In 2004, a young museum intern Katie Salisbury made a discovery that would change her life. While working at the Los Angeles Chinese American Museum, she paused before a black-and-white photograph of an elegant Asian woman in a parade car. “That’s Anna May Wong,” the curator (馆长) explained. “She was Hollywood’s first Chinese American movie star.” Salisbury stood in awe — how could such an important figure be unknown to her?
Growing up in the 1990s, Salisbury had witnessed the lack of Asian representation on screen. She and her mother would excitedly point at the TV whenever actor BD Wong appeared on Law & Order. Now, learning about this pioneering actress from the 1920s, Salisbury felt both inspired and determined to share Wong’s story with the world.
Born in 1905 to Chinese immigrant parents who ran a laundry, Wong began acting as a teenager. Her breakthrough came in 1924’s The Thief of Bagdad, where her captivating performance as “a Mongol slave” earned critical praise. However, despite her talent, Hollywood consistently offered her stereotypical roles. Studios at the time not only avoided racial romance plots but frequently cast white actors in “yellow face” makeup for Asian characters.
Refusing to be limited, Wong took audacious steps in her career. She traveled to Europe, starring in British and German films that showcased her range. She later became a successful stage performer and, in 1951, made television history as the lead in The Gallery of Madame Liu-Tsong, the first U.S. series with an Asian American protagonist (主角).
Salisbury’s research reveals Wong as more than just an actress — she was a cultural pioneer who challenged stereotypes. “When Michelle Yeoh won her Oscar in 2023,” Salisbury notes, “it marked nearly a century since Wong began her fight for representation. Her story reminds us that diversity in Hollywood isn’t a new trend — it’s long overdue recognition.”
4. Why was Salisbury surprised to learn about Anna May Wong?
A. To have considered Wong her favorite actress.
B. To have found Wong’s photo rare and valuable.
C. To have thought Wong’s fame too extraordinary to believe.
D. To have been unaware of this groundbreaking actress previously.
5. What did Hollywood’s use of “yellow face” makeup indicate about their view of Asians?
A. They wanted to portray Asian culture authentically.
B. They aimed to train more Asian actors for major roles.
C. They held stereotypes and blocked real Asian portrayals.
D. They thought white actors performed Asian roles better.
6. What does the underlined word “audacious” refer to in paragraph 4?
A. Cautious. B. Bold.
C. Conventional. D. Predictable.
7. What did Salisbury think of Wong’s influence?
A. Stylish and trendy.
B. Pioneering and groundbreaking.
C. Underrated and overlooked.
D. Controversial and divisive.

Are you eating enough seafood?
Seafood is a nutrient-rich food, loaded with vitamins, minerals, protein, and omega-3 fatty acids — critical nutrients our bodies can't make. Studies show it benefits brain, eye, and cardiovascular health, so health authorities suggest adults eat at least two weekly servings (about 8 ounces). However, 90% of U.S. adults don't meet this standard.
Dietitians explain reasons: many don't know seafood's benefits, while others worry about commercial fishing's environmental impact, mercury (水银), or high costs. The wide options (shrimp, salmon, canned tuna) also confuse people. Experts say top seafood needs three traits: low mercury with high omega-3s, sustainability, and accessibility
Fish provides EPA and DHA (omega-3s) that reduce inflammation (炎症). Katherine Zeratsky from Mayo Clinic notes these “essential fatty acids” are key for the brain and nervous system. A 2020 meta-analysis of 900,000+ people found more fish lowers heart disease risk and related death. Another study of 670,000+ people showed those eating the most seafood had lower early death risk — half a serving daily cut it by 12%. The American Heart Association recommends 1-2 weekly servings, especially to replace unhealthy foods.
Most people need two weekly low-mercury servings: 4 ounces for adults/ teens, 1-3 ounces for kids(by age). Pregnant/ Breastfeeding people need 2-3 servings for babies' brain and immune development.
Top choices: Wild salmon (loaded with omega-3s, low toxins, sustainable; canned/ frozen are cheap) and small fish like sardines (high omega-3s, low on the food chain, low mercury, sustainable), easy to use in recipes like mackerel toasts.
Unsure how to cook or prepare them? For a little inspiration, read about how to get hooked on tinned fish. Then try these easy recipes for Mackerel Toasts, a Winter Salad with Crunchy Greens and Sardines, and Spaghetti with Anchovy, Lemon and Arugula.
8. What can we learn about seafood consumption in the U.S.?
A. Most people dislike the taste.
B. It's mainly consumed by athletes.
C. Children consume more than adults.
D. Few adults meet the recommended intake.
9. Which benefit of omega-3 fatty acids is specifically mentioned?
A. Supporting nervous system.
B. Enhancing skin condition.
C. Improving muscle growth.
D. Strengthening bone density.
10. Why are wild salmon and sardines recommended as top seafood choices?
A. They contain no mercury at all.
B. They are the cheapest seafood options.
C. They are rich in omega-3s and sustainable.
D. They are most suitable for pregnant women.
11. What would be the best title for this article?
A. The Dangers of Mercury in Seafood
B. Why Seafood Should Be Part of Your Diet
C. A Complete Guide to Sustainable Fishing
D. How to Cook Restaurant-Quality Fish Dishes

Across the flat plateau of AlUla in Saudi Arabia, shades of gray- brown soil are dotted with areas of dark rock —— and a clearly defined circle of stones. Unmistakably constructed by humans, this structure, called “standing stone circles” by Archaeologists, was built around 7,500 years ago by a people we barely know for a purpose we have long misunderstood.
In 2019, archaeologists from the University of Western Australia began excavating (发掘) these standing stone circles. Their initial idea was that these were structures built by Neolithic nomads (新石器时代的游牧民) for some long- forgotten religious practices. However, excavating at multiple sites, they found what turned out to be archaeological pay dirt — domestic rubbish. The remains of discarded animal bones, household tools, and even jewelry, have reclassified the standing stone circles as Neolithic homes.
Standing stone circles seem to have sprung up around 5,800 to 5,500 B. C. This coincided with a warmer climate in the region that brought more regular rainfall and a landscape of rich grasses and trees, good conditions for raising cattle and goats. But these were also good conditions for building permanent structures. More abundant vegetation meant less pressure to keep moving the animals to fresh grasslands, which made building homes more worthwhile. This, and the plateau’s abundance of stones, may have encouraged the nomads to stay a while and build.
Excavations of these settlements are revealing something of this people’s way of life. They kept cattle and goats for meat, but continued to hunt and gather to expand their diet with hare, fruits and nuts. The many grinding(磨碎) stones found on the sites suggest inhabitants were regularly grinding grains, but these were likely to be gathered rather than farmed. The plateau sites have also revealed tools made with materials from the sandstone valleys and jewelry shaped from shells from the Red Sea —— these Neolithic people had a complex culture involving travel and probably exchange.
The revelation overturns many of our assumptions about Neolithic AlUla. Here were a people more settled and more civilized than history has given them credit for. Their story is just beginning to be revealed, but already a very different picture of early AlUla is emerging.
12. What did the 2019 excavation finally identify the “standing stone circles” as?
A. Religious sites. B. Natural wonders.
C. Rubbish stations. D. Domestic buildings.
13. What was a contributing factor in the building of the standing stone circles?
A. The richness of plants. B. The worsening climate.
C. The need to store goods. D. The desire to raise more animals.
14. What is most likely true about Neolithic people’s way of life in AlUla?
A. They had interactions with other groups.
B. They planted crops and kept cattle and goats.
C. They relied entirely on hunting and gathering for food.
D. They made tools and jewelry purely from local materials.
15. What is the purpose of the text?
A. To promote a historical site. B. To provide some new insights.
C. To introduce an ancient population. D. To argue for some long- held beliefs.
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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项有两项为多余选项。
Everyone knows that it takes 21 days to develop a new habit. We probably owe this particular example of pop-psychology wisdom to Maxwell Maltz, the plastic surgeon who claimed to have observed that individuals who had had an arm or leg cut off took an average of only 21 days to adjust to the loss of a limb (肢体). ____16____. And therefore it must take 21 days to change a habit, maybe, perhaps!
____17____, as a new study by psychologist Phillippa Lally and her colleagues helps confirm. On average, her subjects, who were trying to learn new habits such as eating fruit daily or going jogging, took a depressing 66 days before reporting that the behaviour had become unchangingly automatic. ____18____. It couldn’t be just as easy to start eating a few more apples as to start finding five hours a week to study Chinese.
Self- help culture sticks to the fiction of the 21-day rule, probably because it makes habit change sound basically easy. ____19____. Our brains are designed to take short cuts, making as many behaviours as possible automatic. “Really,” asks the psychologist Ian Newby-Clark,“ what would be the point of having a habit that didn’t free up your mind to focus on more pressing matters?” Habits are meant to be difficult to change.
Another problem is that we tend to think about habit change wrongly. We want to, say, stop watching so much TV, but on the other hand, demonstrably, we also want to watch lots of TV — after all, we keep doing it. We’re stuck deep in what the Greeks called “akrasia”: deciding on the best course of action, then doing something else. ___20___. Simply stop watching TV is like dealing with a leaky bathroom tap by repainting the kitchen. What’s required is an alternative way to feel relaxed and happy. Maybe by looking at the problem differently we can slip out of them.
A. This is, of course, nonsense
B. The 21- day rule does have some scientific basis
C. We believe that habits are purely a matter of willpower
D. The way round this is to see that habits are responses to needs
E. Therefore, he reasoned the same must be true of all big changes
F. And some habits, unsurprisingly , were harder than others to make stick
G. One problem with this is discouragingly simple: changing habits is hard

Getting caught in a flood is no one’s idea of a(n) ____21____ day. Unless you’re Justin and Jessica Walker. It was August 2004.

Justin walked out and offered a ride and shelter from the increasing rain which was ____23____ in Richmond, Virginia. She recognized him from orientation (新生培训) a few days before.
“I was like, OK. Maybe he was seeking my attention,” Jessica later said. But it was raining buckets, so she ____24____. Buckets turned to barrels as Justin, ____25____ to Richmond, made a wrong turn onto Main Street, ____26____ the two people in the traffic disabled by rising floodwaters and abandoned cars. Just when the two thought their luck couldn’t get worse, a wave ____27____ over Justin’s car, flooding the engine and sending rainwater through the air vents. Suddenly, the water was up to their laps and rising. Justin ____28____ Jessica’s door handle and in one blow opened her door and pushed her out of the car.
____29____ rushing water and debris (碎片), the two made it to the steps of a nearby train station. They spent the next few hours helping others to ____30____ inside the station. Trembling in wet clothes, they shared a(n) ____31____ half-sandwich and a beer. At that moment their connection ____32____.
“I’m a person who needs a ____33____, and I thought if God isn’t giving me one right now, I’m a fool,” says Jessica. “And I knew: This is the man I’m gonna marry.”
If Justin hadn’t made a wrong ____34____, the two likely would have avoided the flood and may never have spoken again. Instead, four years later, Justin gained a wife ____35____ he lost a car.

The annual English Drama Festival was around the corner. All the classes were busy preparing their plays. In Class 10, however, they were facing a big problem. No one wanted to play the role of the bad king. It was a challenging role, requiring not only good acting skills but also the courage to be disliked by the audience.
When the teacher asked who would take the role, the classroom fell into dead silence. Everyone looked down, afraid to meet the teacher’s eyes. Lily, who was good at acting, also kept quiet. She worried that playing a bad guy would make others think of her as a mean person.
After class, Lily saw her deskmate Jack practicing the role of a soldier. Jack was not good at speaking English, and he stammered a lot when reading lines. But he kept practicing, reading the lines again and again. Lily was surprised and asked him why he chose such a difficult role.
Jack smiled and said, “Every play needs different roles. Even if it’s a small role, it’s important for the whole play. I want to try my best to help our class.” Lily was lost in thought.

Now, learning about this pioneering actress from the 1920s, Salisbury felt both inspired and determined to share Wong’s story with the world.
Born in 1905 to Chinese immigrant parents who ran a laundry, Wong began acting as a teenager. Her breakthrough came in 1924’s The Thief of Bagdad, where her captivating performance as “a Mongol slave” earned critical praise. However, despite her talent, Hollywood consistently offered her stereotypical roles.

Her story reminds us that diversity in Hollywood isn’t a new trend — it’s long overdue recognition.”
4. Why was Salisbury surprised to learn about Anna May Wong?

【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了博物馆实习生凯蒂·萨利斯伯里(Katie Salisbury)发现好莱坞首位华裔电影明星黄柳霜(Anna May Wong)的故事,并介绍了黄柳霜的演艺生涯和对打破亚裔刻板印象所做的贡献。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中““That’s Anna May Wong,” the curator (馆长) explained. “She was Hollywood’s first Chinese American movie star.”(“那是黄柳霜。”馆长解释说。“她是好莱坞第一位华裔电影明星。”)”以及“Salisbury stood in awe — how could such an important figure be unknown to her? (萨利斯伯里站在那里,既敬畏又惊讶——这样一位重要人物怎么她以前会不知道呢?)”可知,萨利斯伯里之所以对了解到黄柳霜感到惊讶,是因为她以前并不知道这位开创性的女演员。故选D项。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“Studios at the time not only avoided racial romance plots but frequently cast white actors in “yellow face” makeup for Asian characters. (当时的电影公司不仅回避涉及种族的爱情情节,还经常让白人演员化上“黄脸妆”来扮演亚洲角色。)”可知,好莱坞使用“黄脸妆”表明他们持有刻板印象,阻止了真正的亚洲人扮演亚洲角色。故选C项。
【6题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第四段中“Refusing to be limited, Wong took audacious steps in her career. She traveled to Europe, starring in British and German films that showcased her range. (黄柳霜拒绝被限制,在她的职业生涯中采取了audacious举措。她前往欧洲,主演了英国和德国电影,展示了她的表演范围。)”可知,黄柳霜拒绝被限制,前往欧洲主演了英国和德国电影,说明她采取了大胆的举措,因此audacious意为“大胆的”,与Bold意义相近。故选B项。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Salisbury’s research reveals Wong as more than just an actress — she was a cultural pioneer who challenged stereotypes. “When Michelle Yeoh won her Oscar in 2023,” Salisbury notes, “it marked nearly a century since Wong began her fight for representation. Her story reminds us that diversity in Hollywood isn’t a new trend — it’s long overdue recognition.”(萨利斯伯里的研究显示,黄柳霜不仅仅是一名演员——她还是一位挑战刻板印象的文化先驱。萨利伯里指出:“当杨紫琼(Michelle Yeoh)在2023年斩获奥斯卡奖时,距离黄柳霜开启为‘亚裔代表性’抗争的征程已近一个世纪。”她的故事提醒我们,好莱坞的多样性并不是一种新趋势——这是早就应该得到的认可。)”可知,萨利斯伯里认为黄柳霜的影响是具有开创性和突破性的。故选B项。

D
Across the flat plateau of AlUla in Saudi Arabia, shades of gray- brown soil are dotted with areas of dark rock —— and a clearly defined circle of stones. Unmistakably constructed by humans, this structure, called “standing stone circles” by Archaeologists, was built around 7,500 years ago by a people we barely know for a purpose we have long misunderstood.
In 2019, archaeologists from the University of Western Australia began excavating (发掘) these standing stone circles. Their initial idea was that these were structures built by Neolithic nomads (新石器时代的游牧民) for some long- forgotten religious practices. However, excavating at multiple sites, they found what turned out to be archaeological pay dirt — domestic rubbish. The remains of discarded animal bones, household tools, and even jewelry, have reclassified the standing stone circles as Neolithic homes.
Standing stone circles seem to have sprung up around 5,800 to 5,500 B. C. This coincided with a warmer climate in the region that brought more regular rainfall and a landscape of rich grasses and trees, good conditions for raising cattle and goats. But these were also good conditions for building permanent structures. More abundant vegetation meant less pressure to keep moving the animals to fresh grasslands, which made building homes more worthwhile. This, and the plateau’s abundance of stones, may have encouraged the nomads to stay a while and build.
Excavations of these settlements are revealing something of this people’s way of life. They kept cattle and goats for meat, but continued to hunt and gather to expand their diet with hare, fruits and nuts. The many grinding(磨碎) stones found on the sites suggest inhabitants were regularly grinding grains, but these were likely to be gathered rather than farmed. The plateau sites have also revealed tools made with materials from the sandstone valleys and jewelry shaped from shells from the Red Sea —— these Neolithic people had a complex culture involving travel and probably exchange.
The revelation overturns many of our assumptions about Neolithic AlUla. Here were a people more settled and more civilized than history has given them credit for. Their story is just beginning to be revealed, but already a very different picture of early AlUla is emerging.
12. What did the 2019 excavation finally identify the “standing stone circles” as?
A. Religious sites. B. Natural wonders.
C. Rubbish stations. D. Domestic buildings.
13. What was a contributing factor in the building of the standing stone circles?
A. The richness of plants. B. The worsening climate.
C. The need to store goods. D. The desire to raise more animals.
14. What is most likely true about Neolithic people’s way of life in AlUla?
A. They had interactions with other groups.
B. They planted crops and kept cattle and goats.
C. They relied entirely on hunting and gathering for food.
D. They made tools and jewelry purely from local materials.
15. What is the purpose of the text?
A. To promote a historical site. B. To provide some new insights.
C. To introduce an ancient population. D. To argue for some long- held beliefs.
【答案】12. D 13. A 14. A 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是说明文。文章介绍了沙特一处新石器时代的建筑,该建筑的发掘让考古学家对沙特新石器时代的游牧民有了新的认识。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段的“The remains of discarded animal bones, household tools, and even jewelry, have reclassified the standing stone circles as Neolithic homes.(被丢弃的动物骨头,家用工具,甚至珠宝,重新将站立的石头圈归类为新石器时代的房屋。)”可知,该建筑是新石器时代游牧民建立的定居地。故选D。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段的“More abundant vegetation meant less pressure to keep moving the animals to fresh grasslands, which made building homes more worthwhile.(更丰富的植被意味着将动物迁移到新鲜草原的压力更小,这使得建造家园更值得。)”可知,植被的丰富是促进游牧民定居的重要原因。故选A
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段的“The plateau sites have also revealed tools made with materials from the sandstone valleys and jewelry shaped from shells from the Red Sea —— these Neolithic people had a complex culture involving travel and probably exchange.(高原遗址还发现了用砂岩山谷的材料制成的工具和用红海贝壳制成的珠宝——这些新石器时代的人有一个复杂的文化,包括旅行和可能的交换。)”可推知新石器时期的沙特游牧民可能和其他地区的人群有往来。故选A。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章首段末句“Unmistakably constructed by humans, this structure, called “standing stone circles” by Archaeologists, was built around 7,500 years ago by a people we barely know for a purpose we have long misunderstood.(这个被考古学家称为“环状列石”的建筑无疑是由人类建造的,它是在大约7500年前由一个我们几乎不知道的民族建造的,我们长期以来一直误解它的目的。)”和最后一段的内容“The revelation overturns many of our assumptions about Neolithic AlUla. Here were a people more settled and more civilized than history has given them credit for. Their story is just beginning to be revealed, but already a very different picture of early AlUla is emerging. (这一发现推翻了我们对新石器时代的许多假设。这里的人们比历史上所记载的更加安定,更加文明。他们的故事才刚刚开始被揭示,但早期AlUla的一个非常不同的画面正在浮现。)”可知,本文介绍了沙特一处新石器时代的建筑,该建筑的发掘推翻了考古学家之前对于沙特新石器时代游牧民的设想,为该地区游牧民的生活方式提供了新的认识。因此推断本文的写作目的是提供一些新的见解。故选B。
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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项有两项为多余选项。
Everyone knows that it takes 21 days to develop a new habit. We probably owe this particular example of pop-psychology wisdom to Maxwell Maltz, the plastic surgeon who claimed to have observed that individuals who had had an arm or leg cut off took an average of only 21 days to adjust to the loss of a limb (肢体). ____16____. And therefore it must take 21 days to change a habit, maybe, perhaps!
____17____, as a new study by psychologist Phillippa Lally and her colleagues helps confirm. On average, her subjects, who were trying to learn new habits such as eating fruit daily or going jogging, took a depressing 66 days before reporting that the behaviour had become unchangingly automatic. ____18____. It couldn’t be just as easy to start eating a few more apples as to start finding five hours a week to study Chinese.
Self- help culture sticks to the fiction of the 21-day rule, probably because it makes habit change sound basically easy. ____19____. Our brains are designed to take short cuts, making as many behaviours as possible automatic. “Really,” asks the psychologist Ian Newby-Clark,“ what would be the point of having a habit that didn’t free up your mind to focus on more pressing matters?” Habits are meant to be difficult to change.
Another problem is that we tend to think about habit change wrongly. We want to, say, stop watching so much TV, but on the other hand, demonstrably, we also want to watch lots of TV — after all, we keep doing it. We’re stuck deep in what the Greeks called “akrasia”: deciding on the best course of action, then doing something else. ___20___. Simply stop watching TV is like dealing with a leaky bathroom tap by repainting the kitchen. What’s required is an alternative way to feel relaxed and happy. Maybe by looking at the problem differently we can slip out of them.
A. This is, of course, nonsense
B. The 21- day rule does have some scientific basis
C. We believe that habits are purely a matter of willpower
D. The way round this is to see that habits are responses to needs
E. Therefore, he reasoned the same must be true of all big changes
F. And some habits, unsurprisingly , were harder than others to make stick
G. One problem with this is discouragingly simple: changing habits is hard
【答案】16. E 17. A 18. F 19. G 20. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。本文探讨了关于习惯改变的一些常见误解,特别是“21天养成一个新习惯”的说法。
【16题详解】
根据前文“We probably owe this particular example of pop- psychology wisdom to Maxwell Maltz, the plastic surgeon who claimed to have observed that individuals who had had an arm or leg cut off took an average of only 21 days to adjust to the loss of a limb (肢体). (我们可能要把这个流行心理学智慧的特别例子归功于整形外科医生Maxwell Maltz,他声称自己观察到,失去一条胳膊或一条腿的人平均只需要21天就能适应一条肢体的失去。)”可知,此处陈述了Maxwell Maltz的观点。E选项“Therefore, he reasoned the same must be true of all big changes(因此,他推断所有大的变化都是如此)”承接前文,选项中的he指代前文的Maxwell Maltz,符合语境。故选E。
【17题详解】
根据前文“And therefore it must take 21 days to change a habit, maybe, perhaps!( 因此,改变一个习惯必须花21天,也许,也许!)”以及后文“as a new study by psychologist Phillippa Lally and her colleagues helps confirm. On average, her subjects, who were trying to learn new habits such as eating fruit daily or going jogging, took a depressing 66 days before reporting that the behaviour had become unchangingly automatic. (如同心理学家Phillippa Lally和她的同事的一项新研究帮助证实的。她的研究对象试图养成新习惯,比如每天吃水果或慢跑,他们平均花了令人沮丧的66天时间才报告说,这些行为已经变成了习惯性的行为。)”可知,Maxwell Maltz认为改变一个习惯必须花21天时间,但是Phillippa Lally和她的同事的一项新研究证实了Maxwell Maltz所提出的观点是错误的。A选项“This is, of course, nonsense(当然,这是无稽之谈)”直接反驳了第一段的观点,this指代前文的观点的内容即改变一个习惯必须花21天,该选项符合语境。故选A。
【18题详解】
根据后文“It couldn’t be just as easy to start eating a few more apples as to start finding five hours a week to study Chinese.( 开始多吃几个苹果不可能像开始每周抽出五个小时学习中文那么容易。)”可知,此处强调多吃几个苹果不可能像每周抽出五个小时学习中文那么容易。F选项“And some habits, unsurprisingly , were harder than others to make stick(不出所料,有些习惯比其他习惯更难坚持)”直接指出了不同习惯养成的难易程度不同,照应后文中将吃苹果和学韩语相对比的例子。故选F。
【19题详解】
根据前文“Self- help culture sticks to the fiction of the 21- day rule, probably because it makes habit change sound basically easy.(自助文化坚持21天规则的虚构,可能是因为它使习惯改变听起来基本上很容易。)”强调自我帮助文化坚持“21天规则”的虚构,可能是因为它想让习惯改变听起来很容易。G选项“One problem with this is discouragingly simple: changing habits is hard(一个简单得令人沮丧的问题是:改变习惯很难)”可知,该选项指出了坚持21天规则的一个主要问题,即改变习惯很难,对上述观点进行了反驳,指出了改变习惯的真正难度。故选G。
【20题详解】
根据前文“Another problem is that we tend to think about habit change wrongly. We want to, say, stop watching so much TV, but on the other hand, demonstrably, we also want to watch lots of TV —— after all, we keep doing it. We’re stuck deep in what the Greeks called “akrasia”: deciding on the best course of action, then doing something else. (另一个问题是,我们倾向于错误地思考习惯的改变。比如说,我们想停止看那么多电视,但另一方面,很明显,我们也想看很多电视——毕竟,我们一直在看电视。我们深陷希腊人所说的“akrasia”:决定最好的行动方针,然后做其他事情。)”可知,前面提到的是我们在习惯改变上的错误思维方式,即想要做某事(如少看电视),但实际上却继续做其它的事。D选项“The way round this is to see that habits are responses to needs(解决这个问题的方法是认识到习惯是对需求的反应)”针对前文的问题提出了解决方案即要理解并满足我们的真正需求,而不是简单地错误地改变某个习惯。故选D。

【答案】范文

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
The annual English Drama Festival was around the corner. All the classes were busy preparing their plays. In Class 10, however, they were facing a big problem. No one wanted to play the role of the bad king. It was a challenging role, requiring not only good acting skills but also the courage to be disliked by the audience.
When the teacher asked who would take the role, the classroom fell into dead silence. Everyone looked down, afraid to meet the teacher’s eyes. Lily, who was good at acting, also kept quiet. She worried that playing a bad guy would make others think of her as a mean person.
After class, Lily saw her deskmate Jack practicing the role of a soldier. Jack was not good at speaking English, and he stammered a lot when reading lines. But he kept practicing, reading the lines again and again. Lily was surprised and asked him why he chose such a difficult role.
Jack smiled and said, “Every play needs different roles. Even if it’s a small role, it’s important for the whole play. I want to try my best to help our class.” Lily was lost in thought.

【答案】参考范文
Hearing Jack’s words, Lily stood there, deep in thought. She felt a little ashamed of herself. Jack was not good at English but dared to take a challenging small role for the class, while she, who was good at acting, was too cowardly to take the role of the bad king just for fear of being disliked. She realized that every role in a play was important, whether it was a good one or a bad one. The success of the play depended on everyone’s efforts. She made up her mind to take the role and do her best.
The next day, Lily went to the teacher bravely. She raised her hand and said firmly that she wanted to play the role of the bad king. The teacher looked surprised and then smiled with approval. Lily practiced hard every day after class, trying to figure out the king's feelings and polish her lines. With her good acting skills and hard work, she played the role perfectly in the festival. Her class won warm applause, and Lily also understood that courage and responsibility were more important than being liked by others.
