I was talking to a friend about plans for her preschooler Cathy. Their home language is English, but my
friend’s father is French, and I wondered if she would let Cathy attend the local French immersion (沉浸式)
kindergarten.
She surprised me by saying that her dad advised against doing that, saying, “You have a very bright little girl
who’s curious about everything. French is only one subject. You don’t need to make it the center of her education
for the important early years of school.”
Yes, there are many benefits of speaking more than one language, but that doesn’t mean it’s always a good
idea to make your kindergartener receive an immersion program.
If you look up “second language learning”, you’ll see much about the advantages of being bilingual (双语的)，
mostly written to advertise language schools and maps. But if you dig deeper, you’ll have trouble finding solid
research into the advantages of second language learning, other than in older age groups where it does have strong
cognitive (认知的) benefits.My clinical experience with kids is consistent with my friend’s father’s observation and with th finding of the
British Academy that second language learning can be great for kids, but isn’t always. I depends on a lot of
complex factors.
For some young children, immersion classes in French or other languages can make school more
interesting,enriching their lives and enlarging their sense of the world. Children who enter school with strong first
language and mathematical skills can enjoy learning another language, finding new ways of understanding and
thinking about what they have already known.
For others, these programs can be curiosity-crushing. I’ve worked with many very smart young kids who are
deeply frustrated at school because their scientific, technologica1, or mathematical interests far outperform their
ability to discuss their enthusiasm in a new language.
When looking for a school for your preschooler, consider their individual learning needs, strengths and
challenges,and look for what you think might be the best match.
.
4 Why did Cathy’s grandpa oppose her attending the local French immersion kindergarten?
A. It might hold back Cathy’s curiosity. B. Cathy was too small to learn well.
C. It might affect Cathy’s friendship. D. Cathy had no gift for languages.
5. What does the research reveal about seniors’ learning a second language?
A. It’s challenging. B. It’s beneficial.
C. It’s controversial. D. It’s energy-consuming.
6. What may the author advise parents to do when choosing a kindergarten?
A. Select the school closest to their home.
B. Make sure the teachers are native speakers.
C. Consider their children’s learningstyles and needs.
D. Focus on the quality of schools’ language immersion programs.
7. What is the text mainly about?
A. The benefits of early bilingual learning.
B. The suitable age to start learning a second language.
C. Best ways to prepare kids for language immersion programs.
D. “My” reflections on immersing preschools in foreign language programs.
C
Do you always think through possibilities before committing to even the smallest choices like what to wear,
which menu item to pick, and when to do house chores? If this sounds like you, you’re among many indecisive people
who struggle with those issues. But are decisive people better at making decisions than indecisive people? A recentstudy has cast light on that.
The starting point of the recent study into the differences between decisive and indecisive people was finding a
reliable way of distinguishing participants. The research team used the Action Control Scale, a yes or no questionnaire
about everyday choices and behavior, to reveal whether a person is action- or state-oriented.
Action-oriented people are more decisive and likely to take action. They are more flexible and likely to carry
out their intentions in the face of challenges. By contrast, state-oriented people focus on their emotional states. They
are more hesitant to commit to their choices, and abandon their commitments more frequently.
Researchers surveyed 723 people, from whom they chose the 60 most action-oriented and the 60 most state-
oriented to take part in the main experiments. The participants went through a set of cognitive tasks, with low-risk
choices. The team conducted a comparison of several cognitive processes between the two groups including evidence-
processing speed, decision caution, initial bias (how much the choice is influenced by known knowledge), and
sensitivity (how accurately you can judge the correctness of your choice). By examining these cognitive processes,
researchers aimed to gain insights into the decision-making abilities and tendencies of the two groups.
They found that across all the experiments, action - oriented people were more confident in their choices.
However, there were no divergences in correctness, speed, or sensitivity. Meanwhile, indecisive people were in no
way worse at making choices.
Being less or more confident of the choice that has been made cannot affect the outcome. It can, however,
influence future ones. State-oriented people are less confident of whether the choice is right, and it will possibly make
pursuing their goals a much greater challenge.
8. What’s the function of the Action Control Scale?
A. Comparing participants’ daily schedules.
B. Recording participants’ emotional changes.
C. Finding the reasons behind participants’ choices.
D. Telling decisive participants from indecisive ones.
9. What does the author intend to do in Paragraph 3?
A. Add some background information. B. Summarize the previous paragraphs.
C. Provide some advice for the readers. D. Introduce a new topic for discussion.
10. What does the underlined word “divergences” in Paragraph 5 mean?
A. Assignments. B. Distinctions. C. Connections. D. Comparisons.
11. What will be probably discussed in the following paragraph?
A. The correct way to face up to the challenges.
B. The benefits gained by state-oriented people.C. The influence of the confidence gap on the future.
D. The difference between the action-and state-oriented people.
D
Close your eyes and picture yourself walking in the town. You can probably daydream about the places you’d
go past. This ability to imagine such situations in our minds is thought to be crucial to humans’ ability to plan ahead
and has long been considered as a feature that distinguishes humans from animals. But a new study has found that
rats can think about objects and places that are not right in front of them.
Like humans, when rats experience places and events, specific neural activity patterns are activated in the
hippocampus, an area of the brain responsible for spatial memory. But as it was difficult to get rats to think, it was
impossible to confirm whether rats could voluntarily control this activity and scientists had struggled for long to
disclose it.
To read the rat’s mind, Chongxi Lai, a co-author of the study, along with colleagues, developed a system to
measure neural activity using a brain-machine interface (BMI). The BMI, measuring neural activity and translating
what it meant, produced a connection between the electric activity occurring in the rat’s hippocampus and the
animal’s position in a 360-degree virtual reality environment.
First, some rats were placed into the virtual reality environment and they were rewarded when they traveled
through this environment towards their goals by running on a treadmill (an exercise machine). Next, researchers
disconnected the treadmill so that the rats could still see the virtual reality environment, but their running had no
impact. By reproducing the brain activity they’d shown during the previous sessions, the rats could travel to reward
locations taking advantage of their own thoughts.
“Although it’s still unclear what the rat is experiencing while it’s traveling or how similar it is to what happens
in humans, the team has done a convincing job of showing rats can voluntarily reactivate mental maps of familiar
places,” said Shayna, a cognitive neuroscientist.
The research also shows that the BMI can be used to observe hippocampal activity, providing a novel system
for studying this important brain region. Because the BMI is increasingly used in prosthetics (the making of
artificial body parts), this new approach of measuring neural activity also opens up the possibility of designing
novel prosthetic devices based on the same principles.
12. What is the traditional view about imaging a familiar place in mind?
A. It is unique to humans. B. It takes efforts to develop.
C. It involves planning ahead. D. It often occurs during traveling.
13. What happened to rats after researchers disconnected the treadmill?
A. They had difficulty running freely.B. They demonstrated abnormal brain activity.
C. They could reach reward places using mental maps.
D. They were at a loss in the virtual reality environment.
14. What’s Shayna’s attitude towards the new study?
A. Concerned. B. Positive. C. Doubtful. D. Critical.
.
15 What does the author highlight about the BMI in the last paragraph?
A. Its design concept. B. Its research limitation.
C. Its operating principle. D. Its application potential.

阅读下面短文，选出最佳选项填在空白处。其中两项为多余选项。
Ever since I was a child, I’ve been frightened by the idea of disappointing people. ____16____ From
preschool through my master degree years I was always the first in my class. But obviously, I’m not a genius.
Sometimes, I brought home a nine out of ten grade and my parents would ask me where the other point had gone.
Of course, the explanation was simple: I’d made a mistake. But for a perfectionist, that’s a very dangerous
thought, which can cause a chain of abusive self-talks. After all, that mistake was so stupid. ____17____
What hides behind my perfectionism is the illusion (幻觉) of control, the idea that if I work hard and do my
best, I’ll be perfect and protected, ____18____ Everyone is allowed to make mistakes, except me; everything is a
competition, and anything I can’t win is a dead loss.
____19____ It can even make you physically sick with headaches, stomachaches, muscle cramps and so. on.
In some cases, it leads to self-harming behavior, such as eating disorders and addiction. The other dark side of
perfectionism is that you become unable to truly appreciate your success — you only focus on what you could’ve
done better.
Despite the problems, perfectionism has allowed me to complete a lot and become who I am today. “To see
perfectionism as a uniquely negative thing is actually to deny a part of yourself,” said the perfectionism coach
Yasmina Hajoui. ____20____ But that desire needs to be balanced and come from a healthy place.
A. Perfectionism is a survival mechanism.
B. There’s nothing wrong with wanting to do things well.
C. The problem is that perfectionism brings more than stress.
D. I should have studied more, worked harder and focused better.
E. In perfectionism, we tend to believe that only our achievements define us.
F. And if something isn’t perfect, that means it’s my fault and that I’m awful.
G. My solution to that anxiety was to achieve perfectionism-and mostly, it worked.第三部分 英语知识运用（共四节，满分45分）

school for kids in need and to fill the form of your vacation activities and bring it to school, too.”
The tasks about the shirt and the pencils were ____23____ while the form required more effort. Later, I saw
she wanted me to purchase a green shirt, and the pencils were ____24____. But the form was still there,
____25____. I had three specific requests; ____26____, she’d left out the most important one. The night before,
we had discussed the ____27____ of leaving the task unfinished: She wouldn’t ____28____ the sports team she
wanted to join. She was so ____29____ that she shed tears and promised to take all the assigned tasks seriously in
____30____.
It’s normal for her to ____31____ the tasks. Research finds when people are required to do multiple tasks,
most people do the easy ones first and leave the hard stuff for later. Psychologists call this ____32____ “the
smaller tasks trap”. Looking back, I should have assessed my priorities and only asked my daughter to
____33____ the form. The things about the shirt and the pencils could be done on another day.
Don’t create long task ____34____ for other people. Too many requests can lead to fewer getting done. Do

When I was young, I always dreamed of playing the piano and giving performances to a large audience in a
concert hall. However, I struggled to understand the musical notes and the theory. Despite my parents’ encouragement
and offer of piano lessons, I pretended not to be interested, too afraid to try.
Many years passed until one day, at 25 years old, I heard that a new piano studio had opened in my neighborhood.
The teacher was recruiting (招收) new students. My childhood dream came flooding back.
I remembered I had initially feared becoming a teacher after graduation. However, I overcame those doubts. I
refused to let fear hold me back any longer, so I walked into the studio.
The teacher, Deb, welcomed me warmly. I was relieved to find we were contemporaries (同时代的人) and
expressed my desire to play the works of Bach and Beethoven if I could overcome my fear. Deb understood and
seemed sincere, so I signed up for 3 months of classes. Still doubtful about my commitment, I bought a small, tabletop
electric organ to practice with at home. It wasn’t the same as a real piano, but enabled me to learn some basics.
Week by week, I attended lessons in Deb’s studio. I often passed young students on their way out from their
lessons before mine. One day, noticing the textbooks in my bag, a child stopped me and asked, “Where’s your boy?”
After some hesitation, I finally answered I was the student. The children then welcomed me and I sat in the studio
and listened to a piece a child was working on.
Soon, I gained confidence and upgraded to a full-size piano at home for daily practice. After three rewarding
years of lessons with Deb, she announced it was time for me and other students to prepare for a recital (钢琴演奏
会) on stage. I was thrilled at the chance to finally fulfill my childhood dream, yet also anxious at the thought of
performing before the audience. But Deb believed in me. “Look how far you’ve come,” she encouraged. “It’s time
to share your gift with others.”
Paragraph 1:
I shook my head and told her, “No, thanks.”
