It was the winter of 2017 and my best friend Jacob, 25, who I lived with, was getting on my nerves, and I on his. I needed a hobby to get me out of the house. On Facebook, I came across a beginners’ course for underwater rugby which gained appeal as a means of developing teamwork through non-verbal (非语言的) communication. I’d always loved the water, so I went along. I was greeted by an enthusiastic coach Bobby. He got me swimming lengths on the surface, then from the top to the bottom. On the other side of the pool, advanced players were having a session. That they scored goals underwater got me excited. Within weeks, I was playing matches. The sport was played in 3D, meaning you could pass the ball in any direction, even up and down, and opponents could come at you from anywhere. Tackles involved grabbing hold of someone to slow them down and trying to get the ball off them. Often, I’d be so engaged that I wouldn’t think about my breathing until I’d pushed myself too far. I’d then rapidly make my way to the surface for breath, hoping my teammates had taken possession. With each game, my lung capacity increased until I could hold my breath for a full minute while playing. We formed a team called the Raiders, and in November we went to Berlin to compete against teams from other countries. It was the first Australian men’s team and although we came second-last, we had so much fun. My teammates have become close friends. “I want to try it,” Jacob said when he saw how many new friends I had. The classes were inclusive for all levels, and he picked it up as he went. He loved it and because we were both out of the house more, we no longer got on each other’s nerves. There are now hundreds of people playing underwater rugby around Australia, ranging in age from 17 into their late 50s. So I encourage anyone who can to give it a try. 24．(2.5分)Why did the author want to find a hobby? A．To enrich his spare time. B．To reduce the academic stress. C．To ease tension with his roommate. D．To improve his physical fitness. 25．(2.5分)What’s the main idea of paragraph 3? A．The process of participation. B．The training techniques. C．The interaction with the coach. D．The fruits of hard work. 26．(2.5分)How does the author benefit from the experience? A．Landing a high-paying job. B．Learning to avoid team conflicts. C．Winning the international championship. D．Enhancing physical fitness and social bonds. 27．(2.5分)What can we learn from the passage? A．A good talk clears the air. B．A relaxing hobby eases the mind. C．A small sport makes a big difference. D．A team sport fuels the competitive spirit. 【答案】24．C 25．A 26．D 27．C 【导语】文章讲述了作者为缓解与室友的紧张关系而尝试水下橄榄球这项小众运动，并在过程中提升了身体素质、结交了亲密朋友、改善了与室友的关系，这项运动也在当地发展起来。 【详解】24．细节理解题。根据第一段中“It was the winter of 2017 and my best friend Jacob, 25, who I lived with, was getting on my nerves, and I on his. I needed a hobby to get me out of the house. (那是2017年冬天，和我住在一起的最好的朋友，25岁的Jacob，让我心烦，我也让他心烦。我需要一个爱好让我走出家门。)”可知，作者想找一个爱好是为了缓解与室友的紧张关系。 25．主旨大意题。根据第三段中“Within weeks, I was playing matches. The sport was played in 3D... Tackles involved... Often, I’d be so engaged... I’d then rapidly make my way to the surface for breath... (几周内，我就开始打比赛了。这项运动是三维的……抢截包括……我常常如此投入……然后我会迅速浮到水面呼吸……)”可知，本段详细叙述了作者从开始比赛到沉浸其中的完整经历，主要内容是其参与水下橄榄球的过程。 26．细节理解题。根据第四段中“With each game, my lung capacity increased until I could hold my breath for a full minute while playing. (每次比赛，我的肺活量都会增加，直到我可以在比赛时屏住呼吸一分钟。)”和“My teammates have become close friends. (我的队友们已经成为了亲密的朋友。)”和最后一段中“He loved it and because we were both out of the house more, we no longer got on each other’s nerves. (他喜欢它，而且因为我们都经常出门，我们不再让对方心烦。)”可知，作者从这段经历中获益，体现在增强了身体素质和加强了社会联系。 27．推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是第一段中“I needed a hobby to get me out of the house. (我需要一个爱好让我走出家门。)”和最后一段中“He loved it and because we were both out of the house more, we no longer got on each other’s nerves. (他喜欢它，而且因为我们都经常出门，我们不再让对方心烦。)”可知，文章主要讲述了作者因与室友关系紧张而尝试了水下橄榄球这个小众运动，这项运动改善了他的健康、社交，修复了他与室友的关系，给他的个人生活带来了积极而巨大的改变。因此，我们从文章中可以学到“一项小众的运动可以带来巨大的改变”。 （本题10分）You only need to think of any marathon you’ve watched to assume that men tend to outperform women in sport. But an interesting recent research has triggered the discussion. It is highlighted that the male-female performance gap in ultra-endurance (极限耐力) competitions is as low as 4 percent, while it’s around 10 percent in traditional endurance sport. And the difference seems to reduce the longer the event becomes, to the point that women even outperform men when it comes to events like ultra-distance swimming. When it comes to the marathon, we know that finishing times are greatly influenced by VO2max (最大摄氧量). However, these factors have been shown to be less influential in ultra-endurance performance. What this means is that success in ultra-marathons must be determined by the interplay of other physiological characteristics. If we look at the physiology, men tend to have more type II muscle fibers, which are good for high power output sports such as sprinting (短跑). Women have more type I muscle fibers, which produce less force but are more resistant to exhaustion — ideal for ultra-endurance events. Besides, as distances increase and intensity subsequently decreases, we rely more on fat to provide energy to our working muscles. Research currently suggests that compared to males, endurance-trained females use more fat even at rest and so they have spare essential carbohydrate stores. This would mean they’re less likely to hit “the wall” in a race. Sports psychologists have also suggested that women are generally better at bearing pain, reframing feelings such as exhaustion and enjoying the process rather than worrying about the outcome, all of which might lead to a better performance. As persuasive as these theories are, it’s hard to properly draw a firm conclusion that women excel in ultra-endurance sports. Ultra-endurance events appeal to a very small and specialized part of the population rather than the mainstream and the small numbers of women participating make it challenging to draw conclusions, and it’s rare to find direct comparisons with men. Hopefully this will change over time. 28．(2.5分)What can we learn about the research from Paragraph 1? A．Men perform better than women in sports on the whole. B．Ultra-endurance sports are gaining popularity among women. C．Men are comparatively at a disadvantage in traditional endurance sport. D．The performance divide between men and women closes as distances grow. 29．(2.5分)Which of the following accounts for women’s better ultra-endurance performance? A．They have more type II muscle fibers. B．They are better at burning fat for energy. C．They are less dependent on carbohydrate. D．They care more about competition results. 30．(2.5分)What does the last paragraph focus on? A．The intention of the research. B．The influence of the research. C．The limitation of the research. D．The conclusion of the research. 31．(2.5分)What is the purpose of the passage? A．To make a comparison between males and females in sports. B．To clarify a fact that females are equally competent in sports. C．To explain why women make better ultra-endurance athletes. D．To advocate more women engaging in ultra-endurance sports. 【答案】28．D 29．B 30．C 31．C 【导语】本文对比男女运动员耐力赛事表现，从生理构造、能量供给、心理素质分析女性极限耐力运动优势，同时点明相关研究存在不足。 【详解】28．细节理解题。根据第一段“And the difference seems to reduce the longer the event becomes, to the point that women even outperform men when it comes to events like ultra-distance swimming.(而且，这种情况似乎随着赛事时间的延长而逐渐减少，以至于在超长距离游泳等项目中，女性甚至超过了男性)”可知，比赛距离增加，男女运动差距逐渐缩小。 29．细节理解题。根据第三段“Research currently suggests that compared to males, endurance-trained females use more fat even at rest and so they have spare essential carbohydrate stores.(目前的研究表明，与男性相比，耐力训练过的女性即使在静息状态下也消耗更多的脂肪，因此她们体内拥有额外的必需碳水化合物储备)”可知，女性更擅长分解脂肪供能，适配长距离耐力运动。 30．主旨大意题。根据最后一段“Ultra-endurance events appeal to a very small and specialized part of the population rather than the mainstream and the small numbers of women participating make it challenging to draw conclusions.(超长距离赛事吸引的是极少数特定人群，而非主流群体，而参与其中的女性人数较少，因此很难得出结论)”可知，本段点明该项研究存在局限性。 31．推理判断题。通读全文可知，文章开篇提出研究发现，随后从多个角度分析女性更擅长极限耐力运动的原因，最后补充研究的局限性，因此本文的写作目的是解释为什么女性更适合成为极限耐力运动员。 （本题10分）Second place is just the first loser. While the competitive spirit may be as natural as breathing air, it doesn’t always lead to human flourishing and can create misery. Fortunately, there is a formula to solve this problem: instead of always going for gold, shoot for the bronze. Though second place may be the first loser, third place can be the real winner regarding happiness and longevity. In a 1995 study, scholars systematically coded the emotional reactions of silver and bronze medalists in the 1992 Summer Olympic Games. Using slow-motion footage captured both immediately after their events and later on the awards podium (领奖台), researchers found the bronze winners appeared consistently happier on average than the silver medalists. Over 80% of bronze medalists exhibited genuine smiles, a figure that was nearly double that observed among silver medalists. Moreover, every bronze medalist’s smile lasted longer than the average smile observed among the silver medalists. More recent research has looked at the life span of all three medalist categories. A 2018 study found that the athlete whose best performance was silver lived to 72. Gold medalists beat this by four years, living to 76. But first prize in longevity went to the bronze medalists, who lived to 78. The study had a handy explanation for this discrepancy: “Unsatisfactory competition outcomes may adversely affect health.” In other words, silver medalists see themselves as the first loser because they look up to the top step and compare themselves only with the gold medalists, whereas the bronze winners compare themselves favorably with all the others who never made it onto the podium at all. This theory shows the difference between upward and downward social comparison. The worldly happiness strategy of striving for gold every day is foolish. It tends to lower the intrinsic motivation, and thus enjoyment that people obtain from their activities. The principle at work here is trying to improve your own past performance and the only person to whom you will have to compare yourself is you. 32．(2.5分)What can be learned from the 1995 study? A．Both medalists’ emotions were unchanged from the events to the podium. B．Silver medalists smiled as frequently as bronze medalists. C．Bronze medalists’ smiles lasted longer than every silver medalists. D．Bronze winners appeared happier than silver medalists. 33．(2.5分)What is the cause of the difference in medalists’ life span? A．The stress from downward social comparison. B．The effect of different types of social comparison. C．The motivation from upward social comparison. D．The failure to look up to the top after the competition. 34．(2.5分)What does the writer advise us to do to achieve happiness? A．Learn from the top performers. B．Strengthen our achievement motivation. C．Try to be the best in every field. D．Commit to our consistent personal growth. 35．(2.5分)Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A．Social Comparison: A Double-Edged Sword for Athletes B．Coming in Third: The Advantages of Being “Good Enough” C．Coming in Third: The Unexpected Secret to Longevity D．Social Comparison: The Root of Misery in Human Competition 【答案】32．D 33．B 34．D 35．B 【导语】文章通过奥运奖牌研究，指出铜牌得主比银牌得主更幸福长寿，并建议人们放下争第一的执念，专注于自我成长。 【详解】32．细节理解题。根据第二段中“Using slow-motion footage captured both immediately after their events and later on the awards podium (领奖台), researchers found the bronze winners appeared consistently happier on average than the silver medalists. (通过分别在比赛刚结束时以及之后颁奖台上拍摄的慢镜头，研究人员发现铜牌获得者平均来看始终显得比银牌获得者更开心。)”可知，该研究发现铜牌得主看起来比银牌得主更快乐。 33．细节理解题。根据第三段中“In other words, silver medalists see themselves as the first loser because they look up to the top step and compare themselves only with the gold medalists, whereas the bronze winners compare themselves favorably with all the others who never made it onto the podium at all. This theory shows the difference between upward and downward social comparison. (换句话说，银牌得主把自己视为第一失败者，因为他们仰望最高领奖台，只与金牌得主比较；而铜牌得主则会和所有根本没能站上领奖台的人进行更有利的自我比较。这一理论显示了向上社会比较与向下社会比较之间的差异。)”可知，这种寿命差异的原因在于不同社会比较类型的影响。 34．推理判断题。根据最后一段中“The principle at work here is trying to improve your own past performance and the only person to whom you will have to compare yourself is you. (这里适用的原则是努力提升你过去的表现，而唯一需要与之比较的人，就是你自己。)”可知，作者建议我们致力于持续的个人成长。 35．主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段中“Fortunately, there is a formula to solve this problem: instead of always going for gold, shoot for the bronze. (幸运的是，这个问题有一个解决方法：与其总是追求金牌，不如争取铜牌。)”可知，文章基于奥运奖牌研究，指出获得铜牌的优势，建议采纳铜牌代表的人生智慧——满足于“足够好”，并专注于自我成长。因此，“获得第三名：‘足够好’的优势”最契合文章主旨，适合作为文章标题。 （本题12.5分）The Winter Olympics will introduce several new events, with ski mountaineering making its first appearance as a new sport. Known as “skimo”, it requires athletes to hike up a mountain before skiing down. Three events will be held: a women’s sprint, a men’s sprint, and a mixed relay. The competition will take place in Bormio, Italy, at the same site used for Alpine skiing. Other new events are also being added. These are variations of existing sports and aim to give more athletes, especially women, a chance to compete. One such event is dual moguls (雪上技巧). Two skiers compete side by side on a bumpy course, performing aerial (空中的) tricks. 36(2.5分) Traditional moguls have been part of the Winter Games since the 1990s. 37(2.5分) This event pairs one man and one woman from the same country. They race down an ice track head-first on a small sled. This format adds a new dynamic to the sport. This year also marks the first time women’s doubles luge will appear. 38(2.5分) They race down the track feet-first on the same sled. This event highlights the importance of teamwork. It’s not easy for teams to qualify for the Games. The U.S. team narrowly qualified for the Games in a high-stakes race in Utah in early December. 39(2.5分) The pressure was intense, as it was the last chance for teams to earn Olympic ranking points. These additions show the Winter Olympics’ commitment to evolution and inclusion. 40(2.5分) They also bring fresh excitement to the Games, attracting new audiences and showcasing the athletes’ skills. A．Another new event is mixed team skeleton. B．Two women from the same country team up on a single sled. C．Athletes must navigate sharp turns and maintain high speeds. D．Ski mountaineering requires both endurance and technical skill. E．Both men’s and women’s dual moguls will be featured this year. F．This was the final opportunity for teams to secure their spot in the Olympics. G．They offer a platform for athletes to demonstrate their abilities in new formats. 【答案】36．E 37．A 38．B 39．F 40．G 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了冬奥会新增的多个比赛项目（如滑雪登山、双人雪上技巧、混合团体钢架雪车、女子双人无舵雪橇），讲述了项目特点与队伍的奥运资格获取过程，并说明这些新项目让冬奥会更具创新性、包容性和观赏性。 【详解】36．前文“One such event is dual moguls. Two skiers compete side by side on a bumpy course, performing aerial tricks.(其中一种项目是双人雪上技巧赛。两名滑雪运动员并肩在崎岖不平的赛道上比赛，完成空中技巧动作。)”提及新项目“双人雪上技巧”，设空处应就此项目继续介绍。选项E“Both men’s and women’s dual moguls will be featured this year.(今年将设有男子和女子双人雪上技巧项目。)”承接了前文话题，符合分析。故选E项。 37．根据后文“This event pairs one man and one woman from the same country. They race down an ice track head-first on a small sled. This format adds a new dynamic to the sport.(这项赛事将来自同一国家的一男一女选手配对在一起。他们头朝前俯卧在一辆小型钢架雪车上，在冰道上疾驰而下。这种形式为这项运动增添了新的活力。)”可知，该段在介绍一项新的比赛项目，且为男女混合项目。选项A“Another new event is mixed team skeleton.(另一项新增项目是混合团体钢架雪车。)”符合项目描述。故选A项。 38．根据前文“This year also marks the first time women’s doubles luge will appear.(今年也是女子双人雪橇项目首次亮相的一年。)”可知，该部分讲述“女子双人雪橇项目”，设空处应讲述其具体规则。选项B“Two women from the same country team up on a single sled.(两名来自同一国家的女子一起坐在一张雪橇上。)”符合对女子双人雪橇的项目的规则描述，与前文衔接自然。故选B项。 39．前文“The U.S. team narrowly qualified for the Games in a high-stakes race in Utah in early December.(美国队在12月初于犹他州举行的一场竞争激烈的比赛中以微弱优势成功获得了参赛资格。)”提及美国队在12月犹他州的关键赛事中惊险晋级，获得冬奥会比赛资格，由此推知，设空处应是需要将12月犹他州的关键赛事与冬奥会关联表述一下，以使读者更加清晰。选项F“This was the final opportunity for teams to secure their spot in the Olympics.(这（赛事）是各队确保获得奥运会参赛资格的最后机会了。)”中“This”指代前文犹他州赛事，解释了其与冬奥会的关系，符合语境。故选F项。 40．前文“These additions show the Winter Olympics’ commitment to evolution and inclusion.(这些新增内容彰显了冬奥会对于不断发展和包容性的追求。)”提出了新增项目体现了冬奥会的发展与包容性，设空处应继续补充新增项目的其他积极意义。选项G“They offer a platform for athletes to demonstrate their abilities in new formats.(它们为运动员提供了一个展示自身能力的新平台，让他们的表现以全新的形式呈现出来。)”为积极意义表述，主语“They”呼应前文主语“These additions”，在句意上承接前文主题，符合逻辑。故选G项。 三、完形填空 （本题15分）The turning point of my college football career came early in my third year.

Most importantly, I was worried about performing poorly. Fortunately, my classmate Anna kindly offered to help me prepare. After school, we spent several hours together in the kitchen, practicing my recipe over and over again. She guided me patiently, showing me how to chop vegetables evenly, cook the pasta (意大利面食) perfectly, and mix the ingredients carefully. She even gave me tips on how to make the salad look more appealing on the plate by arranging colors and shapes neatly. Her encouragement and advice made me feel more confident and make much progress. Every weekend, for a whole month, we got up early so that we could have enough time to practice and we followed the same routine to prepare for the competition. In the beginning, we carefully selected the freshest vegetables from the market, checking each carrot, cucumber, and lettuce leaf for quality. Anna reminded me to time every step perfectly, so the pasta would not be overcooked and the vegetables would remain crisp and fresh. We also practiced plating the salad neatly, arranging the colors and shapes to make it look attractive, because presentation was just as important as taste. Each rehearsal made me feel more confident and ready. And by the night before the competition, I was nervous but also excited to show what we had learned. On the day of the contest, standing at the center of the bustling school campus, I felt the crowd’s eyes on me and my anxiety returned immediately. The tables were neatly arranged with all the ingredients we would need, while students from other classes moved quickly, chopping, stirring, and plating with confidence. At first, I hesitated, afraid of making mistakes in front of so many people and worried that my pasta salad would not turn out well. My hands trembled slightly as I picked up the knife. 注意： （1）续写词数应为150个左右； （2）请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 The things did not go smoothly. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The judges announced the winners, and to my surprise, I won third place. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】参考范文： The things did not go smoothly. As I began cooking, one of the vegetables accidentally fell to the floor. Panic rose inside me, and I felt my confidence slipping. At that time, I remembered Anna’s advice: “Stay calm and take one step at a time.” I took a deep breath, replaced the fallen vegetable, and carefully drained the pasta. Slowly, I regained my rhythm, chopping and mixing with more focus. By the time the judges tasted my dish, I felt proud of what I had done.

It was the winter of 2017 and my best friend Jacob, 25, who I lived with, was getting on my nerves, and I on his. I needed a hobby to get me out of the house. On Facebook, I came across a beginners’ course for underwater rugby which gained appeal as a means of developing teamwork through non-verbal (非语言的) communication. I’d always loved the water, so I went along. I was greeted by an enthusiastic coach Bobby. He got me swimming lengths on the surface, then from the top to the bottom. On the other side of the pool, advanced players were having a session. That they scored goals underwater got me excited. Within weeks, I was playing matches. The sport was played in 3D, meaning you could pass the ball in any direction, even up and down, and opponents could come at you from anywhere. Tackles involved grabbing hold of someone to slow them down and trying to get the ball off them. Often, I’d be so engaged that I wouldn’t think about my breathing until I’d pushed myself too far. I’d then rapidly make my way to the surface for breath, hoping my teammates had taken possession. With each game, my lung capacity increased until I could hold my breath for a full minute while playing. We formed a team called the Raiders, and in November we went to Berlin to compete against teams from other countries. It was the first Australian men’s team and although we came second-last, we had so much fun. My teammates have become close friends. “I want to try it,” Jacob said when he saw how many new friends I had. The classes were inclusive for all levels, and he picked it up as he went. He loved it and because we were both out of the house more, we no longer got on each other’s nerves. There are now hundreds of people playing underwater rugby around Australia, ranging in age from 17 into their late 50s. So I encourage anyone who can to give it a try. 24．(2.5分)Why did the author want to find a hobby? A．To enrich his spare time. B．To reduce the academic stress. C．To ease tension with his roommate. D．To improve his physical fitness. 25．(2.5分)What’s the main idea of paragraph 3? A．The process of participation. B．The training techniques. C．The interaction with the coach. D．The fruits of hard work. 26．(2.5分)How does the author benefit from the experience? A．Landing a high-paying job. B．Learning to avoid team conflicts. C．Winning the international championship. D．Enhancing physical fitness and social bonds. 27．(2.5分)What can we learn from the passage? A．A good talk clears the air. B．A relaxing hobby eases the mind. C．A small sport makes a big difference. D．A team sport fuels the competitive spirit. （本题10分）You only need to think of any marathon you’ve watched to assume that men tend to outperform women in sport. But an interesting recent research has triggered the discussion. It is highlighted that the male-female performance gap in ultra-endurance (极限耐力) competitions is as low as 4 percent, while it’s around 10 percent in traditional endurance sport. And the difference seems to reduce the longer the event becomes, to the point that women even outperform men when it comes to events like ultra-distance swimming. When it comes to the marathon, we know that finishing times are greatly influenced by VO2max (最大摄氧量). However, these factors have been shown to be less influential in ultra-endurance performance. What this means is that success in ultra-marathons must be determined by the interplay of other physiological characteristics. If we look at the physiology, men tend to have more type II muscle fibers, which are good for high power output sports such as sprinting (短跑). Women have more type I muscle fibers, which produce less force but are more resistant to exhaustion — ideal for ultra-endurance events. Besides, as distances increase and intensity subsequently decreases, we rely more on fat to provide energy to our working muscles. Research currently suggests that compared to males, endurance-trained females use more fat even at rest and so they have spare essential carbohydrate stores. This would mean they’re less likely to hit “the wall” in a race. Sports psychologists have also suggested that women are generally better at bearing pain, reframing feelings such as exhaustion and enjoying the process rather than worrying about the outcome, all of which might lead to a better performance. As persuasive as these theories are, it’s hard to properly draw a firm conclusion that women excel in ultra-endurance sports. Ultra-endurance events appeal to a very small and specialized part of the population rather than the mainstream and the small numbers of women participating make it challenging to draw conclusions, and it’s rare to find direct comparisons with men. Hopefully this will change over time. 28．(2.5分)What can we learn about the research from Paragraph 1? A．Men perform better than women in sports on the whole. B．Ultra-endurance sports are gaining popularity among women. C．Men are comparatively at a disadvantage in traditional endurance sport. D．The performance divide between men and women closes as distances grow. 29．(2.5分)Which of the following accounts for women’s better ultra-endurance performance? A．They have more type II muscle fibers. B．They are better at burning fat for energy. C．They are less dependent on carbohydrate. D．They care more about competition results. 30．(2.5分)What does the last paragraph focus on? A．The intention of the research. B．The influence of the research. C．The limitation of the research. D．The conclusion of the research. 31．(2.5分)What is the purpose of the passage? A．To make a comparison between males and females in sports. B．To clarify a fact that females are equally competent in sports. C．To explain why women make better ultra-endurance athletes. D．To advocate more women engaging in ultra-endurance sports. （本题10分）Second place is just the first loser. While the competitive spirit may be as natural as breathing air, it doesn’t always lead to human flourishing and can create misery. Fortunately, there is a formula to solve this problem: instead of always going for gold, shoot for the bronze. Though second place may be the first loser, third place can be the real winner regarding happiness and longevity. In a 1995 study, scholars systematically coded the emotional reactions of silver and bronze medalists in the 1992 Summer Olympic Games. Using slow-motion footage captured both immediately after their events and later on the awards podium (领奖台), researchers found the bronze winners appeared consistently happier on average than the silver medalists. Over 80% of bronze medalists exhibited genuine smiles, a figure that was nearly double that observed among silver medalists. Moreover, every bronze medalist’s smile lasted longer than the average smile observed among the silver medalists. More recent research has looked at the life span of all three medalist categories. A 2018 study found that the athlete whose best performance was silver lived to 72. Gold medalists beat this by four years, living to 76. But first prize in longevity went to the bronze medalists, who lived to 78. The study had a handy explanation for this discrepancy: “Unsatisfactory competition outcomes may adversely affect health.” In other words, silver medalists see themselves as the first loser because they look up to the top step and compare themselves only with the gold medalists, whereas the bronze winners compare themselves favorably with all the others who never made it onto the podium at all. This theory shows the difference between upward and downward social comparison. The worldly happiness strategy of striving for gold every day is foolish. It tends to lower the intrinsic motivation, and thus enjoyment that people obtain from their activities. The principle at work here is trying to improve your own past performance and the only person to whom you will have to compare yourself is you. 32．(2.5分)What can be learned from the 1995 study? A．Both medalists’ emotions were unchanged from the events to the podium. B．Silver medalists smiled as frequently as bronze medalists. C．Bronze medalists’ smiles lasted longer than every silver medalists. D．Bronze winners appeared happier than silver medalists. 33．(2.5分)What is the cause of the difference in medalists’ life span? A．The stress from downward social comparison. B．The effect of different types of social comparison. C．The motivation from upward social comparison. D．The failure to look up to the top after the competition. 34．(2.5分)What does the writer advise us to do to achieve happiness? A．Learn from the top performers. B．Strengthen our achievement motivation. C．Try to be the best in every field. D．Commit to our consistent personal growth. 35．(2.5分)Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A．Social Comparison: A Double-Edged Sword for Athletes B．Coming in Third: The Advantages of Being “Good Enough” C．Coming in Third: The Unexpected Secret to Longevity D．Social Comparison: The Root of Misery in Human Competition （本题12.5分）The Winter Olympics will introduce several new events, with ski mountaineering making its first appearance as a new sport. Known as “skimo”, it requires athletes to hike up a mountain before skiing down. Three events will be held: a women’s sprint, a men’s sprint, and a mixed relay. The competition will take place in Bormio, Italy, at the same site used for Alpine skiing. Other new events are also being added. These are variations of existing sports and aim to give more athletes, especially women, a chance to compete. One such event is dual moguls (雪上技巧). Two skiers compete side by side on a bumpy course, performing aerial (空中的) tricks. 36(2.5分) Traditional moguls have been part of the Winter Games since the 1990s. 37(2.5分) This event pairs one man and one woman from the same country. They race down an ice track head-first on a small sled. This format adds a new dynamic to the sport. This year also marks the first time women’s doubles luge will appear. 38(2.5分) They race down the track feet-first on the same sled. This event highlights the importance of teamwork. It’s not easy for teams to qualify for the Games. The U.S. team narrowly qualified for the Games in a high-stakes race in Utah in early December. 39(2.5分) The pressure was intense, as it was the last chance for teams to earn Olympic ranking points. These additions show the Winter Olympics’ commitment to evolution and inclusion. 40(2.5分) They also bring fresh excitement to the Games, attracting new audiences and showcasing the athletes’ skills. A．Another new event is mixed team skeleton. B．Two women from the same country team up on a single sled. C．Athletes must navigate sharp turns and maintain high speeds. D．Ski mountaineering requires both endurance and technical skill. E．Both men’s and women’s dual moguls will be featured this year. F．This was the final opportunity for teams to secure their spot in the Olympics. G．They offer a platform for athletes to demonstrate their abilities in new formats. 三、完形填空 （本题15分）The turning point of my college football career came early in my third year.

Most importantly, I was worried about performing poorly. Fortunately, my classmate Anna kindly offered to help me prepare. After school, we spent several hours together in the kitchen, practicing my recipe over and over again. She guided me patiently, showing me how to chop vegetables evenly, cook the pasta (意大利面食) perfectly, and mix the ingredients carefully. She even gave me tips on how to make the salad look more appealing on the plate by arranging colors and shapes neatly. Her encouragement and advice made me feel more confident and make much progress. Every weekend, for a whole month, we got up early so that we could have enough time to practice and we followed the same routine to prepare for the competition. In the beginning, we carefully selected the freshest vegetables from the market, checking each carrot, cucumber, and lettuce leaf for quality. Anna reminded me to time every step perfectly, so the pasta would not be overcooked and the vegetables would remain crisp and fresh. We also practiced plating the salad neatly, arranging the colors and shapes to make it look attractive, because presentation was just as important as taste. Each rehearsal made me feel more confident and ready. And by the night before the competition, I was nervous but also excited to show what we had learned. On the day of the contest, standing at the center of the bustling school campus, I felt the crowd’s eyes on me and my anxiety returned immediately. The tables were neatly arranged with all the ingredients we would need, while students from other classes moved quickly, chopping, stirring, and plating with confidence. At first, I hesitated, afraid of making mistakes in front of so many people and worried that my pasta salad would not turn out well. My hands trembled slightly as I picked up the knife. 注意： （1）续写词数应为150个左右； （2）请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 The things did not go smoothly. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The judges announced the winners, and to my surprise, I won third place. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 2 / 2 2 / 2 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
