Guinness World Records is a globally recognized collection of the most incredible, extreme, and unique records from all corners of the world.
1．The Most Tattoos (纹身) on a Living Person
Lucky Diamond Rich from New Zealand holds the record. His entire body, including his eyelids, ears, and even the inside of his mouth, is covered in tattoos. His body art is a complex and extensive collection of various designs, which took years to complete.

This record is all about festive fun. In various attempts around the world, thousands of people come together, all dressed in traditional Santa Claus outfits.

This record is a testament to human endurance and engineering innovation.

About 6 months ago, I joined a gym. Every morning, there is one personal trainer there that works out. Meanwhile, my little group do our workout. He does his routine with such a quiet determination that he makes it all look very easy, although I know how hard he is working.
A couple of weeks ago, I was watching him do chin ups. I broke away from my group and asked him if I could try a chin-up. I had never tried it before. He eagerly stepped aside and encouraged me to step up to the bar. I pulled myself up without thinking. Once… then twice. That was all I had in me, I having no strength left. I told him that was all I had, so he stepped up behind me and pushed me up for a third and fourth “poll”. A burst of content sweeping over me. I felt strong and good. The next day when I was doing my workout, I asked him to assist me again. Again, I did two. Again on day three. I thought it was disappointing that I could only do two, but when I finished my workout in the gym on day four, he was standing there just waving his hand at me. When I asked him what was up, he said he was impressed with my chin ups. He explained that most people couldn’t do them at all, and that he was impressed by what I could. He further told me that if I practiced every day, I would be doing 5 or 6 in no time. At this point I should probably add that I am 50 years old… and female.
I have a new approach now. I have experienced first hand how good it feels to rush in so innocently. To trust that we can do it and go on to accomplish exactly what we set out to do, as no one tells us we can’t. I’ve learned how crucial it is to support others and ourselves in our attempts and to let them know that we believe they can do it rather than telling them we think that they can’t.
4. How did the author feel after trying her first chin ups
A. Satisfied. B. Regretful. C. Relieved. D. Ashamed.
5. Why did the trainer wave his hand at the author
A. Because he was concerned about her health.
B. Because she made an appointment with him.
C. Because she did what most people couldn’t do.
D. Because he felt like pointing out the author’s weakness
6. What does the author suggest in the last paragraph
A. Recognizing our restriction. B. Motivating others to achieve goals.
C. Having faith in others’ words. D. Weighing what you can and can’t.
7. Which might be the best title of the text
A. Walk Out of Comfort Zone B. Because I Believe I Can
C. Say No to Challenges D. Under No Circumstances Can We Quit
C
A woman paralyzed (瘫痪) from the neck down has learned to use her thoughts to control a specially designed motorized arm. The arm is the product of years of research on mind-controlled artificial arm.
Researchers in the American state of Pennsylvania say the motorized arm is the most advanced mind-controlled artificial arm ever made. They created the device to help return some muscle control to Jan Scheuermann. She is suffering from a degenerative neuro muscular disease that paralyzed her from the neck down. She has no control of her arms and legs. The motorized right arm has a five-fingered hand with certain joints. It enables Ms. Scheuermann to pick up and hold objects and feed herself.
Neurobiologist Andrew Schwartz led the University of Pittsburgh research team that developed the artificial arm. Researchers placed about 200 electrodes (电极) in the woman’s left cerebral cortex which is the part of the brain that people use to move their right arm. The electrodes recorded what the woman’s brain cells were doing when she thought about moving the arm. That was enough information that we could then decode (解码) from those recordings what the intention of the subject was, the way she wanted to move her arm and her wrist and close her hand. Researchers could decode the information from those neurons to allow them to do that.
Jan Scheuermann took part in a 13-week-long program to teach her brain to move the arm. But she did not need that much time. “Nothing to it.” she smiled. She was able to use her mind to move the robotic arm after just two weeks of training. She reportedly told researchers that she planned to use the arm to feed herself some chocolate. When she was able to do that, it made the research team very delighted.
Andrew Schwartz says his team plans to build another artificial arm, so people like Ms. Scheuermann can hold and move objects using two hands. “And really, the satisfying part is that we’re not just making a machine move; we’re actually recreating natural humanoid movements. So we’re capturing all the beauty, and grace, and skill of a real movement and allowing these subjects to basically regain natural functions that they used to have.”
8. What can we learn about the artificial arm
A. It was completely controlled by AI. B. It has the same structure as human’s.
C. It can help patients do some daily chores. D. It makes movements under verbal commands.
9. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about
A. The procedures of fixing the artificial arm. B. The working principle of the artificial arm.
C. How the woman operated the artificial arm. D. How the researchers recorded the information.
10. What might Jan Scheuermann think of the training program
A. Tough. B. Unattainable. C. Complicated. D. Simple.
11. What made the researchers satisfied
A. They captured graceful movements.
B. They made a contribution to society.
C. They updated the new generation of artificial arm.
D. They assisted others with restoring natural functions.
D
Wiebe, who lives in Ohio, is now an influencer, an Internet celebrity. Nevertheless, there is a difference between her and many others. She is trying to “de-influence” her followers from buying things they don’t need.
In her daily TikTok videos, the content creator asks questions like “Did you want that product before it was marketed to you ” and reminds her followers that weekly and monthly clothing purchases are not normal.
“Haul” culture is a specific kind of social-media content that originated on YouTube in which creators reveal a mass of goods — usually clothing — to their fans.
Wiebe is part of a movement — growing since 2023 — that rejects traditional influencer culture, one that has exploded on TikTok, with the hashtag (标签) “de-influencing” obtaining more than a billion views. Along with hashtags like “underconsumption core” and “conscious consumer”, they share key messages, such as “Fast fashion won’t make you stylish.” and “Underconsumption is normal consumption.” As we move into 2025, Wiebe believes the cultural tide is turning and that we’ve reached “peak of influencer”. Wiebe thinks this shift initiated from an increased awareness of what influencers actually do. “It suddenly hit me that it was all advertising, from paid promotional content to the creators sharing hauls,” she says.
Most of Wiebe’s interactions online are positive, with comments like, "I needed to hear this advice today." Others, however, question why she feels the need to intervene in other people’s shopping habits.
It’s hard to say whether the de influencing movement is impacting brands just yet. Many timelines are still flooded with influencers. In 2024, the global influencer marketing industry was-estimated to be worth $21.1 bn, more than doubling in size since 2019.
12. In what way is. Wiebe special
A. She urges her fans to consume wisely. B. She has an attractive appearance.
C. She has many followers on the Internet. D. She does well in promoting e-commerce.
13. What does the underlined word “haul” refer to
A. Group buying. B. Paid advertisement. C. Fast fashion. D. Large purchase.
14. What is the movement Wiebe has participated in
A. It spreads traditional Internet culture globally.
B. It promotes paid advertisement online and offline.
C. It provides individuals with the latest fashion trend.
D. It enhances the awareness of reasonable consumption.
15. What can we infer from the last paragraph
A. Live streaming e-commerce enjoys popularity.
B. Brands will reject the cooperation with influencers.
C. Influencers should be responsible for their behaviors.
D. The de-influencing movement boosted the consumption.

It was a cool autumn morning when the school announced the annual sports day. For most students, it was a day of excitement and joy, but for me, it was just another event I wanted to avoid. I had always been the type to shy away from group activities, preferring the company of my books and thoughts.
Our class monitor, Sarah, noticed my unwillingness. She was the very image of enthusiasm and leadership, always trying to bring the class together. One day, she approached me during lunch. “Why don’t you join us for the relay race It’ll be fun,” she said with a warm smile. I hesitated, but her persistence was hard to ignore.
The next day, Sarah organized a practice session. I unwillingly joined, feeling out of place among my more athletic classmates. As we ran, I tripped and fell, scraping (擦伤) my knee. Embarrassed, I wanted to quit, but Sarah was there in an instant, offering a hand and words of encouragement. “It’s okay, we’re a team,” she said. At this time, other fellow classmates came to encourage me. Their kindness made me feel less alone.
As the days went by, I found myself looking forward to the practices. The care and support among my classmates was infectious. I began to see the value of teamwork and the joy of shared experiences. My initial unwillingness melted away, replaced by a newfound sense of belonging.
The anticipation for the sports day filled me with excitement. I dream of the cheers, the applauding crowd, and the thrill of competition. Training hard, I longed to showcase my skills, push my limits, share and feel the joy of victory. This event was more than a game; it means a lot for me. I could not wait to be part of it!
注意：1．续写词数应为150个左右；
2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
The day I looked forward to came eventually.

Our opponent winning narrowly, I blamed our failure on myself.

【答案】One Possible Version
Dear Mr. Smith,
Hoping this letter finds you well, I’m writing to request permission to perform a group choir instead of individual solos during next week’s singing activity.
Firstly, we believe a choir performance is better with the theme of teamwork in our chosen song You Raise Me Up, allowing all members to contribute equally. Additionally, group singing could reduce stage anxiety for shy classmates.
If approved, we’ll ensure a smooth and impressive performance. I’d appreciate it if you could take our request into consideration. Looking forward to your early reply.
Yours,
Li Hua

【47题答案】
【答案】One possible version:
The day I looked forward to came eventually. The air buzzed with cheers as our relay team stepped onto the track. I was seized by tension and unease, my palms sweating constantly. Sarah patted me on my shoulders, giving me encouragement with an inspiring look. A sense of determination crowding in, I raised my head confidently. When the whistle blew, I dashed like an arrow. But my competitors ran rather fast. My teammates’ shouts urged me forward. What made me frustrated was that I didn’t catch up with them. I was the last one to hand over the baton.
Our opponent winning narrowly I blamed our failure on myself. “If I’d run faster, we could have won.” I murmured, burying my head, with tears of guilt rolling down my checks. Approaching me. Sara said firmly, “We all gave our best!” The team gathered around, echoing her words. So warm was I that I felt incredibly comforted. Later, we shared snacks under a tree, encouraging each other to do it better next year. We were overwhelmed with joy, broad smiles lighting up our faces. It was then that I realized victory wasn’t just about medals; it was the courage to try and the bonds we’d built. Sports Day had taught me to cherish both.
