An internationally praised cultural thing has introduced the attractive tale of Sun Wukong to audiences worldwide. But for Ghaffar Pourazar a British-American dual citizen living in California; this legendary figure has been a part of his identity for decades.
Pourazar’s lifelong passion for Peking Opera began by chance. In 1993, Pourazar attended a performance at London’s Queen Elizabeth Hall and was instantly captured. He went backstage right after the show and made friends with the Chinese performers. With their help, Pourazar was enrolled at an opera school. Just three months later, he left his life in Britain behind and. moved to Beijing to train in the martial roles of the art.
Starting as ar r adult was not easy, as Peking Opera is a complex mixture of vocal performance, mime, martial arts, dance and acrobatics. In addition to the physical demands, mastering the Chinese language posed another problem. “I was constantly reciting the subtitles and. songs, whether I was eating, bathing, walking, or even dreaming,” Pourazar said.
Pourazar believes that great art transcends (超越) languages. Over the years, he has devoted himself to introducing Peking Opera and Sun Wukong to international audiences. He has also been teaching courses and organizing workshops in the United-States, bringing Peking Opera to curious Western learners. To better connect with. Western audiences and learners, he adapted some classic plays such as The Monkey King: Uproar in Heaven into English versions and he also adapted Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream into-Peking Opera.
In recognition of his contributions, Pourazar received the Great Wall Friendship Award from the Beijing government in 2014. “Cultural exchange should be reciprocal. I aim to blend my expertise m opera with my multicultural background to create enriching artistic experiences for the audiences,” said Pourazar.
4. What is the author’s intention of writing paragraph 1
A. To prove Ghaffar Pourazar’s achievement.
B. To introduce a cultural influence on an individual.
C. To explain the cultural significance of Sun Wukong.
D. To highlight the fascination of ancient Chinese tales.
5. What do we know about Pourazar’s experience of learning Peking Opera
A Language was a significant barrier for him.
B. The performers he met backstage taught him the art.
C. Queen Elizabeth made him interested in Peking Opera.
D. His enthusiasm for Peking Opera started at an early age.
6. What is paragraph 4 mainly about
A. His great love for Peking Opera.
B. His amazing performance on stage.
C. His belief in performing Peking Opera.
D. His contribution to spreading Peking Opera.
7. Which of the following words best describe Pourazar

What if everything happens for a reason Burnt toast theory, a modern view on this classic idea, suggests that every little inconvenience we experience in our day-to-day lives happens for a bigger reason.
Imagine you accidentally burn your toast before leaving for work. According to burnt toast theory, this tiny inconvenience can cause a domino effect (多米诺效应). Your morning gets delayed by three to five minutes—just enough time to leave the house later than usual and avoid a potential car accident. Or perhaps you catch a later train, missing an awkward encounter with someone you don’t intend to see. You might even meet someone new whom you wouldn’t have otherwise met, leading to a friendship or romantic connection.
When we feel like things are outside our control, that can be scary. The burnt toast theory can help some people let go of their need for control and take negative situations more positively.
However, while maintaining a positive mindset can be beneficial, over-optimism can lead to “poisonous positivity”. When we only allow ourselves to focus on positive thoughts, we are denying ourselves the chance to properly deal with challenges and difficult situations to better ourselves, focusing on creating a false positive fa ade (假象) instead. By constantly avoiding negative experiences, we might ignore their real impact on us and fail to acknowledge when we’re struggling. It can make us feel worse about ourselves, and may lead to pushing down negative feelings or experiences, and refusing to acknowledge or deal with them fully.
Instead of focusing purely on positive thinking, working towards developing a growth mindset may be more helpful. You don’t always have to look for life’s silver linings, or even the meaning behind a little burnt toast. Sometimes things happen, and they suck. But as long as we take time to acknowledge how these things make us feel, and recognize that we can’t always control everything around us, we can still work towards improving ourselves, and how we handle life’s unexpected challenges—and that’s what really matters.
8. What can be inferred from the burnt toast theory
A. Life is a process, not destination. B. Lost in the east, gained in the west.
C. Life is full of endless challenges. D. Lost time will never be found again.
9. Which can be an outcome from “poisonous positivity”
A. Loss of chances to grow. B. Failure to acknowledge others.
C. Inability to control emotions. D. Decline in physical health.
10. Which can be seen as a growth mindset mentioned in the last paragraph
A. Finding reasons for failure.
B. Avoiding pushing others too hard.
C. Accepting life and making it better.
D. Keeping a positive mindset and working hard.
11. Which is the best possible title for the text
A. Bum Toast Theory: Find a True Self
B. Bum Toast Theory: Lead a Positive Life
C. Burn Toast Theory: More than Positivity
D. Burn Toast Theory: How to Live Actively
D
People vary in how well they discriminate and identify foods. The variation is explained by a general ability to recognize objects. We researchers originally theorized the variability might also be associated with people’s attitude toward new foods. Those who endorse statements like “I am particular about what I eat” have food neophobia — refusal of food novelty. Sure enough, our study did find picky eaters scored worst on our tests of food recognition: Food neophobia is negatively correlated with food recognition ability.
While we were publishing our finding, scientists were debating new findings about how the brain reacts to food and color. Different research groups had identified brain areas in the visual system that responded preferentially to images of food. For instance, looking at a bowl of noodles would activate these brain areas, but not looking at a pile of string. The scientific disagreement was about what it meant to identify a selectivity for food in brain areas already known for their responsiveness to color.
We repeated our initial study with gray-scale images of food. The result showed without color, people unsurprisingly made more errors, mistaking different dishes as the same, but the pattern of variation across people was otherwise unchanged. Those with a higher general visual ability did better with food. We also found one effect of removing color: Food neophobia was no longer correlated with food recognition ability. It was as if whatever advantage the adventurous eaters had gained over picky ones was all dependent on color.
We then made an entirely new prediction: Would people with color blindness be less food neophobic than those with normal color perception Because the colorblind experience food in a restricted range of color, certain signals that raise flags about freshness, safety, or otherwise drive anxiety about novel food could be limited.
We invited participants online, based on how they answered one question about color blindness buried in a long screening questionnaire. The survey suggested colorblind people were indeed less food neophobic than the non-colorblind. Seeing the world with a narrow color range seems to ease an emotion-based resistance to novel foods.
Our findings pave the way for addressing extreme cases of food neophobia. As researchers learn more about the complicated relevance between color perception and food, we might develop targeted interventions to improve dietary habits.
12. What does the underlined word “endorse” mean in paragraph 1
A. Comment on. B. Approve of. C. Worry about. D. Argue against.
13. What’s the purpose of writing paragraph 2
A. To illustrate an argument.
B. To emphasize the value of science.
C. To explain the background of later tests.
D. To indicate a positive academic atmosphere.
14. Why are colorblind people less food neophobic according to the study
A. They’re born with a bigger appetite.
B. They’re more expert at recognizing food.
C. They prefer to take risks and try fresh things.
D. They fail to perceive some food signs causing tension.
15. How did the author uncover the effect of color on emotional responses to food
A. By experiencing food diversity firsthand.
B. By analyzing feedback from respondents.
C. By testing brains’ reaction to colorful foods.
D By monitoring picky eaters’ dietary variations.

Admittedly, complex writing that uses rich vocabulary and vivid figurative language can wow readers. But it isn’t the only mark of a good writer. Another skill that’s of equal importance is the ability to convey ideas in plain language. ___16___ To write in plain language, there are some general guidelines for you to follow.
___17___ The only details they include are those necessary for the reader to understand the sentences’ meaning. For example, the sign “Wait behind the yellow line.” at a train platform includes “yellow” so travelers know where to stand.
Plain language avoids using vocabulary that requires specialized knowledge. If you work in IT, you can comfortably use the word “latency” with your colleagues. ___18___ But when speaking with someone without an IT background, you might instead use “slow” to ensure that they know what you’re talking about.
Plain language is more than word choices, though. ___19___ This can be achieved in the following ways. For example, use clear headers for each section and keep paragraphs focused on one idea each. Make the relationships between ideas and sentences clear with transition words. Write directly to your reader. Additionally, use the active voice whenever possible to enhance clarity.
It is important to note that not every guideline for plain writing will apply to every piece of writing. The ultimate goal is to create contents that are accessible and easily understood. By using plain language, you demonstrate respect for your readers’ time and intelligence. ___20___
A. That is because they know what it means.
B. Thus, it develops positive relationships with them.
C. It also involves structuring writing to prioritize clarity.
D. One key aspect of plain writing is ensuring sentences are as short as possible.
E. It involves using direct and accessible language with a straightforward structure.
F. This can be especially important for those who speak English as a second language.
G. Plain language reduces the risk of misunderstandings caused by confusing language choices.

The waves crashed heavily against the rocks, the stormy sea swallowing the once-powerful ship. The only survivor of the shipwreck was brought by the currents to the shore of a small, uninhabited island. His desperate cries for help mixed with the roar of the storm, only to be swallowed by the ocean.
Exhausted and disoriented, he lay on the sandy beach, thanking whatever forces had saved his life. After he surveyed the surroundings, he realized the harsh reality of his isolation. He prayed to God and scanned the horizon for any sign of rescue, but no help appeared. In the midst of despair, he gradually awakened to the fact that he had to survive on this uninhabited island on his own. Driven by great determination, the survivor managed to build a shelter with the driftwood to protect him from the elements, and to store his few possessions.
Days turned into weeks, and weeks into months. The survivor, once stuck in his isolation, started exploring the island’s hidden treasures. His routine became a dull cycle of hunting for food, collecting rainwater, and scanning the horizon for any sign of rescue. But the vast expanse of the ocean offered no comfort, no ship on the horizon to save him.
Despite his loneliness, the survivor clung to hope. The sunrises brought a glimmer of optimism, and he kept scanning the horizon, searching for any trace of rescue.
Then, one fateful day, as he returned from a fruitless search for food, he was greeted by a devastating sight — his shelter was on fire, and the smoke was rolling up to the sky! The worst had happened — the fire had consumed all his possessions, leaving him nothing but the clothes on his back. Desperation and disbelief seized him as he watched the smoke rise to the sky, a cruel demonstration of his misfortune.
注意： 1.续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
“God, how could you do this to me!” he cried.

The rescuers explained that they had seen the smoke signal from the burning shelter.

His prayers were seemingly unanswered, and now, even the shelter he had painstakingly constructed lay in ruins. The fire not only consumed the tangible evidence of his perseverance, but also the fragile hope that had kept him going... In the depths of despair, the survivor slept restlessly. But as the first rays of dawn painted the sky, he was awakened by the sound of a ship that was approaching the island. Disbelief mingled with hope in his weary eyes when rescuers stood before him. Bewildered, he asked: “How did you know I was here ”
