B Last sprine,my neighbor Donna and I,both in our seventies.snent several hours in the glorious sunstsne enjoving the new season.When it was time to sit down and relax,Donna pulled out her red metal chair from her garage,and I sat on an overtumned plastic bucket.It was fun to catch up on the news that we had missed during the long winter indoors. However,over the next few days,it turned out that we needed more than a chair and a bucket which were not quite comfortable>Donna decided we needed a bench.After ruling out unsuitable options from local stores,she found a perfect one online.The next day it arrived.Excitedly,she opened the box and started putting it together.We proudly high-fived each other as the pieces joined up and the bencn srarted to look like one.After a few minutes'assistance from a neighbour,it was assembled.What's more,it was ideal for two 70-somethings to carry on late aftemoon chats. Soon,the bench attracted other neighbors.One day,someone called out from the sidewalk "What do you do on that bench?"Ouick-thinking Donna shouted back,"It's our 'Thinking Bench'! We think about important things happening in our lives."Then,the name gradually evolved-after one neighbor sat alone deep in thought,he declared it a "Decision-Making Bench";another time, when-fonna was caught napping she insisted she was "meditating ()"adding yet another name. Last fall,with the temperature falling,our outdoor days come to an end.We were faced with one dilemma-what to do about it in the winter?Well,we sat down and thought and meditated and decided to put it in Donna's garage tor tne winter. When I glimpsed it a few times over the next months,the bench sat lonely holding empty flower pots,and some flat,old boxes.But now after a lone winteg spnng flowers are ready to bloom in the warm sunshine,and we neighbours are reaay to welcome "The Bench"back into our lives. 24.Donna decided to replace the chair and bucketto A.lighten the carrying load B attract more neighbours C:get better seating for conversations D.adapt to warmer weather 25.How did the bench get its various names?

You have put your phone in your bag.Despite the urge to check it once in a while,you teel focused. Do you think you re having a productive time? Think again.We tend to believe putting our phone face-side down on our desk or in our bag is enough to prevent us from being distracted.However,a recent study revcals that the mere presence of your phone,even if it's out of sight,can be a distraction to your brain-a concept known as "brain drain". 1o test the "brain drain"theory,548 college students at the University of Texas were divided into three groups and asked to complete a set or brain performance tests,with their phones facing down on their desk,in their bag,or outside the room.Researchers found that the group with their phones in another room scored significantly higher.An analysis of 22 studies extends this line of researclu indicating the mere presence of smartphones creates a "brain drain"and that the farther away they are from the users.the easierit-is for them to concentrate.Why? Our brains can only tocus on a small amount bf information at once,and need to prioritize what is the most ever-present and retevant,like smartpnones.In fact,we engage with the device an average ot more than 150 times a day,which means-we are rarely foeused on a task for more.than a tew minutes without our attenton being divided.This over-reliance on smartphones trains our brain to be inattentive,leaving less-space for other tasks. As our phones constantly battle for our attention,how can we nrevent them from negatively impacting our performance at work?A good starting point is to educate ourselves on the impact of phone usage on our brains so we-can make more intormed decisions when working on a task.To further improve our productivity,we should also remember to place our phone outside the room, rather than simply tum it upside down or silence it right beside us. 28.What does the author open the text with? A.A heated discussion. B.A vividly-described painting. C.A well-known theory D.A common misunderstanding. 29.Why is the analysis of 22 studies eitcd? A.To confirm previous findings. B.To analyze studies'outcomes. C.To compare research methods. D.To track subjects performances 30.What causes a"brain drain"according,to-the test? A.The lack of conceniration training. B.The limited capacity of our brains. C.The overload of online.information D.The mindful use of digital devices. 3..How can we avoid distractions from phones at work? A.By reducing our phone's usage. B.By switching smartphones to silent-mode. C.By covering our phone's screen. D.By separating work zones and phone zones. D Philosophers have a bad reputatierr for expressing themselves in a dry and boring w ay.The ideals for most pbilosophrcal wnting are precision,clanty,and the sort of conceptual analysis that leaves no fair un-split. There is nothing wrong with clarity,precision,and the like-but this isn't the only way to do philosophy.Outside academic jourals,abstract philosophical ideas are often expressed through literature,clnema,and song.There's nothing that grabs attention like a good story,and there are some great philosophical stories that delieht and engage,rather than putting the reader to sleep. One of the great things about this is that.unlike tormal philesopny.which tres to be very'clear stories don't wear their meanings on their sleeve-they require interpretation,and otten express 高二英语试图第4页共8页 餐S扫描全能王 额元人■在用的日量Ae 0……2…-42 conflicting ideas that the reader has to wrestle with. Consider what philosophers call the metaphrysics(形而上学)of race一an area of philosophy that explores the question of whether or not race is real.There are three main positions that you can take on these questions.You might think that a person's race is written in their genes (a position known as "biological realism").Or you might think of race as socially real,like days of the week or currencies ("social constructionism").Finally,you might think that races are unreal-that they're more like leprechauns(一种魔法精灵)than they are like Thursdays or dollars(anti-realism"). A great example of a story taking on race is George S.Schuyler's novel Black No More.In the book,a Black scientist named Croukman invents a procedure that makes Black people visually indistinguishable from Whites.Thousands of African Americans flock to Crookman's Black No More clinics and pay him their bard-eamned cash to undergo the procedure White racists can no longer distinguish those people who are 'treally'White from those wno merely appear to be White. In the tinal episoae,Crookman discovers thaf new Whites are actually a whiter shade of pale than those wno were bom that way,which kicks off a trend of sunbathing to darken one's skin- darkening it so as to look more White. .Philosophically rich stones like this bring more technical works to life.They are stories to chew on. 32.What is the impression formal philosophy leaves on people according to Paragraph 1? A Dull. B.Engaging. C.Thought-provoking. D.Depressing. 63 What is the distinction ofphilosophical stories? A.1hey give precise conceptualunatysis. D.They seldom express conflicting ideas. C.They interpret ideas fermalky and clearly D.They stimulate interest and crtical thinking. 34.Which of the following ideas is in line with the content of Black No More in Paragraph 5? A.Racial issues caused by slan colors. B.A society view on race and self-image C.Black people accepted by the white society. D.The origin of sunbathing among white people. 35.What is the hest title for the text? A.Stories Made Easy B.Positions in Philosophy C.Stories to Think with D.Nature of Philosophical Writing 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Don't Rush Through Books I love books.I love reading.I do it as much as I can.I tell people they should do the same.But when thear that peopie are using apps to try to read more in less time:I just shake my head.Guys, you're doing it wronal Reading is like eating dating,and travelling.The whoie point is to tind pleasure and meanmg in it.36 Unfortunately,reading always falls'victim to seeking productivity shortcuts.People may rush through books over the dinner table to save ten minutes but willingly fly across the country for a three-day conference where-nothing gets accomplished Aetually,such an act tends to be penny-wase and pound toolish.3T Simply put,you don't need to squeeze reading into the in-hetween moments ot your rte:you need to squeeze out the non-essentals and make reading,and reading well.the priority.

Everything changed unexpectedly ond Saturday afternaon.

On a cold evening,after Cloud accidentally spilled a cup of water onto my homework,I lost my temper and shouted.The room fell silent.Cloud jumped down at once and hid under the sofa. curling up into a ball and not taking a single step out.Lily looked up at me,tears welling in her eyes.
