The mainland boasts (拥有) well-maintained routes, while on the country’s islands you’ll find ancient paths dating back to Byzantine times connecting sleepy villages with beautiful sandy coves (小海湾). Here’s our pick of Greece’s best hikes.  Samaria Gorge (峡谷), Crete 16 kilometers(10 miles), 4 hours Hiking the 16-kilometer Samaria Gorge is considered one of Crete’s must-do experiences, which is why you’ll rarely be without company. Nevertheless, there’s an undeniable raw beauty to Samaria, where vertical (垂直的) walls soar up to 500 meters and are just 3.5 meters apart at the narrowest point (150 meters at the broadest). The hike begins at 1,230 meters at Xyloskalo just south of Omalos and ends in the coastal village of Agia Roumeli. It’s especially scenic in April and May, when wildflowers brighten the route.  Mt Ohi summit hike Evia 8 kilometers (5 miles), 3 to 4 hours The summit of Mt Ohi (Profitis Ilias; 1,398 m), lesser-visited Evia’s third-highest peak, is crowned by mysterious ancient dragon houses: 7th century BC architecture, made from rocks weighing several tons. From Myli, it’s an 8-kilometer hike to the summit (three to four hours). It’s possible to stay overnight at the 1,000-meter-high refuge then hike up Mt Ohi to catch the sunrise(30 minutes), which makes for a magical experience. Contact South Evia Tours or Evia Adventure Tours for details.  Delphi to Kirra Walk, Central Greece 14 kilometers (9 miles), 3 to 4 hours This 14-kilometer downhill hike follows a centuries-old pathway from historic Delphi to the ancient port of Kirra, just east of modern Itea on the southern coast of mainland Greece. The hike starts from the E4 long-distance starting point 100 meters east of the Hotel Acropole. Skirting the village of Crissa, it goes to the gulf (海湾) through Greece’s largest olive garden. After your three-to-four-hour hike, and lunch or a swim, you can return to Delphi by bus (around 2 euros).  Hike to the Tomb of Kleobolus, Rhodes 5 kilometers (3 miles), 2 hours An easy, enjoyable 5-kilometer (two-hour) round-trip hike escapes Lindos to reach the so-called Tomb of Kleobolus. Starting alongside Car Park 1 above the main beach, the route ends at a rocky hill topped by a circular tomb actually built during the 2nd century BC, long after Kleobolus ruled Rhodes. (408) 36.

In the process, she created an Instagram page called “Elikutty” through which she now teaches Malayalam to thousands of people. “I always loved hearing people speak different languages, but when my mother from Serbia spoke Serbian at home, my father showed no interest in learning it, leaving frequent misunderstanding and communicating problems. That’s when I decided that if I met someone from a different culture, I would try to learn his language, which would be good for us and our family,” says Elizabeth to The Better India. “So when my relationship with Arjun started looking serious because of difficulties in communicating, I decided to learn Malayalam. However, I found that there weren’t enough resources to learn the language. Most books available were outdated or made for children. A small amount of material was often too difficult for casual (非正式的) language learners like me,” says the 35-year-old. “Later, I struggled to find a teacher suited to my needs and some grammar resources online.” As an English teacher, Elizabeth used her teaching skills to learn Malayalam. She wrote notes and made doodles (涂鸦) to learn the letters. “For me, the best way to learn is by explaining it to someone else, so I made an Instagram page in 2018 to share my notes and small drawings,” she says. Starting out with 1,000 followers in 2018, her Instagram page has over 70,000 followers today. She is pleased to make learning Malayalam fun and easy. “I have seen what happens when languages are ignored in my own house. My brother doesn’t know Serbian, which means his family won’t. It’s important to know English as it is a global language and helps when you go abroad, but the same respect should be given to native languages. They are the true way to a person’s heart.” says Elizabeth.(333) 41. Why did Elizabeth decide to learn Malayalam? A. To build a foundation for her career. B. To improve her relationship with Arjun. C. To better communicate with her mother. D. To satisfy her interest in foreign languages. 42. What difficulty did Elizabeth meet during her learning? A. Rejection from her husband. B. Failure to find a native partner. C. Lack of suitable learning resources. D. Inability to find a professional teacher. 43. What was Elizabeth’s Instagram. page used to do at first? A. Collect learning tips. B. Help her in self-study. C. Practice small drawings. D. Teach others Malayalam. 44. What is Elizabeth’s opinion on language learning? A. Using social media as the primary tool. B. Respecting our inner thinking at all times. C. Always putting the family’s common language first. D. Treating official languages and mother tongues equally. 45. What is the main purpose of this passage? A. To advertise Elizabeth’s Instagram page B.

But have you ever wondered about its effect on our memory? Well, a recent study from University College London has some interesting findings. The researchers discovered that 30 minutes of moderate to vigorous physical activity, along with at least six hours of sleep at night, could potentially lead to an improvement in cognitive performance the following day. This means that activities like cycling to work or going for a brisk walk in the morning might not only make you feel good for the day but also have a positive impact on your memory the next day. Previous studies on the short-term effects of physical activity were mostly done in laboratories and focused on short time frames. However, this new study observed the real-life physical activity of 76 adults aged 50 — 83, who did not have cognitive impairment or dementia. These participants wore an accelerometer for eight days to track their sleep and physical activity. They also took simple online cognitive tests daily to measure their attention, memory, and processing speed. The results showed that each 30-minute increase in physical activity corresponded to a 2% — 5% increase in episodic and working memory scores the next day. But when sleep data was considered, only the working memory score improvement remained significant. The study also found that more sedentary behavior was associated with a drop in working memory scores, while getting enough sleep led to better scores in episodic memory and other aspects. Despite these findings, the study had its limitations. The participants were generally well-educated and had good health and high levels of daily physical activity, which might not represent the entire population. Also, the exact reason why exercise affects memory the next day is still unclear, as the benefits from neurotransmitters are thought to be short-lived. In conclusion, while we still have more to learn, this study suggests that staying active and getting enough sleep could be beneficial for our brain health and memory. So, let’s put on our running shoes and hit the sack early to give our brains a boost!(362) 46. What did the University College London study find? A. Any amount of exercise improves memory immediately. B. Thirty minutes of exercise and proper sleep may enhance next-day cognitive ability. C. Only intense exercise affects memory. D. Sleep has no connection to memory improvement. 47. How was this study different from previous ones? A. It involved a larger number of participants. B. It focused only on the long-term effects. C. It only studied younger people. D. It was based on real-life activity tracking. 48. What were the participants asked to do in the study? A. Exercise for a fixed time every day. B. Wear a device and do cognitive tests. C. Change their diet drastically. D. Avoid all sedentary activities. 49. What are the limitations of the study? A The participants were all athletes. B. It didn’t consider the role of diet. C. The participants had specific characteristics. D. It was too expensive to conduct. 50. What is the main purpose of the last paragraph? A. To suggest practical applications of the findings. B. To criticize the study's limitations. C. To propose directions for future research. D. To explain the physiological mechanisms. 【答案】46. B 47.

But what does that leave out? As a social psychologist, I have dedicated my research career to a simple, but universal question: what makes for a good life, and how can we achieve it? For much of human history, we have been presented with two possibilities: pursuing a life of happiness, or a life of meaning. Each of these paths has its benefits, but decades of psychological research have also revealed their limits. Ask the Danes and Finns, who consistently rank among the happiest people in the world, what their secret is and they’ll tell you this: lower your expectations and be content with what you have. It sounds good, doesn’t it? But it leaves something out. It’s a bit like being a college student who only takes easy courses to be sure of getting good grades. Might there be more to life than simple pleasures and cozy comfort? Then there’s the meaningful life. We often imagine that meaning flows from trying to change the world like Steve Jobs. Once again, the research shows that lowering your sights and focusing on the little things can offer a more achievable sense of meaning. Often people find it in routines like taking care of family, or volunteering in the community. But there is also a dark side to the pursuit of meaning: researchers have found that it can encourage people to draw sharp lines between those who belong in their group and those who don’t. My research lab mapped out a third route to fulfillment: psychological richness. A psychologically rich life is one filled with diverse, unusual and interesting experiences that change your perspective; a life with twists and turns; a life that feels like a long, winding hike rather than many laps of the same racing circuit. Such experiences can make us tougher. Not only that, embracing the pursuit of psychological richness can make us less likely to regret: it matters less if the thing you did went wrong. Perhaps no one said it better than Eleanor Roosevelt: “The purpose of life, after all, is to live it, to taste experience to the utmost, to reach out eagerly and without fear .”(363) 51. What is the main purpose of the first paragraph? A. To introduce the author’s professional background and research focus B. To criticize traditional views on happiness C. To present statistical data on life satisfaction D. To compare Eastern and Western philosophies 52. What is revealed about pursuing happiness or meaning? A. Their benefits outweigh the limits. B. They are equally difficult to achieve. C. Both paths have limits despite their benefits. D. Most people prioritize happiness over meaning. 53. What does the example of “a college student” show in paragraph 3? A. Gratitude is essential for a happy life. B. We should live up to others’ expectations. C. Happiness requires academic achievement. D. Life means more than leisure and comfort. 54. What can be inferred from paragraph 4 about the pursuit of meaning? A. Its negative effect might weaken social unity in the long run. B. It is more achievable through grand ambitions than small actions. C. Volunteering is the most effective way to gain a sense of meaning. D. People who pursue meaning often neglect their family responsibilities. 55. What is the author’s main purpose in writing this article? A. To promote Roosevelt’s life philosophy. B. To introduce a new concept of life fulfillment. C. To criticize traditional psychological research. D. To compare different cultural views on happiness. 【答案】51. A 52. C 53. D 54. A 55. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。主要探讨“美好生活”的实现路径，在传统的幸福生活、有意义的生活之外，提出“心理富足的生活”这一全新理念并阐释其内涵。 【51题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“As a social psychologist, I have dedicated my research career to a simple, but universal question: what makes for a good life, and how can we achieve it?(作为一名社会心理学家，我将我的研究生涯致力于一个简单但普遍的问题：什么构成了美好的生活，我们如何才能实现它？)”可知，第一段主要介绍了作者的职业背景和研究重点，即探索美好生活的构成及实现方式。故选A项。 【52题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Each of these paths has its benefits, but decades of psychological research have also revealed their limits.(这两条道路中的每一条都有其好处，但数十年的心理学研究也揭示了它们的局限性。)”可知，追求幸福或意义的道路，尽管各有好处，但都存在局限性。故选C项。 【53题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“It’s a bit like being a college student who only takes easy courses to be sure of getting good grades. Might there be more to life than simple pleasures and cozy comfort?(这有点像一个大学生只选容易的课程来确保取得好成绩。生活难道不应该比简单的快乐和舒适的安逸更有意义吗？)”可知，作者用“大学生只选易课”的例子，是为了引出后文的反问，说明生活的意义不止于休闲和舒适。故选D项。 【54题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“But there is also a dark side to the pursuit of meaning: researchers have found that it can encourage people to draw sharp lines between those who belong in their group and those who don’t.(但追求意义也有其阴暗面：研究人员发现，它会鼓励人们在属于自己群体的人和不属于自己群体的人之间划清界限。)”可知，追求意义可能导致人们划分群体界限，长期来看可能削弱社会凝聚力。故选A项。 【55题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段中的“My research lab mapped out a third route to fulfillment: psychological richness.(我的研究实验室规划了实现满足感的第三条路径：心理富足。)”及全文围绕传统的两种生活路径展开论述，最终提出“心理富足的生活”这一全新理念可知，作者写这篇文章的主要目的是介绍一种新的生活满足感理念。故选B项。 第一节 阅读表达（共5小题； 每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读短文，按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 Alice Moore is a teenager entrepreneur (创业者), who in May 2015 set up her business AilieCandy. By the time she was 13, her company was worth millions of dollars with the invention of a super-sweet treat that could save kids’ teeth, instead of destroying them. It all began when Moore visited a bank with her dad. On the outing, she was offered a candy bar. However, her dad reminded her that sugary treats were bad for her teeth. But Moore was sick of missing out on candies. So she desired to get round the warning, “Why can’t I make a healthy candy that’s good for my teeth so that my parents can’t say no to it?” With that in mind, Moore asked her dad if she could start her own candy company. He recommended that she do some research and talk to dentists about what a healthier candy would contain. With her dad’s permission, she spent the next two years researching online and conducting trials to get a recipe that was both tasty and tooth-friendly. She also approached dentists to learn more about teeth cleaning. Consequently, she succeeded in making a kind of candy only using natural sweeteners, which can reduce oral bacteria. Moore then used her savings to get her business off the ground. Afterwards, she and her father secured their first business meeting with a supermarket owner, who finally agreed to sell Moore’s product — CanCandy. As CanCandy’s success grows, so does Moore’s credibility as a young entrepreneur. Moore is enthusiastic about the candy she created, and she’s also positive about what the future might bring. She hopes that every kid can have a clean mouth and a broad smile. Meanwhile, with her parents’ help, Moore is generally able to live a normal teenage life. Although she founded her company early on in life, she wasn’t driven primarily by profit. Moore wants to use her unique talent to help others find their smiles. She donates 10% of AilicCandy’s profits to Big Smiles. With her talent and determination, it appears that the sky could be the limit for Alice Moore. 56. How did Moore react to her dad’s warning? (No more than 10 words) ________________________________________________________________ 57. What is special about CanCandy? (No more than 10 words) ________________________________________________________________ 58. What does Moore expect from her business? (No more than 10 words) ________________________________________________________________ 59. How do you understand the underlined part in the last paragraph? (no more than 5 words) ________________________________________________________________ 60. How does Moore’s story inspire you to achieve success? Put it in your own words. (No more than 20 words) ________________________________________________________________ 【答案】56. She desired to get round the warning. 57. It uses natural sweeteners, which can reduce oral bacteria. 58. To help others find smiles. 59. Anything could be possible. 60. We should have positive thinking and take actions to try what we think right, which can result in success. 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了摩尔的创业故事，她之所以能成功，源于她面对问题时乐观地看待问题，积极地想方设法去解决问题。因此，通过她的故事让我们懂得积极的思考和行动会带来成功。 【56题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“On the outing, she was offered a candy bar. However, her dad reminded her that sugary treats were bad for her teeth. But Moore was sick of missing out on candies. So she desired to get round the warning,(外出时，有人给了她一块糖果。然而，她爸爸提醒她，甜食对她的牙齿不好。但摩尔厌倦了错过糖果。所以她想避开这个警告)”可知，摩尔对她父亲的警告的反应是：她想避开这个警告。故答案为：She desired to get round the warning. 【57题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“With her dad’s permission, she spent the next two years researching online and conducting trials to get a recipe that was both tasty and tooth-friendly. She also approached dentists to learn more about teeth cleaning. Consequently, she succeeded in making a kind of candy only using natural sweeteners, which can reduce oral bacteria.(在父亲的允许下，她花了两年时间在网上进行研究，并进行试验，以找到一种既美味又对牙齿无害的食谱。她还找牙医学习更多关于清洁牙齿的知识。因此，她成功地制作了一种只使用天然甜味剂的糖果，这种甜味剂可以减少口腔细菌。)”可知，CanCandy的特殊之处在于它使用天然甜味剂的糖果，这种甜味剂可以减少口腔细菌。故答案为：It uses natural sweeteners, which can reduce oral bacteria. 【58题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“Meanwhile, with her parents’ help, Moore is generally able to live a normal teenage life. Although she founded her company early on in life, she wasn’t driven primarily by profit. Moore wants to use her unique talent to help others find their smiles.(与此同时，在父母的帮助下，摩尔基本上能够过正常的青少年生活。虽然她很早就创立了自己的公司，但她的主要动机并不是利润。摩尔想用她独特的才能来帮助别人找到他们的微笑)”可知，摩尔对她的生意的期望是帮助别人微笑。故答案为：To help others find smiles. 【59题详解】 词句猜测题。根据最后一段“With her talent and determination(凭借她的才华和决心)”并结合上文讲述爱丽丝通过自己的天赋和努力发明CanCandy可知，此处指凭借她的天赋和决心，对艾丽丝来说一切皆是可能的，故画线词的意思是“一切皆有可能”。故答案为：Anything could be possible. 【60题详解】 开放性试题。文章主要讲述了主人公摩尔和父亲从银行出来时，有人给了她一块糖果。然而，父亲提醒她，甜食对她的牙齿有害。但是摩尔不想错过糖果，于是有了发明一种对牙齿有益的糖果的想法。经过努力，她的公司发明了一种超级糖果，最终获得成功，这种糖果可以挽救孩子们的牙齿，而不是毁掉他们的牙齿。所以“摩尔的故事是如何激励你取得成功的?”可以回答为：我们应该有积极的想法，并采取行动去尝试我们认为正确的事情，这可以导致成功。故答案为：We should have positive thinking and take actions to try what we think right, which can result in success. 第二节：书面表达（共25分） 61. 英语课要求做课堂展示，请你根据所给图片，以Development of Transport in China为题写一篇发言稿。 注意： 1. 词数不少于100； 2. 可以适当加入细节，以使内容充实，行文连贯。 ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Development of Transport in China From the vehicle of horses to today’s convenient transport, Chinese transport has seen enormous development.

The mainland boasts (拥有) well-maintained routes, while on the country’s islands you’ll find ancient paths dating back to Byzantine times connecting sleepy villages with beautiful sandy coves (小海湾). Here’s our pick of Greece’s best hikes.  Samaria Gorge (峡谷), Crete 16 kilometers(10 miles), 4 hours Hiking the 16-kilometer Samaria Gorge is considered one of Crete’s must-do experiences, which is why you’ll rarely be without company. Nevertheless, there’s an undeniable raw beauty to Samaria, where vertical (垂直的) walls soar up to 500 meters and are just 3.5 meters apart at the narrowest point (150 meters at the broadest). The hike begins at 1,230 meters at Xyloskalo just south of Omalos and ends in the coastal village of Agia Roumeli. It’s especially scenic in April and May, when wildflowers brighten the route.  Mt Ohi summit hike, Evia 8 kilometers (5 miles), 3 to 4 hours The summit of Mt Ohi (Profitis Ilias; 1,398 m), lesser-visited Evia’s third-highest peak, is crowned by mysterious ancient dragon houses: 7th century BC architecture, made from rocks weighing several tons. From Myli, it’s an 8-kilometer hike to the summit (three to four hours). It’s possible to stay overnight at the 1,000-meter-high refuge then hike up Mt Ohi to catch the sunrise(30 minutes), which makes for a magical experience. Contact South Evia Tours or Evia Adventure Tours for details.  Delphi to Kirra Walk, Central Greece 14 kilometers (9 miles), 3 to 4 hours This 14-kilometer downhill hike follows a centuries-old pathway from historic Delphi to the ancient port of Kirra, just east of modern Itea on the southern coast of mainland Greece. The hike starts from the E4 long-distance starting point 100 meters east of the Hotel Acropole. Skirting the village of Crissa, it goes to the gulf (海湾) through Greece’s largest olive garden. After your three-to-four-hour hike, and lunch or a swim, you can return to Delphi by bus (around 2 euros).  Hike to the Tomb of Kleobolus, Rhodes 5 kilometers (3 miles), 2 hours An easy, enjoyable 5-kilometer (two-hour) round-trip hike escapes Lindos to reach the so-called Tomb of Kleobolus. Starting alongside Car Park 1 above the main beach, the route ends at a rocky hill topped by a circular tomb actually built during the 2nd century BC, long after Kleobolus ruled Rhodes. (408) 36. What is the raw beauty of Samaria? A. High and narrow gorges. B. Magical sunset. C. Wildflowers throughout the year. D. Mysterious large rocks. 37. What will visitors see during the Mt Ohi summit hike, Evia? A. Ancient buildings. B. Evia’s highest peak. C. A circular tomb. D. Greece’s largest olive garden. 38. What can we learn about the Delphi to Kirra Walk? A. It lets visitors experience the modern world of Greece. B. Visitors are recommended to get back to Delphi by ship. C. The route connects two places with a long history. D. It is a challenging route through a rocky hill. 39. What is true about the Tomb of Kleobolus? A. It was built during Kleobolus' rule. B. It's located in a sleepy village. C. It was actually built long after Kleobolus' time. D. It's the most famous historical site in Rhodes. 40. What is the main purpose of this passage? A. To compare different hiking routes in Greece B. To introduce the history of Greek architecture C. To explain the best seasons for hiking in Greece D. To recommend several hiking routes in Greece B Elizabeth Keyton, originally from Georgia, the USA, married Arjun, a Malayali. She wanted to learn his mother tongue to strengthen their family bond. In the process, she created an Instagram page called “Elikutty” through which she now teaches Malayalam to thousands of people. “I always loved hearing people speak different languages, but when my mother from Serbia spoke Serbian at home, my father showed no interest in learning it, leaving frequent misunderstanding and communicating problems. That’s when I decided that if I met someone from a different culture, I would try to learn his language, which would be good for us and our family,” says Elizabeth to The Better India. “So when my relationship with Arjun started looking serious because of difficulties in communicating, I decided to learn Malayalam. However, I found that there weren’t enough resources to learn the language. Most books available were outdated or made for children. A small amount of material was often too difficult for casual (非正式的) language learners like me,” says the 35-year-old. “Later, I struggled to find a teacher suited to my needs and some grammar resources online.” As an English teacher, Elizabeth used her teaching skills to learn Malayalam. She wrote notes and made doodles (涂鸦) to learn the letters. “For me, the best way to learn is by explaining it to someone else, so I made an Instagram page in 2018 to share my notes and small drawings,” she says. Starting out with 1,000 followers in 2018, her Instagram page has over 70,000 followers today. She is pleased to make learning Malayalam fun and easy. “I have seen what happens when languages are ignored in my own house. My brother doesn’t know Serbian, which means his family won’t. It’s important to know English as it is a global language and helps when you go abroad, but the same respect should be given to native languages. They are the true way to a person’s heart.” says Elizabeth.(333) 41. Why did Elizabeth decide to learn Malayalam? A. To build a foundation for her career. B. To improve her relationship with Arjun. C. To better communicate with her mother. D. To satisfy her interest in foreign languages. 42. What difficulty did Elizabeth meet during her learning? A. Rejection from her husband. B. Failure to find a native partner. C. Lack of suitable learning resources. D. Inability to find a professional teacher. 43. What was Elizabeth’s Instagram. page used to do at first? A. Collect learning tips. B. Help her in self-study. C. Practice small drawings. D. Teach others Malayalam. 44. What is Elizabeth’s opinion on language learning? A. Using social media as the primary tool. B. Respecting our inner thinking at all times. C Always putting the family’s common language first. D. Treating official languages and mother tongues equally. 45. What is the main purpose of this passage? A. To advertise Elizabeth’s Instagram page B. To discuss the difficulties of learning Malayalam C. To tell a story about how language learning strengthened family bonds D. To compare different methods of language learning C In our daily lives, we often hear about the benefits of exercise for our physical health. But have you ever wondered about its effect on our memory? Well, a recent study from University College London has some interesting findings. The researchers discovered that 30 minutes of moderate to vigorous physical activity, along with at least six hours of sleep at night, could potentially lead to an improvement in cognitive performance the following day. This means that activities like cycling to work or going for a brisk walk in the morning might not only make you feel good for the day but also have a positive impact on your memory the next day. Previous studies on the short-term effects of physical activity were mostly done in laboratories and focused on short time frames. However, this new study observed the real-life physical activity of 76 adults aged 50 — 83, who did not have cognitive impairment or dementia. These participants wore an accelerometer for eight days to track their sleep and physical activity. They also took simple online cognitive tests daily to measure their attention, memory, and processing speed. The results showed that each 30-minute increase in physical activity corresponded to a 2% — 5% increase in episodic and working memory scores the next day. But when sleep data was considered, only the working memory score improvement remained significant. The study also found that more sedentary behavior was associated with a drop in working memory scores, while getting enough sleep led to better scores in episodic memory and other aspects. Despite these findings, the study had its limitations. The participants were generally well-educated and had good health and high levels of daily physical activity, which might not represent the entire population. Also, the exact reason why exercise affects memory the next day is still unclear, as the benefits from neurotransmitters are thought to be short-lived. In conclusion, while we still have more to learn, this study suggests that staying active and getting enough sleep could be beneficial for our brain health and memory. So, let’s put on our running shoes and hit the sack early to give our brains a boost!(362) 46. What did the University College London study find? A. Any amount of exercise improves memory immediately. B. Thirty minutes of exercise and proper sleep may enhance next-day cognitive ability. C. Only intense exercise affects memory. D. Sleep has no connection to memory improvement. 47. How was this study different from previous ones? A. It involved a larger number of participants. B. It focused only on the long-term effects. C. It only studied younger people. D. It was based on real-life activity tracking. 48. What were the participants asked to do in the study? A. Exercise for a fixed time every day. B. Wear a device and do cognitive tests. C. Change their diet drastically. D. Avoid all sedentary activities. 49. What are the limitations of the study? A. The participants were all athletes. B. It didn’t consider the role of diet. C. The participants had specific characteristics. D. It was too expensive to conduct. 50. What is the main purpose of the last paragraph? A. To suggest practical applications of the findings. B. To criticize the study's limitations. C. To propose directions for future research. D. To explain the physiological mechanisms. D For centuries, we’ve pursued happiness and meaning. But what does that leave out? As a social psychologist, I have dedicated my research career to a simple, but universal question: what makes for a good life, and how can we achieve it? For much of human history, we have been presented with two possibilities: pursuing a life of happiness, or a life of meaning. Each of these paths has its benefits, but decades of psychological research have also revealed their limits. Ask the Danes and Finns, who consistently rank among the happiest people in the world, what their secret is and they’ll tell you this: lower your expectations and be content with what you have. It sounds good, doesn’t it? But it leaves something out. It’s a bit like being a college student who only takes easy courses to be sure of getting good grades. Might there be more to life than simple pleasures and cozy comfort? Then there’s the meaningful life. We often imagine that meaning flows from trying to change the world like Steve Jobs. Once again, the research shows that lowering your sights and focusing on the little things can offer a more achievable sense of meaning. Often people find it in routines like taking care of family, or volunteering in the community. But there is also a dark side to the pursuit of meaning: researchers have found that it can encourage people to draw sharp lines between those who belong in their group and those who don’t. My research lab mapped out a third route to fulfillment: psychological richness. A psychologically rich life is one filled with diverse, unusual and interesting experiences that change your perspective; a life with twists and turns; a life that feels like a long, winding hike rather than many laps of the same racing circuit. Such experiences can make us tougher. Not only that, embracing the pursuit of psychological richness can make us less likely to regret: it matters less if the thing you did went wrong. Perhaps no one said it better than Eleanor Roosevelt: “The purpose of life after all, is to live it, to taste experience to the utmost, to reach out eagerly and without fear .”(363) 51. What is the main purpose of the first paragraph? A. To introduce the author’s professional background and research focus B. To criticize traditional views on happiness C. To present statistical data on life satisfaction D. To compare Eastern and Western philosophies 52. What is revealed about pursuing happiness or meaning? A. Their benefits outweigh the limits. B. They are equally difficult to achieve. C. Both paths have limits despite their benefits. D. Most people prioritize happiness over meaning. 53. What does the example of “a college student” show in paragraph 3? A. Gratitude is essential for a happy life. B. We should live up to others’ expectations. C. Happiness requires academic achievement. D. Life means more than leisure and comfort. 54. What can be inferred from paragraph 4 about the pursuit of meaning? A. Its negative effect might weaken social unity in the long run. B. It is more achievable through grand ambitions than small actions. C. Volunteering is the most effective way to gain a sense of meaning. D. People who pursue meaning often neglect their family responsibilities. 55. What is the author’s main purpose in writing this article? A. To promote Roosevelt’s life philosophy. B. To introduce a new concept of life fulfillment. C. To criticize traditional psychological research. D. To compare different cultural views on happiness. 第一节 阅读表达（共5小题； 每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读短文，按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 Alice Moore is a teenager entrepreneur (创业者), who in May 2015 set up her business AilieCandy. By the time she was 13, her company was worth millions of dollars with the invention of a super-sweet treat that could save kids’ teeth, instead of destroying them. It all began when Moore visited a bank with her dad. On the outing, she was offered a candy bar. However, her dad reminded her that sugary treats were bad for her teeth. But Moore was sick of missing out on candies. So she desired to get round the warning, “Why can’t I make a healthy candy that’s good for my teeth so that my parents can’t say no to it?” With that in mind, Moore asked her dad if she could start her own candy company. He recommended that she do some research and talk to dentists about what a healthier candy would contain. With her dad’s permission, she spent the next two years researching online and conducting trials to get a recipe that was both tasty and tooth-friendly. She also approached dentists to learn more about teeth cleaning. Consequently, she succeeded in making a kind of candy only using natural sweeteners, which can reduce oral bacteria. Moore then used her savings to get her business off the ground. Afterwards she and her father secured their first business meeting with a supermarket owner, who finally agreed to sell Moore’s product — CanCandy. As CanCandy’s success grows, so does Moore’s credibility as a young entrepreneur. Moore is enthusiastic about the candy she created, and she’s also positive about what the future might bring. She hopes that every kid can have a clean mouth and a broad smile. Meanwhile, with her parents’ help, Moore is generally able to live a normal teenage life. Although she founded her company early on in life, she wasn’t driven primarily by profit. Moore wants to use her unique talent to help others find their smiles. She donates 10% of AilicCandy’s profits to Big Smiles. With her talent and determination, it appears that the sky could be the limit for Alice Moore. 56 How did Moore react to her dad’s warning?
