On a cool autumn evening, while wandering through the streets of the old town, my attention was captured by
a charming bookstore located between towering buildings. The warm light through its windows drew me closer, and
without realizing it, I stood at its entrance, peering through the glass.
Earlier that day, after enjoying a pleasant lunch with friends, I had decided to explore the city on foot. Despite
passing through this part of town numerous times, I had never spotted the charming bookstore. However, on this
particular evening, something about it seemed irresistibly inviting.
Gently brushing away the fallen leaves from the window frame, I took a closer look inside. Rows of shelves
filled with books of various sizes and colors stretched across the small and friendly interior, each volume whispering
tales of adventure and wisdom. As my eyes moved over the titles, a wave of fond memories washed over me,
transporting me back to my childhood.
Growing up, my world was dominated by sports and outdoor activities, often at my father’s insistence. He
would say, “You need to play football, Alex. It builds character.” Yet deep down, I always felt out of place on the
football field, my mind wandering to distant lands and heroic tales.
Every Sunday, after an exhausting football match, I would secretly go to my room and lose myself in books.
The characters became my friends, and their journeys provided my escape. I still vividly recall the overwhelming joy
I experienced when I first read about the adventures of a young wizard. His bravery and determination deeply
touched me.
One day, our school librarian noticed my passion for reading and suggested I join the book club. Hesitant and
unsure of my father’s reaction, I took the club flyer (宣传单) home, my heart racing with a mix of fear and hope. To
my surprise, he was supportive, his typically serious expression softening as he signed the permission slip.
Joining the book club marked a turning point. I discovered a community where I truly belonged, and my
passion for reading was embraced and nurtured. I began to craft my own stories, each one reflecting my dreams and
desires.
As I stood there, lost in these thoughts, the door of bookstore opened, inviting me in. Stepping inside felt like
coming home, a place where dreams and reality met. It was a reminder of how books had shaped my life, guiding me
through the challenges of childhood and inspiring me to find my true passion.
41．What was the author’s first impression of the bookstore on the autumn evening?
A．It appeared to be closed and deserted.
B．It seemed disappointing and dark.
C．It was incredibly welcome.
D．It looked modern and busy.
42．Why did the author’s father ask him to play football during his upbringing?
A．To improve his strong personal qualities.
B．To keep him physically fit and healthy.
C．To prepare him for a sports career.
D．To follow a family tradition.
43．The father’s act of signing the club flyer implies that he is ________.
A．strict and demanding
B．mindless and annoying
C．considerate and approving
D．protective and understanding
44．What effect did joining the book club have on the author?
A．It isolated him from social life.
B．It made him give up on sports entirely.
C．It shaped the author’s personal growth. D．It changed the author’s view on reading.
45．What message does the author’s story convey
A．Meeting expectations.
B．Pursuing one’s passions.
C．Exploring with excitement.
D．Prioritizing physical activities.

（热点话题）Some people worry that there’s too much technology in our lives. And they may have a point,
given how countless people now carry the internet around in their pocket and use it as a primary form of
communication. It’s practically difficult to shun technology in our world. There are computer microchips ( 微芯片)
in our watches, our cars, light switches, even our pets! Where will it end?
Well, if certain people have their way, it’ll go even further. We’ll have microchips implanted into our brains
that can interact with the computers by thought alone. It may sound like something from the science fiction, but in
many ways, things look quite promising. Thanks to the ability to send and receive information remotely via
computers, microchips and other related devices have long been put into brains.
For example, electrodes have been implanted in the brains of epilepsy patients to better record and even
predict the abnormal neurological ( 神经病学的) activity. Similarly, deep-brain stimulation, through implanted
devices that cause activity in key brain regions, is an established treatment for things like -Parkinson’s disease, and is
even being looked into for illnesses like depression.
However, it’s another thing to place such devices in healthy individuals. There are the practical concerns, not
least of which is what these chips will be made of. The inside of the brain is a mass of highly reactive chemicals and
electrical activity. Implants would need to be inert (静止的) enough to not upset the delicate processes by their
presence, but also sensitive enough to read and process the activity around them. Current technology has made
impressive progress with this, but if it were to be rolled out to millions of people, we’d need to be 100 per cent
certain that it’s safe.
How many people will actually want to have technology literally put into their brain? A surprising 60 per cent
of Americans say they’d be okay with it, but that’s when it’s purely. theoretical. In reality, the possibility of having
strangers stick chips in your brain is likely to prove unattractive, especially for a population where millions get mad
at fictional microchips in vaccines (疫苗), and even more are frightened of dentists.
Ultimately, the technology of computer-brain interface (接口) implants is still far away from us.
46．What’s the function of the first paragraph?
A．A summary of the article.
B．An introduction to the main topic.
C．An overview of the whole article.
D．An argument over the main topic.
47．What does the underlined word “implanted” mean in paragraph 2?
A．To put something into someone’s body by an operation.
B．To design something new over a period of time.
C．To prevent something from changing rapidly.
D．To get rid of something steadily.
48．What does the author want to tell us by the examples in paragraph 3?
A．The process of human-computer interaction.
B．The possible treatment for particular diseases.
C．The future of microchips and devices alike.
D．The existing application of microchip implants.
49．How may most Americans react to implanting chips in the brain in reality?
A．They may reject it.
B．They may expect it.
C．They may adjust to it.
D．They may feel curious about it,
50．Which word can best describe the technology of computer-brain interface implants?
A．Imaginary.
B．Practical.
C．Unfulfilled.
D．Impossible.

（新题材）“Do not get the idea that you’re anything special, because you’re not.” This is what English,
teacher David McCullough told graduating seniors at Wellesley High School. Mothers and fathers present at the
ceremony disagreed with McCullough’s words. But lost in the anger and protest was something we really should be
taking to heart: our young people actually have no idea whether they’re particularly talented or not. In our eagerness
to raise their self-esteem, we forgot to teach them how to realistically assess their own abilities. In fact, it’s not just
privileged high-school students: we all tend to view ourselves as above-average. Therefore, it is of vital: significance
for us to learn and teach our kids how to evaluate ourselves (themselves) objectively.
Inflated (膨胀的) self-judgments have been found in study after study, and it’s often exactly when we’re least
competent (有能力的) at a given task that we rate our performance most generously. In a 2020 study published in
the journal Medical Education, for example medical students who scored the lowest on an essay test were the most
sympathetic in their self-evaluations, while high-scoring students judged themselves much more strictly. Poor
learners, the authors note, “lack insight” into their own incapability. Why should this be? Another study offers an
explanation. People who are incapable suffer from a “dual burden”: they’re not good at what they do, and their
incapability prevents them from recognizing how bad they are.
In Dunning’s study, subjects scoring at the bottom on tests of logic, grammar and humor “extremely
overestimated” their talents. Although their test scores put them in the 624th, they guessed they were in the 12th.
What these individuals lacked was “meta cognitive skill” (元认知技巧): the ability to monitor how well (or badly)
they’re performing. In the absence of that ability, the subjects arrived at an overly hopeful view of their own
abilities.
Fortunately, there are a couple of ways to cope with this problem. First, we can learn to make honest
comparisons with others. Train yourself to recognize excellence, even when you yourself don’t possess it, and
compare what you can do against what truly excellent individuals are able to accomplish. Second, seek out feedback
that is frequent, accurate and specific Find a critic who will tell you not only how poorly you’re doing, but just what
it is that you’re doing wrong.
If we adopt these strategies — and most importantly, teach them to our children — they won’t need parents,
or a graduation ceremony speaker, to tell them whether they’re special or not. If they are, they’ll already know that
they are. Or they’ll have a plan to get that way.
51．The author thinks the problem that shouldn’t be ignored is that_________.
A．we don’t know whether our young people are talented or not
B．young people can’t reasonably define themselves
C．no requirement is set up for young people to get better
D．we always tend to consider ourselves to be privileged
52．Which is NOT mentioned about poor learners according to the passage
A．They tack the capacity to monitor how they are performing.
B．They usually give themselves high stores in self-evaluations.
C．They tend to be unable to know exactly how badly they perform.
D．They are intelligently incapable in tests and exams.
53．We can infer from the passage that those nigh-scoring students, __________.
A．are not confident about their logic and grammar
B．tend to have overly hopeful view of their own abilities
C．don’t know how well they perform due to their strict self-judgment
D．are more strict in their self-evaluations because of their proper meta cognitive skills
54．The strategies of becoming special suggest that __________.
A．the best way to recognize excellence is to study past success and failure
B．through comparison with others, one will know where and when he fails
C．we need internal honesty with ourselves and external honesty from others
D．neither parents not a graduation ceremony speaker can tell whether one is special
55．Which can be the best title of this passage?
A．Special or Not? Teach Kids To Figure It Out B．Let’s Admit That, We Are Not That Special
C．Tips On Making Ourselves More SpecialD．Tell The Truth: Kids Overestimate their Talents

阅读下面短文，并根据短文内容完成下列各题。
When Brantley Harrison and her family rescued a tiny, injured squirrel back, then released her back into the
wild, they didn’t expect to ever see her again. Nine years later, however, little Bella, they called the squirrel Bella,
still comes to visit them almost every day—as long as snacks are provided, of course.
As a baby, the terrible attack made by an owl (猫头鹰) left Bella near death, she was carefully taken in by the
Greenville County, South Carolina family, and raised by them alongside three other squirrels named Larry, Curly,
and Moe. Bella stayed with the Harrisons until she had healed successfully thanks to a regular diet of fruit, nuts, and
baby food, and was ready to jump on the trees in the forest. The sweet squirrel never goes too far from her adopted
home, though, and stops by to say hello whenever she can, despite how much time has passed.
“Bella sits right at the front door waiting for someone to notice she has come by for a visit. If no one notices
her, she will jump over to the dining room window to wait for someone to see her,” Brantley told The Dodo. The
little lady just isn’t ready to part with the family that succored her life. Whenever she stops by, she asks for nothing
more than a handful of nuts.
What is the most amazing part? A few years after Bella’s original stay at the Harrison house, she found her
way back to them with an injured foot—and a belly full of babies—spending another few months of recovering. “It
was truly amazing to watch the baby I raised raise her own babies,” Brantley said. Bella now even has her own
Instagram page, where her human family documents her adventures, with almost 4 thousand followers!
56．What happened after little Bella was injured by an owl? (No more than 10 words)
57．How did the Harrisons take care of little Bella? (No more than 15 words)
