Each year, I examine new consumer technology to identify innovations that could genuinely affect our daily life. Here are the trends to watch in 2026.
We’ll finally be talking to our computers
While voice assistants have failed to let people talk to computers, the rise of AI chatbots offers tech new hope. Companies are developing voice-based virtual friends — a pair of headphones solves the issue of public-use awkwardness. This makes interaction far more engaging.
We’re still searching for what’s next after the smartphone
Although smartphones are still very popular, AI is leading tech companies to develop the next alternative (替代品). Some companies are investing a lot in smart glasses, which are gradually accepted by the market. Meanwhile, a top company is making a book-like foldable phone that can be used as a small tablet.
AI is changing how we use the web
A big search engine often shows AI-made answers first, and chatbots have been added to many apps. Some webs also have their own AI helpers to answer questions. This trend of adding AI to the Internet will keep going.
Self-driving taxis are becoming widespread
Most people’s first worries have disappeared. They are running in cities such as Phoenix, Los Angeles and Austin, where they can now drive on freeways. Several companies are developing well in this area. If you haven’t tried one, put it on your to-do list for this year.
1. What products are being developed to replace smartphones?
A. AI chatbots. B. Smart glasses.
C. A big search engine. D. A pair of headphones.
2. How is AI influencing people’s use of the Internet?
A. It adds the number of search engines. B. It stops people from using common apps.
C. It makes websites load much more quickly. D. It provides smart answers and helpers online.
3. Who might be interested in the text?
A. Travel guides. B. Media editors. C. Tech trend followers. D. Life planners.

Yasmeen Lari looked out of the car window at Pakistan’s Siran Valley, feeling sad about its lost green beauty. A huge earthquake just one week before had killed up to 79,000 people. It had turned the valley to mud and flattened the buildings. The 65-year-old architect was there to lead the rebuilding of homes, but she had never done disaster-relief work before. She felt hopeful after her two-hour flight and this five-hour drive.
It was dark by the time her driver reached the rescue base. She stepped out of the car and was told which villages needed the most urgent help. It was then that she fully understood how huge her task would be.
As the first female architect in Pakistan, she was famous for designing modern glass and concrete towers in Karachi. Here, however, she would design simple homes that could stand up to earthquakes, using stone and wood. In a plain cottage near the camp, she spent the next four months working with volunteer architects and engineers. Together, they helped families who had lost their homes build new ones, even as the weather grew cold and snow began to fall.
“You can’t imagine the emptiness,” Lari remembers about those days in the mountains. Her team was often the first to arrive, and they were met with surprising kindness, given the hard situation. During one visit, villagers brought out their best chairs and a table saved from the earthquake. “They had lost everything,” she says. “But they put this damaged table in front of us and covered it with a beautiful cloth with a pattern. Then they served us the food they had from aid groups: biscuits, tea, and eggs.”
With each day, Lari was changing who she was — from a famous architect to a person who helps others. Her profession had been good to her, but she had become unhappy with building projects only for the rich. Doing disaster-relief work felt truly right to her. So she made it her new life’s purpose.
4. What did Lari go to Siran Valley for?
A. Helping with the rebuilding. B. Studying local housing styles.
C. Developing a travel project. D. Surveying earthquake damage.
5. What qualities enabled Lari’s team to succeed in the relief work?
A. Patience and artistic vision. B. Speed and modern technology.
C. Determination and adaptability. D. Fame and government support.
6. Why does the author mention the table in paragraph 4?
A. It survived the earthquake. B. It was the villagers’ furniture.
C. It highlights the earthquake’s damage. D. It shows the villagers’ kindness.
7. Why did Lari change her life goal?
A. She wanted to become famous. B. She lost interest in architecture.
C. She was forced by the earthquake. D. She found relief work more meaningful.
【答案】4. A 5. C 6. D 7. D
【解析】
【导语】文章主要讲述了巴基斯坦女建筑师Yasmeen Lari在地震后前往Siran Valley领导重建,并转变职业方向投身救灾工作的故事。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“The 65-year-old architect was there to lead the rebuilding of homes, but she had never done disaster-relief work before.(这位65岁的建筑师前往当地主持房屋重建工作,此前她从未参与过救灾工作。)”可知,Lari去Siran Valley是为了帮助重建。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“As the first female architect in Pakistan, she was famous for designing modern glass and concrete towers in Karachi. Here, however, she would design simple homes that could stand up to earthquakes, using stone and wood. In a plain cottage near the camp, she spent the next four months working with volunteer architects and engineers. Together, they helped families who had lost their homes build new ones, even as the weather grew cold and snow began to fall.(作为巴基斯坦首位女性建筑师,她因在卡拉奇设计现代玻璃混凝土高楼而闻名。但在此次救灾中,她要设计的是抗震的简易民居,采用石材和木材建造。在营地附近一间简陋的小屋里,她在接下来的四个月里与志愿建筑师和工程师们一同工作。即便天气转冷、大雪纷飞,他们依然帮助无家可归的家庭重建家园。)”可知,她的团队在恶劣的环境下坚持工作,同时调整建筑方案,用当地的石头和木材设计对抗地震的房屋,她的团队意志坚定且适应能力强。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“Her team was often the first to arrive, and they were met with surprising kindness, given the hard situation. During one visit, villagers brought out their best chairs and a table saved from the earthquake. ‘They had lost everything,’ she says. ‘But they put this damaged table in front of us and covered it with a beautiful cloth with a pattern. Then they served us the food they had from aid groups: biscuits, tea, and eggs.’(她的团队往往是最先抵达灾区的,尽管处境艰难,当地人却给予了他们格外暖心的善待。有一次走访时,村民们搬出了家中最好的椅子,还有一张从地震中留存下来的桌子。她说道:‘他们几乎失去了一切,却把这张破损的桌子摆在我们面前,铺上了一块花纹精美的桌布,把救援物资分到的饼干、茶水和鸡蛋,全都端来招待我们。’)”可知,当地村民在一无所有的困境中依然拿出最好的东西来招待他们,作者在第四段中提到这张桌子为了体现当地居民的善意。
【7题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“Her profession had been good to her, but she had become unhappy with building projects only for the rich. Doing disaster-relief work felt truly right to her. So she made it her new life’s purpose.(建筑行业曾让她收获成就,但她渐渐厌倦了只为富人设计建造项目。投身救灾工作,让她找到了真正的价值与归属感,于是她将这份事业定为自己毕生的新追求。)”可知,Lari认为救灾工作让她感受到了真正的价值,认为其更有意义,因此她改变了自己的职业方向。
C
Strong social ties are often linked to better health, and new research adds a brain benefit to that list. A study led by researchers from the University of Texas at Austin and University of Massachusetts Boston reports that regularly helping people can clearly slow the drop in cognitive (认知的) ability in middle-aged and older adults.
The research followed more than 30,000 US adults for 20 years. It found that those who often helped others — either through organized help or everyday acts — experienced a 15%-20% slower rate of age-related decline in cognitive ability. The most significant benefits were tied to spending about two to four hours per week helping others.
“Everyday acts of support can have a lasting effect on the mind,” Sae Hwang Han, an assistant professor of human development and family sciences at UT who led the study, noted, “The benefits weren’t just short-term but built up over time, and were seen for both organized and everyday help.”
The study is among the first to compare organized help with everyday help, which includes tasks like giving rides, looking after children, or helping with housework. “It was a pleasant surprise to find that everyday help offers benefits for the mind that are as good as organized help,” said Han, challenging the idea that it offers fewer benefits due to lack of public recognition.
The researchers looked at national data, taking into account factors like wealth, health, and education. Even after adjusting for these, the decline in cognitive ability tended to slow when people began and kept up helping behaviors. The benefits appeared to grow when helping became a steady, yearly habit.
Overall, helping others may support brain health by mitigating mental stress and strengthening social bonds that provide emotional support. As populations age, the findings highlight the importance of creating chances for people to give help, which may be especially useful for those already facing a drop in cognitive ability.
8. What do the findings suggest for the seniors?
A. They need more professional medical care. B. Helping others may benefit their brain health.
C. They should turn to others for more daily help. D. Strong social ties improve their quality of life.
9. What is Han’s attitude towards everyday help?
A. Favorable. B. Doubtful. C. Unconcerned. D. Critical.
10. Why did the researchers consider other factors?
A. To increase the sample size. B. To make the study more reliable.
C. To stress the importance of social ties. D. To record different levels of education.
11. What does the underlined word “mitigating” in the last paragraph probably mean?
A. Causing. B. Standing. C. Reducing. D. Experiencing.
【答案】8. B 9. A 10. B 11. C
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍的是一项研究发现:中老年人定期帮助他人,能显著减缓认知能力衰退,且日常帮助与有组织的帮助效果相当。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“A study led by researchers from the University of Texas at Austin and University of Massachusetts Boston reports that regularly helping people can clearly slow the drop in cognitive (认知的) ability in middle-aged and older adults. (得克萨斯大学奥斯汀分校和马萨诸塞大学波士顿分校的研究人员开展的一项研究表明,定期帮助他人可以显著减缓中老年人的认知能力下降。)”可知,研究结果表明帮助别人有助于老年人的大脑健康。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“‘It was a pleasant surprise to find that everyday help offers benefits for the mind that are as good as organized help,’ said Han, challenging the idea that it offers fewer benefits due to lack of public recognition. (韩说:‘发现日常帮助对大脑的益处与有组织的帮助相当,这是一个令人惊喜的发现。’这一观点对‘日常帮助因缺乏公众认可而益处更少’的看法提出了质疑。)”可推知,Han对于日常帮助持积极态度。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段“The researchers looked at national data, taking into account factors like wealth, health, and education. Even after adjusting for these, the decline in cognitive ability tended to slow when people began and kept up helping behaviors. (研究人员查阅了全国性数据,考虑了财富、健康和教育等因素。即使在对这些因素进行调整之后,当人们开始并持续保持助人行为时,认知能力的衰退速度也往往会放缓。)”可推知,研究人员考虑其他因素,这是控制变量、排除干扰因素的研究方法,目的是让研究结论更严谨、可靠。
【11题详解】
词句猜测题。根据最后一段“Overal, helping others may support brain health by mitigating mental stress and strengthening social bonds that provide emotional support. (帮助他人可以通过mitigating心理压力、加强能提供情感支持的社会联系来维护大脑健康。)”可知,帮助别人对大脑健康有好处。由此推测,它可以降低心理压力。因画线词的意思应该是“降低;减少”,与reduce同义。
D
Rosie, a three-year-old black Labrador dog, can do something no person in the world is able to do. She smells four containers of urine (尿液) samples and correctly chooses the one that belongs to a National Health Service patient with bladder (膀胱) cancer. To show it is not just by accident, Rosie’s trainers keep changing the order of the containers. Again and again, the dog finds the cancer sample correctly.
Scientists believe this ability could be the beginning of a major change in how we detect cancer. But it has been difficult for researchers to find a way to use this on a large scale in real-world medical settings. It would simply not be practical for the health service to let a group of dogs smell patients in busy hospital waiting rooms.
Now, however, technology has offered an answer. Dr Andreas Mershin, a researcher at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, has worked with the organization Medical Detection Dogs to create an electronic nose, or “e-nose”. This device was developed by training artificial intelligence to copy the way dogs react to the smelly chemicals found in urine. Once the machine learns this, it can also “smell” urine samples by detecting those same tiny chemicals in the air.
The e-nose is now being tested on more than 500 urine samples from patients at Milton Keynes University Hospital, to see if it is as accurate as the dogs. Dr Mershin hopes it can be approved as a medical tool in hospitals within two years. He also said the technology could one day even be built into smartphones.
The team of scientists and dog trainers works closely with local doctors, who are very hopeful about what the e-nose could achieve. They believe it could lead to tests that do not require any cutting or entering the body. Such tests would be especially important for illnesses where people often delay getting checked because they feel embarrassed, waiting until they experience troubling symptoms.
12. What is the limitation of using dogs for cancer detection?
A. They are not accurate enough. B. They are hard to use widely.
C. They are too expensive to train. D. They are too difficult to control.
13. What can we infer about the e-nose?
A. It may be used in phones. B. It has been applied in treatment.
C. It works better than trained dogs. D. It can only detect chemicals in urine.
14. What will be possibly discussed in the following paragraph?
A. Further device tests. B. Better ways to train Rosie.
C. Causes of bladder cancer. D. Methods of keeping healthy.
15. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. New Ways to Train Working Dogs. B. Dogs with Special Smelling Skills.
C. An AI Device for Cancer Detection. D. Traditional Tools for Bladder Cancer.
【答案】12. B 13. A 14. A 15. C
【解析】
【导语】文章介绍麻省理工学院研究员联合机构研发出电子鼻(e-nose),借助人工智能模仿狗狗识别尿液中特殊化学物质的嗅觉原理,目前该设备正在医院进行样本测试,有望两年内获批成为医疗工具,未来还可能内置到智能手机中。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“But it has been difficult for researchers to find a way to use this on a large scale in real-world medical settings(但研究人员一直很难找到一种方法,将这项技术大规模应用于现实医疗场景中。)”可知,用狗狗检测癌症的局限性是难以大规模应用于现实医疗场景。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“He also said the technology could one day even be built into smartphones.(他还表示,这项技术有朝一日甚至能被内置到智能手机中。)”可知,关于电子鼻我们能推断出未来可能应用在手机上。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“The e-nose is now being tested on more than 500 urine samples from patients at Milton Keynes University Hospital, to see if it is as accurate as the dogs. Dr Mershin hopes it can be approved as a medical tool in hospitals within two years.(这款电子鼻目前正在米尔顿凯恩斯大学医院,对500多份患者尿液样本进行测试,以此检验它是否能达到和嗅探犬一样的准确率。默欣博士希望它能在两年内获批,成为医院的正规医疗设备。)”可知,文章末尾讲电子鼻正在测试、等待获批医用,按照行文逻辑,下文最可能继续介绍设备的进一步测试与完善。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,并结合第三段“Dr Andreas Mershin, a researcher at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, has worked with the organization Medical Detection Dogs to create an electronic nose, or ‘e-nose’.(麻省理工学院的安德烈亚斯・默欣博士与医疗探测犬组织合作,研发出了一款电子鼻。)”可知,文章开篇介绍了拉布拉多犬罗西的癌症检测能力,随后说明用狗来检测癌症的方法难以大规模应用,重点讲述科学家受狗的启发研发出电子鼻,助力癌症无创检测的过程。由此可推知,C项“一款用于癌症检测的人工智能设备”最适合作文章标题。

Learn from History, Value Peace.
History shows us how easily peace can be broken. ____17____ By learning their stories, we come to understand that peace is not a gift but something worth protecting. When we know what was lost in the past, we will not take what we have today for granted.
Stand Against Bullying, Defend Peace on Campus.
Bullying is a small form of violence that breaks peace at its roots. When we see someone being targeted — whether through words, exclusion, or threats — we can choose to step in, not look away. ____18____ It reminds us courage over silence builds peace.
Speak with Care, Spread Peace Online.
____19____ But we can choose to be different. We do not have to share every hurtful post or join every fight. Before we type something, we can stop and think: Will this help or hurt? A few kind words online can make a real difference. We can be part of the calm, not part of the noise.
____20____
Peace grows where people feel connected. When we give our time to help at a food bank, clean up a park, or assist elderly neighbors, we become part of something larger than ourselves.

【解析】
【导语】文章主要介绍了如何在日常生活中通过小行动促进和平,包括从历史中汲取教训、反对校园欺凌、谨慎发言以及参与社区志愿服务。
【16题详解】
上文“Being devoted to peace is achievable through small efforts in our daily life.(通过日常生活中的小努力,致力于和平是可以实现的)”指出和平可以通过日常小行动实现,G选项“These efforts keep society and even the world warm and harmonious.(这些努力让社会乃至世界保持温暖与和谐)”承接上文,进一步说明这些小努力所产生的积极效果,句中“these efforts”与上文“small efforts in our daily life”构成指代关系,同时引出下文对四个具体方面(学习历史、反对欺凌、谨慎发言、志愿服务)的介绍。
【17题详解】
上文“History shows us how easily peace can be broken.(历史向我们展示了和平是多么容易被打破)”指出和平的脆弱性,D选项“It also shows us how many people fought and died to keep it.(历史也向我们展示了有多少人为维护和平而战斗和牺牲)”与上文构成并列关系,进一步指出历史的另一面;下文“By learning their stories, we come to understand that peace is not a gift but something worth protecting.(通过了解他们的故事,我们认识到和平不是天赐的礼物,而是值得保护的东西)”中的“their stories”指代D选项中“fought and died to keep it”的人们的故事,上下文语意连贯。
【18题详解】
上文“When we see someone being targeted — whether through words, exclusion, or threats — we can choose to step in, not look away.(当我们看到有人成为目标——无论是通过言语、排挤还是威胁——我们可以选择介入,而不是视而不见)”提出了应对欺凌的具体行动——介入而非旁观,F选项“A simple act of standing beside the victim can help stop harm.(仅仅是站在受害者身边这一简单举动就能帮助阻止伤害)”承接上文,进一步说明这种介入行动的具体形式及其效果——站在受害者身边能够制止伤害;下文“It reminds us courage over silence builds peace.(这提醒我们,勇气胜过沉默能够建立和平)”中的“It”指代F选项中的“standing beside the victim”这一行为,上下文语意连贯。
【19题详解】
下文“But we can choose to be different. We do not have to share every hurtful post or join every fight.(但我们可以选择不同。我们不必分享每一篇伤人的帖子或加入每一次争吵)”指出虽然网络环境存在负面现象,但我们可以选择不随波逐流。C选项“The online world is full of loud and angry voices.(网络世界充满了喧闹和愤怒的声音)”介绍了网络环境的现状,为下文的选择行为提供背景,与下文中的“But we can choose to be different”形成转折关系,引出在这样环境中如何谨慎发言、传播和平。
【20题详解】
设空处为段落小标题,需概括本段内容。下文“Peace grows where people feel connected. When we give our time to help at a food bank, clean up a park, or assist elderly neighbors, we become part of something larger than ourselves.(和平在有归属感的地方生长。当我们花时间去食物银行帮忙、清理公园或帮助年长的邻居时,我们成为超越自身的一部分)”强调通过参与社区志愿服务来促进和平。B选项“Volunteer Locally, Strengthen Community Peace.(在当地做志愿者,加强社区和平)”准确概括了本段主旨,点明志愿服务与社区和平之间的关联,与下文中的“help at a food bank, clean up a park, or assist elderly neighbors”相呼应,符合小标题格式。

第二节(满分25分)
47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Amy Carter, a twelve-year-old girl with a curious mind, faced a big problem. She wanted to win the City Youth Science Fair, but her most important tool — a digital thermometer (温度计) — was broken. Her father softly said, “If you want it, you need to earn the money yourself.” Therefore, Amy started “The Garden Research Project” — using science to study how different liquids (液体) affect plant growth.
As she had planned, Amy’s method was special. She spent days doing background research. She studied biology books, made charts for different watering schedules, and even designed a special stand to hold the test tubes straight. Her bedroom wall was covered in colorful notes and graphs, looking more like a real scientist’s lab than a kid’s bedroom.
On the first day of her experiment, the first challenge appeared. The special stand she built was not stable (稳定) enough. The test tubes kept falling over whenever she moved them. After three failed attempts to fix it with tape, she decided to rebuild the base. She quickly found some spare wood blocks and strong glue. Using her knowledge of balance, she built a wider, heavier base. Now, the stand was perfectly stable.
Then, the weather, which Amy had thought would be sunny, turned out to be very humid (潮湿的). High humidity affected how plants “breathe”, a factor she hadn’t considered in her original plan. Amy immediately recorded the humidity data in her notebook and adjusted her observation schedule. This careful action prevented what could have ruined her entire data set.
There were a few small problems, but her experiment went well for two weeks. The final challenge came on the day of data analysis. Her computer broke down, and she thought she had lost all her photos. She stood still, staring at the black screen, her carefully collected evidence seeming to disappear forever.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Amy was scared for a second, but then she thought like a scientist.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Weeks later, “The Garden Research Project” finally paid off.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
Amy was scared for a second, but then she thought like a scientist. She took a deep breath and calmly recalled the backup plan she’d prepared after reading about data safety in her science books. She remembered she had saved her files on a USB drive, so she quickly put it into her father’s laptop. With her detailed notes, she calculated the growth rates again by hand and checked them against the humidity records. By midnight, she’d reconstructed 90% of the data, even discovering a hidden pattern — plants watered with vinegar solution grew 15% faster in humid conditions. She smiled, realizing challenges could sometimes lead to unexpected discoveries.
Weeks later, “The Garden Research Project” finally paid off. At the science fair, Amy’s stand drew crowds. She confidently explained how she’d adapted her experiment midcourse, stressing the vinegar solution’s effect and her data-recovery process. Finally, she won the first prize. With the prize money, she bought a new digital thermometer, just as she had planned. Her father’s eyes met hers, shining with pride. This experience brought her a greater prize: a strong belief in her own ability to solve problems. This was the real treasure, one that would grow with time.

A
Each year, I examine new consumer technology to identify innovations that could genuinely affect our daily life. Here are the trends to watch in 2026.
We’ll finally be talking to our computers
While voice assistants have failed to let people talk to computers, the rise of AI chatbots offers tech new hope. Companies are developing voice-based virtual friends — a pair of headphones solves the issue of public-use awkwardness. This makes interaction far more engaging.
We’re still searching for what’s next after the smartphone
Although smartphones are still very popular, AI is leading tech companies to develop the next alternative (替代品). Some companies are investing a lot in smart glasses, which are gradually accepted by the market. Meanwhile, a top company is making a book-like foldable phone that can be used as a small tablet.
AI is changing how we use the web
A big search engine often shows AI-made answers first, and chatbots have been added to many apps. Some webs also have their own AI helpers to answer questions. This trend of adding AI to the Internet will keep going.
Self-driving taxis are becoming widespread
Most people’s first worries have disappeared. They are running in cities such as Phoenix, Los Angeles and Austin, where they can now drive on freeways. Several companies are developing well in this area. If you haven’t tried one, put it on your to-do list for this year.
1. What products are being developed to replace smartphones?
A. AI chatbots. B. Smart glasses.
C. A big search engine. D. A pair of headphones.
2. How is AI influencing people’s use of the Internet?
A. It adds the number of search engines. B. It stops people from using common apps.
C. It makes websites load much more quickly. D. It provides smart answers and helpers online.
3. Who might be interested in the text?
A. Travel guides. B. Media editors. C. Tech trend followers. D. Life planners.
B
Yasmeen Lari looked out of the car window at Pakistan’s Siran Valley, feeling sad about its lost green beauty. A huge earthquake just one week before had killed up to 79,000 people. It had turned the valley to mud and flattened the buildings. The 65-year-old architect was there to lead the rebuilding of homes, but she had never done disaster-relief work before. She felt hopeful after her two-hour flight and this five-hour drive.
It was dark by the time her driver reached the rescue base. She stepped out of the car and was told which villages needed the most urgent help. It was then that she fully understood how huge her task would be.
As the first female architect in Pakistan, she was famous for designing modern glass and concrete towers in Karachi. Here, however, she would design simple homes that could stand up to earthquakes, using stone and wood. In a plain cottage near the camp, she spent the next four months working with volunteer architects and engineers. Together, they helped families who had lost their homes build new ones, even as the weather grew cold and snow began to fall.
“You can’t imagine the emptiness,” Lari remembers about those days in the mountains. Her team was often the first to arrive, and they were met with surprising kindness, given the hard situation. During one visit, villagers brought out their best chairs and a table saved from the earthquake. “They had lost everything,” she says. “But they put this damaged table in front of us and covered it with a beautiful cloth with a pattern. Then they served us the food they had from aid groups: biscuits, tea, and eggs.”
With each day, Lari was changing who she was — from a famous architect to a person who helps others. Her profession had been good to her, but she had become unhappy with building projects only for the rich. Doing disaster-relief work felt truly right to her. So she made it her new life’s purpose.
4. What did Lari go to Siran Valley for?
A. Helping with the rebuilding. B. Studying local housing styles.
C. Developing a travel project. D. Surveying earthquake damage.
5. What qualities enabled Lari’s team to succeed in the relief work?
A. Patience and artistic vision. B. Speed and modern technology.
C. Determination and adaptability. D. Fame and government support.
6. Why does the author mention the table in paragraph 4?
A. It survived the earthquake. B. It was the villagers’ furniture.
C. It highlights the earthquake’s damage. D. It shows the villagers’ kindness.
7. Why did Lari change her life goal?
A. She wanted to become famous. B. She lost interest in architecture.
C. She was forced by the earthquake. D. She found relief work more meaningful.
C
Strong social ties are often linked to better health, and new research adds a brain benefit to that list. A study led by researchers from the University of Texas at Austin and University of Massachusetts Boston reports that regularly helping people can clearly slow the drop in cognitive (认知的) ability in middle-aged and older adults.
The research followed more than 30,000 US adults for 20 years. It found that those who often helped others — either through organized help or everyday acts — experienced a 15%-20% slower rate of age-related decline in cognitive ability. The most significant benefits were tied to spending about two to four hours per week helping others.
“Everyday acts of support can have a lasting effect on the mind,” Sae Hwang Han, an assistant professor of human development and family sciences at UT who led the study, noted, “The benefits weren’t just short-term but built up over time, and were seen for both organized and everyday help.”
The study is among the first to compare organized help with everyday help, which includes tasks like giving rides, looking after children, or helping with housework. “It was a pleasant surprise to find that everyday help offers benefits for the mind that are as good as organized help,” said Han, challenging the idea that it offers fewer benefits due to lack of public recognition.
The researchers looked at national data, taking into account factors like wealth, health, and education. Even after adjusting for these, the decline in cognitive ability tended to slow when people began and kept up helping behaviors. The benefits appeared to grow when helping became a steady, yearly habit.
Overall, helping others may support brain health by mitigating mental stress and strengthening social bonds that provide emotional support. As populations age, the findings highlight the importance of creating chances for people to give help, which may be especially useful for those already facing a drop in cognitive ability.
8. What do the findings suggest for the seniors?
A. They need more professional medical care. B. Helping others may benefit their brain health.
C. They should turn to others for more daily help. D. Strong social ties improve their quality of life.
9. What is Han’s attitude towards everyday help?
A. Favorable. B. Doubtful. C. Unconcerned. D. Critical.
10. Why did the researchers consider other factors?
A. To increase the sample size. B. To make the study more reliable.
C. To stress the importance of social ties. D. To record different levels of education.
11. What does the underlined word “mitigating” in the last paragraph probably mean?
A. Causing. B. Standing. C. Reducing. D. Experiencing.
D
Rosie, a three-year-old black Labrador dog, can do something no person in the world is able to do. She smells four containers of urine (尿液) samples and correctly chooses the one that belongs to a National Health Service patient with bladder (膀胱) cancer. To show it is not just by accident, Rosie’s trainers keep changing the order of the containers. Again and again, the dog finds the cancer sample correctly.
Scientists believe this ability could be the beginning of a major change in how we detect cancer. But it has been difficult for researchers to find a way to use this on a large scale in real-world medical settings. It would simply not be practical for the health service to let a group of dogs smell patients in busy hospital waiting rooms.
Now, however, technology has offered an answer. Dr Andreas Mershin, a researcher at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, has worked with the organization Medical Detection Dogs to create an electronic nose, or “e-nose”. This device was developed by training artificial intelligence to copy the way dogs react to the smelly chemicals found in urine. Once the machine learns this, it can also “smell” urine samples by detecting those same tiny chemicals in the air.
The e-nose is now being tested on more than 500 urine samples from patients at Milton Keynes University Hospital, to see if it is as accurate as the dogs. Dr Mershin hopes it can be approved as a medical tool in hospitals within two years. He also said the technology could one day even be built into smartphones.
The team of scientists and dog trainers works closely with local doctors, who are very hopeful about what the e-nose could achieve. They believe it could lead to tests that do not require any cutting or entering the body. Such tests would be especially important for illnesses where people often delay getting checked because they feel embarrassed, waiting until they experience troubling symptoms.
12. What is the limitation of using dogs for cancer detection?
A. They are not accurate enough. B. They are hard to use widely.
C. They are too expensive to train. D. They are too difficult to control.
13. What can we infer about the e-nose?
A. It may be used in phones. B. It has been applied in treatment.
C. It works better than trained dogs. D. It can only detect chemicals in urine.
14. What will be possibly discussed in the following paragraph?
A. Further device tests. B. Better ways to train Rosie.
C. Causes of bladder cancer. D. Methods of keeping healthy.
15. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. New Ways to Train Working Dogs. B. Dogs with Special Smelling Skills.
C. An AI Device for Cancer Detection. D. Traditional Tools for Bladder Cancer.

Our Part in Peace
World peace is essential for humanity’s survival and progress. It allows nations to cooperate, cultures to develop, and future generations to live in safety. Being devoted to peace is achievable through small efforts in our daily life. ____16____
Learn from History, Value Peace.
History shows us how easily peace can be broken. ____17____ By learning their stories, we come to understand that peace is not a gift but something worth protecting. When we know what was lost in the past, we will not take what we have today for granted.
Stand Against Bullying, Defend Peace on Campus.
Bullying is a small form of violence that breaks peace at its roots. When we see someone being targeted — whether through words, exclusion, or threats — we can choose to step in, not look away. ____18____ It reminds us courage over silence builds peace.
Speak with Care, Spread Peace Online.
____19____ But we can choose to be different. We do not have to share every hurtful post or join every fight. Before we type something, we can stop and think: Will this help or hurt? A few kind words online can make a real difference. We can be part of the calm, not part of the noise.
____20____
Peace grows where people feel connected. When we give our time to help at a food bank, clean up a park, or assist elderly neighbors, we become part of something larger than ourselves. These simple acts show that we care. A community where people look out for one another is a community where peace can take root.
A. Stay Calm, Begin Peace from Within.

C. The online world is full of loud and angry voices.
D. It also shows us how many people fought and died to keep it.

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。
Amy Carter, a twelve-year-old girl with a curious mind, faced a big problem. She wanted to win the City Youth Science Fair, but her most important tool — a digital thermometer (温度计) — was broken. Her father softly said, “If you want it, you need to earn the money yourself.” Therefore, Amy started “The Garden Research Project” — using science to study how different liquids (液体) affect plant growth.
As she had planned, Amy’s method was special. She spent days doing background research. She studied biology books, made charts for different watering schedules, and even designed a special stand to hold the test tubes straight. Her bedroom wall was covered in colorful notes and graphs, looking more like a real scientist’s lab than a kid’s bedroom.
On the first day of her experiment, the first challenge appeared. The special stand she built was not stable (稳定) enough. The test tubes kept falling over whenever she moved them. After three failed attempts to fix it with tape, she decided to rebuild the base. She quickly found some spare wood blocks and strong glue. Using her knowledge of balance, she built a wider, heavier base. Now, the stand was perfectly stable.
Then, the weather, which Amy had thought would be sunny, turned out to be very humid (潮湿的). High humidity affected how plants “breathe”, a factor she hadn’t considered in her original plan. Amy immediately recorded the humidity data in her notebook and adjusted her observation schedule. This careful action prevented what could have ruined her entire data set.
There were a few small problems, but her experiment went well for two weeks. The final challenge came on the day of data analysis. Her computer broke down, and she thought she had lost all her photos. She stood still, staring at the black screen, her carefully collected evidence seeming to disappear forever.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Amy was scared for a second, but then she thought like a scientist.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Weeks later, “The Garden Research Project” finally paid off.
