Fat and shy, Ben Saunders was the last kid in his class picked for any sports team. "Football, tennis, cricket — anything with a round ball, I was useless," he says now with a laugh. But back then he was the one always made fun of in school gym classes in Devonshire, England.
It was a mountain bike he received for his 15th birthday that changed him. At first he went hiking alone in a nearby forest. Then he began to ride the bike along with a runner friend. Gradually, Saunders set his mind on building up his body, increasing his speed and strength. At the age of 18, he ran his first marathon.
The following year, he met John Ridgway and was hired as an instructor at Ridgwhy’s School of Adventure in Scotland, where he learned about Ridgway's cold-water exploits. Greatly interested, Saunders read all he could about North Pole explorers and adventures, then decided that this would be his future.
In 2001, after becoming a skillful skier, Saunders started his first long-distance expedition (探险) towards the North Pole. It took unbelievable energy. He suffered frostbite (冻疮), ran into a polar bear land pushed his body to the limit, pulling his supply-loaded sled (雪橇) up and over rocky ice.
Saunders has become the youngest person to ski alone to the North Pole, and he's skied more of the North Pole by himself than any other British man. His old playmates would not believe the change.
Next October, Saunders, 27, heads south from the coast of Antarctica to the South Pole and back, a 2900-kilometre journey that has never been completed on skis.

How often do you talk with someone How often do you find you can't remember his/her words Or, perhaps you get distracted (分心) while he/she is speaking and miss his/her messages. Nowadays, modern life is full of distractions: TVs, radios, telephones, and so on, which can make it difficult to listen attentively.
But how can we listen more effectively John Kabatzin, professor at the University of Massachusetts Medical School, put forward the idea of mindful(用心)listening. He said mindfulness means paying attention in a special way, with a purpose, at the present moment and non-judgmentally(不评头论足地).
When we listen mindfully, we many have some difficulties but still remain open to the speaker's ideas and messages. Mindfulness encourages us to focus on the present moment, avoid distractions and ignore physical and emotional reactions(反应)to what people say.
But how can we apply mindful listening to our life John describes three key elements(要素)which can help improve our listening skills.
First, be present. When we listen, focus on the speaker without distractions. Then cultivate the ability to understand others. When we develop it, we can understand a situation from someone else's point of view. Finally, listen to our own “cues”, such as the thoughts, feelings and physical reactions that we have when we feel anxious or angry.
The rule is simple: just “Listen”! Listen carefully and attentively. Pay full attention to the other person, and don't let other thoughts, like what we are going to say next, distract us.
12. What's the purpose of the first paragraph
A. To introduce the topic. B. To raise a question.
C. To show the influence of distractions. D. To describe daily situations.
13. What is one of the advantages of mindful listening
A. Making physical and emotional reactions. B. Sharing messages with the speaker.
C. Stopping distracting thoughts. D. Making sure of feeling understood.
14. What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 5 refer to
A. The feeling of trusting others. B. The ability to put yourself in others’ shoes.
C. The ability to help others. D. The behavior of listening to others.
15. What can be the best title for the passage
A. Advantages of Mindful Listening B. Key Elements of Mindful Listening
C. A Research on Mindful Listening D. An Introduction of Mindful Listening
【答案】12. A 13. C 14. B 15. D
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。现代人在与人对话时总是容易因为各种因素而分心、错过别人说的话，来自麻省大学医学院的教授John Kabatzin提出一种用心聆听的思路，鼓励人们专注于当前、不对对话内容评头论足而分心。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。浏览第一段，首先连续抛出两个问题，并总结出“Nowadays, modern life is full of distractions: TVs, radios, telephones, and so on, which can make it difficult to listen attentively.(如今，现代生活充满了让人们分心的东西：电视、电台、电话等等，这些都会让我们难以专注于倾听)”这样的现状，再转到下一段提问如何更高效地倾听，就引出了文章的主要话题，所以第一段的作用就是引出话题。故选A项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“When we listen mindfully, we many have some difficulties but still remain open to the speaker's ideas and messages. Mindfulness encourages us to focus on the present moment, avoid distractions and ignore physical and emotional reactions（反应）to what people say.(当我们用心倾听时，我们也许还会有些困难，但仍然对讲话者的想法和信息保持开放。用心倾听鼓励我们专注于当下，避免分心并无视对于对话内容的身心反应)”可知，通过用心倾听我们可以避免分心、摒除杂念，与C选项“停止令人分心的想法”含义相符，这正是用心倾听的好处之一。故选C项。
【14题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第五段中“First, be present. When we listen, focus on the speaker without distractions. Then cultivate the ability to understand others. When we develop it, we can understand a situation from someone else's point of view.(首先，专注于当下。当我们在倾听时，不要分心、专注于讲话者。然后培养理解他人的能力。当我们将其发展起来后，就能从其他人的观点中理解情况了)”可知，搭配动词develop和行文的逻辑顺序（按照步骤从前到后进行）it应该指代前句中的the ability to understand others，与B选项“设身处地为别人着想的能力”含义相符。故选B项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。总览全文，尤其第三段的“John Kabatzin, professor at the University of Massachusetts Medical School, put forward the idea of mindful(用心的)listening. He said mindfulness means paying attention in a special way, with a purpose, at the present moment and non-judgmentally(不评头论足地).（麻州大学医学院教授John Kabatzin提出了用心倾听的想法。他说，用心倾听意味着在当下以一种特殊的方式、有目的地、不带偏见地关注）”文章以现代人在倾听时容易分心这一现状引入，主要介绍了一种“用心倾听”的倾听方式和其关键因素，D选项“用心倾听的介绍”符合文章主题，适合作为标题。故选D项。

How often do you talk with someone How often do you find you can't remember his/her words Or, perhaps you get distracted (分心) while he/she is speaking and miss his/her messages. Nowadays, modern life is full of distractions: TVs, radios, telephones, and so on, which can make it difficult to listen attentively.
But how can we listen more effectively John Kabatzin, professor at the University of Massachusetts Medical School, put forward the idea of mindful(用心的)listening. He said mindfulness means paying attention in a special way, with a purpose, at the present moment and non-judgmentally(不评头论足地).
When we listen mindfully, we many have some difficulties but still remain open to the speaker's ideas and messages. Mindfulness encourages us to focus on the present moment, avoid distractions and ignore physical and emotional reactions(反应)to what people say.
But how can we apply mindful listening to our life John describes three key elements(要素)which can help improve our listening skills.
First, be present. When we listen, focus on the speaker without distractions. Then cultivate the ability to understand others. When we develop it, we can understand a situation from someone else's point of view. Finally, listen to our own “cues”, such as the thoughts, feelings and physical reactions that we have when we feel anxious or angry.
The rule is simple: just “Listen”! Listen carefully and attentively. Pay full attention to the other person, and don't let other thoughts, like what we are going to say next, distract us.
12 What's the purpose of the first paragraph
A. To introduce the topic. B. To raise a question.
C. To show the influence of distractions. D. To describe daily situations.
13. What is one of the advantages of mindful listening
A. Making physical and emotional reactions. B. Sharing messages with the speaker.
C. Stopping distracting thoughts. D. Making sure of feeling understood.
14. What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 5 refer to
A. The feeling of trusting others. B. The ability to put yourself in others’ shoes.
C. The ability to help others. D. The behavior of listening to others.
15. What can be the best title for the passage
A. Advantages of Mindful Listening B. Key Elements of Mindful Listening
C. A Research on Mindful Listening D. An Introduction of Mindful Listening
