A
For almost eight years, Leah Mackenzie and her husband Kyle have lived on the sea. They travel around the world on a 45-year-old sailboat, hoping to stay away from the pressure of modern life and live freely.
The couple, now in their mid-thirties, began their journey eight years ago and never looked back. Recently, their unusual lifestyle became popular online after Leah shared photos of their trips. The pictures showed their sailboat in Canada, French Polynesia, Alaska, and islands in the South Pacific. She wrote, “Does this count as a wild home? My partner and our three pets have lived aboard this 45-year-old sailboat for eight years traveling full time around the world. The ocean is our backyard.”
Before setting sail, the couple had worked in Canada and they had never sailed. Leah said that sailing sounded like a dream for them. After that first sail with a small boat through the Gulf Islands, they were addicted at once. Soon, they upgraded to a larger boat called Jubel, and spent two years fixing, saving, and preparing for a life at sea. Over the years, they have sailed more than 30,000 nautical miles, crossed the Panama Canal twice, and spent a year exploring the South Pacific. Their next destinations include Papua New Guinea, Indonesia, and Japan.
Still, life at sea is not always easy. Leah admitted, “This lifestyle has the highest highs and the lowest lows.” She detailed some of harrowing experiences at sea, such as losing control of the boat during a storm with lightning flashing around them.
The couple has visited 23 countries and Leah says the cultural exchanges and remote(偏远的) destinations are meaningful. Although she admits to missing family and friends, Leah said the experiences have been worthwhile. “Yes, they are dangerous, but so is living in a city in some ways. We plan to keep doing this until it’s no longer fun,” she said.
1. Why does the couple travel around the world on a 45-year-old sailboat?
A. To lead a modern life. B. To save money for their family.
C. To find a safe place to live in. D. To enjoy a free lifestyle.
2. What do we know about the couple from paragraph 3?
A. They failed to explore the South Pacific.
B. They felt pleased with the first sail through the Gulf Islands.
C. They had rich sailing experience before sailing.
D. They have sailed to Indonesia twice so far.
3. What does the underlined word “harrowing” in paragraph 4 mean?
A. Comforting. B. Moving. C. Amazing. D. Frightening.
【答案】1. D 2. B 3. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了Leah Mackenzie和丈夫Kyle在海上生活了近八年,他们乘帆船环游世界,享受自由生活。
【1题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段中“They travel around the world on a 45-year-old sailboat, hoping to stay away from the pressure of modern life and live freely.(他们乘坐一艘有45年历史的帆船环游世界,希望远离现代生活的压力,自由地生活。)”可知,这对夫妇乘坐一艘有45年历史的帆船环游世界是为了享受自由的生活方式。故选D。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段中“After that first sail with a small boat through the Gulf Islands, they were addicted at once.(在第一次乘坐小船穿过海湾群岛后,他们立刻就上瘾了。)”可知,这对夫妇对第一次乘坐小船穿过海湾群岛后就立刻上瘾了,因此可推知他们对这次行程感到满意。故选B。
【3题详解】
词句猜测题。根据文章第四段中划线词后文的内容“such as losing control of the boat during a storm with lightning flashing around them.(比如在闪电环绕的风暴中失去对船的控制)”可知,在闪电环绕的风暴中失去对船的控制,这是他们在海上的可怕的经历,故此处划线词与D项“Frightening(令人害怕的,可怕的)”意思相近,这是他们在海上经历的可怕的事情。故选D。
B
Researchers have studied changes to mealtimes in older adults. They discovered people experience gradual shifts (改变) as they age, and these changes may show important information about their health.
Lead researcher Hassan Dashti explained that changes in when people eat, especially breakfast, can be a simple sign of overall health. He suggested that doctors and patients should use changes in mealtime routines as early warnings of hidden physical or mental problems. He also noted that keeping a regular (有规律的) eating schedule may support healthy aging and longer life.
To explore this idea, the team studied 2,945 adults in the UK, aged 42 to 94, who were followed for more than 20 years. They collected health data and blood samples (样本) to see how the mealtime might relate to health problems. They found that as older adults age, they tend to eat breakfast and dinner at later times, while also narrowing the overall time window in which they eat each day.
Later breakfast times were strongly related to health problems such as extreme sadness, low energy, poor sleep, and trouble preparing meals. People who ate later were also more likely to have oral health problems. Most importantly, later breakfast was connected with a higher risk of death. The researchers also found that people who were naturally “night owls” (preferring later sleep and wake times) tended to eat meals at later times.
“Up until now, we have had a limited (有限的) insight into how the mealtime develops later in life and how this change relates to overall health and longevity,” said Dashti. “Our findings help fill that gap by showing that later mealtimes, especially a later breakfast, are tied to both health challenges and increased death risk in older adults. These results add new meaning to the saying that ‘breakfast is the most important meal of the day’, especially for older adults.”
4. What did Dashti suggest about mealtime changes?
A. They usually have no clear reasons. B. They depend mainly on sleeping habits.
C. They can show signs of a person’s health. D. They are common among young people.
5. What did the researchers find about older adults?
A. They have more food each day. B. They miss breakfast more often.
C. They take longer time over meals. D. They eat meals later during the day.
6. What can be inferred about people who eat breakfast late?
A. They tend to live longer lives. B. They usually feel more energetic.
C. They are less likely to stay up. D. They may face certain health risks.
【答案】4. C 5. D 6. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。介绍了针对老年人用餐时间变化与健康关系的研究,揭示了用餐时间推迟与健康问题及死亡风险的关联。
4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Lead researcher Hassan Dashti explained that changes in when people eat, especially breakfast, can be a simple sign of overall health. He suggested that doctors and patients should use changes in mealtime routines as early warnings of hidden physical or mental problems. (首席研究员Hassan Dashti解释说,人们用餐时间的变化,尤其是早餐时间的变化,可能是整体健康状况的一个简单信号。他建议医生和患者应将用餐习惯的变化作为潜在身体或心理问题的早期预警)”可知,Dashti认为用餐时间的变化可以反映一个人的健康状况。故选C。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“They found that as older adults age, they tend to eat breakfast and dinner at later times, while also narrowing the overall time window in which they eat each day. (他们发现,随着老年人年龄增长,他们的早餐和晚餐时间往往会推迟,同时每天的用餐时间区间也会缩小)”可知,研究人员发现老年人会在一天中较晚的时间用餐。故选D。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“Later breakfast times were strongly related to health problems such as extreme sadness, low energy, poor sleep, and trouble preparing meals. People who ate later were also more likely to have oral health problems. Most importantly, later breakfast was connected with a higher risk of death. (早餐时间过晚与健康问题密切相关,如极度悲伤、精力不足、睡眠不足和做饭困难。吃得晚的人也更容易出现口腔健康问题。最重要的是,早餐吃得晚与更高的死亡风险有关)”可知,早餐吃得晚的人可能面临一定的健康风险。故选D。
C
Students who plan to use AI (人工智能) tools to write their college admission essays (文章) should think twice: Essays written by AI sound very similar to each other and lack personal voice, even when details (细节) like race or gender are included.
Researchers from the Cornell University compared 30,000 college application essays written by humans to ones written by eight AI tools. They discovered that AI essays were easy to tell from actual human writing because they used similar sentence patterns and repeated the same kinds of ideas.
“The admission essay is a chance for applicants to offer insights into who they are, beyond all the structured information on the application form,” said Rene Kizilcec, senior author of the new study. “AI tools can help students improve their writing and are likely a good idea for weak writers. But asking for a full article will result in something that just does not sound like any real applicant.”
The researchers explained that AI models cannot easily copy a person’s natural writing style. This makes them undependable for important writing tasks like college applications. When AI tools were asked to write from the view of a specific person, such as “an Asian woman from California”, the results sounded even less human. The essays often listed personal details in a flat and predictable way. Surprisingly, the team found that another AI program could easily tell the difference between human and AI-written essays. This means universities and colleges could likely find out essays written mainly by AI tools.
First author Jinsook Lee advises high school students to use their own ideas to brainstorm and write some simple essays, and, if allowed, use AI only to polish (润色) their essays. Applying to college can be stressful, but Lee remembers her own article-writing positively. “It was a great chance to look back on my life and my background,” she said. “I think it was the first experience for me to be really thoughtful.”
7. What is a problem about AI-written essays?
A. They are short of a personal touch. B. They are always off-topic.
C. They use many difficult words. D. They hardly describe an event in detail.
8. What does the paragraph 4 mainly tell us about the study?
A. Its use. B. Its findings. C. Its researchers. D. Its background.
9. What does Lee advise high school students to do?
A. Use AI tools to improve their writing. B. Turn to AI models for help anytime.
C. Depend on AI models to write essays. D. Avoid using AI tools for any writing.
10. Which is the most suitable title for the text?
A. Can AI Influence Students in College Writing?
B. Should Students Use AI Tools for College Essays?
C. Do Colleges Accept AI-based Application Essays?
D. Will AI Change How College Students Write Essays?
【答案】7. A 8. B 9. A 10. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要探讨了学生使用人工智能工具撰写大学申请论文存在的问题、相关研究发现,以及对高中生的建议。
【7题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“Essays written by AI sound very similar to each other and lack personal voice, even when details like race or gender are included. (由人工智能撰写的文章读起来彼此高度雷同,即便加入了种族、性别等细节信息,也缺乏个人独特的表达风格。)”可知,人工智能写的论文的问题是缺乏个人特色。故选A。
【8题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第四段“The researchers explained that AI models cannot easily copy a person’s natural writing style. This makes them undependable for important writing tasks like college applications. (研究人员解释说,人工智能模型无法轻易复制一个人的自然写作风格。这使得它们在像大学申请这样的重要写作任务中并不可靠。)”以及“Surprisingly, the team found that another AI program could easily tell the difference between human and AI-written essays. (令人惊讶的是,该团队发现另一个人工智能程序可以轻易区分人类撰写和人工智能撰写的论文。)”可知,这些都是研究的发现。故选B。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“First author Jinsook Lee advises high school students to use their own ideas to brainstorm and write some simple essays, and, if allowed, use AI only to polish their essays. (第一作者Jinsook Lee建议先用自己的想法进行头脑风暴、撰写简单的文章,且在允许的情况下,仅将人工智能用作文章的润色工具。)”可知,Lee建议学生利用人工智能来提升写作。故选A。
【10题详解】
主旨大意题。文章开篇“Students who plan to use AI tools to write their college admission essays should think twice (计划使用人工智能工具撰写大学申请文书的学生应当三思而后行)”提出学生使用AI写大学申请论文需慎重的观点,后续围绕AI写的论文的缺陷、研究发现以及专家建议展开,核心是探讨学生是否应该使用AI工具写大学论文。故选B。

【解析】
【导语】本文为一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了新年的信息和大家迎接新年的准备活动。
【详解】根据每句的句意“A. Little New Year, observed on the 23rd and 24th days of the twelfth lunar month in northern and southern China, is also known as the Kitchen God Festival. Families honor the Kitchen God, believed to protect the household. They clean their homes to sweep away bad luck and prepare for a fresh start.( A. 小年,在中国北方和南方分别于农历腊月二十三和二十四庆祝,也被称为灶神节。家家户户祭拜灶神,人们相信灶神能保佑家庭。他们会打扫房屋以驱除厄运,为新的开始做准备。)”、“B. On New Year’s Day, the focus changes from family gatherings to greetings with relatives, neighbors and friends. A common custom is giving red envelopes with cash inside, usually from older to younger generations, as a symbol of good fortune.( B. 到了大年初一,焦点从家庭团聚转向走亲访友。常见的习俗是发红包,通常由长辈给晚辈,象征着好运。)”、“C. In China, the Spring Festival marks the new year. It falls on the first day of the first month of the Chinese lunar calendar. While the year technically begins at midnight, celebrations start a week earlier with the Little New Year. The celebration stretch (延伸)to the Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day, marking the end of the celebrations.(C. 在中国,春节标志着新年的开始。春节是农历正月初一。虽然新年严格来说是从午夜开始,但庆祝活动提前一周从小年就开始了。庆祝活动一直延续到正月十五的元宵节,标志着庆祝活动的结束。)”、“D. From the first to the tenth day, relatives visit one another, while temple fairs, Shehuo (folk performances), and lantern shows bring communities together. People exchange greetings and enjoy lively celebrations until the Lantern Festival, the first full-moon day of the year, which marks the conclusion(结尾) of the festive period.(D. 从初一到初十,亲戚们互相拜访,而庙会、社火(民间表演)和灯会等活动让社区聚在一起。人们互致问候,享受热闹的庆祝活动,直到元宵节——新年的第一个满月日,这也是节日期的结束。)”、“E. After a week of preparations, New Year’s Eve arrives, filled with longing for reunions. At midnight, the old year is symbolically(象征性地) thrown away with firecrackers, a tradition dating back to scaring off the beast “Nian”.(E. 经过一周的准备,充满团圆期盼的除夕到来了。午夜时分,人们用鞭炮象征性地辞旧岁,这个传统可以追溯到驱赶"年"兽的传说。)”可知,C是总起段,介绍了春节的基本信息,包括时间、庆祝周期(从小年到元宵节),为后续段落提供背景;紧接着A项介绍小年的习俗,这是春节庆祝活动的开始,与C段衔接自然;E项描述除夕的活动,是小年之后的重要节点,时间顺序上紧随其后;B项转到新年第一天的习俗,如发红包,是除夕之后的庆祝活动;最后D项总结初一到元宵节期间的庆祝活动,并以元宵节作为春节的结束,与C段首尾呼应。故为:C总述春节→A介绍小年(起始)→E除夕(辞旧迎新)→B初一(拜年)→D后续庆祝至元宵节(收尾)。故顺序为:CAEBD。

Four Beginner Running Mistakes
Running too fast. This means you treat every run like a race to keep up with or go faster than your pace (步速) in your last run. It can lead to overuse injuries. ___12___, especially when you’re first starting out. A conversational pace means that your running pace is no faster than a quick walk, but that’s totally fine.
Running at an unchanging pace. ___13___. It could be that none of your runs are particularly fast or slow. They just all feel the same. Training should include a mix of intensities (强度): easy runs, tempo runs, intervals and long runs. The easiest way to do all of those is to follow a training plan designed for your goal.
Ignoring (忽视) strength training. We often don’t think about strength training until we’re faced with an injury or stop making progress with running. ___14___. When it comes to time, strength work doesn’t have to be done separately in the gym. You also don’t need to be a fitness expert or throw big weights around.
___15___. Everyone has a unique starting point when it comes to running. Making a comparison with others can lead to unrealistic expectations or disappointment. Running is a personal journey and what works for someone else might not work for you. Remember to track and celebrate your own progress whether it’s a faster pace or feeling stronger during a run. ___16___. By keeping the focus on yourself, you’ll create a running habit that works for you.
A. Comparing yourself to others
B. Expecting every run to be great
C. Running success comes from sticking to it
D. You always feel that you only have one pace when running
E. The things that often prevent this are time and expert skills
F. You will get bored when you always run on the same course
G. So use an easy pace where you can comfortably hold a conversation
【答案】12 G 13. D 14. E 15. A 16. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了新手跑步的四大常见误区及对应的注意事项与建议。
【12题详解】
上文“Running too fast. This means you treat every run like a race to keep up with or go faster than your pace (步速) in your last run. It can lead to overuse injuries.(跑得过快。这意味着你把每次跑步都当成一场比赛,力求跟上或超越上一次的步速。这种做法可能导致过度使用损伤。)”指出跑太快会导致过度使用损伤;而空后“especially when you’re first starting out.(尤其是刚开始跑步时)”则解释了对话式步速的定义。选项G“So use an easy pace where you can comfortably hold a conversation (因此,应采用轻松的步速,让你能舒适地与人交谈)”既给出了具体的解决方案,其中“hold a conversation”与后文“conversational pace”直接呼应,逻辑衔接紧密,完美衔接上下文。故选G。
【13题详解】
根据段首句“Running at an unchanging pace.(跑速一成不变。)”可知,本段主题是跑速不变;选项D“You always feel that you only have one pace when running(你跑步时总觉得自己只有一种步速)”精准概括了“unchanging pace”的含义,与后文“It could be that none of your runs are particularly fast or slow. They just all feel the same. (可能每次跑既不算特别快,也不算特别慢,只是感觉千篇一律。)”中的“all feel the same”语义完全契合,是对主题句的具体阐释,逻辑连贯。故选D。
【14题详解】
上文“We often don’t think about strength training until we’ re faced with an injury or stop making progress with running.(我们往往直到遭遇伤病,或是跑步进度停滞不前时,才会想到力量训练。)”提到人们常忽视力量训练;选项E“The things that often prevent this are time and expert skills (通常阻碍人们进行力量训练的是时间和专业技能。)”延续上文内容,指出了人们忽视力量训练是因为时间和专业技能。故选E。
【15题详解】
空处为段首句,为本段主要内容。根据下文“Everyone has a unique starting point when it comes to running. Making a comparison with others can lead to unrealistic expectations or disappointment. Running is a personal journey and what works for someone else might not work for you.(每个人的跑步起点都是独一无二的。与他人比较可能会产生不切实际的期待,或是导致失望情绪。跑步是一场个人旅程,适合别人的方法未必适合你。)”可知,本段主要讲述了每个人的跑步起点不同,与他人比较会导致不切实际的期待或失望。选项A“Comparing yourself to others (与他人比较。)”与下文内容一致,符合题意。故选A。
【16题详解】
上文“Remember to track and celebrate your own progress whether it’s a faster pace or feeling stronger during a run.(记住要追踪并庆祝自己的进步——无论是步速提升,还是跑步时感觉更有力。)”建议关注并庆祝自己的进步。选项C“Running success comes from sticking to it (跑步的成功源于坚持)”承接上文内容,指出成功源自于坚持。故选C。

A
For almost eight years, Leah Mackenzie and her husband Kyle have lived on the sea. They travel around the world on a 45-year-old sailboat, hoping to stay away from the pressure of modern life and live freely.
The couple, now in their mid-thirties, began their journey eight years ago and never looked back. Recently, their unusual lifestyle became popular online after Leah shared photos of their trips. The pictures showed their sailboat in Canada, French Polynesia, Alaska, and islands in the South Pacific. She wrote, “Does this count as a wild home? My partner and our three pets have lived aboard this 45-year-old sailboat for eight years traveling full time around the world. The ocean is our backyard.”
Before setting sail, the couple had worked in Canada and they had never sailed. Leah said that sailing sounded like a dream for them. After that first sail with a small boat through the Gulf Islands, they were addicted at once. Soon, they upgraded to a larger boat called Jubel, and spent two years fixing, saving, and preparing for a life at sea. Over the years, they have sailed more than 30,000 nautical miles, crossed the Panama Canal twice, and spent a year exploring the South Pacific. Their next destinations include Papua New Guinea, Indonesia, and Japan.
Still, life at sea is not always easy. Leah admitted, “This lifestyle has the highest highs and the lowest lows.” She detailed some of harrowing experiences at sea, such as losing control of the boat during a storm with lightning flashing around them.
The couple has visited 23 countries and Leah says the cultural exchanges and remote(偏远的) destinations are meaningful. Although she admits to missing family and friends, Leah said the experiences have been worthwhile. “Yes, they are dangerous, but so is living in a city in some ways. We plan to keep doing this until it’s no longer fun,” she said.
1. Why does the couple travel around the world on a 45-year-old sailboat?
A. To lead a modern life. B. To save money for their family.
C. To find a safe place to live in. D. To enjoy a free lifestyle.
2. What do we know about the couple from paragraph 3?
A. They failed to explore the South Pacific.
B. They felt pleased with the first sail through the Gulf Islands.
C. They had rich sailing experience before sailing.
D. They have sailed to Indonesia twice so far.
3. What does the underlined word “harrowing” in paragraph 4 mean?
A. Comforting. B. Moving. C. Amazing. D. Frightening.
B
Researchers have studied changes to mealtimes in older adults. They discovered people experience gradual shifts (改变) as they age, and these changes may show important information about their health.
Lead researcher Hassan Dashti explained that changes in when people eat, especially breakfast, can be a simple sign of overall health. He suggested that doctors and patients should use changes in mealtime routines as early warnings of hidden physical or mental problems. He also noted that keeping a regular (有规律的) eating schedule may support healthy aging and longer life.
To explore this idea, the team studied 2,945 adults in the UK, aged 42 to 94, who were followed for more than 20 years. They collected health data and blood samples (样本) to see how the mealtime might relate to health problems. They found that as older adults age, they tend to eat breakfast and dinner at later times, while also narrowing the overall time window in which they eat each day.
Later breakfast times were strongly related to health problems such as extreme sadness, low energy, poor sleep, and trouble preparing meals. People who ate later were also more likely to have oral health problems. Most importantly, later breakfast was connected with a higher risk of death. The researchers also found that people who were naturally “night owls” (preferring later sleep and wake times) tended to eat meals at later times.
“Up until now, we have had a limited (有限的) insight into how the mealtime develops later in life and how this change relates to overall health and longevity,” said Dashti. “Our findings help fill that gap by showing that later mealtimes, especially a later breakfast, are tied to both health challenges and increased death risk in older adults. These results add new meaning to the saying that ‘breakfast is the most important meal of the day’, especially for older adults.”
4 What did Dashti suggest about mealtime changes?
A. They usually have no clear reasons. B. They depend mainly on sleeping habits.
C. They can show signs of a person’s health. D. They are common among young people.
5. What did the researchers find about older adults?
A. They have more food each day. B. They miss breakfast more often.
C. They take longer time over meals. D. They eat meals later during the day.
6. What can be inferred about people who eat breakfast late?
A. They tend to live longer lives. B. They usually feel more energetic.
C. They are less likely to stay up. D. They may face certain health risks.
C
Students who plan to use AI (人工智能) tools to write their college admission essays (文章) should think twice: Essays written by AI sound very similar to each other and lack personal voice, even when details (细节) like race or gender are included.
Researchers from the Cornell University compared 30,000 college application essays written by humans to ones written by eight AI tools. They discovered that AI essays were easy to tell from actual human writing because they used similar sentence patterns and repeated the same kinds of ideas.
“The admission essay is a chance for applicants to offer insights into who they are, beyond all the structured information on the application form,” said Rene Kizilcec, senior author of the new study. “AI tools can help students improve their writing and are likely a good idea for weak writers. But asking for a full article will result in something that just does not sound like any real applicant.”
The researchers explained that AI models cannot easily copy a person’s natural writing style. This makes them undependable for important writing tasks like college applications. When AI tools were asked to write from the view of a specific person, such as “an Asian woman from California”, the results sounded even less human. The essays often listed personal details in a flat and predictable way. Surprisingly, the team found that another AI program could easily tell the difference between human and AI-written essays. This means universities and colleges could likely find out essays written mainly by AI tools.
First author Jinsook Lee advises high school students to use their own ideas to brainstorm and write some simple essays, and, if allowed, use AI only to polish (润色) their essays. Applying to college can be stressful, but Lee remembers her own article-writing positively. “It was a great chance to look back on my life and my background,” she said. “I think it was the first experience for me to be really thoughtful.”
7. What is a problem about AI-written essays?
A. They are short of a personal touch. B. They are always off-topic.
C. They use many difficult words. D. They hardly describe an event in detail.
8. What does the paragraph 4 mainly tell us about the study?
A. Its use. B. Its findings. C. Its researchers. D. Its background.
9. What does Lee advise high school students to do?
A. Use AI tools to improve their writing. B. Turn to AI models for help anytime.
C. Depend on AI models to write essays. D. Avoid using AI tools for any writing.
10. Which is the most suitable title for the text?
A. Can AI Influence Students in College Writing?
B. Should Students Use AI Tools for College Essays?
C. Do Colleges Accept AI-based Application Essays?
D. Will AI Change How College Students Write Essays?
