When I was younger, I had been a top student with a strong desire to attend a top university. But things started
to go downhill for me in high school after my parents divorced. Torn between wanting to be with my mother, who
moved to Canada alone with no support, and with my beloved aging grandfather in Pakistan, I moved back and
forth, struggling with my studies. I barely graduated from high school and entered an ordinary college, feeling that I
had already failed.
I got discouraged, and began to suffer from severe depression. The death of my grandfather was the final
straw. With no real hope for the future, I dropped out and returned to my mother and sisters in Canada.
Then I was riding with a trucking company to help support my mother and sisters. During those long hours on
the road, my grandfather’s last words came back to me: “Please accept the challenges of life and work harder. It is
now or never. I hope you will never disappoint us.” With his words ringing in my ears, I discovered a newfound
resolve. My path suddenly became clear: I had to finish what I had started and go back to school.
To get back on track, I needed to take a full course load while continuing to work enough part-time hours tohelp pay the bills. After graduating from high school again, I began university engineering cooperation program, in
which I worked as a paid intern (实习生) every other term, allowing me to keep my student loans in check. At the
same time, I tried my best to focus on my studies. After completing my university, I went on to a master’s and now
a PhD, wining several research awards along the way.
My path to this point has made one thing clear: Never fear failure. I hope I have made my grandfather proud.

Our brains have an “auto-correct” feature that we use when re-interpreting (重新解释) ambiguous sounds,
according to new research. The study sheds light on how the brain uses information gathered after the discovering
of an initial sound to aid speech comprehension. The findings point to new ways we use information and context to
aid in speech comprehension.
“What a person thinks they hear does not always match the actual signals that reach the ear,” explains lead
author Laura Gwilliams. “This is because the brain re-evaluates the interpretation of a speech sound at the moment
each following speech sound is heard in order to update interpretations as necessary,” Gwilliams says.
It’s well known that the perception of a speech sound is determined by its surrounding context — in the form
of words, sentences and other speech sounds. This plays out in everyday life — when we talk, the actual speech we
produce is often ambiguous. For example, when a friend says she has a “dent (凹痕)” in her car, you may hear
“tent”. Although this kind of ambiguity happens regularly, we, as listeners, are hardly aware of it. “This is because
the brain automatically resolves the ambiguity for us — it picks an interpretation and that’s what we perceive to
hear,” explains Gwilliams. “The way the brain does this is by using the surrounding context to narrow down the
possibilities of what the speaker may mean.”In the study, the researchers sought to understand how the brain uses this following information to adjust our
perception of what we initially heard. To do this, they conducted a series of experiments in which the subjects
listened to isolated syllables and similarly sounding words. Their results produced three primary findings: The
brain’s primary auditory cortex (听觉皮层) is sensitive to how ambiguous a speech sound is at just 50 milliseconds
after the sound’s appearance. The brain “replays” previous speech sounds while interpreting the following ones,
suggesting re-evaluation as the rest of the word unfolds. The brain makes commitments to its “best guess” of how
to interpret the signal after about half a second.
28．What is the study mainly about?
A．Why people make unclear sounds. B．How brains understand unclear words.
C．How brains tell apart useful information.D．Why some people process information faster.
29．What does the author want to show by giving the example in paragraph 3?
A．It is normal for people to make unclear sounds.
B．People are more likely to mishear their friends.
C．People can understand others even if they mishear a word.
D．People are likely to mistake a word for something familiar.
30．What do we know about the unclear words in the experiments?
A．They seemed to be useless. B．They were noticed instantly.
C．They led to misunderstanding. D．They stopped us thinking further.
31．What does the underlined part “the signal” in the last paragraph refer to?
A．The previous speech sound. B．The similarly sounding word.
C．The unclearly sounding word. D．The following speech sound.

After a relaxing July day at the Jersey Shore in 2021, Jessica Reeder and her two children headed home to
Philadelphia. As they reached Pennsylvania, they were greeted with a yellow- gray sky. It reminded Reeder of what
she often saw in Southern California in her childhood when wildfires were burning.
In North America, most large wildfires occur in the western states and Canada. But smoke generated in the
West doesn’t stay there. It tends to travel east. Within days, it can dirty the air in the Midwest and even East Coast
towns. Today, most asthma(哮喘)-related US deaths and emergency-room visits from wildfire smoke occur in
eastern cities.
The big problem comes from tiny aerosols(气溶胶)- -bits of ash, and other droplets in the air. Scientists referto this mix as particulate matter, or PM.
The smaller the PM is, the longer it can stay in the air. And the longer it floats, the farther it can travel. The
especially worrisome sizes are known as PM2.5. These bits are no more than 2.5 micrometers wide. That’s about
one-thirtieth the width of a human hair. These aerosols are so small that they can be breathed deeply into the lungs.
PM2. 5 has been linked with breathing- related injury and heart disease.
Over the last few decades, US clean-air laws have set limits on emissions (排放) of PM from industrial
sources. That has helped clean the air in many cities. But these rules don’t cover PM from wildfire smoke. Recent
studies have shown that aerosols from wildfires may be more poisonous than industrial sources of these pollutants.
So far, much of the science on how wildfire PM2. 5 can sicken people has focused on people exposed to
smoke near fires in the US West. Now, researchers are turning their attention to how this smoke may be affecting
people as far away as the East Coast. With climate change increasing the intensity and frequency of wildfires,
people across North America need to be more concerned about the health impacts of this smoke.
32．Why does the author tell Jessica Reeder s story?
A．To lead in the topic. B．To praise her performance.
C．To remember a friend. D．To introduce a nice scene.
33．What is the fourth paragraph mainly about?
A．The classification of PM. B．The treatment for asthma.
C．The harm of tiny aerosols. D．The characteristics of PM.
34．What did America do to clean the air in the past?
A．It cut down on PM from wildlife smoke.
B．It reduced industrial emissions by law.
C．It encouraged people to work from home.
D．It stopped wildfire smoke travelling east.
35．Which is the most suitable title for the text?
A．Wildfire Smoke Poses Health Risks in North America
B．Wildfires Are Burning Out of Control in the US
C．Why Do Large Wildfires Occur in the Eastern US?
D．How Do Wildfires Affect the Western US Cities?

Indoor plants might look as if they just sit around not doing much, but in many ways they are the unsungheroes of the home. 36 , but studies have shown that they can promote people’s wellbeing by improving
their mood (心情), reducing stress and helping their memory. What’s more, indoor plants are easy to look after and
are not very expensive.
What are indoor plants?
Indoor plants, also known as houseplants or pot plants, are plants that like to grow indoors. Many of these
species (物种) are not ideally suited to growing outside in the UK, especially in the winter. 37 .
Why are indoor plants good for you?
Will Spoelstra, who works at the Royal Botanic Gardens, says, “ 38 . I find during the winter months,
plants around the house can really lift your mood.” Several studies have backed this up and found that indoor plants
can improve creativity, focus and memory. There is also research showing that pot plants can clean the air around
them by removing harmful gases, such as carbon dioxide. They also remove some harmful chemicals from paints or
cooking. 39 .
Which plants can you grow?
Aloe vera, peace lilies and spider plants are some of the species that are easy to grow indoors. You can buy
plants from supermarkets, garden centres or online. Younger plants are often cheaper than fully grown ones, and
you get to care for them as they mature — which is part of the joy of owning plants. “ 40 ,” Spoelstra says.
“It can bring a new interest and focus into people’s lives and help to make the link between home and nature.”
A．All plants are different
B．Not only do they look beautiful
C．There are many benefits to growing plants indoors
D．Instead, they grow better inside, where it is warmer
E．Plants like peace lilies and devil’s ivy are among the best

It was a very cold Thursday. When I observed the 41 falling onto my car, I really began to wonder if I
was going to 42 it on time. Of course I must, because I have no 43 .
About two weeks ago, what my 44 Ellen had talked about was her Christmas concert to be held in herschool and some rumors about it. “Mom, Rachel was 45 to sing alone, but she’s not! Linda will replace her to
do it.” “Mom, you won’t believe it, 46 Lexie’s whole family is coming to the concert, even from another 47
.” Making a long way out of state to see third graders sing Christmas carols seemed to be a pretty big deal (待遇)
for her.
When I sat in traffic, I thought about all the school 48 I had attended alone. Ellen never mentioned it,
but I wonder 49 she felt about me being the only one who ever came to her events. My own family lived out
of town, and her father and his family 50 quite succeeded in fitting those things into their schedules, I 51
if it bothered her.
At eight o'clock the 52 was scheduled to begin. With only a few minutes to 53 , I found
myself running: first, through the snow-drifted parking lot, then through the school passage. I entered the 54
hall and found a vacant seat near the front. From her place onstage, Ellen saw me 55 for the chair, and she
smiled. I was 56 enough to hear the loud conversation of the children onstage.
“Look, Ellen, there is my uncle and my cousin. They came all the way from West Virginia. I can’t believe my
whole family is here!” Ellen 57 at Lexie and said, “My whole family is here, too! Look, there she is!”
Ellen gave me a big smile. I smiled back at her, never once 58 the melting snow dripping off my head. It
59 occurred to me that while we tried to teach our children all about 60 , they actually taught us what
life was all about.
