B When I feel like something in my life is out of control,I can always depend on the healing qualities of organization to make me feel like I’m regaining power.And this is why I love my wall calendar. In my mid-20s,a friend bought me a calendar to make fun of my near-compulsive need for everything to be organized.I hung it up in the kitchen.I had no idea then that this calendar would change my life.I ended up detailing my entire schedule on that calendar.Every appointment,every out-of-town visitor,every meeting—my whole life was on there.I felt in control;the overwhelming fear of a busy schedule seemed much more manageable with everything written down.So,the following year,I bought myself another calendar. However,when 2025 came,I didn't buy another calendar.I was already using my phone calendar a lot,and I also felt awkward about having my entire life on the wall for my roommates and guests to see.But after a while,I missed the calming habit of writing my entire month out and being able to see how big my schedule was at a glance.I missed my calendar.I felt adrift(茫然的). There's something so soothing,so steadying,about a wall calendar.It never moves;it's always there,organized,and waiting to prove to me that my schedule isn't that overwhelming.Everything is broken up into neatly organized boxes,making everything feel under control.That's why I decided to finally get a calendar again earlier this month.I chose a narrow hanging calendar with big boxes and a calming watercolor design.I wrote every event in the calendar.Then,I hung it up on the wall. Stepping back,looking at the final product of my newly reorganized life,I felt at peace.I could once again merely glance at my wall and know I had a mid-day appointment on Tuesday,a work thing Wednesday night,and finally a meeting with my friend's dog on Thursday evening.It was the same schedule,but it all felt different. 24.Why didn’t the author buy a calendar when 2025 came? A.She feared her friend would make fun of her. B.She thought the calendar made her more stressful. C.She found writing out her month time-consuming. D.She felt uncomfortable with others seeing her schedule. 25.Why did the author feel the same schedule“different”in the last paragraph? A.She had set aside more free time between events. B.The watercolor design made the tasks seem easier. C.Seeing the entire month laid out made her feel in control. D.Her roommates helped her rearrange the appointments. 26.What is the author's attitude toward her wall calendar? A.Enthusiastic. B.Indifferent. C.Objective. D.Doubtful. 27.What is the text mainly about? A.How to efficiently manage a busy schedule. B.How the author's calendar habits changed. C.The advantages of digital calendars over paper ones. D.The author's emotional attachment to the wall calendar. C Researchers in Ireland recently reported that coffee may influence mood through the gut(肠道)-brain link,which is the close connection between digestion and the brain.In a recent study,participants who drank either regular or decaffeinated(decaf,脱咖啡因的)coffee said they felt less stressed and experienced a better mood.These results suggest that coffee's mental effects may not result from caffeine alone. The researchers followed the participants carefully,using questionnaires,diet tracking,and body samples.These checks helped the team examine both mood changes and gut bacteria.During the study,half the group drank caffeinated coffee,while the other half drank decaf. Both groups felt less stressed and less depressed,and they demonstrated better self-control.The team also found higher levels of certain gut bacteria that help digestion and support the immune(免疫的)system.According to the researchers,this pattern strongly supports the idea that coffee may work partly through the gut-brain link,not only through the nervous system. However,the two drinks did not have exactly the same effects;each type offered unique benefits.Decaf coffee was linked to improvements in learning and memory.Meanwhile,caffeinated coffee was associated with lower anxiety,stronger attention,and noticeably less swelling(肿胀)in the body.Researchers now think that regular coffee drinkers may develop a weaker stress response over time.As a result,daily coffee could help some individuals stay calmer under pressure. Still,the study does not mean that drinking more coffee is always better.The researchers point out that two or three cups a day may be a useful range for gaining gut and brain benefits,but too much can easily disturb sleep.Because each person reacts differently to coffee,the right amount can vary from individual to individual.Therefore,moderation(适度)is key,and it is important to pay attention to your own body to find what suits you best. 28.What can we know about the two types of coffee according to the text? A.Caffeinated coffee lowers stress and weakens attention. B.Caffeinated coffee harms digestion and the body's defenses. C.Decaf coffee eases anxiety and improves focus. D.Decaf coffee helps people learn and remember better. 29.What can we learn from the study? A.More caffeine may greatly improve mood: B.Coffee may help ease stress for regular drinkers. C.Only the caffeinated group showed better self-control. D.Coffee may prevent anxiety in most drinkers. 30.What do the researchers suggest? A.Increasing coffee intake to improve focus. B.Avoiding coffee altogether if you have trouble sleeping. C.Drinking coffee in proper amounts each day. D.Drinking different kinds of coffee at different times. 31.What is the author's main purpose in writing the text? A.To explain how coffee may affect mood. B.To compare coffee with other drinks. C.To describe how researchers carried out a study. D.To argue that decaf coffee is healthier than regular coffee. D A removable wireless forehead e-tattoo(电子文身)that reads brainwaves to measure mental strain(压力)without heavy head equipment has been developed,according to a study published May 29 in Device.It may help track the mental pressure on workers like air traffic controllers and truck drivers,whose lapses in focus,such as missing a single warning,can have serious consequences. The e-tattoo offers an objective option by analyzing electrical activity from the brain and eye movement.Unlike heavy wired EEG caps covered with gel(凝胶),the wireless e-tattoo features a lightweight battery pack and paper-thin,sticker-like sensors fitting closely to the skin for clear signals. “Those caps have more sensors for different brain regions but never get a perfect signal because head shapes vary,"says Nanshu Lu,the study's author,from UT Austin.“We measure participants' facial features to produce personalized e-tattoos,ensuring the sensors are always in the right location and receiving signals." The researchers tested the e-tattoo on six participants performing a memory challenge of increasing difficulty.As mental pressure rose,the theta and delta brainwaves increased,signaling greater cognitive demand,while alpha and beta activity decreased,indicating mental tiredness.A computer model trained on e-tattoo signals,successfully told apart different levels of mental pressure,showing potential to predict mental tiredness. Cost is another advantage.Traditional EEG equipment can cost more than $15,000,while the e-tattoo's chips and battery pack cost $200,and single-use sensors are about $20each."Being low cost makes the device accessible,"says author Luis Sentis from UT Austin."I hope to turn the e-tattoo into a home wearable product." Currently limited to hairless skin,the e-tattoo is being combined with ink-based sensors for hairy areas to enable full head coverage and more complete brain monitoring.“We've long monitored workers' physical health,tracking injuries and muscle strain,"says Sentis.“Now we can monitor mental strain.This could fundamentally change how organizations ensure their workforce well-being.” 32.What does the underlined word“lapses”in paragraph 1 mean? A.Improvements. B.Habits. C.Differences. D.Losses. 33.What's the advantage of the e-tattoo compared with traditional EEG caps? A.It collects brain signals more reliably. B.It covers more regions of the brain. C.It operates without a power source. D.It can be applied to hairy skin. 34.What can be inferred about the e-tattoo from Luis Sentis's words? A.It may be able to sense people's emotions. B.It may be used at home by ordinary people. C.It may treat mental problems. D.It may help employers check workers' performance. 35.What can be a suitable title for the text? A.An E-Tattoo to Improve Workers’ Physical Health B.A New Step Toward Low-Cost Brainwave Devices C.An E-Tattoo for Measuring Mental Strain D.A Personalized Wearable Device for Enhancing Memory 第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 How to Respond to an Emotional Text Responding to an emotional text from someone you care about is hard without tone of voice or a comforting presence.Yet a few thoughtful strategies can make a real difference. Listen without judgment. Let them know you're a safe person to talk to.Show them you appreciate their trust and encourage them to share more.Simple phrases like“Thank you for telling me this.”or“ 36 ”can make them feel accepted. 37 Now is not the time to talk about your own problems.Even if you have a lot going on,you can always deal with that in another conversation.It's fine to share if you can relate to what they're going through.For instance,you can say“I felt really upset when my best friend misunderstood me too.I’m here whenever you need to talk."to keep the attention on their needs. Avoid clichés(陈词滥调)。 Using a cliché might make the other person feel like you're not taking their feelings seriously. 38 A personalized response,such as“I can see why that hurt you so deeply,"”shows you are truly paying attention. Offer advice only when asked. Remember,many people just need to feel understood.Always ask before giving advice.For example,you could say,“It sounds like you're unhappy at your job.Would you like some help figuring out the next step?” 39 Follow up with them later. Follow up a day or two later with a quick message or phone call. 40 A simple message like “How are you feeling today?"shows your support doesn't end after one chat.Sincere attention to their feelings,above all,is what truly comforts them. A.Ask how you can help. B.Would you like some advice? C.Can you tell me more about that? D.Keep the conversation centered on them. E.This small action signals that your care is ongoing. F.This respects their feelings while offering practical support. G.Instead,give a thoughtful response that directly fits their situation. 第三部分 语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 One night a few years ago,I caught Mom sitting on the edge of her bed looking out the window.There was a full moon and its light was so 41 that I could see her face clearly.I watched her looking up 42 ,as though she was watching for someone or something Then she 43 me and signal-led to me to sit next to her.I put my arm around her,because for some reason I felt the need to 44 her,"Is everything okay,Mom?You look a little sad."Smiling gently,she 45 me and said,“Yes,I'm fine.I was just thinking about your sisters.I always do that when the moon is full.I hope that they are looking at it too,and it gives me a 46 of connection."I could see tears in her eyes and for the first time I was aware of how much she missed her 47 .I hadn't realized how 48 she was and how much she needed that connection as each of us grew up and moved away.

Yours, Li Hua 第二节(满分25分) 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。 Last summer,I joined a one-week volunteer program at our town's wildlife rescue(救助)center with a group of high school students from other schools.On the first day,everyone introduced themselves excitedly,but a quiet boy named Jasper only spoke his name in a soft voice before lowering his head.He always stayed near the cages for hurt birds,writing down feeding notes or cleaning the cages alone.I paid little attention to him at first,as I was busy chatting with outgoing volunteers who shared my bird-watching hobby. On the third day,the sun was strong at noon after we fed the rescued birds.I reached for my favorite baseball cap in my backpack to block the sun.It was a light grey cap with a blue bird logo,a prize I won in a city bird protection event last year.It had come with me on over 10 forest trips—once I fell in the woods chasing a rare bird,and I even refused to wash the tiny mud stain on the cap.I searched every pocket of my bag twice,and even checked the grass I just sat on,but couldn't find it,growing more and more anxious. The next morning during break,I saw Jasper standing near the bird cages,wearing a cap that looked exactly like mine.I walked over to him,speaking angrily:“Why did you take my cap without asking?" Jasper's face turned bright red.He took off the cap and explained it was a gift.from his grandpa,who passed away last year,and that there was the short form of his name “J.W”written by his grandpa inside.I leaned in to check and found the mark that my cap didn’t have.I searched my bag again,and finally found my cap under my thick bird-watching notebook,where the cap had been hidden all along.A wave of embarrassment washed over me. 注意： (1)续写词数应为150个左右； (2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Looking at my own cap in my hand,I froze for a second,too nervous to say a word. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Jasper shook his head softly when I finished saying sorry to him,a small smile spreading across his face.________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
