It continues to be one of the best nights I ever spent out ____13____ the city, but it probably would not have happened if I were not by myself. I understand that there can be a ____14____ to eating alone but that’s mostly in others’ head. What dining by oneself affords you is “____15____.” There is a lot I mean by that word.

It could also mean just taking a chance to ____17____, whether that be to your own thoughts or to just the busy and lively atmosphere of the city.

Eating alone forces you into your own moments, and maybe into a new level of ____22____ for the food you are eating.

Book reviewers use four main strategies to turn their subjective opinions into more objective assessments: spotting personal biases (偏见), maintaining critical autonomy, relying on solid evidence for assessment, and applying reflexive reading. What is this research about? Objectivity is the foundation for sound judgments of truth. This can be hard to apply to aesthetic (审美的) judgments, which are subjective. Critics are constantly trying to have their definition of excellence become the norm in their field. Book reviewers must work past offering a judgment of personal taste to producing an argument to justify their evaluation. How was the research carried out? Thirty in-depth phone interviews were conducted with book reviewers who worked for large American newspapers. The interviews explored how reviewers determine what good fiction is and how they convey their conclusions in their reviews. What did the research find? It found that there are four strategies book reviewers employ to maintain critical distance. Critics of subjective topics use approaches that are similar to ones used by those making judgment in scientific matters. 1) Recognizing conflicts of interest Before agreeing to take on a project, critics must assess if the relationship they have with the author could affect their evaluation. Critics are more concerned with giving unfair negative reviews than excessively positive reviews. 2) Keeping independent judgment Reviewer s are conscious of factors that can affect their judgment. This includes reviews of the same book written by other critics. Reading a review written by another critic might encourage a reviewer to change their own evaluation to match the opinion of that critic, or intentionally write an opposite opinion just to seem different. 3) ________ Part of the authority that comes from a critic comes from their knowledge of literature. Critics recognize what characteristics good fiction has and must be able to both recognize and quantify those qualities in a new book. 4) Reflexive reading Reviewers need to ensure that they are reading critically, and constantly questioning their responses to the text. They will read it once as a reader and then again as a critic. Critics said that their first response to a novel is emotional. After their initial reaction, however, critics must evaluate if their response was an indication of quality. How can you use this research? This research helps shed light on how art reviews are created. It helps explain the processes that go into creating fair and reasonable reviews of subjective subjects. 31. What does the underlined word “autonomy” mean in the box? A. Freedom. B. Independence. C. Sensibility. D. Objectivity. 32. Which of the following best completes the blanks above? A. Evidence-based reviewing B. Authority-based evaluation C. Literary accomplishment D. Professional literary judgment 33. What can be learned from the passage is that ________. A. approaches to scientific reviewing do not apply to reviews of literature B. the research was carried out by professors through laboratory experiments C. a book reviewer needs to read the book being reviewed at least twice D. a reviewer’s personal taste is meant to be clearly reflected in their reviews B I have always felt most comfortable in the classroom, and I enjoy the recognition from family and teachers for accomplishing a job well. Although I was a high achiever, I was not a student who joined every club. Throughout my life, I wanted to learn more than I wanted to be in a bunch of extracurriculars (课外活动). My academic journey continued at a community college, where I joined the student newspaper. In the newsroom, I discovered an engaging, fast-paced world that allowed me to never stop learning. It was just what I had expected. Now my transfer (转学) to Drake University for a journalism degree was a no-brainer. It was exciting to see my future become clear, but I never pictured the shock waves headed my way. The campus phenomenon known as “Drake Busy” was completely unexpected. The term describes the idea that constant busyness is the main indicator of college success. Within the first week, I felt heavy pressure to be active in all the ways my peers (同伴) were. I saw students trying to balance multiple jobs and organizations alongside schoolwork. As a student used to having confidence in the classroom, I felt this new standard threatened my identity and worsened my anxiety. I spent my first term struggling with doubts about my worthiness. My anxious thoughts tricked my mind into believing lies like “You’re not good enough.” A part of my mind realized those thoughts were not true, but that sensible voice was a whisper compared to the shouts of doubt. As a witness to this battle every day, I have learned that sometimes it just takes time to chip away at my mind’s inventions. In time, I recognized that my experience as a transfer student was different but valuable. The outsider perspective helped me tackle “Drake Busy”. I watched people trying to do too much at the expense of their well-being. I wanted to shake them and say, “Why do this to yourself?” Instead of fighting the current, I eventually learned to swim in my own lane. The pressure didn’t disappear, but my need to give in to it did. I realized that my worth wasn’t calculated by the number of meetings on my calendar, but by the real satisfaction I felt in my work. On the days I managed to balance my ambition with my peace of mind, I felt most motivated. I discovered that: true success is defined internally, not by the noise around you. 34. Before entering Drake University, the author ________. A. adopted a relaxing lifestyle B. longed to become a teacher C. struggled to choose a major D. performed well academically 35. How did the author feel within the first week at Drake University? A. Unaccustomed. B. Relieved. C. Regretful. D. Expectant. 36. What does the author think of the “Drake Busy” lifestyle? A. It lowers students’ learning efficiency. B. It indicates students’ future success. C. It threatens students’ well-being. D. It erases students’ self-doubt. 37. What message does the passage deliver? A. Outsiders rarely win. B. Your own pace matters. C. Busyness equals worthiness. D. Your anxiety drives you forward. C Friday nights have a special energy that seems to be felt by almost everyone. But what is it about Friday nights that makes people feel so happy? A key psychological driver behind this phenomenon is the power of anticipation. When people are looking forward to something their mood tends to improve. Another reason people are happier on Friday nights is the sense of breaking the routine. Friday nights offer a chance to break away from that routine and socialize with friends, which can be a source of happiness. The “weekend effect” brings a surge of happiness on Friday as work stress lifts and the freedom of the weekend begins. But for many of us, by the time Sunday afternoon rolls around, a feeling of intense anxiety and dread sets in — often referred to as the “Sunday scaries”. A new study led by the University of Exeter has found that many employees experience the “Sunday scaries”. This phenomenon often takes the form of mental preoccupation with the week ahead, as well as feelings of nervousness and difficulty in sleeping. “It’s as if your mind starts to turn from what is generally either relaxation or enjoyment at the weekend, into worries about everything you’ve got to do in the working week ahead.” No matter how fun or relaxing Friday evening and Saturday were, the so-called “Sunday Scaries” tend to creep up while we’re enjoying the last hours of the weekend. A new survey shows that 75% of workers experience pre-week anxiety and may report even having trouble falling asleep on Sundays compared to other nights. Today, with hybrid work becoming the norm, the isolation of working from home, the blurring of boundaries between work and life, and the invisible burden of being on call around the clock have trapped modern professionals in a cycle of exhaustion. Also, the “Sunday Scaries” intensify when we feel we should have enjoyed the weekend more, making the return to work seem unjustified. This anticipation easily blossoms into the “Monday Blues,” particularly if we’ve learned to associate work with stress. A tool that helps us focus less on the past or future and more on the present is meditation. It teaches us to cultivate mindful awareness, observe thoughts without immediately reacting, and navigate pre-weekend anxiety with composure (镇定), all of which helps us prepare for the challenges of the upcoming week. 38. Why do people feel happy on Friday nights? A. Because they totally forget work stress on Friday nights. B. Because they expect the weekend and escape daily life. C. Because socializing improves work efficiency. D. Because they are free from future worries. 39. What does “Sunday scaries” mean according to the passage? A. A strong feeling of fear and worry before the workweek. B. A kind of mental illness that makes people sleepy. C. The worries brought by the coming weekend. D. The excitement of enjoying the last hours of the weekend. 40. Which of the following is NOT a cause of the “Sunday scaries”? A. The unclear line between work and personal life. B. The stress from being available around the clock. C. The comfort brought by flexible work patterns. D. The regret of not making the most of the weekend. 41. What is the main purpose of the passage? A. To introduce the advantages of hybrid work. B. To explain weekend mood shifts and provide a solution. C. To show how to enjoy the weekend to the fullest. D. To persuade people to work hard on Mondays. D ChatGPT is a powerful artificial intelligence developed by OpenAI that is widely known for its smooth human-computer interaction and professional question-answering ability.

This is the conference where I got my start about 15 years ago, so it feels special whenever I go back there. I usually teach multiple sessions, host a table at meals where I can talk with conferees, and often have about 40-50 private appointments with attendees. I take great pleasure in giving my personal advice on the beginners' writing journey after listening to their puzzlement. And then I realized something, as I looked across the room and saw Al Gansky and Eva Marie Everson whom I'd had private appointments with many years ago when I was one of the conferees. The only reason I am a member there now is because countless people like them have invested in me. As a new writer, I once expressed my book ideas to Al and Eva, and they encouraged me a lot. Award-winning authors Yvonne Lehman and Steven James welcomed me to their group and shared their knowledge. And Edie, Vonda, Linda, Lynette, Michelle and so many others became my writing friends, offering encouragement and support along the way. I'd never have made it on this journey without them. Last week, I was invited to experience the life in the countryside with some writer friends. I refused the invitation at first. I was away from home a lot because of the numerous book releases and conferences. I felt so exhausted that I just wanted to stay at home. However, my sweet husband said, "Honey, why don't you go? It will be good for you. It can be a great source of inspiration for you."I'd never have made it without the support of this precious man who's been my chief encourager. It moves me to tears to think about all the times he's cleaned the kitchen, folded the laundry, taken care of our children and lugged my suitcases to the car so I can chase my dreams. I wouldn't be where I am today without all the supportive people and I want to give them a much-deserved shout-out today. 46. What does the author enjoy doing at the Blue Ridge Mountains Writers Conference?(No more than 9 words) 47. How do you understand the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3 ? (No more than 10 words) 48. Why did the author refuse the invitation ? ( No more than 7 words ) 49. What did the author's husband do to support her ? ( No more than 10 words ) 50.

I seem to have mixed up the dates. — ________. Let me have a look at your notebook. A. Don’t mention it B. I’m afraid not C. With pleasure D. It’s my pleasure 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：——你能帮我核对一下即将到来的志愿者活动的日程表吗？我似乎把日期搞混了。——非常乐意。让我看看你的笔记本。A.Don’t mention it不客气； B. I’m afraid not恐怕不行； C. With pleasure非常乐意； D. It’s my pleasure不客气。根据题意，答语中“Let me have a look at your notebook.”表明同意了对方的请求，With pleasure常用于愉快地答应对方的请求。 2. Strong rhymes are easy to be remembered. In modern poetry, however, features other than rhyme ________. A. is more important B. are more important C. is less important D. are less important 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：强韵很容易被记住。然而，在现代诗歌中，除了押韵之外的特征更重要。句子的主语是features other than rhyme，中心词features为复数，故谓语动词需用复数形式are，排除A、C选项。根据句中的转折词however可知，现代诗歌与前文情况相反，除了押韵之外的其他特征变得更重要（more important）。 3. ________ times the children have watched their “birthday” video, I’ve lost count. A. However many B. However much C. No matter much D. How many 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：无论孩子们看了多少次他们的“生日”视频，我都数不清了。设空处引导让步状语从句，however many相当于no matter how many，意为“无论多少”后接可数名词复数，后文的times为可数名词复数，应该使用many进行修饰；however much相当于no matter how much，意为“无论多少”，后接不可数名词。 4. Last year, Richard ________ his bike to work every day, but he ________ the bus since the accident. A. rides; takes B. rode; has been taking C. was riding; took D. is riding; has taken 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】考查动词时态。句意：去年，理查德每天骑自行车上班，但自从那次事故后，他一直乘公交车。第一空，根据时间状语“Last year”可知，描述过去经常发生的动作，应用一般过去时，故填rode；第二空，根据时间状语“since the accident”可知，表示动作过去开始到现在仍在发生的动作，应用现在完成进行时，B选项中的has been taking符合语境。 5. The leaders posed ________ for photographs before returning to the conference hall. A. briefly B. secretly C. politely D. formally 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：领导们在返回会议厅之前，短暂地摆好姿势拍了张照。A. briefly短暂地；B. secretly秘密地；C. politely礼貌地；D. formally正式地。结合常识可知，领导在会议间隙拍照通常只是占用很短的时间，随后便要返回会场继续开会，因此表示“短暂地”用briefly符合题意。 6. When the supervisor resigned, his assistant ________ the daily management of the whole department, and he also ________ extra tasks to gain more experience. A. took over; took up B. took up; took over C. took on; took up D. took over; took on 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】句意：当主管辞职时，他的助手接管了整个部门的日常管理，并且他还承担了额外的任务以获得更多的经验。take over接管；take up开始从事；take on承担。第一空表示助手“接管”部门的日常管理，应使用take over；第二空表示“承担”额外的任务，应使用take on。 7. The Emperor ordered the wonderful cloth ________ for him without delay A. to weave B. to be woven C. to have woven D. to be weaving 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：皇帝下令立即为他织出这块奇妙的布。动词order后常接带to的动词不定式作宾语补足语，固定搭配为order sth. to be done(命令某事被做)。句中宾语the wonderful cloth(奇妙的布)与动词weave(编织)之间为逻辑上的被动关系，因此应用动词不定式的被动式to be woven作宾语补足语。 8. I don’t know ________ the boy ________ is standing over there is. A. that; who B. what; who C. what; which D. where; that 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：我不知道站在那里的那个男孩是干什么的。第一空需要填入宾语从句的引导词，宾语从句中缺少表语，应用what来提问人的职业或身份；第二空需要填入定语从句的关系代词，先行词是the boy（指人），且在定语从句中作主语，应用who或that引导。 9. The contemporary artist’s latest exhibition, which innovatively blends traditional oil painting techniques ________ advanced digital projection, has sparked debates on where the boundary between art and technology lies. A. in combination with B. in response to C. in contrast to D. in addition to 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：这位当代艺术家最新的展览创新性地将传统油画技法与先进的数字投影结合在一起，引发了关于艺术与科技界限何在的辩论。A. in combination with与……结合；B. in response to作为对……的回应；C. in contrast to与……形成对比；D. in addition to除……之外（还）。根据前文“innovatively blends(创新性地融合)”可知，该展览是将传统油画技法与数字投影技术“结合在一起”，in combination with符合语境。 10. After the initial meeting, the team carried out a series of experiments, of which the ________ data analysis displayed crucial insights into the project’s achievability. A. previous B. consequent C. additional D. subsequent 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】句意：在最初的会议之后，团队进行了一系列实验，其中随后的数据分析展示了对项目可实现性的关键见解。A. previous以前的；B. consequent作为结果的；C. additional额外的；D. subsequent随后的。根据题意，数据分析是在进行了一系列实验之后发生的步骤，强调时间上的先后顺序。 第二节：完形填空(共20小题;每小题1分，满分20分) 阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从26~45各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 I was sitting alone at Mister Lew’s Win-Win Bar in the Tenderloin, San Francisco, when the barman offered me an Oreo.

Book reviewers use four main strategies to turn their subjective opinions into more objective assessments: spotting personal biases (偏见), maintaining critical autonomy, relying on solid evidence for assessment, and applying reflexive reading. What is this research about? Objectivity is the foundation for sound judgments of truth. This can be hard to apply to aesthetic (审美的) judgments, which are subjective. Critics are constantly trying to have their definition of excellence become the norm in their field. Book reviewers must work past offering a judgment of personal taste to producing an argument to justify their evaluation. How was the research carried out? Thirty in-depth phone interviews were conducted with book reviewers who worked for large American newspapers. The interviews explored how reviewers determine what good fiction is and how they convey their conclusions in their reviews. What did the research find? It found that there are four strategies book reviewers employ to maintain critical distance. Critics of subjective topics use approaches that are similar to ones used by those making judgment in scientific matters. 1) Recognizing conflicts of interest Before agreeing to take on a project, critics must assess if the relationship they have with the author could affect their evaluation. Critics are more concerned with giving unfair negative reviews than excessively positive reviews. 2) Keeping independent judgment Reviewer s are conscious of factors that can affect their judgment. This includes reviews of the same book written by other critics. Reading a review written by another critic might encourage a reviewer to change their own evaluation to match the opinion of that critic, or intentionally write an opposite opinion just to seem different. 3) ________ Part of the authority that comes from a critic comes from their knowledge of literature. Critics recognize what characteristics good fiction has and must be able to both recognize and quantify those qualities in a new book. 4) Reflexive reading Reviewers need to ensure that they are reading critically, and constantly questioning their responses to the text. They will read it once as a reader and then again as a critic. Critics said that their first response to a novel is emotional. After their initial reaction, however, critics must evaluate if their response was an indication of quality. How can you use this research? This research helps shed light on how art reviews are created. It helps explain the processes that go into creating fair and reasonable reviews of subjective subjects. 31. What does the underlined word “autonomy” mean in the box? A. Freedom. B. Independence. C. Sensibility. D. Objectivity. 32. Which of the following best completes the blanks above? A. Evidence-based reviewing B. Authority-based evaluation C. Literary accomplishment D. Professional literary judgment 33. What can be learned from the passage is that ________. A. approaches to scientific reviewing do not apply to reviews of literature B. the research was carried out by professors through laboratory experiments C. a book reviewer needs to read the book being reviewed at least twice D. a reviewer’s personal taste is meant to be clearly reflected in their reviews 【答案】31. B 32. A 33. C 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了一项关于书评客观性的研究，指出书评者通过识别利益冲突、保持独立判断、基于证据评估和反思性阅读四种策略，将主观意见转化为客观评价。 【31题详解】 词句猜测题。根据文章第一段中的“Book reviewers use four main strategies to turn their subjective opinions into more objective assessments: spotting personal biases (偏见), maintaining critical autonomy, relying on solid evidence for assessment, and applying reflexive reading.(书评人使用四种主要策略，将个人的主观意见转化为更为客观的评价：发现个人偏见、保持批判性……、依靠确凿的证据进行评估，以及运用反思性阅读。)”以及后文小标题“2) Keeping independent judgment(保持独立的判断)”可知，划线词所强调的内容与后文提到的策略相呼应，即强调的是保持独立性的判断，故此处划线词autonomy与B选项independence意思相近，意为“独立、自主”。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段中的“relying on solid evidence for assessment (依靠确凿的证据进行评估)”以及第3点“Part of the authority that comes from a critic comes from their knowledge of literature. Critics recognize what characteristics good fiction has and must be able to both recognize and quantify those qualities in a new book.(评论家的部分权威来源于他们的文学知识。他们能识别优秀小说的特征，并且必须能够在一本新书中识别并量化这些特质。)”这一策略强调的是评论家基于文学特征和证据来进行评估。A项“Evidence-based reviewing(基于证据的评论)”最符合该段主旨。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第4点“Reflexive reading(反思性阅读)”中的“They will read it once as a reader and then again as a critic.(他们会先作为读者读一次，然后再作为评论家读一次。)”可知，书评人至少需要将待评的书籍阅读两次。C选项“a book reviewer needs to read the book being reviewed at least twice(书评人需要至少读过被评论的书籍两次)”符合题意。 B I have always felt most comfortable in the classroom, and I enjoy the recognition from family and teachers for accomplishing a job well. Although I was a high achiever, I was not a student who joined every club. Throughout my life, I wanted to learn more than I wanted to be in a bunch of extracurriculars (课外活动). My academic journey continued at a community college, where I joined the student newspaper. In the newsroom, I discovered an engaging, fast-paced world that allowed me to never stop learning. It was just what I had expected. Now my transfer (转学) to Drake University for a journalism degree was a no-brainer. It was exciting to see my future become clear, but I never pictured the shock waves headed my way. The campus phenomenon known as “Drake Busy” was completely unexpected. The term describes the idea that constant busyness is the main indicator of college success. Within the first week, I felt heavy pressure to be active in all the ways my peers (同伴) were. I saw students trying to balance multiple jobs and organizations alongside schoolwork. As a student used to having confidence in the classroom, I felt this new standard threatened my identity and worsened my anxiety. I spent my first term struggling with doubts about my worthiness. My anxious thoughts tricked my mind into believing lies like “You’re not good enough.” A part of my mind realized those thoughts were not true, but that sensible voice was a whisper compared to the shouts of doubt. As a witness to this battle every day, I have learned that sometimes it just takes time to chip away at my mind’s inventions. In time, I recognized that my experience as a transfer student was different but valuable. The outsider perspective helped me tackle “Drake Busy”. I watched people trying to do too much at the expense of their well-being. I wanted to shake them and say, “Why do this to yourself?” Instead of fighting the current, I eventually learned to swim in my own lane. The pressure didn’t disappear, but my need to give in to it did. I realized that my worth wasn’t calculated by the number of meetings on my calendar, but by the real satisfaction I felt in my work. On the days I managed to balance my ambition with my peace of mind, I felt most motivated. I discovered that: true success is defined internally, not by the noise around you. 34. Before entering Drake University, the author ________. A. adopted a relaxing lifestyle B. longed to become a teacher C. struggled to choose a major D. performed well academically 35. How did the author feel within the first week at Drake University? A. Unaccustomed. B. Relieved. C. Regretful. D. Expectant. 36. What does the author think of the “Drake Busy” lifestyle? A. It lowers students’ learning efficiency. B. It indicates students’ future success. C. It threatens students’ well-being. D. It erases students’ self-doubt. 37. What message does the passage deliver? A. Outsiders rarely win. B. Your own pace matters. C. Busyness equals worthiness. D. Your anxiety drives you forward. 【答案】34. D 35. A 36. C 37. B 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述了作者从社区学院转学到德雷克大学后，面对校园内“Drake Busy”现象带来的压力与焦虑，最终学会按照自己的节奏生活、重新找到自我价值的心路历程。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Although I was a high achiever, I was not a student who joined every club. (虽然我是一个成绩优异的学生，但我并不是一个参加所有社团的学生。)”可知，作者在转学之前学业上表现优异。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Within the first week, I felt heavy pressure to be active in all the ways my peers were. (在第一周内，我感到巨大的压力，要以同伴们所有的活跃方式去参与活动。)”以及“As a student used to having confidence in the classroom, I felt this new standard threatened my identity and worsened my anxiety. (作为一个习惯在课堂上有自信的学生，我感到这种新标准威胁到了我的身份认同，并加剧了我的焦虑。)”可知，作者第一周感到不适应这种全新的校园氛围。 【36题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“I watched people trying to do too much at the expense of their well-being. (我看到人们试图做太多事情，却以牺牲自己的幸福感为代价。)”可知，作者认为“Drake Busy”这种生活方式威胁到了学生的身心健康。 【37题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段中“Instead of fighting the current, I eventually learned to swim in my own lane. (我不再与潮流对抗，最终学会了在自己的泳道里游泳。)”以及“I discovered that: true success is defined internally, not by the noise around you. (我发现：真正的成功是由内心定义的，而非周围的喧嚣。)”可知，文章传达的信息是：走自己的路、按照自己的节奏生活才是最重要的。 C Friday nights have a special energy that seems to be felt by almost everyone. But what is it about Friday nights that makes people feel so happy? A key psychological driver behind this phenomenon is the power of anticipation. When people are looking forward to something their mood tends to improve. Another reason people are happier on Friday nights is the sense of breaking the routine. Friday nights offer a chance to break away from that routine and socialize with friends, which can be a source of happiness. The “weekend effect” brings a surge of happiness on Friday as work stress lifts and the freedom of the weekend begins. But for many of us, by the time Sunday afternoon rolls around, a feeling of intense anxiety and dread sets in — often referred to as the “Sunday scaries”. A new study led by the University of Exeter has found that many employees experience the “Sunday scaries”. This phenomenon often takes the form of mental preoccupation with the week ahead, as well as feelings of nervousness and difficulty in sleeping. “It’s as if your mind starts to turn from what is generally either relaxation or enjoyment at the weekend, into worries about everything you’ve got to do in the working week ahead.” No matter how fun or relaxing Friday evening and Saturday were, the so-called “Sunday Scaries” tend to creep up while we’re enjoying the last hours of the weekend. A new survey shows that 75% of workers experience pre-week anxiety and may report even having trouble falling asleep on Sundays compared to other nights. Today, with hybrid work becoming the norm, the isolation of working from home, the blurring of boundaries between work and life, and the invisible burden of being on call around the clock have trapped modern professionals in a cycle of exhaustion. Also, the “Sunday Scaries” intensify when we feel we should have enjoyed the weekend more, making the return to work seem unjustified. This anticipation easily blossoms into the “Monday Blues,” particularly if we’ve learned to associate work with stress. A tool that helps us focus less on the past or future and more on the present is meditation. It teaches us to cultivate mindful awareness, observe thoughts without immediately reacting, and navigate pre-weekend anxiety with composure (镇定), all of which helps us prepare for the challenges of the upcoming week. 38. Why do people feel happy on Friday nights? A. Because they totally forget work stress on Friday nights. B. Because they expect the weekend and escape daily life. C. Because socializing improves work efficiency. D. Because they are free from future worries. 39. What does “Sunday scaries” mean according to the passage? A. A strong feeling of fear and worry before the workweek. B. A kind of mental illness that makes people sleepy. C. The worries brought by the coming weekend. D. The excitement of enjoying the last hours of the weekend. 40. Which of the following is NOT a cause of the “Sunday scaries”? A. The unclear line between work and personal life. B. The stress from being available around the clock. C. The comfort brought by flexible work patterns. D. The regret of not making the most of the weekend. 41. What is the main purpose of the passage? A. To introduce the advantages of hybrid work. B. To explain weekend mood shifts and provide a solution. C. To show how to enjoy the weekend to the fullest. D. To persuade people to work hard on Mondays. 【答案】38. B 39. A 40. C 41. B 【解析】 【导语】文章主要探讨了周五晚上人们感到快乐的原因(期待周末和打破常规)，以及周日下午出现的“周日焦虑”现象及其成因(工作压力、社交隔离等)，并建议通过冥想等方式应对。 【38题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“A key psychological driver behind this phenomenon is the power of anticipation. When people are looking forward to something their mood tends to improve. Another reason people are happier on Friday nights is the sense of breaking the routine. Friday nights offer a chance to break away from that routine and socialize with friends, which can be a source of happiness. (这一现象背后的一个关键心理因素是期待的力量。当人们期待某件事时，他们的情绪往往会变得更好。人们在周五晚上更快乐的另一个原因，是打破了日常生活的单调。周五晚上提供了摆脱日常事务的机会，可以与朋友相聚社交，这本身就是一种幸福的来源。)”可知，人们在周五晚上感到快乐是因为他们期待周末的到来，并且能够逃离日常的生活规律。 【39题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段中的“a feeling of intense anxiety and dread sets in — often referred to as the ‘Sunday scaries’(一种强烈的焦虑和恐惧感随之而来——通常被称为‘周日晚恐惧症’)”以及第三段中的“This phenomenon often takes the form of mental preoccupation with the week ahead, as well as feelings of nervousness and difficulty in sleeping. (这种现象通常表现为对接下来一周的过度担忧，以及紧张感和睡眠困难。)”可知，“Sunday scaries”指的是在新一周工作开始前产生的强烈恐惧和担忧情绪。 【40题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Today, with hybrid work becoming the norm, the isolation of working from home, the blurring of boundaries between work and life, and the invisible burden of being on call around the clock have trapped modern professionals in a cycle of exhaustion. (如今，随着混合办公成为常态，居家办公带来的孤立感、工作与生活界限的模糊化，以及全天候待命所带来的无形压力，使现代职场人士陷入持续疲惫的循环之中。)”可知，A选项“The unclear line between work and personal life.(工作与个人生活之间的界限模糊不清。)”与B选项“The stress from being available around the clock.(全天候待命带来的压力。)”是导致“周日晚恐惧症”的原因；根据该段中的“Also, the ‘Sunday Scaries’ intensify when we feel we should have enjoyed the weekend more(同样，当我们觉得应该更充实地享受周末时，‘周日晚恐惧症’会加剧)”可知，D选项“The regret of not making the most of the weekend.(对没能好好利用周末的遗憾。)”也是原因之一。而C项“The comfort brought by flexible work patterns.(灵活工作模式带来的舒适感)”在文中并未提及，不是导致该症状的原因。 【41题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文可知，文章前四段详细解释了人们为什么在周五晚上感到快乐，以及为什么在周日晚上会产生“周日晚恐惧症”(即周末情绪的转变)；最后一段提出了一种应对这种焦虑的方法——冥想(meditation)。因此，这篇文章的主要目的是解释周末情绪的转变并提供解决方案。 D ChatGPT is a powerful artificial intelligence developed by OpenAI that is widely known for its smooth human-computer interaction and professional question-answering ability.

This is the conference where I got my start about 15 years ago, so it feels special whenever I go back there. I usually teach multiple sessions, host a table at meals where I can talk with conferees, and often have about 40-50 private appointments with attendees. I take great pleasure in giving my personal advice on the beginners' writing journey after listening to their puzzlement. And then I realized something, as I looked across the room and saw Al Gansky and Eva Marie Everson whom I'd had private appointments with many years ago when I was one of the conferees. The only reason I am a member there now is because countless people like them have invested in me. As a new writer, I once expressed my book ideas to Al and Eva, and they encouraged me a lot. Award-winning authors Yvonne Lehman and Steven James welcomed me to their group and shared their knowledge. And Edie, Vonda, Linda, Lynette, Michelle and so many others became my writing friends, offering encouragement and support along the way. I'd never have made it on this journey without them. Last week, I was invited to experience the life in the countryside with some writer friends. I refused the invitation at first. I was away from home a lot because of the numerous book releases and conferences. I felt so exhausted that I just wanted to stay at home. However, my sweet husband said, "Honey, why don't you go? It will be good for you. It can be a great source of inspiration for you."I'd never have made it without the support of this precious man who's been my chief encourager. It moves me to tears to think about all the times he's cleaned the kitchen, folded the laundry, taken care of our children and lugged my suitcases to the car so I can chase my dreams. I wouldn't be where I am today without all the supportive people and I want to give them a much-deserved shout-out today. 46.

Actually, they mean exactly the same thing. A big feature of Chinese is its flexible word order. We can change the order of words freely in daily talk while keeping the original meaning. By contrast, English has relatively fixed sentence structures and we seldom rearrange words like this. One sentence talks about sand entering the eye, while the other describes the uncomfortable condition of the eye, both making sense. We should respect and accept such differences when learning a new language. Don’t feel puzzled. Keep practicing and communicating. I believe you will gradually get used to its unique expressions and make great progress soon. Best regards, Li Jin 【解析】 【导语】本篇书面表达要求考生给Chris写一封回信解释，要求用浅显易懂的方式讲解汉语的特点、对比中英文表达习惯的差异，体现包容理解以及最后鼓励他多表达，增进交际。 【详解】1.词汇积累 高兴的：glad→delighted 困惑：confusion→bewilderment 适应：get used to→adjust to 进步：progress→advancement 2.句式拓展 句型转换 原句：By contrast, English has relatively fixed sentence structures and we seldom rearrange words like this. 拓展句：While English has relatively fixed sentence structures, we seldom rearrange words like this. 【点睛】【高分句型1】We should respect and accept such differences when learning a new language.（运用了when引导的省略句） 【高分句型2】I believe you will gradually get used to its unique expressions and make great progress soon.（运用了省略that的宾语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
