How might it be addressed? In the distant past，there were few complaints about loneliness.Indeed，every person in a community including children was up to speed on every detail of the lives of everyone else.Instead of suffering from loneliness，our distant ancestors were oppressed (被压迫) by a lack of privacy.__1__ They facilitate distance.How did loneliness take over contemporary life? Typically，people move away from family and friends for work opportunities.Yet，cities often function as gatherings of relative strangers rather than functional communities.The many people wandering around in a city are irrelevant if we have no social connection with them.Migrants to cities may establish various meaningful social links.__2__ These might be the people we work among，those who frequent a coffee shop，or members of a gym or sports club.Such associations are not made automatically.__3__ In some cases，those who eagerly need social connection can fare poorly in cities. __4__ According to the U．S.Surgeon General's Report on Loneliness，people who spend more time online are lonelier.People who claim thousands of online “friends”are often chronically anxious，disconnected and depressed.Perhaps，they would gain better social bonus by being kind to people in real life. Virtually，not everyone needs constant companionship.This is not merely a question of how extroverted a person is.__5__ People with a strong sense of external purpose barely suffer from loneliness，whether they perfect their dance moves，get involved in political activism or train service dogs.In this vein，anyone who cultivates a love of nature may become a part of the natural world.That is an endless source of peace，happiness，and connection. A．Their habits contributed to loneliness. B．They require openness，initiative and effort. C．Rather，it reflects how someone leads their life. D．Outgoing people will live a busy life with social media. E．Today，social media bring back the invasions of privacy. F．Many turn to social media for companionship with mixed results. G．However，associations are often formed through accidental networks. 【语篇解读】　这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了现代网络社会，孤独感成为健康杀手，并分析了原因，给出了建议。 1．E　根据上文“In the distant past，there were few complaints about loneliness.Indeed，every person in a community including children was up to speed on every detail of the lives of everyone else.Instead of suffering from loneliness，our distant ancestors were oppressed by a lack of privacy.(在遥远的过去，很少有人抱怨孤独。事实上，一个社区里的每个人，包括孩子，都能迅速了解其他人生活的每一个细节。我们的远祖并没有遭受孤独的折磨，而是受到缺乏隐私的压迫)”及下文“They facilitate distance.How did loneliness take over contemporary life？(它们促进了距离。孤独是如何接管当代生活的)”可知，上文主要讲过去我们的祖先的生活，他们不孤独，没有隐私空间，而下文是讲述我们现在的生活，人们常常感到孤独。由此可知，E.Today，social media bring back the invasions of privacy.(今天，社交媒体带来了对隐私的侵犯)符合语境。空后They指代social media。故选E项。 2．G　根据上文“Migrants to cities may establish various meaningful social links.(迁移民到城市可以建立各种有意义的社会联系)”及下文“These might be the people we work among，those who frequent a coffee shop，or members of a gym or sports club.Such associations are not made automatically.(这些人可能是我们的同事，经常去咖啡店的人，或者是健身房或体育俱乐部的成员)”可知，上文说在城市工作可以建立有意义的社会联系，而下文却列举了一些随机组成的社会群体，由此可知，G.However，associations are often formed through accidental networks(然而，联系往往是通过偶然的网络形成的)。符合语境，下文就是列举的一些通过偶然建立的社群。故选G项。 3．B　根据上文“These might be the people we work among，those who frequent a coffee shop，or members of a gym or sports club.Such associations are not made automatically.(这些人可能是我们的同事，经常去咖啡店的人，或者是健身房或体育俱乐部的成员。这种联系不是自动形成的)”可知，这些社群是要主动积极参与。由此可知，B.They require openness，initiative and effort.(它们需要开放、主动和努力)符合语境，其中they指代上文中Such associations。故选B项。 4．F　该空为段首句，应概括下文。根据下文“According to the U．S.Surgeon General's Report on Loneliness，people who spend more time online are lonelier.People who claim thousands of online ‘friends’are often chronically anxious，disconnected and depressed.Perhaps，they would gain better social bonus by being kind to people in real life.(根据美国外科医生关于孤独的报告，花更多时间上网的人更孤独。自称有成千上万在线‘朋友’的人往往长期焦虑、疏离和抑郁。也许，他们会通过在现实生活中对人友善而获得更好的社会奖励)”可知，本段在讲总和在线网友交往的人更孤独，建议和真实生活中的朋友真心交往。由此可知，F.Many turn to social media for companionship with mixed results.(许多人转向社交媒体寻求陪伴，结果好坏参半)符合语境，后文提到了寻找网络朋友的弊端。故选F项。 5．C　根据上文“Virtually，not everyone needs constant companionship.This is not merely a question of how extroverted a person is.(事实上，并不是每个人都需要持续的陪伴。这不仅仅是一个人有多外向的问题)”及下文“People with a strong sense of external purpose barely suffer from loneliness，whether they perfect their dance moves，get involved in political activism or train service dogs.In this vein，anyone who cultivates a love of nature may become a part of the natural world.That is an endless source of peace，happiness，and connection.(外在使命感强的人几乎不会感到孤独，无论是完善自己的舞蹈动作，参与政治活动，还是训练服务犬。从这个意义上说，任何培养对自然的热爱的人都可能成为自然世界的一部分。这是和平、幸福和联系的无尽源泉)”可知，上文指出，有些人并不需要他人的持续陪伴，性格外向程度是一方面，却不仅限于此，由此可知，C.Rather，it reflects how someone leads their life.(相反，它反映了一个人如何过自己的生活)契合上文，有的人不需要他人持续陪伴，这还可能反映了他的生活方式，下文例举了一些生活方式的例子。故选C项。 (三) (2024·河北省邯郸市高三二模)What motivates you to work or study harder? Is it the thought of success and all the amazing things that you can achieve，or is it the fear of failure and worry about all the things that can go wrong for you? __1__ But is one better than the other? A recent study looked at the effect of fear­based strategies on British secondary school students.It found that if a test is seen as important，and students are optimistic that they can succeed，then the fear of failure can be used successfully by teachers to motivate these learners.__2__ In that case，it will in turn lead them to do worse on the test than they would have done otherwise.The study also found that if students are indifferent and don't care about the test in the first place，then，unsurprisingly，the fear of failure is not likely to motivate them. Entrepreneurs often run the risk of failure.It's a fact that many new companies will fail.But does this motivate or hold back business people? __3__ The personal consequences of failure can be significant，and so founders may be motivated to work harder to avoid them.A study carried out on British and Canadian entrepreneurs found that fear of failure can improve problem solving，as people are motivated to anticipate and resolve potential issues.__4__ However，the study also showed that it can lead to increased delay of work，as people focus too much on what they personally fear，rather than what would be best，for the business.If someone is less confident about their business ideas，then they may find their decision­making negatively affected by their fears. __5__ Fear can drive confident people to do better，but it can also expand our doubts and turn them into barriers. A．Again，it's not straightforward. B．The answer，undoubtedly，is “yes”． C．Taken together，fear­based motivation is complicated. D．Generally speaking，good outcomes can be expected by teachers. E．They may also be inspired to innovate and activate their business. F．However，if students lack confidence，fear­based approaches could cause anxiety. G．Leaders，managers and teachers often use one of these ideas to inspire people to achieve more. 【语篇解读】　这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了两种取得更多成就心态，一种是对成功的憧憬，一种是对失败的恐惧。 1．G　根据上文“What motivates you to work or study harder? Is it the thought of success and all the amazing things that you can achieve，or is it the fear of failure and worry about all the things that can go wrong for you? (是什么激励你更加努力地工作或学习？是对成功的憧憬和你能实现的所有惊人的事情，还是对失败的恐惧和对所有可能出错的事情的担忧？)”以及后文“But is one better than the other? (但是一个比另一个好吗？)”可知，上文提到了两种激励人们的方法，推测本句是在说明这些方法的应用。故G选项“领导者、管理者和老师经常使用其中一种想法来激励人们取得更多成就。”符合语境，故选G。 2．F　根据后文“In that case，it will in turn lead them to do worse on the test than they would have done otherwise.(在这种情况下，这反过来会导致他们在考试中表现得更差。)”可知，本句是在说明会导致考试表现更差的情况。故F选项“然而，如果学生缺乏自信，基于恐惧的方法可能会导致焦虑。”符合语境，故选F。 3．A　根据上文“Entrepreneurs often run the risk of failure.It's a fact that many new companies will fail.But does this motivate or hold back business people? (企业家常常冒着失败的风险。事实是，许多新公司将会倒闭。但这是激励还是阻碍了商人呢？)”以及后文“The personal consequences of failure can be significant，and so founders may be motivated to work harder to avoid them.A study carried out on British and Canadian entrepreneurs found that fear of failure can improve problem solving，as people are motivated to anticipate and resolve potential issues.(失败对个人的影响可能很严重，因此创业者可能会更努力地工作以避免失败。一项针对英国和加拿大企业家的研究发现，对失败的恐惧可以提高解决问题的能力，因为人们有动力预测和解决潜在的问题。)”可知，本句主要回答上文失败是激励还是阻碍了商人的问题，且A选项中It对应上文this。故A选项“再次声明，这不是直截了当的。”符合语境，故选A。 4．E　根据上文“A study carried out on British and Canadian entrepreneurs found that fear of failure can improve problem solving，as people are motivated to anticipate and resolve potential issues.(一项针对英国和加拿大企业家的研究发现，对失败的恐惧可以提高解决问题的能力，因为人们有动力预测和解决潜在的问题。)”可知，失败可以激励人们去预测和解决潜在的问题，推测本句承接上文，继续说明对失败的恐惧所带来的好处。故E选项“他们也可能受到启发去创新和激活他们的业务”符合语境，故选E。 5．C　根据后文“Fear can drive confident people to do better，but it can also expand our doubts and turn them into barriers.(恐惧可以驱使自信的人做得更好，但它也可以扩大我们的疑虑，把它们变成障碍。)”可知，后文提到恐惧可以驱使自信的人做得更好，但也可以扩大我们的疑虑，把它们变成障碍，说明恐惧带来的动力具有两面性、复杂性。故C选项“综上所述，基于恐惧的动机很复杂。”符合语境，故选C。 (四) (2024·广东省广州市高三二模)Have you ever wondered why it feels so satisfying to sing in the shower?
