Compared to most people with disabilities, Zhao Hongcheng is lucky.
Born in 1990, a wheelchair has been part of Zhao's life since she was 1 year old due to the aftereffects of poliomyelitis(小儿麻痹症). However, it did not stop her from completing her college and graduate studies before becoming a white-collar worker in Shanghai. And now, as a video content creator who has over 84, 000 followers on the video-sharing platform Bilibili, Zhao wants to be a bridge between the disabled and the rest of society.
First attempt
"I made my first video in 2019," Zhao says, adding that it was also the years he moved to Shanghai. "My original purpose was to find an emotional outlet. I always encountered inconvenience caused by my wheelchair when going out, which made me feel sad. However, I barely had any disabled friends, so I had no one to talk to. I felt quite lonely," Zhao explains. In 2019, the rising popularity of short videos inspired Zhao.
Under the username Da Chengzi Hao Meimei on Bilibili, her first vlog about a trip to Guangzhou with friends was viewed more than 2, 000 times on the first day, which surprised Zhao. "This made me feel that there were many things worth sharing in my life, and it also gave me a sense of mission," she explains. That first video has since been viewed over 48, 000times and her fourth video, displaying how she got to work in a wheelchair, made her even more popular.
Rising ambition
After her fourth video went viral, she continued to make short videos and, in 2021. became a full-time content creator on Bilibili. In her video about an accessibility bus tour in Shanghai, she put forward a piece of advice for such facilities. Fortunately, her proposal was adopted by the city and is currently being optimized. Zhao's other videos, including a list of praise and criticism for various daily travel experiences in Shanghai, have also received wide attention.
"One of the great things about being a content creator is that I feel like I have the initiative of discourse-that is, (talking about)the real difficulties and pains that a disabled person faces," Zhao says.
Long way to go
Zhao says education and employment are the two major hurdles for the disabled group around her. She explains that she has heard many stories about disabled people dropping out of school and that some students with good grades were rejected by their chosen universities or were persuaded to change majors. Beyond that, some people with minor disabilities, which may not affect their daily life at all, were being dismissed by companies, due to their physical examination reports reflecting their issue.
Zhao says she has developed a new perspective for her videos. "I hope to be a bridge between the wider society and the disabled. I want people to be able to truly experience the life of the disabled and to develop a greater understanding of the group," she says.
Now Bilibili star uses her platform to promote greater understanding of the lives and needs of disabled people.

As a child, I never considered myself an athlete at all as I was very uncoordinated. However, I did love to run because I felt as if I was flying but this all changed two years ago when I suffered a knee injury. I was bedridden for two weeks and I had a difficult time moving even short distances. I literally cried myself on my way to the car for a few days.
When therapy wasn't working well for me, I signed up for a hot yoga class for girls, Bikram Yoga to be exact. Starting a yoga practice was truly a godsend because it helped me gain strength in my knees but, most importantly, yoga helped me attain a more peaceful state of mind, body and spirit.
Since each class was heated to 105°F, every time I stepped foot in the yoga studio, I'd feel a surge of negative thoughts come upon me like a big ocean wave. Some of these thoughts were, in the beginning of my practice, so strong that I walked out of the class several times. However, as the months passed by, I noticed that when I didn't get swayed away by my negative thoughts, I could stay in the hot room for longer.
After 3-4 months of practicing hot yoga, my arms and legs were beginning to get definition. I also woke up with so much more energy than I had before starting my yoga practice and I gradually started shedding the pounds from my body. Yoga literally made me feel as if I'd taken a shot of energy drink and just gave me that burst that helped my knees heal and made my overall health better.
As I saw some of my classmates do poses that looked appealing to me, I started to think maybe I could do them too. Therefore, yoga helped show me that I have no real limitations physically unless I set those limitations myself through eating junk and thinking in negative limiting terms.
Also, practicing yoga in front of a mirror helped me connect with myself and practicing with a group of people really helped me to feel a greater sense of connection with humanity whereas before I didn't. Overall, this yoga practice has helped me to see I'm part of a bigger picture in life!
56.What once depressed the author terribly
A.Her inability to walk. B.Her being uncoordinated.
C.Her failure to find her car. D.Her serious physical disease.
57.What was the effect of yoga classes on the author's mind

D.She accepted herself as she was.

This fall, students at the University of Massachusetts found a new menu at their dining commons: the "diet for a cooler planet" menu. This meant herb-roasted lamb, raised with a carbon-friendly approach. It included sweet potatoes that had been picked from a local farm's field post-harvest. The options were plant-heavy, locally grown, and involved little to no packaging.
"We wanted to let students participate in climate action by making choices about their food," says Kathy Wicks, sustainability director for UMass Dining. The university is not alone in this effort. Increasingly, American consumers and institutions are thinking about how their food choices factor into climate change. For many, small choices at the grocery store, dining hall, and restaurant can feel more accessible than big-ticket options like buying a fuel-efficient car or installing home solar panels.
Small changes in dietary habits may make a big difference. Climate activists often target fossil fuels and transportation systems, but studies point to the food system as a significant contributor to global warming. According to Project Drawdown, a research organization that evaluates climate solutions, the way food is grown, transported, and consumed accounts for about a quarter of the world's greenhouse gas emissions. Beef is a regular target. "If, on average, Americans cut a quarter pound of beef per week from their diet, it's like taking 10million cars off the road a year," says Sujatha Bergen, director of health campaigns for the Natural Resources Defense Council. Food waste ranks third among climate solutions. While much waste occurs before consumers are involved—food left on the field or "chucked" because it does not fit appearance standards, Americans also throw out a lot of food they have purchased: about $1, 600 worth a year per family of four.
"People are beginning to understand that their food choices make a big impact on climate," says Megan Larmer, director of regional food at the Glynwood Center for Regional Food and Farming in New York. But, she cautions substantial change will need to come from the wholefood system.
61.What is the purpose of the new menu at the University of Massachusetts
A.To market the cold dishes.
B.To reduce the cost of packaging.
C.To popularize the plant-heavy diet.
D.To promote low carbon awareness.
62.What can be inferred from Paragraph 2
A.Food is a decisive factor for climate change.
B.Food choices matter much to global warming.
C.Universities are working together in climate action.
D.Fuel-efficient cars are not affordable for consumers.
63.What is the main idea of paragraph 3
A.Fossil fuels are contributors to global warming.
B.Global warming are directly correlated with transportation.
C.Dietary habits can have a great influence on climate change.
D.Dietary habits have no effect on global warming.
64.What does Sujatha Bergen say about beef
A.It has great influence on carbon reduction.
B.It is popular among millions of car drivers.
C.It has a close relationship with gas emission.
D.It plays a significant role in American's diet.
65.Which of the following is a suitable title for the text
A.Food System Reform: A Successful Trial
B.Global Warming: An Approaching Danger
C.Carbon Emission: A Killer, or Healer
D.Low Carbon Diet: A Craze, or More

In today's motivational literature, failure is often viewed as something to be celebrated. Inspirational speakers are fond of quoting the words of the novelist Samuel Beckett-"Fail again. Fail better. " It seems that disappointments are an essential stepping stone to success, a turning point in our life story that will ultimately end in victory.
However, psychological researches find most of us struggle to handle failure constructively. In other words, we fail to "fail forward". We find ways to devalue the task at which we failed, and become less motivated to persevere and reach our goals. This phenomenon is known as the "sour-grape effect", which was discovered by Professor Hallgeir Sjastad.
Sjastad explains that "sour-grape effect" is a self-protective mechanism. "Most of us picture ourselves as competent people, so when external feedback suggests otherwise, it poses a serious threat to that self-image," he says. "The easiest way out is to deny or explain away the external signal, so we can reduce the inconsistency and preserve a positive sense of self. We do this even without noticing. "
If you have one bad interview for your dream job, you might convince yourself that you don't really want it at all, and stop applying for similar positions. The same goes if you fail to impress at a sports trial, or if a publisher rejects the first submission of your manuscript. "We tend to explain away our shortcomings and convince ourselves our ‘Plan C' is actually our ‘Plan A'," Sjastad says.
It doesn't mean we should persevere in goals all the time. It can be healthy to change ambitions if the process is no longer making us happy. But the "sour-grape effect may lead us to come to this decision prematurely, rather than hanging on a little and seeing whether we might learn and improve.
Failures are unavoidable. By learning to face the disappointment instead of devaluing its importance and pretending nothing happened, you may find it easier to achieve your goals.
66.Why does the author mention the speech of inspirational speakers in paragraph 1
A.To offer an example to handle failure.
B.To describe a shallow understanding of failure.
C.To introduce a common attitude towards failure.
D.To emphasize the importance of experiencing failure.
67.What can we learn from the paragraph 3 about the "sour-grape effect"
A.It protects us from false feedback.
B.It pictures us as competitive people.
C.It poses a severe threat to self-image.
D.It denies negative feedback to ourselves.
68.What is the author's attitude towards failure
A.Short-sighted. B.Wait-and-see. C.Objective. D.Skeptical.
69.What does the underlined word "prematurely" in paragraph 5mean
A.Unhappily. B.Mistakenly. C.Hurriedly. D.Carelessly.
70.Which statement would the author most probably agree with
A.Don't escape when our self-image is broken.
B.Don't quit when goals no longer make you happy.
C.Never hesitate to replace "Plan A" with "Plan C".
D.Never forget to maintain a positive sense of self.

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇议论文,讨论了正确的失败观——失败是不可避免的。作者呼吁大家树立正确的失败观,警惕"酸葡萄效应",当我们完美的自我形象受到外界负面反馈的影响时,不要逃避,不要贬低自己的价值,要勇敢地面对,从中得到学习和提高。
【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解,词义猜测,推理判断和观点态度四个题型的考查,是一篇教育类阅读,要求考生在捕捉细节信息的基础上,进一步根据上下文的逻辑关系,进行分析,推理,概括和归纳,从而选出正确答案。
66.考查推理判断。根据第二段中的"However,psychological researches find most of us struggle to handle failure constructively.In other words,we fail to "fail forward".We find ways to devalue the task at which we failed,and become less motivated to persevere and reach our goals"然而,心理学研究发现,我们大多数人都很难建设性地处理失败。换句话说,我们不能"向前失败"。我们找到了贬低我们失败的任务的方法,变得不那么有动力去坚持和达到我们的目标。可推知,作者在第一段提出了一个看似正确但实则肤浅的观点。故选B。
67.考查细节理解。根据第三段中的"Sjastad explains that ‘sour-grape effect' is a self-protective mechanism. ‘Most of us picture ourselves as competent people,so when external feedback suggests otherwise,it poses a serious threat to that self-image,'he says. " Sjastad 解释说"酸葡萄效应"是一种自我保护机制。"我们大多数人把自己想象成有能力的人,所以当外部反馈表明情况并非如此时,这种自我形象就会受到严重威胁,"他表示。可知,"酸葡萄效应"否认外界对于我们的负面反馈,故选D。
68.考查观点态度。根据倒数第二段中的"It doesn't mean we should persevere in goals all the time.It can be healthy to change ambitions if the process is no longer making us happy. "这并不意味着我们应该一直坚持目标。如果这个过程不再让我们感到快乐,那么改变雄心壮志可能是健康的;以及最后一段"Failures are unavoidable.By learning to face the disappointment instead of devaluing its importance and pretending nothing happened,you may find it easier to achieve your goals."失败是不可避免的。通过学会面对失望,而不是贬低它的重要性,假装什么都没发生,你可能会发现更容易实现你的目标。可知,作者从正反两方面来对待失败,所以说作者对待失败的态度是客观的,故选C。
69.考查词义猜测。根据第五段中的"rather than hanging on a little and seeing whether we might learn and improve."而不是坚持一会儿,看看我们是否可以学习和提高。可知,前后是对比关系,即酸葡萄效应可能导致我们过早地做出这个决定,而不是坚持一会儿,看看我们是否可以学习和提高,由此可推知,划线词prematurely,与hanging on a little意思相反,意为"过早地",故选C。
70.考查推理判断。根据最后一段"Failures are unavoidable.By learning to face the disappointment instead of devaluing its importance and pretending nothing happened,you may find it easier to achieve your goals." 失败是不可避免的。通过学会面对失望,而不是贬低它的重要性,假装什么都没发生,你可能会发现更容易实现你的目标。可推知,作者最有可能同意A项"当我们的自我形象被打破时,不要逃避",故选A。
六、第一节: 阅读表达(共5小题,每小题2分,满分10分)
阅读下面短文,按照要求完成阅读任务。
My family had moved into a new house with big back yard. For some time, my older brother and I had been expecting a family pet. Finally, we managed to persuade our parents that the time had come for keeping one.
Though my brother and I were of like minds about the goal of having a family member, what exactly it meant to each of us was entirely different. I was excited and happy when my parents brought home the dog, Snoopy. Despite the fun of playing with him, I knew it was really more my brother's pet than mine. I really, really wanted a cat! I tried to show my joy forgetting a pet while trying to hide my disappointment that he wasn't a cat. My parents must have known how I was feeling because they suggested that I could make a wish about it. Running to my bedroom, I made a wish sincerely that I would have a cat. Not more than a minute or two passed when I heard a faint scratching sound coming from the front door. Curious, I stood up, approaching the open front door. There, sitting calmly before me was a large, white cat.
I was absolutely amazed! I went close to the white cat, and it began walking towards me. I gathered his mass into my arms and then I went into the backyard where my parents and brother were playing with Snoopy. So, Snowball joined our household that day, too.
Although my parents always denied having anything to do with Snowball's arrival, I guessed they might have. However, even if they did somehow arrange for him to appear at the front door at the very moment when I was making a wish for a cat, it would not reduce the miracle of a cat doing in my life.

【知识点】词义猜测题;细节理解题;故事阅读类;记叙文
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文,讲述了作者和哥哥说服父母养一只家庭宠物,但是一开始父母带回来的是一只狗,作者虽然很失望不是猫,但依然很喜欢狗,隐藏起了自己的失望。惊喜的是,父母也给她带了一只猫,在让她许愿后,猫咪就出现在了门口。
【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解,词义猜测和开放性试题三个题型的考查,是一篇故事类阅读,要求考生在捕捉细节信息的基础上,进一步根据上下文的逻辑关系,进行分析,推理,概括和归纳,从而写出正确答案。
71.考查细节理解。根据第一段中的"For some time, my older brother and I had been expecting a family pet. Finally, we managed to persuade our parents that the time had come for keeping one."有一段时间,我哥哥和我一直希望能有一只家庭宠物。最后,我们终于说服了父母,让他们相信是时候养一个了。可知,作者的父母被说服养一只宠物。根据要求,答案长度不能超过10个单词。故答案为They were persuaded to raise /keep a family pet.
72.考查细节理解。根据第二段中的"I really, really wanted a cat! I tried to show my joy for getting a pet while trying to hide my disappointment that he wasn't a cat."我真的很想要一只猫!我试着表现我养宠物的喜悦,同时又试着掩饰我对他不是猫的失望。可知,作者感到失望是因为她想要的是一只猫而不是一只狗。根据要求,答案长度不能超过10个单词。故答案为Because she wanted a cat instead of a dog.
73.考查细节理解。根据第三段中的"Curious, I stood up, approaching the open front door. There, sitting calmly before me was a large, white cat."我好奇地站了起来,走向开着的前门。那儿,一只又大又白的猫静静地坐在我面前。可知,在许愿后,作者在前门看到了一只又大又白的猫。根据要求,答案长度不能超过10个单词。故答案为A large,white cat appeared at the front door./ She saw a large , white cat at the front door.
74.考查句义猜测。根据第三段知道"I went close to the white cat, and it began walking towards me."我走近那只白猫,它开始向我走来;以及第四段中的"then I went into the back yard where my parents and brother were playing with Snoopy"然后我走进后院,我的父母和哥哥正在那里和史努比玩。可知,此处是指作者抱着猫走进后院,所以"I gathered his mass into my arms"的意思是作者用胳膊抱起了猫。根据要求,答案长度不能超过10个单词。故答案为The author picked up the cat with her arms./ The author held /hugged/embraced the cat with her arms.
75.考查开放性试题。回答问题时,应先表达你对作者的父母的看法,再说明原因,看法和原因应基于故事内容。故参考答案为I think they are great because their way to realize the kid's wish is interesting and moving.

Compared to most people with disabilities, Zhao Hongcheng is lucky.
Born in 1990, a wheelchair has been part of Zhao's life since she was 1 year old due to the aftereffects of poliomyelitis(小儿麻痹症). However, it did not stop her from completing her college and graduate studies before becoming a white-collar worker in Shanghai. And now, as a video content creator who has over 84, 000 followers on the video-sharing platform Bilibili, Zhao wants to be a bridge between the disabled and the rest of society.
First attempt
"I made my first video in 2019," Zhao says, adding that it was also the years he moved to Shanghai. "My original purpose was to find an emotional outlet. I always encountered inconvenience caused by my wheelchair when going out, which made me feel sad. However, I barely had any disabled friends, so I had no one to talk to. I felt quite lonely," Zhao explains. In 2019, the rising popularity of short videos inspired Zhao.
Under the username Da Chengzi Hao Meimei on Bilibili, her first vlog about a trip to Guangzhou with friends was viewed more than 2, 000 times on the first day, which surprised Zhao. "This made me feel that there were many things worth sharing in my life, and it also gave me a sense of mission," she explains. That first video has since been viewed over 48, 000times and her fourth video, displaying how she got to work in a wheelchair, made her even more popular.
Rising ambition
After her fourth video went viral, she continued to make short videos and, in 2021. became a full-time content creator on Bilibili. In her video about an accessibility bus tour in Shanghai, she put forward a piece of advice for such facilities. Fortunately, her proposal was adopted by the city and is currently being optimized. Zhao's other videos, including a list of praise and criticism for various daily travel experiences in Shanghai, have also received wide attention.
"One of the great things about being a content creator is that I feel like I have the initiative of discourse-that is, (talking about)the real difficulties and pains that a disabled person faces," Zhao says.
Long way to go
Zhao says education and employment are the two major hurdles for the disabled group around her. She explains that she has heard many stories about disabled people dropping out of school and that some students with good grades were rejected by their chosen universities or were persuaded to change majors. Beyond that, some people with minor disabilities, which may not affect their daily life at all, were being dismissed by companies, due to their physical examination reports reflecting their issue.
Zhao says she has developed a new perspective for her videos. "I hope to be a bridge between the wider society and the disabled. I want people to be able to truly experience the life of the disabled and to develop a greater understanding of the group," she says.
Now Bilibili star uses her platform to promote greater understanding of the lives and needs of disabled people.

As a child, I never considered myself an athlete at all as I was very uncoordinated. However, I did love to run because I felt as if I was flying but this all changed two years ago when I suffered a knee injury. I was bedridden for two weeks and I had a difficult time moving even short distances. I literally cried myself on my way to the car for a few days.
When therapy wasn't working well for me, I signed up for a hot yoga class for girls, Bikram Yoga to be exact. Starting a yoga practice was truly a godsend because it helped me gain strength in my knees but, most importantly, yoga helped me attain a more peaceful state of mind, body and spirit.
Since each class was heated to 105°F, every time I stepped foot in the yoga studio, I'd feel a surge of negative thoughts come upon me like a big ocean wave. Some of these thoughts were, in the beginning of my practice, so strong that I walked out of the class several times. However, as the months passed by, I noticed that when I didn't get swayed away by my negative thoughts, I could stay in the hot room for longer.
After 3-4 months of practicing hot yoga, my arms and legs were beginning to get definition. I also woke up with so much more energy than I had before starting my yoga practice and I gradually started shedding the pounds from my body. Yoga literally made me feel as if I'd taken a shot of energy drink and just gave me that burst that helped my knees heal and made my overall health better.
As I saw some of my classmates do poses that looked appealing to me, I started to think maybe I could do them too. Therefore, yoga helped show me that I have no real limitations physically unless I set those limitations myself through eating junk and thinking in negative limiting terms.
Also, practicing yoga in front of a mirror helped me connect with myself and practicing with a group of people really helped me to feel a greater sense of connection with humanity whereas before I didn't. Overall, this yoga practice has helped me to see I'm part of a bigger picture in life!
56.What once depressed the author terribly
A.Her inability to walk. B.Her being uncoordinated.
C.Her failure to find her car. D.Her serious physical disease.
57.What was the effect of yoga classes on the author's mind
A.She got emotionally smarter.
B.She felt limited but hopeful.
C.She became mentally stronger.
D.She accepted herself as she was.
58.What difficulty did the author meet while attending each yoga class
A.The temperature was difficult to control in yoga class.
B.She couldn't bear the pain the knee injury brought.
C.She was greatly influenced by negative thoughts.
D.Lack of confidence prevented the author doing yoga.
59.What can we learn about the author from paragraph 4
A.She did better than her classmates at school.
B.Her physical state has acquired a new outlook
C.She has developed many healthy eating habits.
D.Her social circle was widened in the yoga classes.
60.What is the author's purpose in writing the passage
A.To call on readers to sign up for yoga courses.
B.To present the benefits of practicing yoga regularly.
C.To show readers the necessary skills needed to do yoga.
D.To share with readers her experience in taking yoga classes.

This fall, students at the University of Massachusetts found a new menu at their dining commons: the "diet for a cooler planet" menu. This meant herb-roasted lamb, raised with a carbon-friendly approach. It included sweet potatoes that had been picked from a local farm's field post-harvest. The options were plant-heavy, locally grown, and involved little to no packaging.
"We wanted to let students participate in climate action by making choices about their food," says Kathy Wicks, sustainability director for UMass Dining. The university is not alone in this effort. Increasingly, American consumers and institutions are thinking about how their food choices factor into climate change. For many, small choices at the grocery store, dining hall, and restaurant can feel more accessible than big-ticket options like buying a fuel-efficient car or installing home solar panels.
Small changes in dietary habits may make a big difference. Climate activists often target fossil fuels and transportation systems, but studies point to the food system as a significant contributor to global warming. According to Project Drawdown, a research organization that evaluates climate solutions, the way food is grown, transported, and consumed accounts for about a quarter of the world's greenhouse gas emissions. Beef is a regular target. "If, on average, Americans cut a quarter pound of beef per week from their diet, it's like taking 10million cars off the road a year," says Sujatha Bergen, director of health campaigns for the Natural Resources Defense Council. Food waste ranks third among climate solutions. While much waste occurs before consumers are involved—food left on the field or "chucked" because it does not fit appearance standards, Americans also throw out a lot of food they have purchased: about $1, 600 worth a year per family of four.
"People are beginning to understand that their food choices make a big impact on climate," says Megan Larmer, director of regional food at the Glynwood Center for Regional Food and Farming in New York. But, she cautions substantial change will need to come from the wholefood system.
61.What is the purpose of the new menu at the University of Massachusetts
A.To market the cold dishes.
B.To reduce the cost of packaging.
C.To popularize the plant-heavy diet.
D.To promote low carbon awareness.
62.What can be inferred from Paragraph 2
A.Food is a decisive factor for climate change.
B.Food choices matter much to global warming.
C.Universities are working together in climate action.
D.Fuel-efficient cars are not affordable for consumers.
63.What is the main idea of paragraph 3
A.Fossil fuels are contributors to global warming.
B.Global warming are directly correlated with transportation.
C.Dietary habits can have a great influence on climate change.
D.Dietary habits have no effect on global warming.
64.What does Sujatha Bergen say about beef
A.It has great influence on carbon reduction.
B.It is popular among millions of car drivers.
C.It has a close relationship with gas emission.
D.It plays a significant role in American's diet.
65.Which of the following is a suitable title for the text
A.Food System Reform: A Successful Trial
B.Global Warming: An Approaching Danger
C.Carbon Emission: A Killer, or Healer
D.Low Carbon Diet: A Craze, or More

In today's motivational literature, failure is often viewed as something to be celebrated. Inspirational speakers are fond of quoting the words of the novelist Samuel Beckett-"Fail again. Fail better. " It seems that disappointments are an essential stepping stone to success, a turning point in our life story that will ultimately end in victory.
However, psychological researches find most of us struggle to handle failure constructively. In other words, we fail to "fail forward". We find ways to devalue the task at which we failed, and become less motivated to persevere and reach our goals. This phenomenon is known as the "sour-grape effect", which was discovered by Professor Hallgeir Sjastad.
Sjastad explains that "sour-grape effect" is a self-protective mechanism. "Most of us picture ourselves as competent people, so when external feedback suggests otherwise, it poses a serious threat to that self-image," he says. "The easiest way out is to deny or explain away the external signal, so we can reduce the inconsistency and preserve a positive sense of self. We do this even without noticing. "
If you have one bad interview for your dream job, you might convince yourself that you don't really want it at all, and stop applying for similar positions. The same goes if you fail to impress at a sports trial, or if a publisher rejects the first submission of your manuscript. "We tend to explain away our shortcomings and convince ourselves our ‘Plan C' is actually our ‘Plan A'," Sjastad says.
It doesn't mean we should persevere in goals all the time. It can be healthy to change ambitions if the process is no longer making us happy. But the "sour-grape effect may lead us to come to this decision prematurely, rather than hanging on a little and seeing whether we might learn and improve.
Failures are unavoidable. By learning to face the disappointment instead of devaluing its importance and pretending nothing happened, you may find it easier to achieve your goals.
66.Why does the author mention the speech of inspirational speakers in paragraph 1
A.To offer an example to handle failure.
B.To describe a shallow understanding of failure.
C.To introduce a common attitude towards failure.
D.To emphasize the importance of experiencing failure.
67.What can we learn from the paragraph 3 about the "sour-grape effect"
A.It protects us from false feedback.
B.It pictures us as competitive people.
C.It poses a severe threat to self-image.
D.It denies negative feedback to ourselves.
68.What is the author's attitude towards failure
A.Short-sighted. B.Wait-and-see. C.Objective. D.Skeptical.
69.What does the underlined word "prematurely" in paragraph 5mean
A.Unhappily. B.Mistakenly. C.Hurriedly. D.Carelessly.
70.Which statement would the author most probably agree with
A.Don't escape when our self-image is broken.
B.Don't quit when goals no longer make you happy.
C.Never hesitate to replace "Plan A" with "Plan C".
D.Never forget to maintain a positive sense of self.

阅读下面短文,按照要求完成阅读任务。
My family had moved into a new house with big back yard. For some time, my older brother and I had been expecting a family pet. Finally, we managed to persuade our parents that the time had come for keeping one.
Though my brother and I were of like minds about the goal of having a family member, what exactly it meant to each of us was entirely different. I was excited and happy when my parents brought home the dog, Snoopy. Despite the fun of playing with him, I knew it was really more my brother's pet than mine. I really, really wanted a cat! I tried to show my joy forgetting a pet while trying to hide my disappointment that he wasn't a cat. My parents must have known how I was feeling because they suggested that I could make a wish about it. Running to my bedroom, I made a wish sincerely that I would have a cat. Not more than a minute or two passed when I heard a faint scratching sound coming from the front door. Curious, I stood up, approaching the open front door. There, sitting calmly before me was a large, white cat.
I was absolutely amazed! I went close to the white cat, and it began walking towards me. I gathered his mass into my arms and then I went into the backyard where my parents and brother were playing with Snoopy. So, Snowball joined our household that day, too.
Although my parents always denied having anything to do with Snowball's arrival, I guessed they might have. However, even if they did somehow arrange for him to appear at the front door at the very moment when I was making a wish for a cat, it would not reduce the miracle of a cat doing in my life.

【知识点】推理判断题;细节理解题;观点态度题;段落大意;学习教育类;议论文
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇议论文,讨论了正确的失败观——失败是不可避免的。作者呼吁大家树立正确的失败观,警惕"酸葡萄效应",当我们完美的自我形象受到外界负面反馈的影响时,不要逃避,不要贬低自己的价值,要勇敢地面对,从中得到学习和提高。

66.考查推理判断。根据第二段中的"However,psychological researches find most of us struggle to handle failure constructively.In other words,we fail to "fail forward".We find ways to devalue the task at which we failed,and become less motivated to persevere and reach our goals"然而,心理学研究发现,我们大多数人都很难建设性地处理失败。换句话说,我们不能"向前失败"。我们找到了贬低我们失败的任务的方法,变得不那么有动力去坚持和达到我们的目标。可推知,作者在第一段提出了一个看似正确但实则肤浅的观点。故选B。
67.考查细节理解。根据第三段中的"Sjastad explains that ‘sour-grape effect' is a self-protective mechanism. ‘Most of us picture ourselves as competent people,so when external feedback suggests otherwise,it poses a serious threat to that self-image,'he says.

68.考查观点态度。根据倒数第二段中的"It doesn't mean we should persevere in goals all the time.It can be healthy to change ambitions if the process is no longer making us happy. "这并不意味着我们应该一直坚持目标。如果这个过程不再让我们感到快乐,那么改变雄心壮志可能是健康的;以及最后一段"Failures are unavoidable.By learning to face the disappointment instead of devaluing its importance and pretending nothing happened,you may find it easier to achieve your goals."失败是不可避免的。通过学会面对失望,而不是贬低它的重要性,假装什么都没发生,你可能会发现更容易实现你的目标。可知,作者从正反两方面来对待失败,所以说作者对待失败的态度是客观的,故选C。
69.考查词义猜测。根据第五段中的"rather than hanging on a little and seeing whether we might learn and improve."而不是坚持一会儿,看看我们是否可以学习和提高。可知,前后是对比关系,即酸葡萄效应可能导致我们过早地做出这个决定,而不是坚持一会儿,看看我们是否可以学习和提高,由此可推知,划线词prematurely,与hanging on a little意思相反,意为"过早地",故选C。
70.考查推理判断。根据最后一段"Failures are unavoidable.By learning to face the disappointment instead of devaluing its importance and pretending nothing happened,you may find it easier to achieve your goals." 失败是不可避免的。通过学会面对失望,而不是贬低它的重要性,假装什么都没发生,你可能会发现更容易实现你的目标。可推知,作者最有可能同意A项"当我们的自我形象被打破时,不要逃避",故选A。
