Baseball was everything to Walker Smallwood. But when he was just 14 years old, he got heartbreaking news that he had a rare form of bone cancer growing in his left leg. His baseball playing came to a sudden stop as he spent the next three years undergoing six surgeries, 24 treatments and 18 hospital stays.
The young pitcher’s leg would never be strong enough to make competitive playing an option. “At the time I guess I was just kind of in denial, because my whole life, day in and day out, was built around baseball and sports,” Walker said. “It was pretty disastrous,” his mom, Pam said. The most the 17-year-old would be able to do is play catch with his teammates as they warmed up for their games.
As the team approached the final game of the season, Walker’s parents and coach agreed that he could pitch (投球) for an inning (一局) or two for the old time’s sake.
“Say you did it, have some fun, and then that’ll be it. Obviously, that’s not what happened,” Walker said.
What ended up happening was more than anyone ever expected. Walker not only threw solid pitches in that first inning, but he also ended up pitching a no-hitter. The coach decided to keep him in the game until he started giving up pitches, but that never happened. Smallwood struck out all but two hitters for the entire game and tied a school record in the process.
“I was in tears, most of the stands were in tears — just one of those special moments that we’ll cherish forever,” mom Pam said. Smallwood may never play again. He’s actually fine with that now because who needs a World Series ring when you’ve already taken on your greatest competitor and gone undefeated.
24. What does the word “It” underlined in paragraph 2 refer to?
A. The serious injury to his leg. B. The childhood baseball dream.
C. The risk of multiple surgeries. D. The long-term mental stress.
25. Which of the following best describes Walker Smallwood?
A. Confident and energetic. B. Ambitious and determined.
C. Brilliant and considerate. D. Optimistic and independent.
26. Why does the author mention a World Series ring in the last paragraph?
A. To emphasize the value of cherishing every moment.
B. To stress the significance of any championship prize.
C. To highlight Walker’s personal success at the game.
D. To serves as a reminder of challenges in Walker’s life.
27. What can we learn from Walker’s story?
A. Misfortune can tell us what fortune is. B. You can’t teach an old dog new tricks.
C. Constant dropping wears away a stone. D. What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger.
C
While an analysis of the Global Dietary Database for the years 1990, 2005, and 2018 found overall consumption of sweetened drinks increased — by nearly 16% worldwide over the 28-year period studied — regional intake widely varied, researchers say.
Sugary drinks have been widely associated with overweight and heart related diseases, which are among the leading causes of death and years lost to disability globally. Many national guidelines recommend limiting added sugars to less than 5% to 10% of daily calories, and because sodas (汽水) add no nutritional value, some countries tax their consumption to help their residents meet this goal.
The study, published in Nature Communications, is the latest presentation of how adults in 185 countries drink sugar-sweetened beverages (饮料). Intakes varied widely by world region. In 2018, the average person consumed 2.7 servings of sugary drinks per week, but this ranged from 0.7 servings per week in South Asia to 7.8 servings per week in Latin America. And some of the highest sugary drink intakes in the world were among urban, highly educated adults in Sub-Saharan Africa (12.4 servings per week) and in Latin America (8.5 servings per week). “We were struck by the wide variations by world regions in 2018; that Latin America had the largest intakes at all time points despite an overall decrease overtime; and that Sub-Saharan Africa had the greatest increases across all time points,” says Laura Lara-Castor, a PhD candidate at Tufts University.
“These results suggest that more work is needed such as marketing regulations, food labeling, and soda taxes.” Information from the Global Dietary Database, which gathers hundreds of survey results, also revealed a relationship between sugary beverages and socio-economic status. “Sugar-sweetened beverage intake has increased in the past few decades despite efforts to decrease their appeal,” says researchers. “Some populations are especially easily affected, and our findings provide evidence to inform the need and design of national and more targeted policies to reduce their intake worldwide.”
28. What is the main concern about sugary drinks?
A. They are just a barrier to weight loss. B. They are linked to health issues.
C. They are far from nutrition standard. D. They are a total waste of money.
29. Why do some countries tax the consumption of sodas?
A. To increase income for the government. B. To promote the sales of healthier drinks.
C. To discourage people from drinking sodas. D. To set a limit to the price of sugary drinks.
30. What is the primary focus of the study published in Nature Communications?
A. Sugary drink consumption trends. B. Impact of soda taxes on purchases.
C. Regional variations in dietary habits. D. Global dietary information analysis.
31. What can we infer from the results of the study?
A. Sugary drinks have nothing to do with economic status.
B. The appeal of sugary drinks cannot be underestimated.
C. Some people are very particular about the sugary drinks.
D. National policies on sugary drinks are more than enough.

Three young American men were on a crowded train when they encountered a heavily armed terrorist. With little regard for their personal safety, they rushed the terrorist and controlled him. Only some people seem capable of this split-second form of heroism. Why some men rise to the occasion—and others don’t—has been a bit tricky to explain. Psychologists have explored this question through biological and personality psychology.
Of course, heroism and courage can appear in many forms, and men and women risk their reputations, health, and social standing to do what they think is right. When it comes to physically risky bravery, people assume that men will take the lead. There are sound biological reasons for this fixed image. One of the most common fears in men is that they’ll be outed as a coward (懦夫), and a man who fails to display physical courage will suffer damage to his reputation in a way that a woman will not. Throughout human history, attaining a position of high status or dominance among one’s peers (同龄人) has been the ticket that needs to get punched for men to attract mates and father children.
People tend to have an idea of what heroes are like. When rating the personalities of movie heroes, participants expected them to be more careful and hard-working, open to experience, agreeable, and emotionally stable than the average person. But some studies indicate that people who exhibit heroic behavior score high on personality usually associated with madmen: risk-taking, sensation seeking, coolness under stress, and a tendency to take over in social situations.
The study of the relationship between personality and heroism is at an early stage. Psychologists are still at a loss to predict in advance who will heroically step up when needed. Often, the hero is an otherwise ordinary person who finds himself in extraordinary circumstances. Meanwhile, some individuals trained to behave heroically might hesitate during a crisis. Future disasters will cry out for further acts of true heroism. Hopefully, the right mix of circumstances and personalities enable courage to carry the day.
32. How is the topic introduced in the first paragraph?
A. By giving an example. B. By presenting a concept.
C. By making a comparison. D. By drawing a conclusion.
33. What do the underlined words “get punched” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Be bought. B. Be gifted. C. Be obtained. D. Be abandoned.
34. Why is it difficult to predict who will act heroically in a crisis?
A. Heroes and ordinary people are always difficult to tell apart.
B. Heroism is a phenomenon influenced by numerous factors.
C. Unknown circumstances play a crucial role in heroic acts.
D. Individual personality is not a reliable indicator of heroism.
35. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. How Are Heroes Trained? B. Why Are Heroes Important?
C. Who Are the True Heroes? D. What Makes a Person Heroic?

Based on his own research at Washington University in St. Louis and other scientific studies, psychology lecturer Bono offers the following tips for getting and staying happier in your life.
____36____ Looking forward to an enjoyable experience can make it all that much sweeter. Wait a couple of days before seeing a new movie that just came out, plan your big vacation for later in the summer, and try to take time to enjoy each bite of dessert.

People who focus more on process than outcome tend to remain motivated in the face of setbacks.

The next time you are attracted to use your phone to look through social media, look through your list of contacts instead. ____40____ The happiness you get from a real connection with another person will be far greater than any comments or likes you get on social media.

67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Tom is a special child. Ever since he was little, dogs have been his greatest passion. He often growled (低吼) and barked and sometimes moved around the house on all fours. His parents brought in a little brown female dog named Lynn. Tom was on cloud nine. One day, this little boy, together with Lynn, was sitting quietly down by the side of the street when suddenly a giant dog walked across him. He was a little surprised and started screaming as loudly as he could! All of this frightened Lynn away immediately.
Tom’s parents tried to see what the chances were of Lynn coming home on her own. But five days later, there was still no sign of Lynn. The boy didn’t just have tears streaming down his cheeks — his parents were saddened too.
The woods behind their home stretched for over 50 miles! Together with their neighbors, they searched for over a month. But Lynn was gone. Tom’s parents wanted to choose a new puppy for him. But no dog could replace Lynn for him.
Tom was not the same boy. He locked himself in his room. He seemed to have lost his love for dogs. He could not focus his attention on his classes so he didn’t want to go to school. He would easily get angry with people around him. Tom changed from a happy, smiling boy to an upset and annoying kid.
Tom’s parents wanted him to stay home and he had been studying at home ever since. His parents accompanied him almost every day, but staying home didn’t help much. The boy’s mother worried a lot. One rainy afternoon, she saw him staring out the window. “I miss Lynn so much. I wonder if everything is okay with her?” It had been a long time since his beloved dog ran away, but Tom’s despair was as great as the day it happened. Days later, Tom walked out the front door with his head down and sat by the side of the street.

【原文】Phil Cleaver, a British designer, won a prize in the 2024 Global Zodiac Design Competition for his work well including ancient representations of the Chinese dragon.
To display his understanding of this year’s Chinese zodiac animal, the Chinese dragon, also known as “loong” according to its pronunciation in Chinese, Cleaver combined different symbolic objects in his work: an antique Chinese dragon-shaped pipe placed across an open book, with the book resting against a blackboard.
“The loong itself is an antique pipe, beautiful in its detail, and it sits on a book that is a story of a dragon. The book is a very old symbol of knowledge…the book reflects the knowledge and wisdom of the loong,” Phil Cleaver told Xinhua in a written interview.
This is his second time taking part in this contest. Last year, for the contest marking the Year of the Rabbit, he presented a print entitled Rabbit Moon, which he said was inspired by an ancient Chinese fairy tale.
Referring to a comparison between the Western and Chinese dragons, Cleaver said the two types of dragons share some similarities in how they are shown in paintings, but Chinese culture contributes much better qualities to the dragons than the concept of a horrible animal well-accepted in Western culture.

Baseball was everything to Walker Smallwood. But when he was just 14 years old, he got heartbreaking news that he had a rare form of bone cancer growing in his left leg. His baseball playing came to a sudden stop as he spent the next three years undergoing six surgeries, 24 treatments and 18 hospital stays.
The young pitcher’s leg would never be strong enough to make competitive playing an option. “At the time I guess I was just kind of in denial, because my whole life, day in and day out, was built around baseball and sports,” Walker said. “It was pretty disastrous,” his mom, Pam said. The most the 17-year-old would be able to do is play catch with his teammates as they warmed up for their games.
As the team approached the final game of the season, Walker’s parents and coach agreed that he could pitch (投球) for an inning (一局) or two for the old time’s sake.
“Say you did it, have some fun, and then that’ll be it. Obviously, that’s not what happened,” Walker said.
What ended up happening was more than anyone ever expected. Walker not only threw solid pitches in that first inning, but he also ended up pitching a no-hitter. The coach decided to keep him in the game until he started giving up pitches, but that never happened. Smallwood struck out all but two hitters for the entire game and tied a school record in the process.
“I was in tears, most of the stands were in tears — just one of those special moments that we’ll cherish forever,” mom Pam said. Smallwood may never play again. He’s actually fine with that now because who needs a World Series ring when you’ve already taken on your greatest competitor and gone undefeated.
24. What does the word “It” underlined in paragraph 2 refer to?
A. The serious injury to his leg. B. The childhood baseball dream.
C. The risk of multiple surgeries. D. The long-term mental stress.
25. Which of the following best describes Walker Smallwood?
A. Confident and energetic. B. Ambitious and determined.
C. Brilliant and considerate. D. Optimistic and independent.
26. Why does the author mention a World Series ring in the last paragraph?
A. To emphasize the value of cherishing every moment.
B. To stress the significance of any championship prize.
C. To highlight Walker’s personal success at the game.
D. To serves as a reminder of challenges in Walker’s life.
27. What can we learn from Walker’s story?
A. Misfortune can tell us what fortune is. B. You can’t teach an old dog new tricks.
C. Constant dropping wears away a stone. D. What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger.
【答案】24. A 25. B 26. C 27. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文,本文介绍了17岁男孩 Walker Smallwood 因患一种罕见的癌症不得不放弃棒球运动。他重返球场参加最后一场比赛,投出了一个无安打的球,震惊所有人。
【24题详解】
词句猜测题。根据前两段以及“The young pitcher’s leg would never be strong enough to make competitive playing an option.(这位年轻投手的腿永远不会强壮到足以让他参加比赛)”可知,Walker一直梦想成为职业棒球手,但因癌症造成腿部伤害,无力支持高强度运动,妈妈因此想表达这简直是灾难性的,所以 it 在这里就是指代前面的癌症使得他的腿受伤无力这件事。故选A。
【25题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“Say you did it, have some fun, and then that’ll be it. Obviously, that’s not what happened(说你做到了,找点乐子,然后就行了。显然,事实并非如此)”和第五段中“Walker not only threw solid pitches in that first inning, but he also ended up pitching a no-hitter. The coach decided to keep him in the game until he started giving up pitches, but that never happened.(Walker不仅在第一局投出了稳定的球,而且他最终投出了无安打。教练决定让他留在比赛中,直到他开始放弃投球,但这并没有发生)”可知,Walker在得知有机会参加最后一场比赛后,就决心不只是去玩玩,而是认真打比赛。结果他投出了一个无安打的球,超出所有人的预期。从这里可以看出这位年轻投手有追求,有决心,也很努力, 棒球是他一生的追求,说明他很有雄心壮志。故选B。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。从文章最后一段“Smallwood may never play again. He’s actually fine with that now because who needs a World Series ring when you’ve already taken on your greatest competitor and gone undefeated.(Smallwood可能再也不会上场了。他现在已经接受了,因为当你已经打败了你最大的竞争对手并且保持不败时,谁还需要一个世界大赛戒指呢)”可知,作者是为了强调 Smallwood 当天在棒球场上的成就超过了任何冠军奖的意义。一枚世界大赛戒指是棒球终极成就的象征,但Smallwood克服癌症带来的伤痛,投出一个无安打的球,所向无敌,其它荣誉何足挂齿。 虽然他可能再也不能打球了,但他并不感到失落。故选C。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据全文内容,结合第一段中“His baseball playing came to a sudden stop as he spent the next three years undergoing six surgeries, 24 treatments and 18 hospital stays.(在接下来的三年里,他经历了6次手术、24次治疗和18次住院,他的棒球生涯戛然而止)”和倒数第二段中“Smallwood struck out all but two hitters for the entire game and tied a school record in the process.(Smallwood在整场比赛中三振了除两名击球手外的所有人,并在此过程中追平了学校的记录)”可知,本文介绍了17岁男孩 Walker Smallwood 因患一种罕见的癌症不得不放弃棒球运动。他重返球场参加最后一场比赛,投出了一个无安打的球,震惊所有人。D项“What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger.(那些杀不死你的,终将使你更强大)”符合题意,无法打败你的事情才能让你更坚强,点明中心。故选D。
C
While an analysis of the Global Dietary Database for the years 1990, 2005, and 2018 found overall consumption of sweetened drinks increased — by nearly 16% worldwide over the 28-year period studied — regional intake widely varied, researchers say.
Sugary drinks have been widely associated with overweight and heart related diseases, which are among the leading causes of death and years lost to disability globally. Many national guidelines recommend limiting added sugars to less than 5% to 10% of daily calories, and because sodas (汽水) add no nutritional value, some countries tax their consumption to help their residents meet this goal.
The study, published in Nature Communications, is the latest presentation of how adults in 185 countries drink sugar-sweetened beverages (饮料). Intakes varied widely by world region. In 2018, the average person consumed 2.7 servings of sugary drinks per week, but this ranged from 0.7 servings per week in South Asia to 7.8 servings per week in Latin America. And some of the highest sugary drink intakes in the world were among urban, highly educated adults in Sub-Saharan Africa (12.4 servings per week) and in Latin America (8.5 servings per week). “We were struck by the wide variations by world regions in 2018; that Latin America had the largest intakes at all time points despite an overall decrease overtime; and that Sub-Saharan Africa had the greatest increases across all time points,” says Laura Lara-Castor, a PhD candidate at Tufts University.
“These results suggest that more work is needed such as marketing regulations, food labeling, and soda taxes.” Information from the Global Dietary Database, which gathers hundreds of survey results, also revealed a relationship between sugary beverages and socio-economic status. “Sugar-sweetened beverage intake has increased in the past few decades despite efforts to decrease their appeal,” says researchers. “Some populations are especially easily affected, and our findings provide evidence to inform the need and design of national and more targeted policies to reduce their intake worldwide.”
28. What is the main concern about sugary drinks?
A. They are just a barrier to weight loss. B. They are linked to health issues.
C. They are far from nutrition standard. D. They are a total waste of money.
29. Why do some countries tax the consumption of sodas?
A. To increase income for the government. B. To promote the sales of healthier drinks.
C. To discourage people from drinking sodas. D. To set a limit to the price of sugary drinks.
30. What is the primary focus of the study published in Nature Communications?
A. Sugary drink consumption trends. B. Impact of soda taxes on purchases.
C. Regional variations in dietary habits. D. Global dietary information analysis.
31. What can we infer from the results of the study?
A. Sugary drinks have nothing to do with economic status.
B The appeal of sugary drinks cannot be underestimated.
C. Some people are very particular about the sugary drinks.
D. National policies on sugary drinks are more than enough.
【答案】28. B 29. C 30. A 31. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文介绍了含糖饮料摄入量在过去几十年不断增加,人们对含糖饮料的渴望与居住的地方有关。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段第一句“Sugary drinks have been widely associated with overweight and heart related diseases, which are among the leading causes of death and years lost to disability globally. (人们普遍认为含糖饮料与超重和心脏相关疾病有关,而这些疾病是全球范围内导致死亡和残疾的主要原因之一。)”可知,人们对含糖饮料的主要担忧是它与健康问题有关。故选B。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Many national guidelines recommend limiting added sugars to less than 5% to 10% of daily calories, and because sodas (汽水) add no nutritional value, some countries tax their consumption to help their residents meet this goal. (许多国家的指导方针建议将添加糖限制在每日热量的5%至10%以下,由于汽水没有增加营养价值,一些国家对其消费征税,以帮助其居民实现这一目标)”可知,有的国家对汽水增加税收是为了让人们少喝没有营养价值的汽水,达到控制每日糖摄入量的目的。故选C。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。 根据第一段“While an analysis of the Global Dietary Database for the years 1990, 2005, and 2018 found overall consumption of sweetened drinks increased — by nearly 16% worldwide over the 28-year period studied—regional intake widely varied, researchers say.(研究人员表示,尽管对1990年、2005年和2018年全球饮食数据库的分析发现,在研究的28年期间,全球加糖饮料的总消费量增加了近16%,但地区摄入量差异很大)”及第三段“The study, published in Nature Communications, is the latest presentation of how adults in 185 countries drink sugar-sweetened beverages (饮料). Intakes varied widely by world region.(该研究发表在《自然通讯》杂志上,是185个国家的成年人如何饮用含糖饮料的最新报告。摄入量因世界地区而异)”可知,文章主要讨论了全球范围内含糖饮料的消费趋势,包括不同地区和时间段的消费数据。例如,文章提到1990年、2005年和2018年的全球含糖饮料消费总体增加了16%,并且详细分析了不同地区的消费差异。由此推知,研究核心是含糖饮料的消费趋势。故选A。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段““Sugar-sweetened beverage intake has increased in the past few decades despite efforts to decrease their appeal,” says researchers. “Some populations are especially easily affected, and our findings provide evidence to inform the need and design of national and more targeted policies to reduce their intake worldwide.” (研究人员说:“尽管人们努力降低含糖饮料的吸引力,但在过去的几十年里,含糖饮料的摄入量却在增加。”“一些人群特别容易受到影响,我们的研究结果为各国制定更有针对性的政策以减少全球范围内的摄入提供了证据。”)”可知,在过去的几十年里,尽管在努力降低含糖饮料的吸引力,但其摄入量仍在增加,由此可知,含糖饮料的吸引力不容小觑。故选B。
D
Three young American men were on a crowded train when they encountered a heavily armed terrorist. With little regard for their personal safety, they rushed the terrorist and controlled him. Only some people seem capable of this split-second form of heroism. Why some men rise to the occasion—and others don’t—has been a bit tricky to explain. Psychologists have explored this question through biological and personality psychology.
Of course, heroism and courage can appear in many forms, and men and women risk their reputations, health, and social standing to do what they think is right. When it comes to physically risky bravery, people assume that men will take the lead. There are sound biological reasons for this fixed image. One of the most common fears in men is that they’ll be outed as a coward (懦夫), and a man who fails to display physical courage will suffer damage to his reputation in a way that a woman will not. Throughout human history, attaining a position of high status or dominance among one’s peers (同龄人) has been the ticket that needs to get punched for men to attract mates and father children.
People tend to have an idea of what heroes are like. When rating the personalities of movie heroes, participants expected them to be more careful and hard-working, open to experience, agreeable, and emotionally stable than the average person. But some studies indicate that people who exhibit heroic behavior score high on personality usually associated with madmen: risk-taking, sensation seeking, coolness under stress, and a tendency to take over in social situations.
The study of the relationship between personality and heroism is at an early stage. Psychologists are still at a loss to predict in advance who will heroically step up when needed. Often, the hero is an otherwise ordinary person who finds himself in extraordinary circumstances. Meanwhile, some individuals trained to behave heroically might hesitate during a crisis. Future disasters will cry out for further acts of true heroism. Hopefully, the right mix of circumstances and personalities enable courage to carry the day.
32. How is the topic introduced in the first paragraph?
A. By giving an example. B. By presenting a concept.
C. By making a comparison. D. By drawing a conclusion.
33. What do the underlined words “get punched” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Be bought. B. Be gifted. C. Be obtained. D. Be abandoned.
34. Why is it difficult to predict who will act heroically in a crisis?
A. Heroes and ordinary people are always difficult to tell apart.
B. Heroism is a phenomenon influenced by numerous factors.
C. Unknown circumstances play a crucial role in heroic acts.
D. Individual personality is not a reliable indicator of heroism.
35. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. How Are Heroes Trained? B. Why Are Heroes Important?
C. Who Are the True Heroes? D. What Makes a Person Heroic?
【答案】32. A 33. C 34. B 35. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章通过对三个年轻人在火车上制服恐怖分子的描述,引出关于为什么有些人能在关键时刻表现出英雄主义的问题,并探讨了这个问题背后的生物学和人格心理学原因。
【32题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Three young men were on a crowded train when they encountered a heavily armed terrorist. With little regard for their personal safety, they rushed the terrorist and controlled him. (三个年轻人在拥挤的火车上遇到了一个全副武装的恐怖分子。他们不顾自己的人身安全,冲向恐怖分子并控制住了他)”可知,本段首先描述了三个年轻人在火车上面对恐怖分子时的行为,这是一个例子,引出了为什么有些人挺身而出,表现得很英勇,而另一些人却没有。因此,本段是通过一个例子来引出主题。故选A。
【33题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线单词上文“One of the most common fears in men is that they’ll be outed as a coward (懦夫), and a man who fails to display physical courage will suffer damage to his reputation in a way that a woman will not.(男人最常见的恐惧之一是,他们会被认为是懦夫,而一个没有表现出勇气的男人,他的声誉会受到损害,而女人不会)”及“Throughout human history, attaining a position of high status or dominance among one’s peers (同龄人)has been the ticket(纵观人类历史,在同龄人中获得较高地位或统治地位一直是通行证)”以及划线单词后的“for men to attract mates and father children.(男性吸引配偶和生儿育女)”可知,划线单词指的是在同伴中获得较高的地位或支配地位是男性吸引配偶和生儿育女的必要条件,是需要获得的通行证。选项C“被获得、拥有”符合句意。故选C。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“Psychologists are still at a loss to predict in advance who will heroically step up when needed. Often, the hero is an otherwise ordinary person who finds himself in extraordinary circumstances. Meanwhile, some individuals trained to behave heroically might hesitate during a crisis. (心理学家仍然无法提前预测在关键时刻谁会挺身而出,展现出英雄行为。很多时候,英雄往往是那些原本平凡的人,只是他们遇到了非同寻常的情况。与此同时,一些经过训练本应表现英勇的人在危机时刻可能会犹豫不决)”可知,预测谁会在危机中表现出英勇行为是困难的,因为英雄主义受到多种因素影响,包括个人所处的具体情境和个人特质等。故选B。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“Why some men rise to the occasion—and others don’t—has been a bit tricky to explain. Psychologists have explored this question through biological and personality psychology.(为什么有些男人能应付得了,而有些人却不能,这一点很难解释。心理学家通过生物心理学和人格心理学探索了这个问题)”以及全文内容可知,文章主要分析了英雄行为与个人性格、生物因素及社会期待之间的关系,并指出预测英雄行为的复杂性,探讨什么使得某些人在关键时刻能够表现出英勇行为,成为英雄。D项“是什么让一个人成为英雄?”符合文意,最适合作为本文标题。故选D。

Based on his own research at Washington University in St. Louis and other scientific studies, psychology lecturer Bono offers the following tips for getting and staying happier in your life.
____36____ Looking forward to an enjoyable experience can make it all that much sweeter. Wait a couple of days before seeing a new movie that just came out, plan your big vacation for later in the summer, and try to take time to enjoy each bite of dessert. On the opposite, get negative tasks out of the way as quickly as possible — any delay will only make them seem worse.
People who focus more on process than outcome tend to remain motivated in the face of setbacks. They’re better at sticking with major challenges and prefer them over the easy route. ____37____ Because it celebrates rewards that come from the work itself. Focusing only on the outcome can lead to premature burnout if things don’t go well.
____38____ Find an activity that allows you to get together with friends on a regular, ongoing basis. A weekly happy hour, poker night, or TV show ensures consistency and motivation in your social interactions. People with high-quality relationships are not only happier, but also healthier. ____39____
The next time you are attracted to use your phone to look through social media, look through your list of contacts instead. ____40____ The happiness you get from a real connection with another person will be far greater than any comments or likes you get on social media.
A. Anticipation itself is pleasurable.
B. Decrease unnecessary socializing.
C. Find someone to call or FaceTime.
D. This “growth mindset” helps people stay energized.
E. Facebook and Instagram often overstate how much better off others are.

【38题详解】
根据下文“Find an activity that allows you to get together with friends on a regular, ongoing basis.

A Debate on Labour Education Week
Our school is planning to carry out Labour Education Week, giving a rise to a heated debate among the students. Here’s where they disagree.

Other students don’t agree. They think it is just a waste of time. They can learn to work naturally when they grow up. Right now they should devote their precious time to studies.

67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Tom is a special child. Ever since he was little, dogs have been his greatest passion. He often growled (低吼) and barked and sometimes moved around the house on all fours. His parents brought in a little brown female dog named Lynn. Tom was on cloud nine. One day, this little boy, together with Lynn, was sitting quietly down by the side of the street when suddenly a giant dog walked across him. He was a little surprised and started screaming as loudly as he could! All of this frightened Lynn away immediately.
Tom’s parents tried to see what the chances were of Lynn coming home on her own. But five days later, there was still no sign of Lynn. The boy didn’t just have tears streaming down his cheeks — his parents were saddened too.
The woods behind their home stretched for over 50 miles! Together with their neighbors, they searched for over a month. But Lynn was gone. Tom’s parents wanted to choose a new puppy for him. But no dog could replace Lynn for him.
Tom was not the same boy. He locked himself in his room. He seemed to have lost his love for dogs. He could not focus his attention on his classes so he didn’t want to go to school. He would easily get angry with people around him. Tom changed from a happy, smiling boy to an upset and annoying kid.
Tom’s parents wanted him to stay home and he had been studying at home ever since. His parents accompanied him almost every day, but staying home didn’t help much. The boy’s mother worried a lot. One rainy afternoon, she saw him staring out the window. “I miss Lynn so much. I wonder if everything is okay with her?” It had been a long time since his beloved dog ran away, but Tom’s despair was as great as the day it happened. Days later, Tom walked out the front door with his head down and sat by the side of the street.

Lynn licked his cheeks and then walked to the edge of the woods.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 A huge brown dog crossed the street and stood in front of the crying boy. The animal barked twice and watched Tom, tongue rolling out. It was only after a few minutes that he looked at it more closely. The four-legged giant’s glassy eyes reminded him of hugging by the fireplace and running between the sprinklers in the backyard. He knew the dog very well. It was Lynn!!! Tom ran to his friend and wrapped his arms tightly around her neck.
Lynn licked his cheeks and then walked to the edge of the woods. Tom ran after Lynn and entered the woods. He lost sight of her for a moment, but luckily soon heard his friend barking. And he finally saw it… Lynn grew up to be an adult dog and became a mother! She had three fluffy, sweet little puppies. Tom took Lynn and her puppies home and his parents were very happy to adopt the little dogs. Tom took good care of Lynn and her puppies. He shared his story, showing his appreciation of tiny animals.

①由第一段首句内容“一只巨大的棕色狗穿过街道,站在哭泣的男孩面前。”可知,第一段可描写Tom认出这条大狗就是Lynn。
