A friend’s firm recommendation inspired me to book my first session. I chose Ora, a clinic I had visited during its grand opening in 2020, drawn to its environment and knowledgeable staff. Though the cost — $ 130 for an initial 65-minute session — was high, I viewed it as an investment in my well-being. Before the appointment, I researched how to prepare: eating a meal to stabilize blood sugar and avoiding medicine to ensure relaxation. Upon arriving at Ora, I was struck by the calming atmosphere. After a brief consultation with my acupuncturist, Sian James, who evaluated my lifestyle and health concerns, I changed into a towel and lay down. James checked my tongue, noting its red tip as a sign of stress, and explained how it guided her needle placement. She inserted 10-13 thin needles into my forehead, wrists, chest, knees, and feet. The slight pain was tolerable, and she explained that the selected points were targeted to stimulate my nervous system and release biochemicals to address stress. Once the needles were in place, I rested for 20-25 minutes in a dimly lit room with calming music. Initially tense, I eventually relaxed, drifting into a quiet state—deeply calm yet aware of my surroundings. When James removed the needles, I felt a profound sense of quiet that lasted the entire day. She advised avoiding tiring activities to maintain the effects. While the calmness faded by Monday morning, the experience was impactful. Acupuncture forced me to pause, breathe, and disconnect from life’s pressures. Though not a cure-all, acupuncture is a valuable tool for managing stress. As a person who struggled to unwind, I found it incredibly effective, and now, I plan to incorporate it into my routine. It’s a reminder to prioritize self-care. Otherwise, I couldn’t handle my busy work and daily life. 4. Why did the author decide to explore acupuncture? A. Because of a sports injury. B. Because of emotional anxiety. C. Because of financial investment. D. Because of a firm’s recommendation. 5. What can be inferred about the acupuncturist’s treatment approach? A. It relied on surroundings over needles. B. It used finger pressure instead of needles. C. It combined examination with assessment. D. It prioritized observation over communication. 6. How did the author feel after having acupuncture? A. Tired. B. Pressured. C. Cautious. D. Peaceful. 7. What does the author learn from her experience? A. Rome wasn’t built in a day. B. Busy hands make a happy heart. C. You can’t pour from an empty cup. D. A calm sea does not make a skilled sailor. 【答案】4. B 5. C 6. D 7. C 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述作者产后压力大，尝试针灸缓解焦虑，记录体验过程并认可针灸舒缓身心的作用。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“At 27, as a new mother, I had been wrestling with stress and worry, which led me to explore acupuncture.(27岁时，作为一名新手妈妈，我一直饱受压力和焦虑的困扰，这促使我尝试针灸疗法)”可知，作者选择尝试针灸是因为情绪焦虑、身心压力大。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“After a brief consultation with my acupuncturist, Sian James, who evaluated my lifestyle and health concerns, I changed into a towel and lay down. James checked my tongue, noting its red tip as a sign of stress, and explained how it guided her needle placement.(我和针灸师简短沟通后，她评估了我的生活习惯和健康问题。随后查看我的舌苔，舌尖发红判定为压力大，以此为依据安排针灸点位)”可知，针灸师结合问诊评估和身体检查，综合制定治疗方案。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“When James removed the needles, I felt a profound sense of quiet that lasted the entire day.(当针灸师取下银针后，我内心感到无比平静，这种舒适的状态持续了一整天)”可知，做完针灸后，作者内心十分平静、放松。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“It’s a reminder to prioritize self-care. Otherwise, I couldn’t handle my busy work and daily life.(这次经历提醒我要重视自我休养，不然无法兼顾繁忙工作与日常生活)”可知，作者明白要先照顾好自己，才有精力应对生活，对应谚语“人需自爱，方能爱人处事”。 C Canadian scientists have found that the more emotional or mental challenges a person faces in a day, the less determined they become to work out physically. However, the findings should not stop us from keeping fit. Experts believe that willpower (意志力) is like a muscle, and needs to be exercised to help one avoid the temptation (诱惑) spending a night on the couch instead. Kathleen Martin-Ginis, a professor of kinesiology — the science of movement — who led the study, says everyone has a limited amount of willpower, and that it will be reduced by stress. Miss Martin-Ginis, of Canada’s McMaster University, explains, “Cognitive (认知的) tasks, as well as tasks such as regulating (调整) one’s emotions, can reduce one’s capacity to force oneself to exercise.” Her team of scientists performed a so-called “Stroop” test on volunteers to reach their conclusions. The experiment involved showing participants words associated with colors but printed in different colors, for example, the word “blue” written in red ink. Participants were divided into two groups. One group was asked to name the color of the ink, instead to say the printed word, while the other wasn’t Martin-Ginis says, “After we used this cognitive task to use up their self-regulatory capacity, the participants didn’t exercise as hard as those who had not performed the task. The more people concentrated on the cognitive task, the more likely they were to skip exercise sessions (锻炼时段) over the next eight weeks. You only have so much willpower. However, there are ways to strengthen willpower. The study found the listening to music before going to the gym can help, as well as making a commitment to work out with friends. It also concluded that willpower can be stretched by constantly taking, or forcing oneself to study an extra hour each night. Martin-Ginis adds, “There are strategies people can use to help revitalize (使恢复活动) themselves after they’ve used up their self-regulation. Willpower is like a muscle: it needs to be used to stay strong. 8. According to the experts, human willpower ________. A. can be exercised through muscle movement B. can regulate itself to resist temptations C. is weakened by stressful cognitive or emotional tasks D. is reduced by lack of physical exercise 9. We learn from Paragraph 4 that the experiment ________. A. made use of the Stroop test B. asked one group of participants to name the words C. required researchers to write the word “blue” in red ink to make it easily recognizable D. showed that those who hadn’t performed the task were smarter than those who had 10. Which of the following is in agreement with Miss Martin-Ginis’ idea? A. Human’s willpower is limited to a certain level. B. The cognitive tasks could make people ignore exercise. C. Challenging tasks could make people ignore exercise. D. Exercise is an important way to strengthen one’s willpower. 11. What can we infer from the passage? A. Willpower can be challenged to become powerful. B. McMaster University is famous for its kinesiology. C. Effective ways to resist temptations have been found. D. the study has an impact on the science of movement. 【答案】8. C 9. A 10. A 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍一项研究发现：人一天中面临的情绪和脑力挑战越多，运动的决心就越弱，并阐释了意志力的特点、相关实验以及锻炼意志力的方法。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Kathleen Martin — Ginis, a professor of kinesiology-the science of movement — who led the study, says everyone has a limited amount of willpower, and that it will be reduced by stress. Miss Martin-Ginis, of Canada’s McMaster University, explains, “Cognitive (认知的) tasks, as well as tasks such as regulating (调整) one’s emotions, can reduce one’s capacity to force oneself to exercise.”(主持这项研究的运动机能学（即运动科学）教授凯瑟琳·马丁-吉尼斯表示，每个人的意志力都是有限的，而且它会因压力而减弱。来自加拿大麦克马斯特大学的马丁-吉尼斯女士解释说：“认知任务，以及诸如调节个人情绪之类的任务，都会降低一个人强迫自己去锻炼的能力。”)”可知，有压力的认知或情绪任务会削弱人的意志力。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Her team of scientists performed a so-called “Stroop” test on volunteers to reach their conclusions.(她的科研团队对志愿者开展了一项名为斯特鲁普的测试并由此得出结论)” 可知，该实验采用了斯特鲁普测试。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“everyone has a limited amount of willpower, and that it will be reduced by stress.(每个人的意志力都是有限的，而且它会因压力而减弱)”可知，人的意志力存在一定上限，这与马丁-吉尼斯女士的观点相符。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段中提到的通过不断挑战自我（如多学习一小时）来拉伸意志力可知，意志力可以通过挑战变得强大和最后一段中的“Willpower is like a muscle: it needs to be used to stay strong.(意志力就像肌肉：它需要被使用才能保持强壮。)” 可知，意志力可以通过不断磨砺变得强大。 D Should humans explore space? If you ask me, I’ll definitely give a positive answer. The exploitation (开发) of space has a direct impact on the lives of humans, as well as the state of our world. Satellites moving around the earth enable communication across the world. connecting people of different continents and broadcasting information worldwide. The Global Positioning System (GPS) can identify our location anywhere. Furthermore, weather satellites can forecast harmful weather conditions which allows humans to prepare for deadly natural disasters and save lives. Space programs can also indirectly contribute to the solution to poverty and world hunger. For example, large plots of land could be used far better if humans applied technologies. The most effective tool is the artificial earth satellite. It can screen areas of land within a very short time, indicating useful measures such as the condition of crops, soil rainfall, and droughts. It can then transmit this information to ground stations on the earth for better use. In recent years, space-based technologies have become an important factor to reach and expand global health objectives. Information provided by remote technologies can be applied to study the epidemiology (流行病学). This data provided by space technologies can monitor disease patterns, understand the environmental causes that spread it, make predictions about where it can spread in the future, and make plans to fight it efficiently. Furthermore, access to better education means better life prospects and opportunities for human beings. Rural communities have disadvantaged access to education and satellite communication technologies are trying to bridge this gap. With the advancement of technology, students can now access any information and connect with peers and teachers in different parts of the world via video conferences and the creation of virtual classrooms. Space exploration is something we can do for future generations. Mankind is using the resources provided on the planet, but these will run out one day. Overpopulation can be an existential threat for all mankind. With the advancement of space technology, it will be wise to use and explore the vast potential of other planets, such as the availability of mining resources on asteroids or other planets. For the exploration of the universe, perhaps the most advantageous of all is that it will unite us to work together for a common purpose, regardless of our differences. 12. What can space exploitation do according to Paragraph 2? A. Improve the traffic on the earth. B. Promote travel between countries. C. Help prevent deadly natural disasters. D. Help humans communicate and exchange information. 13. How can space programs help with poverty and world hunger? A. By benefiting crop production with artificial earth satellites. B. By transporting food worldwide more easily. C. By creating job opportunities for the poor. D. By protecting available land resources. 14. What does the author think of mining resources on other planets? A. Time-wasting B. Arguable. C. Necessary. D. Educational 15. What would be the best title for the text? A. Why Space Exploration Is Important? B. Why Humankind Should Keep Exploring? C. Why We Should Improve Space Technology? D. Why Humans Should Keep Developing Technologies? 【答案】12. D 13. A 14. C 15. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇议论文。主要讲的是人类是否应该探索太空为此话题而展开的讨论，论述了探索太空的重要性。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“The space exploration has a direct impact on the lives of humans, as well as the state of our world. Satellites moving around the earth enable communication across the world, connecting people of different continents and broadcasting information worldwide. The Global Positioning System(GPS) can identify our location anywhere. Furthermore, weather satellites can forecast harmful weather conditions, which allows humans to prepare for deadly natural disasters and save lives.”（太空探索直接影响着人类的生活，也影响着我们这个世界的现状。环绕地球运行的卫星使全世界的通信成为可能，将不同大陆的人们联系起来，向全世界广播信息。全球定位系统(GPS)可以在任何地方确定我们的位置。此外，气象卫星可以预测有害的天气状况，这使人类能够为致命的自然灾害做好准备，挽救生命。）可知，根据第二段，太空探索可以帮助人类交流和传播信息。故选D。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Space programs can also indirectly lead to the solution to poverty and world hunger. For example, large plots of land could be used far better if humans applied technologies. The most effective tool is the artificial earth satellite. It can screen areas of land within a very short time, indicating useful measures, such as the condition of crops, soil, rainfall, and droughts. It can then transmit this information to ground stations on the earth for better use.”（太空计划还可以间接地解决贫困和世界饥饿问题。例如，如果人类应用技术，大片土地可以得到更好地利用。最有效的工具是人造地球卫星。它可以在很短的时间内筛选土地面积，显示有用的措施，如作物状况、土壤、降雨和干旱。然后，它可以将这些信息传输到地球上的地面站，以便更好地使用。）可知，太空计划利用人造地球卫星造福农作物生产来帮助解决贫困和世界饥饿问题。故选A。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“With the advancement of space technology, it will be wise to use and explore the vast potential of other planets, such as the availability of mining resources on asteroids or other planets.”（随着太空技术的进步，利用和探索其他行星的巨大潜力将是明智的，例如小行星或其他行星上的采矿资源的可用性。）可推知，作者对在其他星球上开采资源这一行为认为是有必要的。故选C。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Should humans explore space? If you ask me, I’ll definitely give a positive answer.(人类应该探索太空吗？如果你问我，我一定会给你肯定的答复)”以及最后一段“For the exploration of the universe, perhaps the most advantageous of all is that it will unite us to work together for a common purpose, regardless of our differences.(对于宇宙的探索来说，也许最有利的是它将把我们团结起来，为了一个共同的目标而努力，不管我们有什么分歧)”结合文章主要讲的是人类是否应该探索太空为此话题而展开的讨论，论述了探索太空的重要性。可知，A选项“为什么太空探索很重要？”最符合文章标题。故选A。 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)· 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 As is well known, making art is good for your health.

E 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一些可以帮助你开始你的创造性艺术习惯的建议。 【16题详解】 根据上文“But you don’t have to be a full-time artist to get these benefits.(但你不必成为全职艺术家才能获得这些好处)”可知，此空应该介绍怎么做能获得艺术带来的好处，因此F项“你所需要做的就是在日常生活中抽出时间创作艺术”符合语境。故选F。 【17题详解】 根据上文“In fact, there are no differences in health outcomes between those who are identified as experienced in art and those who aren’t.(事实上，那些被认为有艺术经验的人和那些没有艺术经验的人在健康结果上没有区别)”可知，有无艺术经验对人的健康没有区别，因此G项“因此不管你是什么水平，你都能在创作艺术的时候感受到所有好的方面”符合语境。故选G。 【18题详解】 根据下文“Anything that sets off your creative mind is good for you. And don’t feel like you have to stick to one thing. Mix it up—do whatever you’re in the mood for.(任何激发你创造性思维的事情都对你有好处。不要觉得你必须坚持一件事。混合 —— 做任何你想做的事情。)”可知，不要给艺术设限，要对各种各样艺术形式保持开明的态度， A项“保持开放的心态”符合语境，故选A。 【19题详解】 根据上文“Let yourself get lost in the process and just play. It’s the physical act of making art that causes those feelings of stress relief and positive spirit, not what you make.(让自己沉浸在这个过程中，尽情地玩耍。是艺术创作的实际行为，而不是你所创作的东西，让你产生释放压力和积极精神的感觉)”可知，我们应关注创作的过程并尽情享受其中，因此C项“专注于创作，放弃期待”符合语境。故选C。 【20题详解】 根据上文“Doing just 10 minutes of art each day can do wonders.(每天做10分钟的艺术就能创造奇迹)”和下文“You could set up a corner table for your art supplies.(你可以在角落的桌子上放你的艺术用品)”可知，我们除了要为艺术腾出时间，还要为艺术腾出空间，因此E项“除了挤出时间，还要为艺术创造一个物理空间”符合语境。故选E。 第三部分 语言运用(共五节，满分60分) 第一节 完形填空(共15小题，每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 My son Daniel’s love for surfing began at the age of 13.

B At 27, as a new mother, I had been wrestling with stress and worry, which led me to explore acupuncture. A friend’s firm recommendation inspired me to book my first session. I chose Ora, a clinic I had visited during its grand opening in 2020, drawn to its environment and knowledgeable staff. Though the cost — $ 130 for an initial 65-minute session — was high, I viewed it as an investment in my well-being. Before the appointment, I researched how to prepare: eating a meal to stabilize blood sugar and avoiding medicine to ensure relaxation. Upon arriving at Ora, I was struck by the calming atmosphere. After a brief consultation with my acupuncturist, Sian James, who evaluated my lifestyle and health concerns, I changed into a towel and lay down. James checked my tongue, noting its red tip as a sign of stress, and explained how it guided her needle placement. She inserted 10-13 thin needles into my forehead, wrists, chest, knees, and feet. The slight pain was tolerable, and she explained that the selected points were targeted to stimulate my nervous system and release biochemicals to address stress. Once the needles were in place, I rested for 20-25 minutes in a dimly lit room with calming music. Initially tense, I eventually relaxed, drifting into a quiet state—deeply calm yet aware of my surroundings. When James removed the needles, I felt a profound sense of quiet that lasted the entire day. She advised avoiding tiring activities to maintain the effects.

C Canadian scientists have found that the more emotional or mental challenges a person faces in a day, the less determined they become to work out physically. However, the findings should not stop us from keeping fit. Experts believe that willpower (意志力) is like a muscle, and needs to be exercised to help one avoid the temptation (诱惑) spending a night on the couch instead. Kathleen Martin-Ginis, a professor of kinesiology — the science of movement — who led the study, says everyone has a limited amount of willpower, and that it will be reduced by stress. Miss Martin-Ginis, of Canada’s McMaster University, explains, “Cognitive (认知的) tasks, as well as tasks such as regulating (调整) one’s emotions, can reduce one’s capacity to force oneself to exercise.” Her team of scientists performed a so-called “Stroop” test on volunteers to reach their conclusions. The experiment involved showing participants words associated with colors but printed in different colors, for example, the word “blue” written in red ink. Participants were divided into two groups. One group was asked to name the color of the ink, instead to say the printed word, while the other wasn’t Martin-Ginis says, “After we used this cognitive task to use up their self-regulatory capacity, the participants didn’t exercise as hard as those who had not performed the task. The more people concentrated on the cognitive task, the more likely they were to skip exercise sessions (锻炼时段) over the next eight weeks. You only have so much willpower. However, there are ways to strengthen willpower. The study found the listening to music before going to the gym can help, as well as making a commitment to work out with friends. It also concluded that willpower can be stretched by constantly taking, or forcing oneself to study an extra hour each night. Martin-Ginis adds, “There are strategies people can use to help revitalize (使恢复活动) themselves after they’ve used up their self-regulation. Willpower is like a muscle: it needs to be used to stay strong. 8. According to the experts, human willpower ________. A. can be exercised through muscle movement B. can regulate itself to resist temptations C. is weakened by stressful cognitive or emotional tasks D. is reduced by lack of physical exercise 9. We learn from Paragraph 4 that the experiment ________. A. made use of the Stroop test B. asked one group of participants to name the words C. required researchers to write the word “blue” in red ink to make it easily recognizable D. showed that those who hadn’t performed the task were smarter than those who had 10. Which of the following is in agreement with Miss Martin-Ginis’ idea? A. Human’s willpower is limited to a certain level. B. The cognitive tasks could make people ignore exercise. C. Challenging tasks could make people ignore exercise. D. Exercise is an important way to strengthen one’s willpower. 11. What can we infer from the passage? A. Willpower can be challenged to become powerful. B. McMaster University is famous for its kinesiology. C. Effective ways to resist temptations have been found. D. the study has an impact on the science of movement. D Should humans explore space? If you ask me, I’ll definitely give a positive answer. The exploitation (开发) of space has a direct impact on the lives of humans, as well as the state of our world. Satellites moving around the earth enable communication across the world. connecting people of different continents and broadcasting information worldwide. The Global Positioning System (GPS) can identify our location anywhere. Furthermore, weather satellites can forecast harmful weather conditions which allows humans to prepare for deadly natural disasters and save lives. Space programs can also indirectly contribute to the solution to poverty and world hunger. For example, large plots of land could be used far better if humans applied technologies. The most effective tool is the artificial earth satellite. It can screen areas of land within a very short time, indicating useful measures such as the condition of crops, soil rainfall, and droughts. It can then transmit this information to ground stations on the earth for better use. In recent years, space-based technologies have become an important factor to reach and expand global health objectives. Information provided by remote technologies can be applied to study the epidemiology (流行病学). This data provided by space technologies can monitor disease patterns, understand the environmental causes that spread it, make predictions about where it can spread in the future, and make plans to fight it efficiently. Furthermore, access to better education means better life prospects and opportunities for human beings. Rural communities have disadvantaged access to education and satellite communication technologies are trying to bridge this gap. With the advancement of technology, students can now access any information and connect with peers and teachers in different parts of the world via video conferences and the creation of virtual classrooms. Space exploration is something we can do for future generations. Mankind is using the resources provided on the planet, but these will run out one day. Overpopulation can be an existential threat for all mankind. With the advancement of space technology, it will be wise to use and explore the vast potential of other planets, such as the availability of mining resources on asteroids or other planets. For the exploration of the universe, perhaps the most advantageous of all is that it will unite us to work together for a common purpose, regardless of our differences. 12. What can space exploitation do according to Paragraph 2? A. Improve the traffic on the earth. B. Promote travel between countries. C. Help prevent deadly natural disasters. D. Help humans communicate and exchange information. 13. How can space programs help with poverty and world hunger? A. By benefiting crop production with artificial earth satellites. B. By transporting food worldwide more easily. C. By creating job opportunities for the poor. D. By protecting available land resources. 14. What does the author think of mining resources on other planets? A. Time-wasting B. Arguable. C. Necessary. D. Educational 15. What would be the best title for the text? A. Why Space Exploration Is Important? B. Why Humankind Should Keep Exploring? C. Why We Should Improve Space Technology? D. Why Humans Should Keep Developing Technologies? 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)· 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 As is well known, making art is good for your health.
