Ⅴ阅读理解(每小题2.5分,共10分)
As psychologists have long recognised, we humans cope
with negative things by employing psychological defences. These
often take the form of self-serving biases (偏见), that is, we
tend to owe other people's successes to good luck, while seeing
our own good results as a sign of born talent. Another example
is the “better-than-average” effect, in which case we think we're
better than most others at various skills from driving to maths.

56
Getting defensive when we're criticised, or when we make a
mistake, is yet another of these self-protective mechanisms
(机制). As the politicians so often say “mistakes were made, but
not by me”.
So, when you give someone negative feedback (反馈) or
you criticise them or their beliefs, you are—perhaps
unconsciously—threatening their psychological defences. By
forcing them to recognise how they've mistaken things, you're
likely to trigger extremely uncomfortable social emotions, such
1
2
3
4
课 后 习 题
57
as shame, guilt or embarrassment, or scary thoughts of rejection
or loss of status. A way for people to avoid these
uncomfortable feelings and thoughts is to get defensive, to deny
they did anything wrong, or to engage in the mental
gymnastics needed to save face.
Support for the social and moral aspects of defensiveness
comes from a study by psychologists at Australia's Flinders
University in 2020. The researchers showed that volunteers'
defensiveness (about past mistakes or possible moral guilt) was
1
2
3
4
课 后 习 题
strengthened if they'd just had an experience of being socially
rejected—thus making them more mentally weak. Contrarily, the
volunteers acted less defensively if they'd had an earlier
opportunity to demonstrate their moral values, which would
have made them feel more secure about their moral standing.
One practical point from all this is that when you're giving
negative feedback, it pays to consider the effect it may have on
the other person's self-confidence. Therefore, focus your criticism
on what they did wrong, not on their personality or character.
1

4
课 后 习 题
You can also take some of the sting out by concentrating on
how their mistake can be fixed or how they can improve next
time. That way they're less likely to take things so personally.

down a busy street, you can't help but get distracted by the

Ⅸ读后续写(25分)
阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成
一篇完整的短文。
It was a beautiful sunny day when the moving van pulled
onto the tree-lined street. Mark and Mindy stepped out of the
van and looked at their new home with pride. They had both
been saving for a long time to purchase their first house
together and were very excited to go on a new venture.
课 后 习 题
93
Within an hour they had unloaded a number of boxes and
were pleased with their progress. The sky had begun to darken
slightly, but the weather was still pleasant. Then Mindy heard
it—even felt it. There was a large clap of thunder and then a
bolt of lightning. Mindy and Mark immediately froze and looked
at each other, and then looked at the boxes scattered on their
lawn. They hastily raced to get their belongings indoors, but not
before getting caught in heavy rain.
课 后 习 题
94
The couple stood in their living room, wet from head to
toe, surrounded by what were now very wet boxes. Then, Mark
noticed a pool of water in the hallway.
He went to inspect and found that there was water
dripping from the ceiling. “We can have someone fix it,” Mindy
said. “I'll grab a bucket to catch the water for now.”
A moment later, Mark heard a scream and raced into the
kitchen just in time to see a mouse running across the floor.
Mindy was frozen with fright.

95
“Don't worry. We can take care of that!” Mark said, trying
to sound as reassuring (安心的) as possible. “Let's go unpack
some of the boxes. That will make us feel better.”
Mark and Mindy made their way to the living room, but
when they opened a box holding their kitchen utensils (器皿)
and dishes, they found that all of their plates, bowls and cups
were broken. They looked at each other in dismay.
“What do we do now?” Mindy asked.

Their first day in their new home was not turning out to
be the joyous occasion they had expected. Just then, they both
heard a noise. There was a knock at the door.

【思路点拨】本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了Mark和Mindy搬入新
家,突然变天下雨,二人跑进房子,发现天花板滴水,厨房有老鼠,
而且他们的餐具都碎了,二人很沮丧,就在二人认为在新家的第一
天并不是他们所期望的那种欢乐的日子时他们的邻居Tom出现了,
Tom不仅给他们带来了饼干和及时的帮助,同时带来了他们对生活
的希望。

【详解】
1. 段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“他们慢慢地打开门,发现一只小猫在他们眼
前。”可知,第一段可描写Mark和Mindy见到小猫旁边的老人之后,
老人的自我介绍以及老人对于他们的帮助以及Mark和Mindy对于老
人的感激。
②由第二段首句内容“吱吱声来自阁楼。”可知,第二段可描写Mindy
上楼见到小猫之后的反应及Tom告诉了Mark和Mindy这只猫的来历
以及Mark和Mindy知道这一切之后的反应。

former owner of the house, used to feed a cat to drive out the
mice,” smiled Tom. “It was James who helped me (强调句型)
when I was helpless (时间状语从句), just as you are now
