Around the world, some buildings break the rules. They surprise visitors with their strange shapes, bright colors, and creative designs. Here are four amazing examples.
Habitat 67, Montreal, Canada
This housing complex looks like a pile of colorful boxes stacked in a playful way. Built in 1967 for a world exhibition, it contains 158 private homes. Each home has its own rooftop garden, giving residents a private outdoor space in the city.
Forest Spiral, Darmstadt, Germany
Completed in 2000, this apartment building is hard to miss. Its surface is painted bright pink, and it has a shiny gold dome on top. The whole building twists upward like a spiral. What makes it truly special is the nature: over 1,000 trees grow on its roofs and balconies.
The Basket Building, Ohio, USA
This seven-story building looks exactly like a giant picnic basket. Built in 1997, it serves as the headquarters for a company that makes baskets. Even the two handles on top are real, each weighing 150 tons. The building is a wonderful example of novelty architecture.
Stone House, Portugal
Built in 1974, this house sits between four large rocks. The rocks themselves form most of the walls and roof, making the house feel like part of the mountain. Inside, there is a fireplace and a small swimming pool. It has become a popular tourist attraction over the years.

【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据Stone House, Portugal中“The rocks themselves form most of the walls and roof, making the house feel like part of the mountain.( 这些岩石本身构成了大部分的墙壁和屋顶,使得这座房子仿佛与山体融为一体。)”可知,石头屋利用天然岩石构成大部分墙体和屋顶,与自然融为一体。

While getting into Harvard Law School is never easy for anyone, Rehan, whose single-parent family was poor, made it by himself.
Rehan lived through years of family struggles, poverty, and unfairness. He saw his father do several jobs to raise his brother and him with little rest and food. Rehan admitted he was pained and “hungry for more”. Life taught him the value of hard work and self-improvement at a very young age.
Those hard times tested the family as a whole. The more stressed Rehan was, the worse his grades became. His father told him to learn to relax by exercising. With a different purpose, he channeled his energy into sports, which he hoped would become his way out of a poor life.
However, things didn’t go that way. His father was in bad physical condition and then Rehan had to take a job at Bates Trucking & Trash Removal. He was smart and worked harder than any others. His co-workers spoke highly of him and tried to persuade him to go back to school. One of the company owners even helped him enroll (注册) at Bowie State University. Rehan earned a 4. 0 grade point average and was able to transfer to the University of Maryland. But Rehan’s struggles still weren’t over. During his junior year at the University of Maryland, his father suffered a stroke (中风). Instead of dropping out of school, Rehan returned to Bates Trucking & Trash Removal in order to save his father. He got up each day at 3 am to work before class and doubled his learning plans. Finally, he graduated with good grades. Moreover, he began applying to Harvard Law School and made it.
With a sick father, a younger brother, a hard job, and a little time to learn, Rehan just had his own painful story to stand on. “Yes, Rehan has a quick mind, but what makes his achievement even more admirable is his courageous journey to this moment,” said his professor.
4. What does the author mean by saying “hungry for more” in Paragraph 2?
A. Rehan was pained due to the lack of food.
B. Rehan wanted to get along well with his father.
C. Sufferings made Rehan more determined to fight.
D. Unlucky experience taught Rehan to take things easy.
5. Why did Rehan go into sports?
A. He wished to change his life. B. He found his talent for sports.
C. He wanted to improve his mood. D. He tried to develop new hobbies.
6. What happened after Rehan went to work?
A. His father’s health gradually improved. B. He was refused by Bowie State University.
C. He could continue his study with others’ help. D. His co-workers found the job difficult for him.
7. Which of the following can best describe Rehan’s days in college?

C. Adventurous and funny. D. Challenging but rewarding.
【答案】4. C 5. A 6. C 7. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了主人公Rehan克服家庭困难,通过努力进入哈佛法学院的故事。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“Rehan lived through years of family struggles, poverty, and unfairness. He saw his father do several jobs to raise his brother and him with little rest and food. Rehan admitted he was pained and “hungry for more”. Life taught him the value of hard work and self-improvement at a very young age.( Rehan经历了多年的家庭斗争、贫困和不公平。他看到他的父亲做几份工作来抚养他和他的兄弟,几乎没有休息和食物。Rehan承认他很痛苦,“渴望得到更多”。在他很小的时候,生活就教会了他努力工作和自我完善的价值)”可知,Rehan经历了家庭的挣扎、贫困和不公,生活的苦难让他意识到努力工作和自我提升的价值,所以“hungry for more”意思是苦难让他更有决心去奋斗。故选C项。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“His father told him to learn to relax by exercising. With a different purpose, he channeled his energy into sports, which he hoped would become his way out of a poor life.( 他父亲告诉他要学会通过锻炼来放松。带着不同的目的,他把自己的精力投入到体育运动中,他希望这能成为他摆脱贫困生活的途径)”可知,Rehan从事体育运动是希望这能成为他摆脱贫困生活的途径,即他希望通过运动改变自己的人生。故选A项。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“His co-workers spoke highly of him and tried to persuade him to go back to school. One of the company owners even helped him enroll (注册) at Bowie State University. Rehan earned a 4. 0 grade point average and was able to transfer to the University of Maryland.( 他的同事对他评价很高,并劝他回学校去。公司的一位老板甚至帮助他进入了鲍伊州立大学。Rehan的平均成绩为4.0分,并且能够转学到马里兰大学)” 可知,Rehan工作后,他的同事高度评价他并劝他回学校,公司的一位老板甚至帮他在鲍伊州立大学注册,他后来取得了好成绩并转学到了马里兰大学,所以他在别人的帮助下能够继续他的学业。故选C项。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中“During his junior year at the University of Maryland, his father suffered a stroke (中风) . Instead of dropping out of school, Rehan returned to Bates Trucking & Trash Removal in order to save his father. He got up each day at 3 am to work before class and doubled his learning plans. Finally, he graduated with good grades. Moreover, he began applying to Harvard Law School and made it.( 他在马里兰大学读大三的时候,父亲中风了。为了救他的父亲,Rehan没有辍学,而是回到了Bates Trucking & Trash Removal公司。他每天凌晨3点起床,课前工作,把学习计划翻倍。最后,他以优异的成绩毕业了。此外,他开始申请哈佛法学院,并成功了)”可知,在大学里,Rehan面临着父亲中风的困境,他要工作还要学习,每天凌晨3点起床工作然后去上课,学习计划加倍,这说明他的大学生活充满挑战;但最后他以好成绩毕业,还被哈佛大学法学院录取,这又是很有回报的。故选D项。
C
For most teenagers today, social media is as much a part of daily life as school or homework. A 2025 survey of 12,000 teenagers aged 13-18 from 15 countries found that the average teen spends 3.2 hours on social media every day. While social media offers many benefits, it also brings risks that need to be recognized.
One of the biggest benefits of social media for teenagers is connection. For shy or lonely teens, in particular, social media can be a way to make friends with people who share their interests. Some teens even use social media for good—organizing fundraisers for charity or spreading awareness about important issues like climate change.
But there are also significant risks. Cyberbullying is a major problem: 45 percent of the teens surveyed said they had experienced it before. Overuse of social media can also lead to lack of sleep—38 percent of teens surveyed said they got less than 7 hours of sleep a night, which is below the recommended 8-10 hours for teens. Mental health issues like anxiety and low self-esteem (自尊) are also linked to social media use, as teens often compare their lives to the “perfect” images they see online.
Therefore, experts say that limitation is key. Parents can help their kids create a “social media schedule”. Schools should teach digital literacy, helping teens learn to spot fake news, protect their privacy, and deal with cyberbullying. Social media companies also have a responsibility: they can add features (特征) like time limits, hide harmful content, and make it easier for teens to report abuse.
Generally, social media itself isn’t good or bad—it’s how teenagers use it that matters. When used wisely, it can be a tool for learning, connecting, and creating. But when overused or without caution, it can harm teens’ health and well-being. By working together, parents, teachers, and companies can help teenagers get the most out of social media while avoiding its risks.
8. How does the author introduce the topic of the passage?
A. By citing a survey. B. By describing a fact.
C. By giving an example. D. By making a comparison.
9. Which of the following statements about social media is true?
A. Social media can help teens build friendships.
B. Cyberbullying affects half of the teenagers surveyed.
C. Social media can well develop students’ leadership skills.
D. Teens with low self-esteem often see perfect images online.
10. What is the main idea of paragraph 4?
A. The importance of setting rules for social media use.
B. Different ways to help teenagers use social media healthily.
C. How parents and schools can help protect teenagers online.
D. The responsibility that social media companies should have.
11. What is the author’s attitude towards social media?
A. Supportive. B. Critical. C. Objective. D. Doubtful.
【答案】8. A 9. A 10. B 11. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要讲的是社交媒体对青少年的影响,涵盖其益处、风险以及应对措施。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“A 2025 survey of 12,000 teenagers aged 13-18 from 15 countries found that the average teen spends 3.2 hours on social media every day. While social media offers many benefits, it also brings risks that need to be recognized.(一项针对来自 15 个国家的 12000 名 13 至 18 岁青少年的 2025 年调查发现,平均每个青少年每天在社交媒体上花费 3.2 小时的时间。虽然社交媒体带来了诸多好处,但也伴随着一些需要被认识到的风险。)”可知,作者是通过引用一项调查引入这篇文章的主题的,故选A。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“One of the biggest benefits of social media for teenagers is connection. For shy or lonely teens, in particular, social media can be a way to make friends with people who share their interests.(社交媒体对青少年最大的好处之一就是能促进交流。对于那些性格内向或感到孤独的青少年来说,社交媒体尤其是一种结交志同道合之人的途径。)”可知,社交媒体有助于青少年建立友谊。故选A。
【10题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第四段“Therefore, experts say that limitation is key. Parents can help their kids create a “social media schedule”. Schools should teach digital literacy, helping teens learn to spot fake news, protect their privacy, and deal with cyberbullying. Social media companies also have a responsibility: they can add features (特征) like time limits, hide harmful content, and make it easier for teens to report abuse.(因此,专家们表示,限制措施至关重要。家长可以协助孩子制定“社交媒体使用计划”。学校应当教授数字素养知识,帮助青少年学会辨别假新闻、保护个人隐私以及应对网络欺凌。社交媒体公司也负有责任:他们可以添加诸如时间限制、屏蔽有害内容以及让青少年更方便地举报欺凌行为等功能。)”可知,第四段主要讲的是帮助青少年健康使用社交媒体的不同方法。故选B。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“While social media offers many benefits, it also brings risks that need to be recognized.(虽然社交媒体带来了诸多好处,但也伴随着一些需要被认识到的风险。)”和最后一段“Generally, social media itself isn’t good or bad—it’s how teenagers use it that matters. When used wisely, it can be a tool for learning, connecting, and creating. But when overused or without caution, it can harm teens’ health and well-being.(一般来说,社交媒体本身并无好坏之分——重要的是青少年如何使用它。如果使用得当,它可以成为学习、交流和创造的工具。但如果过度使用或缺乏谨慎,它可能会损害青少年的健康和福祉。)”可知,作者对社交媒体的态度是客观的,既不盲目支持也不一味批评,而是全面分析。故选C。
D
When things don’t seem to go right, what’s your first thought? Do you just give up or do you make a promise to try a different approach? If you give up the effort simply because you’ve run into difficulty, you’re not only giving yourself a reason to call yourself a failure, you’re also depriving (剥夺) yourself of the opportunity to learn.
Nothing in life stays the same. Everything is always in a state of change. Your ability to recognize change and make peace with it, while also finding the flexibility to adapt to changing conditions, will determine how effectively you can continue making progress toward your life goals.
Indeed, when you discover and accept your ability to be flexible, all things are possible. That’s because the realization that there are other ways to go about dealing with what happens in life and to find ways around seemingly impossible difficulties makes you stronger, more self-confident and satisfied. It also greatly improves your perception (感知) of your abilities.
Consider that overcoming difficulties is quite an achievement. When you combine that with the confidence you feel in being able to analyze and put together a workable approach or solution, you wind up with a positive outcome overall. This satisfying result adds to your motivation to solve the next item on your list, to go for another goal that may be a bit more challenging.
This ability to overcome difficulties doesn’t come about automatically, yet it is a talent you can foster. Indeed, it may seem like a losing plan, especially if you don’t see results right away. Instead of losing hope, keep on going.
Have you ever disappointed yourself despite your efforts when you’ve encountered challenges in adapting to changing circumstances? Suppose you haven’t been able to figure out a way around them or couldn’t determine a workable approach. Is this a terrible thing? Does it mean you’re certain to forever be at the end of the line when it comes to accomplishments? It’s not like that. What it does indicate, however, is that you may yet keep some unforgiving thoughts about your own abilities. You may, for example, not trust your instincts (本能) or you might not believe you’re capable enough of taking a calculated risk.
12. We can infer from the first paragraph that ________.
A. running into difficulty is a valid reason to stop trying
B. it’s a rare thing for people to have a good opportunity
C. facing challenges offers learning and growth opportunities
D. it’s better to give up than persist when faced with difficulty
13. What can drive you to move forward successfully?
A. Engaging in self-criticism for every perceived failure.
B. Missing chances to gain insights from challenging situations.
C. Abandoning efforts when confronted with a difficult challenge.
D. Overcoming challenges with confidence and achieving positive results.
14. What might be the cause of failing to adapt to changing conditions?
A. You may have negative thoughts about your own abilities.
B. You may have a strong capability for taking calculated risks.
C. You are likely to give up on accomplishing anything significant.
D. You are guaranteed to be always at the forefront of achievements.
15. What message does the passage show?
A. The importance of avoiding difficulties.
B. The need to give up when facing challenges.
C. The benefits of staying in your comfort zone.
D. The significance of flexibility and adapting to change.
【答案】12. C 13. D 14. A 15. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文,论述了面对生活中的困境时,灵活应变、积极适应变化的重要性,指出这种能力能帮助人们实现目标、获得成长。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“If you give up the effort simply because you’ve run into difficulty, you’re not only giving yourself a reason to call yourself a failure, you’re also depriving yourself of the opportunity to learn.(如果你只是因为遇到了困难就放弃努力,你不仅会给自己一个称自己为失败者的理由,还会剥夺自己学习的机会)”可知,面对挑战能让人获得学习和成长的机会。故选C。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“Consider that overcoming difficulties is quite an achievement. When you combine that with the confidence you feel in being able to analyze and put together a workable approach or solution, you wind up with a positive outcome overall. This satisfying result adds to your motivation to solve the next item on your list, to go for another goal that may be a bit more challenging.(要明白,克服困难本身就是一项了不起的成就。当你将这种成就感与那份自信——相信自己能够分析并整合出可行的方案或解决之道——结合起来时,你最终便会得到一个总体的积极成果。这种令人满意的结果会进而提升你的动力,去解决清单上的下一个任务,去追求下一个可能更具挑战性的目标。)”可知,满怀信心克服挑战并取得积极成果能推动人成功前进。故选D。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第六段中“Have you ever disappointed yourself despite your efforts when you’ve encountered challenges in adapting to changing circumstances? Suppose you haven’t been able to figure out a way around them or couldn’t determine a workable approach. Is this a terrible thing? Does it mean you’re certain to forever be at the end of the line when it comes to accomplishments? It’s not like that. What it does indicate, however, is that you may yet keep some unforgiving thoughts about your own abilities.(你是否曾因在适应变化的环境时遇到挑战,即使付出了努力,却仍让自己感到失望?假设你未能找到应对之法,或无法确定可行的方案。这难道是件可怕的事吗?这是否意味着在成就方面,你注定永远只能居于末位?事实并非如此。然而,这确实表明,你可能对自己的一些能力仍持有某些苛刻的看法。)”可知,无法适应变化的原因可能是对自身能力有负面看法。故选A。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段中“Your ability to recognize change and make peace with it, while also finding the flexibility to adapt to changing conditions, will determine how effectively you can continue making progress toward your life goals.(你识别变化、接纳变化,并找到灵活性去适应变化环境的能力,将决定你能否有效地朝着人生目标持续迈进)”可知,文章的核心思想是灵活应变和适应变化的重要性。故选D。
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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
While traveling, it’s important to do it in a way that preserves these natural attractions for the next generation to enjoy as well. It’s always a good idea to travel in an environmentally friendly way. ____16____ The following are some tips for eco-friendly travel.
Look for a green label (标签)
The demand for eco-friendly travel has resulted in a sharp increase of environmentally friendly labels used by businesses, hotels, and products in the travel industry. ____17____ There are a few ways to do the research and find out which labels are really environmentally friendly. One choice is to look at the online guides that go through the details of several common labels.
Ask questions
____18____ Wise travelers can research, ask, or talk to travel companies. This will discover the problems behind the label. Research is absolutely important because there’s a lot of smoke and mirrors in this business. You wouldn’t just buy a car from an ad without understanding what it was or comparing it to others.
Fly less and fly direct
When you fly, make it count. Use long-distance flights when necessary. But change to more eco-friendly choices for more local destinations. ____19____ By traveling over land, one can cut carbon emissions (碳排放) by as much as 50 percent or 80 percent.
Stay local and buy local
Another way to cut down on flights is to get in touch with the local community. ____20____ And it can help travelers really understand how life works in that community. Staying local can cut down on travel emissions, and joining in the local community can also reduce a tourist’s cultural and environmental impact.
A. Some destinations have overnight trains.
B. However, not all these labels are really honest.
C. That lets one both tour nature and protect nature.
D. It is recommended that travelers stay in one location longer.

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章作者围绕“环保旅游”这一主题,给出了几个建议或方法,旨在帮助读者以更环保的方式旅行,以保护自然环境供后代人继续欣赏。
【16题详解】
根据上文内容“While traveling, it’s important to do it in a way that preserves these natural attractions for the next generation to enjoy as well. It’s always a good idea to travel in an environmentally friendly way.(在旅行时,重要的是要以一种保护这些自然景点的方式,让下一代也能享受。以环保的方式旅行总是一个好主意)”可知,上文提出环保的旅游方式。选项C“That lets one both tour nature and protect nature.(这样既可以游览自然又可以保护自然。)”指出,环保的旅游方式既可以游览自然又可以保护自然。故选C。
【17题详解】
根据空后的“There are a few ways to do the research and find out which labels are really environmentally friendly.(有几种方法可以做研究,找出哪些标签是真正环保的)”可推测,并不是所有的标签是真正环保的。选项B“However, not all these labels are really honest.(然而,并不是所有的标签都是诚实的。)”与下文内容相符,指出并不是所有的标签都是诚实的,所以我们需要做研究,从而找出真正环保的标签。故选B。
【18题详解】
根下文内容“Wise travelers can research, ask, or talk to travel companies. This will discover the problems behind the label. Research is absolutely important because there’s a lot of smoke and mirrors in this business.(明智的旅行者可以研究、询问或与旅游公司交谈。这将发现标签背后的问题。研究是绝对重要的,因为在这个行业里有很多烟雾和镜子)”可知,标签也未必可信。选项G“Although some companies have green labels, we don’t quite know for sure.(虽然有些公司有绿色标签,但我们不太确定。)”与下文内容相符,指出标签未必可信,所以我们需要研究、询问或与旅游公司交谈。故选G。
【19题详解】
根据下文“By traveling over land, one can cut carbon emissions (碳排放) by as much as 50 percent or 80 percent.(通过陆路旅行,可以减少50%或80%的碳排放)”可知,下文提到陆地旅行的碳排放和飞机旅行相比要少得多。选项F“Trains and buses produce much less carbon emissions than airplanes do.(火车和公共汽车产生的碳排放量比飞机少得多。)”与下文内容相符,指出火车和公共汽车产生的碳排放量比飞机少得多。故选F。
【20题详解】
根据下文内容“And it can help travelers really understand how life works in that community. Staying local can cut down on travel emissions, and joining in the local community can also reduce a tourist’s cultural and environmental impact. (它可以帮助旅行者真正了解那个社区的生活是如何运作的。住在当地可以减少旅行排放,加入当地社区也可以减少游客对文化和环境的影响)”可知,下文提到“这可以帮助旅行者真正了解那个社区的生活方式”,说明空处指的是待在一个地方,这样可以让旅行者深入了解这个社区。选项D“It is recommended that travelers stay in one location longer.(建议旅行者在一个地方停留更长时间。)”与下文内容一致,指的是当旅行者在一个地方停留很久后,就可以更多了解这个地方。故选D。

【44题详解】
考查形容词。句意:她接着说道:“我要感谢我们每一位出色的护士,正是她们在抗击英国国家医疗服务体系历史上这场最严重健康危机的前线奋战着。”空处引导定语从句,修饰nurses,从句中作主语,指人,用关系代词who或者that。

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。
Molly and Maye were good friends, like sisters, not only because they were always in the same class, but also they shared an interest—both of them were crazy about acting.
Before this summer holiday, their school was to hold the annual “School Play”, wanting a whole set of actors. That was their luck. “I’d like to play a role in the show.” Molly told herself.
After reading the notice, she learned that the play was named Rapunzel, who was a magic princess. Another leading role was an evil witch (女巫) stealing Rapunzel to keep herself young forever. Immediately, Molly and Maye were both attracted by the role of princess. Apart from them, there were about twenty other girls interested in this role as well. So an audition (试镜) would be needed to choose the most suitable one.
“Do you really want to play the princess, Maye?” they walked home, arm in arm.
“Yes, a little. And you?” Maye replied.
Long silence...
Several weeks before the audition, they practiced and practiced. With time speeding by, Molly’s confidence grew and she felt happy with her acting.
The morning of the audition arrived at last. Unbelievable! So many students crowded into the school hall to appreciate and witness the moment. Nervous though Molly was, she took a deep breath and recalled what she had practiced. During the audition, she tried her best to present her best self, and she was sure that she could make it.
After an anxiety-filled hour, the result of the audition came out. Molly didn’t even dare to check the result in person. Standing outside the crowd, she heard someone shouting, “Maye is the princess!” What was worse, Molly was shocked to learn that she was given the role of “witch”!
注意:

Molly rushed home and burst out crying when her mother came.

A few days later, the big day for the play arrived.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Molly rushed home and burst out crying when her mother came. After her mom knew about everything, she smiled, “Dear, why not try your best to make witch impressed? Maybe you are the best.” Molly jerked up her head as if awake from a dream. She kissed her mother in gratitude and got ready immediately. She carefully analyzed the witch’s personality traits, body language, consulted professionals, and looked up information about the relevant characters. As she learned more, her confidence grew gradually.
A few days later, the big day for the play arrived. The performance was a great success. Molly’s performance as the witch was as impressive as Maye’s as the princess, and the applause from the audience continued, which made Molly cry with joy. And her friend Maye also hugged her deeply and whispered, “If I had played a witch, I might not be as good as you.” Molly also understands a truth: no matter what role you play, as long as it is taken seriously, it will make people impressed.

While getting into Harvard Law School is never easy for anyone, Rehan, whose single-parent family was poor, made it by himself.
Rehan lived through years of family struggles, poverty, and unfairness. He saw his father do several jobs to raise his brother and him with little rest and food. Rehan admitted he was pained and “hungry for more”. Life taught him the value of hard work and self-improvement at a very young age.
Those hard times tested the family as a whole. The more stressed Rehan was, the worse his grades became. His father told him to learn to relax by exercising. With a different purpose, he channeled his energy into sports, which he hoped would become his way out of a poor life.
However, things didn’t go that way. His father was in bad physical condition and then Rehan had to take a job at Bates Trucking & Trash Removal. He was smart and worked harder than any others. His co-workers spoke highly of him and tried to persuade him to go back to school. One of the company owners even helped him enroll (注册) at Bowie State University. Rehan earned a 4. 0 grade point average and was able to transfer to the University of Maryland. But Rehan’s struggles still weren’t over. During his junior year at the University of Maryland, his father suffered a stroke (中风). Instead of dropping out of school, Rehan returned to Bates Trucking & Trash Removal in order to save his father. He got up each day at 3 am to work before class and doubled his learning plans. Finally, he graduated with good grades. Moreover, he began applying to Harvard Law School and made it.
With a sick father, a younger brother, a hard job, and a little time to learn, Rehan just had his own painful story to stand on. “Yes, Rehan has a quick mind, but what makes his achievement even more admirable is his courageous journey to this moment,” said his professor.
4. What does the author mean by saying “hungry for more” in Paragraph 2?
A. Rehan was pained due to the lack of food.
B. Rehan wanted to get along well with his father.
C. Sufferings made Rehan more determined to fight.
D. Unlucky experience taught Rehan to take things easy.
5. Why did Rehan go into sports?
A. He wished to change his life. B. He found his talent for sports.
C. He wanted to improve his mood. D. He tried to develop new hobbies.
6. What happened after Rehan went to work?
A. His father’s health gradually improved. B. He was refused by Bowie State University.
C. He could continue his study with others’ help. D. His co-workers found the job difficult for him.
7. Which of the following can best describe Rehan’s days in college?
A. Colourful but busy. B. Fresh and relaxing.
C. Adventurous and funny. D. Challenging but rewarding.
C
For most teenagers today, social media is as much a part of daily life as school or homework. A 2025 survey of 12,000 teenagers aged 13-18 from 15 countries found that the average teen spends 3.2 hours on social media every day. While social media offers many benefits, it also brings risks that need to be recognized.
One of the biggest benefits of social media for teenagers is connection. For shy or lonely teens, in particular, social media can be a way to make friends with people who share their interests. Some teens even use social media for good—organizing fundraisers for charity or spreading awareness about important issues like climate change.
But there are also significant risks. Cyberbullying is a major problem: 45 percent of the teens surveyed said they had experienced it before. Overuse of social media can also lead to lack of sleep—38 percent of teens surveyed said they got less than 7 hours of sleep a night, which is below the recommended 8-10 hours for teens. Mental health issues like anxiety and low self-esteem (自尊) are also linked to social media use, as teens often compare their lives to the “perfect” images they see online.
Therefore, experts say that limitation is key. Parents can help their kids create a “social media schedule”. Schools should teach digital literacy, helping teens learn to spot fake news, protect their privacy, and deal with cyberbullying. Social media companies also have a responsibility: they can add features (特征) like time limits, hide harmful content, and make it easier for teens to report abuse.
Generally, social media itself isn’t good or bad—it’s how teenagers use it that matters. When used wisely, it can be a tool for learning, connecting, and creating. But when overused or without caution, it can harm teens’ health and well-being. By working together, parents, teachers, and companies can help teenagers get the most out of social media while avoiding its risks.

When things don’t seem to go right, what’s your first thought? Do you just give up or do you make a promise to try a different approach? If you give up the effort simply because you’ve run into difficulty, you’re not only giving yourself a reason to call yourself a failure, you’re also depriving (剥夺) yourself of the opportunity to learn.
Nothing in life stays the same. Everything is always in a state of change. Your ability to recognize change and make peace with it, while also finding the flexibility to adapt to changing conditions, will determine how effectively you can continue making progress toward your life goals.
Indeed, when you discover and accept your ability to be flexible, all things are possible. That’s because the realization that there are other ways to go about dealing with what happens in life and to find ways around seemingly impossible difficulties makes you stronger, more self-confident and satisfied. It also greatly improves your perception (感知) of your abilities.
Consider that overcoming difficulties is quite an achievement. When you combine that with the confidence you feel in being able to analyze and put together a workable approach or solution, you wind up with a positive outcome overall. This satisfying result adds to your motivation to solve the next item on your list, to go for another goal that may be a bit more challenging.
This ability to overcome difficulties doesn’t come about automatically, yet it is a talent you can foster. Indeed, it may seem like a losing plan, especially if you don’t see results right away. Instead of losing hope, keep on going.
Have you ever disappointed yourself despite your efforts when you’ve encountered challenges in adapting to changing circumstances? Suppose you haven’t been able to figure out a way around them or couldn’t determine a workable approach. Is this a terrible thing? Does it mean you’re certain to forever be at the end of the line when it comes to accomplishments? It’s not like that. What it does indicate, however, is that you may yet keep some unforgiving thoughts about your own abilities. You may, for example, not trust your instincts (本能) or you might not believe you’re capable enough of taking a calculated risk.
12. We can infer from the first paragraph that ________.
A. running into difficulty is a valid reason to stop trying
B. it’s a rare thing for people to have a good opportunity
C. facing challenges offers learning and growth opportunities
D. it’s better to give up than persist when faced with difficulty
13. What can drive you to move forward successfully?
A. Engaging in self-criticism for every perceived failure.
B. Missing chances to gain insights from challenging situations.
C. Abandoning efforts when confronted with a difficult challenge.
D. Overcoming challenges with confidence and achieving positive results.
14. What might be the cause of failing to adapt to changing conditions?
A. You may have negative thoughts about your own abilities.
B. You may have a strong capability for taking calculated risks.
C. You are likely to give up on accomplishing anything significant.
D. You are guaranteed to be always at the forefront of achievements.
15. What message does the passage show?
A. The importance of avoiding difficulties.
B. The need to give up when facing challenges.
C. The benefits of staying in your comfort zone.
D. The significance of flexibility and adapting to change.

Molly and Maye were good friends, like sisters, not only because they were always in the same class, but also they shared an interest—both of them were crazy about acting.
Before this summer holiday, their school was to hold the annual “School Play”, wanting a whole set of actors. That was their luck. “I’d like to play a role in the show.” Molly told herself.
After reading the notice, she learned that the play was named Rapunzel, who was a magic princess. Another leading role was an evil witch (女巫) stealing Rapunzel to keep herself young forever. Immediately, Molly and Maye were both attracted by the role of princess. Apart from them, there were about twenty other girls interested in this role as well. So an audition (试镜) would be needed to choose the most suitable one.
“Do you really want to play the princess, Maye?” they walked home, arm in arm.
“Yes, a little. And you?” Maye replied.
Long silence...
Several weeks before the audition, they practiced and practiced. With time speeding by, Molly’s confidence grew and she felt happy with her acting.
The morning of the audition arrived at last. Unbelievable! So many students crowded into the school hall to appreciate and witness the moment. Nervous though Molly was, she took a deep breath and recalled what she had practiced. During the audition, she tried her best to present her best self, and she was sure that she could make it.
After an anxiety-filled hour, the result of the audition came out. Molly didn’t even dare to check the result in person. Standing outside the crowd, she heard someone shouting, “Maye is the princess!” What was worse, Molly was shocked to learn that she was given the role of “witch”!
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Molly rushed home and burst out crying when her mother came.

A few days later, the big day for the play arrived.
