Recently, I’ve found many old photos of Mom, Dad, David, me and my first dog Coco. They meant a lot to me. I wondered how to keep them forever. Luckily, my son used a new app to clear up and improve some of the old photos. Looking at them brought back so many loving and happy memories. I even used one as my computer screen saver (屏保).
It is a picture of me sitting on my favorite chair, across from the wood stove (炉子) next to a bookcase full of old books. I am wearing my special Snoopy shirt and hugging Coco. There is a big smile on my face and a joyful shining light in my eyes. It was how I spent a lot of my winter afternoons as a girl, hugging Coco and reading an old book.
It is surprising how 60 years later that girl still lives inside of me. I still love comfortable chairs, warm stoves, Snoopy clothes, hugging dogs and reading books on cold winter days. But when I look in the mirror now, all I see is a thin face, grey hair, and lots of wrinkles (皱纹). The only thing that hasn’t completely changed is the eyes. They are hiding behind glasses now and full of wisdom (智慧) given by ages. But they still have that same joyful shining light.
Looking at the little girl smiling at me from the computer screen and that 66-year-old woman looking back at me in the mirror can be a little bit strange at times. They look so different. However, they are both me. We can’t stop getting older, but we can remain both joyful and young at heart forever.

A. Appearance changes over time, but happiness can remain.
B. Old photos can bring back happy memories to a family.
C. A new app helps an old lady go back to the joyful past.
D. Reading old books is a good way to pass time in winter.
30. Which word describes the writer’s feeling towards getting older?
A. Surprised. B. Excited. C. Accepting. D. Unbelieving.
C
Do you have a goal you want to achieve before your next birthday? Or by the end of the next ten years, perhaps? We often hear about the importance of setting goals. We may think of these goals as the key to our happiness—achieve them and everything will be perfect. But have you ever reached a goal and instead of feeling happy, you’ve thought, “Is that it?” Or, “Now what?”
That feeling has a name. It’s called “arrival fallacy” the illusion (错觉) that reaching our goals will bring us lasting happiness.
Whether it’s a new job, owning your dream home or anything else—there might be some initial (最初的) joy, but if you’re experiencing arrival fallacy, that may be followed by emptiness and pressure to achieve something new.
So why does this happen? Is achieving our goals is enough to make us happy? Not always. According to experts, we might be overestimating (高估) the happiness that such achievements will bring.
And social scientist Adam Dorr says we often make the mistake of imagining our goal as a fixed object, when really it’s just part of life. But Ben Shahar adds that arrival fallacy doesn't mean we shouldn’t set goals — in fact, we need them to help give our lives focus. They just don’t need to be put on pedestals (基座).
As well as large things, our goals should include many small things, like helping out more around the house or spending more time with family. Small but important goals that don’t just “end”. If we really want to beat arrival fallacy, we also have to work out what makes us happy. And in surveys, spending quality time with people we care about is Often number one for happiness.
Even if we do have clear career goals, experts remind us to think about enjoying the journey too—and not just the destination (目的地).
31. What is the main idea of “arrival fallacy”?
A. Achieving goals always leads to long-term happiness.
B. The belief that success will bring lasting happiness is an illusion.
C. Small goals are more important than big ones.
D. People should avoid setting goals to prevent disappointment.
32. According to Adam Dorr, why do people feel empty after achieving a goal?
A. They set too many small goals.
B. They view goals as fixed objects rather than part of life.
C. They ignore the importance of social relationships.
D. They focus only on helping others.
33. The word “fallacy” in “arrival fallacy” most likely means ________.
A. a logical truth B. a scientific discovery C. a mistaken belief D. a temporary feeling
34. How does the author explain the idea of “arrival fallacy”?
A. By comparing different types of energy.
B. By using examples like jobs and dream homes.
C. By listing historical events.
D. By judging social media.
35. What advice does the passage give to avoid arrival fallacy?
A. Stop setting goals completely. B. Focus only on the destination.
C. Value small, ongoing goals in life. D. Ignore family and personal relationships.
D

Recently, I’ve found many old photos of Mom, Dad, David, me and my first dog Coco. They meant a lot to me. I wondered how to keep them forever. Luckily, my son used a new app to clear up and improve some of the old photos. Looking at them brought back so many loving and happy memories. I even used one as my computer screen saver (屏保).
It is a picture of me sitting on my favorite chair, across from the wood stove (炉子) next to a bookcase full of old books. I am wearing my special Snoopy shirt and hugging Coco. There is a big smile on my face and a joyful shining light in my eyes. It was how I spent a lot of my winter afternoons as a girl, hugging Coco and reading an old book.
It is surprising how 60 years later that girl still lives inside of me. I still love comfortable chairs, warm stoves, Snoopy clothes, hugging dogs and reading books on cold winter days. But when I look in the mirror now, all I see is a thin face, grey hair, and lots of wrinkles (皱纹). The only thing that hasn’t completely changed is the eyes. They are hiding behind glasses now and full of wisdom (智慧) given by ages. But they still have that same joyful shining light.
Looking at the little girl smiling at me from the computer screen and that 66-year-old woman looking back at me in the mirror can be a little bit strange at times. They look so different. However, they are both me. We can’t stop getting older, but we can remain both joyful and young at heart forever.
26. How did the writer’s son deal with the old photos?
A. He threw them away. B. He improved them with an app.
C. He gave them to his family members. D. He used one of them as a screen saver.
27. What can we learn about the writer’s memories of her family?
A. They were mostly sad. B. They were happy and sweet.
C. They were too painful to recall. D. They were all forgotten over time.
28. What has changed about the writer over time?
A. She no longer likes to read. B. She looks less joyful than before.
C. She is no longer young but wise. D. There is no light in her eyes any more.
29. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. Appearance changes over time, but happiness can remain.
B. Old photos can bring back happy memories to a family.
C. A new app helps an old lady go back to the joyful past.
D. Reading old books is a good way to pass time in winter.

Do you have a goal you want to achieve before your next birthday? Or by the end of the next ten years, perhaps? We often hear about the importance of setting goals. We may think of these goals as the key to our happiness—achieve them and everything will be perfect. But have you ever reached a goal and instead of feeling happy, you’ve thought, “Is that it?” Or, “Now what?”
That feeling has a name. It’s called “arrival fallacy” the illusion (错觉) that reaching our goals will bring us lasting happiness.
Whether it’s a new job, owning your dream home or anything else—there might be some initial (最初的) joy, but if you’re experiencing arrival fallacy, that may be followed by emptiness and pressure to achieve something new.
So why does this happen? Is achieving our goals is enough to make us happy? Not always. According to experts, we might be overestimating (高估) the happiness that such achievements will bring.
And social scientist Adam Dorr says we often make the mistake of imagining our goal as a fixed object, when really it’s just part of life. But Ben Shahar adds that arrival fallacy doesn't mean we shouldn’t set goals — in fact, we need them to help give our lives focus. They just don’t need to be put on pedestals (基座).
As well as large things, our goals should include many small things, like helping out more around the house or spending more time with family. Small but important goals that don’t just “end”. If we really want to beat arrival fallacy, we also have to work out what makes us happy. And in surveys, spending quality time with people we care about is Often number one for happiness.
Even if we do have clear career goals, experts remind us to think about enjoying the journey too—and not just the destination (目的地).
31. What is the main idea of “arrival fallacy”?
A. Achieving goals always leads to long-term happiness.
B. The belief that success will bring lasting happiness is an illusion.
C. Small goals are more important than big ones.
D. People should avoid setting goals to prevent disappointment.
32. According to Adam Dorr, why do people feel empty after achieving a goal?
A. They set too many small goals.
B. They view goals as fixed objects rather than part of life.
C. They ignore the importance of social relationships.
D. They focus only on helping others.
33. The word “fallacy” in “arrival fallacy” most likely means ________.
A. a logical truth B. a scientific discovery C. a mistaken belief D. a temporary feeling
34. How does the author explain the idea of “arrival fallacy”?
A. By comparing different types of energy.
B. By using examples like jobs and dream homes.
C. By listing historical events.
D. By judging social media.
35. What advice does the passage give to avoid arrival fallacy?
A. Stop setting goals completely. B. Focus only on the destination.
C. Value small, ongoing goals in life. D. Ignore family and personal relationships.
【答案】31. B 32. B 33. C 34. B 35. C

【33题详解】
词句猜测题。根据“That feeling has a name. It’s called ‘arrival fallacy’ the illusion (错觉) that reaching our goals will bring us lasting happiness.”可知,“arrival fallacy”是指达到目标会带来持久幸福的错觉,因此“fallacy”在这里的意思是“错误的信念”。故选C。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据“Whether it’s a new job, owning your dream home or anything else—there might be some initial (最初的) joy, but if you’re experiencing arrival fallacy, that may be followed by emptiness and pressure to achieve something new.”可知,作者通过举例子,如新工作、梦想中的房子等,来解释“arrival fallacy”的概念。故选B。
【35题详解】
细节理解题。根据“As well as large things, our goals should include many small things, like helping out more around the house or spending more time with family. Small but important goals that don’t just ‘end’.”可知,为了避免“arrival fallacy”,文章建议重视生活中持续的小目标。故选C。
