A recent study goes a step further: Make discomfort a direct goal. That’s more likely to motivate you 1 if you only focus on what you hope to learn. In the first of five experiments, the researchers assigned several hundred students training at Second City Chicago 2 (participate) in a small-group improvisation(即兴) exercise, and then instructed half of the group that their goal during the session was “to feel awkward and uncomfortable.” The rest, 3 (that) in the control group, 4 (tell) to “feel yourself developing new skills.” Members of the first group kept at the exercise longer than the others did and took 5 (great) risks. Experiments 6 (involve) other dimensions of personal growth—engaging in expressive writing, learning about gun violence, and hearing about opposing political 7 (belief)—produced similar results. Reframing anxiety as excitement has been proven a way to improve singing in front of strangers, and thinking of stress as 8 means to boost achievement demonstrated a stress-management technique. “When people reinterpret negative experiences as 9 (function), they are more willing to engage in tasks that call forth those experiences,” the researchers explain. “Instead of seeing discomfort as unrelated to the goal 10 a signal to stop, they will start perceiving it as a sign of progress toward their goal.” 六、阅读理解 （25-26高二上·河北·期末）In our daily life, many people tend to shy away from difficulties, choosing the comfort of familiarity over the unknown. However, facing challenges can unlock unexpected growth and opportunities. For me, saying “yes” to new challenges has been a key to self-improvement, even when fear tried to hold me back. An example lies in my experience with learning the piano. At the age of 12, I was invited to join a school piano recital (独奏会). I had only played simple pieces and had never performed in front of an audience. My hands trembled at the thought of sitting on that stage, but something inside me whispered, “What if I can?” So I took a deep breath and said “yes”. Practicing was far from easy. The piece I chose had complicated melodies (旋律). There were nights when I wanted to quit, frustrated by my mistakes. But each time I felt like giving up, I reminded myself why I’d said “yes” in the first place: not to be perfect, but to grow. Gradually, the music began to flow. On the day of the recital, though nervous, I played confidently. The applause afterward wasn’t just for the performance — it was for the courage to try. Looking back, I realize that saying “no” would have kept me in a safe but unchanging and inactive place. By facing the challenge, I gained not only piano skills but also the belief that I could overcome fears. This experience taught me that challenges are not obstacles but stepping stones. They push us beyond our limits and show strengths we never knew we had. In a world that often encourages staying within our comfort zones, dare to say “yes” to new adventures. Whether it’s learning a new skill, joining a competition, or helping someone in need, each “yes” is a chance to grow. Remember, growth begins at the end of your comfort zone. 1．Why was the author nervous about the piano recital? A．Her piano teacher was very strict. B．She didn’t like the piece she had to play. C．She had never performed in public before. D．She forgot the music during practice. 2．What did the author remind herself when she wanted to quit? A．She needed to be perfect for the recital. B．She said “yes” to grow, not to be perfect. C．Her family was expecting a great performance. D．The recital was too important to miss. 3．What does the author encourage readers to do? A．Try to learn some new skills. B．Face new challenges bravely. C．Take on difficult tasks. D．Help others in trouble. 4．What is the main idea of the text? A．Facing challenges leads to personal growth. B．Saying “no” to challenges helps us grow. C．People should face difficulties calmly. D．Playing the piano is easy with enough practice. 七、七选五 （25-26高二下·云南昭通·开学考试）The Benefits of Doing Challenging Things Many people choose to stay in their comfort zone and seldom try anything difficult or new. 1 They are often afraid of making mistakes or failing. However, challenging ourselves is necessary for personal growth and brings many valuable benefits. 2 Challenging ourselves is the best way to improve our abilities. When we push ourselves beyond our limits, we learn to solve problems, manage time and stay calm under pressure. These skills are useful in all areas of life. Overcoming challenges greatly builds our confidence. It encourages us to keep trying rather than give up easily. Each success we achieve makes us believe we can deal with more difficult situations later. 3 Challenging experiences make life more colorful and memorable. 4 Without difficulties to overcome, life would be simple but empty and boring. Challenges shape our characters. They help us develop important qualities like courage and perseverance. 5 These qualities help us achieve greater success in the long run. A．The more we practice, the faster we will learn. B．Challenging tasks help us develop new skills. C．Giving up when facing difficulty is a smart choice. D．We become more patient, determined and strong-minded. E．This makes us braver and more prepared for future challenges. F．Life becomes more meaningful when we have difficulties to overcome. G．This is because they feel uncomfortable with pressure and uncertainty. 八、完形填空 （25-26高三上·河北石家庄·期中）Since a young age, I’ve always struggled with claustrophobia (幽闭恐惧症).

(这段经历让我明白，挑战不是障碍，而是垫脚石。它们推动我们超越极限，展现出我们从未意识到的力量。)”以及全文内容可知，文章主要讲述了作者通过参加钢琴独奏会的经历，明白了面对挑战能带来个人成长，所以文章的主旨是面对挑战能带来个人成长。故选A项。 七、七选五 1．G 2．B 3．E 4．F 5．D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要阐述了做有挑战性事情的诸多益处，从提升能力、建立自信、丰富生活、塑造性格四个方面展开，鼓励人们走出舒适区，通过挑战实现个人成长。 1．上文“Many people choose to stay in their comfort zone and seldom try anything difficult or new.

When we push ourselves beyond our limits, we learn to solve problems, manage time and stay calm under pressure. These skills are useful in all areas of life.

A recent study goes a step further: Make discomfort a direct goal. That’s more likely to motivate you 1 if you only focus on what you hope to learn. In the first of five experiments, the researchers assigned several hundred students training at Second City Chicago 2 (participate) in a small-group improvisation(即兴) exercise, and then instructed half of the group that their goal during the session was “to feel awkward and uncomfortable.” The rest, 3 (that) in the control group, 4 (tell) to “feel yourself developing new skills.” Members of the first group kept at the exercise longer than the others did and took 5 (great) risks. Experiments 6 (involve) other dimensions of personal growth—engaging in expressive writing, learning about gun violence, and hearing about opposing political 7 (belief)—produced similar results. Reframing anxiety as excitement has been proven a way to improve singing in front of strangers, and thinking of stress as 8 means to boost achievement demonstrated a stress-management technique. “When people reinterpret negative experiences as 9 (function), they are more willing to engage in tasks that call forth those experiences,” the researchers explain. “Instead of seeing discomfort as unrelated to the goal 10 a signal to stop, they will start perceiving it as a sign of progress toward their goal.” 【答案】 1．than 2．to participate 3．those 4．were told 5．greater 6．involving 7．beliefs 8．a 9．functional 10．or 六、阅读理解 （25-26高二上·河北·期末）In our daily life, many people tend to shy away from difficulties, choosing the comfort of familiarity over the unknown. However, facing challenges can unlock unexpected growth and opportunities. For me, saying “yes” to new challenges has been a key to self-improvement, even when fear tried to hold me back. An example lies in my experience with learning the piano. At the age of 12, I was invited to join a school piano recital (独奏会). I had only played simple pieces and had never performed in front of an audience. My hands trembled at the thought of sitting on that stage, but something inside me whispered, “What if I can?” So I took a deep breath and said “yes”. Practicing was far from easy. The piece I chose had complicated melodies (旋律). There were nights when I wanted to quit, frustrated by my mistakes. But each time I felt like giving up, I reminded myself why I’d said “yes” in the first place: not to be perfect, but to grow. Gradually, the music began to flow. On the day of the recital, though nervous, I played confidently. The applause afterward wasn’t just for the performance — it was for the courage to try. Looking back, I realize that saying “no” would have kept me in a safe but unchanging and inactive place. By facing the challenge, I gained not only piano skills but also the belief that I could overcome fears. This experience taught me that challenges are not obstacles but stepping stones. They push us beyond our limits and show strengths we never knew we had. In a world that often encourages staying within our comfort zones, dare to say “yes” to new adventures. Whether it’s learning a new skill, joining a competition, or helping someone in need, each “yes” is a chance to grow. Remember, growth begins at the end of your comfort zone. 1．Why was the author nervous about the piano recital? A．Her piano teacher was very strict. B．She didn’t like the piece she had to play.

However, challenging ourselves is necessary for personal growth and brings many valuable benefits. 2 Challenging ourselves is the best way to improve our abilities.

Each success we achieve makes us believe we can deal with more difficult situations later. 3 Challenging experiences make life more colorful and memorable. 4 Without difficulties to overcome, life would be simple but empty and boring. Challenges shape our characters. They help us develop important qualities like courage and perseverance. 5 These qualities help us achieve greater success in the long run. A．The more we practice, the faster we will learn. B．Challenging tasks help us develop new skills. C．Giving up when facing difficulty is a smart choice.
