B A carpenter(),having spent most of his life in construction,informed his employer of his decision to retire.He explained his desire for a slower-paced life with his wife and more time with his family.Although he would no longer receive a steady income,he trusted that their savings would support them. The contractor,regretting the departure of his most reliable worker,made one final request.He asked if the carpenter would build just one last house as a personal favor.The carpenter agreed,but his motivation was gone.He worked carelessly,using average materials and ignoring proper techniques.His final project was completed with uncharacteristic haste and poor quality. When the house was finished,the contractor came to inspect it.He then did something unexpected:he presented the key to the carpenter."This is your house,"he said."A gift for your years of faithful service.". The carpenter was stunned.Overcome with shame,he walked through the poorly built structure-noting the uneven doors and the weak floorboards-and was filled with deep regret.He realized that if he had known this was to be his own home,he would have used the finest materials and taken every possible care. This story mirrors a truth about our own lives.We build our futures through daily actions,yet we often act without full commitment.We make rushed decisions and overlook important details,as if we are building a temporary structure rather than our permanent home.One day,however,we awaken to find that we must live in the "house"we have constructed-the life shaped by our own past choices. 24.What can we learn about the carpenter when he built the last house? A.He was highly motivated to make it perfect. B.He treated it as a personal favor done with care. C.He worked casually without his usual standards. D.He used fine materials without ignoring proper techniques. 试卷第2页，共8页 25.How did the carpenter probably feel after receiving the key from the contractor? A.Proud and satisfied.

D.We should only do our best when the task benefits ourselves directly. C A new study in Annals of Internal Medicine says that going for one longer walk every day may be better for your heart health than going for many short walks.This is especially truc for people who don't do much physical activity.Walking continuously for around 15 minutes,or roughly 1,500 steps,allows the heart to work harder and gain greater health benefits. Although the popular goal of 10,000 steps a day is widely accepted,it actually came from a marketing campaign rather than scientific research.While experts agree that walking more is good for health,this study highlights that the pattern of walking is just as important as the total number of steps taken. Researchers from the University of Sydney analyzed data from 33,560 adults in the UK aged 40 to 79 who walked fewer than 8,000 steps per day.Participants were divided into groups based on the length of their walking sessions,from under five minutes to 15 minutes or more.Their health was then monitored over an eight-year period. The findings showed that those who walked for longer periods of time without stopping had a lower risk of heart disease and death than those who only walked for short periods of time.This benefit was especially noticeable among the least active individuals,including people who walked fewer than 5,000 steps daily.It's not clear if these people were healthier to begin with,but the researchers took into account things like smoking,being overweight,and having high cholesterol ) The study highlights that simple changes,such as setting aside time for a longer daily walk,can make a meaningful difference to heart health.Experts warn that the results only show an association rather than direct cause and effect,but current guidelines still recommend regular moderate exercise.Overall,consistent physical activity,especially walking in longer sessions,plays an important role in maintaining heart health and overall well-being. 27.What does the study mainly suggest in paragraph 1? A.Inactive people should avoid physical exercise. B.Walking speed matters more than walking time. C.Short walks are enough to improve heart health. D.Longer continuous walks benefit the heart more. 试卷第3页，共8页 28.What can be inferred about the goal of walking 10,000 steps a day? A.It was created for commercial. B.It encourages people to walk too much. C.It ignores differences between age groups. D.It is too difficult for most people to achieve 29.What can be inferred about the least active participants in the study? A.They preferred short walks to longer ones. B.They showed no improvement in heart health C.They benefited a lot from longer walking sessions. D.They were healthier than other participants at the start. 30.What does the word moderate in the last paragraph probably mean? A.Very slow. B.Not extreme. C.Quite intense. D.Highly irregular. D After a competitive event,three medalists stand on the podium()and receive a round of applause from the crowd,but their levels of happiness aren't equal. While it is believed that the higher the rank,the happier the medalist,psychological studies reveal it is not the case.Bronze()medalists often express greater joy and satisfaction than those who finish in second place.Researchers from the Carlson School of Management,who used facial expression software to compare the expressions of medalists at three different ranks,further confirmed that bronze medalists were more likely to exhibit a smile than silver medalists. This surprising result can be explained by counterfactual thinking,a mental process of imagining alternative outcomes to events that have already occurred.Silver medalists arc frcquently observed to experience regret and disappointment.For them, it's a shame that they missed out on the top prize.They tend to imagine the alternate reality where they win gold,which is known as upward comparison.Their sense of nearly achieving victory can cast a shadow over their accomplishments and lead them to feel unsuccessful. On the other hand,bronze medalists compare their achievement to the alternative of not winning a medal at all.This downward comparison brings them relief and gratitude because they feel fortunate just to be on the podium.The thought of"at least I won a medal"gives them satisfaction with their accomplishment. While silver medalists center on "almost winning,"bronze medalists find joy in making it onto the podium.This shows that contentment often depends less on the outcome itself,but more on how we frame it.By focusing on what we.have rather than what we miss,we might find more happiness in our lives. 31.What is true about the medalists'happiness? A.It is equal among the medalists. B.The bronze medalists feel happier. 试卷第4页，共8页 C.The higher the rank,the happier. D.The silver medalists express the greatest joy. 32.What is counterfactual thinking? A.Feeling successful and fortunate. B.Experiencing alternative outcomes. C.Imagining the results would have be different. D.Comparing accomplishments among the medalists 33.How do silver medalists usually feel about their achievement? A.Regretful and disappointed. B.Very satisfied and proud. C.Indifferent and neutral. D.Grateful and relieved. 34.What is the main message of the passage? A.Every cloud has a silver lining. B.Don't judge a book by its cover. C.Don't count your chickens before they hatch. D.A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出可填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余 选项。 As someone who's been saving money for her first trip in the new year,I certainly have my fears and reservations.My brain keeps trying to scare me with worst-case situations and excuses to stay home.But the entire point of traveling is to get yourself out of your comfort zone.35 Start small. Many people assume that traveling requires week-long or even month-long trips to resorts or expensive hotels,but true exploration doesn't have to be costly.Begin with short,manageable trips to build confidence.A nearby overnight stay,a dinner reservation at a local restaurant,a small-town hotel,or a weekend escape to a city you've long wanted to visit-all count as meaningful first steps.36Once you're comfortable being alone,gradually extend your travels or travel farther.
