I've been eying the latest bottle for months, dreaming of its biggest screen and faster camera. I woke up early. Score a deal online, but write when I click to buy, the website crashed. Frustrated, I headed to the mall, figuring I get the phone in person. On the way, I passed a tiny pop up repair shop. IT was run by two teams. Curious, I held up my old phone. Its screen was correct, and IT sometimes froze and ask if they could help for just ten bucks. They swapped the broken screen for a recent ycl one when they handed IT back, my broken phone felt brand new. That night, I used my fixed phone to film my little sisters dance. Recycle one small repair saves me hundreds of dollars, and let me hold onto a precious memory. So maybe this black friday taught me something. The real upgrade isn't the newest model. It's choosing to see the value in what we already have and using IT with fresh love. Good morning, everyone. Last week, I was dead set on buying a new phone for black friday.

Between the two versions, I highly recommend the first one, “There is no Planet B.” I prefer this design for two main reasons. Visually, the poster features a crying and sweating Earth, with factory chimneys emitting toxic smoke on its top. It vividly highlights the severe environmental crises we are facing, such as global warming and air pollution. More importantly, the slogan itself is brilliant. By cleverly playing on the phrase “Plan B”, it sends a powerful warning to the public: our planet is irreplaceable, and we have no backup home to escape to. Therefore, we must stop the destruction before it’s too late. I believe this thought-provoking poster will surely leave a lasting impression on the judges. Best of luck! Yours, Li Hua Possible Version 2 Dear Chris, Glad to hear you’re participating in the World Earth Day poster contest! Both versions are fantastic, but I favor the second one, “OUR ACTIONS, OUR FUTURE.” What makes this poster stand out is the perfect combination of its image and slogan. In terms of the image, it presents a hopeful scene where a pair of hands gently holds the Earth. On top of the globe, leafy trees and a bright sun vividly symbolize a green, sustainable future. Moreover, the slogan perfectly matches the drawing. Written entirely in bold capitals, the words create a strong impact, conveying a highly positive message that the destiny of our planet literally lies in our own hands. I’m sure this inspiring design will shine in the contest and motivate more people to take concrete eco-friendly actions. Good luck! Yours, Li Hua 第二节（满分25分） One possible version Paragraph 1: One day, Emily handed me an application form. I froze, my eyes wide as I took in the official entry for the body - building show. Fear and doubt surged — just months ago, the thought of stepping on a stage would have terrified me. Yet, as I held the paper, I felt something shift inside. Emily’s clam eyes met mine, and she said softy, “You’ve earned this.” Those words, combined with every early morning, every sweaty workout, every disciplined meal I had endured, whispered a quiet truth; I was stronger than I had believed. My trembling hands steadied, and my heart pounded with a new kind of courage. With a deep breath, I signed my name, aware that this act was less about the competition and more about honoring the transformation I had fought for. Paragraph 2: Her weeks of preparation, the long-awaited day finally came. Waking before dawn, I entered the quiet gym, where only the clatter of weights and Emily's guiding voice filled the space. I pushed past exhaustion, feeling the burn in my muscles not as pain but as a sign of growth, carefully measuring protein, carbs, and fats to fuel each session. Emily corrected my rigid form, timed my breaks, and celebrated every small victory, reminding me that transformation came gradually, step by step. On competition day, standing on stage after months of sweat and discipline, I felt a surge of pride and clarity: strength was not just physical, but also perseverance, courage, and — most importantly — the ability to care for myself, reclaiming both my body and my life one choice at a time. 二、听力原文 Text1 W: The bus is stuck again.

A watched pot never boils bur time has wings when you're having fun.The familiar saying has a basis in solid science--our sense of time does expand.and contract depending on the way we experience the world.Even delicate visual features can affect how we perceive time.New research shows more memorable images seem to last longer. Martin Wiener,head of the research,says the finding helps reveal how the brain's time-bending strategy allows it to process and remember more information.While what is actually happening in the brain when 高二下英语第二次阶段适应性练习 第5页/共12页 time seems to expand remains unclear,scientists suspect ii may have something to do with helping the brain process more information within a limited period of time. This is especially relevant for the brain's visual system which,subjected to information overload,has to rank in order of importance.allowing for limited resources Recent research has showed some images are more naturally memorable than others To understand how this memorability of an image.along with a few simpler visual features such as scene size and disorder,might relate to our subjective sense of time.Wiener and bis colleagues conducted related experiments.in which subjects were shown images with varying duration were asked to categorize whether the length of time on the screen was either"short!"or"long,he next day they were given a surprise memory test to see which images they recalled seeing. The researchers found larger scene sizes seemed to extend time while more disorderly scenes seemed to contract it. Besides the subjects perceived more memorable images as lasting longer even if they were all presented for the same amount of time.To find the underlying factor,the team fed the same memorability-ranked images to a neural (network modeled after the brain's visual system and found more memorable images were processed faster. The explanation for why our brain's faster processing would slow time is that it is increasing the amount of information the brain can take in at once.Limited resources to process information may act as a sort of bottleneck,which the brain can widen when it needs to absorb more information,thus extending time. 28.What does the saying"A watched pot never boils"describe? A.The unnoticed passage of time v B.The feeling that time hangs heavy?

The accepted wisdom tells us progress comes from small,consistent changes that accumulate over time.Consistency has is place.But there's another dimension to transformation we rarely discuss:the catalytic (power of intense productivity bursts.It's this more intense temporary state of absorption that is key.. Productivity experts often advocate sustainable habits and warn against the dangers of going too hard.Bur neuroscience reveals something fascinating:Our brains respond strongly to intensity Our brains are highly malleable;they change,sometimes in dramatic ways.lo reflect new acquisition of skills and knowledge.Researchers studied London taxi drivers preparing for a test that involved memorizing 75,000 streets.When examining the brains of these taxi drivers before and after this intensive study period.they discovered something remarkable: The posterior hippocampus,crucial for spatial navigation,physically enlarges. This finding points to a broader principle in human neuroscience:Transformation often requires crossing intensity levels that moderate effort simply can't reach.Al the level of the brain,intense learning looks very different than the slow,consistent gains we're more familiar with.Research finds that during periods of intense focus,our brains exhibit transient hypofrontality.The prefrontal cortex()largely responsible for self-monitoring,tends to quiet down, mirroring what is often seen in"flow states".where the boundary between self and task fades away Most of us live in maintenance mode We do enough not to lose ground but rarely enough to truly advance Maybe it's time we stopped feeling guilty about our occasional obsessions and started seeing them for what they are:the catalysts that make our steady progress meaningful. 32.What does the scene presented in Paragraph I indicate?
