四、阅读理解（20小题，每小题2分，共40分）
阅读下面四篇语言材料，然后按文后要求做题。
A
A life filled with meaning is what most of us want for ourselves. Then, what makes a meaningful life Many researchers agree that a meaningful life comes down to three factors (因素): having long-term goals, believing that one’s life matters, and feeling that one’s life fits together and “makes sense”.
But we believe there is more to consider. Sometimes life enables us to experience small moments of beauty. When people are open to appreciating (欣赏) such experiences, these moments may improve how they see their own life. We call this experiential appreciation (EA). EA is about the person’s feeling connected to events and being able to appreciate the value within (在……内) that connection. It shows the discovery of and admiration for life’s beauty.
We recently set out to better understand EA in studies. We were interested in whether EA was also tied to general judgment (判断) of meaning in life. If so, it could be a factor for meaningfulness.
In the first study, we had people rate (评估) their support for different methods of reducing stress. We found that people who managed stress by focusing on (专注于) their appreciation for life’s beauty also reported experiencing life as highly meaningful.
In the next study, we asked people to rate the degree to which they agreed with different kinds of statements, such as “I appreciate the beauty of life” and “I appreciate little things in life,” as well as other statements that related to the three factors and a general sense of meaning in life. Our results showed that the more people reported that they were “appreciating life” and its many experiences, the more they felt their life was valuable.
In the following studies, we further looked at the connection between EA and meaningfulness. For example, we found that people who were asked to look back on the most meaningful event of the past week generally reported high EA in those moments.
All the results proved our theory (假设) true. But putting it into practice can be difficult. Our fast-paced lifestyles fill the day with goals. We try to get the highest output both at work and in spare time. This focus on future results makes it all too easy to miss what is happening right now. We should slow down and let life surprise us.
46．What does the underlined word “it” refer to (所指) in paragraph 2
A．EA． B．The stress. C．The value. D．Life’s beauty.
47．Which of the following show that you were in the EA condition
A．You were busy making a travel plan.
B．You stopped to admire the roses by the roadside.
C．You practiced hard to become the best violinist.
D．You hurried to serve the customers in the store.
48．What can we learn from the studies in the text
A．Thinking back to the past weakens (减弱) our sense of meaning.
B．Having proper stress is the key to living a satisfying life.
C．Enjoying little things can influence our attitude (态度) toward life.
D．Good judgment on beauty improves connections among people.
49．What does the last paragraph mainly tell us
A．Results-driven people can achieve success easily.
B．We often turn a blind eye to the present moment.
C．A fast-paced lifestyle helps us reach our goals.
D．Future life will bring us many more surprises.
50．Why does the writer write this text
A．To introduce a new factor for a meaningful life.
B．To explain how to discover beauty in life.
C．To discuss why we need a meaningful life.
D．To compare different factors for meaningfulness.
B

Over 50 years ago, there was a really interesting experiment (实验) with kids, aged between three and six years old. Scientists were curious (好奇的) about something called “self-control.” That’s like when you really want to do something, but you decide to wait.
In the experiment, each kid sat at a table and a scientist put a delicious marshmallow (棉花糖) in front of them. The kids had a choice to make. They could eat the marshmallow right then, or if they waited for 15 minutes without eating it, they would get a second marshmallow when the scientist came back. It was a difficult choice!
Some kids decided to eat the marshmallow right away because it looked so tasty. But others waited, thinking about getting two marshmallows instead of just one. They tried different things to distract themselves, like singing songs or playing games in their minds.
Many years later, the scientists checked on these kids, who were all grown up by then. They noticed something really interesting. The kids who waited for the second marshmallow were more likely to have done well in school and in their jobs. This little test seemed to show that being patient and controlling yourself can help you succeed in different parts of life.
So, if you were in that test, what would you do Would you eat the marshmallow right away, or would you try to wait for two It’s a fun thing to think about! Remember, sometimes waiting a bit can bring you even better things.

I was a member of a group preparing for a week of meetings. Once I 66 into the meeting room where some volunteers were busy placing the tables and chairs. I asked 67 I could help. One of the girls politely said, “Oh, no, thank you” and offered me a chair to sit.
Then, another volunteer came into the room. He saw me 68 there doing nothing and said, “Hey, Larry, come here. There’s work to do, and you can help.” Then he asked me to take the 69 out of the paper boxes and place them on the tables.
“Fine I can do it.” I said 70 . And I was now part of the team.
This member of the group saw that my disability（残疾） didn’t mean an inability（无能） to help. Later, I thanked him for having included me. He said, “I thought we would finish 71 with one more pair of hands. I was just using common sense.”
I’m sure that the girl who refused my offer of help doesn’t mean to offend（冒犯） me. Too often, most people think the disabled should 72 care of and be protected. They don’t notice their abilities. In fact, the disabled can also be 73 .
It’s important for all of us 74 that we are accepted, appreciated and valued as a normal member of the group. Such feeling is of great 75 to people with disabilities. It sends a message that states: “To us, your abilities are more important than your disability.”

四、阅读理解（20小题，每小题2分，共40分）
阅读下面四篇语言材料，然后按文后要求做题。
A
A life filled with meaning is what most of us want for ourselves. Then, what makes a meaningful life Many researchers agree that a meaningful life comes down to three factors (因素): having long-term goals, believing that one’s life matters, and feeling that one’s life fits together and “makes sense”.
But we believe there is more to consider. Sometimes life enables us to experience small moments of beauty. When people are open to appreciating (欣赏) such experiences, these moments may improve how they see their own life. We call this experiential appreciation (EA). EA is about the person’s feeling connected to events and being able to appreciate the value within (在……内) that connection. It shows the discovery of and admiration for life’s beauty.
We recently set out to better understand EA in studies. We were interested in whether EA was also tied to general judgment (判断) of meaning in life. If so, it could be a factor for meaningfulness.
In the first study, we had people rate (评估) their support for different methods of reducing stress. We found that people who managed stress by focusing on (专注于) their appreciation for life’s beauty also reported experiencing life as highly meaningful.
In the next study, we asked people to rate the degree to which they agreed with different kinds of statements, such as “I appreciate the beauty of life” and “I appreciate little things in life,” as well as other statements that related to the three factors and a general sense of meaning in life. Our results showed that the more people reported that they were “appreciating life” and its many experiences, the more they felt their life was valuable.
In the following studies, we further looked at the connection between EA and meaningfulness. For example, we found that people who were asked to look back on the most meaningful event of the past week generally reported high EA in those moments.
All the results proved our theory (假设) true. But putting it into practice can be difficult. Our fast-paced lifestyles fill the day with goals. We try to get the highest output both at work and in spare time. This focus on future results makes it all too easy to miss what is happening right now. We should slow down and let life surprise us.
46．What does the underlined word “it” refer to (所指) in paragraph 2
A．EA． B．The stress. C．The value. D．Life’s beauty.
47．Which of the following show that you were in the EA condition
A．You were busy making a travel plan.
B．You stopped to admire the roses by the roadside.
C．You practiced hard to become the best violinist.
D．You hurried to serve the customers in the store.
48．What can we learn from the studies in the text
A．Thinking back to the past weakens (减弱) our sense of meaning.
B．Having proper stress is the key to living a satisfying life.
C．Enjoying little things can influence our attitude (态度) toward life.
D．Good judgment on beauty improves connections among people.
49．What does the last paragraph mainly tell us
A．Results-driven people can achieve success easily.
B．We often turn a blind eye to the present moment.
C．A fast-paced lifestyle helps us reach our goals.
D．Future life will bring us many more surprises.
50．Why does the writer write this text
A．To introduce a new factor for a meaningful life.
B．To explain how to discover beauty in life.
C．To discuss why we need a meaningful life.
D．To compare different factors for meaningfulness.
【答案】46．A 47．B 48．C 49．B 50．A
【导语】本文主要介绍了一种新的影响生活意义的因素，即“发现和欣赏生活中的美”。
46．词句猜测题。根据“ EA is about the person’s feeling connected to events and being able to appreciate the value within (在……内) that connection. It shows the discovery of and admiration for life’s beauty.”可知体验式欣赏是关于一个人与事件的联系，以及能够欣赏这种联系中的价值，它展示了对生命之美的发现和钦佩，故此处it指代“体验式欣赏”。故选A。
47．推理判断题。根据“When people are open to appreciating (欣赏) such experiences, these moments may improve how they see their own life. We call this experiential appreciation”可知当人们对欣赏这些经历持开放态度时，这些时刻可能会改善他们看待自己生活的方式，我们称之为体验式欣赏，选项B“你停下来欣赏路边的玫瑰”符合，故选B。
48．推理判断题。根据“Sometimes life enables us to experience small moments of beauty. When people are open to appreciating (欣赏) such experiences, these moments may improve how they see their own life.”可知，生活让我们体验到美丽的小瞬间，当人们乐于欣赏这样的经历时，这些时刻可能会改善他们对自己生活的看法。故选C。
49．主旨大意题。根据“This focus on future results makes it all too easy to miss what is happening right now. We should slow down and let life surprise us.”可知最后一段主要告诉我们，这种对未来结果的关注很容易让人忽略当下正在发生的事情。故选B。
50．主旨大意题。本文主要介绍了一种新的影响生活意义的因素，即“发现和欣赏生活中的美”，故选A。

Over 50 years ago, there was a really interesting experiment (实验) with kids, aged between three and six years old. Scientists were curious (好奇的) about something called “self-control.” That’s like when you really want to do something, but you decide to wait.
In the experiment, each kid sat at a table and a scientist put a delicious marshmallow (棉花糖) in front of them. The kids had a choice to make. They could eat the marshmallow right then, or if they waited for 15 minutes without eating it, they would get a second marshmallow when the scientist came back. It was a difficult choice!
Some kids decided to eat the marshmallow right away because it looked so tasty. But others waited, thinking about getting two marshmallows instead of just one. They tried different things to distract themselves, like singing songs or playing games in their minds.
Many years later, the scientists checked on these kids, who were all grown up by then. They noticed something really interesting. The kids who waited for the second marshmallow were more likely to have done well in school and in their jobs. This little test seemed to show that being patient and controlling yourself can help you succeed in different parts of life.
So, if you were in that test, what would you do Would you eat the marshmallow right away, or would you try to wait for two It’s a fun thing to think about! Remember, sometimes waiting a bit can bring you even better things.

Then, another volunteer came into the room. He saw me 68 there doing nothing and said, “Hey, Larry, come here. There’s work to do, and you can help.” Then he asked me to take the 69 out of the paper boxes and place them on the tables.
“Fine I can do it.” I said 70 . And I was now part of the team.
This member of the group saw that my disability（残疾） didn’t mean an inability（无能） to help. Later, I thanked him for having included me. He said, “I thought we would finish 71 with one more pair of hands. I was just using common sense.”
I’m sure that the girl who refused my offer of help doesn’t mean to offend（冒犯） me. Too often, most people think the disabled should 72 care of and be protected. They don’t notice their abilities. In fact, the disabled can also be 73 .
It’s important for all of us 74 that we are accepted, appreciated and valued as a normal member of the group. Such feeling is of great 75 to people with disabilities. It sends a message that states: “To us, your abilities are more important than your disability.”
【答案】
66．walked 67．if 68．sitting 69．cups 70．happily 71．more quickly 72．be taken 73．helpful 74．to feel 75．importance
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了作者作为一个残疾人，去参加会议准备工作时，被委托了简单的工作，使他感到自己受到公正对待的故事。
66．句意：一次，我走进一些志愿者在摆放桌椅的会议室。此处应填动词作谓语，根据“Once I…to the meeting room...”可知，作者走进了会议室，结合上文时态可知，动词应使用过去式。故填walked。
67．句意：我问是否有我可以帮忙的地方。此处应填连词，根据前文动词“ask”可知，该连词引导宾语从句，表达“是否需要帮助”。故填if。
68．句意：他看见我坐在那儿无所事事。根据前文“One of the girls politely said, “Oh, no, thank you” and offered me a chair to sit.”可知，作者此时是坐着的；而根据前文“Then, another volunteer came into the room.”可知，另一个志愿者进来时，作者正在坐着，因此动词“saw”后应使用动名词形式表示“看见某人正在做某事”。故填sitting。
69．句意：然后他要求我把杯子从箱子里拿出来并放在桌子上。此处应填名词，根据后文“place them on the tables”可知，他要求作者放的是一些杯子，应用名词复数形式。故填cups。
70．句意：“好的，我可以做到。”我高兴地说。此处应填副词修饰动词“said”，根据后文“And I was now part of the team.”可知，作者因为自己能成为团队的一员帮上忙而开心。故填happily。
71．句意：我认为多一双手我们能够更快地完成。此处应填副词修饰动词“finish”，根据后文“with one more pair of hands”可知此处应使用比较级形式。故填more quickly。
72．句意：通常，大多数人认为残疾人应该被照顾和被保护。“take care of”意为“照顾”，根据后文“... and be protected”可知，此处应使用被动语态。故填be taken。
73．句意：事实上，残疾人也能够带来帮助。此处应填形容词，根据前文“They don’t notice their abilities.”可知，残疾人也是有能力的。故填helpful。
74．句意：对所有的残疾人来说，作为团体的一员，被接受、被欣赏和被重视是很重要的。根据后文“we are accepted, appreciated and valued as a normal member of the group”可知此处是残疾人的感受；而根据句式结构“it’s+形容词+for sb.+ to do”可知此处应使用动词不定式形式。故填to feel。
75．句意：这样的感受对残疾人来说是非常重要意义。此处应填名词，根据后文“It sends a message that states: “To us, your abilities are more important than your disability.”可知让残疾人感到自己有用很重要。故填importance。
