That morning, we noticed a cab following Sir Henry and Dr. Mortimer

We went to Sir Henry’s hotel. Holmes asked Dr. Mortimer if anyone with a
black beard (胡须) lived in or near Baskerville Hall.
“Yes,” said Dr. Mortimer, “Barrymore.”
“We must send a telegram (电报) to check whether Barrymore is in London or at Baskerville Hall,” said Holmes.
Sir Henry said he wanted to go to Baskerville Hall.
“OK”, said Holmes. “But you mustn’t go alone. Watson can go with you.”
Sir Henry and I agreed to take the 10:30 train on Saturday.
Holmes thought deeply on the way home: the story of the Hound, Sir Charles’s death, the strange letter, the missing boot and the black-bearded man. He sat in his room all afternoon, smoking and thinking.
Just before dinner, a telegram arrived. It said, “Barrymore is at Baskerville Hall.”
“That becomes a dead end, Watson. We will have to look for another way to go forward.”
Just then the doorbell rang. It was the cab driver who drove the man with the black beard. “I got a message that you are asking for me”, he said. “I’ve never had a complaint. I came here to ask you what you had against me!”
“No, no,” said Holmes. “Instead, I’ll give you money if you tell me about the man in your cab this morning. He watched this house at 10:00 and then told you to follow the two gentlemen.”
The driver looked surprised and then answered, “The man said he was a detective and that I shouldn’t tell anyone about him.”
“It’s serious, my friend, and you may be in trouble if you refuse to answer.” “His name,” said the driver, “was Sherlock Holmes.”
I’d never seen Holmes more surprised. Then he laughed. “He scored against me that time, Watson.”
The driver told us everything he knew. Holmes gave him the money and sent him away. “This is a dangerous enemy, Watson.”

A girl who graduated from a world famous university, and she wanted to do translation work for authority leaders. She was so happy when she entered the British Embassy (大使馆). She thought it was the greatest happiness in her life as many graduates wanted to get that job and she was one of the few people who got it!
But when she started her new job, she realized that it was just a job of answering calls and recording staff members’ arriving and leaving times. It was supposed to have no future. For some time, she felt upset and didn’t know what to do. However, she didn’t want to give up this job. She thought about it for one or two days and finally she decided that she would try her best to do this job. From then on, she learned to appreciate her own job. She wrote down the names and phone numbers of the staff members on a notebook so that she could remember them. She found great pleasure dealing with the daily chores. When a phone call came in, she picked up the phone as soon as possible. When someone asked her about who was not in the office, she would give the right name and even the time when he or she left. Nobody could do that except her.
Her excellent work received praise not only from the embassy’s members, but also from people in the local government. A leader of a famous company in Britain was deeply impressed by her, so he invited her to work for him. After that she became the leader’s personal translator and she was appreciated by the foreigners.
We cannot choose our destiny (命运), but we can choose the attitude with which we face our life. Maybe the attitude could change our destiny.
( ) 33. What was once the girl’s greatest happiness in her life

( ) 35. Why was the girl invited to work for the British company

( ) 36. What does the author want to tell us
A. Everybody has his or her own hard time in life.
B. We should take a positive attitude towards life.
C. We should be ready to give a hand to our friends.

(D)
①Life is full of unexpected moments that can surprise us. When
facing unexpected situations, we often find ourselves at a crossroads: to
react or to respond. While these two words may seem similar, they are
actually different ways to deal with challenges. Understanding the
difference can help us make better choices in difficult situations.
②Reacting is our natural response. It’s immediate and emotional. When we react, we want to follow a simple pattern: something happens, we feel anxious, and then we continue without much thought. So some regrettable decisions are always made because it doesn’t allow time for proper consideration.
③Responding, on the other hand, is a more thoughtful process. Before we take actions to do with the event, it helps to create more space. This space allows us to observe our emotions, understand the situation clearly, and make thoughtful choices. The responding process can be broken down into four steps: pause, process, plan, and proceed.
④Research from UCLA has shown that simply naming our emotions—a technique called Affect Labeling (or Emotion Labeling) that is the practice of identifying and naming our emotional state, such as saying “I feel anxious” or “I’m disappointed right now”. It can greatly reduce stress levels. By doing this, we create mental distance from our emotions, making it easier to respond wisely.
⑤ ▲ You might make mistakes in your work, or you just forgot your homework at home or had an argument with a friend. Instead of reacting right away—like yelling (吼叫), crying, or doing something you’ll regret, try these following four steps: First, stop and take three deep breaths. Second, say to yourself how you’re feeling. Third, think about what choices you have. Fourth, choose the best action and do it.
⑥Just as life’s unexpected moments test us at every crossroads, the choice between reacting and responding greatly shapes our journey. By practicing the art of thoughtful response again and again, we change those surprising challenges into chances for growth. Two ways of thinking seem similar at first, but one gives you a lasting superpower: when things get unknown, you stay calm and choose wisely.
( ) 37. What is the key difference between “reacting” and “responding”
A. Reacting is planned, while responding is natural.
B. Reacting needs help from others, while responding doesn’t.
C. Reacting is for big problems, while responding is for small problems.
D. Reacting is quick and emotional, while responding is calm and thoughtful.
( ) 38. Why does the author mention “Affect Labeling” in Paragraph 4
A.To argue emotions should be ignored.
B. To suggest only experts should use it.
C. To show how naming emotions reduces stress.
D. To announce it as an ineffective emotional tool.
( ) 39. Which sentence can be put in the “ ▲ ”
A. These steps are too difficult for most people to follow.
B. This way of responding works for all kinds of problems.
C. When facing major life challenges, these steps won’t help.
D. Experts suggest reacting immediately to solve problems.
( ) 40. What is the best title and structure of the passage
A. Responding wisely B. Reacting quickly
C. Responding wisely D. Reacting quickly
第二节 阅读填空（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）
Ten years ago, many people thought that the age of physical
books was coming to an end. The objects that had been the
companions of millions of readers for hundreds of years were
about to disappear. Soon, we’d all be reading on little electronic
screens and laughing at the memory of places called “libraries”
and “bookshops”.
___41___ At least in the UK, as The Guardian noted, sales of e-books are falling while sales of physical books are rising. More surprisingly, it’s young people who are buying the most physical books. More than 60 percent of 16-to-24-year-olds preferred print books to e-books. The most popular reason given was “I like to hold the product.”
Books become very personal objects to lovers of reading. It often starts with the way they get them. ___42___ And we carry books around with us everywhere.
If there’s a mark made on the pages from coffee or food, it doesn’t matter. ___43___ It’s as if readers of physical books make friends with their books.
Of course, some could say that the devices on which people read e-books, like Kindles and iPads are also objects that we like. But it isn’t quite the same. A Kindle can hold as many pieces of writing as a whole library. ___44___
Physical books are as valuable to some readers as photographs of family members. This “friendship” people develop with books isn’t just about feelings. Research has shown that readers remember more information read from physical books than electronic ones.
However, there’s no doubt e-books are here to stay. ___45___ But it’s also certain that physical books, which have been in production since the fifteenth century, are here to stay, too.
A. They aren’t simply a “here today, gone tomorrow” thing.
B. These accidents make the book—our book—even more personal.
C. However, it seems not true about the idea of the death of the physical books.
D. Many buyers of books like to write down their names on the inside cover when they’ve bought one.
E. But a story we remember from our time turning its real pages in our favourite armchair remains in our memory forever.
