What comes to your mind when you think about peer pressure Is it a feeling of
disappointment as you think back on the times you did something dumb 26 for social reward, or because of others’ influence
What if the same psychological forces that push us toward questionable behavior also hold the power to amplify good ones We often talk about peer pressure as something to 27 . We treat it like a villain in the story of decision-making. Peer pressure itself isn’t inherently good or bad. It’s a 28 and reinforcement of the behaviors, values, and choices a group desires most.
The same social mechanisms that push people toward ____29____ behavior can also pull them toward cooperation and care. In one study, researchers observed how peer influence worked both ways. If popularity in a group was linked to aggression, aggressive behavior spread.
However, if it was linked to kindness, prosocial behavior 30 .
Peer pressure can magnify whatever matters most to a group, workplace, or family. If a
culture values risk or 31 , that’s what spreads. But if a culture values curiosity, empathy, or cooperation, those qualities will grow.
Research on child development shows that adolescents 32 social norms through peer interaction. In one study, researchers found that students who were considered the “popular” kids had stronger 33 to influence behavioral norms. If the popular students 34 more positive peer pressure examples such as cooperation and kindness, those behaviors were
more likely to be repeated.
The research around positive peer pressure in schools offers 35 remarkable hope and opportunity for students. Kids who model empathy and responsibility can redefine
what’s “cool” within their social groups and turn cooperation and kindness into desirable traits.
Regardless of age, it’s easy to see how prosocial behaviors can spread. Whether kids see these behaviors modeled in our communities, homes, or at schools, the message remains: seeing good behaviors modeled can get others to follow suit.
(B)
Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.
A. withdraw B. isolated C. ties D. professionally E. venturing F. appreciate G. tipped H. preferences I. naturally J. rewiring K. inquire
As an old saying goes, don’t put all your eggs in one basket. Still, many people who might follow this financial advice often ignore it when it comes to their daily lives: their self-esteem may depend on whether they get promoted at work, or their social 36 might rely on a single
close friend.
Just as putting all your resources into one stock is a recipe for financial disaster, relying on
only one or two baskets to hold your emotional needs can lead to trouble if those baskets are 37 over: your company might go out of business. Similarly, your friend might
38 because they’re feeling stressed.
Often, the solution to their problems lies in exploring these areas-essentially stepping
outside their comfort zones. The same idea applies here: diversifying — creating new baskets — involves 39 into unfamiliar territory, trying new things. Ask yourself what’s most
lacking in your life socially or 40 that you need to develop Again, the more baskets the better.
Once you know where you want to go, it’s time to plan how to get there. If you’re quite 41 , consider ways to expand your social network; if your professional self-esteem
depends on your promotion, step back and 42 how much your professional skills have developed over time. But, if possible, also dig deeper. For example, having a small social circle could be the result of being 43 shy and having social anxiety, just as putting all your eggs in the job baskets is a byproduct of anxiety that keeps your world small. Ideally, focus on both what you can do to expand your world and attack what might be holding you back.
Instead of doing what you think you should, try following what excites you. Following
excitement or simple 44 not only helps you break free from being driven by others’
approval, but also points the direction to what you truly want and need. By letting these positive feelings be your guide, you’re 45 your brain and lowering your anxiety.
III. Reading Comprehension (15’+30’ = 45’)
Section A
Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or
phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.
Throughout history, many lives have been lost at the hands of severe weather.
Meteorologists (气象学家) and scientists alike are always investigating new ways to increase the warning time for storms, with the hope of reducing the ______ of lives. In the past few decades, local weather radar advancements have been made, which allow for better accuracy in the paths of storms.
Meteorologists and scientists have been able to successfully track severe thunderstorms and possible tornadoes by using an advanced tracking system called NEXRAD (Next-Generation
Radar). NEXRAD is a tracking network 158 Doppler weather radars. And during a storm this high-resolution computerized takes readings on the amount of precipitation (降水) in the air, the movements in the clouds, and the wind speeds.
These are bounced back to a local weather computer, and a colorful image appears on the screen, giving meteorologists a clear picture of what kind of weather is on the horizon. This final image is what you see when the meteorologist breaks in with severe weather reports and
warnings. , on your television screen you will see a computer animated image of the approaching storm.
If the storm is severe enough, then the National Weather Service (NWS) will
severe weather reports of severe thunderstorm warnings for your area. , the storm captured on the radar will have produced strong readable winds, detectable lightning, and some hail (冰雹). Paying attention to the weather map is when severe weather is around.
On the television screen you will see several colors on the precipitation map, from blue (the lightest) to black (the heaviest). If the colors for your area are yellow, take
caution. If the colors range between orange and red, take cover immediately, as damaging winds and dangerous lightning have been reported.
When local weather radar in Atlanta, Georgia reported high winds, ______ wind patterns and large hail earlier this year, the National Weather Service issued a tornado .
Meteorologists in the area used the collected data to predict what path the storm would take, which areas needed to be warned.
Thanks to this technology, most residents received the severe weather reports early enough to seek before the storm hit. Paying attention to your local weather source during severe weather plays a vital role in your safety.

Section B
Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by
several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.
(A)
At first glance Esther Okade seems like a normal 10-year-old. She loves dressing up as Elsa from “Frozen”, playing with Barbie dolls and going to the park or shopping. But what makes the British-Nigerian youngster stand out is the fact that she’s also a university student.
Esther, from Walsall, an industrial town in the UK’s West Midlands region, is one of the
country’s youngest college freshmen. The talented 10-year-old enrolled at the Open University in January and is already top of the class, having recently scored 100% in an exam.
“It’s so interesting and super easy,” she laughs. “My mum taught me in a nice way.” She adds: “I want to finish the course in two years. Then I’m going to do my PhD in financial maths when I’m 13. I want to have my own bank by the time I’m 15 because I like numbers and I like people and banking is a great way to help people.”
And in case people think her parents have pushed her into starting university early, Esther disagrees. “I actually wanted to start when I was seven. But my mum didn’t agree.” After three years of begging, Mother Efe finally agreed to explore the idea.
Esther has always jumped ahead of her peers. Her mother noticed her daughter’s gift for
figures shortly after she began homeschooling her at the age of three. Initially, Esther’s parents
had enrolled her in a private school but after a few short weeks, the usually-energetic youngster
refused to go back to that school because the teachers didn’t let her talk in class. In the UK,
education is not compulsory until five, so Efe started to do little things at home by teaching basic number skills but Esther was miles ahead. By four, her natural talent for maths had seen the eager student move on to algebra (代数学) and quadratic equations (二次方程式).
And Esther isn’t the only maths miracle in the family. Her younger brother Isaiah, 6, will soon be sitting his first A-level exam in June.
61 .Which of the following makes Esther Okade different from her normal peers
A .She is the youngest college student in the UK.
B .She goes to university at a much earlier age.
C .She often gets full marks in maths exams.
D .She loves acting as a university student.
62 .From the passage we can learn that .
A .Esther thinks her parents expect too much of her
B .Esther cannot adapt herself well to college life
C .Esther asked to go to university even earlier
D .Esther dislikes being taught at home
63 .What might be a main factor that has led to Esther’s being a maths genius
A .The gene from her family. B .Her course in the university.
C .The criticism from her teachers. D .Her mother’s homeschooling.
64 .Esther can be described as a girl who .
A .is ambitious and has a clear goal B .is creative and loves exploring the unknown
C .is rebellious but ready to help others D .is energetic but reluctant to challenge herself

From Marie Tussaud’s Chamber of Horrors to Disneyland’s Haunted Mansion (鬼屋) to horror-themed escape rooms, haunted house attractions have terrified and delighted audiences around the world for more than 200 years.
These attractions turn out to be good places to study fear. They help scientists understand the body’s response to fright and how we perceive some situations as enjoyably thrilling and
others as truly terrible. One surprising finding: having friends close at hand in a haunted house might make you more jumpy, not less so.
Psychologist and study co-author Sarah Tashjian, who is now at the University of
Melbourne, and her team conducted their research with 156 adults, who each wore a wireless wrist sensor during their visit. The sensor measured skin responses linked to the body’s reactions to
stress and other situations. When the sensor picked up, for example, greater skin conductance — that is, the degree to which the skin can transmit an electric current — that was a sign that the
body was more aroused and ready for fight or flight. In addition to this measure, people reported their expected fear (on a scale of 1 to 10) before entering the haunted house and their experienced fear (on the same scale) after completing the haunt.
The scientists found that people who reported greater fear also showed heightened skin
responses. Being with friends, Tashjian and her colleagues further found, increased physiological arousal during the experience, which was linked to stronger feelings of fright. In fact, the fear
response was actually weaker when people went through the house in the presence of strangers.
Other investigators have used haunted houses to understand how fear and enjoyment can
coexist. In a 2020 study led by Marc Malmdorf Andersen, a member of the Recreational Fear Lab at Aarhus University in Denmark, scientists joined forces with Dystopia Haunted House. The
Danish attraction includes such terrifying experiences as being chased by “Mr. Piggy”, a large,
chain-saw-wielding man wearing a bloody butcher’s apron and pig mask. People between the ages of 12 and 57 were video recorded at peak moments during the attraction, wore heart-rate monitors throughout and reported on their experience. People’s fright was tied to large-scale heart-rate
fluctuations; their enjoyment was linked to small-scale ones. The results suggest that fear and enjoyment can happen together when physiological arousal is balanced “just right” .
68 .Studying haunted house attractions helps scientists to learn about .
A .the psychological effects of fear on individuals
B .the history of horror-themed entertainment
C .the body’s response to material rewards
D .the impact of technology on people’s enjoyment
69 .How did Sarah Tashjian and her team conduct their research on haunted house experiences
A .By surveying participants. B .By analyzing historical records.
C .By employing wireless wrist sensors. D .By using virtual reality simulations.
70 .What did Tashjian and her colleagues discover in their study
A .Being with friends elevated level of physiological arousal.
B .The fear reaction was stronger in the company of strangers.
C .Psychological effect was unrelated to intensified feelings of fright.
D .Those reporting lightened fear showed increased skin responses.
71 .It can be concluded from the 2020 study led by Marc Malmdorf Andersen that .
A .fear and enjoyment can not happen at the same time
B .large-scale heart-rate fluctuations were linked to enjoyment
C .the age of the participants was not related to the study’s findings
D .fear and enjoyment can coexist under certain conditions
Section C
Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two
more sentences than you need.
Multivitamins (复合维生素) are the most common dietary supplement in the U.S. People take these pills for a variety of health reasons, but the science on what multivitamins may do for your health is mixed, and none of them are approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. 72 .
In a randomized clinical trial involving 958 adults aged 60 or older, researchers found that taking a multivitamin-multimineral supplement for two years modestly slowed two molecular
signals for aging in the body known as “epigenetic clocks.” In the people who took the
supplement, the clocks’ rate of increase slowed by around 1.5 to two months per year, compared with the clocks of those who took a placebo. The findings were published on Monday in Nature Medicine.
73 . While the researchers saw an effect with two epigenetic clocks called
PCPhenoAge and PCGrimAge, three other epigenetic clocks included in the study showed no statistically significant change to their speed.
One of the study’s strengths is that the researchers carefully matched the characteristics of people in the vitamin group to those in the placebo group, says Zachary Clayton, an assistant
professor of medicine at the University of Colorado Anschutz, who was also not involved with the research. “ 74 ,” he says.
The study doesn’t take a person’s exact diet or physical activity during the two-year period into account. 75 . Still, in nutrition science, randomized clinical trials ofthis kind are
rare. They aren’t generally required to sell supplements like multivitamins, even if the makers claim specific health benefits.
A .Experts who were not involved in the new study urged caution.
B .But interestingly, a new study suggests that taking a daily multivitamin could slow biological aging.
C .Those factors can’t be ruled out as having an effect on biological aging, he adds.
D.However, the magnitude of the observed differences was modest, and their clinical significance remains uncertain.
E .In fact, recent surveys show that the popularity of multivitamins has been declining among health-conscious consumers.
F .Nevertheless, the magnitude of the observed differences was negligible, and their clinical significance is completely meaningless.

The confidence people place in science is frequently based not on what it really is, but on what people would like it to be. When I asked students at the beginning of the year 86 they would define science, many of them replied that it is an objective way of discovering
certainties about the world. But science cannot provide certainties. For example, most Americans trust science 87 it does not challenge their existing beliefs. To the question “When
science disagrees with the teachings of your religion, which one do you believe ” 58 percent of North Americans favor religion; 33 percent science; and 6 percent say “it depends”.
But doubt in science is a feature, not a bug. Indeed, science, when properly functioning,
questions 88 (accept) facts and leads to both new knowledge and new questions — not certainty. Doubt does not cultivate trust, nor does it help public understanding. So why should
people trust a process that seems to require a troublesome state of uncertainty without always providing solid solutions
As a historian of science, I would argue that it’s the responsibility of scientists and

smartphone repaired,表示“让手机被修理”。故从句中不再需要 it 作宾语,因此使用过去分词 repaired 作宾补。

67.推理判断题。根据文章标题“Guided Desert Adventure(沙漠探险指南)”可知,这是一个探险活动,而非表演;根据文章图片下第二段“You’ll start your tour by driving to a scenic spot on the top of a tall sand dune (沙丘) for a chance to take photos of the area. On top of a sand dune,
you’ll have the chance to slide down the side by sandboarding. From here, you’ll get ready for
hitting some dunes in a four-wheel drive vehicle. Next, you’ll hop on a quad bike and have time to drive around the desert in the open air. Finally, you’ll have a camel ride around a small part of the
desert.(您将开车前往一个高沙丘顶部的景点,有机会在该地区拍照。在沙丘的顶端,您将有机会通过滑板滑下。从这里开始,你将准备好乘坐四轮驱动汽车去打一些沙丘。接下来,你将跳上一辆四轮摩托车,有时间在露天的沙漠里开车。最后,你将在沙漠的一小部分骑骆
驼)”可知,旅行工具里没有提到地铁;观察图片可知,这是网上订购的,并非需要提前到买票,因此,之前参加过的人可能会评论“这很有趣,我享受其中的每一分钟。”故选 B。

本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了鬼屋景点帮助科学家了解恐惧对个体的心理影响,一项研究发现,在鬼屋景点里,身边有朋友可能会导致人更加紧张。另一项研究发现,当生理刺激“恰到好处”地平衡时,恐惧和快乐可以同时发生。
68 .细节理解题。根据第二段中“These attractions turn out to be good places to study fear. They help scientists understand the body’s response to fright and how we perceive some situations as
enjoyably thrilling and others as truly terrible. (事实证明,这些景点是研究恐惧的好地方。它们帮助科学家了解身体对恐惧的反应,以及我们如何将某些情况视为令人愉快的刺激,而另一些情况则是真正可怕的)”可知,研究鬼屋景点帮助科学家了解恐惧对个体的心理影响。故选A 项。
69.细节理解题。根据第三段中“Psychologist and study co-author Sarah Tashjian, who is now at the University of Melbourne, and her team conducted their research with 156 adults, who each
wore a wireless wrist sensor during their visit. The sensor measured skin responses linked to the
body’s reactions to stress and other situations. (目前在墨尔本大学工作的心理学家、研究报告的合著者 Sarah Tashjian和她的团队对 156 名成年人进行了研究,在参观期间他们每人都戴上了无线手腕传感器。传感器测量皮肤对压力和其他情况的反应)”可知,Sarah Tashjian 和她的团队通过使用无线手腕传感器对鬼屋体验进行了研究。故选 C 项。
70 .细节理解题。根据第四段中“Being with friends, Tashjian and her colleagues further found, increased physiological arousal during the experience, which was linked to stronger feelings of
fright. (Tashjian 和她的同事进一步发现,与朋友在一起时,生理上的刺激水平会增加,这与更强烈的恐惧感有关)”可知,Tashjian 和她的同事发现和朋友在一起会提高生理刺激水平。故选 A 项。
71 .细节理解题。根据最后一段中“The results suggest that fear and enjoyment can happen
together when physiological arousal is balanced “just right” . (结果表明,当生理刺激“恰到好处”地平衡时,恐惧和快乐可以同时发生)”可知,这项 2020 年的研究表明恐惧和快乐在一定条
件下可以共存。故选 D 项。

文章主要介绍了美国常见的复合维生素功效尚无定论,一项新研究发现它或可延缓生物衰老,但多位专家指出研究存在局限,呼吁谨慎看待该结论。
72 .上文“Multivitamins (复合维生素) are the most common dietary supplement in the U.S.
People take these pills for a variety of health reasons, but the science on what multivitamins may
do for your health is mixed, and none of them are approved by the U.S. Food and Drug
Administration. (复合维生素是美国最常见的膳食补充剂。人们服用这些药片是为了各种健康原因,但关于复合维生素对健康可能产生的作用的科学研究结果并不一致,而且它们均未获得美国食品药品监督管理局的批准。)”铺垫“复合维生素功效缺乏统一科学定论,也未获官方批准” 的负面背景,后文“In a randomized clinical trial involving 958 adults aged 60 or older (在一项涉及 958 名 60 岁及以上成年人的随机临床试验中)”直接展开一项关于复合维生素的新临床试验。B 选项“But interestingly, a new study suggests that taking a daily multivitamin could slow biological aging. (但有趣的是,一项新的研究表明,每天服用复合维生素可能会减缓生物衰老。)” 以 But转折,精准引出“每日服用复合维生素或可减缓生物衰老” 的核心研究结论,完美衔接背景与下文实验内容。
73 .下文“While the researchers saw an effect with two epigenetic clocks called PCPhenoAge and PCGrimAge, three other epigenetic clocks included in the study showed no statistically significant change to their speed. (虽然研究人员在名为 PCPhenoAge 和 PCGrimAge 的两个表观遗传时钟上看到了效果,但研究中包含的另外三个表观遗传时钟在速度上并未显示出统计学上的显著变化。)”讲的是仅两项衰老指标有改善,其余三项均无明显变化,说明研究结果存在局限。A 选项“Experts who were not involved in the new study urged caution. (未参与此次新研究的专家们呼吁谨慎对待。)”作为
