第三节:阅读理解 (每题2.5分,满分37.5分) 从每题所给的四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
A
Four activities to take you out of your comfort zone and increase your confidence.
Camping
Whether it’s at a professional campsite, or just in your back garden, taking a weekend away from technology and spending time with loved ones - or just you - can bring you a real sense of freedom. You’ll realize how little you really need.
Cooking Class
You could go with a friend to ease you in, or make new ‘foodie’ friends there - search for classes in your local area online. Or, if attending a class might be a few steps too far for you, you can still breathe some life into your tried and tested kitchen favorites by exploring new recipes.
Clubbercise
Group exercise classes can have many benefits, but personally I’ve always found the concept terrifying. But the great thing about Clubbercise classes is that you can enjoy them in the dark! There are no eyes on you if you miss a step, so you can completely let loose and have fun - who doesn’t feel better after dancing?
Rock Climbing
Rock climbing helps to develop your problem-solving skills as you navigate your way up the wall. Plus, rock climbing is quite an accessible activity. As “seeing the route” is less important than “feeling” your way up or keeping balance, it can be great for those with visual problems.
36. What are you advised to do if you want to go camping?
A. Bring some friends with you. B. Take some classes in advance.
C. Leave your cellphone at home. D. Explore new ways of cooking.
37. Where are you supposed to learn about cooking classes?
A. From friends. B. On the Internet.
C. In the neighborhood. D. Through organizations.
38. What kind of activity does Clubbercise include?
A. Doing morning workouts outside.
B. Taking one-on-one training.
C. Observing others’ performance.
D. Dancing with people in darkness.
39. Which activity would you suggest to a short-sighted friend?
A Camping. B. Cooking Class. C. Clubbercise D. Rock Climbing.
40. What is the purpose of the text?
A. To report. B. To educate. C. To discuss. D. To recommend.
B
If you exhibit positive characteristics, such as honesty and helpfulness, the chances are that you will be thought as a good-looking person, for a new study has found that the perception (认知) of physical attractiveness is influenced by a person’s personality.
The study, which was led by Gary W. Lewandowski, has found that people who exhibit negative characteristics, such as unfairness and rudeness, appear to be less physically attractive to observers. In the study, the participants viewed photographs of opposite-sex individuals and rated them for attractiveness before and after being provided with information about their personalities.
After personality information was received, participants also rated the probability of each individual’s becoming a friend and a dating partner. Information on personality was found to significantly change the probability, showing that cognitive (认知的) processes modify (修改) judgments of attractiveness.
“Thinking a person as having a desirable personality makes the person more suitable in general as a close relationship partner of any kind,” said Lewandowski.
The findings show that a positive personality leads to greater expectation of becoming friends, which leads to greater expectation of becoming romantic partners and, finally, to being viewed as more physically attractive. The findings remained consistent regardless of how “attractive” the individual was formerly thought to be or of the participants’ current relationship status.
“This research provides a positive outcome by reminding people that personality goes a long way toward determining your attractiveness; it can even change people’s impressions of how good-looking you are,” said Lewandowski.
41. In the study the participants were required to ______.
A. try to make friends with each other
B. try to prove positive characters make people more attractive
C. exhibit negative characters such as unfairness and rudeness
D. rate one’s attractiveness by photos before and after knowing her or his personality
42. What’s the CORRECT order of how cognitive processes modify judgments of attractiveness?
a. find a person with a positive personality
b. view the person more physically attractive
c. want to make friends with the person
d. want to be his/her romantic partner
A. a→c→d→b B. d→c→b→a C. c→b→a→d D. a→d→c→b
43. Which of the following is WRONG according to the passage?
A. The research reminds people to pay more attention to the personality.
B. Personality can change people’s impressions of one’s appearance.
C. The judgment of one’s attractiveness always stays unchanged.
D. Positive personality may lead to more friends.
44. The passage is written in a(n)__________ tone.
A. subjective B. objective C. skeptical D. negative
45. Who are the intended readers of this passage?
A. People with positive characteristics. B. Good-looking people.
C. People with negative characteristics. D. General people.
C
You are a member in a full-time school called “life”. Each day here you will have the opportunity to learn lessons. You may like the lessons or hate them, but you have designed them as part of your curriculum.
Why are you here? What is your purpose? Humans have sought to discover the meaning of life for a very long time. What we and our ancestors have to overlook is that there is no one answer. The meaning of life is different for every individual.
Each person has his own purpose and distinct path, unique and separate from anyone else’s. As you are traveling your life path, you will be presented with numerous lessons you will need to learn in order to achieve that purpose. The lessons you are presented with are specific to you; learning these lessons is the key to discovering and achieving the meaning of your own life.
As you are traveling through your lifetime, you may meet challenging lessons that others don’t have to face, while others spend years struggling with challenges that you don’t need to deal with. You may never know why you are blessed with a wonderful marriage, while your friends suffer painful divorces, just as you cannot be sure why you struggle financially while your peers enjoy abundance. The only thing you can count on is that you will be presented with all the lessons that you specifically need to learn.
The challenge, therefore, is to arrange yourself with your own unique path by learning individual lessons. This is one of the most difficult challenges you will face in your lifetime, as sometimes your path will be different from others. But don’t compare your path with that of people around you and focus on the differences between their lessons and yours. You need to remember that you will only face lessons that you can learn and are specific to your own growth.
Our sense of fairness is the expectation of equality. Life is not, in fact, fair, and you may indeed have a more difficult life path than others around you, deserved or not. Everyone’s circumstances are unique, and everyone needs to handle his or her own circumstances differently.
46. According to the passage, how can the meaning of your life be realized?
A. Gathering different opinions from others
B. Taking the distinct path from others.
C. Learning the lessons presented to you.
D. Doing the different things from others.
47. From the passage we can conclude .
A. everyone has his own track to follow
B. unexpected things usually happen to the peers
C. a painful divorce must lie in financial problems
D a wealthy man must have a wonderful marriage
48. In your lifetime, the lessons you are faced with .
A. are beyond your power
B. keep you from growth
C. limit your development
D. help you with your success
49. Which of the following is TRUE?
A. All things should be equal and justice to everybody.
B. You should learn to deal with specific problems differently from others.
C. One has to fix his mind on unfairness of circumstances.
D. You can complain life is unfair whenever possible.
50. Life is called a full–time school, because .
A. it is full of all lessons to learn
B. you have plenty of time to learn lessons
C. you meet with specific lessons every day
D. you can learn many things helpful to you

Ghanaian photojournalist Paul Ninson was thrilled — and surprised. When he came to New York to study photography five years ago, he found a rich collection of images of life in Africa, past and present, in the city’s libraries, galleries and museums. Here he was thousands of miles from Ghana surrounded by more visual history of Africa than he had ever seen back home. That led to an idea: create a library of photobooks in Ghana, which allows people to learn about their own history and gives them the tools to tell new stories of the continent. This idea has been realized with the creation of the Dikan Center in Accra, Ghana’s capital. Dikan means “take the lead” in the Akan language.
To create the center, Ninson travelled around New York City for books to ship to Ghana. He searched secondhand stores on the Lower East Side, engaged in online bidding wars and reached out to publishers and galleries, some of whom donated hundreds of materials. He maxed out his credit cards and lined his apartment walls with books, using Uber and U-Haul trucks to transport the books to storage units he rented across the city.
He managed to amass more than 30,000 volumes — mainly about photography, filmmaking, but also issues of publications like National Geographic dating back to the early 1940s. Ninson had additional support from his friend and collaborator, Brandon Stanton, who started a GoFundMe that raised over $1.2 million for the founding of Dikan. In December 2022, the Dikan Center was opened. In a former residence that was renovated to house the center, anyone is welcome to sit with the African story as long as they’d like.
Michael Itkoff, a supporter of Ninson and the Dikan Center from the start, says photobooks offer a different visual experience in today’s world, which is often focused on the volume and speed of images available online. “The photobook allows for an intimate and more slowed down — and I would say elegant — experience of visuals,” says Itkoff.
51. What inspired Ninson to create the Dikan Center? (no more than 15 words)
____________________________________________________________________________________________
52. What efforts did Ninson make to establish the Dikan Center? (no more than 29 words)
____________________________________________________________________________________________
53. What does the underlined “amass” in Paragraph 3 mean? (no more than 5 words)
____________________________________________________________________________________________
54. Why does Michael Itkoff value the experience offered by photobooks in today’s digital age? (no more than 20 words)
____________________________________________________________________________________________
55. What do you think of Paul Ninson? Please explain. (no more than 20 words)
