Remember your first ever day of school: how you straightened out your school clothes, made sure your mom
prepared your favorite lunch and your backpack? Do you remember your first backpack? Mine was red with
Mickey Mouse and it carried all of my primary school books. Years later, I still remember it as a sign of happy
school days and childhood. Unluckily, years fly by and it’s time for exams and preparing for college. But someseniors find a fun way to hold onto childhood a little longer by wearing childish backpacks to school. This senior
backpack challenge quickly become a hit on TikTok.
Usually, a lot of teenagers cannot wait to grow up; they long for independence and want to appear grown-up.
But things seem to be changing, as a lot of high school seniors are dropping the cool kid look and choosing a
childish style. As a lot of students are heading back to school, most of them are shopping for school supplies and
new backpacks to carry them in. Instead of fashionable ones, they are choosing the ones showing their favorite
childhood characters: Backyardigans, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Spider-Man — you name it.
This trend is taking the internet by storm. A quick search of “seniorbackpacks” shows a lot of colorful and fun
small-sized bags. Seniors are showing off their new backpacks on TikTok, making commentators(评论者)think of
their school days and wish they would have kept their SpongeBob or Disney Princess backpack. A few
commentators note that this trend isn’t new, and a lot of seniors have been wearing childish backpacks for years.
Only in recent years has this become a trend.

whoever had the same sweater or same shoes would become best friends. Now, years later, seeing someone wearing
a backpack with the same cartoon characters is bringing that feeling back to us.

C
If a stranger knocked on your door asking for using your phone, would you help? How about lending them
five dollars for the bus, if they said they’d return and pay you back?
Nowadays, many people find it hard to trust strangers. A recent study found that our ability to trust strangers
may be more than just a social or psychological characteristic - it could be rooted in our DNA. This is important, as
it turns out that trusting people might actually live longer and healthier lives compared to more skeptical (怀疑的)
people.
Two main theories have appeared to explain why some people are more trusting than others. One suggests
trust is a stable characteristic shaped by early life experiences. The other thinks it’s influenced by a person’s
ongoing evaluation of the social environment. We can easily imagine that the answer to the question “Would you
say that most people can be trusted?” would depend on whether you’d been robbed the day before or if you’d had
your missing wallet returned.
This is where the recent research comes in. A professor of Lund University, Edgerton and his coworkers have
been doing research about trust. In their most recent study, involving 33, 882 Danish blood donors, they found a
single gene (基因) - PLPP4, strongly associated with the personality of trusting others, and that the PLPNP4 gene
explained 6% of the difference in social trust within the study population. If you take two people who have similar
education and life experiences, this gene alone could account for 6% of the difference in how much they trust
others.
They believe that the PLPP4 gene may somehow soften our “fight-or-flight” survival response. If our fight-or-
flight system is less strong when we meet new people, it makes sense that trusting others could have huge health
benefits. Indeed, if trusting others acts as something against stress, it may lower the risk of cardiovascular (心血管
的
) disease.
As people continue to uncover the mysteries of trust, one thing is clear: understanding its genetic roots may
hold the key to developing healthier communities in the world.
8. What might affect people’s trust levels according to the two main theories?
A. Childhood habits. B. Personal abilities.
C. Social experiences. D. Communication skills.
9. What does the recent study focus on?
A. The mental cause of trust. B. The ways to develop survival ability.C. The characteristics of different genes. D. The connection between trust and a gene.
10. What does the passage say about trusting others?
A. It could bring health benefits. B. It reduces the strong stress in work.
C. It helps to develop the world faster. D. It causes quicker survival response.
11. What might be the best title for the passage?
A. A Gene Influences How Trusting You Are B. Experiences Make You Grow Dependable
C. A Link Between Biology and Social Science D. Theories That Explain Why You Are Trusted
【答案】8. C 9. D 10. A 11. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。研究发现,我们信任陌生人可能不仅仅是一种社会或心理特征,它可能根植
于我们的DNA。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“The other thinks it’s influenced by a person’s ongoing evaluation of the social
environment. We can easily imagine that the answer to the question “Would you say that most people can be
trusted?” would depend on whether you’d been robbed the day before or if you’d had your missing wallet returned.
(另一种观点认为,这是受到一个人对社会环境的持续评估的影响。我们可以很容易地想象,对于“你认为
大多数人都是可以信任的吗?”这取决于你前一天是否被抢劫过,或者你丢失的钱包是否被找回来了.)”
可知,人们的社会经历会影响他们对他人的信任程度。故选C。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“A recent study found that our ability to trust strangers may be more than just a social
or psychological characteristic - it could be rooted in our DNA. (最近的一项研究发现,我们信任陌生人的能力
可能不仅仅是一种社会或心理特征——它可能根植于我们的DNA。)”和第四段“In their most recent study,
involving 33, 882 Danish blood donors, they found a single gene (基因) - PLPP4, strongly associated with the
personality of trusting others, and that the PLPNP4 gene explained 6% of the difference in social trust within the
study population. (在他们最近的一项研究中,涉及33882名丹麦献血者,他们发现了一个单一的基因 -
PLPP4,与信任他人的性格密切相关,PLPNP4基因解释了研究人群中6%的社会信任差异。)”可推断,近
来的一个研究的重点是信任与基因的关系。故选D。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“This is important, as it turns out that trusting people might actually live longer and
healthier lives compared to more skeptical (怀疑的) people. (这一点很重要,因为事实证明,与多疑的人相比,
信任的人实际上可能活得更长、更健康。)”及第五段“If our fight-or-flight system is less strong when wemeet new people, it makes sense that trusting others could have huge health benefits. Indeed, if trusting others acts
as something against stress, it may lower the risk of cardiovascular (心血管的) disease. (如果当我们遇到新朋友
时,我们的战斗或逃跑系统不那么强大,那么信任他人可能会对健康有巨大的好处。事实上,如果信任他
人能起到对抗压力的作用,它可能会降低患心血管疾病的风险。)”可知,信任别人会使人健康、降低心血
管疾病的风险。故选A。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是第二段“A recent study found that our ability to trust strangers may be more
than just a social or psychological characteristic - it could be rooted in our DNA. (最近的一项研究发现,我们信
任陌生人的能力可能不仅仅是一种社会或心理特征——它可能根植于我们的DNA。)”可知,本文主要介
绍研究发现,我们信任陌生人可能不仅仅是一种社会或心理特征,它可能根植于我们的DNA。A项“基因
影响你的信任程度。”适合作本文标题。故选A。
D
There are over 6, 000 languages spoken in the world. But did you know that some of them are in danger of
dying out? From Dusner (three speakers) to Kelabit (five thousand), these languages are spread all over the world,
but they all have one thing in common: unless we act soon, they could become extinct (灭绝的).
Researchers at Oxford University are studying these languages. And Dr. Johanneke Sytsema, who has
organized a popular seminar (研讨会) on endangered languages, thinks there could be a magic bullet for keeping
minority (少数的) languages alive: social media. “Social media could help save language,” Dr. Sytsema says.
“Because young people text each other in the same way they speak, even if they don’t know how to spell it.”
Minority languages are often at risk of being drowned out (压过) by the louder voices of the bigger languages,
which are spoken at school and in the media. But, with social media giving control to the users, the popularity of
social media like TikTok might just have the opposite effect.
Dr. Sytsem a has first-hand experience: she speaks Frisian. Frisian, spoken in a province in the Netherlands
called Friesland, has 350, 000 speakers. Using her own language has given Dr. Sytsema food for thought about how
languages could be saved in the future. “In Friesland, young people who don’t learn much Frisian writing at school
send each other messages on social media in Frisian,” she says. In this way, a new generation of Frisian speakers
keeps the language alive.
According to Dr. Sytsema, our languages, like our wildlife, are natural creations. “Natural beauty needs to be
protected. Once languages die, you don’t get them back, because they’ve grown over thousands and thousands of
years,” Dr. Sytsem a explains. “Every language has its own beauty. And that’s why it’s so important.”12. Why does the author mention Dusner and Kelabit?
A. To describe the richness of human language.
B. To discuss the influence of language on culture.
C. To explain the importance of cultural exchange.
D. To show the serious situation of endangered languages.
13. What do the underlined words “a magic bullet” mean in paragraph 2?
A. A challenging task. B. An effective solution.
C. An open standard. D. A common goal.
14. What gave Dr. Sytsema the idea of language protection?
A. Teaching at a language school. B. The popularity of Frisian on TikTok.
C. Her personal experience with Frisian. D. Working with young people in Friesland.
15. What message does Dr. Sytsema want to give us in the last paragraph?
A. A language is well worth saving.
B. Society is shaping human language.
C. The extinction of languages can be avoided.
D. The young hold the key to language protection.
【答案】12. D 13. B 14. C 15. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是说明文。文章主要说明了世界上有许多语言正面临灭绝的危险,并介绍了牛津大学的研究
者如何通过社交媒体来保护和挽救这些濒危语言。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“From Dusner (three speakers) to Kelabit (five thousand), these languages are spread
all over the world, but they all have one thing in common: unless we act soon, they could become extinct (灭绝的).
(从Dusner(三个使用者)到Kelabit(5000人),这些语言遍布世界各地,但它们都有一个共同点:除非
我们尽快采取行动,否则它们可能会灭绝)”可知,作者提到Dusner和Kelabit是为了展示濒危语言的严重
状况。故选D项。
【13题详解】
词句猜测题。根据后文““Social media could help savea language,” Dr. Sytsema says. “Because young people
text each other in the same way they speak, even if they don’t know how to spell it.”(“社交媒体可以帮助拯救一
门语言,”Sytsema博士说。“因为年轻人互相发短信的方式和他们说话的方式一样,即使他们不知道如
何拼写。”)”可知,Sytsema博士认为社交媒体可以帮助拯救一门语言,所以推知a magic bullet应是“一种有效的方法”之意,和B项An effective solution.(一种有效的方法)意思相近。故选B项。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Dr. Sytsem a has first-hand experience: she speaks Frisian. Frisian, spoken in a
province in the Netherlands called Friesland, has 350,000 speakers. Using her own language has given Dr. Sytsema
food for thought about how languages could be saved in the future. “In Friesland, young people who don’t learn
much Frisian writing at school send each other messages on social media in Frisian,” she says. In this way, a new
generation of Frisian speakers keeps the language alive.(Sytsem博士有第一手的经验:她会说弗里西亚语。弗
里斯兰语是荷兰弗里斯兰省的一种语言,有35万人说。使用自己的语言给了Sytsema博士思考如何在未来
拯救语言的素材。她说:“在弗里斯兰,在学校没有学到多少弗里斯兰语写作的年轻人在社交媒体上用弗
里斯兰语相互发送信息。”通过这种方式,新一代的弗里斯兰语使用者使这门语言保持了活力)”可知,
Sytsema在弗里斯兰的个人经历使她有了通过社交媒体来保护语言的想法。故选C项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“According to Dr. Sytsema, our languages, like our wildlife, are natural creations.
“Natural beauty needs to be protected. Once languages die, you don’t get them back, because they’ve grown over
thousands and thousands of years,” Dr. Sytsem a explains. “Every language has its own beauty. And that’s why it’s
so important.”(根据Sytsema博士的说法,我们的语言,就像我们的野生动物一样,是自然的创造。“自然
美景需要保护。一旦语言消亡,你就再也找不回来了,因为它们已经发展了成千上万年,”Sytsem博士解
释说。“每种语言都有自己的美。这就是为什么它如此重要。”)”可知,Sytsema博士在最后一段想表达
的是一门语言非常值得保护。故选A项。
