(这个展览空间由Kasmin画廊拥有和运营，可以从附近的高线观看。)”可知，该花园是由Kasmin画廊拥有和运营。故选B。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据Storm King Art Center (New Windsor)部分中“By far the most popular sculpture park in upstate New York, it is a 500-acre sculpture park in Hudson Valley. (它是纽约北部最受欢迎的雕塑公园，位于哈德逊谷，占地500英亩。)”可知，Storm King Art Center位于哈德逊谷。故选C。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章的标题“Top Public Sculpture Parks to Visit in America(美国最值得参观的公共雕塑公园)”可知文章介绍的是美国最值得参观的公共雕塑公园。故可以推断文章出自于一本旅游手册。故选A。 B The 60-foot-tall rocket took off in West Texas, sending a group of six people into space and giving them a few minutes of weightlessness before they landed by parachute (降落伞). Most of the passengers paid a secret sum of money for their seats. But Katya Echazarreta, an engineer and science communicator, was selected by a nonprofit organization to join in this travel from a pool of thousands of applicants. The organization’s goal is to send great leaders into space and allow them to experience the overview effect, which was reported by astronauts who said that viewing the Earth from space gave them a great change in their view. “Looking down, you see everyone is down there, all of our past, all of our difficulties, everything — everything is there,” Echazarreta said. “When I came back down, it just completely strengthened my wish to continue enabling people of different backgrounds to go into space and do whatever they want.” Echazarreta is the first Mexican-born woman to travel into space. She moved to the United States with her family at the age of seven. She recalled that she felt uncertain in a new place where she didn’t speak the language and that a teacher warned her that she might have to repeat a grade. “It just really fueled me and after that, I just studied harder,” Echazarreta said. Later she became the main breadwinner in her family. Sometimes she had up to four jobs at the same time, just to try to successfully graduate from college. She worked in NASA before and didn’t see other female engineers like her, which inspired her to popularize science among the public. These days, Echazarreta is studying for her master’s degree in engineering at Johns Hopkins University. She also has more than 330,000 fans on TikTok, and hosts a science-focused YouTube series. 4. Why was Echazarreta chosen to travel into space? A. She was considered to be an excellent person. B. She was an expert in landing by parachute. C. She supported the project with a big sum of money. D. She made great efforts to set up a nonprofit organization. 5. What was in Echazarreta’s mind after she returned from space travel? A. To share the beauty of space on social media. B.

These days, Echazarreta is studying for her master’s degree in engineering at Johns Hopkins University. She also has more than 330,000 fans on Tik Tok, and hosts a science-focused YouTube series.(她之前曾在美国国家航空航天局工作，未曾见过像她一样的其他女性工程师，这促使她致力于向公众普及科学知识。如今，Echazarreta正在约翰斯·霍普金斯大学攻读工程学硕士学位。她在 TikTok上拥有超过33万名粉丝，并主持着一个以科学为主题的YouTube系列节目)”可知，Echazarreta是一个鼓舞人心且勤奋的人。故选B。 C Eight-year-old Xiao Ming sat with his head in his hands, muttering to himself as he tried to beat an AI-powered robot at a game of chess. But this was not in an AI showroom or lab — the robot was living on a coffee table in a Beijing apartment, along with Xiao Ming. “It’s like a little teacher or a little friend,” the boy said, as he showed his mum the next move he was considering on the chessboard. China is actively employing AI in its bid to become a tech superpower by 2030. DeepSeek, the breakthrough Chinese chatbot that caught the world’s attention in January, was just the first shot of that ambition. Beijing plans to invest 100 billion Chinese yuan ($13.7 billion; €12.9 billion) over the next 15 years as it competes with Washington to gain the edge in advanced tech. AI funding got yet another boost at the government’s annual political gathering, which is currently underway. This comes on the heels of a 60-billion-yuan AI investment fund created in January, just days after the US further tightened export controls for advanced chips and placed more Chinese firms on a trade blacklist. But DeepSeek has shown that Chinese companies can overcome these barriers. And that’s what has surprised Silicon Valley and industry experts — they did not expect China to catch up so soon. “DeepSeek’s rapid rise has caused hostile reactions from some in the West,” a commentary in the state-run Beijing Daily noted, adding that “the development environment for China’s AI models remains highly uncertain. “ But China’s AI firms are not discouraged. Rather, they believe thrifty innovation (节俭创新) will win them an undeniable advantage — because it was DeepSeek’s claim that it could rival ChatGPT for a tiny amount of the cost that shocked the AI industry. 8. Why is Xiao Ming mentioned in paragraph 1? A. To provide an argument. B. To present detailed information. C. To lead in the topic. D. To illustrate China’s AI firms. 9. What can be inferred from Paragraph 2 and Paragraph 3? A. China has already had many successful AI achievements. B. DeepSeek was just the first step for China to become a tech giant. C. DeepSeek has suggested China’s determination to cooperate with others. D. China invested 100-billion-yuan investment fund in January. 10. What is the attitude of some Western countries towards DeepSeek’s booming? A. Unfriendly. B. Supportive C. Indifferent. D. Admiring. 11. What do we know from the passage? A. All countries are making joint efforts in the development of AI. B. The cost of DeepSeek is much higher than that of ChatGPT. C. China’s AI development will face no difficulty in the future. D. Chinese AI firms could outweigh due to its less expense 【答案】8. C 9. B 10. A 11. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。中国正大力发展 AI 以 2030 年成为科技超级大国，DeepSeek的崛起引发西方关注，中国 AI 公司凭借节俭创新（低成本）应对挑战、争取优势。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Eight-year-old Xiao Ming sat with his head in his hands, muttering to himself as he tried to beat an AI-powered robot at a game of chess. But this was not in an AI showroom or lab — the robot was living on a coffee table in a Beijing apartment, along with Xiao Ming. “It’s like a little teacher or a little friend,” the boy said, as he showed his mum the next move he was considering on the chessboard.(八岁的小明双手抱头，独自坐在那里，嘴里念念有词，试图在一场国际象棋比赛中战胜一个由人工智能驱动的机器人。但这里并非是人工智能展示厅或实验室——这个机器人就安放在北京一间公寓的茶几上，与小明一同生活在那里。“它就像一个小小的老师或者小小的伙伴，”这个男孩说道，并向他妈妈展示了他在棋盘上考虑的下一步走法)”可知，在第一段中提到了小明是为了引出主题。故选C。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“DeepSeek, the breakthrough Chinese chatbot that caught the world’s attention in January, was just the first shot of that ambition.(DeepSeek，这款在去年1月引起全球关注的具有突破性的中国聊天机器人，只是其雄心壮志的初步展现)”可知，DeepSeek只是中国成为科技巨头的第一步。故选B。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“DeepSeek’s rapid rise has caused hostile reactions from some in the West(DeepSeek的迅速崛起在西方引发了一些人的强烈反对)”可知，一些西方国家对DeepSeek公司的发展持不友好态度。故选A。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“But China’s AI firms are not discouraged. Rather, they believe thrifty innovation (节俭创新) will win them an undeniable advantage — because it was DeepSeek’s claim that it could rival ChatGPT for a tiny amount of the cost that shocked the AI industry.(但中国的人工智能企业并未气馁。相反，他们坚信低成本创新将为他们赢得不可否认的优势——因为正是深搜公司宣称其成本仅为 ChatGPT 的一小部分，这一说法震惊了整个人工智能行业)”可知，由于成本较低，中国的人工智能企业可能会占据优势。故选D。 D Imagine the roadways where nearly all serious accidents can be avoided, and trucks can transport goods around the clock without needing to stop for sleep. Applications for advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) will replace the average human reaction time, lowering it from 1.6 seconds to just 0.5 seconds, saving countless lives in the process. The driverless future of autonomous vehicles (AV) is set to transform society by reinventing (重塑) the transportation industry and changing consumer behaviors forever. Yet, the share of consumers who support government regulation of fully self-driving cars has declined 15% over the past year, and trust in the safety of autonomous vehicles is down 5%. To address these ongoing safety concerns, more must be done. Autonomous vehicles should not be regulated by the same rules that govern standard passenger vehicles because those regulations do not address the unique safety challenges for AVs. To address these concerns, the industry will need to continue building public trust through the improved performance of AV systems, especially in controlled environments. Reaching a totally hands-off and eyes-off autonomous driving experience will require a range of next-generation technologies that are still being developed. Automakers will continue to increase the safety of autonomous vehicles by applying new technologies such as artificial intelligence and machine learning to improve the performance of sensors that use radio and light waves to help detect road users in all weather conditions. The technical brain of an AV system relies on software systems that actively protect passengers. As this market grows, costs will steadily fall for these new sensors and high-performance computers, just as safety standards continue to progress around the country and the world. To help build confidence in AVs, the industry will need to generate a common set of testing standards, similar to crash safety standards, that AV developers can evaluate their systems against. As autonomous driving evolves, the road to a driverless future still holds many twists and turns ahead. It should be an exciting and wild ride for years to come as the auto industry reinvents itself with ever-increasing levels of automation. 12. What make consumers still hesitant about the application of AV? A. Costly operating systems. B. Government regulations. C. Potential safety concerns. D. Complicated technologies. 13. What can we learn from paragraph 3? A. AVs fail to follow standard regulations. B. Tailored rules are needed for AVs. C. Public trust in AVs is difficult to earn. D. AVs should be tested on public roads. 14. How can the public’s trust in AVs be improved? A. By integrating existing technologies. B. By limiting their maximum speed. C. By developing a reliable testing system. D. By minimizing the cost of sensors. 15. What is the writer’s attitude towards the future of AVs? A. Skeptical and concerned. B. Cautious yet optimistic. C. Worried and reserved. D. Pessimistic yet tolerant. 【答案】12. C 13. B 14. C 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，讨论了自动驾驶汽车(AV)的未来，强调了其在提高交通安全、重塑交通行业和改变消费者行为方面的潜力，同时指出了公众对AV安全性的担忧以及如何建立公众信任。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Yet, the share of consumers who support government regulation of fully self-driving cars has declined 15% over the past year, and trust in the safety of autonomous vehicles is down 5%. (然而，过去一年中，支持政府对完全自动驾驶汽车进行监管的消费者比例下降了15%，对自动驾驶汽车安全性的信任度下降了5%。)”可知，消费者对自动驾驶汽车的潜在安全性问题仍然感到担忧。故选C项。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Autonomous vehicles should not be regulated by the same rules that govern standard passenger vehicles because those regulations do not address the unique safety challenges for AVs. (自动驾驶汽车不应该受到与标准乘用车相同的规则的约束，因为这些规则没有解决自动驾驶汽车面临的特殊安全挑战。)”可知，需要为自动驾驶汽车制定专门的规则。故选B项。 14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“To help build confidence in AVs, the industry will need to generate a common set of testing standards, similar to crash safety standards, that AV developers can evaluate their systems against.(为了帮助建立对自动驾驶汽车的信心，该行业需要制定一套类似于碰撞安全标准的通用测试标准，以便自动驾驶汽车开发者可以对照这些标准评估其系统。)”可知，制定一套可靠的测试标准可以帮助建立公众对自动驾驶汽车的信心。故选C项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“It should be an exciting and wild ride for years to come as the auto industry reinvents itself with ever-increasing levels of automation.(随着汽车行业以不断提高的自动化水平重塑自己，未来几年将是一段激动人心且充满变数的旅程。)”可知，作者认为这将是一段激动人心且充满挑战的旅程，由此可知，作者对自动驾驶汽车的未来持谨慎乐观的态度。故选B项。 第二节 (共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 When Failure Is a Good Thing Failure is an important process you can learn from. ____16____ Most people view failure as something that should be avoided at all costs. ____17____It may have been an “F” we received on a paper or the high expectations our parents placed upon our shoulders that stopped us from trying. Award-winning psychologist and author, Ron Friedman, tells the story of how Sara Blakely, founder of Spanx, revolutionized the women’s clothing industry and became a billionaire in his book, The Best Place To Work: The Art and Science of Creating an Extraordinary Workplace. ____18____She had zero experience in the clothing industry, lacked an education in business and raised only $5,000 to invest. When asked where she found the courage, she gave all credit to her dad. While most parents ask their kids, “How was your day?” when sitting down for dinner, Sara’s parents asked her and her brother, “What did you fail at today?” each and every night. When interviewed by CNN’s Anderson Cooper, Sara said, “Instead of failure being the outcome, failure became not trying. It forced me at a young age to want to push myself so much further out of my comfort zone.” ____19____It became more about learning and less about a personal weakness. If we view failure as weakness, we avoid stepping out of our comfort zone. ____20____It does not define us, but instead matures us. I’m sure that there are many risks we would all take in our personal, professional and spiritual lives if we could get past a fear of failure. A. In reality, Sara’s father had re-defined failure. B. Early on, Sara overcame a series of difficulties. C. And, most importantly, it means you tried. D. Let’s take a look at how Sara faced failures. E. We tend to connect failure with a bad experience we had as a child. F. Instead, we must remind ourselves that failure is an action. G. It is important to reflect on what can be learnt from failure. 【答案】16. C 17. E 18. B 19. A 20. F 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文倡导失败是可借鉴的重要过程，以 Spanx 创始人萨拉为例，其父亲独特的 “询问失败” 教育让她不惧尝试，阐明失败并非弱点，而是成长与成熟的助力。 【16题详解】 根据上文“Failure is an important process you can learn from.(失败是一个你可以从中吸取经验教训的重要过程)”可知，前文提到“失败是可借鉴的重要过程”，C项“且最重要的是，它意味着你尝试过了”承接前文，进一步阐释失败的积极意义，衔接自然。故选C。 【17题详解】 根据后文“It may have been an “F” we received on a paper or the high expectations our parents placed upon our shoulders that stopped us from trying.(可能是我们在某次考试中得了“不及格”的成绩，又或者是父母对我们寄予了过高的期望，这些都让我们不敢去尝试)”可知，后文举例“试卷上的F分、父母的高期望”，均属于童年相关的负面经历，E项“我们往往将失败与童年的糟糕经历联系起来”引出下文，逻辑连贯。故选E。 【18题详解】 根据后文“She had zero experience in the clothing industry, lacked an education in business and raised only $5,000 to invest. When asked where she found the courage, she gave all credit to her dad. While most parents ask their kids, “How was your day?” when sitting down for dinner, Sara’s parents asked her and her brother, “What did you fail at today?” each and every night.(她对服装行业毫无经验，也没有接受过商业方面的教育，而且仅筹集了5000美元用于投资。当被问及她是如何获得勇气的时，她把功劳都归给了她的父亲。而大多数父母在晚餐时会问孩子“你今天过得怎么样？”而萨拉的父母则每晚都会问她和她的弟弟“今天你都遭遇了什么失败？”)”可知，后文具体说明萨拉“无行业经验、无商业教育背景、资金有限”，这些都是她面临的困难，B项 “起初，萨拉克服了一系列困难”总领该段内容，符合语境。故选B。 【19题详解】 根据上文“When interviewed by CNN’s Anderson Cooper, Sara said, “Instead of failure being the outcome, failure became not trying. It forced me at a young age to want to push myself so much further out of my comfort zone.”(在接受美国有线电视新闻网（CNN）安德森·库珀的采访时，萨拉说道：“原本失败才是最终结果，但后来失败变成了不去尝试。这让我在年轻时就不得不竭尽全力地走出自己的舒适区。”)”可知，前文萨拉提到父亲的教育让“失败从结果变成了‘不尝试’”，即父亲重新定义了失败，A项“事实上，萨拉的父亲重新定义了失败”是对前文的总结，衔接紧密。故选A。 【20题详解】 根据上文“If we view failure as weakness, we avoid stepping out of our comfort zone.(如果我们把失败视为一种弱点，那么我们就不会主动走出自己的舒适区)”以及后文“It does not define us, but instead matures us.(它不会定义我们，而是促使我们成长)”可知，前文说“若将失败视为弱点，就会回避走出舒适区”，后文强调“失败不能定义我们，而是让我们成熟”，F项“相反，我们必须提醒自己失败是一种行为”承上启下，纠正错误认知，引出失败的正面作用。故选F。 第三部分 语言运用（共三节，满分40分） 第一节 （共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Manuela Ribeiro has a healthy addiction.

Owned and operated by Kasmin Gallery, this exhibition space can be viewed from the nearby High Line. It is designed by Future Green, a Brooklyn landscape architect studio, and it stands beside a famous building designed by Zaha Hadid. There’s a current exhibition featuring bronze sculptures by Alma Allen, which shows the artist’s regard for Utah. Tippet Rise Art Center (Fishtail) This sculpture garden is worth the trip to the Beartooth Mountains in Fishtail. It is a 12,500-acre ranch (牧场) which is peppered with public art, including sculptures by Mark di Suvero, among others. This summer, the ranch will be open to those who are hiking or traveling by bike. Storm King Art Center (New Windsor) By far the most popular sculpture park in upstate New York, it is a 500-acre sculpture park in Hudson Valley. Since opening in 1960， it has grown to include dozens of sculptures that change over time. In its collection, the park owns sculptures by famous artists including Carl Andre, Louise Bourgeois and Daniel Buren. Olympic Sculpture Park (Seattle) This outdoor park was created by the nearby Seattle Art Museum and features a large red sculpture by Alexander Calder called Eagle, as well as Wake by Richard Serra. Since 2007 this waterfront park has brought creativity to Elliott Bay. The landscape design fits in with the local roads and skylines, facing the harbor in what’s recognized as Seattle’s largest downtown space. 1.

B The 60-foot-tall rocket took off in West Texas, sending a group of six people into space and giving them a few minutes of weightlessness before they landed by parachute (降落伞). Most of the passengers paid a secret sum of money for their seats. But Katya Echazarreta, an engineer and science communicator, was selected by a nonprofit organization to join in this travel from a pool of thousands of applicants. The organization’s goal is to send great leaders into space and allow them to experience the overview effect, which was reported by astronauts who said that viewing the Earth from space gave them a great change in their view. “Looking down, you see everyone is down there, all of our past, all of our difficulties, everything — everything is there,” Echazarreta said. “When I came back down, it just completely strengthened my wish to continue enabling people of different backgrounds to go into space and do whatever they want.” Echazarreta is the first Mexican-born woman to travel into space. She moved to the United States with her family at the age of seven. She recalled that she felt uncertain in a new place where she didn’t speak the language and that a teacher warned her that she might have to repeat a grade. “It just really fueled me and after that, I just studied harder,” Echazarreta said. Later she became the main breadwinner in her family. Sometimes she had up to four jobs at the same time, just to try to successfully graduate from college. She worked in NASA before and didn’t see other female engineers like her, which inspired her to popularize science among the public. These days, Echazarreta is studying for her master’s degree in engineering at Johns Hopkins University. She also has more than 330,000 fans on TikTok, and hosts a science-focused YouTube series. 4. Why was Echazarreta chosen to travel into space? A. She was considered to be an excellent person. B. She was an expert in landing by parachute. C. She supported the project with a big sum of money. D. She made great efforts to set up a nonprofit organization. 5 What was in Echazarreta’s mind after she returned from space travel? A. To share the beauty of space on social media. B. To encourage the public to learn science. C. To help more people travel into space. D. To make women scientists known to the public. 6. Which of the following can replace the underlined word “fueled” in Paragraph 4? A. Beat. B. Attracted. C. Confused. D. Drove. 7. What kind of person is probably Echazarreta? A. Calm and confident. B. Inspiring and hardworking. C. Humorous and outgoing. D. Talented and creative. C Eight-year-old Xiao Ming sat with his head in his hands, muttering to himself as he tried to beat an AI-powered robot at a game of chess. But this was not in an AI showroom or lab — the robot was living on a coffee table in a Beijing apartment, along with Xiao Ming. “It’s like a little teacher or a little friend,” the boy said, as he showed his mum the next move he was considering on the chessboard. China is actively employing AI in its bid to become a tech superpower by 2030. DeepSeek, the breakthrough Chinese chatbot that caught the world’s attention in January, was just the first shot of that ambition. Beijing plans to invest 100 billion Chinese yuan ($13.7 billion; €12.9 billion) over the next 15 years as it competes with Washington to gain the edge in advanced tech. AI funding got yet another boost at the government’s annual political gathering, which is currently underway. This comes on the heels of a 60-billion-yuan AI investment fund created in January, just days after the US further tightened export controls for advanced chips and placed more Chinese firms on a trade blacklist. But DeepSeek has shown that Chinese companies can overcome these barriers. And that’s what has surprised Silicon Valley and industry experts — they did not expect China to catch up so soon. “DeepSeek’s rapid rise has caused hostile reactions from some in the West,” a commentary in the state-run Beijing Daily noted, adding that “the development environment for China’s AI models remains highly uncertain. “ But China’s AI firms are not discouraged. Rather, they believe thrifty innovation (节俭创新) will win them an undeniable advantage — because it was DeepSeek’s claim that it could rival ChatGPT for a tiny amount of the cost that shocked the AI industry. 8. Why is Xiao Ming mentioned in paragraph 1? A. To provide an argument. B. To present detailed information. C. To lead in the topic. D. To illustrate China’s AI firms. 9. What can be inferred from Paragraph 2 and Paragraph 3? A. China has already had many successful AI achievements. B. DeepSeek was just the first step for China to become a tech giant. C. DeepSeek has suggested China’s determination to cooperate with others. D. China invested 100-billion-yuan investment fund in January. 10. What is the attitude of some Western countries towards DeepSeek’s booming? A. Unfriendly. B. Supportive C. Indifferent. D. Admiring. 11. What do we know from the passage? A. All countries are making joint efforts in the development of AI. B. The cost of DeepSeek is much higher than that of ChatGPT. C. China’s AI development will face no difficulty in the future. D. Chinese AI firms could outweigh due to its less expense D Imagine the roadways where nearly all serious accidents can be avoided, and trucks can transport goods around the clock without needing to stop for sleep. Applications for advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) will replace the average human reaction time, lowering it from 1.6 seconds to just 0.5 seconds, saving countless lives in the process. The driverless future of autonomous vehicles (AV) is set to transform society by reinventing (重塑) the transportation industry and changing consumer behaviors forever. Yet, the share of consumers who support government regulation of fully self-driving cars has declined 15% over the past year, and trust in the safety of autonomous vehicles is down 5%. To address these ongoing safety concerns, more must be done. Autonomous vehicles should not be regulated by the same rules that govern standard passenger vehicles because those regulations do not address the unique safety challenges for AVs. To address these concerns, the industry will need to continue building public trust through the improved performance of AV systems, especially in controlled environments. Reaching a totally hands-off and eyes-off autonomous driving experience will require a range of next-generation technologies that are still being developed. Automakers will continue to increase the safety of autonomous vehicles by applying new technologies such as artificial intelligence and machine learning to improve the performance of sensors that use radio and light waves to help detect road users in all weather conditions. The technical brain of an AV system relies on software systems that actively protect passengers. As this market grows, costs will steadily fall for these new sensors and high-performance computers, just as safety standards continue to progress around the country and the world. To help build confidence in AVs, the industry will need to generate a common set of testing standards, similar to crash safety standards, that AV developers can evaluate their systems against. As autonomous driving evolves, the road to a driverless future still holds many twists and turns ahead. It should be an exciting and wild ride for years to come as the auto industry reinvents itself with ever-increasing levels of automation. 12. What make consumers still hesitant about the application of AV? A. Costly operating systems. B. Government regulations. C. Potential safety concerns. D. Complicated technologies. 13. What can we learn from paragraph 3? A. AVs fail to follow standard regulations. B. Tailored rules are needed for AVs. C. Public trust in AVs is difficult to earn. D. AVs should be tested on public roads. 14. How can the public’s trust in AVs be improved? A By integrating existing technologies. B. By limiting their maximum speed. C. By developing a reliable testing system. D. By minimizing the cost of sensors. 15. What is the writer’s attitude towards the future of AVs? A. Skeptical and concerned. B. Cautious yet optimistic. C Worried and reserved. D. Pessimistic yet tolerant. 第二节 (共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 When Failure Is a Good Thing Failure is an important process you can learn from. ____16____ Most people view failure as something that should be avoided at all costs. ____17____It may have been an “F” we received on a paper or the high expectations our parents placed upon our shoulders that stopped us from trying. Award-winning psychologist and author, Ron Friedman, tells the story of how Sara Blakely, founder of Spanx, revolutionized the women’s clothing industry and became a billionaire in his book, The Best Place To Work: The Art and Science of Creating an Extraordinary Workplace. ____18____She had zero experience in the clothing industry, lacked an education in business and raised only $5,000 to invest. When asked where she found the courage, she gave all credit to her dad. While most parents ask their kids, “How was your day?” when sitting down for dinner, Sara’s parents asked her and her brother, “What did you fail at today?” each and every night. When interviewed by CNN’s Anderson Cooper Sara said, “Instead of failure being the outcome, failure became not trying. It forced me at a young age to want to push myself so much further out of my comfort zone.” ____19____It became more about learning and less about a personal weakness. If we view failure as weakness, we avoid stepping out of our comfort zone. ____20____It does not define us, but instead matures us. I’m sure that there are many risks we would all take in our personal, professional and spiritual lives if we could get past a fear of failure. A. In reality, Sara’s father had re-defined failure. B. Early on, Sara overcame a series of difficulties. C. And, most importantly, it means you tried. D. Let’s take a look at how Sara faced failures. E. We tend to connect failure with a bad experience we had as a child. F. Instead, we must remind ourselves that failure is an action. G. It is important to reflect on what can be learnt from failure. 第三部分 语言运用（共三节，满分40分） 第一节 （共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Manuela Ribeiro has a healthy addiction.
