During my years at Stanford University, I was the only deaf undergraduate on campus and American Sign Language (ASL) helped me participate in my classes and my favorite extracurricular activity: riding with the Stanford equestrian (马术) team.
Initially, I felt unsure about how I’d fit into such a hearing-centric world. When I visited the Stanford Red Barn, I had an urge to try out for the team. There, I discovered that the head coach, Vanessa Bartsch, had taken ASL during her own student years. She was completely calm by meeting a deaf rider and seemed excited to practice her ASL again. I left feeling thrilled, realizing there was a place for me here.
Once I made the team, that training field become my second home. I began teaching Bartsch and my teammates some horsey vocabulary in ASL. During practice, I’d fix my gaze between my horse’s ears, then glance sideways at my ASL interpreter as she signed the coach’s instructions. She’d be jogging to stay within my viewing range, interpreting while also trying to stay clear of oncoming hurt from horses. I was amazed at how many forms of communication were happening at once, spoken and signed, human and horse.
Beyond the riding, the routine chores at the barn taught me that our horses were far more than sporting equipment. Being an equestrian athlete is different from other sports, not least because of the bonds that can stir from this shared love for the smell of horses. My Stanford teammates and I did not always understand each other perfectly — but my time on the team showed me that human language isn’t always essential for experiencing a deep connection with another living being.
Today, I am an author. Good writing feels like riding a horse — each sentence moves forward with rhythm and power. Sometimes, crafting my written works reminds me of Red Barn, which shaped my thoughts just as much as any literature class ever did.
4. Why did the author feel it possible to join the Stanford Red Barn?
A. The team favored disabled riders.
B. She had rich equestrian experience.
C. The coach reacted positively to her.
D. She’s involved in many school subjects.
5. What contributed to the author’s successful horse riding practice?
A. Extra training from the coach. B. The improvement of her hearing.
C. Her self-taught horsey vocabulary. D. The assistance from the interpreter.
6. What makes equestrian special to the author?
A. It brings more daily chances.
B. It fits deaf people very well.
C. It builds bonds through love for horses.
D. It depends much on spoken language.
7. What message does the author intend to convey through her experience?
A. Practice makes perfect. B. ASL is key to team success.
C. Connection exists beyond words. D. Sports inspire writing career.
【答案】4. C 5. D 6. C 7. C
【解析】

细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Being an equestrian athlete is different from other sports, not least because of the bonds that can stir from this shared love for the smell of horses.(作为一名马术运动员与从事其他运动不同,尤其是因为对马的气味的共同喜爱能引发情感联系)可知,对作者来说,马术的特别之处在于它通过对马的热爱建立联系。故选C项。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中的“My Stanford teammates and I did not always understand each other perfectly — but my time on the team showed me that human language isn’t always essential for experiencing a deep connection with another living being.(我和斯坦福的队友们并不总是能完全理解彼此——但在队里的时光让我明白,人类语言并非是与另一个生物建立深度联系的必要条件)”可知,作者想通过自身经历传达的信息是联系可以超越语言。故选C项。
C
Almost one in five adults in the US lives with a mental illness. A number of scientific studies have shown that nature experiences may benefit people’s psychological well-being and cognitive (认知的) function. Experts are starting to recognize interacting with nature as one way to improve mental health. But it has been difficult to find ways to quantify these benefits in a useful manner for cities or organizations that want to integrate nature to improve mental health.
“Thinking about the direct mental health benefits that nature contact provides is important to take into account when planning how to conserve nature and integrate it into our cities,” says Greg Bratman, an assistant professor at the University of Washington, offers a conceptual model for this in his study.
The study outlines how city planners, landscape architects, developers, and others could eventually anticipate the mental health impacts of decisions related to the environment. Many governments already consider this with regard to other aspects of human health. For example, trees planted in cities improve air quality or reduce urban heat island effects, and parks built in specific neighborhoods encourage physical activity. But these actions don’t usually directly factor in the mental health benefits that trees or a restored park might provide.
Then researchers built a model to help make meaningful, informed decisions about environmental projects and how they may impact mental health. It includes four steps for planners to consider: elements of nature included in a project, say at a school or across the whole city; amount of contact people will have with nature; how people interact with nature; and how people may benefit from those interactions, based on the latest scientific evidence.
“If the evidence shows that nature contact helps to buffer (缓冲) against negative impacts from other environmental predictors of health, then access to these landscapes can be considered a matter of environmental justice. We hope this framework will contribute to this discussion,” Bratman says. “Eventually, it could be developed and potentially used to help address health disparities in underserved communities.”
8. What challenges planners in using nature to improve mental health?
A. The high cost of green space projects.
B. The difficulty in measuring the benefits.
C. The lack of scientific studies on nature.
D. The low awareness of mental illnesses.
9. What is the purpose of Bratman’s conceptual model?
A. To help decide on environmental issues.
B. To show benefits of nature for mental health.
C. To seek medical treatment for mental illnesses.
D. To replace traditional urban planning methods.
10. What should the government consider in environmental projects according to the model?
A. Increasing the number of urban communities.
B. Simplifying natural elements in the community.
C. Giving people advice on how to interact with nature.
D. Calculating the frequency of people’s nature contact.
11. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A. Mental Health Crisis: More Green Spaces Needed
B. Mental Illness Treatment: A Global Challenge
C. Happiness Measurement: Studies in Urban Parks
D. Nature and Well-being: A New Tool for City Planners
【答案】8. B 9. A 10. D 11. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍研究证实自然有益心理健康,并提出相关模型供城市规划使用。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“But it has been difficult to find ways to quantify these benefits in a useful manner for cities or organizations that want to integrate nature to improve mental health. (但是,对于那些希望融入自然以改善心理健康的城市或机构而言,一直难以找到有效的方法来量化这些益处。)”可知,规划者在使用自然改善心理健康方面面临的挑战是难以量化其益处。故选B。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“The study outlines how city planners, landscape architects, developers, and others could eventually anticipate the mental health impacts of decisions related to the environment. (这项研究概述了城市规划者、景观设计师、开发商及其他人员,最终如何预测环境相关决策对心理健康的影响。)”以及第四段中“Then researchers built a model to help make meaningful, informed decisions about environmental projects and how they may impact mental health. (随后,研究人员建立了一个模型,以帮助针对环境项目及其对心理健康的潜在影响,做出有意义、有依据的决策。)”可知,该模型的目的是帮助就环境问题做出决定。故选A。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“It includes four steps for planners to consider: elements of nature included in a project, say at a school or across the whole city; amount of contact people will have with nature; how people interact with nature; and how people may benefit from those interactions, based on the latest scientific evidence. (该模型包括供规划者考虑的四个步骤:基于最新的科学证据,考虑项目中包含的自然元素(例如在一所学校或整个城市范围内);人们与自然接触的频率;人们如何与自然互动;以及人们可能从这些互动中获得的益处。)”可知,根据这个模型,政府在环境项目中应该考虑人们与自然接触的频率。故选D。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其根据第一段中“A number of scientific studies have shown that nature experiences may benefit people’s psychological well-being and cognitive (认知的) function. Experts are starting to recognize interacting with nature as one way to improve mental health. But it has been difficult to find ways to quantify these benefits in a useful manner for cities or organizations that want to integrate nature to improve mental health. (多项科学研究表明,体验自然有益于人们的心理健康和认知功能。专家们开始认可与自然互动是改善心理健康的一种方式。但是,对于那些希望融入自然以改善心理健康的城市或机构而言,一直难以找到有效的方法来量化这些益处。)”可知,全文围绕“如何量化自然对心理健康的益处”这一难题展开,介绍了研究人员为此构建的一个帮助城市规划者进行环境决策的模型,强调自然与幸福感之间的联系以及为规划者提供的新工具。D选项“自然与健康:城市规划者的新工具”符合文章主旨,是文章的最佳标题。故选D。
D
For people with Alzheimer’s or other forms of dementia (痴呆症), home can become a dangerous place. Simple acts like cooking can lead to fires, and the risk of falls increases significantly. As the number of dementia patients in the U.S. is projected to double by 2060, researchers are asking: What if homes were “smarter” and less deadly? Increasingly, AI is being used to improve safety for patients and reduce the crushing burden on caregivers.
George Demiris, a researcher at the University of Pennsylvania, is leading projects like “Sense4Safety.” Unlike traditional cameras that might invade privacy, this system uses depth sensors to extract human shapes. It analyzes a person’s gait (步态) — measuring step length and speed — to predict fall risks. “Current care systems are unfortunately reactive; we wait for a fall to happen,” Demiris explains. “AI allows us to be proactive, intervening when it detects subtle changes in daily routines or movement patterns before an accident occurs.”
While the technology shows tremendous promise, it also raises complex ethical concerns. Tiffani Bright, an expert in AI fairness, warns about data bias. If an AI model is trained on data that doesn’t reflect the diversity of the patient population, it could provide inaccurate advice for certain groups. Furthermore, there is the issue of access. “Research goes where the dollars go,” Bright notes. Ironically, those who need this technology the most-often in rural or lower-income areas — might be the last to access it, exacerbating the digital divide in healthcare.
Moreover, experts emphasize that technology has limits. Regina Shih, an epidemiologist, argues that one cannot “app their way” out of hands-on care. “There is no way to replace the human interaction and empathy required in family caregiving,” she says. AI can monitor safety and provide peace of mind, but it cannot replace the human touch needed to help someone eat, bathe, or dress.
Ultimately, smart homes represent a powerful tool, not a replacement. The challenge lies not just in developing the technology, but in ensuring it is used responsibly, justly as a complement to human compassion.
12. How does Sense4Safety improve safety according to the text?
A. By offering medical help after accidents.
B. By predicting possible dangers in advance.
C. By controlling patients’ daily movements.
D. By recording real-time behaviors with cameras.
13. What does the underlined word “exacerbating” in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Bridging. B. Worsening. C. Identifying. D. Ignoring.
14. Why is AI unable to replace human care?
A. It lacks necessary human warmth.
B. It fails to ensure the safety of the elderly.
C. It is far too expensive for most families.
D. It causes potential risks to personal information.
15. Which of the following would the author probably agree with?
A. AI benefits patients equally across the areas.
B. AI should be used appropriately in care giving.
C. AI is the final solution to health care problems.
D. AI can independently deal with health care issues.
【答案】12. B 13. B 14. A 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要阐述随着美国痴呆症患者数量预计在2060年翻倍,研究人员探索利用AI打造“更智能”住宅以提升患者安全并减轻护理人员负担,介绍相关技术原理,同时探讨其面临的伦理问题与局限性,强调合理使用AI辅助人类关怀。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“George Demiris, a researcher at the University of Pennsylvania, is leading projects like “Sense4Safety.” Unlike traditional cameras that might invade privacy, this system uses depth sensors to extract human shapes. It analyzes a person’s gait (步态) — measuring step length and speed — to predict fall risks. “Current care systems are unfortunately reactive; we wait for a fall to happen,” Demiris explains. “AI allows us to be proactive, intervening when it detects subtle changes in daily routines or movement patterns before an accident occurs.”(宾夕法尼亚大学研究员乔治・德米里斯,正主导开展 Sense4Safety这类研究项目。与可能会侵犯隐私的传统摄像头不同,该系统利用深度传感器来提取人体轮廓。 它分析人的步态 —— 测量步长与行走速度 —— 以此预判跌倒风险。 德米里斯解释道:“遗憾的是,现有的看护系统都属于事后应对模式;我们总是等到跌倒事故发生后才采取行动。而人工智能让我们能够做到主动预防,在监测到日常行为、运动模式出现细微变化时就及时介入,在意外发生之前规避危险。”)”可知,“Sense4Safety”通过提前预测可能的危险来提高安全性。故选B项。
【13题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第三段中的“Research goes where the dollars go,” Bright notes. Ironically, those who need this technology the most-often in rural or lower-income areas — might be the last to access it, exacerbating the digital divide in healthcare.(“资金流向哪里,研究就走向哪里,” 布赖特指出。具有讽刺意味的是,那些最需要这项技术的人——通常在农村或低收入地区——可能是最后一批获得它的人,这exacerbating了医疗保健领域的数字鸿沟)”可知,农村或低收入地区最需要技术却最后获得,这会使数字鸿沟的情况更严重,所以“exacerbating”意思是“使恶化”。故选B项。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中的““There is no way to replace the human interaction and empathy required in family caregiving,” she says. AI can monitor safety and provide peace of mind, but it cannot replace the human touch needed to help someone eat, bathe, or dress.(她说:家庭照护中所必需的人际交流与共情关怀,是无法被替代的。 人工智能可以监测安全状况、让人安心,却无法替代那些贴身照料:帮助他人进食、洗漱、穿衣等人情化的陪护)”可知,AI无法取代人类护理是因为它缺乏必要的人类温情。故选A项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“The challenge lies not just in developing the technology, but in ensuring it is used responsibly, justly as a complement to human compassion.(挑战不仅在于开发这项技术,还在于确保它被负责任、公正地使用,作为人类同情心的补充)”可知,作者认为AI应在护理中得到恰当使用。故选B项。

第二节(满分25分)
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。
As a member of the school swim team, I know all about competition. Our Coach never lets us forget that winning isn’t everything. “Good sportsmanship makes a true athlete.” I was proud of understanding this lesson. But another contest challenged me.
It started in science class. After a month studying the solar system, some of us were chosen for Planetary Playoff, a game-show-style contest. Our opponent was Lynwood School. The week before the competition, our team met to practice. “My sister said Lynwood’s team will beat us easily. Everyone calls them the ‘genius school’,” Leo spoke up. “I heard they cheat on tests,” I whispered, “and they are all unfriendly.” Leo tried to stop it, “We don’t have proof.” But I argued, “We don’t have proof it’s not true, either.” As the words left my mouth, my stomach twisted. I’d always hated rumors (谣言), yet here I was, spreading them.
Soon, the talk turned mean. The more we badmouthed Lynwood, the more confident we felt. Putting them down felt like building ourselves up. Finally we were convinced we were the better team.
The competition day arrived. As we gathered in the school hall, I noticed some Lynwood team members glancing at us and whispering. A knot (结) tightened in my stomach — had they heard what I said? When the contest ended, we lost badly. I felt my face burn with embarrassment — we’d been so sure we’d win, and we’d been so mean about them. Lynwood school answered questions we had never even heard of. Without doubt, they easily took home the prize — pizza and cakes.
Then something shocking happened. Zack, a Lynwood student, approached with a warm smile. “Great job out there,” he said. His team soon joined, sharing their pizza. “We were so nervous we could barely breathe!” one admitted. Leo laughed. “Same here.” As Zack handed me a slice, my throat tightened. They weren’t unfriendly geniuses — just kids, like us. In that moment, all our rumors felt stupid.
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。
Leo noticed my unease, leaned in and whispered, “That’s true sportsmanship.”
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
“Zack”, I called, and he turned with a surprised look.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Version 1:
Leo noticed my unease, leaned in and whispered, “That’s true sportsmanship.” I nodded, the pizza slice heavy in my hand. Zack didn’t have to be nice. He had won, and we had been so mean about his team. But there he was, treating us like friends. I thought about all the rumors I had spread. The weight of them pressed against my chest. Coach was right. Winning isn’t everything, and good sportsmanship makes a true athlete. Zack was showing me exactly what that meant. I knew I couldn’t just sit there. I had to make it right.
“Zack”, I called, and he turned with a surprised look. As I walked closer, my heart pounded wildly. “I’m sorry.” My voice was shaking. “I started those rumors about your team. It was wrong, and I feel terrible now.” Zack paused for a second, then smiled. “It’s okay,” he said. “We were all just here to learn.” His kindness hit me hard. Zack taught me that you can win and still be nice, and you can lose without being bitter. Sometimes the best lessons come not from winning, but from the people who show you what true sportsmanship looks like.
Version 2:
Leo noticed my unease, leaned in and whispered, “That’s true sportsmanship.” His words struck me like a splash of cold water. There sat Zack, the victor, sharing his prize with the very team that had spread ugly rumors about him. My face burned as I watched them laugh and pass around slices, and my chest tightened with shame. Coach was right. Winning isn’t everything, and good sportsmanship makes a true athlete. It was at that very moment that I was firmly aware I must do something to make it right.
“Zack”, I called, and he turned with a surprised look. I walked toward him, my legs feeling weak. “I owe you an apology.” My voice was trembling as I forced myself to meet his eyes. “I started those rumors and I feel terrible now.” For a moment, he said nothing. Then that warm smile returned. “It’s okay,” he said gently. “We’re all just here to learn.” His simple forgiveness struck me so deeply that I realized the best lessons come not from winning, but from the people who show you what true sportsmanship looks like.
【解析】

During my years at Stanford University, I was the only deaf undergraduate on campus and American Sign Language (ASL) helped me participate in my classes and my favorite extracurricular activity: riding with the Stanford equestrian (马术) team.
Initially, I felt unsure about how I’d fit into such a hearing-centric world. When I visited the Stanford Red Barn, I had an urge to try out for the team. There, I discovered that the head coach, Vanessa Bartsch, had taken ASL during her own student years. She was completely calm by meeting a deaf rider and seemed excited to practice her ASL again. I left feeling thrilled, realizing there was a place for me here.
Once I made the team, that training field become my second home. I began teaching Bartsch and my teammates some horsey vocabulary in ASL. During practice, I’d fix my gaze between my horse’s ears, then glance sideways at my ASL interpreter as she signed the coach’s instructions. She’d be jogging to stay within my viewing range, interpreting while also trying to stay clear of oncoming hurt from horses. I was amazed at how many forms of communication were happening at once, spoken and signed, human and horse.
Beyond the riding, the routine chores at the barn taught me that our horses were far more than sporting equipment. Being an equestrian athlete is different from other sports, not least because of the bonds that can stir from this shared love for the smell of horses. My Stanford teammates and I did not always understand each other perfectly — but my time on the team showed me that human language isn’t always essential for experiencing a deep connection with another living being.
Today, I am an author. Good writing feels like riding a horse — each sentence moves forward with rhythm and power. Sometimes, crafting my written works reminds me of Red Barn, which shaped my thoughts just as much as any literature class ever did.
4. Why did the author feel it possible to join the Stanford Red Barn?
A. The team favored disabled riders.
B. She had rich equestrian experience.
C. The coach reacted positively to her.
D. She’s involved in many school subjects.
5. What contributed to the author’s successful horse riding practice?
A. Extra training from the coach. B. The improvement of her hearing.
C. Her self-taught horsey vocabulary. D. The assistance from the interpreter.
6. What makes equestrian special to the author?
A. It brings more daily chances.
B. It fits deaf people very well.
C. It builds bonds through love for horses.
D. It depends much on spoken language.
7. What message does the author intend to convey through her experience?
A. Practice makes perfect. B. ASL is key to team success.
C. Connection exists beyond words. D. Sports inspire writing career.
C
Almost one in five adults in the US lives with a mental illness. A number of scientific studies have shown that nature experiences may benefit people’s psychological well-being and cognitive (认知的) function. Experts are starting to recognize interacting with nature as one way to improve mental health. But it has been difficult to find ways to quantify these benefits in a useful manner for cities or organizations that want to integrate nature to improve mental health.
“Thinking about the direct mental health benefits that nature contact provides is important to take into account when planning how to conserve nature and integrate it into our cities,” says Greg Bratman, an assistant professor at the University of Washington, offers a conceptual model for this in his study.
The study outlines how city planners, landscape architects, developers, and others could eventually anticipate the mental health impacts of decisions related to the environment. Many governments already consider this with regard to other aspects of human health. For example, trees planted in cities improve air quality or reduce urban heat island effects, and parks built in specific neighborhoods encourage physical activity. But these actions don’t usually directly factor in the mental health benefits that trees or a restored park might provide.
Then researchers built a model to help make meaningful, informed decisions about environmental projects and how they may impact mental health. It includes four steps for planners to consider: elements of nature included in a project, say at a school or across the whole city; amount of contact people will have with nature; how people interact with nature; and how people may benefit from those interactions, based on the latest scientific evidence.
“If the evidence shows that nature contact helps to buffer (缓冲) against negative impacts from other environmental predictors of health, then access to these landscapes can be considered a matter of environmental justice. We hope this framework will contribute to this discussion,” Bratman says. “Eventually, it could be developed and potentially used to help address health disparities in underserved communities.”
8. What challenges planners in using nature to improve mental health?
A. The high cost of green space projects.
B. The difficulty in measuring the benefits.
C. The lack of scientific studies on nature.
D. The low awareness of mental illnesses.
9. What is the purpose of Bratman’s conceptual model?
A. To help decide on environmental issues.
B. To show benefits of nature for mental health.
C. To seek medical treatment for mental illnesses.
D. To replace traditional urban planning methods.
10. What should the government consider in environmental projects according to the model?
A. Increasing the number of urban communities.
B. Simplifying natural elements in the community.
C. Giving people advice on how to interact with nature.
D. Calculating the frequency of people’s nature contact.
11. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A. Mental Health Crisis: More Green Spaces Needed
B. Mental Illness Treatment: A Global Challenge
C. Happiness Measurement: Studies in Urban Parks
D. Nature and Well-being: A New Tool for City Planners
D
For people with Alzheimer’s or other forms of dementia (痴呆症), home can become a dangerous place. Simple acts like cooking can lead to fires, and the risk of falls increases significantly. As the number of dementia patients in the U.S. is projected to double by 2060, researchers are asking: What if homes were “smarter” and less deadly? Increasingly, AI is being used to improve safety for patients and reduce the crushing burden on caregivers.
George Demiris, a researcher at the University of Pennsylvania, is leading projects like “Sense4Safety.” Unlike traditional cameras that might invade privacy, this system uses depth sensors to extract human shapes. It analyzes a person’s gait (步态) — measuring step length and speed — to predict fall risks. “Current care systems are unfortunately reactive; we wait for a fall to happen,” Demiris explains. “AI allows us to be proactive, intervening when it detects subtle changes in daily routines or movement patterns before an accident occurs.”
While the technology shows tremendous promise, it also raises complex ethical concerns. Tiffani Bright, an expert in AI fairness, warns about data bias. If an AI model is trained on data that doesn’t reflect the diversity of the patient population, it could provide inaccurate advice for certain groups. Furthermore, there is the issue of access. “Research goes where the dollars go,” Bright notes. Ironically, those who need this technology the most-often in rural or lower-income areas — might be the last to access it, exacerbating the digital divide in healthcare.
Moreover, experts emphasize that technology has limits. Regina Shih, an epidemiologist, argues that one cannot “app their way” out of hands-on care. “There is no way to replace the human interaction and empathy required in family caregiving,” she says. AI can monitor safety and provide peace of mind, but it cannot replace the human touch needed to help someone eat, bathe, or dress.
Ultimately, smart homes represent a powerful tool, not a replacement. The challenge lies not just in developing the technology, but in ensuring it is used responsibly, justly as a complement to human compassion.
12. How does Sense4Safety improve safety according to the text?
A. By offering medical help after accidents.
B. By predicting possible dangers in advance.
C. By controlling patients’ daily movements.
D. By recording real-time behaviors with cameras.
13. What does the underlined word “exacerbating” in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Bridging. B. Worsening. C. Identifying. D. Ignoring.
14. Why is AI unable to replace human care?
A. It lacks necessary human warmth.
B. It fails to ensure the safety of the elderly.
C. It is far too expensive for most families.
D. It causes potential risks to personal information.
15. Which of the following would the author probably agree with?
A. AI benefits patients equally across the areas.
B. AI should be used appropriately in care giving.
C. AI is the final solution to health care problems.
D. AI can independently deal with health care issues.

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。
As a member of the school swim team, I know all about competition. Our Coach never lets us forget that winning isn’t everything. “Good sportsmanship makes a true athlete.” I was proud of understanding this lesson. But another contest challenged me.
It started in science class. After a month studying the solar system, some of us were chosen for Planetary Playoff, a game-show-style contest. Our opponent was Lynwood School. The week before the competition, our team met to practice. “My sister said Lynwood’s team will beat us easily. Everyone calls them the ‘genius school’,” Leo spoke up. “I heard they cheat on tests,” I whispered, “and they are all unfriendly.” Leo tried to stop it, “We don’t have proof.” But I argued, “We don’t have proof it’s not true, either.” As the words left my mouth, my stomach twisted. I’d always hated rumors (谣言), yet here I was, spreading them.
Soon, the talk turned mean. The more we badmouthed Lynwood, the more confident we felt. Putting them down felt like building ourselves up. Finally we were convinced we were the better team.
The competition day arrived. As we gathered in the school hall, I noticed some Lynwood team members glancing at us and whispering. A knot (结) tightened in my stomach — had they heard what I said? When the contest ended, we lost badly. I felt my face burn with embarrassment — we’d been so sure we’d win, and we’d been so mean about them. Lynwood school answered questions we had never even heard of. Without doubt, they easily took home the prize — pizza and cakes.
Then something shocking happened. Zack, a Lynwood student, approached with a warm smile. “Great job out there,” he said. His team soon joined, sharing their pizza. “We were so nervous we could barely breathe!” one admitted. Leo laughed. “Same here.” As Zack handed me a slice, my throat tightened. They weren’t unfriendly geniuses — just kids, like us. In that moment, all our rumors felt stupid.
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。
Leo noticed my unease, leaned in and whispered, “That’s true sportsmanship.”

“Zack”, I called, and he turned with a surprised look.
