I was brn missing my left arm. In 1986, at 18 mnths, I was fitted with a prsthetic (义肢) device, a decisin made by my parents and dctrs s that I wuld develp “nrmally”.
I spent my entire childhd and adlescence trying t fit in. I did just abut anything t ease the pains f the stares and pinting fingers frm my classmates. By the time I was 8 I had n self-cnfidence, and the hand I was wearing was making it harder fr me t fit in. S I decided I was better ff withut ne. I didn’t need anyne t fix me.
T prve that I wasn’t limited by my disability, I develped a lve fr all sprts, in particular swimming. I was selected t my first Australian wmen’s swimming team at age 13 and successfully represented my cuntry fr eight years. I realized I’d made a name fr myself because f my disability.
I taught myself hw t be cmfrtable in a sciety filled with insecurities. S when I was first cntacted in 2021 by Cvvi, a cmpany trying t create the wrld’s mst advanced binic (仿生的) hand, I was a bit surprised. They asked me t trial the hand and, if pssible, t becme a patient advcate. Initially, I said n. Then, curisity gt the better f me.
While I was busy advcating fr disability rights, a new generatin f leaders, like Amy Purdy and Nick Vujicic, used the pwer f technlgy and scial media t display wheelchairs r artificial limbs withut explanatin. Peple feared disability less. Sciety was beginning t see a persn first, and their disability secnd.
Viewing disability thrugh a scial lens als meant acknwledging that a persn is mre disabled by their envirnment and the discriminatin f thers than by their actual disability. As thse cnversatins shifted, I realized that there was an pprtunity t use technlgy t steer the narrative fr future generatins. In July 2022, I decided t trial the hand.
The rle f patient advcate is an enrmus privilege. Thrugh sharing my jurney I’m able t reach thusands f ther peple wh wuld benefit frm its extrardinary capabilities. That’s why I wear a binic hand—nt because I’m brken, but because I have an pprtunity t enhance the human capabilities that already exist.
24. The authr develped a lve fr all sprts because ________.
A. she was lnging fr fameB. sprts gave her self-cnfidence
C. she wanted t defeat her disabilityD. her prsthetic device empwered her

Demanding days seem designed t test ur self-cntrl. We all need t rely n willpwer t avid shrt-term temptatins and verride unwanted thughts r impulses (冲动). The prevailing psychlgical thery prpsed that willpwer resembled a kind f battery. With each exercise f self-cntrl, yu exhausted this resurce. Withut a chance t recharge, that resurce ran lw, making it harder t maintain self-cntrl. This prcess was knwn as “eg depletin”.
In 2010, hwever, psychlgist Vernika Jb published a study that questined the fundatins f “eg depletin” thery, with sme interesting evidence that eg depletin depended n peple’s underlying beliefs. In the study, Jb divided participants int tw categries: thse with a “limited” view f willpwer and thse with a “nn-limited” view f willpwer, based n a prir questinnaire. She then gave the participants sme standard labratry tests examining mental fcus, which was cnsidered t depend n the reserves f willpwer. The study fund that peple with a limited mindset tended t perfrm exactly as eg depletin thery wuld predict but the nn-limited individuals did nt, which indicated that peple’s beliefs abut willpwer culd be self-fulfilling prphecies (预言). Thse wh believed willpwer was easily depleted saw their self-cntrl decrease, while thse wh believed in “mental stamina (耐力)” experienced n eg depletin.
Subsequent debates abut the reliability f the labratry tests f eg depletin emerged, but Jb’s wrk demnstrated that mindset significantly impacted real-life utcmes. Her fllw-up study revealed that after cmpleting demanding tasks, mst participants recvered t sme degree vernight, but thse with nn-limited mindsets actually experienced an increase in their prductivity the fllwing day, as if energized by the extra pressure.
If yu already have a nn-limited mindset abut willpwer, these findings might be a cause fr self-satisfactin. Fr thse with limited mindsets, hpe is nt lst. Learning abut this science can help shift beliefs. Sharing this knwledge with thers can further cnslidate this shift. Mrever, recllecting times f engaging in taxing yet enjyable tasks naturally shifts peple’s beliefs tward nn-limited mindsets, as they see prf f their wn men tal stamina. T prvide yurself with further evidence, yu can cnduct small self-cntrl tests. As yu realize yur willpwer’s grwth, yu’ll find resisting temptatins and distractins easier.
While immediate miracles aren’t guaranteed, perseverance will lead t a changed mindset and increased self-cntrl, prpelling actins tward persnal gals.
28. “Eg depletin” thery shws that willpwer ________.
A. helps cntrl ur impulsesB. reduces after exercising self-cntrl
C. is a test f yur characterD. is like a chargeable battery
29. What can we learn frm Jb’s tw studies?
A. Extra pressure bsts mental fcus.
B. Demanding tasks reduce mental fcus.
C. Reserves f willpwer depend n mental fcus.
DThe change f mental fcus relies n ne’s mindset.
30. Which f the fllwing can build nn-limited mindsets?
A. Picturing yur ideal university.
B. Ding hmewrk in frnt f a TV.
C. Sharing science knwledge with friends.
D. Recalling mastering a challenging pian piece.

Climate experts are having a debate: they are asking whether the UK shuld fcus mre n adapting t climate change r trying t prevent it.
David Frst hlds that preventing climate change is n lnger an ptin, given the extent t which the Earth nw appears certain t heat up. Despite the many plicies which attempt t stp climate change, it nw seems unavidable that the wrld will pass the 1.5℃ r 2℃ increases in average glbal temperature that are likely t induce large changes in the climate.
David Frst is right in that ur ecnmies are grwing s much slwer than we had anticipated. Our emissins can drp if we reduce emissins per unit f GDP we create—but they can als drp if the GDP is lwer. Lwer grwth means it is mre feasible (可行的) fr us t achieve targets such as Net Zer, but it als makes it less envirnmentally urgent t achieve thse targets s sn, because we are and have been emitting a lt less carbn than we had anticipated.
The UK authrity finds the debate abut adaptatin difficult. Partly, it is because sme activists claim that adaptatin is nt feasible. They say that climate change will end human civilizatin, ptentially leading t the entire extinctin f the human race.
Hwever, the mainstream view f many scientists and ecnmists, wh wrk n climate change, is that glbal warming culd lead t large changes in ur envirnment. Significant parts f the wrld currently heavily ppulated culd becme effectively uninhabitable while ther parts currently unsuitable fr high-density human habitatin wuld becme mre habitable. Meanwhile, at higher temperatures bth climate and weather are likely t becme mre vlatile—including increased frequency f strms, flding and ther weather events.
These wuld be significant changes, but it wuld be perfectly feasible fr humans t adapt t them. The issue is nt whether adapting wuld be technically feasible, but whether it wuld be desirable either in ethical r practical terms. Are we willing t accept a materially warmer wrld, with humans living in different parts f it? Are we willing t accept the pssible extinctins f certain species and the greater flurishing f thse currently less successful and f new species yet t evlve? Are we willing t accept the cnsequences f a large shift in the patterns f human habitatin acrss the wrld?
It is by n means clear n what basis we ught t ethnically privilege the plants and animals that flurish under tday’s climate ver thse that wuld flurish under a warmer, mre vlatile climate. Hwever, adaptatin will be feasible and is a necessity given the extent t which warming is nw unavidable. Slwer GDP grwth and thus slwer climate change ught t make greater effrts at adaptatin mre attractive.
31. Accrding t the passage, wh hesitate(s) t adapt t the climate change?
A. The gvernment.B. Climate experts.
C. David Frst.D. The activists.
32. The underlined wrd “vlatile” in Paragraph 5 prbably means ________.
A. changeableB. predictableC. bearableD. nticeable
33. The questins in Paragraph 6 are mainly aimed at __________.
A. expressing dubts abut peple’s adaptability
B. presenting examples f future climate patterns
C. highlighting the cnsequences f human activities
D. helping peple decide n their penness t adaptatin
34. Which f the fllwing might the authr agree with?
A. Slwing climate change deserves great effrts.
B. Glbal warming is preventable t sme extent.
C. Adaptatin t climate change is beynd questin.
D. Prtectin f the current species shuld be priritized.

Which is healthier: a bag f crisps r a vegetable salad? That is easy. Nw which is healthier: a pizza made frm scratch r ne made frm the same basic ingredients, with the same number f calries, pulled ut f a bx in the freezer? Many peple wuld instinctively(本能地) say the frmer, perhaps shwing a vague cncern with prcessed fd. Such fd can ften be delicius. And there is much t cheer abut calries being cheap and abundant. ____35____
What’s the distinctin between “ultra-prcessed fd(upf)” and “prcessed fd”? Almst everything peple cnsume is prcessed in sme frm. Rice is harvested; animals are butchered. Upf is usually described as “frmulatins f ingredients, made by a series f industrial prcesses, many requiring advanced equipment and technlgy”. ____36____ The ne in the freezer, with its extra, mdified ingredients, is upf.
Upf harms peple in ways bth knwn and unknwn. It seems t affect the trillins f bacteria that cntribute t health in a range f ways. Calrie-rich but usually nutrient-pr, upf cntributes t besity(肥胖症).
Upf displaces healthier alternatives, particularly fr pr peple. ____37____ Extra weight was nce a sign f wealth, but amng British and American wmen tday, besity rates are higher at lwer-incme levels.
____38____ Additives that may be safe in small quantities may be harmful in cmbinatin with ther chemicals r when cnsumed regularly. If we are what we eat cnsidering the impact f upf is essential.
____39____ Peple wh live in s-called “fd swamps”, where upf is everywhere but real fd is harder t reach, culd spend large amunts f time and mney seeking ut fresh fd, but that is nt hw mst peple live. There is nthing wrng with the dd fast-fd trip, but anyne wh can affrd t eat less upf prbably shuld.
A. Envirnment matters, t.

阅读下面短文,根据题目要求用英文回答问题。请在答题纸指定区域作答。
If yu feel like yu may be a peple-pleaser, yu’re nt alne. In tday’s highly-cnnected wrld, we have a grwing bsessin (痴迷) with being liked and needing t please thers. Peple seek t please thers fr varius reasns, including aviding cnflicts, securing feelings f being needed, and reducing fears f abandnment. And they are frced t use agreeableness as self-defense.
Peple-pleasing behavir can lead t mental and physical health prblems such as fear f rejectin, frustratin, anger, addictins, headaches, stmach prblems, and high bld pressure. It can als result in weak bundaries, prblems with decisin-making and dependency. Therefre, it’s imprtant t recgnize and vercme yur wn peple-pleasing behavirs. Here are sme simple exercises that yu can start wrking n tday.
Learn t lve yur wn cmpany. Trust that peple will nt abandn yu, even if yu dn’t drp everything fr them. Believing yu are lvable fr wh yu are, nt what yu d, means knwing that peple will still be there fr yu even if yu d nt always search fr ways t please them. Practice this by ging t a mvie r restaurant alne.
Value the plans made with yurself. They are as imprtant as plans yu make with ther peple. Otherwise, yu are sending a message t yur brain that a plan yu make with yurself des nt hld as much value. Dn’t break lng-r shrt-term plans yu make with yurself, whether it’s ging t the gym r studying fr an exam.
Say “n” when necessary. If yu’re a peple-pleaser, yu may find it hard t say “n” because yu feel it cmes acrss as cruel r uncaring. But it abslutely des nt have t. Be clear, be direct, and use “I” statements. Try statements like: “I wuld really lve t be able t help yu, but unfrtunately, I’m already cmmitted at that time.” By cnsistently integrating these strategies int yur life, yu’ll break yur peple-pleasing habits and develp mre healthy, interdependent relatinships.
40. What is a peple-pleaser like?
_______________________________________________________________________________________________
41. Besides mental and physical prblems, what ther prblems may a peple-pleaser suffer frm?
_______________________________________________________________________________________________
42. Please decide which part is false in the fllwing statement, then underline it and explain why.
If yu dn’t want t be a peple-pleaser, yu shuld lve being with thers, value the plans made with yurself, and decline thers’requests when necessary.

I was brn missing my left arm. In 1986, at 18 mnths, I was fitted with a prsthetic (义肢) device, a decisin made by my parents and dctrs s that I wuld develp “nrmally”.
I spent my entire childhd and adlescence trying t fit in. I did just abut anything t ease the pains f the stares and pinting fingers frm my classmates. By the time I was 8, I had n self-cnfidence, and the hand I was wearing was making it harder fr me t fit in. S I decided I was better ff withut ne. I didn’t need anyne t fix me.
T prve that I wasn’t limited by my disability, I develped a lve fr all sprts, in particular swimming. I was selected t my first Australian wmen’s swimming team at age 13 and successfully represented my cuntry fr eight years. I realized I’d made a name fr myself because f my disability.
I taught myself hw t be cmfrtable in a sciety filled with insecurities. S when I was first cntacted in 2021 by Cvvi, a cmpany trying t create the wrld’s mst advanced binic (仿生的) hand, I was a bit surprised. They asked me t trial the hand and, if pssible, t becme a patient advcate. Initially, I said n. Then, curisity gt the better f me.
While I was busy advcating fr disability rights, a new generatin f leaders, like Amy Purdy and Nick Vujicic, used the pwer f technlgy and scial media t display wheelchairs r artificial limbs withut explanatin. Peple feared disability less. Sciety was beginning t see a persn first, and their disability secnd.
Viewing disability thrugh a scial lens als meant acknwledging that a persn is mre disabled by their envirnment and the discriminatin f thers than by their actual disability. As thse cnversatins shifted, I realized that there was an pprtunity t use technlgy t steer the narrative fr future generatins. In July 2022, I decided t trial the hand.
The rle f patient advcate is an enrmus privilege. Thrugh sharing my jurney, I’m able t reach thusands f ther peple wh wuld benefit frm its extrardinary capabilities. That’s why I wear a binic hand—nt because I’m brken, but because I have an pprtunity t enhance the human capabilities that already exist.

Demanding days seem designed t test ur self-cntrl. We all need t rely n willpwer t avid shrt-term temptatins and verride unwanted thughts r impulses (冲动). The prevailing psychlgical thery prpsed that willpwer resembled a kind f battery. With each exercise f self-cntrl, yu exhausted this resurce. Withut a chance t recharge, that resurce ran lw, making it harder t maintain self-cntrl. This prcess was knwn as “eg depletin”.
In 2010, hwever, psychlgist Vernika Jb published a study that questined the fundatins f “eg depletin” thery, with sme interesting evidence that eg depletin depended n peple’s underlying beliefs. In the study, Jb divided participants int tw categries: thse with a “limited” view f willpwer and thse with a “nn-limited” view f willpwer, based n a prir questinnaire. She then gave the participants sme standard labratry tests examining mental fcus, which was cnsidered t depend n the reserves f willpwer. The study fund that peple with a limited mindset tended t perfrm exactly as eg depletin thery wuld predict but the nn-limited individuals did nt, which indicated that peple’s beliefs abut willpwer culd be self-fulfilling prphecies (预言). Thse wh believed willpwer was easily depleted saw their self-cntrl decrease, while thse wh believed in “mental stamina (耐力)” experienced n eg depletin.
Subsequent debates abut the reliability f the labratry tests f eg depletin emerged, but Jb’s wrk demnstrated that mindset significantly impacted real-life utcmes. Her fllw-up study revealed that after cmpleting demanding tasks, mst participants recvered t sme degree vernight, but thse with nn-limited mindsets actually experienced an increase in their prductivity the fllwing day, as if energized by the extra pressure.
If yu already have a nn-limited mindset abut willpwer, these findings might be a cause fr self-satisfactin. Fr thse with limited mindsets, hpe is nt lst. Learning abut this science can help shift beliefs. Sharing this knwledge with thers can further cnslidate this shift. Mrever, recllecting times f engaging in taxing yet enjyable tasks naturally shifts peple’s beliefs tward nn-limited mindsets, as they see prf f their wn men tal stamina. T prvide yurself with further evidence, yu can cnduct small self-cntrl tests. As yu realize yur willpwer’s grwth, yu’ll find resisting temptatins and distractins easier.
While immediate miracles aren’t guaranteed, perseverance will lead t a changed mindset and increased self-cntrl, prpelling actins tward persnal gals.
28. “Eg depletin” thery shws that willpwer ________.
A. helps cntrl ur impulsesB. reduces after exercising self-cntrl
C. is a test f yur characterD. is like a chargeable battery
29. What can we learn frm Jb’s tw studies?
A. Extra pressure bsts mental fcus.
B. Demanding tasks reduce mental fcus.
C. Reserves f willpwer depend n mental fcus.
D. The change f mental fcus relies n ne’s mindset.
30. Which f the fllwing can build nn-limited mindsets?
A. Picturing yur ideal university.
B. Ding hmewrk in frnt f a TV.
C. Sharing science knwledge with friends.
D. Recalling mastering a challenging pian piece.

This prcess was knwn as “eg depletin”.(每一次自我控制的练习,你都使这些资源筋疲力尽。在没有恢复的机会的情况下,这种资源就会耗尽,更难保持自制力。这个过程被称为“自我耗竭”)”可知,“自我耗竭”理论表明意志力会在进行自我控制后减少。故选B。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Her fllw-up study revealed that after cmpleting demanding tasks, mst participants recvered t sme degree vernight, but thse with nn-limited mindsets actually experienced an increase in their prductivity the fllwing day, as if energized by the extra pressure.(她的后续研究表明,在完成高要求的任务后,大多数参与者在一夜之间都恢复了一定程度,但那些心态不受限制的参与者第二天的生产力实际上有所提高,似乎受到了额外压力的激励)”可知,额外的压力可能会使人们得到激励,增强精神专注,提高生产力。故选A。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“Mrever, recllecting times f engaging in taxing yet enjyable tasks naturally shifts peple’s beliefs tward nn-limited mindsets, as they see prf f their wn mental stamina. (此外,回忆起从事费力但愉快的任务的时光,会自然地将人们的信念转向非限制的心态,因为他们看到了自己精神耐力的证明)”可知,回忆起从事费力但愉快的任务的时光可以帮助建立不受限制的心态,推断回忆起掌握了一首富有挑战性的钢琴曲是有帮助的。故选D。

Climate experts are having a debate: they are asking whether the UK shuld fcus mre n adapting t climate change r trying t prevent it.
David Frst hlds that preventing climate change is n lnger an ptin, given the extent t which the Earth nw appears certain t heat up. Despite the many plicies which attempt t stp climate change, it nw seems unavidable that the wrld will pass the 1.5℃ r 2℃ increases in average glbal temperature that are likely t induce large changes in the climate.
David Frst is right in that ur ecnmies are grwing s much slwer than we had anticipated. Our emissins can drp if we reduce emissins per unit f GDP we create—but they can als drp if the GDP is lwer. Lwer grwth means it is mre feasible (可行的) fr us t achieve targets such as Net Zer, but it als makes it less envirnmentally urgent t achieve thse targets s sn, because we are and have been emitting a lt less carbn than we had anticipated.
The UK authrity finds the debate abut adaptatin difficult. Partly, it is because sme activists claim that adaptatin is nt feasible. They say that climate change will end human civilizatin, ptentially leading t the entire extinctin f the human race.
Hwever, the mainstream view f many scientists and ecnmists, wh wrk n climate change, is that glbal warming culd lead t large changes in ur envirnment. Significant parts f the wrld currently heavily ppulated culd becme effectively uninhabitable while ther parts currently unsuitable fr high-density human habitatin wuld becme mre habitable. Meanwhile, at higher temperatures bth climate and weather are likely t becme mre vlatile—including increased frequency f strms, flding and ther weather events.
These wuld be significant changes, but it wuld be perfectly feasible fr humans t adapt t them. The issue is nt whether adapting wuld be technically feasible, but whether it wuld be desirable either in ethical r practical terms. Are we willing t accept a materially warmer wrld, with humans living in different parts f it? Are we willing t accept the pssible extinctins f certain species and the greater flurishing f thse currently less successful and f new species yet t evlve? Are we willing t accept the cnsequences f a large shift in the patterns f human habitatin acrss the wrld?
It is by n means clear n what basis we ught t ethnically privilege the plants and animals that flurish under tday’s climate ver thse that wuld flurish under a warmer, mre vlatile climate. Hwever, adaptatin will be feasible and is a necessity given the extent t which warming is nw unavidable. Slwer GDP grwth and thus slwer climate change ught t make greater effrts at adaptatin mre attractive.
31. Accrding t the passage, wh hesitate(s) t adapt t the climate change?
A. The gvernment.B. Climate experts.
C. David Frst.D. The activists.
32. The underlined wrd “vlatile” in Paragraph 5 prbably means ________.
AchangeableB. predictableC. bearableD. nticeable
33. The questins in Paragraph 6 are mainly aimed at __________.
A. expressing dubts abut peple’s adaptability
B. presenting examples f future climate patterns
C. highlighting the cnsequences f human activities
D. helping peple decide n their penness t adaptatin
34. Which f the fllwing might the authr agree with?
A. Slwing climate change deserves great effrts.
B. Glbal warming is preventable t sme extent.
C. Adaptatin t climate change is beynd questin.
D. Prtectin f the current species shuld be priritized.
【答案】31 D 32. A 33. D 34. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文,主要讲述了目前关于如何应对气候变化有两种不同观点——适应气候变化或者阻止气候变化,但作者认为适应气候变化是可行的和必要的。
【31题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Partly, it is because sme activists claim that adaptatin is nt feasible.(部分原因是一些积极分子声称适应是不可行的。)”可知,一些积极分子认为适应气候变化不可行,所以他们对适应气候变化感到犹豫。故选D。
【32题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第五段破折号后的“including increased frequency f strms, flding and ther weather events(包括暴风雨、洪水和其他天气事件的频率增加)”可知,风暴、洪水和其他天气事件发生的频率增加,由此可推测出,气候和天气可能变得更加多变。vlatile意为“易变的”,与changeable意思最接近。故选A。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。根据第六段中的“The issue is nt whether adapting wuld be technically feasible, but whether it wuld be desirable either in ethical r practical terms.(问题不在于适应在技术上是否可行,而在于从道德或实践角度来看是否可取。)”可知,从技术上来说适应气候变化是可行的,但问题是从道德或实践角度来看适应气候变化是否可取。接下来“Are we willing t accept a materially warmer wrld, with humans living in different parts f it? Are we willing t accept the pssible extinctins f certain species and the greater flurishing f thse currently less successful and f new species yet t evlve? Are we willing t accept the cnsequences f a large shift in the patterns f human habitatin acrss the wrld?(我们是否愿意接受一个实质上更温暖的世界,人类生活在这个世界的不同地方?我们是否愿意接受某些物种可能灭绝,以及那些目前不太成功的物种和尚未进化的新物种更加繁荣?我们是否愿意接受世界各地人类居住模式发生重大转变的后果?)”用提问的方式引发人们思考是否能接受气候变化带来的影响。由此可推测出,这些问题旨在帮助人们确定自己对适应的接受性。故选D。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Hwever, adaptatin will be feasible and is a necessity given the extent t which warming is nw unavidable.(然而,考虑到气候变暖目前不可避免的程度,适应将是可行的,也是必要的。)”可知,作者认为气候变暖是不可避免的,所以适应是可行的和必要的,由此可推测出,作者认为适应气候变化是毋庸置疑的。故选C。

And there is much t cheer abut calries being cheap and abundant.(许多人本能地会说前者更健康,也许是出于对加工食品的隐约担忧。加工食品往往很美味。而且含有让人欢呼雀跃的又多又便宜的卡路里。)”讲述了许多人对加工食品表示担忧,并先肯定了加工食品的优点,所以空处应讲述加油食品让人担忧的方面,C项“但那种多和便宜是要付出代价的。”与上文形成转折,且选项中的“cheapness and abundance”对应前句中的“cheap and abundant”。故选C。

后文“The ne in the freezer, with its extra, mdified ingredients, is upf.(冰箱里的披萨是超加工食品,里面含有额外的、经过改良的成分。)”中的The ne in the freezer与第一段中的“ne made frm the same basic ingredients, with the same number f calries, pulled ut f a bx in the freezer”对应,所以空处应是讲述从头开始制作的披萨的情况,E项“从零开始制作的披萨含有最低限度的加工食品。”符合题意,选项中的“A pizza made frm scratch”与第一段中的“a pizza made frm scratch”对应。故选E。
【37题详解】
前文“Upf displaces healthier alternatives, particularly fr pr peple.(超加工食品替代了更健康的食品,对穷人来说尤其如此。)”讲述了穷人用超加工食品替代了更健康的食品,空处应承接上文,陈述这么做的原因,B项“它的生产和购买成本低廉。”符合题意。故选B。
【38题详解】
后文“Additives that may be safe in small quantities may be harmful in cmbinatin with ther chemicals r when cnsumed regularly.(在少量使用时可能无害的添加剂,在与其他化学物质混合或经常摄入时可能会有害。)”讲述了有些添加剂在少量食用时无害,但在与其他化学成分混合或者经常使用时却有害,所以空处应是说超加工食品有害的原因并不总是很清晰。G项“超加工食品为何有害的原因并不总是清晰明了,甚至连科学家也不清楚。”符合题意。故选G。
【39题详解】
后文“Peple wh live in s-called ‘fd swamps’, where upf is everywhere but real fd is harder t reach, culd spend large amunts f time and mney seeking ut fresh fd, but that is nt hw mst peple live.(生活在所谓的‘食物沼泽’中的人们,那里的超加工食品无处不在,但真正的健康食物却很难获得,人们可能要花费大量的时间和金钱去寻找新鲜食物,但这并不是大多数人的生活方式。)”讲述了有些人生活在超加工食品泛滥的环境中,他们很难获得健康的食物,由此可知,人们所处的环境对健康也很重要。A项“环境也很重要。”符合题意。故选A。

阅读下面短文,根据题目要求用英文回答问题。请在答题纸指定区域作答。
If yu feel like yu may be a peple-pleaser, yu’re nt alne. In tday’s highly-cnnected wrld, we have a grwing bsessin (痴迷) with being liked and needing t please thers. Peple seek t please thers fr varius reasns, including aviding cnflicts, securing feelings f being needed, and reducing fears f abandnment. And they are frced t use agreeableness as self-defense.
Peple-pleasing behavir can lead t mental and physical health prblems such as fear f rejectin, frustratin, anger, addictins, headaches, stmach prblems, and high bld pressure. It can als result in weak bundaries, prblems with decisin-making and dependency. Therefre, it’s imprtant t recgnize and vercme yur wn peple-pleasing behavirs. Here are sme simple exercises that yu can start wrking n tday.
Learn t lve yur wn cmpany. Trust that peple will nt abandn yu, even if yu dn’t drp everything fr them. Believing yu are lvable fr wh yu are, nt what yu d, means knwing that peple will still be there fr yu even if yu d nt always search fr ways t please them. Practice this by ging t a mvie r restaurant alne.
Value the plans made with yurself. They are as imprtant as plans yu make with ther peple. Otherwise, yu are sending a message t yur brain that a plan yu make with yurself des nt hld as much value. Dn’t break lng-r shrt-term plans yu make with yurself, whether it’s ging t the gym r studying fr an exam.
Say “n” when necessary. If yu’re a peple-pleaser, yu may find it hard t say “n” because yu feel it cmes acrss as cruel r uncaring. But it abslutely des nt have t. Be clear, be direct, and use “I” statements. Try statements like: “I wuld really lve t be able t help yu, but unfrtunately, I’m already cmmitted at that time.” By cnsistently integrating these strategies int yur life, yu’ll break yur peple-pleasing habits and develp mre healthy, interdependent relatinships.
40. What is a peple-pleaser like?
_______________________________________________________________________________________________
41. Besides mental and physical prblems, what ther prblems may a peple-pleaser suffer frm?
_______________________________________________________________________________________________
42. Please decide which part is false in the fllwing statement, then underline it and explain why.
If yu dn’t want t be a peple-pleaser, yu shuld lve being with thers, value the plans made with yurself, and decline thers’requests when necessary.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________
43. What d yu think f the behavir f pleasing thers? (In abut 40 wrds)
_______________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】40. A peple-pleaser has a (grwing) bsessin with being liked and needing t please thers.
41. A peple-pleaser may suffer frm weak bundaries, prblems with decisin-makingand dependency.
42. If yu dn’t want t be a peple-pleaser, (yu shuld) lve being with thers, value the plans made with yurself, and decline thers’ requests when necessary. Yu shuld learn t lve yur wn cmpany.
43. I think it’s harmful t mental health. Always bsessed with being liked and ignring the true needs f ur wn, we wuld lse urselves and tie ur wrthiness t thers’ apprval. Once we fail t satisfy all, anxiety and frustratin wuld creep int ur minds, causing mental health issues.
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要讲的是取悦他人的人会出现的一些问题以及如何克服取悦他人的行为。
【40题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段的“If yu feel like yu may be a peple-pleaser, yu’re nt alne. In tday’s highly-cnnected wrld, we have a grwing bsessin (痴迷) with being liked and needing t please thers.(如果你觉得自己是一个讨人喜欢的人,那么你并不孤单。在当今这个高度互联的世界里,我们越来越痴迷于被喜欢,也越来越需要取悦他人。)”可知,取悦他人的人越来越痴迷于被人喜欢,需要取悦他人。故答案为A peple-pleaser has a (grwing) bsessin with being liked and needing t please thers.
【41题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段的“Peple-pleasing behavir can lead t mental and physical health prblems such as fear f rejectin, frustratin, anger, addictins, headaches, stmach prblems, and high bld pressure. It can als result in weak bundaries, prblems with decisin-making and dependency.(取悦他人的行为会导致精神和身体健康问题,比如害怕被拒绝、沮丧、愤怒、上瘾、头痛、胃病和高血压。它还可能导致边界薄弱,决策问题和依赖性。)”可知,除了精神和身体上的问题,取悦他人的人还可能会边界薄弱,决策问题和依赖性。故答案为A peple-pleaser may suffer frm weak bundaries, prblems with decisin-makingand dependency.
【42题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段的“Learn t lve yur wn cmpany.(学会爱自己的陪伴。)”,第四段的“Value the plans made with yurself.(重视自己制定的计划。)”和第五段的“Say “n” when necessary.(必要的时候说“不”。)”可知,如果你不想成为取悦别人的人,你应该学会爱自己的陪伴,重视自己制定的计划,必要时拒绝别人的要求,因此错误的部分是“(yu shuld) lve being with thers”,正确的应该是Yu shuld learn t lve yur wn cmpany,故答案为If yu dn’t want t be a peple-pleaser, (yu shuld) lve being with thers, value the plans made with yurself, and decline thers’ requests when necessary. Yu shuld learn t lve yur wn cmpany.
【43题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段的“Peple-pleasing behavir can lead t mental and physical health prblems such as fear f rejectin, frustratin, anger, addictins, headaches, stmach prblems, and high bld pressure. It can als result in weak bundaries, prblems with decisin-making and dependency.(取悦他人的行为会导致精神和身体健康问题,比如害怕被拒绝、沮丧、愤怒、上瘾、头痛、胃病和高血压。它还可能导致边界薄弱,决策问题和依赖性。)”并结合我个人的看法可知,我认为取悦他人对心理健康有害。总是沉迷于被人喜欢,而忽视了自己真正的需求,我们会迷失自我,把自己的价值与别人的认可联系在一起。一旦我们不能满足所有人,焦虑和沮丧就会潜入我们的脑海,导致心理健康问题,故答案为I think it’s harmful t mental health. Always bsessed with being liked and ignring the true needs f ur wn, we wuld lse urselves and tie ur wrthiness tthers’ apprval. Once we fail t satisfy all, anxiety and frustratin wuld creep int ur minds, causing mental health issues.
