Passage 1
On September 9, Apple entered the foldable phone market with the iPhone Duo, its first folding phone. For a company whose every move leads the industry, this was no small event. 1
Huawei had in fact moved before Apple. Two days before the Apple event, it unveiled its second tri-fold flagship, the Mate XT2, putting it on sale before the iPhone Duo could even be pre-ordered. 2 The message to consumers was plain: Huawei had no intention of giving up its ground.
Huawei’s confidence rests on hard numbers. In the first half of 2026, it held roughly two-thirds of China’s foldable market. 3 No other company came close.
4 In evaluating the iPhone Duo, Huawei sees more opportunity than threat. Many analysts agree: Apple’s entry has finally made the foldable form impossible to doubt, and the company best placed to profit from a bigger market is the one that already leads it. Production targets for Huawei’s foldable lines are said to be rising for the second half of the year.
Rather than narrowing its defense, Huawei is widening it. Beyond the tri-fold Mate XT2, it is reportedly developing another book-style foldable with a 7.6-inch main screen, one that looks much like the iPhone Duo on paper. 5 All of these devices run on Huawei’s own Kirin chips and HarmonyOS — a sign that the battle for the future of folding phones has only begun.
A.Many buyers, however, say they would rather wait for a second generation.
B.This second model is expected to appear within months, giving Huawei an Apple-style answer of its own.
C.Huawei first entered the foldable market in 2019 with its original Mate X.
D.That confidence, however, tells only half the story.
E.This early strike was carefully timed to seize the spotlight before Apple could own it.
F.Yet the louder answer to it would come from its strongest challenger in China, Huawei.
G.Such dominance took years of patient work to build.
【答案】1.F 2.E 3.G 4.D 5.B
【导语】文章主要介绍苹果推出首款折叠手机iPhone Duo,华为抢先发布三折叠机型,二者在折叠屏市场展开竞争。
1.根据上文提供的信息“On September 9, Apple entered the foldable phone market with the iPhone Duo, its first folding phone. For a company whose every move leads the industry, this was no small event.(9月9日,苹果凭借iPhone Duo进入折叠手机市场,这是它的首款折叠手机。对于一家一举一动都引领行业的公司来说,这可不是小事)”可知,上文提出苹果发布折叠手机这一行业大事件,后文段落转而介绍华为的抢先动作,空格需要过渡句引出华为。F选项“Yet the louder answer to it would come from its strongest challenger in China, Huawei.(然而,对此更响亮的回应来自它在中国最强劲的对手,华为)”中的代词it指代苹果发布折叠手机这件事,句子起到承上启下的作用,自然引出下文华为的举措。
2.根据上文提供的信息“Huawei had in fact moved before Apple. Two days before the Apple event, it unveiled its second tri-fold flagship, the Mate XT2, putting it on sale before the iPhone Duo could even be pre-ordered.(事实上华为行动早于苹果。苹果发布会前两天,它发布第二款三折叠旗舰Mate XT2,在iPhone Duo开启预售前就开售)”可知,上文描述华为抢在苹果之前发布新机,空格需要对该行为进行总结评价。E选项“This early strike was carefully timed to seize the spotlight before Apple could own it.(这次抢先出击精心选好了时机,意在在苹果抢占关注度之前夺得焦点)”中的This early strike指代华为抢先发布新机的行为,对上文事件进行解读,衔接后文华为不愿让出市场的态度。
3.根据上文提供的信息“In the first half of 2026, it held roughly two-thirds of China’s foldable market.(2026年上半年,它占据中国折叠屏市场大约三分之二的份额)”以及下文“No other company came close.(没有其他公司能望其项背)”可知,上文给出华为超高市场份额的数据,下文强调无人能及。空格承接这个市场优势,说明这种优势不是凭空得来。G选项“Such dominance took years of patient work to build.(这样的主导地位是历经多年潜心经营才建立起来的)”中的Such dominance指代上文三分之二的市场占有率,衔接前后两句。
4.根据上文提供的信息“Huawei’s confidence rests on hard numbers.(华为的信心建立在实打实的数据之上)”以及下文“In evaluating the iPhone Duo, Huawei sees more opportunity than threat.(在评估iPhone Duo时,华为看到的更多是机遇而非威胁)”可知,上文讲华为基于数据充满信心,下文转换视角,讨论苹果入局带来的市场机遇,存在语义转折。D选项“That confidence, however, tells only half the story.(然而,这份信心只说明了一半情况)”中的That confidence指代上文中华为依托市场数据产生的信心,通过转折开启新一层论述。
5.根据上文提供的信息“Beyond the tri-fold Mate XT2, it is reportedly developing another book-style foldable with a 7.6-inch main screen, one that looks much like the iPhone Duo on paper.(除三折叠Mate XT2之外,据报道它正在研发另一款横向折叠手机,主屏7.6英寸,理论外观很像iPhone Duo)”可知,上文介绍华为正在研发一款新折叠机型,空格继续介绍这款新机。B选项“This second model is expected to appear within months, giving Huawei an Apple-style answer of its own.(这第二款机型预计几个月内亮相,让华为拥有属于自己的对标苹果的产品)”中的This second model指代上文提到的正在研发的横向折叠新机,承接上文新机信息,引出后面全部设备搭载麒麟芯片和鸿蒙系统的内容。
Passage 2
How to Refuse Others Properly as a High School Student
As a high school student, you value friendship and hope to get along well with people around you. 1 Unwilling acceptance often makes you buried in extra work and slows down your own progress. Learning to say no appropriately is a necessary social skill for you.
Distinguish between reasonable requests and improper ones. True friends will respect your heavy study pressure. If a friend wants you to give up your reviewing time for unimportant entertainment activities, this is a request you should politely refuse. 2
Choose suitable ways to express your refusal. 3 You can state your real difficulty honestly instead of making up complex lies. For example, you can explain that you have to finish a lot of reviewing work before the coming exam. Meanwhile, you can offer limited help within your ability when possible. This shows you care about others though you cannot satisfy their full demands.
4 Some classmates may try to persuade you again to change your mind. If you give in because of peer pressure, you will fall into the same trouble once more. Keep your attitude polite and steady. Good relationships will not break just because of your reasonable refusal.
Understand that saying no is not an act of selfishness. 5 When you refuse wisely, you protect your limited time and energy from being drained unnecessarily. This, in turn, helps you maintain emotional stability and sustain a high level of focus in your studies. Gradually, you will strike a good balance between keeping social contacts and protecting your own needs.
A.It is an act of self-respect.
B.Put yourself in your friend’s shoes.
C.Stick to your decision firmly after you refuse.
D.You don’t have to give in to unreasonable requests.
E.Direct and cold rejection may hurt personal relationships.
F.Respecting others marks the first step of social interaction.
G.You may find it hard to turn down requests from classmates.
【答案】1.G 2.D 3.E 4.C 5.A
【导语】文章主要讲述高中生恰当拒绝他人的实用社交方法。
1.上文“As a high school student, you value friendship and hope to get along well with people around you. (作为一名高中生,你珍视友谊,希望和身边的人相处融洽。)”点明高中生重视人际关系的特点,下文“Unwilling acceptance often makes you buried in extra work and slows down your own progress. (不情愿的接受往往会让你陷入额外的工作,拖慢自己的进度。)”说明勉强答应他人请求的负面影响。空处应承上启下,承接高中生的社交困境,引出下文“学会恰当拒绝”的主题。G选项“你可能发现很难拒绝同学的请求。”中的“find it hard to turn down requests”与上文“value friendship”形成逻辑呼应,也为下文“Unwilling acceptance”的后果做铺垫。
2.上文“Distinguish between reasonable requests and improper ones. True friends will respect your heavy study pressure. If a friend wants you to give up your reviewing time for unimportant entertainment activities, this is a request you should politely refuse. (区分合理请求与不当请求。真正的朋友会尊重你繁重的学业压力。如果一个朋友想让你为了不重要的娱乐活动而放弃复习时间,这就是你应该礼貌拒绝的请求。)”举例说明要学会拒绝不合理的请求,本段核心是区分合理与不当请求。空处应承接上文的拒绝场景,给出明确的行动指引。D选项“你不必屈服于不合理的请求。”中的“unreasonable requests”与上文“improper ones”相呼应,对上文例子进行总结,完成该段的逻辑闭环。
3.上文“Choose suitable ways to express your refusal. (选择合适的方式表达你的拒绝。)”点明本段核心是拒绝的表达方式,下文“You can state your real difficulty honestly instead of making up complex lies. (你可以坦诚说出自己真正的难处,而不要编造复杂的谎言。)”给出了温和拒绝的具体做法。空处应引出不当拒绝方式的弊端,反衬下文正确做法的合理性。E选项“直接生硬的拒绝可能会伤害人际关系。”中的“Direct and cold rejection”与下文“honestly state your real difficulty”形成正反对比,逻辑衔接紧密。
4.下文“Some classmates may try to persuade you again to change your mind. If you give in because of peer pressure, you will fall into the same trouble once more. Keep your attitude polite and steady. (一些同学可能会再次劝说你改变主意。如果你因为同伴压力而让步,你会再次陷入同样的麻烦。保持礼貌而坚定的态度。)”说明拒绝他人后可能面临的反复劝说场景,强调不能轻易动摇。空处作为本段主题句,应概括本段核心行为要求。C选项“拒绝后要坚定地坚持自己的决定。”中的“Stick to your decision firmly”与下文“keep your attitude polite and steady”形成内容呼应,统领全段。
5.上文“Understand that saying no is not an act of selfishness. (要明白说“不”不是一种自私的行为。)”纠正了对拒绝的错误认知,下文“When you refuse wisely, you protect your limited time and energy from being drained unnecessarily. (当你明智地拒绝时,你能保护自己有限的时间和精力不被不必要地消耗。)”说明拒绝的正向意义。空处应承接上文否定“自私”的表述,给出对拒绝行为的正向定义。A选项“这是一种自重的行为。”中的“act of self-respect”与上文“not an act of selfishness”形成语义转折衔接,契合段落逻辑。
Passage 3
Many people believe that curiosity is a natural gift, something you either have or don’t. 1 Curiosity, researchers argue, is more like a muscle that can be strengthened with regular exercise. Unfortunately, as we grow older, most of us lose our appetite for new questions.
One reason is that formal education often rewards answers rather than questions. At school, students are praised when they supply the “right” solution. 2 Over time, they learn to avoid asking questions that might reveal gaps in their knowledge. The fear of appearing ignorant gradually kills their natural curiosity.
3 When we meet something unexpected, our brains enter a state of mild alarm. We feel discomfort because our existing mental models cannot explain what we are seeing. Many people’s first reaction is to turn away, to dismiss the strange observation as a mistake. Curious people, however, treat that uneasy feeling not as a threat but as an invitation.
This does not mean curious individuals are endlessly seeking random bits of unimportant information. 4 It is focused, driven by a desire to fill specific gaps in their understanding. A curious physicist does not want to know every fact about every star, but to resolve a particular puzzle about how stars evolve.
5 It requires actively noticing what you do not know, tolerating the discomfort of unresolved puzzles, and choosing to chase answers instead of ignoring uncertainty. Anyone can build this skill, if they are willing to practise.
A.They are taught that uncertainty equals failure.
B.True curiosity is not aimless collection of facts.
C.Curiosity involves a special reaction to surprise.
D.Curiosity is therefore separate from intelligence.
E.But this popular view does not hold up under research.
F.Becoming more curious takes consistent, deliberate effort.
G.Teachers seldom encourage students to challenge textbook statements.
【答案】1.E 2.A 3.C 4.B 5.F
【导语】文章说明好奇心可通过后天刻意练习培养,分析成年后好奇心消退的原因,阐述真正好奇心的特质,呼吁人们主动锻炼提升好奇心。
1.根据上文“Many people believe that curiosity is a natural gift, something you either have or don’t. (很多人认为好奇心是一种天赋,要么天生拥有,要么完全没有。)”和下文“Curiosity, researchers argue, is more like a muscle that can be strengthened with regular exercise. (研究人员提出,好奇心更像一块肌肉,通过规律锻炼就能得到增强。)”可知,上文提出大众观点“好奇心是天赋,有或没有”;下文给出研究人员相反观点“好奇心可以后天锻炼”。E选项“但这种流行观点经不起研究的检验。”起到转折作用,承接旧观点,引出研究的新看法。
2.根据上文“At school, students are praised when they supply the “right” solution. (在学校里,学生给出“正确”解法就会受到表扬。)”和下文“Over time, they learn to avoid asking questions that might reveal gaps in their knowledge. (久而久之,他们学会了回避那些可能暴露自身知识缺口的问题。)”可知,正规教育奖励答案,不鼓励提问。学校只表扬给出正确答案的学生。A 选项“他们被灌输:不确定就等同于失败。”解释学生不敢提问的根源。因为害怕暴露知识漏洞、害怕“不确定”,所以回避提问。
3.空处为段落主题句。根据下文“When we meet something unexpected, our brains enter a state of mild alarm. We feel discomfort because our existing mental models cannot explain what we are seeing. Many people’s first reaction is to turn away, to dismiss the strange observation as a mistake. Curious people, however, treat that uneasy feeling not as a threat but as an invitation. ( 当我们遇到意料之外的事物时,大脑会进入轻度警觉状态。我们会感到不适,因为现有的思维模式无法解释眼前所见。很多人的第一反应是回避,把陌生的现象当作错误而忽略。但拥有好奇心的人,不会把这种不安感视作威胁,而是当作一次探索的邀约。)”可知,整段描述人遇到意外事物时大脑的两种不同反应。C选项“好奇心包含面对意外时的特殊反应。”总领全段,完美概括下文内容。
4.根据上文“This does not mean curious individuals are endlessly seeking random bits of unimportant information. (这并不意味着充满好奇心的人会无休止地搜罗无关紧要的零散信息。)”和下文“It is focused, driven by a desire to fill specific gaps in their understanding. (它是有明确指向的,由填补自身认知中特定缺口的渴望所驱动。)”可知,上文否定好奇心是漫无目的收集零散信息的误解,下文说明真正的好奇心是有明确目标的。B选项“真正的好奇心不是漫无目的地收集事实。”符合语境。
5.下文“It requires actively noticing what you do not know, tolerating the discomfort of unresolved puzzles, and choosing to chase answers instead of ignoring uncertainty. (它要求你主动留意自己的未知领域,容忍未解谜题带来的不适感,选择追寻答案而非无视不确定性。)” 详细列举培养好奇心需要付出的具体行动,F选项“培养更强的好奇心需要持续、刻意的努力。” 作为本段总起句,点明提升好奇心需要持续刻意的努力。
Passage 4
Meetings are a key way to get yourself noticed. When you “hold your own” in a meeting, you want to show that you’re confident, and this can mark you out as a future leader. 1 . If you don’t express your ideas, no matter how great they are, they’re useless to you, your team and your organization. Here is the guide to getting your voice heard at meetings.
Come prepared. Have some talking points planned out before you express your idea. Practice with a trusted colleague who can help you iron out any problems. Imagine the possible reactions people might have to your idea. 2 . What are some questions that might come up in response to your idea? How will you answer those questions?
Get to the point. Engage people in with the main points of the idea, then dive into the details. When you start strong you’ll give them a reason to continue listening. 3 . People are overwhelmed with numerous things to do at work. While the eight second attention span may be a myth, people certainly appreciate brevity (简短) now more than ever.
4 . People lose interest when they’re listening to a long talk. Invite them to be a part of your idea. Organize your argument in a way that makes them want to ask questions and learn more. When you give them time to ask questions, they’ll be more interested, attentive, and engaged. The more you can engage them, the more they’ll truly listen.
Have confidence in yourself. The more you believe in yourself, the more that shows through when you express an idea. People can hear the confidence in your voice when you speak and see it in your body language. If you allow yourself to think that you’re nervous, you’ll convince yourself to be. Fight nerves by taking a few moments to stand in a power pose. 5 .
A.Time is precious.
B.Make it a conversation.
C.Speak with elegance and intention.
D.However, being confident is not enough.
E.This simple body trick can increase your confidence.
F.Look at it from as many other perspectives as possible.
G.This is how you show value and make a positive impression.
【答案】1.D 2.F 3.A 4.B 5.E
【导语】文章主要讲述了如何在会议中有效表达自己的观点,从而获得他人的注意和认可。文章提供了四个具体的建议,包括充分准备、直奔主题、互动交流以及保持自信。
1.根据上文“Meetings are a key way to get yourself noticed. When you “hold your own” in a meeting, you want to show that you’re confident, and this can mark you out as a future leader.(会议是让自己脱颖而出的重要途径。当你在会议中坚守自身立场时,你想要展现出自己的自信,而这会让你被认定为未来的领导者)”以及后文“If you don’t express your ideas, no matter how great they are, they’re useless to you, your team and your organization. Here is the guide to getting your voice heard at meetings.(如果你不表达自己的想法,无论这些想法多么出色,对你、你的团队和组织来说都是毫无用处的。以下是让你在会议中被听见的指南)”可知,前文提到在会议中展现自信能让你被视为未来领导者,后文指出不表达想法再好的想法也没用,为转折关系,D项“然而,仅有自信是不够的”承上启下,衔接自然。
2.前文“Imagine the possible reactions people might have to your idea.(想象一下人们对你的想法可能会有的反应)”建议预想他人对你想法的反应,后文“What are some questions that might come up in response to your idea? How will you answer those questions?(针对你的想法,可能会提出哪些问题?你将如何回答这些问题?)”进一步说明要从不同的角度思考可能的问题。由此可知,空处应强调从多角度思考问题。F项“尽可能从其他角度看待它”符合语境。
3.前文“Get to the point. Engage people in with the main points of the idea, then dive into the details. When you start strong you’ll give them a reason to continue listening.(直奔主题用核心观点吸引听众,再深入细节。强有力的开场能让他们有理由继续倾听)”强调要简洁明了地表达观点,后文“People are overwhelmed with numerous things to do at work. While the eight second attention span may be a myth, people certainly appreciate brevity (简短) now more than ever.(人们在工作中面临大量任务,感到不堪重负。尽管八秒注意力持续时间的说法可能只是个传说,但如今人们对简洁的重视程度比以往任何时候都更高)”说明现代人时间有限,更看重简短表达。由此可知,空处应点明时间的重要性。A项“时间很宝贵”符合语境。
4.后文“People lose interest when they’re listening to a long talk. Invite them to be a part of your idea. Organize your argument in a way that makes them want to ask questions and learn more.(冗长的发言会让人失去兴趣。邀请他人参与你的想法,用激发提问的方式组织论述)”指出长篇大论会让人失去兴趣,建议通过互动提升参与感。由此可知,空处应提出将表达转化为对话。B项“让它成为一场对话”符合语境。
5.前文“Fight nerves by taking a few moments to stand in a power pose.(用能量姿势站立片刻来对抗紧张)”提到用“能量姿势”缓解紧张,空处应需补充这一行为的作用。E项“这个简单的身体小技巧可以提升你的自信心”说明其效果,符合语境。
Passage 5
At 5 am, social media fills with proof that the early risers have already won the day. This is the routine that separates high performers from everyone else, reinforced by high-profile early risers such as Apple CEO Tim Cook, entrepreneur Richard Branson and so on. The message is simple: wake earlier, perform better. 1 For many people, a 5 am routine fights with their biology and can weaken both health and productivity. Much depends on your individual biological rhythm, or “chronotype”.
Chronotypes reflect when people naturally feel alert or sleepy, and genetics play a major role in shaping them. Research shows that sleep timing is partly rooted in our genes, and chronotype is heritable. 2 Adolescents tend toward later sleep patterns and older adults often get up earlier.
Studies often find differences between chronotypes. Morning types tend to report better academic outcomes. They are also less likely to report drug abuse and more likely to exercise regularly. Evening types, on average, show higher rates of burnout and are more likely to report poorer mental and physical health.
A common belief is that adopting an early routine will deliver the same benefits seen in natural morning types. 3 They are shaped by genetics and circadian (生理节奏的) biology. For many evening or intermediate types, waking earlier than their natural rhythm can lead to sleep debt, reduced concentration, and poorer mood over time.
4 It is when people’s daily schedules are in line with their biological rhythms that they tend to perform best. Morning-oriented people often thrive in systems structured around early starts, while evening types may struggle not because they are less capable, but because their peak alertness occurs later.
Early-rising experiments can feel effective at first. It often reflects motivation and attention rather than lasting biological change, similar to what happens after life changes such as starting a new job. 5
A.It also shifts across the whole life.
B.But it is a more complicated story.
C.However, chronotypes are not easily changed.
D.Morning types have an advantage in their careers.
E.A key point is that early rising itself does not create success.
F.The patterns reinforce how chronotype shapes daily behaviour.
G.With routines stabilising, the initial boost can become harder to last.
【答案】1.B 2.A 3.C 4.E 5.G
【导语】文章通过分析科学研究,探讨了早起是否真的能带来成功,指出生物节律 (chronotype)才是关键因素,早起本身并不能创造成功,人们应根据自身的生物钟安排生活。
1.上文“The message is simple: wake earlier, perform better. (信息很简单:早起,表现更好。)”提出了一种简单的观点,下文“For many people, a 5 am routine fights with their biology and can weaken both health and productivity. (对许多人来说,凌晨5点的日常与他们的生物规律相悖,可能会削弱健康和生产力。)”则提出了反驳,说明情况并不简单。B项“But it is a more complicated story. (但情况更为复杂。)”起到承上启下的转折作用,与下文内容一致。
2.上文“Research shows that sleep timing is partly rooted in our genes, and chronotype is heritable. (研究表明,睡眠时间部分源于我们的基因,生物节律是可遗传的。)”说明了基因的作用,下文“Adolescents tend toward later sleep patterns and older adults often get up earlier. (青少年倾向于较晚的睡眠模式,而老年人通常更早起床。)”说明不同年龄段有不同的生物节律。A项“It also shifts across the whole life. (它在人的一生中也会变化。)”承接上文的基因影响,引出下文不同年龄段的变化,其中“also”表示递进,across the whole life与下文adolescents和older adults相呼应。
3.上文“A common belief is that adopting an early routine will deliver the same benefits seen in natural morning types. (一种普遍的看法是,采用早起习惯将带来与天生早起型相同的好处。)”提出了人们的常见观点,下文“They are shaped by genetics and circadian biology. For many evening or intermediate types, waking earlier than their natural rhythm can lead to sleep debt (它们由基因和生理节律决定。对许多晚睡型或中间型的人来说,早于自然节律起床会导致睡眠不足)”则说明生物节律不易改变。C项“However, chronotypes are not easily changed. (然而,生物节律不容易改变。)”与上文形成转折,与下文They are shaped by genetics相衔接,符合语境。
4.下文“It is when people's daily schedules are in line with their biological rhythms that they tend to perform best. (当人们的日常安排与他们的生物节律一致时,他们往往表现最好。)”强调的是与生物节律匹配的重要性,而非单纯早起。E项“A key point is that early rising itself does not create success. (关键一点是早起本身并不能创造成功。)”概括了本段核心观点,引出下文关于生物节律与表现关系的论述,符合题意。
5.上文“Early-rising experiments can feel effective at first. It often reflects motivation and attention rather than lasting biological change, similar to what happens after life changes such as starting a new job. (早起实验一开始可能感觉有效。它通常反映的是动力和注意力,而非持久的生物变化,类似于开始新工作等生活变化后的情况。)”说明早期效果源于动力而非生物改变。G项“With routines stabilising, the initial boost can become harder to last. (随着日常稳定下来,最初的提升可能难以持续。)”承接上文,说明当新鲜感和动力消退后,效果难以维持,与上文的“rather than lasting biological change”相呼应。
Passage 6
China’s Young People Return to Their Cultural Roots
In recent years, a cultural change has quietly spread across China. Young people, once thought to be mainly interested in Western music, films, and fashion, are now showing growing interest in their own history and traditions. This movement, often known as “guochao,” or the national trend, can be seen in daily life, on university campuses, and across social media. 1
One clear example of “guochao” is hanfu, the traditional clothing of the Han Chinese. It used to be a special interest shared by only a small group of history lovers. Today, however, it has become a popular style. At weekends, young people wearing long robes and traditional hair decorations can often be seen in old towns, parks, and shopping centers. The hanfu market is now worth billions of yuan, and most buyers are under thirty. 2 For them, the value of hanfu lies in the cultural confidence it represents, rather than in the number of likes it gains on social media. For these young people, hanfu is a way of declaring that Chinese aesthetics and values are as relevant today as they were centuries ago.
Young people are also taking an interest in traditional crafts. Some are learning skills such as embroidery, lacquer work, and making velvet flowers. At the same time, they are bringing these old skills up to date. 3 For example, they make modern phone cases, earrings, and small pieces of furniture. Through short-video websites, young craftsmen can share their work with millions of people. In this way, an old craft can become both a business and a source of pride.
Museums have also become popular places for young visitors. Many are willing to wait for hours to see exhibitions of ancient objects, calligraphy, and paintings. Some popular exhibitions sell out their tickets within minutes. Compared with the past, museum visitors are now much younger. 4 Social media has made traditional culture easier and more attractive to young people. More importantly, in a fast-changing world, they want to find their roots and understand who they are. They no longer believe that Western culture is the only way to become modern.
Although some people worry that tradition may become too commercial, the trend is generally positive. It encourages young people to discover their heritage and helps them see that the wisdom of the past can inform the decisions of the future. 5 Rather than simply receiving history, today’s young people are giving it new life.
A.There are several reasons for this change.
B.Many young people take up hanfu just for social media likes.
C.The reasons behind this trend, however, are not purely commercial.
D.Young people are also finding new ways to develop traditional crafts.
E.It is changing the way young Chinese people understand their identity.
F.Modernity does not have to erase traditions; it can actually build on them.
G.The future of Chinese culture depends on the young generation’s creativity.
【答案】1.E 2.C 3.D 4.A 5.F
【导语】文章讲述近年国潮兴起,中国年轻人重拾传统文化,以多种形式传承创新,该趋势总体积极,为传统文化注入新活力。
1.由上文“This movement, often known as “guochao,” or the national trend, can be seen in daily life, on university campuses, and across social media.(这场常被称为“国潮”的风潮,在日常生活、大学校园和社交媒体上随处可见。)”可知,上文介绍国潮这一现象,空格处说明国潮带来的影响,E项“It is changing the way young Chinese people understand their identity.(它正在改变中国年轻人理解自身身份的方式。)”符合语境,It指代上文“guochao”,承接上文。

Passage 7
To combat the trap of putting a premium on being busy, Cal Newport, author of Deep Work: Rules for Focused Success in a Distracted World, recommends building a habit of “deep work” — the ability to focus without distraction.
There are a number of approaches to mastering the art of deep work — be it lengthy retreats dedicated to a specific task; developing a daily ritual; or taking a “journalistic” approach to seizing moments of deep work when you can throughout the day.
1 “At any given point, I should have deep work scheduled for roughly the next month. Once on the calendar, I protect this time like I would for a doctor’s appointment or important meeting,” he writes.
Another approach to getting more done in less time is to rethink how you prioritise your day — in particular how we craft our to-do lists. Tim Harford, author of Messy: The Power of Disorder to Transform Our Lives, points to a study in the early 1980s. The study divided undergraduates into two groups, and tried to find out the results. 2 Others were told to plan activities and goals in much more detail, day by day.
While the researchers assumed that the well-structured daily plans would be most effective when it comes to the execution of tasks, they were wrong. 3 Harford argues that inevitable distractions often render the daily to-do list ineffective, while leaving room for improvisation (临时调整) in such a list can reap the best results. 4
“Idleness is not just a vacation, an indulgence or a vice; it is as indispensable to the brain as vitamin D is to the body … idleness is, paradoxically, necessary to getting any work done,” he argues.
Srini Pillay, an assistant professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School, believes this counterintuitive (反直觉的) link between downtime and productivity may be due to the way our brains operate. 5 “What people don’t realise is that in order to complete these tasks they need to use both the focus and unfocus circuits in their brains,” says Pillay.
A.The detailed daily plans demotivated students.
B.Some were advised to set out monthly goals and study activities.
C.The key to mastering the art of deep work is to seize every minute to work.
D.Whichever approach, the key is to determine your length of focus time and stick to it.
E.Newport also recommends “deep scheduling” to combat interruptions and get more done.
F.To make the most of focus, we also need to embrace downtime, or as suggested, “be lazy.”
G.When our brains switch between being focused and unfocused they will be more efficient.
【答案】1.E 2.B 3.A 4.F 5.G
【导语】文章介绍了《深度工作:在分心的世界中专注成功的法则》一书的作者卡尔·纽波特建议培养一种“深度工作”的习惯。
1.根据下文““At any given point, I should have deep work scheduled for roughly the next month. Once on the calendar, I protect this time like I would for a doctor’s appointment or important meeting,” he writes.(在任何时候,我都应该安排好接下来一个月左右的深度工作)”可知,空处作为段首句,应该指出提前安排好工作的重要性,E项“Newport also recommends “deep scheduling” to combat interruptions and get more done.(纽波特还建议采用“深度安排”来对抗干扰,完成更多工作)”中的scheduling与下文中的scheduled一致。
2.根据下文“Others were told to plan activities and goals in much more detail, day by day.(其他人被告知要日复一日地更详细地计划活动和目标)”可知,B项“Some were advised to set out monthly goals and study activities.(一些人被建议制定月度目标、安排学习活动)”中的Some与下文中的Others构成Some... Others...的逻辑顺承关系,表示不同的人的计划安排的不同。
3.根据上文“While the researchers assumed that the well-structured daily plans would be most effective when it comes to the execution of tasks, they were wrong.(虽然研究人员认为,当涉及到执行任务时,规划很好的日常计划是最有效的,但他们错了)”可知。此处承接上文,解释这种观点错在哪里,A项“The detailed daily plans demotivated students.(详细的日常计划使学生失去了动力)”中的demotivated students就是原因所在。
4.根据上文“Harford argues that inevitable distractions often render the daily to-do list ineffective, while leaving room for improvisation in such a list can reap the best results.(哈福德认为,不可避免的干扰往往会使每天的待办事项清单变得无效,而在这样的清单中留下灵活调整的空间可以获得最好的结果)”可知,此处承接上文,指出最大限度地集中注意力的具体做法,F项“To make the most of focus, we also need to embrace downtime, or as suggested, “be lazy.”(为了最大限度地集中注意力,我们还需要接受休息时间,或者像建议的那样“偷懒”)”中的make the most of focus与上文中的reap the best results一致。
5.根据下文““What people don’t realise is that in order to complete these tasks they need to use both the focus and unfocus circuits in their brains,” says Pillay.(皮莱说:“人们没有意识到的是,为了完成这些任务,他们需要同时使用大脑中的聚焦和非聚焦回路。”)”可知,G项“When our brains switch between being focused and unfocused they will be more efficient.(当我们的大脑在专注和不专注之间切换时,它们会更有效率)”中的focused and unfocused与下文中的focus and unfocus一致。
Passage 8
Why Are Keyboards QWERTY?
If you have ever wondered why the letters on your keyboard are in the order that they are, you can thank American history. In 1868, an inventor patented the first commercially sold typewriter. 1 During the years, he edited the arrangement of the letters in each row. Finally, in 1874, he unveiled what we now know as the QWERTY keyboard.
There are several theories as to why the keys were arranged this way. One popular theory is that it helped prevent typewriters from jamming. In early machines, hitting two nearby keys at the same time could easily cause the mechanical arms to get stuck. 2 That slowed down the fast typing slightly, making the machine work more smoothly.
Is QWERTY really the best arrangement of letters for quick typing? Many people think not. 3 Developed by an American psychologist in the 1930s, this alternative rearranges the order of letters on the “home row”, where your fingers typically rest. It hosts a vowel-heavy arrangement to encourage the writer to use different fingers for quicker typing.
4 However, QWERTY has always remained the standard globally. Perhaps humankind’s fondness for routine is the main reason. Once a habit is formed, it becomes extremely difficult for people to change. This traditional habit is sometimes called “the inertia of natural habits”. 5
A.This change was welcome to advanced typists.
B.This was a new and exciting way to write at that time.
C.Sometimes we need extra effort to get rid of such habits
D.Thus the layout remains although we now type on electronic screens.
E.Over the years, many other excellent keyboard layouts have come along.
F.Among the handful of new layouts, the Dvorak keyboard is very popular.
G.To fix this annoying issue, the inventor decided to separate popular letters.
【答案】1.B 2.G 3.F 4.E 5.D
【导语】文章主要介绍QWERTY键盘的由来、设计原理以及尽管有更好布局,它仍作为国际标准的原因。
1.根据上文“In 1868, an inventor patented the first commercially sold typewriter.(1868年,一位发明家获得了第一台商用打字机的专利。)”以及下文“During the years, he edited the arrangement of the letters in each row.(在那些年里,他调整每一行字母的排布。)”可知,上文引出第一台商用打字机,下文讲述后续字母排布的调整,此空需要承接打字机诞生这件事。B选项“This was a new and exciting way to write at that time(在那时,这是一种新颖又令人振奋的书写方式。)”中的This指代前文提到的第一台商用打字机,承接上文并自然引出后文对键盘布局的改进,符合语境。
2.根据上文“In early machines, hitting two nearby keys at the same time could easily cause the mechanical arms to get stuck.(在早期机器中,同时按下相邻两个按键很容易造成机械臂卡住。)”以及下文“That slowed down the fast typing slightly, making the machine work more smoothly.(这略微降低快速打字速度,让机器运行更顺畅。)”可知,上文提出打字机卡键的故障,下文是该方案带来的效果,此空要填入对应的解决办法。G选项“To fix this annoying issue, the inventor decided to separate popular letters.(为解决这个恼人的问题,发明家决定把常用字母分开放置。)”中的this annoying issue指代前文打字机卡键问题,构成“发现问题—采取对策—产生效果”的逻辑链,That指代把常用字母分开这个做法,前后呼应,符合语境。
3.根据上文“Is QWERTY really the best arrangement of letters for quick typing? Many people think not.(QWERTY真的是适合快速打字的最佳字母排布吗?很多人并不这么认为。)”以及下文“Developed by an American psychologist in the 1930s, this alternative rearranges the order of letters on the “home row”, where your fingers typically rest.(它由一名美国心理学家在20世纪30年代研发,这个替代方案重新排布了手指放置的基准行上的字母。)”可知,上文提出QWERTY布局并非最优,下文的this alternative指代空格提到的另一种键盘布局。F选项“Among the handful of new layouts, the Dvorak keyboard is very popular.(在少数新布局中,德沃夏克键盘十分受欢迎。)”引出德沃夏克键盘,下文用this alternative指代它,实现指代呼应,符合语境。
4.根据下文“However, QWERTY has always remained the standard globally.(然而,QWERTY一直是全球通用标准。)”可知,however表达转折含义,说明虽然出现了别的键盘布局,但QWERTY依旧是主流,E选项“Over the years, many other excellent keyboard layouts have come along.(多年来,很多其他优秀的键盘布局陆续出现。)”先陈述有很多其他布局,再通过however转折突出QWERTY的主流地位,逻辑通顺,符合语境。
5.根据上文“Once a habit is formed, it becomes extremely difficult for people to change. This traditional habit is sometimes called “the inertia of natural habits”.(习惯一旦养成,人们很难改变。这种传统习惯有时被称作“自然习惯的惯性”。)”可知,上文点明习惯具有惯性,此空由习惯惯性推导出最终结果。D选项“Thus the layout remains although we now type on electronic screens.(所以尽管我们现在在电子屏幕上打字,这种布局依然保留下来。)”中的Thus表示因果关系,由习惯惯性推出QWERTY布局沿用至今这一结论,承接上文,符合语境。
Passage 9
You are probably fascinated by incredible competitions like the World Cup. Beyond goals and victories, this got us wondering: Why do some competitions make people feel so happy while others don’t? And how can competition benefit our overall well-being? It turns out that researchers have a lot to say about competition, especially at work.
1 Inter-team competition, for example, tends to unite individuals into a community with a shared goal. Victory depends on supporting one another, pushing teammates to improve and achieve more than they are alone. In the working world, we call this “coopetition” (cooperative competition), which can create an environment where friendly competitors can help each other grow. 2
Coopetition differs from zero-sum thinking, the belief that one person’s gain must come from another person’s loss, which does not allow for a bigger pie. 3 Such competition leads to envy, creating a sense of loneliness and insecurity. It also causes fear of losing, which in turn leads to status anxiety and long-term stress.
So how do we bring the magic of coopetition into everyday life? 4 First, a culture of trust — where support is rewarded rather than taken advantage of. Second, positive-sum thinking — where every victory grows the pie for everyone. This means that every win benefits the community. 5
Picture people high-fiving after mutual support, rather than working against others. That’s World Cup level happiness rooted in belonging, not burnout.
A.Competition often creates pressure and anxiety.
B.Coopetition works only with two key ingredients.
C.Competition has a way of bringing people together.
D.It improves work quality as they’re in the same boat.
E.One person’s success comes at the expense of others.
F.It is equally important to root for your share of the pie.
G.It increases the size of the pie without taking from others.
【答案】1.C 2.D 3.E 4.B 5.G
【导语】文章探讨竞争,介绍合作式竞争,区别于零和博弈,说明它凝聚人、互利共赢,并提出实现合作式竞争所需的两个条件。
1.根据后文“Inter-team competition, for example, tends to unite individuals into a community with a shared goal. Victory depends on supporting one another, pushing teammates to improve and achieve more than they are alone. In the working world, we call this “coopetition” (cooperative competition), which can create an environment where friendly competitors can help each other grow.(例如,跨团队竞争往往能将个人凝聚成一个拥有共同目标的群体。胜利取决于彼此支持,激励队友不断进步,超越独自奋斗所能达到的成就。在职场中,我们称之为“合作竞争”,这种模式可以营造出一种友好竞争的环境,让彼此互相帮助、共同成长)”可知,空后举例说明团队间竞争能让个体为共同目标凝聚成集体,对应C选项“竞争有一种将人们凝聚到一起的作用”,可总领本段。
2.根据上文“In the working world, we call this “coopetition” (cooperative competition), which can create an environment where friendly competitors can help each other grow.(在职场中,我们称之为“合作竞争”,这种模式可以营造出一种友好竞争的环境,让彼此互相帮助、共同成长)”可知,空前介绍职场中的合作竞争能营造友好竞争者互助成长的环境,D选项“因为他们处境一致,这能提升工作质量”承接上文说明合作竞争的益处。
3.根据上文“Coopetition differs from zero-sum thinking, the belief that one person’s gain must come from another person’s loss, which does not allow for a bigger pie.(合作竞争与零和思维不同,后者认为一个人的收益必须来自另一个人的损失,这种思维方式无法实现更大的整体利益)”可知,空前解释零和思维是一方获益必然伴随另一方损失,E选项“一个人的成功是以牺牲他人为代价的”是对零和思维的进一步阐释,衔接后文这类竞争带来的负面后果。
4.根据后文“First, a culture of trust — where support is rewarded rather than taken advantage of. Second, positive-sum thinking — where every victory grows the pie for everyone. This means that every win benefits the community.(首先,建立信任文化——支持是被奖励的,而不是被利用的。其次,秉持正和思维——每一次胜利都能让每个人受益。这意味着每一个成功都会造福整个社区)”可知,空后列出了实现合作竞争的两个核心要素:信任文化与正和思维,B选项“合作竞争只有具备两个关键要素才能发挥作用”可引出下文内容。
5.根据上文“Second, positive-sum thinking — where every victory grows the pie for everyone. This means that every win benefits the community.(其次,秉持正和思维——每一次胜利都能让每个人受益。这意味着每一个成功都会造福整个社区)”可知,空前说明正和思维意味着每一次胜利都能把整体蛋糕做大,惠及全体,G选项“它无需从他人处攫取利益就能扩大蛋糕的规模”承接正和思维的内涵,逻辑连贯。
Passage 10
For years, doctors have dismissed multivitamins as a waste of money, claiming they only produce “expensive urine”. However, emerging evidence suggests that these supplements (补充物) may actually benefit certain groups of people. 1
In 2001, researchers from America’s National Institutes of Health studied over 3,500 people with age-related macular degeneration, a common cause of vision loss in older adults. Participants received high doses of vitamins C and E, zinc and beta carotene. 2 They were the first proof that supplements could truly help.
Since then, further research has pointed to additional advantages. A 2022 study involving more than 5,000 participants aged 60 and older found that those taking daily multivitamins performed better on memory tests than those taking a placebo (安慰剂). 3 This suggests a potential link between cardiovascular (心血管的) health and cognitive (认知的) benefits.
Not all evidence, however, points in the same direction. Other studies have found no significant cognitive benefits from multivitamin use, leading to ongoing debate among experts. 4 A 2024 review of 84 studies concluded that while multivitamins may offer some protection against cognitive decline, the effect is modest and varies greatly across populations.
Given the mixed results, experts recommend a cautious approach. 5 However, certain populations, such as older adults or those with limited diets, may benefit. For those who do choose to take them, consulting a healthcare provider is essential to avoiding potential risks from excessive intake.
A.It challenges the common belief about multivitamins.
B.The benefit was most obvious in those with heart disease.
C.Lacking consistent results makes firm conclusions difficult.
D.The findings showed a 25% reduction in advanced disease risk.
E.Doctors now recommend daily multivitamins for all older adults.
F.Vitamin overuse may cause serious health problems to some people.
G.They advise healthy individuals with a balanced diet need no supplements.

Passage 12
How to Stay Focused When You Study
You sit down with your books, ready to study, and ten minutes later you are checking your phone again. Sounds familiar? Staying focused is one of the biggest challenges for students. The good news is that focus is a skill, and like any skill, it can be trained. 1
First, make a clear plan for each study session. Instead of saying “I will study English tonight”, decide in advance what exactly you will do: review ten new words, read one passage, or finish five grammar exercises. 2 It also gives you a sense of achievement when you check off each task.
Second, control your environment. Put your phone in another room or turn it off while studying. Many students believe they can resist the pull of a buzzing phone, but research shows that even the sight of a phone can reduce attention. 3 A tidy desk with only your materials on it helps too.
Third, work in short blocks with breaks. A common method is to study for twenty-five minutes and then take a five-minute break. 4 During the break, stand up, stretch or look out of the window instead of picking up your phone again.
Finally, accept that your mind will wander. It is natural for attention to drift, especially when a task is difficult. The key is not to fight it but to notice it and gently bring yourself back. 5 With practice, your “focus muscle” grows stronger, and studying becomes less tiring.
A.Make sure to keep the phone out of sight.
B.Here are some practical tips to help you improve it.
C.This clear goal makes it easier to start and to stay on track.
D.Each time you catch yourself drifting, start the task again calmly.
E.Longer blocks work better for some students, and that is fine too.
F.Do not study in the same place where you usually watch videos.
G.Rewarding yourself after a long session can also keep you motivated.
【答案】1.B 2.C 3.A 4.E 5.D
【导语】主要介绍几条实用建议,帮助学生在学习时保持专注。
1.根据空前的“The good news is that focus is a skill, and like any skill, it can be trained.(好消息是专注力是一种技能,并且和其他技能一样,它可以被训练)”可知,前文提出专注力可以训练,下文依次列举First、Second、Third、Finally多条具体方法,故此空需要起到总起下文、引出建议的作用,B选项“Here are some practical tips to help you improve it.(这里有一些实用建议可以帮你提升它)”中的some practical tips对应下文分点建议,代词it指代上文中的focus,起到承上启下的作用。
2.根据空前的“Instead of saying “I will study English tonight”, decide in advance what exactly you will do: review ten new words, read one passage, or finish five grammar exercises.(不要说“我今晚要学英语”,提前确定你具体要做什么:复习十个生词、读一篇短文或者完成五道语法练习)”以及空后的“It also gives you a sense of achievement when you check off each task.(当你完成每一项任务时,它还会给你成就感)”可知,空前讲述要制定具体明确的学习任务,空后It also表示递进,介绍该做法带来的第二个好处,空格处应介绍明确目标带来的第一个好处,C选项“This clear goal makes it easier to start and to stay on track.(这个清晰的目标会让你更容易开始学习并且保持进度)”中的This clear goal指代上文提前确定的各项具体学习任务,和空后also构成递进逻辑。
3.根据空前的“Many students believe they can resist the pull of a buzzing phone, but research shows that even the sight of a phone can reduce attention.(很多学生认为自己可以抵挡手机的诱惑,但研究表明就算只是看见手机也会降低注意力)”以及空后的“A tidy desk with only your materials on it helps too.(一张只摆放学习资料的整洁书桌同样有帮助)”可知,本段主题为管控学习环境,空前点明看到手机就会分散注意力,因此空格应给出对应解决办法,A选项“Make sure to keep the phone out of sight.(务必把手机放在视线之外)”针对上文“看见手机会降低注意力”给出直接对策,和后文also引出的另一条环境建议衔接顺畅,符合语境。
4.根据空前的“A common method is to study for twenty‑five minutes and then take a five‑minute break.(一种常用方法是学习25分钟,然后休息五分钟)”以及空后的“During the break, stand up, stretch or look out of the window instead of picking up your phone again.(休息期间,站起来、伸懒腰或者望向窗外,不要再次拿起手机)”可知,空前介绍一种普遍使用的短时学习再休息的模式,空格处继续围绕学习时段长短展开补充说明,E选项“Longer blocks work better for some students, and that is fine too.(更长的学习时段对部分学生效果更好,这也没有问题)”承接前面25分钟的标准时长,补充说明不同学生适配不同时长,空后再介绍休息时的注意事项,逻辑连贯。
5.根据空前的“Finally, accept that your mind will wander. It is natural for attention to drift, especially when a task is difficult. The key is not to fight it but to notice it and gently bring yourself back.(最后,接受自己会走神。注意力涣散是很正常的,尤其是面对困难任务时。关键不要与之对抗,而是意识到走神,然后温和地把思绪拉回来)”以及空后的“With practice, your “focus muscle” grows stronger, and studying becomes less tiring.(经过练习,你的“专注力肌肉”会变得更强,学习也不会那么疲惫)”可知,空前说明走神无需对抗,要主动察觉并收回思绪,空格需要阐述察觉走神后的具体行为,D选项“Each time you catch yourself drifting, start the task again calmly.(每当你发现自己走神,就平静地重新投入任务)”中的catch yourself drifting对应原文mind will wander、attention to drift,承接上文做法,为后文坚持练习做铺垫。

How to build better reading habits
Many people wish to read more books, but they always find it hard to stick to reading. 1 If you want to develop a lasting reading habit, the following advice may work for you.
First, stop setting unrealistic goals. Some people decide to finish one book every week. 2 Instead, you may start with 15‑20 minutes of reading every single day. Small daily reading is far better than a long one‑time reading activity on weekends.
Second, choose books that truly interest you, not only the books recommended by other people. 3 If the book makes you sleepy and bored after several chapters, just put it aside. There is no shame in giving up a book you do not enjoy.
Third, create a fixed reading time in your daily schedule. 4 For example, you can read a few pages right before you go to bed each night, or read for a while on your way on public transport. Gradually your brain will get used to this routine.
Finally, reduce your screen time. Smartphones are our biggest distraction. When you intend to read, keep your mobile phone in another room. 5 In this way you can focus your attention on the pages of your book.
A.That target is often too heavy for beginners.
B.It is necessary to buy as many books as possible.
C.They start enthusiastically but give up soon afterwards.
D.Try to form a regular reading routine at the same time each day.
E.You do not have to force yourself to read popular books you dislike.
F.You should share your reading experience on social media every day.
G.You can also turn off all notifications on your phone.
【答案】1.C 2.A 3.E 4.D 5.G
【导语】文章主要讲述了如何通过设定小目标、选感兴趣的书、固定时间和减少屏幕干扰来培养更好的阅读习惯。

5.上文“When you intend to read, keep your mobile phone in another room. (当你打算阅读时,把手机放在另一个房。间)”建议将手机远离阅读区域以减少干扰。空处承接前文,进一步补充减少手机干扰的方法。G项“你也可以关闭手机上所有的通知。”符合语境,该项中的also表示递进,notifications与上文mobile phone相呼应,且下文“In this way you can focus your attention on the pages of your book. (这样你就能把注意力集中在书本上。)”中的this way指代前文的两种减少干扰的方法。
Passage 14
Have you ever seen a duck gracefully floating on a pond? While it appears peaceful above the water, its feet are paddling fast to stay afloat underneath. This contrast illustrates “floating duck syndrome”, a term that describes the tendency for people to mask their internal stress and struggles behind an appearance of outward success and calm.
1 Just like ducks, they attempt to present an image of accomplishment while struggling with internal stress. Underneath the calm appearance, there is anxiety, self-doubt, and the persistent pursuit of achievement. This is a struggle hidden from casual observation but keenly felt by those who experience it firsthand.
Modern life demands the constant need to hand responsibilities across school, work, family, and leisure. Therefore, individuals try to be outstanding in multiple areas while covering up their struggles, leading to their hard work and suffering going unnoticed. 2 . Through this disconnection between perception and reality, the pressure to appear effortlessly successful becomes obvious. When we underestimate the challenges of success, we find ourselves stretched thin across a large number of tasks. 3 Although this strategy might have short-term successes, it ultimately leaves us with many unmet expectations.
Floating duck syndrome can have concerning impacts on our well-being and connectedness. 4 . This internalization of struggle not only adds weight to our burdens but also separates us from potential sources of support. We may cheat ourselves into believing that we must deal with our challenges alone, without needing help from others. This only makes it harder to cope effectively and denies us the opportunity to connect genuinely with others.
The idea of easy success hides a deeper truth. 5 By accepting our weakness and acknowledging these efforts, we promote a culture of openness and care — one where seeking help is not viewed as a sign of weakness, but rather as a courageous step forward.
A.It is like jugglers (杂技演员) trying to keep several balls in the air at once.
B.To keep a capable appearance, we may hide the stress from public view.
C.True achievements often require us to accept the hard work behind them.
D.So we usually mistakenly believe that achievements come easily to others.
E.These findings highlight our tendency to cover up visible signs of struggle.
F.Floating duck syndrome is particularly common among high-achieving people.
G.We may feel pressured to present an outward image of competence and strength.
【答案】1.F 2.D 3.A 4.B 5.C
【导语】本文介绍浮鸭综合征,指人们外表成功平静,暗中承受压力,分析其成因危害,并指出真正成就离不开背后的努力。
1.根据上文“This contrast illustrates “floating duck syndrome”, a term that describes the tendency for people to mask their internal stress and struggles behind an appearance of outward success and calm.(这种反差诠释了“浮鸭综合征”,该术语描述人们会在外表成功、平静的表象之下掩盖内心压力与挣扎的倾向。)”以及后文“Just like ducks, they attempt to present an image of accomplishment while struggling with internal stress.(就像鸭子一样,他们努力展现出有所成就的样子,内心却在压力中挣扎。)”可知,空格处引出容易患上浮鸭综合征的人群。F项“Floating duck syndrome is particularly common among high-achieving people.(浮鸭综合征在成绩优异、成就突出的人群中尤为常见。)”符合语境。
2.根据上文“Therefore, individuals try to be outstanding in multiple areas while covering up their struggles, leading to their hard work and suffering going unnoticed.(因此,人们努力在多个领域表现出色,同时掩盖自己的挣扎,导致他们的付出与痛苦不被人察觉。)”可知,空处承接上文说明上文导致的结果。D项“So we usually mistakenly believe that achievements come easily to others.(所以我们常常错误地认为别人取得成就轻而易举。)”符合语境。
3.根据上文“When we underestimate the challenges of success, we find ourselves stretched thin across a large number of tasks.(当我们低估成功背后的挑战时,会发现自己要同时应对大量任务,分身乏术。)”以及后文“Although this strategy might have short-term successes, it ultimately leaves us with many unmet expectations.(尽管这种方式可能带来短期的成功,但最终会让我们有许多无法达成的预期。)”可知,空格处用比喻描述同时兼顾多项任务。A项“It is like jugglers (杂技演员) trying to keep several balls in the air at once.(这就像杂技演员试图同时让好几个球保持在空中不掉落。)”符合语境。
4.根据上文“Floating duck syndrome can have concerning impacts on our well-being and connectedness.(浮鸭综合征会对我们的身心健康和人际关系产生不良影响。)”以及后文“This internalization of struggle not only adds weight to our burdens but also separates us from potential sources of support.(这种独自扛下困境的做法不仅加重我们的负担,还让我们远离潜在的帮助来源。)”可知,空格处说明具体影响且成绩下文。B项“To keep a capable appearance, we may hide the stress from public view.(为了维持能干的形象,我们可能会把压力藏起来,不让别人看见。)”符合语境。
5.根据上文“The idea of easy success hides a deeper truth.(轻松成功这种想法掩盖了一个更深层的事实。)”以及后文“By accepting our weakness and acknowledging these efforts, we promote a culture of openness and care — one where seeking help is not viewed as a sign of weakness, but rather as a courageous step forward.(接纳自身弱点、认可这些付出,我们就能营造开放包容的氛围,求助不再被视作软弱,而是勇敢的一步。)”可知,空格处点明获得真正成就的因素。C项“True achievements often require us to accept the hard work behind them.(真正的成就往往需要我们接纳其背后的辛苦付出。)”符合语境,承上启下。
Passage 15
Efficiency optimises (优化) performance. But connection transforms people. A team can be perfectly scheduled, highly productive, and still unable to share what really matters.
1 But here’s what I keep noticing: While we are getting better at moving fast, we are not always getting better at being close.
A train arriving exactly at 8:02 is a measurable success. But what isn’t measured? The conversation on the platform, the pause to help someone with their suitcase, and the eye contact 2 It takes time. It interrupts the schedule. But it’s the very thing that makes the journey human.
The Swiss railways reported something beautiful — connection punctuality (准时率) reached 98.9%. Maybe there is a deeper metaphor, which is not about whether the train was perfectly punctual, but about whether people made the connection. 3 Who did I really notice today? Where did I slow down long enough to listen? When did I choose presence over productivity? Efficiency should serve connection, not replace it. Because a perfectly timed life that misses the people in front of you is still a missed connection.
Before your next meeting or transition, pause for 30 seconds. Look up. 4 Ask one real question. Connection doesn’t need more time — it needs more presence; let one moment run over. Choose one interaction a day where you don’t rush. Stay a little longer. Efficiency can survive this. Relationship needs it. Finally, measure what can’t be optimised. At the end of the day, ask: “Where did I choose presence over pace? When did I let myself be human?”
Efficiency is important — it keeps things moving. 5
A.Make eye contact.
B.Efficiency feels right.
C.Connection is inefficient.
D.Efficiency’s victory raises questions.
E.But connection tells us why it matters.
F.What if we measured our days like this instead?
G.However, connection comes at the cost of flexibility.
【答案】1.B 2.C 3.F 4.A 5.E
【导语】文章阐述效率可优化事务、联结可改变人,倡导人们放慢节奏、注重人际陪伴而非一味追求效率。
1.后文“But here’s what I keep noticing: While we are getting better at moving fast, we are not always getting better at being close. (但我一直发现:我们越来越擅长快速行事,却不擅长拉近彼此距离。)”语义转折,说明设空句是对效率的正面肯定。B选项“Efficiency feels right .(效率让人无可指摘。)”先肯定效率的价值,与后文转折逻辑匹配。
2.上文“The conversation on the platform, the pause to help someone with their suitcase, and the eye contact. (站台上的交谈、停下来帮别人提行李箱、眼神交流。)”列举人际温情的低效行为,后文“It takes time. It interrupts the schedule. (这需要花费时间,会打乱日程。)”说明这类行为不符合效率。C选项“Connection is inefficient. (人际联结是低效的。)”总结上文列举的暖心行为的特点,承接前后文。
3.后文“Who did I really notice today? Where did I slow down long enough to listen? When did I choose presence over productivity? (我今天真正留意了谁?我在哪里驻足倾听?我何时选择了专注当下而非追求效率?)”是全新的衡量生活的方式。F选项“What if we measured our days like this instead? (倘若我们换这种方式衡量生活会如何?)”引出下文的全新衡量标准,衔接紧密。
4.前文“Look up. (抬起头。)”、后文“Ask one real question. (问一个真诚的问题。)”均为具体的拉近人际联结的动作。A选项“Make eye contact. (进行眼神交流。)”是与前后句式一致的具体行为,贴合段落放慢节奏、真诚互动的语境。
5.前文“Efficiency is important — it keeps things moving. (效率很重要,它让一切有序推进。)”肯定效率的作用,E选项“But connection tells us why it matters. (但人际联结告诉我们这一切为何有意义。)”形成转折,升华文章主旨,再次强调人际关系的重要性。

Passage 1
On September 9, Apple entered the foldable phone market with the iPhone Duo, its first folding phone. For a company whose every move leads the industry, this was no small event. 1
Huawei had in fact moved before Apple. Two days before the Apple event, it unveiled its second tri-fold flagship, the Mate XT2, putting it on sale before the iPhone Duo could even be pre-ordered. 2 The message to consumers was plain: Huawei had no intention of giving up its ground.
Huawei’s confidence rests on hard numbers. In the first half of 2026, it held roughly two-thirds of China’s foldable market. 3 No other company came close.
4 In evaluating the iPhone Duo, Huawei sees more opportunity than threat. Many analysts agree: Apple’s entry has finally made the foldable form impossible to doubt, and the company best placed to profit from a bigger market is the one that already leads it. Production targets for Huawei’s foldable lines are said to be rising for the second half of the year.
Rather than narrowing its defense, Huawei is widening it. Beyond the tri-fold Mate XT2, it is reportedly developing another book-style foldable with a 7.6-inch main screen, one that looks much like the iPhone Duo on paper. 5 All of these devices run on Huawei’s own Kirin chips and HarmonyOS — a sign that the battle for the future of folding phones has only begun.
A.Many buyers, however, say they would rather wait for a second generation.
B.This second model is expected to appear within months, giving Huawei an Apple-style answer of its own.
C.Huawei first entered the foldable market in 2019 with its original Mate X.
D.That confidence, however, tells only half the story.
E.This early strike was carefully timed to seize the spotlight before Apple could own it.
F.Yet the louder answer to it would come from its strongest challenger in China, Huawei.
G.Such dominance took years of patient work to build.
Passage 2
How to Refuse Others Properly as a High School Student
As a high school student, you value friendship and hope to get along well with people around you. 1 Unwilling acceptance often makes you buried in extra work and slows down your own progress. Learning to say no appropriately is a necessary social skill for you.
Distinguish between reasonable requests and improper ones. True friends will respect your heavy study pressure. If a friend wants you to give up your reviewing time for unimportant entertainment activities, this is a request you should politely refuse. 2
Choose suitable ways to express your refusal. 3 You can state your real difficulty honestly instead of making up complex lies. For example, you can explain that you have to finish a lot of reviewing work before the coming exam. Meanwhile, you can offer limited help within your ability when possible. This shows you care about others though you cannot satisfy their full demands.
4 Some classmates may try to persuade you again to change your mind. If you give in because of peer pressure, you will fall into the same trouble once more. Keep your attitude polite and steady. Good relationships will not break just because of your reasonable refusal.
Understand that saying no is not an act of selfishness. 5 When you refuse wisely, you protect your limited time and energy from being drained unnecessarily. This, in turn, helps you maintain emotional stability and sustain a high level of focus in your studies. Gradually, you will strike a good balance between keeping social contacts and protecting your own needs.
A.It is an act of self-respect.
B.Put yourself in your friend’s shoes.
C.Stick to your decision firmly after you refuse.
D.You don’t have to give in to unreasonable requests.
E.Direct and cold rejection may hurt personal relationships.
F.Respecting others marks the first step of social interaction.
G.You may find it hard to turn down requests from classmates.
Passage 3
Many people believe that curiosity is a natural gift, something you either have or don’t. 1 Curiosity, researchers argue, is more like a muscle that can be strengthened with regular exercise. Unfortunately, as we grow older, most of us lose our appetite for new questions.
One reason is that formal education often rewards answers rather than questions. At school, students are praised when they supply the “right” solution. 2 Over time, they learn to avoid asking questions that might reveal gaps in their knowledge. The fear of appearing ignorant gradually kills their natural curiosity.
3 When we meet something unexpected, our brains enter a state of mild alarm. We feel discomfort because our existing mental models cannot explain what we are seeing. Many people’s first reaction is to turn away, to dismiss the strange observation as a mistake. Curious people, however, treat that uneasy feeling not as a threat but as an invitation.
This does not mean curious individuals are endlessly seeking random bits of unimportant information. 4 It is focused, driven by a desire to fill specific gaps in their understanding. A curious physicist does not want to know every fact about every star, but to resolve a particular puzzle about how stars evolve.
5 It requires actively noticing what you do not know, tolerating the discomfort of unresolved puzzles, and choosing to chase answers instead of ignoring uncertainty. Anyone can build this skill, if they are willing to practise.
A.They are taught that uncertainty equals failure.
B.True curiosity is not aimless collection of facts.
C.Curiosity involves a special reaction to surprise.
D.Curiosity is therefore separate from intelligence.
E.But this popular view does not hold up under research.
F.Becoming more curious takes consistent, deliberate effort.
G.Teachers seldom encourage students to challenge textbook statements.
Passage 4
Meetings are a key way to get yourself noticed. When you “hold your own” in a meeting, you want to show that you’re confident, and this can mark you out as a future leader. 1 . If you don’t express your ideas, no matter how great they are, they’re useless to you, your team and your organization. Here is the guide to getting your voice heard at meetings.
Come prepared. Have some talking points planned out before you express your idea. Practice with a trusted colleague who can help you iron out any problems. Imagine the possible reactions people might have to your idea. 2 . What are some questions that might come up in response to your idea? How will you answer those questions?
Get to the point. Engage people in with the main points of the idea, then dive into the details. When you start strong you’ll give them a reason to continue listening. 3 . People are overwhelmed with numerous things to do at work. While the eight second attention span may be a myth, people certainly appreciate brevity (简短) now more than ever.
4 . People lose interest when they’re listening to a long talk. Invite them to be a part of your idea. Organize your argument in a way that makes them want to ask questions and learn more. When you give them time to ask questions, they’ll be more interested, attentive, and engaged. The more you can engage them, the more they’ll truly listen.
Have confidence in yourself. The more you believe in yourself, the more that shows through when you express an idea. People can hear the confidence in your voice when you speak and see it in your body language. If you allow yourself to think that you’re nervous, you’ll convince yourself to be. Fight nerves by taking a few moments to stand in a power pose. 5 .
A.Time is precious.
B.Make it a conversation.
C.Speak with elegance and intention.
D.However, being confident is not enough.
E.This simple body trick can increase your confidence.
F.Look at it from as many other perspectives as possible.
G.This is how you show value and make a positive impression.
Passage 5
At 5 am, social media fills with proof that the early risers have already won the day. This is the routine that separates high performers from everyone else, reinforced by high-profile early risers such as Apple CEO Tim Cook, entrepreneur Richard Branson and so on. The message is simple: wake earlier, perform better. 1 For many people, a 5 am routine fights with their biology and can weaken both health and productivity. Much depends on your individual biological rhythm, or “chronotype”.
Chronotypes reflect when people naturally feel alert or sleepy, and genetics play a major role in shaping them. Research shows that sleep timing is partly rooted in our genes, and chronotype is heritable. 2 Adolescents tend toward later sleep patterns and older adults often get up earlier.
Studies often find differences between chronotypes. Morning types tend to report better academic outcomes. They are also less likely to report drug abuse and more likely to exercise regularly. Evening types, on average, show higher rates of burnout and are more likely to report poorer mental and physical health.
A common belief is that adopting an early routine will deliver the same benefits seen in natural morning types. 3 They are shaped by genetics and circadian (生理节奏的) biology. For many evening or intermediate types, waking earlier than their natural rhythm can lead to sleep debt, reduced concentration, and poorer mood over time.
4 It is when people’s daily schedules are in line with their biological rhythms that they tend to perform best. Morning-oriented people often thrive in systems structured around early starts, while evening types may struggle not because they are less capable, but because their peak alertness occurs later.
Early-rising experiments can feel effective at first. It often reflects motivation and attention rather than lasting biological change, similar to what happens after life changes such as starting a new job. 5
A.It also shifts across the whole life.
B.But it is a more complicated story.
C.However, chronotypes are not easily changed.
D.Morning types have an advantage in their careers.
E.A key point is that early rising itself does not create success.
F.The patterns reinforce how chronotype shapes daily behaviour.
G.With routines stabilising, the initial boost can become harder to last.
Passage 6
China’s Young People Return to Their Cultural Roots
In recent years, a cultural change has quietly spread across China. Young people, once thought to be mainly interested in Western music, films, and fashion, are now showing growing interest in their own history and traditions. This movement, often known as “guochao,” or the national trend, can be seen in daily life, on university campuses, and across social media. 1
One clear example of “guochao” is hanfu, the traditional clothing of the Han Chinese. It used to be a special interest shared by only a small group of history lovers. Today, however, it has become a popular style. At weekends, young people wearing long robes and traditional hair decorations can often be seen in old towns, parks, and shopping centers. The hanfu market is now worth billions of yuan, and most buyers are under thirty. 2 For them, the value of hanfu lies in the cultural confidence it represents, rather than in the number of likes it gains on social media. For these young people, hanfu is a way of declaring that Chinese aesthetics and values are as relevant today as they were centuries ago.
Young people are also taking an interest in traditional crafts. Some are learning skills such as embroidery, lacquer work, and making velvet flowers. At the same time, they are bringing these old skills up to date. 3 For example, they make modern phone cases, earrings, and small pieces of furniture. Through short-video websites, young craftsmen can share their work with millions of people. In this way, an old craft can become both a business and a source of pride.
Museums have also become popular places for young visitors. Many are willing to wait for hours to see exhibitions of ancient objects, calligraphy, and paintings. Some popular exhibitions sell out their tickets within minutes. Compared with the past, museum visitors are now much younger. 4 Social media has made traditional culture easier and more attractive to young people. More importantly, in a fast-changing world, they want to find their roots and understand who they are. They no longer believe that Western culture is the only way to become modern.
Although some people worry that tradition may become too commercial, the trend is generally positive. It encourages young people to discover their heritage and helps them see that the wisdom of the past can inform the decisions of the future. 5 Rather than simply receiving history, today’s young people are giving it new life.
A.There are several reasons for this change.
B.Many young people take up hanfu just for social media likes.
C.The reasons behind this trend, however, are not purely commercial.
D.Young people are also finding new ways to develop traditional crafts.
E.It is changing the way young Chinese people understand their identity.
F.Modernity does not have to erase traditions; it can actually build on them.
G.The future of Chinese culture depends on the young generation’s creativity.
Passage 7
To combat the trap of putting a premium on being busy, Cal Newport, author of Deep Work: Rules for Focused Success in a Distracted World, recommends building a habit of “deep work” — the ability to focus without distraction.
There are a number of approaches to mastering the art of deep work — be it lengthy retreats dedicated to a specific task; developing a daily ritual; or taking a “journalistic” approach to seizing moments of deep work when you can throughout the day.
1 “At any given point, I should have deep work scheduled for roughly the next month. Once on the calendar, I protect this time like I would for a doctor’s appointment or important meeting,” he writes.
Another approach to getting more done in less time is to rethink how you prioritise your day — in particular how we craft our to-do lists. Tim Harford, author of Messy: The Power of Disorder to Transform Our Lives, points to a study in the early 1980s. The study divided undergraduates into two groups, and tried to find out the results. 2 Others were told to plan activities and goals in much more detail, day by day.
While the researchers assumed that the well-structured daily plans would be most effective when it comes to the execution of tasks, they were wrong. 3 Harford argues that inevitable distractions often render the daily to-do list ineffective, while leaving room for improvisation (临时调整) in such a list can reap the best results. 4
“Idleness is not just a vacation, an indulgence or a vice; it is as indispensable to the brain as vitamin D is to the body … idleness is, paradoxically, necessary to getting any work done,” he argues.
Srini Pillay, an assistant professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School, believes this counterintuitive (反直觉的) link between downtime and productivity may be due to the way our brains operate. 5 “What people don’t realise is that in order to complete these tasks they need to use both the focus and unfocus circuits in their brains,” says Pillay.
A.The detailed daily plans demotivated students.
B.Some were advised to set out monthly goals and study activities.
C.The key to mastering the art of deep work is to seize every minute to work.
D.Whichever approach, the key is to determine your length of focus time and stick to it.
E.Newport also recommends “deep scheduling” to combat interruptions and get more done.
F.To make the most of focus, we also need to embrace downtime, or as suggested, “be lazy.”
G.When our brains switch between being focused and unfocused they will be more efficient.
Passage 8
Why Are Keyboards QWERTY?
If you have ever wondered why the letters on your keyboard are in the order that they are, you can thank American history. In 1868, an inventor patented the first commercially sold typewriter. 1 During the years, he edited the arrangement of the letters in each row. Finally, in 1874, he unveiled what we now know as the QWERTY keyboard.
There are several theories as to why the keys were arranged this way. One popular theory is that it helped prevent typewriters from jamming. In early machines, hitting two nearby keys at the same time could easily cause the mechanical arms to get stuck. 2 That slowed down the fast typing slightly, making the machine work more smoothly.
Is QWERTY really the best arrangement of letters for quick typing? Many people think not. 3 Developed by an American psychologist in the 1930s, this alternative rearranges the order of letters on the “home row”, where your fingers typically rest. It hosts a vowel-heavy arrangement to encourage the writer to use different fingers for quicker typing.
4 However, QWERTY has always remained the standard globally. Perhaps humankind’s fondness for routine is the main reason. Once a habit is formed, it becomes extremely difficult for people to change. This traditional habit is sometimes called “the inertia of natural habits”. 5
A.This change was welcome to advanced typists.
B.This was a new and exciting way to write at that time.
C.Sometimes we need extra effort to get rid of such habits
D.Thus the layout remains although we now type on electronic screens.
E.Over the years, many other excellent keyboard layouts have come along.
F.Among the handful of new layouts, the Dvorak keyboard is very popular.
G.To fix this annoying issue, the inventor decided to separate popular letters.
Passage 9
You are probably fascinated by incredible competitions like the World Cup. Beyond goals and victories, this got us wondering: Why do some competitions make people feel so happy while others don’t? And how can competition benefit our overall well-being? It turns out that researchers have a lot to say about competition, especially at work.
1 Inter-team competition, for example, tends to unite individuals into a community with a shared goal. Victory depends on supporting one another, pushing teammates to improve and achieve more than they are alone. In the working world, we call this “coopetition” (cooperative competition), which can create an environment where friendly competitors can help each other grow. 2
Coopetition differs from zero-sum thinking, the belief that one person’s gain must come from another person’s loss, which does not allow for a bigger pie. 3 Such competition leads to envy, creating a sense of loneliness and insecurity. It also causes fear of losing, which in turn leads to status anxiety and long-term stress.
So how do we bring the magic of coopetition into everyday life? 4 First, a culture of trust — where support is rewarded rather than taken advantage of. Second, positive-sum thinking — where every victory grows the pie for everyone. This means that every win benefits the community. 5
Picture people high-fiving after mutual support, rather than working against others. That’s World Cup level happiness rooted in belonging, not burnout.
A.Competition often creates pressure and anxiety.
B.Coopetition works only with two key ingredients.
C.Competition has a way of bringing people together.
D.It improves work quality as they’re in the same boat.
E.One person’s success comes at the expense of others.
F.It is equally important to root for your share of the pie.
G.It increases the size of the pie without taking from others.
Passage 10
For years, doctors have dismissed multivitamins as a waste of money, claiming they only produce “expensive urine”. However, emerging evidence suggests that these supplements (补充物) may actually benefit certain groups of people. 1
In 2001, researchers from America’s National Institutes of Health studied over 3,500 people with age-related macular degeneration, a common cause of vision loss in older adults. Participants received high doses of vitamins C and E, zinc and beta carotene. 2 They were the first proof that supplements could truly help.
Since then, further research has pointed to additional advantages. A 2022 study involving more than 5,000 participants aged 60 and older found that those taking daily multivitamins performed better on memory tests than those taking a placebo (安慰剂). 3 This suggests a potential link between cardiovascular (心血管的) health and cognitive (认知的) benefits.
Not all evidence, however, points in the same direction. Other studies have found no significant cognitive benefits from multivitamin use, leading to ongoing debate among experts. 4 A 2024 review of 84 studies concluded that while multivitamins may offer some protection against cognitive decline, the effect is modest and varies greatly across populations.
Given the mixed results, experts recommend a cautious approach. 5 However, certain populations, such as older adults or those with limited diets, may benefit. For those who do choose to take them, consulting a healthcare provider is essential to avoiding potential risks from excessive intake.
A.It challenges the common belief about multivitamins.
B.The benefit was most obvious in those with heart disease.
C.Lacking consistent results makes firm conclusions difficult.
D.The findings showed a 25% reduction in advanced disease risk.
E.Doctors now recommend daily multivitamins for all older adults.
F.Vitamin overuse may cause serious health problems to some people.
G.They advise healthy individuals with a balanced diet need no supplements.
Passage 11
Enter Artificial Intelligence (AI), a powerhouse of innovation in the fitness universe. AI is not just a buzzword; it’s a game-changer ready to revolutionize our exercise routines. Imagine a trainer who knows your body better than you do. It adapts your workout plan instantly, using your performance, mood, and energy as guides. 1 it’s the reality that AI is bringing to our gym floors and living rooms.
The journey of technology in the fitness industry began with basic tracking devices. 2 : think of basic pedometers (计步器) and heart rate monitors in the early days. These devices were revolutionary then, providing athletes with crucial workout data.
3 Among them, the real game changer was the introduction of AI, which began to make its mark in the early 2000s. This era saw more advanced devices and software that learned from user data to give personalized workout and health tips.
A significant milestone came with AI-powered fitness apps and wearables that could track health metrics (指标) like steps, sleep patterns, and stress levels. These tools gathered data and interpreted it to provide users with insights on progress.
Another critical development was the introduction of virtual personal trainers. Powered by AI, these trainers could adapt workouts in real time, pushing users when they detected higher energy levels or lowering the intensity when necessary. 4 .
The journey is a tale of innovation and evolution. Today, AI in digital fitness has reached a new level. It can predict injuries by analyzing movement patterns. It also recommends exercises to prevent them. 5 . This progression, from simple tracking to predictive coaching, shows AI’s impact on fitness. It has turned the industry into one that is more interactive, personalized, and safer.

Passage 12
How to Stay Focused When You Study
You sit down with your books, ready to study, and ten minutes later you are checking your phone again. Sounds familiar? Staying focused is one of the biggest challenges for students. The good news is that focus is a skill, and like any skill, it can be trained. 1
First, make a clear plan for each study session. Instead of saying “I will study English tonight”, decide in advance what exactly you will do: review ten new words, read one passage, or finish five grammar exercises. 2 It also gives you a sense of achievement when you check off each task.
Second, control your environment. Put your phone in another room or turn it off while studying. Many students believe they can resist the pull of a buzzing phone, but research shows that even the sight of a phone can reduce attention. 3 A tidy desk with only your materials on it helps too.
Third, work in short blocks with breaks. A common method is to study for twenty-five minutes and then take a five-minute break. 4 During the break, stand up, stretch or look out of the window instead of picking up your phone again.
Finally, accept that your mind will wander. It is natural for attention to drift, especially when a task is difficult. The key is not to fight it but to notice it and gently bring yourself back. 5 With practice, your “focus muscle” grows stronger, and studying becomes less tiring.
A.Make sure to keep the phone out of sight.
B.Here are some practical tips to help you improve it.
C.This clear goal makes it easier to start and to stay on track.
D.Each time you catch yourself drifting, start the task again calmly.
E.Longer blocks work better for some students, and that is fine too.
F.Do not study in the same place where you usually watch videos.
G.Rewarding yourself after a long session can also keep you motivated.
Passage 13
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。
How to build better reading habits
Many people wish to read more books, but they always find it hard to stick to reading. 1 If you want to develop a lasting reading habit, the following advice may work for you.
First, stop setting unrealistic goals. Some people decide to finish one book every week. 2 Instead, you may start with 15‑20 minutes of reading every single day. Small daily reading is far better than a long one‑time reading activity on weekends.
Second, choose books that truly interest you, not only the books recommended by other people. 3 If the book makes you sleepy and bored after several chapters, just put it aside. There is no shame in giving up a book you do not enjoy.
Third, create a fixed reading time in your daily schedule. 4 For example, you can read a few pages right before you go to bed each night, or read for a while on your way on public transport. Gradually your brain will get used to this routine.
Finally, reduce your screen time. Smartphones are our biggest distraction. When you intend to read, keep your mobile phone in another room. 5 In this way you can focus your attention on the pages of your book.
A.That target is often too heavy for beginners.
B.It is necessary to buy as many books as possible.
C.They start enthusiastically but give up soon afterwards.
D.Try to form a regular reading routine at the same time each day.
E.You do not have to force yourself to read popular books you dislike.
F.You should share your reading experience on social media every day.
G.You can also turn off all notifications on your phone.
Passage 14
Have you ever seen a duck gracefully floating on a pond? While it appears peaceful above the water, its feet are paddling fast to stay afloat underneath. This contrast illustrates “floating duck syndrome”, a term that describes the tendency for people to mask their internal stress and struggles behind an appearance of outward success and calm.
1 Just like ducks, they attempt to present an image of accomplishment while struggling with internal stress. Underneath the calm appearance, there is anxiety, self-doubt, and the persistent pursuit of achievement. This is a struggle hidden from casual observation but keenly felt by those who experience it firsthand.
Modern life demands the constant need to hand responsibilities across school, work, family, and leisure. Therefore, individuals try to be outstanding in multiple areas while covering up their struggles, leading to their hard work and suffering going unnoticed. 2 . Through this disconnection between perception and reality, the pressure to appear effortlessly successful becomes obvious. When we underestimate the challenges of success, we find ourselves stretched thin across a large number of tasks. 3 Although this strategy might have short-term successes, it ultimately leaves us with many unmet expectations.
Floating duck syndrome can have concerning impacts on our well-being and connectedness. 4 . This internalization of struggle not only adds weight to our burdens but also separates us from potential sources of support. We may cheat ourselves into believing that we must deal with our challenges alone, without needing help from others. This only makes it harder to cope effectively and denies us the opportunity to connect genuinely with others.
The idea of easy success hides a deeper truth. 5 By accepting our weakness and acknowledging these efforts, we promote a culture of openness and care — one where seeking help is not viewed as a sign of weakness, but rather as a courageous step forward.
A.It is like jugglers (杂技演员) trying to keep several balls in the air at once.
B.To keep a capable appearance, we may hide the stress from public view.
C.True achievements often require us to accept the hard work behind them.
D.So we usually mistakenly believe that achievements come easily to others.
E.These findings highlight our tendency to cover up visible signs of struggle.
F.Floating duck syndrome is particularly common among high-achieving people.
G.We may feel pressured to present an outward image of competence and strength.
Passage 15
Efficiency optimises (优化) performance. But connection transforms people. A team can be perfectly scheduled, highly productive, and still unable to share what really matters.
1 But here’s what I keep noticing: While we are getting better at moving fast, we are not always getting better at being close.
A train arriving exactly at 8:02 is a measurable success. But what isn’t measured? The conversation on the platform, the pause to help someone with their suitcase, and the eye contact 2 It takes time. It interrupts the schedule. But it’s the very thing that makes the journey human.
The Swiss railways reported something beautiful — connection punctuality (准时率) reached 98.9%. Maybe there is a deeper metaphor, which is not about whether the train was perfectly punctual, but about whether people made the connection. 3 Who did I really notice today? Where did I slow down long enough to listen? When did I choose presence over productivity? Efficiency should serve connection, not replace it. Because a perfectly timed life that misses the people in front of you is still a missed connection.
Before your next meeting or transition, pause for 30 seconds. Look up. 4 Ask one real question. Connection doesn’t need more time — it needs more presence; let one moment run over. Choose one interaction a day where you don’t rush. Stay a little longer. Efficiency can survive this. Relationship needs it. Finally, measure what can’t be optimised. At the end of the day, ask: “Where did I choose presence over pace? When did I let myself be human?”
Efficiency is important — it keeps things moving. 5
A.Make eye contact.
B.Efficiency feels right.
C.Connection is inefficient.
D.Efficiency’s victory raises questions.
E.But connection tells us why it matters.
F.What if we measured our days like this instead?
G.However, connection comes at the cost of flexibility.
