Any challenging activity — from computer programming to playing a musical instrument to athletics — requires 1 practice. A perfect golf swing or faultless butterfly stroke (蝶泳) takes countless hours of practice and repetitions to perfect. Anyone who wants to have a good command of a skill must go through the 2 of practice, critical feedback, polish, and increasing improvement again, again, and again. Some people seem able to concentrate on practicing an activity like this for years and take pleasure in their gradual improvement. Yet others find this kind of focused, time-intensive work to be 3 or boring. Why? The distinction may depend on the ability to enter into a state of “flow,” the feeling of being completely involved in what you are doing. Flow states can happen in the course of any activity, and they are most common when a task has definite goals and where the individual is able to 4 their performance to clear and immediate feedback. Csikszentmihalyi suggested that those who most 5 entered into flow states had an “autotelic personality” — a tendency to seek out challenges and get into a state of flow. While those without such a personality see difficulties, autotelic individuals see opportunities to build skills and they have low levels of self-centeredness. Such people, with their ability to focus on tasks rather than rewards have a great 6 over others in developing their innate (天生的) abilities. But how can we get into flow state for an activity so that we enjoy both the process of improving skills and the 7 of being a master? Obviously for those of us who don’t necessarily possess an autotelic personality, there is evidence that flow states can be 8 by environmental factors. For instance, in Montessori schools, students do not study by following direct instruction. Instead, they are encouraged to develop and pursue personal interests. Competition is 9 and grading is not emphasized. Students are grouped together according to shared interests, rather than separated by ability. While there isn’t yet a pill that can turn dull practice into an exciting activity for anyone, it is comforting that we seem to be able to advance into flow states. By giving ourselves unstructured, open-ended time, minimum distractions and task set at moderate level of 10 , we may be able to love what we’re doing while we put in the hard work practicing the things we love doing. 1．A．fixed B．concentrated C．paralleled D．instructed 2．A．transformation B．substitute C．cycle D．condition 3．A．poisonous B．rewarding C．ignorant D．frustrating 4．A．apply B．devote C．adjust D．expose 5．A．deliberately B．readily C．hesitantly D．flexibly 6．A．feature B．control C．advantage D．sympathy 7．A．security B．jealousy C．reward D．contribution 8．A．cultivated B．extended C．influenced D．bridged 9．A．advocated B．suspended C．discouraged D．observed 10．A．priority B．difficulty C．curiosity D．identity 【答案】 1．B 2．C 3．D 4．C 5．B 6．C 7．C 8．A 9．C 10．B 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要讲述的是如何通过专注和环境因素进入“心流”状态，享受技能提升的过程，并最终获得掌握技能的满足感。 1．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：任何具有挑战性的活动——从计算机编程到演奏乐器再到运动——都需要集中精力练习。A. fixed固定的；B. concentrated集中精力的、全神贯注的；C. paralleled平行的；D. instructed受教育的、得到指示的。根据下文“A perfect golf swing or flawless butterfly stroke (蝶泳) takes countless hours of practice and repetitions to perfect.(一个完美的高尔夫挥杆或完美的蝶泳需要无数小时的练习和重复来完美。)”可知，此处表示“全神贯注的”练习，与下文呼应，符合语境。故选B项。 2．考查名词词义辨析。句意：任何想要掌握一项技能的人都必须经历练习、批评反馈、润色和不断改进的循环，一次又一次。A. transformation转变；B. substitute替代物；C. cycle循环；D. condition条件。根据下文的“again, again, and again”可知，此处为“循环”表示一遍又一遍的，符合语境。故选C项。 3．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：但也有人觉得这种集中精力、耗费时间的工作令人沮丧或无聊。A. poisonous有毒的；B. rewarding值得的；C. ignorant无知的；D. frustrating令人沮丧的。根据句意以及下文的“or boring”可知，此处用frustrating和boring相呼应，表示“令人沮丧的”符合语境。故选D项。 4．考查动词词义辨析。句意：心流状态可以发生在任何活动的过程中，当一项任务有明确的目标，并且个人能够调整自己的表现以获得清晰和即时的反馈时，这种状态最常见。A. apply申请；B. devote献身；C. adjust调整；D. expose暴露。根据下文的“to clear and immediate feedback.”可知，以获得清晰和即时的反馈，所以此处表示“调整以适应”符合语境。故选C项。 5．考查副词词义辨析。句意：Csikszentmihalyi认为，那些最容易进入心流状态的人有一种“自我人格”，即寻求挑战并进入心流状态的倾向。A. deliberately故意地；B. readily容易地、乐意地；C. hesitantly犹豫地；D. flexibly灵活地。根据下文“had an “autotelic personality”—a tendency to seek out challenges and get into a state of flow.(有“自我人格”——倾向于寻求挑战并进入心流状态。)”可知，拥有一种“自我人格”的人更容易进入心流状态，所以此处表示“容易”进入心流状态的人具有这种“自我人格”，符合语境。故选B项。 6．考查名词词义辨析。句意：这样的人，他们专注于任务而不是奖励的能力，在发展他们的先天能力方面比其他人有很大的优势。A. feature特点；B. control控制；C. advantage优势；D. sympathy同情。根据上文的“Such people, with their ability to focus on tasks rather than rewards”以及下文的“over others in developing their innate (天生的) abilities.”可知，专注任务而不是奖励的能力人在发展他们的先天能力方面比其他人更有“优势”，此处是进行对比，符合语境。故选C项。 7．考查名词词义辨析。句意：但我们如何才能在一项活动中进入心流状态，从而既享受提高技能的过程，又享受成为大师的奖励呢？A. security安全；B. jealousy嫉妒；C. reward奖励、回报；D. contribution贡献。根据上文的“But how can we get into flow state for an activity so that we enjoy both the process of improving skills”以及下文的“being a master”可知，成为大师本身就应该是一种“奖励”符合语境。故选C项。 8．考查动词词义辨析。句意：但我们如何才能在一项活动中进入心流状态，从而既享受提高技能的过程，又享受成为大师的奖励呢？A. cultivated培养；B. extended延伸；C. influenced影响；D. bridged在……上架桥。根据下文的“they are encouraged to develop and pursue individual interests(鼓励他们发展和追求个人兴趣)”可知，心流状态是可以通过环境因素被培养的，所以此处表示“培养”符合语境。故选A项。 9．考查动词词义辨析。句意：学校不鼓励竞争，不强调评分。A. advocated提倡；B. suspended暂停；C. discouraged不鼓励、使泄气；D. observed观察。根据下文“grading is not emphasized(不强调评分)”可知，此处表示竞争是“不被鼓励的”符合语境。故选C项。 10．考查名词词义辨析。句意：通过给自己自由安排的、开放的时间、最少的干扰和中等难度的任务设置，我们可能会在努力练习我们喜欢做的事情的同时爱上我们正在做的事情。A. priority优先权；B. difficulty困难；C. curiosity好奇心；D. identity身份。根据上文“By giving ourselves unstructured, open-ended time, minimum distractions,(通过给自己自由的、开放的时间，减少干扰，)”可知，此处表示设置“中等难度”任务，与上文呼应，符合语境。故选B项。 第二节 语法填空（共10小题，每小题1.5分,共15分） 阅读下列短文，根据短文内容填空，在未给提示词的空白处仅填写1个适当的单词，在给出提示词的空白处用括号内所给词的正确形式填空。 A When you take a walk in any of the cities in the West, you often see a lot of people 11 (walk) with dogs.

Now compile our informative lists below.(我们的使命是帮助忙碌但好奇的家庭厨师做出最好的购买决定。现在整理我们下面的信息列表)”和下文主要介绍了四个烹饪学校的相关信息可知，文章的主要目的是推荐烹饪学校。故选D项。 B As a student, I spent many days and nights standing on a forested slope in the rain. I loved the outdoors, and it was more like play than work. I was thrilled when I could connect what I saw to what I read. My ideas seemed to flow like the stream I was trying to understand. When I started my first teaching position, I no longer had the freedom to focus purely on research or think deeply about any given topic. I was consumed by pressing management demands and my creative stream narrowed. A decade later, I moved to a new university and was able to return to the topic I studied for my Ph. D．research. I found that if I could be in the moment with my students and act as a sounding board for new ideas — and not be distracted by my mid-career responsibilities — then I could play a part in their creative thought process. Creativity crept back into my work life, but I hadn’t yet found a way to stimulate my own deep thinking. Another decade had passed before I learned how to get my own creative stream flowing again. After accepting a position in my hometown, I had a few months between jobs when I was as free as a bird. And that’s when my first real post-Ph. D．eureka moment (顿悟) struck, while I was at a gym watching the rain fall onto a lawn outside. I was able to visualize similar processes that I had been trying to understand. But it was even more thrilling because it was a type of thought that I worried had permanently dried up. It was clear that I needed to slow down and experience the rain more often! In this new job, I tried to heed (留心) this enlightenment. I made a point to think and write a little bit at home each morning, in a room overlooking the large river. After that, I’d cycle to work along the banks, which helped me process those ideas and remember my daily goal of being curious. Fun drove what I worked on. And soon enough, I had new ideas to bring to the table. I now encourage my students to disconnect and take time out to think, to play, to have fun with their research. And to make these things a permanent habit in their lives. I also tell them to pay attention to the conditions and places that foster their curiosity and ability to think deeply. By openly discussing creativity, I hope we can help the next generation of scientists avoid losing it along the way, as I did. 24．What situation did the author find himself in when he started the first teaching position? A．He lost interest in his research. B．He couldn’t think clearly anymore. C．He was not as creative as before. D．He was heavily demanded by students. 25．What can we know about the author after he moved to a new university? A．He helped students with their Ph. D．research. B．He discovered a new topic for his mid-career. C．He began to take on more career responsibilities. D．He engaged himself in students’ thinking process. 26．How did the author feel during his free time in his hometown? A．Energetic and proud. B．Inspired and refreshed. C．Thrilled and supported. D．Curious and adventurous. 27．What can we learn from the author’s experience? A．East or west, home is the best. B．Small streams make great rivers. C．Creativity is the mother of invention. D．All work no play makes Jack a dull boy. 【答案】24．C 25．D 26．B 27．D 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。本文主要讲述了作者在读博士时，很有创造力，但是开始第一份教学工作时，作者的创造力干涸了，在经过一段时间的探索，作者又重新找回了创造力。 24．推理判断题。根据第二段“When I started my first teaching position, I no longer had the freedom to focus purely on research or think deeply about any given topic. I was consumed by pressing management demands and my creative stream narrowed.( 当我开始我的第一个教学职位时，我不再有纯粹专注于研究或深入思考任何给定主题的自由。我被紧迫的管理要求所消耗，我的创意流也变窄了。)”可知，当作者开始第一份教学工作时，他被紧迫的管理需求所占据，不再有自由纯粹地专注于研究或深入思考任何特定话题，他的创作灵感也变窄了，即他不像以前那样有创造力了。故选C项。 25．细节理解题。根据第三段“A decade later, I moved to a new university and was able to return to the topic I studied for my Ph. D. research. I found that if I could be in the moment with my students and act as a sounding board for new ideas — and not be distracted by my mid-career responsibilities—then I could play a part in their creative thought process.( 十年后，我去了一所新的大学，又回到了我的博士研究课题。我发现，如果我能和我的学生们在一起，充当新想法的传声筒，而不被我的中期职业责任分散注意力，那么我就能在他们的创造性思维过程中发挥作用。)”可知，作者搬到新大学后，能够回到他博士研究的课题上，并且发现如果他能和学生在一起，作为新想法的倾听者，不被职业生涯中期的责任分散注意力，他就能参与到学生的创造性思维过程中。故选D项。 26．推理判断题。根据第五段“After accepting a position in my hometown, I had a few months between jobs when I was as free as a bird. And that’s when my first real post-Ph. D. eureka moment (顿悟) struck, while I was at a gym watching the rain fall onto a lawn outside. I was able to visualize similar processes that I had been trying to understand. But it was even more thrilling because it was a type of thought that I worried had permanently dried up. It was clear that I needed to slow down and experience the rain more often!( 在接受了家乡的一份工作后，我有几个月的空闲时间。那是我博士毕业后第一次真正的。灵光一现的时刻来了，当时我正在健身房看着雨落在外面的草坪上。我能够想象出我一直试图理解的类似过程。但更令人兴奋的是，我担心这种想法已经永远枯竭了。很明显，我需要慢下来，多体验一下下雨的感觉！)”可知，作者在家乡有几个月的空闲时间，像鸟儿一样自由，并且有了顿悟，能够想象出他一直试图理解的类似过程，而且这种想法让他很激动，因为他曾担心这种思维已经永远枯竭了，他意识到自己需要慢下来，更多地体验这种时刻。所以作者在这段时间感到受到启发且精神振奋。故选B项。 27．推理判断题。根据文章大意以及最后一段“I now encourage my students to disconnect and take time out to think, to play, to have fun with their research. And to make these things a permanent habit in their lives. I also tell them to pay attention to the conditions and places that foster their curiosity and ability to think deeply. By openly discussing creativity, I hope we can help the next generation of scientists avoid losing it along the way, as I did.( 我现在鼓励我的学生们脱离现实，花时间去思考，去玩耍，去享受他们的研究。并使这些事情成为他们生活中永久的习惯。我还告诉他们要注意那些能培养他们好奇心和深度思考能力的条件和场所。通过公开讨论创造力，我希望我们可以帮助下一代科学家避免像我一样在这个过程中失去创造力。)”可知，作者一开始热爱户外研究，想法如溪流般流淌，后来从事教学工作被管理需求占据，创造力下降，之后通过让自己放松、有空闲时间去思考和体验，创造力又回来了。作者还鼓励学生断开连接，抽出时间去思考、玩耍，把这些变成生活中的习惯。这说明只工作不玩耍会让人变得迟钝，即“All work no play makes Jack a dull boy.”（只工作不玩耍，聪明孩子也变傻）。故选D项。 C When it was announced in 2018 that the Chinese Academy of Sciences in Shanghai had created the world’s first cloned monkeys, Zhongzhong and Huahua, heated discussions followed online. In fact, cloning has always been with us. It is a way of making an exact copy of another animal or plant. It happens in plants when gardeners take cuttings from growing plants to make new ones. It also happens in animals when identical twins are produced from the same egg. These are both examples of natural clones. Cloning has two major uses. First, gardeners use it to produce large quantities of plants for sale. Second, it is valuable for research on new plant species and for medical research on animals. Cloning plants is fairly straightforward, while cloning animals is much more complicated and difficult. Over the years, many scientists failed in their attempts to clone animals, but their determination and patience paid off in 1996 with a breakthrough—the cloning of Dolly the sheep. With the advances of scientific research, cloning will have several major uses, in the future. For one thing, it could be used to breed animal species which are endangered, or even bring back species which are now extinct. For another, it could be used to grow human organs or tissue in animals, which could be used for human organ transplants or medical treatments. Finally, cloning could be used to breed animals that will provide us with higher quality meat, milk, or eggs. While there are technical issues that need to be worked through to make widespread cloning possible, the biggest concerns are moral. For example, if scientists brought an extinct animal back into existence, it would probably end up living in a zoo. That is not very good for the animal. Even worse for the animal is using it as a source of organ transplants—because it will be injured or even die. In addition, many people worry that eating animal products that result from cloning might be harmful to our health over time. The possibility of using cloning to produce human beings is an even bigger concern. What would happen if such knowledge ended up in the wrong hands? When it comes to cloning, we wonder, ultimately, whether cloning will help or harm the world. No doubt, we will be talking about this question for a long time to come. 28．What can we learn about cloning? A．Cloned animals first appeared in 2018. B．Cloned plants are mainly used for medical research. C．Cloning technology can be used in the study of new plant species. D．Cloning plants is more complicated and difficult than cloning animals. 29．What is the main idea of Paragraph 3? A．Future uses of cloning. B．Scientific researches of cloning. C．The products provided by cloning. D．The medical treatments brought about by cloning, 30．What does the underlined word “moral” in Paragraph 4 refer to? A．Physical health. B．Technical development. C．Principle and belief. D．Knowledge and experience. 31．What’s the author’s attitude towards cloning? A．Supportive. B．Objective. C．Disapproving. D．Unconcerned. 【答案】28．C 29．A 30．C 31．B 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了克隆的主要用途和存在的问题。 28．细节理解题。根据第二段中“Second, it is valuable for research on new plant species and for medical research on animals.( 其次，它对植物新物种的研究和动物医学研究都很有价值。)”可知，克隆技术对新植物物种的研究和动物的医学研究有价值，也就是克隆技术可用于新植物物种的研究。故选C项。 29．主旨大意题。根据第三段“With the advances of scientific research, cloning will have several major uses, in the future. For one thing, it could be used to breed animal species which are endangered, or even bring back species which are now extinct. For another, it could be used to grow human organs or tissue in animals, which could be used for human organ transplants or medical treatments. Finally, cloning could be used to breed animals that will provide us with higher quality meat, milk, or eggs.( 随着科学研究的进步，克隆将有几个主要用途，在未来。一方面，它可以用来繁殖濒临灭绝的动物物种，甚至可以复活现在已经灭绝的物种。另一方面，它可以用来在动物身上培养人体器官或组织，这可以用于人体器官移植或医学治疗。最后，克隆可以用来繁殖动物，为我们提供更高质量的肉、奶或蛋。)”可知，主要讲述了随着科学研究的进步，克隆在未来的几种主要用途，如繁殖濒危动物、培育人体器官用于移植、繁殖提供更高质量产品的动物等，所以第三段的主要内容是克隆的未来用途。故选A项。 30．词义猜测题。根据第四段中“For example, if scientists brought an extinct animal back into existence, it would probably end up fiving in a zoo. That is not very good for the animal. Even worse for the animal is using it as a source of organ transplants—because it will be injured or even die. In addition, many people worry that eating animal products that result from cloning might be harmful to our health over time. The possibility of using cloning to produce human beings is an even bigger concern. What would happen if such knowledge ended up in the wrong hands?( 例如，如果科学家让一种灭绝的动物复活，它可能最终会生活在动物园里。这对动物来说不是很好。对动物来说，更糟糕的是将其用作器官移植的来源，因为它会受伤甚至死亡。此外，许多人担心，随着时间的推移，吃克隆动物产品可能对我们的健康有害。利用克隆技术生产人类的可能性是一个更大的问题。如果这些知识落入坏人之手，会发生什么？)”可知，根据第四段所举的例子，如克隆已灭绝的动物可能使其生活在动物园对动物不好，把动物作为器官移植的来源会伤害甚至杀死动物，很多人担心食用克隆动物产品可能对健康有害，以及克隆人类的可能性会带来的问题等，这些都是从道德、原则和信仰层面的担忧，所以“moral”指的是 “Principle and belief”（原则和信仰），C 选项正确。故选C项。 31．推理判断题。根据文章大意以及最后一段“When it comes to cloning, we wonder, ultimately, whether cloning will help or harm the world. No doubt, we will be talking about this question for a long time to come.( 当谈到克隆，我们想知道，最终，克隆是否会帮助或伤害世界。毫无疑问，我们将在今后很长一段时间内讨论这个问题。)”可知，文章既介绍了克隆的用途，如在植物繁殖、新物种研究、医学研究、繁殖濒危动物、培育人体器官等方面的作用，又阐述了克隆存在的问题，如道德方面的担忧等，没有偏向支持或反对克隆，所以作者对克隆的态度是客观的。故选B项。 D Life, it could be argued, is like a long game of blackjack. In one common version of this, each person is dealt with two playing cards. The aim is for your hand to add to 21, or as close to this as you can get. Player can either “stick” with their existing hand or “twist”— asking to be dealt another card to add to their total. The risk, of course, is that you exceed 21 and are eliminated. This may sound far removed from everyday choices, but many of our most important life decisions boil down to such dilemmas. Should I stay put or take the leap and move house? Should I remain in my job or start my own business? The inherent uncertainty leaves many of us ending up staying in the status quo, never giving ourselves the chance to win big. Perhaps we can learn a trick from “maximisers”: individuals with a strong urge to find the optimal(最佳的)outcome for every situation. They would be more willing to”twist” if their current options aren’t working. And this approach to life certainly has some advantages. For example, among a sample of students looking for work, maximisers ended up getting a 20% higher salary compared with “satisficers”, people who tend to choose the first acceptable option. Nevertheless, in reality there are simply too many options to weigh up the pros and cons of every choice. Natural maximisers can feel so overwhelmed with the options, and they are troubled by the doubt that a superior option might be among those they did not evaluate. Perhaps as a consequence, they tend to suffer badly from feelings of regret and”fear of missing out”, which affects their overall life satisfaction. Fortunately, a technique appears to tackle the problem. The strategy is known as psychological distancing, which is akin to taking a fly-on-the-wall view of things. There are many ways to apply it. You might imagine you are advising a close friend in a similar dilemma, for example, or you could try to predict how you would view the decision and its consequences at some time in the mid-to-distant future. Previous research has shown that psychological distancing techniques contribute to greater intellectual humility, which encourages people to consider more sources of information before coming to a judgement. This approach can also help us deal with the consequences of our big decisions. When using psychological distancing techniques, people are better able to regulate their emotions— which we must do to process the choices we have made. In addition, discussing life’s disappointments from such a distanced perspective helps us extract meaning from our experiences. That should prevent you becoming immersed in the feelings of regret that can follow stick-or-twist decisions. As everyone knows, Lady Luck won’t work in your favour all the time, no matter how smart your decision making has been. Nevertheless, by applying this psychological research, you can make the most of your hand— and take greater pleasure in the thrill of the game. 32．The author mentions “maximisers” mainly to _______. A．highlight the advantages of maximisers B．bring out a sound way of making choices C．illustrate the difficulty of decision making D．emphasize the value of informed decisions 33．What can be inferred about psychological distancing? A．Intellectual humble people can optimize psychological distancing. B．The increased psychological distance may expose people to a feeling of regret. C．Increasing psychological distance assists in forming a proper view of negative moods. D．Emotional regulation is crucial in the application of psychological distancing techniques. 34．What can we learn from the passage? A．The first choice should be prioritized. B．Resolving a dilemma ensures the chance to win big. C．Stick-or-twist decisions are vital in reshaping people’s future. D．Looking at the bigger picture results in better decision making. 【答案】32．B 33．C 34．D 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章通过将生活比作一场二十一点游戏，探讨了人们在面对重要决策时常常陷入的“坚持”与“冒险”之间的抉择。文章指出,像最大化者那样寻求最优解的人往往能获得更好的结果,但也容易因选择过多而感到后悔和不安。为此,文章介绍了一种名为“心理距离”的策略,帮助人们以更客观的视角评估决策,从而减少遗憾感,提高生活满意度。最后,文章强调即使决策不总是完美,运用这些心理学技巧也能让我们更好地享受生活的起伏。 32．推理判断题。根据第三段“In addition, discussing life’s disappointments from such a distanced perspective helps us extract meaning from our experiences. That should prevent you becoming immersed in the feelings of regret that can follow stick-or-twist decisions. (也许我们可以从“最大化者”那里学到一招：他们有强烈的冲动去寻找每种情况的最佳结果。)”可知，作者提到“最大化者”主要是给出一种做选择的合理方法。故选B。 33．推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“In addition, discussing life’s disappointments from such a distanced perspective helps us extract meaning from our experiences. That should prevent you becoming immersed in the feelings of regret that can follow stick-or-twist decisions.(此外，从这样一个遥远的角度讨论生活中的失望有助于我们从我们的经历中提取意义。这应该可以防止你沉浸在坚持或扭曲的决定之后的后悔情绪中。)”可知，增加心理距离有助于形成对负面情绪的正确看法。故选C 34．推理判断题。根据最后一段“Nevertheless, by applying this psychological research, you can make the most of your hand— and take greater pleasure in the thrill of the game.(通过应用这项心理研究,你可以充分利用你的优势--并在游戏的刺激中获得更大的乐趣。)”可知，通过纵观全局可以做出更好的决定。因此,我们可以从这篇文章中学到要看大局才能做出更好的决定。故选D。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有项为多余选项。 Ways to Boost Your Self-Control Contrary to popular belief, self-control does not come along by denying yourself something or being “strict” with yourself. It is about loving yourself and developing new habits. 35 This is how you get there: Set clear goals so when it comes down to it, you can think first, act later. When you have knowledge that a greater reward is at stake (得失难料), you are going to have an easier time letting go of immediate satisfaction. Prioritize your list according to what you want to achieve in the future. 36 Motivate yourself to win and remember that life doesn’t happen to you, it happens for you. Anxiety arises from the belief that you are not in control of your life circumstances but are a victim of them. 37 That will set the stage for you to regain your power and access your inner motivation to win and achieve. Know your triggers (诱因) and control the stress response. Certain situations, people or even foods will cause your stress response to be triggered. Your job is to pay attention. 38 It could be sleep deprivation, or it could be a tendency to feel overly criticized by your boss. By knowing your triggers, you can either avoid them or develop ways to deal with them. 39 Either enlist friends or family members to join you or ask for their support to remind you of your long-term goals. The key here is that no one is allowed to criticize you or cause you to feel guilt or shame. Instead, they are to remind you to love yourself and help you get back on track when you slip up. A．Get some reliable partners. B．Who and what causes you to feel emotional? C．You should think twice to avoid possible mistakes. D．Change your mindset to being a victor of your life. E．It will help you follow your heart and improve your performance. F．In other words, it is a positive effort, not one of denial or negativity. G．When following this process, you will think twice before acting on a sudden urge. 【答案】35．F 36．G 37．D 38．B 39．A 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了什么是自我控制并非通过自我压抑或严格自律来实现，并提供了几种具体的方法，包括设定清晰的目标、调整心态、识别压力诱因以及寻求可靠的支持伙伴，以帮助人们更好地管理冲动，实现长期目标。 35．前文“Contrary to popular belief, self-control does not come along by denying yourself something or being “strict” with yourself. It is about loving yourself and developing new habits. (与普遍观点相反，自我控制并不是通过自我压抑或对自己“严格”来实现的。它关乎爱自己和培养新习惯。)”说明了哪种情况不是自我控制，自我控制与什么有关。这表明，接下来的一句，即空格处，应写明自我控制的本质，以引出全文的主题。F项“换句话说，这是一种积极的努力，而不是一种否定或消极的行为。”直接点明什么是自我控制，引出文章主题，下文都围绕如何进行自我控制展开，符合语境。故选F项。 36．本段第一句“Set clear goals so when it comes down to it, you can think first, act later. (设定清晰的目标，这样当你面临选择时，就能先思考、再行动。)”表明，本段写根据目标先思考、后行动有助于进行自我控制，G项“遵循这一过程，你会在冲动之前三思而后行。”中所说的“这一过程”即为前文提到的“设定清晰的目标，先思考、再行动”。同时空处位于本段最后，G项正是对本段的总结，遵循这一过程，可以避免冲动。故选G项。 37．前文“Anxiety arises from the belief that you are not in control of your life circumstances but are a victim of them. (焦虑源于你认为自己无法掌控生活中的境遇，而是成为它们的受害者。)”指出焦虑的根源，后文“That will set the stage for you to regain your power and access your inner motivation to win and achieve. (这种认知会为你重获力量并激发你内心追求胜利和成就的动力奠定基础。)”指出按本空处所说的内容做会带来什么好处，这表明本空处应是一句告诉人们如何摆脱受害者心态的具体做法。D项“改变你的思维模式，成为自己生活的胜利者。”能够衔接前后文，且其中的victor一词与前文中的victim一词形成呼应。故选D项。 38．前文“Your job is to pay attention. (你要做的就是引起注意。)”及后文“It could be sleep deprivation, or it could be a tendency to feel overly criticized by your boss. (它可能是睡眠不足，或你觉得被老板过度批评。)”说明，空处需要一句话既能表明需要引起注意的具体内容是什么，也就是使人们不能很好地进行自我控制的因素是什么，又能概括“睡眠不足”、“觉得被老板过度批评”这两个例子的共同特点。B项“是谁、或是什么让你感觉情绪化？”满足这一要求，能承上启下。故选B项。 39．后文“Either enlist friends or family members to join you or ask for their support to remind you of your long-term goals. (你可以邀请朋友或家人加入你，或者请求他们的支持，让他们提醒你长期目标。)”提到周围的人这个因素在自我控制中的重要作用。A项“找一些可靠的伙伴。”直接点明人这个因素，起到引领全段的作用。故选A项。 第三部分 书面表达（共两节，共32分） 第一节 阅读表达（共4小题，第40、41题各2分，第42题3分，第43题5分，共12分） 阅读下面短文，根据题目要求回答问题。 Salary is often an important consideration when applying for and choosing a job. People often weigh their financial needs against jobs that might fulfill their passions in different industries. Learning about these two factors to consider when pursuing a career can help you decide if one might be more important for your professional and personal life. A significant benefit of a high-paying job is that you’ll likely have more money for things you want and need. Because employers may distribute compensation differently, you may have more or less money at certain times of the year. Still, a job that pays well can help you afford necessities like house and car payments, food and utility bills. Aside from paying for usual wants and needs, a job with a high salary can provide you with extra monetary security in case of emergencies. If you have extra income from a high-paying job, you can put it into a savings account that can help cover surprise expenses, like a move to a new home or a new baby. You might also get additional benefits, like a pension or retirement account, that can prepare you for a secure future. In contrast, choosing a job you’re passionate about can increase your productivity. This benefits both you and your employer, as you may be more likely to get more work done in a shorter amount of time and generate positive outcomes while doing something you enjoy. Increased productivity can help you get promotions and new knowledge opportunities that may promote your career growth. People who work jobs they love are likely to have a greater sense of contentment and fulfillment. Since people spend much of their lives at work, some may find it essential to feel satisfaction from the responsibilities of their role because it makes them feel good about what they do and how they affect others. This type of happiness can increase overall well-being and encourage a person to stay in their job for a long time. If you’re considering a job that pays well instead of the one you love, think about how much time you’ll have to enjoy the expendable income you might receive. If you want to choose a job for which you’re passionate, consider how much money you’ll have to do things in your free time. 40．What factors do people often consider when looking for a job? 41．How will increased productivity help you? 42．Please decide which part is false in the following statement, then underline it and explain why. People can experience happiness because they spend much of their lives at work. 43．Apart from the factors mentioned in the passage, what else will you take into consideration when looking for a job? Why? (In about 40 words) 【答案】40．Salary and passion. 41．It can help you get promotions and new knowledge opportunities that may promote your career growth. 42．People can experience happiness because they spend much of their lives at work. Because they find satisfaction and fulfillment from their work. 43．I will also consider the work location. A convenient location can save commuting time and improve work-life balance. 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讨论了人们在申请和选择工作时通常会考虑的两个主要因素：薪资和兴趣，并详细分析了这两者的利弊。 40．考查细节理解。根据第一段中“Salary is often an important consideration when applying for and choosing a job. People often weigh their financial needs against jobs that might fulfill their passions in different industries. (在申请和选择工作时，薪水往往是一个重要的考虑因素。人们通常会在满足自己不同行业激情的工作与自己的经济需求之间进行权衡。)”可知，人们在找工作时经常考虑薪资和激情这两个因素。故答案为Salary and passion. 41．考查细节理解。根据第四段中“Increased productivity can help you get promotions and new knowledge opportunities that may promote your career growth. (提高生产力可以帮助你获得晋升和新知识的机会，这可能促进你的职业发展。)”可知，提高生产力可以获得晋升和新知识的机会，促进职业发展。故答案为It can help you get promotions and new knowledge opportunities that may promote your career growth. 42．考查细节理解。根据倒数第二段中People who work jobs they love are likely to have a greater sense of contentment and fulfillment. Since people spend much of their lives at work, some may find it essential to feel satisfaction from the responsibilities of their role because it makes them feel good about what they do and how they affect others. (做自己喜欢工作的人更有可能有更大的满足感和成就感。由于人们的大部分时间都花在工作上，一些人可能会觉得从工作的责任中获得满足感是至关重要的，因为这让他们对自己所做的事情以及自己对他人的影响感觉良好。)”可知，人们感到幸福并不是因为他们花了很多时间在工作上，而是因为他们从工作中找到了满足感和成就感。因此，“People can experience happiness because they spend much of their lives at work.”这句话中“because they spend much of their lives at work.”部分是错误的。故答案为People can experience happiness because they spend much of their lives at work. Because they find satisfaction and fulfillment from their work. 43．开放性试题。言之有理即可，注意词数限制。除了文章中提到的薪资和兴趣，人们在找工作时可能还会考虑工作地点、工作环境、公司规模、发展机会、公司文化等因素。例如：我还会考虑工作地点。一个方便的地点可以节省通勤时间，提高工作与生活的平衡。故答案为I will also consider the work location. A convenient location can save commuting time and improve work-life balance. 第二节: 书面表达（共一题，20分) 44．假设你是红星中学高二学生李华。你的外国笔友Jim要参加“文化北京”的研学活动，计划在寒假期间体验北京的历史文化，来信征求你的意见。请你给Jim回邮件，内容包括： 1.推荐一项体验活动； 2.简要说明理由。 注意：1. 词数100左右； 2.开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数。 Dear Jim, ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Hua 【答案】Dear Jim, I’m thrilled to hear about your upcoming “Cultural Beijing” study tour during the winter vacation!

Any challenging activity — from computer programming to playing a musical instrument to athletics — requires 1 practice. A perfect golf swing or faultless butterfly stroke (蝶泳) takes countless hours of practice and repetitions to perfect. Anyone who wants to have a good command of a skill must go through the 2 of practice, critical feedback, polish, and increasing improvement again, again, and again. Some people seem able to concentrate on practicing an activity like this for years and take pleasure in their gradual improvement. Yet others find this kind of focused, time-intensive work to be 3 or boring. Why? The distinction may depend on the ability to enter into a state of “flow,” the feeling of being completely involved in what you are doing. Flow states can happen in the course of any activity, and they are most common when a task has definite goals and where the individual is able to 4 their performance to clear and immediate feedback. Csikszentmihalyi suggested that those who most 5 entered into flow states had an “autotelic personality” — a tendency to seek out challenges and get into a state of flow. While those without such a personality see difficulties, autotelic individuals see opportunities to build skills and they have low levels of self-centeredness. Such people, with their ability to focus on tasks rather than rewards have a great 6 over others in developing their innate (天生的) abilities. But how can we get into flow state for an activity so that we enjoy both the process of improving skills and the 7 of being a master? Obviously for those of us who don’t necessarily possess an autotelic personality, there is evidence that flow states can be 8 by environmental factors. For instance, in Montessori schools, students do not study by following direct instruction. Instead, they are encouraged to develop and pursue personal interests. Competition is 9 and grading is not emphasized. Students are grouped together according to shared interests, rather than separated by ability. While there isn’t yet a pill that can turn dull practice into an exciting activity for anyone, it is comforting that we seem to be able to advance into flow states. By giving ourselves unstructured, open-ended time, minimum distractions and task set at moderate level of 10 , we may be able to love what we’re doing while we put in the hard work practicing the things we love doing. 1．A．fixed B．concentrated C．paralleled D．instructed 2．A．transformation B．substitute C．cycle D．condition 3．A．poisonous B．rewarding C．ignorant D．frustrating 4．A．apply B．devote C．adjust D．expose 5．A．deliberately B．readily C．hesitantly D．flexibly 6．A．feature B．control C．advantage D．sympathy 7．A．security B．jealousy C．reward D．contribution 8．A．cultivated B．extended C．influenced D．bridged 9．A．advocated B．suspended C．discouraged D．observed 10．A．priority B．difficulty C．curiosity D．identity 第二节 语法填空（共10小题，每小题1.5分,共15分） 阅读下列短文，根据短文内容填空，在未给提示词的空白处仅填写1个适当的单词，在给出提示词的空白处用括号内所给词的正确形式填空。 A When you take a walk in any of the cities in the West, you often see a lot of people 11 (walk) with dogs. It is still true that the dog is the most faithful animal in the world. But the reasons 12 people keep a dog have changed a lot. In the old days, people used to train dogs to protect themselves against the attacks 13 other beasts. Now people in the city keep dogs to protect themselves, but the most important reason is companionship.

I loved the outdoors, and it was more like play than work. I was thrilled when I could connect what I saw to what I read. My ideas seemed to flow like the stream I was trying to understand. When I started my first teaching position, I no longer had the freedom to focus purely on research or think deeply about any given topic. I was consumed by pressing management demands and my creative stream narrowed. A decade later, I moved to a new university and was able to return to the topic I studied for my Ph. D．research. I found that if I could be in the moment with my students and act as a sounding board for new ideas — and not be distracted by my mid-career responsibilities — then I could play a part in their creative thought process. Creativity crept back into my work life, but I hadn’t yet found a way to stimulate my own deep thinking. Another decade had passed before I learned how to get my own creative stream flowing again. After accepting a position in my hometown, I had a few months between jobs when I was as free as a bird. And that’s when my first real post-Ph. D．eureka moment (顿悟) struck, while I was at a gym watching the rain fall onto a lawn outside. I was able to visualize similar processes that I had been trying to understand. But it was even more thrilling because it was a type of thought that I worried had permanently dried up. It was clear that I needed to slow down and experience the rain more often! In this new job, I tried to heed (留心) this enlightenment. I made a point to think and write a little bit at home each morning, in a room overlooking the large river. After that, I’d cycle to work along the banks, which helped me process those ideas and remember my daily goal of being curious. Fun drove what I worked on. And soon enough, I had new ideas to bring to the table. I now encourage my students to disconnect and take time out to think, to play, to have fun with their research. And to make these things a permanent habit in their lives. I also tell them to pay attention to the conditions and places that foster their curiosity and ability to think deeply. By openly discussing creativity, I hope we can help the next generation of scientists avoid losing it along the way, as I did. 24．What situation did the author find himself in when he started the first teaching position? A．He lost interest in his research. B．He couldn’t think clearly anymore. C．He was not as creative as before. D．He was heavily demanded by students. 25．What can we know about the author after he moved to a new university? A．He helped students with their Ph. D．research. B．He discovered a new topic for his mid-career. C．He began to take on more career responsibilities. D．He engaged himself in students’ thinking process. 26．How did the author feel during his free time in his hometown? A．Energetic and proud. B．Inspired and refreshed. C．Thrilled and supported. D．Curious and adventurous. 27．What can we learn from the author’s experience? A．East or west, home is the best. B．Small streams make great rivers. C．Creativity is the mother of invention. D．All work no play makes Jack a dull boy. C When it was announced in 2018 that the Chinese Academy of Sciences in Shanghai had created the world’s first cloned monkeys, Zhongzhong and Huahua, heated discussions followed online. In fact, cloning has always been with us. It is a way of making an exact copy of another animal or plant. It happens in plants when gardeners take cuttings from growing plants to make new ones. It also happens in animals when identical twins are produced from the same egg. These are both examples of natural clones. Cloning has two major uses. First, gardeners use it to produce large quantities of plants for sale. Second, it is valuable for research on new plant species and for medical research on animals. Cloning plants is fairly straightforward, while cloning animals is much more complicated and difficult. Over the years, many scientists failed in their attempts to clone animals, but their determination and patience paid off in 1996 with a breakthrough—the cloning of Dolly the sheep. With the advances of scientific research, cloning will have several major uses, in the future. For one thing, it could be used to breed animal species which are endangered, or even bring back species which are now extinct. For another, it could be used to grow human organs or tissue in animals, which could be used for human organ transplants or medical treatments. Finally, cloning could be used to breed animals that will provide us with higher quality meat, milk, or eggs. While there are technical issues that need to be worked through to make widespread cloning possible, the biggest concerns are moral. For example, if scientists brought an extinct animal back into existence, it would probably end up living in a zoo. That is not very good for the animal. Even worse for the animal is using it as a source of organ transplants—because it will be injured or even die. In addition, many people worry that eating animal products that result from cloning might be harmful to our health over time. The possibility of using cloning to produce human beings is an even bigger concern. What would happen if such knowledge ended up in the wrong hands? When it comes to cloning, we wonder, ultimately, whether cloning will help or harm the world. No doubt, we will be talking about this question for a long time to come. 28．What can we learn about cloning? A．Cloned animals first appeared in 2018. B．Cloned plants are mainly used for medical research. C．Cloning technology can be used in the study of new plant species. D．Cloning plants is more complicated and difficult than cloning animals. 29．What is the main idea of Paragraph 3? A．Future uses of cloning. B．Scientific researches of cloning. C．The products provided by cloning. D．The medical treatments brought about by cloning, 30．What does the underlined word “moral” in Paragraph 4 refer to? A．Physical health. B．Technical development. C．Principle and belief. D．Knowledge and experience. 31．What’s the author’s attitude towards cloning? A．Supportive. B．Objective. C．Disapproving. D．Unconcerned. D Life, it could be argued, is like a long game of blackjack. In one common version of this, each person is dealt with two playing cards. The aim is for your hand to add to 21, or as close to this as you can get. Player can either “stick” with their existing hand or “twist”— asking to be dealt another card to add to their total. The risk, of course, is that you exceed 21 and are eliminated. This may sound far removed from everyday choices, but many of our most important life decisions boil down to such dilemmas. Should I stay put or take the leap and move house? Should I remain in my job or start my own business? The inherent uncertainty leaves many of us ending up staying in the status quo, never giving ourselves the chance to win big. Perhaps we can learn a trick from “maximisers”: individuals with a strong urge to find the optimal(最佳的)outcome for every situation. They would be more willing to”twist” if their current options aren’t working. And this approach to life certainly has some advantages. For example, among a sample of students looking for work, maximisers ended up getting a 20% higher salary compared with “satisficers”, people who tend to choose the first acceptable option. Nevertheless, in reality there are simply too many options to weigh up the pros and cons of every choice. Natural maximisers can feel so overwhelmed with the options, and they are troubled by the doubt that a superior option might be among those they did not evaluate. Perhaps as a consequence, they tend to suffer badly from feelings of regret and”fear of missing out”, which affects their overall life satisfaction. Fortunately, a technique appears to tackle the problem. The strategy is known as psychological distancing, which is akin to taking a fly-on-the-wall view of things. There are many ways to apply it. You might imagine you are advising a close friend in a similar dilemma, for example, or you could try to predict how you would view the decision and its consequences at some time in the mid-to-distant future. Previous research has shown that psychological distancing techniques contribute to greater intellectual humility, which encourages people to consider more sources of information before coming to a judgement. This approach can also help us deal with the consequences of our big decisions. When using psychological distancing techniques, people are better able to regulate their emotions— which we must do to process the choices we have made. In addition, discussing life’s disappointments from such a distanced perspective helps us extract meaning from our experiences. That should prevent you becoming immersed in the feelings of regret that can follow stick-or-twist decisions. As everyone knows, Lady Luck won’t work in your favour all the time, no matter how smart your decision making has been. Nevertheless, by applying this psychological research, you can make the most of your hand— and take greater pleasure in the thrill of the game. 32．The author mentions “maximisers” mainly to _______. A．highlight the advantages of maximisers B．bring out a sound way of making choices C．illustrate the difficulty of decision making D．emphasize the value of informed decisions 33．What can be inferred about psychological distancing? A．Intellectual humble people can optimize psychological distancing. B．The increased psychological distance may expose people to a feeling of regret. C．Increasing psychological distance assists in forming a proper view of negative moods. D．Emotional regulation is crucial in the application of psychological distancing techniques. 34．What can we learn from the passage? A．The first choice should be prioritized. B．Resolving a dilemma ensures the chance to win big. C．Stick-or-twist decisions are vital in reshaping people’s future. D．Looking at the bigger picture results in better decision making. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有项为多余选项。 Ways to Boost Your Self-Control Contrary to popular belief, self-control does not come along by denying yourself something or being “strict” with yourself. It is about loving yourself and developing new habits. 35 This is how you get there: Set clear goals so when it comes down to it, you can think first, act later. When you have knowledge that a greater reward is at stake (得失难料), you are going to have an easier time letting go of immediate satisfaction. Prioritize your list according to what you want to achieve in the future. 36 Motivate yourself to win and remember that life doesn’t happen to you, it happens for you. Anxiety arises from the belief that you are not in control of your life circumstances but are a victim of them. 37 That will set the stage for you to regain your power and access your inner motivation to win and achieve. Know your triggers (诱因) and control the stress response. Certain situations, people or even foods will cause your stress response to be triggered. Your job is to pay attention. 38 It could be sleep deprivation, or it could be a tendency to feel overly criticized by your boss. By knowing your triggers, you can either avoid them or develop ways to deal with them. 39 Either enlist friends or family members to join you or ask for their support to remind you of your long-term goals. The key here is that no one is allowed to criticize you or cause you to feel guilt or shame. Instead, they are to remind you to love yourself and help you get back on track when you slip up. A．Get some reliable partners. B．Who and what causes you to feel emotional? C．You should think twice to avoid possible mistakes. D．Change your mindset to being a victor of your life. E．It will help you follow your heart and improve your performance. F．In other words, it is a positive effort, not one of denial or negativity. G．When following this process, you will think twice before acting on a sudden urge. 第三部分 书面表达（共两节，共32分） 第一节 阅读表达（共4小题，第40、41题各2分，第42题3分，第43题5分，共12分） 阅读下面短文，根据题目要求回答问题。 Salary is often an important consideration when applying for and choosing a job. People often weigh their financial needs against jobs that might fulfill their passions in different industries. Learning about these two factors to consider when pursuing a career can help you decide if one might be more important for your professional and personal life. A significant benefit of a high-paying job is that you’ll likely have more money for things you want and need. Because employers may distribute compensation differently, you may have more or less money at certain times of the year. Still, a job that pays well can help you afford necessities like house and car payments, food and utility bills. Aside from paying for usual wants and needs, a job with a high salary can provide you with extra monetary security in case of emergencies. If you have extra income from a high-paying job, you can put it into a savings account that can help cover surprise expenses, like a move to a new home or a new baby. You might also get additional benefits, like a pension or retirement account, that can prepare you for a secure future. In contrast, choosing a job you’re passionate about can increase your productivity. This benefits both you and your employer, as you may be more likely to get more work done in a shorter amount of time and generate positive outcomes while doing something you enjoy. Increased productivity can help you get promotions and new knowledge opportunities that may promote your career growth. People who work jobs they love are likely to have a greater sense of contentment and fulfillment. Since people spend much of their lives at work, some may find it essential to feel satisfaction from the responsibilities of their role because it makes them feel good about what they do and how they affect others. This type of happiness can increase overall well-being and encourage a person to stay in their job for a long time. If you’re considering a job that pays well instead of the one you love, think about how much time you’ll have to enjoy the expendable income you might receive. If you want to choose a job for which you’re passionate, consider how much money you’ll have to do things in your free time. 40．What factors do people often consider when looking for a job? 41．How will increased productivity help you? 42．Please decide which part is false in the following statement, then underline it and explain why. People can experience happiness because they spend much of their lives at work. 43．Apart from the factors mentioned in the passage, what else will you take into consideration when looking for a job? Why?

Any challenging activity — from computer programming to playing a musical instrument to athletics — requires 1 practice. A perfect golf swing or faultless butterfly stroke (蝶泳) takes countless hours of practice and repetitions to perfect. Anyone who wants to have a good command of a skill must go through the 2 of practice, critical feedback, polish, and increasing improvement again, again, and again. Some people seem able to concentrate on practicing an activity like this for years and take pleasure in their gradual improvement. Yet others find this kind of focused, time-intensive work to be 3 or boring. Why? The distinction may depend on the ability to enter into a state of “flow,” the feeling of being completely involved in what you are doing. Flow states can happen in the course of any activity, and they are most common when a task has definite goals and where the individual is able to 4 their performance to clear and immediate feedback. Csikszentmihalyi suggested that those who most 5 entered into flow states had an “autotelic personality” — a tendency to seek out challenges and get into a state of flow. While those without such a personality see difficulties, autotelic individuals see opportunities to build skills and they have low levels of self-centeredness. Such people, with their ability to focus on tasks rather than rewards have a great 6 over others in developing their innate (天生的) abilities. But how can we get into flow state for an activity so that we enjoy both the process of improving skills and the 7 of being a master? Obviously for those of us who don’t necessarily possess an autotelic personality, there is evidence that flow states can be 8 by environmental factors. For instance, in Montessori schools, students do not study by following direct instruction. Instead, they are encouraged to develop and pursue personal interests. Competition is 9 and grading is not emphasized. Students are grouped together according to shared interests, rather than separated by ability. While there isn’t yet a pill that can turn dull practice into an exciting activity for anyone, it is comforting that we seem to be able to advance into flow states. By giving ourselves unstructured, open-ended time, minimum distractions and task set at moderate level of 10 , we may be able to love what we’re doing while we put in the hard work practicing the things we love doing. 1．A．fixed B．concentrated C．paralleled D．instructed 2．A．transformation B．substitute C．cycle D．condition 3．A．poisonous B．rewarding C．ignorant D．frustrating 4．A．apply B．devote C．adjust D．expose 5．A．deliberately B．readily C．hesitantly D．flexibly 6．A．feature B．control C．advantage D．sympathy 7．A．security B．jealousy C．reward D．contribution 8．A．cultivated B．extended C．influenced D．bridged 9．A．advocated B．suspended C．discouraged D．observed 10．A．priority B．difficulty C．curiosity D．identity 第二节 语法填空（共10小题，每小题1.5分,共15分） 阅读下列短文，根据短文内容填空，在未给提示词的空白处仅填写1个适当的单词，在给出提示词的空白处用括号内所给词的正确形式填空。 A When you take a walk in any of the cities in the West, you often see a lot of people 11 (walk) with dogs.

I loved the outdoors, and it was more like play than work. I was thrilled when I could connect what I saw to what I read. My ideas seemed to flow like the stream I was trying to understand. When I started my first teaching position, I no longer had the freedom to focus purely on research or think deeply about any given topic. I was consumed by pressing management demands and my creative stream narrowed. A decade later, I moved to a new university and was able to return to the topic I studied for my Ph. D．research. I found that if I could be in the moment with my students and act as a sounding board for new ideas — and not be distracted by my mid-career responsibilities — then I could play a part in their creative thought process. Creativity crept back into my work life, but I hadn’t yet found a way to stimulate my own deep thinking. Another decade had passed before I learned how to get my own creative stream flowing again. After accepting a position in my hometown, I had a few months between jobs when I was as free as a bird. And that’s when my first real post-Ph. D．eureka moment (顿悟) struck, while I was at a gym watching the rain fall onto a lawn outside. I was able to visualize similar processes that I had been trying to understand. But it was even more thrilling because it was a type of thought that I worried had permanently dried up. It was clear that I needed to slow down and experience the rain more often! In this new job, I tried to heed (留心) this enlightenment. I made a point to think and write a little bit at home each morning, in a room overlooking the large river. After that, I’d cycle to work along the banks, which helped me process those ideas and remember my daily goal of being curious. Fun drove what I worked on. And soon enough, I had new ideas to bring to the table. I now encourage my students to disconnect and take time out to think, to play, to have fun with their research. And to make these things a permanent habit in their lives. I also tell them to pay attention to the conditions and places that foster their curiosity and ability to think deeply. By openly discussing creativity, I hope we can help the next generation of scientists avoid losing it along the way, as I did. 24．What situation did the author find himself in when he started the first teaching position? A．He lost interest in his research. B．He couldn’t think clearly anymore. C．He was not as creative as before. D．He was heavily demanded by students. 25．What can we know about the author after he moved to a new university? A．He helped students with their Ph. D．research. B．He discovered a new topic for his mid-career. C．He began to take on more career responsibilities. D．He engaged himself in students’ thinking process. 26．How did the author feel during his free time in his hometown? A．Energetic and proud. B．Inspired and refreshed. C．Thrilled and supported. D．Curious and adventurous. 27．What can we learn from the author’s experience? A．East or west, home is the best. B．Small streams make great rivers. C．Creativity is the mother of invention. D．All work no play makes Jack a dull boy. C When it was announced in 2018 that the Chinese Academy of Sciences in Shanghai had created the world’s first cloned monkeys, Zhongzhong and Huahua, heated discussions followed online. In fact, cloning has always been with us. It is a way of making an exact copy of another animal or plant. It happens in plants when gardeners take cuttings from growing plants to make new ones. It also happens in animals when identical twins are produced from the same egg. These are both examples of natural clones. Cloning has two major uses. First, gardeners use it to produce large quantities of plants for sale. Second, it is valuable for research on new plant species and for medical research on animals. Cloning plants is fairly straightforward, while cloning animals is much more complicated and difficult. Over the years, many scientists failed in their attempts to clone animals, but their determination and patience paid off in 1996 with a breakthrough—the cloning of Dolly the sheep. With the advances of scientific research, cloning will have several major uses, in the future. For one thing, it could be used to breed animal species which are endangered, or even bring back species which are now extinct. For another, it could be used to grow human organs or tissue in animals, which could be used for human organ transplants or medical treatments. Finally, cloning could be used to breed animals that will provide us with higher quality meat, milk, or eggs. While there are technical issues that need to be worked through to make widespread cloning possible, the biggest concerns are moral. For example, if scientists brought an extinct animal back into existence, it would probably end up living in a zoo. That is not very good for the animal. Even worse for the animal is using it as a source of organ transplants—because it will be injured or even die. In addition, many people worry that eating animal products that result from cloning might be harmful to our health over time. The possibility of using cloning to produce human beings is an even bigger concern. What would happen if such knowledge ended up in the wrong hands? When it comes to cloning, we wonder, ultimately, whether cloning will help or harm the world. No doubt, we will be talking about this question for a long time to come. 28．What can we learn about cloning? A．Cloned animals first appeared in 2018. B．Cloned plants are mainly used for medical research. C．Cloning technology can be used in the study of new plant species. D．Cloning plants is more complicated and difficult than cloning animals. 29．What is the main idea of Paragraph 3? A．Future uses of cloning. B．Scientific researches of cloning. C．The products provided by cloning. D．The medical treatments brought about by cloning, 30．What does the underlined word “moral” in Paragraph 4 refer to? A．Physical health. B．Technical development. C．Principle and belief. D．Knowledge and experience. 31．What’s the author’s attitude towards cloning? A．Supportive. B．Objective. C．Disapproving. D．Unconcerned. D Life, it could be argued, is like a long game of blackjack. In one common version of this, each person is dealt with two playing cards. The aim is for your hand to add to 21, or as close to this as you can get. Player can either “stick” with their existing hand or “twist”— asking to be dealt another card to add to their total. The risk, of course, is that you exceed 21 and are eliminated. This may sound far removed from everyday choices, but many of our most important life decisions boil down to such dilemmas. Should I stay put or take the leap and move house? Should I remain in my job or start my own business? The inherent uncertainty leaves many of us ending up staying in the status quo, never giving ourselves the chance to win big. Perhaps we can learn a trick from “maximisers”: individuals with a strong urge to find the optimal(最佳的)outcome for every situation. They would be more willing to”twist” if their current options aren’t working. And this approach to life certainly has some advantages. For example, among a sample of students looking for work, maximisers ended up getting a 20% higher salary compared with “satisficers”, people who tend to choose the first acceptable option. Nevertheless, in reality there are simply too many options to weigh up the pros and cons of every choice. Natural maximisers can feel so overwhelmed with the options, and they are troubled by the doubt that a superior option might be among those they did not evaluate. Perhaps as a consequence, they tend to suffer badly from feelings of regret and”fear of missing out”, which affects their overall life satisfaction. Fortunately, a technique appears to tackle the problem. The strategy is known as psychological distancing, which is akin to taking a fly-on-the-wall view of things. There are many ways to apply it. You might imagine you are advising a close friend in a similar dilemma, for example, or you could try to predict how you would view the decision and its consequences at some time in the mid-to-distant future. Previous research has shown that psychological distancing techniques contribute to greater intellectual humility, which encourages people to consider more sources of information before coming to a judgement. This approach can also help us deal with the consequences of our big decisions. When using psychological distancing techniques, people are better able to regulate their emotions— which we must do to process the choices we have made. In addition, discussing life’s disappointments from such a distanced perspective helps us extract meaning from our experiences. That should prevent you becoming immersed in the feelings of regret that can follow stick-or-twist decisions. As everyone knows, Lady Luck won’t work in your favour all the time, no matter how smart your decision making has been. Nevertheless, by applying this psychological research, you can make the most of your hand— and take greater pleasure in the thrill of the game. 32．The author mentions “maximisers” mainly to _______. A．highlight the advantages of maximisers B．bring out a sound way of making choices C．illustrate the difficulty of decision making D．emphasize the value of informed decisions 33．What can be inferred about psychological distancing? A．Intellectual humble people can optimize psychological distancing. B．The increased psychological distance may expose people to a feeling of regret. C．Increasing psychological distance assists in forming a proper view of negative moods. D．Emotional regulation is crucial in the application of psychological distancing techniques. 34．What can we learn from the passage? A．The first choice should be prioritized.

It is about loving yourself and developing new habits. 35 This is how you get there: Set clear goals so when it comes down to it, you can think first, act later. When you have knowledge that a greater reward is at stake (得失难料), you are going to have an easier time letting go of immediate satisfaction. Prioritize your list according to what you want to achieve in the future. 36 Motivate yourself to win and remember that life doesn’t happen to you, it happens for you. Anxiety arises from the belief that you are not in control of your life circumstances but are a victim of them. 37 That will set the stage for you to regain your power and access your inner motivation to win and achieve. Know your triggers (诱因) and control the stress response. Certain situations, people or even foods will cause your stress response to be triggered. Your job is to pay attention. 38 It could be sleep deprivation, or it could be a tendency to feel overly criticized by your boss. By knowing your triggers, you can either avoid them or develop ways to deal with them. 39 Either enlist friends or family members to join you or ask for their support to remind you of your long-term goals. The key here is that no one is allowed to criticize you or cause you to feel guilt or shame. Instead, they are to remind you to love yourself and help you get back on track when you slip up. A．Get some reliable partners. B．Who and what causes you to feel emotional? C．You should think twice to avoid possible mistakes. D．Change your mindset to being a victor of your life. E．It will help you follow your heart and improve your performance. F．In other words, it is a positive effort, not one of denial or negativity. G．When following this process, you will think twice before acting on a sudden urge. 第三部分 书面表达（共两节，共32分） 第一节 阅读表达（共4小题，第40、41题各2分，第42题3分，第43题5分，共12分） 阅读下面短文，根据题目要求回答问题。 Salary is often an important consideration when applying for and choosing a job. People often weigh their financial needs against jobs that might fulfill their passions in different industries. Learning about these two factors to consider when pursuing a career can help you decide if one might be more important for your professional and personal life. A significant benefit of a high-paying job is that you’ll likely have more money for things you want and need. Because employers may distribute compensation differently, you may have more or less money at certain times of the year. Still, a job that pays well can help you afford necessities like house and car payments, food and utility bills. Aside from paying for usual wants and needs, a job with a high salary can provide you with extra monetary security in case of emergencies. If you have extra income from a high-paying job, you can put it into a savings account that can help cover surprise expenses, like a move to a new home or a new baby. You might also get additional benefits, like a pension or retirement account, that can prepare you for a secure future. In contrast, choosing a job you’re passionate about can increase your productivity. This benefits both you and your employer, as you may be more likely to get more work done in a shorter amount of time and generate positive outcomes while doing something you enjoy. Increased productivity can help you get promotions and new knowledge opportunities that may promote your career growth. People who work jobs they love are likely to have a greater sense of contentment and fulfillment. Since people spend much of their lives at work, some may find it essential to feel satisfaction from the responsibilities of their role because it makes them feel good about what they do and how they affect others. This type of happiness can increase overall well-being and encourage a person to stay in their job for a long time. If you’re considering a job that pays well instead of the one you love, think about how much time you’ll have to enjoy the expendable income you might receive. If you want to choose a job for which you’re passionate, consider how much money you’ll have to do things in your free time. 40．What factors do people often consider when looking for a job? 41．How will increased productivity help you? 42．Please decide which part is false in the following statement, then underline it and explain why. People can experience happiness because they spend much of their lives at work. 43．Apart from the factors mentioned in the passage, what else will you take into consideration when looking for a job? Why?

I highly recommend that you participate in a temple visit and calligraphy workshop at the Temple of Heaven. This recommendation stems from the temple’s profound historical significance as a place where ancient emperors worshipped Heaven for good harvests. Moreover, the calligraphy workshops there allow you to immerse yourself in traditional Chinese art, learning firsthand about brush strokes and character structure. It’s a fantastic way to combine history with hands-on cultural experience. I’m sure this activity will enrich your understanding of Beijing’s heritage. Looking forward to hearing about your adventures!
