A
For those who’ve always wanted to walk the halls of Hogwarts or explore the shops of Diagon Alley (对角巷)，
Universal Orlando offers the next best thing. The theme park opened every Harry Potter fan’s dream place back in
2010.
For Potterheads everywhere, however, deciding when to make the trip to the Wizarding World of Harry Potter
is not easy. These tips will help you experience the best of the Wizarding World, whether you’re looking to save
money, avoid the busy season, or simply experience the most magical times of the year.
The cheapest times to visit Harry Potter’s world
The cheapest (and least busy) months to visit the Wizarding World of Harry Potter are January and most of
February, except the days surrounding the New Year and winter break. Other inexpensive times include the
beginning of March and most of September and October.
The best Harry Potter events at Universal
While they may not be the quietest times to explore Harry Potter’s world, Universal holds many events
throughout the year that fans won’t want to miss.
A Celebration of Harry Potter
For a weekend every January, Universal hosts A Celebration of Harry Potter. Guests (wearing their class robes,
no doubt) will join other diehard Potter fans for three days of exhibits, discussions and cast Q&A activities. For
anyone who really loves the books and the films, this may be one of the best times of the year to visit.
Christmas in the Wizarding World
Universal’s new additions to their holiday entertainment lineup make Hogwarts the perfect place to be around
Christmastime. Decorations add beauty to the shops of Diagon Alley and Hogsmeade, the Frog Choir sings
Christmas carols (颂歌)，and snow falls on Hogwarts as a festive show takes place in front of the castle.
Halloween in the Wizarding World
Lastly (and perhaps most surprisingly), Halloween season is also a good time for a magical visit to the
Wizarding World. Universal’s main Halloween event, Halloween Horror Nights, produces a special Harry Potter-
related surprise.
1. Which times costs most to visit Harry Potter’s world?
A. January and most of February.B. New Year and winter break.

It is in human nature to explore new things. To that end, many countries have been exploring space for many
decades, particularly the US, Russia, and countries in Europe.
President Xi Jinping praised the success of the Chang’e 5 mission (使命) in bringing back the country’s first
samples (样本) collected from the moon. The whole country is proud of this breakthrough. The Chang’e 5 mission
has achieved many significant breakthroughs, including China’s first lunar (月球的) surface sampling, first liftoff
from the moon and the first spacecraft with the ability to gather and meet in lunar orbit with samples to re-enter the
Earth s atmosphere.
The success of the Chang’e 5 mission marks a conclusion of China’s current lunar exploration project. The
successful re-entry and landing of the Chang’e 5 capsule (太空舱) have enabled China to obtain its first lunar
samples, marking a new start for lunar and planetary research. With this achievement, China sets a new milestone
in space exploration.
No matter how far China goes into space, it always stays true to its original mission-uncovering the secrets of
the universe and contributing to human’s peaceful use of space. China is a peace-loving country and will use its
achievements for promoting peace around the globe.
China views these efforts as part of the world’s lunar exploration. It chose a different landing site and is
promising to share its samples to enrich the planet’s knowledge. Some foreign scientists have shown particular
interest. The exploration is not for commercial purposes, but international scientific research. Human beings shall
explore the moon together, as it will finally need large projects requiring international cooperation. China will playa leadership role in the international scientific community.
4. What made Chinese people feel proud according to the passage?
A. Landing on the moon successfully. B. Gaining admission to exploring the moon.
C. Strengthening the ability to promote the peace. D. Bringing back first samples collected from the moon.
5. Which of the following can best describe the Chang’e 5 mission?
A. Horrible but romantic. B. Fearful but successful.
C. Challenging but rewarding. D. Dangerous but peaceful.
6. What is the text mainly about?
A. The original mission remains unchanged. B. Countries join together to explore the moon.
C. China takes pride in the achievements in space. D. China sets a new milestone in space exploration.
7. Where is this text most likely from?
A. A poster. B. A leaflet. C. A newspaper. D. A guidebook.
C
At university, when I told people I was studying for a history degree, the response was almost always the
same, “You want to be a teacher?” No, a journalist. “Oh. But you’re not majoring in communications?”
In the days when a university education was a privilege, perhaps there wasn’t the assumption that a degree had
to be a springboard directly into a career. Those days are long gone. Today, a degree is all but a necessity for the job
market, one that more than halves your chances of being unemployed. Still, that alone is no guarantee of a job—
and yet we’re paying more and more for one.
Given those costs, most of us want to maximize that investment — and that can lead to a plug-and-play type of
approach to higher education. Want to be a journalist? Study journalism, we’re told. A lawyer? Pursue pre-law. Not
totally sure? Go into STEM (Science, Technology, Engineer and Maths) — you can become an engineer or an IT
expert. And no matter what you do, forget the humanities, such as history, philosophy and languages.
It’s true that the humanities come with a higher risk of unemployment, but the risk is slighter than you would
imagine. For young people in the U.S. , the unemployment rate of those with humanities degrees is four percent,
just a little more than that of engineering degree holders. Lower salaries may not be caused by the degree itself
either. The gender pay gap persists in the humanities, whose graduates are more likely to be female. Is it any
wonder then that language teachers tend to make less than engineers?
According to LinkedIn’s research on the most sought-after job skills by employers for 2019, the ability to
communicate and get along with people, to understand what’s on other people’s minds, and to do full-strength
critical analysis were all valued and appreciated. It goes without saying that you can be an excellent communicator
and critical thinker without a humanities degree. And any good university education, not just one in English orpsychology, should sharpen these abilities further. But few courses of study are quite as heavy on reading, writing,
speaking and critical thinking as the humanities — whether that’s by debating other students in a seminar, writing a
thesis paper or analyzing poetry.
The whole question of whether a student should choose STEM versus the humanities might be misguided to
begin with. The headlines most of us see don’t help. Whatever a student pursues in university, it must be something
that they are not only good at, but interested in. Even if it means pursuing a “useless” degree — like one in
humanities.
8. Why are people paying more and more for a degree?
A. Because people need a degree to further their career.
B. Because university education is considered a privilege.
C. Because a degree is viewed as a must for landing a job.
D. Because their interest can be developed in university.
.
9 The author mentioned a plug-and-play type of approach to show ________.
A. a tip for choosing a major
B. the importance of higher education
C. a problem that exists among STEM graduates
D. the reason why people overlook the humanities
10. According to the author, what is the benefit of majoring in humanities?
A. A comparatively high salary after graduation.
B. Better chances of getting rid of gender prejudice.
C. A better communicative skill than science students.
D. More exposure to the training of language and thinking.
11. What is the author's attitude towards the pursuit of humanities?
A. Doubtful. B. Optimistic.
C. Objective. D. Concerned.
D
If you want to tell the history of the whole world, a history that does not privilege one part of humanity, you
cannot do it through texts alone, because only some of the world has ever had texts, while most of the world, for
most of the time, has not. Writing is one of humanity’s later achievements, and until fairly recently even many
literate (有文字的) societies recorded their concerns not only in writing but in things.
,
Ideally a history would bring together texts and objects and some chapters of this book are able to do just
that, but in many cases we simply can’t. The clearest example of this between literate and non-literate history isperhaps the first conflict, at Botany Bay, between Captain Cook’s voyage and the Australian Aboriginals. From the
English side, we have scientific reports and the captain’s record of that terrible day. From the Australian side, we
have only a wooden shield (盾) dropped by a man in flight after his first experience of gunshot. If we want to
reconstruct what was actually going on that day, the shield must be questioned and interpreted as deeply and strictly
as the written reports.
In addition to the problem of miscomprehension from both sides, there are victories accidentally or
deliberately twisted, especially when only the victors know how to write. Those who are on the losing side often
have only their things to tell their stories. The Caribbean Taino, the Australian Aboriginals, the African people of
Benin and the Incas, all of whom appear in this book, can speak to us now of their past achievements most
powerfully through the objects they made: a history told through things gives them back a voice. When we consider
contact (联系) between literate and non-literate societies such as these, all our first-hand accounts are necessarily
twisted, only one half of a dialogue. If we are to find the other half of that conversation, we have to read not just
the texts, but the objects.
12. What is the first paragraph mainly about?
A. How past events should be presented. B. What humanity is concerned about.
C. Whether facts speak louder than words. D. Why written language is reliable.
.
13 What does the author indicate by mentioning Captain Cook in paragraph 2?
A. His report was scientific. B. He represented the local people.
C. He ruled over Botany Bay. D. His record was one-sided.
14. What does the underlined word “conversation” in paragraph 3 refer to?
A. Problem. B. History. C. Voice. D. Society.
15. Which of the following books is the text most likely selected from?
A. How Maps Tell Stories of the World B. A Short History of Australia
C. A History of the World in 100 Objects D. How Art Works Tell Stories

项。
Many people think that positive thinking is mostly about keeping one's head in the sand and ignoring daily
problems, trying to look optimistic. In reality it has more to do with the way an individual talks to himself. Self-talk
is a constant stream of thoughts of a person, who is often unaware and uncertain of some events, phenomena,
people, or even the person himself.____16____Meanwhile, positive thinking can help to stop negative self-talks
and start to form a positive view on an issue. People who regularly practise positive thinking tend to solve problemsmore effectively. They are less exposed to stress caused by external factors. They tend to believe in themselves and
in what they do.
____17____People who think positively demonstrate increased life spans, lower rates of depression and
anxiety, better physical and psychological health, reduced risks of death from heart problems. Positive thinking also
contributes to one's ability to deal with problems and hardships.____18____For example, researchers have found
that in the case of a crisis accompanied by strong emotions, such as a natural disaster, positive thinking can provide
a sort of buffer against depression and anxiety. Resilient people who think positively tend to treat every problem as
a challenge, a chance for improvement of any kind, or as an opportunity for personal growth. Pessimists, on the
contrary, tend to perceive problems as a source of additional stress.____19____
In conclusion, positive thinking is a powerful and effective tool for dealing with hard times and improving the
quality of one's life. It doesn't have anything to do with ignorant optimism when an individual refuses to notice a
problem.____20____
Thinking in a positive, self-encouraging way brings about many benefits to one's physical and mental health.
A. It doesn't cause any severe emotional discomfort, either.
B. Negative self-talk damages self-confidence and decreases self-respect.
C. It helps one to remain clear-headed and confident in difficult situations.
.
D Positive thinking has several beneficial effects on the body and the mind.
E. As thinking changes, an individual's behaviour and habits change as well.
F. They often offer a real alternative to the common and regular way of thinking.
G. They often feel discouraged long before trying to solve the problem, even if small.

I keep a two-dollar bill in my wallet that was given to me by my mother when I was six years old. I still remember
the day when she pulled me into the living room and said, “You are brilliant in my mind, but if you fail once don’t
give up. Don’t fear failure. It is a way of getting us to try harder. You will succeed, I promise.”
She looked at me and continued, “I want you to carry this two-dollar bill for extra good luck.”
“Thanks mom,” I replied. “I will keep it close to me always.”
I am not superstitious (迷信的), but from that day on the bill goes with me wherever I go. I firmly believe that
luck would follow me everywhere.
Every morning I would get dressed and my two-dollar bill went into my pocket. My mother passed away when
I was 17 years old and I remember taking out my two-dollar bill. I held it in my hand for the longest time and knewthat she would be watching over me the rest of my life.
Each time I felt I had a crisis on my hands, I would reach for my two-dollar bill and set it on the table. I would
stare at it for several hours and could always come up with a solution.
When I applied for my first job, I was thirty years old and very shy. The thought of being interviewed for a job
was scary but I had to work. On my first interview, as I sat in the waiting room, I noticed there were five women
ahead of me. All of the women were younger and very well dressed. One of them looked perfect in her blue striped
suit with matching purse and shoes. I knew I was up against women better qualified by looking at the length of their
resumes (简历).

C
At university, when I told people I was studying for a history degree, the response was almost always the
same, “You want to be a teacher?” No, a journalist. “Oh. But you’re not majoring in communications?”
In the days when a university education was a privilege, perhaps there wasn’t the assumption that a degree had
to be a springboard directly into a career. Those days are long gone. Today, a degree is all but a necessity for the job
market, one that more than halves your chances of being unemployed. Still, that alone is no guarantee of a job—
and yet we’re paying more and more for one.
Given those costs, most of us want to maximize that investment — and that can lead to a plug-and-play type ofapproach to higher education. Want to be a journalist? Study journalism, we’re told. A lawyer? Pursue pre-law. Not
totally sure? Go into STEM (Science, Technology, Engineer and Maths) — you can become an engineer or an IT
expert. And no matter what you do, forget the humanities, such as history, philosophy and languages.
It’s true that the humanities come with a higher risk of unemployment, but the risk is slighter than you would
imagine. For young people in the U.S. , the unemployment rate of those with humanities degrees is four percent,
just a little more than that of engineering degree holders. Lower salaries may not be caused by the degree itself
either. The gender pay gap persists in the humanities, whose graduates are more likely to be female. Is it any
wonder then that language teachers tend to make less than engineers?
According to LinkedIn’s research on the most sought-after job skills by employers for 2019, the ability to
communicate and get along with people, to understand what’s on other people’s minds, and to do full-strength
critical analysis were all valued and appreciated. It goes without saying that you can be an excellent communicator
and critical thinker without a humanities degree. And any good university education, not just one in English or
psychology, should sharpen these abilities further. But few courses of study are quite as heavy on reading, writing,
speaking and critical thinking as the humanities — whether that’s by debating other students in a seminar, writing a
thesis paper or analyzing poetry.
The whole question of whether a student should choose STEM versus the humanities might be misguided to
begin with. The headlines most of us see don’t help. Whatever a student pursues in university, it must be something
that they are not only good at, but interested in. Even if it means pursuing a “useless” degree — like one in
humanities.
8. Why are people paying more and more for a degree?
A. Because people need a degree to further their career.
B. Because university education is considered a privilege.
C. Because a degree is viewed as a must for landing a job.
D. Because their interest can be developed in university.
9. The author mentioned a plug-and-play type of approach to show ________.
A. a tip for choosing a major
B. the importance of higher education
C. a problem that exists among STEM graduates
D. the reason why people overlook the humanities
10. According to the author, what is the benefit of majoring in humanities?
A. A comparatively high salary after graduation.
B. Better chances of getting rid of gender prejudice.C. A better communicative skill than science students.
D. More exposure to the training of language and thinking.
11. What is the author's attitude towards the pursuit of humanities?
A. Doubtful. B. Optimistic.
C. Objective. D. Concerned.
【答案】8. C 9. D 10. D 11. C
【解析】

and more for one.(如今，学位对就业市场来说几乎是一种必需品，它会使你失业的几率减半以上。尽管如
此，单凭这一点并不能保证找到一份工作，然而我们为学位付出的代价却越来越高)”可知，人们为学位付
出的代价却越来越高是因为学位被视为获得工作的必备条件。故选C项。

lead to a plug-and-play type of approach to higher education.(考虑到这些成本，我们大多数人都希望将投资最
大化——这就导致了一种即插即用的高等教育方式)”和“And no matter what you do, forget the humanities,
such as history, philosophy and languages.(不管你做什么，忘记了人文学科，比如历史、哲学和语言)”可知，

句“But few courses of study are quite as heavy on reading, writing, speaking and critical thinking as thehumanities — whether that’s by debating other students in a seminar, writing a thesis paper or analyzing poetry.
(但很少有课程像人文学科那样注重阅读、写作、口语和批判性思维——无论是在研讨会上与其他学生辩论、
写论文还是分析诗歌)”可知，作者在文中引用了科学数据客观介绍了学习人文学科的利与弊，作者对学习
人文学科的态度是客观的。故选C项。
D
If you want to tell the history of the whole world, a history that does not privilege one part of humanity, you
cannot do it through texts alone, because only some of the world has ever had texts, while most of the world, for
most of the time, has not. Writing is one of humanity’s later achievements, and until fairly recently even many
literate (有文字的) societies recorded their concerns not only in writing but in things.
Ideally a history would bring together texts and objects, and some chapters of this book are able to do just that,
but in many cases we simply can’t. The clearest example of this between literate and non-literate history is perhaps
the first conflict, at Botany Bay, between Captain Cook’s voyage and the Australian Aboriginals. From the English
side, we have scientific reports and the captain’s record of that terrible day. From the Australian side, we have only
a wooden shield (盾) dropped by a man in flight after his first experience of gunshot. If we want to reconstruct
what was actually going on that day, the shield must be questioned and interpreted as deeply and strictly as the
written reports.
In addition to the problem of miscomprehension from both sides, there are victories accidentally or
deliberately twisted, especially when only the victors know how to write. Those who are on the losing side often
have only their things to tell their stories. The Caribbean Taino, the Australian Aboriginals, the African people of
Benin and the Incas, all of whom appear in this book, can speak to us now of their past achievements most
powerfully through the objects they made: a history told through things gives them back a voice. When we consider
contact (联系) between literate and non-literate societies such as these, all our first-hand accounts are necessarily
twisted, only one half of a dialogue. If we are to find the other half of that conversation, we have to read not just
the texts, but the objects.
12. What is the first paragraph mainly about?
A. How past events should be presented. B. What humanity is concerned about.
C. Whether facts speak louder than words. D. Why written language is reliable.
13. What does the author indicate by mentioning Captain Cook in paragraph 2?
A. His report was scientific. B. He represented the local people.
C. He ruled over Botany Bay. D. His record was one-sided.
14. What does the underlined word “conversation” in paragraph 3 refer to?
A. Problem. B. History. C. Voice. D. Society.15. Which of the following books is the text most likely selected from?
A. How Maps Tell Stories of the World B. A Short History of Australia
C. A History of the World in 100 Objects D. How Art Works Tell Stories
【答案】12. A 13. D 14. B 15. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。本文讨论了仅仅依靠书面文本来讲述世界历史的局限性，并强调了将物品纳
入历史叙事以更好地理解无文字社会的重要性。
【12题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“If you want to tell the history of the whole world, a history that does not privilege
one part of humanity, you cannot do it through texts alone, because only some of the world has ever had texts, while
most of the world, for most of the time, has not. Writing is one of humanity’s later achievements, and until fairly
recently even many literate (有文字的) societies recorded their concerns not only in writing but in things. (如果你
想讲述整个世界的历史，一段不以人类某一部分为特权的历史，你不能仅仅通过文本来讲述，因为世界上
只有一部分人曾经有过文本，而世界上大多数人，在大多数时间里，都没有。写作是人类较晚的成就之一，
直到最近，甚至许多有文字的社会也不仅用文字，而且用物件来记录他们所关心的事情。)”可推知，第一
段主要讲述的是历史应该如何呈现给我们。故选A。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第二段首句“Ideally a history would bring together texts and objects, and some chapters
of this book are able to do just that, but in many cases we simply can’t. (理想情况下，历史应该将文本和物品结
合在一起，本书的某些章节能够做到这一点，但在许多情况下，我们根本做不到。)”可推断，作者认为历
史应该是文本和物品相结合的产物，但是很多情况下，我们做不到。再根据所举例子的下文“From the
English side, we have scientific reports and the captain’s record of that terrible day. From the Australian side, we
have only a wooden shield (盾) dropped by a man in flight after his first experience of gunshot. (在英国方面，我
们有科学报告和船长对那可怕的一天的记录。从澳大利亚方面来看，我们只有一个木制盾牌，这是一名男
子在第一次经历枪击后在飞行中扔下的。)”可知，作者举这个例子是为了说明船长的记录是片面的，只从
自己的角度描述了问题。故选D。
【14题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线单词上文“The Caribbean Taino, the Australian Aboriginals, the African people of Benin
and the Incas, all of whom appear in this book, can speak to us now of their past achievements most powerfully
through the objects they made: a history told through things gives them back a voice. When we consider contact (联
系) between literate and non-literate societies such as these, all our first-hand accounts are necessarily twisted, only
one half of a dialogue. (加勒比海的泰诺人、澳大利亚的土著人、贝宁的非洲人以及印加人，所有这些人都出现在这本书中，他们现在都可以通过他们制造的物品向我们讲述他们过去最强大的成就：通过物品讲述的
历史给了他们一个声音。当我们考虑诸如此类的有文化社会和无文化社会之间的接触时，我们所有的第一
手资料都必然是扭曲的，只有对话的一半。)”结合划线句“If we are to find the other half of that conversation,
we have to read not just the texts, but the objects. (如果我们要找到对话的另一半，我们不仅要读文本，还要读
物体。)”可知，我们对过去历史的了解，只是书写历史的人所想要让我们了解的历史，如果我们想要了解
历史的另一半，我们不仅仅要读文本也要读对象。所以conversation指的是“历史”。故选B。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段“If you want to tell the history of the whole world, a history that does not privilege
one part of humanity, you cannot do it through texts alone, because only some of the world has ever had texts, while
most of the world, for most of the time, has not.(如果你想讲述整个世界的历史，一段不以人类某一部分为特
权的历史，你不能仅仅通过文本来讲述，因为世界上只有一部分人的历史曾经被文字记录过，而世界上大
多数人，在大多数时间里，都没有。)”结合最后一段的“ If we are to find the other half of that conversation,
we have to read not just the texts, but the objects. (如果我们要找到对话的另一半，我们不仅要读文本，还要读
物体。)”可知，本文讲述仅仅依靠书面文本来讲述世界历史有局限性，想要更好的了解历史就要将文本和
物品结合在一起。从而推断文章最有可能选自《100件物品中的世界史》。故选C。

项。
Many people think that positive thinking is mostly about keeping one's head in the sand and ignoring daily
problems, trying to look optimistic. In reality it has more to do with the way an individual talks to himself. Self-talk
is a constant stream of thoughts of a person, who is often unaware and uncertain of some events, phenomena,
people, or even the person himself.____16____Meanwhile, positive thinking can help to stop negative self-talks
and start to form a positive view on an issue. People who regularly practise positive thinking tend to solve problems
more effectively. They are less exposed to stress caused by external factors. They tend to believe in themselves and
in what they do.
____17____People who think positively demonstrate increased life spans, lower rates of depression and
anxiety, better physical and psychological health, reduced risks of death from heart problems. Positive thinking also
contributes to one's ability to deal with problems and hardships.____18____For example, researchers have found
that in the case of a crisis accompanied by strong emotions, such as a natural disaster, positive thinking can providea sort of buffer against depression and anxiety. Resilient people who think positively tend to treat every problem as
a challenge, a chance for improvement of any kind, or as an opportunity for personal growth. Pessimists, on the
contrary, tend to perceive problems as a source of additional stress.____19____
In conclusion, positive thinking is a powerful and effective tool for dealing with hard times and improving the
quality of one's life. It doesn't have anything to do with ignorant optimism when an individual refuses to notice a
problem.____20____
Thinking in a positive, self-encouraging way brings about many benefits to one's physical and mental health.
A. It doesn't cause any severe emotional discomfort, either.
B. Negative self-talk damages self-confidence and decreases self-respect.
C. It helps one to remain clear-headed and confident in difficult situations.
D. Positive thinking has several beneficial effects on the body and the mind.
E. As thinking changes, an individual's behaviour and habits change as well.
F. They often offer a real alternative to the common and regular way of thinking.
G. They often feel discouraged long before trying to solve the problem, even if small.
【答案】16. B 17. D 18. C 19. G 20. A

【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了积极思考对人产生的各种益处，同时将积极思考者与悲观主义
者相比较，分析两种人的差异。积极思维是应对困难时期和提高个人生活质量的强大而有效的工具。
【16题详解】
根据上文“Self-talk is a constant stream of thoughts of a person, who is often unaware and uncertain of some
events, phenomena, people, or even the person himself.(自我对话是一个人持续不断的想法，他常常对一些事
件、现象、人，甚至是他自己都没有意识和不确定)”以及后文“Meanwhile, positive thinking can help to
stop negative self-talks and start to form a positive view on an issue.(同时，积极的思考可以帮助停止消极的自
我对话，开始形成对一个问题的积极的观点)”由此可知，上文对自我对话进行了定义，后文则提到了积极
的思考可以有助于停止消极的自我对话，可知本句是在说明消极的自我对话对人的不良影响。后文中
negative self-talks可对应到B选项中Negative self-talk。故B选项“消极的自言自语会损害自信，降低自
尊”符合语境，故选B。
【17题详解】
根据后文“People who think positively demonstrate increased life spans, lower rates of depression and anxiety,
better physical and psychological health, reduced risks of death from heart problems. Positive thinking also
contributes to one's ability to deal with problems and hardships.(积极思考的人寿命更长，抑郁和焦虑率更低，
身心更健康，死于心脏问题的风险更低。积极的思考也有助于一个人处理问题和困难的能力)”由此可知，后文提到了积极思考对人的益处，后文中People who think positively以及Positive thinking可对应到D选项
中Positive thinking。故D选项“积极思考对身心有几个有益的影响”符合语境，故选D。
【18题详解】
根据后文“For example, researchers have found that in the case of a crisis accompanied by strong emotions, such
as a natural disaster, positive thinking can provide a sort of buffer against depression and anxiety.(例如，研究人员
发现，当危机伴随着强烈的情绪时，比如自然灾害，积极的思考可以为抑郁和焦虑提供一种缓冲)”可知，
后文举出的例子说明了积极思考可以让一个人在面临危机时，保持冷静。故C选项“它帮助一个人在困难
的情况下保持头脑清醒和自信”符合语境，故选C。
【19题详解】
根据上文“Resilient people who think positively tend to treat every problem as a challenge, a chance for
improvement of any kind, or as an opportunity for personal growth. Pessimists, on the contrary, tend to perceive
problems as a source of additional stress.(积极思考的、有韧性的人倾向于把每一个问题都看作是一个挑战，
一个改进的机会，或者一个个人成长的机会。相反，悲观主义者倾向于将问题视为额外压力的来源)可知，
上文在将积极思考者与悲观主义者相比较，本句应承接上文，进一步解释说明悲观主义者在解决问题时一
些性格特点。上文Pessimists可对应到G选项中They。故G选项“他们常常在试图解决问题之前就感到气
馁，即使是很小的问题”符合语境，故选G。
【20题详解】
根据上文“In conclusion, positive thinking is a powerful and effective tool for dealing with hard times and
improving the quality of one's life. It doesn't have anything to do with ignorant optimism when an individual
refuses to notice a problem. (总之，积极思考是应对困难时期和提高个人生活质量的强大而有效的工具。当
一个人拒绝注意到一个问题时，它与无知的乐观主义没有任何关系)”可知，本句承接上文进一步说明一个
人拒绝注意到问题的影响，它与无知的乐观主义没有任何关系，也不会引起任何严重的情绪不适。故A选
项“它也不会引起任何严重的情绪不适”符合语境，故选A。

providing either the _____22_____ to carry on or one more reason to give up.

have one big nose!” I was _____27_____. I didn’t know what to say. I wanted to cry, but I managed a little laugh —

Every day from that point forward, I would look at myself in the mirror. All I could see was that big fat

______32______, I eventually grew ______33______ that thought. But it really took me twenty years. Even

47. 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。
I keep a two-dollar bill in my wallet that was given to me by my mother when I was six years old. I still remember
the day when she pulled me into the living room and said, “You are brilliant in my mind, but if you fail once don’t
give up. Don’t fear failure. It is a way of getting us to try harder. You will succeed, I promise.”
She looked at me and continued, “I want you to carry this two-dollar bill for extra good luck.”
“Thanks mom,” I replied. “I will keep it close to me always.”
I am not superstitious (迷信的), but from that day on the bill goes with me wherever I go. I firmly believe that
luck would follow me everywhere.
Every morning I would get dressed and my two-dollar bill went into my pocket. My mother passed away when
I was 17 years old and I remember taking out my two-dollar bill. I held it in my hand for the longest time and knew
that she would be watching over me the rest of my life.
Each time I felt I had a crisis on my hands, I would reach for my two-dollar bill and set it on the table. I would
stare at it for several hours and could always come up with a solution.
When I applied for my first job, I was thirty years old and very shy. The thought of being interviewed for a job
was scary but I had to work. On my first interview, as I sat in the waiting room, I noticed there were five women
ahead of me. All of the women were younger and very well dressed. One of them looked perfect in her blue striped
suit with matching purse and shoes. I knew I was up against women better qualified by looking at the length of their
resumes (简历).

【答案】Mrs. Martin, the office manager called me into her office. “What makes you feel you are qualified for
this job?” she asked. “I really need this job and there is nothing I cannot do,” I responded. She asked me a series of
questions and the interview was over. As I exited her office, I turned around and said, “Mrs. Martin, I know that I am
not qualified like your other applicants but please give me a chance. I learn quickly and can be a very productive
member of your team.” I thanked her and went home exhausted. Oh well, I thought tomorrow would be another
day.
Late that afternoon, while I was cooking, the telephone rang. It was from Mrs. Martin Gina. She said,
“you were not the most qualified applicant, but you have so much confidence in yourself that we decided to give
you a chance to prove yourself.” I screamed out loud, jumping all over the room in disbelief. I could hear Mrs.
Martin laughing in the background and suddenly I realized that Mrs. Martin was still on the line. “Thank you Mrs.
Martin, you will not regret this decision,” I said and hung up the phone.
