___32___ If you keep setting unrealistic daily goals that involve working out for too long, and if you begin to ignore friends and responsibilities to make time for your workout, then you’re most probably addicted to your fitness tracker.

B. It doesn’t convey what you’re really feeling.
C. After all, reaching a daily step count can be so appealing.

【解析】
【31题详解】上文“These tools can record your daily steps, heart rates, etc. (这些工具可以记录你每天的步数、心率等)”可知,这些工具有它独特的功能,即可以让你在运动后查看步数和心跳数;根据下文“If yes, it might be a sign that you’re addicted to your fitness tracker. (如果是,那可能是你对健身追踪器上瘾的迹象)”可知,这是对一个疑问句提问后的回答;选项F“However, do you find yourself checking your steps and heart rates too often (然而,你是否发现自己过于频繁地查看自己的步数和心率?)”是一个疑问句,承接了上文所说的在运动后可以查看步数和心跳,并强调了如果是过于频繁查看,则就会出现下文所回答的上瘾的情况,故F符合题意,故选F项。
【32题详解】根据下文“If you keep setting unrealistic daily goals that involve working out for too long, and if you begin to ignore friends and responsibilities to make time for your workout, then you’re most probably addicted to your fitness tracker. (如果你总是设定不切实际的日常目标,包括锻炼太长时间,如果你开始忽视朋友和责任,腾出时间来锻炼,那么你很可能对你的健身追踪器上瘾了)”可知,本段是在讲述对健身追踪器上瘾的种种迹象;空处位于段首,推知空处在提问如何判读自己是否对健身追踪器上瘾;选项D“How can you tell whether you’re addicted to your fitness tracker (你怎么知道你是否对你的健身追踪器上瘾了呢?)”正是对如何判断你是否对健身追踪器上瘾作出的提问,引出下文的回答,符合题意。故选D项。
【33题详解】上文“It’s a struggle to overcome the addiction to fitnesstrackers.(克服对健身追踪器的依赖是一场斗争)”可知,克服是有难度的;根据下文“For example, the number in your smart watch showing how far you’ve come can give you a sense of achievement. (例如,智能手表上显示你已经走了多远的数字可以给你一种成就感)”可知,此处内容与查看每天走了多少步是有吸引力的有关;选项C“It doesn’t convey what you’re really feeling.(毕竟,每天走多少步是很有吸引力的)”验证了上文所说的克服起来有困难,是因为有吸引力,也引出了下文所说的具体为什么会有吸引力,即看到自己已经走多远的数字后对你有吸引力,C项符合题意,故选C项。
【34题详解】根据上文“You might focus on your shortcomings rather than your progress. Another problem is that you might find yourself paying too much attention to the step number rather than how your body feels. (你可能会关注你的缺点而不是进步。另一个问题是,你可能会发现自己过于关注步数,而不是你的身体感觉)”可知,此处提到过于关注步数大于自己身体的感觉;选项E“Actually, this addiction to step count can be risky, mentally and physically.(事实上,这种对步数的上瘾在精神上和身体上都是有风险的)”承接了上文所说的过于关注步数而忽略身体的感觉,并对上文所表述的现象进行更进一步的猜测,符合题意。故选E项。
【35题详解】根据下文“For example, concentrating on your hobbies or socializing with friends can be a great way to keep your mind on other things.(例如,专注于你的爱好或与朋友的社交活动是让你把注意力放在其他事情上的好方法)可知,此处列举了与查看健身追踪器无关的事情以分散注意力。由此推知,空处是提出寻找其他与查看健身追踪就无关的日常活动;选项G“Besides, you can find other things to do that don’t involve checking your fitness tracker.(此外,你还可以找到其他不需要查看健身追踪器的事情)”正是提出要寻找其他不需要查看健身追踪器的活动,引出下文对这些活动列举。故选G项。

(2022·合肥八中联考)
Whenever we watch a horror movie and something scary happens, we might close our eyes and scream. ____16____ So why can fear be so much fun
According to a recent study conducted by researchers at the University of Pittsburgh in the US, watching horror movies can raise mood, unite people, and boost confidence.
In the study, 262 adults were asked to enter a haunted house (鬼屋) attraction. Inside, they were met with a series of intense scenarios (场景) over the course of 35 minutes, and were asked to record their feelings both before and after the experience. At the same time, the researchers also monitored their brain waves. ____17____ That’s because in this intense condition, their brains released more dopamine (多巴胺), a chemical which generates a feeling of excitement that continues after their threat has passed.
____18____ Experiencing the attraction is just like running a 5-kilometer race or tackling a difficult climbing wall, which means people in scary situations are more likely to be uncertain and depend on others for support. Humans are social and emotional beings— they need each other in times of stress. ____19____
In addition, being scared in a safe place could be a good way to boost confidence. Being afraid in a safe place even with people around can serve as a confidence boost. ____20____
A. We develop friendship with those we are with when we’re in an excited state.
B. It encourages them to believe in their strength to make it through a scary situation.
C. However, chances are that we will continue to watch and enjoy the movie anyway.
D. So it makes sense that human bodies have evolved to make sure they feel close to those they are with when afraid.
E. According to the researchers, the participants were more likely to be happier and less anxious.
F That may explain the reason why thrillers are popular among audience.
G. What’s more, taking advantage of the sensation of being scared may bring people together.
【答案】
16. C 17. E 18. G 19. D 20. B
【导语】本文为一篇说明文。文章介绍的是人们在观看电影恐怖片时,大脑会释放更多巴胺使人产生快乐情绪。
【解析】
【16题详解】根据上文“Whenever we watch a horror movie and something scary happens, we might close our eyes and scream.(每当我们看恐怖电影,发生可怕的事情时,我们可能会闭上眼睛尖叫。)”和下文“ So why can fear be so much fun ”(那么为什么恐惧会如此有趣呢 )”可知,本空应该为转折,表示虽然害怕但还是会继续观看和享受电影。C项:However, chances are that we will continue to watch and enjoy the movie anyway.(然而,无论如何,我们很可能会继续观看和享受这部电影。)符合语境。故选C。
【17题详解】本段介绍看恐怖电影可以改善心情。空后“That’s because in this intense condition, their brains released more dopamine (多巴胺), a chemical which generates a feeling of excitement that continues after their threat has passed.”(这是因为在这种紧张的状态下,他们的大脑会释放更多的多巴胺,这种化学物质会在威胁消失后产生兴奋感。)解释在紧张的时候,人体会产生多巴胺让人兴奋并且可以在威胁消失后持续作用,所以本空表明在鬼屋的实验中,人们更有可能感到快乐,也不感到那么紧张了。因此选项E符合语境,故选E。
【18题详解】根据第二段 “watching horror movies can raise mood, unite people, and boost confidence.(看恐怖电影可以提升情绪,团结人们,增强信心。)”可知,文章主要从三个方面介绍看恐怖电影的益处。根据空格后“Experiencing the attraction is just like running a 5-kilometer ace or tackling a difficult climbing wall, which means people in scary situations are more likely to be uncertain and depend on others for support. (体验这种吸引力就像跑一场5公里的比赛或攀爬一堵困难的攀岩墙,这意味着处于可怕环境中的人更有可能感到不确定,并依赖他人的支持。)”可知,本段介绍第二点团结人们,本空是该段段首主题句,G项:What’s more, taking advantage of the sensation of being scared may bring people together.(更重要的是,利用恐惧的感觉可以让人们走到一起。)符合语境。故选G。
【19题详解】本段主题是看恐怖片团结。本空前句 “Humans are social and emotional beings— they need each other in times of stress.(人类是社会性和情绪性的生物——他们在有压力的时候需要彼此。)”解释人类是有感情的群居动物,在压力下需要彼此,D项中“人类进化,久而久之我们的身体会令我们对身边之人产生亲近感,这点是有道理的”正好和前句意思连贯。故选D。
【20题详解】根据本段中“In addition, being scared in a safe place could be a good way to boost confidence. (此外,在一个安全的地方受到惊吓也是增强自信的好方法。)”可知,本段介绍看恐怖电影的第三点益:boost confidence(提升信心)。B项:It encourages them to believe in their strength to make it through a scary situation.(鼓励人们相信自己足够坚强能够克服恐怖环境)符合题意。故选B。

Westerners usually don’t think of China as having a rich tradition of making comics, and discussions of Chinese comics focus on manhua,the Chinese comics that were inspired by Japanese manga. It’s true that most of the comics being produced now are manhua. 36 From their beginnings in the 1920s until their popularity bottomed out in the 1990s,lianhuanhuawere some of the most widely read literature in the country.
Most of the lianhuanhua that can still be found in China were printed in the late 1970s and 1980s.37 The lianhuanhua industry began in Shanghai during the 1920s and 30s. Somescholars even trace the origins to Song Dynasty scrolls(卷轴).
Using newly imported printing techniques,publishers began releasing periodicals(期刊)that contained stories and illustrations. 38 There were various regional names, such as “book of little people”. Some of these stories were text accompanied by images while others used speech bubbles or text inserted into the image. The most popular series from the magazines were reprinted in palm-size paperbacks, and before long rental shops sprang up in alleyways throughout the city. 39
Many of these early comics were multi-volume(多卷的)adaptations of martial arts epics or folk tales such as the classical Chinese novel, Journey to the West. 40 Adaptations of foreign- works from Europe and the United States were also produced. In the 1980s, new publications came to have a wider range of goals that included intellectual development and education in science and culture for young people.
A.Their history reaches back much farther.
B.Most people couldn’t afford to rent one to read.
C.For a few coins,readers could sit down and read.
D.Others were adapted from theater shows or popular films such as King Kong.
E.But this was not the case for much of the 20th century.
F.But people could also enjoy foreign movie stories on lianhuanhua.
G.They named these works “lianhuanhua” (linked images).

“A ship in harbor is safe, but that is not what ships are built for," said John A.Shedd, an early 20th century author.Throughout' the Covid-19,we've all become used to assessing risk in new ways.We've come to understand, though we can never get rid of risk altogether,we have great power to make choices both large and small to protect ourselves. 16 It stops us from stepping outside of our comfort zones and trying new things.
Developmental psychologists talk about“ positive risks"—socially acceptable risks that our lives can benefit from. 17 But what about these, who.develop into adults Researchers have found that happiness for older adults is being able to choose how they spend their time, including ways that are adventurous, new and even- like hiking or other outdoor activities—mildly risky.
One guide to positive risk management lists ways that people can make sure their risks are on the “safe" side of risk range.For example, to ensure a successful bike ride, you should in advance equip yourself with a fully-charged cell phone and a full water bottle. 18 Or if you are, concerned about your.physical capacity, consult a certified trainer or medical professional before departure.
19 This means adapting to changing situations.In response to the deadly virus,people choose to step back into normal life only after they are vaccinated (接种疫苗)。In this way, people could be confident that the risk is tolerable.
Nobody wants to be needlessly risky.But using our newly-acquired risk assessment tools, we can once again learn and grow in our lives. 20
A.Take risks in a positive way.
B.But the self- protective mind state carries its own risk.
C.Overall happiness is one benefit of positive risk- taking.
D.Remember to tell one of your friends or family your destination.
E.Besides taking preventive steps, flexible thinking is also encouraged.
F.Like a ship sailing away from its harbor, that is what we were built 10 do.
G.For teenagers, this means risks like running for monitor or trying out for a team.

【导语】本篇主要讲述了作者认为尽管要保护自己,但也要进行适当的积极冒险,尝试新事物的想法,并给出了积极冒险的定义、措施,整体文章词汇、语法难度不大,属于比较简单的七选五。
【解析】
第16题 B 根据前面讲述了因为疫情我们都变得习惯用新方式评估风险,我们开始意识到我们有很大的能力进行大大小小的选择来保护自己,而空格后却表明这阻止我们迈出舒适圈和尝试新事物可知,选B才能符合前后的转折,it指代B中的自我保护的心态,但是自我保护的心态也有自己的风险。
第17题 G根据空格前表明发展心理学家讲述了积极风险的定义,空格后却表示但已经长大成人的大人呢可知,所填句子应该是承接前一句讲述的青少年(发展心理学本身的主要内容就是儿童期,包括青少年的心理发展),因此选G,对于青少年这意味着像竞选班长、报名参加一个团体这样的风险,this指代前面的positive risks,然后空格后再转折讲述成年人的幸福也包括冒险。
第18题 D 根据此处语境是想要进行一次成功的自行车骑行要提前准备好满电的手机,装满水的水瓶可知,此处应该继续描述为了顺利完成自行车骑行而采取的措施,因此选D,记得告诉你的一位家人或朋友你的目的地。
第19题 E 根据空格后表示这表明适应变化的情形。后面举例表明,面对致死的病毒,人们选择在接种疫苗后回到日常生活可知,这里选E才符合后文,this指代E中的flexible thinking,除了采取预防措施,灵活变通的想法也值得提倡。E的besides taking preventive steps也照应上文为了顺利完成自行车骑行采取的措施。
第20题 F 文章开头就用船比喻人,表明尽管在港口的船是安全的,但那不是造船的目的,来鼓励人们进行适当的冒险。在中间讲述了适当冒险的好处,定义和相应措施后,最后一段选F最合适,既符合该段落再次倡导使用新的风险评估工具,也符合前文对积极冒险的倡议,就像离开港口的船一样,我们的人生也该那样(合理冒险)。
