Yorkshire Sculpture Park, West Yorkshire Tearing up the rulebook when it comes to how we traditionally view art, the Yorkshire Sculpture Park strives to break down barriers by showing works from British and international artists in the open air.

Two friends joined me on a four-day wilderness getaway, and since we were all in our seventies, we decided we’d better go while we still could. Our adventure began with a scary drive up a winding mountain road. On one hike, I found myself hanging onto a wire on a bridge made of two logs (木头), suspended high above rushing rapids (湍流). Fixing my eyes on our guide’s shoes, I inched along the shaky logs. Somehow, I made it across, flooded with a rush of intense excitement and huge relief. Later, after spotting bear tracks, we were told to make loud noises, which soon became a game once the tension faded. We talked and laughed, thinking the danger had passed. Until suddenly, time stood still. We had just crossed a stream when the guide whispered, “There’s a bear.” I looked up in disbelief and saw not one, but two, about ten meters above us — the brown mother in front, her cub behind. Though scared speechless, I couldn’t help noticing how beautiful they looked in their natural setting. I wondered if it would be my last memory. As they started towards us, we recovered enough to shout and wave our hiking poles. Taken by surprise, they stopped, and then slowly turned away. Another fear was overcome! On our final morning, after a quiet, thoughtful walk through the forest, we were asked to bring back a “meaningful” stick, rock, and leaf to share what would “stick” with us, what “rocked”, and what we would “leave behind”. The bond of friendship would stick with me. Women supporting one another truly rocked. And I hoped to leave some fears behind. Our guide ended by expressing her admiration, praising not only our fitness but also our positive attitude. Those unexpected words warmed my heart and eased my fear of being “over the hill”. Being valued for what we had accomplished made this trip the most unforgettable experience in my life. 56. How did the author cross the bridge? A. By using her sense of direction. B. By taking careful steps. C. By rushing across it bravely. D. By having the guide drag her over. 57. Why did the bears leave? A. They were afraid of the noise of the rapids. B. They were shocked at the group’s actions. C. They were threatened by the guide’s rocks. D. They were attracted by the natural setting. 58. Why did the guide ask them for a stick, rock, and leaf? A. To reflect on the journey. B. To pick up some souvenirs. C. To symbolize their teamwork. D. To check their observation skills. 59. The underlined phrase “over the hill” in the last paragraph is closest in meaning to ________. A. out of sight B. beyond one’s ability C. on the top of the mountain D. no longer young or energetic 60. What can we infer about the author from the passage? A. She used to be a professional hiker. B. She planned to move to the wilderness. C. She gained a renewed sense of confidence. D. She regretted taking the risky trip. 【答案】56. B 57. B 58. A 59. D 60. C 【解析】 【导语】文章讲述年逾七旬的作者与好友开启野外探险，接连克服恐高、惧怕熊与衰老的心理，在旅程感悟友情，内心重拾自信。 【56题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Fixing my eyes on our guide’s shoes, I inched along the shaky logs.(我紧盯向导的鞋子，在摇晃的原木上缓缓挪动脚步。)”可知，作者小心翼翼迈步走过桥梁。 【57题详解】 细节理解题。根据第七段“As they started towards us, we recovered enough to shout and wave our hiking poles. Taken by surprise, they stopped, and then slowly turned away.(熊朝我们走来时，我们回过神来，大声呼喊并挥舞登山杖。这群动物猝不及防，停下脚步，随后缓缓转身离去。)”可知，熊因众人的举动感到意外而后离去。 【58题详解】 推理判断题。根据第八段“On our final morning, after a quiet, thoughtful walk through the forest, we were asked to bring back a “meaningful” stick, rock, and leaf to share what would “stick” with us, what “rocked”, and what we would “leave behind”. (最后一日清晨，我们沉静思索着漫步林间。随后大家被要求带回一根寓意深远的树枝、一块石头与一片树叶，借此分享心中难忘的经历、触动内心的瞬间，以及决意放下的过往。)”可知，向导此举是为了让大家回味反思此次旅程。 【59题详解】 词句猜测题。根据首段 “This summer, I came face-to-face with three deep-rooted fears: heights, bears, and aging.(今年夏天我直面恐高、怕熊和衰老三大内心恐惧。)” 以及前文作者已是七十多岁老人可知，“Those unexpected words warmed my heart and eased my fear of being “over the hill”.(番意外的话语温暖了我的内心，也消解了我对over the hill的惶恐。)”中 “over the hill”指代不再年轻、精力衰退。 【60题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Those unexpected words warmed my heart and eased my fear of being “over the hill”. Being valued for what we had accomplished made this trip the most unforgettable experience in my life.(这些意外的话语温暖了我的心，也打消了我对步入暮年的顾虑。自身的付出与成就得到认可，这次旅程成为我此生最难忘的经历。)”可推断，作者重新收获了自信心。 C Seen from an airplane, cars moving slowly on the highway look like a line of ants. Unlike these human-driven vehicles, however, ants are able to avoid the troubling stop-and-go traffic that bothers daily commutes (通勤). Researchers have therefore turned their attention to studying the ants’ teamwork-based behaviors, hoping to apply these insights to designing self-driving cars that can prevent traffic jams. As the number of cars on highways keeps growing, the stability (稳定) of traffic flow gradually falls. Studies show that when the density (密度) reaches 15 vehicles per mile per lane (车道), a single driver’s sudden brake tap can lead to long-lasting and widespread traffic jams. Scientist Katsuhiro Nishinari, a mathematical physicist studying traffic transitions, compares this phenomenon to a phase transition, such as water turning into ice. Even small individual actions in such situations can quickly develop into major traffic issues. Katsuhiro Nishinari’s previous research has already shown that food-seeking ants can maintain smooth movement even when their population density is very high. A recent follow-up study has shown they usually travel in groups of 3 to 20 individuals, moving at steady speeds with proper gaps between each other and never attempting to overtake. Their behavior depends on mutual collaboration rather than individual preferences. This collective intelligence offers a lesson for human drivers today. One key takeaway is to avoid tailgating. Keeping a safe distance from the vehicle ahead helps absorb the shock waves caused by sudden braking in dense traffic. Of course, ants have the natural advantage of creating flexible paths, while cars are bound to fixed lanes. But the principle of maintaining proper spacing remains vital for safety and efficiency on our roads. Looking ahead, the real transformation may come from technology. As Katsuhiro Nishinari points out, “Unlike human drivers who often act on their own, future self-driving cars could be designed to share real-time data and function as a combined system.” Inspired by ants, these vehicles can upgrade traffic flow as a shared system, potentially requiring updates to existing rules to fully realize their benefits. 61. What can cause widespread highway traffic jams directly? A. A total of 15 cars per mile. B. Ant behaviors affecting driving. C. A sudden brake at a certain density. D. Reduced stability of traffic flow. 62. What is the purpose of mentioning the recent follow-up study in Paragraph 3? A. To compare ants with human drivers. B. To criticize current traffic regulations. C. To explain the math behind traffic jams. D. To detail how ants achieve smooth movement. 63. What does the underlined word “tailgating” probably mean in Paragraph 4? A. Keeping a proper distance. B. Driving too close to the front. C. Following strict traffic rules. D. Seeking perfect lane position. 64. What is Katsuhiro Nishinari’s suggestion for ant-inspired self-driving cars? A. Adopt a cooperative approach. B. Collect personal travel data. C. Redesign traffic rules constantly. D. Rely on active human behavior. 65. Which would be the best title for the text? A. Bio-inspired solutions for traffic jams B. Biological performances of moving ants C. Technical challenges for self-driving cars D. Traffic engineering models for traffic flow 【答案】61. C 62. D 63. B 64. A 65. A 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍科学家研究蚂蚁的协作通行特性，希望借鉴其行为原理优化自动驾驶汽车，解决交通拥堵问题。 【61题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Studies show that when the density reaches 15 vehicles per mile per lane, a single driver’s sudden brake tap can lead to long-lasting and widespread traffic jams.(研究表明，当车道车流密度达到每英里每车道15辆车时，单个驾驶员的一次突然刹车会引发持久且大范围的交通拥堵)”可知，特定车流密度下的突然刹车会直接引发大范围高速公路拥堵。 【62题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“Katsuhiro Nishinari’s previous research has already shown that food-seeking ants can maintain smooth movement even when their population density is very high. A recent follow-up study has shown they usually travel in groups of 3 to 20 individuals, moving at steady speeds with proper gaps between each other and never attempting to overtake.(Katsuhiro Nishinari此前的研究已经表明，觅食的蚂蚁即使在种群密度很高的情况下也能保持平稳移动。最近的一项后续研究发现，它们通常以3到20只为一组旅行，以稳定的速度移动，彼此之间保持适当的间隙，从不试图超车)”可知，第三段提到最近的后续研究是为了详细说明蚂蚁如何实现平稳移动。 【63题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第四段中的“Keeping a safe distance from the vehicle ahead helps absorb the shock waves caused by sudden braking in dense traffic.(与前车保持安全距离有助于缓解车流密集时突然刹车带来的冲击效应)”可知，要与前车保持安全距离，因此研究得到的一个重要启示是避免跟车过近，划线词tailgating意为“跟车距离过近”。 【64题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“As Katsuhiro Nishinari points out, “Unlike human drivers who often act independently, future self-driving cars could be designed to share real-time data and function as an integrated system.” Inspired by ants, these vehicles can upgrade traffic flow as a cooperative system, potentially requiring updates to existing regulations to fully realize their benefits.(正如Katsuhiro Nishinari指出的那样，“与经常独立行动的人类驾驶员不同，未来的自动驾驶汽车可以被设计成共享实时数据并作为一个集成系统运行。”受蚂蚁的启发，这些车辆可以作为一个协作系统来升级交通流量，可能需要更新现有法规以充分实现其优势)”可知，Katsuhiro Nishinari建议受蚂蚁启发的自动驾驶汽车应采用协作方法。 【65题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，并结合第一段中“Researchers have therefore turned their attention to studying the ants’ teamwork-based behaviors, hoping to apply these insights to designing self-driving cars that can prevent traffic jams.(因此研究人员开始研究蚂蚁的协作行为，希望将研究心得运用到可规避交通拥堵的自动驾驶汽车研发中)”可知，文章围绕借鉴蚂蚁的生物特性，研发新型自动驾驶技术、解决交通拥堵的方案展开。故选A选项“借鉴生物原理解决交通拥堵”能概括文章主旨，适合作标题。 D I struggle with letting go of things. Embarrassing situations that occurred years ago still regularly pop into my mind and stress me out. I can’t move past them and forget them. Can you suggest some techniques to move on and lead a calmer life? — A painful reader It feels unpleasant to be pulled back into the past, forced to relive those painful memories. So why do we keep going back? One possibility is that we feel not enough has changed. Time might have passed, but we still feel like we’re right there. We are still scared in the same ways those situations made us feel, and vulnerable (脆弱的) to those same stressors. If you feel as if a lot has changed since an indignity, the memory feels more like a postcard from somewhere distant. But if you feel the same, an unpleasant thing from the past can still seem threatening as that version of us continues to exist today. Or maybe we go back to these memories because there’s some unanswered question we keep trying to solve. Why did I say that? Why did they do that? If I’d done that differently, would this have changed? Maybe, more rarely, we go back because we’re bored. Sometimes if present-day life doesn’t quite feel stimulating enough, we can go back to conflicts or hard choices from the past, because even though they were unpleasant, they somehow feel more real. What can we do? Some people might say you need closure, a way to tell a coherent (有条理的) story. Closure is great if you can get it, but I’m not sure it’s always possible. What concerns me is that whether we can find closure depends on whether we can make sense of those events. Coherence may be beyond our reach. People don’t always have a “why”. I think it’s less “I have to get closure” and more “I have to see this as past, over.” When you try to figure out what is attractive about these memories, it might help to see them in past tense. Not solved, just over — not a source of new pain, not part of a pattern; an echo (回声) of hurts gone by. 66. What is the purpose of the first paragraph? A. To recommend a method B. To introduce a practical solution C. To present a personal problem D. To summarize the author’s advice 67. What does the underlined word “indignity” in Paragraph 3 most likely mean? A. A positive event that brings pride and honor. B. An unexpected event that brings good luck. C. A common daily activity that is easily forgotten. D. A painful or embarrassing event that hurts one’s feeling. 68. According to the author, why do we keep going back to painful memories? A. (a) Becoming stronger over time; (b) Gaining closure;(c) Seeking excitement. B. (a) Being vulnerable as before; (b) Wondering “why”; (c) Feeling bored now. C. (a) Developing new skills; (b) Rewriting the past;(c) Enjoying old conflicts. D. (a) Avoiding current problems; (b) Hoping to forget past (c) Searching for luck. 69. What concern does the author express about the idea of “closure”? A. Closure relies on making sense of events, which may be impossible. B. Closure is unnecessary and irrelevant for people stuck in pain. C. Closure can only be achieved through constructing a touching story. D. Closure is seen as more valuable than the ability to move forward. 70. Which of the following best summarizes the author’s advice? A. Painful memories must be carefully analyzed to gain wisdom. B. Forgetting the past is the only way to achieve peace eternally. C. Painful memories should be seen as finished events, not threats. D. One could remove painful memories by rewriting his own past. 【答案】66. C 67. D 68. B 69. A 70. C 【解析】 【导语】文章剖析人们反复回想痛苦往事的三类原因，探讨彻底释怀存在的局限性，并建议人们正视伤痛已成过往，以此平复心绪。 【66题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“I struggle with letting go of things.

(如果你感觉经历一次indignity后，一切都变了，这段记忆就会变得像来自远方的明信片一样遥远。)”中indignity指代an unpleasant thing，即伤人内心的痛苦、尴尬之事。 【68题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“We are still scared in the same ways those situations made us feel, and vulnerable (脆弱的) to those same stressors.(我们仍会以当初那些情境带给我们的感受方式感到恐惧，并且容易受到同样压力源的影响。)”、第四段“Or maybe we go back to these memories because there’s some unanswered question we keep trying to solve.(又或许我们反复回想这些往事，只因心中存有未解的疑惑，总想探寻答案。)”以及第五段“Maybe, more rarely, we go back because we’re bored.(也有少数时候，我们回想过往只是因为心生烦闷。)”可知，我们总是回到痛苦的回忆中原因分别为内心依旧脆弱、不断追问缘由、当下生活感到无聊。 【69题详解】 细节理解题。根据第六段“What concerns me is that whether we can find closure depends on whether we can make sense of those events. Coherence may be beyond our reach.(令作者担忧的是，释怀取决于能否理清事件原委，而这往往难以实现。)”可知，释怀需要理解事件始末，而这件事或许无法做到。 【70题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Not solved, just over — not a source of new pain, not part of a pattern; an echo (回声) of hurts gone by.(不必纠结破解往事，只需正视它已然落幕，它只是过往伤痛的回响，不再具备威胁性。)”可知，作者建议将痛苦回忆视作已经结束的事情，不再将其当作威胁。 第Ⅱ卷 非选择题(共40分) 第四部分：单词拼写 根据中文和首字母用单词的正确形式完成句子(每小题1分，满分10分) 71.

Cousin Amy brought it as a get-well gift for Mom, who was going through chemotherapy (化疗). “You will lose your hair from chemo”, Amy insisted. Mom looked at the wig and sighed, “Amy, let’s not dance until the music starts.” This was her gentle way of saying not to cross bridges before reaching them. She believed in living in the present, refusing to waste energy on things that might never happen. The wig hung on a hook as a reminder. As it turned out, she never went bald. Though severely ill, Mom had a joyful presence, like sunlight breaking through clouds, that drew neighbors to our door. One day, I came home frustrated after a tense encounter with a difficult client. “I dread our next meeting,” I told her. Mom set down her cup. “Honey my girl, maybe he’ll be easier or he may not appear tomorrow. Enjoy today. Don’t dance until the music starts.” The next morning, my calendar confirmed what I had feared: the client meeting was still on. I let this knowledge cast a shadow over my entire day. But when the hour arrived, the client called to cancel the meeting. I needn’t have been afraid that day. Mom’s wisdom proved right. Even during chemo, she never complained. When a nervous nurse stabbed her arm three times searching for a vein. Mom offered a reassuring smile. And she whispered, “That’s okay. Rocks on the shore endure constant waves and remain standing.” Over time, Mom’s wisdom influenced me a lot. I found myself pausing before panic set in, wondering if the music had actually started. I began noticing how often I paid interest on debts never incurred (欠) — energy wasted on troubles that never came. On that snowy evening when she slipped away peacefully in our lamp-lit parlor, I had once feared being alone after her death. Then, surrounded by stillness and the warm glow, I felt only gratitude Decades later, I still hear her gentle voice: “Enjoy the present moment. What you fear may never happen. Don’t dance until the music starts”. 81. Why did Cousin Amy bring a brown wig for Mom?

Last month, I took part in a voluntary activity at a nursing home with my classmates. When we arrived, we greeted the elderly warmly. Some of us cleaned their rooms and watered the flowers. Others chatted with the old people patiently, listening to their interesting life stories. I helped an elderly grandma comb her hair and told her funny jokes.

These are the galleries you need to add to your must-visit list. Royal Academy of Arts (RA), London Not your standard gallery, the Royal Academy of Arts is led by artists to promote not just the appreciation of art, but its practice. It is world-famous for hosting some exhibitions that get everyone talking. Besides, what sets the RA apart is its engagement with the public through participatory experiences, allowing visitors to not only view art but become part of it in innovative ways. Sainsbury Centre for Visual Arts, Norwich Sitting on the edge of the University of East Anglia’s campus, the Sainsbury Centre holds a collection of remarkable works of art spanning over 2,000 years. Inside the seminal Norman Foster building, you’ll find artworks from around the world, including some stunning pieces of European modern art by Degas, Francis Bacon, and Alberto Giacometti. Yorkshire Sculpture Park, West Yorkshire Tearing up the rulebook when it comes to how we traditionally view art, the Yorkshire Sculpture Park strives to break down barriers by showing works from British and international artists in the open air. Set in hundreds of acres of West Yorkshire parkland, you’ll see sculptures by some of the leading artists of the 20th century. Whitworth, Manchester After a sky-high E15 million development, the Whitworth is becoming one of the premier galleries in the north of England. Making full use of its picturesque park setting, the gallery has a beautiful art garden and a sculpture terrace (露台), all waiting to be explored. Inside the gallery, you can view an exciting program of ever-changing exhibitions. 51. What do we know about England from the passage? A. It’s well-known for its brilliant natural landscape. B.

What is special about the Royal Academy of Arts? A. It offers interactive experiences. B. It displays works by senior artists. C. It occupies a vast space in the museum. D. It stages exhibitions in a traditional way. 53. Which of the statements is true for Sainsbury Centre for Visual Arts? A. It’s not close to the University of East Anglia B. Its modern artworks mostly come from Europe. C. Its works of art all date back to 2,000 years ago. D. It bridges the classical and the modern. 54. What do Yorkshire Sculpture Park and Whitworth have in common? A. They are small in scale. B. They offer outdoor settings. C. They feature long-standing works. D. They host exhibitions on an annual basis. 55. Where is the text probably taken from? A. An art textbook. B. An art student’s paper. C. A personal travel blog. D. A travel guidebook. B This summer, I came face-to-face with three deep-rooted fears: heights, bears, and aging. Two friends joined me on a four-day wilderness getaway, and since we were all in our seventies, we decided we’d better go while we still could. Our adventure began with a scary drive up a winding mountain road. On one hike, I found myself hanging onto a wire on a bridge made of two logs (木头), suspended high above rushing rapids (湍流). Fixing my eyes on our guide’s shoes, I inched along the shaky logs. Somehow, I made it across, flooded with a rush of intense excitement and huge relief. Later, after spotting bear tracks, we were told to make loud noises, which soon became a game once the tension faded. We talked and laughed, thinking the danger had passed. Until suddenly, time stood still. We had just crossed a stream when the guide whispered, “There’s a bear.” I looked up in disbelief and saw not one, but two, about ten meters above us — the brown mother in front, her cub behind. Though scared speechless, I couldn’t help noticing how beautiful they looked in their natural setting. I wondered if it would be my last memory. As they started towards us, we recovered enough to shout and wave our hiking poles. Taken by surprise, they stopped, and then slowly turned away. Another fear was overcome! On our final morning, after a quiet, thoughtful walk through the forest, we were asked to bring back a “meaningful” stick, rock, and leaf to share what would “stick” with us, what “rocked”, and what we would “leave behind”. The bond of friendship would stick with me. Women supporting one another truly rocked. And I hoped to leave some fears behind. Our guide ended by expressing her admiration, praising not only our fitness but also our positive attitude. Those unexpected words warmed my heart and eased my fear of being “over the hill”. Being valued for what we had accomplished made this trip the most unforgettable experience in my life. 56. How did the author cross the bridge? A. By using her sense of direction. B. By taking careful steps. C. By rushing across it bravely. D. By having the guide drag her over. 57. Why did the bears leave? A. They were afraid of the noise of the rapids. B. They were shocked at the group’s actions. C. They were threatened by the guide’s rocks. D. They were attracted by the natural setting. 58. Why did the guide ask them for a stick, rock, and leaf? A. To reflect on the journey. B. To pick up some souvenirs. C. To symbolize their teamwork. D. To check their observation skills. 59. The underlined phrase “over the hill” in the last paragraph is closest in meaning to ________. A. out of sight B. beyond one’s ability C. on the top of the mountain D. no longer young or energetic 60. What can we infer about the author from the passage? A. She used to be a professional hiker. B. She planned to move to the wilderness. C. She gained a renewed sense of confidence. D. She regretted taking the risky trip. C Seen from an airplane, cars moving slowly on the highway look like a line of ants. Unlike these human-driven vehicles, however, ants are able to avoid the troubling stop-and-go traffic that bothers daily commutes (通勤). Researchers have therefore turned their attention to studying the ants’ teamwork-based behaviors, hoping to apply these insights to designing self-driving cars that can prevent traffic jams. As the number of cars on highways keeps growing, the stability (稳定) of traffic flow gradually falls. Studies show that when the density (密度) reaches 15 vehicles per mile per lane (车道), a single driver’s sudden brake tap can lead to long-lasting and widespread traffic jams. Scientist Katsuhiro Nishinari, a mathematical physicist studying traffic transitions, compares this phenomenon to a phase transition, such as water turning into ice. Even small individual actions in such situations can quickly develop into major traffic issues. Katsuhiro Nishinari’s previous research has already shown that food-seeking ants can maintain smooth movement even when their population density is very high. A recent follow-up study has shown they usually travel in groups of 3 to 20 individuals, moving at steady speeds with proper gaps between each other and never attempting to overtake. Their behavior depends on mutual collaboration rather than individual preferences. This collective intelligence offers a lesson for human drivers today. One key takeaway is to avoid tailgating. Keeping a safe distance from the vehicle ahead helps absorb the shock waves caused by sudden braking in dense traffic. Of course, ants have the natural advantage of creating flexible paths, while cars are bound to fixed lanes. But the principle of maintaining proper spacing remains vital for safety and efficiency on our roads. Looking ahead, the real transformation may come from technology. As Katsuhiro Nishinari points out, “Unlike human drivers who often act on their own, future self-driving cars could be designed to share real-time data and function as a combined system.” Inspired by ants, these vehicles can upgrade traffic flow as a shared system, potentially requiring updates to existing rules to fully realize their benefits. 61. What can cause widespread highway traffic jams directly? A. A total of 15 cars per mile. B. Ant behaviors affecting driving. C. A sudden brake at a certain density. D. Reduced stability of traffic flow. 62. What is the purpose of mentioning the recent follow-up study in Paragraph 3? A. To compare ants with human drivers. B. To criticize current traffic regulations. C. To explain the math behind traffic jams. D. To detail how ants achieve smooth movement. 63. What does the underlined word “tailgating” probably mean in Paragraph 4? A. Keeping a proper distance. B. Driving too close to the front. C. Following strict traffic rules. D. Seeking perfect lane position. 64. What is Katsuhiro Nishinari’s suggestion for ant-inspired self-driving cars? A. Adopt a cooperative approach. B. Collect personal travel data. C. Redesign traffic rules constantly. D. Rely on active human behavior. 65. Which would be the best title for the text? A. Bio-inspired solutions for traffic jams B. Biological performances of moving ants C. Technical challenges for self-driving cars D. Traffic engineering models for traffic flow D I struggle with letting go of things. Embarrassing situations that occurred years ago still regularly pop into my mind and stress me out. I can’t move past them and forget them. Can you suggest some techniques to move on and lead a calmer life? — A painful reader It feels unpleasant to be pulled back into the past, forced to relive those painful memories. So why do we keep going back? One possibility is that we feel not enough has changed. Time might have passed, but we still feel like we’re right there. We are still scared in the same ways those situations made us feel, and vulnerable (脆弱的) to those same stressors. If you feel as if a lot has changed since an indignity, the memory feels more like a postcard from somewhere distant. But if you feel the same, an unpleasant thing from the past can still seem threatening as that version of us continues to exist today. Or maybe we go back to these memories because there’s some unanswered question we keep trying to solve. Why did I say that? Why did they do that? If I’d done that differently, would this have changed? Maybe, more rarely, we go back because we’re bored. Sometimes if present-day life doesn’t quite feel stimulating enough, we can go back to conflicts or hard choices from the past, because even though they were unpleasant, they somehow feel more real. What can we do? Some people might say you need closure, a way to tell a coherent (有条理的) story. Closure is great if you can get it, but I’m not sure it’s always possible. What concerns me is that whether we can find closure depends on whether we can make sense of those events. Coherence may be beyond our reach. People don’t always have a “why”. I think it’s less “I have to get closure” and more “I have to see this as past, over.” When you try to figure out what is attractive about these memories, it might help to see them in past tense. Not solved, just over — not a source of new pain, not part of a pattern; an echo (回声) of hurts gone by. 66. What is the purpose of the first paragraph? A. To recommend a method B. To introduce a practical solution C. To present a personal problem D. To summarize the author’s advice 67. What does the underlined word “indignity” in Paragraph 3 most likely mean? A. A positive event that brings pride and honor. B. An unexpected event that brings good luck. C. A common daily activity that is easily forgotten. D. A painful or embarrassing event that hurts one’s feeling. 68. According to the author, why do we keep going back to painful memories? A. (a) Becoming stronger over time; (b) Gaining closure;(c) Seeking excitement. B. (a) Being vulnerable as before; (b) Wondering “why”; (c) Feeling bored now. C. (a) Developing new skills; (b) Rewriting the past;(c) Enjoying old conflicts. D. (a) Avoiding current problems; (b) Hoping to forget past (c) Searching for luck. 69. What concern does the author express about the idea of “closure”? A. Closure relies on making sense of events, which may be impossible. B. Closure is unnecessary and irrelevant for people stuck in pain. C. Closure can only be achieved through constructing a touching story. D. Closure is seen as more valuable than the ability to move forward. 70. Which of the following best summarizes the author’s advice? A. Painful memories must be carefully analyzed to gain wisdom. B. Forgetting the past is the only way to achieve peace eternally. C. Painful memories should be seen as finished events, not threats. D. One could remove painful memories by rewriting his own past. 第Ⅱ卷 非选择题(共40分) 第四部分：单词拼写 根据中文和首字母用单词的正确形式完成句子(每小题1分，满分10分) 71.

Cousin Amy brought it as a get-well gift for Mom, who was going through chemotherapy (化疗). “You will lose your hair from chemo”, Amy insisted. Mom looked at the wig and sighed, “Amy, let’s not dance until the music starts.” This was her gentle way of saying not to cross bridges before reaching them. She believed in living in the present, refusing to waste energy on things that might never happen. The wig hung on a hook as a reminder. As it turned out, she never went bald. Though severely ill, Mom had a joyful presence, like sunlight breaking through clouds, that drew neighbors to our door. One day, I came home frustrated after a tense encounter with a difficult client. “I dread our next meeting,” I told her. Mom set down her cup. “Honey my girl, maybe he’ll be easier or he may not appear tomorrow. Enjoy today. Don’t dance until the music starts.” The next morning, my calendar confirmed what I had feared: the client meeting was still on. I let this knowledge cast a shadow over my entire day. But when the hour arrived, the client called to cancel the meeting. I needn’t have been afraid that day. Mom’s wisdom proved right. Even during chemo, she never complained. When a nervous nurse stabbed her arm three times searching for a vein. Mom offered a reassuring smile. And she whispered, “That’s okay. Rocks on the shore endure constant waves and remain standing.” Over time, Mom’s wisdom influenced me a lot. I found myself pausing before panic set in, wondering if the music had actually started. I began noticing how often I paid interest on debts never incurred (欠) — energy wasted on troubles that never came. On that snowy evening when she slipped away peacefully in our lamp-lit parlor, I had once feared being alone after her death. Then, surrounded by stillness and the warm glow, I felt only gratitude Decades later, I still hear her gentle voice: “Enjoy the present moment. What you fear may never happen. Don’t dance until the music starts”. 81. Why did Cousin Amy bring a brown wig for Mom?
