Does your life ever feel as if you’re pushing a heavy car—one on which you’ve spent much money and that has now broken down You’ve done everything right: you haven’t invested heavily in a new business or quit your job to pursue your childhood dream of becoming a professional athlete. You have been a sensible adult living your sensible life. So why does it feel like such hard work
This has been me for the past few months. Earlier this year, I took a long hard look at my sources of income and decided to focus on the ones that provided the most money. I’m lucky enough to have had a good financial year. But despite doing the right thing, it has used up my energy and I’ve worked out why.
Years ago, I realized that I disliked hard work. Don’t get me wrong. I don’t mind working hard, but hard work isn’t for me. What’s the difference For a start, hard work feels as if it never really gets going. You can push hard work and it might move a little but there’s no celebratory moment when it gets done. Most importantly, hard work lacks joy. Working hard on a project you feel excited and moved by can be tiring and difficult, but it’s ultimately joyful and that is what I’ve been missing
So I asked myself what would feel scary but joyful and this is the answer. I’m going to write a romance. Of course, being a middle-aged journalist who suddenly decides to write a book is nothing novel. However, for me, it hits the sweet spot between being joyful enough to make me want to do it and scary enough to make me feel it’s worthwhile.
As with all good middle-aged changes, this one hasn’t really been thought through. I know little about writing fiction and even less about what makes a good book. I have the thinnest of ideas for a plot but, for the first time in a while, I’m excited, I will be another Jane Austen with my fantasies which give me life. So now, I have to go and sharpen my pencil.
4. What can best describe-the author’s current feeling about life
A. A new business makes her feel fresh.
B. She has got everything under her control.
C. She is conflicted about living a sensible life.
D. A childhood dream inspires her to more efforts.
5. What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 2 refer to
A. Living a rather sensible life. B. Identifying income sources.
C. Discovering new life goals. D. Sorting out the author’s jobs
6. What’s the authors understanding of hard work and working hard
A. Journalism is a career worth working hard.
B. Hard work is something either sweet or tiring.
C. Writing a romance is difficult but rewarding.
D. Working hard rarely brings about satisfaction
7. What is probably the best title for the text
A. Works like a dream. B. Middle-aged job crisis
C. Celebratory moment. D. A future Jane Austen.
C
What kind of people can become scientists When a group of researchers posed that question to 9th- and 10th-graders, almost every student gave such responses as “People who work hard” or “Anyone who seems interested in the field of science.”
Many of these same students struggled to imagine themselves as scientists, citing concerns such as “I’m not good at science” and “Even if I work hard, I will not do well.” It’s easy for them to see a scientist’s work as arising from an inborn talent.
But for high school students, learning more about some struggles of scientists can help students feel more motivated to learn science. Researchers at Teachers College, Columbia University and the University of Washington designed an intervention (干预) to change students’ beliefs that scientific achievement depends on ability rather than effort by exposing students to stories of how accomplished scientists struggled and overcame challenges in their scientific efforts.
During the study, the students read one of three types of stories about Albert Einstein, Marie Curie and Michael Faraday. Intellectual (智力的) struggle stories: stories about how scientists “struggled intellectually,” such as making mistakes while addressing a scientific problem and learning from them. Life struggle stories: stories about how scientists struggled in their personal lives, such as not giving up in the face of poverty or lack of family support. Achievement stories: stories about how scientists made great discoveries, without any discussion of coexisting challenges.
Researchers found that students who heard either type of “struggle stories” improved their science performance after-intervention, compared to students in the control group. The effect was especially pronounced for lower performing students, for whom being exposed to struggling stories led to significantly better science-class performance than low-performing students who read achievement stories. In addition, students who read struggle stories reported feeling more personally connected to the scientists. By recognizing a scientist’s struggles and introducing the growth mindset he or she applied to accomplish great works, the students were able to empathize (共情) with the scientists during their own struggles.
8. Why do students fail to imagine themselves as scientists according to the text
A. They lack interest in science. B. They are short of confidence.
C. They don’t have inborn talent. D. They don’t work hard.
9. Which stories will probably motivate students most
A. Michael Faraday was interested in chemistry and physics from a young age.
B. Marie Curie got involved in aiding soldiers of World War Ⅰ.
C. Marie Curie conducted the research mostly in a small, poorly built house.
D. Einstein received the 1921 Nobel Prize for his work with Theoretical Physics.
10. What does the underlined word “pronounced” mean in the last paragraph
A. Noticeable B. slight C. doubtful D. long-lasting
11. What can we learn from the research
A. Science ability has nothing to do with talents.
B. Inspirational stories ensure students to become scientists in the future.
C. The intervention has helped clear up misunderstandings of scientific work.
D. Low-performing students tend to feel more connected to scientists.
D
Fortunately, the days of being spread on thick baby oil and lying in the sun to get your skin yellowish-brown—or more likely burnt—are long over. Many sunscreens work by filtering (滤) the sun’s ultraviolet (UV) rays to keep them from reaching skin cells and causing the DNA damage that can lead to wrinkles and skin cancer. But in recent years, the safety of some of those filtering chemical ingredients, particularly oxybenzone (氧苯酮), has been in question.
A 2019 study published in JAMA found evidence that oxybenzone is absorbed into the bloodstream, leading to concerns about whether it might affect functions of our body. Oxybenzone has also been detected in breast milk for newborn babies. Because of concerns about higher intake in children, doctors from the American Academy of Pediatrics advise against sunscreen, with oxybenzone for kids.
The Environmental Working Group, an activist organization that monitors chemical safety, has called for a ban, but the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) considers sunscreens with oxybenzone safe. “It’s uncertain,” says Deborah S. Sarnoff, president of the U.S. Skin Cancer Foundation. “Just because you’re absorbing the chemical doesn’t mean it’s dangerous.” Further study is required.
But oxybenzone is a risk to coral reefs. Hawaii and the U.S. Virgin Islands have banned the sale of sunscreens with oxybenzone. In a 2022 study published in Science, researchers found that some certain sea plants, when exposed to sunlight, turn oxybenzone into energy or something needed in a way that damages and kills corals.
Some companies have been trying to stop using oxybenzone gradually in stages, and many big brands offer oxybenzone-free options. For anyone who is pregnant or breastfeeding, or simply looking to avoid these chemical filters, Dr. Sarnoff recommends mineral sunscreens, which contain mostly physical barriers.
12. What is the advantage of sunscreen
A. It gets your skin yellowish-brown.
B. It stops wrinkles and skin cancer.
C. It is easy to spread on our skin.
D. It keeps UV rays from harming you.
13. Doctors advise against sunscreen with oxybenzone for kids because _______.
A. They know oxybenzone can affect their bloodstream.
B. They have detected oxybenzone in newborn babies.
C. They don’t want kids to absorb more oxybenzone.
D. They have confirmed oxybenzone hurts their body functions.
14. What can we learn from the last three paragraphs
A. Some organizations have already banned the use of oxybenzone.
B. More research is needed to prove the danger of oxybenzone.
C. Coral reefs in Hawaii were damaged or killed by sunscreens.
D. The U.S. FDA suggests using mineral sunscreens.
15. What’s the text mainly about
A. Questions on safe use of oxybenzone raised by doctors.
B. Discussion on safety of oxybenzone between organizations.
C. Effects of sunscreens on humans and plants in recent studies.
D. The latest findings about sunscreens with oxybenzone.

Does your life ever feel as if you’re pushing a heavy car—one on which you’ve spent much money and that has now broken down You’ve done everything right: you haven’t invested heavily in a new business or quit your job to pursue your childhood dream of becoming a professional athlete. You have been a sensible adult living your sensible life. So why does it feel like such hard work
This has been me for the past few months. Earlier this year, I took a long hard look at my sources of income and decided to focus on the ones that provided the most money. I’m lucky enough to have had a good financial year. But despite doing the right thing, it has used up my energy and I’ve worked out why.
Years ago, I realized that I disliked hard work. Don’t get me wrong. I don’t mind working hard, but hard work isn’t for me. What’s the difference For a start, hard work feels as if it never really gets going. You can push hard work and it might move a little but there’s no celebratory moment when it gets done. Most importantly, hard work lacks joy. Working hard on a project you feel excited and moved by can be tiring and difficult, but it’s ultimately joyful and that is what I’ve been missing
So I asked myself what would feel scary but joyful and this is the answer. I’m going to write a romance. Of course, being a middle-aged journalist who suddenly decides to write a book is nothing novel. However, for me, it hits the sweet spot between being joyful enough to make me want to do it and scary enough to make me feel it’s worthwhile.
As with all good middle-aged changes, this one hasn’t really been thought through. I know little about writing fiction and even less about what makes a good book. I have the thinnest of ideas for a plot but, for the first time in a while, I’m excited, I will be another Jane Austen with my fantasies which give me life. So now, I have to go and sharpen my pencil.
4. What can best describe-the author’s current feeling about life
A. A new business makes her feel fresh.
B. She has got everything under her control.
C. She is conflicted about living a sensible life.
D. A childhood dream inspires her to more efforts.
5. What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 2 refer to
A. Living a rather sensible life. B. Identifying income sources.
C. Discovering new life goals. D. Sorting out the author’s jobs
6. What’s the authors understanding of hard work and working hard
A. Journalism is a career worth working hard.
B. Hard work is something either sweet or tiring.
C. Writing a romance is difficult but rewarding.
D. Working hard rarely brings about satisfaction
7. What is probably the best title for the text
A. Works like a dream. B. Middle-aged job crisis

【7题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“You have been a sensible adult living your sensible life. So why does it feel like such hard work (你是一个过着理性生活的成年人,为什么感觉工作这么困难呢?)”以及倒数第二段“However, for me, it hits the sweet spot between being joyful enough to make me want to do it and scary enough to make me feel it’s worthwhile.(然而,对我来说它处在最好的状态:足够快乐让我想去做它;足够害怕让我感觉它是值得的)”可知,本篇阅读作者自述了自己回顾自己的生活,发现记者这个职业不是自己真正想要的,所以她放弃了这个职业,转而开始写小说,虽然辛苦但是也觉得很值得,因为这是她的梦想。所以主旨应该是人去追寻梦想的职业,而不是中年就业危机,欢庆时刻,未来的简奥斯汀。故选A项。

What kind of people can become scientists When a group of researchers posed that question to 9th- and 10th-graders, almost every student gave such responses as “People who work hard” or “Anyone who seems interested in the field of science.”
Many of these same students struggled to imagine themselves as scientists, citing concerns such as “I’m not good at science” and “Even if I work hard, I will not do well.” It’s easy for them to see a scientist’s work as arising from an inborn talent.
But for high school students, learning more about some struggles of scientists can help students feel more motivated to learn science. Researchers at Teachers College, Columbia University and the University of Washington designed an intervention (干预) to change students’ beliefs that scientific achievement depends on ability rather than effort by exposing students to stories of how accomplished scientists struggled and overcame challenges in their scientific efforts.
During the study, the students read one of three types of stories about Albert Einstein, Marie Curie and Michael Faraday. Intellectual (智力的) struggle stories: stories about how scientists “struggled intellectually,” such as making mistakes while addressing a scientific problem and learning from them. Life struggle stories: stories about how scientists struggled in their personal lives, such as not giving up in the face of poverty or lack of family support. Achievement stories: stories about how scientists made great discoveries, without any discussion of coexisting challenges.
Researchers found that students who heard either type of “struggle stories” improved their science performance after-intervention, compared to students in the control group. The effect was especially pronounced for lower performing students, for whom being exposed to struggling stories led to significantly better science-class performance than low-performing students who read achievement stories. In addition, students who read struggle stories reported feeling more personally connected to the scientists. By recognizing a scientist’s struggles and introducing the growth mindset he or she applied to accomplish great works, the students were able to empathize (共情) with the scientists during their own struggles.
8. Why do students fail to imagine themselves as scientists according to the text
A. They lack interest in science. B. They are short of confidence.
C. They don’t have inborn talent. D. They don’t work hard.
9. Which stories will probably motivate students most
A. Michael Faraday was interested in chemistry and physics from a young age.
B. Marie Curie got involved in aiding soldiers of World War Ⅰ.
C. Marie Curie conducted the research mostly in a small, poorly built house.
D. Einstein received the 1921 Nobel Prize for his work with Theoretical Physics.
10. What does the underlined word “pronounced” mean in the last paragraph
A. Noticeable B. slight C. doubtful D. long-lasting
11. What can we learn from the research
A. Science ability has nothing to do with talents.
B. Inspirational stories ensure students to become scientists in the future.
C. The intervention has helped clear up misunderstandings of scientific work.
D. Low-performing students tend to feel more connected to scientists.
【答案】8. B 9. C 10. A 11. C

【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Many of these same students struggled to imagine themselves as scientists, citing concerns such as “I’m not good at science” and “Even if I work hard, I will not do well.” It’s easy for them to see a scientist’s work as arising from an inborn talent.(这些学生中的许多人都很难想象自己是科学家,他们的担忧包括“我不擅长科学”和“即使我努力学习,我也做不好”。他们很容易把科学家的工作看作是天生的才能。)”可知,学生不能把自己想象成科学家是因为他们担忧自己不擅长科学,以及他们认为即使自己努力了但是自己缺乏作为科学家的天生才能由此可知,他们缺乏信心。故选B。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中“During the study, the students read one of three types of stories about Albert Einstein, Marie Curie and Michael Faraday.(在研究过程中,学生们阅读了关于爱因斯坦、居里夫人和法拉第的三种故事中的一种。)”以及本段中“Life struggle stories: stories about how scientists struggled in their personal lives, such as not giving up in the face of poverty or lack of family support.(生活奋斗故事:关于科学家如何在个人生活中奋斗的故事,例如面对贫困或缺乏家庭支持而不放弃。)”以及最后一段中“Researchers found that students who heard either type of “struggle stories” improved their science performance after-intervention, compared to students in the control group. (研究人员发现,与对照组的学生相比,听过任何一种“奋斗故事”的学生在干预后的科学成绩都有所提高。)”可知,研究人员通过向学生们讲述“奋斗故事”,这样的故事最能激发学生。C选项“Marie Curie conducted the research mostly in a small, poorly built house.(居里夫人主要是在一个小而简陋的房子里进行研究的。)”属于克服困难和挑战,努力奋斗并成功的故事。故选C。
【10题详解】
词义猜测题。根据划线词后面的内容“for whom being exposed to struggling stories led to significantly better science-class performance than low-performing students who read achievement stories. (对他们来说,阅读奋斗故事的学生在科学课上的表现明显好于阅读成就故事的表现不佳的学生。)”可知,阅读奋斗的故事对学生们产生的影响是显著的,因为这些学生在科学课上的表现明显好于阅读成就故事的表现不佳的学生。故划线词与A选项“Noticeable(明显的)”为同义词。故选A。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“But for high school students, learning more about some struggles of scientists can help students feel more motivated to learn science.(但对于高中生来说,更多地了解科学家的一些奋斗可以帮助学生更有动力学习科学。)”以及最后一段中“ By recognizing a scientist’s struggles and introducing the growth mindset he or she applied to accomplish great works, the students were able to empathize (共情) with the scientists during their own struggles.(通过认识科学家的奋斗,并介绍他们为完成伟大的工作所应用的成长心态,学生们能够在科学家自己的奋斗中与他们产生共鸣。)”可知,通过阅读科学家们的奋斗故事,增强了学生们对科学家们的认同感,能够在自己的科学研究上产生共鸣,更有动力学习科学即有助于消除对科学工作的误解——依靠天赋。故选C。
D
Fortunately, the days of being spread on thick baby oil and lying in the sun to get your skin yellowish-brown—or more likely burnt—are long over. Many sunscreens work by filtering (滤) the sun’s ultraviolet (UV) rays to keep them from reaching skin cells and causing the DNA damage that can lead to wrinkles and skin cancer. But in recent years, the safety of some of those filtering chemical ingredients, particularly oxybenzone (氧苯酮), has been in question.
A 2019 study published in JAMA found evidence that oxybenzone is absorbed into the bloodstream, leading to concerns about whether it might affect functions of our body. Oxybenzone has also been detected in breast milk for newborn babies. Because of concerns about higher intake in children, doctors from the American Academy of Pediatrics advise against sunscreen, with oxybenzone for kids.
The Environmental Working Group, an activist organization that monitors chemical safety, has called for a ban, but the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) considers sunscreens with oxybenzone safe. “It’s uncertain,” says Deborah S. Sarnoff, president of the U.S. Skin Cancer Foundation. “Just because you’re absorbing the chemical doesn’t mean it’s dangerous.” Further study is required.
But oxybenzone is a risk to coral reefs. Hawaii and the U.S. Virgin Islands have banned the sale of sunscreens with oxybenzone. In a 2022 study published in Science researchers found that some certain sea plants, when exposed to sunlight, turn oxybenzone into energy or something needed in a way that damages and kills corals.
Some companies have been trying to stop using oxybenzone gradually in stages, and many big brands offer oxybenzone-free options. For anyone who is pregnant or breastfeeding, or simply looking to avoid these chemical filters, Dr. Sarnoff recommends mineral sunscreens, which contain mostly physical barriers.
12. What is the advantage of sunscreen
A. It gets your skin yellowish-brown.
B. It stops wrinkles and skin cancer.
C. It is easy to spread on our skin.
D. It keeps UV rays from harming you.
13. Doctors advise against sunscreen with oxybenzone for kids because _______.
A. They know oxybenzone can affect their bloodstream.
B. They have detected oxybenzone in newborn babies.
C. They don’t want kids to absorb more oxybenzone.
D. They have confirmed oxybenzone hurts their body functions.
14. What can we learn from the last three paragraphs
A. Some organizations have already banned the use of oxybenzone.
B. More research is needed to prove the danger of oxybenzone.
C. Coral reefs in Hawaii were damaged or killed by sunscreens.
D. The U.S. FDA suggests using mineral sunscreens.
15. What’s the text mainly about
A. Questions on safe use of oxybenzone raised by doctors.
B. Discussion on safety of oxybenzone between organizations.
C. Effects of sunscreens on humans and plants in recent studies.
D. The latest findings about sunscreens with oxybenzone.
【答案】12. D 13. C 14. B 15. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一些关于含氧苯酮防晒霜的最新发现。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“Many sunscreens work by filtering (滤) the sun’s ultraviolet (UV) rays to keep them from reaching skin cells and causing the DNA damage that can lead to wrinkles and skin cancer. (许多防晒霜的工作原理是过滤太阳的紫外线,防止它们到达皮肤细胞,造成可能导致皱纹和皮肤癌的DNA损伤。)”可知,防晒霜的优点在于过滤太阳的紫外线,防止它们到达皮肤细胞,造成可能导致皱纹和皮肤癌的DNA损伤即它可以防止紫外线伤害你。故选D。

I hope this email finds you well. As one of your students, I am reaching out to you for guidance on an issue that we have been facing with the preparation of our English drama performance.
To spark our passion for English study, an English Drama Festival will take place in our school. Recently, we have been struggling with the selection of an English drama suitable for high school students. We have tried various plays such as The Necklace, The Million Pound Bank Note.

Best regards,
