At the age of 1 year and 152 days, Ace-Liam Nana Sam Ankrah from Ghana was the world’s youngest male artist. His mother Chantelle, also an artist, discovered his passion when he was just 6 months old. While learning to crawl, she gave him paint on a canvas to keep him busy — and he created his first artwork, The Crawl.
Since then, Ace-Liam has gained attention from the media and even Ghana’s First Lady. “He has created a natural conversation about art appreciation and nurturing (培育) talent in kids,” the First Lady said. He has made over 20 paintings and participated in his first group exhibition, where nine of his ten displayed works were sold.
Ace-Liam loves the feel of paint, bright colors, and expressing himself freely. “It’s a fun and creative outlet,” his mother explained. He often asks to paint, and his abstract works are inspired by colors, shapes, textures, and his mood. “Every painting shows his curiosity and joy,” Chantelle added.
His painting sessions are natural. He chooses the canvas and colors, asks for help opening paint bottles, and then paints carefully but freely. A session can last from minutes to half an hour. Sometimes he returns days later to finish. When done, he says, “Mama finish.”
After his record was confirmed his family began looking for opportunities to nurture his talent through quality education and international exposure. Chantelle advises parents to encourage children’s interests early: “Every child is unique, and nurturing their passions can lead to amazing achievements.”
For anyone aiming for a world record, she stresses the importance of following the rules carefully: “Read them over and over. The journey itself is fulfilling.” Ace-Liam’s artistic future looks bright, and many are excited to see what he creates next.
4. What is the primary significance of Ace-Liam’s story according to the First Lady?
A. It proves the value of strict discipline.
B. It shows the importance of winning awards.
C. It highlights the commercial value of child art.
D. It inspires discussion on developing young talent.
5. Which of the following best describes Ace-Liam’s creative process?
A. Planned and structured. B. Hesitant and repetitive.
C. Emotional and unrestricted. D. Interactive and social.
6. What does Chantelle expect other parents to do?
A. Set clear goals for children early. B. Support children’s natural interests.
C. Compare children’s progress with others. D. Prepare children for professional courses.
7. What does the author think of Ace-Liam’s future?
A. Uncertain. B. Promising. C. Challenging. D. Stressful.

When there is less sunlight, many people feel their mood drop. About 5% of adults have a condition called seasonal affective disorder (SAD), a type of seasonal depression. Many more people experience a milder “winter blues.”
A good way to prevent this is to use a light box, starting in the fall. Dr. Dorothy Sit, a psychiatrist, says, “Research shows that using bright light therapy (治疗) in the morning can greatly help reduce the symptoms (症状) of seasonal depression.” People usually sit in front of a special light box for about 30 minutes every morning. Making this a regular habit is very important for it to work throughout the dark season.
Studies have found that light therapy can be as effective as antidepressant medicine for some people. Some use both, and this combination can be very helpful. Many people feel better within just one week of starting.
Our bodies need daylight to regulate our internal 24-hour clock, which controls when we feel sleepy or awake. Because this internal clock isn’t perfect, it needs a daily reset. Morning light, entering through our eyes, gives our brain the signal to reset itself. “It helps sync our off-schedule body clock with the outside world,” explains expert Michael Terman.
You don’t need to have severe depression to benefit from a light box. It can also help people with milder mood changes. If you feel low on energy and mood when autumn arrives, it might be worth trying. However, it’s always a good idea to talk to a doctor about your symptoms. Remember, the lack of light isn’t the only reason for feeling down in winter. Cold weather often keeps people indoors, which can lead to social isolation (孤单) and sadness. Light therapy won’t help with the blues caused by loneliness. It’s important to stay connected with friends and keep doing activities you enjoy.
To feel your best during the darker months, combine light therapy with other healthy habits: laugh often, spend time with friends, eat well, and stay active.
8. What is the function of morning light according to paragraph 2?
A. It significantly improves eyesight. B. It offers a treatment for depression.
C. It enhances outdoor exercise effects. D. It replaces the need for social activities.
9. What does the underlined word “sync” in paragraph 4 most probably mean?
A. Match up. B. Slow down. C. Calm down. D. Warm up.
10. What could you do to stay away from loneliness in winter?
A. Keep a balanced diet. B. Spend more time sleeping.
C. Stay socially active and engaged. D. Take antidepressant medicine daily.
11. What is the main purpose of the text?
A. To compare various mental therapies.
B. To recommend a solution for winter blues.
C. To introduce different types of the depression.
D. To explain the causes of seasonal mood changes.
D
Many people choose diet sodas every day to eat less sugar, control their weight, or live a healthier life. However, new studies show that these drinks with artificial sweeteners might do more than just taste sweet — they could be changing how our brains understand hunger.
For a long time, artificial sweeteners have been debated because of possible links to cancer and gut (肠胃) problems. Now, research suggests that sweeteners like sucralose (三氯蔗糖) can activate parts of the brain that make us feel hungry. This may increase our desire to eat. It is still not clear whether this leads to real weight gain, but the belief that diet drinks help people lose weight is now being questioned.
When we drink something with real sugar, the body uses it for energy. This process makes us feel full. But with artificial sweeteners like sucralose, this system does not work the same way. Brain scans show that sucralose increases activity in the area that controls hunger, while sugar decreases it. In one study, people who drank sucralose felt hungrier, and their bodies did not produce chemicals that help them feel full.
Why does this happen? One reason for this may be that the brain expects calories when it tastes something sweet. But artificial sweeteners have no calories. This mismatch may make the brain look for more food, especially sweet foods.
Do these sweeteners cause weight gain? The results are mixed. Some large studies show that people who often use artificial sweeteners have a higher risk of becoming overweight or getting type 2 diabetes (糖尿病). However, experts say this does not necessarily mean sweeteners are the cause. People who use them may already be worried about their weight.
Other studies have found that replacing sugary drinks with diet versions can help people lose some weight. But one recent study found that women with diabetes who switched from diet drinks to water lost more weight and were more likely to improve their health.
Still, many doctors suggest being careful. Based on growing research, they recommend avoiding both sugary and artificially sweetened drinks. A good alternative is naturally flavored water.
12. What is the effect of sucralose on the brain?
A. It cures sugar addiction. B. It improves the sense of taste.
C. It helps to burn more calories. D. It changes how hunger is felt.
13. What can we infer about the “system” mentioned in paragraph 3?
A. It regulates hunger and fullness. B. It responds to natural sugars.
C. It controls intensity of sweetness. D. It’s unaffected by sweeteners.
14. What is the author’s attitude towards artificial sweeteners?
A. Favorable. B. Disapproving. C. Uninterested. D. Curious.
15. What is the best title for the text?
A. Why People Choose Diet Sodas B. How Our Brain Reacts to Sweetness
C. The Chemicals of Artificial Sweeteners D. New Research on Diet Drinks and Health

As humans, we tend to avoid anything that might cause us emotional discomfort. Whether that’s ignoring today’s headlines, or not wanting to enforce a personal boundary, it’s natural to want to preserve some states of emotional balance in life. ____16____. Think about something you’ve achieved: first date; switching jobs; moving cities; or any other courageous moment that no doubt came with fear, or sadness. All those require a leap (跳跃) of faith into the unknown.
At the time, we may worry that we’re about to make a huge mistake when we’re actually making the conscious decision to bravely step into the unknown.

The beautiful truth is that when we stop running from discomfort, and start dancing with it instead, we don’t just survive. ____20____.
A. We will unlock a level of success we never imagined

C. While this balance preserves comfort, it limits our growth

On a beautiful Thursday this April Mr and Mrs Brown took their daughter Lily out for a walk in the neighborhood. On their way back, Mrs Brown picked up a doll for Lily from the local toy store — it had smooth hair and wore a pretty blue dress, just like the dolls Lily always admired in shop windows. These days, when Mr and Mrs Brown were busy with their work and spending less time at home, such small joys meant more than ever.
In the afternoon, Lily couldn’t wait to play with her new doll in the backyard. She was carefully pushing the doll in her little toy pram (推车) when suddenly, a strong wind came and blew the pram down. Before Lily could catch it, the pram hit a tree and fell over. The doll fell out and broke into pieces on the hard ground. Since the doll was made of porcelain (瓷器) and completely broken, the Browns could do nothing about it. Heartbroken, Lily collected all the pieces carefully. She found a small cardboard box and put all the broken pieces inside, then buried it under the big oak tree in their garden.
About one hour later, their neighbor Mrs White happened to pass by and saw what had happened. She came over to comfort little Lily. Seeing how sad the girl was, she really felt sorry for her. And it was at that moment that she decided to do something special for the poor child.
The next day, Mr Brown went out to get the mail as usual and found a package. It was addressed to Lily, with no sender’s name written on it. Feeling curious, he brought it inside and called his daughter. Lily carefully opened the wrapped package.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150个左右;

Lily’s eyes immediately lit up with excitement and joy

Deeply moved by this wonderful act, Mr Brown decided to share the story online.

At the age of 1 year and 152 days, Ace-Liam Nana Sam Ankrah from Ghana was the world’s youngest male artist. His mother Chantelle, also an artist, discovered his passion when he was just 6 months old. While learning to crawl, she gave him paint on a canvas to keep him busy — and he created his first artwork, The Crawl.
Since then, Ace-Liam has gained attention from the media and even Ghana’s First Lady. “He has created a natural conversation about art appreciation and nurturing (培育) talent in kids,” the First Lady said. He has made over 20 paintings and participated in his first group exhibition, where nine of his ten displayed works were sold.
Ace-Liam loves the feel of paint, bright colors, and expressing himself freely. “It’s a fun and creative outlet,” his mother explained. He often asks to paint, and his abstract works are inspired by colors, shapes, textures, and his mood. “Every painting shows his curiosity and joy,” Chantelle added.
His painting sessions are natural. He chooses the canvas and colors, asks for help opening paint bottles, and then paints carefully but freely. A session can last from minutes to half an hour. Sometimes he returns days later to finish. When done, he says, “Mama finish.”
After his record was confirmed, his family began looking for opportunities to nurture his talent through quality education and international exposure. Chantelle advises parents to encourage children’s interests early: “Every child is unique, and nurturing their passions can lead to amazing achievements.”
For anyone aiming for a world record, she stresses the importance of following the rules carefully: “Read them over and over. The journey itself is fulfilling.” Ace-Liam’s artistic future looks bright, and many are excited to see what he creates next.
4. What is the primary significance of Ace-Liam’s story according to the First Lady?
A. It proves the value of strict discipline.
B. It shows the importance of winning awards.
C It highlights the commercial value of child art.
D. It inspires discussion on developing young talent.
5. Which of the following best describes Ace-Liam’s creative process?
A. Planned and structured. B. Hesitant and repetitive.
C. Emotional and unrestricted. D. Interactive and social.
6. What does Chantelle expect other parents to do?
A. Set clear goals for children early. B. Support children’s natural interests.
C. Compare children’s progress with others. D. Prepare children for professional courses.

When there is less sunlight, many people feel their mood drop. About 5% of adults have a condition called seasonal affective disorder (SAD), a type of seasonal depression. Many more people experience a milder “winter blues.”
A good way to prevent this is to use a light box, starting in the fall. Dr. Dorothy Sit, a psychiatrist, says, “Research shows that using bright light therapy (治疗) in the morning can greatly help reduce the symptoms (症状) of seasonal depression.” People usually sit in front of a special light box for about 30 minutes every morning. Making this a regular habit is very important for it to work throughout the dark season.
Studies have found that light therapy can be as effective as antidepressant medicine for some people. Some use both, and this combination can be very helpful. Many people feel better within just one week of starting.
Our bodies need daylight to regulate our internal 24-hour clock, which controls when we feel sleepy or awake. Because this internal clock isn’t perfect, it needs a daily reset. Morning light, entering through our eyes, gives our brain the signal to reset itself. “It helps sync our off-schedule body clock with the outside world,” explains expert Michael Terman.
You don’t need to have severe depression to benefit from a light box. It can also help people with milder mood changes. If you feel low on energy and mood when autumn arrives, it might be worth trying. However, it’s always a good idea to talk to a doctor about your symptoms. Remember, the lack of light isn’t the only reason for feeling down in winter. Cold weather often keeps people indoors, which can lead to social isolation (孤单) and sadness. Light therapy won’t help with the blues caused by loneliness. It’s important to stay connected with friends and keep doing activities you enjoy.
To feel your best during the darker months, combine light therapy with other healthy habits: laugh often, spend time with friends, eat well, and stay active.
8. What is the function of morning light according to paragraph 2?
A. It significantly improves eyesight. B. It offers a treatment for depression.
C. It enhances outdoor exercise effects. D. It replaces the need for social activities.
9. What does the underlined word “sync” in paragraph 4 most probably mean?
A. Match up. B. Slow down. C. Calm down. D. Warm up.
10. What could you do to stay away from loneliness in winter?
A. Keep a balanced diet. B. Spend more time sleeping.
C. Stay socially active and engaged. D. Take antidepressant medicine daily.
11. What is the main purpose of the text?
A. To compare various mental therapies.
B. To recommend a solution for winter blues.
C. To introduce different types of the depression.
D. To explain the causes of seasonal mood changes.
【答案】8. B 9. A 10. C 11. B

Many people choose diet sodas every day to eat less sugar, control their weight, or live a healthier life. However, new studies show that these drinks with artificial sweeteners might do more than just taste sweet — they could be changing how our brains understand hunger.
For a long time, artificial sweeteners have been debated because of possible links to cancer and gut (肠胃) problems. Now, research suggests that sweeteners like sucralose (三氯蔗糖) can activate parts of the brain that make us feel hungry. This may increase our desire to eat. It is still not clear whether this leads to real weight gain, but the belief that diet drinks help people lose weight is now being questioned.
When we drink something with real sugar, the body uses it for energy. This process makes us feel full. But with artificial sweeteners like sucralose, this system does not work the same way. Brain scans show that sucralose increases activity in the area that controls hunger, while sugar decreases it. In one study, people who drank sucralose felt hungrier, and their bodies did not produce chemicals that help them feel full.
Why does this happen? One reason for this may be that the brain expects calories when it tastes something sweet. But artificial sweeteners have no calories. This mismatch may make the brain look for more food, especially sweet foods.
Do these sweeteners cause weight gain? The results are mixed. Some large studies show that people who often use artificial sweeteners have a higher risk of becoming overweight or getting type 2 diabetes (糖尿病). However, experts say this does not necessarily mean sweeteners are the cause. People who use them may already be worried about their weight.
Other studies have found that replacing sugary drinks with diet versions can help people lose some weight. But one recent study found that women with diabetes who switched from diet drinks to water lost more weight and were more likely to improve their health.
Still, many doctors suggest being careful. Based on growing research, they recommend avoiding both sugary and artificially sweetened drinks. A good alternative is naturally flavored water.
12. What is the effect of sucralose on the brain?
A. It cures sugar addiction. B. It improves the sense of taste.
C. It helps to burn more calories. D. It changes how hunger is felt.
13. What can we infer about the “system” mentioned in paragraph 3?
A. It regulates hunger and fullness. B. It responds to natural sugars.
C. It controls intensity of sweetness. D. It’s unaffected by sweeteners.
14. What is the author’s attitude towards artificial sweeteners?
A. Favorable. B. Disapproving. C. Uninterested. D. Curious.
15. What is the best title for the text?
A. Why People Choose Diet Sodas B. How Our Brain Reacts to Sweetness
C The Chemicals of Artificial Sweeteners D. New Research on Diet Drinks and Health
【答案】12. D 13. A 14. B 15. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了最新研究表明,无糖饮料中的人工甜味剂会干扰大脑饥饿感知,或诱发健康风险,专家建议尽量少饮用。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“However, new studies show that these drinks with artificial sweeteners might do more than just taste sweet — they could be changing how our brains understand hunger.( 然而,新的研究表明,这些含有人工甜味剂的饮料可能不仅只是味道甜美——它们还可能改变我们大脑对饥饿感的感知。)”以及第三段中“Brain scans show that sucralose increases activity in the area that controls hunger, while sugar decreases it.(脑部扫描显示,三氯蔗糖会增加控制饥饿感区域的活动,而糖则会降低其活动。)”可知,三氯蔗糖能改变饥饿感的感知方式。故选D项。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“When we drink something with real sugar, the body uses it for energy. This process makes us feel full. But with artificial sweeteners like sucralose, this system does not work the same way. Brain scans show that sucralose increases activity in the area that controls hunger, while sugar decreases it. In one study, people who drank sucralose felt hungrier, and their bodies did not produce chemicals that help them feel full.(当我们喝含有真正糖分的饮料时,身体会将其转化为能量。这个过程会让我们感到饱腹。但像三氯蔗糖这样的人工甜味剂却不会以同样的方式运作。脑部扫描显示,三氯蔗糖会增加控制饥饿感区域的活动,而糖则会降低其活动。在一项研究中,饮用三氯蔗糖的人感觉更饿,而且他们的身体没有产生帮助他们感到饱腹的化学物质。)”可推知,第三段中提到的“系统”,我们可以推断出什么它调节饥饿感和饱腹感。故选A项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“For a long time, artificial sweeteners have been debated because of possible links to cancer and gut (肠胃) problems. Now, research suggests that sweeteners like sucralose (三氯蔗糖) can activate parts of the brain that make us feel hungry. This may increase our desire to eat. It is still not clear whether this leads to real weight gain, but the belief that diet drinks help people lose weight is now being questioned.(长期以来,人工甜味剂一直备受争议,因为它们可能与癌症和肠道问题有关。如今,研究显示,像三氯蔗糖这样的甜味剂能够激活大脑中让我们产生饥饿感的部分区域。这可能会增加我们进食的欲望。目前尚不清楚这是否会导致真正的体重增加,但关于无糖饮料有助于人们减肥的这一观点正受到质疑。)”以及最后一段中“Based on growing research, they recommend avoiding both sugary and artificially sweetened drinks. A good alternative is naturally flavored water.(基于越来越多的研究,他们建议避免饮用含糖饮料和人工甜味饮料。一个较好的替代品是天然调味的水。)”可推知,作者对人工甜味剂所持的态度是不赞成的。故选B项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章大意以及第一段“Many people choose diet sodas every day to eat less sugar, control their weight, or live a healthier life. However, new studies show that these drinks with artificial sweeteners might do more than just taste sweet — they could be changing how our brains understand hunger.(许多人每天选择饮用无糖汽水,以减少糖分摄入、控制体重或过上更健康的生活。然而,新的研究表明,这些含有人工甜味剂的饮料可能不仅只是味道甜美——它们还可能改变我们大脑对饥饿感的感知方式。)”可知,文章围绕无糖汽水的人工甜味剂,介绍多项最新科学研究,分析其对大脑饥饿感知、体重及身体健康的双重影响与争议。由此可知,这篇文章的最佳标题是“关于无糖饮料与健康的最新研究”。故选D项。

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。
As humans, we tend to avoid anything that might cause us emotional discomfort. Whether that’s ignoring today’s headlines, or not wanting to enforce a personal boundary, it’s natural to want to preserve some states of emotional balance in life. ____16____. Think about something you’ve achieved: first date; switching jobs; moving cities; or any other courageous moment that no doubt came with fear, or sadness. All those require a leap (跳跃) of faith into the unknown.
At the time, we may worry that we’re about to make a huge mistake when we’re actually making the conscious decision to bravely step into the unknown. When we look back on these successes, we quickly forget about that initial stressful feeling, seeing that moment as unimportant and insignificant to the events that followed.
____17____: your self-perception begins to shift. You see that past versions of you have been able to not just withstand emotional discomfort, but transform it into personal growth.
Over time, you see that a healthy amount of pressure isn’t just survivable, but essential to performing at your best. ____18____. And you can have the courage to be truly seen and heard by others.
This capacity to hold the wider range of emotions isn’t a skill we’re taught at school. ____19____. Although it can often feel challenging to press pause, where we land when we slow down can be the very place where we cultivate this life-enhancing skill.
As we expand our emotional bandwidth, we unlock the willingness to allow in positive emotions too, which, for many of us, is the missing piece in the self-care puzzle.
The beautiful truth is that when we stop running from discomfort, and start dancing with it instead, we don’t just survive. ____20____.
A. We will unlock a level of success we never imagined
B. Yet this skill can be self-taught by living in the moment
C. While this balance preserves comfort, it limits our growth
D. Whenever trapped in a difficult situation, never lose patience
E. It may be awkward to turn to professionals or people around you for guidance
F. You notice you can calmly enter conversations that improve your relationships
G. But the moment you face discomfort, you will find a surprising capacity within
【答案】16. C 17. G 18. F 19. B 20. A

47. 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。
On a beautiful Thursday this April, Mr and Mrs Brown took their daughter Lily out for a walk in the neighborhood. On their way back, Mrs Brown picked up a doll for Lily from the local toy store — it had smooth hair and wore a pretty blue dress, just like the dolls Lily always admired in shop windows. These days, when Mr and Mrs Brown were busy with their work and spending less time at home, such small joys meant more than ever.
In the afternoon, Lily couldn’t wait to play with her new doll in the backyard. She was carefully pushing the doll in her little toy pram (推车) when suddenly, a strong wind came and blew the pram down. Before Lily could catch it, the pram hit a tree and fell over. The doll fell out and broke into pieces on the hard ground. Since the doll was made of porcelain (瓷器) and completely broken, the Browns could do nothing about it. Heartbroken, Lily collected all the pieces carefully. She found a small cardboard box and put all the broken pieces inside, then buried it under the big oak tree in their garden.
About one hour later, their neighbor Mrs White happened to pass by and saw what had happened. She came over to comfort little Lily. Seeing how sad the girl was, she really felt sorry for her. And it was at that moment that she decided to do something special for the poor child.
The next day, Mr Brown went out to get the mail as usual and found a package. It was addressed to Lily, with no sender’s name written on it. Feeling curious, he brought it inside and called his daughter. Lily carefully opened the wrapped package.

【答案】范文
Lily’s eyes immediately lit up with excitement and joy. Inside lay a brand-new doll—not just any doll, but one even more beautiful than the broken one. Beside the doll was a small handwritten note that said: “Every beautiful doll deserves to be loved by a sweet girl like you. Always keep smiling! — From your secret friend.” Mr Brown immediately thought of their kind neighbor Mrs White, who had witnessed Lily’s sadness yesterday. A warm feeling of gratitude filled his heart as he watched his daughter happily hug her new doll.
Deeply moved by this wonderful act, Mr Brown decided to share the story online. The story quickly spread throughout the community. Many neighbors, inspired by this simple but meaningful gesture, started helping with grocery shopping for elderly neighbors, while others shared plants from their gardens. When Mrs White’s family learned what she had done, they felt incredibly proud of her. But the most valuable reward for Mrs White was seeing Lily playing happily in the garden every day, always carrying the new doll with her. This experience served as a reminder that even small acts of kindness can create waves of warmth and bring people closer together.
