B
In the house where I grew up, we had a room we called the library. It wasn’t a real library, of course, it was just a small room dominated by a television set. But there were bookshelves built into all four walls, and hundreds of book — hardback books of many colors — surrounded us in that room. The books, collected by my parents and grandparents throughout their lifetimes, were a part of my childhood.
But in the 1970s, I’m noticing a worrying trend: a move away from books. American homes might soon lack dedicated spaces for libraries, and hardcover books, once symbols of enduring thought and wisdom, may become endangered.
A friend who owns a bookstore in a college town tells me he struggles to sell hardback books; paperbacks, though easier to sell, still disappoint him. Students, once seen with books, now carry music records. Reading seems to be giving way to listening. Recent observations support this shift: the University of Illinois reported that a significant portion of freshmen have reading skills no better than an average eighth grader, with many of these students having been top performers in high school.
University professors note that even college graduates struggle with reading and writing. The cultural impact of this change is evident. A successful fiction book might sell a mere 3,000 copies, while a music album by a new band, Boston, has sold millions. This reflects our passive consumption era, where listening to music or watching shows requires little active engagement, unlike reading a book, which demands effort and intent.
In the past, reading was a fundamental part of life, but now, in the era of fast information access, books are losing their significant place. Today’s young Americans are more likely to read a disposable paperback than to cherish and reread a hardcover. In a society that values speed and convenience, the book for keeping and rereading is a weighty dinosaur.
24. What trend in the 1970s does the author find concerning
A. The rise of paperback books.
B. The increase in television watching.
C. The struggle to sell hardback books.
D. The decline in book reading and interest in libraries.
25. What impact does the shift away from books have on college students
A. They may have difficulty in reading and writing.
B. They read more hardbacks than paperbacks.
C. They are buying more books than music records.
D. They are more likely to engage in demanding work.
26. According to the author, what is the book for keeping and rereading viewed as today
A. A valuable resource. B. A popular trend.
C. An outdated relic. D. A new innovation.
27. What can be the suitable title for the passage
A. Library: A Valuable Place B. Books: An Endangered Species
C. Reading Makes People Wise D. Hardcovers Are Symbols of Wisdom
C
A brain implant allowed people with head injuries to function again. The deep brain stimulation implant, developed by researchers at Stanford University, aims to boost activity between the regions responsible for consciousness learning, memory, thinking and problem solving.
During the early trial, five people with brain injuries reported they were able to concentrate, read, remember and drive properly. The trial proved so effective that researchers had trouble completing the final stage, which was to switch off the device for three random participants after two of the patients declined.
Gina Arata, a trial participant, said, “I couldn’t remember anything. My left foot dropped, so I’d trip over things all the time. I was always in car accidents. Since the implant, I haven’t had any speeding tickets. I don’t trip anymore. I can remember how much money is in my bank account.”
Researchers selected patients for the trial who had recovered from comas (昏迷) with brain systems believed to be still well preserved, but not functioning as well as previously. “In these patients, those pathways are largely complete, but everything has been down-regulated (下降),” said Dr Jaimie Henderson, a professor of neurosurgery. “It’s as if the lights had been darkened and there just wasn’t enough electricity to turn them back up.” The researchers hoped that precise electrical stimulation of specific areas could turn the “lights” back up, and created a virtual model of each participant’s brain so they could trial stimulation at different locations ahead of surgery.
Guided by the theory, Dr Henderson implanted the device in the five participants who had sustained injuries between three and 18 years earlier. After allowing the device to bed-in for two weeks, the participants spent 90 days with it turned on for 12 hours a day. At the end of the 90-day treatment period, the participants had improved their mental processing speeds by an average of 32 percent.
“This is a pioneering moment,” said Dr Nicholas Schiff, co-senior author of the study. “Our goal now is to try to take the systematic steps to make this a therapy (疗法). This is enough of a signal for us to make every effort.”
28. What made it hard to end the last stage of the trial
A. Researchers’ wrong solution to problems.
B. Participants’ refusal to turn off the device.
C. The decrease in the number of participants.
D. Patients’ unwillingness to pay for the trial.
29. Why does the author mention Gina Arata
A. To present the patient’s urgent need.
B. To warn about the dangers of speeding.
C. To prove the effectiveness of the device.
D. To show the difficulty of conducting trials.
30. What does the author intend to do by referring to the “lights” in paragraph 4
A. Prove a finding. B. Explain a theory.
C. Draw a conclusion. D. Present a new topic.
31. What do Dr Nicholas Schiff’s words suggest
A. The result of the trial is very encouraging.
B. He needs more evidence to support the trial.
C. The process of the trial is far from scientific.
D. The therapy has already been widely received.
D
Would you rather watch a new movie, or an old favorite Would you rather try a dish you’ve never had at a restaurant, or stick with something you know you’ll like Researchers studying the “mere exposure effect” have found that we often prefer the familiar over the novel.
People didn’t need to experience a reward or positive outcome while around the object—simply being exposed to the object would be enough to make people like it. To test this, social psychologist Robert Zajonc had participants read words in a foreign language out loud and varied how often participants read each word (up to 25 repetitions). Next, after reading the words, participants were asked to guess at the meaning of each word by filling out a rating scale (indicating how positive or negative they thought the meaning of the word was).
He found that participants liked words that they had said more often, while words that participants hadn’t read at all were rated more negatively, and words that had been read 25 times were rated highest. Just the mere exposure to the word was enough to make participant s like it more.
One place where the mere exposure effect occurs is in advertising. It explains why seeing the same advertisement multiple times could be more convincing than just seeing it once. Of course, there’s a caution here: the mere exposure effect doesn’t happen for things we initially dislike. Researchers have found that our liking for a variety of things (including pictures, sounds, foods, and smells) can be increased with repeated exposure, suggesting that the mere exposure effect isn’t limited to just one of our senses. Additionally, researchers have found that the mere exposure effect occurs in studies with human research participants as well as in studies with non-human animals.
Another key finding from this analysis was that participants eventually started to like object s less after many repeated exposures. In other words, a smaller number of repeated exposures will make you like something more——but, if the repeated exposures continue, you could eventually get tired of it.
32. What is the key factor in Robert Zajonc’s test
A. Frequency. B. Preference. C. Originality. D. Achievement.
33. Which of the following is an example of mere-exposure effect
A. We favor an advertisement at the first sight.
B. A student joined in the club because of love.
C. We are more convinced of what we met before.
D. A student read as many English words as possible.
34. What can we learn about “mere exposure effect” according to paragraph 4
A. It is the result of advertising.
B. It has nothing to do with animals.
C. It is true of what we dislike at first.
D. It can be applied to multiple senses.
35. What is the text mainly about
A. More love because of more exposures.
B. The study on mere exposure effect.
C. Better results from the earlier exposures.
D. The application of mere exposure effect.

How to Start a Garden in 2024
Gardening is a powerful outlet for creativity, enabling you to surround yourself with beauty. It can provide homegrown food for your family, keep you in touch with nature and is also an invaluable form of exercise. 36 Here are some essential tips for beginners in gardening.
It all starts with good soil. Whatever you’re growing, fertile soil is the key. Investing in rich soil initially creates a suitable environment. 37
Grow vegetables that keep on giving. If you’re a newcomer, choose ones you can harvest more than once. Lettuce and basil are quick and easy to grow. 38 Vegetables like these mean continuous harvests, which is huge for keeping spirits high.
39 Some plants will grow tall and some will grow closer to the ground. Tall plants will shade shorter plants and prevent them getting needed sunshine. Also, give little seedlings plenty of room to stretch and grow. If they grow too close together, don’t be afraid to thin seedlings.
Save money with seeds and cuttings. Buying all of your plants from the garden center is expensive. However, you can grow a huge range of plants from seeds or cuttings. Reach out to friends and family who garden and ask them to share spare seeds with you. 40 It takes longer than buying young plants, but it is definitely more satisfying and you will learn so much.
A. Plant for every season.
B. Size up your growing space.
C. They’ll replace their leaves every time you cut them.
D. In short, gardening is beneficial to both body and soul.
E. Choose a container size appropriate for what you are growing.
F. It promotes root development, supplying nutrients for plant growth.
G. Also check to see if they have any plants you can take cuttings from.

George had his eye on a scoring record. He took a deep breath as he stood in the doorway, looking in at the basketball court. The gym was old and small, but it held a long history. Maybe today I’ll make history, George thought.
His basketball league was celebrating. Today’s championship game marked its 50th anniversary (周年) since the league’s first championship.
George looked over the brochure for the anniversary. It listed the winners of each championship game and the top scorers. He stopped suddenly when he read the name of the top scorer from a game 30 years before. He quickly went through the rest of the list. “Look!” he said to his teammate David, showing him the brochure. “You see who has the all-time record My dad! He never told me that.” “24 points,” David said. “That’s awesome!”
George’s best record was 19 points. He was the Badgers’ top scorer. “It seems that my dad never showed off something like that,” George said. When his parents arrived, George brought the brochure over to them. His dad laughed. “I didn’t miss a shot in that game. But look at the score. I would have traded every shot for a win,” he said with regret. George hadn’t noticed that his dad’s team had lost the game just by one point. “That was a great group of teammates,” his dad added. “You have great teammates in the Badgers, too.”
As George warmed up, he was still digesting his father’s words. “This will be a struggle every second,” the coach emphasized before they got on court to play. “I want to see tough defense, sharp passing, and, above all, smart play as a team.”
George was confident he could lead the Badgers to victory, just as he did in their previous games against the Lions. And he played really hard. As the game neared its end, George had already scored 23 points. Another basket would break his father’s scoring record.

He knew he had to make the right decision. Should he shoot for the record, 4 pass the ball to set up a winning play The crowd roared, their shouts a blur in George’s ears. He looked at his teammates, their faces tense and 5 (determine). Remembering his dad’s words, George made his choice. He passed the ball to David, 6 was in a perfect position for a three-pointer. David didn’t hesitate and the ball swished through the net, 7 (tie) the game.
With no defenders around, David turned and shot at the basket. George seized the rebound and took off towards the other end of the court. His heart pounded as he 8 (drive) towards the basket, feeling the weight of the moment on his shoulders. He leaped, the ball 9 (leave) his fingertips in a perfect arc. It hit the backboard 10 bounced off, rolling slowly towards the rim. George held his breath, watching as it 11 (inch) its way over the line. The crowd erupted 12 cheers as the ball fell through, giving George the record-breaking 24th point. But more importantly, it gave his team the lead. They went on 13 (win) the game, and George knew that his father 14 (be) proud.

In the house where I grew up, we had a room we called the library. It wasn’t a real library, of course, it was just a small room dominated by a television set. But there were bookshelves built into all four walls, and hundreds of book — hardback books of many colors — surrounded us in that room. The books, collected by my parents and grandparents throughout their lifetimes, were a part of my childhood.
But in the 1970s, I’m noticing a worrying trend: a move away from books. American homes might soon lack dedicated spaces for libraries, and hardcover books, once symbols of enduring thought and wisdom, may become endangered.
A friend who owns a bookstore in a college town tells me he struggles to sell hardback books; paperbacks, though easier to sell, still disappoint him. Students, once seen with books, now carry music records. Reading seems to be giving way to listening. Recent observations support this shift: the University of Illinois reported that a significant portion of freshmen have reading skills no better than an average eighth grader, with many of these students having been top performers in high school.
University professors note that even college graduates struggle with reading and writing. The cultural impact of this change is evident. A successful fiction book might sell a mere 3,000 copies, while a music album by a new band, Boston, has sold millions. This reflects our passive consumption era, where listening to music or watching shows requires little active engagement, unlike reading a book, which demands effort and intent.
In the past, reading was a fundamental part of life, but now, in the era of fast information access, books are losing their significant place. Today’s young Americans are more likely to read a disposable paperback than to cherish and reread a hardcover. In a society that values speed and convenience, the book for keeping and rereading is a weighty dinosaur.
24. What trend in the 1970s does the author find concerning
A. The rise of paperback books.
B. The increase in television watching.
C. The struggle to sell hardback books.
D. The decline in book reading and interest in libraries.
25. What impact does the shift away from books have on college students
A. They may have difficulty in reading and writing.
B. They read more hardbacks than paperbacks.
C. They are buying more books than music records.
D. They are more likely to engage in demanding work.
26. According to the author, what is the book for keeping and rereading viewed as today
A. A valuable resource. B. A popular trend.
C. An outdated relic. D. A new innovation.
27. What can be the suitable title for the passage
A. Library: A Valuable Place B. Books: An Endangered Species
C. Reading Makes People Wise D. Hardcovers Are Symbols of Wisdom

A brain implant allowed people with head injuries to function again. The deep brain stimulation implant, developed by researchers at Stanford University, aims to boost activity between the regions responsible for consciousness learning, memory, thinking and problem solving.
During the early trial, five people with brain injuries reported they were able to concentrate, read, remember and drive properly. The trial proved so effective that researchers had trouble completing the final stage, which was to switch off the device for three random participants after two of the patients declined.
Gina Arata, a trial participant, said, “I couldn’t remember anything. My left foot dropped, so I’d trip over things all the time. I was always in car accidents. Since the implant, I haven’t had any speeding tickets. I don’t trip anymore. I can remember how much money is in my bank account.”
Researchers selected patients for the trial who had recovered from comas (昏迷) with brain systems believed to be still well preserved, but not functioning as well as previously. “In these patients, those pathways are largely complete, but everything has been down-regulated (下降),” said Dr Jaimie Henderson, a professor of neurosurgery. “It’s as if the lights had been darkened and there just wasn’t enough electricity to turn them back up.” The researchers hoped that precise electrical stimulation of specific areas could turn the “lights” back up, and created a virtual model of each participant’s brain so they could trial stimulation at different locations ahead of surgery.
Guided by the theory, Dr Henderson implanted the device in the five participants who had sustained injuries between three and 18 years earlier. After allowing the device to bed-in for two weeks, the participants spent 90 days with it turned on for 12 hours a day. At the end of the 90-day treatment period, the participants had improved their mental processing speeds by an average of 32 percent.
“This is a pioneering moment,” said Dr Nicholas Schiff, co-senior author of the study. “Our goal now is to try to take the systematic steps to make this a therapy (疗法). This is enough of a signal for us to make every effort.”

29. Why does the author mention Gina Arata
A. To present the patient’s urgent need.
B. To warn about the dangers of speeding.

D. To show the difficulty of conducting trials.
30. What does the author intend to do by referring to the “lights” in paragraph 4
A. Prove a finding. B. Explain a theory.
C. Draw a conclusion. D. Present a new topic.
31. What do Dr Nicholas Schiff’s words suggest

Would you rather watch a new movie, or an old favorite Would you rather try a dish you’ve never had at a restaurant, or stick with something you know you’ll like Researchers studying the “mere exposure effect” have found that we often prefer the familiar over the novel.
People didn’t need to experience a reward or positive outcome while around the object—simply being exposed to the object would be enough to make people like it. To test this, social psychologist Robert Zajonc had participants read words in a foreign language out loud and varied how often participants read each word (up to 25 repetitions). Next, after reading the words, participants were asked to guess at the meaning of each word by filling out a rating scale (indicating how positive or negative they thought the meaning of the word was).
He found that participants liked words that they had said more often, while words that participants hadn’t read at all were rated more negatively, and words that had been read 25 times were rated highest. Just the mere exposure to the word was enough to make participant s like it more.
One place where the mere exposure effect occurs is in advertising. It explains why seeing the same advertisement multiple times could be more convincing than just seeing it once. Of course, there’s a caution here: the mere exposure effect doesn’t happen for things we initially dislike. Researchers have found that our liking for a variety of things (including pictures, sounds, foods, and smells) can be increased with repeated exposure, suggesting that the mere exposure effect isn’t limited to just one of our senses. Additionally, researchers have found that the mere exposure effect occurs in studies with human research participants as well as in studies with non-human animals.
Another key finding from this analysis was that participants eventually started to like object s less after many repeated exposures. In other words, a smaller number of repeated exposures will make you like something more——but, if the repeated exposures continue, you could eventually get tired of it.
32. What is the key factor in Robert Zajonc’s test
A. Frequency. B. Preference. C. Originality. D. Achievement.
33. Which of the following is an example of mere-exposure effect
A. We favor an advertisement at the first sight.
B. A student joined in the club because of love.
C. We are more convinced of what we met before.
D. A student read as many English words as possible.
34. What can we learn about “mere exposure effect” according to paragraph 4
A. It is the result of advertising.
B. It has nothing to do with animals.
C. It is true of what we dislike at first.
D. It can be applied to multiple senses.
35. What is the text mainly about
A. More love because of more exposures.
B. The study on mere exposure effect.
C. Better results from the earlier exposures.
D. The application of mere exposure effect.

How to Start a Garden in 2024
Gardening is a powerful outlet for creativity, enabling you to surround yourself with beauty. It can provide homegrown food for your family, keep you in touch with nature and is also an invaluable form of exercise. 36 Here are some essential tips for beginners in gardening.
It all starts with good soil. Whatever you’re growing, fertile soil is the key. Investing in rich soil initially creates a suitable environment. 37
Grow vegetables that keep on giving. If you’re a newcomer, choose ones you can harvest more than once. Lettuce and basil are quick and easy to grow. 38 Vegetables like these mean continuous harvests, which is huge for keeping spirits high.
39 Some plants will grow tall and some will grow closer to the ground. Tall plants will shade shorter plants and prevent them getting needed sunshine. Also, give little seedlings plenty of room to stretch and grow. If they grow too close together, don’t be afraid to thin seedlings.
Save money with seeds and cuttings. Buying all of your plants from the garden center is expensive. However, you can grow a huge range of plants from seeds or cuttings. Reach out to friends and family who garden and ask them to share spare seeds with you. 40 It takes longer than buying young plants, but it is definitely more satisfying and you will learn so much.
A. Plant for every season.
B. Size up your growing space.
C. They’ll replace their leaves every time you cut them.
D. In short, gardening is beneficial to both body and soul.
E. Choose a container size appropriate for what you are growing.
F. It promotes root development, supplying nutrients for plant growth.
G. Also check to see if they have any plants you can take cuttings from.

五、读后续写
George had his eye on a scoring record. He took a deep breath as he stood in the doorway, looking in at the basketball court. The gym was old and small, but it held a long history. Maybe today I’ll make history, George thought.
His basketball league was celebrating. Today’s championship game marked its 50th anniversary (周年) since the league’s first championship.
George looked over the brochure for the anniversary. It listed the winners of each championship game and the top scorers. He stopped suddenly when he read the name of the top scorer from a game 30 years before. He quickly went through the rest of the list. “Look!” he said to his teammate David, showing him the brochure. “You see who has the all-time record My dad! He never told me that.” “24 points,” David said. “That’s awesome!”
George’s best record was 19 points. He was the Badgers’ top scorer. “It seems that my dad never showed off something like that,” George said. When his parents arrived, George brought the brochure over to them. His dad laughed. “I didn’t miss a shot in that game. But look at the score. I would have traded every shot for a win,” he said with regret. George hadn’t noticed that his dad’s team had lost the game just by one point. “That was a great group of teammates,” his dad added. “You have great teammates in the Badgers, too.”
As George warmed up, he was still digesting his father’s words. “This will be a struggle every second,” the coach emphasized before they got on court to play. “I want to see tough defense, sharp passing, and, above all, smart play as a team.”
George was confident he could lead the Badgers to victory, just as he did in their previous games against the Lions. And he played really hard. As the game neared its end, George had already scored 23 points. Another basket would break his father’s scoring record.
【导语】本文讲述了乔治在浏览篮球队周年纪念手册的时候,发现是父亲保持了最佳射手的名称,于是乔治再一次比赛时发现再进一个球就会打破他父亲的得分记录,最终取得胜利。
【线索】比分落后—下定决心—队友合作—投球成功—打破纪录—团队领先—父亲骄傲
However, his team was now one point behind the Lions. George’s heart raced as he 1 (eye) the basketball in his hands. The clock 2 (tick) down, and every second felt 3 an eternity. He knew he had to make the right decision. Should he shoot for the record, 4 pass the ball to set up a winning play The crowd roared, their shouts a blur in George’s ears. He looked at his teammates, their faces tense and 5 (determine). Remembering his dad’s words, George made his choice. He passed the ball to David, 6 was in a perfect position for a three-pointer. David didn’t hesitate and the ball swished through the net, 7 (tie) the game.
With no defenders around, David turned and shot at the basket. George seized the rebound and took off towards the other end of the court. His heart pounded as he 8 (drive) towards the basket, feeling the weight of the moment on his shoulders. He leaped, the ball 9 (leave) his fingertips in a perfect arc. It hit the backboard 10 bounced off, rolling slowly towards the rim. George held his breath, watching as it 11 (inch) its way over the line. The crowd erupted 12 cheers as the ball fell through, giving George the record-breaking 24th point. But more importantly, it gave his team the lead. They went on 13 (win) the game, and George knew that his father 14 (be) proud.
