Prices have been rising rapidly in cities across the world, driving the cost of living higher than ever before. But not everywhere has been impacted equally. For travelers, these places can offer the same big-city convenient facilities at a much lower cost of living.
Lisbon, Portugal
As the least-expensive city in Western Europe, according to the EIU rankings, Lisbon has been a hot spot for travelers in recent years. Mercedes Zach recommends exploring the bohemian (波西米亚式的) Bairro Alto neighbourhood to uncover street art, city views and sunset gatherings with locals. The Roman Theatre Museum gives a glimpse into the city’s Roman past, with preserved theatre ruins.
Toronto, Canada
Canadian cities to the north continue to remain lower in the cost-of-living rankings. Of all the Canadian cities ranked, Toronto ranks the most affordable. Toronto resident Stephanie Ciccarelli recommends city sightseeing via boat cruise on Lake Ontario, or visiting the Hockey Hall of Fame.
Tokyo, Japan
Moving three down the index (指标) this year and ranking 60 overall, Tokyo continues to be Japan’s most expensive city yet is now more affordable than fellow Asian cities like Singapore and Hong Kong. Tokyo resident Masa Yamamoto encourages tourists to wander around the urban garden and public art displays at the newly developed Azabudai Hills neighbourhood for free. For a new perspective on the city, he recommends the contemporary art Mori Art Museum and its connected Tokyo City View, which offers a view of the city from 250 m above sea level for just 2,000 yen.

The wind roils the Midwest plains as if it is searching for someone or something to carry away. Dust and chaff funnel into blinding clouds. The clatter of storms overhead makes it impossible to hear, and herds of bison (野牛) grow restless. The Omaha tribe has wandered these plains for generations, and now, it seems that the winds have brought back one of their own. Susan La Flesche has returned to the village where she was born. Not as a visitor, but as the region’s only doctor.
When Susan was 8 years old, she waited at the bedside of an elderly woman writhing in pain. A doctor was called for. They waited. A messenger was sent. The doctor still didn’t come. Susan provided what comfort she could through the night, but by sunrise, the elderly woman had died. The episode both haunted and motivated Susan. She threw herself into her studies and earned her way to what is now Hampton University in Virginia—a historically Black college with a program for native American students. And she finished second in her class.
Susan would never forget the childhood she enjoyed, full of powwows, buffalo hunts and the people she loved. But there was further to go. She enrolled in the Women’s Medical College of Pennsylvania, a tedious train ride away from the world she knew. It was 1886, and the Victorian age held stiff against the progress of women. In her graduation speech from Hampton, she told the East Coast audience, “Give us a chance.” Three years later, she became a doctor.
Returning to the plains to serve her people was a difficult task. She opened an office in the government boarding school and began seeing patients. The lines were long, old and young seeking reprieve (缓解) from cholera and tuberculosis (肺结核) as well as a slew of other diseases. Susan worked long hours at her office but also braved the wind and snow, walking miles to make house calls. Her work was more than as a physician. She often acted as lawyer, accountant, priest, political liaison and counselor as she helped the Omahas navigate the new world. And Dr Susan La Flesche was determined to spend her entire life helping her people navigate the storms.
4.What contributed to Susan’s being a doctor
A. Her poor family.
B. Her desire for knowledge.
C. The opposition to women’s progress.
D. The lack of medical resources in her hometown.
5.What can we infer about Susan from the third paragraph
A. She had an unhappy childhood. B. She enjoyed the train ride to her college.
C. She got high marks in every exam. D. She encountered difficulties in her college life.
6.What is the author’s purpose in describing diverse roles of Susan in paragraph 4
A. To emphasize her lack of focus on her medical career.
B. To suggest that she was overburdened with responsibilities.
C. To highlight her dedication to serving the community wholeheartedly.
D. To showcase her adaptability in fulfilling various roles within her community.
7.What could be the best title for the passage
A. A Force of Nature: Dr Susan La Flesche’s Impact
B. Winds of Change: Dr Susan La Flesche’s Legacy
C. The Resilient Doctor: Dr Susan La Flesche’s Triumph
D. Whispering Winds: Dr Susan La Flesche’s Mysterious Journey

Knowledge is power, and the more you learn about mental health, the better the position you may be in to help those facing mental health battles. Consider doing the following things to support those closest to you.
Attend a training course
1 . In fact, anyone can benefit from depression awareness training that focuses on supporting those at risk. You might be a teacher that manages youth or a sports coach wanting to pick up on depression risk signs in your players. You may even be a worried parent who wants to make sure your children can tell you anything. Depression awareness and prevention courses teach you both theoretical and practical skills to recognize warning signs and behaviors. 2 .
Listen
If someone approaches you in their time of need, it’s not always easy to know what you’re supposed to do, and it may be more beneficial for you to just listen. 3 . They may just need to get what they are feeling off their chest and to feel valid at that moment. Try your best not to interrupt, but ask questions if you require clarification. The more listening you do, the better your position in deciding what to do next.
4
While being a listening ear is sometimes all someone needs to feel better, you can also become an ongoing source of support. Check in with the person experiencing a mental health problem like depression so that they know you are always there for them. Make contact with them regularly to see how they are feeling. Just knowing someone cares can make a world of difference.
Call emergency services
Your support, guidance, and listening ear can be of great value to anyone going through a tough time. 5 . If someone you know is experiencing self-abuse thoughts or tendencies, don’t delay in seeking emergency help. The faster you act, the safer your friend or family member may be.
A. Check in with them
B. Suggest support services
C. However, it’s essential to know your limits
D. Such a course may just help you to prevent someone’s depression
E. They may not need you to offer solutions or even give them a hug
F. Sometimes, the best thing you can do is encourage them to seek professional help
G. You don’t have to be in a professional health role to attend depression prevention training

A 本文是一篇说明文。文章列举了在全球物价普遍上涨的背景下,生活成本相对较低,却拥有完善便利设施的三座大城市:葡萄牙的里斯本、加拿大的多伦多和日本的东京,并为有意前往的旅行者提供了实用的旅行推荐。
1.C 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The Roman Theatre Museum gives a glimpse into the city’s Roman past, with preserved theatre ruins.”可知,通过游览Roman Theatre Museum,游客可以对罗马这座城市的历史有所了解。
2.A 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Mercedes Zach recommends exploring the bohemian (波西米亚式的) Bairro Alto neighbourhood to uncover street art, city views and sunset gatherings with locals.”以及第四段第二句中的“public art displays at the newly developed Azabudai Hills neighbourhood for free”和第三句中的“which offers a view of the city from 250 m above sea level for just 2,000 yen”可知,游客在里斯本和东京两座城市都可以既欣赏城市景观,又可以感受艺术魅力。
3.A 主旨大意题。本文旨在列举目前在全球范围内,生活成本相对较低,同时拥有完善便利设施的三个大城市供旅行者参考,并为旅行者提供了实用的旅行推荐。
B 这是一篇记叙文。本文讲述了Susan La Flesche成为医生的故事,她因为小时候目睹一位老人因缺乏医疗资源而去世,决心学习医学,最终回到家乡为族人服务。她不仅是医生,还承担了律师、会计、牧师等多重角色,全心全意地服务于社区。
4.D 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“When Susan was 8 years old, she waited at the bedside of an elderly woman writhing in pain. A doctor was called for. They waited. A messenger was sent. The doctor still didn’t come. Susan provided what comfort she could through the night, but by sunrise, the elderly woman had died. The episode both haunted and motivated Susan. (当苏珊8岁的时候,她在一个痛苦地扭动着的老妇人的床边等着。请了医生。他们等待着。一个信使被派去了。医生仍然没有来。苏珊整夜尽力提供安慰,但到了日出时,那位老妇人还是去世了。这一事件既困扰着苏珊,也激励了她。)”可知,苏珊成为医生的原因是她的家乡缺乏医疗资源,导致她目睹了一个生命的消逝。故选D。
5.D 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“It was 1886, and the Victorian age held stiff against the progress of women.(那是1886年,维多利亚时代对女性的进步有了强烈的抵制。)”可以推断出,苏珊在大学生活中遇到了困难,因为当时的社会环境对女性并不友好。故选D。
6.C 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Susan worked long hours at her office but also braved the wind and snow, walking miles to make house calls. Her work was more than as a physician. She often acted as lawyer, accountant, priest, political liaison and counselor as she helped the Omahas navigate the new world. And Dr Susan La Flesche was determined to spend her entire life helping her people navigate the storms.(苏珊在办公室工作很长时间,但她也勇敢地冒着风雪,走几英里路去上门看诊。她的工作远不止一个医生那么简单。她还经常充当律师、会计、牧师、政治联络员和顾问,帮助奥马哈人适应新世界。苏珊·拉弗莱什医生下定决心要用她的一生来帮助她的人民渡过风雨)”可知,Susan不仅是一名医生,还扮演了律师、会计、牧师、政治联络员和顾问等角色,全心全意地为社区服务。由此可推断出,第四段的写作目的是强调她全心全意服务社区的奉献精神。故选C。
7.B 标题归纳题。根据第一段中的“Susan La Flesche has returned to the village where she was born. Not as a visitor, but as the region’s only doctor. (苏珊·拉弗莱什回到了她出生的村庄。她不是作为一名访客,而是该地区唯一的医生)”以及最后一段中的“Returning to the plains to serve her people was a difficult task. She opened an office in the government boarding school and began seeing patients. (回到平原地区为她的人民服务是一项艰巨的任务。她在公立寄宿学校开了一间办公室,并开始接待病人)”以及“And Dr Susan La Flesche was determined to spend her entire life helping her people navigate the storms. (苏珊·拉弗莱什医生决心用她的一生来帮助她的人民度过风雨。)”可知,本文主要讲述了苏珊·拉弗莱什医生如何克服重重困难,成为奥马哈部落地区唯一的医生,并全心全意为部落人民提供医疗服务的故事。她的故事如同一股变革之风,吹拂过平原,改变了人们的命运。因此,B 项“Winds of Change: Dr Susan La Flesche’s Legacy(变革之风:苏珊·拉弗莱什医生的遗产)”最能概括文章的主题。故选B。
七选五
这是一篇说明文。短文介绍了四种帮助身边有心理疾病的人的方式。
1.G 根据下文“In fact, anyone can benefit from depression awareness training that focuses on supporting those at risk. You might be a teacher that manages youth or a sports coach wanting to pick up on depression risk signs in your players. (事实上,任何人都可以从抑郁症意识培训中受益,重点是支持那些有风险的人。你可能是一名管理青少年的老师,或者是一名想要在你的球员身上发现抑郁风险迹象的体育教练。)”可知,选项承接下文,与下文话题一致,都在说明任何人都可以参加培训。故G选项“你不需要成为专业的健康专家才能参加抑郁症预防培训”切题。故选G。
2.D 根据上文“Depression awareness and prevention courses teach you both theoretical and practical skills to recognize warning signs and behaviors. (抑郁症意识和预防课程将教授你识别警告信号和行为的理论和实践技能。)”可知,选项承接上文,说明好处。故D选项“这样的课程可能会帮助你预防某人的抑郁症”切题。故选D。
3.E 根据上文“If someone approaches you in their time of need, it’s not always easy to know what you’re supposed to do, and it may be more beneficial for you to just listen. (如果有人在需要你的时候来找你,你并不总是很容易知道你应该做什么,倾听对你来说可能更有益。)”及下文“They may just need to get what they are feeling off their chest and to feel valid at that moment. (他们可能只是需要把心中的感受发泄出来,在那一刻感觉自己是正确的)”可知,倾听就足够了,连个拥抱都不需要。故E选项“他们可能不需要你提供解决方案,甚至不需要给他们一个拥抱”切题。故选E。
4.A 根据下文“Check in with the person experiencing a mental health problem like depression so that they know you are always there for them. Make contact with them regularly to see how they are feeling. Just knowing someone cares can make a world of difference. (与患有抑郁症等心理健康问题的人联系,让他们知道你总是在他们身边。定期和他们联系,看看他们的感受。只要知道有人关心你,就能让世界变得不同。)”可知,本段告诉我们要和患有抑郁症等心理健康问题的人联系。所以本段的标题为“和他们联系”。故选A。
5.C 根据上文“Your support, guidance, and listening ear can be of great value to anyone going through a tough time. (你的支持、指导和倾听对任何正在经历艰难时刻的人来说都是很有价值的)”以及下文“If someone you know is experiencing self-abuse thoughts or tendencies, don’t delay in seeking emergency help. (如果你认识的人有自虐的想法或倾向,不要拖延寻求紧急帮助。)”可知,选项与上文为转折关系,且承接下文说明有些事情是自己做不到的,要认识到自己的能力极限。故C选项“然而,了解你的极限是很重要的。”切题。故选C。
完形填空

阅读C 体裁:说明文 主题语境:人工智能 难度:★★★★
(阅读C、D)
As artificial-intelligence products steadily improve at pretending to be human—an AI produced voice that books restaurant reservations by phone, for example, or a chat robot that answers consumers’ questions online people will increasingly be put in the worrying situation of not knowing whether they are talking to a machine. But the truth may make such products less effective: recent research finds a trade-off between transparency (透明度) and cooperation in human-computer interactions.
The study used a simple game in which paired players make a series of decisions to cooperate with or betray their partner. In the long run, it pays for both to keep cooperating. The researchers used an AI product, when pretending as a person, which was better than people are at getting human partners to cooperate. But previous work suggested people tend to disbelieve machines, so the scientists wondered what would happen if the robot revealed itself as such.
The team hoped people playing with a known robot would recognize its ability to cooperate and would eventually overcome their disbelief. “Sadly, we failed at this goal,” says Talal Rahwan, a computer scientist at New York University in Abu Dhabi and a senior author on the paper, published last November in Nature Machine Intelligence. “No matter what the robot did, people just stuck to their prejudice.” A robot playing openly as a robot was less likely to get cooperation than another human, even though its strategy was clearly more beneficial to both players. In an additional experiment, players were told, “Data suggest that people are better off if they treat the robot as if it were a human.” It had no effect.
Virginia Dignum, who leads the Social and Ethical Artificial Intelligence group at Umea University in Sweden and was not involved in the study, praises the researchers for exploring the transparency effectiveness trade-off, but she would like to see it tested in a different setup.
Talal’s team said that in the public field, people should be asked for agreement to be deceived (欺骗) about a robot’s identity. It cannot be on an interaction-by-interaction basis, or else the “deception” obviously will not work. But overall permission for deception still raises ethical quandaries (困境). Dignum says humans should have the option to know after they have interacted with a robot—but if she is calling customer service with a simple question, she adds, “I just want to get my answer.”
本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了随着人工智能产品在扮演人类角色方面不断进步,人们越来越担心对面正在和自己交流的是否为一台机器,因为人们有自己的偏见,不信任机器人,即使实验证明机器人有很好的合作能力。
8.The underlined word “trade-off” is closest in meaning to .
A. distinguishing B. balancing
C. switching D. combining
B 词义猜测题。根据第二段中的“The researchers used an AI product, when pretending as a person, which was better than people are at getting human partners to cooperate. But previous work suggested people tend to disbelieve machines, so the scientists wondered what
答案与解析
would happen if the robot revealed itself as such. (研究人员使用了一种人工智能产品,当假扮成人类时,要比人类在让人类伙伴合作方面表现得更好。但之前的研究表明,人们往往不相信机器,所以科学家们想知道,如果机器人暴露了自己,会发生什么。)”和第三段中的“‘No matter what the robot did, people just stuck to their prejudice.’ A robot playing openly as a robot was less likely to get cooperation than another human, even though its strategy was clearly
答案与解析
more beneficial to both players. (‘不管机器人做什么,人们都坚持自己的偏见。’一个以机器人的身份公开比赛的机器人比另一个人获得合作的可能性更小,尽管它的策略显然对双方都更有利。)”可知,人类对机器人存有很深的偏见,即使机器人在合作方面及策略方面都更胜一筹,一旦身份暴露,人们都不会选择与其合作。故结合画线词所在句“But the truth may make such products less effective: recent research finds a trade-off between transparency (透明
答案与解析
度) and cooperation in human-computer interactions. (但事实可能会使这些产品的效果降低:最近的研究发现,在人机交互中,透明度和合作之间存在trade-off。)”可知,在人机交互的过程中,要权衡一下透明度和合作之间的关系,否则一旦人们知道对面是机器人在和他们交流,就会产生不信任感,从而降低合作的效率,故trade-off表示“权衡,平衡”。故选B。
答案与解析
9.According to the passage, what attitude do people generally take towards robots
A. Positive. B. Casual.
C. Uncertain. D. Distrustful.
D 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“But previous work suggested people tend to disbelieve machines, so the scientists wondered what would happen if the robot revealed itself as such. (但之前的研究表明,人们往往不相信机器,所以科学家们想知道,如果机器人暴露了自己,会发生什么。)”可知,人们对机器人普遍存在不信任的态度。故选D。
答案与解析
10.What can be inferred about the research findings from the third paragraph
A. They fail to support the team’s assumption.
B. They are different from the previous findings.
C. They will draw people’s attention to robots’ problems.
D. They can explain why people treat a robot like a human.
A 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“The team hoped people playing with a known robot would recognize its ability to cooperate and would eventually overcome their disbelief. ‘Sadly, we failed at this goal,’ says Talal Rahwan (该团队希望与已知机器人玩耍的人能够认识到它的合作能力,并最终克服他们的怀疑。‘很遗憾,我们没能实现这个目标,’ Talal Rahwan说)”和“No matter what the robot did, people just stuck to their prejudice. (不管机器人做什么,人们只是坚持自己的偏见。)”可知,实验结果不支持团队的假设。故选A。
答案与解析
11.According to the passage, what is Virginia Dignum most likely to agree with
A. Talal Rahwan’s research findings can’t apply to the real-world situations.
B. Overall permission for interacting with a robot does more harm than good.
C. People needn’t be told that they are interacting with a robot on all occasions.
D. The relationship between transparency and effectiveness has been fully explored.
C 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Talal’s team said that in the public field, people should be asked for agreement to be deceived (欺骗) about a robot’s identity. (Talal的团队表示,在公共领域,被机器人的身份欺骗,应该征求人们的同意。)”和“Dignum says humans should have the option to know after they have interacted with a robot—but if she is calling customer service with a simple question, she adds, ‘I just want to get my answer.’(Dignum说,人类在与机器
答案与解析
人互动后应该有选择权,但如果她打电话给客服问一个简单的问题,她补充说,‘我只想得到我的答案。’)”可知,Dignum认为人类在与机器人互动后,可以有权选择知道机器人的真实身份——但如果只是问客服一个简单的问题,就没有必要知道了,只要客服给出答案就可以。由此可见,Dignum认为人们不需要在任何情况下都被告知是在和一个机器人互动,可以有所选择。故选C。
答案与解析
阅读D 体裁:记叙文 主题语境:科学技术 难度:★★★☆☆
At just seven years old, Angelina Tsuboi discovered her passion for innovation. It all began with a simple game she programmed in her Los Angeles public school’s Grade 2 class. Today , at 18, the Grade 12 student’s initial curiosity has evolved into a deep-seated desire to use technology to decode (解码) real-world problems.
In 2021, she co-developed Megaphone, one of her first apps, to tackle unanswered post-class questions and poor communication about events and announcements. Her problem-solving ability kept building from there.
When she took online CPR classes at the start of the pandemic, she figured it couldn’t be just her who was struggling with the steps. So she created an app called CPR Buddy ― a winner in the 2022 Apple Swift Challenge—which guides users through CPR using vibrations (震动) to regulate breath. After winning the award, Angelina presented her work to Apple CEO Tim Cook, a highlight in her young career, but one she didn’t lose her cool over. “There’s no point putting people on a pedestal (神坛),” she says.
The next year, Angelina built an app called Lilac, designed to assist non English-speaking single parents with resources for housing, job opportunities and translation support. She was inspired by her own experiences as a child of a single mother who immigrated to the US.
When Angelina decided to pursue pilot training at the age of 16, she was struck by how difficult it was to find financial support, which encouraged her to create yet another app, Pilot Fast Track, which helps those longing to be pilots find scholarships for flight training.
Looking to the future, besides applying to colleges with great labs, Angelina is exploring the field of aerospace cybersecurity and mechatronics—combining computer science, electrical engineering and mechanical engineering.
“There’s not enough optimism in the world,” she says. “I have also been in situations in my life where I’ve lost a lot of hope. But in the end, it is a mindset, and there are ways in any situation you’re in to make it somewhat better.”
本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了Angelina Tsuboi如何通过技术创新解决现实问题,她的应用程序帮助了许多人,并展现了她对未来技术领域的探索和乐观的生活态度。
12.What is Angelina’s pursuit
A. To design games for kids.
B. To stimulate teens’ curiosity.
C. To address problems through technology.
D. To find innovative approaches to digital challenges.
C 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Today , at 18, the Grade 12 student’s initial curiosity has evolved into a deep-seated desire to use technology to decode (解码) real-world problems. (如今,这位18岁的12年级学生最初的好奇心已经演变成一种深切的愿望,即利用技术来破解现实世界的问题。)”可知,Angelina的志向是利用技术来解决现实世界的问题。故选C。

point putting people on a pedestal (神坛),’ she says. (在获得奖项后, Angelina向苹果公司首席执行官蒂姆·库克展示了她的作品,这是她年轻的职业生涯中的一个亮点,但她并没有因此而失去冷静。她说:‘把人放在神坛上是没有意义的。’)”可知,即使在获得苹果公司Swift挑战赛的奖项并有机会向苹果公司CEO蒂姆·库克展示自己的作品后,Angelina也没有失去冷静,她认为没有必要把人放在神坛上,这表明她对自己的成功保持谦逊。故选D。
答案与解析
14.What was the primary goal of developing Pilot Fast Track
A. To direct pilots’ career paths.
B. To help to-be pilots find funds.
C. To pair future pilots with airlines.

Knowledge is power, and the more you learn about mental health, the better the position you may be in to help those facing mental health battles. Consider doing the following things to support those closest to you.
Attend a training course
1 . In fact, anyone can benefit from depression awareness training that focuses on supporting those at risk. You might be a teacher that manages youth or a sports coach wanting to pick up on depression
risk signs in your players. You may even be a worried parent who wants to make sure your children can tell you anything. Depression awareness and prevention courses teach you both theoretical and practical skills to recognize warning signs and behaviors. 2 .
Listen
If someone approaches you in their time of need, it’s not always easy to know what you’re supposed to do, and it may be more beneficial for you to just listen. 3 . They may just need to get what they are feeling off their chest and to feel valid at that moment. Try your best not to
interrupt, but ask questions if you require clarification. The more listening you do, the better your position in deciding what to do next.
4
While being a listening ear is sometimes all someone needs to feel better, you can also become an ongoing source of support. Check in with the person experiencing a mental health problem like depression so that they know you are always there for them. Make contact with them regularly to see how they are feeling. Just knowing someone cares can make a world of difference.
Call emergency services
Your support, guidance, and listening ear can be of great value to anyone going through a tough time. 5 . If someone you know is experiencing self-abuse thoughts or tendencies, don’t delay in seeking emergency help. The faster you act, the safer your friend or family member may be.
A. Check in with them
B. Suggest support services
C. However, it’s essential to know your limits
D. Such a course may just help you to prevent someone’s depression
E. They may not need you to offer solutions or even give them a hug
F. Sometimes, the best thing you can do is encourage them to seek professional help
G. You don’t have to be in a professional health role to attend depression prevention training
这是一篇说明文。短文介绍了四种帮助身边有心理疾病的人的 方式。
1.G 根据下文“In fact, anyone can benefit from depression awareness training that focuses on supporting those at risk. You might be a teacher that manages youth or a sports coach wanting to pick up on depression risk signs in your players. (事实上,任何人都可以从抑郁症意识培

(他们可能只是需要把心中的感受发泄出来,在那一刻感觉自己是正确的)”可知,倾听就足够了,连个拥抱都不需要。故E选项“他们可能不需要你提供解决方案,甚至不需要给他们一个拥抱”切题。故选E。
答案与解析
4.A 根据下文“Check in with the person experiencing a mental health problem like depression so that they know you are always there for them. Make contact with them regularly to see how they are feeling. Just knowing someone cares can make a world of difference.
(与患有抑郁症等心理健康问题的人联系,让他们知道你总是在他们身边。定期和他们联系,看看他们的感受。只要知道有人关心你,就能让世界变得不同。)”可知,本段告诉我们要和患有抑郁症等心理健康问题的人联系。所以本段的标题为“和他们联系”。故选A。
答案与解析
5.C 根据上文“Your support, guidance, and listening ear can be of great value to anyone going through a tough time. (你的支持、指导和倾听对任何正在经历艰难时刻的人来说都是很有价值的)”以及下文“If someone you know is experiencing self-abuse thoughts or tendencies, don’t delay in seeking emergency help. (如果你认识的人有自虐的想法或倾向,不要拖延寻求紧急帮助。)”可知,选项与上文为转折关系,且承接下文说明有些事情是自己做不到的,要认识到自己的能力极限。故C选项“然而,了解你的极限是很重要的。”切题。故选C。

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Rich Danieu, a man awaiting a heart transplant (移植), had to stay in Strong Hospital in Rochester, New York, since January. His days were filled with uncertainty, medical procedures, and a longing to be with his family. The slim hope of getting cured had almost driven Danieu’s mood down to the ground. He was close to giving up. What’s worse, he was frustrated at the thought of missing a crucial event: his 5-year-old daughter Mara’s school’s father-daughter dance.
Shortly after Danieu’s arrival at the hospital, Mara had excitedly shared the news of her school’s upcoming father-daughter dance. She had been eagerly looking forward to her father’s participation. But Danieu’s illness had kept him away from his daughter’s joyous event. As the day of the dance drew near, Mara’s excitement began to be replaced by a deep sadness. “My daughter was a little upset, for I couldn’t go with her,” Danieu said to a nurse with a heavy heart.
Mara’s grandfather stepped in to take her to the dance, hoping to make the evening special for her. They both got dressed up, arrived at the school hall, and even had a beautiful photo taken. However, for Mara, something was wrong, because she noticed everybody else was with their dads. Excitement gave way to disappointment. On their way home, Mara was walking silently, without saying a word, when her grandfather received a call from the hospital.
The nurses at Strong Hospital had been closely following the family’s story. Having witnessed what Danieu was experiencing due to missing such a crucial moment in his daughter’s life, they decided to do something. They knew they couldn’t make a big change, but they could certainly create a moment of magic. On the night of the dance, with delicate care, they transformed an empty hospital room into a magical dance floor, complete with twinkling lights and soft music playing in the background.
At the same time, Danieu lay in his hospital bed, a sense of disappointment at his heart. When he was gazing out the window, a nurse came in with a warm smile.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;2.请在相应位置作答。
Led to the room, Danieu didn’t know what awaited him.

We are living in an era of rapid technological development, when electronic products have become an indispensable part of our daily lives. However, along with this comes a sharp rise of the myopia rate among teenagers from 14.5 % of 6-year-olds to over 80% of high school students, which is becoming a worrying phenomenon.
With National Eye Caring Day approaching, our school calls on everyone to pay attention to eye health. Firstly, develop eye caring habits such as looking into the distance every 20-30 minutes to rest our eyes and maintain eye exercises. Secondly, participate actively in outdoor activities to keep our eyes away from electronic products. Most importantly, ensure sufficient sleep and avoid staying up late.
For the health of our eyes, let’s take action now!

Led to the room, Danieu didn’t know what awaited him. Approaching the doorway, he could hear the music playing pretty softly and someone giggling. As Danieu entered the room, the sight that met his eyes brought tears of joy streaming down his face. There, in the middle of the room, was his beloved daughter, Mara, dressed in her finest. She rushed into her father’s arms and they began to dance, twirling around, lost in a world of their own. The nurses watched from the sideline. Their hearts warmed by the emotional reunion they had arranged.
That special dance brought great strength and hope to Danieu. He felt a renewed sense of purpose and determination. At that moment, all his worries and fears melted away, replaced by a deep sense of gratitude and joy. And the most lucky thing for him was that a suitable heart had been found. As Danieu slowly regained consciousness in the recovery room, tears of gratitude welled up in his eyes as he thought back to that magical dance. He knew that without the support and care of the hospital staff, he might not have made it to this moment of hope and healing.

It was finally his turn. Jack stood up slowly and edged towards the front, his hands trembling. His classmates looked on, ready to see what was in store for Jack. He stood there tongue-tied with his face turning pale. When he looked around the classroom, Katherine was just smiling at him encouragingly. So Jack took a deep breath and concentrated on his presentation. Words flowed from his lips, despite some pauses and repetitions. He even added gestures to better express himself. It seemed that confidence had found him.
When Jack finished his presentation, the room erupted into applause. The applause washed over Jack, and with it came a wave of confidence. His grateful eyes met Katherine’s, her smile now a symbol of his journey to self-assurance. No longer defined by his stutter, Jack felt a sense of belonging. His presentation wasn’t just an assignment; it was a testament to his ability to overcome personal obstacles. As the room quieted, Jack returned to his seat, his heart lighter, knowing that he had made a lasting impression on his classmates and himself.

I went home that day and set out to write a story. The inspiration for the story came from the encouraging moment when my friend urged me to write. I buried myself in writing it day and night. After editing my words for what seemed like a million times, I got the courage to submit it to a magazine I had subscribed to for years. After submitting my work, it was followed by a long and anxious wait. Sadly, several months passed, and I didn’t hear anything back. I was convinced my dream would never be fulfilled, and I was foolish to think otherwise.
One day after a year, I received an e-mail from the magazine. I couldn’t believe it! Finally, there was a contract for my review, and someone was willing to pay me for the use of my story. Imagine my excitement when, a couple of days later, another offer arrived by e-mail from a major book company! I truly felt as giddy as an eight-year-old girl by the end of the week. It’s hard to believe that a few simple words of advice and encouragement would lead me to achieving that dream—a dream that started in an elementary-school classroom with some construction paper and a yellow pencil.(共20张PPT)

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Rich Danieu, a man awaiting a heart transplant (移植), had to stay in Strong Hospital in Rochester, New York, since January. His days were filled with uncertainty, medical procedures, and a longing to be with his family. The slim hope of getting cured had almost driven Danieu’s mood down to the ground. He was close to giving up. What’s worse, he was frustrated at the thought of missing a crucial event: his 5-year-old daughter
Mara’s school’s father-daughter dance.
Shortly after Danieu’s arrival at the hospital, Mara had excitedly shared the news of her school’s upcoming father-daughter dance. She had been eagerly looking forward to her father’s participation. But Danieu’s illness had kept him away from his daughter’s joyous event. As the day of the dance drew near, Mara’s excitement began to be replaced by a deep sadness. “My daughter was a little upset, for I couldn’t go with her,” Danieu said to a nurse with a heavy heart.
Mara’s grandfather stepped in to take her to the dance, hoping to
make the evening special for her. They both got dressed up, arrived at the school hall, and even had a beautiful photo taken. However, for Mara, something was wrong, because she noticed everybody else was with their dads. Excitement gave way to disappointment. On their way home, Mara was walking silently, without saying a word, when her grandfather received a call from the hospital.
The nurses at Strong Hospital had been closely following the family’s story. Having witnessed what Danieu was experiencing due to missing such a crucial moment in his daughter’s life, they decided to do
something. They knew they couldn’t make a big change, but they could certainly create a moment of magic. On the night of the dance, with delicate care, they transformed an empty hospital room into a magical dance floor, complete with twinkling lights and soft music playing in the background.
At the same time, Danieu lay in his hospital bed, a sense of disappointment at his heart. When he was gazing out the window, a nurse came in with a warm smile.
