Holding my hands, my grandparents boarded a green-skinned train in Hangzhou, which rocked and swayed (摇摆) for twenty-five hours straight to Ulanqab, Inner Mongolia. This is my childhood memory of returning home.
As the train journeyed north, the scenery outside the window gradually transformed from the gentle charm of the south to the vast openness of the north. Everything felt so beautiful, even the noise inside the carriage carried a warmth. Before dawn the next day, I pressed my forehead against the fogged glass, watching the distant sunrise break through the horizon. It seemed as though the morning sun had risen solely to welcome our return.
After starting elementary school, trips back to my hometown grew sparse, and that direct train quietly closed down. The rails rusted into dotted lines in memory, and my hometown became a faint shadow on a photographic negative (底片).
Then, last year, Grandpa passed away, and the frequency of returning home suddenly surged. Yet, the journey no longer held the leisurely comfort of childhood—it became a long, exhausting journey. We rushed to the airport before daybreak, weighed down by luggage check-ins. The crowded cabin and hot air currents added discomfort, while navigating the maze-like airport and enduring hours of road travel left us arriving under completely dark skies. There was no time to admire the scenery, let alone the endless sea of clouds outside the airplane window.
This year, upon hearing that the long-suspended train had resumed operation, an indescribable excitement welled up in my heart. A month ago, I finally boarded this long-missed train again. As night fell, the train slowly set off. The familiar voices in the carriage, mingling with the rhythmic clatter of wheels against tracks, blended into a nostalgic lullaby (怀旧摇篮曲). Lying on the bunk, I felt the gentle sway of the train, as though cradled in the arms of Mother Earth...Years have blurred the details of my memory, and I have sketched it one by one with my imagination.
Finally, the train arrived at my hometown. The moment I met my grandma, the long-accumulated longing in my heart burst out like a tidal stream now...
24. Why does the author describe the train journey in her childhood?
A. To compare the train journey with air travel.
B. To show the inconvenience of traveling by train.
C. To emphasize the long distance to her hometown.
D. To highlight the beauty and warmth of the train journey.
25. What does the underlined word “sparse” in paragraph 3 most probably mean?
A. Rare. B. Frequent. C. Regular. D. Complex.
26. What is the author’s attitude towards modern travel by air?
A. Indifferent. B. Grateful. C. Dissatisfied. D. Enthusiastic.
27. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Memories of My Hometown B. Old tracks Back Home
C. The Change of Transportation D. The Beauty of Air Travel

Human beings have always loved reviews: word of mouth has long been regarded as one of the most valuable marketing tools available to a company. Consumers enjoy reading and giving reviews. However, the problem is that a lot of the reviews are fake. Shabnam Azimi and Alexander Krasnikov of Loyola University of Chicago and Kwong Chan of Northeastern University recently published a study on fake reviews.
The study used a dataset of 1,600 reviews of Chicago hotels. Some of them were real; others were fake. The reviews were presented to 400 subjects. Each subject got eight reviews to read: a balanced set of two positive fake, two positive real, two negative fake and two negative real, presented in a random order. The reviews were written by real people who were given information about the hotel.
The results show that consumers generally trust negative reviews more than positive ones. Moreover, we humans tend to assume that positive reviews might be fake. “Overall, negative reviews are less common. So, we pay more attention to them. When a negative review is fake, we get tricked,” Azimi says.
When it came to faking a review, length was important to believability, as was detail. A long, negative review of a hotel, complete with lots of information, tended to convince participants. A lengthy, positive review, on the other hand, was regarded as suspicious, and participants tended to trust writers that kept their glowing reviews short. Emotion was also important in convincing readers—or the lack of emotion, at least. Azimi says study participants tended not to trust reviews where the writers expressed their feelings in a big way. The more dispassionate that negative write-up, the more likely it was to take the reader in.
The fake reviews written for Azimi’s study were put together by humans, but increasingly, fake reviews are being written by Al, which makes them look more real. Though many companies use algorithms(算法)to weed out fake reviews, Azimi points out that the machines are programmed by humans, and given our limited ability to spot fake reviews, this isn’t a good sign.
28. Which aspect of the study does paragraph 2 mainly talk about?
A. Its design. B. Its findings. C. Its purposes. D. Its significance.
29. What does the underlined word “glowing” in paragraph 4 mean?
A. Funny. B. Abusive. C. Insightful. D. Praising.
30.What kind of review would readers most likely trust?
A. A long, positive one. B. An enthusiastic, positive one.
C. A short, negative one. D. An unemotional, negative one.
31.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. Many companies are producing fake reviews.
B. It will be harder to recognize fake reviews.
C. Machines can detect fake reviews accurately.
D. Writing fake reviews will be declared illegal.
D
When planning my wedding, I was determined not to get caught up in the “perfect day”, but to have a relaxed, informal celebration. My husband and I ended up having a lovely time.
“Pursuit of perfection is a prison,” says Moya Sarner, an NHS psychotherapist. Many of us are driven by the unconscious wish that if we could just have the perfect body, the perfect job and the perfect family, then we would be happy. For that reason, it can be one of the most significant barriers to happiness in life.
The psychoanalyst Donald Winnicott wrote about the importance of the “good enough mother” who meets her baby’s needs timely, but is not perfect. He said perfect is harmful. To meet every desire immediately, to pass the toy straight away whenever it is demanded slows down a baby’s growth, robbing them of the opportunity to feel frustrated and learn to crawl to get the toy for themselves.
Winnicott believed that while perfection is not a virtue, tolerance of imperfection is. If we cannot develop the capacity to tolerate imperfection in ourselves and in those around us, we can have no self-confidence, no sustainable relationships and no fulfilling career. If we’re always trying to build something called a perfect life, we aren’t really living the one we’re in.
How do I know all this? I am a perfectionist in recovery. I’ve started to recognize my intolerance of imperfection—my need for certain things to be exactly as I would like them to be, from the way my husband chops his onions to my terror of being late—and it has made a huge difference to my relationship and my parenting. How can you be a good partner if you expect everyone else to fit your own narrow expectations? How can your child grow if they sense that they always need to color precisely inside the lines you’ve drawn out for them?
We need to go further than tolerating imperfections. We need to learn to appreciate their humanity and beauty. Imperfections are why people will pay a calligrapher to handwrite invitations when a computer can produce a flawless (完美的) version of the same script for less money and in less time. So for a more delicious life, and ultimately a better one, I choose imperfectionism.
32. Which of the following does the author agree with?
A. Pursuit of perfection restricts people’s development.
B. Pursuit of perfection blocks people’s access to happiness.
C. We should keep building a perfect life to gain true happiness.
D. Tolerating imperfections cannot bring us any improvement in life.
33. What can we learn from the example of the “good enough mother”?
A. Raising a child brings a mother much joy.
B. Pursuing perfection is the duty of mothers.
C. Meeting babies’ demands is very challenging.
D. Responding instantly impacts babies’ growth.
34. What is the function of the two questions at the end of Paragraph 5?
A. To shift topics. B. To make assumptions.
C. To encourage thinking. D. To arouse interest.
35. Which of the following might the author approve of?
A. A miss is as good as a mile. B. Haste makes waste.
C. Close enough is good enough. D. Practice makes perfect.

阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Learning frustration refers to the emotional response students have when they are faced with tough academic tasks, often leading to stress, avoidance, or negative self-talk. 36 . Let’s explore how to help students push past learning barriers and come out stronger.
Normalize the struggle
The first step in overcoming frustration is acknowledging that struggle is normal—and valuable. 37 . In fact, encountering obstacles is often when the deepest learning happens.
Break down the challenge
Overwhelming assignments can feel like unconquerable mountains. 38 . For example, instead of tackling an entire essay at once, start with brainstorming ideas or outlining a single paragraph.
39
When students hit a barrier, they may often get stuck on the idea of having to get it “right.” But learning is about experimenting, making mistakes, and adjusting. Encourage students to try different approaches and celebrate effort, even when the answer isn’t perfect.
Build confidence through small wins
Confidence is the key to pushing past obstacles. By setting achievable goals, students can experience frequent “wins” that remind them of their capabilities. 40 .
Frustration doesn’t have to disrupt a student’s academic progress. When channeled correctly, it becomes an opportunity for growth, resilience, and deeper understanding, which help students not only succeed in school but also build skills that prepare them for life.
A. Enhance capabilities by trial and error
B. Over time, it builds a sense of confidence
C. Encourage problem-solving, not perfection
D. Learning isn’t supposed to be effortless or smooth
E. Help students learn to cope with one piece at a time
F. These small victories add up, shifting their mindset from “I can’t” to “I can”
G. However, with proper strategies, it can be transformed into a powerful motivator

On warm September night, on the Outer Banks of North Carolina, soft sea winds filled the air. The moon was full. Mira could feel the energy in the air. She loved everything about the ocean, and this evening she had come down to the beach to enjoy the salty night air and hear the waves washing over the sand gently.
Mira closed her eyes and listened to the waves. The gentle rolling sound was calming. Suddenly, Mira could hear another sound, too. She listened carefully. The sound was so soft that she could barely hear it. She opened her eyes and looked down at the sand. It was moving! All of a sudden, she could see a tiny head coming out. Then, she saw four tiny feet and a shell. A turtle had emerged!
Mira looked in amazement at the baby turtle. In the moonlight she could just make out the green and brown pattern on its shell. It was so small! She watched with wonder as other baby turtles began to emerge. One by one they struggled out of their underground nests. Soon the beach was like a moving carpet of tiny turtles.
Mira knew the turtles should head towards the waves and swim away, so she was puzzled when they began to pull themselves in the opposite direction. Why would the turtles be going away from the ocean?
Suddenly, she remembered something she had heard from some people living here. “Loggerhead sea turtles come back here every year in April. They bury their eggs on the beach and in the first week of September those baby turtles hatch and head back down to the sea. But some of them never make it. Sometimes they die going across the beach, trying to find those bright lights in the houses. The lights confuse the sea turtles.”

读后续写:
Para 1: Mira looked across the beach at her house. What came into her sight was her mother, sitting on the porch rocking her baby sister. Accompanying her was his father drinking lemonade. Mira could see them clearly because her house had two bright lights that lit up the front yard of the house. Suddenly it clicked. Mira shouted to them at the top of her voice, “Turn off the lights please!” But they failed to hear, so she began to run. She raced to her house with only one thought “Turn off the lights”. She tripped and fell, but without delay she picked herself up and continued running until she reached the house.
Para 2: Upon arrival, she shouted, “The turtles are hatching! We have to help them!” With that, Mira dashed into the house and turned off the bright porch lights. Her parents were a little bit confused. However, after Mira explained what had happened, they jumped into action as well. They hurriedly rushed to their neighbors and asked them to turn off their lights. Meanwhile, Mira was off running towards the sea again. She reached the beach just in time to see the tiny turtles slipping silently into the waves. As the last turtle swam away, it seemed to have looked back at Mira. In the moonlight, Mira thought she saw it smile. Now Mira could picture all the small turtles swimming happily in the ocean.

M: The weather is a little unusual for this time of the year. Don’t you think, Janet?
W: That’s true, Timothy. But it’s supposed to get warmer later in the week. At least the wind has stopped.
2. 【原文】
M: So what do you fancy tonight, Amber? I’m pretty starving.
W: Well, Max, we haven’t tried that new Korean place across from the City Library. So why don’t we check it out?
M: Sounds perfect.
3. 【原文】
W: Excuse me, could you help me with the self-checkout?
M: Of course, I’d be happy to help. Press the start button and scan your purchases. Then press the pay button. We accept cards and mobile payments.
4. 【原文】
M: Hello, Miss Carter. Thanks for meeting me here at the apartment.
W: Oh, I’m excited to take a closer look.
M: This is one of our most popular listings. It is well-maintained by the current owners, so you shouldn’t have to worry about major repairs anytime soon.
5. 【原文】
W: Have you seen the latest update on the school website? The new plan looks great.
M: Yes, I like the idea of building a vegetable garden on the roof. It’s a very sustainable project.
6~7.【原文】
W: How are you feeling about the volleyball next week? Your team’s done brilliantly to get into the final!
M: Yeah. Everyone’s pretty convinced we’ll be bringing home the winners’ cup, so there’ll be loads more fans at the game than we’re used to.
W: So will there be any challenges?
M: Well, the team we’re playing against is a bit of an unknown quantity. We don’t really know what they’re capable of. I mean, if they happen to be on top form, as they were earlier in the tournament, we may struggle.
8~10.【原文】
W: That new sleep tracker you recommended is fascinating... and slightly terrifying.
M: How so? The data’s been eye-opening for me.
W: According to this, for 88% of the time, I don’t get into deep sleep.
M: What’s your sleep efficiency?
W: 85% last night, but it ranges from 70% to 90%. Honestly, knowing this might be making my sleep problem worse.
M: Well, we monitor sleep to improve it, but the monitoring causes stress.
W: Exactly! Maybe ignorance makes it easier.
M: Try using it just weekly for sleep patterns, like your average sleep time.
11~13.【原文】
W: Dr. Evans, I’m not sure if I should insist on my kids doing chores. Does it really matter?
M: Absolutely. A study published in Child Development found that children who regularly take on household responsibilities are more likely to be ambitious and independent adults.
W: That makes sense, but how do I get them to do chores without constant arguing?
M: The key is to match tasks to the child’s age. For younger kids, start with small jobs — like having a 2-or 3-year-old put away toys. Around 10 or 11, they can handle changing bed sheets.
W: And how do I keep them motivated?
M: Start by making chores fun, turning them into a game. Also, praise their effort — a star chart can work well. But most importantly, and this is often overlooked, be the example you want your children to follow.
14~17.【原文】
W: At the age of 17, Eli Zied, the senior high school student from New York City, is also the CEO of the up-and-coming fashion brand Habits 365. Eli, how do you balance your academic life with your business goals?
M: As a student, getting good grades is still my main priority.
W: What were some of the first things you did to start your business in the very beginning?
M: I started out creating designs and making logos, and then my older brother Spencer came to help me with the business. We got the ball rolling by selling to our classmates, relatives, and the like.
W: What was the biggest challenge along the way?
M: I’d say the biggest issue was the risk of buying large quantities of materials to be more cost-efficient. We had to be confident that people would like and buy our products, so we ran online surveys among our early followers to get a better sense of what they wanted.
W: You’ve gained lots of publicity through celebrities and influencers, ranging from NBA athletes to singers. How did you go about creating such a wide base?
M: I basically contacted many athletes, musicians, and others with strong online influence. Having influencers wear our products has been one of the biggest drivers of growth. Now, we have over 80,000 followers!
18~20.【原文】
W: Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for joining our online session. Today, we will be discussing time management strategies. Our speaker, Dr. Susan Martin, is a renowned expert in time management. She has written several bestselling books on the topic, including The Focused Mind, which shows readers how to master their attention, and Time for What Matters, a practical guide to priority-based living. Both works have been translated into multiple languages and are reaching a global readership.
The presentation will last for about 45 minutes, followed by a 15-minute Q&A session. During the talk, Dr. Martin will cover key strategies, including setting clear goals, prioritizing tasks, and using time blocking techniques. These methods are designed to increase efficiency and create space for meaningful activities, and, above all, to reduce stress — a benefit that many find both fresh and valuable.
To make the most of this session, please type your questions into the chat box throughout the presentation. I will select some of the most representative questions, and Dr. Martin will address them after her talk. Thank you again for being here — let’s begin.
