When Will Fall Leaves Peak For You? -Late September or Early October:The Rockies,the northern parts of Minnesota through Michigan and a stretch from upstate New York to northern New England see peak color first. -Mid to Late October:Potential for peak fall color advances through the Midwest into the Appalachians and much of the Northeast in mid to late October.Most other areas in the western region,including valleys,see fall's brightest color by this time of year as well. -November:Much of the mid-Atlantic coast and the South are the last holdouts to see peak color in November.

A.The Monkey King:A Huge Success B.A Swede Acts on Passion for Peking Opera C.A Swede's Jourey into Chinese Martial Arts D.Pilotti's Childhood Dream:From Finland to China C Just as a hungry brain craves (food,a lonely brain craves people.A new brain study demonstrates this.After being left alone,it shows people's brains would be activated at the sight of other people.The action was in the same brain region that speeds up when a hungry person sees food. Livia Tomova,a neuroscientist,who studies how the brain produces mental activities,and her colleagues began this study.They recruited 40 people.On one day,the participants had to fast-not eat anything at allfor 10 hours.On another day,the same people were placed in a room for 10 hours.They couldn't see anyone.No friends,no family and no social media. They weren't even allowed to check their email.After both days,Tomova and her colleagues put the people in a MRI machine.It shows activity in the brain by tracking how much blood is flowing to each region. At the end of each day,the participants showed high activity in a brain area called the midbrain.The scientists were interested in two,small areas within it.Both areas produce dopamine,a chemical that is important in craving and rewards.The two areas activated when hungry participants saw pictures of tasty pizza or juicy hamburgers.After the volunteers had been isolated,those brain areas became active when they saw social activities they missed.It might be playing sports or chatting with friends. The midbrain plays an important part in people's motivation to seek food or friends.In fact,it responds to food and social signals even when people aren't hungry or lonely.But hunger and loneliness increased the reactions and made people's responses specific to the thing they were missing.And the more hunger or isolation the volunteers said they were experiencing,the stronger the activity in this part of the brain.Tomova and her colleagues published their results November 23 in Nature Neuroscience. 28.How does Tomova test out the result of the study? A.By stimulating desire. B.By controlling blood flow. C.By monitoring brain activity. D.By examining mental activities. 29.What do we know about midbrain? A.It consists of two areas. B.it helps motivate desire for food. C.It stops working when people are full. D.It decreases responses to lost friends 30.What does the underlined"it"in paragraph 3 refer to? A.A midbrain area.B.A social activity. C.A volunteer.D.Ahamburger. 31.According to the study,what similarity is found between hunger and loneliness? A.They both reduce dopamine production in the midbrain. B.They can be relieved equally by viewing pictures of food. C.They cause the brain to respond more strongly to what is missed. 6 }”560 D.They lead to decreased interest in social activities. D There are between 6 and 8 basic human emotions,or so most theories suggest. Psychologist Paul Ekman lists joy,sadness,anger,fear,disgust,and surprise,while psychologist Robert Plutchik adds trust and anticipation to the mix.These basic emotions can be combined in multiple ways-for example,fear plus joy,the combination of two contrasting emotions,creates excitement.Consider the feeling of waiting in line for a roller coaster ride: your heart races with both fear and joy. Emotions can mix or contrast much like colours in art.Primary colours such as red, yellow,and blue combine to form new shades like orange,green,or purple.When these mix further,we get in-between tones such as red-orange or yellow-orange,often given more vivid names like scarlet or amber. In 1962,Plutchik went so far as to arrange his eight primary emotions on a wheel, inspired by the colour wheel,placing contrasting emotions opposite each other (joy opposite sadness;surprise opposite anticipation).Each primary emotion has three levels of intensity. Joy,for instance,can range from serenity at low intensity,to joy,and finally to ecstasy at its peak.Anger can similarly range from mild annoyance,through anger itself,to full-blown rage -the emotional equivalent of fire-engine red.The 'spaces'between primary emotions are filled by mixtures of two emotions:joy combined with trust produces love(much like red and yellow make orange),while fear and surprise together can create awe. Although Plutchik's Wheel of Emotions'may be somewhat simplistic,it underscores that emotions exist along a spectrum ()vary in intensity,and often occur in complex combinations rather than as isolated states.Just as an artist carefully brings together different shades when creating an artwork,our lives,too,are shaped by emotional combinations.By consciously adding more positive emotions-like serenity,acceptance,and interest-we not only increase our capacity for joy,optimism,and love,but we can also soften the intensity of the less favourable emotions that we experience in life. Emotions can hijack our minds.They prepare us for action,and they neighbour our perception.But they also reveal what matters to us most.[..The basic emotions-anger, fear,sadness,disgust,surprise,and happiness-are universal,recognisable across cultures and even species.They are short-lasting but powerful,automatic responses that help us deal with our social world.But we also develop complex emotions that mix these basic ones.And importantly,we can learn to recognise the micro-expressions and tiny hints on people's faces to understand their emotional states.This is not just useful-it carries moral significance. Being emotionally literate increases our capacity for understanding,and peaceful coexistence. Emotional awareness,then,is not only about control but about connection. -Paul Ekman,Emotions Revealed 32.Why does the writer mention colour theory? A.To explain how artists use emotion in their work. B.To illustrate the principle behind the Wheel of Emotions C.To show that colours can express feelings better than words. D.To compare artistic and scientific ways of understanding emotions. 33.Which statement is most probably true according to Plutchik's theory of emotions? A.Love is one of the most important emotions. B.Opposite emotions can hardly happen together. C.Acceptance can be a mixture of basic emotions. D.Primary emotions occur at a fixed level of intensity. 34.How does the writer comment on Plutchik's theory of emotions? A.It fails to connect emotions with real-iife experiences B.It downplays emotional complexity but conveys a key idea C.It provides a detailed and scientific expianation of emotions. D.It focuses more on artistic imagery than on emotional reality. 35.What does Paul Ekman mean by "Emotions ean hijack our minds"? A.Emotions are created by external events. B.Emotions are separate from our thoughts. C.Emotions can momentarily take control of us. ,0 D.Emotions can be controlled through logical thinking. 第二节（共5小题，每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多 余选项。 Many people have fallen into the habit of neglecting to express gratitude to others and failing to take moments to appreciate the invisible yet wonderful aspects of life.36 However,there are several efective tips to help cultivate a habit of gratitude. Practice mindfulness.It is highly beneficial for expressing gratitude,as it enables individuals to fully engage with and appreciate the present moment,according to Michelle Maidenberg,a therapist in private practice in Harrison,New York,who also teaches a graduate course in Mindfulness Practice at New York University.37 Keep a gratitude journal.38 The idea is that you'll get in the habit of noticing those things you appreciate more regularly throughout the day and more frequently. 39 Notice the things that are around you that are important to you or meet your values.For example,if you love nature,take a minute to enjoy when the sun is out. Give back.Practicing gratitude can also be giving back through charity work and service for others.Gratitude isn't just about speaking,it's in the doing.One example is to look for the good that can come out of a crisis,such as collecting supplies for people affected by a hurricane. Reframe.Reframing your mindset is a powerful way to bring more gratitude into your life.40 For example,instead of saying or thinking"I have to go to work today,"reframe it as"I get to go to work today and use my skills and talents." A.So practicing mindfulness can help. B.Write a thank-you note to someone every week. C.Take the time to appreciate what you truly enjoy. D.Toward the end of the day write down your daily gratitude E.And you do this by changing the way you speak or the way you think. F.Avoid discussing negative experiences to focus only on positive things. G.This lack of appreciation harms relationships and blocks life's small pleasures. 第Ⅱ卷（非选择题） 第三部分语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 It was mid-February,and the mountain air remained bitterly cold.My ten-year-old winter coat had a 41 zipper,and despite my attempts to repair it,it was still hard to 42.I decided it was finally time to buy a new coat-though every dollar 43 these days.

Then a big loss hit me hard.It was in the game,which was tied with only 10 seconds left. I got the ball-our team's last chance to win.But I missed the shot.We lost,and I could see disappointment on my teammates'faces. After that,I became a different person.I kept blaming myself,and my confidence totally disappeared.David noticed my struggle right away.He practiced with me alone and wanted to encourage me,"One bad play doesn't make you a loser." I stared at my shoes,?I almost messed it all up.What if I do it again in the championship final?"

On stepping into the gym,I noticed the big screen-there was a video from Curry himselfsmiling,holding a basketbali,saying,"Hey,Jimmy!Mistakes aren't losses;they're just lessons waiting to be used.Get back out there,trust your training,and remember:even the best shooters miss.What matters is you take the next shot."
