One student, Murphy, suggests a large container filled with water that would heat up and produce steam (蒸汽) to power a car. Although the idea has limitations, climate scientist Ben Kravitz appreciates it, saying that steam power, while old, still works. Kravitz developed a lesson with Paul Goddard, a research scientist, and Kirstin Milks, a high school science teacher. The lesson encourages students to think creatively about reducing pollution and solving global warming. Milks believes it’s important for students to not only understand the dangers of climate change but also feel confident to come up with solutions. She says, “These students will lead the future climate work.” The lesson covers the basics of climate change, explaining that burning coal, oil, and gas gives off carbon dioxide (CO2), the main cause of global warming. Kravitz stresses that reducing greenhouse gas emissions (is the only lasting solution, but new technologies, such as wind and solar energy, are needed to make progress. In the meantime, Kravitz and other scientists are exploring ways, such as climate engineering, to reduce the planet’s temperature. Climate engineering includes techniques like reflecting sunlight back into space or removing CO2 from the atmosphere. However, these ways come with risks, such as changing weather systems and rainfall patterns, leading to loss of biodiversity and impacting agriculture. Students are encouraged to think about such challenges when developing their ideas. Through this lesson Milks hopes to develop in students both awareness and optimism (乐观), showing them that they can play a role in solving global issues. 4. What is Murphy’s idea? A. Design a special car. B. Power cars with steam. C. Discover new energy. D. Make a drinking machine. 5. Why was this lesson developed? A. To equip students for climate action. B. To discuss the benefits of using solar energy. C. To encourage students to stop using coal and gas. D. To explain climate change affects weather systems. 6. What can we know about climate engineering? A. It can absorb the sunlight. B. It can add CO2 to the atmosphere. C. It may enrich the biodiversity. D. It may have effects on agriculture. 7. What is a suitable title for the passage? A. The challenges of climate engineering. B. Students’ contributions to steam power. C. The development of climate-related technologies. D. Students’ creative ideas for a better climate future. 【答案】4. B 5. A 6. D 7.

You’re not alone. Steven Chase, a scientist at Carnegie Mellon University, studied what could happen in the brain under pressure. The experiments show that pressure is linked to a drop in activity in the brain area that prepares for movement, just as athletes fail under stress. The team first experimented with certain monkeys and set up a computer task for them. The monkeys moved a cursor (光标) on a screen to get rewards ranging from small to medium, large, or even a rare and big “jackpot” which was meant to create high-pressure situations, similar to what athletes face in critical moments. To see the changes in brain activity, the researchers put a small chip (芯片) into the monkeys’ motor cortex, the part of the brain that controls movement. During jackpot setting, the activity of the neurons (神经元) that help in movement planning decreased. This drop in such activity made the monkeys less prepared, leading to worse performance. The study showed a complex relationship between rewards and performance. The team have found that while small rewards can improve performance, too many rewards can actually make it worse. This is known as the “neural-bias hypothesis”, which says that too much pressure can destroy the brain’s best function. The research also looked into why motor preparation decreased under high pressure. It suggested that as the reward got bigger, the brain’s activity reached a peak and then started to decline. In conclusion, understanding why people and animals fail under pressure can help us develop better ways to manage stressful situations and perform better when it matters most. 8. Why was the “jackpot” reward used in the experiment? A. To create high-pressure situations. B. To train the problem-solving skills. C. To improve monkeys’ intelligence. D. To provide extra food for monkeys. 9. How did the researchers measure brain activity in monkeys? A By observing their hobbies. B. By using a chip put in the brain. C. By giving them similar rewards. D. By monitoring their heart rate. 10. What does the “neural-bias hypothesis” suggest? A. Rewards hardly affect brain function. B. Monkeys perform better under no pressure. C. Small rewards seldom improve performance. D. Too many rewards can cause bad performance. 11. What does the study focus on? A. Approaches to dealing with great stress. B. How rewards impact brain development. C. Links of pressure to performance failure. D. How good athletes face their challenges. 【答案】8. A 9. B 10. D 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一项研究发现压力与大脑运动准备区域活动下降有关，揭示了奖励和表现关系复杂，小奖励可提升表现但过多则会使表现更糟。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“The monkeys moved a cursor (光标) on a screen to get rewards ranging from small to medium, large, or even a rare and big “jackpot” which was meant to create high-pressure situations, similar to what athletes face in critical moments. (猴子们在屏幕上移动光标，以获得从小到中、大，甚至是一个罕见的大“头奖”，这是为了创造高压环境，类似于运动员在关键时刻所面临的情况)”可知，在实验中，“头奖”被用来制造高压环境。故选A项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“To see the changes in brain activity, the researchers put a small chip (芯片) into the monkeys’ motor cortex, the part of the brain that controls movement. (为了观察大脑活动的变化，研究人员将一个小芯片放入猴子的运动皮层，这是大脑中控制运动的部分)”可知，研究人员通过在猴子大脑中植入芯片来测量大脑活动。故选B项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“The team have found that while small rewards can improve performance, too many rewards can actually make it worse. This is known as the “neural-bias hypothesis”, which says that too much pressure can destroy the brain’s best function. (该团队发现，虽然小的奖励可以提高表现，但太多的奖励实际上会让它变得更糟。这被称为“神经偏差假说”，该假说认为，过大的压力会破坏大脑的最佳功能)”可知，该假说认为过多的奖励会导致糟糕的表现。故选D项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“Steven Chase, a scientist at Carnegie Mellon University, studied what could happen in the brain under pressure. The experiments show that pressure is linked to a drop in activity in the brain area that prepares for movement, just as athletes fail under stress. (卡内基梅隆大学的科学家Steven Chase研究了大脑在压力下会发生什么。实验表明，压力与准备运动的大脑区域活动下降有关，就像运动员在压力下失败一样)”可知，该研究与压力下的大脑活动相关，研究结果显示的是压力和大脑活动下降意味着的失败之间的关联。由此可知，研究的重点是压力与表现失常之间的联系。故选C项。 D Talking about glasses, not just any kind but those that are kind to the planet, we mean the green glasses. Have you heard of glasses that look stylish, feel comfortable, and most importantly, don’t harm the environment? Let’s get to know more about the sustainable glasses. You might be surprised to learn how far your glasses are from green. They’re often made from plastic and metal, which use a lot of energy and resources to produce. The process of making them can be harmful to the environment. From the harmful chemicals used in the frames (镜框) to the energy needed to get them to you, there’s a lot that can be improved. As for the new type of glasses, we pay special attention to how the glasses are made. Companies that care about the environment will make sure their glasses last a long time, from when they start making them to when they’re no longer needed. This means they use materials that come from renewable sources rather than limit themselves to local materials. For example, they might use wood from forests that are managed well or recycled materials. They also use energy-saving machines and try to reduce waste. In a word, they make sure that the glasses are made in a responsible way. To our customers, green glasses are the best option for us to protect our eyes and the planet at the same time. By choosing these glasses, we’re helping the planet and making a positive change. The future of glasses is looking bright! The way glasses are made is changing, with green materials and methods. As more people become interested in green products and technology improves, there will be more green choices available. Choose green glasses that look great and help the planet. Be part of the change and see the future in a better way. 12. What does the underlined word “sustainable” in paragraph 1 probably mean? A. Limited. B. Eco-friendly. C. Expensive. D. Old-fashioned. 13. Which can best describe the new type of glasses? A. It uses plastic frames. B. It adopts the latest design. C. Its material is got locally. D.

B At a high school in Indiana, a group of students are working on ideas to deal with climate change. One student, Murphy, suggests a large container filled with water that would heat up and produce steam (蒸汽) to power a car. Although the idea has limitations, climate scientist Ben Kravitz appreciates it, saying that steam power, while old, still works. Kravitz developed a lesson with Paul Goddard, a research scientist, and Kirstin Milks, a high school science teacher. The lesson encourages students to think creatively about reducing pollution and solving global warming. Milks believes it’s important for students to not only understand the dangers of climate change but also feel confident to come up with solutions. She says, “These students will lead the future climate work.” The lesson covers the basics of climate change, explaining that burning coal, oil, and gas gives off carbon dioxide (CO2), the main cause of global warming. Kravitz stresses that reducing greenhouse gas emissions (is the only lasting solution, but new technologies, such as wind and solar energy, are needed to make progress. In the meantime, Kravitz and other scientists are exploring ways, such as climate engineering, to reduce the planet’s temperature. Climate engineering includes techniques like reflecting sunlight back into space or removing CO2 from the atmosphere. However, these ways come with risks, such as changing weather systems and rainfall patterns, leading to loss of biodiversity and impacting agriculture. Students are encouraged to think about such challenges when developing their ideas. Through this lesson Milks hopes to develop in students both awareness and optimism (乐观), showing them that they can play a role in solving global issues. 4. What is Murphy’s idea? A. Design a special car. B. Power cars with steam. C. Discover new energy. D. Make a drinking machine. 5. Why was this lesson developed? A. To equip students for climate action. B To discuss the benefits of using solar energy. C. To encourage students to stop using coal and gas. D. To explain climate change affects weather systems. 6. What can we know about climate engineering? A. It can absorb the sunlight. B. It can add CO2 to the atmosphere. C. It may enrich the biodiversity. D. It may have effects on agriculture. 7. What is a suitable title for the passage? A. The challenges of climate engineering. B. Students’ contributions to steam power. C. The development of climate-related technologies. D. Students’ creative ideas for a better climate future. C Have you ever been in a situation where you needed to do well but failed because of the pressure? You’re not alone. Steven Chase, a scientist at Carnegie Mellon University, studied what could happen in the brain under pressure. The experiments show that pressure is linked to a drop in activity in the brain area that prepares for movement, just as athletes fail under stress. The team first experimented with certain monkeys and set up a computer task for them. The monkeys moved a cursor (光标) on a screen to get rewards ranging from small to medium, large, or even a rare and big “jackpot” which was meant to create high-pressure situations, similar to what athletes face in critical moments. To see the changes in brain activity, the researchers put a small chip (芯片) into the monkeys’ motor cortex, the part of the brain that controls movement. During jackpot setting, the activity of the neurons (神经元) that help in movement planning decreased. This drop in such activity made the monkeys less prepared, leading to worse performance. The study showed a complex relationship between rewards and performance. The team have found that while small rewards can improve performance, too many rewards can actually make it worse. This is known as the “neural-bias hypothesis”, which says that too much pressure can destroy the brain’s best function. The research also looked into why motor preparation decreased under high pressure. It suggested that as the reward got bigger, the brain’s activity reached a peak and then started to decline. In conclusion, understanding why people and animals fail under pressure can help us develop better ways to manage stressful situations and perform better when it matters most. 8. Why was the “jackpot” reward used in the experiment? A. To create high-pressure situations. B. To train the problem-solving skills. C. To improve monkeys’ intelligence. D. To provide extra food for monkeys. 9. How did the researchers measure brain activity in monkeys? A. By observing their hobbies. B. By using a chip put in the brain. C. By giving them similar rewards. D. By monitoring their heart rate. 10. What does the “neural-bias hypothesis” suggest? A. Rewards hardly affect brain function. B. Monkeys perform better under no pressure. C. Small rewards seldom improve performance. D. Too many rewards can cause bad performance. 11. What does the study focus on? A. Approaches to dealing with great stress. B. How rewards impact brain development. C. Links of pressure to performance failure. D. How good athletes face their challenges. D Talking about glasses, not just any kind but those that are kind to the planet, we mean the green glasses. Have you heard of glasses that look stylish, feel comfortable, and most importantly, don’t harm the environment? Let’s get to know more about the sustainable glasses. You might be surprised to learn how far your glasses are from green. They’re often made from plastic and metal, which use a lot of energy and resources to produce. The process of making them can be harmful to the environment. From the harmful chemicals used in the frames (镜框) to the energy needed to get them to you, there’s a lot that can be improved. As for the new type of glasses, we pay special attention to how the glasses are made. Companies that care about the environment will make sure their glasses last a long time, from when they start making them to when they’re no longer needed. This means they use materials that come from renewable sources rather than limit themselves to local materials. For example, they might use wood from forests that are managed well or recycled materials. They also use energy-saving machines and try to reduce waste. In a word, they make sure that the glasses are made in a responsible way. To our customers, green glasses are the best option for us to protect our eyes and the planet at the same time. By choosing these glasses, we’re helping the planet and making a positive change. The future of glasses is looking bright! The way glasses are made is changing, with green materials and methods. As more people become interested in green products and technology improves, there will be more green choices available. Choose green glasses that look great and help the planet. Be part of the change and see the future in a better way. 12. What does the underlined word “sustainable” in paragraph 1 probably mean? A. Limited. B. Eco-friendly. C. Expensive. D.
