B History hidden in Chinese direction words Have you ever thought about some interesting Chinese expressions?We say"shang ce suo"(go to the toilet)and"xia chu fang"(go to the kitchen).Toilet is"shang"(up),while kitchen is"xia"(down).Why do we use opposite direction words for these two places?The answer hides in ancient Chinese house layouts(布局). In old-time Chinese houses,buildings usually faced south.According to traditional rules,the toilet was built in the northeast part of the yard.The kitchen lay in the southeast corner.When family members walked from the main central hall towards the northeast toilet,they were moving "up".Walking to the southeast kitchen meant moving"down".That is how these phrases came into being. Direction words carry more old culture.We have the phrase "yi jian xiang zuo"(hold opposite opinions)."Zuo"means left.In ancient times,"left"sometimes stood for disagreement.Besides,many old official titles also contained“zuo”or“you'.You'often meant higher-rank position while“zuo”meant lower in certain periods. Language is a living record of history.We seldom notice these small details in daily speech.But behind simple words,we can catch how ancient Chinese people lived,thought and organized their homes. Studying language can open a window for us to learn history. )21.How does the writer bring out the topic in Paragraph1? A.By doing a survey about old houses. B.By raising puzzling daily language examples. C.By comparing modern and ancient houses.D.By introducing several old Chinese stories. ( )22.What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?

C.The moving directions caused by house layout.D.Traditional rules for building yards. )24.What is the function of the last paragraph? A.To give suggestions on learning spoken Chinese. B.Te provide more examples of old phrases. C.To draw a conclusion:language reflects history. D.To compare different kinds of old-style buildings. )25.What can we infer from Paragraph 3? A.“左”always meant low status in all ancient dynasties. ks. B.Some Chinese words show ancient social culture. C.Official titles in old days only used "zuo"and "you". D.People used"left"to talk about happy feelings. c Is multitasking(多任务处理)really helpful? Many of us believe multitasking makes us more productive.We listen to online classes while replying to messages.We finish homework with TV shows playing in the background.It seems we can do several things at one time.However,brain scientists say this idea is wrong. Our human brain cannot truly do two hard jobs at exactly the same time.When we think we are hy multitasking,our brain is just quickly switching()from one task to another.Each switch costs energy ise and attention.For example,if you read a text and chat online at the same time,you do not understand the reading well and your chat replies also become'careless. Some people may argue:"I am good at multitasking and I never make mistakes."Research from ers universities tells us something surprising.People who often practise multitasking are actually worse at the focusing.They are more easily influeneed by outside noise.They cannot keep their attention on one thing for long.They think they are excellent at many tasks,but in fact their work quality drops. ite This does not mean we can never do two things together.Simple actions can go well together.You old can listen to light music while walking.But for difficult brain work such as studying,planning or reading, single-tasking works far better. ant ()26.What does the writer.do in Paragraph 1? But A.He describes common daily situations to bring out the topic. B.He provides research results from brain scientists. es. C.He gives suggestions for better study habits. D.He compares two different study ways. )27.Why does the writer mention the research from universities in Paragraph 3? A.To prove many students enjoy chatting while studying. B.To support the opinion that frequent multitasking harms focus. C.To show people can master multitasking through practice. D.To explain how noise influences university students'sleep. )28.What does the underlined word "productive"in Paragraph 1 probably mean? A.谨慎的 B.高效的 C.好奇的 D.诚实的 )29.What can we learn from the passage? A.Our brain can deal with two difficult tasks at the same time. B.People good at multitasking seldom get influenced by noise. C.We'd better do hard-thinking work one at a time. D.Listening to music while reading improves our study speed. )30.What would be the best title? A.Good ways to improve your attention B.Why multitasking is not as good as you think C.Single-iasking:a forgotten old habit D.How your brain learns new knowledge 第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读短文，从文后所列选项中，选出最佳选项填入对应空白处，使短文通顺、连贯。（选 项中有一项多余) Have you ever heard of the Feynman Technique?It's a learning method that helps students learn by teaching others.Nobel Prize-winning physicist Richard Feynman developed it. (31)For one thing,it helps students really understand something instcad of just knowing information.Moreover,different from traditional learning methods like re-reading textbooks or reviewing notes,the Technique pushes students to be more active in learning.

(33)Try to find any area where you felt that you couldn't explain the topic simply.When possible,it can be very helpful to get advice from someone whose understanding is similar to that of a sixth-grader. Improve your explanation using the information collected from the last step. (34)That is why going through all the steps above just once is usually not enough to fully understand the topic. Once you're confident that you've learned the topic,it's time to give yourself a prize (35) A.Review your explanation B.Ask others for useful learning advice. C.Perhaps,like me,enjoy a nice cup of coffee D.If not,you'll end up jumping between topics. E.The Technique works best when you repeat it. F.The Technique has been among the most useful learning methods for long. 三、短文填空（共10小题，每小题1分，满分10分） 阅读短文，从方框中选出恰当的单词并用其适当形式填空，使短文通顺、意义完整。每 空仅填词，每词仅用一次。 admire brave childhood discover herself inspire let turn besides win Hans Christian Andersen Award is known as the "Nobel Prize of children's literature".This April,a Chinese children's picture book illustrator named Cai Gao got the 2026 Hans Christian Andersen Award for Illustration.Cai is the first Chinese (36) of the honour."I hope the award can be a great (37) to illustrators so that they can create more excellent picture books for children," she said.
