Chinook salmon and their habitats in Seattle’s Thornton Creek suffered severely due to urban expansion, causing flash floods and biodiversity loss. Despite restoration efforts, the once-abundant salmon all but disappeared. During a conference, biologist Katherine Lynch proposed rebuilding the creek’s missing “liver” damaged by urbanization.
Lynch has been studying the hyporheic zone, a layer of wet sediment (沉积物), small stones and tiny creatures beneath the streambed. It facilitates water mixing and oxygen delivery to salmon eggs, earning the nickname “liver of the river.” The disappearance of this zone threatens the health of waterways. Lynch recognized that, however, most restoration efforts in Seattle overlooked it or disconnected it from the surface water.
Teamed with engineer Mike Hrachovec, Lynch redesigned Thornton Creek. They strategically put logs into the water at precise angles to create tiny waterfalls and nearly still water pockets, generating hydraulic pressure to force water down into the hyporheic zone. These accurately placed logs and rocks, known as “hyporheic structures,” also create pockets of slow water that provide safe shelters for juvenile fish — all meant toemulate features of a natural stream. Subsequent data analysis confirmed the stream functioned as Lynch’s team — and nature — intended.
But was the stream also supporting life? Given that the stone and sand positioned were sterile (贫瘠的) territory, Lynch thought that a biological jumpstart might be necessary and that the return of life to restored creeks relied on organisms migrating from healthy upstream habitats. So her team tried another ground-breaking move: inoculating (接种) the engineered hyporheic zone with microbes (微生物), which quickly populated the areas. But even though the number of individuals was high, the biodiversity was relatively low. A 2021 study by stream ecologist Sarah Morley noted that while a few of the new species grew rapidly, most were similar to those in unrestored section. Scientists are exploring reasons for the limited survival of introduced species, and because this science is so new, they have not ruled out any potential explanations: differences in the donor stream, size of the restored area, or poor water quality. They might have inoculated the hyporheic too soon, before essential vegetation could establish.
The Thornton Creek restorations have successfully prevented neighbourhood flooding, even during heavy storms, and stabilized the stream’s flow. Most notably, Chinook salmon returned to lay eggs in the restored hyporheic zones, touching Lynch deeply. She recalls, “this success suggests that small urban creek restorations can revitalize functioning ecosystems.”
24.What does the underlined word “emulate” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A.Record. B.Copy. C.Monitor. D.Transform.
25.What can be inferred about the microbial inoculation in Thornton Creek?
A.It introduced essential vegetation.
B.It restored the original biodiversity.
C.It increased the total quantity of microbes.
D.It sourced microbes from downstream habitats.
26.What can we learn from Lynch’s restoration project?
A.It focused on increasing water oxygen levels.
B.It recreated the conditions of the donor stream.
C.It removed human-made structures from the creek.
D.It integrated physical redesign with bio-intervention.
27.Which would be the best title for this passage?
A.To Revive a River, Restore Its Liver.
B.Urbanization: A Silent Killer of a River.
C.Chinook Salmon Boost the Diversity of Ecosystems.
D.What Makes the Hyporheic Zone Vital for Restoration?.

Tara grew up in a remote mountain region of Idaho, where her family led an unconventional lifestyle, avoiding modern society. Formal education was frowned upon, and Tara spent her childhood working alongside her parents mixing herbs with her mother and helping her father in his scrapyard(废料场). Books were rare in their home, and Tara's learning was limited to what her parents chose to teach.
As Tara grew older, she became aware of the world beyond her family's isolated home. Her curiosity about education deepened. At the age of 16, she decided to change her life and pursue formal learning, a decision that created tension within her family. With no formal schooling, Tara taught herself basic subjects, often studying late into the night. When she finally gained admission to college, she faced enormous challenges: she struggled to keep up with classmates and often doubted her ability to succeed.
College life was not easy. With no formal schooling background, she had to teach herself everything from basic math to history, it was a journey filled with obstacles and moments of self-doubt, The idea of sitting in a college classroom seemed almost impossible. Yet, she persevered, driven by a desire to understand and grow.
Entering college, Tara faced not only academic challenges but deep-seated fears from her upbringing. Every classroom discussion seemed overwhelming, every historical fact she hadn’t learned made her feel out of place. But Tara found teachers who believed in her potential. They guided her, and she started to see herself as more than her past. Over time, Tara's endurance paid off. She earned a doctorate at Cambridge, transforming her life and redefining what was possible.
Looking back, Tara realized her journey was not just about gaining knowledge it was about facing challenges bravely and having the courage to redefine who she really was.

Memories are funny, aren’t they? You can be going along, minding your business, and then, all of a sudden, a memory pops into your head. Sometimes memories are triggered (触发) by a song that reminds you of the setting where you first heard it. Or it may be a smell that makes you think of a delicious meal with your friends or family. Perhaps hearing kids arguing makes you remember an unhappy situation with childhood friends. These spontaneous (自发的) memories can be “sweet,” or they might be “sour.” Did you ever wonder what’s going on in your brain that makes your memories produce positive or negative emotions?
Researchers at the Salk Institute for Biologica Studies in California have made a discovery that could help to uncover this secret. The explanation is a bit technical (for those of us who are not brain scientists), but basically it all focuses on a single molecule (分子) called neurotensin (神经降压素). Our surrounding environment is constantly presenting our brain with stimuli (刺激). The molecule neurotensin acts as a key indicator of whether an experience is labeled as positive or negative, depending on the nature of the stimuli. Our brain subsequently associates similar stimuli with the pleasant or painful memory that we experienced.
The study by the Salk Institute was published in the journal Nature. The focus of their experiments was the brain circuitry of laboratory mice. After a sound was played, the mice received either a pleasant swallow of sugary water or, an unpleasant electrical shock or puff of air. The researchers discovered that neurotensin was the signal that associated the sound with reward or with punishment When the gene (基因) that regulates neurotensin was removed from the mice’s brains, they had more difficulty connecting the sound with the sugary water. However, the negative responses were enhanced.
Understanding how neurons in the brain respond to neurotensin could have influences on one’s mental health. Addictions may be caused by overly high levels of neurotensin (connected with positive rewards). On the other hand, depression and anxiety can result when decreased levels of neurotensin allow negative responses to dominate. Thus, regulating neurotensin could help to maintain mental stability. One other thing: The research study showed that the brain may tend to be a pessimist, focusing on fearful memories that cause negative emotional responses.
Perhaps insights into neurotensin will help us have fewer sour memories and more sweet ones.
32.What is the function of neurotensin?
A.To provide our brain with stimuli.
B.To indicate the category of an experience.
C.To focus on the surrounding environment.
D.To associate the stimuli with our memory.
33.What can we learn from the passage?
A.Addictions and anxiety may be related to different levels of neurotensin.
B.The mice were given both sugary water and an electrical shock after hearing a sound.
C.As the gene which controls neurotensin disappeared, the negative responses decreased.
D.The brain prefers connecting with fearful memories which produce unexpected emotions.
34.What is the passage mainly about?
A.What happens in our brain to form our memory.
B.What the discovery of memory can do for mental health.
C.How brain connects our memory with different emotions.
D.How we regulate neurotensin to make us have good emotions.

根据短文内容,从短文后的七个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。
Much smaller in size than the diameter of an average human hair, nanoplastics are invisible to the naked eye. Linked to cardiovascular and respiratory diseases in people, nanoplastics continue to build up, largely unnoticed, in the world’s bodies of water. 35
Therefore, at is urgent to develop better ways to remove nanoplastics from water. However the challenge remains to develop a cost-effective solution to get rid of nanoplastics while leaving clean water behind. 36 Recently, researchers created a cheap liquid-based solution that removes more than 98% of these microscopic plastic particles (颗粒) from water.
The innovative method uses water-resistant solvents (溶剂) made from natural ingredients. It not only offers a practical solution to the pressing issue of nanoplastic pollution but also paves the way for further research and development in advanced water purification technologies. The strategy uses a small amount of designer solvent to absorb plastic particles from a large dume of water. 37 Once mixed with water and allowed to reseparate, the solvent floats back to the surface, carrying the nanoplastics within its molecular structure. Currently, the capacity of the solvent is not well understood. 38 Additionally, they will explore methods to recycle the solvent, enabling their reuse multiple times if necessary.
39 The solvents are made from safe, non-toxic components, and their ability to resist water prevents additional pollution of water sources, making them a highly sustainable solution. From a scientific perspective, creating effective removal methods fosters innovation in filtration technologies, provides insights into nanomaterial behavior, and supports the development of informed environmental policies.
A.That’s where a new research comes in.
B.The cost of producing the solvent is still too high.
C.Previous methods failed to purify and recycle the small particles.
D.Initially, the solvent sits on the water’s surface the way oil floats on water.
E.In future work, researchers aim to determine the maximum capacity of the solvent.
F.The new method offers multiple advantages that are both practical and scientifically significant.
G.They can damage water ecosystems and enter the food chain, threatening wildlife and humans.

阅读下面短文,根据题目要求用英文回答问题。
Good news for procrastinators (拖延者): There is a way to use procrastination to your advantage. Most procrastinators make the mistake of doing nothing at all. But when you use procrastination as motivation to get things done, you can avoid doing that one thing you really would rather not do and be quite productive. It’s what essayist John Perry calls “structured procrastination”.
Let’s say, for example, you have a number of tasks you are avoiding, in order of urgency:1) Finishing an essay; 2) Responding to emails; 3) Cleaning and doing laundry. A non-procrastinator would accomplish these tasks in order of urgency. A procrastinator would avoid doing them altogether. But a structured procrastinator would do them in reverse (反向) — using his desire to avoid writing the essay as motivation to do cleaning and respond to emails. Since he can reprogram by working on other things that are still valuable, he is actually getting a lot done.
College senior Jordan Gonen is what you might call a structured procrastinator. When he is overcome with fear of homework, he’ll preoccupy himself with what he calls “quick wins”—sending emails and writing articles for his blog. “It’s still procrastinating my homework, but instead of doing nothing in the meantime, I’m still getting a lot done,” Gonen says.
Once he gets through these tasks, Gonen can more easily get into the mindset of tackling his homework. “A lot of these smaller tasks aren’t particularly fun or productive, but if you can really knock them out really quickly over a certain period of time, then you can get a lot more done and it doesn’t feel necessarily worse — you’ re just working 100 percent on whatever you’ re working on,” Gonen says.
40.What is “structured procrastination”?
41.How would structured procrastinators handle a number of tasks they are avoiding?
42.Please decide which part is false in the following statement, then underline it and explain why.
Gonen gets through his smaller tasks first because they are fun and productive.
43.Would you use structured procrastination in your daily life? Why or why not? (In about 40 words)

Chinook salmon and their habitats in Seattle’s Thornton Creek suffered severely due to urban expansion, causing flash floods and biodiversity loss. Despite restoration efforts, the once-abundant salmon all but disappeared. During a conference, biologist Katherine Lynch proposed rebuilding the creek’s missing “liver” damaged by urbanization.
Lynch has been studying the hyporheic zone, a layer of wet sediment (沉积物), small stones and tiny creatures beneath the streambed. It facilitates water mixing and oxygen delivery to salmon eggs, earning the nickname “liver of the river.” The disappearance of this zone threatens the health of waterways. Lynch recognized that, however, most restoration efforts in Seattle overlooked it or disconnected it from the surface water.
Teamed with engineer Mike Hrachovec, Lynch redesigned Thornton Creek. They strategically put logs into the water at precise angles to create tiny waterfalls and nearly still water pockets, generating hydraulic pressure to force water down into the hyporheic zone. These accurately placed logs and rocks, known as “hyporheic structures,” also create pockets of slow water that provide safe shelters for juvenile fish — all meant toemulate features of a natural stream. Subsequent data analysis confirmed the stream functioned as Lynch’s team — and nature — intended.
But was the stream also supporting life? Given that the stone and sand positioned were sterile (贫瘠的) territory, Lynch thought that a biological jumpstart might be necessary and that the return of life to restored creeks relied on organisms migrating from healthy upstream habitats. So her team tried another ground-breaking move: inoculating (接种) the engineered hyporheic zone with microbes (微生物), which quickly populated the areas. But even though the number of individuals was high, the biodiversity was relatively low. A 2021 study by stream ecologist Sarah Morley noted that while a few of the new species grew rapidly, most were similar to those in unrestored section. Scientists are exploring reasons for the limited survival of introduced species, and because this science is so new, they have not ruled out any potential explanations: differences in the donor stream, size of the restored area, or poor water quality. They might have inoculated the hyporheic too soon, before essential vegetation could establish.
The Thornton Creek restorations have successfully prevented neighbourhood flooding, even during heavy storms, and stabilized the stream’s flow. Most notably, Chinook salmon returned to lay eggs in the restored hyporheic zones, touching Lynch deeply. She recalls, “this success suggests that small urban creek restorations can revitalize functioning ecosystems.”
24.What does the underlined word “emulate” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A.Record. B.Copy. C.Monitor. D.Transform.
25.What can be inferred about the microbial inoculation in Thornton Creek?
A.It introduced essential vegetation.
B.It restored the original biodiversity.
C.It increased the total quantity of microbes.
D.It sourced microbes from downstream habitats.
26.What can we learn from Lynch’s restoration project?
A.It focused on increasing water oxygen levels.
B.It recreated the conditions of the donor stream.
C.It removed human-made structures from the creek.
D.It integrated physical redesign with bio-intervention.
27.Which would be the best title for this passage?
A.To Revive a River, Restore Its Liver.
B.Urbanization: A Silent Killer of a River.
C.Chinook Salmon Boost the Diversity of Ecosystems.
D.What Makes the Hyporheic Zone Vital for Restoration?.
【答案】24.B 25.C 26.D 27.A
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了科学家通过重建溪流“肝脏”——潜流带,成功恢复生态系统功能并使鲑鱼回归的生态修复过程。
24.词句猜测题。根据第三段中“They strategically put logs into the water at precise angles to create tiny waterfalls and nearly still water pockets, generating hydraulic pressure to force water down into the hyporheic zone. These accurately placed logs and rocks, known as “hyporheic structures,” also create pockets of slow water that provide safe shelters for juvenile fish — all meant to emulate features of a natural stream. (他们从策略上以精确的角度把原木放入水中,以制造出小瀑布和近乎静止的水洼,产生液压将水挤压进潜流带。这些精准放置的原木和石头被称为“潜流结构”,它们还形成了水流缓慢的区域,为幼鱼提供了安全的庇护所——这一切都是为了emulate自然溪流的特征)”可知,这些结构和设计都是为了模仿天然溪流的特征,所以“emulate”意思是“模仿”,与“copy”意思相近。故选B。
25.推理判断题。根据第四段中“But even though the number of individuals was high, the biodiversity was relatively low. (但是,尽管个体数量很高,生物多样性却相对较低)”以及“So her team tried another ground-breaking move: inoculating (接种) the engineered hyporheic zone with microbes (微生物), which quickly populated the areas. (于是,她的团队尝试了另一项开创性的举措:向经过改造的潜流带接种微生物,这些微生物迅速在这些区域大量繁殖)”可知,对桑顿溪进行微生物接种后,微生物数量迅速增加,但生物多样性相对较低。所以可以推断出微生物接种增加了微生物的总量。故选C。
26.推理判断题。根据第三段中“Teamed with engineer Mike Hrachovec, Lynch redesigned Thornton Creek. They strategically put logs into the water at precise angles to create tiny waterfalls and nearly still water pockets, generating hydraulic pressure to force water down into the hyporheic zone. (林奇与工程师迈克・赫拉乔韦茨合作,重新设计了桑顿溪。他们颇有策略地将原木以精确的角度放入水中,打造出微型瀑布和近乎静止的水洼,产生水压,迫使水流进入潜流带)”以及第四段中“So her team tried another ground-breaking move: inoculating (接种) the engineered hyporheic zone with microbes (微生物), which quickly populated the areas. (于是,她的团队尝试了另一项开创性的举措:向经过改造的潜流带接种微生物,这些微生物迅速在这些区域大量繁殖)”可知,林奇的修复项目既包括对溪流的物理重新设计,如放置原木和岩石来制造“潜流结构”,又包括生物干预,如对潜流带进行微生物接种,将两者结合起来,由此推知,林奇的修复项目将物理重新设计与生物干预相结合。故选D。
27.主旨大意题。通读全文,特别是第一段中“During a conference, biologist Katherine Lynch proposed rebuilding the creek’s missing “liver” damaged by urbanization. (在一次会议上,生物学家凯瑟琳・林奇提议重建这条因城市化而受损、缺失的溪流“肝脏”)”可知,文章主要讲述了生物学家Katherine Lynch为了恢复西雅图桑顿溪的生态系统,提出重建被城市化破坏的溪流“肝脏”——潜流带的建议,并通过与工程师合作进行了一系列修复工作,最终取得了成功,使奇努克鲑鱼回到了修复后的潜流带产卵。A选项“To Revive a River, Restore Its Liver (要恢复一条河,先恢复它的“肝脏”)”能够很好地概括文章主旨,既体现了修复的对象是河流,又突出了恢复潜流带这一关键内容,是文章的最佳标题。故选A。

Memories are funny, aren’t they? You can be going along, minding your business, and then, all of a sudden, a memory pops into your head. Sometimes memories are triggered (触发) by a song that reminds you of the setting where you first heard it. Or it may be a smell that makes you think of a delicious meal with your friends or family. Perhaps hearing kids arguing makes you remember an unhappy situation with childhood friends. These spontaneous (自发的) memories can be “sweet,” or they might be “sour.” Did you ever wonder what’s going on in your brain that makes your memories produce positive or negative emotions?
Researchers at the Salk Institute for Biologica Studies in California have made a discovery that could help to uncover this secret. The explanation is a bit technical (for those of us who are not brain scientists), but basically it all focuses on a single molecule (分子) called neurotensin (神经降压素). Our surrounding environment is constantly presenting our brain with stimuli (刺激). The molecule neurotensin acts as a key indicator of whether an experience is labeled as positive or negative, depending on the nature of the stimuli. Our brain subsequently associates similar stimuli with the pleasant or painful memory that we experienced.
The study by the Salk Institute was published in the journal Nature. The focus of their experiments was the brain circuitry of laboratory mice. After a sound was played, the mice received either a pleasant swallow of sugary water or, an unpleasant electrical shock or puff of air. The researchers discovered that neurotensin was the signal that associated the sound with reward or with punishment When the gene (基因) that regulates neurotensin was removed from the mice’s brains, they had more difficulty connecting the sound with the sugary water. However, the negative responses were enhanced.
Understanding how neurons in the brain respond to neurotensin could have influences on one’s mental health. Addictions may be caused by overly high levels of neurotensin (connected with positive rewards). On the other hand, depression and anxiety can result when decreased levels of neurotensin allow negative responses to dominate. Thus, regulating neurotensin could help to maintain mental stability. One other thing: The research study showed that the brain may tend to be a pessimist, focusing on fearful memories that cause negative emotional responses.
Perhaps insights into neurotensin will help us have fewer sour memories and more sweet ones.
32.What is the function of neurotensin?
A.To provide our brain with stimuli.
B.To indicate the category of an experience.
C.To focus on the surrounding environment.
D.To associate the stimuli with our memory.
33.What can we learn from the passage?
A.Addictions and anxiety may be related to different levels of neurotensin.
B.The mice were given both sugary water and an electrical shock after hearing a sound.
C.As the gene which controls neurotensin disappeared, the negative responses decreased.
D.The brain prefers connecting with fearful memories which produce unexpected emotions.
34.What is the passage mainly about?
A.What happens in our brain to form our memory.
B.What the discovery of memory can do for mental health.
C.How brain connects our memory with different emotions.
D.How we regulate neurotensin to make us have good emotions.
【答案】32.B 33.A 34.C
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要讲述的是大脑是如何通过神经降压素使我们产生积极或消极情绪的回忆。
32.细节理解题。根据第二段“The molecule neurotensin acts as a key indicator of whether an experience is labeled as positive or negative, depending on the nature of the stimuli.(神经降压素作为一个关键的指标,表明一个经验是被标记为积极的还是消极的,这取决于刺激的性质)”可知,神经降压素可以表明一个经验是积极的还是消极的。故选B。
33.推理判断题。根据第四段“Addictions may be caused by overly high levels of neurotensin (connected with positive rewards). On the other hand, depression and anxiety can result when decreased levels of neurotensin allow negative responses to dominate.(成瘾可能是由过量的神经降压素(与积极的奖励相关)引起的。另一方面,当神经降压素水平的下降导致负面反应占主导地位时,就会导致抑郁和焦虑)”可知,成瘾和焦虑情绪的产生都与神经降压素水平的高低有关。故选A。
34.主旨大意题。根据全文内容及第一段“Did you ever wonder what’s going on in your brain that makes your memories produce positive or negative emotions?(你有没有想过,在你的大脑里发生了什么,让你的记忆产生积极或消极的情绪?)”可知,本文主要讲述大脑是如何通过神经降压素使我们产生积极或消极情绪的回忆。故选C。
第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,共10分)
根据短文内容,从短文后的七个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。
Much smaller in size than the diameter of an average human hair, nanoplastics are invisible to the naked eye. Linked to cardiovascular and respiratory diseases in people, nanoplastics continue to build up, largely unnoticed, in the world’s bodies of water. 35
Therefore, at is urgent to develop better ways to remove nanoplastics from water. However the challenge remains to develop a cost-effective solution to get rid of nanoplastics while leaving clean water behind. 36 Recently, researchers created a cheap liquid-based solution that removes more than 98% of these microscopic plastic particles (颗粒) from water.
The innovative method uses water-resistant solvents (溶剂) made from natural ingredients. It not only offers a practical solution to the pressing issue of nanoplastic pollution but also paves the way for further research and development in advanced water purification technologies. The strategy uses a small amount of designer solvent to absorb plastic particles from a large dume of water. 37 Once mixed with water and allowed to reseparate, the solvent floats back to the surface, carrying the nanoplastics within its molecular structure. Currently, the capacity of the solvent is not well understood. 38 Additionally, they will explore methods to recycle the solvent, enabling their reuse multiple times if necessary.
39 The solvents are made from safe, non-toxic components, and their ability to resist water prevents additional pollution of water sources, making them a highly sustainable solution. From a scientific perspective, creating effective removal methods fosters innovation in filtration technologies, provides insights into nanomaterial behavior, and supports the development of informed environmental policies.
A.That’s where a new research comes in.
B.The cost of producing the solvent is still too high.
C.Previous methods failed to purify and recycle the small particles.
D.Initially, the solvent sits on the water’s surface the way oil floats on water.
E.In future work, researchers aim to determine the maximum capacity of the solvent.
F.The new method offers multiple advantages that are both practical and scientifically significant.
G.They can damage water ecosystems and enter the food chain, threatening wildlife and humans.

阅读下面短文,根据题目要求用英文回答问题。
Good news for procrastinators (拖延者): There is a way to use procrastination to your advantage. Most procrastinators make the mistake of doing nothing at all. But when you use procrastination as motivation to get things done, you can avoid doing that one thing you really would rather not do and be quite productive. It’s what essayist John Perry calls “structured procrastination”.
Let’s say, for example, you have a number of tasks you are avoiding, in order of urgency:1) Finishing an essay; 2) Responding to emails; 3) Cleaning and doing laundry. A non-procrastinator would accomplish these tasks in order of urgency. A procrastinator would avoid doing them altogether. But a structured procrastinator would do them in reverse (反向) — using his desire to avoid writing the essay as motivation to do cleaning and respond to emails. Since he can reprogram by working on other things that are still valuable, he is actually getting a lot done.
College senior Jordan Gonen is what you might call a structured procrastinator. When he is overcome with fear of homework, he’ll preoccupy himself with what he calls “quick wins”—sending emails and writing articles for his blog. “It’s still procrastinating my homework, but instead of doing nothing in the meantime, I’m still getting a lot done,” Gonen says.
Once he gets through these tasks, Gonen can more easily get into the mindset of tackling his homework. “A lot of these smaller tasks aren’t particularly fun or productive, but if you can really knock them out really quickly over a certain period of time, then you can get a lot more done and it doesn’t feel necessarily worse — you’ re just working 100 percent on whatever you’ re working on,” Gonen says.
40.What is “structured procrastination”?
41.How would structured procrastinators handle a number of tasks they are avoiding?
42.Please decide which part is false in the following statement, then underline it and explain why.
Gonen gets through his smaller tasks first because they are fun and productive.
43.Would you use structured procrastination in your daily life? Why or why not? (In about 40 words)
【答案】
40.Using procrastination as motivation to get things done.
41.They would reprogram by working on other things that are still valuable.
42.Gonen gets through his smaller tasks first because they are fun and productive.
Because they can help Gonen get into the mindset of tackling his homework.
43.Yes, I’d use structured procrastination. By tackling smaller, valuable tasks first (like emails), I’d build momentum and avoid anxiety. This way, I’d still achieve progress while postponing tough work, striking a balance between productivity and mental ease.
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了如何利用拖延症提高效率的方法。
40.考查细节理解。由文章第一段中“Good news for procrastinators (拖延者): There is a way to use procrastination to your advantage. Most procrastinators make the mistake of doing nothing at all. But when you use procrastination as motivation to get things done, you can avoid doing that one thing you really would rather not do and be quite productive. It’s what essayist John Perry calls “structured procrastination”. (对于拖延者来说,有个好消息:有一种方法可以让拖延为你所用。大多数拖延者都犯了什么都不做的错误。但当你把拖延当作完成任务的动力时,你可以避开那件你真的不想做的事情,并且还能保持相当高的效率。这就是散文家约翰・佩里所说的“结构化拖延”。)”可知,“结构化拖延”是指把拖延当作完成事情的动力。故答案为Using procrastination as motivation to get things done.
41.考查细节理解。由文章第二段中“But a structured procrastinator would do them in reverse (反向) — using his desire to avoid writing the essay as motivation to do cleaning and respond to emails. Since he can reprogram by working on other things that are still valuable, he is actually getting a lot done. (但一个有规划的拖延者会反向做这些事——利用他避免写论文的欲望作为动力去做清洁和回复邮件。因为他可以通过做其他有价值的事情来重新安排自己的时间,所以他实际上做了很多事情。)”可知,有规划的拖延者会通过处理其他仍然有价值的事情来重新规划。故答案为They would reprogram by working on other things that are still valuable.
42.考查细节理解。由文章最后一段中““A lot of these smaller tasks aren’t particularly fun or productive, but if you can really knock them out really quickly over a certain period of time, then you can get a lot more done and it doesn’t feel necessarily worse — you’ re just working 100 percent on whatever you’ re working on,” Gonen says. (Gonen说:“很多这样的小任务并不是特别有趣或高效,但如果你能在一定时间内迅速完成它们,那么你就能完成更多的事情,而且感觉也不一定更糟——你只是全身心地投入到正在做的事情中。”)”可知,Gonen先完成这些较小的任务,并不是因为它们有趣且富有成效,而是因为快速完成这些任务后可以完成更多的事情。所以“Gonen gets through his smaller tasks first because they are fun and productive.”这句话中“because they are fun and productive”部分错误。故答案为Gonen gets through his smaller tasks first because they are fun 43 productive.Because they can help Gonen get into the mindset of tackling his homework.
38.开放性题目。此题要求回答:你会在日常生活中使用结构化拖延吗?为什么或为什么不呢?答案不唯一,合理即可。例如:是的,我会采用结构化拖延法。通过先处理一些较小且有价值的任务(比如回复电子邮件),我能够积攒动力,并且避免焦虑。这样一来,在推迟处理棘手工作的同时,我仍能取得进展,在工作效率和内心轻松之间达成平衡。故答案为Yes, I’d use structured procrastination. By tackling smaller, valuable tasks first (like emails), I’d build momentum and avoid anxiety. This way, I’d still achieve progress while postponing tough work, striking a balance between productivity and mental ease.
