D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述13岁学生张杰被困电梯后保持冷静，通过按按钮、传纸条等方式自救，最终获救并受到网友赞扬的故事。 【11题详解】 句意：虽然他感到有点害怕，但他仍然试图打开电梯门。 根据“he felt a little scared”与“he still tried”之间的转折逻辑，可知此处表示让步关系。根据语境，Although引导让步状语从句，符合句意。 【12题详解】 句意：但为了他自己的安全，他很快改变了主意。 根据“own safety”前需用形容词性物主代词，可知此处指“他的”安全。根据语境，his own safety为固定搭配，表示“某人自己的安全”。 【13题详解】 句意：然后他按了所有的按钮，希望能让电梯重新工作。 根据“all the buttons”可知动作是“按”按钮。根据语境，press buttons“按下按钮”为固定搭配。 【14题详解】 句意：张接着按下“停止”按钮以确保它不会掉下来。 根据“it would not fall”是一个从句，可知此处需填能接从句的短语。根据语境，make sure后可接宾语从句，表示“确保”某事发生。 【15题详解】 句意：没有手机，张试图大声喊叫来引起外面人的注意，但不幸的是，没有人回答。 根据“nobody answered”可知结果是不好的。根据语境，被困时无人回应是不幸的情况，unluckily“不幸地”符合语境。 【16题详解】 句意：他透过电梯门之间的缝隙传了一张纸条，希望有人会接电话并帮助他。 根据“the gap”可知是从内部通过缝隙到外部。根据语境，through表示“从空间内部穿过”。 【17题详解】 句意：所以他简单地开始做作业，耐心等待。 根据“waiting”及前文冷静做作业的行为，可知需要耐心。根据语境，with patience表示“带着耐心”。 【18题详解】 句意：在社交媒体上，许多人表扬了这个男孩。 根据“They should learn from him”可知人们持肯定态度。根据语境，praised符合网友赞扬的语境。 【19题详解】 句意：他们说如果他们处于他的境地，无法像他那样冷静。 根据“if they were”及语境，可知指换位思考。根据语境，be put in one’s shoes表示“处于某人的境地”，此处用被动形式were put in his shoes，表示“处在他的处境”，符合语境。 【20题详解】 句意：那么我们一定能成功解决这个问题。 根据“manage”可知后接不定式。根据语境，manage to do sth.为固定搭配，表示“设法做成某事”，因此此处需用不定式to solve。 第二部分 阅读理解(共三节，满分30分) 第一节(共5小题;每小题1.5分，满分7.5分) 根据短文内容，判断正误(正确“T”，错误“F”)。 Sudden cardiac(心脏的) death is a sudden death caused by heart problems. It is very dangerous because it happens fast and is hard to treat. Some bad habits make the heart work in a wrong way. Its beats can be very fast, which can lead to blood flow problems. People may feel bad and even die in a few minutes. In China, about 550,000 people die from it every year. Many of them are young. Bad living habits such as staying up late, eating much junk food and working too long are the main reasons. We can do many things to protect ourselves. First, we should have health checks every year. Second, we need good living habits. We should sleep early, exercise three times a week and eat less salty and sweet food. Third, if we have hypertension (高血压) or other illnesses, we must take medicine on time. Our body will give us warning signs before it gets very serious. We may have chest (胸口) pain, feel it hard to breathe, be too tired or feel dizzy (头晕的). When we have these problems, we must stop all activities at once, lie down slowly and call 120 for help right away. It’s important for us to learn about these signs. Many young people think they are healthy and don’t care about these small signs. But they are wrong. Sudden cardiac death is not far from us. We must care about our heart health, keep healthy habits and care for ourselves well 21. The writer believes that young people are at no risk of sudden cardiac death. 22. According to the passage, staying up late and eating junk food are the direct causes of sudden cardiac death. 23. The writer gives three pieces of advice about how to protect ourselves. 24. Chest pain and feeling hard to breathe belong to warning signs of sudden cardiac death. 25. The main purpose of this passage is to explain the medical treatments for sudden cardiac death. 【答案】21. F 22. T 23. T 24. T 25. F 【解析】 【21题详解】 第二段提到“Many of them are young.”（许多死者是年轻人），且第五段指出年轻人认为自己健康而不重视信号是错误的（But they are wrong），说明年轻人同样面临风险。 【22题详解】 第二段明确说明“Bad living habits such as staying up late, eating much junk food... are the main reasons”（熬夜、吃垃圾食品等不良生活习惯是主要原因），与题干表述一致。 【23题详解】 第三段在介绍如何保护自己时，使用了“First”、“Second”、“Third”三个连接词，分别提出了每年体检、养成好习惯和按时服药三条建议。 【24题详解】 第四段列举了身体发出的预警信号（warning signs），其中包括“chest pain”（胸口痛）和“feel hard to breathe”（感觉呼吸困难）。 【25题详解】 文章主要介绍了猝死的危害、成因、预防措施及预警信号，旨在呼吁人们关注心脏健康并养成好习惯，而非主要解释医疗治疗方法（medical treatments）。 第二节(共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分) 根据短文内容，从题中所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A All over the world, there are many wonders that still amaze us today.

It is made of huge stone blocks, and ancient Egyptians built it without modern machines. Their building skills still surprise people today. As a cultural treasure, the pyramids attract millions of visitors each year and show the wisdom of early human beings. ________ The Great Wall is a great treasure and pride of China.

It runs across northern China with a total length of more than 20,000 kilometers. It was first built to protect the country from enemies. Made of stone, brick and earth, it crosses mountains and valleys. Many dynasties worked on its construction.”，从这些描述可知，强调了长城是中国的伟大财富和骄傲，突出了中国人民的智慧，“Chinese Treasure: The Great Wall”（中国瑰宝：长城）这个标题最合适。 【28题详解】 文章中提到“Machu Picchu is a wonderful mystery in the Andes Mountains of Peru. It was an ancient Inca city high in the mountains. It was built more than 600 years ago and left untouched for hundreds of years until 1911.”，说明马丘比丘是一个古代印加城市，直到1911年才被发现。 【29题详解】 埃及金字塔展示了早期人类智慧，长城体现了中国人民智慧，马丘比丘体现了印加人的智慧和创造力，所以它们都展示了古代人的智慧和创造力。 【30题详解】 文章主要介绍了世界上著名的古代奇迹，属于文化与旅游范畴。B项符合题意。 B An old man went to live with his son, daughter-in-law (儿媳妇), and four-year-old grandson. The old man’s hands shook, his eyesight was poor, and he walked shakily. The family ate together at the table. But the elderly grandfather’s shaky hands and poor sight made eating difficult. Food fell off his spoon onto the floor, and when he tried to pick it up, the glass of milk spilled(洒) on the tablecloth. The son and his wife became irritated with the mess. So they set a small table in the corner. From then on, the grandfather ate alone while the rest of the family enjoyed their dinner together. Since he broke a dish, his food had been served in a wooden bowl. Sometimes, the family would see a tear in the old man’s eye as he sat alone. Yet, all he ever received were sharp scoldings (斥责). His four-year-old grandson watched everything in silence. One evening before dinner, the father noticed his little boy playing with some pieces of wood on the floor. “What are you making?” he asked sweetly. “Oh, I’m making bowls for you and Mama to eat from when I grow up,” the boy answered and went back to work. His words touched the parents deeply. No word was spoken, but both knew what must be done. That evening, the husband took his father’s hand and gently led him back to the family table. For the rest of his days, the old man ate every meal with the family. And for some reason, the son and his wife no longer seemed to care about the spilled milk or the food on the floor. What parents do speaks louder than what they say—and a child is always listening with their eyes. 31. What does the underlined word “irritated” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Moved. B. Worried. C. Angry. D. Surprised. 32. Why was a wooden bowl given to the old man? A. It was lighter to hold. B. It would not break easily. C. It was a gift from his grandson. D. It was the only bowl left in the house. 33. How did the old man feel when eating alone? A. He felt lonely and sad. B. He felt very comfortable. C. He didn’t care much about that. D. He was proud of being independent. 34. What’s the correct order of the following events? a. The old man dropped food and spilled milk. b. The old grandpa was invited back to the family table. c. The boy made wooden bowls for the couple. d. The old grandpa ate alone in a corner with a wooden bowl. A. a-b-c-d B. b-a-c-d C. a-d-c-b D. d-b-c-a 35. From the grandson’s action, we can infer that ________. A. home is where love is B. children’s words carry no harm C. children are a mirror of their parents D. an old man in the house is a treasure 【答案】31. C 32. B 33. A 34. C 35. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了一位年迈的爷爷因手脚不便、吃饭时弄脏桌面而被儿子和儿媳赶到角落独自用木碗吃饭，直到四岁的孙子为父母制作木碗时，父母才幡然醒悟，将爷爷请回餐桌的故事。文章揭示了言传身教的重要性。 【31题详解】 第二段中，爷爷吃饭时食物洒在地上、牛奶洒在桌布上，制造了混乱（mess）。儿子和儿媳对此感到“irritated”。结合上下文，他们对这些混乱感到不耐烦甚至生气。irritated意为“恼怒的、生气的”，与angry意思最接近。 【32题详解】 第三段“Since he broke a dish, his food had been served in a wooden bowl.”，明确说明爷爷之前打碎了一个盘子，因此家人给了他一个不会轻易摔破的木碗。 【33题详解】 第四段“Sometimes, the family would see a tear in the old man’s eye as he sat alone.”，老人独自坐着时眼里含着泪水，这说明他感到孤独和悲伤。 【34题详解】 根据文章发展顺序：首先老人弄洒食物“Food fell off his spoon...milk spilled”（a）；然后被安排在角落用木碗独自吃饭“set a small table in the corner...his food had been served in a wooden bowl.”（d）；接着孙子模仿父母为夫妇做木碗“I’m making bowls for you and Mama”（c）；最后父母醒悟，请老人回到餐桌“led him back to the family table”（b）。正确顺序为a-d-c-b。 【35题详解】 孙子看到父母如何对待爷爷（用木碗、让爷爷独自吃饭），于是自己也用木头为父母做碗，等他们老了用。这说明孩子是在模仿父母的行为，“孩子是父母的镜子”是最佳推断。 C Among the many amazing animals in the ocean, few are as strange and unusual as the octopus (章鱼). There are around 300 different kinds of octopuses, and they come in all sizes. The smallest is only about 2.5 centimeters long, but some can grow to more than five meters. There was even an octopus over nine meters long. The octopus has a very interesting body. All octopuses have eight arms. Their brain is not only in their head but also in their arms, which allows them to think about and do more than one thing at the same time. Octopuses can also fit into small spaces because they have no bones. And did you know they have three hearts? These hearts work with different parts of the body. Octopuses can also do many amazing things. Most of them can change their color and shape to look like plants or other sea animals, which helps them hide from danger. They can also produce ink and keep it inside a small bag in their body. When they let out the ink, it creates a dark cloud that makes it hard for other animals to see them. This helps the octopus escape quickly. What’s more, if an octopus loses an arm, it can grow a new one. Studying amazing animals like the octopus is important because we can learn a lot from them. They also remind us how wonderful nature is and why it is important to protect it. 36. What allows octopuses to do more than one thing at once? A. Their three hearts. B. Their boneless body. C. Their brain in both head and arms. D. Their ability to change color. 37. How does ink help an octopus run away from danger? A. It makes the octopus swim faster. B. It creates a dark cloud that stops their enemies from seeing them. C. It makes the octopus change shape. D. It kills the dangerous animals. 38. What can be inferred from the fact that octopuses have no bones? A. They can fit into small spaces. B. They are weak animals. C. They cannot move quickly. D. They live only in deep water. 39. Why is studying octopuses valuable? A. Because they are the largest sea animals. B. Because they help us understand nature and why to protect it. C. Because they are easy to find. D. Because they have no enemies. 40. What is the main purpose of the passage? A. To describe the size of octopuses. B. To explain how octopuses hunt for food. C. To introduce the special features and abilities of octopuses. D. To compare octopuses with other sea animals. 【答案】36. C 37. B 38. A 39. B 40. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了章鱼的种类、身体结构、特殊生存能力以及研究章鱼的重要意义。 【36题详解】 根据第二段中“Their brain is not only in their head but also in their arms, which allows them to think about and do more than one thing at the same time.”可知，章鱼的大脑不仅位于头部，也分布在触手中，这使得它们能够同时思考和处理多件事情。 【37题详解】 根据第三段中“When they let out the ink, it creates a dark cloud that makes it hard for other animals to see them. This helps the octopus escape quickly.”可知，章鱼喷出的墨水会形成深色云雾，使其他动物难以发现它们，从而帮助其逃脱危险。 【38题详解】 根据第二段中“Octopuses can also fit into small spaces because they have no bones.”可知，章鱼因为没有骨骼，身体柔软，可以挤进狭小的空间。 【39题详解】 根据最后一段中“Studying amazing animals like the octopus is important because we can learn a lot from them. They also remind us how wonderful nature is and why it is important to protect it.”可知，研究章鱼能提醒我们自然界的奇妙以及保护自然的重要性。 【40题详解】 通读全文可知，文章依次介绍了章鱼的种类大小、身体构造、特殊能力以及研究价值，旨在全面介绍章鱼的特征和能力。 第三节(共5小题;每小题1.5分，满分7.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后所给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。 Studies show that people now have more free time than ever before.

Do you want to get fit, learn something new or just relax? Don’t worry about what you should do. Just think about what will bring you fun. Get creative.

Build a model or write a blog. ____42____ This way you will feel more energetic instead. ____43____ Everyone has different interests, so don’t expect your friends to be into the same things as you. You can join a club and get to know people with the same interests as you. Treasure your time. ____44____ Otherwise, the line between your free time and everyday life will be unclear, and you won’t feel relaxed.

D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了如何明智地利用空闲时间以获得放松和精力充沛的几条建议。 【41题详解】 第一段提到人们虽然空闲时间变多，但玩手机导致无法完全放松，因此要获得充分放松和精力，需要明智利用空闲时间。选项G“it is important to use your free time wisely.”与上文构成因果关系，并引出后文“Here is how to do it”。 【42题详解】 第三段建议尝试成为创造者（如做模型或写博客），后文说这样会让你更有精力。选项C“You will use different parts of your brain.”解释了创造活动为何让人更精力充沛（使用大脑不同部位），逻辑衔接紧密。 【43题详解】 第四段内容为：每个人兴趣不同，不要指望朋友和你喜欢同样的东西，可以加入俱乐部认识志同道合的人。选项A“Meet like-minded people.”作为小标题准确概括本段主题。 【44题详解】 第五段提醒珍惜时间，后文说否则空闲时间与日常生活的界限会模糊，无法放松。选项E“Don’t let anything else take up your free time.”说明珍惜时间的方式（不让其他事情占用空闲时间），与后文构成逻辑条件关系。 【45题详解】 最后一段说完全放松后可以考虑想提升的东西（如变强壮或学技能），后文说“所以走出去享受有趣的活动吧”。选项D“There are many groups, clubs and classes you can join to start a new life.”为前文的“想提升技能”提供具体途径，并自然引出“走出去享受活动”的结论。 第三部分 写作(共三节，满分20分) 第一节(共5小题，每小题1分，满分5分) 根据句意，用括号中所给词的适当形式填空。 46.

(two) 【答案】 second 【解析】 【详解】句意：中国第二艘国产大型邮轮“爱达·花城号”将于2026年11月抵达。句中ship是单数，且根据句意和常识，中国已有一艘国产大型邮轮“爱达·魔都号”，此处介绍的是另一艘新邮轮“爱达·花城号”，指的是“第二艘”。提示词“two”应变为序数词“second”，表示顺序。 47. The idea ________ is not bad, but the way to carry it out needs to be improved. (it) 【答案】 itself 【解析】 【详解】句意：这个想法本身不错，但实施方式有待改进。此处用反身代词作同位语，用来加强语气，指代主语the idea，it的反身代词是itself。 48. These new ________ are much better than the old ones—they cut quickly. (knife) 【答案】 knives 【解析】 【详解】句意：这些新刀比旧的好得多——它们切得很快。“knife”“刀”，句中“These new…”和“are”表明主语为复数，需要用“knife”的复数形式。“knife”是以“-fe”结尾的名词，变复数时需将“-fe”改为“-ve”再加“-s”，即“knives”。 49. Jenny ________ her schoolbag on the sofa and ran to play in the yard. (throw) 【答案】 threw 【解析】 【详解】句意：珍妮把她的书包扔在沙发上，然后跑到院子里玩耍。句中ran为run的过去式，提示句子时态为一般过去时，throw的过去式为threw。 50. He made a few mistakes in his homework. He was seldom that ________. (care) 【答案】 careless 【解析】 【详解】句意：他在作业中犯了一些错误。他很少粗心。前半句中made为make的过去式，提示句子时态为一般过去时，be动词后接形容词作表语，careless意为“粗心的”，故填careless。 第二节(共5小题，每小题1分，满分5分) 将下列句子中汉语部分译成英语，注意使用适当的形式。 51. Every successful project starts with a ________. (明确的目标) 【答案】 clear goal 【解析】 【详解】句意：每一个成功的项目都始于一个明确的目标。根据中文提示“明确的目标”可知，“明确”应用形容词clear，“目标”应用名词goal，此处表示单数概念，故填clear goal。 52. Yesterday morning, I had to ________ a headache and low energy after staying up too late. (应对，处理) 【答案】 deal with 【解析】 【详解】句意：昨天早上，因为熬夜太晚，我不得不应对头痛和精力不足的问题。根据中文提示“应对，处理”可知，对应的英文短语是“deal with”，意为“应对；处理”。句中“had to”为情态动词，后接动词原形，所以用“deal with”。 53. There were ________ rides in the amusement park. We had much fun there. (大量；充足) 【答案】 plenty of 【解析】 【详解】句意：游乐园里有很多游乐设施。我们在那里玩得很开心。所给中文提示为“大量；充足”，英文对应短语为plenty of，修饰可数名词复数rides。 54. We go out for a nice dinner ________ to treat ourselves. (偶尔) 【答案】 once in a while 【解析】 【详解】句意：我们偶尔出去吃顿丰盛的晚餐犒劳自己。根据汉语提示“偶尔”，once in a while为副词性短语，在句中作状语，故填once in a while。 55. If the plan ________, we need to prepare one more solution. (出问题；搞错) 【答案】 goes wrong 【解析】 【详解】句意：如果这个计划出问题了，我们需要再准备一个解决方案。所给中文提示为“出问题；搞错”，英文对应动词短语为go wrong。本句为if引导的条件状语从句，主句用一般现在时，从句也用一般现在时表将来；主语the plan为第三人称单数，故go应变为第三人称单数形式goes。故填goes wrong。 第三节 书面表达(满分10分) 56. 生活中有晴空万里，亦有大雨滂沱。但当我们以积极的心去体味，去感受，晴来入画，雨来听诗，我们终会明白：所有的事物都有滋养我们成长的光明面。请以“Look on the Bright Side”为题写一篇英语短文，介绍一次你通过失败或者挫折，思悟成长的经历，并谈谈你的收获和感受。 要求： 1. 根据所给题目，写一篇短文，词数不少于80个； 2. 语言流畅、书写规范、卷面整洁； 3. 文中不得使用真实姓名、校名，否则以零分计； 4. 请将短文写在答题卡上，写在本试卷上无效。 __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】例文 Look on the Bright Side Last year, I failed a math exam.

It is very dangerous because it happens fast and is hard to treat. Some bad habits make the heart work in a wrong way. Its beats can be very fast, which can lead to blood flow problems. People may feel bad and even die in a few minutes. In China, about 550,000 people die from it every year. Many of them are young. Bad living habits such as staying up late, eating much junk food and working too long are the main reasons. We can do many things to protect ourselves. First, we should have health checks every year. Second, we need good living habits. We should sleep early, exercise three times a week and eat less salty and sweet food. Third, if we have hypertension (高血压) or other illnesses, we must take medicine on time. Our body will give us warning signs before it gets very serious. We may have chest (胸口) pain, feel it hard to breathe, be too tired or feel dizzy (头晕的). When we have these problems, we must stop all activities at once, lie down slowly and call 120 for help right away. It’s important for us to learn about these signs. Many young people think they are healthy and don’t care about these small signs. But they are wrong. Sudden cardiac death is not far from us. We must care about our heart health, keep healthy habits and care for ourselves well 21. The writer believes that young people are at no risk of sudden cardiac death. 22.

Sports & Festival B. Culture & Travel C. Science & Space D. Health & Education B An old man went to live with his son, daughter-in-law (儿媳妇), and four-year-old grandson. The old man’s hands shook, his eyesight was poor, and he walked shakily. The family ate together at the table. But the elderly grandfather’s shaky hands and poor sight made eating difficult. Food fell off his spoon onto the floor, and when he tried to pick it up, the glass of milk spilled(洒) on the tablecloth. The son and his wife became irritated with the mess. So they set a small table in the corner. From then on, the grandfather ate alone while the rest of the family enjoyed their dinner together. Since he broke a dish, his food had been served in a wooden bowl. Sometimes, the family would see a tear in the old man’s eye as he sat alone. Yet, all he ever received were sharp scoldings (斥责). His four-year-old grandson watched everything in silence. One evening before dinner, the father noticed his little boy playing with some pieces of wood on the floor. “What are you making?” he asked sweetly. “Oh, I’m making bowls for you and Mama to eat from when I grow up,” the boy answered and went back to work. His words touched the parents deeply. No word was spoken, but both knew what must be done. That evening, the husband took his father’s hand and gently led him back to the family table. For the rest of his days, the old man ate every meal with the family. And for some reason, the son and his wife no longer seemed to care about the spilled milk or the food on the floor. What parents do speaks louder than what they say—and a child is always listening with their eyes. 31. What does the underlined word “irritated” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Moved. B. Worried. C. Angry. D. Surprised. 32. Why was a wooden bowl given to the old man? A. It was lighter to hold. B. It would not break easily. C. It was a gift from his grandson. D. It was the only bowl left in the house. 33. How did the old man feel when eating alone? A. He felt lonely and sad. B. He felt very comfortable. C. He didn’t care much about that. D. He was proud of being independent. 34.

The boy made wooden bowls for the couple. d. The old grandpa ate alone in a corner with a wooden bowl. A. a-b-c-d B. b-a-c-d C. a-d-c-b D. d-b-c-a 35. From the grandson’s action, we can infer that ________. A. home is where love is B. children’s words carry no harm C. children are a mirror of their parents D. an old man in the house is a treasure C Among the many amazing animals in the ocean, few are as strange and unusual as the octopus (章鱼). There are around 300 different kinds of octopuses, and they come in all sizes. The smallest is only about 2.5 centimeters long, but some can grow to more than five meters. There was even an octopus over nine meters long. The octopus has a very interesting body. All octopuses have eight arms. Their brain is not only in their head but also in their arms, which allows them to think about and do more than one thing at the same time. Octopuses can also fit into small spaces because they have no bones. And did you know they have three hearts? These hearts work with different parts of the body. Octopuses can also do many amazing things. Most of them can change their color and shape to look like plants or other sea animals, which helps them hide from danger. They can also produce ink and keep it inside a small bag in their body. When they let out the ink, it creates a dark cloud that makes it hard for other animals to see them. This helps the octopus escape quickly. What’s more, if an octopus loses an arm, it can grow a new one. Studying amazing animals like the octopus is important because we can learn a lot from them. They also remind us how wonderful nature is and why it is important to protect it. 36. What allows octopuses to do more than one thing at once? A. Their three hearts. B. Their boneless body. C. Their brain in both head and arms. D. Their ability to change color. 37. How does ink help an octopus run away from danger? A. It makes the octopus swim faster. B. It creates a dark cloud that stops their enemies from seeing them. C. It makes the octopus change shape. D. It kills the dangerous animals. 38. What can be inferred from the fact that octopuses have no bones? A. They can fit into small spaces. B. They are weak animals. C. They cannot move quickly. D. They live only in deep water. 39. Why is studying octopuses valuable? A. Because they are the largest sea animals. B. Because they help us understand nature and why to protect it. C. Because they are easy to find. D. Because they have no enemies. 40. What is the main purpose of the passage? A. To describe the size of octopuses. B. To explain how octopuses hunt for food. C. To introduce the special features and abilities of octopuses. D. To compare octopuses with other sea animals. 第三节(共5小题;每小题1.5分，满分7.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后所给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。 Studies show that people now have more free time than ever before.
