Adom Appiah, is not your typical High School Junior. He has taken his volunteerism to a whole new level by starting a nonprofit charity organization called Ball4Good.
Amazingly, this innovative organization was a result of Adom’s 7th grade school assignment. At age 12, his history teacher, Mrs. Kelsea Turner, at Spartanburg Day School, had challenged her students to dedicate 20% of their class time to a service project. She suggested that they research a community need and then work independently on finding a solution. Adom was inspired.
Adom had great passion for playing sports as a soccer and basketball player. So, he naturally thought of combining sports and community support into an athletics-oriented service project. His idea was to invite athletes, leaders and celebrities to play ball games to raise money for local charities.
Ball4Good held its first Celebrity Basketball Game in 2017. He used donations received on his 13th birthday as seed money for the event. It was a huge success and raised over $70,000 for 13 local charities.
Then, Adom’s idea has transformed into a movement that is helping communities through various ways such as celebrity sport events, charity drives and fundraising. It donates raised funds to various causes affecting children, such as autism, homelessness, abuse and cancer.
If all these accomplishments about Ball4Good were not enough, the teen has also authored three motivational children’s books to inspire students to change the world and bounce back from failures. Donations from book sales have supported several charitable causes. In addition, he won a National Award (Gloria Barron for Young Heroes, 2019) that comes with a $10,000 prize for his public service efforts. Having multiple projects has not slowed Adom down, as he is currently hosting his own show called Kids Changing the World on TV.
“I try to have kids involved in every step of the way, so they can figure out how things work in the business and philanthropist world,” Adom said. He wants people to know that success starts with believing in yourself. His goal is to expand Ball4Good’s reach. He believes that by encouraging others to get involved, he’s multiplying the impact of Ball4Good.
24. What inspired Adom Appiah to start Ball4Good?
A. Passion for sports and support from a community.
B. A school assignment given by his history teacher.
C. His experiences of being a soccer and basketball player.
D. Athletes, leaders and celebrities he invited to play games.
25. According to the passage, we can learn that Ball4Good .
A. aims to promote community sports
B. held its first activity with Adom’s own savings
C. helps communities simply through celebrity sport events
D. uses raised money to help children in various difficulties
26. Which of the following can best describe Adom Appiah?
A. Kind and humorous. B. Generous and patient.
C. Innovative and inspiring. D. Hardworking and reliable.

The facts of climate change are widely reported. It is noted that with a 2℃ increase in global temperatures as compared with a 1.5℃ increase, about 61 million more people living in urban areas around the world will be exposed to severe drought(干旱). The problem with communicating these numbers, however, is that math anxiety — the experience of tension, fear or worry when facing mathematical problems — and the inability to understand and employ numerical concepts — are both quite common.
Despite high rates of innumeracy (数学盲), there are reasons to think that people may not ignore the information when they receive numbers. First, multiple past studies show that people often prefer getting numerical details over unclear description or purely verbal communication People also trust messages provided by medical professionals or journalists more when that communication includes numbers than when it does not. The use of specific numbers signals professionalism to readers.
But trade-offs exist. Given people’s anxiety about math and level of mathematical ability, there is an upper limit when communicating these kinds of details. In past research, it was found that people find numbers helpful, so long as there aren’t too many of them. No hard-and-fast rule suggests how many is too many — it depends on the complexity of the topic, people’s familiarity with the subject and their overall numeracy. Communicators therefore need to know and attend to their audience: if a speaker sees someone looking bored, for example, it’s a sign to back off on the numbers.
In addition to the possibility of being overloaded by numbers, their persuasive power could have consequences that communicators need to consider. Based on the most recent findings, more negative feelings about the posts containing numeric consequences of climate change are reported. To be clear, this doesn’t reflect math anxiety. Instead, these posts resulted in negative emotions because the numerically precise messages were stronger in conveying the disastrous consequences of climate change. If you can suggest actions that people feel they can carry through, that could ease the negative feelings that arise when they consider climate change’s consequences.
So whether you’re an environmentalist seeking to communicate more effectively over social media or looking for strategies to persuade family over the dinner table, there are a few lessons here. Find the key numerical data and share that. Think strategically about data presentation. When talking about climate change, include some proposed action. Given that past work suggests that sharing numbers builds trust, your readers or listeners may be more likely to follow your recommendations. When used wisely, numbers can help transform anxiety into action, which could help turn the tide in our fight against climate change.
27. What role do numbers play when introduced into professional communication?
A. They can arouse people’s anxiety about math. B. They leave the audience even more confused.
C. They help make the message more reliable. D. They don’t really change how people feel.
28. What can be inferred from the passage?
A. The use of numbers in communication calls for caution.
B. The more numbers used, the more persuasive the message.
C. Numerically precise messages bring negative outcomes.
D. The audience’s response to numbers should be prioritized.
29. According to the passage, which of the following is an effective climate message?
A. Sea level rise: a ticking time bomb for coastal cities! B. Cycle 5 miles daily, save 50% on carbon footprint!
C. 50% of species lost: a warning from climate change! D. Plant more trees today, enjoy fresher air tomorrow!
30. What is the best title for this passage?
A. Numbers: Origin of tension about climate change. B. Numbers: Reason for high levels of math anxiety.
C. Numbers: Cause of boredom in public speaking. D. Numbers: Aid in fighting environmental issues.

One evening, at home. You’re sitting comfortably on the sofa, watching your favorite TV show. An ad comes up, showing a burger in its full glory and one person enjoying it. You think to yourself that your diet is about to take a bit. But we beg to differ.
In a series of studies, we found advertisements showing people eating junk food prompted people on a diet to eat less. While this may seem counterintuitive (反直觉的), these findings are in line with previous research on mental imagery.
Recent studies show merely imagining ourselves carrying out actions or experiencing emotions activates similar neural networks(神经网络)to those linked with their actual performance or experience.
The images we are exposed to throughout our lives hold the power to shape our experiences to a remarkable degree. According to neuroimage studies, the mere sight of someone being hit by a hammer will fire up the neural networks in our brain that are associated with pain. As a result, these images will trigger (引发) emotions and behavior consistent with feelings of pain.
Such effects also extend to food consumption. The field of consumption imagery refers to rich images of food consumption — for example, an ad showing the close-up of a pizza and someone eating it. Some studies have even indicated consumption imagery could cause people to wrongly recall having eaten the food on display. This is important because simply thinking that we have eaten something can make us feel full.
We invited 132 dieting students at our lab to watch an ad. Half of them saw an M&M’s advertisement full of consumption imagery: sweets, colors, and a person eating them. The other half of the students saw an ad with two animated (动画的) M&M’s at a supermarket cash register, with no consumption imagery.
We then gave each student a 70g cup of M&M’s and asked them to eat to their heart’s content. Among the students, those who saw the M&M’s advertisement containing consumption imagery ate fewer sweets than those who saw the ad without.
In the next study, we tested whether we could use these findings to promote healthy eating. We designed four ads and each participant was randomly selected to view one of the four ads.
People who viewed the ad requiring them to imagine themselves wolfing down the French fries indicated a desire to eat fewer chips than those who were exposed to the French fries ad without consumption imagery.
Those who had imagined themselves eating an apple were more likely to succumb to the potato chips than those who had visualized themselves eating the French fries.
These results go against the grain of current public practices that aim to promote healthy eating by relying on images of nutritious foods. However, our research indicates that healthy eating campaigns should include the consumption of unhealthy food.
31. Thinking that we have eaten something can make us feel full because ___________.
A. the images hold the power to increase the sharpness of our senses
B. it activates neural networks similar to those linked with actual eating
C. the consumption imagery makes us recall having eaten the food on display
D. it is in line with the previous research into how imagery affects eating habits
32. What conclusion can we draw from the experiment with M&M chocolates?
A. Animated images in the advertisement may discourage consumption.
B. The more inviting the food in the ad is, the more the viewers will eat.
C. Advertisements with consumption imagery prompt viewers to eat less.
D. Where we see the advertisement is more important than what we see in it.
33. The phrase “succumb to”(in paragraph 10)is closest in meaning to ___________.
A. give way to B. be addicted to
C. face up to D. be resistant to
34. Which of the following practices contributes to developing healthy eating habits?
A. Wolfing down junk food. B. Imagining eating an apple a day.
C. Saying no to grain. D. Watching others eating junk food.

【详情解析】
31. 细节理解题。根据第三段“Recent studies show merely imagining ourselves carrying out actions or experiencing emotions activates similar neural networks(神经网络)to those linked with their actual performance or experience.(最新研究表明,仅仅在脑海里想象自己执行某个动作或体验某种情绪,就能激活与实际执行或体验时相同的神经网络。换言之,“脑补”也能产生真实效果)”及第五段“Such effects also extend to food consumption. The field of consumption imagery refers to rich images of food consumption—for example, an ad showing the close-up of a pizza and someone eating it. Some studies have even indicated consumption imagery could cause people to wrongly recall having eaten the food on display.(这种效应也延伸到进食领域。“消费意象”指那些生动呈现食物被吃下的画面——比如特写披萨和食客的广告。有研究甚至发现,这类画面会让人错误地“回忆”起自己吃过展示的食物)”可知,想到我们吃过某种食物就会有饱腹感是因为想象的画面激活了某些神经系统,类似于真实吃过这种食物所刺激到的神经系统。故选B项。
32. 推理判断题。根据第七段“We then gave each student a 70g cup of M&M’s and asked them to eat to their heart’s content. Among the students, those who saw the M&M’s advertisement containing consumption imagery ate fewer sweets than those who saw the ad without.(随后,我们给每位学生发一份70克的M&M’s,让他们随意吃。结果,看到“消费意象”广告的学生比没看到的人少吃了不少糖果)”及倒数第二段“Those who had imagined themselves eating an apple were more likely to succumb to the potato chips than those who had visualized themselves eating the French fries. (那些被要求“想象自己狼吞虎咽吃薯条”的人,相比只看薯条图片的人,表达了更少的吃薯片欲望。而想象自己吃苹果的人,反而比想象吃薯条的人更容易向薯片succumb to)”可知,带有消费意象的广告会促使观众少吃。故选C项。
33. 词句猜测题。根据上文“Those who had imagined themselves eating an apple were more likely to(那些想象自己在吃苹果的人)”及划线词后“the potato chips than those who had visualized themselves eating the French fries.(比想象自己在吃薯条的人更有可能…薯片)”并参考第七段“We then gave each student a 70g cup of M&M’s and asked them to eat to their heart’s content. Among the students, those who saw the M&M’s advertisement containing consumption imagery ate fewer sweets than those who saw the ad without.(随后,我们给每位学生发一份70克的M&M's,让他们随意吃。结果,看到“消费意象”广告的学生比没看到的人少吃了不少糖果)”可知,想象自己吃苹果的人,觉得自己吃过苹果,不是很想吃苹果,而更想吃薯片,那些想象自己吃过薯片的人就不是特别的想吃薯片了。由此可知,该短语的意思是“屈服于”。故选A项。
34. 推理判断题。根据倒数第三段“People who viewed the ad requiring them to imagine themselves wolfing down the French fries indicated a desire to eat fewer chips than those who were exposed to the French fries ad without consumption imagery.(那些观看了要求他们想象自己吞下薯条的广告的人比那些没有看到薯条广告的人想吃的薯条要少)”及最后一段“However, our research indicates that healthy eating campaigns should include the consumption of unhealthy food.(然而,我们的研究表明,健康饮食运动应该包括食用不健康食品)”可知,观看别人吃垃圾食品会想象自己也吃了垃圾食品,就会更少地吃这种垃圾食品,这会促进健康饮食习惯的培养,少吃垃圾食品。故选D项。
第二节 (共5小题;每小题2分,共10分)
根据短文内容,从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。
(新情境)Much of the work in today’s world is accomplished(完成) in teams. Most people believe the best way to build a great team is to gather a group of the most talented individuals.____35____Companies spend millions hiring top business people. Is their money well spent?
____36____They focused on football, basketball and baseball. The results are mixed. For football and basketball, adding talented players to a team proves a good method, but only up to the point where 70% of the players are top talent; above that level, the team’s performance begins to decline. Interestingly, this trend isn’t evident in baseball, where additional individual talent keeps improving the team’s performance.
To explain this phenomenon, the researchers explored the degree to which a good performance by a team requires its members to coordinate(协调) their actions. ____37____In baseball, the performance of individual players is less dependent on teammates. They conclude that when task interdependence is high, team performance will suffer when there is too much talent, while individual talent will have positive effects on team performance when task interdependence is lower. If a basketball star is, for example, trying to gain a high personal point total, he may take a shot himself when it would be better to pass the ball to a teammate, affecting the team’s performance. Young children learning to play team sports are often told, “There is no I in TEAM.” ____38____
Another possibility is that when there is a lot of talent on a team, some players may make less effort. Just as in a game of tug-of-war(拔河比赛), whenever a person is added, everyone else pulls the rope with less force.
_____39_____ An A-team may require a balance--not just A players, but a few generous B players as well.
A. It’s not a simple matter to determine the nature of talent.
B. Stars apparently do not follow this basic principle of sportsmanship.
C. Several recent studies examined the role of talent in the sports world.
D. Sports team owners spend millions of dollars attracting top talent.
E. The group interaction and its effect drew the researchers’ attention.
F. This task interdependence distinguishes baseball from football and basketball.
G. Building up a dream team is more complex than simply hiring the best talent.

35. D 36. C 37. F 38. B 39. G
【语篇解读】
本文是一篇说明文。文章探讨了组建优秀团队的关键因素。研究表明,过度强调个人天赋未必最优,因为任务间高度依赖时,过多顶尖人才反而会降低团队表现,而适度天赋配合良好协作效果更佳。
【详情解析】
35. 上文“Most people believe the best way to build a great team is to gather a group of the most talented individuals.(大多数人认为,建立一个伟大团队的最佳方法是聚集一群最有才华的人。)”提出了人们普遍认为组建优秀团队的方法是聚集有才华的人这一观点;下文“Companies spend millions hiring top business people.(公司花费数百万雇佣顶级商业人才。)”进一步说明了公司在雇佣人才方面的投入。D选项“Sports team owners spend millions of dollars attracting top talent.(运动队老板花费数百万美元吸引顶级人才。)”与上下文内容紧密相连,举例强调为组建优秀团队在人才方面的投入,符合题意。故选D。
36. 下文“They focused on football, basketball and baseball. The results are mixed.(他们专注于足球、篮球和棒球。结果好坏参半。)”说明有研究针对体育领域展开并得出了不同结果。C选项“Several recent studies examined the role of talent in the sports world.(最近几项研究考察了人才在体育界的作用。)”引出了下文关于体育领域研究的话题;同时根据前文“ Is their money well spent?(他们的钱花得值吗?)”提出运动队老板花数百万美元吸引人才,不确定该钱花的是否值得,选项C指出通过最近几项研究考查了人才在体育界的作用,对该问题进行回答,后文就此展开了不同的结果,符合题意。故选C。
37. 上文“To explain this phenomenon, the researchers explored the degree to which a good performance by a team requires its members to coordinate their actions.(为了解释这一现象,研究人员探究了一个团队的良好表现需要其成员协调行动的程度。)”提出了研究人员探究的方向;下文“In baseball, the performance of individual players is less dependent on teammates.(在棒球中,个别球员的表现较少依赖队友。)”将棒球与前文提到的足球和篮球进行对比。F选项“This task interdependence distinguishes baseball from football and basketball.(这种任务相互依赖性将棒球与足球和篮球区分开来。)”起到了承上启下的作用,解释了上文探究的内容,同时引出了下文对棒球与足球、篮球不同的阐述,符合题意。故选F。
38. 上文“Young children learning to play team sports are often told, ‘There is no I in TEAM.’(学习团队运动的小孩子经常被告知:‘团队中没有我。’)”强调了团队运动中不应以自我为中心;下文“Another possibility is that when there is a lot of talent on a team, some players may make less effort.(另一种可能性是,当一个团队中有很多人才时,一些球员可能会不那么努力。)”提出了团队中存在的一种问题。B选项“Stars apparently do not follow this basic principle of sportsmanship.(明星显然不遵循这种体育精神的基本原则。)”承接上文,指出明星球员不遵循“团队中没有我”这一原则,同时与下文提到的团队中球员的问题相呼应,符合题意。故选B。
39. 下文“An A-team may require a balance--not just A players, but a few generous B players as well.( 一个精英团队需要做到平衡——不仅要有顶尖的“A”级别选手,还需要配备一些大方的“B”级别选手。)”说明组建优秀团队不是只靠一流人才,还需要其他方面的平衡。G选项“Building up a dream team is more complex than simply hiring the best talent.(组建一个梦之队比简单地雇佣最好的人才要复杂得多。)”总结了全文,强调组建优秀团队不是简单雇佣人才,而是更复杂的过程,符合题意。故选G。

(新语境)A Journey of Rediscovery in the Scottish Highlands
The morning mist hung low over the green hills as our train slowly entered the small village of Glenfinnan. I had come to Scotland with a carefully made plan for my summer trip. My list included visiting the famous Loch Ness, walking through the streets of Edinburgh, and taking photos of the beautiful Glenfinnan Viaduct. After a busy final year in school, I hoped this trip would help me relax and clear my mind.
However, the most wonderful travel experiences often come when we least expect them. On my second morning, while hiking to a popular viewpoint, I took a wrong turn and found myself on a quiet path. Curious about where it would lead, I followed the sound of running water and soon discovered a small family-owned woolen mill hidden in the valley.
The owner, Mrs. Campbell, welcomed me warmly into her workshop. For the next two hours, she patiently showed me how they transformed local sheep’s wool into beautiful patterned cloth using traditional methods. She shared fascinating stories about her family’s history in the village and their deep connection to the land. Though I couldn’t understand all her words because of her strong accent, her kindness needed no translation.
Later, I did visit all the famous places on my list, but that unexpected afternoon at the woolen mill remained the most precious memory of my trip. It taught me that while it’s good to have a plan, the real magic of travel lies in those unplanned moments when we truly connect with a place and its people. Sometimes, getting lost can help us find what we didn’t know we were looking for.
40. Where did the author’s journey take place?
_____________________________________________
41. What two things did Mrs. Campbell show or tell the author?
_____________________________________________
42. Read the following statement, underline the false part of it and explain the reason.
The author visited the woolen mill after he had already seen all the famous places on his travel list.
_____________________________________________
43. Do you prefer carefully planned trips or unplanned travel? Why?
_____________________________________________
【参考答案】
40. In Scotland.
41. Mrs. Campbell showed the author how they transformed local sheep’s wool into beautiful patterned cloth using traditional methods and shared fascinating stories about her family’s history in the village and their deep connection to the land.
42. The author visited the woolen mill after he had already seen all the famous places on his travel list;The author visited the woolen mill before seeing all the famous places.
43. I prefer carefully planned trips because they allow me to make the most of my time and ensure that I see all the attractions I want to see.
【语篇解读】
本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者在苏格兰高地的一次旅行经历,作者虽制定了详尽计划,但一次偶然迷路却发现了毛纺厂,这次意外邂逅成为旅行中最珍贵的记忆,让作者领悟到旅行真谛在于不期而遇的际遇。
【详情解析】
40. 考查细节理解。根据第一段中“I had come to Scotland with a carefully made plan for my summer trip.(我来到苏格兰时,已经为这次夏季旅行制定了详尽的计划。)”可知,作者的这段旅程是发生在苏格兰。故答案为In Scotland。
41. 考查细节理解。根据第三段中“The owner, Mrs. Campbell, welcomed me warmly into her workshop. For the next two hours, she patiently showed me how they transformed local sheep’s wool into beautiful patterned cloth using traditional methods. She shared fascinating stories about her family’s history in the village and their deep connection to the land. (店主Campbell夫人热情地把我迎进她的工作室。接下来的两个小时里,她耐心地向我演示他们是如何运用传统工艺将当地的绵羊羊毛加工成精美图案的布料的。她还讲述了她家族在村里的历史以及他们与这片土地的深厚联系。)”可知,Campbell夫人展示了如何运用传统工艺将当地的绵羊羊毛加工成精美图案的布料以及讲述了家族在村里的历史以及他们与这片土地的深厚联系。故答案为Mrs. Campbell showed the author how they transformed local sheep’s wool into beautiful patterned cloth using traditional methods and shared fascinating stories about her family’s history in the village and their deep connection to the land.
42. 考查推理判断。根据最后一段中“Later, I did visit all the famous places on my list, but that unexpected afternoon at the woolen mill remained the most precious memory of my trip. (后来,我确实参观了清单上所有的著名景点,但那个在毛纺厂度过的意外下午,却成了我这次旅行中最珍贵的回忆。)”可知,作者参观的毛纺厂是清单上的著名景点,由此表明作者在游览完所有著名景点之前,先去了那家毛纺厂。题干中“The author visited the woolen mill after he had already seen all the famous places on his travel list.(作者在完成了行程中所有著名景点的参观之后,又去了那家毛纺厂。)”错误的部分是“after he had already seen all the famous places on his travel list.(在他已经游览了旅行清单上所有著名景点之后。)”。故答案为:The author visited the woolen mill after he had already seen all the famous places on his travel list;The author visited the woolen mill before seeing all the famous places.
43. 开放性试题。根据题干“Do you prefer carefully planned trips or unplanned travel? Why?(你更喜欢精心安排的旅行还是随性随意的出行呢?为什么?)”可知,本题为开放性试题,回答合理即可。本人认为:我更倾向于精心规划的旅行,因为这样能让我充分利用时间,并确保能看到所有想看的景点。故答案为:I prefer carefully planned trips because they allow me to make the most of my time and ensure that I see all the attractions I want to see.

Adom Appiah, is not your typical High School Junior. He has taken his volunteerism to a whole new level by starting a nonprofit charity organization called Ball4Good.
Amazingly, this innovative organization was a result of Adom’s 7th grade school assignment. At age 12, his history teacher, Mrs. Kelsea Turner, at Spartanburg Day School, had challenged her students to dedicate 20% of their class time to a service project. She suggested that they research a community need and then work independently on finding a solution. Adom was inspired.
Adom had great passion for playing sports as a soccer and basketball player. So, he naturally thought of combining sports and community support into an athletics-oriented service project. His idea was to invite athletes, leaders and celebrities to play ball games to raise money for local charities.
Ball4Good held its first Celebrity Basketball Game in 2017. He used donations received on his 13th birthday as seed money for the event. It was a huge success and raised over $70,000 for 13 local charities.
Then, Adom’s idea has transformed into a movement that is helping communities through various ways such as celebrity sport events, charity drives and fundraising. It donates raised funds to various causes affecting children, such as autism, homelessness, abuse and cancer.
If all these accomplishments about Ball4Good were not enough, the teen has also authored three motivational children’s books to inspire students to change the world and bounce back from failures. Donations from book sales have supported several charitable causes. In addition, he won a National Award (Gloria Barron for Young Heroes, 2019) that comes with a $10,000 prize for his public service efforts. Having multiple projects has not slowed Adom down, as he is currently hosting his own show called Kids Changing the World on TV.
“I try to have kids involved in every step of the way, so they can figure out how things work in the business and philanthropist world,” Adom said. He wants people to know that success starts with believing in yourself. His goal is to expand Ball4Good’s reach. He believes that by encouraging others to get involved, he’s multiplying the impact of Ball4Good.
24. What inspired Adom Appiah to start Ball4Good?
A. Passion for sports and support from a community.
B. A school assignment given by his history teacher.
C. His experiences of being a soccer and basketball player.
D. Athletes, leaders and celebrities he invited to play games.
25. According to the passage, we can learn that Ball4Good .
A. aims to promote community sports
B. held its first activity with Adom’s own savings
C. helps communities simply through celebrity sport events
D. uses raised money to help children in various difficulties
26. Which of the following can best describe Adom Appiah?
A. Kind and humorous. B. Generous and patient.
C. Innovative and inspiring. D. Hardworking and reliable.

The facts of climate change are widely reported. It is noted that with a 2℃ increase in global temperatures as compared with a 1.5℃ increase, about 61 million more people living in urban areas around the world will be exposed to severe drought(干旱). The problem with communicating these numbers, however, is that math anxiety — the experience of tension, fear or worry when facing mathematical problems — and the inability to understand and employ numerical concepts — are both quite common.
Despite high rates of innumeracy (数学盲), there are reasons to think that people may not ignore the information when they receive numbers. First, multiple past studies show that people often prefer getting numerical details over unclear description or purely verbal communication People also trust messages provided by medical professionals or journalists more when that communication includes numbers than when it does not. The use of specific numbers signals professionalism to readers.
But trade-offs exist. Given people’s anxiety about math and level of mathematical ability, there is an upper limit when communicating these kinds of details. In past research, it was found that people find numbers helpful, so long as there aren’t too many of them. No hard-and-fast rule suggests how many is too many — it depends on the complexity of the topic, people’s familiarity with the subject and their overall numeracy. Communicators therefore need to know and attend to their audience: if a speaker sees someone looking bored, for example, it’s a sign to back off on the numbers.
In addition to the possibility of being overloaded by numbers, their persuasive power could have consequences that communicators need to consider. Based on the most recent findings, more negative feelings about the posts containing numeric consequences of climate change are reported. To be clear, this doesn’t reflect math anxiety. Instead, these posts resulted in negative emotions because the numerically precise messages were stronger in conveying the disastrous consequences of climate change. If you can suggest actions that people feel they can carry through, that could ease the negative feelings that arise when they consider climate change’s consequences.
So whether you’re an environmentalist seeking to communicate more effectively over social media or looking for strategies to persuade family over the dinner table, there are a few lessons here. Find the key numerical data and share that. Think strategically about data presentation. When talking about climate change, include some proposed action. Given that past work suggests that sharing numbers builds trust, your readers or listeners may be more likely to follow your recommendations. When used wisely, numbers can help transform anxiety into action, which could help turn the tide in our fight against climate change.
27. What role do numbers play when introduced into professional communication?
A. They can arouse people’s anxiety about math. B. They leave the audience even more confused.
C. They help make the message more reliable. D. They don’t really change how people feel.
28. What can be inferred from the passage?
A. The use of numbers in communication calls for caution.
B. The more numbers used, the more persuasive the message.
C. Numerically precise messages bring negative outcomes.
D. The audience’s response to numbers should be prioritized.
29. According to the passage, which of the following is an effective climate message?
A. Sea level rise: a ticking time bomb for coastal cities! B. Cycle 5 miles daily, save 50% on carbon footprint!
C. 50% of species lost: a warning from climate change! D. Plant more trees today, enjoy fresher air tomorrow!
30. What is the best title for this passage?
A. Numbers: Origin of tension about climate change. B. Numbers: Reason for high levels of math anxiety.
C. Numbers: Cause of boredom in public speaking. D. Numbers: Aid in fighting environmental issues.
D(社会热点)
One evening, at home. You’re sitting comfortably on the sofa, watching your favorite TV show. An ad comes up, showing a burger in its full glory and one person enjoying it. You think to yourself that your diet is about to take a bit. But we beg to differ.
In a series of studies, we found advertisements showing people eating junk food prompted people on a diet to eat less. While this may seem counterintuitive (反直觉的), these findings are in line with previous research on mental imagery.
Recent studies show merely imagining ourselves carrying out actions or experiencing emotions activates similar neural networks(神经网络)to those linked with their actual performance or experience.
The images we are exposed to throughout our lives hold the power to shape our experiences to a remarkable degree. According to neuroimage studies, the mere sight of someone being hit by a hammer will fire up the neural networks in our brain that are associated with pain. As a result, these images will trigger (引发) emotions and behavior consistent with feelings of pain.
Such effects also extend to food consumption. The field of consumption imagery refers to rich images of food consumption — for example, an ad showing the close-up of a pizza and someone eating it. Some studies have even indicated consumption imagery could cause people to wrongly recall having eaten the food on display. This is important because simply thinking that we have eaten something can make us feel full.
We invited 132 dieting students at our lab to watch an ad. Half of them saw an M&M’s advertisement full of consumption imagery: sweets, colors, and a person eating them. The other half of the students saw an ad with two animated (动画的) M&M’s at a supermarket cash register, with no consumption imagery.
We then gave each student a 70g cup of M&M’s and asked them to eat to their heart’s content. Among the students, those who saw the M&M’s advertisement containing consumption imagery ate fewer sweets than those who saw the ad without.
In the next study, we tested whether we could use these findings to promote healthy eating. We designed four ads and each participant was randomly selected to view one of the four ads.
People who viewed the ad requiring them to imagine themselves wolfing down the French fries indicated a desire to eat fewer chips than those who were exposed to the French fries ad without consumption imagery.
Those who had imagined themselves eating an apple were more likely to succumb to the potato chips than those who had visualized themselves eating the French fries.
These results go against the grain of current public practices that aim to promote healthy eating by relying on images of nutritious foods. However, our research indicates that healthy eating campaigns should include the consumption of unhealthy food.
31. Thinking that we have eaten something can make us feel full because ___________.
A. the images hold the power to increase the sharpness of our senses
B. it activates neural networks similar to those linked with actual eating
C. the consumption imagery makes us recall having eaten the food on display
D. it is in line with the previous research into how imagery affects eating habits
32. What conclusion can we draw from the experiment with M&M chocolates?
A. Animated images in the advertisement may discourage consumption.
B. The more inviting the food in the ad is, the more the viewers will eat.
C. Advertisements with consumption imagery prompt viewers to eat less.
D. Where we see the advertisement is more important than what we see in it.
33. The phrase “succumb to”(in paragraph 10)is closest in meaning to ___________.
A. give way to B. be addicted to
C. face up to D. be resistant to
34. Which of the following practices contributes to developing healthy eating habits?
A. Wolfing down junk food. B. Imagining eating an apple a day.
C. Saying no to grain. D. Watching others eating junk food.

(新情境)Much of the work in today’s world is accomplished(完成) in teams. Most people believe the best way to build a great team is to gather a group of the most talented individuals.____35____Companies spend millions hiring top business people. Is their money well spent?
____36____They focused on football, basketball and baseball. The results are mixed. For football and basketball, adding talented players to a team proves a good method, but only up to the point where 70% of the players are top talent; above that level, the team’s performance begins to decline. Interestingly, this trend isn’t evident in baseball, where additional individual talent keeps improving the team’s performance.
To explain this phenomenon, the researchers explored the degree to which a good performance by a team requires its members to coordinate(协调) their actions. ____37____In baseball, the performance of individual players is less dependent on teammates. They conclude that when task interdependence is high, team performance will suffer when there is too much talent, while individual talent will have positive effects on team performance when task interdependence is lower. If a basketball star is, for example, trying to gain a high personal point total, he may take a shot himself when it would be better to pass the ball to a teammate, affecting the team’s performance. Young children learning to play team sports are often told, “There is no I in TEAM.” ____38____
Another possibility is that when there is a lot of talent on a team, some players may make less effort. Just as in a game of tug-of-war(拔河比赛), whenever a person is added, everyone else pulls the rope with less force.
_____39_____ An A-team may require a balance--not just A players, but a few generous B players as well.
A. It’s not a simple matter to determine the nature of talent.
B. Stars apparently do not follow this basic principle of sportsmanship.
C. Several recent studies examined the role of talent in the sports world.
D. Sports team owners spend millions of dollars attracting top talent.
E. The group interaction and its effect drew the researchers’ attention.
F. This task interdependence distinguishes baseball from football and basketball.
G. Building up a dream team is more complex than simply hiring the best talent.

(新语境)A Journey of Rediscovery in the Scottish Highlands
The morning mist hung low over the green hills as our train slowly entered the small village of Glenfinnan. I had come to Scotland with a carefully made plan for my summer trip. My list included visiting the famous Loch Ness, walking through the streets of Edinburgh, and taking photos of the beautiful Glenfinnan Viaduct. After a busy final year in school, I hoped this trip would help me relax and clear my mind.
However, the most wonderful travel experiences often come when we least expect them. On my second morning, while hiking to a popular viewpoint, I took a wrong turn and found myself on a quiet path. Curious about where it would lead, I followed the sound of running water and soon discovered a small family-owned woolen mill hidden in the valley.
The owner, Mrs. Campbell, welcomed me warmly into her workshop. For the next two hours, she patiently showed me how they transformed local sheep’s wool into beautiful patterned cloth using traditional methods. She shared fascinating stories about her family’s history in the village and their deep connection to the land. Though I couldn’t understand all her words because of her strong accent, her kindness needed no translation.
Later, I did visit all the famous places on my list, but that unexpected afternoon at the woolen mill remained the most precious memory of my trip. It taught me that while it’s good to have a plan, the real magic of travel lies in those unplanned moments when we truly connect with a place and its people. Sometimes, getting lost can help us find what we didn’t know we were looking for.
40. Where did the author’s journey take place?
_____________________________________________
41. What two things did Mrs. Campbell show or tell the author?

42. Read the following statement, underline the false part of it and explain the reason.

Dear Chris,
Knowing that you are suffering from the stress brought by new school life, I am writing to offer you some workable suggestions.
It is quite common among exchange students to fail to accustom themselves to new environment. Therefore, don’t put too much stress on yourself. To get through it, you should work hard to improve your Chinese, especially spoken Chinese, which can help you to communicate with others better. Moreover, why not reach for more students groups? They can help you to know more about China and ease your loneliness. Last but not least, it is necessary to talk with your teacher who can give you some professional instructions about your study.
Hopefully, these suggestions can help you get rid of your pressure.
Yours,
Li Hua

One evening,at home.You're sitting comfortably on the sofa,watching your favorite TV show.An ad comes up,
showing a burger in its full glory and one person enjoying it.You think to yourself that your diet is about to take a bit.
But we beg to differ.
In a series of studies,we found advertisements showing people eating junk food prompted people on a diet to eat
less.While this may seem counterintuitive(反直觉的),these findings are in line with previous research on mental
imagery.
Recent studies show merely imagining ourselves carying out actions or experiencing emotions activates similar
neural networks(神经网络)to those linked with their actual performance or experience.

The images we are exposed to throughout our lives hold the power to shape our experiences to a remarkable
degree.According to neuroimage studies,the mere sight of someone being hit by a hammer will fire up the neural
networks in our brain that are associated with pain.As a result,these images will trigger (emotions and behavior
consistent with feelings of pain.
Such effects also extend to food consumption.The field of consumption imagery refers to rich images of food
consumption-for example,an ad showing the close-up of a pizza and someone eating it.Some studies have even
indicated consumption imagery could cause people to wrongly recall having eaten the food on display.This is
important because simply thinking that we have eaten something can make us feel full.
We invited 132 dieting students at our lab to watch an ad.Half of them saw an M&M's advertisement full of
consumption imagery:sweets,colors,and a person eating them.The other half of the students saw an ad with two
animated M&M's at a supermarket cash register,with no consumption imagery.
We then gave each student a 70g cup of M&M's and asked them to eat to their heart's content.Among the students,
those who saw the M&M's advertisement containing consumption imagery ate fewer sweets than those who saw the
ad without
In the next study,we tested whether we could use these findings to promote healthy eating.We designed four ads
and each participant was randomly selected to view one of the four ads.
People who viewed the ad requiring them to imagine themselves wolfing down the French fries indicated a desire
to eat fewer chips than those who were exposed to the French fries ad without consumption imagery.
Those who had imagined themselves eating an apple were more likely to succumb to the potato chips than those
who had visualized themselves eating the French fries.
These results go against the grain of current public practices that aim to promote healthy eating by relying on
images of nutritious foods.However,our research indicates that healthy eating campaigns should include the
consumption of unhealthy food.
31.Thinking that we have eaten something can make us feel full because
A.the images hold the power to increase the sharpness of our senses
B.it activates neural networks similar to those linked with actual eating
C.the consumption imagery makes us recall having eaten the food on display
D.it is in line with the previous research into how imagery affects eating habits
32.What conclusion can we draw from the experiment with M&M chocolates?
A.Animated images in the advertisement may discourage consumption.

Adom Appiah, is not your typical High School Junior. He has taken his volunteerism to a whole new level by starting a nonprofit charity organization called Ball4Good.
Amazingly, this innovative organization was a result of Adom’s 7th grade school assignment. At age 12, his history teacher, Mrs. Kelsea Turner, at Spartanburg Day School, had challenged her students to dedicate 20% of their class time to a service project. She suggested that they research a community need and then work independently on finding a solution. Adom was inspired.
Adom had great passion for playing sports as a soccer and basketball player. So, he naturally thought of combining sports and community support into an athletics-oriented service project. His idea was to invite athletes, leaders and celebrities to play ball games to raise money for local charities.
Ball4Good held its first Celebrity Basketball Game in 2017. He used donations received on his 13th birthday as seed money for the event. It was a huge success and raised over $70,000 for 13 local charities.
Then, Adom’s idea has transformed into a movement that is helping communities through various ways such as celebrity sport events, charity drives and fundraising. It donates raised funds to various causes affecting children, such as autism, homelessness, abuse and cancer.
If all these accomplishments about Ball4Good were not enough, the teen has also authored three motivational children’s books to inspire students to change the world and bounce back from failures. Donations from book sales have supported several charitable causes. In addition, he won a National Award (Gloria Barron for Young Heroes, 2019) that comes with a $10,000 prize for his public service efforts. Having multiple projects has not slowed Adom down, as he is currently hosting his own show called Kids Changing the World on TV.
“I try to have kids involved in every step of the way, so they can figure out how things work in the business and philanthropist world,” Adom said. He wants people to know that success starts with believing in yourself. His goal is to expand Ball4Good’s reach. He believes that by encouraging others to get involved, he’s multiplying the impact of Ball4Good.
24. What inspired Adom Appiah to start Ball4Good?
A. Passion for sports and support from a community.
B. A school assignment given by his history teacher.
C. His experiences of being a soccer and basketball player.
D. Athletes, leaders and celebrities he invited to play games.
25. According to the passage, we can learn that Ball4Good .
A. aims to promote community sports
B. held its first activity with Adom’s own savings
C. helps communities simply through celebrity sport events
D. uses raised money to help children in various difficulties
26. Which of the following can best describe Adom Appiah?
A. Kind and humorous. B. Generous and patient.
C. Innovative and inspiring. D. Hardworking and reliable.

The facts of climate change are widely reported. It is noted that with a 2℃ increase in global temperatures as compared with a 1.5℃ increase, about 61 million more people living in urban areas around the world will be exposed to severe drought(干旱). The problem with communicating these numbers, however, is that math anxiety — the experience of tension, fear or worry when facing mathematical problems — and the inability to understand and employ numerical concepts — are both quite common.
Despite high rates of innumeracy (数学盲), there are reasons to think that people may not ignore the information when they receive numbers. First, multiple past studies show that people often prefer getting numerical details over unclear description or purely verbal communication People also trust messages provided by medical professionals or journalists more when that communication includes numbers than when it does not. The use of specific numbers signals professionalism to readers.
But trade-offs exist. Given people’s anxiety about math and level of mathematical ability, there is an upper limit when communicating these kinds of details. In past research, it was found that people find numbers helpful, so long as there aren’t too many of them. No hard-and-fast rule suggests how many is too many — it depends on the complexity of the topic, people’s familiarity with the subject and their overall numeracy. Communicators therefore need to know and attend to their audience: if a speaker sees someone looking bored, for example, it’s a sign to back off on the numbers.
In addition to the possibility of being overloaded by numbers, their persuasive power could have consequences that communicators need to consider. Based on the most recent findings, more negative feelings about the posts containing numeric consequences of climate change are reported. To be clear, this doesn’t reflect math anxiety. Instead, these posts resulted in negative emotions because the numerically precise messages were stronger in conveying the disastrous consequences of climate change. If you can suggest actions that people feel they can carry through, that could ease the negative feelings that arise when they consider climate change’s consequences.

Given that past work suggests that sharing numbers builds trust, your readers or listeners may be more likely to follow your recommendations. When used wisely, numbers can help transform anxiety into action, which could help turn the tide in our fight against climate change.

C. Numerically precise messages bring negative outcomes.
D. The audience’s response to numbers should be prioritized.
29. According to the passage, which of the following is an effective climate message?
A. Sea level rise: a ticking time bomb for coastal cities! B. Cycle 5 miles daily, save 50% on carbon footprint!
C. 50% of species lost: a warning from climate change! D. Plant more trees today, enjoy fresher air tomorrow!
30. What is the best title for this passage?
A. Numbers: Origin of tension about climate change. B. Numbers: Reason for high levels of math anxiety.
C. Numbers: Cause of boredom in public speaking. D. Numbers: Aid in fighting environmental issues.

(新语境)A Journey of Rediscovery in the Scottish Highlands
The morning mist hung low over the green hills as our train slowly entered the small village of Glenfinnan. I had come to Scotland with a carefully made plan for my summer trip. My list included visiting the famous Loch Ness, walking through the streets of Edinburgh, and taking photos of the beautiful Glenfinnan Viaduct. After a busy final year in school, I hoped this trip would help me relax and clear my mind.
However, the most wonderful travel experiences often come when we least expect them. On my second morning, while hiking to a popular viewpoint, I took a wrong turn and found myself on a quiet path. Curious about where it would lead, I followed the sound of running water and soon discovered a small family-owned woolen mill hidden in the valley.
The owner, Mrs. Campbell, welcomed me warmly into her workshop. For the next two hours, she patiently showed me how they transformed local sheep’s wool into beautiful patterned cloth using traditional methods. She shared fascinating stories about her family’s history in the village and their deep connection to the land. Though I couldn’t understand all her words because of her strong accent, her kindness needed no translation.
Later, I did visit all the famous places on my list, but that unexpected afternoon at the woolen mill remained the most precious memory of my trip. It taught me that while it’s good to have a plan, the real magic of travel lies in those unplanned moments when we truly connect with a place and its people. Sometimes, getting lost can help us find what we didn’t know we were looking for.
