Memorizing lists felt boring, and I often forgot words right after learning them. One afternoon, while browsing an online forum for students, I came across a post shared by a senior. It suggested linking words to daily life instead of just repeating them — and that small tip changed everything. I started with common words. When I ate pineapple for breakfast, I’d say its English name out loud and note how it combines “pine” and “apple” — a fun way to remember. For “homesick,” I thought of my cousin who felt sad when she first lived in her apartment downtown; that memory made the word stick. I even used “have a frog in one’s throat” when my friend struggled to speak after catching a cold — we laughed, and neither of us forgot the phrase. To make it more creative, I drew simple pictures next to new words in my notebook. For “sculpture,” I sketched a small statue I’d seen in the park; for “elevator,” a quick doodle (涂鸦) of the one in my building. I also spent 15 minutes each evening reviewing these notes, and slowly, I stopped feeling confused about tricky words. Last week, my teacher praised my vocabulary use in an essay. I realized learning words doesn’t have to be a chore — it can be full of fun if you find the right way. Now, I even look forward to discovering new words, eager to connect them to my life. 4. How did the writer first feel about memorizing English vocabulary? A. Fun and exciting. B. Boring and difficult. C. Easy and interesting. D. Surprising and useful. 5. What helped the writer remember the word “homesick”? A. A story about the writer’s cousin. B. A picture of a downtown apartment. C. A phrase from an online forum. D. A memory of eating pineapple. 6. What can we infer about the writer’s vocabulary learning method? A. It only works for simple words. B. It needs spending hours every day. C. It requires drawing professional pictures. D. It connects words to real-life experiences. 7. What can we learn from the writer’s experience? A. The writer’s cousin taught her many words. B. The online forum was created for vocabulary learning. C. Finding a proper way makes vocabulary learning enjoyable. D. The writer’s teacher gave her the idea of drawing pictures. 【答案】4. B 5. A 6. D 7. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者通过将英语词汇与日常生活、个人经历和趣味联想相结合，改变了原本枯燥的单词记忆方式，最终提升了词汇学习效果并从中获得乐趣。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Last semester, I struggled with English vocabulary. Memorizing lists felt boring, and I often forgot words right after learning them.(上学期，我在英语词汇学习上很吃力。死记硬背单词列表很枯燥，而且我常常刚学完单词就忘了。)”可知，作者最初认为记单词无聊且困难。故选B。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“For ‘homesick,’ I thought of my cousin who felt sad when she first lived in her apartment downtown; that memory made the word stick.(学到‘homesick’（思乡的）这个词时，我想起了表妹——她刚搬到市中心的公寓住时特别难过，这段回忆让我牢牢记住了这个词。)”可知，作者通过表妹的经历记住了“homesick”这个单词。故选A。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“It suggested linking words to daily life instead of just repeating them — and that small tip changed everything.(帖子建议把单词和日常生活联系起来，而不是单纯重复记忆——这个小小的技巧彻底改变了一切。)”及结合全文可知，文章围绕作者的学习方法展开——将“pineapple”与早餐食物关联、“homesick”与表妹的经历关联、“have a frog in one’s throat”与朋友感冒的场景关联等，可推知，作者的单词学习方法是将单词与真实生活经历结合。故选D。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Last week, my teacher praised my vocabulary use in an essay. I realized learning words doesn’t have to be a chore — it can be full of fun if you find the right way. Now, I even look forward to discovering new words, eager to connect them to my life.(上周，老师表扬了我在作文中对词汇的运用。我意识到，背单词不一定非得是件苦差事——只要找对方法，它也能充满乐趣。现在，我甚至盼着发现新单词，迫不及待地想把它们和我的生活联系起来。)”可知，作者从”厌恶记单词”到”期待学新单词”的经历告诉我们：找到合适的方法能让词汇学习变得有趣。故选C。 C At top universities, there’s a phenomenon known as “Stanford Duck Syndrome (综合征)”. Like ducks, students appear to move gracefully (优雅地). However, beneath the surface, they’re kicking hopelessly to keep up. Experts from Stanford’s Health Services explored this troubling trend: during the day, many Stanford students are seen socializing in cafés, seemingly without any stress or the need to study. However, at night, they start studying, sometimes for the entire night, trying to maintain the image of effortless success. This comes at a high price: tiredness and anxiety are widespread. Furthermore, it leads to a common wrong idea: true talents achieve success effortlessly, while those working hard are less capable. In an effort to challenge this misconception (误解), researchers designed an experiment. Participants were asked to observe a series of colors carefully while scientists tracked their brain activity throughout the process. The experiment was divided into two parts: one with easily recognized colors and the other with colors that were quite similar, requiring more effort to recognize. As the difficulty of the task increased, there was a noticeable increase in brain activity, particularly in areas linked to memory and abstract reasoning. The study shows that as tasks require more effort, more areas of the brain become engaged. Growth doesn’t come from talent alone but from the continuous application of effort. Our brain functions like a muscle. Without effort, even our inborn talents will disappear over time. This pushes us to reconsider the culture behind that might lead to this phenomenon. Instead of focusing too much on outcomes or singing high praise for inborn talents, we should emphasize the learning process and continuous improvement. By encouraging a culture that values effort, we can help students realize that intelligence is not fixed but grows through hard work. Such a change would not only reduce the pressures related to the “Stanford Duck Syndrome”, but also have a big effect on personal development and the future of education. 8. What phenomenon does the “Stanford Duck Syndrome” probably describe? A. Choosing effort over well-being. B. Relieving stress through social activities. C. Showing graceful images to attract others. D. Hiding hard work to appear naturally gifted. 9. How does the experiment in paragraph 3 challenge misconception? A. By proving focus improves brain function. B. By linking color recognition to intelligence. C. By showing effort fuels the brain activity. D. By connecting careful observation with talent. 10. What is the author’s main concern about “Stanford Duck Syndrome”? A. It causes stress and false ideas about success. B. It values the learning process over outcomes. C. It prevents students from recognizing their talents. D. It makes students value socializing more than studying. 11. Which of the following might the author agree with? A. Fortune prefers those with a clear mind. B. Sweat is the ink that writes a masterpiece. C. Work in silence and let success make the noise. D. Keep moving forward even when no one sees it. 【答案】8. D 9. C 10. A 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了斯坦福鸭子综合征的表现、危害，以及相关实验对“天赋优于努力”这一错误观念的纠正，并倡导重视努力的文化氛围。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“Experts from Stanford’s Health Services explored this troubling trend: during the day, many Stanford students are seen socializing in cafés, seemingly without any stress or the need to study. However, at night, they start studying, sometimes for the entire night, trying to maintain the image of effortless success.(斯坦福大学健康服务中心的专家针对这一令人担忧的趋势展开了研究：白天，人们常常看到斯坦福的学生们在咖啡馆社交，看上去毫无压力，也完全不需要埋头苦读。但一到晚上，他们便开始投入学习，有时甚至会通宵达旦，竭力维持着毫不费力就能成功的光鲜形象)”可知，斯坦福鸭子综合征的表现是学生白天表现得轻松无压力，夜晚却拼命学习，以此维持毫不费力就能成功的形象，也就是隐藏背后的努力，装作天生聪慧的样子。故选D。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段“As the difficulty of the task increased, there was a noticeable increase in brain activity, particularly in areas linked to memory and abstract reasoning.(随着任务难度的提升，受试者的大脑活动明显增强，尤其是在与记忆和抽象推理相关的脑区)”可知，实验中任务难度越高，需要投入的努力越多，大脑活动就越活跃。这一结果直接反驳了“天赋无需努力就能成功”的误解，证明努力能够激发大脑的活跃度。故选C。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“This comes at a high price: tiredness and anxiety are widespread. Furthermore, it leads to a common wrong idea: true talents achieve success effortlessly, while those working hard are less capable.(这种状态的代价十分高昂：疲惫与焦虑在学生群体中普遍存在。此外，这还催生了一种普遍的错误观念：真正有天赋的人从不费吹灰之力就能功成名就，而那些付出辛勤努力的人则能力欠佳)”可知，斯坦福鸭子综合征不仅会导致学生普遍疲惫焦虑，还会催生“天赋者无需努力就能成功，努力者能力欠佳”的错误观念。这两点正是作者对该综合征的主要担忧。故选A。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第四段“Growth doesn’t come from talent alone but from the continuous application of effort. (个人的成长进步并非只源于天赋，更离不开持之以恒的付出)”以及第五段“Instead of focusing too much on outcomes or singing high praise for inborn talents, we should emphasize the learning process and continuous improvement. By encouraging a culture that values effort, we can help students realize that intelligence is not fixed but grows through hard work. (我们不应过度关注最终结果，也不应过度吹捧先天禀赋，而应重视学习的过程与持之以恒的自我提升。通过倡导一种崇尚努力的文化氛围，我们能让学生们认识到：智力并非一成不变，而是可以通过勤奋努力得到提升的)”可知，作者认为成长离不开持续的努力，要崇尚努力的价值。选项B“Sweat is the ink that writes a masterpiece.(汗水是书写杰作的墨汁)”强调了付出努力对于成就的决定性作用，与作者的观点高度契合。故选B。 D On January 27, 1999, two psychologists named David Dunning and Justin Kruger published a famous paper about what is now called the Dunning-Kruger effect (邓宁-克鲁格效应). Their research showed something interesting: people who are not very good at a certain task often have two big problems. First, they make poor decisions. Second, they don’t even realize how bad they are at it! Because they lack self-awareness (自我意识), they usually think they are much better than they really are. Why does this happen? It’s because judging your own ability in something requires the same kind of knowledge you need to actually do that thing well. For example, if you don’t know much about math, you also won’t know enough to see your own mistakes. So, you might believe you’re doing great when you’re actually struggling. On the other hand, people who are truly skilled sometimes think the other way. They may think that because a task is easy for them, it must be easy for everyone else too. This can lead them to underestimate (低估) their own ability. Later, a scientist named Dr. Helena Pearce and her team added a new idea to this theory. They found that the learning environment matters a lot. In one study, beginners were given short, clear lessons before they judged their own skills. After just a little training, they became much more correct in understanding how good — or how bad — they really were. In a follow-up test, the researchers wanted to know: were these learners just copying what the teacher said, or did they truly understand their weaknesses? The results showed that most people weren’t just repeating words — they said the lessons helped them “see what they didn’t know.” This new awareness made them less overconfident and more realistic. Although we still don’t know how long this improved self-judgment lasts, these findings could help teachers and trainers design better lessons worldwide. 12. What is the main focus of paragraph 2? A. The ability to judge oneself. B. The methods of judging oneself. C. The meaning of Dunning-Kruger effect. D. The root cause of Dunning-Kruger effect. 13. What do we know about Dunning-Kruger effect? A. It only affects inexperienced beginners. B. Skilled individuals often underestimate others. C. Short training helps make correct judgement. D. Low-ability people often think highly of themselves. 14. What was the main goal of the follow-up test? A. To prove the learners’ lack of skills. B. To explore how the learners changed. C. To test the long-term effect of training. D. To find out proper ways to improve training. 15. What is the author’s attitude toward Pearce’s studies? A. Unclear. B. Unfavorable. C. Positive. D. Doubtful. 【答案】12. D 13. D 14. B 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了邓宁-克鲁格效应的核心内容、产生原因，以及科学家海伦娜·皮尔斯团队针对该效应补充的新研究发现及其意义。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Why does this happen? It’s because judging your own ability in something requires the same kind of knowledge you need to actually do that thing well.(为什么会出现这种情况？这是因为判断自己在某件事上的能力，需要用到与把这件事做好所需要的相同知识)”可知，该段主要解释了邓宁-克鲁格效应产生的根本原因。故选D。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Their research showed something interesting: people who are not very good at a certain task often have two big problems. First, they make poor decisions. Second, they don’t even realize how bad they are at it! Because they lack self-awareness, they usually think they are much better than they really are.(他们的研究发现了一些有趣的事情：不擅长某项任务的人通常有两个大问题。首先，他们会做出糟糕的决定。其次，他们甚至没有意识到他们在这方面有多糟糕！因为他们缺乏自我意识，他们通常认为自己比实际情况要好得多)”可知，能力低下的人往往会高估自己。故选D。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中的“In a follow-up test, the researchers wanted to know: were these learners just copying what the teacher said, or did they truly understand their weaknesses?(在后续测试中，研究人员想知道：这些学习者只是在照搬老师的话，还是真的理解了自己的不足)”可知，后续研究的主要目的是探究学习者自我认知改变的本质和原因，即“是如何发生改变的”。故选B。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段中的“Although we still don’t know how long this improved self-judgment lasts, these findings could help teachers and trainers design better lessons worldwide.(虽然我们还不知道这种自我判断的改善能持续多久，但这些发现可以帮助全世界的教师和培训师设计更好的课程)”可推知，作者认为皮尔斯团队的研究成果具有实用价值，对其研究持积极态度。故选C。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5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。 The journey through teenage years is often marked by rapid changes and growing pressures.

C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了杰森因车祸双腿重伤，被医生预言可能无法正常行走，但他凭借坚定的决心重返赛场。比赛途中旧伤复发，在教练的引导下他学会了接纳疼痛并将其转化为力量，最终虽未夺冠，却战胜了内心恐惧，彰显了不屈的意志，并感悟到体育不仅是体能的较量，更是品格的锤炼。 【21题详解】 考查名词词义辨析。句意：两年前，一场车祸导致他双腿骨折，他的运动梦想化为废墟。A. ruins废墟；B. sight视野；C. demand要求；D. shape形状。根据前文“a car accident left his legs broken”以及后文“Doctors said he might never walk without a cane (拐杖), let alone run”可知，事故严重摧毁了他的运动能力，梦想因此“化为废墟”；介词短语in ruins意为“成为废墟，破灭”。故选A项。 【22题详解】 考查形容词词义辨析。句意：但杰森是坚定的。A. careful仔细的；B. lucky幸运的；C. friendly友好的；D. determined坚定的。根据转折连词“But”和后文他坚持参加比赛并克服途中巨大痛苦的表现，可知他并没有放弃，而是意志“坚定的”。故选D项。 【23题详解】 考查名词词义辨析。句意：然而，赛程过半，一阵剧痛刺穿了他的右膝，这是他旧伤的一个可怕征兆。A. turn转弯；B. pain疼痛；C. noise噪音；D. thought想法。根据后文“a terrible sign of his past injury”和“His speed slowed”可推知，旧伤复发带来“疼痛”，导致他慢了下来。故选B项。 【24题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：他曾领先的跑者开始超越他。A. comfort安慰；B. admire钦佩；C. rescue救援；D. pass超过。根据前文“His speed slowed”可知，由于他速度减慢，其他跑者因此“超越”了他。故选D项。 25题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：他感到想要放弃。A. flying飞翔；B. winning获胜；C. quitting放弃；D. explaining解释。根据前文“a terrible sign of his past injury. His speed slowed. Runners he had once led began to ____ him.”可推知，旧伤的疼痛和不断被超越的处境，让他产生了“放弃”的念头。故选C项。 【26题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：“不要对抗疼痛，杰森！接受它！”A. Hate憎恨；B. Accept接受；C. Miss想念，错过；D. Cause引起。根据前文教练的话“Don’t fight the pain”以及后文“Instead of fighting the pain”可推知，教练的建议不要对抗疼痛，而是“接受”。故选B项。 【27题详解】 考查名词词义辨析。句意：杰森没有对抗疼痛，而是放松肌肉，调整了步伐。A. tracks跑道；B. steps步伐；C. shoes鞋子；D. goals目标。根据前文他是在跑步，以及后文“He focused on the beat of his feet hitting the ground”可知，在跑步过程中应对疼痛，合理的做法是“调整步伐”。故选B项。 【28题详解】 考查名词词义辨析。句意：他专注于双脚落地的节奏，将疼痛转化为力量。A. power力量；B. sadness悲伤；C. waste浪费；D. memory记忆。根据前文他接纳疼痛并调整自己，这是一种积极的转化，将消极的“疼痛”转化为积极的“力量”。后文“He began to ____ his lost ground.”也印证了这种转化带来的积极效果。故选A项。 【29题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：他开始找回失去的阵地。A. hold握住；B. lose失去；C. survey调查；D. find找到。根据后文“One runner, then another”可知，他开始追赶并“找回”之前被超越的领先位置。固定搭配“find one’s lost ground”意为“找回失去的阵地/优势”。故选D项。 【30题详解】 考查名词词义辨析。句意：他不是在和别人赛跑；他是在和他自己的恐惧赛跑。A. enemies敌人；B. records记录；C. fear恐惧；D. teammates队友。根据前文“Fear rose in his chest”以及他想放弃的念头，结合后文比赛结果重在战胜自我，可知他真正的对手是自己的“恐惧”。故选C项。 【31题详解】 考查名词词义辨析。句意：他看到了终点线，那是一条充满希望的白线。A. hope希望；B. danger危险；C. light光；D. silence寂静。“the finish line”象征着目标的达成，对他这个曾被认为无法正常行走却坚持跑完全程的人来说，终点线代表着“希望”。故选A项。 【32题详解】 考查名词词义辨析。句意：他没有赢得第一名，但他脸上的喜悦却说明了不同。A. doubt怀疑；B. sadness悲伤；C. joy喜悦；D. worry担忧。根据后文“The crowd cheered”以及他战胜自我、完成比赛的成就，可知他脸上应该是“喜悦”。故选C项。 【33题详解】 考查名词词义辨析。句意：人群欢呼，不仅是为获胜者，也是为那个不肯倒下的男孩所展现的决心。A. speed速度；B. determination决心；C. honesty诚实；D. curiosity好奇心。全文核心是杰森克服身体伤痛和内心恐惧、坚持到底的“决心”，这正是人群为他欢呼的原因。后文“the race had built his will”也呼应了这一点。故选B项。 【34题详解】 考查名词词义辨析。句意：杰森意识到，体育运动不仅仅是关于身体力量的。A. strength力量；B. health健康；C. appearance外貌；D. safety安全。根据后文“They are a test of character”可推知，作者将体育的内涵从“身体力量”提升到“品格测试”。故选A项。 【35题详解】 考查形容词词义辨析。句意：他离开赛道，知道他已经准备好面对生活接下来抛给他的一切。A. responsible负责的；B. suitable合适的；C. ready准备好的；D. annoyed恼怒的。根据前文“the race had built his will”可知，这次经历磨炼了他的意志，让他对未来挑战“做好准备”；be ready for意为“为……做好准备”。故选C项。 第二节 语法填空(共10小题;每小题1.5分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文, 在空白处填入适当的内容（1个单词）或括号内单词的正确形式。 China has seven official ____36____ (holiday) each year, ____37____ (include) New Year’s Day, Spring Festival, Qingming Festival, May Day, Dragon Boat Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day.

I still remember a trip to the circus that left a lasting impression on me. In front of us in line was a family with eight children, all under twelve. They didn’t seem wealthy. Their clothes were not expensive, but they were clean. The children were well-behaved. They stood together, excitedly talking about the clowns, elephants, and other acts they were about to see. It was clear that they had never been to the circus before, and this experience promised to be a highlight of their young lives. When the ticket lady asked the father how many tickets he wanted, he proudly replied, “Eight children’s tickets and two adult tickets, please.” However, when she quoted the price, his lips began to shake. He leaned closer and asked for the price again, realizing he didn’t have enough money. My heart ached for those children, knowing how disappointed they would be. Actually, we weren’t wealthy, either. So I understood their feelings well, and I felt sorry for them. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为80左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Then I saw my dad pull out a $20 bill and drop it on the ground. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Then I saw my dad pull out a $20 bill and drop it on the ground.

Memorizing lists felt boring, and I often forgot words right after learning them. One afternoon, while browsing an online forum for students, I came across a post shared by a senior. It suggested linking words to daily life instead of just repeating them — and that small tip changed everything. I started with common words. When I ate pineapple for breakfast, I’d say its English name out loud and note how it combines “pine” and “apple” — a fun way to remember. For “homesick,” I thought of my cousin who felt sad when she first lived in her apartment downtown; that memory made the word stick. I even used “have a frog in one’s throat” when my friend struggled to speak after catching a cold — we laughed, and neither of us forgot the phrase. To make it more creative, I drew simple pictures next to new words in my notebook. For “sculpture,” I sketched a small statue I’d seen in the park; for “elevator,” a quick doodle (涂鸦) of the one in my building. I also spent 15 minutes each evening reviewing these notes, and slowly, I stopped feeling confused about tricky words. Last week, my teacher praised my vocabulary use in an essay. I realized learning words doesn’t have to be a chore — it can be full of fun if you find the right way. Now, I even look forward to discovering new words, eager to connect them to my life. 4. How did the writer first feel about memorizing English vocabulary? A. Fun and exciting. B. Boring and difficult. C. Easy and interesting. D. Surprising and useful. 5. What helped the writer remember the word “homesick”? A. A story about the writer’s cousin. B. A picture of a downtown apartment. C. A phrase from an online forum. D. A memory of eating pineapple. 6. What can we infer about the writer’s vocabulary learning method? A. It only works for simple words. B. It needs spending hours every day. C. It requires drawing professional pictures. D. It connects words to real-life experiences. 7. What can we learn from the writer’s experience? A. The writer’s cousin taught her many words. B. The online forum was created for vocabulary learning. C. Finding a proper way makes vocabulary learning enjoyable. D. The writer’s teacher gave her the idea of drawing pictures. C At top universities, there’s a phenomenon known as “Stanford Duck Syndrome (综合征)”. Like ducks, students appear to move gracefully (优雅地). However, beneath the surface, they’re kicking hopelessly to keep up. Experts from Stanford’s Health Services explored this troubling trend: during the day, many Stanford students are seen socializing in cafés, seemingly without any stress or the need to study. However, at night, they start studying, sometimes for the entire night, trying to maintain the image of effortless success. This comes at a high price: tiredness and anxiety are widespread. Furthermore, it leads to a common wrong idea: true talents achieve success effortlessly, while those working hard are less capable. In an effort to challenge this misconception (误解), researchers designed an experiment. Participants were asked to observe a series of colors carefully while scientists tracked their brain activity throughout the process. The experiment was divided into two parts: one with easily recognized colors and the other with colors that were quite similar, requiring more effort to recognize. As the difficulty of the task increased, there was a noticeable increase in brain activity, particularly in areas linked to memory and abstract reasoning. The study shows that as tasks require more effort, more areas of the brain become engaged. Growth doesn’t come from talent alone but from the continuous application of effort. Our brain functions like a muscle. Without effort, even our inborn talents will disappear over time. This pushes us to reconsider the culture behind that might lead to this phenomenon. Instead of focusing too much on outcomes or singing high praise for inborn talents, we should emphasize the learning process and continuous improvement. By encouraging a culture that values effort, we can help students realize that intelligence is not fixed but grows through hard work. Such a change would not only reduce the pressures related to the “Stanford Duck Syndrome”, but also have a big effect on personal development and the future of education. 8. What phenomenon does the “Stanford Duck Syndrome” probably describe? A. Choosing effort over well-being. B. Relieving stress through social activities. C. Showing graceful images to attract others. D. Hiding hard work to appear naturally gifted. 9. How does the experiment in paragraph 3 challenge misconception? A By proving focus improves brain function. B. By linking color recognition to intelligence. C. By showing effort fuels the brain activity. D. By connecting careful observation with talent. 10. What is the author’s main concern about “Stanford Duck Syndrome”? A. It causes stress and false ideas about success. B. It values the learning process over outcomes. C. It prevents students from recognizing their talents. D. It makes students value socializing more than studying. 11. Which of the following might the author agree with? A. Fortune prefers those with a clear mind. B. Sweat is the ink that writes a masterpiece. C. Work in silence and let success make the noise. D. Keep moving forward even when no one sees it. D On January 27, 1999, two psychologists named David Dunning and Justin Kruger published a famous paper about what is now called the Dunning-Kruger effect (邓宁-克鲁格效应). Their research showed something interesting: people who are not very good at a certain task often have two big problems. First, they make poor decisions. Second, they don’t even realize how bad they are at it! Because they lack self-awareness (自我意识), they usually think they are much better than they really are. Why does this happen? It’s because judging your own ability in something requires the same kind of knowledge you need to actually do that thing well. For example, if you don’t know much about math, you also won’t know enough to see your own mistakes. So, you might believe you’re doing great when you’re actually struggling. On the other hand, people who are truly skilled sometimes think the other way. They may think that because a task is easy for them, it must be easy for everyone else too. This can lead them to underestimate (低估) their own ability. Later, a scientist named Dr. Helena Pearce and her team added a new idea to this theory. They found that the learning environment matters a lot. In one study, beginners were given short, clear lessons before they judged their own skills. After just a little training, they became much more correct in understanding how good — or how bad — they really were. In a follow-up test, the researchers wanted to know: were these learners just copying what the teacher said, or did they truly understand their weaknesses?

I still remember a trip to the circus that left a lasting impression on me. In front of us in line was a family with eight children, all under twelve. They didn’t seem wealthy. Their clothes were not expensive, but they were clean. The children were well-behaved. They stood together, excitedly talking about the clowns, elephants, and other acts they were about to see. It was clear that they had never been to the circus before, and this experience promised to be a highlight of their young lives. When the ticket lady asked the father how many tickets he wanted, he proudly replied, “Eight children’s tickets and two adult tickets, please.” However, when she quoted the price, his lips began to shake. He leaned closer and asked for the price again, realizing he didn’t have enough money. My heart ached for those children, knowing how disappointed they would be. Actually, we weren’t wealthy, either. So I understood their feelings well, and I felt sorry for them. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为80左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Then I saw my dad pull out a $20 bill and drop it on the ground. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
