In thery, cming up with a fair divisin f husewrk shuld be simple: Take all the tasks and divide them equally between tw partners. In practice, it’s mre cmplicated. A new study cmplicates the picture f cuples’(dis) satisfactin with hw they split up chres: It fund that men and wmen in lng-term partnerships tend t be happier with their relatinship when they share respnsibility fr each chre n their t-d list, as ppsed t when each partner has their wn set f tasks.
In ne data set, Carlsn, the authr f the study, fund that cuples wh managed each chre jintly were twice as likely t say that their divisin f labr was fair as cuples wh assigned chres t ne partner r anther— even thugh bth grups split the verall wrklad mre r less equally.
T be clear, these findings dn’t necessarily mean that a certain chre distributin caused cuples t becme happier — cuples that are happier and mre cperative may be mre likely t share respnsibilities fr every chre in the first place. That said, if the chre distributin is what matters, maybe the explanatin is that sharing respnsibilities builds a spirit f teamwrk, r encurages cuples t cmmunicate better.
A “grass is greener” effect culd als be at play; if yu never have t fld the laundry, that task may start t seem mre tlerable than the pile f dirty dishes yu’re abut t wrk thrugh. Yet there’s anther pssibility: there might be smething abut really understanding all the wrk in the hme that makes peple appreciate their partner and what they’re ding mre deeply. Melissa Milkie, a scilgist at the University f Trnt wh wasn’t invlved in the study, tld me, “If yu’re the partner that never cleans the bathrm, yu might nt realize hw much energy it takes.”
24．What d we knw abut husewrk divisin frm the first paragraph?
A．Dividing tasks cuts cnflict.
B．Separate tasks lift happiness.
C．Sharing each chre brings jy.
D．Equal wrklad brings fairness.
25．What des the “grass is greener” effect suggest abut chres?
A．Cuples envy thers’ respnsibilities.
B．Unassigned tasks seem less burdensme.
C．Partners avid disliked tasks intentinally.
D．All chres feel equally difficult ver time.
26．What des Milkie imply abut separating chres?
A．It may take mre physical energy.
B．It may prmte husehld efficiency.
C．It may lead t underestimating partners’ wrk.
D．It may deepen understanding between partners.
27．What is the main purpse f the text?
A．T advcate a new chre divisin mdel.
B．T analyze the reasns fr sharing chres.
C．T criticize the unfair divisin f chres.
D．T explain cuples’ feeling f chre divisin.
Zhang Xuefeng, China’s mst famus educatin influencer, died suddenly at age 41 n Tuesday due t cardiac arrest. Knwn fr his ruthlessly blunt advice n hw t win in China’s educatinal rat race, he had built a massive fllwing ver nearly a decade. His signature rapid-fire, snark-infused patter first sht him t fame in 2016 with a vide summarizing China’s tp 34 universities in seven minutes. Frm there, he launched a cnsulting cmpany, charging thusands f dllars fr curses that helped students chse majrs, internships, and careers based n cld-eyed calculatins f test scres, family backgrunds, and whether they priritized mney r stability.
T his detractrs, Zhang was cynical and utilitarian. But t his tens f millins f fans — especially thse frm less privileged backgrunds — he embdied a rare willingness t speak harsh truths. ‌“I cme frm an rdinary family,” he nce wrte. ‌“If yu cme frm a wealthy family, yu have mre chices. But mst families aren’t that well-ff, s when chsing a majr, yu have t chse ne that puts fd n the table.” The liberal arts? Only gd fr service jbs, he declared. Finance? Dn’t bther unless yur family has cnnectins. His 2023 cmment that parents shuld knck their children uncnscius rather than let them study jurnalism sparked days f nline debate. Critics said he misunderstd the pint f educatin. His fans nly grew mre devted. As ne Shanghai-based utlet nted, ‌“The cmment sectin is dminated by ne vice: The pr need Zhang Xuefeng.”
But Zhang had recently landed in truble. In September, his scial media accunts were blcked during a campaign by China’s cyberspace administratin t eliminate what it called ‌“excessively pessimistic” sentiment. Sme bservers speculated his true ffense was speaking bluntly abut yung peple’s ecnmic anxieties at a time when the gvernment was trying t hide high yuth unemplyment rates. He recvered his accunts a mnth later and returned t streaming multiple times a week. The mrning he died, he did a bradcast, then went fr a run — as was his habit.
His death prmpted an utpuring nt nly f shck but als f reflectin acrss Chinese scial media. One ppular hashtag asked: Had he steered yung Chinese t better lives r discuraged their idealism? Anther, ‌“Excessive self-discipline,” emerged in respnse t reprts that he had cllapsed after running. A fellw influencer, Zhu Wei, psted a tribute but als ffered a sbering warning: ‌“The cruelest thing abut the age f internet traffic is that nthing lasts even a mnth befre it’s frgtten. Everyne will sn g back t their usual state, endlessly striving and slgging, never able t stp.”
28．Accrding t the passage, what was the primary reasn fr Zhang Xuefeng’s ppularity amng less privileged students?
A．He ffered free cnsulting services t students frm rdinary families.
B．He was knwn fr telling harsh truths abut hw t succeed despite inequality.
C．He criticized the gvernment’s educatin plicies n scial media platfrms.
D．He encuraged students t pursue liberal arts degrees regardless f jb prspects.
29．The phrase ‌“cld-eyed calculatins” (paragraph 1) mst nearly means ________.
A．emtinal and impulsive decisin-making based n persnal passin.
B．mathematical analysis f statistical data regarding emplyment rates.
C．realistic and unemtinal evaluatins f practical factrs and utcmes.
D．pessimistic assumptins abut ne’s future regardless f ne’s backgrund.
30．Why des the authr include Zhu Wei’s qute abut ‌“nthing lasts even a mnth befre it’s frgtten”?
A．T argue that Zhang’s influence was never truly significant.
B．T suggest that public attentin is shrt-lived and sciety quickly returns t ld habits.
C．T criticize the gvernment fr blcking Zhang’s scial media accunts.
D．T prve that educatinal influencers have n real impact n students’ lives.
31．Which f the fllwing statements abut Zhang Xuefeng can be inferred frm the passage?
A．His blunt remarks abut jurnalism ultimately caused him t lse mst f his fans.
B．He was punished by the cyberspace administratin slely fr his views n Taiwan.
C．His death led many yung Chinese t cmpletely abandn their pursuit f success.
D．His apprach t educatin cnsulting reflected a utilitarian rather than idealistic philsphy.
Since Francis Galtn cined the phrase “nature vs nurture (环境因素)” 150 years ag, the debate abut what makes us wh we are has dminated the human sciences.
Tday, hwever, a new scientific field is set t reshape the debate — nt by declaring victry fr ne side r the ther, nr even by calling a tie, but rather by revealing they were never in ppsitin in the first place. Thrugh this new perspective, nature and nurture are nt even entirely distinguishable, because genes and envirnment dn’t perate in islatin; they influence each ther and t a very real degree even create each ther.
The new field is called scigenmics, an integratin f behaviral science and genetics. Despite being a relatively new area f study, it has the ptential t rewrite a great deal f what we think we knw abut wh we are and hw we gt that way.
Genes dn’t affect wh we becme just n their wn, inside ur bdies — they wrk, in part, by shaping the envirnments we lk fr r prduce. At ther times, the nature-nurture feedback circle may be mre pernicius. It’s n surprise that terrible setbacks — the lss f a jb, the end f a marriage — can cause peple t fall int depressin. I was astnished t learn, hwever, that peple with a high genetic tendency fr depressin are mre likely t encunter these setbacks, which in turn cntribute t their depressin. That’s nt t say that any f it is their fault, just that the way we’re supprted and the wrld we pilt are clsely linked.
Here is the part f this research that really blws me away. The research suggests that yur partner’s genes influence yur likelihd f depressin almst a third as much as yur wn genes d. It als shws when a small number f students with a genetic tendency t smke are present in a high schl, smking rates can rise rapidly acrss an entire grade — even amng thse students wh didn’t persnally knw thse classmates.
Genes alne aren’t enugh t determine these utcmes and neither is envirnment. Nature and nurture bth shape each ther, with nature influencing the way we experience nurture and nurture influencing the way ur nature expresses itself. The mre pprtunities and infrmatin the envirnment prvides — the mre varied envirnments becme — the greater the influence that genetic variatin has in srting us int different categries.
Nature and nurture aren’t separate frces — they’re endlessly circling back n each ther.
32．Prir t the emergence f scigenmics, it was widely believed that ________.
A．genes and envirnment functined separately
B．there was n clear line between nature and nurture
C．envirnment shaped ur perceptin f wh we are
D．nature mattered mre than nurture fr persnal grwth
33．The underlined wrd “pernicius” (paragraph 4) is clsest in meaning t “________”.
A．disastrusB．generativeC．pintlessD．questinable
34．It can be inferred that the research shcked the writer by suggesting that ________.
A．ur genes may change because f the peple we live with
B．nature determines ur behaviur just as much as nurture des
C．peple with the same genes are mre likely t interact with each ther
D．the genes f peple arund us can affect the envirnment we experience
35．Which f the fllwing pictures crrectly illustrates hw nature and nurture make us wh we are?
A．B．C．D．
Human histry culd be tld as the stry f seeing. Each inventin that sharpened ur visin extended the reach f perceptin and redrew the brders f the knwn. When a Dutch craftsman fitted tw lenses (镜片) int a tube in 1608, he did nt simply enlarge distant bjects; he expanded the human mind. Frm that mment, bservatin stpped t be passive. 36
As centuries unflded, the instruments f bservatin multiplied: micrscpes, cameras, telescpes, sensrs, and finally, algrithms. Each revealed a new layer f reality — the infinitesimal cell, the atm, the DNA helix, the universe. 37 T see was t knw; T measure was t exist. Observatin drew the utlines f science, yet it als defined ur sense f self, fr every discvery beynd the human scale reminded us hw small we are.
38 The internet made bservers f everyne, yet it als made us bservable. The gaze (注视) turned inward and utward at nce: we became data pints, recrding and being recrded in the same instant. 39 The system extends frm the depths f space t the finest details f a face.
And nw, machines have begun t see fr us. Satellites watch the weather; neural netwrks watch the wrld. They identify patterns invisible t human eyes — the mvements f universe, the signatures f disease, the habits f a city. 40
The universe may be infinite, but s t is the human desire t understand what it means t lk.
A．Seeing is n lnger believing.
B．We n lnger merely lked — we searched.
C．The act f lking became bth a discipline and a philsphy.
D．The ultimate hrizn f bservatin is ut there amng the stars.
E．The 20th century transfrmed the act f lking int a netwrked activity.
F．Observatin, nce an act f curisity, has becme cntinuus, all-arund, and autnmus.
G．The telescpe’s lens and the smartphne’s camera are nw part f the same glbal system f seeing.

Wh, r what, d yu trust?
Every day, we turn t the internet t 41 : shuld we stay at that htel, eat at this restaurant, ride with that driver? We have becme s used t the large-scale insights prvided by 42 , many f us wuldn’t even buy a taster withut first checking reviews. Their accessibility and apparent authrity mean that simply picking an appliance at randm is almst 43 — why wuldn’t yu ask Ggle first? And yet, when it cmes t many mre fundamental chices — like what we chse t study — we ften trust ur instincts. This, argues ecnmist Seth Davidwitz, is where we are ging wrng. 44 , fllwing ur instincts can lead us t act n hidden prejudices r t keep fllwing dead-end paths.
In his new bk Dn’t Trust Yur Gut: Using data instead f instinct t make better chices, Seth Davidwitz brings tgether “credible answers t 45 questins” as revealed by vast nline data, s we can apply them in rder t be mre successful and happier. “While we ften think we knw hw t better urselves, the numbers, it turns ut, 46 ,” he writes.
Sme findings are indeed 47 , ging against cmmn belief — fr example, the verstated advantage f yuth in starting a business. Others, hwever, may be mre 48 expectatins: we ften verestimate the pleasure f passive activities such as snacking and watching TV. Research by the Lndn Schl f Ecnmics fund that even relaxing tends t make peple feel less 49 than anticipated. On the ther hand, we underestimate the 50 t ur md frm visiting museums r libraries.
Frm wrk t relatinships, Seth Davidwitz lks t the data fr 51 n key decisins and, where pssible, tries it ut fr himself. In his bk he writes that he used AI, market research and statistical analysis — putting mre than 100 edited images f himself int an nline survey — t find ut that peple generally prefer him with glasses and a beard. Thugh entertaining, his bk is mst 52 when it challenges ppular assumptins and demnstrates what wrks best fr mst peple, s that all f us might learn frm their example.
But his smewhat idealist view f data may create a 53 with a wrld already transfrmed by it. 54 may nt lie, as Seth Davidwitz writes — but nr d they reveal the cmplete, cmplex picture, especially when they are cntrlled by crprate interests. When ur 55 is already being shaped by data in ways f which we aren’t aware, perhaps success isn’t always a matter f making the right decisin.
41．A．make decisinsB．express pininsC．gain knwledgeD．achieve success
42．A．experienceB．freedmC．technlgyD．pwer
43．A．rewardingB．exhaustingC．effrtlessD．unthinkable
44．A．By cntrastB．After allC．Even sD．In shrt
45．A．imprtantB．bviusC．factualD．uncmfrtable
46．A．remainB．disagreeC．apprveD．vary
47．A．misleadingB．riginalC．surprisingD．experimental
48．A．dependent nB．beneficial tC．cnsistent withD．strict abut
49．A．attentiveB．cnfusedC．cnfidentD．happy

Catherine the Great set ut t define Russia as an extremely imprtant pwer in Eurpe. Her rule remained stable 56 the year f 1768, when smething began t threaten her peple and her psitin — an ancient disease named smallpx.
By the 18th century, smallpx 57 (becme) particularly deadly. One in five peple wh caught it died. It was particularly dangerus fr children, s parents wuld be advised nt t cunt their children unless they survived smallpx. There was abslutely 58 that culd be dne. Peple tried keeping patients ht 59 (sweat) the disease ut r even bleeding them, neither f which did any gd.
Since the 16th century, there had been inculatin 60 (practise) widely in China, the Middle East and Turkey. It invlved a persn being given a cntrlled dse (剂量) f the disease. A tiny drp f pus (脓液) frm the spts f smene with the disease 61 (cllect). Then the live virus was put int a cut n the arm f the healthy persn.
In 1767, a British dctr named Dinsdale published an instructin manual and intrduced his way t inculate safely. And that’s 62 he came t the attentin f Catherine the Great. In the 1760s, inculatin wasn’t a cmmn practice in Russia, a land 63 there was “enrmus distrust” against it. Catherine made the brave decisin t experiment with treatment first. She put her faith in science and her life in the hands f Dinsdale, 64 (call) fr him in 1768 t treat her and her family.
Catherine’s inculatin went s well that her experience encuraged her peple t get inculated, t. Indeed, her first experiment demnstrated great reslutin and firmness f her mind. T her peple, she prjected an image f herself 65 a caring ruler. She was remembered fr advancing public health in Russia and saving millins f lives.

67．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。
One day in the early 1980s in Pennsylvania, a truck stpped in the parking lt with a lad f ld typewriters (打字机) frm arund the glbe fr sale. David stpped by and fund a large metal disc (圆盘) very special. It weighed arund 30 punds and measured abut 30 inches acrss, cvered in thusands f precisely designed Chinese characters. It was nthing like anything he had ever seen befre, yet David knew fr sure it was part f a Chinese typewriter. He ffered $17 — all the cash in his wallet — and rlled the disc t his car. Back hme, he kept the belved cllectin in a wrkshp amng tls, car parts and petry magazines.
Last summer, the lcal library was planning an exhibitin f histric typewriters. David remembered his disc and tk it t cnsult Kathryn Dilln, a technician at the library. Dilln thught it was s beautiful and s unusual but she knew little abut it. She realized it needed t be figured ut. S she sent phts f the disc t Tm Mullaney, a prfessr and histrian in Stanfrd University.
It was a shcking mment fr Mullaney when he saw the pictures, because he knew it was the key part f the first Chinese typewriter, MingKwai. Mullaney nce wrte a bk n the MingKwai s he knew the stry f it quite well.
The MingKwai, meaning “clear and fast” in Chinese, was prf f a far mre elegant pssibility. Prduced in 1947, it had nly 72 keys. The typewriter’s inventr was the well-knwn Chinese writer, translatr and linguist Lin Yutang. Fr sme reasns, the MingKwai was never mass-prduced. The MingKwai simply disappeared, but its significance lived n. It’s the great-great parent f the entire Chinese digital age, at least in terms f human-cmputer interactin. Nw that the key part f the first Chinese typewriter was rediscvered, Mullaney wuldn’t let it disappear again. He respnded at nce.

Knwing the disc was n display in the library, Mullaney immediately went there.

【原文】M: Hw did yu becme a weather frecaster, and when did yu start ding TV frecasts?
W: Well, I studied physics fr fur years at university, then spent six mnths n a weather training curse.

JUST SPEAK CONFIDENTLY
I firmly believe there is n need t learn freign accents when practicing ral English. The mst imprtant thing fr speaking is t make urselves understd clearly, and a slight lcal accent will never blck effective cmmunicatin, while cnfidence is the key t fluent speaking
I nce wasted lts f time cpying American accents, which made me s nervus that I ften stuttered in cnversatins. Later, I gave up blind imitatin and fcused n expressing myself cnfidently. My freign teacher said my talks became much mre natural and smth. S speaking with cnfidence is far mre imprtant than chasing a perfect freign accent.
