Zhoukoudian, Beijing Zhoukoudian, a UNESCO heritage site located 50 km from downtown Beijing, has been a significant site. At various parts of the site, scientists have unearthed the remains of early human “Peking Man” that date back more than 500,000 years, as well as of “Shandingdong Man”, who lived 30,000 years ago. Sanxingdui Ruins site, Sichuan province As one of the greatest archeological finds of the 20th century, the Sanxingdui Ruins are believed to be the remains of the Shu Kingdom, dating back at least 4,800 years and lasting over 2,000 years. The ruins are located in Guanghan city in Southwest China’s Sichuan province, covering 12 square kilometers. The Yinxu Ruins, Henan province The Yinxu Ruins, a UNESCO World Heritage Site in Anyang city, Henan province, was an ancient capital of the Shang Dynasty (16th century BC-11th century BC).

The Daming Palace, Shaanxi province Famous for its super-large scale and magnificent buildings, Daming Palace was the main royal palace in the Tang Dynasty (618-907) where Tang emperors lived and dealt with state affairs. Covering 3.2 square kilometers, it fully demonstrates the majestic style of grand architecture during the Tang empire. 1. Which site shows the earliest human? A. Zhoukoudian. B. The Yinxu Ruins. C. The Daming Palace. D. Sanxingdui Ruins site. 2. What is the Yinxu Ruins known for? A. The grand architecture. B. Oracle bone inscriptions. C. Royal palace in the Tang Dynasty. D. The remains of the Shu Kingdom. 3. Where can the text probably be found? A. In a novel. B. In a newspaper. C. In a history book. D. In a guidebook. B The Great Sock Mystery I had a serious problem. My sock drawer was mysteriously emptying. It wasn’t a ghost or a burglar with a strange habit; it was my dog, Buster. A fluffy, clever, and utterly mischievous Golden Retriever. For weeks, I’d find single socks under the couch or behind the TV, but never the pairs. Buster would just look at me with his big, innocent eyes, tail thumping against the floor as if to say, “Socks? Missing? How peculiar!” I decided to investigate. One Tuesday afternoon, I pretended to leave for work but quietly circled back and peered through the living room window. What I saw was a scene of strange dog business. Buster was not alone. He had company: a serious-looking Poodle from next door and a skeptical Beagle from down the street. In the center of the room was Buster’s prized possession: his fluffy bed. But it wasn’t for sleeping. It was a treasure collection. My socks were piled high upon it — the athletic ones, the warm woolly ones, even my favorite pair with pizza slices on them. The negotiation began. The Poodle, whom I recognized as Princess, stepped forward and dropped a high-quality, expensive dog biscuit at the edge of the bed. Buster sniffed it carefully, nudged a single, plain white sock toward her, and then pulled back his paw, guarding the rest. Princess seemed to consider this, then added another biscuit to the pile. Satisfied, Buster used his nose to expertly push two striped socks toward her. The deal was done. Princess picked up her new socks and trotted out proudly. Next was the Beagle, Barney. He offered a well-licked, slightly flat tennis ball. Buster immediately looked utterly unfazed. He turned his head away with a snort. Barney cried, then reluctantly added a half-eaten pig’s ear to the offer. This got Buster’s attention. A quick exchange was made for one striped sock. I burst through the door. “Buster! You furry little businessman!” All three dogs froze in guilty silence. Buster had the good manners to look embarrassed. He slowly crept over, not to apologize, but to gently nudge my least favorite pair of socks — the itchy Christmas ones from my aunt — toward my feet. It was a peace offering, a bribe to buy my silence. I couldn’t help but laugh. He wasn’t just a good thief; he was an excellent businessman. I took the socks. After all, every good economy needs a tax collector. 4. What drove the author to start the investigation? A. The sock drawer was often left open. B. Buster started barking at the sock drawer. C. Buster’s bed was suddenly filled with socks. D. Single socks were found in unusual places around the house. 5. What was the final outcome of the trade between Princess and Buster? A. Princess traded a costly biscuit for a plain white sock. B. Princess acquired three socks for two expensive biscuits. C. Buster exchanged his striped sock in the deal for a pig’s ear. D. Buster acquired a tennis ball and gave up two striped socks. 6. Which is close to the underlined word “unfazed” in meaning in paragraph 5? A. uninterested. B. uncertain. C. excited. D. confused. 7. What might the author do at last? A. Make the neighbor pay for the traded socks. B. Report Buster’s business to the animal shelter. C. Accept the sock as his share for forgiving Buster. D. Take all of Buster’s collections away as a punishment. C I often catch myself asking my questions to AI chatbots with a “please” and a “thank you.” Apparently, I am not alone. A 2024 survey found that approximately 67% of U.S. AI users are also polite and show gratitude toward AI search engines. Some even joked about the cost: if every polite word consumes electricity, the bill must be high. OpenAI’s CEO Sam Altman replied: “Tens of millions of dollars well spent — you never know.” In reality, of course, AI chatbots do not appreciate politeness; they lack consciousness, feelings or social needs. From a purely utilitarian (功利主义的) standpoint, all those pleases and thank yous are just flushing money down the toilet. Still, there may be value that isn’t immediately measurable in showing gratitude toward AI. Psychologists Robert Emmons and Michael McCullough carried out an experiment in which they divided participants into three groups, asking the first to list things they are grateful for, while others listed daily troubles or simply kept journals. After 10 weeks, they found that the first group reported 25% higher happiness levels, stronger inner strength and even better physical health. What’s true of gratitude is also true of kindness and generosity more generally. Experiments at UC Riverside found that performing “five small acts of kindness per week” produced steady increases in happiness. This idea isn’t new. The medieval thinker Maimonides wrote that “it is better for a person to give one coin to a thousand poor people than to give a thousand coins to one poor person.” He believed that regular acts of goodness, like giving charity and expressing gratitude, make us happier in the long run by turning virtue into a habit. So perhaps all of our pleases and thank yous to AI have value, even if they cost OpenAI millions of dollars annually. Showing appreciation, even toward a machine, reinforces positive habits of courtesy (礼貌), patience and empathy. In our increasingly digital and automated world, preserving these human qualities may be more valuable than the cost of a little extra electricity. Ultimately, the beneficiary of our politeness isn’t the AI at all, but ourselves. 8. How does the author introduce the topic in paragraph 1? A. By quoting an expert. B. By telling a story. C. By presenting a phenomenon. D. By defining a concept. 9. What value of gratitude does the experiment in paragraph 3 show? A. It strengthens our bodies and minds. B. It reduces daily stress levels. C. It improves memory and creativity. D. It deepens social relationships. 10. Which of the following would Maimonides most likely approve of? A. Giving gifts to friends on birthdays. B. Making a large donation to a charity. C. Expressing gratitude on Thanksgiving Day. D. Volunteering weekly at a community kitchen. 11. What message does the author mainly convey in the text? A. Courtesy to AI saves electricity bills. B. AI improves the quality of human life. C. Politeness benefits humans rather than AI. D. AI learns empathy from human behavior. D When babies try to make sense of what they have seen, their brain activity seems to tick at a slower rhythm than it does in adults, which may help them learn new concepts. Our brain processes sensory stimuli using networks of neurons (神经元). A neuron can transmit the signal it receives to more neurons, producing synchronized (同步的) waves of electrical activity. Such brainwaves occur at various frequencies. For instance, previous studies show that the adult visual cortex (大脑皮层) displays a wide range of frequencies when people see things, but more neurons seem to synchronize with waves at 10 hertz, or cycles per second. To learn whether the same applies to babies, Moritz Köster at the University of Regensburg and his team recruited 42 babies aged 8 months old, via their parents. The team recorded the babies’ brain activity using electrodes while watching dozens of cartoon monsters flash on a screen for 2 seconds each, over 15 minutes. The researchers made use of the fact that brainwaves tend to beat in time with rapidly flashing images, providing a way to test how many neurons synchronize with various frequencies in visual parts of the babies’ brain. Specifically, they flashed each monster on and off at eight frequencies, ranging from 2 to 30 hertz. By analyzing the recordings, they found that the visual cortex produced waves of synchronized activity in time with the flashing cartoons. But the brainwaves were the strongest at 4 hertz, which suggests more neurons synchronized with this flashing frequency than with others. The researchers also found that 4-hertz brainwaves in the visual cortex seemed to spread to neural circuits in other brain regions involved in concept formation. Repeating the experiment in seven adults, the team confirmed prior findings that their visual brain circuits are most strongly activated by a 10-hertz frequency. Adults have experienced many things, so the visual part of their brains seems to be tuned to tick at a higher frequency, which studies suggest may help them to block out unimportant information, says Köster. Further studies are needed to establish whether exposure to images flashing at 4 hertz could enhance babies’ ability to learn new concepts, says Emily Jones at Birkbeck, University of London. 12. What is the second paragraph mainly about? A. Previous studies on visual cortex. B. The formation of neuron networks. C. The mechanism of brainwave production. D. The frequency range of brainwaves. 13. Why did the researchers use flashing cartoons in the study? A. To transmit neural signals. B. To compare visual preferences. C. To measure neural synchronization. D. To maintain babies’ engagement. 14. What can we know about babies, according to the study? A. Their brains prefer a higher frequency. B. Their brains exclude irrelevant information. C. Their brainwave patterns are identical to those of adults. D. Their learning ability may be enhanced by specific frequencies. 15. What can be the potential application of the study? A. Building frequency-based attention assessment tools. B. Designing cartoon materials for concept development. C. Improving information screening in busy environments. D. Developing rhythm-based learning aids for early education. 第二节 (共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分) 根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 According to a 2024 attention study by King’s College London, 49% of the UK public are experiencing “popcorn (爆米花) brain”, a mental state featuring divided attention and wandering thoughts. ____16____ In response to the findings, psychologist Tina Chummun gives her top tips. Adopt the mind map method. To manage a distracted (分心的) mind, write down everything, like appointments, worries and to - dos, without organizing it initially.

Minimizing tech is also the key to getting back on track in your daily life. A full digital withdrawal is unrealistic. ____19____ Then it could be followed by a five-minute screen time reward. It teaches your brain to tolerate stillness without feeling punished. ____20____ At first, you may feel bored, as popcorn brain likes being ‘go go go’ to feel safe. “Go for a walk without music, or simply stare out your window,” suggests Tina. “Sit in silence and observe your thoughts. Let your brain breathe. It is sometimes exactly what your nervous system needs.” So, are you ready to quiet the mental popcorn and get your focus back? A. Allow space in your day for doing nothing. B. So, what’s making our brains pop like popcorn? C. Instead, go totally screen-free for 25-30 minutes. D. Starving distractions and feeding focus is a nice idea. E.

Barney cried, then reluctantly added a half-eaten pig’s ear to the offer. This got Buster’s attention. A quick exchange was made for one striped sock. I burst through the door. “Buster! You furry little businessman!” All three dogs froze in guilty silence. Buster had the good manners to look embarrassed. He slowly crept over, not to apologize, but to gently nudge my least favorite pair of socks — the itchy Christmas ones from my aunt — toward my feet. It was a peace offering, a bribe to buy my silence. I couldn’t help but laugh. He wasn’t just a good thief; he was an excellent businessman. I took the socks. After all, every good economy needs a tax collector. 4. What drove the author to start the investigation? A. The sock drawer was often left open. B. Buster started barking at the sock drawer. C. Buster’s bed was suddenly filled with socks. D. Single socks were found in unusual places around the house. 5. What was the final outcome of the trade between Princess and Buster? A. Princess traded a costly biscuit for a plain white sock. B. Princess acquired three socks for two expensive biscuits. C. Buster exchanged his striped sock in the deal for a pig’s ear. D. Buster acquired a tennis ball and gave up two striped socks. 6. Which is close to the underlined word “unfazed” in meaning in paragraph 5? A. uninterested. B. uncertain. C. excited. D. confused. 7. What might the author do at last? A. Make the neighbor pay for the traded socks. B. Report Buster’s business to the animal shelter. C. Accept the sock as his share for forgiving Buster. D. Take all of Buster’s collections away as a punishment. 【答案】4. D 5. B 6. A 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者发现家里的袜子神秘失踪,调查后发现是狗Buster用袜子和其他狗做交易的故事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“For weeks, I’d find single socks under the couch or behind the TV, but never the pairs.(好几个星期以来,我总能在沙发下或电视机后面发现一只袜子,但从来找不到成对的袜子。)”和第二段中“I decided to investigate.(我决定展开调查。)”可知,作者因在家中不寻常的地方频繁发现单只袜子,才决定展开调查。故选D。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“The Poodle, whom I recognized as Princess, stepped forward and dropped a high-quality, expensive dog biscuit at the edge of the bed. Buster sniffed it carefully, nudged a single, plain white sock toward her, and then pulled back his paw, guarding the rest. Princess seemed to consider this, then added another biscuit to the pile. Satisfied, Buster used his nose to expertly push two striped socks toward her.(我认出是贵宾犬Princess,它走上前来,在床边放了一块质量上乘、价格昂贵的狗饼干。Buster仔细地嗅了嗅,用鼻子把一只普通的白袜子推到她面前,然后缩回爪子,护着剩下的袜子。Princess似乎在考虑,然后又往堆里加了一块饼干。Buster很满意,用鼻子熟练地把两条条纹袜子推到她面前。)”可知,Princess和Buster交易的最终结果是Princess用两块昂贵的饼干换了三只袜子。故选B。 【6题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第五段中“He offered a well-licked, slightly flat tennis ball. Buster immediately looked utterly unfazed. He turned his head away with a snort.(他提供了一个舔得很好、有点扁的网球。Buster立刻看起来完全unfazed。他哼了一声,把头转了过去。)”可知,Buster对网球不感兴趣,所以把头转了过去,因此unfazed意思是“不感兴趣的”,与uninterested意思相近。故选A。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Buster had the good manners to look embarrassed. He slowly crept over, not to apologize, but to gently nudge my least favorite pair of socks — the itchy Christmas ones from my aunt — toward my feet. It was a peace offering, a bribe to buy my silence. I couldn’t help but laugh. He wasn’t just a good thief; he was an excellent businessman. I took the socks. After all, every good economy needs a tax collector.(Buster还算有礼貌,露出尴尬的神情。它慢慢爬过来,不是来道歉,而是轻轻把我最不喜欢的一双袜子——姨妈送的那双让人发痒的圣诞袜——推到我脚边。这是它求和的表示,想贿赂我让我闭嘴。我忍不住笑了。它不只是个偷袜子高手,还是个出色的生意人呢。我收下了袜子。毕竟,每个良好的经济体系都需要个收税人呢。)”可推知,作者将袜子当作原谅Buster的“税款”收下,接受了它的和解。故选C。 C I often catch myself asking my questions to AI chatbots with a “please” and a “thank you.” Apparently, I am not alone. A 2024 survey found that approximately 67% of U.S. AI users are also polite and show gratitude toward AI search engines. Some even joked about the cost: if every polite word consumes electricity, the bill must be high. OpenAI’s CEO Sam Altman replied: “Tens of millions of dollars well spent — you never know.” In reality, of course, AI chatbots do not appreciate politeness; they lack consciousness, feelings or social needs. From a purely utilitarian (功利主义的) standpoint, all those pleases and thank yous are just flushing money down the toilet. Still, there may be value that isn’t immediately measurable in showing gratitude toward AI. Psychologists Robert Emmons and Michael McCullough carried out an experiment in which they divided participants into three groups, asking the first to list things they are grateful for, while others listed daily troubles or simply kept journals. After 10 weeks, they found that the first group reported 25% higher happiness levels, stronger inner strength and even better physical health. What’s true of gratitude is also true of kindness and generosity more generally. Experiments at UC Riverside found that performing “five small acts of kindness per week” produced steady increases in happiness. This idea isn’t new. The medieval thinker Maimonides wrote that “it is better for a person to give one coin to a thousand poor people than to give a thousand coins to one poor person.” He believed that regular acts of goodness, like giving charity and expressing gratitude, make us happier in the long run by turning virtue into a habit. So perhaps all of our pleases and thank yous to AI have value, even if they cost OpenAI millions of dollars annually. Showing appreciation, even toward a machine, reinforces positive habits of courtesy (礼貌), patience and empathy. In our increasingly digital and automated world, preserving these human qualities may be more valuable than the cost of a little extra electricity. Ultimately, the beneficiary of our politeness isn’t the AI at all, but ourselves. 8. How does the author introduce the topic in paragraph 1? A. By quoting an expert. B. By telling a story. C. By presenting a phenomenon. D. By defining a concept. 9. What value of gratitude does the experiment in paragraph 3 show? A. It strengthens our bodies and minds. B. It reduces daily stress levels. C. It improves memory and creativity. D. It deepens social relationships. 10. Which of the following would Maimonides most likely approve of? A. Giving gifts to friends on birthdays. B. Making a large donation to a charity. C. Expressing gratitude on Thanksgiving Day. D. Volunteering weekly at a community kitchen. 11. What message does the author mainly convey in the text? A. Courtesy to AI saves electricity bills. B. AI improves the quality of human life. C. Politeness benefits humans rather than AI. D. AI learns empathy from human behavior. 【答案】8. C 9. A 10. D 11. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章指出很多人对AI礼貌,虽AI无感知且看似无用,但相关实验和观点表明,这种行为能培养人类礼貌、同理心等品质,最终受益者是人类自身。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“I often catch myself asking my questions to AI chatbots with a “please” and a “thank you.” Apparently, I am not alone. A 2024 survey found that approximately 67% of U.S. AI users are also polite and show gratitude toward AI search engines. Some even joked about the cost: if every polite word consumes electricity, the bill must be high. OpenAI’s CEO Sam Altman replied: “Tens of millions of dollars well spent — you never know.”(我常常会发现自己在向人工智能聊天机器人提问时会加上“请”和“谢谢”这样的词语。显然,我不是唯一一个这样做的。2024年的一项调查发现,大约67%的美国人工智能用户也会对人工智能搜索引擎表现出礼貌和感激之情。有些人甚至开玩笑说这要花费不少钱:如果每一个礼貌的词语都要消耗电能,那账单肯定很高。OpenAI的首席执行官萨姆·阿尔特曼回应道:“这花费了数千万美元——谁知道呢。”)”并结合下文对“对AI礼貌能培养人的礼貌、同理心等品质”的陈述可知,作者在第一段通过描述一个现象引入话题。故选C。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Still, there may be value that isn’t immediately measurable in showing gratitude toward AI. Psychologists Robert Emmons and Michael McCullough carried out an experiment in which they divided participants into three groups, asking the first to list things they are grateful for, while others listed daily troubles or simply kept journals. After 10 weeks, they found that the first group reported 25% higher happiness levels, stronger inner strength and even better physical health.( 不过,对人工智能表示感激所体现的价值可能并非是能够立即衡量出来的。心理学家罗伯特·埃蒙斯和迈克尔·麦卡洛开展了一项实验,他们将参与者分为三组,要求第一组列出他们所感激的事情,而其他两组则分别记录日常烦恼或只是进行日常日记记录。10周后,他们发现第一组的幸福感水平提高了25%,内心力量更强,身体状况也更好)”可知,第三段中的实验表明了感恩能增强我们的身体和心智。故选A。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“He believed that regular acts of goodness, like giving charity and expressing gratitude, make us happier in the long run by turning virtue into a habit.(他认为,定期的善举,比如进行慈善捐赠和表达感激之情,会通过将美德转化为习惯而使我们长期感到更幸福)”可知,迈蒙尼德认同每周到社区厨房做志愿服务的做法。故选D。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Showing appreciation, even toward a machine, reinforces positive habits of courtesy (礼貌), patience and empathy. In our increasingly digital and automated world, preserving these human qualities may be more valuable than the cost of a few extra electricity. Ultimately, the beneficiary of our politeness isn’t the AI at all, but ourselves.(向机器表达感激之情,哪怕只是向一台机器表示感谢,也能强化我们养成的礼貌、耐心和同理心等良好习惯。在我们这个日益数字化和自动化的世界里,保持这些人性特质可能比多消耗一些电能更有价值。最终,我们礼貌行为的受益者并非那台人工智能,而是我们自己)”可知,作者在这篇文章中主要传达了礼貌对人类有益,而非对人工智能有益。故选C。 D When babies try to make sense of what they have seen, their brain activity seems to tick at a slower rhythm than it does in adults, which may help them learn new concepts. Our brain processes sensory stimuli using networks of neurons (神经元). A neuron can transmit the signal it receives to more neurons, producing synchronized (同步的) waves of electrical activity. Such brainwaves occur at various frequencies. For instance, previous studies show that the adult visual cortex (大脑皮层) displays a wide range of frequencies when people see things, but more neurons seem to synchronize with waves at 10 hertz, or cycles per second. To learn whether the same applies to babies, Moritz Köster at the University of Regensburg and his team recruited 42 babies aged 8 months old, via their parents. The team recorded the babies’ brain activity using electrodes while watching dozens of cartoon monsters flash on a screen for 2 seconds each, over 15 minutes. The researchers made use of the fact that brainwaves tend to beat in time with rapidly flashing images, providing a way to test how many neurons synchronize with various frequencies in visual parts of the babies’ brain. Specifically, they flashed each monster on and off at eight frequencies, ranging from 2 to 30 hertz. By analyzing the recordings, they found that the visual cortex produced waves of synchronized activity in time with the flashing cartoons. But the brainwaves were the strongest at 4 hertz, which suggests more neurons synchronized with this flashing frequency than with others. The researchers also found that 4-hertz brainwaves in the visual cortex seemed to spread to neural circuits in other brain regions involved in concept formation. Repeating the experiment in seven adults, the team confirmed prior findings that their visual brain circuits are most strongly activated by a 10-hertz frequency. Adults have experienced many things, so the visual part of their brains seems to be tuned to tick at a higher frequency, which studies suggest may help them to block out unimportant information, says Köster. Further studies are needed to establish whether exposure to images flashing at 4 hertz could enhance babies’ ability to learn new concepts, says Emily Jones at Birkbeck, University of London. 12. What is the second paragraph mainly about? A. Previous studies on visual cortex. B. The formation of neuron networks. C. The mechanism of brainwave production. D. The frequency range of brainwaves. 13. Why did the researchers use flashing cartoons in the study? A. To transmit neural signals. B. To compare visual preferences. C. To measure neural synchronization. D. To maintain babies’ engagement. 14. What can we know about babies, according to the study? A. Their brains prefer a higher frequency. B. Their brains exclude irrelevant information. C. Their brainwave patterns are identical to those of adults. D. Their learning ability may be enhanced by specific frequencies. 15. What can be the potential application of the study? A. Building frequency-based attention assessment tools. B. Designing cartoon materials for concept development. C. Improving information screening in busy environments. D. Developing rhythm-based learning aids for early education. 【答案】12. C 13. C 14. D 15.

It’s a great honor to share my views on overusing AI learning tools like Doubao and deepseek. __________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Hello everyone! It’s a great honor to share my views on overusing AI learning tools like Doubao and deepseek. Overusing them not only stops us from thinking independently but also makes us lazy, gradually weakening our problem-solving skills. What’s worse, some students just copy answers directly without understanding the basic knowledge behind them. This does great harm to their long-term study. Actually, it is our own efforts and consistent practice that really improve our studies. We should treat AI as a helpful assistant rather than a substitute. It’s better to finish homework independently first, then turn to AI for specific explanations and practical study strategies to make up for our shortcomings. Let’s use AI wisely to boost our learning instead of letting it replace our thinking. Thank you! 【解析】 【分析】本篇书面表达属于应用文。要求考生以高一学生李华的身份,针对部分同学过度依赖AI学习工具完成作业的现象,陈述看法并提出建议。 【详解】1. 词汇积累 基本的: basic → fundamental 持续的: consistent → persistent/continual 替代品: substitute → replacement 弥补: make up for → compensate for/remedy 2. 句式拓展 合并句子 原句: What’s worse, some students just copy answers directly without understanding the fundamental knowledge behind them. This does great harm to their long-term study. 拓展句: What’s worse, some students just copy answers directly without understanding the fundamental knowledge behind them, which does great harm to their long-term study. 【点睛】【高分句型1】Overusing them not only stops us from thinking independently but also makes us lazy, gradually weakening our problem-solving skills. (运用了“not only... but also...”的并列结构和现在分词短语“gradually weakening our problem-solving skills”作状语) 【高分句型2】Actually, it is our own efforts and consistent practice that really improve our studies.
