We’ve all heard the stories of an actor’s struggles before a career breakthrough: living a hard life, working part time, being a couch potato before getting that major role. Shelby, the star of “A Dog’s Way Home,” has a hard-luck story that could top them all. Before her big break, she was living in a landfill(垃圾填埋场), looking through rubbish for her next meal.
Shelby’s big break came in April 2017, when animal-control officer Megan Buhler was driving in Cheatham County, Tennessee. Out on an unrelated call, Buhler found what she recalled was an obviously scared puppy appearing from the landfill. “I just said, ‘Oh, come here, baby,’ ” said Buhler. “She was so scared, but she came right up to me, and I was able to put her in my truck.” The pair headed to the county animal shelter, where the staff began calling the new resident Baby Girl.
Buhler and others didn’t know that 3,200 kilometers away, Hollywood was looking for a dog to play Bella in a film written by Cathryn Michon. The find-a-Bella job went to Teresa Ann Miller. Her job was to search shelters nationwide for a dog that could play Bella. One day, Miller found Baby Girl’s adoption photo. “Honestly, it was a really good picture, and she was flat-out smiling,” Miller said. Then she met Baby Girl, and tested her on personality and the ability to respond to simple commands. After the test, she adopted Baby Girl from the shelter, renamed her Shelby and took her to California for training. Miller and Shelby trained for just over three months before filming began. Then they were together each day on the set.
Most of the film’s reviews have praised Shelby’s performance. Variety made the comments “an amazing dog, perfect performance!”
Shelby has come a long way from the landfill. But Buhler said she saw Shelby recently and needed only a second to compare the movie star with the dog she found from piles of trash. “She’s exactly the same,” Buhler said.
4. Where did Buhler get the puppy?
A. In a landfill. B. In an animal shelter.
C. In a training house. D. In a film studio.
5. What finally helped Baby Girl get the big role in the film?
A. Her adoption picture. B. Her flat-out smiling.
C. Her personality and ability. D. Her terrible experiences.
6. What does Buhler probably mean by saying “She’s is exactly the same” in the last paragraph?
A. Shelby returned to where she was found.
B. It cost a lot to change Shelby’s fate.
C. Shelby’s inner qualities hasn’t changed.
D. She was really excited to see the dog again.
7. What is probably the best title of this passage?
A. The Success of “A Dog’s Way Home”.
B. From a Landfill Puppy to a Movie Star.
C. The Trainer and Her Star Dog.
D. Shelby’s Hard-luck and miserable Story.
C
Sleeping in on weekends to make up for lost sleep during the week may offer mental health benefits for teenagers and young adults, according to new research from the University of Oregon. The study found that people aged 16 to 24 who caught up on sleep over the weekend were significantly less likely to report symptoms of depression. Compared with those who did not recover sleep on weekends, this group showed a 41 percent lower risk of depressive symptoms.
The researchers analyzed data from 16- to 24-year-olds who participated in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2021-2023. Participants reported their typical bedtimes and wake-up times on weekdays and weekends. Using this information, the researchers calculated weekend catch up sleep by comparing the average amount of sleep per weekend day with the average amount per weekday. Participants also reported their emotional well-being and were classified as having symptoms of depression if they said they felt sad or depressed every day.
Biological sleep rhythms, known as circadian (生理节奏的) rhythms, naturally change during adolescence. These shifts make it harder for teens to fall asleep early, even when they are tired. “Instead of being a morning lark (云雀) , you’re going to become more of a night owl, ” explained Melynda Casement, a licensed psychologist. “And sleep beginning keeps progressively delaying in adolescence until age 18 to 20. After that, you start becoming more morning larkish again.”
For many teenagers, the natural sleep window falls around 11 p.m. to 8 a.m. This schedule often conflicts with early school start times. Because of this mismatch, many sleep experts and health care providers support efforts to delay school start times as a public health measure.
“It’s normal for teens to be night owls, so let them catch up on sleep on weekends if they can’t get enough sleep during the week because that’s likely to be somewhat protective,” Casement said.
8. What can we know about the impact of weekend sleep from paragraph 1?
A. It benefits future profession. B. It increases social interaction.
C. It contributes to mental health. D. It enhances academic performance.
9. How did the researchers obtain their study data?
A. Through self-report from subjects. B. Through tracking participants’ sleep.
C. By analyzing symptoms of depression. D. By calculating the average amount of sleep.
10. What is implied about early school start times for teenagers?
A. They match biological needs. B. They ignore teens’ sleep rhythms shift.
C. They are destroying teenagers’ dreams. D. They go against educational regulations.
11. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Depression Symptoms Rise in Young Adults B. Circadian Rhythm Shifts in Adolescent Years
C. School Timetables Conflict with Teen Sleep D. Weekend Sleep May Lower Teen Depression
D
We humans love to stare into our smart devices. We gaze for hours — about 10 hours and 39 minutes a day — at our computers, smartphones, tablets and televisions. Is all this staring bad for us? It might be mainly because as we stare at our devices we are exposing ourselves to blue light.
Blue light is a type of electromagnetic (电磁的) radiation with a very short wavelength that produces a high amount of energy. While it’s true that light can damage our eyes under certain circumstances, there’s no scientific evidence suggesting that blue light is harmful to our eyes. But many people still think it is, which is why blue-light-blocking glasses are so popular. So do the glasses work?
“Everyone is very concerned that blue light may be causing damage to the eye, but there’s no evidence that it may be causing serious damage,” Dr. Rahul Khurana, clinical spokesman for the American Academy of Ophthalmology, told Business Insider.
Blue light exposure is nothing new. In fact, the sun is the largest source of blue light. Moreover, blue light is also present in LED light. But if blue light isn’t harmful, then why are we constantly rubbing our eyes when we’re looking at our screens? The answer is eyestrain (眼疲劳): More than 60 percent of people experience eye problems associated with digital eyestrain. And blue light, it seems, isn’t the cause. Instead, our eyes are so strained because most of us blink less when we stare at our digital devices. So if eyestrain is the issue, blue-light-blocking glasses are probably of little use.
12. What do we know about blue light?
A. It consumes a great deal of energy. B. It may come from electronic devices.
C. It has the shortest wavelength. D. It is a kind of nuclear radiation.
13. What causes the popularity of blue-light-blocking glasses?
A. Scientific understanding of blue light. B. Widespread use of smart devices.
C. Belief in blue light’s harmful effect. D. Evidence of their benefits to eyes.
14. What can be inferred from Paragraph 4?
A. Rubbing eyes makes people strained. B. Blue light may connect with tired eyes.
C. Eye problems are not easy to deal with. D. Blue light exposure is hardly avoidable.
15. According to the text wearing blue-light-blocking glasses may be
A. harmful B. beneficial C. tiring D. useless

Just like the United States, Britain is divided into different areas. Britain is one of the most diverse nations in Europe with over 250 different languages being spoken in London alone. With such a various culture, adapting to it can be a challenge for anyone. ___16___
Forget the stereotypes (老套). Many of the long formed stereotypes simply have nothing to do with Britain today. Don’t think that everyone enjoys drinking tea or beer. Abandoning some old ideas of people and culture will allow you to be more open-minded and easily get into the culture.
___17___ Britain is made up of different regions that have their different traditions and languages. Understanding different cultures will help you avoid making mistakes.
Get used to small spaces. The US is a huge country where we are used to bigger cars, houses and spaces. Like all European nations, Britain does not have the luxury of space. Houses, apartments and cars are all smaller than you are used to. ___18___
___19___ Always apologize for knocking into someone, even if it was their fault. Respect people’s personal space and always wait in line. Bill Brysons’ book Notes from a Small Island is filled with many useful tips.
Accept the jokes. ___20___ Kidding, teasing, or “taking the mick” are all ways to describe making fun of someone but this isn’t necessarily a bad thing. Playing tricks on someone is a common way to show affection. As Britons usually put it, “You never make fun of someone you don’t like”.
A. Be polite.
B. Make friends with them.
C. Don’t play jokes on others.
D. Understand the differences.
E. Following these steps should be of great help to you.

Tanya Eby is a psychological counselor (心理咨询师) at school. She’d just finished talking with Sophie, a sixth grader who was feeling left out after a quarrel with her friends. As Sophie packed up her stuff and left, Eby sat back in her chair. She had known that there were likely many things students were struggling with. Eby thought even if she didn’t understand the reason for their pain or maybe it seemed not a big deal — like friendship crisis —there were sometimes deeper things happening that she didn’t understand. “Just simply being seen and being listened to was enough for them sometimes,” she thought to herself.
Something about that conversation stuck with her. Sophie’s story was different, but that feeling — Eby knew it. It took her right back to her own sixth-grade year, when her world fell apart too.
When Eby was in sixth grade, her friends made a decision that shocked and broke her heart. The girls that she hung out with for lunch and played with told her that she was no longer cool enough to hang out with them because she was late for one of their important gatherings. They would be ignoring her, and she was no longer part of the group. Eby’s world was falling apart.
However, the loss of her friends was only part of the story. And the rest of the story was that a few months prior to this happening, Eby’s older sister — her anchor (精神支柱) in life — needed to attend school in another city. So she woke up one morning and her older sister was gone. So, when the girls at school decided they weren’t going to be friends with her anymore, it was just the latest example of the people she cared about leaving without warning.
A few days later, she broke down in tears while in class when thinking of what had happened in those days.
注意:
(1) 续写词数应为150个左右;
(2) 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
It was at that moment that her teacher, Mrs Welch, stepped in.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Mrs Welch’s small act of caring had influenced the choice of the college major later in Eby’s life.

We’ve all heard the stories of an actor’s struggles before a career breakthrough: living a hard life, working part time, being a couch potato before getting that major role. Shelby, the star of “A Dog’s Way Home,” has a hard-luck story that could top them all. Before her big break, she was living in a landfill(垃圾填埋场), looking through rubbish for her next meal.
Shelby’s big break came in April 2017, when animal-control officer Megan Buhler was driving in Cheatham County, Tennessee. Out on an unrelated call, Buhler found what she recalled was an obviously scared puppy appearing from the landfill. “I just said, ‘Oh, come here, baby,’ ” said Buhler. “She was so scared, but she came right up to me, and I was able to put her in my truck.” The pair headed to the county animal shelter, where the staff began calling the new resident Baby Girl.
Buhler and others didn’t know that 3,200 kilometers away, Hollywood was looking for a dog to play Bella in a film written by Cathryn Michon. The find-a-Bella job went to Teresa Ann Miller. Her job was to search shelters nationwide for a dog that could play Bella. One day, Miller found Baby Girl’s adoption photo. “Honestly, it was a really good picture, and she was flat-out smiling,” Miller said. Then she met Baby Girl, and tested her on personality and the ability to respond to simple commands. After the test, she adopted Baby Girl from the shelter, renamed her Shelby and took her to California for training. Miller and Shelby trained for just over three months before filming began. Then they were together each day on the set.
Most of the film’s reviews have praised Shelby’s performance. Variety made the comments “an amazing dog, perfect performance!”
Shelby has come a long way from the landfill. But Buhler said she saw Shelby recently and needed only a second to compare the movie star with the dog she found from piles of trash. “She’s exactly the same,” Buhler said.
4. Where did Buhler get the puppy?
A. In a landfill. B. In an animal shelter.
C. In a training house. D. In a film studio.
5. What finally helped Baby Girl get the big role in the film?
A. Her adoption picture. B. Her flat-out smiling.
C. Her personality and ability. D. Her terrible experiences.
6. What does Buhler probably mean by saying “She’s is exactly the same” in the last paragraph?
A. Shelby returned to where she was found.
B. It cost a lot to change Shelby’s fate.
C. Shelby’s inner qualities hasn’t changed.
D. She was really excited to see the dog again.
7. What is probably the best title of this passage?
A. The Success of “A Dog’s Way Home”.
B. From a Landfill Puppy to a Movie Star.
C. The Trainer and Her Star Dog.
D. Shelby’s Hard-luck and miserable Story.
【答案】4. A 5. C 6. C 7. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文,文章主要讲述狗狗Shelby是如何从垃圾填埋场的流浪狗变成一个成功的演员的。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Out on an unrelated call, Buhler found what she recalled was an obviously scared puppy appearing from the landfill.(在一个不相关的电话中,Buhler发现她回忆的是一只明显受到惊吓的小狗从垃圾填埋场出现)”可知,Buhler是在垃圾填埋场遇见小狗的。故选A。

【7题详解】
主旨大意题。根据全文内容,结合第一段中“Shelby, the star of ‘A Dog’s Way Home,’ has a hard-luck story that could top them all. Before her big break, she was living in a landfill(垃圾填埋场), looking through rubbish for her next meal.(电影《狗狗回家的路》中的明星Shelby的不幸经历可能会超过所有人。在获得重大突破之前,她住在垃圾填埋场,在垃圾中寻找下一顿饭)”可知,文章主要讲述了一只名为Shelby的狗是如何从垃圾填埋场的流浪狗变成一个成功的演员的。由此可知,B项“从垃圾填埋场的小狗到电影明星”适合作本文最佳标题。故选B。

Sleeping in on weekends to make up for lost sleep during the week may offer mental health benefits for teenagers and young adults, according to new research from the University of Oregon. The study found that people aged 16 to 24 who caught up on sleep over the weekend were significantly less likely to report symptoms of depression. Compared with those who did not recover sleep on weekends, this group showed a 41 percent lower risk of depressive symptoms.
The researchers analyzed data from 16- to 24-year-olds who participated in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2021-2023. Participants reported their typical bedtimes and wake-up times on weekdays and weekends. Using this information, the researchers calculated weekend catch up sleep by comparing the average amount of sleep per weekend day with the average amount per weekday. Participants also reported their emotional well-being and were classified as having symptoms of depression if they said they felt sad or depressed every day.
Biological sleep rhythms, known as circadian (生理节奏的) rhythms, naturally change during adolescence. These shifts make it harder for teens to fall asleep early, even when they are tired. “Instead of being a morning lark (云雀) , you’re going to become more of a night owl, ” explained Melynda Casement, a licensed psychologist. “And sleep beginning keeps progressively delaying in adolescence until age 18 to 20. After that, you start becoming more morning larkish again.”
For many teenagers, the natural sleep window falls around 11 p.m. to 8 a.m. This schedule often conflicts with early school start times. Because of this mismatch, many sleep experts and health care providers support efforts to delay school start times as a public health measure.
“It’s normal for teens to be night owls, so let them catch up on sleep on weekends if they can’t get enough sleep during the week because that’s likely to be somewhat protective,” Casement said.
8. What can we know about the impact of weekend sleep from paragraph 1?
A. It benefits future profession. B. It increases social interaction.
C. It contributes to mental health. D. It enhances academic performance.
9. How did the researchers obtain their study data?
A. Through self-report from subjects. B. Through tracking participants’ sleep.
C. By analyzing symptoms of depression. D. By calculating the average amount of sleep.
10. What is implied about early school start times for teenagers?
A. They match biological needs. B. They ignore teens’ sleep rhythms shift.
C. They are destroying teenagers’ dreams. D. They go against educational regulations.
11. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Depression Symptoms Rise in Young Adults B. Circadian Rhythm Shifts in Adolescent Years
C. School Timetables Conflict with Teen Sleep D. Weekend Sleep May Lower Teen Depression
【答案】8. C 9. A 10. B 11. D
【解析】

We humans love to stare into our smart devices. We gaze for hours — about 10 hours and 39 minutes a day — at our computers, smartphones, tablets and televisions. Is all this staring bad for us? It might be mainly because as we stare at our devices we are exposing ourselves to blue light.
Blue light is a type of electromagnetic (电磁的) radiation with a very short wavelength that produces a high amount of energy. While it’s true that light can damage our eyes under certain circumstances, there’s no scientific evidence suggesting that blue light is harmful to our eyes. But many people still think it is, which is why blue-light-blocking glasses are so popular. So do the glasses work?
“Everyone is very concerned that blue light may be causing damage to the eye, but there’s no evidence that it may be causing serious damage,” Dr. Rahul Khurana, clinical spokesman for the American Academy of Ophthalmology, told Business Insider.
Blue light exposure is nothing new. In fact, the sun is the largest source of blue light. Moreover, blue light is also present in LED light. But if blue light isn’t harmful, then why are we constantly rubbing our eyes when we’re looking at our screens? The answer is eyestrain (眼疲劳): More than 60 percent of people experience eye problems associated with digital eyestrain. And blue light, it seems, isn’t the cause. Instead, our eyes are so strained because most of us blink less when we stare at our digital devices. So if eyestrain is the issue, blue-light-blocking glasses are probably of little use.
12. What do we know about blue light?
A. It consumes a great deal of energy. B. It may come from electronic devices.
C. It has the shortest wavelength. D. It is a kind of nuclear radiation.
13. What causes the popularity of blue-light-blocking glasses?
A. Scientific understanding of blue light. B. Widespread use of smart devices.
C. Belief in blue light’s harmful effect. D. Evidence of their benefits to eyes.
14. What can be inferred from Paragraph 4?
A. Rubbing eyes makes people strained. B. Blue light may connect with tired eyes.
C. Eye problems are not easy to deal with. D. Blue light exposure is hardly avoidable.
15. According to the text wearing blue-light-blocking glasses may be
A. harmful B. beneficial C. tiring D. useless
【答案】12. B 13. C 14. D 15. D
【解析】
【导语】主要说明了人们长时间看电子设备,普遍认为蓝光伤眼,使得防蓝光眼镜流行。实则无科学依据证明蓝光伤眼,用眼疲劳只因眨眼变少,这类眼镜基本没有作用。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“It might be mainly because as we stare at our devices we are exposing ourselves to blue light.(这可能主要是因为当我们盯着电子设备看的时候,我们正暴露在蓝光之中)”可知,蓝光可能来自电子设备。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“But many people still think it is, which is why blue-light-blocking glasses are so popular.(但许多人仍然这么认为,这就是为什么防蓝光眼镜如此受欢迎的原因)”可知,导致防蓝光眼镜受欢迎的原因是对蓝光有害影响的坚信。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“In fact, the sun is the largest source of blue light. Moreover, blue light is also present in LED light.(事实上,太阳是蓝光的最大来源。此外,蓝光也存在于LED灯光中)”可知,蓝光照射几乎无法避免。
【15题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“So if eyestrain is the issue, blue-light-blocking glasses are probably of little use.(所以,如果问题在于眼睛疲劳的话,那么防蓝光眼镜可能就没多大用处了)”可知,佩戴蓝光防护眼镜可能并无作用。

Just like the United States, Britain is divided into different areas. Britain is one of the most diverse nations in Europe with over 250 different languages being spoken in London alone. With such a various culture, adapting to it can be a challenge for anyone. ___16___
Forget the stereotypes (老套). Many of the long formed stereotypes simply have nothing to do with Britain today. Don’t think that everyone enjoys drinking tea or beer. Abandoning some old ideas of people and culture will allow you to be more open-minded and easily get into the culture.
___17___ Britain is made up of different regions that have their different traditions and languages. Understanding different cultures will help you avoid making mistakes.
Get used to small spaces. The US is a huge country where we are used to bigger cars, houses and spaces. Like all European nations, Britain does not have the luxury of space. Houses, apartments and cars are all smaller than you are used to. ___18___
___19___ Always apologize for knocking into someone, even if it was their fault. Respect people’s personal space and always wait in line. Bill Brysons’ book Notes from a Small Island is filled with many useful tips.
Accept the jokes. ___20___ Kidding, teasing, or “taking the mick” are all ways to describe making fun of someone but this isn’t necessarily a bad thing. Playing tricks on someone is a common way to show affection. As Britons usually put it, “You never make fun of someone you don’t like”.
A. Be polite.
B. Make friends with them.
C. Don’t play jokes on others.
D. Understand the differences.

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。
Tanya Eby is a psychological counselor (心理咨询师) at school. She’d just finished talking with Sophie, a sixth grader who was feeling left out after a quarrel with her friends. As Sophie packed up her stuff and left, Eby sat back in her chair. She had known that there were likely many things students were struggling with. Eby thought even if she didn’t understand the reason for their pain or maybe it seemed not a big deal — like friendship crisis —there were sometimes deeper things happening that she didn’t understand. “Just simply being seen and being listened to was enough for them sometimes,” she thought to herself.
Something about that conversation stuck with her. Sophie’s story was different, but that feeling — Eby knew it. It took her right back to her own sixth-grade year, when her world fell apart too.
When Eby was in sixth grade, her friends made a decision that shocked and broke her heart. The girls that she hung out with for lunch and played with told her that she was no longer cool enough to hang out with them because she was late for one of their important gatherings. They would be ignoring her, and she was no longer part of the group. Eby’s world was falling apart.
However, the loss of her friends was only part of the story. And the rest of the story was that a few months prior to this happening, Eby’s older sister — her anchor (精神支柱) in life — needed to attend school in another city. So she woke up one morning and her older sister was gone. So, when the girls at school decided they weren’t going to be friends with her anymore, it was just the latest example of the people she cared about leaving without warning.
A few days later, she broke down in tears while in class when thinking of what had happened in those days.

___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】参考范文:
It was at that moment that her teacher, Mrs Welch, stepped in. She pulled Eby close to her and hugged her, letting her cry. And when she did it, she just said, “Oh, honey. That s it.” Her gesture made Eby feel better soon. Mrs Welch pulled her into the teachers office to find out what was wrong. Eby told her about the girls. And then Eby told her the rest of the story. “It felt like everywhere I turned, people I loved disappeared. They stopped loving me and they didn’t tell me why and I had no control over it.” Eby cried as she told the whole story to Mrs Welch. Being seen and being listened to at that moment made Eby feel lighter.
Mrs Welch's small act of caring had influenced the choice of the college major later in Eby’s life. That single hug, those simple words, planted a seed in Eby. She realized then how powerful it was to truly see someone in their pain. She wanted to be that person for others, just as Mrs Welch was for her. So, when she went to college, she chose to study psychology and become a school counselor, just like Mrs Welch. She wanted to be that safe harbor for struggling children to offer the same comfort that had saved her. Now, sitting here as a school counselor, comforting and listening to Sophie, she understood her own story had come full circle. In helping Sophie, Eby was also honoring that moment of kindness that changed everything for her.
