Centenarians (百岁老人) Geoff Banks from Honiton, Devon, and Celesta Byrne from the US, started writing to each other aged just 16 in 1938. They met as part of an educational project to put British and American students in contact — and decades later they are still corresponding.Former engineer Geoff even kept in touch with Celesta during WWII when he served as a mechanic on British aircraft carrier HMS Illustrious in the Pacific. It has been so long that Geoff, a retired engineer, barely remembers how they started talking. Geoff said, “I honestly struggle to remember how we got in touch, and I think it was something to do with an American school’s scheme. It matched us up with Americans for a pen pal relationship, and somehow I ended up with a letter from an American girl, and we have just kept corresponding ever since. There were a couple of years when we struggled to keep in touch because of the war. Now I correspond mainly by email. Email is much easier for me these days because I can’t write very well anymore. We just talk about daily lives and our families really, but we don’t discuss the football.”They now touch base via video app Zoom. Geoff said, “I have this new thing called Zoom to chat with her, but I leave all the technology to younger people. They’re much better at pressing all the buttons.”Despite having chatted for decades, the pair only met twice — first in 2002 while Geoff visited New York aged 80, and then again two years later. Having such a unique relationship, the pair deny there is any romance there. Celesta said, “We’re just friends, like people who live next door. It’s nice to hear his voice.”4.What played a key role in the pen pals’ contact?A.A school program.B.An educational email.C.A pen pal’s introduction.D.A correspondence course.5.What did the pair mainly talk about in their letters?A.Their favourite sports.B.Their everyday life.C.Their family traditions.D.Their experiences in the war. 6.Which is closest in meaning to “touch base” in paragraph 3?A.Lay foundation.B.Take a chance C.Stay in contact.D.Make adifference.7.Which can be a suitable title for the text?A.Effects of War on Friendship B.True Friendship Lasts ForeverC.Pure Friendship Differs from Love D.The Communication Problems of Old PeopleAs is a very common phenomenon, students are listening to music while studying or doing homework. In libraries, many choose to isolate themselves from the outside wearing headphones, and the same is true of some offices. Whether or not there is isolation, however, what these people have in common is that they see music as a tool that can improve concentration and productivity in general.But is it true? Does music really help us focus better on what we’re doing, whether it’s memorizing text, studying complex topics, or writing projects?Scientific studies have been carried out on this subject for many decades among other things, because if music can be used to improve the performance of students or workers, this information can be very useful for organizations able to finance this type of study.For example, the results of a study were published in 1972 and it was designed to try to better understand the relationship between listening to melodies and changes in productivity. Through a series of observations, there was an increase in the performance of workers when listening to music from loudspeakers.However, this study was the daughter of its time, and was only used to study a very specific and representative working context of the time: that of factories. Workforce tasks were repetitive, predictable and boring, and the music acted as a stimulant of mental activity. As the work was more rewarding and enjoyable, the productivity results were also better.Other research that took place later served to reinforce (加强) the idea that music improves the performance of routine tasks. This was good news, but what about the most complex and creative jobs — those which cannot be carried out by machines? What about studying complex academic programs, which cannot be memorized literally but need to beunderstood and mentally worked on?8.How does the author find the idea that music can improve concentration?A.Curious.B.Opposed.C.Supportive.D.Doubtful. 9.What was the finding of the study in 1972 about listening to music?A.It didn’t make any difference.B.It improved workers’ efficiency.C.It held back the creative workers.D.It made workforce tasks more boring. 10.What was the shortcoming of the study in 1972?A.The lack of researchers.B.The short time of research.C.The limitation of times.D.The small number of participants. 11.What would be talked about in next paragraphs?A.How listening to music affects creative jobs.B.Whether listening to music helps routine tasks.C.Why people like listening to music when working.D.What kind of music helps people improve their performance.A new study suggests that turning away from compassion (同情) in the name of safety may not protect us as we hope. Shutting off our compassionate response may threaten our mental health, the research team found. “This research shows the harmful effect of controlling our natural ability to connect with others,” says Leah Weiss, a founding member of Stanford University’s compassion cultivation training program.To explore how attitudes toward compassion were affecting people’s well-being, University of Coimbra psychologist Marcela Matos and her team employed over 4000 people from 21 countries. All of the participants completed an online survey in spring 2022 that asked them to describe what they think of compassion, how their psychological state is and how strong their social connections are.When the team analyzed the survey responses, they found that participants who expressed a fear of showing compassion for themselves or others were likely to feel more depressed, anxious, and stressed out. People with a fear of compassion also reported feeling less connected to others.Marcela’s findings are consistent with earlier research showing the damaging effects of isolation and withdrawal on mental health. “Social isolation is associated with not just loneliness, anxiety, and depression, but also an increased risk of high blood pressure andcognitive decline,” says Australian psychologist Hugh Mackay, author of The Kindness Revolution.On the other side, people who choose compassion during stressful situations seem to have a more durable sense of well-being. Training programs that promote people’s compassionate response appear to reduce their fear of compassion, based on results from another of Marcela’s studies.Once people realize that compassion can benefit them in tough times as much as it benefits others, they’d be motivated to pull out of an isolation situation. “We have natural desire for social connection, community, kindness and compassion, because those are the pathways to social harmony and cooperation,” Mackay says. “If you can find the resources to address the needs of other people, your own anxieties tend to melt away.” Thus, it’s better to show sympathy.12.What information were the participants required to provide?A.The range of their social circle.B.The levels of their compassion.C.Their beliefs about compassion.D.Their physical and mental states. 13.What did the team find about avoiding compassion?A.It damages social connections.B.It can lead to physical disorders.C.It reduces one’s life satisfaction.D.It threatens one’s ability to recover. 14.Why are earlier research and Marcela’s other studies mentioned?A.To further support the new findings.B.To provide background information.C.To make comparisons between them.D.To come up with different viewpoints.15.What does the author intend to do in the last paragraph?A.Compare notes.B.Make a promise.C.Give an example.D.Provide advice.How to Spot Misinformation OnlineAnyone can post something online, which may reach thousands of people. Therefore, you are likely to encounter some misinformation. 16 . Here are some tips for you to check what you see online.Pause and be skeptical about new information. Whenever you come across an article or apost sharing information that you haven’t seen before, take a second to consider it.17 . It’s better to look into information to make sure it’s legal before spreading it around.18 . Look up the information at the source to see if it was actually published there. Double-check the date of the article or information to make sure it’s current and still accurate. For instance, an article that talks about new COVID-19 cases from 12 months ago may not be accurate right now.Search online for the information in other sources. Look up the information online to see if other news organizations are also saying similar things. 19 , the information could be false. For instance, if you see an article about a wildfire in the rainforest, search online to see if other organizations are also covering it.Watch out for information that sets off a strong emotional response. Misinformation is often designed to make you feel angry, sad, scared, or just upset. If you spot an article or a headline that causes you to feel a strong emotion, be cautious. It would be a sign that it’s false and designed to get a reaction out of you. 20 .A.Check the source and dateB.Not having appeared beforeC.If only one place is reporting somethingD.We should spot and fight misinformation togetherE.Thus keep calm when encountering information onlineF.This can be dangerous and you can help stop its spreadG.Don’t accept the information as a fact or share it without thinking二、完形填空At the age of 91, living alone, Thomas was quietly enjoying his old age.

We landed in the Doha airport at 11:40 pm, and were determined to do something more fun and different, even though we were a little sleepy.The idea is getting huge bags of chocolates and passing them out to strangers in the Doha airport, along with a lively and cheerful “Happy New Year!”At first, we got rejected, and the staff looked at us strangely(they have strict rules on not accepting gifts—even tiny ones). Passers—by thought we were crazy and trying to sell something, but we persevered(坚持不懈).We ended up meeting at least 80 strangers and listening to different heart-opening stories. And among them were two Swedish women, who looked terribly exhausted in the Bal i airport. And when we shared the chocolates in Doha, we learned that their entire purse, with ATM cards and money in it, had been stolen in Bali, and they had no money on them.We were moved and gave them money to spend the night in the business class waiting room and they were so relieved!There were other sweet gentle people we met with whom we laughed and shared travel and life stories---cute children, an old British couple, lovely college girls from Australia—people from around the world.It was a lively New Year’s Eve, but in a different way.

Even if you’re satisfied with the first dress you try on, would you go on looking for alternatives, comparing styles and prices, until you drop dead?According a recent Wall Street Journal column, psychology researchers have studied how people make decisions and concluded there are two basic styles. “Maximisers”are people who want the best. They like to take their time and weigh a wide range of options—sometimes every possible one—before choosing. “Satisficers” would rather be fast than thorough. They are people who want good enough.Schwartz and his colleagues followed 548 job-seeking college seniors at 11 schools fromOctober through their graduation in June. They found that the maximisers landed better jobs. Their starting salaries were, on average, 20 percent higher than those of the satisfivers, but they felt worse about their jobs.There is no right choice. “The maximiser is kicking himself because he can’t examine every option and at some point has to just pick something,” Schwartz says. “Maximixers make good decisions and end up feeling bad about them. Satisfivers make good decisions and end up feeling good.”Faced with so many choices in our lives, we need to learn how not to waste time and energy on our decision-making, says Jane C. Hu in SLATE online magazine. Hu suggests, decrease your range of options. Once you’ve arrived at a decision, stick with it. Just accept that no decision is ever completely perfect, and remind yourself that it is the best you can do at the moment.29. What’s the purpose of the first paragraph?A. To ask readers to think about it.B. To introduce the topic to readers.C. To discuss the problem with readersD. To ask readers to answer the question30. From the passage, we know_____.A. maximisers always get the best jobB. maximisers would rather be fast than thoroughC. maximisers sometimes consider every possible optionD. maximisers are more satisfied with their salaries than satisfivers31. Why do satisficers feel better than maximisers?A. Because they feel content with their choicesB. Because they have time to make a good decisionC. Because they have no patience to make decisionsD. Because they have a higher demand for their jibs.32. According to the last paragraph, Hu advises us t o_____.A. increase the range of optionsB. spend time making decisionsC. accept that nothing is perfectD. stick to the decision we madeDForget countless glasses of water or getting your beauty sleep. The secret of looking young is simply to protect your face from the sun. A new study shows that those who avoid the sun’s rays look younger than they actually are. However, other supposed rules, from drinking lots of water to sleeping well and exercising regularly, failed to hold back the hands of time.The finding comes from a study of 231 women of all ages who were quizzed about their living habits, including whether they were sun-worshippers. It didn’t take into account the sleep pattern. Then researchers from Massachusetts General Hospita l guessed how old the women were. Those who took care in the sun tended to have aged more slowly. A lucky four had so few wrinkles and age spots that they appeared to be two decades younger than they really were.Alexa Kimball, a professor of dermatology (皮肤学), says the popular idea that we drink lots of water to stay healthy is a myth and the body is good at judging how much we need. Previous research by the British Nutrition Foundation(BNF)reached a similar conclusion. Just drinking water for the sake of drinking water really has no effect on improving the skin.A second study suggested that low-level day to day exposure to the sun is more ageing than occasional stay in the hot sun. Finally, DNA examination of tiny samples of the women’s skin gave some insight into the damage done by the sun.Health experts claim that when women become old, the cells of the skin can be tired out. So they urge women should care about their face year round and not just when on a beach holiday. Besides, wearing the sunscreen every day can make a difference.33. What do we know about the study?A. It mainly focused on sleepingB. The women were of the same age.C. Four women looked 20 years youngerD. Low-level daily exposure is younger than occasional stay34. What does Alexa Kimball agree with?A. The body is made up of water.B. The BNF is quite against his view.C. Drinking water can improve the skin.D. People shouldn’t rely on water to improve the skin35. Which is suggested by health experts?A. Women should avoid tiredness.B. The sunscreen can do harm to the skinC. Daily protection of the face is importantD. There is no need to protect the face in winter第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
