My father always said that Oct.20 was the precise day when the Florida air shifted slightly with a tease of fall. Every year on that day, he’d lay some wood in the fireplace, strike a match, and sit close to the flames as if waiting for a season to arrive. If the temperature still remained warm, he would light incense (熏香) called “Campfire Memories” to increase the mood.
His romantic gestures contrasted with the hardships he carried from earlier years — the Great Depression and flying bombers during World War II. After law school, he rode southward on the Silver Meteor train line in search of a place to call home. When the train stopped in Winter Haven, he stepped down to stretch his legs and was hit with the scent (香味) of orange blossoms. He never got back on the train.
Later I was born in that small town, but when I was three, my mother died suddenly. From then on, father and I became a pair of many things. Professor and student, storyteller and listener. As I matured, he took me on trips, taught me manners and how to read the world. If I asked his permission to do something potentially controversial, he always said, “I’ll tell you what I think, and then it’s up to you.”
Father died at 72 — that was nearly thirty years ago — yet sometimes he returns in my memory. Recently, an occurrence took place at 5 a.m. on Oct.20 when I was taking a bag of trash to the wheeled bin out by the street. Then suddenly, a wind blew in from the west and seemed to surround and envelop me for a few seconds. Immediately, my mind went to Father. Perhaps Winter Haven felt something on schedule — Oct.20 — the day autumn always arrived for my father.
24. What does the father’s behavior on Oct.20 show?
A. His preference for cold weather. B. His deep-seated love for Florida.
C. His longing for seasonal changes. D. His romantic greeting of autumn.
25. Why did the father decide to settle in Winter Haven?
A. He continued his further law study. B. He wanted to break away from the past.
C. He was attracted by the atmosphere. D. He was eager to seek a lifelong partner.
26. What does the author think of his father?
A. Affectionate and open-minded. B. Far-sighted and strict.
C. Committed and hardworking. D. Responsible and warm-hearted.
27. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. Wind always made the author sad.
B. The author loved his father deeply.
C. Autumn was the author’s favorite season.
D. Oct.20 was the most important day of a year.
C
One evening after dinner, my six-year-old son had a total breakdown. He yelled and even hit his eight-year-old sister just because she would not share a stuffed animal. In that desperate parenting moment, I shouted at him, “Use your words!” Both kids froze for a second, and that short pause gave me enough time to calm down my quickly rising anger.
Later, I realized I had never explained to my kids why words are so helpful. As a psychologist, I study how putting our feelings into words can change our experiences. It not only helps us handle heated moments but also supports healing from life’s hardest situations. Research on expressive disclosure (表达) shows it can bring big health improvements, especially for people dealing with stressful events. Those who write about their tough times visit doctors less, feel less pain, have stronger immune systems, and cope better with their problems.
What surprised me most is that naming our feelings can actually transform the feelings themselves. Putting a strong emotion into words can weaken its immediate force, and it can also reshape our emotional memories. This process is called memory reconsolidation. When we talk or write about painful or overwhelming events, we don’t just relive (复活) them. Instead, we take it out of long-term memory, reorganize it with words, and put it back as a new, less painful memory. We add meaning and context, which reduces the pain it causes.
Of course, “use your words” is a tool that needs practice. Kids cannot think clearly when they are upset, so my wife and I talk to our children when they are calm. We help them build emotional vocabulary and plan how to respond to anger next time. Now, our daughter says “I’m so mad” when frustrated instead of acting out, and our son tries to ask politely for toys. These small wins do not just solve conflicts — they help kids feel capable, which is the foundation of long-term well-being.
28. Why does the author mention his son’s breakdown in Paragraph 1?
A. To introduce the topic. B. To raise readers’ awareness.
C. To prove his own theory. D. To draw a conclusion.
29. What is a function of expressive disclosure?
A. It treats diseases. B. It settles arguments.
C. It improves health. D. It removes toughness.
30. What’s Paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. How strong emotion disappears. B. How physical pains are removed.
C. How annoying events are relived. D. How using words shifts feelings.
31. Which of the following might the author agree with?
A. Calmness is the foundation of well-being.
B. A problem expressed is a problem halved.
C. There is no conflict that cannot be resolved.
D. Follow your feeling, but take your brain with it.
D
Many programs claim to boost happiness, like daily meditation (冥想) or 12-week gratitude diary. These activities from positive psychology do work, but most people are too busy to keep up with them. What if finding more happiness did not require a major time commitment or a big lifestyle change? What if it could come from simple, brief actions such as texting a genuine “thank you” to a colleague, asking a friend to share something that made them feel proud or looking at the sky’s vastness with wonder?
Inspired by the 2021 film Mission: Joy, researchers created a free, globally available online resource called the Big Joy Project. This free online program sends daily 5-10 minute micro acts to people worldwide. Examples include listening to a 42-second laughter clip or writing a gratitude list. Over 100,000 people from over 200 countries have joined, completing more than 400,000 micro acts. Studies show amazing results: after just one week, participants felt happier, less stressed, and even slept better. The benefits were for everyone — even people with financial struggles or lower education. The project also made people more willing to help others.
Why do these small acts work? We think it’s because they boost positive emotions, inspire feelings of connection, and help people feel more aligned with what brings them meaning and purpose. Indeed, many of these behaviors — practicing gratitude and being more sociable, for instance—have been well studied for years and found to be beneficial to the doer or giver. Also, they make people feel in control of their happiness, not just waiting for good things to happen.
In a world full of loneliness and burnout, micro acts are powerful. They prove that simple, daily micro acts can ratchet up happiness in a more empowering way. While more research is needed, the Big Joy Project shows that anyone can feel happier with simple, daily acts.
32. Why does the author raise two questions in Paragraph 1?
A. To exhibit some examples. B. To display mental activities.
C. To show research direction. D. To question previous programs.
33. What is a result of the Big Joy Project?
A. People rid themselves of all sleep problems.
B. People with lower education got more help.
C. People had their financial problems solved.
D. People were happier and willing to help others.
34. What does the underlined phrase “ratchet up” mean in the last paragraph?
A. Increase. B. Create. C. Affect. D. Spread.
35. What’s the best title of the passage?
A. Small Acts, Big Joy B. More commitment, More Joy
C. Simple Changes, Huge Gains D. More Attention, Greater Happiness

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。
Many of us want to age well — staying in good physical and cognitive health into our 90s and even beyond. But not everyone has the genes linked to longevity (长寿). ____36____. Here are some ways to promote a long and healthy life, according to people who are known as “super agers”.
Choose the right food
89-year-old top nutrition expert Marion Nestle attributes her longevity to the principle: ____37____. She defines food as unprocessed or minimally processed, not ultra-processed. She eats everything but in small amounts, partly due to age-related metabolism (新陈代谢) decline.
____38____
92-year-old Emma from Italy is a record-breaking runner, training 2-3 times weekly and walking on rest days. She advises older athletes to check with doctors, know limits and stay consistent. Experts say consistent exercise slows aging, recommending at least 30 minutes of aerobic activity (有氧运动) daily.
Connect with others and have a little fun
____39____. A study found exercise, healthy diet, socializing and brain games improve older adults’ cognition. Loneliness raises dementia (痴呆) risk, while strong social ties protect it. Morera and Rice, who are over 90s, stay socially active. They say that small and frequent positive social experiences build happiness and a good life habit.
Don’t fear setbacks
Many view aging as decline, but one research shows people over 60 can regain strength after health issues, with good mental health, social ties and healthy habits (no smoking, good diet and sleep). Florene Shuber, 91, said, “____40____.” She started gym training at 82 after several falls. Now she feels younger and stronger, stressing consistency is vital.
A. It’s never too late
B. Perseverance leads to victory
C. Try to be consistent in your workouts
D. Eat unprocessed food, not too much
E. Research shows social interactions boost well-being
F. You can increase your chances of aging well with certain lifestyle choices
G. You can still extend your lifespan through regular exercise and a balanced diet

As a teen, I hated aerobics. At the football court, I’d be the goalkeeper, only because it needed the least ____41____. On sports days, if I couldn’t skip it, I’d pick long jump because it needs less energy.
Unlike my friends who played football or rugby for fun, I saw exercise as punishment. As an adult, I tried running and didn’t hate it, but I always thought I was ____42____ at it. It made me feel like I was back at school, coming last in relays and ____43____ myself.
Then, at 38, I ran with my 5-year-old daughter. We talked about it at home, and she got ____44____. She said running sounded fun — and that reminded me: exercise should be ____45____, not awful. I realized I chose to run now, not because I had to.
Friends told us about junior parkrun: 2km runs for kids aged 4-14, where adults can join. It’s all about fun, not being the ____46____.
One cold Sunday morning, we went. Running with my daughter, I was shocked — she didn’t ____47____ or stop early. She really loved it. We didn’t compete or worry about ____48____ time; we just enjoyed running ____49____. I didn’t even check our _____50_____ on my app.
Later, when I ran alone and felt tired, my usual thought came: “Stop! You’re _____51_____!” But then I remembered how I encouraged my daughter that morning. So I told myself, “You’re doing great. Keep _____52_____.” It _____53_____! I talked to myself like I talked to her — kindly, like I was talking to my younger self. I didn’t want her to see running as _____54_____, so I shouldn’t either.
Now, junior parkrun is our regular thing. I don’t care if I’m “good” or “bad” at running, and I don’t _____55_____ myself to others. I just follow my daughter, enjoy the moment, and feel grateful my body lets me run with her. I don’t think about calories or kilometers anymore — only how good I feel.

Morning sunlight spilled across the zoo gate as Maya skipped forward, her zoo pass (动物园年卡) bouncing lightly against her chest. The familiar sounds — children laughing, birds calling, leaves rustling — made her feel at home. To Maya, the zoo was more than a place to visit; it was a world filled with warmth and life.
Among all the animals, red pandas were her greatest love. Their slow movements and fluffy tails always made her smile. Each weekend, Maya followed the same routine. She carefully prepared apple slices and bamboo shoots. Standing by the wooden fence, she held out the food and whispered gently, as if afraid to disturb them. Watching the red pandas eat gave her a deep sense of peace.
Before leaving, Maya never forgot the wishing pool near the exit. She dropped a coin into the water, closed her eyes, and made a silent wish for the animals’ health. When her mother once asked why she never wished for herself, Maya answered simply, “They need it more than I do.”
Everything changed when illness entered Maya’s life. Zoo visits turned into hospital appointments, and bright smiles were replaced by tired silence. Treatments were painful and costly. As days passed, Maya grew weaker, yet her thoughts often returned to the red pandas. Looking out of the hospital window, she would ask sadly, “Mom, do you think they’re okay without me?”
Medical bills soon emptied the family’s savings. One evening, Maya’s mother noticed the zoo pass, which was still active. Holding it in her hand, she hesitated for a long moment before picking up the phone. With a trembling voice, she explained their situation to the zoo staff, hoping for even a small refund (退款) to help with Maya’s treatment.
The person on the other end of the line listened quietly, and then asked a few questions about Maya and her love for the red pandas.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
The next day, several zoo staff came to the hospital.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Seeing the red pandas again, Maya’s face lit up with joy.

There was just me and a photographer. We went off for four months filming wherever we saw something interesting today. It's all quite different. Different in what way we do . months of preparation before we set off. So when we start filming, we know exactly what seems we want to get and what each scene is going to show. There was a strict plan. 听下面一段独白,回答第17至第24个小题。现在你有20秒钟的时间阅读这四个小题。Dinosaurs are often considered as giant creatures, but new research adds to evidence that they started out small.

【答案】17. B 18. A 19. C 20. B
【解析】
【原文】Dinosaurs are often considered as giant creatures, but new research adds to evidence that they started out small. The evidence comes from the remains of a creature found on Madagascar that lived some 237 million years ago and stood just 10 cm tall. It may also help reveal the origins of flying creatures that ruled the skies at the time of the dinosaurs. Christian Kammerer from the North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences said that there’s a general idea of dinosaurs as being giants, but this new animal is surprisingly small.
The creature that was found, named Kongonaphon kely, was discovered in 1998 in Madagascar by a team of scientists from the American Museum of Natural History. But we don’t know much about where these early dinosaurs came from, because few of these early animals have been found. The shape of the Kongonaphon kely’s teeth suggests it ate insects rather than leaves or grass. A shift to this kind of diet, which is related to small body size, may have helped early creatures survive by being different from their mostly meat-eating relatives.

My father always said that Oct.20 was the precise day when the Florida air shifted slightly with a tease of fall. Every year on that day, he’d lay some wood in the fireplace, strike a match, and sit close to the flames as if waiting for a season to arrive. If the temperature still remained warm, he would light incense (熏香) called “Campfire Memories” to increase the mood.
His romantic gestures contrasted with the hardships he carried from earlier years — the Great Depression and flying bombers during World War II. After law school, he rode southward on the Silver Meteor train line in search of a place to call home. When the train stopped in Winter Haven, he stepped down to stretch his legs and was hit with the scent (香味) of orange blossoms. He never got back on the train.
Later I was born in that small town, but when I was three, my mother died suddenly. From then on, father and I became a pair of many things. Professor and student, storyteller and listener. As I matured, he took me on trips, taught me manners and how to read the world. If I asked his permission to do something potentially controversial, he always said, “I’ll tell you what I think, and then it’s up to you.”
Father died at 72 — that was nearly thirty years ago — yet sometimes he returns in my memory. Recently, an occurrence took place at 5 a.m. on Oct.20 when I was taking a bag of trash to the wheeled bin out by the street. Then suddenly, a wind blew in from the west and seemed to surround and envelop me for a few seconds. Immediately, my mind went to Father. Perhaps Winter Haven felt something on schedule — Oct.20 — the day autumn always arrived for my father.
24. What does the father’s behavior on Oct.20 show?
A. His preference for cold weather. B. His deep-seated love for Florida.
C. His longing for seasonal changes. D. His romantic greeting of autumn.
25. Why did the father decide to settle in Winter Haven?
A. He continued his further law study. B. He wanted to break away from the past.
C. He was attracted by the atmosphere. D. He was eager to seek a lifelong partner.
26. What does the author think of his father?
A. Affectionate and open-minded. B. Far-sighted and strict.
C. Committed and hardworking. D. Responsible and warm-hearted.
27. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. Wind always made the author sad.
B. The author loved his father deeply.
C. Autumn was the author’s favorite season.
D. Oct.20 was the most important day of a year.
【答案】24. D 25. C 26. A 27. B
【解析】

【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Every year on that day, he’d lay some wood in the fireplace, strike a match, and sit close to the flames as if waiting for a season to arrive. If the temperature still remained warm, he would light incense (熏香) called “Campfire Memories” to increase the mood. (每年的这一天,他都会在壁炉里放些木柴,点根火柴,坐在炉火旁,仿佛在等待一个季节的到来。如果温度仍然温暖,他会点燃一种名为“篝火记忆”的熏香来增添气氛)”可知,父亲在10月20日的行为展示了他对秋天的浪漫迎接。故选D。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“When the train stopped in Winter Haven, he stepped down to stretch his legs and was hit with the scent (香味) of orange blossoms. He never got back on the train. (当火车停在温特黑文时,他下车伸伸腿,却被橙花的香味所吸引。他再也没有回到火车上)”可知,父亲决定在温特黑文定居是因为他被那里的氛围所吸引。故选C。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“From then on, father and I became a pair of many things. Professor and student, storyteller and listener. As I matured, he took me on trips, taught me manners and how to read the world. If I asked his permission to do something potentially controversial, he always said, “I’ll tell you what I think, and then it’s up to you.” (从那时起,父亲和我成为了许多角色。教授和学生,讲故事的人和听众。随着我逐渐成熟,他带我去旅行,教我礼仪和如何认识世界。如果我请求他允许我做一些可能有争议的事情,他总是说:“我会告诉你我的想法,然后由你决定。”)”可知,作者认为他的父亲是深情且开明的。故选A。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Father died at 72 — that was nearly thirty years ago — yet sometimes he returns in my memory. Recently, an occurrence took place at 5 a.m. on Oct.20 when I was taking a bag of trash to the wheeled bin out by the street. Then suddenly, a wind blew in from the west and seemed to surround and envelop me for a few seconds. Immediately, my mind went to Father. (父亲在72岁时去世,那已经是近30年前的事了,但有时他会出现在我的记忆中。最近,10月20日凌晨5点,当我提着一袋垃圾走到街边的轮式垃圾桶旁时,发生了一件事。突然,一阵风从西边吹来,似乎包围并笼罩了我几秒钟。我立刻想起了父亲)”可知,作者在10月20日凌晨的经历让他想起了父亲,由此可推断出作者深深地爱着他的父亲。故选B。
C
One evening after dinner, my six-year-old son had a total breakdown. He yelled and even hit his eight-year-old sister just because she would not share a stuffed animal. In that desperate parenting moment, I shouted at him, “Use your words!” Both kids froze for a second, and that short pause gave me enough time to calm down my quickly rising anger.
Later, I realized I had never explained to my kids why words are so helpful. As a psychologist, I study how putting our feelings into words can change our experiences. It not only helps us handle heated moments but also supports healing from life’s hardest situations. Research on expressive disclosure (表达) shows it can bring big health improvements, especially for people dealing with stressful events. Those who write about their tough times visit doctors less, feel less pain, have stronger immune systems, and cope better with their problems.
What surprised me most is that naming our feelings can actually transform the feelings themselves. Putting a strong emotion into words can weaken its immediate force, and it can also reshape our emotional memories. This process is called memory reconsolidation. When we talk or write about painful or overwhelming events, we don’t just relive (复活) them. Instead, we take it out of long-term memory, reorganize it with words, and put it back as a new, less painful memory. We add meaning and context, which reduces the pain it causes.
Of course, “use your words” is a tool that needs practice. Kids cannot think clearly when they are upset, so my wife and I talk to our children when they are calm. We help them build emotional vocabulary and plan how to respond to anger next time. Now, our daughter says “I’m so mad” when frustrated instead of acting out, and our son tries to ask politely for toys. These small wins do not just solve conflicts — they help kids feel capable, which is the foundation of long-term well-being.
28. Why does the author mention his son’s breakdown in Paragraph 1?
A. To introduce the topic. B. To raise readers’ awareness.
C. To prove his own theory. D. To draw a conclusion.
29. What is a function of expressive disclosure?
A. It treats diseases. B. It settles arguments.
C. It improves health. D. It removes toughness.
30. What’s Paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. How strong emotion disappears. B. How physical pains are removed.
C. How annoying events are relived. D. How using words shifts feelings.
31. Which of the following might the author agree with?
A. Calmness is the foundation of well-being.
B. A problem expressed is a problem halved.
C. There is no conflict that cannot be resolved.
D. Follow your feeling, but take your brain with it.
【答案】28. A 29. C 30. D 31. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。主要由作者教育孩子的生活事例引出用语言表达感受的话题,介绍其对调节情绪、改善健康的积极作用,还讲述家长该如何教孩子练习这一方法。
【28题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中的“He yelled and even hit his eight-year-old sister just because she would not share a stuffed animal. In that desperate parenting moment, I shouted at him, “Use your words!”(他大喊大叫,甚至打了他八岁的姐姐,只是因为她不肯分享一个毛绒玩具。在那个手足无措的育儿时刻,我对他大喊:“好好说话,不要打姐姐!”)”可知,作者以儿子情绪失控的生活事例开篇,目的是引出本文关于用语言表达感受的核心话题。故选A项。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Research on expressive disclosure (表达) shows it can bring big health improvements, especially for people dealing with stressful events.(关于表达性倾诉的研究表明,它能极大地改善健康状况,尤其是对于那些应对压力事件的人来说。)”可知,表达性倾诉的一项重要作用是能够改善人们的身体健康状况。故选C项。
【30题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段中的“What surprised me most is that naming our feelings can actually transform the feelings themselves. Putting a strong emotion into words can weaken its immediate force, and it can also reshape our emotional memories.(最让我惊讶的是,说出我们的感受实际上能改变感受本身。将强烈的情绪用语言表达出来可以削弱其当下的影响力,还能重塑我们的情绪记忆。)”可知,第三段核心讲述了用语言表达感受的具体作用机制,即如何通过语言表达来改变人们的情绪状态。故选D项。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中的“It not only helps us handle heated moments but also supports healing from life’s hardest situations.(它不仅能帮助我们应对情绪激动的时刻,还能助力我们从生活中最艰难的境遇中走出并恢复。)”、第三段中的“Putting a strong emotion into words can weaken its immediate force, and it can also reshape our emotional memories.(将强烈的情绪用语言表达出来可以削弱其当下的影响力,还能重塑我们的情绪记忆。)”以及第四段中的“These small wins do not just solve conflicts — they help kids feel capable, which is the foundation of long-term well-being. (这些小小的成功不仅能化解矛盾,还能让孩子感受到自身的能力,而这正是长久幸福的根基。)”可知,把情绪、问题用语言表达出来,能削弱情绪的力量、解决矛盾冲突,还能帮助人从困境中恢复,由此可知,作者应该赞成“把问题表达出来,问题就解决了一半”的观点。故选B项。
D
Many programs claim to boost happiness, like daily meditation (冥想) or 12-week gratitude diary. These activities from positive psychology do work, but most people are too busy to keep up with them. What if finding more happiness did not require a major time commitment or a big lifestyle change? What if it could come from simple, brief actions such as texting a genuine “thank you” to a colleague, asking a friend to share something that made them feel proud or looking at the sky’s vastness with wonder?
Inspired by the 2021 film Mission: Joy, researchers created a free, globally available online resource called the Big Joy Project. This free online program sends daily 5-10 minute micro acts to people worldwide. Examples include listening to a 42-second laughter clip or writing a gratitude list. Over 100,000 people from over 200 countries have joined, completing more than 400,000 micro acts. Studies show amazing results: after just one week, participants felt happier, less stressed, and even slept better. The benefits were for everyone — even people with financial struggles or lower education. The project also made people more willing to help others.
Why do these small acts work? We think it’s because they boost positive emotions, inspire feelings of connection, and help people feel more aligned with what brings them meaning and purpose. Indeed, many of these behaviors — practicing gratitude and being more sociable, for instance—have been well studied for years and found to be beneficial to the doer or giver. Also, they make people feel in control of their happiness, not just waiting for good things to happen.
In a world full of loneliness and burnout, micro acts are powerful. They prove that simple, daily micro acts can ratchet up happiness in a more empowering way. While more research is needed, the Big Joy Project shows that anyone can feel happier with simple, daily acts.
32. Why does the author raise two questions in Paragraph 1?
A. To exhibit some examples. B. To display mental activities.
C. To show research direction. D. To question previous programs.
33 What is a result of the Big Joy Project?
A. People rid themselves of all sleep problems.
B. People with lower education got more help.
C. People had their financial problems solved.
D. People were happier and willing to help others.
34. What does the underlined phrase “ratchet up” mean in the last paragraph?
A. Increase. B. Create. C. Affect. D. Spread.
35. What’s the best title of the passage?
A. Small Acts, Big Joy B. More commitment, More Joy
C. Simple Changes, Huge Gains D. More Attention, Greater Happiness
【答案】32. C 33. D 34. A 35. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要指出传统提升幸福感的方式耗时难坚持,介绍大快乐项目的微行动模式及成效,解析微行动能提升幸福感的原因,说明其简单且有强大作用。
【32题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中的“What if finding more happiness did not require a major time commitment or a big lifestyle change? What if it could come from simple, brief actions such as texting a genuine “thank you” to a colleague, asking a friend to share something that made them feel proud or looking at the sky’s vastness with wonder? (如果获得更多的快乐不需要投入大量时间或做出巨大的生活方式改变会怎样?如果快乐可以来自简单、短暂的举动,比如给同事发一条真诚的“谢谢”,让朋友分享一件让他们感到自豪的事,或者带着惊叹仰望广阔的天空,又会怎样?)”可知,作者提出两个问题,是为了引出后续基于简单微行动提升幸福感的研究方向,体现研究的切入点。故选C项。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Studies show amazing results: after just one week, participants felt happier, less stressed, and even slept better. The benefits were for everyone — even people with financial struggles or lower education. The project also made people more willing to help others. (研究显示了惊人的结果:仅仅一周后,参与者感到更快乐、压力更小,甚至睡眠质量也更好了。这些益处惠及所有人,即便是经济困难或受教育程度较低的人。该项目还让人们更愿意帮助他人。)”可知,大快乐项目带来的结果是参与者变得更快乐,也更愿意帮助他人。故选D项。

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。
Morning sunlight spilled across the zoo gate as Maya skipped forward, her zoo pass (动物园年卡) bouncing lightly against her chest. The familiar sounds — children laughing, birds calling, leaves rustling — made her feel at home. To Maya, the zoo was more than a place to visit; it was a world filled with warmth and life.
Among all the animals, red pandas were her greatest love. Their slow movements and fluffy tails always made her smile. Each weekend, Maya followed the same routine. She carefully prepared apple slices and bamboo shoots. Standing by the wooden fence, she held out the food and whispered gently, as if afraid to disturb them. Watching the red pandas eat gave her a deep sense of peace.
Before leaving, Maya never forgot the wishing pool near the exit. She dropped a coin into the water, closed her eyes, and made a silent wish for the animals’ health. When her mother once asked why she never wished for herself, Maya answered simply, “They need it more than I do.”
Everything changed when illness entered Maya’s life. Zoo visits turned into hospital appointments, and bright smiles were replaced by tired silence. Treatments were painful and costly. As days passed, Maya grew weaker, yet her thoughts often returned to the red pandas. Looking out of the hospital window, she would ask sadly, “Mom, do you think they’re okay without me?”
Medical bills soon emptied the family’s savings. One evening, Maya’s mother noticed the zoo pass, which was still active. Holding it in her hand, she hesitated for a long moment before picking up the phone. With a trembling voice, she explained their situation to the zoo staff, hoping for even a small refund (退款) to help with Maya’s treatment.
The person on the other end of the line listened quietly, and then asked a few questions about Maya and her love for the red pandas.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
The next day, several zoo staff came to the hospital.

Seeing the red pandas again, Maya’s face lit up with joy.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】例文
The next day, several zoo staff came to the hospital. They brought many gifts, including a soft red panda toy, a photo album full of the red pandas’ daily moments and even a donation raised by all zoo staff. Maya’s mother covered her mouth in surprise, tears gathering despite her attempts to stay composed. Maya traced each photo, hugging the toy close. No refund was mentioned — instead, they gave her a lifetime free zoo pass to cheer her up. With time going on, Maya recovered miraculously. The day to return to the zoo finally arrived.
Seeing the red pandas again, Maya’s face lit up with joy. She slowly walked to the fence, holding the apple slices she prepared. The red pandas recognized her at once, waddling over to eat from her hand. For the first time in weeks, Maya laughed happily. At that very moment, she found that kindness from the zoo staff and the love for the animals had brought her endless warmth and strength when she needed it most. (150)
