“Singing is the start of music. By singing, we make ourselves physically part of music and music part of us,” writes composer Andrew Ford, host of The Music Show.
Songs have a powerful effect on us. Has anyone discovered the joy of singing in a choir? Mary works as a busy teacher, and choir practice nights are simply her “sanity”. “There are nights when even I don’t feel like going to choir but by the time we’ve finished, I’m glad I came,” said Mary.
Research says choiring is really good for you. By monitoring the health signs of members of a choir, Bjorn Vickoff at Sweden University discovered the singers’ hearts started to beat in step with their breathing. There seemed to be a wave of air moving through the group, making them feel connected as one. Research has proved that choiring has comforting effects similar to those that come from breathing exercises in yoga.
Singing also produces hormones (荷尔蒙) and other happy chemicals, fighting against depression and loneliness. Singers have been found to have lower levels of stress after choiring. And a later study also found that singing relieves anxiety and that group singing can be especially beneficial to the health of older adults.
At the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival, choir after choir was put on stage by singers with no big names. But this is real music to Tony Backhouse’s ears. The choirmaster spent three decades in Australia founding and working with choral groups. “If I were asked to redesign the Australian educational system, I would start by insisting that group singing become a central part of the daily routine. I believe it builds character and, more than anything else, encourage a taste for cooperation with others,” said Tony. For him, the meaning of group singing is “cooperation, rather than competition. Singing teaches us to listen, which is a great gift. In my community choir, it’s about creating something amazing together, and we really aim to make every rehearsal a thing of joy and beauty.”
4. What does the underlined “sanity” probably mean?
A. Relief. B. Routine. C. Duty. D. Suffering.
5. According to Bjorn Vickoff’s study, what caused the change of the singers’ heart rates?
A. Their long-term practice. B. The monitoring machine.
C. The rhythm of their breathing. D. The airflow condition on the stage.
6. How does choiring benefit singers?
A. It lowers stress level.
B. It raises the singers’ heart rate.
C. It builds physical strength.
D. It reduces chemicals in their bodies.
7. What can we infer from Tony Backhouse’s words about choiring?
A. It’s a recent educational trend in Australia.
B. It is especially helpful for singers with no big names.
C. It should replace other subjects in the educational system.
D. It helps students develop good qualities and teamwork spirit.

For many, travel isn’t just about the destination — it’s about making the most of the journey. However, for a lot of people, the journey is often ruined by an uncomfortable experience often accompanied by vomiting, known as motion sickness. If you’ve ever felt the unwelcome urge to vomit while reading or using your device in a moving vehicle, you’re not alone. Recognizing this common issue, a company has stepped up to offer a revolutionary solution: the Vehicle Motion Cues feature.
Motion sickness occurs when there is a disconnection between what your eyes see and what your body feels. When you’re in a moving vehicle, your body senses motion through its vestibular system (the inner ear), but if your eyes are focused on a still screen that doesn’t reflect this movement, the brain receives mixed signals. This sensory conflict can lead to dizziness, nausea, and overall discomfort — symptoms all too familiar to motion sickness sufferers.
The new Vehicle Motion Cues feature is designed to bridge this gap and bring relief to those likely to experience motion sickness. This revolutionary feature works by displaying animated dots, around the edges of your screen, which move at the same time and speed as the motion of your vehicle. These moving cues help keep the motion your body feels in line with what your eyes see, effectively reducing the sensory mismatch that causes motion sickness.
The magic lies in the simplicity and effectiveness. The animated dots move in consistency with the vehicle’s motion, providing a visual representation of the movement your body is experiencing. By matching the visual input with the physical sensations of motion, your brain is less likely to experience the confusion that leads to sickness.
Early reports and user feedback indicate that Vehicle Motion Cues is receiving high praise for its effectiveness. So next time you embark on a journey, whether short or long, remember that the company has got your back — or rather, your brain — helping you make the most of every mile with ease and comfort.
8. Which type of people can be interested in Vehicle Motion Cues?
A. Frequent travelers. B. Book lovers. C. Vehicle operators. D. Sport scientists.
9. What is paragraph 2 mainly about?
A. The principle of the new design. B. The cause of motion sickness.
C. The functions of the new design. D. The symptoms of motion sickness.
10. By displaying animated dots around the screen, Vehicle Motion Cues is able to ________.
A. ease sensory conflicts in the brain B. tell the mismatched physical sensations
C. balance the movement of our eyes and body D. increase the effectiveness of vehicle motion
11. Which can be the best title of the passage?
A. Make the Most of Your Journey: A Company Bridges the Gap
B. Find the Magic of a Moving Vehicle: A Company’s Got Your Back
C. Enjoy Your Reading: A Company Offers a Revolutionary Solution
D. Say Goodbye to Motion Sickness: A Company Introduces Its New Design
D
When planning my wedding, I was determined not to get caught up in the “perfect day”, but to have a relaxed, informal celebration. My husband and I ended up having a lovely time.
“Pursuit of perfection is a prison,” says Moya Sarner, an NHS psychotherapist. Many of us are driven by the unconscious (下意识的) wish that if we could just have the perfect body, the perfect job and the perfect family, then we would be happy. For that reason, it can be one of the most significant barriers to happiness in life.
The psychoanalyst Donald Winnicott wrote about the importance of the “good enough mother” who meets her baby’s needs timely, but is not perfect. He said perfect is harmful. To meet every desire immediately, to pass the toy straight away whenever it is demanded slows down a baby’s growth, robbing them of the opportunity to feel frustrated (沮丧的) and learn to crawl to get the toy for themselves.
Winnicott believed that while perfection is not a virtue, tolerance of imperfection is. If we cannot develop the capacity to tolerate imperfection in ourselves and in those around us, we can have no self-confidence, no sustainable relationships and no fulfilling career. If we’re always trying to build something called a perfect life, we aren’t really living the one we’re in.
How do I know all this? I am a perfectionist in recovery. I’ve started to recognize my intolerance of imperfection — my need for certain things to be exactly as I would like them to be, from the way my husband chops his onions to my terror of being late — and it has made a huge difference to my relationship and my parenting. How can you be a good partner if you expect everyone else to fit your own narrow expectations? How can your child grow if they sense that they always need to color precisely inside the lines you’ve drawn out for them?
We need to go further than tolerating imperfections. We need to learn to appreciate their humanity and beauty. Imperfections are why people will pay a calligrapher to handwrite invitations when a computer can produce a flawless (完美的) version of the same script for less money and in less time. So for a more delicious life, and ultimately a better one, I choose imperfectionism.
12. How does the author introduce the topic?
A. By presenting a successful ceremony. B. By showing her firm determination.
C. By describing her personal experience. D. By introducing her perfect marriage.
13. What can we learn from the example of the “good enough mother”?
A. Raising a child brings a mother much joy. B. Pursuing perfection is the duty of mothers.
C. Meeting babies’ demands is very challenging. D. Responding instantly impacts babies’ growth.
14. What is the function of the two questions at the end of Paragraph 5?
A. To shift topics. B. To make assumptions. C. To arouse interest. D. To encourage thinking.
15. Which of the following might the author approve of?
A. A miss is as good as a mile. B. Haste makes waste.
C. Close enough is good enough. D. Practice makes perfect.

When you’re in a moving vehicle, your body senses motion through its vestibular system (the inner ear), but if your eyes are focused on a still screen that doesn’t reflect this movement, the brain receives mixed signals. This sensory conflict can lead to dizziness, nausea, and overall discomfort — symptoms all too familiar to motion sickness sufferers.
The new Vehicle Motion Cues feature is designed to bridge this gap and bring relief to those likely to experience motion sickness. This revolutionary feature works by displaying animated dots, around the edges of your screen, which move at the same time and speed as the motion of your vehicle. These moving cues help keep the motion your body feels in line with what your eyes see, effectively reducing the sensory mismatch that causes motion sickness.
The magic lies in the simplicity and effectiveness. The animated dots move in consistency with the vehicle’s motion, providing a visual representation of the movement your body is experiencing. By matching the visual input with the physical sensations of motion, your brain is less likely to experience the confusion that leads to sickness.
Early reports and user feedback indicate that Vehicle Motion Cues is receiving high praise for its effectiveness. So next time you embark on a journey, whether short or long, remember that the company has got your back — or rather, your brain — helping you make the most of every mile with ease and comfort.
8. Which type of people can be interested in Vehicle Motion Cues?
A. Frequent travelers. B. Book lovers. C. Vehicle operators. D. Sport scientists.
9. What is paragraph 2 mainly about?
A. The principle of the new design. B. The cause of motion sickness.

10. By displaying animated dots around the screen, Vehicle Motion Cues is able to ________.
A. ease sensory conflicts in the brain B. tell the mismatched physical sensations
C. balance the movement of our eyes and body D. increase the effectiveness of vehicle motion

D
When planning my wedding, I was determined not to get caught up in the “perfect day”, but to have a relaxed, informal celebration. My husband and I ended up having a lovely time.
“Pursuit of perfection is a prison,” says Moya Sarner, an NHS psychotherapist. Many of us are driven by the unconscious (下意识的) wish that if we could just have the perfect body, the perfect job and the perfect family, then we would be happy. For that reason, it can be one of the most significant barriers to happiness in life.
The psychoanalyst Donald Winnicott wrote about the importance of the “good enough mother” who meets her baby’s needs timely, but is not perfect. He said perfect is harmful. To meet every desire immediately, to pass the toy straight away whenever it is demanded slows down a baby’s growth, robbing them of the opportunity to feel frustrated (沮丧的) and learn to crawl to get the toy for themselves.
Winnicott believed that while perfection is not a virtue, tolerance of imperfection is. If we cannot develop the capacity to tolerate imperfection in ourselves and in those around us, we can have no self-confidence, no sustainable relationships and no fulfilling career. If we’re always trying to build something called a perfect life, we aren’t really living the one we’re in.
How do I know all this? I am a perfectionist in recovery. I’ve started to recognize my intolerance of imperfection — my need for certain things to be exactly as I would like them to be, from the way my husband chops his onions to my terror of being late — and it has made a huge difference to my relationship and my parenting. How can you be a good partner if you expect everyone else to fit your own narrow expectations? How can your child grow if they sense that they always need to color precisely inside the lines you’ve drawn out for them?
We need to go further than tolerating imperfections. We need to learn to appreciate their humanity and beauty. Imperfections are why people will pay a calligrapher to handwrite invitations when a computer can produce a flawless (完美的) version of the same script for less money and in less time. So for a more delicious life, and ultimately a better one, I choose imperfectionism.
12. How does the author introduce the topic?
A. By presenting a successful ceremony. B. By showing her firm determination.
C. By describing her personal experience. D. By introducing her perfect marriage.
13. What can we learn from the example of the “good enough mother”?
A. Raising a child brings a mother much joy. B. Pursuing perfection is the duty of mothers.
C. Meeting babies’ demands is very challenging. D. Responding instantly impacts babies’ growth.
14. What is the function of the two questions at the end of Paragraph 5?
A. To shift topics. B. To make assumptions. C. To arouse interest. D. To encourage thinking.
15. Which of the following might the author approve of?
A. A miss is as good as a mile. B. Haste makes waste.
C. Close enough is good enough. D. Practice makes perfect.
【答案】12. C 13. D 14. D 15. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文,主要讲述了追求完美可能成为生活中幸福的重大阻碍,强调接受不完美的重要性,鼓励人们学会欣赏不完美之处,拥抱一种不完美主义的生活态度。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段“When planning my wedding, I was determined not to get caught up in the “perfect day”, but to have a relaxed, informal celebration. My husband and I ended up having a lovely time.(在计划我的婚礼时,我决定不要陷入“完美的一天”,而是要有一个轻松,非正式的庆祝活动。我丈夫和我度过了一段美好的时光。)”可知,作者通过讲述自己筹备婚礼时摒弃追求完美、选择轻松庆祝的个人经历来引出文章关于追求完美的话题,所以作者是通过描述个人经历来引入话题的。故选C。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“He said perfect is harmful. To meet every desire immediately, to pass the toy straight away whenever it is demanded slows down a baby’s growth, robbing them of the opportunity to feel frustrated (沮丧的) and learn to crawl to get the toy for themselves.(他说完美是有害的。立刻满足每一个需求,在孩子一要玩具的时候就马上把玩具递过去,这会减缓婴儿的成长,剥夺了他们感到沮丧以及学会自己爬过去拿玩具的机会)”可知,从“足够好的母亲”的例子中可以推断出,母亲立刻回应婴儿的需求(即追求完美回应)会影响婴儿的成长,让他们失去自我探索和成长的机会。故选D。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。文章第五段结尾的两个问题“How can you be a good partner if you expect everyone else to fit your own narrow expectations? How can your child grow if they sense that they always need to color precisely inside the lines you’ve drawn out for them?(如果你期望每个人都能满足你狭隘的期望,你怎么能成为一个好的伴侣呢?如果你的孩子觉得他们总是需要在你为他们画的线条内精确地涂上颜色,他们怎么能成长呢?)”是在前面讲述了自己作为完美主义者认识到自己对不完美的不容忍以及这种态度对人际关系和育儿的影响之后提出的。这两个问题是为了让读者思考,如果总是期望别人符合自己狭隘的期望,就无法成为好伴侣,孩子也无法真正成长,鼓励读者进行思考。故选D。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“We need to go further than tolerating imperfections. We need to learn to appreciate their humanity and beauty. Imperfections are why people will pay a calligrapher to handwrite invitations when a computer can produce a flawless (完美的) version of the same script for less money and in less time. So for a more delicious life, and ultimately a better one, I choose imperfectionism.(我们需要做的不仅仅是容忍不完美。我们需要学会欣赏他们的人性和美。不完美是人们愿意花钱请书法家手写邀请函的原因,而电脑可以用更少的钱和更短的时间制作出同样的脚本的完美版本。因此,为了更美好的生活,最终更好的生活,我选择了不完美主义)”可推知,作者会同意的是“差不多就行(了)”,认为达到一定程度、接近预期标准就可以接受,不完美也行。故选C。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了伦敦Hunan Restaurant的独特“无菜单”服务方式及其发展历程。
【36题详解】
考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意:40多年来,伦敦的湖南酒家一直以其独特的“无菜单”餐厅而闻名。根据时间状语for over 40 years可知,句子应使用现在完成时态。同时,主语Hunan Restaurant是单数形式,助动词用has。故填has been。
【37题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:Michael Peng的父亲于1982年创立了这家餐厅,将湘菜的辣味引入了伦敦。空格处应该用非谓语动词作状语,动词found与句子的主语the restaurant之间是逻辑上的动宾关系,所以用过去分词founded作状语;置于句首,首字母大写。故填Founded。
【38题详解】
考查副词。句意:然而,顾客通常会收到不同的菜肴。前后句之间存在转折关系,且空格后有逗号,需要一个副词来表示这种转折,所以用副词however;置于句首,首字母大写。故填However。
【39题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:他们声称自己并未点某些菜品,而他的父亲则坚称自己已经为他们提供了更好的菜品,这常常导致关于账单的争论。空格处引导非限制性定语从句,从句中缺少主语,所以应该用关系代词which代替上文的内容在从句中作主语。故填which。
【40题详解】
考查时态和语态。句意:与大多数中餐馆不同,这里的饭菜是根据客人的喜好、饮食需求甚至文化背景来安排的。空格处是谓语动词,根据上下文,句子描述的是客观情况,应使用一般现在时。同时,主语meals与动词arrange之间是被动关系,因此需要使用被动语态,主语是复数形式,be动词用are。故填are arranged。
【41题详解】
考查形容词比较级。句意:他提到,湖南菜越简单,就需要越好的食材。根据句意和上文的the simpler可知,此处考查固定句型“the+比较级,the+比较级”表示“越……越……”,所以空格处用比较级better。故填better。
【42题详解】
考查副词。句意:餐厅还提供特别精选的葡萄酒,其中包括德国葡萄酒,彭发现这些葡萄酒非常适合中国菜。空格处修饰下文的动词selected,应该用副词specially作状语。故填specially。
【43题详解】
考查冠词。句意:Michael表示,这种独特的“无菜单”模式在很大程度上依赖于顾客的信任,因为它允许厨师根据顾客的喜好来选择菜品,从而为顾客营造出独特的用餐体验。此处特指“独特的无菜单理念”,需要使用定冠词the。故填the。
【44题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:随着越来越多的中餐馆开业,他补充道,正宗的中国菜需要专业的培训,而这种培训在这里很难找到。空格处应该用非谓语动词作定语,修饰下文的numbers,动词increase与名词numbers之间是主动关系,且表示正在进行,所以用现在分词increasing作定语。故填increasing。
【45题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:随着越来越多的中餐馆开业,他补充道,正宗的中国菜需要专业的培训,而这种培训在这里很难找到。“主语+be+adj+to do”是固定句型,用来描述主语的特征,所以空格处应该用不定式形式。故填to find。

56. 太空探索的未来依然光明。(remain 系表结构)(汉译英)
___________________________________________________
【答案】
The future of space exploration remains bright.
【解析】
【详解】主语“太空探索的未来”翻译为The future of space exploration;按照要求用remain系表结构:句子描述客观事实用一般现在时,主语是单数,因此系动词remain变为第三人称单数形式remains;表语“光明”用形容词bright,直接跟在系动词remain后构成系表结构,符合语法要求。

___________________________________________________
【答案】
The climate here is mild all year round, meaning (that) it is suitable to visit here at any time.
【解析】
【详解】“气候”是climate,“这里的气候”表达为The climate here ;“温和的”是mild ,“全年”是all year round ,所以“这里全年气候温和”译为The climate here is mild all year round ,用一般现在时描述客观事实; “意味着”是mean ,这里用现在分词meaning作结果状语,表明前面“气候温和”所产生的结果; “适宜做某事”是be suitable to do sth. ,“任何时候”是at any time ,所以“任何时候都适宜来游览”可译为it is suitable to visit here at any time ,it作形式主语,真正的主语是to visit here;meaning后的that可省略 。
58. 未曾踏足中国的游客可以在唐人街近距离感受中国传统文化。(allow,定语从句)(汉译英)
____________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】They allow visitors who have never been to China to experience traditional Chinese culture first hand in Chinatown.
【解析】
【详解】考查时态和定语从句。表示“他们”用they,作主语,位于句首,首字母大写。表示“允许”用allow,作主语,主句描述的是现在的情况,所以时态使用一般现在时,主语为复数,谓语用动词原形。表示“游客”用visitor,不止一名游客,用复数形式,作宾语。表示“未曾踏足中国的”用定语从句,修饰visitors,从句中:先行词是visitors,指人,关系词代替先行词在从句中作主语,应用关系代词who引导,表示“去过”用have never been to;表示“中国”用China,作宾语。表示“亲身体验……”用experience...first hand,用不定式,作宾补。表示“中国传统文化”用traditional Chinese culture,作experience的宾语。表示“在唐人街”用in Chinatown,作地点状语。故翻译为They allow visitors who have never been to China to experience traditional Chinese culture first hand in Chinatown.
59. 我们知道你很努力,所以我们才把信给你。(that’s why 表语从句)
___________________________________________________
