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. 4. 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. 5. 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. 6. What is the author’s attitude toward her wall calendar? A. Enthusiastic. B. Indifferent. C. Objective. D. Doubtful. 7. 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. 【答案】4. D 5. C 6. A 7. D 【解析】 【导语】这篇文章主要讲述了作者习惯用挂历规划生活，以此获得掌控感。曾改用手机日历后感到茫然，于是重新买回挂历。看着写满安排的挂历，内心重获平静与安定。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“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.( 我已经经常用手机的日历，同时我也觉得，把全部生活暴露在室友和客人面前，实在有些尴尬)”可知，2025年作者没有买日历是因为她对别人看到她的日程安排感到不舒服。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Stepping back, looking at the final product of my newly reorganized life, I felt at peace.( 退后一步，看着我重新组织的生活的最终成果，我感到平静)”以及第四段提到的“Everything is broken up into neatly organized boxes, making everything feel under control.( 一切都被划分在整齐的方格里，让一切感觉都在掌控之中)”可知，同样的日程之所以感觉不同，是因为墙上的日历让整个月的安排一目了然，使作者重新获得了对生活的掌控感。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“And this is why I love my wall calendar.( 这就是为什么我喜欢我的墙上日历)”以及第四段中“There’s something so soothing, so steadying, about a wall calendar.( 墙上日历有一种让人感到如此平静、如此安定的特质)”可知，作者对墙上日历充满了喜爱与依赖，态度是热情的。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章主要讲述了作者通过使用墙上日历来组织生活，从而获得内心的平静和对生活的掌控感。即使中间一度停用，最终还是因为怀念这种感觉而重新使用。全文围绕作者对墙上日历的情感依赖和依恋展开。 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. 8. 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. 9. 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. 10. 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. 11. 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. 【答案】8. D 9. B 10. C 11. A 【解析】 【导语】文章讲述了爱尔兰研究发现咖啡可通过肠脑轴影响情绪，适量饮用更有益。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段“Decaf coffee was linked to improvements in learning and memory.(脱咖啡因咖啡与学习和记忆的改善有关。)”可知，脱咖啡因咖啡能帮助人们更好地学习和记忆。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第四段“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.(研究人员现在认为，经常喝咖啡的人随着时间的推移可能会产生较弱的压力反应。因此，每天喝咖啡可以帮助一些人在压力下保持冷静。)”可知，咖啡可能有助于缓解经常饮用者的压力。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“Therefore, moderation (适度) is key, and it is important to pay attention to your own body to find what suits you best.(因此，适度是关键，重要的是要注意自己的身体，找到最适合自己的量。)”可知，研究人员建议每天饮用适量的咖啡。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。文章第一段开篇点题，指出“咖啡可能通过肠脑轴影响情绪”，随后的段落详细介绍了相关的研究过程、不同种类咖啡（含咖啡因与脱咖啡因）对情绪和大脑的具体影响，以及适度饮用的建议。因此，作者写这篇文章的主要目的是解释咖啡是如何影响情绪的。 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 $20 each. “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.” 12. What does the underlined word “lapses” in paragraph 1 mean? A. Improvements. B. Habits. C. Differences. D. Losses. 13. 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. 14. 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. 15. 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 【答案】12. D 13. A 14. B 15. C 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍一款可测精神压力的无线前额电子文身及其优势。 【12题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第一段中“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.(它有助于监测空中交通管制员和卡车司机这类工作人员的精神压力，他们注意力的lapses，例如漏掉一个警报，会造成严重后果。)”可知，它有助于监测空中交通管制员和卡车司机这类工作人员的精神压力，他们注意力的缺失，lapses表示“丧失，缺失”，losses符合含义。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“Those caps have more sensors for different brain regions but never get a perfect signal because head shapes vary.(那些头套有更多传感器用于不同大脑区域，但因为头型各不相同，永远无法获得完美信号。)”以及“We measure participants’ facial features to produce personalized e-tattoos, ensuring the sensors are always in the right location and receiving signals.(我们测量受试者的面部特征来制作个性化电子文身，确保传感器始终在正确位置并接收信号。)” 可知，电子文身收集脑信号更加可靠。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段中“I hope to turn the e-tattoo into a home wearable product.(我希望把这款电子文身变成家用可穿戴产品。)”可知，普通人未来或许可以在家使用这款电子文身。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段中“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.(5月29日发表在《Device》杂志上的一项研究表明，一款可移除的无线前额电子文身已被研发出来，它无需笨重头部设备，读取脑电波来测量精神压力。)”可知，全文围绕一款测量精神压力的电子文身展开。C选项“电子纹身：用于测量精神压力”为最佳标题。 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 ____16____ can make them feel accepted. ____17____ 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. ____18____ 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?” ____19____ Follow up with them later. Follow up a day or two later with a quick message or phone call. ____20____ 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. 【答案】16. C 17. D 18. G 19. F 20. E 【解析】 【导语】文章介绍回复他人情绪短信的方法：不带评判倾听、聚焦对方、不用套话、按需提建议、后续跟进，真诚关注最能安慰人。 【16题详解】 根据上文“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(让他们知道你是一个可以放心倾诉的人，向他们表明你珍惜这份信任，并鼓励他们多说一点，诸如“谢谢你愿意把这件事告诉我”或者……的简单表达能让他们感到被接纳)”可知，前文提到要鼓励对方多分享，C项“你能多告诉我一些关于那方面的信息吗？”符合引导对方倾诉的语境，和举例的“Thank you for telling me this.”呼应。 【17题详解】 根据后文“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.(现在不是谈论你自身烦恼的时候。即便你自己也有一堆烦心事，你总可以换个时间再聊这些。如果你能共情对方的遭遇，适当分享自身经历是可以的。例如，你可以说：“我最好的朋友误会我的时候，我也特别难过。只要你想倾诉，我一直都在。” 以此把关注点放在他们的需求上)”可知，该段核心是说明不要把话题转到自己的问题上，要聚焦对方的需求，D项“让对话始终围绕他们展开”是该段的主题句，契合段落内容。 【18题详解】 根据上文“Using a cliché might make the other person feel like you’re not taking their feelings seriously.(使用陈词滥调可能会让对方觉得你没有认真对待他们的感受)”以及后文“A personalized response, such as “I can see why that hurt you so deeply,” shows you are truly paying attention.(个性化的回复，例如 “我能理解为什么这件事会深深伤害到你”，表明你真的在用心倾听)”可知，前文指出陈词滥调会让对方觉得你不重视他们的感受，后文提到要给出个性化的回应，G项“相反，应给出一个体贴的回应，直接符合他们的具体情况”起到承上启下的转折衔接作用。 【19题详解】 根据上文“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?”(记住，很多人只是想要被理解。给出建议前一定要先询问对方。比如，你可以说：“听起来你工作上不太顺心。需要我帮你想想下一步该怎么做吗？”)”可知，前文举例说明要先询问对方是否需要建议再提供帮助，F项“这既尊重了他们的感受，又提供了实际的支持”是对这种做法意义的总结。 【20题详解】 根据上文“Follow up a day or two later with a quick message or phone call.(一两天之后发一条简短消息或者打个电话跟进一下)”可知，前文提到一两天后跟进联系，E项“这一小举动表明你的关心仍在持续”指代跟进的行为，说明该行为的意义，和后文的后续关怀表述呼应。 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.

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. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文 Looking at my own cap in my hand, I froze for a second, too nervous to say a word. I had wrongly accused Jasper of stealing my cap just now. My cheeks burned with shame. I took a deep breath and apologized sincerely to him. I told him I was so anxious about losing my precious cap that I jumped to a conclusion without careful checking. I felt terrible for misunderstanding him and asked if he could forgive my rude behavior. Jasper shook his head softly when I finished saying sorry to him, a small smile spreading across his face. He said he totally understood my worry about the cap with special meaning. He told me he loved birds just like me and showed me his detailed notes about injured birds. Later we worked together to feed birds and talked about bird watching. This misunderstanding turned us into close friends. I learned never to judge others in a hurry. From then on, we spent every break sharing our stories about wild birds. It was this little accident that brought our friendship to life. 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述了去年夏天，作者参加野生动物救助中心志愿活动，遇到安静男孩Jasper。作者丢失心爱的帽子后，看到Jasper戴着同款帽子，便生气指责他偷帽子。Jasper解释帽子是过世爷爷送的礼物。作者随后在笔记本下找到自己的帽子，满心尴尬，向Jasper道歉。这场误会最终让二人成为好友，也让作者懂得不要贸然评判他人。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容可知，第一段可描写看到手中自己的帽子，作者十分羞愧，意识到自己无端冤枉了Jasper。作者深呼吸，诚恳向他道歉，解释自己因为着急才没有核实就下结论，请求他原谅作者的鲁莽。 ②由第二段首句内容可知，第二段可描写Jasper原谅了作者，理解作者对帽子的珍视。他和作者分享观鸟笔记，之后作者们一起照料受伤鸟类。这次误会让作者们成为好友，作者也收获人生感悟：切勿仓促评判别人。 2.续写线索：发现帽子在包内→羞愧呆住→诚恳道歉→Jasper原谅→交流观鸟爱好→一起照料鸟儿→收获友谊与感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①指责：accuse sb. of doing sth./blame sb. for sth. ②询问：ask/inquire 情绪类 ①担心：worry about/concern about ②焦虑的：anxious/dysphoric 【点睛】[高分句型1] I told him I was so anxious about losing my precious cap that I jumped to a conclusion without careful checking.（运用了so…that…引导结果状语从句） [高分句型2] He said he totally understood my worry about the cap with special meaning.（运用了省略that的宾语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 高二英语 时量：120分钟 满分：150分 第一部分 听力(共两节，满分30分) 第一节 (共5小题；每小题1. 5分，满分7. 5分) 听下面5段录音。每段录音后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段录音后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段录音播放两遍。 1.

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. 4. 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. 5. 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. 6. What is the author’s attitude toward her wall calendar? A. Enthusiastic. B. Indifferent. C. Objective. D. Doubtful. 7. 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. 8. 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. 9. 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. 10. 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. 11. 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 $20 each. “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.” 12. What does the underlined word “lapses” in paragraph 1 mean? A. Improvements. B. Habits. C. Differences. D. Losses. 13. 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. 14. What can be inferred about the e-tattoo from Luis Sentis’s words? A. It may be able to sense people’s emotions. B.

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 ____16____ can make them feel accepted. ____17____ 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. ____18____ 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?” ____19____ Follow up with them later. Follow up a day or two later with a quick message or phone call. ____20____ 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.

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. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
