On a recent weekday, I sent an Instagram message to a friend of mine, an art adviser named
Stephen Truax, to chat about an exhibition. Instead of messaging me back in the app, he texted me
to say that he’d blocked Instagram on his smartphone during daytime working hours.
Impressed, I asked him how he was accomplishing such an achievement. Truax said he was
using Opal, an app that makes your smartphone more like a so-called dumbphone ( 功能机). He
said that several of his friends swore by the app, and so he had begun using it, too. I took this word
of mouth as evidence that it might actually work. I downloaded it without any particular optimism,
considering my phone addiction an incurable case.
Opal provides something like gentle parenting for your smartphone habits: you set up a
daily schedule of which apps to block, and then the app guides you into sticking with it. As the
app suggested, I set up a “Work Time” block from 9 A ．M. to 5 P.M. and selected every social
app I ever use. At the scheduled time, those apps go gray on my home screen and remain that way
all day.
Every time I’m frustrated that I can’t look at Instagram on my phone, I just think, surely I, a
human adult, can wait a few more hours to see my friends’ dog photos — 5 P.M. isn’t that far
away. Crucially, Opal also allows users to suspend the block for short periods of time without
feeling like failures; when the scheduled break time elapses, the blockage automatically
continues.
I find comfort in the fact that my mind feels clearer after a full workday without scrolling
social media, and an added bonus is that once the block ends I can go through all the good posts
that I missed. As Truax told me, “The flood of content that happens after dinner is wild.” The
addiction is not cured, perhaps, but at least it’s finally managed.
24．What did Truax do after receiving the message from the author?
A．He texted back.
B．He replied in Opal.
C．He blocked Instagram.
D．He chatted about the exhibition.
25．How did the author feel when downloading Opal?
A．Disappointed. B．Helpful.
C．Pessimistic. D．Impressed.
26．What does the underlined word “elapses” in paragraph 4 mean?
A．Starts.
B．Passes.
C．Separates.
D．Approaches.
27．What can we learn from the text?
A．Surfing the web makes the mind clearer.
B．Practising self-control deepens enjoyment.
C．It’s best to surf the latest news after supper.
D．It is impossible to ease phone addiction.

（原创题）Sleep plays a vital role in human health, helping to clear brain toxins (毒素) and
strengthen connections for better memory and learning. During adolescence (青春期), a critical
period for brain development, experts recommend eight to ten hours of sleep daily. However,
many young people fail to get enough rest. Recently, researchers conducted a study to explore
how different sleep habits specifically influence cognitive (认知的) performance in teenagers.
To ensure accuracy, the team relied on objective data rather than self-reported questionnaires.
They analyzed information from the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development Study, a long-term
project tracking over 3,200 U.S. adolescents aged 11 to 12. By using devices like Fitbits, they
accurately measured sleep patterns and compared these against detailed brain scans and cognitive
test results.
The researchers divided the participants into three groups based on their sleeping habits.
Although none of the groups reached the recommended amount of sleep, clear differences
emerged. The group with the earliest bedtimes and longest sleep duration performed best in
cognitive tasks involving vocabulary, reading, and problem-solving. Interestingly, while this group
outperformed others in brain function, there were no significant differences in school grades
among the groups.
Furthermore, brain scans revealed that the teenagers who slept longer had greater brain
volume and superior brain functions compared to those with the shortest sleep. The study also
found that the longer sleepers had lower heart rates during sleep, a sign of better health and higher
sleep quality.
Researchers emphasized that even small differences in sleep length can significantly affect
brain structure and activity. Because these sleep patterns tend to last over time, experts are now
investigating why some teenagers stay up late. They aim to determine if external factors like
smartphones or internal biological clocks are responsible for these sleep habits.
28.How did sleep patterns affect school grades in the study?
A. They had a significant positive impact on grades.
B. They caused huge differences between the groups.
C. No obvious connection was found among the groups.
D. They influenced grades more than cognitive tasks.
29.What does the author imply about self-reported data?
A. They are unnecessary for adolescent research.
B. They may be less accurate than objective data.
C. They are more popular than using devices.
D. They proved to be wrong in previous studies.
30.What does a lower heart rate during sleep suggest?
A. A sign of better health and sleep quality. B. A result of shorter sleeping duration.
C. An indication of smaller brain volume. D. A lack of physical activity during the day.
31.What will researchers likely focus on next?
A. Developing drugs to cure sleeplessness.
B. Determining the reasons for late bedtimes.
C. Comparing the sleep habits of different ages.
D. Teaching parents how to improve kids' grades.

（原创题）Obesity remains a major global health issue, and weight loss is often encouraged
to reduce risks. However, growing research suggests that the benefits of weight loss may change
with age. Specifically, losing weight during midlife may bring surprising and hidden costs to brain
health that are not typically seen in younger individuals.
In a new study from Ben-Gurion University, scientists observed young and mid-aged obese
mice. Both groups experienced diet-induced obesity followed by weight loss. The results showed
that the weight loss successfully restored healthy blood glucose control in both groups. This
proves that significant metabolic improvements can happen at any age. However, researchers
found a key and unexpected difference. In mid-aged mice, weight loss led to increased
inflammation in the hypothalamus (下丘脑) — a part of the brain that controls appetite and energy
use.
Scientists detected this inflammation at a molecular level by examining the brain’s immune
cells. The inflammatory response lasted for several weeks before gradually fading. While the long-
term effects remain unclear, constant or poorly regulated brain inflammation is linked to memory
problems and neurodegenerative (神经退行性的) diseases like Alzheimer’s. Consequently, the
study raises important questions about how the process of losing weight in midlife affects the
brain.
Researchers suggest a more nuanced view of midlife weight loss. "Midlife weight loss is not
a simple copy-paste of young adulthood," explains Alon Zemer, the lead author. "Weight loss is
essential for restoring metabolic health, but we must understand its impact and ensure the health of
the mid-age brain is not harmed." Another researcher, Alexandra Tsitrina, added that advanced
imaging helps detect sensitive changes that may have health consequences.
The research team emphasizes the need for additional studies to better understand why this
concerning brain inflammation happens. Future work should focus on finding ways to keep the
metabolic benefits of weight loss while protecting the aging human brain from potential risks.
32.What common benefit was observed in both young and mid-aged mice?
A. Reduced brain inflammation. B. Restored blood glucose control.
C. Increased appetite for food. D. Improved long-term memory.
33.What can be inferred about the inflammation in the hypothalamus?
A. It helps to control the use of energy. B. It may lead to negative brain conditions.
C. It disappears immediately after weight loss. D. It is necessary for metabolic health.
34.What is Alon Zemer’s attitude towards weight loss in midlife?
A. Supportive but cautious. B. Totally negative.
C. Unconcerned and casual. D. Doubtful and hesitant.
35.What is the main goal of future research suggested in the text?
A. To copy the results from young mice. B. To prove that dieting is harmful.
C. To protect the brain during weight loss. D. To cure Alzheimer’s disease completely.

The Digital Doctor: A Double-Edged Sword
In our increasingly connected world, the way we manage our health is transforming. Faced
with minor illnesses like a persistent cough or headache, many of us now instinctively reach for
our smartphones rather than the phone to book a doctor’s appointment. 36 This
immediate access to a vast encyclopedia ( 百科全书) of medical knowledge makes healthcare
appear more accessible than ever before.
37 The condition, known as “cyberchondria”, describes a state of health anxiety
fueled by excessive online searching. The process often works like this: an individual researches a
common symptom, only to find it could be linked to a severe illness. This can lead to self-
misdiagnosis (自我误诊) and intense, unnecessary worry. 38 They advise the initial step
in treatment is to drastically (极大地) reduce the patients’ internet browsing.
While the web holds a wealth of information, it critically lacks professional judgment. A
face-to-face consultation with a doctor provides not just a diagnosis, but also context, reassurance,
and a tailored treatment plan. But a trend makes physicians feel challenged. They sometimes find
patients arriving with printouts or descriptions of vague conditions they have self-diagnosed. 39
However, the internet is not solely a disruptive ( 破坏性的) force. As Professor Sue
Ziebland from the University of Oxford has found through her research, online information is
becoming a common part of patient-doctor dialogues. 40 This collaborative approach can
lead to more informed discussions. Ultimately, it seems that while the virtual world can offer a
helpful dose of information, the human medical expert remains irreplaceable for their experience
and empathetic care.
A．It can complicate the consultation process.
B．Some apps even enable remote patient monitoring.
C．Hence, building trusted medical websites is essential.
D．Online resources offer instant guidance on all health issues.
E．Experts find many such patients spend excessive time online.
F．However, this convenience comes with a significant downside.
G．Therefore, doctors now often discuss online findings with patients.

The sweet smell of horehound candy filled the kitchen, which meant Easter had truly
arrived. When I watched my mother pour the golden syrup ( 糖浆) into the tray, my mouth
watered. But then she placed a few pieces into a small paper box and handed it to me. “Please take
this to our neighbor, Mrs. Tipton,” she said softly. “And don’t forget to invite her to the
community gathering this weekend. I’m sure she would love to join us.”
However, my happy expression disappeared. In fact, the children in the neighborhood
called Mrs. Tipton the “Strange Granny”. They told stories about her towering and silent house
and the large black cat that sat in its window like a silent guardian. My mother saw my fear and
added gently, “Sometimes, people who seem different are just the ones who need a friend the
most.”
With the box feeling heavy in my hands, I walked toward her house. The path was covered
in tall and wild plants that reached for my clothes. Each step felt slower than the last. I could see
the dark windows of the house watching me. At last, I arrived at Mrs. Tipton’s house. Taking a
deep breath, I knocked on the old wooden door. To my astonishment, it was opened by a small
woman with kind eyes. “Well, hello,” she said with a warm voice. “What brings you here today?”
she asked. Surprised by her gentle tone, I shyly held out the candy. She smiled widely and invited
me inside.
I stepped into a world I had never expected. The living room was bathed in afternoon
sunlight. I could see the walls, which were covered in pretty pictures. There were also shelves full
of interesting rocks and seashells. It wasn’t a scary place at all — it was a museum of a long and
interesting life. A colorful, hand-painted dish sat on the table, overflowing with rainbow-colored
candies. I suddenly felt ashamed of my fear. This wasn’t a frightening house; it was the home of a
lonely artist who had no one to share her treasures with.
