The Day the Lights Went Out
On a hot and wet summer day, Nura and her dad found a place to cool off at the city museum. Suddenly the
lights blinked (闪烁) off and on. With a final pop, the lights went out completely, leaving the room black.
“Dad, what’s going on?” Nura called out loudly.
“I’m not sure, but we’ll wait and see if the lights come back on,” Dad said calmly. In a moment, a museum
worker waved the flashlight (手电筒) at them and said, “There’s a power cut across the city, so we have to close the
museum. I’ll walk you to the gate.”
Nura and her dad stopped at their favorite shop for ice cream. When Nura’s dad tried to pay, the shop owner
waved his hand. “Forget about it,” he said. “It will all be soup soon, anyway!”
After a long, hot walk, Nura and her dad arrived home to find some of their neighbors outside their flats.
Everyone shared ice water, talking and laughing together about the heat.
“I can’t stand it in my room,” Mrs. Fong said, fanning herself with a newspaper. Another neighbor nodded.
Nura recognized him as the man who lived in the flat above hers.
A woman who lived downstairs was standing in the doorway. “If the power doesn’t come on soon, I’ll have to
throw all the food away.” she said.
“I have some meat in the fridge, too,” said Nura’s dad. “It would be nice to use the grill (烧烤架) to cook
before it goes bad.”
“I’ll see what I have,” the woman in the doorway said. “I’ll make sure to bring enough for everyone.”
That evening, Nura learned that the man from upstairs was named Sergey. The downstairs woman was Rachel.
As they finished their dinner, night fell over the city. For the first time in Nura’s life, their street became
completely dark. Stars blinked overhead. She’d never seen such a sight.The night air was thick and hot, but Nura didn’t mind anymore. She had enjoyed free ice cream, and she had
shared a dinner with her neighbors. She smiled to herself and continued to watch the stars.

CAre you tired of making so many decisions every day? People may be faced with up to 35,000 choices and a
huge number of options (可选择的事物) per day. When tired of decision making, people may depend on fate (命
运)—roll a dice or simply flip a coin.
Shall we make choices at random ( 随 机 )? I came to think about the benefits of random decision making
when watching a TV show last night. Its main character Sheldon used the dice to randomly order food and drinks in
a restaurant. He did this to free up his mind to consider some more important problems. However, his friends
question the method’s success. Indeed, this random restaurant order including a large drink was too much for him.
Sheldon finally realized that the random result could be improved by reducing options to leave out large drinks.
This example suggests that random decision making may not always work well and it’s necessary to reduce the
options before rolling a dice in some situations.
In some unimportant decision situations, randomisers make it easier to decide. But how do dice work in more
important decision situations? It’s hard to accept the idea of completely depending on a dice. However, this doesn’t
mean that dice or coins can’t be of any help at all.
Let me borrow another example from Sheldon. He couldn’t make up his mind when choosing a new TV set
from two. His friend Amy asked him to flip a coin. Rather than blindly following the result, however, she suggested
checking his emotional reaction. Did he experience happiness or disappointment when faced with the coin’s result?
Sheldon’s reaction could be useful to find out which one he truly preferred.
Recently, scientists studied this decision method and found that flipping a coin led people to imagine the two
different results more clearly, which resulted in a stronger emotional reaction, and then they recognised hidden
preferences and made decisions more easily.
A related study further proved that randomisers simplify the choice process. When using dice, people were less
likely to look for additional but unnecessary information about the different options. This helped to speed up their
choices.
Taken together, recent research shows surprising benefits of flipping coins and rolling dice as long as people
don’t let the results control their choices. Using them but keeping the freedom to be different from the results can
speed up the decision process and help solve decision problems.
27. The first example of Sheldon shows that random decision making .
A. is always effective
B. helps make a good order
C. may work better with fewer options
D. can offer more solutions to important problems
28. The writer probably agrees that .A. people should not roll dice or flip coins in important situations
B. people will make better choices when experiencing happiness
C. dice can speed up decision process with unnecessary information
D. reaction to the result of the randomiser may show one’s true preference
29. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A. Follow Your Heart or Your Head?
B. Should You Let the Dice Decide?
C. Listen to Friends, or Roll a Dice ?
D. How Do You Make a Wise Decision?
【答案】27. C 28. D 29. B
【解析】
【分析】本文讨论了通过掷骰子或者投硬币的方式来随机做决定的利与弊。

Most of us feel younger or older than we really are. This “subjective age” is simply based on the way we feel
,
inside. The number of years that have passed since you first entered the world is an unchangeable fact but
everyday experiences suggest that we often don’t experience ageing the same way.
Scientists find that “subjective age” is the key to understanding why some people appear to be energetic as
they age—while others do not. What’s more, various studies have shown that your subjective age can predict
important health outcomes. In some real ways, you really are only as old as you feel.One interesting study has discovered the way our subjective age interacts with our personality. It is now well-
accepted that people tend to become less open to new experiences while ageing. However, such personality changes
are less pronounced in people with a younger heart and more noticeable in people with older subjective age.
Moreover, people with younger subjective ages become more careful—good changes that come with normal
ageing, thus making fewer mistakes. On the other hand, some studies suggest that feeling between 8 and 13 years
older than your actual age results in an 18-25% greater risk of death and disease, while feeling younger means
better physical health and less of a chance of being hospitalized. But the connection between health and subjective
age almost certainly acts in both directions. If you feel upset and physically weak, you are likely to feel older. The
result could be a vicious cycle (恶性循环). In this way, the effect of subjective age on health is comparable or
stronger than that of actual age.
With these in mind, many scientists are trying to discover reasons that may shape this process. When do we
start to feel that our minds and bodies are operating on different timescales? And why does it happen?
One study found that most children and teenagers feel older than they really are. But this changes at around
26, when 70% would prefer to be younger. Some researchers argue that a lower subjective age is a form of self-
defense, protecting us from negative age stereotypes (消极的年龄刻板印象) in different areas of life, such as work
and health. Believing “I may be 65 but I only feel 50” would mean you are less worried about your performance at
work, for example. This thinking helps people distance themselves from the society’s sad view of ageing and gives
us a hopeful view of the future.
With these findings, it is possible that in the future, science might be able to reduce people’s subjective age
and improve their health as a result. In the meantime, these findings can give us a clearer view of the way our own
brains and bodies weather the passing of time. No matter how old you really are, it’s worth questioning whether any
of those limitations are coming from within.
30. According to the passage, subjective age .
A. will not easily change when you get older
B. is simply based on how others think of you
C. refers to the number of years you have lived
D. results from your personal experience of ageing
31. What does the underlined word “pronounced” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Obvious B. Important C. Beneficial D. Limited
32. What can we learn from the passage?
A. People with higher subjective age are healthier.
B. More people will have higher subjective age after 26.C. Actual age has a stronger effect on people’s health condition.
D. A lower subjective age may free us from the society’s sad view of ageing.
33. The writer believes that .
A. the age we feel is important to us
B. subjective age is too good to be true
C. future science will prevent us from getting old
D. there are many unknown areas hidden in our brains
【答案】30. D 31. A 32. D 33. A
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。讲述的是心理年龄和生理年龄的关系，以及哪个对健康更重要的话题。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“subjective age” is simply based on the way we feel inside.”可知“心理年龄”仅仅是基
于我们内心的感觉。故选D。
【31题详解】
词句猜测题。根据“more noticeable in people with older subjective age.”可知人们随着年龄的增长，往往对新
体验的态度不那么开放，心理年龄较大的人在这方面更明显。与其相比较的是“less pronounced in people
with a younger heart”可知在心态年轻的人中，这种情况不那么明显。由此推断pronounced 和“noticeable”
意思相近，意为“明显的”，故选A。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Believing “I may be 65 but I only feel 50” …This thinking helps people distance
themselves from the society’s sad view of ageing and gives us a hopeful view of the future.”可知“觉得自己心理年
的
龄比生理年龄小”这种想法帮助人们远离社会对老龄化 悲观看法，并给我们一个对未来充满希望的看
法。故选D。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“No matter how old you really are, it’s worth questioning whether any of those
limitations are coming from within.”可知不管你实际年龄有多大，我们感觉的年龄对我们很重要，我们应该
质疑诸多条条框框的限制是否来自自己的内心。故选A。
四、阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。
One of the problems harming our planet is the number of things we throw away. Rubbish of all kinds is piling
up in landfill and polluting our rivers and oceans. A more recent addition to the list of things we throw away is e-
waste—electronic items ( 物 品 ) that are broken and not recycled. Now solutions are being found to give thiswaste a new life.
Many millions of tons of televisions, phones, and other electronic products are thrown away each year, partly
because it’s cheaper to replace them than to fix them, but also because we don’t have enough skills to repair them.
A UN report says 50 million tons of e-waste is produced every year, and it will be more than double to 110 million
tons by 2050. That makes it the fastest growing waste in the world.
However, repair events and clubs are getting popular nowadays. That could be part of a solution to the
increasingly terrible e-waste problem. The BBC visited a Restart Project in London, which is one of many found
around the world. One of its volunteers, Francesco Calo, said that “the purpose of the project is to reduce waste,
and help people who cannot afford to repair them.”
As there are many valuable metals (金属) in electrical items, another idea is e-waste mining (矿). An
experiment at the University of New South Wales involves taking these materials from electronic products. It’s
thought that doing this could be more likely to make money than traditional mining. With phones typically having
as many as 60 elements (成分), this could be part of the solution to our desire for new technology.
These projects make total sense—collections of e-waste for recycling are “decreasing” according to Ruediger
Kuehr, of the United Nations University. And in countries with no related law, much of it just gets thrown away.
However, if the government decides to be involved, there will be some effective methods to deal with e-waste. Take
the European Union as an example. It is now trying to solve the problem by insisting companies have to make
products longer-lasting and will have to supply spare parts for machines for up to 10 years.
34. What is e-waste?
__________________________________________________________________
35. How much e-waste is produced every year according to a UN report?
__________________________________________________________________
36. What’s the purpose of the Restart Project in London?

【答案】例文：
Possible version
When I was in Grade 4, I didn’t like being with my classmates. Instead, I preferred reading books alone.
When I heard my classmates call me “nerdy”, it hurt me a lot. I had many conversations with my parents and
teachers. Then I came to realize that it was OK to be different and that I didn’t need to be like others. But I did try
something new to fit in: I began to share what I read with my classmates. I even join their games sometimes, which
has helped me make new friends.
We are all different. Although I should accept myself for who I am, I can also do something to improve, which
will help me become a better and happier “ME”!
