B In a crowded gallery in the 1940s, a student of traditional Chinese painting, Duan Wenjie, gazed at the vivid Mogao murals (壁画) and felt an immediate urge to visit Dunhuang. “I was like a hungry ox breaking into a vegetable garden,” he recalled, “and enjoying a spiritual feast.” From that moment on, thoughts of the murals filled Duan's mind. His initial idea of a brief visit had transformed into a lifelong mission. Duan's work began in the caves, where he painted copies of the murals. Due to the severe damage done to some of the murals, this was at times an almost impossible task. Determined, Duan labored through hundreds of reference sources, making numerous notes on how to best reproduce the all-but-invisible images. Sometimes, years of painstaking work yielded only one single copy. Starting in 1946, he copied nearly 400 ancient murals mostly by himself, covering an area of about 150 square metres. Despite such remarkable achievements in restoration work, the situation was far less encouraging when it came to academic research. For a long time, Dunhuang studies were largely carried out in other countries, such as Japan, France and Russia. This was the direct consequence of a tragic history. Starting in the early 1900s, foreign explorers smuggled (走私) thousands of ancient manuscripts and relics (遗物) cut of the Mogao Grottoes. As a result, those irreplaceable materials became scattered across the globe. Renowned Chinese historian Chen Yinque once referred to Dunhuang studies as an example of “our sad academic history”. In 1982, Duan Wenjie became Dunhuang Academy's second director and spared no effort to change this situation. Dunhuang studies quickly expanded in range, and Duan led his colleagues in publishing Dunhuang Research, the first Chinese academic journal of Dunhuang studies. “Dunhuang is the whole of my life,” he once said. Thanks to his decades of sustained efforts, the Mogao Grottoes were added to the UNESCO World Heritage List in 1987. 24. What inspired Duan Wenjie to go to Dunhuang? A. An academic conference on cave art. B. A spiritual feast in a vegetable garden. C. His desire for a lifelong mission in Dunhuang. D. His strong fascination with a mural exhibition. 25. How did Duan address the challenge of copying the murals? A. By restoring the damaged images. B. By working with mural researchers. C. By consulting extensive materials carefully. D. By producing several copies of the same mural. 26. Why did Chen see Dunhuang studies as a case of “our sad academic history”? A. Overseas studies led to the theft of manuscripts. B. The ancient murals were gradually damaged. C. Chinese scholars showed little interest in the research. D. Historical losses gave foreign scholars an advantage. 27. Which of the following best describes Duan Wenjie? A. Thorough and devoted. B. Independent and ambitious. C. Creative and practical. D. Curious and adventurous. C Albert Einstein owed his brilliant mind to having a child-like sense of humour. Indeed, a number of studies have found a relationship between humour and intelligence. Researchers in Austria recently discovered that funny people, particularly those who enjoy dark humour, have higher IQs than their less funny fellows. They think that it takes both cognitive (认知的) and emotional ability to process and produce humour. In psychology we use the term “positive humour style” to refer to people who use humour to enhance relationships. This type of humour is connected with relationship satisfaction, extroversion (外向性) and high self-respect. Having a humorous way of thinking about life is also a good strategy. It helps people better manage stress and challenges. Not only do funny people make other people laugh, they also laugh more themselves. And laughter leads to brain changes, which may explain the link between humour and intelligence. Neuropsychological studies have found that experiencing positive emotional states, such as joy, fun and happiness, increases the production of dopamine (多巴胺) in the brain. Dopamine not only makes us feel great, but also opens up the learning centres of the brain, which enables more neural (神经) connections. As a result, we become more flexible and creative in our thinking. Evidence suggests that humour actually increases feelings of confidence, competence and status, making funny people very influential. Humour gets people to listen, helps communicate messages and benefits learning. It is a powerful tool that many successful leaders use to enhance group work and organizational culture. Research on the use of humour in education also supports the concept that humour is an effective aid to learning. Several studies have showed that lessons that are delivered with humour are more enjoyable for students, and also bolster students’ understanding and recall of the topic. 28. What do researchers in Austria think it takes to process and produce humour? A. Good memory and rich life experience. B. Cognitive and emotional ability. C. High self-respect and outgoing personality. D. Enough knowledge and social skills. 29. What is the author's attitude to having a humorous view on life? A. Indifferent. B. Doubtful. C. Supportive. D. Worried. 30. What can be inferred about dopamine? A. It helps improve people's thinking ability and creativity. B. It helps people be humorous. C. It stops the brain from building neural connections. D. It can't be produced by brains with diseases. 31. What does the underlined word “bolster” in the last paragraph mean? A. Damage. B. Preserve. C. Promote. D. Maintain. D You stayed up too late looking through your phone, answering emails or watching just one more video. The next morning, you feel sleepy and impatient. That dessert or sandwich suddenly looks more appealing than your usual yogurt and berries. This isn't just about willpower. Your brain, short on rest, is pushing you toward quick, high-calorie foods. Research shows that lack of sleep disturbs hunger signals, weakens self-control and increases your risk of weight gain. Sleep loss affects millions. More than one-third of U. S. adults regularly get less than seven hours of sleep per night. Nearly three-quarters of teenagers fall short of the recommended 8—10 hours’ sleep during the school week. First respondents, including nurses, firefighters and emergency workers, are especially affected due to night shifts and uncontrollable schedules. These patterns disturb the body's internal clock and are linked to increased appetite (胃口), poor eating habits and higher risks for obesity and metabolic (代谢性的) disease. Studies show that after just one night of sleep loss, reward-related areas such as the amygdala (杏仁核),a part of the brain that drives motivation and reward-seeking, become more reactive to inviting food. Your brain becomes more excited by junk food and less capable of resisting it. Participants in sleep loss studies not only rated high-calorie foods as more desirable but were also more likely to choose them, regardless of how hungry they actually felt. Sleep is as important as diet and exercise in maintaining a healthy weight. Fortunately, even a few nights of consistent, high-quality sleep can help rebalance key systems and start to improve some of these effects. So the next time you find yourself reaching for junk food after a short night, recognize that your body is reacting to stress. Sleep is your most powerful tool for appetite control, energy control and long-term health. 32. What problem does the author point out in paragraph 1? A. Sleep loss stimulates the brain for appetite. B. Staying up late can make people dizzy. C. High-calorie foods are more attractive. D. People are addicted to using mobile phones. 33. Why are first respondents more likely to suffer from sleep loss? A. They bear expectation of the society. B. They have unhealthy lifestyles. C. They have uncontrollable and shifting schedules. D. They have much pressure from the workload. 34. Why is the brain more likely to change into the reward mode after a lack of sleep? A. The brain reacts more quickly to the environment. B. Sleep loss changes how the brain rates food. C. The brain becomes more active and unrealistic. D. Sleep loss changes how the body absorbs nutrients. 35. Which would be the best title for the text? A. How Sleep Loss Disturbs Body's Internal Clock B. Why Quality Sleep Matters for Weight Management C. Sleep, Diet and Exercise: Keys to Healthy Living D. Sleep Shortage: The Hidden Driver of Junk Food Desires 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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 When something goes wrong, do you tend to bounce back or fall apart? When you have resilience (恢复力),you have the inner strength that helps you rebound from a setback or challenge. 36 Here are some skills to help you develop resilience. Realize it's normal. Less than 20 percent of people successfully achieve their goal the first time around. It's normal and expected for setbacks to occur. 37 Knowing this, it's important to anticipate that the main task will be how to effectively manage the setback when it arises. Learn from the past. 38 Think about what has helped you through tough times. You can even write about past events in a journal to help you see the patterns of how you behave and to help guide you in the future. 39 Tend to your own needs and feelings. Do activities and hobbies you enjoy. Include physical activity in your daily routine. Get plenty of sleep and make bedtime rituals. Eat a healthy diet. Practice how to manage stress. Try ways to relax, such as yoga, meditation, guided imagery, deep breathing or prayer. Take action. Don't ignore your problems. 40 It can take time to recover from a major setback, trauma or loss. But know that your life can improve if you work at it. A. Take care of yourself. B. Make every day count. C· Think of how you've coped with troubles in the past. D. Connect with others by joining a faith or spiritual group. E. Instead, figure out what you need to do, make a plan and take action. F. In other words, it's not about whether a challenge will happen, but when. G. If you lack resilience, you might get stuck on problems or feel like a victim. 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，共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。 Megs Yunn, the founder of Beverly's Birthdays in Pennsylvania, was 41 for what she did with a$10,000 donation from a local university.

Not because she couldn't speak’ but because she chose not to. Since childhood, Meher had a terrible stutter (口吃). Whenever she tried to speak in class, her words always got stuck. Only in art class did Meher feel happy and relaxed, because she loved sketching (速写). For her, drawing was safer than speaking. Thus, her pencil became her voice, filling sketchbooks with worlds where no one made fun of her stutter. Unluckily, no one noticed her drawings. Then came the school's talent show. Posters everywhere read: “Find Your Voice”. Funny but sad, Meher thought. Her art teacher, Miss Sofia, walked to her. “These are beautiful. Why don't you show your works at the talent show?” Miss Sofia suggested. Meher shook her head nervously. “Me? On stage?” Meher thought. “With my stutter? Impossible.” But Miss Sofia smiled. “What if you didn't have to speak... just show your story?” Miss Sofia's words kept Meher thinking long after class. That night, an idea flashed through Meher's mind. What if she told her story through animation (动画片)? Using her computer and a borrowed projector from Miss Sofia, Meher turned her sketches into a short animation—“The Girl Behind the Curtain.” As the images came to life, Meher felt something she hadn't felt in years—hope. The girl in the film stuttered, too. When people laughed, a shadowy curtain grew around her like walls. But whenever someone was kind or when she felt brave, she made openings in the curtain. Little by little, light broke through. The day of the show arrived before Meher knew it. On the night of the show, Meher stood behind the curtain. She didn't go on stage. But her animation played on the big screen. At first, there was silence. Then quiet voices. Then tears. 注意： 1.续写词数应为150个左右； 2.请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 When the animation ended and Meher's name appeared on the screen, a great cheer went up from the crowd.___________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ From that day on, “Mute Meher” disappeared.___________________________

B In a crowded gallery in the 1940s,a student of traditional Chinese painting,Duan Wenjie,gazed at the vivid Mogao murals (and felt an immediate urge to visit Dunhuang."I was like a hungry ox breaking into a vegetable garden,"he recalled,and enjoying a spiritual feast."From that moment on,thoughts of the murals filled Duan's mind.His initial idea of a brief visit had transformed into a lifelong mission. Duan's work began in the caves,where he painted copies of the murals.Due to the severe damage done to some of the murals,this was at times an almost impossible task Determined,Duan labored through hundreds of reference sources,making numerous notes on how to best reproduce the all-but-invisible images.Sometimes,years of painstaking work yielded only one single copy.Starting in 1946,he copied nearly 400 ancient murals mostly by himself,covering an area of about 150 square metres. Despite such remarkable achievements in restoration work,the situation was far less encouraging when it came to academic research.For along time,Dunhuang studies were largely carried out in other countries,such as Japan,France and Russia.This was the direct consequence of a tragic history.Starting in the early 1900s,foreign explorers smuggled(走私)thousands of ancient manuscripts and relics(遗物)cut of the Mogao Grottoes.As a result,those irreplaceable materials became scattered across the globe. Renowned Chinese historian Chen Yinque once referred to Dunhuang studies as an example of"our sad academic history". In 1982,Duan Wenjie became Dunhuang Academy's second director and spared no effort to change this situation.Dunhuang studies quickly expanded in range,and Duan led his colleagues in publishing Dunlang Research,the first Chinese academic journal of Dunhuang studies."Dunhuang is the whole ofmy life,"he once said.Thanks to his decades of sustained efforts,the Mogao Grottoes were added to the UNESCO World Heritage List in 1987. 24.What inspired Duan Wenjie to go to Dunhuang? A.An academic conference on cave art. B.A spiritual feast in a vegetable garden. C.His desire for a lifelong mission in Dunhuang. D.His strong fascination with a mural exhibition. 25.How did Duan address the challenge of copying the murals? A.By restoring the damaged images B.By working with mural researchers C.By consulting extensive materials carefully D.By producing several copies of the same mural 26.Why did Chen see Dunhuang studies as a case of our sad academic history'? A.Overseas studies led to the theft of manuscripts. B.The ancient murals were gradually damaged. C.Chinese scholars showed little interest in the research D.Historical losses gave foreign scholars an advantage 27.Which of the following best describes Duan Wenjie? A.Thorough and devoted. B.Independent and ambitious C.Creative and practical. D.Curious and adventurous. C Albert Einstein owed his brilliant mind to having a child-like sense of humour. Indeed,a number of studies have found a relationship between humour and intelligence. Researchers in Austria recently discovered that funny people,particularly those who enjoy dark humour,have higher IQs than their less funny fellows.They think that it takes both cognitive (and emotional ability to process and produce humour. In psychology we use the term positive humour style"to refer to people who use humour to enhance relationships.This type of humour is connected with relationship satisfaction,extroversion (and high self-respect.Having a humorous way of thinking about life is also a good strategy.It helps people better manage stress and challenges. Not only do funny people make other people laugh,they also laugh more themselves.And laughter leads to brain changes,which may explain the link between humour and intelligence.Neuropsychological studies have found that experiencing positive emotional states,such as joy,fun and happiness,increases the production of dopamine (in the brain.Dopamine not only makes us feel great,but also opens up the learning centres of the brain,which enables more neural (connections.As a result,we become more flexible and creative in our thinking. Evidence suggests that humour actually increases feelings of confidence, competence and status,making funny people very influential.Humour gets people to listen,helps communicate messages and benefits learning.It is a powerful tool that many successful leaders use to enhance group work and organizational culture. Research on the use ofhumour in education also supports the concept that humour is an effective aid to learning.Several studies have showed that lessons that are delivered with humour are more enjoyable for students,and also bolster students' understanding and recall of the topic. 28.What do researchers in Austria think it takes to process and produce humour? A.Good memory and rich life experience B.Cognitive and emotional ability. C.High self-respect and outgoing personality D.Enough knowledge and social skills 29.What is the author's attitude to having a humorous view on life? A.Indifferent.B.Doubtful. C.Supportive. D.Worried. 30.What can be inferred about dopamine? A.It helps improve people's thinking ability and creativity B.It helps people be humorous. C.It stops the brain from building neural connections. D.It can't be produced by brains with diseases. 31.What does the underlined word "bolster"in the last paragraph mean? A.Damage. B.Preserve. C.Promote. D.Maintain. D You stayed up too late looking through your phone,answering emails or watching just one more video.The next morning,you feel sleepy and impatient.That dessert or sandwich suddenly looks more appealing than your usual yogurt and berries.This isn't just about willpower.Your brain,short on rest,is pushing you toward quick,high- calorie foods. Research shows that lack of sleep disturbs hunger signals,weakens self-control and increases your risk of weight gain.Sleep loss affects millions.More than one-third of U.S.adults regularly get less than seven hours of sleep per night.Nearly three- quarters of teenagers fall short of the recommended 8-10 hours'sleep during the school week.First respondents,including nurses,firefighters and emergency workers, are especially affected due to night shifts and uncontrollable schedules.These patterns disturb the body's internal clock and are linked to increased appetite(),poor eating habits and higher risks for obesity and metabolic(代谢性的)disease. Studies show that after just one night of sleep loss,reward-related areas such as the amygdala(杏仁核)，a part of the brain that drives motivation and reward-seeking, become more reactive to inviting food.Your brain becomes more excited by junk food and less capable of resisting it.Participants in sleep loss studies not only rated high- calorie foods as more desirable but were also more likely to choose them,regardless of how hungry they actually felt. Sleep is as important as diet and exercise in maintaining a healthy weight Fortunately,even a few nights of consistent,high-quality sleep can help rebalance key systems and start to improve some of these effects.So the next time you find yourself reaching for junk food after a short night,recognize that your body is reacting to stress Sleep is your most powerful tool for appetite control,energy control and long-term health. 32.What problem does the author point out in paragraph 1? A.Sleep loss stimulates the brain for appetite. B.Staying up late can make people dizzy C.High-calorie foods are more attractive. D.People are addicted to using mobile phones. 33.Why are first respondents more likely to suffer from sleep loss? A.They bear expectation of the society. B.They have unhealthy lifestyles C.They have uncontrollable and shifting schedules. D.They have much pressure from the workload 34.Why is the brain more likely to change into the reward mode after a lack of sleep? A.The brain reacts more quickly to the environment B.Sleep loss changes how the brain rates food. C.The brain becomes more active and unrealistic D.Sleep loss changes how the body absorbs nutrients 35.Which would be the best title for the text? A.How Sleep Loss Disturbs Body's Internal Clock B.Why Quality Sleep Matters for Weight Management C.Sleep,Diet and Exercise:Keys to Healthy Living D.Sleep Shortage:The Hidden Driver of Junk Food Desires 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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中 有两项为多余选项。 When something goes wrong,do you tend to bounce back or fall apart?When you have resilience(恢复力)，you have the inner strength that helps you rebound from a setback or challenge.36 Here are some skills to help you develop resilience.

Then came the school's talent show.Posters everywhere read:"Find Your Voice". Funny but sad,Meher thought.Her art teacher,Miss Sofia,walked to her."These are beautiful.Why don't you show your works at the talent show?"Miss Sofia suggested. Meher shook her head nervously."Me?On stage?"Meher thought."With my stutter?Impossible."But Miss Sofia smiled."What if you didn't have to speak...just show your story?" Miss Sofia's words kept Meher thinking long after class.That night,an idea flashed through Meher's mind.What if she told her story through animation(动画片)？ Using her computer and a borrowed projector from Miss Sofia,Meher turned her sketches into a short animation-The Girl Behind the Curtain." As the images came to life,Meher felt something she hadn't felt in years-hope. The girl in the film stuttered,too.When people laughed,a shadowy curtain grew around her like walls.But whenever someone was kind or when she felt brave,she made openings in the curtain.Little by little,light broke through. The day of the show arrived before Meher knew it.On the night of the show, Meher stood behind the curtain.She didn't go on stage.But her animation played on the big screen.At first,there was silence.Then quiet voices.Then tears. 注意： 1.续写词数应为150个左右： 2.请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 When the animation ended and Meher's name appeared on the screen,a great cheer went up from the crowd. From that day on,"Mute Meher"disappeared.
