For the entire semester of my senior physics class, a quiet mystery unfolded daily. It wasn’t the complex laws on the board that ultimately stayed with me, but the consistent ten minutes of silence before each lecture began. Mr. Davies, known for his energetic and engaging teaching style, would enter the room, place his notes on the desk, and then simply sit. His gaze, often directed out the window at a towering pine tree, seemed distant. A cup of tea steamed and then cooled beside him, untouched.
We, a group of typically restless seventeen-year-olds, initially fidgeted (躁动), whispered, and wondered. Was he tired? Disappointed in us? Daydreaming? As weeks passed, a gradual change occurred. The whispered questions died down. The restless movements still. Without a single word of instruction, the room learned to settle into a collective, respectful quiet. It became a strange, shared routine. I came to see it as his personal preparation time, a teacher’s brief mental shift from the chaos (混乱) of the world to the order of science.
The truth, however, was far more serious and remained hidden for years. I learned it only at a class reunion, a decade later, from an old colleague of his. That very year, Mr. Davies’ wife had been battling a severe, long-term illness. Those silent minutes were not for preparation, but for preservation — his only private moment to gather enough strength to face us, to perform the role of the lively teacher we all expected. He neither mentioned it nor let the shadow cross his classroom doorway.
Yet in that unspoken, shared space, he taught a lesson more profound than any curriculum could contain. We had unknowingly witnessed quiet dignity, the immense strength required to bear personal burdens while faithfully fulfilling one’s duties. The classroom, I realized, had held not just a teacher of physics, but a man teaching, through simple example, the weight and grace of adulthood.
24. Why is Mr. Davies described as still and distant?
A. To reflect his lack of focus on teaching. B. To show his fading enthusiasm for teaching.
C. To highlight his vivid teaching style. D. To suggest his unspoken personal hardship.
25. What does the underlined word “It” in paragraph 2 refer to?
A. The process of calming down into silence. B. The period of mental preparation.
C. The change in students’ behaviour. D. The brief verbal instruction.
26. How does the author feel about Mr. Davies?
A Curious about his strange behaviour. B. Respectful of his powerful quiet.
C. Astonished by his self-control. D. Sympathetic toward his personal hardship.
27. What does the story show?
A. A teacher’s unprepared curriculum. B. A misunderstanding cleared up years later.
C. The hidden strength in silence. D. The uncovered mystery in physics class.
C
We already know how watching other people’s lives on social media can negatively affect our self-esteem (自尊) and satisfaction with our own lives. Apparently, using apps to track your own calories or fitness activities can have a similar effect. New research from scientists at University College London (UCL) suggests that fitness apps can actually become major demotivators.
The researchers analyzed nearly 60,000 posts on the X platform. This data is particularly valuable because unlike traditional surveys, people tend to share honest, unfiltered (直白真实的) opinions online. The posts included feedback on popular apps. Such as MyFitnessPal. Around 13,000 posts contained negative keywords the researchers tracked — and over half mentioned the calorie-counting app MyFitnessPal.
At first glance, MyFitnessPal seems to offer everything you need to stay on top of your fitness and diet. It allows users to track calorie intake, monitor proteins, and set personalized goals. You can simply import recipes or scan bar codes from food packages — the app will do the rest offering you guidance on what and when to eat. Sounds like working with a personal dietitian.
However, many people are not necessarily that gratified about it. Senior author Dr. PaulinaBondaronek explained, “In these posts, we found a lot of blame and shame, with people feeling they were not doing as well as they should be. These emotional effects may end up harming people’s motivation and health.”
MyFitnessPal is also pretty easy to “fool”, since it’s up to users whether to log or skip a meal. This creates a false sense that if something isn’t recorded in the app. it “didn’t happen”. Many admitted cheating(e. g., not logging a post-dinner cup of ice cream) to feel better, but this only led to more guilt. In some cases, people quit the app and their healthy habits altogether.
It’s important to note the study only analyzed negative posts, so there’s no scientifically proven data on fitness apps’ benefits. However, their harm is hard to ignore. This is a clear wake-up call for developers to consider their products’ unintended consequences.
28. What do we know about MyFitnessPal?
A. It offers comprehensive fitness support. B. It tracks health via exercise data.
C. It automatically logs every meal intake. D. It provides personalized dietitian services.
29. What does the underlined word “gratified” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. Puzzled. B. Satisfied. C. Astonished. D. Concerned.
30. What should app developers do according to the author?
A. highlight the interactivity of apps. B. Make apps more user-friendly to use.
C. Adapt superior technology to track activities. D. Be mindful of apps’ harmful impacts.
31. What is the best title for the text?
A. Social Media vs Fitness Apps B. How to Choose Fitness Apps
C. MyFitnessPal: A Perfect Fitness App D. Fitness Apps: Unexpected Harms
D
In New Jersey’s suburban intersections, an immature Cooper’s hawk (鹰) was at work. It was unfolding a novel hunting strategy that would astonish even seasoned ethologists, which was documented by University of Tennessee researcher Vladimir Dinetes in his study Street smarts: a remarkable adaptation in a city-wintering raptor (猛禽).
Over 18 freezing winter mornings, Dinetes observed from a parked vehicle as birds gathered on the sidewalk to eat food left by residents. In a nearby tree, a young hawk waited, listening for a specific electric sound that signals it’s safe to cross the street. This high tone, tied to a red-light extension from 30 to 90 seconds, meant cars would stretch farther back along the block, forming a dense line. When that line reached a certain point, the hawk would launch an attack, flying low along the sidewalk, hidden by the line of waiting cars. Then it would slip, bursting into the birds’ feeding space and securing an exceptionally high hunting success rate.
Critically, the hawk avoided attacks on weekends when cars didn’t line up sufficiently long to provide a visual barrier. This selectivity proved no accident: The hawk had learned to link the signal sound, traffic patterns and hunting opportunities.
Cooper’s hawks, once restricted to deep woodlands, have inhabited North American cities since the 1970s, but only one urban-adapted behavior — hunting near sunset lights — was previously recorded. Dinetes’ finding adds a far more complex strategy, one that demands mapping environments, tracking time-based clues and carrying out plans.
Dinetes explains, “The hawk doesn’t evolve urban skills anew but uses pre-existing problem-solving ability meant for forest hunts where it measures flight angles and escape paths amid branches. Its forest hunting skill translates into viewing city traffic as branches and crosswalks as tree gaps. This cross-contextual thinking — where a biological instinct is adapted to an artificial landscape — is one of the hallmarks of intelligence in the animal kingdom.”
As cities grow, understanding how animals adapt will be crucial for conservation and coexistence strategies. The study highlights the interplay between wildlife and human environments.
32. What does the author primarily intend to tell us in paragraph 2?
A. Local residents care for birds well. B. Prolonged signal duration causes traffic jam.
C. The hawk is skilled at timing its hunt. D. The hawk tends to launch attacks randomly.
33 Why did the hawk avoid its hunt on weekends?
A. Birds didn’t search for food then. B. Light traffic failed to provide enough cover.
C. Traffic lights were out of function. D. Bystanders interfered with its behavior.
34. What lesson can we learn from the hawk’s cross-contextual thinking?
A. Use available resources strategically. B. A patient heart eats the sweet fruit.
C. Don’t follow others blindly. D. The early bird catches the worm.
35. What kind of writing method is mainly used in the text?
A. Explaining a finding with relevant data. B. Defending a view through an experiment.
C. Presenting a study with specific facts. D. Narrating a story in time order.

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。
Have you ever walked away from a conversation with the sinking feeling that you said too much? Not because you were impolite or inconsiderate — but because you tried to explain yourself to someone who didn’t really want to understand? ____36____
Over-explaining happens often in our daily lives. This behavior originated in early survival strategies. For those raised in emotionally unpredictable households, clarity may be a form of self-protection to prevent punishment or emotional fallout. ____37____ People who have ever undergone trauma tend to explain a lot to avoid conflict or rejection.
Regardless of origin, the pattern is the same: We spend unnecessary energy trying to justify our right to take up space, to say no, or to make choices others might not like. ____38____ Clear language like “I’ve made my decision,” and “Let’s shift the conversation,” can actually do the trick. These direct statements prioritize emotional honesty without over-disclosure. And they don’t leave space for negotiation where none is guaranteed.
____39____ You spend less of it in practicing, defending, or recovering, and you needn’t always react to others’ discomfort. You also start attracting a different kind of relationship. It is based not on performance or submission, but on mutual respect. ____40____ You begin healing the part of you that believed love had to be earned through explanation. The version of you who felt unsafe being misunderstood learns a new truth: Your worth was never conditional or dependent on being agreeable or persuasive.
A. If so, you are not alone.
B. But maybe the biggest shift is internal.
C. Like any behavioral change, this takes practice.
D. But it’s not impossible to rid ourselves of the trouble.
E. When you stop over-explaining, you reclaim emotional energy.
F. Have you ever explained to show your politeness and consideration?
G. Over-explaining can also come from the way our brain is wired by past experiences.

In 2019, I decided to get a job, so I sent my resume to every shop and cafe in my village. Luckily, I was ____41____ an interview at a local restaurant.
The interview went well, but before I left, the manager asked me to try out serving a customer. To my horror, I couldn’t ____42____ a word on the menu. The customer stood impatiently as I froze. Unsurprisingly, I received a ____43____ email the next morning. All my dreams were destroyed.
I was born with poor eyesight. As a child, I struggled to see the board in class, even from the front row. I ____44____ this by copying notes from my friends. As I got older, I buried the secret even more. I ____45____ tried to escape from my poor eyesight.
However, when I got back from that job interview, I made the first step toward dealing with life with a disability — ____46____. From my doctor, I learned that glasses wouldn’t ____47____ and that I would never be allowed to drive. Each new detail felt like a fresh blow. For the first time, I ____48____ my official diagnosis — visual disability. To my surprise, I was filled with ____49____.
The next step was _____50_____ the independence I’d developed over the years. I had to learn to ask for help, something I’d always avoided.
As I started reaching out for help, the love and support of my friends moved me. They _____51_____ my confidence so that I no longer felt _____52_____ to ask for assistance. When I asked strangers to help read cafe menus or cross the road, I was surprised at how kind they were.
Today, I’m much more confident than ever. Though my vision can’t be changed, I treat every _____53_____ as a new challenge. I speak up when something isn’t _____54_____ and ask for adjustments. If I feel shy about my vision, how will over two million people in Britain with sight loss _____55_____? I’m not just speaking up for myself but for the millions like me.

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。
The summer of 2018 changed my life unexpectedly. My parents’ work relocation took us from the bustling city to a quiet mountain town. As a senior high school student who had spent all my life in the urban area, I struggled to adapt — no familiar friends, no favorite cafes, and the slow pace of life made me feel lost and isolated. With no extracurricular activities to join. I often wandered alone in the forest behind our house, a habit I’d developed since childhood to soothe my mood, carrying only a notebook to jot down random thoughts.
Autumn arrived sooner than expected, bringing cool winds and occasional light rains. After a drizzly afternoon, I was walking back home when a faint whimper caught my attention. Following the sound, I found a tiny tabby kitten (小猫) huddled under a maple tree, its fur soaked and matted. It couldn’t have been more than two months old, with one hind leg twisted awkwardly — clearly injured and abandoned. Its big round eyes, filled with fear, stared up at me as it trembled violently. Something stirred in my heart — I, too, felt like a stranger struggling to survive in an unfamiliar place. Without hesitation, I took off my jacket, wrapped it gently around the kitten, and held it close to my chest, hurrying home. That night, I searched online for how to care for injured kittens, cleaned its wound carefully with antiseptic (消毒剂), and made a soft bed with an old sweater in a cardboard box.
The next morning, the kitten seemed a little better. It meowed weakly when I approached, its tail twitching slightly. I fed it warm milk with a small spoon, and to my surprise, it licked the spoon eagerly, then nuzzled my palm with its tiny wet nose. Looking at this fragile yet resilient little creature. I felt a warmth I hadn’t experienced since moving here. I sat by the box for hours, talking to it softly, as if it could understand every word I said.
注意:1.续写词数应为150个左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
“I will take care of you.” I whispered, pressing a gentle kiss on its soft fur.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
At that moment, I realized that as I devoted myself to the kitten’s care, something within me had shifted.

For the entire semester of my senior physics class, a quiet mystery unfolded daily. It wasn’t the complex laws on the board that ultimately stayed with me, but the consistent ten minutes of silence before each lecture began. Mr. Davies, known for his energetic and engaging teaching style, would enter the room, place his notes on the desk, and then simply sit. His gaze, often directed out the window at a towering pine tree, seemed distant. A cup of tea steamed and then cooled beside him, untouched.
We, a group of typically restless seventeen-year-olds, initially fidgeted (躁动), whispered, and wondered. Was he tired? Disappointed in us? Daydreaming? As weeks passed, a gradual change occurred. The whispered questions died down. The restless movements still. Without a single word of instruction, the room learned to settle into a collective, respectful quiet. It became a strange, shared routine. I came to see it as his personal preparation time, a teacher’s brief mental shift from the chaos (混乱) of the world to the order of science.
The truth, however, was far more serious and remained hidden for years. I learned it only at a class reunion, a decade later, from an old colleague of his. That very year, Mr. Davies’ wife had been battling a severe, long-term illness. Those silent minutes were not for preparation, but for preservation — his only private moment to gather enough strength to face us, to perform the role of the lively teacher we all expected. He neither mentioned it nor let the shadow cross his classroom doorway.
Yet in that unspoken, shared space, he taught a lesson more profound than any curriculum could contain. We had unknowingly witnessed quiet dignity, the immense strength required to bear personal burdens while faithfully fulfilling one’s duties. The classroom, I realized, had held not just a teacher of physics, but a man teaching, through simple example, the weight and grace of adulthood.
24. Why is Mr. Davies described as still and distant?
A. To reflect his lack of focus on teaching. B. To show his fading enthusiasm for teaching.
C. To highlight his vivid teaching style. D. To suggest his unspoken personal hardship.
25. What does the underlined word “It” in paragraph 2 refer to?
A. The process of calming down into silence. B. The period of mental preparation.
C. The change in students’ behaviour. D. The brief verbal instruction.
26. How does the author feel about Mr. Davies?
A. Curious about his strange behaviour. B. Respectful of his powerful quiet.
C. Astonished by his self-control. D. Sympathetic toward his personal hardship.
27. What does the story show?
A. A teacher’s unprepared curriculum. B. A misunderstanding cleared up years later.
C. The hidden strength in silence. D. The uncovered mystery in physics class.
【答案】24. D 25. A 26. B 27. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了戴维斯先生沉默背后的个人困境与坚强。

推理判断题。根据第三段中“That very year, Mr. Davies’ wife had been battling a severe, long-term illness. Those silent minutes were not for preparation, but for preservation — his only private moment to gather enough strength to face us, to perform the role of the lively teacher we all expected. (就在那一年,戴维斯先生的妻子一直在与一种严重的长期疾病作斗争。那些沉默的时刻不是为了准备,而是为了保存——他唯一能私下积聚足够力量来面对我们、扮演我们都期望的活跃老师角色的时刻。)”可知,戴维斯先生被描述为安静、心不在焉是为了暗示他未言明的个人困境。故选D。
【25题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段中“As weeks passed, a gradual change occurred. The whispered questions died down. The restless movements still. Without a single word of instruction, the room learned to settle into a collective, respectful quiet. It became a strange, shared routine. (随着时间的推移,逐渐发生了变化。窃窃私语的问题平息了。不安的动作停止了。没有一句口头指示,整个房间学会了安静下来,进入一种集体而尊重的安静状态。它变成了一种奇怪的、共同的惯例。)”可知,it指代的是前文提到的“整个房间学会了安静下来,进入一种集体而尊重的安静状态”这一过程,即冷静下来进入沉默的过程。故选A。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Yet in that unspoken, shared space, he taught a lesson more profound than any curriculum could contain. We had unknowingly witnessed quiet dignity, the immense strength required to bear personal burdens while faithfully fulfilling one’s duties. (然而,在那个没有说出口的、共同的空间里,他教给我们的课程比任何课程都深刻。我们不知不觉地见证了安静的尊严,以及在忠实地履行职责的同时承受个人负担所需的巨大力量。)”可知,作者对戴维斯先生强大的安静表示尊敬。故选B。

C
We already know how watching other people’s lives on social media can negatively affect our self-esteem (自尊) and satisfaction with our own lives. Apparently, using apps to track your own calories or fitness activities can have a similar effect. New research from scientists at University College London (UCL) suggests that fitness apps can actually become major demotivators.
The researchers analyzed nearly 60,000 posts on the X platform. This data is particularly valuable because unlike traditional surveys, people tend to share honest, unfiltered (直白真实的) opinions online. The posts included feedback on popular apps. Such as MyFitnessPal. Around 13,000 posts contained negative keywords the researchers tracked — and over half mentioned the calorie-counting app MyFitnessPal.
At first glance, MyFitnessPal seems to offer everything you need to stay on top of your fitness and diet. It allows users to track calorie intake, monitor proteins, and set personalized goals. You can simply import recipes or scan bar codes from food packages — the app will do the rest offering you guidance on what and when to eat. Sounds like working with a personal dietitian.
However, many people are not necessarily that gratified about it. Senior author Dr. PaulinaBondaronek explained, “In these posts, we found a lot of blame and shame, with people feeling they were not doing as well as they should be. These emotional effects may end up harming people’s motivation and health.”
MyFitnessPal is also pretty easy to “fool”, since it’s up to users whether to log or skip a meal. This creates a false sense that if something isn’t recorded in the app. it “didn’t happen”. Many admitted cheating(e. g., not logging a post-dinner cup of ice cream) to feel better, but this only led to more guilt. In some cases, people quit the app and their healthy habits altogether.
It’s important to note the study only analyzed negative posts, so there’s no scientifically proven data on fitness apps’ benefits. However, their harm is hard to ignore. This is a clear wake-up call for developers to consider their products’ unintended consequences.
28. What do we know about MyFitnessPal?
A. It offers comprehensive fitness support. B. It tracks health via exercise data.
C. It automatically logs every meal intake. D. It provides personalized dietitian services.
29. What does the underlined word “gratified” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. Puzzled. B. Satisfied. C. Astonished. D. Concerned.
30. What should app developers do according to the author?
A. highlight the interactivity of apps. B. Make apps more user-friendly to use.
C. Adapt superior technology to track activities. D. Be mindful of apps’ harmful impacts.
31. What is the best title for the text?
A. Social Media vs Fitness Apps B. How to Choose Fitness Apps
C. MyFitnessPal: A Perfect Fitness App D. Fitness Apps: Unexpected Harms
【答案】28. A 29. B 30. D 31. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要说明了研究发现,健身追踪应用看似能帮助管理饮食与运动,却会让人产生自责与羞愧感,降低动力,甚至带来健康危害。作者提醒开发者应重视这些意外负面影响。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“At first glance, MyFitnessPal seems to offer everything you need to stay on top of your fitness and diet. It allows users to track calorie intake, monitor proteins, and set personalized goals.(乍一看,MyFitnessPal似乎能提供你所需的一切,帮助你保持良好的健身和饮食状态。它能让用户记录每日卡路里摄入量、监测蛋白质摄入量,并设定个性化目标)”可知,MyFitnessPal提供了全面的健身支持。故选A。
【29题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词下文“In these posts, we found a lot of blame and shame(在这些帖子中,我们看到了大量的指责和羞愧之词)”以及however表转折可知,后文说不满意,那么前文应该是满意,故划线词意思是“满意的”。故选B。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“This is a clear wake-up call for developers to consider their products’ unintended consequences.(这无疑给开发者敲响了警钟,促使他们要考虑到自己产品可能产生的意外后果)”可知,应用程序开发者应该留意应用程序可能带来的不良影响。故选D。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“New research from scientists at University College London(UCL) suggests that fitness apps can actually become major demotivators.(伦敦大学学院(UCL)的科学家们开展的新研究指出,健身应用程序实际上可能会成为人们积极性的严重阻碍因素)”结合文章主要说明了研究发现,健身追踪应用看似能帮助管理饮食与运动,却会让人产生自责与羞愧感,降低动力,甚至带来健康危害。作者提醒开发者应重视这些意外负面影响可知,D选项“健身类应用程序:潜在的危害”最符合文章标题。故选D。

In New Jersey’s suburban intersections, an immature Cooper’s hawk (鹰) was at work. It was unfolding a novel hunting strategy that would astonish even seasoned ethologists, which was documented by University of Tennessee researcher Vladimir Dinetes in his study Street smarts: a remarkable adaptation in a city-wintering raptor (猛禽).
Over 18 freezing winter mornings, Dinetes observed from a parked vehicle as birds gathered on the sidewalk to eat food left by residents. In a nearby tree, a young hawk waited, listening for a specific electric sound that signals it’s safe to cross the street. This high tone, tied to a red-light extension from 30 to 90 seconds, meant cars would stretch farther back along the block, forming a dense line. When that line reached a certain point, the hawk would launch an attack, flying low along the sidewalk, hidden by the line of waiting cars. Then it would slip, bursting into the birds’ feeding space and securing an exceptionally high hunting success rate.
Critically, the hawk avoided attacks on weekends when cars didn’t line up sufficiently long to provide a visual barrier. This selectivity proved no accident: The hawk had learned to link the signal sound, traffic patterns and hunting opportunities.
Cooper’s hawks, once restricted to deep woodlands, have inhabited North American cities since the 1970s, but only one urban-adapted behavior — hunting near sunset lights — was previously recorded. Dinetes’ finding adds a far more complex strategy, one that demands mapping environments, tracking time-based clues and carrying out plans.
Dinetes explains, “The hawk doesn’t evolve urban skills anew but uses pre-existing problem-solving ability meant for forest hunts where it measures flight angles and escape paths amid branches. Its forest hunting skill translates into viewing city traffic as branches and crosswalks as tree gaps. This cross-contextual thinking — where a biological instinct is adapted to an artificial landscape — is one of the hallmarks of intelligence in the animal kingdom.”
As cities grow, understanding how animals adapt will be crucial for conservation and coexistence strategies. The study highlights the interplay between wildlife and human environments.
32. What does the author primarily intend to tell us in paragraph 2?
A. Local residents care for birds well. B. Prolonged signal duration causes traffic jam.
C. The hawk is skilled at timing its hunt. D. The hawk tends to launch attacks randomly.
33. Why did the hawk avoid its hunt on weekends?
A. Birds didn’t search for food then. B. Light traffic failed to provide enough cover.
C. Traffic lights were out of function. D. Bystanders interfered with its behavior.
34. What lesson can we learn from the hawk’s cross-contextual thinking?
A. Use available resources strategically. B. A patient heart eats the sweet fruit.
C. Don’t follow others blindly. D. The early bird catches the worm.
35. What kind of writing method is mainly used in the text?
A. Explaining a finding with relevant data. B. Defending a view through an experiment.
C. Presenting a study with specific facts. D. Narrating a story in time order.
【答案】32. C 33. B 34. A 35. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了鹰在城市环境中展现出的复杂狩猎策略及跨情境思维能力。
【32题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段中“When that line reached a certain point, the hawk would launch an attack, flying low along the sidewalk, hidden by the line of waiting cars. Then it would slip, bursting into the birds’ feeding space and securing an exceptionally high hunting success rate.(当车流排到一定长度时,鹰便发起攻击,沿着人行道低空飞行,被排队等候的车辆遮挡。随后它猛冲过去,闯入鸟群觅食区,狩猎成功率极高)”可知,这只鹰非常擅长把握狩猎时机。故选C。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“Critically, the hawk avoided attacks on weekends when cars didn’t line up sufficiently long to provide a visual barrier.(至关重要的是,鹰会避免在周末发动攻击,因为周末车辆没有排成足够长的队来提供视觉屏障)”可知,周末车辆少,无法为鹰提供足够的掩护,所以鹰避免在周末狩猎。故选B。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段“Dinetes explains, ‘The hawk doesn’t evolve urban skills anew but uses pre-existing problem-solving ability meant for forest hunts where it measures flight angles and escape paths amid branches. Its forest hunting skill translates into viewing city traffic as branches and crosswalks as tree gaps. This cross-contextual thinking — where a biological instinct is adapted to an artificial landscape — is one of the hallmarks of intelligence in the animal kingdom.’(迪内特解释说:‘鹰并没有重新进化出城市技能,而是使用了原本用于森林狩猎的预先存在的解决问题的能力,在森林中它会测量树枝间的飞行角度和逃生路径。它的森林狩猎技能转化为将城市交通视为树枝,将人行横道视为树间空隙。这种跨情境思维——将生物本能适应到人工环境中——是动物王国中智力的标志之一。’)”可知,鹰把原本用于森林狩猎的技能转化到城市环境中,也就是有策略地利用现有的资源。故选A。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文,尤其根据第一段“In New Jersey’s suburban intersections, an immature Cooper’s hawk (鹰) was at work. It was unfolding a novel hunting strategy that would astonish even seasoned ethologists, which was documented by University of Tennessee researcher Vladimir Dinetes in his study Street smarts: a remarkable adaptation in a city-wintering raptor (猛禽).(在新泽西州的郊区十字路口,一只尚未成年的库珀鹰正在行动。它展现出一种全新的捕猎策略,就连经验丰富的动物行为学家也会为之惊叹。田纳西大学研究员弗拉基米尔・迪内特斯在其研究《街头智慧:越冬猛禽在城市中的非凡适应能力》中记录了这一现象)”可知,第一段引入一个令人惊奇的研究发现;第二、三段详细描述研究的观察过程和具体事实(如鹰如何利用声音和车流捕猎,为何周末不捕猎);第四段将这一发现与已知的鹰的城市适应行为进行对比,突出其复杂性;第五段引用研究者的解释,阐述其背后的科学原理。整篇文章都是围绕迪内特斯的这项研究展开,用具体的观察事实(如18个早晨的观察、特定的声音、车流长度、成功率等)来呈现这项研究及其意义。所以文章主要是通过具体事实来呈现一项研究。故选C。
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。
Have you ever walked away from a conversation with the sinking feeling that you said too much? Not because you were impolite or inconsiderate — but because you tried to explain yourself to someone who didn’t really want to understand? ____36____
Over-explaining happens often in our daily lives. This behavior originated in early survival strategies. For those raised in emotionally unpredictable households, clarity may be a form of self-protection to prevent punishment or emotional fallout. ____37____ People who have ever undergone trauma tend to explain a lot to avoid conflict or rejection.
Regardless of origin, the pattern is the same: We spend unnecessary energy trying to justify our right to take up space, to say no, or to make choices others might not like. ____38____ Clear language like “I’ve made my decision,” and “Let’s shift the conversation,” can actually do the trick. These direct statements prioritize emotional honesty without over-disclosure. And they don’t leave space for negotiation where none is guaranteed.
____39____ You spend less of it in practicing, defending, or recovering, and you needn’t always react to others’ discomfort. You also start attracting a different kind of relationship. It is based not on performance or submission, but on mutual respect. ____40____ You begin healing the part of you that believed love had to be earned through explanation. The version of you who felt unsafe being misunderstood learns a new truth: Your worth was never conditional or dependent on being agreeable or persuasive.
A. If so, you are not alone.
B. But maybe the biggest shift is internal.
C. Like any behavioral change, this takes practice.
D. But it’s not impossible to rid ourselves of the trouble.
E. When you stop over-explaining, you reclaim emotional energy.
F. Have you ever explained to show your politeness and consideration?
G. Over-explaining can also come from the way our brain is wired by past experiences.
【答案】36. A 37. G 38. D 39. E 40. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章以生活中“对话后因过度解释而不安”的常见场景引入,深入分析了过度解释的起源,随后提出改变过度解释的方法,最后阐述停止过度解释带来的积极影响。
【36题详解】
根据前文“Have you ever walked away from a conversation with the sinking feeling that you said too much? Not because you were impolite or inconsiderate — but because you tried to explain yourself to someone who didn’t really want to understand? (你是否曾在一场对话后离开时,带着一种自己说得太多的不安感?不是因为你无礼或考虑不周——而是因为你试图向一个根本不想理解你的人解释自己?)”引出“过度解释”的话题,可知,此空需回应这种经历是否普遍。A选项“If so, you are not alone. (如果是这样,你并不孤单。)”中“if so”直接承接前文的设问场景,又自然过渡到下文“Over-explaining happens often in our daily life. (过度解释在日常生活中很常见。)”的论述,符合语境。故选A项。
【37题详解】
根据前文“Over-explaining happens often in our daily lives. This behavior originated in early survival strategies. For those raised in emotionally unpredictable households, clarity may be a form of self-protection to prevent punishment or emotional fallout. (过度解释在日常生活中很常见。这种行为源于早期的生存策略。对于在情绪不稳定的家庭中长大的人来说,清晰的解释可能是一种自我保护方式,以防止惩罚或情绪波动。)”可知,前文已提及过度解释的一个起源(早期生存策略与家庭环境),此空需补充其他起源。G选项“Over-explaining can also come from the way our brain is wired by past experiences. (过度解释也可能源于过去经历塑造的我们的大脑思维模式。)”中“also”体现递进关系,补充了“过往经历”这一起源,符合语境。故选G项。
【38题详解】
根据前文“Regardless of origin, the pattern is the same: We spend unnecessary energy trying to justify our right to take up space, to say no, or to make choices others might not like. (无论起源如何,这种模式都是相同的:我们花费不必要的精力,试图证明自己有权利占据空间、说“不”或做出别人可能不喜欢的选择。)”可知,前文指出了过度解释的问题与负面影响,此空需转折并引出解决方法。D选项“But it’s not impossible to rid ourselves of the trouble. (但要摆脱这个困扰并非不可能。)”中“but”形成转折,打破前文“过度解释带来困扰”的负面氛围,“not impossible”传递出“可改变”的积极信号,自然引出后文“Clear language like “I’ve made my decision,” and “Let’s shift the conversation,” can actually do the trick. (像‘我已经做了决定’和‘我们换个话题吧’这样简洁的表达其实能解决问题。)”的具体方法,符合语境。故选D项。
【39题详解】
根据后文“You spend less of it in practicing, defending, or recovering, and you needn’t always react to others’ discomfort. (你会少花精力去练习、辩解或恢复,也不必总是对别人的不适做出反应。)”可知,后文描述的是“停止过度解释”后节省精力的好处,此空需总领该内容。E选项“When you stop over-explaining, you reclaim emotional energy. (当你停止过度解释时,你会重新获得情感能量。)”中“reclaim emotional energy”直接概括了后文“少花精力在辩解、恢复”的核心好处,符合语境。故选E项。
【40题详解】
根据前文“You also start attracting a different kind of relationship. It is based not on performance or submission, but on mutual respect. (你还会开始吸引一种不同类型的关系。这种关系不基于表现或顺从,而是基于相互尊重。)”及后文“You begin healing the part of you that believed love had to be earned through explanation. (你开始疗愈内心那个认为“爱需要通过解释来争取”的部分。)”可知,前文阐述的是停止过度解释带来的“外在关系”变化,后文说明内在变化,故此空需转折并深入到“内在”层面。B选项“But maybe the biggest shift is internal. (但或许最大的改变在于内在。)”符合语境,引起下文。故选B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。
The summer of 2018 changed my life unexpectedly. My parents’ work relocation took us from the bustling city to a quiet mountain town. As a senior high school student who had spent all my life in the urban area, I struggled to adapt — no familiar friends, no favorite cafes, and the slow pace of life made me feel lost and isolated. With no extracurricular activities to join. I often wandered alone in the forest behind our house, a habit I’d developed since childhood to soothe my mood, carrying only a notebook to jot down random thoughts.
Autumn arrived sooner than expected, bringing cool winds and occasional light rains. After a drizzly afternoon, I was walking back home when a faint whimper caught my attention. Following the sound, I found a tiny tabby kitten (小猫) huddled under a maple tree, its fur soaked and matted. It couldn’t have been more than two months old, with one hind leg twisted awkwardly — clearly injured and abandoned. Its big round eyes, filled with fear, stared up at me as it trembled violently. Something stirred in my heart — I, too, felt like a stranger struggling to survive in an unfamiliar place. Without hesitation, I took off my jacket, wrapped it gently around the kitten, and held it close to my chest, hurrying home. That night, I searched online for how to care for injured kittens, cleaned its wound carefully with antiseptic (消毒剂), and made a soft bed with an old sweater in a cardboard box.
The next morning, the kitten seemed a little better. It meowed weakly when I approached, its tail twitching slightly. I fed it warm milk with a small spoon, and to my surprise, it licked the spoon eagerly, then nuzzled my palm with its tiny wet nose. Looking at this fragile yet resilient little creature. I felt a warmth I hadn’t experienced since moving here. I sat by the box for hours, talking to it softly, as if it could understand every word I said.

【答案】
“I will take care of you.” I whispered, pressing a gentle kiss on its soft fur. I named it Maple after the tree where we met. Every morning, I fed it warm milk and cleaned its wound with disinfectant carefully, talking to it softly about my day. Gradually, Maple grew bolder — it would rub against my ankle when I passed by, purr loudly as I stroked its fur, and even chase a feather I dangled in front of it. One week later, it could hop around the room freely, its injured leg fully recovered. Watching it play joyfully, I found myself smiling more often than ever before.
At that moment, I realized that as I devoted myself to the kitten’s care, something within me had shifted. The loneliness and isolation faded away, replaced by a sense of purpose. I started chatting with neighbors about pet care, joined a local animal-loving club, and even volunteered at a small animal shelter. Maple didn’t just need my care — it healed my homesickness and helped me fit into the town. That summer, I learned a precious lesson: companionship, whether between humans or with animals, has the power to warm the loneliest heart and turn an unfamiliar place into a home.
