Experts remind citizens that cardboard boxes and delivery packaging carry hidden health and safety risks if stored indoors. 36.______________ First of all, stacked cardboard boxes release harmful total volatile organic compounds (TVOCs). Ordinary natural TVOCs in daily life are harmless with low density. 37.______________ Containing benzene, toluene and xylene, accumulated TVOCs will greatly threaten human health. Worse still, damp and moldy boxes produce mold-related chemicals that directly irritate people’s respiratory systems. 38.______________ Packages pass through dozens of workers and different transport environments, easily carrying all kinds of germs. They may carry respiratory viruses like flu virus, intestinal viruses such as norovirus, and harmful bacteria including E. coli. Besides, the gaps of cartons provide perfect living and breeding places for pests like cockroaches, whose eggs can be hidden in packaging and brought into your house secretly. Apart from chemical and biological risks, packaging materials also bring fire dangers. Cardboard, foam plastics and woven bags are all flammable. 39.______________ Even a small fire will produce thick toxic smoke, which will put people’s lives in great danger and block escape routes in corridors. 40.______________ Here are practical suggestions for dealing with delivery parcels. People are advised to unpack deliveries outdoors. If you have to open packages indoors, do it near the entrance instead of sofas or beds. Remember to wash hands thoroughly after unpacking and keep rooms well-ventilated if boxes must stay inside temporarily. 选项 A-G A. Another hidden danger lies in various viruses, bacteria and pest eggs on packages. B. However, those released by delivery cartons include many poisonous chemical ingredients. C. Many people ignore these risks and develop bad habits when receiving deliveries. D. It is dangerous to pile up such packaging indoors or in shared building corridors. E. Therefore, we should take practical steps to avoid the risks caused by delivery packaging. F. It’s unnecessary to worry about small amounts of delivery boxes left inside your house. G. Plastic fillers in parcels can also release plasticizers that disturb people’s endocrine system. Passage 2 体裁：心理健康议论文｜难度：★★★★☆ In the age of social media, many people have become used to sharing everything online. A meal, a bad mood, a relationship argument, or even private family moments can quickly appear on public platforms. At first, sharing feels relaxing because it brings attention and interaction. However, over time, excessive exposure may slowly blur the boundary between personal life and public performance. 36.______________ Some people post constantly because they want to feel understood or valued. Yet not everyone watching truly cares about your happiness. According to communication studies, oversharing online can increase emotional pressure and make people depend too much on external validation. The more someone seeks approval from others, the harder it becomes to feel emotionally stable alone. 37.______________ A moment of emotional posting may disappear from your mind after a few days, but screenshots and records can remain on the Internet for years. Many people later regret exposing their relationship problems, financial stress, or personal struggles online. 38.______________ 39.______________ Research from psychology journals has shown that people who often compare their daily lives online suffer higher anxiety and lower life satisfaction. Once people get addicted to online likes and comments, they may design their daily life to look attractive online rather than to live for real inner joy. Mature people understand that privacy is not secrecy; it is self-protection. Not every achievement needs to be announced, and not every sadness needs an audience. Real peace often grows quietly. Some of the happiest people are those who know how to separate public image from private emotional life. Now more people are learning to keep certain warm moments only to themselves. A peaceful dinner, a recovered mood, or a heart-to-heart talk will not lose value without being posted online. 40.______________ Live quietly and let your true life belong to yourself. 选项 A-G A. Another hidden risk of oversharing is the permanent memory of the Internet. B. It is wiser to talk about personal troubles with loyal close friends instead of online strangers. C. It is natural to share all your feelings and daily stories with online followers. D. There is another mental risk caused by frequent online sharing: endless social comparison. E. Too much public sharing will bring various hidden troubles to your daily life. F. Some social media users make a living by posting their daily life online. G. Sometimes the best way to protect your mental energy is to keep your life private. Passage 3 体裁：心理成长议论文｜难度：★★★★☆ We’ve all been there: a sharp remark at work, a careless jab from an acquaintance, a mean comment scrolling past online. Our first instinct is to flush, argue, or replay the words for hours, letting them gnaw at our mood. A 2024 study in Scientific Reports tracked adult responses to negative social feedback, finding that reactive arguing spikes cortisol and prolongs anxiety far longer than calmly disengaging. 36.______________ 37.______________ Psychologists from the American Psychological Association note that verbal put-downs often act as a cheap way to shore up fragile self-esteem, shifting inner stress onto others. Once you separate their inner struggles from your worth, the sting fades. You stop taking every harsh line as truth, and start seeing it as noise driven by their unmet needs and frustrations. Letting words fall does not mean being weak or agreeing with unfair criticism. It means choosing where you focus energy, picking peace over pointless fights. Cognitive reappraisal, a key emotion regulation strategy validated in BMC Psychology research, teaches us to label harsh remarks as others’ opinions, not facts. 38.______________ Small daily practices build this mental muscle over time. Pause three slow breaths before replying when stung; ask yourself if this comment will matter one week later; limit time scrolling comment sections that trigger self-doubt. These tiny steps retrain your brain to disengage fast. Over weeks, you notice less overthinking, better sleep, and more space to enjoy moments with loved ones or focus on personal goals that truly count. This shift also improves relationships with people who matter most. When you stop overreacting to petty squabbles, you listen more deeply to genuine feedback from family, friends and trusted colleagues. You grow able to tell constructive criticism apart from meaningless mockery, absorbing useful advice without carrying unnecessary hurt. 39.______________ At its core, this skill is about reclaiming ownership of your mind and self-worth. You do not have to carry every careless word others toss out. As research consistently shows, emotional detachment from unwarranted negativity lifts mood, boosts resilience and lets you live aligned with your own values. 40.______________ Let those empty words hit the floor and stay there, so you can walk forward lighter, focused on your own path and joy. 选项 A-G A. We give unimportant critics power over our feelings simply by dwelling on their words. B. People around you will feel more relaxed and build trusting connections with you. C. We should argue firmly to defend ourselves whenever we receive bad comments. D. The root of most hurtful words lies in the speaker’s inner troubles rather than your faults. E. Simple peaceful responses work much better than endless angry quarrels. F. Many people enjoy reading online negative comments to reflect on their shortcomings. G. Free yourself from others’ meaningless negative words to chase your own happiness. Passage 4 体裁：科技科普说明文｜难度：★★★★☆ Nowadays, AI has deeply entered our daily life. We use it to chat, write, draw and even edit videos. Most people only focus on its convenience or worry about it replacing human jobs. However, few of us realize that every AI operation has a hidden environmental cost. A recent report from UN University points out that AI’s energy and water footprints are far beyond public imagination. 36.______________ The electricity consumption of AI data centers is surprisingly high. The IEA estimates that global data centers will use 945 terawatt-hours of electricity by 2030, accounting for nearly 3% of the world’s total power consumption. Training a large AI model like GPT-5 alone requires about 100 gigawatt-hours, equal to one year’s electricity for 770,000 people in sub-Saharan Africa. This huge power demand keeps rising as AI use expands. 37.______________ Researchers from UC Riverside found that generating 100 words with AI uses around 500 milliliters of water. A long conversation can consume five times that amount. UN University projects that AI-related water use will reach 9.3 trillion liters by 2030, enough for 1.3 billion people in Africa for a whole year. 38.______________ AI servers produce massive heat during high-intensity operation. Water is the most efficient way to cool down these devices and prevent overheating. Most cooling water evaporates into the air and cannot be reused. Besides, power plants supplying electricity to data centers also need plenty of water for cooling. This hidden resource cost directly affects ordinary people. As AI applications boom, local water and electricity bills keep rising, especially near data centers. In water-scarce regions, AI’s huge demand may worsen water shortages. We enjoy AI’s convenience every day, but we also have to bear its heavy burden on natural resources. 39.______________ The AI industry must balance innovation and sustainability. Researchers are developing more energy-efficient models and advanced cooling technologies to cut resource waste. As users, we can also help by using AI rationally and avoiding unnecessary queries. 40.______________ Only in this way can we build a truly eco-friendly tech future. 选项 A-G A. AI also brings shocking water waste besides massive power consumption. B. This hidden resource cost will not bring any trouble to ordinary citizens. C. There is a clear explanation for AI’s astonishing water consumption. D. This article will show how AI wastes precious energy and water resources. E. The pressure on natural resources brought by AI cannot be ignored. F. AI technology will completely stop resource consumption in the near future. G. Both tech companies and individual users have a role to cut AI’s resource waste. 教师版答案 + 完整解析 Passage 1 答案：36.C 37.B 38.A 39.D 40.E 1.C 承上启下。前文引出快递包装存在室内隐患，后文分段列举各类风险，本句衔接现象与下文危害。干扰：A、E 段落位置不匹配。 2.B 转折逻辑。前文说自然 TVOC 无害，本句用 however 转折说明纸箱释放的有机物有毒，词汇 TVOCs 复现。干扰：G 话题为塑料填充物，本段只讲纸箱。 3.A 段首主旨。Another 承接上一段化学危害，引出本段病毒、细菌、虫卵等生物风险。干扰：D 是火灾相关，本段无关。 4.D 细节支撑。前文说明包装易燃，本句解释堆积室内 / 楼道的危险，引出浓烟堵塞通道的后果。干扰：F 反向观点，与文意冲突。 5.E 因果总结。总结前文全部隐患，引出后文安全处理建议。干扰：F 完全违背文章核心观点。 干扰项说明 F：认为少量纸箱无需担忧，反向干扰；G：塑料填充物细节，无匹配段落，无关干扰。 Passage 2 答案：36.E 37.A 38.B 39.D 40.G 1.E 段尾过渡。总起全文：过度线上分享会带来诸多隐患，引出下文分层论证。干扰：C 反向、F 偏离主题。 2.A 段首主旨。Another hidden risk 衔接上段情绪压力，点明本段核心：网络永久留存发布内容。干扰：D 为第四段主旨句，段落错位。 3.B 细节补充。前文说人们后悔公开私事，本句给出正向解决方案：和挚友倾诉而非网友。干扰：C 与文章主旨对立。 4.D 段首主旨。another mental risk 递进，引出本段线上攀比引发焦虑的心理危害。干扰：A 匹配第三段，位置错误。 5.G 全文收尾升华，点明保护隐私是守护精神能量，呼应标题。干扰：F 无中生有，文中未提及靠分享谋生。 干扰项说明 C：主张全盘分享日常，反向逻辑陷阱；F：线上博主谋生，全文无相关信息，无关干扰。 Passage 3 答案：36.A 37.D 38.E 39.B 40.G 1.A 段尾过渡。承接研究结论：争辩加剧焦虑，说明反复在意他人评价等于交出情绪主导权，引出下文分析刻薄言语根源。干扰：C 反向、F 无关。 2.D 段首主旨。总领本段，点明伤人话语根源是说话者自身问题，而非你的缺陷。干扰：A 是第一段结尾句，位置错位。 3.E 细节支撑。前文提出认知重评策略，本句说明温和回应远优于无休止争吵。干扰：C 主张激烈争辩，与文意冲突。 4.B 段落总结。本段论述心态转变改善人际关系，本句收尾说明他人会更信任、亲近你。干扰：F 无中生有。 5.G 主旨升华，呼吁摆脱他人负面评价，专注自身快乐，收束全文。干扰：C 反向观点。 干扰项说明 C：主张强硬争辩，和全文 “看淡负面言论、避免争执” 核心对立；F：主动浏览恶评反思，文中无对应内容。 Passage 4 答案：36.D 37.A 38.C 39.E 40.G 1.D 段尾过渡。前文提出 AI 存在隐性环境成本，本句总起全文，预告后文将介绍水电资源损耗。干扰：B 反向、F 绝对化无依据。 2.A 段首主旨。also 并列逻辑，承接上段高耗电，开启本段 AI 耗水数据论述。干扰：C 用于解释耗水原因，不适合段首。 3.C 段首主旨。总领本段，解释 AI 耗水量巨大的底层原因 —— 服务器水冷散热。干扰：A 是上一段过渡句。 4.E 段落总结。本段说明资源损耗影响普通人、加剧缺水，本句总结自然资源压力不容忽视，铺垫文末对策。干扰：B 与文意完全相反。 5.G 衔接句。整合前文企业节能研发、用户理性使用两类措施，引出结尾环保科技愿景。干扰：F 绝对化表述，文中无依据。 干扰项说明 B：声称资源成本不影响普通人，反向陷阱；F：AI 未来彻底零资源消耗，过度绝对、无原文支撑。 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
