The word “longevity” comes from the word “long”. It means that people are living a long life. So in the traditional Spring and Autumn Period, people considered longevity as the most important goal.
1 Early in the Spring and Autumn Period, there were celebrations for the elderly.
2 So the Chinese people started to hold the birthday ceremony at the age of 40. Later celebrations would also be held for people’s 50th, 60th and 70th birthdays. The 60th birthday ceremony was the most common. As the length of people’s lives is increasing in modern society, more celebrations have been held in the later decades (十年). In addition, people now have the habit of celebrating the birthday before the end of the decades. 3 Why so? As the pronunciation of “nine” in Chinese is the same as the pronunciation of the word “long”. Nine is also the largest single-digit number. 4 The highlight of the celebration is birthday feast (宴会), which is different from other feasts. 5 Besides being a form of celebrating old age, the birthday ceremony is also a way to wish for the health of the elderly people and hope that they can overcome difficulties they may meet in later life.
A.It stands for best wishes for longevity.
B.Six is another lucky number in people’s eyes.
C.Only a few people could live long in ancient times.
D.At birthday feasts, eating “longevity noodles” is the most important part.

During the Chinese New Year, people can watch colorful dragon dances in the street or on TV programmes. 1 It is because both in the north and in the south, Chinese can express hope for a happy life through the activity.
Dragons are respected and loved in Chinese culture. In ancient China, the dragon was thought as a mythical animal that could make clouds and bring rains, and prevent disasters and bring happiness. 2 And they are also said to scare away evil spirits and bad luck.
Guided by a big dragon ball, the dragon dancers make different kinds of movements while holding the cloth dragon. 3 As many as 9 to 15 dancers use long poles to guide the dragon’s head and snakelike body. Usually one dancer does tricks on the dragon. Tricks are often jumps and moves that make the dragon turn in different ways.
4 It is usually performed in the evening. One of Hong Kong’s modern-looking neighborhoods in Wan Chai District is home to the Tai Hang Fire Dragon Dance, a folk art form with a history of over 100 years. 5 Then the villagers started to perform a fire dragon dance for three days to drive it away. Since then, around Mid-Autumn Festival every year, the villagers perform fire dragon dances to make wishes.
Today people often see dragon dances during holidays, festivals and the opening of new businesses. These performances invite wealth and good luck.

As time went on, people used them more and more for fun. By the time of the Tang Dynasty, kites became a popular toy all around China.
Flying kites can bring us closer to our ancestors (祖先). 4 Every year, a great number of kite fliers from all over the world come to attend the Weifang International Kite Festival in the city of Weifang, Shandong Province. Now, the city has been known as the “kite capital of the world”. 5 There are both traditional kites like birds and fish, and modern ones like TV and comic characters.

How to stay safe when an earthquake happens
What should you do when an earthquake comes about unexpectedly? Here are some tips for you.
When walking outside
1 Signs, broken windows, tools, building materials and so on are all likely to fall on you from overhead. Protect your head with your bag or coat and keep at a distance from tall buildings. Stone walls and pillars can also fall down and are probably dangerous.
2
Firmly hold the steering wheel (方向盘), gradually reduce speed, park your car on the side of the road, and stop the engine. Listen to information on the radio and find out what is happening. If you need to evacuate (撤出), leave your keys, keep the door unlocked, and walk away with your car documents and valuables.
When underground or in a subway
The shaking you feel when you are underground is about half of what you would experience above ground.
3 So calmly evacuate, follow instructions from shop clerks and subway staff.
When in a high-rise building
4 Immediately leave the elevator. If you get trapped in the elevator, use the fixed telephone to get in touch with someone outside and wait for rescue. When you evacuate from buildings, never use elevators, listen to announcements and use the stairs to leave the building.
When near the ocean
Head for higher ground and carefully listen to tsunami (海啸) information. Do not go near the ocean until tsunami warnings have been cleared. 5
A.Don’t be trapped in the dark.
B.Be careful about falling objects.
C.Don’t even think about going to watch the tsunami!

Do you have the experience that you are having a test but the melody (旋律) of “APT, APT…” remains in your head out of control? Although the songs aren’t played now, they can’t get out of your brain. They are known as earworms.
An earworm can be kept in your head after you listen to the music. But it can also happen if something brings back a memory of the song, like visiting the place where you first heard it. 1 That’s why it is seen as a common thing.
Why do we get earworms? 2 They have been doing some research into what makes a particular part of music so catchy. A catchy piece of music means it is very easy to learn, and can be kept in your brain for a long period. They’ve also learned that most earworms have melodies that are easy to remember.
What would cause the human brain to repeat the same song at the very beginning? 3 But long ago, before people used writing to communicate, we passed along information through songs. So, we may have developed ways to keep music in our head in order to remember valuable information.
Whatever the reason, when a song can’t get out of your brain, it can be unpleasant! 4 You can listen to another song or try to do something else, or tell others about your earworm which can change the way your brain forms memories of music. 5 Then perhaps you should just sit back and try to enjoy the earworm!
A.This is still a mystery.
B.There is a song in your mind.
C.What if none of these ways work?
D.Artists make use of it to make up songs.
E.Scientists have studied earworms for years.
F.Luckily, there may be some ways to avoid an earworm.
G.A study shows that 90 percent of people experience earworms.
Ways to make a great first impression (印象)
You’ve heard it a million times already, but it really does take but a few seconds to make that all-important first impression. Here are some easy ways for you to impress your classmates or teachers.
1
Before you shake hands with somebody, make sure that your hands are clean. The handshake should not be too strong or too weak. If they don’t have a reason to use their left hands, most people use the right. 2
Be on time
When you meet someone for the first time, arriving on time is as important as breathing (呼吸). You may have an excuse, but that will leave the person who doesn’t know you well enough with a bad impression. 3 It’s better to move around the place than be stuck in traffic.
Introduce yourself and ask about their names
Make sure you properly introduce yourself. Ask about their names in a polite way. 4 This will make it easier and more likely for them to remember your name in the future. Always remember to stand up when greeting someone and be sure to introduce them to anyone you’re with.
Make good conversation
To get the most out of your discussion, try to find something in common between the two of you. 5 A person will feel more comfortable with someone he can easily talk to.
A.Use body language
B.Have a proper handshake
C.Repeat the names and use them later in conversation.
D.As a general rule, plan to arrive about 30 minutes early.
E.You’ll be in serious trouble if you leave them with a bad impression.
F.However, don’t have your left hand in your pocket because this appears impolite.
G.It could be a similar taste in clothes or a common hobby.

After you see somebody else yawn (打哈欠), your mouth opens wide and a big yawn comes out. 1 Is it only a coincidence (巧合)? In fact, this is called contagious (传染性的) yawning.
Contagious yawning doesn’t depend on your brain. It’s just like a reflex (反射动作) you don’t have to think about. Scientists say that it only starts around ages four or five. At that time, kids begin to develop better empathy (同理心). 2 In this view, when someone sees another yawn, he follows as if experiencing the same tiredness or stress.
3 That explains why you’re more likely to catch a yawn from your best friend or family member than from a stranger. It also supports the idea that empathy plays a big role in contagious yawning. The less empathy someone has, the less likely they are to yawn back. Contagious yawning can also help people build social connections with each other. 4 It also works well on some animals like dogs and chimpanzees (黑猩猩).
What happens in the brain when we catch yawns? Your brain has special cells called mirror neurons (镜像神经元). These neurons become active when you see someone do something, and they make you feel like doing the same thing, like yawning. 5
So, the next time you see someone yawn and cannot help yawning, you know it’s your brain’s way of building a connection with your friends, family and even pets.
A.You aren’t especially tired, but it still happens.
B.In fact, yawning is not just a sign of sleepiness.
C.It means understanding and sharing the feelings of others.
D.It’s like your brain is mirroring what the other person is doing.
E.Kids under the age of 4 are not able to consider others’ feelings.
F.In other words, it’s one way our brains help us connect with others.
G.Scientists find that it is more common among those with strong connections.

On March 4th, 2025, the Pritzker Prize was given to 68-year-old Liu Jiakun. The prize, which was set up in 1979, is architecture’s (建筑) highest prize. Liu is the fifty-fourth winner of this award. 1 Before him, Wang Shu won the award in 2012.
Liu is famous for designing public spaces in cities. He always creates places for people to gather and enjoy nature. 2 This five-floor building was built in 2015. It features (以……为特色) paths for walking and biking. Inside, there are spaces for culture, sports and business. It also offers a beautiful view of local natural and man-made environments.
Born in Chengdu in 1956, Liu spent much of his childhood exploring the hospital where his mother worked. He loved climbing onto rooftops to see the city’s mix of traditional homes and modern buildings. 3
As an architect (建筑师), Liu doesn’t want a strong personal style. 4 So, he pays more attention to understanding each place and its needs. He also tries to balance China’s traditional architecture with modern technology. “Traditional architecture is great, but it’s a product of its time,” Liu said. 5
Liu also believes that cities should be places for people, not just buildings. Only in this way can a city grow in a healthy way.
A.These early experiences shaped his interest in architecture.

Once in a while it’s helpful to see if your friendship is as healthy as it can be. You might get used to a friendship over time to the point where you don’t see the room for improvement. And since great friendships are priceless, you should always surround yourself with the kind of people who will lift your spirits, make you laugh, and remind you that you are loved. 1 Here are characteristics that strong friendships share.
2
Friends make you feel comfortable with yourself, so you don’t need to act like someone you’re not. Your friends know your shortcomings and love you anyway. You are perhaps the “best version” of yourself when you’re with your friends.
A healthy friendship includes plenty of gentle honesty. True friends won’t pretend (假装) just to avoid an argument (争论). 3 . As a result you’ll know where you stand with your friends and won’t be afraid to share your true opinions.
They argue in a healthy way.
One of the biggest misunderstandings about good friends is that they never fight. But let’s face it: everyone fights. 4 In fact, voicing your opinions freely will cause you to disagree from time to time and that’s okay.
Healthy friendships mean you can be friends with someone else, too.
5 That’s why great friends will improve your relationship yet still encourage you to meet people and try new things without them. A healthy friendship means that sometimes the two of you spend time apart, and that’s okay.
A.Arguing isn’t unhealthy.
B.Is your friendship as healthy as it can be?
C.Good friends eat out together from time to time.
D.Good friends are real and honest with each other.
E.With an unhealthy friendship, you know clearly that something is “off”.
F.Even if you have the best friend, it doesn’t hurt to expand your social circle.
G.In a positive friendship, your friends won’t lie to you and they won’t hurt your feelings either.

Expect things to be fun. Once you do it, 2 . And also, more doors of chance will open for you.
Always have questions in your mind. Whenever you deal with a topic, have questions in your mind. 3 . Questions keep your mind busy. They can change your learning process from being boring to being interesting.

Peer Pressure
Peer pressure is a part of life. 1 This peer group may be of similar age but can also be defined by other commonalities(共同点), including motherhood, professional affiliations, and your local neighborhood.
Peer pressure is not always negative. Trying to fit into a healthy social group, for example, of peers getting good grades, joining sports teams, and making plans for their futures, is positive. 2 Peer influence can show you there is support, encouragement, and community available to you. By seeing someone else do something positive, you may reflect on your own life choices, goals, and where you spend your time.
3 Being pressured by peer, whether it happens in person or online, may shake your sense of identity and self-confidence. For example, you may feel pressure to do unsafe things that have risks you may not fully know.
4 You can also work on surrounding yourself with more positive influences. Some ways of dealing with peer pressure include:
●Not spending time with people who pressure you to do things that feel wrong or dangerous.
●Learning to say “no” and practicing leaving situations that feel unsafe or uncomfortable.
●Talking to a trusted peer or professional (teacher, counselor) if you have problems saying “no” or are feeling pressured to change something about yourself.
● 5
In the journey of life, peers influence our steps. If you embrace positive guidance and stand firm against negativity, you can become the architects of your own story.
A.Some refer to this type of peer “pressure” as peer “influence”.
B.It can be direct or indirect, positive or negative.
C.It is any type of influence that comes from a peer group.
D.Getting over peer pressure means not accepting the negative influence of others.
E.While peer influence can improve your life, peer pressure can cause problems.
F.Feeling pressured to do things that may make you feel bad about yourself is unhealthy.
G.Befriending people who have a positive influence.

Believe it or not, driverless cars are not a recent invention. The idea of driverless cars dates back to the 1939 New York World’s Fair. Many countries have tried to put them into use. 1 .
Fewer accidents and deaths
The technology used in driverless cars helps a lot. It could cut down a lot of human mistakes. 2 Many experts are describing this as the biggest advantage of driverless cars.
Higher speeds on the road
Driverless cars are considered to be safer. 3 . Instead, driverless cars could mean higher speeds on roads, because computers help do the driving. The computers would calculate (估算) the operation (运行) of the cars to make sure the owners remain safe.
4
Because a driverless car would communicate with the other cars around it, it would know where to speed up. In this way, it can make sure of the quickest possible commute (通勤). Although this good thing might be influenced by each city’s conditions, it will make people’s daily trip to work or school much easier.
Freedom for the disabled
Because of the changes, driverless cars would offer disabled people more freedom 5 So they won’t depend on others too much. They can spare more time to do things they want.
A.Shorter commute times.
B.Driverless cars have their own problems as well.
C.It doesn’t mean they will have to drive slowly.
D.Here are the reasons for this.
E.So there might be fewer accidents and deaths on the road
F.That means they will depend less on public transportation.

More and more environmental problems are affecting our lives. Saving energy and reducing waste are everyone’s duty. Do you often take small steps to protect our planet? 1
◆Smart Temperature and Power Control
When using air conditioners or fans, set the temperature wisely. This helps save energy easily. A 2023 study found that raising your air conditioner by just 1℃ can save 7-10% of electricity. 2 Also, turn off water dispensers (饮水机) when not in use—keeping them on wastes over half of the energy they use.
◆Choose low-carbon ways to travel
If the place is nearby, walk or ride a bike instead of driving. 3 Research from 2024 shows that cycling 1 km reduces about 100 grams of carbon emissions (排放量). Taking buses or subways also cuts down air pollution. These public transport tools are green and convenient.
◆ 4
One-time plastics can take hundreds of years to break down and harm wildlife. Even a paper cup may take 20 years to break down. Bring your own shopping bag and a reusable cup when you go out.
◆Save water every day
5 A leaking (漏水的) tap can waste nearly 2 tons of water in a month. Always turn off the tap while brushing your teeth or soaping your hands. New reports show that taking a short shower instead of a bath can save about 150-200 liters each time.
Protecting the environment starts with small actions. Every low-carbon choice helps our Earth. Let’s work together for a greener future!
A.Reduce the use of one-time products.
B.It is a simple way to cut electricity use.
C.We should all try to protect animals around us.
D.Use both sides of paper to use resources wisely.
E.If not, try these four easy steps that really work!
F.Walking or biking also keeps you healthy and fit!
G.Saving water is a key part of protecting the environment.

The word “longevity” comes from the word “long”. It means that people are living a long life. So in the traditional Spring and Autumn Period, people considered longevity as the most important goal.
1 Early in the Spring and Autumn Period, there were celebrations for the elderly.
2 So the Chinese people started to hold the birthday ceremony at the age of 40. Later celebrations would also be held for people’s 50th, 60th and 70th birthdays. The 60th birthday ceremony was the most common. As the length of people’s lives is increasing in modern society, more celebrations have been held in the later decades (十年). In addition, people now have the habit of celebrating the birthday before the end of the decades. 3 Why so? As the pronunciation of “nine” in Chinese is the same as the pronunciation of the word “long”. Nine is also the largest single-digit number. 4 The highlight of the celebration is birthday feast (宴会), which is different from other feasts. 5 Besides being a form of celebrating old age, the birthday ceremony is also a way to wish for the health of the elderly people and hope that they can overcome difficulties they may meet in later life.
A.It stands for best wishes for longevity.
B.Six is another lucky number in people’s eyes.
C.Only a few people could live long in ancient times.
D.At birthday feasts, eating “longevity noodles” is the most important part.

【导语】本文主要介绍了中国传统中关于长寿庆祝的相关活动、习俗以及生日庆祝的演变,包括不同年龄段生日庆祝的情况、数字“九”的寓意以及寿宴等内容。
1.根据后文“Early in the Spring and Autumn Period, there were celebrations for the elderly.”(在春秋早期,就有针对老年人的庆祝活动)可知,此处应总述关于长寿庆祝的活动和习俗。选项E“有很多关于长寿庆祝的活动和习俗”符合语境,引出下文对具体庆祝活动的介绍。故选E。

How to stay safe when an earthquake happens
What should you do when an earthquake comes about unexpectedly? Here are some tips for you.
When walking outside
1 Signs, broken windows, tools, building materials and so on are all likely to fall on you from overhead. Protect your head with your bag or coat and keep at a distance from tall buildings. Stone walls and pillars can also fall down and are probably dangerous.
2
Firmly hold the steering wheel (方向盘), gradually reduce speed, park your car on the side of the road, and stop the engine. Listen to information on the radio and find out what is happening. If you need to evacuate (撤出), leave your keys, keep the door unlocked, and walk away with your car documents and valuables.
When underground or in a subway
The shaking you feel when you are underground is about half of what you would experience above ground.
3 So calmly evacuate, follow instructions from shop clerks and subway staff.
When in a high-rise building
4 Immediately leave the elevator. If you get trapped in the elevator, use the fixed telephone to get in touch with someone outside and wait for rescue. When you evacuate from buildings, never use elevators, listen to announcements and use the stairs to leave the building.
When near the ocean
Head for higher ground and carefully listen to tsunami (海啸) information. Do not go near the ocean until tsunami warnings have been cleared. 5
A.Don’t be trapped in the dark.
B.Be careful about falling objects.
C.Don’t even think about going to watch the tsunami!
D.Pay attention to the different signs of an earthquake.
E.Also, underground areas are safer than high-rise buildings.

Do you have the experience that you are having a test but the melody (旋律) of “APT, APT…” remains in your head out of control? Although the songs aren’t played now, they can’t get out of your brain. They are known as earworms.
An earworm can be kept in your head after you listen to the music. But it can also happen if something brings back a memory of the song, like visiting the place where you first heard it. 1 That’s why it is seen as a common thing.
Why do we get earworms? 2 They have been doing some research into what makes a particular part of music so catchy. A catchy piece of music means it is very easy to learn, and can be kept in your brain for a long period. They’ve also learned that most earworms have melodies that are easy to remember.
What would cause the human brain to repeat the same song at the very beginning? 3 But long ago, before people used writing to communicate, we passed along information through songs. So, we may have developed ways to keep music in our head in order to remember valuable information.
Whatever the reason, when a song can’t get out of your brain, it can be unpleasant! 4 You can listen to another song or try to do something else, or tell others about your earworm which can change the way your brain forms memories of music. 5 Then perhaps you should just sit back and try to enjoy the earworm!
A.This is still a mystery.
B.There is a song in your mind.
C.What if none of these ways work?
D.Artists make use of it to make up songs.
E.Scientists have studied earworms for years.
F.Luckily, there may be some ways to avoid an earworm.
G.A study shows that 90 percent of people experience earworms.
【答案】1.G 2.E 3.A 4.F 5.C

But it can also happen if something brings back a memory of the song, like visiting the place where you first heard it.”可知,耳虫现象可以在听完音乐后留在脑海中,也可能因为某些事物唤起对歌曲的记忆而发生。后文“That’s why it is seen as a common thing.”说明这是一个普遍现象。选项G“一项研究表明,90%的人都有过耳虫现象。”符合语境,解释了为什么这是一个普遍现象,故选G。
2.根据后文“They have been doing some research into what makes a particular part of music so catchy.”可知,他们一直在研究是什么让音乐的某一部分如此吸引人。由此推知,空格处应说明是谁在进行这项研究。选项E“科学家们已经研究耳虫现象多年了。”符合语境,故选E。
3.根据前文“What would cause the human brain to repeat the same song at the very beginning?”可知,此处在询问是什么导致人类大脑一开始就重复同一首歌。后文“But long ago, before people used writing to communicate, we passed along information through songs.”通过转折说明很久以前人们通过歌曲传递信息,但并未直接回答前文的问题。选项A“这仍然是一个谜。”符合语境,说明这个问题至今仍未有明确答案,故选A。
4.根据后文“You can listen to another song or try to do something else, or tell others about your earworm which can change the way your brain forms memories of music.”可知,你可以听另一首歌,或者尝试做其他事情,或者告诉别人你的耳虫,这可以改变你的大脑形成音乐记忆的方式。由此推知,空格处应说明有一些方法可以避免耳虫。选项F“幸运的是,可能有一些方法可以避免耳虫。”符合语境,故选F。
5.根据前文“You can listen to another song or try to do something else, or tell others about your earworm which can change the way your brain forms memories of music.”可知,前文提供了一些避免耳虫的方法。后文“Then perhaps you should just sit back and try to enjoy the earworm!”说明如果前面的方法都不奏效,那么就应该享受耳虫。选项C“如果这些方法都不起作用呢?”符合语境,起到了承上启下的作用,故选C。
Ways to make a great first impression (印象)
You’ve heard it a million times already, but it really does take but a few seconds to make that all-important first impression. Here are some easy ways for you to impress your classmates or teachers.
1
Before you shake hands with somebody, make sure that your hands are clean. The handshake should not be too strong or too weak. If they don’t have a reason to use their left hands, most people use the right. 2
Be on time
When you meet someone for the first time, arriving on time is as important as breathing (呼吸). You may have an excuse, but that will leave the person who doesn’t know you well enough with a bad impression. 3 It’s better to move around the place than be stuck in traffic.
Introduce yourself and ask about their names
Make sure you properly introduce yourself. Ask about their names in a polite way. 4 This will make it easier and more likely for them to remember your name in the future. Always remember to stand up when greeting someone and be sure to introduce them to anyone you’re with.
Make good conversation
To get the most out of your discussion, try to find something in common between the two of you. 5 A person will feel more comfortable with someone he can easily talk to.
A.Use body language
B.Have a proper handshake
C.Repeat the names and use them later in conversation.
D.As a general rule, plan to arrive about 30 minutes early.
E.You’ll be in serious trouble if you leave them with a bad impression.
F.However, don’t have your left hand in your pocket because this appears impolite.
G.It could be a similar taste in clothes or a common hobby.
【答案】1.B 2.F 3.D 4.C 5.G
【导语】本文主要介绍了如何通过正确的握手、准时到达、礼貌的自我介绍以及寻找共同话题等方法,给同学或老师留下良好的第一印象。
1.根据“Before you shake hands with somebody, make sure that your hands are clean...”可知,本段详细描述了握手的具体注意事项。选项B“拥有一个正确的握手”概括了本段主题。故选B。
2.根据“If they don’t have a reason to use their left hands, most people use the right.”可知,前句提到大多数人使用右手握手,空白处需要补充与左手相关的注意事项。选项F“然而,不要把你的左手放在口袋里,因为这会显得不礼貌。”符合语境。故选F。
3.根据“You may have an excuse, but that will leave the person who doesn’t know you well enough with a bad impression.”可知,空前提到迟到会留下坏印象,此处应给出避免迟到的具体建议。选项D“作为一般规则,计划提前大约30分钟到达。”符合语境。故选D。

After you see somebody else yawn (打哈欠), your mouth opens wide and a big yawn comes out. 1 Is it only a coincidence (巧合)? In fact, this is called contagious (传染性的) yawning.
Contagious yawning doesn’t depend on your brain. It’s just like a reflex (反射动作) you don’t have to think about. Scientists say that it only starts around ages four or five. At that time, kids begin to develop better empathy (同理心). 2 In this view, when someone sees another yawn, he follows as if experiencing the same tiredness or stress.
3 That explains why you’re more likely to catch a yawn from your best friend or family member than from a stranger. It also supports the idea that empathy plays a big role in contagious yawning. The less empathy someone has, the less likely they are to yawn back. Contagious yawning can also help people build social connections with each other. 4 It also works well on some animals like dogs and chimpanzees (黑猩猩).
What happens in the brain when we catch yawns? Your brain has special cells called mirror neurons (镜像神经元). These neurons become active when you see someone do something, and they make you feel like doing the same thing, like yawning. 5
So, the next time you see someone yawn and cannot help yawning, you know it’s your brain’s way of building a connection with your friends, family and even pets.
A.You aren’t especially tired, but it still happens.
B.In fact, yawning is not just a sign of sleepiness.
C.It means understanding and sharing the feelings of others.
D.It’s like your brain is mirroring what the other person is doing.
E.Kids under the age of 4 are not able to consider others’ feelings.
F.In other words, it’s one way our brains help us connect with others.
G.Scientists find that it is more common among those with strong connections.
【答案】1.A 2.C 3.G 4.F 5.D
【导语】本文主要介绍了传染性打哈欠这一现象,包括其发生的原因、与同理心的关系、在社交中的作用以及大脑中的相关机制。

2.根据“At that time, kids begin to develop better empathy (同理心).”可知,此处应是说同理心的含义,选项C“它意味着理解和分享他人的感受。”符合语境,解释了同理心的具体含义,与后文“when someone sees another yawn, he follows as if experiencing the same tiredness or stress.”相呼应。故选C。
3.根据“That explains why you’re more likely to catch a yawn from your best friend or family member than from a stranger.”可知,此处应是说传染性打哈欠在关系亲密的人之间更常见,选项G“科学家发现,这在关系密切的人之间更为常见。”符合语境,与后文内容相衔接。故选G。
4.根据“Contagious yawning can also help people build social connections with each other.”可知,此处应是说传染性打哈欠在社交中的作用,选项F“换句话说,这是我们大脑帮助我们与他人建立联系的一种方式。”符合语境,对前文内容进行了总结,并引出了下文对大脑机制的介绍。故选F。
5.根据“Your brain has special cells called mirror neurons (镜像神经元). These neurons become active when you see someone do something, and they make you feel like doing the same thing, like yawning.”可知,此处应是说镜像神经元的作用,选项D“这就像你的大脑在镜像另一个人正在做的事情。”符合语境,解释了镜像神经元如何让我们在看到别人打哈欠时也跟着打哈欠。故选D。

Once in a while it’s helpful to see if your friendship is as healthy as it can be. You might get used to a friendship over time to the point where you don’t see the room for improvement. And since great friendships are priceless, you should always surround yourself with the kind of people who will lift your spirits, make you laugh, and remind you that you are loved. 1 Here are characteristics that strong friendships share.
2
Friends make you feel comfortable with yourself, so you don’t need to act like someone you’re not. Your friends know your shortcomings and love you anyway. You are perhaps the “best version” of yourself when you’re with your friends.
A healthy friendship includes plenty of gentle honesty. True friends won’t pretend (假装) just to avoid an argument (争论). 3 . As a result you’ll know where you stand with your friends and won’t be afraid to share your true opinions.
They argue in a healthy way.
One of the biggest misunderstandings about good friends is that they never fight. But let’s face it: everyone fights. 4 In fact, voicing your opinions freely will cause you to disagree from time to time and that’s okay.
Healthy friendships mean you can be friends with someone else, too.
5 That’s why great friends will improve your relationship yet still encourage you to meet people and try new things without them. A healthy friendship means that sometimes the two of you spend time apart, and that’s okay.
A.Arguing isn’t unhealthy.
B.Is your friendship as healthy as it can be?
C.Good friends eat out together from time to time.
D.Good friends are real and honest with each other.
E.With an unhealthy friendship, you know clearly that something is “off”.
F.Even if you have the best friend, it doesn’t hurt to expand your social circle.
G.In a positive friendship, your friends won’t lie to you and they won’t hurt your feelings either.

Peer Pressure
Peer pressure is a part of life. 1 This peer group may be of similar age but can also be defined by other commonalities(共同点), including motherhood, professional affiliations, and your local neighborhood.
Peer pressure is not always negative. Trying to fit into a healthy social group, for example, of peers getting good grades, joining sports teams, and making plans for their futures, is positive. 2 Peer influence can show you there is support, encouragement, and community available to you. By seeing someone else do something positive, you may reflect on your own life choices, goals, and where you spend your time.
3 Being pressured by peer, whether it happens in person or online, may shake your sense of identity and self-confidence. For example, you may feel pressure to do unsafe things that have risks you may not fully know.
4 You can also work on surrounding yourself with more positive influences. Some ways of dealing with peer pressure include:
●Not spending time with people who pressure you to do things that feel wrong or dangerous.
●Learning to say “no” and practicing leaving situations that feel unsafe or uncomfortable.
●Talking to a trusted peer or professional (teacher, counselor) if you have problems saying “no” or are feeling pressured to change something about yourself.
● 5
In the journey of life, peers influence our steps. If you embrace positive guidance and stand firm against negativity, you can become the architects of your own story.
A.Some refer to this type of peer “pressure” as peer “influence”.
B.It can be direct or indirect, positive or negative.
C.It is any type of influence that comes from a peer group.
D.Getting over peer pressure means not accepting the negative influence of others.
E.While peer influence can improve your life, peer pressure can cause problems.
F.Feeling pressured to do things that may make you feel bad about yourself is unhealthy.
G.Befriending people who have a positive influence.

More and more environmental problems are affecting our lives. Saving energy and reducing waste are everyone’s duty. Do you often take small steps to protect our planet? 1
◆Smart Temperature and Power Control
When using air conditioners or fans, set the temperature wisely. This helps save energy easily. A 2023 study found that raising your air conditioner by just 1℃ can save 7-10% of electricity. 2 Also, turn off water dispensers (饮水机) when not in use—keeping them on wastes over half of the energy they use.
◆Choose low-carbon ways to travel
If the place is nearby, walk or ride a bike instead of driving. 3 Research from 2024 shows that cycling 1 km reduces about 100 grams of carbon emissions (排放量). Taking buses or subways also cuts down air pollution. These public transport tools are green and convenient.
◆ 4
One-time plastics can take hundreds of years to break down and harm wildlife. Even a paper cup may take 20 years to break down. Bring your own shopping bag and a reusable cup when you go out.
◆Save water every day
5 A leaking (漏水的) tap can waste nearly 2 tons of water in a month. Always turn off the tap while brushing your teeth or soaping your hands. New reports show that taking a short shower instead of a bath can save about 150-200 liters each time.
Protecting the environment starts with small actions. Every low-carbon choice helps our Earth. Let’s work together for a greener future!
A.Reduce the use of one-time products.
B.It is a simple way to cut electricity use.
C.We should all try to protect animals around us.
D.Use both sides of paper to use resources wisely.
E.If not, try these four easy steps that really work!
F.Walking or biking also keeps you healthy and fit!
G.Saving water is a key part of protecting the environment.
