In the room, I seemed to be the only one who was ____18____ from this new class I took. Everyone else looked as if they belonged here. They were in their fitted sportswear without any sweat to be seen. I, on the other hand, with my messy hair and oversized clothes, wondered why I had ever bothered coming. Earlier last year, I decided to give fitness a real shot. All my life, exercise had been a (n) ____19____ thing, and in school, gym class was a place of awkwardness. In every gym class, I felt like I was a strange person in the room. Then, on a Sunday morning, I ____20____ went to my university gym for spin class (动感单车课程). I had considered giving up many times, but I told myself that attending the class was all that ____21____.

Finally, the spin class became my special hour every week. The more I spun, the more I realized how ____23____ my body was. Never before had I felt such pride in my body’s ability.

B At the age of 17 years 64 days, Mack Rutherford has become the youngest person to fly around the world alone! Mack’s journey around the world lasted five months and he flew across 52 countries in total. His record-breaking flight began in Sofia, the capital of Bulgaria, on 23 March, 2022. He was 16 years old when he took off and celebrated his 17th birthday by himself in his plane. Mack faced many challenges during his adventure. Because of his small-sized aircraft, he had to land whenever the weather got too terrible. However, at some points he couldn’t land, such as when flying non-stop for 10 hours over an ocean. At other points, he faced extremely hot weather, such as in Dubai. In Sudan, a country in Africa, Mack also faced sandstorms which made it hard for him to see where he was going. Mack battled strong winds and pouring rain during his flight, but he never stopped smiling, joking and updating his followers on his social media account along the way, and managed to fly his plane to safety. And if Mack’s surname “Rutherford” sounds familiar, it’s because his elder sister Zara also flew around the world earlier this year, and still holds the female version of the record! The Rutherford siblings (兄弟姐妹) were inspired by their parents to become pilots. “I have known for certain I wanted to fly since I was eleven,” Mack said, “My dad Sam is a professional ferry pilot, my mum Beatrice is a recreational private pilot.” Mack hopes to inspire young people to begin working towards their own goals, “No matter what background you have, I believe it is never too early to work towards your dreams and you shouldn’t limit yourself by others’ expectations.” With both feet firmly back on the ground now, it’s time for Mack to turn his attention towards catching up on his schoolwork! 29. What can we know about Mack’s flight? A. It began when he was 17 years 64 days old. B. It was a successful record-breaking attempt. C. It made him the youngest person to fly alone. D. It took off in the capital of his home country. 30. What challenges did Mack face? A. Limitation of flight hours. B. Darkness and safety issues. C. Bad weather and long distance. D. Loneliness of flying alone. 31. Why did Mack and his sister want to be pilots? A. To live up to their parents’ expectations. B. To encourage each other to dream big. C. To serve as examples for their siblings. D. To model themselves on their parents. 32. What words can we use to describe Mack? A. Patient and caring. B. Talented and persistent. C. Optimistic and strong-willed. D. Adventuresome and careful. C When preparing for a test, most students think it’s best to simply study the material and try to memorize as much of it as possible. Many tests seemingly reward rote (死记硬背) memorization. But what if students are trained by testing themselves instead? Usually, studying is considered a safer bet; why risk producing wrong answers when you can just memorize the right one? Yet it turns out making mistakes early on can be more helpful for remembering information over time. Cognitive (认知的) psychologists Henry Roddy Roediger and Jeff Karpicke did a study where they had hundreds of students memorize passages from a test-preparation book for the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL). One group memorized these passages by reading them repeatedly, while another group read the passages several times and then completed three tests. The results were surprising: the students who repeatedly studied the material performed better at the beginning, but when they were tested again a week later, the students who tested themselves recalled over 60% of what they had learned, compared to only 40% for the group who repeatedly studied. The testing effect has since been confirmed in many studies under a range of conditions. Its value remains undoubted, but scientists are still discussing why it has such a powerful effect on memory. The simplest explanation is that testing exposes our weaknesses. When we test our memories, we expose the weaknesses of existing neural (神经的) connections in a way that finally strengthens what’s useful and removes what’s not, making the information we try to memorize more lasting and easier to recall. To maximize the benefits of the testing effect, it’s important to return to the same information in shorter sessions over several days instead of cramming (塞进) everything into a single night of intense studying. This allows your brain to strengthen the information and create stronger memories. In short, testing is not just a tool for testing your knowledge but also a powerful learning tool. By embracing mistakes and actively testing yourself, you can improve your learning and memory. So, instead of avoiding mistakes, embrace them as opportunities for growth and mastery. 33. What do we know about Henry and Jeff’s study? A. Self-testing works only in tasks of memorizing things. B. Those who repeatedly studied performed better later. C. Rote memorization doesn’t work well in the long run. D. The study focused mainly on how to prepare for TOEFL. 34. What happens to the brain when people test their memories? A. Additional neural connections in the brain are created. B. The brain processes new information at a higher speed. C. The weak connections between neurons are removed. D. Weak but useful neural connections become stronger. 35. What is an effective way to study according to paragraph 4? A. Avoiding making the same mistakes in tests. B. Studying everything intensely on a single night. C. Reviewing in shorter sessions over several days. D. Focusing on what is most likely to be on the test. 36. Which would be the best title for the passage? A. Cramming for Exams: A Safer Bet for Success B. The Testing Effect: Why Practice Makes Perfect C. The Secret of Learning: How Brains Process Information D. The Power of Testing: An Effective Approach to Learning D It’s human nature to feel embarrassed for someone who slips on a wet floor. It’s a sign of empathy (共情) which shapes human cooperation and connection. What happens, though, when the second person in this situation is replaced with a robot? Experiencing secondhand embarrassment lights up areas in the human brain connected with pain and the recognition of emotions. Similarly, social anxiety is linked to heightened empathy, but also comes with a reduced ability to actually understand the other person’s emotions, known as cognitive empathy. And of course, the more socially close and invested a person is in another, the more intensely they’ll feel this bystander discomfort. Interestingly, new research from Oakridge University found that humans can have the same sort of secondhand embarrassment when they see a robot display social awkwardness. To test this phenomenon, human participants were immersed in a virtual environment where both human and robot avatars (机器人化身) were present. The researchers then put these avatars through awkward situations like falling in a crowd or dancing clumsily in public. Researchers then measured the electrical activity of the sweat glands (腺体) of the participants. This connects with signals like stress, or other states of high emotion. Participants also filled out a questionnaire about their emotional responses to each virtual social situation. The data indicates that humans felt self-embarrassment for both the human and robot avatars when they were in a socially awkward scene, although they considered the situation as more “real” for the human avatar compared to the robot. Still, the results show that humans can empathize with robots in embarrassing situations, suggesting that humans think the robots can be aware of being witnessed and have some degree of self-consciousness based on self-reflection and self-evaluation. But it also matters what the robot looks like: “The appearance of the robot may affect the empathetic embarrassment because humans empathize more strongly with more human-looking robots and less with more mechanical-looking robots when they are mistreated by humans.” Despite the interesting findings in this recent study, the team from Oakridge University realizes that a larger sample size, as well as real world humans and robots, would make the conclusions more convincing. “Our study provides valuable understanding into the evolving nature of human-robot relationships. As technology continues to integrate into our daily lives, understanding the emotional responses we have towards robots is important,” Lisa Green, the lead researcher on the project, said in a meeting. “This research opens up new ways for exploring the boundaries of human empathy and the potential challenges and benefits of human-robot interactions.” 37. What does the author mainly do in Paragraph 2? A. Introduce an approach. B. Explain a key concept. C. Offer a theoretical basis. D. Present previous findings. 38. What does the underlined word “invested” in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Dependent. B. Committed. C. Interested. D. Exhausted. 39. What can we learn from the study? A. Robots’ appearance decides empathetic embarrassment level. B. Humans think awkward robots may have self-consciousness. C. States of emotion hold back electrical activities in the brain. D. Awkward robots stimulate stronger empathy than humans. 40. What is the author’s main purpose in writing this passage? A. To explain the causes of social anxiety. B. To argue for more human-like robot designs. C. To compare empathy for humans and robots. D. To present findings on human empathy toward robots. 第四部分 书面表达（共三节，30分） 第一节：阅读表达（共4小题；第54-56题各2分，第57题4分，共10分） 阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。 How I Learned to Get My Social Energy Back Do you know what a social battery is? A social battery refers to the energy a person has for social activities. Like a phone battery, if a person uses up his or her energy, the social battery will also run out. I didn’t realize how important it was to manage this “battery” until last term, when I went through a tiring and confusing period. It all started during a busy month: three group project presentations, a school festival volunteer job, and many class debates. As an introvert (性格内向者), I’ve never been good at dealing with so many social events at the same time, but I pushed myself to take part in everything to “fit in”. On a Friday night, after a two-hour team discussion and a class party, I got a call from my best friend Lily. I stared at the phone for minutes and felt too tired to pick it up—I just wanted to sit alone quietly. That’s when I realized that my social battery was completely used up. Social battery levels can be influenced by different factors (因素), including personality, physical health and the types of activities. My poor sleep during that busy month made things worse; even a short conversation in class felt like it was a burden (负担). Finally, I talked to my English teacher, Ms. Wang. She explained that managing social energy isn’t about being unsociable—it’s about self-awareness. She shared some practical ways to recharge (充电), and I decided to give them a try. First, I started to plan my social activities, leaving gaps for rest between them. Second, I focused on “really important” events and said no to less meaningful gatherings. Third, I learned to take short breaks during stressful activities. During group project meetings, I would go out for 10 minutes to take a walk on campus or listen to music, which refreshed me quickly. After trying these methods for a month, I noticed a huge change. Last week, I successfully attended a class picnic and then spent a quiet Sunday afternoon painting—something I couldn’t have done before without getting tired. I also realized that recharging doesn’t mean avoiding people; it means finding a balance between social time and being alone. Now I can enjoy hanging out with my friends while keeping my energy in check, and this balance has made my school life much more enjoyable and fulfilling. 41.

I took an active part in it. I shared my favourite classic book, The Old Man and the Sea, with my classmates. We also had a group discussion about Chinese traditional culture. I enjoyed the book exchange activity and listened to several wonderful speeches. I felt very happy and proud. The festival helped me learn more about the charm of reading. It also brought us closer and made our school life more colorful. I think reading is a good habit that can open our minds and improve our writing. I hope we can have more activities like this in the future. I am looking forward to the next Reading Festival. 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
