I used to get a film camera as a present when I was in my early teens. When I got it, I
immediately got on my bike and rode over to Wimbledon Common to take pictures of trees and
wildlife that I would only have for myself. All day, I was not in. On my way home I spotted a
tree lit up by street lighting and tried to capture its splendor. Rushing home, I popped the spent
film in a special little envelope and sent it off to a photography store, desperate to see how it
came out. I took many photos then and loved the fact that when you processed your film you
got back colour photos which froze the precious moments, gently encouraging the hobby and
the payments for processing.
As I grew into adulthood, that simple, deep happiness gradually faded away. One weekend
when I was busy answering the work calls, my eyes caught a box in the corner of the room. I
suddenly felt a sense of sadness. The stress growing over these years had pushed the camera
from beside my pillow to the box in the corner. I thought I needed a change.
I took out the camera and dusted it down. It was a great joy that it still worked. I bought
new film and took the camera everywhere I went. Now it is always on hand to accompany me
on journeys, allowing me time to myself. Even if the day is full and busy, I can seize some
moments for myself to take photos, to observe the world around me.
The wall of my room now holds all my camera equipment on display, along with photos
I’ve taken. To me, the room represents how I’ve found happiness: by reconnecting to the
younger part of myself I laid aside, by allowing room in my life for pleasure to exist, and by
creating an environment that allows opportunities for delight.
24. What did the author think of taking photos as a young boy?
A. Inspiring and practical. B. Tiring yet delightful.
高三英语 第 4 页 共 11 页

A. He wanted to focus on his work.

C. He attempted to behave like an adult.
D. He was faced with increasing pressure.
26. What did the author get from picking up his hobby?
A. Much enjoyment in the daily routine. B. New journeys in the wild.

With friends and family in attendance, residents of Parkfield House Nursing Home
celebrated the completion of a £10,000 project with a demonstration of their work.
For the past year a group, known as the Parkfield Peckers, have worked closely with
artists, Glebe Primary School and creative ageing charity Equal Arts as they explored the
history of the area and those who’ve lived at the 19th Century home.
Hannah Wood from charity Equal Arts said: “The exhibition at Uxbridge Civic Centre was
really the icing on the cake! Going into the project, there was so much enthusiasm from the
group to explore the heritage of the home. So many have their roots in the area and we were
keen to capture and share their knowledge in creative ways.”
There’s been a mixture of creativity with illustration, photography, portraiture, music and
story-telling as the group took part in weekly artist-led workshops and linked up with
schoolchildren to share ideas.
Glendeen Quow, manager of the Canford Healthcare-run Home, is in no doubt about the
project’s benefit to residents, staff and the home. She said: “It’s been a busy year and we have
all loved every minute of it. It’s been a privilege to learn about our fascinating heritage and a
joy to see our residents grow in confidence each week as they were introduced to the different
workshops and artists. We have enjoyed strengthening our relationships with the local
community, especially with the staff and children at Glebe Primary School.”
Clare Sheldon, who provides pastoral (牧师的) support at Glebe Primary School, said:
“The children have been proud to be a part of this project and connect with the Parkfield
residents. It’s been great for them to have experience in talking to and sharing with older
people, it gives them a stronger sense of understanding and compassion. This project has been a
高三英语 第 5 页 共 11 页
{#{QQABCYgAogiAAhBAAQgCQwmSCEAQkBACAAoGQAAAMAABgRFABAA=}#}great way of exploring their own emotions and identity and we look forward to continuing our
friendship with Parkfield.”
28. What does the underlined sentence mean?
A. The exhibition at Uxbridge Civic Centre matters most in this project.
B. The exhibition can have a greatly positive influence on the project.
C. The exhibition focuses on conveying artists’ creativity.
D. The exhibition aims to show different kinds of cakes.
29. What can’t you appreciate in weekly artist-led workshops?
A. Paintings. B. Statues. C. Fancy songs. D. Touching stories.
30. What can we learn about the project, according to the passage?
A. It’s been organized by Glebe Primary School and Parkfield House Nursing Home.
B. Residents can appreciate distinct works of art in workshops monthly.
C. It conveys the significance of strengthening relationships with the local community.
D. Participants can have a better understanding of fascinating culture in their area.
31. What is Glendeen Quow’s attitude towards the project?
A. Neutral. B. Skeptical. C. Indifferent. D. Favorable.
D
Long-term pain may not be an inevitable consequence of bad posture, but the notion that
“good” posture is beneficial isn’t completely ill-founded. Certain postures can lift your spirits.
An awareness of a link between our body and our emotions goes back to the 19th century,
when philosopher William James suggested that we don’t laugh because we are happy, but
rather we are happy because we laugh.
This idea is now known as “embodied cognition”, where the body influences our thoughts.
For instance, when you meet a loved one, your heartbeat may increase and you might feel their
skin against your own as you embrace. The brain, which is constantly assessing changes to
information from the outside world and from our internal body, combines this new data and
generates the appropriate emotion. Only then do we consciously sense the feeling of love, or
joy.
Several experiments support this idea, for instance, studies by Elizabeth Broadbent at the
University of Auckland, New Zealand. Her team randomly split people without depression into
two groups, using physiotherapy tape to strap their back into either a bent or upright seated
position. The participants then gave a speech. Afterwards, the upright group not only reported a
more positive mood, but were less stressed as measured by blood pressure.
In another experiment, students were initially shown positive and negative words and
asked how well each word described them. They were then guided into walking in a style that
resembled that of someone who was unhappy or extremely happy.
At the end of the study, the participants were given a surprise test—to remember as many
高三英语 第 6 页 共 11 页
{#{QQABCYgAogiAAhBAAQgCQwmSCEAQkBACAAoGQAAAMAABgRFABAA=}#}words from the start of the study as possible. Participants recalled more negative words when
walking in a style that resembled individuals who are sad than they did when walking with a
happier gait (步态). The researchers suggest that the walking style may have triggered a change
in emotional state, which then affected memory recall.
32. What was the relationship between body and emotions discovered in the 19th century?
A. We are happy, so we laugh. B. The posture of laugh can make us happy.
C. We feel happy first, then we laugh. D. We don’t laugh until we are truly happy.
33. What might not happen when a participant in the upright group gave a speech?
A. He/she gave a speech using a happy tone.
B. His/her speech made the audience feel uncomfortable.
C. His/her blood pressure dropped.
D. He/she felt much more confident in the process.
34. Which of the following words may not be given to the participants in the second
experiment?
A. Extraordinary. B. Brilliant. C. Middle. D. Down.
35. What does the text mainly talk about?
A. Changing your posture to change your mood. B. Crying when you feel like it.
C. Exercising contributes to health. D. Being happy if you want to.

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
“Pick up the pace!” said Amy’s husband. “But I can’t!” Amy said, her heart beating
quickly inside. “I can’t go any faster!” Her husband encouraged her. “Yes, you can! You’re
making progress every day.”
To help Amy stay healthy, her husband had been running with her for over two years.
Several years ago, Amy could barely walk down the stairs of her apartment building due to
fatness caused by eating disorders. She realized the problem after a failed job interview and
began walking to improve her ability to move. At first, she could walk for only 15 minutes at a
time. But she pushed herself every day, walking 5 minutes longer than she did the day before
until she walked for an hour and eventually two. For three years, Amy kept her walking habit,
slowly and painstakingly building her body shape. Then she changed her walking shoes to
running shoes about two years ago and became an excellent runner.
In March 2001, an advertisement invited people to nominate (提名) an ordinary person
who inspired them to bring the Olympic flame to Salt Lake City as torch bearers or support
runners. (Support runners serve as “guardians of the flame” and run with torch bearers along
the journey.)
Amy’s experiences touched her husband, so he nominated her to be a torch bearer. The
possibility to be selected was low, but Amy wanted to try.
Running taught Amy the importance of training for a race. She pictured herself running a
race and crossing the finish line. For months, she ran through her neighborhood carrying a
broken-off broom handle, feeling the weight of the torch. She waved at her neighbors,
pretending they were cheering crowds. She also printed a picture of a torch bearer wearing the
white uniform, replaced the face with a picture of hers, and put it onto her refrigerator door.
Every day, Amy imagined herself as a torch bearer. She was training for a historic running
event. On September 26th, while on her daily run through her neighborhood, an express
package arrived.
注意：
1.续写的词数应为150左右；
