It is as old as the United States. The favorite day to be there is March 19. This is the day when the swallows return. Swallows are small birds with beautiful, long tails. They fly every year from Argentina and always arrive on the same date. People wait all day to watch for them. First, they just see a few swallows. Then more of the birds arrive. Soon the sky is full of them. On October 23, the swallows leave San Juan Capistrano. They fly back to Argentina. When it is cold in California, it is hot in Argentina. That is why these interesting birds live in two different countries. They like to be where the weather is warm. Many Americans like to watch birds. In the eastern states, where the winters are very cold. the most popular bird is the robin. No one hears its happy song when the snow begins to fall in November. The robins fly to Mexico to find warm weather. After a few months the robins return and the people are happy to see them. The people know that spring is near. 第二部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分50分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A Madrid’s Incredible Museums CaixaForum CaixaForum is a museum and cultural center that occupies an old power plant.

The name is a combination of “sport” and the Japanese word for rubbish, “gomi”. During the game, you’re given an area of roughly 1.5 sq km, and have to collect as much litter as possible within an hour or so, with some items awarded more points than others. I participated in the UK SpoGomi competition held in London this August. My teammates were my husband Alex and his brother Jonny. We won by 33 points. We were then heading for the World Cup in Tokyo. The night we arrived, we walked around the competition area, which was in the busy commercial Shibuya district. We thought about the profile of people who drop litter: probably typically younger people or people who were drinking. That helped us narrow down where to go. So we made note of areas with lots of bars. With 21 nations participating, the competition of the World Cup was intense. At one point, the members of another team, came over to us and tried to pick rubbish out of our bag. After the first half, Japan came top, we were second and the Brazilian team was third. My muscles were aching and I felt completely wiped out from the heat of Tokyo on a sunny day. I didn’t have much more energy, and I remember Alex and Jonny saying the same, but we had this feeling of being on the edge of something amazing. We had to just keep pushing. We pulled ahead in the second half and ended up coming first, with 57 kg of rubbish collected. Before SpoGomi, I wouldn’t have imagined myself as someone who picked litter up off the street. At the early stage of our training, we were so bad at finding litter. Then, just after the London competition, on the way home, we saw so much. We were just much aware of it. Once you’re drawn into SpoGomi, your attitude towards litter and how you contribute completely changes. 24. Which statement defines SpoGomi? A. A litter-picking contest. B. A Japanese word game. C. A recycling competition. D. A marathon originating in Japan. 25. What did the author’s team do to prepare for the World Cup? A. They talked with young locals. B. They studied the rules of the sport. C. They went to bars to relax their minds. D. They made an exploration of the playing area. 26. How might the author describe the World Cup? A. Well-ordered B. Mentally absorbing C. Back-breaking D. Culturally shocking 27. What change did the author experience through SpoGomi? A. Improved physical fitness. B. Appreciation for Japanese culture. C. Increased environmental awareness. D. International recognition as a World Cup champion. 【答案】24. A 25. D 26. C 27. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了作者参与SpoGomi这项起源于日本的捡垃圾比赛的经历。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“The name is a combination of “sport” and the Japanese word for rubbish, “gomi”. During the game, you’re given an area of roughly 1.5 sq km, and have to collect as much litter as possible within an hour or so, with some items awarded more points than others. (这个名字是“运动”和日语中表示垃圾的词“gomi”的组合。在游戏中，你会得到一个大约1.5平方公里的区域，并且必须在大约一个小时内尽可能多地收集垃圾，其中一些物品比其他物品获得更多的分数。)”可知，SpoGomi是一个捡垃圾比赛，故选A项。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“We were then heading for the World Cup in Tokyo. The night we arrived, we walked around the competition area, which was in the busy commercial Shibuya district. We thought about the profile of people who drop litter: probably typically younger people or people who were drinking. That helped us narrow down where to go. (我们当时正前往东京世界杯。我们到达的当晚，在位于繁华商业区涩谷的比赛区域附近散步。我们思考了乱丢垃圾的人的特征：可能通常是年轻人或者正在喝酒的人。这帮助我们缩小了行动范围。)”可知，作者团队到达东京世界杯比赛场地后，在比赛区域四处走动进行了考察，这有助于他们确定要去的地方，也就是为比赛做准备，故选D项。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“My muscles were aching and I felt completely wiped out from the heat of Tokyo on a sunny day. I didn’t have much more energy, and I remember Alex and Jonny saying the same, but we had this feeling of being on the edge of something amazing. (我的肌肉酸痛，在阳光明媚的日子里，我感觉完全被东京的炎热所消磨殆尽。我没有太多的精力，我记得Alex和Jonny也说过同样的话，但我们有一种感觉，就像我们正处于神奇事物的边缘。)”可知，比赛过程很激烈，作者肌肉酸痛、精疲力竭，所以作者可能会用Back-breaking(累人的、辛苦的)来描述世界杯比赛，故选C项 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Before SpoGomi, I wouldn’t have imagined myself as someone who picked litter up off the street. At the early stage of our training, we were so bad at finding litter. Then, just after the London competition, on the way home, we saw so much. We were just much aware of it. Once you’re drawn into SpoGomi, your attitude towards litter and how you contribute completely changes. (在SpoGomi之前，我不会想象自己是一个从街上捡垃圾的人。在我们培训的早期阶段，我们非常不擅长寻找垃圾。然后，就在伦敦比赛结束后，在回家的路上，我们看到了很多东西。我们只是非常清楚这一点。一旦你被SpoGomi吸引，你对垃圾的态度以及你如何贡献就会完全改变。)”可知，参与SpoGomi活动后，作者对垃圾的态度以及自身贡献方式完全改变了，也就是环保意识增强了，故选C项。 C Imagine you are on the lookout in a clothing store for a shirt to wear to a dinner party next week. You find the perfect black shirt and look at the price tag (价签) —$29. 99. You decide that this is too expensive because the material seems rough. As you put the shirt back, you notice a big red sign. The sign reads “50% off” in the middle with 60 dollars crossed out on the top followed by the new price of 29. 99 dollars on the bottom. It becomes a no-brainer and you immediately walk towards the cash register completely forgetting about the possibility of the material being terribly rough. What just happened? Why do you think you did not want to buy the shirt when it was $29.99 but immediately bought it when you noticed it used to be $60? It turns out that you just fell into the trap of the anchoring bias. The anchoring bias specially concentrates on the human tendency to make judgments that are biased toward an initially presented valued, which is $29.99 in the above case. The anchoring bias is extremely common in all forms of human judgment; however, such a phenomenon varies from person to person depending on individual differences in prior knowledge. Research has found that anchoring is regulated by one’s knowledge about the particular target. The more an individual knows, the more certain he or she is, and therefore the narrower the range of probable values. In contrast, the less someone knows about the target, the wider the range of likely values as one might only be aware of the general category that the target belongs to rather than the exact value itself. Elements such as time pressure and cognitive load (认知负荷) can greatly influence how well one is able to thoroughly access relevant information from their knowledge base. In particular, research has found that those who have a lower cognitive load have a higher ability to engage in deeper thinking as well as depend more upon background knowledge to develop concrete answers. 28. Why did you buy the shirt? A. It felt comfortable. B. You were in a rush. C. You considered it a good deal. D. It qualified as a nice party shirt. 29. The “anchoring bias” underlined in paragraph 2 refers to a phenomenon when someone ______. A. make unwilling decisions without thinking B. prioritizes price over quality when shopping C. forgets information quickly after learning it D. relies heavily on previous information received 30. What influences the strength of the anchoring effect on a person? A. Their emotional state. B. Their sense of values. C. Their knowledge base. D. Their shopping frequency. 31. Under which circumstance is the anchoring bias most problematic? A. One has a higher cognitive load. B. There is too much time to make a decision. C. The anchor information is presented visually. D. One is highly motivated to make the right choice. 【答案】28. C 29. D 30. C 31. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章解释了什么是锚定偏见和影响锚定偏见的因素。 【28题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Imagine you are on the lookout in a clothing store for a shirt to wear to a dinner party next week. You find the perfect black shirt and look at the price tag (价签) —$29. 99. You decide that this is too expensive because the material seems rough. As you put the shirt back, you notice a big red sign. The sign reads “50% off” in the middle with 60 dollars crossed out on the top followed by the new price of 29. 99 dollars on the bottom. It becomes a no-brainer and you immediately walk towards the cash register completely forgetting about the possibility of the material being terribly rough.(想象一下，你正在一家服装店寻找一件衬衫，下周要穿去参加一个晚宴。你找到了一件完美的黑色衬衫，看看价格标签——29.99美元。你觉得太贵了，因为材料看起来很粗糙。当你把衬衫放回去时，你注意到一个大大的红色标志。中间的牌子上写着“五折”，上面划掉了60美元，下面是29.99美元的新价格。这变成了一个无需动脑筋的事情，你立即走向收银机，完全忘记了材料非常粗糙的可能性。)”可知，你买这件衬衫是因为它的价格由60美元降到29.99美元，你认为划算。故选C项。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据划线单词后面的解释“The anchoring bias specially concentrates on the human tendency to make judgments that are biased toward an initially presented valued, which is $29.99 in the above case.(锚定偏见特别关注人类倾向于做出偏向于初始呈现值的判断，在上述情况下为29.99美元。)”可知，anchoring bias指的是有人很大程度上依赖于先前收到的信息做出判断这一现象。故选D项。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段的句子“The anchoring bias is extremely common in all forms of human judgment; however, such a phenomenon varies from person to person depending on individual differences in prior knowledge.(锚定偏见在所有形式的人类判断中都非常普遍；然而，这种现象因个体先验知识的差异而有所不同。)”可知，人们已有的知识会影响一个人的锚定效应的强度。故选C项。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Elements such as time pressure and cognitive load (认知负荷) can greatly influence how well one is able to thoroughly access relevant information from their knowledge base. In particular, research has found that those who have a lower cognitive load have a higher ability to engage in deeper thinking as well as depend more upon background knowledge to develop concrete answers. (时间压力和认知负荷等因素会极大地影响一个人从他们的知识库中彻底获取相关信息的能力。特别是，研究发现，那些认知负荷较低的人有更高的能力进行更深层次的思考，并更多地依赖背景知识来制定具体的答案。)”可知，一个人有更高的认知负荷时，锚定偏见是最有问题的。故选A项。 D When I began to learn Chinese, I pursued what many around me saw as an unconventional strategy. Instead of painstakingly writing out characters and practising sentence order, I set out to make as much of a fool of myself as possible. I spoke my mistake-ridden Chinese with friends, annoyed teachers with bad jokes and punished my ears with native music and podcasts. It wasn’t perfect, but it was enough to interview people and read short news articles in just a year. Organizational psychologist Adam Grant neatly sums up this method alongside other systems and qualities in his new book. “Being a creature of discomfort,” Grant writes, can unlock hidden potential to do greater things than their background or experience might suggest. This is essential for more than learning a skill or a language; this is what he says takes individuals to the pinnacle of their industry. Grant writes that universities and companies should take more steps to recognize potential, and where an individual has overcome difficulties like growing up in poverty. This quantifying the unquantifiable could be done, he suggests, by looking at the rate of change of a student’s grades as well as the final score. The example of Mexican-American Jose Hernandez comes to mind. The astronaut attained his dream of joining NASA after being rejected countless times by a system that did not take into account his different experiences working as a farm labourer when he was young and overcoming struggles. Systems, therefore, need to change to find the best people. This is also a key message in the book: Improve the pipelines so that better people come up in the future. 32. What did the author do to learn Chinese initially? A. He read the latest stories. B. He wrote out characters carefully. C. He did sentence order exercises regularly. D. He spoke the language regardless of errors. 33. What can lead one to remarkable success according to Grant? A. Putting oneself in uncomfortable situations. B. Having a strong educational background. C. Obtaining relevant work experience. D. Keeping comfortable relationships. 34. What does Grant expects schools to do? A. Prioritize students’ social skills. B. Focus on students’ final assessment results. C. Track the progress of students’ performance. D. Ask students to learn from great individuals. 35. What might be the title for Grant’s new book? A. Breaking Through Rejections: You Are Your Own Boss B. Hidden Potential: The Science of Achieving Greater Things C. The Unconventional Path: Breaking Norms for Personal Growth D. From Poverty to Pinnacle: Redefining Success Through Strategies 【答案】32. D 33. A 34. C 35. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章主要通过作者自身学习中文的经历并引用Grant的观点，告诉我们要学会挖掘自身的潜力。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Instead of painstakingly writing out characters and practising sentence order, I set out to make as much of a fool of myself as possible. I spoke my mistake-ridden Chinese with friends, annoyed teachers with bad jokes and punished my ears with native music and podcasts.(我没有煞费苦心地写字，练习句子顺序，而是尽可能地让自己出丑。我和朋友们说着错漏百出的中文，用蹩脚的笑话惹恼老师，用本土音乐和播客来惩罚我的耳朵)”可知，作者最初通过不顾错误地说这种语言来学习中文。故选D。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段““Being a creature of discomfort,” Grant writes, can unlock hidden potential to do greater things than their background or experience might suggest. This is essential for more than learning a skill or a language; this is what he says takes individuals to the pinnacle of their industry.(格兰特写道：“做一个不舒服的人”，可以释放隐藏的潜力，让他们做比背景或经历所暗示的更伟大的事情。这不仅是学习一门技能或一门语言的必要条件；这就是他所说的将个人带到行业巅峰的原因)”可知，根据格兰特的观点，把自己置于不舒服的境地能让一个人取得非凡的成功。故选A。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“This quantifying the unquantifiable could be done, he suggests, by looking at the rate of change of a student’s grades as well as the final score.(他建议，通过观察学生的成绩变化率和最终分数，可以对无法量化的东西进行量化)”可知，格兰特希望学校跟踪学生成绩的进步。故选C。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段““Being a creature of discomfort,” Grant writes, can unlock hidden potential to do greater things than their background or experience might suggest. This is essential for more than learning a skill or a language; this is what he says takes individuals to the pinnacle of their industry.(格兰特写道：“做一个不舒服的人”，可以释放隐藏的潜力，让他们做比背景或经历所暗示的更伟大的事情。这不仅是学习一门技能或一门语言的必要条件；这就是他所说的将个人带到行业巅峰的原因)”告诉我们要学会挖掘自身的潜力。可知，B选项“隐藏的潜力：成就伟大事业的科学”最符合Grant书籍的标题。故选B。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 A few years ago, the Saving Sloths team received a phone call. “We found a baby sloth (树懒),” they said. We immediately grabbed our emergency box and went to meet this baby sloth, which I named “Sarita”. ____36____ Up in a big Cecropia tree, they had seen three adult sloths fighting in the morning. At the base of the tree, Sarita was crying. They waited for a while but nobody came for the baby so they picked her up and called us. When we arrived there were three sloths resting high in the tree. We picked Sarita out of her blanket gently and let her cry for her mother. ____37____ A sloth turned her head every time Sarita called, steadily moving down the tree. Standing at the base of the tree, I held the baby as high as I could. As Mom reached the lowest trunk, she decided to move to a tiny tree beside the Ceropia. As if the baby read her mind, ____38____ The small tree suddenly bent under the mom’s weight. Everybody held their breath as the baby was now out of my reach, hanging off the tree with only one hand. Although relatively low, it would still have been more than a 3-meter fall. ____39____ And with a smooth movement, Mom picked her up and hugged her. ____40____ There are not many cases where we can locate the mom of a baby that has fallen down and reunite them.

E 39. A 40. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了救援团队帮助一只与母亲失散的小树懒Sarita重新团聚的故事。 【36题详解】 由上文““We found a baby sloth (树懒),” they said. (他们说：“我们发现了一只树懒宝宝。”)”和下文“We immediately grabbed our emergency box and went to meet this baby sloth, which I named “Sarita”. (我们立即拿起应急箱，去找这只树懒宝宝，我给它起名叫“Sarita”。)”可知，上文说明了救援团队接到电话需要救助小树懒，下文描述去了现场，空处应当是对发现树懒宝宝地点介绍。选项F“The property owners showed us where they had found her. (业主们向我们展示了他们在哪里找到她的。)”能承上启下，符合题意。故选F。 【37题详解】 由上文“When we arrived there were three sloths resting high in the tree. We picked Sarita out of her blanket gently and let her cry for her mother. (当我们到达时，三只树懒高高地在树上休息。我们轻轻地把Sarita从毯子里抱起来，让她为妈妈哭泣。)”及下文“A sloth turned her head every time Sarita called, steadily moving down the tree. (每当Sarita叫树懒的时候，树懒就会转过头来，稳步地往树下爬。)”可知，上文描述了救援人员让Sarita发出声音呼唤母亲的行为，下文则描述了有成年树懒对Sarita的声音作出反应的情况。因此，本空应当是描述成年树懒开始回应Sarita的声音。选项B“Soon there was movement up in the tree. (很快，树上就有动静了)”能承上启下，符合题意。故选B。 【38题详解】 由上文“Standing at the base of the tree, I held the baby as high as I could. As Mom reached the lowest trunk, she decided to move to a tiny tree beside the Ceropia. As if the baby read her mind (我站在树底下，尽可能地把孩子举得高高的。当妈妈到达最低的树干时，她决定搬到Ceropia旁边的一棵小树上。好像孩子读懂了妈妈的心思，)”可知，上文描述了母树懒移动到了一棵小树旁，因此，本空应当是描述Sarita也跟着母树懒的动作做出了反应。选项E“Sarita also reached for this small tree with her little arm. (Sarita也用她的小胳膊伸手去抓这棵小树。)”能承接上文，符合题意。故选E。 【39题详解】 由上文“The small tree suddenly bent under the mom’s weight. Everybody held their breath as the baby was now out of my reach, hanging off the tree with only one hand. Although relatively low, it would still have been more than a 3-meter fall. (小树在妈妈的重压下突然弯了腰。每个人都屏住了呼吸，因为孩子现在已经够不着了，只用一只手挂在树上。虽然相对较低，但坠落高度仍超过3米。)”和下文“And with a smooth movement, Mom picked her up and hugged her. (妈妈平稳地一动，就把她抱了起来，搂在怀里。)”可知，上文描述了小树因为母树懒的重量而弯曲，Sarita悬挂在树上，情况看起来很危险。下文描述树懒妈妈抱住了小树懒，因此，本空应当是对Sarita是否能保持住的情况的描述。选项A“But to our relief, Sarita held on. (但令我们欣慰的是，萨里塔坚持了下来)”能承接上文，符合题意。故选A。 【40题详解】 由上文“And with a smooth movement, Mom picked her up and hugged her. (妈妈平稳地一动，就把她抱了起来，搂在怀里。)”和下文“There are not many cases where we can locate the mom of a baby that has fallen down and reunite them. (很少有机会能找到掉下来的幼崽的母亲并与之团聚。)”可知，上文描述了母树懒顺利地抱起了Sarita，下文描述像这样团聚的机会很少。因此，本空应当是对这一结果的肯定评价。选项D“This is the best outcome we could have hoped for. (这是我们所希望的最好结果。)”能承上启下，符合题意。故选D。 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 The Emmy-winning artist Devine Carama has a cool way to explain the importance of emotional intelligence to young minds.

His half-buttoned white shirt revealed a red striped pajama (睡衣) top underneath, and instead of white school shoes, he had on a pair of bright green sandals that were two sizes too big. The physics teacher’s hand froze in the middle of writing a formula on the blackboard. Mohi murmured, “Sorry, teacher,” and rushed to his seat. Mr. Tan glared at the rest of the students. The chuckles (咯咯笑) quickly died down. Mohi’s classmates always looked forward to Mondays. Nine times out of ten, they would be entertained by Mohi’s late arrival and his odd appearance which usually included inappropriate clothing. That day, it was the pajama top and green sandals. Mohi lived just a street away from the school. He walked to school daily. Students passing by in buses would yell his name at the same time just to see him jump and stop suddenly. When he spotted the merry crowd in the bus, he would wave good-naturedly. Although Mohi was likable, he was too lost in his own thoughts to make friends. His classmates found him amusing but they ignored him most of the time. Only Hamed, who sat next to Mohi, tried to be his friend. The following Monday, Mohi did not turn up at school. His classmates were a little disappointed but quickly forgot about him. After school, Hamed decided to walk over to Mohi’s house to check on him. As he approached the gate, he could hear violin music. “Mohi must be listening to music, since he had never played music at school.” Hamed thought. He called Mohi’s name a few times but there was no response. The gate was not locked. Hamed let himself in. The music played on. 注意： 1. 所续写短文的词数应为150左右； 2. 续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好； Paragraph 1: When Teacher’s Day came around, Hamed had a plan. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: As the last note ended, there was a moment of silence. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 When Teacher’s Day came around, Hamed had a plan. It was the tradition of the school to have a concert for the teachers. Every class had to contribute an item. Hamed convinced the class to let Mohi perform. Short of ideas, the class agreed. On the day of the concert, both the teachers and students were surprised to see the school’s clumsiest student walking on stage with a violin. When he started to play, the audience fell silent. Jaws dropped. As the last note ended, there was a moment of silence. Then the audience erupted into thunderous applause. After the performance, shy and silent as Mohi was, he gave Hamed a big hug. Love may be silent, but it was always there. Since then, Mohi and Hamed have been best friends. With the encouragement of Hamed, Mohi has pursued his dream of being a musician. Not only do friends keep us company but also help us to be better. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Mohi常常穿着怪异且迟到，这让同学们把他当作取乐的对象，尽管他性格和善，但由于总是沉浸在自己的世界里而难以交到朋友，只有Hamed试图和他成为朋友。在之后的一个周一，Mohi没有来学校，同学们稍感失望后便很快遗忘此事，放学后Hamed决定去Mohi家查看情况，当靠近他家大门时能听到小提琴音乐，Hamed 呼喊Mohi名字却无人应答，而门未锁，于是Hamed自行进入，此时音乐仍在持续。Hamed说服了同学让Mohi在教师节音乐会上表演，他的演奏让大家惊叹也得到了大家的掌声。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“当教师节到来时，Hamed有一个计划。”可知，第一段可描写Hamed说服全班同学让Mohi表演，同学和老师们惊讶地看着他拿着小提琴上台，他演奏时所有人陷入了沉默，惊掉了下巴。 ②由第二段首句内容“当最后一个音符结束时，一片沉默。”可知，第二段可描写观众们发出了雷鸣般的掌声，Mohi很害羞，但是给了Hamed一个拥抱，Mohi和Hamed成了最好的朋友，Mohi开始追求成为音乐家的梦想。 2. 续写线索：计划——说服——表演——上台——沉默——掌声——拥抱——朋友——追求梦想——感悟 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①表演：perform /play /act ②说服：convinced /persuaded /prevailed ③最求：pursued /chased /sought 情绪类 ①惊讶：surprised /astonished /amazed ②害羞：shy /bashful /timid 【点睛】【高分句型1】When he started to play, the audience fell silent. (运用了when引导的时间状语从句) 【高分句型2】Not only do friends keep us company but also help us to be better.

The name is a combination of “sport” and the Japanese word for rubbish, “gomi”. During the game, you’re given an area of roughly 1.5 sq km, and have to collect as much litter as possible within an hour or so, with some items awarded more points than others. I participated in the UK SpoGomi competition held in London this August. My teammates were my husband Alex and his brother Jonny. We won by 33 points. We were then heading for the World Cup in Tokyo. The night we arrived, we walked around the competition area, which was in the busy commercial Shibuya district. We thought about the profile of people who drop litter: probably typically younger people or people who were drinking. That helped us narrow down where to go. So we made note of areas with lots of bars. With 21 nations participating, the competition of the World Cup was intense. At one point, the members of another team, came over to us and tried to pick rubbish out of our bag. After the first half, Japan came top, we were second and the Brazilian team was third. My muscles were aching and I felt completely wiped out from the heat of Tokyo on a sunny day. I didn’t have much more energy, and I remember Alex and Jonny saying the same, but we had this feeling of being on the edge of something amazing. We had to just keep pushing. We pulled ahead in the second half and ended up coming first, with 57 kg of rubbish collected. Before SpoGomi, I wouldn’t have imagined myself as someone who picked litter up off the street. At the early stage of our training, we were so bad at finding litter. Then, just after the London competition, on the way home, we saw so much. We were just much aware of it. Once you’re drawn into SpoGomi, your attitude towards litter and how you contribute completely changes. 24. Which statement defines SpoGomi? A. A litter-picking contest. B. A Japanese word game. C. A recycling competition. D. A marathon originating in Japan. 25. What did the author’s team do to prepare for the World Cup? A. They talked with young locals. B. They studied the rules of the sport. C. They went to bars to relax their minds. D. They made an exploration of the playing area. 26. How might the author describe the World Cup? A. Well-ordered B. Mentally absorbing C. Back-breaking D. Culturally shocking 27. What change did the author experience through SpoGomi? A. Improved physical fitness. B. Appreciation for Japanese culture. C. Increased environmental awareness. D. International recognition as a World Cup champion. C Imagine you are on the lookout in a clothing store for a shirt to wear to a dinner party next week. You find the perfect black shirt and look at the price tag (价签) —$29. 99. You decide that this is too expensive because the material seems rough. As you put the shirt back, you notice a big red sign. The sign reads “50% off” in the middle with 60 dollars crossed out on the top followed by the new price of 29. 99 dollars on the bottom. It becomes a no-brainer and you immediately walk towards the cash register completely forgetting about the possibility of the material being terribly rough. What just happened? Why do you think you did not want to buy the shirt when it was $29.99 but immediately bought it when you noticed it used to be $60? It turns out that you just fell into the trap of the anchoring bias. The anchoring bias specially concentrates on the human tendency to make judgments that are biased toward an initially presented valued, which is $29.99 in the above case. The anchoring bias is extremely common in all forms of human judgment; however, such a phenomenon varies from person to person depending on individual differences in prior knowledge. Research has found that anchoring is regulated by one’s knowledge about the particular target. The more an individual knows, the more certain he or she is, and therefore the narrower the range of probable values. In contrast, the less someone knows about the target, the wider the range of likely values as one might only be aware of the general category that the target belongs to rather than the exact value itself. Elements such as time pressure and cognitive load (认知负荷) can greatly influence how well one is able to thoroughly access relevant information from their knowledge base. In particular, research has found that those who have a lower cognitive load have a higher ability to engage in deeper thinking as well as depend more upon background knowledge to develop concrete answers. 28. Why did you buy the shirt? A. It felt comfortable. B. You were in a rush. C. You considered it a good deal. D. It qualified as a nice party shirt. 29. The “anchoring bias” underlined in paragraph 2 refers to a phenomenon when someone ______. A. make unwilling decisions without thinking B. prioritizes price over quality when shopping C. forgets information quickly after learning it D. relies heavily on previous information received 30. What influences the strength of the anchoring effect on a person? A. Their emotional state. B. Their sense of values. C Their knowledge base. D. Their shopping frequency. 31. Under which circumstance is the anchoring bias most problematic? A. One has a higher cognitive load. B. There is too much time to make a decision. C. The anchor information is presented visually. D. One is highly motivated to make the right choice. D When I began to learn Chinese, I pursued what many around me saw as an unconventional strategy. Instead of painstakingly writing out characters and practising sentence order, I set out to make as much of a fool of myself as possible. I spoke my mistake-ridden Chinese with friends, annoyed teachers with bad jokes and punished my ears with native music and podcasts. It wasn’t perfect, but it was enough to interview people and read short news articles in just a year. Organizational psychologist Adam Grant neatly sums up this method alongside other systems and qualities in his new book. “Being a creature of discomfort,” Grant writes, can unlock hidden potential to do greater things than their background or experience might suggest. This is essential for more than learning a skill or a language; this is what he says takes individuals to the pinnacle of their industry. Grant writes that universities and companies should take more steps to recognize potential, and where an individual has overcome difficulties like growing up in poverty. This quantifying the unquantifiable could be done, he suggests, by looking at the rate of change of a student’s grades as well as the final score. The example of Mexican-American Jose Hernandez comes to mind. The astronaut attained his dream of joining NASA after being rejected countless times by a system that did not take into account his different experiences working as a farm labourer when he was young and overcoming struggles. Systems, therefore, need to change to find the best people. This is also a key message in the book: Improve the pipelines so that better people come up in the future. 32. What did the author do to learn Chinese initially? A. He read the latest stories. B. He wrote out characters carefully. C. He did sentence order exercises regularly. D. He spoke the language regardless of errors. 33. What can lead one to remarkable success according to Grant? A. Putting oneself in uncomfortable situations. B. Having a strong educational background. C. Obtaining relevant work experience. D. Keeping comfortable relationships. 34. What does Grant expects schools to do? A. Prioritize students’ social skills. B. Focus on students’ final assessment results. C. Track the progress of students’ performance. D. Ask students to learn from great individuals. 35. What might be the title for Grant’s new book? A. Breaking Through Rejections: You Are Your Own Boss B. Hidden Potential: The Science of Achieving Greater Things C. The Unconventional Path: Breaking Norms for Personal Growth D. From Poverty to Pinnacle: Redefining Success Through Strategies 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 A few years ago, the Saving Sloths team received a phone call. “We found a baby sloth (树懒),” they said. We immediately grabbed our emergency box and went to meet this baby sloth, which I named “Sarita”. ____36____ Up in a big Cecropia tree, they had seen three adult sloths fighting in the morning. At the base of the tree, Sarita was crying. They waited for a while but nobody came for the baby so they picked her up and called us. When we arrived there were three sloths resting high in the tree.

He was a strange sight. His half-buttoned white shirt revealed a red striped pajama (睡衣) top underneath, and instead of white school shoes, he had on a pair of bright green sandals that were two sizes too big. The physics teacher’s hand froze in the middle of writing a formula on the blackboard. Mohi murmured, “Sorry, teacher,” and rushed to his seat. Mr. Tan glared at the rest of the students. The chuckles (咯咯笑) quickly died down. Mohi’s classmates always looked forward to Mondays. Nine times out of ten, they would be entertained by Mohi’s late arrival and his odd appearance which usually included inappropriate clothing. That day, it was the pajama top and green sandals. Mohi lived just a street away from the school. He walked to school daily. Students passing by in buses would yell his name at the same time just to see him jump and stop suddenly. When he spotted the merry crowd in the bus, he would wave good-naturedly. Although Mohi was likable, he was too lost in his own thoughts to make friends. His classmates found him amusing but they ignored him most of the time. Only Hamed, who sat next to Mohi, tried to be his friend. The following Monday, Mohi did not turn up at school. His classmates were a little disappointed but quickly forgot about him. After school, Hamed decided to walk over to Mohi’s house to check on him. As he approached the gate, he could hear violin music. “Mohi must be listening to music, since he had never played music at school.” Hamed thought. He called Mohi’s name a few times but there was no response. The gate was not locked. Hamed let himself in. The music played on. 注意： 1. 所续写短文的词数应为150左右； 2. 续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好； Paragraph 1: When Teacher’s Day came around, Hamed had a plan. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: As the last note ended, there was a moment of silence. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
