Psychologists（心理学家） often refer to this as"mindful decision﹣making，"a process of stopping to consider the results of our actions before we act.My father's "extra﹣minute"rule is a simple but powerful example of this idea，encouraging me to slow down and make thoughtful choices to avoid mistakes and regrets. This rule has shaped my life in many ways.When my children were small，I slid hot drinks out of reach and covered sharp table corners﹣tiny steps that often prevented accidents we would later regret. But the benefits of the extra﹣minute rule go beyond safety.It also strengthens relationships.People often wish they had said"I love you"or"I'm sorry"while they still had the chance.One Saturday morning，my father already in his eighties planned to see an eye doctor near my office.At first，I told him I would stay home and enjoy the holiday.Then I paused and reminded myself，"He's getting older，and every moment we share counts".I changed my plan，drove across town，and sat beside him in the clinic.That single hour has become one of my most cherished memories. As for me，the extra﹣minute rule is simple but powerful.Whenever I finish a task﹣or before I speak or press"send"—I stop and ask myself two questions："Is it safe？Is it kind？"Those seconds have rescued me more times than I can count. For safety，the benefits are immediate.Before leaving the house，I check that the stove is off，candles are out and windows are locked.One morning，the pause saved me：I smelled gas under a pot I had forgotten to turn off.A friend once flooded his flat by leaving a tap running；he now says he wishes he had taken the same minute. Kindness grows from the pause as well.Recently I wrote an angry message to a workmate who hadn't answered our project note.Just before sending，I paused，softened my words and asked if everything was okay.Hours later，she explained she'd faced a family emergency and hadn't seen her phone all day.Without that minute，our friendship—and our project might have cracked. Life will never be perfect，and mistakes will still happen.Yet most regrets begin small﹣a careless word，an unchecked switch，or a hurried choice.An extra minute cannot change the past，but it can shape a safer，kinder future. So next time you hurry out the door，end a conversation，or are about to press"send，"give yourself that one﹣minute pause.It may be the briefest minute of your day，but it could spare you the saddest words in English："if only." 34 Why did the author drive across town that Saturday morning？ 　 　 A.To relax at home and enjoy a peaceful holiday. B.To attend her own scheduled eye check﹣up. C.To keep her elderly father company at a clinic. D.To finish important project work at her office. 35 In Paragraph 7，the underlined word"cracked"most probably means 　 　 . A.broken B.improved C.started D.slowed 36 According to the"extra﹣minute"rule，what should people do？ 　 　 A.Leave a hot iron on while stepping out. B.Choose words carefully before replying. C.Wait a minute so that the dish tastes better. D.Start the car without checking everyone is seated. 37 Which of the following would be the best title for this passage？ 　 A.A Father's Safety Tip B.Two Saddest Words，"If Only" C.The Value of Taking a Moment D.Pausing Builds Better Relationships 【分析】短文说的是父亲教导的"多花一分钟做对事"规则深刻影响了作者人生，倡导行动前停思后果（即心理学所说的审慎决策）。强调虽无法改变过去错误，但这一分钟的停顿能塑造更安全善良的未来，减少"要是当初…"的遗憾。 【解答】 34 细节理解题。根据文中第4段：One Saturday morning...I changed my plan，drove across town，and sat beside him in the clinic.（一个星期六的早上，......我改变了计划，开车穿过城镇，在诊所里坐在他旁边。）可知，作者在那个星期六早上开车穿过城镇是为了在诊所陪伴她年迈的父亲。故选C。 35 词义猜测题。根据文中第7段：Hours later，she explained she'd faced a family emergency and hadn't seen her phone all day.Without that minute，our friendship—and our project might have cracked.（几个小时后，她解释说她家里有急事，一整天都没看到手机。如果没有那一分钟，我们的友谊和我们的项目可能会......。）可知，划线词汇意为"破裂"。故选A。 35 推理判断题。根据文中最后1段：So next time you hurry out the door，end a conversation，or are about to press"send，"give yourself that one﹣minute pause.It may be the briefest minute of your day，but it could spare you the saddest words in English："if only."（所以下次你匆忙出门，结束一段对话，或者准备按下"发送"键时，给自己一分钟的停顿时间。这可能是你一天中最短暂的一分钟，但它可以让你不用说英语中最悲伤的话："但愿如此。"）可推知，根据"额外一分钟"规则，人们应该做什么？在回复之前要小心选词。故选B。 37 标题归纳题。根据文中倒数第2段：An extra minute cannot change the past，but it can shape a safer，kinder future.（多一分钟不能改变过去，但可以塑造一个更安全、更友善的未来。）以及通读全文可知，短文说的是父亲教导的"多花一分钟做对事"规则深刻影响了作者人生，倡导行动前停思后果（即心理学所说的审慎决策）。强调虽无法改变过去错误，但这一分钟的停顿能塑造更安全善良的未来，减少"要是当初…"的遗憾。所以"花点时间的价值"适合作为标题，故选C。 C In the park, you see a group of people, all looking up at the sky. Without thinking about it, you look upwards, too. Why? In the concert, someone begins to clap and suddenly the whole room joins in. You do, too. Why? Sometimes we feel we are acting correctly when we do the same as others. The more people follow an idea, the better or truer we think the idea is. It’s the social proof(社会认同感) that works. The scientist Asch carried out an experiment. It shows how social proof can influence us. In a room, a man is shown Line 1, and next to it are three lines(A, B, C). A is longer, C is shorter and B is as long as Line 1. He must tell which of the three lines is as long as Line 1. When the man is alone, he gives the correct answer B．Then, five other man enter the room, and each of them gives the answer C as they were told to. Now the man changes his idea and gives the answer C． Asch got the same result many times among different subjects(实验对象). Why do we act like this? Well, in the past, following others was a way to keep away from danger. Suppose that 5000 years ago you were hunting(打猎) with friends. Suddenly, they all ran away. What would you have done? Would you have stayed? No, you would have run, too. We are descendants(后代) of those who copied others’ action. It is so deeply planted in our mind that we still use it now. Social proof has special power. The advertising industry, for example, often makes use of it. So be careful whenever a company says its product is “the most popular”. 38．At the beginning of the passage, the writer leads in the topic by ____. A．telling a story B．giving examples C．answering questions D．showing a map 39．According to Paragraph 3, the experiment by Asch shows ____. A．following others is always right B．social proof may change people’s ideas C．it’s difficult to carry out the experiment D．people can study better if they are alone 40．The underlined word “It” in Paragraph 4 refers to ____. A．running with others B．hunting with friends C．copying others’ action D．doing something different 41．According to the passage, we can infer(推断) that ____. A．it’s important to run with others anytime B．products in the advertisement are the best C．we mustn’t copy others’ action to keep safe D．we need to think twice before following others 【答案】38．B 39．B 40．C 41．D 【分析】文章大意：本文主要通过一些社会现象以及科学家做的实验，告诉大家不要盲目随波逐流。 【详解】38．细节理解题。根据第一段可知，分别讲了在公园和在音乐会上的两种现象——别人抬头看天空你也会不自觉地看天空，别人在音乐会上鼓掌，不一会儿整个屋子的人都会跟着鼓掌。通过这两个例子引出本文主题，故答案选B。 39．细节理解题。根据文中第3段中的信息It shows how social proof can influence us. 它说明了社会认同感是如何影响我们的；故答案选B。 40．词义猜测题。根据上文We are descendants(后代) of those who copied others’ action. 我们是那些复制他人行为的人的后代。结合本句It is so deeply planted in our mind它深深的植入了我们的思想中，“它”指的就是复制其他人的行为这件事；故答案选C。 41．推理判断题。根据文章我们可以推断，在追随其他人之前，我们需要再三考虑．恰巧这也是整篇文章的主旨，不要盲目随波逐流。故答案选D。 D Katy Sullivan is an actress, an athlete, and a person who refuses to use the words “no” or “can’t”. She was born without the lower half of her legs and has worn prosthetic legs (假肢) all her life. She grew up in Alabama, US and had an active childhood. She kept up with her sisters and brothers at the gym (体育馆) and in the swimming pool. She feels lucky because her family has treated her the same way they would treat anyone. When a person is born without legs, there are lots of things that are difficult to do. But Sullivan believes she can do anything. She chose to do two things that are difficult even with both legs. As a teenager, she saw a movie that made a big impression on her. Before it was over, Sullivan had made up her mind to be an actress. She earned a degree (学位) in theater and then moved to Los Angeles, where she played roles in theater, television and movies. She has a positive (积极的) view of life. She thinks that if you believe you can do something, you should go for it. So when Sullivan’s friend asked her whether she’d like to try running, she said “yes”. She was given a pair of running legs and started running. Sullivan was the first person in the world with two prosthetic legs to take up running as a competitive sport. She made it to the 100-meter finals in the 2012 London Paralympics. Sullivan’s family, friends and fans look up to her as an example of someone who has overcome (克服) difficulties and achieved her dreams. 42．What was Sullivan’s life like when she was young? A．She stayed at home most of the time. B．Her family took care of her in a special way. C．She did the same things as her sisters and brothers. D．Her sisters and brothers didn’t like to play with her. 43．The “two things” in Paragraph 3 refer to ________.

So how to keep yourself awake? 46 Taking part in class 47 They are great ways to force yourself to stay awake because they need your mind and your body to work together. To listen to your teacher well, you should try to keep eye contact, face the speaker, and pay close attention. Also, group discussions are a great time to keep yourself awake. Try to sit yourself near people who always volunteer in class and have a lot to say in discussion. Keeping your body active Walk around before or after class. 48 For example, go outside during breaks and get your blood moving to keep your body awake. Besides, you can move your body a little in your chair to help you feel refreshed. You can start by moving your hands, shoulders and neck. After you stop moving, you might feel tired again, but it can help a little bit. 49 Whether your class is in the morning, afternoon, or evening, eating three regular and balanced meals per day will help you fight tiredness. 50 But you should avoid heavy foods right before class as they can make you sleepy. By the way, especially in a class, a bottle of cold water can work right away when you might start sleeping. Come to class with a bottle of cold water. You’ll also get a little energy from the coldness every time you take a drink. A．Preparing a little bit water. B．Staying awake with food and drinks. C．Exercise tells your body it’s not time for sleep. D．Here are some creative ways you can get with. E．You’ll be close to people who are more active in class. F．The food will give you energy and help you stay awake. G．Listen actively to the lesson and discuss with your classmates. 【答案】46．D 47．G 48．C 49．B 50．F 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了在课堂上保持清醒的几种创造性方法，包括积极参与课堂活动、保持身体活跃以及通过饮食提神等。 【详解】46．根据文章第一段“So how to keep yourself awake?”以及后文列举的具体方法可知，此处需要引出下文提到的多种方法。选项D“以下是一些你可以尝试的创造性方法。”符合语境。故选D。 47．根据文章第二段“They are great ways to force yourself to stay awake because they need your mind and your body to work together.”可知，此处强调通过积极参与课堂活动来保持清醒。选项G“积极听课并与同学讨论。”符合语境。故选G。 48．根据文章第三段“Walk around before or after class.”以及“get your blood moving to keep your body awake.”可知，此处强调通过运动唤醒身体。选项C“运动告诉你的身体现在不是睡觉时间。”符合语境。故选C。 49．根据文章第四段“eating three regular and balanced meals per day will help you fight tiredness.”以及后文提到的“避免吃油腻食物”、“带一瓶冷水”等内容可知，本段主题是通过饮食和饮水保持清醒。 选项B“通过食物和饮品保持清醒。”符合语境。故选B。 50．根据文章第四段“the food will give you energy and help you stay awake.”可知，此处需补充食物对提神的作用。选项F“食物会提供能量并帮助你保持清醒。”符合语境。故选F。 第II卷（非选择题） 五、单词拼写（共13小题；每小题1分，满分13分） 第一节 根据下列句子所给汉语注释或首字母，在答题卡标有题号的横线上，写出空缺处各单词的正确形式。每空限填一词。 51．What difficulty do you have _________ (处理) with the problem of stress? 【答案】dealing 【详解】句意：处理压力问题你有什么困难吗？根据have difficulty (in) doing“做某事有困难”，deal with“处理”。故填dealing。 52．The high-speed railway ________ (连接) Guannan to Nanjing has been in use for many years. 【答案】connecting 【详解】句意：连接关南到南京的高速铁路已通车多年。connect“连接”，分析句子结构可知，此句已有谓语动词has been in，故此空应填非谓语动词，主语The high-speed railway与动词connect之间是主动关系，故此空应填现在分词作定语，故填connecting。 53．Scientists often ________ (建议) that farmers use natural ways to grow fruits. 【答案】suggest 【详解】句意：科学家经常建议农民使用自然方法种植水果。suggest“建议”，动词；根据“often”可知，主句应用一般现在时，主语“Scientists”为复数，谓语动词suggest应用原形。故填suggest。 54．He tried to do everything well so that he could catch the readers’ a________. 【答案】(a)ttention 【详解】句意：他尽力做好每一件事，以便能引起读者的注意。根据“He tried to do everything well so that he could catch the readers’ a...”及首字母可知，是为了能引起读者的注意，attention“注意力”符合语境，不可数名词。故填(a)ttention。 55．Mr. Brown p________ hiking to swimming when he was in his twenties. 【答案】(p)referred 【详解】句意：布朗先生二十多岁时喜欢徒步旅行而不喜欢游泳。根据“hiking to swimming”和首字母可推断这里表达的是“更喜欢徒步旅行而不是游泳”，prefer“更喜欢”，动词。根据“when he was in his twenties”可知此处描述过去的情况，用一般过去时，prefer的过去式是preferred。故填(p)referred。 56．If you have d________ in solving the problem, you can ask the teacher for help. 【答案】(d)ifficulty 【详解】句意：如果你在解决这个问题时有困难，你可以请老师帮忙。根据“you can ask the teacher for help.”和首字母可知，此处是指解决问题时遇到困难，have difficulty in doing sth“做某事有困难”。故填(d)ifficulty。 57．Only a few minutes later, the wood was s________ into a lovely rabbit. 【答案】(s)truck 【详解】句意：仅仅几分钟后，木头被一只可爱的兔子撞上了。根据“was”和首字母s可知应用一般过去时的被动语态，其结构为：be+过去分词。strike“撞”，过去分词是struck。故填(s)truck。 58．For our project, we can choose e________ to draw a space picture or to build a model planet. 【答案】(e)ither 【详解】句意：对于我们的项目，我们可以选择绘制一幅太空图或建造一个模型行星。根据“we can choose…to draw a space picture or to build a model planet”以及首字母提示可知，此处指“选择绘制一幅太空图或建造一个模型行星”，either…or…“要么……要么……”，固定搭配。故填(e)ither。 第二节 阅读短文，从方框中选择适当的词或短语并用其正确形式填空，使短文通顺、意思完整，每词或短语限用一次。 wear  like  reasons  similar  come up with Have you ever had a small stain (污渍) on your shirt and felt as if someone was looking at it? Or perhaps have you made a small mistake in a conversation and thought it would be talked about by others forever? Do you seem to have many 59 worries in your life? If so, you have experienced “the spotlight effect (聚光灯效应)”. The spotlight effect means we usually think that people notice our looks or actions more than they actually do. Thomas Gilovich and Kenneth Savitsky first 60 the idea. In one study, they asked some students 61 ugly T-shirts into a class. The T-shirt wearers thought half of their classmates would notice their T-shirts. However, only about 25% did. One of the 62 is that we all see ourselves as the center of our world. Sometimes we see everything through our own eyes, 63 our mistakes and successes. 【答案】59．similar 60．came up with 61．to wear 62．reasons 63．like 【导语】本文主要讲述了聚光灯效应，即我们通常认为别人比实际上更关注我们的外表或行为，并介绍了这一效应的由来和相关研究。 【详解】59．句意：在你的生活中，你似乎有很多类似的担忧吗？根据“If so, you have experienced ‘the spotlight effect (聚光灯效应)’.”及所给单词可知，此处是指类似的担忧，用similar“类似的”作定语修饰名词worries。故填similar。 60．句意：托马斯·吉洛维奇和肯尼斯·萨维茨基首次提出了这个想法。根据“the idea”及所给单词可知，此处是指提出想法，come up with“提出”，动词短语；结合语境可知，句子时态为一般过去时，谓语动词应用过去式came。故填came up with。 61．句意：在一项研究中，他们要求一些学生穿着难看的T恤去上课。根据“ugly T-shirts”及所给单词可知，此处是指穿着难看的T恤，wear“穿”，动词；ask sb. to do sth.“要求某人做某事”，动词短语，故此处应用动词不定式to wear作宾语补足语。故填to wear。 62．句意：原因之一是我们都把自己视为世界的中心。根据“One of the”及所给单词可知，此处是指原因之一，one of the+名词复数“……之一”，故此处应用名词reason“原因”的复数形式reasons。故填reasons。 63．句意：有时我们通过自己的双眼审视一切，诸如自身的过失与成就。根据前文“Sometimes we see everything through our own eyes.”以及整句语境来看，这里强调的是我们倾向于以自我为中心去看待事物，特别是关注与自身紧密相关的内容，比如自身的过失与成就。“like”在此处作为介词使用，意为“诸如”“比如”，用来引出所列举的内容，即“自身的过失与成就”。故填like。 六、短文填空（共10题；每小题1分，满分10分） 请认真阅读下面短文，在答题卡标有题号的横线上，填入适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 Many users from the US joined Xiaohongshu in January, and Chinese users jokingly asked them to pay a “cat tax (猫税)” by sharing a photo of their cats. In return, Chinese users would send the pictures of 64 (they). After looking at 65 (hundred) of cat photos, people noticed something interesting: The cats posted by Chinese users were 66 (round) than those shared by American users. But why? One key reason is the living environment. In China, many families live in tall flats. 67 (keep) their cats safe, owners usually keep them indoors. 68 , many American homes have larger living spaces for cats to climb and play. Cultural 69 (different) also play an important role. In Chinese culture, roundness means unity and perfection. In America, people value an adventurous spirit. So their cats are 70 (expect) to run around and stay active. Family influence is another reason. “My parents always show their love by 71 (make) delicious food for me, so I treat my cat in 72 same way,” explained a Chinese user from Heilongjiang. Cats from China and the US may be different 73 body shape. But, as long as they are healthy, that’s what matters most. 【答案】 64．theirs 65．hundreds 66．rounder 67．To keep 68．However 69．differences 70．expected 71．making 72．the 73．in 【导语】本文主要介绍了中国和美国的猫在体型上的差异以及造成这些差异的原因。 【详解】64．句意：作为回报，中国用户会发送他们的照片。根据“the pictures of”可知，此处指他们的照片，因此用名词性物主代词“theirs”表示。故填theirs。 65．句意：在看了数百张猫的照片后，人们注意到了一些有趣的事情。根据“of”可知，此处用“hundreds of”表示“数百张”。故填hundreds。 66．句意：中国用户发布的猫比美国用户分享的猫更圆。根据“than”可知，此处用形容词的比较级“rounder”表示“更圆的”。故填rounder。 67．句意：为了保护他们的猫的安全，主人通常会把它们关在室内。根据“their cats safe”可知，此处用动词不定式“To keep”表示目的，作状语。故填To keep。 68．句意：然而，许多美国家庭有更大的生活空间供猫攀爬和玩耍。根据“many American homes have larger living spaces for cats to climb and play.”可知，此处与前文构成转折关系，因此用副词“However”表示“然而”。故填However。 69．句意：文化差异也起着重要作用。根据“Cultural”可知，此处用名词“differences”表示“差异”，且用复数形式表示泛指。故填differences。 70．句意：所以他们的猫会被期望到处跑，保持活跃。根据“So their cats are”可知，此处是被动语态，因此用“expected”表示“被期望”。故填expected。 71．句意：我父母总是通过给我做好吃的来表达他们的爱，所以我也用同样的方式对待我的猫。根据“by”可知，此处用动名词“making”作宾语。故填making。 72．句意：我父母总是通过给我做好吃的来表达他们的爱，所以我也用同样的方式对待我的猫。根据“same way”可知，此处特指同样的方式，因此用定冠词“the”。故填the。 73．句意：来自中国和美国的猫在体型上可能有所不同。根据“body shape”可知，此处表示在体型方面，因此用介词“in”表示“在……方面”。故填in。 七、阅读表达（共3小题；74题2分，75题2分；76题3分，满分7分） 请认真阅读下面短文，用英语回答短文后的问题。 “Were the birds on the ice ducks or geese (鹅)?” Cruz, 11, and Anthony, 12, couldn’t agree.

We thought it would hold our weight. Then we stepped on it,” Cruz said. Anthony went first. He took a few steps, then... He fell through the seemingly frozen ice! Cruz rushed to help his friend. The lake “ate” him, too. Cruz managed to lift himself out of the freezing water and onto some ice. He then tried to work his way toward Anthony. But the ice didn’t hold, and he fell in again. This time, he couldn’t get out. The boys were up to their necks in icy water and quickly losing feeling in their arms and legs. Cruz had a sense that he was going to die. Anthony’s older sister had seen all this and started shouting for help. John Lavin, a neighbor driving nearby, heard her. He quickly pulled over. He caught a nearby float (浮板), kicked off his shoes. and ran into the water, clearing his way through the ice with his free hand. “It was kind of a ‘Hulk smash’.” Lavin later joked. Lavin made his way to pull the boys back to land. They were taken to the hospital immediately. The doctor said their five-minute stay in the water made their body temperature drop nearly ten degrees. Luckily, the boys got well soon. They admire their fearless neighbor just as Hulk, one of the Marvel Superheroes. 74．In which season did the story happen? 75．Why did Cruz and Anthony walk onto the frozen lake? 76．Would you take a risk when you try to find out the truth?

At one station, a kind lady told me that big stations wouldn’t want an inexperienced person and suggested that I try my luck at smaller stations. Following her 24 , I went back to Dixon, where I grew up. There were no radio-announcing jobs in Dixon, and my father said a newly-opened store wanted a local sportsman to work for it. I asked for the job, but I was 25 again. “Everything happens for the best,” Mom 26 me. Dad offered me the car to look for a job. I tried WOC Radio in Davenport, Iowa.

D．Invite friends and plan offline activities. B Years ago，my father gave me a rule that still guides me："Take one extra minute to do it right." Psychologists（心理学家） often refer to this as"mindful decision﹣making，"a process of stopping to consider the results of our actions before we act.My father's "extra﹣minute"rule is a simple but powerful example of this idea，encouraging me to slow down and make thoughtful choices to avoid mistakes and regrets. This rule has shaped my life in many ways.When my children were small，I slid hot drinks out of reach and covered sharp table corners﹣tiny steps that often prevented accidents we would later regret. But the benefits of the extra﹣minute rule go beyond safety.It also strengthens relationships.People often wish they had said"I love you"or"I'm sorry"while they still had the chance.One Saturday morning，my father already in his eighties planned to see an eye doctor near my office.At first，I told him I would stay home and enjoy the holiday.Then I paused and reminded myself，"He's getting older，and every moment we share counts".I changed my plan，drove across town，and sat beside him in the clinic.That single hour has become one of my most cherished memories. As for me，the extra﹣minute rule is simple but powerful.Whenever I finish a task﹣or before I speak or press"send"—I stop and ask myself two questions："Is it safe？Is it kind？"Those seconds have rescued me more times than I can count. For safety，the benefits are immediate.Before leaving the house，I check that the stove is off，candles are out and windows are locked.One morning，the pause saved me：I smelled gas under a pot I had forgotten to turn off.A friend once flooded his flat by leaving a tap running；he now says he wishes he had taken the same minute. Kindness grows from the pause as well.Recently I wrote an angry message to a workmate who hadn't answered our project note.Just before sending，I paused，softened my words and asked if everything was okay.Hours later，she explained she'd faced a family emergency and hadn't seen her phone all day.Without that minute，our friendship—and our project might have cracked. Life will never be perfect，and mistakes will still happen.Yet most regrets begin small﹣a careless word，an unchecked switch，or a hurried choice.An extra minute cannot change the past，but it can shape a safer，kinder future. So next time you hurry out the door，end a conversation，or are about to press"send，"give yourself that one﹣minute pause.It may be the briefest minute of your day，but it could spare you the saddest words in English："if only." 34 Why did the author drive across town that Saturday morning？ 　 　 A.To relax at home and enjoy a peaceful holiday. B.To attend her own scheduled eye check﹣up. C.To keep her elderly father company at a clinic. D.To finish important project work at her office. 35 In Paragraph 7，the underlined word"cracked"most probably means 　 　 . A.broken B.improved C.started D.slowed 36 According to the"extra﹣minute"rule，what should people do？ 　 　 A.Leave a hot iron on while stepping out. B.Choose words carefully before replying. C.Wait a minute so that the dish tastes better. D.Start the car without checking everyone is seated. 37 Which of the following would be the best title for this passage？ 　 A.A Father's Safety Tip B.Two Saddest Words，"If Only" C.The Value of Taking a Moment D.Pausing Builds Better Relationships C In the park, you see a group of people, all looking up at the sky. Without thinking about it, you look upwards, too. Why? In the concert, someone begins to clap and suddenly the whole room joins in. You do, too. Why? Sometimes we feel we are acting correctly when we do the same as others. The more people follow an idea, the better or truer we think the idea is. It’s the social proof(社会认同感) that works. The scientist Asch carried out an experiment. It shows how social proof can influence us. In a room, a man is shown Line 1, and next to it are three lines(A, B, C).

We thought it would hold our weight. Then we stepped on it,” Cruz said. Anthony went first. He took a few steps, then... He fell through the seemingly frozen ice! Cruz rushed to help his friend. The lake “ate” him, too. Cruz managed to lift himself out of the freezing water and onto some ice. He then tried to work his way toward Anthony. But the ice didn’t hold, and he fell in again. This time, he couldn’t get out. The boys were up to their necks in icy water and quickly losing feeling in their arms and legs. Cruz had a sense that he was going to die. Anthony’s older sister had seen all this and started shouting for help. John Lavin, a neighbor driving nearby, heard her. He quickly pulled over. He caught a nearby float (浮板), kicked off his shoes. and ran into the water, clearing his way through the ice with his free hand. “It was kind of a ‘Hulk smash’.” Lavin later joked. Lavin made his way to pull the boys back to land. They were taken to the hospital immediately. The doctor said their five-minute stay in the water made their body temperature drop nearly ten degrees.
