During the COVID-19 pandemic, many people under lockdown feel lonely and bored. “There is a loneliness epidemic,” said John Dattilo from Pennsylvania State University, US. So he, together with an international team of researchers, studied how to reduce loneliness and increase positive feelings during the pandemic.
According to their new study, reducing loneliness has something to do with doing enjoyable activities that require both concentration (注意力) and skill. When people are absorbed in what they are doing, they enter a state called “flow”, Dattilo explained. “Flow can be achieved by doing activities that we value and that requires us to concentrate fully to use our skills.”
To achieve a state of flow, there must be a balance between the challenge of the task and your skill level. For example, if you’re trying to create a complex (复杂的) computer program but your skill level is low, then you’re likely to feel stressed instead of achieving “flow”. On the contrary(相反地), if the task is too easy, then boredom will set in and “flow” will not appear, either. If you have artistic skills, for example, playing the piano or painting can lead to flow. So can things like skiing, writing and storytelling, depending on who you are.
“When we center a state of flow we become focused, and we experience momentary enjoyment,” Dattilo said. “When we leave a state of flow, we are often surprised by how much time has passed.” However, watching television usually doesn’t help people enter flow, according to Dattilo, because there aren’t any challenges.
“People tend to thrive (茁壮成长) on healthy activities and challenge,” said Dattilo. “We hope this research will help people live fuller, happier, healthier lives”.
4. What did Dattilo study
A. Why people feel lonely. B. How to reduce loneliness.
C. What enjoyable activities arc. D. Why people like a new challenge.
5. What does the underlined phrase “are absorbed in” probably mean
A. Are good at. B. Are proud of.
C. Are focused on. D. Arc relaxed about.
6. How do people feel when they enter the “flow” state
A. They are lonely and bored. B. They feel stressed and tired.
C. They are concentrating and happy. D. They feel time passes slowly.
7. According to Dattilo, the following activities can help people enter the “flow” state except________.
A. playing the piano B. writing C. painting D. watching television
C
Monkeys seem to have a way with numbers.
A team of researchers trained three Rhesus monkeys to associate 26 clearly different symbols consisting of numbers and selective letters with 0-25 drops of water or juice as a reward. The researchers then tested how the monkeys combined—or added—the symbols to get the reward.
Here’s how Harvard Medical School scientist Margaret Livingstone, who led the team, described the experiment: In their cages the monkeys were provided with touch screens. On one part of the screen, a symbol would appear, and on the other side two symbols inside a circle were shown. For example, the number 7 would flash on one side of the screen and the other end would have 9 and 8. If the monkeys touched the left side of the screen they would be rewarded with seven drops of water or juice; if they went for the circle, they would be rewarded with the sum of the numbers—17 in this example.
After running hundreds of tests, the researchers noted that the monkeys would go for the higher values more than half the time, indicating that they were performing a calculation, not just memorizing the value of each combination.
When the team examined the results of the experiment more closely, they noticed that the monkeys tended to underestimate(低估) a sum compared with a single symbol when the two were close in value—sometimes choosing, for example, a 13 over the sum of 8 and 6. The underestimation was systematic: When adding two numbers, the monkeys always paid attention to the larger of the two, and then added only a fraction(小部分) of the smaller number to it.
“This indicates that there is a certain way quantity is represented in their brains, ”Dr. Livingstone says. “But in this experiment what they’re doing is paying more attention to the big number than the little one.”
8 What did the researchers do to the monkeys before testing them
A. They fed them. B. They named them.
C. They trained them. D. They measured them.
9. How did the monkeys get their reward in the experiment
A. By drawing a circle. B. By touching a screen.
C. By watching videos. D. By mixing two drinks.
10. What did Livingstone’s team find about the monkeys
A. They could perform basic addition. B. They could understand simple words.
C. They could memorize numbers easily. D. They could hold their attention for long.
11. In which section of a newspaper may this text appear
A. Entertainment. B. Health. C. Education. D. Science.

What do former American president Bill Clinton and rock musician Pete Townshend have in common Both men have hearing damage from exposure to loud music, and both now wear hearing aids as a consequence. As a teenager, Clintonplayed saxophone(萨克斯管) in a band. Townshend, who has the more severe hearing loss, was a guitarist for a band called the Who. He is one of the first rock musicians to call the public’s attention to the problem of hearing loss from exposure to loud music.
Temporary(暂时的) hearing loss can happen after only 15 minutes of listening to loud music. One early warning sign is when your ears begin to feel warm while you listen to music at a rock concert or through headphones. One later is that an unusual sound or a ringing is sometimes produced in your head after the concert.
“What happens is that the hair cells in the inner ear are damaged, but they’re not dead,” says a physician and ear specialist Dr. Sam Levine. According to Dr. Levine, if you avoid further exposure to loud noise, it’s possible to repair the cells somewhat. However, he adds, “Eventually, over a long period of time, hair cells are permanently damaged.” And this is no small problem.
What sound level is dangerous According to Dr. Levine, regular exposure to noise above 85 decibels (分贝) is considered dangerous. The chart below offers a comparison of decibel levels to certain sounds. Here’s another measurement you can use. If you’re at a rock concert and the music is so loud that you have to shout to make yourself heard, you’ re at risk for hearing loss. That’s when wearing protective devices such as earplugs becomes critical.
Continued exposure to loud music and the failure to wear earplugs can lead to deafness, according to Dr. Levine. He states, “There’s no cure for hearing loss. Your ears are trying to tell you something. That ringing is the scream of your hair cells dying. Each time that happens, more and more damage is done.”
Levels of Common Noises Normal conversation 50 - 65 dB Food blender 88 dB Jet plane flying above a person standing outside 103 dB Rock band during a concert 110 - 140 dB
12. From Paragraph 1,we can learn that________.
A. loud music is a major cause of hearing loss
B. famous people tend to have hearing problems
C teenagers should stay away from school bands
D. the problem of hearing damage is widely known
13. What’s the later warning sign for temporary hearing loss
A. Your ears start to feel warm. B. You play saxophone for a band.
C. A ringing appears in your head. D. You listen to music at a rock concert.
14. The purpose of the chart at the end of the article is to show________.
A. a list of harmful sounds B. the effect of rock concerts
C. the noise levels of familiar sounds D. relationship between daily activities and hearing loss
15. Which of the following statements will Dr. Sam Levine probably agree
A. When your ears feel warm your hair cells are dead.
B. Listening to music of 30 dB is dangerous.
C. Many are taking the risk of losing hearing.
D. Doctors know how to cure hearing loss.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, many people under lockdown feel lonely and bored. “There is a loneliness epidemic,” said John Dattilo from Pennsylvania State University, US. So he, together with an international team of researchers, studied how to reduce loneliness and increase positive feelings during the pandemic.
According to their new study, reducing loneliness has something to do with doing enjoyable activities that require both concentration (注意力) and skill. When people are absorbed in what they are doing, they enter a state called “flow”, Dattilo explained. “Flow can be achieved by doing activities that we value and that requires us to concentrate fully to use our skills.”
To achieve a state of flow, there must be a balance between the challenge of the task and your skill level. For example, if you’re trying to create a complex (复杂的) computer program but your skill level is low, then you’re likely to feel stressed instead of achieving “flow”. On the contrary(相反地), if the task is too easy, then boredom will set in and “flow” will not appear, either. If you have artistic skills, for example, playing the piano or painting can lead to flow. So can things like skiing, writing and storytelling, depending on who you are.
“When we center a state of flow, we become focused, and we experience momentary enjoyment,” Dattilo said. “When we leave a state of flow, we are often surprised by how much time has passed.” However, watching television usually doesn’t help people enter flow, according to Dattilo, because there aren’t any challenges.
“People tend to thrive (茁壮成长) on healthy activities and challenge,” said Dattilo. “We hope this research will help people live fuller, happier, healthier lives”.

A. playing the piano B. writing C. painting D. watching television
【答案】4. B 5. C 6. C 7. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了Dattilo与一个国际研究团队一起进行了如何减少疫情期间人们的孤独情绪的研究,他们认为,做令人愉快的有挑战性的事情使人们进入心流状态能使人们减少孤独。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“So he, together with an international team of researchers, studied how to reduce loneliness and increase positive feelings during the pandemic.(因此,他与一个国际研究团队一起研究了如何在大流行期间减少孤独感并增加积极情绪)”可知,Dattilo所进行的研究是如何减少孤独的研究。故选B。
【5题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“According to their new study, reducing loneliness has something to do with doing enjoyable activities that require both concentration (注意力) and skill.(根据他们的新研究,减少孤独感与做一些既需要专注又需要技巧的愉快活动有关)”以及后文“what they are doing, they enter a state called “flow””可知,进入“心流”状态需要专注,所以当人们专注于他们正在做的事情时,他们会进入一种叫做“心流”的状态,故划线词意思是“专注于”。故选C。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段““When we center a state of flow, we become focused, and we experience momentary enjoyment,” Dattilo said.(“当我们进入心流状态时,我们会变得专注,并体验到瞬间的快乐,” Dattilo说)”可知,进入心流的状态会让人变得专注并感到快乐。故选C。
【7题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“However, watching television usually doesn’t help people enter flow, according to Dattilo, because there aren’t any challenges.(然而,Dattilo表示,看电视通常无助于人们进入心流,因为没有任何挑战。)”可知,看电视不能帮助人们进入“心流”状态。故选D。
C
Monkeys seem to have a way with numbers.
A team of researchers trained three Rhesus monkeys to associate 26 clearly different symbols consisting of numbers and selective letters with 0-25 drops of water or juice as a reward. The researchers then tested how the monkeys combined—or added—the symbols to get the reward.
Here’s how Harvard Medical School scientist Margaret Livingstone, who led the team, described the experiment: In their cages the monkeys were provided with touch screens. On one part of the screen, a symbol would appear, and on the other side two symbols inside a circle were shown. For example, the number 7 would flash on one side of the screen and the other end would have 9 and 8. If the monkeys touched the left side of the screen they would be rewarded with seven drops of water or juice; if they went for the circle, they would be rewarded with the sum of the numbers—17 in this example.
After running hundreds of tests, the researchers noted that the monkeys would go for the higher values more than half the time, indicating that they were performing a calculation, not just memorizing the value of each combination.
When the team examined the results of the experiment more closely, they noticed that the monkeys tended to underestimate(低估) a sum compared with a single symbol when the two were close in value—sometimes choosing, for example, a 13 over the sum of 8 and 6. The underestimation was systematic: When adding two numbers, the monkeys always paid attention to the larger of the two, and then added only a fraction(小部分) of the smaller number to it.
“This indicates that there is a certain way quantity is represented in their brains, ”Dr. Livingstone says. “But in this experiment what they’re doing is paying more attention to the big number than the little one.”
8. What did the researchers do to the monkeys before testing them
A. They fed them. B. They named them.
C. They trained them. D. They measured them.
9. How did the monkeys get their reward in the experiment
A. By drawing a circle. B. By touching a screen.
C. By watching videos. D. By mixing two drinks.
10. What did Livingstone’s team find about the monkeys
A. They could perform basic addition. B. They could understand simple words.
C. They could memorize numbers easily. D. They could hold their attention for long.
11. In which section of a newspaper may this text appear
A. Entertainment. B. Health. C. Education. D. Science.
【答案】8. C 9. B 10. A 11. D
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。哈佛医学院的一位科学家领导的研究团队发现猴子能进行基本的加法计算。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的A team of researchers trained three Rhesus monkeys to associate 26 clearly different symbols consisting of numbers and selective letters with 0-25 drops of water or juice as a reward.可知,在对这些猴子进行测试之前,研究人员对它们进行了培训。故C项正确。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的In their cages the monkeys were provided with touch screens. On one part of the screen, a symbol would appear, and on the other side two symbols inside a circle were shown. For example, the number 7 would flash on one side of the screen and the other end would have 9 and 8. If the monkeys touched the left side of the screen they would be rewarded with seven drops of water or juice; if they went for the circle, they would be rewarded with the sum of the numbers—17 in this example.可知,当猴子触摸屏幕左边时,它们会得到7滴水或者果汁的奖励;当它们触摸屏幕的另一端(即画着圆圈的部分)时,它们会得到17滴水或果汁的奖励。由此可知,猴子是通过触摸屏幕得到奖励的。故B项正确。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“the researchers noted that the monkeys would go for the higher values more than half the time, indicating that they were performing a calculation, not just memorizing the value of each combination.和第五段中的When adding two numbers, the monkeys always paid attention to the larger of the two, and then added only a fraction(小部分) of the smaller number to it.可知,猴子会在超过一半的时间内选择更高的值,这意味着它们在进行计算,而不仅仅是记住每一个组合的值。所以猴子能够进行基本的加法计算。故A项正确。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。通读整篇文章可知,该文介绍的是哈佛医学院的科学家Margaret Livingstone领导的一个研究团队对猴子进行实验得出的研究结果,这属于“科学研究”范畴,故该文应出现在报纸的“科学”版块。故D项正确。

What sound level is dangerous According to Dr. Levine, regular exposure to noise above 85 decibels (分贝) is considered dangerous. The chart below offers a comparison of decibel levels to certain sounds. Here’s another measurement you can use. If you’re at a rock concert and the music is so loud that you have to shout to make yourself heard, you’ re at risk for hearing loss. That’s when wearing protective devices such as earplugs becomes critical.
Continued exposure to loud music and the failure to wear earplugs can lead to deafness, according to Dr. Levine. He states, “There’s no cure for hearing loss. Your ears are trying to tell you something. That ringing is the scream of your hair cells dying. Each time that happens, more and more damage is done.”
Levels of Common Noises Normal conversation 50 - 65 dB Food blender 88 dB Jet plane flying above a person standing outside 103 dB Rock band during a concert 110 - 140 dB
12. From Paragraph 1,we can learn that________.
A. loud music is a major cause of hearing loss
B. famous people tend to have hearing problems
C. teenagers should stay away from school bands
D. the problem of hearing damage is widely known
13. What’s the later warning sign for temporary hearing loss
A. Your ears start to feel warm. B. You play saxophone for a band.
C. A ringing appears in your head. D. You listen to music at a rock concert.
14. The purpose of the chart at the end of the article is to show________.
A. a list of harmful sounds B. the effect of rock concerts
C. the noise levels of familiar sounds D. relationship between daily activities and hearing loss
15. Which of the following statements will Dr. Sam Levine probably agree
A. When your ears feel warm, your hair cells are dead.
B. Listening to music of 30 dB is dangerous.
C. Many are taking the risk of losing hearing.
D. Doctors know how to cure hearing loss.
【答案】12. A 13. C 14. B 15. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了噪音过大导致的听力损失问题,说明了听力损失的不同症状以及日常噪音的的分贝数值。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Both men have hearing damage from exposure to loud music, and both now wear hearing aids as a consequence.(这两个人都因听吵闹的音乐而听力受损,因此现在都戴着助听器)”可知,嘈杂的音乐是使听力丧失的主要原因,故选A。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“One early warning sign is when your ears begin to feel warm while you listen to music at a rock concert or through headphones. One later is that an unusual sound or a ringing is sometimes produced in your head after the concert.(一个早期的预警信号是,当你在听摇滚音乐会或通过耳机听音乐时,你的耳朵开始感到温热。后期是音乐会结束后,你的脑海中有时会产生一种不寻常的声音或铃声)”可知,暂时性听力损失的后期预警信号是一个铃声出现在你的脑海中。故选C。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“According to Dr. Levine, regular exposure to noise above 85 decibels (分贝) is considered dangerous. The chart below offers a comparison of decibel levels to certain sounds.Here’s another measurement you can use. If you’re at a rock concert and the music is so loud that you have to shout to make yourself heard, you’ re at risk for hearing loss. (根据莱文博士的说法,经常接触85分贝以上的噪音被认为是危险的。下面的图表提供了对某些声音的分贝水平的比较。这是你可以使用的另一种测量方法。如果你在一场摇滚音乐会上,音乐太吵了,你不得不大喊才能让别人听到你的声音,那么你就有听力损失的风险)”以及表格中“Rock band during a concert 110 - 140 dB(音乐会上的摇滚乐队达到110 - 140分贝)”可推知,最后的表格是为了向我们表明摇滚音乐会的不利影响,故选B。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“According to Dr. Levine, regular exposure to noise above 85 decibels (分贝) is considered dangerous.(根据莱文博士的说法,经常接触85分贝以上的噪音被认为是危险的)”以及最后一段中“Continued exposure to loud music and the failure to wear earplugs can lead to deafness, according to Dr. Levine.(莱文博士说,持续听吵闹的音乐,并且不戴耳塞会导致耳聋)”和“That ringing is the scream of your hair cells dying. Each time that happens, more and more damage is done.(那铃声是你的毛细胞死亡的尖叫。每次发生这种情况,造成的损害就越来越大)”可推知,Dr. Sam Levine可能会同意“很多人有失去听力的危险”这一观点,故选C。

【详解】1.考查形容词。句意:我们都知道骑自行车是一项很好的运动。分析句式结构可知,需用形容词作定语修饰名词exercise。故将greatly改为great。
2.考查主谓一致。句意:医生告诉我,寿命最长的人是舞蹈家和骑自行车的人。分析句式结构可知,此处是关系代词who引导的定语从句,先行词people是集合名词,所以从句中谓语动词用复数形式。故将lives改为live。
3.考查介词。句意:也许是因为新鲜空气、流畅的运动和锻炼的结合。分析句式结构可知,because表示“因为”,后面接从句,短语because of表示“因为”,后面接名词、代词、动名词等作宾语,the combination of fresh air, smooth movement and exercise是名词短语。故在because后加of。

6.考查非谓语动词。句意:所以你不会制造出二氧化碳,也不会造成空气污染。本句时态为现在进行时,连词and连接两个并列的现在分词,构成进行时。故将cause改为causing。
7.考查语态。句意:看看汽车是如何占领我们的城市的。分析句式结构可知,主语cars与动词take over之间是主谓关系,应用主动语态。故去掉have后的been。
8.考查定语从句引导词。句意:它们经常高速行驶,这可能会危及我们的生命。分析句子结构可知,逗号后是非限制性定语从句,先行词为前面的一句话,在从句中做主语,应用which 引导。故将what改为which。
9.考查时态。句意:还有交通堵塞。根据上下文时态可知,本句应用一般现在时。故将were改are。
10.考查名词。句意:如果用自行车代替汽车,我们的城市将变得更好。bicycle为可数名词,由句中的cars和句意可知,此处应用复数形式。故将bicycle改为bicycles。
