解析：
Day 1 1-4 DBCC
1. D。根据第1段“These trains can reach speeds of up to 160 miles (about 257 kilometers) per hour, raising hopes for a wider high-speed rail network across the country”可知，NextGen Acela列车时速可达160英里（约257公里），并有望推动全国更广泛的高铁网络发展。选项D“可能帮助发展更广泛的高铁网络”符合题意。
2. B。根据第3段“For example, the Northeast Corridor has tracks that cannot support trains traveling over 200 miles per hour because of sharp curves, aging tunnels and bridges and busy freight traffic”可知，作者以东北走廊为例，说明其弯道急、隧道桥梁老化及货运繁忙等问题导致无法支持高速列车，旨在阐述老旧铁路系统的局限性。
3. C。根据第5段“This often slows progress and increases costs, as American-made parts are usually more expensive and factories have limited production capacity”可知，“购买美国货”规则要求使用联邦资金的铁路设施必须美国制造，这导致项目进度延误和成本增加。
4. C。根据最后一段“Car culture also plays a big role... about 92 percent of US households own a vehicle. Driving is the most common way to travel in the US... ‘We’re a very car-addicted nation,’... ‘There are lots of people who just don’t think we need it (a high-speed rail system)’”可知，美国个人主义价值观、国土广阔和低人口密度塑造了强大的汽车文化，多数家庭拥有车辆，驾驶是主要出行方式，这降低了人们对高铁的兴趣。
Day 2 1-4 DBCA
1. D。根据文章第2段“First held in Switzerland in 1956, it was created as a symbol of European unity after World War II”可知，欧洲歌唱大赛最初是作为二战后欧洲团结的象征而创办的，选项D“展示欧洲的团结”符合题意。
2. B。由文章第4段“Because of Israel’s recent attacks on Gaza and its breaking of the cease - fire, tensions have grown over its presence in this year’s contest”以及第五段提到的抗议活动可知，以色列因近期在加沙的战争行动而面临抗议，这使得其参加今年的比赛充满争议。
3. C。从文章第7段“The EBU maintains that it is a group of broadcasters, not governments, and that every artist has the right to take part”可知，欧洲广播联盟认为每个艺术家都有参赛的权利，说明其对以色列参赛持支持态度，选项C符合。
4. A。文章第7段Clair Woodward说“It’s a shame this year’s contest is bogged down in anti-Israel controversy. The frivolous get-together should be all about the performances, not the real world”，意思是今年的比赛陷入反以色列的争议很可惜，这个轻松的聚会应该只关注表演，而不是现实世界，这意味着她认为欧洲歌唱大赛应该只专注于音乐。
Day 3 1-4 BBCD
1. B。根据文章第2段“According to the Chinese Academy of Sciences, an earworm isn’t a real worm – it’s when a song gets stuck in your head and keeps playing on a loop (循环播放) without you consciously (有意识地) trying”可知，“耳虫”指的是一首歌在你脑海中不断循环播放的一种情况，也就是旋律在脑海中重复。
2. B。从文章第3段“Singers’ names are kept as semantic memory, similar to saving a text file on a computer. It requires deliberate ‘naming and saving’ to be kept in long - term memory. Melodies, on the other hand, are stored as procedural memory ... recorded automatically by the body”可知，歌手的名字作为语义记忆存储，需要刻意地“命名和保存”才能进入长期记忆，而旋律作为程序记忆自动被身体记录，所以记住歌手名字需要更多努力。
3. C。由文章第4段“The study suggested that we enjoy music because our brains and bodies naturally sync with its rhythm, melody and harmony ... our brains physically resonate with it”以及第5段“When brain wave frequencies match music rhythms ... making these rhythms more pleasurable”可知，神经共振理论表明音乐通过使大脑和身体同步来创造愉悦感。
4. D。根据文章最后一段“... chewing gum keeps areas of the brain that are involved in hearing and remembering tunes busy, making them less likely to get stuck in your head”可知，嚼口香糖会让参与听觉和记忆曲调的大脑区域忙碌起来，也就是分散了大脑某些部分的注意力，从而减少“耳虫”现象。
Day 4 1-4 CBCD
1. C。根据文中“Amy”所说 “I ran to the shop and changed the little bottle of perfume (香水) for a big one,”以及 “I spent all my money to get it, and I’m not going to be selfish (自私的) any more!” 可知，Amy用小瓶香水换大瓶香水是为了不再自私，体现出她的无私，选项C“为了展示她的无私”符合文意。
2. B。从文中“Mrs March”说的话 “Girls, listen. Not far away is a poor woman, Mrs Hummel, with a new baby. Her six children are in one bed, trying to keep warm, as they have no wood for a fire. There is nothing to eat and they are hungry and cold. Will you give them your breakfast as a Christmas present?” 可以看出，Mrs March请求女儿们把早餐捐给有需要的人。
3. C。当“Mrs March”提出请求后，文中描述 “Then Jo said, ‘Mother, I’m so glad you came back before we began to eat!’ And the girls quickly began to put their breakfast in a basket.” 这表明女孩们迅速且心甘情愿地按照母亲说的去做，选项C“她们迅速且心甘情愿地行动起来”符合女孩们的反应。
4. D。文章讲述了女孩们放弃自己的早餐送给贫困家庭的故事，并且最后提到 “It was a very happy meal, although the girls ate none of it. But no one was happier than those hungry young ladies who gave away their breakfast on Christmas morning.” 说明给予他人带来了更深层次的快乐。

1. F。上文提到“每次完成项目后，我不会欣赏自己的成功或为自己的成就感到自豪，而是直接进入下一个任务”，下文引用专家观点说明不为成就感到自豪可能导致长期的不快乐和不满。F项“如果我不为自己的成就感到自豪，这重要吗？”承接上文作者的情况，引出下文专家关于此问题的看法，起到了过渡作用。
2. E。下文指出“那些害怕失败的人可能认为成功是对他们是谁以及能力的考验，他们的自我价值与成就紧密相连，失败会令人沮丧”，这是在解释人们不为成就感到自豪的原因。E项“为什么人们不为自己的成就感到骄傲？”引出了下文对原因的阐述，符合上下文逻辑。
3. B。上文提出问题“how do we feel pride in our accomplishments”，随后文章从几个方面给出具体建议。B项“这里有一些可以改变你思维方式的建议”承接上文的问题，引出下文的具体建议内容，与后文"First ... Second ... Last ..."的递进结构完美衔接。
4. G。前文建议“反思为什么成功的需求如此重要以及为什么害怕失败”，后文引用Cha的话“我们的价值不在于我们做了什么，而在于我们是谁，在于我们的存在”。G项“你是否认为只有取得了成就你才是有价值的？”既承接前文反思的内容，又与后文强调自身存在价值相呼应，是对前后内容的衔接。
5. C。前文提到“要给自己一些荣誉”，后文说“把它们写在便利贴上并贴在墙上或日记里”。C项“大声说出这些有意义的时刻”，与后文"写在便签"形成动作递进：先"口头表达"→再"书面记录"，符合行为逻辑顺序。
