I was a graduate student in Manhattan having breakfast n my rftp n Sept. 11, 2001, when I witnessed planes hit the Twin Twers. Fr mnths afterwards, I shk with anxiety every mrning. Unwilling t medicate, I tried everything else. Mindfulness meditatin (冥想) caused panic attacks. Ht yga built muscle but did nthing fr my anxiety. I went t talks by Buddhist mnks and meditatin teachers hping t attain inner peace, but in vain. Finally, I attended a SKY Breath Meditatin class, which invlves a 20-minute breathing regimen (养生之道) in different pstures and rhythms. Thugh I went in skeptical, I came ut calm. Tw decades later, I never missed a day f my breathing practice, nt even when I gave birth.
I've als devted part f my research career t studying the benefits f breathing fr mental health and well-being. Seven years after 9/11, I was wrking with veterans returning frm war with pst-traumatic stress disrder (PTSD). Traditinal treatments had failed many f them, s my clleagues and I ran a randmized cntrlled trial t test the effects f SKY breathing. Cmpared with the cntrl grup, veterans practicing SKY every day fr ne week saw their anxiety drp t levels typical f the general ppulatin. Even thugh mst did nt cntinue t practice, they maintained the benefits a year later.
Emtins influence yur breathing patterns, and changing yur breathing can change yur emtins. Fr example, anxiety and anger crrespnd t an irregular, shrt, fast breath. Adpting the slwer and mre regular breathing pattern that crrespnds t a calm feeling signals relaxatin by activating the vagus nerve (交感神经)，slwing heart rate, easing bld pressure, and settling yu dwn. A simple exercise yu can try is t clse yur eyes and breathe ut fr twice as lng as yu breathe in. D this fr five minutes in the mrning, befre a stressful meeting r as yu transit frm wrk t hme.
24. Why did the authr attend the SKY Breath Meditatin class?
A. T relieve inner anxiety.B. T build up muscles.
C. T learn mre abut meditatin.D. T quest fr religius belief.
25. Hw did the authr test the effects f SKY breathing?
A. She wrked with healthy veterans returning frm war.
B. She chse victims suffering PTSD in the 9/11 incident.
C. She cperated with researchers frm mindfulness meditatin classes.
D. She divided the veterans int tw grups and cmpared results.
26. What can we learn frm the last paragraph?
A. It is harmful t activate the vagus nerve.
B. Breathing interacts with emtins.
C. Breathing ut as lng as yu breathe in is a simple way t fllw.
D. Breathing regimen shuld be carried ut fr five minutes every mrning.
27. Which f the fllwing is the best title fr the text?
A. PTSD: mre awareness neededB. SKY: better well-being attained
C. Meditatin: an effective treatmentD. Breath: detailed ways t cnduct
C
The cmmnly held belief that it takes 21 days t frm a new habit can be traced back t a 1960 bk by plastic surgen Maxwell Maltz called Psych-Cybernetics. In his wrk treating patients wh had gne thrugh facial recgnitin surgery, Maltz nticed that it typically tk arund three weeks fr them t adjust t seeing their new faces in the mirrr. He als fund that individuals wh had lst a limb still sensed “phantm”(幻觉的) pains in the missing arm r leg fr abut 21 days.
Based n these perceptins(认知) f recvery time after significant physical changes, Maltz therized in his bk that it likely takes a minimum f 21 days fr the neurlgical pathways in ur brains assciated with ld behavirs and habits t g away, and fr new mental images and rutines t take firm rt. This idea f a standardized 21-day frmatin perid fr habits sn became widely accepted.
Hwever, Maltz was drawing casual inferences rather than cnducting strict scientific research. It was nt until 2010 that health psychlgist Phillipa Lally at University Cllege Lndn decided t prperly study habit frmatin timelines. She designed a year-lng experiment that tracked 96 participants as they each established a single new habit f their chsing. Every day, subjects reprted n whether they successfully perfrmed their intended behavir that day as well as hw autmatic the actin felt.
Lally’s findings revealed that n average, it tk 66 days befre a habit became a nrmal part f a rutine and felt autmatic. But results varied widely, with habits frming anywhere frm 18 days up t 254 days between individuals. Perseverance was the key factr in successfully making a behavir habitual, with smetimes missing days nt stpping verall prgress.
This landmark study disprved the assumed 21-day standard and shwcased that a wide range f timelines are nrmal. Ultimately, being cmmitted t cnsistently practising a new behavir fr mnths, nt weeks, is what allws real habit change and imprvement t ccur naturally in the brain. Understanding habit frmatin as a gradual, individualized prcess helps peple develp psitive rutines withut unrealistic expectatins.
28. What is Maltz’s assumptin based n?
A. An intensive survey.B. Psychlgical wrk.
C. His persnal bservatin.D. The strict scientific research.
29. Why did Lally’s team cnduct the research?
A. T prve Maltz’s thery n habit frmatin.
B. T identify timelines fr establishing new habits.
C. T explre the factrs in impacting habit frmatin.
D. T present advantages f develping gd behavir.
30. What d we knw abut Lally’s findings?
A. There are large individual differences in frming habits.
B. Mst participants tk 66 days t make a behavir habitual.
C. It is harder t frm a new habit that t persist in an ld ne.
D. Occasinal stps have a big effect n the prgress f habit frmatin,
31. What is the purpse f the text?
A. T intrduce ways t establish a new habit.
B. T cmpare different studies f habit frmatin
C. T crrect a miscnceptin abut habit frmatin
D. T invlves readers in a 21-day habit frmatin activity
D
Given hw valuable intelligence and autmatin are, we will cntinue t imprve ur technlgy if we are at all able t. At a certain pint, we will build machines that are smarter than we are. Once we have machines that are smarter than we are, they will begin t imprve themselves. The cncern is really that we will build machines that are much mre cmpetent than we are. And the slightest divergence (分歧) between their gals and ur wn culd destry us.
Just think abut hw we relate t ants. We dn’t hate them. We dn’t g ut f ur way t harm them. In fact, smetimes we take pains nt t harm them. We step ver them n the sidewalk. But whenever their presence seriusly cnflicts with ne f ur gals, we will kill them withut hesitatin. The cncern is that we will ne day build machines that, whether they’re cnscius r nt, culd treat us with similar disregard.
The bare fact is that we will cntinue t imprve ur intelligent machines. We have prblems that we desperately need t slve. S we will d this, if we can. The train is already ut f the statin, and there’s n brake t pull. If we build machines that are mre intelligent than we are, they will very likely develp in ways that we can’t imagine, and transcend us in ways that we can’t imagine.
S imagine we hit upn a design f super intelligent AI that has n safety cncerns. This machine wuld be the perfect labr-saving device. It can design the machine that can build the machine which can d any physical wrk, pwered by sunlight, mre r less fr the cst f raw materials. S we’re talking abut the end f human labur. We’re als talking abut the end f mst intellectual wrk. S what wuld apes like urselves d in these circumstances?
But the mment we admit that infrmatin prcessing is the surce f intelligence, we have t admit that we are in the prcess f building sme srt f gd. Nw wuld be a gd time t make sure it’s a gd we can live with.
32. Why des the authr mentin ants in Paragraph 2?
A. T stress the presence f machines des cnflict with ur gals.
B. T shw imprved machines will escape frm us.
C. T indicate future intelligent machines culd treat us withut mercy
D. T cmpare intelligent machines t ants.
33. What des the underlines wrd “transcend” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A. Disable. B. Inspire. C. Disappint. D. Outpace.
34. Hw is the passage mainly develped?
A. By shwing evidence.B. By giving assumptins.
C. By making cmparisns.D. By analyzing statistics.
35. Which f the fllwing statements can best summarize the authr’s viewpint twards AI?
A. Human beings will n dubt be destryed by AI in the future.
B. Super intelligent AI will put an end t human labur eventually.
C. We shuld keep the develpment f AI within human’s cntrl.
D. Human beings shuld stp the develpment f super intelligent AI.

Suddenly,she thught f Landy,the girl being “pecked” by her classmates.“ I’m ging t take it hme and take gd care f it,”she said with a determined lk.Back in schl,Catherine sptted Landy sitting by herself in a crner. She kept her head dwn with her eyes fixed n the flr as usual. Catherine thught Landy was just like the pr little chicken,being teased and ignred by her classmates, merely due t her special height. She tld ther kids,“It’s time fr me t make an aplgy t Landy.” Astnished at what she said, all the kids burst ut screaming,“Talking t the lng spaghetti? Are yu crazy?”
But Catherine walked directly tward Landy,regardless f what they said. “Hi,Landy. I’m srry abut the spaghetti thing.” Catherine murmured an aplgy, her face reddening.“I knw it hurts yu. Can yu frgive me?" She figured Landy might just walk away. But she lifted her misty eyes and ndded yes. Catherine wiped away her tears,giving her a warm hug. Mved by the scene, the ther kids als came t ffer their sincere aplgies t Landy. Frm that day n, n ne made up silly chants abut Landy, and Catherine als gained an imprtant life lessn that everyne shuld be treated equally n matter hw special he r she was.
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Catherine是班上最酷的孩子，无论她去哪里，她都是聚光灯下的人物，一群孩子跟着她，做她做的每一件事；而她的同桌——Landy作为班里最高的孩子，经常被同学们取笑。Catherine不太喜欢同学们嘲笑Landy，但她也从来没有叫他们停下来，也从来没有和她说话。直到有一天，Catherine在爷爷的农场看到一只被欺负的小鸡才对Lancy有了愧疚之情，于是决定返校后向Lancy道歉，并与她友好相处。
【详解】1.段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容“突然，她想起了兰迪，那个被同学“啄”的女孩。”可知，第一段可描写Catherine意识到自己之前对待Lancy的态度不好，要用实际行动改变。
②由第二段首句内容“但Catherine不管他们说什么，直接朝Lancy走去。”可知，第二段可描写Catherine真诚地向Lancy道歉，并下定决心与其友好相处。
2.续写线索：想到被欺负的Lancy——再次看到Lancy被欺负——决定向Lancy道歉——真诚道歉——关系和解——感悟
3.词汇激活

I was a graduate student in Manhattan having breakfast n my rftp n Sept. 11, 2001, when I witnessed planes hit the Twin Twers. Fr mnths afterwards, I shk with anxiety every mrning. Unwilling t medicate, I tried everything else. Mindfulness meditatin (冥想) caused panic attacks. Ht yga built muscle but did nthing fr my anxiety. I went t talks by Buddhist mnks and meditatin teachers hping t attain inner peace, but in vain. Finally, I attended a SKY Breath Meditatin class, which invlves a 20-minute breathing regimen (养生之道) in different pstures and rhythms. Thugh I went in skeptical, I came ut calm. Tw decades later, I never missed a day f my breathing practice, nt even when I gave birth.
I've als devted part f my research career t studying the benefits f breathing fr mental health and well-being. Seven years after 9/11, I was wrking with veterans returning frm war with pst-traumatic stress disrder (PTSD). Traditinal treatments had failed many f them, s my clleagues and I ran a randmized cntrlled trial t test the effects f SKY breathing. Cmpared with the cntrl grup, veterans practicing SKY every day fr ne week saw their anxiety drp t levels typical f the general ppulatin. Even thugh mst did nt cntinue t practice, they maintained the benefits a year later.
Emtins influence yur breathing patterns, and changing yur breathing can change yur emtins. Fr example, anxiety and anger crrespnd t an irregular, shrt, fast breath. Adpting the slwer and mre regular breathing pattern that crrespnds t a calm feeling signals relaxatin by activating the vagus nerve (交感神经)，slwing heart rate, easing bld pressure, and settling yu dwn. A simple exercise yu can try is t clse yur eyes and breathe ut fr twice as lng as yu breathe in. D this fr five minutes in the mrning, befre a stressful meeting r as yu transit frm wrk t hme.
24. Why did the authr attend the SKY Breath Meditatin class?
A. T relieve inner anxiety.B. T build up muscles.
C. T learn mre abut meditatin.D. T quest fr religius belief.
25. Hw did the authr test the effects f SKY breathing?
A. She wrked with healthy veterans returning frm war.
B. She chse victims suffering PTSD in the 9/11 incident.
C. She cperated with researchers frm mindfulness meditatin classes.
D. She divided the veterans int tw grups and cmpared results.
26. What can we learn frm the last paragraph?
A. It is harmful t activate the vagus nerve.
B. Breathing interacts with emtins.
C. Breathing ut as lng as yu breathe in is a simple way t fllw.
D. Breathing regimen shuld be carried ut fr five minutes every mrning.
27. Which f the fllwing is the best title fr the text?
A. PTSD: mre awareness neededB. SKY: better well-being attained
C. Meditatin: an effective treatmentD. Breath: detailed ways t cnduct
C
The cmmnly held belief that it takes 21 days t frm a new habit can be traced back t a 1960 bk by plastic surgen Maxwell Maltz called Psych-Cybernetics. In his wrk treating patients wh had gne thrugh facial recgnitin surgery, Maltz nticed that it typically tk arund three weeks fr them t adjust t seeing their new faces in the mirrr. He als fund that individuals wh had lst a limb still sensed “phantm”(幻觉的) pains in the missing arm r leg fr abut 21 days.
Based n these perceptins(认知) f recvery time after significant physical changes, Maltz therized in his bk that it likely takes a minimum f 21 days fr the neurlgical pathways in ur brains assciated with ld behavirs and habits t g away, and fr new mental images and rutines t take firm rt. This idea f a standardized 21-day frmatin perid fr habits sn became widely accepted.
Hwever, Maltz was drawing casual inferences rather than cnducting strict scientific research. It was nt until 2010 that health psychlgist Phillipa Lally at University Cllege Lndn decided t prperly study habit frmatin timelines. She designed a year-lng experiment that tracked 96 participants as they each established a single new habit f their chsing. Every day, subjects reprted n whether they successfully perfrmed their intended behavir that day as well as hw autmatic the actin felt.
Lally’s findings revealed that n average, it tk 66 days befre a habit became a nrmal part f a rutine and felt autmatic. But results varied widely, with habits frming anywhere frm 18 days up t 254 days between individuals. Perseverance was the key factr in successfully making a behavir habitual, with smetimes missing days nt stpping verall prgress.
This landmark study disprved the assumed 21-day standard and shwcased that a wide range f timelines are nrmal. Ultimately, being cmmitted t cnsistently practising a new behavir fr mnths, nt weeks, is what allws real habit change and imprvement t ccur naturally in the brain. Understanding habit frmatin as a gradual, individualized prcess helps peple develp psitive rutines withut unrealistic expectatins.
28. What is Maltz’s assumptin based n?
A. An intensive survey.B. Psychlgical wrk.
C. His persnal bservatin.D. The strict scientific research.
29. Why did Lally’s team cnduct the research?
A. T prve Maltz’s thery n habit frmatin.
B. T identify timelines fr establishing new habits.
C. T explre the factrs in impacting habit frmatin.
D. T present advantages f develping gd behavir.
30. What d we knw abut Lally’s findings?
A. There are large individual differences in frming habits.
B. Mst participants tk 66 days t make a behavir habitual.
C. It is harder t frm a new habit that t persist in an ld ne.
D. Occasinal stps have a big effect n the prgress f habit frmatin,
31. What is the purpse f the text?
A. T intrduce ways t establish a new habit.
B. T cmpare different studies f habit frmatin
C. T crrect a miscnceptin abut habit frmatin
D. T invlves readers in a 21-day habit frmatin activity

Given hw valuable intelligence and autmatin are, we will cntinue t imprve ur technlgy if we are at all able t. At a certain pint, we will build machines that are smarter than we are. Once we have machines that are smarter than we are, they will begin t imprve themselves. The cncern is really that we will build machines that are much mre cmpetent than we are. And the slightest divergence (分歧) between their gals and ur wn culd destry us.
Just think abut hw we relate t ants. We dn’t hate them. We dn’t g ut f ur way t harm them. In fact, smetimes we take pains nt t harm them. We step ver them n the sidewalk. But whenever their presence seriusly cnflicts with ne f ur gals, we will kill them withut hesitatin. The cncern is that we will ne day build machines that, whether they’re cnscius r nt, culd treat us with similar disregard.
The bare fact is that we will cntinue t imprve ur intelligent machines. We have prblems that we desperately need t slve. S we will d this, if we can. The train is already ut f the statin, and there’s n brake t pull. If we build machines that are mre intelligent than we are, they will very likely develp in ways that we can’t imagine, and transcend us in ways that we can’t imagine.
S imagine we hit upn a design f super intelligent AI that has n safety cncerns. This machine wuld be the perfect labr-saving device. It can design the machine that can build the machine which can d any physical wrk, pwered by sunlight, mre r less fr the cst f raw materials. S we’re talking abut the end f human labur. We’re als talking abut the end f mst intellectual wrk. S what wuld apes like urselves d in these circumstances?
But the mment we admit that infrmatin prcessing is the surce f intelligence, we have t admit that we are in the prcess f building sme srt f gd. Nw wuld be a gd time t make sure it’s a gd we can live with.
32. Why des the authr mentin ants in Paragraph 2?
A. T stress the presence f machines des cnflict with ur gals.
B. T shw imprved machines will escape frm us.
C. T indicate future intelligent machines culd treat us withut mercy
D. T cmpare intelligent machines t ants.
33. What des the underlines wrd “transcend” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A. Disable. B. Inspire. C. Disappint. D. Outpace.
34. Hw is the passage mainly develped?
A. By shwing evidence.B. By giving assumptins.
C. By making cmparisns.D. By analyzing statistics.
35. Which f the fllwing statements can best summarize the authr’s viewpint twards AI?
A. Human beings will n dubt be destryed by AI in the future.
B. Super intelligent AI will put an end t human labur eventually.
C. We shuld keep the develpment f AI within human’s cntrl.
D. Human beings shuld stp the develpment f super intelligent AI.

Dear Zhang Ming,
I’m glad t hear frm yu. Yu said that yu are full f gratitude t yur parents, but yu dn’t knw hw t express it. I can quite understand yur inner anxiety. In ur traditinal culture, we seldm express lve and ur feelings directly t each ther. Here I have sme suggestins fr yu.
Yu can shw yur appreciatin thrugh sme small acts f kindness,such as preparing a delicius meal fr yur parents r just giving them a warm hug. After all, actins speak luder than wrds. Writing a thank-yu nte n sme big days is als advisable because all parents lve that.
I genuinely hpe my suggestins can be helpful t yu.
Yurs,
Li Hua

Suddenly,she thught f Landy,the girl being “pecked” by her classmates.“ I’m ging t take it hme and take gd care f it,”she said with a determined lk.Back in schl,Catherine sptted Landy sitting by herself in a crner. She kept her head dwn with her eyes fixed n the flr as usual. Catherine thught Landy was just like the pr little chicken,being teased and ignred by her classmates, merely due t her special height. She tld ther kids,“It’s time fr me t make an aplgy t Landy.” Astnished at what she said, all the kids burst ut screaming,“Talking t the lng spaghetti? Are yu crazy?”
But Catherine walked directly tward Landy,regardless f what they said. “Hi,Landy. I’m srry abut the spaghetti thing.” Catherine murmured an aplgy, her face reddening.“I knw it hurts yu. Can yu frgive me?" She figured Landy might just walk away. But she lifted her misty eyes and ndded yes. Catherine wiped away her tears,giving her a warm hug. Mved by the scene, the ther kids als came t ffer their sincere aplgies t Landy. Frm that day n, n ne made up silly chants abut Landy, and Catherine als gained an imprtant life lessn that everyne shuld be treated equally n matter hw special he r she was.
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Catherine是班上最酷的孩子，无论她去哪里，她都是聚光灯下的人物，一群孩子跟着她，做她做的每一件事；而她的同桌——Landy作为班里最高的孩子，经常被同学们取笑。Catherine不太喜欢同学们嘲笑Landy，但她也从来没有叫他们停下来，也从来没有和她说话。直到有一天，Catherine在爷爷的农场看到一只被欺负的小鸡才对Lancy有了愧疚之情，于是决定返校后向Lancy道歉，并与她友好相处。
【详解】1.段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容“突然，她想起了兰迪，那个被同学“啄”的女孩。”可知，第一段可描写Catherine意识到自己之前对待Lancy的态度不好，要用实际行动改变。
②由第二段首句内容“但Catherine不管他们说什么，直接朝Lancy走去。”可知，第二段可描写Catherine真诚地向Lancy道歉，并下定决心与其友好相处。
2.续写线索：想到被欺负的Lancy——再次看到Lancy被欺负——决定向Lancy道歉——真诚道歉——关系和解——感悟
3.词汇激活
行为类
①抱起：scp/hld/take
