Ethan was crazy about playing the guitar. He always lost himself in the melodies he created.
One day, Ethan got to know the village he lived in was hosting a talent show, and he 13 to participate. However, doubts started to creep (缓慢行进) into his mind. He compared himself to other talented musicians and began to 14 his abilities. The fear of failure consumed (消耗) him.
Ethan’s grandfather noticed that. He sat down with Ethan and shared a story from his own youth.
“When I was your age, I had a dream of becoming a painter. But I was filled with self-doubt, just like you are now. Later, I asked for help from a wise old artist.”
“The old artist listened to my worries and made me 15 myself. He asked me to paint a picture on a large canvas (油布) in front of a crowd. I hesitated (犹豫) because I didn’t know how to deal with it.”

“Encouraged by these words, I accepted the challenge. I painted with passion (激情), letting my 16 guide my brush. The crowd watched in shock as a beautiful masterpiece appeared on the canvas.”
Finishing the story, Ethan’s grandfather said, “That day, I realized that success is not defined (定义) by how 17 we are or how we compare to others. It’s about expressing ourselves with passion and authenticity.”

When the day of the talent show arrived, Ethan stepped on the stage, and began to play his guitar. Ethan’s fingers danced on the strings, creating melodies that touched the hearts of the audience. At that moment, he realized that his self-doubts had held him back, but now he was 19 .

When I was in my first year of high school, I had a terrible time when every area of my life was a disaster. I felt so hopeless and alone that I thought everything was impossible.
On one such day, I was walking from class across the school to catch the school bus home, with my head down, fighting tears of total hopelessness, when a young man came down the sidewalk toward me. Though I had never seen him before, I did not want him to see that I was in such low spirits, so I turned my head away and hoped to hurry past. I thought he’d walk on by, but he moved until he was directly in front of me, waited until I looked up, and then smiled.
Looking into my eyes, this stranger spoke in a quiet voice: “Whatever is wrong will pass. You’re going to be OK, just hang on.” He then smiled again and walked away.
I can’t explain the effect of that man’s unexpected kindness and caring! He gave me the one thing that I’d lost completely—hope. I looked for him in our school to thank him, but never saw him again.
That was thirty years ago. And I’ve never forgotten that moment. Over the years, whenever I see someone who is in trouble, I will always think of that young man and try to give a flash of hope in the dark wherever I can. I carry things for people when they are too heavy for them, sit with naughty babies in the waiting room while their mothers are busy, or talk to tired couples at the checkout line or it could be anything. If you keep your head up, your heart will show you the place that needs hope.
24.Where did the writer meet the young man?
A.In the school. B.In the library.
C.In the classroom. D.On the school bus.
25.What made the writer feel hopeful again?
A.The accident on the school bus.
B.The young man’s smile and words.
C.Talking to tired couples at the checkout line.
D.Sitting with naughty babies in the waiting room.
26.What can we know from the passage?
A.The writer was thankful to meet the young man.
B.The writer made good friends with the young man.
C.The writer felt hopeless because of the first year of new school.
D.The young man always tried his best to help the people in trouble.
C
Why do people fall for bad information? Scientists are trying to find that out. They are also trying to find out what we can do about it.
People on social media sometimes share questionable claims (言论). Maybe they think the claim is surprising or interesting. But how the claim is presented can influence how many people believe it.
People are likely to think that video is the most believable, noted S. Shyam Sundar. He works at Pennsylvania State University. Sundar and his team showed fake (假的) news stories to 180 people. One fake story claimed plastic was used to make rice. One version (版本) of the rice story was sent as text only. One version was a sound recording. The third had a video. It showed a man feeding plastic sheets into a machine. The tested people graded the video story as the most believable.
“Seeing is believing. People are more likely to accept misinformation when they see something in a video,” Sundar said. That’s especially true with the rise of deepfake technologies, which create fake but visually (视觉上) believable videos.
Another big problem with fake news is how easily it gets into our brains. We often find claims believable that go along with the values we hold. Some people are unlikely to question things that fit with what they already believe. Why? Because our values can influence how we process information.
So how can we slow the spread of fake news? It might just require getting people to stop and think. Two scientists, Gordon Pennycook and David Rand, worked together on a study. They showed both real news headlines and fake ones to 3,500 people. They tested these people’s analytical reasoning (分析推理). People who scored higher on the analytical tests were less likely to mistake fake news headlines as being correct. In other words, lazy thinking helps drive someone’s acceptance of fake news.
When we recognize something untrue, we should debunk (揭穿) it. Researchers have some tips:
·Check the information from trustworthy sources (来源). Look at different sources to see if they agree.
·Once you correct misinformation with a true fact, explain why the misinformation is wrong.
·Speak up as soon as possible when you see misinformation being shared on social media.
Not paying attention can help fake news spread. Fortunately, there’s a simple solution—stop shutting off our brains so much. By thinking carefully and sharing real information, we can help everyone stay informed with facts.
27.The purpose of Sundar and his team’s study is to find out ________.
A.what ways can be used to spread news
B.how fake news spreads through different media
C.what kind of people are likely to believe fake news
D.how the presentation of news influences its believability
28.What can we learn from the passage?
A.People are likely to believe information that matches their values.
B.Debunking bad information depends heavily on technology.
C.The brain has a weak ability to recognize misinformation.
D.Lazy thinkers often slow down the spread of fake news.
29.What is the passage mainly about?
A.The causes of fake news and its bad influences.
B.The spread of fake news and people’s complaints about it.
C.The reasons for believing fake news and ways to deal with it.
D.The problems caused by fake news and the necessity to recognize it.
D
At a climate meeting, some scientists suggested giving up tree planting as a solution to climate change. To many people, this may seem shocking because they think ecosystem restoration (生态系统恢复) means planting as many trees as possible.
However, seeing ecosystem restoration as tree planting can be very dangerous because tree planting is often used as an excuse to avoid cutting carbon emissions (碳排放). In fact, if the oil and gas industry continues to increase in size, even 10 planets full of trees could not deal with the destruction that would result. At the same time, these monoculture carbon farms, where only one type of plant is grown to store carbon, are not truly the restoration of nature. They often cover landscapes with trees at the cost of the biodiversity (生物多样性) in that area or the living of the local people.
As these problems have been stressed in plenty of media articles, some environmental protection organizations, like Greenpeace, have even called for an end to all the nature-based solutions to climate change. However, nature is not the problem. Trees are not the problem. The problem is our misuse of them as a quick fix to offset carbon emissions.
To get things straight, hundreds of scientists recently joined forces to publish a related study in the journal Nature. The study shows that the recovery of natural forests has the potential (潜能) to help with 1/3 of our carbon drawdown needs in the fight against climate change. But it also shows that these climate benefits will not be achieved if we don’t cut carbon emissions. If emissions continue, then natural fires and global warming will endanger the forests that we have left.
The study also shows that the full potential of forests will not be achieved by monoculture tree plantations, which store less than half as much carbon as diverse ecosystems do. Most of the forest potential can be achieved by protecting and managing the ecosystems that we have left, allowing them to recover. The rest can be achieved by encouraging local communities to take active steps to strengthen biodiversity in areas where the ecosystem has been destroyed.
While the diverse ecosystem positively influences the climate, its benefits for local people are far more important. The real value of ecosystem restoration lies in the rich biodiversity supporting local living. By protecting nature, people get what they need for living in return. As a Zambian farmer put it, “no trees, no bees; no honey, no money”. When natural biodiversity becomes a practical choice for local people, that is when we get the long-term climate benefits of nature as a wonderful byproduct.
30.The second paragraph is mainly about ________.
A.the problems of misunderstanding ecosystem restoration
B.the methods of cutting down greenhouse gas emissions
C.the importance of the biodiversity for the local people
D.the purpose of developing monoculture carbon farms
31.The word “offset” in Paragraph 3 probably means “________.”
A.put off B.add to C.speed up D.balance out
32.What can we learn from the study published in the journal Nature?
A.Natural forest recovery can meet most carbon drawdown needs.
B.Local communities are expected to play a role in ecosystem restoration.
C.Protecting the remaining ecosystems takes more time than planting trees.
D.Monoculture carbon farms work better than natural forests in storing carbon.
33.The writer probably agrees that ________.
A.people get what they need for living in return by protecting nature
B.it makes no sense to stop monoculture tree planting for climate benefits
C.people should put an end to nature-based solutions for restoring ecosystem
D.developing monoculture carbon farms can improve the living of the local people

brainstorming
Brainstorming is a way to come up with new and smart ideas to solve difficult problems. It includes bringing together people with different views and backgrounds to share their ideas freely and build on ideas. Here are some key points to keep in mind when carrying on a brainstorming activity.
First, the group should have a clear goal for the brainstorming activity. This will help guide the discussion and make sure that all ideas created are closely connected to the topic at hand. All members should be encouraged to share their thoughts and ideas freely.
When looking at the quality of ideas from a brainstorming activity, group members had better consider how many there are and what they are about. While a large number of ideas can be beneficial, it is more important to focus on the quality of the ideas and how well they fit with the group’s shared goal.
Group members need to ask for more information about an idea. This can help the group to decide if an idea fits the goal. If an idea won’t work or doesn’t fully meet the needs, it’s important to recognize this and move on to other ideas that might work better.
Besides, it’s necessary to focus on coming up with new ideas, not going over old ones. Members should be encouraged to think creatively and outside the box, and to avoid getting stuck in the details (细节) .
The number of ideas is important too. While having many ideas doesn’t mean success by itself, it makes sure we think about all possible ideas. Everyone should try to think of as many ideas as they can, without worrying if they will work right away.
In the end, a good brainstorming activity depends on the group’s ability to work together towards a shared goal. By supporting each other’s ideas and looking at their value and fit, we can find new ways to solve hard problems for everyone’s benefit. Brainstorming is a powerful tool that can help us face challenges, working together for a better and more creative future.
34.What is brainstorming?
35.Why do group members need to ask for more information about an idea?
36.How can people find new ways to solve hard problems for everyone’s benefit in a brainstorming activity?
37.Do you think brainstorming is a powerful tool to solve problems? Why or why not? (Please give two reasons. )

When I was in my first year of high school, I had a terrible time when every area of my life was a disaster. I felt so hopeless and alone that I thought everything was impossible.
On one such day, I was walking from class across the school to catch the school bus home, with my head down, fighting tears of total hopelessness, when a young man came down the sidewalk toward me. Though I had never seen him before, I did not want him to see that I was in such low spirits, so I turned my head away and hoped to hurry past. I thought he’d walk on by, but he moved until he was directly in front of me, waited until I looked up, and then smiled.
Looking into my eyes, this stranger spoke in a quiet voice: “Whatever is wrong will pass. You’re going to be OK, just hang on.” He then smiled again and walked away.
I can’t explain the effect of that man’s unexpected kindness and caring! He gave me the one thing that I’d lost completely—hope. I looked for him in our school to thank him, but never saw him again.
That was thirty years ago. And I’ve never forgotten that moment. Over the years, whenever I see someone who is in trouble, I will always think of that young man and try to give a flash of hope in the dark wherever I can. I carry things for people when they are too heavy for them, sit with naughty babies in the waiting room while their mothers are busy, or talk to tired couples at the checkout line or it could be anything. If you keep your head up, your heart will show you the place that needs hope.
24.Where did the writer meet the young man?
A.In the school. B.In the library.
C.In the classroom. D.On the school bus.
25.What made the writer feel hopeful again?
A.The accident on the school bus.
B.The young man’s smile and words.
C.Talking to tired couples at the checkout line.
D.Sitting with naughty babies in the waiting room.
26.What can we know from the passage?
A.The writer was thankful to meet the young man.
B.The writer made good friends with the young man.
C.The writer felt hopeless because of the first year of new school.
D.The young man always tried his best to help the people in trouble.

Why do people fall for bad information? Scientists are trying to find that out. They are also trying to find out what we can do about it.
People on social media sometimes share questionable claims (言论). Maybe they think the claim is surprising or interesting. But how the claim is presented can influence how many people believe it.
People are likely to think that video is the most believable, noted S. Shyam Sundar. He works at Pennsylvania State University. Sundar and his team showed fake (假的) news stories to 180 people. One fake story claimed plastic was used to make rice. One version (版本) of the rice story was sent as text only. One version was a sound recording. The third had a video. It showed a man feeding plastic sheets into a machine. The tested people graded the video story as the most believable.
“Seeing is believing. People are more likely to accept misinformation when they see something in a video,” Sundar said. That’s especially true with the rise of deepfake technologies, which create fake but visually (视觉上) believable videos.
Another big problem with fake news is how easily it gets into our brains. We often find claims believable that go along with the values we hold. Some people are unlikely to question things that fit with what they already believe. Why? Because our values can influence how we process information.
So how can we slow the spread of fake news? It might just require getting people to stop and think. Two scientists, Gordon Pennycook and David Rand, worked together on a study. They showed both real news headlines and fake ones to 3,500 people. They tested these people’s analytical reasoning (分析推理). People who scored higher on the analytical tests were less likely to mistake fake news headlines as being correct. In other words, lazy thinking helps drive someone’s acceptance of fake news.
When we recognize something untrue, we should debunk (揭穿) it. Researchers have some tips:
·Check the information from trustworthy sources (来源). Look at different sources to see if they agree.
·Once you correct misinformation with a true fact, explain why the misinformation is wrong.
·Speak up as soon as possible when you see misinformation being shared on social media.
Not paying attention can help fake news spread. Fortunately, there’s a simple solution—stop shutting off our brains so much. By thinking carefully and sharing real information, we can help everyone stay informed with facts.
27.The purpose of Sundar and his team’s study is to find out ________.
A.what ways can be used to spread news
B.how fake news spreads through different media
C.what kind of people are likely to believe fake news
D.how the presentation of news influences its believability
28.What can we learn from the passage?
A.People are likely to believe information that matches their values.
B.Debunking bad information depends heavily on technology.
C.The brain has a weak ability to recognize misinformation.
D.Lazy thinkers often slow down the spread of fake news.
29.What is the passage mainly about?
A.The causes of fake news and its bad influences.
B.The spread of fake news and people’s complaints about it.
C.The reasons for believing fake news and ways to deal with it.
D.The problems caused by fake news and the necessity to recognize it.
【答案】27.D 28.A 29.C
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了人们很容易被虚假信息所骗的一些原因和怎样辨别查找出信息真假。
27.推理判断题。根据“But how the claim is presented can influence how many people believe it.”以及第三段“The third had a video. It showed a man feeding plastic sheets into a machine. The tested people graded the video story as the most believable.”可知, Sundar和他的团队实验证明,眼见为实,当人们在视频中看到某些东西时,他们更容易接受错误信息;据此可推断,该团体研究的目的是找出新闻的呈现方式如何影响其可信度。故选D。
28.细节理解题。根据“We often find claims believable that go along with the values we hold. Some people are unlikely to question things that fit with what they already believe. Why? Because our values can influence how we process information.”可知,我们经常发现与我们持有的价值观相一致的主张是可信的,因为我们的价值观会影响我们处理信息的方式。故选A。
29.主旨大意题。综合全文可知,本文主要介绍了人们很容易被虚假信息所骗的一些原因以及如何辨别信息真假的方法和建议。故选C。
D
At a climate meeting, some scientists suggested giving up tree planting as a solution to climate change. To many people, this may seem shocking because they think ecosystem restoration (生态系统恢复) means planting as many trees as possible.
However, seeing ecosystem restoration as tree planting can be very dangerous because tree planting is often used as an excuse to avoid cutting carbon emissions (碳排放). In fact, if the oil and gas industry continues to increase in size, even 10 planets full of trees could not deal with the destruction that would result. At the same time, these monoculture carbon farms, where only one type of plant is grown to store carbon, are not truly the restoration of nature. They often cover landscapes with trees at the cost of the biodiversity (生物多样性) in that area or the living of the local people.
As these problems have been stressed in plenty of media articles, some environmental protection organizations, like Greenpeace, have even called for an end to all the nature-based solutions to climate change. However, nature is not the problem. Trees are not the problem. The problem is our misuse of them as a quick fix to offset carbon emissions.
To get things straight, hundreds of scientists recently joined forces to publish a related study in the journal Nature. The study shows that the recovery of natural forests has the potential (潜能) to help with 1/3 of our carbon drawdown needs in the fight against climate change. But it also shows that these climate benefits will not be achieved if we don’t cut carbon emissions. If emissions continue, then natural fires and global warming will endanger the forests that we have left.
The study also shows that the full potential of forests will not be achieved by monoculture tree plantations, which store less than half as much carbon as diverse ecosystems do. Most of the forest potential can be achieved by protecting and managing the ecosystems that we have left, allowing them to recover. The rest can be achieved by encouraging local communities to take active steps to strengthen biodiversity in areas where the ecosystem has been destroyed.
While the diverse ecosystem positively influences the climate, its benefits for local people are far more important. The real value of ecosystem restoration lies in the rich biodiversity supporting local living. By protecting nature, people get what they need for living in return. As a Zambian farmer put it, “no trees, no bees; no honey, no money”. When natural biodiversity becomes a practical choice for local people, that is when we get the long-term climate benefits of nature as a wonderful byproduct.
30.The second paragraph is mainly about ________.
A.the problems of misunderstanding ecosystem restoration
B.the methods of cutting down greenhouse gas emissions
C.the importance of the biodiversity for the local people
D.the purpose of developing monoculture carbon farms
31.The word “offset” in Paragraph 3 probably means “________.”
A.put off B.add to C.speed up D.balance out
32.What can we learn from the study published in the journal Nature?
A.Natural forest recovery can meet most carbon drawdown needs.
B.Local communities are expected to play a role in ecosystem restoration.
C.Protecting the remaining ecosystems takes more time than planting trees.
D.Monoculture carbon farms work better than natural forests in storing carbon.
33.The writer probably agrees that ________.
A.people get what they need for living in return by protecting nature
B.it makes no sense to stop monoculture tree planting for climate benefits
C.people should put an end to nature-based solutions for restoring ecosystem
D.developing monoculture carbon farms can improve the living of the local people
【答案】30.A 31.D 32.B 33.A
【导语】本文主要讲述了一些科学家建议放弃植树造林,以解决气候变化问题,他们认为重要的是减少碳排放。
30.段落大意题。根据“However, seeing ecosystem restoration as tree planting can be very dangerous because tree planting is often used as an excuse to avoid cutting carbon emissions (碳排放).”及结合本段内容可知,本段主要讲述了将生态系统恢复视为植树这一观点是错误的。故选A。
31.词义猜测题。根据“However, nature is not the problem. Trees are not the problem. The problem is our misuse of them as a quick fix to offset carbon emissions.”可知,问题是我们把植树当做一种快速抵消碳排放的方法,可猜测出offset可能是“抵消,平衡”的意思,和balance out意思接近。故选D。
32.推理判断题。根据“The rest can be achieved by encouraging local communities to take active steps to strengthen biodiversity in areas where the ecosystem has been destroyed.”可知,这项研究也认为当地社区应该采取措施来帮助生态系统恢复。故选B。
33.推理判断题。根据“By protecting nature, people get what they need for living in return.”可知,作者可能赞成人们通过保护自然,作为回报,可以得到他们所需要的这一观点。故选A。

brainstorming
Brainstorming is a way to come up with new and smart ideas to solve difficult problems. It includes bringing together people with different views and backgrounds to share their ideas freely and build on ideas. Here are some key points to keep in mind when carrying on a brainstorming activity.
First, the group should have a clear goal for the brainstorming activity. This will help guide the discussion and make sure that all ideas created are closely connected to the topic at hand. All members should be encouraged to share their thoughts and ideas freely.
When looking at the quality of ideas from a brainstorming activity, group members had better consider how many there are and what they are about. While a large number of ideas can be beneficial, it is more important to focus on the quality of the ideas and how well they fit with the group’s shared goal.
Group members need to ask for more information about an idea. This can help the group to decide if an idea fits the goal. If an idea won’t work or doesn’t fully meet the needs, it’s important to recognize this and move on to other ideas that might work better.
Besides, it’s necessary to focus on coming up with new ideas, not going over old ones. Members should be encouraged to think creatively and outside the box, and to avoid getting stuck in the details (细节) .
The number of ideas is important too. While having many ideas doesn’t mean success by itself, it makes sure we think about all possible ideas. Everyone should try to think of as many ideas as they can, without worrying if they will work right away.
In the end, a good brainstorming activity depends on the group’s ability to work together towards a shared goal. By supporting each other’s ideas and looking at their value and fit, we can find new ways to solve hard problems for everyone’s benefit. Brainstorming is a powerful tool that can help us face challenges, working together for a better and more creative future.
34.What is brainstorming?
35.Why do group members need to ask for more information about an idea?
36.How can people find new ways to solve hard problems for everyone’s benefit in a brainstorming activity?
37.Do you think brainstorming is a powerful tool to solve problems? Why or why not? (Please give two reasons. )
【答案】34.It is a way to come up with new and smart ideas to solve difficult problems. 35.Because this can help the group to decide if an idea fits the goal. 36.By supporting each other’s ideas and looking at their value and fit. 37.Yes, I do. Because we can come up with new and smart ideas in a brainstorming activity and it can help us face challenges, working together for a better and more creative future./No, I don’t. Because the ideas created may not be connected to the topic at hand, and sometimes we may get stuck in the details and fail to find the way to solve problems. (开放性试题,答案合理即可。)
【导语】本文主要介绍了进行头脑风暴活动时,应该注意一些关键要点。
34.根据第一段“Brainstorming is a way to come up with new and smart ideas to solve difficult problems.”可知,头脑风暴是一种想出新的、聪明的想法来解决难题的方法。故填It is a way to come up with new and smart ideas to solve difficult problems.

36.根据第七段“By supporting each other’s ideas and looking at their value and fit, we can find new ways to solve hard problems for everyone’s benefit.”可知,通过支持彼此的想法,审视他们的价值和契合度,我们可以找到新的方法来解决棘手的问题,造福所有人。故填By supporting each other’s ideas and looking at their value and fit.
37.开放性作答,言之有理即可。参考答案为Yes, I do. Because we can come up with new and smart ideas in a brainstorming activity and it can help us face challenges, working together for a better and more creative future./No, I don’t. Because the ideas created may not be connected to the topic at hand, and sometimes we may get stuck in the details and fail to find the way to solve problems.
