Happiful magazine offers well-being recommendations covering various aspects of life. Here are some highlights for those who seek a more satisfying life.
OUT AND ABOUT
There are 650 species of seaweed found around the UK. Each one plays a vital role in our coastal ecosystem and helps in the fight against climate change. Join the Marine Conservation Society on their Seaweed Search to help scientists monitor how our ecosystem is changing. Participation requires a small registration fee of £5 to cover research costs. (Find out more at mcsuk.org)
ACT OF KINDNESS
You don’t have to make big actions to brighten someone’s day. It can be as simple as letting someone behind you in the queue go ahead of you. When they only have a couple of items compared to your weekly groceries, showing consideration in this way can leave someone feeling uplifted and wanting to create a chain reaction of goodwill.

Mohan Gupta, who was diagnosed (诊断) with a severe psychological disorder, got a special social treatment through a course called Comedy on Referral — a 10-week programme teaching students how to write and perform a 10-minute comedy set about their lives.
Angie Belcher, the Bristol-based comedian who created and teaches the course, describes her goal as helping her students “find their banana”, whether that’s going through a divorce, struggling with parenthood, or recovering from abuse. “Your comedy doesn’t come from the nice bits about our lives. It comes from the bits that are difficult,” she says.
Belcher first discovered the healing power of laughter when her mother was diagnosed with dementia. Back then, she and her brother tried to find the lighter side of the tough situation, which gave them the strength to keep going.
Her courses now help her students do likewise, by facilitating games and exercises that can tap into their deepest vulnerabilities (脆弱) and insecurities. “I am not trying to make them into stand-up comedians, but to get them to face their thing — maybe it’s that they’re quiet or they’re nervous — and play with that,” she explains. “The fact that, in 10 weeks, you’ve got to go on stage and try to make people laugh — unites everyone together in their fear.”
The course never labels itself as therapy (疗法) — just a fun stand-up comedy lesson. This light form helps people lower their guard, look back at hardships with a relaxed mind, and gradually ease anxiety and fear. “If I’d asked these men, ‘Do you want to come to a therapeutic men’s school?’ they wouldn’t do that, but when we said, ‘Come and learn stand-up comedy,’ that worked,” Belcher says.
Belcher’s comedy course has won wide support from National Health Service and local charities. As Gupta put it, the course’s only problem is its popularity — he had to wait two years to get a place.
4. What does the underlined word “banana” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Joy in family life. B. Inspiration from others.
C. Comedic source of pain. D. Potential to be comedians.
5. How does Belcher’s course help people?
A. By helping them improve their personalities.
B. By guiding them to face their inner trouble.
C. By involving them into physical exercises.
D. By training them into stand-up comedians.
6. According to Belcher, why does her course work?
A. It offers students a stage. B. It provides professional therapy.
C. It adopts a light approach. D. It promotes teamwork among students.
7. What does Belcher’s course show?
A. Unity is strength. B. Laughter is the best medicine.
C. No pains, no gains. D. Hardship makes a better comedian.
【答案】4. C 5. B 6. C 7. B
【解析】
【导语】文章阐述了喜剧课程以轻松形式帮助心理困扰者直面伤痛,借助欢笑舒缓负面情绪,印证欢笑具备治愈身心的力量。
【4题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段“Angie Belcher, the Bristol-based comedian who created and teaches the course, describes her goal as helping her students ‘find their banana’, whether that’s going through a divorce, struggling with parenthood, or recovering from abuse. ‘Your comedy doesn’t come from the nice bits about our lives. It comes from the bits that are difficult,’ she says. (这门课程的创始人和授课老师是来自布里斯托尔的喜剧演员安吉•贝尔彻,她把自己的目标描述为帮助学生‘找到自己的banana’,无论是在经历离婚、为人父母还是从虐待中恢复的过程中。‘你的喜剧不是来自生活中美好的部分,而是来自那些艰难的部分,’她说。)”可知,喜剧创作的来源是生活中的痛苦难处,因此banana指的是“来自痛苦的喜剧来源”。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“Her courses now help her students do likewise, by facilitating games and exercises that can tap into their deepest vulnerabilities and insecurities. ‘I am not trying to make them into stand-up comedians, but to get them to face their thing — maybe it’s that they’re quiet or they’re nervous — and play with that,’ she explains. ‘The fact that, in 10 weeks, you’ve got to go on stage and try to make people laugh — unites everyone together in their fear. ’(她的课程现在通过设计游戏和练习,帮助学生挖掘他们内心深处的脆弱和不安全感,从而帮助他们做到同样的事情。‘我并不是想让他们成为单口相声演员,而是想让他们直面自己的问题——也许他们很内向或者很紧张——并以此为乐,’她解释道,‘事实上,在10周内,你必须上台并尝试逗人笑——这种恐惧将所有人团结在一起。’)”可知,贝尔彻的课程的目的不是把学生培养成单口相声演员,而是引导他们直面内心的困扰。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段“The course never labels itself as therapy — just a fun stand-up comedy lesson. This light form helps people lower their guard, look back at hardships with a relaxed mind, and gradually ease anxiety and fear. ‘If I’d asked these men, ‘Do you want to come to a therapeutic men’s school?’ they wouldn’t do that, but when we said, ‘Come and learn stand-up comedy,’ that worked,’ Belcher says. (这门课程从不将自己定位为疗法——而只是一堂有趣的单口喜剧课。这种轻松的形式有助于人们放下防备,以轻松的心态回顾过去的艰辛,并逐渐缓解焦虑和恐惧。‘如果我问这些人,‘你想来上一所男性疗法学校吗?’他们不会愿意,但当我们说,‘来学习单口喜剧吧,’他们就愿意了,’贝尔彻说。)”可知,贝尔彻的课程不标榜自己是治疗,只把自己定位为有趣的喜剧课程,这种轻松的形式能让人放下戒备,才起到了作用,因此课程有效的原因是它采用了轻松的方式。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段“The course never labels itself as therapy — just a fun stand-up comedy lesson.

C
People may disagree on many issues today. But one thing brings them together — the idea that children and teenagers should be banned from using social media which harm them. In December, Australia passed a law preventing under-16s from having accounts on platforms. Many other countries are considering similar measures, with over 70% of Britons and two-thirds of Americans supporting such bans.
This support comes from understandable concerns. Parents have been shocked by tragedies where social media played a role, such as children being tricked into sharing private information. There is also a general worry that these social media are making young people reserved, lonely and anxious. Many parents find it difficult to be the only ones keeping their children off apps, so blanket bans seem like an easy solution.
Yet policymakers should reconsider. The question of whether social media are causing mass harm is far from settled. Growing evidence suggests they are bad for at least some children. But, there is only limited evidence that social media cause great damage to the mental health of young people as a whole. More importantly, these bans may end up doing more harm than good.
One problem is that enforcing bans is hard. Teenagers in Australia are already finding clever ways to get around them. Defining social media is hard, too. Messaging apps and online games are often not included to avoid seeming too strict, and issues such as cyberbullying will doubtless continue on these. Kids banned from mainstream platforms could turn to less-known ones, where they may be targeted by online predators (捕食者). Furthermore, children who bypass the blocks may be less likely to tell adults for fear of getting into trouble. Child protection groups often oppose these bans for these very reasons.
Perhaps instead of simply banning access, we should focus on teaching young people how to navigate the online world safely. A better approach might be to make social media safer by design, rather than keeping teenagers away, only to let them loose on platforms they have no experience using.
8. What phenomenon does the author describe in paragraph 1?
A. Parents disagree on social media’s harmful effects.
B. People support banning teens from social media.
C. Many countries are divided over online safety laws.
D. Australia is the first country to ban social media.
9. What does the author think of the evidence that social media cause harm to mental health?
A. It has been confirmed by many studies.
B. It applies mainly to younger children.
C. It is weaker than commonly believed.
D. It has convinced many policymakers.
10. What does the author propose in the last paragraph?
A. Delaying teens’ access until they are old enough.
B. Letting teens loose on some familiar platforms.
C. Encouraging teenagers to design safer social media.
D. Guiding young people to use the Internet safely.
11. What is the best title for the text?
A. Why do parents support social media bans?
B. How can we ban children from social media?
C. Should teens be banned from social media?
D. How can we keep children safe on social media?
【答案】8. B 9. C 10. D 11. C
【解析】
【导语】本文介绍多国支持青少年社交媒体禁令的现状,分析禁令弊端,并提出更合理的青少年网络保护方式。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中的“But one thing brings them together — the idea that children and teenagers should be banned from using social media which harm them. In December, Australia passed a law preventing under-16s from having accounts on platforms. Many other countries are considering similar measures, with over 70% of Britons and two-thirds of Americans supporting such bans.(但有一件事让人们达成一致——应该禁止儿童和青少年使用对他们有害的社交媒体。12月,澳大利亚通过法律禁止16岁以下人群注册社交平台账号。许多其他国家正考虑出台类似措施,超七成英国人和三分之二美国人支持此类禁令)”可知,第一段主要描述民众普遍支持禁止青少年使用社交媒体的现象。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的“But, there is only limited evidence that social media cause great damage to the mental health of young people as a whole.(但是,总体而言,能证明社交媒体严重损害青少年心理健康的证据十分有限)”可知,作者认为社交媒体危害心理健康的证据,比大众普遍认为的要薄弱。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“Perhaps instead of simply banning access, we should focus on teaching young people how to navigate the online world safely.(或许我们不应一味禁止使用,而应着力教导年轻人安全畅游网络空间)”可知,作者提议引导青少年安全使用互联网。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,并结合最后一段“Perhaps instead of simply banning access, we should focus on teaching young people how to navigate the online world safely. A better approach might be to make social media safer by design, rather than keeping teenagers away, only to let them loose on platforms they have no experience using.(或许我们不应一味禁止使用,而应着力教导年轻人安全畅游网络空间。更妥当的做法是从设计层面提升社交媒体安全性,而非将青少年隔绝在外,致使他们转而涉足陌生平台)”可知,文章首先介绍各国推行、民众支持青少年社交媒体禁令的现状,接着分析该禁令存在诸多弊端、并不合理,最后提出替代的解决方案。C选项“是否应该禁止青少年使用社交媒体”能概括文章主旨,适合作标题。这一核心问题展开论述。
D
Is early intensive (高强度) training the key to becoming a world-class performer? The career of tennis champion Novak Djokovic — who started at four and joined a tennis academy at 12 and won his first major title at 20 — seems to be like that. However, a study published in Science which might be against the common idea suggests this path may be the exception rather than the rule, revealing that true superstars often develop quite differently.
Led by sports scientist Arne-Güllich, the research analyzed data from more than 34,000 elite (精英) performers in several areas, including sports, chess, classical music, and academia. It followed talented youngsters into their professional, adult careers.
When they examined the data, a striking pattern emerged. In every field studied, elite youth performers and elite adults formed almost entirely separate groups. About 90% of adult superstars had not been outstanding as children. By contrast, only about 10% of top-level child talents went on to become exceptional adults. The study found that exceptional performance in childhood was not just an unreliable predictor of adult success — the two were actually negatively correlated.
The research also revealed key behavioral differences. Adult superstars maintained broader interests for much longer. Future elite athletes often played multiple sports before specializing, and their performance initially fell behind more focused peers. However, once they specialized, their progress sped up rapidly — what researchers call better “training efficiency”.
Why does this pattern hold? The “search and match” theory suggests exploring various fields helps individuals find their best fit. “Enhanced learning” proposes that diverse experiences improve overall learning ability, making later specialization more effective. The “limited-risk hypothesis (假设)” simply suggests that avoiding early intense focus may prevent burnout and maintain motivation.
Dr Güllich emphasizes that his team is not saying the intensive early training does not work. It is a reliable way to produce highly competent people — just not the truly world-class ones. Sports academies and selective schools, in other words, may want to rethink how they do things.
12. Why does the author mention Novak Djokovic in paragraph 1?
A. To prove the importance of starting early.
B. To show the weakness of a common idea.
C. To stress a link between talent and fame.
D. To present a popular but later challenged belief.
13. Who will get better “training efficiency”?
A. A kid who practices piano 8 hours every day from age four.
B. A boy who tries several sports for long and later focus on one.
C. A student who drops all hobbies to focus on school work.
D. A player who doubles the training time to strengthen skills.
14. What is the main idea of paragraph 5?
A. The benefits of early specialization.
B. The prevention of burnout in young athletes.
C. The underlying logic of the later excellence.
D. The value of maintaining broader interests.
15. What does Dr Güllich suggest doing?
A. Doing more research. B. Adjusting current practices.
C. Abandoning early intensive training. D. Identifying child excellence earlier.
【答案】12. D 13. B 14. C 15. B
【解析】
【导语】文章反驳早期高强度专攻成才的普遍看法,研究表明年少多才、后期深耕的人更易成为顶尖强者,并阐释背后成因,建议调整现有人才培养方式。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Is early intensive training the key to becoming a world-class performer? The career of tennis champion Novak Djokovic — who started at four and joined a tennis academy at 12 and won his first major title at 20 — seems to be like that. However, a study published in Science which might be against the common idea suggests this path may be the exception rather than the rule, revealing that true superstars often develop quite differently. (早期高强度训练是成为世界级选手的关键吗?网球冠军德约科维奇4岁打球、12岁进入网球学院、20岁斩获首个重大赛事冠军,其职业生涯看似印证了这一观点。但《科学》杂志一项研究却颠覆大众认知,这类成长模式只是特例,顶尖人才的成长轨迹往往截然不同。)”可知,本段开篇提出大众观点“早期高强度训练是成为世界级选手的关键”,用德约科维奇的例子印证这个普遍流行的看法,随后转折引出一项研究对该观点的质疑。因此作者提德约科维奇是为了呈现一个流行的、后续被挑战的观点。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“The research also revealed key behavioral differences. Adult superstars maintained broader interests for much longer. Future elite athletes often played multiple sports before specializing, and their performance initially fell behind more focused peers. However, once they specialized, their progress sped up rapidly — what researchers call better ‘training efficiency’. (研究还发现行为差异:顶尖成年人才保持多元兴趣的时间要长得多。未来的精英运动员在专攻之前通常会参加多项运动,他们的表现最初会落后于那些更专注的同龄人。然而,一旦他们专攻某项运动,他们的进步就会迅速加快——研究人员称之为更好的‘训练效率’。)”可知,更好的“训练效率”指的是长期保持广泛兴趣,先尝试多项运动,之后再专注一项,专精后进步飞速,选项B“A boy who tries several sports for long and later focus on one. (一个男孩长期尝试多种运动,后来专注于一项运动。)”符合该定义的描述。
【14题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第五段“Why does this pattern hold? The ‘search and match’ theory suggests exploring various fields helps individuals find their best fit. ‘Enhanced learning’ proposes that diverse experiences improve overall learning ability, making later specialization more effective. The ‘limited-risk hypothesis’ simply suggests that avoiding early intense focus may prevent burnout and maintain motivation. (为何这种模式会持续存在?‘搜索与匹配’理论认为,探索不同领域有助于个人找到最适合自己的领域。‘强化学习’理论则提出,多样化的经历能提升整体学习能力,使后续的专业化学习更为有效。‘有限风险假设’则简单指出,避免早期过度专注可防止精疲力尽,保持学习动力。)”可知,本段用三个理论解释了“大器晚成(后期专精反而成为顶级选手)”背后的原因,也就是“后来变得卓越的内在逻辑”。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Dr Güllich emphasizes that his team is not saying the intensive early training does not work. It is a reliable way to produce highly competent people — just not the truly world-class ones. Sports academies and selective schools, in other words, may want to rethink how they do things. (居利希博士强调,他的团队并不是说密集的早期训练不起作用。这是一种培养高素质人才的可靠方式——只是培养不出真正的世界级人才。换言之,体育院校和精英学校可能需要重新思考他们的培养方式。)”可知,居利希博士建议体育院校和精英学校可能需要重新思考他们的培养方式,也就是建议他们调整当前的做法。
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。
Pets are wonderful companions that can make any place feel like home. ____16____ They may also leave fur all over your clean sofa or bed. When these inconveniences arise, you may try these strategies to train your pets to stay off the furniture for good.
____17____ Once you’ve brought home a new pet, it’s best to make it a rule from day one, if your pet’s being on the furniture is an issue for you. It will be much harder to break this habit once your pet has learned that it’s acceptable to be on the sofa, so containing this behavior from an early age is crucial.
Provide comfortable alternatives before training pets to avoid furniture. If your pet rejects the pet bed, appoint one unused furniture piece as their permitted spot. Make sure it appeals to them. ____18____ This approach addresses their comfort needs while establishing clear boundaries, reducing their unwillingness to leave forbidden areas.
Issue a firm “Off” command, when noticing your dog on forbidden furniture, instead of physically removing it. ____19____ Consistently reward with praise each time it obeys, but gradually reduce rewarding frequency over following trainings. Ultimately, your dog will respond to the oral command, as the behavior becomes conditioned through repetition.
Give your pet more exercise. One possible reason why your cat may climb on furniture is that it doesn’t get enough exercise and stimulation on a daily basis. If you cannot provide them with a cat tree, get your cat a scratching post, and use interactive toys that allow your cat to chase, run, and jump. ____20____
A. Physical barriers initially prevent pets.
B. Restrict your pet’s access from the start.
C. By doing so, you can free yourself from this tiring situation.
D. Yet consistently stress that other furniture remains forbidden.
E. However, pets can become territorial over some pieces of furniture.
F. Immediately hold a treat near its nose and slowly guide it to the floor.
G. This would tire them out, weakening their urge to explore your furniture.
【答案】16. E 17. B 18. D 19. F 20. G

【19题详解】
上文“Issue a firm “Off” command, when noticing your dog on forbidden furniture, instead of physically removing it.(当发现狗狗待在禁止触碰的家具上时,坚定发出“下来”的指令,而非直接挪开它)”讲述纠正狗狗行为的初始指令做法,下文“Consistently reward with praise each time it obeys...(每次它服从指令就持续表扬奖励……)”讲述后续训练方式。F选项“Immediately hold a treat near its nose and slowly guide it to the floor.(立刻在它鼻子旁拿着零食,慢慢引导它落地)”承接上文口令指令,衔接具体的训练动作,完善整套训练流程。
【20题详解】
上文“If you cannot provide them with a cat tree, get your cat a scratching post, and use interactive toys that allow your cat to chase, run, and jump.(如果无法提供猫爬架,就给猫咪准备猫抓板和互动玩具,让它追逐、奔跑、跳跃)”讲述消耗猫咪精力的方式。G选项“This would tire them out, weakening their urge to explore your furniture.(这会消耗它们的精力,减弱它们探索家具的欲望)”承接上文的运动方式,说明该做法的作用,呼应本段通过运动改善宠物攀爬家具问题的主旨。

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。
The first dog I ever had was named Faith. She was a well-loved and happy dog, but that is not how she looked when I first found her.
I remembered that day very clearly. It was a cold, rainy evening. As I made a U-turn on the country road, my headlights caught a small body huddling (蜷) under a signpost. It was an old, thin dog with matted (打结的) fur. I pulled over and got out. The dog didn’t run. As the light shifted, I noticed its broken front leg and a faded mark on its left ear: a string of numbers I didn’t think much about then.
It let out a soft cry, looking up at me with big, sad eyes, as if begging for help. My heart ached, but I hesitated. Taking on a stray dog meant responsibility, vet bills, and a change to my quiet life. After a moment of internal struggle, I turned and walked away, telling myself it was probably someone’s pet, or someone else would stop, or the dog would be fine on its own. Behind me, there was only silence. No bark. No cry. Just the rain.
But I couldn’t stop thinking about that dog. Its image — thin, alone, and helpless — kept flashing through my mind. Had I done the right thing? The thought that it might be hungry, cold, or in danger troubled me. At night, I tossed and turned, seeing those sad eyes every time I closed my own.
The next morning, my friend came over. I mentioned the dog, describing its matted fur, broken leg, and the faded numbers in its ear. My friend’s face turned serious. “That sounds like a laboratory beagle,” he said. “You know, the ones used for animal experiments. They’re often abandoned afterwards, with scars and injuries from the tests.”
His words struck me hard. “You left it there?” he asked, his voice sharp with disbelief. I opened my mouth, but no words came out.

My heart heavy with guilt and hope, I said, “Let’s go.”

After our visit to the animal hospital, I brought the dog home.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】
My heart heavy with guilt and hope, I said, “Let’s go.” We rushed to the country road immediately, praying the poor dog was still there. Fortunately, she was still huddling under the signpost, trembling in the cold wind. I knelt down gently, speaking softly to comfort her. This time, I did not hesitate at all. I carefully lifted her thin body into my arms and hurried to the nearest animal hospital. She even gave a slight, gentle wag of her tail, as if she sensed my sincere willingness to help.
After our visit to the animal hospital, I brought the dog home. I named her Faith, hoping she could regain strength and faith in life. I bathed her, fed her carefully, and stuck to accompanying her rehabilitation training every day. Gradually, her broken leg recovered, her fur became smooth and shiny, and she turned into a lively, cheerful dog. She always stayed by my side faithfully, bringing endless warmth and joy to my life. It was the best decision I’d ever made, turning regret into a lifetime of gentle companionship.

ACT OF KINDNESS
You don’t have to make big actions to brighten someone’s day. It can be as simple as letting someone behind you in the queue go ahead of you.

Mohan Gupta, who was diagnosed (诊断) with a severe psychological disorder, got a special social treatment through a course called Comedy on Referral — a 10-week programme teaching students how to write and perform a 10-minute comedy set about their lives.
Angie Belcher, the Bristol-based comedian who created and teaches the course, describes her goal as helping her students “find their banana”, whether that’s going through a divorce, struggling with parenthood, or recovering from abuse. “Your comedy doesn’t come from the nice bits about our lives. It comes from the bits that are difficult,” she says.
Belcher first discovered the healing power of laughter when her mother was diagnosed with dementia. Back then, she and her brother tried to find the lighter side of the tough situation, which gave them the strength to keep going.
Her courses now help her students do likewise, by facilitating games and exercises that can tap into their deepest vulnerabilities (脆弱) and insecurities. “I am not trying to make them into stand-up comedians, but to get them to face their thing — maybe it’s that they’re quiet or they’re nervous — and play with that,” she explains. “The fact that, in 10 weeks, you’ve got to go on stage and try to make people laugh — unites everyone together in their fear.”
The course never labels itself as therapy (疗法) — just a fun stand-up comedy lesson. This light form helps people lower their guard, look back at hardships with a relaxed mind, and gradually ease anxiety and fear. “If I’d asked these men, ‘Do you want to come to a therapeutic men’s school?’ they wouldn’t do that, but when we said, ‘Come and learn stand-up comedy,’ that worked,” Belcher says.
Belcher’s comedy course has won wide support from National Health Service and local charities. As Gupta put it, the course’s only problem is its popularity — he had to wait two years to get a place.
4. What does the underlined word “banana” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Joy in family life. B. Inspiration from others.
C. Comedic source of pain. D. Potential to be comedians.
5. How does Belcher’s course help people?
A. By helping them improve their personalities.
B. By guiding them to face their inner trouble.
C. By involving them into physical exercises.
D. By training them into stand-up comedians.
6. According to Belcher, why does her course work?
A. It offers students a stage. B. It provides professional therapy.
C. It adopts a light approach. D. It promotes teamwork among students.
7. What does Belcher’s course show?
A. Unity is strength. B. Laughter is the best medicine.
C. No pains, no gains. D. Hardship makes a better comedian.
C
People may disagree on many issues today. But one thing brings them together — the idea that children and teenagers should be banned from using social media which harm them. In December, Australia passed a law preventing under-16s from having accounts on platforms. Many other countries are considering similar measures, with over 70% of Britons and two-thirds of Americans supporting such bans.
This support comes from understandable concerns. Parents have been shocked by tragedies where social media played a role, such as children being tricked into sharing private information. There is also a general worry that these social media are making young people reserved, lonely and anxious. Many parents find it difficult to be the only ones keeping their children off apps, so blanket bans seem like an easy solution.
Yet policymakers should reconsider. The question of whether social media are causing mass harm is far from settled. Growing evidence suggests they are bad for at least some children. But, there is only limited evidence that social media cause great damage to the mental health of young people as a whole. More importantly, these bans may end up doing more harm than good.
One problem is that enforcing bans is hard. Teenagers in Australia are already finding clever ways to get around them. Defining social media is hard, too. Messaging apps and online games are often not included to avoid seeming too strict, and issues such as cyberbullying will doubtless continue on these. Kids banned from mainstream platforms could turn to less-known ones, where they may be targeted by online predators (捕食者). Furthermore, children who bypass the blocks may be less likely to tell adults for fear of getting into trouble. Child protection groups often oppose these bans for these very reasons.
Perhaps instead of simply banning access, we should focus on teaching young people how to navigate the online world safely. A better approach might be to make social media safer by design, rather than keeping teenagers away, only to let them loose on platforms they have no experience using.
8. What phenomenon does the author describe in paragraph 1?
A. Parents disagree on social media’s harmful effects.
B. People support banning teens from social media.
C. Many countries are divided over online safety laws.
D. Australia is the first country to ban social media.
9. What does the author think of the evidence that social media cause harm to mental health?
A. It has been confirmed by many studies.
B. It applies mainly to younger children.
C. It is weaker than commonly believed.
D. It has convinced many policymakers.
10. What does the author propose in the last paragraph?
A. Delaying teens’ access until they are old enough.
B. Letting teens loose on some familiar platforms.
C. Encouraging teenagers to design safer social media.
D. Guiding young people to use the Internet safely.
11. What is the best title for the text?
A. Why do parents support social media bans?
B. How can we ban children from social media?
C. Should teens be banned from social media?
D. How can we keep children safe on social media?
D
Is early intensive (高强度) training the key to becoming a world-class performer? The career of tennis champion Novak Djokovic — who started at four and joined a tennis academy at 12 and won his first major title at 20 — seems to be like that. However, a study published in Science which might be against the common idea suggests this path may be the exception rather than the rule, revealing that true superstars often develop quite differently.
Led by sports scientist Arne-Güllich, the research analyzed data from more than 34,000 elite (精英) performers in several areas, including sports, chess, classical music, and academia. It followed talented youngsters into their professional, adult careers.
When they examined the data, a striking pattern emerged. In every field studied, elite youth performers and elite adults formed almost entirely separate groups. About 90% of adult superstars had not been outstanding as children. By contrast, only about 10% of top-level child talents went on to become exceptional adults. The study found that exceptional performance in childhood was not just an unreliable predictor of adult success — the two were actually negatively correlated.
The research also revealed key behavioral differences. Adult superstars maintained broader interests for much longer. Future elite athletes often played multiple sports before specializing, and their performance initially fell behind more focused peers. However, once they specialized, their progress sped up rapidly — what researchers call better “training efficiency”.
Why does this pattern hold? The “search and match” theory suggests exploring various fields helps individuals find their best fit. “Enhanced learning” proposes that diverse experiences improve overall learning ability, making later specialization more effective. The “limited-risk hypothesis (假设)” simply suggests that avoiding early intense focus may prevent burnout and maintain motivation.
Dr Güllich emphasizes that his team is not saying the intensive early training does not work. It is a reliable way to produce highly competent people — just not the truly world-class ones. Sports academies and selective schools, in other words, may want to rethink how they do things.
12. Why does the author mention Novak Djokovic in paragraph 1?
A. To prove the importance of starting early.
B. To show the weakness of a common idea.
C. To stress a link between talent and fame.
D. To present a popular but later challenged belief.
13. Who will get better “training efficiency”?
A. A kid who practices piano 8 hours every day from age four.
B. A boy who tries several sports for long and later focus on one.
C. A student who drops all hobbies to focus on school work.
D. A player who doubles the training time to strengthen skills.
14. What is the main idea of paragraph 5?
A. The benefits of early specialization.
B. The prevention of burnout in young athletes.
C. The underlying logic of the later excellence.
D. The value of maintaining broader interests.
15. What does Dr Güllich suggest doing?
A. Doing more research. B. Adjusting current practices.
C. Abandoning early intensive training. D. Identifying child excellence earlier.

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。
Pets are wonderful companions that can make any place feel like home. ____16____ They may also leave fur all over your clean sofa or bed. When these inconveniences arise, you may try these strategies to train your pets to stay off the furniture for good.
____17____ Once you’ve brought home a new pet, it’s best to make it a rule from day one, if your pet’s being on the furniture is an issue for you. It will be much harder to break this habit once your pet has learned that it’s acceptable to be on the sofa, so containing this behavior from an early age is crucial.
Provide comfortable alternatives before training pets to avoid furniture. If your pet rejects the pet bed, appoint one unused furniture piece as their permitted spot. Make sure it appeals to them. ____18____ This approach addresses their comfort needs while establishing clear boundaries, reducing their unwillingness to leave forbidden areas.
Issue a firm “Off” command, when noticing your dog on forbidden furniture, instead of physically removing it. ____19____ Consistently reward with praise each time it obeys, but gradually reduce rewarding frequency over following trainings. Ultimately, your dog will respond to the oral command, as the behavior becomes conditioned through repetition.
Give your pet more exercise. One possible reason why your cat may climb on furniture is that it doesn’t get enough exercise and stimulation on a daily basis. If you cannot provide them with a cat tree, get your cat a scratching post, and use interactive toys that allow your cat to chase, run, and jump. ____20____
A. Physical barriers initially prevent pets.
B. Restrict your pet’s access from the start.
C. By doing so, you can free yourself from this tiring situation.
D. Yet consistently stress that other furniture remains forbidden.
E. However, pets can become territorial over some pieces of furniture.
F. Immediately hold a treat near its nose and slowly guide it to the floor.
G. This would tire them out, weakening their urge to explore your furniture.

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。
The first dog I ever had was named Faith. She was a well-loved and happy dog, but that is not how she looked when I first found her.
I remembered that day very clearly. It was a cold, rainy evening. As I made a U-turn on the country road, my headlights caught a small body huddling (蜷) under a signpost. It was an old, thin dog with matted (打结的) fur. I pulled over and got out. The dog didn’t run. As the light shifted, I noticed its broken front leg and a faded mark on its left ear: a string of numbers I didn’t think much about then.
It let out a soft cry, looking up at me with big, sad eyes, as if begging for help. My heart ached, but I hesitated. Taking on a stray dog meant responsibility, vet bills, and a change to my quiet life. After a moment of internal struggle, I turned and walked away, telling myself it was probably someone’s pet, or someone else would stop, or the dog would be fine on its own. Behind me, there was only silence. No bark. No cry. Just the rain.
But I couldn’t stop thinking about that dog. Its image — thin, alone, and helpless — kept flashing through my mind. Had I done the right thing? The thought that it might be hungry, cold, or in danger troubled me. At night, I tossed and turned, seeing those sad eyes every time I closed my own.
The next morning, my friend came over. I mentioned the dog, describing its matted fur, broken leg, and the faded numbers in its ear. My friend’s face turned serious. “That sounds like a laboratory beagle,” he said. “You know, the ones used for animal experiments. They’re often abandoned afterwards, with scars and injuries from the tests.”
His words struck me hard. “You left it there?” he asked, his voice sharp with disbelief. I opened my mouth, but no words came out.

My heart heavy with guilt and hope, I said, “Let’s go.”
