Ⅱ.阅读理解(每小题2.5分,共20分)
A
The alarm rang in my ear.After silencing it,I remained in bed.My motivation to push ahead with my PhD was disappearing,which made it hard to face each new day.Continuing would risk a total breakdown.With anxiety,I decided to cease my PhD temporarily and take a 9-month position at a health care charity.Back when I looked for PhD positions,I was unclear what I wanted to study.For me,the degree mostly served as a means to an end,securing more interesting and higher-paid positions in the private sector than my master’s degree would unlock.So I wasn’t picky and reasoned a variety of projects would provide the training and degree I wanted.
In hindsight(事后想来),I should have been more selective.I ended up working on a project I was technically capable of completing but over time felt full of disappointment.The purely academic research was intellectually interesting,yet I struggled to see how it would make an impact on the wider real world.
Some unexpected things amplified my trouble.I started my program in 2020,when meetings were virtual and in-person contact was actively discouraged,so I had few opportunities to form personal connections with co-workers.Research became my only focus,and when my interest in that faded,my project felt depressing.
After only 1 month at the charity,it became clear that I’d made the right decision.My mental health improved and I found it easier to come into work.Things I did could matter and energize me after all—if I chose wisely.That was exactly what I needed and desired.After that realization,I decided I wanted to return to my PhD program and make changes.I told my teacher I wasn’t interested in the current research.To my relief,he was supportive,and we redesigned the project to better fit me.I will return to my program next month,optimistic that this time will be different.But if it doesn’t go as I hope,my charity experience has given me direction and confidence that I’ll live a satisfying life,with or without a PhD.
语篇解读 本文是一篇记叙文。作者攻读博士学位时,由于他一开始没有认真选择自己所做的项目,时间长了,作者失去了研究动力。后来作者在慈善机构的工作帮助他找到了目标和信心。
1.What did the author view the PhD degree as at first?
A.A struggle for new days.
B.A way of getting a better job.
C.A breakthrough in his study.
D.A chance to build connections.
答案 B
解析 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“For me,the degree mostly served as a means to an end,securing more interesting and higher-paid positions...”可知,对作者来说,攻读博士学位是为了达到一个目的——找到更有趣、更高薪的职位。故选B。
2.Why did the author become disappointed at his project?
A.It was of slight practical use.
B.It had a high degree of difficulty.
C.It failed to meet his social need.
D.It showed an unpromising future.
答案 A
解析 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“but over time felt full of disappointment...yet I struggled to see how it would make an impact on the wider real world”可知,作者进行的纯学术研究在智力上很有趣,但他很难看到它会对更广泛的现实世界产生影响。故选A。
3.What does the underlined word“amplified” in paragraph 3 mean?
A.Reflected. B.Caused.
C.Solved. D.Increased.
答案 D
解析 词义猜测题。画线词下文提到作者于2020年开始他的项目,当时会议是线上的,作者很少有机会与同事建立个人联系。研究成为他唯一的关注点,当他对此的兴趣消退时,他的项目令人感到沮丧。这是作者在项目上遇到的困难。再结合上一段提到的作者对项目感到失望可知,画线词所在句应表示意料之外的事增加了他的苦恼。画线词所在句总结了第三段的内容,下文是对“Some unexpected things”的解释说明。故选D。
4.How did the charity work affect the author?
A.It inspired him to face challenges.
B.It made him regain self-confidence.
C.It helped him find a purpose in life.
D.It fueled his enthusiasm for his program.
答案 C

Alcohol has long been an important part of workplace culture.In almost all aspects of life,regular alcohol consumption has even been encouraged:from college and university all through to the workplace either to strengthen relationships or to uplift spirits.Hosting meetings at bars and restaurants with drinks flowing is even part of some companies’ business strategy,through which potential business partners get drunk together to become friends,so they can trust each other not to harm the other person’s professional interests.
Although some employees welcome alcohol into their work lives,the emphasis on drinking culture in the workplace doesn’t suit all.Research from 2019,conducted by researchers at the University of Stavanger in Norway,found that when employers or supervisors initiate drinking,employees feel it their obligation to participate.And among people in the UK,half of those surveyed by researchers at the University of Stirling in Scotland admitted to being pressured into drinking alcohol by colleagues and family.It also showed that generally,men felt forced into drinking more often than women,with men 20% more likely to be encouraged into drinking by their colleagues and 37% more by their bosses.
Yet,as central as drinking is to workplace socialisation and strategy,there are signs that some companies are re-thinking the role of alcohol in professional settings.After all,many workers don’t drink for personal reasons,and interactions involving alcohol at work can cause anxiety.The increasingly large population of Gen Zers(Z世代,网生代) are pushing for deeper and calmer conversations without alcohol.
According to a survey of 2,400 workers and 250 employees in the UK from Totaljobs,more than one in three workers see drinking with colleagues as outdated.Tactics(策略,方法) like non-alcoholic options and bonding activities that aren’t dependent on alcohol not only create a more inclusive environment for non-drinkers where they feel equally valued,and are welcome,but a space where staff who do drink feel comfortable—then everyone wins.
