D It's probably not surprising that a new study has linked added sugar consumption to an increased risk of heart disease,but a less expected discovery is that those who have an occasional sweet treat appear to be at a reduced risk of cardiovascular(心血管的)problems.Eating a pastry,cake,or chocolate bar every so often may be better for your heart than a"zero-sugar"diet,which might cause nutrient deficiencies and energy crashes,etc.,according to the research team from Lund University in Sweden The researchers looked at records of 69,705 people in Swedish public health databases.The participants,aged between 45 and 83,were quizzed on their diet and lifestyle in 1997 and 2009,then tracked up to 2019.Sugar intake was grouped into three categories:sugary toppings(like honey), sweet treats(like pastries and sweets),and sweetened beverages (like fizzy drinks).Type of added sugar consumed was then cross-referenced ()against seven types of cardiovascular diseases, including strokes and heart attacks,with several other risk factors(such as smoking)accounted for. The associations varied between sugar type and heart disease type.Overall though,the lowest risks across all cardiovascular diseases were found in those who limited themselves to a sweet treat every now and again. There's a lot to consider when it comes to the different ways in which we get our sugar:what other foods and drinks we have with the sugar,for example,as well as how regularly we include added sugar in our diet."Liquid sugars,found in sweetened beverages,typically provide less satiety than solid forms-they make you feel less full-potentially leading to overconsumption,"says Janzi."Context also matters-treats are often enjoyed in social settings or special occasions,while sweetened beverages might be consumed more regularly." Bear in mind that these findings hint at relationships,rather than proving cause and effect.They also don't factor in other health consequences-like damage to teeth for example-and need to be 5 第19页，共42页 taken in context with what we already know about sugar. 32.What is the less expected discovery of a new study? 第： A.A zero-sugar diet proves to be the most healthy one. 第 B.A sweet tooth is the most likely to develop heart diseases. 阅 C.Eating sweets once in a while may do good to your heart. 今 D.Consuming too much sugar increases risks of heart diseases. 33.How do researchers conduct the study? s] B.By doing experiments. 力 A.By consulting doctors. C.By analyzing databases. D.By interviewing patients. 34.What does the underlined word"satiety"in paragraph 4 refer to? A.Fullness B.Sweetness. C.Comfort. D.Relief. 35.What does the last paragraph mainly tell us? A.The benefits of the findings. B.The limitations of the findings. C.The application of the findings. D.The further research of the findings 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Are all the emails and social media notifications making you anxious or getting you down?s having to learn yet another new piece of software stressing you out?Are the boundaries between family life and work life unclear because of technology?36The term is used to describe the negative psychological effect that using new technologies can have. Though many people may not be familiar with technostress,they probably are familiar with the feelings of having too much technology in their lives.Technostress can be broken down into a few subcategories including techno-overload,techno-complexity and techno-invasion.37 Technostress may make people feel down or burned-out and even suffer from depression.Some may feel tension in the body,which can lead to headaches and back pain.38 That is why dealing with technostress is vital to overall health. 39 Acknowledge that it's a sign of strength and courage to recognize a mental health challenge and take steps to manage it.Experts encourage people struggling with technostress to take steps in the workplace to get involved in how technology may be used. Taking time each day to get outside is also a great way.By all accounts,there's almost nothing that aids in stress management so much as a few hours spent in the park,the woods or the mountains. 40Hours spent on the computer may be perceived as stressful but the stressors can be seen as more bearable if on this day one can look forward to a walk in nature.Just go outside and nature never disappoints. A.All of them can have significant effects on health. B.It's not a medical problem but can lead to diseases. C.Such time is one ready resource available to most people. D.In the connected world,most people continuously multitask. E.You may be experiencing a phenomenon known as technostress. F.Engaging in activities that are grounding and centering is helpful. G.The first thing to do is to accept that it's normal to have stress from technology. 6 第20页，共42页 第三部分语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节完形填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选 项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 For most 12-year-olds,any free time after school is spent hanging out with friends,competing in sports,or playing video games.But Alejandro Buxton has another 41each week:making all natural candles that he42online and at a local mall.

The locker room was unusually quiet that night.No one spoke as we changed out of our uniforms. I sat on the wooden bench,staring at the number 23 on my jersey,remembering how proud I'd been when I first earned it three years ago.My fingers traced the slightly worn edges where I'd pulled it on and off countless times. "Hey,Mike,"Coach Johnson's voice broke the silence."Can I talk to you for a minute?" I followed him to his office,the weight of the loss still heavy in my chest. "Mike,"he began,his voice softer than usual,"I know tonight didn't go the way we wanted,but I want you to know something."He leaned forward,his elbows on the desk."You've been the heart of this team for three years.Your leadership,your dedication-it's been remarkable to watch." I opened my mouth to protest,but he held up his hand. "Basketball is about more than just winning games,"he continued."It's about the lessons we learn,the character we build.And you,Mike,have grown into an exceptional young man through this spot.” As I left the locker room that night,I noticed a group of students waiting outside.Among them was Emily Carter,a quiet girl from my English class who I'd partnered with on a project last semester. “Mike,”she said hesitantly,stepping forward.“We just wanted to say..thank you..” I blinked,confused."Thank me?For what?" "For always playing with heart,"she said,her voice gaining confidence."Win or lose,you never gave up.You inspired us to keep trying in our own lives,even when things get tough." The other students nodded in agreement,and in that moment,I realized that maybe Coach Johnson was right.Maybe basketball was about more than just the score at the end of the game. 注意： 1.续写词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 I stood there,my basketball bag slung over my shoulder,completely astonished by their words. When I got home,the porch light was on,and I could see my parents waiting through the living room window. 9 第23页，共42页
