Britain is a land of stunning landscapes and rich heritage — from the Lake District’s peaks and lakes to iconic bridges, from lakeside poets’ romance to Shakespeare’s genius and the Enlightenment’s (启蒙运动) glow. In this series, we spotlight four renowned landmarks to uncover their stories.
The Lake District
The Lake District is England’s largest National Park. Stretching across the North-West, it’s home to the nation’s highest mountains and deepest lakes. This district is very famous for its food. There are seven Michelin-Starred restaurants. Besides, cosy, traditional and hearty pubs are plentiful in the popular towns. The romance and charm of the lakes have inspired many lake poets in their creativity.
The Roman Baths
The Roman Baths are one of the finest examples of preserved ancient thermal spa in the world, and the only official hot spring in Britain. During the Roman Invasion in 50 CE, they dedicated the spring to a healing goddess. Rich or poor, they thought this spring would rid their illness and disease, believing it to be blessed by the Goddesses.
Westminster Palace and Big Ben
The most iconic architectural structures of not only London but the whole of the UK are Westminster Palace and Big Ben. It was originally built as a royal palace about 1000 years ago. During Henry VIII’s reign, he gave it over to parliament. Big Ben has enormous cultural significance for Britain. Its clock rings are broadcast on television every New Year’s Eve to count down and welcome the New Year.
Stonehenge
Stonehenge is the most famous prehistoric monument. It was built 5000 years ago as a ditch and now surrounds the stones. In the 1960s, an astronomer theorized that it might be a calendar since you could see the perfect view of the summer sunrise hitting the stones. People will not fully understand it until bathed in its remarkable mystery.
1. What can visitors do during the tour?
A. Enjoy a drink in the Lake District. B. Listen to the church bells on Christmas day.
C. Get rid of diseases in the Roman Baths. D. Uncover all the mysteries behind Stonehenge.
2. Which landmark is recommended for astronomy fans?
A. The Lake District. B. The Roman Baths.
C. Westminster Palace and Big Ben. D. Stonehenge.
3. What do the four places have in common?
A. Each of them carries a long and rich history. B. Each of them boasts its natural wonders.
C. They are the most celebrated scenery in Britain. D. They are all British architectural heritage.

Stephanie had just finished her second day of classes, filled with excitement. Eager to enjoy the warm afternoon, she decided to take her bicycle out for a ride. As she sped down a familiar path, she hit a deep pothole she hadn’t noticed. Suddenly, she lost control and crashed. In a horrifying moment, she realized that one of the bike’s handle grips (车把) was missing, which left a sharp, exposed metal pipe that pierced her right leg, severed her artery (动脉), and flooded her body with intense pain.
Panic set in as she lay on the ground, her mind racing. A severed artery can cause rapid blood loss, leading to passing out and death within minutes. Stephanie felt herself getting weaker, believing she wouldn’t survive.
But in the midst of her anxiety, help was on the way. Kupris, who had been working on a woodworking project nearby, heard the chaos, dropped his tools, and rushed outside. His heart raced as he dashed along a block, driven by a desperate desire to assist. Following a trail of blood that painted a distinct contrast against the pavement, he felt a surge of fear and concern. When he finally reached the scene, the sight that came into view was terribly horrible. There lay Stephanie on the ground, her face pale and her body twisted in pain, severely injured.
“The whole thing looked impossible, couldn’t be real,” Kupris recalled later, still shaking with fright. He saw a severe wound on her upper leg. Blood was pouring out of the cut. He pressed firmly on the wound, but there was still no response. Panic surged through him as he realized he needed to act quickly — every second counted.
Kupris applied pressure to the wound, using his shirt to slow the bleeding. He shouted for help and stayed by her side, keeping her conscious. Soon, paramedics arrived and took over. Stephanie was rushed to the hospital, where doctors managed to stabilize her. Thanks to Kupris quick thinking and actions, she survived the emergency.
4. What mainly caused Stephanie’s accident?
A. She crashed seriously with a car. B. A pothole caused her to lose control.
C. A sharp object from the bicycle frame. D. The handle grip of the bicycle broke off.
5. What was Stephanie’s immediate reaction after the injury?
A. She applied pressure to her wound. B. She panicked and felt herself fading.
C. She was able to stand up and walk away. D. She tried to call for help but was too weak.

细节理解题。根据第一段中的“As she sped down a familiar path, she hit a deep pothole she hadn’t noticed. Suddenly, she lost control and crashed.(当她沿着熟悉的道路快速骑行时,撞上了一个没有注意到的深坑,随即失去控制并摔倒)”可知,Stephanie的事故主要是由于路面坑洼导致失控。故选B项。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段的“Panic set in as she lay on the ground, her mind racing. A severed artery can cause rapid blood loss, leading to passing out and death within minutes. Stephanie felt herself getting weaker, believing she wouldn’t survive.(当她躺在地上时,恐慌袭来,思绪飞速运转。被切断的动脉会导致快速失血,可能在几分钟内昏迷甚至死亡。Stephanie感到自己越来越虚弱,认为自己无法生还)”可知,Stephanie受伤后的直接反应是感到恐慌并觉得自己正在逐渐失去意识。故选B项。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的“But in the midst of her anxiety, help was on the way. Kupris, who had been working on a woodworking project nearby, heard the chaos, dropped his tools, and rushed outside.(但就在她焦虑万分的时候,救援正在赶来。当时一直在附近做木工活儿的库普里斯听到了动静,放下手中的工具,急忙冲到了外面)”可知,Kupris听到动静马上冲过去帮忙,结合第四段中的“Kupris applied pressure to the wound, using his shirt to slow the bleeding. He shouted for help and stayed by her side, keeping her conscious.(Kupris用他的衬衫对伤口施加压力以减缓出血,同时大声呼救并守在她身边,保持她的清醒)”可知,Kupris迅速施救并对伤口施加压力。故选D项。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据全文内容及最后一段中的“Thanks to Kupris quick thinking and actions, she survived the emergency.(多亏Kupris的快速思考和行动,她才度过了这场紧急情况)”可推知,在紧急情况下保持冷静并迅速采取行动至关重要。故选D项。
C
Some check watches or phone apps to know the time, but few realize our bodies have an internal clock — our circadian (昼夜) rhythm. Disrupted rhythms are linked to illnesses like Type 2 Diabetes and cancer, and drug effects vary significantly by administration time. This connection between treatment time and health outcomes has generated a specialized approach: chronotherapy.
The idea of chronotherapy — giving drugs at right times — owes much to traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), which describes organs’ activity peaks at specific times. French researcher Francis Lévi drew on this wisdom to explore cancer treatment: healthy cells divide fixedly, while cancer cells multiply uncontrollably. Since chemotherapy (化疗) targets rapidly dividing cells, Levi reasoned that giving drugs when healthy cells are “asleep” could boost effectiveness and reduce side effects.
Medical tests proved promising. Those who received chemotherapy at 6 am instead of 6 pm experienced far milder sickness and tiredness. Similar benefits emerged elsewhere: afternoon heart surgery is safer, and flu vaccines given between 9-11 am generate four times more antibodies than later in the day.
Yet chronotherapy faced a problem: everyone’s internal clock varies by up to 12 hours. Measuring it used to be time-consuming — tracking melatonin (褪黑素) release required hours in darkness and frequent samples. Now, new tests using blood or even hair offer quicker results. For example, Germany’s BodlyClock test analyzes clock gene activity in hair follicles (毛囊) to reveal internal time, helping tailor treatments.
These advances in determining our biological time not only support precision medicine but also the use of daily rhythms to enhance overall health. For instance, exposure to morning light helps advance the body clock, while minimizing evening blue light promotes sound sleep. Scheduling demanding mental tasks or intense exercise during personal peak cognitive and physical periods (typically afternoon to early evening) can boost performance.
By making use of our circadian rhythm - through timed treatments and rhythm - aware living - we can unlock longer, healthier lives.
8. What was Francis Lévi’s exploration of cancer treatment based on?
A. The different patterns of cell division.
B. The time when cancer cells divide slowly.
C. The measurement of patients’ sleep habits.
D. The insight of traditional Chinese medicine.
9. What do Paragraphs 3 and 4 suggest about chronotherapy?
A. It is widely used in medical practice.
B. It is limited by measurement problems.
C. It relies on traditional rhythm assessment.
D. Its effectiveness is tied to treatment timing.
10. Which is a good daily application of circadian rhythm?
A. Avoiding regular melatonin supplements. B. Getting treatment when healthy cells sleep.
C. Adapting daily routines to natural rhythms. D. Following regular lifestyle for physical health.
11. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Follow Your Circadian Rhythm B. Build a Healthy Internal Clock
C. Pursue a True Healthy Lifestyle D. Explore Chemotherapy Approaches
【答案】8. D 9. D 10. C 11. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了昼夜节律对人体健康的重要性,以及时间疗法的原理、应用、面临的挑战和日常应用建议。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“The idea of chronotherapy — giving drugs at right times — owes much to traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), which describes organs’ activity peaks at specific times. French researcher Francis Lévi drew on this wisdom to explore cancer treatment(时间疗法的理念——在正确的时间给药——很大程度上归功于中医,中医描述了器官在特定时间的活动高峰。法国研究员弗朗西斯·莱维借鉴了这一智慧来探索癌症治疗)”可知,弗朗西斯·莱维对癌症治疗的探索是基于中医的见解。故选D。
【9题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段中“Medical tests proved promising. Those who received chemotherapy at 6 am instead of 6 pm experienced far milder sickness and tiredness.(医学测试结果很有希望。那些在早上6点而不是晚上6点接受化疗的人,病情和疲劳感要轻得多)”以及第四段中“Yet chronotherapy faced a problem: everyone’s internal clock varies by up to 12 hours. Measuring it used to be time-consuming — tracking melatonin (褪黑素) release required hours in darkness and frequent samples.(然而,时间疗法面临着一个问题:每个人的生物钟差异可达12小时。测量它过去很耗时——追踪褪黑激素的释放需要在黑暗中待上数小时,并频繁取样)”可知,这两段既提到了时间疗法的有效性,也提到了其面临的测量问题,但核心在于强调其有效性是与治疗时间紧密相关的。故选D。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“These advances in determining our biological time not only support precision medicine but also the use of daily rhythms to enhance overall health. For instance, exposure to morning light helps advance the body clock, while minimizing evening blue light promotes sound sleep. Scheduling demanding mental tasks or intense exercise during personal peak cognitive and physical periods (typically afternoon to early evening) can boost performance.(这些在确定我们生物时间方面的进步不仅支持精准医疗,还支持利用日常节律来增强整体健康。例如,早晨接触光线有助于推进生物钟,而晚上尽量减少蓝光则有助于促进深度睡眠。在个人认知和身体状态的高峰期(通常是下午到傍晚早些时候)安排高强度的脑力任务或剧烈运动可以提高表现)”可知,根据昼夜节律调整日常作息是一个好的日常应用。故选C。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章内容可知,文章主要围绕昼夜节律对人体健康的重要性展开,强调了通过利用昼夜节律(通过定时治疗和有节奏的生活)可以解锁更长寿、更健康的生活,因此A项“Follow Your Circadian Rhythm(遵循你的昼夜节律)”最符合文章主旨。故选A。
D
Have you ever wondered why certain songs or paintings feel deeply satisfying? Language expert Jay Keyser’s research finds that repetition makes art speak to us.
Artists like jazz musician Duke Ellington and painter Andy Warhol purposefully use repetition — not simply as copying, but as a clever “same, but different” skill. In Ellington’s Satin Doll, for example, the rhythm repeats while the notes stay high or low, and the song’s words mirror this pattern. Warhol’s soup cans appear alike at first sight, yet each design changes a little. This skill called “same/except” by Jay Keyser in his book Play it again, Sam — makes art feel richer and more pleasant to our brains.
Interestingly, discovering repetition brings much more. Consider a photograph of the US city of Albuquerque that is often discussed for its meaning. Look closer, and you may find that a dog sits in the center with a street sign shadow to its right copying its shape. Recognizing this hidden pattern, as Keyser suggests, repays us with unexpected pleasure and more. Training our eyes to notice such patterns — whether in poetry, paintings or songs — unlocks new meaning.
Why does repetition create such a connection? According to Keyser, science offers an answer: the mere exposure effect (单纯曝光效应). Just as a baby grows fond of a mother’s face through repeated sights, we naturally develop a liking for familiar patterns. Advertisers use this by repeating product names to build trust. Artists harness it too — Warhol’s repeated cans or a song’s repeated catchy parts make us feel comforted and connected.
Keyser shows great art works with the brain’s makeup. When artists repeat certain parts with changes, the art is in line with how our minds seek order, expect patterns, and gain joy from “finding” connections — though we are not aware of it. By studying how artists skillfully apply the “same/except” skill across mediums, and by connecting these choices with science, we gain the key to admiring creativity’s universal magic. This makes everyday experiences with music, paintings, and words much richer.
12. What does the “same/except” skill focus on?
A. Non-traditional artistic styles.
B. Combining different art forms.
C. Repetition with slight variations.
D. Breaking all patterns completely.
13. What does the example of the Albuquerque photo highlight?
A. Fun designs attract more attention.
B. Admiring street art lifts one’s spirits.
C. Repetition enriches art experiences.
D. Famous art deserves lasting discussion.
14. What does the underlined word “harness” in paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. Take advantage of. B. Turn down.
C. Have control of. D. Make out.
15. What does the last paragraph mainly tell us?
A. Art sometimes matches our mindset.
B. Science explains artistic techniques.
C. Artists use repetition unconsciously.
D. Creativity is the key to admiring art.
【答案】12. C 13. C 14. A 15. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,文章通过引用语言专家Jay Keyser的研究,结合艺术家案例和科学原理,解释“重复”在艺术中的作用及背后逻辑。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Artists like jazz musician Duke Ellington and painter Andy Warhol purposefully use repetition — not simply as copying, but as a clever “same, but different” skill. (爵士乐演奏家Duke Ellington和画家Andy Warhol这样的艺术家,会有意地运用重复手法——这并非简单的模仿行为,而是一种巧妙的“相同,但不同”的技巧。)”以及后文的例子“In Ellington’s Satin Doll, for example, the rhythm repeats while the notes stay high or low, and the song’s words mirror this pattern. Warhol’s soup cans appear alike at first sight, yet each design changes a little. This skill called “same/except” by Jay Keyser in his book Play it again, Sam — makes art feel richer and more pleasant to our brains. (例如,在Ellington的《Satin Doll》中,节奏不断重复,而音符则保持在高音或低音位置,歌曲的词也遵循了这种模式。Warhol的罐头图案乍一看都很相似,但每个设计又略有不同。Jay Keyser在其著作《Play it again, Sam》中称这一技巧为“同中存异”(same/except)它让艺术作品显得更加丰富,也更能让我们的大脑感到愉悦)”可知,“同中存异”(same/except)技巧的核心是重复中带有轻微变化。故选C。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“Interestingly, discovering repetition brings much more. Consider a photograph of the US city of Albuquerque that is often discussed for its meaning. Look closer, and you may find that a dog sits in the center with a street sign shadow to its right copying its shape. Recognizing this hidden pattern, as Keyser suggests, repays us with unexpected pleasure and more. Training our eyes to notice such patterns — whether in poetry, paintings or songs — unlocks new meaning.(有趣的是,发现重复现象所带来的益处远不止于此。不妨看看一张关于美国阿尔伯克基市的照片——这张照片的深层含义一直备受讨论。凑近观察,你会发现照片中央坐着一只狗,而它右侧的路牌影子,恰好复刻了狗的轮廓。正如Keyser所指出的,认识到这种隐藏的模式会给我们带来意想不到的愉悦感以及更多的收获。训练我们的目光去留意这类模式——无论是在诗歌、绘画还是歌曲中——都能开启新的意义)”可知,该段以照片为例,是为了论证“发现重复能带来额外价值”,包括意外的愉悦感和新的意义,由此可知,以Albuquerque照片为例,强调了重复丰富了艺术体验。故选C。
【14题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第四段中划线词上文“According to Keyser, science offers an answer: the mere exposure effect (单纯曝光效应). (根据Keyser的观点,科学给出了答案:单纯曝光效应)”、“Advertisers use this by repeating product names to build trust.(广告商通过重复产品名称来建立信任)”以及划线词所在句“Artists harness it too — Warhol’s repeated cans or a song’s repeated catchy parts make us feel comforted and connected. (艺术家们也harness它——Warhol重复的罐子或一首歌重复的朗朗上口的部分让我们感到安慰和联系)”可知,广告商和艺术家都利用了单纯曝光效应,harness与文中“use”同义,表示“利用”,与选项中Take advantage of意思一致。故选A。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段“Keyser shows great art works with the brain’ makeup. When artists repeat certain parts with changes, the art is in line with how our minds seek order, expect patterns, and gain joy from “finding” connections — though we are not aware of it. By studying how artists skillfully apply the “same/except” skill across mediums, and by connecting these choices with science, we gain the key to admiring creativity’s universal magic. This makes everyday experiences with music, paintings, and words much richer.(Keyser指出,伟大的艺术作品与人类的大脑构造相契合。当艺术家在重复某些元素的同时加入变化时,这类艺术便与我们大脑的运作方式不谋而合——我们的大脑会不自觉地寻求秩序、期待规律,并从“发现”事物间的关联中获得愉悦,只是我们自己并未察觉这一点。通过研究艺术家如何巧妙地在不同艺术媒介中运用“同中存异”(same/except)的技巧,并将这些创作选择与科学原理相结合,我们便能掌握欣赏创造力所蕴含的普世魅力的关键。这使得我们在日常生活中接触音乐、绘画与文字时,能获得远比以往更丰富的体验)”可知,最后一段首句点明主旨:伟大艺术作品与大脑的构成相契合,并指出艺术(通过重复与变化的手法)与人类大脑的认知方式(寻求秩序、期待模式、从发现联系中获得快乐)一致。由此可知,最后一段主要告诉我们“艺术有时与我们的思维模式一致”。故选A。

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。续写的词数应为150左右。
I am a senior one student named Leo. I used to be a total couch potato and I’d rather stick to my classroom seat or dorm bed than step outside for even a minute. For meals, I always reached for instant noodles or fried chicken. After school, I would spend all my time on mobile games until midnight, paying no attention to any kind of physical activity.
As time went by, the situation became worse, and slowly, my body began to send out warnings. Every class felt like a big struggle. I felt sleepy in class all the time, and I could hardly focus on the teacher’s words. My teacher noticed my tired eyes more than once, and finally, she held my arm gently and told me to go to the school doctor for a check-up.
After a thorough examination, the doctor said my poor health was caused by too little exercise, irregular sleep, and an unhealthy diet. She frowned (皱眉) slightly as she warned me that if I didn’t change, it would harm my long-term health.
When my classmate Jason heard about this, he kindly invited me to join the school running club. To be honest, I felt ashamed of my poor fitness. So, his invitation fell on deaf ears. I stuck to my old habits, telling myself I was just “not the sporty type.” I thought I would be fine, but my body didn’t lie.
Last week, we had the regular 800-meter test in PE class. As everyone else lined up, my heart sank. I dragged my feet to the starting line, hoping just to finish. But after only 200 meters, it was as if all the warnings came crashing down on me. I was gasping (喘气) for air, and I had to stop, my face pale not just from effort, but from a sudden, clear realisation of how weak I had become.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
It was at that moment that I recalled Jason’s invitation.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Weeks of regular running brought great changes to my life.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】
It was at that moment that I recalled Jason’s invitation. My face burned with shame as I stood there, breathless and weak. I deeply regretted refusing his kindness before. With my head down, I walked slowly towards Jason and asked in a low voice if I could still join the running club. He smiled widely and nodded immediately, patting my shoulder to encourage me. Starting the next day, I got up early to run with him. At first, I felt tired and wanted to give up, but Jason kept cheering me on, and I forced myself to keep going.
Weeks of regular running brought great changes to my life. I no longer felt sleepy in class and could focus much better on my lessons. My body felt stronger, and I no longer feared the 800-meter test. I gave up instant noodles and chose healthy food, and I also stopped staying up late playing games. I became more energetic and confident. Looking at my progress, I realized that small but consistent changes could completely turn my life around, and I was truly grateful for Jason’s help.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为主线展开叙述。Leo原本是个典型的“沙发土豆”,不爱运动,饮食不健康,作息不规律,导致身体状况越来越差,在课堂上总是犯困,难以集中注意力。在老师的建议下,Leo去看了校医,医生指出他健康问题源于缺乏锻炼、饮食不健康和作息不规律。同学Jason邀请Leo加入跑步俱乐部,但Leo起初因羞愧而拒绝。直到在800米测试中,Leo因体力不支而失败,他才意识到自己的虚弱,并回想起Jason的邀请。
【详解】1.段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“就在那一刻,我想起了杰森的邀请。”可知,第一段可描写作者想起杰森的邀请后,决定改变自己,加入跑步俱乐部,并在杰森的鼓励下开始坚持跑步。
②由第二段首句内容“数周的定期跑步给我的生活带来了巨大的变化。”可知,第二段可描写作者坚持跑步后,身体状况得到改善,生活习惯也变得健康,并对杰森的帮助表示感激。
2.续写线索: 想起邀请——感到羞愧——决定加入——开始跑步——身体变化——生活习惯改变——感激杰森
3.词汇激活
行为类
①后悔:regret /feel sorry for
②微笑:smile/grin
③专注于:focus on/concentrate on
情绪类
①羞愧:shame/embarrassment
②感激:grateful/appreciative
【点睛】【高分句型1】My face burned with shame as I stood there, breathless and weak.(运用了as引导的时间状语从句)
【高分句型2】I realized that small but consistent changes could completely turn my life around, and I was truly grateful for Jason’s help.(运用了that引导的宾语从句)

Britain is a land of stunning landscapes and rich heritage — from the Lake District’s peaks and lakes to iconic bridges, from lakeside poets’ romance to Shakespeare’s genius and the Enlightenment’s (启蒙运动) glow. In this series, we spotlight four renowned landmarks to uncover their stories.
The Lake District
The Lake District is England’s largest National Park. Stretching across the North-West, it’s home to the nation’s highest mountains and deepest lakes. This district is very famous for its food. There are seven Michelin-Starred restaurants. Besides, cosy, traditional and hearty pubs are plentiful in the popular towns. The romance and charm of the lakes have inspired many lake poets in their creativity.
The Roman Baths
The Roman Baths are one of the finest examples of preserved ancient thermal spa in the world, and the only official hot spring in Britain. During the Roman Invasion in 50 CE, they dedicated the spring to a healing goddess. Rich or poor, they thought this spring would rid their illness and disease, believing it to be blessed by the Goddesses.
Westminster Palace and Big Ben
The most iconic architectural structures of not only London but the whole of the UK are Westminster Palace and Big Ben. It was originally built as a royal palace about 1000 years ago. During Henry VIII’s reign, he gave it over to parliament. Big Ben has enormous cultural significance for Britain. Its clock rings are broadcast on television every New Year’s Eve to count down and welcome the New Year.
Stonehenge
Stonehenge is the most famous prehistoric monument. It was built 5000 years ago as a ditch and now surrounds the stones. In the 1960s, an astronomer theorized that it might be a calendar since you could see the perfect view of the summer sunrise hitting the stones. People will not fully understand it until bathed in its remarkable mystery.
1. What can visitors do during the tour?
A. Enjoy a drink in the Lake District. B. Listen to the church bells on Christmas day.
C. Get rid of diseases in the Roman Baths. D. Uncover all the mysteries behind Stonehenge.
2. Which landmark is recommended for astronomy fans?
A. The Lake District. B. The Roman Baths.
C. Westminster Palace and Big Ben. D. Stonehenge.
3. What do the four places have in common?
A. Each of them carries a long and rich history. B. Each of them boasts its natural wonders.
C. They are the most celebrated scenery in Britain. D. They are all British architectural heritage.
B
Stephanie had just finished her second day of classes, filled with excitement. Eager to enjoy the warm afternoon, she decided to take her bicycle out for a ride. As she sped down a familiar path, she hit a deep pothole she hadn’t noticed. Suddenly, she lost control and crashed. In a horrifying moment, she realized that one of the bike’s handle grips (车把) was missing, which left a sharp, exposed metal pipe that pierced her right leg, severed her artery (动脉), and flooded her body with intense pain.
Panic set in as she lay on the ground, her mind racing. A severed artery can cause rapid blood loss, leading to passing out and death within minutes. Stephanie felt herself getting weaker, believing she wouldn’t survive.
But in the midst of her anxiety, help was on the way. Kupris, who had been working on a woodworking project nearby, heard the chaos, dropped his tools, and rushed outside. His heart raced as he dashed along a block, driven by a desperate desire to assist. Following a trail of blood that painted a distinct contrast against the pavement, he felt a surge of fear and concern. When he finally reached the scene, the sight that came into view was terribly horrible. There lay Stephanie on the ground, her face pale and her body twisted in pain, severely injured.
“The whole thing looked impossible, couldn’t be real,” Kupris recalled later, still shaking with fright. He saw a severe wound on her upper leg. Blood was pouring out of the cut. He pressed firmly on the wound, but there was still no response. Panic surged through him as he realized he needed to act quickly — every second counted.
Kupris applied pressure to the wound, using his shirt to slow the bleeding. He shouted for help and stayed by her side, keeping her conscious. Soon, paramedics arrived and took over. Stephanie was rushed to the hospital, where doctors managed to stabilize her. Thanks to Kupris quick thinking and actions, she survived the emergency.
4. What mainly caused Stephanie’s accident?
A. She crashed seriously with a car. B. A pothole caused her to lose control.
C. A sharp object from the bicycle frame. D. The handle grip of the bicycle broke off.
5. What was Stephanie’s immediate reaction after the injury?
A. She applied pressure to her wound. B. She panicked and felt herself fading.
C. She was able to stand up and walk away. D. She tried to call for help but was too weak.
6. How did Kupris respond to the situation?
A. He ran to get a first aid kit quickly.
B. He called an ambulance and waited for help.
C. He went for medical assistance immediately.
D. He rushed to help and applied pressure to the wound.
7. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Cycling on familiar paths is always safe.
B. Having a first aid kit is crucial for cycling.
C. Checking for potholes while cycling is always important.
D. Staying calm and acting quickly in emergencies make a difference.
C
Some check watches or phone apps to know the time, but few realize our bodies have an internal clock — our circadian (昼夜) rhythm. Disrupted rhythms are linked to illnesses like Type 2 Diabetes and cancer, and drug effects vary significantly by administration time. This connection between treatment time and health outcomes has generated a specialized approach: chronotherapy.
The idea of chronotherapy — giving drugs at right times — owes much to traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), which describes organs’ activity peaks at specific times. French researcher Francis Lévi drew on this wisdom to explore cancer treatment: healthy cells divide fixedly, while cancer cells multiply uncontrollably. Since chemotherapy (化疗) targets rapidly dividing cells, Levi reasoned that giving drugs when healthy cells are “asleep” could boost effectiveness and reduce side effects.
Medical tests proved promising. Those who received chemotherapy at 6 am instead of 6 pm experienced far milder sickness and tiredness. Similar benefits emerged elsewhere: afternoon heart surgery is safer, and flu vaccines given between 9-11 am generate four times more antibodies than later in the day.
Yet chronotherapy faced a problem: everyone’s internal clock varies by up to 12 hours. Measuring it used to be time-consuming — tracking melatonin (褪黑素) release required hours in darkness and frequent samples. Now, new tests using blood or even hair offer quicker results. For example, Germany’s BodlyClock test analyzes clock gene activity in hair follicles (毛囊) to reveal internal time, helping tailor treatments.
These advances in determining our biological time not only support precision medicine but also the use of daily rhythms to enhance overall health. For instance, exposure to morning light helps advance the body clock, while minimizing evening blue light promotes sound sleep. Scheduling demanding mental tasks or intense exercise during personal peak cognitive and physical periods (typically afternoon to early evening) can boost performance.
By making use of our circadian rhythm - through timed treatments and rhythm - aware living - we can unlock longer, healthier lives.
8. What was Francis Lévi’s exploration of cancer treatment based on?
A. The different patterns of cell division.
B. The time when cancer cells divide slowly.

Have you ever wondered why certain songs or paintings feel deeply satisfying? Language expert Jay Keyser’s research finds that repetition makes art speak to us.
Artists like jazz musician Duke Ellington and painter Andy Warhol purposefully use repetition — not simply as copying, but as a clever “same, but different” skill. In Ellington’s Satin Doll, for example, the rhythm repeats while the notes stay high or low, and the song’s words mirror this pattern. Warhol’s soup cans appear alike at first sight, yet each design changes a little. This skill called “same/except” by Jay Keyser in his book Play it again, Sam — makes art feel richer and more pleasant to our brains.
Interestingly, discovering repetition brings much more. Consider a photograph of the US city of Albuquerque that is often discussed for its meaning. Look closer, and you may find that a dog sits in the center with a street sign shadow to its right copying its shape. Recognizing this hidden pattern, as Keyser suggests, repays us with unexpected pleasure and more. Training our eyes to notice such patterns — whether in poetry, paintings or songs — unlocks new meaning.
Why does repetition create such a connection? According to Keyser, science offers an answer: the mere exposure effect (单纯曝光效应). Just as a baby grows fond of a mother’s face through repeated sights, we naturally develop a liking for familiar patterns. Advertisers use this by repeating product names to build trust. Artists harness it too — Warhol’s repeated cans or a song’s repeated catchy parts make us feel comforted and connected.
Keyser shows great art works with the brain’s makeup. When artists repeat certain parts with changes, the art is in line with how our minds seek order, expect patterns, and gain joy from “finding” connections — though we are not aware of it. By studying how artists skillfully apply the “same/except” skill across mediums, and by connecting these choices with science, we gain the key to admiring creativity’s universal magic. This makes everyday experiences with music, paintings, and words much richer.
12. What does the “same/except” skill focus on?
A. Non-traditional artistic styles.
B. Combining different art forms.
C. Repetition with slight variations.
D. Breaking all patterns completely.
13. What does the example of the Albuquerque photo highlight?
A. Fun designs attract more attention.
B. Admiring street art lifts one’s spirits.
C. Repetition enriches art experiences.
D. Famous art deserves lasting discussion.
14. What does the underlined word “harness” in paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. Take advantage of. B. Turn down.
C. Have control of. D. Make out.
15. What does the last paragraph mainly tell us?
A. Art sometimes matches our mindset.
B. Science explains artistic techniques.
C. Artists use repetition unconsciously.
D. Creativity is the key to admiring art.

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。续写的词数应为150左右。
I am a senior one student named Leo. I used to be a total couch potato and I’d rather stick to my classroom seat or dorm bed than step outside for even a minute. For meals, I always reached for instant noodles or fried chicken. After school, I would spend all my time on mobile games until midnight, paying no attention to any kind of physical activity.
As time went by, the situation became worse, and slowly, my body began to send out warnings. Every class felt like a big struggle. I felt sleepy in class all the time, and I could hardly focus on the teacher’s words. My teacher noticed my tired eyes more than once, and finally, she held my arm gently and told me to go to the school doctor for a check-up.
After a thorough examination, the doctor said my poor health was caused by too little exercise, irregular sleep, and an unhealthy diet. She frowned (皱眉) slightly as she warned me that if I didn’t change, it would harm my long-term health.
When my classmate Jason heard about this, he kindly invited me to join the school running club. To be honest, I felt ashamed of my poor fitness. So, his invitation fell on deaf ears. I stuck to my old habits, telling myself I was just “not the sporty type.” I thought I would be fine, but my body didn’t lie.
Last week, we had the regular 800-meter test in PE class. As everyone else lined up, my heart sank. I dragged my feet to the starting line, hoping just to finish. But after only 200 meters, it was as if all the warnings came crashing down on me. I was gasping (喘气) for air, and I had to stop, my face pale not just from effort, but from a sudden, clear realisation of how weak I had become.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
It was at that moment that I recalled Jason’s invitation.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Weeks of regular running brought great changes to my life.
