(原创)The IB Middle Years Program (MYP) at Canadian International School of Hefei
The International Baccalaureate Middle Years Program (IB MYP) at the Canadian International School of Hefei (CISH) is a five-year program for students aged 11 to 16. It is a key part of the IB educational continuum, designed to prepare students for future academic studies and real-world challenges.
Program Focus & Structure
Going beyond a traditional curriculum, the MYP emphasizes all-round development through eight subject groups. The core of its educational approach is the “Approaches to Learning” (ATL) framework. This framework systematically helps students develop skills in five critical areas: thinking, communication, social interaction, self-management, and research.
Key Benefits
·Real-World Connections: Students learn to apply classroom knowledge to real-life situations and to develop intercultural awareness.
·Personalized Support: Each student is seen as unique. Teaching methods are tailored to individual learning styles to build confidence and promote growth, moving away from comparing students with one another.
·Service as Action: Through community service projects, students link their academic learning to practical action and reflect on their social responsibilities.
Why CISH?
CISH is the only school in Anhui Province authorized to offer the full IB continuum (Primary Years, Middle Years, and Diploma Programs). This allows for a coherent and globally recognized educational pathway from primary through high school.
21. What is highlighted as the central element of the MYP's educational approach?
A. Mastering eight compulsory subjects in depth.
B. A skill-development framework known as ATL.
C. Covering all academic areas through eight subject groups.
D. Focusing primarily on language and mathematical skills.
22. How does the MYP program deal with different learners?
A. By ranking students to motivate improvement.
B. By applying a standardized teaching model to ensure fairness.
C. By fitting teaching to personal learning styles.
D. By providing extra help in their least proficient subjects first.
23. What makes CISH special according to the text?
A. Its exclusive focus on preparing for the IB Diploma Program.

When Michelle Jackson retired at 56, she felt as if a door had suddenly closed. After decades as an engineer designing high-speed trains for British Rail, the once-busy rhythm of meetings, deadlines, and projects was gone. The silence that followed felt heavier than she had expected. “What am I going to do now?” she asked herself, faced with long days and too much quiet time.
Luckily, five years later, she found her answer. At 61, Michelle picked up her first camera, determined to learn something entirely new. As a beginner, she joined a local walking and photography group, often spending hours outdoors experimenting with settings she barely understood at first. She also signed up for online courses in photography and Photoshop, insisting, “If I’m going to do something, I’ll do it properly.”
Michelle always loved nature. In her twenties, she hiked long distances such as the 268-mile Pennine Way in northern England. Yet back then, she never thought of bringing a camera. Only after retirement did she realize that photography could preserve what had always touched her: the quiet wonder of wild places and animals.
Her hearing loss, which once pushed her into retirement, has sharpened her vision. She notes that the weakening of one sense can strengthen another. This heightened perception, coupled with great patience, allows her to tolerate long waits in nature — whether for seabirds to form a heart with their heads or for a deer to enter the twilight.
Now in her mid-60s, Michelle has won national and international awards. She spends at least 20 hours a week in the field, hiding under nets for cover or lying in wet grass, always ready for the excitement of the unexpected. Yet for her, success is not measured by awards. “Each time I see an animal appear,” she says, “my heart races. If you truly seek them, you will find them.”
24. What pushed Michelle to take up photography?
A. Her interest in online courses.
B. Her sudden hearing loss.
C. Her emptiness after retirement.
D. Her thirst for expanding her social circle.
25. How does hearing loss influence Michelle?
A. It enhances her ability to see.
B. It causes her lots of problems in daily life.
C. It enriches her knowledge about wild animals.
D. It deepens her understanding of human-nature relationship.
26. What does Michelle probably think of the awards she has earned?
A. They have helped her gain wide recognition.
B. They bring motivation for her to keep taking photos.
C. They fail to compare with the joy of spotting wild animals.
D. They are a silent witness to her progress in photography.
27. What message does Michelle’s story deliver?
A. Well begun is half done. B. Age is no limit to passion.
C. Nature is the best medicine. D. Failure is the mother of success.
C
Dark chocolate, mainly solid cocoa, is widely believed to be a healthier treat, often credited with benefits like lowering blood pressure and boosting brainpower. These claims are largely linked to flavanols (黄烷醇), compounds abundant in cocoa. However, a closer look at the scientific evidence suggests that we should be careful about eating dark chocolate.
While some short-term studies, frequently funded by chocolate companies, suggested potential advantages, their results have been inconsistent. More importantly, they are too brief to reveal the long-term effects of regular consumption. Observational studies, which simply note correlations (相关性), found that people who eat more dark chocolate tend to be healthier. But this could be because they often have higher incomes and better overall lifestyles, not because of the chocolate itself.
To settle the debate, a big randomized experiment was conducted. It involved older adults who took daily cocoa-flavanol supplements for several years. The findings were clear: the flavanols made no significant difference to the risk of developing heart disease, diabetes, or cancer. There was one positive note — a reduction in cardiovascular (心血管的) deaths — but this single outcome is not solid proof of benefit.
Crucially, obtaining a high share of flavanols from commercial dark chocolate introduces serious disadvantages. To counter cocoa’s bitterness, manufacturers add large amounts of sugar. It means a person would also consume a substantial portion of the daily recommended limit of fat, which is known to raise cholesterol (胆固醇) and harm heart health. A far healthier way to get flavanols is from foods like apples, nuts, strawberries, or green tea.
Ultimately, the celebrated health benefits of dark chocolate appear to be rooted more in marketing and wishful thinking than in robust science. While enjoying it as an occasional treat is fine, relying on it as a health food is misguided. True wellness comes from a balanced diet rich in various fruits, vegetables, and beans—not from a single, sugary treat.
28. What is a common belief about dark chocolate?
A. It has inconsistent benefits. B. Its benefits come at a high cost.
C. It contributes to physical health. D. Its advantages rely on long-term intake.
29. What is a result of taking in flavanols from dark chocolate?
A. Faster fat burning. B. Resistance to cholesterol.
C. Reduction of cancer risks. D. Increase in sugar consumption.
30. What does the underlined word “robust” in the last paragraph mean?
A. Basic. B. Solid. C. Advanced. D. Emerging.
31. Which is the best title for the text?
A. The Bitter Truth About Dark Chocolate B. A Guide to Choosing Healthy Chocolate
C. The Impact of Flavanols on Your Health D. Marketing vs. Science in the Food Industry

(新情景)A study has found that verbal abuse or hurtful words in childhood may be as damaging to long-term mental well-being as physical abuse, if not more so. This groundbreaking research highlights the need to treat verbal abuse as a serious public health issue that comes with lasting psychological consequences.
Research led by Liverpool John Moores University has drawn on the data of 20,687 adults from England and Wales. In the survey, participants were asked about their exposure to physical and/or verbal abuse before the age of 18. Then current mental health markers were assessed using a mental well-being scale, which factors in optimism, relaxation, social connection and coping skills. The survey asked participants how often they felt optimistic about the future, useful and relaxed.
What the researchers found was that those who experienced verbal abuse as children were 1.64 times more likely to report poor mental well-being as adults. Meanwhile, individuals exposed to physical abuse were 1.52 times more likely to have mental health problems later in life, and those who experienced both verbal and physical maltreatment were 2.15 times more likely to have negative mental health outcomes.
There’s a growing body of evidence that demonstrates how verbal abuse in childhood has long- term impacts. It’s often viewed as less harmful than other forms of maltreatment. The researchers found that while physical abuse had decreased — from around 20.2% of children born in the 1970s to 10% of those born in 2000 or later — verbal abuse has increased. This study found that those who experienced this in their youth had nearly double the likelihood of social isolation.
There remains an urgent need for greater measures to prevent physical abuse. Verbal abuse may not immediately manifest in ways that catch the attention of bystanders, clinicians, or others in supporting services. The researchers emphasize that this study doesn’t downplay the long- term harm of physical abuse, but it highlights the need to better consider verbal maltreatment when it comes to both child protection policies and mental health treatment in adults who have experienced this trauma.
32. What did the survey in paragraph 2 focus on?
A. Adult abuse experiences.
B. Social connection in childhood.
C. Current physical health markers.
D. Childhood abuse and adult mental health.
33. How does the author present the issue in paragraph 3?
A. By presenting comparative research data. B. By introducing the study’s background.
C. By explaining research methodology. D. By proposing policy solutions.
34. What change in abuse patterns did researchers note?
A. Physical abuse increased since 2000.
B. Verbal abuse decreased significantly.
C. Verbal abuse rose while physical abuse declined.
D. Both types dropped among newer generations.
35. What is the best title for the text?
A. Physical abuse prevention strategies
B. Verbal abuse’s lasting adult impact
C. Survey methods in psychology research
D. Improving childhood mental health policies

(原创)The Benefits of Power Naps
Winston Churchill swore by them. After polishing off a boozy lunch and a cigar the former British prime minister would climb into bed for an afternoon nap. The last part of his regime may be worth imitating.
____36____A randomised controlled trial in 2023 found that nappers woke up with improvements to mood, alertness and memory. Napping habitually might also be wise. A study from 2007 found that healthy adults who took regular naps had a 37% lower risk of dying from heart disease.
____37____Sleep scientists tend to agree that a short “power” nap, somewhere between ten and 30 minutes, is best. For example, in 1994 NASA found that a 26-minute power nap enhanced pilots’ performance. Sleep for too long and you enter deeper sleep phases and wake up feeling groggy. ____38____A meta-analysis in 2016 concluded that daily naps lasting more than an hour increased the risk of developing diabetes.
Some sleep experts contend that humans are biologically disposed to nap. They point to a natural dip in alertness after midday. ____39____ In cultures where this is common, however, nappers must still rest at night for the recommended seven hours.
Coffee is a popular antidote to midday drowsiness. ____40____A study published in 2008 found power naps to be more effective than caffeine at improving alertness and memory.
“The rest in the middle of the day”, Churchill wrote, “refresh the human frame far more than a long night.” Modern sleep experts might not go so far. But if you have time for a catnap, it could do you some good. Just remember to set an alarm.
A. However, the duration of your nap is critical.
B. This natural dip in alertness makes a brief daytime sleep appealing.
C. Sleeping during the day is not just for shift workers and cats.
D. Moreover, studies show such short naps do not harm nighttime sleep quality.
E. Therefore, office workers should be encouraged to take naps during lunch breaks.
F. Taking longer naps on a regular basis could even have negative health effects.
G. But research suggests a short nap might be a more effective solution.

(热点话题)A Chinese research team has developed a deep-learning tool called DeepWheat, ____56____ can help plant growers to predict the parts that decide plant features with high ____57____ (accurate). It uses AI to accurately predict how genes work in different plant parts and types of crops. This is very useful because crops like wheat have a ____58____ (remarkable) large set of genetic materials — about 40 times ____59____ (big) than rice’s, and five times the size of humans’.
____60____ (address) this complexity, the team built two core models into one tool. DeepWheat can find out how changing genes ____61____ (affect) plants and predict these changes clearly. Many crop genes can influence multiple traits (特征), sometimes in good ways and sometimes in bad ones. For example, ____62____rice gene might increase the number of flowers but weaken the stems (茎) if it’s too active. Current gene-editing relies on tiring, blind trial and error. DeepWheat offers a better alternative: systems that enable researchers to keep ____63____ (run) computer simulations (模拟) for testing all possible gene changes let them spot useful adjustments before real experiments, improving precision and saving effort.
Successfully ____64____ (test) in rice and corn, the tool has proved effective for many crops. It identifies key parts, improves editing targets, and solves a farming bottleneck — when improving one trait weakens another. By making better gene networks, DeepWheat reduces such trade-offs, speeds up good trait combination, and serves ____65____ a practical AI solution for developing high-quality crops.

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。
The ancient oak tree in the school courtyard served as the traditional “memories bank”. On the final day of senior year, students gathered to bury time capsules - letters to their future selves. Mia stood among them, clutching her sealed envelope with a heavy heart. Unlike others filled with hopes and dreams, hers contained a painful confession (忏悔) she had carried for three long years.
Her mind flashed back to the science lab, where her curiosity had led to disaster. Reaching for the school’s antique microscope, she accidentally knocked it from the table. It broke into two parts. She quickly picked them up and put them together. At this moment, the door opened revealing Ben, a quiet classmate, with Mr. Davies behind him. Ben came to fetch the microscope for an experiment. Hardly had he touched the microscope when it split into two parts.
To Mia’s astonishment, Ben quietly claimed responsibility. “I was moving it and it slipped,” he murmured, accepting the teacher’s disappointment that should have been hers. Mia watched in guilty silence as he bore the blame she deserved.
Now, watching Ben place his own letter in the hole and offer her a sad smile, Mia held the envelope tightly in her hand. The breeze rustled the oak leaves like whispering voices. She looked from the freshly dug earth to Ben’s figure, wondering if burying her truth was truly how she wanted to end her high school story.
注意:1. 续写词数应为150词左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Just as the dirt was about to cover the capsules, Mia suddenly stepped forward.

Paragraph 1
Just as the dirt was about to cover the capsules, Mia suddenly stepped forward. She raised her hand to stop the others, her eyes fixed on Ben. With a shaky voice, she told the story of the science lab incident—how she’d knocked over the antique microscope, how Ben had silently taken the blame, and the guilt that had haunted her ever since. As she spoke, her gaze never left Ben’s, and tears glistened in her eyes. The courtyard grew quiet, with only the rustle of oak leaves accompanying her words.
Paragraph 2
After telling the truth, Mia felt a light tap on her shoulder. She turned to see Ben, his previous sadness replaced by a calm expression. “I’ve waited three years to hear you say that,” he said softly. Mia felt the weight in her chest lift instantly, a wave of relief washing over her. She smiled back at Ben, then bent down to place her envelope into the hole—no longer carrying regret, but the peace of finally telling the truth.

【答案】18. A 19. C 20. A
【原文】Looking for a fun hobby, you can do anywhere any time without spending much cash upfront. You can’t go wrong with birding. Commonly known as bird watching, you can do it through your home or car window. While taking a rigorous hike or anything in between, I know bike riders who burned while biking at least by ear, says Rich Merritt, director of operations for Odorbar New York, a nonprofit conservation organization, that focuses on birds as well as other wildlife. Walk outside your back door or even peer out your back window. Many types of birds hang out in backyards, especially if you have bird feeders, says Sharon Stiteler, founder of Chick.com, and the author of 1001 Secrets Every Birder Should Know. As the saying goes, the early bird catches the worm, which is why many birds head outdoors when light first appears in the sky. Birds sleep at night and hungry in the morning. So they have to go out and eat, Stiteler says. Though you can bird watch at other times of day, avoid noon. Noon is when birds are least active, Stiteler says.

(原创)The IB Middle Years Program (MYP) at Canadian International School of Hefei
The International Baccalaureate Middle Years Program (IB MYP) at the Canadian International School of Hefei (CISH) is a five-year program for students aged 11 to 16. It is a key part of the IB educational continuum, designed to prepare students for future academic studies and real-world challenges.
Program Focus & Structure
Going beyond a traditional curriculum, the MYP emphasizes all-round development through eight subject groups. The core of its educational approach is the “Approaches to Learning” (ATL) framework. This framework systematically helps students develop skills in five critical areas: thinking, communication, social interaction, self-management, and research.
Key Benefits
·Real-World Connections: Students learn to apply classroom knowledge to real-life situations and to develop intercultural awareness.
·Personalized Support: Each student is seen as unique. Teaching methods are tailored to individual learning styles to build confidence and promote growth, moving away from comparing students with one another.
·Service as Action: Through community service projects, students link their academic learning to practical action and reflect on their social responsibilities.
Why CISH?
CISH is the only school in Anhui Province authorized to offer the full IB continuum (Primary Years, Middle Years, and Diploma Programs). This allows for a coherent and globally recognized educational pathway from primary through high school.
21. What is highlighted as the central element of the MYP's educational approach?
A. Mastering eight compulsory subjects in depth.
B. A skill-development framework known as ATL.
C. Covering all academic areas through eight subject groups.
D. Focusing primarily on language and mathematical skills.
22. How does the MYP program deal with different learners?
A. By ranking students to motivate improvement.
B. By applying a standardized teaching model to ensure fairness.
C. By fitting teaching to personal learning styles.
D. By providing extra help in their least proficient subjects first.
23. What makes CISH special according to the text?
A. Its exclusive focus on preparing for the IB Diploma Program.
B. Its authorization to offer the prestigious IB Diploma Program.
C. Its commitment to securing university admission for graduates.
D. Its ability to offer all IB programs.
答案:21-23 BCD
话题:国际中学课程优势
文章大意:本文介绍了合肥加拿大外籍子女学校提供的IB中学项目(MYP)的重点、益处及学校优势。
21.细节理解题。根据 Program Focus & Structure 部分第二句 “The core of its educational approach is the ‘Approaches to Learning’ (ATL) framework.” 可知,该项目教育方法的核心是名为ATL的技能发展框架。B选项“一个名为ATL的技能发展框架”准确对应了原文信息。A项“深入掌握八门必修科目”并非项目强调的核心方法;C项“通过八大学科组覆盖所有学术领域”是课程的结构特点,而非其教育方法的核心元素;D项“主要侧重语言和数学技能”是对原文中五个关键技能领域的片面理解。故选B。
22.细节理解题。根据 Key Benefits 下 Personalized Support 部分 “Teaching methods are tailored to individual learning styles...” 可知,教学方法是根据个人的学习风格量身定制的。C选项“使教学适应个人的学习风格”是原文的同义转述。A项“通过排名激励进步”与原文“避免学生之间相互比较”的理念相悖;B项“采用标准化教学模式确保公平”与“量身定制”的做法直接相反;D项“首先在他們最不精通的科目上提供额外帮助”属于对个性化支持的片面解读,文中并无此先后顺序的表述。故选C。
23.细节理解题。根据 Why CISH? 部分 “CISH is the only school in Anhui Province authorized to offer the full IB continuum...” 可知,CISH的特殊之处在于它是安徽省唯一被授权提供完整IB连续课程的学校。D选项“其提供全部IB课程项目的能力”准确地概括了这一核心优势。A项“其仅专注于IB文凭项目的准备”是对“提供完整连续课程”的严重曲解和范围缩小;B项“其拥有提供声誉卓著的IB文凭项目的授权”虽是事实,但未能体现CISH作为“唯一提供全部IB课程”这一独特之处;C项“其确保毕业生获得大学录取的承诺”在文中并未提及,属于无中生有。故选D。

When Michelle Jackson retired at 56, she felt as if a door had suddenly closed. After decades as an engineer designing high-speed trains for British Rail, the once-busy rhythm of meetings, deadlines, and projects was gone. The silence that followed felt heavier than she had expected. “What am I going to do now?” she asked herself, faced with long days and too much quiet time.
Luckily, five years later, she found her answer. At 61, Michelle picked up her first camera, determined to learn something entirely new. As a beginner, she joined a local walking and photography group, often spending hours outdoors experimenting with settings she barely understood at first. She also signed up for online courses in photography and Photoshop, insisting, “If I’m going to do something, I’ll do it properly.”
Michelle always loved nature. In her twenties, she hiked long distances such as the 268-mile Pennine Way in northern England. Yet back then, she never thought of bringing a camera. Only after retirement did she realize that photography could preserve what had always touched her: the quiet wonder of wild places and animals.
Her hearing loss, which once pushed her into retirement, has sharpened her vision. She notes that the weakening of one sense can strengthen another. This heightened perception, coupled with great patience, allows her to tolerate long waits in nature — whether for seabirds to form a heart with their heads or for a deer to enter the twilight.
Now in her mid-60s, Michelle has won national and international awards. She spends at least 20 hours a week in the field, hiding under nets for cover or lying in wet grass, always ready for the excitement of the unexpected. Yet for her, success is not measured by awards. “Each time I see an animal appear,” she says, “my heart races. If you truly seek them, you will find them.”
24. What pushed Michelle to take up photography?
A. Her interest in online courses.
B. Her sudden hearing loss.
C. Her emptiness after retirement.
D. Her thirst for expanding her social circle.
25. How does hearing loss influence Michelle?
A. It enhances her ability to see.
B. It causes her lots of problems in daily life.
C. It enriches her knowledge about wild animals.
D. It deepens her understanding of human-nature relationship.
26. What does Michelle probably think of the awards she has earned?
A. They have helped her gain wide recognition.
B. They bring motivation for her to keep taking photos.
C. They fail to compare with the joy of spotting wild animals.
D. They are a silent witness to her progress in photography.
27. What message does Michelle’s story deliver?
A. Well begun is half done. B. Age is no limit to passion.
C. Nature is the best medicine. D. Failure is the mother of success.

文章大意:本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述米歇尔·杰克逊退休后因生活空虚接触摄影,凭借对自然的热爱和耐心深耕,虽受听力损伤影响却精进视觉感知,最终斩获摄影奖项,领悟生活真谛的故事。
【解析】
24.细节理解题。根据第一段中的“When Michelle Jackson retired at 56, she felt as if a door had suddenly closed.(米歇尔·杰克逊56岁退休时,感觉一扇门突然关上了。)”以及“The silence that followed felt heavier than she had expected. ‘What am I going to do now?’ she asked herself, faced with long days and too much quiet time.(随之而来的寂静比她预想的更沉重。“我现在要做什么?”面对漫长的日子和过多的安静时光,她自言自语)”及第二段首句“Luckily, five years later, she found her answer. At 61, Michelle picked up her first camera, determined to learn something entirely new.(幸运的是,五年后,她找到了答案。61岁时,米歇尔拿起了她的第一台相机,决心学习一些全新的东西)”可知,退休后的空虚感促使米歇尔开始接触摄影。故选C项。
25.细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Her hearing loss, which once pushed her into retirement, has sharpened her vision. She notes that the weakening of one sense can strengthen another.(曾经迫使她退休的听力损伤,反而敏锐了她的视觉。她指出,一种感官的减弱会增强另一种感官)”可知,听力损伤提升了米歇尔的视觉能力。故选A项。
26.推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Yet for her, success is not measured by awards. “Each time I see an animal appear,” she says, “my heart races. If you truly seek them, you will find them.”(然而对她来说,成功不是用奖项来衡量的。“每次看到动物出现,”她说,“我的心都会怦怦直跳。如果你真心去寻找它们,你就会找到它们。”)”可推断,米歇尔认为奖项远不及发现野生动物时的喜悦有价值。故选C项。
27.推理判断题。通读全文可知,文章主要讲述米歇尔56岁退休后陷入空虚,61岁才开始接触摄影这一全新领域,凭借热爱和坚持在六十多岁斩获国内外奖项,打破了年龄对追求热爱的限制。她的故事传递出“年龄不是激情的阻碍”。故选B项。
C
Dark chocolate, mainly solid cocoa, is widely believed to be a healthier treat, often credited with benefits like lowering blood pressure and boosting brainpower. These claims are largely linked to flavanols (黄烷醇), compounds abundant in cocoa. However, a closer look at the scientific evidence suggests that we should be careful about eating dark chocolate.
While some short-term studies, frequently funded by chocolate companies, suggested potential advantages, their results have been inconsistent. More importantly, they are too brief to reveal the long-term effects of regular consumption. Observational studies, which simply note correlations (相关性), found that people who eat more dark chocolate tend to be healthier. But this could be because they often have higher incomes and better overall lifestyles, not because of the chocolate itself.
To settle the debate, a big randomized experiment was conducted. It involved older adults who took daily cocoa-flavanol supplements for several years. The findings were clear: the flavanols made no significant difference to the risk of developing heart disease, diabetes, or cancer. There was one positive note — a reduction in cardiovascular (心血管的) deaths — but this single outcome is not solid proof of benefit.
Crucially, obtaining a high share of flavanols from commercial dark chocolate introduces serious disadvantages. To counter cocoa’s bitterness, manufacturers add large amounts of sugar. It means a person would also consume a substantial portion of the daily recommended limit of fat, which is known to raise cholesterol (胆固醇) and harm heart health. A far healthier way to get flavanols is from foods like apples, nuts, strawberries, or green tea.
Ultimately, the celebrated health benefits of dark chocolate appear to be rooted more in marketing and wishful thinking than in robust science. While enjoying it as an occasional treat is fine, relying on it as a health food is misguided. True wellness comes from a balanced diet rich in various fruits, vegetables, and beans—not from a single, sugary treat.
28. What is a common belief about dark chocolate?
A. It has inconsistent benefits. B. Its benefits come at a high cost.
C. It contributes to physical health. D. Its advantages rely on long-term intake.
29. What is a result of taking in flavanols from dark chocolate?
A. Faster fat burning. B. Resistance to cholesterol.
C. Reduction of cancer risks. D. Increase in sugar consumption.
30. What does the underlined word “robust” in the last paragraph mean?
A. Basic. B. Solid. C. Advanced. D. Emerging.
31. Which is the best title for the text?
A. The Bitter Truth About Dark Chocolate B. A Guide to Choosing Healthy Chocolate
C. The Impact of Flavanols on Your Health D. Marketing vs. Science in the Food Industry
答案:28-31 CDBA
话题:对流行“超级食物”健康宣称的科学审视与批判性消费
文章大意:本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讨论了黑巧克力被广泛认为的健康益处,指出这些益处更多基于营销和一厢情愿的想法,而非坚实的科学依据。
【解析】
28.细节理解题。根据第一段“Dark chocolate, mainly solid cocoa, is widely believed to be a healthier treat, often credited with benefits like lowering blood pressure and boosting brainpower.(黑巧克力,主要是固体可可,被广泛认为是一种更健康的零食,人们认为它有降低血压和提高智力的好处)”可知,关于黑巧克力,人们普遍认为它有助于身体健康。故选C项。
29.细节理解题。根据第四段“Crucially, obtaining a high share of flavanols from commercial dark chocolate introduces serious disadvantages. To counter cocoa’s bitterness, manufacturers add large amounts of sugar.(至关重要的是,从商业黑巧克力中获取高比例的黄烷醇会带来严重的缺点。为了抵消可可的苦味,制造商添加了大量的糖)”可知,从黑巧克力中摄取黄烷醇会导致糖的摄入量增加。故选D项。
30.词句猜测题。根据最后一段中“Ultimately, the celebrated health benefits of dark chocolate appear to be rooted more in marketing and wishful thinking than in robust science. (最终,黑巧克力那些备受称赞的健康益处似乎更多植根于市场营销和一厢情愿的想法,而非robust的科学)”可知,划线词“robust”与“marketing and wishful thinking (营销和一厢情愿的想法)”形成对比,用来修饰“science”,应指“坚实的、可靠的”科学证据,与B项“Solid”意思相近。故选B项。
31.主旨大意题。通读全文,文章开篇第一段“Dark chocolate, mainly solid cocoa, is widely believed to be a healthier treat, often credited with benefits like lowering blood pressure and boosting brainpower. These claims are largely linked to flavanols, compounds abundant in cocoa. However, a closer look at the scientific evidence suggests that we should be careful about eating dark chocolate.(人们普遍认为,以固体可可为主的黑巧克力是更健康的零食,常被认为具有降低血压、增强脑力等益处。这些说法主要与可可中富含的黄烷醇化合物有关。然而,仔细审视科学证据会发现,我们对食用黑巧克力应持谨慎态度)”即引出对黑巧克力健康宣称的质疑。随后,文章第二、三段分析相关科学证据的薄弱之处,第四段揭示其高糖高脂的健康风险,最后一段总结其健康益处更多源于营销。全文核心在于揭示关于黑巧克力健康的“苦涩真相”。A项“The Bitter Truth About Dark Chocolate (黑巧克力的苦涩真相)”准确概括了这一主题,是文章最佳标题。故选A项。
D
(新情景)A study has found that verbal abuse or hurtful words in childhood may be as damaging to long-term mental well-being as physical abuse, if not more so. This groundbreaking research highlights the need to treat verbal abuse as a serious public health issue that comes with lasting psychological consequences.
Research led by Liverpool John Moores University has drawn on the data of 20,687 adults from England and Wales. In the survey, participants were asked about their exposure to physical and/or verbal abuse before the age of 18. Then current mental health markers were assessed using a mental well-being scale, which factors in optimism, relaxation, social connection and coping skills. The survey asked participants how often they felt optimistic about the future, useful and relaxed.
What the researchers found was that those who experienced verbal abuse as children were 1.64 times more likely to report poor mental well-being as adults. Meanwhile, individuals exposed to physical abuse were 1.52 times more likely to have mental health problems later in life, and those who experienced both verbal and physical maltreatment were 2.15 times more likely to have negative mental health outcomes.
There’s a growing body of evidence that demonstrates how verbal abuse in childhood has long- term impacts. It’s often viewed as less harmful than other forms of maltreatment. The researchers found that while physical abuse had decreased — from around 20.2% of children born in the 1970s to 10% of those born in 2000 or later — verbal abuse has increased. This study found that those who experienced this in their youth had nearly double the likelihood of social isolation.
There remains an urgent need for greater measures to prevent physical abuse. Verbal abuse may not immediately manifest in ways that catch the attention of bystanders, clinicians, or others in supporting services. The researchers emphasize that this study doesn’t downplay the long- term harm of physical abuse, but it highlights the need to better consider verbal maltreatment when it comes to both child protection policies and mental health treatment in adults who have experienced this trauma.
32. What did the survey in paragraph 2 focus on?
A. Adult abuse experiences.
B. Social connection in childhood.
C. Current physical health markers.
D. Childhood abuse and adult mental health.
33. How does the author present the issue in paragraph 3?
A. By presenting comparative research data. B. By introducing the study’s background.
C. By explaining research methodology. D. By proposing policy solutions.
34. What change in abuse patterns did researchers note?
A. Physical abuse increased since 2000.
B. Verbal abuse decreased significantly.
C. Verbal abuse rose while physical abuse declined.
D. Both types dropped among newer generations.
35. What is the best title for the text?
A. Physical abuse prevention strategies
B. Verbal abuse’s lasting adult impact
C. Survey methods in psychology research
D. Improving childhood mental health policies
答案:32-35 DACB
话题:儿童期言语虐待作为一种被低估的公共卫生风险及其长期心理健康影响
文章大意:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要围绕一项研究发现展开,阐述了童年时期言语虐待对成年后心理健康的长期影响,并与身体虐待进行对比,强调了关注言语虐待的必要性。
【解析】
32.细节理解题。根据第二段中“In the survey, participants were asked about their exposure to physical and/or verbal abuse before the age of 18. Then current mental health markers were assessed using a mental well-being scale, which factors in optimism, relaxation, social connection and coping skills.(在调查中,参与者被问及他们在18岁之前是否遭受过身体和/或言语虐待。然后使用心理健康量表评估当前的心理健康指标,该量表考虑了乐观、放松、社会联系和应对技能等因素)”可知,第2段的调查关注的是童年期虐待和成年后的心理健康之间的关系。故选D项。
33.推理判断题。根据第三段中“What the researchers found was that those who experienced verbal abuse as children were 1.64 times more likely to report poor mental well-being as adults. Meanwhile, individuals exposed to physical abuse were 1.52 times more likely to have mental health problems later in life, and those who experienced both verbal and physical maltreatment were 2.15 times more likely to have negative mental health outcomes.(研究人员发现,那些在童年时期遭受过言语虐待的人,成年后报告心理健康状况不佳的可能性要高出1.64倍。与此同时,遭受过身体虐待的人在以后的生活中出现心理健康问题的可能性要高出1.52倍,而同时遭受过言语和身体虐待的人出现负面心理健康结果的可能性要高出2.15倍)”可知,作者在本段通过展示对比性的研究数据来呈现问题。故选A项。
34.细节理解题。根据第四段中“The researchers found that while physical abuse had decreased — from around 20.2% of children born in the 1970s to 10% of those born in 2000 or later — verbal abuse has increased.(研究人员发现,虽然身体虐待有所减少——从20世纪70年代出生的儿童中约20.2%减少到2000年及以后出生的儿童中的10%——但言语虐待有所增加)”可知,研究人员注意到言语虐待增多而身体虐待减少这一虐待模式的变化。故选C项。
35.主旨大意题。通读全文,文章第一段“A study has found that verbal abuse or hurtful words in childhood may be as damaging to long-term mental well-being as physical abuse, if not more so. (一项研究发现,童年时期的语言虐待或伤害性话语对长期心理健康的危害,甚至可能更为严重)”开宗明义,确立了全文核心:关注童年语言虐待对成年心理健康的持久影响。随后,文章通过介绍研究数据(如第三段的风险倍数对比)和趋势变化(第四段语言虐待发生率上升),论证了语言虐待问题的严重性和紧迫性。文章结尾也呼应了这一主题,强调需关注语言虐待带来的创伤。因此,B项“Verbal abuse’s lasting adult impact (语言虐待对成年人的持久影响)”准确概括了全文主旨,适合作文章标题。故选B项。
第二节(共5小题;每小题2. 5分, 满分12. 5分)
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。
(原创)The Benefits of Power Naps
Winston Churchill swore by them. After polishing off a boozy lunch and a cigar the former British prime minister would climb into bed for an afternoon nap. The last part of his regime may be worth imitating.
____36____A randomised controlled trial in 2023 found that nappers woke up with improvements to mood, alertness and memory. Napping habitually might also be wise. A study from 2007 found that healthy adults who took regular naps had a 37% lower risk of dying from heart disease.
____37____Sleep scientists tend to agree that a short “power” nap, somewhere between ten and 30 minutes, is best. For example, in 1994 NASA found that a 26-minute power nap enhanced pilots’ performance. Sleep for too long and you enter deeper sleep phases and wake up feeling groggy. ____38____A meta-analysis in 2016 concluded that daily naps lasting more than an hour increased the risk of developing diabetes.
Some sleep experts contend that humans are biologically disposed to nap. They point to a natural dip in alertness after midday. ____39____ In cultures where this is common, however, nappers must still rest at night for the recommended seven hours.
Coffee is a popular antidote to midday drowsiness. ____40____A study published in 2008 found power naps to be more effective than caffeine at improving alertness and memory.
“The rest in the middle of the day”, Churchill wrote, “refresh the human frame far more than a long night.” Modern sleep experts might not go so far. But if you have time for a catnap, it could do you some good. Just remember to set an alarm.
A. However, the duration of your nap is critical.
B. This natural dip in alertness makes a brief daytime sleep appealing.
C. Sleeping during the day is not just for shift workers and cats.
D. Moreover, studies show such short naps do not harm nighttime sleep quality.
E. Therefore, office workers should be encouraged to take naps during lunch breaks.
F. Taking longer naps on a regular basis could even have negative health effects.
G. But research suggests a short nap might be a more effective solution.
答案:36-40 CAFBG
话题:高效小睡(Power Nap)的益处、科学依据与最佳实践
文章大意: 本文是一篇说明文。文章探讨了午间小睡的益处,包括改善情绪、警觉性、记忆力和心血管健康,并强调了时长的关键性(10-30分钟为佳)。同时,文章从生理节律角度解释了人类适合小睡的原因,并将其与喝咖啡提神的效果进行对比,最终指出短暂的小睡是更有效的休息方式。
【解析】
36.根据上文“Winston Churchill... The last part of his regime may be worth imitating.(温斯顿·丘吉尔……他这一习惯的最后部分或许值得效仿。)”以及下文“A randomised controlled trial in 2023 found that...(2023年的一项随机对照试验发现……)”可知,上文以名人例子引出话题,下文开始列举科学研究的普遍性证据。因此,此处需要一个承上启下的主题句,将话题从个例转向普遍的科学论述。C选项“Sleeping during the day is not just for shift workers and cats.(日间小睡并非仅属于轮班工人和猫咪。)”打破了人们对午睡的刻板印象,为下文阐述“人人皆可受益”及一系列科学研究做铺垫,逻辑连贯。故选C项。
37.根据上文第二段主要阐述小睡的诸多益处,以及下文“Sleep scientists tend to agree that a short ‘power’ nap, somewhere between ten and 30 minutes, is best.(睡眠科学家倾向于认为,一次10到30分钟的短暂‘高效’小睡是最佳的。)”可知,下文开始讨论小睡的“具体时长”问题。因此,此处需要一个表示转折的句子,引出享受前述益处的前提条件或重要限制。A选项“However, the duration of your nap is critical.(然而,你小睡的时长至关重要。)”中的“However”完美承接转折关系,“duration(时长)”一词精准预判了下文的核心讨论内容。故选A项。
38.根据上文“Sleep for too long and you enter deeper sleep phases and wake up feeling groggy.(睡得太久,你会进入更深睡眠阶段,醒来时感到昏昏沉沉。)”以及下文“A meta-analysis in 2016 concluded that daily naps lasting more than an hour increased the risk of developing diabetes.(2016年的一项荟萃分析得出结论,每天持续一小时以上的小睡会增加患糖尿病的风险。)”可知,上文描述睡太久的即时感受,下文引用研究说明其长期健康风险。因此,此处需要一个概括性观点句,既总结“长睡”的不良影响,又引出后文的科学例证。F选项“Taking longer naps on a regular basis could even have negative health effects.(经常进行较长时间的小睡甚至可能对健康产生负面影响。)”恰好扮演了这个角色,使段落内部形成“观点→现象→研究证据”的完整逻辑链。故选F项。
39.根据上文“Some sleep experts contend that humans are biologically disposed to nap. They point to a natural dip in alertness after midday.(一些睡眠专家认为,人类在生理上就适合小睡。他们指出,午后警觉性会自然下降。)”可知,前文提出了“生理适合”的观点及理由(警觉性自然下降)。因此,此处需要一个对前文理由进行解释或推论的句子,说明这个生理现象意味着什么。B选项“This natural dip in alertness makes a brief daytime sleep appealing.(这种警觉性的自然下降使得短暂的日间小睡颇具吸引力。)”中,“This natural dip”完美指代前文,“makes...appealing”则解释了为什么“生理适合”会自然地导向“行为倾向”,逻辑紧密,为后文“但夜间仍需充足睡眠”的转折做好了铺垫。故选B项。
40.根据上文“Coffee is a popular antidote to midday drowsiness.(咖啡是应对午后困倦的流行解药。)”以及下文“A study published in 2008 found power naps to be more effective than caffeine at improving alertness and memory.(2008年发表的一项研究发现,在提高警觉性和记忆力方面,高效小睡比咖啡因更有效。)”可知,上文提出一种解困方法(咖啡),下文用研究证明另一种方法(小睡)更优。因此,此处需要一个表示对比或转折的句子,将讨论焦点从“咖啡”引向“小睡”,并暗示后者的优势。G选项“But research suggests a short nap might be a more effective solution.(但研究表明,短暂的小睡或许是更有效的解决方法。)”中的“But”表示对比,“a short nap”对应下文的“power naps”,“more effective solution”则直接引出了下文的研究结论,衔接流畅自然。故选G项。

第二节(共10小题;每小题1.5分 ,满分15分)
阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
(热点话题)A Chinese research team has developed a deep-learning tool called DeepWheat, ____56____ can help plant growers to predict the parts that decide plant features with high ____57____ (accurate). It uses AI to accurately predict how genes work in different plant parts and types of crops. This is very useful because crops like wheat have a ____58____ (remarkable) large set of genetic materials — about 40 times ____59____ (big) than rice’s, and five times the size of humans’.
____60____ (address) this complexity, the team built two core models into one tool. DeepWheat can find out how changing genes ____61____ (affect) plants and predict these changes clearly. Many crop genes can influence multiple traits (特征), sometimes in good ways and sometimes in bad ones. For example, ____62____rice gene might increase the number of flowers but weaken the stems (茎) if it’s too active. Current gene-editing relies on tiring, blind trial and error. DeepWheat offers a better alternative: systems that enable researchers to keep ____63____ (run) computer simulations (模拟) for testing all possible gene changes let them spot useful adjustments before real experiments, improving precision and saving effort.
Successfully ____64____ (test) in rice and corn, the tool has proved effective for many crops. It identifies key parts, improves editing targets, and solves a farming bottleneck — when improving one trait weakens another. By making better gene networks, DeepWheat reduces such trade-offs, speeds up good trait combination, and serves ____65____ a practical AI solution for developing high-quality crops.

话题:人工智能驱动的高精度作物基因功能预测与智能育种
文章大意:本文主要讲述了一个中国研究团队开发的深度学习工具DeepWheat,其作用、原理及应用效果。
【解析】
56.考查定语从句关系词。句意:一个中国研究团队开发了一种名为DeepWheat的深度学习工具,它可以帮助植物种植者高度准确地预测决定植物特征的部分。空处引导非限制性定语从句,先行词是DeepWheat,指物,在从句中作主语,所以空处需用关系代词which。故填which。
57.考查名词。句意:一个中国研究团队开发了一种名为DeepWheat的深度学习工具,它可以帮助植物种植者高度准确地预测决定植物特征的部分。with high accuracy为固定短语,意为“高度准确地”,所以空处需用名词accuracy。故填accuracy。
58.考查副词。句意:这是非常有用的,因为像小麦这样的作物有一套非常庞大的遗传物质——大约是水稻的40倍,是人类基因组大小的5倍。空处需用副词作状语修饰形容词large,remarkable的副词为remarkably“非常,极其”。故填remarkably。
59.考查形容词比较级。句意:这是非常有用的,因为像小麦这样的作物有一套非常庞大的遗传物质——大约是水稻的40倍,是人类基因组大小的5倍。根据空后than可知,空处需用形容词big的比较级bigger“更大的”。故填bigger。
60.考查非谓语动词。句意:为了解决这种复杂性,该团队将两个核心模型集成到一个工具中。本句已有谓语动词built,且空处没有连词,所以空处需用非谓语动词;结合句意可知,空处需用动词不定式作目的状语,句首首字母需大写。故填To address。
61.考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意:DeepWheat可以找出改变基因如何影响植物,并清楚地预测这些变化。结合前文的can find out可知,本句陈述事实,句子需用一般现在时态,how引导宾语从句的主语是动名词短语changing genes,谓语动词应用第三人称单数形式。故填affects。
62.考查冠词。句意:例如,一个水稻基因可能会增加花的数量,但如果它过于活跃,就会削弱茎。此处表示泛指一个水稻基因,所以空处需用不定冠词a/an,rice是以辅音音素开头的单词,所以空处需用不定冠词a。故填a。
63.考查非谓语动词。句意:DeepWheat提供了一个更好的选择:让研究人员持续运行计算机模拟来测试所有可能的基因变化的系统,让他们在实际实验之前发现有用的调整,提高精度并节省精力。keep doing sth.为固定搭配,意为“持续做某事”,所以空处需用动名词running。故填running。
64.考查非谓语动词。句意:该工具在水稻和玉米上成功测试后,已被证明对许多作物有效。本句已有谓语动词has proved,且空处没有连词,所以空处需用非谓语动词;由空后“in rice and corn”可知,空处动词与其逻辑主语the tool之间是被动关系,所以空处需用过去分词tested作状语,句首首字母需大写。故填Tested。
65.考查介词。句意:通过构建更好的基因网络,DeepWheat减少了这种权衡,加速了优良性状的组合,并作为一种实用的AI解决方案,用于开发高品质作物。serve as为固定短语,意为“充当,担任”,所以空处需用介词as。故填as。

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。
The ancient oak tree in the school courtyard served as the traditional “memories bank”. On the final day of senior year, students gathered to bury time capsules - letters to their future selves. Mia stood among them, clutching her sealed envelope with a heavy heart. Unlike others filled with hopes and dreams, hers contained a painful confession (忏悔) she had carried for three long years.
Her mind flashed back to the science lab, where her curiosity had led to disaster. Reaching for the school’s antique microscope, she accidentally knocked it from the table. It broke into two parts. She quickly picked them up and put them together. At this moment, the door opened revealing Ben, a quiet classmate, with Mr. Davies behind him. Ben came to fetch the microscope for an experiment. Hardly had he touched the microscope when it split into two parts.
To Mia’s astonishment, Ben quietly claimed responsibility. “I was moving it and it slipped,” he murmured, accepting the teacher’s disappointment that should have been hers. Mia watched in guilty silence as he bore the blame she deserved.
Now, watching Ben place his own letter in the hole and offer her a sad smile, Mia held the envelope tightly in her hand. The breeze rustled the oak leaves like whispering voices. She looked from the freshly dug earth to Ben’s figure, wondering if burying her truth was truly how she wanted to end her high school story.
注意:1. 续写词数应为150词左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Just as the dirt was about to cover the capsules, Mia suddenly stepped forward.

高分范文
Just as the dirt was about to cover the capsules, Mia suddenly stepped forward. She raised her hand to stop the others, her eyes fixed on Ben. With a shaky voice, she told the story of the science lab incident—how she’d knocked over the antique microscope, how Ben had silently taken the blame, and the guilt that had haunted her ever since. As she spoke, her gaze never left Ben’s, and tears glistened in her eyes. The courtyard grew quiet, with only the rustle of oak leaves accompanying her words.
After telling the truth, Mia felt a light tap on her shoulder. She turned to see Ben, his previous sadness replaced by a calm expression. “I’ve waited three years to hear you say that,” he said softly. Mia felt the weight in her chest lift instantly, a wave of relief washing over her. She smiled back at Ben, then bent down to place her envelope into the hole—no longer carrying regret, but the peace of finally telling the truth.
文章大意:本文以校园橡树“记忆银行”埋时光胶囊为线索展开,讲述了Mia在毕业埋胶囊时,坦白三年前碰坏显微镜、让Ben担责的往事,最终获得释然与Ben的谅解的故事。

(原创)The IB Middle Years Program (MYP) at Canadian International School of Hefei
The International Baccalaureate Middle Years Program (IB MYP) at the Canadian International School of Hefei (CISH) is a five-year program for students aged 11 to 16. It is a key part of the IB educational continuum, designed to prepare students for future academic studies and real-world challenges.
Program Focus & Structure
Going beyond a traditional curriculum, the MYP emphasizes all-round development through eight subject groups. The core of its educational approach is the “Approaches to Learning” (ATL) framework. This framework systematically helps students develop skills in five critical areas: thinking, communication, social interaction, self-management, and research.
Key Benefits
·Real-World Connections: Students learn to apply classroom knowledge to real-life situations and to develop intercultural awareness.
·Personalized Support: Each student is seen as unique. Teaching methods are tailored to individual learning styles to build confidence and promote growth, moving away from comparing students with one another.
·Service as Action: Through community service projects, students link their academic learning to practical action and reflect on their social responsibilities.
Why CISH?
CISH is the only school in Anhui Province authorized to offer the full IB continuum (Primary Years, Middle Years, and Diploma Programs). This allows for a coherent and globally recognized educational pathway from primary through high school.
21. What is highlighted as the central element of the MYP's educational approach?
A. Mastering eight compulsory subjects in depth.
B. A skill-development framework known as ATL.
C. Covering all academic areas through eight subject groups.
D. Focusing primarily on language and mathematical skills.
22. How does the MYP program deal with different learners?
A. By ranking students to motivate improvement.
B. By applying a standardized teaching model to ensure fairness.
C. By fitting teaching to personal learning styles.
D. By providing extra help in their least proficient subjects first.
23. What makes CISH special according to the text?
A. Its exclusive focus on preparing for the IB Diploma Program.
B. Its authorization to offer the prestigious IB Diploma Program.
C. Its commitment to securing university admission for graduates.
D. Its ability to offer all IB programs.

When Michelle Jackson retired at 56, she felt as if a door had suddenly closed. After decades as an engineer designing high-speed trains for British Rail, the once-busy rhythm of meetings, deadlines, and projects was gone. The silence that followed felt heavier than she had expected. “What am I going to do now?” she asked herself, faced with long days and too much quiet time.
Luckily, five years later, she found her answer. At 61, Michelle picked up her first camera, determined to learn something entirely new. As a beginner, she joined a local walking and photography group, often spending hours outdoors experimenting with settings she barely understood at first. She also signed up for online courses in photography and Photoshop, insisting, “If I’m going to do something, I’ll do it properly.”
Michelle always loved nature. In her twenties, she hiked long distances such as the 268-mile Pennine Way in northern England. Yet back then, she never thought of bringing a camera. Only after retirement did she realize that photography could preserve what had always touched her: the quiet wonder of wild places and animals.
Her hearing loss, which once pushed her into retirement, has sharpened her vision. She notes that the weakening of one sense can strengthen another. This heightened perception, coupled with great patience, allows her to tolerate long waits in nature — whether for seabirds to form a heart with their heads or for a deer to enter the twilight.
Now in her mid-60s, Michelle has won national and international awards. She spends at least 20 hours a week in the field, hiding under nets for cover or lying in wet grass, always ready for the excitement of the unexpected. Yet for her, success is not measured by awards. “Each time I see an animal appear,” she says, “my heart races. If you truly seek them, you will find them.”
24. What pushed Michelle to take up photography?
A. Her interest in online courses.
B. Her sudden hearing loss.
C. Her emptiness after retirement.
D. Her thirst for expanding her social circle.
25. How does hearing loss influence Michelle?
A. It enhances her ability to see.
B. It causes her lots of problems in daily life.
C. It enriches her knowledge about wild animals.
D. It deepens her understanding of human-nature relationship.
26. What does Michelle probably think of the awards she has earned?
A. They have helped her gain wide recognition.
B. They bring motivation for her to keep taking photos.
C. They fail to compare with the joy of spotting wild animals.
D. They are a silent witness to her progress in photography.
27. What message does Michelle’s story deliver?
A. Well begun is half done. B. Age is no limit to passion.
C. Nature is the best medicine. D. Failure is the mother of success.

Dark chocolate, mainly solid cocoa, is widely believed to be a healthier treat, often credited with benefits like lowering blood pressure and boosting brainpower. These claims are largely linked to flavanols (黄烷醇), compounds abundant in cocoa. However, a closer look at the scientific evidence suggests that we should be careful about eating dark chocolate.
While some short-term studies, frequently funded by chocolate companies, suggested potential advantages, their results have been inconsistent. More importantly, they are too brief to reveal the long-term effects of regular consumption. Observational studies, which simply note correlations (相关性), found that people who eat more dark chocolate tend to be healthier. But this could be because they often have higher incomes and better overall lifestyles, not because of the chocolate itself.
To settle the debate, a big randomized experiment was conducted. It involved older adults who took daily cocoa-flavanol supplements for several years. The findings were clear: the flavanols made no significant difference to the risk of developing heart disease, diabetes, or cancer. There was one positive note — a reduction in cardiovascular (心血管的) deaths — but this single outcome is not solid proof of benefit.
Crucially, obtaining a high share of flavanols from commercial dark chocolate introduces serious disadvantages. To counter cocoa’s bitterness, manufacturers add large amounts of sugar. It means a person would also consume a substantial portion of the daily recommended limit of fat, which is known to raise cholesterol (胆固醇) and harm heart health. A far healthier way to get flavanols is from foods like apples, nuts, strawberries, or green tea.
Ultimately, the celebrated health benefits of dark chocolate appear to be rooted more in marketing and wishful thinking than in robust science. While enjoying it as an occasional treat is fine, relying on it as a health food is misguided. True wellness comes from a balanced diet rich in various fruits, vegetables, and beans—not from a single, sugary treat.
28. What is a common belief about dark chocolate?
A. It has inconsistent benefits. B. Its benefits come at a high cost.
C. It contributes to physical health. D. Its advantages rely on long-term intake.
29. What is a result of taking in flavanols from dark chocolate?
A. Faster fat burning. B. Resistance to cholesterol.
C. Reduction of cancer risks. D. Increase in sugar consumption.
30. What does the underlined word “robust” in the last paragraph mean?
A. Basic. B. Solid. C. Advanced. D. Emerging.
31. Which is the best title for the text?
A. The Bitter Truth About Dark Chocolate B. A Guide to Choosing Healthy Chocolate
C. The Impact of Flavanols on Your Health D. Marketing vs. Science in the Food Industry

(新情景)A study has found that verbal abuse or hurtful words in childhood may be as damaging to long-term mental well-being as physical abuse, if not more so. This groundbreaking research highlights the need to treat verbal abuse as a serious public health issue that comes with lasting psychological consequences.
Research led by Liverpool John Moores University has drawn on the data of 20,687 adults from England and Wales. In the survey, participants were asked about their exposure to physical and/or verbal abuse before the age of 18. Then current mental health markers were assessed using a mental well-being scale, which factors in optimism, relaxation, social connection and coping skills. The survey asked participants how often they felt optimistic about the future, useful and relaxed.
What the researchers found was that those who experienced verbal abuse as children were 1.64 times more likely to report poor mental well-being as adults. Meanwhile, individuals exposed to physical abuse were 1.52 times more likely to have mental health problems later in life, and those who experienced both verbal and physical maltreatment were 2.15 times more likely to have negative mental health outcomes.
There’s a growing body of evidence that demonstrates how verbal abuse in childhood has long- term impacts. It’s often viewed as less harmful than other forms of maltreatment. The researchers found that while physical abuse had decreased — from around 20.2% of children born in the 1970s to 10% of those born in 2000 or later — verbal abuse has increased. This study found that those who experienced this in their youth had nearly double the likelihood of social isolation.
There remains an urgent need for greater measures to prevent physical abuse. Verbal abuse may not immediately manifest in ways that catch the attention of bystanders, clinicians, or others in supporting services. The researchers emphasize that this study doesn’t downplay the long- term harm of physical abuse, but it highlights the need to better consider verbal maltreatment when it comes to both child protection policies and mental health treatment in adults who have experienced this trauma.
32. What did the survey in paragraph 2 focus on?
A. Adult abuse experiences.
B. Social connection in childhood.
C. Current physical health markers.
D. Childhood abuse and adult mental health.
33. How does the author present the issue in paragraph 3?
A. By presenting comparative research data. B. By introducing the study’s background.
C. By explaining research methodology. D. By proposing policy solutions.
34. What change in abuse patterns did researchers note?
A. Physical abuse increased since 2000.
B. Verbal abuse decreased significantly.
C. Verbal abuse rose while physical abuse declined.
D. Both types dropped among newer generations.
35. What is the best title for the text?
A. Physical abuse prevention strategies
B. Verbal abuse’s lasting adult impact
C. Survey methods in psychology research
D. Improving childhood mental health policies

(原创)The Benefits of Power Naps
Winston Churchill swore by them. After polishing off a boozy lunch and a cigar the former British prime minister would climb into bed for an afternoon nap. The last part of his regime may be worth imitating.
____36____A randomised controlled trial in 2023 found that nappers woke up with improvements to mood, alertness and memory. Napping habitually might also be wise. A study from 2007 found that healthy adults who took regular naps had a 37% lower risk of dying from heart disease.
____37____Sleep scientists tend to agree that a short “power” nap, somewhere between ten and 30 minutes, is best. For example, in 1994 NASA found that a 26-minute power nap enhanced pilots’ performance. Sleep for too long and you enter deeper sleep phases and wake up feeling groggy. ____38____A meta-analysis in 2016 concluded that daily naps lasting more than an hour increased the risk of developing diabetes.
Some sleep experts contend that humans are biologically disposed to nap. They point to a natural dip in alertness after midday. ____39____ In cultures where this is common, however, nappers must still rest at night for the recommended seven hours.
Coffee is a popular antidote to midday drowsiness. ____40____A study published in 2008 found power naps to be more effective than caffeine at improving alertness and memory.
“The rest in the middle of the day”, Churchill wrote, “refresh the human frame far more than a long night.” Modern sleep experts might not go so far. But if you have time for a catnap, it could do you some good. Just remember to set an alarm.
A. However, the duration of your nap is critical.
B. This natural dip in alertness makes a brief daytime sleep appealing.
C. Sleeping during the day is not just for shift workers and cats.
D. Moreover, studies show such short naps do not harm nighttime sleep quality.
E. Therefore, office workers should be encouraged to take naps during lunch breaks.
F. Taking longer naps on a regular basis could even have negative health effects.
G. But research suggests a short nap might be a more effective solution.

One day, Lavonne Schaafsma spent a few hours in Millennium Park, people-watching. On the way back to her car, as she____41____for her keys, she realized her purse was missing. She started to ____42____, because her purse held her ID, credit cards and hundreds of dollars in cash.
Lavonne retraced every____43____, searching for over an hour. Finally, she stopped in front of a gift shop. She had no real____44____to believe her purse would be there, but she walked in anyway and asked the cashier if anyone had____45____a black purse. The cashier’s eyes____46____. Someone had. Tears of____47____filled Schaafsma’s eyes instantly.
The cashier said that about half an hour earlier two women had come into the shop. They ____48____the purse on a bench near the store, but they noticed a man rifling (翻找) through it — and immediately became____49____.
The women____50____him and asked if the purse was his. He mumbled (含糊地说) that it was, but they didn’t buy it. So they did something bold: they ___51___the purse was theirs and took it back.
The women then brought the purse to the shop and____52____waited for about half an hour to see if the owner would return, but when no one appeared, they____53____the purse with the cashier.
“These women who I don’t know saved me hours of work____54____credit cards. They____55____me from massive anxiety,” Schaafsma said. “The story restores my faith in everyday heroes.”

阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
(热点话题)A Chinese research team has developed a deep-learning tool called DeepWheat, ____56____ can help plant growers to predict the parts that decide plant features with high ____57____ (accurate). It uses AI to accurately predict how genes work in different plant parts and types of crops. This is very useful because crops like wheat have a ____58____ (remarkable) large set of genetic materials — about 40 times ____59____ (big) than rice’s, and five times the size of humans’.
____60____ (address) this complexity, the team built two core models into one tool. DeepWheat can find out how changing genes ____61____ (affect) plants and predict these changes clearly. Many crop genes can influence multiple traits (特征), sometimes in good ways and sometimes in bad ones. For example, ____62____rice gene might increase the number of flowers but weaken the stems (茎) if it’s too active. Current gene-editing relies on tiring, blind trial and error. DeepWheat offers a better alternative: systems that enable researchers to keep ____63____ (run) computer simulations (模拟) for testing all possible gene changes let them spot useful adjustments before real experiments, improving precision and saving effort.
Successfully ____64____ (test) in rice and corn, the tool has proved effective for many crops. It identifies key parts, improves editing targets, and solves a farming bottleneck — when improving one trait weakens another. By making better gene networks, DeepWheat reduces such trade-offs, speeds up good trait combination, and serves ____65____ a practical AI solution for developing high-quality crops.

The Students’ Union
第二节(满分25分)
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。
The ancient oak tree in the school courtyard served as the traditional “memories bank”. On the final day of senior year, students gathered to bury time capsules - letters to their future selves. Mia stood among them, clutching her sealed envelope with a heavy heart. Unlike others filled with hopes and dreams, hers contained a painful confession (忏悔) she had carried for three long years.
Her mind flashed back to the science lab, where her curiosity had led to disaster. Reaching for the school’s antique microscope, she accidentally knocked it from the table. It broke into two parts. She quickly picked them up and put them together. At this moment, the door opened revealing Ben, a quiet classmate, with Mr. Davies behind him. Ben came to fetch the microscope for an experiment. Hardly had he touched the microscope when it split into two parts.
To Mia’s astonishment, Ben quietly claimed responsibility. “I was moving it and it slipped,” he murmured, accepting the teacher’s disappointment that should have been hers. Mia watched in guilty silence as he bore the blame she deserved.
Now, watching Ben place his own letter in the hole and offer her a sad smile, Mia held the envelope tightly in her hand. The breeze rustled the oak leaves like whispering voices. She looked from the freshly dug earth to Ben’s figure, wondering if burying her truth was truly how she wanted to end her high school story.
注意:1. 续写词数应为150词左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Just as the dirt was about to cover the capsules, Mia suddenly stepped forward.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
After telling the truth, Mia felt a light tap on her shoulder.
