This can be hard to apply to aesthetic (审美的)judgments, which are subjective. Critics are constantly trying to have their definition of excellence become thenorm in their field. Book reviewers must work past offering a judgment of personal taste to producing an argumentto justify their evaluation.How was the research carried outThirty in-depth phone interviews were conducted with book reviewers who worked for large Americannewspapers. The interviews explored how reviewers determine what good fiction is and how they convey theirconclusions in their reviews.What did the research findIt found that there are four strategies book reviewers employ to maintain critical distance. Critics of subjectivetopics use approaches that are similar to ones used by those making judgment in scientific matters.1) Recognizing conflicts of interestBefore agreeing to take on a project, critics must assess if the relationship they have with the author couldaffect their evaluation. Critics are more concerned with giving unfair negative reviews than excessively positivereviews.2) Keeping independent judgmentReviewer s are conscious of factors that can affect their judgment. This includes reviews of the same bookwritten by other critics. Reading a review written by another critic might encourage a reviewer to change their ownevaluation to match the opinion of that critic, or intentionally write an opposite opinion just to seem different.3) ________Part of the authority that comes from a critic comes from their knowledge of literature. Critics recognize whatcharacteristics good fiction has and must be able to both recognize and quantify those qualities in a new book.4) Reflexive readingReviewers need to ensure that they are reading critically, and constantly questioning their responses to the text.They will read it once as a reader and then again as a critic. Critics said that their first response to a novel isemotional. After their initial reaction, however, critics must evaluate if their response was an indication of quality.How can you use this researchThis research helps shed light on how art reviews are created. It helps explain the processes that go intocreating fair and reasonable reviews of subjective subjects.21. What does the underlined word “autonomy” mean in the boxA. Freedom. B. Independence. C. Sensibility. D. Objectivity.22. Which of the following best completes the blanks aboveA. Evidence-based reviewing B. Authority-based evaluationC. Literary accomplishment D. Professional literary judgment23. What can be learned from the passage is that ________.A. approaches to scientific reviewing do not apply to reviews of literatureB. the research was carried out by professors through laboratory experimentsC. a book reviewer needs to read the book being reviewed at least twiceD. a reviewer’s personal taste is meant to be clearly reflected in their reviewsBIn a world that values speed, “Slow Reading” is becoming increasingly popular. Equipped with all kinds ofdigital devices, most of us get used to skimming online texts: we hunt for key words rapidly yet ignore the hiddenmeanings behind lines. Psychologists remind us that such reading habit damages our cognitive (认知的) patience,which refers to our capacity to analyze complicated thoughts for a long time.According to Dr. Wolf, our brains are not born to read. Unlike speech, reading is a skill the brain must learn.Digital reading encourages a “Fast-shaped” pattern, where we look for the main points and skip the rest.A recent study compared two groups of students. One group read a long story on an e-reader, while the secondgroup read the same story in a printed book. The result was telling: those who read the physical book had a muchbetter understanding of the plot’s timeline and emotional depth. It appears that the physical act of turning pagesserves as a support for the memory.However, the modern environment is designed to disrupt this focus. Constant notifications (通知) and the easeof clicking a new link prevent the brain from entering a state of “deep reading”. This prevents the reader frommaking personal connections with the text, leaving them with only a surface-level understanding of the information.To rediscover the joy of reading, experts suggest a “digital diet”. This involves setting aside thirty minutes aday to read a physical book without any electronic distractions. By slowing down, we allow our brains to rebuildthe neural pathways necessary for critical thinking and empathy. In the end, reading slowly is not about wastingtime, but about reclaiming our minds.24. What trouble does skimming online cause to readersA. The reliance on digital devices. B. The decline of reading efficiency.C. The absence of cognitive capacity. D. The decrease of deep thinking ability.25. What can we learn from the studyA. Long stories are unsuitable for e-readers.B. Digital devices can show a story’s emotions.C. Physical reading improves memory of stories.D. E-book readers have a clearer sense of time order.26. What do experts suggest to improve our reading abilityA. Scanning pages for more key words.B. Reading on e-readers more frequently.C. Spending more time on physical reading.D. Setting up more digital links for information.27. What is the best title for the textA. Slow Reading: Regain Control of Our MindsB. Skimming: A Popular Way of Digital ReadingC. Screen Reading: Barriers to Deep ComprehensionD. Digital Diet: A Method to Restore Reading AbilityCDigital technology, ranging from smartphones and laptops to learning apps and AI tools, can effectively assiststudents’ studies and daily lives. However, uncontrolled use produces numerous negative impacts. It distractsstudents’ attention, shortens sleep time, reduces physical activity and weakens independent learning skills.Importantly, these problems stem from improper usage rather than the technology itself.Unregulated technology use greatly lowers students’ learning efficiency and quality. Classroom distractionstands out as the most common issue. According to OECD’s PISA research, 30 percent of students get distracted bydigital devices during most math lessons, which leads to poorer academic performance. To make matters worse,many students depend heavily on online search results and AI answers. They abandon key steps for deep learning,including careful reading, independent thinking, problem analysis and mistake correction. As a result, althoughtheir homework appears finished, they fail to build solid, in-depth knowledge.According to a 2025 CDC (疾控中心) report, excessive screen time does great harm to teenagers’ physicaland mental health. Late-night gaming and social media use can seriously affect teenagers’ sleep. Meanwhile,prolonged screen use takes up time for outdoor sports, walking and daily exercise, leaving students in poor physicalcondition. In addition, social media exposes teenagers to peer comparison and the fear of missing out, causinginvisible mental pressure. A 2025 CDC analysis also proves that too much non-school screen time is closelyassociated with teenagers’ poor sleep, lack of exercise and negative mental states.Thankfully, students can avoid these risks by developing scientific daily routines. Before studying, they needto keep phones away from desks, turn off distracting notifications and use only essential digital tools. Beforebedtime, they should quit all online entertainment by a fixed time and charge their phones outside the bedroom. It isalso advisable to finish exercise and housework before enjoying screen time. Instead of rejecting technologycompletely, proper management enables technology to better support students’ learning and healthy growth.28. What does the word “unregulated” underlined in Paragraph 2 meanA. Unprotected. B. Unfinished. C. Uncontrolled. D. Unchanged.29. What can we infer from the 2025 CDC analysisA. Social media use reduces teenagers’ mental stress.B. Outdoor exercise removes screen-caused harms.C. Staying up late mainly leads to poor health.D. Off-school screen time brings about health problems.30. What is the author’s attitude towards digital technologyA. Objective. B. Supporting. C. Critical. D. Doubtful.31. What is the main idea of the textA. Long screen time harms teens’ bodies and minds.B. Proper digital use brings teens great benefits.C. Digital tools are widely used in teens’ study.D. Digital technology brings harm yet solutions exist.DA new study points to a key bone-strengthening mechanism at work in the body, which could be targeted totreat osteoporosis (骨质疏松).The study, led by researchers from the University of Leipzig in Germany and Shandong University in China,identified the cell receptor GPR133 as being crucial to bone density. Current treatments, such as calcium andvitamin D supplements or hormone therapies, can have side effects or limited long-term efficacy. The new researchsuggests GPR133 could be a drug target for a better solution. The team ran tests on mice in which GPR133 waseither absent or could be activated using a chemical called AP503. In experiments, in the absence of GPR133, themice showed weaker bones and lower bone mass, similar to osteoporosis. However, when the receptor was presentand activated by AP503, bone production and strength improved, significantly improving bone volume and strengtheven in an osteoporosis model.The new research suggests GPR133 could be a drug target for a better solution. GPR133 appears to regulatethe activity of osteoblasts — the cells that build new bone. When GPR133 is activated, it triggers (触发) a cellularsignaling pathway that promotes osteoblast function and bone mineralization. This means the receptor helpsaccelerate the process of bone remodeling, where old bone is replaced by new bone. The discovery that a newreceptor like GPR133 responds to mechanical forces, such as physical strain on bones, adds a new piece to thepuzzle of how bones adapt to stress. In essence, GPR133 acts as a sensor that, when stimulated, tells bone-buildingcells to get to work.If an equivalent therapy can be developed for humans, it could offer a way to increase bone mass and reducebreak risk without some of the drawbacks of existing drugs. The Leipzig team’s findings, published in a leadingscientific journal, mark a significant step toward treating bone loss diseases. As researchers continue to reveal therole of GPR133, there is renewed optimism that stronger bones in old age could become a reality for many.32. What happens to mice without GPR133A. Their bone volume rises rapidly. B. They suffer poor bone strength.C. Their bone production improved. D. They create AP503 inside bodies.33. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk aboutA. How GPR133 works to help rebuild bones.B. The specific functions of bone-building cells.C. The response of GPR133 to mechanical forces.D. How the physical forces affect our bone health.34. What do we know about the findingsA. They mainly explain age-related bone loss.B. They have provided patients with a safer treatment.C. They may lead to a promising way to treat bone loss.D. They replaced existing drugs to treat humans’ osteoporosis.35. Where is the text most probably taken fromA. A medical product review. B. A biology textbook.C. A handbook on bone protection. D. A health science article.第二节（共 5 小题；每小题 2.5 分，满分 12.5 分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Being healthy or leading a healthy lifestyle is more than just keeping yourself from falling sick.

They had enjoyed a quiet night camping beside the beach and planned tomarch to Chin Beach as their next stop. The trail was wet and muddy due to recent rains lasting for several days. Toavoid messy branches stretching across the track, Mark stepped off the marked path, thinking the smooth groundcovered with dead leaves ahead was firmer to walk on.Unexpectedly, his legs sank instantly into thick hidden clay covered by fallen leaves. Soon he was trapped upto his hips in the sticky mud pit (泥 潭 ). He took off his heavy backpack loaded with camping supplies andstruggled hard to pull himself free, yet every move only made him sink deeper into the cold mud. Sophia tried herbest to drag him out with trekking poles (登山杖), but she was far too weak to move his body a little. Worse still,there was no cell signal deep in the forest, leaving them unable to call for emergency help.Minutes passed and Mark began to shiver from cold and fear creeping over him. They shouted repeatedly atthe top of their voices, hoping passers-by would hear their desperate cries. Soon two hikers appeared and tried topull Mark backward with combined strength, but the clay held him tightly. They continued to cry for assistance foralmost an hour until they were exhausted to utter a single word.Cold wind swept through the woods as the sky gradually darkened. Mark felt hopeless, wondering if he couldget out before night fell and surrounded them with total darkness. Just then, a group of six hikers with rich outdoorexperience walked toward them.注意：1．续写词数应为 150 左右；2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。The experienced group quickly came up with a practical rescue plan.________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________Mark was close to escaping the mud pit after hours.____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________英语参考答案题号 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10答案 A B C C C B A A C B题号 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20答案 A C C C A A A C A B题号 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30答案 B A C D C C A C D A题号 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40答案 D B A C D C A D G B题号 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50答案 B D C B A D B C A B题号 51 52 53 54 55答案 D C B D A1.

But his notebooks, filled with his strangewriting, show that his main interests were in engineering and technology. The notebooks are full of drawings for allkinds of inventions. Born in 1452 to a Florentine lawyer and a local village girl, Leonardo was given only a verybasic education. After 10 years of being educated by artist Andrea del Verrocchio, he began to work for himself.The work he did shows an unbelievable combination of technical skill and very careful observation. It also showshis great interest in technology. At the age of 30, he left his hometown and moved to Milan, where he spent 17years working for the Duke of Milan. Here he continued to combine his scientific work with his painting. In 1506he returned to Milan and became increasingly interested in science. He began to study human bodies and themovement of the blood. He also studied many animals, comparing their bodies to human bodies. From then on,Leonardo spent the rest of his life mainly on his scientific studies.21. B 22. A 23. C 24. D 25. C 26. C 27. A 28. C 29. D 30. A 31. D32. B 33. A 34. C 35. D 36. C 37. A 38. D 39. G 40.

The experienced group quickly came up with a practical rescue plan. They laid waterproof mats on the mud andcrawled carefully toward Mark. One tied a rope around his waist while another extended a trekking pole for him togrip. At the count of three, they pulled steadily together. After several rounds of careful effort, Mark’s hips roseinch by inch and his legs were nearly freed, yet the thick clay still gripped his ankles tightly. They paused to adjusttheir strategy, and the group leader encouraged him to stay calm and trust their teamwork.Mark was close to escaping the mud pit after hours. With one final coordinated pull, his legs were completelyreleased from the sticky trap. Exhausted but safe, he leaned against a tree with a relieved smile. Sophia hugged himtightly, tears rolling down her cheeks. Mark thanked the group sincerely, admitting that even experienced hikerscan fall into unexpected danger. He also reflected that this frightening experience taught him a valuable lesson:never underestimate nature’s traps and always stay on the marked path. More importantly, he felt deeply gratefulfor the kindness of strangers, which turned a potential disaster into a life-changing memory.
