Offer to be your mother's health friend. Promise to be there for any and all doctor's visits whether a disease or a regular medical check-up.

It was first published in the year 1904, authored by Lucy Maud Montgomery, but it still connects to today’s world where we forget to live in the present.It tells of the adventures of Anne Shirley, an 11-year-old orphan (孤儿)girl who is mistakenly sent to Matthew and Marilla Cuthbert, a middle-aged brother and sister who had intended to adopt a boy to help them on their farm in the fictional town of Avonlea. The novel describes how Anne makes her way with the Cuthberts, in school, and within the town.The book teaches me a lot of things, the most important being — to be who you are. Why do we need to pretend to be somebody else and project a false image of ourselves to look better? We need to realize that we are all different in our own way and accept ourselves first. As is described in the book, Anne is a colorful and ever-growing character. She “has as many shades as a rainbow and every shade is the prettiest while it lasts.” Each aspect of her personality is beautiful, which makes her unique and interesting.Another important concept that is illustrated remarkably well is the importance of taking joy in the world around us. Anne’s obvious wonder-struck appreciation of life made me truly appreciate the small things. Here is my favourite quote (引言) from Chapter 19:I believe the nicest and sweetest days are not those on which anything very splendid or wonderful or exciting happens but just those that bring simple little pleasures, following one another softly, like pearls slipping off a string.Anne’s influence has deeply shaped who I am today. This classic novel truly highlights the importance of self-love and gratitude. With its uplifting and refreshing story, it is a wonderful read for people of all ages seeking a joyful and enriching literary journey.24．What do we know about Anne of Green Gables?A．It is a recent release.B．It covers real events.C．It is a timeless classic.D．It features world history.25．What can we learn about Anne from paragraph 3?A．She is true to herself.B．She achieves her goal.C．She is talented in drawing.D．She cares about others.26．Which of the following best matches the quote from Chapter 19?A．Time waits for no man.B．Do one thing at a time.C．Fortune favours the brave.D．Stop and smell the roses.27．What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?A．To tell a story.B．To remember a writer.C．To teach a lesson.D．To recommend a book.Theo works days, nights, and weekends in the tulip (郁金香) fields in the Netherlands and never complains about tired muscles. How is this possible? Theo, named after a retired farmer, is a high-tech robot in the battle to root out disease from the fields.The robot rolls along rows of yellow and red tulips, checking each plant and, when necessary, killing diseased bulbs (鳞茎) to prevent the spread of the tulip-breaking virus (病毒). The virus weakens the bulb, leaving them unable to flower. The dead bulbs are removed from healthy ones in a sorting center after they have been harvested. There are 45 robots like Theo working in the tulip fields of the Netherlands. Their job becomes important as the winter turns to spring and peak season nears, when people come from around the world to admire the colorful flowers.In the past, this work was carried out by knowledgeable farmers. Allan Visser is a third-generation tulip farmer who is using the robot. “You could buy a very nice sports car for the price of the robot,” Visser said. The robot costs 185,000 euros. “It’s a lot slower than a sports car, rolling on caterpillar tracks through fields,” he added. “But I choose the robot because a sports car doesn’t see the sick tulips. Now there are fewer and fewer people who can really do that.”The robots have been trained to detect sick plants. They have cameras and take thousands of photos of the tulips. Their AI model examines the photos, hunting out signs on sick plants, and decides which ones need to be killed. The engineer explains the robots use GPS to be sure they are destroying the correct tulips. The heart of the machine is the knowledge put into the AI model, which comes from experienced tulip farmers like Theo van der Voort, who gave his name to the robot.Van der Voort retired after 52 years of looking for sick flowers in his fields. “It’s fantastic,” he said. “It sees just as much as I see.”28．What does the robot do?A．Plant new tulips.B．Clear troubled bulbs.C．Kill deadly virus.D．Harvest grown flowers.29．What can we infer from Visser’s words?A．He dreams of a sports car.B．Tulip fields are low in production.C．The robot is worth the cost.D．Farmers lack technical knowledge. 30．What is the key to making the robots work effectively?A．GPS systems.B．High-tech cameras.C．Daily training.D．Human knowledge.31．Which of the following is the best title for the text?A．Theo’s Watch: An Advance in Tulip FarmingB．Al Robots: A Replacement for Aging FarmersC．Tulip Seasons: An Attraction of the NetherlandsD．Visser’s Practice: A Tradition in Tulip BusinessesParents of teenagers often view their children’s friends with distrust, worrying that their children will be pushed by their peers (同龄人) into doing something foolish or even dangerous. Their worries hold water. In a previous study, psychologist Laurence Steinberg found that a teenage driver with a same-age passenger in the car is at higher risk of traffic accidents than one driving alone or with an adult.In the following years, Steinberg examined why teens were more likely to take risks in the company of other teenagers. In a later study, by scanning (扫描) the brains of 40 teens and adults, Steinberg found the brains of teenagers, but not adults, showed greater activity in two regions associated with rewards when they were being observed by same-age peers. The reward systems of the brain are activated whenever people experience something rewarding, like eating a nice-tasting food, which make them feel satisfied. In this case, rewards are greater for teens, which motivates them to seek higher-risk experiences.But Steinberg thought peer pressure might also have its positive side. In the latest study, Steinberg’s team used a card game to research how peers affect the way young people gather and apply information. It involved 101 teenage boys who played either alone or with three peers. They chose cards from four decks (牌堆): two decks had “good” cards, and two “bad” ones. Players with peers were more willing to take risks, trying to figure out which decks could help them towin. The results showed that teens playing with their peers engage in more exploratory behavior, learn faster and achieve better performance on the task than those playing alone.Now some experts are proposing that we should take advantage of the teens’ keen sensitivity (敏感) to the presence of friends to improve education. “Risk taking in an educational context is a vital skill that enables progress and creativity,” wrote Sarah-Jayne Blakemore, a professor at University College London.32．What do the underlined words “hold water” in paragraph 1 mean?A．Make sense.B．Face doubts.C．Bring relief.D．Start debates.33．What is the reason behind teens’ dangerous behavior?A．Inability to tell right from wrong.B．A sense of satisfaction.C．Eagerness to follow their friends.D．Lack of social experience.34．How does risk-taking affect teens in the latest study?A．It starts fights between them.B．It inspires them to question.C．It weakens their independence.D．It helps them to learn better.35．What would Blakemore suggest teachers do in the classroom?A．Conduct group discussion.B．Improve time management.C．Encourage personal opinions.D．Develop decision-making skills.Standing at the top of a staircase in the Louvre in Paris, the Nike, or the Winged Victory (胜利女神), looks down over her admiring crowds. This statue is one of the most famous artworks of Greek art. 36 Later it was brought to Paris and has been on display in the Louvre since 1866.The Nike consists of two parts: a large ship’s front part, and a standing statue with a totalheight of more than eighteen feet. It looks like the Winged Victory has just flown down from the sky. 37 The wind blows her dress across her body, gathering it in heavy folds, and streaming behind her. When viewers look at her, they can almost feel the wind from the sea.38The statue, as it stands today in the Louvre, has been partly repaired. The right wing is a modern copy, but the missing feet, arms, and head have not been recovered, giving viewers much to imagine. For instance, did the Nike hold objects in her hands? In fact, people found her right hand in 1950, whose fingers are spread out. 39 She must have simply raised her right arm in greeting. Her head may have looked straight ahead, and viewers can only guess about the features of her face.40 As one of the few existing examples of original Greek sculpture, it will continue to attract viewers, just as it undoubtedly did before.A．This means that she cannot have held any object.B．The Nike is in charge of victory in ancient Greek stories.C．It was found on a Greek island in the Aegean sea in 1863.D．This statue was made by artists who left no names in history.E．It’s hard for them to believe such a lifelike statue is made of stone.F．Landing on top of the ship, she celebrates the victory of an ancient battle.G．Despite its incomplete survival, the Winged Victory is truly a masterpiece.三、完形填空Jason Smith is a published children’s author and award-winning poet.

Led by Teens Give Back SATX, these young people are making a real difference for those who need help.“We often forget how lucky we are to have a bed to sleep in at night after a long day of work or school, and how nice it feels. Homeless people have no shelters (避难所) or even no beds,” said Addie Roberts from Teens Give Back SATX. With this in mind, Roberts and her friends decided to use old grocery bags to make something valuable for San Antonio’s homeless people.Making these sleeping mats takes time, hard work, and teamwork. Each mat needs about 700 to 900 plastic bags, and it can take 15—20 hours to finish one. Even though the project is a lot of work, the young people are determined to help their community.“In some weather conditions, these mats can save lives by keeping people off the cold ground,” said Rex Brien, Vice President of Emergency Services for SAMMinistries. Just providing a barrier between people and the weather can really help those who have nowhere else to sleep.In the past year, Teens Give Back SATX has made around 50 mats, showing how committed (尽心尽力的) they are to helping San Antonio’s homeless people. As the young people keep working to turn trash (垃圾) into treasure, they invite others to join them and make a difference.4．What is the main goal of Teens Give Back SATX in the text?A．To teach about trash.B．To help homeless people.C．To recycle plastic bags.D．To find new ways to learn.5．What’s the main idea of the third paragraph?A．Making mats costs more than expected.B．The young people’s efforts have paid off.C．The young people make a commitment to their job.D．The young people help people from all walks of life.6．What’s one important thing the mats do in bad weather according to Rex Brien?A．Keep people calm.B．Make a soft bed.C．Shelter the homeless.D．Block the cold ground.7．What do the young people want to promote in addition to turning trash into treasure?A．The sense of belonging.B．Awareness of charity.C．Public health awareness.D．The sense of satisfaction.This is a video interview. An AI interviewer is on the screen. It asks: “From your resume (简历), we know you took part in an activity; please talk about the role you played in it. “Unlike real people who would size you up in past interviews, this interviewer’s body movements still have a somewhat mechanical (机械的) feeling, so you’re not as nervous as before.”As AI technology gradually becomes wide-ranging, more and more companies start using AI to improve recruitment (招聘) efficiency, handling tasks such as job matching, intelligent interviews, etc. Some job seekers can also use AI tools for resume preparing, interview practice, and instant feedback.In the future, will HR (人力资源) be replaced? In response to the question, CEO Ye Xiangyu believes: “As technology develops, the originally inefficient work of HR will be made more efficient. In the vast field of human resources, after AI handles some tool-type tasks, it can free up time for HR to accomplish more and more important other tasks. Above all else, AI will likely extend the capabilities of HR professionals rather than replacing them entirely.”Perhaps in the future, this industry will experience a brief period of growing pains, but according to existing research data, the majority of job seekers still value human decision-making in hiring processes.For companies, seizing the AI opportunity and truly improving efficiency with AI technology has become a test they must face. However, the road for AI to empower the recruitment industry is still very long, with software development and technical advancements continually evolving. AI offers guidelines, and downloading insights from AI systems can enhance decision-making, but human’s judgment remains important.8．How will you be if you are receiving a video interview by AI according to paragraph 1?A．Less nervous.B．More confident.C．In low spirits.D．More curious. 9．Which of the following can replace the underlined word “handling” in the second paragraph?A．bringing up B．speeding up C．dealing with D．getting rid of 10．What does CEO Ye Xiangyu think about AI and HR?A．AI will make HR jobs useless.B．AI will allow HR to do more important stuff.C．HR people will have to do different jobs.D．AI will do all HR work.11．Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A．AI: A Long Way to the Future B．AI: The Role in RecruitmentC．AI: The Replacement of Humans D．AI: The End of Human Decision-MakingCelebrities (名人) have all sorts of strange diets. One of the latest diets among celebrities is the “OMAD”. Instead of only fasting on certain days or only eating your meals during a specific time window, people following OMAD eat all their day’s calories in one single, large meal.One study so far has looked at the effect of OMAD in humans. In this study, participants (参与者) were given the same number of calories to eat each day. For half of the study, participants ate these calories in a single meal, before switching (转换) and eating their daily calories in three meals. Each meal pattern was only followed for an 11-day period-not very long at all. The one meal was taken between 5 p. m. and 7 p. m., ensuring a particular flavour to the timing. Only 11 participants completed the study, suggesting a limited results.When participants ate just one meal per day, they saw a greater reduction in their body weight, indicating a potential association between OMAD and weight loss. However, participants also experienced greater reductions in bone density (密度) when eating just one meal a day, suggesting a need to vary the diet for health. This could lead to reduced muscle function and greater risk of bone fractures (骨折) if the diet was to be followed for a longer period.While these results may indicate that OMAD could have benefits for some aspects of health, there’s still a lot we don’t know about it. It will be important for future studies to investigate (调查) the effect of OMAD in a larger number of participants and in other groups of people, as this study only included thin, young adults. It will also be important for studies to look at the effect ofOMAD over a longer period of time, and to conduct these trials in a real-life setting.12．What is the primary characteristic of the OMAD diet according to the text?A．One large meal per day.B．Low calorie eating.C．Plain flavour.D．Multiple small meals.13．According to the study mentioned, what effect did the OMAD diet have on participants?A．Weight gain.B．Weight loss.C．Increase in fat.D．Increase in height. 14．Which group of people were involved in the study discussed in the text?A．Elderly people.B．Overweight adults.C．Young people.D．Children. 15．What does the text suggest about future research on the OMAD diet?A．Stopping unnecessary studies.B．Reducing participants.C．Exploring long-term effects.D．Testing only in the lab.The number of people dying in natural disasters is lower today than it was in the past.16 However, if you can keep your head and find the right place to stay when the ground starts shaking, you might be able to survive.17 The biggest danger is falling pieces. Since earthquakes happen suddenly without warning, you have to think quickly to stay safe. If you are indoors during an earthquake, remember: “drop, cover and hold on.”Drop: When you feel the ground shaking or something crashing, get down on your hands and knees. 18 Quickly crawl (缓慢行进) under a strong desk or table nearby. Don’t try to run downstairs or walk to a safer place because you might fall. If you are in bed, stay there and cover your head with a pillow until the shaking stops.Cover: Use one hand to cover your neck and head. 19 If not, move towards a wall inside the building, not the outside walls with windows. Stay on your hands and knees, keeping your hand over your neck for protection.Hold on: Hold onto your desk or table with one hand while keeping the other over your neck and head. Be ready to move with the desk or table. 20However, if you are outside, driving or at the beach, trying to find something to hide under may not be an option.A．This keeps you from falling over.B．If it is not strong enough, turn to another one.C．Earthquakes can still be destructive, though.D．Then crawl under a desk or table if there’s one close by.E．Advanced technology provides many ways for us to stay safer.F．Remember, don’t try to move until the shaking has completely stopped.G．The safest place during an earthquake is likely an open field with no trees around.二、完形填空A 14-year-old boy was on the way back home with his cousin when he caught something unexpected: a stranger’s wallet.

On the night when the earthquake happened, many survivors had to sit or lie on the ground in terrible darkness. Some brought their own tents and others turned on the lights of motorcycles. It seemed that the earth was at an end. But their natural character made them get together to fight the early spring’s cold nights. Facing the disaster, they chose to be stronger and standing still and firmly like Yushu, the name of their hometown meaning “Standing like Trees”.The disaster drew much attention both at home and abroad. Our country leaders ordered rescuers（营救人员） to value every life and never to give up. Thousands of rescuers and medical teams rushed to Yushu from many areas of China, bringing machines, medicines and something necessary to the quake-hit town. They entered every village to search for survivors. Governments, organizations and volunteers are offering money and materials to the areas.We believe that under the leadership of the Central Government, people in the disaster areas are sure to restore production and rebuild homeland as soon as possible. And the overall victory can be achieved in the earthquake rescue work. 4．In Paragraph 2, the writer refers to the meaning of “Yushu” to show that _______.A．the strong trees stand still to fight the early spring’s cold nights B．some trees were cut down to make tents to live through the disasterC．the big tree standing still brings the local people good luckD．people there are brave and strong when facing the earthquake5．Which of the following is TRUE according to the text?A．Yushu, a young town, was destroyed in the terrible earthquake.B．A huge earthquake once hit Yushu County in the Tang Dynasty.C．The whole nation does its best to help rebuild the new homeland.D．There was still electricity after the earthquake struck the town.6．The underlined word “restore” in Paragraph 4 probably means _______.A．战胜B．储存C．恢复D．修理I always have a dream: It’s the end of the semester, and I suddenly realize that there is a lecture I missed. and now I have to sit for the final exam. I wake up panicked, my GPA in danger. How could I have done this? Why? Oh, my God! Then I remember I haven’t been in college for more than a decade.My old schoolmates might argue that this nightmare scenario is not that far removed from my actual college experience, and that at certain times in my life, it did not take the magic of sleeping to find me completely unprepared for a final. And, regardless of what may or may not be true of my academic accuracy, I suspect the school-stress dream is quite a common one.My suspicion was confirmed by Deirdre Barrett, a dream researcher at Harvard University. She explained that these dreams tend to pop up when the dreamer is anxious in waking life. Particularly when evaluated by an authority figure. people who wanted to act or play music at an early age tend to experience anxiety dreams not about school, but about auditions — that was where they interacted with the figures who could most easily crush them. In each of these dream scenarios, we revisit the space where we first experienced success or failure based on our performance.To find out what my specified performance-based anxiety dream means, I went to Jane Anderson, a dream analyst. Although science is undecided about the exact purposeof dreams, what night he behind “that dream scenario, being hack at school and having to take this final, she told me, is,” feeling tested in lie, feeling that you have to respond to other people’s expectations, and feeling that you’re not meeting those expectations. “So you think back to school. So much stuff happens in school that really sets your foundational beliefs and really sticks there in your unconscious mind. It can be very hard to let go of those beliefs,” she said. 7．Why is the author’s dream mentioned in the first paragraph?A．To analyze reasons. B．To attract readers.C．To lead into the topic. D．To share the experience.8．Who is the least likely to have the performance-based anxiety dream?A．An actor discussed by the fans about his newly released movie.B．A worker examined by the employer for his work performance.C．An undergraduate evaluated by the professor for his graduation paper.D．A teacher assessed by the principal for his teaching achievements.9．What does Anderson say about the impact of school experiences on people’s life? A．Various and gradual. B．Lasting and important.C．Positive but temporary. D．Negative but changeable.10．What does the text suggest about school-stress dreams?A．Special medical treatment is required to address the problem.B．More scientific research is needed to explore the real purpose.C．They may indicate difficulty or disappointment in real life.D．They only happen to those with negative school experiences.The story begins at the 1992 Summer Olympic Games in Barcelona. Derek Redmond was a short-distance runner for Great Britain. He was so thirsty for a medal although he’d had five surgeries (手术), including one on his Achilles tendon (跟腱) with less than four months before the Games. His Olympic dream was dashed four years ago at the 1988 Games in Seoul when he tore (拉伤) his Achilles tendon an hour before the race.Redmond’s dream of a medal in Barcelona in the 400 meters started off well,as he ran the fastest at first and won his quarterfinal. In the semifinals, Redmond charged out of the blocks and looked strong on the first straightaway. But shortly before the race’s halfway mark, his face wore an expression of pain and he held the back of his right leg: he pulled his tendon. He fell down to the track in pain, as the rest of the pack kept running. Alone on the track, Redmond stood and began jumping on his left foot—trying to finish the race. The crowd stood up and cheered as Redmond moved slowly toward the finish line.Then a man turned up alongside the track: Redmond’s dad, Jim. Waving off officials who tried to get him off the track, Jim Redmond ran up to his son, putting an arm around his waist. Derek turned and cried on his father’s shoulder. Together, father and son walked the final meters of the race.“I saw my son having a problem and it was my duty to help,” Jim Redmond said. “I actually went on the track to try to stop him suffering further pain. It was Derek’s idea. He asked me to get him back on the track and I offered him a shoulder to finish the race.”The Olympic Committee called the finish one of the most inspiring moments in Olympic history.11．What does the underlined word “dashed” in paragraph 1 probably mean? A．Broken. B．Realized. C．Updated. D．Made.12．Why did Derek Redmond stop running during the race in Barcelona?A．A man blocked his track. B．He felt a pain in his left leg. C．His tendon was injured. D．It was hopeless to win the match. 13．Who offered Derek Redmond a hand to finish the race?A．A fan. B．His father. C．A coach. D．Other athletes. 14．What can we infer about Derek Redmond from the text?A．He was attached to his family. B．He won the race in the end.C．He was afraid of challenges.

Here, our expert panel provides you with four different solutions for getting some rest:Neil B．Kavey, the sleep specialist.Try behavior changes and proper and regular use of medication. At night, keep away from bright light. In the morning, open the shades and go out for a walk, to tell your brain, “This is the start of the day.”You can try OTC sleep aids, but if you suffer for more than three weeks, see a doctor. Drugs are safe when used properly, and better than the consequences of sleeplessness. Gerald Lemole, the alternative source.Stress often plays a role in insomnia, so try to change your reaction to it. Don’t exercise or eat at the end of the day, and avoid or limit caffeine, alcohol and nicotine. Enjoying a warm bath can help. Also, try taking 1,000 mg of calcium (it may calm your muscles and nerves, helping you sleep).Lisa Derosimo, the nutritionist.Go to bed and get up at the same time daily. Keep your room dark and quiet, and remove distractions (no working in bed). Have a cup of herbal (药草) tea, such as chamomile (洋甘菊), to relax your body. And remember, people who eat a healthy diet of whole grains, fruits and vegetables, and low-fat protein feel better and sleep better.Sandra McLanahan, the mind/body professor.Lying in bed, starting from your legs and moving up to your head, tense your muscles once at a time, then release. And try alternate-nostril (鼻孔交换的) breathing. Exhale (呼气) through one nostril, using your fingers to close the opposite nostril. Breathe in and out; then switch back and forth. Both of the ways will help you feel more relaxed, like a rubber band after it’s been stretched.31．What does the underlined word “insomnia” mean?A．Late stay.B．Sleeplessness.C．Tiredness.D．Breath trouble.32．Gerald Lemole thinks that .A．changing your reaction to insomnia will helpB．insomnia is frequently caused by the effect of pressureC．it’s limiting eating that matters mostD．having 1,000 mg of caffeine will help you sleep33．According to Lisa Derosimo, what results in a good sleep?A．Having a regular daily routine.B．Taking various medicines.C．Having a big meal before going to bed.D．Viewing an online live broadcast in bed.34．From the passage we can infer alternate-nostril breathing is a good way to .A．breathe deeplyB．build your bodyC．exercise noseD．relax yourselfWe live in a judgmental world where people are quick to point out the faults and imperfections of others yet seem unaware of their own. Some misguided people believe they have a natural duty to help you to be a better person by telling you what a failure you really are first and then offering suggestions as to how you can improve.So what is the solution to criticism? If you are the one forcing others to feel ashamed of themselves, STOP. Make a conscious decision that rather than focus on the negative aspect of a person’s performance or attitudes, you’ll offer helpful suggestions from the beginning. If I’m painting our living room and making a mess in doing so, I would like my husband to say to me, “This is a tough job. Can I offer a suggestion that might make it easier for you?” rather than having him point’ out what a careless painter. I am and then tell me how I should be doing it.If you are on the receiving end of criticism, the “OK” response is a perfect solution. When someone comments negatively on a task you are doing or a personality issue, a natural response is to defend and attack. However, this approach is rarely effective as it puts both parties on the defensive. Instead, simply reply with “OK”. This brief one-word response acknowledges the other person’s comment without agreeing with it or feeling necessary to engage in a debate about it.It is important to remain emotionally attached to what the other person is saying, to listen without feeling, to be an objective observer. There is much that one can learn from a negative review. You can ask yourself: Did I make a mistake? Could I have done better? Did I give 100%of myself to the task at hand? If so, how can I improve? As for chronic (习惯性的) criticizers: It is important to set strict boundaries (界限) with them. Remove yourself from their presence when necessary.In any event, one can learn to be “OK” with criticism and not allow it to negatively impact their life or relationship with the other party. Examine it for any potential truths, and then ‘ let it go and just be “OK”.35．What does the author want to show by using the example of painting?A．Nobody is perfect.B．The art of criticizing.C．The value of suggestions.D．The harm of criticizing.36．What is the best way to respond when you are criticized by a person?A．Simply say “Thank you”.B．Defend yourself.C．Ignore the comment.D．Just say “OK”.37．You are told to ask yourself some questions in Paragraph 4 so as to .A．better present negative reviews.B．learn from others’ mistakesC．take criticism objectively D．have more confidence in yourself 38．How should you treat people who always criticize others according to the author’s advice?A．Attack them sharply.B．Talk to them politely.C．Stay away from them.D．Be open to their suggestions.There are moments in life when you’re in the middle of-some activity and think, “I love doing this. Love it!” Maybe it happens on the golf course, or camping, or when you’re having dinner at a favorite restaurant. There are so many things to love about modern life.I’m in love with 35 miles per hour.It’s a difficult kind of love to talk about in the present age of online short video and live streaming that constantly promote and glorify images of vehicles with roaring (轰鸣的) engines and smoking tires thundering across city streets in endless pursuit of adventure.My personality has never had a fast-and-crazy side. I vividly recall going to Disneyland as ayoung teenager and being emotionally thrashed (鞭打) on the Matterhorn roller coaster ride. Other kids were howling (叫喊) with delight at the sharp turns and steep drops while I was mentally repeating the phrases “Please be over soon” and “I don’t want to die”.Do not, however, assume I spend most of my road time trembling (颤抖) behind the steering wheel. Freeway fright is not my partner. After 45-plus years on the road, I can handle a vast range of traffic hardships. I’ve had my share of rigid joints and sweaty palms but not one accident since a curving fender (挡泥板) incident in college. I go with the flow.But in private situations, alone on some suburban avenue or country lane, I like to ease off the gas pedal, settle in at a smooth 35 mph.It’s a speed that allows me to appreciate my surroundings because the scenery doesn’t flash by in a blur. There’s also a significant safety factor because slowing down means I have more time to react and avoid holes, bouncing balls, wild animals, or other risks that may appear unexpectedly.This is my way of pushing back against the constantly increasing pace of our high-intensity, on-demand society. Think of it as a car drive on a trail. When you load up. for a trip, you don’t race across the countryside at a full dash. It’s much nicer to travel smoothly and find pleasure in the journey.39．The writer thinks her love of 35 miles per hour .A．doesn’t agree with the modern societyB．is too complex to be accepted by othersC．will become popular after being advertised onlineD．will start a slow movement in society40．The writer mentioned her experience in Disneyland to prove .A．Disneyland is a place where kids enjoy the delight of modern lifeB．she didn’t brave the challenge brought by high speedC．rides make children mentally, wild with joyD．caution is golden rule to avoid accidents41．According to the 5th Paragraph, the writer .A．drove slowly behind other cars on freewayB．couldn’t handle an emergency in drivingC．drove as fast as others on the roadD．experienced a few traffic accidents42．The best title for the passage may be .A．My life in the slow lane B．My habit of driving on roadsC．My special love for racing D．My ‘slow’ pace of lifeAfter years of observing human nature, I have decided that two qualities make the difference between men of great achievement and men of average performance curiosity and discontent. I have never known an outstanding man who lacked either. And I have never known an average man who had both. The two belong together.Together, these deep human urges (驱策力) count for much more that ambition. Galileo was not merely ambitious when he dropped objects of varying weights from the Leaning Tower at Pisa and timed their fall to the ground. Like Galileo, all the great names in history were curious and asked in discontent, “Why? Why? Why?”Fortunately, curiosity and discontent don’t have to be learned. We are born with them and need only recapture them.“The great man” said Mencius (孟子), “is he who does not lose his child’s heart.” Yet most of us do lose it. We stop asking questions. We stop challenging custom. We just follow the crowd. And the crowd desires restful average. It encourages us to occupy our own little corner, to avoid foolish leaps into the dark, to be satisfied.Most of us meet new people, and new ideas, with hesitation. But once having met and liked them, we think how terrible it would have been, had we missed the chance. We will probably have to force ourselves to waken our curiosity and discontent and keep them awake.How should you start? Modestly, so as not to become discouraged. I think of one friend who couldn’t arrange flowers to satisfy herself. She was curious about how the experts did it. How she is one of the experts, writing books on flower arrangement.One way to begin is to answer your own excuses. You haven’t any special ability? Most people don’t; there are only a few geniuses. You haven’t any time? That’s good, because it’s always the people with no time who get things done. Harriet Stowe, mother of six, wrote parts of Uncle Tom’s Cabin while cooking. You’re too old? Remember that Thomas Costain was 57 whenhe published his first novel, and that Grandma Moses showed her first pictures when she was 78.However you start, remember there is no better time to start than right now, for you’ll never be more alive than you are at this moment.43．In writing Paragraph 1, the author aims to________.A．propose a definition B．make a comparisonC．reach a conclusion D．present an argument44．What does the example of Galileo tell us?A．Trial and error leads to the finding of truth.B．Scientists tend to be curious and ambitious.C．Creativity results from challenging authority.D．Greatness comes from a lasting desire to explore.45．What can we learn from Paragraphs 6 and 7?A．Gaining success helps you become an expert.B．The genius tends to get things done creatively.C．Lack of talent and time is no reason for taking no action.D．You should remain modest when approaching perfection.阅读短文，按照题目要求用英语回答问题。
