【19题详解】
句意:此外,即使失败很多次,他们也总是相信自己。
孩子始终自信,always意为“总是”,语气最强且贴合孩子始终自信的特点;hardly几乎不,sometimes有时,often经常均不如always贴切。
【20题详解】

A comfort zone is a place or a situation where people feel safe and have the least stress. In this zone, everything is familiar and easy. However, stepping out of the comfort zone and into the learning zone is very important. Here are the reasons.
Stepping out of your comfort zone helps you improve your abilities. When we try something new, we have a chance to learn new skills and develop ourselves. If we only stick to the same routine (常规), it is hard to make progress.
Taking risks helps us become braver and more confident. As children, we’re natural risk-takers. But as we get older, we start trying fewer new things and become more afraid of failure. In fact, failure is a natural part of learning. Each time we try again after failing, we become more confident and less afraid of challenges.
It prepares us for future challenges and keeps our minds active. As we grow older, we meet more new challenges, our comfort zone becomes smaller. However, the more we try, the more our comfort zone expands. We will gradually feel comfortable about more difficulties.
However, don’t push yourself too far. Have you heard of “Yerkes-Dodson Law”? It means performance increases as stress grows, but only up to a point. If the level of stress becomes too high, performance will go down. When stress becomes too great for us to deal with, we enter the danger zone.
26. What is a comfort zone according to Paragraph 1?
A. A routine that helps people make great progress.
B. A place where people can feel the least stressed.
C. A zone where people can learn new things easily.
D. A situation that has the most stress to challenge people.
27. What happens to people as they grow older?
A. They lose all the natural abilities to take risks. B. They find learning becomes much easier.
C. They become much braver to try new things. D. They start to fear failure and try fewer new things.
28. What does the underlined word “expands” mean in Paragraph 4?
A. Becomes smaller B. Becomes larger.
C. Moves away. D. Stays the same.
29. Which of the following pictures can describe “Yerkes-Dodson Law”?
A. B.
C. D.
30. What is the best title for this passage?
A. Why do people stay in their comfort zone? B. Why should we step out of our comfort zone?
C. How does learning new skills help people? D. What happens when there is too much stress?
【答案】26. B 27. D 28. B 29. A 30. B
【解析】
【导语】本文解释了走出舒适区的重要性(提升能力、增强自信、应对未来挑战),同时提醒避免压力过大进入危险区。
【26题详解】
第一段指出:“A comfort zone is a place or a situation where people feel safe and have the least stress.”,明确指出舒适区是让人感到最不紧张(the least stress)的地方或情境。选项“A place where people can feel the least stressed”与此完全一致。
【27题详解】
第三段指出:“As children, we’re natural risk-takers. But as we get older, we start trying fewer new things and become more afraid of failure.”,说明随着年龄增长,人们尝试的新事物变少,并且更加害怕失败。
【28题详解】
第四段指出:“As we grow older…our comfort zone becomes smaller. However, the more we try, the more our comfort zone expands. We will gradually feel comfortable about more difficulties.”,前半句说舒适区变小,后半句用“however”转折,说明多尝试之后舒适区会变大,从而能适应更多困难。因此“expands”意为“变得更大”,对应选项“Becomes larger”。
【29题详解】
第五段指出:“Yerkes-Dodson Law…means performance increases as stress grows, but only up to a point. If the level of stress becomes too high, performance will go down.”,该规律描述表现随压力增加而上升,但超过某一点后表现下降。这对应一个先上升后下降的倒“U”形曲线。A选项符合。
【30题详解】
文章第一段提出走出舒适区很重要,第二至四段分别从提升能力、增强勇气和自信、为未来挑战做准备三个角度说明原因,第五段补充不要过度施压。全文核心是解释“为什么我们应该走出舒适区”。选项“Why should we step out of our comfort zone?”准确概括主旨。

J. K. Rowling is the writer of the Harry Potter books. Today she is famous around the world, but her road to success was full of pains and gains.
When Rowling was young, she fell in love with reading and writing stories. She dreamed of becoming a writer in the future. However, after she grew up, life was not as easy as she had imagined. She had little money and had to raise her daughter alone. Even so, she did not give up her dream. Instead, she kept writing whenever she had time.
During those hard days, Rowling often wrote in cafes while her little daughter was asleep beside her. Writing gave her hope and strength and helped her get through those hard days. After a lot of hard work, she finally finished her first Harry Potter book. Excited but nervous, she sent the book to many publishers (出版商). Unluckily, it was refused again and again. Each refusal made her disappointed. However, she still believed in her story, so she kept trying. At last, one publisher accepted her book. Later, Harry Potter became one of the most popular book series in the world. Rowling’s life changed completely, and she became a successful writer.
Rowling’s story teaches us that growing pains are not always bad. Sometimes they make us stronger and help us move forward. If we keep our dreams in mind and never give up, our pains may one day turn into great gains.

Last term, I took part in a school English speech contest. I was so nervous that I forgot my lines and failed badly. I felt upset and wanted to give up. My English teacher noticed my sadness and encouraged me not to lose heart. With her help, I practiced my pronunciation every day and recorded my speech to correct mistakes.

A comfort zone is a place or a situation where people feel safe and have the least stress. In this zone, everything is familiar and easy. However, stepping out of the comfort zone and into the learning zone is very important. Here are the reasons.
Stepping out of your comfort zone helps you improve your abilities. When we try something new, we have a chance to learn new skills and develop ourselves. If we only stick to the same routine (常规), it is hard to make progress.
Taking risks helps us become braver and more confident. As children, we’re natural risk-takers. But as we get older, we start trying fewer new things and become more afraid of failure. In fact, failure is a natural part of learning. Each time we try again after failing, we become more confident and less afraid of challenges.
It prepares us for future challenges and keeps our minds active. As we grow older, we meet more new challenges, our comfort zone becomes smaller. However, the more we try, the more our comfort zone expands. We will gradually feel comfortable about more difficulties.
However, don’t push yourself too far. Have you heard of “Yerkes-Dodson Law”? It means performance increases as stress grows, but only up to a point. If the level of stress becomes too high, performance will go down. When stress becomes too great for us to deal with, we enter the danger zone.
26. What is a comfort zone according to Paragraph 1?
A. A routine that helps people make great progress.
B. A place where people can feel the least stressed.
C. A zone where people can learn new things easily.
D. A situation that has the most stress to challenge people.
27. What happens to people as they grow older?
A. They lose all the natural abilities to take risks. B. They find learning becomes much easier.
C. They become much braver to try new things. D. They start to fear failure and try fewer new things.
28. What does the underlined word “expands” mean in Paragraph 4?
A. Becomes smaller B. Becomes larger.
C. Moves away. D. Stays the same.
29. Which of the following pictures can describe “Yerkes-Dodson Law”?
A. B.
C. D.
30. What is the best title for this passage?
A. Why do people stay in their comfort zone? B. Why should we step out of our comfort zone?
C. How does learning new skills help people? D. What happens when there is too much stress?
C
