We often feel tired and sleepy when we wake up. It really needs strong courage to get up in winter. Here are some tips for you to make “getting up on cold mornings” easy. Get as much natural light as you can Enough bright light will help you get up early, says Jennifer Martin, doctor from American Academy of Sleep Medicine. That’s because light influences melatonin (褪黑激素), which plays an important role in sleep. As a result, when you wake up, taking a walk or enjoying coffee outside will be good. Some people prefer to use curtains or wear eye masks to create a dark sleeping environment, but that will be a bad idea if you want to get up early the next day. Form the fixed early rising habit There are two ways to help you get up early. First, you can force yourself to get up at a fixed time. It must be difficult in the beginning, but after a few weeks, you will not feel hard. Martin recommends people can try another way. You can get up ten minutes earlier than usual on the first day. After a few days, you can get up another ten minutes earlier. Finally, you will get used to the new habit. Go to bed early in the evening A fixed bedtime is also important to make sure you’re getting enough sleep. Most people should have at least seven hours of sleep. So you’ll probably need to go to bed early if you want to change your habit. Research shows that we should make sure we are not in the bright light for at least an hour before we sleep. Bright light will influence our abilities to fall asleep. Listening to soft music or doing some reading may be helpful before you sleep. Plan something to look forward to To encourage you to get out of bed, Martin suggests treating yourself to something special you can enjoy. Go to buy your favourite coffee or pick up some delicious breakfast. Start a day with something nice, and you will find getting up early on cold mornings is not difficult.

Nowadays, many teenagers are just like strawberries. They easily lose control when they face difficulties. They don’t know what to do with difficulties when they are in trouble. There is a name for them — strawberry children. Why do many students lose control so easily? Many students are the only child in their family. Parents do almost everything for them in their daily life, grandparents always give them what they want, and schools pay more attention to their grades instead of developing their personalities. Wang Ran, 13 years old, is from Guangdong. His mum hardly criticizes (批评) him and he always feels good about himself. When a teacher criticized him strictly, he felt surprised and sad. Then he began to doubt his ability. Students should learn how to make themselves mentally (精神上) strong. A youth worker said, “When you are in trouble, don’t ask for help too quickly. You should try to work out problems first by yourself. Take part in sports and social activities actively. That can help you become mentally strong.” Growing up is not simply a happy process. Pains also go along with it. The most important thing is facing the pains bravely and learning from them.

Four years ago, she finally decided to give up her job. She did it not because she hated her job, but because her job was getting in the way of her true love. She has been interested in Chongming traditional fabric (织物), made from cotton and colored with plant dyes (染料) since she was a girl. She learned how to weave (编织) the cloth from her mother. Before leaving her job, Song had been using her after-work time to design, sew and weave everything with her own hands. At first, the small items she made became a hit in the office. “When the things you make are liked by others, you’ll find yourself enjoying doing more and more,” Song said.

Like those other days, it’s a time for friends and family to 1 for food, chat and arguments. However, some people living on the margins (边缘部分) of society 2 that special connection. Meir Kalmanson thought they, too, should get to 3 the big day. So on a cold February Sunday in 2017, as he 4 to a Super Bowl party at a New York City club, he invited six 5 men to join him. Over burgers, wings and soda, Kalmanson and his homeless guests watched a football match. Kalmanson 6 the scene as having a “warm, exciting energy”. “If you walked in, you couldn’t tell who was homeless and who wasn’t. 7 , the men felt that they were part of 8 ,” said Kalmanson. Kalmanson has 319,000 followers on YouTube. He thought that the 9 was a one-off (一次性的事物). But the following year, when friends and YouTube fans asked about the next Super Bowl party, he knew the event had already 10 a life of its own. So Kalmanson 11 the charitable (慈善的) organization Super Soul Parties. He works with volunteers and homeless shelters to 12 gatherings on game day. Kalmanson’s 13 is to spread the celebrations to every state. 14 , the Super Soul Parties are more than a sporting event.

You can sleep or look at your phone. But there is more. In China, some trains become special places. They bring people and China’s intangible cultural heritage together. ②Trains run across China. They are great places to show local traditional culture. Take the K7041 train from Harbin to Mohe in Heilongjiang as an example. It is an ICH train. On this train, Gulayier wore traditional clothes. He sang Oroqen (鄂伦春) folk songs. His partner played the Oroqen jaw harp, a kind of musical instrument (乐器). Tourists on the train, especially visitors from southern China, sang and danced happily with the two performers. Gulayier said the train helps tourists notice his shows more easily. He thought the train was a good place to spread ICH. ③Traditional heritage becomes lively on trains. More ICH shows are on high-speed trains across China. For example, Qinhuai lanterns from Nanjing, Yulin puppet shows and tea-picking operas in Guangxi. Passengers on the trains can watch traditional culture closely. ④Professor Xiao Fang from Beijing Normal University agrees with Gulayier. He thinks ICH trains have another good point. These trains do more than spread culture. They also help tourism. When passengers enjoy local traditions on the train, they often become more interested in visiting the places the train goes through. ⑤However, ICH trains still face some problems. There is little space on trains. Also, passengers get on and off at every station. So people come up with some ways to solve the problems. There are cultural corners to show traditional arts. QR codes (二维码) can link to (连接到) more digital information. These help passengers learn about ICH at their own speed. They can keep learning after the trip. ⑥The success of ICH trains teaches us useful lessons for protecting culture around the world. It tells us innovation and tradition can work together. They can keep cultural heritage alive for young people in the future. 1．What’s the correct order of the events in Paragraph 2? ①Gulayier sang Oroqen folk songs and his partner played the jaw harp. ②The K7041 train left Harbin for Mohe. ③Gulayier thought the train was a good place to spread ICH. ④Tourists from southern China sang and danced happily with the performers.

How could anybody be unaware of entertaining an angel? I’ve never thought that angelic qualities could hide under very ordinary voices and in everyday bodies. My angel, as it turned out, hid inside the little body of my school teacher, Miss McKenzie. To me she was always a little old lady, with her grey hair framing a round rosy face and caught up in an old-fashioned bun (发髻) on top of her head. Although I enjoyed Miss McKenzie’s approval (赞同), I never really felt very close to her. I had never asked her advice as to what I should do when I left school. Surely there was only one thing to do: Get a job and make money as quickly as possible. But Miss McKenzie had other ideas. We in our house knew nothing of scholarships for fatherless children. The idea of a child from a working-class family going to college was the very thing of storybooks. Unknown to us, she forced the headmaster to put my name forward for a special scholarship open to children who showed a gift, and who would receive further education. He agreed, although he was a bit worried about the cost of keeping me at college for a whole year. No earnings from me, and costs and clothes to be covered, for, of course, only the fees (学费) would be paid if I won. Miss McKenzie brushed all argument aside. To this day I can remember my complete surprise when, on being asked if she felt I had any special qualities, this elderly teacher banged the desk with her hand, and declared (断言) in an American saying I never thought she knew, “I’d stake (以……打赌) my bottom dollar on this girl!” I shook at the passion (激情) in her voice, and at her trust in me. “What if I fail her?” I thought to myself. “What if she has to pay all the money back if I let her down?” I had a sense of responsibility and I shouldn’t let her down. The time at college went by quickly. At the end of my year at college, I was able to lay before her the college gold medal as the year’s top student and a whole pile of awards. And suddenly as I looked at her, and saw her eyes shining with pride behind the gold-rimmed glasses, I realized how widely she had thrown open the door of chance for me. And I knew for the first time what the phrase “entertaining angels unaware” meant. For there, standing before me in class, was my very own angel, Miss McKenzie. —An excerpt from Shoes Were for Sunday by Molly Weir 1．The writer writes paragraphs 2-5 in order to ________.

C．The chance to achieve dreams. D．The duty to do something well. 4．In paragraph 6, the writer felt ________ when she heard Miss McKenzie’s passionate voice. A．surprised and encouraged B．ashamed and unwilling C．uncertain and stressed D．worried and purposeful 5．The writer’s main purpose of writing this passage is to ________. A．think back on her schooldays and her past achievements B．express her thankfulness to one of her school teachers C．stress the importance of equal chance of education D．encourage readers to find the angels around them In many areas of life, people compete even when it does not benefit them. Office workers stay late at work to avoid looking lazy. On social media, people feel pressed to post perfect photos. These situations all come from a problem called the theater effect, which explains why it is hard for people to stop competing, even when it is unnecessary. The theater effect happens when one person tries to do better, forcing others to follow. In the end, everyone works harder, but no one truly benefits. Imagine watching a movie—if the people in front stand up, those behind must stand too. Finally, everyone is standing, but the view remains the same. A well-known experiment at Stanford University tested this idea. Researchers invited 200 people to bid(竞标) for a $100 bill. The highest bidder won, but the second-highest still had to pay. At first, bids were small, but as the price neared $100, people refused to stop. Some even bid more than $100 just to avoid losing their earlier bids. This irrational behavior shows that once competition begins, people realize that it’s hard to stop competing, even when it no longer makes sense. The theater effect comes from early human survival instincts(本能). Back then, the dopamine system in our brain made us feel good about short-term success, like catching food, because it ensured survival. Today, this same system drives us to aim for victory in competitions—even where the results are meaningless. However, modern life is different. Today, while basic needs are no longer a big problem for us, we should learn to think clearly. Then how can we stop this kind of useless competition? First, we should know that we don’t need to win all the time to prove our value. Real growth means doing better than before, not better than others. Second, we should take a moment to ask ourselves, “Are we doing it because we truly enjoy it, or just because we are afraid to be left behind?” Another important point is to aim for meaningful goals, not just to win. Focus on what truly matters, and feel peace in your heart—that is how we find real happiness. So next time you feel pressed to “stand up”, just because others do, ask yourself: Is this really the best choice for me? 1．According to the passage, which is probably the example of the theater effect? A．A family enjoys a quiet dinner without surfing the internet. B．A company gives praise to workers for their continual efforts. C．People set a long-term goal to exercise more for better health. D．Students sign up for more classes because others are doing so. 2．What does the word“irrational” in Paragraph 3 most probably mean? A．unreasonable. B．important. C．meaningful. D．beneficial. 3．Why does the writer mention the Stanford University experiment? A．To show how people can wisely manage their money in competitions. B．To prove that people are naturally good at avoiding financial losses. C．To explain how competition can push people into making unwise decisions. D．To explain why being the highest bidder is always a bad idea. 4．The writer probably agrees that ________. A．joining in competitions is a good way to show your value B．it is wise to stop and think before joining in a competition C．competition is important and always helps us move forward D．following others is a safe way to avoid making wrong choices 5．What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage? A．To compare research findings on over-competition. B．To guide people to go for more successful achievements. C．To encourage people to care less about their basic needs. D．To advise readers to make choices that truly suit themselves. On February 22, Guo Hongyi, an 8-year-old boy, solved a 4-level Tower of Hanoi with one hand in 4.305 seconds and set a new world record. Tower of Hanoi is a maths game which has been popular for centuries. To solve a Tower of Hanoi puzzle, it needs your brain, eyes and hands to work together. Tower of Hanoi is made up of three poles and a stack of discs. The discs should be placed from the largest on the bottom to the smallest on the top. The way to play the game is to move the whole stack from Pole (a) to Pole (c). There are three simple rules as follows: ◆Only one disc can be moved at a time. ◆You can only move the top disc of a stack. ◆Each disc can be placed on any pole, but it can’t be placed on top of a smaller disc. Tower of Hanoi was invented by a French mathematician called Edouard Lucas in 1883. His idea came from an ancient story: In an Eastern temple (寺庙) with three huge poles, the god asked the priests (僧侣) to move a stack of 64 golden discs from Pole One to Pole Three. Edouard found the maths problem in the story interesting and tried to work out the minimum (最小的) number of moves to solve the puzzle. Finally, he came up with the formula (公式): 2n-1, where “n” is the number of discs. According to the formula, even if the priests made one move every second, it would take 500 billion years to finish. It was an impossible task for them. Nowadays, Tower of Hanoi is used in many fields, such as the psychological research and computer science. It has made great contributions to humans’ lives. So next time you’re looking for a fun and challenging puzzle game, give Tower of Hanoi a try. 1．What is the main purpose of the first paragraph? A．To explain how to play the Tower of Hanoi.

D．To show the importance of the Tower of Hanoi in science. 2．According to the rules of Tower of Hanoi, which of the following pictures shows the correct move? A． B． C． D． 3．The formula created by Edouard is used to know the ________. A．fewest moves B．sizes of discs C．fewest discs D．speed of moves 4．According to the passage, what is required to solve a Tower of Hanoi puzzle? A．Strong physical strength and speed. B．Special tools and equipment (设备). C．Knowledge of physics and mathematics. D．The coordination (配合) of brain, eyes, and hands. 5．Why does the writer write the passage? A．To show how popular Tower of Hanoi is. B．To introduce the history of Tower of Hanoi. C．To attract more people to play Tower of Hanoi. D．To explain why Tower of Hanoi is widely used. The list for the sixth-grade basketball team was announced (宣布) online. I was a little worried because I knew how much my 12-year-old son wanted to make the team. I read the list of 13 names for a few minutes. Finally, I had to tell myself that my son wasn’t on the list. I felt sad. I wished it would be about victory. Like every parent, I love to say, “You did it!” Instead, I had to give my son a speech to comfort him, which was a lot less exciting, but probably more important. It was not really a speech, but a further discussion about spirit, courage and not giving up. Although it was painful for me to see myself so disappointed (失望), I needed to keep my own feelings in check. Sure, I wanted to call the coach to say he made a big mistake, but I would not. Nor would I let my son know that I thought it unfair. Instead, I put my own feelings aside and let my son have a safe place to calm down. And when he was done, I needed to encourage him to continue to improve skills. That day was a loss, but the only way to get another win was to put on his trainers and get on the basketball court again. My son is 15 years old now. And, after being cut from the team for three years in a row (连续地), he got to see his name on the list for the high school team. Last week, my husband and I watched him play in his first game. The smile on his face when he made his first shot is something I will never forget. After so many failures, it was a win that didn’t come easy for him. And it wouldn’t have happened if he had given up trying. 1．Why did the writer feel sad at first? A．Because her son didn’t feel confident. B．Because her son didn’t make the basketball team. C．Because her son decided to stop playing basketball. D．Because her son failed in a few basketball matches. 2．What does the underlined part “keep my own feelings in check” in Paragraph 3 mean? A．Hide my own feeling. B．Hurt my own feeling. C．Follow my own feeling. D．Show my own feeling. 3．What did the mother do after her son failed to make the team? A．She called the coach to complain. B．She told her son it was unfair. C．She encouraged him to keep trying. D．She advised him to give up basketball. 4．What can be inferred (推断) about the writer’s son? A．He felt unhappy with his parents. B．He stopped working on his basketball skills. C．He played in a high school team at the age of 12． D．He was finally accepted by his high school team. 5．Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A．The Best Basketball Player. B．Mother’s Love for Her Son. C．Success Comes after Failure. D．The Importance of Teamwork. People question whether social media (媒体) is making modern society less empathetic (有同感的). Some studies show that heavy social media users are less empathetic, while others suggest quite the opposite. To learn more about the question, we asked over 1,250 American participants (参与者) how often they checked social media. They also completed questionnaires (问卷) where they decided whether they have the qualities that researchers call empathy, such as thinking from other people’s point of view, feeling worried for other people in trouble, and feeling bad when others feel bad. Our study found that the more social media people reported using, the lower their levels of empathy were. This finding didn’t change much according to the type of social media they use, their gender (性别), or education. However, we only asked American adults. Is it possible that the relationship we found would not be true elsewhere? Indeed, researchers in other areas have found different results. Researchers in the UK, Spain, and the Netherlands have shown that, in their countries, the higher people used social media, the higher empathy they had. An Indian study found no relationship between the two. To learn the big picture, we compared (比较) all these studies. We found that the relationship between social media use and empathy differed based on two things: age and nationality. In general, studies carried out in Europe found a positive (积极的) connection between social media use and empathy, while studies in the U.S. found no meaningful or negative (消极的) connection. Besides, research done with children under 18 showed a positive connection, while research with adults found no connection. Cultural differences may explain the difference. Americans are more likely to post news about their personal achievements online. It is no surprise that Americans who use social media often are not developing their empathy skills. But populations outside of America appear to use social media for different purposes, including strengthening friendships. For them, more social media use is connected with being more empathetic. Perhaps people’s purposes for using social media can tell us more about their character. 1．What is the main purpose of the research described in the passage? A．To prove that social media makes people less empathetic. B．To study the influence of social media on American adults. C．To compare the empathy levels of different nationalities. D．To discover the relationship between social media use and empathy. 2．Which of the following factors (因素) about the participants was important for the first study? A．Age. B．Gender. C．Interest. D．Income. 3．According to the passage, which of the following statements is true? A．All studies show that heavy social media users are less empathetic. B．The relationship between social media use and empathy is the same in all countries. C．Research showed a positive connection between social media use and empathy in the UK, Spain and the Netherlands. D．American adults using social media often are more likely to develop their empathy skills. 4．Which statement will the writer probably agree with? A．Indians like to show off online. B．Children are more empathetic than adults. C．Americans are more empathetic than Europeans. D．Reasons behind social media use show a person’s character. 5．Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A．The Positive Influence of Social Media on Empathy. B．Why Americans Are Less Empathetic on Social Media. C．Social Media and Empathy: A Complex (复杂的) Relationship. D．How to Develop Empathy Skills through Social Media. Twenty years ago, a new version (版本) of The Peony Pavilion (《牡丹亭》), a great work of Chinese Kunqu Opera that includes music, poetry, beautiful clothes, and smooth actions, came out in Taiwan, China, causing great excitement and then touring worldwide. This was not a usual version. Known as the youth version of The Peony Pavilion, it hoped to bring new life into the traditional art form. “Many young people saw Kunqu for the first time through this play and later fell in love with it,” said Bai Xianyong, the producer of the play. Actually, Bai’s love for bringing back Kunqu wasn’t an accident. “At that time, many Kunqu masters were nearing retirement (退休), and there was a real danger that this art form would face a lack (缺乏) of skill and tradition,” Bai said. “To make it stay active, we need to attract young people back to the theater as soon as possible.” In 2003, a group of young actors and actresses in their 20s joined Bai’s training camp to learn Kunqu’s skills. “The main actor practiced walking on knees until his knees were hurt, and the main actress wore out (磨坏) more than ten pairs of shoes during the training,” Bai said. “Finally, in 2006, the play triumphed across four University of California schools, with a full house at each show. Many students recommended the opera to their family and friends, and some began researching Kunqu’s history for their school projects.” Recently, Bai opened a personal account (账号) online, where he shares his thoughts with over 95,000 fans. “I want to know what young people in China think about traditional culture and hear their voices,” said Bai. “We have entered the age of AI. In this fast-changing world, it is highly important for young people to value traditional Chinese culture. The base of Chinese culture must be strong to prevent it from being controlled by high technology.” 1．What was special about Bai Xianyong’s version of The Peony Pavilion? A．It came out by accident. B．It attracted young people. C．It was a traditional art form. D．It invited well-known actors. 2．Why did Bai want to bring back Kunqu? A．To keep Kunqu culture alive. B．To remember Kunqu masters. C．To develop his acting skills. D．To learn new theater styles. 3．What does the underlined word “triumphed” in Paragraph 4 most probably mean? A．changed its style B．faced big challenges C．achieved great success D．attracted few people 4．What do you think of the training for the play? A．Easy but boring. B．Hard but meaningful. C．Quick but tiring. D．Relaxing but unsafe. 5．What is Bai’s purpose in opening his personal account? A．To introduce his plays. B．To discuss traditional life. C．To teach AI knowledge. D．To bridge youth and tradition. 阅读下面短文，从短文后选项中选出可填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。 Life is full of challenges, but every difficulty also creates a chance to grow and discover the strength you didn't know you had.

We often feel tired and sleepy when we wake up. It really needs strong courage to get up in winter. Here are some tips for you to make “getting up on cold mornings” easy. Get as much natural light as you can Enough bright light will help you get up early, says Jennifer Martin, doctor from American Academy of Sleep Medicine. That’s because light influences melatonin (褪黑激素), which plays an important role in sleep. As a result, when you wake up, taking a walk or enjoying coffee outside will be good. Some people prefer to use curtains or wear eye masks to create a dark sleeping environment, but that will be a bad idea if you want to get up early the next day. Form the fixed early rising habit There are two ways to help you get up early. First, you can force yourself to get up at a fixed time. It must be difficult in the beginning, but after a few weeks, you will not feel hard. Martin recommends people can try another way. You can get up ten minutes earlier than usual on the first day. After a few days, you can get up another ten minutes earlier. Finally, you will get used to the new habit. Go to bed early in the evening A fixed bedtime is also important to make sure you’re getting enough sleep. Most people should have at least seven hours of sleep. So you’ll probably need to go to bed early if you want to change your habit. Research shows that we should make sure we are not in the bright light for at least an hour before we sleep. Bright light will influence our abilities to fall asleep. Listening to soft music or doing some reading may be helpful before you sleep. Plan something to look forward to To encourage you to get out of bed, Martin suggests treating yourself to something special you can enjoy. Go to buy your favourite coffee or pick up some delicious breakfast. Start a day with something nice, and you will find getting up early on cold mornings is not difficult.

Nowadays, many teenagers are just like strawberries. They easily lose control when they face difficulties. They don’t know what to do with difficulties when they are in trouble. There is a name for them — strawberry children. Why do many students lose control so easily? Many students are the only child in their family. Parents do almost everything for them in their daily life, grandparents always give them what they want, and schools pay more attention to their grades instead of developing their personalities.

You should try to work out problems first by yourself. Take part in sports and social activities actively. That can help you become mentally strong.” Growing up is not simply a happy process.

We 1 still talking about the Asian Games, which ended two days ago. Many young Chinese athletes amazed audiences across Asia with their wonderful performances. In swimming relays, table tennis and diving, they won plenty of gold medals. It is not only their excellent skills 2 also their calm confidence that touches us deeply. These young players knew that no great achievement comes 3 endless hard practice. Reporters said they had shown the confident spirit of China’s new generation. 4 they respected every competitor, they never feared any challenges ahead. When we watched Chen Yuxi and Lu Wei dive gracefully into the water, or saw Pan Zhanle and his teammates fight side by side in relay races, we can learn 5 important lesson: success belongs to those who keep pushing forward. Nobody can reach the top unless he 6 ready to pay the price. Players like Sun Yingsha, Wang Chuqin, Lin Shidong and Kuai Man also impressed the whole world. They spent years practicing so that they could achieve such high-level 7 (result). They were not merely chasing gold medals. They kept pushing themselves 8 carry forward the noble sports spirit.

Have you ever had this 1 ? This special feeling 2 as the sixth sense. It is different from our five basic senses: sight, hearing, touch, taste, and smell. Scientists are still trying to 3 how it works, so it remains unknown. There are many usual examples of the sixth sense. Sometimes you suddenly think of a friend, and then he puts his hand on your 4 from behind right away. Some people have a strong feeling that something good or bad will happen soon. Others, especially twins or 5 close family members can sometimes sense what the other person is thinking or feeling. Have you ever felt that somebody was watching you, but when you turned around, 6 was there? That is also a kind of sixth sense. Why do we have these feelings? There are different ideas. Some scientists think our brain (大脑) notices and processes (处理) small details around us that we do not see, and it uses this information to give us a feeling. For example, maybe the teacher often looks at you before you 7 an answer to a question, so your brain learns this. Other people think it is like magic and science can’t 8 it. Some also say that maybe we just imagine it or it is simply a coincidence (巧合). For most people, these special feelings do not happen often and it is 9 to worry about them. 10 , for a few people whose feelings are too strong or happen too often, it might be a good idea to talk to someone about it. 【答案】 1．experience 2．is recognized 3．dig up 4．shoulder 5．pretty 6．nobody 7．come up with 8．explain 9．unnecessary 10．However 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，文章主要介绍了“第六感”这一特殊感觉，列举了生活中的常见例子，探讨了科学家对此的不同解释，并给出了是否需要担忧的建议。 1．句意：你有过这种经历吗？根据上文描述的感觉及指示代词“this”可知，此处需填名词单数，前文描述老师还没叫你的名字，你就预感她会提问你，属于经历，experience意为“经历”，符合语境。 2．句意：这种特殊的感觉被认定为第六感。固定搭配recognize A as B“把A看作B”。主语“This special feeling”与动词recognize之间是被动关系，且陈述客观事实用一般现在时，故用被动语态is recognized。 3．句意：科学家们仍在试图探究它是如何工作的。try to do sth.“尽力做某事”，to后面加动词原形。根据语境及剩余词汇，dig up本义“挖掘”，这里引申为“探究、查明、找出 (真相)”，符合科学家研究未知事物的语境。 4．句意：有时候你突然想起一位朋友，紧接着他就从背后把手搭在你的肩膀上。put one’s hand on your shoulder“把手搭在你的肩上”，固定场景搭配，用单数形式shoulder。 5．句意：还有一些人，特别是双胞胎或是关系十分亲近的家人，有时能感知到对方的想法和感受。此处修饰形容词“close”，需用副词。pretty作副词意为“相当”，符合语境。 6．句意：你有没有过这种体验：感觉有人在盯着你，可当你转过身，却一个人都没有？根据转折连词“but”可知，前后意思相反，前面感觉有人看，后面实际没人，故将somebody变为否定形式nobody。 7．句意：比如，或许在你想出问题的答案之前，老师经常看向你，你的大脑就记住了这个信号。come up with an answer意为“想出答案”，主语是“you”，时态为一般现在时，用动词原形。 8．句意：其他人认为它像魔法，科学无法解释它。“can’t”后接动词原形，explain动词，意为“解释”，符合“魔法、说不清原理”的语境。 9．句意：对于大多数人来说，这些特殊感觉不常发生，没必要担心它们。根据上下文逻辑，不常发生所以“没必要”担心，necessary需变为否定形容词unnecessary。 10．句意：然而，对于一小部分人来说，如果这类感觉过于强烈、频繁出现，找人倾诉一下会是一个好办法。此处表示转折，位于句首，however首字母需大写。 阅读下面短文，从方框中选择适当的单词或短语，填入其正确的形式，每个单词或短语仅用一次。 support; exactly; turn; consider; worry; however; come up with; stay up; good; science Dreams may make you smart.

Before watching Soul, I believed life’s value came from big successes, like winning competitions, getting good grades or receiving 5 from others. I thought only these moments made life 6 living. But the movie shows me a different truth. Life is not only about reaching big goals, but also enjoying the small, 7 moments. It could be feeling cool wind, sharing jokes with friends or simply listening to music. These little things give life its real beauty and meaning. This made me think of my own life. I 8 focus too much on the future, running after goals and worrying about results. Now I try to slow down and enjoy the present. When stressed, I find joy in simple things.

In this novel published in 1872, the citizens (居民) of the country of Erewhon do not 4 anyone to build machines, as they fear that the machines could one day become smart and more 5 than man. In fact, this kind of “AI rebellion (反叛)” is a 6 theme in stories. In Stanley Kubrick’s classic film 2001: A Space Odyssey, a smart computer turns 7 the people on a spaceship, killing all except the ship’s commander (指挥官). In the Terminator movies, an AI network called Skynet, made for national defense (国防), decides to start a nuclear war (核战争) to 8 humans. But in other works of fiction, AI is more 9 to humans. US author Isaac Asimov, one of the greatest sci-fi writers 10 history, often wrote about AI. He created the Three Laws of Robotics to 11 smart robots from hurting humans. The laws have 12 influenced real-life discussions about AI ethics (伦理). Of course, new stories about AI are 13 out all the time. Our 14 in machines that can think, feel and act seems endless.

You can sleep or look at your phone. But there is more. In China, some trains become special places. They bring people and China’s intangible cultural heritage together. ②Trains run across China. They are great places to show local traditional culture. Take the K7041 train from Harbin to Mohe in Heilongjiang as an example. It is an ICH train. On this train, Gulayier wore traditional clothes. He sang Oroqen (鄂伦春) folk songs. His partner played the Oroqen jaw harp, a kind of musical instrument (乐器). Tourists on the train, especially visitors from southern China, sang and danced happily with the two performers. Gulayier said the train helps tourists notice his shows more easily. He thought the train was a good place to spread ICH. ③Traditional heritage becomes lively on trains. More ICH shows are on high-speed trains across China. For example, Qinhuai lanterns from Nanjing, Yulin puppet shows and tea-picking operas in Guangxi. Passengers on the trains can watch traditional culture closely. ④Professor Xiao Fang from Beijing Normal University agrees with Gulayier. He thinks ICH trains have another good point. These trains do more than spread culture. They also help tourism. When passengers enjoy local traditions on the train, they often become more interested in visiting the places the train goes through. ⑤However, ICH trains still face some problems. There is little space on trains. Also, passengers get on and off at every station. So people come up with some ways to solve the problems. There are cultural corners to show traditional arts. QR codes (二维码) can link to (连接到) more digital information. These help passengers learn about ICH at their own speed. They can keep learning after the trip. ⑥The success of ICH trains teaches us useful lessons for protecting culture around the world. It tells us innovation and tradition can work together. They can keep cultural heritage alive for young people in the future. 1．What’s the correct order of the events in Paragraph 2? ①Gulayier sang Oroqen folk songs and his partner played the jaw harp. ②The K7041 train left Harbin for Mohe. ③Gulayier thought the train was a good place to spread ICH. ④Tourists from southern China sang and danced happily with the performers. A．①②④③ B．②④①③ C．②①④③ D．①④②③ 2．The writer explains how trains spread traditional culture in Paragraphs 2 and 3 mainly by ________. A．giving examples B．listing numbers C．comparing results D．raising questions 3．The mind map below shows part of the passage. Which choice best fits the blanks (1)-(3) A．(1) tea-picking operas;        (2) tourism;        (3) QR codes B．(1) jaw harps;                (2) tourism;        (3) QR codes C．(1) tea-picking operas;        (2) education;        (3) cultural corners D．(1) QR codes;                (2) tourism;        (3) tea-picking operas 4．Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage?

D．Supportive. 【答案】1．C 2．A 3．A 4．A 5．D 【导语】本文是说明文，介绍了中国的非遗列车（ICH trains），列举了非遗列车的相关实例、传播传统文化的好处、面临的问题及对应解决方式，最后点明非遗列车为世界文化保护提供了有益经验，说明创新与传统相结合能够让文化遗产得以传承。 1．细节理解题。根据文章第2段“Take the K7041 train from Harbin to Mohe in Heilongjiang as an example. It is an ICH train. On this train, Gulayier wore traditional clothes. He sang Oroqen folk songs. His partner played the Oroqen jaw harp, a kind of musical instrument. Tourists on the train, especially visitors from southern China, sang and danced happily with the two performers. Gulayier said the train helps tourists notice his shows more easily. He thought the train was a good place to spread ICH.”可推知，事件发展顺序为：K7041次列车从哈尔滨开往漠河→Gulayier演唱鄂伦春民歌、搭档演奏鄂伦春口弦琴→南方游客和表演者一同开心地唱歌跳舞→Gulayier认为列车是传播非遗的好地方，对应顺序为②①④③。 2．细节理解题。根据文章第2段“Take the K7041 train from Harbin to Mohe in Heilongjiang as an example.”和第3段“For example, Qinhuai lanterns from Nanjing, Yulin puppet shows and tea-picking operas in Guangxi.”可推知，作者主要通过举例子的方式说明列车传播传统文化的方式。 3．细节理解题。根据文章第3段“For example, Qinhuai lanterns from Nanjing, Yulin puppet shows and tea-picking operas in Guangxi.”可推知，高铁上的非遗展示包含采茶戏，对应思维导图(1)的内容；根据第4段“They also help tourism.”可推知，非遗列车的好处之一是助力旅游业，对应思维导图(2)的内容；根据第5段“QR codes can link to more digital information. These help passengers learn about ICH at their own speed. They can keep learning after the trip.”可推知，二维码能帮助乘客按自身节奏学习非遗知识，对应思维导图(3)的内容。 4．篇章结构题。文章第1段总起，引出“非遗列车”的核心话题；第2至5段分别介绍非遗列车的实例、传播作用、附加价值、现存问题及解决方法，属于分述部分；第6段总结全文，点明非遗列车的文化意义与启示。因此文章为总-分-总结构，对应①/②③④⑤/⑥。 5．观点态度题。根据文章第6段“The success of ICH trains teaches us useful lessons for protecting culture around the world. It tells us innovation and tradition can work together. They can keep cultural heritage alive for young people in the future.”可推知，作者肯定了非遗列车的价值与作用，对其持支持态度。 Redingly Activity Center Do you want to keep fit, meet people and have fun?

How could anybody be unaware of entertaining an angel? I’ve never thought that angelic qualities could hide under very ordinary voices and in everyday bodies. My angel, as it turned out, hid inside the little body of my school teacher, Miss McKenzie. To me she was always a little old lady, with her grey hair framing a round rosy face and caught up in an old-fashioned bun (发髻) on top of her head. Although I enjoyed Miss McKenzie’s approval (赞同), I never really felt very close to her. I had never asked her advice as to what I should do when I left school. Surely there was only one thing to do: Get a job and make money as quickly as possible. But Miss McKenzie had other ideas. We in our house knew nothing of scholarships for fatherless children. The idea of a child from a working-class family going to college was the very thing of storybooks. Unknown to us, she forced the headmaster to put my name forward for a special scholarship open to children who showed a gift, and who would receive further education. He agreed, although he was a bit worried about the cost of keeping me at college for a whole year. No earnings from me, and costs and clothes to be covered, for, of course, only the fees (学费) would be paid if I won. Miss McKenzie brushed all argument aside. To this day I can remember my complete surprise when, on being asked if she felt I had any special qualities, this elderly teacher banged the desk with her hand, and declared (断言) in an American saying I never thought she knew, “I’d stake (以……打赌) my bottom dollar on this girl!” I shook at the passion (激情) in her voice, and at her trust in me. “What if I fail her?” I thought to myself. “What if she has to pay all the money back if I let her down?” I had a sense of responsibility and I shouldn’t let her down. The time at college went by quickly. At the end of my year at college, I was able to lay before her the college gold medal as the year’s top student and a whole pile of awards. And suddenly as I looked at her, and saw her eyes shining with pride behind the gold-rimmed glasses, I realized how widely she had thrown open the door of chance for me. And I knew for the first time what the phrase “entertaining angels unaware” meant. For there, standing before me in class, was my very own angel, Miss McKenzie. —An excerpt from Shoes Were for Sunday by Molly Weir 1．The writer writes paragraphs 2-5 in order to ________. A．explain why she always kept a safe distance from Miss McKenzie B．compare the inner qualities of Miss McKenzie with her ordinary appearance C．point out that she and Miss McKenzie both came from an ordinary family D．show the influence of the strong trust Miss McKenzie had in her 2．The underlined sentence in paragraph 3 shows that it was ________ for a child from a working-class family to go to college. A．highly impossible B．of no use C．quite common D．of great importance 3．What does the underlined word “responsibility” mean? A．The courage to face danger. B．The plan to solve problems. C．The chance to achieve dreams. D．The duty to do something well. 4．In paragraph 6, the writer felt ________ when she heard Miss McKenzie’s passionate voice. A．surprised and encouraged B．ashamed and unwilling C．uncertain and stressed D．worried and purposeful 5．The writer’s main purpose of writing this passage is to ________. A．think back on her schooldays and her past achievements B．express her thankfulness to one of her school teachers C．stress the importance of equal chance of education D．encourage readers to find the angels around them 【答案】1．B 2．A 3．D 4．D 5．B 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章通过回忆学校老师Miss McKenzie帮助“我”获得奖学金并进入大学的故事，表达了作者对这位老师的感激之情，并点明“entertaining angels unaware”的含义：身边看似普通的人，可能正是帮助自己的天使。 1．第2段描写Miss McKenzie外表普通，第3-5段描写她主动帮助作者并坚定信任作者的行为，通过这些段落展现外表与内在品质的对比。 2．第3段画线句“The idea of a child from a working-class family going to college was the very thing of storybooks.”意思是：工人阶级家庭的孩子上大学，简直就是故事书里才会有的事。这说明在当时看来，这对工人阶级家庭的孩子来说几乎是不可能的。 3．第6段中“I had a sense of responsibility and I shouldn’t let her down.”结合语境，“我”担心如果失败会让Miss McKenzie失望，因此感到自己有责任做好这件事，不辜负她的信任。“responsibility”在此表示“把某事做好的责任”。 4．第6段中，作者听到麦肯齐小姐充满激情的声音和对自己坚定的信任后，感到震惊，同时也产生了责任感，心想不能让她失望。这体现出作者既担心自己可能失败，又下定决心要努力做好，因此“worried and purposeful”最符合她的感受。 5．全文围绕Miss McKenzie对作者的信任、帮助和影响展开，结尾称她为“my very own angel, Miss McKenzie”，明确表达了对这位老师的感激与怀念。因此作者写作的主要目的是表达对一位学校老师的感谢。 In many areas of life, people compete even when it does not benefit them. Office workers stay late at work to avoid looking lazy. On social media, people feel pressed to post perfect photos. These situations all come from a problem called the theater effect, which explains why it is hard for people to stop competing, even when it is unnecessary. The theater effect happens when one person tries to do better, forcing others to follow. In the end, everyone works harder, but no one truly benefits. Imagine watching a movie—if the people in front stand up, those behind must stand too. Finally, everyone is standing, but the view remains the same. A well-known experiment at Stanford University tested this idea. Researchers invited 200 people to bid(竞标) for a $100 bill. The highest bidder won, but the second-highest still had to pay. At first, bids were small, but as the price neared $100, people refused to stop. Some even bid more than $100 just to avoid losing their earlier bids. This irrational behavior shows that once competition begins, people realize that it’s hard to stop competing, even when it no longer makes sense. The theater effect comes from early human survival instincts(本能). Back then, the dopamine system in our brain made us feel good about short-term success, like catching food, because it ensured survival. Today, this same system drives us to aim for victory in competitions—even where the results are meaningless. However, modern life is different. Today, while basic needs are no longer a big problem for us, we should learn to think clearly. Then how can we stop this kind of useless competition? First, we should know that we don’t need to win all the time to prove our value. Real growth means doing better than before, not better than others. Second, we should take a moment to ask ourselves, “Are we doing it because we truly enjoy it, or just because we are afraid to be left behind?” Another important point is to aim for meaningful goals, not just to win. Focus on what truly matters, and feel peace in your heart—that is how we find real happiness. So next time you feel pressed to “stand up”, just because others do, ask yourself: Is this really the best choice for me? 1．According to the passage, which is probably the example of the theater effect? A．A family enjoys a quiet dinner without surfing the internet. B．A company gives praise to workers for their continual efforts. C．People set a long-term goal to exercise more for better health. D．Students sign up for more classes because others are doing so. 2．What does the word“irrational” in Paragraph 3 most probably mean? A．unreasonable. B．important. C．meaningful. D．beneficial. 3．Why does the writer mention the Stanford University experiment? A．To show how people can wisely manage their money in competitions. B．To prove that people are naturally good at avoiding financial losses. C．To explain how competition can push people into making unwise decisions. D．To explain why being the highest bidder is always a bad idea. 4．The writer probably agrees that ________. A．joining in competitions is a good way to show your value B．it is wise to stop and think before joining in a competition C．competition is important and always helps us move forward D．following others is a safe way to avoid making wrong choices 5．What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage? A．To compare research findings on over-competition. B．To guide people to go for more successful achievements. C．To encourage people to care less about their basic needs. D．To advise readers to make choices that truly suit themselves. 【答案】1．D 2．A 3．C 4．B 5．D 【导语】本文是一篇议论文，主要介绍了“剧场效应”，解释了人们在不必要的情况下依然参与竞争的现象，通过斯坦福大学实验佐证观点，并呼吁人们理性看待竞争，做出适合自己的选择。 1．根据文章第二段“The theater effect happens when one person tries to do better, forcing others to follow.”可知，核心特征是“因他人行为而被迫跟随”。选项D描述学生因为别人这样做而报名更多课程，符合这一特征。 2．根据文章第三段“Some even bid more than $100 just to avoid losing their earlier bids. This irrational behavior shows that... it no longer makes sense.”可知，为了赢100美元而花费超过100美元是不理智、不合理的行为，unreasonable意为“不合理的”，符合题意。 3．根据文章第三段“This irrational behavior shows that once competition begins, people realize that it's hard to stop competing, even when it no longer makes sense.”可知，作者提到该实验是为了说明竞争如何促使人们做出不明智的决定。 4．根据文章第五段“we should take a moment to ask ourselves...”以及最后一段“ask yourself: Is this really the best choice for me?”可知，作者主张在参与竞争前应冷静思考，审视自己的真实需求。选项B表示“在加入竞争前停下来思考是明智的”，符合作者观点。 5．通读全文，文章首先介绍了“剧场效应”及其弊端，分析了其产生的原因，最后在第五、六段重点提出了建议，可知作者的主要目的是建议读者做出真正适合自己的选择，避免无意义的竞争。 On February 22, Guo Hongyi, an 8-year-old boy, solved a 4-level Tower of Hanoi with one hand in 4.305 seconds and set a new world record. Tower of Hanoi is a maths game which has been popular for centuries. To solve a Tower of Hanoi puzzle, it needs your brain, eyes and hands to work together. Tower of Hanoi is made up of three poles and a stack of discs. The discs should be placed from the largest on the bottom to the smallest on the top. The way to play the game is to move the whole stack from Pole (a) to Pole (c). There are three simple rules as follows: ◆Only one disc can be moved at a time. ◆You can only move the top disc of a stack. ◆Each disc can be placed on any pole, but it can’t be placed on top of a smaller disc. Tower of Hanoi was invented by a French mathematician called Edouard Lucas in 1883. His idea came from an ancient story: In an Eastern temple (寺庙) with three huge poles, the god asked the priests (僧侣) to move a stack of 64 golden discs from Pole One to Pole Three. Edouard found the maths problem in the story interesting and tried to work out the minimum (最小的) number of moves to solve the puzzle. Finally, he came up with the formula (公式): 2n-1, where “n” is the number of discs. According to the formula, even if the priests made one move every second, it would take 500 billion years to finish. It was an impossible task for them. Nowadays, Tower of Hanoi is used in many fields, such as the psychological research and computer science. It has made great contributions to humans’ lives. So next time you’re looking for a fun and challenging puzzle game, give Tower of Hanoi a try. 1．What is the main purpose of the first paragraph? A．To explain how to play the Tower of Hanoi. B．To introduce a new world record set by an 8-year-old boy. C．To tell readers the history of the Tower of Hanoi. D．To show the importance of the Tower of Hanoi in science. 2．According to the rules of Tower of Hanoi, which of the following pictures shows the correct move? A． B． C． D． 3．The formula created by Edouard is used to know the ________. A．fewest moves B．sizes of discs C．fewest discs D．speed of moves 4．According to the passage, what is required to solve a Tower of Hanoi puzzle? A．Strong physical strength and speed. B．Special tools and equipment (设备). C．Knowledge of physics and mathematics. D．The coordination (配合) of brain, eyes, and hands. 5．Why does the writer write the passage? A．To show how popular Tower of Hanoi is. B．To introduce the history of Tower of Hanoi. C．To attract more people to play Tower of Hanoi. D．To explain why Tower of Hanoi is widely used. 【答案】1．B 2．D 3．A 4．D 5．C 【导语】文章先介绍8岁男孩郭弘奕创下四层汉诺塔世界纪录，然后讲解了游戏规则、起源与数学公式，说明其多领域价值，文末推荐大家体验这款趣味益智游戏。 1．第一段报道了8岁男孩郭弘奕用单手在4.305秒内完成4层汉诺塔并创造新世界纪录的事实，目的是介绍这项新纪录。 2．根据“Only one disc can be moved at a time.”，“You can only move the top disc of a stack.”和“Each disc can be placed on any pole, but it can’t be placed on top of a smaller disc.”可知，汉诺塔的规则是：每次只能移动1个圆盘，只能移动顶部的圆盘； 不能把大圆盘放在更小的圆盘上方。对应选项D。A选项把大圆盘放在小的圆盘上方，错误；B选项一次移动了2个圆盘，错误；C选项移动了中间的圆盘，错误。 3．根据第四段“Edouard found the maths problem...tried to work out the minimum number of moves to solve the puzzle. Finally, he came up with the formula: 2n-1”可知，公式用来计算完成汉诺塔所需的“最少移动次数”。 4．根据第二段“To solve a Tower of Hanoi puzzle, it needs your brain, eyes and hands to work together.”可知，解决汉诺塔需要“大脑、眼睛和手的配合”。 5．根据最后一段“So next time you’re looking for a fun and challenging puzzle game, give Tower of Hanoi a try.”，作者鼓励读者尝试汉诺塔，所以目的是“吸引更多人来玩”。 The list for the sixth-grade basketball team was announced (宣布) online. I was a little worried because I knew how much my 12-year-old son wanted to make the team. I read the list of 13 names for a few minutes. Finally, I had to tell myself that my son wasn’t on the list. I felt sad. I wished it would be about victory. Like every parent, I love to say, “You did it!” Instead, I had to give my son a speech to comfort him, which was a lot less exciting, but probably more important. It was not really a speech, but a further discussion about spirit, courage and not giving up. Although it was painful for me to see myself so disappointed (失望), I needed to keep my own feelings in check. Sure, I wanted to call the coach to say he made a big mistake, but I would not. Nor would I let my son know that I thought it unfair. Instead, I put my own feelings aside and let my son have a safe place to calm down. And when he was done, I needed to encourage him to continue to improve skills. That day was a loss, but the only way to get another win was to put on his trainers and get on the basketball court again. My son is 15 years old now. And, after being cut from the team for three years in a row (连续地), he got to see his name on the list for the high school team. Last week, my husband and I watched him play in his first game. The smile on his face when he made his first shot is something I will never forget. After so many failures, it was a win that didn’t come easy for him. And it wouldn’t have happened if he had given up trying. 1．Why did the writer feel sad at first? A．Because her son didn’t feel confident. B．Because her son didn’t make the basketball team. C．Because her son decided to stop playing basketball. D．Because her son failed in a few basketball matches. 2．What does the underlined part “keep my own feelings in check” in Paragraph 3 mean? A．Hide my own feeling. B．Hurt my own feeling. C．Follow my own feeling. D．Show my own feeling. 3．What did the mother do after her son failed to make the team? A．She called the coach to complain. B．She told her son it was unfair. C．She encouraged him to keep trying. D．She advised him to give up basketball. 4．What can be inferred (推断) about the writer’s son? A．He felt unhappy with his parents. B．He stopped working on his basketball skills. C．He played in a high school team at the age of 12． D．He was finally accepted by his high school team. 5．Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A．The Best Basketball Player. B．Mother’s Love for Her Son. C．Success Comes after Failure. D．The Importance of Teamwork. 【答案】1．B 2．A 3．C 4．D 5．C 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述作者的儿子连续三年落选篮球队，母亲克制自身失落情绪，不断鼓励孩子坚持练习篮球，最终儿子成功入选高中篮球队的故事，阐释失败之后坚持终会迎来成功的道理。 1．根据文章第二段中“Finally, I had to tell myself that my son wasn't on the list. I felt sad.（最后，我不得不告诉自己，我儿子的名字不在名单上。我感到很难过。）”可知，作者感到难过是因为儿子没有入选篮球队。 2．根据文章第三段中“Instead, I put my own feelings aside and let my son have a safe place to calm down.（相反，我把自己的感受放在一边，让我儿子有一个安全的地方冷静下来。）”可知，作者需要控制自己的情绪，不表现出来，即“隐藏自己的感受”。 3．根据文章第三段中“And when he was done, I needed to encourage him to continue to improve skills.（当他冷静下来后，我需要鼓励他继续提高技能。）”以及“That day was a loss, but the only way to get another win was to put on his trainers and get on the basketball court again.（那天是一次失败，但获得另一次胜利的唯一方法是穿上运动鞋，再次踏上篮球场。）”可知，母亲鼓励儿子继续努力。 4．根据文章第四段中“My son is 15 years old now. And... he got to see his name on the list for the high school team.（我儿子现在15岁了。并且……他看到了自己的名字出现在高中篮球队的名单上。）”可知，儿子最终被高中篮球队录取了。 5．通读全文可知，文章主要讲述了儿子在多次落选篮球队后，没有放弃，坚持练习，最终在高中入选球队并获得成功的故事。文章最后一句“And it wouldn’t have happened if he had given up trying.（如果他放弃尝试，这一切就不会发生。）”点明了主题：成功源于失败后的坚持。 People question whether social media (媒体) is making modern society less empathetic (有同感的). Some studies show that heavy social media users are less empathetic, while others suggest quite the opposite. To learn more about the question, we asked over 1,250 American participants (参与者) how often they checked social media. They also completed questionnaires (问卷) where they decided whether they have the qualities that researchers call empathy, such as thinking from other people’s point of view, feeling worried for other people in trouble, and feeling bad when others feel bad. Our study found that the more social media people reported using, the lower their levels of empathy were. This finding didn’t change much according to the type of social media they use, their gender (性别), or education. However, we only asked American adults. Is it possible that the relationship we found would not be true elsewhere? Indeed, researchers in other areas have found different results. Researchers in the UK, Spain, and the Netherlands have shown that, in their countries, the higher people used social media, the higher empathy they had. An Indian study found no relationship between the two. To learn the big picture, we compared (比较) all these studies. We found that the relationship between social media use and empathy differed based on two things: age and nationality. In general, studies carried out in Europe found a positive (积极的) connection between social media use and empathy, while studies in the U.S. found no meaningful or negative (消极的) connection. Besides, research done with children under 18 showed a positive connection, while research with adults found no connection. Cultural differences may explain the difference. Americans are more likely to post news about their personal achievements online. It is no surprise that Americans who use social media often are not developing their empathy skills. But populations outside of America appear to use social media for different purposes, including strengthening friendships. For them, more social media use is connected with being more empathetic. Perhaps people’s purposes for using social media can tell us more about their character. 1．What is the main purpose of the research described in the passage? A．To prove that social media makes people less empathetic. B．To study the influence of social media on American adults. C．To compare the empathy levels of different nationalities. D．To discover the relationship between social media use and empathy. 2．Which of the following factors (因素) about the participants was important for the first study? A．Age. B．Gender. C．Interest. D．Income. 3．According to the passage, which of the following statements is true? A．All studies show that heavy social media users are less empathetic. B．The relationship between social media use and empathy is the same in all countries. C．Research showed a positive connection between social media use and empathy in the UK, Spain and the Netherlands. D．American adults using social media often are more likely to develop their empathy skills. 4．Which statement will the writer probably agree with? A．Indians like to show off online. B．Children are more empathetic than adults. C．Americans are more empathetic than Europeans. D．Reasons behind social media use show a person’s character. 5．Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A．The Positive Influence of Social Media on Empathy. B．Why Americans Are Less Empathetic on Social Media. C．Social Media and Empathy: A Complex (复杂的) Relationship. D．How to Develop Empathy Skills through Social Media. 【答案】1．D 2．B 3．C 4．D 5．C 【导语】本文围绕社交媒体使用与共情能力二者的关联展开多国对比研究，分析年龄、国籍、文化差异带来的不同研究结果，并从使用目的角度解释差异成因。 1．根据原文第一段与第二段开头“People question whether social media is making modern society less empathetic…To learn more about the question”，这项研究旨在探究社交媒体使用和共情能力之间的关系。 2．根据原文第三段“This finding didn’t change much according to the type of social media they use, their gender, or education”，性别、受教育程度都不影响本次美国成人研究的结论，文中未提及兴趣、收入，因此性别是本次研究关注的参与者相关因素。 3．根据原文第四段“Researchers in the UK, Spain, and the Netherlands have shown that, in their countries, the higher people used social media, the higher empathy they had”，英国、西班牙、荷兰的研究显示二者呈正向关联，表述正确。 4．根据原文最后一句“Perhaps people’s purposes for using social media can tell us more about their character”，作者认同人们使用社交媒体的动机能反映自身性格。 5．全文介绍多国研究得出社交媒体与共情存在正向、负向、无关联等多种结论，二者关系十分复杂，C选项贴合文章核心。 Twenty years ago, a new version (版本) of The Peony Pavilion (《牡丹亭》), a great work of Chinese Kunqu Opera that includes music, poetry, beautiful clothes, and smooth actions, came out in Taiwan, China, causing great excitement and then touring worldwide. This was not a usual version. Known as the youth version of The Peony Pavilion, it hoped to bring new life into the traditional art form. “Many young people saw Kunqu for the first time through this play and later fell in love with it,” said Bai Xianyong, the producer of the play. Actually, Bai’s love for bringing back Kunqu wasn’t an accident. “At that time, many Kunqu masters were nearing retirement (退休), and there was a real danger that this art form would face a lack (缺乏) of skill and tradition,” Bai said. “To make it stay active, we need to attract young people back to the theater as soon as possible.” In 2003, a group of young actors and actresses in their 20s joined Bai’s training camp to learn Kunqu’s skills. “The main actor practiced walking on knees until his knees were hurt, and the main actress wore out (磨坏) more than ten pairs of shoes during the training,” Bai said. “Finally, in 2006, the play triumphed across four University of California schools, with a full house at each show. Many students recommended the opera to their family and friends, and some began researching Kunqu’s history for their school projects.” Recently, Bai opened a personal account (账号) online, where he shares his thoughts with over 95,000 fans. “I want to know what young people in China think about traditional culture and hear their voices,” said Bai. “We have entered the age of AI. In this fast-changing world, it is highly important for young people to value traditional Chinese culture. The base of Chinese culture must be strong to prevent it from being controlled by high technology.” 1．What was special about Bai Xianyong’s version of The Peony Pavilion? A．It came out by accident. B．It attracted young people. C．It was a traditional art form. D．It invited well-known actors. 2．Why did Bai want to bring back Kunqu? A．To keep Kunqu culture alive. B．To remember Kunqu masters. C．To develop his acting skills. D．To learn new theater styles. 3．What does the underlined word “triumphed” in Paragraph 4 most probably mean? A．changed its style B．faced big challenges C．achieved great success D．attracted few people 4．What do you think of the training for the play? A．Easy but boring. B．Hard but meaningful. C．Quick but tiring. D．Relaxing but unsafe. 5．What is Bai’s purpose in opening his personal account? A．To introduce his plays. B．To discuss traditional life. C．To teach AI knowledge. D．To bridge youth and tradition. 【答案】1．B 2．A 3．C 4．B 5．D 【导语】本文介绍了白先勇推出的《牡丹亭》青春版让昆曲这一传统艺术吸引年轻人、重焕生机的过程，以及他为传承昆曲文化所做的努力。 1．细节理解题。根据第二段“Many young people saw Kunqu for the first time through this play and later fell in love with it,”可知，这个版本的特别之处是吸引了年轻人。故选B。 2．细节理解题。根据第三段“To make it stay active, we need to attract young people back to the theater as soon as possible.”可知，白先勇想让昆曲文化延续下去。故选A。 3．词句猜测题。根据第四段“with a full house at each show.

So how can challenges in your life bring out meaningful growth? 1 When you’re experiencing something hard, a strong and encouraging support system can make a big difference. 2 You can turn to your friends, family and community to get the support you need to keep moving forward. 3 Getting enough rest, eating well, and exercising more are helpful ways to take care of yourself during difficult moments. According to Healthline, activities like mindful breathing, listening to your favorite music, or going outside to change your focus can also help you a lot. These common acts can do wonders for your overall health. Another important way is to put your heart into what you can control. In life, it's easy to get worried about what you can't master. 4 That can help you keep going rather than feeling helpless. Think of challenges as locked doors: staring at the door won't open it, but looking for the key—through your actions—just might. Your mindset (思维模式) also plays a big role in how you face challenges. Developing a growth mindset makes you believe that your abilities can improve through effort. 5 Accept that they are a normal part of life, and you can face them more bravely and actively. Remember, you have the ability to overcome (克服) challenges in life. By staying calm and focusing on what you can do, you can deal with even the most difficult situations with confidence and strength.
