【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍伦敦维多利亚与阿尔伯特博物馆打造全新仓储式展厅,让观众近距离接触藏品,开创博物馆与公众互动的新模式。
11.K. novel
解析:空格前有冠词“a(n)”,后接名词“space”,需要形容词修饰。根据上下文“the museum is trying something new”可知,博物馆正在尝试新事物,因此“novel”(新颖的)符合语境,表示“一个新颖的空间”。
12.H. transformed
解析:主语“the museum”与宾语“a warehouse”之间需要及物动词,表示“将仓库改造成……”。 “transformed”(转变、改造)常与“into”搭配,且后文提到改造后的空间是“climate-controlled exhibition and research venue”,因此“transformed”最贴合。
13.B. exhibits
解析:前文提到“objects and library books”,且空格前有“the”,需要名词。 “exhibits”(展品)与“objects”对应,且“without any ropes... separating them from the exhibits”意为“没有绳索或玻璃将游客与展品隔开”,符合博物馆开放展品的描述。
14.E. randomly
解析:空格修饰动词“arranged”,需要副词。后文“without regard for their geographical origins...”说明物品的排列没有特定顺序,因此“randomly”(随机地)最恰当。
15.I. thorough
解析:空格修饰名词“understanding”,需要形容词。前文提到游客可以近距离观察物品背面、内部等细节,这种体验能带来“thorough”(彻底的、全面的)理解,强调深度。
16.F. encounters
解析:空格前有“close and direct”,需要名词。 “encounters”(接触、相遇)指游客与展品的直接互动,后文“reveal details... hidden behind glass cases”进一步说明这种接触的价值。
17.A. access
解析:固定搭配“give access to”(提供接触/进入的机会)。前文提到“unrestricted”(无限制的),与“access”搭配恰当,表示“几乎无限制地接触展品”。
18.C. chapter
解析:空格前有“a new”,需要名词。 “chapter”本义为“章节”,引申为“新阶段”。后文“marks a new chapter in the way museums engage...”表示“标志着博物馆与藏品互动方式的新篇章”。
19.D. share
解析:主语“the... of works on display”需要名词。 “share”此处为名词,意为“份额、比例”。前文提到97%的藏品在库存中,因此“展出的作品比例可能进一步下降”符合逻辑。
20.G. delivered
解析:被动语态“be delivered to”(被送到)。前文“request it”指游客请求近距离观察某件文物,后文“to a special room”说明文物会被“交付”到特定房间,因此“delivered”正确。

Why Are Photos Taken During Blue Hour?
As a professional photographer, I've taken many of my favorite pictures at blue hour--the time of day before sunrise or after sunset when the atmosphere has a deep, dark blue color. Blue hour is not really an hour--its exact length depends on your location, time of year, and weather conditions. The important thing is that the sun is a(n) 11 ______ way beneath the horizon so the sky has neither too many nor too few sunrise or sunset colors--mainly just blue.
There are reasons why blue hour is so precious. First, not as many people take photos at blue hour compared to sunrise and sunset. This gives you the chance to capture appealing images at popular locations with limited or even zero crowds. Second, blue hour seizes certain emotions in the scenes that are 12 _____ tricky to express. The color blue carries its own unique emotional expression: sadness, peace, and so on. If your photo 13______ such emotional expression, it's hard to ignore this time of day. Third, blue hour combines tones of a photo into an integrated whole. I once struggled to keep colors in my photos in 14 _______for the best possible results but failed. Fortunately, the magic power of blue hour helps to 15 _______that. Green trees, yellow flowers and red rocks all appear some kind of blue—16 ________colors go along well in the images taken at that time. Fourth, there is possibility that other 17________ of light, such as warm light from buildings, create an important circumstance when portions of your photo do not turn blue during the blue hour. In such a case, your photo has a beautiful orange-blue color 18________ —a lovely flavor beyond its previous harmonious presence. However, there is usually only a brief window when the natural and artificial lights are about the same brightness, so a(n) 19 _______ click of the camera button is the critical step to make for the most even exposure between them.
In spite of the careful techniques and right settings the blue hour photography requires, it 20 _____ you with great pictures. The emotions of blue hour do not work for each scene or photo, but when they do, you will be amazed.

China’s first robot Peking Opera has drawn attention for its costumes, classic pieces, and the team-up between a fully made-up robot and a human performer.
Videos from the first show of Farewell My Concubine (《霸王别姬》) show “Scholar 01,” China’s first robot doctoral student, stepping onstage. Dressed as the historical ____11____ Xiang Yu, the robot moves, raises its arms, and shifts its eyes to the beat of music, performing alongside Wu Xiaofeng, a Peking Opera major.
Those videos triggered widespread discussion. For some audience, the performance was “full of futuristic charm,” an inventive____12____of traditional opera and cutting-edge technology. Others questioned whether a machine, however____13____, could truly belong on a stage for which human performers have spent their whole lives training.
Yet what ____14____on stage touched something deeper than the novelty of a robot in face paint. The interaction of human breath and machine code suggested a(n) ____15____ possibility: That technology might extend beyond the languages of traditional operas.
The robot’s ____16____added a strange clarity to the unique movements that have defined Peking Opera for centuries. Wen Mu, the director of the performance, stated it aimed to offer a glimpse of what a data-driven interpretation of the form could look like. One that can be repeated, fine-tuned and built upon in ways no human body would tolerate. And beyond the mechanics, the integration of robotics and Peking Opera is____17____ new life into the ancient art, drawing in youngsters.
After the performance, teenagers who had never watched a full traditional opera suddenly found themselves discussing face-painting styles. Whatever one makes of the aesthetics (审美), it is clear that the production succeeded in ____18____ the conversation around Peking Opera. A robot dressed as Xiang Yu does offer younger and global audiences an accessible doorway into a dense, centuries-old tradition. For a cultural form that is so often ____19____ “too distant,” this is no small achievement.
And perhaps that is where the Shanghai experiment lands most thoughtfully as a reminder that the future of an ancient art depends on how carefully its devoted protectors ____20____ progress and preservation. Robotics can enrich the stage, but it should not replace the human instinct and emotional intelligence on which Peking Opera’s survival depends.

Listening to the Elements
In the world of contemporary classical music, few composers have explored cultural dialogue as quietly and persistently as Qigang Chen.

One of his most widely performed works, Wu Xing (The Five Elements), offers a marvellous example of how ____12____ wisdom can be reinterpreted for modern audience.
Completed in the late 1990s, Wu Xing is a five-movement orchestral piece (管弦乐曲) inspired by the traditional Chinese concept that views the universe as a dynamic ____13____ of five forces: metal, wood, water, fire and earth. Instead of treating these elements as ____14____ symbols, Chen presents them as part of a continuous cycle in which each generates the next. This idea of movement and transformation lies at the heart of the composition.
The work opens not with a(n) ____15____ statement but with reserve.

It implies that cultural exchange in music does not depend on grand display, but on patience, discipline and a(n) ____20____ to transformation. And in that silence between sounds, something new is born.

China’s Spring Festival Gala Becomes Super Bowl-like Stage for Humanoid (像人的) Robots
Humanoid robots have undoubtedly taken center stage at this year’s CMG (China Media Group) Spring Festival Gala — the world’s most-watched TV show in celebration of the Chinese New Year. For the robotics industry, this isn’t just a performance. It is a high-risk product ____11____ to billions of viewers.
This year, four Chinese powerhouse startups brought their most advanced humanoids to the stage. Their performances covered many aspects of human life — from energetic martial arts and rhythmic dancing to short funny plays and daily life scenes.
The ____12____ nature of the Gala makes it the ultimate “stress test” for robotics. On a stage filled with moving objects, hundreds of dancers and unpredictable lighting, there is no “reset” button.
For this challenge, robots once again amazed the world with ____13____ movements and excellent stability — demonstrating well-balanced landings after running, kicking, and jumping from springboards. It is a huge ____14____ from last year, when their H1 robots finished a “Handkerchief Dance” with cautious movements and required human assistance just to exit the stage.
This shift is an evident proof that the industry has moved from pre-programmed “puppets (傀儡)” to ____15____ machines powered by advanced stability algorithms (算法).
Spring Festival Gala has become more than a technical display. For the first time, robots weren’t just guest performers. Rather, they were ____16____ to the Chinese tradition of Tuanyuan, or reunion.
In the short funny play, Noetix’s “Bumi” robot took part in a family scene, ____17____ using humor to bridge the gap between machine and companion.
This year also signaled a shift from early models to the ____18____. As Noetix CMO Zhang Miao explained to the press, if 2025 was about the race to mass-produce, 2026 is about the race to deliver. “The focus has moved from the factory floor to the commercial channel, where the real ____19____ of a company’s health is no longer how many robots it can build, but how many it can successfully integrate into real-world scenes,” Zhang said.
A new era of robotics is now taking shape — and it is ____20____ rooted in China.

Reading the trees
By analysing variations in tree rings across forests worldwide, Neil Pederson and his team at Columbia University’s Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory have constructed an extensive climatic record, tracing patterns of drought and rainfall over hundreds to thousands of years. Their work is based on the principle that tree rings ____11____ annual growth conditions: larger rings usually indicate wetter periods, while smaller ones suggest drought.
In 2010, while investigating the effects of climate change over the past twenty years in Mongolia, the team ____12____ encountered a group of pines (松树) in the Khorgo lava (熔岩) fields. Although their ____13____ aim was to study the impact of climate change on wildfires in Mongolia’s forests, this accidental discovery soon became the focus of their research. The site’s volcanic landscape and harsh climate created conditions in which the dead pines could remain ____14____ for centuries, offering the team another research project: creating a record of climate change by reading the pine-rings.
As they were ____15____ for time, the researchers sampled just eighteen pines. Despite the limited samples, some of their cross sections, pieces of trunks made by cutting across them, ____16____ signs of great age. One Siberian pine alone contained nearly 800 rings, indicating eleven centuries of growth. The tree-ring record suggested that the site might have undergone unusually long environmental changes. Moreover, just by looking at the unusual ____17____ of these old trees — wider bases, winding trunks, and signs of regrowth, the researchers were able to identify their great age.
To get records of wetness, the Pederson’s team cross-dated (交叉年代测定) the different trees and ____18____ patterns of large and small rings through time. They combined their newly found samples with the earlier collections, gradually building a(n) ____19____ record of the region’s tree ages and its climatic context.
What began as a short field trip with a different research goal finally produced detailed data of Mongolia’s drought and rainfall periods over about 1,100 years, well beyond the region’s previous ____20____.

How Knitting May Be Rewiring Your Brain
Knitting — and other so-called “grandma hobbies” — is making a comeback, especially among younger generations. According to Eventbrite data, Gen Z’s interest in “granny core” gatherings, such as knitting ___11___ and needlework workshops, has grown in recent months, driven in part by a search for relief from digital burnout.
But the benefits go beyond nostalgia (怀旧). Recent studies suggest that slow, hands-on tasks, such as knitting, may activate brain systems in ways that support long-term cognitive health in various ways, including engaging memory, attention, and motor function, while helping to regulate stress. In other words, regardless of age or gender, engaging in hands-on, mentally ___12___ hobbies — whether knitting, wood carving, or model building — may be one of the simplest ways to support brain health.
While meditation and puzzles also offer brain benefits, knitting uniquely combines ___13___ motor coordination, creative planning, and rhythmic two-sided movement — all of which engage different brain systems at once. This kind of creativity in any capacity is helpful, says Emily Sharp, a ___14___ therapist at NY Art Therapy.
A 2024 study in Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience supports the outlook, demonstrating how creative activities activate the brain’s dopaminergic reward network, particularly in areas deeply involved in pleasure, motivation, and mood. But unlike the dopamine rises caused by scrolling or sugar, knitting provides a slower, steadier ___15___.
Plus, since activities like knitting require planning, ___16___ and problem-solving, they activate executive function alongside motor and emotional systems. This full-brain engagement helps strengthen neural (神经的) connectivity, a crucial tool for maintaining the brain’s flexibility and resilience as we age.
If you are already an accomplished knitter, don’t ___17___ yourself on the back just yet. The cognitive benefits of activities like knitting aren’t about the task itself — they’re about the process of learning something new.
Novelty (新颖) ___18___. When you challenge the brain with unfamiliar tasks, such as learning to knit, it lights up new pathways, offering a unique neurological boost. With time and repetition, those same actions become fluent and calming, allowing the brain to shift into a restorative flow state. This challenge-to-mastery process helps maintain neural ___19___. However, you must continually ___20___ the challenges for your brain as you master old ones. The good news? The cognitive challenge doesn’t have to be big.

Learn Chinese in One Word
In recent years, people have talked a lot about the word “they” in English. Many believe this is helpful because it includes both males and females. Yet, English is not the only language that has been experimenting with a(n) ____11____ expression. French speakers often use “iel,” a combination of “il” (he) and “elle” (she). In Chinese, there is also an interesting idea. In 2015, some internet users suggested a new written form: X也.
By combining the letter “X” with parts of the Chinese characters used for “he” and “she”, this symbol still reads as “ta” used for both men and women in spoken Chinese. In this ____12____, the new symbol does not change how people speak. Instead, it formalizes something that already exists in the language. After the character was added to Unicode, the international system for digital text, it became easier to type. This helped the wider ____13____ of the symbol online.
However, the situation in English is different. In English, some people still feel ____14____ with “they”. Many speakers insist that “they” should only refer to more than one person instead of singular words like “someone”. Chinese is different. Since the spoken language already uses one sound for both genders, the new symbol is a(n) ____15____ visual change.
This small change in writing also highlights something curious about the Chinese language on a(n) ____16____ scale. The language relies heavily on context to express meaning. It has no word exactly like the English article “the,” and time is often understood from the situation rather than from verb endings. Therefore, Chinese can express ideas with surprising ____17____, using only a few words. For example, a long sentence such as “The relationships among the Seven Warring States were constantly changing” can be presented as “Relationship between Warring States is constant change.”
English, despite its reputation for accuracy, ____18____ leaves much to context. Verbs in English have only three endings: “-s”, “-ing” and “-ed”. Compared with languages like Russian, where verbs have more than 60 endings, English grammar looks quite ____19____. Learning a new language therefore goes beyond learning new vocabulary. It also means understanding how meaning is _____20_____ in different languages.

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了中英两种语言在性别中性表达上的不同演变方式,并对比了汉语与英语在语境依赖、语法简洁度上的语言特点。
【11题详解】
考查形容词。句意:然而,英语并不是唯一一种一直在尝试性别中性表达的语言。空处需填形容词作作定语,上文提到 “they”可同时指代男性和女性,具有包容性,因此此处指性别中性的表达,gender-neutral表示“性别中性的”,符合句意。故填D。
【12题详解】
考查名词。句意:在这方面,这个新符号并没有改变人们的说话方式。空处需填名词作宾语,根据前文“this symbol still reads as “ta” used for both men and women in spoken Chinese”可知,这个符号读音仍为“ta”,在汉语口语中可同时指代男性和女性,说明在这方面,这个新符号并没有改变人们的说话方式。固定搭配in this respect表示“在这方面,从这一点来看”。故填G。
【13题详解】
考查名词。句意:这有助于该符号在网络上更广泛地被采用。空处需填名词作宾语,根据后文“ the symbol online”及前文提到该字形被加入国际数字编码,更易输入,因此促进了它的普及和使用。adoption表示“采用,采纳”。故填A。
【14题详解】
考查形容词。句意:在英语中,有些人仍然对使用单数“they”感到不舒服。空处需填形容词作表语,根据后文“Many speakers insist that “they” should only refer to more than one person instead of singular words like “someone””提到很多人认为“they”只能指复数,说明他们对此用法感到不适、别扭,uncomfortable表示“不舒服的”。故填K。
【15题详解】
考查副词。句意:由于汉语口语中两种性别本就同音,这个新符号只是纯粹的视觉变化。空处需填副词修饰形容词visual,强调变化仅仅、纯粹停留在书写层面,purely表示“纯粹地”,符合句意。故填F。
【16题详解】
考查形容词。句意:这一书写上的微小变化,也在更广泛的层面凸显了汉语的奇妙特点。空处需填形容词修饰名词scale,短语on a broad scale为固定搭配,表示“广泛地,大规模地”。故填B。
【17题详解】
考查名词。句意:因此,汉语能用极少的词语,以惊人的简洁性表达思想。空处需填名词,根据后文“using only a few words”可知,汉语表达简洁高效,economy在此表示 “简洁、简练、节约措辞”。故填C。
【18题详解】
考查副词。句意:尽管英语以精准著称,它同样在很大程度上依赖语境。空处需填副词修饰动词leaves,将英语与汉语对比,表示“同样地”也依靠上下文理解意思,similarly “同样地”符合题意。故填I。
【19题详解】
考查形容词。句意:相比俄语动词有六十多种词形变化,英语语法看起来十分简洁。空处需填形容词作表语,与俄语动词的复杂变化对比,英语语法更简单、简洁,spare在此表示 “简朴的”。故填 J。
【20题详解】
考查动词被动语态。句意:这也意味着要理解不同语言中意义是如何被组织表达的。空处需填过去分词,与be动词构成被动语态,此处表示意义在语言中被“梳理、组织、构建”,用过去分词organized。故填E。

I Killed Color on My Phone
A few months ago, I began to be worried that I was devoting too many hours to online videos. So, when I read an article about the ____11____ of switching one’s phone to a black-and-white color mode, I figured I’d give it a try.
The result was shocking. The moment I switched, I no longer felt a(n) ____12____ need to look at my phone. The number of hours I spent per day on the phone dropped 40 percent, to four hours and 40 minutes per day — still embarrassingly high, but not the dizzying eight-plus hours I was ____13____.
There are some small ____14____ to my black-and-white online life. Because the answer and decline buttons on my phone are both gray, I’ll sometimes hang up on a call I want to answer. Fortunately, these days, nobody minds if you just call them back. Besides, games weren’t as fun, so I started playing them on my pad and discovered that I liked the separation between work and play that it ____15____: phone for boring stuff; pad for fun. And I’ve found that whenever I return to color, even ____16____, I am desperate to turn it off again as quickly as possible. With my eyes no longer used to the brightness, I now find the phone’s colors to be too vivid, too ____17____.
Two and a half months into this journey, my phone usage remains about four hours per day. And I’m pretty sure I’ll never go back to color on my phone. I feel like turning off color on my phone made me more aware and more ____18____ of the color and beauty in real life. Now that I am no longer turning to my phone for fun, I find myself ____19____ it out in other ways — reading more books, watching more movies, planning more gatherings with friends, hanging out with my kids. And those are things I do want to be ____20____ to.

【13题详解】
考查现在分词。句意:我每天花在手机上的时间减少了40%,降到了每天4小时40分钟——虽然这个时间还是相当多的,但已经不再是之前我平均每天用的令人头晕的8个多小时了。根据“not the dizzying eight-plus hours(不再是令人头晕的8个多小时)”可知,此处是指之前“平均”每天8小时用手机的时间。用现在分词averaging与was搭配构成过去进行时描述故去某段时间内持续发生的动作,表示“我(当时)平均每天使用8小时”。故选C项。
【14题详解】
考查名词。句意:我的这种黑白分明的网络生活也有一些小小的不足之处。根据下文“Because the answer and decline buttons on my phone are both gray, I’ll sometimes hang up on a call I want to answer.(因为我的手机上接听和拒接的按钮都是灰色的,所以我有时会误挂掉本想接听的电话。)”可知,下文列举的是一些不方便的地方,所以此处用downsides表示“缺点”或“不利之处”的词。故选G项。
【15题详解】
考查动词。句意:此外,游戏也不再那么有趣了,于是我开始在平板电脑上玩这些游戏,并发现它所营造的工作与娱乐的界限分明的氛围让我很喜欢:手机用于处理繁琐事务;平板电脑则用于娱乐活动。根据下文“phone for boring stuff; pad for fun(手机用于处理繁琐事务;平板电脑则用于娱乐活动)”可知,这种模式“强制”或“规定”了手机和平板的不同用途。enforced是动词的过去式,意为“强制”符合句意。故选H项。
【16题详解】
考查副词。句意:我发现,每当我恢复色彩,即使是短暂的,我都迫切希望尽快再次关闭它。根据下文“I am desperate to turn it off again as quickly as possible.(我迫切希望尽快把它关掉)”可知,此处是指哪怕“短暂地”调回彩色。副词briefly表示“短暂地”符合句意。故选F项。
【17题详解】
考查形容词。句意:由于我的眼睛不再适应强光环境了,现在我觉得手机上的色彩太过鲜艳、太过刺眼了。根据上文“With my eyes no longer used to the brightness(我的眼睛不再适应强光环境)”可知,此处是指颜色太“刺眼”。blinding表示“刺眼的”符合句意。故选E项。
【18题详解】
考查形容词。句意:我觉得关闭手机上的色彩功能让我更加敏锐地察觉到现实生活中的色彩之美,并且也更加欣赏这种美了。根据下文“the color and beauty in real life(现实生活中的色彩之美)”可知,此处是指更“欣赏”这种美。appreciative表示“欣赏的”符合句意。故选B项。
【19题详解】
考查现在分词。句意:如今我不再通过手机来消遣娱乐了,于是便开始以其他方式来寻求娱乐——读更多的书、看更多的电影、与朋友策划更多的聚会、与孩子一起玩耍。根据下文“reading more books, watching more movies, planning more gatherings with friends, hanging out with my kids.(读更多的书、看更多的电影、与朋友策划更多的聚会、与孩子一起玩耍)”可知,此处是指以其他方式“寻求”娱乐。seeking是现在分词做宾补表示“寻求”。故选J项。

The Fall of the Roman Empire

The question of why the Western Roman Empire ended has fascinated historians for generations, ____12____ a debate that is nowhere near reaching an agreement. In 1984, German historian Alexander Demandt drew up a list of more than two hundred factors that have been cited to explain Rome’s fall — a fall ____13____ blamed on internal corruption (腐败).
Other scholars have pointed to more specific reasons. Some have focused on the evolution of the Roman economy, which struggled to expand by the third century A.D. because of ____14____ on enslaved (受奴役的) people for labor. Ongoing military conflicts and civil wars that broke out from the third century on played a part too, weakening central authority and causing the empire to break apart, leaving it more ____15____ to external threats.
In recent years, however, a (n) ____16____ theory has emerged, highlighting the impact of climatic changes and disease outbreaks. In a work published in 2017, classics professor Kyle Harper argues that the rise and fall of Rome was shaped not only by emperors, generals, soldiers and slaves, but also by viruses, volcanoes and solar cycles. It is a story in which humanity and the environment cannot be ____17____.
Harper and other scholars have drawn on climate and widespread-disease data, which have opened up new ____18____ of research into the study of the past. The data suggest that the ____19____ conditions of the empire in the first century B.C. favored agricultural, economic, and population growth. But they became more variable with a trend toward cooling and drought, which impacted agricultural productivity. This crisis was compounded by another ____20____ natural phenomenon: epidemics (时疫). From the latter half of the second century on, epidemics emerged that affected the whole Roman Empire with unmatched intensity.

The Surprising Truth about Body Fat
If you melted down the average UK adult, you would find around 22 kilograms of creamy yellow fat. It’s 11 to around 88 pieces of butter and enough to fill two-thirds of a small suitcase or cast into 446 dinner candles.
What a disturbing thought! People have long 12 body fat as nothing more than extra weight, something to get rid of. Yet this unwanted fat is undergoing a thorough 13 . Far from an inactive burden, it is a dynamic organ with its own memory and is capable of influencing everything from appetite to immunity (免疫).
Due to limited research resources, early studies could only 14 describe fat as a single store for extra calories, failing to recognize its role as a smart regulator of our body. Fat, it turns out, isn’t a single thing. Containing a mix of protective cells, nerves and blood vessels (血管), it has developed into something 15 into the overall control of blood sugar, body temperature and other bodily functions.
The first 16 that we were underestimating our body fat came in the 1990s with the discovery of leptin, a hormone released by fat cells which acts on the brain to control appetite and 17 energy consumption. On the contrary, when people quickly lose fat, leptin levels drop, which the brain interprets as a sign that energy stores might be 18 low. It responds by strengthening hunger signals and reducing energy loss to help people regain that lost fat.
The discovery of leptin revealed a hidden network between fat and the rest of the body. Since then, we have discovered that fat cells release many more hormones and other signaling chemicals, gradually proving our old opinions are 19 wrong. Some scientists are even dedicated to 20 it instead — not just to tackle weight problems, but to improve our broader health.

【11题详解】
考查名词。句意:这相当于大约88块黄油,足以填满三分之二个小行李箱,或者铸成446支晚餐蜡烛。结合前文“around 22 kilograms of creamy yellow fat”和后文“88 pieces of butter”,此处表示“等价于、相当于”,名词equivalent(对应选项B)符合语境,固定搭配be equivalent to表示“与……等价”。故选B。
【12题详解】
考查动词。句意:人们长期以来一直认为体脂只不过是多余的重量,是需要摆脱的东西。结合后文“nothing more than extra weight, something to get rid of”,可知人们对体脂持否定态度,动词dismissed(对应选项C),表示“摒弃、认为……无价值”,符合语境,且此处为现在完成时,用过去分词形式。故选C。
【13题详解】
考查名词。句意:然而,这种不受欢迎的脂肪正在经历彻底的重新评估。结合前文人们对体脂的传统认知,以及后文“Far from an inactive burden, it is a dynamic organ”,可知人们对体脂的看法发生了改变,正在重新评估它,名词reassessment(对应选项H),表示“重新评估”,符合语境。故选H。

This London Museum Lets You Order Objects
Visitors to museums usually see only a small part of their large collections. But the Victoria and Albert Museum (V&A) in London is trying something new. Last month, the museum introduced a(n) (11)______ space where visitors can enjoy more of its historically and culturally significant pieces that showcase 5,000 years of human creativity.
The museum has (12)______ a warehouse into a climate-controlled exhibition and research venue called the V&A East Storehouse. There, guests can get an up-close look at over 250,000 objects and 350,000 library books - without any ropes, protective glass or guards separating them from the (13)______.
Located on the site of the 2012 Summer Olympics, the building is a love letter to objects. The items are arranged (14)______ on rows of metal shelves, without regard for their geographical origins, time period or medium. By seeing the back of an object, looking inside a dress, or examining the bottom of a pot, visitors can make insightful observations, gaining a(n) (15)______ understanding of material culture. Such close and direct (16)______ can reveal details that are often hidden behind glass cases, turning observation into discovery.
By giving the public nearly unrestricted (17)______ to the objects, the manager of the museum hoped that the space would allow visitors to form a closer bond with the collection. More broadly, the storehouse marks a new (18)______ in the way museums engage with their their collections. An estimated 97 percent of museum artifacts (手工艺品) remain in storage at anygiven time, and the (19)______ of works on display may decline further as museums keep adding new items - unless they build more exhibition space.If visitors would like to get a closer look at an artifact or even touch it, they can request it be (20)______ to a special room.

AI That Talks to Itself Learns Faster and Smarter
Talking to yourself may feel uniquely human, but it turns out this habit can also help machines learn. (11) ______ dialogue helps people organize ideas, weigh choices, and make sense of emotions. New research shows that a similar process can improve how AI learns and adapts. The researchers found that AI systems perform better across many tasks when they are trained to use inner speech alongside short-term memory. The findings suggest that learning is shaped not only by the structure of an AI system, but also by how it (12) ______ with itself during training.
How Self Talk Improves AI Performance
To test this idea, the researchers combined self-directed internal speech with a specialized working memory system. This approach allowed their AI models to learn more (13) ______ adjust to unfamiliar situations, and handle multiple tasks at once. The results showed clear improvements in flexibility and overall performance compared with systems that relied on memory alone.
Building AI That Can Generalize
A central goal of the team's work is content-agnostic (与内容无关的) information processing. This refers to the ability to apply learned skills beyond the exact situations encountered during training, using general rules rather than (14) ______ examples.
Why Working Memory (15) ______
The researchers began by examining memory design in AI models, focusing on working memory and its role in generalization. By testing tasks with different levels of difficulty, the team compared (16) ______ memory structures.
They found that models with multiple working memory slots (内存插槽) performed better on (17) ______ problems, such as reversing sequences (顺序) or recreating patterns. These tasks require holding several pieces of information at once and processing them in the correct order.
When the team added (18) ______ that encouraged the system to talk to itself a specific number of times, performance improved even further. The biggest (19) ______ appeared during multitasking and in tasks that required many steps.
The combined system is particularly exciting because it (20) ______ learning efficiency while using far less training data. It could pave the way for more flexible, human-like AI systems.

Why Are Photos Taken During Blue Hour?
As a professional photographer, I've taken many of my favorite pictures at blue hour--the time of day before sunrise or after sunset when the atmosphere has a deep, dark blue color. Blue hour is not really an hour--its exact length depends on your location, time of year, and weather conditions. The important thing is that the sun is a(n) 11 ______ way beneath the horizon so the sky has neither too many nor too few sunrise or sunset colors--mainly just blue.
There are reasons why blue hour is so precious. First, not as many people take photos at blue hour compared to sunrise and sunset. This gives you the chance to capture appealing images at popular locations with limited or even zero crowds. Second, blue hour seizes certain emotions in the scenes that are 12 _____ tricky to express. The color blue carries its own unique emotional expression: sadness, peace, and so on. If your photo 13______ such emotional expression, it's hard to ignore this time of day. Third, blue hour combines tones of a photo into an integrated whole. I once struggled to keep colors in my photos in 14 _______for the best possible results but failed. Fortunately, the magic power of blue hour helps to 15 _______that. Green trees, yellow flowers and red rocks all appear some kind of blue—16 ________colors go along well in the images taken at that time. Fourth, there is possibility that other 17________ of light, such as warm light from buildings, create an important circumstance when portions of your photo do not turn blue during the blue hour. In such a case, your photo has a beautiful orange-blue color 18________ —a lovely flavor beyond its previous harmonious presence. However, there is usually only a brief window when the natural and artificial lights are about the same brightness, so a(n) 19 _______ click of the camera button is the critical step to make for the most even exposure between them.
In spite of the careful techniques and right settings the blue hour photography requires, it 20 _____ you with great pictures. The emotions of blue hour do not work for each scene or photo, but when they do, you will be amazed.

China’s first robot Peking Opera has drawn attention for its costumes, classic pieces, and the team-up between a fully made-up robot and a human performer.
Videos from the first show of Farewell My Concubine (《霸王别姬》) show “Scholar 01,” China’s first robot doctoral student, stepping onstage. Dressed as the historical ____11____ Xiang Yu, the robot moves, raises its arms, and shifts its eyes to the beat of music, performing alongside Wu Xiaofeng, a Peking Opera major.
Those videos triggered widespread discussion. For some audience, the performance was “full of futuristic charm,” an inventive____12____of traditional opera and cutting-edge technology. Others questioned whether a machine, however____13____, could truly belong on a stage for which human performers have spent their whole lives training.
Yet what ____14____on stage touched something deeper than the novelty of a robot in face paint. The interaction of human breath and machine code suggested a(n) ____15____ possibility: That technology might extend beyond the languages of traditional operas.
The robot’s ____16____added a strange clarity to the unique movements that have defined Peking Opera for centuries. Wen Mu, the director of the performance, stated it aimed to offer a glimpse of what a data-driven interpretation of the form could look like. One that can be repeated, fine-tuned and built upon in ways no human body would tolerate. And beyond the mechanics, the integration of robotics and Peking Opera is____17____ new life into the ancient art, drawing in youngsters.
After the performance, teenagers who had never watched a full traditional opera suddenly found themselves discussing face-painting styles. Whatever one makes of the aesthetics (审美), it is clear that the production succeeded in ____18____ the conversation around Peking Opera. A robot dressed as Xiang Yu does offer younger and global audiences an accessible doorway into a dense, centuries-old tradition. For a cultural form that is so often ____19____ “too distant,” this is no small achievement.
And perhaps that is where the Shanghai experiment lands most thoughtfully as a reminder that the future of an ancient art depends on how carefully its devoted protectors ____20____ progress and preservation. Robotics can enrich the stage, but it should not replace the human instinct and emotional intelligence on which Peking Opera’s survival depends.

Listening to the Elements
In the world of contemporary classical music, few composers have explored cultural dialogue as quietly and persistently as Qigang Chen. Born in Shanghai and trained in France, Chen has spent decades ____11____ Chinese philosophical ideas into a musical language of Western traditions. One of his most widely performed works, Wu Xing (The Five Elements), offers a marvellous example of how ____12____ wisdom can be reinterpreted for modern audience.
Completed in the late 1990s, Wu Xing is a five-movement orchestral piece (管弦乐曲) inspired by the traditional Chinese concept that views the universe as a dynamic ____13____ of five forces: metal, wood, water, fire and earth. Instead of treating these elements as ____14____ symbols, Chen presents them as part of a continuous cycle in which each generates the next. This idea of movement and transformation lies at the heart of the composition.
The work opens not with a(n) ____15____ statement but with reserve. Slight changes in texture and colour suggest the flow of water, while later movements introduce sharper rhythms and brighter sounds to indicate fire and metal. Chen avoids directly ____16____ traditional Chinese music. For him, tradition is not something to be directly displayed but something to be absorbed and reshaped. He uses the full resources of a Western orchestra to ____17____ qualities such as weight, flow and tension. In doing so, he invites listeners to experience the philosophy ____18____ rather than intellectually.
At a time when global culture is often ____19____ to easy labels, Chen’s work offers a quieter alternative. Wu Xing does not explain the five elements; it listens to them. It implies that cultural exchange in music does not depend on grand display, but on patience, discipline and a(n) ____20____ to transformation. And in that silence between sounds, something new is born.

China’s Spring Festival Gala Becomes Super Bowl-like Stage for Humanoid (像人的) Robots
Humanoid robots have undoubtedly taken center stage at this year’s CMG (China Media Group) Spring Festival Gala — the world’s most-watched TV show in celebration of the Chinese New Year. For the robotics industry, this isn’t just a performance. It is a high-risk product ____11____ to billions of viewers.
This year, four Chinese powerhouse startups brought their most advanced humanoids to the stage. Their performances covered many aspects of human life — from energetic martial arts and rhythmic dancing to short funny plays and daily life scenes.
The ____12____ nature of the Gala makes it the ultimate “stress test” for robotics. On a stage filled with moving objects, hundreds of dancers and unpredictable lighting, there is no “reset” button.
For this challenge, robots once again amazed the world with ____13____ movements and excellent stability — demonstrating well-balanced landings after running, kicking, and jumping from springboards. It is a huge ____14____ from last year, when their H1 robots finished a “Handkerchief Dance” with cautious movements and required human assistance just to exit the stage.
This shift is an evident proof that the industry has moved from pre-programmed “puppets (傀儡)” to ____15____ machines powered by advanced stability algorithms (算法).
Spring Festival Gala has become more than a technical display. For the first time, robots weren’t just guest performers. Rather, they were ____16____ to the Chinese tradition of Tuanyuan, or reunion.
In the short funny play, Noetix’s “Bumi” robot took part in a family scene, ____17____ using humor to bridge the gap between machine and companion.
This year also signaled a shift from early models to the ____18____. As Noetix CMO Zhang Miao explained to the press, if 2025 was about the race to mass-produce, 2026 is about the race to deliver. “The focus has moved from the factory floor to the commercial channel, where the real ____19____ of a company’s health is no longer how many robots it can build, but how many it can successfully integrate into real-world scenes,” Zhang said.
A new era of robotics is now taking shape — and it is ____20____ rooted in China.

Reading the trees
By analysing variations in tree rings across forests worldwide, Neil Pederson and his team at Columbia University’s Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory have constructed an extensive climatic record, tracing patterns of drought and rainfall over hundreds to thousands of years. Their work is based on the principle that tree rings ____11____ annual growth conditions: larger rings usually indicate wetter periods, while smaller ones suggest drought.
In 2010, while investigating the effects of climate change over the past twenty years in Mongolia, the team ____12____ encountered a group of pines (松树) in the Khorgo lava (熔岩) fields. Although their ____13____ aim was to study the impact of climate change on wildfires in Mongolia’s forests, this accidental discovery soon became the focus of their research. The site’s volcanic landscape and harsh climate created conditions in which the dead pines could remain ____14____ for centuries, offering the team another research project: creating a record of climate change by reading the pine-rings.
As they were ____15____ for time, the researchers sampled just eighteen pines. Despite the limited samples, some of their cross sections, pieces of trunks made by cutting across them, ____16____ signs of great age. One Siberian pine alone contained nearly 800 rings, indicating eleven centuries of growth. The tree-ring record suggested that the site might have undergone unusually long environmental changes. Moreover, just by looking at the unusual ____17____ of these old trees — wider bases, winding trunks, and signs of regrowth, the researchers were able to identify their great age.
To get records of wetness, the Pederson’s team cross-dated (交叉年代测定) the different trees and ____18____ patterns of large and small rings through time. They combined their newly found samples with the earlier collections, gradually building a(n) ____19____ record of the region’s tree ages and its climatic context.
What began as a short field trip with a different research goal finally produced detailed data of Mongolia’s drought and rainfall periods over about 1,100 years, well beyond the region’s previous ____20____.

How Knitting May Be Rewiring Your Brain
Knitting — and other so-called “grandma hobbies” — is making a comeback, especially among younger generations. According to Eventbrite data, Gen Z’s interest in “granny core” gatherings, such as knitting ___11___ and needlework workshops, has grown in recent months, driven in part by a search for relief from digital burnout.
But the benefits go beyond nostalgia (怀旧). Recent studies suggest that slow, hands-on tasks, such as knitting, may activate brain systems in ways that support long-term cognitive health in various ways, including engaging memory, attention, and motor function, while helping to regulate stress. In other words, regardless of age or gender, engaging in hands-on, mentally ___12___ hobbies — whether knitting, wood carving, or model building — may be one of the simplest ways to support brain health.
While meditation and puzzles also offer brain benefits, knitting uniquely combines ___13___ motor coordination, creative planning, and rhythmic two-sided movement — all of which engage different brain systems at once. This kind of creativity in any capacity is helpful, says Emily Sharp, a ___14___ therapist at NY Art Therapy.
A 2024 study in Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience supports the outlook, demonstrating how creative activities activate the brain’s dopaminergic reward network, particularly in areas deeply involved in pleasure, motivation, and mood. But unlike the dopamine rises caused by scrolling or sugar, knitting provides a slower, steadier ___15___.
Plus, since activities like knitting require planning, ___16___ and problem-solving, they activate executive function alongside motor and emotional systems. This full-brain engagement helps strengthen neural (神经的) connectivity, a crucial tool for maintaining the brain’s flexibility and resilience as we age.
If you are already an accomplished knitter, don’t ___17___ yourself on the back just yet. The cognitive benefits of activities like knitting aren’t about the task itself — they’re about the process of learning something new.
Novelty (新颖) ___18___. When you challenge the brain with unfamiliar tasks, such as learning to knit, it lights up new pathways, offering a unique neurological boost. With time and repetition, those same actions become fluent and calming, allowing the brain to shift into a restorative flow state. This challenge-to-mastery process helps maintain neural ___19___. However, you must continually ___20___ the challenges for your brain as you master old ones. The good news? The cognitive challenge doesn’t have to be big.

Is vaping really safer than smoking?
What exactly is vaping, and why is it so popular among teens? Vaping is inhaling vapor (吸入雾气) through e-cigarette. It is ___11___ as an alternative smoking tobacco. There are likely several reasons why teens find vaping interesting. Vaping devices look cool, and who doesn’t like to look cool? Liquids for electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes) come in hundreds of ___12___ flavors such as mango, or strawberries and cream. Teens also think more about the here and now than the future. Here and now, vaping may be cool, but down the road, it’s not.
People see vaping as safe because they think that they’re just inhaling water vapor and tasty flavorings. But much more than that is going into their lungs. In fact, many different chemicals go into vape pods (烟弹). The liquid inside can contain heavy metals that cause lung damage. The chemical diacetyl (双乙酰), ___13___ in many e-liquids, causes popcorn lung, which makes breathing difficult. Signs of it can appear as little as two weeks after inhaling the chemical. The condition has no cure. The damage is ___14___.
More troubling is the presence of nicotine in the vapor. Nicotine makes people feel good but is very addicting. It reaches the brain 10 seconds after being inhaled. Once ___15___, people find it difficult to quit using it. The potential for nicotine addiction is higher in teens than adults because a teenager’s brain is still ___16___. Nicotine use during the teen years can affect one’s brain to become easily addicted to other drugs.
One vape pod can contain more nicotine than 20 cigarettes. Nicotine affects the length of time teens can pay attention, their ability to learn and their emotion ___17___. People addicted to nicotine are often anxious without the drug. Over time more and more is ___18___ to make them feel good.
But it’s never too late to quit. Ask friends and family to help. Don’t just plan to ___19___ the number of times you vape each day. Now is the time to drop your e-cigarette ____20____. If you get anxious, breathe deeply and focus on enjoying the air. Cutting vaping out of your life will make your body happier and healthier.

Social media: A double-edged Sword for Adolescents
Social media is offering significant opportunities alongside critical challenges. On the positive side, social platforms provide spaces for self-expression and meaningful connections. Adolescents can ____11____ mental health resources online, engage in supportive communities, and share personal stories. These interactions ____12____ conversations around mental health, reduce unfair labels, and encourage help-seeking behaviors.
However, these advantages are counterbalanced by ____13____ risks. Cyberbullying, social comparison, and the fear of missing out are widespread issues on most platforms. They often lead to heightened anxiety, depression, and weakened self-esteem among teenagers. The ____14____ lifestyle images shown online frequently make adolescents feel excluded from their social circles. Too much screen time and ____15____ to harmful content further worsen the situation, damaging their sleep quality, academic performance, and face-to-face social interactions. Adolescents with existing mental health conditions face even greater risks due to online discrimination and a lack of proper guidance.
To ____16____ these problems, a collective effort from policymakers, educators, parents and platform designers is greatly needed. Policymakers should establish clear regulations to ____17____ adolescents online, including stricter age checks and limits on harmful content. International cooperation is also necessary to create unified rules for global social platforms.
Educational institutions play a(n) ____18____ role in helping adolescents use social media responsibly. Schools can empower students to critically evaluate online content and manage screen time by integrating digital ____19____ and mental health education into school curricula. Schools can also set up peer support groups and offer counselling services to deal with related challenges early.
Parents should stay actively involved in their children’s digital lives by setting clear boundaries and communicating openly. Most importantly, social media platforms must _____20_____ user well-being in their designs. They can provide mental health support tools, content reminders and balanced usage guidance to protect young users. With joint efforts from all sides, society can make social media a positive force for the healthy mental development of adolescents.

New Label Helps Consumers Better Determine Food Quality
Determining whether food has spoiled can be a tricky task. The ___11___ over “use by” and “best before” labels often results in safe and consumable food being thrown out. This issue contributes significantly to the global food crisis, as roughly one-third of the food produced for the world is being wasted and millions of people in dozens of countries are facing ___12___ hunger each year. However, a groundbreaking invention called Mimica Touch aims to help tackle this crisis by providing a more accurate method of evaluating the safety of food ___13___.
Consisting of a label that transforms in texture (质地) when food spoils, Mimica Touch features a plastic sheet with raised lines inside a ___14___ that signal spoilt food. The plastic bumps (凸块) are covered with a thin layer of natural substance that ___15___ at the same rate as the food. When the substance turns from a solid state to a liquid state, the label transforms from firm and smooth to soft and bumpy, ___16___ that the food has gone bad.
Solveiga Pakštaité came up with the ___17___ for Mimica Touch while she was a student at Brunel University in London. The goal of the original project was to help people with ___18___ problems check the use-by date on packaged food. Pakštaité said she was inspired by banana skins, which change texture as they ___19___. Although Mimica Touch began as a university project, the invention has the potential to ____20____ reduce the huge quantity of food that goes to waste every year. Moreover, it could help consumers enjoy the food they purchase more safely and for longer periods.

Learn Chinese in One Word
In recent years, people have talked a lot about the word “they” in English. Many believe this is helpful because it includes both males and females. Yet, English is not the only language that has been experimenting with a(n) ____11____ expression. French speakers often use “iel,” a combination of “il” (he) and “elle” (she). In Chinese, there is also an interesting idea. In 2015, some internet users suggested a new written form: X也.
By combining the letter “X” with parts of the Chinese characters used for “he” and “she”, this symbol still reads as “ta” used for both men and women in spoken Chinese. In this ____12____, the new symbol does not change how people speak. Instead, it formalizes something that already exists in the language. After the character was added to Unicode, the international system for digital text, it became easier to type. This helped the wider ____13____ of the symbol online.
However, the situation in English is different. In English, some people still feel ____14____ with “they”. Many speakers insist that “they” should only refer to more than one person instead of singular words like “someone”. Chinese is different. Since the spoken language already uses one sound for both genders, the new symbol is a(n) ____15____ visual change.
This small change in writing also highlights something curious about the Chinese language on a(n) ____16____ scale. The language relies heavily on context to express meaning. It has no word exactly like the English article “the,” and time is often understood from the situation rather than from verb endings. Therefore, Chinese can express ideas with surprising ____17____, using only a few words. For example, a long sentence such as “The relationships among the Seven Warring States were constantly changing” can be presented as “Relationship between Warring States is constant change.”
English, despite its reputation for accuracy, ____18____ leaves much to context. Verbs in English have only three endings: “-s”, “-ing” and “-ed”. Compared with languages like Russian, where verbs have more than 60 endings, English grammar looks quite ____19____. Learning a new language therefore goes beyond learning new vocabulary. It also means understanding how meaning is _____20_____ in different languages.

I Killed Color on My Phone
A few months ago, I began to be worried that I was devoting too many hours to online videos. So, when I read an article about the ____11____ of switching one’s phone to a black-and-white color mode, I figured I’d give it a try.
The result was shocking. The moment I switched, I no longer felt a(n) ____12____ need to look at my phone. The number of hours I spent per day on the phone dropped 40 percent, to four hours and 40 minutes per day — still embarrassingly high, but not the dizzying eight-plus hours I was ____13____.
There are some small ____14____ to my black-and-white online life. Because the answer and decline buttons on my phone are both gray, I’ll sometimes hang up on a call I want to answer. Fortunately, these days, nobody minds if you just call them back. Besides, games weren’t as fun, so I started playing them on my pad and discovered that I liked the separation between work and play that it ____15____: phone for boring stuff; pad for fun. And I’ve found that whenever I return to color, even ____16____, I am desperate to turn it off again as quickly as possible. With my eyes no longer used to the brightness, I now find the phone’s colors to be too vivid, too ____17____.
Two and a half months into this journey, my phone usage remains about four hours per day. And I’m pretty sure I’ll never go back to color on my phone. I feel like turning off color on my phone made me more aware and more ____18____ of the color and beauty in real life. Now that I am no longer turning to my phone for fun, I find myself ____19____ it out in other ways — reading more books, watching more movies, planning more gatherings with friends, hanging out with my kids. And those are things I do want to be ____20____ to.

The Fall of the Roman Empire
The Western Roman Empire is known as one of the longest lasting empires. Historians believe that the empire collapsed in 476 A.D., when its last ruler, Romulus Augustulus, was ____11____.
The question of why the Western Roman Empire ended has fascinated historians for generations, ____12____ a debate that is nowhere near reaching an agreement. In 1984, German historian Alexander Demandt drew up a list of more than two hundred factors that have been cited to explain Rome’s fall — a fall ____13____ blamed on internal corruption (腐败).
Other scholars have pointed to more specific reasons. Some have focused on the evolution of the Roman economy, which struggled to expand by the third century A.D. because of ____14____ on enslaved (受奴役的) people for labor. Ongoing military conflicts and civil wars that broke out from the third century on played a part too, weakening central authority and causing the empire to break apart, leaving it more ____15____ to external threats.
In recent years, however, a (n) ____16____ theory has emerged, highlighting the impact of climatic changes and disease outbreaks. In a work published in 2017, classics professor Kyle Harper argues that the rise and fall of Rome was shaped not only by emperors, generals, soldiers and slaves, but also by viruses, volcanoes and solar cycles. It is a story in which humanity and the environment cannot be ____17____.
Harper and other scholars have drawn on climate and widespread-disease data, which have opened up new ____18____ of research into the study of the past. The data suggest that the ____19____ conditions of the empire in the first century B.C. favored agricultural, economic, and population growth. But they became more variable with a trend toward cooling and drought, which impacted agricultural productivity. This crisis was compounded by another ____20____ natural phenomenon: epidemics (时疫). From the latter half of the second century on, epidemics emerged that affected the whole Roman Empire with unmatched intensity.
