Here are some things you should try before you are 18.★Learn to swimSeriously, this is so important that it can save your life. If you can’t swim well, you won’t be able to dowater sports like waterskiing, surfing and diving. Even taking a boat trip will be dangerous for you. Make sure you do it.★Try at least one kind of team sportsBeing a good team player is an important skill in life. You can’t just think of yourself, but have to work well with other people. Other advantages of team sports like basketball, football and baseball are that they keep you fit and healthy, and they are also great fun. Teams usually have a good social life too—you’ll go to lots of parties and make many friends.★Collect somethingOne of the best hobbies for under-18s is collecting things. You could collect kinds of stamps, or you could collect things that make you remember what you have done, like cinema tickets for films you have seen or letters from friends. The best way to collect is to have a special album to put your collection in and to write what each thing means to you. That way you won’t forget.1. The most important reason for learning to swim is that ________.A. you might feel wellB. it can make you healthyC. you might easily do lots of thingsD. it can save your life2. The writer tells us that one of the best hobbies is to ________ .A. collect somethingB. do some water sportsC. send letters to your friendsD. play basketball with your friends23. The passage is mainly about ________before you are 18.A. good habits to keepB. skills to haveC. things to doD. sports to playBDragon boating is a team sport that has its root in ancient China. The boats are decorated with a dragon head and tail. In recent years cancer survivor groups have got involved in the sport to help make friends and help rebuild their lives.On a recent Saturday morning, a group of 20 women were on a boat in the Anacostia River in Washington DC. They moved their paddles(船桨)in rhythm to the call of a coach. The women belong to the dragon boat team GoPink! DC, which trains weekly. It also races against other breast cancer survivor teams in dragon boat festivals. As a result, GoPink! DC won medals in this Washington dragon boat festival.Lydia Collins joined five years ago after finding out she had breast cancer. “I was diagnosed with breast cancer.I was demoralized because of my illness - I lost all interest in life and wouldn't even get out of bed to eat. But now I love the team spirit. I just love everything about it. It is like a floating support group on the water.”The paddles are breast cancer survivors and their supporters. Annette Rothemel helped establish(建立)the group in 2006. She is a researcher with the National Institutes of Health as well as a breast cancer survivor. “It is sort of an easy entry sport because on the same boat people at different levels can be doing the same sport.” But Ms Rothemel saysdragon boating can be physically demanding, especially for someone who is sick and getting treatment for cancer.“It’s hard but I think you have to challenge yourself in life. This is something I look forward to. I get to be out here with my sisters and supporters that understand what I’m going through and help motivate me. So it makes me stronger and it makes me feel better,” another cancer survivor Rhonda Hartzel said.Annette Rothemel says the cancer survivors feel a sense of sisterhood and share good times when they paddle together. She says both feelings are treasured by the team.4. What do the underline wordsdemoralizedIn para.3 probably mean?A. depressedB. anxiousC. astonishedD. awkward5. What can we know about Lydia Collims from the text?A. she helps establish Go Pink !DCB. she tries to find a cure for the cancerC. she benefits from the dragon boat raceD. she gives up hope because of her illness6. How can the dragon boat race help the cancer survivorsA. forget their tough experiencesB. recover physically and mentallyC. get rid of the pains of their cancerD. enjoy their rest life without sufferings7. What does the text tell us about Annette Rothemel?A. she is an expert in studying the cause of the cancerB. she helps the cancer survivors in financial difficultiesC. she believes there is a healthful result from the dragon boat raceD. she thinks it unwise for the patient to join in the dragon boat raceCTo show empathy is to identify with another’s feelings. It is to emotionally put yourself in the place of another. The ability to empathize is directly dependent on your ability to feel your own feelings and identify them.If you have never felt a certain feeling, it will be hard for you to understand how another person is feeling. If you have never put your hand in a flame, you will not know the pain of fire. If you have not experienced jealousy, you will not understand its power.Readingabout a feeling and intellectually knowing about it is very different than actually experiencing it for yourself.Among those with an equal level of emotional intelligence, the person who has actually experienced the widest range and variety of feelings — the great depths of depression and the heights of fulfillment, for example, — is the one who is most able to empathize. On the other hand, when we say that someone “can’t relate” to other people, it is likely because they haven’t experienced, acknowledged or accepted many feelings of their own.Once you have felt discriminated against, for example, it is much easier to relate with someone else who has been discriminated against. Our innate emotional intelligence gives us the ability to quickly recall those instances and form associations when we encounter discrimination again. We then can use the “reliving” of those emotions to guide our thinking and actions. This is one of the ways nature slowly evolves towards a higher level of survival.For this process to work, the first step is that we must be able to experience our own emotions. This means we must be open to them and not distract ourselves from them or try to numb ourselves from our feelings through drugs, alcohol, etc.Next, we need to become aware of what we are actually feeling — to acknowledge, identify, and accept our feelings. Only then can we empathize with others. That is one reason why it is important to work on your own emotional awareness and sensitivity — in other words, to be “in touch with” your feelings.8. How does the author explain the feelings of empathy?A. By giving examples.B. By having classification.C. By making comparison.D. By providing data.9. Which statement may the author agree with?A. Low level of empathy leads to fewer varieties of feelings.B. The deeper one’s feelings are, the more empathetic one is.C. Empathy is a way we recently picked up for better survival.D. Rich experiences may not go with a high level of empathy.10. What’s the purpose of the last two paragraphs of the text?A. To advise a sincere attitude to one’s experiences.B To suggest a right understanding of empathy.C. To require a realbond with one’s emotions.D. To call for true acceptance of one’s feelings.11. What is the best title for the text?A. How Empathy UnfoldsB. Be Open to Your EmotionsC. Why Is Empathy ImportantD. Accept Your True SelfDZaki was small for his twelve years, and he was angry being treated as a child. Farid, his older brother, had been looked upon as a man long before he was Zaki’s age. Every day Farid and the other young Bahraini men went out in their wooden boats to dive for oysters (牡蛎). Many times Zaki begged to go along, but Faridalways refused to let him.So every day Zaki would go to the shallow water to practice. His grandfather, a former diver, would watch him and advise him. All morning, Zaki would practice diving beneath the waves. Every afternoon, again and again he would go underwater and hold his breath. With each day’s practice, his diving improved and he could hold his breath a little while longer. Soon Zaki felt as much at home in the water as he did out of it.Zaki rose early one day. He wanted to compete with his brother. They dived beneath the waves. Zaki opened his eyes and found himself looking into his brother’s face. Farid was smiling with confidence. Slowly, the smile was disappearing from Farid’s face. As more seconds passed, a worried look appeared on Farid’s face. Farid was realizing that Zaki could possibly beat him. Looking into Farid’s eyes, Zaki suddenly understood what losing could mean to his brother. Never would the villagers allow him to live it down. He would be laughed at by losing to a little child. Almost without thinking, Zaki kicked his feet and rose to the surface of the water a second before Farid’s head appeared beside him.The men around them cheered and patted Farid on the back. Farid, however, put his arm around Zaki’s shoulders. “Today,” Farid announced, “we shall have a new diver among us.” Then quietly, for Zaki’s ears alone, he said “Thank you, my brother.” And Zaki knew that they both had learned that it takes more than strength to makea man.12. What is the second paragraph mainly about?A. Zaki’s grandfather was a good diver.B. Zaki liked staying at home every day.C. Zaki practised hard in the water daily.D. Zaki’s grandfather encouraged him to dive.13. Which of the following best describes Zaki according to paragraph 3?A. Considerate.B. Ambitious.C. Confident.D. Adventurous.14. What can we infer from the last sentence of the text?A. Farid beat his little brother easily.B. Zaki was as strong as his brother.C. Zaki regretted losing the competition.D. Both Farid and Zaki had grown up.15. What is the best title for the text?A. Farid’s PrideB. Zaki’s ChallengeC. Brothers’ CompetitionD. Grandfather’s Advice第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10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。

I am writing to report the loss of my wallet.I clearly remember it was with me immediately I boarded the plane. However, on arrival in London Heathrow Airport, I found it gone. I guess it must have slipped out of my pocket during the flight. It is a black leather one with around 200 pounds, my ID card, and 2 credit cards in it.

He walked slowly and appeared to be in great pain. When he got to the front of the room, he stood directly in front of the little girl. Standing there for long enough, he said nothing but just held out his arms. His hands and arms were terribly scarred. The crowd uttered various opinions. Whereas no one spoke for the scarred man. The meeting chairman quieted everybody down and asked, “Tell us, little girl, will you go with this man and be his daughter?”.All eyes turned to the girl in disapproval. She looks up at him, her eyes brilliant with unwept tears. She rubbed her face and cried out, “This is the man who rescued me!” With a leap, she threw her arms around the man’s neck burying her face in his shoulder. She sobbed for a few moments, and then determinedly nodded a very big “yes” to the meeting chairman with a wide smile. All the people sincerely congratulated the girl’s choice, for they all understand that actions speak louder than words.。

Just like you like it.”At the meanwhile, Maria was already in position,armed with knife,fork,napkin and full glass of milk.Get started while it’s hot.Your father’s coming down in a minute.I told him to shave.Don’t want the bear I mean,the bushy black beard.”Okay,okay,”Maria’s dad said with a smile. Clean as a whistle.Just like you ordered.” Really?”Maria’s mom shrugged(耸肩).I think it’s fashionable,”Maria said,dipping a bite in some syrup(糖浆).Well,your old man is fashionable,”her dad said,moving his head the way he did when he wanted to look like a cool surfer man but looked more like an Egyptian robot. In fact,I was the most popular kid at my camp.”For the record,it was a science camp,”Maria’s mother reminded her,looking her straight in the eyes. In all seriousness,Maria,popularity is not important and finding the people who like you for you that’s what matters.”Your mom speaks the truth,Sugar,”said Maria’s dad,wiping his thick beard with a napkin. Just be yourself.You’ll definitely enjoy it.”24.What probably led to Maria’s hesitation to eat breakfast?A.The lack of adequate nutrition.B.The concern about feeling sick.C.The inviting smell of French toast.D.The worry about getting overweight.25.What is Maria’s attitude towards her father’s beard?A.Favorable.B.Disapproving.C.Concerned.D.Uncaring.26.Why did Maria’s mother remind her that her father went to a science camp?A.To advise Maria not to focus on popularity.B.To share her similar experience with Maria.C.To emphasize the importance of science to Maria.D.To persuade Maria not to discuss subjects except science.27.What is the best title for the text?A.Father’s beardB.A wonderful breakfastC.Family talk about a campD.Maria’s dream to be a big camperCSpending money on time⁃saving services reduces stress and boosts(增进)happiness,according to a new research,but shockingly,few of us do it.Whillans,a professor at HBS said, Buying time helps to protect us from the stress in our lives caused by time pressure,and the feeling that we don’t have enough minutes in the day to complete our tasks.”The effect was clearest in the Canadian experiment,in which60working adults were given$40to spend in two different ways.One weekend,they were told to spend the money on a material purchase a gift for themselves.The next weekend,they were instructed to spend the$40on anything that saved them time,from paying the neighbor’s kid to run errands(跑腿)to taking an Uber instead of a bus.英语试卷第5页(共8页)英语试卷第6页(共8页)On the day they made the time⁃saving purchase,they felt happier,in a better mood,and lower feelings of time stress than on the day they bought a material purchase,”said Whillans.The biggest surprise to the researchers was how few people would spend money on time⁃saving services.When they asked 98working adults how they would spend a windfall”of $40,only two percent named a purchase that would save them time.One reason,”said Whillans, is that we’re very bad at remembering how much we hate doing certain tasks once the suffering has passed.That makes us less likely to take active steps to avoid that overburdened feeling in the future.”But another possible cause is good old⁃fashioned guilt. If you feel guilty about getting someone to clean your house for you,then you might get less happiness from outsourcing (外包)that task,”said Whillans, or you might just be less likely to spend your money in that way.”28.In the Canadian experiment,the participants .A.were divided into two groupsB.were given $40every two weeksC.were asked to give money to a neighbor’s kidD.were asked to spend the money in different ways29.According to the author,what can make people less time⁃stressed?A.Paying much for a concert ticket.B.Taking a regular bus to get to work.C.Employing someone to clean the garden.D.Buying themselves an expensive present.30.When it comes to spending money on buying time”,.A.no people would like to do itB.a small percentage of people choose to do itC.more people will do it if extra money is givenD.most people like the idea but don’t practice it in life31.What do the underlined words that overburdened feeling”in Paragraph 6refer to?A.The good old⁃fashioned guilt.B.The feeling of spending money on goods.C.The stress of having someone clean your house.D.The discomfort when completing tasks we hate doing.DWe Brits love the idea of a real Christmas tree but not so many of us like the realities of dragging a 7ft Norway Spruce through the house and leaving needles all over the place.If you count yourself among the reluctant group,then it may be time to go fake (假的).After all,buying an artificial Christmas tree needn’t mean accepting defeat.There’s a huge range of options and sizes,including pre⁃lit trees,which will save you the frustration of trying to string your own lights.Another big bonus of choosing an artificial Christmas tree is cost:artificial trees can last for decades,so they work out cheaper than paying for a real tree every year.Like now retailers (零售商)are offering great deals at the moment:at Tesco,there’s 25percent off artificial Christmas trees.Meanwhile,you can take advantage of the current 3for 2offer at Argos to fill your house with not one,not two,but three.You may perhaps partner up with friends who are also looking to invest.Of course,keep your tree for years and years and it will start to pay you back in terms of carbon footprint;however,a real”one will always have to be transported,used and dealt with every year.Are there any downsides?Yes.You might think you’re saving the planet,but a fake tree is actually not an environmentally friendly option.Most are made in factories in Asia,resulting in some serious air miles to reach the UK.They’re made from metal and plastic,and many end their lives in landfill.Another problem with a fake tree is that they don’t look very natural and of course you won’t get that lovely pine smell either.You’ll also need to find space for storage.32.What does the underlined word reluctant”in paragraph 2probably mean?A.Passive.B.Related.C.Unwilling.D.Supportive.33.Which is the benefit of buying an artificial Christmas tree?A.Abundant choices.B.The lovely pine smell.C.Cheaper than a real one.D.Free for transportation.34.What can we learn from the passage?A.Fake Christmas trees are environmentally friendly.B.British people like to drag a real Christmas tree home.C.People need to find space to store a fake Christmas tree.D.People may get 3more if they buy two fake Christmas trees.35.What is the passage mainly about?A.Different reasons for choosing fake Christmas trees.B.Valuable suggestions on choosing fake Christmas trees.C.Efficient ways of saving money on choosing Christmas trees.D.Advantages and disadvantages of choosing fake Christmas trees.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项㊂选项中有两项为多余选项㊂Most people have practiced some form of hobby at a point in their lives,whether it is some form of sports,playing a musical instrument,creating art,cooking or something else.There are many different reasons and skills for taking up a hobby.Realize you have more time than you think.This is probably the one thing that keeps most people back from practicing a hobby. 36 But we waste so much time on social media,television commercials and worrying about life which we could have used to practice a hobby.Schedule some time for a hobby into your day.Plan ahead and just do it.Involve other people.Why?Well,have you ever noticed that you stick to something longer when you feel that you cannot let another person down?So,get

The winner of the road race at the Tokyo Olympics left the sport at the end of 2017 when she found herself out of contract (合同). She came into Tokyo without a professional team and left as an Olympic champion.The 30-year old began her cycling career in 2014 after running injuries that prevented her from continuing her pursuits of triathlon (铁人三项). She later joined a Catalan team and won the Spanish National Cup in 2016.The then-26 year old signedher first professional contract with Lotto Soudal Ladies for the following season. However, she ended her 2017 campaign in April and did not sign a contract for 2018, eventually taking a year off the bike. In 2019, Kiesenhofer came back to the sport as a rider, winning the Austrian national road race. Despite her results, Kiesenhofer sill had no professional contract while going into the Tokyo Olympics.Kiesenhofer was the first rider to attack in the Olympic road race, eventually forming a breakaway along with Carl Oberholzer, Omer Shapira, Vera Looser and Anna Plichta, which went on to reach a gap of 11 minutes. After Looser and Oberholzer were dropped, Kiesnhofer ataced her two remaining breakaway companions.After Shapira and Plichta were caught by the peloton (主车群), the rest of the riders seemed to believe that they were racing among themselves for Gold, not knowing that Remehofere was still in front. While it might be a misjudgment from the rest of the peloton that allowed Kiesenhofer to keep her lead of more than two minutes, other riders’ mistakes should not detract from the Austrian’s efforts.Off the bike the new Olympic Champion has a PhD in mathematics after studying at the Technical University of Vienne as well as at Cambridge University. She currently works at the University of Lausanne.4. Why did Anna give up triathlon?A. She got injured.B. She lost interest in it.C. She had to attend university.D. She never won a medal.5.

What is Anna’s present job?A. A cycling coach.B. A university teacher.C A professional rider. D. A college student.CA company called Neuralink has shared a video which appears to show a monkey playing a video game, but what makes the video even stranger is that themonkey is playing the video game with just its mind.Neuralink is a company owned by Elon Musk, which is working to develop devices that could allow people to control things using just their brains. The monkey in the video is called Pager, having special "Link" devices inside his brain. These devices are connected to 2,048 wires which lead to the parts of Pager's brain that control movements of the arms and hands.Scientists taught Pager to play a video game using a banana juice as a reward when he playedthe game correctly. Soon Pager was eager to play well in order to get more smoothie. At first, Pager controlled the video game using a joystick (操纵杆). But as Pager played, his Link devices wirelessly sent out information about the signals his brain was using to control his arms and hands. Neuralink's scientists recorded all of these signals.Then they used computers to match up the signals from Pager's brain to the movements that his hands were actually doing. This was challenging work and the scientists counted on artificial intelligence (AI) to help them decode (解码) Pager's brain signals.The next step was to have a computer make moves in the video game as if Pager had actually moved the joystick. If Pager thought about moving the joystick up, the computer would send an "up"signal to the video game. Thus Pager was able to play the video game using just his brain.When people are paralyzed (瘫痪的), it's often because the brain has lost the ability to send signals to nerves and muscles in certain parts of the body. Neuralink hopes that one day, its system will be ableto send thisinformation in a different way, allowing paralyzed people to use their arms or legs again.8. What does Neuralink aim to do?A. To make monkeys much smarter.B. To solve complex problems with monkeys.C. To create a device linking monkeys and people.D. To make people control things with their brains.9. How does the author introduce the process of the research?A. In order of time.B. By making a comparison.C. By giving examples.D. In order of space.10. What played an important role in the success of the research?A. The joystick.B. Artificial intelligence.C. The video game.D. The banana smoothie.11. Which is the most suitable title of the test?A. Neuralink Posts an Unusual VideoB. Disabled People Have a Bright FutureC. Monkey Plays Video Games with His MindD. Neuralink, a Creative and Competitive CompanyDA nurse has fulfilled (实现) a promise she made to her patient four years ago to one day attend her daughter's graduation from nursing school.Edina Habibovic, 22, graduated from Chamberlain University's College of Nursing in 2020.

Edina's graduation, ” said Sanja, who is a mother of three herself. She agreed.Due to COVID -19, there was no graduation or pinning ceremony.

Whileliving in Manhattan for some 15 years in the 1980s and early 1990s, Nannini only commuted (通勤) on the one train-given the subway system’s bad reputation. But after relocating to New Jersey for several years where subway is not an option, Nannini found that absence did make the heart grow fonder — maybe even for pizza rats. During her visit back to New York, Nannin i nodded, noticing improvements in the subway’s facilities.While Nannini was waiting for a train, a bench on the platform opposite caught her attention due to the ever changing faces and characters. They were people of different accents, colors and beliefs. They were from all walks of life, a diverse mix of New Yorkers all there for their own different reasons. Having learned the teenagers’ popular “End of the Line” challenge — boarding trains at random and riding them until their final destination; Nannin i decided to visit every first and last stop across the NY subway’s lines with her beloved camera.Nannini’s “End of the Line” experience saw her traveling some 665 miles across 26 routes in New York city. She took over 8,000 photos of the final stations, as well as the communities they served. In many cases, she rode the routes two or three times over to ensure she got “the shot”. “The project really shows me how important the subway is, and how sustainable it makes our lives,” she said“It’s often said t hat my photos show the end of the lines —the last stops,” she said. “But theend of the line is indeed the start for so many people. That made me think about who the people and the communities that live at the two ends are and what it is that the subway me ans to them.”Nannini was proud of her set of images directly challenging the traditions of story telling, which echoed boththe boredom and excitement of travel on tracks.Nannini enjoyed taking her time, starting her challenge in 2013 and only shooting the final photos last year. Her first monograph on the terminal stops of the NY subway was released in April 2023.“When you drive in the suburbs, you don’t have those encounters,” she continued. “People enter your life on the subway. That’s what strikes me most on my jouney on tracks.”4. How did Nannini find the New York subway during her revisit?A. It tumed out fine.B. It was depressing.C. It still held the same bad reputation.D. It would be her only commuting option.5. What is paragraph 2 mainly about?A. The diversity of New Yorkers’ daily life.B. The inspiration for Nannini’s subway shots.C. The popularity of “End of the Line” challenge.D. The challenges of Nannini’s job as a photographer.6. What can we infer from Nannini’s “End of the Line” experience?A. Her way of telling stories is traditional.B. She expressed sympathy for the subway riders.C. Her photography is highly expected by the encounters.D. She found life on tracks was more interesting than life on wheels.7. Which of the following is the best title for the text?A. “End of the Line” Challenge: A New Trend in NY SubwaysB. The Road Home: Rita Nannini’s Record of her Subway RideC. Last Stop to New Start: A Photographer’s Rediscovery of NY Su bwaysD. New Yorkers’ Routine: A Surprising Mixture of Boredom andExcitementCBANGKOK - The world is “failing” on a commitment to stop and reverse (彻底改变) deforestation by 2030, with global losses increasing last year, a group of NGOs and researchers warned Tuesday.In 2021, leaders from over 100 countries and territories -representing the vast majority of the world’s forests-promised to stop and reverse forest loss by 2030. But an annual assessment released Tuesday found global deforestation actually increased by four percent last year, and the world remains well off track to meet the 2030 commitment. “That 2030 goal is not just nice to have, it’s essential for maintaining a livable climate for humanity,” warned Erin Matson, a lead author of the Forest Declaration Assessment.Forests are not only key habitats for animal life but serve as important regulators of the global climate and carbon sponges that take in the emissions human activity generates. However, deforestation last year was over 20 percent higher than it should have been to meet the leaders’ commitment, with 6.6 million hectares of forest lost, much of it primary forest in tropical regions.“Data year over year does tend to shift. So one year is not the be-all, end-all,” said Matson. “But wh at is really important is the trend. And since the baseline of 2018 to 2020, we’re going in the wrong direction.”The assessment was not universally depressing, with about 50 countries considered on course to end deforestation. In particular, Brazil, Indon esia and Malaysia saw “dramatic reductions” in forest loss. Those gainsare at risk however, the report warns. In Brazil, for instance, while there has been renewed interest in protecting the Amazon, another key ecosystem - the Cerrado savannah - has instead become a target.The report praised new rules introduced by the European Union intended to block the imports of commodities(商品) that drive deforestation. But it called for stronger global action, including more money to conserve forests, and the end of subsidies to sectors like agriculture that drive deforestation.“The world is failing forests with disastrous consequences on a global scale,” said Fran Price, WWF’s global forest lead. “Since the global commitment was mad e, an area of tropical forest the size of Denmark has been lost. We want to see nature and forest high on the agenda!”8. What does the assessment indicate?A. Tough policies should be introduced.B. Deforestation is intensifying.C. Commitment should be taken seriously.D. Global warming is worsening.9. How do you understand the underlined sentence by Matson?A. It is normal that data changes sharply.B. The assessment is far from accurate.C. Emphasis should be put on the trend.D. To have a clear goal in place matters.10. What are paragraphs 5 and 6 meant to tell us?A. The widespread damage to forests.B. Proper measures yet-to-be-taken.C. The ban on nature-related products.D. Some bright sides of the situation.11. What did Price want to convey?A. Forest conservation is a priority.B. Forest restoration is a long-term project.C. Forest destruction is just regional.D. Forest assessment should be globalized.DContrary to the commonly-held view, the brain does not have the ability to rewire itself to make up for the loss of sight, or a stroke, for example, say scientists from the University of Cambridge and Johns Hopkins University.Writing in eLife, Professors Tamar Makin (Cambridge)and John Krakauer (Johns Hopkins) argue that the belief that the brain, in response to injury or deficit, can reorganise itself and repurpose particular regions for new functions, is fundamentally incorrect-despite being commonly cited in scientific textbooks. Instead, they argue that what is occurring is merely the brain being trained to use already existing but possible abilities.In their article, Makin and Krakauer look at ten pioneering studies that aim to show the brain’s ability to reorganise. They argue, however, that while the studies do indeed show the brain’s ability to adapt to change, it is not creating new functions in previously unrelated areas—instead it’s using possible capacities that have been present since birth.Examining other studies, Makin and Krakauer found no convincing evidence that the visual cortex (大脑皮层)of individuals that were born blind or the uninjured cortex of stroke survivors ever developed a novel functional ability that did not otherwise exist.Understanding the true nature and limits of brain plasticity (可塑性) is crucial, both for setting realistic expectations for patients and for guiding clinical practitioners (从业人员) in their reconstructive approaches, they argue. Makin added: “This learning process is a proof of the brain’s remarkable—but limited—capacity for plasticity. There are no shortcuts or fast tracks in this journey. The idea of quickly unlocking hidden brain potentials or tapping into vast unused reserves is more wishful thinking than reality. It’s a slow, gradual journey,demanding persistent effort and practice. Recognising this helps us appreciate the hard work behind every story of recovery and adapt our strategies accordingly.”“So many times, the brain’s ability to rewire has been described as ‘miraculous’—but we’re scientists, w e don’t believe in magic. These amazing behaviours that we see are rooted in hard work, repetition and training, not the magical reassignment of the brain’s resources.” They said.12. What is a common misunderstanding of the brain’s function?A. The brain can be trained.B. The brain can compensate-blindness.C. The brain can rewire itself.D. The brain can react to sudden diseases.13. Why are the related studies mentioned in the text?A. To tell the limits of brain plasticity.B. To analyze the structure of the brain.C. To find productive research methods.D. To explore the new functions of the brain.14. What is Paragraph 5 mainly about?A. The realistic expectations for patients.B. Supporting evidence for the research results.C. Further explanations of the medical strategies.D. The medical significance of the new finding.15. What will Makin and Krakauer suggest people do?A. Make the impossible possible.B. Reassign the brain’s resources flexibly.C. Try to develop the brain’s possible ability.D. Use the magic to accomplish difficult tasks.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。
