When yu see smene take that first sip f freshly made milk tea, their faces lk like pure jy. Acrss the wrld, custmers flck t their favrite spts t meet with friends and savr sips f these tasty drinks.
In the early 2000s, thugh, milk tea was just cming n the scene. The few brands that earned a fthld in the industry were cncerned: Wuld milk tea just be anther fad （一时风尚） fd? And with s much new excitement fr this prduct, wuld, peple be able t distinguish milk tea cmpanies? These were the questins that Serenitea, a Manila- based milk- tea cmpany, faced in 2014．While successfully pening 60 stres, they fund themselves in a strategic fg.
Unsure f what cnsumers truly felt twards the drink, they ffered as many flavrs as pssible. They als had n clear definitin f hw they were distinct — their brand prmise, prduct line, and prduct packaging all seemed nearly identical t their cmpetitrs. Hw culd they define themselves, in a way that wuld deeply resnate?
Like Airbnb, Serenitea partnered with an agency, CIA Btleg Manila, which specializes in drilling dwn t the deep cnsumer “why”. The agency cnducted a series f psychlgical- based market research. Specifically, they prbed the cnsumer’s deeper, emtinal cnnectins t milk tea, including their earliest childhd memries f milk and tea. Their research revealed that milk tea triggered three cnsistent psychlgical respnses.
Peple cnnected t milk thrugh the cncept f nurturing; they fndly remembered their childhd and being cared fr by their mthers.

Lastly, they assciated milk tea itself with teenage fun: a guilty pleasure f their yuth. They had uncvered the three psychlgical crnerstnes f the milk tea experience: nurturing, healing, and teenage fun. This set f insights was crucial. By including them int the cre f their brand strategy, they charted an entirely new path.

A．Made an adjustment.B．Wn a psitin.
C．Lst the initiative.D．Achieved a breakthrugh.

In a digital, glbal wrld where thinking critically and generating new ideas cunt, a cradle- t- career apprach t educating children must be mindful f hw children learn t learn, nt just what they learn. The Intellectual Lives f Children allws readers t lk int the minds f kids as they explre and learn in everyday mments, emphasizing what cnstitutes real learning.
Children are brn with playful curisity. They ask questins abut everything— Why des a tree have leaves? Why des the Sun cme up? These questins help children discver the causal relatinships amng things — all with the guidance f adults.
Yet explratins take time. As Engel writes, “when children are allwed t div e int a tpic thrughly, they cnnect unrelated facts and generate new ideas.” The real mental wrk takes place as they play — when a child builds a platfrm f chairs t get ckies frm an ut- f- reach ckie bx. Hidden in these mments are strengthened curisity and innvatin. Hurried parents ften lack the ability t allw that time, fearing that their children might be late fr their next scheduled activity.
“It becmes clear that the educatinal system in U. S. des nt cncern itself with children’s intellectual lives,” warns Engel in the bk. Instead, she hpes t reimagine schls as “idea factries” built n inspiring curisity: “Imagine assessing students prgress under sme new headings: pses interesting questins, … and spends time slving them.
In ne lvely example, Engel describes a teacher wh challenged her students t cnstruct a recrd- breaking straw chain measuring 3.8 miles. “Winning wuld be fun, but the cgnitive（认知的） benefits wuld be far- reaching,” explains the teacher, whse gal was t help the children better understand the depth f the Mariana Trench.
With scientific insight and vivid examples, Engel’s bk ffers tips fr hw t make the learning mre apparent. She encurages parents t see children as active thinkers and suggests that by asking pen- ended questins and letting them explre, children will be better prepared fr a cmplex and ever- changing wrld.
32．Hw will children’s playful curisity becme real learning?
A．By giving kids a time limit.B．By planning ut extra activities.
C．By remembering casual facts.D．By allwing kids t fully explre.
33．What’s Engel’s attitude tward American educatinal system?
A．Critical.B．Unclear.C．Uncncerned.D．Tlerant.
34．What is special abut Engel’s bk?
A．It presents a cmplicated wrld.B．It prmtes scheduled activities.
C．It cmbines science and practice.D．It features pen- ended questins.
35．What is the best title fr the text?
A．Fun Inspires Kids’ CurisityB．Play Develps Better Thinkers
C．Reading Feeds Yung MindsD．Hurried Parents Teach Kids Well

【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段的“If he seems a little defensive, it might be because even sme f his cwrkers ccasinally laugh at his unusual methds.（如果他看起来有点戒备的姿态，那可能是因为他的一些同事偶尔会嘲笑他不寻常的方法。）”可知，Farber的同事们有时会嘲笑他不寻常的方法，他们认为他很奇怪。故选A。
【25题详解】

【26题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段内容“Leigh Tindale’s dg Charlie had a serius heart cnditin. After Charlie had a heart attack, Tindale says, she was prepared t put him t sleep, but Farber’s treatments eased her dg’s suffering s much that she was able t keep him alive fr an additinal five mnths.

【答案】28．B 29．A 30．C 31．C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了Serenitea这个奶茶品牌在发展过程中遇到的挑战，以及他们如何通过深入研究消费者心理，找到了品牌的独特定位，从而开辟了一条全新的发展道路。
【28题详解】
词句猜测题。根据下文“These were the questins that Serenitea, a Manila- based milk- tea cmpany, faced in 2014．While successfully pening 60 stres, they fund themselves in a strategic fg.”（这些都是马尼拉奶茶公司 Serenitea在2014年面临的问题。虽然成功地开了60家店，但他们发现自己陷入了战略迷雾。）可知，马尼拉奶茶公司Serenitea虽然已经开了60家店，在奶茶行业成功立足，但它仍然充满担忧。由此推知，“马尼拉奶茶公司Serenitea”是对划线词所在句中“The few brands that earned a fthld in the industry”的举例说明,其意为“为数不多的在这个行业站稳脚跟的品牌”，后置定语从句“that earned a fthld in the industry”中 “earned a fthld”的意思是“赢得了一席之地；站稳脚跟”，即“Wn a psitin”。故选B项。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“And with s much new excitement fr this prduct, wuld, peple be able t distinguish milk tea cmpanies? These were the questins that Serenitea, a Manila- based milk- tea cmpany, facedin2014.”（伴随着这款产品带来的如此多的新兴奋点，人们能否区分开奶茶公司呢？这些是马尼拉一家奶茶公司Serenitea在2014年所面临的问题。）和第三段中“They als had n clear definitin f hw they were distinct — their brand prmise, prduct line, and prduct packaging all seemed nearly identical t their cmpetitrs. Hw culd they define themselves, in a way that wuld deeply resnate?”（他们也不清楚自己究竟有何独特之处——他们的品牌承诺、产品线和产品包装似乎都与竞争对手几乎一模一样。他们究竟该如何界定自身，才能引起消费者的强烈共鸣呢？）可推知，Serenitea在2014年的主要担忧是自身品牌与其他奶茶品牌没有区分度，容易混淆。故选A项。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“Like Airbnb, Serenitea partnered with an agency, CIA Btleg Manila, which specializes in drilling dwn t the deep cnsumer ‘why’. The agency cnducted a series f psychlgical- based market research. Specifically, they prbed the cnsumer’s deeper, emtinal cnnectins t milk tea, includingt heir earliest childhd memries f milk and tea.”（像Airbnb一样，Serenitea与一家名为 CIA Btleg Manila的机构合作，该机构专门研究深入探究消费者的‘为什么’。该机构进行了一系列以心理为基础的市场调查。具体来说，他们探究了消费者与奶茶更深层次的情感联系，包括他们童年对牛奶和茶的最早记忆。）可知，CIA Btle g Manila进行了一系列以心理为基础的市场调查，专门深入探究消费者的心理。故选C项。
【31题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Next, cnsumers cnnected tea t its healing prperties; respndents wuld recall receiving tea when they had indigestin prblems r seeing their parents drinking herbal tea fr health reasns.”（其次，消费者将奶茶与其治愈特性联系起来；受访者会回忆起当他们消化不良时收到茶，或者看到他们的父母为了健康原因喝草药茶。）可知，研究发现消费者把奶茶与健康联系起来。故选C项。

These questins help children discver the causal relatinships amng things（孩子们生来就有顽皮的好奇心。他们问一切问题——为什么一棵树有叶子？太阳为什么会升起? 这些问题帮助孩子们发现事物之间的因果关系）”和第三段中“Yet explratins take time. As Engel writes, “when children are allwed t div e int a tpic thrughly, they cnnect unrelated facts and generate new ideas.” The real mental wrk takes place as they play（然而，探索需要时间。正如恩格尔所写，“当孩子们被允许深入研究一个主题时，他们会将不相关的事实联系起来，并产生新的想法。”真正的脑力劳动是在他们玩耍时发生的）”可知，当孩子们被允许深入探索一个话题时，他们会将不相关的事实联系起来，并产生新的想法。这表明通过允许他们充分探索，可以将孩子们玩乐的好奇心转化为真正的学习。故选D。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中Engel的话“It becmes clear that the educatinal system in U. S. des nt cncern itself with children’s intellectual lives（显然，美国的教育体系并不关注儿童的智力生活）”可知，Engel明确指出美国的教育体系并不关心孩子们的智力生活，这表明她对美国的教育体系持批评态度。故选A。

They ask questins abut everything — Why des a tree have leave? Why des the Sun cme up? These questins help children discver the causal relatinships amng things （孩子们生来就有顽皮的好奇心。他们问一切问题——为什么一棵树有叶子？太阳为什么会升起？这些问题帮助孩子们发现事物之间的因果关系）”和第三段中“The real mental wrk takes place as they play — when a child builds a platfrm f chairs t get ckies frm an ut- f- reach ckie bx. Hidden in these mments are strengthened curisity and innvatin.（真正的脑力劳动发生在他们玩耍的时候——当一个孩子搭建一个椅子平台，从一个够不着的饼干盒里拿饼干时。隐藏在这些时刻的是增强的好奇心和创新。）”可知，文章主要讨论了在儿童教育中应重视培养其探索能力和好奇心的重要性。故B项“Play Develps Better Thinkers（玩耍培养出更好的思考者）”准确地概括了文章的主旨，即玩耍和探索对于儿童智力发展的重要性。故选B。

The prducts that pwer the smart hme are light years away frm the myth arund them.（因此，不要让关于家庭自动化的神话和技术术语吓到你！为智能家居提供动力的产品离围绕它们的神话还有光年之遥）”可知，上文提到了智能家庭自动化是一项新兴技术，结合文章主要说明了智能家居自动化的一些好处，故D选项“这项强大的技术对房主有很多好处”符
