My teenage son Karl became withdrawn after his father died. As a single parent, I tried to do my best to talk to him. But the more I tried, the more he pulled away when his report card arrived during his junior year, it said that he had been absent 95 times from classes and had six failing grades for the year. At this rate he would never graduate. I sent him to the school adviser, and I even begged him. Nothing worked.
One night I felt so powerless that I got down on my knees and pleaded for help. “Please God, I can’t do anything more for my son. I’m at the end of my rope. I’m giving the whole thing up to you.”
I was at work when I got a phone call. A man introduced himself as the headmaster. “I want to talk to you about Karl’s absences.” Before he could say another word, I choked up and all my disappointment and sadness over Karl came pouring out into the ears of this stranger. “I love my son but I just don’t know what to do. I’ve tried everything to get Karl to go back to school and nothing has worked. It’s out of my hands.” For a moment there was silence on the other end of the line. The headmaster seriously said, “Thank you for your time”, and hung up.
Karl’s next report card showed a marked improvement m nis grades. Finally, he even made the honor roll. In his fourth year, I attended a parent-teacher meeting with Karl. I noticed that his teachers were astonished at the way he had turned himself around. On our way home, he said, “Mum, remember that call from the headmaster last year?” I nodded. “That was me. I thought I’d play a joke but when I heard what you said, it really hit me how much I was hurting you. That’s when I knew I had to make you proud.”
4. What does the underlined word “withdrawn” in paragraph 1 probably mean?
A. Unwilling to communicate. B. Addicted to online games.
C. Unable to control his anger. D. Tired of staying at home.
5. Why was the caller silent on the call?
A. He was too moved to say anything. B. He waited for the mother to continue.
C. He didn’t want to be recognized. D. He didn’t know how to comfort her.

C
Climate change is speeding up the frequency and seriousness of extreme(极端的) weather events in places like the Horn of Africa, where deadly floods and the worst drought hit in decades. Besides, traditional weather forecast(预报) models in sub- Saharan Africa often aren’t dependable enough to forecast extreme weather events accurately(准确地) ahead of time, leaving the areas at risk. Based on the facts, accurate and timely forecasts are important to safeguard lives and livelihoods.
Climate scientists are building artificial intelligence (AI) into the traditional weather forecasting method in East Africa to improve the accuracy of extreme weather forecasts. By using both physical atmospheric processes in traditional forecasting and AI, researchers develop a first- of- its- kind new modeling approach to give more accurate rainfall forecasts.“ We start from the traditional forecasts and add the AI model over it to make up for what the traditional forecasts have missed, so that the final forecast results can more accurately match the data that has actually been observed,” explains Shruti Nath, a climate scientist and researcher at the University of Oxford Department of Physics.
According to Shruti Nath, this model, which only requires a notebook computer to run, without the need for expensive supercomputers, gives local meteorological (气象的) organizations an affordable way of making more accurate forecasts in an area where there is a shortage of accurate observational data. The researchers say the project could change early warning systems in East Africa, making the area get better prepared for the extreme weather caused by climate change.
Traditionally, many forecasting organizations in Africa did not have good computational resources. The project is supported by an IT company, which provides funding and computational resources. This approach gives them the ability to use AI to make forecasting at the least computational expense.
The model is currently being rolled out in Kenya and Ethiopia. If successful in East Africa, researchers hope to use it in other parts of the world facing similar challenges. More countries are trying to spread the technology as well as build local ownership and trust.
8. What does the author want to stress in the first paragraph?
A. The necessity of using the new weather forecast model.
B. The great climate changes caused by human activities.
C. The seriousness of the flood and drought in Africa.
D. Little progress has been made in weather forecasts.
9. How does the new weather forecast model work?
A. It needs much less observational data.
B. It uses supercomputers to process data.
C. It combines AI with the traditional method.
D. It depends on AI instead of the former way.
10. What can we say about the new weather forecast model?
A. It runs easily. B. It is low- cost.
C. It doesn’t work as wished. D. It is geographically limited.
11. What can be the most suitable title for the text?
A. Climate Change and Its Effects on Africa
B. Uncertainty of Weather Forecast with AI
C. AI Helping Improve Weather Forecast in Sub- Saharan Africa
D. The Challenges Faced by Traditional Weather Forecast Model
【答案】8. A 9. C 10. B 11. C
【解析】

D
Imagine you’re at a wedding. You enjoy a beautiful sunset with friends, then go to the bar for drinks. Suddenly, someone pours a large glass of red wine all over your clothes. You feel bad and a little mad.
Years later, perhaps you won’t remember the sunset most clearly — you’ll remember the bad experience. This is due to the “peak-end rule.” Our memories don’t record every detail of an experience. Instead, they focus on two key moments: the strongest feeling part (the “peak”) and the final part (the “end”). How long the event lasted matters less, a phenomenon (现象) known as “duration neglect.” For example, one bite of amazing chocolate is often remembered more vividly than slowly eating a whole bar of ordinary chocolate. The peak moment and the quality of the ending matter more than how long it lasts in shaping our memory.
This idea was clearly shown by psychologist (心理学家) Daniel Kahneman and his team in a well-known experiment. Participants (参与者) went through two trials (试验). In one, they placed a hand in uncomfortably cold water (14℃) for 60 seconds. In the other, they placed the other hand in the same cold water for 60 seconds, but then kept it in for an extra 30 seconds during which the temperature was raised slightly to 15℃ — still cold, but noticeably less so. When later asked which trial they would prefer to repeat, a majority chose the longer one. Despite experiencing discomfort for a longer total time, the memory of the trial was less negative because it ended on a slightly less uncomfortable note.
The peak-end rule has been observed in many areas of life, from getting medical treatments to judging customer service. Businesses actively use this understanding. For example, IKEA places affordable treats like hot dogs and ice cream at the exit, aiming to end the shopping journey on a positive peak. Similarly, doctors often give children a small prize like a sticker after a check-up, and vacation planners might save a special activity for the final day.
Understanding this rule helps us to be more careful about designing experiences, whether planning a birthday party, a study schedule, or a community event. By thoughtfully considering where the natural or created peaks might be and how the experience ends, we can shape more positive and lasting memories for ourselves and others.
12. What does the second paragraph mainly talk about?
A. It argues that our memories are usually wrong.
B. It explains the peak-end rule and how it works.
C. It gives advice on how to remember things better.
D. It describes how people remember food experiences.
13. Why did most participants choose the longer trial in the experiment?
A. They were left with a more positive impression.
B. They forgot about the unpleasant experiences.
C. They preferred much higher water temperature.
D. They experienced less discomfort in the process.
14. What vacation plan best shows the peak-end rule?
A. Put the most exciting part at the beginning.
B. Arrange low-cost activities during the trip.
C. Have a surprise in store for the final day.
D. Avoid unpleasant activities in the schedule.
15. What is the author’s view on the peak-end rule?
A. It is a useful tool for business design.
B. It reduces memories of painful events.
C. It makes experiences more enjoyable.
D. It helps overcome negative situations.
【答案】12. B 13. A 14. C 15. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章通过日常案例和心理学实验,解释了“峰终定律”如何影响人们对体验的记忆,并举例说明了该定律在商业和生活中的应用价值。
【12题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段中“This is due to the “peak-end rule.” Our memories don’t record every detail of an experience. Instead, they focus on two key moments: the strongest feeling part (the “peak”) and the final part (the “end”). How long the event lasted matters less, a phenomenon (现象) known as “duration neglect.” For example, one bite of amazing chocolate is often remembered more vividly than slowly eating a whole bar of ordinary chocolate. The peak moment and the quality of the ending matter more than how long it lasts in shaping our memory. (这是由于“峰终定律”所致。我们的记忆并不会记录经历的每一个细节。相反,它们会聚焦于两个关键时刻:最强烈的感受部分(即“高峰”)和最后的部分(即“终点”)。事件持续的时间并不那么重要,这种现象被称为“持续时间忽视”。例如,一次美味巧克力的短暂品尝往往比慢慢享用一整块普通巧克力的记忆更为深刻。高峰时刻和终点时的品质比其持续时间在塑造我们的记忆方面更为重要。)”可知,该段详细说明了“峰终定律”的定义,并以品尝巧克力为例解释这一定律如何运作,即主要解释了“峰终定律”及其运作方式。故选B项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“Despite experiencing discomfort for a longer total time, the memory of the trial was less negative because it ended on a slightly less uncomfortable note. (尽管总体经历了更长时间的不适,但对这次试验的记忆负面感更弱,因为它以稍轻微的不适感结束。)”可知,大多数参与者选择时间更长的试验,是因为他们留下了更积极的印象。故选A项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“The peak moment and the quality of the ending matter more than how long it lasts in shaping our memory.(在塑造我们的记忆方面,巅峰时刻和结局的质量比它持续多久更重要)”以及第四段中“Similarly, doctors often give children a small prize like a sticker after a check-up, and vacation planners might save a special activity for the final day. (同样,医生经常在检查后给孩子们一个小奖品,比如贴纸,度假规划者可能会在最后一天安排一项特别的活动)”可知,“峰终定律”强调结尾体验对记忆的关键影响,将惊喜安排在假期最后一天,可创造积极的“终值”,从而提升整体记忆,最能体现该定律。故选C项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中“Businesses actively use this understanding. For example, IKEA places affordable treats like hot dogs and ice cream at the exit, aiming to end the shopping journey on a positive peak. Similarly, doctors often give children a small prize like a sticker after a check-up, and vacation planners might save a special activity for the final day. (企业会积极利用这种认知。例如,宜家会在出口处摆放价格实惠的美食,如热狗和冰淇淋,旨在让购物之旅在积极的高潮中结束。)”可知,作者用宜家的案例说明该定律的应用价值。由此推知,作者的观点是“峰终定律”是商业设计的有用工具。故选A项。
第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
In just over a month, Australia will start a social media ban (禁令). From December 10, people under 16 will only be able to see public content on platforms (平台) such as Facebook and TikTok, and they will not be allowed to have their own accounts. ____16____ But many parents worry about how teens will respond.
My research shows social and digital media use is already a major source of family conflict. Young people often pressure parents for devices or certain apps to keep in touch with their friends. So a government reason for the ban is to help parents manage this problem. ____17____
However, we still don’t know what will happen on December 10. Some experts argue young people may get around the ban, for example with apps that hide identity (身份). This calls for solutions. ____18____ Because children are different, parents should act based on family values and a child’s individuality.
Even so, if teens are used to social media and suddenly it’s gone, they may feel sad or angry, and parents will have to manage the results. Social media is not only mindless scrolling (滚动屏幕). ____19____ Therefore, they will need other ways to stay in touch, and parents should help them keep friendships. Parents should also know that this change can be difficult.
____20____ So parents should explain that less time on social media can reduce endless scrolling and cyberbullying (网络霸凌). Yet the ban does not make kids 100 percent “safe” online: they may move to other spaces, and the ban covers only some platforms. So parents should keep talking about what children see and do online, help them build the ability to judge online information. Also, they need to stay interested and willing to guide their children instead of controlling everything.
A. It can help young people build connections.
B. Some safety experts and parents welcome this.
C. But there is no one right answer for every family.
D. It may be easier for them to say, “This is the law.”
E. It is sometimes hard to see eye to eye with each other.
F. Actually, young people respond better to rules when given a clear reason.
G. This is eating away at the close relationship between parents and children.
【答案】16. B 17. D 18. C 19. A 20. F
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。主要探讨澳大利亚即将实施的未成年人社交媒体禁令,分析其对家庭的影响,并为家长提供应对该禁令的相关建议。
【16题详解】
根据前文“In just over a month, Australia will start a social media ban (禁令). From December 10, people under 16 will only be able to see public content on platforms (平台) such as Facebook and TikTok, and they will not be allowed to have their own accounts. (再过一个多月,澳大利亚将开始实施社交媒体禁令。从12月10日起,16岁以下的青少年只能在脸书、抖音等平台查看公共内容,且不允许拥有个人账号。)”以及后文“But many parents worry about how teens will respond. (但许多家长担心青少年会作何反应。)”中的But可知,此空应说明有部分群体对该禁令持支持态度,与后文家长的担忧形成转折,B选项“Some safety experts and parents welcome this. (一些安全专家和家长对此表示欢迎。)”体现了对禁令的正面态度,与后文的转折关系衔接自然,符合语境。故选B项。
【17题详解】
根据前文“My research shows social and digital media use is already a major source of family conflict. Young people often pressure parents for devices or certain apps to keep in touch with their friends. So a government reason for the ban is to help parents manage this problem. (我的研究表明,使用社交和数字媒体已经成为家庭冲突的主要根源。年轻人常常向父母施压,要求配备电子设备或安装特定应用程序来与朋友保持联系。因此,政府出台这项禁令的一个原因是帮助父母解决这一问题。)”可知,前文说明禁令能帮助父母解决因社交媒体引发的家庭矛盾,此空应承接该内容,说明禁令对父母的具体帮助,D选项“It may be easier for them to say, “This is the law.” (对他们来说,说“这是法律规定的”会容易得多。)”中的them指代前文的parents,且点明禁令能让父母在管教孩子时更有依据,符合语境。故选D项。
【18题详解】
根据前文“However, we still don’t know what will happen on December 10. Some experts argue young people may get around the ban, for example with apps that hide identity (身份). This calls for solutions. (然而,我们仍不知道12月10日会发生什么。一些专家认为,年轻人可能会通过一些隐藏身份的应用程序来规避这项禁令。这就需要找到解决办法。)”以及后文“Because children are different, parents should act based on family values and a child’s individuality. (因为每个孩子都是不同的,父母应该根据家庭价值观和孩子的个性来采取行动。)”可知,前文指出需要解决年轻人规避禁令的问题,后文说明父母应根据孩子的具体情况采取行动,此空应衔接二者,说明解决该问题没有统一的办法,C选项“But there is no one right answer for every family. (但对于每个家庭来说,没有一个通用的正确答案。)”承接前文的解决办法需求,且引出后文的个性化应对方式,符合语境。故选C项。
【19题详解】
根据前文“Even so, if teens are used to social media and suddenly it’s gone, they may feel sad or angry, and parents will have to manage the results. Social media is not only mindless scrolling (滚动屏幕).

(因此,他们需要其他方式来保持联系,父母应该帮助他们维持友谊。)”可知,前文指出社交媒体并非只有消极作用,后文说明青少年需要其他方式维持社交联系,此空应说明社交媒体的积极社交作用,A选项“It can help young people build connections. (它能帮助年轻人建立人际关系。)”承接前文的社交媒体的非消极性,且引出后文的维持友谊的需求,符合语境。故选A项。
【20题详解】
根据后文“So parents should explain that less time on social media can reduce endless scrolling and cyberbullying (网络霸凌). (因此,父母应该向孩子解释,减少使用社交媒体的时间可以减少无意义的刷屏和网络霸凌。)”可知,后文建议父母向孩子解释禁令背后的原因,此空应作为该建议的前提,说明年轻人对有明确原因的规则接受度更高,F选项“Actually, young people respond better to rules when given a clear reason. (事实上,当得知明确的原因时,年轻人会更愿意遵守规则。)”引出后文的解释原因的建议,符合语境。故选F项。

【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。主要说明了罗马一家中式小店凭借正宗肉夹馍等美食走红,传播西安饮食文化。新一代中餐经营者正改变海外对中餐的刻板印象,以地道风味推动文化交流,展现中华文化的丰富内涵。
【36题详解】
考查形容词。句意:以其招牌小吃肉夹馍命名的Jiamo Lab,已成为当地人气餐厅,还登上了热门媒体推荐榜单,肉夹馍是一种传统中式面饼,里面夹着焖炖的肉。修饰名词snack用形容词representative。故填representative。
【37题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:以其招牌小吃肉夹馍命名的Jiamo Lab,已成为当地人气餐厅,还登上了热门媒体推荐榜单,肉夹馍是一种传统中式面饼,里面夹着焖炖的肉。短语be stuffed with表示“塞满”,此处为过去分词作定语。故填stuffed。
【38题详解】
考查冠词。句意:Jiamo Lab坐落于菲乌姆广场附近,这座独特的广场因紧邻市中心、地理位置优越而闻名。这里不仅提供美食,更传递着一段段故事。square为泛指,且unique是发音以辅音音素开头的单词。故填a。
【39题详解】
考查时态语态。句意:这家餐厅的墙壁上贴满了有关肉夹馍的起源以及其诞生地——古老城市西安的相关信息。walls和line是被动关系,且陈述事实用一般现在时的被动语态,谓语用复数。故填are lined。
【40题详解】
考查代词。句意:“当我们在这里用餐时,我们会被墙上的那些故事所吸引,并全身心地沉浸其中。”短语throw oneself into表示“沉浸于……”,主语是we,故用反身代词ourselves。故填ourselves。
【41题详解】
考查时态。句意:过去,海外的中餐往往就意味着炒饭或咕咾肉,但如今,新一代中餐经营者正在改变这一印象,推出从四川小吃到西安街头美食等正宗的地方特色菜。根据上文In the past可知发生在过去,为一般过去时。故填meant。
【42题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:过去,海外的中餐往往就意味着炒饭或咕咾肉,但如今,新一代中餐经营者正在改变这一印象,推出从四川小吃到西安街头美食等正宗的地方特色菜。specialties和range是主动关系,故用现在分词作定语。故填ranging。
【43题详解】
考查介词。句意:Jiamo Lab的老板决心坚守传统风味,他表示希望自己的餐厅能真正成为当地生活的一部分。短语stay true to表示“忠于……,坚守”。故填to。
【44题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:正宗的中国美食为文化交流提供了一个平台,这证明了它远不止是一道道美食那么简单。定语从句修饰先行词stage,在从句作地点状语。故填where。
【45题详解】
考查名词。句意:是时候更多地展示中国的传统文化了,让全世界都能领略到中国文化的非凡丰富性了。作动词的宾语,用名词richness,不可数。故填richness。

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。
Siya was excited to set off for her long-awaited holiday in Himachal. After working at a stretch for months, she couldn’t wait to escape to the peaceful mountains. Her parents would be joining her too. The weather, the mountains and the peace, everything would be theirs for a whole month!
She reached a day earlier to settle into the guest house before her parents arrived. As she sat by the window, sipping her coffee and watching the mountains, the caretaker of the guest house arrived, worried. “Ma’am, there’s been heavy snowfall in all parts of the state. So, the flights to Himachal have been canceled. It’s going to be difficult for anyone to get through for the next few days,” he said.
Siya’s heart sank. She quickly grabbed her phone to call her mother when a message arrived: “Dear kiddo, our flight got cancelled because of the snow. We’re stuck here for five more days. Stay safe, and we’ll be there as soon as we can.”
“Well, what now?” Siya muttered to herself, feeling disappointed. “I was looking forward to seeing them. What will I do alone for so long?!”
The next day, Siya spent her time at the guest house all by herself. The snow continued to fall heavily and the roads remained blocked. It was peaceful yet lonely. She spent her time reading books and watching snowflakes but felt downhearted about how her holiday had begun.
Then, on the second day, as she was lying on the couch of the living room, she heard a soft sound, like a tiny cry. She froze for a moment, wondering if her mind was playing tricks on her. She stood up and followed the sound to the porch (门廊).
注意:
1.写作词数应为150个左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
To her surprise, there was a wet, shaking baby cat on the porch.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
As her parents stepped inside, Siya spotted an adult cat in the doorway.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 To her surprise, there was a wet, shaking baby cat on the porch. Its fur was matted with snow, and its small body trembled violently from the cold. Siya’s heart softened instantly — all her disappointment faded away. She rushed back inside to grab a warm towel, gently wrapped the kitten up, and placed it near the fireplace. She then fetched a bowl of warm milk, which the little cat drank eagerly. For the next few days, Siya no longer felt lonely. She named the kitten “Snowy” and spent her time feeding it, playing with it, and watching it curl up in her lap. The snow outside still blocked the roads, but her days were now filled with tiny, warm joys.
As her parents stepped inside, Siya spotted an adult cat in the doorway. It stood there cautiously, its eyes fixed on Snowy in Siya’s arms. Suddenly, Snowy let out a soft meow and jumped down, running straight to the adult cat. The two rubbed against each other gently — Siya realized it must be Snowy’s mother. Her parents laughed as they watched the sweet scene. “We were worried you’d be bored,” her mother said, hugging her. Siya smiled and shook her head. “Snowy kept me company,” she said, looking at the two cats. Though the holiday started with a twist, it turned out to be more wonderful than she’d imagined — full of unexpected warmth and love.
【解析】
【导语】故事以人物为线索展开,讲述西亚满心期待前往喜马偕尔邦度假,她提前一天到民宿安顿,却得知因大雪航班取消,父母需滞留五天。之后她独自在民宿待着,虽环境宁静却倍感孤独,直到第二天在客厅听到细微的叫声,便循着声音走到了门廊。
【详解】1.段落续写
①根据第一段首句“令她吃惊的是,门廊上有一只湿漉漉的、发抖的小猫。”可知,接下来可描写西娅把小猫带回家,并精心照顾,并和小猫逐渐产生的感情。
②根据第二段首句“当她的父母走进去时,西娅发现门口有一只成年猫”可知,接下来可描写小猫径直奔向成年猫,此时西娅意识到她是小猫的妈妈,看到它们温馨的相见场景西娅觉得这个假期充满爱和温暖。
2.续写线索:看到小猫——带小猫回家——精心照顾——产生感情——成年猫到来——小猫和成年猫温馨的相见场景——西娅觉得假期充满爱和温暖

My teenage son Karl became withdrawn after his father died. As a single parent, I tried to do my best to talk to him. But the more I tried, the more he pulled away when his report card arrived during his junior year, it said that he had been absent 95 times from classes and had six failing grades for the year. At this rate he would never graduate. I sent him to the school adviser, and I even begged him. Nothing worked.
One night I felt so powerless that I got down on my knees and pleaded for help. “Please God, I can’t do anything more for my son. I’m at the end of my rope. I’m giving the whole thing up to you.”
I was at work when I got a phone call. A man introduced himself as the headmaster. “I want to talk to you about Karl’s absences.” Before he could say another word, I choked up and all my disappointment and sadness over Karl came pouring out into the ears of this stranger. “I love my son but I just don’t know what to do. I’ve tried everything to get Karl to go back to school and nothing has worked. It’s out of my hands.” For a moment there was silence on the other end of the line. The headmaster seriously said, “Thank you for your time”, and hung up.
Karl’s next report card showed a marked improvement m nis grades. Finally, he even made the honor roll. In his fourth year, I attended a parent-teacher meeting with Karl. I noticed that his teachers were astonished at the way he had turned himself around. On our way home, he said, “Mum, remember that call from the headmaster last year?” I nodded. “That was me. I thought I’d play a joke but when I heard what you said, it really hit me how much I was hurting you. That’s when I knew I had to make you proud.”

Climate change is speeding up the frequency and seriousness of extreme(极端的) weather events in places like the Horn of Africa, where deadly floods and the worst drought hit in decades. Besides, traditional weather forecast(预报) models in sub- Saharan Africa often aren’t dependable enough to forecast extreme weather events accurately(准确地) ahead of time, leaving the areas at risk. Based on the facts, accurate and timely forecasts are important to safeguard lives and livelihoods.
Climate scientists are building artificial intelligence (AI) into the traditional weather forecasting method in East Africa to improve the accuracy of extreme weather forecasts. By using both physical atmospheric processes in traditional forecasting and AI, researchers develop a first- of- its- kind new modeling approach to give more accurate rainfall forecasts.“ We start from the traditional forecasts and add the AI model over it to make up for what the traditional forecasts have missed, so that the final forecast results can more accurately match the data that has actually been observed,” explains Shruti Nath, a climate scientist and researcher at the University of Oxford Department of Physics.
According to Shruti Nath, this model, which only requires a notebook computer to run, without the need for expensive supercomputers, gives local meteorological (气象的) organizations an affordable way of making more accurate forecasts in an area where there is a shortage of accurate observational data. The researchers say the project could change early warning systems in East Africa, making the area get better prepared for the extreme weather caused by climate change.
Traditionally, many forecasting organizations in Africa did not have good computational resources. The project is supported by an IT company, which provides funding and computational resources. This approach gives them the ability to use AI to make forecasting at the least computational expense.
The model is currently being rolled out in Kenya and Ethiopia. If successful in East Africa, researchers hope to use it in other parts of the world facing similar challenges. More countries are trying to spread the technology as well as build local ownership and trust.
8. What does the author want to stress in the first paragraph?
A. The necessity of using the new weather forecast model.
B. The great climate changes caused by human activities.
C. The seriousness of the flood and drought in Africa.
D. Little progress has been made in weather forecasts.
9. How does the new weather forecast model work?
A. It needs much less observational data.
B. It uses supercomputers to process data.
C. It combines AI with the traditional method.
D. It depends on AI instead of the former way.
10. What can we say about the new weather forecast model?
A. It runs easily. B. It is low- cost.
C. It doesn’t work as wished. D. It is geographically limited.
11. What can be the most suitable title for the text?
A. Climate Change and Its Effects on Africa
B. Uncertainty of Weather Forecast with AI
C. AI Helping Improve Weather Forecast in Sub- Saharan Africa
D. The Challenges Faced by Traditional Weather Forecast Model

Imagine you’re at a wedding. You enjoy a beautiful sunset with friends, then go to the bar for drinks. Suddenly, someone pours a large glass of red wine all over your clothes. You feel bad and a little mad.
Years later, perhaps you won’t remember the sunset most clearly — you’ll remember the bad experience. This is due to the “peak-end rule.” Our memories don’t record every detail of an experience. Instead, they focus on two key moments: the strongest feeling part (the “peak”) and the final part (the “end”). How long the event lasted matters less, a phenomenon (现象) known as “duration neglect.” For example, one bite of amazing chocolate is often remembered more vividly than slowly eating a whole bar of ordinary chocolate. The peak moment and the quality of the ending matter more than how long it lasts in shaping our memory.
This idea was clearly shown by psychologist (心理学家) Daniel Kahneman and his team in a well-known experiment. Participants (参与者) went through two trials (试验). In one, they placed a hand in uncomfortably cold water (14℃) for 60 seconds. In the other, they placed the other hand in the same cold water for 60 seconds, but then kept it in for an extra 30 seconds during which the temperature was raised slightly to 15℃ — still cold, but noticeably less so. When later asked which trial they would prefer to repeat, a majority chose the longer one. Despite experiencing discomfort for a longer total time, the memory of the trial was less negative because it ended on a slightly less uncomfortable note.
The peak-end rule has been observed in many areas of life, from getting medical treatments to judging customer service. Businesses actively use this understanding. For example, IKEA places affordable treats like hot dogs and ice cream at the exit, aiming to end the shopping journey on a positive peak. Similarly, doctors often give children a small prize like a sticker after a check-up, and vacation planners might save a special activity for the final day.
Understanding this rule helps us to be more careful about designing experiences, whether planning a birthday party, a study schedule, or a community event. By thoughtfully considering where the natural or created peaks might be and how the experience ends, we can shape more positive and lasting memories for ourselves and others.
12. What does the second paragraph mainly talk about?
A. It argues that our memories are usually wrong.
B. It explains the peak-end rule and how it works.
C. It gives advice on how to remember things better.
D. It describes how people remember food experiences.
13. Why did most participants choose the longer trial in the experiment?
A. They were left with a more positive impression.
B. They forgot about the unpleasant experiences.
C. They preferred much higher water temperature.
D. They experienced less discomfort in the process.
14. What vacation plan best shows the peak-end rule?
A. Put the most exciting part at the beginning.
B. Arrange low-cost activities during the trip.
C. Have a surprise in store for the final day.
D. Avoid unpleasant activities in the schedule.
15. What is the author’s view on the peak-end rule?
A. It is a useful tool for business design.
B. It reduces memories of painful events.
C. It makes experiences more enjoyable.
D. It helps overcome negative situations.

In just over a month, Australia will start a social media ban (禁令). From December 10, people under 16 will only be able to see public content on platforms (平台) such as Facebook and TikTok, and they will not be allowed to have their own accounts. ____16____ But many parents worry about how teens will respond.
My research shows social and digital media use is already a major source of family conflict. Young people often pressure parents for devices or certain apps to keep in touch with their friends. So a government reason for the ban is to help parents manage this problem. ____17____
However, we still don’t know what will happen on December 10. Some experts argue young people may get around the ban, for example with apps that hide identity (身份). This calls for solutions. ____18____ Because children are different, parents should act based on family values and a child’s individuality.
Even so, if teens are used to social media and suddenly it’s gone, they may feel sad or angry, and parents will have to manage the results. Social media is not only mindless scrolling (滚动屏幕). ____19____ Therefore, they will need other ways to stay in touch, and parents should help them keep friendships. Parents should also know that this change can be difficult.
____20____ So parents should explain that less time on social media can reduce endless scrolling and cyberbullying (网络霸凌). Yet the ban does not make kids 100 percent “safe” online: they may move to other spaces, and the ban covers only some platforms. So parents should keep talking about what children see and do online, help them build the ability to judge online information. Also, they need to stay interested and willing to guide their children instead of controlling everything.
A. It can help young people build connections.
B. Some safety experts and parents welcome this.
C. But there is no one right answer for every family.
D. It may be easier for them to say, “This is the law.”
E. It is sometimes hard to see eye to eye with each other.
F. Actually, young people respond better to rules when given a clear reason.
G. This is eating away at the close relationship between parents and children.

But the next morning, I awoke to find ____27____ of spring all over my yard. In my absence, all sorts of things had ____28____ and bloomed. Three days later, I drove to Arizona to visit a friend and get yet another ____29____ of spring.

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。
Siya was excited to set off for her long-awaited holiday in Himachal. After working at a stretch for months, she couldn’t wait to escape to the peaceful mountains. Her parents would be joining her too. The weather, the mountains and the peace, everything would be theirs for a whole month!
She reached a day earlier to settle into the guest house before her parents arrived. As she sat by the window, sipping her coffee and watching the mountains, the caretaker of the guest house arrived, worried. “Ma’am, there’s been heavy snowfall in all parts of the state. So, the flights to Himachal have been canceled. It’s going to be difficult for anyone to get through for the next few days,” he said.
Siya’s heart sank. She quickly grabbed her phone to call her mother when a message arrived: “Dear kiddo, our flight got cancelled because of the snow. We’re stuck here for five more days. Stay safe, and we’ll be there as soon as we can.”
“Well, what now?” Siya muttered to herself, feeling disappointed. “I was looking forward to seeing them. What will I do alone for so long?!”
The next day, Siya spent her time at the guest house all by herself. The snow continued to fall heavily and the roads remained blocked. It was peaceful yet lonely. She spent her time reading books and watching snowflakes but felt downhearted about how her holiday had begun.
Then, on the second day, as she was lying on the couch of the living room, she heard a soft sound, like a tiny cry. She froze for a moment, wondering if her mind was playing tricks on her. She stood up and followed the sound to the porch (门廊).
注意:
