She not only uses TikTok to promote her music, but also posts songs to get feedback (反馈) from her followers. “It’s been cool to engage with people that way.” said Kays, who has been using online platforms to realize her music dream. Now, she is famous on TikTok with about 1.3 million followers. She released (发布) her song Remember That Night? in November 2020. The post blew up, getting almost three million views in a matter of days. Kays has loved singing since she was young. At 11, she got a guitar from her mother and then started to sing while playing. Gradually, people started asking her to play at restaurants and she also started to post some live videos on YouTube, gaining her more and more followers. At 17, Kays turned to songwriting to help her deal with the confusion in life and serve as an outlet for her thoughts and feelings. “I feel very lucky to have the opportunity to release songs and that all these people are listening to them online,” said Kays.”It’s been amazing.” Different from other content creators who update their content frequently, Kays updates on a weekly basis and only posts videos about her songs and related stories, such as singing, playing the guitar or ukulele, shooting music videos. Her videos are always simple, and the recording process is pretty simple too: she edits the vocals and video in her room. Now, Kays has signed with a music company. In Kays’ eyes, people like her songs and videos because she writes about life experiences and emotions of the youth. “I just sing and share my feelings about divorced parents, body image, loneliness and mental health,” said Kays. “I want more people to know they’re not alone with the struggles in their lives.” 24. What does the underlined phrase “blew up” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Was almost ignored. B. Was widely attacked. C. Caused heated debate. D. Became popular suddenly. 25.

Different Ways to Use TikTok Well C In 2026, digital technology is deeply integrated (融合) into all aspects of social life, and Chinese traditional festivals are embracing (采纳) digital innovation while keeping their traditional core connotation (内涵). This new change not only makes festival celebrations more convenient and diverse, but also attracts more young people to pay attention to and inherit traditional festival culture. First, digital technology breaks the geographical limitations of festival reunions. For young people who work and study in other cities, “cloud reunion” has become a popular way to celebrate festivals in 2026. They can have video calls with their families, watch the Spring Festival Gala online together, and even share the New Year’s Eve dinner through live broadcast. This digital form relieves the homesickness of people who cannot return home, and also keeps the warmth of family reunion. Second, digital technology enriches the forms of traditional festival customs. The traditional custom of sending red envelopes has evolved into digital red envelopes, which can be sent with just a click on mobile payment platforms. Lantern riddles solving, a classic custom of the Lantern Festival, is moved to online platforms, where people can guess riddles anytime and anywhere and get small electronic prizes. Folk performances such as dragon dance and shadow puppetry are also live-streamed on short video platforms, allowing millions of people to watch and appreciate them for free. Third, digital technology promotes the international spread of traditional festival culture. Many cultural and museum institutions have launched online international exhibitions of Chinese traditional festivals in 2026, introducing the origin, customs and cultural connotation of festivals to foreign friends through 3D technology and multilingual short videos. A large number of young Chinese people also create short videos of traditional festival celebrations and post them on international social media, making Chinese festival culture known to more people around the world. It is important to note that digital innovation is only a tool to enrich festival forms, and the core of traditional festivals such as family affection, unity and gratitude will never change. The integration of digital technology and traditional festivals makes Chinese festival culture more vibrant (充满活力的) in the new era. 28. What is the popular way for young people in other cities to celebrate festivals in 2026? A. Holding small parties with colleagues B. Traveling to scenic spots alone C. Having “cloud reunion” with families via digital technology D. Participating in local folk festival activities 29. Which of the following shows traditional festivals in a digital way? A. Making hand-written Spring Festival couplets B. Sending digital red envelopes via mobile payment platforms C. Making traditional zongzi with family members D. Watching dragon dance performances on the spot 30. How does digital technology promote the international spread of Chinese festival culture? A. By holding large-scale offline folk performances in foreign countries B. By launching online international festivals exhibitions with digital technology C. By organizing Chinese people to celebrate traditional festivals abroad D. By selling traditional festival handcrafts to foreign tourists 31. What is the main idea of this passage? A. The history and traditional customs of Chinese traditional festivals B. The influence of digital technology on people’s daily life in 2026 C. The integration of digital technology and Chinese traditional festivals in 2026 D. The differences between traditional and digital festival celebrations D Have you ever savored the convenience of takeout? In today’s fast-paced world, busy students and professionals increasingly rely on delivered meals packed in plastic containers — quick fixes for lunch breaks or late-night cravings. However, a new Chinese study reveals that frequent use of plastic takeout containers may elevate congestive heart failure risk by affecting gut (肠道) bacteria and causing inflammation (炎症). The research combines human population analysis and animal experiments to investigate how plastic chemicals impact heart health. The study used two main steps to explore the link between plastic containers and heart disease. First, researchers checked the plastic takeout container use of over 3,000 people in China and compared it to their heart health records. They found that people who frequently used plastic containers had a higher risk of heart failure. Next, they tested this connection on rats. Scientists prepared water by boiling it in plastic containers for 1, 5, or 15 minutes to imitate real-life situation like making hot drinks. When plastic is heated, it gives off tiny harmful particles — previous studies found microwaved plastic containers can give off millions of these particles per square centimeter. The rats drank this contaminated water for months. By examining the rats’ waste, the researchers discovered changes in gut bacteria and increased chemicals related to inflammation and damage to rats’ heart tissues. Surprisingly, heating the containers for 1 minute or 15 minutes caused no difference in harm severity. While the study didn’t identify exactly which chemicals in plastic caused the problems, it highlighted known harmful substances like BPA, which are common in food packaging and linked to cancer and other health issues. This research emphasizes the dangers of heated plastic and its potential impact on heart health. This study adds urgency to reducing plastic food contact. Public health experts recommend avoiding microwaving plastics, using glass or stainless-steel alternatives, and transferring takeout to non-plastic containers. Though individual avoidance remains challenging, the findings highlight systemic needs for safer food packaging policies. With over 20,000 chemicals in plastics — many untested for long-term effects, researchers call for stricter industry regulations to protect circulatory health. 32. Why does the author mention the takeout at the beginning? A. To describe a phenomenon. B. To introduce the topic. C. To show the benefits of takeout. D. To promote a kind of life style. 33. According to the research findings, which is NOT related to heart failure risks? A. The length of plastic’s heating time. B. The frequency of exposure to plastic. C. The materials of the containers. D. The temperature of the plastic containers. 34. What is the last paragraph mainly about? A. Additional evidence for the research results. B. Practical guidance of the research findings. C. A further explanation of the research methods. D. A potential limitation of the research process. 35. What’s the author’s attitude towards the study? A. Unclear. B. Critical. C. Doubtful. D. Supportive. 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。 Every culture has its own music. 36 . All types of music have one thing in common: it brings people together.

There were 33 students in my new class, and most people weren’t very interested in a shy new boy. Roy was kind to me. He often invited me to join his particular group and we became good friends.
