The leather jacket is age-worn and soft. I found it hanging in the window of a shop in Brighton, England. I was there to deliver a talk on modern women’s writing at an international conference, a PhD student eager to make a name for herself and waiting for her life to start. I had just turned 28.
I’m still closely connected to that woman, her dreams and her ambition, although she also frightens me. She was always quite determined, this leather jacket woman—she had a five-year plan and was sticking to it! This was the woman who couldn’t find time to visit her grandmother, who regularly missed her nieces’ and nephews’ birthday parties, and who left and didn’t look back.
She and I are one and the same, but we are also very different. There was a change that happened a few years into the five-year plan. Each time one goal post was reached, another took its place. This is the pattern of the overly ambitious. I started to doubt whether it would result in any real success other than an unwavering (坚定不移的) ability to give up everything else along the way. My determination wavered. I realized I didn’t want the same things anymore. The jacket moved to the back of the wardrobe .
Seven years later, as I stand in front of my wardrobe filled with useless clothes, I don’t know what to do with the jacket. When England’s cold spread to my bones years earlier, the jacket had felt like a practical thing I bought. Here in Australia’s sunshine, it always felt a little silly. I let it fall heavily on the bed alongside the other clothes I’ve decided to give away because they no longer make the cut.
Yet, despite its uselessness and how much space it takes up, at the last moment I return the leather jacket to the wardrobe. I think it will always stand for a part of myself that I’m not quite willing to give up forever — that ambitious, motivated woman.
24. Why did the author go to Brighton?
A. To attend a conference. B. To go window shopping.
C. To study as a PhD student. D. To start her new life.
25. What can we know about the writer’s late 20s?
A. Her taste in clothing. B. Her wavering determination.
C. Her priorities in life. D. Her family relationships.
26. What happened to the author during her five-year plan?
A. She gave up all her dreams.
B. She started to question her choices.
C. She achieved her goals successfully.
D. She became more determined to succeed.
27. Why did the author keep the jacket?
A. To encourage other women. B. To treasure her real self.
C. To help her keep warm. D. To help her set goals.
C
It was 3:30 in the morning. I was holding my baby, scrolling through eBay and feeling groggy (昏昏沉沉的). I had a brief out-of-body experience, seeing myself as an outsider. There was my baby, gazing up at me, and there was me, looking down at my phone. I was horrified. It was then that I decided to “break up” with my phone and set better boundaries.
Our most time-sucking apps are designed to grab our attention because that’s how their creators make money. These apps are part of the “attention economy”, where our attention and data are sold. We are not the customers of these apps; advertisers are. We are the product, tricked into giving our most valuable asset (资产)—our attention—away for free.
We only experience what we pay attention to; we only remember what we pay attention to. Sure, there are many reasons to pay attention to our phones. But like time, our attention is limited: Every minute spent scrolling is a minute not spent on something else.
App makers use psychological tricks from gambling. These tricks control the release of dopamine (多巴胺), a chemical that motivates us to repeat behaviors. This system doesn’t distinguish between good and bad behaviors—it just encourages repetition. Phones and apps are packed with dopamine triggers. Bright colors, novelty, unpredictability, and rewards like social approval are all dopamine triggers. This is why social media, news, email, games and shopping apps are so addictive.
If we don’t recognize what is happening and fight back, we risk becoming like lab rats trained to press a lever (控制杆) for food. One of the first steps I took was to minimize my exposure to dopamine triggers by turning off most notifications, hiding or deleting my most time-sucking apps, and turning my phone’s screen to black and white. I also banned my phone from my bedroom and the dining table and charged it in a closet at night.
My relationship with my phone still isn’t perfect—no relationship ever is. But it has improved in ways I never would have expected.
28. Why did the author decide to “break up” with her phone?
A. She needed more sleep.
B. She found apps too boring.
C. She wanted to reduce her spending on eBay.
D. She realized her attention was being guided unfairly.
29. Who are the real customers of apps in the “attention economy” according to the author?
A. Phone users. B. Advertisers. C. App creators. D. Data analysts.
30. How do app makers make their apps addictive?
A. By limiting user choices. B. By targeting dopamine triggers.
C. By providing useful content. D. By offering various rewards.
31. What does the author want to convey in this article?
A. Breaking up with your phone is easy.
B. Phones are designed to be addictive.
C. Don’t let your phone steal your attention.
D. More time should be devoted to family.
D
Bees are known to tell time by light and social clues. Now, researchers have shown that the biological clocks of bees can be changed by another surprising factor: temperature cycles inside the hive (蜂巢).
The researchers tried to better understand how bees lived in areas beyond where light entered the hive. They were surprised to find clear temperature fluctuations across the day throughout the hive, which was caused by daylight.
To understand how important this temperature cycle was to a bee’s activity, the researchers put bees in total darkness all the time while exposing them to the temperature cycles they observed within the hive. Six days later, the scientists moved the temperature cycle back by six hours. “We saw that the bees changed their activity with the temperature, meaning their daily routines were reactive to temperature,” a researcher said.
The discovery that bees can tell exact time from temperature cycles inside the hive shows that on a cloudy day or when bees aren’t going outdoors, they have other means to tell time exactly. This will affect the way that researchers understand, explain and combine what they know of bee behavior.
More broadly, as more extreme weather events occur around the world, bees will face challenges to continuing the activities that keep them and the agriculture they support healthy and energetic. If part of the southern U.S. is hit with an unexpected snowstorm, bees getting ready to search for food might not realize they need to save energy and heat the hive. In the event of a 100-degree day, bees will have to spend a lot of energy keeping the hive cool. It is those considerations that will influence hive health or possible hive breakdown.
“We want to see how important this research is this winter in Tennessee, when bees aren’t leaving the hive as much,” researchers said. “We will be interested to see how our findings apply to zones where temperature varies more greatly across the year.” This research will also reshape how researchers think about bees’ biological rhythms.
32. What does the underlined word “fluctuations” in paragraph 2 probably mean?
A. decreases. B. changes. C. drops. D. ranges.
33. How did the researchers conduct the experiment described ?
A. By observing bees in natural daylight.
B. By removing temperature cycles from the hive.
C. By keeping bees in darkness with controlled temperature cycles.
D. By comparing bees’ activities inside and outside the hive.
34. What is the main purpose of paragraph 4?
A. To explain how bees communicate with each other.
B. To discuss the limitations of the research findings.
C. To show the significance of the new discovery about bees.
D. To describe the process of how bees regulate their body temperature.
35. Which might be the best title for the passage?
A. Lights Affect Bees’ Biological Clocks B. Bee Behavior Surprises Researchers
C. Bees React Smartly to Extreme Weather D. Bees Can Tell Time by Temperature

Each of us struggles for self-respect and self-worth to some degree. I spent much time trying to achieve perfection in every aspect of my life.
I was a happy kid with a lot of friends and a supportive family.But growing up was really 41 and even scary sometimes. During my childhood, I was constantly involved in something that included people’s viewing my achievements or my 42 . I wanted everyone’s praise and acceptance, but I was my own toughest critic. After I graduated from high school, my desire to be “thin” began to trouble me. I began trying to diet by 43 my food.
In the beginning, I felt great—attractive and successful, almost superhuman. I even thought that I was better than everyone else. What I didn’t see was that I was slowly 44 myself. People around me began to notice my weight loss. They said with concern. “You’re losing too much weight.” “Elisa,you’re so thin.” All their words only suggested that I was getting closer to “ 45 ”. Sadly, I took my physical 46 the first important in my life, 47 that it was the way to become successful and accepted.
Then I cut down my food more and more, until a 48 day consisted of half a teaspoon of non-fat yoghurt and coffee in the morning, and a cup of grapes at night.

The beating became so rapid and so strong that I could no longer 52 . What I had done to diet nearly caused me to have a heart attack. I stood up, and immediately fell down. I was really 53 , and I knew I needed help. My roommate rushed me to the hospital, beginning the long road to my 54 . It took a lot—doctors, nurses, nutritionists, food supplements.
And most importantly, a sense of what was true about myself got back on track with reality. I realized that with my 55 of trying to be “perfect” on the outside, I had sacrificed who I was on the inside. What I know now is, we are already perfect.

Rita, a young girl from a poor background, walked along the road with a frown ruining her usually cheerful face. Tomorrow was her best friend Kathryn’s birthday, and Rita had no suitable dress for the celebration. Her family had fallen on hard times since the closure of her father’s company, leaving them unable to afford new clothes.
Deciding not to let this dampen her spirits, Rita chose an old dress that once held a special place in her heart. As it was now too short, she hoped to have it altered (修改). She carried the dress to a local tailor, only to be met with disappointment as the tailor explained that he could not take on any more alteration work due to an increasing number of orders.
Holding the paper bag with her old dress inside, Rita felt a wave of uncertainty. “What am I to do?” she wondered. Just then, her attention was drawn to a lady exiting a car and heading toward the bank. As the lady hurriedly searched for some papers in her purse, her wallet slipped out unnoticed. Without hesitation, Rita rushed to pick up the wallet and waited patiently on the steps outside the bank, despite the crowd and the time passing.
Finally, the lady emerged from the bank. When Rita returned the wallet, the lady was overwhelmed with gratitude. The lady checked the contents and found everything was placed as they had been. She noticed the girl’s face was covered with sadness. “What’s wrong with you, honey?” the lady asked.
Rita told the lady that she was invited to her friend’s birthday party but she had no suitable dress and the local tailor refused to alter her old dress for the party.
