Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. (A) As a kid, my identity was wrapped up in sports. I spent countless hours practicing basketball in my driveway. Yet for three straight years, I got cut from the middle school basketball team. Soccer seemed more promising. I’d played for nearly a decade, but when high school tryouts came, I still failed to make the team. Determined not to give up on sports, I turned to diving. At first, I was terrible. I could barely touch my toes without bending my knees, and I was afraid of heights. Still, I kept practicing. I often stayed at the pool until dark, leaving only when my coach forced me out. I believed that greatness was built through daily effort. Eventually, my persistence paid off. By my senior year, I had become an All-American diver and qualified for the Junior Olympic Nationals. Diving soon became more than just an activity — it became my identity. However, when I entered college, the sport I loved became something I started to fear. At that level, I could no longer beat more talented divers by working harder. Yet I kept pushing myself, partly because of one troubling question: If I’m not a diver, who am I? Psychologists call this identity foreclosure — when people commit too early to a particular identity and ignore other possible selves. After my freshman year, I began to rethink. I realized that diving was a passion rather than a life purpose. My deeper goal was to grow and contribute, and there were many ways to do that. Retiring from diving freed me up to spend the summer doing psychology research and working as a diving coach. It also gave me time to concentrate on my silliest hobby — performing as a magician. Since then, I have set an annual reminder in my calendar to rethink important parts of my life. Just as we visit doctors for regular health checkups, we can also examine our goals, habits, and relationships. Sometimes the most important step forward begins with the courage to rethink who we are. 36. Which one is true of the author’s experience with sports during his childhood? A. He spent much time practicing and refused to join school teams. B. He devoted himself to different sports but was unable to organize a team. C. He engaged in some sports yet failed to secure a place in school teams. D. He mainly focused on basketball before turning to diving. 37. The author kept pushing himself in diving even facing difficulties in college because ______. A. he realized he feared the sport he loved B. he could no longer beat more talented divers C. his coach encouraged him to train harder than others D. he was unwilling to question the identity he had formed 38. Retiring from diving allowed the author to ______. A. discover and pursue other interests B. regain confidence in funny hobbies C. devote himself to psychology research D. avoid the pressure of athletic competition 39. The author mentions regular health checkups in the last paragraph to ______. A. emphasize the importance of physical health. B. explain why athletes often visit doctors. C. remind us of the key step to gaining courage. D. illustrate the value of regularly rethinking one’s life. 【答案】36. C 37. D 38. A 39. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。 文章主要讲述作者从沉迷运动定义自我，到反思并重新认识自我、拓展人生的经历。 【36题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Yet for three straight years, I got cut from the middle school basketball team.(然而连续三年，我都被中学篮球队淘汰了)”和第二段中“Soccer seemed more promising. I’d played for nearly a decade, but when high school tryouts came, I still failed to make the team.(足球似乎更有希望。我踢了近十年，但高中选拔赛时，我还是没能入选球队)”可知，作者参与过一些运动，却没能在校队获得一席之地。故选C。 【37题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“Yet I kept pushing myself, partly because of one troubling question: If I’m not a diver, who am I?(但我仍不断逼迫自己，部分原因是一个困扰我的问题：如果我不是跳水运动员，我是谁？)”可知，作者不愿质疑自己早已形成的身份认同。故选D。 【38题详解】 细节理解题。根据第七段中“Retiring from diving freed me up to spend the summer doing psychology research and working as a diving coach. It also gave me time to concentrate on my silliest hobby — performing as a magician.(退出跳水让我有时间在夏天做心理学研究、担任跳水教练，也让我有时间专注于我最傻的爱好 —— 以魔术师身份表演)”可知，退出跳水让作者得以发现并追求其他兴趣。故选A。 【39题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Just as we visit doctors for regular health checkups, we can also examine our goals, habits, and relationships.(就像我们定期去看医生做体检一样，我们也可以审视自己的目标、习惯和人际关系)”可知，作者用定期体检来类比，说明定期反思人生的重要性。故选D。 (B) Join Whole Foods Market as an Associate Retail Floor Lead!

And if so, did the first bald man have the responsibility to take hair-growth serum (精华)? It was so fierce that considerations like: “Does the serum really work? And if it does, why is anybody bald?” became less important. I can’t remember how the debate ended because, sooner or later, give or take 25 years, everyone was bald, except for the ones who most definitely were not. Now in our 50s, the battleground is reading glasses and people handle them in small, sometimes amusing ways. One friend hates it when you never quite take them off, and just slide them to the top of your head, because she thinks it’s beyond physical laziness: the beginning of ruin, like eating with your hands, or putting your feet on the table. I love wearing my glasses on my head, because then I either know where they are, or forget where they are, and am wearing a pair on my face as well, win-win. But I hate it when people wear them round their neck on a chain, because it symbolizes that my decoration days are over. From now on, anything I hang off myself will be useful, and soon I will get a flashlight and a big bunch of keys, and I’ll be ready for absolutely anything except the fancy life. One of my friends can’t understand why everyone doesn’t have contact lenses (隐形眼镜). Another friend hates it when anyone’s glasses are attached to them by anything, because it means he can’t steal them, which he does constantly; often you can only find them again by following the sound of him shouting: “are these a THREE POINT FIVE?” Another friend won’t wear anything out of pride, and has the text size so large on his phone that I have accidentally read every text he’s been sent for the past five years, one giant word at a time. No kind of glasses can make us look younger, unless we all lose them together; then we’ll all look 25. 43. The men debated baldness fiercely because they ______. A. doubted whether hair serum really worked B. were uncertain about when they might go bald C. disagreed about how hair loss could be prevented D. worried that baldness would make them look older 44. What does the word “ruin” most nearly mean in paragraph 2? A. A decline in manners or standards. B. A loss of physical strength. C. A failure in personal relationships. D. A problem caused by poor eyesight. 45. By saying “then we’ll all look 25” in the last sentence, the author implies that ______. A. glasses can easily make people appear older B. losing glasses will make people look younger C. aging signs matter less when everyone shares them D. people should avoid wearing glasses whenever possible 46. What is the main idea of the passage? A. People argue about whether hair growth products are effective. B. People humorously discuss signs of aging as they grow older. C. Middle-aged people develop different habits when using reading glasses. D. Technology has changed the way people deal with vision problems. 【答案】43. D 44. A 45. C 46. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了不同年龄段男性对秃头、老花镜等衰老标志的幽默讨论与应对方式。 【43题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“In the middle of my 20s, there was a baldness (秃头) debate among the men: if one went bald, did it make them all look old? (在我20多岁的中期，男人们有一场关于秃顶的争论：如果一个人秃顶了，会不会让他们都显得老？)”可知，男士们激烈讨论秃头问题是因为担心秃头会让他们显老。故选D项。 【44题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段“One friend hates it when you never quite take them off, and just slide them to the top of your head, because she thinks it’s beyond physical laziness: the beginning of ruin, like eating with your hands, or putting your feet on the table. (一位朋友讨厌你从不把它们摘下来，只是把它们滑到头顶，因为她认为这超出了身体的懒惰：ruin的开始，就像用手吃饭，或者把脚放在桌子上。)”可知，朋友认为把眼镜推到头顶与用手吃饭、脚放桌上等不雅行为并列，是“毁灭的开始”，均体现“行为举止的退化”。故选A项。 【45题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“No kind of glasses can make us look younger, unless we all lose them together; then we’ll all look 25. (没有任何一种眼镜能让我们看起来更年轻，除非我们一起把它们弄丢；那样我们看起来就都是25岁了。)”可知，当大家都有同样的衰老痕迹时，这些痕迹就没那么显眼了，作者通过夸张表达“当所有人共同面对衰老标志时，个体差异 (如显老)便不再重要”。故选C项。 【46题详解】 主旨大意题。文章以男性群体对秃头、老花镜等衰老标志的讨论为主线，穿插不同年龄段(20多岁、50多岁)的幽默应对方式，如“把眼镜当头饰”“用链条挂眼镜”等，体现对衰老的调侃态度，主要内容是介绍随着年龄的增长，人们会幽默地讨论衰老的迹象。故选B项。 Section C Directions: Complete the following passage by using the sentences given below. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need. This Is Why Your Dog Growls (低吼) When You Pet Them Learning dog body language can be challenging for beginners. If your dog growls when you pet them, they’re likely saying “no”. Sometimes your dog growls to set a boundary: they don’t want to be petted right now. ___47___ So we should watch their body language and environmental cues to determine the cause of the growling. Warning Growls Warning growls might sound scary, but it’s just your dog saying “no”. If your dog gives a warning growl when being petted, it doesn’t mean they’ll bite, but means they don’t want to be petted at all. Never punish or ignore a warning growl. We want our dogs to be able to say no, and punishing communication makes them less likely to communicate with us in the future. ___48___ Pain-Related Growls Your dog might not want to be touched if it is hurt or sick. They might growl when you touch a certain part of their body because it hurts or just feels uneasy. It may also refuse to eat, play, or move around as actively as it normally does. If growling is unusual for your dog, a trip to the animal hospital is a must. Any behavioral change like this can indicate that something’s wrong, so a good check-up is needed to rule that out. ___49___ Only after a professional examination can you be sure what is wrong. Happy Growls Some dog types are more likely to growl even when happy! This might be super confusing for you. After all, how do you tell the difference? ___50___ Are they lying on their back in your lap, relaxed and enjoying stomach rubs? This is a sign of a happy puppy! Context is also important. For instance, many dogs will growl when you’re rubbing a good spot, like their ears. They’ll continue leaning into your hand, indicating they want more! A. However, dogs can also growl out of pain or happiness. B. The key, in this case, is to observe your dog’s body language. C. Delaying medical attention could make its condition even worse. D. Noticing whether your dog is comfortable with contact is important. E. Therefore, reacting negatively to such signals may stop their expression. F. This may cause a dog to bite directly, as it feels its signals won’t be noticed otherwise. 【答案】47. A 48. F 49. C 50. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍狗狗被抚摸时低吼的几种原因，包括警告性低吼、因疼痛低吼和开心时低吼，并提醒主人通过观察肢体语言与环境判断原因，正确应对。 【47题详解】 根据上文“Sometimes your dog growls to set a boundary: they don’t want to be petted right now.(有时狗狗低吼是在设定界限：它们现在不想被抚摸。)”可知，前文先提出一种低吼原因，结合下文“So we should watch their body language and environmental cues to determine the cause of the growling.(因此我们需要观察它们的肢体语言和环境线索来判断低吼的原因。)”可知，空处需要说明狗狗低吼还有其他原因。A选项（然而，狗狗也可能因为疼痛或开心而低吼。）承接上文一种原因，引出还有其他可能性，为下文判断原因做铺垫，符合语境。故选A项。 【48题详解】 根据上文“Never punish or ignore a warning growl. We want our dogs to be able to say no, and punishing communication makes them less likely to communicate with us in the future.(绝对不要惩罚或忽视警告性低吼。我们希望狗狗能表达拒绝，而惩罚这种交流行为会让它们以后更不愿意和我们沟通。)”可知，前文说明惩罚警告低吼的坏处，空处需要进一步说明后果。F选项（这可能会导致狗狗直接咬人，因为它觉得自己的信号不会被注意到。）承接上文，具体解释忽视或惩罚低吼带来的严重后果，符合语境。故选F项。 【49题详解】 根据上文“If growling is unusual for your dog, a trip to the animal hospital is a must. Any behavioral change like this can indicate that something’s wrong, so a good check-up is needed to rule that out.(如果这种低吼对你的狗狗来说不寻常，去宠物医院是必须的。任何这样的行为变化都可能意味着身体出了问题，所以需要全面检查来排除。)”可知，本段强调及时就医的重要性，空处需要说明拖延就医的危害。C选项（拖延就医可能会让它的情况变得更糟。）承接上文，强调立刻检查的必要性，符合语境。故选C项。 【50题详解】 根据上文“This might be super confusing for you. After all, how do you tell the difference?(这可能让你非常困惑。毕竟，你要怎么分辨呢？)”以及下文“Are they lying on their back in your lap, relaxed and enjoying stomach rubs?(它们是否仰躺在你腿上，放松地享受揉肚子？)”可知，空处需要给出分辨开心低吼的方法。B选项（这种情况下，关键是观察狗狗的肢体语言。）总领下文，引出通过肢体动作判断情绪的具体内容，符合语境。故选B项。 III. Summary Writing 51. Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible. Stop Being a People-pleaser Imagine this: a relative calls and says she is planning to visit you for the holidays, but you had your heart set on a quiet celebration with your family. Not wanting to disappoint her, you agree, and suddenly your holiday plans have become hers. If this situation sounds familiar, you may be a people pleaser. Instead of saying no to things you really don’t want to do, you say yes. While it’s reasonable to be a team player at work or be kind to family members, you have to do it at your own expense, which is unwise and unhealthy. But where does people-pleasing come from? More often than not, it’s a learned behavior from childhood. If you grew up in a family where you were not allowed to have a say, you may have learned to stay quiet to avoid unpleasant consequences. Additionally, there are several different characteristics that may contribute to people-pleasing. Perfectionists, for example, often assume that others hold the same high standards as they do for themselves. Consequently, afraid of not living up to these imagined expectations, they tend to prioritize others’ needs. Luckily, it’s possible to break away from the habit of pleasing others. It starts with saying no — awkward and uncomfortable though it may be, your well-being depends on it. Setting simple boundaries to protect your time, energy, and emotions also works. For example, don’t answer work emails after hours, stop lending money to that relative who never pays you back, or tell a friend who disrespects you, “Please don’t talk to me that way”. Finally, practice treating yourself as well as you treat others. You may have been raised to think caring for yourself is selfish, but always putting others before yourself will only wear you out. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Many people are people-pleasers who often please others by saying yes to things they dislike at their own expense, which is unwise and unhealthy. It results from childhood experiences and personal traits of perfectionism. To change the situation, we can get rid of it by saying no to others, setting boundaries and caring for ourselves. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了讨好型人格的常见表现，说明这种牺牲自我去迎合他人的行为是不明智且不健康的，分析了它源于童年经历与个人性格，并给出了学会拒绝、设立界限、善待自己等改正方法。 【详解】1. 要点摘录 ①Instead of saying no to things you really don’t want to do, you say yes. ②You have to do it at your own expense, which is unwise and unhealthy. ③People-pleasing is a learned behavior from childhood. ④Several different characteristics may contribute to people-pleasing. ⑤It’s possible to break away from the habit of pleasing others. ⑥Setting simple boundaries to protect your time, energy, and emotions also works. ⑦Practice treating yourself as well as you treat others. 2. 缜密构思将①②两个要点整合，概括讨好型人格的表现与危害；将③④两个要点合并，说明其形成原因；将⑤⑥⑦三个要点重组，梳理出摆脱这一习惯的具体方法。 3. 遣词造句 Many people are people-pleasers who often please others by saying yes to things they dislike at their own expense, which is unwise and unhealthy.

Maybe you’re practicing a language daily, or posting your ___1___ (late) achievements for friends to see. These little reminders are meant ___2___ (keep) you motivated, but after a while, keeping up with them can be tiring. No wonder people start asking: why do these habits form so easily, and can they actually be broken? Researchers ___3___ (study) social media habits for decades, and it turns out they’re driven by simple psychological rewards. Apps___4___ most users create profiles and interact with others provide rewards that encourage them to return. Sometimes, it’s obvious — a “like”, a comment, or a message. Other times, it’s quieter — a little moment of satisfaction or feeling ___5___ (connect). Over time, these rewards link the app to certain situations.

Even without carrying heavy equipment, I struggled to keep up with the group. Although I was slowing everyone down, I chose to remain ____23____, hoping others would not notice my difficulty. To my surprise, one of the more experienced hikers suggested taking a break. At that moment, I noticed a sense of ____24____ spreading among the group. It then became clear that I was not alone in ____25____ my discomfort. Many of us had been trying to present a stronger image than reality. For many people, being authentic — showing one’s true self — is far from ____26____. As social beings, we are used to adapting to our environment, which makes it difficult to ____27____ what we really think. We often assume that hiding our weaknesses will help us leave a more ____28____ impression on others. Yet both research and experience suggest otherwise. The ____29____ of authenticity are becoming increasingly apparent. In fact, studies show that authentic individuals not only feel more engaged but also help create a more supportive environment. Their behavior can gradually ____30____ the attitudes of those around them. Even people who do not intend to be authentic may begin to change. In this way, authenticity does not remain a personal quality but begins to ____31____ within a group, shaping the overall work atmosphere.

For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. (A) As a kid, my identity was wrapped up in sports. I spent countless hours practicing basketball in my driveway. Yet for three straight years, I got cut from the middle school basketball team. Soccer seemed more promising. I’d played for nearly a decade, but when high school tryouts came, I still failed to make the team. Determined not to give up on sports, I turned to diving. At first, I was terrible. I could barely touch my toes without bending my knees, and I was afraid of heights. Still, I kept practicing. I often stayed at the pool until dark, leaving only when my coach forced me out. I believed that greatness was built through daily effort. Eventually, my persistence paid off. By my senior year, I had become an All-American diver and qualified for the Junior Olympic Nationals. Diving soon became more than just an activity — it became my identity. However, when I entered college, the sport I loved became something I started to fear. At that level, I could no longer beat more talented divers by working harder. Yet I kept pushing myself, partly because of one troubling question: If I’m not a diver, who am I? Psychologists call this identity foreclosure — when people commit too early to a particular identity and ignore other possible selves. After my freshman year, I began to rethink. I realized that diving was a passion rather than a life purpose. My deeper goal was to grow and contribute, and there were many ways to do that. Retiring from diving freed me up to spend the summer doing psychology research and working as a diving coach. It also gave me time to concentrate on my silliest hobby — performing as a magician. Since then, I have set an annual reminder in my calendar to rethink important parts of my life. Just as we visit doctors for regular health checkups, we can also examine our goals, habits, and relationships. Sometimes the most important step forward begins with the courage to rethink who we are. 36. Which one is true of the author’s experience with sports during his childhood? A. He spent much time practicing and refused to join school teams. B. He devoted himself to different sports but was unable to organize a team. C. He engaged in some sports yet failed to secure a place in school teams. D. He mainly focused on basketball before turning to diving. 37. The author kept pushing himself in diving even facing difficulties in college because ______. A. he realized he feared the sport he loved B. he could no longer beat more talented divers C. his coach encouraged him to train harder than others D. he was unwilling to question the identity he had formed 38. Retiring from diving allowed the author to ______. A. discover and pursue other interests B. regain confidence in funny hobbies C. devote himself to psychology research D. avoid the pressure of athletic competition 39. The author mentions regular health checkups in the last paragraph to ______. A. emphasize the importance of physical health. B. explain why athletes often visit doctors. C. remind us of the key step to gaining courage. D. illustrate the value of regularly rethinking one’s life. (B) Join Whole Foods Market as an Associate Retail Floor Lead!

(C) In the middle of my 20s, there was a baldness (秃头) debate among the men: if one went bald, did it make them all look old? And if so, did the first bald man have the responsibility to take hair-growth serum (精华)? It was so fierce that considerations like: “Does the serum really work? And if it does, why is anybody bald?” became less important. I can’t remember how the debate ended because, sooner or later, give or take 25 years, everyone was bald, except for the ones who most definitely were not. Now in our 50s, the battleground is reading glasses and people handle them in small, sometimes amusing ways. One friend hates it when you never quite take them off, and just slide them to the top of your head, because she thinks it’s beyond physical laziness: the beginning of ruin, like eating with your hands, or putting your feet on the table. I love wearing my glasses on my head, because then I either know where they are, or forget where they are, and am wearing a pair on my face as well, win-win. But I hate it when people wear them round their neck on a chain, because it symbolizes that my decoration days are over. From now on, anything I hang off myself will be useful, and soon I will get a flashlight and a big bunch of keys, and I’ll be ready for absolutely anything except the fancy life. One of my friends can’t understand why everyone doesn’t have contact lenses (隐形眼镜). Another friend hates it when anyone’s glasses are attached to them by anything, because it means he can’t steal them, which he does constantly; often you can only find them again by following the sound of him shouting: “are these a THREE POINT FIVE?” Another friend won’t wear anything out of pride, and has the text size so large on his phone that I have accidentally read every text he’s been sent for the past five years, one giant word at a time. No kind of glasses can make us look younger, unless we all lose them together; then we’ll all look 25. 43. The men debated baldness fiercely because they ______.

This Is Why Your Dog Growls (低吼) When You Pet Them Learning dog body language can be challenging for beginners. If your dog growls when you pet them, they’re likely saying “no”. Sometimes your dog growls to set a boundary: they don’t want to be petted right now. ___47___ So we should watch their body language and environmental cues to determine the cause of the growling. Warning Growls Warning growls might sound scary, but it’s just your dog saying “no”. If your dog gives a warning growl when being petted, it doesn’t mean they’ll bite, but means they don’t want to be petted at all. Never punish or ignore a warning growl. We want our dogs to be able to say no, and punishing communication makes them less likely to communicate with us in the future. ___48___ Pain-Related Growls Your dog might not want to be touched if it is hurt or sick. They might growl when you touch a certain part of their body because it hurts or just feels uneasy. It may also refuse to eat, play, or move around as actively as it normally does. If growling is unusual for your dog, a trip to the animal hospital is a must. Any behavioral change like this can indicate that something’s wrong, so a good check-up is needed to rule that out. ___49___ Only after a professional examination can you be sure what is wrong. Happy Growls Some dog types are more likely to growl even when happy! This might be super confusing for you. After all, how do you tell the difference? ___50___ Are they lying on their back in your lap, relaxed and enjoying stomach rubs? This is a sign of a happy puppy! Context is also important. For instance, many dogs will growl when you’re rubbing a good spot, like their ears. They’ll continue leaning into your hand, indicating they want more! A. However, dogs can also growl out of pain or happiness. B. The key, in this case, is to observe your dog’s body language. C. Delaying medical attention could make its condition even worse. D. Noticing whether your dog is comfortable with contact is important. E. Therefore, reacting negatively to such signals may stop their expression. F. This may cause a dog to bite directly, as it feels its signals won’t be noticed otherwise. III. Summary Writing 51. Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible. Stop Being a People-pleaser Imagine this: a relative calls and says she is planning to visit you for the holidays, but you had your heart set on a quiet celebration with your family. Not wanting to disappoint her, you agree, and suddenly your holiday plans have become hers. If this situation sounds familiar, you may be a people pleaser. Instead of saying no to things you really don’t want to do, you say yes. While it’s reasonable to be a team player at work or be kind to family members, you have to do it at your own expense, which is unwise and unhealthy. But where does people-pleasing come from? More often than not, it’s a learned behavior from childhood. If you grew up in a family where you were not allowed to have a say, you may have learned to stay quiet to avoid unpleasant consequences. Additionally, there are several different characteristics that may contribute to people-pleasing. Perfectionists, for example, often assume that others hold the same high standards as they do for themselves. Consequently, afraid of not living up to these imagined expectations, they tend to prioritize others’ needs. Luckily, it’s possible to break away from the habit of pleasing others. It starts with saying no — awkward and uncomfortable though it may be, your well-being depends on it. Setting simple boundaries to protect your time, energy, and emotions also works. For example, don’t answer work emails after hours, stop lending money to that relative who never pays you back, or tell a friend who disrespects you, “Please don’t talk to me that way”. Finally, practice treating yourself as well as you treat others. You may have been raised to think caring for yourself is selfish, but always putting others before yourself will only wear you out. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ IV.
