I clearly remember my first day of high school. As I entered the school gate, I was greeted by a crowd of students. The hallways were filled with talking and laughter. It was a lot to handle, and I felt like a tiny fish in a vast ocean. I held my schedule tightly, trying to find the right classroom. My heart raced as I was scared of getting lost. My first class was English, and as I walked in, I spotted familiar faces from my previous school. I breathed a sigh of relief as I took my seat, surrounded by friendly smiles. My English teacher, Mrs Johnson, introduced herself and made everyone feel comfortable. She explained what we would be studying during the semester and encouraged us to share our thoughts and ideas. The next class was math, which happened to be my weakest subject. I had a tight feeling in my stomach as I entered the classroom, but my math teacher, Mr Smith, turned out to be very patient. He promised us that we would learn and improve together. His words of support made me feel more relaxed, and I began to believe that I could overcome my math struggles. During lunchtime, I sat with a group of students who quickly became my friends. We shared stories and talked about our expectations for high school. It was during this time that I realized that high school wasn’t just about academic subjects; it was also about building friendships and making lasting memories. The rest of the day flew by with a variety of classes, faces, and experiences. My first day of high school was filled with moments of anxiety, joy, and the promise of new beginnings. 4.

High school life is much easier than expected. D. High school is about both study and friendship-building. 【答案】4. D 5. C 6. A 7. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者高中第一天的校园经历，包括初入校园的不安、课堂上老师带来的慰藉、午餐时收获友谊，以及作者对高中生活的初步感悟。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据首段中的“As I entered the school gate, I was greeted by a crowd of students. The hallways were filled with talking and laughter. It was a lot to handle, and I felt like a tiny fish in a vast ocean. I held my schedule tightly, trying to find the right classroom. My heart raced as I was scared of getting lost. (当我走进学校大门时，一群学生向我打招呼。走廊里充满了欢声笑语。这让人应接不暇，我感觉自己就像浩瀚海洋里的一条小鱼。我紧紧地攥着课程表，试图找到正确的教室。因为害怕迷路，我的心跳得很快。)”可知，作者是因为面对陌生的校园环境，害怕迷路、难以应对，内心充满对未知环境的恐惧才会有这种感受。故选D。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“My English teacher, Mrs Johnson, introduced herself and made everyone feel comfortable. She explained what we would be studying during the semester and encouraged us to share our thoughts and ideas. (我的英语老师约翰逊夫人做了自我介绍，让每个人都感到很自在。她讲解了我们这学期要学习的内容，并鼓励我们分享自己的想法和观点。)”可知，英语老师约翰逊夫人主动介绍自己，让学生感到自在，还会鼓励学生分享想法，能体现出她富有启发且十分友好。故选C。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The next class was math, which happened to be my weakest subject. I had a tight feeling in my stomach as I entered the classroom. (下一节课是数学，而这恰好是我最薄弱的科目。走进教室时，我心里一阵紧张。)”可知，数学是作者的薄弱学科，进教室时她心里很紧张、焦虑。故选A。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“It was during this time that I realized that high school wasn't just about academic subjects; it was also about building friendships and making lasting memories. (就在这段时间里，我意识到高中不仅仅关乎学术科目，还关乎建立友谊和留下永恒的回忆。)”可知，作者意识到高中生活不只是学习文化课，还包括建立友谊、留存珍贵回忆，即兼顾学习与交友。故选D。 C Picture this: you win three tickets to a sold-out concert and excitedly text your friends to see if they would like to join you. Their reply? “Maybe.” Immediately, your excitement drops, for now you have to wait for their decisions before you can finalize your concert plans. If you’ve experienced something like this, you’re not alone. The “maybe” response to invitations is a common upset in social life. So, what’s going on when people aren’t sure how to refuse an invitation? What leads to this uncertain, awkward behavior? Researchers have found that people prefer saying “maybe” to saying “no” because of something called motivated reasoning (动机性推理), which happens when invitees view information in a biased way to serve their own interests. In other words, receivers of an invitation make themselves believe that inviters want to hear a “maybe” because it helps them keep their choices open. Also, people often imagine that saying “no” will ruin the relationship, completely ignoring the possibility that honesty might be appreciated. However, there are situations where motivated reasoning fails, and people choose to say “no” directly. When invitees put themselves in the inviter’s shoes, they realize that a clear “no” is more helpful. Additionally, if the invitation holds no interest for them at all, they no longer feel the need to leave their options available. While saying “no” can be uncomfortable, being direct and clear is always the best policy. It may limit your choices, but it saves the inviter from uncertainty and helps protect the relationship. Next time a hot concert comes along, your friends will be even more likely to think of you first! 8. Why does the author mention the concert story in Paragraph 1? A. To encourage quick replies. B. To reflect common feelings. C. To introduce a social situation. D. To explain invitees’ motivation. 9. What does the underlined word “biased” mean in Paragraph 3? A. Positive B. Objective C. One-sided D. Reasonable 10. What makes invitees prefer a “no” in certain situations? A. Consideration for the inviter. B. Fear of ruining the relationship. C. Uncertainty about the invitation. D. Wishes to keep their choices open. 11. What is the author’s attitude toward saying “maybe” to an invitation? A. Supportive. B. Unclear. C. Disapproving. D. Indifferent. 【答案】8. C 9. C 10. A 11. C 【解析】 【导语】主要介绍人们面对邀约常回复“maybe”的心理原因，分析直接拒绝的适用情形，倡导社交中清晰坦诚的交流方式。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“If you’ve experienced something like this, you’re not alone. The “maybe” response to invitations is a common upset in social life.(如果你有过类似经历，你并不孤单。面对邀约回复“也许”是社交生活中常见的烦恼。)”可知，作者以音乐会的故事开篇，目的是引出一种普遍的社交现象。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段中的“Researchers have found that people prefer saying “maybe” to saying “no” because of something called motivated reasoning (动机性推理), which happens when invitees view information in a biased way to serve their own interests.(研究人员发现，相较于直接拒绝，人们更倾向于说“也许”。这源于一种叫作动机性推理的心理现象，即被邀约者会带着biased看待信息，以此维护自身利益。)”以及“Also, people often imagine that saying “no” will ruin the relationship, completely ignoring the possibility that honesty might be appreciated.(此外，人们常常认为拒绝会破坏人际关系，却完全忽略了坦诚相待或许会受人认可的可能性。)”可知，人们只为满足自身需求看待问题，看待信息不客观、不全面，由此判断，划线单词biased表示“片面的、偏颇的”，one-sided与之含义相符。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“When invitees put themselves in the inviter’s shoes, they realize that a clear “no” is more helpful.(当受邀者换位思考，站在邀请者的角度考虑时，他们会发现明确拒绝会更合适。)”可知，体谅、顾及邀请人的感受，会让人们选择直接说不。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是最后一段中的“While saying “no” can be uncomfortable, being direct and clear is always the best policy. It may limit your choices, but it saves the inviter from uncertainty and helps protect the relationship.(虽然拒绝他人会让人不适，但坦率直白永远是上策。这或许会限制你的选择，却能让邀约者不再纠结揣测，也有助于维系彼此的关系。)”可知，作者提倡直白明确的回复，不认可敷衍模糊的“maybe”，可推断作者对此持不赞成的态度。 D Wearing noise-cancelling headphones (降噪耳机) to block out distractions has become increasingly common, especially among young people. However, recent studies suggest that the widespread use of these headphones has led to a significant rise in hearing issues. Upon further investigation, it was revealed that the problem is not actually related to the ears but rather results from the brain. This condition, known as Auditory Processing Disorder (APD), occurs when the brain has difficulty in processing sounds or words, distinguishing them from background noise, which makes it difficult for individuals to engage in conversations in social situations or clearly hear instructions at work or school. While APD has historically been linked to childhood brain injury, ear infections, or genetic factors, experts now suggest that the rise in noise-cancelling headphones may be contributing to the condition. Although noise-cancelling headphones can be useful in protecting people from loud noises, experts believe they may untrain the brain’s ability to naturally block out background noise. Claire Benton from the British Academy of Audiology explained that by blocking everyday sounds like train noise or traffic, the brain might “forget” how to filter out distractions. It’s similar to relying too often on a crutch (拐杖) — just as leg muscles weaken from lack of use, constant use of noise-cancelling headphones may create an artificial environment, where the brain no longer practices filtering out distractions, making it harder to function naturally. “Those complex, high-level listening skills in your brain don’t fully develop until your late teens. If you have only been wearing noise-cancelling headphones during this crucial period, you may be slightly delaying your ability to process speech and noise,” explained Claire Benton. “Therefore, using them in moderation and occasionally exposing yourself to natural environments can help maintain the brain’s auditory processing abilities. The key lies in balance — protecting your hearing from harmful noises while still giving your brain opportunities to exercise its natural filtering abilities.” 12. What do recent studies find about noise-cancelling headphones? A. They are popular among young people. B. They can lead to serious hearing damage. C. They are more harmful than regular headphones. D. They can weaken the brain’s ability to process sound. 13. How do people with APD typically behave? A. They become intolerant of loud noises. B. They constantly hear sounds in their ears. C. They get easily distracted by background noises. D. They struggle to distinguish sounds in noisy environments. 14. Why does the author mention “crutch” in paragraph 3? A. To stress the risks of overusing noise-cancelling headphones. B. To show the necessity of blocking out loud noises in daily life. C. To state the reasons for inventing noise-cancelling headphones. D. To explain the working principle of noise-cancelling headphones. 15. What does Claire Benton want to tell us in the last paragraph? A. High-level listening skills are crucial for personal growth. B. Noise-cancelling headphones bring long-lasting threat to people. C. We should avoid relying too much on noise-cancelling headphones. D. Natural background noise has a negative impact on brain development. 【答案】12. D 13. D 14. A 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了降噪耳机在年轻人中越来越普遍，但近期研究表明其广泛使用导致了听力问题的显著增加，且问题根源在于大脑，可能引发听觉处理障碍（APD）。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段 “However, recent studies suggest that the widespread use of these headphones has led to a significant rise in hearing issues. Upon further investigation, it was revealed that the problem is not actually related to the ears but rather results from the brain.(然而，最近的研究表明，这些耳机的广泛使用导致了听力问题的显著增加。进一步调查发现，问题实际上与耳朵无关，而是由大脑导致的)”以及第三段 “experts believe they may untrain the brain’s ability to naturally block out background noise.(专家认为，它们可能会削弱大脑自然屏蔽背景噪音的能力)”可知，降噪耳机可能会削弱大脑处理声音的能力。故选D。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“This condition, known as Auditory Processing Disorder (APD), occurs when the brain has difficulty in processing sounds or words, distinguishing them from background noise, which makes it difficult for individuals to engage in conversations in social situations or clearly hear instructions at work or school.(这种情况被称为听觉处理障碍（APD），当大脑在处理声音或单词时遇到困难，难以将它们与背景噪音区分开来时就会发生，这使得个人在社交场合中难以进行对话，或者在工作或学校中难以清晰地听到指令)”可知，患有APD的人在嘈杂环境中很难区分声音。故选D。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段 “Claire Benton from the British Academy of Audiology explained that by blocking everyday sounds like train noise or traffic, the brain might “forget” how to filter out distractions. It’s similar to relying too often on a crutch (拐杖) — just as leg muscles weaken from lack of use, constant use of noise-cancelling headphones may create an artificial environment, where the brain no longer practices filtering out distractions, making it harder to function naturally.(英国听力学学会的克莱尔・本顿解释说，通过屏蔽火车噪音或交通等日常声音，大脑可能会 “忘记” 如何过滤掉干扰。这就类似于过度依赖拐杖——就像腿部肌肉因缺乏使用而变弱一样，持续使用降噪耳机可能会创造一个人为的环境，在这个环境中，大脑不再练习过滤干扰，使其更难自然地发挥功能)”可推知，通过类比“拐杖”说明过度依赖降噪耳机会使大脑失去自然过滤噪音的能力，强调过度使用降噪耳机的风险。故选A。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段 “Therefore, using them in moderation and occasionally exposing yourself to natural environments can help maintain the brain’s auditory processing abilities. The key lies in balance — protecting your hearing from harmful noises while still giving your brain opportunities to exercise its natural filtering abilities.(因此，适度使用它们并偶尔让自己暴露在自然环境中有助于保持大脑的听觉处理能力。关键在于平衡——在保护听力免受有害噪音影响的同时，仍然让大脑有机会锻炼其自然过滤能力)”可推知，克莱尔・本顿想告诉我们应该避免过度依赖降噪耳机。故选C。 第二节（共5小题，每小题2.5分，共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。 Ways of Studying and Learning Efficiently Choose a quiet place to study without distractions.

D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了害羞内向、难以交友的女孩Alice，在一次班级组织的国家公园旅行中，通过小组活动与友善的Jessica结对，逐渐打开心扉、建立友谊的故事。 【21题详解】 考查名词词义辨析。句意：一天，她的老师宣布班级要去国家公园旅行。A. mother 妈妈；B. father 爸爸；C. teacher 老师；D. cousin 堂兄/妹。根据后文“the class would be going on a trip”（班级要去旅行）和“The teacher asked the students to team up”（老师让学生分组）可知，组织班级旅行的是老师，故选C项。 【22题详解】 考查形容词词义辨析。句意：每个人都很兴奋，但Alice感到紧张。A. nervous 紧张的；B. puzzled 困惑的；C. frightened 害怕的；D. awkward 尴尬的。根据前文“Alice was a shy girl who found it difficult to make friends”（Alice 是个害羞的女孩，很难交到朋友）和后文“She worried that she would be left out”（她担心自己会被冷落）可知，Alice 因担心被孤立而感到紧张，故选A项。 【23题详解】 考查动词短语辨析。句意：她担心自己会被冷落，无法融入同学之中。A. get in 进入；B. move in 搬进；C. fit in 融入；D. come along 出现，进展。根据前文“found it difficult to make friends”（很难交到朋友）和“be left out”（被冷落）可知，Alice 的核心困扰是无法融入集体，“fit in with sb.”为固定搭配，意为“与某人相处融洽、融入某人之中”，符合题意，故选C项。 【24题详解】 考查副词词义辨析。句意：旅行那天，Alice起初有些犹豫，但最终还是决定去。A. gradually 逐渐地；B. finally 最终；C. suddenly 突然；D. slowly 慢慢地。根据前文“held back at first”（起初退缩）和后文“decided to go”（决定去）可知，前后是转折关系，强调“经过犹豫后最终做出决定”，“finally”符合逻辑，故选B项。 【25题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：他们到达公园时，每个人都很兴奋，Alice努力隐藏自己的恐惧。A. show 展示；B. hide 隐藏；C. express 表达；D. discuss 讨论。根据前文“Alice felt ____ ”和 “tried to”（努力去做）可知前文说到Alice感到紧张，所以Alice不想让别人看出自己的恐惧，试图隐藏这种情绪，故选B项。 【26题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：Alice被和一个叫Jessica的女孩结对，Jessica友好又乐于助人。A. joined 加入；B. attended 参加；C. paired 结对；D. compared 比较。根据前文“The teacher asked the students to team up”（老师让学生分组）可知，此处指 “两人结对分组”，“be paired with sb.”为固定搭配，意为“与某人结对”，符合语境，故选C项。 【27题详解】 考查名词词义辨析。句意：活动中，Jessica注意到找到正确的植物对Alice来说是个挑战。A. pleasure 乐趣；B. comfort 安慰；C. worry 担忧；D. challenge 挑战。根据后文“She offered to help”（她主动提供帮助）可知，Alice在找植物这件事上遇到了困难，即“挑战”，故选D项。 【28题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：Alice在她们合作时感到很开心，甚至一起笑了起来。A. shared 分享；B. offered 提供；C. drew 吸引；D. took 拿。根据前文“they worked together”（她们一起合作）和“felt happy”（感到开心）可知，两人在合作中分享快乐，“shared a few laughs” 意为“一起笑、分享笑声”，符合语境，故选A项。 【29题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：一天结束时，Alice意识到自己交了一个新朋友。A. thought 认为；B. showed 展示；C. supposed 假设；D. realized 意识到。根据前 “Slowly, she opened up and began to feel comfortable in Jessica’s company.”（慢慢地，她打开了心扉，在Jessica身边开始感到自在。）可知，Alice 从“紧张、隐藏恐惧”到“感到自在、开心”，最终“意识到”自己收获了友谊，“realized”更能体现“从无意识到有意识”的过程，故选D项。 【30题详解】 考查形容词词义辨析。句意：这次经历让她更加自信。A. curious 好奇的；B. confident 自信的；C. fluent 流利的；D. content 满足的。根据后文“Her shy nature was slowly lost, replaced by a growing sense of confidence.”（她害羞的本性慢慢消失了，取而代之的是日益增强的自信心。）可知，此处对应“confidence”，应填“confident”（自信的），故选B项。 【31题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：她明白了做自己就好，别人也会接受她本来的样子。A. accept 接受；B. receive 收到；C. stand 忍受；D. allow 允许。根据前文“she opened up and began to feel comfortable in Jessica’s company.”（她打开了心扉，在Jessica身边开始感到自在。）可知，Jessica的友好让Alice感受到被接纳，所以她意识到“别人会接受真实的她”，“accept”强调 “主观上接纳”，符合语境；“receive”仅表示“客观收到”，不符合题意，故选A项。 【32题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：这次旅行改变了她对友谊的看法，让她明白只要尝试，她就能和别人建立联系。A. succeed 成功；B. fight 打架；C. connect 建立联系；D. hike 徒步旅行。根据前文“found it difficult to make friends”（很难交到朋友）和“made a new friend”（交了一个新朋友）可知，Alice的核心转变是“从无法交友到建立友谊”，即“与他人建立联系”，“connect with sb.”意为“与某人建立联系”，符合题意，故选C项。 【33题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：回到学校后，Alice开始在课堂上更多地发言，甚至计划邀请同学一起学习。A. refused 拒绝；B. planned 计划；C. agreed 同意；D. competed 竞争。根据前文“This experience made her more ____ ”可知旅行的经历让Alice更加自信，再结合“speak up more in class”（在课堂上更多地发言），可知Alice 变得主动，空前的even表示递进关系，“计划邀请同学”是主动社交的体现，“planned to do sth.”意为“计划做某事”，符合语境，故选B项。 【34题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：她和别人交流得越多，就越享受这个过程。A. walked 走路；B. studied 学习；C. communicated 交流；D. played 玩耍。根据前文“speak up more in class”（在课堂上更多地发言）和“invite her classmates to study together”（邀请同学一起学习）可知，这些都是“与他人交流”的行为，且“communicate with sb.”意为“与某人交流”，符合“从害羞到主动社交”的转变逻辑，故选C项。 【35题详解】 考查名词和形容词词义辨析。句意：她很感激这次旅行，把她推出了舒适区。A. difficult 困难的；B. trouble 麻烦；C. typical 典型的；D. comfort 舒适。结合前文可知Alice原本“害羞、宅家、难以交友”的状态，旅行让她变得自信，愿意和别人建立联系，所以是突破了原本的舒适区，“comfort zone”为固定短语，意为 “舒适区”，符合语境，故选D项。 第II卷（满分55分） 第四部分 语法填空（共20小题，每小题1.5分，满分30分） 第一节 语篇语法填空（共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 Traveling is a wonderful activity.

As I entered the school gate, I was greeted by a crowd of students. The hallways were filled with talking and laughter. It was a lot to handle, and I felt like a tiny fish in a vast ocean. I held my schedule tightly, trying to find the right classroom. My heart raced as I was scared of getting lost. My first class was English, and as I walked in, I spotted familiar faces from my previous school. I breathed a sigh of relief as I took my seat, surrounded by friendly smiles. My English teacher, Mrs Johnson, introduced herself and made everyone feel comfortable. She explained what we would be studying during the semester and encouraged us to share our thoughts and ideas. The next class was math, which happened to be my weakest subject. I had a tight feeling in my stomach as I entered the classroom, but my math teacher, Mr Smith, turned out to be very patient. He promised us that we would learn and improve together. His words of support made me feel more relaxed, and I began to believe that I could overcome my math struggles. During lunchtime, I sat with a group of students who quickly became my friends. We shared stories and talked about our expectations for high school. It was during this time that I realized that high school wasn’t just about academic subjects; it was also about building friendships and making lasting memories. The rest of the day flew by with a variety of classes, faces, and experiences. My first day of high school was filled with moments of anxiety, joy, and the promise of new beginnings. 4. Why did the author feel like a tiny fish in a vast ocean at first? A. Because of excitement and curiosity. B. Because of the school’s welcoming atmosphere. C. Because of good preparations for the new school. D. Because of fear of the unfamiliar environment. 5. Which words can best describe the English teacher? A. Generous and powerful. B. Responsible and patient. C. Inspiring and friendly. D. Outgoing and warm-hearted. 6. How did the author feel when entering the math class? A. Anxious. B. Excited. C. Relaxed. D. Confident. 7. What did the author learn from the first day of high school? A. High school is only about studying hard. B. Making friends is more important than studying. C. High school life is much easier than expected. D. High school is about both study and friendship-building. C Picture this: you win three tickets to a sold-out concert and excitedly text your friends to see if they would like to join you. Their reply? “Maybe.” Immediately, your excitement drops, for now you have to wait for their decisions before you can finalize your concert plans. If you’ve experienced something like this, you’re not alone. The “maybe” response to invitations is a common upset in social life. So, what’s going on when people aren’t sure how to refuse an invitation? What leads to this uncertain, awkward behavior? Researchers have found that people prefer saying “maybe” to saying “no” because of something called motivated reasoning (动机性推理), which happens when invitees view information in a biased way to serve their own interests. In other words, receivers of an invitation make themselves believe that inviters want to hear a “maybe” because it helps them keep their choices open. Also, people often imagine that saying “no” will ruin the relationship, completely ignoring the possibility that honesty might be appreciated. However, there are situations where motivated reasoning fails, and people choose to say “no” directly. When invitees put themselves in the inviter’s shoes, they realize that a clear “no” is more helpful. Additionally, if the invitation holds no interest for them at all, they no longer feel the need to leave their options available. While saying “no” can be uncomfortable, being direct and clear is always the best policy. It may limit your choices, but it saves the inviter from uncertainty and helps protect the relationship. Next time a hot concert comes along, your friends will be even more likely to think of you first! 8. Why does the author mention the concert story in Paragraph 1? A. To encourage quick replies. B. To reflect common feelings. C. To introduce a social situation. D. To explain invitees’ motivation. 9. What does the underlined word “biased” mean in Paragraph 3? A. Positive B. Objective C. One-sided D. Reasonable 10. What makes invitees prefer a “no” in certain situations? A. Consideration for the inviter. B. Fear of ruining the relationship. C. Uncertainty about the invitation. D. Wishes to keep their choices open. 11. What is the author’s attitude toward saying “maybe” to an invitation? A. Supportive. B. Unclear. C. Disapproving. D. Indifferent. D Wearing noise-cancelling headphones (降噪耳机) to block out distractions has become increasingly common, especially among young people. However, recent studies suggest that the widespread use of these headphones has led to a significant rise in hearing issues. Upon further investigation, it was revealed that the problem is not actually related to the ears but rather results from the brain. This condition, known as Auditory Processing Disorder (APD), occurs when the brain has difficulty in processing sounds or words, distinguishing them from background noise, which makes it difficult for individuals to engage in conversations in social situations or clearly hear instructions at work or school. While APD has historically been linked to childhood brain injury, ear infections, or genetic factors, experts now suggest that the rise in noise-cancelling headphones may be contributing to the condition. Although noise-cancelling headphones can be useful in protecting people from loud noises, experts believe they may untrain the brain’s ability to naturally block out background noise. Claire Benton from the British Academy of Audiology explained that by blocking everyday sounds like train noise or traffic, the brain might “forget” how to filter out distractions. It’s similar to relying too often on a crutch (拐杖) — just as leg muscles weaken from lack of use, constant use of noise-cancelling headphones may create an artificial environment, where the brain no longer practices filtering out distractions, making it harder to function naturally. “Those complex, high-level listening skills in your brain don’t fully develop until your late teens. If you have only been wearing noise-cancelling headphones during this crucial period, you may be slightly delaying your ability to process speech and noise,” explained Claire Benton. “Therefore, using them in moderation and occasionally exposing yourself to natural environments can help maintain the brain’s auditory processing abilities. The key lies in balance — protecting your hearing from harmful noises while still giving your brain opportunities to exercise its natural filtering abilities.” 12. What do recent studies find about noise-cancelling headphones? A. They are popular among young people. B. They can lead to serious hearing damage. C. They are more harmful than regular headphones. D. They can weaken the brain’s ability to process sound. 13. How do people with APD typically behave? A. They become intolerant of loud noises. B. They constantly hear sounds in their ears. C. They get easily distracted by background noises. D. They struggle to distinguish sounds in noisy environments. 14. Why does the author mention “crutch” in paragraph 3? A. To stress the risks of overusing noise-cancelling headphones. B. To show the necessity of blocking out loud noises in daily life. C. To state the reasons for inventing noise-cancelling headphones. D.
