Edna, who lives in Canada, has become famous for the fitness level she maintains at age 91. The mom of five, grandmother of twenty-one and great-grandmother of four still drives now. “I’ve always had a busy lifestyle because, let’s face it, with that many children, you have to be busy,” Edna said. “So, I never really thought about it. That’s just the way I live.” She said she only really began to focus on her fitness in her sixties, when she was forced to retire from her job at a local hospital. She had to face the fact that she was 60.
To keep herself busy, Edna began gardening again that she had to give up because of her busy work. She said she also started going to the gym in her 60s, which she still does every other day. “I have to keep my feet to the fire because it’s cold in the morning in winter, and when it’s snowy or icy out there, I don’t really feel like going outside,” she said. “But I make myself do it and mark it on the calendar. So I cannot take any shortcuts.”
Edna said she focused on walking at the gym for her heart health and also included lots of weight lifting in her schedule to keep her bone strength. “When in the gym, I don’t try to break any records or compete with anyone else,” Edna said. “I only push myself to do better all the time, and I only compete with myself.”
When it came to her age, Edna said the people at the gym didn’t realize she’s 91. She prefers it that way, because when people do realize she’s in her 90s, they’ll surely demand to help her. “I know them well. But I don’t really want help,” said Edna. “It’s funny to say that, but I like to be independent.”
6. What made Edna leave her job in the hospital?
A. Looking after so many kids. B. Being the age of sixty.
C Suffering from a heart problem. D. Wishing to live a busy life.
7. What do we know about Edna in her sixties?
A. She manages to be a regular at the gym. B. She lives in a cold place all year round.
C. She develops a new hobby for gardening. D. She likes to take shortcuts in her daily life.
8. What is the primary cause of Edna’s going to the gym?
A. To set personal fitness records B. To compete with other gym-goers.
C. To become the best in the gym. D. To improve her health and strength.
9. Which of the following best describes Edna?
A. Cautious and Caring. B. Humorous and demanding.
C. Competitive and busy. D. Independent and determined.
10. What can we learn from Edna’s story?
A Fitness is fit for every age. B. Experience beats youth.
C. The elderly can be fashionable. D. Age decides fitness level.
C
Surfing through videos on TikTok or YouTube can be a matter of chance as there are nice ones among many ordinary ones. But researchers have found that switching (转换) to another video, or skipping forwards and backwards in the same one, actually makes people more bored.
Dr Katy Tam at the University of Toronto Scarborough, the lead author of the research, said boredom was closely related to attention. “We feel bored when there’s a gap between how engaged we are and how engaged (投入的,专心的) we want to be,” she said. “When people keep switching through videos, they become less engaged with the videos and they are looking for something more interesting. This can lead to increased feelings of boredom.”
The results appear to chime with other studies: as the team notes, previous research has suggested that while boredom relief is a driver for people to use social media or smartphones, the use of such technology appears to make the feeling worse.
Writing in the Journal of Experimental Psychology: General, Tam and colleagues report how they carried out seven experiments involving a total of more than 1,200 participants.
The first, involving 140 participants, showed that people tended to switch between videos more when they rated the content more boring, while the second -an online survey involving 231 participants — suggested people thought having the option to skip through a video or switch to another would make viewing a video less boring.
However, the team’s following experiments suggest this is not the case. Data from a group of 166 undergraduates suggests participants felt more bored when allowed to skip about within a video than when they were not able to, while results from 159 undergraduates showed they reported higher levels of boredom when given a collection of five-minute videos they could switch between, compared with a single 10-minute video.
“Our research shows that while people fast-forward or skip videos to avoid boredom, this behaviour can actually make them feel more bored,” Dr. Katy Tam said. “Just as we pay for an immersive (沉浸式的) experience in a movie theatre, enjoyment often comes from immersing ourselves in videos rather than changing from one video to another.”
11. Why do people feel more bored when switching through videos?
A. Because they are impatient. B. Because they become less attentive.
C. Because there are few choices of videos. D. Because there are many ordinary videos.
12. What does the underlined phrase “chime with” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Agree with B. Argue against C. Differ from D. Lead to.
13. Which research method is not used in the experiments?
A. Making comparison. B. Doing surveys. C. Doing field research. D. Collecting data.
14. What can be inferred according to Dr. Katy Tam in the last paragraph?
A. Boredom is unrelated to attention. B. People should focus on videos to enjoy better.
C. Enjoyment usually comes from switching videos D. Immersive experience in a movie theatre is boring.
15. Where is the text probably taken from?
A. A nature article B. A music website. C. A science fiction. D. A science magazine.

When I was a pupil, I studied at a girls’ school. At that time, in order to get us to know each other as soon as possible, our teacher made all the girls in the class sit next to someone different every week.
One day, the teacher asked Shirley, with whom I had never talked, to sit beside me. I wanted to get along well with her, but she was always shy and quiet. Shirley had long, straight brown hair that she often pushed behind her ears. She wore simple, faded dresses that were clearly second-hand.
On one of those days, I noticed that Shirley was very upset. I asked her what was wrong. She kept silent for a long time. Finally, she told me that she came from a big family and she had several brothers and sisters. Her father was a hardworking but low-paid laborer and couldn’t afford school books for all of the children. Seeing her pain, I couldn’t help but say suddenly, “My parents can buy books for all of you.” But she refused, her face turning red with embarrassment.
When I came back home, I told my mom the story. Mom said that it was good that I had tried to help, but I should stop worrying about it because there was nothing more that I could do if she had refused my offer to help. A moment later, she recommended that I help Shirley in a way that Shirley might accept.
That night, I rolled back and forth in bed, thinking what I should do.
注意:
1.续写词数应90左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Suddenly, an idea came to me.

Edna, who lives in Canada, has become famous for the fitness level she maintains at age 91. The mom of five, grandmother of twenty-one and great-grandmother of four still drives now. “I’ve always had a busy lifestyle because, let’s face it, with that many children, you have to be busy,” Edna said. “So, I never really thought about it. That’s just the way I live.” She said she only really began to focus on her fitness in her sixties, when she was forced to retire from her job at a local hospital. She had to face the fact that she was 60.
To keep herself busy, Edna began gardening again that she had to give up because of her busy work. She said she also started going to the gym in her 60s, which she still does every other day. “I have to keep my feet to the fire because it’s cold in the morning in winter, and when it’s snowy or icy out there, I don’t really feel like going outside,” she said. “But I make myself do it and mark it on the calendar. So I cannot take any shortcuts.”
Edna said she focused on walking at the gym for her heart health and also included lots of weight lifting in her schedule to keep her bone strength. “When in the gym, I don’t try to break any records or compete with anyone else,” Edna said. “I only push myself to do better all the time, and I only compete with myself.”
When it came to her age, Edna said the people at the gym didn’t realize she’s 91. She prefers it that way, because when people do realize she’s in her 90s, they’ll surely demand to help her. “I know them well. But I don’t really want help,” said Edna. “It’s funny to say that, but I like to be independent.”
6. What made Edna leave her job in the hospital?
A. Looking after so many kids. B. Being the age of sixty.
C. Suffering from a heart problem. D. Wishing to live a busy life.
7. What do we know about Edna in her sixties?
A. She manages to be a regular at the gym. B. She lives in a cold place all year round.
C. She develops a new hobby for gardening. D. She likes to take shortcuts in her daily life.
8. What is the primary cause of Edna’s going to the gym?
A. To set personal fitness records B. To compete with other gym-goers.
C. To become the best in the gym. D. To improve her health and strength.
9. Which of the following best describes Edna?

C. Competitive and busy. D. Independent and determined.
10. What can we learn from Edna’s story?

Surfing through videos on TikTok or YouTube can be a matter of chance as there are nice ones among many ordinary ones. But researchers have found that switching (转换) to another video, or skipping forwards and backwards in the same one, actually makes people more bored.
Dr Katy Tam at the University of Toronto Scarborough, the lead author of the research, said boredom was closely related to attention. “We feel bored when there’s a gap between how engaged we are and how engaged (投入的,专心的) we want to be,” she said. “When people keep switching through videos, they become less engaged with the videos and they are looking for something more interesting. This can lead to increased feelings of boredom.”
The results appear to chime with other studies: as the team notes, previous research has suggested that while boredom relief is a driver for people to use social media or smartphones, the use of such technology appears to make the feeling worse.
Writing in the Journal of Experimental Psychology: General, Tam and colleagues report how they carried out seven experiments involving a total of more than 1,200 participants.
The first, involving 140 participants, showed that people tended to switch between videos more when they rated the content more boring, while the second -an online survey involving 231 participants — suggested people thought having the option to skip through a video or switch to another would make viewing a video less boring.
However, the team’s following experiments suggest this is not the case. Data from a group of 166 undergraduates suggests participants felt more bored when allowed to skip about within a video than when they were not able to, while results from 159 undergraduates showed they reported higher levels of boredom when given a collection of five-minute videos they could switch between, compared with a single 10-minute video.
“Our research shows that while people fast-forward or skip videos to avoid boredom, this behaviour can actually make them feel more bored,” Dr. Katy Tam said. “Just as we pay for an immersive (沉浸式的) experience in a movie theatre, enjoyment often comes from immersing ourselves in videos rather than changing from one video to another.”
11. Why do people feel more bored when switching through videos?
A. Because they are impatient. B. Because they become less attentive.
C. Because there are few choices of videos. D. Because there are many ordinary videos.
12. What does the underlined phrase “chime with” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Agree with B. Argue against C. Differ from D. Lead to.
13. Which research method is not used in the experiments?
A. Making comparison. B. Doing surveys. C. Doing field research. D. Collecting data.
14. What can be inferred according to Dr. Katy Tam in the last paragraph?
A. Boredom is unrelated to attention. B. People should focus on videos to enjoy better.
C. Enjoyment usually comes from switching videos D. Immersive experience in a movie theatre is boring.
15. Where is the text probably taken from?
A. A nature article B. A music website. C. A science fiction. D. A science magazine.
【答案】11. B 12. A 13. C 14. B 15. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了研究人员通过实验发现,刷视频时频繁切换或快进快退的行为不仅无法缓解无聊,反而会加剧这种感受的相关结论。
【11题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段““We feel bored when there’s a gap between how engaged we are and how engaged (投入的,专心的) we want to be,” she said. “When people keep switching through videos, they become less engaged with the videos and they are looking for something more interesting. This can lead to increased feelings of boredom.” (“当我们实际投入的专注度,和自己期望达到的专注度之间存在落差时,就会感到无聊。”她解释道,“人们不断切换视频时,对视频内容的投入度会越来越低,同时又在渴望更有趣的东西,这反而会加剧无聊感。”)”可知,人们频繁切换视频时,对视频的投入度会降低,也就是注意力变得不集中,进而加剧无聊感。故选B。
【12题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词组所在语境“The results appear to chime with other studies: as the team notes, previous research has suggested that while boredom relief is a driver for people to use social media or smartphones, the use of such technology appears to make the feeling worse. (这项研究的结果与其他相关研究的结论……。研究团队指出,此前已有研究表明:尽管人们使用社交媒体或智能手机的初衷是排解无聊,但这类科技产品的使用,似乎会让无聊感愈演愈烈。)”可知,冒号后内容是对前半句的解释,该研究结论和其他研究的观点一致。由此推断“chime with”的意思是“与……相符、一致”。选项A“agree with”意为“与……一致”,与此相符。故选A。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第四段“Writing in the Journal of Experimental Psychology: General, Tam and colleagues report how they carried out seven experiments involving a total of more than 1,200 participants. (Tam与同事在《实验心理学杂志:综合版》上发表文章,介绍了他们所开展的七项实验的情况,这些实验共涉及超过1200名参与者。)”、第五段“The first, involving 140 participants, showed that people tended to switch between videos more when they rated the content more boring, while the second -an online survey involving 231 participants — suggested people thought having the option to skip through a video or switch to another would make viewing a video less boring. (第一项实验的140名参与者显示:人们在认为视频内容越无聊的时候,越倾向于频繁切换视频;而第二项涵盖231名参与者的线上调查则发现,人们普遍认为,拥有快进视频或切换视频的选择权,能让观看过程没那么无聊。)”以及第六段“Data from a group of 166 undergraduates suggests participants felt more bored when allowed to skip about within a video than when they were not able to, while results from 159 undergraduates showed they reported higher levels or boredom when given a collection of five-minute videos they could switch between, compared with a single 10-minute video. (一组166名本科生的实验数据显示,允许在视频内自由快进快退的参与者,比没有这项权限的参与者感到更无聊;另一组159名本科生的实验结果也显示,与观看一段10分钟的完整视频相比,在五个时长各为五分钟的视频中来回切换观看,会让参与者的无聊程度更高。)”可知,研究使用了对比实验(对比可切换/快进视频与不可切换/快进视频的参与者无聊感)、线上调查和数据收集的方法,文中未提及实地调研。故选C。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段““Our research shows that while people fast-forward or skip videos to avoid boredom, this behaviour can actually make them feel more bored,” Dr. Katy Tam said. “Just as we pay for an immersive (沉浸式的) experience in a movie theatre, enjoyment often comes from immersing ourselves in videos rather than changing from one video to another.” (“我们的研究表明,虽然人们通过快进或切换视频来逃避无聊,但这种行为反而会让他们感到更无聊。”Katy Tam博士表示,“就像我们花钱去电影院追求沉浸式观影体验一样,观看视频的乐趣往往来源于全身心投入其中,而非在不同视频之间反复跳转。””)”可知,Katy Tam博士指出观看视频的乐趣源于全身心投入其中,而非在不同视频间反复切换,由此可推断人们应该专注于视频,才能获得更好的观看体验。故选B。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第四段“Writing in the Journal of Experimental Psychology: General, Tam and colleagues report how they carried out seven experiments involving a total of more than 1,200 participants. (Tam与同事在《实验心理学杂志:综合版》上发表文章,介绍了他们所开展的七项实验的情况,这些实验共涉及超过1200名参与者。)”可知,本文是基于发表在心理学专业期刊上的实验研究撰写的科普内容,这类内容通常会刊载于科学杂志。故选D。

(然后,通过聊你的课程、他们穿的衣服或者你周围发生的事情来进行随意交谈。)”说明要和独自一人的人随意交谈,空处和前文为因果关系,说明和独自一人的人随意交谈的好处。所以G项“这比接近一整群人要少些恐惧。”符合语境,点明了和独处的人交流的好处,呼应下文“it’s a great option if you’re feeling a little shy (如果你有点害羞,这是个好选择)”。故选G。
【20题详解】
上文“Join an after-school club.(加入一个课后俱乐部。)”说明要加入一个课后俱乐部,空处和前文为顺接关系,需解释加入俱乐部交友的合理性。所以F项“遇到有相同兴趣的朋友总是一个好方法。”符合语境,说明俱乐部中易遇到志同道合的人,契合“加入俱乐部”的交友场景。故选F。

第二节(满分15分)
57. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写一段结尾,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
When I was a pupil, I studied at a girls’ school. At that time, in order to get us to know each other as soon as possible, our teacher made all the girls in the class sit next to someone different every week.
One day, the teacher asked Shirley, with whom I had never talked, to sit beside me. I wanted to get along well with her, but she was always shy and quiet. Shirley had long, straight brown hair that she often pushed behind her ears. She wore simple, faded dresses that were clearly second-hand.
On one of those days, I noticed that Shirley was very upset. I asked her what was wrong. She kept silent for a long time. Finally, she told me that she came from a big family and she had several brothers and sisters. Her father was a hardworking but low-paid laborer and couldn’t afford school books for all of the children. Seeing her pain, I couldn’t help but say suddenly, “My parents can buy books for all of you.” But she refused, her face turning red with embarrassment.
When I came back home, I told my mom the story. Mom said that it was good that I had tried to help, but I should stop worrying about it because there was nothing more that I could do if she had refused my offer to help. A moment later, she recommended that I help Shirley in a way that Shirley might accept.
That night, I rolled back and forth in bed, thinking what I should do.
