The analysis puts perceived reductions in speed down to people becoming more cautious as they get older.This could account for the large body of research that has concluded that mental processing speed peaks at about the age of 20 and undergoes a steady decline from that point onwards. "Our finding is encouraging,as our results show that average levels in mental speed in contexts demanding fast and forced decisions do not decline until relatively late in the lifespan,"said Dr.Mischa Von Krause,of Heidelberg University. The study,published in the journal Nature Human Behaviour,used data from 1,185,882 participants,aged 10 to 80 years,in Harvard's Project Implicit,an online tool that has been used to collect data. Participants are required to answer some questions. The analysis suggested that 20-year-olds were quickest because they were the most willing to trade accuracy for speed.The researchers concluded that the purely mechanical part of the response (how fast a person sees the question and taps the keyboard)was quickest in those aged 14-16.Mental processing state appeared to peak at about age 30,and declined only very slightly between 30 and 60.Participants also made fewer mistakes as they became older,at least until the age of about 60. Von Krause said the work raised the suggestion that people may excel at different tasks depending on their age."Obviously,there are real-life tasks where it is crucial to avoid mistakes,such as in a medical diagnosis,while in other tasks,such as avoiding an obstacle on the road,speed is more important,"he said.However,he added that,within certain limits, people were likely to be able to adapt their decision-making style to suit the demands of a situation. 1.Which of the following do old people believe according to Paragraph 2? A.Better safe than sorry. B.Well begun is half done. C.All is well that ends well. D.Strike while the iron is hot. 2.Why did Dr.Mischa Von Krause think the finding encouraging? A.Our brains will keep growing. B.Our brains become slow quite late. C.Our mental power won't decline. D.Our mental speed will stay fast after 60. 3.When do we process mentally best according to Paragraph 6? A.At the age of 14-16. B.At the age of 20. C.At the age of 30. D.At the age of 40. 4.What did Von Krause try to convey in the last paragraph? A.We should try to respond quickly in many cases. B.We should make careful decisions whatever we do. C.Both the old and the young have their advantages. D.People have quite different decision-making styles. 53 名师英语专项训练·高考 B 话题：电动飞机助力环保 体裁：说明文 词数：344+158 阅读理解 难度：★★★★☆ 建议用时：8分钟 答案册：P25 United Airlines is aiming to have electric aircraft flying regional routes by the end of the decade,part of the company's goal to fully reduce its carbon footprint to net zero by 2050. Those battery-powered aircraft are being developed by Swedish start-up Heart Aerospace,from which United placed an order for 100 planes in July 2021.United Airlines has pushed heavily into a variety of lower-emission forms of aviation,not only announcing plans to buy electric air taxis and vertical aircraft,as well as hydrogen-electric engines but also investing in the companies behind the advanced technologies. "We cannot continue doing and operating our business the way we do;it is important that we change it,and the way we're going to change it is through investing in technology,"Mike Leskinen,United Airlines Ventures president,said in an interview as part of CNBC's ESG Impact virtual conference on Thursday."Existing technology is going to either cause us to fly less,which is an unacceptable alternative,or continue with a carbon footprint,which we believe is equally unacceptable,"Leskinen said. Heart Aerospace,which recently redesigned what will be its first electric aircraft which is now called the ES-30,plans to have the planes enter service in 2028,said Anders Forslund, the company's CEO and founder. The 30-passenger planes will be driven by electric motors with battery-derived energy, allowing the planes to have a fully electric range of 200 kilometers (124 miles).The planes will also include a reserve-hybrid engine powered by sustainable aviation fuel,allowing it to have an extended range of up to 400 kilometers with a full flight. United could potentially offer those shorter routes not only with greater frequency but at a lower cost,Leskinen said."As we adopt electric aircraft,I think the cost for a 30-seat aircraft,50-seat aircraft as the industry evolves is going to be lower cost than a traditional aircraft,"he said.For small cities,this means they are "going to get either service that they didn't have before or greater frequency of service,"he added. 1.What do we learn about the electric planes mentioned in the text?

A dopamine hit brings about pleasure,and then is quickly followed by pain,in order to keep us motivated.Lembke says this balancing see-saw of pleasure and pain made sense in the time of early humans,when we had to constantly search for our basic needs-food,water, shelter."It's really a smart method to make sure that no matter what we do,that's pleasurable.It doesn't last very long and it's followed by pain so that immediately we're searching again,"she explains. But,in modern life,we live in a world of abundance,and Lembke says our brains weren't evolved for the“fire hose(消防软管)of dopamine”of sugar,social media,the Internet,TV, drugs or anything else so easily available.In short,Lembke says,almost every behavior has become a drug. When we're repeatedly exposed to our pleasure-producing stimuli(刺激物)，our brains adjust and,eventually,we need more and more just to feel "normal",or not in pain.That's called a "dopamine deficit state",and the cycle that leads us there can actually lead to depression or anxiety. Finally,Lembke says,this is a universal problem-not one limited to those of us struggling with the disease of addiction-that has come with living in modern life. To maintain balance and whole-heartedness,we have to strike a pleasure-pain balance, which,in a time of abundance and over-consumption,means intentionally avoiding pleasure and seeking the kind of purposeful pain that keeps us healthy,such as exercise or resisting certain temptations."By doing that,"Lembke says,"We will reset reward pathways and ultimately be a lot happier.It's simple but not easy,but it's well worth doing." 1.What do we learn about dopamine? A.It produces lasting happiness. B.It brings temporary pleasure. C.It produces lasting sadness. D.It brings temporary pain. 2.What does Dr.Anna Lembke think of our ancient ancestors'balancing see-saw of pleasure and pain? A.It's useless. B.It's harmful. C.It's necessary. D.It's impossible. 3.What fact does "dopamine deficit state"refer to? A.We have too much entertainment. B.We lack pleasure-producing stimuli. C.We never reach a state of happiness.D.We are always seeking more pleasure. 4.What is Dr.Anna Lembke's final suggestion? A.Try to enjoy pain. B.Avoid having fun. C.Run after comfort. D.Choose to live in pain. 56 Part2能力提升 B 话题：美好生活的真相 体裁：议论文 词数：277+65 七选五 难度：★★★☆☆ 建议用时：7分钟 答案册：P27 Let's begin with a question:If you had to make one life choice,right now,to set yourself on the path to future happiness,what would it be? Would you choose to put more money into savings each month?To change careers? 1 What single choice could best ensure that when you reach your final days and look back,you'll feel that you've lived a good life? 2.Seventy-six percent said that becoming rich was their number one goal.Fifty percent said a major goal was to become famous.More than a decade later,after millennials (千禧一代)had spent more time as adults,similar questions were asked again.3,but the top goals again included things like making money,having a successful career,and becoming debt-free. These are common and practical goals that extend across generations and borders.4 even though most of us understand that these things do not necessarily make for a happy life on their own. Meanwhile,all day long we were surrounded by messages about what will make us happy.If a friend buys a new car,we might wonder if a newer car would make our own life better.As we scroll social media feeds seeing only pictures of fantastic parties,we might wonder if our own life is lacking in parties. Over time we develop the feeling that our life is here,now,and the things we need for a good life are over there,or in the future.5 However,the truth is:The good life is a complicated life.The good life is a process.It includes sorrows,joys,calm,lightness, burdens,struggles,achievements,setbacks,leaps forward,and terrible falls. A.Always just out of reach B.Fame was now lower on the list C.Would you decide to travel more D.What have you achieved in the past years E.It's only human nature to pursue material comforts F.Success in life is often measured by title,salary,and achievement G.In a 2007 survey,millennials were asked about their most important life goals 2. 3. 5. 57 名师英语专项训练·高考 话题：助人为乐 体裁：记叙文 词数：285+68 完形填空 难度：★★★★☆ 建议用时：13分钟 答案册：P27 Anyone who has experienced poverty knows firsthand how hard finding a pathway out can be.For some 1 enough to have made the transition(),the desire to lift up those who are still 2 can become a huge part of their lives.

The climate pledges()made by nations at last year's COP26 conference felt like a positive step in the right direction,but there's very little doubt that the average temperature rise on Earth will exceed the 1.5 degree mark in the coming decades.Can we limit this overshoot?And how might we do that? A study,released Thursday in the scientific journal Nature Climate Change,tried to answer those questions by modeling 27 different emissions reduction pathways of varying ambition.It came to an unsurprising conclusion:Countries need to act as well as increase the ambition of their climate pledges.And they need to act now. The 1.5 degree rise has long been seen as a critical mark in the fight against climate change.Since the signing of the Paris Agreement at COP21 seven years ago,scientists have rigorously studied how this level of warming above preindustrial temperatures would affect the Earth.The models and simulations they've built show we are likely to see more extreme weather events,in addition to glacial melt,sea level rise that threatens many low-lying Pacific nations and significant loss of biodiversity once temperatures push past an increase of 1.5 degrees. Though the 1.5 degree target is practically dead,the situation isn't hopeless.Now more than ever,there's reason to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by setting more ambitious goals. However,ambition alone is not enough.We also need action-investing in renewables and technologies like carbon capture and rapidly transforming our energy systems and infrastructure. 1.What did Antonio Guterres try to do in the first paragraph? A.Make a request. B.Issue a warning. C.Provide a solution D.Offer a suggestion. 2.What was the conclusion of the study released in Nature Climate Change? A.The shortest answer is doing. B.Setting a goal is what matters. C.What's done cannot be undone. D.Failing to plan is planning to fail. 3.What's the purpose of the models and simulations the scientists have built? A.To show the consequences of rising temperatures. B.To show the problems with extreme weather events. C.To show the solutions to controlling global warming. D.To show the importance of protecting the environment. 4.How does the author end the passage? A.By sharing confidence and inspiring. B.By expressing concern and criticizing. C.By voicing doubts and making complaints. D.By spreading hope and appealing for action. 59 名师英语专项训练·高考 B 话题：换一个角度看自私 体裁：议论文 词数：356+124 阅读理解 难度：★★★☆☆ 建议用时：8分钟 答案册：P28 If you ask a number of people,"What would happen if everyone in a society behaved in a purely selfish way?"most of them would reply that it would lead to chaos.But many everyday market exchanges rely on self-interest:shopping around for the best deal,waiting for a good price before selling your house,and so forth.Adam Smith,arguably the founder of the discipline of economics,wrote in his famous The Wealth of Nations: Every individual...generally,indeed,neither intends to promote the public interest, nor knows how much he is promoting it...He intends only his own security...only his own gain,and he is in this,as in many other cases,led by an invisible hand to promote an end which was no part of his intention.Nor is it always the worse for the society that it was no part of it.By pursuing his own interest he frequently promotes that of society more e ffectually than when he really intends to promote it. The idea of the "invisible hand"is that in pursuing your own self-interest,you may benefit others.By producing a better product,for example,you're improving the life of the person who uses it.Adam Smith knew perfectly well that the invisible hand is not a magical cure for all the economy or society's problems.But economists view self-interest as a powerful force,which when appropriately directed,can provide broad social benefits. For example,if you wanted to get people to conserve energy,how might you go about it? You might develop a huge public relations campaign and get the word out on TV and in the school curriculum.But an economist is more likely to say,"You want people to use less oil? Tax it;they'll use less.You want firms to develop more fuel-efficient cars?Subsidize() that technology;the firms will then do the research and development that will make it happen."If there's something you want less of,discourage it with a tax;if there's something you want more of,encourage it with a subsidy. 1.What does the author think of self-interest? A.It's foolish and unwise. B.It's natural but immoral. C.It's unusual but acceptable. D.It's common and reasonable. 2.What can we know about "an invisible hand"from Adam Smith's words? A.It can bring positive effects. B.It will lead to terrible results. C.It's a magical cure for all issues. D.It should be avoided at all costs. 3.What does the underlined word "it"refer to in Paragraph 2? A.His security. B.Social benefit. C.His own interest. D.An invisible hand. 4.Which factor does the author stress in influencing people's behaviours in the last paragraph? A.Political systems. B.Cultural traditions. C.Economic policies. D.Social environment. 60 Part2能力提升 C 话题：人生的因果法则 体裁：议论文 词数：257+67 七选五 难度：★★★☆☆ 建议用时：7分钟 答案册：P28 The Law of Cause and Effect is often referred to as the iron law of the universe.It was first explained by Aristotle in 350 BC. At a time when everyone believed that the lives of mortals were just random,Aristotle instead proclaimed()that we live in a universe governed by order.1.Just because we do not know the reason,that does not mean a reason does not exist. The law of cause and effect says that for every effect or result in your life there is a cause or causes.2.Even the most random events can be traced back to specific causes or factors. This law also says that if there is an effect that you desire,such as health,happiness, prosperity,or success,you can achieve that effect by creating the causes that bring them about. 3 If you do what successful,happy people do,over and over,there is nothing that can stop you from eventually getting the same results that they do.However,if you don't do what successful,happy people do,nothing can help you. The world is full of people who are doing what unhappy,unsuccessful,frustrated people do,and then they are amazed that they get the same results.4.It is simply a matter of law. If you eat healthy foods,exercise regularly,and take good care of your body,you will be fit and have high levels of energy.And if you don't,you won't.5.It is obvious.It is simply a matter of cause and effect. A.Nothing happens by chance B.Everyone understands and agrees with this C.He said that everything happens for a reason D.Here's the first rule of the law of cause and effect E.When you change your thinking,you change your life F.This law largely explains everything that happens to you G.But this is not a matter of accident,random chance,or bad luck 2. 3. 5. 61 名师英语专项训练·高考 D语法填空 话题：美满人生的关键 体裁：说明文 词数：243 Passage 1 难度：★★★☆☆ 建议用时：10分钟 答案册：P29 What makes a life happy and meaningful?The simple but surprising answer 1 this question is:relationships.The 2 (strong)our relationships,the more likely we are to live happy,satisfying,and overall healthier lives.In fact,the Harvard Study of Adult Development reveals that the strength of our 3 (connection)with others can predict the health of both our bodies and our brains as we go through life.

Relationships in all 7 (they)forms-friendships,romantic partnerships,families, coworkers,tennis partners,book club members-all contribute to 8 happier,healthier life.And it's never too late to 9 (strength)the relationships you have,and never too late to build new ones. In fact,good relationships are so important that if we had to take all eighty-four years of the Harvard Study and boil it down to a single principle for living,one life investment that 10 (support)by similar findings across a wide variety of other studies,it would be this: Good relationships keep us healthier and happier. 1. 2 3. 4 5. 6. 8 9. 10.
