。
Shortly after I graduated from junior high school in 1968, my mother began repeating her favorite saying: “Learn to type, and doors will open for you, Pam.” Anything remotely connected to typing — an image of a typewriter, hearing the word “type” — could bring out this statement from her, often accompanied with finger-shaking and a small yet clear “humpf!” I would respond with a “Yes, Mom” or, when out of her view, a much-practiced eye roll.
When my mother and father came from Guyana to the United States, she brought her memories, photos, and a recipe on yellowing paper for sweet fruitcake. She also brought her sewing and makeup skills. Sewing secured her a full-time job as a finisher in New York’s clothing district, and makeup earned extra money from occasional hairdressing work. Typing was not on her work experience record. To her, it was an essential “American skill.” That meant it was up to me, her American-born child, to learn to type. She raised the importance when, the summer after I graduated from junior high, she gave me a dark brown Olivetti handy typewriter for my birthday.
“Thanks, Mom, but I can’t type,” I gently reminded her. “That’s going to change,” she answered, also gently. “Soon.”
Mom was a woman of her word. “Soon” arrived just one week later, when we took the bus to ever-busy Steinway Street in Long Island City to the Crown Business Institute, which offered typing, note-taking, bookkeeping, and other office skills. My mother practically pushed me through the door.
Inside, my eye fell on rows of students typing in front of old-fashioned Smith-Corona or Royal typewriters. Beginners picked their way around their keyboard while more experienced typists performed amazing skills, producing the machine’s distinctive clackity-clacking music. I was as impressed as I was doubtful that I would ever achieve such capability. But before I could voice a protest, my mother had registered me up for six weeks of typing lessons.
注意:
(1)续写词数应为150个左右;
(2)请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。
Now there was no turning back.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
As the lessons progressed, Mom showed me a side of herself that I had never seen.

This book first gives some details about my life’s challenges. I was abandoned at birth in Cambodia, but then my life changed completely after being adopted by a lovely, generous family in Singapore when I was five. There, I met a lot of people who helped improve my life, including my wife. She brings me strength and happiness every day. I am grateful for everything I’ve been through and all the lessons I’ve had. Now over 20,000 copies of the book have been sold, and that makes me feel so honored. To express this thankfulness, I will donate fifty percent of my book’s profits to a children’s home in Cambodia. I want to share this wealth with kids worldwide who are suffering from a lack of food, education or opportunity. Lastly, I’d like to send this message to all those facing hard times.

It had been more than 10 years since they’d all been together like this, and the three sisters’ eyes were filled with tears. The eldest, Rubye Cox, kept warm under a red blanket while her two “kid” sisters, each held one of her hands. They retold their favorite stories, they laughed, and Rose even held 5-month-old Leela, the newest member of the extended family. Rose was 101 years of age, while Ruth was 104 and Rubye was 110. These three centenarians were enjoying an overdue reunion, thanks to Wish of a Lifetime, a charity that flew Rose from Florida and Ruth from Oklahoma to visit Rubye in Rhode Island.
The charity is the passion project of Jeremy Bloom, a former Olympic skier and NFL player. During his years traveling the world as an athlete, he was impressed by how much more other countries and cultures seemed to respect and celebrate their elders than what he’d witnessed in America.
Inspired by that, in the summer of 2008, Bloom took the steps to form his charitable organization, which adapted the concept of the Make-A-Wish Foundation to serve the elders. For the first wish he helped realize, Bloom arranged for airplane tickets for a woman named Nancy, so she could visit her daughter, who was dying of cancer, and say goodbye in person.
Today, Wish of a Lifetime has a staff of 26 full-time employees and some 25,000 volunteers nationwide, and is funded by donations and corporate sponsorships. Most wish applications are submitted at wishofalifetime.org by a friend or family member. The 3,000 wishes granted (实现) so far include a World War II war hero returning to the beaches of Normandy, a woman writing and performing a play based on her life story, and a former Air Force captain meeting the Rolling Stones.
Wish of a Lifetime is not Bloom’s fulltime job — he’s currently the CEO of X Games. But for a long time the charity was his full-time focus. “It was my 100 percent all in,” Bloom says. “Let’s meet the seniors. Let’s change as many lives as we can.”
24. What can we know about the three sisters in paragraph 1?
A. They were separated for years. B. They worked at Wish of a Lifetime.
C. They gathered for the new baby. D. They forgot their favourite stories.
25. What mainly motivated Jeremy Bloom to start his organization?
A. His wish to help people in need. B. His experience as a retired athlete.
C. The absence of elder care in America. D. The respect for elders in other cultures.
26. How does paragraph 4 outline the charity?
A. By clarifying its principles and future. B. By briefing its operation and outcome.
C. By illustrating its chances and challenges. D. By showing its determination and effort.
27. According to the last paragraph, Jeremy Bloom ________.
A. founded the X Games sports event B. was entirely dedicated to the charity
C. works full-time assisting elderly people D. is financially supporting many people’s lives
【答案】24. A 25. D 26. B 27. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了Jeremy Bloom受其他国家尊老文化启发创立慈善组织Wish of a Lifetime,通过捐赠和志愿者网络帮助老年人实现心愿,如三位百岁姐妹团聚、老兵重返诺曼底等。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“It had been more than 10 years since they’d all been together like this (她们已经有10多年没有像这样在一起过了)”和“These three centenarians were enjoying an overdue reunion, thanks to Wish of a Lifetime, a charity that flew Rose from Florida and Ruth from Oklahoma to visit Rubye in Rhode Island. (这三位百岁老人正在享受一次迟来的团聚,这要感谢Wish of a Lifetime慈善组织,该组织将佛罗里达州的Rose和俄克拉何马州的Ruth送到罗得岛探望Rubye。)”可知,三姐妹分开多年。故选A项。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“During his years traveling the world as an athlete, he was impressed by how much more other countries and cultures seemed to respect and celebrate their elders than what he’d witnessed in America. (在他作为运动员周游世界的那些年里,他印象深刻的是,其他国家和文化似乎比他在美国看到的更尊重和赞美他们的老人。)”和第三段中“Inspired by that, in the summer of 2008, Bloom took the steps to form his charitable organization (受此启发,2008年夏天,Bloom开始着手组建自己的慈善组织)”可知,Jeremy Bloom创建该组织是受其他文化对长者的尊重的激励。故选D项。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“Today, Wish of a Lifetime has a staff of 26 full-time employees and some 25,000 volunteers nationwide, and is funded by donations and corporate sponsorships. Most wish applications are submitted at wishofalifetime.org by a friend or family member. The 3,000 wishes granted (实现) so far include a World War II war hero returning to the beaches of Normandy, a woman writing and performing a play based on her life story, and a former Air Force captain meeting the Rolling Stones (如今,Wish of a Lifetime在全国拥有26名全职员工和2.5万名志愿者,资金来自捐赠和企业赞助。大多数愿望申请都是由朋友或家人在wishofalifetime.org网站上提交的。到目前为止,实现的愿望有3000个,其中包括一个二战英雄回到诺曼底海滩,一个女人根据自己的生活故事编写并表演戏剧,以及一个前空军上尉见到滚石乐队)”可知,该段简述了该组织的运营与成果,涵盖工作人员、资金来源、申请方式和已实现的愿望。故选B项。
【27题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“But for a long time the charity was his full-time focus. “It was my 100 percent all in,” Bloom says. (但在很长一段时间里,慈善事业是他的全职工作。“这是我百分之百的投入,”Bloom说。)”可知,Jeremy Bloom曾全力投入这一慈善组织的工作。故选B项。

In today’s world, it can feel difficult to concentrate when your smartphone buzzes (嗡嗡响) every minute or two with reminders about updates, messages and much more. How can anyone get through a 500-page book when our brain is addicted to bite-sized content?
Gloria Mark, professor at the University of California, has spent much of her career analysing how this affects us. She has used sensors to track attention duration on screens. When the studies started, in 2004, screen attention duration was about two-and-a-half minutes, but recently, has dropped to 47 seconds.
According to Prof Mark, there were “a lot of things” that had made people more distracted. “When you switch your attention duration so rapidly, there are more errors. It takes longer to do any task and people get more stressed.” Aside from making us perform tasks less effectively, the ease with which we get distracted by one thing or another on the internet also means that we can waste time that could be spent on activities considered more worthwhile.
People who have attention disorder tend to have less grey matter in brain’s parietal cortex (顶叶皮层), highlighted Nilli Lavie, professor of psychology and brain sciences at University College London. “We see greater grey matter volume in certain regions of the brain for people with a better attentional capacity,” Prof Lavie said.
The good news is that while research has indicated that in today’s world we switch our attention more often than in the past this change is not thought to have become hard-wired in our brains. “The solution is simple: first, decide to focus, then use strategies to remove distractions,” Prof Lavie said.
Related to this, one strategy is to set an alarm that will go off after, for example, 20 minutes. And Prof Mark advises people to look ahead to the end of the day and to consider how they might spend time then, such as relaxing on the sofa after completing their work. “I want to feel accomplished because I’ve done my work,” she said. “That can help people stay on track.”
28. What is the main problem described in paragraph 1?
A. People find it a struggle to focus. B. Bite-sized contents are addictive.
C. Long passages are outdated. D. Smartphones often disturb people.
29. What can we know about the online distractions?
A. They cause permanent changes to human brain.
B. They have similar influences on different people.
C. They increase the possibility for people to make errors.
D. They offer people convenience to deal with various affairs.
30. What does Prof. Mark advise in the last paragraph?
A. Set frequent alarms to take short breaks.
B. Create a flexible timetable to work efficiently.
C. Visualize after-work leisure time to keep daily focus.
D. Seek a relaxing environment to minimize distractions.
31. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Save Your Brain to Stay Relaxed B. Can We Reclaim Our Lost Focus?
C. Why Are We Losing Concentration? D. Bite-sized Reading Ruined Our Brains
【答案】28. A 29. C 30. C 31. B
【解析】

D
The Parker Solar Probe (探测器), the fastest object ever made by human hands, surfs the solar winds at more than 630,000 kilometers per hour. That’s more than 500 times the speed of sound on Earth. Its mission? To touch the Sun — and, ideally, to avoid overheating in the process. It achieved this goal in 2021, when the probe flew by Venus and traveled through the Sun’s outermost atmosphere. Since then, it has carved closer and closer paths, revealing extraordinary details about our star. On its closest approach, it’s expected to cross within 4.5 sun lengths away from the solar surface. And it will tolerate temperatures of 1,500℃.
Unfortunately, there’s a limit to just how close Parker can get. And there are questions scientists can’t answer without probing even deeper into the solar atmosphere. However, probing deeper into the corona (日冕) — without overheating, exploding, or falling directly into the Sun — is an enormous engineering challenge.
The first challenge is directing the probe’s path. A probe falling directly towards the Sun would likely pick up so much speed in its fall that it would either crash or be thrown in the opposite direction. To avoid this, the Parker Solar Probe made a series of complicated orbital movements around Venus, so that it could readjust its orbit and get closer by using the Venus’s gravity to slow down. But these current orbital tricks can only get us so far.
As for the extreme heat, the Parker Probe used a strategy that is like sitting under a beach umbrella. Its instrumentation is packed behind a heat shield (屏障) just 4.5 inches thick, which can only get so close to the Sun. To get even closer, researchers at NASA’s Innovative Advanced Concepts program have developed two novel shields which they believe could surf a probe as close as 1 sun length from the surface. But we won’t know for sure until these shields are subjected to final testing.
At these close distances, we might discover the unknown things and learn how to better predict solar behaviors. Thus, we’d get an unprecedented look at our star — far beyond what any telescope has ever captured — and perhaps one day, with the Sun’s assistance, at our most distant neighbors.
32. What can we know about the Parker Solar Probe from paragraph 1?
A. It can reach the exact surface of the Sun. B. It can travel as fast as the sound on Earth.
C. It would help explore more about the Sun. D. It would maintain itself when getting to the Sun.
33. How does the Probe manage to avoid crashing?
A. By picking up much more speed.
B. By moving in the opposite direction.
C. By readjusting its distance to the Sun.
D. By taking advantage of Venus’s gravity.
34. What can we infer about the two novel shields?
A. They look like beach umbrellas.
B. They remain at a conceptual stage.
C. They get thicker than the Probe’s shield.
D. They are expected to be more heat-resistant.
35. What does the underlined word “unprecedented” in paragraph 5 probably mean?
A. Imaginary. B. Extraordinary. C. Unpredictable. D. Ideal.
【答案】32. C 33. D 34. D 35. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。本文介绍了人类最快航天器帕克太阳探测器的探测使命、已达成的成果(如穿越太阳最外层大气),以及进一步抵近太阳探测面临的轨道控制和极端高温两大工程挑战,同时展望了近距离探测太阳对揭示宇宙奥秘、预测太阳活动及深空探索的重要意义。
【32题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“It achieved this goal in 2021, when the probe flew by Venus and traveled through the Sun’s outermost atmosphere. Since then, it has carved closer and closer paths, revealing extraordinary details about our star. On its closest approach, it’s expected to cross within 4.5 sun lengths away from the solar surface.(该探测器于2021年达成这一目标:当时它飞掠金星,穿过了太阳的最外层大气。自那以后,探测器不断规划出越来越接近太阳的轨道,揭示了关于这颗恒星的诸多非凡细节。在其最近距离接近太阳时,预计将抵达距离太阳表面仅4.5个太阳半径的范围之内。)”可知,帕克太阳探测器穿过太阳最外层大气,揭示关于太阳的非凡细节,帮助进一步探索太阳。故选C。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“A probe falling directly towards the Sun would likely pick up so much speed in its fall that it would either crash or be thrown in the opposite direction. To avoid this, the Parker Solar Probe made a series of complicated orbital movements around Venus, so that it could readjust its orbit and get closer by using the Venus’s gravity to slow down.(若探测器径直朝向太阳飞行,其下落过程中很可能会加速到极高速度,最终要么坠毁,要么被抛向相反方向。为避免这种情况,帕克太阳探测器围绕金星执行了一系列复杂的轨道机动,借助金星引力减速,从而调整轨道、进一步靠近太阳。)”可知,帕克太阳探测器利用金星的引力,调整轨道以避免撞击。故选D。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中“As for the extreme heat, the Parker Probe used a strategy that is like sitting under a beach umbrella. Its instrumentation is packed behind a heat shield (屏障) just 4.5 inches thick, which can only get so close to the Sun. To get even closer, researchers at NASA’s Innovative Advanced Concepts program have developed two novel shields which they believe could surf a probe as close as 1 sun length from the surface. But we won’t know for sure until these shields are subjected to final testing.(关于极端高温问题,帕克太阳探测器采用了一种类似坐在沙滩伞下的防护策略。其搭载的仪器设备被安置在一块仅4.5英寸厚的隔热屏后方,但这一热防护罩的防护能力仅能支持探测器靠近太阳到当前的距离。为了实现更近距离的探测,美国国家航空航天局(NASA)创新先进概念项目的研究人员已研发出两款新型防护罩——他们认为,这两款防护罩可使探测器能够抵近至距离太阳表面仅1个太阳半径的区域。不过,在这些防护罩通过最终测试之前,我们尚无法确定其实际效果。)”可知,现有高温防护的策略是“像坐在沙滩伞下”,即设备安置在隔热屏障后方,并非热防护罩外形像沙滩伞,新型防护罩已经研发出来,进入测试阶段,它可使探测器更接近太阳,即更耐高温。故选D。
【35题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“At these close distances, we might discover the unknown things and learn how to better predict solar behaviors.(在如此近的探测距离下,我们或许能发现未知的宇宙奥秘,进而掌握更精准预测太阳活动的方法。)”以及下文“far beyond what any telescope has ever captured(远远超过任何望远镜所能捕捉到的)”可知,对太阳这颗恒星的观测会是“前所未有的、非凡的”,unprecedented与Extraordinary意思一致。故选B。
第二节(共5个小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
We’ve all been there after a long trip — staring blankly at emails, counting the hours until bed. Yet when 2 a.m. hits, you’re still wide awake, mindlessly looking through social media, trapped in the control of jet lag. ____36____
Our internal clock governs everything from sleep to digestion to hormones (激素分泌) and uses light to maintain its natural 24-hour cycle. But when we land in a new time zone, and day suddenly turns to night, this rhythm is thrown off balance. ____37____ But scientists have found ways to help our bodies keep up. Even reducing jet lag by a day can improve the productivity and well-being of so many people.
The best strategy? Tricking yourself into a new rhythm before travel. ____38____ For example, Timeshifter, an app developed by a neuroscientist and his team, suggests a personalized schedule for light exposure and sleep based on flight arrangements.
____39____ While the brain is our master clock, other tissues like the liver and muscles have their own clocks that regulate metabolism (新陈代谢), the body’s process of turning food into energy. That is, meal timing and composition could also be key to reducing jet lag.
In reality, there are lots of things that come into play. ____40____ While we don’t yet have a way to comprehensively avoid jet lag, at least researchers and airlines aren’t asleep on the job in their hunt for a cure.
A. A complete cure for jet lag is unlikely to find.
B. So how can we deal with the annoying jet lag?
C. That’s the price for crossing time zones too fast.
D. There are some tools to help with this, of course.
E. Meanwhile, different people have different rhythms.
F. The key to the trick is to manage your light exposure.
G. However, jet lag isn’t just about light exposure and sleep.
【答案】36. C 37. A 38. D 39. G 40. E
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章探讨了时差反应(jet lag)的成因、对人体的影响,并介绍了通过调整光照、使用科技工具、合理安排饮食等多种策略来缓解时差反应的方法。
【36题详解】
上文“Yet when 2 a.m. hits, you’re still wide awake, mindlessly looking through social media, trapped in the control of jet lag. (然而当凌晨两点来临,你仍然清醒异常,漫无目的地浏览着社交媒体,深陷于时差反应的控制之中)” 描述了跨时区旅行后深夜难以入睡的典型时差反应状态。C选项 “That’s the price for crossing time zones too fast. (这就是过快跨越时区的代价)”是对上文所述现象的总结和定性,其中的“That”指代上文的“时差反应”状态,点明了这种不适是快速跨越时区的必然结果,上下文逻辑自然衔接。故选C项。
【37题详解】
上文“But when we land in a new time zone, and day suddenly turns to night, this rhythm is thrown off balance. (但当我们抵达一个新的时区,白昼突然变为黑夜,这种节律就被打乱了)”解释了时差产生的原因:生物钟节律失衡。A选项“So how can we deal with the annoying jet lag? (那么我们该如何应对恼人的时差反应呢?)”通过疑问句承上启下,由对问题的描述自然过渡到对解决方案的探讨,引出下文科学家寻找缓解方法的内容,符合行文逻辑。故选A项。
【38题详解】
上文“The best strategy? Tricking yourself into a new rhythm before travel. (最佳策略?在旅行前就让自己适应新的节律)”提出了通过提前调整来适应新节律的策略。下文“For example, Timeshifter, an app developed by a neuroscientist and his team, suggests a personalized schedule for light exposure and sleep based on flight arrangements. (例如,由一位神经科学家及其团队开发的应用程序“Timeshifter”,根据航班安排为光照和睡眠提供个性化的时间表)”举例说明了一种实现该策略的工具。D选项“There are some tools to help with this, of course. (当然,有一些工具可以帮助做到这一点)”恰好连接了“策略”与“具体工具举例”,句中“this”指代上文提到的“提前调整节律”的策略。故选D项。
【39题详解】
下文“While the brain is our master clock, other tissues like the liver and muscles have their own clocks that regulate metabolism (新陈代谢), the body’s process of turning food into energy. That is, meal timing and composition could also be key to reducing jet lag.(虽然大脑是我们体内总的主时钟,但像肝脏和肌肉等其他组织也有各自的生物钟来调节新陈代谢,即身体将食物转化为能量的过程。也就是说,进餐时间和食物构成对于缓解时差反应同样至关重要)”开始讨论除了大脑主时钟外,其他组织器官的节律以及饮食安排对缓解时差的作用。G选项 “However, jet lag isn’t just about light exposure and sleep. (然而,时差反应不仅仅与光照和睡眠有关)”与上文构成转折,将讨论范围从光照、睡眠这两个主要因素扩展到其他领域(如饮食),引出下文的新话题,起到了承上启下的作用。故选G项。
【40题详解】
上文“In reality, there are lots of things that come into play. (事实上,有很多因素都在起作用)”总述缓解时差涉及多方面因素。下文“While we don’t yet have a way to comprehensively avoid jet lag, at least researchers and airlines aren’t asleep on the job in their hunt for a cure. (虽然我们还没有办法完全避免时差反应,但至少研究人员和航空公司都在积极寻找解决方案,并未懈怠)”总结了现状并表达了积极展望。E选项 “Meanwhile, different people have different rhythms. (同时,不同的人有不同的节律)”与上文“lots of things”呼应,列举了影响时差反应的另一个具体因素(个体节律差异),与上下文语意连贯,共同说明了问题的复杂性。故选E项。

Speak Up Now!
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
Speak Up Now!
Many of us struggle to speak English fluently, primarily due to the fear of making mistakes and sounding imperfect in front of others. This pursuit of perfection often leaves us too nervous to express ourselves freely, trapping our true voice inside.
I believe the key is to shift our mindset. We must remember that language is a tool for connection, not a perfect performance. Every mistake is a valuable step in the learning process, not a failure. Progress, not perfection, should be our goal.
So, let’s start by practicing in low-pressure situations, like with friends or in an English Corner. Don’t be afraid to stumble. Speak out, make your voice heard, and watch your confidence grow!

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。
Shortly after I graduated from junior high school in 1968, my mother began repeating her favorite saying: “Learn to type, and doors will open for you, Pam.” Anything remotely connected to typing — an image of a typewriter, hearing the word “type” — could bring out this statement from her, often accompanied with finger-shaking and a small yet clear “humpf!” I would respond with a “Yes, Mom” or, when out of her view, a much-practiced eye roll.
When my mother and father came from Guyana to the United States, she brought her memories, photos, and a recipe on yellowing paper for sweet fruitcake. She also brought her sewing and makeup skills. Sewing secured her a full-time job as a finisher in New York’s clothing district, and makeup earned extra money from occasional hairdressing work. Typing was not on her work experience record. To her, it was an essential “American skill.” That meant it was up to me, her American-born child, to learn to type. She raised the importance when, the summer after I graduated from junior high, she gave me a dark brown Olivetti handy typewriter for my birthday.
“Thanks, Mom, but I can’t type,” I gently reminded her. “That’s going to change,” she answered, also gently. “Soon.”
Mom was a woman of her word. “Soon” arrived just one week later, when we took the bus to ever-busy Steinway Street in Long Island City to the Crown Business Institute, which offered typing, note-taking, bookkeeping, and other office skills. My mother practically pushed me through the door.
Inside, my eye fell on rows of students typing in front of old-fashioned Smith-Corona or Royal typewriters. Beginners picked their way around their keyboard while more experienced typists performed amazing skills, producing the machine’s distinctive clackity-clacking music. I was as impressed as I was doubtful that I would ever achieve such capability. But before I could voice a protest, my mother had registered me up for six weeks of typing lessons.

【答案】
Now there was no turning back. Yet, the path ahead was filled with frustration. My fingers, clumsy and uncoordinated, kept getting tangled up. The sentence “the quick brown fox” turned into a chaotic mass, and the steady tapping sounds around me only made me awkward. The harder I tried, the more the typewriter seemed to laugh at my efforts. Each day I came home feeling more discouraged, certain that the graceful dance of the keys was a language I’d never learn. The typewriter on my desk stood like a dark reminder of my failure.
As the lessons progressed, Mom showed me a side of herself that I had never seen. One night, I found her bent over the Olivetti, glimpsing at a beginner’s chart I had thrown away. Her skilled hands, so steady with a needle, looked clumsy and stiff. “If this is the key to your future,” she said, not looking up, her voice filled with focus, “then I’ll learn it with you. We’ll figure it out together.” She pressed a key, then another, slowly spelling out “P-A-M”. Seeing her humble herself to learn something new just to encourage me, a fresh wave of determination welled up inside me. My mother, who had traveled across oceans to give me a better life, was now crossing this new challenge with me. How could I ever give up?
