We like to try new activities and visit new places. We become bored when there is ittle vziery. Neverthelcss, therc's one place where we tend to dislike yariety, and that's in each other, We ces fee 第3页共10页 进 扫描全能王 创建 uncomfortable with people who practise differemt habits, or hold beliefs or values thxt we do sot share There are reasons for this. When we are exposed to new and different things, our brais wortos bit harder than usual. When we're learning, our nerve cells require more resources, sch zs wxter, sk and various other chemicals. This extra metabolic (新陈代谢的) activity can frel un:etling and unplcasant. And it can feel worse if our ncrvous systcm is alrcady mder pretsure. like im the mmidet of the pandemic. This sort of variation may be uncomfortable for individuals, but it's critical to the smrvrvsl of ary species. If all finches (雀科鸣鸟) werc identical, for cxamplc, and their crvironment chxnged m same significant, harmful ways, like an increase in the temperature or a decrease in water, all of them would be equally affected and the species might become extinct. This insight into variatiop cormes fror Charles Darwin, and it's known as population thinking. Most people associate Darwin with hi cvolutionary theory of natural sclection. but population thinking may be an cveo grerter scicntific achievement. The idea of "survival of the fittest'" implies that individuals must vary. Some are more suited than others for a given environment, making it easier for them to survive, grow, and reprodnce Variation is therefore a prerequisite for natural selection to work Dealing with the vast variety of humankind can be demanding and even annoying at times, ber it's a good investment, sort of like exercise for your brain. When you meet someone who looks different or thinks differently from you, treat your discomfort as a cue to be curious and learn instead of a sigmal of a problem. Don't hold the view that the other person should be silenced. Ultimately, this mindset can make you more flexible in adapting to challenging sitmations, and more adaptable to change. 25. Which of the following might make people feel uncomfortable? A. Having an adventure in the wild. B. Taking a trip to a foreign country. C. Sharing travcling expcriences with others D. Socializing with people from diverse cultures 26. What does the second paragraph focus on? A People's unwillingness to deal with new things B. The significance of learning new things in our life. C. The biological explanations for people's discomfort D The role of the nervous system in leaming new things 27. What does the undcrlined word "prerequisite" in Paragraph 3. probably mean? B.Alternative. C. Motivation. A. Requirement D. Challenge 28. What does the writer mainly want to convey? A. Why we tend to chase and enjov variation. B. How we can benefit from seeking variation C. How we should treat the differences we find in others D. Why we should get along with people different from us 第4页共10页 进 扫描全能王 创建 C In tho lab, most mice go as far as to take clcctric shocks in thcir despcration to consumc sugar. Mice aren't alone. Humans do something similar. Daily snacking on processed foods, recent studies show, rewires the brain's reward circuits(回路) Ashlcy Gcarhardt, a clinical psychologist at the University of Michigan, argucs that highly processcd foods, very high in fat and carbohydrate, don't cxist naturally. "They're dcsigned by food scicntists to look a certain way, fecl a ccrtain way in your mouth, smell a certain way whcn you opcr the package." shc says, "People aren't losing control over beans." In highly processed snacks, sugar oftcn goes together with fat-a combination that could make such foods evcn more addictive. For a 2023 study, DeFeliceantonio's team asked 82 people to snck on cither high-fat, high-sugar yogurts or low-sugar, low-fat ones for eight weeks. The scientists discovered not only that the first group's preference for the hcalthier yogurts decreased after the trial but that their brain activation patterns changed, too. When tasting fatty, sugary milkshakes, they had an increased response in their reward circuits. "Highly processed foods are controlling the brain in a way you'd see with addiction to drugs." DePeliceantonio says. In 2o22, Gearhardt and DeFeliccantonio published an opinion piece in the journal Addiction arguing that highly processed foods should be classified(分类) as addictive. Hebebrand, a psychiatrist at the University of Duisburg-Essen, however, worries that rushing to classify certain foods as addictive could let the sugar industry make an easy escape. It may be following "the playbook of the tobacco industry."After all. there was no clear proof that nicotine(尼 古丁) was addictive, either: researchers didn't know the dosage(剂量) at which it became addictive. As a result, the addictive nature of tobacco was opposed for decades. Considering highly processed foods' harmful health effects, Gearhardt argues that it's better to risk misclassifying highly processed foods as addictive than to fail to label(贴标签) dhem as such."It's cigarettes all over again." She says 29. What does paragraph 2 suggest A. Processed foods are tastler than natural ones. B. Beans are much healthie! fhan proccssed foods C. People can become addicted to processed foods D. The design of processed foods takes great effort 30 According to the 2023 study, those eating high-fat, high-sugar yogurts have ___ A. decreased response to healthy foods in reward system B. increased likelihood of developing addiction to drugs C. increased difficulty in activating the brain with drugs D. decreased interest in highly processed snacks 31. What is Hebebrand's attitude towards olassifving sugar as addictive? B. Cautious. A. Supportlve. C. Uncencerned. - D. Unclear. 32. What docs Gearhardt mean by saying "It's cigarettes all over again."? A. It's time we labeled tobacco as addictive B The market will be filled with processed foods 第5页共10页 进 扫描全能王 创建 C. wo should clasxlfy nugar an nddictive bofore jt'r too late D.

A boundary is a limit defining you in relation to someone or something. .- 1f you have informcd somcone that this is your office spacc, your desk, or your chair, you have attempted to sot physical boundaries. Letting co-workers know you are not confortablc shaking thcir hands or hugging them at a holiday party, cspecially with Covid at this time, is another example of sctting a physical boundary. It is often easie: undorstand a physical boundary. Emotional or mental boundaries may be subtler (更 微妙的).. Emotional boundaries aro rcluted to our feclings and how something or someone's behavior affects us, For cxnmplo. if a boss treats you disrespectfully by yelling at you or a colleague freaucntly interrupts you in mectings, you aro likely to feel hurt, embarrassed, and perhaps angry. Understandably by having a couragcous conversation with both your boss and co-worker about their behavior, the impact it has on you, nnd your cxpectations regarding future behavior, you are setting healthy emotional boundaries for yourself at work Sometimes we sct a boundnry that is a combination of both a physical and emotional one: 35 One example of this is being repeatedly asked to work late during the weelc/wcekends or v hile on vacation. Another example is being required to see too many clients or patients to the point we feel tired at the end of the day and exhausted by Friday. Often, the above workplace demands lead to increased stress and a high potential for burnout (倦怠) over time Mental boundaries are relatcd to our beliefs, valucs, cultural norms, ethics (道德), and standards Por example, you value a workplace culture that treats employees and clients with respect and dignity and acts ethically. After six months, you realize that company leaders are repeatedly behaving in ways not consistent with this. 36 Over time, this may lead to significant stress and physical symptoms within. 37 Boundaries serve many functions. They hclp protect us, clarify our responsibility preserve our physical and emotional energy, and live our values and standards. Learning the skill of boundary setting helps empower us to prioritize our values and well-being and better manage our stress, Identifying, setting, and maintaining boundaries are skills-valuable skills that, unfortunately we are often not taught in school or the workplace A. Why are boundaries important? B. However, they are equally, if not more, important 二. Therefore we nced to tell the difference between them D. Settirg a boundary in the above example may be quite helpful 第6页共10页 进 扫描全能王 创建 E. Boundancs can be physical, mental, emotional, tangible, or intangible A Your values and cthical standards don't match with your company's, which likcly will lcad t internal conflict G.
