Laziness and Lack of Sleep Can Shorten Your Life, Especially When Combined
You already know that smoking is bad for you and that drinking too much alcohol may shorten your life. Now a new study says that spending too much time in a chair and not having enough sleep should join a short list of
behaviors 21 (know) to increase your risk of premature death.
Sitting for a long time and lack of sleep were damaging in their own way, but when combined with more
traditional risk factors, 22 had a multiplier effect that made an early death far more likely.
The findings, published in the journal PLOS Medicine, make clear that “some risk behaviors tend to come
together and 23 the joint risk could be much higher than the sum of the individual risks” .
For instance, smoking was 24 (dangerous) single risk factor among the six studied. The small number of people for 25 smoking was their only bad habit were 90 percent more likely to die during the course of the study than people who were with practical clean living in every aspect. People who reported high alcohol consumption as their only risk factor did not seem 26 (put) their lives in danger. But for those who combined heavy drinking with smoking, the risk of premature death was doubled. And when lack of sleep 27 (add) to the mix, the likelihood of an early death was nearly five times greater 28 lack of
sleep by itself had only a light effect on death.
These numbers are based on the lives of 231,048 Australians.
29 (consider) factors such as age, gender, education and other factors, the researchers saw a clear
pattern. It was a person’s bad lifestyle 30 contributed to his or her risk of premature death.

A. disturbing B. resources C. altered D. effective E. recorded F. permanently
When an endangered seabird hits a power line, it makes a sound “very much like the laser sound from Star Wars,” says conservation biologist Marc Travers. He should know, as his team from the Endangered Seabird Recovery Project 31 thousands of hours of audio to determine if power lines affected local seabirds. Travers
was trying to help establish how frequently birds are killed by power lines on the island of Kauai in Hawaii in 2011.
His team recorded 600 hours of audio and sent the recordings to Conservation Metrics, a company that assists conservation efforts with AI 32 . Conservation Metrics used a program to “listen” to the recordings and count the sounds that 33 bird electrocutions( 电 击 ). The result was 34 , as the number of bird electrocutions was in the thousands. Armed with proof that power lines were killing a significant number of birds,
the team worked with the local utility (公共事业) service to reduce bird deaths.
In science fiction stories such as The Matrix, AI-powered 35 take over the world and end life on the planet as we know it. But in reality, programs that use AI to sort through mountains of data might just save some
species from disappearing 36 .
By many measures, humans have been poor managers of the planet. Humans have 37 as much as 97 percent of land ecosystems. Key populations of monitored animals have declined as much as 68 percent since 1970. The decline in biodiversity around the world has created a hopeless situation. Conservation efforts lack key
resources they need to be 38 .
Fortunately, humans now have AI-based tools that can help. AI can quickly and 39 sort through large amounts of data created by observations in the field. Then other programs such as PAWS (Protection Assistant for
Wildlife Security) can help analyze the data and suggest the most effective ways to focus conservation efforts.
In large national parks and wildlife reserves, illegal hunters are a danger for animals both big and small. Some animals are worth a lot of money on the black market. Park rangers are left with a(n) 40 task because there is too much land to cover. But the PAWS program allows rangers to focus their efforts. PAWS has even
predicted the existence of trap lines in areas not yet checked by rangers!
We still face many challenges to change the loss of wildlife, but AI-powered programs promise to be a
powerful conservation tool.

In 2007, a group of researchers began testing a concept that seems as if it would never need testing: Is more happiness always better than less The researchers asked college students to rate their feelings on a scale from “unhappy” to “very happy” and compared the results with academic and social outcomes. Although the “very happy” participants had brilliant social lives, they performed 41 in school than those who were merely
“happy” .
The researchers then examined a data set from another study that rated college freshmen’s “cheerfulness” and 42 their income nearly two decades later. They found that the most 43 were not the highest earners. That distinction ( 荣誉) once again went to the second-highest group, which rated their cheerfulness as
“above average.”
As with everything in life, happiness has its 44 . Pursuing happiness to the exclusion of other goals-known as psychological hedonism (享乐主义)—is 45 . It gives a life where you do not reach your full potential, where you are 46 to take risks, where you choose temporary pleasures over challenging
experiences that give life meaning.
When I talk with people about their fear of negative outcomes in life, their true source of fear, in many cases, 47 how they will feel about having failed, not about the consequence of the failure itself. This is similar to the way that discomfort with 48 causes more anxiety than guaranteed bad news. To 49 these
bad feelings, people give up kinds of opportunities that involve the possibility of failure.
However, bringing good things into your life, whether love or career success, usually involves risk. Risk does not, of course, 50 make us happy. A risky life will very likely bring disappointment, but it can bring
greater 51 than a life played safe, as the studies above suggested.
None of this is to say that we are foolish for wanting to be happy. 52 , the desire for happiness is natural and normal. Making the pursuit of positive feelings your highest or only goal, however, is a costly life strategy. Endless happiness is impossible to achieve, and doing so 53 many of the elements of a good life. As the Canadian-American psychologist Paul Bloom wrote, “It’s the 54 we choose that affords the
most opportunity for pleasure, meaning, and personal growth.”
Though pain should never be anyone’s goal, each of us can strive for a rich life in which we not only seek the
sunshine but fully 55 the rain that inevitably falls as well. This is the paradox (悖论) of being fully alive.
41. A. unwillingly B. unpleasantly C. admirably D. incredibly

If I have a goal in life, it isn’t to be driving a Rolls-Royce. It’s to be giving away more than $1,000,000 a year and having an impact on people’s lives. I have the success today because I always had to work for what I wanted. I
grew up accustomed to risks and disappointments, so I was used to moving forward, no matter what.
In 2008, I went to Los Angeles where I tried to get hired as an agent, an analyst and a financial broker.
Unfortunately, all these doors slammed in my face. The world’s economy was in a bad state, so I knew I would
have to do a little spinning of my own.
Youth involves a certain innocence but also perseverance. The word “can’t” wasn’t in my vocabulary. I
partnered with a friend buying distressed multifamily properties around Houston. Even though we were enthusiastic
and backed with start-up sums, I didn’t make a deal work. My friend moved on to other projects. Alone, I put all
my money into the next real-estate project. I put the time in, I dreamed it, but once again the deal fell through. Two months later, though, the deal came back around. That was when the path opened, luck changed, and I was ready to
form my own company. I haven’t looked back. Only ahead.
I’m now able to give back to communities and causes. I donate about $500,000 a year, much of that going to research to cure rare diseases. We also support a lot of services for disadvantaged children in Houston and other
places.
I have always been someone who can see the big picture and have never been distracted by things that get in
the way. There are lessons to be learned, and the biggest of those is to keep going. You may have to change the
path, but always keep that vision in front of you.
56. Which of the following about the author is true
A. He donated a lot of money to improve his company’s image.
B. He often encountered difficulties in the process of growing up.
C. He started his own company together with a friend.
D. He changed jobs several times while in Los Angeles.
57. By saying “do a little spinning of my own” in the second paragraph, the author probably means he
would .
A. look for a part-time job independently B. make his contributions to the economy C. give in to the disappointing reality D. be self-employed to develop his career
58. Which quality of the author is not shown in the passage
A. Perseverance. B. Optimism. C. Innocence. D. Kindness.
59. Which one is probably the best title of the passage
A. Saying No to “Turning Back” B. Tips for a Successful Business
C. Jumping over Economic Downturns D. A Life-time Pursuit of Dream

As Christmas approached, the price of turkey went wild. It didn’t rocket, as some might suggest. Nor did it crash. It just started waving. We live in the age of the variable prices. In the eyes of sellers, the right price—the one that will draw the most profit from consumers’ wallets—has become the focus of huge experiments. These sorts of
price experiments have become a routine part of finding that right price.
It may come as a surprise that, in buying a pie, you might be participating in a carefully designed social-science experiment. But this is what online comparison shopping has brought. Simply put, the convenience to know the price of anything, anytime, anywhere, has given us, the consumers, so much power that sellers—in a desperate effort to regain the upper hand, or at least avoid extinction—are now staring back through the screen.
They are trying to “comparison shopping” us.
They have enough means to do so: the huge data tracks you leave behind whenever you place something in your online shopping cart with top data scientists capable of turning the information into useful price strategies, and what one tech economist calls “the ability to experiment on a scale that’s unimaginable in the history of
economics.”
In result, not coincidentally, normal pricing practices—an advertised discount off the “list price,” two for the
price of one, or simply “everyday low prices” are giving way to far more crazy strategies.
“In the Internet era, I don’t think anyone could have predicted how complicated these strategies have become,” says Robert Dolan, a professor at Harvard. The price of a can of soda in a vending machine can now vary with the temperature outside. The price of the headphones may depend on how budget-conscious your web history shows you to be. The price may even be affected by the price of the mobile phone you use for item search. For shoppers, that means price—not the one offered to you right now, but the one offered to you 20 minutes from now, or the one offered to me, or to your neighbor—may become an increasingly unknowable thing. “There used to be one price for
something,” Dolan notes. Now the true price of pumpkin-pie spice is subject to a level of uncertainty.
63. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage
A. When holidays come, prices are usually increased.
B. The right price to sellers is the one to bring biggest profits.
C. The right price is fixed although it’s hard to find it.
D. To buy a pie, customers have to become an expert in economy.
64. Sellers stare back through the screen in order to .
A. reflect on the effect of the Internet
B. analyze customers’ online buying history for price strategy
C. double check the existence of the purchase
D. find out online where the lowest prices are
65. In Internet age, what element is NOT likely to affect the price of an item
A. The instant mood of the buyer at the time of purchase.
B. The necessity level of the item at the time of purchase.
C. The extent to which the buyer is sensitive to the price.
D. The price of the facility the buyer uses to look for the item.
66. What is the passage mainly about
A. The advantages of online shopping over traditional shopping.
B. Measures sellers take to maximize profits.
C. The analysis of pricing mechanism.
D. The battle between buyers and sellers in Internet age.

How to support a struggling friend
We’ve all been in situations like this, both big and small and everything in between: from missing the bus to
work to struggling with the loss of a loved mon wisdom suggests that a problem shared is a problem
halved. We really want to help, yet we don’t quite have the words or the tactics.
Research shows that many people don’t really know what works best to help their friends effectively.
67 A survey of the methods that people used to manage their friends’ emotions identified 378 distinct
strategies. Given this large variety of strategies, it’s no wonder that deciding what to do when you have a friend in
tears can be a little challenging.
The good news is that there are simple strategies you can learn that will help you provide more effective
support to your friends.
Ask questions and really listen
Just as playing down a friend’s problem is unwise, so is trying to empathize too quickly. While this impulse is
understandable and quite normal, it is also likely to go wrong. 68 So how might you best address the
situation instead A recent research suggests that it would be better to slow down and start by asking directly how
your friend is feeling, rather than thinking about how you might feel in a similar situation.
A related technique to try is active listening, which is commonly used by therapists, and relatively simple to
implement. 69 For example, your friend might spend some time explaining a series of stressful events
across their week, describing arguments with their spouse, a mounting workload and some worries about debt, and
you might respond by saying that it sounds like they are overwhelmed both at home and at work right now.
Don’t take charge
If your support is too directive and take-charge, it might make your friends feel like they aren’t able to handle
things on their own, like a kid who needs their parent’s help to manage their problems.
Instead, it would have been better to ask them what they want, and how they might be able to change this
situation, and then listen to them talk through their options one by one. In doing this, you provide a sounding board for them to take control of the situation on their own. 70 This will help them organise their thoughts and
come to some solutions, without feeling like you did it for them.
A. One useful skill is to paraphrase what your friend is saying in your own words.
B. A friend who is going through hardship may benefit from a helpful gesture.
C. Part of the challenge is that there are just so many possible ways to intervene.
D. It’s important not to put too much pressure on your friend to talk.
E. Research has shown that we’re actually really bad at taking other people’sperspectives.
F. Your aim should be to facilitate the other person’s choices, rather than dominating them.
Ⅳ. Summary Writing
71.Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no
more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.

Out of Sight, Out of Mind
Technology has made paying all sorts of bills incredibly easy. The real-time budget apps, which capture our spending and pay our bills automatically, should theoretically give us more control over our money. But why, in
real life, do they do the opposite
It helps to think about how we used to pay. My parents describe a process that would involve three separate points of contact whenever they paid for something with a credit card: first, at the cash register, then when a bill came in the mail and finally when they wrote a check to cover it. While each of the checkpoints is technically still there, automation has given us a chance to skip the second and the third. For bills paid automatically through a banking app, even the first checkpoint can be gone. We know that it is happening in the background, but it’s so far out of view that it might as well not be there. How do we get that connection back, without giving up the
convenience that technology has brought us
The good news is that though technology has taken away something, it can also give. Much of the battle is simply recognizing what we’ve lost. If we want to be smart about our money and have thorough control over it, we need to bridge that gap between what we spend on and how much we pay. We can start using personal-finance apps to do more than make our lives easier. These apps can send us notifications when each automatic payment is being made and categorize purchases, sending us instant spending reports. Admittedly, those tools require the user to sign up for these services and make conscious efforts to take full advantage of them. In this way, they are arguably
better practice than balancing a checkbook on a Saturday morning.

【答案】 11. C 12. B 13. C
【原文】I’m interested in ecology and my hero is Rachel Carson. She got people to think about the way we humans
are causing permanent damage to the Earth’s ecosystems. Rachel Carson began as a biologist, who specialized in
writing about the sea, but she gradually became aware of the danger of using chemicals like DDT and the way they can harm the earth! She wrote her classic book Silent Spring in 1962 to explain this to the general public. The title of the book refers to the fact that one day all the birds might be dead so they won’t be able to sing in the springtime.
The book primarily focuses on pesticides’ effects on ecosystems, but four chapters detail their impact on humans.
She also accused the chemical industry, which continued to claim that pesticides are safe, and public officials, who accepted this disinformation uncritically. The chemical industries reacted very badly to the book and said she was unprofessional. But further research by other scientists proved that she was right. The book led to a nationwide ban
on DDT and became one of the most-influential books in the modern environmental movement. (Now listen again
please.)

【答案】 14. B 15. C 16. B
【原文】The AIDA model is a powerful tool that helps you understand how people make buying decisions, so you can tailor your marketing strategies accordingly. It outlines the four basic steps used to persuade potentials to make a purchase. The first stage is the Awareness Stage when the customer becomes aware of the product or service. The
next stage, the Interest Stage, is when the customer starts to generate interest and learn more about the product or
service. The Desire Stage is when the customer starts to want the product or service and the Action Stage is when
the customer actually buys the product or service.
AIDA is widely used in the movie industry. Movie studios begin their marketing campaigns months in
advance. The campaigns develop by offering attractive flashes of the movie without giving too much away. Desire
is inspired by the release of the full preview which is fully designed to show the exciting moments of the movie,
from special effects to humorous lines of dialogue on the opening weekend. Advertisements in newspapers and on television focus on the movie’s release, inviting the consumer to go and buy a ticket. (Now listen again please.)

Laziness and Lack of Sleep Can Shorten Your Life, Especially When Combined
You already know that smoking is bad for you and that drinking too much alcohol may shorten your life. Now a new study says that spending too much time in a chair and not having enough sleep should join a short list of
behaviors 21 (know) to increase your risk of premature death.
Sitting for a long time and lack of sleep were damaging in their own way, but when combined with more
traditional risk factors, 22 had a multiplier effect that made an early death far more likely.
The findings, published in the journal PLOS Medicine, make clear that “some risk behaviors tend to come
together and 23 the joint risk could be much higher than the sum of the individual risks” .
For instance, smoking was 24 (dangerous) single risk factor among the six studied. The small number of people for 25 smoking was their only bad habit were 90 percent more likely to die during the course of the study than people who were with practical clean living in every aspect. People who reported high alcohol consumption as their only risk factor did not seem 26 (put) their lives in danger. But for those who combined heavy drinking with smoking, the risk of premature death was doubled. And when lack of sleep 27 (add) to the mix, the likelihood of an early death was nearly five times greater 28 lack of
sleep by itself had only a light effect on death.
These numbers are based on the lives of 231,048 Australians.
29 (consider) factors such as age, gender, education and other factors, the researchers saw a clear
pattern. It was a person’s bad lifestyle 30 contributed to his or her risk of premature death.
【答案】21. known 22. they 23. that 24. the most dangerous 25. whom 26. to be putting##to

【解析】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了懒惰和缺乏睡眠会缩短你的寿命，尤其是当两者结合在一起时，
风险可能远远高于单个风险的总和。
21 考查非谓语动词。句意：现在一项新的研究表明，长时间坐在椅子上和睡眠不足会增加过早死亡的风险。 分析句子成分可知， 宾语从句的谓语动词为“should join”，所以提示词应为非谓语动词， 与空前的“a short list
of behaviors”为逻辑上的动宾关系。故填 known。
22 考查代词。句意：久坐和睡眠不足本身就有危害，但当它们与更传统的风险因素结合在一起时，会产生 乘数效应，使早死的可能性大大增加。分析句子成分可知， “but”后的分句中，主句缺少主语，结合句意应
为代词 they 指代前文提到的“Sitting for a long time”和“lack of sleep”。故填 they。
23 考查宾语从句。句意：发表在《公共科学图书馆 · 医学》(PLOS Medicine)杂志上的研究结果明确指出， “一 些风险行为往往会结合在一起， 且联合风险可能远远高于单个风险的总和”。分析句子成分可知， 动词短语 “make clear”后接了两个宾语从句，第二个宾语从句为完整的从句，不缺成分，所以选用只起连接作用的关
系词 that，且不可以省略。故填 that。
24 考查形容词最高级。句意：例如，吸烟是六项研究中最危险的单一风险因素。根据本句中“among the six”
可知，在六项单一风险因素中，吸烟是最危险的，应用形容词最高级。故填 the most dangerous。
25 考查定语从句。句意：在研究过程中， 一小部分吸烟是唯一坏习惯的人死亡的可能性比在各方面都有实
际清洁生活的人高 90%。分析句子成分可知， “for smoking was their only bad habit”应为定语从句，
修饰先行词“people”，关系词替代“people”在定语从句中充当介词“for”的宾语，应用关系代词whom。故填whom。 26 考查非谓语动词。句意：那些将大量饮酒作为唯一危险因素的人似乎并没有将自己的生命置于危险之中。 固定搭配 seem to do sth. “似乎做某事” 。因“大量饮酒”动作与“生命置于危险之中”动作先后情况不明显，所 以可以用 to do；也可以用 to be doing 表示前后动作几乎同时进行；也可用to have done 表示先后动作顺序。
故填 to be putting 或 to put 或 to have put。
27 考查代词语态。句意：如果再加上睡眠不足，早死的可能性会增加近 5 倍，尽管睡眠不足本身对死亡的
影响很小。分析句子成分可知，空处应为“when”引导的时间状语从句的谓语动词，主语为“lack of sleep”，
所以用被动语态，且用单数；照应主句谓语“was”时态，空处也应为一般过去时。故填 was added。
28 考查让步状语从句。句意：如果再加上睡眠不足，早死的可能性会增加近 5 倍，尽管睡眠不足本身对死 亡的影响很小。分析句意可知，空前句意为“ 睡眠不足，早死的可能性会增加近 5 倍” ，空后句意为“ 睡眠不 足本身对死亡的影响很小” ，前后为让步关系，应用 even if 或even though 引导让步状语从句。故填 even if
或 even though。
29 考查非谓语动词。句意：考虑到年龄、性别、教育程度等因素，研究人员发现了一个清晰的模式。分析 句子成分可知， 谓语动词为“saw”，且无连词， 所以空处应为非谓语动词， 提示词“consider”和句子主语为逻
辑上的主动关系，应用 doing，若强调非谓语的动作在谓语动作之前发生，也可用 doing 的完成式 having
done。故填 Considering 或 Having considered。
30 考查强调句。句意：正是一个人不良的生活方式导致了他或她过早死亡的风险。分析句子成分可知，本
句为强调句型 It is/was...that/who...。强调 a person’s bad lifestyle，应用 that。故填 that。

When an endangered seabird hits a power line, it makes a sound “very much like the laser sound from Star Wars,” says conservation biologist Marc Travers. He should know, as his team from the Endangered Seabird
Recovery Project 31 thousands of hours of audio to determine if power lines affected local seabirds. Travers
was trying to help establish how frequently birds are killed by power lines on the island of Kauai in Hawaii in 2011.
His team recorded 600 hours of audio and sent the recordings to Conservation Metrics, a company that assists conservation efforts with AI 32 . Conservation Metrics used a program to “listen” to the recordings and count the sounds that 33 bird electrocutions( 电 击 ). The result was 34 , as the number of bird electrocutions was in the thousands. Armed with proof that power lines were killing a significant number of birds,
the team worked with the local utility (公共事业) service to reduce bird deaths.
In science fiction stories such as The Matrix, AI-powered 35 take over the world and end life on the planet as we know it. But in reality, programs that use AI to sort through mountains of data might just save some
species from disappearing 36 .
By many measures, humans have been poor managers of the planet. Humans have 37 as much as 97 percent of land ecosystems. Key populations of monitored animals have declined as much as 68 percent since 1970. The decline in biodiversity around the world has created a hopeless situation. Conservation efforts lack key
resources they need to be 38 .
Fortunately, humans now have AI-based tools that can help. AI can quickly and 39 sort through large amounts of data created by observations in the field. Then other programs such as PAWS (Protection Assistant for
Wildlife Security) can help analyze the data and suggest the most effective ways to focus conservation efforts.
In large national parks and wildlife reserves, illegal hunters are a danger for animals both big and small. Some animals are worth a lot of money on the black market. Park rangers are left with a(n) 40 task because there is too much land to cover. But the PAWS program allows rangers to focus their efforts. PAWS has even
predicted the existence of trap lines in areas not yet checked by rangers!
We still face many challenges to change the loss of wildlife, but AI-powered programs promise to be a
powerful conservation tool.

In 2007, a group of researchers began testing a concept that seems as if it would never need testing: Is more happiness always better than less The researchers asked college students to rate their feelings on a scale from “unhappy” to “very happy” and compared the results with academic and social outcomes. Although the “very happy” participants had brilliant social lives, they performed 41 in school than those who were merely
“happy” .
The researchers then examined a data set from another study that rated college freshmen’s “cheerfulness” and 42 their income nearly two decades later. They found that the most 43 were not the highest earners. That distinction ( 荣誉) once again went to the second-highest group, which rated their cheerfulness as
“above average.”
As with everything in life, happiness has its 44 . Pursuing happiness to the exclusion of other goals-known as psychological hedonism (享乐主义)—is 45 . It gives a life where you do not reach your full potential, where you are 46 to take risks, where you choose temporary pleasures over challenging
experiences that give life meaning.
When I talk with people about their fear of negative outcomes in life, their true source of fear, in many cases,
47 how they will feel about having failed, not about the consequence of the failure itself. This is similar
to the way that discomfort with 48 causes more anxiety than guaranteed bad news. To 49 these
bad feelings, people give up kinds of opportunities that involve the possibility of failure.
However, bringing good things into your life, whether love or career success, usually involves risk. Risk does not, of course, 50 make us happy. A risky life will very likely bring disappointment, but it can bring
greater 51 than a life played safe, as the studies above suggested.
None of this is to say that we are foolish for wanting to be happy. 52 , the desire for happiness is natural and normal. Making the pursuit of positive feelings your highest or only goal, however, is a costly life strategy. Endless happiness is impossible to achieve, and doing so 53 many of the elements of a good life. As the Canadian-American psychologist Paul Bloom wrote, “It’s the 54 we choose that affords the
most opportunity for pleasure, meaning, and personal growth.”
Though pain should never be anyone’s goal, each of us can strive for a rich life in which we not only seek the
sunshine but fully 55 the rain that inevitably falls as well. This is the paradox (悖论) of being fully alive.

(2023 届上海市奉贤区高三一模英语试题)
If I have a goal in life, it isn’t to be driving a Rolls-Royce. It’s to be giving away more than $1,000,000 a year and having an impact on people’s lives. I have the success today because I always had to work for what I wanted. I
grew up accustomed to risks and disappointments, so I was used to moving forward, no matter what.
In 2008, I went to Los Angeles where I tried to get hired as an agent, an analyst and a financial broker.
Unfortunately, all these doors slammed in my face. The world’s economy was in a bad state, so I knew I would
have to do a little spinning of my own.
Youth involves a certain innocence but also perseverance. The word “can’t” wasn’t in my vocabulary. I
partnered with a friend buying distressed multifamily properties around Houston. Even though we were enthusiastic
and backed with start-up sums, I didn’t make a deal work. My friend moved on to other projects. Alone, I put all
my money into the next real-estate project. I put the time in, I dreamed it, but once again the deal fell through. Two months later, though, the deal came back around. That was when the path opened, luck changed, and I was ready to
form my own company. I haven’t looked back. Only ahead.
I’m now able to give back to communities and causes. I donate about $500,000 a year, much of that going to research to cure rare diseases. We also support a lot of services for disadvantaged children in Houston and other
places.
I have always been someone who can see the big picture and have never been distracted by things that get in
the way. There are lessons to be learned, and the biggest of those is to keep going. You may have to change the
path, but always keep that vision in front of you.

A. He donated a lot of money to improve his company’s image.
B. He often encountered difficulties in the process of growing up.

57. By saying “do a little spinning of my own” in the second paragraph, the author probably means he
would .
A. look for a part-time job independently B. make his contributions to the economy C. give in to the disappointing reality D. be self-employed to develop his career
58. Which quality of the author is not shown in the passage
A. Perseverance. B. Optimism. C. Innocence. D. Kindness.

A. Saying No to “Turning Back” B. Tips for a Successful Business

As Christmas approached, the price of turkey went wild. It didn’t rocket, as some might suggest. Nor did it crash. It just started waving. We live in the age of the variable prices. In the eyes of sellers, the right price—the one that will draw the most profit from consumers’ wallets—has become the focus of huge experiments. These sorts of
price experiments have become a routine part of finding that right price.
It may come as a surprise that, in buying a pie, you might be participating in a carefully designed
social-science experiment. But this is what online comparison shopping has brought. Simply put, the convenience to know the price of anything, anytime, anywhere, has given us, the consumers, so much power that sellers—in a desperate effort to regain the upper hand, or at least avoid extinction—are now staring back through the screen.
They are trying to “comparison shopping” us.
They have enough means to do so: the huge data tracks you leave behind whenever you place something in your online shopping cart with top data scientists capable of turning the information into useful price strategies, and what one tech economist calls “the ability to experiment on a scale that’s unimaginable in the history of
economics.”
In result, not coincidentally, normal pricing practices—an advertised discount off the “list price,” two for the
price of one, or simply “everyday low prices” are giving way to far more crazy strategies.
“In the Internet era, I don’t think anyone could have predicted how complicated these strategies have become,” says Robert Dolan, a professor at Harvard. The price of a can of soda in a vending machine can now vary with the temperature outside. The price of the headphones may depend on how budget-conscious your web history shows you to be. The price may even be affected by the price of the mobile phone you use for item search. For shoppers, that means price—not the one offered to you right now, but the one offered to you 20 minutes from now, or the one offered to me, or to your neighbor—may become an increasingly unknowable thing. “There used to be one price for
something,” Dolan notes. Now the true price of pumpkin-pie spice is subject to a level of uncertainty.
63. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage
A. When holidays come, prices are usually increased.
B. The right price to sellers is the one to bring biggest profits.
C. The right price is fixed although it’s hard to find it.
D. To buy a pie, customers have to become an expert in economy.
64. Sellers stare back through the screen in order to .
A. reflect on the effect of the Internet
B. analyze customers’ online buying history for price strategy
C. double check the existence of the purchase
D. find out online where the lowest prices are
65. In Internet age, what element is NOT likely to affect the price of an item
A. The instant mood of the buyer at the time of purchase.
B. The necessity level of the item at the time of purchase.
C. The extent to which the buyer is sensitive to the price.
D. The price of the facility the buyer uses to look for the item.
66. What is the passage mainly about
A. The advantages of online shopping over traditional shopping.
B. Measures sellers take to maximize profits.
C. The analysis of pricing mechanism.
D. The battle between buyers and sellers in Internet age.

(简单地 说，随时随地了解任何东西的价格的便利性给了我们消费者如此强大的力量，以至于为了重新占据上风或 至少避免灭绝而不顾一切的卖家现在都在屏幕上盯着我们。他们试图和我们“ 比价购物”)”可知， 商家们一直 在屏幕上盯着我们是为了和我们“ 比价购物” ，即通过分析消费者的在线购买历史以制定价格策略。故选 B。 65 细节理解题。根据最后一段“The price of a can of soda in a vending machine can now vary with the temperature outside.

(2023 届上海市徐汇区高三二模)
How to support a struggling friend
We’ve all been in situations like this, both big and small and everything in between: from missing the bus to
work to struggling with the loss of a loved mon wisdom suggests that a problem shared is a problem
halved. We really want to help, yet we don’t quite have the words or the tactics.
Research shows that many people don’t really know what works best to help their friends effectively.
67 A survey of the methods that people used to manage their friends’ emotions identified 378 distinct
strategies. Given this large variety of strategies, it’s no wonder that deciding what to do when you have a friend in
tears can be a little challenging.
The good news is that there are simple strategies you can learn that will help you provide more effective
support to your friends.
Ask questions and really listen
Just as playing down a friend’s problem is unwise, so is trying to empathize too quickly. While this impulse is
understandable and quite normal, it is also likely to go wrong. 68 So how might you best address the
situation instead A recent research suggests that it would be better to slow down and start by asking directly how
your friend is feeling, rather than thinking about how you might feel in a similar situation.
A related technique to try is active listening, which is commonly used by therapists, and relatively simple to
implement. 69 For example, your friend might spend some time explaining a series of stressful events
across their week, describing arguments with their spouse, a mounting workload and some worries about debt, and
you might respond by saying that it sounds like they are overwhelmed both at home and at work right now.
Don’t take charge
If your support is too directive and take-charge, it might make your friends feel like they aren’t able to handle
things on their own, like a kid who needs their parent’s help to manage their problems.
Instead, it would have been better to ask them what they want, and how they might be able to change this
situation, and then listen to them talk through their options one by one. In doing this, you provide a sounding board for them to take control of the situation on their own. 70 This will help them organise their thoughts and
come to some solutions, without feeling like you did it for them.
A. One useful skill is to paraphrase what your friend is saying in your own words.
B. A friend who is going through hardship may benefit from a helpful gesture.
C. Part of the challenge is that there are just so many possible ways to intervene.
D. It’s important not to put too much pressure on your friend to talk.
E. Research has shown that we’re actually really bad at taking other people’sperspectives.
F. Your aim should be to facilitate the other person’s choices, rather than dominating them.
【答案】67. C 68. E 69. A 70. F
【解析】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了一些能有效地帮助和支持面对困境的朋友的方法。
67 上文“Research shows that many people don’t really know what works best to help their friends effectively.” （研
究表明， 很多人并不知道怎样才能最有效地帮助朋友。）说明在帮助朋友方面， 许多人没有有效的方法， 结
合下文“A survey of the methods that people used to manage their friends’ emotions identified 378 distinct
strategies.”（一项关于人们用来管理朋友情绪的方法的调查发现了 378 种不同的策略。）说明策略太多，导 致人们无从下手， C 项“Part of the challenge is that there are just so many possible ways to intervene.” （部分挑战 在于有太多可能的干预方式。）构成上文“很多人并不知道怎样才能最有效地帮助朋友” 的原因， 照应下文“378
种不同的策略” ，衔接恰当。故选 C 项。
68 上文“Just as playing down a friend’s problem is unwise, so is trying to empathize too quickly. While this impulse is understandable and quite normal, it is also likely to go wrong.” （就像淡化朋友的问题是不明智的一样，试图 太快地展示同理心也是不明智的。虽然这种冲动是可以理解的， 也是很正常的， 但它也可能出错。）说明了 太快地向朋友展示自己的同情有时候会出错， 结合下文“So how might you best address the situation instead A recent research suggests that it would be better to slow down and start by asking directly how your friend is feeling, rather than thinking about how you might feel in a similar situation.” （那么，你如何才能最好地应对这种情况呢 最近的一项研究表明最好放慢速度， 直接询问你的朋友的感受， 而不是考虑你在类似情况下的感受。）直接
用研究结果展示了解决上文问题的办法， E 项“Research has shown that we’re actually really bad at taking other
people’s perspectives.” （研究表明我们真的不擅长从别人的角度看问题。）总结上文内容， 从而引出下文的解
决办法，衔接恰当。故选 E 项。
69 下文“For example, your friend might spend some time explaining a series of stressful events across their week, describing arguments with their spouse, a mounting workload and some worries about debt, and you might respond by saying that it sounds like they are overwhelmed both at home and at work right now.” （例如， 你的朋友可能会 花一些时间向你解释他们一周中发生的一系列压力事件，描述他们与配偶的争吵，不断增加的工作量和对 债务的担忧， 你可能会回答说， 听起来他们现在在家庭和工作上都不堪重负。）举例说明了当朋友向你抱怨 时， 你可以用自己的话来解释朋友说的内容。A 项“One useful skill is to paraphrase what your friend is saying in your own words”（一个有用的技巧是用你自己的话来解释你的朋友所说的话。） 与下文举例内容一致。故选
A 项。
70 上文“Instead, it would have been better to ask them what they want, and how they might be able to change this situation, and then listen to them talk through their options one by one. In doing this, you provide a sounding board for them to take control of the situation on their own.” （相反， 最好是问他们想要什么， 以及他们可能如何改变 这种情况，然后听他们逐一讨论他们的选择。在这样做的过程中，你扮演的是一个参谋的角色，要让他们 自己控制局面。）说明在帮助朋友过程中要以朋友为主导， 帮助他们获得自己想要的结果。FYour aim should be to facilitate the other person’s choices, rather than dominating them.” （你的目标应该是促进他人的选择， 而不
是支配他们。）总结上文句意，衔接恰当。故选 F 项。

Out of Sight, Out of Mind
Technology has made paying all sorts of bills incredibly easy. The real-time budget apps, which capture our spending and pay our bills automatically, should theoretically give us more control over our money. But why, in
real life, do they do the opposite
It helps to think about how we used to pay. My parents describe a process that would involve three separate points of contact whenever they paid for something with a credit card: first, at the cash register, then when a bill came in the mail and finally when they wrote a check to cover it. While each of the checkpoints is technically still
there, automation has given us a chance to skip the second and the third. For bills paid automatically through a
banking app, even the first checkpoint can be gone. We know that it is happening in the background, but it’s so far out of view that it might as well not be there. How do we get that connection back, without giving up the
convenience that technology has brought us
The good news is that though technology has taken away something, it can also give. Much of the battle is simply recognizing what we’ve lost. If we want to be smart about our money and have thorough control over it, we need to bridge that gap between what we spend on and how much we pay. We can start using personal-finance apps to do more than make our lives easier. These apps can send us notifications when each automatic payment is being made and categorize purchases, sending us instant spending reports. Admittedly, those tools require the user to sign up for these services and make conscious efforts to take full advantage of them. In this way, they are arguably
better practice than balancing a checkbook on a Saturday morning.
【答案】Technology simplifies the process of paying but robs us of the control over money. We lose track of the connection between the purchases and the money spent because the process is not completely presented. To regain
the control, we can turn to personal-finance apps consciously to get instantly notified. (49 words)
【解析】这是一篇说明文。技术简化了支付过程，但剥夺了我们对金钱的控制。我们失去了购买和花费之 间的联系，因为这个过程没有完整地呈现出来。为了重新获得控制权，我们可以有意识地使用个人理财应
用程序，以获得即时通知。

①Technology has made paying all sorts of bills incredibly easy. The real-time budget apps, which capture our

72. 项目化学习旨在培养学生解决实际问题的能力。 (mean) (汉译英)
【答案】The project-based learning is meant to develop students’ ability to solve practical problems.
【解析】考查固定短语， 时态和主谓一致。“项目化学习”是 the project-based learning，“ 旨在做某事”是 be meant to do ，“培养学生解决实际问题的能力”翻译为 develop students’ ability to solve practical problems，句子描述 客观事实，时态用一般现在时，主语 the project-based learning 是不可数名词，其后 be 动词用 is，因此整句 话翻译为“The project-based learning is meant to develop students’ ability to solve practical problems”。故答案为
The project-based learning is meant to develop students’ ability to solve practical problems.
73. 有被讨厌的勇气是活得淋漓尽致的第一步。 (courage) (汉译英)
【答案】Having the courage to be disliked is the first step toward living life to the fullest.
【解析】考查非谓语动词和固定短语。分析句子， 句子表述客观事实， 故使用一般现在时。表示“有勇气去 做某事”用 have the courage to do sth，此处使用动名词作主语，表示“被讨厌”用不定式的被动结构，即 to be
disliked；表示“是第一步去做某事”用 be the first step toward doing；表示“对于活得淋漓尽致”用 is the first step
toward living to the fullest。故翻译为：Having the courage to be disliked is the first step toward living life to the

75. 在古代，二十四节气（the 24 solar terms）指导农民预测冷暖，春种秋收，如今其魅力依然如故。
(as...as ) (汉译英)
【答案】The 24 solar terms in ancient times instructed farmers to expect changes in temperature, spring planting
and autumn harvest and today they are as charming as they were in the past.
The 24 solar terms in ancient times instructed farmers to expect when the days were getting colder or warmer, guiding farmers to sow seeds in spring and harvest crops in autumn, and today they are as charming as they were in
the past.
【解析】考查时态， 宾语从句，状语从句和现在分词。 “ 在古代” 是 in ancient times ，“ 二十四节气” 是 the 24 solar terms，“指导农民预测冷暖， 春种秋收”时态用一般过去时， “指导某人做某事”是 instruct sb. to do sth., “ 农 民 ” 是 farmers ， “ 预 测 冷 暖 ” 是 expect changes in temperature ， “ 春 种 秋 收 ” 是 spring planting and autumn harvest，“如今”是 today，“如今其魅力依然如故”句子时态用一般现在时， “其魅力 依 然 如 故 ” 可 理 解 为 “ 和 以 前 一 样 有 魅 力 ” ， “ 有 魅 力 的 ” 是 charming ， “ 和 以 前 一 样 有 魅 力 ” 是 as charming as they were in the past ， 是 as 引 导 比 较 状 语 从 句 。 因 此 整 句 话 翻 译 为 “The 24 solar terms in ancient times instructed farmers to expect changes in temperature, spring planting and autum
n harvest and today they are as charming as they were in the past”。另外“指导农民预测冷暖，春种秋收”也可理
解为“指导农民预测天气什么时候更冷，什么时候更热，指导农民在春天播种，秋天收获庄稼” ，“指导农民 预测” 时态用一般过去时，是 instructed farmers to expect ，“天气什么时候更冷，什么时候更热”用 when 引导 的 宾语从句 ，作 expect 的 宾语 ， “ 天气什么 时候更冷 ，什么 时候更热 ” 用过去进行 时表将来 ，是 the days were getting colder or warmer；“指导农民在春天播种， 秋天收获庄稼” 中的“指导”可换用 guide，其后 跟 sb. to do sth. ，“在春天播种，秋天收获庄稼” 是 sow seeds in spring and harvest crops in autumn ，instructed 作谓语， guide 要用非谓语动词， The 24 solar terms 和 guide 之间是主谓关系， 因此用现在分词 guiding 表主
动作状语，因此这个句子的第二种翻译是
“The 24 solar terms in ancient times instructed farmers to expect when the days were getting colder or warmer, gui ding farmers to sow seeds in spring and harvest crops in autumn, and today they are as charming as they were in the
past.”。
故答案为
The 24 solar terms in ancient times instructed farmers to expect changes in temperature, spring planting and autumn harvest and today they are as charming as they were in the past./The 24 solar terms in ancient times instructed farm ers to expect when the days were getting colder or warmer, guiding farmers to sow seeds in spring and harvest crop
s in autumn, and today they are as charming as they were in the past.
