(25-26高三·北京海淀·期末)My comfort zone is cozy and predictable. However, I stepped out of it when my friend begged me to go to a Zumba class.
I showed up in yoga pants and was awed by the other participants who were 1 like Olympic gymnasts. I stood in the back row, hoping to blend in. I did not.
The instructor hit play on a speaker and the dancing began. The room exploded into coordinated 2 . Arms flew. Hips swayed. Feet pounded. And I? I 3 .
I was always a beat behind every move: when the class moved right, I moved left; when they spun gracefully, I tripped over my dignity. At one point, I was doing something that looked less like Zumba and more like a confused octopus trying to escape a net.
But then something 4 .
Around song four, I caught sight of myself in the mirror. I looked ridiculous. And yet… I was smiling. No one was 5 me. The woman next to me who had been flawlessly 6 every move even gave me a thumbs-up. It was the oddest form of 7 I had received, but it worked.
I 8 . I laughed. I even pulled off a move that involved dramatic arm waves! By the end of the class, I was sweating, but I had survived. More than that, I had fun.
Leaving the studio, I realized something: the comfort zone is 9 what it sounds like: comfortable. But it’s also where your confidence goes to nap forever. You don’t grow there. You don’t learn there.

(25-26高三·北京·开学考试)Surviving Hurricane Sandy (飓风桑迪)
Natalie Doan, 14, has always felt lucky to live in Rockaway, New York. Living just a few blocks from the beach, Natalie can see the ocean and hear the wave from her house. “It’s the ocean that makes Rockaway so special,” she says.
On October 29, 2012, that ocean turned fierce. That night, Hurricane Sandy attacked the East Coast, and Rockaway was hit especially hard. Fortunately, Natalie’s family escaped to Brooklyn shortly before the city’s bridge closed.
When they returned to Rockaway the next day, they found their neighborhood in ruins. Many of Natalie’s friends had lost their homes and were living far away. All around her, people were suffering, especially the elderly. Natalie’s school was so damaged that she had to temporarily attend a school in Brooklyn.
In the following few days, the men and women helping Rockaway recover inspired Natalie. Volunteers came with carloads of donated clothing and toys. Neighbors devoted their spare time to helping others rebuild. Teenagers climbed dozens of flights of stairs to deliver water and food to elderly people trapped in powerless high-rise buildings.
“My mom tells me that I can’t control what happens to me,” Natalie says. “but I can always choose how I deal with it.”
Natalie’s choice was to help.
She created a website page matching survivors in need with donors who wanted to help. Natalie posted introduction about a boy named Patrick, who lost his baseball card collecting when his house burned down. Within days, Patrick’s collection was replaced.
In the coming months, her website page helped lots of kids: Christopher, who received a new basketball; Charlie, who got a new keyboard. Natalie also worked with other organizations to bring much-need supplies to Rockaway. Her efforts made her a famous person. Last April, she was invited to the White House and honored as a Hurricane Sandy Champion of Change.
Today, the scars (创痕) of destruction are still seen in Rockaway, but hope is in the air. The streets are clear, and many homes have been rebuilt. “I can’t imagine living anywhere but Rockaway,” Natalie declares. “My neighborhood will be back, even stronger than before.”
24.When Natalie returned to Rockaway after the hurricane, she found ______.
A.some friends had lost their lives.
B.her neighborhood was destroyed.
C.her school had moved to Brooklyn.
D.the elderly were free from suffering.
25.According to paragraph 4, who inspired Natalie most?
A.The people helping Rockaway rebuild.
B.The people trapped in high-rise building.
C.The volunteers donating money to survivors.
D.Local teenagers bringing clothing to elderly people.
26.How did Natalie help the survivors?
A.She gave her toys to the kids.
B.She took care of younger children.
C.She called on the White House to help.
D.She built an information sharing platform.
27.What does the story intend to tell us?
A.Little people can make a big difference.
B.A friend in need is a friend indeed.
C.East or West, home is best.
D.Technology is power.

(2024·北京朝阳·二模)Science begins with mystery. Arguably, the two greatest mysteries are the universe and awareness-the vast world out there and the powerful world within. Scientists attracted by one can be called to study the other, led by the thought that these mysteries are connected. Science writer George Musser’s book Putting Ourselves Back in the Equation (方程) reviews their progress: Can physics unlock the mystery of awareness? Does awareness form the basis of fundamental physics?
The result is an ambitious but ultimately disappointing tour, filled with breathless encounters with well-known scientists. Representative of the cast is MIT’s Max Tegmark, who tells Musser, “If you look at the problems that were still difficult to answer in fundamental physics, pretty much all of them trace back to awareness.”
The book shows how physicists are contributing to understanding the mind, continuing a long history of physicists exploring other fields. Musser integrates physics with neuroscience, economies, mathematics and more. Yet a key source of local knowledge is obviously absent — psychology. An early example: Musser rightly applauds physicists’ contributions to artificial neural networks but is overly trustful of their implications, declaring that “ChatGPT” is already starting to demonstrate a generalized intelligence like that of humans. Interviewing more psychologists could have exposed the considerable gap remaining.
What about awareness itself? Why are some states associated with felt experience, such as the pain of a headache and the sight of a sunset, but others not? Musser’s focus is integrated information theory(IIT). IIT begins with five self-evident principles of awareness: awareness exists, and it is structured, specific, unified, and definite. It then concludes assumptions concerning the causal structure of awareness systems, identifying awareness with integrated information. Finally, IIT offers a mathematical measure of this quantity: an equation for awareness.
However, despite its enthusiasts, IIT has significant problems. Its working basis is unfounded, and serious doubts surround its testability and definability. Of course, a theory of awareness must detail when, why, and to what degree we are aware of ourselves. Here, psychology’s absence is most obvious. Over the last century, psychological research has revealed countless phenomena of awareness, from models that alter awareness to methods that stimulate unawareness; from extraordinary disorders of awareness to careful studies of metacognition (元认知).
Although questionable, such phenomena are the data that any scientific theory of awareness must account for. Yet these phenomena and ideas are almost nowhere in the book. Of course, psychology has not solved awareness, but one cannot hope to explain awareness without confronting these data.
Awareness is genuinely mysterious. So is fundamental physics. But hoping that physics can solve awareness while excluding other approaches is only a recipe for more mystery, not less.
28.What can we learn from Musser’s book?
A.IIT is acknowledged for its testability and definability.
B.Musser underestimates the impact of artificial intelligence.
C.Using psychology is a trend for physicists exploring other fields.
D.Musser highlights physicists’ efforts to uncover the secret of awareness.
29.What can be inferred from the passage?
A.The link between physics and awareness has been established.
B.There is no doubt about the principles of an equation for awareness.
C.A multidisciplinary approach is essential to understanding awareness.
D.Study of awareness needs to ignore related psychological phenomena.
30.Regarding Musser’s view in his book, the author is .
A.neutral B.disapproving C.supportive D.uncertain
D
(25-26高三·北京·阶段检测)In “the repair shop”, a British television series, craftsmen(工匠)mend family heirlooms(传家宝)that viewers have brought to their workshop. The attraction comes from watching them apply their craft to restore these heirlooms and the emotional appeal from the tears that follow when the owner is presented with the beautifully restored heirlooms.
Perhaps the idea of craftsmanship is not simply nostalgic(怀旧的). In a new paper in the Academy of Management, five academics examine the idea of crafts as a way of remaking the organization of work. They define craft as “a humanist approach to work that prioritizes human engagement over machine control”. Crafts require distinct skills, an all-round approach to work that involves the whole product and an attitude that necessitates devotion to the job and a focus on the communal interest. The concept of craft emphasizes the human touch and individual judgment. Essentially, the crafts concept seems to run against the management studies which have long prioritized efficiency and consistency.
There are two potential markets for those who practise crafts. The first comes from the consumers who are willing to pay an extra price for goods considered to be of extra quality. This market stretches all the way down from designer fashion through craft beers to bakeries offering loaves made by hand. The second market lies in those consumers who wish to use their purchases to support local workers, or to reduce their environmental impact by taking goods to craftspeople to be mended, or recycled.
For workers, the appeal of craftsmanship is that it allows them the autonomy to make creative choices, and thus makes a job far more satisfying. In that sense, it could offer hope for the overall labor market. Let the machines automate dull and repetitive tasks and let workers focus purely on their skills, judgment and imagination. As a current example, the academics cite the agile manifesto(敏捷软件开发宣言) in the software sector, an industry at the heart of technological change. The pioneers behind the original agile manifesto promised to prioritize “individuals and interactions over processes and tools”. By bringing together experts from different teams, agile working is designed to improve creativity.
But the broader question is whether crafts can create a lot more jobs than they do today. Demand for crafted products may rise but will it be easy to retrain workers in sectors that might get automated (such as truck drivers) to take advantage?
History also suggests that the link between crafts and creativity is not automatic. Young craftsmen are expected to spend long periods as journeymen before they could set up on their own; by that time the innovative spirit may have been knocked out of them. Craft workers can thrive in the modern era, but only if they don’t get too organized.
31.Which of the following is true about craft?
A.It emphasizes the importance of marketing. B.It slows the expansion of potential markets.
C.It generates greater efficiency and consistency. D.It requires comprehensive understanding of work.
32.The “agile manifesto” is mentioned to show ________.
A.the competition in the labor market B.the benefit of craftsmanship to workers
C.the advantage of mechanical automation D.the importance of software in technological change
33.In the last two paragraphs, the author intends to express ________.
A.anxiety over the loss of crafts B.concern for the prospect of crafts
C.disappointment with craft workers D.expectation of the rise in craft production
34.What is the best title for the passage?
A.The Emotional Appeal—Crafts and Restoration
B.The Humanist Approach—Crafts and Innovation
C.The Human Touch—Crafts and the Future of Work
D.The Efficiency War—Crafts and Mass-produced Products

(25-26高三·北京·阶段检测)Hesitation as intuition (直觉)
You’ve thought about it. You’ve made your decision and then.….you hesitate. Your mouse hovers over the “purchase now” button, you’ve written the text but can’t quite bring yourself to press “send”. You hesitate. 35
Our culture values doing. We’re constantly urged to “go for it.” But what if hesitation is not a sign of weakness but rather a valuable signal? 36 But we don’t always make it a practice to listen to our bodies. When we do pay attention, we have access to a lot of nonrational information including our intuition. If you notice yourself hesitating, it might mean a part of you isn’t quite sure. Hesitation can be the body’s way of alerting us to overlooked details or concealed information that could be crucial to our choice.
Since hesitation can carry such significance, it becomes essential to understand the nature of the signals our bodies send. Although distinguishing between intuition and fear or anxiety is not easy, when we cultivate the habit of self-awareness and understand our fears, we can begin to decipher (辨认) the messages behind our hesitation. Moreover, our rational minds have their limitations. 37 Therefore, by integrating our emotions and physical sensations into the decision-making process, we access a more comprehensive understanding.
To make more informed decisions, we can employ specific strategies. One way that we can help ourselves with a specific decision is to notice when there’s hesitation and, if you have the time, wait. 38 Another interesting way to look at making a decision is to walk up to the door of it. Take action as if you had already made the decision. And before it’s too late, notice how it feels to walk that path. That may give you more information than thinking ever could.
39 By integrating both rational and intuitive elements, we can handle the complex choices with greater confidence and clarity.
A.It’s easy to miss intuitive signals when we are moving from thinking minds.
B.They work within fixed frameworks that might not match the complex reality.
C.While our minds are undoubtedly powerful, our bodies also hold a wealth of wisdom.
D.In nature, the key to effective decision-making lies in seeing hesitation as a help.
E.Check back in with the decision you thought you made and see if anything differs.
F.Hesitation means your intuition is trying to speak to you from deep inner place.
G.This hesitation is common yet often overlooked in our decision-making process.

(25-26高三·北京·阶段检测)阅读下面短文,根据题目要求用英文回答问题。
What makes some people incapable of apologizing even when they’re clearly in the wrong?
People who cannot apologize often have deep feelings of low self-worth. When their delicate ego(自我) cannot absorb the blow of admitting they were wrong, their defense mechanisms kick in—they may place blame and even argue about basic facts to prevent the threat of having to lower themselves by offering an apology.
Unfortunately, many of us mistakenly interpret these people’s defensiveness as a sign of psychological strength. That’s because outwardly they appear to be tough individuals who refuse to back down. But this doesn’t show that they’re strong—it shows that they’re weak.
Admitting that we’re wrong is emotionally uncomfortable and painful to our sense of self. In order to take responsibility and apologize, our self-worth needs to be strong enough to absorb that discomfort. Indeed, if our self-worth is higher and more stable, we can tolerate the temporary discomfort that such an admission involves—without the walls around our ego falling down.
But if our self-worth is seemingly high but actually breakable, that discomfort can go through our defensive walls and score a direct hit to our ego. Indeed, the more fixed one’s defense mechanisms are, the more delicate the ego they’re protecting.
The mistake we often make when faced with someone who’s habitually incapable of apologizing is to become angry and try to win our argument with them. But the sad reality is that we can never win. In these situations, the best we can do is make our points as calmly and as convincingly as we can and then disengage from the argument when it becomes unproductive—like when they disagree with the facts, come up with silly excuses or turn to mean remarks.
40.Why can’t some people apologize?
41.What do many people mistakenly think of a non-apologizer’s defensiveness?
42.Please decide which part is false in the following statement, then underline it and explain why.
►When you are trying to win an argument with a non-apologizer, the best way is to express your anger and make your point as calmly and convincingly as possible.
43.In addition to what is mentioned in the passage, what else can you do if your friend refuses to apologize to you? (In about 40 words)

(25-26高三·北京·开学考试)Surviving Hurricane Sandy (飓风桑迪)
Natalie Doan, 14, has always felt lucky to live in Rockaway, New York. Living just a few blocks from the beach, Natalie can see the ocean and hear the wave from her house. “It’s the ocean that makes Rockaway so special,” she says.
On October 29, 2012, that ocean turned fierce. That night, Hurricane Sandy attacked the East Coast, and Rockaway was hit especially hard. Fortunately, Natalie’s family escaped to Brooklyn shortly before the city’s bridge closed.
When they returned to Rockaway the next day, they found their neighborhood in ruins. Many of Natalie’s friends had lost their homes and were living far away. All around her, people were suffering, especially the elderly. Natalie’s school was so damaged that she had to temporarily attend a school in Brooklyn.
In the following few days, the men and women helping Rockaway recover inspired Natalie. Volunteers came with carloads of donated clothing and toys. Neighbors devoted their spare time to helping others rebuild. Teenagers climbed dozens of flights of stairs to deliver water and food to elderly people trapped in powerless high-rise buildings.
“My mom tells me that I can’t control what happens to me,” Natalie says. “but I can always choose how I deal with it.”
Natalie’s choice was to help.
She created a website page matching survivors in need with donors who wanted to help. Natalie posted introduction about a boy named Patrick, who lost his baseball card collecting when his house burned down. Within days, Patrick’s collection was replaced.
In the coming months, her website page helped lots of kids: Christopher, who received a new basketball; Charlie, who got a new keyboard. Natalie also worked with other organizations to bring much-need supplies to Rockaway. Her efforts made her a famous person. Last April, she was invited to the White House and honored as a Hurricane Sandy Champion of Change.
Today, the scars (创痕) of destruction are still seen in Rockaway, but hope is in the air. The streets are clear, and many homes have been rebuilt. “I can’t imagine living anywhere but Rockaway,” Natalie declares. “My neighborhood will be back, even stronger than before.”
24.When Natalie returned to Rockaway after the hurricane, she found ______.
A.some friends had lost their lives.
B.her neighborhood was destroyed.
C.her school had moved to Brooklyn.
D.the elderly were free from suffering.
25.According to paragraph 4, who inspired Natalie most?
A.The people helping Rockaway rebuild.
B.The people trapped in high-rise building.
C.The volunteers donating money to survivors.
D.Local teenagers bringing clothing to elderly people.
26.How did Natalie help the survivors?
A.She gave her toys to the kids.
B.She took care of younger children.
C.She called on the White House to help.
D.She built an information sharing platform.
27.What does the story intend to tell us?
A.Little people can make a big difference.
B.A friend in need is a friend indeed.
C.East or West, home is best.
D.Technology is power.
【答案】24.B 25.A 26.D 27.A

(2024·北京朝阳·二模)Science begins with mystery. Arguably, the two greatest mysteries are the universe and awareness-the vast world out there and the powerful world within. Scientists attracted by one can be called to study the other, led by the thought that these mysteries are connected. Science writer George Musser’s book Putting Ourselves Back in the Equation (方程) reviews their progress: Can physics unlock the mystery of awareness? Does awareness form the basis of fundamental physics?
The result is an ambitious but ultimately disappointing tour, filled with breathless encounters with well-known scientists. Representative of the cast is MIT’s Max Tegmark, who tells Musser, “If you look at the problems that were still difficult to answer in fundamental physics, pretty much all of them trace back to awareness.”
The book shows how physicists are contributing to understanding the mind, continuing a long history of physicists exploring other fields. Musser integrates physics with neuroscience, economies, mathematics and more. Yet a key source of local knowledge is obviously absent — psychology. An early example: Musser rightly applauds physicists’ contributions to artificial neural networks but is overly trustful of their implications, declaring that “ChatGPT” is already starting to demonstrate a generalized intelligence like that of humans. Interviewing more psychologists could have exposed the considerable gap remaining.
What about awareness itself? Why are some states associated with felt experience, such as the pain of a headache and the sight of a sunset, but others not? Musser’s focus is integrated information theory(IIT). IIT begins with five self-evident principles of awareness: awareness exists, and it is structured, specific, unified, and definite. It then concludes assumptions concerning the causal structure of awareness systems, identifying awareness with integrated information. Finally, IIT offers a mathematical measure of this quantity: an equation for awareness.
However, despite its enthusiasts, IIT has significant problems. Its working basis is unfounded, and serious doubts surround its testability and definability. Of course, a theory of awareness must detail when, why, and to what degree we are aware of ourselves. Here, psychology’s absence is most obvious. Over the last century, psychological research has revealed countless phenomena of awareness, from models that alter awareness to methods that stimulate unawareness; from extraordinary disorders of awareness to careful studies of metacognition (元认知).
Although questionable, such phenomena are the data that any scientific theory of awareness must account for. Yet these phenomena and ideas are almost nowhere in the book. Of course, psychology has not solved awareness, but one cannot hope to explain awareness without confronting these data.
Awareness is genuinely mysterious. So is fundamental physics. But hoping that physics can solve awareness while excluding other approaches is only a recipe for more mystery, not less.
28.What can we learn from Musser’s book?
A.IIT is acknowledged for its testability and definability.
B.Musser underestimates the impact of artificial intelligence.
C.Using psychology is a trend for physicists exploring other fields.
D.Musser highlights physicists’ efforts to uncover the secret of awareness.
29.What can be inferred from the passage?
A.The link between physics and awareness has been established.
B.There is no doubt about the principles of an equation for awareness.
C.A multidisciplinary approach is essential to understanding awareness.
D.Study of awareness needs to ignore related psychological phenomena.
30.Regarding Musser’s view in his book, the author is .
A.neutral B.disapproving C.supportive D.uncertain
【答案】28.D 29.C 30.B
【导语】本文体裁为说明文。文本主要介绍了科学作家George Musser的书籍《Putting Ourselves Back in the Equation》及其探讨的主题——物理学与意识之谜的关系。文中提到了物理学家对意识研究的贡献,以及Musser在书中如何整合了物理学、神经科学、经济学、数学等多个领域的知识来探讨这个问题。
【详解】28.细节理解题。根据文章第一段中的“Science writer George Musser’s book Putting Ourselves Back in the Equation (方程) reviews their progress: Can physics unlock the mystery of awareness? Does awareness form the basis of fundamental physics? (科学作家George Musser的书《Putting Ourselves Back in the Equation》回顾了他们的进展:物理学能解开意识之谜吗?意识构成了基础物理学的基础吗?)”和第三段中的“The book shows how physicists are contributing to understanding the mind, continuing a long history of physicists exploring other fields. (这本书展示了物理学家如何为理解心灵做出贡献,延续了物理学家探索其他领域的悠久历史。)”可知,Musser的书《Putting Ourselves Back in the Equation》探讨了物理学是否能解开意识的谜团,以及意识是否构成了基础物理的基础,这本书展示了物理学家如何为理解心灵做出贡献,物理学家在揭开意识之谜方面的努力。故选D项。
29.推理判断题。根据文章第三段中的“Musser integrates physics with neuroscience, economies, mathematics and more. Yet a key source of local knowledge is obviously absent—psychology. An early example: Musser rightly applauds physicists’ contributions to artificial neural networks but is overly trustful of their implications, declaring that “ChatGPT” is already starting to demonstrate a generalized intelligence like that of humans. Interviewing more psychologists could have exposed the considerable gap remaining. (Musser将物理学与神经科学、经济学、数学等相结合。然而,当地知识的一个关键来源显然是缺失的——心理学。)”可知,虽然Musser的书尝试将物理学与神经科学、经济学、数学等多领域结合来探讨意识,但明显缺少心理学这一关键领域的参与。这暗示了理解意识需要一个多学科的方法。故选C项。
30.推理判断题。通读全文,结合最后一段“Awareness is genuinely mysterious. So is fundamental physics. But hoping that physics can solve awareness while excluding other approaches is only a recipe for more mystery, not less. (意识是真正神秘的。基础物理学也是如此。但是,希望物理学能够在排除其他方法的情况下解决意识问题,只会带来更多的谜团,而不是更少。)”可知,作者尽管肯定了其探索意识秘密的雄心和物理学家跨领域研究的努力,但同时也指出了其问题:强调用物理学来解决意识之谜的方法,而忽视了其他学科,特别是心理学的贡献和见解是不可行的。因此,作者对于Musser在书中的观点持不赞同的态度。故选B项。
D
(25-26高三·北京·阶段检测)In “the repair shop”, a British television series, craftsmen(工匠)mend family heirlooms(传家宝)that viewers have brought to their workshop. The attraction comes from watching them apply their craft to restore these heirlooms and the emotional appeal from the tears that follow when the owner is presented with the beautifully restored heirlooms.
Perhaps the idea of craftsmanship is not simply nostalgic(怀旧的). In a new paper in the Academy of Management, five academics examine the idea of crafts as a way of remaking the organization of work. They define craft as “a humanist approach to work that prioritizes human engagement over machine control”. Crafts require distinct skills, an all-round approach to work that involves the whole product and an attitude that necessitates devotion to the job and a focus on the communal interest. The concept of craft emphasizes the human touch and individual judgment. Essentially, the crafts concept seems to run against the management studies which have long prioritized efficiency and consistency.
There are two potential markets for those who practise crafts. The first comes from the consumers who are willing to pay an extra price for goods considered to be of extra quality. This market stretches all the way down from designer fashion through craft beers to bakeries offering loaves made by hand. The second market lies in those consumers who wish to use their purchases to support local workers, or to reduce their environmental impact by taking goods to craftspeople to be mended, or recycled.
For workers, the appeal of craftsmanship is that it allows them the autonomy to make creative choices, and thus makes a job far more satisfying. In that sense, it could offer hope for the overall labor market. Let the machines automate dull and repetitive tasks and let workers focus purely on their skills, judgment and imagination. As a current example, the academics cite the agile manifesto(敏捷软件开发宣言) in the software sector, an industry at the heart of technological change. The pioneers behind the original agile manifesto promised to prioritize “individuals and interactions over processes and tools”. By bringing together experts from different teams, agile working is designed to improve creativity.
But the broader question is whether crafts can create a lot more jobs than they do today. Demand for crafted products may rise but will it be easy to retrain workers in sectors that might get automated (such as truck drivers) to take advantage?
History also suggests that the link between crafts and creativity is not automatic. Young craftsmen are expected to spend long periods as journeymen before they could set up on their own; by that time the innovative spirit may have been knocked out of them. Craft workers can thrive in the modern era, but only if they don’t get too organized.
31.Which of the following is true about craft?
A.It emphasizes the importance of marketing. B.It slows the expansion of potential markets.
C.It generates greater efficiency and consistency. D.It requires comprehensive understanding of work.
32.The “agile manifesto” is mentioned to show ________.
A.the competition in the labor market B.the benefit of craftsmanship to workers
C.the advantage of mechanical automation D.the importance of software in technological change
33.In the last two paragraphs, the author intends to express ________.
A.anxiety over the loss of crafts B.concern for the prospect of crafts
C.disappointment with craft workers D.expectation of the rise in craft production
34.What is the best title for the passage?
A.The Emotional Appeal—Crafts and Restoration
B.The Humanist Approach—Crafts and Innovation
C.The Human Touch—Crafts and the Future of Work
D.The Efficiency War—Crafts and Mass-produced Products

(25-26高三·北京·阶段检测)Hesitation as intuition (直觉)
You’ve thought about it. You’ve made your decision and then.….you hesitate. Your mouse hovers over the “purchase now” button, you’ve written the text but can’t quite bring yourself to press “send”. You hesitate. 35
Our culture values doing. We’re constantly urged to “go for it.” But what if hesitation is not a sign of weakness but rather a valuable signal? 36 But we don’t always make it a practice to listen to our bodies. When we do pay attention, we have access to a lot of nonrational information including our intuition. If you notice yourself hesitating, it might mean a part of you isn’t quite sure. Hesitation can be the body’s way of alerting us to overlooked details or concealed information that could be crucial to our choice.
Since hesitation can carry such significance, it becomes essential to understand the nature of the signals our bodies send. Although distinguishing between intuition and fear or anxiety is not easy, when we cultivate the habit of self-awareness and understand our fears, we can begin to decipher (辨认) the messages behind our hesitation. Moreover, our rational minds have their limitations. 37 Therefore, by integrating our emotions and physical sensations into the decision-making process, we access a more comprehensive understanding.
To make more informed decisions, we can employ specific strategies. One way that we can help ourselves with a specific decision is to notice when there’s hesitation and, if you have the time, wait. 38 Another interesting way to look at making a decision is to walk up to the door of it. Take action as if you had already made the decision. And before it’s too late, notice how it feels to walk that path. That may give you more information than thinking ever could.
39 By integrating both rational and intuitive elements, we can handle the complex choices with greater confidence and clarity.
A.It’s easy to miss intuitive signals when we are moving from thinking minds.
B.They work within fixed frameworks that might not match the complex reality.
C.While our minds are undoubtedly powerful, our bodies also hold a wealth of wisdom.
D.In nature, the key to effective decision-making lies in seeing hesitation as a help.
E.Check back in with the decision you thought you made and see if anything differs.
F.Hesitation means your intuition is trying to speak to you from deep inner place.
G.This hesitation is common yet often overlooked in our decision-making process.
【答案】35.G 36.C 37.B 38.E 39.D
【导语】这是一篇说明文。短文介绍了犹豫的重要意义以及做出更明智的决定,我们可以采用具体的策略。
【详解】35.根据上文“Your mouse hovers over the “purchase now” button, you’ve written the text but can’t quite bring yourself to press “send”. You hesitate.(你的鼠标悬停在“立即购买”按钮上,你已经写好了文字,但无法让自己按下“发送”。你犹豫)”可知,选项承接上文说明这种现象的普遍性和被忽视性。故G选项“这种犹豫很常见,但在我们做决定的过程中却经常被忽视”切题。故选G项。
36.根据下文“But we don’t always make it a practice to listen to our bodies. When we do pay attention, we have access to a lot of nonrational information including our intuition. (但是我们并没有经常去倾听我们身体的声音。当我们集中注意力的时候,我们可以接触到很多非理性的信息,包括我们的直觉)”可知,选项承接下文说明我们的身体中藏着巨大的智慧。故C选项“虽然我们的思想无疑是强大的,但我们的身体也拥有丰富的智慧”切题。a wealth of wisdom呼应a lot of nonrational information。故选C项。
37.根据上文“Moreover, our rational minds have their limitations.(此外,我们的理性思维也有其局限性)”可知,选项承接上文具体说明局限性的内容。故B选项“它们在固定的框架内工作,可能与复杂的现实不匹配”切题。故选B项。
38.根据上文“One way that we can help ourselves with a specific decision is to notice when there’s hesitation and, if you have the time, wait.(我们可以帮助自己做出具体决定的一种方法是注意到犹豫的时候,如果你有时间,等待)”可知,选项与上文为并列关系继续说明犹豫的时候该做的事情。故E选项“回顾一下你认为自己做出的决定,看看是否有什么不同”切题。故选E项。
39.根据下文“By integrating both rational and intuitive elements, we can handle the complex choices with greater confidence and clarity.(通过整合理性和直觉的元素,我们可以更有信心和更清晰地处理复杂的选择)”可知,选项在总结全文强调了犹豫在决策中的重要作用且这种作用能够帮助我们处理复杂的选择。故D选项“从本质上讲,有效决策的关键在于将犹豫视为一种帮助”切题。故选D项。
第三部分 书面表达(共两节,32分)
第一节(共4小题;第40、41题各2分,第42题3分,第43题5分,共12分)
(25-26高三·北京·阶段检测)阅读下面短文,根据题目要求用英文回答问题。
What makes some people incapable of apologizing even when they’re clearly in the wrong?
People who cannot apologize often have deep feelings of low self-worth. When their delicate ego(自我) cannot absorb the blow of admitting they were wrong, their defense mechanisms kick in—they may place blame and even argue about basic facts to prevent the threat of having to lower themselves by offering an apology.
Unfortunately, many of us mistakenly interpret these people’s defensiveness as a sign of psychological strength. That’s because outwardly they appear to be tough individuals who refuse to back down. But this doesn’t show that they’re strong—it shows that they’re weak.
Admitting that we’re wrong is emotionally uncomfortable and painful to our sense of self. In order to take responsibility and apologize, our self-worth needs to be strong enough to absorb that discomfort. Indeed, if our self-worth is higher and more stable, we can tolerate the temporary discomfort that such an admission involves—without the walls around our ego falling down.
But if our self-worth is seemingly high but actually breakable, that discomfort can go through our defensive walls and score a direct hit to our ego. Indeed, the more fixed one’s defense mechanisms are, the more delicate the ego they’re protecting.
The mistake we often make when faced with someone who’s habitually incapable of apologizing is to become angry and try to win our argument with them. But the sad reality is that we can never win. In these situations, the best we can do is make our points as calmly and as convincingly as we can and then disengage from the argument when it becomes unproductive—like when they disagree with the facts, come up with silly excuses or turn to mean remarks.
40.Why can’t some people apologize?
41.What do many people mistakenly think of a non-apologizer’s defensiveness?
42.Please decide which part is false in the following statement, then underline it and explain why.
►When you are trying to win an argument with a non-apologizer, the best way is to express your anger and make your point as calmly and convincingly as possible.
43.In addition to what is mentioned in the passage, what else can you do if your friend refuses to apologize to you? (In about 40 words)
【答案】40.Because they often have deep feelings of low self-worth,
41.They think of it as a sign of psychological strength.
42.When you are trying to win an argument with a non-apologizer, the best way is to express your anger and make your point as calmly and convincingly as possible.
When you are trying to win an argument with a non-apologizer, the best way is to make your point as calmly and convincingly as possible and then disengage from the argument when it becomes unproductive.
43.言之有理即可。
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一些人即使明知是错的也无法道歉的原因。
【详解】40.细节理解题。根据第一段“People who cannot apologize often have deep feelings of low self-worth.(那些不会道歉的人往往有自我价值感较低的深层感受。)”可知,有些人不能道歉是因为他们经常有很深的自卑。故答案为Because they often have deep feelings of low self-worth,
41.细节理解题。根据第二段“Unfortunately, many of us mistakenly interpret these people’s defensiveness as a sign of psychological strength.(不幸的是,我们中的许多人错误地将这些人的防御性理解为心理力量的标志。)”可知,许多人错误地认为一个不道歉的人是防御性的,他们认为这是一种心理力量。故答案为They think of it as a sign of psychological strength.
42.细节理解题。根据最后一段“In these situations, the best we can do is make our points as calmly and as convincingly as we can and then disengage from the argument when it becomes unproductive—like when they disagree with the facts, come up with silly excuses or turn to mean remarks.(在这种情况下,我们所能做的就是尽可能冷静地、令人信服地阐述自己的观点,然后在争论变得毫无意义时就退出——比如当他们不同意事实时,就想出愚蠢的借口或发表刻薄的言论。)”可知,当你试图赢得与一个不道歉的人的争论时要注意在争论变得毫无意义时退出。故答案为When you are trying to win an argument with a non-apologizer, the best way is to express your anger and make your point as calmly and convincingly as possible.
When you are trying to win an argument with a non-apologizer, the best way is to make your point as calmly and convincingly as possible and then disengage from the argument when it becomes unproductive.
43.开放题。如果你的朋友拒绝向你道歉,你所能做的。考生言之有理即可。参考答案为:If they are not friends you interact with regularly, you can consider minimizing contact with them. But if they are close connections, you can accept their behavior and try to make your peace with them.

How is it going? We plan to form a research-based learning group. I wonder whether you would like to join us.
Our topic is “A Study on the Differences between British English and American English”. We mainly focus on their differences in terms of spelling, pronunciation and vocabulary. The aim is to make us familiar with the underlying causes and effects of the differences so that we can gain a better understanding of the English language.
I know you are a native speaker of British English and you lived in America for several years, so hopefully you can give us some guidance during the research process. Please inform me of your decision by Friday.
Your involvement will add much joy to our group. Looking forward to your reply.

As you know, we are required to do research-based learning this term. I am writing to invite you to join my team.
Here is the detailed information. We intend to compare Chinese literature and English literature in the same historical period, for example, Shakespeare and Tang Xianzu of the Ming Dynasty. Since there was little chance for pure literary exchange between nations in history, what we are doing can help great writers from China and Britain talk spiritually to some extent.
I want you in because I know you have a great passion for British literature. Your professional knowledge will surely help us in efficiency and accuracy. Also, just imagine the sense of awe you may get from the similarities and differences we will find. If you are interested, let me know before next Friday.
Looking forward to your reply!

I’m establishing a research-based learning team on English study. I wonder if you would like to be a member of it.
I plan to study how to improve our English ability by watching English movies. Ten classic movies like Forrest Gump will be covered. We will analyze the authentic expressions and native pronunciations, and discuss how to apply them to English study. As watching English movies offers an easy access to English learning, this project will give students a clue about enjoyable and practical learning methods.
Knowing you have conducted relevant research, I think my project may feed your interest from a different angle. Moreover, I’m sure your participation will increase the efficiency of completing tasks. If you’d like to come, please let me know before next Friday.
I sincerely hope we can work together on this project.
