Christmas time with kids is filled with warm traditions: Listening to Christmas music while
decorating the tree, going to look at Christmas lights with hot chocolate in hand, and taking the
kids to visit Santa Claus. Well, delete that last one. At least for my family.
Parents think about how fun it will be at first to take their kids to see Santa, or tell them
gifts are on their way from Santa, but this comes with a series of annoying questions about Mr.
Claus like how he makes it to all the houses in one night, as well as the broken trust after revealing
the truth. I didn’t want that.
You may think that our Christmases were rigid, stuffy, and without any warmth or magic. I
don’t think so. Part of that is due to what I taught my kids about Christmas. Instead of telling them
Santa is real, I told them it most likely has its origins in St. Nicholas, a man who was kind and
generous to children in need. Netflix’s 2021 movie “A Boy Called Christmas” is a useful tool for
helping kids connect Christmas myths and traditions with reality while keeping the spirit of
generosity alive.
The month of December is filled with movie and game nights, plays and concerts. These
family traditions have added flavor to my kids’ entire childhood. Hopefully, they know now that
it’s the time with family, doing special things together, that creates the magic and that my love for
them goes well beyond just one day — and that magic, wonder and awe can happen any time with
family, especially if we remain generous and grateful.
My kids are older now, and they’re glad they didn’t believe the myth of Santa. It was one
fewer bad memory for them, one fewer blow to their innocent childhood.
24．What is special for the author’s family’s Christmas time?
A．Appreciating Christmas lights.
B．skipping visiting Santa Claus.
C．Unlocking secrets of Santa Claus.
D．Helping Santa Claus deliver gifts.
25．What does the author want to convey to her kids in paragraph3?
A．Generosity comes from reality.
B．Warmth counts to Christmas.
C．St. Nicholas is an unsung hero.
D．Santa myth will break kids’ trust.
26．What does the author intend to show by mentioning “the magic of Christmas”?
A．To prove that the Santa myth is not necessary for Christmas.
B．To explain why family entertainments are popular in December.
C．To show that Christmas is the most magical festival for families.
D．To stress that shared family time is the core of Christmas’ charm.
27．Which of the following can best describe the author?
A．Rigid but caring.
B．Generous and devoted.
C．Distant but unconventional.
D．Thoughtful and insightful.
C
（原创题）Scientists may have found a new way to diagnose and treat major depression
early, offering hope for better recovery. Researchers from the University of Queensland and the
University of Minnesota studied levels of adenosine triphosphate ( 腺苷三磷酸，ATP), the
molecule that provides energy to cells, in the brains and blood of young people with depression.
Dr. Susannah Tye, a lead researcher, explained that this is the first time such patterns have
been seen in both the brain and blood of patients with major depressive disorder (MDD). This
suggests that symptoms like extreme tiredness might come from basic changes in how cells use
energy. Fatigue is a common but difficult symptom to treat, and patients often wait years for the
right help. This discovery could lead to earlier and more targeted treatments.
The study involved 18 young adults with MDD. Scientists compared their brain scans and
blood samples with those of healthy individuals. They found something unexpected: cells in
depressed patients produced high energy levels while resting but failed to increase production
when stressed. Dr. Roger Varela noted that cells might be working too hard early in the illness,
leading to future problems. This was surprising because many expected energy production to be
lower in depressed people.
These findings show that mitochondria, the powerhouses of cells, struggle to meet higher
energy demands in early depression. This inability may cause low mood, lack of motivation, and
slower thinking. The research also highlights that depression affects the whole body, not just the
mind. It proves that every patient is different biologically, which explains why treatments work
differently for everyone.
This breakthrough could change how society views depression, reducing shame and
encouraging scientific treatment. By understanding the cellular roots of the illness, doctors may
develop specific therapies to restore energy balance. The study, published inTranslational
Psychiatry, offers a promising path toward improving lives through science.
28. What did the researchers discover about the cells of depressed patients?
A. They produced less energy even when resting.
B. They failed to raise energy levels under stress.
C. They worked normally during high-demand tasks.
D. They showed no difference from healthy cells.
29. Why is the finding about cell energy considered surprising?
A. It contradicts the common belief about low energy.
B. It proves depression is only a mental problem.
C. It shows cells rest too much in depressed people.
D. It suggests fatigue is not a real symptom of MDD.
30. What can be inferred about the future treatment of depression?
A. It will rely entirely on traditional talk therapy.
B. It may become more personalized based on biology.
C. It will focus only on improving sleep patterns.
D. It is unlikely to change in the near future.
31. How might this research affect public opinion on depression?
A. By proving it is caused by personal weakness.
B. By showing it has physical bases in the body.
C. By suggesting it cannot be treated scientifically.
D. By claiming it affects only older adults.
D
（原创题）You might appear healthy, but hidden fat inside your body could be silently
harming your heart. A recent study by scientists at McMaster University reveals that fat stored
deep within the abdomen and liver can damage arteries, even in people who look fit on the
outside. This research challenges the traditional use of Body Mass Index (BMI) as the main
measure of obesity and heart risk, suggesting that unseen fat is just as dangerous as visible weight.
Visceral fat, which surrounds internal organs, and hepatic fat, stored in the liver, have long
been linked to diseases like diabetes and high blood pressure. However, their direct effect on
artery health was unclear until now. Using advanced MRI scans on over 33,000 adults from
Canada and the UK, researchers found that higher levels of these hidden fats were closely
connected to the thickening and clogging of carotid arteries in the neck. These arteries supply
blood to the brain, and when they narrow, the risk of stroke and heart attack increases
significantly.
The study emphasizes that this danger exists even without other common risk factors. Russell
de Souza, a lead author, noted that visceral and liver fat contribute to artery damage regardless of
cholesterol levels or blood pressure. The findings serve as a wake-up call for both doctors and the
public to focus on hidden fat rather than just visible weight. The analysis showed that while
visceral fat had a strong link to plaque buildup, liver fat also played a notable role, independent of
lifestyle habits like diet and exercise.
Consequently, experts argue that we must rethink how obesity is measured. Relying solely on
BMI or waist size may miss critical health risks. Imaging tests that reveal internal fat distribution
could provide a more accurate picture of cardiovascular health. For middle-aged individuals,
having a normal weight does not guarantee a healthy heart, as hidden fat can increase disease risk
without obvious physical signs.
As Sonia Anand, a vascular medicine specialist involved in the study, explained, you cannot
tell by looking at someone whether they carry this dangerous fat. It is metabolically active,
causing inflammation and artery damage even in those who are not visibly overweight. Therefore,
assessing obesity and heart risk requires new methods that go beyond appearance, ensuring that
silent threats are detected before they cause serious harm.
32. What does the new study suggest about BMI?
A. It is the most accurate way to measure heart risk.
B. It fails to reflect the danger of hidden internal fat.
C. It should be replaced by waist measurements entirely.
D. It is only useful for people who are visibly overweight.
33. How did the researchers mainly obtain their findings?
A. By interviewing doctors about patient lifestyles.
B. By analyzing data from advanced medical imaging.
C. By conducting experiments on animals in laboratories.
D. By tracking the diet habits of volunteers for years.
34. What can be inferred about people with normal weight?
A. They are completely free from heart disease risks.
B. They definitely have less visceral fat than others.
C. They may still suffer from artery damage silently.
D. They do not need to worry about their liver health.
35. Why do experts call for rethinking obesity assessment?
A. Because current methods ignore metabolically active fat.
B. Because imaging tests are too expensive for most people.
C. Because waist size is no longer related to health issues.
D. Because only visible weight causes inflammation today.

Finding the right balance between screen time and other enriching activities can be difficult,
especially with the appeal of interactive stories. The key is to think of these stories as a way to stir
up new interests. Here are some tips for balancing screen time with interactive story learning.
Setting Clear Boundaries
Just like with any other activity, setting clear boundaries around screen time is essential. A
predictable routine can help your child understand expectations and avoid power struggles.
Consider setting specific times for interactive story sessions, and stick to them. 36
37
Not all screen time is created equal. Look for interactive stories that are age-appropriate,
educational, and engaging. They can offer a library of personalized stories that are designed to
improve literacy skills and spark imagination.
Making It a Shared Experience
Interactive stories can be a wonderful way to connect with your child. Instead of simply
handing them a device, sit down together and read the story aloud. 38 Ask open-ended
questions to encourage critical thinking.
Extending the Learning Offline
The real magic happens when you extend the learning offline. After reading an interactive
story about animals, visit the zoo or a local farm. After reading a story about space, visit a
planetarium (天文馆) or build a rocket ship together. 39
Modeling Healthy Habits
40 Be mindful of your own screen time habits and model the behavior you want to
see in your child. When you prioritize time for reading and connecting with others, you send a
powerful message that these activities are important.
A．Embracing New Activities
B．Choosing Quality Content
C．You can connect the digital world to the real one.
D．Talk about the characters, the plot, and the themes.
E．Parenting isn’t about perfection, it’s about progress.
F．Children learn by watching the adults in their lives.
G．Visual timers can be a helpful tool for younger children.

softened with acceptance.
From then on, I began giving them a little more time to 50 if we had to go
somewhere. And when they 51 to admire something on the way, I would 52

“Another A+, and I’ll get you that new game you’ve been wanting,” my mom said with a
smile. It was just the motivation I needed. I was usually a pretty good student, but with that extra
push, I was determined to do well on my next math test. Every evening, I buried myself in my
notes, practicing problems. My confidence grew with every completed practice test.
When the big day arrived, I felt ready. I took a deep breath as I entered the classroom and
tried to keep calm. But despite all the preparation, my nerves got the better of me. Halfway
through the test, I blanked on a formula, and time was running out. I scribbled down the best
answers I could and handed in my paper, hoping for the best.
A week later, I got the test back. My heart sank as I saw the big red “A-” at the top. “No
game,” I thought miserably. It wasn’t a bad grade, but it wasn’t enough. Disappointed, I stared at
the grade, wishing it could magically turn into an “A+”. I could almost hear my mom’s voice, full
of pride, congratulating me on my hard work. The idea gnawed (啃咬) at me until I did something
I never thought I’d do. I changed the “-” into a “+”.
The moment I got home, I handed the test to my mom with a forced smile. She looked at it
and congratulated me, hugging me proudly. Then she turned to walk toward her bedroom. My
heart raced-part excitement, part a sharp twist of guilt I couldn’t ignore. A moment later, she
emerged holding a black box, the logo of the game I’d begged for glinting in the lamplight. “I
picked it up yesterday, just knowing my hardworking kid would pull through,” she said, pressing
the box into my hands. I forced a thank-you, my voice tight.
