A new study suggests that a person’s name may influence how they look when they grow up. In the study, researchers showed people photos of different faces and asked them to choose the most matching (相配的) names. People in the study could correctly match the names to the adult faces quite well. However, they found it much harder to match names to children’s faces. This suggests that as people grow older, their looks might slowly change to fit their name. The researchers also used a computer program to compare faces. It found that adults with the same name look more similar to each other than adults with different names. But this was not true for children. ▲ The researchers think it might be because many people have the same ideas about names. For example, people might think someone named “Bob” should have a rounder and happier face. Without realizing it, a person named Bob might smile more often or choose a certain hairstyle, making his face look rounder and friendlier over time. This way, he slowly grows to look like his name. The study shows that our names might play a small but interesting part in shaping who we are even in how we look. 6 What did people find difficult to do in the study? A. To choose the right name for adults. B. To match names to children’s faces. C. To take photos of different faces. D. To give names to children. 7. What can we infer (推断) about adults from the study? A. They change their names more often. B. They don’t care about their names. C. Their faces match their names better. D. Computers can’t recognize their faces. 8. Which of the following can be put in ________ in Paragraph 4? A. Why does this happen? B. What is the final result? C. How do computers help? D. When did the study begin? 9. What does Bob probably look like? A. B. C. D. 10. Which is the best title for this passage? A. How to Choose a Good Name? B. Why Do Children Look Different? C. Do Computers Know Our Faces? D. Can Names Change Our Looks? 【答案】6. B 7. C 8. A 9. B 10. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，这篇研究表明，人的名字可能会影响其长大后的外貌，成年人的长相会逐渐与名字更匹配，而孩子则不明显，这是因为人们对名字有固定印象，会不自觉地调整自身状态来契合名字。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据“However, they found it much harder to match names to children’s faces.”可知，人们在研究中觉得把名字和孩子的脸匹配起来很困难。故选B。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据“People in the study could correctly match the names to the adult faces quite well.”以及“adults with the same name look more similar to each other than adults with different names”可推断，成年人的脸和他们的名字更匹配。故选C。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据“The researchers think it might be because many people have the same ideas about names.”可知，此段是在解释这种现象的原因，所以空处应填“Why does this happen?”。故选A。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据“people might think someone named ‘Bob’ should have a rounder and happier face”可知，Bob可能长着更圆、更开心的脸。结合选项中的图片，B选项是开心的圆脸形象。故选B。 【10题详解】 最佳标题题。根据“A new study suggests that a person’s name may influence how they look when they grow up.”以及全文内容可知，文章围绕“名字是否会改变人的外貌”展开。故选D。 C Have you ever noticed that when you wait in line at the supermarket, other lines always seem to move faster than yours? Now, a survey by The New York Times looks into the math and psychology (心理学) of waiting in line. It also gives ideas on finding the fastest line. ● Choose someone with many things Expert Dan Meyer believes that seeing a shopper with many things doesn’t always mean a long wait. “Each person takes about 41 seconds to say hello, pay, and leave. But each thing they buy only takes 3 seconds. This means if there are five people in front of you, and each person has 10 things, the waiting time will be 355 seconds. But if there is only one person in front of you, with 50 things, the waiting time is 191 seconds. You can see which is faster. ● Study the customers Notice who is in line. Older customers may move slower. The things they buy are also important. For example, four bottles of the same milk will go faster than four different things. ● Go left According to US science writer Robert Samuel, around 90% of people are right-handed. That means they will naturally choose lines on the right. So heading to the left will give you a better chance of finding a faster line. So next time, remember these ideas. They can help you wait less and get you through the line faster. 11. How does the writer start the passage? A. By telling a story. B. By listing numbers. C. By asking a question. D. By giving an answer. 12. How long is the wait for someone with 40 things? A. 41 seconds. B. 161 seconds. C. 191 seconds. D. 355 seconds. 13. Which lines may move faster? a. A line with 10 old people. b. A line with 10 young people. c. A person with different things. d. A person with the same things. A. ac B. ad C. bc D. bd 14. What is Robert Samuel’s advice on choosing a faster line? A. Studying the customers. B. Choosing lines on the left. C. Following someone with many things. D. Studying the things in the supermarket. 15. What does the story mainly talk about? A. How to find a faster line when you wait. B. The best time to go to the supermarket. C. How to be good workers in supermarkets. D. Why people feel unhappy when waiting. 【答案】11. C 12. B 13. D 14. B 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，通过分析排队的数学和心理学知识，给出了选择超市更快队伍的建议：可优先选前面是买多件物品的人、观察顾客、选左边队伍。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Have you ever noticed that when you wait in line at the supermarket, other lines always seem to move faster than yours?”可知，作者是通过提出一个问题来开启这篇文章的。故选C。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Each person takes about 41 seconds to say hello, pay, and leave. But each thing they buy only takes 3 seconds.”可知，计算方式为“41 + 40×3 = 161秒”，所以买40件东西的人的等待时间是161秒。故选B。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Older customers may move slower”可知年轻人排队的队伍更快（对应b）；根据“four bottles of the same milk will go faster than four different things”可知买相同物品的人的队伍更快（对应d）。故选D。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据“According to US science writer Robert Samuel...So heading to the left will give you a better chance of finding a faster line.”可知，Robert Samuel的建议是选择左边的队伍。故选B。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据“It also gives ideas on finding the fastest line”及全文内容可知，文章主要讲的是在排队等待时如何找到更快的队伍。故选A。 D A recent study shows that grey squirrels are making life harder for red squirrels in the UK. But now, a group of scientists has made a new way to help the red squirrels. They are trying it out in several forests. Red squirrels have lived in the UK for about 10,000 years. But today, only around 160,000 are left. They used to live in many forests all over the country. Now, they mostly live in northern England and Scotland. On the other hand, there are 2.7 million grey squirrels in the UK. People brought these grey squirrels from North America in 1876. Grey squirrels are bigger than red squirrels. They are better at finding food and taking over places to live. They also carry a disease called squirrelpox. This disease does not hurt grey squirrels, but it is very dangerous to red squirrels. To help grow the number of red squirrels, scientists built a special tool named Squirrel Agent. It uses artificial intelligence (AI). The tool can distinguish between red and grey squirrels. Its job is to give more food to red squirrels and stop the number of grey squirrels from growing. The tool helps red squirrels get to special feeding boxes. They can eat safely there. For grey squirrels, it gives a different kind of food. The food stops them from having babies. This new AI tool gives hope for the future of red squirrels. Scientists believe they can help these special animals. Maybe one day, red squirrels will live in all UK forests again. 16. Where do most red squirrels live now? A. A B. B C. C D. D 17. Which of the following is TRUE about grey squirrels? A. They came from North America. B. They are smaller than red squirrels. C. Squirrelpox makes them very sick. D. They help red squirrels to find food. 18. What does the underlined word “distinguish” mean in Paragraph 4? A. To look after. B. To tell the difference. C. To give food. D. To put them together. 19. What is the main idea of the passage? A. The habits of red squirrels. B. AI helps grey squirrels grow. C. Studies of grey squirrels. D. AI helps protect red squirrels. 20. What’s the writer’s attitude(态度) towards the AI tool in the passage? A. Hopeful. B. Excited. C. Unsure. D. Worried. 【答案】16. C 17. A 18. B 19. D 20. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了英国灰松鼠威胁红松鼠生存的现状，以及科学家利用人工智能工具“Squirrel Agent”帮助保护红松鼠的举措。 【16题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Now, they mostly live in northern England and Scotland.”可知，红松鼠现在主要生活在英格兰北部和苏格兰。对应地图中的C点。故选C。 【17题详解】 细节理解题。根据“People brought these grey squirrels from North America in 1876.”可知，灰松鼠是从北美引进的。故选A。 【18题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“The tool can distinguish between red and grey squirrels. Its job is to give more food to red squirrels and stop the number of grey squirrels from growing.”可知，这个工具需要区分红松鼠和灰松鼠，从而采取不同措施。因此“distinguish”意为“区分、辨别”。故选B。 【19题详解】 主旨大意题。根据“To help grow the number of red squirrels, scientists built a special tool named Squirrel Agent. It uses artificial intelligence (AI).”及全文内容可知，文章主要介绍了人工智能工具帮助保护红松鼠的事情。故选D。 【20题详解】 观点态度题。根据“This new AI tool gives hope for the future of red squirrels.”可知，作者认为这个AI工具给红松鼠的未来带来了希望，态度是充满希望的。故选A。 二、阅读判断 (本大题共5小题，每小题2分，共10分) 阅读短文，判断事实(Fact) 和观点(Opinion)，选出最佳答案，并将答题卡上对应题目所选的选项涂黑。 In the UK, tap water is very clean and safe to drink. But many people still buy bottled water. Every year, people drink much bottled water. Most water bottles are made of plastic and used only once. Although some bottles can be used again, many are thrown away. These plastic bottles can take hundreds of years to break down and pollute the world around us. Some people want stores to stop selling bottled water. They say it’s not needed because tap water is good and almost free. They think people should use reusable water bottles. People can use these bottles many times. This good habit will help keep the world clean and save money too. Also, it will help protect animals and nature. Others don’t agree. They say bottled water is important for people who are traveling or who forget their water bottles. On hot days, people need to drink more water. So, finding water becomes very important. It’s not easy to find places to fill water bottles when you’re away from home. Without bottled water, some people might drink sugary drinks that are less healthy.

Sam Edmunds recently decided to raise money by having his hair cut very short. The 15-year-old boy from London spent four years growing his hair, so there was a lot to cut off. The last time he cut his hair was in 2021. He collected £3,200 for a local food bank (where people in need can get food and help). He tells The Week Junior: “I always wanted to do it again.” This time, Sam is supporting the Alzheimer’s Society charity. Alzheimer’s is a kind of disease that can influence a person’s memory, thoughts, and the way they act. It usually happens to older people and gets worse over time. This is important to Sam because his friend died of Alzheimer’s in 2023. Also, in February 2024, a famous football player named Stan Bowles died of the same disease. Sam is a big fan of him, so he called his activity “Bald for Bowles”. So far, an online page has helped raise more than £4,000 for the Alzheimer’s Society. Sam also gave his hair to the Little Princess Trust. This group gives wigs to young people who have lost their hair because of a serious disease. Sam is already thinking about his next haircut for charity, but he needs to wait for his hair to grow back. “Maybe in another three or four years, I’ll do it again,” he says. Check if the sentence is True or False. 26. Sam first cut his hair for charity at the age of 9. A. True B. False 27. Sam first cut his hair to help a local food bank. A. True B. False 28. Sam has got Alzheimer's disease. A. True B. False 29. Sam cut his hair the second time to remember his friend and Stan Bowles. A. True B. False 30 Sam expects to cut his hair again. A. True B.

Sam Edmunds recently decided to raise money by having his hair cut very short. The 15-year-old boy from London spent four years growing his hair, so there was a lot to cut off. The last time he cut his hair was in 2021. He collected £3,200 for a local food bank (where people in need can get food and help). He tells The Week Junior: “I always wanted to do it again.” This time, Sam is supporting the Alzheimer’s Society charity. Alzheimer’s is a kind of disease that can influence a person’s memory, thoughts, and the way they act. It usually happens to older people and gets worse over time. This is important to Sam because his friend died of Alzheimer’s in 2023. Also, in February 2024, a famous football player named Stan Bowles died of the same disease. Sam is a big fan of him, so he called his activity “Bald for Bowles”. So far, an online page has helped raise more than £4,000 for the Alzheimer’s Society. Sam also gave his hair to the Little Princess Trust. This group gives wigs to young people who have lost their hair because of a serious disease. Sam is already thinking about his next haircut for charity, but he needs to wait for his hair to grow back. “Maybe in another three or four years, I’ll do it again,” he says.
