Dear Alex,
I'm glad to hear about your idea of starting a video account on Chinese and Western food.I
think this topic will be quite popular because food is something everyone enjoys,and many people
are curious about dishes from different cultures.Your videos can help viewers learn more about
cooking styles and cultural traditions.
To make your channel more attractive,you could compare similar dishes from the East and
the West,share easy recipes,or show short clips of you trying new food.Adding interesting stories
behind the dishes will also catch viewers'attention.
I hope my advice helps.Looking forward to your first video!
Yours,
Li Hua

Mary hesitated for a moment,and then turned to her mom.She asked if she could sing for the
baby.Mom smiled and nodded in agreement.Encouraged,Mary gently asked the mother if she
could sing for the baby.The mother,clearly exhausted after trying everything she could,nodded

gratefully.Mary took a deep breath and began to sing.Her voice was soft and gentle at first,like a
whisper carried on the gentle wind,which gradually growing stronger and more confident.The
song was simple yet engaging.She sang of sunshine and dreams,which was easy to catch.
Slowly,the baby's cries sofiened.Her little body relaxed as Mary's gentle voice filled the air.
The song was simple,yet it seemed to weave a calming spell over the cabin.The baby stopping
crying and the air filled with comforting song,other passengers,who had been restless,began to
quiet down,drawn into the soothing melody.The mother's tense expression eased,and she gave
Mary a grateful smile.As the song reached its end,everyone clapped with cheers,which turned
the boring and annoying delay into a musical feast.Mary's mom leaned over and whispered,"You
did it again,lifting all our spirits."

We were sailing on a white boat through the clear waters of Turks and Caicos.The view was so
beautiful that even my teenage daughter,Kavya,paused her usual rudeness to admire the scenery and
breathe in the salty air.
Instead of relaxing by the pools,we had spent the previous day training for our big scuba()
trip.We took a course with written tests and did two exhausting pool practices.Now,the moment had
arrived.Our instructor was about to place the helmets (on our heads.I took a deep breath.This
was it-my chance to connect with Kavya through a new experience,something we could finally
share.
But suddenly,Kavya pulled my arm.Her face showed the same worried look she had during math
homework.I could sense her emotions tightening under her diving suit.Just as the instructor
approached,she whispered,"Dad,can I quit?"The waves sounded louder,the gear (heavier.
Surprisingly,I didn't say what I normally would:"Quitting is not an option!"I even stopped myself
from thinking,"But this was my plan."Trying to give her a gentle hug in the heavy gear only resulted
in me splashing water all over her and making us both laugh awkwardly.
When she was little,connecting with Kavya was effortless.I knew everything about her,and she
always joined my adventures with pure excitement.But as she grew older,she discovered her own
interests,drifting away from mine.What followed were sighs,eye-rolls,and half-hearted"I guess so"
replies.I had hoped this scuba course would bring us closer again.I didn't expect her quitting to hit
me so hard or so suddenly.
Even without the dive,we enjoyed our vacation.We swam,collected seashells,and played word
games.In those slow,quiet moments,I realized joy isn't only in big adventures.It wasn't the moment
of closeness I had imagined-but it turned out to be exactly the one we needed.
24.Why did the author train hard for the diving trip?

Today,with the help of AI tools,anyone can instantly generate impressive architectural images.
Yet this raises a serious question for architects:if technology lowers the technical barrier,what remains
the true value of design?The answer,many experts believe,lies in deeper philosophical thinking.
Architecture is not only about structure.It also reflects how humans understand life.This
understanding begins with the individual-how a building can shape people's emotions.It then
extends to the community-whether a neighborhood design brings people together or drives them
apart.Ultimately,it touches upon time itself-how to balance the preservation of historical identity
with the need for change.In many cities,preserving every old structure,no matter its function or
relevance,has become something of a sacred cow,admired by all but discussed by few.Yet true
architectural philosophy requires us to ask whether preserving everything always serves the
community's best interest.
AI can copy thousands of design styles,but it cannot make value judgments.It does not know why,
for instance,a library in Colombia places its reading rooms-not offices-in the brightest and
highest spaces:a design choice symbolizing equality.As scholar Nayef Al-Rodhan points out,"good
design should possess valuable qualities,including fairness,inclusion,and safety,which cannot be
outsourced to AI.”
In the future,the best architects may not be those who master AI tools,but those who master
philosophical reflection.Saudi Arabia's planned city"The Line"is one such example.Its design is not
only technological but also philosophical-it asks whether humans can create a sustainable city that
allows people to live in harmony with nature.By turning a traditional city into a single vertical
)line,it challenges our deepest assumptions about urban life.
Freed from repetitive drafting work,architects in the age of AI must think more deeply about
humanity,community,and sustainability.The great designs of the future will emerge where technology
meets philosophy,not where one replaces the other.
28.What is the main function of paragraph 2 in the passage?
A.To introduce examples of modern cities.
B.To compare architecture with philosophy.
C.To describe how AI will change construction.
D.To present architecture from a philosophical view.
29.What can we learn from the example of the library in Colombia?
A.Great design is human-centered.
B.AI will reshape public buildings.
C.The best design feels almost invisible.
D.Equality is the core of modern design.
30.Which of the following best describes the nature of"The Line"?
A.A philosophy-guided theory.
B.An eco-friendly city project.
C.A social-welfare housing plan.
D.An economically-driven design.
31.According to the passage,what should architects do in the age of AI?
A.Shift from drawing to building.
B.Bring soul and meaning to designs.
C.Employ AI as a powerful co-pilot.
D.Prioritize philosophy over function.

In a world overflowing with information,it may seem odd that people often go out of their way
not to learn something.Whether it's skipping a follow-up doctor's appointment or refusing to read an
unsettling news article,this tendency has a name:the "Ostrich (Effect,"just like the bird
supposedly burying its head in the sand.Researchers at the University of Chicago set out to understand
when and why this occurs.
In one experiment,children aged from 5 to 10 were asked to imagine their favorite and least
favorite candy.Then came the choice:Would they like to watch a video about why eating that candy
was bad for their teeth?Children at the age of 5 or 6 wanted to know-good or bad,the information
itself was exciting.Older children,however,hesitated.They were much less interested in hearing about
the downsides of their favorite treat,though they had no problem learning why their least favorite
candy was bad.
So why do children transform from fearless learners into strategic avoiders?The answer lies in
emotions.Information is not neutral ()-it often carries consequences for how we feel.News
about our health,abilities,or beliefs can trigger disappointment,anxiety,or shame.By avoiding
knowledge,people protect themselves,at least in the short term,from negative emotions.
Sparing ourselves from distress can be protective,yet when avoidance becomes habitual,the costs
can outweigh the benefits.At a personal level,refusing to learn important medical information can
endanger health.At a societal level,avoidance may entrench political divides or rigid beliefs.When
people deliberately tune out perspectives that challenge their worldview,they lose opportunities for
growth,understanding,and connection.
At its core,the Ostrich Effect reveals something deeply human.We are curious creatures,but also
fragile ones.We want to know,yet we fear what knowing might mean.This push and pull shapes our
decisions every day.This is why researchers stress the importance of teaching children not only to
embrace curiosity,but also to develop resilience (and always grab the chance to learn,adapt,
and succeed.
32.Which of the following shows the"Ostrich Effect"?
A.A student actively seeks feedback from teachers.
B.A woman turns a blind eye to her credit card bills.
C.A boy refuses to attend his cousin's birthday party.
D.An employee buries himself in research and data analysis.
33.Why does the“Ostrich Effect'”occur'?
A.It blocks out distractions.
B.It keeps us from feeling bad.
C.It helps us see things positively.
D.It encourages independent thinking.
34.What does the underlined word"entrench"in paragraph 4 mean?
A.Expose.
B.Remove.
C.Deepen.
D.Transform.
35.Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?
A.Why Not Knowing Can Seem So Sweet
B.Why Embracing Curiosity Truly Matters
C.The Ostrich Effect:Comfort is the Best Option
D.From Candy to Curiosity:The Evolution of Resilience

From the moment humankind first closed its eyes and slipped into the shifting landscapes of sleep,
dreams have haunted (and fascinated us.At night,images rise uninvited:loved ones long gone,
gods who speak in riddles,beasts both feared and admired,and journeys across impossible places.
_36They were messages,and visions-a secret language whispered by the universe to the soul.
In ancient China,the Zhou Li (Rites of Zhou)and other classical texts describe dream
interpretation as a means to predict the future.Dreams were believed to reveal disturbances in the
balance of yin and yang,or it could signal harmony restored.For example,a dream of flowing water
might symbolize life's continuity.37
One of the most famous dream passages in Chinese philosophy comes from Zhuangzi.He once
dreamed he was a butterfly.Upon waking,he questioned whether he was a man who dreamed he was
a butterfly or a butterfly now dreaming he was a man.38 It vividly captured the Chinese view
of dreams as a space which is a mix of reality and illusion )
_39 Researchers in neuroscience explain dreams as patterns of brain activity,memory
processing,and emotional regulation.REM(rapid eye movement)sleep,where most vivid dreaming
occurs,is now understood as crucial for learning and psychological balance.Sigmund Freud suggested
dreams were wish-fulfillments;Carl Jung saw them as messages from the collective unconscious.
Though modernity explains dreams with science,it cannot remove their poetic charm.We are still
dreamers,still seekers,still interpreters of the night's riddles.40 We walk with gods,with
ancestors,with the timeless mysteries of existence.
A.This dream has been retold for centuries.
B.Likewise,broken objects could warn of trouble.
C.To the ancients,dreams were never meaningless.
D.How dreams are interpreted varies from culture to culture.
E.Today,science throws light on the distinct roles of dreams.
F.The ancients remind us that even in sleep,we are not alone.
G.Dreams are inspirations that prepare us for real-life challenges.

Last spring,I was waiting to hear from my editors about my second novel.I was so 41 that

I began to 49 every detail of the flower as my pencil moved across the paper.After two
hours flew by,my phone 50,I completed a drawing,simple and even 51 in parts.Bad
as it was,it gave me the best feeling.I had entered what psychologists call a flow state:an experience
where time 52,attention deepens,and anxiety gives way to 53
I kept going back to the class.I drew not to be good,but to 54
-to find focus and feel
creative.As my drawings grew more alive,I understood there is no good art without bad art,and my

The airport announcement informed passengers that due to bad weather,the flight would be
delayed for two hours before boarding.Mary's mom commented quietly that the delay seemed to have
ruined everyone's mood.But eleven-year-old Mary stayed calm,softly humming()a new song she
had just learned.She was looking forward to the weekend trip to visit her grandparents,excited to
share the song with them.
To her,music was like an invisible string that could tie strangers together,creating a warm
community.She remembered the first time she had felt this connection:at six years old,waiting for
the bus with her mom on a hot,boring day.Then a cheerful tune came from a store loudspeaker-a
song about a girl and her dreams:
"Dreams of sunshine and fields of gold,
Where the heart is never old,
Singing songs that never end,
In a world that's my best friend..."
Without thinking,Mary sang along-her voice soft and gentle at first,like a whisper carried on
the gentle wind,which gradually growing stronger and more confident.The melody was simple yet
engaging.Time passed without her noticing.When the bus arrived,passengers smiled;an old man beat
his walking stick to the beat.As the doors closed,everyone was humming.Mom whispered to her,
"You just lifted all our spirits."Nothing seemed better than music for calming a restless heart,and
Mary remembered that.
After boarding the plane,the passengers were told of another weather delay-at least another 45
minutes.The cabin (grew tense with restless movements and complaints.
Then a sudden cry cut through the air.Across the aisle (to Mary's left,a tiny girl,barely
three years old,began to cry.Her mother tried everything-rocking her,offering snacks,water,toys
-but nothing worked.The child's face was wet with tears,her cries loud and broken.Passengers
shifted uncomfortably in their seats as the crying filled the cabin.
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。
Paragraph 1:Mary hesitated for a moment,and then turned to her mom.
