To Karanth, everyone in every part of the world is born with a fundamental connection to nature. Growing up in Karnataka, she began accompanying her father into the wild at just two years old. But in her hometown, kids grew up with a negative perspective on wildlife. Elephants destroyed crops and sometimes people were badly injured or killed. Karanth discovered kids wouldn’t appreciate the fact that it’s the best place to witness extraordinary animals.
In 2017, a conversation with her friend Gabby shifted her mindset towards education. Within half a year, Karanth and Gabby had the first version of “Wild Shaale” on their hands. A program designed for students who come into frequent contact with wildlife, Wild Shaale aims to develop a genuine understanding of wildlife and wild spaces and move beyond wildlife tolerance to concepts of conservation and environmental issues. The conservation education program fills a gap in environmental learning.
While it is fortunate that a basic environmental education is supported by local government, Karanth believes the challenge lies in the quality of the curriculum and whether it’s delivered effectively and consistently. “You have to visualize what these schools look like. They may not have electricity — forget having computers, internet, iPads, or anything.”
Encouraging the students to find commonalities between themselves and the animals is the first step to changing perceptions and hopefully, behaviors. “It comes down to the same things: we need food; we need water; we need space. Then they start to understand why situations of conflict arise,” Karanth says. “But then how do you convince them not to get angry, not to act in a way that leads to harm? That’s something we’re trying to work on. It’s not easy.”
14. What problem might Karanth’s hometown have faced?
A. Human-wildlife conflict. B. Loss of wildlife habitats.
C. Overpopulation of elephants. D. Disregard for wildlife balance.
15. Why did Karanth launch the program Wild Shaale?
A. To help students identify animals. B. To fill a gap in local education.
C. To change how students perceive wildlife. D. To publicize wildlife diversity.
16. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about?
A. The support to the plan. B. The barrier to the program.
C. The curriculum arrangement. D. The schools’conditions.
17. What is Karanth trying to achieve in the program?
A. A shift in humans’ attitudes and behavior. B. A breakthrough in environmental studies.
C. Appropriate ways to end local conflicts. D. Approaches to changing animals’ behavior.
C
The moon stands alone. Unique in the universe, it is a lifeless and sunbaked wasteland that harbours little except what we bring to it. But that is about to change.
Half a century after the Apollo programme, a private spacecraft Nova-C made the first touchdown on the moon successfully, bearing scientific instruments, microfiche (微缩胶片) story disks, cameras, and sculptures to stay on the moon forever. Its success would promise many more. Though it may seem like an exciting outlook for humanity’s space exploration ambitions, it also signals a future where the moon becomes a hotbed of ungoverned business operations that will irreversibly (不可逆地) transform it.
For the first time, private capital has reached the moon, expanding beyond scientific goals. This allows private landers, even when carrying government science experiments, to include additional non-scientific payloads (有酬负载) for other customers. Items bound to raise various objections, such as human cremains (骨灰) and dehydrated water bears from past missions, have caused concerns about biological materials on the moon. There’re a lot more planned for future launches, likely sparking further debate.
Before this decade is out, with a powerful enough telescope, you may be able to see evidence of human construction or even habitation on the moon. In 2023, the global space industry was valued at $469 billion, expected to exceed $1 trillion by 2030, driven by growing satellite use in manufacturing, power, and data. “We are now at a tipping point, where ideas previously limited to science fiction represent attractive investment projects,” a report read.
A voluntary agreement has been used since 2020 to foster lunar cooperation. It promotes international standards, emergency assistance and data sharing. However, it also allows for exploiting (开采) lunar resources like dust, water, rare earth elements and other materials.
Exploring the moon has value for science and potential benefits for Earth, but humans often turn exploration into exploitation, and the moon may face the same fate. The moon won’t be alone for long. But it is and will forever be quiet. It plays host to no thunderstorms, no crashing waves, no bird songs and no anthems (国歌). We must be its voice. We will soon change its surface, and our relationship to it, forever. At the very least, we owe the moon a considered discussion of why and how we will do so.
18. What is the author’s concern about the moon’s future?
A. Unregulated commercial activities. B. Illegal human construction.
C. Limited payload carried to the moon. D. A lack of scientific missions.
19. The “tipping point” in Paragraph 4 indicates the change .
A. from cooperation to competition B. from science to trade
C. from lunar landing to settlement D. from fantasy to adventure
20. What can we infer from this passage?
A. Lunar resource exploration holds great promise.
B. Massive investment is beneficial to lunar development.
C. Non-scientific activities can test lunar environmental limits.
D. The existing agreement is insufficient in controlling over-exploitation.
21. What would be the best title for this passage?
A. The Promising Moon: Playground for All
B. The Moon’s Edge: Ambition Meets Reality
C. The Moon’s Future: Uncover the Unknown
D. The Silent Moon: Humanity’s Responsibility
D
Is it true that our brain alone is responsible for human cognition (认知)? What about our body? Is it possible for thought and behaviour to originate from somewhere other than our brain? Psychologists who study Embodied Cognition (EC) ask similar questions. The EC theory suggests our body is also responsible for thinking or problem-solving. More precisely, the mind shapes the body and the body shapes the mind in equal measure.
If you think about it for a moment it makes total sense. When you smell something good or hear amusing sounds, certain emotions are awakened. Think about how newborns use their senses to understand the world around them. They don’t have emotions so much as needs—they don’t feel sad, they’re just hungry and need food. Even unborn babies can feel their mothers’ heartbeats and this has a calming effect. In the real world, they cry when they’re cold and then get hugged. That way, they start to associate being warm with being loved.
Understandably, theorists have been arguing for years and still disagree on whether the brain is the nerve centre that operates the rest of the body. Older Western philosophers and mainstream language researchers believe this is fact, while EC theorises that the brain and body are working together as an organic supercomputer, processing everything and forming your reactions.
Further studies have backed up the mind-body interaction. In one experiment, test subjects were asked to judge people after being handed a hot or a cold drink. They all made warm evaluations when their fingertips perceived warmth rather than coolness. And it works the other way too. In another study. subjects’ fingertip temperatures were measured after being “included” in or “rejected” from a group task. Those who were included felt physically warmer.
For further proof, we can look at the metaphors (比喻) that we use without even thinking. A kind and sympathetic person is frequently referred to as one with a soft heart and someone who is very strong and calm in difficult situations is often described as solid as a rock. And this kind of metaphorical use is common across languages.
Now that you have the knowledge of mind-body interaction, why not use it? If you’re having a bad day, a warm cup of tea will give you a flash of pleasure. If you know you’re physically cold, warm up before making any interpersonal decisions.
22. According to the author, what is the significance of EC?
A. It brings us closer to the truth in human cognition.
B. It offers a clearer picture of the shape of human brain.
C. It reveals the major role of the mind in human cognition.
D. It facilitates our understanding of the origin of psychology.
23. Where does the newborns’ understanding of their surroundings start from?
A. Their personal looks. B. Their mental needs.
C. Their inner emotions. D. Their physical feelings.
24. What does the author intend to prove by citing the metaphors in Paragraph 5?
A. Human speech is alive with metaphors.
B. Human senses have effects on thinking.
C. Human language is shaped by visual images.
D. Human emotions are often compared to natural materials.
25. What is the author’s purpose in writing the last paragraph?
A. To deepen the readers’ understanding of EC.
B. To encourage the reader to put EC into practice.
C. To guide the reader onto the path to career success.
D. To share with the reader ways to release their emotions.

Achieving Success in Journalistic News Writing
No book, article or blog post can turn an ambitious writer into a successful journalist. All that it can do is to help the writer learn to write. The primary skill in learning to write is practice. ____26____
Among the most convenient subjects are the events and news in the world around us. Such topics are what skilled journalists write about, and that is why we call this form of writing “journalistic writing”.
Journalistic writing is not a special literary gymnastics that requires a special talent and an expansive vocabulary. ____27____It is using language to tell what is going on in the world. As such, it requires no special talent beyond seeing and understanding what is taking place around us, to grasp its significance and relation to other events, and to tell others what we have seen and heard.
____28____One of the chief characteristics is timeliness and relevance. It has little time to talk about the past, except in comparison with the present. It has little time to foretell the future, except in pointing out the significance of the present. Its subject is today. It is primarily concerned with facts. The writer considers himself a recorder of the things other persons are doing and thinking.
Another basic part of journalistic writing is that the writer prepares it for a definite purpose. Some writers, like novelists, write to use beautiful words and sentences. ____29____However, the writer who favors a journalistic style uses English simply to tell what he has seen and heard; he realizes that his reader cares more for the things he tells than for the way in which he tells and expresses them.
Success in journalistic writing demands two important skills. One is the inborn skill to see and understand. The other is the skill to tell what the writer has seen in a way that makes the reader see the same thing. ____30____If the writer is eager to excel, he must expand his knowledge and education so he can better understand and evaluate the things he sees and hears.
A. It will not do them any good to write news items.
B. To these imaginative literary writers, they favor expression.
C. To practice writing, one must have something to write about.
D. An ambitious writer can develop both skills if he lacks them.
E. The writer must write it now or never―without giving up quality.
F. Journalistic writing differs mainly in its subject matter and purpose.
G. Instead, it is the plainest, most reserved form of English composition.

Children were enthusiastically preparing for their approaching concert. As I glanced up from my teacher’s desk, Patty stood waiting to present her urgent ____31____ .

To Karanth, everyone in every part of the world is born with a fundamental connection to nature. Growing up in Karnataka, she began accompanying her father into the wild at just two years old. But in her hometown, kids grew up with a negative perspective on wildlife. Elephants destroyed crops and sometimes people were badly injured or killed. Karanth discovered kids wouldn’t appreciate the fact that it’s the best place to witness extraordinary animals.
In 2017, a conversation with her friend Gabby shifted her mindset towards education. Within half a year, Karanth and Gabby had the first version of “Wild Shaale” on their hands. A program designed for students who come into frequent contact with wildlife, Wild Shaale aims to develop a genuine understanding of wildlife and wild spaces and move beyond wildlife tolerance to concepts of conservation and environmental issues. The conservation education program fills a gap in environmental learning.
While it is fortunate that a basic environmental education is supported by local government, Karanth believes the challenge lies in the quality of the curriculum and whether it’s delivered effectively and consistently. “You have to visualize what these schools look like. They may not have electricity — forget having computers, internet, iPads, or anything.”
Encouraging the students to find commonalities between themselves and the animals is the first step to changing perceptions and hopefully, behaviors. “It comes down to the same things: we need food; we need water; we need space. Then they start to understand why situations of conflict arise,” Karanth says. “But then how do you convince them not to get angry, not to act in a way that leads to harm? That’s something we’re trying to work on. It’s not easy.”
14. What problem might Karanth’s hometown have faced?
A. Human-wildlife conflict. B. Loss of wildlife habitats.
C. Overpopulation of elephants. D. Disregard for wildlife balance.
15. Why did Karanth launch the program Wild Shaale?
A. To help students identify animals. B. To fill a gap in local education.
C. To change how students perceive wildlife. D. To publicize wildlife diversity.
16. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about?
A. The support to the plan. B. The barrier to the program.
C. The curriculum arrangement. D. The schools’conditions.
17. What is Karanth trying to achieve in the program?
A. A shift in humans’ attitudes and behavior. B. A breakthrough in environmental studies.
C. Appropriate ways to end local conflicts. D. Approaches to changing animals’ behavior.
【答案】14. A 15. C 16. B 17. A
【解析】

Karanth discovered kids wouldn’t appreciate the fact that it’s the best place to witness extraordinary animals.(但在她的家乡,孩子们从小就对野生动物持消极态度。大象毁坏了庄稼,有时人们严重受伤或死亡。卡兰斯发现,孩子们不会欣赏这样一个事实:这里是观看非凡动物的最佳地点)”可知,卡兰斯的家乡面临问题是人类与野生动物的冲突。故选A。
【15题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“A program designed for students who come into frequent contact with wildlife, Wild Shaale aims to develop a genuine understanding of wildlife and wild spaces and move beyond wildlife tolerance to concepts of conservation and environmental issues. The conservation education program fills a gap in environmental learning.(该项目专为经常接触野生动物的学生设计,旨在培养对野生动物和野生空间的真正理解,并超越野生动物的耐受性,了解保护和环境问题的概念。保育教育计划填补了环境学习的空白)”可知,Karanth启动Wild Shaale项目是为了改变学生对野生动物的看法。故选C。
【16题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段“While it is fortunate that a basic environmental education is supported by local government, Karanth believes the challenge lies in the quality of the curriculum and whether it’s delivered effectively and consistently. “You have to visualize what these schools look like. They may not have electricity — forget having computers, internet, iPads, or anything.”(虽然幸运的是,基础环境教育得到了当地政府的支持,但Karanth认为,挑战在于课程的质量,以及课程是否有效和持续。“你必须想象这些学校是什么样子。他们可能没有电——更别提有电脑、互联网、ipad或任何东西了。”)”可知,第三段主要讲了项目的障碍。故选B。
【17题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“Encouraging the students to find commonalities between themselves and the animals is the first step to changing perceptions and hopefully, behaviors.(鼓励学生发现自己和动物之间的共同点是改变观念和行为的第一步)”可知,卡兰斯想在这个项目中实现人类态度和行为的转变。故选A。
C
The moon stands alone. Unique in the universe, it is a lifeless and sunbaked wasteland that harbours little except what we bring to it. But that is about to change.
Half a century after the Apollo programme, a private spacecraft Nova-C made the first touchdown on the moon successfully, bearing scientific instruments, microfiche (微缩胶片) story disks, cameras, and sculptures to stay on the moon forever. Its success would promise many more. Though it may seem like an exciting outlook for humanity’s space exploration ambitions, it also signals a future where the moon becomes a hotbed of ungoverned business operations that will irreversibly (不可逆地) transform it.
For the first time, private capital has reached the moon, expanding beyond scientific goals. This allows private landers, even when carrying government science experiments, to include additional non-scientific payloads (有酬负载) for other customers. Items bound to raise various objections, such as human cremains (骨灰) and dehydrated water bears from past missions, have caused concerns about biological materials on the moon. There’re a lot more planned for future launches, likely sparking further debate.
Before this decade is out, with a powerful enough telescope, you may be able to see evidence of human construction or even habitation on the moon. In 2023, the global space industry was valued at $469 billion, expected to exceed $1 trillion by 2030, driven by growing satellite use in manufacturing, power, and data. “We are now at a tipping point, where ideas previously limited to science fiction represent attractive investment projects,” a report read.
A voluntary agreement has been used since 2020 to foster lunar cooperation. It promotes international standards, emergency assistance and data sharing. However, it also allows for exploiting (开采) lunar resources like dust, water, rare earth elements and other materials.
Exploring the moon has value for science and potential benefits for Earth, but humans often turn exploration into exploitation, and the moon may face the same fate. The moon won’t be alone for long. But it is and will forever be quiet. It plays host to no thunderstorms, no crashing waves, no bird songs and no anthems (国歌). We must be its voice. We will soon change its surface, and our relationship to it, forever. At the very least, we owe the moon a considered discussion of why and how we will do so.
18. What is the author’s concern about the moon’s future?
A. Unregulated commercial activities. B. Illegal human construction.
C. Limited payload carried to the moon. D. A lack of scientific missions.
19. The “tipping point” in Paragraph 4 indicates the change .
A. from cooperation to competition B. from science to trade
C. from lunar landing to settlement D. from fantasy to adventure
20. What can we infer from this passage?
A. Lunar resource exploration holds great promise.
B. Massive investment is beneficial to lunar development.
C. Non-scientific activities can test lunar environmental limits.
D. The existing agreement is insufficient in controlling over-exploitation.
21. What would be the best title for this passage?
A The Promising Moon: Playground for All
B. The Moon’s Edge: Ambition Meets Reality
C. The Moon’s Future: Uncover the Unknown
D. The Silent Moon: Humanity’s Responsibility
【答案】18. A 19. B 20. D 21. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了私人资本进入月球,商业活动兴起,作者担忧月球面临过度开发,强调人类对月球负有责任。
【18题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Though it may seem like an exciting outlook for humanity’s space exploration ambitions, it also signals a future where the moon becomes a hotbed of ungoverned business operations that will irreversibly (不可逆地) transform it.(尽管这似乎是人类太空探索野心的一个令人兴奋的前景,但它也预示着未来月球将成为不受控制的商业活动的温床,这将不可逆转地改变它)”可知,作者担心的是月球未来会成为不受监管的商业活动的温床,即未受规范的商业活动。故选A。
【19题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段“For the first time, private capital has reached the moon, expanding beyond scientific goals. This allows private landers, even when carrying government science experiments, to include additional non-scientific payloads (有酬负载) for other customers.(私人资本首次登上月球,超越了科学目标。这使得私人着陆器,即使在携带政府科学实验时,也可以为其他客户提供额外的非科学有酬负载)”以及第四段“‘We are now at a tipping point, where ideas previously limited to science fiction represent attractive investment projects,’ a report read.(我们现在正处于一个转折点,以前仅限于科幻小说的想法代表了有吸引力的投资项目)”可知,私人资本进入月球,商业活动兴起,以前科幻小说里的想法现在成为了有吸引力的投资项目,因此tipping point指的是从科学到贸易的转变。故选B。
【20题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段“A voluntary agreement has been used since 2020 to foster lunar cooperation. It promotes international standards, emergency assistance and data sharing. However, it also allows for exploiting (开采) lunar resources like dust, water, rare earth elements and other materials.(自2020年以来,一项自愿协议一直被用来促进月球合作。它促进了国际标准、紧急援助和数据共享。然而,它也允许开采月球资源,如灰尘、水、稀土元素和其他材料)”可知,现有的协议虽然促进合作等,但也允许开采月球资源,可推知它在控制过度开采方面是不足的。故选D。
【21题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“The moon stands alone. Unique in the universe, it is a lifeless and sunbaked wasteland that harbours little except what we bring to it.(月亮孤零零地待着。它是宇宙中独一无二的,是一片没有生命、被阳光晒得黝黑的荒地,除了我们带给它的东西外,几乎什么都没有)”、最后一段“The moon won’t be alone for long. But it is and will forever be quiet. It plays host to no thunderstorms, no crashing waves, no bird songs and no anthems (国歌). We must be its voice. We will soon change its surface, and our relationship to it, forever. At the very least, we owe the moon a considered discussion of why and how we will do so.(月亮不会孤单太久。但它现在是,也将永远是安静的。它没有雷雨,没有巨浪,没有鸟鸣,没有国歌。我们必须成为它的声音。我们很快就会永远改变它的表面,以及我们与它的关系。至少,我们欠月球一个深思熟虑的讨论,为什么以及如何这样做)”以及文章内容可知,文章主要介绍了随着私人资本进入月球,商业活动兴起,作者担心月球面临过度开发等问题,强调人类要对月球负责。D项“寂静的月球:人类的责任” 符合主旨,适合作为文章标题。故选D。
D
Is it true that our brain alone is responsible for human cognition (认知)? What about our body? Is it possible for thought and behaviour to originate from somewhere other than our brain? Psychologists who study Embodied Cognition (EC) ask similar questions. The EC theory suggests our body is also responsible for thinking or problem-solving. More precisely, the mind shapes the body and the body shapes the mind in equal measure.
If you think about it for a moment, it makes total sense. When you smell something good or hear amusing sounds, certain emotions are awakened. Think about how newborns use their senses to understand the world around them. They don’t have emotions so much as needs—they don’t feel sad, they’re just hungry and need food. Even unborn babies can feel their mothers’ heartbeats and this has a calming effect. In the real world, they cry when they’re cold and then get hugged. That way, they start to associate being warm with being loved.
Understandably, theorists have been arguing for years and still disagree on whether the brain is the nerve centre that operates the rest of the body. Older Western philosophers and mainstream language researchers believe this is fact, while EC theorises that the brain and body are working together as an organic supercomputer, processing everything and forming your reactions.
Further studies have backed up the mind-body interaction. In one experiment, test subjects were asked to judge people after being handed a hot or a cold drink. They all made warm evaluations when their fingertips perceived warmth rather than coolness. And it works the other way too. In another study. subjects’ fingertip temperatures were measured after being “included” in or “rejected” from a group task. Those who were included felt physically warmer.
For further proof, we can look at the metaphors (比喻) that we use without even thinking. A kind and sympathetic person is frequently referred to as one with a soft heart and someone who is very strong and calm in difficult situations is often described as solid as a rock. And this kind of metaphorical use is common across languages.
Now that you have the knowledge of mind-body interaction, why not use it? If you’re having a bad day, a warm cup of tea will give you a flash of pleasure. If you know you’re physically cold, warm up before making any interpersonal decisions.
22. According to the author, what is the significance of EC?
A. It brings us closer to the truth in human cognition.
B. It offers a clearer picture of the shape of human brain.
C. It reveals the major role of the mind in human cognition.
D It facilitates our understanding of the origin of psychology.
23. Where does the newborns’ understanding of their surroundings start from?
A. Their personal looks. B. Their mental needs.
C. Their inner emotions. D. Their physical feelings.
24. What does the author intend to prove by citing the metaphors in Paragraph 5?
A. Human speech is alive with metaphors.
B. Human senses have effects on thinking.
C. Human language is shaped by visual images.
D. Human emotions are often compared to natural materials.
25. What is the author’s purpose in writing the last paragraph?
A. To deepen the readers’ understanding of EC.
B. To encourage the reader to put EC into practice.
C. To guide the reader onto the path to career success.
D. To share with the reader ways to release their emotions.
【答案】22. A 23. D 24. B 25. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了心理学家的一项“EC”理论表明,我们不是只有大脑负责人类的认知,我们的身体也负责思考或者解决问题。更准确地说思想塑造身体,身体同等程度地塑造思想。
【22题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段“The EC theory suggests our body is also responsible for thinking or problem-solving. (EC理论认为我们的身体也负责思考或解决问题。)”可推知,“EC”理论让我们更接近人类认知的真相。故选A。
【23题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第二段“Think about how newborns use their senses to understand the world around them. They don’t have emotions so much as needs—they don’t feel sad, they’re just hungry and need food. (想想新生儿如何用他们的感官来理解周围的世界。他们没有情感,更多的是需要——他们不感到悲伤,他们只是饿了,需要食物。)”可推知,新生儿对周围环境的理解依靠的是身体感觉。故选D。
【24题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段“For further proof, we can look at the metaphors (比喻) that we use without even thinking. (为了进一步证明,我们可以看看我们不假思索就使用的隐喻。)”和第四段“Further studies have backed up the mind-body interaction. (进一步的研究支持了身心相互作用。)”可知,两个自然段都是为了证明上文第三段“EC”的观点“Older Western philosophers and mainstream language researchers believe this is fact, while EC theorises that the brain and body are working together as an organic supercomputer, processing everything and forming your reactions. (年长的西方哲学家和主流语言研究人员认为这是事实,而“EC”理论认为大脑和身体作为一台有机的超级计算机协同工作,处理一切并形成反应。)”所以,作者想要印证的是人类的感官对思维有影响。故选B。
【25题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段第一句话“Now that you have the knowledge of mind-body interaction, why not use it? (既然你已经有了身心互动的知识,为什么不使用它呢?)”以及下文中列举的两种现实生活中的情况“If you’re having a bad day, a warm cup of tea will give you a flash of pleasure. If you know you’re physically cold, warm up before making any interpersonal decisions. (如果你度过了糟糕的一天,一杯热茶会给你带来一丝快乐。如果你知道自己身体很冷,在做任何人际决定之前先热身。)”可推知,最后一段作者的目的是鼓励读者把“EC”理论运用于现实生活中。故选B。

Achieving Success in Journalistic News Writing
No book, article or blog post can turn an ambitious writer into a successful journalist. All that it can do is to help the writer learn to write. The primary skill in learning to write is practice. ____26____
Among the most convenient subjects are the events and news in the world around us. Such topics are what skilled journalists write about and that is why we call this form of writing “journalistic writing”.
Journalistic writing is not a special literary gymnastics that requires a special talent and an expansive vocabulary. ____27____It is using language to tell what is going on in the world. As such, it requires no special talent beyond seeing and understanding what is taking place around us, to grasp its significance and relation to other events, and to tell others what we have seen and heard.
____28____One of the chief characteristics is timeliness and relevance. It has little time to talk about the past, except in comparison with the present. It has little time to foretell the future, except in pointing out the significance of the present. Its subject is today. It is primarily concerned with facts. The writer considers himself a recorder of the things other persons are doing and thinking.

B. To these imaginative literary writers, they favor expression.
