The Language Exchange Programme allows students in pairs to communicate in two different languages they wish to share and learn each week. Students record short entries after each partner meeting noting the language skills practised and the topics discussed. Each pair of students meets three times throughout the term with a teacher who decides if the exchange is effective. Students who successfully complete the programme will receive one credit each.
Requirements for completion:
•One welcoming session on the second Friday of the term
•18 weekly one-hour pair meetings
•Weekly progress reports for all pair meetings
•At least three pair-teacher meetings
•One five-minute final video
Sign up!
The sign-up and registration process is as follows:
•Students sign up and indicate the languages they can share and languages they are interested in learning.
•Based on the information entered by each student, potential pairs are identified.
•Proficiency (熟练) levels are confirmed through coursework or placement tests.
•Once a pair has been determined to be suitable, the students will be contacted individually with a special permission number to register for the programme.
Reminders:
Signing up for the programme does not automatically mean that you will be able to register and participate. Pairs are matched by languages of interest and proficiency levels. Since there are many factors involved in the pairing process, not all students who sign up will be matched with a partner and be able to register for the programme.

Ladakh, in the trans-Himalayas, with its vast, uninhabited and stunning landscapes, has fascinated me since my first visit 20 years ago. In 2011, my fifth time in Ladakh, the region’s raw beauty held an entirely different pull — one that seemed to hum with an ancient energy, a force I hadn’t noticed before.
In the very bones of the land lay a collection of prehistoric carvings known as petroglyphs, the only remains of prehistoric human presence in the area. Seeing these carvings, I couldn’t shake the feeling that I was witnessing something far deeper than I had imagined. There was an urgency to document them, as centuries-old carvings were being destroyed under the pressures of development. As a mountain enthusiast always seeking adventures, this attractive art drew me in, like a moth to a flame, beginning a decade-long journey of discovery and documentation.
These markings were not just carvings on rock but reflections of an ancient culture we know little about. Despite tough living conditions, these huntergatherers still found ways to convey their beliefs and observations through highly stylized forms, reflecting the deep artistic desire that has always been a part of the human — long before the rise of civilized society. As artist and anthropologist Desmond Morris put it, “It is as if the human species were incapable of being artless regardless of material circumstances.”
To bring these open-air art galleries to a wider audience, I wanted to create something that had not been attempted before by using specialized photography techniques with my focus being on distribution, styles and creative range. It was no small matter, given the vastness of Ladakh, my ambition to capture art from every region, the limited windows of opportunity, and the harsh conditions I faced. Not to mention, all my trips were personally funded. When the book — Speaking Stones: Rock Art of Ladakh — was named a finalist for the Banff Mountain Book Award in 2024, I was honored, but the recognition was secondary. My true reward was a deeper connection with time and nature through a vast unbroken string, binding us all together.
4. What drove the author to document the petroglyphs?
A. The threat of regional progress. B. The appeal of amazing scenery.
C. A search for thrilling experiences. D. A childhood bond with ancient art.
5. What can we learn from Morris’s quote in paragraph 3?
A. Art is the mirror of nature. B. Art inspires human wisdom.
C. Art is deeply rooted in humans. D. Art can’t exist without materials.
6. Which can best describe the process of creating the book?
A. Systematic. B. Brain-tearing. C. Painstaking. D. Eventful.
7. Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Tasting the Past: The Analysis of Petroglyph
B. Written in Stone: Ladakh’s Timeless Artistry
C. Guarding the Rocks: A Saver of Ladakh’s Heritage
D. Carved by Time: A Record of Himalayan Geography
【答案】4. A 5. C 6. C 7. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者因拉达克岩画面临开发破坏而投入十年记录,揭示其作为人类艺术本能体现的价值,并通过书籍向世界传播这一文化遗产。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“There was an urgency to document them, as centuries-old carvings were being destroyed under the pressures of development. (记录这些石刻变得紧迫,因为数百年的雕刻正在发展的压力下遭到破坏。)”可知,区域发展的威胁导致岩画正在被破坏,作者受此驱使决定进行记录。故选A项。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中Desmond Morris所说的话“It is as if the human species were incapable of being artless regardless of material circumstances. (人类似乎无论如何都无法脱离艺术,即便在物质条件匮乏的情况下。)”可知,Morris强调人类天生具有艺术表达的本能,与物质条件无关。因此,C项“艺术深植于人类本性中”准确概括了这一思想。故选C项。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“It was no small matter, given the vastness of Ladakh, my ambition to capture art from every region, the limited windows of opportunity, and the harsh conditions I faced. Not to mention, all my trips were personally funded. (这绝非易事,考虑到拉达克的广袤、我想记录所有地区艺术的野心、有限的时机以及严酷的条件,更不用说所有行程都是自费。)”可知,在这一过程中作者面临各种艰难和挑战,因此这是艰辛的。A. Systematic系统性的;B. Brain-tearing烧脑的;C.Painstaking辛苦的;D. Eventful多事的。故选C项。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是第二段中“As a mountain enthusiast always seeking adventures, this attractive art drew me in, like a moth to a flame, beginning a decade-long journey of discovery and documentation. (作为一位始终追寻冒险的登山爱好者,这些迷人的艺术如同火焰吸引飞蛾般令我着迷,由此开启了我长达十年的探索与记录之旅。)”和第三段中“These markings were not just carvings on rock but reflections of an ancient culture we know little about. (这些刻痕绝非仅仅是岩石上的雕刻,更是我们对之一无所知的远古文化的映射。)”可知,文章主要讲述了作者记录拉达克史前岩画,探索其作为古代艺术的价值,并出版书籍的经历。因此,B项“刻于石上:拉达克的永恒艺术”涵盖岩画和艺术性,且Timeless呼应文中古代与现代的连接,最适合作为文章标题。故选B项。
C
Understanding a simple-looking English sentence such as “I read this article yesterday” actually requires some complicated conceptual computation: a subject (“T”) performed an action (“read”) on an object (“article”) at a specific time (“yesterday”). But the human brain routinely does this work nearly at once based on the language’s grammatical rules, says linguist Andrea E. Martin. And Martin’s team has now found that the human brain can accommodate fundamental grammatical differences across languages by adjusting how it processes each sentence.
For a recent study in PLOS Biology, the researchers observed variations in Dutch-speaking participants’ brain waves while they listened to a Dutch-language audiobook. To visualize these changes, the scientists used a metric (指标) quantifying how many new “predictions” the brain makes of words that could come next in a sentence. This framework was then tested against three different parsing (语法分析的) strategies, or linguistic models that illustrate how the brain builds information over time.
Previous English-based studies with a similar setup concluded in favor of a model where listeners “wait and see” how each phrase in a sentence will end before interpreting it. But the Dutch speakers in Martin’s study leaned strongly toward a highly predictive model; participants tended to finish each phrase in their head preemptively before it was complete. (A third model, in which listeners wait to hear all of the phrases in a sentence before interpreting any part of it, is seldom used in either language.)
In Dutch language structure, verbs come near the end of a sentence rather than immediately after the subject like they do in English, while in Korean, the subject is usually left out and in Arabic verbs often come first. So flexibility is vital in processing different languages simply because they have different properties.
The findings support the need for scientists to include more diversity when crafting linguistic models. “This is going to help us capture how the brain is understanding the structured meaning of language, and the social application of language,” Martin says. “There’s so much yet to be understood in the brain.”
8. Why does the author cite the example in paragraph 1?
A. To introduce a grammar rule. B. To analyze an English sentence.
C. To bring in a new research finding. D. To stress the complexity of human brain.
9 What does the underlined word “preemptively” in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. By accident. B. In advance. C. On time. D. By mistake.
10. Which sentence can match the Dutch language structure?
A. Universe the about documentary saw. B. Saw I a documentary about the universe.
C. I saw a documentary about the universe. D. I a documentary about the universe saw.
11. What does Martin try to stress in the last paragraph?
A. The challenges of brain researches. B. The application of the present findings.
C. The purposes of different linguistic models. D. The necessity to diversify subjects in studies.
【答案】8. C 9. B 10. D 11. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了语言学家Andrea E. Martin团队的研究发现:人类大脑通过调整语法分析策略来适应不同语言的基本语法差异,并强调科学界需在语言模型中纳入更多语言多样性。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“But the human brain routinely does this work nearly at once based on the language’s grammatical rules, says linguist Andrea E. Martin. And Martin’s team has now found that the human brain can accommodate fundamental grammatical differences across languages by adjusting how it processes each sentence.(但语言学家Andrea E. Martin表示,人脑通常会根据语言语法规则几乎立即完成这项工作。而且,Martin的团队现在发现,人脑能够通过调整处理每个句子的方式来适应不同语言之间根本性的语法差异)”可知,作者开篇举例是为了引出Martin团队的新研究发现,即大脑处理不同语言的灵活性。故选C。
【9题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段“participants tended to finish each phrase in their head preemptively before it was complete(参与者倾向于在短语未完成时preemptively在脑中补全它)”可知,上文“But the Dutch speakers in Martin’s study leaned strongly toward a highly predictive model(但在Martin的研究中,说荷兰语的人强烈倾向于一个高度预测的模型)”说的是参与者需要再头脑中补全每一个句子,下文说的是在完成之前,可推理出此处说的是参与者倾向于在短语未完成时提前在脑中补全它,可推理出“preemptively”意为“提前地”。故选B。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“In Dutch language structure, verbs come near the end of a sentence rather than immediately after the subject like they do in English, while in Korean, the subject is usually left out and in Arabic verbs often come first. So flexibility is vital in processing different languages simply because they have different properties.(在荷兰语的结构中,动词位于句子的末尾,而不是像英语那样紧跟在主语之后;而在韩语中,主语通常被省略;在阿拉伯语里,动词往往放在最前面。因此,在处理不同语言时,灵活性至关重要,因为它们具有不同的特性)”可知,荷兰语结构为“主语+宾语+动词”结构。选项D“I a documentary about the universe saw”为“主语I+宾语a documentary about the universe+动词saw”结构,符合荷兰语结构。故选D。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“The findings support the need for scientists to include more diversity when crafting linguistic models.(这些发现支持了科学家在构建语言模型时需要纳入更多多样性的必要性)”可知,这些发现支持了科学家在构建语言模型时需要纳入更多多样性的必要性,可推理出Martin强调研究中语言多样性的必要性,故选D。
D
Recently, a friend asked for help with a tricky problem: they were staging a play, and the script had a large number of characters. They didn’t want to hire an actor for each role, and while they could double up, they would run into problems if the same actor were playing two characters in a scene. Luckily, I was the right person to come to for help. There’s a versatile (通用的) piece of maths — graph colouring — that’s effective at solving many such problems, from casting a play to timetable scheduling.
Mathematicians are often particularly interested in graph colouring, which involves assigning a colour to each point of a graph-networks of points joined by lines, so that any two point s joined with a line are assigned different colours. Finding the minimum number of colours needed to do this can tell us something useful about the graph’s structure. For example, a graph with a triangle of points all joined to a fourth point in the centre will need at least four colours to fill it in.
One of my favourite uses of graph colouring is in scheduling problems: imagine a set of students, with a shared set of classes. We can draw a graph, indicating each class by a point, and join two points if those classes have any students taking both (so they can’t happen at the same time). Then, we find a way to colour the graph using the fewest possible colours. The minimum number of colours will tell us how many timetables periods we will need: each colour represents a set of classes with no overlap in students, so they can all happen simultaneously (同时地).
This may tell you how I solved my friend’s problem: I suggested they draw a graph, represent each character with a point, and join two characters with a line if they appeared in any scenes together. Colouring this graph minimally then told them exactly how many actors they would need to stage the play. Another victory for maths — on with the show!
12. What worried the author’s friend most?
A. The lack of towering actors. B. The numerous scene changes.
C. The tight budget for costumes. D. The scene conflicts of the same actor.
13. Which of the following best illustrates the example in paragraph 2?
B: Blue G: Green R: Red Y: Yellow
A. B.
C. D.
14. What does the author intend to do in paragraph 3?
A. Clarify an assumption. B. Present an application.
C. Introduce an approach. D. Analyze a phenomenon.
15. How does the author sound in the last paragraph?
A. Proud. B. Serious. C. Hesitant. D. Authoritative.
【答案】12. D 13. C 14. B 15. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了通用的数学方法——图着色。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“They didn’t want to hire an actor for each role, and while they could double up, they would run into problems if the same actor were playing two characters in a scene. (他们不想为每个角色都聘请一名演员,虽然可以让演员一人分饰多角,但如果同一个演员在一个场景中扮演两个角色,就会出现问题。)”可知,作者朋友最担心的是同一个演员的场景冲突问题。故选D项。
13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“For example, a graph with a triangle of points all joined to a fourth point in the centre will need at least four colours to fill it in. (例如,一个由三个点构成三角形且都与中心的第四个点相连的图,至少需要四种颜色来填充。)”可知,图形中有四个点,且三个点构成三角形并都与中心的点相连,每个相连的点颜色不同,所以至少需要四种颜色。C选项符合该描述。故选C项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“One of my favourite uses of graph colouring is in scheduling problems: imagine a set of students, with a shared set of classes. (我最喜欢的图着色的应用之一是在日程安排问题上:想象有一群学生,他们有共同的课程。)”以及后面的具体说明可知,作者在这一段旨在介绍图着色在日程安排问题上的应用。故选B项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Another victory for maths — on with the show! (数学的又一次胜利——好戏开场!)”可以看出,作者对用数学方法解决朋友的问题感到很自豪。故选A项。
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。
Imagine it’s the dead of winter. A group of hedgehogs (刺猬) get together to share body heat, but they quickly withdraw as their quills (刺) hurt one another when they get too close. As the cold weather sinks in, the hedgehogs get together again, and withdraw again. ____16____: do they tolerate the cold in isolation (孤立) or share the pain? This is the hedgehog’s dilemma, invented by German philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer in 1851.
Today, the hedgehog’s dilemma is widely known for its examination of complex questions about human connection and isolation. It is a metaphor for human closeness. Hedgehogs get together for warmth, while we for love and affection. ____17____. Insensitive words and poor decisions are the sharp quills we use to stab one another. The closer we get to a person, the greater mutual harm.
People with an avoidant attachment style tend to guard themselves against human hedgehogs’ quills. They prefer the pain of loneliness. Contrarily, the anxious attachment style draws too close to the other hedgehogs. ____18____. Different as they seem, both types of people are trapped in a dilemma that prevents them meeting their emotional needs.
____19____. But it isn’t impossible to solve. Arthur Schopenhauer himself proposed that the key solution to the hedgehog’s dilemma is to find balance. Like the hedgehogs finally finding the right distance to keep warm without touching, people at two extremes of the dilemma must meet in the middle. So, if you find yourself overstepping or pulling away in your relationships, talk to your partner. ____20____. It will save you both a lot of needless suffering.
A. No one wants to compromise
B. Now they’re faced with the dilemma
C. The hedgehog problem is a tricky one
D. Understanding our own behavior is tough sometimes
E. In their search for closeness, they get hurt over and over again
F. Work together to identify a compromise that works for both of you
G. The cold winter is the loneliness we experience when we withdraw from society
【答案】16. B 17. G 18. E 19. C 20. F
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍叔本华提出的刺猬困境,用刺猬比喻人际关系中的亲近与伤害,并给出找到平衡的解决办法。
【16题详解】
根据前文“As the cold weather sinks in, the hedgehogs get together again, and withdraw again.(随着寒冷来袭,刺猬们再次靠近,又再次分开。)”以及后文“do they tolerate the cold in isolation or share the pain?(它们是独自忍受寒冷,还是共同承受刺痛?)”可知,刺猬反复靠近又分开,陷入了两难境地,B选项“Now they’re faced with the dilemma(现在它们面临着两难选择)”引出后文的选择问句,符合语境。故选B项。
【17题详解】
根据前文“Hedgehogs get together for warmth, while we for love and affection.(刺猬靠近是为了取暖,而我们靠近是为了爱与情感。)”以及后文“Insensitive words and poor decisions are the sharp quills we use to stab one another.(刻薄的话语和草率的决定就是我们刺伤彼此的尖刺。)”可知,本段在把刺猬的困境类比成人际关系,G选项“The cold winter is the loneliness we experience when we withdraw from society(寒冷的冬天就是我们远离社交时感受到的孤独)”承接前文的类比,将冬天对应孤独,符合语境。故选G项。
【18题详解】
根据前文“Contrarily, the anxious attachment style draws too close to the other hedgehogs.(相反,焦虑型依恋的人会靠得太近。)”可知,这类人因为过度靠近而受伤,E选项“In their search for closeness, they get hurt over and over again(在寻求亲近的过程中,他们一次次受到伤害)”与前文内容衔接,符合语境。故选E项。
【19题详解】
根据后文“But it isn’t impossible to solve.(但这并非无法解决。)”中的But可知,此空与后文构成转折,说明这个问题很难处理,C选项“The hedgehog problem is a tricky one(刺猬困境是一个棘手的问题)”引出后文的解决方法,符合语境。故选C项。
【20题详解】
根据前文“So, if you find yourself overstepping or pulling away in your relationships, talk to your partner.(所以,如果你在关系中发现自己越界或疏远,就和伴侣沟通。)”可知,前文建议沟通解决问题,此空应说明沟通后的共同行动,F选项“Work together to identify a compromise that works for both of you(共同找到一个对双方都有效的折中方案)”承接前文,符合语境。故选F项。

I am a very anxious person. There is rarely a moment when my head is completely clear and I am devoting all of my attention to one subject matter. I can’t even relax in my sleep: I solve math problems in my dreams more than I would like to admit.
It was freshman year and I wanted to explore the new and exciting electives (选修课) that I could enroll in and that my middle school didn’t offer. As I was carefully studying the list of what seemed like a million courses I could take, one stuck out: Interior Design. My mom and I watch HGTV every Sunday morning as we drink coffee. After watching so many of these shows, I was confident that I could design a whole house. What could go wrong? It’s just about colors, patterns, textures and furniture, right?
At the end of the semester, we were at the final stretch of the year, with only about a week left of regular classes before finals, and we were working on our final projects. The assignment was simple: “Design a 3D model of a room in your dream home.” “Perfect,” I thought to myself, “an easy 100 final grade.”
As I dived into my final project, I quickly realized that designing a 3D model of a room in my dream home was far from the piece of cake I had pictured. At first, I was overwhelmed by the complexity of the software. It wasn’t just about picking colors and arranging furniture; it was about understanding dimensions, angles, and lighting. Every time I thought I had a handle on it, something would go wrong. The walls wouldn’t arrange in a line, the furniture would float in mid-air, and the colors I chose looked nothing like they did on-screen.
My anxiety began to grow. I found myself staying up late into the night, staring at my computer screen, and feeling more and more frustrated with each passing minute. I started to doubt myself. What if I wasn’t cut out for this? What if I failed the course because of this one project?
注意:1. 续写词数应为150个左右;

I decided to reach out for help and approached my mom one day.

Armed with my mom’s support, I spent days fully engaged in my project.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】I decided to reach out for help and approached my mom one day. Tears welled up in my eyes as I spilled out all my frustrations about the project. “I just can’t seem to get it right,” I sobbed. My mom listened patiently, and then gave me a reassuring hug. “Design isn’t just about getting everything perfect technically,” she said. “It’s about expressing yourself and having fun with it. Come on! We’ll work on it together.” Afterwards, we dived back into the project with renewed energy. My mom helped me navigate the software, offering tips and tricks she had picked up from watching all those HGTV shows. We chose a color that reflected my cheerful personality and picked out furniture that fit the style I was going for.
Armed with my mom’s support, I spent days fully engaged in my project. I adjusted the lighting, aligned the walls, and arranged the furniture. As I worked, I felt a sense of calm wash over me. For the first time, my anxious mind was focused solely on creating something beautiful. When I finally presented my project, I was thrilled with it. The room I had designed was a perfect blend of style and comfort, and a reflection of who I was. And as I looked at my mom, who was beaming with pride, I knew that I couldn’t have done it without her support. Together, we had turned my frustration into a masterpiece.

A
The Language Exchange Programme allows students in pairs to communicate in two different languages they wish to share and learn each week. Students record short entries after each partner meeting noting the language skills practised and the topics discussed. Each pair of students meets three times throughout the term with a teacher who decides if the exchange is effective. Students who successfully complete the programme will receive one credit each.
Requirements for completion:
•One welcoming session on the second Friday of the term
•18 weekly one-hour pair meetings
•Weekly progress reports for all pair meetings
•At least three pair-teacher meetings
•One five-minute final video
Sign up!
The sign-up and registration process is as follows:
•Students sign up and indicate the languages they can share and languages they are interested in learning.
•Based on the information entered by each student, potential pairs are identified.
•Proficiency (熟练) levels are confirmed through coursework or placement tests.
•Once a pair has been determined to be suitable, the students will be contacted individually with a special permission number to register for the programme.
Reminders:
Signing up for the programme does not automatically mean that you will be able to register and participate. Pairs are matched by languages of interest and proficiency levels. Since there are many factors involved in the pairing process, not all students who sign up will be matched with a partner and be able to register for the programme.
1. In the programme, students will _________.
A. chair daily meetings B. evaluate the exchange
C. meet teachers each week D. practise their language skills
2. To complete the programme, students are required to _________.

Ladakh, in the trans-Himalayas, with its vast, uninhabited and stunning landscapes, has fascinated me since my first visit 20 years ago. In 2011, my fifth time in Ladakh, the region’s raw beauty held an entirely different pull — one that seemed to hum with an ancient energy, a force I hadn’t noticed before.
In the very bones of the land lay a collection of prehistoric carvings known as petroglyphs, the only remains of prehistoric human presence in the area. Seeing these carvings, I couldn’t shake the feeling that I was witnessing something far deeper than I had imagined. There was an urgency to document them, as centuries-old carvings were being destroyed under the pressures of development. As a mountain enthusiast always seeking adventures, this attractive art drew me in, like a moth to a flame, beginning a decade-long journey of discovery and documentation.
These markings were not just carvings on rock but reflections of an ancient culture we know little about. Despite tough living conditions, these huntergatherers still found ways to convey their beliefs and observations through highly stylized forms, reflecting the deep artistic desire that has always been a part of the human — long before the rise of civilized society. As artist and anthropologist Desmond Morris put it, “It is as if the human species were incapable of being artless regardless of material circumstances.”
To bring these open-air art galleries to a wider audience, I wanted to create something that had not been attempted before by using specialized photography techniques with my focus being on distribution, styles and creative range. It was no small matter, given the vastness of Ladakh, my ambition to capture art from every region, the limited windows of opportunity, and the harsh conditions I faced. Not to mention, all my trips were personally funded. When the book — Speaking Stones: Rock Art of Ladakh — was named a finalist for the Banff Mountain Book Award in 2024, I was honored, but the recognition was secondary. My true reward was a deeper connection with time and nature through a vast unbroken string, binding us all together.
4. What drove the author to document the petroglyphs?
A. The threat of regional progress. B. The appeal of amazing scenery.
C. A search for thrilling experiences. D. A childhood bond with ancient art.
5. What can we learn from Morris’s quote in paragraph 3?
A. Art is the mirror of nature. B. Art inspires human wisdom.
C. Art is deeply rooted in humans. D. Art can’t exist without materials.
6. Which can best describe the process of creating the book?
A. Systematic. B. Brain-tearing. C. Painstaking. D. Eventful.
7. Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Tasting the Past: The Analysis of Petroglyph
B. Written in Stone: Ladakh’s Timeless Artistry
C. Guarding the Rocks: A Saver of Ladakh’s Heritage
D. Carved by Time: A Record of Himalayan Geography
C
Understanding a simple-looking English sentence such as “I read this article yesterday” actually requires some complicated conceptual computation: a subject (“T”) performed an action (“read”) on an object (“article”) at a specific time (“yesterday”). But the human brain routinely does this work nearly at once based on the language’s grammatical rules, says linguist Andrea E. Martin. And Martin’s team has now found that the human brain can accommodate fundamental grammatical differences across languages by adjusting how it processes each sentence.
For a recent study in PLOS Biology, the researchers observed variations in Dutch-speaking participants’ brain waves while they listened to a Dutch-language audiobook. To visualize these changes, the scientists used a metric (指标) quantifying how many new “predictions” the brain makes of words that could come next in a sentence. This framework was then tested against three different parsing (语法分析的) strategies, or linguistic models that illustrate how the brain builds information over time.
Previous English-based studies with a similar setup concluded in favor of a model where listeners “wait and see” how each phrase in a sentence will end before interpreting it. But the Dutch speakers in Martin’s study leaned strongly toward a highly predictive model; participants tended to finish each phrase in their head preemptively before it was complete. (A third model, in which listeners wait to hear all of the phrases in a sentence before interpreting any part of it, is seldom used in either language.)
In Dutch language structure, verbs come near the end of a sentence rather than immediately after the subject like they do in English, while in Korean, the subject is usually left out and in Arabic verbs often come first. So flexibility is vital in processing different languages simply because they have different properties.
The findings support the need for scientists to include more diversity when crafting linguistic models. “This is going to help us capture how the brain is understanding the structured meaning of language, and the social application of language,” Martin says. “There’s so much yet to be understood in the brain.”
8. Why does the author cite the example in paragraph 1?
A. To introduce a grammar rule. B. To analyze an English sentence.
C. To bring in a new research finding. D. To stress the complexity of human brain.
9. What does the underlined word “preemptively” in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. By accident. B. In advance. C. On time. D. By mistake.
10 Which sentence can match the Dutch language structure?
A. Universe the about documentary saw. B. Saw I a documentary about the universe.
C. I saw a documentary about the universe. D. I a documentary about the universe saw.
11. What does Martin try to stress in the last paragraph?
A. The challenges of brain researches. B. The application of the present findings.
C. The purposes of different linguistic models. D. The necessity to diversify subjects in studies.
D
Recently, a friend asked for help with a tricky problem: they were staging a play, and the script had a large number of characters. They didn’t want to hire an actor for each role, and while they could double up, they would run into problems if the same actor were playing two characters in a scene. Luckily, I was the right person to come to for help. There’s a versatile (通用的) piece of maths — graph colouring — that’s effective at solving many such problems, from casting a play to timetable scheduling.
Mathematicians are often particularly interested in graph colouring, which involves assigning a colour to each point of a graph-networks of points joined by lines, so that any two point s joined with a line are assigned different colours. Finding the minimum number of colours needed to do this can tell us something useful about the graph’s structure. For example, a graph with a triangle of points all joined to a fourth point in the centre will need at least four colours to fill it in.
One of my favourite uses of graph colouring is in scheduling problems: imagine a set of students with a shared set of classes. We can draw a graph, indicating each class by a point, and join two points if those classes have any students taking both (so they can’t happen at the same time). Then, we find a way to colour the graph using the fewest possible colours. The minimum number of colours will tell us how many timetables periods we will need: each colour represents a set of classes with no overlap in students, so they can all happen simultaneously (同时地).
This may tell you how I solved my friend’s problem: I suggested they draw a graph represent each character with a point, and join two characters with a line if they appeared in any scenes together. Colouring this graph minimally then told them exactly how many actors they would need to stage the play. Another victory for maths — on with the show!
12. What worried the author’s friend most?
A. The lack of towering actors. B. The numerous scene changes.
C. The tight budget for costumes. D. The scene conflicts of the same actor.
13. Which of the following best illustrates the example in paragraph 2?
B: Blue G: Green R: Red Y: Yellow
A. B.
C. D.
14. What does the author intend to do in paragraph 3?
A. Clarify an assumption. B. Present an application.
C. Introduce an approach. D. Analyze a phenomenon.
15. How does the author sound in the last paragraph?
A. Proud. B. Serious. C. Hesitant. D. Authoritative.

Imagine it’s the dead of winter. A group of hedgehogs (刺猬) get together to share body heat, but they quickly withdraw as their quills (刺) hurt one another when they get too close. As the cold weather sinks in, the hedgehogs get together again, and withdraw again. ____16____: do they tolerate the cold in isolation (孤立) or share the pain? This is the hedgehog’s dilemma, invented by German philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer in 1851.
Today, the hedgehog’s dilemma is widely known for its examination of complex questions about human connection and isolation. It is a metaphor for human closeness. Hedgehogs get together for warmth, while we for love and affection. ____17____. Insensitive words and poor decisions are the sharp quills we use to stab one another. The closer we get to a person, the greater mutual harm.
People with an avoidant attachment style tend to guard themselves against human hedgehogs’ quills. They prefer the pain of loneliness. Contrarily, the anxious attachment style draws too close to the other hedgehogs. ____18____. Different as they seem, both types of people are trapped in a dilemma that prevents them meeting their emotional needs.
____19____. But it isn’t impossible to solve. Arthur Schopenhauer himself proposed that the key solution to the hedgehog’s dilemma is to find balance. Like the hedgehogs finally finding the right distance to keep warm without touching, people at two extremes of the dilemma must meet in the middle. So, if you find yourself overstepping or pulling away in your relationships, talk to your partner. ____20____. It will save you both a lot of needless suffering.
A. No one wants to compromise
B. Now they’re faced with the dilemma
C. The hedgehog problem is a tricky one
D. Understanding our own behavior is tough sometimes
E. In their search for closeness, they get hurt over and over again
F. Work together to identify a compromise that works for both of you
G. The cold winter is the loneliness we experience when we withdraw from society

It was freshman year and I wanted to explore the new and exciting electives (选修课) that I could enroll in and that my middle school didn’t offer. As I was carefully studying the list of what seemed like a million courses I could take, one stuck out: Interior Design. My mom and I watch HGTV every Sunday morning as we drink coffee. After watching so many of these shows, I was confident that I could design a whole house. What could go wrong? It’s just about colors, patterns, textures and furniture, right?
At the end of the semester, we were at the final stretch of the year, with only about a week left of regular classes before finals, and we were working on our final projects. The assignment was simple: “Design a 3D model of a room in your dream home.” “Perfect,” I thought to myself, “an easy 100 final grade.”
As I dived into my final project, I quickly realized that designing a 3D model of a room in my dream home was far from the piece of cake I had pictured. At first, I was overwhelmed by the complexity of the software. It wasn’t just about picking colors and arranging furniture; it was about understanding dimensions, angles, and lighting. Every time I thought I had a handle on it, something would go wrong. The walls wouldn’t arrange in a line, the furniture would float in mid-air, and the colors I chose looked nothing like they did on-screen.
My anxiety began to grow. I found myself staying up late into the night, staring at my computer screen, and feeling more and more frustrated with each passing minute. I started to doubt myself. What if I wasn’t cut out for this? What if I failed the course because of this one project?
