At 74, Margaret Ellis found herself asking what she should do next to keep both her mind active and her body strong. After retiring from her long career as a literature teacher, she suddenly had more free time than ever before. She could either return to the classroom as a student by taking an art history course, or try an initial training programme in Nordic walking (北欧健走). After thinking it over, she chose the latter.
On the first day of the training, Margaret arrived at the park with her new poles under her arm and took her place in the group as if it were part of her usual morning routine. Yet only when the session began did she realise how long it had been since she had last learned something entirely new.
Nordic walking was harder than she had expected. It required rhythm, balance, posture, and coordination between the arms and legs. Several times, she lost the pattern and had to start again. But instead of feeling discouraged, she tried to treat the movements like a performance. Years earlier, she had learned folk dance and enjoyed hiking, and those experiences helped her find the needed rhythm. “I listened for the rhythm,” she said, “and then I let my body follow.”
Physical activity had always been an important part of Margaret’s life. She had once been a swimmer, a cyclist, and a teacher who enjoyed organising school sports events. But what drew her most strongly to Nordic walking was something personal. Her father had loved long walks and often said, “Walk first. Answers come later.” Whenever life felt confusing, he would go outdoors and return calmer than before. Remembering him, Margaret felt she was not just learning a new sport. She was reconnecting with an old family habit.
Although Margaret joined the programme as a student, she soon became an inspiration to the rest of the group. When younger participants complained about tired arms or cold weather, they noticed her quietly adjusting her poles and starting again.
4. How did Margaret probably feel on the first day of the training?
A. Proud and certain. B. Relaxed and optimistic.
C. Excited but nervous. D. Surprised but disappointed.
5. What helped Margaret gradually adjust to the training?
A. Her previous teaching experience.
B. Her strong wish to win others’ respect.
C. Her past experience in dance and hiking.
D. Her habit of exercising alone in the park.
6. What can we learn about Margaret from the text?
A. She influenced others by the way she acted.
B. She encouraged her students to join the training.
C. She cared more about technique than personal growth.
D. She joined the training to reconnect with her family habit.
7. What message does the author deliver in the text?
A. Practice makes perfect.
B. Health always comes first.
C. It is never too late to begin.
D. Parents shape who we become.

Amid stretches of green space scattered among Manhattan high-rises, one special device drew visitors’ attention on a Monday morning. It was a robotic lawn-mower (割草机) given the name “Belawncé.”
Resembling an oversized household cleaning robot with heavy-duty wheels, it moves on its own with the support of an AI camera system that works like human eyes. After working two to four hours cutting grass, the machine will return to its charging station automatically.
Over recent months, this electric robotic lawn-mower has taken charge of grass-cutting work for the main lawn of Bryant Park, a small yet heavily-visited public park. Toshi Yano, the park’s manager, noted in an interview that the robotic lawn-mower has proven reliable, safe and more eco-friendly than gas-fueled mowers operated by human workers.
Belawncé offers us a glimpse of both advantages and troubles when robots are applied to outdoor tasks like garden maintenance. Bryant Park had tested several other robotic lawn-mower models before, yet those earlier machines were finicky. The former machines would get stuck in certain spots within the park. To receive satellite signals for positioning, sometimes the park had to place one receiver on-site and another on top of a nearby office building. Since this spring, Bryant Park has adopted a new model produced by Sunseeker. It requires far less human help as time goes by.
Unlike its famous pop-star namesake, Belawncé and its fellow robotic lawn-mowers are not welcomed by every worker. Nanci Fioravanti is the landscape director of Green-Wood, a well-known green park in Brooklyn where two robotic lawn-mowers are in use. She has had to comfort her employees, who felt worried about job losses caused by automation. Fioravanti also pointed out that such robotic lawn-mowers cannot perform well on steep ground in Green-Wood, or in spots where thick tree leaves block their signal.
Park staff made certain that Belawncé could move around or pause for passers-by as well as local wildlife. “Either the birds, the AI system, or both combined are doing their jobs properly and keeping out of each other’s way,” Yano commented.
8. What can we learn about Belawncé from the first two paragraphs?
A. It is powered by gasoline. B. It relies on AI equipment for self-operation.
C. It is designed in the image of human beings. D. It needs workers to direct its movement all the time.
9. The underlined word “finicky” in Paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to ________.
A. efficient B. flexible C. accessible D. tricky
10. What message is conveyed in Paragraph 5?
A. The limits of robotic lawn-mowers. B. The wide popularity of robotic devices.
C. The high production cost of robot mowers. D. Ways to improve local park landscape.
11. What is the main purpose of this passage?
A. To argue against using robots in public parks.
B. To compare different kinds of gardening equipment.
C. To advertise new products from the Sunseeker company.
D. To introduce the practical application of a robotic mower.
D
In the US, almost 100 million people report being birdwatchers. In the UK, hundreds of thousands participate in the annual “Big Garden Birdwatch.” Beyond the obvious skills of identifying birds, is it possible that birdwatching is beneficially rewiring our brains? A just-published study in the Journal of Neuroscience provides some of the best evidence to date that this popular hobby can do just that.
Scientists in Toronto were curious about brain differences between expert birdwatchers and beginners. To study them, they recruited 58 adults across a large age range, half expert bird identifiers, half less skillful. Using MRI, they studied brain structure and activation while participants identified birds. Compared with beginners, experts showed more compact brain structure in regions involved in attention and visual perception. The more compact the structure, the better the ability to identify birds. Interestingly, these same regions lit up on imaging when experts identified less familiar birds.
While this was a small non-interventional study, it suggests that birdwatching to the point of expertise may rewire and restructure the brain. This builds on another study — “Creative experiences and brain clocks,” published in October 2025 in Nature Communications — which showed that people with more creative experience had more youthful-looking brains, directly related to their degree of expertise. More generally, participating in cognitively enriching activities may help delay dementia (痴呆症) onset; a Neurology study found that more engagement in such activities lowered Alzheimer’s risk by 38% and delayed diagnosis by 5 years on average for those eventually affected.
Returning specifically to birdwatching, additional reasons support its brain benefits. Social connections top the list of brain-healthy factors, so joining a birdwatching group directly helps. The hobby promotes physical activity, an obvious brain benefit. Spending more time in nature, and stepping away from digital devices, also improves overall brain health. Finally, birdwatching may reduce stress — crucial because chronic stress impairs cognition and harms neural wiring.
Much remains to learn about birdwatching’s potential for brain function and health. Yet while spending your day hunting a hummingbird or rare raptor does not replace a healthy diet, good sleep, and regular exercise, it may still be rewiring your brain for the better.
12. What brain differences did the study find between expert birdwatchers and beginners?
A. Beginners had smaller visual brain areas. B. Beginners were better at identifying birds.
C. Experts thought more thoroughly for unfamiliar birds. D. Experts had more tightly-organized attention brain areas.
13. Why does the author mention the study “Creative experiences and brain clocks”?
A. To shift to a new subject. B. To support the above point.
C. To offer background for the topic. D. To contrast with the previous study.
14. How does birdwatching benefit brains according to paragraph 4?
A. It removes cognitive harm from stress.
B. It helps people give up digital devices.
C. Its social function best boosts brain health.
D. Its physical benefits outweigh mental ones.
15. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. What Birdwatching Can Do for Your Brain?
B. Why Expert Birders Have Better Attention Skills?
C. Why Creative Experiences May Delay Dementia?
D. How MRI Reveals the Secrets of Birdwatchers’ Brains?

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。
Doctors often recommend about 150 minutes of exercise each week to maintain good health. This may sound like a lot, but it can be broken down into about 30 minutes a day, 5 days a week. For people with busy schedules, even this can seem difficult. However, experts say that exercise does not need to be done all at once. ____16____
This idea is known as “exercise snacking”. It means doing small amounts of physical activity at different times instead of one long workout. Simple actions like taking the stairs can contribute to your total exercise time. ____17____ These small efforts can add up and help improve overall health.
When exercise time is short, high-intensity interval training (HIIT) can be especially useful. ____18____ These are followed by periods of rest or lighter activity. HIIT can burn calories quickly and help build strength. Meanwhile, regular aerobic (有氧的) exercise is beneficial to heart health, especially when it lasts at least 10 minutes.
____19____ Combining different types of activities, like strength training and aerobic exercise, can bring greater benefits than focusing on only one type. Together, they help improve fitness, increase energy, and support long-term health. For people who spend long hours sitting, it is important to stay active during the day.
Other changes, such as using a standing desk or sitting on an exercise ball, can also improve posture and encourage movement. ____20____ In general, regular physical activity helps improve heart health, strengthen the body, and reduce the risk of diseases.
A. A balanced approach to exercise is also essential.
B. Try one type of exercise and stick to it for a long time.
C. It can be divided into shorter periods throughout the day.
D. These small adjustments can make a difference over time.
E. This type of exercise includes short bursts of strong effort.
F. Walking during breaks or standing up more often also helps.
G. It is easier to find 30 minutes of extra time than an hour or more.

Back home, I decided to ____27____ them thank-you cookies. My daughter helped me ____28____ the ingredients. We also made cards to show our ____29____.
When we arrived at Jane’s house, I ____30____ a small angel sculpture standing beside the door, her arms stretched out as if to say “Welcome.” Jane opened the door with a ____31____ and invited us in. “I thought of your family the minute I heard the house sold,” she said.

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
The summer heat hung heavy in the air as Lily moved into her new apartment with her 8-year-old daughter, Mia. Exhausted from packing and moving, they were eager to settle down and enjoy a quiet life.
However, their peace was short-lived. Their next-door neighbor, Mr Whitmore, was an elderly man who lived alone. Every evening, he would play the piano loudly, filling the entire building with music that lasted until midnight. Mia, who needed to go to bed early for school, often tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. Lily tried to ignore it at first, but after a week of sleepless nights, she decided to talk to Mr Whitmore.
One afternoon, Lily knocked on Mr Whitmore’s door. When he opened it, his face was cold and uninviting. “Excuse me, sir,” Lily said politely, “I’m your new neighbor, Lily, and my daughter, Mia, lives with me. We’ve been having trouble sleeping because of the piano music in the evenings. Could you possibly play a little softer or stop earlier?”
On hearing Lily’s request, Mr Whitmore’s expression darkened. “This is my house, and I’ll play my piano whenever I want,” he shouted. “I’ve lived here for 20 years, and no one has ever complained before. You should learn to adapt.” With that, he shut the door loudly in her face. Lily felt angry and helpless. She went back to her apartment, where Mia was sitting on the sofa, rubbing her eyes. “Mommy, I’m so tired,” Mia said quietly. Lily hugged her tightly, determined to find a way to solve the problem.
The next morning, as Lily was taking out the trash, she saw Mr Whitmore struggling to carry a heavy box of books. He moved unsteadily, and the box slipped from his hands, scattering (散开) books all over the floor. Lily hesitated for a moment — part of her wanted to walk away, but her heart told her to help.
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。
Therefore, Lily hurried over to lend Mr Whitmore a helping hand.

The next day, Lily was surprised when she heard a soft knock on her door.

At 74, Margaret Ellis found herself asking what she should do next to keep both her mind active and her body strong. After retiring from her long career as a literature teacher, she suddenly had more free time than ever before. She could either return to the classroom as a student by taking an art history course, or try an initial training programme in Nordic walking (北欧健走). After thinking it over, she chose the latter.
On the first day of the training, Margaret arrived at the park with her new poles under her arm and took her place in the group as if it were part of her usual morning routine. Yet only when the session began did she realise how long it had been since she had last learned something entirely new.
Nordic walking was harder than she had expected. It required rhythm, balance, posture, and coordination between the arms and legs. Several times, she lost the pattern and had to start again. But instead of feeling discouraged, she tried to treat the movements like a performance. Years earlier, she had learned folk dance and enjoyed hiking, and those experiences helped her find the needed rhythm. “I listened for the rhythm,” she said, “and then I let my body follow.”
Physical activity had always been an important part of Margaret’s life. She had once been a swimmer, a cyclist, and a teacher who enjoyed organising school sports events. But what drew her most strongly to Nordic walking was something personal. Her father had loved long walks and often said, “Walk first. Answers come later.” Whenever life felt confusing, he would go outdoors and return calmer than before. Remembering him, Margaret felt she was not just learning a new sport. She was reconnecting with an old family habit.
Although Margaret joined the programme as a student, she soon became an inspiration to the rest of the group. When younger participants complained about tired arms or cold weather, they noticed her quietly adjusting her poles and starting again.
4. How did Margaret probably feel on the first day of the training?
A. Proud and certain. B. Relaxed and optimistic.
C. Excited but nervous. D. Surprised but disappointed.
5. What helped Margaret gradually adjust to the training?
A. Her previous teaching experience.
B. Her strong wish to win others’ respect.
C. Her past experience in dance and hiking.
D. Her habit of exercising alone in the park.
6. What can we learn about Margaret from the text?
A. She influenced others by the way she acted.
B. She encouraged her students to join the training.
C. She cared more about technique than personal growth.
D. She joined the training to reconnect with her family habit.
7. What message does the author deliver in the text?
A. Practice makes perfect.
B. Health always comes first.
C. It is never too late to begin.
D. Parents shape who we become.
【答案】4. B 5. C 6. A 7. C

Amid stretches of green space scattered among Manhattan high-rises, one special device drew visitors’ attention on a Monday morning. It was a robotic lawn-mower (割草机) given the name “Belawncé.”
Resembling an oversized household cleaning robot with heavy-duty wheels, it moves on its own with the support of an AI camera system that works like human eyes. After working two to four hours cutting grass, the machine will return to its charging station automatically.
Over recent months, this electric robotic lawn-mower has taken charge of grass-cutting work for the main lawn of Bryant Park, a small yet heavily-visited public park. Toshi Yano, the park’s manager, noted in an interview that the robotic lawn-mower has proven reliable, safe and more eco-friendly than gas-fueled mowers operated by human workers.
Belawncé offers us a glimpse of both advantages and troubles when robots are applied to outdoor tasks like garden maintenance. Bryant Park had tested several other robotic lawn-mower models before, yet those earlier machines were finicky. The former machines would get stuck in certain spots within the park. To receive satellite signals for positioning, sometimes the park had to place one receiver on-site and another on top of a nearby office building. Since this spring, Bryant Park has adopted a new model produced by Sunseeker. It requires far less human help as time goes by.
Unlike its famous pop-star namesake, Belawncé and its fellow robotic lawn-mowers are not welcomed by every worker. Nanci Fioravanti is the landscape director of Green-Wood, a well-known green park in Brooklyn where two robotic lawn-mowers are in use. She has had to comfort her employees, who felt worried about job losses caused by automation. Fioravanti also pointed out that such robotic lawn-mowers cannot perform well on steep ground in Green-Wood, or in spots where thick tree leaves block their signal.
Park staff made certain that Belawncé could move around or pause for passers-by as well as local wildlife. “Either the birds, the AI system, or both combined are doing their jobs properly and keeping out of each other’s way,” Yano commented.
8. What can we learn about Belawncé from the first two paragraphs?
A. It is powered by gasoline. B. It relies on AI equipment for self-operation.
C. It is designed in the image of human beings. D. It needs workers to direct its movement all the time.
9. The underlined word “finicky” in Paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to ________.
A. efficient B. flexible C. accessible D. tricky
10. What message is conveyed in Paragraph 5?
A. The limits of robotic lawn-mowers. B. The wide popularity of robotic devices.
C. The high production cost of robot mowers. D. Ways to improve local park landscape.
11. What is the main purpose of this passage?
A. To argue against using robots in public parks.
B. To compare different kinds of gardening equipment.
C. To advertise new products from the Sunseeker company.
D. To introduce the practical application of a robotic mower.
【答案】8. B 9. D 10. A 11. D
【解析】
【导语】文章介绍了布莱恩特公园引入的一款名为“Belawncé”的机器人割草机。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Resembling an oversized household cleaning robot with heavy-duty wheels, it moves on its own with the support of an AI camera system that works like human eyes.(它看起来像一台大型家用清洁机器人,配有重型轮子,依靠类似人眼的AI摄像头系统自主移动)”可知,Belawncé依靠人工智能设备实现自主运行。
【9题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词所在句子和后文“Bryant Park had tested several other robotic lawn-mower models before, yet those earlier machines were finicky. The former machines would get stuck in certain spots within the park. To receive satellite signals for positioning, sometimes the park had to place one receiver on-site and another on top of a nearby office building.(布莱恩特公园此前曾测试过其他几种机器人割草机型号,但这些早期的机器运行很finicky,常常会在公园内的某些位置卡住。为了接收卫星信号进行定位,有时公园不得不在现场设置一个接收器,并在附近办公楼顶部再加装一个)”可知,之前的机器人割草机存在诸多问题,需要复杂的设置和操作,由此可推知,划线词finicky意为“难处理的,棘手的”,与D项意思相近。
【10题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第五段“Unlike its famous pop-star namesake, Belawncé and its fellow robotic lawn-mowers are not welcomed by every worker. Nanci Fioravanti is the landscape director of Green-Wood, a well-known green park in Brooklyn where two robotic lawn-mowers are in use. She has had to comfort her employees, who felt worried about job losses caused by automation. Fioravanti also pointed out that such robotic lawn-mowers cannot perform well on steep ground in Green-Wood, or in spots where thick tree leaves block their signal.(和其对应的著名流行明星同名者不同,Belawncé及其同类机器人割草机并非受到所有工人的欢迎。南西·菲奥拉万蒂(Nanci Fioravanti)是布鲁克林知名绿地公园格林伍德(Green-Wood)的景观总监,该公园正在使用两台机器人割草机。她不得不安抚那些担心自动化导致失业的员工。菲奥拉万蒂还指出,这类机器人割草机在格林伍德陡坡地带或树叶茂密遮挡信号的区域无法良好运行)”可知,第五段说明了机器人割草机的局限性。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文,结合第一段中“Amid stretches of green space scattered among Manhattan high-rises, one special device drew visitors’ attention on a Monday morning. It was a robotic lawn-mower (割草机) given the name “Belawncé.”(周一早晨,在曼哈顿高楼间散落的片片绿地中,一台特殊设备吸引了游客的注意。这是一台名为“Belawncé”的机器人割草机)”以及文章主要介绍了布莱恩特公园引入的一款名为“Belawncé”的机器人割草机,介绍了其特点、使用情况、优缺点以及人们对它的看法。由此可推知,作者写这篇文章的目的是介绍机器人割草机的实际应用。

In the US, almost 100 million people report being birdwatchers. In the UK, hundreds of thousands participate in the annual “Big Garden Birdwatch.” Beyond the obvious skills of identifying birds, is it possible that birdwatching is beneficially rewiring our brains? A just-published study in the Journal of Neuroscience provides some of the best evidence to date that this popular hobby can do just that.
Scientists in Toronto were curious about brain differences between expert birdwatchers and beginners. To study them, they recruited 58 adults across a large age range, half expert bird identifiers, half less skillful. Using MRI, they studied brain structure and activation while participants identified birds. Compared with beginners, experts showed more compact brain structure in regions involved in attention and visual perception. The more compact the structure, the better the ability to identify birds. Interestingly, these same regions lit up on imaging when experts identified less familiar birds.
While this was a small non-interventional study, it suggests that birdwatching to the point of expertise may rewire and restructure the brain. This builds on another study — “Creative experiences and brain clocks,” published in October 2025 in Nature Communications — which showed that people with more creative experience had more youthful-looking brains, directly related to their degree of expertise. More generally, participating in cognitively enriching activities may help delay dementia (痴呆症) onset; a Neurology study found that more engagement in such activities lowered Alzheimer’s risk by 38% and delayed diagnosis by 5 years on average for those eventually affected.
Returning specifically to birdwatching, additional reasons support its brain benefits. Social connections top the list of brain-healthy factors, so joining a birdwatching group directly helps. The hobby promotes physical activity, an obvious brain benefit. Spending more time in nature, and stepping away from digital devices, also improves overall brain health. Finally, birdwatching may reduce stress — crucial because chronic stress impairs cognition and harms neural wiring.
Much remains to learn about birdwatching’s potential for brain function and health. Yet while spending your day hunting a hummingbird or rare raptor does not replace a healthy diet, good sleep, and regular exercise, it may still be rewiring your brain for the better.
12. What brain differences did the study find between expert birdwatchers and beginners?
A. Beginners had smaller visual brain areas. B. Beginners were better at identifying birds.
C. Experts thought more thoroughly for unfamiliar birds. D. Experts had more tightly-organized attention brain areas.
13. Why does the author mention the study “Creative experiences and brain clocks”?
A. To shift to a new subject. B. To support the above point.
C. To offer background for the topic. D. To contrast with the previous study.
14. How does birdwatching benefit brains according to paragraph 4?
A. It removes cognitive harm from stress.
B. It helps people give up digital devices.
C. Its social function best boosts brain health.
D. Its physical benefits outweigh mental ones.
15. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. What Birdwatching Can Do for Your Brain?
B. Why Expert Birders Have Better Attention Skills?
C. Why Creative Experiences May Delay Dementia?
D. How MRI Reveals the Secrets of Birdwatchers’ Brains?
【答案】12. D 13. B 14. C 15. A
【解析】
【导语】主要介绍研究表明观鸟这项爱好能够重塑大脑结构,并从多方面阐述观鸟给大脑带来的各类益处。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Compared with beginners, experts showed more compact brain structure in regions involved in attention and visual perception. The more compact the structure, the better the ability to identify birds.(与新手相比,专家在负责注意力和视觉感知的脑区拥有更紧凑的大脑结构。结构越紧凑,识别鸟类的能力越强。)”可知,观鸟专家拥有组织更紧密的注意力相关脑区。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中的“While this was a small non-interventional study, it suggests that birdwatching to the point of expertise may rewire and restructure the brain. This builds on another study — “Creative experiences and brain clocks,” published in October 2025 in Nature Communications — which showed that people with more creative experience had more youthful-looking brains, directly related to their degree of expertise. (尽管这是一项小型非干预性研究,但它表明,达到专业水准的观鸟活动可能会重塑并重构大脑。这是建立在另一项研究——2025年10月发表于《自然·通讯》的《创造性体验与大脑时钟》——的基础之上,该研究表明,拥有更多创造性体验的人,大脑看起来更年轻, 这与他们的专业水平直接相关。)”可知,作者引用这项研究是为佐证前文观鸟可重塑大脑的观点。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Social connections top the list of brain-healthy factors, so joining a birdwatching group directly helps. (社会交往位列有益于大脑健康因素的首位,因此加入观鸟团体能直接带来帮助。)”可知,观鸟的社交功能对促进大脑健康的作用最为突出。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是第一段中的“Beyond the obvious skills of identifying birds, is it possible that birdwatching is beneficially rewiring our brains? A just-published study in the Journal of Neuroscience provides some of the best evidence to date that this popular hobby can do just that. (除了识别鸟类这项显而易见的技能之外,观鸟是否有可能正向重塑我们的大脑?《神经科学期刊》一项刚发表的研究,提供了迄今为止部分最有力的证据,证明这项流行的爱好确实可以做到这一点。)”可知,文章围绕观鸟这一爱好对大脑产生的各类积极影响展开,介绍相关科学研究以及多重益处,所以“What Birdwatching Can Do for Your Brain?(观鸟能为你的大脑带来什么?)”最能概括全文核心,适合作为最佳标题。

Doctors often recommend about 150 minutes of exercise each week to maintain good health. This may sound like a lot, but it can be broken down into about 30 minutes a day, 5 days a week. For people with busy schedules, even this can seem difficult. However, experts say that exercise does not need to be done all at once. ____16____
This idea is known as “exercise snacking”. It means doing small amounts of physical activity at different times instead of one long workout. Simple actions like taking the stairs can contribute to your total exercise time. ____17____ These small efforts can add up and help improve overall health.
When exercise time is short, high-intensity interval training (HIIT) can be especially useful. ____18____ These are followed by periods of rest or lighter activity. HIIT can burn calories quickly and help build strength. Meanwhile, regular aerobic (有氧的) exercise is beneficial to heart health, especially when it lasts at least 10 minutes.
____19____ Combining different types of activities, like strength training and aerobic exercise, can bring greater benefits than focusing on only one type. Together, they help improve fitness, increase energy, and support long-term health. For people who spend long hours sitting, it is important to stay active during the day.
Other changes, such as using a standing desk or sitting on an exercise ball, can also improve posture and encourage movement. ____20____ In general, regular physical activity helps improve heart health, strengthen the body, and reduce the risk of diseases.
A. A balanced approach to exercise is also essential.
B. Try one type of exercise and stick to it for a long time.
C. It can be divided into shorter periods throughout the day.
D. These small adjustments can make a difference over time.
E. This type of exercise includes short bursts of strong effort.
F. Walking during breaks or standing up more often also helps.

【导语】文章主要介绍电影《欢迎来龙餐馆》,讲述影片内容、创作视角以及国内外各界对这部国产反战影片的评价。
【36题详解】
考查冠词。句意:作为今夏最受热议的上映影片之一,《欢迎来龙餐馆》,一部中国反战影片,已经在国内外引发广泛的公众讨论。title为可数名词单数,空前无限定词,所以此处使用冠词,结合句意,此处表示“一部中国反战影片”为泛指,且Chinese是以辅音音素开头的单词,所以用不定冠词a。
【37题详解】
考查动词时态。句意:这部由文牧野执导的电影,由沈腾饰演徐福,一名来自中国东北的厨师,这名厨师前往饱受战乱的地区来偿还沉重的个人债务。此处为谓语动词,句子描述影片基本信息,使用一般现在时,主语The movie是第三人称单数,所以谓语动词为features。
【38题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意同上。此处为非谓语动词作目的状语,前往战乱地区的目的是还债,所以用动词不定式形式to pay。
【39题详解】
考查介词。句意:在故事里,龙餐馆充当流离失所平民的安全避难所,为他们提供食物和基本尊严。此处为固定搭配serve as,意为“充当;担任”,所以此处为介词as。
【40题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意同上。此处为非谓语动词作状语,provide与逻辑主语Dragon Restaurant之间是主动关系,所以用现在分词providing作状语。
【41题详解】
考查副词。句意:食物成为这部电影的情感核心,影片着重凸显普通人,而非好莱坞战争作品中那种传奇式英雄。此处修饰动词highlights,要用副词,strong的副词形式是strongly。
【42题详解】
考查名词。句意:食物成为这部电影的情感核心,影片着重凸显普通人,而非好莱坞战争作品中那种传奇式英雄。hero为可数名词,此处表泛指一类英雄,需要使用复数形式heroes。
【43题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:许多评论家指出这部作品带来了看待战争的全新视角,揭露武装冲突所带来的深重苦难。此处为非谓语动词作后置定语,bring与被修饰词sufferings之间是被动关系,所以用过去分词brought。
【44题详解】
考查形容词。句意:这部电影拥有超越单纯娱乐的更为丰富的人文价值,它鼓励观众思考如何从平民视角讲述全球故事。此处修饰名词value,需要形容词,humanistic意为“人文的”,符合题意。
【45题详解】
考查“疑问词+不定式”结构。句意同上。此处为“疑问词+不定式”作介词upon的宾语,结合句意,此处表示“如何”,所以用疑问副词how。

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
The summer heat hung heavy in the air as Lily moved into her new apartment with her 8-year-old daughter, Mia. Exhausted from packing and moving, they were eager to settle down and enjoy a quiet life.
However, their peace was short-lived. Their next-door neighbor, Mr Whitmore, was an elderly man who lived alone. Every evening, he would play the piano loudly, filling the entire building with music that lasted until midnight. Mia, who needed to go to bed early for school, often tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. Lily tried to ignore it at first, but after a week of sleepless nights, she decided to talk to Mr Whitmore.
One afternoon, Lily knocked on Mr Whitmore’s door. When he opened it, his face was cold and uninviting. “Excuse me, sir,” Lily said politely, “I’m your new neighbor, Lily, and my daughter, Mia, lives with me. We’ve been having trouble sleeping because of the piano music in the evenings. Could you possibly play a little softer or stop earlier?”
On hearing Lily’s request, Mr Whitmore’s expression darkened. “This is my house, and I’ll play my piano whenever I want,” he shouted. “I’ve lived here for 20 years, and no one has ever complained before. You should learn to adapt.” With that, he shut the door loudly in her face. Lily felt angry and helpless. She went back to her apartment, where Mia was sitting on the sofa, rubbing her eyes. “Mommy, I’m so tired,” Mia said quietly. Lily hugged her tightly, determined to find a way to solve the problem.
The next morning, as Lily was taking out the trash, she saw Mr Whitmore struggling to carry a heavy box of books. He moved unsteadily, and the box slipped from his hands, scattering (散开) books all over the floor. Lily hesitated for a moment — part of her wanted to walk away, but her heart told her to help.
注意:
(1)续写词数应为150个左右;

Therefore, Lily hurried over to lend Mr Whitmore a helping hand.

【答案】参考范文
Therefore, Lily hurried over to lend Mr Whitmore a helping hand. She knelt down and began gathering the scattered books. Mr Whitmore stood awkwardly, clearly embarrassed by her kindness after yesterday’s rude behavior. “Thank you,” he muttered, avoiding her eyes. As they carried the box inside his apartment, Lily noticed walls lined with old family photos and a framed picture of a young woman at a grand piano. “My daughter,” he said quietly, noticing her gaze. “She used to play with me. She passed away years ago.” Lily understood then — the music was his way of holding onto precious memories.
The next day, Lily was surprised when she heard a soft knock on her door. It was Mr Whitmore, holding a plate of homemade cookies. “I’m sorry about the other night,” he said. “I didn’t realize the music disturbed your little girl. From now on, I’ll stop playing by nine.” Lily smiled warmly and invited him in. That evening, the piano still played, but softly and ended early. Mia fell asleep peacefully for the first time in weeks. Over the following months, the three became close friends — Lily sometimes joined him at the piano, and Mia brought him drawings. What began as conflict blossomed into unexpected friendship and mutual care.
