【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章介绍了国际语言学奥林匹克竞赛的基本信息、参赛规则及奖项设置。
【1题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“To compete at the IOL, no special knowledge is required, only basic language concepts, logic, patience, and creative thinking. Try this beginner sample to see if the IOL is right for you.(参加国际语言学奥林匹克竞赛无需特殊知识储备,只需掌握基础语言概念、逻辑思维、耐心与创造性思维。不妨通过这道入门样题,测试自己是否适合这项挑战)”和下面的两道样题可知,解答下面的样题需要逻辑推理能力。故选B项。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据“Contest Rules”部分中“The individual contest involves solving five problems in six hours, whereas the team contest features one problem with two hours less. (个人赛需在六小时内解答五道题,而团队赛则是一道题,时间少两小时)”可知,个人赛和团队赛在比赛时长上存在差异。故选A项。
【3题详解】
细节理解题。根据“Awards”部分中“In the individual contest, the number of gold, silver, and bronze medals awarded shall be in the ratio 1:2:3, with the total number of medals being between one quarter and one third of the contestants. (在个人赛中,金、银、铜牌的数量比例为1:2:3,奖牌总数在参赛人数的四分之一到三分之一之间)”可知,当个人赛参赛者为240人时,奖牌总数应在240×1/4=60到240×1/3=80之间,且金银铜牌比例为1:2:3,即奖牌总数应为1+2+3=6的倍数。选项中符合在60到80之间且为6的倍数的只有72。故选C项。

Do you ever blend up a protein drink for breakfast, or grab a protein bar following an afternoon workout? If so, you are likely among the millions of people in search of more protein-rich diets. Protein-enriched products are found everywhere. But contrary to all the publicity that everyone needs more protein, most Americans get twice as much as they need. Many of us living in the most developed countries are buying into a myth of protein deficiency created by food companies and self-identified health experts. Global retail sales of protein supplement products reached an astonishing U.S. $18.9 billion in 2020.
But are we really in need of more protein? Physicians in the U.S., have never actually examined a patient with protein deficiency because simply by eating an adequate number of daily calories we are also most likely getting enough protein. In fact, Americans currently consume almost twice the National Academy of Medicine’s recommended daily intake of protein although the most desirable protein intake may vary depending on age and activity level. For example, if you’re a dedicated athlete you might need to consume higher quantities of protein. Generally, though, a 140-pound person should not exceed 120 grams of protein per day, particularly because a high protein diet can strain kidney and liver function and increase risks of developing heart disease and cancer.While fats and sugar have taken the beating in turns since over a century ago, protein has managed to remain our red-hot favorite. In the 1970s through the 1990s, protein products remained visible but moved back somewhat with the dietary spotlight firmly fixed on low-calorie, low-fat, sugar-free snack foods and beverages following the publication of studies linking sugar and saturated (饱和的) fat consumption to heart disease. Later research in 2003, however, suggested high-protein diets could aid in weight loss, and protein quickly regained its former nutrient-superstar status.
Now most people living in high-income nations are consuming enough protein. When we replace meals with a protein bar or drink, we also risk missing out on the rich sources of antioxidants (抗氧化剂), vitamins and many other benefits of real food.
4. Why have physicians in the U.S. never actually examined a patient with protein deficiency?
A. Americans can get sufficient protein just by eating adequate foods daily.
B. Americans can absorb the number of calories recommended by food experts.
C. Americans can purchase many kinds of protein-rich foods everywhere.
D. Americans can rely on food supplements to prevent protein deficiency.
5. What should people take into consideration in deciding on the most preferable protein intake?
A. How healthy they are and what food they eat.
B. How much protein they consume and what their body weight is.
C. How old they are and what activities they do.
D. How serious their protein deficiency is and what remedies they use.
6. What foods have been largely out of favor for more than a century?
A. Sugar-free snacks. B. Sugary and fatty foods.
C. Both red and white meats. D. Protein-rich foods.
7. What does the author imply people in developed countries should do to keep healthy?
A. Replace meals with protein bars. B. Eat vegetarian diets.
C. Consume enough protein daily. D. Enjoy natural food.
【答案】4 A 5. C 6. B 7. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍美国人蛋白质摄入过量的现状,纠正蛋白质缺乏的误区,并说明过量摄入的危害及健康建议。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Physicians in the U.S., have never actually examined a patient with protein deficiency because simply by eating an adequate number of daily calories we are also most likely getting enough protein.(美国的医生从未真正检查过蛋白质缺乏的患者,因为仅仅通过摄入足够的每日卡路里,我们很可能也能获得足够的蛋白质)”可知,美国医生从未检查过蛋白质缺乏的患者,是因为美国人只需每天吃足够的食物(摄入足够卡路里)就能获得充足的蛋白质。故选A项。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“In fact, Americans currently consume almost twice the National Academy of Medicine’s recommended daily intake of protein although the most desirable protein intake may vary depending on age and activity level.(事实上,美国人目前摄入的蛋白质几乎是国家医学院推荐每日摄入量的两倍,尽管最理想的蛋白质摄入量可能因年龄和活动水平而异)”可知,人们在决定最理想的蛋白质摄入量时,应考虑自己的年龄和所做的活动(活动水平)。故选C项。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“While fats and sugar have taken the beating in turns since over a century ago, protein has managed to remain our red-hot favorite.(一个多世纪以来,脂肪和糖轮流受到抨击,而蛋白质却一直是我们的热门最爱)”可知,一个多世纪以来,脂肪和糖(含糖和高脂肪的食物)在很大程度上不受欢迎,一直受到抨击。故选B项。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“When we replace meals with a protein bar or drink, we also risk missing out on the rich sources of antioxidants (抗氧化剂), vitamins and many other benefits of real food.(当我们用蛋白棒或蛋白饮料代替正餐时,我们也可能会错过天然食物中丰富的抗氧化剂、维生素和许多其他益处)”可推断,作者暗示发达国家的人们应该吃天然食物来保持健康。故选D项。
C
Consumers rely on various ways to pay daily expenses. The problem is that they tend to spend more with cashless payment methods in comparison to cash. This striking cashless effect has recently been confirmed by researchers from the University of Adelaide.
Led by PhD Student Lachlan Schomburgk, the research team analysed 71 published and unpublished studies from 17 countries, including data from more than 11,000 unique participants. They’ve found that cashless payments lead people to spend more on status-signalling goods like jewellery, while this effect is notably absent in acts of donation or tipping.
“Through this meta-analysis, we identified key factors that make the cashless effect stronger or weaker, which individual studies could not find. By doing this, we uncovered new key understandings that had often been overlooked by other researchers in individual studies.” Schomburgk explains.
The findings indicate that consumers should be mindful of how they pay for goods or services, as this helps them spend less, especially critical in the current cost-of-living crisis. To avoid overspending, they’re advised to carry cash instead of cards whenever possible as a self-control method. When using cash, they count and hand over notes and coins, making spending more noticeable. If nothing is physically handed over, it’s easy to lose track of how much is spent.
The study also provides useful insights for businesses and policymakers. “Businesses should know failing to accept the cashless revolution might unintentionally be jeopardising profit potential,” Schomburgk says. “And policymakers should communicate to individuals unfamiliar with cashless payments, such as people who don’t have bank accounts, about the possibility of cashless methods to lead to overspending.”
Schomburgk stresses a need for urgent in-depth studies of new payment methods, as research on their specific impacts remains limited due to their novelty. Studying these methods is vital to keep pace with the evolving payment ecosystem and deepen understanding of modern consumers’ spending habits.
8. What has the study found about the cashless effect?
A. It exists in acts of donation. B. It weakens with more cash use.
C. It links to the living cost crisis. D. It works in specific consumption.
9. Why did the team adopt the meta-analysis?
A. To solve the overspending problem. B. To compare cash and cashless payments.
C. To confirm factors causing the effect. D. To break the limitations of single studies.
10. What does the underlined word “jeopardising” in Paragraph 5 mean?
A. Risking. B. Preserving. C. Shifting. D. Boosting.
11. What can be inferred about new payments according to Schomburgk?
A. They need to be popularized. B. They are developing rapidly.
C. They should be further studied. D. They will affect spending habits.
【答案】8. D 9. D 10. A 11. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一项关于“无现金效应”的元分析研究,该研究发现消费者使用无现金支付方式时倾向于花费更多,并探讨了这一现象对个人、企业和政策制定者的启示。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“They’ve found that cashless payments lead people to spend more on status-signalling goods like jewellery, while this effect is notably absent in acts of donation or tipping. (他们发现,无现金支付会导致人们在珠宝等身份象征商品上花费更多,而这种效应在捐赠或给小费的行为中明显不存在)”可知,研究发现“无现金效应”存在于特定的消费中。故选D项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“Through this meta-analysis, we identified key factors that make the cashless effect stronger or weaker, which individual studies could not find. By doing this, we uncovered new key understandings that had often been overlooked by other researchers in individual studies. (通过这项元分析,我们确定了使无现金效应增强或减弱的关键因素,这是单项研究无法发现的。通过这样做,我们揭示了在单项研究中经常被其他研究人员忽视的新关键理解)”可知,研究团队采用元分析是为了打破单项研究的局限性。故选D项。
【10题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第五段中“Businesses should know failing to accept the cashless revolution might unintentionally be jeopardising profit potential (企业应该知道,不接受无现金革命可能会无意中jeopardising利润潜力)”以及前文所述无现金支付会导致消费者花费更多,因此不接受无现金支付可能会“损害”利润潜力。故划线词意为“使……冒风险;损害”,与“Risking”同义。故选A项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Schomburgk stresses a need for urgent in-depth studies of new payment methods, as research on their specific impacts remains limited due to their novelty. (Schomburgk强调,迫切需要对新的支付方式进行深入研究,因为由于其新颖性,关于其具体影响的研究仍然有限)”可知,新的支付方式需要进一步研究。故选C项。
D
What if a startup’s first team member was an AI agent, not a human? This question led Microsoft and NYU Stern’s Tech MBA program to a special project. Thirty students formed six startup teams, using Microsoft 365 Copilot (with the latest AI agent features) to rethink work — starting with AI from day one. Their goal: break old workflows, build “Frontier Firms,” and explore human-AI cooperation.
Frontier Firms aren’t just AI users — they’re built around AI. From the start, AI agents integrate into every aspect of the company, reshaping work processes, decision-making methods, and team structures to enhance human-AI partnership. The results were eye-opening. Top teams didn’t just use AI for tasks — they let it spark ideas: designing org charts, refining pitch decks, and creating sample business models. This revealed a new work style: AI as an active, growing team member.
The project had two phases. First, students used Copilot to simulate starting a startup — assigning roles, writing plans, and testing workflows. Then, they imagined how “AI-first” Frontier Firms might work, drawing blueprints for AI-powered organizations. Starting fresh helped: no old rules held them back.
Students found AI quickly became their “first hire,” taking on key roles like strategist or analyst. One team even let AI design an org chart by analyzing resumes. AI handled tasks like planning market strategies, writing job descriptions, and building financial models. This let human members take on more roles without stress and tackle work outside their expertise — speeding up progress from idea to action.
This project shows AI can be more than a tool — it can be a teammate or even a co-founder. It’s not a future dream, but a present reality reshaping work. To adapt, leaders need a new mindset: see AI as a partner, not just an aid.
12. What was the main goal of the special project?
A. To compare AI and human work efficiency.
B. To train students on using Microsoft 365 Copilot.
C. To experiment on the teamwork of humans and AI.
D. To help students learn about the latest AI version.
13. What role did the leading teams give AI?
A. Rare tool. B. Silent clerk. C. Final judge. D. Idea partner.
14. How did AI most help students move from idea to action?
A. Issuing grand visions. B. Boosting team spirits.
C. Running rapid analyses. D. Arranging team meet-ups.
15. Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text?
A. AI Agent Becomes the Startup’s First Hire
B. Put AI on the Founding Team from Day One
C. Argue for Human-only Leadership in a Team
D. Researchers Ask Who Really Runs a New-build Firm
【答案】12. C 13. D 14. C 15. B
【解析】

Growing up in rural Pennsylvania, I spent countless days wandering in the woods, where I deeply felt nature’s capacity to heal (治愈). ____16____ Back then, I had no idea that the affection would guide my career — let alone inspire me to pen a book linking nature with therapy (疗法).
My professional journey into the practice of ecotherapy began when I was introduced to the book Eco psychology: Restoring the Earth Healing the Mind. After obtaining my professional certificate in this field, over the following 30 years, I ran a private practice and worked with clients, witnessing huge impacts of bringing nature into the therapeutic process. ____17____
Meanwhile, I saw a gap in traditional psychotherapy. ____18____ While research proved nature’s mental health benefits, clinicians lacked a practical ecotherapy guide. This mismatch led me to set about writing Prescribing Nature to bridge the gap and help them integrate nature-based approaches into their therapeutic toolboxes.
____19____ The Overview covers ecotherapy’s theories and research on nature’s effects. The Practice offers actionable steps: bringing nature indoors, outdoor therapy and nature prescriptions (处方). The Practical considerations address challenges like special populations, plus a chapter on climate sufferings that clients rarely mention. Every section is based on both scientific research and my own decades of clinical experience to ensure credibility.
Prescribing Nature targets mainstream clinicians in traditional settings. ____20____ Thus, more clinicians will be empowered to use ecotherapy and more people will benefit from nature’s incredible healing power.
A. It stayed restricted to indoor settings.
B. That fueled my resolve to share this approach.
C. The book focuses on digital interventions for anxiety.
D. Close contact with nature has strong restorative effects.

【42题详解】
考查副词。句意同上。此空修饰形容词unchanged,需要副词修饰。故填actually。
【43题详解】
考查名词。句意:当处理大量的数字时,算盘实际上更快,因为它有比西方计算器更好的“键盘”。an amount of“许多;大量”,后接可数名词时,应该用复数,number为可数名词。故填numbers。

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。
Music had always been my safe place. Ever since I was six years old and first touched those black and white keys, the piano became my voice when words failed me. My parents said I would spend hours at our old upright piano, making up little tunes before I even learned to read notes properly. That’s when Mr. Wilson entered my life as my piano teacher. He was different from other teachers while others focused only on technique, Mr. Wilson always said, “Your playing may not be perfect, but it’s full of feeling.”
Last year, our city hosted its annual Youth Piano Competition. When Mr. Wilson suggested I participate, my hands turned cold with fear. “I’m not ready,” I protested (反对). But he smiled and said, “Music isn’t about being the best, but it’s about sharing your heart.” For three months, I practiced John Denver’s “Country Road” every day after school. Mr. Wilson helped me arrange a special piano version that started softly like a whisper and built to an emotional climax.
The day of the semifinals arrived. Backstage, I could hear the previous contestant playing flawlessly (完美无瑕地). When my name was called, my legs felt like jelly. The first few measures went well, but then at the most difficult transition, my mind went completely blank. My fingers kept moving automatically, but the wrong notes rang out like alarm bells. I managed to finish the piece, but the disappointed look on the judges’ faces said it all.
For weeks after the competition, I avoided the piano altogether. Then one rainy afternoon, I heard music floating up from downstairs. It was Mr. Wilson at our piano, playing my mistake-filled competition performance, note for wrong note. And yet... there was something strangely beautiful about it. The way he played those “wrong” notes with such certainty made them sound intentional, like they belonged there all along.
注意:(1)续写词数应为150个左右;(2)请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。
Paragraph 1:
I listened quietly as Mr. Wilson played my failed performance.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
A year later, the competition poster caught my eye.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Paragraph 1 (90 words):
I listened quietly as Mr. Wilson played my failed performance. Tears filled my eyes as Mr. Wilson played my failed performance, making every wrong note sound beautiful. “These aren’t mistakes,” he said gently, “they’re your heart speaking.” I shivered as the music surrounded me — the nervous parts now sounded honest, the rushed parts full of strength. Where I’d only heard failure before, he showed me the true feelings I’d put into the music without realizing. My breathing became uneven as I finally understood: being real was more important than being perfect. Tears fell onto the piano keys, shining in the light as they celebrated the surprising beauty of my imperfect but brave performance.
Paragraph 2 (77 words)
A year later, the competition poster caught my eye. “Will you try again?” Mr. Wilson asked. I smiled and nodded. This time, I played without fear. As the final notes faded, the audience erupted in applause — not the polite kind, but the warm. An elderly woman even wiped her eyes. Mr. Wilson patted me on the shoulder contently. It was then that I realized touching someone’s heart was worth more than any first prize. Good music isn’t about perfect notes, but about sharing true feelings.

Do you ever blend up a protein drink for breakfast, or grab a protein bar following an afternoon workout? If so, you are likely among the millions of people in search of more protein-rich diets. Protein-enriched products are found everywhere. But contrary to all the publicity that everyone needs more protein, most Americans get twice as much as they need. Many of us living in the most developed countries are buying into a myth of protein deficiency created by food companies and self-identified health experts. Global retail sales of protein supplement products reached an astonishing U.S. $18.9 billion in 2020.
But are we really in need of more protein? Physicians in the U.S., have never actually examined a patient with protein deficiency because simply by eating an adequate number of daily calories we are also most likely getting enough protein. In fact, Americans currently consume almost twice the National Academy of Medicine’s recommended daily intake of protein although the most desirable protein intake may vary depending on age and activity level. For example, if you’re a dedicated athlete you might need to consume higher quantities of protein. Generally, though, a 140-pound person should not exceed 120 grams of protein per day, particularly because a high protein diet can strain kidney and liver function and increase risks of developing heart disease and cancer.While fats and sugar have taken the beating in turns since over a century ago, protein has managed to remain our red-hot favorite. In the 1970s through the 1990s, protein products remained visible but moved back somewhat with the dietary spotlight firmly fixed on low-calorie, low-fat, sugar-free snack foods and beverages following the publication of studies linking sugar and saturated (饱和的) fat consumption to heart disease. Later research in 2003, however, suggested high-protein diets could aid in weight loss, and protein quickly regained its former nutrient-superstar status.
Now most people living in high-income nations are consuming enough protein. When we replace meals with a protein bar or drink, we also risk missing out on the rich sources of antioxidants (抗氧化剂), vitamins and many other benefits of real food.
4. Why have physicians in the U.S. never actually examined a patient with protein deficiency?
A. Americans can get sufficient protein just by eating adequate foods daily.
B. Americans can absorb the number of calories recommended by food experts.
C. Americans can purchase many kinds of protein-rich foods everywhere.
D. Americans can rely on food supplements to prevent protein deficiency.
5. What should people take into consideration in deciding on the most preferable protein intake?
A. How healthy they are and what food they eat.
B. How much protein they consume and what their body weight is.
C. How old they are and what activities they do.
D. How serious their protein deficiency is and what remedies they use.
6. What foods have been largely out of favor for more than a century?
A. Sugar-free snacks. B. Sugary and fatty foods.
C. Both red and white meats. D. Protein-rich foods.
7. What does the author imply people in developed countries should do to keep healthy?
A. Replace meals with protein bars. B. Eat vegetarian diets.
C. Consume enough protein daily. D. Enjoy natural food.
C
Consumers rely on various ways to pay daily expenses. The problem is that they tend to spend more with cashless payment methods in comparison to cash. This striking cashless effect has recently been confirmed by researchers from the University of Adelaide.
Led by PhD Student Lachlan Schomburgk, the research team analysed 71 published and unpublished studies from 17 countries, including data from more than 11,000 unique participants. They’ve found that cashless payments lead people to spend more on status-signalling goods like jewellery, while this effect is notably absent in acts of donation or tipping.
“Through this meta-analysis, we identified key factors that make the cashless effect stronger or weaker, which individual studies could not find. By doing this, we uncovered new key understandings that had often been overlooked by other researchers in individual studies.” Schomburgk explains.
The findings indicate that consumers should be mindful of how they pay for goods or services, as this helps them spend less, especially critical in the current cost-of-living crisis. To avoid overspending, they’re advised to carry cash instead of cards whenever possible as a self-control method. When using cash, they count and hand over notes and coins, making spending more noticeable. If nothing is physically handed over, it’s easy to lose track of how much is spent.
The study also provides useful insights for businesses and policymakers. “Businesses should know failing to accept the cashless revolution might unintentionally be jeopardising profit potential,” Schomburgk says. “And policymakers should communicate to individuals unfamiliar with cashless payments, such as people who don’t have bank accounts, about the possibility of cashless methods to lead to overspending.”
Schomburgk stresses a need for urgent in-depth studies of new payment methods, as research on their specific impacts remains limited due to their novelty. Studying these methods is vital to keep pace with the evolving payment ecosystem and deepen understanding of modern consumers’ spending habits.
8. What has the study found about the cashless effect?
A. It exists in acts of donation. B. It weakens with more cash use.
C. It links to the living cost crisis. D. It works in specific consumption.
9. Why did the team adopt the meta-analysis?
A. To solve the overspending problem. B. To compare cash and cashless payments.
C. To confirm factors causing the effect. D. To break the limitations of single studies.
10. What does the underlined word “jeopardising” in Paragraph 5 mean?
A. Risking. B. Preserving. C. Shifting. D. Boosting.
11. What can be inferred about new payments according to Schomburgk?
A. They need to be popularized. B. They are developing rapidly.
C. They should be further studied. D. They will affect spending habits.
D
What if a startup’s first team member was an AI agent, not a human? This question led Microsoft and NYU Stern’s Tech MBA program to a special project. Thirty students formed six startup teams, using Microsoft 365 Copilot (with the latest AI agent features) to rethink work — starting with AI from day one. Their goal: break old workflows, build “Frontier Firms,” and explore human-AI cooperation.
Frontier Firms aren’t just AI users — they’re built around AI. From the start, AI agents integrate into every aspect of the company, reshaping work processes, decision-making methods, and team structures to enhance human-AI partnership. The results were eye-opening. Top teams didn’t just use AI for tasks — they let it spark ideas: designing org charts, refining pitch decks, and creating sample business models. This revealed a new work style: AI as an active, growing team member.
The project had two phases. First, students used Copilot to simulate starting a startup — assigning roles, writing plans, and testing workflows. Then, they imagined how “AI-first” Frontier Firms might work, drawing blueprints for AI-powered organizations. Starting fresh helped: no old rules held them back.
Students found AI quickly became their “first hire,” taking on key roles like strategist or analyst. One team even let AI design an org chart by analyzing resumes. AI handled tasks like planning market strategies, writing job descriptions, and building financial models. This let human members take on more roles without stress and tackle work outside their expertise — speeding up progress from idea to action.
This project shows AI can be more than a tool — it can be a teammate or even a co-founder. It’s not a future dream, but a present reality reshaping work. To adapt, leaders need a new mindset: see AI as a partner, not just an aid.
12. What was the main goal of the special project?
A. To compare AI and human work efficiency.
B. To train students on using Microsoft 365 Copilot.
C. To experiment on the teamwork of humans and AI.
D. To help students learn about the latest AI version.
13. What role did the leading teams give AI?
A. Rare tool. B. Silent clerk. C. Final judge. D. Idea partner.
14. How did AI most help students move from idea to action?
A. Issuing grand visions. B. Boosting team spirits.
C. Running rapid analyses. D. Arranging team meet-ups.
15. Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text?
A. AI Agent Becomes the Startup’s First Hire
B. Put AI on the Founding Team from Day One
C. Argue for Human-only Leadership in a Team
D. Researchers Ask Who Really Runs a New-build Firm

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。
Growing up in rural Pennsylvania, I spent countless days wandering in the woods, where I deeply felt nature’s capacity to heal (治愈). ____16____ Back then, I had no idea that the affection would guide my career — let alone inspire me to pen a book linking nature with therapy (疗法).
My professional journey into the practice of ecotherapy began when I was introduced to the book Eco psychology: Restoring the Earth, Healing the Mind. After obtaining my professional certificate in this field, over the following 30 years, I ran a private practice and worked with clients, witnessing huge impacts of bringing nature into the therapeutic process. ____17____
Meanwhile, I saw a gap in traditional psychotherapy. ____18____ While research proved nature’s mental health benefits, clinicians lacked a practical ecotherapy guide. This mismatch led me to set about writing Prescribing Nature to bridge the gap and help them integrate nature-based approaches into their therapeutic toolboxes.
____19____ The Overview covers ecotherapy’s theories and research on nature’s effects. The Practice offers actionable steps: bringing nature indoors, outdoor therapy and nature prescriptions (处方). The Practical considerations address challenges like special populations, plus a chapter on climate sufferings that clients rarely mention. Every section is based on both scientific research and my own decades of clinical experience to ensure credibility.
Prescribing Nature targets mainstream clinicians in traditional settings. ____20____ Thus, more clinicians will be empowered to use ecotherapy and more people will benefit from nature’s incredible healing power.
A. It stayed restricted to indoor settings.
B. That fueled my resolve to share this approach.
C. The book focuses on digital interventions for anxiety.
D. Close contact with nature has strong restorative effects.
E. The experiences planted in my heart a seed of love for it.
F. I structured the book into three distinct sections for clarity.
G. I hope it’ll join the growing body of literature on ecopsychology.

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。
Music had always been my safe place. Ever since I was six years old and first touched those black and white keys, the piano became my voice when words failed me. My parents said I would spend hours at our old upright piano, making up little tunes before I even learned to read notes properly. That’s when Mr. Wilson entered my life as my piano teacher. He was different from other teachers while others focused only on technique, Mr. Wilson always said, “Your playing may not be perfect, but it’s full of feeling.”
Last year, our city hosted its annual Youth Piano Competition. When Mr. Wilson suggested I participate, my hands turned cold with fear. “I’m not ready,” I protested (反对). But he smiled and said, “Music isn’t about being the best, but it’s about sharing your heart.” For three months, I practiced John Denver’s “Country Road” every day after school. Mr. Wilson helped me arrange a special piano version that started softly like a whisper and built to an emotional climax.
The day of the semifinals arrived. Backstage, I could hear the previous contestant playing flawlessly (完美无瑕地). When my name was called, my legs felt like jelly. The first few measures went well, but then at the most difficult transition, my mind went completely blank. My fingers kept moving automatically, but the wrong notes rang out like alarm bells. I managed to finish the piece, but the disappointed look on the judges’ faces said it all.
For weeks after the competition I avoided the piano altogether. Then one rainy afternoon, I heard music floating up from downstairs. It was Mr. Wilson at our piano, playing my mistake-filled competition performance, note for wrong note. And yet... there was something strangely beautiful about it. The way he played those “wrong” notes with such certainty made them sound intentional, like they belonged there all along.
注意:(1)续写词数应为150个左右;(2)请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。
Paragraph 1:
I listened quietly as Mr. Wilson played my failed performance.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
A year later, the competition poster caught my eye.
