At 14,Kobayashi came across a video of a historical Peking Opera.The Battle of Red Cliffs.Although he didn't understand the language,he was captivated by the costumes,makeup,and music.At 17.he found a website for the Shincyo Theater,a Peking Opera troupe (in Tokyo founded by Zhang Chunxiang,a Beijing-bom artist,who had moved to Japan in the 1980s and founded the Shincyo Theater to promote Pcking Opera in Japan. Kobayashi emailed the theater,sharing with Zhang his passion for Peking Opera,and his desire to join the troupe.Zhang was impressed by his passion.At 18,Kobayashi moved to Tokyo to attend Chuo University, majoring in Chinese language and culture,while attending Zhang's Peking Opera classes every Saturday. Zhang teaches his students by explaining the movements of Peking Opera in simple Japancsc.Kobayashi, who enjoys playing civil roles,listens to famous performances to leam the music and get a sense of the roles. He works with Zhang to improve his performance.Years of hard work paid off.In 2020,Kobayashi finally got the chance and debuted in a small painted-face role in Wild Boar Forest one of Shincyo Theater's productions. which got well-received. After graduation,Kobayashi worked for a company in cosmetics,but he still studies Peking Opera in his free time and occasionally performs with Shincyo Theater."Becoming a professional Peking Opera performer 4/11 in Japan is difficult and might not be practical as a long-term career.In China,performers usually start training at four or five,whereas I began close to 20.Even so.I'd still like to pursue it professionally and give it my best shot"said Kobayashi. 24.What sparked Kobayashi's initial interest in Chinese history and culture?

C The human brain is sensitive to shortage.The sense of not having enough of what we need makes it harder for us to focus and plan.In recent work,however,we found that people reagi to water shortage very differently than they do to other shortages. As a species that is heavily dependent on water,we seem to be wired to plan for it.The loss of water prompts a general mindset of thrift and long-term thinking This discovery could have important implications for humankind's response to climate change. We explored people's thinking about water in several ways.In onc experiment,we brought 2100 college students to the lab and asked some of them to read an article we provided.Some received an article that was desperate in tone.It detailed predictions of the worst "water shortage in 1,200 years."Others read a more positive article that described how climate change means more rain and therefore enough water.The rest of 5/1u the students completed the study without reading an article. We then asked the students how important it was to save resources and think about the long terra.In a survey,participants who read about a serious shortage agreed more with statements such as "People should live for the future,"In contrast,people who read about a future water surplus were pushed in the opposite direction.Compared with those who had answered the questions without reading about climate change at all, they were more likely to support living for the present and careless about saving money and other resources. In the follow-up study,we looked for places where communities have experienced real water shortage for generations.We found two geographically close cities in Iran-Shiraz and Yazd-that have similar economies and the same majority religion,and language but sharply different amounts of water Shiraz receives enough rainfall to support vineyards that produce its world-famous wine.Nearby Yazd is bone-dry.We gave psychological tests to 331 people in Shiraz and Yazd to measure how much individuals prioritize the fuiture. Sure enough,people in Yazd thought that planning for the future was more important than these in Shiraz did. Across studics,our findings suggest that water has a meaningful place in our thinking-one that is distinct from other important resources,including wealth.There is evidence of evolutionary wiring for water in our sense of smell.Humans are beuter at detecting the scent of fresh rainfll than sharks are at detecting blood. That sensitivity might be crucial going forward.Climate change is making droughts more common.Our work suggests that as many places dry up.global warming could reshape how people think pushing entire communities toward more cautious future-oriented behavior.That may offer a sliver of hope in the middle of the threat of climate change. 38.What was the purpose of the experiment conducted with college students in the lab? A.To analyze their reaction to climate change predictions. B.To measure their current levels of resource conservation. C.To observe their psychological response to water shortage articles. D.To compare their views on long-term planning with those who didn't read about climate change. 29.What's the possible rcason that the rescarchers chose Shiraz and Yazd as the subjects of their study? A.They are neighboring cities with similar demographics but conurasting water availability. B.They have been historically significant in water management practices. C.They are famous fof their cultural significance in relation to water conservation. D.They have different climates.making them ideal for studying emvironmental adaptation, 6/1u 30.Why does the author compare humans with sharks in paragraph 6? A.To highlight the similarities betwcen human and shark behavior in response to resource scarcity. B.To support the argument that humans'sensitivity to water shortage is rooted in evolutionary ficlors. C.To emphasize humans'superior ability lo detect water-rclated signals compared to other species. D.To illustrate the evolutionary differences in sensitivity to cnvironmental cucs between humans and sharks. 3).According to the article,what's the significance of the study? A.It shows that people's awarencss of climate change can be prompted. B.It suggests that water shortage may urge humans to live in the momenL C.K confimms that people react similarly to all types of resource shortages. D.It highliphts the importace of immediate actions to address water shortage. 0 Franz Boas's description of Inuit(因纽特人)life in the I9 h century illustrates the probable moral code of carly humans.Here.norms (were unwrinen and rarely expressed clearly.but were well understood and taken to heart Dishonest and violent behaviours were disapproved of:leadership,marriage and interactions with other groups were loosely govemed by traditions.Conflict was often resolved in musical baules.Because arguing angrily lcads to chaos.it was strongly discouraged.With life in the unforgiving Northern Canada being so demanding the Inuit's practical approach to morality made good sense. The similarity of moral virtues across culnres is striking even though the relative ranking of the virtucs may vary with a social group's history and euvironment Typically.cruelty and cheating arc discouraged, while cooperation.humbleness and courage are praised.These universal norms far pre-datc the concept of any moralising religion or wriuen law.Instead,they are rooted in the similarity of basic human needs and our shared mechanisms for lcaming and problem solving.Our social instincts()include the intensc desire to belong.The approval of others is rewarding.while their disapproval is strongly disliked.These social cmotions prepare our brains to shape our behaviour according to the norms and values of our family and our commmity.More generally.social instincts motivate us to learn how to bchave in a socially complex world. The mechanism involves a repurposed reward system originally used to develop habits important for self-care.Our brins use the system to acquire behavioural pauems regarding safe routes homc,cfficient food gathering and dangers to avoid:Good habits save time,energy and sometimes your life.Good social habits do 7/1 something similar in a social context.We leam to tell the uruth,cven when lying is self-serving:we help a grandparent cven when it is inconvenient We acquire what we call a sense of righ and wrong. Social bencfits arc accompanied by social demands:we must get along.but not put up with too much. Hence self-disciplinc is advantagcous.In humans,a greatly enlarged brain boosts self-control.just as it boosts problem-solving skills in the social as well as the physical world.Thesc abilities are strengthened by our capacity for language,which allows social practices to develop in extremcly unobvious ways. 32.What can be inferred about the forming of the Inuit's moral code? A.Living conditions were the drive. B.Unwritten rules were the target C.Social tradition was thc basis. D.Honesty was the key. 33.What can we learn from this passage? A.Inconveniences are the cause of telling lics. B.Basic human needs lead to universal norms. C.Language capacity is limited by self-control. D.Written laws have great influence on virtues. 34.Which would be the best title for this passage? A.Virtues:Bridges Across Cultures B.The Values of Sclf-discipline C.Brains:Walls Against Chaos D.The Roots of Morality 第二节七选五（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筑入空白处的最佳选项，并在答匾卡上将该项涂鸟， 选项中有两项为多余选项 Sometimes in our life we face this problem:loved ones as well as strangers annoving us.At home,we've had to put up with children screaming during online meetings,and family members on the computer all the time.35 Kindness scems like a distant memory.The ability to live peacefully with annoying housemates or neighbors seems more difficult than cver.B6 If we mke kindness as a skill.making it a daily practice. iLvyill come easier over time. 37Loving Kindness Meditation ((LKM).which dates back to the time of its roots to carly Buddhism,helps us find sympathy for one another even during trving times.The meditation asks us to send thoughts of loving kindness to loved ones.then to acquaintances (people you don't know very well)and 8/1u finally to challenging people.Over time,our-unkind thoughts are replaced with more open,accepting ones. Anger is replaced by love,or at least kindness. Donald Altman,a psychetherapist from Portland,Oregon,says LKM helps us recognize we are all weak and have been hurt.38 So how?To begin with,Altman suggests finding a quiet place to sit.He says to then imagine a favorite family member or friend sending you the words,"May you be well,happy and at peace."After a few minutes, direct the words at yourself,"May I be well,happy and at peace."39 Replace the"I"with the name of a teacher or coach,then a family member or friend,then an acquantance,and finally an unfriendly person in your life.End the meditation by spreading the blessing to all living beings. Indeed,we should find our own way toward LKM-but only if we are prepared to access its benefits and extend them to anyone who may need them. A The good news is that it isn't lost 8 Luckily,we can look to ancient disciplines fo guidance. At work,we've had to face the added pressure these demanding jobs create. D.Then,extend the blessing to other people,in order of decreasing fondness. E.For that reason,we could all benefit from loves warm and comforting blessing. F.You can combine the words with breathing,repeating a phrase of love for yourself. G.Outside,we've met drivers specding on busy roads and passengers talking loudly on the subway. 第三部分框词填空（共10小题，每小题2分，共20分） Goup】请用方框中的单词或短语完成句子。注意有两个多余选项。 eam a living mingrity illustrate otherwise head to carry on desire 40.Millions of peeple their hometown to celebrate the Spring Festival each year. 4l.You can't expect to」 as a painter. 42.With a strong_ __to help other people,he volunteers in a nursing home every weekend. 43.Only a small of the students take part in the competition in our school. 44.I was caught in a traffic jam for over an hour, I wouldn't have kept you waiting for such a long time. 9/11 Goup2请用方框中单词或短语的正确形式完成句子。注意有两个多余选项。 definite in despair rejection occur seek one's tortune response claim 45.Many yaung pcople leave their hometown in the big city. 46.And what a city -a city that was able to rebuild itself after the earthquake that in1906. 47.The team will lose ifhe doesn't play. 48.I asked him his name,but he didn't 49.I've been_ by all the universities I applied to. 第四部分阅读表达（共4小题；第50、51、小题各2分，第52小题3分，第53小题5分， 共12分) 阅读下面短文，根据题目要求回答问题。 Over the years I have been fascinated to read about studies into the power of touch. One famous study examined videos of how people responded to those near them who had been the victim of a bad fortune.Researchers looked at their interaction with the victim,and compared this with behaviours in non-human primates(灵长类动物).It found that humans and primates comfort one another and demonstrate care in a similar way.It makes sense for me that offering hugs to calm victims may be an instinct that we got from pnmate ancestors. Another study found that when the husband or wife of a patient in sorrow or discomfort reaches out and holds their hand and,as if by magic,they become setled and less sorrowful.Perhaps we shouldn't be surprised,as we have known for many years about the importance of touch.It symbolises safety and love.and this is actually one of the most important aspects for development as a child.Is it any wonder that,when we are upset and distressed as adults,we seck out the same things?Whether young or old,humans are wired to be touched. Nevertheless many people today suffer from"touch hunger,which typically occurs when a person experiences little touch or contact for a long time.It serves as a warning that the sense of security and care that comes with the contact of touch is missing.Thus,their well-being can suffer.It is associated with greater stress.anxiety and loneliness,and lower-quality sleep. Actually,even the briefest touch from us can bring strong emotional experiences to the receivers who suffer from "touch hunger".A warm handshake,a gentle pat on the shoulder,or a high-five is often enough to convey love and care.
