　　There are a number of approaches to mastering the art of deep work — be it focusing on a specific task， developing a daily ritual， or taking a “journalistic” approach to seizing moments of deep work when you can throughout the day.Whichever approach， the key is to determine your length of focus time and stick to it.
　　One approach to getting more done in less time is to rethink how you prioritise your day — in particular how we craft our to-do lists.Tim Harford， a famous writer， points to a study in the early 1980s that divided undergraduates into two groups： some were advised to set out monthly goals and study activities； others were told to plan activities and goals in much more detail， day by day.
　　While the researchers assumed that the daily plans would be most effective， they were wrong： the detailed daily plans discouraged students.Harford argues that distractions （干扰） often make the daily to-do list ineffective， while leaving room for flexibility in such a list can achieve the best results.
　　In order to make the most of our focus and energy， we also need to accept downtime， or as Newport suggests，“be lazy.” “Being free is as important to the brain as vitamin D is to the body，” he argues.
　　Srini Pillay， an assistant professor at Harvard Medical School， believes this link between downtime and productivity may be due to the way our brains operate.When our brains jump between being focused and unfocused on a task， they tend to be more efficient.
　　This is something used by some of the world’s highest achievers.Warren Buffett is known for having days in his calendar where nothing is scheduled because he finds sitting and thinking has a much higher priority than filling every minute of his day.It is an approach that Bill Gates has borrowed from the billionaire investor.
　　The key to being productive might be found by accepting the slumps in our day — those moments when your productivity begins to lose gradually， usually in the midmorning， directly after lunch or midafternoon.
4.What’s the most important to deep work？（　　）
A.Being efficient. B.Staying focused.
C.Prioritising your day. D.Making a scientific plan.
5.What can we learn from the study in the early 1980s？（　　）
A.Short-term goals are more effective.
B.Long-term goals are harder to reach.
C.The detailed plans do not work so well.
D.The monthly plans are usually beyond reach.
6.What does the example of Warren Buffett suggest？（　　）
A.We need time to relax ourselves.
B.We should focus on what we do.
C.We must spend some time sitting.
D.We should work harder than them.
7.What does the underlined word “slumps” in the last paragraph mean？（　　）
A.Periods when we feel relaxed.
B.Periods when we are very busy.
C.Periods when we’re in high spirits.
D.Periods when we don’t perform well.

　　I shall never forget Marion J.Douglas， who was a student in one of my adult-education classes.Here is his real story.
　　The first time he had lost his five-year-old daughter， a child he adored， he and his wife thought they couldn’t bear that first loss， but， as he said：“Ten months later， we had another little girl — and she died in five days.”
　　This double misfortunes was almost too much to bear.“I couldn’t take it，” this father told us.“I couldn’t sleep；I couldn’t eat；I couldn’t rest or relax.My nerves were completely shaken and my confidence gone.” At last he went to doctors； one recommended sleeping pills and another recommended a trip.He tried both， but neither remedy helped.He felt his world fell apart.The tension of grief — if you have ever been attacked by sorrow， you know what he meant.
　　“But luckily， I had one child left — a four-year-old son.He gave me the solution to my problem.One afternoon as I sat around feeling sorry for myself， he asked：‘Daddy， will you build a boat for me？’ I was in no mood to build a boat； in fact， I was in no mood to do anything.But my son is a persistent little fellow！ I had to give in.” Building that toy boat took about three hours.By the time it was finished， I realised that those three hours spent building that boat were the first hours of mental relaxation and peace that I had had in months！
　　“That discovery drove me out of despair and caused me to do a bit of thinking — the first real thinking I had done in months.I realised that it is difficult to worry while you are busy doing something that requires planning and thinking.”
　　No time for worry！ That is exactly what Winston Churchill said when he was working eighteen hours a day.When he was asked if he worried about his great responsibilities， he said：“I’m too busy.I have no time for worry.”
8.How did Marion J.Douglas’s feeling change according to Paragraph 2？ （　　）
A.excited→sad→hopeless B.hopeless→excited→sad
C.sad→hopeless→excited D.sad→excited→hopeless
9.Which proved to be effective in improving Marion J.Douglas’s situation？（　　）
A.Going on a trip. B.Going to doctors.
C.Building a toy boat. D.Taking sleeping pills.
10.How did Marion J.Douglas react to his son’s request？（　　）
A.He refused it politely. B.He refused it impatiently.
C.He accepted it unwillingly. D.He accepted it with pleasure.
11.What was Marion J.Douglas’s secret of dealing with his problem？（　　）
A.Playing with his son. B.Focusing on some work.
C.Taking exercise regularly. D.Increasing his social contact.

　　Staying in on a Friday night feels like a good idea — you could really use the “alone time” after a busy week — until you get on Facebook.You see your friends having a party at that cool bar you’ve been wanting to try， then you start watching another friend’s story before they set out on an exciting road trip.
　　Suddenly， that alone time you chose doesn’t feel so good anymore.You feel like it’s boring to stay at home — you may even question the purpose of your very existence.Don’t worry， that anxiety is common — and not that new.You’re experiencing FOMO， or the fear of missing out.
　　When we are constantly comparing ourselves to people around us， it can lead to some pretty tough feelings.“FOMO is about having thoughts on missing out on opportunities which might increase our happiness，” says psychologist Aarti Gupta in California.There’s a biological explanation for why we experience FOMO.“Humans are social beings and rely on each other to survive， and being left out or not being in the know could have， once upon a time， been a matter of life or death.”
　　If you find yourself comparing yourself to others in a way that doesn’t feel productive， Gupta recommends practicing an abundance （富足） mindset：“This means remembering that there are plenty of opportunities to go around for everyone， and just because someone else found success doesn’t mean that you won’t.”
　　“I think the irony of all of it is that it’s called FOMO， the fear of missing out.But really， what it is doing is that it’s making you miss out on today and that comfortable bed that you’re in right now， or the job that you’re in right now or the relationship that you’re in right now because you’re so worried about what else is out there，” says Gupta.You can battle FOMO simply by being more fully present in and invested in the life you have today.
12.What makes your alone time become unpleasant？（　　）
A.Having nothing to do. B.Staying at home by yourself.
C.Seeing your friends’ activities. D.Hearing your friends’ bad news.
13.What’s the third paragraph mainly about？（　　）
A.What FOMO is. B.The reason for FOMO.
C.The outcome of FOMO. D.How to deal with FOMO.
14.What does an abundance mindset mean？（　　）
A.Less competition. B.Less cooperation.
C.More comparison. D.Fewer opportunities.
15.What is the Aarti Gupta’s solution to FOMO？（　　）
A.Making more friends. B.Living in the here and now.
C.Engaging in more activities. D.Ignoring your surroundings.
Ⅱ.阅读七选五
　　Happiness — you know it when you see it， but it’s hard to define.You might call it a sense of wellbeing， of optimism or of meaningfulness in life.16.（　　） We also know that we don’t always have control over our happiness.Research suggests that genetics （遗传学） may play a big role in our normal level of subjective well being， so some of us may start out at a disadvantage.
　　17.（　　） “For physical health， it’s not so much happiness itself， but this ability to regulate （调节） and have a sense of purpose and meaning，” said Laura Kubzansky， professor of social and behavioural sciences at Harvard School of Public Health.
　　18.（　　） A 2012 review of more than 200 studies found positive psychological qualities， such as happiness， optimism and life satisfaction can lead to a lowered risk of cardiovascular （心血管的） disease.
　　It’s not as simple as “you must be happy to prevent heart attacks”，of course.If you have a good sense of wellbeing， it’s easier to maintain good habits：Exercising， eating a balanced diet and getting enough sleep， researchers said.19.（　　）
　　You might be thinking：“Maybe I would be happier if I had more money.” There’s that old cliché “money doesn’t buy happiness” — but is it true？ A 2010 study in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences found that emotional wellbeing rises with income up to a point， which seems to be a household income of 75，000.20.（　　） “More money does not necessarily buy more happiness， but less money is associated with emotional pain，” Kahneman and Deaton wrote.
A.Nothing is better than health.
B.It’s true that everyone is after happiness.
C.But whatever happiness is， we know that we want it.
D.Day-to-day happiness did not increase with higher incomes.
E.Managing emotional ups and downs is important for both body and mind.
F.Many studies have found a link between psychological and physical wellbeing.
G.People who have an optimistic mindset may be more likely to engage in healthy behaviours.

Ⅰ.
语篇解读；本文是一篇应用文。文章是“环境花园”组织的一次志愿者活动的相关信息。
1.D　细节理解题。根据文章末句Kneepads are available for use.可知，GFE提供护膝。
2.D　细节理解题。根据Volunteer Shift Guidelines部分中的Volunteers 13-17 years old may come on their own but will need a parent or guardian to sign a waiver （弃权书）.可知，13岁的志愿者可以独自参加该活动，但是需要父母或监护人签署弃权书。
3.A　推理判断题。根据文章首句可知，“环境花园”很高兴你能成为志愿者！再结合下面的两个小标题可知，文章主要介绍了该志愿者活动的相关信息。由此推断，文章的目的是介绍这次志愿者活动。
语篇解读；本文是一篇说明文。我们怎样才能提高工作效率呢？文章结合一项研究和专家观点告诉我们一些有关工作效率的真相。
4.B　细节理解题。根据第一段可知，深度工作的关键在于投入和专注。
5.C　细节理解题。根据第三段可知，该研究发现，详尽的短期计划并不可行，相对较为灵活的长期计划往往执行效果更好。
6.A　推理判断题。根据倒数第二段可知，巴菲特和比尔·盖茨都会安排一些时间什么都不做，只是静坐和思考。
7.D　词义猜测题。根据下文可知，在我们表现不好的时期，我们的工作效率会慢慢降低。
语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文。作者通过讲述Marion J.Douglas在失去两个女儿后努力摆脱痛苦的故事，告诉我们一个道理：保持繁忙可以赶走痛苦和焦虑。
8.D　推理判断题。根据第二段可知，Marion J.Douglas先失去了第一个女儿（sad），十个月后他又得到了一个女儿（excited），可是紧接着（五天后）第二个女儿又离开人世（hopeless）。
9.C　细节理解题。根据第三段可知，Marion J.Douglas为了摆脱痛苦，先后去看医生、吃安眠药和外出旅行，可是这些都无效；根据第五段可知，帮助儿子制作玩具船让他获得了内心的放松和宁静。
10.C　细节理解题。根据第四段可知，当儿子提出制作小船的要求后，Marion J.Douglas极不情愿地答应了。
11.B　主旨大意题。最后一段中两次提到的no time for worry是对全文主题的概括，也是Marion J.Douglas摆脱痛苦和焦虑的关键所在，即专注于一些工作。
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。错失恐惧症特指那种总在担心失去或错过什么的焦虑心情，也称“局外人困境”。
12.C　细节理解题。根据第一、二段可知，你本来打算好好独自享受周末，结果因为在社交媒体上看到周围朋友们的精彩生活一下子感到自己的周末索然无味。
13.B　段落大意题。根据第三段可知，本段主要分析和解释了错失恐惧症发生的根本原因。从生物学的角度而言，错失恐惧症是我们人类基于生存目的的一种本能反应。
14.A　推理判断题。根据第四段可知，富足心态具体表现为：相信这个世界上人人都有成功的机会，别人的成功并不意味着自己的不成功。也就是说，这种心态带来的结果是人与人之间的竞争和攀比会少一些，合作支持会多一些。
15.B　推理判断题。根据最后一段可知，Aarti Gupta认为，应对错失恐惧症的关键在于“活在当下”。live in the here and now是live in the present的另一种表达方式。
Ⅱ.
语篇解读：本文是一篇议论文。文章主要探讨了何为幸福以及我们怎样才能获得幸福这一话题。
16.C　上句在讨论对“幸福”的定义，本句接着说“无论你怎么定义幸福，我们都渴望得到它”。因此C项符合语境。
17.E　下句提到的this ability to regulate正是指E项所说的“管理情绪起落的能力”。
18.F　下文告诉我们：一些研究表明，积极的心理品质会降低患心血管疾病的风险，因此F项（许多研究发现了心理和身体健康之间的联系）符合语境。
19.G　上文提到幸福感强的人往往会有良好的生活习惯，G项进一步说明：心态乐观的人更热爱参加健康的活动。
20.D　上句提到人们的幸福感会随着收入的增长而增强，本句接着告诉我们：当年收入超过75，000美元后，幸福感则不会进一步增加。因此D项符合语境。

　　There are a number of approaches to mastering the art of deep
work — be it focusing on a specific task， developing a daily ritual， or
taking a “journalistic” approach to seizing moments of deep work when
you can throughout the day.Whichever approach， the key is to
determine your length of focus time and stick to it.
　　One approach to getting more done in less time is to rethink how you
prioritise your day — in particular how we craft our to-do lists.Tim
Harford， a famous writer， points to a study in the early 1980s that
divided undergraduates into two groups： some were advised to set out
monthly goals and study activities； others were told to plan activities and
goals in much more detail， day by day.
　　While the researchers assumed that the daily plans would be most
effective， they were wrong： the detailed daily plans discouraged
students.Harford argues that distractions （干扰） often make the daily
to-do list ineffective， while leaving room for flexibility in such a list can
achieve the best results.
　　In order to make the most of our focus and energy， we also need to
accept downtime， or as Newport suggests，“be lazy.” “Being free is
as important to the brain as vitamin D is to the body，” he argues.
　　Srini Pillay， an assistant professor at Harvard Medical School，
believes this link between downtime and productivity may be due to the
way our brains operate.When our brains jump between being focused and
unfocused on a task， they tend to be more efficient.
　　This is something used by some of the world’s highest
achievers.Warren Buffett is known for having days in his calendar where
nothing is scheduled because he finds sitting and thinking has a much
higher priority than filling every minute of his day.It is an approach that
Bill Gates has borrowed from the billionaire investor.
　　The key to being productive might be found by accepting the slumps
in our day — those moments when your productivity begins to lose
gradually， usually in the midmorning， directly after lunch or
midafternoon.

　　I shall never forget Marion J. Douglas， who was a student in one of
my adult-education classes.Here is his real story.
　　The first time he had lost his five-year-old daughter， a child he
adored， he and his wife thought they couldn’t bear that first loss，
but， as he said：“Ten months later， we had another little girl — and
she died in five days.”
　　This double misfortunes was almost too much to bear.“I couldn’t
take it，” this father told us.“I couldn’t sleep；I couldn’t eat；I
couldn’t rest or relax.My nerves were completely shaken and my
confidence gone.” At last he went to doctors； one recommended
sleeping pills and another recommended a trip.He tried both， but neither
remedy helped.He felt his world fell apart.The tension of grief — if you
have ever been attacked by sorrow， you know what he meant.
　　“But luckily， I had one child left — a four-year-old son.He gave
me the solution to my problem.One afternoon as I sat around feeling sorry
for myself， he asked：‘Daddy， will you build a boat for me？’ I
was in no mood to build a boat； in fact， I was in no mood to do
anything.But my son is a persistent little fellow！ I had to give in.”
Building that toy boat took about three hours.By the time it was
finished， I realised that those three hours spent building that boat were
the first hours of mental relaxation and peace that I had had in months！
　　“That discovery drove me out of despair and caused me to do a bit
of thinking — the first real thinking I had done in months.I realised that it
is difficult to worry while you are busy doing something that requires
planning and thinking.”
　　No time for worry！ That is exactly what Winston Churchill said
when he was working eighteen hours a day.When he was asked if he
worried about his great responsibilities， he said：“I’m too busy.I
have no time for worry.”

　　Staying in on a Friday night feels like a good idea — you could really
use the “alone time” after a busy week — until you get on Facebook.You see your friends having a party at that cool bar you’ve been wanting to try， then you start watching another friend’s story before they set out on an exciting road trip.
　　Suddenly， that alone time you chose doesn’t feel so good
anymore.You feel like it’s boring to stay at home — you may even
question the purpose of your very existence.Don’t worry， that anxiety
is common — and not that new.You’re experiencing FOMO， or the
fear of missing out.
　　When we are constantly comparing ourselves to people around us，
it can lead to some pretty tough feelings.“FOMO is about having
thoughts on missing out on opportunities which might increase our
happiness，” says psychologist Aarti Gupta in California.There’s a
biological explanation for why we experience FOMO. “Humans are
social beings and rely on each other to survive， and being left out or not
being in the know could have， once upon a time， been a matter of life
or death.”
　　If you find yourself comparing yourself to others in a way that
doesn’t feel productive， Gupta recommends practicing an abundance
（富足） mindset：“This means remembering that there are plenty of
opportunities to go around for everyone， and just because someone else
found success doesn’t mean that you won’t.”
　　“I think the irony of all of it is that it’s called FOMO， the fear of
missing out.But really， what it is doing is that it’s making you miss out
on today and that comfortable bed that you’re in right now， or the job
that you’re in right now or the relationship that you’re in right now
because you’re so worried about what else is out there，” says
Gupta.You can battle FOMO simply by being more fully present in and
invested in the life you have today.

或错过什么的焦虑心情，也称“局外人困境”。
12. What makes your alone time become unpleasant？（　　）
A. Having nothing to do.
B. Staying at home by yourself.
C. Seeing your friends’ activities.
D. Hearing your friends’ bad news.

独自享受周末，结果因为在社交媒体上看到周围朋友们的精彩生

B. The reason for FOMO.
C. The outcome of FOMO.
D. How to deal with FOMO.
解析：　段落大意题。根据第三段可知，本段主要分析和解释
了错失恐惧症发生的根本原因。从生物学的角度而言，错失恐惧
症是我们人类基于生存目的的一种本能反应。
14. What does an abundance mindset mean？（　　）
A. Less competition.
B. Less cooperation.
C. More comparison.
D. Fewer opportunities.
解析：　推理判断题。根据第四段可知，富足心态具体表现
为：相信这个世界上人人都有成功的机会，别人的成功并不意味
着自己的不成功。也就是说，这种心态带来的结果是人与人之间
的竞争和攀比会少一些，合作支持会多一些。
15. What is the Aarti Gupta’s solution to FOMO？（　　）
A. Making more friends.
B. Living in the here and now.
C. Engaging in more activities.
D. Ignoring your surroundings.
解析：　推理判断题。根据最后一段可知，Aarti Gupta认为，
应对错失恐惧症的关键在于“活在当下”。live in the here and
now是live in the present的另一种表达方式。

　　Happiness — you know it when you see it， but it’s hard to
define.You might call it a sense of wellbeing， of optimism or of
meaningfulness in life.16.（　　） We also know that we don’t always
have control over our happiness.Research suggests that genetics （遗传
学） may play a big role in our normal level of subjective well being， so
some of us may start out at a disadvantage.
　　17. （　　） “For physical health， it’s not so much happiness
itself， but this ability to regulate （调节） and have a sense of purpose
and meaning，” said Laura Kubzansky， professor of social and
behavioural sciences at Harvard School of Public Health.
　　18. （　　） A 2012 review of more than 200 studies found positive
psychological qualities， such as happiness， optimism and life
satisfaction can lead to a lowered risk of cardiovascular （心血管的）
disease.
　　It’s not as simple as “you must be happy to prevent heart
attacks”，of course.If you have a good sense of wellbeing， it’s easier
to maintain good habits：Exercising， eating a balanced diet and getting
enough sleep， researchers said.19.（　　）
　　You might be thinking：“Maybe I would be happier if I had more
money.” There’s that old cliché “money doesn’t buy
happiness” — but is it true？ A 2010 study in Proceedings of the
National Academy of Sciences found that emotional wellbeing rises with
income up to a point， which seems to be a household income of 75，
000.20.（　　） “More money does not necessarily buy more
happiness， but less money is associated with emotional pain，”
Kahneman and Deaton wrote.
B. It’s true that everyone is after happiness.
C. But whatever happiness is， we know that we want it.
D. Day-to-day happiness did not increase with higher incomes.
E. Managing emotional ups and downs is important for both body and
mind.
F. Many studies have found a link between psychological and physical
wellbeing.
G. People who have an optimistic mindset may be more likely to engage
in healthy behaviours.
A. Nothing is better than health.
