Sweat slips down my cheek as I glide (滑动) my fingers through the cool water. I’ve reached the turnaround point of the day’s kayaking (皮划艇) trip. I attempt a shoulder stretch and look around. It’s just me, a couple of seabirds, and shining freshwater to the horizon. This, I whisper to myself, is awesome.
Solo (独自的) outings had never crossed my mind before because I always had a friend with me. But three years ago, I moved to Cleveland. Meeting friends in a new city was tough.
In October 2020, I decided to take adventure on a solo hiking trip. I went to Cuyahoga Valley National Park (CVNP) to admire the autumn leaves. Four miles in, I couldn’t remember the last time I’d felt so alive. I was more aware of my surroundings than I’d ever been while hiking that day. I studied the markings of trees, focused my ears on each forest sound and did something I almost never made time for: I listened to my own thoughts. Every word bubble in my mind pointed to a newfound truth-solo hiking is my happy place.
When spring arrived, I decided to check off another solo sport: kayaking. My chest, initially tightened by nerves, was bursting with happiness when I finally reached the middle of the river that I’d long admired back on shore.
Since that first solo hiking, adventuring alone has become like medicine for me. It has also pushed me to go beyond my comfort zone and to meet new people. Through meetups and social media, my adventure-friend circle has ballooned. But at least once per month, I schedule time to hit nature with my favorite friend: me.
4. What pushed the author to start going on solo outings
A. A longing for a peaceful life.
B. A desire to challenge herself.
C. Living close to a national park.
D. Difficulty in finding companions.
5. What did the author do during her first solo hiking trip in CVNP
A. She explored a new route for hiking.
B. She paid attention to her inner voice.
C. She collected a variety of autumn leaves.
D. She recorded the forest sounds on her phone.
6. How did the author feel after her first kayaking trip
A. Surprised. B. Delighted. C. Nervous. D. Lonely.
7. What does the underlined word “ballooned” in the last paragraph mean
A. restarted B. transformed C. disappeared D. expanded
C
July 2023 was the world’s warmest month on record, according to the World Meteorological Organization. UN Secretary—General Antonio Guterres said in a speech that the planet is entering an “era of global boiling”. How to cool the planet has long been a troubling question for scientists. They are now turning to sun-blocking technology, which refers to reflecting sunlight back into space in order to keep down the temperature of the planet’s climate.
According to Euronews, a European television news network, one idea involves pumping sun-blocking particles (粒子) into the upper atmosphere. The particles will then stay in the air and redirect sunshine back upwards. It is like applying sunscreen on the outside of Earth. Researchers at Yale University, US, outlined a plan to use 125 high-flying planes to spread the particles at latitudes (纬度) of 60 degrees north and south. The particles will then travel toward the poles, which could possibly cool the temperature there by 2℃.
Another very promising technique is called “cloud brightening”, according to Chris Sacca, a US climate expert. This method involves sending sea salt particles into clouds above the sea, making them whiter and thus they reflect more sunlight back into space.
In June, the US government announced in a report that it was offering support for solar engineering research as a way to slow the rise of global temperatures. According to the report, the US government believes that the technology “offers the possibility of cooling the planet significantly in a few years”.
However, following the report, an open letter by more than 60 scientists called for caution and more research first. Kristen Rasmussen, a climate scientist at Colorado State University, US, has been studying how these sun-blocking methods will affect rainfall patterns. She said that apart from rainfall, ecosystems and even human communities would also be affected. “We need to be very cautious on this,” Rasmussen told Scientific American.
8. What do we know about sun-blocking particles
A. They can catch and take in sunlight. B. They function as a protective cover for Earth.
C. They can release cool air into the atmosphere. D. They are most effective when used at the poles.
9. What is the US government’s attitude toward sun-blocking technology
A. Favorable. B. Pessimistic. C. Objective. D. Dismissive.
10. What is Kristen Rasmussen’s main concern regarding sun-blocking methods
A. Their potential impact on human health. B. Their practicability in actual application.
C. Their high cost and limited effectiveness. D. Their far-reaching negative consequences.
11. Which is the most suitable title for the text
A. Cooling Our Planet B. Era of Global Boiling
C. Pumping Blocking Particles D. The Technique of Cloud Brightening
D
If you’re studying English or another foreign language, you might be wondering. “How is this going to help me in my life ” As it turns out, studying and thinking in a foreign language has its own benefits!
In a 2012 study Boaz Keysar, a professor at the University of Chicago in the US, led an experiment concerning the relationship between foreign languages and people’s way of thinking. In the experiment, people were asked to make a choice: Take a guarantee of one pound or take a 50 percent chance of winning 2.50 pounds. When presented with this choice in their native language, most people took the safe option of only getting one pound. But they were more willing to make the riskier choice when asked in a foreign language, leading to more profits overall.
In another study published this year, Keysar and his team did an experiment in which participants were given a series of related words like “dream”, “snooze (打盹)”, “bed” and “rest”. Later, when asked which words they remembered hearing, people were more likely to mistakenly remember “sleep”, which was not on the list, in their native language. But it was much less likely to happen if they did the test in a foreign language. As Keysar explained, people have more careful thinking when using a foreign language, leading to memories with greater accuracy.
The foreign language effect may even stretch to our personality. Silvia Purpuri at the University of Trento, Italy, looked at people’s willingness to face uncertainty and enter unfamiliar situations. Being tolerant of uncertainty allows people to have more creative ideas and be more open to new things. It turns out that people naturally score more highly on this trait (特点) when they can speak or use a foreign language because speaking a foreign language requires taking risks. The evidence is clear: By learning a foreign language, you’re not just learning a language-you’re gaining a new state of mind.
12. In Keysar’s experiment, when making decisions in a foreign language, people tend to be ______.
A decisive B. hopeful C. daring D. careful
13. How does using a foreign language affect memory according to Keysar
A. It improves memory accuracy.
B. It increases memory recall speed.
C. It strengthens long-term memory.
D. It requires repeated memorization.
14. What is a potential benefit of being open to uncertainty
A. Increased creativity. B. Greater tolerance.
C. Better learning ability. D. Boosted adventurous spirit.
15. What does the text mainly talk about
A. Challenges of learning a foreign language.
B. Advantages of learning a foreign language.
C. How foreign language learning influences memory.
D. How foreign language learning determines one’s future.

First as a wife, then as a mother, and later as a grandmother, for as long as Teressa could remember, she had always lived for others and never for herself. Being selfless is not everyone’s cup of tea, but for Teressa, that’s how she had spent all her life.
When Teressa was a little girl, she had big dreams. She spent hours in her room reading famous authors’ poetry. “I want to be a poet, Mommy! And I want to recite my poems on stage!” she said to her mother, who would smile back and assure her that her dreams would come true one day. But unfortunately, that did not happen.
Teressa’s poems were locked in her closet (壁橱) as life kept throwing new responsibilities at her. After her dad died, she had to look after her mother. Then after getting married came kids, and then the kids’ kids. And somewhere, Teressa’s talent, poems, and dream of performing on stage were left far behind.
One Sunday afternoon, her children and grandchildren were visiting her, and she had spent five hours preparing a big meal for them!
As the doorbell rang, Teressa opened her door. She smiled and hugged everyone as they entered. Brian was the youngest in the family. He loved Grandma Teressa. After enjoying dessert after lunch that day, Brian sat with Teressa looking at one of their family albums. “Can you bring me the album from my closet, honey ” Teressa asked. While searching for the album, Brian discovered a pile of papers behind her clothes.
“Granny!” he came running to her. “Are these yours Do you write poems ” he asked. “Oh,” Teressa hid the papers nervously in the album. “Well, sometimes, honey. I wanted to read them on stage one day, but I never had the opportunity. Anyway, forget about that. Let’s go through the pictures.”
But Brian didn’t forget about his grandma’s poems. One week later, he visited her with an envelope, and as Teressa read the letter inside, her eyes were filled with tears.

Sweat slips down my cheek as I glide (滑动) my fingers through the cool water. I’ve reached the turnaround point of the day’s kayaking (皮划艇) trip. I attempt a shoulder stretch and look around. It’s just me, a couple of seabirds, and shining freshwater to the horizon. This, I whisper to myself, is awesome.
Solo (独自的) outings had never crossed my mind before because I always had a friend with me. But three years ago, I moved to Cleveland. Meeting friends in a new city was tough.
In October 2020, I decided to take adventure on a solo hiking trip. I went to Cuyahoga Valley National Park (CVNP) to admire the autumn leaves. Four miles in, I couldn’t remember the last time I’d felt so alive. I was more aware of my surroundings than I’d ever been while hiking that day. I studied the markings of trees, focused my ears on each forest sound and did something I almost never made time for: I listened to my own thoughts. Every word bubble in my mind pointed to a newfound truth-solo hiking is my happy place.
When spring arrived, I decided to check off another solo sport: kayaking. My chest, initially tightened by nerves, was bursting with happiness when I finally reached the middle of the river that I’d long admired back on shore.
Since that first solo hiking, adventuring alone has become like medicine for me. It has also pushed me to go beyond my comfort zone and to meet new people. Through meetups and social media, my adventure-friend circle has ballooned. But at least once per month, I schedule time to hit nature with my favorite friend: me.
4. What pushed the author to start going on solo outings
A. A longing for a peaceful life.
B. A desire to challenge herself.
C. Living close to a national park.

B. She paid attention to her inner voice.
C. She collected a variety of autumn leaves.
D. She recorded the forest sounds on her phone.
6. How did the author feel after her first kayaking trip
A. Surprised. B. Delighted. C. Nervous. D. Lonely.
7. What does the underlined word “ballooned” in the last paragraph mean
A. restarted B. transformed C. disappeared D. expanded
【答案】4. D 5. B 6. B 7. D
【解析】

July 2023 was the world’s warmest month on record according to the World Meteorological Organization. UN Secretary—General Antonio Guterres said in a speech that the planet is entering an “era of global boiling”. How to cool the planet has long been a troubling question for scientists. They are now turning to sun-blocking technology, which refers to reflecting sunlight back into space in order to keep down the temperature of the planet’s climate.
According to Euronews, a European television news network, one idea involves pumping sun-blocking particles (粒子) into the upper atmosphere. The particles will then stay in the air and redirect sunshine back upwards. It is like applying sunscreen on the outside of Earth. Researchers at Yale University, US, outlined a plan to use 125 high-flying planes to spread the particles at latitudes (纬度) of 60 degrees north and south. The particles will then travel toward the poles, which could possibly cool the temperature there by 2℃.
Another very promising technique is called “cloud brightening”, according to Chris Sacca, a US climate expert. This method involves sending sea salt particles into clouds above the sea, making them whiter and thus they reflect more sunlight back into space.
In June, the US government announced in a report that it was offering support for solar engineering research as a way to slow the rise of global temperatures. According to the report, the US government believes that the technology “offers the possibility of cooling the planet significantly in a few years”.
However, following the report, an open letter by more than 60 scientists called for caution and more research first. Kristen Rasmussen, a climate scientist at Colorado State University, US, has been studying how these sun-blocking methods will affect rainfall patterns. She said that apart from rainfall, ecosystems and even human communities would also be affected. “We need to be very cautious on this,” Rasmussen told Scientific American.
8. What do we know about sun-blocking particles
A. They can catch and take in sunlight. B. They function as a protective cover for Earth.
C. They can release cool air into the atmosphere. D. They are most effective when used at the poles.
9. What is the US government’s attitude toward sun-blocking technology
A. Favorable. B. Pessimistic. C. Objective. D. Dismissive.
10. What is Kristen Rasmussen’s main concern regarding sun-blocking methods
A. Their potential impact on human health. B. Their practicability in actual application.
C. Their high cost and limited effectiveness. D. Their far-reaching negative consequences.
11. Which is the most suitable title for the text
A. Cooling Our Planet B. Era of Global Boiling
C. Pumping Blocking Particles D. The Technique of Cloud Brightening
【答案】8. B 9. A 10. D 11. A
【解析】
【导语】本为是说明文。文章主要介绍了应对全球变暖的方法——使用遮阳技术，即将太阳光反射回太空以降低地球气候的温度。
【8题详解】

If you’re studying English or another foreign language, you might be wondering. “How is this going to help me in my life ” As it turns out, studying and thinking in a foreign language has its own benefits!
In a 2012 study, Boaz Keysar, a professor at the University of Chicago in the US, led an experiment concerning the relationship between foreign languages and people’s way of thinking. In the experiment, people were asked to make a choice: Take a guarantee of one pound or take a 50 percent chance of winning 2.50 pounds. When presented with this choice in their native language, most people took the safe option of only getting one pound. But they were more willing to make the riskier choice when asked in a foreign language, leading to more profits overall.
In another study published this year, Keysar and his team did an experiment in which participants were given a series of related words like “dream”, “snooze (打盹)”, “bed” and “rest”. Later, when asked which words they remembered hearing, people were more likely to mistakenly remember “sleep”, which was not on the list, in their native language. But it was much less likely to happen if they did the test in a foreign language. As Keysar explained, people have more careful thinking when using a foreign language, leading to memories with greater accuracy.
The foreign language effect may even stretch to our personality. Silvia Purpuri at the University of Trento, Italy, looked at people’s willingness to face uncertainty and enter unfamiliar situations. Being tolerant of uncertainty allows people to have more creative ideas and be more open to new things. It turns out that people naturally score more highly on this trait (特点) when they can speak or use a foreign language because speaking a foreign language requires taking risks. The evidence is clear: By learning a foreign language, you’re not just learning a language-you’re gaining a new state of mind.
12. In Keysar’s experiment, when making decisions in a foreign language, people tend to be ______.
A. decisive B. hopeful C. daring D. careful
13. How does using a foreign language affect memory according to Keysar
A. It improves memory accuracy.
B. It increases memory recall speed.
C. It strengthens long-term memory.
D. It requires repeated memorization.
14. What is a potential benefit of being open to uncertainty
A. Increased creativity. B. Greater tolerance.
C. Better learning ability. D. Boosted adventurous spirit.
15. What does the text mainly talk about
A. Challenges of learning a foreign language.
B. Advantages of learning a foreign language.
C. How foreign language learning influences memory.
D. How foreign language learning determines one’s future.
【答案】12. C 13. A 14. A 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文，实验研究表明外语学习对于人们有多种好处。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。由第二段中“In the experiment, people were asked to make a choice: Take a guarantee of one pound or take a 50 percent chance of winning 2.50 pounds. When presented with this choice in their native language, most people took the safe option of only getting one pound. But they were more willing to make the riskier choice when asked in a foreign language, leading to more profits overall. (在实验中，人们被要求做出一个选择：保证一磅，或者有50%的机会赢得2.50磅。当用母语给出这个选择时，大多数人都选择了只得到一磅的安全选择。但当被问及用外语做选择时，他们更愿意做出风险更大的选择，从而获得更多的整体利润)”可知，在Keysar的实验中，当用外语做决定时，人们更愿意做出风险更大的选择，即人们倾向于更大胆（daring）。故选C项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。由第三段中“As Keysar explained, people have more careful thinking when using a foreign language, leading to memories with greater accuracy. (正如Keysar所解释的，人们在使用外语时会有更仔细的思考，从而产生更准确的记忆)”可知，根据Keysar的研究，使用外语能提高记忆的准确性。故选A项。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。由第四段中“Being tolerant of uncertainty allows people to have more creative ideas and be more open to new things. (容忍不确定性可以让人们有更多的创造性想法，对新事物更开放)”可知，对不确定性持开放态度的潜在好处是它能增加创造力。故选A项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。由第一段“If you’re studying English or another foreign language, you might be wondering. “How is this going to help me in my life ” As it turns out, studying and thinking in a foreign language has its own benefits! (如果你正在学习英语或其他外语，你可能会想知道。“这对我的生活有什么帮助？”事实证明，用外语学习和思考有其自身的好处！)”和研究结果可知，文章主要介绍了学习外语的好处。故选B项。

First as a wife, then as a mother, and later as a grandmother, for as long as Teressa could remember, she had always lived for others and never for herself. Being selfless is not everyone’s cup of tea, but for Teressa, that’s how she had spent all her life.
When Teressa was a little girl, she had big dreams. She spent hours in her room reading famous authors’ poetry. “I want to be a poet, Mommy! And I want to recite my poems on stage!” she said to her mother, who would smile back and assure her that her dreams would come true one day. But unfortunately, that did not happen.
Teressa’s poems were locked in her closet (壁橱) as life kept throwing new responsibilities at her. After her dad died, she had to look after her mother. Then after getting married came kids, and then the kids’ kids. And somewhere, Teressa’s talent, poems, and dream of performing on stage were left far behind.
One Sunday afternoon, her children and grandchildren were visiting her, and she had spent five hours preparing a big meal for them!
As the doorbell rang, Teressa opened her door. She smiled and hugged everyone as they entered. Brian was the youngest in the family. He loved Grandma Teressa. After enjoying dessert after lunch that day, Brian sat with Teressa looking at one of their family albums. “Can you bring me the album from my closet, honey ” Teressa asked. While searching for the album, Brian discovered a pile of papers behind her clothes.
“Granny!” he came running to her. “Are these yours Do you write poems ” he asked. “Oh” Teressa hid the papers nervously in the album. “Well, sometimes, honey. I wanted to read them on stage one day, but I never had the opportunity. Anyway, forget about that. Let’s go through the pictures.”

【答案】Brian had signed Teressa up for a talent show. Teressa didn’t want to take part in it. With Brian’s continuous encouragement, Teressa had to agree in the end. On the day of the talent show, Teressa began reciting her poems on the stage. She was nervous, and her hands trembled. As Teressa finished her poem, everyone in the hall gave her a standing ovation, and Teressa found it hard to believe that her writings were appreciated. Soon after, a journalist interviewed Teressa, saying that he wanted to write an article about her and encouraged Teressa to get her writings published.
After the interview, Teressa was offered an opportunity to write for the local newspaper. Her poems were soon favorites among the locals. Teressa was astonished, and she couldn’t believe her dreams were coming true at the age of 81. But the best part of it all was her family, who encouraged her. Like her, many daughters, wives, mothers, and grandmothers have left their dreams behind for their family’s sake. But remember, there’s no defined age to fulfill your dreams. You can start today. Teressa is a brilliant example of that.
