WALK FOR GREEN
How often do you walk around the campus instead of getting straight onto the shuttle bus? The beauties of our campus deserve to be better explored and can best be explored on foot. Walking is also a greener and healthier alternative to using vehicles. To encourage more students and staff members to walk around the campus, our school has launched a new “Walk for Green” initiative.
Programme
Setting out from the MTR Station, “Walk for Green” recommends various walking routes on campus, one of which covers the YIA Building, LSK Building and LWS Building. Card readers for different walking routes have been installed (安装) to record the number of points completed by “Walk for Green” participants. Participants who collect 60 points within 30 days will be awarded the title “Green Walker”.
Participation
To participate, students and staff members would choose a marked route, and tap their school cards at the card readers installed at both the start and end points(and also at an intermediate card reader). Name, student/staff ID, department/unit, date, time and card readers tapped will be recorded.
Walking Journey Points
Important Notes:
● Walkers must complete one trip (either upwards or downwards) within one hour to score points.
● A total of up to six points can be earned each day.
Every time you take a walk on campus, you are helping to preserve our environment and also keeping yourself healthy. Let’s start from today!
1. Where does “Walk for Green” start?
A. YIA Building. B. LSK Building.
C. MTR Station. D. LWS Building.
2. What are participants required to do to score?
A. Collect at least 6 points. B. Choose a pre-set route.
C. Maintain a fixed speed. D. Complete a round trip.
3. How many points do you get daily by walking from YIA Building to LWS Building?
A. 1. B. 2. C. 3. D. 6.

In the early 1920s, Ernest Hemingway was a little-known journalist. Then, in 1925, he published In Our Time, a book of short stories, and later The Sun Also Rises, the most celebrated book about the “Lost Generation” in post-war Europe. Hemingway became famous in the same way one of his characters described going bankrupt (破产) — “gradually and then suddenly”. Eight other novels and novellas followed, as did Pulitzer and Nobel prizes.
Nobody had written like him before. A short clean sentence is a fine thing. But if the writer has his story straight and his words true, he can go long and hard — no need for big words and adverbs and commas (逗号). He also knew what to leave out, as he explained, “If a writer of prose knows enough of what he is writing about, he may omit things that he knows and the reader, if the writer is writing truly enough, will have a feeling of those things as strongly as if the writer had stated them.”
Beyond his distinct style, his heroes attracted famous admirers. He defined courage as “grace under pressure” — martially, for the soldier in A Farewell to Arms; physically, for the fisherman in The Old Man and the Sea; or sportingly, for the transformed hunter in The Short Happy Life of Francis Macomber. In 1955 John F. Kennedy asked for Hemingway’s permission to use this definition in Profiles in Courage, which won the Pulitzer prize for biography.
Perhaps most importantly, Hemingway’s life became a legend. He endured broken marriages, was wounded in the first world war, reported in the second, ran with the bulls in Spain and survived a plane crash in Africa. Yet, beneath toughness, he suffered from depression. That has provided more than enough material for biographies and documentaries, including a six-hour series by Ken Burns in 2021.
While adaptations of his works are rare, and some themes may appear outdated to a contemporary audience, Hemingway’s revolutionary works, powerful characters, and stormy life ensure his permanent place as a towering figure in literature.
4. What is mainly introduced about Hemingway in paragraph 1?
A. His career shift. B. His rise to fame.
C. His war service. D. His plan for writing.
5. What sets Hemingway apart from other writers in writing style?
A. Imaginative and vivid wording. B. Simple yet detailed descriptions.
C. Clean and genuine expressions. D. Complicated yet logical sentences.
6. Why does the author mention John F. Kennedy in paragraph 3?
A. To honour Kennedy’s courage. B. To compare two famous figures.
C. To highlight Pulitzer’s significance. D. To show Hemingway’s great influence.
7. What does the author imply about Hemingway’s works?
A. They age into silence. B. They are hard to adapt.
C. They mirror his easy life. D. They stand the test of time.
C
Through evolution, animals have developed numerous ways to protect themselves from predators (捕食者). Turtles hide in their shells, and skunks (臭鼬) use smelly liquid. But these defenses don’t work against cars. Environmental journalist Ben Goldfarb explains, “When facing a car, these defenses are useless — or even harmful. Staying still is the worst choice. Roadkill is a serious threat to wildlife.”
Roads also act as barriers, preventing animals from moving freely. The constant traffic on highways creates what scientists call a “moving fence”— a wall of vehicles that animals avoid crossing. While we often see dead animals like deer or squirrels on roads, we don’t see the ones that never try to cross. This isolation can harm animal populations more than roadkill itself.
Chemicals from roads also damage the environment. Every year, the U. S. uses 20 million tons of road salt to melt ice, which pollutes nearby soil and plants. Cars release metals like zinc and copper, and tires leave behind microplastics. These pollutants make roadsides dangerous for creatures like monarch butterflies, even though these areas could otherwise be good habitats.
Roadsides sometimes attract animals with food like flowers or berries, but this becomes an “ecological trap”. Animals are drawn to these resources, only to face the danger of traffic.
Interestingly, when traffic decreases, animals quickly adapt. Researchers in the Bay Area found that when cars disappeared for months, white-crowned sparrows — small songbirds — started singing more complex and varied songs. Without traffic noise, they no longer needed to “shout” and could return to their natural behaviors. This shows how much roads affect wildlife — but also how adaptable animals can be.
Despite these challenges, Goldfarb says, certain species have made remarkable adaptations. He notes that Chicago’s urban foxes are said to look both ways before crossing the street. “We think about roads as these forces that are universally or exclusively harmful to animals, and certainly they’re incredibly destructive,” he says. “But wildlife is also impressively adaptive and clever and animals are finding ways to make a living in our midst.”
8. How does the author start the text in the first paragraph?
A. By stating a reason. B. By providing statistics.
C. By defining a concept. D. By giving examples.
9. What harmful impact do roads have on wildlife?
A. Less food supply. B. Restricted movement.
C. Increased predators. D. Species extinction.
10. What can we infer from Goldfarb’s words in the last paragraph?
A. Roads are not truly harmful to wildlife.
B. Urban foxes seldom get hit by vehicles.
C. Animals adapt cleverly to dangerous roads.
D. Wildlife protection deserves highest attention.
11. What is the author’s purpose in writing this passage?
A. To advocate reducing traffic.
B. To preserve wildlife diversity.
C. To analyze roads’ effects on wildlife.
D. To highlight roadkill danger to animals.
D
In April 2026, some of the world’s most powerful technology companies made a striking announcement: they are now using artificial intelligence — AI — to help build and improve AI itself. Companies like OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google DeepMind have quietly set a new goal: to create AI systems that can do their own research and automate (使自动化) the process of scientific discovery.
Anthropic, the company behind the popular AI assistant Claude, recently revealed that its AI now writes up to 90 percent of the company’s own code — the instructions that tell computers what to do. Meanwhile, OpenAI, one of the world’s leading AI labs, has announced plans to launch an “AI research intern (实习生)” within six months. This intern would be able to independently handle a small number of specific research problems — without any help from a human.
The idea of AI improving itself is not new, but the speed at which it is now happening has surprised many experts. Jakub Pachocki, OpenAI’s chief scientist, told MIT Technology Review that he believes we are approaching a point where AI models could work “indefinitely” — meaning continuously — on complex tasks, much like a human researcher. “We will have an era where there are entire research labs inside data centers,” he said.
However, this exciting vision also raises serious concerns. Experts warn that self-improving AI systems could become difficult to control. If an AI makes errors in one step of a long chain of tasks, those mistakes could build up — a problem known as “error accumulation”. A more alarming worry is that such systems could be used to design dangerous tools, including biological weapons or cyberattacks (网络攻击).
Despite the risks, many in the tech industry remain optimistic. They argue that self-improving AI could speed up progress in science and medicine, helping researchers find cures for diseases faster than ever before. The question is not whether this technology will arrive — but whether humanity will be prepared when it does.
12. What is the purpose of the first paragraph?
A. To warn of AI risks. B. To lead in the topic. C. To list AI companies. D. To tell how AI works.
13. What can we learn about the “AI research intern”?
A. It acts better than humans. B. It has worked for six months.
C. It can solve certain problems alone. D. It writes 90% of the company’s code.
14. What is people’s attitude to self-improving AI systems?
A. Objective. B. Indifferent.
C. Completely optimistic. D. Completely pessimistic.
15. Which is a suitable title of the text?
A. Risks of AI Self-Improving. B. Ways of AI Self-Improving.
C. AI: A State-of-the-art Assistant. D. Two Sides of AI Self-Improving.

When we were finally dismissed (解散) from the last class of the day, the students streamed out of the classrooms. It was another boring day after school. I dragged my feet home as I sighed. Yet another uneventful day, I thought. Little did I know that the day would take a turn for the worse.
The lift lobby (电梯间) of my flat was old and dirty. The walls, which were painted white, had been dirtied over many years. I reached my flat’s lobby, and pressed the lift button and went in. Just then, Mrs Lim, my elderly neighbour, hobbled (蹒跚) in. She looked ancient with tissue paper white hair, wearing a faded old-fashioned dress. I held the lift door open, flashing a friendly smile, and politely greeted her. I asked her how she felt that day and pressed the buttons. She thanked me for being so polite, then we were silent for the rest of the ride.
The lift fell down increasingly fast. There were loud clanking sounds here and there while the lift grew slower and slower. My heart beat hard and fast as my hands turned cold and wet with sweat. Unfortunately, the lift came to an abrupt stop at the fifth floor. I pressed the buttons hard several times, but it was of no help. The lights on the buttons had gone out. It soon dawned on me that we were trapped. An icy fear crept up my spine. Mrs Lim was hysterical (歇斯底里).
“We will never get out!” she cried with her face pale. It had become a colourless mask. I had no time to lose. I pressed the bell in the lift immediately. The sound was surely deafening, but what other choice did I have?
注意:

Several minutes passed, but no help came.

In the early 1920s, Ernest Hemingway was a little-known journalist. Then, in 1925, he published In Our Time, a book of short stories, and later The Sun Also Rises, the most celebrated book about the “Lost Generation” in post-war Europe. Hemingway became famous in the same way one of his characters described going bankrupt (破产) — “gradually and then suddenly”. Eight other novels and novellas followed, as did Pulitzer and Nobel prizes.
Nobody had written like him before. A short clean sentence is a fine thing. But if the writer has his story straight and his words true, he can go long and hard — no need for big words and adverbs and commas (逗号). He also knew what to leave out, as he explained, “If a writer of prose knows enough of what he is writing about, he may omit things that he knows and the reader, if the writer is writing truly enough, will have a feeling of those things as strongly as if the writer had stated them.”
Beyond his distinct style, his heroes attracted famous admirers. He defined courage as “grace under pressure” — martially, for the soldier in A Farewell to Arms; physically, for the fisherman in The Old Man and the Sea; or sportingly, for the transformed hunter in The Short Happy Life of Francis Macomber. In 1955 John F. Kennedy asked for Hemingway’s permission to use this definition in Profiles in Courage, which won the Pulitzer prize for biography.
Perhaps most importantly, Hemingway’s life became a legend. He endured broken marriages, was wounded in the first world war, reported in the second, ran with the bulls in Spain and survived a plane crash in Africa. Yet, beneath toughness, he suffered from depression. That has provided more than enough material for biographies and documentaries, including a six-hour series by Ken Burns in 2021.
While adaptations of his works are rare, and some themes may appear outdated to a contemporary audience, Hemingway’s revolutionary works, powerful characters, and stormy life ensure his permanent place as a towering figure in literature.
4. What is mainly introduced about Hemingway in paragraph 1?
A. His career shift. B. His rise to fame.

Then, in 1925, he published In Our Time, a book of short stories, and later The Sun Also Rises, the most celebrated book about the ‘Lost Generation’ in post-war Europe. Hemingway became famous in the same way one of his characters described going bankrupt (破产) — ‘gradually and then suddenly’. Eight other novels and novellas followed, as did Pulitzer and Nobel prizes. (20世纪20年代初,欧内斯特·海明威是一位鲜为人知的记者。然后,在1925年,他出版了《在我们的时代》,一本短篇小说集,后来又出版了《太阳照常升起》,这是关于战后欧洲‘迷惘的一代’最著名的书。海明威成名的方式就像他笔下的一个人物描述破产一样——‘逐渐地,然后突然地’。随后又有八部小说和中篇小说问世,普利策奖和诺贝尔奖也随之而来。)”可知,第一段主要介绍海明威的成名过程。
【5题详解】

Through evolution, animals have developed numerous ways to protect themselves from predators (捕食者). Turtles hide in their shells, and skunks (臭鼬) use smelly liquid. But these defenses don’t work against cars. Environmental journalist Ben Goldfarb explains, “When facing a car, these defenses are useless — or even harmful. Staying still is the worst choice. Roadkill is a serious threat to wildlife.”
Roads also act as barriers, preventing animals from moving freely. The constant traffic on highways creates what scientists call a “moving fence”— a wall of vehicles that animals avoid crossing. While we often see dead animals like deer or squirrels on roads, we don’t see the ones that never try to cross. This isolation can harm animal populations more than roadkill itself.
Chemicals from roads also damage the environment. Every year, the U. S. uses 20 million tons of road salt to melt ice, which pollutes nearby soil and plants. Cars release metals like zinc and copper, and tires leave behind microplastics. These pollutants make roadsides dangerous for creatures like monarch butterflies, even though these areas could otherwise be good habitats.
Roadsides sometimes attract animals with food like flowers or berries, but this becomes an “ecological trap”. Animals are drawn to these resources, only to face the danger of traffic.
Interestingly, when traffic decreases, animals quickly adapt. Researchers in the Bay Area found that when cars disappeared for months, white-crowned sparrows — small songbirds — started singing more complex and varied songs. Without traffic noise, they no longer needed to “shout” and could return to their natural behaviors. This shows how much roads affect wildlife — but also how adaptable animals can be.
Despite these challenges, Goldfarb says, certain species have made remarkable adaptations. He notes that Chicago’s urban foxes are said to look both ways before crossing the street. “We think about roads as these forces that are universally or exclusively harmful to animals, and certainly they’re incredibly destructive,” he says. “But wildlife is also impressively adaptive and clever and animals are finding ways to make a living in our midst.”
8. How does the author start the text in the first paragraph?
A. By stating a reason. B. By providing statistics.
C. By defining a concept. D. By giving examples.
9. What harmful impact do roads have on wildlife?
A. Less food supply. B. Restricted movement.
C. Increased predators. D. Species extinction.
10. What can we infer from Goldfarb’s words in the last paragraph?
A. Roads are not truly harmful to wildlife.
B. Urban foxes seldom get hit by vehicles.
C. Animals adapt cleverly to dangerous roads.
D. Wildlife protection deserves highest attention.
11. What is the author’s purpose in writing this passage?
A. To advocate reducing traffic.
B. To preserve wildlife diversity.
C. To analyze roads’ effects on wildlife.
D. To highlight roadkill danger to animals.
【答案】8. D 9. B 10. C 11. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了道路对野生动物产生的多方面影响,包括道路致死、阻碍迁徙、造成污染以及形成生态陷阱等,同时也提到了动物在交通减少时的适应能力和某些物种的适应性变化。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Through evolution, animals have developed numerous ways to protect themselves from predators (捕食者). Turtles hide in their shells, and skunks (臭鼬) use smelly liquid. (通过进化,动物发展出了许多保护自己免受捕食者伤害的方法。乌龟躲在壳里,臭鼬使用有臭味的液体。)”可知,作者在第一段通过列举乌龟和臭鼬保护自己的例子开启全文。故选D项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Roads also act as barriers, preventing animals from moving freely. The constant traffic on highways creates what scientists call a “moving fence” — a wall of vehicles that animals avoid crossing. (道路还起到了屏障的作用,阻碍动物自由活动。高速公路上川流不息的车辆形成了科学家们所说的“移动围栏”——一道由车辆组成的墙,动物们会避开穿越这道墙。)”可知,道路对野生动物的有害影响之一是限制了它们的活动。故选B项。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“He notes that Chicago’s urban foxes are said to look both ways before crossing the street. “We think about roads as these forces that are universally or exclusively harmful to animals, and certainly they’re incredibly destructive,” he says. “But wildlife is also impressively adaptive and clever and animals are finding ways to make a living in our midst.” (他指出,芝加哥的都市狐狸过马路时据说会左右张望。“我们总把道路看作对动物普遍或唯一有害的力量,它们确实极具破坏性,”他说,“但野生动物也展现出惊人的适应能力和智慧,许多动物正在我们身边找到生存之道。”)”可知,从Goldfarb的话中可以推断出动物能聪明地适应危险的道路环境。故选C项。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“But these defenses don’t work against cars. Environmental journalist Ben Goldfarb explains, “When facing a car, these defenses are useless — or even harmful. Staying still is the worst choice. Roadkill is a serious threat to wildlife.” (但这些防御手段在汽车面前毫无用处,甚至还会带来危害。环境记者Ben Goldfarb解释道:“面对汽车时,这些防御方法不仅没用,甚至可能有害。一动不动是最糟糕的选择。道路致死是野生动物面临的一个严重威胁。”)”并结合全文内容可知,文章围绕道路对野生动物的影响展开,依次阐述了公路导致的路杀现象以及公路阻碍动物迁徙、带来化学污染、形成“生态陷阱”等负面影响,同时也提到了部分物种的适应性调整。整体是在分析公路对野生动物多方面的影响。故选C项。

In April 2026, some of the world’s most powerful technology companies made a striking announcement: they are now using artificial intelligence — AI — to help build and improve AI itself. Companies like OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google DeepMind have quietly set a new goal: to create AI systems that can do their own research and automate (使自动化) the process of scientific discovery.
Anthropic, the company behind the popular AI assistant Claude, recently revealed that its AI now writes up to 90 percent of the company’s own code — the instructions that tell computers what to do. Meanwhile, OpenAI, one of the world’s leading AI labs, has announced plans to launch an “AI research intern (实习生)” within six months. This intern would be able to independently handle a small number of specific research problems — without any help from a human.
The idea of AI improving itself is not new, but the speed at which it is now happening has surprised many experts. Jakub Pachocki, OpenAI’s chief scientist, told MIT Technology Review that he believes we are approaching a point where AI models could work “indefinitely” — meaning continuously — on complex tasks, much like a human researcher. “We will have an era where there are entire research labs inside data centers,” he said.
However, this exciting vision also raises serious concerns. Experts warn that self-improving AI systems could become difficult to control. If an AI makes errors in one step of a long chain of tasks, those mistakes could build up — a problem known as “error accumulation”. A more alarming worry is that such systems could be used to design dangerous tools, including biological weapons or cyberattacks (网络攻击).
Despite the risks, many in the tech industry remain optimistic. They argue that self-improving AI could speed up progress in science and medicine, helping researchers find cures for diseases faster than ever before. The question is not whether this technology will arrive — but whether humanity will be prepared when it does.
12. What is the purpose of the first paragraph?
A. To warn of AI risks. B. To lead in the topic. C. To list AI companies. D. To tell how AI works.
13. What can we learn about the “AI research intern”?
A. It acts better than humans. B. It has worked for six months.
C. It can solve certain problems alone. D. It writes 90% of the company’s code.
14. What is people’s attitude to self-improving AI systems?
A. Objective. B. Indifferent.
C. Completely optimistic. D. Completely pessimistic.
15. Which is a suitable title of the text?
A. Risks of AI Self-Improving. B. Ways of AI Self-Improving.
C. AI: A State-of-the-art Assistant. D. Two Sides of AI Self-Improving.
【答案】12. B 13. C 14. A 15. D
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了科技巨头利用AI研发更先进AI的新趋势,阐述了其加速科研的潜力,同时也指出了失控风险与“错误累积”等隐忧,呈现了这一技术的两面性。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“In April 2026, some of the world’s most powerful technology companies made a striking announcement: they are now using artificial intelligence — AI — to help build and improve AI itself. (2026年4月,一些全球最强大的科技公司发布了一则引人注目的公告:它们现在正在使用人工智能——AI——来帮助构建和改进AI本身。)”可知,首段通过描述这一震撼的行业动态,引出了“AI自我进化”的核心话题。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Meanwhile, OpenAI, one of the world’s leading AI labs, has announced plans to launch an “AI research intern (实习生)” within six months. This intern would be able to independently handle a small number of specific research problems — without any help from a human. (与此同时,世界领先的人工智能实验室之一OpenAI宣布计划在六个月内推出“人工智能研究实习生”。这位实习生将能够独立处理少数特定的研究问题,而无需人类的任何帮助。)”可知,该实习生能独立解决某些特定问题。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“Experts warn that self-improving AI systems could become difficult to control. (专家警告称,自我改进的AI系统可能会变得难以控制。)”以及第五段“Despite the risks, many in the tech industry remain optimistic. They argue that self-improving AI could speed up progress in science and medicine, helping researchers find cures for diseases faster than ever before. (尽管存在风险,但科技行业的许多人仍然持乐观态度。他们认为,自我改进的人工智能可以加快科学和医学的进步,帮助研究人员比以往更快地找到疾病的治疗方法)”可知,人们对此既担忧又抱有期待,态度是客观的。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第四段“However, this exciting vision also raises serious concerns.(然而,这一令人兴奋的愿景也引发了严重担忧。)”以及最后一段“Despite the risks, many in the tech industry remain optimistic. (尽管存在风险,但科技行业的许多人仍然持乐观态度)”可知,全文既讲了AI自我改进的好处,也讲了其风险,呈现两面性,所以“AI自我提升的两面”精准贴合主旨,适合作为文章标题。
第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Start a Healthy Habit
Many people want to live a healthier life. They decide to exercise more or eat better food. They feel excited at first. But after a few weeks, they often stop and return to their old ways. ____16____. The good news is that there are some simple ways to make habits stick.
First, make your new habit easy to see. The more visible it is, the more likely you are to do it. For example, if you want to drink more water, place a full water bottle right on your desk where you work or study. ____17____. This small change can help you drink more without much effort.
Second, try a method called “habit stacking.” This simply means that you add a new habit to something you already do every day. ____18____. For instance, you could do a gentle stretch right after you finish brushing your teeth. Because brushing is a fixed part of your day, the new habit becomes much easier to remember.
Third, pay attention to how you think about yourself. Instead of telling yourself “I will try to go running,” start saying “I am a runner.” ____19____. When you start to see yourself as a healthy and active person, your actions will naturally follow that belief.
Finally, do not be too hard on yourself if you slip up or miss a day. Nobody is perfect, and everyone has moments when they fall back. ____20____. The key is to just begin again the very next day. Remember, even tiny steps taken over time can lead to big and lasting changes.
A. When you see the bottle, you will be reminded to drink.
B. You do not need to be perfect.
C. This small shift in the way you think can make a real difference.
D. But building a new habit does not have to be such a struggle.
E. You simply attach the new behavior to a daily routine you already follow.
F. Trying to change too many habits at once often leads to giving up.
G. What really matters is getting back on the right track quickly.
【答案】16. D 17. A 18. E 19. C 20. G
【解析】
【导语】文章介绍了如何轻松养成健康习惯。
【16题详解】
根据上文“They feel excited at first. But after a few weeks, they often stop and return to their old ways.(起初他们满怀热忱,可几周过后,往往半途而废,重回旧日状态。)”和下文“The good news is that there are some simple ways to make habits stick.(好在有简单方法能帮人稳固养成好习惯。)”可知,上文提到人们起初热血,几周后就放弃变回旧习惯;下文引出有简单办法坚持习惯。D项“但养成新习惯不必如此艰难”和上文形成转折关系,承接半途而废的现状,顺势引出下文解决办法,衔接自然。
【17题详解】
上文“For example, if you want to drink more water, place a full water bottle right on your desk where you work or study.( 比如,若想多喝水,就把装满水的瓶子放在办公或学习的桌面上。)”举例把装满水的瓶子放在书桌显眼处。A项“当你看到瓶子时,就会被提醒去喝水”顺着摆放水瓶的做法,说明此举带来的实际效果。
【18题详解】
上文“Second, try a method called “habit stacking.” This simply means that you add a new habit to something you already do every day.(其次,可以试试“习惯叠加”法。简单来说,就是将新习惯融入日常已有的行为当中。)”解释“习惯叠加”,把新习惯融入日常已做的事里。E项“你只需把新行为附加到你已经遵循的日常惯例上”进一步诠释习惯叠加的含义,呼应前文概念。
【19题详解】
上文“Third, pay attention to how you think about yourself. Instead of telling yourself “I will try to go running,” start saying “I am a runner.”(第三,留意自我认知。别告诉自己 “我试着去跑步”,而是认定 “我就是一名跑步者”。)”指出改变自我心理暗示的话术,换一种自我定位。C项“这种思维方式的微小转变能产生真正的影响”承接思维表达方式的变化,点明心态调整带来的作用,契合本段自我认知的观点。
【20题详解】
上文“Finally, do not be too hard on yourself if you slip up or miss a day. Nobody is perfect, and everyone has moments when they fall back.(最后,如果疏忽懈怠、中断一日,也不必过分苛责自己。人无完人,每个人都会有退步的时候。)”提到犯错、中断一天不必苛责自己,人无完人。G项“真正重要的是迅速回到正轨”承接偶尔松懈的情况,说明正确应对方式。

【答案】Dear Jayne,
How are you? I’m excited to tell you about our school’s “Weekend Micro-Trip” activity! Last Saturday, we were encouraged to explore local places like museums, old streets, and parks for just 2-3 hours. I visited a charming bookstore hidden in an alley and a small history museum nearby.
It was such a refreshing experience. Not only did I discover new places, but I also learned so much about our city’s culture. Our affection for the city deepened through the communications with classmates afterwards.
Do you have similar activities? I am sure your town is full of hidden treasures to uncover.
Best wishes,
Li Hua

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
When we were finally dismissed (解散) from the last class of the day, the students streamed out of the classrooms. It was another boring day after school. I dragged my feet home as I sighed. Yet another uneventful day, I thought. Little did I know that the day would take a turn for the worse.
The lift lobby (电梯间) of my flat was old and dirty. The walls, which were painted white, had been dirtied over many years. I reached my flat’s lobby, and pressed the lift button and went in. Just then, Mrs Lim, my elderly neighbour, hobbled (蹒跚) in. She looked ancient with tissue paper white hair, wearing a faded old-fashioned dress. I held the lift door open, flashing a friendly smile, and politely greeted her. I asked her how she felt that day and pressed the buttons. She thanked me for being so polite, then we were silent for the rest of the ride.
The lift fell down increasingly fast. There were loud clanking sounds here and there while the lift grew slower and slower. My heart beat hard and fast as my hands turned cold and wet with sweat. Unfortunately, the lift came to an abrupt stop at the fifth floor. I pressed the buttons hard several times, but it was of no help. The lights on the buttons had gone out. It soon dawned on me that we were trapped. An icy fear crept up my spine. Mrs Lim was hysterical (歇斯底里).
“We will never get out!” she cried with her face pale. It had become a colourless mask. I had no time to lose. I pressed the bell in the lift immediately. The sound was surely deafening, but what other choice did I have?

Bang! My hopes were lifted when I heard the firefighters on the other side of the lift door.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】
Several minutes passed, but no help came. Trembling slightly, I wrapped my arms around the panicking Mrs Lim, her wrinkled face flooded with terror. “Don’t worry, we’ll be rescued soon,” I comforted her softly, patting her shaking back. The narrow lift, wrapped in dim grey shadows, felt suffocating. I fetched a crumpled tissue and wiped sweat off her forehead. Having tried every rescue button repeatedly, I leant against the cold metal wall, wondering how long we would stay trapped. Despair gradually clouded my mind as silence surrounded us tightly.
Bang! My hopes were lifted when I heard the firefighters shouting on the other side of the lift door. Loud metal cracking echoed sharply as they pried open the rusty door. One firefighter stretched out his strong arm, guiding us out carefully. Stepping into bright daylight, we both breathed a deep sigh of relief. Warm fresh air rushing over our tired faces, all fear faded away instantly. This terrifying experience taught me that calmness and kindness are the most precious strength in emergencies.
