考查宾语从句的语序和时态。根据“could you please tell me…”可知此处是宾语从句,需用陈述句语序,即主语在前,谓语在后,而选项B和D为疑问句语序 (助动词did/will提前),不符合语法规则;答语“Next Friday”表示将来时间,故此处宾语从句也用一般将来时,选项A时态为一般过去时,与语境不符。故选C。

“Your freckles (雀斑) make you look ___13___ , and they remind me of the Big Dipper (北斗七星).” Frank told Dotty. Dotty pulled down her hat over her face. “Your singing is kind of scary.” Frank told Carol. Carol cried and ran away. The two girls found the teacher, so the teacher called his mom.
“You wouldn’t get so many wrinkles (皱纹) if you didn’t look at me like that,” Frank told his mom on their way back home.

Everyone was upset and now Frank wasn’t so happy, either.
He walked down the block to his grandpa’s house. Grandpa was happy to see Frank. “What’s up?” he asked. “Everyone is mad at me for being frank. I’m not sure whether honesty is the best policy anymore.” “That used to happen to me, too.” said Grandpa.
Then Mrs. Peacock walked by and ___16___ her large and heavy hat. “It’s new. Do you like it?” Frank thought the hat looked like a flower store on Mrs. Peacock’s head
“Well,” Grandpa said, “there are a lot of flowers up there, but my favorite is the purple one in the middle.”
Frank couldn’t believe his ears. “Grandpa, you lied.” “No, Frank. I told the ___17___ . I really do like the purple flower. I just talked about the good things on her hat instead of the not so good things.” “So, I shouldn’t give the truth unless someone asks for it.” “You should always give people the truth.

Frank thought for a while, “I’ve never seen a hat like that before. It must be one of a kind.” “Thank you.” Mrs. Peacock smiled.

【导语】本文是一篇记叙文,讲述了一向直言不讳的Frank因说话过于直接让身边人感到不悦,在爷爷的引导下,他学会了用礼貌、委婉的方式表达真诚,明白诚实的原则需要结合恰当的表达方法的道理。
【13题详解】
句意:你的雀斑让你看起来很奇怪,它们让我想起了北斗七星。根据后文“Dotty pulled down her hat over her face.”可知,Dotty因Frank的话感到不悦并遮挡脸部,说明Frank的评价是负面的。应选用strange,表示“奇怪的”,符合语境带来的负面反应。natural表示“自然的”、pretty表示“漂亮的”,均为正面评价,与Dotty的反应相悖;pale表示“苍白的”,与雀斑的描述无关。
【14题详解】
句意:Frank为自己的坦率感到非常自豪,但他的同学和大人们都不像他所想的那样欣赏他的诚实。根据前文Frank的直言让同学、妈妈不悦,及后文众人对他的态度,可知大家并不认可他的这种诚实。应选用admired,表示“欣赏、赞赏”,符合“不被他人欣赏”的语境。received表示“接收”,expected表示“期待”,returned表示“归还”,均无法体现对“诚实”的主观态度,与语境不符。
【15题详解】
句意:有些话最好不说出口。根据前文Frank因直言让他人难过,妈妈对其进行劝说的语境,可知此处是妈妈建议有些话不必直说。应选用unsaid,“leave unsaid”为固定搭配,意为“留着不说、未说出口”,符合劝说的语境。untouched表示“未触碰的”,unseen表示“未看见的”,unchanged表示“未改变的”,均与“说话”的语境无关。
【16题详解】
句意:这时Peacock太太走过,戴着她那顶又大又重的帽子。根据后文“It’s new. Do you like it?”及Frank对帽子的评价,可知Peacock太太此时正戴着新帽子。应选用wore,表示“戴着、穿着”,符合描述佩戴物品的语境。dropped表示“掉落”,threw表示“扔”,均为负面动作,与后文询问喜好的语境不符;straightened表示“整理”,文中未提及整理帽子的动作,无对应语境。
【17题详解】
句意:不,Frank,我说的是实话。根据后文“I really do like the purple flower. I just talked about the good things on her hat instead of the not so good things.”可知,爷爷确实喜欢帽子上的紫花,只是只说了优点,并非说谎。应选用truth,“tell the truth”为固定搭配,意为“说实话”,符合爷爷的解释。result表示“结果”,difference表示“差异”,secret表示“秘密”,均与“是否说谎”的语境无关。
【18题详解】
句意:你高音唱得真准。根据前文Carol因Frank评价其唱歌难听而难过,及后文“Carol smiled at Frank.”可知,Frank此次用委婉的方式夸赞Carol的唱歌能力。应选用notes,“high notes”为固定搭配,意为“高音”,符合唱歌的语境。lines表示“线条、台词”,points表示“要点”,places表示“地方”,均与唱歌的专业表述无关。
【19题详解】
句意:当妈妈微笑时,Frank决定不提她嘴角的皱纹。根据前文Frank写给妈妈的诗只夸赞优点,及他从爷爷那里学到的“委婉表达诚实”的道理,可知此处是Frank主动选择不说出妈妈的皱纹。应选用decided,表示“决定”,符合Frank的主观选择。refused表示“拒绝”,语气过于强硬,与语境不符;hoped表示“希望”,agreed表示“同意”,均无“主动选择不做某事”的语义,与文意相悖。
【20题详解】
句意:但现在我知道,最好用礼貌的方式表达真诚。根据前文爷爷对Frank说的“You just have to find the right way to serve it.”可知,此处是Frank对这句话的理解和呼应,指用恰当的方式表达诚实。应选用served,表示“表达、呈现”,与前文的“serve it”形成呼应,符合语境。satisfied表示“满意的”,covered表示“覆盖的”,pleased表示“高兴的”,均为形容词,此处需要动词,且语义与语境不符。

Mason’s “Souper” Idea
Mason Martin wasn’t very interested in soup. His mother, on the other hand, loved soup. She made two different kinds every day.
When Mason was eight, his mother opened a small restaurant called “Soup & More”. When it was cold outside, customers filled the place because the soup warmed their insides. But when summer came, business slowed down. Sure, there were still some regulars (常客), but they added up to no more than a few customers a day.
Mrs. Martin stood by the window, looking worried as she watched the crowds pass by. Mason knew that one more bad summer would mean the end of the business. He felt sad.
Mason couldn’t stand seeing his mother worry and he made up his mind to help her
One hot summer Sunday, Mason sat at the ice-cream shop. He was trying to escape the fry-an-egg-on-the-sidewalk heat. Mason absently moved his spoon in circles, watching his ice cream melt (融化) in the bottom of his bowl.
How could he help save his mother’s restaurant? He kept thinking-until suddenly, he opened his eyes wide. Oh, I’ve got it! I’ve got it!
Mason raced to the restaurant, his heart beating fast. “Mason, why are you running? Are you OK?” His mother asked.
“Mom, I’m fine. Actually, better than fine. I just figured out a way to save the restaurant in the summertime!”
His mother looked at him closely, “Are you sure you’re not overheated?”
“No. I’m excited! I’ve got the greatest idea in the world. Our summer business will be booming (红火的)!”
Mrs. Martin listened as Mason quickly explained. At first she just shook her head, but then started nodding. She realized that her son might have found the answer to their troubles.
From that day on, the restaurant had a new summer dish-ice-cream soups. Word spread far and wide that it was a great place to go to beat the heat. Soon, a long line stretched out (延伸) the door and no one seemed to mind the wait.
24. How did Mason feel when he saw his mother stand by the window?
A. Angry. B. Calm. C. Sad. D. Excited.
25. What was Mason’s “greatest idea” that finally saved the summer business?
A. Serving the soup together with free ice-cream soups.
B. Adding creative cold ice-cream soups to the menu.
C. Turning the restaurant into an ice-cream shop in summer.
D. Offering small gifts to attract more regular customers.
26. What can we learn from Mason’s story?

C. Teamwork is the key to solving problems.
D. Love and careful thinking can solve problems.

C
People often think that success is the result of talent or luck, but in reality, daily routines (惯例) play a key role in shaping our lives. From how we start our mornings to how we spend our evenings, routines can have a big effect on our productivity, mental health, and overall well-being.
One of the biggest benefits of having a routine is increased efficiency (效率). When we have a set timetable, we waste less time deciding what to do next. For example, people who follow a morning routine—such as waking up at the same time, exercising, and eating a healthy breakfast—often feel more energetic and prepared for the day. On the other hand, those who wake up without a plan may feel rushed and stressed, making it harder to focus on important tasks.
Another advantage of routines is their ability to reduce stress and worry. Uncertainty can make people feel stressed, but a predictable routine gives a sense of control. For example, students who create a study timetable and stick to it are likely to feel more confident before exams.
Besides improving efficiency and reducing stress, routines can also lead to better health. Many people have trouble with unhealthy habits, such as eating unhealthy food or spending too much time on screens. By building positive routines, such as preparing balanced meals, setting limits on screen time, and sticking to a workout routine, people can build healthier lifestyles without depending on motivation alone.
However, not all routines are the same in their benefits. Some people can fall into rigid routines. For example, if someone follows this kind of timetable without allowing time for relaxation or social activities, he may feel caught rather than productive. To create a routine that truly benefits you, it’s important to find a balance between order and flexibility (灵活性).
Moreover, routines should be personalized. What works for one person may not work for another. Some people feel more productive in the morning, while others do their best work at night. The key is to discover which habits and timetables make you feel happier, healthier, and more productive.
In the end, routines are not about doing the same thing every day without change. Instead, they are tools that help people stay organized, reduce stress, and build positive habits. By designing a routine that supports your goals, you can make daily life easier and more fulfilling.
27. What can you learn from the passage?
A. A more predictable routine can give a sense of uncertainty.
B. Mixing set plans with changes can build an effective routine.
C. Daily routines can make it harder to focus on important tasks.
D. Motivation connects effective routines with healthy lifestyles.
28. What does the word “rigid” in Paragraph 5 most probably mean?
A. Strict. B. Difficult. C. Organized. D. Balanced.
29. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A Why are Daily Routines Overvalued?
B. How to Build Effective Daily Routines?
C. From Disorder to Control: The Power of Daily Routines.
D. The Secret to a Stress-free Life: The Change of Daily Routines.

D
As winter comes, warm-blooded animals choose to deal with the cold in a social way: crowding together in groups. From mice to Himalayan rabbits, each animal in a group will get together to share the heat from their bodies and avoid the risk of dying from the cold. This natural behavior not only helps them survive freezing temperatures but also builds social relationships within the group.
While humans may not physically crowd together, our ancestors (祖先) would have depended on the support of others for food, fuel (燃料), and shelter (庇护所), and this would have been especially important when it was cold. As a result, they might be very sensitive to others when the temperature dropped. They were likely to look for other places to get warmth if they felt that they could no longer depend on the group for support. Even today, many people don’t notice closer social connections when the weather turns colder, such as getting together with family for hot meals.
Psychologist (心理学家) Geoffrey was the first to study the connection between being left out and physical warmth. He turned to a video game called Cyberball, which tries to recreate the kind of social exclusion that many of us might have experienced in the playground. Each person is seemingly placed in a group of three and asked to play online catch with two other people, hidden from view. In fact, two of the players are controlled by a computer. In the beginning, these computerized players are designed to throw the ball to each person, but after a while, they begin to avoid the participant (参与者) as programmed, so that the participant no longer feels included in the game. Having been left out by the other players, the participant reports feeling rejected. And the participants have the habit of looking for sources (来源) of warmth as comfort. Some even reach for hot drinks or warm clothes immediately after feeling left out, showing a clear connection between social coldness and the need for physical warmth.
Like all psychological discoveries, this relationship between social connection and physical warmth matters for our mental health—sad people often feel cold, and understanding this may help with better care. In daily life, sharing hot soup with family or giving a warm hug to a sad friend drives away both physical cold and the “social coldness” of feeling left out. After all, warmth from connections, as well as physical warmth, is not just key to getting through the winter—it’s a treasure that helps us live happier, more connected lives.
30. Why does the writer mention “mice” and “rabbits” in Paragraph 1?
A. To list the main sources of physical warmth in winter.
B. To describe how animals might get used to cold in the future.
C. To show a common way warm-blooded animals deal with cold.
D. To introduce the similarities between mice and Himalayan rabbits.
31. In Paragraph 3, the underlined word “exclusion” most probably means ________.
A. losing certain games B. stopping from joining in
C. getting help and support D. receiving a warm welcome
32. What are the participants likely to do when they are left out?
A. They may wear light clothes. B. They may stay by themselves.
C. They may eat some potato chips. D. They may drink a cup of hot coffee.
33. What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage?
A. To advise people to share hot food with others on cold days.
B. To explain how warm-blooded animals survive the cold winter.
C. To introduce a famous psychological experiment about being left out.
D. To show the relationship between social connection and physical warmth.
【答案】30. C 31. B 32. D 33. D
【解析】
【导语】本文阐述社交联系与身体温暖的关联,点明其对身心健康的重要性。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据“As winter comes, warm-blooded animals choose to deal with the cold in a social way: crowding together in groups. From mice to Himalayan rabbits, each animal in a group will get together to share the heat from their bodies and avoid the risk of dying from the cold.”可知,作者提到“mice”和“rabbits”是为了举例说明温血动物应对寒冷的常见方式 —— 群居挤在一起取暖。故选C。
【31题详解】
词句猜测题。根据“He turned to a video game called Cyberball, which tries to recreate the kind of social exclusion that many of us might have experienced in the playground…but after a while, they begin to avoid the participant as programmed, so that the participant no longer feels included in the game.”可知,文中描述游戏里其他玩家开始避开参与者,让他“不再感到被包含在游戏中”,说明“exclusion”的含义是“被阻止加入、被排斥”。故选B。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据“And the participants have the habit of looking for sources (来源) of warmth as comfort. Some even reach for hot drinks or warm clothes immediately after feeling left out…”可知,当参与者被排斥时,他们会寻找温暖的来源,比如热饮或暖和的衣服。故选D。
【33题详解】
主旨大意题。根据“Like all psychological discoveries, this relationship between social connection and physical warmth matters for our mental health... After all, warmth from connections, as well as physical warmth, is not just key to getting through the winter—it’s a treasure that helps us live happier, more connected lives.”以及全文可知,文章从动物群居取暖引入,到人类依赖社交取暖,再到心理学实验验证社会排斥与身体温暖的联系,最终总结社交联系与身体温暖的关系对生活的重要性,作者的核心目的是展示 “社交联系与身体温暖之间的关系”。故选D。
四、阅读表达(第34-36题每题2分,第37题4分,共10分)
Have you ever bought something without knowing what’s inside? That’s the fun of blind boxes—small, unopened packages that hide collectable toys or figures (人偶). You don’t know which one you’ll get until you open it. It’s just this kind of surprising joy that makes blind boxes so popular among teenagers and young adults.
Each blind box belongs to a themed series, such as lovely animals, cartoon characters, or cute food items. All the boxes look the same from the outside, but inside lies a surprise. Some figures are common, while others are uncommon and hard to find. Many collectors feel excited every time they open a box, hoping to get that special figure they’ve been searching for.
However, blind boxes are not just about the toys—they’re also about the experience. Collectors often meet and exchange figures in stores and share their excitement together. Some even record unboxing videos and post them on social media. For many, collecting blind boxes becomes a way to express creativity and personality. They decorate their rooms with their favorite figures, design small shelves for display, or use them in art projects. Through this shared interest, a small and friendly community is formed.
But the excitement can become addictive (上瘾的), which is the main problem of buying blind boxes. Since you never know what’s inside, it’s easy to keep buying “just one more” box, hoping to find the uncommon one. Some people end up spending more than they planned. That’s why it’s important to set a budget (预算) and always remind yourself that collecting should bring joy, not pressure and waste.
Blind boxes have become an important part of modern pop culture, combining (融合) art, design, and curiosity together in one small package. Whether you collect them or simply watch unboxing videos online, they remind us of the joy of discovery. Sometimes, the best part of life is the unknown— the little surprises waiting to be opened.

【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了盲盒的流行原因、内涵与社交体验,同时指出盲盒容易让人上瘾的问题,并给出理性消费的建议,最后点明盲盒在现代流行文化中的意义。
【34题详解】
根据第一段“It’s just this kind of surprising joy that makes blind boxes so popular among teenagers and young adults.”以及“You don’t know which one you’ll get until you open it.”可知,盲盒在年轻人中流行的原因是打开之前不知道会得到什么,这种意外的惊喜感吸引了他们。故填The surprising joy of not knowing which collectable toy or figure you’ll get until you open it.
【35题详解】
根据第三段“However, blind boxes are not just about the toys—they’re also about the experience.”可知,盲盒不仅关乎玩具本身,也关乎收藏、交流与分享的体验。故填They are not just about the toys, but also about the experience (of collecting, exchanging figures and sharing excitement with others).
【36题详解】
根据第四段“But the excitement can become addictive, which is the main problem of buying blind boxes.”以及“Some people end up spending more than they planned.”可知,购买盲盒主要问题是这种兴奋感容易让人上瘾,导致人们超支消费。故填The excitement can become addictive, and some people may end up spending more than they planned.
【37题详解】
根据第四段“That’s why it’s important to set a budget and always remind yourself that collecting should bring joy, not pressure and waste.”可知,有必要做预算,原因有二:①盲盒的兴奋感容易让人上瘾,预算能避免超支;②预算能确保收藏盲盒带来的是快乐而非压力与浪费。故填Yes, it is. First, because the excitement of buying blind boxes can be addictive, a budget can prevent people from spending more than they planned. Second, a budget helps make sure that collecting blind boxes brings joy rather than pressure and waste.

Mason’s “Souper” Idea
Mason Martin wasn’t very interested in soup. His mother, on the other hand, loved soup. She made two different kinds every day.
When Mason was eight, his mother opened a small restaurant called “Soup & More”. When it was cold outside, customers filled the place because the soup warmed their insides. But when summer came, business slowed down. Sure, there were still some regulars (常客), but they added up to no more than a few customers a day.
Mrs. Martin stood by the window, looking worried as she watched the crowds pass by. Mason knew that one more bad summer would mean the end of the business. He felt sad.
Mason couldn’t stand seeing his mother worry and he made up his mind to help her.
One hot summer Sunday Mason sat at the ice-cream shop. He was trying to escape the fry-an-egg-on-the-sidewalk heat. Mason absently moved his spoon in circles, watching his ice cream melt (融化) in the bottom of his bowl.
How could he help save his mother’s restaurant? He kept thinking-until suddenly, he opened his eyes wide. Oh, I’ve got it! I’ve got it!
Mason raced to the restaurant, his heart beating fast. “Mason, why are you running? Are you OK?” His mother asked.
“Mom, I’m fine. Actually, better than fine. I just figured out a way to save the restaurant in the summertime!”
His mother looked at him closely, “Are you sure you’re not overheated?”
“No. I’m excited! I’ve got the greatest idea in the world. Our summer business will be booming (红火的)!”
Mrs. Martin listened as Mason quickly explained. At first she just shook her head, but then started nodding. She realized that her son might have found the answer to their troubles.
From that day on, the restaurant had a new summer dish-ice-cream soups. Word spread far and wide that it was a great place to go to beat the heat. Soon, a long line stretched out (延伸) the door and no one seemed to mind the wait.
24. How did Mason feel when he saw his mother stand by the window?
A. Angry. B. Calm. C. Sad. D. Excited.
25. What was Mason’s “greatest idea” that finally saved the summer business?
A. Serving the soup together with free ice-cream soups.
B. Adding creative cold ice-cream soups to the menu.
C. Turning the restaurant into an ice-cream shop in summer.
D. Offering small gifts to attract more regular customers.
26. What can we learn from Mason’s story?
A. Good luck is important for business.
B. Following the old ways is always safe.
C. Teamwork is the key to solving problems.
D. Love and careful thinking can solve problems.
C
People often think that success is the result of talent or luck, but in reality, daily routines (惯例) play a key role in shaping our lives. From how we start our mornings to how we spend our evenings, routines can have a big effect on our productivity, mental health, and overall well-being.
One of the biggest benefits of having a routine is increased efficiency (效率). When we have a set timetable, we waste less time deciding what to do next. For example, people who follow a morning routine—such as waking up at the same time, exercising, and eating a healthy breakfast—often feel more energetic and prepared for the day. On the other hand, those who wake up without a plan may feel rushed and stressed, making it harder to focus on important tasks.
Another advantage of routines is their ability to reduce stress and worry. Uncertainty can make people feel stressed but a predictable routine gives a sense of control. For example, students who create a study timetable and stick to it are likely to feel more confident before exams.
Besides improving efficiency and reducing stress, routines can also lead to better health. Many people have trouble with unhealthy habits, such as eating unhealthy food or spending too much time on screens. By building positive routines, such as preparing balanced meals, setting limits on screen time, and sticking to a workout routine, people can build healthier lifestyles without depending on motivation alone.
However, not all routines are the same in their benefits. Some people can fall into rigid routines. For example, if someone follows this kind of timetable without allowing time for relaxation or social activities, he may feel caught rather than productive. To create a routine that truly benefits you, it’s important to find a balance between order and flexibility (灵活性).
Moreover, routines should be personalized. What works for one person may not work for another. Some people feel more productive in the morning, while others do their best work at night. The key is to discover which habits and timetables make you feel happier, healthier, and more productive.
In the end, routines are not about doing the same thing every day without change. Instead, they are tools that help people stay organized, reduce stress, and build positive habits. By designing a routine that supports your goals, you can make daily life easier and more fulfilling.
27. What can you learn from the passage?
A. A more predictable routine can give a sense of uncertainty.
B. Mixing set plans with changes can build an effective routine.
C. Daily routines can make it harder to focus on important tasks.
D. Motivation connects effective routines with healthy lifestyles.
28. What does the word “rigid” in Paragraph 5 most probably mean?
A. Strict. B. Difficult. C. Organized. D. Balanced.
29. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A. Why are Daily Routines Overvalued?
B. How to Build Effective Daily Routines?
C. From Disorder to Control: The Power of Daily Routines.
D. The Secret to a Stress-free Life: The Change of Daily Routines.
D
As winter comes, warm-blooded animals choose to deal with the cold in a social way: crowding together in groups. From mice to Himalayan rabbits, each animal in a group will get together to share the heat from their bodies and avoid the risk of dying from the cold. This natural behavior not only helps them survive freezing temperatures but also builds social relationships within the group.
While humans may not physically crowd together, our ancestors (祖先) would have depended on the support of others for food, fuel (燃料), and shelter (庇护所), and this would have been especially important when it was cold. As a result, they might be very sensitive to others when the temperature dropped. They were likely to look for other places to get warmth if they felt that they could no longer depend on the group for support. Even today, many people don’t notice closer social connections when the weather turns colder, such as getting together with family for hot meals.
Psychologist (心理学家) Geoffrey was the first to study the connection between being left out and physical warmth. He turned to a video game called Cyberball, which tries to recreate the kind of social exclusion that many of us might have experienced in the playground. Each person is seemingly placed in a group of three and asked to play online catch with two other people, hidden from view. In fact, two of the players are controlled by a computer. In the beginning, these computerized players are designed to throw the ball to each person, but after a while, they begin to avoid the participant (参与者) as programmed, so that the participant no longer feels included in the game. Having been left out by the other players, the participant reports feeling rejected. And the participants have the habit of looking for sources (来源) of warmth as comfort. Some even reach for hot drinks or warm clothes immediately after feeling left out, showing a clear connection between social coldness and the need for physical warmth.
Like all psychological discoveries, this relationship between social connection and physical warmth matters for our mental health—sad people often feel cold, and understanding this may help with better care. In daily life, sharing hot soup with family or giving a warm hug to a sad friend drives away both physical cold and the “social coldness” of feeling left out. After all, warmth from connections, as well as physical warmth, is not just key to getting through the winter—it’s a treasure that helps us live happier, more connected lives.
30. Why does the writer mention “mice” and “rabbits” in Paragraph 1?
A. To list the main sources of physical warmth in winter.
B. To describe how animals might get used to cold in the future.
C. To show a common way warm-blooded animals deal with cold.
D. To introduce the similarities between mice and Himalayan rabbits.
31. In Paragraph 3, the underlined word “exclusion” most probably means ________.
A. losing certain games B. stopping from joining in
C. getting help and support D. receiving a warm welcome
32. What are the participants likely to do when they are left out?
A. They may wear light clothes. B. They may stay by themselves.
C. They may eat some potato chips. D. They may drink a cup of hot coffee.
33. What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage?
A. To advise people to share hot food with others on cold days.
B. To explain how warm-blooded animals survive the cold winter.
C. To introduce a famous psychological experiment about being left out.
D. To show the relationship between social connection and physical warmth.
四、阅读表达(第34-36题每题2分,第37题4分,共10分)
Have you ever bought something without knowing what’s inside? That’s the fun of blind boxes—small, unopened packages that hide collectable toys or figures (人偶). You don’t know which one you’ll get until you open it. It’s just this kind of surprising joy that makes blind boxes so popular among teenagers and young adults.
Each blind box belongs to a themed series, such as lovely animals, cartoon characters, or cute food items. All the boxes look the same from the outside, but inside lies a surprise. Some figures are common, while others are uncommon and hard to find. Many collectors feel excited every time they open a box, hoping to get that special figure they’ve been searching for.
However, blind boxes are not just about the toys—they’re also about the experience. Collectors often meet and exchange figures in stores and share their excitement together. Some even record unboxing videos and post them on social media. For many, collecting blind boxes becomes a way to express creativity and personality. They decorate their rooms with their favorite figures, design small shelves for display, or use them in art projects. Through this shared interest, a small and friendly community is formed.
But the excitement can become addictive (上瘾的), which is the main problem of buying blind boxes. Since you never know what’s inside, it’s easy to keep buying “just one more” box, hoping to find the uncommon one. Some people end up spending more than they planned. That’s why it’s important to set a budget (预算) and always remind yourself that collecting should bring joy, not pressure and waste.
Blind boxes have become an important part of modern pop culture, combining (融合) art, design, and curiosity together in one small package. Whether you collect them or simply watch unboxing videos online, they remind us of the joy of discovery. Sometimes, the best part of life is the unknown— the little surprises waiting to be opened. As long as we open them with care, patience, and self-control, blind boxes can bring fun and creativity to our everyday lives.
