D
The smell of fried rice fills the air as you sit around the family table. But instead of sharing stories, everyone’s eyes are fixed on their phones. This is becoming common in Chinese families. A survey shows 68% of Hangzhou teenagers check social media during meals. Does this habit hurt our real-life relations
Screen Time vs Family Time
Studies show that no-phone dinners improve relationships. When a phone is placed face down, people make 20% more eye contact according to Peking University researchers. Simple acts like passing dishes or laughing at grandparents’ stories create warmth that WeChat stickers (表情包) can’t replace.
The “Fear of Missing Out” Trap
Many teenagers argue they need to check phones for fear of missing latest news. But Dr. Li from Zhejiang University warns, “FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) actually makes people more worried. Those endless group talking will still be there after dinner.” Interestingly, 54% of students in a Hangzhou No. 2 High School study agreed that they felt more relaxed after phone-free meals.
Finding the Balance
Completely stopping phone use may cause arguments. Why not try small steps Some families create “tech baskets” to collect phones during meals. Others allow 5-minute phone checks after eating main courses. The key is to treat real conversations as the main dish, and phone time as just side dishes.
When you finish today’s dinner, take a moment to think: Will I remember the funny videos watched alone, or the laughter shared with family over home-made dishes
12．What’s the writer’s main purpose in Paragraph 2
A．To compare different dining habits
B．To show benefits (好处) of phone-free dinners
C．To explain how eye contact works
D．To discuss popular social media apps
13．The word “FOMO” in Paragraph 3 refers to ________.
A．fear of making offline friends B．worry about missing online information
C．joy from family gatherings D．stress about school exams
14．What does the author want to show by using “side dishes” in Paragraph 4
A．To show that phones can make meals more enjoyable
B．To explain that family talks should be the main focus
C．To prove that technology is unnecessary in daily life
D．To suggest that desserts should be eaten after phones
15．Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage
A． B． C． D．
【答案】12．B 13．B 14．B 15．B
【导语】本文主要讲述了青少年在吃饭时使用手机，对家人的交流造成影响。
12．推理判断题。根据“When a phone is placed face down, people make 20% more eye contact according to Peking University researchers.”可知，根据北京大学的研究，当手机正面朝下放置时，人们的眼神交流会增加20%。再结合选项可知，作者在第二段中的主要目的是想说明不用手机的晚餐的好处。故选B。
13．词句猜测题。根据“Many teenagers argue they need to check phones for fear of missing latest news. But Dr. Li from Zhejiang University warns, ‘FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) actually makes people more worried. Those endless group talking will still be there after dinner.’”可知，FOMO指的是害怕错过线上信息。故选B。
14．细节理解题。根据“The key is to treat real conversations as the main dish, and phone time as just side dishes.”可知，作者想要解释家庭谈话应该是主要焦点。故选B。
15．篇章结构题。根据全文可知，第一段主要引出话题，第二、三、四段分别讲述了吃饭时使用手机影响家人交流的现象、原因以及作者的看法，最后一段总结全文。故选B。

Thankfully, a boy happened to be walking by at just the right time. ________. He saw James catching his throat, and found that the boy’s face had turned completely purple. So he ran behind James quickly and started doing the Heimlich maneuver (海姆利克急救法). In the end, James shouted, “It’s out! It’s out!”
Peter said he’d learned how to do the Heimlich from a book some years before. So he understood the physics (物理现象) behind it: ________.
Peter and James said the choking event led to a close friendship, and James was very thankful to his friend for helping him when others didn’t even know he was in trouble. “He knew what to do and I’m glad he knew what to do.” James said, “or I probably wouldn’t be talking.”

16．根据首段描述James在午餐时被鸡骨头卡住喉咙并被Peter用海姆利克法救下的情节，选项D“一次午餐时间的救命急救”概括事件核心，适合作为标题。故选D。
17．根据“accidentally swallowing a piece of chicken bones”及后文“couldn’t breathe”，选项A“他开始窒息并抓住喉咙”描述窒息反应，衔接自然。故选A。
18．后文提到男孩Peter实施急救，选项C“11岁的Peter知道该怎么做”引出救人者身份与行动，符合上下文逻辑。故选C。
19．空格需解释海姆利克法的物理原理，选项E“推动空气通过气道将异物排出”直接说明急救机制，与Peter“learned from a book”呼应。故选E。
20．开放性试题，言之有理即可。根据“Peter said he’d learned how to do the Heimlich from a book”，可推断急救知识可通过书籍或专业指导 (如急救培训师) 学习。故填Learn from first aid books or trained instructors.

【导语】本文介绍小说《你好，宇宙》的核心内容：四位性格迥异的中学生因一次意外团结合作，最终建立了深厚友谊，故事强调“团结克服困难”及“差异成就互补”的主题。
51．句意：Virgil是一个11岁的男孩，他的家庭来自菲律宾。根据“11-year-old”前需不定冠词表泛指，且“11”发音以元音开头，故填an。
52．句意：他只和他的宠物，一只豚鼠说话。talk交谈，动词；根据“comes from”可知，整个故事是现在时态叙述的，所以这里应该用一般现在时的第三人称单数形式，故填talks。
53．句意：Valencia的耳朵听不见，她聪明、勇敢，对大自然的一切都很感兴趣。根据“interested...everything about nature.”可知，此处考查固定搭配“be interested in”，意为“对……感兴趣”，故填in。
54．句意：她的姐姐Gen总跟在她身边。follow跟随，动词；根据“Her sister Gen, is always...her around.”可知，这里用现在进行时，结构是：be always doing sth.“总是做某事”，follow的现在分词是following。故填following。
55．句意：这四个学生本来不是朋友，直到其中一个被困在井里。根据“The four students are not friends...one of them gets caught in a well.”可知，这里需要填入一个连词，表示“直到……才”或者“当……的时候”；结合上下文，应该是直到其中一个被困在井里，他们才成为朋友。所以应用“until”。故填until。
56．句意：Chet Bullens是社区里最大的霸凌者。big大的，形容词；根据“Chet Bullens is the...bully”可知，前面有the，这里用形容词最高级，所以填big的最高级形式“biggest”，故填biggest。
57．句意：Valencia，Tanaka和Gen随后踏上了一场冒险之旅，他们凭借智慧、勇气以及来自宇宙的一点帮助，竭尽全力去营救维吉尔和他的宠物。they他们，主格；根据“try...best to save”可知，这里考查固定短语try one’s best“尽某人最大努力”，因为主语是Valencia, Tanaka, and Gen，复数，所以物主代词用their。故填their。
58．句意：《你好，宇宙》讲述了四个孩子之间的友谊。friend朋友，名词；根据“about the...between four kids.”可知，这里表示“友谊”，friendship“友谊”，故填friendship。
59．句意：由于其美丽且有趣的故事，《你好，宇宙》在 2018 年获得了纽伯瑞奖，这是儿童文学领域的最高奖项。win赢得，动词；根据“Hello, Universe...Newbery Medal in 2018”可知，这里需用动词的过去式，故填won。
60．句意：由于其美丽且有趣的故事，《你好，宇宙》在 2018 年获得了纽伯瑞奖，这是儿童文学领域的最高奖项。child儿童，名词；根据“the highest award in the field of literature (文学) for...”可知，此处泛指儿童群体，用复数，故填children。

Chen’s coffee shop Mei@Yucun opened in March in Anji’s Yucun village.

Models of cartoon characters also fill the coffee shop, which sells around 100 cultural and creative products based on the cartoons. “The characters are from classic cartoons made by the studio.

“As more people began to visit Yucun village, I decided to open a coffee shop here at first,” said Chen. “ ★ I wanted to bring coffee and cartoon characters to the village, to add color and energy to the countryside. Because of their love of Chinese animations, people’s attention is caught easily. They are reminded of their childhood, when they could enjoy cartoons and be happy.”

The smell of fried rice fills the air as you sit around the family table. But instead of sharing stories, everyone’s eyes are fixed on their phones. This is becoming common in Chinese families. A survey shows 68% of Hangzhou teenagers check social media during meals. Does this habit hurt our real-life relations
Screen Time vs Family Time
Studies show that no-phone dinners improve relationships. When a phone is placed face down, people make 20% more eye contact according to Peking University researchers. Simple acts like passing dishes or laughing at grandparents’ stories create warmth that WeChat stickers (表情包) can’t replace.
The “Fear of Missing Out” Trap
Many teenagers argue they need to check phones for fear of missing latest news. But Dr. Li from Zhejiang University warns, “FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) actually makes people more worried. Those endless group talking will still be there after dinner.” Interestingly, 54% of students in a Hangzhou No. 2 High School study agreed that they felt more relaxed after phone-free meals.
Finding the Balance
Completely stopping phone use may cause arguments. Why not try small steps Some families create “tech baskets” to collect phones during meals. Others allow 5-minute phone checks after eating main courses. The key is to treat real conversations as the main dish, and phone time as just side dishes.
When you finish today’s dinner, take a moment to think: Will I remember the funny videos watched alone, or the laughter shared with family over home-made dishes
12．What’s the writer’s main purpose in Paragraph 2
A．To compare different dining habits
B．To show benefits (好处) of phone-free dinners

A．fear of making offline friends B．worry about missing online information

14．What does the author want to show by using “side dishes” in Paragraph 4
A．To show that phones can make meals more enjoyable
B．To explain that family talks should be the main focus
C．To prove that technology is unnecessary in daily life
D．To suggest that desserts should be eaten after phones
15．Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage
A． B． C． D．
