Many parents believe every spare minute must be filled with productive learning, so they seldom leave blank hours for their kids to follow their own hearts. Gradually, a large number of young people lose the ability to feel simple happiness, for they have never owned a piece of time completely belonging to themselves. The theme “My time, my joy” reminds every teen to defend their private leisure and find inner peace within self-controlled hours. Elena, a Grade Nine student from London, once lived under a fully arranged timetable. Every weekday evening, she finished one exercise book after another; weekends were split into piano, math and public speaking classes without any break. She used to think joy only came from high exam scores and praise from teachers, yet she often felt empty and tired deep inside. Last winter vacation, she talked sincerely with her mother about her pressure, proposing to reserve three hours every Sunday as totally free personal time with no study tasks allowed. Her mother hesitated at first but finally agreed to give her a chance. During those three hours, Elena puts away all textbooks and mobile phones. She wanders around the community garden to watch birds, reads old storybooks she loved in childhood, or simply sits by the window to draw random sketches without worrying about whether they look perfect. At the beginning, she felt uneasy for “wasting time”, but as weeks went by, she gained unexpected calmness. She no longer gets anxious easily when facing difficult exams, and her learning efficiency rises greatly on school days. Psychologists explain that self-owned leisure acts as mental fuel: it relieves long-term pressure and refreshes our brains, making us more focused when we return to study. Lots of people misunderstand that free time equals laziness. In fact, my time creates my unique joy not because we avoid hard work, but because we get space to connect with our true selves. Busy study is necessary for growth, but it should never swallow all our life. Whether you like planting small green plants, writing diaries or walking alone in quiet streets, hold fast to your own time. Those unhurried moments are where genuine joy hides, warm and irreplaceable. 长难句解析 原句：（第一段第三句）Gradually, a large number of young people lose the ability to feel simple happiness, for they have never owned a piece of time completely belonging to themselves. 译文：久而久之，大量年轻人失去了感受简单快乐的能力，因为他们从未拥有一段完全属于自己的时光。 分析：本句是复合句。for 引导原因状语从句，用来解释主句产生的结果；句中 completely belonging to themselves 是现在分词短语作后置定语，修饰 a piece of time。 译文 不受规划的私人时光，才是真正的快乐 来源：British Council Learn English Teens, 2026-04-12 如今，大多数青少年的日程被繁重的作业、没完没了的课外辅导和各类培训班排得满满当当。许多家长认为每一分空闲时间都必须用来进行有收获的学习，因此他们几乎不会留给孩子随心做自己喜欢事的空白时间。久而久之，大量年轻人失去了感受简单快乐的能力，因为他们从未拥有一段完全属于自己的时光。“我的时间，我的快乐” 这一主题提醒每一位青少年，要守护属于自己的闲暇时光，在自主掌控的时光里寻得内心的平静。 来自伦敦的九年级学生埃琳娜，曾经完全按照父母安排好的时间表生活。每个工作日晚上，她一本接一本完成练习册；周末被钢琴、数学、公开演讲课程分割得一干二净，连片刻休息都没有。她曾经以为快乐只来源于高分和老师的表扬，可内心时常感到空虚疲惫。去年寒假，她坦诚地和妈妈倾诉了自己的压力，提议每周日留出三小时完全自由的私人时间，不安排任何学习任务。妈妈起初犹豫不决，但最终还是同意给她一次尝试的机会。 在这三小时里，埃琳娜会收走所有课本和手机。她在小区花园里漫步观鸟，读儿时喜爱的旧故事书，或是单纯坐在窗边随意涂鸦，不必担心画作是否完美。一开始，她会因为 “浪费时间” 而心神不安，但几周过去，她收获了意想不到的平静。面对难度大的考试时，她不再轻易焦虑，平日里的学习效率也大幅提升。心理学家解释，自主掌控的闲暇时光如同精神燃料：它缓解长期压力、让大脑恢复活力，使我们重新投入学习时注意力更加集中。 很多人误以为空闲时间等同于懒惰。事实上，专属自己的时光能创造独一份的快乐，不是因为我们逃避努力，而是我们拥有了与真实自我对话的空间。繁重的学习是成长的必经之路，但它不该吞噬我们全部的生活。无论你喜欢种植绿植、写日记，还是独自漫步安静的街道，都要牢牢守住属于自己的时间。那些不慌不忙的瞬间，藏着真挚温暖、无可替代的快乐。 Passage B Guard Your Leisure to Harvest Inner Happiness Source: Smithsonian Education, 2026-03-14 In this fast-paced competitive society, the idea “My time, my joy” becomes increasingly important for teenagers. Most adults judge leisure by its “usefulness”: if an activity cannot improve grades or master new skills, they regard it as a waste of time. This narrow view pushes young people to abandon all hobbies and personal relaxation, leading to growing mental tiredness and loss of individual happiness. We need to learn that time spent just for joy has irreplaceable value in our growth. Mia, a junior high student from America, loved handmade clay art since she was little. However, her parents stopped all her clay courses two years ago, thinking the hobby took too much study time. Without any personal leisure, Mia slowly lost enthusiasm for schoolwork and often quarreled with her family out of hidden stress. Later, her art teacher visited her home and explained the benefits of personal leisure: hobbies calm emotions, develop creativity and help students balance pressure. Her parents finally allowed her one hour of clay-making every evening after homework. During that one quiet hour, Mia forgets exams and rankings completely. She kneads colorful clay freely to make small animals and little houses, pouring all her feelings into every piece of work. This short daily break cheers her up greatly. She becomes gentle again and finishes homework more efficiently after enjoying her clay time. Mia says this hour is the happiest part of each day, because it is fully hers, with no demands or expectations from others. True joy cannot be measured by achievements or prizes. It grows in the time we control freely. Studying hard builds our ability, but personal leisure nourishes our heart. We do not need to give up study to own happy time; we only need to learn to balance tasks and self-relaxation. Say no to overloaded training and meaningless digital scrolling, reserve a small piece of time just for yourself. When we hold our own time gently and use it for what we love, we will harvest pure, long-lasting joy that belongs only to us — my time, my precious joy. 长难句解析 原句： （第四段最后一句）When we hold our own time gently and use it for what we love, we will harvest pure, long-lasting joy that belongs only to us — my time, my precious joy. 译文：当我们好好把握属于自己的时间，用来做热爱的事，就能收获纯粹、长久、只属于我们自己的快乐 —— 我的时光，我珍贵的欢喜。 分析：本句是复合句。When 引导时间状语从句；从句中 what we love 是宾语从句，作介词 for 的宾语；主句中 that belongs only to us 是定语从句，修饰先行词 joy。 译文 守护闲暇，收获内心幸福 来源：Smithsonian Education, 2026-03-14 在这个节奏飞快、充满竞争的社会，“我的时间，我的快乐” 这一理念对青少年而言愈发重要。大多数成年人评判闲暇时光只看它是否 “有用”：如果一件事无法提高成绩、习得新技能，他们就会认为这是浪费时间。这种狭隘的观念迫使年轻人舍弃所有爱好与个人放松时间，导致他们身心愈发疲惫，也渐渐失去独属于自己的快乐。我们应当明白，只为愉悦自我而度过的时光，在成长过程中有着无可替代的价值。 来自美国的初中生米娅从小热爱手工黏土创作。然而两年前，她的父母叫停了她所有黏土课程，认为这项爱好占用了太多学习时间。失去全部私人休闲时间后，米娅慢慢对课业失去热情，还常常因积压的压力和家人争吵。后来她的美术老师上门家访，向父母解释了私人闲暇的诸多益处：爱好能平复情绪、培养创造力，还能帮助学生平衡压力。她的父母最终同意，允许她每天写完作业后拥有一小时黏土创作时间。 在这安静的一小时里，米娅彻底抛开考试与排名。她随意揉捏彩色黏土，制作小动物和小房子，把全部情绪倾注到每一件作品之中。这短暂的每日休憩极大地治愈了她。她重新变得温和，在黏土时光过后，完成作业的效率也更高了。米娅说这一小时是一天中最幸福的时刻，因为这段时间完全属于她，没有任何人的要求与期待。 真正的快乐无法用成就或奖项衡量，它诞生于我们自主掌控的时光里。刻苦学习塑造我们的能力，而私人闲暇滋养我们的心灵。我们不必放弃学习才能拥有快乐时光，只需学会平衡课业任务与自我放松。学会拒绝超负荷的补习班和无意义的短视频刷屏，为自己预留一小段专属时光。当我们好好把握属于自己的时间，用来做热爱的事，就能收获纯粹、长久、只属于我们自己的快乐 —— 我的时光，我珍贵的欢喜。 1. It’s not lazy to reserve personal time; it’s a wise way to balance study and inner peace. 预留专属时光并非偷懒，而是平衡学业与内心平静的明智之举。 2. Those unplanned hours fully belonging to me are the source of my purest joy. 那些完全由自己支配、无需规划的时光，是我纯粹快乐的源泉。 3. Many people only value productive time, ignoring the great happiness hidden in quiet leisure. 很多人只看重有收获的忙碌时光，却忽略了静谧闲暇中藏着莫大欢喜。 4. Properly guarding my spare time helps me refresh my mind and improve learning efficiency. 妥善守护课余时光，能让大脑恢复活力，进而提升学习效率。 5. True joy never comes from endless training or screen scrolling, but from hobbies I choose freely. 真正的快乐从不来自无休止的补习与刷手机，而是源于我自主选择的爱好。 6. Only when we take charge of our own time can we get close to our true selves. 唯有掌控属于自己的时光，我们才能贴近最真实的自我。 7. Leisure time spent just for fun has irreplaceable value in teenagers’ growth. 只为愉悦自我的闲暇时光，在青少年的成长中拥有无可替代的价值。 8. We should learn to say no to overloaded tasks to leave space for our own happiness. 我们要学会拒绝超负荷的任务，为独属于自己的快乐留出空间。 9. Short daily me-time relieves long-term pressure and fills our hearts with gentle warmth. 每日一小段独处时光，能缓解长久压力，让心底盛满温柔暖意。 10. Busy study shapes our skills, while self-controlled leisure nourishes our soul. 忙碌的学业塑造我们的能力，自主掌控的闲暇滋养我们的心灵。 11. It’s a misunderstanding that free time equals waste of life. 认为空闲时光就是虚度人生，这是一种误解。 12. Whether I draw, walk or make clay, every minute of my own time brings unique delight. 无论是画画、散步还是做黏土，属于我的每一分钟都带来独一无二的愉悦。 13. Simple quiet moments under my control create lasting joy that no prize can match. 由我掌控的简单静谧时刻，造就奖项无法比拟的长久快乐。 14. Balancing schoolwork and personal leisure makes us both hard-working and happy. 平衡课业与私人闲暇，让我们既能勤奋努力，又能心生欢愉。 15. My time belongs only to me, and the joy from it is the most precious gift to myself. 我的时光只属于我，从中收获的快乐，是送给自己最珍贵的礼物。 Passage 1 （2025·江苏镇江·中考真题） One day, my friend Mareya called. “Nora, I will travel to Hawaii. There will be beaches, sandcastles…” she said. Her words made me have a strange feeling. I was happy for her but envied her a little. “Oh, well,” I thought, “I will have a hiking trip with Olivia. That will also be very interesting.” Later that day, I learnt Olivia would visit her uncle’s new beach house. So we had to put off our hiking trip. “I’m really sorry. But you understand, right?” she said. “Oh, sure,” I said. I tried to push the corners of my mouth into a smile, but inside, my heart was sinking. At that time, I saw Mrs. Daisy in her garden. I offered to help her water the flowers in the hope of taking my mind off unpleasant feelings. Watering the flowers made me feel good but I still couldn’t stop wishing I could also be on holiday with my friends. “Be careful!” Mrs. Daisy said. “That is a harmful plant. I’ll get it out of here.” Suddenly, I realized what I was watering. Mrs. Daisy was aware of my bad mood, smiled at me and said, “Dear Nora, plants or feelings, we should watch what we’re watering, right? If we nourish the harmful plants or bad feelings, then that’s what we have. But if we try to nourish the beautiful flowers or good feelings, then that’s what we get.” “I guess that makes sense,” I said, “but I fail to tell my mind to stop being sad.” “Just let yourself feel all of your feelings,” she said, “but after a while, you can try feeding your mind with happier thoughts. Talk to a friend, go for a run or just enjoy the beauty of a flower.” I thought Mrs. Daisy’s advice was worth trying. So I called Olivia at once. After sharing my feelings with her, I cheered up again and moreover we both agreed to have our hiking trip after she came back. —Adapted from the story by Lissa Rovetch 1．How did Nora feel when she knew about two friends’ plans? A．She got excited. B．She became curious. C．She felt a little blue. D．She was very angry. 2．Why did Nora offer to help Mrs. Daisy water the flowers? A．Because Mrs. Daisy needed Nora’s help. B．Because Mrs. Daisy invited Nora to enjoy flowers. C．Because Nora hoped to ask Mrs. Daisy for advice. D．Because Nora wanted to forget unpleasant feelings. 3．What does the underlined word “nourish” probably mean in Paragraph 4? A．Put something away. B．Leave something alone. C．Help something grow. D．Make something disappear. 4．What does the writer really want to tell readers? A．Watering flowers to change moods. B．Helping old people to gain wisdom. C．Ways of getting along well with friends. D．Dealing with our feelings in a proper way. 【答案】1．C 2．D 3．C 4．D 【导语】本文主要讲述了 Nora 因朋友的假期计划与自己的安排冲突而心情低落，通过帮 Daisy 夫人浇花并得到她的开导，最终学会以恰当方式处理情绪的故事。 1．细节理解题。根据“I tried to push the corners of my mouth into a smile, but inside, my heart was sinking.”以及“but I still couldn’t stop wishing I could also be on holiday with my friends.”可知，当 Nora 得知两位朋友的计划后，心里有些难过、低落。“blue”有“忧郁的；难过的”之意，所以她感觉有点沮丧。故选C。 2．细节理解题。根据“I offered to help her water the flowers in the hope of taking my mind off unpleasant feelings.”可知，Nora 主动帮 Daisy 夫人浇花是因为她想忘记不愉快的情绪。故选D。 3．词句猜测题。根据“If we nourish the harmful plants or bad feelings, then that’s what we have. But if we try to nourish the beautiful flowers or good feelings, then that’s what we get.”结合语境，此处是说如果我们“滋养”有害的植物或坏情绪，那我们拥有的就是这些；如果滋养美丽的花或好情绪，得到的就是美好事物。所以“nourish”意为“帮助……生长；滋养”，与“Help something grow”意思相近。故选C。 4．主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章通过 Nora 的经历，传达了要以恰当的方式处理自己的情绪（如允许自己感受情绪，之后用更快乐的想法滋养心灵）这一主旨。所以作者真正想告诉读者的是要恰当地处理我们的情绪。故选D。 一、重难词汇（12 个） envy /ˈenvi/v. 羡慕，妒忌 put off 推迟，延期 sink /sɪŋk/v. 下沉；（心情）低落 unpleasant /ʌnˈpleznt/adj. 不愉快的，难受的 harmful /ˈhɑːmfl/adj. 有害的 aware /əˈweə(r)/adj. 意识到的，察觉到的 nourish /ˈnʌrɪʃ/v. 滋养，培育 make sense 有道理，说得通 feed /fiːd/v. 滋养，供给 cheer up 振作起来，开心起来 moreover /mɔːrˈəʊvə(r)/adv. 此外，而且 adapt /əˈdæpt/v. 改编，改写 二、长难句解析 原句：（第四段第五句）If we nourish the harmful plants or bad feelings, then that’s what we have. But if we try to nourish the beautiful flowers or good feelings, then that’s what we get. 译文：如果我们一味滋养杂草与负面情绪，我们就只会收获糟糕；但如果我们用心培育鲜花与美好心境，我们便能拥有快乐。 分析：本句由两个 if 引导的条件状语从句构成并列复合句；两个分句中 what we have /what we get 均为 what 引导的表语从句，作 is 的表语。 Passage 2 （2026·江苏扬州·中考真题）It was 1912, in the Williamsburg section of Brooklyn, New York. Francie Nolan and her younger brother, Neeley, spent Saturday collecting and selling paper, metal, rubber and other junk for money. They spent half of the money and brought half home to their parents. Francie’s home was in a third-floor walk-up flat in the shadow of the hardy ailanthus tree, the “only tree that grew out of cement (水泥),” a tree “that liked poor people.” ... It was two o’clock. Francie walked towards the library. The library was a little old place. Francie thought that all the books in the world were in that library and she planned to read all the books in the world. She was reading a book a day in alphabetical (按字母表顺序的) order, even the boring ones. She had been reading a book a day for a long time now and she was still in the B’s. On the librarian’s desk stood a neat row of freshly sharpened pencils and the returned books waiting to be put back. “When I have my own home, I’ll have a desk like this, with pencils, ‘always ready for writing,’ and books...books...books...” Saturdays were different. She treated herself by reading a book not in the alphabetical order. On that day, she asked the librarian to recommend a book. “Could you recommend a good book for a girl?” “How old?” The librarian did not even look up. “She is eleven.” The librarian never knew the little girl who took a book out every day and two on Saturday. Francie hurried home, holding the books close. The story of Francois Villon was more wonderful each time she read it. Sometimes she worried the book would be lost in the library. She had once started copying the book in a two-cent notebook. “When I grow up, I’ll work hard, save money and buy every single book I like.” Now it was her weekly fire-escape-sitting time. She put glass, candy and book on the windowsill and climbed out on the fire-escape (安全梯). Once out there, she was living in a tree. Francie breathed the warm air, watched the dancing leaf shadows, ate the candy and drank the cooled water in-between reading. The afternoon passed. 1. What can you learn from the first paragraph? A．How old Francie Nolan was. B．What Francie’s parents did for a living. C．What kind of family Francie came from. D．How much Francie and her brother made. 2. What is Francie’s favorite thing to do? A．Collecting materials for recycling. B．Chatting with the librarian. C．Reading books. D．Watching leaves. 3. Which of the following is true about Francie’s reading habits? A．Copying each book she finished reading. B．Collecting her favorite books in her study. C．Reading every book in the library from Z through A． D．Reading a book not in the order of the letters on Saturday. 4. Which of the following can best describe Francie Nolan? A．Strong-willed and hopeful. B．Brave and fashionable. C．Hard-working and humorous. D．Curious and creative. 【答案】1. C 2. C 3. D 4. A 【导语】本文节选自《布鲁克林有棵树》，讲述了小女孩弗兰西·诺兰的生活片段，包括她收集废品、在图书馆阅读以及对未来的憧憬。 【详解】1. 第一段描述了弗兰西的家庭环境：“Francie’s home was in a third-floor walk-up flat...the ‘only tree that grew out of cement,’ a tree ‘that liked poor people.’”，说明她来自贫困家庭。 2. 文中多次描写弗兰西去图书馆借书、读书，第三段“She was reading a book a day...”、第四段“When I have my own home, I’ll have a desk like this, with pencils...and books...books...books...”，说明阅读是她最喜欢的事。 3. 第五段指出：“Saturdays were different. She treated herself by reading a book not in the alphabetical order.”，说明周六她读不按字母顺序排列的书。 4. 弗兰西计划读遍图书馆所有的书，并憧憬未来拥有自己的书桌和书籍，说明她意志坚定且充满希望。 一、重难词汇（12 个） junk /dʒʌŋk/n. 废品，废旧杂物 hardy /ˈhɑːdi/adj. 生命力顽强的，耐贫瘠的 cement /sɪˈment/n. 水泥 alphabetical /ˌælfəˈbetɪkl/adj. 按字母顺序排列的 librarian /laɪˈbreəriən/n. 图书管理员 recommend /ˌrekəˈmend/v. 推荐，举荐 copy /ˈkɒpi/v. 抄写，誊写 fire-escape /ˈfaɪə ɪskeɪp/n. 户外安全梯 windowsill /ˈwɪndəʊsɪl/n. 窗台 shadow /ˈʃædəʊ/n. 影子，阴影 weekly /ˈwiːkli/adj. 每周一次的 section /ˈsekʃn/n. 片区，区域 二、长难句解析 原句：（第一段最后一句）Francie’s home was in a third-floor walk-up flat in the shadow of the hardy ailanthus tree, the “only tree that grew out of cement,” a tree “that liked poor people.” 译文：弗朗西的家在一栋无电梯公寓的三楼，房屋掩映在生命力顽强的臭椿树下，这是 “唯一能从水泥地里生长出来的树”，一棵 “偏爱穷苦之人” 的树。 分析：本句是复合句。主句为主系表结构；两个同位语 the “only tree that grew out of cement” 与 a tree “that liked poor people” 共同修饰 the hardy ailanthus tree；两处 that 均引导定语从句，分别修饰先行词 tree。 Passage 1 （2026·广东广州·二模）Having a hobby is not just about having fun in your free time — it’s also great for your mind and body. Let’s explore the key benefits hobbies bring to your life! An important benefit of hobbies is that they help you focus on the present. When you do activities like painting, gardening, or playing the guitar, you need to pay full attention. This helps you stop thinking about past problems or future worries. When you really lose yourself in these activities, you might not notice time passing. As a result, you will feel less stressed and more clear-headed. Hobbies also improve your ability to solve problems creatively. They often teach you to think outside the box. Practising hobbies is like exercise for your brain. Little by little, you’ll be able to come up with creative ideas in other areas of your life. Besides, following group hobbies or joining clubs helps build social connections. This is very good for your mind because it makes you feel part of a community where people share your interests and support each other. Whether it’s a music club, a local sports team, or a reading group, making friends through shared hobbies can bring you great joy. What’s more, depending on the hobby, you can also experience physical benefits. Activities like playing the piano or making sculptures are excellent for helping your hands and eyes work together better. Some hobbies, like dancing, can make your body more flexible (灵活的). These physical benefits, in turn, give you better health and a sense of achievement. Hobbies benefit our life in many ways, so it’s never too late to develop your favorite hobby. 1. How do hobbies help people solve problems? A．They help people avoid hard problems. B．They encourage people to think in new ways. C．They show people how others solve problems. D．They teach people the steps in solving problems. 2. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A．Group hobbies can make a person feel accepted. B．Hobbies help improve the body more than the mind. C．Different hobbies provide the same physical health benefits. D．Hobbies benefit people by improving their future job skills. 3. What is the main idea of the fifth paragraph? A．To compare the benefits of different hobbies. B．To explain how hobbies provide physical advantages. C．To show how hobbies about art can be good for health. D．To introduce some hobbies that work like normal exercise. 4. In which part of a magazine can we find this passage most probably? A．Social Life. B．Creative Thinking. C．Personal Life. D．Skill Development. 【答案】1. B 2. A 3. B 4. C 【导语】本文介绍了爱好给人们身心带来的多重益处。 【详解】1. 根据第三段“Hobbies also improve your ability to solve problems creatively. They often teach you to think outside the box.”可知，爱好能提高创造性解决问题的能力，“think outside the box”意为跳出思维定势，即用新的方式思考。 2. 根据第四段“This is very good for your mind because it makes you feel part of a community where people share your interests and support each other.”可知，参与群体爱好让人感觉是社区的一部分并得到支持，这会让人感到被接纳。 3. 第五段首句“What’s more, depending on the hobby, you can also experience physical benefits.”是该段主题句，随后列举了弹钢琴、雕塑、跳舞等例子来说明爱好带来的身体上的好处。 4. 文章主要讲述了爱好对个人身心、社交及创造力等多方面的益处，旨在改善个人的生活质量。C项“个人生活”最能概括全文关于爱好如何有益于生活的主题。 Passage 2 （2023·广东广州·一模）People like video games for different reasons. Playing a game like Quake II allows people to have an imaginary battle, where they can shoot or destroy their opponents. This sort of game can be exciting for some. Others find that it helps to take away their stress. Quake II is an example of a first-person-shooter (FPS) game, one of the most popular kinds of games. There seems to be a thrill that comes with fighting, especially when it is with other people on the Internet. Other games provide a different world for the player to enter. These are called adventure games. The games may place a player in a different time or place or create an entirely imaginary world. A player may be able to win by fighting, using strategy, or solving puzzles, but the most important point is the different world of the game.

Scientists have found that experienced birdwatchers develop brain differences that help them recognize birds quickly. This shows that bird-watching can change the functioning of the brain, just like learning a language or playing an instrument does. When we learn or practice a new skill, our brain reorganizes itself, making certain pathways in our brain stronger and smoother. This ability is called neuroplasticity (神经可塑性). Some scientists have found that musicians have changes in the parts of the brain related to hearing, and athletes have changes in the parts related to body movement. To see if bird-watching also changes the brain, a team of scientists at York University in Canada studied 48 birdwatchers. Half were experts, and half were beginners. Both groups were shown a picture of a bird for less than 4 seconds, and about 10 seconds later, they had to find the same bird among four similar-looking birds. The task was repeated 72 times. As was expected, expert birders did much better. On average, they correctly recognized 83% of local birds and 61% of non-local birds. Beginners only got 44% correct for both kinds. Brain scans showed that, when recognizing birds, expert birders had more activity than beginners in brain areas related to object recognition, attention, and memory. This showed that continuous practice in bird-watching reshapes the brain. The researchers said that other hobbies using similar skills, like attention and memory, might bring similar benefits. “If you’re not into birds, try learning to play the guitar. It may cause similar brain changes,” said Erik Wing, the lead scientist of the study. 1. In what way does the writer explain neuroplasticity in paragraph 2? A．By listing numbers. B．By comparing two ideas. C．By giving examples. D．By telling a personal story. 2. How did the scientists at York University carry out the study? A．Scanned the brains of the birders and musicians. B．Tested the birders' hearing and body movement. C．Asked the birders to name 4 birds in 10 seconds. D．Compared the birders' ability to recognize birds. 3. Why did Erik Wing mention playing the guitar in the last paragraph? A．To encourage birdwatchers to play the guitar. B．To suggest another hobby that improves the brain. C．To let readers know guitar requires more attention. D．To introduce only musical instruments as a better choice. 4. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage? A．Bird-watching Can Reshape Your Brain B．How Scientists Studied Birdwatchers C．Bird-watching Improves Mental Health D．The Secret to an Expert Birdwatcher 【答案】1. C 2. D 3. B 4. A 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了观鸟这项爱好如何通过神经可塑性改变大脑结构，同时提到其他类似的技能型爱好也可能带来相似的大脑益处。 【详解】1. 原文第二段提到“Some scientists have found that musicians have changes in the parts of the brain related to hearing, and athletes have changes in the parts related to body movement.”，作者通过列举音乐家和运动员的例子，来解释神经可塑性这一概念，因此作者是通过举例的方式解释这一概念的。 2. 原文第三段提到“To see if bird-watching also changes the brain, a team of scientists at York University in Canada studied 48 birdwatchers. Half were experts, and half were beginners. Both groups were shown a picture of a bird for less than 4 seconds, and about 10 seconds later, they had to find the same bird among four similar-looking birds.”，由此可知，约克大学的科学家通过对比专家和新手观鸟者识别鸟类的能力来开展研究。 3. 原文第五段提到“The researchers said that other hobbies using similar skills, like attention and memory, might bring similar benefits. ‘If you’re not into birds, try learning to play the guitar. It may cause similar brain changes,’ said Erik Wing, the lead scientist of the study.”，由此可知，Erik Wing提到弹吉他是为了推荐另一种能改善大脑的爱好，它和观鸟一样能带来相似的大脑益处。 4. 全文围绕观鸟如何通过持续练习重塑大脑展开，介绍了相关研究和原理，因此最佳标题是“Bird-watching Can Reshape Your Brain”。 Passage 4 （2026·广东深圳·一模）以下是一则短文，请阅读全文，并从下列方框里的六个句子中选择五个还原到原文中，使文的意思完整、连贯。 Wordle, an online game, has remained popular since it came out.

Many parents believe every spare minute must be filled with productive learning, so they seldom leave blank hours for their kids to follow their own hearts. Gradually, a large number of young people lose the ability to feel simple happiness, for they have never owned a piece of time completely belonging to themselves. The theme “My time, my joy” reminds every teen to defend their private leisure and find inner peace within self-controlled hours. Elena, a Grade Nine student from London, once lived under a fully arranged timetable. Every weekday evening, she finished one exercise book after another; weekends were split into piano, math and public speaking classes without any break. She used to think joy only came from high exam scores and praise from teachers, yet she often felt empty and tired deep inside. Last winter vacation, she talked sincerely with her mother about her pressure, proposing to reserve three hours every Sunday as totally free personal time with no study tasks allowed. Her mother hesitated at first but finally agreed to give her a chance. During those three hours, Elena puts away all textbooks and mobile phones. She wanders around the community garden to watch birds, reads old storybooks she loved in childhood, or simply sits by the window to draw random sketches without worrying about whether they look perfect. At the beginning, she felt uneasy for “wasting time”, but as weeks went by, she gained unexpected calmness. She no longer gets anxious easily when facing difficult exams, and her learning efficiency rises greatly on school days. Psychologists explain that self-owned leisure acts as mental fuel: it relieves long-term pressure and refreshes our brains, making us more focused when we return to study. Lots of people misunderstand that free time equals laziness. In fact, my time creates my unique joy not because we avoid hard work, but because we get space to connect with our true selves. Busy study is necessary for growth, but it should never swallow all our life. Whether you like planting small green plants, writing diaries or walking alone in quiet streets, hold fast to your own time. Those unhurried moments are where genuine joy hides, warm and irreplaceable. 长难句解析 原句：（第一段第三句）Gradually, a large number of young people lose the ability to feel simple happiness, for they have never owned a piece of time completely belonging to themselves. 译文：久而久之，大量年轻人失去了感受简单快乐的能力，因为他们从未拥有一段完全属于自己的时光。 分析：本句是复合句。for 引导原因状语从句，用来解释主句产生的结果；句中 completely belonging to themselves 是现在分词短语作后置定语，修饰 a piece of time。 译文 不受规划的私人时光，才是真正的快乐 来源：British Council Learn English Teens, 2026-04-12 如今，大多数青少年的日程被繁重的作业、没完没了的课外辅导和各类培训班排得满满当当。许多家长认为每一分空闲时间都必须用来进行有收获的学习，因此他们几乎不会留给孩子随心做自己喜欢事的空白时间。久而久之，大量年轻人失去了感受简单快乐的能力，因为他们从未拥有一段完全属于自己的时光。“我的时间，我的快乐” 这一主题提醒每一位青少年，要守护属于自己的闲暇时光，在自主掌控的时光里寻得内心的平静。 来自伦敦的九年级学生埃琳娜，曾经完全按照父母安排好的时间表生活。每个工作日晚上，她一本接一本完成练习册；周末被钢琴、数学、公开演讲课程分割得一干二净，连片刻休息都没有。她曾经以为快乐只来源于高分和老师的表扬，可内心时常感到空虚疲惫。去年寒假，她坦诚地和妈妈倾诉了自己的压力，提议每周日留出三小时完全自由的私人时间，不安排任何学习任务。妈妈起初犹豫不决，但最终还是同意给她一次尝试的机会。 在这三小时里，埃琳娜会收走所有课本和手机。她在小区花园里漫步观鸟，读儿时喜爱的旧故事书，或是单纯坐在窗边随意涂鸦，不必担心画作是否完美。一开始，她会因为 “浪费时间” 而心神不安，但几周过去，她收获了意想不到的平静。面对难度大的考试时，她不再轻易焦虑，平日里的学习效率也大幅提升。心理学家解释，自主掌控的闲暇时光如同精神燃料：它缓解长期压力、让大脑恢复活力，使我们重新投入学习时注意力更加集中。 很多人误以为空闲时间等同于懒惰。事实上，专属自己的时光能创造独一份的快乐，不是因为我们逃避努力，而是我们拥有了与真实自我对话的空间。繁重的学习是成长的必经之路，但它不该吞噬我们全部的生活。无论你喜欢种植绿植、写日记，还是独自漫步安静的街道，都要牢牢守住属于自己的时间。那些不慌不忙的瞬间，藏着真挚温暖、无可替代的快乐。 Passage B Guard Your Leisure to Harvest Inner Happiness Source: Smithsonian Education, 2026-03-14 In this fast-paced competitive society, the idea “My time, my joy” becomes increasingly important for teenagers. Most adults judge leisure by its “usefulness”: if an activity cannot improve grades or master new skills, they regard it as a waste of time. This narrow view pushes young people to abandon all hobbies and personal relaxation, leading to growing mental tiredness and loss of individual happiness. We need to learn that time spent just for joy has irreplaceable value in our growth. Mia, a junior high student from America, loved handmade clay art since she was little. However, her parents stopped all her clay courses two years ago, thinking the hobby took too much study time. Without any personal leisure, Mia slowly lost enthusiasm for schoolwork and often quarreled with her family out of hidden stress. Later, her art teacher visited her home and explained the benefits of personal leisure: hobbies calm emotions, develop creativity and help students balance pressure. Her parents finally allowed her one hour of clay-making every evening after homework. During that one quiet hour, Mia forgets exams and rankings completely. She kneads colorful clay freely to make small animals and little houses, pouring all her feelings into every piece of work. This short daily break cheers her up greatly. She becomes gentle again and finishes homework more efficiently after enjoying her clay time. Mia says this hour is the happiest part of each day, because it is fully hers, with no demands or expectations from others. True joy cannot be measured by achievements or prizes. It grows in the time we control freely. Studying hard builds our ability, but personal leisure nourishes our heart. We do not need to give up study to own happy time; we only need to learn to balance tasks and self-relaxation. Say no to overloaded training and meaningless digital scrolling, reserve a small piece of time just for yourself. When we hold our own time gently and use it for what we love, we will harvest pure, long-lasting joy that belongs only to us — my time, my precious joy. 长难句解析 原句： （第四段最后一句）When we hold our own time gently and use it for what we love, we will harvest pure, long-lasting joy that belongs only to us — my time, my precious joy. 译文：当我们好好把握属于自己的时间，用来做热爱的事，就能收获纯粹、长久、只属于我们自己的快乐 —— 我的时光，我珍贵的欢喜。 分析：本句是复合句。When 引导时间状语从句；从句中 what we love 是宾语从句，作介词 for 的宾语；主句中 that belongs only to us 是定语从句，修饰先行词 joy。 译文 守护闲暇，收获内心幸福 来源：Smithsonian Education, 2026-03-14 在这个节奏飞快、充满竞争的社会，“我的时间，我的快乐” 这一理念对青少年而言愈发重要。大多数成年人评判闲暇时光只看它是否 “有用”：如果一件事无法提高成绩、习得新技能，他们就会认为这是浪费时间。这种狭隘的观念迫使年轻人舍弃所有爱好与个人放松时间，导致他们身心愈发疲惫，也渐渐失去独属于自己的快乐。我们应当明白，只为愉悦自我而度过的时光，在成长过程中有着无可替代的价值。 来自美国的初中生米娅从小热爱手工黏土创作。然而两年前，她的父母叫停了她所有黏土课程，认为这项爱好占用了太多学习时间。失去全部私人休闲时间后，米娅慢慢对课业失去热情，还常常因积压的压力和家人争吵。后来她的美术老师上门家访，向父母解释了私人闲暇的诸多益处：爱好能平复情绪、培养创造力，还能帮助学生平衡压力。她的父母最终同意，允许她每天写完作业后拥有一小时黏土创作时间。 在这安静的一小时里，米娅彻底抛开考试与排名。她随意揉捏彩色黏土，制作小动物和小房子，把全部情绪倾注到每一件作品之中。这短暂的每日休憩极大地治愈了她。她重新变得温和，在黏土时光过后，完成作业的效率也更高了。米娅说这一小时是一天中最幸福的时刻，因为这段时间完全属于她，没有任何人的要求与期待。 真正的快乐无法用成就或奖项衡量，它诞生于我们自主掌控的时光里。刻苦学习塑造我们的能力，而私人闲暇滋养我们的心灵。我们不必放弃学习才能拥有快乐时光，只需学会平衡课业任务与自我放松。学会拒绝超负荷的补习班和无意义的短视频刷屏，为自己预留一小段专属时光。当我们好好把握属于自己的时间，用来做热爱的事，就能收获纯粹、长久、只属于我们自己的快乐 —— 我的时光，我珍贵的欢喜。 1. It’s not lazy to reserve personal time; it’s a wise way to balance study and inner peace. 预留专属时光并非偷懒，而是平衡学业与内心平静的明智之举。 2. Those unplanned hours fully belonging to me are the source of my purest joy. 那些完全由自己支配、无需规划的时光，是我纯粹快乐的源泉。 3. Many people only value productive time, ignoring the great happiness hidden in quiet leisure. 很多人只看重有收获的忙碌时光，却忽略了静谧闲暇中藏着莫大欢喜。 4. Properly guarding my spare time helps me refresh my mind and improve learning efficiency. 妥善守护课余时光，能让大脑恢复活力，进而提升学习效率。 5. True joy never comes from endless training or screen scrolling, but from hobbies I choose freely. 真正的快乐从不来自无休止的补习与刷手机，而是源于我自主选择的爱好。 6. Only when we take charge of our own time can we get close to our true selves. 唯有掌控属于自己的时光，我们才能贴近最真实的自我。 7. Leisure time spent just for fun has irreplaceable value in teenagers’ growth. 只为愉悦自我的闲暇时光，在青少年的成长中拥有无可替代的价值。 8. We should learn to say no to overloaded tasks to leave space for our own happiness. 我们要学会拒绝超负荷的任务，为独属于自己的快乐留出空间。 9. Short daily me-time relieves long-term pressure and fills our hearts with gentle warmth. 每日一小段独处时光，能缓解长久压力，让心底盛满温柔暖意。 10. Busy study shapes our skills, while self-controlled leisure nourishes our soul. 忙碌的学业塑造我们的能力，自主掌控的闲暇滋养我们的心灵。 11. It’s a misunderstanding that free time equals waste of life. 认为空闲时光就是虚度人生，这是一种误解。 12. Whether I draw, walk or make clay, every minute of my own time brings unique delight. 无论是画画、散步还是做黏土，属于我的每一分钟都带来独一无二的愉悦。 13. Simple quiet moments under my control create lasting joy that no prize can match. 由我掌控的简单静谧时刻，造就奖项无法比拟的长久快乐。 14. Balancing schoolwork and personal leisure makes us both hard-working and happy. 平衡课业与私人闲暇，让我们既能勤奋努力，又能心生欢愉。 15. My time belongs only to me, and the joy from it is the most precious gift to myself. 我的时光只属于我，从中收获的快乐，是送给自己最珍贵的礼物。 Passage 1 （2025·江苏镇江·中考真题） One day, my friend Mareya called. “Nora, I will travel to Hawaii. There will be beaches, sandcastles…” she said. Her words made me have a strange feeling. I was happy for her but envied her a little. “Oh, well,” I thought, “I will have a hiking trip with Olivia. That will also be very interesting.” Later that day, I learnt Olivia would visit her uncle’s new beach house. So we had to put off our hiking trip. “I’m really sorry. But you understand, right?” she said. “Oh, sure,” I said. I tried to push the corners of my mouth into a smile, but inside, my heart was sinking. At that time, I saw Mrs. Daisy in her garden. I offered to help her water the flowers in the hope of taking my mind off unpleasant feelings. Watering the flowers made me feel good but I still couldn’t stop wishing I could also be on holiday with my friends. “Be careful!” Mrs. Daisy said. “That is a harmful plant. I’ll get it out of here.” Suddenly, I realized what I was watering. Mrs. Daisy was aware of my bad mood, smiled at me and said, “Dear Nora, plants or feelings, we should watch what we’re watering, right? If we nourish the harmful plants or bad feelings, then that’s what we have. But if we try to nourish the beautiful flowers or good feelings, then that’s what we get.” “I guess that makes sense,” I said, “but I fail to tell my mind to stop being sad.” “Just let yourself feel all of your feelings,” she said, “but after a while, you can try feeding your mind with happier thoughts. Talk to a friend, go for a run or just enjoy the beauty of a flower.” I thought Mrs. Daisy’s advice was worth trying. So I called Olivia at once. After sharing my feelings with her, I cheered up again and moreover we both agreed to have our hiking trip after she came back. —Adapted from the story by Lissa Rovetch 1．How did Nora feel when she knew about two friends’ plans?

Francie Nolan and her younger brother, Neeley, spent Saturday collecting and selling paper, metal, rubber and other junk for money. They spent half of the money and brought half home to their parents. Francie’s home was in a third-floor walk-up flat in the shadow of the hardy ailanthus tree, the “only tree that grew out of cement (水泥),” a tree “that liked poor people.” ... It was two o’clock. Francie walked towards the library. The library was a little old place. Francie thought that all the books in the world were in that library and she planned to read all the books in the world. She was reading a book a day in alphabetical (按字母表顺序的) order, even the boring ones. She had been reading a book a day for a long time now and she was still in the B’s. On the librarian’s desk stood a neat row of freshly sharpened pencils and the returned books waiting to be put back. “When I have my own home, I’ll have a desk like this, with pencils, ‘always ready for writing,’ and books...books...books...” Saturdays were different. She treated herself by reading a book not in the alphabetical order. On that day, she asked the librarian to recommend a book. “Could you recommend a good book for a girl?” “How old?” The librarian did not even look up. “She is eleven.” The librarian never knew the little girl who took a book out every day and two on Saturday. Francie hurried home, holding the books close. The story of Francois Villon was more wonderful each time she read it. Sometimes she worried the book would be lost in the library. She had once started copying the book in a two-cent notebook. “When I grow up, I’ll work hard, save money and buy every single book I like.” Now it was her weekly fire-escape-sitting time. She put glass, candy and book on the windowsill and climbed out on the fire-escape (安全梯). Once out there, she was living in a tree. Francie breathed the warm air, watched the dancing leaf shadows, ate the candy and drank the cooled water in-between reading. The afternoon passed. 1. What can you learn from the first paragraph?

Let’s explore the key benefits hobbies bring to your life! An important benefit of hobbies is that they help you focus on the present. When you do activities like painting, gardening, or playing the guitar, you need to pay full attention. This helps you stop thinking about past problems or future worries. When you really lose yourself in these activities, you might not notice time passing. As a result, you will feel less stressed and more clear-headed. Hobbies also improve your ability to solve problems creatively. They often teach you to think outside the box. Practising hobbies is like exercise for your brain. Little by little, you’ll be able to come up with creative ideas in other areas of your life. Besides, following group hobbies or joining clubs helps build social connections. This is very good for your mind because it makes you feel part of a community where people share your interests and support each other. Whether it’s a music club, a local sports team, or a reading group, making friends through shared hobbies can bring you great joy. What’s more, depending on the hobby, you can also experience physical benefits. Activities like playing the piano or making sculptures are excellent for helping your hands and eyes work together better. Some hobbies, like dancing, can make your body more flexible (灵活的).

Scientists have found that experienced birdwatchers develop brain differences that help them recognize birds quickly. This shows that bird-watching can change the functioning of the brain, just like learning a language or playing an instrument does. When we learn or practice a new skill, our brain reorganizes itself, making certain pathways in our brain stronger and smoother. This ability is called neuroplasticity (神经可塑性). Some scientists have found that musicians have changes in the parts of the brain related to hearing, and athletes have changes in the parts related to body movement. To see if bird-watching also changes the brain, a team of scientists at York University in Canada studied 48 birdwatchers. Half were experts, and half were beginners. Both groups were shown a picture of a bird for less than 4 seconds, and about 10 seconds later, they had to find the same bird among four similar-looking birds. The task was repeated 72 times. As was expected, expert birders did much better. On average, they correctly recognized 83% of local birds and 61% of non-local birds. Beginners only got 44% correct for both kinds. Brain scans showed that, when recognizing birds, expert birders had more activity than beginners in brain areas related to object recognition, attention, and memory. This showed that continuous practice in bird-watching reshapes the brain. The researchers said that other hobbies using similar skills, like attention and memory, might bring similar benefits. “If you’re not into birds, try learning to play the guitar. It may cause similar brain changes,” said Erik Wing, the lead scientist of the study. 1. In what way does the writer explain neuroplasticity in paragraph 2? A．By listing numbers. B．By comparing two ideas. C．By giving examples. D．By telling a personal story. 2. How did the scientists at York University carry out the study? A．Scanned the brains of the birders and musicians. B．Tested the birders' hearing and body movement. C．Asked the birders to name 4 birds in 10 seconds. D．Compared the birders' ability to recognize birds. 3. Why did Erik Wing mention playing the guitar in the last paragraph? A．To encourage birdwatchers to play the guitar. B．To suggest another hobby that improves the brain. C．To let readers know guitar requires more attention. D．To introduce only musical instruments as a better choice. 4. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage? A．Bird-watching Can Reshape Your Brain B．How Scientists Studied Birdwatchers C．Bird-watching Improves Mental Health D．The Secret to an Expert Birdwatcher Passage 4 （2026·广东深圳·一模）以下是一则短文，请阅读全文，并从下列方框里的六个句子中选择五个还原到原文中，使文的意思完整、连贯。 Wordle, an online game, has remained popular since it came out.
