Carbon Footprint of Tourism Transport (2025)
Air Travel: 280 kg CO2 per person per short-distance flight (under 2,000 km); 850 kg CO2 per person per long-distance flight (over 6,000 km).
Road Travel: 120 kg CO2 per person per 1,000 km (private car); 35 kg CO2 per person per 1,000 km (bus).
Rail Travel: 12 kg CO2 per person per 1,000 km (electric train); 45 kg CO2 per person per 1,000 km (fuel-oil train).
Water Travel: 180 kg CO2 per person per 1,000 km (steamship); 60 kg CO2 per person per 1,000 km (local ship).
“These data show that sustainability is no longer a ‘nice-to-have’ but a key demand,” says WTO Secretary-General Zurab Pololikashvili. “Destinations that fail to adopt eco-friendly practices risk losing a growing group of conscious travelers.”
The report also notes that 76% of operators have invested (投资) in renewable energy for accommodations, and 68% require staff training in cultural sensitivity — up from 42% and 35% in 2020, respectively.

Ernst Mach was a weak child, born in Moravia(now Czechia)in 1838. He didn’t even go to school until the age of 14. Instead, his parents educated him at home. Like many genius children, his teachers criticized him, calling him “unteachable, absolutely talentless.” Yet young Mach excelled at university in Vienna. He studied mathematics, physics and philosophy. He was also boundlessly curious. He conducted all kinds of experiments, believing that theories must be tried, tested, and proven in facts, but first formulated in the mind. He brought this rigorous(严密的)approach to his studies, believing that true science is based on what actually happens and can be observed.
In addition to his work in the sciences, Mach was also a well-rounded student, with interests in philosophy and even sports. He was an excellent boxer and fencer, which reflected the wide range of his abilities and interests.
As a teacher, Mach was serious and demanding. That was the model of pedagogy (教学)of his time, and Mach followed this standard: tight collar, buttoned-down tie, waistcoat and jacket, and serious eyes behind wire-framed glasses. He expected exactness from his students. Among those he influenced was the young Albert Einstein. Mach’s insistence on clarity and rigorous testing of ideas helped shape Einstein’s thinking. Though Mach was doubtful about some of Einstein’s later conclusions, such as E=mc2, his doubt drove Einstein to prove his ideas further. He pushed the young Einstein to achieve excellence.
While Mach is credited with many theories of his own, including the aircraft velocity(速度)measurement that bears his name, “Mach 1. Mach 2, etc.”, his mentorship of Einstein is perhaps his greatest achievement. The best teachers in our lives also challenge us and see us as not yet complete but full of potential. They shine a light on the path that gets us to a successful reality. And through us, they live on.
4. What can we know about Ernst Mach from paragraph 1?
A. He attended university at the age of 14.
B. He was considered a genius by his teachers.
C. His early education was shaped by his parents.
D. His physical disability discouraged his studying.
5. How did Ernst Mach impact Albert Einstein?
A. He forced Einstein to give in.
B. He challenged Einstein to excel.
C. He introduced new theories to Einstein.
D. He inspired Einstein to focus on physics.

When it comes to back-to-school shopping or choosing makeup colors, the high school student Kayla asks ChatGPT for guidance. However, she avoids using AI to do her homework and limits her interactions to everyday questions. “Everyone uses AI for everything now. It’s really taking over,” said Kayla. “I think kids use AI to get out of thinking.”
But many teenagers say they are increasingly interacting with AI as if it were a companion, capable of providing advice and friendship.
More than 70% of teens have used AI companions and hear turn to them for help regularly, according to a new Media from Common Sense study. For the last couple of years, concerns about cheating at school have dominated the conversation around kids and AI. But artificial intelligence is playing a much larger role in many of their lives, becoming a go-to source for personal advice, emotional support, every day decision-making and problem-solving.
In the Common Sense Media survey, 31% of teens said their conversations with AI companions were “as satisfying or more satisfying” than talking with real friends.
Michael Robb, the study’s lead author, warns that Adolescence is a crucial time for developing identity and social skills, and AI companions should complement — not replace — real-world interaction. “If teens are developing social skills on AI platforms where they are constantly being favored without being challenged, not learning to consider other perspectives, they may not be adequately prepared in the real world,” he said.
Researchers and educators worry about the cognitive costs for youths who rely heavily on AI, especially in their creativity, critical thinking and social skills.
“All of us are struck by how quickly this blew up,” said Eva Telzer, a psychology and neuroscience professor. “I could see a kid that grows up with AI not seeing a reason to go to the park or try to make a friend. I’m worried that kids could get lost in it.”
8. What does Kayla think of the use of AI among kids?
A. It gives them some advice and comfort. B. It helps them escape from mental labor.
C. It pulls them back from the daily chores. D. It enables them to get away from the reality.
9. How has the AI affected the teenagers?
A. Most of them have become entirely dependent on it.
B. Some of them have significantly improved their social skills.
C. Some of them have experienced different levels of satisfaction.
D. Most of them have effectively solved the problem of loneliness.
10. According to Robb, what is a possible risk of youth relying on AI companions?
A. Getting lost in a virtual world. B. Missing out on practical skills.
C. Losing the ability of making friends. D. Lacking preparation for the real world.
11. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?
A. To warn parents of the dangers of AI. B. To analyze the mixed impact of AI on teens.
C. To inform the current trend of AI use in schools. D. To call for the ban on the use of AI among teens.
【答案】8. B 9. C 10. D 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要介绍青少年使用AI伴侣的现状,阐述其影响并提及专家的相关担忧。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“I think kids use AI to get out of thinking.(我认为孩子们使用人工智能是为了逃避思考)”可知,凯拉认为孩子们使用人工智能是为了逃避脑力劳动。故选B。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“In the Common Sense Media survey, 31% of teens said their conversations with AI companions were “as satisfying or more satisfying” than talking with real friends.(在常识媒体的调查中,31%的青少年表示,他们与人工智能伴侣的对话“和与真实朋友交谈一样令人满意或更令人满意”)”可知,一些青少年在与人工智能伴侣的对话中体验到了不同程度的满足感。故选C。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段中“If teens are developing social skills on AI platforms where they are constantly being favored without being challenged, not learning to consider other perspectives, they may not be adequately prepared in the real world(如果青少年在人工智能平台上发展社交技能,在那里他们总是受到青睐而不受挑战,不学会考虑其他观点,那么他们在现实世界中可能没有做好充分的准备)”可知,青少年依赖人工智能伴侣可能面临的风险是对现实世界缺乏准备。故选D。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“But artificial intelligence is playing a much larger role in many of their lives, becoming a go-to source for personal advice, emotional support, every day decision-making and problem-solving.(但人工智能在许多青少年的生活中扮演着更重要的角色,成为个人建议、情感支持、日常决策和解决问题的首选来源)”以及第六段“Researchers and educators worry about the cognitive costs for youths who rely heavily on AI, especially in their creativity, critical thinking and social skills.(研究人员和教育工作者担心,严重依赖人工智能的青少年在认知上会付出代价,尤其是在创造力、批判性思维和社交技能方面)”可知,文章既提到了人工智能对青少年的积极影响,也提到了消极影响,所以作者写这篇文章的目的是分析人工智能对青少年的混合影响。故选B。
D
A new study of the elderly has found napping (小睡) too much in daytime may signal an increasing risk of Alzheimer’s disease. Researchers from Brigham and Women’s Hospital have reported the relationship between the two: napping too much in daytime predicts an increased future risk of Alzheimer’s, and a diagnosis of Alzheimer’s speeds up the increase in napping during aging.
“Daytime sleep behavior of older adults is often ignored, and an agreement for napping in clinical practice and health care is still lacking,” said Peng Li, one of the researchers. “Our team calls for a closer attention to 24-hour sleep patterns — not only nighttime sleep but also a nap — for tracking the health of the elderly.
The researchers recognized that all previous studies on Alzheimer’s disease assessed napping within a participant only once, and most of them were subjective and questionnaire—based. In the new study, more than 1,000 individuals, with an average age of 81, were provided with Actical, a watch-like device, to wear on their wrist for up to 14 days. After nap episodes were identified, the nap duration and frequency were calculated.
The results have suggested that napping too much in daytime may signal an increasing risk of Alzheimer’s, and that faster yearly increase in napping may be a sign of worsening or unfavourable clinical development of the disease.
Researchers have acknowledged that although the method of the new study has been widely used in sleep field studies, they recognize that polysomnography (多导睡眠描记) is the gold standard for sleep scoring. Moreover, the participants studied were the elderly, and therefore, the findings may not be easily translated to young people. In addition, future studies should test whether a direct intervention in a nap can lower the risk of Alzheimer’s.
“We hope to draw more attention to daytime sleep patterns and the importance of patients noting if their sleep schedule changes over time,” said co-senior author Kun Hu of the Medical Biodynamics Program. “Sleep changes are critical in shaping the internal changes in the brain.”
12. What does the new study of the elderly show?
A. The link between a nap and Alzheimer’s. B. The causes and symptoms of Alzheimer’s.
C. The proper amounts of daytime sleep. D. The ways to improve the quality of sleep.
13. How did the researchers conduct the new study?
A. By asking about the participants’ ideas. B. By carrying out a particular questionnaire.
C. By tracking participants’ sleep with a device. D. By assessing participants calculating tasks.
14. What can we infer from Paragraph 5?
A. The method of the new study is perfect. B. The findings are suitable for all ages.
C. Further studies should be carried out. D. Intervention can reduce the risk of Alzheirmer’s.
15. What does Kun Hu talk about?
A. The patterns of daytime sleep. B. The way to make sleep schedules.
C. The causes of brain changes. D. The significance of the new study.
【答案】12. A 13. C 14. C 15. D
【解析】

【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“A new study of the elderly has found napping (小睡) too much in daytime may signal an increasing risk of Alzheimer’s disease. Researchers from Brigham and Women’s Hospital have reported the relationship between the two: napping too much in daytime predicts an increased future risk of Alzheimer’s, and a diagnosis of Alzheimer’s speeds up the increase in napping during aging.(一项针对老年人的新研究发现,白天小睡过多可能会增加患阿尔茨海默病的风险。布莱根妇女医院的研究人员报告了两者之间的关系:白天小睡过多预示着未来患阿尔茨海默氏症的风险增加,而阿尔茨海默氏症的诊断会加速衰老过程中午睡的增加)”可知,新的研究发现了老年人的白天睡眠时间和阿尔茨海默病之间的关系。故选A。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“In the new study, more than 1,000 individuals, with an average age of 81, were provided with Actical, a watch-like device, to wear on their wrist for up to 14 days.(在这项新研究中,研究人员为1000多名平均年龄为81岁的人提供了一种类似手表的设备,让他们在手腕上佩戴长达14天的时间)”可知,研究人员的研究方法是通过使用设备跟踪参与者的睡眠。故选C。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段“In addition, future studies should test whether a direct intervention in a nap can lower the risk of Alzheimer’s.(此外,未来的研究应该测试是否直接干预午睡可以降低患阿尔茨海默氏症的风险)”可知,还需再开展进一步的研究。故选C。
【15题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段““We hope to draw more attention to daytime sleep patterns and the importance of patients noting if their sleep schedule changes over time,” said co-senior author Kun Hu of the Medical Biodynamics Program. “Sleep changes are critical in shaping the internal changes in the brain.”(医学生物动力学项目的资深作者胡坤说:“我们希望引起人们对白天睡眠模式的更多关注,以及患者注意他们的睡眠时间表是否会随着时间的推移而改变的重要性。睡眠变化对大脑内部变化的形成至关重要。”)”可知,Kun Hu主要谈到了这项新研究的意义。故选D。

Scientists at South Korea’s Yonsei University have created a new type of hybrid rice that not only has a meaty pink color but is also packed with beef protein and fat cells.
Rice is already one of the most nutritious foods available in nature, but thanks to some scientific “magic”, it could soon become ____36____ sustainable replacement for meat.

Thanks to the animal cells, this new pink rice could one day become a complete meal by itself, ____39____ (ensure) a sufficient, sustainable food supply for the whole world.
“Imagine ____40____ (obtain) all the nutrients we need from cell-cultured protein rice,” said Park So-hyeon, co-author of the study. He said the team had experimented with different types of food products, ____41____ which they gained lots of understanding, but the models they got weren’t successful.
In the future, scientists plan to use sustainable supplies of cells ____42____ can be maintained in the lab. For now, the percentage of protein in the hybrid rice is still ____43____ (fair) low. So they are also exploring the ____44____ (possible) of mixing the rice with other types of meat or fish, in order to satisfy different tastes. ____45____ (replace) meat actually, researchers need to increase the rice’s protein content significantly.
【答案】36. a 37. cooked
38. enjoyable
39. ensuring
40. obtaining
41. from 42. that##which
43. fairly 44. possibility
45. To replace
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了韩国延世大学的科学家研发出一种新型杂交水稻,它颜色呈肉粉色,富含牛肉蛋白质和脂肪细胞,有望成为肉类的可持续替代品,同时还介绍了该水稻目前的情况及未来科学家的研究计划。
【36题详解】
考查冠词。句意:大米已经是自然界中最有营养的食物之一,但由于一些科学“魔法”,它可能很快会成为肉类的一种可持续替代品。replacement为可数名词单数,此处泛指“一种可持续的替代品”,且sustainable是以辅音音素开头的单词,所以用不定冠词a。
【37题详解】
考查状语从句的省略。句意:这种新的杂交谷物比天然谷物更坚硬,煮熟后仍保持其传统外观。此处为when引导的时间状语从句的省略形式,完整形式为when they are cooked,当主从句主语一致且从句含有be动词时,可省略从句的主语和be动词,此处省略后保留过去分词cooked。
【38题详解】
考查形容词。句意:虽然这种新大米尝起来还不像牛肉,但它确实提供了一种令人愉快的类似肉的风味体验。此处修饰名词flavor experience,应用形容词enjoyable,意为“令人愉快的”。
【39题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:由于含有动物细胞,这种新的粉色大米有朝一日可能独自成为一顿完整的饭,确保为全世界提供充足、可持续的食物供应。此处为非谓语动词作状语,ensure与逻辑主语this new pink rice之间是主动关系,所以用现在分词形式。
【40题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:“想象一下从细胞培养的蛋白质大米中获得我们所需的所有营养,”该研究的共同作者朴素贤说。imagine doing sth.为固定用法,意为“想象做某事”,所以此处用动名词obtaining。
【41题详解】
考查介词。句意:他说,该团队对不同类型的食品进行了实验,从中他们获得了很多了解,但他们得到的模型并不成功。此处为“介词+关系代词”引导的定语从句,先行词为different types of food products,根据句意“从这些食品实验中获得了解”可知,表示“从……中”应用介词from。
【42题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:未来,科学家们计划使用可在实验室中维持的可持续细胞供应。此处为关系词引导的定语从句,先行词为sustainable supplies of cells,指物,关系词在从句中作主语,所以用关系代词which或that。
【43题详解】
考查副词。句意:目前,这种杂交水稻中的蛋白质含量仍然相当低。此处修饰形容词low,应用副词fairly,意为“相当地”。
【44题详解】
考查名词。句意:所以他们也在探索将这种大米与其他种类的肉或鱼混合的可能性,以满足不同的口味。空处作动词exploring的宾语,且被定冠词修饰,提示词的名词形式possibility“可能性”符合。
【45题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:为了真正替代肉类,研究人员需要大幅提高这种大米的蛋白质含量。此处为非谓语动词作目的状语,应用动词不定式,位于句首,首字母需大写。

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。
Last Friday, our class held a voluntary tree-planting activity in the city park. Before setting off, our head teacher Ms. Wang reminded us to work well with our partners. I was paired with Leo, a quiet boy who hardly communicated with classmates, always kept to himself and never took part in group activities.
We carried saplings (树苗) and necessary tools to our working spot. While other classmates chatted and worked cheerfully, Leo kept digging the hole silently without a single word. I attempted to start conversations several times, yet he only gave brief replies. Awkward silence hung between us, leaving me at a loss how to connect with him.
Eager to speed up our progress, I held the shovel (锹) tightly and kept digging the hole hurriedly. Unfortunately, I hit my right leg by accident. A sharp wave of pain swept over me at once. I fell onto the grass and could hardly stand up. My face went pale and I could not move my leg. Seeing my situation, Leo froze (僵住) for a second. Then without any hesitation, he put down his shovel quickly and walked straight towards me.
He knelt down beside me, checked my injury gently and helped me move to a smooth stone bench to rest. Having made a quick judgment in his mind, he fetched cold water and the first-aid box to deal with my injury. After all those, he went back to continue digging the hole all by himself silently. Minutes later, I felt better and went to Leo. We worked side by side. As we finished planting the sapling, the warm sunset wrapped us and the tender young tree.
I stared at our newly-planted sapling and turned to look at Leo. To my surprise, I found a soft smile on his face and it was the first time that I had seen him relax completely. A strange thought crossed my mind — Maybe I was wrong about Leo.
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。
I decided to have a heart-to-heart talk with Leo.

Since then, I’ve explored various ways to help Leo remove his shyness.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
I decided to have a heart-to-heart talk with Leo. I expressed my sincere gratitude to him for giving me a hand when I was injured. I also told him that he was actually warm and helpful despite his quiet look. Hearing my words, Leo looked a little surprised. He then shared that he felt nervous to talk to others and worried that no one would like to stay with him. I comforted him patiently and promised that I would always be his friend. A faint smile appeared on his face again.
Since then, I’ve explored various ways to help Leo remove his shyness. I often invited him to join in our class games and spent some time chatting with him during breaks. I also encouraged him to show himself in group activities bravely. Gradually, Leo stepped out of his own world. He started to take the initiative to talk with our classmates and fit into our big family. Now, the little sapling we planted grows day by day, just like our friendship. That activity has made me understand that a little kindness can light up someone’s lonely world. I’ve made up my mind to be more sensitive and helpful in the future.

Carbon Footprint of Tourism Transport (2025)
Air Travel: 280 kg CO2 per person per short-distance flight (under 2,000 km); 850 kg CO2 per person per long-distance flight (over 6,000 km).
Road Travel: 120 kg CO2 per person per 1,000 km (private car); 35 kg CO2 per person per 1,000 km (bus).
Rail Travel: 12 kg CO2 per person per 1,000 km (electric train); 45 kg CO2 per person per 1,000 km (fuel-oil train).
Water Travel: 180 kg CO2 per person per 1,000 km (steamship); 60 kg CO2 per person per 1,000 km (local ship).
“These data show that sustainability is no longer a ‘nice-to-have’ but a key demand,” says WTO Secretary-General Zurab Pololikashvili. “Destinations that fail to adopt eco-friendly practices risk losing a growing group of conscious travelers.”
The report also notes that 76% of operators have invested (投资) in renewable energy for accommodations, and 68% require staff training in cultural sensitivity — up from 42% and 35% in 2020, respectively.

Ernst Mach was a weak child, born in Moravia(now Czechia)in 1838. He didn’t even go to school until the age of 14. Instead, his parents educated him at home. Like many genius children, his teachers criticized him, calling him “unteachable, absolutely talentless.” Yet young Mach excelled at university in Vienna. He studied mathematics, physics and philosophy. He was also boundlessly curious. He conducted all kinds of experiments, believing that theories must be tried, tested, and proven in facts, but first formulated in the mind. He brought this rigorous(严密的)approach to his studies, believing that true science is based on what actually happens and can be observed.
In addition to his work in the sciences, Mach was also a well-rounded student, with interests in philosophy and even sports. He was an excellent boxer and fencer, which reflected the wide range of his abilities and interests.
As a teacher, Mach was serious and demanding. That was the model of pedagogy (教学)of his time, and Mach followed this standard: tight collar, buttoned-down tie, waistcoat and jacket, and serious eyes behind wire-framed glasses. He expected exactness from his students. Among those he influenced was the young Albert Einstein. Mach’s insistence on clarity and rigorous testing of ideas helped shape Einstein’s thinking. Though Mach was doubtful about some of Einstein’s later conclusions, such as E=mc2, his doubt drove Einstein to prove his ideas further. He pushed the young Einstein to achieve excellence.
While Mach is credited with many theories of his own, including the aircraft velocity(速度)measurement that bears his name, “Mach 1. Mach 2, etc.”, his mentorship of Einstein is perhaps his greatest achievement. The best teachers in our lives also challenge us and see us as not yet complete but full of potential. They shine a light on the path that gets us to a successful reality. And through us, they live on.
4. What can we know about Ernst Mach from paragraph 1?
A. He attended university at the age of 14.
B. He was considered a genius by his teachers.
C. His early education was shaped by his parents.
D. His physical disability discouraged his studying.
5. How did Ernst Mach impact Albert Einstein?
A. He forced Einstein to give in.
B. He challenged Einstein to excel.
C. He introduced new theories to Einstein.
D. He inspired Einstein to focus on physics.
6. Which can best describe Ernst Mach?
A. Cautious and ambitious. B. Professional and influential.
C. Diligent and dependent. D. Incredible and accessible.
7. In which column of a magazine can we probably read this text?
A. Sports. B. Travel. C. Fashion. D. Education.
C
When it comes to back-to-school shopping or choosing makeup colors, the high school student Kayla asks ChatGPT for guidance. However, she avoids using AI to do her homework and limits her interactions to everyday questions. “Everyone uses AI for everything now. It’s really taking over,” said Kayla. “I think kids use AI to get out of thinking.”
But many teenagers say they are increasingly interacting with AI as if it were a companion, capable of providing advice and friendship.
More than 70% of teens have used AI companions and hear turn to them for help regularly, according to a new Media from Common Sense study. For the last couple of years, concerns about cheating at school have dominated the conversation around kids and AI. But artificial intelligence is playing a much larger role in many of their lives, becoming a go-to source for personal advice, emotional support, every day decision-making and problem-solving.
In the Common Sense Media survey, 31% of teens said their conversations with AI companions were “as satisfying or more satisfying” than talking with real friends.
Michael Robb, the study’s lead author, warns that Adolescence is a crucial time for developing identity and social skills, and AI companions should complement — not replace — real-world interaction. “If teens are developing social skills on AI platforms where they are constantly being favored without being challenged, not learning to consider other perspectives, they may not be adequately prepared in the real world,” he said.
Researchers and educators worry about the cognitive costs for youths who rely heavily on AI, especially in their creativity, critical thinking and social skills.
“All of us are struck by how quickly this blew up,” said Eva Telzer, a psychology and neuroscience professor. “I could see a kid that grows up with AI not seeing a reason to go to the park or try to make a friend. I’m worried that kids could get lost in it.”
8. What does Kayla think of the use of AI among kids?
A. It gives them some advice and comfort. B. It helps them escape from mental labor.
C. It pulls them back from the daily chores. D. It enables them to get away from the reality.
9. How has the AI affected the teenagers?
A. Most of them have become entirely dependent on it.
B. Some of them have significantly improved their social skills.
C. Some of them have experienced different levels of satisfaction.
D. Most of them have effectively solved the problem of loneliness.
10. According to Robb, what is a possible risk of youth relying on AI companions?
A. Getting lost in a virtual world. B. Missing out on practical skills.
C. Losing the ability of making friends. D. Lacking preparation for the real world.
11. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?
A. To warn parents of the dangers of AI. B. To analyze the mixed impact of AI on teens.
C. To inform the current trend of AI use in schools. D. To call for the ban on the use of AI among teens.
D
A new study of the elderly has found napping (小睡) too much in daytime may signal an increasing risk of Alzheimer’s disease. Researchers from Brigham and Women’s Hospital have reported the relationship between the two: napping too much in daytime predicts an increased future risk of Alzheimer’s, and a diagnosis of Alzheimer’s speeds up the increase in napping during aging.
“Daytime sleep behavior of older adults is often ignored, and an agreement for napping in clinical practice and health care is still lacking,” said Peng Li, one of the researchers. “Our team calls for a closer attention to 24-hour sleep patterns — not only nighttime sleep but also a nap — for tracking the health of the elderly.
The researchers recognized that all previous studies on Alzheimer’s disease assessed napping within a participant only once, and most of them were subjective and questionnaire—based. In the new study, more than 1,000 individuals, with an average age of 81, were provided with Actical, a watch-like device, to wear on their wrist for up to 14 days. After nap episodes were identified, the nap duration and frequency were calculated.
The results have suggested that napping too much in daytime may signal an increasing risk of Alzheimer’s, and that faster yearly increase in napping may be a sign of worsening or unfavourable clinical development of the disease.
Researchers have acknowledged that although the method of the new study has been widely used in sleep field studies, they recognize that polysomnography (多导睡眠描记) is the gold standard for sleep scoring. Moreover, the participants studied were the elderly, and therefore, the findings may not be easily translated to young people. In addition, future studies should test whether a direct intervention in a nap can lower the risk of Alzheimer’s.
“We hope to draw more attention to daytime sleep patterns and the importance of patients noting if their sleep schedule changes over time,” said co-senior author Kun Hu of the Medical Biodynamics Program. “Sleep changes are critical in shaping the internal changes in the brain.”
12. What does the new study of the elderly show?
A. The link between a nap and Alzheimer’s. B. The causes and symptoms of Alzheimer’s.
C. The proper amounts of daytime sleep. D. The ways to improve the quality of sleep.
13. How did the researchers conduct the new study?
A. By asking about the participants’ ideas. B. By carrying out a particular questionnaire.
C. By tracking participants’ sleep with a device. D. By assessing participants calculating tasks.
14. What can we infer from Paragraph 5?
A. The method of the new study is perfect. B. The findings are suitable for all ages.
C. Further studies should be carried out. D. Intervention can reduce the risk of Alzheirmer’s.
15. What does Kun Hu talk about?
A. The patterns of daytime sleep. B. The way to make sleep schedules.
C. The causes of brain changes. D. The significance of the new study.

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。
Last Friday, our class held a voluntary tree-planting activity in the city park. Before setting off, our head teacher Ms. Wang reminded us to work well with our partners. I was paired with Leo, a quiet boy who hardly communicated with classmates, always kept to himself and never took part in group activities.
We carried saplings (树苗) and necessary tools to our working spot. While other classmates chatted and worked cheerfully, Leo kept digging the hole silently without a single word. I attempted to start conversations several times, yet he only gave brief replies. Awkward silence hung between us, leaving me at a loss how to connect with him.
Eager to speed up our progress, I held the shovel (锹) tightly and kept digging the hole hurriedly. Unfortunately, I hit my right leg by accident. A sharp wave of pain swept over me at once. I fell onto the grass and could hardly stand up. My face went pale and I could not move my leg. Seeing my situation, Leo froze (僵住) for a second. Then without any hesitation, he put down his shovel quickly and walked straight towards me.
He knelt down beside me, checked my injury gently and helped me move to a smooth stone bench to rest. Having made a quick judgment in his mind, he fetched cold water and the first-aid box to deal with my injury. After all those, he went back to continue digging the hole all by himself silently. Minutes later, I felt better and went to Leo. We worked side by side. As we finished planting the sapling, the warm sunset wrapped us and the tender young tree.
I stared at our newly-planted sapling and turned to look at Leo. To my surprise, I found a soft smile on his face and it was the first time that I had seen him relax completely. A strange thought crossed my mind — Maybe I was wrong about Leo.
