As a she cbbler, Jim McFarland has spent his career with his eyes trained dwnward n his wrk. He never expected anyne t care much abut his craft. But McFarland, 59, nw has mre than 1 millin fllwers n scial media platfrm. He psts vides f his wrk as a cbbler—frm replacing thin sles t fixing zippers, reviving(恢复) rubber heels t adding custmized tuches t timewrn pieces. McFarland breathes new life int seemingly unwearable shes frm his shp in Lakeland, Flrida.
Viewers are fascinated by McFarland’s careful cbbling. While he ften uses a sanding machine, he des mst f the wrk by hand and with basic tls. In ne vide, which has been viewed nearly 60 millin times, McFarland revives and persnalizes a pair f limited-editin bts, painting the sles a deep blue shade. The vide shws every step f the painstaking prcess.
Accrding t McFarland, becming a cbbler isn’t simple. “It takes three t five years t learn the trade,” said McFarland, wh cmes frm a lng line f cbblers. “This is my family heritage, my histry. We’ve been at it fr a lng time.” As a teen , McFarland wasn’t keen n becming a cbbler. When he was 20, thugh, his father gt sick, and McFarland drpped ut f cllege t help him run the family business. He ultimately tk ver. “I have n regrets. I really lve being here.” McFarland said.
McFarland is an advcate fr buying high-quality shes and mending them as needed, rather than purchasing inexpensive and trendy shes that tend t nt weather well. He said he frequently fixes shes that are mre than 40 years ld. When he’s finished with them, “they’ll be gd fr prbably anther 30 t 50 years if yu take care f them,” he said.
McFarland’s mentality ges in line with the mending mvement, which prmtes repairing rather than replacing brken things. Unlike fast fashin, which has disastrus cnsequences fr the envirnment, the mending mvement seeks t reduce cnsumptin and waste. “Gd material can always be revived,” McFarland said. “It can last a lifetime.”
41.McFarland’s vides are s ppular because he ______.

43.Which f the fllwing wrds can best describe McFarland?
A.Skillful and devted.B.Open-minded and creative.
C.Friendly and cnsiderate.D.Hard-wrking and ambitius.

C.Creativity hlds the key t success.D.Mending cntributes t ec-fashin.

As yu craft yur reslutins fr 2025, cnsider adding ne t experience mre flw. Psychlgist Mihály Csíkszentmihályi has called flw as “the secret t happiness.” Flw is a state f psitive experience that each f us can incrprate int ur everyday lives, ne characterized by great jy that makes a life wrth living.
When peple feel flw, they are in a state f intense cncentratin. Their thughts are fcused n an experience rather than n themselves. They lse a sense f time and feel as if their actins and awareness becme ne. Flw ccurs when bth the task’s challenge and skill level are high. Peple will nt feel flw when they are ding the dishes. Csíkszentmihályi’s research in the 1970s fcused n peple ding tasks they enjyed. He studied swimmers, music cmpsers, dancers, muntain climbers and ther athletes. He fund ut that s lng as that task’s challenge is high, and s are yur skills, yu shuld be able t achieve flw.
Why is flw “the secret t happiness”? Fr ne thing, the experience can help peple pursue their lng-term gals. Research shws that taking a break t feel flw can enhance ne’s self-cntrl, gal pursuit and well-being. A recent study als shws that flw helps peple stay resilient (有适应力的)in the face f difficulty. Part f this is because flw can help refcus thughts away frm smething stressful t smething enjyable. In fact, studies have shwn that experiencing flw can help guard against depressin and burnut.
What is ging n in the brain during flw? Studies shw that the experience is assciated with increasing activatin in brain structures related t feeling reward. This may be ne reasn why flw feels s enjyable and why peple are s fcused n tasks that make them feel flw. Research als shws that flw is assciated with dampened activity in brain structures related t self-fcus and negative thughts. This may help explain why feeling flw can help distract (转移) peple frm wrry. Hwever, the abve-mentined studies were crrelatinal, nt causal. Further study f this cnnectin is vital.
45.Accrding t the passage, flw is mst likely t ccur when smene is ______.
A.playing chess against a tugh ppnentB.attending a cncert f his favrite singer
C.ding daily chres fr his family membersD.sharing his traveling experience with friends
46.Flw is called “the secret t happiness” partly because it can help ______.
A.turn demanding tasks int easier nes
B.distract peple frm negative thughts
C.remind peple t take necessary breaks
D.break lng-term gals int shrter nes
47.What des the underlined wrd “dampened” in Paragraph 4 mst prbably mean?
A.Planned.B.Imbalanced.C.Reduced.D.Activated.
48.Which wuld be the best title fr the passage?
A.When des the state f “flw” ccur?B.What happens in ur brain during “flw”?
C.Why des experiencing “flw” feel s gd?D.Hw can “flw” be achieved in everyday life?

I get that parents wrry abut screen time. But speaking as a researcher studying the effects f screen-based experiences, screens can be a great tl fr reading. Digital bks give children unique pprtunities t learn and imprve skills thrugh literacy apps. T that end, I am ne f many researchers in this field wh believe that digital reading shuld nt be cnsidered screen time in the traditinal sense.
With the large number f educatinal technlgical prducts that lack research and gd design, the millin-dllar questin is: What makes a digital stry gd fr children’s learning? Over the past 20 years, researchers have identified specific design features and reading situatins that make sme digital bks mre educatinal than thers. First, it’s crucial that digital bks ffer high-quality persnalized reading experiences. With bks that have AI-based text generatrs and a mre pen-ended design, children becme multimedia creatrs, c-writers and c-illustratrs f their wn stry universe. Secnd, digital bks can significantly enhance the parent-child reading experience. The questins embedded (嵌入的) in digital bks shuld mdel and expand what the parent might ask, and thrugh this mdeling, enhance the quality f parents’ talk arund the bk.
But as much as I supprt digital reading, the cmmercial turn in the develpment f ed tech wrries me, particularly in relatin t prfit-driven design and misuse f children’s data. Like sme scial media, subscriptin libraries turn kids’ attentin int a cmmdity (商品) thrugh autmatic bk recmmendatins. These bks are ften tied t advertising clicks and exhibit lw literary quality in their stries. Furthermre, there’s ften n cntent versight, allwing anyne t becme a publisher, which can lead t the creatin f biased r data-gathering materials targeting children. Generative AI has expanded cntent creatin pssibilities but als raised cncerns abut quality. In this regard, digital bks, like all ed tech, need strict quality checks and imprved cllabratin between researchers and develpers.
Anyway, the digital reading frmat has pened an exciting new research frntier. This includes using real-time data that teachers and ther prfessinals can use t individualize hw children learn t read. AI can be a gd partner in supprting adults’ chice f texts, prmpts and reading activities fr children, prvided it is trained with diverse data and valid reading mdels. As researchers’ calls fr evidence-based children’s ed tech are being heard by gvernments and funders, I hpe the past tw decades f e-bk research can deliver the advantages f digital bks t all children. Like it r nt, I hpe yu’ll see that, at least fr reading, screens can be an amazing tl t teach yur child t read.
49.What is the authr’s attitude twards cunting digital reading as screen time?
A.Supprtive.B.Neutral.C.Cautius.D.Disapprving.
50.Accrding t the passage, digital bks cntribute t ______.
A.mre pen-ended questinsB.quality parent-child interactin
C.persnalized design featuresD.changes in kids’ reading habits
51.What are the majr threats t digital reading?
A.Prfit-driven design and data misuse.B.The strict checks n the cntent.
C.The great number f advertisements.D.Lw literary quality but high prices.
52.What is the purpse f the passage?
A.T highlight the risks f screen time.B.T intrduce sme advances in ed tech.
C.T ffer anther view n digital reading.D.T present the benefits f reading nline.

Features f Mdern-Day Heres: Beynd Superpwers and Capes
In mdern sciety, herism has evlved(演变) frm the traditinal idea f a brave r nble character t individuals wh shw exceptinal curage, selflessness, and dedicatin t a cause. Frm healthcare wrkers and first respnders t scial activists, heres cme in all shapes and frms. 53 Fr this questin, we need t examine the varius characteristics that make a persn a her and the impact they have n sciety.
54 In ancient myths, herism was ften assciated with figures r warrirs with superhuman abilities. They were ften shwn as larger-than-life figures wh represented the values and beliefs f their wn cultures. As scieties became mre cmplex, the definitin f herism als changed.
In the mdern wrld, the term herism has a much brader meaning. While physical strength and fighting skills are still valued, mral curage, selflessness, and resilience have becme just as imprtant. In tday’s sciety, a mdern her can be smene wh stands up fr his r her beliefs, even if it ges against scietal nrms, r smene wh puts the needs f thers befre his r her wn.
One f the mst critical changes in mdern herism is including peple frm all walks f life. Tday, peple frm varius backgrunds and experiences are recgnized fr their cntributins, frm first respnders wh put their lives n the line in emergencies t activists wh fight fr scial justice. 55
The rise f scial media has als affected hw herism is viewed and celebrated. 56 The danger f scial media, hwever, is that it reduces herism t a ppularity cntest in which the deeds that are “liked” r “shared” the mst are cnsidered particularly heric. In reality, herism is much mre cmplex than that.
Althugh herism has evlved, it remains an essential aspect f ur sciety. Real heres remind us that we all have the pwer t psitively impact the wrld, n matter hw big r small ur deeds may seem.
Herism has cme a lng way since its rigins in ancient civilizatins. 57 Hwever, the true essence (实质) f herism isn’t ppularity r fame but a lasting cmmitment t serving thers and making the wrld a better place.
A.Mdern herism ften takes shape in acts f kindness.
B.Herism has a lng histry and varies in different cultures.
C.But what are the defining characteristics f a mdern her?
D.The evlutin f herism reflects the evlutin f sciety itself.
E.Mdern heres exist in every prfessin and every crner f sciety.
F.It has given rdinary peple a platfrm t share and get recgnized fr their heric deeds.
G.It has expanded t include mre peple and traits, and scial media has expanded its reach.

第一节(共4小题;第58-60小题各2分,第61小题5分,共11分)
阅读下面短文,根据题目要求用英文回答问题。请在答题纸指定区域作答。
Mst research supprts the idea that music’s main benefit fr students is the uplift f md and thus f abilities t cncentrate n tasks and study fr lnger perids f time.
What kind f music are we talking abut then? Sme Drake? Bach? SpngeBb? What’s the magic sng? Again, cmplicated(复杂). Yu want smething that’s ging t drp yu right int that sweet spt f what is called medium arusal; a playlist that’s t bring might make yu sleepy, while a sng that’s t exciting might make it harder fr yu t fcus. Sngs with 60-70 beats per minute have been suggested t be gd fr keeping infrmatin. Beethven’s Fr Elise is an example. Listening t Mzart has als been shwn in studies t imprve the prductivity f its listeners.
There’s quite a bit f cntrversy n the effectiveness f having music n while yu study, even music that puts yu in the right md. A study cnducted by the University f Wales fund that students cnsistently perfrmed wrse n tests when expsed bth t music that they liked and music they didn’t like, meaning that listening t music, regardless f hw it made the students feel, was fund t be just as distracting as a persn talking t yu while yu’re wrking.
That same study als fund that alng with a cmpletely quiet envirnment, students als perfrmed best when they were played repetitive sunds r sunds f nature.
Anther similar study, hwever, fund that while average perfrmance was lwer fr the music-listening grup, the variatin in individual scres suggests that the effects f the music vary a lt frm persn t persn, and hence why it’s difficult t definitely say whether music helps r hurts.
There seems t be agreement n ne thing at least, which is that music with lyrics(歌词) definitely is a n-g. Prcessing lyrics means there’s n rm in the language prcessing part f yur brain t wrk n ther tasks, especially when this invlves reading r writing. The brain, actually, desn’t have the ability t multitask at all. What yu think is multitasking is actually just yur pr ld ndle rapidly switching between everything, but cncentrating n nthing. Sad!
58.What kind f sngs can be gd fr keeping infrmatin?
59.Why is listening t music with lyric s nt helpful fr study?
60.Please decide which part is false in the fllwing statement, then underline it and explain why.
▶The study cnducted by the University f Wales fund that students perfrmed best when they were expsed t music.
61.Apart frm the aspects mentined in the passage, hw can listening t music influence yu? (In abut 40 wrds)
