Who doesn’t long for a favorite Chinese dish? But there is one interesting concept concerning Chinese food which is almost unheard of in the West, and which is becoming increasingly ignored by the youth of the East — the ancient custom of “tonic (滋补) food”.Tonic food is food which is consumed to improve one’s well-being or avoid sickness. For instance, it was once the custom for new mothers to eat a sesame oil (麻油) hot pot every day for the first month after giving birth. It was believed that this dish would benefit the muscles, reduce pain, improve circulation, stimulate sweating, and warm the body. Some foods, such as goat meat and spinach, are seen as “hot”, while others, such as Chinese cabbage and radishes, are seen as “cold”. One should be careful not to eat too much of either “hot” or “cold” food. However, how much “hot” or “cold” food one should eat depends on the time of the year, how the food is prepared and what it is prepared with, and the individual’s health.The custom of employing tonic food for a healthier life also influences the catering industry. Chinese herbal medicines, such as wolfberry (枸杞), can be found on many a restaurant menu, either added to fruit tea or as a beneficial addition to a dish. These herbs attract customers, such as overworked office staff, in need of a modest pick-me-up.So, whether you need to boost your strength with a large helping of chicken soup, or increase your mental powers with a serving of fish soup, you may find that this ancient Chinese custom could be just the tonic you were looking for.4.What is the present situation of tonic food?A.It is catching less attention.B.It is enjoyed by many young people.C.It is well-known worldwide.D.It is becoming increasingly popular.5.What is believed to benefit new mothers?A.Chinese cabbage.B.Fruit tea.C.Fish soup.D.Sesame oil hot pot.6.Which of the following best explains “catering” underlined in Paragraph 3?A.Medicine.B.Restaurant.C.Manufacture.D.Agriculture.7.What can be a suitable title for the text?A.The Charm of Chinese CuisineB.The Popularity of Tonic FoodC.An Introduction of Chinese Tonic FoodD.Differences Between Hot Food and Cold FoodIn 1983, Howard Blatt, an electrical engineer at MIT and a married father, collapsed in his kitchen due to a stroke (中风). This left him with a paralyzed arm and leg and severe aphasia.Aphasia does not affect intellect, so some aphasia sufferers liken it to living in a prison within their own brain; their minds work, yet they are unable to express themselves or understand spoken or written language. The condition can prevent them from speaking, reading, writing or comprehending, sometimes a combination of those, sometimes all of them. At least 2 million people in the U. S. have aphasia, commonly as a result of stroke.Describing his condition, Blatt said: “No talking — zip. Speech — zip. One incident. Changed life.” Blatt adapted to his physical disabilities but never fully recovered. Discovering aid networks for people with aphasia were a rarity in the early 1980s, he co-founded the Aphasia Community Group in 1990 with his wife and others. It’s one of the oldest and largest support groups for aphasia patients and their families, offering services like concerts, book groups, health information, and companionship.Mary Borelli, a stroke survivor, described the group as a lifesaver, providing understanding and a sense of belonging. The group helps break the isolation. Jerry Kaplan, a co-founder and Boston University speech-language pathologist, noted that newcomers often express relief at finding others who share their struggles. Thousands have attended since its founding, finding a safe, comfortable space to connect.Blatt focused on regaining function. He moved from a wheelchair to a leg brace, re-camed his driver’s license, and documented cross-country trips. He also pursued sculpting, house restorations, and created a newsletter called The Aphasia Advocate. Within the Group, he was a role model of adaptability and determination.The Aphasia Community Group, which will celebrate its 35th anniversary next year, remains one of Blatt’s enduring legacies. Kaplan emphasized Blatt’s determination, saying “Though given a tough break in midlife, with young children, at the top of his game in his profession, and his communication gifts were largely wiped out, he did not give in to this for 40-plus years. And not only did he survive; he thrived.”8.What is the second paragraph mainly about?A.The consequences of a stroke.B.The huge aphasia sufferers.C.The causes of a stroke.D.The symptoms of aphasia.9.Why did they set up the Aphasia Community Group?A.To provides companionship for lonely people.B.To address the lack of support for aphasia sufferers.C.To work on a medical cure for aphasia.D.To answer the call of MIT.10.According to the members, what is the significance of the Aphasia Community Group?A.It offers them financial assistance.B.It helps them regain their speech completely.C.It creates a caring community for them.D.It conducts extensive research on their conditions.11.Which saying effectively highlights Howard Blatt’s life story?A.Turn lemons into lemonade.B.Let nature take its course.C.As you sow, so shall you reap.D.Nothing ventured, nothing gained.Do you have a brain for math? New research indicates that levels of two key neurotransmitters (脑神经传递素)—— glutamate (谷氨酸) and gamma-aminobutyric acid(GABA) can predict mathematical abilities, suggesting brain chemistry may be playing a role in those who find math easy.The new study, published in the journal PLOS Biology, recruited 255 subjects (实验对象) extending a range of six- year-olds in primary school to university students. The research focused on glutamate and GABA, known to play a role in brain plasticity and learning. Based on prior research, the focus was on two brain regions linked with mathematical abilities—— the left intraparietal sulcus(IPS 顶叶内沟) and the left middle frontal gyrus (MFG 脑额中回).The results were interestingly different. In the youngest subjects high GABA levels and low glutamate levels in the left IPS were consistently associated with high math skills. But in the older university group the exact opposite was seen: low GABA and high glutamate were linked with strong mathematical abilities. Levels of both neurotransmitters in the MFG did not associate with math skills.The group was tested twice over 18 months, allowing the researchers to see if these neurotransmitter levels could predict mathematical ability into the future. And it worked, with neurotransmitter levels effectively predicting one’s success on math tests completed a year and a half later.Another recent study from the same research team looked specifically at GABA levels in MFG of 14 to 18 year-olds. That research indicated MFG GABA levels could effectively predict whether a student was still studying maths or had stopped that subject years prior.Cohen Kadosh, one of the researchers working on the study, says this may indicate math education can help stimulate the development of key brain regions. Further research will work on whether certain learning interventions (干预) can help those children less interested in math so these brain regions still get the developmental workout they need.“ Not every adolescent enjoys maths so we need to investigate possible alternatives, such as training in logic and reasoning that engage the same brain area as maths.” says Cohen Kadosh. 12.What is the new study aimed at?A.Revealing the structure of brain.B.Testing the link between brain regions.C.Exploring mathematical abilities of the subjects.D.Finding the tie between brain chemistry and math.13.What can be learned from paragraph 3 and 4?A.The levels of GABA decide one’s math skills.B.Low MFG glutamate means poor math ability.C.Neurotransmitter levels can predict mathematical ability into the future.D.The levels of Neurotransmitters in the MFG will affect math skills.14.How can math education be improved according to Cohen Kadosh?A.By training key relevant brain areas.B.By tracking slow learners’ early learning.C.By teaching math learners individually.D.By improving the levels of GABA.15.What can be the best title of the text?A.Ways to Promote Math SkillsB.Factors Affecting Math EducationC.Brain Activities Involved in Math StudyD.Neurotransmitters Predicting Math AbilityMore mainstream sources of news such as newspapers, radio and IV aren’t gone yet, but the Internet is growing and entrenching itself as the preferred source. Here are some of the reasons why the Internet is now the best source of news people hive.Online news is faster and more convenient while on the go. Soon after a major story occurs, it takes a few hours for news channels to report it live on cable. 16Social media makes news more relevant. Social media platforms are not just limited to sharing pictures and posting updates about our daily routines. 17 For example, when there is breaking news on the Internet, people can make comments and post their thoughts regarding the event. As a result, they get into a dialogue where different opinions are presented and debated.18 On the other hand, if you get news from cable TV,you have very limited options to discuss.You can get news directly from its source. Many newsmakers are already active on the Internet. Since all these newsmakers have an online presence. People can get news directly from the concerned source, public figures, and newsmakers. 19 . Their social media presence is verified (证实的) and it is easier to trust information coming from them.20 For generation Z, cable TV is limited to sports and movie channels. They don'tsit in front of the TV to watch a news bulletin. There primary source of information is the Internet. This is how they have grown up. It's unlikely they'll move away from digital anytime soon. And since this younger generation is the future, digital or Internet news is too.A.The future is digital.B.Traditional journalism still holds great value.C.That is, news doesn't have to be reported to you.D.This makes everyday news quite relevant for a while.E.The Internet is quick to judge and demand an apology.F.However, people can get news faster through social media.G.More importantly, it is a great way to understand the public’s perspective on certain issues.二、完形填空At just 14 years old, Heman Bekele from Virginia stood out as the winner of the 2023 Young Scientist Challenge. Among the ten finalists he 21 the title of “ America’s Top Young Scientist” with his 22 creation known as the Skin Cancer Treating Soap (SCTS), a bar of soap created for the very first time at a low cost to treat melanoma, the most common kind of skin cancer.Rather than a cure, Bekele’s brilliant idea 23 the development of a soap that aims to help the patient’s cells stay active while fighting melanoma. He always has endless passion for biology and technology, and the Young Scientist Challenge just 24 him with the perfect platform to display his ideas. Reflecting on his 25 , Bekele shared that his childhood experience had played a crucial role in 26 his innovative thinking. “Having witnessed people work tirelessly under the sun, I wanted to raise people’s awareness of 27 related to constant sun exposure.”“I wanted to make my idea accessible to a broad audience.” Bekele remarked during an interview with the media. Bekele also passionately expressed his 28 of turning the soap into a world where skin cancer treatment is within 29 for all.” He was grateful that he had received invaluable 30 from a product engineering specialist, who connected him with other scientists to 31 him to reach his ambitious plans.While similar methods are available for skin cancer treatments, his solution is a more 32 option.

The thinking goes 36 someone living in China around the first century B.C.37 (throw) a piece of bamboo on a fire and it exploded with a bang. Bamboo stalks (节) contain air pockets that can expand and blow up in extreme heat. Chinese travelers would carry bamboo on journeys in case they needed to create 38 loud noise to scare away wild animals.The next major development came around the ninth century, when gunpowder was invented.Chinese producers loaded up bamboo stalks with gunpowder 39 (create) perhaps the world’s first manufactured fireworks, and later began using paper tubes as well. These were employed to ward off evil spirits and celebrate births and weddings. By the 12th century, fireworks were being lit 40 entertainment purposes in China’s imperial court. Around the 14th century, primitive fireworks then made their way to Europe, 41 Italian artists constructed displays like theatrical sets called “machines” and set off fireworks inside them.Fireworks became far 42 (complex) thanks to advances in chemistry. The 19th century saw potassium chlorate (a chemical) 43 (use) to bring out brilliant colors in fireworks, such as red and green, and enhance their44 (bright).Over the years, innovations in technology led to some curious suggestions for 45 fireworks could help solve modern problems. Whalers experimented with rocket-powered harpoons (鱼叉) in the late 1800s, and inventor Gerhard Zucker attempted to use pyrotechnic rockets to deliver mail in the 1930s.Now pyrotechnic amusements have become a global phenomenon and almost the accepted way big events are celebrated.四、书信写作46.假如你是李华,是学校英文报“Advice”栏目的编辑。

We felt there was more to life.”So they quit their jobs, , took their sons, then aged six and nine, out of school and went to southern Spain where they bought a 15-metre yacht(游艇) and headed up the coast to Barcelona. Soracha was not even three. And they brought along Poppy, the family dog. Now, two and a half years and 10,000km later, they don’t intend to stop. Tedd is a yacht engineer and can find work in ports. But, says Phillida, a supply(代数) teacher, “any family could do th is.”The children are home-schooled using a correspondence(函授) course. “My son had a recent project on the weather. The weather is vital to us. My son knows more than most adults about weather systems, compasses, maps and directions. The weather, for him, means life or death.”Other subjects have become equally vivid.“They’re living geography and history all the time. We’ve sailed round Italy, Sardinia, Sicily, and seen tiny islands we didn’t know. The kids learned about ancient Romans by visiting Rome.”But what about social development? Again, Phillida issanguine. “The children have become much more socially confident since we set out. They play with tones of families of allnationalities on other boats we meet.”Living for the moment, they believe, is a h uge life lesson. “Our children never say they’re bored.” The other day they stopped mid-ocean and the kids swam, 110km from land. “That’s the kind of freedom we want for them,” says Phillida. “That’s the kind of freedom they’ve got.”4.The couple quit their jobs and took their children travelling because .A.their children wanted to make friends of all nationalities.B.they wanted to experience more in their life.C.their children wanted complete freedom.D.they are unhappy with their lives.5.The family made a living during their tour from .A.writing their own storiesB.doing temporary jobsC.selling their possessionsD.teaching English6.The underlined word “sanguine” in paragraph 5 is closet in meaning to “”. A.patient B.curiousC.excited D.optimistic7.What we can learn about the family from the text?A.They plan to stop for a rest.B.They have toured for more than three years.C.They believe any family can do the same thing as they do.D.They have made several geographical and historical discoveries.Perhaps you have seen them on the playground, at preschool drop-off or piano lessons, or even in TV shows like Up All Night. They are the stay-at-home dads, and lately, it seems they’re everywhere.The latest research shows that 32 percent of dads regularly care for their children, and among those with preschool-age kids, one in five dads is the primary caregiver. In families where mom works, that figure rises to nearly one in three. Stay-at-home dads have become so common that even toy makers like Mattel are catering to(迎合) them.A recent study finds that today’s full-time fathers aren’t trying to be “Mr. Moms”. Instead,they’re carving out their own unique roles as parents. I spoke with some experiencedstay-at-home dads, who agree d that their parenting styles are different. “I do let the kids take more risks on the playground, while my wife tends to get nervous that they’ll fall and hurt themselves,” says Kyle, 38, an artist.Besides, as there are more and more stay-at-home dads, they are turning to each other for support. They have created Meet Up groups and held Dads Nights Out. Kyle admits he had noticed a change recently. “Several years ago, I was checking out at a store with the kids, and the cashier was very curious why I was buying food instead of my wife. I told her that I was a full-time dad, and she commented, ‘Wow, I have never met one of you before.’ Now, my next-door neighbor is a dad who works from home and we often trades off watching the kids after school. ”As for my own husband, although he admits that being a full-time dad is encouraging, he’s also proud of the strong bond with our daughter, which will offer her benefits that last for years. Children wit caring dads tend to have higher intelligence and more confidence, and do better in school. They also are less likely to experience depression or get into trouble, and have better social skills.8.Why toy makers catering to stay-at-home dads?A.Kids like playing with them.B.They influence the choices their children make.C.They are the money-makers in their families.D.Kids like toys bought by them.9.According to Paragraph 3, stay-at-home dads _______.A.can never replace moms’ love.B.can be as good as moms at parenting.C.try to learn from moms about parenting.D.have different parenting styles from moms.10.What change has Kyle noticed recently?A.The founding of Meet Up groups.B.The change of people’s attitude towards them.C.The increase in the number of stay-at-home dads.D.The development of new communication methods.11.Children with full-time dads are more likely to be ______.A.smart and positive. B.energetic and braveC.sociable and patient. D.confident and careful.Nowadays we all know that it’s best to eat healthily, limiting our intake(摄入) of fat, sugar and salt.

They show you:how much sugar, fat and salt there is in each serving(食物的一分)how many calories one serving containsthe percentages of your guideline daily amounts (GDAs) for each of theseWhat are Guideline Daily Amounts?GDAs are a guide to the total amount of calories, sugar, fat, salt and other elements(成分) we should eat in a day. According to experts, GDAs for a typical adult are:Calories 2000 kcalSugar 90gFat 70gSalt 6gPlease note that children and active adults have different nutritional requirements.

AAn eight-year-old Arthur Gonzaga from Minas Gerais, Brazil has taken the Internet by a storm, as first reported by The Huffington Post, with his online YouTube series videos “Arthur Gourmand”. And while it would not be a far stretch of the i magination to assume an 8-year-old’s cooking show would be filled with dishes like pizza and burgers, Arthur’s show actually features recipes like fruit salad a la créme de passion fruit and filet mignon (菲力牛排).The idea to record Arthur’s cooking advent ures on YouTube was rooted in the young chef’s leukemia diagnosis (白血病诊断) in August Treatment and recovery for the cancer left the young boy in the hospital for the second half of the year and Aruthur was even forced to spend Christmas Eve in the emergency room of So Paulo’s A.C. Camargo Cancer Center. That’s when his family—father Renato Gonzaga and stepmother Priscila Inserra—decided that Arthur should create something positive that would distract him from his health.The videos, which are filmed in the kitchen of a friend of the family, are in Portuguese. They show Arthur walking the viewers through a step-by-step process of the entire recipe—from preparation to cooking. Occasionally, viewers can see Arthur’s father serving as his son’s sous chef, passing ingredients and following his lead.Fluent in Portuguese or not, viewers can immediately notice Arthur’s optimistic and friendly personality. It is perhaps these qualities that have given the young rising Internet star almost 5,000likes on his Facebook Fan Page. There are currently three videos on YouTube and according to his most recent Facebook post, the young boy will be taking suggestions for his next video.Fortunately, according to what Inserra told The Huffington Post, Arthur is responding well to his treatments and is on his path to recovery. “The secret of life is to let it take you, to have fun and to know how to turn lemons into lemonade (柠檬水),” wrote her family, fittingly, on their most recent Facebook post. Hats off to Arthur, who truly serves as a shining example of how to turn lemons into lemonade.21.Arthur Gourmand is a name of .A.the boyB.the boy’s illnessC.a newspaperD.the boy’s cooking show22.Arthur performs his cooking show .A.on the stageB.in his friend’s kitchen.C.in his own kitchenD.in the emergency room23.The underlined phrase “sous chef” probably means .A.a assistant of a chefB.a adviser of a chefC.a companion of a chefD.a friend of a chef24.Which of the following statements is TRUE?A.Arthur has finished all his videos.B.Arthur doesn’t speak Portuguese fluently.C.Arthur had to spend the New Year’s Eve in the hospital.D.Arthur sets a good example to those with serious illness.B“Chances are we have all experienced shyness in our lives, and shyness has been associated with negative outcomes—characteristics like difficulty maintaining eye contact, and feelings of humiliation(丢脸)are known to be part of a shy person’s characters. It’s these traits that tend to affect some shy indivi duals’ ability to connect,” says C. Barr Taylor, a professor of psychology at Stanford University.“But while shyness can often be seen as a bad thing, there are ways to use the personality trait to your advantage,” Taylor says. Below are some common shy habits and how you can learn to make them benefit you:Shy people usually reflect inwardly (在内心) a lot. But according to Taylor, all that thinking may not always be a bad thing and it should be viewed as a way you can think actively as you go into a situation. So, for shy people who feel worried about facing a particular challenge or event, Taylor advises slowly approaching the fearful situation if you start to feel anxious. By facing what you are not feeling secure about, Taylor says, you will feel less anxious. “Our brains are amazing—they can become well adapted,” he says. “If you put yourself in a fearful situation, you will get a sense that you are going to do it.” What’s more, shy individuals care deeply about what others think of them, and if it is addressed healthily, they can use it to their advantage to form social connections.Shy people are observant and often pick up on parts of their conversation or surroundings that others may not. “Just because you are shy, that does not mean you are not used to social situations,” Taylor says. “It can actually become a source of strength as you are the observer in the room.” In a study out of Southern Illinois University at Carbondale, researchers found an association between college-age adults who were shy and the ability to better identify expressions of sadness and fear compared with those who weren’t shy. In addition, a shy person has a born drive to absorb a conversation, so they can be great at conversation.25.In the opinion of C. Barr Taylor, we should .A.think positively of shynessB.try to get rid of shynessC.attempt to be a little shyD.often help those shy people26.The passage mentions the study by Southern Illinois University just to show that .A.shy people use rich facial expressionsB.shy people are good at observing othersC.shyness can be used to reduce anxietyD.shyness can be used in social connections27.We can know from the passage that shy people .A.are good at getting used to a new environmentB.often attach much imp ortance to others’ opinionsC.hate to think a lot before taking an actionD.are good at overcoming their feeling of insecurityC28.Which of the following made the author’s family choose to kill the cat in a painless way?A.The cat had changed its color.B.The vet himself had no way to save its life.C.The family wouldn’t see it suffer in its later life.D.The cat suffered so much that it could die at any time.29.The author cried when seeing pet commercials on television because .A.she was alone at homeB.she thought of her lovely catC.she didn’t like to see the things of the catD.her children showed no feeling over the cat’s death30.What does the underlined phrase mean in Paragraph 1?A.In the color of blue.B.Very sadly.C.All of a sudden.D.With much pain.31.What do we know from the last paragraph of Amy’s letter?A.The longer it is, the less you will feel sad about your pet.B.It is important to find a new pet as soon as possible.C.As time goes on, you will feel more sorrow about your pet.D.One can’t live a happy life without a pet around him.DIf you could leave a farewell (告别)video for your loved ones that they’d see only if you died, would you do it? I think I would.I read about an app (应用程序) that helps people create a video to be published on a social-networking site only after death. Of course you don’t need an app since it’s easy to make your own video with smartphones, laptops and computers. But how many people do you know who would actually go ahead and leave “If I die” footage (镜头)?My father died unexpectedly on Christmas Eve three years ago and I’ve since longed for one more time to talk to him and hear his voice. Imagine if he had left such a video. I would see him again, hear his laughter and benefit from his parting words and advice.I don’t think people, unless they have a terminal illness, go through life thinking they’d better leave a video in case of an untimely death. But it is an opportunity to say all the things you want to say before it’s too late.Still, some say that such a video robs loved ones of their own memories of you. Any special images they have would be superimposed (叠加)by the video image you’ve created. Others think it’s scaring and might be temp ting fate.I expect my video would consist of reminders to my children:Be safe; be mindful of your surroundings; exercise good judgment; speak up; it never hurts to ask; don’t waste time and“call when you get there”. And in addition, I would repeat what I always tell them:I need to know where you are, every-step-of-the-way. That would make them laugh.Readers, would you find comfort in knowing you’ve said your farewells and left something concrete for your loved ones? What messages would you leave for family and friends?32.The writer mentions the app to show .A.the app is out of date nowB.smartphones are better tools to make videosC.it is not convenient to make a video with the appD.how he was inspired to get the idea of creating a video before death33.Some people against such a video argue that the image in the video .A.will be different from that of the real personB.cannot convey the real intention of the deadC.will replace our loved ones’ own memories of usD.will stop the loved ones from missing the dead34.The purpose of mentioning his father’s unexpected death is to .A.show his deep love for his fatherB.show the importance of keeping healthyC.show thanks for the benefits he got from his fatherD.show that it is necessary to leave a farewell video35.The underlined word “untimely” in Paragraph 4 probably means .A.happening at a suitable momentB.happening too soon or sooner than expectedC.continuing to happen or exist without stoppingD.having a value that is not limited to a particular period第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,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。
