Six years ago, I was trapped in a heart-breaking office job in Edinburgh. Each day I left early in the morning while my family slept, and returned with just enough time to say good night to my little boys. We loved our home but could not afford it. To break free from this tiring trap, I made a risky plan: I gave up my job and turned to the wilderness of Alaska. This madness was inspired by my discovery of Walden by Henry David Thoreau, who had returned to nature in search of a simpler life in the 1840s. His philosophy was the inspiration I needed. In Alaska, despite facing extreme cold and hunger, I lived in a small wooden hut and finally achieved my dream. A year later, though unemployed, I felt internally rich.
Recently, I made a journey to Walden Pond in Massachusetts, the very lake that inspired Thoreau. I was worried that modern changes would damage my romantic vision of the place. My heart indeed dropped when the GPS system directed me to an orderly, tarmac (沥青铺的) car park, and a sign saying no woodfires. The presence of joggers and tourists threatened to ruin my sense of personal discovery. For a moment, I even regretted coming.
But then a fish jumped, creating widening circles across the water. I reached up, pulled some green needles from a pine tree, and pressed them between my fingers, catching their clean smell. I realized that while the surface world had sped up, the necessary, slow forces of nature remained unchanged. There was still space to feel what had inspired Thoreau.
My trip was worth the risk. Most of us will never have enough money, but nature offers limitless wealth to fill our spiritual banks.
4. What made the author decide to leave his job?
A. Spiritual crisis. B. Wild adventure. C. Financial stress. D. Family tension.
5. What does the underlined word “internally” in paragraph 1 probably mean?
A. Fully. B. Mentally. C. Colorfully. D. Terribly.
6. Why did the author regret coming to Walden Pond at first?
A. He disliked the local rules. B. Woodfires were not allowed.
C. He was tired of meeting tourists. D. The place lost its natural wilderness.
7. What does the author try to convey in the text?
A. Hard work leads to success.
B. Dreams demand brave pursuits.
C. Nature offers spiritual wealth.
D. True joy comes from a simple life.
C
For lots of kids, toddlerhood (幼儿期) is an important time for friendship. Studies show the earlier kids learn to form positive relationships, the better they are at relating to others as teenagers and adults. Playing together also helps these kids practice social behaviors, such as kindness, sharing, and cooperation.
Even so, how quickly your child develops into a social creature may also depend on his temperament (性格). Some toddlers are very social, but others are shy. In addition, the way that toddlers demonstrate that they like other children is obviously different from what adults think of as expressions of friendship. Research at Ohio State University in Columbus found that a toddler’s way of saying “I like you” during play is likely to come in the form of copying a friend’s behavior.
This seemingly unusual way of demonstrating fondness can result in unpleasant behavior. No matter how much they like a playmate, they may still grab his toys, refuse to share, and get bossy. But experts say that this is a normal and necessary part of friendship for kids this age. Through play experiences, toddlers learn social rules. That’s why it’s so important to take an active role in your toddler’s social encounters by setting limits and offering frequent reminders of what they are. When you establish these guidelines, explain the reasons behind them.
Begin by helping your child learn sympathy (“Ben is crying. What’s making him so sad?”), and then suggest how he could resolve the problem (“Maybe he would feel better if you let him play the ball.”). When your child shares or shows empathy (同理心) toward a friend, praise him (“Ben stopped crying! You made him feel better.”).
Another way to encourage healthy social interaction is by encouraging kids to use words — not fists — to express how they feel. It’s also important to be mindful of how your child’s personality affects playtime. Kids are easy to get angry when they’re sleepy or hungry, so schedule playtime when they’re refreshed.
8. What does it indicate when toddlers copy their playmates’ behavior?
A. They want to lead the play.
B. They are too shy to express themselves.
C. They are fond of their playmates.
D. They are competing against each other.
9. What does the author suggest parents do for their kids?
A. Design games for them. B. Find them suitable playmates.
C. Play together with them. D. Help them understand social rules.
10. What is the function of the quoted (引用的) statements in paragraph 4?
A. Giving examples. B. Explaining concepts.
C. Providing evidence. D. Making comparisons.
11. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. How Children Adapt to Changes
B. How to Be a Role Model for Children
C. How Toddlers Learn Social Skills
D. How to Communicate with Your Kid
D
Expert birdwatchers have changes in their brain structure (结构) compared with beginners, which probably help them better identify birds and slow age-related cognitive (认知的) loss.
When learning or practising a skill, the brain reorganises itself. This ability is called neuroplasticity. For example, professional musicians show structural changes in brain regions related to hearing.
To understand whether birding also shapes the brain, Erik Wing at York University in Canada and his colleagues analysed brain structure and function in 48 hobbyist birders, half experts and half beginners. They were aged 22 to 79 and both groups were similar in terms of sex, age and education. During brain scans (扫描), the birders were shown a bird image for less than 4 seconds. About 10 seconds later, they tried identifying the same bird in one of four images, each showing a different species. “We intentionally picked highly confusable bird species,” said Wing. The task was repeated 72 times, using images of 18 bird species, six of which were local and 12 of which weren’t.
As expected, expert birders performed better. On average, they correctly identified 83% of local birds and 61% of non-local ones. In contrast, beginners got only 44% correct for both. While identifying non-local birds, three brain regions became more active in expert birders, but not in beginners. These regions are related to object identification, image processing, attention and working memory. Moreover, these brain regions appeared more structurally complex (复杂的) and organised in expert birdwatchers, suggesting building expertise in birding reshapes the brain.
As we age, brain structure normally becomes less complex. But this change was less noticeable in expert birders, suggesting birding may help build cognitive reserve, the brain’s ability to protect itself against ageing and adapt to damage. “Maintaining brain activity with specialised abilities may reduce the effects of ageing,” said Robert Zatorre at McGill University in Canada. However, to really know whether the brain changes are due to birding, researchers would have to scan the brain over months to years.
12. Why does the author mention professional musicians?
A. To talk about different life skills. B. To illustrate the idea of neuroplasticity.
C. To show musicians’ great talent. D. To compare music with birdwatching.
13. What made it hard for the birders to identify the birds in the task?
A. Much repetition of the task itself.
B. Inclusion of more non-local birds.
C. Close similarity among bird species.
D. Improper timing for image viewing.
14. What did the brain scans find about expert birders?
A. No brain changes related to ageing.
B. Quicker brain responses to local birds.
C. The same complexity of the brain as beginners’.
D. Greater activity and finer organization of the brain.
15. What is the author’s attitude towards the findings?
A. Fair. B. Supportive. C. Doubtful. D. Unclear.

We often miss life’s small blessings because they seem too minor to matter. The common saying goes, “Stop making a big deal out of little things.” But what if we did the opposite? ____16____
That is what micro gratitude means. ____17____ For example, the warm drink you enjoy every morning, or the comfortable bed you sleep in every night.

____19____ First, find small positive moments on your calendar. Second, slow down and notice what’s around you. Third, look at familiar things as if for the first time.
The greatest benefit of micro gratitude is that it brings us back to the present. It helps us enjoy what we have now. ____20____ It frees us from worrying about the future. By practicing micro gratitude, we realize we have much more to be thankful for than we ever knew.
A. Why do we miss these little gifts?
B. It stops us from regretting the past.
C. To develop this habit, try the following.
D. What if we only cared about big events in life?

Six years ago, I was trapped in a heart-breaking office job in Edinburgh. Each day I left early in the morning while my family slept, and returned with just enough time to say good night to my little boys. We loved our home but could not afford it. To break free from this tiring trap, I made a risky plan: I gave up my job and turned to the wilderness of Alaska. This madness was inspired by my discovery of Walden by Henry David Thoreau, who had returned to nature in search of a simpler life in the 1840s. His philosophy was the inspiration I needed. In Alaska, despite facing extreme cold and hunger, I lived in a small wooden hut and finally achieved my dream. A year later, though unemployed, I felt internally rich.
Recently, I made a journey to Walden Pond in Massachusetts, the very lake that inspired Thoreau. I was worried that modern changes would damage my romantic vision of the place. My heart indeed dropped when the GPS system directed me to an orderly, tarmac (沥青铺的) car park, and a sign saying no woodfires. The presence of joggers and tourists threatened to ruin my sense of personal discovery. For a moment, I even regretted coming.
But then a fish jumped, creating widening circles across the water. I reached up, pulled some green needles from a pine tree, and pressed them between my fingers, catching their clean smell. I realized that while the surface world had sped up, the necessary, slow forces of nature remained unchanged. There was still space to feel what had inspired Thoreau.
My trip was worth the risk. Most of us will never have enough money, but nature offers limitless wealth to fill our spiritual banks.

【导语】文章主要讲述了作者受梭罗影响辞职赴阿拉斯加,后探访瓦尔登湖感悟自然精神财富的经历。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“Six years ago, I was trapped in a heart-breaking office job in Edinburgh. Each day I left early in the morning while my family slept, and returned with just enough time to say good night to my little boys. We loved our home but could not afford it. To break free from this tiring trap, I made a risky plan: I gave up my job and turned to the wilderness of Alaska. This madness was inspired by my discovery of Walden by Henry David Thoreau, who had returned to nature in search of a simpler life in the 1840s. His philosophy was the inspiration I needed. In Alaska, despite facing extreme cold and hunger, I lived in a small wooden hut and finally achieved my dream. A year later, though unemployed, I felt internally rich.(六年前,我被困在爱丁堡一份令人心碎的办公室工作中。每天清晨,当家人还在熟睡时,我便早早离开,回来时只留有足够的时间和小儿子们道晚安。我们热爱自己的家,却负担不起它。为了摆脱这个疲惫的束缚,我做出了一项冒险的决定:辞去工作,前往阿拉斯加的荒野。这个疯狂的想法源于我读到亨利·戴维·梭罗的《瓦尔登湖》。19世纪40年代,他重返自然,追寻一种更简单的生活。他的哲学思想正是我内心所需的精神启迪。在阿拉斯加,尽管面临极端的寒冷与饥饿,我住在一间简陋的小木屋里,终于实现了梦想。一年后,虽然失业了,但我内心却感到无比富足)”和最后一段“My trip was worth the risk. Most of us will never have enough money, but nature offers limitless wealth to fill our spiritual banks.(我的旅程是值得冒这个险的。我们大多数人永远都不会有足够的钱,但大自然却提供了无限的财富,足以填满我们的精神账户)”可知,精神危机促使作者决定辞职。
【5题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第一段中“A year later, though unemployed, I felt internally rich.(一年后,尽管失业,我却感到internally丰盈)”可知,此处与物质上的“失业”形成对比,指精神上的富足,“internally”意为“精神上地”。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“I was worried that modern changes would damage my romantic vision of the place.(我担心现代变迁会破坏我对这处地方的浪漫想象)”及“My heart indeed dropped when the GPS system directed me to an orderly, tarmac (沥青铺的) car park, and a sign saying no woodfires.(当GPS导航把我引到一个规整的沥青铺就的停车场,还立着一块“禁止篝火”的牌子时,我的心一下子凉了半截)”可知,作者起初后悔是因为瓦尔登湖失去了原本的自然野趣。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Most of us will never have enough money, but nature offers limitless wealth to fill our spiritual banks.(我们大多数人永远不会有足够的钱,但自然提供了无限的财富来充实我们的精神账户)”可知,作者试图传达自然能提供精神财富的哲理。

For lots of kids, toddlerhood (幼儿期) is an important time for friendship. Studies show the earlier kids learn to form positive relationships, the better they are at relating to others as teenagers and adults. Playing together also helps these kids practice social behaviors, such as kindness, sharing, and cooperation.
Even so, how quickly your child develops into a social creature may also depend on his temperament (性格). Some toddlers are very social, but others are shy. In addition, the way that toddlers demonstrate that they like other children is obviously different from what adults think of as expressions of friendship. Research at Ohio State University in Columbus found that a toddler’s way of saying “I like you” during play is likely to come in the form of copying a friend’s behavior.
This seemingly unusual way of demonstrating fondness can result in unpleasant behavior. No matter how much they like a playmate, they may still grab his toys, refuse to share, and get bossy. But experts say that this is a normal and necessary part of friendship for kids this age. Through play experiences, toddlers learn social rules. That’s why it’s so important to take an active role in your toddler’s social encounters by setting limits and offering frequent reminders of what they are. When you establish these guidelines, explain the reasons behind them.
Begin by helping your child learn sympathy (“Ben is crying. What’s making him so sad?”), and then suggest how he could resolve the problem (“Maybe he would feel better if you let him play the ball.”). When your child shares or shows empathy (同理心) toward a friend, praise him (“Ben stopped crying! You made him feel better.”).
Another way to encourage healthy social interaction is by encouraging kids to use words — not fists — to express how they feel. It’s also important to be mindful of how your child’s personality affects playtime. Kids are easy to get angry when they’re sleepy or hungry, so schedule playtime when they’re refreshed.
8. What does it indicate when toddlers copy their playmates’ behavior?
A. They want to lead the play.
B. They are too shy to express themselves.
C. They are fond of their playmates.
D. They are competing against each other.
9. What does the author suggest parents do for their kids?
A. Design games for them. B. Find them suitable playmates.
C. Play together with them. D. Help them understand social rules.
10. What is the function of the quoted (引用的) statements in paragraph 4?
A. Giving examples. B. Explaining concepts.
C. Providing evidence. D. Making comparisons.
11. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. How Children Adapt to Changes
B. How to Be a Role Model for Children
C. How Toddlers Learn Social Skills
D. How to Communicate with Your Kid
【答案】8. C 9. D 10. A 11. C
【解析】
【导语】主要介绍幼儿期是建立友谊与社交能力的关键时期,讲解幼儿独特的交友方式及家长引导孩子学习社交技巧的方法。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Research at Ohio State University in Columbus found that a toddler’s way of saying “I like you” during play is likely to come in the form of copying a friend’s behavior.(哥伦布市俄亥俄州立大学的研究发现,幼儿在玩耍时表达“我喜欢你”的方式,往往是模仿玩伴的行为。)”可知,幼儿模仿玩伴行为,代表他们喜欢自己的玩伴。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Through play experiences, toddlers learn social rules. That’s why it’s so important to take an active role in your toddler’s social encounters by setting limits and offering frequent reminders of what they are.(幼儿在玩耍中学习社交规则,因此家长要在孩子社交活动中主动介入,设立界限并时常提醒孩子社交规则。)”可知,作者建议家长帮助孩子理解并学会遵守社交规则。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Begin by helping your child learn sympathy (“Ben is crying. What’s making him so sad?”), and then suggest how he could resolve the problem (“Maybe he would feel better if you let him play the ball.”).(先帮孩子学会同情(“本在哭呢,是什么事让他这么难过呀?”),再引导孩子想出解决办法(“要是你把球借他玩,说不定他就好受多了。”)。)”可知,本段引用的语句是为家长提供具体沟通示例,用来举例说明如何引导孩子。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是第一段中的“Playing together also helps these kids practice social behaviors, such as kindness, sharing, and cooperation.(一起玩耍有助于幼儿练习友善、分享、合作等社交行为。)”以及后文介绍幼儿交友特点、家长引导方法可知,文章围绕幼儿如何学习社交技巧展开论述,适合作为标题的是“幼儿如何学习社交技能”。

Expert birdwatchers have changes in their brain structure (结构) compared with beginners, which probably help them better identify birds and slow age-related cognitive (认知的) loss.
When learning or practising a skill, the brain reorganises itself. This ability is called neuroplasticity. For example, professional musicians show structural changes in brain regions related to hearing.
To understand whether birding also shapes the brain, Erik Wing at York University in Canada and his colleagues analysed brain structure and function in 48 hobbyist birders, half experts and half beginners. They were aged 22 to 79 and both groups were similar in terms of sex, age and education. During brain scans (扫描), the birders were shown a bird image for less than 4 seconds. About 10 seconds later, they tried identifying the same bird in one of four images, each showing a different species. “We intentionally picked highly confusable bird species,” said Wing. The task was repeated 72 times, using images of 18 bird species, six of which were local and 12 of which weren’t.
As expected, expert birders performed better. On average, they correctly identified 83% of local birds and 61% of non-local ones. In contrast, beginners got only 44% correct for both. While identifying non-local birds, three brain regions became more active in expert birders, but not in beginners. These regions are related to object identification, image processing, attention and working memory. Moreover, these brain regions appeared more structurally complex (复杂的) and organised in expert birdwatchers, suggesting building expertise in birding reshapes the brain.
As we age, brain structure normally becomes less complex. But this change was less noticeable in expert birders, suggesting birding may help build cognitive reserve, the brain’s ability to protect itself against ageing and adapt to damage. “Maintaining brain activity with specialised abilities may reduce the effects of ageing,” said Robert Zatorre at McGill University in Canada. However, to really know whether the brain changes are due to birding, researchers would have to scan the brain over months to years.
12. Why does the author mention professional musicians?
A. To talk about different life skills. B. To illustrate the idea of neuroplasticity.
C. To show musicians’ great talent. D. To compare music with birdwatching.
13. What made it hard for the birders to identify the birds in the task?
A. Much repetition of the task itself.
B. Inclusion of more non-local birds.
C. Close similarity among bird species.
D. Improper timing for image viewing.
14. What did the brain scans find about expert birders?
A. No brain changes related to ageing.
B. Quicker brain responses to local birds.
C. The same complexity of the brain as beginners’.
D. Greater activity and finer organization of the brain.
15. What is the author’s attitude towards the findings?
A. Fair. B. Supportive. C. Doubtful. D. Unclear.
【答案】12. B 13. C 14. D 15. A
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了一项关于观鸟对大脑结构影响的研究,探讨了专家级观鸟者与初学者在大脑活动、结构复杂性以及认知老化方面的差异。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。 根据第二段“When learning or practising a skill, the brain reorganises itself. This ability is called neuroplasticity. For example, professional musicians show structural changes in brain regions related to hearing.(当学习或练习一项技能时,大脑会自我重组。这种能力被称为神经可塑性。例如,专业音乐家在与听力相关的大脑区域表现出结构性变化)”可知,作者提到专业音乐家是为了用具体例子说明神经可塑性这一概念。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。 根据第三段““We intentionally picked highly confusable bird species,” said Wing.(“我们有意选择了非常容易混淆的鸟类品种,”Wing说)”可知,使观鸟者在任务中难以识别鸟类的原因是不同鸟类之间的高度相似性。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。 根据第四段“While identifying non-local birds, three brain regions became more active in expert birders, but not in beginners. These regions are related to object identification, image processing, attention and working memory. Moreover, these brain regions appeared more structurally complex and organised in expert birdwatchers.(在识别非本地鸟类时,专家级观鸟者大脑中有三个区域变得更加活跃,而初学者则没有。这些区域与物体识别、图像处理、注意力和工作记忆有关。此外,这些大脑区域在专家级观鸟者中表现出更复杂的结构和更有组织性)”可知,大脑扫描发现专家级观鸟者的大脑活动更强且组织性更好。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。 据最后一段,作者既指出了研究的积极发现——“birding may help build cognitive reserve, the brain’s ability to protect itself against ageing and adapt to damage(观鸟可能有助于建立认知储备,即大脑保护自身免受衰老影响和适应损伤的能力)”,又指出了研究的局限性——“to really know whether the brain changes are due to birding, researchers would have to scan the brain over months to years(要真正了解大脑的变化是否源于观鸟,研究人员还需要对大脑进行数月乃至数年的扫描)”。同时,作者还引用了外部专家Robert Zatorre的观点来支撑研究价值,可知作者既没有过分夸大研究的意义,也没有全盘否定研究的价值,而是客观呈现了研究的正面发现和待完善之处,这种“正反两面都说到”的写法体现了客观公正的态度。

【详解】句意:到目前为止,来自不同社区的志愿者已经为山区的孩子们收集了2000多本书。 时间状语Up to now是现在完成时的标志词,句子主语volunteers是复数,所以助动词用have,collect的过去分词是collected。

按给出的中文意思,用括号内所给的要点提示和英语,翻译下列句子。
46. 当我看到那封信时,我突然意识到我误解了他。(strike; misunderstand)(汉译英)
___________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】When I saw the letter, it struck me that I had misunderstood him.
【解析】
【详解】“当我看到那封信时”处理为when引导的时间状语从句,主语是I,谓语“看见”用动词see,陈述过去发生的事情,用一般过去时态,其过去式为saw,宾语“那封信”用the letter;主句中“某人突然意识到”可译为固定句型It strikes sb that...,谓语strike用过去式struck,that引导主语从句,从句谓语地动词“误解”用动词misunderstand,该动作发生在“突然意识到”这个过去动作之前,属于过去的过去,需用过去完成时,故“误解了他”译为had misunderstood him。
47. 多亏了老师的鼓励,他重拾信心并取得了巨大进步。(thanks to) (汉译英)
___________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Thanks to the teacher’s encouragement, he regained his confidence and made great progress.

___________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】However far apart we are, true friendship will never fade.

【详解】表示“无论我们相隔多远”用让步状语从句however far apart we are,陈述现状用一般现在时;表示“真正的友谊”短语为true friendship,作主语;表示“永远不会褪色”用will never fade,will fade是谓语,never是副词作状语。
49. 她提出的那个建议,将有助于改善我们班级的学习氛围。(which; put forward) (汉译英)
___________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】The suggestion which she put forward will help improve the study atmosphere of our class.

Online Safety Starts with Us
Good morning, everyone. I’m Li Hua. It’s my honor to speak here. The Internet brings us convenience, but it also carries hidden risks. Online safety matters a lot, for our personal information and wealth may be threatened if we are careless.
To stay safe online, we should take some practical measures. First, it’s a good idea not to share our private information such as phone numbers online. Besides, we’d better stay away from doubtful links and refuse strange requests from strangers. Last but not least, once we meet online trouble, we should turn to parents or teachers for help at once.
