At the end of each conversation, a question will be asked about what was said. The conversations and the questions will be spoken only once. After you hear a conversation and the question about it, read the four possible answers on your paper, and decide which one is the best answer to the question you have heard. 1. W: What time should I be at the restaurant tonight? M: The reservation is for 6:45, but we need a little time to order drinks. Try to get there by 6:30 at the latest. Q: When does the man suggest the woman arrive at the restaurant? 2. M: I keep ignoring my bills. Maybe if I don't think about them, they'll just go away. W: Come on, there is no escape. You have to deal with them. Q: What does the woman suggest the man do? 3. W: You still haven't explained why you were late yesterday. I think you owe me an answer. M: I'm really tired of talking about it. Can we just drop it? Q: What does the man mean? 4. M: I have a stomachache. I don't think I can eat anything heavy tonight. W: Then let me make you some rice soup. It should be easy to digest. Q: What is the woman trying to do for the man? 5. W: The teacher said my essay was "interesting", but she didn't smile at all. M: Reading between the lines, I think she wasn't fully satisfied with it. Q: What are the speakers mainly talking about? 6. M: I was shamed of laughing at Mike's rude jokes just to fit in with the group. W: I know how that feels. It's hard not to go along when everyone else is doing it. Q: How did the man feel about laughing at the jokes? 7. M: How's the group project going? W: Honestly, everyone is moving so fast. I can't catch up with the progress. Q: What does the woman mean? 8. W: I took care of my little cousin yesterday, and she kept running around, refusing to eat, and hiding her toys. M: Sounds exhausting—she is really hard to control. Q: What can be learned about the woman's cousin from the conversation? 9. W: The two articles tell very different stories about what happened at the concert. M: That's true. It could be her version of this event, or his. Q: What does the man mean? 10. M: I keep thinking about the test yesterday. If only I had studied harder, I wouldn't have missed so many questions. W: But at least you can learn from this for next time. Q: What can be learned about the man? Section B Directions: In Section B, you will hear two short passages and one longer conversation, and you will be asked several questions on each of the passages and the conversation. The passages and the conversation will be read twice, but the questions will be spoken only once. When you hear a question, read the four possible answers on your paper and decide which one would be the best answer to the question you have heard. Questions 11 through 13 are based on the following passage. Many people enjoy using social media to share their daily lives, but it can also bring unexpected problems, One common issue is social media envy. When we look through posts of friends traveling, eating at fancy restaurants, or celebrating success, we may feel that our own lives are less exciting. This can create negative emotions such as sadness, envy, or even anger. Psychologists explain that there are two kinds of envy. The first is called positive envy. This type can actually motivate us. For example, if we see someone exercising regularly, we may feel encouraged to improve our own health. The second type is negative envy. This happens when we start wishing that others would fail, or when we feel unhappy about their achievements. Clearly, this kind of envy is harmful. So, what can we do? First, it is important to acknowledge our feelings. Simply admitting, "I feel envious," can help us manage the emotion. Second, we should be careful about what we follow online. Unfollowing accounts that cause negative feelings is sometimes necessary. Finally, balance is key. Spending less time online and focusing more on real-life connections can reduce envy and increase happiness. Now listen again. Questions 11. What is the passage mainly about? 12. Which of the following is an example of positive envy? 13. According to the passage, which of the following can help reduce negative envy? Questions 14 through 16 are based on the following passage. Drawing is often seen as a creative skill, but researchers argue it is also a powerful tool for learning. For thousands of years, humans have used drawing not only to create art but also to observe, remember, and understand the world. Far from being limited to professional artists, drawing can improve how we sense and process information. Studies show that casual drawing during a lecture helps people stay focused and improves memory. In one experiment, participants asked to make quick drawings while listening to a list of names remembered nearly a third more than those who did not. This effect is linked to the brain's natural activity pattern, which keeps the mind alert and benefits from simple drawing tasks. By engaging the brain, drawing keeps attention active.Drawing also improves visual accuracy. Artists are better at judging shape, size, and proportion than non-artists. For scientists, this has practical applications: before photography, biologists were trained to draw species carefully to record details. Rather than seeing drawing as a gift for the talented, we should recognize it as a universal method of thinking and learning. Whether through quick drawings or detailed paintings, drawing strengthens both memory and insights, making it a vital human skill. Now listen again. Questions 14. What is the main idea of the passage? 15. According to the passage, why does casual drawing during lectures help students? 16. What did biologists do before photography was invented? Questions 17 through 20 are based on the following conversation. W: Hey, have you heard about the study saying hot baths can provide many of the same health benefits as exercise? M: Really? You mean just sitting in hot water could replace jogging or cycling? W: Not completely, but researchers found that regular hot bathing increases blood flow,raises body temperature, and even helps regulate the heart rate-very similar to what exercise does, M: That sounds amazing! So does it actually improve health in the long term? W: Yes. The study showed it could be good for the heart, ease body aches, and even improve people's mood. Some people who have long-lasting health problems but can't exercise much might especially benefit. M: I see. But I guess exercise is still better overall, right? W: Exactly. One researcher explained that "exercise is medicine," but hot baths are good alternative options for those unwilling or unable to exercise enough. M: That's encouraging. I wouldn't mind combining exercise with hot baths-seems like the best of both worlds! W: Totally. It's like giving your body a double boost-sweat from exercise and then relax in the heat. Now listen again. Questions 17. What is the conversation mainly about? 18. According to the conversation, what can regular hot bathing do? 19. Who might especially benefit from hot baths, according to the study? 20. What do the speakers agree on at the end? II.

Reading Comprehension (45’) Section A（15’） Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context. When I was a young man, I worked for several years in a sawmill (锯木厂) to support my family. It was hard, 41 labour in a building that wasn’t properly heated or cooled. We 42 through the hot summer and suffered bitterly in winter. During the cold months, even with gloves, the skin on my fingers would crack and split; I once 43 an entire pack of band-aids within just a few weeks. At lunchtime, we 44 to the parking lot — seeking fresh air in the heat or the 45 warmth of our cars in winter. One snowy afternoon, my friend and I sat in my old car, eating sandwiches and drinking cans of Coke. The heater 46 to keep us warm, but the radio played a song we loved. Gazing at the falling snow, my friend said something that 47 in my mind: “My dad used to say life was one thing after another, so you’d better enjoy the 48 in between.” We laughed, clinked our cans, and sat in comfortable silence until the whistle called us back. For years, I tried to follow that advice. I did my best to love others and 49 those problem-free times we all get every so often. Yet after almost sixty years here, I am finally also starting to 50 the one thing after another. I am learning to draw strength from life’s challenges, to grow more 51 through hardships, and to love more deeply because of them. The “one thing after another” is not an 52 of life; it is life itself. And each “thing” is an invitation — to become wiser instead of bitter, kinder instead of 53 , and braver instead of afraid. When we stop waiting for easier days and begin 54 each moment, we discover that we already possess enough to appreciate every 55 life offers. 41．A．back-breaking B．breath-taking C．heart-breaking D．hair-raising 42．A．swelled B．sweated C．trembled D．choked 43．A．wasted B．saved C．packed D．used 44．A．wandered B．marched C．escaped D．slid 45．A．strong B．steady C．pure D．faint 46．A．struggled B．attempted C．worked D．paused 47．A．stuck B．faded C．struck D．occurred 48．A．gaps B．events C．breaks D．stops 49．A．rely on B．delight in C．live on D．join in 50．A．avoid B．fear C．adopt D．enjoy 51．A．modest B．cautious C．resilient D．patient 52．A．intention B．interruption C．explanation D．expectation 53．A．ashamed B．disappointed C．hardened D．vain 54．A．observing B．embracing C．imagining D．reviewing 55．A．change B．case C．opportunity D．chapter 【答案】 41．A 42．B 43．D 44．C 45．D 46．A 47．A 48．C 49．B 50．D 51．C 52．B 53．C 54．B 55．D 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者年轻时艰苦工作的经历，从中领悟并学会珍惜、接纳与拥抱生活每一刻的人生感悟。 41．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：那是在一栋没有合适供暖和制冷的建筑里进行的辛苦、累断腰的体力劳动。A. back-breaking累断腰的、极其辛苦的；B. breath-taking令人惊叹的、壮观的；C. heart-breaking令人心碎的；D. hair-raising令人毛骨悚然的。根据空前的“hard”以及下文所描述的恶劣的环境可知，这份工作是繁重、辛苦的。故选A。 42．考查动词词义辨析。句意：炎炎夏日里我们挥汗如雨，寒冬时节又受尽煎熬。A. swelled膨胀；B. sweated流汗；C. trembled颤抖；D. choked窒息。根据空后的“through the hot summer”可推测，夏日对应流汗，与下文冬天的寒冷形成对比。故选B。 43．考查动词词义辨析。句意：寒冷的月份里，即便戴着手套，我的手指皮肤也会冻裂；我曾在短短几周内就用完了一整包创可贴。A. wasted浪费；B. saved拯救；C. packed打包；D. used使用。上文“During the cold months, even with gloves, the skin on my fingers would crack and split”指出手指冻裂。由此可知，创可贴需求量大。因此，作者应该是短短几周内就用完了一整包创可贴。故选D。 44．考查动词词义辨析。句意：午饭时，我们逃到停车场——在炎热中寻找新鲜空气，或是在冬天寻找车里微弱的暖意。A. wandered漫步；B. marched行进；C. escaped逃离；D. slid滑动。根据上文“It was hard, ____ labour in a building that wasn’t properly heated or cooled.”可知，工人们从条件恶劣的厂房去到停车场，是暂时逃离工作环境。故选C。 45．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：午饭时，我们逃到停车场——在炎热中寻找新鲜空气，或是在冬天寻找车里微弱的暖意。A. strong强烈的；B. steady稳定的；C. pure纯净的；D. faint微弱的。根据下文“One snowy afternoon, my friend and I sat in my old car, eating sandwiches and drinking cans of Coke.”可知，车是旧车，暖气效果差，只能提供微弱的温暖。故选D。 46．考查动词词义辨析。句意：暖气勉强维持着温度，但收音机里放着我们喜欢的歌。A. struggled努力，勉强支撑；B. attempted尝试；C. worked工作；D. paused暂停。根据下文“but the radio played a song we loved”中的“but”可知，上下文之间存在转折关系。由此可推测，暖气效果不好、勉强工作，符合旧车的设定。故选A。 47．考查动词词义辨析。句意：望着飘落的雪花，朋友说了一句让我铭记至今的话：“我爸爸常说，生活就是一件事接着一件事，所以你最好享受其间的休息时光。”A. stuck卡住、铭记；B. faded褪色、逐渐消失；C. struck撞击；D. occurred发生。根据下文“For years, I tried to follow that advice.”可知，作者多年都遵循这句话，说明这句话留在脑海、被记住。stick in one’s mind意为“铭记在心”。故选A。 48．考查名词词义辨析。句意：望着飘落的雪花，朋友说了一句让我铭记至今的话：“我爸爸常说，生活就是一件事接着一件事，所以你最好享受其间的休息时光。”A. gaps缝隙、缺口；B. events事件；C. breaks休息、间歇；D. stops停止。根据上文“My dad used to say life was one thing after another”可知，生活是由连续的事情组成，因此要享受事情之间的休息时光。故选C。 49．考查动词短语辨析。句意：我尽力去爱别人，享受那些我们偶尔能拥有的、没有烦恼的时光。A. rely on依靠；B. delight in喜爱、享受；C. live on以……为生；D. join in参加。根据上文“My dad used to say life was one thing after another, so you’d better enjoy the ____ in between.”，父亲建议我们要享受生活。由此可知，空处意为“享受”。故选B。 50．考查动词词义辨析。句意：但近六十年后，我终于也开始享受这一件接一件的事。A. avoid避免；B. fear害怕；C. adopt采纳；D. enjoy享受。根据上文“you’d better enjoy the in between”及下文“I am learning to draw strength from life’s challenges, to grow more through hardships, and to love more deeply because of them.”可知，作者开始从挑战中获得力量，开始享受生活的起伏。故选D。 51．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：我学着从生活的挑战中汲取力量，在困境中变得更加坚韧，并因这些经历而爱得更深。A. modest谦虚的；B. cautious谨慎的；C. resilient有韧性的；D. patient耐心的。根据上文“I am learning to draw strength from life’s challenges”可推测，作者从困难中汲取力量，人也会变得更有韧性，更能抗挫折。故选C。 52．考查名词词义辨析。句意：这“一件接一件的事”并非生活的干扰，它就是生活本身。A. intention意图；B. interruption打断、干扰；C. explanation解释；D. expectation期待。根据下文“it is life itself”以及常识可知，麻烦事通常会被视作生活的干扰。故选B。 53．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：而每一件“事”都是一份邀请——让你变得更睿智而非怨怼，更善良而非冷漠麻木，更勇敢而非恐惧。A. ashamed羞愧的；B. disappointed失望的；C. hardened冷酷的、麻木的；D. vain虚荣的。根据上文“And each “thing” is an invitation- to become wiser instead of bitter, kinder”可推测，空处与“kinder”意思相反，指内心变硬、冷漠。故选C。 54．考查动词词义辨析。句意：当我们不再等待更轻松的日子，开始拥抱每一个瞬间，我们就会发现，自己早已拥有足够的心力，去珍惜生活赋予的每一个篇章。A. observing观察；B. embracing拥抱；C. imagining想象；D. reviewing回顾。根据上文“When we stop waiting for easier days”中的“stop waiting for”可推测，不再等轻松日子，自然是主动拥抱、接纳每一刻。故选B。 55．考查名词词义辨析。句意：当我们不再等待更轻松的日子，开始拥抱每一个瞬间，我们就会发现，自己早已拥有足够的心力，去珍惜生活赋予的每一个篇章。A. change改变；B. case情况；C. opportunity机会；D. chapter篇章。根据上文“appreciate every”及全文内容可知，此处将生活比作一本书，每一段经历都是一个篇章。故选D。 Section B（22’） Directions: Read the following three passages.

Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. (A) Power of Public Speaking has partnered with ASI Innovation Labs to integrate artificial intelligence into the Pops Classroom platform for improving public speaking skills. The first project is the Pops Advisor which provides an automatic evaluation of students’ video presentations with visual feedback. The Advisor offers on-demand comments to students practicing public speaking from anywhere. This flexibility benefits instructors, who can be as hands-on or hands-off during practice. While students can operate autonomously with the tool, instructors can also choose to keep track of students’ progress. Criteria Using machine learning models, the Pops Advisor analyzes the following criteria: Delivery Introduction Body Conclusion Vocal Style Vocal Quality Vocal Filler Eye Contact Body Language Credibility Attention Central Idea Preview Connective Support Language Connective Credibility Organization Signaling Ending Summary Memorable Ending Credibility Feedback The presenter receives feedback on the above four categories. And this feedback is given in the following formats: Recommendations To provide presenters with valuable feedback for the next practice, recommendations focus on specific aspects needing improvement. For instance, the recommendation can be “Your message is clear, but be sure you are grabbing your audience’s attention in your introduction to ensure they are listening.” Speech Metrics (指标) Useful speech metrics serve as quantitative descriptors on several aspects of the presentation including number of words, total presentation time, speaking rate and vocal fillers percentage. Pops Advisor can be used in any classroom setting where students are presenting, particularly in the Basic Public Speaking Course. When you are considering what can be achieved by your students toward skill development in a single school semester, Advisor increases the overall development. 56．What is the Pops Advisor?

The study found that a drama-based approach to teaching Shakespeare broadened children’s vocabulary, improved the quality of their writing, and enhanced their emotional understanding. “The way actors work makes a big difference to how children use language and how they think about themselves,” said Jacqui O’Hanlon, lead researcher of the study. The random trial involved hundreds of Year 5 pupils (aged nine and ten) at 45 state primary schools. The children were divided into a target group and a control group. Both groups read a passage from Romeo and Juliet and were asked to write a letter as Romeo after being separated from Juliet. Before writing, the target group took part in a 30-minute drama-based activity, while the control group did not. It was shown that pupils in the target group drew on a wider vocabulary, used more complicated or rarer words, and wrote at greater length. They also appeared more comfortable writing in role. While pupils in the control group imagined how they themselves would react to being separated from a loved one, children in the target group put themselves in Romeo’s shoes and expressed that character’s emotion. O’Hanlon said she had been most surprised by the emotional understanding evident in the children’s writing, and that they showed deeper empathy and expressed emotions more vividly. “It is probably related to the drama-based process, where you are used to trying to think and feel as the character,” she added. But could the results be reproduced with any old dramatists? O’Hanlon said more research would be needed but suggested that Shakespeare’s use of 20,000 words, compared with the everyday 2,000 words, gave a massive expansion of language into children’s lives, which was combined with children using their whole bodies to bring words to life. 59．What does the study encourage children to do? A．Perform Shakespeare’s works. B．Write their own original plays. C．Learn Shakespeare’s lines by heart. D．Watch professional acting on stage. 60．Which aspect of the study does paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A．Its procedure. B．Its background. C．Its purpose. D．Its significance. 61．What impressed O’Hanlon most about the target group’s writing? A．Passage fluency. B．Emotional depth. C．Word complexity. D．Plot imagination. 62．What can be learned from the text? A．Practice makes perfect. B．Learning by doing works best. C．Reading makes a full man. D．Words are the voice of the mind. 【答案】59．A 60．A 61．B 62．B 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了一项研究表明，通过戏剧方式教授莎士比亚作品能提升孩子的读写能力和情感理解力。 59．细节理解题。根据第一段中“The grammar school boy from Stratford-Upon-Avon has made headlines again after a groundbreaking study showed that Shakespeare does benefit children’s literacy and emotional development, but only if they can act him out.(这位来自埃文河畔斯特拉特福德的文法学校男生再次成为头条新闻，此前一项突破性的研究表明，莎士比亚确实有益于儿童的读写能力和情感发展，但前提是他们能把他演出来)”以及第二段中“The study found that a drama-based approach to teaching Shakespeare broadened children’s vocabulary, improved the quality of their writing, and enhanced their emotional understanding.(研究发现，以戏剧为基础的莎士比亚教学方法拓宽了孩子们的词汇量，提高了他们的写作质量，增强了他们的情感理解力)”可知，这项研究鼓励孩子们表演莎士比亚的作品。故选A。 60．主旨大意题。根据第三段中“The random trial involved hundreds of Year 5 pupils (aged nine and ten) at 45 state primary schools. The children were divided into a target group and a control group. Both groups read a passage from Romeo and Juliet and were asked to write a letter as Romeo after being separated from Juliet. Before writing, the target group took part in a 30-minute drama-based activity, while the control group did not.(这项随机试验涉及45所公立小学的数百名五年级学生（9岁和2岁）。孩子们被分为目标组和对照组。两组都阅读了《罗密欧与朱丽叶》中的一段，并被要求以罗密欧的身份写一封信，讲述与朱丽叶分离后的感受。在写作之前，目标组参加了一个30分钟的以戏剧为基础的活动，而对照组没有)”可知，本段介绍了研究的参与对象、分组方式与具体实验步骤，即介绍了研究的过程。故选A。 61．细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“O’Hanlon said she had been most surprised by the emotional understanding evident in the children’s writing, and that they showed deeper empathy and expressed emotions more vividly.(O’Hanlon说，最让她惊讶的是孩子们写作中表现出的情感理解力，他们表现出更深的同理心，更生动地表达情感)”可知，O’Hanlon对目标组写作印象最深刻的是情感深度。故选B。 62．推理判断题。根据第二段中“The study found that a drama-based approach to teaching Shakespeare broadened children’s vocabulary, improved the quality of their writing, and enhanced their emotional understanding.(研究发现，以戏剧为基础的莎士比亚教学方法拓宽了孩子们的词汇量，提高了他们的写作质量，增强了他们的情感理解力)”以及倒数第二段中““It is probably related to the drama-based process, where you are used to trying to think and feel as the character,” she added.(她补充道：“这可能与基于戏剧的过程有关，在这个过程中，你习惯于像角色一样思考和感受。”)”可推知，通过戏剧表演实践学习莎士比亚效果显著，体现“在实践中学习效果最佳”。故选B。 (C) At 14, I met Mrs. Korthaus, a 4-foot-10 English teacher at my rural Pennsylvania Catholic high school with an infectious, fearless spirit. Married nearly 40 and a latecomer to teaching, she moved to our industrial town for her husband’s job, where women had few career options. Before embarking on her teaching career, she had spent years working in corporate life, which made her financially independent. These extraordinary experiences shaped her remarkable life. And maybe mine. She gave me a judgment-free space to learn from youthful mistakes and discover my true potential. Beyond teaching me literature and journalism — skills that fueled my career as a writer — she modeled how to live a fulfilling, self-driven life, which was rare for a woman I’d known then. Growing up in a small town, I struggled to imagine a life beyond it, even fearing success despite good grades; I’d have stayed forever if I could. Mrs. Korthaus changed that. With sculpted cheekbones, straightforward speech and great enthusiasm, she celebrated students with Oprah-like joy, cheering, “YOU get an A!” We flocked to her for college recommendation letters, for she could help us see our own strengths. She opened a window to the world for us small-town kids through writing, literature and communications. Besides, she organized various after-school activities, showing us her passion for life. Famously standing on a chair to state her point, she’d thunder “The hu-MAN-uh-teez!”, wave her fist in the air like Braveheart. To her, the humanities revealed human dignity and the universal need to feel worthy, in oneself and others. She never demanded attention; her sheer joy of learning inspired it. She saw every student deeply, understanding that behavior reflects a child’s sense of being loved — a gift that made us thrive in her class and in life. More than 25 years after graduation, after building a writing career away and moving back, I still consider myself her student. It’s with her as my clear role model that I answered an unexpected life call forever shaped by her wisdom and spirit. 63．What did Mrs Korthaus provide for the author during high school? A．Various ways to improve grades. B．Financial support for a writing career. C．Guaranteed college admission recommendation. D．A safe environment for growth and self-discovery. 64．Why did Mrs. Korthaus thunder “The hu-MAN-uh-teez!”? A．To share her sheer joy of learning. B．To attract students’ attention in a funny way. C．To highlight her emphasis on the humanities. D．To show her gift for making students thrive in life. 65．Which could best describe Mrs. Korthaus? A．Traditional and devoted. B．Passionate and humorous. C．Empowering and nurturing. D．Inspiring and demanding. 66．What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A．To recall her growth as a writer. B．To remember a life-changing teacher. C．To introduce a way of career planning. D．To explain the importance of humanities. 【答案】63．D 64．C 65．C 66．B 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。作者回忆了高中时期的一位老师，讲述了她如何为自己提供成长空间、树立人生榜样、重视人文学科并深刻影响自己的人生道路，表达了对她的感激与怀念。 63．细节理解题。根据第二段中“She gave me a judgment-free space to learn from youthful mistakes and discover my true potential. (她给了我一个毫无评判的环境，让我能够从年轻时的错误中吸取教训，发掘自己的真正潜力。)”可知，Korthaus夫人给了作者一个有利于成长和自我探索的安全环境。故选D项。 64．推理判断题。根据第四段中“Famously standing on a chair to state her point, she’d thunder “The hu-MAN-uh-teez!”, wave her fist in the air like Braveheart. To her, the humanities revealed human dignity and the universal need to feel worthy, in oneself and others. (她常常站在椅子上大声阐述自己的观点，会怒吼道：“人文科学啊！”然后像《勇敢的心》中的角色那样在空中挥舞着拳头。对她而言，人文科学揭示了人类的尊严以及渴望感到有价值的普遍需求，无论是对自己还是对他人。)”可知，Korthaus夫人大声喊出这个词，是为了强调她对人文学科的重视。故选C项。 65．推理判断题。根据第二段中“Beyond teaching me literature and journalism — skills that fueled my career as a writer — she modeled how to live a fulfilling, self-driven life, which was rare for a woman I’d known then. (除了教我文学和新闻——推动我成为一名作家的技能——她还为我树立了如何过充实、自我驱动的生活的榜样，这在我当时认识的女性中是罕见的。)”和第四段中“She saw every student deeply, understanding that behavior reflects a child’s sense of being loved — a gift that made us thrive in her class and in life. (她能深入洞察每一个学生，深知行为表现反映了孩子内心所感受到的被爱的程度——这种天赋让我们在她的课堂上以及在人生中都得以茁壮成长。)”可知，Korthaus夫人教授学生技能，为他们树立人生榜样，关怀他们的成长，“赋能他人”且“悉心培育”最能体现她的特质。故选C项。 66．推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是第一段中“These extraordinary experiences shaped her remarkable life. And maybe mine. (这些非凡的经历塑造了她非凡的人生。或许也塑造了我的人生。)”和最后一段“More than 25 years after graduation, after building a writing career away and moving back, I still consider myself her student. It’s with her as my clear role model that I answered an unexpected life call forever shaped by her wisdom and spirit. (毕业25年后，在建立起自己的写作生涯并搬回来之后，我仍然认为自己是她的学生。正是将她作为我明确的榜样，我回应了一个意想不到的人生召唤，而这个召唤永远由她的智慧和精神塑造。)”可知，作者在文章中回忆了老师Korthaus夫人对自己学业、人生观和人生选择的深远影响，表达了对她的怀念和感恩。因此，其写作目的应该是怀念这位改变自己一生的老师。故选B项。 Section C（8’） Directions: Read the passage carefully. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need. The Power of Pebbling Every day, despite our demanding roles, we exchange small digital clips and emojis. These are meaningful signals that keep us connected, a way of saying, “I’m thinking of you.” In many ways, this is our newfound practice that keeps us connected when life pulls us in different directions. ____67____Inspired by Gentoo penguins (巴布亚企鹅) who offer pebbles to mates, pebbling in human relationships involves small, thoughtful gestures that show someone is on our mind. In a digital age, this means sharing videos, or articles that mirror our inner circles, serving as a modern love language that narrows emotional and physical distance. Technology can be a regenerative force for connection, though people remain doubtful about its role in human relationships. ____68____ While there may be some truth to these concerns, it’s also important to detail how technology can enhance our relationships. For those who are interested in less straight ways of knowing, the attempts for digital connection can remind us that relationships are not always defined by being physically close or responsive. ____69____ For those who find traditional forms of communication challenging, pebbling can be a strong alternative for expressing affection and maintaining closeness without the pressure of sustained conversation. Traditional expressions of affection may not feel genuine, but pebbling can allow for relational development through digital actions. In our fast-paced world, it’s tempting to dismiss these digital connections. Yet, by noticing how people create new forms of relationships, we can enrich our understanding. Screen time should not be seen only as an enemy of connection. ____70____ If that is the case, then our work is to keep searching and learning from how people adapt as relationships keep evolving. A. Critics argue that screens have replaced face-to-face conversations and that social media often creates shallow connections. B. In fact, pebbling can serve as a gentle bridge for those who are not used to conventional closeness. C. It is easy to overlook pebbling as an especially valuable form of communication for sociable people. D. It’s not surprising that this practice has earned a name: Pebbling. E. Rather, it can be a new path to building and maintaining close relationships. F. When transferred to human relationships, this practice involves tiny, considerate gestures. 【答案】67. D 68. A 69. B 70. E 【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文介绍“投石互动”，人们通过分享数字内容这类微小举动维系情感；科技虽遭质疑，却能拉近关系，是新时代构建亲密联结的新方式。 【67题详解】 根据上文“In many ways, this is our newfound practice that keeps us connected when life pulls us in different directions.(在很多方面，这正是我们新养成的习惯，它能让我们在生活将我们引向不同方向时仍保持紧密的联系)”可知，前文提到这种日常分享小片段、表情包的行为是维系联系的新方式，后文紧接着解释“pebbling”的由来，D 选项“这种行为有了一个名字：投石互动（Pebbling）” 起到承上启下、引出核心概念的作用，逻辑通顺。故选D。 【68题详解】 根据上文“Technology can be a regenerative force for connection, though people remain doubtful about its role in human relationships.(技术能够成为促进人际联系的再生力量，不过人们对于其在人类关系中的作用仍持怀疑态度)”以及后文“While there may be some truth to these concerns, it’s also important to detail how technology can enhance our relationships. For those who are interested in less straight ways of knowing, the attempts for digital connection can remind us that relationships are not always defined by being physically close or responsive.(虽然这些担忧或许有一定道理，但同样重要的是要详细说明技术如何能够增强我们的关系。对于那些寻求非传统了解方式的人来说，数字化连接的尝试能够提醒我们，关系并不总是由身体上的亲近或即时的回应来定义的)”可知，前文提到人们质疑科技在人际关系中的作用，后文说这些担忧有一定道理，A选项“批评者认为屏幕取代了面对面交流，社交媒体常造就肤浅的联系”正是具体的质疑观点，与上下文衔接紧密。故选A。 【69题详解】 根据后文“For those who find traditional forms of communication challenging, pebbling can be a strong alternative for expressing affection and maintaining closeness without the pressure of sustained conversation. Traditional expressions of affection may not feel genuine, but pebbling can allow for relational development through digital actions.(对于那些觉得传统交流方式难以适应的人来说，弹珠游戏可以成为一种强有力的替代方式，用于表达爱意和保持亲密关系，同时又无需承受长时间交谈的压力。传统的表达爱意的方式可能让人感觉不真诚，但弹珠游戏能够通过数字化的行动促进人际关系的发展)”可知，后文指出对于觉得传统沟通有难度的人来说，pebbling是很好的替代方式，B 选项“事实上，对于不习惯传统亲密方式的人，投石互动是一座温柔的桥梁”与后文内容高度契合，是段落主旨句。故选B。 【70题详解】 根据上文“Screen time should not be seen only as an enemy of connection.(屏幕使用时间不应仅仅被视为破坏人际联系的因素)”可知，前文提出不应把屏幕时间视作社交的敌人，E选项“相反，它可以成为建立和维系亲密关系的新途径”形成转折，承接上文并呼应全文核心观点。故选E。 V.

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 ____33____. There are some small ____34____ 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.

Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context. When I was a young man, I worked for several years in a sawmill (锯木厂) to support my family. It was hard, 41 labour in a building that wasn’t properly heated or cooled. We 42 through the hot summer and suffered bitterly in winter. During the cold months, even with gloves, the skin on my fingers would crack and split; I once 43 an entire pack of band-aids within just a few weeks. At lunchtime, we 44 to the parking lot — seeking fresh air in the heat or the 45 warmth of our cars in winter. One snowy afternoon, my friend and I sat in my old car, eating sandwiches and drinking cans of Coke. The heater 46 to keep us warm, but the radio played a song we loved. Gazing at the falling snow, my friend said something that 47 in my mind: “My dad used to say life was one thing after another, so you’d better enjoy the 48 in between.” We laughed, clinked our cans, and sat in comfortable silence until the whistle called us back. For years, I tried to follow that advice. I did my best to love others and 49 those problem-free times we all get every so often. Yet after almost sixty years here, I am finally also starting to 50 the one thing after another. I am learning to draw strength from life’s challenges, to grow more 51 through hardships, and to love more deeply because of them. The “one thing after another” is not an 52 of life; it is life itself. And each “thing” is an invitation — to become wiser instead of bitter, kinder instead of 53 , and braver instead of afraid. When we stop waiting for easier days and begin 54 each moment, we discover that we already possess enough to appreciate every 55 life offers. 41．A．back-breaking B．breath-taking C．heart-breaking D．hair-raising 42．A．swelled B．sweated C．trembled D．choked 43．A．wasted B．saved C．packed D．used 44．A．wandered B．marched C．escaped D．slid 45．A．strong B．steady C．pure D．faint 46．A．struggled B．attempted C．worked D．paused 47．A．stuck B．faded C．struck D．occurred 48．A．gaps B．events C．breaks D．stops 49．A．rely on B．delight in C．live on D．join in 50．A．avoid B．fear C．adopt D．enjoy 51．A．modest B．cautious C．resilient D．patient 52．A．intention B．interruption C．explanation D．expectation 53．A．ashamed B．disappointed C．hardened D．vain 54．A．observing B．embracing C．imagining D．reviewing 55．A．change B．case C．opportunity D．chapter Section B（22’） Directions: Read the following three passages.

(A) Power of Public Speaking has partnered with ASI Innovation Labs to integrate artificial intelligence into the Pops Classroom platform for improving public speaking skills. The first project is the Pops Advisor which provides an automatic evaluation of students’ video presentations with visual feedback. The Advisor offers on-demand comments to students practicing public speaking from anywhere. This flexibility benefits instructors, who can be as hands-on or hands-off during practice. While students can operate autonomously with the tool, instructors can also choose to keep track of students’ progress. Criteria Using machine learning models, the Pops Advisor analyzes the following criteria: Delivery Introduction Body Conclusion Vocal Style Vocal Quality Vocal Filler Eye Contact Body Language Credibility Attention Central Idea Preview Connective Support Language Connective Credibility Organization Signaling Ending Summary Memorable Ending Credibility Feedback The presenter receives feedback on the above four categories. And this feedback is given in the following formats: Recommendations To provide presenters with valuable feedback for the next practice, recommendations focus on specific aspects needing improvement. For instance, the recommendation can be “Your message is clear, but be sure you are grabbing your audience’s attention in your introduction to ensure they are listening.” Speech Metrics (指标) Useful speech metrics serve as quantitative descriptors on several aspects of the presentation including number of words, total presentation time, speaking rate and vocal fillers percentage. Pops Advisor can be used in any classroom setting where students are presenting, particularly in the Basic Public Speaking Course. When you are considering what can be achieved by your students toward skill development in a single school semester, Advisor increases the overall development. 56．What is the Pops Advisor? A．An evaluation tool. B．A time tracker. C．A video player. D．A voice assistant. 57．Which of the following categories provides feedback on facial expressions? A．Body. B．Delivery. C．Conclusion. D．Introduction. 58．Who is the text intended for? A．Lab technicians. B．Foreign language learners. C．Artificial Intelligence engineers. D．Public speech instructors. (B) The grammar school boy from Stratford-Upon-Avon has made headlines again after a groundbreaking study showed that Shakespeare does benefit children’s literacy and emotional development, but only if they can act him out. The study found that a drama-based approach to teaching Shakespeare broadened children’s vocabulary, improved the quality of their writing, and enhanced their emotional understanding. “The way actors work makes a big difference to how children use language and how they think about themselves,” said Jacqui O’Hanlon, lead researcher of the study. The random trial involved hundreds of Year 5 pupils (aged nine and ten) at 45 state primary schools. The children were divided into a target group and a control group. Both groups read a passage from Romeo and Juliet and were asked to write a letter as Romeo after being separated from Juliet. Before writing, the target group took part in a 30-minute drama-based activity, while the control group did not. It was shown that pupils in the target group drew on a wider vocabulary, used more complicated or rarer words, and wrote at greater length. They also appeared more comfortable writing in role. While pupils in the control group imagined how they themselves would react to being separated from a loved one, children in the target group put themselves in Romeo’s shoes and expressed that character’s emotion. O’Hanlon said she had been most surprised by the emotional understanding evident in the children’s writing, and that they showed deeper empathy and expressed emotions more vividly. “It is probably related to the drama-based process, where you are used to trying to think and feel as the character,” she added. But could the results be reproduced with any old dramatists? O’Hanlon said more research would be needed but suggested that Shakespeare’s use of 20,000 words, compared with the everyday 2,000 words, gave a massive expansion of language into children’s lives, which was combined with children using their whole bodies to bring words to life. 59．What does the study encourage children to do? A．Perform Shakespeare’s works. B．Write their own original plays. C．Learn Shakespeare’s lines by heart. D．Watch professional acting on stage. 60．Which aspect of the study does paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A．Its procedure. B．Its background. C．Its purpose. D．Its significance. 61．What impressed O’Hanlon most about the target group’s writing? A．Passage fluency. B．Emotional depth. C．Word complexity. D．Plot imagination. 62．What can be learned from the text? A．Practice makes perfect. B．Learning by doing works best. C．Reading makes a full man. D．Words are the voice of the mind. (C) At 14, I met Mrs. Korthaus, a 4-foot-10 English teacher at my rural Pennsylvania Catholic high school with an infectious, fearless spirit. Married nearly 40 and a latecomer to teaching, she moved to our industrial town for her husband’s job, where women had few career options. Before embarking on her teaching career, she had spent years working in corporate life, which made her financially independent. These extraordinary experiences shaped her remarkable life. And maybe mine. She gave me a judgment-free space to learn from youthful mistakes and discover my true potential. Beyond teaching me literature and journalism — skills that fueled my career as a writer — she modeled how to live a fulfilling, self-driven life, which was rare for a woman I’d known then. Growing up in a small town, I struggled to imagine a life beyond it, even fearing success despite good grades; I’d have stayed forever if I could. Mrs. Korthaus changed that. With sculpted cheekbones, straightforward speech and great enthusiasm, she celebrated students with Oprah-like joy, cheering, “YOU get an A!” We flocked to her for college recommendation letters, for she could help us see our own strengths. She opened a window to the world for us small-town kids through writing, literature and communications. Besides, she organized various after-school activities, showing us her passion for life. Famously standing on a chair to state her point, she’d thunder “The hu-MAN-uh-teez!”, wave her fist in the air like Braveheart. To her, the humanities revealed human dignity and the universal need to feel worthy, in oneself and others. She never demanded attention; her sheer joy of learning inspired it. She saw every student deeply, understanding that behavior reflects a child’s sense of being loved — a gift that made us thrive in her class and in life. More than 25 years after graduation, after building a writing career away and moving back, I still consider myself her student. It’s with her as my clear role model that I answered an unexpected life call forever shaped by her wisdom and spirit. 63．What did Mrs Korthaus provide for the author during high school?

Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need. The Power of Pebbling Every day, despite our demanding roles, we exchange small digital clips and emojis. These are meaningful signals that keep us connected, a way of saying, “I’m thinking of you.” In many ways, this is our newfound practice that keeps us connected when life pulls us in different directions. ____67____Inspired by Gentoo penguins (巴布亚企鹅) who offer pebbles to mates, pebbling in human relationships involves small, thoughtful gestures that show someone is on our mind. In a digital age, this means sharing videos, or articles that mirror our inner circles, serving as a modern love language that narrows emotional and physical distance. Technology can be a regenerative force for connection, though people remain doubtful about its role in human relationships. ____68____ While there may be some truth to these concerns, it’s also important to detail how technology can enhance our relationships. For those who are interested in less straight ways of knowing, the attempts for digital connection can remind us that relationships are not always defined by being physically close or responsive. ____69____ For those who find traditional forms of communication challenging, pebbling can be a strong alternative for expressing affection and maintaining closeness without the pressure of sustained conversation. Traditional expressions of affection may not feel genuine, but pebbling can allow for relational development through digital actions. In our fast-paced world, it’s tempting to dismiss these digital connections. Yet, by noticing how people create new forms of relationships, we can enrich our understanding. Screen time should not be seen only as an enemy of connection. ____70____ If that is the case, then our work is to keep searching and learning from how people adapt as relationships keep evolving. A. Critics argue that screens have replaced face-to-face conversations and that social media often creates shallow connections. B. In fact, pebbling can serve as a gentle bridge for those who are not used to conventional closeness. C. It is easy to overlook pebbling as an especially valuable form of communication for sociable people. D. It’s not surprising that this practice has earned a name: Pebbling. E. Rather, it can be a new path to building and maintaining close relationships. F. When transferred to human relationships, this practice involves tiny, considerate gestures. V. Summary writing (10’) Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize in no more than 60 words the main idea of the passage and how it is illustrated. Use your own words as far as possible.

There are some small ____34____ 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.

Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context. When I was a young man, I worked for several years in a sawmill (锯木厂) to support my family. It was hard, 41 labour in a building that wasn’t properly heated or cooled. We 42 through the hot summer and suffered bitterly in winter. During the cold months, even with gloves, the skin on my fingers would crack and split; I once 43 an entire pack of band-aids within just a few weeks. At lunchtime, we 44 to the parking lot — seeking fresh air in the heat or the 45 warmth of our cars in winter. One snowy afternoon, my friend and I sat in my old car, eating sandwiches and drinking cans of Coke. The heater 46 to keep us warm, but the radio played a song we loved. Gazing at the falling snow, my friend said something that 47 in my mind: “My dad used to say life was one thing after another, so you’d better enjoy the 48 in between.” We laughed, clinked our cans, and sat in comfortable silence until the whistle called us back. For years, I tried to follow that advice. I did my best to love others and 49 those problem-free times we all get every so often. Yet after almost sixty years here, I am finally also starting to 50 the one thing after another. I am learning to draw strength from life’s challenges, to grow more 51 through hardships, and to love more deeply because of them. The “one thing after another” is not an 52 of life; it is life itself. And each “thing” is an invitation — to become wiser instead of bitter, kinder instead of 53 , and braver instead of afraid.

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. (A) Power of Public Speaking has partnered with ASI Innovation Labs to integrate artificial intelligence into the Pops Classroom platform for improving public speaking skills. The first project is the Pops Advisor which provides an automatic evaluation of students’ video presentations with visual feedback. The Advisor offers on-demand comments to students practicing public speaking from anywhere. This flexibility benefits instructors, who can be as hands-on or hands-off during practice. While students can operate autonomously with the tool, instructors can also choose to keep track of students’ progress. Criteria Using machine learning models, the Pops Advisor analyzes the following criteria: Delivery Introduction Body Conclusion Vocal Style Vocal Quality Vocal Filler Eye Contact Body Language Credibility Attention Central Idea Preview Connective Support Language Connective Credibility Organization Signaling Ending Summary Memorable Ending Credibility Feedback The presenter receives feedback on the above four categories. And this feedback is given in the following formats: Recommendations To provide presenters with valuable feedback for the next practice, recommendations focus on specific aspects needing improvement. For instance, the recommendation can be “Your message is clear, but be sure you are grabbing your audience’s attention in your introduction to ensure they are listening.” Speech Metrics (指标) Useful speech metrics serve as quantitative descriptors on several aspects of the presentation including number of words, total presentation time, speaking rate and vocal fillers percentage. Pops Advisor can be used in any classroom setting where students are presenting, particularly in the Basic Public Speaking Course. When you are considering what can be achieved by your students toward skill development in a single school semester, Advisor increases the overall development. 56．What is the Pops Advisor? A．An evaluation tool. B．A time tracker. C．A video player. D．A voice assistant. 57．Which of the following categories provides feedback on facial expressions? A．Body. B．Delivery. C．Conclusion.

(B) The grammar school boy from Stratford-Upon-Avon has made headlines again after a groundbreaking study showed that Shakespeare does benefit children’s literacy and emotional development, but only if they can act him out. The study found that a drama-based approach to teaching Shakespeare broadened children’s vocabulary, improved the quality of their writing, and enhanced their emotional understanding. “The way actors work makes a big difference to how children use language and how they think about themselves,” said Jacqui O’Hanlon, lead researcher of the study. The random trial involved hundreds of Year 5 pupils (aged nine and ten) at 45 state primary schools. The children were divided into a target group and a control group. Both groups read a passage from Romeo and Juliet and were asked to write a letter as Romeo after being separated from Juliet. Before writing, the target group took part in a 30-minute drama-based activity, while the control group did not. It was shown that pupils in the target group drew on a wider vocabulary, used more complicated or rarer words, and wrote at greater length. They also appeared more comfortable writing in role. While pupils in the control group imagined how they themselves would react to being separated from a loved one, children in the target group put themselves in Romeo’s shoes and expressed that character’s emotion. O’Hanlon said she had been most surprised by the emotional understanding evident in the children’s writing, and that they showed deeper empathy and expressed emotions more vividly. “It is probably related to the drama-based process, where you are used to trying to think and feel as the character,” she added. But could the results be reproduced with any old dramatists? O’Hanlon said more research would be needed but suggested that Shakespeare’s use of 20,000 words, compared with the everyday 2,000 words, gave a massive expansion of language into children’s lives, which was combined with children using their whole bodies to bring words to life. 59．What does the study encourage children to do? A．Perform Shakespeare’s works. B．Write their own original plays. C．Learn Shakespeare’s lines by heart. D．Watch professional acting on stage. 60．Which aspect of the study does paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A．Its procedure. B．Its background. C．Its purpose. D．Its significance. 61．What impressed O’Hanlon most about the target group’s writing? A．Passage fluency. B．Emotional depth. C．Word complexity. D．Plot imagination. 62．What can be learned from the text? A．Practice makes perfect. B．Learning by doing works best. C．Reading makes a full man. D．Words are the voice of the mind. (C) At 14, I met Mrs. Korthaus, a 4-foot-10 English teacher at my rural Pennsylvania Catholic high school with an infectious, fearless spirit. Married nearly 40 and a latecomer to teaching, she moved to our industrial town for her husband’s job, where women had few career options. Before embarking on her teaching career, she had spent years working in corporate life, which made her financially independent. These extraordinary experiences shaped her remarkable life. And maybe mine. She gave me a judgment-free space to learn from youthful mistakes and discover my true potential. Beyond teaching me literature and journalism — skills that fueled my career as a writer — she modeled how to live a fulfilling, self-driven life, which was rare for a woman I’d known then. Growing up in a small town, I struggled to imagine a life beyond it, even fearing success despite good grades; I’d have stayed forever if I could. Mrs. Korthaus changed that. With sculpted cheekbones, straightforward speech and great enthusiasm, she celebrated students with Oprah-like joy, cheering, “YOU get an A!” We flocked to her for college recommendation letters, for she could help us see our own strengths. She opened a window to the world for us small-town kids through writing, literature and communications. Besides, she organized various after-school activities, showing us her passion for life. Famously standing on a chair to state her point, she’d thunder “The hu-MAN-uh-teez!”, wave her fist in the air like Braveheart. To her, the humanities revealed human dignity and the universal need to feel worthy, in oneself and others. She never demanded attention; her sheer joy of learning inspired it. She saw every student deeply, understanding that behavior reflects a child’s sense of being loved — a gift that made us thrive in her class and in life. More than 25 years after graduation, after building a writing career away and moving back, I still consider myself her student. It’s with her as my clear role model that I answered an unexpected life call forever shaped by her wisdom and spirit. 63．What did Mrs Korthaus provide for the author during high school? A．Various ways to improve grades. B．Financial support for a writing career. C．Guaranteed college admission recommendation. D．A safe environment for growth and self-discovery. 64．Why did Mrs. Korthaus thunder “The hu-MAN-uh-teez!”? A．To share her sheer joy of learning. B．To attract students’ attention in a funny way. C．To highlight her emphasis on the humanities. D．To show her gift for making students thrive in life. 65．Which could best describe Mrs. Korthaus? A．Traditional and devoted. B．Passionate and humorous. C．Empowering and nurturing. D．Inspiring and demanding. 66．What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A．To recall her growth as a writer. B．To remember a life-changing teacher. C．To introduce a way of career planning. D．To explain the importance of humanities. Section C（8’） Directions: Read the passage carefully. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need. The Power of Pebbling Every day, despite our demanding roles, we exchange small digital clips and emojis. These are meaningful signals that keep us connected, a way of saying, “I’m thinking of you.” In many ways, this is our newfound practice that keeps us connected when life pulls us in different directions. ____67____Inspired by Gentoo penguins (巴布亚企鹅) who offer pebbles to mates, pebbling in human relationships involves small, thoughtful gestures that show someone is on our mind. In a digital age, this means sharing videos, or articles that mirror our inner circles, serving as a modern love language that narrows emotional and physical distance. Technology can be a regenerative force for connection, though people remain doubtful about its role in human relationships. ____68____ While there may be some truth to these concerns, it’s also important to detail how technology can enhance our relationships. For those who are interested in less straight ways of knowing, the attempts for digital connection can remind us that relationships are not always defined by being physically close or responsive. ____69____ For those who find traditional forms of communication challenging, pebbling can be a strong alternative for expressing affection and maintaining closeness without the pressure of sustained conversation. Traditional expressions of affection may not feel genuine, but pebbling can allow for relational development through digital actions. In our fast-paced world, it’s tempting to dismiss these digital connections. Yet, by noticing how people create new forms of relationships, we can enrich our understanding. Screen time should not be seen only as an enemy of connection. ____70____ If that is the case, then our work is to keep searching and learning from how people adapt as relationships keep evolving. A. Critics argue that screens have replaced face-to-face conversations and that social media often creates shallow connections. B. In fact, pebbling can serve as a gentle bridge for those who are not used to conventional closeness. C. It is easy to overlook pebbling as an especially valuable form of communication for sociable people. D. It’s not surprising that this practice has earned a name: Pebbling. E. Rather, it can be a new path to building and maintaining close relationships. F. When transferred to human relationships, this practice involves tiny, considerate gestures. V.
