内容正文:
After a long time,a light spot appeared in the distance!We
waved our hands and yelled out for help.The boat finally
reached us and took all of us back to the shore.The two
children were immediately sent to the nearest hospital.
Paragraph 2:
That night,word came from the hospital that the two
people were in good condition.Picturing what the merry
scene would be,relief lay in my heart and happiness etched
on my face.The next morning,all the people I met smiled
to me and could not stop praising me.It seemed like a
good opportunity to show myself off,but I didn't mean to
In fact,I was ashamed I had thought about it.It occurred
to me that helping others was priceless and everyone
should be a lifeguard.

great time.

Would you like to join us for a camping trip?

you meant a hill or a snow mountain.
W:Relax.It hasn't erupted for 100 years,although

past 10 years and nothing has happened.

M:We need to deliver 2,000 meals tonight to people
that cannot leave their home because of the virus.

need at least another 60 volunteers to get them all done.

mal delivery times are between 5:00 p.m.and 8:00 p.m.,
but if we make that from 4:00 p.m.to 10:00 p.m.,then we
can maybe get most of them done.
W:We'll need to finish earlier,because we are not al-
lowed out after 9:00 p.m.
M:I forgot.OK,let me see if I can get any more vol
unteers.
W:And I'll see if we can get more cars.

M:Hi,Debra.I just dropped by to see how you're
getting along with your packing.Do you need any help?
W:No,everything is okay.Thanks.But I've got a lot
more things to take home than I'd thought.It'll probably be
a little overweight.
M:You know that as long as the two cases are less
than 40 kg,that's all right for flights to America.You can
have a handbag and a small backpack as carry-ons,too.
W:Then that won't be a problem.
M:Now,when did you say your flight would leave?
W:Let me see...at 10:30 a.m.
M:I'll come by and pick you up at 7:30 a.m.Then we
can arrive early enough to check in without rushing.
W:Thanks,Jason.You don't have to bother,though.I
can call a taxi.
M:Well,I don't have anything scheduled for tomorrow
morning,so it won't be any trouble picking you up.

W:Hey,George!Where are you heading?
M:Hey,it's you,Mary.I just came back from an ex-
hibition.
W:A what?
M:An exhibition.To be exact,a fine art exhibition
W:Really?Is it good?
M:Yeah,pretty good,I should say.You know,I don't
have any artistic ability,but I can appreciate the stuff there.
There are portraits,oil paintings and watercolors.It's really
amazing.Sometimes they can fool your eyes-you have to
look really closely to see that's not a photo or something
real.It's a great exhibition.
W:What paintings do you like best?

so colorful and alive.
W:Yeah,that's one thing that I like about oil paint-
ings.But I can't stand the traditional style.I find it so bor-
ing.
M:Yeah,I'm a little tired of that style,too.I'm crazy
about art,and I wish that I were able to paint as well as
these artists.You should go and have a look at this exhibi-
tion if you can afford a day.It's really great.
W:Well.I was just thinking about what to do for the
weekend.Now you've given me a good idea.I'm really
looking forward to it!

中的“We all have the ability to express ourselves more
clearly,especially at work.Stanford Graduate School of
Business lecturer Matt Abrahams discusses real-world chal-
lenges and offers tips such as writing better emails and
preparing for meetings and presentations.”可知,这个播
客讨论现实世界的挑战,并提供诸如写更好的电子邮
件、准备会议和演讲等技巧,有助于提高沟通技巧。所
以能帮助提高沟通技巧的播客是“Think Fast,.Talk
Smart'”。故选C。
22.B【解析】根据“Sixth Sense”部分中的“A
long story about a family's love for their dog and how he
paid them back in the most shocking way.”可知,这是一
个关于家庭对狗的爱的长故事;再根据“A Song Of Ice
And Fire”部分中的“For those who like long listens,.
George R.R.Martins series claims the Iron)Throne (E
120
)The first story,the 33-hour-long Game of Thrones,
won a Guinness World Record for the most character
voices in an audio-book'with 224 characters alone."
知,这个播客系列是长篇的。所以有两个播客适合喜欢
长故事的听众。故选B。
23.A【解析】根据“Unreal:A Critical History of
Reality TV”部分中的“The BBC's Sirin Kale and Pan-
dora Sykes explore themes such as the Kardashians'cre-
ation of celebrity,and why Selling Sunset and Real House-
ives are so successful..”可知,这个播客探索了如《日
落家园》和《真实主妇》等真人秀节目成功的原因等主
题,也就是探索这些真人秀节目的幕后真相。故选A。
24.B【解析】根据第三段中“Ward had previously
devoted over a decade to visiting every country in the
word.”和第二段中“Years before,in2017,he'd become
the first Irish person to visit every country in the world."
可知,他花了十多年时间环游世界,在2017年实现目
标,所以开始环游世界的时间大概是2008年。故选B。
25.A【解析】根据第四段中“But once he'd
achieved the goal,Ward said he went into a tailspin
).I started eating badly,drinking too much and
putting on weight,.’he said.”可知,完成第一个大目标
后他很慌乱,生活状态变差,说明他感到迷茫,lost
“迷茫的”。故选A。
26.C【解析】根据第六段中“Visiting every country
in the world was expensive enough on its own,but climb-
ing Mount Qomolangma cost Ward $77.000.And that was
just one of the seven peaks he was required to climb.To
pay for his travels,he taught English in Thailand and Re-
public of Korea,worked in Australia and even signed up
for medical research.”可知,他为了支付旅行费用做了
很多工作,说明旅行费用是完成挑战最困难的部分。故
选C。
27.A【解析】根据最后一段中“But I do think it'sa
nice message that people coming from a background like
mine can do pretty cool things too.”可知,他分享自己的
故事是想传递一个信息,来自像他这样背景的人也能做
很酷的事情,是为了激励人们。故选A。
28.D【解析】根据第一段中“My younger,more
disciplined sister hates resolutions.'Why wait for a calen-
dar date to do something that's good for you?Make the de-
cision to be better now,'she said”可知,作者的妹妹认
为没有必要等到特定日期(日历上的日期)才去做对自
己有益的事,现在就可以决定变得更好,说明她觉得新
年决心是没有意义的,所以她不喜欢新年决心。故选D。
29.D【解析】根据第二段可知,我们难以养成健康
习惯的一个原因是我们认为养成新习惯始于一个坚定的
决定,并靠单一的自我意志来执行,这种思维方式虽然
依赖于绝对的自律,但并无帮助,也就是我们的观点是
错误的、被误导的,所以难以养成健康习惯。故选D。
30.A【解析】根据第二段中“When we promise
ourselves we're going to stop ordering takeout three times
per week,and we fail to follow through,we beat ourselves
up for not having self--control..”以及第三段中“Knock off
the self-deprecation!We don't need to punish ourselves,
Wood writes.”可知,当我们没有做到自己承诺的事情
时,会因为缺乏自控力而自责,而这里说要停止“slf
deprecation”,我们不需要惩罚自己,所以“self-depreca-
tion”意为“低估自己、自责”。故选A。
31.C【解析】根据最后一段可知,Wood建议从小
事做起,比如没有经验想跑马拉松,不要一开始就跑
26.2英里,而是先去散步,增强耐力,然后再去跑道跑
步,这样就不会觉得痛苦,会慢慢成为习惯,也就是要
逐渐朝着目标努力。故选C。
32.C【解析】根据文章第三段“To make these
movements as natural as possible,EveR 6's moves are
based on movements copied'from real human conduc-
tos(指挥),”可知,EveR6通过模仿真人指挥的动作
来实现自然的动作。故选C。
33.C【解析】文章第四段提到“The concert includ
ed five different pieces of music.Two were conducted by
EveR 6...Both conductors worked together on the final
piece..”,所以EveR6单独指挥了两首曲子,和Choi先
生一起指挥了一首曲子,总共指挥了三首曲子。故选C。
34.A【解析】由第七段“Mr.Choi said the robot's
greatest weakness was that it couldn't think.'Some people
think that conducting is just a mix of hand waving and
keeping the beat,but a good conductor needs to listen to
the orchestra,so that he or she can correct and encourage
the players as it plays..'”可知,Choi先生认为一个好的
指挥需要与管弦乐队沟通交流,而机器人缺乏思考和与
乐队的交流。故选A。
35.B【解析】根据文章最后一段可知,Choi先生
认为机器人在需要多次重复的练习活动中会有帮助。故
选B。

力的好处相呼应。故选D。
38.A【解析】前文提到“当你发现自己过度思考
时,挑战这些想法。问问自己这些想法是否真实、准
确,甚至是否能实现。考虑其他选择”,后文“但是学
会挑战自己的过度思考可以帮助你用更有益的想法取代
消极的想法”,A选项“一开始可能有点困难”,放在此
处,能很好地体现出挑战过度思考的过程中开始时的状
态,与后文形成转折关系。故选A。
39.G【解析】该段小标题是“练习自我接纳”,后
文“或者它来自担心你无法改变的事情。与其为你可能
后悔的事情责备自己,不如试着更接受自己”,G选项
“过度思考往往是由于过度关注过去的错误”,“过度关
注过去的错误”和“担心无法改变的事情”都是过度思
考的原因,且与该段自我接纳的主题相关。故选G。
40.F【解析】前文“如果你无法摆脱过度思考,考
参考答案⊙
虑寻求专业帮助”,后文“心理健康专家可能会教你一
些技能,帮助你停止细想那些没有帮助的事情。他们还
可能帮助你确定适合你的应对策略,比如正念或体育锻
炼”,F选项“所以留给采取行动的时间和精力变得越来
越少”,说明过度思考导致没有足够时间和精力行动,

Paragraph 1:
Although nothing happened that night,they didn't sleep
well.Luke tossed and turned in his bed,his mind constant-
ly replaying the scene of knocking over the flowers in Mr
Johnson's garden.Lukas was no better,his heart heavy
with guilt.They knew they had made a big mistake,not
only by using their dad's precious football without permis-
sion but also by causing damage to the neighbor's property.
The more they thought about it,the more anxious they be-
came.They dreaded facing Mr.Johnson and their father the
next day.Morning finally came,but they dragged them-
selves out of bed,dreading what the day might bring.
Paragraph 2:
After school.Luke and Lukas came to Mr.Johnson's
house.They knocked on the door,their hands shaking
slightly.When Mr.Johnson opened the door,they both
lowered their heads in shame.Luke took a deep breath and
said,"Mr.Johnson,we are so sorry.We threw the ball into
your garden last night and knocked over your flowers when
we climbed in to get it."Lukas added,"We want to make
it up to you.We can help you replant the flowers and clean
up the garden."Mr.Johnson looked at them for a moment,
then smiled."I appreciate your honesty,boys.Accidents
happen.Let's get started on fixing the garden together."
With that,they spent the afternoon working side by side
and the boys felt a huge weight lifted off their shoulders.
