Despite the fact that there has never been s much wealth r s many wealthy peple in the wrld, many f the wrld’s pr peple still live in material and energy pverty. Culd yu and I cut back n ur cnsumptin (消耗) s as t make sme space fr thers t increase theirs?
I am sure we culd. But, unfrtunately, everything abut ur ecnmic systems is set up t make us believe and behave therwise. The default (默认) mindset is that there is nthing wrng with wanting ever newer and mre expensive things as lng as we can affrd them.
Lk arund yu fr a mment. N sciety anywhere befre lived like this. Further, since ur spending must necessarily be smene else’s incme, we tell urselves that we actually make the wrld a better place every time we buy anther pair f shes r trade in a car fr the latest mdel. And that’s the tug (拉) f war that plays itself ut cruelly in ur lives, as ne side f ur age cries ut “less”, and frm the ther side cmes the answering cry “mre”.
Of curse, wanting t live a better life is deeply ingrained in human nature. Otherwise, we wuld never have generated the prgress that has brught us t ur present statin.
But nw we shuld think deeply abut hw and why we cnsume.
After all, even the earliest thinkers in the histry f ecnmic—including Adam Smith—thught, having mre des nt always translate int being happier. Evidence shws that many peple in the develping wrld, despite being hard-up, reprt being just as happy as thse in the materially rich scieties f the West.
S what nw? The answer, perhaps, is t try t be rich in the enjyment f things, nt in the accumulatin (堆积) f them. A pair f gd shes, lightly creased (起皱) but als carefully plished (擦亮) nce a mnth a meal cked at hme instead f a trip t McDnald’s—such as these lie ur act f saving frm the virus f cmpulsive (强迫性的) cnsumptin.

Cgnitive Prcessing Therapy(CPT), a lng-term psychlgical therapy, is a specific type f cgnitive behaviral therapy which reduces pst-traumatic stress disrder (创伤后应激障碍) symptms after natural disasters. Typically, CPT is delivered ver 12 sessins t help patients learn hw t mdify negative attitudes and practices related t their trauma. The gal is that the patient then creates a new, mre psitive view and understanding f the traumatic event, which reduces n-ging negative effects n the patient’s current life. It specifically fcuses n the cre trauma themes f safety, trust, pwer and cntrl, etc.
Delivered bth individually and in structured grup sessins, it allws fr multiple different paths t receive effective treatments. In sme studies, it has shwn t be helpful in cases where medicine alne has nt wrked. Because CPT fcuses n retraining thughts and behavirs t frm practical strategies that can be applied t everyday life. Cmpared t ther talk-therapies, it has been especially successful, because it can be cmpleted in a brief perid f time, allwing fr a lwer patient drput rate. It als enhances brain cnnectivity, which lessens lng-term impacts f trauma. This increased cnnectivity is why cgnitive behaviral therapy is ften argued t be mre effective than medicine.
On the ther hand, there are als multiple disadvantages t CPT. Due t its structured nature, it may nt be suitable fr peple with mre cmplex mental health needs r learning difficulties. Additinally, since it invlves facing up t emtins and fears, patients may experience initial perids f additinal anxiety r discmfrt. Sme therapists als argue that because it nly addresses current prblems and specific issues it des nt address pssible fundamental causes f mental health cnditins, and because it fcuses n the individual’s capacity t change themselves it des nt address wider system prblems that have a significant impact n a patient’s health and well-being.
Hwever, fcusing mainly n pst-natural disasters, regardless f pre-disaster health, CPT has been repeatedly prven t be a rather successful treatment apprach. Althugh there have nt been studies generalizing CPT fr children, it is an effective treatment fr adults. The clear effectiveness f CPT demnstrates the imprtance f patient-specific therapies that are unique t the experiences f individual patients.
8、Accrding t the passage, CPT is intended t help patients _________.
A. learn hw t mdify varius negative attitudes and practices
B. cultivate a psitive view and understanding f the traumatic events
C. minimize n-ging negative effects n their previus and current life

Despite grwing cncerns ver tiny bits f plastic filling the wrld’s waterways, the lng-term envirnmental effects f that waste remain unclear. Nw an experiment n freshwater sediment (沉积物) cmmunities expsed t micrplastics fr ver a year helps clarify hw harmful this pllutin can be.
Researchers put trays (托盘) f sediment littered with different amunts f plystyrene (a very light sft plastic) particles (颗粒) — ranging frm 0 t 5 percent plastic — in the bttm f an utdr waterway where bugs, snails and ther little creatures clnized the mud. After 15 mnths, fewer rganisms were fund living in the trays with 5 percent plystyrene than in trays with less plastic, largely because fewer Naididae wrms lived in the mst plluted mud. The trays with 0 t 0.5 percent micrplastic averaged between abut 500 and 800 wrms per tray, while mud with 5 percent plastic averaged fewer than 300, researchers reprted January 31 in Science Advances.
That reductin in Naididae wrms suggests that severe micrplastic pllutin can thrw freshwater ecsystems ut f balance. The 5 percent plastic cncentratin where researchers saw a majr drp in the Naididae wrm ppulatin has mre pllutin than what is typically fund in freshwater sediment, says study cauthr Bart Kelmans, wh studies aquatic eclgy at Wageningen University & Research in the Netherlands.
“It’s a really imprtant piece f wrk,” says Richard Thmpsn, wh studies envirnmental effects f plastic pllutin at the University f Plymuth in England but was nt invlved in the study. “Mst f ur understanding abut the impacts f small pieces f plastic cmes frm labratry studies ver several weeks. The new experiment gets clser t assessing micrplastic’s lng-term, real-wrld effects,” he says.
Just because the researchers didn’t bserve a significant effect n these freshwater cmmunities at lwer plastic cncentratins “desn’t mean that there are n effects,” says Ana Luísa Patrfci Silva, an ectxiclgist at the University f Aveir in Prtugal nt invlved in the wrk. Simply keeping a cunt f the rganisms living in mud with a certain amunt f pllutin desn’t rule ut the pssibility that micrplastics weaken the creatures’ ability t functin nrmally, she says.
12、What’s the purpse f the experiment?
A. T clear up the micrplastics in waterways.
B. T reduce peple’s cncerms ver plastic pllutin.
C. T see hw wrms live in harmny with each ther.
D. T identify the harmful effect f plastic in waterways.
13、What can we learn frm paragraph 2?
A. The thery f the experiment.
B. The prcess f the experiment.
C. The participants f the experiment.
D. The significance f the experiment.
14、The authr tells us that Naididae wrms_______.
A. are the mst sensitive t plastic
B. are nt affected by plastic pllutin
C. are a sign f freshwater ecsystem balance
D. remain least in water with 1 percent plastic
15、What’s Ana’s attitude twards the findings?
A. Favrable.B. Skeptical.C. Ambiguus.D. Uncaring.

2、答案：C
解析：细节理解题。根据“MUSIC-ORCHESTRAL”部分第三栏“The Apll Orchestra welcmes vilist Rbert Diaz t perfrm Jennifer Higdn's Grammy-winning Vila Cncert.”（阿波罗管弦乐团欢迎中提琴手Rbert Diaz演奏Jennifer Higdn的赢得格莱美奖的中提琴协奏曲）和第四栏中“Chevy Chase Presbyterian Church,”（在Chevy Chase Presbyterian教堂）可知，在Chevy Chase Presbyterian教堂你能欣赏到Jennifer Higdn的演奏的赢得格莱美奖的中提琴协奏曲。故选C。
3、答案：B
解析：推理判断题。根据表格的标题“The Guide t the Lively Arts”（生动的艺术指南）可知，文 章介绍了一些艺术形式，所以可推知文章可能在对音乐爱好者宣传册上发现。故选B。
4、答案：A
解析：推理判断题。前两段提出了让大家减少消费的倡议，但由于受到一些观念的影响，人们觉得只要支付得起，想消费更新、更贵的东西是没错的，即“人们倾向于不理性地消费”。
5、答案：B
解析：词义猜测题。第四段提到，想过上更好的生活的想法在人们心中根深蒂固，要不然我们也永远不会取得现在的进步。由此可知ingrained应该是“扎根；使根深蒂固”的意思。
6、答案：C
解析：推理判断题。作者在最后一段建议大家要试着尽情享受已有的物品，而非不断地囤积商品，即“享受我们所拥有的东西”。
7、答案：D
解析：推理判断题。文章介绍了当今人们的消费方式，分析了原因和趋势，并倡议人们理性消费，由此可知，本文应该是出自报纸的经济板块。
8、答案：B

9、答案：C
解析：细节理解题。根据文章第二段 "Cmpared t ther talk-therapies, it has been especially successful, because it can be cmpleted in a brief perid f time , allwing fr a lwer patient drput rate. It als enhances brain cnnectivity, which lessens lng-term impacts f trauma. This increased cnnectivity is why cgnitive behaviral therapy is ften argued t be mre effective than medicine.（与其他谈话疗法相比，它特别成功，因为它可以在很短的时间内完成，允许较低的患者退出率。它还能增强大脑的连通性，从而减少创伤的长期影响。这种增强的连通性就是为什么认知行为疗法经常被认为比药物更有效。）" 可知，认知加工疗法成功是因为它完成时间短，增强大脑的连通性，所以它比其他的疗法要更加有效。故选C项。
10、答案：C
解析：推理判断题。根据文章最后一段 "Hwever, fcusing mainly n pst-natural disasters, regardless f pre-disaster health, CPT has been repeatedly prven t be a rather successful treatment apprach. Althugh there have nt been studies generalizing CPT fr children, it is an effective treatment fr adults. The clear effectiveness f CPT demnstrates the imprtance f patient-specific therapies that are unique t the experiences f individual patients.（然而，认知加工疗法主要侧重于自然灾害后，而不考虑灾前健康，已多次被证明是一种相当成功的治疗方法。虽然还没有研究将认知加工疗法推广到儿童，但它对成人是一种有效的治疗方法。认知加工疗法的明确有效性证明了患者特异性治疗的重要性，这是个体患者独特的经历。）" 可知，认知加工疗法多次被证明是一种相当成功的治疗方法，并且对于成年人来说已经是有效的方法；由此可以推出，下一步很有可能就是将其应用于儿童身上，研究它的有效性。故选C项。
11、答案：B
解析：主旨大意题。文章第一段主要讲了认知加工疗法的定义，它是一种长期的心理疗法；第二段讲了它为何如此有效，其原理是什么；第三段讲了认知加工疗法的缺点；第四段讲了它的应用范围。综合全文可知，文章主要介绍了一种长期心理疗法——认知加工疗法。故选B项。
12、答案：D
解析：主旨大意题。根据文章第一段 Despite grwing cncerns ver tiny bits f plastic filling the wrld's waterways, the lng-term envirnmental effects f that waste remain unclear. Nw an experiment n freshwater sediment (沉积物) cmmunities expsed t micrplastics fr ver a year helps clarify hw harmful this pllutin can be. 可知，尽管越来越多的人担心世界上的水道中充斥着微小的塑料垃圾，但这些垃圾对环境的长期影响仍不清楚。现在，一项淡水沉积物群落暴露在微塑料中超过一年的实验有助于弄清这种污染的危害。由此推知，这项实验的主要目的是研究塑料在水道中的有害影响，D项符合文意。A项意为“清理水道中的微塑料”，B项意为“减少人们对塑料污染的担忧”，C项意为“看蠕虫如何和谐地生活在一起”，均不符合文意。故正确答案为D。
13、答案：B
解析：推理判断题。根据文章第二段第一句和第二句 Researchers put trays (托盘) f sediment littered with different amunts f plystyrene (a very light sft plastic) particles (颗粒) — ranging frm 0 t 5 percent plastic — in the bttm f an utdr waterway where bugs, snails and ther little creatures clnized the mud. After 15 mnths, fewer rganisms were fund living in the trays with 5 percent plystyrene than in trays with less plastic, largely because fewer Naididae wrms lived in the mst plluted mud. 可知，研究人员将散落着不同数量的聚苯乙烯（一种非常轻的软塑料）颗粒（塑料含量从0到5%不等）的沉淀物放置在室外水路的底部那里有虫子、蜗牛和其他小生物在淤泥中繁衍。15个月后，发现生活在含5%聚苯乙烯的托盘里的微生物比生活在含较少塑料的托盘里的要少，这主要是因为生活在污染最严重的泥里的 Naididae 蠕虫更少。由此可知，第二段主要描述了实验过程，B项符合文意。A项意为“实验的理论”，C项意为“实验参与者”，D项意为“实验的意义”，均不符合文意。故正确答案为B。
14、答案：C
解析：细节理解题。根据文章第三段第一句 That reductin in Naididae wrms suggests that severe micrplastic pllutin can thrw freshwater ecsystems ut f balance. 可知，Naididae 蠕虫数量的减少表明，严重的微塑料污染会使淡水生态系统失去平衡。由此可知，Naididae 蠕虫的多少是淡水生态系统是否平衡的标志。故正确答案为C。
15、答案：B
解析：观点态度题。根据文章最后一段 Just because the researchers didn't bserve a significant effect n these freshwater cmmunities at lwer plastic cncentratins "desn 't meanthat there are n effects," says Ana LuIsa Patrfci Silva, an ectxiclgist at the University f Aveir in Prtugal nt invlved in the wrk. Simply keeping a cunt f the rganisms living in mud with a certain amunt f pllutin desn't rule ut the pssibility that micrplastics weaken the creatures' ability t functin nrmally, she says. 可知，葡萄牙阿威罗大学的生态毒理学家 Ana LuIsa Patrfci Silva 没有参与这项研究，她说，仅仅因为研究人员没有在较低的塑料浓度下观察到对这些淡水群落的显著影响，“并不意味着没有影响”。她说，简单地计算在一定程度的污染下生活在泥中的生物数量并不能排除塑料微粒削弱生物正常活动能力的可能性。由此推知，Ana 对此实验的研究结果并不确信，持怀疑态度。B项，skeptical 意为“怀疑的”，符合文意。A项，favrable 意为“有利的”，C项，ambiguus 意为“模棱两可的”，D项，uncaring 意为“漠不关心的”，均不符合文意。故正确答案为B。
