Last month, I was sorting through an old box when I came across a time capsule,
in purpleand green floss(丝线). Faded(褪色的) and worn, it was a friendship bracelet (手
链)—animportant part of my teenage summers. Holding it in my hand made me think
about thoseprecious memories of childhood, which my kids will never know firsthand.
My handiwork wasn't beautiful. But what I remember is the beauty of the offering: slipping
something into a friend's hand and knowing it would always be with them. The experience was
intoxicating; physical and concrete, like the serious business of exchanging wedding rings, it was
a symbol of an unbreakable bond. Those bracelets represented how much we meant to each
other, at a time when our friends were becoming the center of our lives.
I slept with my bracelets and showered with them. I wore them all summer long at camp.
And I acquired new bracelets from friends there—-friends who received carefully crafted
bracelets from me in return, as we said our tearful end-of-summer goodbyes. I thought having
them helped ease the pain of leaving my friends. But now I see that they were really helping me
to leave behind childhood.
My kids don't go to summer camp.They certainly don't exchange anything as uncool
asbracelets with their friends. They hang out on Discord (一种聊天软件) in chats that
only pausebut never end. Our eldest son endlessly texts on his cellphone as he and his
friends make one another talking emojis and TikTok videos.
Their relationships with their phones leave no time or space for writing letters or making
bracelets, and their gifts to one another leave no clear and definite traces. There will be no boxes
of letters to sort years from now nor any hidden bracelets to find. They will have little to
physically hold on to.
24. Why does the author associate a bracelet with a time capsule?
B. It reminds her of her childhood.
A. It is faded and worn.
D. It was made by the author herself.
C. It is shaped like a capsule.
25. What does the underlined word "intoxicating" mean in Paragraph 2?
A. Professional. B. Temporary. C. Exciting. D. Strange.
26. Why does the author think her kids’ childhood is different from hers?
A. They make more friends at summer camp.
B. They spend too much time on their cellphones.
C. They are unwilling to give bracelets to parents.
D. They often send hand-made gifts to their friends.
27. What can be inferred about the friendship bracelets?

Parenting techniques may have long lasting consequences for behavior-even when it comes
to dogs.
Researchers at the University of Pennsylvania studied the early development, parenting and
the following performance of 98 puppies who underwent guide dog training. Dogs who received
more independence and less support from their mothers were more likely to be successful in
becoming a guide dog. The study was published Monday in the journal Proceedings of the
National Academy of Sciences.
Mom-pup interactions were used to define how highly involved the puppy's mothers were.
Puppies raised with highly involved mothers were more likely to be released-or dropped out from
the guide dog program- compared to those with less attentive mothers.
“Too much of a good thing can be a bad thing,"said lead study researcher Emily
Bray.Although the study couldn't definitely point to what was driving this effect,"one
possibility isthat the dogs that are having overbearing (专横的) mothers are never given
the chance to deal with small challenges on their own, and is harmful to their later behavior and
outcome in their problem solving. Another possibility is that the puppies for whom the mothers
are always around are also the most anxious or stressed," she explained.
“What I was happy about was that there is a study being done about early life experiences in
dogs," another researcher Dolores Holle said. "If the mom is trying to protect her pups
againstsmall challenges, then they will not be suited for the big challenges."
The study included three breeds(品种): German shepherds, Labrador retrievers and
Goldenretrievers. The puppies were followed from the first weeks of life for several
years. Interestingly, Labrador retrievers tended to wash out from the program, while Golden
retrievers tended to succeed.
As for whether the findings can be applied to human babies of so-called "helicopter
parents," Bray was hesitant.
“I think people can draw parallels (相似之处), but I think you also have to be
carefulbecause they are different species,"she said.
She added, "The nice thing about dogs is that they are a lot less complicated than
humans."28. What makes successful guide dogs according to the study?
A. Less attentive owners.
B. More practical training.
C. Less supportive mothers.
D. More tense environment.
29. What does Paragraph 4 mainly talk about?
A. The necessity of mom-pup interactions.
B. Some characteristics of good guide dogs.
C. The significance of high parental involvement.
D. Potential causes of some puppies' poor performance.
30. What can we know about Labrador retrievers in the study?

The "little voice in your head”" can be your worst critic and greatest supporter. It's been
known to help with directions, give advice, and even remind you to put potatoes on the grocery
list.
But does everyone have an inner monologue(独白)? For a long time, it was
assumed that aninner voice was simply part of being human. But it turns out,that's not
the case-not everyoneprocesses life in words and sentences.
"By inner monologue, we mean that we can have private speech that's addressed to
ourselves and that is carried out without any sound," said Helene Levenbruck, a senior
neurolinguistics researcher at CNRS.
With true inner speech, you almost"hear" your inner voice, she told Live
Science.You'reaware of its tone and intonation (语调). For example, the voice can
"sound" angry or worried.
This long-held assumption was first challenged in the late 1990s by Russell Hurlburt, a
psychologist at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas. Hurlburt studied participants’ inner speech
by asking them to wear a beeper (传呼机). Whenever the device beeped, they had to
write downwhat they were thinking or experiencing in their mind just before the sound.
Perhaps the participant wrote down, "I need to buy some bread." He would then
ask if that'swhat they actually thought."Or did you think‘bread'? Or were you hungry?"
Lcevenbruckexplained. After several meetings, participants got better at articulating(流利连
贯地表达) theirtrue thoughts, she said. Eventually, this method revealed that some
people had inner speech everytime the device beeped. But others had less inner speech
than usual, and some didn't have innerspeech at all. They experienced images, sensations
and emotions, but not a voice or words.
The lack of an inner monologue has been linked to a condition called
aphantasia( 心 盲 症 )— sometimes called“ blindness of the mind's eye."People who
experience aphantasia can'tmentally picture their bedroom or their mother's face. Many
times, those who don't experience visualizations don't experience clear inner speech, either,
Lcevenbruck noted.
32. What was previously assumed about the inner monologue?
A. It rarely existed in humans.
B. It could help solve all kinds of problems.
C. It was something everyone was born with.
D. It was mainly displayed in the form of writing.
33. What does Loevenbruck say about an inner monologue?
高三英语 第6页 共11页
学科网(北京)股份有限公司A. It lacks tone and intonation.
B. It is delivered in public.
C. It can be heard by others.
D. It can convey emotions.
34. What did Hurlburt do in his study?
A. He used a beeper to note down participants' inner speech.
B. He required participants to describe their grocery lists.
C. He checked participants’ notes and asked about their true thoughts.
D. He placed something in participants' heads to record their inner speech.
35. Why do some people never experience an inner monologue?
A. They suffer serious brain damage.
B. They cannot distinguish what they see.
C. They misunderstand their true thoughts.
D. They fail to mentally picture what they see.

we are all social emotional beings andthroughout our lives,we will continue to shape
ourbehaviors and relationships. However, for lifelong well-being, the development of social
emotional skills should be shaped wisely as a child opens its eyes to the world. Here are
somestrategic actions that will help you guide your child in improving their social emotional
learning skills.
36 If they are crying, tell them “you look sad” or “it looks like you are mad right now."
This way you can reflect their emotions to them with words and help them understand
andexpress their emotions too.
Approve your children's feelings. Instead of saying "Stop shouting and calm down, it's not a
big deal" try to say "I know you are really angry right now but we can talk about it.” 37
Give your kid some space and let them experience uncomfortable feelings. Everyone feels
alone or bored sometimes. 38 This will help them tolerate disturbing feelings andsituations
going forward.
Accept emotions & correct behaviors. It's okay to feel angry sometimes. Eventually, we
need to feel that anger in some specific situations. 39 Teach your children that the feeling is
normal, but they shouldn't be screaming loudly in a public area just because they are feeling an
emotion as this may make other people uncomfortable.
Support other cognitive skills. 40 Scientific educational brain games
appsdeveloped by academicians like those at MentalUP are reliable and beneficial sources
to improvecognitive(认知的) skills.

emotional skills differently. Trying to find wavs that suit your kids’ needs. interests and according

The development of this city, which is carefully designed 64 (protect) the past while

I had never noticed her. She was not the kind of girl who could draw attention. She was not
tall and just plain. In class, she liked sitting at the back, reading or taking notes. It was once I
asked her to read aloud the text that I looked at her with new eyes when I heard her standard
American pronunciation. Later on, the National College English Speech Contest would be held. I
thought it over and filled in her name with a smile. I red-penciled her draft of speech, corrected
her pronunciation, and even adjusted her body language.
However, I was always kind of worried because she was too introvert (内向的) and
too quiet.Could she seize this rare opportunity?
On the night of the contest, I told her to take it easy. Blushed (脸红的), she
looked at me andsaid nothing.

draw lots(抽签).As a result,what she drew was No. 9 while No.8 was recognized English
master-hand (高手).
Sure enough, the English master-hand was fairly successful in the speech with his humor and
highly personal style. The whole audience would make a warm applause almost every 30 seconds
until she appeared on the stage, still talking over his speech with excitement.
My palms began to sweat. I sat there, with no courage to look at her. It was the first time
that she went up the stage, so I couldn't blame her for any slips. But at that moment, I found I
was so scared of her failure.
The strong spotlight made her so small and so insignificant that nobody seemed to notice
she had been on the stage, I said to myself, no hope.
But the moment that shocked me occurred. I clearly heard a voice, a very loud voice, "Now,
please focus on me." She said this sentence three times in al1. louder and louder.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150词左右;

After her speech ended for a long while, a thunderous applause sounded in the whole
