Like my dad always used to say，“If it isn’t broken，don’t fix it！” But，unfortunately my mental health did “break”．Aged 17 I developed anorexia(神经厌食症)．I didn’t realise at the time.When I was 23，I was found severely clinically anorexic.I had fast-tracked treatment at The Maudsley Hospital and went through 2.5 years of treatment.People are always interested to know what helped me recover.Actually，it was simple：comedy. I’m a professional talk show actor.Comedy，for me，began as a hobby and has unbelievably progressed into a job.One of the things that initially held my attention about talk show is how it plays with pain.Humour became a way of understanding things，then a way of explaining them.Now it’s become a way of helping other people. The combination of being told to speak out about mental health and writing comedies to play jokes on myself，actually turned into the best type of treatment I could ever have had.Nothing has ever really helped normalise a thought or feeling quite like a joke that makes people openly say，“Me too！” That’s why I’ve come up with a six-week comedy course aimed at people with mental health difficulties.It builds lasting friendships，fights against loneliness and normalises conversations around mental health; when audiences are laughing，they have to be listening，and when they’re listening，they can learn.This unique opportunity enables comedy to reach people in a completely different way to all the sob stories，shocking statistics and dry documentaries(纪录片) about mental illness，inspiring with positivity rather than turning to negativity. Talk show was a must to my recovery.So，I want to pay that forward and show other people that your mental health doesn’t have to be “broken” before you can “fix it”． 1．Why is “anorexia” experience mentioned in the passage? A．To provide exact examples about mental health. B．To introduce a kind of treatment for mental health. C．To stress the importance of caring about mental health. D．To make a comparison between these two times of feelings. 答案　B 解析　推理判断题。根据第二段中“Aged 17 I developed anorexia(神经厌食症)．”和“People are always interested to know what helped me recover.Actually，it was simple：comedy.”可知，作者提及厌食症经历是为了表明是喜剧治愈了他的厌食症，即是为了引出一种心理疾病的治疗方式，故选B。 2．Why does comedy attract the author most at the very beginning? A．It helps others. B．It spreads humour. C．It deals with pain. D．It serves as a hobby. 答案　C 解析　细节理解题。根据第三段中“One of the things that initially held my attention about talk show is how it plays with pain.”可知，喜剧最初吸引作者是因为它巧妙地利用痛苦，从而应对痛苦。故选C。 3．What can we learn from the story? A．The author is an active and ambitious person. B．Comedy plays an important part in people’s life. C．The author will pass on comedy to help others. D．A six-week course is open to help the disabled. 答案　C 解析　推理判断题。根据文章最后一句可知，作者想把喜剧继续传递下去以帮助他人，让人们知道心理健康可以在“崩溃”之前就进行“修复”，故选C。 4．Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A．My Life Is Full of Talk Show B．Mental Health Should Be Fixed Earlier C．Humorous Lifestyle—A Key to Curing Ourselves D．Talk Show—An Efficient Way to Fix Mental Health 答案　D 解析　标题归纳题。通读全文，结合第二段中“People are always interested to know what helped me recover.Actually，it was simple：comedy.”可知，文章主要讲述了作者借助脱口秀治愈了自己的厌食症，说明了脱口秀是一种治疗心理健康问题的有效方式。故选D。 B The majority of people are unable to commit to a healthy long-term lifestyle—although they are somehow willing to！There seems to be a paradox(矛盾，悖论) here. We become more aware of the importance of leading a healthy lifestyle on a regular basis.Yet，we just don’t manage to.We may engage in a variety of short-term projects：1-week detox retreats or 1-month severe diets.But the benefits these short-term activities produce are quickly lost as we are dragged back to our “bad” habits in the longer term.The inability to stick to a healthy lifestyle makes us feel frustrated and unhealthy.What is the way out then? The first step is to understand the problem more deeply：What are the main obstacles of pursuing a healthy lifestyle? Which are the fundamental aspects to a healthy lifestyle? How are they interconnected? If we understand the problem and its components more deeply，we are one step closer to coming up with a solution. Surveys show how in 85% of cases in the US and Europe，the main obstacles to pursuing a healthy lifestyle are to be found among lack of awareness，time，self-control and guidelines. “Humans tend to heavily discount the future，meaning things that we have now are more valuable to us than things we’ll have in a few years，” said A．Braun in 2019.For this reason，we cannot correctly weigh the costs and consequences of choosing unhealthy habits today，and we tend to give in to short-term pleasure，although this means reducing longer-term benefits. We deliberately choose to experience and enjoy short-term pleasure，mainly because of a stress condition we may have，or because of personality.The underlying reason for these behaviors is primarily stress，as neuroscience discoveries in fact suggest，“In general，stress results in habit behavior in humans，so dealing first and foremost with stress is probably advisable when you are looking to make lasting changes.Luckily，your brain can change throughout life.Decreasing stress could finally help your brain become less easily influenced by habit.” 语篇解读　这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了大多数人无法坚持一种健康且长期的生活方式的原因以及解决方案。 5．Why do people engage in various short-term projects? A．To delete a bad habit. B．To keep healthy in lifestyle. C．To go on a severe diet. D．To solve the paradox. 答案　B 解析　细节理解题。根据第二段前三句可知，人们参加各种短期项目是为了保持健康的生活方式。故选B。 6．What is the obstacle of pursuing a healthy lifestyle? A．Lacking enough self-discipline. B．Gaining no reward from working out. C．Having no motive when making schedules. D．Relying on too much guidance from others. 答案　A 解析　细节理解题。根据第四段内容可知，追求健康生活方式的障碍之一是缺乏自律。故选A。 7．What’s the author’s purpose of quoting A．Braun’s words in paragraph 5? A．To highlight the association between habits and lifestyle. B．To stress the long-term value of adopting healthy habits. C．To show a trend of pursuing long-term pleasure. D．To convey people’s commitment to a healthy lifestyle. 答案　B 解析　推理判断题。根据第五段内容可知，作者引用A.Braun的话，是想强调养成健康习惯的长期价值。故选B。 8．What can we learn about neuroscience discoveries? A．Changing brain activities helps decrease stress. B．Personality contributes to one’s short-term pleasure. C．People’s habit behavior tends to dominate their emotions. D．Reducing stress is the key to sticking to a healthy lifestyle. 答案　D 解析　推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“The underlying reason for these behaviors is primarily stress...looking to make lasting changes.”可知，我们能从神经科学的发现中了解到减少压力是坚持健康生活方式的关键。故选D。 C South Korea has the highest rate of Internet addiction(上瘾) in the world and it is increasingly the country’s children who are spending every waking moment immersing themselves in fantasy role plays or gaming.In the remote mountains of South Korea，teenage Internet addicts are turning up for a 12-day boot camp. Kyle Won’s addiction is out of control.He spends 10 hours a day on the Internet.Now Kyle’s smartphone is taken away.The teachers here do what they can to get them socializing again; for many，the only friends they have had are online.“I have relationships on the Internet and a real distance has grown with my real-life friends and I know it’s not good，” Kyle said.The teachers show them other possibilities and bring back dreams and hopes that have been buried by their addictions.“We teach them methods of managing their desire to use the Internet so that they can continue to use it when they go back home，” Shim Yong-chool，a teacher here，said.After just two days Kyle said it was helpful.He’s set a good example to others though he hasn’t reached the goal completely. South Korean psychiatrists(精神病专家) are urging more action as they are finding evidence that too much screen time is a barrier to the developing minds.Professor Kang Seak Young from Dankook University said the addiction was damaging critical thinking.“It affects the frontal lobes(额叶) which are important to critical analysis，” Professor Kang said.“Reading a book and guessing what happens in the story next show activity in frontal lobes but playing popular computer games for a long time shows no activity.” South Korea is one of the most wired nations on Earth，but it does have a cost.One in every ten kids is an addict，so the country is now learning how to manage its high-tech future to avoid more serious consequences. 语篇解读　这是一篇说明文。韩国是世界上网瘾率最高的国家，韩国精神病专家敦促采取更多行动，以避免更严重的后果。 9．What do the teachers in the camp teach teenagers to do? A．Self-manage their smartphones. B．Make online friends more wisely. C．Attain something beyond the Internet. D．Keep away from electronic products. 答案　C 解析　细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The teachers show them other possibilities and bring back dreams and hopes that have been buried by their addictions.”可知，训练营的老师教青少年获得一些互联网之外的东西。故选C。 10．Why does the author mention Kyle’s story? A．He’s the representative of the addicts. B．He faced the most serious addiction. C．He has succeeded in kicking the addiction. D．He participated in the camp actively. 答案　A 解析　推理判断题。根据第二段内容尤其最后一句“He’s set a good example to others though he hasn’t reached the goal completely.”可知，作者之所以提到Kyle的故事是因为他是网瘾少年的代表。故选A。 11．What does paragraph 3 intend to tell us? A．The importance of offline reading. B．The harm of Internet addiction to brains. C．The effects of frontal lobes on thinking. D．The popularity of kids’ Internet games. 答案　B 解析　段落大意题。根据第三段中的“...as they are finding evidence that too much screen time...the addiction was damaging critical thinking.”可知，第三段想告诉我们网瘾对大脑的危害。故选B。 12．Which saying can explain the underlined sentence in the last paragraph? A．No pain，no gain. B．Prevention is better than cure. C．There are two sides to every coin. D．It’s good to learn at another man’s cost. 答案　C 解析　句意理解题。根据画线句“South Korea is one of the most wired nations on Earth，but it does have a cost.”可知，韩国的高度网络化有利有弊。故选C。 Ⅱ.七选五 Many people treat “life” as something that happens to them.They think they are the victims.When things go wrong，they think it’s someone else’s fault.However，there are those who are clear on their goals. 1 So how can you live a life by design instead of by default(默认)? Set goals and actually achieve them. 2 “New Year’s Resolutions” are the worst (or best) example of this.It’s easy to set goals，but very few people follow through with them to the end.People who live by design practice the habit of setting goals and actually achieving them.This constant practice is what allows them to set bigger and bigger goals and see them through to completion. Surround yourself with people you want to be like. Choose your friends carefully.As they say，“ 3 ” Make sure that the individuals who occupy your life and time share your values.Ideally，these people should even be a little bit ahead of you，forcing you to stretch and continue to grow in the direction you’d like to go. Don’t be afraid to go your own way. When you go your own way，everyone will tell you that you’re wrong at first. 4 They will see the life you’ve built for yourself.And they will ask you how you did it. 　5　 In order to get to where you know you can go，you have to say “no” a hundred times more than you say the word “yes”．You must be faithful to yourself and your goal.And the only way to do so is to have a strong sense of self-awareness and discipline. A．Practice discipline. B．Everybody sets goals. C．Don’t go out with others. D．Some people always stick to goals. E．You are a reflection of those who you spend the most time with. F．But when they find actually they are wrong，they will all come back around. G．When something goes wrong，they are the first to admit where they went wrong. 1．答案　G 解析　根据上文“However，there are those who are clear on their goals.”可知，本句内容应进一步解释目标清晰的人的做法，故G项符合语境，且与上文的“When things go wrong，they think it’s someone else’s fault.”构成对比。故选G。 2．答案　B 解析　根据后文“It’s easy to set goals，but very few people follow through with them to the end.”可知，此处应讲述的是目标的设定很常见。故B选项“每个人都设定目标”符合语境，故选B。 3．答案　E 解析　根据小标题和后文“Make sure that the individuals who occupy your life and time share your values.”可知，本段讲述认真选择身边的朋友，空处应表达认真择友的原因，故E选项“你是那些和你相处时间最长的人的反映”符合语境，故选E。 4．答案　F 解析　根据前文“everyone will tell you that you’re wrong at first”以及后文“And they will ask you how you did it.”可知，空格处与前文存在转折关系，故F选项“但是当他们发现是自己错了的时候，他们都会改变看法的”符合语境，故选F。 5．答案　A 解析　空格处是本段的主题句，应为祈使句且概括本段主旨。根据本段内容特别是最后一句可知，本段主要强调了要坚持奉行自己的原则。故选A。 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
