Possible version Dear Jim, Knowing that you are interested in the “Cyber Security” themed activity our school held last week, I’m writing to share the details. The event consisted of several engaging parts. First, we attended a lecture given by a cybersecurity expert, who explained common online risks such as fake news and identity theft, with real-life cases. We also learned to set secure passwords and tell unsafe links apart. Additionally, there was a poster-making competition, through which we creatively spread safety tips among peers. This activity benefited me a lot. I have learnt that protecting personal information is as important as protecting ourselves. Most importantly, it has made me more aware of how to protect my personal data and stay safe in the digital world. I hope you find my experience interesting.

In studies on digital habits, participants 15 (find) to depend heavily on smartphones long before their personal memory shows signs of decline. This habit initiates a cycle, continuously weakening our natural cognitive functions. The critical question now is whether this shift is altering our capability 16 (process) information. C A skilled critical thinker with a closed mind will likely have many true 17 (belief), but will be blind to others. However, those 18 don’t screen incoming ideas will end up believing things not only false, but also 19 (danger). By thinking critically, you reject ideas; by being open-minded, you accept them. These two mindsets seem to be in conflict, but support each other nicely, which is 20 you should strive to transform yourself into an open-minded critical thinker if you wish to strengthen your mind. 第二部分：阅读理解（共两节， 共38分） 第一节（共14小题，每小题2分，共28分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 A Join us for TransForm, the interactive summer camp that helps you teens find your passion by participating in various activities and connecting with others.

It conveys the part of me that’s driven to spend hours obsessing over a conference talk or stay up all night for a research grant (拨款). They didn’t see the side of me that loves funny TV shows, cracks jokes, and laughs out loud. As a woman and mother, I felt I needed to prove I was serious about the job, in case others view me as too distracted by my personal life. My serious face worked. I landed a job at a great university. But I felt I had to split myself in two — the serious scientist in public, the goofball (搞笑的人) in private. Only later did I realize how much stronger my science, and my relationships, could have been if I’d let both sides show sooner. The first crack in my public persona came when I participated in a local live storytelling show. I described an embarrassing moment from a solo trip to Thailand. To my surprise, when people laughed, it didn’t feel bad or shameful. It felt like a warm hug. This reminded me that I might also experiment with being silly at work, too. So, when the semester began, I delivered a lecture dressed in a funny costume. I began kicking off lab meetings by asking my students what brings them joy or makes them laugh. Surprisingly, I found that injecting fun and humor into my work life didn’t make me less credible. Instead, students seemed to find me more approachable. But perhaps most importantly, humor has helped me be resilient. Last winter, my grant for an environmental project was abruptly terminated. After the shock and immediate grief wore off, I turned to my goofy side, writing satires and making joke T-shirts. That’s not to say I was living in denial. But making jokes and sharing laughter helped me stay present. In the end, I have come to realize that being myself at work is not a weakness, but rather a strength. So that’s why, even as I reimagine my research plans, I’ll be putting on a colorful outfit, calling up some friends, and cracking jokes. Now, more than ever, it’s time to laugh. 24．Why did the author choose to maintain her “resting science face” at first? A．To help her find a job at a great university. B．To hide her self-doubt in scientific research. C．To avoid being distracted by her personal life. D．To show her commitment and professionalism. 25．What inspired the author to show her humorous side at work? A．A trip to another country. B．A lecture at the start of a term. C．A local live show in public. D．A lab meeting with her students. 26．The incident of the author losing her grant shows that ________. A．jokes enabled her to escape from reality B．a playful attitude helped her pull through C．her funny behavior led to the funding cut D．humor was an instant cure for her sorrow 27．What can we learn from this passage? A．Humor is the shock absorber of life. B．Be who you are and the rest will follow. C．A wise man adapts to circumstances. D．Laugh and the world will laugh with you. C What do social climbers and gossipers (爱说闲话的人) have in common? My mother believes that both are morally suspect, a lesson we readily pass on to our children: avoid the cheater and the whisperer. But stories simplify reality. The most effective social climbers and gossipers possess a remarkable grasp of social structure to navigate (导航) their social worlds. This skill isn’t a moral failing; it’s a cognitive (认知的) skill. Recent work from my laboratory shows that cognitive maps — mental representations of the social world — shape our critical social skills. Social success depends not just on whom you know but also on how well you understand the invisible architecture of your social world. Mapping this is no small task, as social networks are large and dynamic. Yet building such cognitive maps offers great advantages. To better understand social navigation, my collaborator and I developed studies to investigate how people build cognitive maps. Across a year we tracked about 200 freshmen’s friendships and asked them to report their understanding of others’ connections. In one study, we discovered that those who rise to the top of the social structure aren’t the most charming or outgoing — they’re the best social mapmakers. The most influential people quickly build mental maps of their peers’ connection; those initially influential but without accurate mental maps of the network did not stay influential for long. In a second paper, we examined whether mapmaking aids gossiping — a behavior that, despite its poor reputation, can be an efficient way to quickly learn about the ins and outs of the community. To understand how humans pull off this remarkable task, we wondered whether mapmaking helps predict where information will spread. Mental maps become quite useful in this case, as they reveal two key network features: someone’s popularity and their distance from the gossip target. They help find a good friend — someone far enough from the target yet well-connected to spread information. How does the brain build these maps? In one of our recent studies, we discovered that the hippocampus and entorhinal cortex — a neural (神经的) center known for navigating physical space — also carries a map of connections among people. The more strongly these maps are embedded in the brain, the better we are at brokering community ties. If the brain needs to quickly figure out where gossip might spread, knowing where the popular people are positioned or the key relationships that bridge the otherwise disconnected communities allows us to chart the sequence of ties that can efficiently cross the network. Strategic wayfinding isn’t only for physical space. It is just as necessary to be able to effectively move through our social landscapes. Armed with a deliberately unclear map of their social community, skilled social navigators can do what no GPS can. They see the bridges before they’re built, avoid the storms of gossip, and map out a course to common ground. 28．As for his mother’s belief, the author is ________. A．disapproving B．supportive C．puzzled D．unconcerned 29．According to the passage, social cognitive maps can help ________. A．control the wide spread of gossip storms B．memorize others’ connections in social groups C．gain long-lasting social influence among peers D．choose well-connected people as gossip targets 30．What does the underlined word “brokering” in Paragraph 7 probably mean? A．Breaking. B．Managing. C．Experiencing. D．Recording. 31．Which would be the best title for the passage? A．How to Interpret Social Skills B．Navigating Our Social Worlds C．What Lies Behind People’s Social Behaviors D．Brain Structures Shaping Social Relationships D Knowledge is dead. Not in the sense that truth has disappeared or that learning no longer matters, but in the deeper, structural sense that knowledge, as a stable possession has lost its central role in human cognition. In a world where information is instant and increasingly available “on demand”, the old idea of “knowing” seems to feel like an antique of another era. Artificial intelligence has also changed the structure of cognition itself. Understanding now unfolds as an iterative (迭代的) process rather than a final state. We iterate facts and ideas that “collapse the information function” into a construct that, in some instances, has never existed. Insight emerges through cycles, not conclusions, as knowledge changes from fixed maps to dynamic webs. Alongside this shift comes the collapse of academic monovision. Human perception, statistical inference, interpretive meaning, moral judgment, and machine-generated pattern recognition now occupy the same cognitive field. No one perspective is sufficient on its own and depth arises from the perspective of multiple frames and learning to move among them. Education, however, is still largely organized in the context of that fixed map. Subjects are separated as if the world presented itself in disciplinary divisions. Mastery is assessed as if memorization were a reliable indicator of understanding. This is where the idea of the learning studio becomes more than an educational experiment. A studio isn’t defined by a single discipline, but by a question complex enough to demand many. Think about a studio centered on the biology of aging. Cellular mechanisms, statistical modeling, moral questions of longevity, and the social implications of demographic (人口的) change would gather in a single cognitive space. In these settings, students wouldn’t move from class to class so much as move through cognitive environments. Science, mathematics, humanities, and computation would no longer be neighboring divisions but interdependent ways of making sense of a shared problem. Technology and AI wouldn’t be present as tools of efficiency, but also as thinking partners that drive human achievement. Re-architecting education in this way also reframes its ultimate purpose — and this is the most critical point. The traditional endpoint has been certification or the preparation for the next stage. In a world where knowledge is dynamic and AI increasingly competent, that endpoint begins to look insufficient. What becomes more convincing is the idea of cognitive sovereignty. This is the capacity to remain the author of one’s own understanding in the presence of an overload of information and persuasive technologies. For teenagers, this is not an abstract philosophical goal; it’s developmental. The teenage years are when abstract reasoning and even identity are forming. An education that immerses students in integration and iteration can cultivate something more durable. Simply put, it builds a mind capable of handling uncertainty. 32．Which of the following is a core feature of the learning studio? A．The intersection of multiple domains. B．The use of AI as productivity assistants. C．The shift between physical environments. D．The focus on preparing students for the future. 33．What can be learned from the passage? A．Education should aim for autonomy of thought. B．Abstract reasoning is key to forming an identity. C．Information accessibility facilitates knowledge webs. D．Understanding is attained through cycles of repetition. 34．What does the author mainly do in this passage? A．Analyze current challenges. B．Illustrate opposing ideas. C．Question an old practice. D．Advocate a novel model. 第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，共10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的七个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项。 Something annoying about learning: the things that make learning feel productive are usually the things that slow it down. Cramming feels great. You sit down, you grind through the material, and by the end of the session, you feel like you’ve got it. And then two weeks later — gone. 35 The fix is one of the most well-supported findings in learning science: spaced repetition. Instead of bunching all your practice together in one session, you spread it out over time. In the 1880s, Hermann Ebbinghaus discovered what is now called the forgetting curve. Without any review, you lose most of what you learn within a day. 36 Your brain is doing exactly what it’s supposed to do — filtering. You encounter an enormous amount of information every day, and your brain has to decide what matters and what doesn’t. If you only see something once and never come back to it, your brain reasonably concludes it’s not that important. 37 When you encounter the same material again, your brain essentially says, “Oh, this keeps coming back. Must be important.” And it invests more resources in holding onto it. Each time you successfully recall something after a gap, you reset the forgetting curve. So how long should you wait between sessions? The optimal gap is roughly 10-20% of the time you want to remember the material. For instance, you can space your practice 3-5 days apart if you are studying for a test in a month. 38 You’re not trying to prevent forgetting; you’re trying to practice retrieving after some forgetting has occurred. As long as you get it right, the exact intervals are less critical. You don’t need to overcomplicate this. Start with something simple and build from there. 39 It’s that you’re willing to do the thing that feels harder in the moment because you understand it produces better results in the long run. That’s true for spacing. Honestly, it’s true for most of learning. A．Spacing delivers a fairly different signal. B．That sounds terrible, but this isn’t a design flaw. C．This isn’t a failure of effort but a failure of strategy. D．Despite this, the science of the brain tells a different story. E．The most important thing isn’t the specific strategy you use. F．Forgetting establishes necessary conditions for stronger re-learning. G．But here’s what matters more than any specific schedule: the principle. 第三部分：书面表达（共两节， 32分） 第一节 阅读表达（共4小题，第40、41小题各2分，第42小题3分，第43小题5分，共12分） 阅读下面短文，根据题目要求用英文回答问题。 When I began my Ph. D．in science four years ago, I started feeling like a fish out of water. Everyone around me seemed to be driven by their burning love of science. I felt out of place, uninspired, and incompetent. “Mary, don’t worry. It’s just self-doubt,” everyone told me. For years, I believed them, thinking that with more experience and confidence, things would change. But as time went on, the feelings only got stronger. The idea of quitting made me feel relieved. But I knew I had too much fight in me to leave my program. So I decided to get my degree and then pursue something else entirely. Partly in search of this “something else,” I began writing. At first, I mainly used it as a creative outlet. But eventually, it led me to explore science communication. In writing about newly published scientific papers, I felt curious, enlightened, and empowered. I began to entertain the idea that my problem wasn’t self-doubt — maybe I truly was a fish out of water, and all I needed to do was leave my life on land. I decided to tell my academic teachers about my new passion. However, they could not understand why I would want to pursue anything other than research. Truthfully, I did worry about what my life would look like if I left the world of scientific research. I expressed my concerns to a writing teacher. “Follow your heart, and the rest will follow,” she told me. I knew in my heart that I wanted to pursue science communication after graduation. And once I chose to trust that feeling, I found that I no longer struggled to breathe. I still felt out of place in academic research. But I now knew where I belonged and how to get there. 40．How did the author feel when she began Ph. D．in science? 41．What did the author use as a creative outlet? 42．Please decide which part is false in the following statement, then underline it and explain why. · After learning about the author’s concerns, the writing teacher encouraged her to quit scientific research immediately. 43．Use an example to show how you would apply the inspiration from the story in your life.
