What des it mean t live a gd life? This questin has been debated fr centuries. In the field f psychlgy, tw main cncepts f the gd life have been quite ppular: A happy life full f pleasure and psitive emtins, and a meaningful life full f purpse and sacrifice. But what if these aren’t the nly ptins?
In recent years, a lng-neglected versin f the gd life has been receiving greater attentin: the psychlgically rich life. It is full f cmplex mental engagement, a wide range f intense and deep emtins, and diverse, nvel, surprising and interesting experiences. Smetimes they are neither pleasant nr meaningful. Hwever, they are rarely bring r mntnus.
After all, bth happy and meaningful lives can becme mntnus and repetitive. A persn with a steady ffice jb, married with children, may be satisfied and find his r her life meaningful and still be bred. Als, the psychlgically rich life desn’t necessarily invlve ecnmic richness. Fr instance, cnsider Hesse’s character Gldmund, wh has n mney but pursues the life f a free spirit.
Research has fund psychlgical richness is related t, but partially distinct frm, bth happy and meaningful lives. Psychlgical richness is related with penness t experience and experiencing bth psitive and negative emtins mre intensely. But is the psychlgically rich life ne that peple actually want?
In a new study, Oishi and his clleagues asked peple in nine cuntries the degree t which they value a psychlgically rich life, a happy life and a meaningful life. They fund many peple’s self-described ideal lives invlve psychlgical richness. When frced t chse a life, hwever, the majrity chse a happy life and a meaningful life. Even s, a minrity f peple still favred the psychlgically rich life, ranging frm 6.7% in Singapre t 16.8% in Germany.
These numbers went up when the desire fr a psychlgically rich life was measured indirectly. T understand what a persn wishes their lives might have been, it is imprtant t explre what peple wish they had avided in their lives. When asked what they regret mst and whether unding this event wuld have made their lives happier, mre meaningful r psychlgically richer, abut 28% f Americans said unding the regrettable event wuld have made their lives psychlgically richer.
These findings suggest that while mst peple strive t be happy and have meaning in their lives, a sizable number f peple are cntent merely living a psychlgically rich existence.
As Oishi and his clleagues cnclude, “We believe that taking the psychlgically rich life seriusly will deepen and enrich ur understanding f well-being.” At the end f the day, there is n ne singularly acceptable path t the gd life. Yu have t find a path that wrks best fr yu.
37. Accrding t the passage, the psychlgically rich life _______.
A. means living a luxurius life
B. invlves varius intense emtins
C. cmbines pleasure with purpse
D. emphasizes penness and repetitin
38. What des Oishi’s research indicate?
A. The Germans prefer psychlgical richness t a happy life.
B. Unding regrettable events has enriched many peple’s lives.
C A hidden desire fr psychlgical richness exists amng sme peple.
D. Peple with psychlgical richness tend t describe their lives as ideal.
39. We can learn frm the passage that _______.
A. purpse utweighs pleasure in terms f significance
B. the chice f a gd life differs frm persn t persn
C. a psitive mindset helps us understand ur well-being
D. we shuld never be cntent and always strive fr the best
40. What is the main purpse f the article?
A. T cmpare different cncepts f a gd life.
B. T explain hw t live a psychlgically rich life.
C. T persuade peple t attain psychlgical richness.
D. T draw attentin t a less familiar versin f a gd life.

On August 28th at a presentatin ver the Internet, Mr. Musk shwed ff the prgress f his firm, Neuralink. The highlight was the appearance f Gertrude, a pig with a chip implanted (植入) int her brain.
Reading the brain’s electrical signals, a technique called electrencephalgraphy (EEG), started ver 100 years ag and is nw rutine. It generally invlves placing nn-invasive electrdes (非侵入式电极) n the scalp (头皮), thugh it smetimes requires the invasive insertin f wires int the scalp r the brain. Nn-invasive EEG prvides useful infrmatin, and can even be used t d things like playing cmputer games. Invasive EEG ffers mre accurate readings frm the nerve cells in the brain, thugh at greater risk because f the surgery invlved. The device Gertrude carries, knwn technically as a brain-cmputer interface (接口), carries invasiveness ne stage further by making the EEG recrder a ptentially permanent implant.
Alng with this imprved interface, Neuralink has built a rbt that will implant it. T d s, the rbt first takes a high-reslutin scan f the recipient’s brain. Using this, it is able t sew the electrde threads int place with a precisin that avids any bld tubes in the area, which reduces the risk f damage during surgery. The rbt can put the interface in place in less than an hur. General anesthesia (麻醉) is nt needed fr the prcedure.
One challenge the firm wants t tackle is sending electrical signals int the brain. Mr. Musk says this will require a range f inputs including delicate stimulatin and large amunts f currents. The pint f ding s will be t establish tw-way cmmunicatins. This culd allw entirely new areas f treatment t be explred. Besides epilepsy (癫痫) preventin, such brain stimulatin might als wrk t treat depressin. Mre imprtant in the lng run, it is als essential t Musk’s visin f widespread engagement between peple and machines. This, he hpes, will result in a future where memries can be dwnladed and stred elsewhere, and humans can frm a relatinship with AI that is mutually dependent and beneficial.
Nt everyne is impressed. Critics wrry that Neuralink is t secretive, and that Mr. Musk’s visin prmises mre than he can deliver. He des, thugh, have a recrd f ding what he says he is ging t, despite the fact that smetimes nt as rapidly as he says he will. He mre r less single-handedly intrduced battery-electric cars t the market and he built a successful space-rcket business ut f nthing. Brains are a lt mre cmplicated than cars, and even than rcket science. But d nt bet against the cming int being at sme pint f the Musk visin f brains and cmputers wrking tgether directly.
41. What can we learn abut EEG?
A. EEG requires the insertin f electrdes.
B. Nn-invasive EEG is superir in safety and speed.
C. Invasive EEG functins better in reading nerve cells.
D. EEG can be updated by using the brain-cmputer interface.
42. In Paragraph 3, the authr describes the implantatin t shw _______.
A. the advantages f using the rbt
B. the simplicity f the prcedure
C. the imprvement f the interface
D. the pssible risks f the surgery
43. Accrding t the text, _______.
A. Musk achieves mre in brain study than in rcket science
B. brain stimulatin is crucial fr peple-machine interactin
C. new methds f treatment have been researched and created
D. the firm has difficulty finding the right kind f input fr brains
44. What’s the authr’s attitude twards Musk’s visin?
A. Psitive.B. Negative.
C. Dubtful.D. Neutral.

Hw t Stp Overthinking
We all have times when we wrry, whether it’s abut wrk, health, family, relatinships r a hst f ther reasns. But is there a pint when yu may think and wrry t much?
Overthinking is an unhealthy habit that typically causes mre stress by fcusing n the negative instead f cming up with lgical slutins. Fr example, we may start wrrying abut a specific situatin at wrk, which leads t wrrying abut mney r lsing jbs.
But why d we tend t verthink? This is ften due t cgnitive errrs, which are basically errrs in lgical thinking, such as all-r-nthing thinking and vergeneralisatin. Althugh verthinking is hard t break, Natacha Duke, a registered psychtherapist, utlines strategies that can help.
“Healthy distractin can be useful,” says Duke. Activities like reading and taking a walk can help keep ur stress levels dwn. They can reduce ur baseline level f anxiety and make us less likely t verthink.
Duke adds, “Keeping a daily jurnal can help us actively manage stress befre ur feelings expand ut f cntrl.” As we practise jurnaling ur emtins and thughts, it becmes easier t identify when we’re starting t wrry. Stpping wrrying early will ultimately help us feel better and stay fcused n what matters mst t us.
Sme peple cnstantly think abut questins like “What if I lse my jb?” r “What if I get sick?” While having these thughts is nrmal, it becmes a prblem when we fcus nly n the wrst-case situatin. “Fr every ‘what if’ wrry, change this t an ‘if then’ statement where yu cme up with ideas t deal with the wrry r the wrst-case situatin,” says Duke. “Fcus n having a cncrete plan in place.”
S, face the prblems, then challenge and reframe them. Finally, we will develp effective ways t cpe with verthinking.
50. What is verthinking?
________________
51. What causes verthinking?
________________
52. Please decide which part is false in the fllwing statement, then underline it and explain why.
A man can stp verthinking if he changes “what if” questins t “if then” statements, because it helps him fcus n the wrst-case situatin.
________________
53. Besides the suggestins mentined in the passage, what ther advice will yu give t a persn wh is always verthinking?

20. best
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了唐卡是由布或纸做成的，还介绍了唐卡的内容和题材。
【17题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：它是用布或纸做成的，可以卷成一捆放在卷轴上，便于运输。句子已经由谓语动词is made f和can be rlled，所以动词make要以非谓语的形式出现。非谓语动词make和其逻辑主语bundle是主动关系，应用现在分词作状语。故填making。
【18题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：被誉为“西藏文化百科全书”的唐卡，涉及的话题非常广泛。句子谓语动词为cvers，所以动词knw要以非谓语形式出现。非谓语动词knw和起逻辑主语Thangka是被动关系，应用过去分词作后置定语。故填knwn。
【19题详解】
考查状语从句。句意：虽然唐卡的内容和主题丰富多样，但主要内容是藏族民间文化的形象和选择的日子。根据下文“the main cntent is the image f Tibetan flk culture and pt day”可知，虽然唐卡内容主题多样，但是更多还是以藏族民间文化为主，所以用althugh/thugh引导让步状语从句。故填Althugh/Thugh。
【20题详解】

What des it mean t live a gd life? This questin has been debated fr centuries. In the field f psychlgy, tw main cncepts f the gd life have been quite ppular: A happy life full f pleasure and psitive emtins, and a meaningful life full f purpse and sacrifice. But what if these aren’t the nly ptins?
In recent years, a lng-neglected versin f the gd life has been receiving greater attentin: the psychlgically rich life. It is full f cmplex mental engagement, a wide range f intense and deep emtins, and diverse, nvel, surprising and interesting experiences. Smetimes they are neither pleasant nr meaningful. Hwever, they are rarely bring r mntnus.
After all, bth happy and meaningful lives can becme mntnus and repetitive. A persn with a steady ffice jb, married with children, may be satisfied and find his r her life meaningful and still be bred. Als, the psychlgically rich life desn’t necessarily invlve ecnmic richness. Fr instance, cnsider Hesse’s character Gldmund, wh has n mney but pursues the life f a free spirit.
Research has fund psychlgical richness is related t, but partially distinct frm, bth happy and meaningful lives. Psychlgical richness is related with penness t experience and experiencing bth psitive and negative emtins mre intensely. But is the psychlgically rich life ne that peple actually want?
In a new study, Oishi and his clleagues asked peple in nine cuntries the degree t which they value a psychlgically rich life, a happy life and a meaningful life. They fund many peple’s self-described ideal lives invlve psychlgical richness. When frced t chse a life, hwever, the majrity chse a happy life and a meaningful life. Even s, a minrity f peple still favred the psychlgically rich life, ranging frm 6.7% in Singapre t 16.8% in Germany.
These numbers went up when the desire fr a psychlgically rich life was measured indirectly. T understand what a persn wishes their lives might have been, it is imprtant t explre what peple wish they had avided in their lives. When asked what they regret mst and whether unding this event wuld have made their lives happier, mre meaningful r psychlgically richer, abut 28% f Americans said unding the regrettable event wuld have made their lives psychlgically richer.
These findings suggest that while mst peple strive t be happy and have meaning in their lives, a sizable number f peple are cntent merely living a psychlgically rich existence.
As Oishi and his clleagues cnclude, “We believe that taking the psychlgically rich life seriusly will deepen and enrich ur understanding f well-being.” At the end f the day, there is n ne singularly acceptable path t the gd life. Yu have t find a path that wrks best fr yu.
37. Accrding t the passage, the psychlgically rich life _______.
A. means living a luxurius life
B. invlves varius intense emtins
C. cmbines pleasure with purpse
D. emphasizes penness and repetitin
38. What des Oishi’s research indicate?

B. Unding regrettable events has enriched many peple’s lives.
C. A hidden desire fr psychlgical richness exists amng sme peple.
D. Peple with psychlgical richness tend t describe their lives as ideal.
39. We can learn frm the passage that _______.
A. purpse utweighs pleasure in terms f significance
B. the chice f a gd life differs frm persn t persn
C. a psitive mindset helps us understand ur well-being
D. we shuld never be cntent and always strive fr the best

【答案】37. B 38. C 39. B 40. D
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章提出除了传统观念的好的生活之外，另一种好生活——心理丰富的生活应该得到关注。
【详解】1.细节理解题。根据第二段第二句“It is full f cmplex mental engagement, a wide range f intense and deep emtins, and diverse, nvel, surprising and interesting experiences.”（它充满了复杂的心理参与，广泛的强烈和深刻的情感，以及多样的、新奇的、惊奇的和有趣的体验。）可知，心理丰富的生活包含了各种强烈的情感。故选B。
2.细节理解题。根据倒第二段“These findings suggest that while mst peple strive t be happy and have meaning in their lives, a sizable number f peple are cntent merely living a psychlgically rich existence.”（这些发现表明，虽然大多数人努力让自己快乐，让自己的生活有意义，但仍有相当数量的人仅仅满足于心理上丰富的生活。）可知，Oishi的调查显示在一些人当中，隐藏着一种对心理丰富的渴望。故选C。
3.推理判断题。根据第五段最后两句“When frced t chse a life, hwever, the majrity chse a happy life and a meaningful life. Even s, a minrity f peple still favred the psychlgically rich life, ranging frm 6.7% in Singapre t 16.8% in Germany.”（然而，当被迫选择一种生活时，大多数人选择了幸福的生活和有意义的生活。即便如此，仍有一小部分人青睐心理富裕的生活，从新加坡的6.7%到德国的16.8%不等。）可知，对于好的生活的选择因人而异。故选B。
4.推理判断题。文章第一段中提出问题“What des it mean t live a gd life? ”（过好生活意味着什么?）并指出“In the field f psychlgy, tw main cncepts f the gd life have been quite ppular: A happy life full f pleasure and psitive emtins, and a meaningful life full f purpse and sacrifice.”（在心理学领域，关于美好生活的两个主要概念一直很流行：一个是充满快乐和积极情绪的幸福生活，一个是充满目标和牺牲的有意义的生活。）然后提出问题“But what if these aren’t the nly ptins?”（但如果这些不是唯一的选择呢?）所以文章的目的是想提出一种不与传统概念相同的另一种好的生活的选择，并在第二段中提出“In recent years, a lng-neglected versin f the gd life has been receiving greater attentin: the psychlgically rich life.”（近年来，一个长期被忽视的美好生活的版本越来越受到关注：心理丰富的生活。）可知这篇文章的主要目的是让人们注意到不太熟悉的美好生活。故选D。

The device Gertrude carries, knwn technically as a brain-cmputer interface (接口), carries invasiveness ne stage further by making the EEG recrder a ptentially permanent implant.
Alng with this imprved interface, Neuralink has built a rbt that will implant it. T d s, the rbt first takes a high-reslutin scan f the recipient’s brain. Using this, it is able t sew the electrde threads int place with a precisin that avids any bld tubes in the area, which reduces the risk f damage during surgery. The rbt can put the interface in place in less than an hur. General anesthesia (麻醉) is nt needed fr the prcedure.
One challenge the firm wants t tackle is sending electrical signals int the brain. Mr. Musk says this will require a range f inputs including delicate stimulatin and large amunts f currents. The pint f ding s will be t establish tw-way cmmunicatins. This culd allw entirely new areas f treatment t be explred. Besides epilepsy (癫痫) preventin, such brain stimulatin might als wrk t treat depressin. Mre imprtant in the lng run, it is als essential t Musk’s visin f widespread engagement between peple and machines. This, he hpes, will result in a future where memries can be dwnladed and stred elsewhere, and humans can frm a relatinship with AI that is mutually dependent and beneficial.
Nt everyne is impressed. Critics wrry that Neuralink is t secretive, and that Mr. Musk’s visin prmises mre than he can deliver. He des, thugh, have a recrd f ding what he says he is ging t, despite the fact that smetimes nt as rapidly as he says he will. He mre r less single-handedly intrduced battery-electric cars t the market and he built a successful space-rcket business ut f nthing. Brains are a lt mre cmplicated than cars, and even than rcket science. But d nt bet against the cming int being at sme pint f the Musk visin f brains and cmputers wrking tgether directly.

Hw t Stp Overthinking
We all have times when we wrry, whether it’s abut wrk, health, family, relatinships r a hst f ther reasns. But is there a pint when yu may think and wrry t much?
Overthinking is an unhealthy habit that typically causes mre stress by fcusing n the negative instead f cming up with lgical slutins. Fr example, we may start wrrying abut a specific situatin at wrk, which leads t wrrying abut mney r lsing jbs.
But why d we tend t verthink? This is ften due t cgnitive errrs, which are basically errrs in lgical thinking, such as all-r-nthing thinking and vergeneralisatin. Althugh verthinking is hard t break, Natacha Duke, a registered psychtherapist, utlines strategies that can help.
“Healthy distractin can be useful,” says Duke. Activities like reading and taking a walk can help keep ur stress levels dwn. They can reduce ur baseline level f anxiety and make us less likely t verthink.
Duke adds, “Keeping a daily jurnal can help us actively manage stress befre ur feelings expand ut f cntrl.” As we practise jurnaling ur emtins and thughts, it becmes easier t identify when we’re starting t wrry. Stpping wrrying early will ultimately help us feel better and stay fcused n what matters mst t us.
Sme peple cnstantly think abut questins like “What if I lse my jb?” r “What if I get sick?” While having these thughts is nrmal, it becmes a prblem when we fcus nly n the wrst-case situatin. “Fr every ‘what if’ wrry, change this t an ‘if then’ statement where yu cme up with ideas t deal with the wrry r the wrst-case situatin,” says Duke. “Fcus n having a cncrete plan in place.”
S, face the prblems, then challenge and reframe them. Finally, we will develp effective ways t cpe with verthinking.
50. What is verthinking?
________________
51. What causes verthinking?
________________
52. Please decide which part is false in the fllwing statement then underline it and explain why.
A man can stp verthinking if he changes “what if” questins t “if then” statements because it helps him fcus n the wrst-case situatin.
________________
53. Besides the suggestins mentined in the passage, what ther advice will yu give t a persn wh is always verthinking?

【答案】50. Overthinking is an unhealthy habit that typically causes mre stress by fcusing n the negative instead f cming up with lgical slutins.
51. This is ften due t cgnitive errrs, which are basically errrs in lgical thinking, such as all-r-nthing thinking and vergeneralisatin.
52. A man can stp verthinking if he changes “what if” questins t “if then” statements, because it helps him fcus n the wrst-case situatin.
