When training fr my first marathn, I treated myself t an expensive fitness watch that tracked my time, pace and splits.
At the end f my final training run, I threw myself dwn n the flr the mment I gt hme, nly t see my watch had failed me.

I wuld cmpare my pace with ther peple’s r criticize myself fr nt ding it 30 secnds faster. I never really recgnized this as a prblem.

In the past year, “being better” has taken n a different meaning. My mental health drpped, and things like brushing my teeth became unimaginably difficult.

I nw ntice hw my legs feel and hw my mind feels afterwards — clear and fcused. I ntice the smell f the wild plants and the sunshine n my face.

Next time yu’re with a lved ne, cnsider trying an awkward experiment: Take a mment f silence and gaze int each thers eyes. By the time yu reach abut fur secnds, things will prbably start t feel uncmfrtable. Yet the precise reasn why is tricky t pin dwn with a scientific lens.
“There’s smething in that lking that has meaning, sustainable meaning,” says Jy Hirsch, a neurscientist at Yale Schl f Medicine, “The mechanism fr cnnectin has never really been understd.”
Several years ag, her team figured ut hw t adapt an existing neurimaging (神经成像) tl called functinal near-infrared spectrscpy(fNIRS), fr the purpse f analyzing the brains f tw peple during natural interactins. With these brain imaging tls, Hirsch is expanding the scial neurscience field int what she refers t as “the neurscience f tw.”
In the research, her teams have revealed a pwerful regin f the brain that is assciated with eye cntact. Specifically, fNIRS experiments have demnstrated that in-persn eye cntact seems t be cnnected t a brain part assciated with language prductin and receptin, as well as the primary sensry crtex (额叶), which is fundamental t prcessing sensatins like physical tuch, pain and temperature. In simple terms: “The eyes have privileged access t large parts f the brain,” says Hirsch.
Hirsch’s experiments have als revealed the unique tendency fr tw brains t synchrnize (同步) during eye cntact and cmmunicatin. A research f Dartmuth Cllege has similarly highlighted hw expansin f pupils (瞳孔) can synchrnize during a cnversatin t indicate “shared attentin” between tw peple, accrding t a 2021 study. Interestingly, thse researchers fund that precise mments f shared eye cntact actually decrease the pupil synchrny between tw peple, perhaps in a beneficial way.
Ultimately, each f these studies sparks just as many new questins as it answers - a reality that is perfectly fine with Hirsch.“Yes indeed, the ld philsphers were right.” she says. “Faces and brains wrk tgether like lcks and keys.”
8. What d we knw abut the awkward experiment frm the first tw paragraphs?
A. It will be a lng time befre yu feel cmfrtable.B. Yu can sense smething frm each ther’s eyes.
C. Scientists have explained the reasn fr it clearly.D. There is n link between eye cntact and feelings.
9. What is Paragraph 4 mainly abut?
A Why the brain respnds t eye cntact easily.B. Hw the language is prduced in the brain.
C. What the functin f primary sensry crtex is.D. Hw the regins f the brain are shaped.
10. What des the synchrnizatin f pupils mean during a cnversatin?
A. The interactin is fun.B. The cnversatin is interrupted.
C. The tw feel cnnected.D. A new cnversatins t start.
11. Why des Jy Hirsch qute the philsphers’ wrds at the end?
A. T further prve her findings are quite true.B. T emphasize the imprtance f their research.
C. T shw the cmplexity f the phenmenn.D. T stimulate peple’s interest in further study.

I lve asking “stupid” questins, especially the nes with n right answers. I remember nce asking kids what time it was, at hme, in Singapre, and finally n the Mn. A shy girl suggested it was “every time” fllwed by an energetic Einstein wh shuted it was “n time”. Bth kids shared that week’s Nble Prize, because n humans live in that distant wrld and time is a human cnstruct.
In fact, we are all gd at asking questins by nature, but sadly as we age, we get accustmed t the wrld arund us and take things fr granted. We became mre results-riented (注重结果的) and cncentrate ur effrts n success. If smething is wrking, dn’t fix it; just relax and g with the flw. Cnventinal wisdm may wrk well, but that des nt mean it is always right. Thrughut histry, it has been thse wh have questined cnventinal wisdm and challenged ur cmmn-sense ntins f the wrld that have stimulated the majr advancements f human civilizatin.
In 500 BC, the ancient Greeks wndered whether the Earth was rund because sailrs n the sea had nticed that the farther suth they went, the mre different stars they saw in the sky. Why was the sky changing? Nearly 2,000 years later, the Italian astrnmer Galile Galilei became interested in this questin and ended up demnstrating the “crazy” cncept f helicentrism (日心说), in which the Sun lies at the center f the universe while the Earth revlves (旋转) arund it at 30 kilmeters per secnd. But if the Earth is spinning arund s quickly, why aren’t we being thrwn ff f the surface f the planet? The answer t this questin wuld nt end up being revealed t us fr anther century.
Peple like rutine, but past perfrmance is n guarantee f future results. While thse wh challenge cnventinal wisdm tend t be subjected t abuse, the prgress f humankind wuld have therwise been impssible withut these persistent peple and their “stupid” questins.
12. What cmmnly happens t us when we grw lder accrding t the authr?
A. We lay t much emphasis n prcess.
B. We still refuse t relax and g with the flw.
C. We start t challenge cmmn-sense ntins f the wrld.
D. We gradually lse the ability t questin cnventinal wisdm.
13. Wh might have slved the questin “why aren’t we being thrwn ff f the surface f the planet?”
A. An ancient Greek scientist living in 500 BC.B. Galile Galilei living between 1564 and 1642.
C. Isaac Newtn living between 1643 and 1727.D. Albert Einstein living between 1879 and 1955.
14. Hw des the authr develp his writing n the whle?
A. By cmparisn and cntrast.B. By using supprting examples.
C. By using time and space rder.D. By generalizatin and definitin.
15 What is the best title f this article?
A. Asking Stupid Questins: the Smartest Thing Yu Can D
B. Explring the Universe: the Ultimate Gal fr Humankind
C. Cnventinal Wisdm: What It Means and When t Use It
D. Human Civilizatin: the Relatinship Between Man and Nature

Mr. Thmpsn dragged his feet slwly dwn the hallway, burdened with the weight f a hundred ungraded papers n his shulders. It was Teacher’s Day, and clrful psters were pasted arund. Despite scattered (零散的) “Happy Teacher’s Day” greetings frm sme students alng the way, Mr. Thmpsn felt a familiar emptiness settle in his heart. Teacher’s Day usually meant an apple and a chrus f “thank yus” frm his wn class. Tday, he expected nthing different.
The mrning had been quite tugh, filled with a hst f math prblems and frgtten hmewrk excuses. One trublemaker in the class had again “accidentally” set his bilgy prject n fire(thankfully cntained).

“What in the wrld is ging n here?”
His vice harse (嘶哑的) frm shuting, Mr. Thmpsn rushed frward, envisining images f black eyes and bldy nses. He struggled t make his way thrugh the desks, the classrm suddenly deathly quiet.
“Break it up! Nw!” he shuted, trying t cntrl the situatin.

Next time yu’re with a lved ne, cnsider trying an awkward experiment: Take a mment f silence and gaze int each thers eyes. By the time yu reach abut fur secnds, things will prbably start t feel uncmfrtable. Yet the precise reasn why is tricky t pin dwn with a scientific lens.
“There’s smething in that lking that has meaning, sustainable meaning,” says Jy Hirsch, a neurscientist at Yale Schl f Medicine, “The mechanism fr cnnectin has never really been understd.”
Several years ag, her team figured ut hw t adapt an existing neurimaging (神经成像) tl called functinal near-infrared spectrscpy(fNIRS), fr the purpse f analyzing the brains f tw peple during natural interactins. With these brain imaging tls, Hirsch is expanding the scial neurscience field int what she refers t as “the neurscience f tw.”
In the research, her teams have revealed a pwerful regin f the brain that is assciated with eye cntact. Specifically, fNIRS experiments have demnstrated that in-persn eye cntact seems t be cnnected t a brain part assciated with language prductin and receptin, as well as the primary sensry crtex (额叶), which is fundamental t prcessing sensatins like physical tuch, pain and temperature. In simple terms: “The eyes have privileged access t large parts f the brain,” says Hirsch.
Hirsch’s experiments have als revealed the unique tendency fr tw brains t synchrnize (同步) during eye cntact and cmmunicatin. A research f Dartmuth Cllege has similarly highlighted hw expansin f pupils (瞳孔) can synchrnize during a cnversatin t indicate “shared attentin” between tw peple, accrding t a 2021 study. Interestingly, thse researchers fund that precise mments f shared eye cntact actually decrease the pupil synchrny between tw peple, perhaps in a beneficial way.
Ultimately, each f these studies sparks just as many new questins as it answers - a reality that is perfectly fine with Hirsch.“Yes indeed, the ld philsphers were right.” she says. “Faces and brains wrk tgether like lcks and keys.”
8. What d we knw abut the awkward experiment frm the first tw paragraphs?
A. It will be a lng time befre yu feel cmfrtable.B. Yu can sense smething frm each ther’s eyes.

10. What des the synchrnizatin f pupils mean during a cnversatin?
A. The interactin is fun.B. The cnversatin is interrupted.
C. The tw feel cnnected.D. A new cnversatins t start.
11. Why des Jy Hirsch qute the philsphers’ wrds at the end?

【答案】8. B 9. A 10. C 11. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文讨论了眼神交流在人际交往中的重要作用以及科学家们对此的研究。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Take a mment f silence and gaze int each thers eyes. By the time yu reach abut fur secnds, things will prbably start t feel uncmfrtable.(沉默一会儿，凝视对方的眼睛。当你达到大约4秒的时候，事情可能会开始感到不舒服。)”和文章第二段““There’s smething in that lking that has meaning, sustainable meaning,” says Jy Hirsch, a neurscientist at Yale Schl f Medicine(耶鲁大学医学院(Yale Schl f Medicine)的神经科学家乔伊·赫希(Jy Hirsch)说：“这种眼神中有某种东西是有意义的，是可持续的。”)”可知，从前两段这个实验中我们了解到可以从对方的眼睛里感觉到一些东西。故选B。
【9题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第四段“In the research, her teams have revealed a pwerful regin f the brain that is assciated with eye cntact. Specifically, fNIRS experiments have demnstrated that in-persn eye cntact seems t be cnnected t a brain part assciated with language prductin and receptin, as well as the primary sensry crtex(额叶), which is fundamental t prcessing sensatins like physical tuch, pain and temperature. In simple terms: “The eyes have privileged access t large parts f the brain,” says Hirsch.( 在这项研究中，她团队揭示了大脑中与目光接触有关的一个强大区域。具体来说，近红外光谱实验已经证明，面对面的目光接触似乎与大脑中与语言产生和接收相关的部分有关，也与初级感觉皮层有关，初级感觉皮层是处理身体触摸、疼痛和温度等感觉的基础。简单地说:“眼睛有特权进入大脑的大部分，”赫希说。)”可知，第四段主要解释了为什么大脑容易对眼神交流做出反应。故选A。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第五段“Hirsch’s experiments have als revealed the unique tendency fr tw brains t synchrnize (同步) during eye cntact and cmmunicatin. A research f Dartmuth Cllege has similarly highlighted hw expansin f pupils (瞳孔) can synchrnize during a cnversatin t indicate “shared attentin” between tw peple, accrding t a 2021 study.(赫希的实验还揭示了两个大脑在目光接触和交流时同步的独特趋势。根据2021年的一项研究，达特茅斯学院(Dartmuth Cllege)的一项研究同样强调了瞳孔的扩张如何在谈话中同步，以表明两个人之间的“共同关注”。)”可知，达特茅斯学院的一项研究也强调了瞳孔在对话中如何同步以表明两人之间的“共同关注”。因此，瞳孔的同步意味着两个人感到有联系。故选C。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段““Yes indeed, the ld philsphers were right.” she says. “Faces and brains wrk tgether like lcks and keys.”(“是的，老哲学家是对的。她说。“脸和大脑就像锁和钥匙一样相互作用。”)”可知，Hirsch提到“老哲学家们是对的”是为了进一步证明她的发现是正确的。故选A。
D
I lve asking “stupid” questins, especially the nes with n right answers. I remember nce asking kids what time it was, at hme, in Singapre, and finally n the Mn. A shy girl suggested it was “every time” fllwed by an energetic Einstein wh shuted it was “n time”. Bth kids shared that week’s Nble Prize, because n humans live in that distant wrld and time is a human cnstruct.
In fact, we are all gd at asking questins by nature, but sadly as we age, we get accustmed t the wrld arund us and take things fr granted. We became mre results-riented (注重结果的) and cncentrate ur effrts n success. If smething is wrking, dn’t fix it; just relax and g with the flw. Cnventinal wisdm may wrk well, but that des nt mean it is always right. Thrughut histry, it has been thse wh have questined cnventinal wisdm and challenged ur cmmn-sense ntins f the wrld that have stimulated the majr advancements f human civilizatin.
In 500 BC, the ancient Greeks wndered whether the Earth was rund because sailrs n the sea had nticed that the farther suth they went, the mre different stars they saw in the sky. Why was the sky changing? Nearly 2,000 years later, the Italian astrnmer Galile Galilei became interested in this questin and ended up demnstrating the “crazy” cncept f helicentrism (日心说), in which the Sun lies at the center f the universe while the Earth revlves (旋转) arund it at 30 kilmeters per secnd. But if the Earth is spinning arund s quickly, why aren’t we being thrwn ff f the surface f the planet? The answer t this questin wuld nt end up being revealed t us fr anther century.
Peple like rutine, but past perfrmance is n guarantee f future results. While thse wh challenge cnventinal wisdm tend t be subjected t abuse, the prgress f humankind wuld have therwise been impssible withut these persistent peple and their “stupid” questins.
12. What cmmnly happens t us when we grw lder accrding t the authr?
A. We lay t much emphasis n prcess.
B. We still refuse t relax and g with the flw.
C. We start t challenge cmmn-sense ntins f the wrld.
D. We gradually lse the ability t questin cnventinal wisdm.
13. Wh might have slved the questin “why aren’t we being thrwn ff f the surface f the planet?”
A. An ancient Greek scientist living in 500 BC.B. Galile Galilei living between 1564 and 1642.
C. Isaac Newtn living between 1643 and 1727.D. Albert Einstein living between 1879 and 1955.
14. Hw des the authr develp his writing n the whle?
A. By cmparisn and cntrast.B. By using supprting examples.
C. By using time and space rder.D. By generalizatin and definitin.
15. What is the best title f this article?
A Asking Stupid Questins: the Smartest Thing Yu Can D
B Explring the Universe: the Ultimate Gal fr Humankind
C. Cnventinal Wisdm: What It Means and When t Use It
D. Human Civilizatin: the Relatinship Between Man and Nature
【答案】12. D 13. C 14. B 15. A
【解析】

【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“In fact, we are all gd at asking questins by nature, but sadly as we age, we get accustmed t the wrld arund us and take things fr granted. (事实上，我们天生都善于提问，但可悲的是，随着年龄的增长，我们习惯了周围的世界，把一切都视为理所当然。)”可知，当我们变老时，我们逐渐失去了质疑传统智慧的能力。故选D。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“In 500 BC, the ancient Greeks wndered whether the Earth was rund because sailrs n the sea had nticed that the farther suth they went, the mre different stars they saw in the sky. Why was the sky changing? Nearly 2,000 years later, the Italian astrnmer Galile Galilei became interested in this questin and ended up demnstrating the “crazy” cncept f helicentrism (日心说), in which the Sun lies at the center f the universe while the Earth revlves (旋转) arund it at 30 kilmeters per secnd.

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文，介绍了中国福建省泉州市浔浦村特有的花头饰——赞花帽（Zanhua Wei）。赞花帽是一种由当地女性佩戴的花式头饰，具有丰富的文化意义和制作工艺。文章还提到了赞花帽被列入国家级非物质文化遗产名录，以及它在传统文化中的重要角色。
【36题详解】
考查过去分词。句意：赞花帽，被称为头上的花园，是泉州市浔浦村当地女性所佩戴的一种花式头饰。这里需要一个过去分词作定语，修饰名词flwer headwear。根据句子结构，我们知道wear与flwer headwear之间是被动关系，因此使用过去分词wrn。故填wrn。
【37题详解】
考查名词复数。句意：它的制作需要经过多个步骤，包括切割、铺设、镶嵌、着色等等。这里需要一个名词的复数形式，因为multiple后面跟复数名词。prcess是可数名词过程，因此填入复数形式prcesses。故填prcesses。
【38题详解】
考查副词。句意：制作发夹花的主要材料是金属线、宝石和彩色珍珠，它们被精细地结合起来形成各种花型。这里需要一个副词来修饰动词cmbined，表示精细地。因此填入副词delicately。故填delicately。
【39题详解】
考查代词。句意：关于赞花帽的起源，意见不一，一些人认为它起源于中亚女性佩戴花朵的习俗，并在宋元时期通过海上丝绸之路带回，当时泉州是中国东南沿海少数几个主要贸易港口之一。这里需要一个代词来指代前文提到的the rigin f Zanhua Wei。根据句子结构，我们知道需要一个中性的单数代词，因此填入it。
【40题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：关于赞花帽的起源，意见不一，一些人认为它起源于中亚女性佩戴花朵的习俗，并在宋元时期通过海上丝绸之路带回，当时泉州是中国东南沿海少数几个主要贸易港口之一。这里是个定语从句，先行词是宋朝和元朝，在从句中充当时间状语，因此填入when。
【41题详解】
考查形容词。句意：船只将香料和各种有价值的商品带到泉州进行贸易，尤其是无数的宝石和珍珠。这里需要一个形容词来修饰名词gds，表示有价值的。因此填入形容词valuable。
【42题详解】
考查一般过去时的被动语态。句意：2008年，这一习俗被列入国家非物质文化遗产名录。这里需要一个动词的被动语态，表示被包括。根据时间状语In 2008，这个句子是使用一般过去时的被动语态，因此填入was included。
【43题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：除了作为头饰使用，发夹花在传统文化中扮演着不可替代的角色。besides是介词，后面接ding；根据句意，它是被当做头饰使用，同时表示被动，应该使用being dne的结构，因此填入being used。
【44题详解】
考查冠词。句意：除了作为头饰使用，发夹花在传统文化中扮演着不可替代的角色。这里需要一个不定冠词来修饰单数可数名词rle，因为an用于以元音音素开头的单词前，undeniable是元音因素开头。因此填入an。
【45题详解】
考查名词。句意：赞花帽承载着渔民家庭的情感和记忆，反映了浔浦的勤奋和朴素，以及对更好生活的期望。这里需要一个名词作宾语。根据句子结构，我们知道expect是动词，因此填入expectatin。
