Holding it in my hand made me think about thoseprecious memories of childhood, which my kids will never know firsthand.My handiwork wasn't beautiful. But what I remember is the beauty of the offering: slippingsomething into a friend's hand and knowing it would always be with them.The experience wasintoxicating; physical and concrete,like the serious business of exchanging wedding rings, itwas a symbol of an unbreakable bond. Those bracelets represented how much we meant to eachother, at a time when our friends were becoming the center of our lives.I slept with my bracelets and showered with them. I wore them all summer long at camp.And I acquired new bracelets from friends therefriends who received carefully craftedbracelets from me in return, as we said our tearful end-of-summer goodbyes. I thought havingthem helped ease the pain of leaving my friends. But now I see that they were really helping meto leave behind childhood.My kids don't go to summer camp.They certainly don't exchange anything as uncool asbracelets with their friends. They hang out on Discord （种聊天软件）in chats that only pausebut never end. Our eldest son endlessly texts on his cellphone as he and his friends make oneanother talking emojis and TikTok videos.Their relationships with their phones leave no time or space for writing letters or makingbracelets, and their gifts to one another leave no clear and definite traces. There will be no boxesof letters to sort years from now nor any hidden bracelets to find. They will have little tophysically hold on to.24.

They represented both the author and her kids' unforgettable childhood.C.They gave meaning to the author's childhood in a way her kids will never know.D. They recalled the author's deep sorrow of leaving close friends at summer camp.CParenting techniques may have long lasting consequences for behavior-even when itcomes to dogs.Researchers at the University of Pennsylvania studied the early development, parenting andthe following performance of 98 puppies who underwent guide dog training. Dogs who receivedmore independence and less support from their mothers were more likely to be successful inbecoming a guide dog. The study was published Monday in the journal Proceedings of theNational Academy of Sciences.Mom-pup interactions were used to define how highly involved the puppy's mothers were.Puppies raised with highly involved mothers were more likely to be released-or dropped outfrom the guide dog program- compared to those with less attentive mothers.“Too much of a good thing can be a bad thing,"said lead study researcher Emily Bray.Although the study couldn't definitely point to what was driving this effect/'one possibility isthat the dogs that are having overbearing （专横的）mothers are never given the chance to dealwith small challenges on their own, and is harmful to their later behavior and outcome in theirproblem solving.Another possibility is that the puppies for whom the mothers are always aroundare also the most anxious or stressed," she explained.“What I was happy about was that there is a study being done about early life experiences indogs," another researcher Dolores Hoile said. "If the mom is trying to protect her pups againstsmall challenges, then they will not be suited for the big challenges."The study included three breeds（品种）:German shepherds, Labrador retrievers and Goldenretrievers. The puppies were followed from the first weeks of life for several years. lnterestingly,Labrador retrievers tended to wash out from the program, while Golden retrievers tended tosucceed.As for whether the findings can be applied to human babies of so-called,'helicopterparents/" Bray was hesitant.zzl think people can draw parallels （相似之处）,but I think you also have to be carefulbecause they are different species/'she said.She added, "The nice thing about dogs is that they are a lot less complicated than humans."28. What makes successful guide dogs according to the study?A. Less attentive owners.B. More practical training.C.Less supportive mothers.D. More tense environment.29. What does Paragraph 4 mainly talk about?A. The necessity of mom-pup interactions.B. Some characteristics of good guide dogs.C. The significance of high parental involvement.D.Potential causes of some puppies' poor performance.30. What can we know about Labrador retrievers in the study?A. They choose to stay.B.They fail to be qualified.C.They rise to challenges.D. They are easy to notice.31.Which can be a suitable title for the text?A.Parenting techniques can apply to guide dogsB. Guide dogs are less complicated than humansC.Researchers help raise public awareness of blind peopleD. A study is done about early life experiences of human babiesDThe"little voice in your head"" can be your worst critic and greatest supporter. It's beenknown to help with directions, give advice, and even remind you to put potatoes on the grocerylist.But does everyone have an inner monologue（独白）？ For a long time, it was assumed that aninner voice was simply part of being human. But it turns out,that's not the case-not everyoneprocesses life in words and sentences."By inner monologue, we mean that we can have private speech that's addressed toourselves and that is carried out without any sound/' said Helene Levenbruck, a senior neurolinguistics researcher at CNRS.With true inner speech, you almost"hear" your inner voice, she told Live Science.You'reaware of its tone and intonation （语调）.For example, the voice can "sound" angry or worried.This long-held assumption was first challenged in the late 1990s by Russell Hurlburt, apsychologist at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas.Hurlburt studied participantsinner speechby asking them to wear a beeper （传呼机）.Whenever the device beeped, they had to write downwhat they were thinking or experiencing in their mind just before the sound.Perhaps the participant wrote down, "I need to buy some bread." He would then ask if that'swhat they actually thought.HOr did you think ' bread'? Or were you hungry?" Lcevenbruckexplained. After several meetings, participants got better at articulating（流利连贯地 表达）theirtrue thoughts, she said. Eventually, this method revealed that some people had inner speech everytime the device beeped. But others had less inner speech than usual, and some didn't have innerspeech at all. They experienced images, sensations and emotions, but not a voice or words.The lack of an inner monologue has been linked to a condition called aphantasia（心盲症）一 sometimes called u blindness of the mind's eye."People who experience aphantasia can'tmentally picture their bedroom or their mother's face. Many times, those who don't experiencevisualizations don't experience clear inner speech, either, Lcevenbruck noted.32. What was previously assumed about the inner monologue?A. It rarely existed in humans.B. It could help solve all kinds of problems.C. It was something everyone was born with.D. It was mainly displayed in the form of writing.33. What does Loevenbruck say about an inner monologue?A. It lacks tone and intonation.B. It is delivered in public.C. It can be heard by others.D. It can convey emotions.34. What did Hurlburt do in his study?A. He used a beeper to note down participants1 inner speech.B. He required participants to describe their grocery lists.C. He checked participants' notes and asked about their true thoughts.D. He placed something in participants' heads to record their inner speech.35. Why do some people never experience an inner monologue?A. They suffer serious brain damage.B. They cannot distinguish what they see.C. They misunderstand their true thoughts.D. They fail to mentally picture what they see.第二节（共5小题;每小题分，满分分）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,选项中有两项为多余选项。we are all social emotional beings andthroughout our lives,we will continue to shape ourbehaviors and relationships.
