(2024·安徽皖北协作区一模)
When we think about lives filled with meaning，we often focus on people whose grand contributions benefited humanity．Abraham Lincoln，Martin Luther King and Nelson Mandela surely felt they had a worthwhile life．But how about us ordinary people，struggling in a typical existence
There is an important element to consider．Think about the first butterfly you stop to admire after a long winter or imagine the scenery at the top of a hill after a fresh hike．Sometimes existence delivers us small moments of beauty．When people are open to appreciating such experiences，these moments may enhance how they view their lives．This element is defined as EA (experiential appreciation) by Joshua Hicks，a psychological professor at Texas A&M University．
Recently，he and his research team set out to figure out whether EA was related to a person's sense of meaning in a series of studies that involved more than 3，000 participants．At an initial test，researchers had participants rate their agreement of different coping strategies to relieve their stress．They found people who managed stress by focusing on their appreciation for life's beauty also reported experiencing life as highly meaningful．
Researchers then conducted a series of experiments，in which they gave participants specific tasks and，once more，asked them to report how strongly they identified with statements linked to purpose，etc．In one case，participants who watched an awe-inspiring video reported having a greater sense of EA and meaning in life，compared with those who watched more neutral videos．After reflecting on the results collected from the participants，researchers confirmed their original theory．
But applying that insight can be difficult．Our modern，fast-paced，project-oriented lifestyles fill the day with targets and goals．We are on the go，and we attempt to maximize output both at work and at leisure．
This focus on future outcomes makes it all too easy to miss what is happening right now．Yet life happens in the present moment．We should slow down，let life surprise us and embrace the significance in the everyday life．
4．Why are the butterfly and the scenery on a hill mentioned in paragraph 2？(　　)
A．To introduce a concept．
B．To attract readers' interest．
C．To demonstrate the beauty of nature．
D．To show the necessity of protecting nature．
5．How did the researchers conduct the study？(　　)
A．By designing different strategies to reduce stress．
B．By studying previous research data．
C．By shooting videos starring the participants．
D．By analyzing the response from the participants．
6．Who tends to find life more meaningful according to the text？(　　)
A．A person who always gets his/her life well-organized．
B．A person who often hears motivating speeches．
C．A person who leads a fast-paced life．
D．A person who always expects future results．
7．What life philosophy does the author show in the last paragraph？(　　)
A．No pains，no gains．
B．Those who believe in their ability can do anything．
C．Live your life one day at a time．
D．Being on sea，sail; being on land，settle．

(2025年1月·八省高考适应性考试)
Jim Johnson，a mail carrier，was an institution in the leafy Westmoreland，Westhaven and Westover Hills neighborhoods，just north of downtown Wilmington，where he delivered much more than the mail． He knew all the kids and their pets by name；he carried in the groceries；he took note of unlocked doors，offered gardening advice，and taught more than a few young boys the art of the curveball． When he wasn't doing all that，Jim was running across a checkerboard of green lawns(草坪) to ensure the local postal service did not fall short of its daily promise．
Though the postal service is often disparaged now，the trust in local postal service lives on．In many communities，that trust is won every day when life-saving medicine，greeting cards，social security checks，college acceptance letters—even the bills—appear in mailboxes in front of the houses．
After more than three decades，Jim approached his final days on the job much like any other． He drove a boxy postal truck to North DuPont Road for the first unofficial stop of the day．Butch，a dog who belonged to one of the neighbors，was waiting just like every day before．And just like every day before，he got into the jump seat and they were off． On the route，Jim and Butch had become inseparable．Now，the dog and the mailman would ride off to retirement together．At every stop，Jim accepted the parting good wishes of families that had become his own． There were tears and laughter，and hugs filled with warm memories．
It's been 33 years since Jim left the route，but we are still reminded of the deep bond established between community and letter carrier．That's what the postal service means to us．
8．What do we know about Jim Johnson from the first paragraph？(　　)
A．He's open-minded． B．He's sharp-eyed．
C．He's warm-hearted． D．He's strong-willed．
9．What does the underlined word “disparaged” in paragraph 2 mean？(　　)
A．Refused． B．Criticized．
C．Investigated． D．Suspended．
10．What did Jim do besides daily delivery on his final days of work？(　　)
A．He drove Butch to its owner．
B．He sent presents to his friends．
C．He prepared a retirement party．
D．He said goodbye to the neighbors．
11．What is the author's purpose in writing the text？(　　)
A．To remember a respected mail carrier．
B．To record an unforgettable experience．
C．To raise funds for the postal service．
D．To call for harmony in the community．

The Humble Administrator's Garden，Suzhou，China (1513)

B 篇(限时7分钟)
(2024·安徽皖北协作区一模)
When we think about lives filled with meaning，we often focus on people whose grand contributions benefited humanity．Abraham Lincoln，Martin Luther King and Nelson Mandela surely felt they had a worthwhile life．But how about us ordinary people，struggling in a typical existence
There is an important element to consider．Think about the first butterfly you stop to admire after a long winter or imagine the scenery at the top of a hill after a fresh hike．Sometimes existence delivers us small moments of beauty．When people are open to appreciating such experiences，these moments may enhance how they view their lives．This element is defined as EA (experiential appreciation) by Joshua Hicks，a psychological professor at Texas A&M University．
Recently，he and his research team set out to figure out whether EA was related to a person's sense of meaning in a series of studies that involved more than 3，000 participants．At an initial test，researchers had participants rate their agreement of different coping strategies to relieve their stress．They found people who managed stress by focusing on their appreciation for life's beauty also reported experiencing life as highly meaningful．
Researchers then conducted a series of experiments，in which they gave participants specific tasks and，once more，asked them to report how strongly they identified with statements linked to purpose，etc．In one case，participants who watched an awe-inspiring video reported having a greater sense of EA and meaning in life，compared with those who watched more neutral videos．After reflecting on the results collected from the participants，researchers confirmed their original theory．
But applying that insight can be difficult．Our modern，fast-paced，project-oriented lifestyles fill the day with targets and goals．We are on the go，and we attempt to maximize output both at work and at leisure．
This focus on future outcomes makes it all too easy to miss what is happening right now．Yet life happens in the present moment．We should slow down，let life surprise us and embrace the significance in the everyday life．
【语篇解读】　本文是一篇说明文。研究表明，能欣赏生活中的美的人更能发现生活的意义，而我们现代、快节奏、以项目为导向的生活方式让我们忽略了当下正在发生的事情。文章呼吁我们应当活在当下。
4．Why are the butterfly and the scenery on a hill mentioned in paragraph 2？(　　)

B．To attract readers' interest．
C．To demonstrate the beauty of nature．
D．To show the necessity of protecting nature．
A　[推理判断题。根据第一段提出的问题“普通人的生命对比有伟大贡献的人是否有意义？”及第二段可知，第二段通过在山上欣赏美丽的蝴蝶和美景的例子来引入一个概念——体验性欣赏。故选A。]
5．How did the researchers conduct the study？(　　)
A．By designing different strategies to reduce stress．
B．By studying previous research data．
C．By shooting videos starring the participants．
D．By analyzing the response from the participants．

C 篇(限时7分钟)
(2025年1月·八省高考适应性考试)
Jim Johnson，a mail carrier，was an institution in the leafy Westmoreland，Westhaven and Westover Hills neighborhoods，just north of downtown Wilmington，where he delivered much more than the mail． He knew all the kids and their pets by name；he carried in the groceries；he took note of unlocked doors，offered gardening advice，and taught more than a few young boys the art of the curveball． When he wasn't doing all that，Jim was running across a checkerboard of green lawns(草坪) to ensure the local postal service did not fall short of its daily promise．
Though the postal service is often disparaged now，the trust in local postal service lives on．In many communities，that trust is won every day when life-saving medicine，greeting cards，social security checks，college acceptance letters—even the bills—appear in mailboxes in front of the houses．
After more than three decades，Jim approached his final days on the job much like any other． He drove a boxy postal truck to North DuPont Road for the first unofficial stop of the day．Butch，a dog who belonged to one of the neighbors，was waiting just like every day before．And just like every day before，he got into the jump seat and they were off． On the route，Jim and Butch had become inseparable．Now，the dog and the mailman would ride off to retirement together．At every stop，Jim accepted the parting good wishes of families that had become his own． There were tears and laughter，and hugs filled with warm memories．
It's been 33 years since Jim left the route，but we are still reminded of the deep bond established between community and letter carrier．That's what the postal service means to us．
【语篇解读】　本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了邮递员Jim Johnson在Wilmington北部社区服务的故事。他不仅尽职送信，还记得每个孩子和宠物的名字，帮忙送杂货，提供园艺建议。工作33年后退休时，他与一条名叫Butch的狗成为好友。虽然现在邮政服务常受批评，但像Jim这样的邮递员为社区带来的温暖和信任一直被人们铭记。
8．What do we know about Jim Johnson from the first paragraph？(　　)
A．He's open-minded． B．He's sharp-eyed．
C．He's warm-hearted． D．He's strong-willed．
C　[推理判断题。根据第一段中“He knew all the kids and their pets by name; he carried in the groceries; he took note of unlocked doors，offered gardening advice，and taught more than a few young boys the art of the curveball．”可知，Jim不仅送信，还帮助居民做很多事情，记住每个孩子和宠物的名字，帮忙送杂货，关注居民安全，教孩子们打球，这些行为都体现了他热心善良的性格特征。故选C。]
9．What does the underlined word “disparaged” in paragraph 2 mean？(　　)
A．Refused． B．Criticized．
C．Investigated． D．Suspended．
B　[词义猜测题。第二段提到 “Though the postal service is often disparaged now，the trust in local postal service lives on．”，从上下文可以看出，这里形成转折关系，虽然邮政服务现在经常受到负面评价，但人们依然信任邮递员。因此“disparaged”表示“受到批评”的意思。故选B。]
10．What did Jim do besides daily delivery on his final days of work？(　　)
A．He drove Butch to its owner．
B．He sent presents to his friends．
C．He prepared a retirement party．
D．He said goodbye to the neighbors．
D　[细节理解题。根据第三段中“At every stop，Jim accepted the parting good wishes of families that had become his own． There were tears and laughter，and hugs filled with warm memories．” 可知，在最后的工作日，Jim在每个停靠点都接受了居民们的道别祝福。故选D。]
11．What is the author's purpose in writing the text？(　　)
A．To remember a respected mail carrier．
B．To record an unforgettable experience．
C．To raise funds for the postal service．
D．To call for harmony in the community．
A　[写作意图题。通过全文，特别是最后一段中“It's been 33 years since Jim left the route，but we are still reminded of the deep bond established between community and letter carrier．” 可以看出，作者的写作目的是要纪念这位受人尊敬的邮递员Jim，展现他与社区之间建立的深厚情谊。故选A。]
