Wmen in pst-pregnancy tend t respndslwer t the utside wrld than they didbefre. In the West, this phenmenn is called“pregnancy brain”. In China, peple describe itas“wmen are slwer and less sharp fr threeyears after giving birth.” Hwever,studies shwed that they are nt less sharp.Rather, their brains are becming better wiredfr parenting at the cst f memry.
In their 2016 research,Elseline Hekzemaand her team frm the Netherlands scanned25 wmen’s brains befre and duringpregnancy. The MRI results shwedthat there was a decrease in the amunt fexpectant mthers’ grey matter in their brains,which is respnsible fr multiple functins,including muscle cntrl, emtins, speech andmemry.
The decrease in grey matter isn’t necessarilya bad thing. Hekzema cmpared it with thedrp in the grey matter f teenagersduring puberty(青春期). Accrding t aprevius study, during puberty, teenagers’hrmnes cause a reductin in unnecessarysynapses (突触), the cnnectins between nervecells. This prcess makes the brain wrk mreefficiently. Likewise, the reductin f greymatter in new mthers’ brains might lead tgreater parenting abilities.
The changes in the regin f grey matteraffected by pregnancy are knwn t play a rlein scial cgnitin(认知). This change mighthelp a new mther better understand anddecde her baby’s facial expressins and needs.Based n the results, scientists believed that the female brain experiences changes thelp them better prepare fr mtherhd.
In a recent study led by Jnny Khl frmLndn’s Francis Crick Institute, experimentsn the brains f pregnant mice prvide cncreteevidence that specific hrmnes imprvedcnnectins between neurns(神经元) assciated withparenting behavirs. While cnducted n mice, thisbrain remdeling agrees with previus human studies,suggesting shared mechanisms, Newsweek reprted.
Hwever, this imprvement in parenting-relatedskills might cme at a cst. A 2010 study shwedpregnant wmen have prer memry skills thannn-pregnant wmen, particularly cncerningspatialrecgnitin memry. This explainswhy many pregnant wmen smetimes lse theirway n familiar rutes.
And accrding t Hekzema, the changes inwmen’s brains are lng-lasting. S, next time yurmm gets lst in a familiar place, be patient andkind t her. After all, her brain changed t bring yuint the wrld!
28. During pregnancy, what happens t wmen’sbrains?
A. They increase in amunt.B. They becme mre cmplex.
C. They generate new neur cells.D. They lse sme grey matter.
29. Hw might the changes in wmen’s brainsduring pregnancy benefit them?
A. By imprving their wrk efficiency.B. By bsting their muscle cntrl.
C. By strengthening their scial cgnitin.D. By adjusting their emtinal state.
30. What d we knw abut Jnny Khl’s study?
A. It cnflicted with Hekzema’s team’s findings.
B. It cmpared pregnant mice with nn-pregnant nes.
C.It explred the link between hrmnechanges and parenting behavirs.
D. It cnfirmed the lng-lasting effects fpregnancy n wmen’s brains.
31. What is ne ptential disadvantage fbrainchanges in pregnant wmen?
A. Prer cmmunicatin skills.B. A weaker sense f directin.
C. A shrter length f attentin.D. Decreased prblem-slving abilities.

Warming seas acrss the glbe are endangering cral reefs(珊瑚礁), a key ecsystem that supprts marinelife t live and thrive. As a pssible way t save them frm extinctin, scientists have recently frzen and revived grups f adult crals fr the first time, accrding t a recent study.
Freezing bilgical materials, r “crypreserving” them, refers t keeping them in a deep freeze fr lng perids withut affecting the cell’s viability(活性), accrding t the Science Times website.
This methd usually cls them t very lw temperatures, cmmnly t-196℃.Since cells wuld nrmally die at such a lw temperature due t the frmatin f ice inside, scientists need t mnitr the freezing rate and chse the freezing medium carefully.
Researchers in the US experimented with freezing pea-sizedpieces f a cmmn cral in Hawaii. After remving the micrbesn the crals, they sealedthe crals in metal cntainers filled with a chemical slutin that partially dehydrated(脱水) them and helped cntrl ice grwth.
When the crals reached a temperature f arund-200℃, the remaining water in the crals slidified int a glassy frm. The crals were still alive, with their life-driving functins becming extremely slw. After being crypreserved fr a few minutes, the researchers pulled the crals ut and placed them in warm water. In tw minutes, they started cnsuming xygen— a sign f them staying alive.
Previusly, researchers had already successfully crypreserved cral larvae(幼虫), accrding t a study in 2018.Hwever, the larvae can nly be cllected when crals lay eggs, which happens just a few nights each year.“That’s putting a lt f eggs in ne basket,” US marine scientist Liza Rger tld Science News.
This breakthrugh ffers mre hpe t the wrld’s crals, said Rger. Hwever, there’s mre wrk t be dne. A few days after thawing(解冻), the crals became “stressed ut” frm the prcess and were killed by the bacteria they nrmally live in harmny with. The researchers are wrking n using antibiticst help them survive fr a lnger perid f time.
32.What is the purpse f the recent study?
A. T bring dead crals back t life. B. T freeze and revive cral larvae.
C. T find a way t preserve crals. D. T study the cnditins f cral grwth.
33.What happened t the crals when they were crypreserved?
A. They died fr the time being. B. Their life functins slwed dwn.
C. They remained alive and unchanged. D. They fed n micrbes in the cntainers.
34.What des Rger think abut crypreserving cral larvae?
A. It is nt a reliable slutin. B. It needs a large number f eggs.
C. It hlds prmise fr restring crals. D. It requires verly expensive technlgy.
35.What issue d the researchers still need t apprach?
A. Finding a suitable freezing medium.B. Identifying the bacteria n the crals.
C. Expanding the cllectin f cral larvae. D. Maintaining the crals’ health after thawing.

WHY A DOSE OF FEAR IS GOOD FOR YOU
Eleanr Rsevelt nce said: “D ne thing every day that scares yu.” She was nt smething. Science has shwn that feeling fear — in the right dses (量) — has several benefits.
·Feeling fear is fun and exciting. Many peple scare themselves n purpse. 36
When yu step utside yur cmfrt zne, it is fear that makes yu feel alive, which is fun and exciting. The excitement generated can als help reduce depressin by increasing adrenaline (肾上腺素), which in turn increases excitement and glucse (changed int energy). 37 A dse f fear is an “eraser” fr the mind.
·38 Being afraid f smething can remind yu f an area f yur life that is limiting yu. Fr instance, if yu’re afraid f flying but face the fear and gather up the curage t step n an airplane, yu can travel the wrld. Adding t yur experiences means that yu’ll create a varied life. Yu’ll als have fewer regrets.
·Fear makes yu aware f what’s really imprtant in life. Hw ften have yu said t yurself: “When I have mre time, I’ll spend it with my family, pursue my passin, eat healthier r exercise mre”? Fear makes yu realize that “nw” is the nly time yu have t achieve and fllw thrugh what is mst imprtant.
39
Sme say where fear meets curage is the sweet spt in which muntains get scaled and rivers are run. 40 We shuld all embrace ur fear. Nt the big fears that are life-threatening but the helpful fears that cme in small dses.
A. Fear helps yu succeed.
B. “Later” is never ensured.
C. Fear allws yu t live life t the fullest.
D. They watch scary mvies, ride rller casters r g skydiving.
E. And every time yu cme thrugh a challenge, yu feel empwered.
F. Mst f all, fear can be the birth place f change, creativity and innvatin.
G. Actually, it’s nearly impssible t be thinking f yur wrries when yu are experiencing fear.

22.B理解具体信息。根据第二本书中的Chef Masn Herefrd ... his ppular New Orleans sandwich shp, Turkey and the Wlf并结合小标题Turkey and the Wlf: Flavr Trippin’ in New Orleans by Masn Herefrd可知，Turkey and the Wlf是以作者的三明治店命名的。

B篇
本文是一篇记叙文。让孩子爱上阅读并不容易，阿尔文·艾尔比正在为此努力，从理发店开始。
24. A词义猜测题。根据第一段可知，一位老师在理发，老师的一名学生也来到了理发店，而学生在这里却无事可做，根据下文“理发店图书”的项目可以推知，学生此时最有可能是“坐立不安的”。
25. D细节理解题。根据第三段可知，在项目所涉及的每一家理发店里面，艾尔比都放置了一个彩色的、适合儿童身高的书架，充分考虑到儿童的实际爱好，以此来吸引到理发店的儿童在理发店也可以阅读书籍。
26. B细节理解题。根据第四段最后一句可知，丹尼·摩尔也想为这个项目做些自己的贡献，所以才放弃在店里提供电子游戏，转而提供书籍。
27. D主旨大意题。文章主要讲述阿尔文·艾尔比为了减少儿童文盲在美国多家理发店摆满免费图书，让理发店成为孩子们读书的“黄金屋”，希望孩子们爱上阅读，让阅读真正改变他们的人生。
C篇
本文是说明文。科学家揭示了“一孕傻三年”背后的真相。
28. D 根据第二段In their 2016 research, Elseline Hekzema and her team frm the Netherlands scanned 25 wmen's brains befre and during pregnancy. The MRI(核磁共振) results shwed that there was a decrease in the amunt f expectant mthers' grey matter in their brains可知，科学家在2016年研究过程中核磁共振扫描25位女性在孕前和孕后的大脑，结果显示这些女性怀孕后大脑灰质减少。
29. C 根据第四段The changes in the regin f grey matter affected by pregnancy are knwn t play a rle in scial cgnitin可知，女性怀孕后大脑灰质区的变化对其社会认知能力有一定影响。
30. C 根据第五段In a recent study led by Jnny Khl frm Lndn's Francis Crick Institute, experiments n the brains f pregnant mice prvide cncrete evidence that specific hrmnes imprved cnnectins between neurns assciated with parenting behavirs可知，Jnny Khl团队对于孕鼠大脑的研究探索了老鼠怀孕后特定的激素与养育行为之间的联系。
31. B 根据第六段第二三句可知女性怀孕后记忆能力特别是空间识别记忆能力会更差，方向感会更差，经常会在熟悉的路线上迷路。
D篇
本文是一篇说明文，介绍了科学家通过冷冻的方式来保护珊瑚礁免于灭绝。
32. C.细节题。根据第一段As a pssible way t save them frm extinctin, scientists have recently frzen and revived grups f adult crals fr the first time可知，科学家将珊瑚冷冻是为了使它们免于灭绝。
33. B.根据第五段The crals were still alive, with their life-driving functins becming extremely slw可知，当珊瑚被冷冻时，它们还活着，但是它们的生命机能减缓。
34. A.根据第六段可知，之前科学家成功冷冻了珊瑚的幼虫，但是珊瑚的幼虫只有在珊瑚产卵的时候才能收集，而珊瑚产卵每年只发生在几个夜晚，因此Rger认为那等于是把很多鸡蛋放在一个篮子里，言外之意是这个方法很不可靠。
35. D.根据最后一段可知，在解冻几天后，由于在冷冻的过程中珊瑚收到了伤害，它们被在正常情况下与之和谐共处的细菌杀死，因此科学家正在着手使用抗生素来帮助它们存活更长的时间。
第二节主题语境：人与社会——科学
本文是说明文。适度恐惧是有好处的。
36.D。设空处进一步解释前一句。许多人专门吓唬自己，“他们看恐怖电影，坐过山车或跳伞。”D项中的They指代前一句的Many peple.
37.G。根据设空处后一句的内容可知，设空处和人的心理活动有关，因此G项“当你经历恐惧时，几乎不可能想到你的担忧”符合语境。G项中的impssible t be thinking f yur wrries与后一句中“eraser”fr the mind相照应。
38.C。设空处所在段主要讲了如果人挑战内心的恐惧，做一些让自己害怕的事情，会丰富自己的经历，从而让自己的人生少一些遗憾，因此，C项“恐惧让你活得充实”符合语境。
39.B。根据设空处前一句可知，恐惧会让你意识到什么是重要的，并顿悟抓住“现在”时刻的意义，因此，B项“‘以后’永远无法保证（那些重要的人和事能被关心和完成)”符合语境。B项中的Later和前一句中的nw相照应。
40.F。最后一段总结全文。设空处与前一句在语义上构成递进关系。有人说恐惧与勇气相遇的地方，是最美好的地方。“最重要的是，恐惧可能是变革、创造力和创新的发源地。”因此，让我们拥抱恐惧！
完形填空
本文是记叙文。讲述一位汽车设计师Brian Petersn通过为无家可归者画像，筹集资金，设立公益机构帮助他们摆脱困境，回归正常生活的故事。
41.D 根据第二段43空后hmeless可知选D。
42.C 根据第三段第一句可知，Petersn那天是第一次交谈，此前只是路过，二人从未说过话。
43.A Brian在客厅“安静”地看书，此时被外面的叫喊声打扰。
44.B 受到所读书本内容的“启发”，他决定去跟Matt Faris谈谈。D. tuched“感动的”有干扰，但此处强调的是Petersn后来发起公益行动的起因（是受书中传递信息的启发才萌生了此念头）。48空前But his stry inspired me.也是类似表达。
45.C 根据54空及后面fulfilling his musical dreams可知，他原本是来“追求（从事）”音乐职业的。
46.D 因为世事维艰，怀揣音乐梦想的Matt Faris结果(ended up)无家可归，沦落街头。
47.B Brian根据Matt的，猜测他“很可能”(prbably)快一年没洗澡刮脸了。
48.A 此处前后为转折关系，“尽管”Petersn很久没画画了，却主动提出为Faris画肖像。
49.C 两人的联系促使Petersn创立了Faces f Santa Ana。A不对，两人不是邂逅(encunter)，而是Petersn主动去与Faris攀谈。
50.D 这家公益组织主要是(fcused n)为社区的无家可归者画像，帮助他们。
51.A 根据后文fr a few thusand dllars可知，Petersn我卖画筹钱帮助对方。
52.B 此处“subject”意为“（被画的）对象”，最后一段Anther subject, Kimberly有暗示。
53.A 短语get back n ne’s feet意为“重新站起来/振作起来”。
54.B Faris得到钱后，用它来“录制”了一张专辑，圆了自己的音乐梦。
55.C 母女俩得到支票后感动地“哭了”。
语法填空
56. n 此处考介词。a ban n... 一条关于……的禁令
57. latest 此处考查形容词。ne f...+名词，名词前常用形容词最高级。
58. Creatrs 此处考查名词。 “创作者”和品牌方可以在他们的视频和直播中添加“商店”按钮。
59. allwing 此处考查动词-ing做结果状语，表自然而然或意料之中的结果。
60. are meant 此处考查谓语动词。文中“这些规定从根本上说是要求将电子商务和社交媒体分开，旨在保护商家”，rules做主语，要用被动语态。
61. being affected 此处考查非谓语动词。prevent... frm being dne，防止市场“被影响”。
62. relied/had relied/had been relying 此处考查谓语动词。文中“一些依赖TikTk商店的印尼商家said...”
63. that 此处考查代词。他在TikTk的盈利是其他电子商务平台的三倍，that代指the prfit。
64. but 此处考查连词。文中印尼商家表示“关闭TikTk商店不是在拯救中小企业，而是在拯救其他电商平台”，不是……而是……。
65. where 此处考查连词。文中“这次严厉打击可能会增加TikTk商店在其他国家的运营压力”，where引导定语从句。
