Kala has deep ties to her Hawaiian roots. Her ancestors navigated (航行) the oceans for centuries using their knowledge of the stars, the sun, the currents and the wind. It’s not that she does it in a canoe without technology, but rather uses the natural technology around her. It’s called Way finding, and was taught to her by her father.

“My father was my foundation, my rock.” she says of her first voyage with him from Oahu to Lahaina in a traditional canoe. He taught her how to read the stars, the ocean swells and how to use them to hold the course. “Over 200 stars have specific names and purposes when you are Way finding. You have to look at each and determine if they are rising or setting. You know this star and the direction it represents. If you can do that, you can use it as a tool to orient (确定方向).” Kala added.

Kala Tanaka sailed the canoe in the ocean for up to three weeks. During the day, Kala used the sun until it hit a certain height. When she got closer to land, she looked for certain species of land birds and clouds that indicated there was land below. When Kala sailed she felt “I feel very connected to the crew and the canoe. We’re a family.” The longer voyage required Kala to spend hours studying the day and the night skies. It was demanding physical work. But it also had its moments of awe. For Kala, the beauty was in tying together the past and the present to enjoy the moment. So when she was not sailing, she was teaching Way finding skills to school-aged children in hopes of preserving the skills her ancestors relied on.

It’s easy to be lost in the immediacy of the technology of our day, to be consumed by screens and miss the nature that unfolds around us. But if we will take the time to look up, to see the stars and the sun, the way the clouds move, the miracle of life beneath and above us, we will discover something deep inside us, something that will always lead to happiness.

24．How does Kala navigate the ocean in a canoe?

A．By observing the natural elements around.

B．By following the course of ocean currents.

C．By using hi-technology navigation devices.

D．By recalling the first voyage with her father.

C．It was school children’s favorite. D．It represented a kind of innovation.

26．What does the author suggest we do?

A．Enjoy the screens. B．Explore the universe.

C．Get close to nature. D．Keep the earth clean.

27．What is the best title of the text?

A．Finding Our Way B．Navigating the Ocean

C．The Wisdom from Ancestors D．An Unforgettable Journey

The title of psychiatrist Anna Lembke’s book, Dopamine Nation: Finding Balance in the Age of Indulgence, refers to the crucial yet destructive role that dopamine (多巴胺) plays in modern society.

Dopamine, the main chemical involved in addiction, is secreted from nerve tracts (神经束) in the brain following a rewarding experience such as finding food, clothing or shelter. Nature has designed our brains to feel pleasure when these experiences happen because they increase our odds of survival.

But the days when our species struggled for survival are over. Dopamine Nation explains how modern life has made us vulnerable to dopamine related addiction. Today, social media is often the addictive substance of choice.

Lembke found that feel-good substances and behaviors increase dopamine release. The brain responds by decreasing overall dopamine transmission. Repeated exposure to similar stimuli creates a chronic dopamine shortage state, wherein we’re less able to experience pleasure. There are two risk factors for addiction: easy access and speedy reward. The smartphone is like a heroin (海洛因) needle, delivering digital dopamine for a wired generation. It delivers images to our visual cortex (大脑皮层) that are tough to resist. Social-media apps like TikTok cause the release of large amounts of dopamine, just like heroin, making us vulnerable to overconsumption.

Our brains cannot process the comparisons the virtual world demands. We can become overwhelmed by our inability to measure up to “perfect” people who exist only in the Matrix, and may sink into depression. Social media often feels good while we’re using it, but horrible when we stop.

Luckily, there is an antidote: a timeout—at least for a day. However, more time is needed away from our drug of choice, whether it’s heroin or Instagram. A monthlong dopamine fast will decrease the anxiety that social media causes, and enhance our ability to enjoy more modest rewards again.

28．What’ s the function of dopamine in human’s struggle to survive?

A．To enrich people’s daily necessities like shelter.

B．To reveal the truth of humans’ brain nerve tracts.

C．To reduce the possibility of the addition to dopamine.

D．To maximize the chance of survival with positive emotion.

29．What may be the result of smartphone addiction according to the passage?

A．Visual reaction will slow down.

B．Negative emotion will take place.

C．Dopamine release will be interrupted.

D．The brain will consume more energy.

30．What does the underlined word “antidote” probably mean in the last paragraph?

A．cure B．expectation C．consequence D．reference

31．What may be the best title of the passage?

A．Lembke’s Book- A Big Hit?

B．Brain- Adapted or Declining?

C．Dopamine- Balance of This Age?

D．Social Media—Modern Day Heroin?

The Dead Sea is an amazing wonder of the world:the lowest exposed spot on Earth,where the water is so full of salt that bathers float right to the top.

But today the Dead Sea is drying up, and its banks are collapsing. The water level is dropping close to 4 feet every year. The main part of the lake is now around 950 feet deep—about 15%shallower, and a third of the surface area, compared to its shape half a century ago.

“You’ve seen a living disaster in front of your eyes,“ says Jake Ben Zaken, an Israeli who says he operates the only passenger boats on the Dead Sea.

As the lake recedes, it changes the landscape around it in both beautiful and harmful ways. Beautiful salt formations are revealed where the water dries up. But there are also terrible scenes of beaches and parking lots swallowed up by sinkholes along the shore.

Solutions have been proposed to replenish(填满)the Dead Sea, but no significant action has been taken to prevent its further destruction. Climate change makes recovery of the lake seem even further out of reach.

The Dead Sea is a landlocked lake that’s partly in Jordan, Israel and the Israeli-occupied West Bank. The lake—named the Dead Sea because it contains too much salt and is not suitable for aquatic(水生的)life—has been drying up for decades.

”It’s a human-made problem," say environmental researchers and officials. In a region where water is rare, Israel, Jordan and Syria in the last several decades have diverted(改道)the freshwater sources that feed the Dead Sea, for drinking water and irrigation. Plus, Israeli and Jordanian companies evaporate(蒸发)Dead Sea water to harvest its rich minerals for export. The part of the lake with Israeli hotels, a popular spot for tourists to float in Dead Sea water, is actually an artificial evaporation pool in the lake’s southern basin.

32．How deep was the main part of the Dead Sea 50 years ago probably?

A．About 800 feet. B．About 1,000 feet.

C．About 1,100 feet. D．About 1,300 feet.

33．What does the underlined word“recedes”in paragraph 4 probably mean?

A．Goes up. B．Gets popular. C．Flows over. D．Becomes smaller.

34．What’s the last paragraph mainly about?

A．The solutions to the problem. B．The future of the Dead Sea.

C．The reasons for the problem. D．The situation of the Dead Sea.

35．Which is the most suitable title for the text?

A．The Dead Sea Is Dying B．The Dead Sea Is Recovering

C．The Dead Sea—a Salty Lake with Minerals D．The Dead Sea—a Place for Tourists to Float

Why Boundaries at Work Are Essential

What is a boundary, you ask? A boundary is a limit defining you in relation to someone or something. ____36____ If you have informed someone that this is your office space, your desk, or your chair, you have attempted to set physical boundaries.

Letting co-workers know you are not comfortable shaking their hands or hugging them at a holiday party, especially with Covid at this time, is another example of setting a physical boundary. It is often easier to understand a physical boundary. Emotional or mental boundaries may be subtler (更微妙的). ____37____

Emotional boundaries are related to our feelings and how something or someone’s behavior affects us. For example, if a boss treats you disrespectfully by yelling at you or a colleague frequently interrupts you in meetings, you are likely to feel hurt, embarrassed, and perhaps angry. Understandably, by having a courageous conversation with both your boss and co-worker about their behavior, the impact it has on you, and your expectations regarding future behavior, you are setting healthy emotional boundaries for yourself at work.

Sometimes we set a boundary that is a combination of both a physical and emotional one. ____38____ One example of this is being repeatedly asked to work late during the week/weekends or while on vacation. Another example is being required to see too many clients or patients to the point we feel tired at the end of the day and exhausted by Friday. Often, the above workplace demands lead to increased stress and a high potential for burnout (倦怠) over time.

Mental boundaries are related to our beliefs, values, cultural norms, ethics (道德), and standards. For example, you value a workplace culture that treats employees and clients with respect and dignity and acts ethically. After six months, you realize that company leaders are repeatedly behaving in ways not consistent with this. ____39____ Over time, this may lead to significant stress and physical symptoms within.

____40____ Boundaries serve many functions. They help protect us, clarify our responsibility, preserve our physical and emotional energy, and live our values and standards. Learning the skill of boundary setting helps empower us to prioritize our values and well-being and better manage our stress. Identifying, setting, and maintaining boundaries are skills — valuable skills that, unfortunately, we are often not taught in school or the workplace.

A．Why are boundaries important?

B．However, they are equally, if not more, important.

C．Therefore, we need to tell the difference between them.

D．Setting a boundary in the above example may be quite helpful.

E．Boundaries can be physical, mental, emotional, tangible, or intangible.

F．Your values and ethical standards don’t match with your company’s, which likely will lead to internal conflict.

G．Such boundaries often involve being asked to do more than we feel capable of for an extended period of time.

A few weeks ago, I went out to dinner with several friends. The waitress noticed my aids and whispered in my friend’s ear, “Is there anything else I can do for this lady?” It felt ______54______to me, who is at least an independent and hearing person with aids. While I sort of______55______ her deaf awareness, she______56______me in some way. She just wanted to communicate with my friends rather than talk______57______ to me.

The experience made me realize the______58______ that deaf people face. I think I owe a (an)______59______ to the deaf community for not wearing my hearing aids confidently. I also see the need to build a more deaf-friendly society and I will do what I can to______60______this.

第二节 语法填空（共10小题，每小题1.5分，满分15分）

阅读下面材料，在答题卡相应位置处填入适当的内容（1个单词）或括号内单词的正确形式。

Our planet is heating up due to something    61 (call) the greenhouse effect. This is one of the reasons why Earth is seeing more extreme weather events, such as heatwaves, forest fires and floods each year. But what exactly is the greenhouse effect, and    62 can we do to reduce it?

Let's first think about a greenhouse – you may have one in your garden! It's a glass structure that protects    63 (plant) against low temperatures by trapping heat inside. But, while this helps your plants grow, Earth is trapping heat in    64 same way, and it's causing global warming. When fossil fuels, such as coal, oil and gas, are burnt for power, carbon dioxide is released as a waste product. It    65 (enter) the atmosphere and acts like a blanket around the planet, which means heat radiation can't escape and the temperature increases.

The impact of gases on the Earth's climate was first investigated in the 1820s. Eunice Foote, a scientist and women's rights activist, tested the effects of sunlight on different gases that she put into glass cylinders. Her results    66 (show) that carbon dioxide traps heat more    67 other gases. The idea of the greenhouse effect was born.

So, what can we do    68 (reduce) the greenhouse effect? The UN recommends using more energy-efficient electrical appliances at home and switching to LED lightbulbs. Also, by washing your clothes at 30° instead of a   69 (high) temperature, around 40% less electricity is used over a year, according to the Energy Saving Trust. A change in diet is also something to consider. The charity A Well-Fed World, claim that plant-based foods, as opposed to meat and dairy, need less land and water to be produced. So, switching saves energy and lowers emissions,    70  contribute to climate change.

We only have one planet, so let's try and take care of it as much as we can.
