H.完型填空(每小题1.5分,共30分)
For years,Leo worked as a night guard in a quiet museum.His job was 31,and he
often felt invisible,like part of the furniture.His world was one of silence and shadows.
One rainy Tuesday,as Leo was making his final 32,he noticed a small,leather-bound
sketchbook left on a bench.He picked it up,intending to hand it to the lost-and-found.However,a
quick 33 revealed pages with astonishingly beautiful drawings of the museum's sculptures,
each one34with light and life that the cold stone originals seemed to lack.
Instead of35the book to the office,Leo felt a strange urge to keep it for one night.At
home,under his lamp,he36through every page.The artist had not only drawn the art but
had also37little stories next to each piece-a warrior's homesickncss,a goddess's-secret
smile.Leo was deeply 38.For the first time,he saw the museum through someone else's
39 and it was moagical.
The next day,Leo placed the sketchbook back on the same bench,adding a 40 note:
"Your art made the statues breathe.Thank you."He didn't expect a 41.
A week later,the sketchbook was gone,but in its place was a new drawing.It was a portrait
of a night guard,not in uniform,but42as a wise guardian,watching over the sleeping art
with a kind expression.Beneath it was written:"To the one who sees.You are not part of the
43 You are its keeper."
This simple 44transformed Leo's perspective entirely.He started to 45 small,
beautiful details in his nightly rounds-the way moonlight fell on a marble floor,the peaceful
expression of a sleeping cherub (He even began leaving his own short,46.notes for
the mysterious artist,commenting on new drawings that occasionally appeared.
This silent47became a source of joy for both.Leo no longer felt invisible.He felt
48,connected to the art and to another soul who saw the world with wonder.He realized
that everyone has the 49 to touch others,sometimes without even saying a word.The
museum was no longer just a workplace;it had become a world of shared50,waiting in

It was a dark autumn night.The old banker was walking up and down his study and
remembering how,one autumn evening fifteen years before,he had given a party.
There had been many clever men,and they had talked of capital punishment The majority
disapproved of the death penalty ()They considered it immoral and ought to be replaced by
imprisonment for life.
"I don't agree,"said the banker,"the death penalty is more moral than imprisonment for life.
Capital punishment kills a man at once,but lifelong imprisonment kills him slowly."
Among the guests was a young lawyer,a young man of twenty-five.When asked,he said,
"if I have to choose between the death penalty and imprisonment for life,I would certainly choose
the second.It's better to live somehow than not to live at all."
The banker struck the table with his fist and shouted at the young man,"It's not true I'll bet
you two millions---you wouldn't stay in a cell even for five years."
"ir you inean it seriously,"said the young man,"I'll take the bet,but I would stay not five
but fifteen.years."
“Fifteen?Done”cried the banker,“Gentlemen,I stake(下注)two millions!"
"Agreed''said the young man.And this wild,senseless bet was carried out!
And now the banker,walking to and from,asked himself,"What is the object of that bet?
What is the good of that man's losing fifteen years of his life and my throwing away two millions?"
Then he remembered what followed that evening.It was decided that the young man should spend
the years of his imprisonment under the strictest supervision,in a lodge (in the banker's
house.He shouldn't be free to go out,to see human beings,or to hear the human voice.He was
only allowed to have some books.The agreement restricted the young man there exactly fifteen
years.The slightest attempt on his part to break the rules-if only two minutes before the end-
released the banker from the obligation to pay him the two mllious.

For.the first year of bis imprisonment,the prisoner suffered severely from loneliness and
depression.The books he sent for were novels with a complicated love plot,fantastic stories,and
so on.In the second ycar,the prisoner askcd only for the classics.In the fifth year,he did not read
books.More than once he could be heard crying.In the sixth year,the prisoner began
enthusiastically studying languages,philosophy,and history.In the last two years,the prisoner
read a large quantity of books.At one time he was busy with the natural sciences,then he would
ask for Byron or Shakespeare.

regain his freedom,and I ought to pay him two millions.If I do pay him,it's all over with me."
Fifteen years before,his millions had been beyond his imagination,now he was in great debt.
"Cursed bet"cricd the old man in despair,"The only way out for me is that the man should
die."
The clock had just struck three.The banker felt his way in the darkness into the lodge.He
struck a match.Not a soul was there.Only a letter!A letter from the prisoner!
"Tomorrow at twelve o'clock I'll regain my freedom.For fifteen years I have diligently
studied carthly life.Your books gave me wisdom.To prove to you in action how I despise (
all that you live by,I waive(宣布放弃)the two millions,which I once dreamed of as paradise and
which now I desplse.I shall go out from here five hours before the fixed time,and so break the

lu a groundbreaking new study,researchers have discovered bottled water sold in stores can
contain10toI00 times1 more bits of plastic than previously estimated-一nanoplastics(纳米槊料)
are so tiny that they cannot be seen under a microscope.
At 1,000th the average width of a human hair,nanoplastics arc so tiny they can migrate
through the tissues of the digestive tract (or lungs into the blgodstream.distributing
potentially harmful artificial chemicals throughout the body and into cells,experts say.
One iiter of water-equal to two standard-size bottled waters-contained an average of
240,000 plastic particles (from seven types of plastics,of which 90%were identified as
nanoplastics and the rest were microplastics,according to the new study.
Microplastics are polymer fragments that can range from less than 0.2 inch(5millimeters)
down to V25,000th of an inch (1 micrometer).Anything smaller is a nanoplastic that must be
measured in billionths of a meter.
In the new study,published Monday in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of
Sciences,researchers from Columbia University presented a new technology that can see,count
and analyze the chemical structure of nanoparticles in bottled water.
Instead of 300 per liter,the team behind the latest study found the actual number of plastic
bits in three popular brands of water sold in the United States to be in between 110,000 and
370,000,if not higher.
"The innovative new techniques presented in the study open the doot for further research to
better understand the potential risks to human health."said Janc Houlihan,research director for
Healthy Babies,Bright Fuuures-nonpronts committed to reducing babies'exposures to
neurotoxic(毒害神经的)chemicals,who was not involved in the study.
"Infants and young children may face the greatest risks,as their developing brains and
bodies are often more vulnerable to ipacts fromn toxic exposures."said Houlihan in an email.
Nanoplastics are the most worrisome type of plastic pollution for human health.experts say.
That's because the particles can invade individual-cells and tissues in major organs,potentially
interrupting cellular processes and depositing harmful chemicals such as bisphenols,phthalates,
PFAS,and heavy metals.
There are things people can do to reduce their exposure to plastics,said Houlihan."We can
avoid consuming foods and drinks in plastic containers.We can wear clothing made from natural
fabrics and buy consumer products made from nafural materials,"Houlihan said."We can simply
assess the plastic in our daily lives and find alternatives whenever possible."
61.Where can nanoplastics be found in our body?
A.The blood.B.The lung.
C.The stomach.
D.Almost everywhere.
62.What are the ditferences between nanoplastics and microplastics?
A.Nanoplastics are harmful,while microplastics areu't.
B.Nanoplastics exist in bottled waters,while microplastics don't.
C.Nanoplastics can migrate through certain tissues,while microplastics can't.
D.Nanoplastics are relatively smaller,while microplastics are much bigger.
63.Why is Jane Houlihan's statement mentioned in paragraph 7?
A.To add more background information for the new study.

B.To make preparations for the following contents.
C.To provide an objecuve evaluation of the new study.
D.To encourage readers to focus on the new study.
64.What is the meaning of the underlincd word"vulnerable"the passage?
A.Fragile.
B.Optimistic.
C.Emotional.
D.Ignorant.
65.What is the main idca of the passage?
A.The discovery of nanoplastics in bottled water.

C.The impact of nanoplastics on human health.
D.The importance of reducing plastic use.

Happiness is not natural.It is purely an idea created by human.A state of contentment(let
alone happiness)is discouraged by our genetic design because it would lower our guard against
possible threats to our survival.
Chasing happiness is like chasing an elusive(难以捉摸的)ghost..The positive thinking
industry,however,claims to know its secrets.Self-help was popularized by Norman Vincent Peale,
an American pastor ()He invented"positive thinking",a concept now deeply embedded in
our culture and steadily growing in influence.The global personal development industry was
valued at $38.28 billion in 2019 and is expected to keep growing at a rate of 5.1 percent.
Popular films and books are full of supposedly inspirational statements which suggest all
you need to do is believe in yourself and then you will be able to achieve anything in life.This is
simply,and obviously,not true.I don't think there is a need to explain that many obstacles and
misfortunes in life are inevitable or unmanageable.Our ancestors knew this.Many philosophical
and religious traditions are based on the acceptance that being alive is a very challenging task,
which comes with significant amounts of suffering.It goes without saying that we should do all
that we can to maximize our sense of well-being and minimize our suffering,but the end result
can't be a state of sustained bliss )We are not designed that way.
The self-help genre(类型)is not a homogeneous(同种类的)beast,however..Itis,in fact,
ironic how self-help books on happiness and those on how to"make it big"are put together on the
same bookshelf,given that many of the former tell us that caring too much about success and fame
is the main obstacle to happiness.
The inevitable clash between mandatory )optimism and the realities of our
existence comes with a heavy psychological price.It could be argued that positive psychology
blames those who are suffering for their suffering,as it is based on the false idea that unhappiness
is entirely avoidable.It follows therefore that an unhappy person must be adequate and
incompetent.Positive psychology encourages people who are struggling with a particular goal to
persevere in the face of unfavourable odds.This is much more punishing psychologically in the
long run than accepting failure.
I believe that coming to terms with life as it is,and not as the happiness industrv tells us it
could be,will make us feel happier and more at peace with ourselves and with the world.
Unfortunately,the devil always has the best tunes.
66.What is author's main purpose in writing the first three paragraphs?
A.To aualyze how personal development industry works.
B.To explain how unrealistic it is to pursue happiness in life.
8
cs
CamScanner
To contrast modern people's view of life with our ancestors'.
To review how the-concept of happiness has changed over years.
67.The word"this"in Paragraph 3("Our ancestors knew this")refers to which of the following?
A.The positive thinking industry's secrets to happiness are unreliable.
B.Many life obstacles and misfortunes are unavoidable or unmanageable.
C.Philosophical traditions emphasize the challenges of being alive.
D.Sustained bliss is impossible due to human genetic design.
68 It seems ironic to the author that putting self-help books on happiness and those on how to
"make it big"together because
A.readers fail to notice they belong to distinct subgenres with unrelated content themes
B.the former advocates letting go of ambition;the latter urges aggressive success pursuit
C.readers rarely recognize the conflicting values these two types of books promote
D.one focuses on inner contentment and the other on external achievement,with little
overlap
According to the article,which of the following quotes would the author most strongly
disagree with?
A.Happiness is a choice,and so is suffering.
B.Happiness is ideal.It is the work of the imagination.
C.Happiness is a by-product.You cannot pursue it by itself.
D.The search for happiness is one of the chief sources of unhappiness.
70.What does the underlined sentence "the devil always has the best tunes"mean?
A.The core idea of the happiness industry is a beautiful lie.
B.The happiness industry has negative effects on the society
C.Suffering contributes more to a meaningful life than happiness.
D.The one-sided interpretation of life proved more attractive to the public.
