高三英语 第 3 页 共 11 页My uncle George, a mentally disabled man, enjoys a simple life—no
smartphones, no Internet —so communication is limited to in person or old-style phone
calls.
I have always shared a special bond with him. For years, George would
periodically ask for my cellphone number and write it down. He'd call a bunch of times
and then suddenly stop, because he had lost the piece of paper with my number on it. This
went on for years, until at some point, around six years ago, he committed my number to
memory. Ever since then, from 7 am to 7 pm, he calls me once a day, without fail,
365 days a year.
Our phone calls always follow the same structure, using one of three fantasy
realities from George's imagination. In one, he's my dad and I'm his son. In another, he's
Major Charles Winchester, and I'm Captain B.J.Hunnicutt, reporting for duty. In the
last, we're both lifeguards, performing the rescue of a drowning person. We go back
and forth in character for about a minute and a half, only breaking the bit to laugh wildly.
Then he'll go quiet.
"You know something, Tommy," he'll say. "I'm just calling to say you're the best
guy I know."
"So are you," I reply. We both laugh. Then, he'll ask what I'm eating for dinner
and wrap up telling me he'll call back at a specific time.
This conversation has been repeated for years. No matter what's going on in the
world, these calls are something I can count on. In my darkest moments—painful
breakups, professional setbacks —that phone call rolls in, allowing me to escape reality
for a bit and just laugh and act like a kid again. Though he can't understand my adult life
or daily struggles, his love remains unshakable. This love is an incredible gift. Whenever
I'm struggling for life, I know George will call, telling me I'm the best guy through his
phone calls.
24. What can we know about George?
A. He is a life guide just like me.
B. He tries to keep in touch with me.
C. He is a physically disabled man.
D. He wants an advanced smartphone.
25. Why does the author value George's calls?
A. They provide practical advice.
B. They help improve his acting skills.
C. They keep him updated on family news.
D. They offer consistent emotional support.
26. What does the underlined phrase "wrap up"mean in Paragraph 5?
A. End up. B. Pick up.
C. Show up. D. Bring up.
27. What does the passage intend to tell us?
A. Role-play bonds family.
B. Family love is unshakable.
C. Calls make a difference.
高三英语 第 4 页 共 11 页D. Disabled people brave all.

A free online platform that allows speakers to practice in front of thousands of
virtual audience has been released to help many people deal with their anxiety when
making a speech. Dr Chris Macdonald, who created the online platform, said the
approach was an attempt to reduce the lengthy waits or high costs people often face when
seeking help.
The Virtual Reality Public Speaking platform is based on the idea that facing fears
directly can help reduce them. It is combined with breathing exercises and eye movements
that help slow the heart rate and control the fear response. People using the technology can
practice speaking in various virtual reality (VR) settings, from an empty classroom or
small audience of virtual figures who feel bored and sleepy, to a stadium of 10,000
viewers, with the option to add distractions such as flashing cameras and loud noises.
A recent study suggests the platform could be beneficial. The research involved 29
volunteers from China, who each finished a 30-minute session in which they switched
between using the VR system and practicing a simple breathing exercise. After that, they
delivered a prepared one-minute speech in English to 34 people in real life. The
percentage of students who said they were anxious public speakers fell from 65% before
the experiment to 20% after the presentations, while the percentage who described
themselves as confident rose from 31% to 79%. More students said they enjoyed public
speaking after using the platform.
But Cella, a psychologist and leader of the virtual reality lab at King's College
London, who was not involved in the work, said there was a potential risk that
overdependence on the platform could increase people's avoidance of public speaking.
"There is a lot of enthusiasm and problem-solving energy from digital innovators to
address mental health challenges in our society. But unfortunately, many products
like this platform have poor uptake (利用) and short lifespan due to the rapid
development and limited evidence," he said. "As with any emerging technology, it's
crucial to evaluate its real-world impact, how people use it, whether it truly improves
confidence and reduces anxiety, and what unintended effects might arise."
28. Who may find this platform useful?
A. A graduate preparing for a job interview.
B. A delivery driver taking a road safety test.
C. A coach planning athletes' training workouts.
D. A programmer giving instructions to a computer.
29. What's the main purpose of Paragraph 2?
A. To offer advice on using VR.
B. To explain the reason for exercise.
C. To describe how the platform works.
D. To show how to overcome speech anxiety.
30. What can we learn from the research?
A. The number of users rose dramatically.
B. The platform improved users' English ability.
C. The users practiced breathing exercise every day.
D. The platform contributed to users' presentation.
31. What's Cella's attitude to the platform?
A. Concerned. B. Objective. C. Unclear. D. Supportive.

You probably know the feeling of having a hearty meal at a restaurant, full and
satisfied, but only take a look at the dessert menu and you decide the cheesecake
looks just irresistible. Why do you somehow make an exception for a sweet treat, since
you are too full to have another bite? Thanks to a recent study, scientists now have a
better understanding of the origins of this urge.
Working with mice, researchers tried to set up a situation similar to the
human experience described above. They started by offering a standard diet to mice
who hadn't eaten since the previous day. That "meal" period lasted for 90 minutes,
and the mice ate until they couldn't eat any more. Then it was time for a 30-
minute "dessert" period. In the first round of the experiment, researchers offered
mice extra regular food for dessert, and the mice ate just a little bit more. In the second
round, during the "dessert" period, they offered a high-sugar feed to the mice for 30
minutes. The mice really went for the sugary feed, consuming six times more calories
than in the first round.
In the mice, researchers monitored the activity of neurons(神经元) that are
associated with feelings of fullness. They found that when the mice were eating the
high sugar diet, the neurons released a chemical which was related to pleasure sensors in
their brain and caused a feeling of reward, making the mice keep eating. When the
team blocked the release of the chemical, the mice stayed away from the sugar. The
researchers found the same went for humans when scanning the brains of volunteers,
who were fed sugar drinks. This led the scientists to conclude that the neuron action in the
human brain drives the consumption of high-sugar foods.
Researchers say the follow-up studies on this neural reward system could throw
light on how sugar overconsumption may contribute to the development of obesity.
32. Why did the researchers carry out the study?
A. To test new diets for mice.
B. To improve dessert quality.
C. To help people eat healthily.
D. To explain the urge for sweets.
33. What does Paragraph 2 tell us about the research?
A. The basis. B. The result.
C. The process. D. The subject.
34. What may lead to humans' sugar overconsumption?
A. The feeling of being full.
B. The release of a chemical.
C. The blocking of certain neurons.
D. The presence of pleasure sensors.
35. What is the best title for this passage?
A. What Makes Mice Prefer Sugar
B. Why There's Always Room for Sugar
C. How We Resist the Temptation of Sugar

Most of us have been there: Families can be very difficult; family problems
are very painful. 3 6 There are ways to solve family problems and restore
relationships.
Call a family council.
Appealing to the family together to solve the problem helps you gather collective
intelligence to find a sensible solution. 37 For instance, perhaps the problem
involves a job loss, disability or money problems.
Avoid blaming each other.
38 Don't use language that puts criticism on family members or
that feels negative. Keep your words positive and respectful when you talk to them, while
avoiding judgments or name calling of the family member.
Write to the family member.
A heartfelt letter can go a long way because it invites you both into an exchange,
where you should express yourselves fully—describing your feelings and why you want to
address the issue.
39 Explain how the problem is affecting you, but also detail how you'd
like the problem to be resolved and why.
40
Try to think out a solution that both sides can feel okay about, even if neither gets
exactly what he or she wants. One technique is for both to draw two circles, one of which
contains everything you're reluctant to give in on. Write down the areas where you are
willing to bend in the other one.
A. Try to reach an agreement.
B. Think twice before jumping in.
C. Your solution itself makes sense.
D. Use "I" more than "you" while writing.
E. Get rid of the need to win the argument.
F. How you deal with them makes a big difference.
G. The method works if the problem affects the entire family.

her now, Durkin would 5 3 her for believing her when no one else would.

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的
短文。
Paco was my soul dog. We had been through a lot. Five years ago, he came with
me to look after my granddaughter, Mia. Paco was sweet, affectionate and perfectly
behaved, particularly with Mia.
Then, Paco got seriously sick. I had to put him to sleep, yet my feelings did not
die with him. I missed him so much that it became unbearable. Therefore, I hid Paco's
collar (项圈), empty bed, and stuffed fox—his favorite toy—under my bed. "No more
dogs," I thought. I couldn't bear that kind of loss again.
A week after Paco died, Mia talked me into going to the shelter to look for a new
pet. "A cat," I reminded Mia on the road.
"There aren't any cats available right now," the lady at the desk told us. Mia was
disappointed. Suddenly, we heard "Click, click, click". Turning to see where the
noise was coming from, we found a big black dog. He was old and fat. But that didn't
stop him from dancing on his legs, his toenails tapping the glass in front of him. "Pick
me", he seemed to be saying. "Pick me".
高三英语 第 9 页 共 11 页"Can we take him home, please?" Mia said. "I will walk him and feed him. "
The dog wagged his tail, a hopeful smile on his face. I still didn't want a dog, especially
not this old, overweight dog. But I couldn't refuse my granddaughter. "I guess I don't
mind having him," I said. "But remember, he's your dog. I'm not going to take care of
him. You are." "I will!" Mia promised. She named him Eddie.
Eddie was thrilled when he arrived home. He dashed around as if to say,"I'm
home! I'm home!" Even I couldn't help smiling. But I had no intention of getting attached.
Eddie had other ideas. Every time I turned around, he was at my side. He found Paco's
stuffed fox and tried to play it with me. He snuggled (依偎) beside me on the sofa
whenever I sat down and looked at me fondly with a familiar smile on his face. Still, in
my heart he was not Paco.
注 意 ：
1. 续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡 相应位置作答。
Eddie didn't mind that I didn't return his love._______________________________
Soon, it was hard for me to imagine a life without
Eddie._______________________
