Till last year, I couldn’t remember the last time I’d done a jigsaw puzzle. It must have been at least 20 years ago. As far as I was concerned, puzzles were for kids. There were always other more exciting, interesting and productive things to do — or so I thought.
While at home on a rainy autumn afternoon, however, I chanced on a jigsaw puzzle that had been lying untouched since my husband and I were given it a few years ago. I’m not sure what came over me — perhaps it was because my husband was watching a film that didn’t particularly interest me — but I decided to give it a go.
The 1,000-piece puzzle took me a couple of weeks to complete. I would spend from five minutes to two hours on it at a time, depending on how busy I was. Strangely, there’s something so satisfying about finding the right piece for a space, joining up sections, getting closer to finishing a picture. Every time I successfully place a piece, I get a little rush and feel a sense of achievement. It’s a dopamine hit, but not one I usually get from just scrolling (刷屏) stream media. I soon became addicted to it.
Meanwhile, I’ve found an unexpected bonus: the slightly physical aspect of it, leaning over the pieces and picking different ones up, means I can’t be on my phone at the same time. I especially love that doing a puzzle doesn’t involve a screen in any capacity since so many aspects of my life almost can’t go without my computer, my phone or the television — even following a workout app in the gym or listening to a podcast on a walk.
And I’ve come to realize puzzling is not just for kids after all. Perhaps it was the very piece that I had failed to notice in my life all along.
4. What did the author use to view jigsaw puzzling as?
A. A popular time killer. B. A childish recreation.
C. A refreshing comfort. D. A handy stress reliever.
5. What does the underlined part “a dopamine hit” in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. A sudden wave of regret. B. A brief sense of relief.
C. A quick feeling of pleasure. D. A deep state of anticipation.
6. Which aspect of puzzling does the author favor most?
A. It is calming. B. It is screen-free.
C. It is educational. D. It is user-friendly.
7. What is the best title for the passage?
A. The Missing Piece of My Life. B. The Journey of Going Puzzle-free.
C. A Piece of Childhood Memory. D. An Unforgettable Rainy Afternoon.
C
Tiny House Shadow, a 365-square-foot sustainable tiny house, stands in Lohja as a response to modern day climate and population challenges. Designed by Matti Kuittinen, an architect professor at Aalto University, it is an exercise in what future building might look like.
“We need to reduce emissions (排放) from the building sector by 80-90%, and build almost 2 billion new homes by the end of the century,” warns Kuittinen. “These two goals are contradictory, which is why we need to consider totally different housing and construction solutions.” After years of research into these issues, Kuittinen has collaborated with construction companies to build his idealized sustainable structure.
Tiny House Shadow is entirely mobile and can be taken apart. It is the first of its kind to feature a specialized decarbonated steel in its exterior. Sustainable materials define the interior as well, with the floors made from recycled plastic, the ceilings from old tires and the windows from old buildings. In fact, the house uses 56% recycled materials across its entire build, this alone reducing its footprint by 53%.
Just by living in a home that is smaller — and less energy-consuming in both design and day-to-day consumption — people will live a more sustainable life. In the case of Tiny House Shadow which considers everyday functions and needs versus wants, each resident reduces his or her carbon footprint greatly compared to life in a conventional house. Through the architecture and the lifestyle it promotes, Tiny House Shadow re-images what our residential space could be without the unnecessary waste we’re used to.
But that being said, spending time in Kuittinen’s design doesn’t mean roughing it. “Living in a tiny house doesn’t necessarily mean giving up comfort,” Kuittinen said. Inside, it can be transformed according to use, thanks to movable partitions and space-saving rooms separated by sliding doors and other mechanisms.
Regularly exhibited as a sample at construction fairs, Tiny House Shadow has made a remarkable entrance on the market. Kuittinen hopes it can be a demonstration of low-emission, resource-efficient single-family housing for the modern age.
8. What is the core reason for Kuittinen’s design?
A. To trade space for sustainability.
B. To stay true to his longtime ideals.
C. To balance emission cut and housing.
D. To create a cheaper alternative to flats.
9. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about concerning Shadow?
A. Its building process. B. Its spacious layout. C. Its commercial value. D. Its sustainable design.
10. What living philosophy is embodied in Tiny House Shadow?
A. Idealism. B. Minimalism. C. Materialism. D. Optimism.
11. What is Kuittinen’s expectation of Tiny House Shadow?
A. Serving as a building model. B. Entering the market quickly.
C. Attracting sufficient funding. D. Winning prizes at building fairs.
D
“Humans have around 20,000 protein-coding genes, but little is known about how those protein molecules (分子) organize and interact,” says Trey Ideker, a professor of medicine at the University of California San Diego. Without that knowledge, trying to study and treat disease is “like trying to understand how to fix your car without the repair guide”.
In an April 2025 study in Nature, Ideker and his team presented their latest attempt to fill this information gap: a map of a human cell, showing the locations of more than 5,000 proteins organized into 275 smaller and smaller structures. The map goes far beyond the simplified diagrams you may recall from high school biology class.
The team achieved this level of detail by taking a “multimodal” approach. First, to figure out which proteins interact inside our cells, the researchers lined a tube with a particular protein, called the “bait (诱饵)” protein. Then, they poured a blended mixture of other proteins through the tube to see which ones would stick together, showing an interaction. Next, to locate these proteins precisely, they lit up individual molecules inside a cell using glowing antibodies. These antibodies stick to specific substances. Once the antibodies found their target, the lighted protein was visualized under a microscope and placed on the map.
There are many human cell types, and the one Ideker’s team chose to map is called the U2OS cell. It is commonly associated with childhood bone cancer. Indeed, the researchers identified more than 100 new mutated (突变) proteins that are linked to childhood cancer, helping reveal how the disease develops. Better yet, they located those proteins within the cell. Typically, cancer research is focused on individual mutations, but by placing them in context, the map provides a look at the larger structures that individual mutations affect.
“The U2OS cell took more than three years to chart, but technology and methodological improvements could speed up the mapping of other cells in the future,” Ideker adds. “Our goal is ’to really scale it up’ and reveal the subcellular architecture beneath all sorts of diseases.”
12. What is stressed by using the metaphor in paragraph 1?
A. The diversity of genes. B. The severity of disease.
C. The necessity of car maintenance. D. The significance of cell mapping.
13. What is the function of the glowing antibodies in the study?
A. Making the tube easily visible.
B. Breaking down unwanted proteins.
C. Identifying the location of the proteins.
D. Speeding up the interaction of the proteins.
14. What sets Ideker’s research apart from traditional cancer research?
A. It names a new cell U2OS. B. It prioritizes new mutated proteins.
C. It centers on individual cells. D. It contextualizes mutations within cells.
15. What is Ideker’s attitude towards the future research?
A. Cautious. B. Optimistic. C. Unconcerned. D. Doubtful.

When I sat in the sun one afternoon, it was noisy outside. The industrious buzz of bees in cherry flowers was annoying, accompanied by “back off” warning chirps from blackbirds nesting in the tree. ____16____ A mini-digger was tearing apart the neighboring garden, sending out a deep, continuous roar.

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 early morning sun streamed through the high windows of the gymnasium. Mum’s medals and trophies from years past lined the walls. I remembered how she used to let me wear them when I was little, telling me stories about her journey to the glory.
As usual, I watched Mum coach her gymnastics class. So gracefully did she move around the gymnasium that it was not hard to believe she had once been an outstanding gymnast. But something seemed different. “One more time, girls!” she called out, demonstrating a simple cartwheel (侧手翻). As she landed, she stumbled (踉跄) slightly and forced a smile. I saw how she was attempting to put less weight on her right ankle. The students did not notice it, but I did. It was the same ankle that had carried her through countless routines, but now seemed to be failing her.
My mind wandered back to when I was six, afraid to even do a forward roll. The gymnasium had seemed enormous then. Mum would spot me, her hands ready to catch me if I fell. When I had crashed during my first competition on the balance beam, she had been at the edge of the mat, encouraging me to continue. The memory was still vivid — the hushed audience, and my trembling legs as I stood up again. Pride in her eyes, she whispered then, “Every great gymnast falls, Sophie, but only the best ones get back up.”
Now, watching her massage (按摩) her ankle between demonstrations, I understood why she had been doing more coaching and less demonstrating lately. Her body was not responding the way it used to.
“Coach Chen,” one of the younger students called out, her ponytail bouncing with excitement, “Can you show us the cartwheel again?” A flash of pain crossed her face, so brief that only someone who knew her well would notice. She hesitated, and in that moment, I knew — she couldn’t do it.
注意:
(1)续写词数应为 150 个左右;
(2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
“Let me show you how,” I offered, moving to the center.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
After class, I took Mum to the nearby clinic.

Till last year, I couldn’t remember the last time I’d done a jigsaw puzzle. It must have been at least 20 years ago. As far as I was concerned, puzzles were for kids. There were always other more exciting, interesting and productive things to do — or so I thought.
While at home on a rainy autumn afternoon, however, I chanced on a jigsaw puzzle that had been lying untouched since my husband and I were given it a few years ago. I’m not sure what came over me — perhaps it was because my husband was watching a film that didn’t particularly interest me — but I decided to give it a go.
The 1,000-piece puzzle took me a couple of weeks to complete. I would spend from five minutes to two hours on it at a time, depending on how busy I was. Strangely, there’s something so satisfying about finding the right piece for a space, joining up sections, getting closer to finishing a picture. Every time I successfully place a piece, I get a little rush and feel a sense of achievement. It’s a dopamine hit, but not one I usually get from just scrolling (刷屏) stream media. I soon became addicted to it.
Meanwhile, I’ve found an unexpected bonus: the slightly physical aspect of it, leaning over the pieces and picking different ones up, means I can’t be on my phone at the same time. I especially love that doing a puzzle doesn’t involve a screen in any capacity since so many aspects of my life almost can’t go without my computer, my phone or the television — even following a workout app in the gym or listening to a podcast on a walk.
And I’ve come to realize puzzling is not just for kids after all. Perhaps it was the very piece that I had failed to notice in my life all along.
4. What did the author use to view jigsaw puzzling as?
A. A popular time killer. B. A childish recreation.
C. A refreshing comfort. D. A handy stress reliever.
5. What does the underlined part “a dopamine hit” in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. A sudden wave of regret. B. A brief sense of relief.
C. A quick feeling of pleasure. D. A deep state of anticipation.
6. Which aspect of puzzling does the author favor most?
A. It is calming. B. It is screen-free.
C. It is educational. D. It is user-friendly.
7. What is the best title for the passage?
A. The Missing Piece of My Life. B. The Journey of Going Puzzle-free.
C. A Piece of Childhood Memory. D. An Unforgettable Rainy Afternoon.
【答案】4. B 5. C 6. B 7. A
【解析】

Tiny House Shadow, a 365-square-foot sustainable tiny house, stands in Lohja as a response to modern day climate and population challenges. Designed by Matti Kuittinen, an architect professor at Aalto University, it is an exercise in what future building might look like.
“We need to reduce emissions (排放) from the building sector by 80-90%, and build almost 2 billion new homes by the end of the century,” warns Kuittinen. “These two goals are contradictory, which is why we need to consider totally different housing and construction solutions.” After years of research into these issues, Kuittinen has collaborated with construction companies to build his idealized sustainable structure.
Tiny House Shadow is entirely mobile and can be taken apart. It is the first of its kind to feature a specialized decarbonated steel in its exterior. Sustainable materials define the interior as well, with the floors made from recycled plastic, the ceilings from old tires and the windows from old buildings. In fact, the house uses 56% recycled materials across its entire build, this alone reducing its footprint by 53%.
Just by living in a home that is smaller — and less energy-consuming in both design and day-to-day consumption — people will live a more sustainable life. In the case of Tiny House Shadow which considers everyday functions and needs versus wants, each resident reduces his or her carbon footprint greatly compared to life in a conventional house. Through the architecture and the lifestyle it promotes, Tiny House Shadow re-images what our residential space could be without the unnecessary waste we’re used to.
But that being said, spending time in Kuittinen’s design doesn’t mean roughing it. “Living in a tiny house doesn’t necessarily mean giving up comfort,” Kuittinen said. Inside, it can be transformed according to use, thanks to movable partitions and space-saving rooms separated by sliding doors and other mechanisms.
Regularly exhibited as a sample at construction fairs, Tiny House Shadow has made a remarkable entrance on the market. Kuittinen hopes it can be a demonstration of low-emission, resource-efficient single-family housing for the modern age.
8. What is the core reason for Kuittinen’s design?
A. To trade space for sustainability.
B. To stay true to his longtime ideals.
C. To balance emission cut and housing.
D. To create a cheaper alternative to flats.
9. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about concerning Shadow?
A. Its building process. B. Its spacious layout. C. Its commercial value. D. Its sustainable design.
10. What living philosophy is embodied in Tiny House Shadow?
A. Idealism. B. Minimalism. C. Materialism. D. Optimism.
11. What is Kuittinen’s expectation of Tiny House Shadow?
A. Serving as a building model. B. Entering the market quickly.
C. Attracting sufficient funding. D. Winning prizes at building fairs.
【答案】8. C 9. D 10. B 11. A
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍的是芬兰阿尔托大学教授马蒂·库伊蒂宁设计的一座名为“Tiny House Shadow”的微型可持续住宅,旨在应对气候变化和人口增长带来的住房挑战。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“‘We need to reduce emissions (排放) from the building sector by 80-90%, and build almost 2 billion new homes by the end of the century,’ warns Kuittinen. ‘These two goals are contradictory, which is why we need to consider totally different housing and construction solutions.’ (‘我们需要将建筑行业的排放量减少80%至90%,同时在本世纪末之前建造近20亿套新住房,’库伊蒂宁警告道。‘这两个目标是相互矛盾的,这就是为什么我们需要考虑完全不同的住房和建筑解决方案。’)可知,我们需要大幅降低建筑行业排放,又要在本世纪末建造近20亿套新房,这两个目标相互矛盾,因此需要全新的住房方案。库伊蒂宁设计的核心原因是平衡减排与住房需求。
【9题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段“Tiny House Shadow is entirely mobile and can be taken apart. It is the first of its kind to feature a specialized decarbonated steel in its exterior. Sustainable materials define the interior as well, with the floors made from recycled plastic, the ceilings from old tires and the windows from old buildings. (Tiny House Shadow完全可以移动,并且可以拆卸。它是同类建筑中第一个在外部采用特殊脱碳钢材的建筑。可持续材料也定义了内部,地板由回收塑料制成,天花板由旧轮胎制成,窗户来自旧建筑。)”可知,第三段主要讲述的是Tiny House Shadow可持续的设计特点,包括其可移动性、可拆卸性以及内外部使用的各种环保材料。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“In the case of Tiny House Shadow which considers everyday functions and needs versus wants, each resident reduces his or her carbon footprint greatly compared to life in a conventional house. Through the architecture and the lifestyle it promotes, Tiny House Shadow re-images what our residential space could be without the unnecessary waste we’re used to. (就Tiny House Shadow而言,它考虑了日常功能和需求而非欲望,与传统房屋生活相比,每位居民都大大减少了自己的碳足迹。通过其建筑结构和所倡导的生活方式,Tiny House Shadow重新构想了我们居住空间的可能性,摆脱了我们习以为常的不必要浪费。)”可知,Tiny House Shadow体现的生活哲学是极简主义(Minimalism)——注重实际需求而非欲望,减少不必要的浪费,追求更小、更节能的居住空间。
【11题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“Kuittinen hopes it can be a demonstration of low-emission, resource-efficient single-family housing for the modern age. (库伊蒂宁希望它能成为现代低排放、资源高效利用的单户住宅的示范。)”可知,库伊蒂宁对Tiny House Shadow的期望是将其作为建筑模型,展示未来住宅的可能性。

“Humans have around 20,000 protein-coding genes, but little is known about how those protein molecules (分子) organize and interact,” says Trey Ideker, a professor of medicine at the University of California San Diego. Without that knowledge, trying to study and treat disease is “like trying to understand how to fix your car without the repair guide”.
In an April 2025 study in Nature, Ideker and his team presented their latest attempt to fill this information gap: a map of a human cell, showing the locations of more than 5,000 proteins organized into 275 smaller and smaller structures. The map goes far beyond the simplified diagrams you may recall from high school biology class.
The team achieved this level of detail by taking a “multimodal” approach. First, to figure out which proteins interact inside our cells, the researchers lined a tube with a particular protein, called the “bait (诱饵)” protein. Then, they poured a blended mixture of other proteins through the tube to see which ones would stick together, showing an interaction. Next, to locate these proteins precisely, they lit up individual molecules inside a cell using glowing antibodies. These antibodies stick to specific substances. Once the antibodies found their target, the lighted protein was visualized under a microscope and placed on the map.
There are many human cell types, and the one Ideker’s team chose to map is called the U2OS cell. It is commonly associated with childhood bone cancer. Indeed, the researchers identified more than 100 new mutated (突变) proteins that are linked to childhood cancer, helping reveal how the disease develops. Better yet, they located those proteins within the cell. Typically, cancer research is focused on individual mutations, but by placing them in context, the map provides a look at the larger structures that individual mutations affect.
“The U2OS cell took more than three years to chart, but technology and methodological improvements could speed up the mapping of other cells in the future,” Ideker adds. “Our goal is ’to really scale it up’ and reveal the subcellular architecture beneath all sorts of diseases.”
12. What is stressed by using the metaphor in paragraph 1?
A. The diversity of genes. B. The severity of disease.
C. The necessity of car maintenance. D. The significance of cell mapping.
13. What is the function of the glowing antibodies in the study?
A. Making the tube easily visible.
B. Breaking down unwanted proteins.
C. Identifying the location of the proteins.
D. Speeding up the interaction of the proteins.
14. What sets Ideker’s research apart from traditional cancer research?
A. It names a new cell U2OS. B. It prioritizes new mutated proteins.
C. It centers on individual cells. D. It contextualizes mutations within cells.
15. What is Ideker’s attitude towards the future research?
A. Cautious. B. Optimistic. C. Unconcerned. D. Doubtful.
【答案】12. D 13. C 14. D 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了加州大学圣地亚哥分校的Trey Ideker教授及其团队绘制了一张人类细胞图谱,揭示了5000多种蛋白质在细胞内的位置和相互关系,为研究和治疗疾病提供了全新的“维修手册”。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段““Humans have around 20,000 protein-coding genes, but little is known about how those protein molecules (分子) organize and interact,” says Trey Ideker, a professor of medicine at the University of California San Diego. Without that knowledge, trying to study and treat disease is “like trying to understand how to fix your car without the repair guide”.(“人类大约有20,000个蛋白质编码基因,但人们对这些蛋白质分子如何组织和相互作用知之甚少,”加州大学圣地亚哥分校医学教授Trey Ideker说道。没有这些知识,试图研究和治疗疾病就像“试图在没有维修手册的情况下弄懂如何修车一样”。)”可知,在第一段中运用这个比喻所强调的内容是细胞图谱的重要性。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的“These antibodies stick to specific substances. Once the antibodies found their target, the lighted protein was visualized under a microscope and placed on the map.(这些抗体会粘附到特定的物质上。一旦抗体找到目标,被点亮的蛋白质就会在显微镜下被可视化,并被放置到图谱上。)”可知,该研究中发光的抗体所起的作用是确定蛋白质的位置。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Typically, cancer research is focused on individual mutations, but by placing them in context, the map provides a look at the larger structures that individual mutations affect.(一般而言,癌症研究聚焦于单个基因突变,而该图谱结合整体背景,能够呈现单个突变所影响的整体细胞结构。)”可知,Ideker的研究与传统的癌症研究的不同之处在于它将基因突变置于细胞整体结构背景中展开研究。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段““The U2OS cell took more than three years to chart, but technology and methodological improvements could speed up the mapping of other cells in the future,” Ideker adds.(“绘制U2OS细胞图谱花了三年多时间,但技术和方法的改进可以在未来加速其他细胞的绘制,”Ideker补充道。)”可知,Ideker对于未来的研究持乐观态度。

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 early morning sun streamed through the high windows of the gymnasium. Mum’s medals and trophies from years past lined the walls. I remembered how she used to let me wear them when I was little, telling me stories about her journey to the glory.
As usual, I watched Mum coach her gymnastics class. So gracefully did she move around the gymnasium that it was not hard to believe she had once been an outstanding gymnast. But something seemed different. “One more time, girls!” she called out, demonstrating a simple cartwheel (侧手翻). As she landed, she stumbled (踉跄) slightly and forced a smile. I saw how she was attempting to put less weight on her right ankle. The students did not notice it, but I did. It was the same ankle that had carried her through countless routines, but now seemed to be failing her.
My mind wandered back to when I was six, afraid to even do a forward roll. The gymnasium had seemed enormous then. Mum would spot me, her hands ready to catch me if I fell. When I had crashed during my first competition on the balance beam, she had been at the edge of the mat, encouraging me to continue. The memory was still vivid — the hushed audience, and my trembling legs as I stood up again. Pride in her eyes, she whispered then, “Every great gymnast falls, Sophie, but only the best ones get back up.”
Now, watching her massage (按摩) her ankle between demonstrations, I understood why she had been doing more coaching and less demonstrating lately. Her body was not responding the way it used to.
“Coach Chen,” one of the younger students called out, her ponytail bouncing with excitement, “Can you show us the cartwheel again?” A flash of pain crossed her face, so brief that only someone who knew her well would notice. She hesitated, and in that moment, I knew — she couldn’t do it.

After class, I took Mum to the nearby clinic.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
“Let me show you how,” I offered, moving to the center. The young gymnasts gathered around me, their eyes carrying the very hunger I had once known. I took a deep breath, feeling the familiar texture of the mat beneath my feet. Then I began — placed my palms firmly on the ground, lifted my legs high, spun sideways and landed lightly — a perfect cartwheel, just as Mum had taught me. The students gasped, then burst into applause. I glanced toward Mum, who was watching me with pride.
After class, I took Mum to the nearby clinic. Test results showed her ankle needed at least a month of rest. Mum sighed softly, her eyes clouding with a sadness she quickly masked with a weak smile. Leaning close to her, I could sense the tiredness in her shoulders. “When did you grow up so much?” she whispered gently. “You taught me: every great gymnast falls, but only the best ones get back up. You’ve ‘fallen’ this time, Mum, but I firmly believe you will rise again.” And in that moment, I realized it was my turn to stand by her side — to be her spotter.
