B All I had to do for the small sum of money was to take care of the old man in the neighborhood for a few hours every day.It was a peaceful task in a nice house filled with things that were rare in my own home. Caring for him gave me a feeling of achievement.I could use part of the money to buy some books I longed for and also help my family with daily expenses.I wasn't like those children who had nothing to do but play.I had a role that made me feel important and grown-up.I received kind words and grateful looks from the old man and his family, which made me stand out from just being an ordinary child. In those times,children were not just for fun;they were useful.They could assist the elderly,run errands,and do simple household repairs.But now,it seems children are mainly focused on studies and hobbies.They are pampered()and have few real responsibilities. Gradually,I became better at taking care of the old man.I leamed how to cook simple meals for him and keep him company in a more engaging way.He started to give me some old but valuable collectibles as a reward.I was excited to have them as they were things I could never afford before. Still,I sometimes felt a bit overworked.But I was unwilling to complain.I knew my parents would tell me to be grateful for the opportunity.One day,when I was talking to my grandfather,I let out my feelings.He then said,"Child,you are doing a good thing. But remember,you are not defined by this job.You have your own life and dreams.The work is just a part of your experience,not the whole of you." Since then,I have engaged in various activities and tasks,some easy and some difficult.But I have always remembered my grandfather's words and never let any work overshadow my sense of self or my personal goals. 24.What mainly made the author feel a sense of achievement in taking care of the old man?

Having noticed the problem,the local community set up colorful slides,double swings,a new basketball court and a grassy play area.Kids also gained access to a variety of loose equipment,such as balls and Hula-Hoops. The makeover not only improved the playground's appearance but also had a significant impact on children's activity levels.To assess the impact,Elena Kuo,a senior consultant at Washington Health Research Institute,and her team conducted pre-and post-intervention observations and follow-up assessments one year later.They found that the share of children engaging in energetic physical activity doubled following the makeover.Remarkably,this increased activity level lasted even a year later. "A lot of things,when they're new and shiny,lead to increased physical activity, which sometimes lasts long,"says Elena Kuo,"That's why it's a pretty exciting finding." Being physically active has many benefits for kids:It reduces obesity ()risk and improves overall physical and mental health,promotes social and emotional development and boosts academic performance.The WHO (World Health Organization) recommends that schoolchildren get 60 minutes of mild to energetic activity every day. Most kids fall far short of that goal.Globally,81 percent of 11-to 17-year-olds fail to reach that level,according to an analysis reported in the Lancet. Scientists across the globe are studying how to make full use of the opportunity that playgrounds provide.Research teams are using digital cameras,GPS tags and other wearable technology to study how kids behave on playgrounds and are conducting random controlled trials to assess whether certain playground features,programs and designs can encourage kids to move more. 28.What may be the primary reason for the school's playground makeover? A.To improve the appearance of the playground. B.To equip the local community with sports facilities C.To support a study on the impact of playground design. D.To increase students'participation in physical activity. 29.What do Elena Kuo'words"a pretty exciting finding"refer to? A.The continued impact of the makeover. B.The new and shiny playground facilities. C.The overall benefits of exercises for children. D.The passion of kids for physical activity. 30.What research method was used in the study of Elena Kuo'team? A.Assessing children's physical and mental problems B.Interviewing students and teachers randomly. C.Observing and tracking children's behavior. D.Comparing their data with WHO's activity guidelines. 31.What can we learn from the last paragraph? 6 A.Scientists are worrying about the safety of playgrounds. B.Sentiststudying plygrounds toboos kidshysic C.Scientists are applying technology toencourage kids to move. D:Scentistsare updating playgrounds withmodequment D In recent years,much of my life,as a consumer has shifted to what I like to call background spending.As I've subscribed to more apps and streaming platforms, significant sums of my money tend to slip away each month without my ever thinking about it. Think of it as automated trade.Spending without the trouble of spending. Acquisition(获得)without action or thought. But while this flood of subscriptions was sold to me on the condition that it would make my life more trouble free,there was a certain shock I felt upon discovering how much I was spending without realizing each month($179.45). You see,the thing about background spending is that it tends to happen,well,in the background without your full attention.And there lies the point. "Hand over your credit card details and let us take care of the rest,"these companies promise us.But by agreeing to this trade,we've become lazy passive consumers.And this laziness breeds more laziness because most of us can't be bothered with conducting regular reviews of our subscription spending.We're too lazy to even notice or cancel! I know it's not just me who is suddenly living life as a smooth-brained subscriber. The average consumer spends $273 per month on subscriptions,according to a 2021 study of 2,500 by digital services firm West Monroe.Not a single person surveyed knew what his actual monthly spending was. It's understandable why this model is so attractive to businesses.As companies questioned traditional advertising models,subscriptions offered the promise of"selling once and earning forever."And while subscription services have been around for decades (think Wine of the Month Club),more customers have been willing to sign up thanks to the widespread availability of smartphones and the increasing ease of home delivery. While these subscriptions promise ease and happiness,not all of us are satisfied.Last year,the Kearney Consumer Institute found 40 percent of consumers believe they have too many subscriptions.Almost half of us also think we pay too much for streaming video-on-demand subscriptions. 32.What can we know about background spending in paragraph 2? A.Its purpose C.Its feature. B.Its procedure. D.Its requirement. 3.Whatmakes sbor background spendito happen? A.Its attractive price. C.Some people's poor habit. B.Its secure service. 34.Why is the subscription model appealing to businesses? D.Some people's addiction to it. A.It offers good home delivery services. B.It brings repeated profits through a single sale. C.It is popular among smartphone producers. D.It is like traditional advertising models 35.What's the author's attitude towards background spending? A.Critical. B.Optimistic. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） C.Supportive. D.Unclear. 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为 多余选项。 Sometimes it seems that we can't feel any joy in life.We all have such bad days. However,an inability to feel joy is not the norm and requires attention.36Luckily, there are steps we can take to generate joy. 37 Learning to recognize emotions that inhibit (our ability to access joy.

Mark couldn't understand it.His dad was brilliant and spent quality time with him -why would he risk his health?What if it led to an early death?Had he ever considered how heartbroken it would make him and his mom? Mark's mind wandered back to a conversation he had overheard between his parents. His mom had been pleading (with his dad,her voice full of worry."You need to think about your health,for Mark's sake if not for your own,"she had said.But his dad just brushed her off,saying he was too stressed to quit. One evening,Mark approached his mom to discuss the issue."I've tried to persuade him to quit,"Mark's mom expressed with a sigh."But he always gets annoyed whenever I bring up the subject."She looked tired and defeated."At least your dad is considerate with his smoking;he never does it indoors or around others.He even changes his clothes to prevent us from smelling the smoke.Despite that,it's still so hard on him,on us..
