Helping strangers can leave you with a deep sense of satisfaction, but you’ve likely also felt the stress of showing up for others when you’re already stretched thin. These ordinary moments speak to a philosophical puzzle: Are moral people happier? 1 Others might reason that moral behavior often requires self-sacrifice. 2 Past studies clearly show that people feel good when they perform acts of kindness for others. But researchers had not directly examined if moral character, broadly speaking, is linked to well-being. So my team conducted a set of studies to take this challenge seriously. In one of our studies, undergraduate students reported on their own well-being, rating their happiness as well as their sense of how meaningful their life is. 3 Then these close others, such as friends and family members, rated the participant’s moral character using our questionnaire (调查问卷), which asked how much that person had the various characteristics identified as most morally relevant. 4 Doing the right thing isn’t always easy. 5 But our findings indicate that, in general, there’s no trade-off between morality and well-being. Instead, people with stronger moral character tend to experience greater meaning in life and happiness. This suggests that moments of moral effort may be part of a life that, taken as a whole, feels more satisfying. A．Until recently, scientific evidence had been limited to one aspect of morality: kindness. B．Despite various debates, there’s no agreement on what it means to be morally good. C．Standing up for someone who is being treated unfairly can feel uncomfortable. D．Some might assume morality and happiness naturally go together. E．They also gave us contact information for people who know them. F．We found that those rated as more moral reported a stronger sense of well-being. G．This might be in part because of the difficulties of defining and measuring kindness. 【答案】1．D 2．A 3．E 4．F 5．C 【导语】文章围绕“品行高尚的人是否更幸福”这一话题展开，介绍相关研究过程与实验结论，论证道德品质与幸福感总体并不冲突，品德越高的人往往幸福感更强。 1．由上文“These ordinary moments speak to a philosophical puzzle: Are moral people happier?(这些日常小事引出了一个哲学难题：品德高尚的人会更幸福吗？)”以及下文“Others might reason that moral behavior often requires self-sacrifice(另一些人可能认为道德行为往往需要自我牺牲。)”可知，前后为Some... Others... 结构，分别介绍人们对于道德和幸福关系的两种截然不同看法。D选项“Some might assume morality and happiness naturally go together.(有些人会认为道德与幸福本就相伴相生。)”能承上启下，符合题意，该选项中“morality and happiness”呼应上文“Are moral people happier”，“Some”与下文“Others”构成逻辑呼应。 2．由下文“Past studies clearly show that people feel good when they perform acts of kindness for others. But researchers had not directly examined if moral character, broadly speaking, is linked to well-being.(以往研究明确表明人们对他人行善时心情愉悦。但研究人员此前并未大范围直接研究道德品质是否与幸福感存在关联。)”可知，本段介绍以往研究的局限性。A选项“Until recently, scientific evidence had been limited to one aspect of morality: kindness.(直到近期，科学证据仅局限于道德的一个层面：善意善行。)”能引出旧研究的短板，承接下文内容，该选项中“Until recently”与下文“Past studies”形成呼应，“kindness”与下文“acts of kindness”相呼应。 3．由上文“In one of our studies, undergraduate students reported on their own well-being, rating their happiness as well as their sense of how meaningful their life is. (在其中一项研究中，本科生们反馈了自身的幸福状态，给自己的快乐程度以及人生意义感打分。)”以及下文“Then these close others, such as friends and family members, rated the participant’s moral character using our questionnaire (调查问卷), which asked how much that person had the various characteristics identified as most morally relevant.(随后，他们的亲友等亲近之人，通过我们设计的问卷评价受试者的道德品行；问卷会考察这个人具备多少公认的、与道德高度相关的各项特质。)”可知，空格内容是衔接受试者本人填写信息、亲友评价的过渡环节。E选项“They also gave us contact information for people who know them.(他们还向我们提供了熟人的联系方式。)”能承上启下，该选项中“They”指代上文“undergraduate students”，下文“these close others”对应选项中“who know them”，符合题意。 4．由上文“In one of our studies, undergraduate students reported on their own well-being, rating their happiness as well as their sense of how meaningful their life is. (在其中一项研究中，本科生们反馈了自身的幸福状态，给自己的快乐程度以及人生意义感打分。)”、“Then these close others, such as friends and family members, rated the participant’s moral character using our questionnaire (调查问卷), which asked how much that person had the various characteristics identified as most morally relevant.(随后，他们的亲友等亲近之人，通过我们设计的问卷评价受试者的道德品行；问卷会考察这个人具备多少公认的、与道德高度相关的各项特质。)”可知，前文完整描述实验流程：学生自评幸福感→提供亲友联系方式→亲友评价道德品行。F选项“We found that those rated as more moral reported a stronger sense of well-being.(我们发现被评价为道德感更强的受试者，幸福感也更高。)”能总结本次实验结果，收束本段实验内容，该选项中“a stronger sense of well-being”与上文“reported on their own well-being”形成呼应。 5．由上文“Doing the right thing isn’t always easy.(坚守正确的事往往并不轻松。)”以及下文“But our findings indicate that, in general, there’s no trade-off between morality and well-being.(但我们的发现表明道德与幸福感总体不存在取舍矛盾。)”可知，空格处举例说明行善过程的艰难，与下文形成转折。C选项“Standing up for someone who is being treated unfairly can feel uncomfortable.(为遭受不公的人挺身而出，过程可能令人煎熬。)”能承上启下，符合题意，该选项中“Standing up for someone”与上文“Doing the right thing”相呼应，“isn’t always easy”与下文But转折逻辑契合。 （2025·北京·高考真题）What is adulthood? Societies all over the world view the concept of an adult as self-supporting and self-directed, because it identifies a point in the life cycle. As Alice Black points out, today’s parents’ fear of letting kids do more housework has added to their inability to feel competent and, thus, confident in themselves. Psychologist Robert Turner wrote about this in his book, The Life Cycle, mentioning a stage when kids learn self-direction and mastery. 1 But Turner’s other cycles are just as important. 2 If these life cycles are delayed, interrupted, or denied, you feel incapable of accessing your states of self, controlling unpleasant feelings, and manipulating (操控) the energy that puts together the fabric of your inner world. Turner wisely said that “doing well” psychologically is being able to roll with the flow of emotions, manage them, communicate clearly and well with others, and master various skills. This requires an internal locus (核心) of control, which implies self-control of your thoughts, feelings, and actions. 3 You’re self-directed and not reliant on the world to tell you who you are. And you know who you are within all this. So, being an adult isn’t just holding a job. Being an adult is about having a rooted sense of self while being capable of identifying and managing your emotions and actions. 4 We are a social species, so this is important. While raising an adult is a parent’s job, it’s also our responsibility as a society to ensure that we support schools that nurture (培养) emotional and identity development. 5 A．It’s also our job to support adults who need help repairing incomplete life cycles. B．They talk about someone’s inability to support themselves through work. C．It’s being able to show understanding when communicating with others. D．In other words, you’re playing the game of life — life isn’t playing you. E．They teach emotional awareness and management as well as identity. F．You feel like an 18-year old, especially when playing 80s music. G．When this stage is denied it creates a sense of insecurity. 【答案】1．G 2．E 3．D 4．C 5．A 【导语】本文是一篇议论文，文章主要探讨了成年人的定义及其所需具备的特质，并强调了社会在培养成年人方面的责任。 1．由上文“As Alice Black points out, today’s parents’ fear of letting kids do more housework has added to their inability to feel competent and, thus, confident in themselves. Psychologist Robert Turner wrote about this in his book, The Life Cycle, mentioning a stage when kids learn self-direction and mastery. (正如Alice Black所指出的，如今父母害怕让孩子做更多家务，这加剧了孩子们无法感受到自身的能力，进而也导致他们对自己缺乏自信。心理学家Robert Turner在他的著作《生命周期》中提到了这一点，他提到了孩子们学习自我指导和掌握技能的阶段。)”可知，本空应强调这个阶段的重要性或缺失这个阶段会带来什么影响。G选项“When this stage is denied it creates a sense of insecurity. (当这个阶段被剥夺时，就会产生一种不安全感。)”符合题意，承接上文，说明了这个阶段被剥夺的后果。故选G。 2．由上文“But Turner’s other cycles are just as important. (但Turner的其他周期也同样重要。)”以及下文“If these life cycles are delayed, interrupted, or denied, you feel incapable of accessing your states of self, controlling unpleasant feelings, and manipulating (操控) the energy that puts together the fabric of your inner world. (如果这些生命周期被延迟、中断或拒绝，你会觉得自己无法进入自我状态，无法控制不愉快的情绪，也无法操控构成你内心世界结构的能量。)”可知，本空应解释它们的重要性体现在哪里。E选项“They teach emotional awareness and management as well as identity. (它们教授情感意识和管理以及身份认同。)”能承上启下，符合题意。故选E。 3．由上文“Turner wisely said that “doing well” psychologically is being able to roll with the flow of emotions, manage them, communicate clearly and well with others, and master various skills. This requires an internal locus (核心) of control, which implies self-control of your thoughts, feelings, and actions. (Turner明智地指出，从心理上讲，“做得好”就是能够顺应情绪的流动，管理它们，与他人清晰而良好地沟通，并掌握各种技能。这需要一个内部的控制点，这意味着对自己的思想、情感和行动进行自我控制。)”可知，本空应进一步解释这种内部控制点或自我控制的意义。D选项“In other words, you’re playing the game of life — life isn’t playing you. (换句话说，你是在玩人生的游戏——而不是人生在玩你。)”能承接上文，符合题意，用比喻的方式解释了内部控制点的意义，即你能够掌控自己的人生，而不是被人生所掌控。故选D。 4．由上文“So, being an adult isn’t just holding a job. Being an adult is about having a rooted sense of self while being capable of identifying and managing your emotions and actions. (所以，成为一个成年人不仅仅是拥有一份工作。成为一个成年人意味着拥有一种根深蒂固的自我意识，同时能够识别和管理自己的情绪和行动。)”可知，本空应进一步描述成年人的其他特质或能力。C选项“It’s being able to show understanding when communicating with others. (它是在与他人交流时能够表现出理解。)”能承接上文，符合题意，补充了成年人在与他人交流时应具备的能力，即表现出理解。故选C。 5．由上文“While raising an adult is a parent’s job, it’s also our responsibility as a society to ensure that we support schools that nurture (培养) emotional and identity development. (虽然培养一个成年人是父母的工作，但作为社会，我们也有责任确保我们支持那些培养情感和身份发展的学校。)”可知，本空应进一步描述社会在培养成年人方面的其他责任。A选项“It’s also our job to support adults who need help repairing incomplete life cycles. (支持那些需要帮助修复不完整生命周期的成年人也是我们的工作。)”能承接上文，符合题意，补充了社会在培养成年人方面的另一项责任，即支持那些需要帮助修复不完整生命周期的成年人。故选A。 （2024·北京·高考真题）If you want to develop maximum credibility (可信性), is it better to be a hedgehog (刺猬) or a fox? According to Isaiah Berlin, the hedgehog knows one thing very well, and the fox knows a lot of things. Is there a clear advantage of one style over the other? Hedgehog thinkers tend to answer yes. 1 And they are usually very credible in doing so. According to Jim Hart, the “hedgehog concept” is one of the factors that lead companies to greatness. They focus on one thing and do it really well. They figure out what they are good at. 2 The hedgehog concept makes perfect sense for companies. 3 Philip Tate has studied the track records of those folks on the Sunday talk shows who make predictions about what will happen. He has found that hedgehogs are not only wrong more often than foxes, but that they are less likely to recognise or admit that they are wrong when events do not match their predictions. The advantage that foxes have is that they are more likely to seek out new information from a broader range of sources, and are comfortable with uncertainty and new information. 4 They try to include it in their viewpoint rather than to exclude it from their thinking. They also have a clearer estimation of what they know and don’t know. So, which is better? The question can be answered in a foxy hedgehog style. 5 The choice between being a hedgehog or a fox is a false trade-off. The most effective way to go through life is to try to be that rare mixture known as foxy hedgehog. A．In other words, there are clear advantages for each. B．They are more likely to remember people’s mistakes. C．Hence, they have the advantage of clarity and confidence. D．But there can be a downside to concentration on one big thing. E．However, hedgehogs remain open to others’ reactions and inputs. F．When something is contradictory to their view, they don’t treat it as exceptional. G．They come down squarely on one side or the other and fully support their position. 【答案】1．G 2．C 3．D 4．F 5．A 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了拥有“刺猬”型思维方式和“狐狸”型思维方式的两类人对于个人和企业建立信誉度的优劣势。 1．根据上文“Hedgehog thinkers tend to answer yes.(拥有“刺猬”型思维方式的人倾向于给出肯定的答案)” 可知，拥有“刺猬”型思维方式的人倾向于给出肯定的答案，G项中They 指代上文中的Hedgehog，G项“他们明确地站在一边或另一边，并全力支持自己的立场”说明拥有“刺猬”型思维方式的人往往有明确的立场，承接上文，符合语境。故选G。 2．根据上文“They focus on one thing and do it really well. They figure out what they are good at. (他们专注于一件事并把它做得很好。他们知道自己擅长什么)”可知，拥有“刺猬”型思维方式的人具备优点，他们可以专注于一件事并知道自己擅长什么。C项“因此，他们的优势是（头脑）清楚和自信”进一步说明拥有“刺猬”型思维方式的人的优点，承接上文，符合语境。故选C。 3．根据下文“He has found that hedgehogs are not only wrong more often than foxes, but that they are less likely to recognise or admit that they are wrong when events do not match their predictions. (他发现，拥有“刺猬”型思维方式的人不仅比拥有“狐狸”型思维方式的人更容易出错，而且当事情与他们的预测不相符时他们不太可能意识到，也不太可能承认自己错了)”可知，此处介绍拥有“刺猬”型思维方式的人的缺点。D项“但是，把注意力集中在一件大事上可能会有不利的一面” 引出下文，介绍拥有“刺猬”型思维方式的人具备缺点，符合语境。故选D。 4．根据上文“The advantage that foxes have is that they are more likely to seek out new information from a broader range of sources, and are comfortable with uncertainty and new information. (“狐狸”型思维方式的人的优势在于，他们更有可能从更广泛的来源中寻找新信息，并且对不确定性和新信息感到舒适)”和下文“They try to include it in their viewpoint rather than to exclude it from their thinking. (他们试图将其纳入自己的观点，而不是将其排除在自己的思维之外)”可知，此处介绍拥有“狐狸”型思维方式的人处理事情的方式。F项“当某件事与他们的观点相矛盾时，他们不会把它当作例外”承上启下，符合语境。故选F。 5．根据上文“The question can be answered in a foxy hedgehog style. (这个问题可以用“像狐狸的刺猬”风格来回答)”和下文“The choice between being a hedgehog or a fox is a false trade-off. (成为拥有“刺猬”型思维方式的人还是拥有“狐狸”型思维方式的人的选择是一种错误的权衡)”可知，拥有“刺猬”型思维方式的人和拥有“狐狸”型思维方式的人各有优势。A项“换句话说，两者都有其明显的优势”承上启下，符合语境。故选A。 （2023·北京·高考真题）It’s a joyful and stressful time of year in the United States for students and their families as they make decisions about where to attend college. Families often turn to rankings systems to help make a decision. 1 When I talk to families as a scholar of higher education, they’re often surprised that teaching excellence is not counted in rankings. 2 Emerging research suggests that courses in lower-ranked universities, on average, scored higher on teaching than courses in higher-ranked universities. 3 The absence of teaching excellence from the rankings is surprising given the link between high-quality teaching and student success. Quality teaching is one of the most important predictors of a wide range of college outcomes. Rankings, however, are only one reason why a low value is placed on teaching in higher education. Administrators often don’t view teaching excellence as a way to increase enrolment (注册) or funding. 4 Research shows that the more time instructors spend on teaching, the lower their salary. What is the result? Many instructors continue to teach using traditional lectures, which lead to lower success rates. 5 Nevertheless, not much will change until schools with high-quality teaching are rewarded with more resources, higher rankings and increased enrolments. In the long term, universities, organisations that rank schools, and others should work to make teaching a valued, core part of the mission. What should students and their families do? They should give strong consideration to universities where high-quality teaching is valued, even though the schools may be ranked lower. A．Higher education has achieved its true potential. B．Therefore, it’s not highly valued in hiring or promotion. C．Quality teaching has been an important reputation-building factor. D．However, the rankings ignore a critical factor: the quality of teaching. E．Efforts to improve teaching at the university level have recently emerged. F．They’re even more surprised at how teaching is undervalued by universities. G．In fact, universities often shift emphasis from teaching to other ranking factors. 【答案】1．D 2．F 3．G 4．B 5．E 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要就如何选择高校提供了一些建议。 1．根据空前内容“It’s a joyful and stressful time of year in the United States for students and their families as they make decisions about where to attend college. Families often turn to rankings systems to help make a decision.(对于美国的学生和他们的家人来说，这是一年中既快乐又紧张的时刻，因为他们要决定去哪里上大学。家庭经常求助于排名系统来帮助做决定。)”可知，美国的学生和家人们在决定去哪儿上大学时，经常求助于排名系统。而根据下文第三段“Emerging research suggests that courses in lower-ranked universities, on average, scored higher on teaching than courses in higher-ranked universities. (最新的研究表明，排名较低的大学的课程在教学方面的平均得分高于排名较高的大学的课程。)”可推断出，本文主要讲述的是排名方面出现的问题。选项D“However, the rankings ignore a critical factor: the quality of teaching.(然而，排名忽略了一个关键因素：教学质量。)”延续上文内容，指出大学排名存在的问题；而根据下文内容也可以推断，排名中存在的问题是教学质量被忽略。故选D。 2．根据空前内容“When I talk to families as a scholar of higher education, they’re often surprised that teaching excellence is not counted in rankings.(作为一名研究高等教育的学者，当我与一些家庭交谈时，他们常常惊讶地发现，优秀的教学水平并没有被纳入排名。)”可知，大学排名中优秀的教学水平并没有被纳入排名让人们觉得很惊讶。选项F“They’re even more surprised at how teaching is undervalued by universities.(更让他们惊讶的是，大学竟然低估了教学的价值。)”延续上文内容，指的都是大学排名忽略教学质量。其中“more surprised”和上文的“surprised”保持一致。故选F。 3．空前内容“Emerging research suggests that courses in lower-ranked universities, on average, scored higher on teaching than courses in higher-ranked universities.(最新的研究表明，排名较低的大学的课程在教学方面的平均得分高于排名较高的大学的课程。)”以及空后内容“The absence of teaching excellence from the rankings is surprising given the link between high-quality teaching and student success. Quality teaching is one of the most important predictors of a wide range of college outcomes.(考虑到高质量教学与学生成功之间的联系，排名中没有优秀教学令人惊讶。优质教学是衡量大学成绩的最重要因素之一。)”讲述的都是大学排名中没有考虑到教学。选项G“In fact, universities often shift emphasis from teaching to other ranking factors.(事实上，大学经常把重点从教学转移到其他排名因素上。)”与上下文内容相一致，故选G。 4．根据空前内容“Rankings, however, are only one reason why a low value is placed on teaching in higher education. Administrators often don’t view teaching excellence as a way to increase enrolment (注册) or funding.(然而，排名只是高等教育中对教学重视程度较低的一个原因。管理者通常不会将卓越的教学视为增加入学率或资金的一种方式。)”可知，上文分析了教学不被纳入排名的原因，该空应该讲其后果。选项B“Therefore, it’s not highly valued in hiring or promotion.(因此，它在招聘或晋升中不受重视。)”是上文内容的延续，正因为管理人员通常不把卓越的教学视为增加入学率或增加资金的一种方式，所以教学在招聘和晋升中不受重视。故选B。 5．根据下文内容“Nevertheless, not much will change until schools with high-quality teaching are rewarded with more resources, higher rankings and increased enrolments. In the long term, universities, organisations that rank schools, and others should work to make teaching a valued, core part of the mission.(尽管如此，在拥有高质量教学的学校获得更多资源、更高排名和增加入学人数之前，不会有太大变化。从长远来看，大学、学校排名组织和其他机构应该努力使教学成为使命的一个有价值的核心部分。)”可知，此处算是站在大学的角度，提出如何把教学当成他们的首要核心任务。根据“Nevertheless”可知，空处内容和下文内容存在转折关系。选项E“Efforts to improve teaching at the university level have recently emerged.(在最近，努力改进教学水平的现象已经出现了。)”与下文形成转折，旨在说明，促使教学成为核心任务的艰巨性和重要性。故选E。 （2022·北京·高考真题）Health and fitness help a person live a good and healthy life. Often due to various pressures, we tend to ignore our health. 1 It is the fitness level of our body that helps us fight these diseases. 2 We need to be fit to have a healthy body.

We may not have any disease but still have a weak body, which is ready to be targeted by viruses. 3 This does not definitely mean that we are not healthy. It means the fitness level is not in accordance with our age and the climatic conditions we live in. It is important for everyone to devote some time to health and fitness. 4 For instance, we must exercise daily regardless of our age and working style. There are different levels of exercises for different age groups and we must do them according to our own health and age. Additionally, it is important to relax our body. We should have at least six to eight hours of sleep every day.

E．If we keep our body fit, we can enjoy life in a better manner. F．There are some activities which everyone should do in our life. G．This makes our body suffer and we will catch other diseases. 【答案】1．G 2．B 3．D 4．F 5．C 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲的是健康和健身之间密不可分的关系以及我们应该通过哪些健身的方式来让自己有一个健康的身体。 1．根据空前“Health and fitness help a person live a good and healthy life. Often due to various pressures, we tend to ignore our health.(健康和健身帮助一个人过上良好和健康的生活。由于各种各样的压力，我们往往会忽视自己的健康。)”可知因为各种压力，我们的健康容易被忽视，根据空后“It is the fitness level of our body that helps us fight these diseases.(正是我们身体的健康水平帮助我们对抗这些疾病。)”可知身体的健康可以让我们应对各种疾病，空处承上启下，所以空处应该讲忽视健康对我们的身体及生活的影响。G项“This makes our body suffer and we will catch other diseases.(这使我们的身体遭受痛苦，而且我们会感染其他疾病。)”承接上文，引出下文，而且G项中的other diseases与空后的these diseases相互照应，符合上下文语境。故选G项。 2．根据空后“We need to be fit to have a healthy body. Similarly, if we are healthy we shall naturally be attracted towards maintaining the fitness of our body.(为了拥有一个健康的身体我们需要健康。同样，如果我们是健康的，我们自然会被保持健康的身体所吸引。)”可知健康的身体与健身是密不可分的，空处位于句首，应是本段的主旨句，B项“Health and fitness are interrelated to each other.(健康和健身是相互关联的。)”概括全段的主要内容，符合上下文语境。故选B项。 3．根据空前“Health is the state of our body at a given time. We may not have any disease but still have a weak body, which is ready to be targeted by viruses.(健康是在特定时间内我们身体的状态。我们可能没有任何疾病，但身体仍然虚弱，随时会被病毒攻击。)”可知我们的身体虽然没有生病，但也很虚弱，随时会生病，根据空后“This does not definitely mean that we are not healthy.(这并不一定意味着我们不健康。)”可知生病并不一定表明我们是不健康的。空处承上启下，所以空处应该举例说明我们的身体在虚弱的情况下会生病这样一种状况，D项“For instance, we may have a tendency to catch a cold easily.(例如，我们可能很容易感冒。)”举例说明我们的身体会在虚弱的情况下生病，承接上文，引出下文，而且空后的This指代D项的we may have a tendency to catch a cold easily这种情况，符合上下文语境。故选D项。 4．根据空前“It is important for everyone to devote some time to health and fitness.(对每个人来说，花些时间在健康和健身方面是很重要的。)”可知我们应该花时间去健身，根据空后“For instance, we must exercise daily regardless of our age and working style.(例如，我们必须每天锻炼，不管我们的年龄和工作方式。)”可知我们应该每天坚持锻炼，空处承上启下，所以空处应该讲的是我们应该通过哪些活动来进行锻炼，F项“There are some activities which everyone should do in our life.(在我们的生活中有一些活动是每个人都应该做的。)”承接上文，引出下文，符合上下文语境。故选F项。 5．根据空前“We should have at least six to eight hours of sleep every day. It helps in improving our immune (免疫) system and protects us against diseases.(我们每天至少应该有6到8个小时的睡眠。它有助于改善我们的免疫系统，保护我们抵抗疾病。)”可知我们应该保障充足的睡眠，根据空后“This, in turn, gives us new goals of health and fitness.(这反过来又给了我们健康和健身的新目标。)”可知充足的睡眠会对我们的健康和健身目标很有好处，空处承上启下，所以空处应该继续讲充足的睡眠的好处，C项“It also helps in keeping us calm and relaxes our mind.(它也帮助我们保持冷静和放松我们的大脑。)”进一步讲了充足的睡眠对于我们的好处，承接上文，引出下文，符合上下文语境。故选C项。 （2021·北京·高考真题）Music has long been considered to be an enjoyable pastime for many people． 1 The mental health benefits from music can't be argued．Music could also be helping you with many other health problems behind the scenes． 2 However，for the same reason，music can be very beneficial if one is in pain．By distracting （分心） the mind from the pain，music，people say，can lower stress and anxiety levels．This，of course，can lead to less pain． Many people enjoy relaxing music in the evening prior to going to bed． 3 While the validity of the idea is still being assessed，the lowered stress can even be tied back to blood pressure．Similarly, according to researchers，listening to just 30 minutes of soft music every day may help with healthy blood sugar levels， through the lowering of stress and anxiety． When it comes to heart health，there is speculation （推测） that it's not the style of music， but rather the tempo that makes it so good for your heart health．In one European study，participants listened to music as the researchers monitored their heart rates and blood pressure． 4 On the other hand，when the music slowed，the participants' stress and anxiety levels became lower and the effects on heart rates appeared to follow suit． 5 But there is a whole range of other health issues that turning up the radio could be beneficial for，which is what makes music so valuable． A．This feeling can also result in many other health problems． B．Some experts say that music can be harmful if it is too loud． C．This idea is a little off-the-wall but still has scientific backing． D．They say it can play a big role in calming the brain enough to sleep． E．The implications of music on overall well-being are really impressive． F．It is also highly popular due to the individualized effects on stress and anxiety． G．Interestingly，the more cheerful the music was，the faster their heart rates were． 【答案】1．F 2．B 3．D 4．G 5．E 【分析】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲的是音乐对身体的好处。 1．空格后说“The mental health benefits from music can't be argued”（音乐对心理健康的益处是毋庸置疑的），F选项It is also highly popular due to the individualized effects on stress and anxiety中的stress and anxiety照应了mental health benefits，因此F选项切合题意，故选F。 2．空格后说“However，for the same reason，music can be very beneficial if one is in pain”（然而，出于同样的原因，当一个人处于痛苦中时，音乐是非常有益的），However表转折，因此空格处为对音乐的负面评价，B选项Some experts say that music can be harmful if it is too loud中的harmful就是负面评价，因此B选项切合题意，故选B。 3．空格前说“Many people enjoy relaxing music in the evening prior to going to bed”（许多人喜欢在晚上睡觉前听些轻松的音乐），D选项They say it can play a big role in calming the brain enough to sleep中的sleep和going to bed相呼应，因此D选项切合题意，故选D。 4．空格前说“In one European study，participants listened to music as the researchers monitored their heart rates and blood pressure”（在欧洲的一项研究中，参与者听音乐，研究人员监测他们的心率和血压），G选项Interestingly，the more cheerful the music was，the faster their heart rates were中的heart rates和前面的heart rates相照应，因此G选项切合题意，故选G。 5．空格后说“But there is a whole range of other health issues that turning up the radio could be beneficial for，which is what makes music so valuable”（但是，开着收音机还可以对一系列其他的健康问题有益，这就是音乐如此有价值的原因），因此本段讲的是音乐对身体总的好处，E选项The implications of music on overall well-being are really impressive讲的是音乐对整体健康的影响是非常令人印象深刻的，因此E选项切合题意，故选E。 （2020·北京·高考真题）Many people think that positive thinking is mostly about keeping one's head in the sand and ignoring daily problems, trying to look optimistic. In reality it has more to do with the way an individual talks to himself. Self-talk is a constant stream of thoughts of a person, who is often unaware and uncertain of some events, phenomena, people, or even the person himself. 1 Meanwhile, positive thinking can help to stop negative self-talks and start to form a positive view on an issue. People who regularly practise positive thinking tend to solve problems more effectively. They are less exposed to stress caused by external factors. They tend to believe in themselves and in what they do. 2 People who think positively demonstrate increased life spans, lower rates of depression and anxiety, better physical and psychological health, reduced risks of death from heart problems. Positive thinking also contributes to one's ability to deal with problems and hardships. 3 For example, researchers have found that in the case of a crisis accompanied by strong emotions, such as a natural disaster, positive thinking can provide a sort of buffer against depression and anxiety. Resilient people who think positively tend to treat every problem as a challenge, a chance for improvement of any kind, or as an opportunity for personal growth. Pessimists, on the contrary, tend to perceive problems as a source of additional stress. 4 In conclusion, positive thinking is a powerful and effective tool for dealing with hard times and improving the quality of one's life. It doesn't have anything to do with ignorant optimism when an individual refuses to notice a problem. 5 Thinking in a positive, self-encouraging way brings about many benefits to one's physical and mental health. A．It doesn't cause any severe emotional discomfort, either. B．Negative self-talk damages self-confidence and decreases self-respect. C．It helps one to remain clear-headed and confident in difficult situations. D．Positive thinking has several beneficial effects on the body and the mind. E．As thinking changes, an individual's behaviour and habits change as well. F．They often offer a real alternative to the common and regular way of thinking. G．They often feel discouraged long before trying to solve the problem, even if small. 【答案】1．B 2．D 3．C 4．G 5．A 【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了积极思考对人产生的各种益处，同时将积极思考者与悲观主义者相比较，分析两种人的差异。积极思维是应对困难时期和提高个人生活质量的强大而有效的工具。 1．根据上文“Self-talk is a constant stream of thoughts of a person, who is often unaware and uncertain of some events, phenomena, people, or even the person himself.(自我对话是一个人持续不断的想法，他常常对一些事件、现象、人，甚至是他自己都没有意识和不确定)”以及后文“Meanwhile, positive thinking can help to stop negative self-talks and start to form a positive view on an issue.(同时，积极的思考可以帮助停止消极的自我对话，开始形成对一个问题的积极的观点)”由此可知，上文对自我对话进行了定义，后文则提到了积极的思考可以有助于停止消极的自我对话，可知本句是在说明消极的自我对话对人的不良影响。后文中negative self-talks可对应到B选项中Negative self-talk。故B选项“消极的自言自语会损害自信，降低自尊”符合语境，故选B。 2．根据后文“People who think positively demonstrate increased life spans, lower rates of depression and anxiety, better physical and psychological health, reduced risks of death from heart problems. Positive thinking also contributes to one's ability to deal with problems and hardships.(积极思考的人寿命更长，抑郁和焦虑率更低，身心更健康，死于心脏问题的风险更低。积极的思考也有助于一个人处理问题和困难的能力)”由此可知，后文提到了积极思考对人的益处，后文中People who think positively以及Positive thinking可对应到D选项中Positive thinking。故D选项“积极思考对身心有几个有益的影响”符合语境，故选D。 3．根据后文“For example, researchers have found that in the case of a crisis accompanied by strong emotions, such as a natural disaster, positive thinking can provide a sort of buffer against depression and anxiety.(例如，研究人员发现，当危机伴随着强烈的情绪时，比如自然灾害，积极的思考可以为抑郁和焦虑提供一种缓冲)”可知，后文举出的例子说明了积极思考可以让一个人在面临危机时，保持冷静。故C选项“它帮助一个人在困难的情况下保持头脑清醒和自信”符合语境，故选C。 4．根据上文“Resilient people who think positively tend to treat every problem as a challenge, a chance for improvement of any kind, or as an opportunity for personal growth. Pessimists, on the contrary, tend to perceive problems as a source of additional stress.(积极思考的、有韧性的人倾向于把每一个问题都看作是一个挑战，一个改进的机会，或者一个个人成长的机会。相反，悲观主义者倾向于将问题视为额外压力的来源)可知，上文在将积极思考者与悲观主义者相比较，本句应承接上文，进一步解释说明悲观主义者在解决问题时一些性格特点。上文Pessimists可对应到G选项中They。故G选项“他们常常在试图解决问题之前就感到气馁，即使是很小的问题”符合语境，故选G。 5．根据上文“In conclusion, positive thinking is a powerful and effective tool for dealing with hard times and improving the quality of one's life. It doesn't have anything to do with ignorant optimism when an individual refuses to notice a problem. (总之，积极思考是应对困难时期和提高个人生活质量的强大而有效的工具。当一个人拒绝注意到一个问题时，它与无知的乐观主义没有任何关系)”可知，本句承接上文进一步说明一个人拒绝注意到问题的影响，它与无知的乐观主义没有任何关系，也不会引起任何严重的情绪不适。故A选项“它也不会引起任何严重的情绪不适”符合语境，故选A。 （2026·北京丰台·二模）You’re in the middle of the afternoon, eyelids heavy, focus slipping. You close your eyes for half an hour and wake up feeling recharged. But later that night, you’re tossing and turning in bed, wondering why you can’t drift off. 1 Napping has long been praised as a tool for boosting alertness, enhancing mood, strengthening memory, and improving productivity. Yet for some, they can sabotage nighttime sleep. Napping is a double-edged sword. Done right, it is a powerful way to recharge. Done wrong, it can leave you struggling to fall asleep later. 2 Most people experience a natural dip in alertness in the early afternoon, typically between 1 p.m. and 4 p.m. Our internal body clock creates cycles of wakefulness and tiredness throughout the day. The early afternoon lull is part of this cycle, which is why so many people feel drowsy at that time. Studies suggest that a short nap allows the brain to rest without slipping into deep sleep. But there’s a catch. 3 This is due to “sleep inertia” — the grogginess (昏沉) and disorientation that comes from waking up during deeper sleep stages. Once a nap extends beyond 30 minutes, the brain transitions into slow-wave sleep, making it much harder to wake up. For certain groups, napping is essential. 4 A well-timed nap before a night duty can boost their alertness and reduce the risk of errors and accidents. Similarly, people who regularly struggle to get enough sleep at night — whether due to work, parenting, or other demands — may benefit from naps to bank extra hours of sleep that compensate for their sleep loss. 5 Age, lifestyle, and underlying sleep patterns all influence whether naps help or hinder. A good nap is all about strategy — knowing when, how, and if one should nap at all. A．Despite the benefits, napping isn’t for everyone. B．Waking from deep sleep leaves you feeling tired for up to an hour. C．Napping too long may result in waking up feeling worse than before. D．Relying on naps instead of improving nighttime sleep is a short-term fix. E．That midday nap which felt so refreshing at the time might be the reason. F．Shift workers often struggle with broken sleep due to irregular schedules. G．The key lies in understanding how the body regulates sleep and wakefulness. 【答案】1．E 2．G 3．C 4．F 5．A 【导语】文章主要讲述了午睡的好处、坏处以及如何有效地进行午睡。 1．上文“But later that night, you’re tossing and turning in bed, wondering why you can’t drift off.(但就在当晚，你躺在床上辗转反侧，心里琢磨着自己为何无法安然入睡)”描述了晚上睡不着的情景，E项“那次午间小睡当时感觉十分令人神清气爽，这或许就是原因所在”和前文为顺接关系，并引出下文对午睡相关内容的阐述，符合语境，其中“midday nap”和前文描述的情景相呼应，指出中午的小睡可能是晚上睡不着的原因。 2．上文“Napping has long been praised as a tool for boosting alertness, enhancing mood, strengthening memory, and improving productivity. Yet for some, they can sabotage nighttime sleep. Napping is a double-edged sword. Done right, it is a powerful way to recharge. Done wrong, it can leave you struggling to fall asleep later.(午睡长期以来一直被赞誉为一种能提高警觉性、改善情绪、增强记忆力以及提升工作效率的良方。然而对某些人而言，午睡可能会干扰夜间睡眠。午睡是一把双刃剑。如果做得恰当，它能成为一种强大的恢复精力的方式。但如果做得不当，可能会导致你之后难以入睡)”指出午睡有利有弊，G项“关键在于了解身体是如何调节睡眠和清醒的”承接上文，指出如何发挥午睡的好处，避免其坏处，其中“key”和前文相呼应，指出了解身体如何调节睡眠和清醒是关键。 3．根据上文“Most people experience a natural dip in alertness in the early afternoon, typically between 1 p.m. and 4 p.m. Our internal body clock creates cycles of wakefulness and tiredness throughout the day. The early afternoon lull is part of this cycle, which is why so many people feel drowsy at that time. Studies suggest that a short nap allows the brain to rest without slipping into deep sleep. But there’s a catch.(大多数人在下午早些时候会自然地感到精神不振，通常是在下午1点到4点之间。我们的体内生物钟会控制着一天中的清醒与疲倦的周期变化。下午早些时候的困倦状态就是这个周期的一部分，这就是为什么很多人在这个时候会感到昏昏欲睡的原因。研究表明，短暂的小睡能让大脑得到休息，同时又不会进入深度睡眠状态。但也有一个需要注意的地方)”以及后文“This is due to “sleep inertia”—the grogginess (昏沉) and disorientation that comes from waking up during deeper sleep stages. Once a nap extends beyond 30 minutes, the brain transitions into slow-wave sleep, making it much harder to wake up.(这是由于“睡眠惯性”所致——即在深度睡眠阶段醒来时所出现的昏昏沉沉和方向迷失的感觉。一旦小睡时间超过30分钟，大脑就会进入慢波睡眠状态，从而使得醒来变得更加困难)”可知，第三段提到短睡有益但存在缺陷，C选项“睡眠时间过长可能会导致醒来时感觉比之前更糟糕”说明小睡过久的负面影响，引出下文对该现象的原因（睡眠惯性）的解释，符合语境。 4．根据上文“For certain groups, napping is essential.(对于某些人群而言，小睡是必不可少的)”以及后文“A well-timed nap before a night duty can boost their alertness and reduce the risk of errors and accidents. Similarly, people who regularly struggle to get enough sleep at night — whether due to work, parenting, or other demands — may benefit from naps to bank extra hours of sleep that compensate for their sleep loss.(在夜间值班前适时小睡一会儿，能够提高警觉性，降低出错和发生事故的风险。同样，那些经常因工作、育儿或其他原因而难以获得充足睡眠的人，通过小睡可以获得额外的睡眠时间，从而弥补睡眠不足的情况)”可知，第四段点明部分特定人群需要小睡，后文举例夜班工作者小睡的好处，F选项“轮班工作者常常因不规律的工作时间而遭遇睡眠中断的问题”介绍倒班工作者的睡眠问题，正好对应下文的例子，逻辑通顺。 5．根据后文“Age, lifestyle, and underlying sleep patterns all influence whether naps help or hinder. A good nap is all about strategy — knowing when, how, and if one should nap at all.(年龄、生活方式以及个人的睡眠习惯都会影响午睡的效果是好是坏。一个有效的午睡其实讲究的是策略——要知道何时、如何以及是否应该午睡)”可知，后文提到年龄、生活方式等因素会影响小睡的作用，A选项“尽管午睡有诸多好处，但并非所有人都适合午睡”指出小睡虽有好处但并不适合所有人，引出下文，符合逻辑。 （2026·北京大兴·三模）The Paradox of Choice: Why More Is Less People often assume that the more choices they have, the happier and more satisfied they will be. In modern society, we are surrounded by an endless number of decisions, from small daily choices such as food and clothes to important life decisions such as education and careers. 1 However, psychologist Barry Schwartz introduced the idea of “the paradox of choice,” which suggests that too many choices can actually lead to stress, anxiety, and dissatisfaction. 2 They may worry about making the wrong choice or missing out on better opportunities. This mental pressure is known as “choice overload”. 3 Even when people choose something they like, they may continue to wonder whether another option would have been better. This feeling of doubt prevents them from fully enjoying their choice and often leads to regret. Furthermore, too many choices can make people set unreasonably high standards. 4 In contrast, having fewer choices allows people to make decisions more easily and feel more confident about their final choice. To avoid the negative effects of too many choices, experts suggest limiting options and focusing on personal needs rather than searching for perfection. 5 Understanding the paradox of choice helps people make calmer, clearer, and happier decisions in daily life. A．They begin to expect perfect results, and when reality falls short, they feel disappointed. B．Making wise decisions is essential for a happy and fulfilling life. C．By accepting that “good enough” is often sufficient, people can reduce stress and feel more satisfied with their decisions. D．Many people believe that having more options increases freedom and improves the quality of decisions. E．People tend to spend too much time comparing different choices. F．Too many choices also reduce satisfaction after a decision is made. G．When people are faced with too many options, they often struggle to make a decision. 【答案】1．D 2．G 3．F 4．A 5．C 【导语】文章主要介绍了选择悖论：人们通常认为选择越多越幸福，但过多选择反而会带来压力、焦虑、不满与后悔，还会让人设定过高期待，文末也给出了应对过多选择负面影响的建议。 1．根据前文“People often assume that the more choices they have, the happier and more satisfied they will be. In modern society, we are surrounded by an endless number of decisions, from small daily choices such as food and clothes to important life decisions such as education and careers.(人们通常认为选择越多，就会越快乐、越满足。在现代社会，我们面临着数不胜数的抉择，从饮食、穿搭这类日常小事到教育、事业等人生大事皆是如此。)”及后文“However, psychologist Barry Schwartz introduced the idea of “the paradox of choice,” which suggests that too many choices can actually lead to stress, anxiety, and dissatisfaction.(然而，心理学家Barry Schwartz提出了“选择悖论”的概念，这个观点认为太多的选择实际上会导致压力、焦虑和不满。) ”可知，前文讲述了大众普遍觉得选择多多益善的观点；结合下文转折内容，空处应延续这一主流看法。选项D“Many people believe that having more options increases freedom and improves the quality of decisions.(很多人认为拥有更多选择能增加自由，也能提升决策质量)”承接上文观点，符合语境。 2．根据后文“They may worry about making the wrong choice or missing out on better opportunities. This mental pressure is known as “choice overload”.(他们会担心做出错误选择，或是错失更好的机会，这种心理压力被称为“选择超载”。)”可知，后文讲述了选择过多带来的心理困扰。空处应引出人们面对众多选择时的困境，选项G“When people are faced with too many options, they often struggle to make a decision.(当人们面对太多选择时，往往难以做出决定)”衔接后文内容，逻辑通顺。 3．根据后文“Even when people choose something they like, they may continue to wonder whether another option would have been better. This feeling of doubt prevents them from fully enjoying their choice and often leads to regret.(即便人们选到了心仪的选项，他们仍继续会暗自琢磨另一个选择会不会更好。这种疑虑会让人无法充分享受自己的选择，还常常心生懊悔。)”可知，本段围绕做出选择之后的负面感受展开。选项F“Too many choices also reduce satisfaction after a decision is made.(过多的选择也会降低人们做出决定后的满足感)”总领本段内容，契合语境。 4．根据前文“Furthermore, too many choices can make people set unreasonably high standards.(此外，过多的选择会让人们设立不切实际的高标准。)”可知，前文提到人们会定下过高标准，空处需要承接这一内容，说明高标准带来的结果。选项A“They begin to expect perfect results, and when reality falls short, they feel disappointed.(他们开始期待完美的结果，当现实不尽如人意时，就会感到失望)”承接前文，逻辑连贯。 5．根据前文“To avoid the negative effects of too many choices, experts suggest limiting options and focusing on personal needs rather than searching for perfection.(为了规避过多选择带来的负面影响，专家建议减少选项、关注自身需求，而非一味追求完美。)”以及后文“Understanding the paradox of choice helps people make calmer, clearer, and happier decisions in daily life.(理解选择悖论，能帮助人们在日常生活中做出更从容、清晰且幸福的抉择。)”可知，空前说明专家提出关注自身需求，不要一味追求完美的建议，空后说明理解选择悖论的益处，空处应具体说明不追求完美的做法和好处。选项C“By accepting that “good enough” is often sufficient, people can reduce stress and feel more satisfied with their decisions.(接受“知足常乐”的心态，人们就能减轻压力，对自己的选择更加满意)”衔接上下文，符合文意。 （2026·北京海淀·三模）We’ve all been there — one minute, we’re checking the news for an update, and the next, we’re waist-deep in a flood of negative news. This compulsive need to scroll through bad news or information, known as doomscrolling, has recently become an all-too-common habit. 1 Psychologists have been studying how this behavior affects our cognitive functions, emotional well-being, and even our ability to focus on the things that matter in our daily lives. The result? Doomscrolling isn’t just a means to pass the time — it’s actively harming our mental health. 2 Instead of making us feel prepared and informed, consuming bad news nonstop actually makes us feel more helpless. For people who already struggle with anxiety or depression, doomscrolling can become a maladaptive coping mechanism — a way to seek control over uncontrollable situations. 3 Beyond the obvious stress and anxiety, doomscrolling messes with how we think. It wreaks havoc on our attention span. The brain starts craving constant stimulation, making it harder to focus on tasks that aren’t delivering the same emotional hit. 4 Doomscrolling overloads our brain. Constant exposure to distressing content fills up our working memory, leaving little room for productive thinking or problem-solving. So, how can we break free from the doomscrolling trap? Altogether, avoiding all bad news isn’t the answer. A wiser choice is to develop healthier digital habits. We can begin by scheduling a specific time to check the news. Meanwhile, focus on what we consume: follow reputable sources and mute accounts that thrive on outrage and fear. For every negative story, seek something uplifting or informative to balance the content. 5 Donate, discuss the topic with a trusted friend, or volunteer for a cause. A．It is not surprising that anxiety is on the rise. B．Unfortunately, instead of helping, it feeds the stress cycle. C．We can reclaim our focus, mental health, and peace of mind. D．No wonder reading a book feels harder than scrolling social media. E．If a news story indeed upsets us, we can look for real-world ways to contribute. F．Studies show that doomscrollers reported higher levels of anxiety and depression. G．While staying informed matters, constant exposure to negativity does us no favors. 【答案】1．G 2．F 3．B 4．D 5．E 【导语】文章主要说明了沉迷刷负面新闻已成普遍习惯，该行为损害心理健康、加剧焦虑，还会削弱专注力与思维能力。无需彻底隔绝资讯，可规划浏览时间、筛选信息，也能以实际行动消解负面情绪。 1．根据上文“We’ve all been there — one minute, we’re checking the news for an update, and the next, we’re waist-deep in a flood of negative news. This compulsive need to scroll through bad news or information, known as doomscrolling, has recently become an all-too-common habit.(我们每个人都有这样的经历——前一分钟我们还在查看新闻以获取最新信息，下一分钟就发现自己被大量负面消息或信息淹没了。这种不断浏览负面消息或信息的冲动行为，即所谓的“阴暗刷屏”，近来已成为一种极为常见的习惯)”可知，第一段引出沉迷刷负面新闻这一常见现象，G选项“虽然获取信息很重要，但持续接触负面信息对我们毫无益处”承接上文，引出下文对危害的讨论，符合逻辑。 2．根据上文“Psychologists have been studying how this behavior affects our cognitive functions, emotional well-being, and even our ability to focus on the things that matter in our daily lives. The result? Doomscrolling isn’t just a means to pass the time — it’s actively harming our mental health.(心理学家一直在研究这种行为对我们认知功能、情绪状态以及我们日常生活中专注力的培养所产生的影响。结果表明？“深度浏览负面内容”不仅仅是一种打发时间的方式——它实际上正在严重损害我们的心理健康)”可知，选项承接上文说明具体危害，F选项“研究表明，沉迷刷负面新闻的人焦虑和抑郁水平更高”符合语境。 3．根据上文“Instead of making us feel prepared and informed, consuming bad news nonstop actually makes us feel more helpless. For people who already struggle with anxiety or depression, doomscrolling can become a maladaptive coping mechanism — a way to seek control over uncontrollable situations.(不断地接收负面消息并不会让我们感到有所准备和知晓情况，反而会让我们感到更加无助。对于那些本身就患有焦虑症或抑郁症的人来说，“灾难浏览”可能会成为一种不健康的应对方式——一种试图掌控无法掌控局面的手段)”可知，前文提到焦虑抑郁人群会把刷负面新闻当作应对不可控情况的方式，B选项“不幸的是，它不仅没有帮助，反而会加剧压力循环”顺承前文，点出这种应对方式的反效果，符合语境。 4．根据上文“Beyond the obvious stress and anxiety, doomscrolling messes with how we think. It wreaks havoc on our attention span. The brain starts craving constant stimulation, making it harder to focus on tasks that aren’t delivering the same emotional hit.(除了明显的压力和焦虑之外，这种“阴暗刷屏”还会扰乱我们的思维。它会严重破坏我们的注意力持续时间。大脑开始渴望持续的刺激，从而使得我们更难专注于那些无法带来同样情感冲击的任务)”可知，前文提到沉迷刷负面会破坏注意力，让大脑很难专注没有强情绪刺激的任务，D选项“难怪读书比刷社交媒体更难”是对上文观点的举例说明，衔接自然。 5．根据上文“So, how can we break free from the doomscrolling trap? Altogether, avoiding all bad news isn’t the answer. A wiser choice is to develop healthier digital habits. We can begin by scheduling a specific time to check the news. Meanwhile, focus on what we consume: follow reputable sources and mute accounts that thrive on outrage and fear. For every negative story, seek something uplifting or informative to balance the content.(那么，我们该如何摆脱这种“阴暗刷屏”的困扰呢？总之，完全避免接触所有负面消息并不是解决之道。更明智的选择是培养更健康的数字使用习惯。我们可以先设定一个特定的时间来查看新闻。同时，要注重我们所获取的信息来源：关注可靠的媒体，屏蔽那些一味煽动愤怒和恐惧的账号。对于每一个负面新闻，都要寻找一些积极向上或具有教育意义的内容来平衡整体内容)”以及后文“Donate, discuss the topic with a trusted friend, or volunteer for a cause.(可以进行捐赠，与信任的朋友讨论这个话题，或者投身于某个公益事业中)”可知，前文介绍了摆脱灾难浏览的方法，后文提到捐款、讨论、做志愿等实际行动，E选项“如果新闻真的让我们困扰，我们可以在现实中寻找办法做点什么”引出后文的具体行动，符合语境。 （2026·北京昌平·二模）You’ve heard of coping ahead? It is often helpful to plan, think through possible problems, and determine ahead of time what will be useful for you in an anticipated difficult situation. What may be easier, more automatic, and far less helpful than coping ahead is “dreading ahead. Dreading ahead is when you continue to think about and worry about an upcoming event. 1 To be sure, this is different from planning and preparing. When you dread, you think about the upcoming event. You worry. You find it distracting. You may have physiological symptoms. What you don’t do is plan, prepare, and get on with your life. 2 In fact, it is easy to feel like you are putting a lot of effort into it without actually putting yourself in a better position. That is dreading ahead. That all probably makes sense but the challenge is changing that behavior. 3 As you are thinking about the future with that worried feeling, check in with yourself. Are you planning? Are you taking steps to make it better? Those are useful actions. Or are you worrying? Are you avoiding? Are you dwelling? 4 Self-acceptance is important. Allow that the thing coming up is not something to look forward to. And then notice when you are stuck in a place of dwelling. That place of dwelling can lead to feeling worse and set you up poorly for what you need to manage. Think about whether there is important planning and preparation to do. If not, focus on mindfulness. Come back to the present moment, rather than remaining in that place of dread. That is not an easy thing to do. Do not expect that it will be easy to shift from worrying and dreading to being in the present moment. 5 It is a set of skills worth developing and they can be developed. As you are doing that, remember: Don’t dread ahead! A．You might as well put yourself in the best possible position. B．You likely recognize that you have engaged in anticipatory dread. C．If you are doing the latter. recognize that it is OK to feel your feelings. D．First of all, you have to recognize that dreading ahead is what you are doing. E．So, much emotional energy goes into the concern with little productive happening. F．View this as a practice involving awareness, anxiety tolerance, and the ability to shift. G．It is when the time from now until what is expected is filled with concern and distraction. 【答案】1．G 2．E 3．D 4．C 5．F 【导语】文章主要介绍了提前焦虑的概念、危害，并给出了如何从过度担忧转向理性应对的具体方法。 1．由上文“Dreading ahead is when you continue to think about and worry about an upcoming event. (提前焦虑就是你不断思考和担忧即将发生的事)”可知，本空是对“提前焦虑”进一步解释。G选项“It is when the time from now until what is expected is filled with concern and distraction. (它是指从现在到预期事件之间的这段时间充满了忧虑和分心。)”是对前一句的同义展开，符合语境。 2．由上文“What you don’t do is plan, prepare, and get on with your life. (你所做的并不是规划、准备并继续生活)”以及下文“In fact, it is easy to feel like you are putting a lot of effort into it without actually putting yourself in a better position. (事实上，你很容易觉得自己付出了很多努力，却并没有让自己处于更好的状态)”可知，本空要说明这种担忧消耗情绪却没有成效。E选项“So, much emotional energy goes into the concern with little productive happening. (因此，大量情感精力投入到担忧中，却几乎没有产生有效结果)”承上启下，符合逻辑。 3．由上文“That all probably makes sense but the challenge is changing that behavior. (这些都说的通，但挑战在于改变这种行为)”以及下文“As you are thinking about the future with that worried feeling, check in with yourself. (当你带着焦虑思考未来时，审视一下自己)”可知，改变的第一步是先意识到自己在提前焦虑。D选项“First of all, you have to recognize that dreading ahead is what you are doing. (首先，你必须意识到你正在进行提前焦虑)”引出具体做法，符合语境。 4．由上文连续提问“Are you planning? Are you taking steps to make it better? Those are useful actions. Or are you worrying? Are you avoiding? Are you dwelling? (你是在做规划吗？你是在采取行动让事情变好吗？这些才是有用的做法。还是说，你只是在焦虑、在逃避、在内耗？)”以及下文“Self-acceptance is important. (自我接纳很重要)”可知，此处对应后一种情况。C选项“If you are doing the latter, recognize that it is OK to feel your feelings. (如果你属于后者，要承认你的感受是正常的)”符合语境，且“recognize that it is OK to feel your feelings”与下文self-acceptance高度呼应。 5．由上文“Do not expect that it will be easy to shift from worrying and dreading to being in the present moment. (不要指望能轻易从担忧焦虑转向活在当下)”以及下文“It is a set of skills worth developing and they can be developed. (这是一套值得培养的技能，并且是可以培养的)”可知，本空给出正确心态。F选项“View this as a practice involving awareness, anxiety tolerance, and the ability to shift. (把这看作一种需要觉察、接纳焦虑和转换能力的练习)”衔接自然，点明这是可训练的能力。 （2026·北京房山·二模）Your conduct in the interview should convey professionalism and assurance.

The scene summarizes the essence of intellectual questions. 1 They’re the kind of questions that make you frown, scratch your head, and maybe even lose a little sleep. 2 For instance, as AI systems become increasingly complex, we’re forced to deal with some pretty mind-bending questions, like “Will AI ever achieve true consciousness?” or “Could it one day surpass human intelligence?” Environmental sustainability presents another set of urgent scientific questions: “How can we balance economic growth with environmental protection? Could we engineer our way out of a climate disaster?” Similarly, space exploration has fascinated humans for centuries. 3 We may wonder: “Could we one day settle on other planets?” You might be wondering: “Why bother with all these heavy questions? Can’t we just enjoy a nice, light conversation about the weather?” Well, sure, we could. But where’s the fun in that? Asking intellectual questions isn’t just a way to sound smart at dinner parties. When we engage with intellectual questions, we’re developing critical thinking skills, enhancing our ability to analyze complex issues, and broadening our understanding of the world. 4 And the benefits go beyond personal development. Engaging in intellectual questions can promote understanding. When we struggle with difficult questions together, we learn to appreciate different viewpoints, to challenge our own assumptions, and to find common ground even in disagreement. 5 Didn’t many of the world’s greatest discoveries and inventions start with someone asking “What if?” or “Why not?” So next time you find yourself in a conversation, don’t be afraid to dig a little deeper, to ask the big questions, and to challenge assumptions. Your brain and the world will thank you for it. A．Intellectual questions arise accordingly. B．It’s like going to the gym, but for your brain. C．Intellectual questions are not just surface-level inquiries. D．Moreover, raising big questions drives innovation and progress. E．In a world full of challenges, they are more important than ever. F．As we explore further, the questions touch on the very fabric of our society. G．The questions that unlock deep insights and meaningful connections lie in every corner. 【答案】1．C 2．G 3．A 4．B 5．D 【导语】文章主要介绍了思辨性问题的本质特征，列举人工智能、环境发展、太空探索等领域的相关深度问题，阐述探讨思辨性问题对个人思维培养、人际包容理解以及社会创新发展的重要意义，并呼吁人们勇于提出深层次、有价值的问题。 1．根据前文“The scene summarizes the essence of intellectual questions.(这一场景概括了思辨性问题的本质。)”以及空后一句 “They’re the kind of questions that make you frown, scratch your head, and maybe even lose a little sleep.(这类问题会让你皱眉、苦思冥想，甚至夜不能寐。)” 可知空前总结思辨性问题的本质，空后描述这类问题引人深思、并不浅显；故推知：空处应点明思辨性问题并非表层浅显的问题，承接上下文语义；选项C“Intellectual questions are not just surface-level inquiries.(思辨性问题不只是流于表面的疑问。)” 符合原文内容。 2．根据后文“For instance, as AI systems become increasingly complex, we’re forced to deal with some pretty mind-bending questions, like “Will AI ever achieve true consciousness?” or “Could it one day surpass human intelligence?” Environmental sustainability presents another set of urgent scientific questions: “How can we balance economic growth with environmental protection? Could we engineer our way out of a climate disaster?”(例如，随着人工智能系统变得愈发复杂，我们不得不面对一些十分烧脑的问题，比如“人工智能能否真正产生意识？”或是“未来它是否会超越人类智力？”环境可持续发展也引出了另一系列亟待解答的科学问题：“我们该如何平衡经济发展与环境保护？我们能否依靠科技手段化解气候灾难？”)”可知后文举例多个领域都存在深度思辨问题；故推知：空处作为段落总起句，应引出富有深度、有价值的思辨问题遍布各个领域，统领下文举例内容；选项G“The questions that unlock deep insights and meaningful connections lie in every corner.(能够启发深刻见解、建立深层关联的问题存在于各个角落。)”符合原文内容。 3．根据前文“Similarly, space exploration has fascinated humans for centuries.(同样，几个世纪以来太空探索一直吸引着人类。)”以及空后一句 “We may wonder: “Could we one day settle on other planets?”(我们或许会疑惑：未来我们能否在其他星球定居？)” 可知前文承接 AI、环保话题转到太空探索，空后引出太空相关的思辨疑问；故推知：空处应表示伴随太空探索这一话题，相应的思辨问题也随之产生，起到承上启下作用；选项A“Intellectual questions arise accordingly.(相应地，思辨性问题随之产生。)” 符合原文内容。 4．根据前文“When we engage with intellectual questions, we’re developing critical thinking skills, enhancing our ability to analyze complex issues, and broadening our understanding of the world.(当我们探究思辨性问题时，我们正在培养批判性思维能力，提升分析复杂问题的能力，并拓宽对世界的认知。)” 及空后一句“And the benefits go beyond personal development.(这些益处远不止个人成长层面。)”可知空前讲述思考思辨性问题对个人思维与认知的提升作用，后文提及其他方面的益处；故推知：空处会总结思考思辨性问题对个人思维与认知的益处，衔接前文；选项B“It’s like going to the gym, but for your brain.(这就像是给大脑健身。)” 符合原文内容。 5．根据前文“When we struggle with difficult questions together, we learn to appreciate different viewpoints, to challenge our own assumptions, and to find common ground even in disagreement.(当我们一同钻研难题时，我们学会欣赏不同观点，质疑自身固有想法，即便存在分歧也能找到共识。)”以及空后一句“Didn’t many of the world’s greatest discoveries and inventions start with someone asking “What if?” or “Why not?”?(世界上许多伟大的发现和发明，不都是始于有人提出 “假如会怎样？”“为何不试试？” 这类问题吗？)”可知，空前讲述思辨问题促进人与人之间的理解包容，空后关联到人类发明创造；故推知：空处递进说明提出深刻问题能推动创新与社会进步，衔接前后逻辑；选项D“Moreover, raising big questions drives innovation and progress.(此外，提出重大问题能推动创新与进步。)”符合原文内容。 （2026·北京西城·一模）Cut your sugar, get some exercise, eat your vegetables, sleep well. Every day, we are surrounded by information about how to live longer, healthier, happier lives. 1 It is to engage in the arts. Over the past few decades, evidence has been increasing to suggest that being more creative works wonders for our health. 2 And the results are astonishing, from music in surgery reducing the amount of painkillers and anti-anxiety medicines needed, to dance programs helping people with Parkinson’s disease to walk. But the arts aren’t just there for us when we are sick. As a public health scientist. I spend my days looking at data from studies — massive datasets that contain thousands of individuals who have completed questionnaires, had nurse interviews, donated blood samples and undergone brain imaging every few years of their lives. 3 Using complex statistical methods, we can look at the long-term relationship between everyday arts engagement and dozens of health outcomes. The results are remarkable. Children who engage more with the arts have a reduced risk of developing problems like depression later in life. Adults who participate more frequently in the arts and visit cultural venues are happier and feel more satisfied with their lives over the years and decades that follow 4 Kindergarteners who engage in music activities have increased prosocial skills as they head into primary school. Teenagers who are involved in bands, dance and editing school newspapers are less likely to get involved in antisocial behaviors or crime. I want to be clear: I am not suggesting the arts can solve all problems. 5 But the evidence remains that engaging regularly in creative activities that you enjoy is an investment in your health that is worth making. A．The benefits aren’t just psychological either. B．Regular arts engagement goes beyond boosting physical health. C．But there is one piece of advice I bet you have never been given. D．Many of these studies contain buried questions on arts engagement. E．Arts can be inaccessible to people because of cost and other reasons. F．Crafts, singing, theatre and writing are good for us as part of our daily lives. G．Programs being developed around the world are starting to integrate the arts into healthcare. 【答案】1．C 2．G 3．D 4．A 5．E 【导语】本文主要介绍了参与艺术活动对健康的益处，并通过科学研究数据支持了这一观点，说明将艺术融入日常生活是一种值得的健康投资。 1．根据上文“Cut your sugar, get some exercise, eat your vegetables, sleep well. Every day, we are surrounded by information about how to live longer, healthier, happier lives. (少吃糖、多运动、吃蔬菜、睡好觉。每天，我们都被如何活得更长久、更健康、更幸福的信息所包围。)”可知，这是在列举常见的生活建议。再结合下文“It is to engage in the arts. (那就是参与艺术活动。)” 可知，下文“It”指代一种建议，因此空处应引出一种与众不同的建议，与上文的常见建议形成对比。C选项“But there is one piece of advice I bet you have never been given. (但我打赌有一条建议你从未得到过。)” 以“But”转折，引出下文不常见的建议“参与艺术活动”，其中“one piece of advice”与下文的“It”指代一致，符合语境。 2．根据下文“And the results are astonishing, from music in surgery reducing the amount of painkillers and anti-anxiety medicines needed, to dance programs helping people with Parkinson’s disease to walk.(结果令人惊讶，从手术中的音乐减少了所需的止痛药和抗焦虑药物的数量，到舞蹈项目帮助帕金森病患者行走。)”可知，此处提到了艺术在医疗方面的应用，G选项“Programs being developed around the world are starting to integrate the arts into healthcare.(世界各地正在开发的项目开始将艺术融入医疗保健。)”引出了下文的医疗应用实例“music in surgery”和“dance programs”，符合语境。 3．根据上文“As a public health scientist. I spend my days looking at data from studies — massive datasets that contain thousands of individuals who have completed questionnaires, had nurse interviews, donated blood samples and undergone brain imaging every few years of their lives. (作为一名公共卫生科学家，我每天研究来自大量研究的数据集，其中包含数千名个体，他们每隔几年完成问卷、接受护士访谈、捐献血液样本并进行脑成像。)” 可知，这些研究数据集内容广泛。再根据下文“Using complex statistical methods, we can look at the long-term relationship between everyday arts engagement and dozens of health outcomes.(使用复杂的统计方法，我们可以研究日常艺术参与与数十种健康结果之间的长期关系。)”可知， 此处开始讨论“arts engagement”与健康的关系，因此空处应能建立起“庞大研究数据”与“艺术参与”之间的联系。D选项“Many of these studies contain buried questions on arts engagement.( 其中许多研究都包含了关于艺术参与的隐含问题。)”完美地起到了这个桥梁作用，说明这些庞大的数据集中也包含了关于艺术参与的信息，从而使得下文研究两者的长期关系成为可能，符合语境。 4．根据下文“Kindergarteners who engage in music activities have increased prosocial skills as they head into primary school. Teenagers who are involved in bands, dance and editing school newspapers are less likely to get involved in antisocial behaviors or crime.(参与音乐活动的幼儿园儿童在进入小学时亲社会技能有所提高。参与乐队、舞蹈和编辑校报的青少年不太可能参与反社会行为或犯罪。)”可知，此处提到了艺术参与对儿童心理和行为方面的益处，A选项“The benefits aren’t just psychological either.(这些益处不仅仅是心理上的。)”中的“psychological”总结上文（抑郁、幸福感、生活满意度），并用“aren’t just”自然引出下文的社会行为益处（亲社会技能、减少反社会行为），起到了承上启下作用。 5．根据上文“I want to be clear: I am not suggesting the arts can solve all problems. (我想澄清一点：我并不是说艺术能解决所有问题。)”可知，作者在客观地指出艺术的局限性。下文提到“But the evidence remains that engaging regularly in creative activities that you enjoy is an investment in your health that is worth making. (但证据仍然表明，定期参与你喜欢的创造性活动是对你健康的投资，是值得的。)”定期参加创造性活动有益处，这是一个转折，重申了艺术对健康的积极价值。因此，空处的内容应既能体现艺术的某种局限性（与上文“不能解决所有问题”呼应），又不能完全否定其价值，从而为下文的转折“But...”做铺垫。E选项“Arts can be inaccessible to people because of cost and other reasons. (艺术可能因为成本和其他原因而让一些人难以接触。) 指出了艺术的一个现实局限（可及性问题），这与“不能解决所有问题”的逻辑一致，同时为下文“但……值得投资”的转折提供了合理的过渡，符合语境。 （2026·北京通州·一模）Classic literature holds timeless wisdom and fascinating stories. Yet for many students, reading classics can feel challenging or even boring at first. 1 Don’t worry! Here are some practical ways to get started. Pick the right book. We all have our own preferences when it comes to modern novels, so the same should apply to classic works. Think about the genres you enjoy most — romance, adventure, mystery or historical fiction — and begin with a story that matches your interests. Consider listening to an audiobook. Hearing a story read aloud can bring it to life in a new way. 2 A skilled narrator can help you understand the emotions of the characters and the atmosphere of the time. This method is especially helpful if you find the language difficult at first. Slow down your reading pace. Unlike many modern books, classic novels often require patience. Some were first published in parts, which meant readers had time to reflect between chapters. Instead of rushing to finish, take time to think about the themes and ideas. 3 Do some background research when necessary. One difficulty in reading classics is the gap between the author’s time and our own. 4 You may also keep a small list of unfamiliar words or note down characters to avoid confusion. Such preparation can make the story clearer and more rewarding. 5 Once you adjust your expectations and reading habits, you may discover that these works are not distant relics of the past, but living voices that still speak to us today. A．Reading classic literature is not a race but a journey. B．You should read aloud at least one novel every month. C．You may want to try them but feel unsure where to begin. D．This allows you to notice details that you might otherwise miss. E．In fact, many classic works were originally meant to be shared aloud. F．Looking up historical events in the story can deepen your understanding. G．Choosing a book you are naturally curious about will make the process easier. 【答案】1．C 2．E 3．D 4．F 5．A 【导语】文章主要介绍了阅读经典文学作品的实用方法，包括选对书籍、听有声书、放慢阅读速度、做背景研究等，帮助读者轻松走进经典、感受经典的魅力。 1．本题在第一段段中。由上文“Yet for many students, reading classics can feel challenging or even boring at first.(然而对许多学生来说，起初阅读经典会感觉有难度甚至枯燥)”以及下文“Don’t worry!

Helping strangers can leave you with a deep sense of satisfaction, but you’ve likely also felt the stress of showing up for others when you’re already stretched thin. These ordinary moments speak to a philosophical puzzle: Are moral people happier? 1 Others might reason that moral behavior often requires self-sacrifice. 2 Past studies clearly show that people feel good when they perform acts of kindness for others. But researchers had not directly examined if moral character, broadly speaking, is linked to well-being. So my team conducted a set of studies to take this challenge seriously. In one of our studies, undergraduate students reported on their own well-being, rating their happiness as well as their sense of how meaningful their life is. 3 Then these close others, such as friends and family members, rated the participant’s moral character using our questionnaire (调查问卷), which asked how much that person had the various characteristics identified as most morally relevant. 4 Doing the right thing isn’t always easy. 5 But our findings indicate that, in general, there’s no trade-off between morality and well-being. Instead, people with stronger moral character tend to experience greater meaning in life and happiness. This suggests that moments of moral effort may be part of a life that, taken as a whole, feels more satisfying. A．Until recently, scientific evidence had been limited to one aspect of morality: kindness. B．Despite various debates, there’s no agreement on what it means to be morally good. C．Standing up for someone who is being treated unfairly can feel uncomfortable. D．Some might assume morality and happiness naturally go together. E．They also gave us contact information for people who know them. F．We found that those rated as more moral reported a stronger sense of well-being. G．This might be in part because of the difficulties of defining and measuring kindness. （2025·北京·高考真题）What is adulthood? Societies all over the world view the concept of an adult as self-supporting and self-directed, because it identifies a point in the life cycle. As Alice Black points out, today’s parents’ fear of letting kids do more housework has added to their inability to feel competent and, thus, confident in themselves. Psychologist Robert Turner wrote about this in his book, The Life Cycle, mentioning a stage when kids learn self-direction and mastery. 1 But Turner’s other cycles are just as important. 2 If these life cycles are delayed, interrupted, or denied, you feel incapable of accessing your states of self, controlling unpleasant feelings, and manipulating (操控) the energy that puts together the fabric of your inner world. Turner wisely said that “doing well” psychologically is being able to roll with the flow of emotions, manage them, communicate clearly and well with others, and master various skills. This requires an internal locus (核心) of control, which implies self-control of your thoughts, feelings, and actions. 3 You’re self-directed and not reliant on the world to tell you who you are. And you know who you are within all this. So, being an adult isn’t just holding a job. Being an adult is about having a rooted sense of self while being capable of identifying and managing your emotions and actions. 4 We are a social species, so this is important. While raising an adult is a parent’s job, it’s also our responsibility as a society to ensure that we support schools that nurture (培养) emotional and identity development. 5 A．It’s also our job to support adults who need help repairing incomplete life cycles. B．They talk about someone’s inability to support themselves through work. C．It’s being able to show understanding when communicating with others. D．In other words, you’re playing the game of life — life isn’t playing you. E．They teach emotional awareness and management as well as identity. F．You feel like an 18-year old, especially when playing 80s music. G．When this stage is denied it creates a sense of insecurity. （2024·北京·高考真题）If you want to develop maximum credibility (可信性), is it better to be a hedgehog (刺猬) or a fox? According to Isaiah Berlin, the hedgehog knows one thing very well, and the fox knows a lot of things. Is there a clear advantage of one style over the other? Hedgehog thinkers tend to answer yes. 1 And they are usually very credible in doing so. According to Jim Hart, the “hedgehog concept” is one of the factors that lead companies to greatness. They focus on one thing and do it really well. They figure out what they are good at. 2 The hedgehog concept makes perfect sense for companies. 3 Philip Tate has studied the track records of those folks on the Sunday talk shows who make predictions about what will happen. He has found that hedgehogs are not only wrong more often than foxes, but that they are less likely to recognise or admit that they are wrong when events do not match their predictions. The advantage that foxes have is that they are more likely to seek out new information from a broader range of sources, and are comfortable with uncertainty and new information. 4 They try to include it in their viewpoint rather than to exclude it from their thinking. They also have a clearer estimation of what they know and don’t know. So, which is better? The question can be answered in a foxy hedgehog style. 5 The choice between being a hedgehog or a fox is a false trade-off. The most effective way to go through life is to try to be that rare mixture known as foxy hedgehog. A．In other words, there are clear advantages for each. B．They are more likely to remember people’s mistakes. C．Hence, they have the advantage of clarity and confidence. D．But there can be a downside to concentration on one big thing. E．However, hedgehogs remain open to others’ reactions and inputs. F．When something is contradictory to their view, they don’t treat it as exceptional. G．They come down squarely on one side or the other and fully support their position. （2023·北京·高考真题）It’s a joyful and stressful time of year in the United States for students and their families as they make decisions about where to attend college. Families often turn to rankings systems to help make a decision. 1 When I talk to families as a scholar of higher education, they’re often surprised that teaching excellence is not counted in rankings. 2 Emerging research suggests that courses in lower-ranked universities, on average, scored higher on teaching than courses in higher-ranked universities. 3 The absence of teaching excellence from the rankings is surprising given the link between high-quality teaching and student success. Quality teaching is one of the most important predictors of a wide range of college outcomes. Rankings, however, are only one reason why a low value is placed on teaching in higher education. Administrators often don’t view teaching excellence as a way to increase enrolment (注册) or funding. 4 Research shows that the more time instructors spend on teaching, the lower their salary. What is the result? Many instructors continue to teach using traditional lectures, which lead to lower success rates. 5 Nevertheless, not much will change until schools with high-quality teaching are rewarded with more resources, higher rankings and increased enrolments. In the long term, universities, organisations that rank schools, and others should work to make teaching a valued, core part of the mission. What should students and their families do? They should give strong consideration to universities where high-quality teaching is valued, even though the schools may be ranked lower. A．Higher education has achieved its true potential. B．Therefore, it’s not highly valued in hiring or promotion. C．Quality teaching has been an important reputation-building factor.

In reality it has more to do with the way an individual talks to himself. Self-talk is a constant stream of thoughts of a person, who is often unaware and uncertain of some events, phenomena, people, or even the person himself. 1 Meanwhile, positive thinking can help to stop negative self-talks and start to form a positive view on an issue. People who regularly practise positive thinking tend to solve problems more effectively. They are less exposed to stress caused by external factors. They tend to believe in themselves and in what they do. 2 People who think positively demonstrate increased life spans, lower rates of depression and anxiety, better physical and psychological health, reduced risks of death from heart problems. Positive thinking also contributes to one's ability to deal with problems and hardships. 3 For example, researchers have found that in the case of a crisis accompanied by strong emotions, such as a natural disaster, positive thinking can provide a sort of buffer against depression and anxiety. Resilient people who think positively tend to treat every problem as a challenge, a chance for improvement of any kind, or as an opportunity for personal growth. Pessimists, on the contrary, tend to perceive problems as a source of additional stress. 4 In conclusion, positive thinking is a powerful and effective tool for dealing with hard times and improving the quality of one's life. It doesn't have anything to do with ignorant optimism when an individual refuses to notice a problem. 5 Thinking in a positive, self-encouraging way brings about many benefits to one's physical and mental health. A．It doesn't cause any severe emotional discomfort, either. B．Negative self-talk damages self-confidence and decreases self-respect. C．It helps one to remain clear-headed and confident in difficult situations. D．Positive thinking has several beneficial effects on the body and the mind. E．As thinking changes, an individual's behaviour and habits change as well. F．They often offer a real alternative to the common and regular way of thinking. G．They often feel discouraged long before trying to solve the problem, even if small. （2026·北京丰台·二模）You’re in the middle of the afternoon, eyelids heavy, focus slipping. You close your eyes for half an hour and wake up feeling recharged. But later that night, you’re tossing and turning in bed, wondering why you can’t drift off. 1 Napping has long been praised as a tool for boosting alertness, enhancing mood, strengthening memory, and improving productivity. Yet for some, they can sabotage nighttime sleep. Napping is a double-edged sword. Done right, it is a powerful way to recharge. Done wrong, it can leave you struggling to fall asleep later. 2 Most people experience a natural dip in alertness in the early afternoon, typically between 1 p.m. and 4 p.m. Our internal body clock creates cycles of wakefulness and tiredness throughout the day. The early afternoon lull is part of this cycle, which is why so many people feel drowsy at that time. Studies suggest that a short nap allows the brain to rest without slipping into deep sleep. But there’s a catch. 3 This is due to “sleep inertia” — the grogginess (昏沉) and disorientation that comes from waking up during deeper sleep stages. Once a nap extends beyond 30 minutes, the brain transitions into slow-wave sleep, making it much harder to wake up. For certain groups, napping is essential. 4 A well-timed nap before a night duty can boost their alertness and reduce the risk of errors and accidents. Similarly, people who regularly struggle to get enough sleep at night — whether due to work, parenting, or other demands — may benefit from naps to bank extra hours of sleep that compensate for their sleep loss. 5 Age, lifestyle, and underlying sleep patterns all influence whether naps help or hinder. A good nap is all about strategy — knowing when, how, and if one should nap at all. A．Despite the benefits, napping isn’t for everyone. B．Waking from deep sleep leaves you feeling tired for up to an hour. C．Napping too long may result in waking up feeling worse than before. D．Relying on naps instead of improving nighttime sleep is a short-term fix. E．That midday nap which felt so refreshing at the time might be the reason. F．Shift workers often struggle with broken sleep due to irregular schedules. G．The key lies in understanding how the body regulates sleep and wakefulness. （2026·北京大兴·三模）The Paradox of Choice: Why More Is Less People often assume that the more choices they have, the happier and more satisfied they will be. In modern society, we are surrounded by an endless number of decisions, from small daily choices such as food and clothes to important life decisions such as education and careers. 1 However, psychologist Barry Schwartz introduced the idea of “the paradox of choice,” which suggests that too many choices can actually lead to stress, anxiety, and dissatisfaction. 2 They may worry about making the wrong choice or missing out on better opportunities. This mental pressure is known as “choice overload”. 3 Even when people choose something they like, they may continue to wonder whether another option would have been better. This feeling of doubt prevents them from fully enjoying their choice and often leads to regret. Furthermore, too many choices can make people set unreasonably high standards. 4 In contrast, having fewer choices allows people to make decisions more easily and feel more confident about their final choice. To avoid the negative effects of too many choices, experts suggest limiting options and focusing on personal needs rather than searching for perfection. 5 Understanding the paradox of choice helps people make calmer, clearer, and happier decisions in daily life. A．They begin to expect perfect results, and when reality falls short, they feel disappointed. B．Making wise decisions is essential for a happy and fulfilling life. C．By accepting that “good enough” is often sufficient, people can reduce stress and feel more satisfied with their decisions. D．Many people believe that having more options increases freedom and improves the quality of decisions. E．People tend to spend too much time comparing different choices. F．Too many choices also reduce satisfaction after a decision is made. G．When people are faced with too many options, they often struggle to make a decision. （2026·北京海淀·三模）We’ve all been there — one minute, we’re checking the news for an update, and the next, we’re waist-deep in a flood of negative news. This compulsive need to scroll through bad news or information, known as doomscrolling, has recently become an all-too-common habit. 1 Psychologists have been studying how this behavior affects our cognitive functions, emotional well-being, and even our ability to focus on the things that matter in our daily lives. The result? Doomscrolling isn’t just a means to pass the time — it’s actively harming our mental health. 2 Instead of making us feel prepared and informed, consuming bad news nonstop actually makes us feel more helpless. For people who already struggle with anxiety or depression, doomscrolling can become a maladaptive coping mechanism — a way to seek control over uncontrollable situations. 3 Beyond the obvious stress and anxiety, doomscrolling messes with how we think. It wreaks havoc on our attention span. The brain starts craving constant stimulation, making it harder to focus on tasks that aren’t delivering the same emotional hit. 4 Doomscrolling overloads our brain. Constant exposure to distressing content fills up our working memory, leaving little room for productive thinking or problem-solving. So, how can we break free from the doomscrolling trap? Altogether, avoiding all bad news isn’t the answer. A wiser choice is to develop healthier digital habits. We can begin by scheduling a specific time to check the news. Meanwhile, focus on what we consume: follow reputable sources and mute accounts that thrive on outrage and fear. For every negative story, seek something uplifting or informative to balance the content. 5 Donate, discuss the topic with a trusted friend, or volunteer for a cause. A．It is not surprising that anxiety is on the rise. B．Unfortunately, instead of helping, it feeds the stress cycle. C．We can reclaim our focus, mental health, and peace of mind. D．No wonder reading a book feels harder than scrolling social media. E．If a news story indeed upsets us, we can look for real-world ways to contribute. F．Studies show that doomscrollers reported higher levels of anxiety and depression. G．While staying informed matters, constant exposure to negativity does us no favors. （2026·北京昌平·二模）You’ve heard of coping ahead? It is often helpful to plan, think through possible problems, and determine ahead of time what will be useful for you in an anticipated difficult situation. What may be easier, more automatic, and far less helpful than coping ahead is “dreading ahead. Dreading ahead is when you continue to think about and worry about an upcoming event. 1 To be sure, this is different from planning and preparing. When you dread, you think about the upcoming event. You worry. You find it distracting. You may have physiological symptoms. What you don’t do is plan, prepare, and get on with your life. 2 In fact, it is easy to feel like you are putting a lot of effort into it without actually putting yourself in a better position. That is dreading ahead. That all probably makes sense but the challenge is changing that behavior. 3 As you are thinking about the future with that worried feeling, check in with yourself. Are you planning? Are you taking steps to make it better? Those are useful actions. Or are you worrying? Are you avoiding? Are you dwelling? 4 Self-acceptance is important. Allow that the thing coming up is not something to look forward to. And then notice when you are stuck in a place of dwelling. That place of dwelling can lead to feeling worse and set you up poorly for what you need to manage. Think about whether there is important planning and preparation to do. If not, focus on mindfulness. Come back to the present moment, rather than remaining in that place of dread. That is not an easy thing to do. Do not expect that it will be easy to shift from worrying and dreading to being in the present moment. 5 It is a set of skills worth developing and they can be developed. As you are doing that, remember: Don’t dread ahead! A．You might as well put yourself in the best possible position. B．You likely recognize that you have engaged in anticipatory dread. C．If you are doing the latter. recognize that it is OK to feel your feelings. D．First of all, you have to recognize that dreading ahead is what you are doing. E．So, much emotional energy goes into the concern with little productive happening. F．View this as a practice involving awareness, anxiety tolerance, and the ability to shift. G．It is when the time from now until what is expected is filled with concern and distraction. （2026·北京房山·二模）Your conduct in the interview should convey professionalism and assurance.

This kind of focused listening allows you to make a lasting impression by showing respect and genuine interest in the conversation. 3 Use polite language, speak clearly and concisely, and avoid any improper comments. Avoid restless movements or crossing your arms, which might convey discomfort or nervousness. Keep your mood upbeat and positive throughout. During the interview, take time to think carefully before you respond. 4 Your responses should highlight your skills, achievements, and relevant experiences. Be sincere and genuine, but avoid sharing too much personal information that isn’t directly related to the conversation. You will have the chance to ask questions as the interview goes on. Prepare serious questions about the business, the position, and the work environment in advance. You can show that you’re interested in the job and engaged by asking relevant questions. Your inquiries should center on learning more about the organization and the position itself.

The scene summarizes the essence of intellectual questions. 1 They’re the kind of questions that make you frown, scratch your head, and maybe even lose a little sleep. 2 For instance, as AI systems become increasingly complex, we’re forced to deal with some pretty mind-bending questions, like “Will AI ever achieve true consciousness?” or “Could it one day surpass human intelligence?” Environmental sustainability presents another set of urgent scientific questions: “How can we balance economic growth with environmental protection? Could we engineer our way out of a climate disaster?” Similarly, space exploration has fascinated humans for centuries. 3 We may wonder: “Could we one day settle on other planets?” You might be wondering: “Why bother with all these heavy questions? Can’t we just enjoy a nice, light conversation about the weather?” Well, sure, we could. But where’s the fun in that? Asking intellectual questions isn’t just a way to sound smart at dinner parties. When we engage with intellectual questions, we’re developing critical thinking skills, enhancing our ability to analyze complex issues, and broadening our understanding of the world. 4 And the benefits go beyond personal development. Engaging in intellectual questions can promote understanding. When we struggle with difficult questions together, we learn to appreciate different viewpoints, to challenge our own assumptions, and to find common ground even in disagreement. 5 Didn’t many of the world’s greatest discoveries and inventions start with someone asking “What if?” or “Why not?” So next time you find yourself in a conversation, don’t be afraid to dig a little deeper, to ask the big questions, and to challenge assumptions. Your brain and the world will thank you for it. A．Intellectual questions arise accordingly. B．It’s like going to the gym, but for your brain. C．Intellectual questions are not just surface-level inquiries. D．Moreover, raising big questions drives innovation and progress. E．In a world full of challenges, they are more important than ever. F．As we explore further, the questions touch on the very fabric of our society. G．The questions that unlock deep insights and meaningful connections lie in every corner. （2026·北京西城·一模）Cut your sugar, get some exercise, eat your vegetables, sleep well. Every day, we are surrounded by information about how to live longer, healthier, happier lives. 1 It is to engage in the arts. Over the past few decades, evidence has been increasing to suggest that being more creative works wonders for our health. 2 And the results are astonishing, from music in surgery reducing the amount of painkillers and anti-anxiety medicines needed, to dance programs helping people with Parkinson’s disease to walk. But the arts aren’t just there for us when we are sick. As a public health scientist. I spend my days looking at data from studies — massive datasets that contain thousands of individuals who have completed questionnaires, had nurse interviews, donated blood samples and undergone brain imaging every few years of their lives. 3 Using complex statistical methods, we can look at the long-term relationship between everyday arts engagement and dozens of health outcomes. The results are remarkable. Children who engage more with the arts have a reduced risk of developing problems like depression later in life. Adults who participate more frequently in the arts and visit cultural venues are happier and feel more satisfied with their lives over the years and decades that follow 4 Kindergarteners who engage in music activities have increased prosocial skills as they head into primary school. Teenagers who are involved in bands, dance and editing school newspapers are less likely to get involved in antisocial behaviors or crime. I want to be clear: I am not suggesting the arts can solve all problems. 5 But the evidence remains that engaging regularly in creative activities that you enjoy is an investment in your health that is worth making. A．The benefits aren’t just psychological either. B．Regular arts engagement goes beyond boosting physical health. C．But there is one piece of advice I bet you have never been given. D．Many of these studies contain buried questions on arts engagement. E．Arts can be inaccessible to people because of cost and other reasons. F．Crafts, singing, theatre and writing are good for us as part of our daily lives. G．Programs being developed around the world are starting to integrate the arts into healthcare. （2026·北京通州·一模）Classic literature holds timeless wisdom and fascinating stories. Yet for many students, reading classics can feel challenging or even boring at first. 1 Don’t worry! Here are some practical ways to get started. Pick the right book. We all have our own preferences when it comes to modern novels, so the same should apply to classic works. Think about the genres you enjoy most — romance, adventure, mystery or historical fiction — and begin with a story that matches your interests. Consider listening to an audiobook. Hearing a story read aloud can bring it to life in a new way. 2 A skilled narrator can help you understand the emotions of the characters and the atmosphere of the time. This method is especially helpful if you find the language difficult at first. Slow down your reading pace. Unlike many modern books, classic novels often require patience. Some were first published in parts, which meant readers had time to reflect between chapters. Instead of rushing to finish, take time to think about the themes and ideas. 3 Do some background research when necessary. One difficulty in reading classics is the gap between the author’s time and our own. 4 You may also keep a small list of unfamiliar words or note down characters to avoid confusion. Such preparation can make the story clearer and more rewarding. 5 Once you adjust your expectations and reading habits, you may discover that these works are not distant relics of the past, but living voices that still speak to us today. A．Reading classic literature is not a race but a journey. B．You should read aloud at least one novel every month. C．You may want to try them but feel unsure where to begin. D．This allows you to notice details that you might otherwise miss. E．In fact, many classic works were originally meant to be shared aloud. F．Looking up historical events in the story can deepen your understanding. G．Choosing a book you are naturally curious about will make the process easier. 试卷第1页，共3页 / 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 专题05 七选五 7年真题1年模拟 参考答案 2026·北京·高考真题：1.D 2.A 3.E 4.F 5.C 2025·北京·高考真题：1.G 2.E 3.D 4.C 5.A 2024·北京·高考真题：1.G 2.C 3.D 4.F 5.A 2023·北京·高考真题：1.D 2.F 3.G 4.B 5.E 2022·北京·高考真题：1.G 2.B 3.D 4.F 5.C 2021·北京·高考真题：1.F 2.B 3.D 4.G 5.E 2020·北京·高考真题：1.B 2.D 3.C 4.G 5.A 2026·北京丰台·二模：1.E 2.G 3.C 4.F 5.A 2026·北京大兴·三模：1.D 2.G 3.F 4.A 5.C 2026·北京海淀·三模：1.G 2.F 3.B 4.D 5.E 2026·北京昌平·二模：1.G 2.E 3.D 4.C 5.F 2026·北京房山·二模：1.F 2.D 3.E 4.B 5.G 2026·北京西城·一模：1.C 2.G 3.D 4.A 5.E 2026·北京通州·一模：1.C 2.E 3.D 4.F 5.A 2026·北京东城·二模：1.C 2.G 3.A 4.B 5.D 试卷第1页，共3页 / 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
