Three weeks earlier, my family moved across the country after my mum changed jobs. 1 a new school in the middle of the term felt like hitting reset on my whole life. At lunch that first day, I sat at a corner table pretending (假装) to be very interested in my phone while 2 searching for “how to survive being the new kid”. Teen articles kept saying the same thing—feeling worried during a school transition (过渡期) is normal. That helped a little, but it still felt 3 . The first week was awful. I got lost looking for the chemistry class, mispronounced a teacher’s name, and accidentally walked into the wrong classroom twice. But something small started to 4 when a boy asked if I wanted to join his group in the science lab. That made the whole day easier. One thing I learned quickly is that most students don’t 5 you as much as you think. Everyone is busy worrying about their own things. Slowly, I found a way to 6 . Instead of trying to do many big things right away, I focused on simple things, like learning two classmates’ names a week and asking one question in a class. Those small wins slowly built up my confidence. By the end of the term, things looked very 7 . I joined the photography club and started hanging out with my classmates after school. Changing schools in the middle of the term was not easy, but it taught me something important about resilience (适应力) and 8 . Feeling uneasy does not last forever. If you are the new kid right now, hang in there. The hallway that feels strange today may become the place where you begin your new stage of life. 1．A．Starting B．Visiting C．Supporting D．Enjoying 2．A．suddenly B．excitedly C．angrily D．secretly 3．A．unwise B．unreasonable C．uncomfortable D．unimportant 4．A．return B．change C．increase D．move 5．A．push B．judge C．protect D．respect 6．A．show up B．stand out C．come back D．fit in 7．A．different B．strange C．common D．serious 8．A．honesty B．freedom C．confidence D．cooperation 【答案】1．A 2．D 3．C 4．B 5．B 6．D 7．A 8．C 【导语】本文主要讲述了作者作为转校生，在学期中途来到新学校的经历。起初感到不安，但通过从小事做起，逐渐融入了新环境，建立了自信，并明白了适应力的重要性。 【详解】1．句意：在学期中途开始一所新学校感觉就像是我整个人生按下了重启键。 根据前文“my family moved across the country”和“I was the new kid”可知，作者是转学，所以是“开始”（Starting）一所新学校。 Visiting“参观”：只是短暂参观，不是长期上学；Supporting“支持”，语义完全无关；Enjoying“享受”：“享受新学校”和后文“人生按下重启、内心忐忑”消极情绪矛盾。 2．句意：第一天吃午饭时，我坐在角落的桌子旁，假装对手机很感兴趣，同时偷偷地搜索“如何作为新来的孩子生存下来”。 根据“pretending to be very interested in my phone”（假装对手机很感兴趣）可知，作者不想让别人知道他在搜什么，所以是“偷偷地、秘密地”（secretly）搜索。suddenly“突然”语境不符；excitedly“兴奋地”：兴奋和自卑不安心境相反；angrily“生气地”：愤怒情绪原文没有。 3．句意：那有一点帮助，但仍然感觉很不舒服。 根据前文“feeling worried during a school transition is normal”以及转折连词“but”可知，虽然文章说正常，但作者自己心里还是觉得“不舒服/不安”（uncomfortable）。unwise“不明智的”、unreasonable“不合理的”、unimportant“不重要的”均贴合不了转学新生孤单别扭的心情。 4．句意：但是当一个男孩问我是否想加入他在科学实验室的小组时，一些小事开始发生改变。 根据前文“The first week was awful.”（第一周很糟糕）和后文“That made the whole day easier.”可知，情况开始发生“改变”（change）。return“返回”：没有回去的对象；increase“增加”：不能用来形容处境；move“移动”：侧重物理位移，不能形容境遇。 5．句意：我很快学到的一件事是，大多数学生并不像你想象的那样评判你。 根据后文“Everyone is busy worrying about their own things.”可知，每个人都忙于自己的事情，没空去“评判”（judge）你。push“推”、protect“保护”、respect“尊重”代入句意逻辑不通。 6．句意：慢慢地，我找到了融入的方法。 根据后文“I focused on simple things, like learning two classmates’ names a week...”可知，作者在努力“融入”（fit in）新环境。show up“出现”：语义完全不匹配；stand out“突出，显眼”：“出风头” 和作者小心翼翼从小事做起的做法相反；come back“回来”：语义完全不匹配。 7．句意：到学期末，情况看起来大不相同了。 根据后文“I joined the photography club and started hanging out with my classmates after school.”可知，与刚开始的糟糕情况相比，现在情况变得“不同”（different）了。strange“陌生的”：陌生是刚来时的状态；common“常见的”和serious“严肃的，严重的”均不符合前后对比的文意。 8．句意：在学期中途转学并不容易，但它教会了我关于适应力和自信的重要一课。 根据前文“Those small wins slowly built up my confidence.”可知，这段经历教会了作者适应力和“自信”（confidence）。honesty“诚实”和freedom“自由”原文无对应线索；cooperation“合作”不是文章核心主旨感悟。 Passage 2 Learning to Cook Do you know how to cook?

A bird flew freely across the sky, cutting through a white cloud. Total freedom, she thought, wishing she could escape (摆脱) math class like that bird. Her mind wandered to her horse, Star, and the summer days riding him. Lost in her daydream, she didn’t hear Mrs. Landon calling her name until the teacher’s voice brought her back. The class laughed as Mrs. Landon asked about the homework. “I didn’t have trouble doing it,” Madison said, “but I forgot to bring it.” More laughter filled the room. Mrs. Landon sighed, clearly disappointed with Madison’s constant daydreaming, and mentioned talking to her parents. Soon, Mrs. Landon introduced a special guest: Dr. Landon, an animal doctor visiting for Career Day. He talked about how important school grades were and how hard he studied math and science when he was young. Madison found it hard to focus until one word caught her ear: “horse.” Dr. Landon explained that working with horses lets him be outside all day. “Does anyone here have a horse?” he asked. Madison’s hand shot up. “I do! His name is Star!” “A big brown horse on Anderson Road?” Dr. Landon asked. He remembered treating Star. Madison was amazed and happy that he knew her horse. “So you spend your days taking care of horses?” “Most days,” Dr. Landon said, describing his job visiting horses all over the area. “It’s a lot of work, but I love it.” Madison was amazed. A clear picture of her future suddenly appeared: She would be an animal doctor for horses! The idea filled her with excitement. Her life suddenly felt bigger and full of purpose. That afternoon, Madison changed her plans when she got home. She hurried past her surprised parents in the kitchen. “I’m going to study math for an hour,” she said loudly, “then ride Star.” Her parents looked at each other in surprise. “She’s studying before riding?” her mother whispered. Her father shrugged, looking proud. “Must be that talk I had about college last week. I guess she listened.” He smiled, pleased with himself. Madison overheard them as she went upstairs, smiling too. She remembered her dad talking about college last week, but her real inspiration was different: Dr. Landon and his life with horses. She decided she would study math and science hard every night now—those were important subjects for becoming an animal doctor. Her new plan had begun. 12．What was Madison doing when Mrs. Landon called her name? A．She was doing her math exercises. B．She was lost in her daydream. C．She was running after a bird. D．She was riding her horse on the farm. 13．Why did Madison’s parents feel surprised when she got home that afternoon? A．Because Madison studied math before riding her horse. B．Because Madison talked to her parents about her dream. C．Because Madison made a plan to improve her riding skills. D．Because Madison asked Dr. Landon to help her with math. 14．What made Madison begin her new plan? A．Her father talked about college last week. B．Her teacher’s warning to call her parents. C．Her dream of being an animal doctor. D．Her wish to improve her horse-riding performance. 【答案】12．B 13．A 14．C 【导语】本文主要讲述了麦迪逊上课总做白日梦，在职业日遇到动物医生兰登博士，受到启发，树立了成为马科动物医生的梦想，并决定努力学习数学和科学，开启新计划的故事。 【详解】12．第一段指出：“Lost in her daydream, she didn’t hear Mrs. Landon calling her name until the teacher’s voice brought her back.”，说明兰登老师叫麦迪逊名字时，她正沉浸在白日梦中。 13．第八段指出：“I’m going to study math for an hour,” she said loudly, “then ride Star.” Her parents looked at each other in surprise. “She’s studying before riding?” her mother whispered. 说明麦迪逊的父母感到惊讶是因为她回家后先学习数学，再去骑马。 14．第七段指出：“A clear picture of her future suddenly appeared: She would be an animal doctor for horses! The idea filled her with excitement.” 以及最后一段“she decided she would study math and science hard every night now—those were important subjects for becoming an animal doctor. Her new plan had begun.”，说明是成为动物医生的梦想让麦迪逊开启了新计划。 Passage 4 阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。 17-Year-Old Is Youngest to Fly Around the World On August 24, 17-year-old Mack Rutherford landed his microlight airplane safely back in Bulgaria, completing a five-month effort to fly around the world. He has now set the record as the youngest person to fly around the world alone. Mack’s flight began in Bulgaria, where he took off on March 23. He was 16 at the time, but celebrated his birthday during his trip around the world. He flew in a small, two-seater microlight airplane, able to fly at speeds of about 186 mph (300 kph). One of the plane’s seats was replaced with an extra gas tank (油箱), which allowed Mack to cover longer distances. The plane also had satellite communications that let Mack stay in touch with people on the ground. Mack’s route took him over Europe, Africa, Asia, and North America. He visited 30 countries in all, covered 33,630 miles. Though Mack expected his trip to take two to three months, he had to change his ideas. In some places, he had to wait long for getting permission (批准) to fly. Other problems required major changes to his flight plan. Mack also faced lots of other challenges, many of them related to extreme weather. In Sudan, Mack had to deal with sandstorms. He had to fly through heavy rain in India, and ended up with water in his gas tanks. He said crossing the Pacific Ocean was the most difficult part of the trip. After a 10-hour flight from Japan, he had to land—just as it was getting dark—on an island with no one else on it. He spent the night in the open air. In spite of all the difficult times, Mack described the trip as “amazing”. Now Mack has set the record for the youngest person to fly around the world alone, beating 18-year-old English pilot, Travis Ludlow, who set the record last year. Mack says he hopes his trip will show young people they can make a difference. “You don’t need to be 18 to do something special. Just follow your dreams and they will eventually come true,” he said. 15．When did Mack land his microlight plane in Bulgaria? ________________________________________________________________ 16．How did Mack keep in touch with people on the ground? ________________________________________________________________ 17．Which part of the trip was the most difficult for Mack? ________________________________________________________________ 18．Do you think Mack is a role model for young people? Why or why not? (State at least two reasons) ________________________________________________________________ 【答案】15．On August 24. 16．He kept in touch with people on the ground through satellite communications. 17．Crossing the Pacific Ocean. 18．Yes, I do. Because his trip will show young people they can make a difference, just follow your dreams and they will eventually come true. 【导语】本文介绍麦克乘坐微型轻型飞机的环球之旅，他创造了世界最年轻的单人飞行纪录。 【详解】15．根据第一段“On August 24, 17-year-old Mack Rutherford landed his microlight airplane safely back in Bulgaria…”可知，麦克于8月24日在保加利亚降落了微型飞机。故填On August 24. 16．根据第三段“The plane also had satellite communications that let Mack stay in touch with people on the ground.”可知，他通过卫星通信与地面上的人们保持联系。故填He kept in touch with people on the ground through satellite communications. 17．根据第七段“He said crossing the Pacific Ocean was the most difficult part of the trip.”可知，穿越太平洋是这次旅行中最困难的部分。故填Crossing the Pacific Ocean. 18．根据文中“Mack历尽辛苦，创造了世界最年轻的单人飞行纪录”可知，他是年轻人的榜样,他的旅行向年轻人展示他们可以有所作为，他的成功告诉人们，只要追随梦想，它们最终会实现。故填Yes, I do. Because his trip will show young people they can make a difference, just follow your dreams and they will eventually come true. 培优拔高·挑战攻坚 Passage 1 Have you ever kept calm and thought twice before speaking when struck by strong emotions? This daily reaction reflects your level of emotional maturity (成熟), a vital personal quality that humans gradually develop from birth and improve continuously throughout life. Psychological studies show that emotional maturity is not an inborn talent but a learned ability that keeps improving with personal growth and life experience. Emotional maturity and emotional intelligence are related but different. Emotional intelligence refers to your ability to understand and manage your emotions. Emotional maturity, however, focuses more on people’s behavioral responses to various emotions and feelings, as well as their ability to reflect on their inner feelings and take responsibility for their emotional states. Generally speaking, being emotionally mature means you can recognize your emotions in different situations, take ownership of them and handle them in a constructive way. It also means that you’re aware of your triggers (诱因) for certain emotions, and able to accept when you’re in the wrong or overreacting. A psychological survey proves a clear gap between them: emotional intelligence helps people identify and understand emotions accurately, while emotional maturity enables people to make decisions and respond appropriately to negative or positive feelings. People with high emotional maturity can choose different ways to react to situations. They are willing to pause and analyze their inner reactions, which allows them to tell apart sudden situational pressure and other hidden factors that cause emotional changes. Most importantly, they firmly understand that all emotions originate from their inner selves rather than outside conditions. Statistics show that over 70 percent of emotionally mature individuals refuse to vent (发泄) negative feelings on others or shift responsibility for their bad moods to people around them. It is worth noting that emotional maturity does not mean never losing temper. A study in 2024 points out the key difference: mature individuals can actively apologize and move forward quickly. They will not be trapped in lasting guilt or allow negative emotions to take up extra mental energy. Besides, they are willing to accept sincere apologies and understand everyone makes emotional mistakes. This is why emotional maturity helps with relationships. Emotional maturity is a lifelong growing skill. Nevertheless, the normal development of it can be affected by things like lack of sleep, poor nutrition, some medications, chronic stress and so on. If you struggle with emotional maturity, what matters most is to recognize your weaknesses and actively improve yourself to achieve personal growth. 1．Why do emotionally mature people refuse to vent-negative feelings on others? A．They are used to stressful situations in daily life. B．They know bad moods come from within themselves. C．They have learned to recognize their negative emotions. D．They hold their inner feelings back from affecting others. 2．What is the writer’s main purpose in writing Paragraph 5? A．To offer tips on avoiding daily arguments. B．To explain how to build close relationships. C．To show the bad results of long-term negative emotions. D．To correct a common misunderstanding of emotional maturity. 3．According to the passage, who is probably the most emotionally mature? A．The person who is caught in lasting guilt. B．The person who controls his rising feelings. C．The person who points out others’ mistakes. D．The person who keeps silent after a quarrel. 【答案】1．B 2．D 3．B 【导语】本文围绕情绪成熟这一概念展开了系统科普，明确了情绪成熟的属性；说明了情绪成熟和情绪智力的差异；介绍了高情绪成熟者的核心特征；纠正了大众对情绪成熟的常见误解；阐述了情绪成熟是终身成长的技能，它的发展会受睡眠、压力、营养等因素影响，呼吁受情绪成熟问题困扰的人正视自身不足，主动提升实现成长。 【详解】1．根据第四段中“Most importantly, they firmly understand that all emotions originate from their inner selves rather than outside conditions.”可知，情绪成熟的人明白坏情绪来自自身内部，因此拒绝向他人发泄或推卸责任。 2．文章第五段首句指出“It is worth noting that emotional maturity does not mean never losing temper.”，接着阐述了成熟的人发脾气后会主动道歉并快速翻篇，不会陷入持久的内疚，由此可知，这一段主要是为了澄清人们对情绪成熟的一种常见误解（即认为成熟就是完全不发火）。 3．根据第一段中“kept calm and thought twice before speaking”以及第四段中“People with high emotional maturity can choose different ways to react to situations. They are willing to pause and analyze their inner reactions”可知，能够控制情绪上升、深思熟虑后再反应是情绪成熟的表现。 Passage 2 Your fitness watch tells you whether you slept well. The likes and shares on social media show how popular you are. Increasingly, numbers tell us how well we are doing. In a sense, they turn into moral judgments. As societies grow more diverse, traditional ideas about what makes a good life are weakening. People are beginning to form their own ideas of right and wrong from different sources, including scores and rankings (排名，排行). Even parenting, one of the most emotional human roles, is shaped by this logic. Wearable infant (婴儿) monitors translate babies’ breathing, oxygen levels and sleep patterns into charts and alerts (预警提醒). Some parents feel that if a device can watch a baby’s breathing all night, then a truly responsible person should use it. One mother said she felt guilty on nights when she forgot to charge the device—not because anything had gone wrong, but because she had failed to be watchful in the way companies now define good parenting. Another said, “If something happened and I didn’t have it on, I don’t know how I could live with myself.” The monitor had become less a tool and more a test. Parenting is only one example. Health apps turn exercise, sleep and heart rate into scores. Work platforms turn everyday tasks into charts and rankings. Rating systems give drivers, sellers and freelancers (自由职业者) a number to show how reliable they are. Measurement can be useful. However, scoring systems hide assumptions (主观假定) about what being responsible looks like and present them as facts. As these metrics (指标) spread, they shape our understanding of what it means to be a good person. Many of these systems are created by companies with their own interests. They don’t just measure what you do; they also try to change how you behave. The main goal is not to help you succeed, but to make sure your actions benefit those businesses. The next time you see your score and feel proud or uneasy, ask yourself: Whose idea of “good” is reflected here, and is it really the one I want to live by? 4．What does the underlined phrase “this logic” in paragraph 3 refer to? A．Using numbers to judge people’s behavior. B．Weakening traditional ideas about a good life. C．Forming opinions according to one’s own feelings. D．Wearing devices to monitor daily body conditions. 5．What can we infer about the parents in Paragraph 4? A．They use devices to save their own energy. B．They seldom care about others’ parenting ideas. C．They feel relaxed with the help of modern devices. D．They consider the device a standard of good parenting. 6．According to the passage, what is companies’ purpose of using scoring systems? A．To push people to live a healthier life. B．To satisfy people’s practical demands. C．To make people’s actions meet business needs. D．To remind people to be responsible for their behaviors. 7．What does the writer suggest readers do in the passage? A．Use wearable devices properly. B．Trust scores from reliable companies. C．Don’t depend too much on digital measurements. D．Connect traditional ideas with scoring systems to make right judgments. 【答案】4．A 5．D 6．C 7．C 【导语】本文是一篇议论文，主要探讨了现代社会中用数字、评分和排名来衡量个人行为与价值的现象，分析了这类量化方式如何影响人们的判断标准，并指出商业公司利用评分系统实现自身利益的本质，最后呼吁读者理性看待数字评价，反思其背后的价值导向。 【详解】4．根据文章第一段中“numbers tell us how well we are doing. In a sense, they turn into moral judgments.”提到数字告诉我们表现如何，在某种意义上，它们变成了道德评判以及第二段提到人们从分数和排名中形成对错观念，可知第三段划线部分“this logic”指代的是前文所述的“用数字来评判人们的行为”这一逻辑。 5．根据文章第四段中“failed to be watchful in the way companies now define good parenting”提到没能按照公司现在定义的好父母方式保持警惕以及“The monitor had become less a tool and more a test.”明确提到监控器已不再仅仅是一个工具，而更像是一场测试，可以推断出父母们将这些设备视为衡量好父母的标准。 6．根据文章第七段中“The main goal is not to help you succeed, but to make sure your actions benefit those businesses.”明确指出企业打造评分体系的主要目标不是帮助人们，而是让人们的行为为企业利益服务，即让人们的行为满足商业需求。 7．文章最后一段建议读者看到分数时要反思“这是谁定义的‘好’”，以及“是否真的是我想遵循的”，结合全文对评分系统隐藏假设及商业目的的揭示，作者意在建议读者不要过度依赖数字测量，应保持独立判断。 Task 假如你是李华，你所在的学校即将迎来一批外国友好校的同学来校交流访问。这些外国同学对学习中文很感兴趣，但是觉得学习起来有点难。为此，我校将为他们组织一次中文学习方法分享交流活动。作为有学习英语和中文经验的你，请以“How to Learn Chinese Well”为主题，为来访的同学做一次中文学习经验介绍，谈一谈学中文的感受。 提示词语：experience, improve, useful, important 内容提示： ①How do you often learn Chinese ②What suggestions can you give?

Passage 4 阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。 17-Year-Old Is Youngest to Fly Around the World On August 24, 17-year-old Mack Rutherford landed his microlight airplane safely back in Bulgaria, completing a five-month effort to fly around the world. He has now set the record as the youngest person to fly around the world alone. Mack’s flight began in Bulgaria, where he took off on March 23. He was 16 at the time, but celebrated his birthday during his trip around the world. He flew in a small, two-seater microlight airplane, able to fly at speeds of about 186 mph (300 kph). One of the plane’s seats was replaced with an extra gas tank (油箱), which allowed Mack to cover longer distances. The plane also had satellite communications that let Mack stay in touch with people on the ground. Mack’s route took him over Europe, Africa, Asia, and North America. He visited 30 countries in all, covered 33,630 miles. Though Mack expected his trip to take two to three months, he had to change his ideas. In some places, he had to wait long for getting permission (批准) to fly. Other problems required major changes to his flight plan. Mack also faced lots of other challenges, many of them related to extreme weather. In Sudan, Mack had to deal with sandstorms. He had to fly through heavy rain in India, and ended up with water in his gas tanks. He said crossing the Pacific Ocean was the most difficult part of the trip. After a 10-hour flight from Japan, he had to land—just as it was getting dark—on an island with no one else on it. He spent the night in the open air. In spite of all the difficult times, Mack described the trip as “amazing”. Now Mack has set the record for the youngest person to fly around the world alone, beating 18-year-old English pilot, Travis Ludlow, who set the record last year. Mack says he hopes his trip will show young people they can make a difference. “You don’t need to be 18 to do something special. Just follow your dreams and they will eventually come true,” he said. 15．When did Mack land his microlight plane in Bulgaria? ________________________________________________________________ 16．How did Mack keep in touch with people on the ground? ________________________________________________________________ 17．Which part of the trip was the most difficult for Mack? ________________________________________________________________ 18．Do you think Mack is a role model for young people?

This daily reaction reflects your level of emotional maturity (成熟), a vital personal quality that humans gradually develop from birth and improve continuously throughout life. Psychological studies show that emotional maturity is not an inborn talent but a learned ability that keeps improving with personal growth and life experience. Emotional maturity and emotional intelligence are related but different. Emotional intelligence refers to your ability to understand and manage your emotions. Emotional maturity, however, focuses more on people’s behavioral responses to various emotions and feelings, as well as their ability to reflect on their inner feelings and take responsibility for their emotional states. Generally speaking, being emotionally mature means you can recognize your emotions in different situations, take ownership of them and handle them in a constructive way. It also means that you’re aware of your triggers (诱因) for certain emotions, and able to accept when you’re in the wrong or overreacting. A psychological survey proves a clear gap between them: emotional intelligence helps people identify and understand emotions accurately, while emotional maturity enables people to make decisions and respond appropriately to negative or positive feelings. People with high emotional maturity can choose different ways to react to situations. They are willing to pause and analyze their inner reactions, which allows them to tell apart sudden situational pressure and other hidden factors that cause emotional changes. Most importantly, they firmly understand that all emotions originate from their inner selves rather than outside conditions. Statistics show that over 70 percent of emotionally mature individuals refuse to vent (发泄) negative feelings on others or shift responsibility for their bad moods to people around them. It is worth noting that emotional maturity does not mean never losing temper. A study in 2024 points out the key difference: mature individuals can actively apologize and move forward quickly. They will not be trapped in lasting guilt or allow negative emotions to take up extra mental energy. Besides, they are willing to accept sincere apologies and understand everyone makes emotional mistakes. This is why emotional maturity helps with relationships. Emotional maturity is a lifelong growing skill. Nevertheless, the normal development of it can be affected by things like lack of sleep, poor nutrition, some medications, chronic stress and so on. If you struggle with emotional maturity, what matters most is to recognize your weaknesses and actively improve yourself to achieve personal growth. 1．Why do emotionally mature people refuse to vent-negative feelings on others? A．They are used to stressful situations in daily life. B．They know bad moods come from within themselves. C．They have learned to recognize their negative emotions. D．They hold their inner feelings back from affecting others. 2．What is the writer’s main purpose in writing Paragraph 5? A．To offer tips on avoiding daily arguments. B．To explain how to build close relationships. C．To show the bad results of long-term negative emotions. D．To correct a common misunderstanding of emotional maturity. 3．According to the passage, who is probably the most emotionally mature? A．The person who is caught in lasting guilt. B．The person who controls his rising feelings. C．The person who points out others’ mistakes. D．The person who keeps silent after a quarrel. Passage 2 Your fitness watch tells you whether you slept well. The likes and shares on social media show how popular you are. Increasingly, numbers tell us how well we are doing. In a sense, they turn into moral judgments. As societies grow more diverse, traditional ideas about what makes a good life are weakening. People are beginning to form their own ideas of right and wrong from different sources, including scores and rankings (排名，排行). Even parenting, one of the most emotional human roles, is shaped by this logic. Wearable infant (婴儿) monitors translate babies’ breathing, oxygen levels and sleep patterns into charts and alerts (预警提醒). Some parents feel that if a device can watch a baby’s breathing all night, then a truly responsible person should use it. One mother said she felt guilty on nights when she forgot to charge the device—not because anything had gone wrong, but because she had failed to be watchful in the way companies now define good parenting. Another said, “If something happened and I didn’t have it on, I don’t know how I could live with myself.” The monitor had become less a tool and more a test. Parenting is only one example. Health apps turn exercise, sleep and heart rate into scores. Work platforms turn everyday tasks into charts and rankings. Rating systems give drivers, sellers and freelancers (自由职业者) a number to show how reliable they are. Measurement can be useful. However, scoring systems hide assumptions (主观假定) about what being responsible looks like and present them as facts. As these metrics (指标) spread, they shape our understanding of what it means to be a good person. Many of these systems are created by companies with their own interests. They don’t just measure what you do; they also try to change how you behave. The main goal is not to help you succeed, but to make sure your actions benefit those businesses. The next time you see your score and feel proud or uneasy, ask yourself: Whose idea of “good” is reflected here, and is it really the one I want to live by? 4．What does the underlined phrase “this logic” in paragraph 3 refer to? A．Using numbers to judge people’s behavior. B．Weakening traditional ideas about a good life. C．Forming opinions according to one’s own feelings. D．Wearing devices to monitor daily body conditions. 5．What can we infer about the parents in Paragraph 4? A．They use devices to save their own energy. B．They seldom care about others’ parenting ideas. C．They feel relaxed with the help of modern devices. D．They consider the device a standard of good parenting. 6．According to the passage, what is companies’ purpose of using scoring systems? A．To push people to live a healthier life. B．To satisfy people’s practical demands. C．To make people’s actions meet business needs. D．To remind people to be responsible for their behaviors. 7．What does the writer suggest readers do in the passage? A．Use wearable devices properly. B．Trust scores from reliable companies. C．Don’t depend too much on digital measurements. D．Connect traditional ideas with scoring systems to make right judgments.
