I have sought love, first, because it brings delight — delight so great that I would often have sacrificed all the rest of life for a few hours of this joy.I have sought it, next, because it relieves loneliness — that terrible loneliness in which one shivering consciousness looks over the rim (边沿) of, the world into the cold lifeless abyss (深渊). I have sought it, finally, because in the union of love I have seen the vision of the glorious world that saints and poets have imagined.This is what I sought, and though it might seem too good for human life， this is what — at last — I have found. ① ② With equal passion I have sought knowledge.I have wished to understand the hearts of men.I have wished to know why the stars shine.And I have tried to understand the Pythagorean [毕达哥拉斯(学说)的] power by which number holds sway above the flux .A little of this, but not much, I have achieved. Love and knowledge, so far as they were possible, led toward the oasis.But always pity brought me back to earth.Cries of pain echo in my heart.Children in famine, victims tortured by oppressors (压迫者), helpless old people a burden to their sons, and the whole world of loneliness, poverty and pain make a mockery (嘲笑) of what human life should be.I long to defeat this evil, but I cannot, and I too suffer. This has been my life.I have found it worth living, and would gladly live it again if the chance were offered me.

I know exactly how you feel.Teenage life can be hard.You are not a kid anymore, because you are smart enough to observe and analyze your surroundings.However, you are still not an adult because there are still lots of experiences that you need to have and lessons that you need to learn from these experiences.To top it all, the hormonal (荷尔蒙的) imbalance in your body can really mess you up.I have been there.I was in it for six years exploring what life is about. As a teenager, I had a major problem completing my chores on time.And at that time, all that I needed to do was to finish my assignments, study for the upcoming tests and clean my room.Now, I have many more things to do：cooking, cleaning and working while striking a balance between all my relationships related to work, family and friends.That really is a lot of work.So, I will just give you one golden tip, quoting from Benjamin Franklin, “Never leave that till tomorrow which you can do today.” Life becomes much easier now because I finish all my work on time and I have enough time to let my hair down.Half the problems of a teenager appear because we hate doing things.We'd rather go and have fun than sit down and take on our responsibilities.That is why you have so much trouble in your life; your parents won't let you go out with friends because you haven't cleaned your room or your teacher is always criticizing you because you haven't finished your assignments. √ 解析： 推理判断题。根据第一段第二句可知，即使你有日常烦恼，如果你知道如何处理它们，你的生活也不会很难。由此可推知，本段作者想告诉我们青少年应该学习处理自己的日常烦恼。 语篇解读：本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者通过自己的经历告诉我们：如果你懂得如何处理日常烦恼，你的青少年生活就没有那么难了。 1．What does the writer mainly want to tell us in paragraph 1? A．Teenage life is tough. B．Teenagers can't enjoy life. C．Teenage life is changeable. D．Teenagers should learn more. √ 解析： 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“To top it all, the hormonal (荷尔蒙的) imbalance in your body can really mess you up.”可知，青春期的变化是让青少年的生活变得困难的关键因素。 2．What plays a key role in making teenage life hard according to the writer? A．The adolescent changes. B．The lack of passion. C．The failure of concentration. D．The unfamiliar surroundings. √ 解析：细节理解题。 根据第二段最后两句和第三段的内容可知，作者是以自己的经历为例来说服读者的。 3．The writer tries to persuade readers mainly by means of . A．quoting famous sayings by famous people B．setting his own experiences as examples C．listing all of his troubles in his childhood D．showing the numerous assignments for children √ 解析： 推理判断题。根据全文内容，尤其是最后一段最后两句可知，作者认为我们宁愿去尽情地玩，也不愿坐下来并承担我们的责任，这就是生活中有这么多烦恼的原因。由此可推知，作者建议青少年承担自己的责任。 4．What does the writer advise teenagers to do? A．Abandon their friends. B．Go and have fun. C．Complete their homework. D．Shoulder the burden. B Having been hard at work for years, Mel Robbins has enjoyed great fame for a long time: her podcast has been flying high in the charts since she started it in 2022, and she's been writing best-sellers for the last 10 years. But since the publication of her new book，The Let Them Theory: A Life-Changing Tool That Millions of People Can't Stop Talking About, she's become a phenomenon. It's been hard to find much media in the last few weeks that hasn't mentioned her. Here is what she said in the interview. The new book is inspired by what her elder daughter said when Robbins was being a “typical mom” at her son's high school prom (毕业舞会), trying to micromanage everything and upsetting everyone in the process. “It was that experience where you can't stop words coming out of your mouth, and once they're out of your mouth, you're trying to get them back，” she says, “My daughter, who was home from college, just held my arm and said ‘Mom, you're being annoying.’” “And my daughter just kept saying, like a chorus in a song, ‘Let him get his coat wet, let him ruin his sneakers, let them do what they want.’” Robbins continues, “And there was something about that moment: you know how people say, ‘When the student is ready, the teacher appears.’ That was the moment that it actually hit me. And I then said to myself, ‘LET THEM.’ And I finally found the long-lost calmness again.” This aspect of trying to give up controlling others makes up the central idea of the book. “This is the truth about life: your life is not about what's happening out there. All your power is in your response to it.” “Because I think we don't want to be so controlling, or have the world affect us so deeply, and yet we don't know how, because we tend to be so stressed out and upset.” √ 解析：细节理解题。根据第二段第一、二句可知，Mel Robbins因新书出版成为热门人物，过去几周多数媒体都提到她，即她因新书更加出名。 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了Mel Robbins因新书《不被他人左右：改变一生的工具》而更加出名，书中她分享了从女儿那里得到的启示，即学会放手，不要过度控制他人，并探讨了这一理念对生活的影响。 5．Which of the following makes Mel Robbins more famous? A．Her hard work. B．Her podcast. C．Her new book. D．Her life attitude. √ 解析：句意理解题。根据第四段第一、二句可知，女儿不断念叨“让他们做想做的事”，这恰好点醒了处于想控制他人状态的Mel Robbins，让她明白了不要过度控制他人，故画线句子的含义为“当一个人愿意学习时，正确的指引就会出现”。 6．What does the underlined sentence in paragraph 4 most probably mean? A．One can only learn when they meet a good teacher. B．When a man is willing to learn, the right guidance will show up. C．Opportunities come to those who are well-prepared academically. D．Teachers tend to show up whenever students actively ask for help. √ 解析：推理判断题。根据第四段中的倒数第一、二句可知，Mel Robbins对自己说“让他们去吧”后，找回了久违的平静，由此可推知她现在是一个平静的人。 7．What kind of person is Mel Robbins now? A．Annoying. B．Controlling. C．Stressed. D．Peaceful. √ 解析： 写作意图题。根据第五段的内容可知，书中核心思想是放弃控制他人，生活的关键在于对事物的反应，而非外界发生的事，由此可推知，作者写这本书是为了提醒人们并非所有的事都能被控制。 8．What is the purpose of Mel Robbins's writing? A．To give tips on parenting teenage children. B．To express concerns about life full of stress. C．To remind people that not everything can be managed. D．To advise people to focus on what's happening out there. Ⅱ.阅读七选五 On any given day, many of us wrestle with our fears.We might be considering changing a job or wanting to speak up for what's right when we see injustice (不公正)． 9 Or it says that we don't have the ability to create the life or world we want to have.The cycle often plays out in the same way. So, what should we do？ 10 Instead, we can choose to accept fear as part of the process of change and practice courage.Though courage is often thought of as an inborn character, it's actually a practice that can be learned for dealing with difficulty. 11 Here are two useful tips for dealing with fear and moving closer to courage. Listen without attachment.Many of us who are stuck in fear have an inner critic (批评家), constantly telling us we'll fail.Sometimes we adopt approaches to removing it. 12 However, if we can take time to listen to our inner critic without attachment — without the need to ignore or accept what it is saying — we're in a better position to learn from it. 13 Creating courageous communities gives us the support to face challenges.Sometimes our stories get in our way, and we need people who are doing similar work to help us see where we're getting stuck or what we're truly good at. A．Fear shows up in the body. B．You'll be more likely to make the changes. C．In other words, courage can become a habit. D．Don't see fear as bad or try to remove it when it arises. E．But a voice within us pipes up saying that there's no point. F．While we can get temporary relief, they don't actually make the critic go away. G．Surround yourself with like-minded people who also honor the values of courage. 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文，介绍了如何获取勇气以战胜内心的恐惧。 9．选E　根据空后“Or it says that we don't have the ability to create the life or world we want to have.”可知，E项符合语境。 10．选D　根据空后“Instead, we can choose to accept fear as part of the process of change and practice courage.”可知，作者不赞成“把恐惧看成不好的事情并在它一出现时就消灭它”的做法，并给出了“接受恐惧并锻炼勇气”的建议。故D项符合语境。 11．选C　根据空前“it's actually a practice that can be learned for dealing with difficulty”可知，C项符合语境。 12．选F　根据空前“Sometimes we adopt approaches to removing it.”可知，F项符合语境。 13．选G　根据本段内容可知，作者给出的建议是：和同样珍视勇气的人在一起。空后的“courageous communities”即指G项中提到的“like-minded people who also honor the values of courage”，故选G。 本课结束 更多精彩内容请登录：www.zghkt.cn $
