W: Oh, I see.

【原文】 Good morning, everyone. Welcome to our special feature on a meaningful event hosted by the charity organization Save Our Street Dogs, or SOSD. On March 2nd, SOSD will hold its annual fundraising and adoption event in Urban Park. This combined event aims to raise funds for a new care center, while also helping more street dogs find loving homes. The funds raised are crucial for the construction of the SOSD care center, a major step to accommodate more dogs in need. At present, SOSD cares for 160 dogs at its shelters, and also feeds 70 homeless dogs wandering around on Jurong Island. During the event, visitors can meet several dogs seeking forever homes. These include Odin, recently rescued from an abandoned factory, and now recovering from an eye injury, Caleb, a loving dog who was left behind after his owner moved away, and Tammy, a fun companion rescued from a forest, who had surgery after suffering a severe leg injury. These three are just a few of the furry friends waiting for adopters. On-the-spot volunteer registration will also be available on March 2nd. This is a great chance to support a worthy cause. So, why not take part in the event on March 2nd and help a dog find its forever home?

B
I had been confined to a wheelchair for eight years due to muscular dystrophy. Honestly, I thought I would never walk by myself again. I kept searching for something that could help me stand, but the devices available in Argentina were mostly designed for sports, not for people like me who had lost the basic ability to move their legs.
Then came the Canton Fair this April, where my friend Clara and I wanted to find some beauty products initially. When we passed by the service robot zone, a booth with exoskeleton (外骨骼装置) devices caught our eye. I waited in line for half an hour, my heart full of expectation and doubt. A staff member from Hangzhou Taixi Technology helped me into a lightweight belt-like device weighing just 1.8 kilograms. At first, I was nervous and held tightly onto my companion’s arm. But within minutes, something miraculous happened — I stood up. With the exoskeleton’s gentle support, I took a few steps, completely on my own. Every step I take feels tailor-made for me, comfortable and effortless, without to set anything. My friend broke down in tears beside me, covering her face with both hands.
I was overwhelmed too. For eight years, an electric wheelchair had been my only “feet”. In that moment, I felt truly independent for the first time. I hugged the staff tightly and could barely speak. Later, when the company invited us to Hangzhou to try upgraded models, we went without hesitation. Walking along the West Lake in traditional Chinese outfits, the rain wetting my face, I looked at my legs and said to myself, “Finally, my legs feel strong again.” I even joked, “I feel like Iron Woman!”
Before we left, the company gifted me my very own exoskeleton, specially adjusted so the left side provided extra support for my weaker leg. Back home in Argentina, I even appeared on our national television. Now I hope to introduce this incredible Chinese technology to my country so that more people can experience the freedom of walking again. The device is priced at just $1,200, making it truly accessible — technology with heart, changing real lives.
Those four steps I took at the Canton Fair were not just steps. They were a chance at life.
24. What can we know about the exoskeleton devices?
A. It is initially designed for sports. B. It has been widely used in Argentina.
C. It can only cure people with wheelchairs. D. It meets users’ habits automatically.
25. What does the author imply by calling herself “Iron Woman”?
A. She felt physically invincible and super strong.
B. She was describing the material of the exoskeleton.
C. It reflected her newfound strength and empowerment.
D. It expressed her desire to become a superhero in public.
26. What can we infer from the company?
A. It was invited by the national television in Argentina.
B. It was committed to helping individuals regain mobility.
C. It planned to recruit her as a spokesperson for their products.
D. It wanted to test the device’s performance in a foreign country.
27. What message does the passage convey?
A. Where there is a will, there is a way. B. Every journey begins with a single step.
C. True technology is designed for humanity. D. International fairs are vital for life changes.
【答案】24. D 25. C 26. B 27. C
【解析】
【导语】文章讲述了一位因肌肉萎缩症坐轮椅八年的阿根廷女性,在广交会上意外体验到中国的外骨骼技术后,重新站立行走并重获独立的故事。
【24题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“With the exoskeleton’s gentle support, I took a few steps, completely on my own. Every step I take feels tailor-made for me, comfortable and effortless, without to set anything. (在外骨骼的温和支撑下,我迈出了几步,完全是依靠自己的力量完成的。我每走一步都感觉都是为我量身定制的,既舒适又轻松,无需进行任何设置。)”可推知,外骨骼设备能自动适应用户的习惯。
【25题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“I looked at my legs and said to myself, “Finally, my legs feel strong again.” I even joked, “I feel like Iron Woman!” (我看着自己的双腿,对自己说:“终于,我的腿又感到有力了。”我甚至开玩笑说:“我感觉自己像钢铁侠!”)”可知,此处是比喻手法,作者自称“钢铁侠”是在强调她在设备辅助下重获行走能力时的强大感和自我掌控感,反映了她新获得的力量和自主能力。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“A staff member from Hangzhou Taixi Technology helped me into a lightweight belt-like device weighing just 1.8 kilograms. (一位来自杭州太希科技公司的工作人员帮我穿上了一个轻便的、类似腰带的装置,该装置重仅1.8千克。)”、第三段中“Later, when the company invited us to Hangzhou to try upgraded models, we went without hesitation. (后来,公司邀请我们去杭州试用升级版产品,我们毫不犹豫地就去了。)”和第四段中“Before we left, the company gifted me my very own exoskeleton, specially adjusted so the left side provided extra support for my weaker leg. (在我们离开之前,公司送给我一台专属的外骨骼装备,它经过了特别的调整,使得左侧能够为我那较为虚弱的腿提供额外的支撑。)”可知,该公司在现场帮助作者体验设备,邀请她去杭州体验升级版产品,并赠送了她一台专门调整过的外骨骼装备,这些行动体现了公司致力于帮助个人重获行动能力。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文,尤其是第二段中“But within minutes, something miraculous happened — I stood up. (但就在几分钟之内,奇迹发生了——我站了起来。)”、第四段中“Before we left, the company gifted me my very own exoskeleton, specially adjusted so the left side provided extra support for my weaker leg. (在我们离开之前,公司送给我一套专属的外骨骼装备,它经过了特别的调整,使得左侧能够为我那较为虚弱的腿提供额外的支撑。)”和“The device is priced at just $1,200, making it truly accessible — technology with heart, changing real lives. (该设备的价格仅为1200美元,使其真正触手可及——用心的技术,改变现实生活。)”可知,全文通过外骨骼设备如何让作者重获行走自由、公司个性化适配设备、亲民定价等细节,点明“用心的技术,改变现实生活”,传达的理念是“真正的技术是为人类服务的”。
C
“If your skin is getting older, you are getting older, so be careful,” says Claudia Cavadas at the University of Coimbra, Portugal. Could our fight to remove wrinkles help restore youth both inside and out?
As skin ages, more and more cells enter a lifeless state called senescence (衰老). As time marches on, the mechanisms (机制) for clearing senescent cells out start to decline and they build up in tissues. This is bad news. The build-up of these cells has been shown to be a direct cause of some of the conditions that are generally more common in older age.
To support her assumption around wrinkles driving whole-body ageing, Cavadas is planning to test experimental drugs on animal models of aged skin. “The evidence is still fragile, but, in a year, we will have experimental data” she says.
Whether resisting skin ageing resists whole-body ageing will need to be seen. But there is another good reason to slow down skin ageing at least. Aged skin is worse than young skin at pretty much everything it is supposed to do, says a plastic surgeon. Its barrier functions weaken, wounds are slower to heal (康复), sensitivity to touch declines and its ability to defend diseases is weakened.
How about anti-wrinkle creams? At present, there is limited evidence that they are genuine anti-ageing treatments. We do, however, have one method for preventing skin ageing: sunscreen, which absorbs UV rays before they do damage to the skin. It is never too soon to start. Even though the first visible signs of skin ageing usually don’t appear until our mid-20s, the potential processes are under way much earlier.
Apparently, wrinkle treatment should no longer be seen as a “skin-deep” thing, but as a vital part of staying biologically young and healthy. Everyone should pay attention to that, because we all have skin in this game.
28. What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about?
A. The definition of senescence. B. The causes of skin ageing.
C. The process of cell declining. D. The consequences of skin ageing.
29. What does the underlined word “fragile” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Artificial. B. Considerable.
C. Insubstantial. D. Convincing.
30. Which is a disadvantage of the aged skin?
A. It tends to be sensitive to touches. B. The cut on it recovers quickly.
C. The barrier functions work poorly. D. It stops guarding against diseases.
31. What can we learn from the last two paragraphs?
A. Anti-wrinkle creams are quite useful.
B. Wrinkle treatment is important to health.
C. Sunscreen may pose potential risk to the skin.
D. Wrinkle treatment is a practice proven skin-deep.
【答案】28. D 29. C 30. C 31. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讨论了皮肤老化与全身老化的关系,以及科学家对此的研究和探索,同时涉及了抗衰老的方法和防晒的重要性。
【28题详解】
主旨大意题。文章第二段第一句“As skin ages, more and more cells enter a lifeless state called senescence(衰老) .(随着皮肤老化,越来越多的细胞进入一种无活力的状态,这种状态被称为衰老)”描述了随着皮肤老化,细胞进入衰老状态;接着提到“As time marches on, the mechanisms (机制) for clearing senescent cells out start to decline and they build up in tissues.(随着时间的推移,清除衰老细胞的机制开始衰退,衰老细胞在组织中不断积聚)”即清除衰老细胞的机制衰退,衰老细胞在组织中积聚;最后一句“The build-up of these cells has been shown to be a direct cause of some of the conditions that are generally more common in older age.(已经证实,这些细胞的积聚是一些老年常见病症的直接诱因)”表明这些细胞的积聚是老年常见病症的直接诱因。因此第二段主要讲述了皮肤老化的后果。故选D。
【29题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线单词所在句““The evidence is still fragile, but, in a year, we will have experimental data” she says.(她说:“目前的证据还fragile,但一年后,我们将获得实验数据。”)”中的but可知,后面说“一年后我们将有实验数据”,说明目前证据还不充分。选项C“Insubstantial(不充实的;无实质内容的;不牢固的)”符合目前证据还不够有力,还比较薄弱的意思。故选C。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第四段“Aged skin is worse than young skin at pretty much everything it is supposed to do, says a plastic surgeon. Its barrier functions weaken, wounds are slower to heal (康复), sensitivity to touch declines and its ability to defend diseases is weakened.(一位整形外科医生说,衰老的皮肤在几乎所有它应有的功能方面都比年轻皮肤差。皮肤的屏障功能减弱,伤口愈合速度变慢,对触摸的敏感度下降,抵御疾病的能力也变弱了)”可知,老年皮肤的屏障功能会减弱,即其屏障功能较差。故选C。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Apparently, wrinkle treatment should no longer be seen as a “skin-deep” thing, but as a vital part of staying biologically young and healthy. Everyone should pay attention to that, because we all have skin in this game.(显然,皱纹治疗不应再被视为一件“表面”的事情,而应被视为保持生理年轻和健康的重要部分。每个人都应该重视这一点,因为在这场与衰老的对抗中,我们都拥有皮肤)”可知,皱纹治疗不应只被看作是表面的事情,而是保持生理年轻和健康的重要部分。由此推知,皱纹治疗对健康很重要。故选B。
D
Have you ever questioned why someone is being unusually kind? You’re not alone. We often instinctively look for hidden motives behind generous acts, a reaction psychologists call “do-gooder derogation.” This means we may judge a seemingly selfless person more harshly (严厉地) than someone who is openly self-interested.
A classic experiment, the “public goods game”, demonstrates this. Participants are given money and can choose to contribute to a shared pot, which grows and is later split equally. While contributing maximizes the group’s total gain, selfish individuals can contribute little and still benefit. Surprisingly, the most generous contributors in this game are often criticized as much as the selfish “free riders”.
Psychologist Nichola Raihani suggests we are all playing a social “status game”. We are suspicious of those who might be using kindness to boost their reputation. This suspicion is at the heart of the “tainted altruism effect”. Imagine a friend, Andy, volunteers at a homeless shelter. If we discover his true motive is to date the shelter manager, we judge him more severely than if he took a coffee shop job for the same reason. The charitable context makes the hidden motive seem worse.
Researcher Sebastian Hafenbradl explored this further. His studies confirmed that we judge people like Andy more harshly when they seek social rewards from a good deed. Interestingly, the judgment softens if the person is honest about their motive upfront, as this removes the “unearned social reward” of appearing purely altruistic (利他主义的). Furthermore, people who do good merely to feel good about themselves are judged less harshly than those seeking to enhance their reputation. Both acts contain self-interest, but seeking public approval is seen as more dishonest.
So, is any act truly selfless? Perhaps not. But if the result is more kindness in the world, maybe we can forgive a little mixed motivation.
32. What is the purpose of mentioning the “public goods game” in paragraph 2?
A. To support a social theory with evidence. B. To explain the rules of a well-known game.
C. To introduce a popular economic experiment D. To give an example of a psychological finding.
33. The “tainted altruism effect” is best shown in the case where ________.
A. an athlete’s fair win brings public honor. B. a firm’s charity donation aims at a tax cut.
C. a student’s hard work targets a scholarship. D. a volunteer’s sharing seeks to inspire others.
34. What did Sebastian Hafenbradi’s studies find?
A. Seeking public approval shows the least honesty.
B. Hiding selfish motives results in gentler criticism.
C. Admitting selfish motives in advance reduces blame.
D. Acting for self-satisfaction draws the strongest criticism.
35. What is the author’s attitude towards mixed-motive kindness?
A. Tolerant. B. Indifferent. C. Confused. D. Critical.
【答案】32. D 33. B 34. C 35. A
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了心理学中的“行善者贬损”现象和“污点利他效应”,通过实验和案例解释了人们为何会对带有隐藏动机的慷慨行为产生怀疑,并指出虽然纯粹的利他可能不存在,但只要结果是增加善意,混合动机的行为也是可以被原谅的。
【32题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中的“We often instinctively look for hidden motives behind generous acts, a reaction psychologists call “do-gooder derogation.”(我们总会本能揣测慷慨举动背后的隐藏动机,这种心理反应被心理学家称作“行善者贬损效应”。)”以及第二段开头的“A classic experiment, the ‘public goods game’, demonstrates this.(一个经典的实验,‘公共物品游戏’,证明了这一点。)”可知,列举实验是为举例说明该项心理学研究发现。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中的“We are suspicious of those who might be using kindness to boost their reputation. This suspicion is at the heart of the “tainted altruism effect”.(人们会怀疑有人借善意抬高自身声望,这种质疑就是“沾染私利的利他效应”的核心。)”以及举例“Imagine a friend, Andy, volunteers at a homeless shelter. If we discover his true motive is to date the shelter manager(想象一下,朋友安迪在流浪者收容所做志愿者。如果我们发现他的真实动机是为了约会收容所经理)”可知,该效应指的是在慈善背景下,隐藏的个人私利会被看得更严重。B选项“一家公司的慈善捐款旨在减税”符合这一描述。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Interestingly, the judgment softens if the person is honest about their motive upfront, as this removes the ‘unearned social reward’ of appearing purely altruistic (利他主义的).(有趣的是,如果一个人一开始就诚实地交代了自己的动机,人们的判断就会变得温和,因为这消除了纯粹利他主义带来的‘不劳而获的社会回报’。)”可知,提前承认自私动机可以减少责备。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“But if the result is more kindness in the world, maybe we can forgive a little mixed motivation.(只要行为能给世界带来更多善意,我们或许可以谅解带有复杂动机的善意。)”可知作者对此持包容态度。

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章以伦敦国王学院2024年的一项注意力研究为切入点,指出英国49%的公众正受“爆米花大脑”(注意力分散、思绪飘忽的精神状态)困扰,随后心理学家蒂娜·丘蒙针对该问题提出了思维导图法、思绪回归训练、减少科技使用、留白独处等四条实用解决建议。
【36题详解】
上文“According to a 2024 attention study by King’s College London, 49% of the UK public are experiencing ‘popcorn (爆米花) brain’, a mental state featuring divided attention and wandering thoughts. (根据伦敦国王学院2024年的一项注意力研究,49%的英国公众正经历“爆米花大脑”,这种精神状态的特点是注意力分散、思绪飘忽。)”定义了“爆米花大脑”并说明其高发率,下文“In response to the findings, psychologist Tina Chummun gives her top tips. (针对这些发现,心理学家蒂娜·丘蒙给出了她的顶级建议。)”引出解决建议。F项“他们感觉自己的注意力不太集中,深度思考也更少见了。”承接上文,“they”指代前文“49% of the UK public”,“注意力不太集中”“深度思考少见”是对“注意力分散、思绪飘忽”的进一步阐释,让读者更清晰理解“爆米花大脑”的表现,衔接自然。故选F。
【37题详解】
上文“Adopt the mind map method. To manage a distracted (分心的) mind, write down everything, like appointments, worries and to-dos, without organizing it initially. Once everything is on paper, group these into life areas like work or emotional wellbeing. (采用思维导图法。为了管理分心的大脑,先把所有事情都写下来,比如约会、担忧和待办事项,一开始不用整理。一旦所有事情都写在纸上,就把它们归类到工作、情感健康等生活领域。)”详细介绍了思维导图法的前两个步骤——记录和归类,下文“This creates order and gives your brain permission to concentrate. (这能建立秩序,让你的大脑可以集中注意力。)”说明该方法的效果。E项“然后问问自己:现在什么重要,什么可以等一等?”作为思维导图法的第三步,承接前文的“记录和归类”流程,通过设问筛选优先级,进而实现下文“建立秩序、集中注意力”的效果,逻辑连贯。故选E。
【38题详解】
上文“Every time you feel your thoughts wandering, give yourself three seconds — breathe in, name what you’re feeling, and redirect your focus. (每次你感觉思绪飘忽时,给自己三秒钟——吸气,说出你的感受,然后重新集中注意力。)”介绍了思绪回归训练的具体操作,下文“By doing so, you may turn down the heat when your brain is working overtime.” (通过这样做,当你的大脑过度运转时,你可能会降温。)”说明该训练的作用。G项“这种练习能让你慢下来,管理情绪。”解释了该训练的直接效果,“this practice”指代上文的三秒训练法,“慢下来”对应“吸气”的动作,“管理情绪”对应“说出你的感受”,且为下文“大脑降温”的深层效果做铺垫。故选G。
【39题详解】
上文“Minimizing tech is also the key to getting back on track in your daily life. A full digital withdrawal is unrealistic. (减少科技产品使用也是日常生活中回归正轨的关键。完全脱离数字产品是不现实的。)”提出减少科技使用的建议并指出完全脱离不现实,下文“Then it could be followed by a five-minute screen time reward. (然后可以给五分钟的屏幕使用时间作为奖励。)”说明后续的奖励机制。C项“相反,完全不使用屏幕25到30分钟。”通过“instead”承接上文“完全脱离不现实”,给出切实可行的替代方案——短时间不使用屏幕,“25到30分钟”与下文“五分钟奖励”形成时长搭配,构成“限制并奖励”的有效模式,逻辑清晰。故选C。
【40题详解】
下文“At first, you may feel bored, as popcorn brain likes being ‘go go go’ to feel safe. “Go for a walk without music, or simply stare out your window,” suggests Tina. “Sit in silence and observe your thoughts. Let your brain breathe. (一开始,你可能会感到无聊,因为“爆米花大脑”喜欢一直“忙忙碌碌”才觉得安全。蒂娜建议:“不带音乐散步,或者只是盯着窗外。”“安静地坐着,观察自己的思绪。让你的大脑呼吸。”)”具体描述了“什么都不做”的放松方式及其意义。A项“在一天中留出时间什么都不做。”作为该段主题句,精准概括下文内容,“留出时间什么都不做”与下文“不带音乐散步”“安静坐着”等具体做法相呼应,符合段落主旨。故选A。

Ranking My Revision Essentials

【答案】
Ranking My Revision Essentials
As Senior Three approaches, it is vital for us to prioritize English revision modules to improve efficiently. Based on my learning experience, I rank the three essentials: reading first, listening second and writing third.
Reading tops my list for its core status. It accounts for the largest proportion of scores in exams and expands vocabulary and grammar knowledge, laying a solid foundation for the other two modules. Listening comes next. Daily practice sharpens our sense of language and is a stable source of scores. I put writing last. With accumulated vocabulary and sentence patterns from reading and listening, we can improve our writing skills in a short time.
This reasonable order will help me make the most of my revision time.
Ranking My Revision Essentials
As Senior Three approaches, proper English revision planning matters a lot. For better exam performance, I rank the three modules: writing first, reading second and listening third.
Writing ranks first because it is the key to high total scores. While basic scores are easy to gain, excellent writing performance distinguishes top students. Only by getting high marks in writing can we lift our overall English grade effectively. Reading comes second. It provides vocabulary and sentence materials to support writing. Listening takes last place. It mainly gains basic scores and has limited room for score improvement.
This practical ranking helps me focus on high-value revision to boost my total score.

第二节(满分25分)
67. 阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
For years, I had been using delicate experimental tools and advanced lab materials to bring complex scientific concepts to life for my students. Nothing made me happier than seeing their eyes light up during these interactive and engaging activities. So I had never imagined that waste items would become our most valuable teaching resources, and that shortage would become the source of our greatest inspiration.
Last year, our school was hit by severe budget cuts, which meant many resources for science activities were no longer available. As a teacher who had always relied on vivid experiments to make science fun, I felt extremely frustrated and discouraged. How could I keep my students interested and engaged without the well-equipped lab and expensive materials that had served us so well before? I was at a loss, worrying that my science classes would become boring and ineffective, and that my students would lose their passion for exploring the world through experiments.
Just as I was struggling with this problem, my students surprised me in the most unexpected way. When we started our unit on simple machines, something amazing happened. Jamie, a ten-year-old boy full of curiosity, brought in some old bicycle parts from his garage. He said they could be used to make wheels and levers (控制杆). Following his example, Maya shared cardboard boxes that her family had kept for later use. One by one, other students also brought in recycled items: plastic bottles, string, used cans, and even small pieces of wood. By the end of the week, we had transformed the corner of our classroom into an entire “invention lab” using recycled materials and student contributions.
At first, I doubted whether these simple, everyday objects could support meaningful learning. However, it turned out the learning that happened in that makeshift (临时的) lab exceeded anything we had accomplished with expensive commercial kits.

____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】
In this makeshift lab, students worked with amazing enthusiasm. Groups gathered around desks piled high with plastic bottles, strings, cardboard boxes, and various waste items. Instead of following strict instructions from expensive commercial kits, they created, tested, and improved their own simple machines. Some used bicycle chains to build a pulley system, while others cut plastic bottles to create a water wheel. When their simple machine successfully lifted a small weight, cheers erupted. Through hands-on creation and repeated attempts, they developed a much deeper understanding of scientific principles. Their eyes shone with confidence and pride, which I had rarely seen before.
By the end of the semester, we held a small exhibition for other classes. My students proudly showed off their creations, explaining how they used recycled materials to make something useful. It soon became a hit, inspiring many other classes to collect recycled materials for their own creative activities. The principal visited our classroom and was amazed by what we had accomplished. That day, I learned something no teacher training workshop had ever taught me: constraints don’t kill creativity — they set it free. When we involve students as partners in problem-solving, we tap into their creativity and resourcefulness while building genuine investment in their learning.

I had been confined to a wheelchair for eight years due to muscular dystrophy. Honestly, I thought I would never walk by myself again. I kept searching for something that could help me stand, but the devices available in Argentina were mostly designed for sports, not for people like me who had lost the basic ability to move their legs.
Then came the Canton Fair this April, where my friend Clara and I wanted to find some beauty products initially. When we passed by the service robot zone, a booth with exoskeleton (外骨骼装置) devices caught our eye. I waited in line for half an hour, my heart full of expectation and doubt. A staff member from Hangzhou Taixi Technology helped me into a lightweight belt-like device weighing just 1.8 kilograms. At first, I was nervous and held tightly onto my companion’s arm. But within minutes, something miraculous happened — I stood up. With the exoskeleton’s gentle support, I took a few steps, completely on my own. Every step I take feels tailor-made for me, comfortable and effortless, without to set anything. My friend broke down in tears beside me, covering her face with both hands.
I was overwhelmed too. For eight years, an electric wheelchair had been my only “feet”. In that moment, I felt truly independent for the first time. I hugged the staff tightly and could barely speak. Later, when the company invited us to Hangzhou to try upgraded models, we went without hesitation. Walking along the West Lake in traditional Chinese outfits, the rain wetting my face, I looked at my legs and said to myself, “Finally, my legs feel strong again.” I even joked, “I feel like Iron Woman!”
Before we left, the company gifted me my very own exoskeleton, specially adjusted so the left side provided extra support for my weaker leg. Back home in Argentina, I even appeared on our national television. Now I hope to introduce this incredible Chinese technology to my country so that more people can experience the freedom of walking again. The device is priced at just $1,200, making it truly accessible — technology with heart, changing real lives.
Those four steps I took at the Canton Fair were not just steps. They were a chance at life.
24. What can we know about the exoskeleton devices?
A. It is initially designed for sports. B. It has been widely used in Argentina.
C. It can only cure people with wheelchairs. D. It meets users’ habits automatically.
25. What does the author imply by calling herself “Iron Woman”?
A. She felt physically invincible and super strong.
B. She was describing the material of the exoskeleton.
C. It reflected her newfound strength and empowerment.
D. It expressed her desire to become a superhero in public.
26. What can we infer from the company?
A. It was invited by the national television in Argentina.
B. It was committed to helping individuals regain mobility.
C. It planned to recruit her as a spokesperson for their products.
D. It wanted to test the device’s performance in a foreign country.
27. What message does the passage convey?
A. Where there is a will, there is a way. B. Every journey begins with a single step.
C. True technology is designed for humanity. D. International fairs are vital for life changes.

“If your skin is getting older, you are getting older, so be careful,” says Claudia Cavadas at the University of Coimbra, Portugal. Could our fight to remove wrinkles help restore youth both inside and out?
As skin ages, more and more cells enter a lifeless state called senescence (衰老). As time marches on, the mechanisms (机制) for clearing senescent cells out start to decline and they build up in tissues. This is bad news. The build-up of these cells has been shown to be a direct cause of some of the conditions that are generally more common in older age.
To support her assumption around wrinkles driving whole-body ageing, Cavadas is planning to test experimental drugs on animal models of aged skin. “The evidence is still fragile, but, in a year, we will have experimental data” she says.
Whether resisting skin ageing resists whole-body ageing will need to be seen. But there is another good reason to slow down skin ageing at least. Aged skin is worse than young skin at pretty much everything it is supposed to do, says a plastic surgeon. Its barrier functions weaken, wounds are slower to heal (康复), sensitivity to touch declines and its ability to defend diseases is weakened.
How about anti-wrinkle creams? At present, there is limited evidence that they are genuine anti-ageing treatments. We do, however, have one method for preventing skin ageing: sunscreen, which absorbs UV rays before they do damage to the skin. It is never too soon to start. Even though the first visible signs of skin ageing usually don’t appear until our mid-20s, the potential processes are under way much earlier.
Apparently, wrinkle treatment should no longer be seen as a “skin-deep” thing, but as a vital part of staying biologically young and healthy. Everyone should pay attention to that, because we all have skin in this game.
28. What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about?
A. The definition of senescence. B. The causes of skin ageing.
C. The process of cell declining. D. The consequences of skin ageing.
29. What does the underlined word “fragile” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Artificial. B. Considerable.
C. Insubstantial. D. Convincing.
30. Which is a disadvantage of the aged skin?
A. It tends to be sensitive to touches. B. The cut on it recovers quickly.
C. The barrier functions work poorly. D. It stops guarding against diseases.
31. What can we learn from the last two paragraphs?
A. Anti-wrinkle creams are quite useful.
B. Wrinkle treatment is important to health.
C. Sunscreen may pose potential risk to the skin.
D. Wrinkle treatment is a practice proven skin-deep.
D
Have you ever questioned why someone is being unusually kind? You’re not alone. We often instinctively look for hidden motives behind generous acts, a reaction psychologists call “do-gooder derogation.” This means we may judge a seemingly selfless person more harshly (严厉地) than someone who is openly self-interested.
A classic experiment, the “public goods game”, demonstrates this. Participants are given money and can choose to contribute to a shared pot, which grows and is later split equally. While contributing maximizes the group’s total gain, selfish individuals can contribute little and still benefit. Surprisingly, the most generous contributors in this game are often criticized as much as the selfish “free riders”.
Psychologist Nichola Raihani suggests we are all playing a social “status game”. We are suspicious of those who might be using kindness to boost their reputation. This suspicion is at the heart of the “tainted altruism effect”. Imagine a friend, Andy, volunteers at a homeless shelter. If we discover his true motive is to date the shelter manager, we judge him more severely than if he took a coffee shop job for the same reason. The charitable context makes the hidden motive seem worse.
Researcher Sebastian Hafenbradl explored this further. His studies confirmed that we judge people like Andy more harshly when they seek social rewards from a good deed. Interestingly, the judgment softens if the person is honest about their motive upfront, as this removes the “unearned social reward” of appearing purely altruistic (利他主义的). Furthermore, people who do good merely to feel good about themselves are judged less harshly than those seeking to enhance their reputation. Both acts contain self-interest, but seeking public approval is seen as more dishonest.
So, is any act truly selfless? Perhaps not. But if the result is more kindness in the world, maybe we can forgive a little mixed motivation.
32. What is the purpose of mentioning the “public goods game” in paragraph 2?
A. To support a social theory with evidence. B. To explain the rules of a well-known game.
C. To introduce a popular economic experiment D. To give an example of a psychological finding.
33. The “tainted altruism effect” is best shown in the case where ________.
A. an athlete’s fair win brings public honor. B. a firm’s charity donation aims at a tax cut.
C. a student’s hard work targets a scholarship. D. a volunteer’s sharing seeks to inspire others.
34. What did Sebastian Hafenbradi’s studies find?
A. Seeking public approval shows the least honesty.
B. Hiding selfish motives results in gentler criticism.
C. Admitting selfish motives in advance reduces blame.
D. Acting for self-satisfaction draws the strongest criticism.
35. What is the author’s attitude towards mixed-motive kindness?
A. Tolerant. B. Indifferent. C. Confused. D. Critical.

According to a 2024 attention study by King’s College London, 49% of the UK public are experiencing “popcorn (爆米花) brain”, a mental state featuring divided attention and wandering thoughts. ____36____ In response to the findings, psychologist Tina Chummun gives her top tips.
Adopt the mind map method. To manage a distracted (分心的) mind, write down everything, like appointments, worries and to - dos, without organizing it initially. Once everything is on paper, group these into life areas like work or emotional wellbeing. ____37____ This creates order and gives your brain permission to concentrate.
Every time you feel your thoughts wandering, give yourself three seconds — breathe in, name what you’re feeling, and redirect your focus. ____38____ By doing so, you may turn down the heat when your brain is working overtime.
Minimizing tech is also the key to getting back on track in your daily life. A full digital withdrawal is unrealistic. ____39____ Then it could be followed by a five-minute screen time reward. It teaches your brain to tolerate stillness without feeling punished.
____40____ At first, you may feel bored, as popcorn brain likes being ‘go go go’ to feel safe. “Go for a walk without music, or simply stare out your window,” suggests Tina. “Sit in silence and observe your thoughts. Let your brain breathe. It is sometimes exactly what your nervous system needs.”
So, are you ready to quiet the mental popcorn and get your focus back?
A. Allow space in your day for doing nothing.
B. So, what’s making our brains pop like popcorn?
C. Instead, go totally screen-free for 25-30 minutes.

67. 阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
For years, I had been using delicate experimental tools and advanced lab materials to bring complex scientific concepts to life for my students. Nothing made me happier than seeing their eyes light up during these interactive and engaging activities. So I had never imagined that waste items would become our most valuable teaching resources, and that shortage would become the source of our greatest inspiration.
Last year, our school was hit by severe budget cuts, which meant many resources for science activities were no longer available. As a teacher who had always relied on vivid experiments to make science fun, I felt extremely frustrated and discouraged. How could I keep my students interested and engaged without the well-equipped lab and expensive materials that had served us so well before? I was at a loss, worrying that my science classes would become boring and ineffective, and that my students would lose their passion for exploring the world through experiments.
Just as I was struggling with this problem, my students surprised me in the most unexpected way. When we started our unit on simple machines, something amazing happened. Jamie, a ten-year-old boy full of curiosity, brought in some old bicycle parts from his garage. He said they could be used to make wheels and levers (控制杆). Following his example, Maya shared cardboard boxes that her family had kept for later use. One by one, other students also brought in recycled items: plastic bottles, string, used cans, and even small pieces of wood. By the end of the week, we had transformed the corner of our classroom into an entire “invention lab” using recycled materials and student contributions.
At first, I doubted whether these simple, everyday objects could support meaningful learning. However, it turned out the learning that happened in that makeshift (临时的) lab exceeded anything we had accomplished with expensive commercial kits.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
In this makeshift lab, students worked with amazing enthusiasm.
