I used to believe I had a good handle on love and cooking. I grew up in Brooklyn, New York and comfort food was central to my life. However, when I fell in love with my now-husband, Alex, I realized I needed to learn much more. Alex follows a specific diet due to his religious beliefs, and I wanted to accept his way of life. Yet, after we moved in together, I often stood in our kitchen feeling lost, unsure of what I could prepare for us.
Adapting to his dietary rules meant learning a completely new routine: separate dishes for meat and dairy, no butter with chicken, none of the easy shortcuts I’d grown up with. Even simple foods came with surprises. I missed the comfort foods I knew how to make. I wanted something warm and familiar that felt like us.
Then, I found a recipe in a magazine for a light chicken pot pie. It looked simple and warm, exactly what I was craving. What made it special was that it accidentally fit Alex’s diet. Instead of using butter, the recipe relied on warm chicken soup to create a rich, creamy texture (口感). For me, it felt like a small miracle.
I tried making it, carefully mixing the broth (高汤) and flour, hoping it would turn out perfectly. When I tasted the pie, I felt a sense of confidence I had never experienced before. It was delicious! It was comforting and creamy, filled with flavors I loved, yet it respected Alex’s traditions. That night, the pot pie became more than just dinner; it became “our” dish.
Over the years, that recipe has moved with us. It has been cooked in small apartments and large houses, appearing on both difficult days and joyful ones. I still keep the original piece of paper. This story is no longer just about a chicken pot pie. It is about learning to meet in the middle, adjusting traditions, and building a life together. Some love stories begin with grand gestures, but ours started with a simple recipe that continues to sustain us.
4. Why did the author feel lost after moving in with Alex?
A. She had no cooking experience. B. She disliked preparing comfort food.
C. She was unfamiliar with his dietary rules. D. She preferred eating out to cooking.
5. What does the underlined word “craving” in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Wanting. B. Creating. C. Avoiding. D. Preparing.
6. Why does the author call the pot pie “our” dish?
A. It was taught by her husband Alex. B. It was the only food they both liked.
C. It reminded them of their former home. D. It became a symbol of their shared life.
7. What does the author most likely believe about their love story?
A. Grand gestures are the most common way to show love.
B. Small acts of adaptation matter more than grand gestures.
C. Food can help bridge religious differences in relationships.
D. Their love story matters less without big romantic moments.
【答案】4. C 5. A 6. D 7. B
【解析】
【导语】作者通过讲述自己为适应丈夫饮食习惯,意外发现一款符合要求的鸡肉食谱,并将其融入婚后生活的故事,展现了爱情中相互妥协、共同成长并用心经营生活的真谛。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“However, when I fell in love with my now-husband, Alex, I realized I needed to learn much more. Alex follows a specific diet due to his religious beliefs, and I wanted to accept his way of life. Yet, after we moved in together, I often stood in our kitchen feeling lost, unsure of what I could prepare for us.(然而,当我爱上现在的丈夫亚历克斯时,我意识到自己还需要学很多。亚历克斯因宗教信仰而遵循特定的饮食方式,而我希望接纳他的生活方式。但自从我们同居后,我常常站在厨房里感到迷茫,不确定该为两人准备些什么)”可知,作者在搬进亚历克斯家后感到迷茫是因为她不熟悉他的饮食规定。
【5题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词下文“What made it special was that it accidentally fit Alex’s diet. Instead of using butter, the recipe relied on warm chicken soup to create a rich, creamy texture (口感). For me, it felt like a small miracle.(特别之处在于,它恰好符合了亚历克斯的饮食习惯。这个食谱没有使用黄油,而是用温热的鸡汤来营造出浓郁顺滑的口感。对我来说,这简直就像一个小小的奇迹)”可知,作者一直在寻找一种温暖、熟悉的食物,来满足自己的情感需求,故划线词craving意思是“强烈想要、渴望”。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“This story is no longer just about a chicken pot pie. It is about learning to meet in the middle, adjusting traditions, and building a life together.(这个故事不再只是关于一个鸡肉派。它关乎学会在彼此之间找到平衡,调整传统,并共同建立生活)”可知,作者称这种鸡肉派是“我们的”菜是因为它成为了他们共同生活的象征。
【7题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“Some love stories begin with grand gestures, but ours started with a simple recipe that continues to sustain us.(有些爱情故事始于宏大的举动,而我们的故事却始于一个简单的食谱,它一直持续地滋养着我们)”可知,作者认为小小的适应行为比宏大的举动更重要。

Research indicates that eyes, as an outward part of the central nervous system, may reveal early signs of cognitive (认知的) decline. Two large studies, one in the UK and one in Australia, suggest that poor performance on simple vision tests is associated with a higher risk of developing dementia (老年痴呆) over the following decade.
The 2024 UK study found that participants with slower visual processing speeds were more likely to develop dementia in the following 12 years. The Australian study discovered that declining eyesight significantly predicted cognitive decline over a similar period. Nikki-Anne Wilson, lead author of the Australian study, said that vision loss can come from treatable factors like cataracts (白内障) or incorrect glasses. Identifying and addressing these changes early may help reduce dementia risk.
Based on new evidence, The Lancet’s 2024 Commission on dementia identified late-life vision loss as a new risk factor, contributing to up to 2.2% of dementia cases, while untreated mid-life hearing loss accounts for about 7%. However, hearing or vision loss doesn’t mean an individual is certain to develop dementia, as these issues can signal various health problems.
At a population level, wearing hearing aids may reduce dementia risk, and the same might apply to treating vision issues. Assessing sensory problems in older adults is thus crucial. The Australian study analyzed 2,281 participants and found that declining vision predicted poorer problem-solving, memory, and attention scores, partly due to reduced social contact. Wilson explained that people with poor vision may avoid social events, impacting their cognitive performance.
The UK study involved over 8,000 participants taking a vision test. Those with slower visual processing speeds were more likely to develop dementia by the end, though the test couldn’t predict individual cases. The Lancet Commission authors suggest integrating such tests into dementia risk screening alongside other cognitive tests.
One in five dementia cases in seniors may come from common vision issues. Treating these problems could lower dementia risk. The Lancet calls for universal vision screening as a key preventive step.
8. Why does the author mention the two large studies in the first two paragraphs?
A. To introduce ways to cure cognitive decline.
B. To prove the link between vision and dementia.
C. To explain causes of poor social communication.
D. To compare different treatments for poor eyesight.
9. Why does declining vision lead to poorer cognitive performance according to Wilson?
A. It weakens one’s sense of time and space.
B. It causes physical damage to the brain nerves.
C. It makes people rely too much on hearing aids.
D. It reduces social interaction and mental stimulation.
10. What do The Lancet Commission authors think of vision tests in dementia risk screening?
A. Useless. B. Costly. C. Practical. D. Complicated.
11. What is the best title for the text?
A. Vision Loss: An Early Sign of Dementia Risk
B. Two Important Studies on Dementia Prevention
C. Dementia: A Complex and Incurable Disease
D. The Link Between Hearing Loss and Dementia
【答案】8. B 9. D 10. C 11. A
【解析】
【导语】本文介绍视力衰退与老年痴呆患病风险存在关联,多项研究证实视力不佳会提升痴呆发病概率,可治疗眼病引发的视力下降会损害认知;《柳叶刀》研究团队指出晚年视力损伤是痴呆诱因,倡导全民视力筛查作为预防手段。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据首段中的“Research indicates that eyes, as an outward part of the central nervous system, may reveal early signs of cognitive decline.(研究表明,眼睛作为中枢神经系统的外部部分,可能揭示认知衰退的早期迹象。)”以及第二段中的“The 2024 UK study found that participants with slower visual processing speeds were more likely to develop dementia in the following 12 years. The Australian study discovered that declining eyesight significantly predicted cognitive decline over a similar period.(2024年英国研究发现,视觉处理速度较慢的参与者在接下来12年内更容易患痴呆。澳大利亚研究发现,视力下降在类似时期内显著预测了认知衰退。)”可推知,作者提及这两项研究是为了证明视力与痴呆之间的关联。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Wilson explained that people with poor vision may avoid social events, impacting their cognitive performance.(Wilson解释说,视力不佳的人可能会回避社交活动,从而影响其认知表现。)”可知,视力下降会减少人们的社交互动,缺少相应心智刺激,最终导致认知水平下降。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段中的“The Lancet Commission authors suggest integrating such tests into dementia risk screening alongside other cognitive tests.(《柳叶刀》委员会作者建议将此类测试与其他认知测试一起纳入痴呆风险筛查。)”可知,《柳叶刀》委员会作者认为视力测试在痴呆风险筛查中具有实用价值。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。首段中的“Research indicates that eyes, as an outward part of the central nervous system, may reveal early signs of cognitive decline.(研究表明,眼睛作为中枢神经系统的外部部分,可能揭示认知衰退的早期迹象。)”与末段中的“One in five dementia cases in seniors may come from common vision issues. Treating these problems could lower dementia risk. The Lancet calls for universal vision screening as a key preventive step.(老年人中五分之一的痴呆病例可能源于常见的视力问题。治疗这些问题可以降低痴呆风险。《柳叶刀》呼吁将全民视力筛查作为一项关键预防措施。)”是文章主旨句,全文围绕视力损伤作为痴呆风险的早期信号展开论述。A项表示“视力受损:痴呆风险的早期信号”,涵盖本文中心思想,适合作本文的标题。

I’ve loved Simon and Garfunkel since I was a teen. Growing up in Bangladesh, getting their music wasn’t easy. I had to borrow a cassette (磁带), befriend a shop owner, or wait for a friend returning from abroad. Once I had a tape, I played it repeatedly — it was all I had.
Today, finding music is simple. I just ask Siri, and it plays. This applies to more than music: recipes, cooking skills, even dating. We can “meet” partners by looking through apps on our phones, no need to leave home.
This is progress, but we should be careful. Sometimes, paying a price for things matters. Effort isn’t just a cost — it helps us. First, effort makes data functional. It turns information into personal knowledge. Without effort, it’s impossible to grow skills. That’s why watching 20 YouTube videos about mathematics won’t help you learn math by itself. And it’s why Duolingo is really a video game rather than a serious effort to teach languages.
Second, effort makes things meaningful. My hard work to get that cassette made the songs special — if I’d found them on the Internet, they wouldn’t have mattered as much. A 2025 Harvard-MIT study found that students using AI to write essays learned less, were less creative, and understood the material worse than those who worked through it themselves.
But we shouldn’t praise effort for no reason. Some effort is just busywork — unnecessary tasks that don’t help. The key is to tell the difference: some difficulties are just annoying (like typing or formatting), but others are part of the activity. Writing in your own words helps you find your thoughts; solving a math problem teaches you to see patterns; cooking without a recipe builds instinct (本能). These struggles aren’t barriers — they’re how you grow, gain skills, and find meaning.
Convenience is a gift, but we mustn’t let it take away the struggles that shape us. The question isn’t “How can I make this easier?” but “What kind of difficulty is this? Does it delay me, or does it develop me?” We should keep the right struggles, not all of them.
12. What do we know about the author’s teenage music experience?
A. He had to make great efforts to get music.
B. He got music from his friends abroad for free.
C. He could listen to music anytime he wanted.
D. He bought music cassettes from local shops easily.
13. Why did the author mention Duolingo in paragraph 3?
A. To compare it with mathematics learning videos.
B. To praise its design and recommend it to readers.
C. To suggest language learning should be interesting.
D. To illustrate how effortless tools fail to build real skills.
14. What can we infer from the 2025 Harvard-MIT study?
A. Creative thinking can be developed by using AI tools.
B. AI is helpful for students to improve their writing skills.
C. Students who use AI to write essays learn more effectively.
D. Making efforts in learning is more beneficial than relying on AI.
15. What measure does the author consider necessary and valuable based on paragraph 5?
A. Formatting a document before sending an email.
B. Solving a math problem step by step.
C. Searching for a file in computer folders.
D. Typing a long report instead of speaking it aloud.
【答案】12. A 13. D 14. D 15. B
【解析】
【导语】作者结合自身经历论述便捷工具虽好,但付出有效努力才能收获知识与事物的价值。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中的“I’ve loved Simon and Garfunkel since I was a teen. Growing up in Bangladesh, getting their music wasn’t easy. I had to borrow a cassette (磁带), befriend a shop owner, or wait for a friend returning from abroad.(我从青少年时期就喜爱西蒙与加芬克尔。我在孟加拉国长大,获取他们的音乐并不容易。我不得不借磁带、和店主交好,或是等候从国外回来的朋友)”可知,作者年轻时要花费很大功夫才能获取音乐。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Without effort, it’s impossible to grow skills. That’s why watching 20 YouTube videos about mathematics won’t help you learn math by itself. And it’s why Duolingo is really a video game rather than a serious effort to teach languages.(没有付出努力,就不可能提升技能。这就是观看二十个油管数学视频本身无法帮你学好数学的原因。这也是多邻国实质上只是电子游戏,而非一门正经投入精力的语言教学方式的原因)”可知,作者举多邻国的例子是为说明无需费力的工具无法培养真正技能。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中的“A 2025 Harvard-MIT study found that students using AI to write essays learned less, were less creative, and understood the material worse than those who worked through it themselves.(一项2025年哈佛麻省理工联合研究发现,使用人工智能写作文的学生学得更少、创造力更低,对材料的理解也不如独立完成写作的学生)” 知,自主付出努力学习比依赖人工智能更有益。
【15题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段中的“The key is to tell the difference: some difficulties are just annoying (like typing or formatting), but others are part of the activity. Writing in your own words helps you find your thoughts; solving a math problem teaches you to see patterns; cooking without a recipe builds instinct (本能).(关键是区分二者:有些困难只是恼人的琐事(例如打字或排版),但另一些是活动本身的一部分。用自己的话写作帮你理清思路;解数学题教会你发现规律;不依靠菜谱做饭培养直觉)”可知,一步步解数学题是作者认为必要且有价值的。
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。
Goals offer a practical approach for making lifestyle changes by focusing on specific, measurable, attainable, relevant, and time-bound objectives. Some goals seem more likely to succeed than others. ____16____
The key difference lies in how each type of goal responds to challenges. A performance goal is one where you try to achieve a specific outcome. ____17____ When challenges come up in trying to meet a mastery goal, they are often seen as a natural part of the goal-achievement process. These challenges encourage problem-solving and active engagement. For example, suppose you set a goal to walk every night after dinner. ____18____ You can simply switch to a walk during your lunch break, which still helps you meet your goal.
____19____ Think about a goal of losing 20 pounds. If you don’t lose exactly 20 pounds, you may feel defeated and like you’ve failed to meet your goal, even if you’ve succeeded in making some changes to your lifestyle.
If you have a mastery goal in mind, it can be easier to break it down into smaller, mastery-based goals in specific, measurable ways. ____20____ For example, if you want to lose 20 pounds, you could break that goal down into making dietary changes and increasing your physical activity. Research has shown goals are an effective tool for people who want to make health-related changes in their lives.
A. This method turns targets into actionable tasks.
B. Many people fail in weight-loss for low exercise plans.
C. But work tasks may keep you from sticking to that routine.
D. Besides, not reaching a performance goal can feel like a failure.
E. A performance goal focuses on overcoming unexpected challenges.
F. For example, “mastery” goals are more approachable than “performance” goals.
G. In contrast, a mastery goal is one where you improve an ability you already have.
【答案】16. F 17. G 18. C 19. D 20. A
【解析】
【导语】文章围绕“目标设定与行为改变”这一心理学主题展开,先介绍目标设定的作用,再对比“表现型目标”与“掌握型目标”的特点,随后通过案例分析两种目标的应对方式,最后总结掌握型目标的分解方法。
【16题详解】
空格前“Some goals seem more likely to succeed than others.(有些目标似乎比其他目标更有可能成功。)”提出了“目标成功率不同”的观点。F选项“For example, “mastery” goals are more approachable than “performance” goals.(例如,‘掌握型’目标比‘表现型’目标更容易实现。)”中的“mastery goals”和“performance goals”是对前文“some goals”的具体举例,通过对比两种目标的成功率,承接前文观点,同时为后文介绍两种目标的特点做铺垫,逻辑衔接自然。
【17题详解】
空格前“A performance goal is one where you try to achieve a specific outcome.(表现型目标是你努力实现特定结果的目标。)”介绍了表现型目标的定义。G选项“In contrast, a mastery goal is one where you improve an ability you already have.(相比之下,掌握型目标是你提高已具备能力的目标。)”中的“In contrast”与前文形成对比,通过对比两种目标的定义,补充了掌握型目标的特点,与后文“当挑战出现时,掌握型目标将其视为实现目标过程中的自然部分”形成呼应,逻辑递进清晰。
【18题详解】
空格前“For example, suppose you set a goal to walk every night after dinner.(例如,假设你设定了一个每天晚饭后散步的目标。)”举了一个掌握型目标的例子。C选项“But work tasks may keep you from sticking to that routine.(但工作任务可能会让你无法坚持这个习惯。)”中的“But”承接前文“每天晚饭后散步”的目标,通过转折引出“工作任务影响坚持”的挑战,与后文“你可以简单地改为午休时散步,这仍然有助于你实现目标”形成解决方案呼应,逻辑连贯。
【19题详解】
空格后“Think about a goal of losing 20 pounds. If you don’t lose exactly 20 pounds, you may feel defeated and like you’ve failed to meet your goal, even if you’ve succeeded in making some changes to your lifestyle.(想想一个减掉20磅的目标。如果你没有减掉整整20磅,你可能会感到挫败,就像你没有实现目标一样,即使你成功地改变了一些生活方式。)”举了表现型目标失败的例子。D选项“Besides, not reaching a performance goal can feel like a failure.(此外,没有达到表现型目标可能会让人感觉失败。)”作为段落主旨句,直接点明了表现型目标的局限性——未达成时会感觉失败,为后文举例做了铺垫,逻辑统领全段。
【20题详解】
空格前“If you have a mastery goal in mind, it can be easier to break it down into smaller, mastery-based goals in specific, measurable ways.(如果你心中有一个掌握型目标,你可以更容易地将其分解为更小、具体、可衡量的掌握型目标。)”提到了掌握型目标的分解方法。A选项“This method turns targets into actionable tasks.(这种方法将目标转化为可操作的任务。)”中的“This method”指代前文“分解掌握型目标”的方法,直接说明了分解方法的作用——将目标转化为可操作任务,与后文“例如,如果你想减掉20磅,你可以将这个目标分解为改变饮食和增加体力活动”形成呼应,逻辑衔接紧密。

My neighbor was always posting online about Jazzercise, which I’d ____23____ as too outdated. But after ____24____ to find a replacement for my physical health, I decided to visit a ____25____ one day after work.
I don’t know what I was ____26____. Maybe leg warmers, a disco ball, and Barry Manilow on the sound system? What I saw instead was a(n) ____27____ class full of women ranging from their 20s to 80s, dancing to music! I ____28____ explained my foot situation to the studio owner. I told her that while I love ____29____, I wasn’t sure if this program could ____30____ me. She picked out some low-impact classes and ____31____ me to try them.
I started the next day. Terms I hadn’t ____32____ since my primary school days of dance class brought back past ____33____, and muscle memory soon kicked in. I went almost every day for two weeks and my foot didn’t ____34____ me.

第二节(满分25分)
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 I found out I had become an uncle at the age of 22, I was studying languages and spending my exchange year in Madrid back in 1997. I got the unexpected phone call from my mother, who told me that my sister had just given birth to a baby boy, Leo. At that moment, the news sounded abstract and distant, far away from my wild late-night parties. I was lost in the free-spirited local lifestyle and could hardly picture myself playing the role of an uncle, a responsible family member. I planned to fly home three months later once my semester finished, but before the reunion, unpleasant childhood experiences came into my mind and made me afraid of meeting the newborn.
Growing up, I lived in a crowded neighbourhood filled with noisy kids. I was often disturbed. Whenever I tried to focus on reading, the kids would interrupt me or mess up my belongings. Those annoying encounters left me with a strong dislike for small children. For years, I kept away from little kids, convinced babies were noisy and troublesome to get along with. I never imagined I would form a close bond with a child someday.
When I finally stepped into my sister’s living room three months later, the smell of baby and warm milk immediately made me want to turn around. I crossed my arms and kept my distance from his cradle (摇篮), refusing to even touch the baby’s blanket. Beside the bed, Mum sang softly to calm the baby. She said, “All kids are angels (天使).” Her words stayed in my head, but his cries still brought back bad memories of noisy children. I made up my mind to leave soon.
The next day after my first visit, my mother and sister had something urgent to deal with. They rang me up and told me to take care of the baby. Though unwilling, I still showed up. They left, leaving us alone in the bedroom.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150个左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Suddenly, Little Leo burst into loud, helpless cries.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Finally, he calmed down and smiled at me.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】例文:
Suddenly, Little Leo burst into loud, helpless cries. Having no experience of comforting a baby, I was thrown into panic. I rocked his cradle awkwardly back and forth, yet the sharp crying never faded. Then it crossed my mind that Mom always sang a song, so I tried singing in a low voice but failed again. Worn out and upset after all fruitless attempts, I sank beside the cradle, fixed my eyes on him and slowly held his tiny soft hand. To my surprise, his cry grew weaker little by little.
Finally, he calmed down and smiled at me. His pure and innocent smile touched my heart gently, sweeping away my dislike of children. In the following days, I took the initiative to visit Leo often. I would accompany him quietly, watch him wave his little hands and stare at the world curiously, and talk to him softly even if he could not respond. Gradually, Mom’s words — “All kids are angels” — echoed in my mind. And I finally came to believe them, wholeheartedly.
【解析】
【导语】本文讲述22岁的“我”在西班牙交换期间得知成为舅舅,却因童年被邻家孩子打扰的负面经历而对婴儿Leo心存抗拒。被迫独自照顾时,从手足无措到意外发现安抚之道,最终被婴儿纯真笑容打动,领悟到“所有孩子都是天使”的真谛。
【详解】1. 段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容可知,本段应描写“我”从慌乱到尝试各种方法 (摇晃摇篮、低声唱歌) 均失败,最终疲惫坐下、握住婴儿小手,哭声渐弱的意外转折。
②由第二段首句内容可知,本段应描写纯真笑容打动内心、消除厌恶、主动频繁探望、陪伴观察、低声交流,最终认同母亲话语、全心相信孩子是天使的感悟。
2. 续写线索: 突然大哭→慌乱无措→尝试摇晃→尝试唱歌→疲惫失败→坐下凝视→握住小手→哭声渐弱→平静微笑→打动内心→消除厌恶→主动探望→陪伴观察→低声交流→认同母亲→全心相信
3. 词汇激活

①摇晃:rock/sway
②探望:visit/call on/see/drop in on/pay a visit to

【点睛】【高分句型1】Then it crossed my mind that Mom always sang a song, so I tried singing in a low voice but failed again.(运用了it作形式主语,that引导的主语从句作真正的主语。)

I used to believe I had a good handle on love and cooking. I grew up in Brooklyn, New York and comfort food was central to my life. However, when I fell in love with my now-husband, Alex, I realized I needed to learn much more. Alex follows a specific diet due to his religious beliefs, and I wanted to accept his way of life. Yet, after we moved in together, I often stood in our kitchen feeling lost, unsure of what I could prepare for us.
Adapting to his dietary rules meant learning a completely new routine: separate dishes for meat and dairy, no butter with chicken, none of the easy shortcuts I’d grown up with. Even simple foods came with surprises. I missed the comfort foods I knew how to make. I wanted something warm and familiar that felt like us.
Then, I found a recipe in a magazine for a light chicken pot pie. It looked simple and warm, exactly what I was craving. What made it special was that it accidentally fit Alex’s diet. Instead of using butter, the recipe relied on warm chicken soup to create a rich, creamy texture (口感). For me, it felt like a small miracle.
I tried making it, carefully mixing the broth (高汤) and flour, hoping it would turn out perfectly. When I tasted the pie, I felt a sense of confidence I had never experienced before. It was delicious! It was comforting and creamy, filled with flavors I loved, yet it respected Alex’s traditions. That night, the pot pie became more than just dinner; it became “our” dish.
Over the years, that recipe has moved with us. It has been cooked in small apartments and large houses, appearing on both difficult days and joyful ones. I still keep the original piece of paper. This story is no longer just about a chicken pot pie. It is about learning to meet in the middle, adjusting traditions, and building a life together. Some love stories begin with grand gestures, but ours started with a simple recipe that continues to sustain us.
4. Why did the author feel lost after moving in with Alex?
A. She had no cooking experience. B. She disliked preparing comfort food.
C. She was unfamiliar with his dietary rules. D. She preferred eating out to cooking.
5. What does the underlined word “craving” in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Wanting. B. Creating. C. Avoiding. D. Preparing.
6. Why does the author call the pot pie “our” dish?
A. It was taught by her husband Alex. B. It was the only food they both liked.
C. It reminded them of their former home. D. It became a symbol of their shared life.
7. What does the author most likely believe about their love story?
A. Grand gestures are the most common way to show love.
B. Small acts of adaptation matter more than grand gestures.
C. Food can help bridge religious differences in relationships.
D. Their love story matters less without big romantic moments.
C
Research indicates that eyes, as an outward part of the central nervous system, may reveal early signs of cognitive (认知的) decline. Two large studies, one in the UK and one in Australia, suggest that poor performance on simple vision tests is associated with a higher risk of developing dementia (老年痴呆) over the following decade.
The 2024 UK study found that participants with slower visual processing speeds were more likely to develop dementia in the following 12 years. The Australian study discovered that declining eyesight significantly predicted cognitive decline over a similar period. Nikki-Anne Wilson, lead author of the Australian study, said that vision loss can come from treatable factors like cataracts (白内障) or incorrect glasses. Identifying and addressing these changes early may help reduce dementia risk.
Based on new evidence, The Lancet’s 2024 Commission on dementia identified late-life vision loss as a new risk factor, contributing to up to 2.2% of dementia cases, while untreated mid-life hearing loss accounts for about 7%. However, hearing or vision loss doesn’t mean an individual is certain to develop dementia, as these issues can signal various health problems.
At a population level, wearing hearing aids may reduce dementia risk, and the same might apply to treating vision issues. Assessing sensory problems in older adults is thus crucial. The Australian study analyzed 2,281 participants and found that declining vision predicted poorer problem-solving, memory, and attention scores, partly due to reduced social contact. Wilson explained that people with poor vision may avoid social events, impacting their cognitive performance.
The UK study involved over 8,000 participants taking a vision test. Those with slower visual processing speeds were more likely to develop dementia by the end, though the test couldn’t predict individual cases.

I’ve loved Simon and Garfunkel since I was a teen. Growing up in Bangladesh, getting their music wasn’t easy. I had to borrow a cassette (磁带), befriend a shop owner, or wait for a friend returning from abroad. Once I had a tape, I played it repeatedly — it was all I had.
Today, finding music is simple. I just ask Siri, and it plays. This applies to more than music: recipes, cooking skills, even dating. We can “meet” partners by looking through apps on our phones, no need to leave home.
This is progress, but we should be careful. Sometimes, paying a price for things matters. Effort isn’t just a cost — it helps us. First, effort makes data functional. It turns information into personal knowledge. Without effort, it’s impossible to grow skills. That’s why watching 20 YouTube videos about mathematics won’t help you learn math by itself. And it’s why Duolingo is really a video game rather than a serious effort to teach languages.
Second, effort makes things meaningful. My hard work to get that cassette made the songs special — if I’d found them on the Internet, they wouldn’t have mattered as much. A 2025 Harvard-MIT study found that students using AI to write essays learned less, were less creative, and understood the material worse than those who worked through it themselves.
But we shouldn’t praise effort for no reason. Some effort is just busywork — unnecessary tasks that don’t help. The key is to tell the difference: some difficulties are just annoying (like typing or formatting), but others are part of the activity. Writing in your own words helps you find your thoughts; solving a math problem teaches you to see patterns; cooking without a recipe builds instinct (本能). These struggles aren’t barriers — they’re how you grow, gain skills, and find meaning.
Convenience is a gift, but we mustn’t let it take away the struggles that shape us. The question isn’t “How can I make this easier?” but “What kind of difficulty is this? Does it delay me, or does it develop me?” We should keep the right struggles, not all of them.

A. He had to make great efforts to get music.
B. He got music from his friends abroad for free.

C. To suggest language learning should be interesting.
D. To illustrate how effortless tools fail to build real skills.
14. What can we infer from the 2025 Harvard-MIT study?

Goals offer a practical approach for making lifestyle changes by focusing on specific, measurable, attainable, relevant, and time-bound objectives. Some goals seem more likely to succeed than others. ____16____
The key difference lies in how each type of goal responds to challenges. A performance goal is one where you try to achieve a specific outcome. ____17____ When challenges come up in trying to meet a mastery goal, they are often seen as a natural part of the goal-achievement process.

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 I found out I had become an uncle at the age of 22, I was studying languages and spending my exchange year in Madrid back in 1997. I got the unexpected phone call from my mother, who told me that my sister had just given birth to a baby boy, Leo. At that moment, the news sounded abstract and distant, far away from my wild late-night parties. I was lost in the free-spirited local lifestyle and could hardly picture myself playing the role of an uncle, a responsible family member. I planned to fly home three months later once my semester finished, but before the reunion, unpleasant childhood experiences came into my mind and made me afraid of meeting the newborn.
Growing up, I lived in a crowded neighbourhood filled with noisy kids. I was often disturbed. Whenever I tried to focus on reading, the kids would interrupt me or mess up my belongings. Those annoying encounters left me with a strong dislike for small children. For years, I kept away from little kids, convinced babies were noisy and troublesome to get along with. I never imagined I would form a close bond with a child someday.
When I finally stepped into my sister’s living room three months later, the smell of baby and warm milk immediately made me want to turn around. I crossed my arms and kept my distance from his cradle (摇篮), refusing to even touch the baby’s blanket. Beside the bed, Mum sang softly to calm the baby. She said, “All kids are angels (天使).” Her words stayed in my head, but his cries still brought back bad memories of noisy children. I made up my mind to leave soon.
The next day after my first visit, my mother and sister had something urgent to deal with. They rang me up and told me to take care of the baby. Though unwilling, I still showed up. They left, leaving us alone in the bedroom.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150个左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Suddenly, Little Leo burst into loud, helpless cries.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Finally, he calmed down and smiled at me.
