“That’s what’s great about being a writer,” Hanif Kureishi told an interviewer a decade ago. “Every 10 years
you become somebody else.” He was 59 then, looking back on his younger days; in his 30s, he’d made his mark
with the Oscar-nominated play for My Beautiful Laundrette. The son of an English mother and a Pakistani father,
he was a disobedient boy in the spotlight, close to working-class locals and worldly elites (精英), unashamed of
smoking, and funny. Inspired by Wodehouse, he connected deeply with upstart young readers and writers,
eventually finding his unique style.
Then, at the age of 68, in 2022, he became somebody unimaginably different after he keeled over onto a hard
floor in Rome. Trapped in a paralyzed body in a hospital bed, he tweeted two weeks later, via his son: “An insect, a
hero or Frankenstein’s monster. Out of these mixings will come horrors and amazements. Every day when I speak
out these, I open what is left of my broken body to stop myself from dying inside.” And suddenly, Kureishi was
back in the spotlight.
When I went to visit him two years later, he was in his power chair, his mobility limited to controlling his
第 4页/共 13页
chair and leaning forward. Now a mixture of medicine has become a major part of his life, as he’s taking 12 or so a
day to maintain his body functions.
However, he went cold turkey on nearly everything else, driven by another need. Right away, he was “mad to
write”. The brief and direct nature of Twitter gave his individual statements a nail-biting tension: “Sitting here in
this dull room, I wouldn’t advise having an accident like mine, but I would say that lying completely still and silent,
without much distraction, is certainly good for creativity,” he tweeted.
Two weeks after the accident, his son integrated his dictations into essays, which finally worked as Shattered,
a memoir of Kureishi’s new life. He is currently writing a follow-up book and developing a film project. “I’ve
never felt such a strong desire to be a writer,” he shared. “It’s a relief that being a writer means fully experiencing
life and understanding the world around me.”
4. What does paragraph 1 mainly talk about
A. Concepts regarding being a great writer.
B. Kureishi’s early life experiences.
C. Changes in Kureishi’s youthful times.
D. Previous memories of achievements.
5. What brought Hanif Kureishi back to the spotlight
A. The publication of his groundbreaking novel.
B. The paralysis he suffered after a fall in Rome.
C. His reflections posted on the social media.
D. His approval of engaging in an interview.
6. Which best explains the underlined phrase “went cold turkey on” in paragraph 4
A. postponed gradually B. quitted suddenly
C. started enthusiastically D. persisted resolutely
7. What does Kureishi imply by saying “lying completely still…is certainly good for creativity,”
A. Physical limitations directed his attention to writing.
B. Hospitals provided him with excellent writing resources.
C. What he heard in the dull room sparked his inspiration.
D. Social media distractions unexpectedly triggered his innovation.
C
There’s a popular saying that if only one voice is allowed to exist; then that one voice must be a lie. This quote
第 5页/共 13页
couldn’t be more relevant now as many businesses and platforms are using shady practices to silence negative
feedback and ensure only those voices benefiting them remain. This practice is so-called “artificial review boosting”
, and has been influencing objectivity in reviews ever since.
Its origin dates back to the 20th century when businesses would hand out free samples to obtain a better
reputation. However, the practice rises to a new extreme with the emergence of e-commerce platforms. Many
online businesses do whatever it takes to ensure high-rating scores, either through giving bonuses and rewards to
customers who leave a good review or through bothering and threatening those who leave a negative one. This
behavior is not only morally corrupt but also illegal, and it is absurd that many consumers feel they can’t leave
negative feedback out of fear that businesses will cause trouble.
It’s apparent that this problem is getting out of hand, but how can we fix it Regulator intervention would
certainly help. There should be a tougher crackdown on illegal practices, and e-commerce platforms should be
required to protect the privacy of their users. Nevertheless, this is just a small part of the changes needed, as the
rating system as a whole needs restructuring. That’s because this system rewards dishonest sellers rather than those
selling quality products, and e-commerce platforms, with their profits unaffected, turn a blind eye to its faults.
Against all odds, honest feedback has persisted and people who voice their true opinions still exist, but they
are becoming rarer. There’s an old saying that if you put a frog in boiling water, it will leap out, but if you cook the
frog slowly in warm water, it won’t notice being cooked alive. We consumers are just like frogs — it’s easy for us
to fight together against terrible acts robbing our freedom, but we often ignore when the same freedom is gradually
taken from us. There will be no grand coup de grace (致命一击) that ends honest panies will just let
it fade away slowly but we mustn’t allow that to happen because consumers play a more important role in keeping
honest feedback.
8. What is the main issue discussed in the text
A. The illegal practices of consumers.
B. The history of e-commerce platforms.
C. The benefits of free samples for businesses.
D. The decline of honest feedback due to artificial review boosting.
9. How do businesses ensure high-rating scores according to the text
A. By improving product quality.
B. By cooperating with regulators.
第 6页/共 13页
C. By restructuring the rating system.
D. By rewarding positive reviews and threatening negative reviewers.
10. What does the frog analogy imply about consumers
A. They are as adaptable as frogs in hot water.
B. They are easily frightened by sudden threats.
C. They fail to notice the gradual loss of their freedom.
D. They should fight against terrible acts immediately.
11. What does the author suggest about the current rating system
A. It effectively promotes honest sellers.
B. It prioritizes dishonest sellers over honest ones.
C. It has been improved by e-commerce platforms.
D. It is unaffected by consumer feedback and product quality.
D
Past research has shown that many aspects of memory are affected by ageing, whereas recognition tasks that
rely on well-known information are not. The effect of age on the ability to recall music has also been investigated,
but Sarah Sauve, a music scientist at the University of Lincoln, was interested in exploring this effect in a
real-world setting such as a live concert.
In her study published in PLOS ONE, she tested how well a group of 90 healthy adults, ranging in age from 18
to 86, were able to recognize familiar and unfamiliar musical themes at a live concert. The study focused on three
music pieces: Eine Kleine Nachtmusik by Mozart, which most participants were familiar with, and two
experimental pieces. One of these was tonal and easy to listen to; the other was more atonal (无调的) and didn’t
follow the typical melodic (旋律的) standards of Western classical music. A short melodic phrase from each of the
three pieces was played three times at the beginning of that piece, and participants then logged whenever they
recognized that theme in the piece.
The melodic phrase from the Eine Kleine Nachtmusik was equally well recognized across all ages, with no
loss of recognition as age increased. All participants were less confident in recognizing the theme in the unfamiliar
tonal piece, and even less confident with the unfamiliar atonal piece. This pattern, too, did not vary with age.
Steffen Herff, a cognitive (认知的) neuroscientist, says the reason musical memory seems to be resistant to
age-related cognitive declines might be the emotions that music stirs in people, which makes it more rooted in
memory. “We know from general memory research that, effectively, the emotional processing operates a little bit
第 7页/共 13页
like an important stamp,” he says.
The study collected limited data on some participants’ cognitive health, and so didn’t provide detailed insights
into how cognitive disorders affect memory recall. But it revealed the great interest in using music as a memory aid
for other information in individuals with neurogenerative conditions such as dementia (痴呆).
12. What was the main purpose of Sarah Sauve’s study
A. To investigate memory abilities between young and old adults.
B. To test how age affects music recognition in live concert settings.
C. To explore the emotional impact of classical music on memory.
D To develop new treatments for individuals with cognitive decline.
13. What should participants do in Sarah Sauve’s experiment
A. Differentiate three representative works.
B. Appreciate an atonal melody repeatedly.
C. Expose themselves to diverse musical themes.
D Identify specific phrases previously encountered.
14 Why might musical memory resist age-related decline according to Steffen Herff
A. Music training improves cognitive flexibility.
B. Emotional responses strengthen memory storage.
C. Familiar classical music leaves lasting impressions.
D. Atonal music challenges memory processing.
15. Which of the following is the best title for the text
A. Age-Related Memory Loss: The Role of Classical Music
B. Live Concerts Improve Cognitive Health in Older Adults
C. Emotional Music Memories Resist Effects of Aging
D. New Therapies for Dementia Using Atonal Music

The Enchanted Valley Rescue
Liam, a nature-loving adventurer, set off on a solo trip to the famous Enchanted Valley. As he walked along
the ancient path, the valley revealed its breathtaking beauty. Green grasslands were dotted with rare wildflowers,
and a clear stream wound through the valley, its gentle flow creating a soothing melody.
Suddenly, without warning, dark clouds gathered overhead like an advancing army. A fierce storm went down
upon the valley with a vengeance (复仇). Lightning flashed across the sky, splitting the darkness, and thunder
roared, shaking the very ground beneath Liam’s feet. Panic surged through him like a wild current. He desperately
tried to find shelter, his heart pounding in his chest like a drum. But the muddy ground betrayed him, and he
slipped, falling down a steep hill. Pain shot through his ankle as it twisted violently, and he suddenly flopped down
to the ground, unable to stand.
Hours dragged by, and when the rain finally stopped, Liam was not just physically exhausted but mentally
tired out. Fear bit at his insides like a hungry beast. Just when he thought all was lost, he heard a soft noisy sound.
A deer emerged from the bushes, its eyes gentle and filled with an almost otherworldly understanding. It circled
Liam a few times, its movement slow and deliberate (从容的), and then turned back, as if persuading him to follow.
Liam was hesitant at first, his mind filled with doubts. But with no other hope in sight, he grasped a fallen branch,
using it as a walking stick, and hobbled after the deer, his steps unsteady and his heart still pounding with a mix of
fear and hope.
The deer led him to a small cave hidden behind thick climbing plants. Inside, there were dry leaves and some
edible berries. Liam was both surprised and grateful for this unexpected help from nature. But as night fell, Liam
knew he was still in danger. Rescue was not guaranteed, and his injuries made it hard to move.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为 150 个左右；

With the limited strength left in his body, Liam decided to make the most of the resources in the cave.
