Of course, there are exceptions for off-campus living, such as married students, parents, daily commuters, or those who meet specific age or status requirements. Franklin & Marshall College As one of America’s oldest colleges, it places first-year students in three college houses: Ware, Bonchek, and Brooks. Each house has a resident director and teacher advisor living on-site to actively support students’ academic progress and personal growth. Student leaders organize regular social activities like pizza nights, study groups, and chats with graduates. Upperclassmen get housing through a draw system, choosing from apartments, wellness-themed dorms, or group housing options. Ohio Wesleyan University It has five residence halls (mostly mixed-gender) equipped with study rooms, shared kitchens, and laundry facilities. Students can join themed communities within residence halls, such as gaming, food lovers, or adventure. Freshmen are assigned roommates randomly, while upperclassmen can pick on-campus houses, apartments, or the newly built Bradford Milligan Hall specially for seniors. Susquehanna University All on-campus students must have meal plans, except upperclassmen living in certain townhouses. First-years stay in five main dorms; returning students can choose themed housing, standard dorms, or suite-style rooms. A beloved long-held tradition: seniors hike Mahanoy Mountain with the college president before graduation, a custom dating back to the 1800s. Vanderbilt University In Nashville, it has 31 residence halls and 18 dining spots across campus. First-years live in 10 houses with teacher advisors living on-site, enjoying activities like game nights and group discussions. The annual Commons Cup lets freshmen compete in studies, sports, and campus involvement. Upperclassmen may live off-campus if housing is full or they meet exception criteria. 1. What do Franklin & Marshall College and Ohio Wesleyan University have in common? A. Both offer themed housing options. B. All their dorms are for single-gender. C. Social activities are organized for seniors. D Neither has teacher advisors living on campus. 2. Which university holds an annual competition for first-year students? A. Franklin & Marshall College. B. Ohio Wesleyan University. C. Susquehanna University. D. Vanderbilt University. 3. Who is the text most probably intended for? A. Dorm managers. B. Professors seeking housing. C. College applicants. D. Graduates for further study. They said it couldn’t be done. They said he was crazy. They said he would never make it. But Duane Hansen and his beautiful pumpkin, which he named Berta, proved them all wrong. Like Cinderella’s fairy godmother, this Nebraska man proved that you really can turn a pumpkin into a functional vehicle — in this case, a seaworthy vessel(船). Yes, you read that right. Hansen wanted to celebrate his 60th birthday by hollowing out his prized 846-pound pumpkin and sailing down the Missouri River inside it. Not only did Hansen enjoy a pumpkin sail on his special day, but his 38-mile journey also landed him a world record! In case you wondered, the previous world record for the longest sail in a pumpkin was 25 miles, set by a North Dakota man in 2018. It wasn’t an easy journey. Growing a pumpkin big enough to use as a boat is already a challenge. Then, there was his chosen waterway. The city of Bellevue, Nebraska, posted a photogragh of Hansen on the water that offers a reminder of just how big the Missouri River is. “He has always said that you can do anything you want and I’m just so proud,” Hansen’s daughter Morgan Buchholz said. Hansen reportedly spent nearly a decade trying to grow a pumpkin big enough to work as a sailing vessel. He was inspired to begin his mission after meeting a woman who had previously won “the Biggest Pumpkin Competition”. He asked her many questions about her experience. As for his pumpkin-sailing future, “I’m done with this.” Hansen said that the voyage made his knees ache. The wake (尾流) from boats was rough, and when they passed, he said he had to stop everything and just hang on. “If somebody breaks this record, I will, like, bow down to them because they are tough,” he said. 4. Why did Hansen go on a pumpkin journey? A. To observe his birthday. B. To show his prized pumpkin. C. To break a world record. D. To prove pumpkin could be a vessel. 5. What did Hansen do to make his journey possible? A. He chose a calm waterway. B. He talked with the previous record holder. C. He convinced his family to support his plan. D. He worked a long time to grow the pumpkin. 6. What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. His knees got seriously injured in the sailing. B. His vessel turned over in the wake from boats. C. Hansen will respect whoever breaks his record. D. Hansen will continue the pumpkin-sailing in future. 7. What does Hansen’s story tell us? A. It is never too old to learn. B. Time and tide wait for no man. C. Where there’s a will, there’s a way. D. Fear always springs from ignorance In the breathtaking natural setting of the Cairngorms National Park in the Scottish Highlands, local people’s outdoor activities are changing. An outdoor dementia (痴呆) center is taking shape. It is already enabling the locals affected with various forms of memory loss, their carers and families, to admire nature once again. This project is shaking up the indoor lifestyles that typically become the reality of so many people with dementia, and is instead making the great outdoors reachable for them. It also frees them from their social isolation. “People and their carers tend to come for specific events like walking, bird-watching, gardening,” says Bruce, Communications and Campaigns Lead. So far, many have expressed how reconnecting with and caring for these wild places uplifts them, especially after dementia cut them off from the obvious wellness benefits of being outdoors. Some have described their days with specific words like “calming”, “brilliant”, and “magical”. Actually, before this project, there was a smaller program called “The Tipi Project”. It got people with dementia and their carers out and about and socializing in the park doing things like woodland walks, wildlife surveys and woodcarving. Carers who attended the activities reported that their loved ones became more relaxed and cheerful after the outdoor sessions. Then the new outdoor dementia center appeared as a natural progression. Gillian Councill, Localities Lead at Alzheimer Scotland, noticed how in the outdoors, the anxiety and stress associated with dementia disappeared. “You know that feeling of trying to remember something or trying to achieve something? Nature has got a special way of taking that feeling away,” she says. “I want this project to be within the reach of people with dementia, so they can get out into nature as they once loved to do.” 8. How does the dementia center positively influence the sufferers? A. By changing indoor design styles. B. By strengthening training for carers. C. By organizing outdoor activities. D. By offering specialized medical treatments. 9. What is the participants’ attitude towards the new project? A. Doubtful. B. Shocked. C. Supportive. D. Uncertain. 10. Why does the author mention “The Tipi Project” in paragraph 4? A. To provide a background. B. To introduce a novel program. C. To highlight a competing project. D. To advertise an outdoor center. 11. What do Gillian Councill’s words show? A. Her focus on bringing back old traditions. B. Her recognition of nature’s calming effect. C. Her methods of dealing with mental stress. D. Her aim for upgrading dementia care practices. You’re Probably Not As Awful As You Think encourages you to believe exactly what the title says — that no matter what’s going on, you’re actually doing better than you think. In today’s world, it’s easy to compare yourselves with others and think that you aren’t really doing as much as you should be, could be, need to be. Take a step back and you’ll realize your inner critic doesn’t give you a true perspective on the situation. The book, written by J. P. Fiddlebrook, is well-organized and highly accessible with a mix of humor, practical wisdom, and relatable stories. It contains sixteen chapters that touch on a variety of elements of self-confidence. It starts out with looking at the past — the baggage that we carry with us that affects our perceptions. Then it moves on to the right now — how social media and self-talk influence us. The highlights are focused on the future — the things we can do to help shake ourselves out of the cycle of negative thoughts and reframe patterns. Mindfulness and gratitude are obviously part of it. The techniques and methods for dealing with inner emotions discussed in this part are vital, such as, how to quiet your inner critic’s loudspeaker, why chasing perfection is like running on a treadmill while eating cake and how to overcome the social media comparison trap. At the end is a chapter devoted to asking for help — something very hard for a lot of people, but something extremely important to make a positive community that lifts everyone up. This book offers a refreshing escape from the cycle of self-criticism. The self-help guide encourages you to embrace your imperfections and find joy in the little things. After reading, you realize that you actually are OK, and to get resources for further improvement, not the kind of book that you want to get really heavy and overwhelming. With brief sections, it’s perfect for reading a little bit, and then reflecting and working to make adjustments to your mindsets and habits, to remind yourself that you’re really not that bad after all. 12. What is a feature of the book according to the text? A. It is filled with moving stories. B. It provides well-tested strategies. C. It adopts an easy-to-understand writing style. D. It is intended for people with mental problems. 13. What does the underlined word “baggage” in paragraph 2 refer to? A. Benefit. B. Responsibility. C. Duty. D. Load. 14. What does the future-focused section discuss? A. Social media’s impact. B. Overcoming negativity. C. Inner critic management. D. Avoiding perfection traps. 15. What is the book aimed at? A. Advocating a healthy lifestyle. B. Teaching critical thinking skills. C. Boosting one’s self-worth in life. D. Promoting the cycle of self-criticism. 第二节(共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 The 80/20 rule is the principle that 20% of what you do results in 80% of your outcomes. ___16___ Because so much of your output is determined by a relatively small amount of what you do each day, focusing on the most productive tasks will result in greater output. You can’t use the 80/20 rule to your advantage unless you know what it is you want to focus on. How do you cut out all the background noise and zero in on that 20% that’s going to make an extraordinary difference in your life? ___17___ Your purpose is the foundation of everything in your life or in your business. ___18___ It’s that important. Your purpose could be something like having more time with your family, the freedom to live life on your terms, or the money to travel the world. In business, your purpose is your company vision. It’s the reason you started the business in the first place. ___19___ Write down five things you could start doing today to help you get to live your purpose. Then prioritize them by how fast they will get you to your goal. The top item — the most meaningful — is your first priority. You’re not done yet. Priorities are nice, but they’re not enough to get you over the finish line. You need to create SMART goals: steps you can take that are specific, measurable, Achievable, Realistic and set within a Time Frame. ___20___ These specific action items are the real 20% of the 80/20 rule — the things you’ll spend 20% of your time doing that will generate the best results. A. Now it’s time to get more specific. B. It explains why focusing on key tasks matters. C. Rank your purposes by the level of importance. D. You can apply the principle to your personal goals. E. Then you need to hold yourself accountable for them. F. Follow this equation: Purpose + Priority = Productivity. G. If you don’t know your purpose, you can’t create goals or take action. 第三部分 语言运用(共三节，满分45分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Ever since he was a kid, Arjun loved reading stories.

College applicants. D. Graduates for further study. 【答案】1. A 2. D 3. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇应用文。文章介绍四所实行四年校内住宿政策的大学，说明政策例外情况，还分别阐述各校新生与高年级学生的住宿安排、配套及特色活动等信息。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据Franklin & Marshall College中“Upperclassmen get housing through a draw system, choosing from apartments, wellness-themed dorms, or group housing options.(高年级学生通过抽签制度获得住房，从公寓、健康主题宿舍或团体住房中进行选择。)”说明该校为高年级学生提供主题宿舍选择。以及Ohio Wesleyan University中“Students can join themed communities within residence halls, such as gaming, food lovers, or adventure.(学生可以加入宿舍内的主题社区，如游戏、美食爱好者或冒险。)”表明该校学生可以在宿舍内加入主题社区，也就意味着提供主题住宿选择。所以两所学校都提供主题住宿选择。故选A项。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据Vanderbilt University中“The annual Commons Cup lets freshmen compete in studies, sports, and campus involvement.( 一年一度的Commons Cup让新生在学习、体育和校园参与方面进行竞争。)”可知，这里明确指出每年的 Commons Cup 让大一新生在学习、体育和校园参与方面进行竞争，所以是 Vanderbilt University 为大一学生举办年度比赛。故选D项。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章大意以及标题“4 Colleges With Four-Year On-Campus-Living Policies(4 所实行四年制在校住宿政策的大学)”可知，文章主要介绍了4 所大学的在校住宿政策，包括新生住宿安排、高年级学生住宿选择以及学校围绕住宿开展的一些活动等。这些信息对于正在申请大学的学生来说，是关于学校住宿方面非常有用的参考内容。而对于宿舍管理员（Dorm managers）、寻求住房的教授（Professors seeking housing）以及深造的毕业生（Graduates for further study）来说，这些内容并非主要针对他们的需求，所以文章最可能的受众是大学申请者。故选C项。 They said it couldn’t be done. They said he was crazy. They said he would never make it. But Duane Hansen and his beautiful pumpkin, which he named Berta, proved them all wrong. Like Cinderella’s fairy godmother, this Nebraska man proved that you really can turn a pumpkin into a functional vehicle — in this case, a seaworthy vessel(船). Yes, you read that right. Hansen wanted to celebrate his 60th birthday by hollowing out his prized 846-pound pumpkin and sailing down the Missouri River inside it. Not only did Hansen enjoy a pumpkin sail on his special day, but his 38-mile journey also landed him a world record! In case you wondered, the previous world record for the longest sail in a pumpkin was 25 miles, set by a North Dakota man in 2018. It wasn’t an easy journey. Growing a pumpkin big enough to use as a boat is already a challenge. Then, there was his chosen waterway. The city of Bellevue, Nebraska, posted a photogragh of Hansen on the water that offers a reminder of just how big the Missouri River is. “He has always said that you can do anything you want and I’m just so proud,” Hansen’s daughter Morgan Buchholz said. Hansen reportedly spent nearly a decade trying to grow a pumpkin big enough to work as a sailing vessel. He was inspired to begin his mission after meeting a woman who had previously won “the Biggest Pumpkin Competition”. He asked her many questions about her experience. As for his pumpkin-sailing future, “I’m done with this.” Hansen said that the voyage made his knees ache. The wake (尾流) from boats was rough, and when they passed, he said he had to stop everything and just hang on. “If somebody breaks this record, I will, like, bow down to them because they are tough,” he said. 4. Why did Hansen go on a pumpkin journey? A. To observe his birthday. B. To show his prized pumpkin. C. To break a world record. D. To prove pumpkin could be a vessel. 5. What did Hansen do to make his journey possible? A. He chose a calm waterway. B. He talked with the previous record holder. C. He convinced his family to support his plan. D. He worked a long time to grow the pumpkin. 6. What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. His knees got seriously injured in the sailing. B. His vessel turned over in the wake from boats. C. Hansen will respect whoever breaks his record. D. Hansen will continue the pumpkin-sailing in future. 7. What does Hansen’s story tell us? A. It is never too old to learn. B. Time and tide wait for no man. C. Where there’s a will, there’s a way. D. Fear always springs from ignorance 【答案】4. A 5. D 6. C 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是记叙文。文章讲述了汉森用南瓜作为工具完成了旅行，打破了记录，完成别人认为不可能的事情，生动诠释“有志者，事竟成”。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段的“Hansen wanted to celebrate his 60th birthday by hollowing out his prized 846-pound pumpkin and sailing down the Missouri River inside it.( 汉森为了庆祝他的60岁生日，他掏空了他珍贵的846磅重的南瓜，然后沿着密苏里河流而下。)”可知，汉森进行南瓜之旅是为了庆祝他的生日。故选A。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“It wasn’t an easy journey. Growing a pumpkin big enough to use as a boat is already a challenge. ( 这不是一段轻松的旅程。培育一个大到可以用作船的南瓜已经是一个挑战。)”和倒数第二段的“Hansen reportedly spent nearly a decade trying to grow a pumpkin big enough to work as a sailing vessel.( 据报道，汉森花了近十年的时间，试图种植一个足够大的南瓜，以作为一艘帆船。)”可知，为了进行他的旅行，汉森花了很长时间来种植南瓜。故选D。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段的“‘If somebody breaks this record, I will, like, bow down to them because they are tough,’he said.(他说：“如果有人打破了这个记录，我愿意向他们低头，因为他们很坚强。”)”可推断，汉森尊重打破他记录的任何人。故选C。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“They said it couldn’t be done. They said he was crazy. They said he would never make it.(他们说这是不可能的。他们说他疯了。他们说他不会成功的。)”，第二段“But Duane Hansen and his beautiful pumpkin, which he named Berta, proved them all wrong. Like Cinderella’s fairy godmother, this Nebraska man proved that you really can turn a pumpkin into a functional vehicle — in this case, a seaworthy vessel(船).(但杜安·汉森和他的漂亮南瓜——他给它起名为波塔——证明了他们都错了。就像灰姑娘的仙女教母一样，这位内布拉斯加州的男子证明了你真的可以把南瓜变成一种实用的交通工具——在这种情况下，一艘适航的船只。)”，第四段“It wasn’t an easy journey. Growing a pumpkin big enough to use as a boat is already a challenge. (这不是一段轻松的旅程。培育一个大到可以用作船的南瓜已经是一个挑战。)”以及下文内容可知，汉森用南瓜作为工具完成了他的旅行，完成别人认为不可能的事情，因此推断他的故事告诉我们“有志者，事竟成”。故选C。 In the breathtaking natural setting of the Cairngorms National Park in the Scottish Highlands, local people’s outdoor activities are changing. An outdoor dementia (痴呆) center is taking shape. It is already enabling the locals affected with various forms of memory loss, their carers and families, to admire nature once again. This project is shaking up the indoor lifestyles that typically become the reality of so many people with dementia, and is instead making the great outdoors reachable for them. It also frees them from their social isolation. “People and their carers tend to come for specific events like walking, bird-watching, gardening,” says Bruce, Communications and Campaigns Lead. So far, many have expressed how reconnecting with and caring for these wild places uplifts them, especially after dementia cut them off from the obvious wellness benefits of being outdoors. Some have described their days with specific words like “calming”, “brilliant”, and “magical”. Actually, before this project, there was a smaller program called “The Tipi Project”. It got people with dementia and their carers out and about and socializing in the park doing things like woodland walks, wildlife surveys and woodcarving. Carers who attended the activities reported that their loved ones became more relaxed and cheerful after the outdoor sessions. Then the new outdoor dementia center appeared as a natural progression. Gillian Councill, Localities Lead at Alzheimer Scotland, noticed how in the outdoors, the anxiety and stress associated with dementia disappeared. “You know that feeling of trying to remember something or trying to achieve something? Nature has got a special way of taking that feeling away,” she says. “I want this project to be within the reach of people with dementia, so they can get out into nature as they once loved to do.” 8. How does the dementia center positively influence the sufferers? A. By changing indoor design styles. B. By strengthening training for carers. C. By organizing outdoor activities. D. By offering specialized medical treatments. 9. What is the participants’ attitude towards the new project? A. Doubtful. B. Shocked. C. Supportive. D. Uncertain. 10. Why does the author mention “The Tipi Project” in paragraph 4? A. To provide a background. B. To introduce a novel program. C. To highlight a competing project. D. To advertise an outdoor center. 11. What do Gillian Councill’s words show? A. Her focus on bringing back old traditions. B. Her recognition of nature’s calming effect. C. Her methods of dealing with mental stress. D. Her aim for upgrading dementia care practices. 【答案】8. C 9. C 10. A 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了苏格兰凯恩戈姆斯国家公园内一家户外痴呆中心如何通过组织户外活动，让痴呆患者及其照护者重新亲近自然、缓解焦虑并获得身心益处。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“This project is shaking up the indoor lifestyles that typically become the reality of so many people with dementia, and is instead making the great outdoors reachable for them. It also frees them from their social isolation. “People and their carers tend to come for specific events like walking, bird-watching, gardening,” says Bruce, Communications and Campaigns Lead.(这个项目正在改变通常成为许多痴呆症患者现实生活的室内生活方式，并使他们能够接触到伟大的户外生活。这也使他们摆脱了社会孤立。“人们和他们的照顾者往往会来参加一些特定的活动，比如散步、观鸟、园艺，”传播和活动主管布鲁斯说)”可知，痴呆症中心通过组织户外活动对患者产生积极影响。故选C。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“So far, many have expressed how reconnecting with and caring for these wild places uplifts them, especially after dementia cut them off from the obvious wellness benefits of being outdoors. Some have described their days with specific words like “calming”, “brilliant”, and “magical”.(到目前为止，许多人都表示，与这些荒野重新联系和照顾让他们感到振奋，尤其是在痴呆症使他们无法享受户外活动带来的明显健康益处之后。有些人用“平静”、“辉煌”和“神奇”等词来形容他们的日子)”可知，这项活动给参与者带来很多益处，他们使用积极的词汇来描述他们的日子。由此推知，他们对新项目持支持、赞赏态度。故选C。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Actually, before this project, there was a smaller program called “The Tipi Project”. It got people with dementia and their carers out and about and socializing in the park doing things like woodland walks, wildlife surveys and woodcarving. Carers who attended the activities reported that their loved ones became more relaxed and cheerful after the outdoor sessions. Then the new outdoor dementia center appeared as a natural progression. (实际上，在这个项目之前，有一个更小的项目叫做“The Tipi Project”。它让痴呆症患者和他们的照顾者出去走走，在公园里进行社交活动，比如林地漫步、野生动物调查和木雕。参加活动的护理人员报告说，他们的亲人在户外活动后变得更加放松和愉快。然后，新的户外痴呆症中心自然出现了)”可知，第四段先回顾规模较小的“The Tipi Project”取得的良好效果，再说明新中心是其“natural progression”，意在提供项目发展的背景。故选A。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Gillian Councill, Localities Lead at Alzheimer Scotland, noticed how in the outdoors, the anxiety and stress associated with dementia disappeared. “You know that feeling of trying to remember something or trying to achieve something?

In today’s world, it’s easy to compare yourselves with others and think that you aren’t really doing as much as you should be, could be, need to be. Take a step back and you’ll realize your inner critic doesn’t give you a true perspective on the situation. The book, written by J. P. Fiddlebrook, is well-organized and highly accessible with a mix of humor, practical wisdom, and relatable stories. It contains sixteen chapters that touch on a variety of elements of self-confidence. It starts out with looking at the past — the baggage that we carry with us that affects our perceptions. Then it moves on to the right now — how social media and self-talk influence us. The highlights are focused on the future — the things we can do to help shake ourselves out of the cycle of negative thoughts and reframe patterns. Mindfulness and gratitude are obviously part of it. The techniques and methods for dealing with inner emotions discussed in this part are vital, such as, how to quiet your inner critic’s loudspeaker, why chasing perfection is like running on a treadmill while eating cake and how to overcome the social media comparison trap. At the end is a chapter devoted to asking for help — something very hard for a lot of people, but something extremely important to make a positive community that lifts everyone up. This book offers a refreshing escape from the cycle of self-criticism. The self-help guide encourages you to embrace your imperfections and find joy in the little things. After reading, you realize that you actually are OK, and to get resources for further improvement, not the kind of book that you want to get really heavy and overwhelming. With brief sections, it’s perfect for reading a little bit, and then reflecting and working to make adjustments to your mindsets and habits, to remind yourself that you’re really not that bad after all. 12. What is a feature of the book according to the text? A. It is filled with moving stories. B. It provides well-tested strategies. C. It adopts an easy-to-understand writing style. D. It is intended for people with mental problems. 13. What does the underlined word “baggage” in paragraph 2 refer to? A. Benefit. B. Responsibility. C. Duty. D. Load. 14. What does the future-focused section discuss? A. Social media’s impact. B. Overcoming negativity. C. Inner critic management. D. Avoiding perfection traps. 15. What is the book aimed at? A. Advocating a healthy lifestyle. B. Teaching critical thinking skills. C. Boosting one’s self-worth in life. D. Promoting the cycle of self-criticism. 【答案】12. C 13. D 14. B 15. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文，主要介绍了J. P. Fiddlebrook所著的书籍《You’re Probably Not As Awful As You Think》。该书旨在帮助读者摆脱自我批判的循环，认识到自己实际表现比想象中更好，书中通过幽默的语言、实用的智慧和贴近生活的故事，从过去、现在、未来三个维度展开，还提供了应对内心情绪的方法，是一本能提升读者自我价值感的自助指南。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“The book, written by J. P. Fiddlebrook, is well - organized and highly accessible with a mix of humor, practical wisdom, and relatable stories(这本书由J. P. Fiddlebrook所写，组织有序且极易理解，融合了幽默、实用智慧和引人共鸣的故事)”可知，这本书采用了易于理解的写作风格。故选C项。 【13题详解】 词句猜测题。根据文章第二段“It starts out with looking at the past—the … that we carry with us that affects our perceptions. Then it moves on to the right now—how social media and self - talk influence us(它首先着眼于过去——那些我们背负着、并影响我们认知的……。接着转向当下——探讨社交媒体和自我对话如何影响着我们)”可知，下文提到了背负着，还提到了影响我们的认知，可推理出划线词的含义为“行李”，与“Load（负荷、负担）”意思相近。故选D项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“The highlights are focused on the future—the things we can do to help shake ourselves out of the cycle of negative thoughts and reframe patterns. Mindfulness and gratitude are obviously part of it.(亮点集中在未来——我们可以做些什么来帮助自己摆脱消极思想的循环并重新构建模式。正念和感恩显然也是其中的一部分)”可知，未来聚焦部分讨论的是克服消极情绪。故选B项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“You’re Probably Not As Awful As You Think encourages you to believe exactly what the title says—that no matter what’s going on, you’re actually doing better than you think.(《你或许没有自己想的那么糟糕》鼓励你相信标题所说的——无论发生什么，你实际上做得比自己认为的要好)”以及第三段“This book offers a refreshing escape from the cycle of self – criticism(这本书为摆脱自我批评的循环提供了一种令人耳目一新的方式)”以及“The self - help guide encourages you to embrace your imperfections and find joy in the little things.(这本自助指南鼓励你接纳自己的不完美，并在小事中找到乐趣)”可知，《你或许没有自己想的那么糟糕》鼓励你相信标题所说的——无论发生什么，你实际上做得比自己认为的要好，这本书为摆脱自我批评的循环提供了一种令人耳目一新的方式，它鼓励你接纳自己的不完美，并在小事中找到乐趣，可推理出这本书旨在提升一个人在生活中的自我价值感。故选C项。 第二节(共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 The 80/20 rule is the principle that 20% of what you do results in 80% of your outcomes. ___16___ Because so much of your output is determined by a relatively small amount of what you do each day, focusing on the most productive tasks will result in greater output. You can’t use the 80/20 rule to your advantage unless you know what it is you want to focus on. How do you cut out all the background noise and zero in on that 20% that’s going to make an extraordinary difference in your life? ___17___ Your purpose is the foundation of everything in your life or in your business. ___18___ It’s that important. Your purpose could be something like having more time with your family, the freedom to live life on your terms, or the money to travel the world. In business, your purpose is your company vision. It’s the reason you started the business in the first place. ___19___ Write down five things you could start doing today to help you get to live your purpose. Then prioritize them by how fast they will get you to your goal. The top item — the most meaningful — is your first priority. You’re not done yet. Priorities are nice, but they’re not enough to get you over the finish line. You need to create SMART goals: steps you can take that are specific, measurable, Achievable, Realistic and set within a Time Frame. ___20___ These specific action items are the real 20% of the 80/20 rule — the things you’ll spend 20% of your time doing that will generate the best results. A. Now it’s time to get more specific. B. It explains why focusing on key tasks matters. C. Rank your purposes by the level of importance. D You can apply the principle to your personal goals. E. Then you need to hold yourself accountable for them. F. Follow this equation: Purpose + Priority = Productivity. G. If you don’t know your purpose, you can’t create goals or take action. 【答案】16. B 17. F 18. G 19. A 20. E 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了80/20法则，即20%的行动会产生80%的结果，并阐述了如何运用这一法则来提高个人和商业效率。 【16题详解】 上文“The 80/20 rule is the principle that 20% of what you do results in 80% of your outcomes.(80/20法则是指你做的20%的事情会产生80%的结果这一原则。)”介绍了80/20法则的定义。下文“Because so much of your output is determined by a relatively small amount of what you do each day, focusing on the most productive tasks will result in greater output.(因为你每天所做的事情中，有一小部分决定了你的大部分产出，所以专注于最有成效的任务将带来更大的产出。)”解释了为什么聚焦于关键任务很重要。B项（它解释了为什么聚焦关键任务很重要）”中的“it” 直接指代前文的“80/20 rule”，既承接了法则的定义，又通过“explains why” 引出下文对“聚焦关键任务”原因的阐述，起到承上启下的作用，符合语境。故选B。 【17题详解】 上文“You can’t use the 80/20 rule to your advantage unless you know what it is you want to focus on. How do you cut out all the background noise and zero in on that 20% that’s going to make an extraordinary difference in your life?(除非你知道自己想要关注什么，否则你无法利用80/20法则来为自己谋利。你如何排除所有干扰，专注于那20%会对你的生活产生非凡影响的事情呢？)”提出“如何排除干扰并锁定那20%的关键任务”，需要一个能给出核心解决思路的句子来回应。F项（遵循这个等式：目标 + 优先事项 = 效率） 直接提供了答案——通过 “明确目标” 和 “确定优先事项” 来找到关键20%，同时为下文分别介绍“目标” 和 “优先事项”的具体内容做好铺垫，逻辑连贯，符合语境。故选F。 【18题详解】 上文提到“Your purpose is the foundation of everything in your life or in your business.(你的目标是你生活或事业中一切的基础。)”“目标是基础”，后文用“It’s that important（它如此重要）”强调其价值。G选项（若不清楚目标，则无法制定计划或行动）通过反面论证强化目标的重要性，与上下文形成递进，故选G。 【19题详解】 下文“Write down five things you could start doing today to help you get to live your purpose. Then prioritize them by how fast they will get you to your goal. The top item—the most meaningful—is your first priority.(写下你今天可以开始做的五件事情，以帮助你实现人生目标。然后根据它们能让你多快实现目标来对它们进行排序。最上面的一项——也是最有意义的一项——是你的首要任务。)”具体描述了操作步骤，其核心是将 “目标”转化为具体、有优先级的行动。A项（现在是时候更具体一些了）中的“get more specific（更具体）”恰好对应下文“写具体事项、排序定优先的操作，承接了前文“明确目标”的内容，自然引出“确定优先事项”的具体环节，符合语境。故选A。 【20题详解】 上文“You need to create SMART goals: steps you can take that are specific, measurable, Achievable, Realistic and set within a Time Frame.(你需要设定SMART目标，即具体、可衡量、可实现、现实且在时间框架内设定的步骤。)”指出，需要设定SMART目标。下文“These specific action items are the real 20% of the 80/20 rule—the things you’ll spend 20% of your time doing that will generate the best results.(这些具体的行动项目是80/20法则中真正的20%，即你会花20%的时间去做但会产生最好结果的事情。)”突出“落实行动项”的重要性。由此可知，空处应阐述设定SMART目标后的做法或态度。E选项（然后你需要对自己负责。）符合语境，承接上文，说明设定目标后要对自己负责，去执行这些目标，且E项中的“them”指代前文的“SMART goals”。故选E。 第三部分 语言运用(共三节，满分45分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Ever since he was a kid, Arjun loved reading stories.
