We always stayed in Grandma’s house there with her, Uncle Rich and Aunt Charlotte. It was a fun time with days full of excitement and joy. Often Aunt Charlotte would even make us a Thanksgiving dinner in the summertime. Some of my happiest childhood memories came from those visits. One especially holds a special place in my heart. During that visit, I had great fun every day. One evening, I climbed into bed in the guest bedroom on the second floor of the house. Although I had played and explored the whole day and was really tired, I was still wide awake, my mind racing with the day’s sweet events. As I lay there, I heard the most pleasant sound coming from the front window below me. It was laughter. Mom, Dad, Uncle Rich, and Aunt Charlotte were down there sharing stories and telling jokes. The laughter was so happy, so joyous, that I found myself smiling. And even then in my young mind and childish heart, I realized that this is how life should be. The laughter became a sweet song to me and I fell asleep feeling all was right with the world. Whenever my life seems too hard or crazy, I look back on that memory. And I took the lessons that Uncle Rich and Aunt Charlotte taught me. They always lived their lives with love and joy and laughter and smiles. Uncle Rich passed away many years ago but Aunt Charlotte is still alive. I write to her each week and I am so thankful to still have her in my life. We fill lives with laughter, smiles, love and joy. We not only give ourselves happiness but also make this world a better and more beautiful place. 4. Why did the author and his family drive a long way every summer? A. To go on a mountain trip. B.

C 【解析】 【导语】文章主要回忆作者儿时每年夏天去田纳西州拜访亲戚的温馨往事，一段楼下亲友欢笑的记忆始终治愈着他。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“When I was a young boy, every summer, Mom, Dad, my brothers and I would climb into our old car and drive for 7 hours over long mountain roads to visit Mom’s relatives in Tennessee.(小时候，每年夏天我和父母、兄弟们都会坐上旧车，沿漫长山路开7个小时去田纳西看望母亲的亲戚。)”可知，长途驱车是为了和亲戚相聚。 【5题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第一段 “Some of my happiest childhood memories came from those visits.(我童年最快乐的一些回忆来自那些拜访)”以及第二段 “One especially holds a special place in my heart. (其中一次尤其在我心中占有特殊的位置)”可知，“One” 指代的是一次拜访。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Although I had played and explored the whole day and was really tired, I was still wide awake, my mind racing with the day’s sweet events.(尽管玩了一整天十分疲惫，我却毫无睡意，脑海里不断回放白天美好的点点滴滴。)”可知，作者内心太过兴奋所以睡不着。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“And I took the lessons that Uncle Rich and Aunt Charlotte taught me. They always lived their lives with love and joy and laughter and smiles.(我从里奇舅舅和夏洛特舅妈身上学到了道理，他们永远满怀爱意、快乐、欢笑与笑容地生活。)”可知，作者学到的是他们乐观、充满爱意的生活心态。 C Imagine waking up one morning to find your smartphone missing. You can no longer get guided to work, order your coffee, or connect with friends. For most of us, it is a nightmare (噩梦). But it should not be exactly unable to be accepted. Despite being more digitally connected than ever, we are lonelier and more anxious. Anxiety rates increased by 25% globally. Depression now affects over 280 million people worldwide. All of this is due to our growing dependence on social media and smart technologies designed to offer quick relief but often at the expense of deep, meaningful engagement, which may further cause our loss of something easy to be ignored. Though these conveniences offer short-term relief, they may weaken our thinking skills. For example, GPS has undoubtedly changed how we travel. But a 2020 study found that frequent GPS users struggle more with self-guided navigation (航行). Over time, those who depended more on GPS showed a sharp loss in special memory and problem-solving skills. However, reducing dependence on these conveniences can lead to discomfort. In seeking comfort today, we might be trading away some discomfort. That is the problem: the very discomfort we avoid is often what strengthens us. Viewing stress, a kind of discomfort, as a challenge rather than a threat leads to better results. Research shows that mild stress can improve adaptability. Neuroscience (神经科学) shows that neuroplasticity — the brain’s ability to form new connections — is improved through challenging experiences. This adaptability is important for developing resilience (抗逆力), a process fueled by both mental challenges and active effort. But this doesn’t mean we should reject comfort entirely; it’s to balance it with intentional discomfort. Think of it as “micro-dosing hardship”—a series of small, manageable difficulties that keep our mental and emotional muscles strong, such as writing with a pen, or washing dishes by hand. These small acts are enough to reawaken the resilience we’ve buried under layers of ease. So, the next time you feel the pull of ease, pause. Ask yourself: Is this momentary comfort helping me grow or is it keeping me stuck? Choosing discomfort isn’t easy, but sometimes, it’s worth it. 8. What is the main concern raised by the author in the first two paragraphs? A. The high cost of replacing lost smartphones. B. The growing popularity of social media worldwide. C. The failure of technology to provide efficient services. D. The rise in mental problems linked to digital dependency. 9. What may digital conveniences cause according to the text? A. The meaningful engagement. B. The fast but worthless relief. C. The lack of necessary comfort. D. The decrease of thinking ability. 10. Which is a real-life application of “micro-dosing hardship”? A. Ordering take- out food after work. B. Taking the stairs instead of the lift. C. Writing an email using voice- to- text. D. Exploring a new city by using GPS. 11. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. GPS: the unseen cost of convenience. B. Stress: the main cause of brain damage. C. Smartphones: blocks to human progress. D. Discomfort: a hidden source of resilience. 【答案】8. D 9. D 10. B 11. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讨论了数字依赖导致的心理问题，并强调适度体验不适感对增强抗逆力的重要性。 【8题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“Despite being more digitally connected than ever, we are lonelier and more anxious. Anxiety rates increased by 25% globally. Depression now affects over 280 million people worldwide. All of this is due to our growing dependence on social media and smart technologies designed to offer quick relief but often at the expense of deep, meaningful engagement, which may further cause our loss of something easy to be ignored.(尽管我们比以往任何时候都更加数字化连接，但我们更加孤独和焦虑。全球焦虑率上升了25%。抑郁症现在影响着全球超过2.8亿人。所有这些都是由于我们越来越依赖社交媒体和智能技术，这些技术旨在提供快速缓解，但往往以牺牲深入、有意义的参与为代价，这可能会进一步导致我们失去一些容易被忽视的东西。)”可知，作者在前两段中提出的主要担忧是与数字依赖相关的心理问题上升。故选D。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Though these conveniences offer short-term relief, they may weaken our thinking skills.(虽然这些便利提供了短期的缓解，但它们可能会削弱我们的思维能力。)”可知，数字便利可能会导致思维能力的下降。故选D。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Think of it as “micro-dosing hardship”—a series of small, manageable difficulties that keep our mental and emotional muscles strong, such as writing with a pen, or washing dishes by hand.(把它看作是“微剂量的困难”——一系列小的、可管理的困难，可以保持我们的精神和情感肌肉强壮，比如用钢笔写字，或者用手洗碗。)”可知，“微剂量的困难”指的是一系列小的、可管理的困难，这些困难可以保持我们的精神和情感肌肉强壮，如用钢笔写字或手洗碗。“走楼梯而不是乘电梯。”符合这一描述，因为它是一个小的、可管理的困难，可以锻炼我们的身体。故选B。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是根据第四段“That is the problem: the very discomfort we avoid is often what strengthens us. Viewing stress, a kind of discomfort, as a challenge rather than a threat leads to better results. Research shows that mild stress can improve adaptability. Neuroscience (神经科学) shows that neuroplasticity — the brain’s ability to form new connections — is improved through challenging experiences. This adaptability is important for developing resilience (抗逆力), a process fueled by both mental challenges and active effort.(这就是问题所在：我们避免的不适感往往正是让我们变得更强大的东西。将压力这种不适感视为挑战而非威胁会带来更好的结果。研究表明，适度的压力可以提高适应能力。神经科学表明，神经可塑性——大脑形成新连接的能力——通过挑战性的经历得到改善。这种适应能力对于培养抗逆力很重要，抗逆力是一个由心理挑战和积极努力共同推动的过程。)”可知，文章主要讨论了数字依赖导致的心理问题，并强调了适度体验不适感对于增强抗逆力的重要性。因此，一个合适的标题是“Discomfort: a hidden source of resilience.(不适感：抗逆力的隐藏来源。)”。故选D。 D The high intelligence levels of orangutans (红毛猩猩) have long been recognised, partly due to their practical skills such as using tools to crack nuts and search for insects. But new research suggests the primate (灵长动物) has another handy skill: applying medicinal herbs intentionally to an open wound. A male Sumatran orangutan known as Rakus was observed by the research team with a fresh facial wound in June 2022. Three days later, Rakus was witnessed feeding on the stem and leaves of a plant. Thirteen minutes after Rakus had started feeding on it, he began chewing the leaves without swallowing them, then used his fingers to apply the resulting juice directly on to his facial wound. He repeated this behavior for seven minutes and at last fully covered the wound with the chewed leaves. He then continued feeding on the plant for 30 minutes. Over the following days, there were no signs of infection. The wound closed within five days and was healed, with only a faint scar remaining after one month. It is not the first time wild primate species have been spotted self-medicating: among other examples, Bornean orangutans have been seen rubbing their arms and legs with chewed leaves from a plant used by humans to treat sore muscles, while chimpanzees have been recorded chewing plants known to treat worm infections and applying insects to wounds. However, the new discovery is the first time a wild animal has been observed treating open wounds with a substance known to have medicinal properties. “In the chimpanzee case they used insects and unfortunately it was never found out whether these insects really promote wound healing. Whereas in our case, the orangutan used the plant, and this plant has known medical properties,” said Dr Caroline Schuppli, senior author of the research. Rakus’s goal-oriented behavior and the medicinal properties of his chosen treatment offer insight into the origins of human wound care-the treatment of which was first mentioned in a medical manuscript dating to 2200BC. “It definitely shows that these basic cognitive capacities that you need to come up with a behaviour like this were present at the time of our last common ancestor most likely,” said Schuppli. It remains unclear whether Rakus figured the process out for himself or learned it from another orangutan, although it has not been seen in any other individual. 12. How did the team conduct their research? A. By analyzing previous records. B. By tracking the research object. C. By quoting others’ findings. D. By categorizing qualities of primates. 13. What sets this new case apart from the previous ones? A. The primate’s awareness of herb selection. B. The locations of the wild primates. C. The sizes of the application range. D. The outcome of the treatment. 14. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about? A. Supporting evidence for the research results. B. Potential significance of the research findings. C. A further explanation of the research summary. D. A reasonable doubt about the research process. 15. What will the follow-up study focus on? A. The origin of Rakus’ intentional self-medication. B. Different medicinal plants used by wild primates. C. Active wound treatment s shared by humans and primates D. The possible influence from Rakus’ family. 【答案】12. B 13. A 14. B 15. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了人们早就认识到猩猩的高智商，部分原因在于它们的实用技能，比如用工具敲开坚果和寻找昆虫。但新的研究表明，灵长类动物还有另一项方便的技能:故意将草药涂抹在开放的伤口上。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“A male Sumatran orangutan known as Rakus was observed by the research team with a fresh facial wound in June 2022. Three days later, Rakus was witnessed feeding on the stem and leaves of a plant. Thirteen minutes after Rakus had started feeding on it, he began chewing the leaves without swallowing them, then used his fingers to apply the resulting juice directly on to his facial wound. He repeated this behavior for seven minutes and at last fully covered the wound with the chewed leaves. He then continued feeding on the plant for 30 minutes. Over the following days, there were no signs of infection. The wound closed within five days and was healed, with only a faint scar remaining after one month.(2022年6月，研究团队观察到一只名为Rakus的雄性红毛猩猩脸上有一个新的伤口。三天后，人们发现Rakus正在吃一种植物的茎和叶。Rakus开始吃这种植物13分钟后，他开始咀嚼叶子但不咽下，然后用手指将产生的汁液直接涂在脸上的伤口上。他重复这种行为达七分钟，最后用嚼碎的叶子完全覆盖了伤口。随后，他继续吃了这种植物30分钟。在接下来的几天里，没有出现感染的迹象，伤口在五天内闭合并愈合，一个月后仅留下一个淡淡的疤痕。)”可推知，这个团队是通过跟踪研究对象的方式进行研究的。故选B。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“However, the new discovery is the first time a wild animal has been observed treating open wounds with a substance known to have medicinal properties. “In the chimpanzee case they used insects and unfortunately it was never found out whether these insects really promote wound healing. Whereas in our case, the orangutan used the plant, and this plant has known medical properties,” said Dr Caroline Schuppli, senior author of the research.(然而，这一新发现是首次观察到野生动物使用已知具有药用性质的物质来治疗开放伤口。“在黑猩猩的例子中，它们使用了昆虫，但不幸的是，从未发现这些昆虫是否真的促进伤口愈合。而在我们的例子中，红毛猩猩使用了这种植物，而这种植物具有已知的医疗属性，”这项研究的主要作者Caroline Schuppli博士说道。)”可知，灵长类动物对草药选择的意识使这次的例子与以往有所不同。故选A。 【14题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第四段“Rakus’s goal-oriented behavior and the medicinal properties of his chosen treatment offer insight into the origins of human wound care-the treatment of which was first mentioned in a medical manuscript dating to 2200BC. “It definitely shows that these basic cognitive capacities that you need to come up with a behaviour like this were present at the time of our last common ancestor most likely,” said Schuppli.(Rakus这种目标导向的行为以及他所选疗法的药用属性，为人类伤口护理的起源提供了见解——这种治疗方法最早在公元前2200年的一部医学手稿中被提及。“这确实表明，这些基本认知能力——即你需要具备这种行为的认知能力——很可能在我们最近的共同祖先的时代就已经存在了，”Schuppli说道。)”可知，第四段主要讲述了研究结果的潜在意义。故选B。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“It remains unclear whether Rakus figured the process out for himself or learned it from another orangutan, although it has not been seen in any other individual.(虽然Rakus的行为尚未在其他个体中被观察到，但尚不清楚Rakus是自己想出这个过程的，还是从另一只红毛猩猩那里学到的。)”可推知，后续研究的重点是Rakus有意自我治疗的起源。故选A。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Practice Good Study Habits Test yourself. A vital part of studying is repetition. Test yourself on difficult materials during each study session.____16____Use these to test your knowledge.

However, keep in mind that you need to use study groups effectively in order to have the best effect. Seek out help bravely.____19____If you are continually struggling with a particular subject despite studying hard, seek out help from another student, a tutor, a teacher, or a parent. If you’re a college student, there might be free tutoring centers on campus with a particular subject like writing, language, or math. Take breaks and give yourself rewards. As study is seen as a long process, allowing yourself breaks and rewards can motivate you to study harder. Take breaks every hour to stretch your legs, watch television or do some light reading. Provide rewards at the end of study to motivate you.____20____ A. Create a good study space. B. Make good use of study groups. C. Turn to study groups whenever you need help. D. There is no shame in asking for help if you need it. E. The most difficult subjects require the most mental energy. F. Make flashcards with vocabulary words, dates and other facts. G. For example, treat yourself by ordering takeout after studying three days. 【答案】16. F 17. E 18. B 19. D 20. G 【解析】 【导语】这篇文章主要介绍了几种良好学习习惯：自测、先攻克难点、善用学习小组、勇于求助、劳逸结合并适当奖励自己，以此提升学习效果。 【16题详解】 前文“Test yourself on difficult materials during each study session.(在每次学习时，针对难懂的内容进行自我测试。)”提到“每次学习时都针对难点内容进行自我检测”，后文出现指代性表达Use these to test your knowledge.(用这些来检测你的知识储备。)说明空格处需要填入一种可用于自测的具体工具/形式。F选项“Make flashcards with vocabulary words, dates and other facts.(制作写有词汇、日期和其他知识点的抽认卡。)”中，flashcards正好对应后文的these，逻辑衔接紧密，符合语境。 【17题详解】 本段主旨是“Start with the hardest subjects.(从最难的科目开始学。)”，后文“Start with this work first.(先从这项工作开始。)”中的this work指代“难的学习任务”。E选项“The most difficult subjects require the most mental energy.(最难的科目需要消耗最多的脑力。)”解释了“为什么要先学难的科目”，既承接了主旨句，又为后文的建议提供了理由，逻辑通顺。 【18题详解】 空格是本段的主旨小标题，后文“Study groups can be a great way to take advantage of your studying experience. However, keep in mind that you need to use study groups effectively in order to have the best effect.(学习小组可以是充分利用学习体验的好方法。但请记住，要想发挥最佳效果，必须有效地利用学习小组。)”整段都围绕学习小组展开，强调要有效利用学习小组才能达到最好效果。B选项“Make good use of study groups.(好好利用学习小组。)”准确概括了段落核心，适合作为本段的小标题。 【19题详解】 本段主旨是“Seek out help bravely.(勇敢寻求帮助。)”，后文“If you are continually struggling with a particular subject despite studying hard, seek out help from another student, a tutor, a teacher, or a parent.( 如果你尽管努力学习，仍对某个科目感到困难，就要主动向其他同学、辅导老师、教师或家长求助。)”具体说明遇到困难可以向同学、老师、家教等求助。D选项“There is no shame in asking for help if you need it.(如果需要帮助，开口求助并不是丢脸的事。)”呼应了主旨句中的bravely，从心理层面鼓励读者放下顾虑，自然引出后文的具体求助渠道。 【20题详解】 前文“Provide rewards at the end of study to motivate you.(在学习结束时给予奖励，以激励自己。)”提到“学习结束后给自己设置奖励来保持动力”，空格处是对“奖励”的进一步补充。G选项“For example, treat yourself by ordering takeout after studying three days.(比如，坚持学习三天后点份外卖犒劳自己。)”是对“奖励”的具体举例，对应前文的 rewards，符合段落逻辑。 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节 （共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Alice was a shy girl who found it difficult to make friends.

D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了害羞内向、难以交友的女孩Alice，在一次班级组织的国家公园旅行中，通过小组活动与友善的Jessica结对，逐渐打开心扉、建立友谊的故事。 【21题详解】 考查名词词义辨析。句意：一天，她的老师宣布班级要去国家公园旅行。A. mother 妈妈；B. father 爸爸；C. teacher 老师；D. cousin 堂兄/妹。根据后文“the class would be going on a trip”（班级要去旅行）和“The teacher asked the students to team up”（老师让学生分组）可知，组织班级旅行的是老师，故选C项。 【22题详解】 考查形容词词义辨析。句意：每个人都很兴奋，但Alice感到紧张。A. nervous 紧张的；B. puzzled 困惑的；C. frightened 害怕的；D. awkward 尴尬的。根据前文“Alice was a shy girl who found it difficult to make friends”（Alice 是个害羞的女孩，很难交到朋友）和后文“She worried that she would be left out”（她担心自己会被冷落）可知，Alice 因担心被孤立而感到紧张，故选A项。 【23题详解】 考查动词短语辨析。句意：她担心自己会被冷落，无法融入同学之中。A. get in 进入；B. move in 搬进；C. fit in 融入；D. come along 出现，进展。根据前文“found it difficult to make friends”（很难交到朋友）和“be left out”（被冷落）可知，Alice 的核心困扰是无法融入集体，“fit in with sb.”为固定搭配，意为“与某人相处融洽、融入某人之中”，符合题意，故选C项。 【24题详解】 考查副词词义辨析。句意：旅行那天，Alice起初有些犹豫，但最终还是决定去。A. gradually 逐渐地；B. finally 最终；C. suddenly 突然；D. slowly 慢慢地。根据前文“held back at first”（起初退缩）和后文“decided to go”（决定去）可知，前后是转折关系，强调“经过犹豫后最终做出决定”，“finally”符合逻辑，故选B项。 【25题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：他们到达公园时，每个人都很兴奋，Alice努力隐藏自己的恐惧。A. show 展示；B. hide 隐藏；C. express 表达；D. discuss 讨论。根据前文“Alice felt ____ ”和 “tried to”（努力去做）可知前文说到Alice感到紧张，所以Alice不想让别人看出自己的恐惧，试图隐藏这种情绪，故选B项。 【26题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：Alice被和一个叫Jessica的女孩结对，Jessica友好又乐于助人。A. joined 加入；B. attended 参加；C. paired 结对；D. compared 比较。根据前文“The teacher asked the students to team up”（老师让学生分组）可知，此处指 “两人结对分组”，“be paired with sb.”为固定搭配，意为“与某人结对”，符合语境，故选C项。 【27题详解】 考查名词词义辨析。句意：活动中，Jessica注意到找到正确的植物对Alice来说是个挑战。A. pleasure 乐趣；B. comfort 安慰；C. worry 担忧；D. challenge 挑战。根据后文“She offered to help”（她主动提供帮助）可知，Alice在找植物这件事上遇到了困难，即“挑战”，故选D项。 【28题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：Alice在她们合作时感到很开心，甚至一起笑了起来。A. shared 分享；B. offered 提供；C. drew 吸引；D. took 拿。根据前文“they worked together”（她们一起合作）和“felt happy”（感到开心）可知，两人在合作中分享快乐，“shared a few laughs” 意为“一起笑、分享笑声”，符合语境，故选A项。 【29题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：一天结束时，Alice意识到自己交了一个新朋友。A. thought 认为；B. showed 展示；C. supposed 假设；D. realized 意识到。根据前 “Slowly, she opened up and began to feel comfortable in Jessica’s company.”（慢慢地，她打开了心扉，在Jessica身边开始感到自在。）可知，Alice 从“紧张、隐藏恐惧”到“感到自在、开心”，最终“意识到”自己收获了友谊，“realized”更能体现“从无意识到有意识”的过程，故选D项。 【30题详解】 考查形容词词义辨析。句意：这次经历让她更加自信。A. curious 好奇的；B. confident 自信的；C. fluent 流利的；D. content 满足的。根据后文“Her shy nature was slowly lost, replaced by a growing sense of confidence.”（她害羞的本性慢慢消失了，取而代之的是日益增强的自信心。）可知，此处对应“confidence”，应填“confident”（自信的），故选B项。 【31题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：她明白了做自己就好，别人也会接受她本来的样子。A. accept 接受；B. receive 收到；C. stand 忍受；D. allow 允许。根据前文“she opened up and began to feel comfortable in Jessica’s company.”（她打开了心扉，在Jessica身边开始感到自在。）可知，Jessica的友好让Alice感受到被接纳，所以她意识到“别人会接受真实的她”，“accept”强调 “主观上接纳”，符合语境；“receive”仅表示“客观收到”，不符合题意，故选A项。 【32题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：这次旅行改变了她对友谊的看法，让她明白只要尝试，她就能和别人建立联系。A. succeed 成功；B. fight 打架；C. connect 建立联系；D. hike 徒步旅行。根据前文“found it difficult to make friends”（很难交到朋友）和“made a new friend”（交了一个新朋友）可知，Alice的核心转变是“从无法交友到建立友谊”，即“与他人建立联系”，“connect with sb.”意为“与某人建立联系”，符合题意，故选C项。 【33题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：回到学校后，Alice开始在课堂上更多地发言，甚至计划邀请同学一起学习。A. refused 拒绝；B. planned 计划；C. agreed 同意；D. competed 竞争。根据前文“This experience made her more ____ ”可知旅行的经历让Alice更加自信，再结合“speak up more in class”（在课堂上更多地发言），可知Alice 变得主动，空前的even表示递进关系，“计划邀请同学”是主动社交的体现，“planned to do sth.”意为“计划做某事”，符合语境，故选B项。 【34题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：她和别人交流得越多，就越享受这个过程。A. walked 走路；B. studied 学习；C. communicated 交流；D. played 玩耍。根据前文“speak up more in class”（在课堂上更多地发言）和“invite her classmates to study together”（邀请同学一起学习）可知，这些都是“与他人交流”的行为，且“communicate with sb.”意为“与某人交流”，符合“从害羞到主动社交”的转变逻辑，故选C项。 【35题详解】 考查名词和形容词词义辨析。句意：她很感激这次旅行，把她推出了舒适区。A. difficult 困难的；B. trouble 麻烦；C. typical 典型的；D. comfort 舒适。结合前文可知Alice原本“害羞、宅家、难以交友”的状态，旅行让她变得自信，愿意和别人建立联系，所以是突破了原本的舒适区，“comfort zone”为固定短语，意为 “舒适区”，符合语境，故选D项。 第二节（共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文, 在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 Feeling tired?

B When I was a young boy, every summer, Mom, Dad, my brothers and I would climb into our old car and drive for 7 hours over long mountain roads to visit Mom’s relatives in Tennessee. We always stayed in Grandma’s house there with her, Uncle Rich and Aunt Charlotte. It was a fun time with days full of excitement and joy. Often Aunt Charlotte would even make us a Thanksgiving dinner in the summertime. Some of my happiest childhood memories came from those visits. One especially holds a special place in my heart. During that visit, I had great fun every day. One evening, I climbed into bed in the guest bedroom on the second floor of the house. Although I had played and explored the whole day and was really tired, I was still wide awake, my mind racing with the day’s sweet events. As I lay there, I heard the most pleasant sound coming from the front window below me. It was laughter. Mom, Dad, Uncle Rich, and Aunt Charlotte were down there sharing stories and telling jokes. The laughter was so happy, so joyous, that I found myself smiling. And even then in my young mind and childish heart, I realized that this is how life should be. The laughter became a sweet song to me and I fell asleep feeling all was right with the world. Whenever my life seems too hard or crazy, I look back on that memory. And I took the lessons that Uncle Rich and Aunt Charlotte taught me. They always lived their lives with love and joy and laughter and smiles. Uncle Rich passed away many years ago but Aunt Charlotte is still alive. I write to her each week and I am so thankful to still have her in my life. We fill lives with laughter, smiles, love and joy. We not only give ourselves happiness but also make this world a better and more beautiful place. 4. Why did the author and his family drive a long way every summer? A. To go on a mountain trip. B.

For most of us, it is a nightmare (噩梦). But it should not be exactly unable to be accepted. Despite being more digitally connected than ever, we are lonelier and more anxious. Anxiety rates increased by 25% globally. Depression now affects over 280 million people worldwide. All of this is due to our growing dependence on social media and smart technologies designed to offer quick relief but often at the expense of deep, meaningful engagement, which may further cause our loss of something easy to be ignored. Though these conveniences offer short-term relief, they may weaken our thinking skills. For example, GPS has undoubtedly changed how we travel. But a 2020 study found that frequent GPS users struggle more with self-guided navigation (航行). Over time, those who depended more on GPS showed a sharp loss in special memory and problem-solving skills. However, reducing dependence on these conveniences can lead to discomfort. In seeking comfort today, we might be trading away some discomfort. That is the problem: the very discomfort we avoid is often what strengthens us. Viewing stress, a kind of discomfort, as a challenge rather than a threat leads to better results. Research shows that mild stress can improve adaptability. Neuroscience (神经科学) shows that neuroplasticity — the brain’s ability to form new connections — is improved through challenging experiences. This adaptability is important for developing resilience (抗逆力), a process fueled by both mental challenges and active effort. But this doesn’t mean we should reject comfort entirely; it’s to balance it with intentional discomfort. Think of it as “micro-dosing hardship”—a series of small, manageable difficulties that keep our mental and emotional muscles strong, such as writing with a pen, or washing dishes by hand. These small acts are enough to reawaken the resilience we’ve buried under layers of ease. So, the next time you feel the pull of ease, pause. Ask yourself: Is this momentary comfort helping me grow or is it keeping me stuck? Choosing discomfort isn’t easy, but sometimes, it’s worth it. 8. What is the main concern raised by the author in the first two paragraphs? A. The high cost of replacing lost smartphones. B. The growing popularity of social media worldwide. C. The failure of technology to provide efficient services. D. The rise in mental problems linked to digital dependency. 9. What may digital conveniences cause according to the text? A. The meaningful engagement. B. The fast but worthless relief. C. The lack of necessary comfort. D. The decrease of thinking ability. 10. Which is a real-life application of “micro-dosing hardship”? A. Ordering take- out food after work. B. Taking the stairs instead of the lift. C. Writing an email using voice- to- text. D. Exploring a new city by using GPS. 11. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. GPS: the unseen cost of convenience. B. Stress: the main cause of brain damage. C. Smartphones: blocks to human progress. D. Discomfort: a hidden source of resilience. D The high intelligence levels of orangutans (红毛猩猩) have long been recognised, partly due to their practical skills such as using tools to crack nuts and search for insects. But new research suggests the primate (灵长动物) has another handy skill: applying medicinal herbs intentionally to an open wound. A male Sumatran orangutan known as Rakus was observed by the research team with a fresh facial wound in June 2022. Three days later, Rakus was witnessed feeding on the stem and leaves of a plant. Thirteen minutes after Rakus had started feeding on it, he began chewing the leaves without swallowing them, then used his fingers to apply the resulting juice directly on to his facial wound. He repeated this behavior for seven minutes and at last fully covered the wound with the chewed leaves. He then continued feeding on the plant for 30 minutes. Over the following days, there were no signs of infection. The wound closed within five days and was healed, with only a faint scar remaining after one month. It is not the first time wild primate species have been spotted self-medicating: among other examples, Bornean orangutans have been seen rubbing their arms and legs with chewed leaves from a plant used by humans to treat sore muscles, while chimpanzees have been recorded chewing plants known to treat worm infections and applying insects to wounds. However, the new discovery is the first time a wild animal has been observed treating open wounds with a substance known to have medicinal properties. “In the chimpanzee case they used insects and unfortunately it was never found out whether these insects really promote wound healing. Whereas in our case, the orangutan used the plant, and this plant has known medical properties,” said Dr Caroline Schuppli, senior author of the research. Rakus’s goal-oriented behavior and the medicinal properties of his chosen treatment offer insight into the origins of human wound care-the treatment of which was first mentioned in a medical manuscript dating to 2200BC. “It definitely shows that these basic cognitive capacities that you need to come up with a behaviour like this were present at the time of our last common ancestor most likely,” said Schuppli. It remains unclear whether Rakus figured the process out for himself or learned it from another orangutan, although it has not been seen in any other individual. 12. How did the team conduct their research? A. By analyzing previous records. B. By tracking the research object. C. By quoting others’ findings. D. By categorizing qualities of primates. 13. What sets this new case apart from the previous ones? A. The primate’s awareness of herb selection. B. The locations of the wild primates. C. The sizes of the application range. D. The outcome of the treatment. 14. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about? A. Supporting evidence for the research results. B. Potential significance of the research findings. C.
