On a cld mrning in May, I received a fascinating email frm a high schl friend, inviting me t a 10-day all-female surfing adventure in Prtugal. The ffer was irresistible, and I instantly knew my answer was yes. The trip seemed simple enugh. Ten wmen, ranging frm 30 t 45 years ld, all strangers, wuld gather n the Prtuguese cast t embrace the challenge f surfing the Atlantic waves. As a fan f travel, I quickly sught permissin frm my bss fr this nce-in-a-lifetime jurney.
Thrugh my 33 years, I’ve bserved a cmmn adult tendency: we ften limit urselves t imprving skills we already have. There’s a certain pride in imprving ur expert knwledge, becming increasingly knwledgeable in ur chsen fields, yet unintentinally, this fcus ften leaves ther skills undevelped and leads t ignring ther areas f ptential grwth.
Tw days later, I arrived in Ericeira, a charming surf twn, where I met my surfing grup. Despite ur different persnalities and backgrunds, we were all united in a passinate desire t challenge urselves, learn, tackle and grw.
The shres at Ericeira, where the beginners learn t surf, are shallw and cvered with slippery rcks. They make fr sfter waves but are difficult t navigate (驾驭). Guided by ur amazing caches, tgether, we faced the waves. Smetimes, it pured with rain, and the waves crashed arund us, but we were still ut there. And with every slip and fall, wrds f encuragement filled the air. Hnestly, I prbably spent mst f my days frzen t the bne, but that didn’t matter because a new level f genuine jy and persnal achievement had been unlcked. Learning a new skill taught me the humbleness that can cme frm ding badly at smething new, and the pride that develps when yu finally manage t grasp smething yu’ve been wrking n.
While surfing might nt be my calling, trying it ut inspired me t take mre risks in life, t step utside f my cmfrt zne and t never stp believing in myself. Yu never knw what yu’re capable f if yu dn’t g ut there and try.

Music can really affect yur well-being, learning, quality f life, and even happiness. The fact that music can make a difficult task mre tlerable may be why students ften chse t listen t it while ding their hmewrk. But is listening t music the smart chice fr students wh want t imprve their learning? A new study suggests that fr sme students, listening t music is a wise strategy, but fr thers, it isn’t. The effect f music n cgnitive (认知的) functin appears t depend partly n yur persnality — specifically, n yur need fr external stimulatin (刺激).
Researchers nt nly assessed listeners’ persnality but als changed the difficulty f the task and the cmplexity f the music. Participants first cmpleted a persnality test used t determine the need fr external stimulatin. Then, they engaged in an easy cgnitive task (searching fr the letter A in lists f wrds) and a mre challenging ne (remembering wrd pairs) in rder. Participants finished bth tasks under ne f tw sund cnditins: (1) n music, (2) with music.
The data suggests that fr thse with a high need f external stimulatin, n the simple task f finding A’s, the scres fr the music cnditin were significantly wrse than thse fr the silent cnditin. On the cmplex task f learning wrd pairs, their perfrmance was wrse whenever music was played. Fr thse with a lw need f external stimulatin, hwever, n the simple task, such participants’ scres fr the music cnditin were much better than thse fr the silent cnditin. On the cmplex task f learning wrd pairs, the participants shwed a small but reliable benefit when listening t music.
Accrding t the study, there are individual differences in the impact f music n cgnitive functin. Students wh are easily bred and wh seek ut stimulatin shuld be cautius f adding music t the mix. On the ther hand, students with a lw need fr stimulatin may benefit significantly frm the presence f music.
With the right persnality the right music and the right task, the presence f music may significantly imprve cgnitive functining. Given the benefits f music, subscriptin t Sptify will be rewarding!
8. What is the functin f the first paragraph?
A. T explain what is stimulatin.B. T lead int the tpic.
C. T make a predictin.D. T ffer sme advice.
9. What can we knw frm the prcess f the study?
A. It is dne under ne and nly sund cnditin.
B. Participants nly need t cmplete a persnality test.
C. The difficulty f the tw tasks decreased in the experiment.
D. Participants were gruped by their needs fr external stimulatin.
10. What can we infer frm the result f the research?
A. The cmplexity f tasks might reduce the benefit f music.
B. Students shuld listen t music when perfrming cmplex tasks.
C. Students with less external stimulatin perfrm badly with music.
D. The presence f music benefits students wh seek fr external stimulatin.
11. What might the underlined wrd “Sptify” be?
A. A dictinary.
B. A psychlgy jurnal.
C. A music platfrm.
D. A persnality test.
【答案】8. B 9. D 10. A 11. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了一项新的研究发现，音乐对认知功能的影响与个人的外部刺激需求有关，对于不同需求的人，音乐的影响也不同。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Music can really affect yur well-being, learning, quality f life, and even happiness. The fact that music can make a difficult task mre tlerable may be why students ften chse t listen t it while ding their hmewrk. But is listening t music the smart chice fr students wh want t imprve their learning? A new study suggests that fr sme students, listening t music is a wise strategy, but fr thers, it isn’t.”（音乐确实可以影响你的健康，学习，生活质量，甚至幸福感。音乐可以使困难的任务变得更容易忍受，这可能是学生们在做作业时常常选择听音乐的原因。但是，对于想要提高学习效果的学生来说，听音乐是明智的选择吗？一项新的研究表明，对于一些学生来说，听音乐是明智的策略，但对于其他人来说，可能并非如此。）可推知，第一段的功能是引入主题，故选B。
9题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Participants first cmpleted a persnality test used t determine the need fr external stimulatin. Then, they engaged in an easy cgnitive task (searching fr the letter A in lists f wrds) and a mre challenging ne (remembering wrd pairs) in rder. Participants finished bth tasks under ne f tw sund cnditins: (1) n music, (2) with music.”（参与者首先完成了一个用于确定外部刺激需求的性格测试。然后，他们按顺序进行了一个简单的认知任务（在单词列表中寻找字母A）和一个更具挑战性的任务（记住词对）。参与者在两种声音条件之一下完成了这两项任务：（1）无音乐，（2）有音乐。）可推知，参与者是根据他们对外部刺激的需求进行分组的，故选D。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“On the cmplex task f learning wrd pairs, their perfrmance was wrse whenever music was played. Fr thse with a lw need f external stimulatin, hwever, n the simple task, such participants’ scres fr the music cnditin were much better than thse fr the silent cnditin. On the cmplex task f learning wrd pairs, the participants shwed a small but reliable benefit when listening t music.”（在学习单词对的复杂任务中，每当播放音乐时，他们的表现就会变差。然而，对于那些不需要外界刺激的人来说，在简单的任务中，这些参与者在音乐条件下的得分要比在沉默条件下的得分高得多。在学习单词对的复杂任务中，参与者在听音乐时表现出了微小但可靠的好处。）可知，任务的复杂性可能会降低音乐的好处。故选A。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“With the right persnality, the right music and the right task, the presence f music may significantly imprve cgnitive functining. Given the benefits f music, subscriptin t Sptify will be rewarding”（有了合适的性格、合适的音乐和合适的任务，音乐的存在可能会显著改善认知功能。考虑到音乐的好处，订阅Sptify将是有回报的）可知，Sptify可能是音乐平台。故选C。

“A beautiful field f flwers can be a rather nisy place. It’s just that we can’t hear the sunds.” Scientists at Tel Aviv University have cnducted a six-year experiment, prving that plants make nise in certain stressful situatins.
Plants prduce a high frequency (频率) clicking sund, and when shrt f water, r damaged, the clicks becme far mre regular. They als made different sunds, depending n whether they were thirsty r injured. “Each plant and each type f stress is related t a specific sund,” said Prfessr Lilach Hadany, wh led the research study.
Fcusing particularly n tmates, wheat and crn, the plants were placed in a sundprf(隔音的)rm and recrded by micrphnes. Sme plants were starved f water, thers cut, and a cntrl grup was left undamaged. The researchers used an algrithm (算法) t separate the nises, suecessfully telling the difference between the sunds depending n whether they were dry r cut. The algrithm did this in a greenhuse setting which included far mre surrunding sunds, but it was still able t recgnize the particular cries fr help f the plants.
On average, the human ear can hear sunds up t arund 20kHz, while the sunds prduced by plants are in the 40-80kHz regin, far beynd ur hearing. “The sunds made by plants can’t be heard by humans but can prbably be heard by varius animals, such as bats, mice and insects,” Hadany tells us. Thugh this has yet t be prven, it’s pssible that these creatures use this infrmatin t chse which plants t eat.
A study led by Reda Hassanien f China Agriculural University in Beijing years ag, als prved that plants reacted t sund waves, with sme plants greatly increasing their yield. While evidence shws that plants can react t sunds, there’s n evidence tday that they can actually hear them.
12. What can we knw frm the six-year experiment?
A. Plants f different types make the sund f the same frequeney.
B. Plants prduce mre regular sund in certain stressful situatins.
C. Plants make sunds with a much lwer frequency when stressed.
D. Plants make the sund f the same frequeney whatever the situatin.
13. What is the algrithm used fr in the research?
A. T recrd the sunds.B. T cntrl the sunds.
C. T prduce the sunds.D. T identify the sunds.
14. What has been prven by scientists accrding t the passage?
A. Plants can hear each ther’s cry fr help.
B. Animals can hear the sunds made by plants.
C. Plants can make sunds and respnd t sund waves.
D. Animals decide what t eat based n the sunds plants make.
15. Which f the fllwing is the best title f the text?
A. Sunds That We Can’t Hear
B. Beautiful Sngs frm Plants
C. Plants React t Different Types f Stress
D. Plants Talk, Especially When Stressed
【答案】12. B 13. D 14. C 15. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一项新的研究发现，该研究表明植物在某些紧张的情况下会发出声音。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段““A beautiful field f flwers can be a rather nisy place. It’s just that we can’t hear the sunds.” Scientists at Tel Aviv University have cnducted a six-year experiment, prving that plants make nise in certain stressful situatins.(“一片美丽的花田可能是一个相当嘈杂的地方。只是我们听不到声音。”特拉维夫大学的科学家们进行了一项为期六年的实验，证明植物在某些紧张的情况下会发出声音。)”以及第二段“Plants prduce a high frequency (频率) clicking sund, and when shrt f water, r damaged, the clicks becme far mre regular. They als made different sunds, depending n whether they were thirsty r injured. “Each plant and each type f stress is related t a specific sund,” said Prfessr Lilach Hadany, wh led the research study.(植物会发出高频率的咔哒声，当缺水或受损时，咔哒声会变得更有规律。它们也会发出不同的声音，这取决于它们是口渴还是受伤。“每种植物和每种类型的压力都与一种特定的声音有关，”领导这项研究的利拉克·哈达尼教授说。)”可知，这项为期六年的实验表明植物在有压力的情况下会发出有规律的声音。故选B。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段“The researchers used an algrithm (算法) t separate the nises, successfully telling the difference between the sunds depending n whether they were dry r cut. The algrithm did this in a greenhuse setting which included far mre surrunding sunds, but it was still able t recgnize the particular cries fr help f the plants.(研究人员使用了一种算法来分离噪音，成功地根据它们缺水还是受到切割来区分声音。该算法在温室环境中进行了这项工作，温室环境中有更多的周围声音，但它仍然能够识别出植物的特殊呼救声。)”可知，该算法用来分离噪音，辨别声音。故选D。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“A study led by Reda Hassanien f China Agriculural University in Beijing years ag, als prved that plants reacted t sund waves, with sme plants greatly increasing their yield. While evidence shws that plants can react t sunds, there’s n evidence tday that they can actually hear them.(几年前，中国农业大学的Reda Hassanien领导的一项研究也证明了植物对声波的反应，一些植物的产量大大提高。虽然有证据表明植物可以对声音做出反应，但现在还没有证据表明它们真的能听到声音。)”可知，植物可以发出声音并对声波做出反应。故选C。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第一段““A beautiful field f flwers can be a rather nisy place. It’s just that we can’t hear the sunds.” Scientists at Tel Aviv University have cnducted a six-year experiment, prving that plants make nise in certain stressful situatins.(“一片美丽的花田可能是一个相当嘈杂的地方。只是我们听不到声音。”特拉维夫大学的科学家们进行了一项为期六年的实验，证明植物在某些紧张的情况下会发出声音。)”以及全文内容可知，文章主要介绍了一项新的研究发现，该研究表明植物在某些紧张的情况下会发出声音。所以“Plants Talk, Especially When Stressed(植物会说话，尤其是在有压力的时候)”作为文章标题最为合适。故选D。

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了在感觉绝望的时候可以做些什么来让生活变得更好。
【16题详解】
上文“Cnsider that yur brain might be lying t yu. Yur brain might tell yu that things are awful and hrrible. It may tell yu that there’s n chance that things are ging t get better.(考虑一下你的大脑可能在对你撒谎。你的大脑可能会告诉你事情很糟糕。它可能会告诉你，情况不会好转)”指出大脑会告诉你事情很糟糕。后文“Yur thughts may be inaccurate r ttally wrng. There is mre hpe than yu imagine.(你的想法可能是不准确的或完全错误的。希望比你想象的要多)”提到你的想法可能是不准确的或完全错误的；由此可知，你的想法并不一定就是真实的。故B选项“但是你这么想并不意味着那就是真的”符合语境，故选B。
【17题详解】
根据上文“Argue the ppsite. When yu feel hpeless, yu’ll likely think abut why things aren’t getting better. Take a few minutes t argue the ppsite. What’s the evidence that things might wrk ut better than yu expect?(相反的观点。当你感到绝望时，你可能会想为什么事情没有好转。花几分钟时间来反驳。有什么证据表明事情可能比你预期的要好？)”可知，上文建议反驳，找出事情比预期得要好的证据；本句与上文并列，都是针对如何反驳进行设问。故C选项“或者事情如何才能变得更好？”符合语境，故选C。
