nicer and more empathetic(善解人意的)people.(一项新的研究表明，那些经常阅读，尤其是经常阅读小说的人实 际上是更友善、更有同理心的人。)”以及第五段中的“Romance and drama lovers showed the ability to see others' points of view,while comedy fans were particularly able to relate to others the most..(爱情故事和戏剧爱好者表现 出了理解他人观，点的能力，而喜剧迷尤其擅长与他人产生共鸣。)”可知，经常阅读小说的人更有同理心，而喜剧迷 尤其能够与他人产生共鸣。由此推知，读小说和喜剧最能让人善解人意。故选A。 35.B推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“However,they do acknowledge that their study didn't conclude if the effects are causal-does reading make you nicer and more empathetic,or do more empathetic people tend to read fiction? (然而，他们确实承认，他们的研究并没有得出结论，这些影响是不是随机的一是阅读会让人变得更好、更有同理 心，还是更有同理心的人更喜欢阅读小说？)”可推知，这个问题需要进一步研究。故选B。 【语篇导读】这是一篇议论文。短文介绍了“收藏能滋养大脑的快乐中枢”的相关信息，文章为总分结构。 36.C段首句。用以引出下文。根据下文“More than I00,O00 years ago,our ancestors searched for crystals,shells, and other objects just as seeking for food.”可推知，Collecting由来已久。故选C。 37.B段中句。承上启下，此处重在与上下文的衔接。根据上文“While the motivations to collect are varied,they typically center around developing a more positive sense of self""In terms of the latter,stuff is obtained indiscriminately(不加区分地).Instead of creating a sense of self-worth,the behavior typically makes those who are accustomed to it feel bad about themselves.”可知，本段的重心在于强调Collecting通常能够培养更积极的自我 意识，而囤东西则会有让人感觉糟糕的负面效果，所以中间衔接的句子选择“That distinguishes collecting from storing up.(这使得收藏和囤货区分开来。)”故选B。 英语参考答案（稚礼版）一2 38.A段首句。段落主旨句。根据下文“，You have to figure out where you can find the desired items,what they're worth,and how you will organize and display your collections,Mueller says.Those activities stimulate areas of the brain involved in executive functioning,skills that include working memory,multitasking,and impulse- control.,”可推知，Collecting需要获取相关知识。故选A。 39.D段中句。承上启下。根据上文“Each object is associated with a person,experience,.or moment in time.”和下 文“This sort of collecting facilitates one's recall about the past"可推知，通过那种方式（和人物、经历、一段时光相 关联的方式)，收藏可以充当一个实体的时光机器的功能。故选D。 40.F段末句。用以承接上文。根据上文“Collecting also seems to hit fundamental psychological needs.‘Collectors often report that the friendship of other collectors is one of the most rewarding aspects of collecting.'Schmeichel reports in Leisure Sciences.Interacting with sellers,other collectors,or even admirers of your collection can also serve as a foundation for relationship-building.”可知，收藏者能收获的最大的回报之一是和其他收藏者的友谊，因 收藏和别人的互动可以作为建立关系的基础。由此可推知，Collecting带给人精神上的归属感和满足感。故选F。 【语篇导读】这是一篇记叙文。作者回忆了自己20年前在新译西州的Kingda Ka坐过山车的惊险体验。尽管在过

"Then the vet gave him a shot.He's improving now,"Larry's wife added excitedly.On hearing these words,I sighed with relief.I thanked her for the good news and joked,"Your husband is really sharp-tongued but tender- hearted."With Larry's continual help,Old Red's tail wagged weakly again.Seeing Larry kneel beside the dog,gently offering him food,his mother,though initially fearful,was touched and softened.It was love that broke barriers, proving that compassion could melt even the coldest fears.From that day on.Old Red had not only just a carpet by the shop,but a home where he belonged-a testament to the power of kindness to transform lives. 听力材料 Text 1 M:So what do you advise?

Text 10 M:Scientists believe they know why birds'eggs are different in shapes.Some eggs are quite round;some are kind of potato-shaped;and others are longer and pointy.A new study from Princeton University in the US suggests that the shape of the egg depends on how well and how fast the female birds fly.Mary Stoddard said,"It has not gone unnoticed that birds have evolved to lay eggs with shapes that are quite diverse in form."Mary Stoddard and her colleagues mapped the shape of different eggs.They visited many egg farmers and interviewed 3.000 bird watchers. They looked at almost 50,000 eggs from 1,400 different kinds of birds.The researchers put the shape,length and height of the eggs into a computer database.They also looked at how oval the eggs were.The researchers found that the birds that lay the most-oval-shaped eggs were the best fliers.They also found that hummingbirds lay the most-oval-shaped eggs.and sea birds lay the pointiest eggs. 英语参考答案（稚礼版）一6孩孔中学2024一2025学桌度高二第二学精精装考试 7.How lng does Steve train each day?
