Such distractions can sometimes lead to mistakes on homework or exams. However, research suggests that regular practice of meditation (冥想) can help us realize these distracting thoughts and feelings, and can make it easier to control them. 26. For students, what may distracting thoughts lead to? A. Relaxed feelings. B. Ways to manage time better. C. Getting high marks. D. Mistakes on homework or exams. 27. Which of the following is not a distracting thought while taking exams? A. Wondering whether I am going to fail or not. B. Always checking the time to see how much is left. C. Working on the questions and solving them step by step. D. Thinking about the coming winter holiday with my best friend. 28. What should we focus on during the meditation practice? A. Breath. B. Health. C. Results. D. Feelings. B What do moviemakers do when they want to know what a black hole looks like? Quick, get me a scientist! Mika McKinnon is a geologist (地质学家) and physicist in Canada. She also works as a scientist adviser to Hollywood. We asked her some questions about her job. How did you get interested in science? I watched too much about Star Trek as a kid. I am a huge fan of science fiction. When I asked my mum why the sky was blue, she would make me research it and actually learn the answers. So I learnt that science is something you can study anywhere, anytime. How did you start working in the movies? A movie company came to my university looking for a “string theorist” (a kind of atom scientist). I thought they were saying “string theorist” because that was the smartest scientist they could think of. I said, “You don’t need a ‘string theorist’, you need me!” So I went to work. What do you do at work? I first worked on the TV show Stargate, in the prop department, which is in charge of anything an actor touches. They would lend me out to people decorating sets and doing special effects, the writers’ room, and anybody who wanted to ask a scientist questions. Then I worked with a movie company to create story ideas. Most science fiction is about “what if” questions. What if the speed of light were different? What if we had a colony (聚居地) on Mars? What if we could travel to another solar system in the blink of an eye? I realized how useful it was for storytellers to be able to ask all those what-ifs and actually get answers. Why does it matter to get the science right in a made-up story? That was one of my first questions too. One of the writers told me that by getting things right when you can, you get everyone to believe in your world and your story. It allows storytellers to have more outrageous plots. I also think real science is often more interesting than fiction. There are so many things in this world that are stranger and more unusual than we imagine. So telling the truth can actually be a way of stretching belief. 29. What made Mika McKinnon interested in science? A. Working at a university. B. Watching Star Trek as a child. C. Learning about the blue sky in the film. D. Discussing science problems with friends. 30. Why did Mika McKinnon work with a movie company? A. To act in some films. B. To create story ideas. C. To help decorate rooms. D. To manage the things actors need. 31. Why is it important to get the science right in a made-up story? A. Because it gets everyone to believe in the story. B. Because it makes fans of science fiction moved. C. Because it helps storytellers to win several awards. D. Because it lets students become interested in science. 32. Which of the following can best describe Mika McKinnon? A. Shy and friendly. B. Patient and modest. C. Caring and humorous. D. Curious and creative. C It was December and the snow was falling quietly outside. The four March sisters were sitting around the fire in the parlor (客厅). They were knitting socks for soldiers. There was a war and everyone had to help. Meg was the oldest of the four sisters. She was sixteen. She was very pretty and she loved pretty clothes. Jo was fifteen. She was very tall and thin. She was different from Meg. She didn’t care about dresses or hairstyles. She was a tomboy (假小子). Beth was thirteen. She was very shy and quiet and she seemed to live in a happy world of her own. The youngest, Amy looked like a snow princess with her blue eyes and blonde hair. She loved beautiful things and she was a little vain (虚荣的). She also thought that she was a very important person. “Christmas isn’t Christmas without any presents,” Jo said sadly. “I hate being poor!” Meg said, looking at her old dress. “Some girls have lots of nice things, and other girls have nothing at all,” said Amy. “I don’t think it’s fair.” “But we’ve got Father and Mother, and each other,” said Beth. The four sisters looked happy for a moment when they remembered this. Then Jo said, “But we haven’t got Father.” Their smiles suddenly disappeared. Mr March was far away with the soldiers. “Mother says our men are suffering and we mustn’t spend money for pleasure,” Meg said. “That’s why we can’t have presents this year.” “Well, each of us has a dollar to spend,” said Jo. “What can the army do with four dollars? Nothing! I don’t expect anything from Mother but I’d like to buy a book for myself.” Jo loved reading and she had a passion for books. “I wanted to spend mine on some new music,” said Beth. She played the piano and she loved singing. “I’m going to buy a box of drawing pencils. I really need them,” said Amy. She wanted to be an artist. “Mother didn’t say anything about spending our own money,” cried Jo. “We work hard for it, so let’s buy what we want and have a little fun.” It was true. The two older sisters had jobs. Meg worked as a teacher for the King family and Jo looked after Aunt March, their father’s rich, bad-tempered old aunt. Beth and Amy helped with the housework. —Adapted from Little Women 33. What made the four March sisters look happy for a moment? A. Their father being away with the soldiers. B. They have got their parents and each other. C. The money they would make by working hard. D. The presents they would receive for Christmas 34. Why couldn’t the March sisters have presents for Christmas this year? A. Because they lived a poor life. B. Because it was snowing heavily. C. Because their father was not at home. D. Because the men were suffering in the war. 35. What did Beth want to spend her dollar on? A. A beautiful dress. B. An interesting book. C. Some new music. D. A box of drawing pencils. 36. What does the underlined word “It” refer to in the last paragraph? A. They bought what they want. B. They got nothing from their mother. C. They had a little fun with each other. D. They worked hard for their own money. D “Your personality has three different layers (层),” says Robyn Fivush, a psychologist at Emory University. First, there are your most basic personality traits (特征), including how open you are to new experiences, and whether you like to be with other people or prefer to be alone, and how stressed out you get in challenging situations. Your basic traits are pretty obvious (明显的) even when you’re a baby. “Some babies are a little bit fussier or a little bit more active or a little bit more smiley. Those can develop into more stable personality traits,” Fivush says. “They stay pretty much the same as you grow up.” The next layer of your personality is your experiences. If your family is loving and responsive when you’re a baby, that teaches you “the world is a safe and trusting place, I’m going to be OK, my needs are going to be met, and if anything bad happens, I have people to take care of me,” Fivush says. That feeling of trust and security lasts for your whole life, and it tends to make you more confident and capable of dealing with difficulties when you are an adult. “The third layer is the stories you tell about yourself,” Fivush says. “We all tell stories about our lives, both to ourselves and to other people. Those stories give meaning to your experiences. They can be stories about your own life—like how much you loved your science teacher, what a great time you had when she helped you with your science fair project, and how that made you want to be a scientist. But your family’s stories are equally important.” Knowing about how your parents met, or what your grandmother’s childhood was like, helps you see where you come from. And talking with your family about both the happy and sad times you’ve experienced can help you understand those events more clearly and learn different ways to deal with challenges. Family stories don’t just teach you who you are—they help you figure out who you want to be. 37. According to the passage, which of the following is one of a person’s most basic personality traits? A. Being open to new experiences. B. Growing up in a wealthy family. C. Sharing family stories with teachers. D. Understanding events in an easy way. 38. How do our basic personality traits develop according to Robyn Fivush? A. They change completely as we grow up. B. They are influenced only by our experiences. C. They stay almost the same from when we are babies. D They are formed by the stories we tell about ourselves. 39. What will a man most probably be like if he grows up in a loving family? A. Confident. B. Generous. C. Honest. D. Helpful. 40. Why are family stories important? A. Because they can make your dream come true. B. Because they can make you feel happy and relaxed. C. Because they can help you understand who you want to be. D. Because they can help you deal with any difficulties you meet. 非选择题（共50分） 四、填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 根据括号中所给的汉语写出单词。 41.

Do you lie on your bed and scroll (滚屏) through your phone? Many people find that this kind of entertainment (娱乐) only brings boredom and emptiness. Contrary to what many people may think, play isn’t just wasted time. Having the ability to play and relax meaningfully during your leisure time is important. “Leisure doesn’t improve quality of life unless one knows how to use it effectively,” James Wallman, the author of Time and How to Spend It, told CNBC, explaining that some experiences are “junk experiences” while others are like “superfoods”. The “superfood” activities put you into a state of “flow”, which is “about being in the present zone and really enjoying yourself”, added Wallman. Any pleasurable activity that truly challenges us has the potential (潜力) to lead to the flow-state. These “superfoods” help you achieve a higher “leisure quotient” (LQ, 玩商). LQ is an index (指数) used to describe one’s ability to relax and play. A high LQ usually means that a person has good control over their life, knows how to develop their potential and keeps a balanced lifestyle that makes them healthier and happier, according to China Daily. Psychological (心理学的) research shows that people with high LQ scores feel happier and generally avoid depression and other mental illnesses. Meanwhile, Kenichi Ohmae, a Japanese management expert, points out that those who can play will succeed. Instead of doing passive activities like scrolling through short videos, people with high LQ scores actively select activities that suit their interests and strengths, giving them consistent (持续的) positive feedback. According to Wallman, examples of this positive feedback include: a memorable story you can share with others; a new skill or a different world view; greater engagement with the real world; and improved relationships or a higher social status. The next time you find yourself bored with nothing to do, try engaging in some experiences that could benefit you or add to your life. It’s never too late to improve your LQ! Directed leisure is important for living a fulfilling life Introduction ● Many people think that passive activities like scrolling through your phone only bring boredom and emptiness. The ____56____ of play ● Play isn’t a waste of time, ____57____, it can improve your quality of life if you know how to use it effectively and meaningfully. “Superfood” activities ●“Superfood” activities are full of pleasure and ____58____ and they can help lead you to a state of “flow”. ● “Superfood” activities meet people’s interests, play to their strengths and ____59____ them with positive feedback.
