My brother Joe had a passion for driving cars. Fords in particular. He was especially fond of speed. It was enough to make my mother fear that he was crazy. But she had that fear about everyone, even herself.
When Joe was just a little boy, he would often say to me, “Sister, when I am old enough to get my license and drive my own car, I will fly so fast that angels will run scared.” With a big grin (咧嘴笑), he would imagine the scene.I could have told him it would never happen. No matter how old he got, he would never get a license, never drive a car. But I didn't tell him that.
Joe was born blind. He couldn't see his own face in a mirror. But he could dream like anyone. I didn't want to be the one to dim Joe's dreams. Life would do that for him, soon enough. Until then, didn't he deserve his happiness?
Joe had trouble not just with his eyes, but with his legs. He was born premature (早产的) suffered from disabilities and could not walk until he was 5. That's when he got his first “car”, a red Radio Flyer tricycle that he called his 49 Ford. He couldn't pedal it, so he would push it everywhere, sometimes even falling over.
Growing up is a tug of war between disappointment and surprise, between dreams and reality. By the time Joe was 12, I think he knew he would never get a license. As with the other hard facts of life, he seemed to accept it without question or bitterness, as if it were nothing more than a card drawn at random.
One hot summer day when he was 16, Joe went tapping out the driveway with his stick, finding his way to my stepfather's 49 Ford. He ran his hand along the car, felt the heat of the metal, opened the door and climbed in.
He looked good.
Under the seat, he discovered a six-pack of Budweiser (百威啤酒). And he drank all six cans. He felt inside the car, found the keys, shouted, “Hooweece!” and fired it up.
I have heard various versions of this story. They all boil down to this: the Ford's engine roared. My mother fainted (昏厥). My stepfather rushed outside.
And my brother, after a moment of pure joy, threw up all over the car. Fortunately, for everyone, the Ford didn't move an inch. But to this day, Joe still swears that when he found those keys and fired that old engine up, he heard the angels starting to flee.
40. What do we know about Joe?
A. He learned to drive at school.
B. He is keen on fast-speed driving.
C. His mental development is slower than others.
D. He had a car accident when he was 5.
41. What did the author do after finding out about Joe's dream?
A. She made fun of him.
B. She told him to face reality.
C. She let him dream his dream.
D. She encouraged him to ride a tricycle.
42. What does the underlined sentence infer?
A. Joe thought all this was fate.
B. Joe preferred to playing cards.
C. Joe accepted it with more questions or bitterness.
D. Joe do it on purpose as if he would draw this card.
43. What does it mean when Joe says he heard angels flee?
A. He is not living in reality.
B. His family members are like angels to him.
C. He realizes he fell asleep inside the car.
D. He believes he realized his dream of driving fast.
44. Which word best describes Joe?
A. Positive. B. Generous. C. Emotional. D. Humorous.
C
You watch a sad film and get caught up in your emotions. You cry your eyes out at the dramatic plot — you feel sad for the characters if they suffer, or happy for them when they are successful. It is only when the movie is over that you realize that what you were watching is not real.
But why couldn’t you accept that when you were so absorbed in the movie? It was reported in Science Daily this week that scientists at Case Western Reserve University, US, discovered that people simply cannot think emotionally and logically at the same time.
It has long been known that something different goes on in our brain when we use logic, rather than responding to something emotionally. Thinking logically is a step-by-step process, in which people make decisions through reasoning and find answers rationally. When we think emotionally or empathize (有同感), we look at things from someone else’s point of view and try to feel their pain.
Now scientists have found that thinking logically and emotionally are like the two ends of a seesaw (跷跷板). When we’re busy empathizing, the part of the brain used for cold, hard analysis is suppressed. And it’s also true the other way round.
To come to this conclusion, scientists gathered 45 people — men and women — to take brain scans as they solved different kinds of puzzles. Some of the puzzles were tough and involved math and physics and others were social problems that required participants to put themselves in other people’s shoes.
Scientists found that when participants were doing a math problem, the region in their brain that is associated with logical thinking lit up, and when asked to make emotional decisions, the region for emotional thinking lit up. But the most interesting part is that when asked to solve problems that required both logical and emotional responses, the participants always used one of the regions at a time while the other one went dark.
“Empathetic and analytic thinking are mutually (相互之间地) exclusive (排斥的) in the brain,” said Anthony Jack, leader of the study. “You don't have to favor one, but cycle efficiently between them, and employ the right network at the right time.”
However, people sometimes ended up using the wrong one. This explains why some people are good at solving complex math problems but have poor social skills. And why even the smartest people get taken in by fake but touching stories.
45. Why does the author mention watching movies at the beginning of the article?
A. To show that we are easily moved by things that are not real.
B. To show that sometimes we only use emotional thinking.
C. To introduce the research based on this kind of experiences.
D. To prove emotional thinking is powerful.
46. Scientists at Case Western Reserve University, US proved ________ through their recent tests.
A. logical thinking works differently from emotional thinking
B. logical thinking is much more efficient than emotional thinking
C. logical thinking and emotional thinking take turns to function independently
D. logical thinking and emotional thinking could work together
47. The underlined word “suppressed” in Paragraph 4 means ________.
A. starting to react actively
B. being completely damaged
C. to prevent something from working effectively
D. to obtain an opposite function
48. We can conclude from the last two paragraphs that ________.
A. people have to frequently switch between different types of thinking
B. adopting the wrong thinking mode could have bad results
C. people could only either have excellent logical thinking or emotional thinking
D. people who think logically could easily be manipulated
49. What is probably the best title?
A. Movies and Your Emotions B. Math and Physics
C. Your Heart vs Your Mind D. Logical Thinking
D
Singles looking for love in China might once have wandered around parks to glimpse posters hung by parents with the details of their unmarried children. Now the authorities in Luanzhou, a city of 570,000 in the northern industrial province of Hebei, are playing Cupid, building a database for young people looking to find that special someone.
Those who want to take part in the Youth Happiness Project are asked to fill out a form with personal details, including age, financial situation and family background, to help the authorities find them a suitor. “Blind date corners” will be created in several of the city's parks and botanical gardens.
China has been trying hard to deal with low fertility and marriage rates; in 2020 there were 8million weddings, down from 13.5 million in 2013. The most recent census revealed that nearly 35million more single men than women, about half of them within the “marriageable age” range.
Last year in May the government announced that it would allow all couples to have three children, up from two, and in September it scrapped fines for having more.
Many couples prefer sons, which led to high rates of femicide under the previous one-child policy.
The Youth Happiness Project was revealed this week in response to a question on an online message board for leaders run by the official Communist Party paper People's Daily.

A. In China singles looking for love used to wander around parks all the time.
B. Parents in China would hang posters with the details of their unmarried children.
C “Blind date corners” have been created in some parks and gardens for plants.
D. In China a city is helping young singles to find the one by building a database for them.
51. Which of the following is not included in the form required by the Youth Happiness Project?
A. Age. B. Financial situation. C. Family background. D. Suitor.
52. What can we learn about the fertility and marriage rates in China?
A. In 2020 there were 13.5 million weddings while in 2013 there were only 8 million.
B. China has been working on dealing with low birthrate and marriage rates.
C. Nearly 35 million more single men than women, about half of them beyond the marriageable age" range.
D. The most recent census made people aware that nearly 35 million more men than women.
53. The underlined word “scrapped” in Paragraph 3 can be understood as________.
A. took in B. changed into C. let in D. got rid of
54. Based on the official media the reason for young singles who have to fight to find partners is that________.
A. young singles are engaged in their work
B. the government could not organize activities to help young singles
C. young singles are busy with their friends
D. the young are particular about finding partners
55. What does the author most likely want to tell us?
A. The authorities in Luanzhou are about to playing Cupid.
B. The Chinese government announced it would allow all couples to stick to one-child policy.
C. The Youth Happiness Project in Luanzhou is to help the authorities find young Chinese singles a suitor.

My brother Joe had a passion for driving cars. Fords in particular. He was especially fond of speed. It was enough to make my mother fear that he was crazy. But she had that fear about everyone, even herself.
When Joe was just a little boy, he would often say to me, “Sister, when I am old enough to get my license and drive my own car, I will fly so fast that angels will run scared.” With a big grin (咧嘴笑), he would imagine the scene.I could have told him it would never happen. No matter how old he got, he would never get a license, never drive a car. But I didn't tell him that.
Joe was born blind. He couldn't see his own face in a mirror. But he could dream like anyone. I didn't want to be the one to dim Joe's dreams. Life would do that for him, soon enough. Until then, didn't he deserve his happiness?
Joe had trouble not just with his eyes, but with his legs. He was born premature (早产的) suffered from disabilities and could not walk until he was 5. That's when he got his first “car”, a red Radio Flyer tricycle that he called his 49 Ford. He couldn't pedal it, so he would push it everywhere, sometimes even falling over.
Growing up is a tug of war between disappointment and surprise, between dreams and reality. By the time Joe was 12, I think he knew he would never get a license. As with the other hard facts of life, he seemed to accept it without question or bitterness, as if it were nothing more than a card drawn at random.
One hot summer day when he was 16, Joe went tapping out the driveway with his stick, finding his way to my stepfather's 49 Ford. He ran his hand along the car, felt the heat of the metal, opened the door and climbed in.
He looked good.
Under the seat, he discovered a six-pack of Budweiser (百威啤酒). And he drank all six cans. He felt inside the car, found the keys, shouted, “Hooweece!” and fired it up.
I have heard various versions of this story. They all boil down to this: the Ford's engine roared. My mother fainted (昏厥). My stepfather rushed outside.
And my brother, after a moment of pure joy, threw up all over the car. Fortunately, for everyone, the Ford didn't move an inch. But to this day, Joe still swears that when he found those keys and fired that old engine up, he heard the angels starting to flee.
40. What do we know about Joe?
A. He learned to drive at school.
B. He is keen on fast-speed driving.
C. His mental development is slower than others.
D. He had a car accident when he was 5.
41. What did the author do after finding out about Joe's dream?
A. She made fun of him.
B. She told him to face reality.
C. She let him dream his dream.
D. She encouraged him to ride a tricycle.
42. What does the underlined sentence infer?
A. Joe thought all this was fate.
B. Joe preferred to playing cards.
C. Joe accepted it with more questions or bitterness.
D Joe do it on purpose as if he would draw this card.
43. What does it mean when Joe says he heard angels flee?
A. He is not living in reality.
B. His family members are like angels to him.
C. He realizes he fell asleep inside the car.
D. He believes he realized his dream of driving fast.
44. Which word best describes Joe?

【40题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段第一、二、三句话“My brother Joe had a passion for driving cars. Fords in particular. He was especially fond of speed. （我弟弟乔很喜欢开车。尤其是福特。他特别喜欢速度。）”可知，作者的弟弟喜欢开车，而且特别喜欢速度，所以他热衷高速驾驶。故选B。
【41题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段第二、三句话“But he could dream like anyone. I didn't want to be the one to dim Joe's dreams.（但他可以像任何人一样做梦。我不想成为那个让乔的梦想黯淡的人。）”可推知，作者知道他的弟弟的不能像别人一样实现梦想，但是她没有告诉他事实，想让他一直怀有他的梦想。故选C。
【42题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划横线的句子前面一部分“As with the other hard facts of life, he see med to accept it without question or bitterness（就像生活中的其他残酷事实一样，他似乎毫无疑问、毫无怨言地接受了它）”可推知，乔接受了他不能实现梦想的这个残酷的现实，认为这都是命中注定的。故选A。
【43题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段第一句话“When Joe was just a little boy, he would often say to me, “Sister, when I am old enough to get my license and drive my own car, I will fly so fast that angels will run scared.”（当乔还是个小男孩的时候，他经常对我说：“姐姐，当我长大到可以拿到驾照并开自己的车的时候，我会飞得很快，天使们会害怕地跑。”）”可知，乔小时后的梦想是拿到驾照后把车开的飞快，天使们都会害怕的跑掉，所以当他提到“他听到天使都逃跑了”这句话的时候，他应该觉得他实现了他快速驾驶的梦想。故选D。
【44题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段最后一句话“As with the other hard facts of life, he see med to accept it without question or bitterness, as if it were nothing more than a card drawn at random.（就像生活中的其他残酷事实一样，他似乎毫无疑问、毫无怨言地接受了它，就好像这不过是命中注定一样。）”可知，乔知道自己不能实现自己的梦想后，依然接受了残酷的现实，说明乔是一个积极的人。故选A。
C
You watch a sad film and get caught up in your emotions. You cry your eyes out at the dramatic plot — you feel sad for the characters if they suffer or happy for them when they are successful. It is only when the movie is over that you realize that what you were watching is not real.
But why couldn’t you accept that when you were so absorbed in the movie? It was reported in Science Daily this week that scientists at Case Western Reserve University, US, discovered that people simply cannot think emotionally and logically at the same time.
It has long been known that something different goes on in our brain when we use logic, rather than responding to something emotionally. Thinking logically is a step-by-step process, in which people make decisions through reasoning and find answers rationally. When we think emotionally or empathize (有同感), we look at things from someone else’s point of view and try to feel their pain.
Now scientists have found that thinking logically and emotionally are like the two ends of a seesaw (跷跷板). When we’re busy empathizing, the part of the brain used for cold, hard analysis is suppressed. And it’s also true the other way round.
To come to this conclusion, scientists gathered 45 people — men and women — to take brain scans as they solved different kinds of puzzles. Some of the puzzles were tough and involved math and physics and others were social problems that required participants to put themselves in other people’s shoes.
Scientists found that when participants were doing a math problem, the region in their brain that is associated with logical thinking lit up, and when asked to make emotional decisions, the region for emotional thinking lit up. But the most interesting part is that when asked to solve problems that required both logical and emotional responses, the participants always used one of the regions at a time while the other one went dark.
“Empathetic and analytic thinking are mutually (相互之间地) exclusive (排斥的) in the brain,” said Anthony Jack, leader of the study. “You don't have to favor one, but cycle efficiently between them, and employ the right network at the right time.”
However, people sometimes ended up using the wrong one. This explains why some people are good at solving complex math problems but have poor social skills. And why even the smartest people get taken in by fake but touching stories.
45. Why does the author mention watching movies at the beginning of the article?
A. To show that we are easily moved by things that are not real.
B. To show that sometimes we only use emotional thinking.
C. To introduce the research based on this kind of experiences.
D. To prove emotional thinking is powerful.
46. Scientists at Case Western Reserve University, US proved ________ through their recent tests.
A. logical thinking works differently from emotional thinking
B. logical thinking is much more efficient than emotional thinking
C. logical thinking and emotional thinking take turns to function independently
D. logical thinking and emotional thinking could work together
47. The underlined word “suppressed” in Paragraph 4 means ________.
A. starting to react actively
B. being completely damaged
C. to prevent something from working effectively
D. to obtain an opposite function
48. We can conclude from the last two paragraphs that ________.
A. people have to frequently switch between different types of thinking
B. adopting the wrong thinking mode could have bad results
C. people could only either have excellent logical thinking or emotional thinking
D. people who think logically could easily be manipulated
49. What is probably the best title?
A. Movies and Your Emotions B. Math and Physics
C. Your Heart vs Your Mind D. Logical Thinking
【答案】45. C 46. C 47. C 48. B 49. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了逻辑思维和情感思维就像跷跷板的两端，不能同时工作。
【45题详解】
推理判断题。文中第一段描述了观影人在看电影时情绪会受到电影情节影响，只有到电影结束时才会意识到自己所看到并不是真实的，第二段中“But why couldn’t you accept that when you were so absorbed in the movie?（但是当你如此专注于电影的时候，你为什么不能接受这一点呢?）”就这一现象提出问题，并引出研究结论“It was reported in Science Daily this week that scientists at Case Western Reserve University, US, discovered that people simply cannot think emotionally and logically at the same time.(据本周《科学日报》报道，美国凯斯西储大学的科学家们发现，人们无法同时进行情感和逻辑思考)”，由此推知，作者在文章开头提到看电影是为了引出基于这类经验的研究。故选C。
【46题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中“Now scientists have found that thinking logically and emotionally are like the two ends of a seesaw (跷跷板) . When we’re busy empathizing, the part of the brain used for cold hard analysis is suppressed. And it’s also true the other way round.（现在科学家们发现，逻辑思维和情感思维就像跷跷板的两端。当我们忙于移情时，大脑中用于冷静、强硬分析的部分就会被抑制。反过来也一样）”可推知，美国凯斯西储大学的科学家发现逻辑思维和情感思维就像跷跷板的两端，轮流独立发挥作用，故选C。
【47题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第四段“Now scientists have found that thinking logically and emotionally are like the two ends of a seesaw (跷跷板). When we’re busy empathizing, the part of the brain used for cold. hard analysis is suppressed. (现在科学家们发现，逻辑思维和情感思维就像跷跷板的两端。当我们忙于移情时，大脑中用于冷静、强硬分析的部分就会被suppressed)”中“two ends of a seesaw”可知，跷跷板的原理就是一边升，一边降，句中把逻辑思维和情感思维比喻为“跷跷板的两端”，由此推知，当我们忙于移情，情感思维端活跃时，逻辑思维端就会“降”，受到压制，所以句中划线词suppressed应该指“压制；阻止”，与C项“阻止某事有效地工作”意思相近，故选C。
【48题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“However, people sometimes ended up using the wrong one. This explains why some people are good at solving complex math problems but have poor social skills. And why even the smartest people get taken in by fake but touching stories.(然而，人们有时会使用错误的思维模式。这就解释了为什么有些人擅长解决复杂的数学问题，但社交能力却很差。以及为什么即使是最聪明的人也会被虚假但感人的故事所欺骗)”可推知，采用错误的思维模式可能会产生不良后果，故选B。
【49题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章主要介绍了逻辑思维和情感思维就像跷跷板的两端，不能同时工作，C项“Your Heart vs Your Mind”中“Your Heart”代表“情感思维”，“Your Mind”代表“逻辑思维”，是最佳标题。故选C。
D

Those who want to take part in the Youth Happiness Project are asked to fill out a form with personal details, including age, financial situation and family background, to help the authorities find them a suitor. “Blind date corners” will be created in several of the city's parks and botanical gardens.
China has been trying hard to deal with low fertility and marriage rates; in 2020 there were 8million weddings, down from 13.5 million in 2013. The most recent census revealed that nearly 35million more single men than women, about half of them within the “marriageable age” range.
Last year in May the government announced that it would allow all couples to have three children, up from two, and in September it scrapped fines for having more.
Many couples prefer sons, which led to high rates of femicide under the previous one-child policy.
The Youth Happiness Project was revealed this week in response to a question on an online message board for leaders run by the official Communist Party paper People's Daily.
The citizen who posted the message expressed hope that the government could organize activities to help young singles who are struggling to meet partners because they are too busy with work, according to state media. According to the authorities, party committees have made efforts to promote marriage among young people as well.

【答案】Dear Peter，
Last month was my school’s “Reading Month”, which required every student at my school to read at least on classic book during the month.
At the end of the month, students would gather in groups and discuss the books they read. It was a great time to learn more knowledge, cultivate our reading interest, and exchange different opinions with each other. I finally had the time to finish The Little Prince, written by the French author Antoine de Saint-Exupery. It tells the story of a boy from space who travels around the universe to meet people of every background. He views each world through his innocent eyes. The words of wisdom in the book, such as “One sees clearly only with the heart”, touched me deeply.
Looking back, I really enjoyed the adventure with the little prince, all thanks to this “Reading Month”.
Yours，
Li Jin
