Courage is a huge theme in my life，a quality I constantly seek，appreciate，and
analyze.The root of"courage"is "cor，"the Latin word for heart.Originally，courage
meant"to speak one's mind by telling all one's heart."While courage is often associated with
heroism nowadays，I believe true courage lies in being open and honest about who we are
and how we feel.
I recently witnessed an example of true courage.During a mountain-climbing trip with my 15-
year-old daughter and some college students，I noticed her struggling to keep up with the
第4页，共2页group.Despite my suggestions to rest，she persisted until she couldn't breathe properly.
Panicked，I called out to the front for help，but there was no response，and we had no
cellphone signal.Fortunately，two students just came back to check out on us.They offered
assistance and calmed us down.As we continued at a slower pace，they shared their own
experiences，from starting out as beginners like my daughter to becoming consistently
among the first to reach the peak.
"You know，"one of them said，looking at my daughter，"I was just like you when I
started.But with practice and proper pace，you'll get there too."
"Yeah，don't let your lack of experience stop you，"the other added."It's okay to admit when
you're struggling or not feeling alright.In fact，it's important to speak up and ask for help
when you need it.That's how we improve and grow."
Reaching the mountain top was a huge relief for both my daughter and me.However，the two
students addressed the celebrating group directly，emphasizing the importance of staying
together in tough environments.Their words led the group to apologize to us for overlooking
our struggle.
I was totally amazed at their bravery，and my daughter learned that it's okay to be the least
experienced in a group.Courage，I've come to realize，has a ripple effect.Each time we
choose courage，we inspire those around us to be a little brave r and make the world a little
better.
24.Why does the author mention the original meaning of courage？ ______
A. To argue for the true essence of courage.
B. To question the common belief of courage.
C. To show the changing meaning of courage.
D. To compare different interpretations of courage.
25.What did the two students suggest the daughter do？ ______
A. Challenge her own limits.
B. Seek help whenever possible.
C. Keep to a suitable pace.
D. Stick with experienced climbers.
26.Which action in the mountain-climbing story is an example of true courage？ ______
A. The mother asked the girl to rest.
B. The girl tried hard not to fall behind.
C. The group celebrated the reach of the top.
D. The two students pointed out the group's fault.
27.What does the author intend to tell us？ ______
A. Kindness connects us all.
B. Being a beginner takes courage.
C. With courage，everyone can be perfect.
D. We don't have to be a hero to be brave.…

One day in 1995，a large，heavy middle-aged man
robbed two Pittsburgh banks in broad daylight.He didn't
wear a mask and he smiled at surveillance cameras before
walking out of each bank.Later that night，police arrested
a surprised McArthur Wheeler.When they showed him the
surveillance tapes，Wheeler stared in disbelief. "But I wore the juice，" he
mumbled.Apparently，Wheeler thought that rubbing lemon juice on his skin would make
him invisible to videotape cameras.After all，lemon juice is used as invisible ink so，as long
as he didn't come near a heat source，he should have been completely invisible.
The case caught the eye of the psychologist David Dunning at Cornell University，who
enlisted his graduate student，Justin Kruger，to see what was going on.They reasoned
that，while almost everyone holds favourable views of their abilities in various social and
intellectual fields，some people mistakenly assess their abilities as being much higher than
they actually are.This "illusion of confidence" is now called the "Dunning-Kruger effect"，
and describes the cognitive bias to inflate self-assessment.
To investigate this phenomenon in the lab，Dunning and Kruger designed some clever
experiments.In one study，they asked undergraduate students a series of questions about
grammar，logic and jokes，and then asked each student to estimate his or her score
overall，as well as their relative rankings compared to the other students.Interestingly，
students who scored the lowest in these cognitive tasks always overestimated how well they
did-by a lot.Students who scored in the bottom estimated that they had performed better than
two-thirds of the other students!
Sure，it's typical for people to overestimate their abilities.The problem is that when people
are incompetent，not only do they reach wrong conclusions and make unfortunate choices，
but also they are robbed of the ability to realize their mistakes.In a semester-long study of
college students，good students could better predict their performance on future exams given
feedback about their scores and rankings.However，the poorest performers showed no
recognition，despite clear and repeated feedback that they were doing badly.Instead of being
confused or thoughtful about their incorrect ways，incompetent people insist that their ways
are correct.As Charles Darwin wrote in The Descent of Man（1871）： "Ignorance more
frequently begets confidence than does knowledge."
Interestingly，really smart people also fail to accurately self-assess their abilities.As much as
D-and F-grade students overestimate their abilities，A-grade students underestimate
theirs.The difference is that competent people can and do adjust their self-assessment given
appropriate feedback，while incompetent individuals cannot.
28.Which of the following statements about the Dunning-Kruger effect is TRUE？ ______
A. The effect is true for everyone in daily life.
B. It suggests that most people lack cognitive abilities.
第6页，共2页C. Some people are overconfident about their abilities.
D. The conclusion is drawn based on a series of bank robberies.
29.What do the college students' behaviors mentioned in the experiments prove？ ______
A. Feedback plays a significant role in estimating one's ability.
B. Incompetent people have a rigid attitude towards their choice.
C. Good students can predict their future performance accurately.
D. People can't rely on their previous behavior to make adjustments.
30.The underlined word "begets" in Paragraph 4 can be replaced by " ______ ".
A. gives rise to B. takes advantage of
C. makes up for D. breaks away from
31.What can we infer from the passage？ ______
A. Real knowledge is knowing the extent of one's ignorance.
B. It is difficult for people to evaluate their real competence.
C. Illusion of confidence is the major source of people's failure.
D. Those with great abilities often have a low opinion of themselves.
D
Renewable energy sources can help combat climate change，but dietary choices also play a
significant role.Opting for plant-based diets or lab-grown food can reduce greenhouse gas
emissions from the food system.We highlight the potential of dietary changes and the
importance of providing choices instead of mandates （命令）.
Research shows that a global shift towards vegetarian（素食的） diets could cut emissions
from food system by over half.Even small changes towards plant-based diets can have a
meaningful impact.Substituting conventional food with lab-grown alternatives could prevent
1 degree of future warming.These findings demonstrate the power of dietary changes in
addressing climate challenges.
Dietary choices are influenced by factors like culture，religion，and economics.It is
unrealistic to expect everyone to become vegetarian immediately.Respecting individual
choices is crucial in promoting sustainable diets.By offering information and raising
awareness，individuals can make choices according to their needs and values while
contributing to collective efforts.
Transforming industrial food production is necessary，but individual choices are still
vital.Education and awareness campaigns can inform people about the environmental impact
of different dietary choices and empower them to make informed decisions.Combining
individual actions with systematic changes can create a powerful force for human health and
the planet，Rather than expecting immediate vegetarianism，acknowledging the impact of
small changes is important.Gradual shifts towards more sustainable dietary choices，like
reducing animal product consumption and increasing vegetable intake，can result in
significant environmental benefits when multiplied across populations.
In conclusion，addressing climate change requires multiple approaches，with dietary
choices playing a crucial role.Offering choices while recognizing the challenges associated…

58.It was nearly midnight by the time 18-year-old Amy Waldroop returned to her
grandmother's tiny house，and she was exhausted.After a full day's work at a flower shop，
she had put in another six hours waiting tables before heading home.This was her typical
第10页，共2页weekends.
Pushing the key into the lock，she quietly opened the door so as not to wake her younger
siblings.She stepped into the front room，and froze.The house was a mess：plates of half-
eaten food were scattered in front of the TV；clothes，shoes and exercise books were
everywhere.
Amy's eyes welled with tears."This is just way too much for me."she thought.Her worst fears
began to race through her mind.Two years before，her parents lost their lives in an
accident，leaving Amy and her siblings for their grandma-Helen who had spent half of her
life in a wheelchair.The life burden fell on Amy's shoulders，which was too much for a girl.
One day，walking across the school grounds，Amy found a table littered with university
brochures.She browsed through pictures of spacious campuses and happy kids-all of it
looking unachievable for her，given the current situation and financial conditions.But her
teacher gave her unexpected hope，saying"You could attend university for free.It would take
a scholarship，though，and for that you'd need much better grades."
During her final year of high school，Amy diligently attended classes，then went to work
after school，returned to her grandmother's house，cared for her sisters and brothers and
went through homework till the early hours of the morning，struggling for her dream
university.
One afternoon，she walked home from school，holding a sheet of paper tightly.It was a
letter from the University of California，informing her that she would be offered a
scholarship and was admitted to the university.It was what she'd longed for，a place where
