A few years ago, it seemed like Taylor Swift never went anywhere without a large group of friends. No matter what event she attended, a list squad (小队) — which included famous people like Selena Gomez, Zen d and God Ha did — would be right by her side.
But now Swift wants fans to know that her friendships weren’t as perfect as she tried to make people believe. In fact, she says she was using her friend group to hide her insecurity (不安全) of feeling “uncool” and “unpopular”. Swift says she went out of her way to show off her squad because she didn’t have many friends when she was younger — a memory that still bothered her years later. “Never being popular as a kid was always an insecurity for me,” she says.
When she became famous, Swift became obsessed (沉迷) with showing off her popularity. “In my twenties, I found myself surrounded by girls who wanted to be my friends,” Swift explains. “So I celebrated my newfound acceptance into a sisterhood.” But by constantly putting her friends on display, Swift failed to consider how bad her fans might feel about themselves because they didn’t have a squad like hers. “I didn’t realize that other people might still feel the way I did when I felt so alone,” she says.
As she became older and more confident in herself, Swift started focusing on the quality of her friends, not the quantity (数量). She says she finally understands that the size of her group doesn’t mean how “cool” she is. To her, it’s much more important to have a few friends who can be trusted rather than a large group of “fair-weather” friends.
While Swift still values her friends she has in her life, she no longer feels the pressure to show off them for the sake of impressing others. “For too long, the opinions of strangers affected how I viewed things. But now I learn not to let outside opinions affect my own life choices.”
4. What made Swift know old list squad?
A. The popularity of her friends.
B. Her childhood experience.
C. The support of her fans.
D. Her strong social influence.
5. What does paragraph 4 intend to tell us?
A. We should make real friends.
B. It is important to trust our friends.
C. Our friends can affect our behavior.
D. There are many ways of making friends.
6. What does the underlined word “sake” probably mean in the last paragraph?
A. Request. B. Advice. C. Method. D. Purpose.
7. From which is the text probably taken?
A. A scientific report. B. A social newspaper.
C. A travel magazine. D. A movie poster.
C
We can learn to be happy but only get lasting benefits if we keep practicing, a new study has revealed.
The team behind the University of Bristol’s Science of Happiness course had already discovered that teaching students the latest scientific studies on happiness markedly improved their well-being. However, their latest study found that these well-being boosts are short-lived unless the evidence-informed habits learned in the course — such as gratitude, exercise, or run — are kept up over the long term.
Senior author Professor Bruce Hood said, “It’s like going to the gym — we can’t expect to do one class and be fit forever. Just as with physical health, we have to continuously work on our mental health; otherwise, the improvements will be temporary.”
Launched in 2018, the University of Bristol’s Science of Happiness course was the first of its kind in the UK. It involves no exams or coursework and teaches students what the latest peer-reviewed studies in psychology and neuroscience say really makes us happy. Students who took the course reported a 10% to 15% improvement in well-being. However, only those who continued implementing the course learning maintained that improved well-being when they were surveyed again two years later.
Professor Hood said, “This study shows that just doing a course is just the start. You must commit to using what you learn on a regular basis. Much of what we teach revolves around positive psychological interventions that take your attention from yourself by helping others, being with friends, or being grateful. This is the opposite of the current ‘self-care’ doctrine (学说), but countless studies have shown that getting out of our own heads helps get us away from negative thoughts, which can be the basis of so many mental health problems.”
8. What does the study find about happiness?
A. Happiness can be learned, but we have to work at it.
B. Financial success does not produce lasting happiness.
C. Happiness is the ability to make the most of what we have.
D. Trying too hard to find happiness may have the opposite effect.
9. What can we learn from Professor Hood’s words?
A. Learning has got to be active and experiential.
B. Mental health is as important as physical health.
C. Maintaining happiness requires continuous effort.
D. Exercise is the best way to keep a healthy lifestyle.
10. What words can best describe the course?
A. Long and complex. B. Pioneering and useful.
C. Cheap and professional. D. Interesting and educational.
11. How can we improve mental health according to the last paragraph?
A. By interacting with others. B. By focusing on ourselves.
C. By learning a new course. D. By avoiding negative friends.
D
In the coming decade, space agencies and private space companies like SpaceX are planning to build a base on the Moon and Mars. While scientists are already building rockets for the journey, for long-term human settlements on them, astronauts will need fuel to carry out daily tasks. Many have suggested hydrogen (氢). But a group of scientists is working on turning CO2 in the atmosphere into jet fuel. As Mars is rich in CO2 and the lunar surface has a high concentration of CO2, it may be a feasible solution.
For now the team of scientists at the University of Oxford is focusing on making jet fuel for the aviation (航空) industry. As the aviation industry releases over 900 million tons of CO2 every year, to battle climate change, it is necessary to turn the tide. So far aviation scientists have tried to use other energy resources like electricity to fly. But such flights are limited to short distances. For long-distance flights, there is no alternative yet.
The concept of turning CO2 into jet fuel is not new. Previously, other similar methods had to rely on expensive catalysts (催化剂) like cobalt to speed up the chemical reaction. But what Oxford scientists suggest is adding a cheap iron-based catalyst and hydrogen to turn CO2 into liquid fuel. As the process would not require using fossil fuel, it will make the industry carbon neutral (碳中和的).
The scientists tested the new catalyst in a lab at 300°C and at 10 times the air pressure at sea level. The entire process took 20 hours and turned 38 percent of CO2 into new chemicals. About 48 percent of the chemicals were jet fuel hydrocarbon and the rest were other by-products that are used in the production of plastic.
Professor Peter Edwards, a lead scientist in the project, said the new method could be improved in two to three years to produce jet fuel in large quantities. “This is a really exciting, potentially revolutionary advance. Our vision is that the world can see that CO2 collected can be used as an energy carrier to enable sustainable aviation.”
12. Which word can best explain “feasible” underlined in paragraph 1?
A. Unique. B. Practical. C. Time-tested. D. Quick.
13. What problem does the aviation industry face?
A. It is suffering from a serious fuel shortage.
B. The traditional jet fuel is much too expensive.
C. Climate change partly disturbs long-distance flights.
D. Its alternative energy resources are not powerful enough.
14. What do we know about the Oxford scientists’ method of fuel-making?
A. It is green and cost-saving.
B. It is complex and time-consuming.
C. It runs tests in natural environment.
D. It starts with immediate chemical reaction.
15. What’s the purpose of the author?
A. To attract people to explore the space.
B To inform us of a breakthrough in fuel research.
C. To warn us the dangers of climate change.
D. To encourage us to work in the aviation industry.

A few years ago, it seemed like Taylor Swift never went anywhere without a large group of friends. No matter what event she attended, a list squad (小队) — which included famous people like Selena Gomez, Zen d and God Ha did — would be right by her side.
But now Swift wants fans to know that her friendships weren’t as perfect as she tried to make people believe. In fact, she says she was using her friend group to hide her insecurity (不安全) of feeling “uncool” and “unpopular”. Swift says she went out of her way to show off her squad because she didn’t have many friends when she was younger — a memory that still bothered her years later. “Never being popular as a kid was always an insecurity for me,” she says.
When she became famous, Swift became obsessed (沉迷) with showing off her popularity. “In my twenties, I found myself surrounded by girls who wanted to be my friends,” Swift explains. “So I celebrated my newfound acceptance into a sisterhood.” But by constantly putting her friends on display, Swift failed to consider how bad her fans might feel about themselves because they didn’t have a squad like hers. “I didn’t realize that other people might still feel the way I did when I felt so alone,” she says.
As she became older and more confident in herself, Swift started focusing on the quality of her friends, not the quantity (数量). She says she finally understands that the size of her group doesn’t mean how “cool” she is. To her, it’s much more important to have a few friends who can be trusted rather than a large group of “fair-weather” friends.
While Swift still values her friends she has in her life, she no longer feels the pressure to show off them for the sake of impressing others. “For too long, the opinions of strangers affected how I viewed things. But now I learn not to let outside opinions affect my own life choices.”
4. What made Swift know old list squad?
A. The popularity of her friends.
B. Her childhood experience.
C. The support of her fans.
D. Her strong social influence.
5. What does paragraph 4 intend to tell us?
A We should make real friends.
B. It is important to trust our friends.
C. Our friends can affect our behavior.
D. There are many ways of making friends.
6. What does the underlined word “sake” probably mean in the last paragraph?
A. Request. B. Advice. C. Method. D. Purpose.
7. From which is the text probably taken?
A. A scientific report. B. A social newspaper.
C. A travel magazine. D. A movie poster.
【答案】4. B 5. A 6. D 7. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文,本文主要讲述著名歌手Taylor Swift由于童年时期不受欢迎的经历喜欢带着一群朋友团,后来随着年龄的增长和自信心的增强,Swift开始关注朋友的质量,学会了不让外界的观点影响自己的人生选择。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Swift says she went out of her way to show off her squad because she didn’t have many friends when she was younger — a memory that still bothered her years later.(Swift说,她特意去炫耀她的团队,因为她年轻的时候没有很多朋友——多年后这段记忆仍然困扰着她)”可知,童年时期的经历让Swift认识了她的朋友小分队。故选B。
【5题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第四段“As she became older and more confident in herself, Swift started focusing on the quality of her friends, not the quantity(数量). She says she finally understands that the size of her group doesn’t mean how “cool” she is. To her, it’s much more important to have a few friends who can be trusted rather than a large group of “fair- weather” friends.(随着年龄的增长和自信心的增强,Swift开始关注朋友的质量,而不是数量。她说她终于明白,她的团队规模并不意味着她有多“酷”。对她来说,有几个可以信任的朋友比一大群“酒肉朋友”重要得多)”可知,本段主要告诉我们要结交真正的朋友。故选A。
【6题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段中“In fact, she says she was using her friend group to hide her insecurity (不安全) of feeling “uncool” and “unpopular”. Swift says she went out of her way to show off her squad(事实上,她说她是在利用她的朋友群来隐藏她的不安全感,因为她觉得自己“不酷”、“不受欢迎”。Swift说,她特意去炫耀她的团队)”以及划线词后“of impressing others(给别人留下深刻印象)”可知,Swift炫耀自己的朋友来隐藏自己的不安全感,推知划线词所在句意为“虽然Swift仍然珍惜她生命中的朋友,但她不再感到为了给别人留下深刻印象而炫耀他们的压力”,sake意为“目的”。故选D。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据全文内容,结合第四段中“As she became older and more confident in herself, Swift started focusing on the quality of her friends, not the quantity (数量).(随着年龄的增长和自信心的增强,Swift开始关注朋友的质量,而不是数量)”和最后一段中“For too long, the opinions of strangers affected how I viewed things. But now I learn not to let outside opinions affect my own life choices.(很长一段时间以来,陌生人的观点影响了我对事物的看法。但现在我学会了不让外界的观点影响我自己的人生选择)”可知,本文主要讲述著名歌手Taylor Swift由于童年时期不受欢迎的经历喜欢带着一群朋友团,后来随着年龄的增长和自信心的增强,Swift开始关注朋友的质量,学会了不让外界的观点影响自己的人生选择,是关于友谊的,应是出自社交报纸。故选B。

We can learn to be happy but only get lasting benefits if we keep practicing, a new study has revealed.
The team behind the University of Bristol’s Science of Happiness course had already discovered that teaching students the latest scientific studies on happiness markedly improved their well-being. However, their latest study found that these well-being boosts are short-lived unless the evidence-informed habits learned in the course — such as gratitude, exercise, or run — are kept up over the long term.
Senior author Professor Bruce Hood said, “It’s like going to the gym — we can’t expect to do one class and be fit forever. Just as with physical health, we have to continuously work on our mental health; otherwise, the improvements will be temporary.”
Launched in 2018, the University of Bristol’s Science of Happiness course was the first of its kind in the UK. It involves no exams or coursework and teaches students what the latest peer-reviewed studies in psychology and neuroscience say really makes us happy. Students who took the course reported a 10% to 15% improvement in well-being. However, only those who continued implementing the course learning maintained that improved well-being when they were surveyed again two years later.
Professor Hood said, “This study shows that just doing a course is just the start. You must commit to using what you learn on a regular basis. Much of what we teach revolves around positive psychological interventions that take your attention from yourself by helping others, being with friends, or being grateful. This is the opposite of the current ‘self-care’ doctrine (学说), but countless studies have shown that getting out of our own heads helps get us away from negative thoughts, which can be the basis of so many mental health problems.”
8. What does the study find about happiness?
A. Happiness can be learned, but we have to work at it.
B. Financial success does not produce lasting happiness.
C. Happiness is the ability to make the most of what we have.
D. Trying too hard to find happiness may have the opposite effect.
9. What can we learn from Professor Hood’s words?
A. Learning has got to be active and experiential.
B. Mental health is as important as physical health.
C. Maintaining happiness requires continuous effort.
D. Exercise is the best way to keep a healthy lifestyle.
10. What words can best describe the course?
A. Long and complex. B. Pioneering and useful.
C. Cheap and professional. D. Interesting and educational.
11. How can we improve mental health according to the last paragraph?
A. By interacting with others. B. By focusing on ourselves.
C. By learning a new course. D. By avoiding negative friends.
【答案】8. A 9. C 10. B 11. A

【11题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Much of what we teach revolves around positive psychological interventions that take your attention from yourself by helping others, being with friends, or being grateful. (我们教的很多东西都围绕着积极的心理干预,通过帮助别人、和朋友在一起或心怀感激,把你的注意力从自己身上转移开。)”可知,我们可以通过与他人互动来改善心理健康。故选A项。

In the coming decade, space agencies and private space companies like SpaceX are planning to build a base on the Moon and Mars. While scientists are already building rockets for the journey, for long-term human settlements on them, astronauts will need fuel to carry out daily tasks. Many have suggested hydrogen (氢). But a group of scientists is working on turning CO2 in the atmosphere into jet fuel. As Mars is rich in CO2 and the lunar surface has a high concentration of CO2, it may be a feasible solution.
For now the team of scientists at the University of Oxford is focusing on making jet fuel for the aviation (航空) industry. As the aviation industry releases over 900 million tons of CO2 every year, to battle climate change, it is necessary to turn the tide. So far aviation scientists have tried to use other energy resources like electricity to fly. But such flights are limited to short distances. For long-distance flights, there is no alternative yet.
The concept of turning CO2 into jet fuel is not new. Previously, other similar methods had to rely on expensive catalysts (催化剂) like cobalt to speed up the chemical reaction. But what Oxford scientists suggest is adding a cheap iron-based catalyst and hydrogen to turn CO2 into liquid fuel. As the process would not require using fossil fuel, it will make the industry carbon neutral (碳中和的).
The scientists tested the new catalyst in a lab at 300°C and at 10 times the air pressure at sea level. The entire process took 20 hours and turned 38 percent of CO2 into new chemicals. About 48 percent of the chemicals were jet fuel hydrocarbon and the rest were other by-products that are used in the production of plastic.
Professor Peter Edwards, a lead scientist in the project, said the new method could be improved in two to three years to produce jet fuel in large quantities. “This is a really exciting, potentially revolutionary advance. Our vision is that the world can see that CO2 collected can be used as an energy carrier to enable sustainable aviation.”
12. Which word can best explain “feasible” underlined in paragraph 1?
A. Unique. B. Practical. C. Time-tested. D. Quick.
13. What problem does the aviation industry face?
A. It is suffering from a serious fuel shortage.
B. The traditional jet fuel is much too expensive.
C. Climate change partly disturbs long-distance flights.
D. Its alternative energy resources are not powerful enough.
14. What do we know about the Oxford scientists’ method of fuel-making?
A. It is green and cost-saving.
B. It is complex and time-consuming.
C. It runs tests in natural environment.
D. It starts with immediate chemical reaction.
15. What’s the purpose of the author?
A. To attract people to explore the space.
B. To inform us of a breakthrough in fuel research.
C. To warn us the dangers of climate change.
D. To encourage us to work in the aviation industry.
【答案】12. B 13. D 14. A 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一组科学家正在致力于把大气中的CO₂转化为喷气燃料。
【12题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词前文“But a group of scientists is working on turning CO2 in the atmosphere into jet fuel. As Mars is rich in CO2 and the lunar surface has a high concentration of CO2(但一组科学家正在研究将大气中的二氧化碳转化为喷气燃料。因为火星富含二氧化碳,而月球表面的二氧化碳浓度很高)”可知,科学家想把CO₂转化为喷气燃料,且火星和月球表面CO₂充足,所以这一想法很可行。所以划线单词feasible意为“切实可行的”,和B选项“Practical”意思相近。故选B。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“So far aviation scientists have tried to use other energy resources like electricity to fly. But such flights are limited to short distances. For long-distance flights, there is no alternative yet.(到目前为止,航空科学家已经尝试使用电力等其他能源来飞行。但这种飞行只限于短途飞行。对于长途飞行来说,目前还没有其他选择。)”可知,航空业面临的问题是它的替代能源还不够强大。故选D。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Previously, other similar methods had to rely on expensive catalysts (催化剂) like cobalt to speed up the chemical reaction. But what Oxford scientists suggest is adding a cheap iron-based catalyst and hydrogen to turn CO2 into liquid fuel. As the process would not require using fossil fuel, it will make the industry carbon neutral (碳中和的).(以前,其他类似的方法必须依靠昂贵的催化剂,如钴来加速化学反应。但牛津大学的科学家们建议,加入一种廉价的铁基催化剂和氢,将二氧化碳转化为液体燃料。由于该过程不需要使用化石燃料,它将使该行业实现碳中和。)”可知,把CO₂转化为液体燃料无需昂贵的催化剂,也能达到碳中和,可得出牛津大学科学家的燃料制造方法是环保和节省成本的。故选A。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。由第一段中的“But a group of scientists is working on turning CO2 in the atmosphere into jet fuel.(但一组科学家正在研究将大气中的二氧化碳转化为喷气燃料。)”和下文对此研究内容与过程的介绍可知,文章介绍了一组科学家正在致力于把大气中的CO₂转化为喷气燃料,因此本文的目的是告诉我们燃料研究的突破,故选B。
