This is what I have to face every day. So I wasn't upset. I' ve stuttered since I was three years old. In my case, stuttering usually shows itself in terms of repetitions:“My name is S-S-S-S-Samuel.” Instead of being unhappy about the experience at the networking event, I felt proud that I'd brought up my stuttering. But I wasn't always so forthcoming about it. When I was growing up, I hardly spoke. Whether it was at school or at work, I avoided most social situations out of embarrassment and fear of being laughed at. But things became different after I attended the National Stuttering Association meeting, the largest gathering of stutterers worldwide. It was the first time I'd met so many other professionals who stutter —— lawyers, doctors, actors, etc.———— all in one place. To my surprise, everyone spoke without fear or embarrassment. In fact, they were proud. Stuttering was celebrated. That was when Ifirst realized that stuttering isn't something to be ashamed of. It's just something I happen to do, and that's okay. The change didn't happen overnight, but over the last eight years, I' ve started to bring up my stuttering more. I' ve talked to friends and co-workers. I' ve mentioned it in every organization I' ve worked for. And when I talk about it with others, it encourages them to open up, too. My stuttering has allowed me to connect with others and develop stronger ties with them. Don't get me wrong. It's still frustrating when I know exactly what I want to say but I just can't seem to get the words out of my mouth. But today I don't let my stuttering hold me back. Instead, I let it push me forward and help me make progress. 21. By saying“I wasn't always so forthcoming about it”, the author means . A. he was once an outgoing person B. he regretted talking about his stuttering C. he used to avoid opening up about his stuttering D. he was unwilling to receive comments on his speech 22. How did the National Stuttering Association meeting influence the author? A. He began to make friends with stutterers. B. He learned some skills at stopping stuttering there. C. It made him focus his attention on good comments. D. The confident stutterers changed his attitude to stuttering. 23. What happened after the author started bringing up his stuttering? A. He has improved his work performance. B. He became popular among his co-workers. C. He learned to express himself with simple words. D. He was able to build a close relationship with others. 24. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. The power of accepting my stutter. B. The challenge from normal people. C. Special ways to live with stuttering. D. My experience of overcoming stuttering. B Greenland is the place on land that is closest to the North Pole in the world. Attracted by the beautiful icy scenery, the number of tourists visiting the country increased by 46% between 2018 and2023. Meanwhile on the opposite side of the planet, Antarctica is seeing a similar tourism increase. TheInternational Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) reports a steady rise in visitors since the 1990s————a dire tourism phenomenon for environmentalists who warn that humans can destroy fragile(脆弱的) ecosystems, influence animal behaviour and bring non-native species with them. The attraction of the polar regions is obvious: the strength of the blue sky on a freezing, sunny day;the excitement of walking on fresh snow; and the unique wildlife that calls these places home. However,as tourism to the poles increases, organisations like the Arctic Council and Visit Greenland stress the need to balance economic benefits with environmental responsibility. James Grecian, an oceanic ecologist, has spent years studying polar wildlife. Last year, he was inAntarctica studying snow petrels(雪鹱)———— or more specifically, their vomit(呕吐物). Snow petrels have stomach oil that turns into solid pieces. When scientists study these pieces, they can learn how the petrels’ diet has changed over the years and what that means for the local ecosystem. Grecian explains that by taking samples from the environment or animals, we can learn a lot about past conditions. For example, scientists can collect baleen plates (鲸须板) from dead whales to see what the whales ate and where they lived. Grecian knows how special these places are and how much they are affected. He believes we should act to help protect these important but threatened areas. Polar tourism is growing, but he hopes that with more awareness of its problems, visitors can make better choices. 25. What does the underlined word“dire” in paragraph 1 mean? A. Amazing. B. Alarming. C. Confusing. D. Misleading. 26. Why does the author mention baleen plates in paragraph 3? A. To explain whale protection practice. B. To share an exploring experience. C. To describe the appearance of whales. D. To show how scientists gather information. 27. Which will Grecian probably agree with? A. Polar tourism should be encouraged. B. Scientists should be more aware of the problems. C. Visitors should be more environmentally responsible. D. Climate change is to blame for the negative changes. 28. What is the most suitable title for the text? A. Polar Regions: Beauty and the Wild B. Polar Tour: Popularity and Development C. Polar Tourism: Growth and Concerns D. Polar Wildlife: Protection and Challenges C For a long time, psychologists believed in“catharsis theory,” or the idea that it's better to release negative emotions than hold onto them. But back in 2002, Brad Bushman, a professor of communication at the Ohio State University, published a study that questioned that logic, saying that venting(发泄)“is the worst thing you can do” when you’ re mad and it's“adding more fuel to the fire.” Focusing on a frustrating conversation can blow out of proportion relatively minor annoyances,which is unhealthy, says Jesse Coughle, a psychology professor studying anger at Florida StateUniversity. The problem is that when you' re furious (愤怒的), it feels better to shout angrily than it does to take some centering deep breaths. Bushman has seen that in his research. Even though activities like hitting a punching bag don't actually lessen anger,“75% of people report feeling better” after they do it,he says. The same is often true for venting to a friend. It feels great to have someone support your perspective. Can something that feels so good really be so wrong? Bushman says it's not always a bad thing to get something off your chest. Talking through a negative feeling with the goal of understanding why something bothered you and how to better respond in the future, such as with a therapist, can be beneficial, he says. But venting becomes less helpful, Coughle says, when it's mean-spirited———— when you repeat the same thing you' ve done many times, keeping yourself stuck in that past anger without trying to move past it. When you feel yourself getting stuck in the trap of venting, look for healthier coping strategies. If yoga and meditation aren't your thing, try a quick shift in perspective. Bushman's research supports the“fly-on-the-wall” technique, which challenges angry people to imagine themselves as a third party observing the situation that made them angry. And finally, don't underestimate the impact of anger————that is, getting angry when you' re hungry. Science suggests it's a real phenomenon. So next time you feel yourself gearing up for a venting session, think of grabbing a snack and taking a few deep breaths instead. 29. What is the traditional belief of venting? A. Nothing can be worse than venting. B. Venting may lead to worse emotions. C. Letting anger out always works well. D. Releasing negative feelings is logical. 30. What does the underlined word“that” in paragraph 3 refer to? A. The problem of venting while angry. B. The benefit of taking some deep breaths. C. The temporary relief from venting anger. D. The lessened anger after hitting something. 31. Why is the“fly-on-the-wall” technique mentioned in paragraph 5? A. To challenge angry people. B. To replace yoga and meditation. C. To illustrate change in perspective. D. To observe the situation as a third party. 32. What is the passage mainly about? A. The psychological risk of venting and its influence. B. The harm of venting anger and its coping techniques. C. The science of hunger-related anger and its solutions. D. The development of catharsis theory and its modern debates. 第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 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。Safer Internet Day is a yearly event in which Internet companies, charities, and schools team up to talkabout how young people can stay safe online. 33 This year's event is on 8 February. 34 And it will focus on respect and relationships in games, social apps, and anywhere else that people spend time online.

Nora and Mia, two close friends with a shared passion for nature, naturally teamed up. Aiming for a good grade, they began co-tending(共同照顾) to a rare“Moonlight Orchid” in the school greenhouse.It was a delicate flower that required strict temperature control and precise watering. They shared the duties perfectly. Nora would prune(修剪) the plant with scissors and check the soil moisture(湿度), while Mia would spray water over its petals and ensure the heater maintained a constant warmth. On a freezing Saturday night, Mia was supposed to check the greenhouse heater. Unfortunately,Mia's younger brother suddenly developed a dangerously high fever and struggled to breathe. Panicked and busy helping her mother, Mia completely forgot about the greenhouse and failed to message Nora.When Nora arrived on Sunday morning, she was greeted by a tragic sight. The heater had stopped working, and the sharp drop in temperature had left the orchid's leaves curled and its stems drooping. Minutes later, Mia rushed in, her eyes red from a sleepless night in the hospital. Before Mia could explain, Nora exploded,“How could you be so irresponsible? You ruined everything we' ve worked for!”Hurt by Nora's mean words, Mia cried,“My brother was in the emergency room! Not everything is about this plant, Nora!” Mia turned and ran out of the greenhouse. For the next few days, a heavy atmosphere hung between them. They avoided each other in the hallways. Nora spent every day alone in the greenhouse, struggling to revive(使复活) the orchid, but the recovery process was simply too much for one pair of hands. The presentation was only a week away, and the weight of the work, coupled with the guilt of her outburst(爆发), made Nora feel entirely overwhelmed(难以承受的). 注意：续写词数应为150左右。 Paragraph 1: As Nora was sitting helplessly in the greenhouse, the door was pulled open. Paragraph 2: On presentation day, they carefully carried their orchid to the front of the class. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
