But I felt I had to divide myself in two-the serious scientist in public,the funny person in private.However,the first break in my public persona came in 2024, when I participated in a local live storytelling show.I took a risk and described an embarrassing moment from a trip to Thailand To my surprise,when people laughed. it felt like a hug rather than shame. The experience encouraged me to experiment with being silly at work.So,when Halloween came around,I delivered a lecture dressed in a pink animal costume.I began kicking off lab meetings by asking my graduate students what brings them joy. And I started the monthly get-togethers with colleagues,using odd outfits to set the mood.To my surprise,adding fun and humour into my work life didn't make me less effective or credible.Students seemed to find me more approachable.Humour also helped me open up with colleagues,which in turn led others to be more honest and truthful with me. But most importantly,humor has made me stronger.Last winter,my funding from the Environmental Protection Agency was suddenly cancelled due to the government's ecience cuts.After the shock and immediate sadness wore off,I turned to my playful side,writing several pieces of satire()and letting workmates draw my attention away with discussions about a 1990s music video.That's not to say I was living in denial.I knew I needed to find new ways to pursue my goals in an increasingly complex funding environment.But making jokes and sharing laughter helped me stay present and reminded me of how much joy I get from my team, whatever the circumstances. Ultimately,I have come to realize that being real at work is not a weakness,but rather a strength.For other scientists,that may mean talking more about hobbies or families.For me,it's humour.Now,more than ever,it's time to laugh. 西城区高三模拟测试试卷英语2026.5第5页（共13页) 影田全任 …2.4-2。。4 24.The author put on a serious face at first'to A.win the respect of her family B.keep her personal life private C.avoid distractions in her research D.appear professional and dedicated 25.How did the author most probably feel after the 2024 show?

D.Prioritize humour in your life C What do social climbers and gossipers(爱说闲话的人)have in common?My mother believes that both are morally suspect,a lesson we readily pass on to our children:avoid the cheater and the whisperer. But stories simplify reality.The most effective social climbers and gossipers possess a remarkable grasp of social structure to navigate (their social worlds. This skill isn't a moral failing;it's a cognitive(认知的)skill. Recent work from my laboratory shows that cognitive maps--mental representations of the social world-shape our critical social skills.Social success depends not just on whom you know but also on how well you understand the invisible architecture of your social world.Mapping this is no small task,as social networks are large and dynamic.Yet building such cognitive maps offers great advantages. 西城区高三模拟测试试卷英语2026.5第6页（共13页） 蠡田全任 To better understand social navigation,my collaborator and I developed studies to investigate how people build cognitive maps.,Across a year we tracked about 200 freshmen's friendships and asked them to report their understanding of others' connections. In one study,we discovered that those who rise to the top of the social structure aren't the most charming or outgoing-they're the best social mapmakers.The most influential people quickly build mental maps of their peers'connection;those initially influential but without accurate mental maps of the network did not stay influential for long. In a second paper,we examined whether mapmaking aids gossiping-a behavior that,despite its poor reputation,can be an efficient way to quickly learn about the ins and outs of the community.To understand how humans pull off this remarkable task, we wondered whether mapmaking helps predict where information will spread. Mental maps become quite useful in this case,as they reveal two key network features:someone's popularity and their distance from the gossip target.They help find a good friend-someone far enough from the target yet well-connected to spread information. How does the brain build these maps?In one of our recent studies,we discovered that the hippocampus and entorhinal cortex-一a neural(神经的)center known for navigating physical space-also carries a map of connections among people.The more strongly these maps are embedded in the brain,the better we are at brokering community ties.If the brain needs to quickly figure out where gossip might spread,knowing where the popular people are positioned or the key relationships that bridge the otherwise disconnected communities allows us to chart the sequence of ties that can efficiently cross the network. Strategic wayfinding isn't only for physical space.It is just as necessary to be able to effectively move through our social landscapes.Armed with a deliberately unclear map of their social community,skilled social navigators can do what no GPS can.They see the bridges before they're built,avoid the storms of gossip,and map out a course to common ground. 西城区高三模拟测试试卷英语2026.5第7页（共13页) 蠡田全任 28.As for his mother's belief,the author is A.disapproving B.supportive C.puzzled D.unconcerned 29.According to the passage,social cognitive maps can help A.control the wide spread of gossip storms B.memorize others'connections in social groups C.gain long-lasting social influence among peers D.choose well-connected people as gossip targets 30.What does the underlined word "brokering"in Paragraph 7 probably mean?

A.How to Interpret Social Skills B.Navigating Our Social Worlds C.What Lies Behind People's Social Behaviors D.Brain Structures Shaping Social Relationships D Knowledge is dead.Not in the sense that truth has disappeared or that learning no longer matters,but in the deeper,structural sense that knowledge,as a stable possession has lost its central role in human cognition.In a world where information is instant and increasingly available"on demand",the old idea of"knowing"seems to feel like an antique of another era. Artificial intelligence has also changed the structure of cognition itself. Understanding now unfolds as an iterative process rather than a final state. We iterate facts and ideas that "collapse the information function"into a construct that,in some instances,has never existed.Insight emerges through cycles,not conclusions,as knowledge changes from fixed maps to dynamic webs. Alongside this shift comes the collapse of academic monovision. Human perception,statistical inference,interpretive meaning,moral judgment,and 西城区高三模拟测试试卷英语2026.5第8页（共13页) 齧巴全赶 machine-generated pattern recognition now occupy the same cognitive field.No one perspective is sufficient on its own and depth arises from the perspective of multiple frames and learning to move among them. Education,however,is still largely organized in the context of that fixed map. Subjects are separated as if the world presented itself in disciplinary divisions. Mastery is assessed as if memorization were a reliable indicator of understanding This is where the idea of the learning studio becomes more than an educational experiment. A studio isn't defined by a single discipline,but by a question complex enough to demand many.Think about a studio centered on the biology of aging.Cellular mechanisms,statistical modeling,moral questions of longevity,and the social implications of demographic (change would gather in a single cognitive space.In these settings,students wouldn't move from class to class so much as move through cognitive environments.Science,mathematics,humanities,and computation would no longer be neighboring divisions but interdependent ways of making sense of a shared problem.Technology and AI wouldn't be present as tools of efficiency, but also as thinking partners that drive human achievement. Re-architecting education in this way also reframes its ultimate purpose-and this is the most critical point.The traditional endpoint has been certification or the preparation for the next stage.In a world where knowledge is dynamic and AI increasingly competent,that endpoint begins to look insufficient.What becomes more convincing is the idea of cognitive sovereignty.This is the capacity to remain the author of one's own understanding in the presence of an overload of information and persuasive technologies. For teenagers,this is not an abstract philosophical goal;it's developmental.The teenage years are when abstract reasoning and even identity are forming.An education that immerses students in integration and iteration can cultivate something more durable.Simply put,it builds a mind capable of handling uncertainty. 西城区高三模拟测试试卷英语2026.5第9页（共13页） 餐巴扫描全能王 然裔1亿人■在用的日量AP 220 32.Which of the following is a core feature of the learning studio?

If you want to give earthing a try,there are a few important things to remember. 39.It requires patience and perseverance.If you're new to the idea of earthing, you should find a professional to lead you.And once you've got the ball rolling,go full steam ahead.The more you work on grounding yourself,the faster you'll begin seeing improvements. While it isn't something that should be used alone to treat a condition,earthing can potentially be part of a self-care routine. A.Earthing,like other forms of treatment,isn't a quick fix. B That's the idea behind earthing,also known as grounding. C.When going outside is not an option,just ground yourself indoors. D Be observant of yourself and your surroundings and stay in the moment. E Experts suggest 30 minutes is enough time to begin enjoying the benefits. F.These methods include taking a walk on grass,across the sand or in the mud. G.Research shows a connection between earthing and measurable improvements in these health issues. 西城区高三模拟测试试卷英语2026.5第11页（共13页） 蠡国全任 -2。-。。。4 第三部分：书面表达（共两节，32分) 第一节（共4小题；第40、41题各2分，第42题3分，第43题5分，共12分） 阅读下面短文，根据题目要求用英文回答问题。请在答题卡指定区域作答。 Just as we have an individual personality,we also have a "time personalily". The personality captures our relationship to time::whether we're punctual(守时的)， how much time we believe we have,and specific time-related habits we may display According to Kristin Anderson.founder of Madison Square Psychotherapy,time personality is our natural style when it comes to managing time.For the majority of us,our time personality tends to fall along a range,from very rigid to very flexible. Here's a brief overview of four common time personalities.A"time optimist" tends to underestimate how long things take,leading to a pattern of ongoing delays.On the other end of the range,we have the"time anxious"personality.These people tend to be anxious to begin with.They also assume everything might go wrong (e.g.,traffic delays,getting lost).Therefore,they show up to commitments far in advance.Those in the "time bender"category are driven by their emotions,or inspiration.They seem to live in their own personal time zone,maximizing "flow state"when they've entered it.For those who identify with the "time blind" personality,sensing the passage of time is challenging.They might start a task and, by the time they check the clock,an entire hour has disappeared somehow. What exactly drives our varying relationships with time perception?Personality is a key player.People,characterized by competitiveness,ambition,and drive,may be more likely to be time anxious and rigid about schedules.In contrast,those who have characteristics like patience,calmness and cooperativeness tend to be flexible and may lean toward being time benders.Neurobiological factors also play a role.Higher dopamine (levels in the brain can speed up the brain's internal clock,impacting our perception of time.Finally,age can affect our time perception. This is because adults have fewer new experiences and slower dopamine metabolism (新陈代谢)，which makes time seem like it's going by faster than it actually is While each time personality comes with its own set of drawbacks when not properly managed,the good news is that we can work with these tendencies to manage our time better. 西城区高三模拟测试试卷英语2026.5第12页（共13页） 素巴全年 40.What is time personality according to Kristin Anderson? 41.What time personalities are mentioned in the passage? 42.Please decide which part is talse in the following statement,then underline it and explain why.
