【解析】
【详解】 I want to explain a few things about your essay.
First of all, the deadline for this essay is October the 18th. Not the 19th, not two days later because your dog was ill or your computer broke — the 18th. If it’s late, I won’t mark it. I won’t even read it-you’ll fail the assignment! So, please hand it in on time.
You can email me the essays. I’ll reply to say I’ve got it. If I don’t reply within a day, it might mean I didn’t get it, so please email me again to make sure. You can also bring a paper copy of the essay to my office, but let’s be kind to the trees, OK? Email is better for the trees and for me.
Don’t forget that you must reference every idea or quote you use that isn’t your own idea. And the last page of your essay should be a list of all the books you used, in alphabetical order, not in the order you used them!
And lastly, make it easy for me to read! That means using a clear font. Arial is best, but Times New Roman is fine too. Not Comic Sans please! Size 12 font for the essay, and size 14 for the titles and subheadings. And use page numbers. Any questions?

【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章介绍了宾夕法尼亚州立大学图书馆的借阅规则、续借方式、逾期罚款政策以及账户问题处理方法。
【21题详解】
细节理解题。根据How long can I borrow?部分的借阅期限表格中,“Books (书籍)”在“Penn State alumni and visitors(宾夕法尼亚州立大学校友和访客)”列下显示为“4 weeks(4周)”可知,一名前宾夕法尼亚州立大学校友属于此类别,因此借书期限为4周。故选B。
【22题详解】
细节理解题。根据Library Fines for Overdue Items部分的逾期物品罚款表格中,“Course Reserves (课程预定)”的罚款为“$2/hour, $100 max. (每小时2美元,最高100美元)”,且“Additional fees (额外费用)”中规定“After 10 days: $25 processing fee (逾期10天后,加收25美元处理费)”。由此可知,如果逾期30天,基础罚款已达最高限额100美元(因30天远超过罚款上限),加上逾期10天后的25美元处理费,总计125美元。故选D。
【23题详解】
细节理解题。根据Questions about My Library Account部分中“If you believe that you received an overdue notice for an item that you’ve returned, complete the online Claim Returned Form to initiate a library staff search. (若你确认已归还物品却仍收到逾期通知,请填写线上归还申报表单,以便图书馆工作人员进行核查。)”可知,当归还物品后仍收到逾期通知时可填写归还申报表单。故选C。
B
People casually describe themselves as people-pleasers as they might describe their hair color or music preference. However, people-pleasing can be a very real mental health problem, often associated with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) (强迫症). Approval-seeking behavior is self-injurious by nature. To satisfy this obsession, we must be inauthentic (不真实的) and reduced versions of ourselves, overly vigilant of the preferences of others.
Essentially, our main compulsion is avoidance of causing distress in others. Few things make me shake more than a confrontation (对抗). I see this behavior as a response to my childhood, which was filled with intense fear. My single parent had weekly moments of being angry and abusive. I learned early on that my safety depended on my mother’s view of me. So I began to predict what my mother wanted me to do and say. By the time I was in middle school, over-apologizing and shifting my personality to please others became firmly established in my social behavior.
For most adult people-pleasers, including me, it feels natural to cling on to (依赖) the comfort of agreeability. Even with my own children, I give up my own authority. I recently noticed that when I say the word “no,” my voice strikes an uncomfortable register. I challenge and displease my clients, but only because it is demanded for effective treatment.
People-pleasing is clearly holding me back; but what makes me cling on? I am starting to realize that I am avoiding the uncertainty of people’s reactions. When I am universally agreeable, I rarely have to go outside my comfort zone in interpersonal dynamics. Authentic interactivity with others requires taking a risk. Displeased people are stressful.
So the key seems to be exposure. The more interactions I experience where I am not pleasing others, the more comfort I gain with this dynamic. As I practice saying “no,” my voice will naturally deepen. Confidence will come with repetition. Yes, people’s negative reactions are uncertain, but not dangerous. The less I people-please, the more I will welcome growth into my interpersonal relationships. The challenge of others is, in fact, a joyous opportunity.
24. What does the underlined word “vigilant” in the first paragraph mean?
A. Tired. B. Fond. C. Uncertain. D. Mindful.
25. Why does the author mention her childhood?
A. To justify her approval-seeking behavior.
B. To offer an example of people-pleasing behavior.
C. To explain the reason for her people-pleasing behavior.
D. To stress the effect of family education on one’s social behavior.
26. What prevents the author from getting rid of people-pleasing?
A. Her dislike of her authentic self. B. Her fear of facing displeased people.
C. Her ignorance of interpersonal dynamics. D. Her misunderstanding of the comfort zone.
27. What does the author suggest to deal with people-pleasing?
A. Practice authenticity. B. Interact more with others.
C. Ignore people’s negative reactions. D. Seek comfort from existing relationships.
【答案】24. D 25. C 26. B 27. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要探讨了取悦他人这一行为背后的心理原因及其影响,并提出了应对策略。
【24题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第一段“To satisfy this obsession, we must be inauthentic and reduced versions of ourselves, overly vigilant of the preferences of others.(为了满足这种执念,我们不得不压抑真实的自我,活成一个“缩水版”的自己,还得时刻高度______他人的喜好。)”可知,讨好型人格的人为了迎合他人,会时刻留意他人的喜好。由此可知,vigilant意为“留意的”。故选D。
【25题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“I see this behavior as a response to my childhood, which was filled with intense fear. My single parent had weekly moments of being angry and abusive. I learned early on that my safety depended on my mother’s view of me. So I began to predict what my mother wanted me to do and say.(我认为这种讨好行为源于我那段充满极度恐惧的童年。我的单亲母亲每周都会有几次发怒、谩骂的时刻。我很小就意识到,自己能否平安度日,全取决于母亲对我的看法。于是,我开始揣测母亲希望我做什么、说什么。)”可知,作者提到她的童年是为了解释她取悦他人的行为的原因。故选C。
【26题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“People-pleasing is clearly holding me back; but what makes me cling on? I am starting to realize that I am avoiding the uncertainty of people’s reactions. When I am universally agreeable, I rarely have to go outside my comfort zone in interpersonal dynamics. Authentic interactivity with others requires taking a risk. Displeased people are stressful.(讨好型人格显然在阻碍我的发展,但究竟是什么让我难以摆脱它呢?我渐渐意识到,我是在逃避他人反应的不确定性。当我一味迎合所有人时,在人际交往中就几乎不用走出自己的舒适区。与他人进行真诚的互动,本身就需要承担风险。面对那些面露不悦的人,我总会感到压力重重。)”可知,难以摆脱讨好型人格,是因为害怕面对他人反应的不确定性,以及他人不悦时给自己带来的压力。故选B。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“So the key seems to be exposure. The more interactions I experience where I am not pleasing others, the more comfort I gain with this dynamic. As I practice saying “no,” my voice will naturally deepen. Confidence will come with repetition. (因此,解决问题的关键似乎在于主动尝试。我经历的拒绝讨好他人的互动越多,就越能适应这种相处模式。当我反复练习说 “不” 时,语气自然会变得坚定有力。自信会在一次次的练习中逐渐建立。)”可知,作者提出解决方法是“exposure”,也就是主动尝试不讨好他人的互动,练习说 “不”。这些做法的核心都是展现真实的自我。故选A。
C
Innovation consultants advise their clients to “think outside the box” to boost creativity and adaptability. So, what is this box, and how does one think outside it?
Originally, the “box” traces back to the nine-dot problem. The goal of this classic puzzle is simple: Connect all the dots in a 9-dot array (点阵) using no more than four straight lines and without lifting your pen from the page.
If this puzzle has you stuck, you’re not alone. The nine equally spaced dots give the impression of a square or box. Without realizing it, you may assume that the lines must be drawn within the boundaries of the dots. To solve the puzzle, you must let go of that assumption — you must think outside the box! In the correct solutions, the lines always extend outside of the square.
For starters, we’re not computers; we take mental shortcuts. We rely on life experience and context to make educated guesses when faced with ambiguous (含糊的) or partial information. In the nine-dot problem, we instantly recognize the pattern of a square, despite the missing lines.
We choose shortcuts when we have limited time or information; in other words, because we have no alternative. But we also cut corners out of habit. In the words of psychologist Susan Fiske, we are cognitive misers (认知吝啬鬼) — we spend as little of our cognitive resources as possible. So, although we interpret situations quickly, we rarely doubt the truthfulness of these first impressions. As a result, we may find ourselves restricted by our own false assumptions — stuck in the “box”.
Innovative thinking emphasizes change. It begins with a simple act: making a conscious effort to see things from different angles. This practice naturally leads you to question the present situation and think unconventionally, breaking you free from the norm (标准). By definition, this sort of thinking is more original. An open and flexible mind also allows one to adapt more easily to unexpected situations. And best of all, you don’t have to be an innovator or entrepreneur to think outside the box. By embracing little changes, you’ll automatically become more flexible.
28. Which of the following is a possible answer to the 9-dot problem?
A. B. C. D.
29. What does the “box” refer to in the text?
A. Classic puzzles. B. Quick solutions.
C. False assumptions. D. Constant Innovations.
30. Which of the following is a reason for taking shortcuts?
A. A lack of reliable first impressions. B. Limited life experience and context.
C. Restricted creativity and imagination. D. A tendency to minimize cognitive effort.
31. What is the key to developing innovative thinking?
A. Understanding the norm. B. Exploring new perspectives.
C. Adapting to the changing world. D. Accepting unexpected situations.
【答案】28. B 29. C 30. D 31. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章以“九点谜题”为切入点,解释了“跳出盒子思考”的内涵,分析了人们受错误假设束缚的原因(依赖思维捷径、认知吝啬),并阐述了培养创新思维的关键在于从不同角度看问题、打破常规。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Connect all the dots in a 9-dot array using no more than four straight lines and without lifting your pen from the page. (用不超过四条直线连接9个点阵中的所有点,过程中笔尖不能离开纸面。)”可知,只有选项B符合要求。故选B。
【29题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段中“Without realizing it, you may assume that the lines must be drawn within the boundaries of the dots. To solve the puzzle, you must let go of that assumption — you must think outside the box! (你可能会下意识地假定,线条必须画在点的边界范围内。而要解开这道谜题,你必须抛开这个假设——也就是说,你必须跳出盒子!)”及第五段中“As a result, we may find ourselves restricted by our own false assumptions — stuck in the ‘box’. (结果就是,我们可能会被自己的错误假设所束缚,陷入‘盒子’之中。)”可知,“盒子”指的是人们在思考时形成的错误假设(如默认线条不能超出点阵边界)。故选C。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段中“We choose shortcuts when we have limited time or information; in other words, because we have no alternative. But we also cut corners out of habit. In the words of psychologist Susan Fiske, we are cognitive misers — we spend as little of our cognitive resources as possible. (我们在时间或信息有限时会选择走捷径;换句话说,是因为我们别无选择。但我们也会出于习惯偷懒。用心理学家苏珊・菲斯克的话来说,我们都是‘认知吝啬鬼’——会尽可能少地消耗认知资源。)”可知,选择走捷径的原因在于人们倾向于尽可能减少认知消耗。故选D。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Innovative thinking emphasizes change. It begins with a simple act: making a conscious effort to see things from different angles. (创新思维强调变革。它始于一个简单的举动:有意识地努力从不同角度看待事物。)”可知,培养创新思维的关键在于从不同角度看待事物,也就是探索新的视角。故选B。
D
Screens are steadily taking over more and more of our life, leading some researchers to worry about the effect of long-term use on older adults’ brain. It has been suggested that this might lead to so-called “digital dementia” — that depending on digital technology throughout our life might harm cognitive (认知的) functioning in our later years.
But new research indicates this view doesn’t appear to be true, at least for the “digital pioneer” generation who first routinely used smartphones, computers and the Internet — and who are now reaching the age when cognitive decline often starts to appear.
In a paper published on Monday in Nature Human Behaviour, researchers analyzed 57 studies of digital technology use and cognitive function in more than 400,000 older adults across the world. They found that people in the “digital pioneer” generation who engaged more with digital technology did not have higher rates of cognitive decline. In fact, technology use was associated with lower rates of cognitive decline.
One reason some researchers worried about “digital dementia” was previous research that linked television viewing, a passive activity, with negative outcomes such as an increased risk of Alzheimer’s disease (阿尔茨海默症). “On the surface, most computer or smartphone screentime might seem similarly passive,” says the new paper’s co-author Michael Scullin, a neuroscience researcher at Baylor University. “But for this group of middle-aged and older adults, phones and computers have been used for mentally stimulating activities and for social connections, such as solving puzzles, engaging with the news, chatting with friends, or using reminders and alarms to help with daily activities.”
“This study provides a strong challenge to the widespread fears about ‘digital dementia’ and highlights the potential of technology as a tool for cognitive enrichment,” says Chiara Scarampi, a neuroscientist at the University of Geneva, who was not involved with the study. “‘Digital dementia’ has always felt like a catchy but overstated concept to me,” she adds. “Cognitive offloading — using tools like reminders or GPS — is not harmful by nature. In fact, it can free up cognitive resources for more complex tasks.”
32. What do we know about the “digital pioneer” generation?
A. They are addicted to digital technology.
B. They start using digital tools at an old age.
C. They are the first to use digital tools regularly.
D. They start suffering from sharp cognitive decline.
33. What is paragraph 4 mainly about?
A. The widespread use of digital tools. B. The analysis of the new research finding.
C. The great complexity of mental activities. D. The implication of the previous research finding.
34. What is Scarampi’s attitude toward “digital dementia”?
A. Approving. B. Tolerant. C. Critical. D. Unclear.
35. Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Responsible Technology Use Matters.
B. Cognitive Decline Isn’t Just about Aging.
C. Digital Tools May Actually Enhance Our Life.
D. Tech Use Isn’t Driving Dementia in Older Adults.
【答案】32. C 33. B 34. C 35. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要是关于新的研究表明长期使用数字技术(如智能手机、电脑)的“数字先驱”一代并未出现更高的认知衰退风险,反而可能因技术使用(如解谜、社交)降低认知衰退概率,反驳了“数字痴呆症”的担忧。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“But new research indicates this view doesn’t appear to be true, at least for the “digital pioneer” generation who first routinely used smartphones, computers and the Internet — and who are now reaching the age when cognitive decline often starts to appear. (但新的研究表明,这种观点似乎并不成立,至少对于“数字先驱”一代而言是如此。这一代人是第一批常规使用智能手机、电脑和互联网的群体,如今他们正步入认知衰退通常开始出现的年龄段。)”可知,“数字先驱”一代指的是首批定期使用数字工具的人群。故选C。
【33题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第四段“One reason some researchers worried about “digital dementia” was previous research that linked television viewing, a passive activity, with negative outcomes such as an increased risk of Alzheimer’s disease (阿尔茨海默症). “On the surface, most computer or smartphone screentime might seem similarly passive,” says the new paper’s co-author Michael Scullin, a neuroscience researcher at Baylor University. “But for this group of middle-aged and older adults, phones and computers have been used for mentally stimulating activities and for social connections, such as solving puzzles, engaging with the news, chatting with friends, or using reminders and alarms to help with daily activities.” (一些研究人员担忧“数字痴呆症”的原因之一,是此前有研究将看电视这种被动活动与负面结果(如阿尔兹海默症患病风险增加)关联起来。贝勒大学的神经科学研究员、该新论文的合著者迈克尔・斯卡林表示,“表面上看,大多数使用电脑或智能手机的屏幕时间似乎同样具有被动性。但对于这一群体的中老年人来说,手机和电脑一直被用于刺激性的脑力活动和社交联系,比如解谜、关注新闻、与朋友聊天,或是使用提醒和闹钟功能协助日常活动”)”可知,本段通过对比被动看电视(导致认知风险)与主动使用智能设备(如解谜、社交、新闻互动),解释了新研究的发现——数字技术因促进脑力活动反而降低认知衰退率。选项B“The analysis of the new research finding. (对新研究发现的分析。)”概括了段落核心。故选B。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“‘Digital dementia’ has always felt like a catchy but overstated concept to me,” she adds. “Cognitive offloading — using tools like reminders or GPS — is not harmful by nature. In fact, it can free up cognitive resources for more complex tasks.” (她补充道:“数字痴呆症”向来是一个吸睛但言过其实的概念”)”可知,斯卡拉皮认对“数字痴呆症”这一说法持批判态度。故选C。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段中“They found that people in the “digital pioneer” generation who engaged more with digital technology did not have higher rates of cognitive decline. In fact, technology use was associated with lower rates of cognitive decline.(他们发现,“数字先驱”一代中更多接触数字技术的人,认知衰退的比例并未更高。事实上,使用技术反而与较低的认知衰退比例相关。)”并通读全文可知,文章核心是新研究推翻“长期使用数字技术导致老年人‘数字痴呆’”的观点,证明数字技术使用不仅不引发认知衰退,反而可能降低衰退率。选项D“Tech Use Isn’t Driving Dementia in Older Adults (技术使用不会导致老年痴呆症)”能概括文章主旨,适合作为文章标题。故选D。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了武汉绿地中心的特点、设计、功能及意义。
【56题详解】
考查冠词。句意:这座摩天大楼高475米,是人类智慧和不断创新追求的象征。“a height of + 数字”意为“高度达……”,为固定搭配。故填a。
【57题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:它的设计旨在激发灵感并重新定义城市天际线,是进步和精致的标志。本句已有谓语动词stands,且空处没有连词,所以空处需用非谓语动词作状语;design与主语it之间是被动关系,所以空处需用过去分词designed作状语,句首单词首字母需大写。故填Designed。
【58题详解】
考查介词。句意:它的设计旨在激发灵感并重新定义城市天际线,是进步和精致的标志。stand as“作为……而存在”,固定搭配,符合题意。故填as。
【59题详解】
考查连词。句意:武汉绿地中心不仅仅是另一座高楼,而是建筑辉煌和工程专业知识的胜利。not…but…“不是……而是……”,固定搭配,符合题意。故填but。
【60题详解】
考查名词。句意:它的空气动力学设计不仅仅是为了美观——它大大减少了风阻,确保了在高耸的高度上的稳定性。此处需填名词作reduce的宾语,resist的名词形式是resistance“阻力”,为不可数名词。wind resistance“风阻”。故填resistance。
【61题详解】
考查形容词。句意:这一特点使其不仅成为一项工程奇迹,而且成为一座环保建筑,展示了形式和功能如何和谐共存。空处需用形容词作定语修饰名词structure;consider的形容词considerate“体贴的,考虑周到的”,符合题意。故填considerate。
【62题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:除了令人惊叹的外观,武汉绿地中心还拥有精心设计的内部,将奢华与实用性结合在一起。空处引导定语从句,先行词是interior,指物,关系词在定语从句中作主语,所以空处需用关系代词that/which引导定语从句。故填that/which。
【63题详解】
考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意:这座塔拥有最先进的办公室、豪华住宅和高质量的商业空间。house作动词时表示“容纳”,在句中作谓语。本句陈述事实,谓语动词需用一般现在时态,主语是单数the tower。故填houses。
【64题详解】
考查名词复数。句意:武汉绿地中心是现代建筑无限可能性的典型例子。possibility“可能性”,可数名词,由boundless可知,空处名词需用复数形式。故填possibilities。
【65题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:这座摩天大楼作为设计、工程和奢华的杰作,代表了进步的精神和人类重塑世界的潜力,一次一个创新的结构。the potential to do sth.“做某事的潜力”,此处需用动词不定式作后置定语。故填to reshape。

67. 阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
“Do you notice anything different?” I asked my daughter one sunny spring afternoon.
“Not really,” she responded while glancing around the living room and into the kitchen. “What am I missing?” That got the wheels spinning in my head, paving the way for me to eventually take a big step out of my comfort zone.
For as long as I could remember, I’d never believed my house was clean enough to invite friends over. So, whenever we were expecting company, I tired myself out to make certain the house was spotless. I cleaned so thoroughly that I ended up too tired mentally and physically to enjoy their company.
A great example was the time I offered to host a baby shower for my granddaughter and her husband. Realizing we would be inviting guests from both sides of the family, I was fearful as to how people might view my house. It was quite a lovely house, but I was still obsessed (着迷) with having everything perfect.
Of course, I wanted my kitchen floor to look as bright and clean as possible. So, while all the windows and doors in the house were shut, I mixed ammonia (氨水) and bleach (漂白剂), got down on my hands and knees, and scrubbed (擦洗) away.
Within a matter of moments, I began to feel rather short of breath. Realizing that combination of cleaning products had likely released poisonous gas, I opened all the windows immediately. But I continued cleaning the floors until they were shining. The house must look perfect.
As time passed, I realized I was caught between a rock and a hard place—no unnecessary anxiety or exhausting housecleaning, but also a lovely home with no visitors. It had to be fate (命运) the day my daughter stopped by and said, “What am I missing?”
I’d just finished up a week of thorough spring cleaning that included washing all the windows, both inside and out, shampooing the carpet, scrubbing the kitchen floor and polishing the furniture. To me, the house shone with springtime cleanliness.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
If my daughter missed it, would anyone else notice it?
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
I took a big step and started inviting friends to stop by
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】例文
If my daughter missed it, would anyone else notice it? Maybe my guests likewise didn’t pay much attention to how spotless my house appeared after I’d worked so hard to prepare for their visits. I thought about the times I’d visited friends. Although we always had a good time, not once could I recall how clean or messy their homes looked. We were more interested in talking and laughing — actually enjoying ourselves. Eventually, I began to feel more comfortable that it wasn’t my house my friends were coming to see: it was my family and me.
I took a big step and started inviting friends to stop by. Surprisingly, I looked forward to their visits. Of course, I tidied things up a bit when company was expected, but I definitely did not exhaust myself by trying to surpass what was already perfect. The change was liberating. I began to fully enjoy the company of my friends, both mentally and physically. What a blessing it was to finally accept that we had a lovely, welcoming home where everyone could have a good time—and nobody appreciated that more than me.
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。作者曾因过度追求完美清洁而害怕邀请朋友,导致无法享受社交。在女儿提问后,作者反思并克服了焦虑,开始轻松招待朋友,发现大家更重视情谊而非环境,从此享受生活,学会接纳不完美。

People casually describe themselves as people-pleasers as they might describe their hair color or music preference. However, people-pleasing can be a very real mental health problem, often associated with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) (强迫症). Approval-seeking behavior is self-injurious by nature. To satisfy this obsession, we must be inauthentic (不真实的) and reduced versions of ourselves, overly vigilant of the preferences of others.
Essentially, our main compulsion is avoidance of causing distress in others. Few things make me shake more than a confrontation (对抗). I see this behavior as a response to my childhood, which was filled with intense fear. My single parent had weekly moments of being angry and abusive. I learned early on that my safety depended on my mother’s view of me. So I began to predict what my mother wanted me to do and say. By the time I was in middle school, over-apologizing and shifting my personality to please others became firmly established in my social behavior.
For most adult people-pleasers, including me, it feels natural to cling on to (依赖) the comfort of agreeability. Even with my own children, I give up my own authority. I recently noticed that when I say the word “no,” my voice strikes an uncomfortable register. I challenge and displease my clients, but only because it is demanded for effective treatment.
People-pleasing is clearly holding me back; but what makes me cling on? I am starting to realize that I am avoiding the uncertainty of people’s reactions. When I am universally agreeable, I rarely have to go outside my comfort zone in interpersonal dynamics. Authentic interactivity with others requires taking a risk. Displeased people are stressful.
So the key seems to be exposure. The more interactions I experience where I am not pleasing others, the more comfort I gain with this dynamic. As I practice saying “no,” my voice will naturally deepen. Confidence will come with repetition. Yes, people’s negative reactions are uncertain, but not dangerous. The less I people-please, the more I will welcome growth into my interpersonal relationships. The challenge of others is, in fact, a joyous opportunity.
24. What does the underlined word “vigilant” in the first paragraph mean?
A. Tired. B. Fond. C. Uncertain. D. Mindful.
25. Why does the author mention her childhood?
A. To justify her approval-seeking behavior.
B. To offer an example of people-pleasing behavior.
C. To explain the reason for her people-pleasing behavior.
D. To stress the effect of family education on one’s social behavior.
26. What prevents the author from getting rid of people-pleasing?
A. Her dislike of her authentic self. B. Her fear of facing displeased people.
C. Her ignorance of interpersonal dynamics. D. Her misunderstanding of the comfort zone.
27. What does the author suggest to deal with people-pleasing?
A. Practice authenticity. B. Interact more with others.
C. Ignore people’s negative reactions. D. Seek comfort from existing relationships.
C
Innovation consultants advise their clients to “think outside the box” to boost creativity and adaptability. So, what is this box, and how does one think outside it?
Originally, the “box” traces back to the nine-dot problem. The goal of this classic puzzle is simple: Connect all the dots in a 9-dot array (点阵) using no more than four straight lines and without lifting your pen from the page.
If this puzzle has you stuck, you’re not alone. The nine equally spaced dots give the impression of a square or box. Without realizing it, you may assume that the lines must be drawn within the boundaries of the dots. To solve the puzzle, you must let go of that assumption — you must think outside the box! In the correct solutions, the lines always extend outside of the square.
For starters, we’re not computers; we take mental shortcuts. We rely on life experience and context to make educated guesses when faced with ambiguous (含糊的) or partial information. In the nine-dot problem, we instantly recognize the pattern of a square, despite the missing lines.
We choose shortcuts when we have limited time or information; in other words, because we have no alternative. But we also cut corners out of habit. In the words of psychologist Susan Fiske, we are cognitive misers (认知吝啬鬼) — we spend as little of our cognitive resources as possible. So, although we interpret situations quickly, we rarely doubt the truthfulness of these first impressions. As a result, we may find ourselves restricted by our own false assumptions — stuck in the “box”.
Innovative thinking emphasizes change. It begins with a simple act: making a conscious effort to see things from different angles. This practice naturally leads you to question the present situation and think unconventionally, breaking you free from the norm (标准). By definition, this sort of thinking is more original. An open and flexible mind also allows one to adapt more easily to unexpected situations. And best of all, you don’t have to be an innovator or entrepreneur to think outside the box. By embracing little changes, you’ll automatically become more flexible.
28. Which of the following is a possible answer to the 9-dot problem?
A. B. C. D.
29. What does the “box” refer to in the text?
A. Classic puzzles. B. Quick solutions.
C. False assumptions. D. Constant Innovations.
30. Which of the following is a reason for taking shortcuts?
A. A lack of reliable first impressions. B. Limited life experience and context.
C. Restricted creativity and imagination. D. A tendency to minimize cognitive effort.
31. What is the key to developing innovative thinking?
A. Understanding the norm. B. Exploring new perspectives.
C. Adapting to the changing world. D. Accepting unexpected situations.
D
Screens are steadily taking over more and more of our life, leading some researchers to worry about the effect of long-term use on older adults’ brain. It has been suggested that this might lead to so-called “digital dementia” — that depending on digital technology throughout our life might harm cognitive (认知的) functioning in our later years.
But new research indicates this view doesn’t appear to be true, at least for the “digital pioneer” generation who first routinely used smartphones, computers and the Internet — and who are now reaching the age when cognitive decline often starts to appear.
In a paper published on Monday in Nature Human Behaviour, researchers analyzed 57 studies of digital technology use and cognitive function in more than 400,000 older adults across the world. They found that people in the “digital pioneer” generation who engaged more with digital technology did not have higher rates of cognitive decline. In fact, technology use was associated with lower rates of cognitive decline.
One reason some researchers worried about “digital dementia” was previous research that linked television viewing, a passive activity, with negative outcomes such as an increased risk of Alzheimer’s disease (阿尔茨海默症). “On the surface, most computer or smartphone screentime might seem similarly passive,” says the new paper’s co-author Michael Scullin, a neuroscience researcher at Baylor University. “But for this group of middle-aged and older adults, phones and computers have been used for mentally stimulating activities and for social connections, such as solving puzzles, engaging with the news, chatting with friends, or using reminders and alarms to help with daily activities.”
“This study provides a strong challenge to the widespread fears about ‘digital dementia’ and highlights the potential of technology as a tool for cognitive enrichment,” says Chiara Scarampi, a neuroscientist at the University of Geneva, who was not involved with the study. “‘Digital dementia’ has always felt like a catchy but overstated concept to me,” she adds. “Cognitive offloading — using tools like reminders or GPS — is not harmful by nature. In fact, it can free up cognitive resources for more complex tasks.”
32. What do we know about the “digital pioneer” generation?
A. They are addicted to digital technology.
B. They start using digital tools at an old age.
C. They are the first to use digital tools regularly.
D. They start suffering from sharp cognitive decline.
33. What is paragraph 4 mainly about?
A. The widespread use of digital tools. B. The analysis of the new research finding.
C. The great complexity of mental activities. D. The implication of the previous research finding.
34. What is Scarampi’s attitude toward “digital dementia”?
A. Approving. B. Tolerant. C. Critical. D. Unclear.
35. Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Responsible Technology Use Matters.
B. Cognitive Decline Isn’t Just about Aging.
C. Digital Tools May Actually Enhance Our Life.
D. Tech Use Isn’t Driving Dementia in Older Adults.

67. 阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
“Do you notice anything different?” I asked my daughter one sunny spring afternoon.
“Not really,” she responded while glancing around the living room and into the kitchen. “What am I missing?” That got the wheels spinning in my head, paving the way for me to eventually take a big step out of my comfort zone.
For as long as I could remember, I’d never believed my house was clean enough to invite friends over. So, whenever we were expecting company, I tired myself out to make certain the house was spotless. I cleaned so thoroughly that I ended up too tired mentally and physically to enjoy their company.
A great example was the time I offered to host a baby shower for my granddaughter and her husband. Realizing we would be inviting guests from both sides of the family, I was fearful as to how people might view my house. It was quite a lovely house, but I was still obsessed (着迷) with having everything perfect.
Of course, I wanted my kitchen floor to look as bright and clean as possible. So, while all the windows and doors in the house were shut, I mixed ammonia (氨水) and bleach (漂白剂), got down on my hands and knees, and scrubbed (擦洗) away.
Within a matter of moments, I began to feel rather short of breath. Realizing that combination of cleaning products had likely released poisonous gas, I opened all the windows immediately. But I continued cleaning the floors until they were shining. The house must look perfect.
As time passed, I realized I was caught between a rock and a hard place—no unnecessary anxiety or exhausting housecleaning, but also a lovely home with no visitors. It had to be fate (命运) the day my daughter stopped by and said, “What am I missing?”
I’d just finished up a week of thorough spring cleaning that included washing all the windows, both inside and out, shampooing the carpet, scrubbing the kitchen floor and polishing the furniture. To me, the house shone with springtime cleanliness.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
If my daughter missed it, would anyone else notice it?
