To do so, I divided the book into two parts. In part one, I describe the philosophical foundations of digital minimalism, starting with an examination of the forces that are making so many people’s digital lives increasingly intolerable, before moving on to a detailed discussion of the digital minimalism philosophy. Part one concludes by introducing my suggested method for adopting this philosophy: the digital declutter. This process requires you to step away from optional online activities for thirty days. At the end of the thirty days you will then add back a small number of carefully chosen online activities that you believe will provide massive benefits to the things you value. In the final chapter of part one, I’ll guide you through carrying out your own digital declutter. In doing so, I’ll draw on an experiment I ran in 2018 in which over 1,600 people agreed to perform a digital declutter. You’ll hear these participants’ stories and learn what strategies worked well for them, and what traps they encountered that you should avoid. The second part of this book takes a closer look at some ideas that will help you cultivate (培养) a sustainable digital minimalism lifestyle. In these chapters, I examine issues such as the importance of solitude (独处) and the necessity of cultivating high-quality leisure to replace the time most now spent on mindless device use. Each chapter concludes with a collection of practices, which are designed to help you act on the big ideas of the chapter. You can view these practices as a toolbox meant to aid your efforts to build a minimalist lifestyle that works for your particular circumstances. 8. What is the book aimed at? A. Teaching critical thinking skills. B. Advocating a simple digital lifestyle. C. Solving philosophical problems. D. Promoting the use of a digital device. 9. What does the underlined word “declutter” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Clear-up. B. Add-on. C. Check-in. D. Take-over. 10. What is presented in the final chapter of part one? A. Theoretical models. B. Statistical methods. C. Practical examples. D. Historical analyses. 11. What does the author suggest readers do with the practices offered in part two? A. Use them as needed. B. Recommend them to friends. C. Evaluate their effects. D. Identify the ideas behind them. 【答案】8. B 9. A 10. C 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了数字极简主义生活方式的优点，倡导简单的数字生活方式。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“The goal of this book is to make the case for digital minimalism, including a detailed exploration of what it asks and why it works, and then to teach you how to adopt this philosophy if you decide it’s right for you.

At the end of the thirty days, you will then add back a small number of carefully chosen online activities that you believe will provide massive benefits to the things you value. (这个过程要求你在30天内远离可选的在线活动。在30天结束的时候，你再加上一些你认为会给你所看重的东西带来巨大好处的精心挑选的在线活动)”可推知，画线词“declutter”的意思是“清理”，对在线活动进行清理和挑选。故选A。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。通过文章第四段“In the final chapter of part one, I’ll guide you through carrying out your own digital declutter. In doing so, I’ll draw on an experiment I ran in 2018 in which over 1,600 people agreed to perform a digital declutter. (在第一部分的最后一章中，我将指导您进行自己的数字清理。在这样做的过程中，我将借鉴我在2018年进行的一项实验，在该实验中，1600多人同意进行数字清理)”可推知，第一部分的最后一章介绍了实验与数字清理的实际例子。故选C。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。通过文章最后一段“You can view these practices as a toolbox meant to aid your efforts to build a minimalist lifestyle that works for your particular circumstances. (你可以将这些实践视为一个工具箱，旨在帮助你建立一种适合自己特定情况的极简主义生活方式)”可推知，作者建议读者根据需要与实际情况使用第二部分中提及的实践。故选A。 【点睛】 D By the end of 2025, space exploration will witness significant milestones, blending government ambition and private innovation. America’s Artemis programme, delayed by technical issues with the Orion spacecraft’s heat shield and life-support systems, aims to send four astronauts on a ten-day lunar fly-by mission in late 2025. They will orbit the Moon in a figure-of-eight path before returning to Earth, though potential delays remain. India’s Gagnayaan human-spaceflight programme may make its mark in 2025, as the country hopes to join the list of nations that have sent astronauts into space using domestically developed rockets. Despite earlier hold-ups, the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) plans to launch astronauts on a mission to spend several days in low-Earth orbit. Unmanned missions will also take centre stage. In May 2025, China’s Tianwen-2 probe will depart for the near-Earth asteroid 469219 Kamo’ oalewa, while the joint European-Japanese BepiColombo probe is set to reach Mercury in December. The European Space Agency (ESA) is preparing the first flight of Space Rider, a reusable robotic spaceplane designed to be launched by rocket and go back to Earth for reuse. Unlike the Space Shuttle, it serves as a robotic space laboratory, focusing on automated scientific missions. Private companies will play a crucial role in 2025’s space activities. SpaceX, already a dominant force, will continue testing its massive Starship rocket and expanding its Starlink satellite constellation (卫星群). The company plans to launch the “direct-to-cell” service, enabling ordinary smartphones to connect directly with Starlink satellites and provide mobile coverage in underserved areas. Tech giant Amazon will advance its Kuiper satellite constellation, while Rocket Lab aims to launch its reusable Neutron rocket, building on the success of its smaller Electron rocket. Several privately funded lunar missions, including robotic landers and rovers, are scheduled to launch on a single SpaceX rocket in January. Notable is the Venus Life Finder (VLF), a $10m joint project by MIT, Rocket Lab, and philanthropists, set to search for life in Venus’ clouds with a simple robotic instrument — highlighting how private efforts now match government budgets in cosmic ambition. 12. What caused the delay in America’s Artemis programme? A. Technical flaws in the spacecraft. B. Budget cuts for lunar missions. C. Astronaut training complications. D. Launch site scheduling conflicts. 13. What makes the ESA’s Space Rider different from the Space Shuttle? A. It is intended for crewed missions. B. It prioritizes reusable technology. C. It functions as a robotic space lab. D. It requires no rocket launch. 14. What is the goal of SpaceX’s Starlink “direct-to-cell” service? A. To provide high-speed internet in remote areas. B. To enable communication in uncovered regions. C. To station additional satellites in low-Earth orbit. D. To compete with Amazon’s Kuiper constellation. 15. Why is the Venus Life Finder (VLF) mission significant? A. It uses advanced telescopes to study Venus. B. It represents the first private Mars exploration. C. It owns a larger budget than government missions. D. It demonstrates private capability in space research. 【答案】12. A 13. C 14. B 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲的是预计到2025年，太空探索领域在政府项目与私人企业创新的共同推动下，将取得一系列重大进展，涵盖载人航天、无人探测以及私营企业的太空活动等多个方面。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“America’s Artemis programme, delayed by technical issues with the Orion spacecraft’s heat shield and life-support systems, aims to send four astronauts on a ten-day lunar fly-by mission in late 2025.(美国的“阿尔忒弥斯”计划因“猎户座”飞船隔热罩和生命维持系统的技术问题而推迟，其目标是在2025年末派遣四名宇航员执行为期十天的绕月飞行任务。)”可知，飞船的技术缺陷导致了美国阿尔忒弥斯计划的推迟。故选A。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Unlike the Space Shuttle, it serves as a robotic space laboratory, focusing on automated scientific missions.(与Space Shuttle不同，它是一台机器人太空实验室，专注于自动化科学任务。)”可知，Space Rider和Space Shuttle之间的不同之处是它是一个机器人空间实验室。故选C。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“The company plans to launch the “direct-to-cell” service, enabling ordinary smartphones to connect directly with Starlink satellites and provide mobile coverage in underserved areas.(该公司计划推出“手机直连卫星”服务，使普通智能手机能够直接与“Starlink”卫星连接，为服务不足的地区提供移动网络覆盖。)”可知，SpaceX公司的Starlink“手机直连卫星”服务的目标是使未覆盖地区能够实现通信。故选B。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Notable is the Venus Life Finder (VLF), a $10m joint project by MIT, Rocket Lab, and philanthropists, set to search for life in Venus’ clouds with a simple robotic instrument — highlighting how private efforts now match government budgets in cosmic ambition.(值得一提的是，Venus Life Finder (VLF)是麻省理工学院、火箭实验室和慈善家共同开展的一个耗资1000万美元的项目，计划使用一个简单的机器人仪器在金星云层中搜寻生命迹象——这凸显了如今私人项目在宇宙探索领域的雄心已可与政府预算相媲美。)”可知，Venus Life Finder (VLF)任务意义重大是因为它展示了私人在太空研究方面的能力。故选D。 第二节(共5小题;每题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下列短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 One of the primary goals of cognitive behavioral therapy (疗法) is finding effective ways to channel your anxiety into productive action.

To do so, I divided the book into two parts. In part one, I describe the philosophical foundations of digital minimalism, starting with an examination of the forces that are making so many people’s digital lives increasingly intolerable, before moving on to a detailed discussion of the digital minimalism philosophy. Part one concludes by introducing my suggested method for adopting this philosophy: the digital declutter. This process requires you to step away from optional online activities for thirty days. At the end of the thirty days, you will then add back a small number of carefully chosen online activities that you believe will provide massive benefits to the things you value. In the final chapter of part one, I’ll guide you through carrying out your own digital declutter. In doing so, I’ll draw on an experiment I ran in 2018 in which over 1,600 people agreed to perform a digital declutter. You’ll hear these participants’ stories and learn what strategies worked well for them, and what traps they encountered that you should avoid. The second part of this book takes a closer look at some ideas that will help you cultivate (培养) a sustainable digital minimalism lifestyle. In these chapters, I examine issues such as the importance of solitude (独处) and the necessity of cultivating high-quality leisure to replace the time most now spent on mindless device use. Each chapter concludes with a collection of practices, which are designed to help you act on the big ideas of the chapter. You can view these practices as a toolbox meant to aid your efforts to build a minimalist lifestyle that works for your particular circumstances. 8. What is the book aimed at? A. Teaching critical thinking skills. B. Advocating a simple digital lifestyle. C. Solving philosophical problems. D. Promoting the use of a digital device. 9.

Statistical methods. C. Practical examples. D. Historical analyses. 11. What does the author suggest readers do with the practices offered in part two? A. Use them as needed. B. Recommend them to friends. C. Evaluate their effects. D. Identify the ideas behind them. D By the end of 2025, space exploration will witness significant milestones, blending government ambition and private innovation. America’s Artemis programme, delayed by technical issues with the Orion spacecraft’s heat shield and life-support systems, aims to send four astronauts on a ten-day lunar fly-by mission in late 2025. They will orbit the Moon in a figure-of-eight path before returning to Earth, though potential delays remain. India’s Gagnayaan human-spaceflight programme may make its mark in 2025, as the country hopes to join the list of nations that have sent astronauts into space using domestically developed rockets. Despite earlier hold-ups, the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) plans to launch astronauts on a mission to spend several days in low-Earth orbit. Unmanned missions will also take centre stage. In May 2025, China’s Tianwen-2 probe will depart for the near-Earth asteroid 469219 Kamo’ oalewa, while the joint European-Japanese BepiColombo probe is set to reach Mercury in December. The European Space Agency (ESA) is preparing the first flight of Space Rider, a reusable robotic spaceplane designed to be launched by rocket and go back to Earth for reuse. Unlike the Space Shuttle, it serves as a robotic space laboratory, focusing on automated scientific missions. Private companies will play a crucial role in 2025’s space activities. SpaceX, already a dominant force, will continue testing its massive Starship rocket and expanding its Starlink satellite constellation (卫星群). The company plans to launch the “direct-to-cell” service, enabling ordinary smartphones to connect directly with Starlink satellites and provide mobile coverage in underserved areas. Tech giant Amazon will advance its Kuiper satellite constellation, while Rocket Lab aims to launch its reusable Neutron rocket, building on the success of its smaller Electron rocket. Several privately funded lunar missions, including robotic landers and rovers, are scheduled to launch on a single SpaceX rocket in January. Notable is the Venus Life Finder (VLF), a $10m joint project by MIT, Rocket Lab, and philanthropists, set to search for life in Venus’ clouds with a simple robotic instrument — highlighting how private efforts now match government budgets in cosmic ambition. 12. What caused the delay in America’s Artemis programme? A Technical flaws in the spacecraft. B. Budget cuts for lunar missions. C. Astronaut training complications. D. Launch site scheduling conflicts. 13. What makes the ESA’s Space Rider different from the Space Shuttle? A. It is intended for crewed missions. B. It prioritizes reusable technology. C. It functions as a robotic space lab. D. It requires no rocket launch. 14. What is the goal of SpaceX’s Starlink “direct-to-cell” service? A. To provide high-speed internet in remote areas. B To enable communication in uncovered regions. C To station additional satellites in low-Earth orbit. D. To compete with Amazon’s Kuiper constellation. 15. Why is the Venus Life Finder (VLF) mission significant? A. It uses advanced telescopes to study Venus. B. It represents the first private Mars exploration. C. It owns a larger budget than government missions. D. It demonstrates private capability in space research. 第二节(共5小题;每题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下列短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 One of the primary goals of cognitive behavioral therapy (疗法) is finding effective ways to channel your anxiety into productive action.
