Climate change has increased average temperatures by 1℃ over the past century, making heat waves more frequent and intense than those from any other point in recorded history. 36 A study published in the journal Nature Climate Change found global warming responsible for 37 percent of heat-related deaths between
1991 and 2018.
The following is what happens if you’re the next to be killed. First, your brain sends a series of messages to
your sweat glands telling them to increase sweat production. Then your heart starts beating faster to pump blood to
the skin while blood flow is directed away from important organs(器官) like your liver, kidneys and gut.

to climb from a normal level to about 104 degrees. 38 You may feel it start as a dull headache. Before
long, you might lose consciousness. Your brain might begin to swell.
While you struggle to stay awake and avoid dizzying confusion, the excessive internal heat is damaging your
gut, consequently causing an inflammatory(发炎的) response. 39
That’s just part of what we know about how extreme heat kills you. 40 A lot of what we know comes from studies on animal models, like mice and rats, or from examinations of people dying of heat stroke.
A ．As the heat rises quickly, so does the death number.
B ．That’s because we can’t study it in humans in the laboratory.

For anyone trying to lose weight, one of the first indulgences (嗜好) to get cut from their diet is alcohol. After all, a good-size glass of wine contains more than 150 calories. 16 New findings from researchers reveal
that women who drink moderately (适量) are less likely to gain weight than those who don’t.
Researchers conducted a study of women’s drinking habits and weight gain. The researchers asked the women
about their alcohol intake and measured each volunteer’s weight. 17 The researchers also considered
some potential factors, such as age, smoking, physical activity and other lifestyle. 18
19 First, it appeared that the women who drank the most got fewer of their total calories from other sources than other women, Second, there is evidence that alcohol may cause physiological changes to appetite that
may drive women to lose weight as they drink more.
This study suggests that you can probably make room for moderate alcohol consumption and not have it result
in weight gain. 20 Previous studies have shown that drinking alcohol can lead to a greater risk of
developing breast cancer. So whatever potential gains a glass of wine may have on slimming down the waist, the
benefits must be balanced against the other potential risks of alcohol consumption.
A ．Several possibilities can account for the link.
B ．A small glass of wine per day is an unwise choice.
C ．But maybe it’s time to put wine glasses back on the table.
D ．The more alcohol women consumed, the slimmer they would be.
E ．But we don’t advise people to drink more alcohol to control weight.
F ．Those drinking a certain amount of alcohol daily were of normal weight.
G ．But the link existed between alcohol intake with a low risk of gaining weight.

Working on ships is not an easy task and dissatisfaction and deactivation can easily be developed among
seafarers as a result of various kinds of stresses. 36 Therefore, captain should take additional steps as
mentioned below to ensure that all team members are comfortable with each other both on and off work.
The morning meeting, which is conducted to assign work to team members, is the best time to get all the crew
members together. It is necessary that crew members talk to each other during such meetings. 37 This
activity gives members a sense of responsibility and importance. It also works a great deal in improving their
performance and interpersonal relationship.
On-board training program is yet another important opportunity to get crew members together to instruct
important working knowledge or conduct safety committee meetings. 38 Spend free time together. It is often seen that post working hours, officers and crew members spend time in their own rooms instead of getting together in offices or crew lounge. Watching movies and playing games in free time is a solid way to know each
other and build great relationships both on and off work.
39 Party is a great method to bond people together and improve scarred relationships on board ships.
However, it is necessary that they are arranged in such a way that maximum crew is able to participate. Festival
celebrations are also a great way to enhance interpersonal relationships between people onboard.
The above-mentioned methods are some of the main ones that are used onboard to strengthen relationships on
board ships. 40 And it would also improve productivity and employment satisfaction.
A ．During such situation, it is up to captain.
B ．A “one-man-show” cannot run the whole ship.
C ．Everyone likes to party and unwind once in a while.
D ．Each member should be given a chance to provide suggestions.
E ．Doing this would ensure smooth and safe operations of the ship.
F ．Captain should arrange the training for maximum crew members to participate.
G ．This is the most important step towards developing interpersonal relationship on board ships.

“What is your problem ” So simple and yet so difficult to answer, that essential question is what I ask my high
school engineering students when they begin the study of inventions. Our students are often provided with the
problem, or spoon-fed with a solution, or end up checking their answers against those in the back of the
book. 36
The concept is the “invention design process” or “engineering design process” . 37 These steps include
identifying a practical problem, developing potential solutions and ultimately designing something that proves they
can improve the lives of beneficiaries. In short, we are talking about real problems that affect real people.
Students will often say, “ 38 ” My reply is similar: “I don’t either, but it is going to be a lot offun seeing you find one.” At this point in the process, students begin to realize that not only do they need to identify a problem, but they have to clearly understand it. There is no room for loosely pieced together projects without thought or true
purpose.
For example, each term my class invents devices to assist local fire and police departments. At the end of the unit, we invite police officers and firefighters to a showcase who then provide students with feedback (反馈) on the
devices. 39 As a result, the students will also give their projects serious attention.
Inventing is a skill and every student can develop that skill. It may be a cliché (陈词滥调), but it’s true — kids are natural inventors. And once they are taught the skills of how to invent, there is no stopping them. As a teacher, I
can’t help but ask, “ 40 ”
A ．I don’t know the answer to the problem.
B ．I don’t know what problem I should solve.
C ．Now I am introducing them to a foreign concept.
D ．It involves students in completing a series of steps.
E ．How could you not give the problem the attention it deserves
F ．How can I not want to send more problem-solvers into the world
G ．They do not have time to waste on projects that don’t take their work seriously.

Have you ever wished you didn’t have to wake up early and go all the way to school For 700,000 American kids, this wish comes true. 36 This kind of learning has different names: online learning or distance learning. Regardless of what it is called, this idea may create an impression of a lonely kid reading pages of information on a computer screen rather than from a book or an image of another kid spending the day playing video games instead of learning mathematics or reading a book. Where online education is concerned, both of these are false! Actually,
online learning simply means learning differently.
37 Flexibility is the main advantage. Students can attend school wherever and whenever they desire.
Homework can be turned in from anywhere the student has Internet access. Additionally, many online schools will
allow students to work at their own pace.
Another advantage of online schooling is with the variety of courses. Most online schools teach the same basic
classes like English, math, science, and history. 38 However, traditional schools are often unable to offer
these types of classes if there are not enough students.
Online schools also have different types of learning tools for kids to use. For example, many online schools have special Web sites where only students registered in online classes can watch videos, see lessons presented, or
chat with teachers and other students. Some online schools have live class times where students can call and talk
with the teacher directly. 39
Computer technology is amazing, and we use computers for chatting with our friends, listening to music, and
playing games. 40 Since 2012, at least 38 states either have had their own online schools or made rules for
students attending them. It looks like online schools are here to stay, but only you can decide if this type of learning
is right for you.
A ．Online schools offer many benefits for the learners.
B ．Of course, there are some disadvantages of going to school online.
C ．Almost every part of our lives is affected by it, and school is no exception.
D ．They attend school over the Internet using ordinary home or library computers.
E ．Other online schools even have online clubs where kids can talk about their hobbies.
F ．Some online schools also offer specialized classes in subjects such as space science, French, or zoology.
G ．For some students, online school may be ideal, but for others, traditional school may better meet their needs.

People are taught how to speak, but good sentence structure and a wide range of vocabulary words won’t
always lead to being understood or understanding others. 16
The good news is that it’s never too late to learn how to communicate more effectively. The first step is to realize you’ re having communication issues. 17 The following is a list of the top three signs that
you need to learn healthier communication skills.
You have the same fights over and over.
Your fights are about the same topic again and again. If this is happening, it means you don’t yet have the
skills to resolve conflicts. 18 The fight may end, but it’s only a matter of time before you argue
about the same thing again. When you learn how to resolve conflicts, issues don’t pile up or become baggage that
weighs down your relationship.
19
_______
You don’t want to fight so you try not to bring up subjects that lead only to pain and disconnection. The
problem is that avoiding them leads to pain and disconnection anyway. Unless you learn how to have hard
conversations productively, you will get more and more disconnected until your relationship is in danger of ending.
You regularly feel misunderstood or unheard.
No matter how hard you try, you don’t feel understood. Perhaps your partner has expressed the same
feeling.Over time the disconnected feeling does damage to your relationship. It’s important to learn how to
communicate in a better way, so that both you and the other person feel heard and
understood. 20 To be heard, your partner will need to learn how to listen. For you, to be able to
hear your partner, you will need to do the same.
A ．You avoid discussing certain topics.
B ．You argue with your partners about some issues.
C ．If you can’t resolve issues, they will continue to show up.
D ．This requires more than just speaking to your partner or vice versa.
E ．Then, you can learn how to communicate in a more productive way.
F ．If you leave conflicts unsettled, you will feel disconnected and lonely.
G ．Effective communication requires much more than being able to speak.

Gratitude is more than just saying “thank you” to someone who has helped us or given us a gift. 16
And this positive emotion can be good for our emotional and physical health, as well as the health of our
relationships.
One reason for this is that gratitude stops us from thinking about negative emotions. Writing a “thank you”
letter, for example, shifts our attention so that we focus on positive emotions. Even if we don’t share our writing
with anyone, the act of completing the exercise alone makes us happier and more satisfied with life. And this gets better with time. As we are essentially training our brain to be more in tune with noticing the positive, after several
weeks or months, this becomes more intuitive(直觉的). 17
18 Studies prove gratitude can improve sleep quality, better eating habits, and reduced
inflammation(炎症) in people who have had heart problems.
Gratitude is clearly good for us, but is it also good for the people in our lives 19 When shared, spoken
or written gratitude is about feeling valued and helping others feel valued too. Feeling valued can help build
stronger relationships with family, partners, friends or even colleague. And that’s on top of all the other ways
gratitude is clearly good for us.
Many studies show expressing gratitude benefits people a lot including the emotional, mental and physical
health etc. 20 Let’s stop counting sheep or calorie and start counting our blessings instead.
A ．So why not do so
B ．The simple answer is “yes”
C ．We should form good habits in our daily work.
D ．Gratitude can also make us feel good in our bodies.
E ．The more we express gratitude, the more positive we feel.
F ．How to describe the relationship between gratitude and complaint
G ．It’s a deeper appreciation for someone or something making us feel positive.

Many of our memory systems are driven by one single, powerful urge: to survive. We seem to have an inborn instinct(本能) to remember routes, so we can navigate our local environments safely. 16 Ever since we lived in groups, us humans have needed to know who’s “part of the group”, and who isn’t, as a vital part of staying safe.
And we’re excellent at remembering things that might put our wellbeing at risk. A recent research study showed
that we’re remarkably accurate at recalling anything connected with infection.
In the study, volunteers were shown a set of objects that they would be tested on later. But there was a twist.
Some of the items were held by a researcher who was said to have COVID．And guess what 17 None of the
volunteers would ever have to touch those things themselves. But their minds still prioritised them, locking in the
information for later—just in case it could keep them safe.
18 When you’ve got something important to remember, why not “tag” it with one of those
unpleasant feelings that your brain can’t help holding on to
19 Picture the bottle, and imagine opening it only to discover that it’s weeks out of date. Think
about how it would look—and smell! Thanks to the power of disgust, you’ll have a much better chance of
remembering to buy what you need.
Maybe you have to visit the library before it closes. To refresh your memory, visualise the library tables piled high with all the foods you absolutely hate. See if your instinct for self-protection keeps the library in your
thoughts more than normally!
And how about learning the password for your credit card by imagining that only the correct buttons on the
ATM are safe The first time you type the password, pretend that all the other keys are covered in deadly germs.
20
______
Don’t try this technique too often, though, or you’ll end up always feeling on edge! But when your memory
needs a boost a small bit of disgust can be very healthy for your recall.
A ．Make use of your drive to survive.
B ．And it’s what you can use to your advantage.
C ．Keep the “dangerous” pattern on your memory.
D ．We’re also naturally talented at recognising faces.
E ．Even imaginary dangers can sharpen our memory skills.
F ．Worried about forgetting the milk from your shopping list
G ．Those “infected” objects proved to be significantly easier to recall.

Empathy, the ability to understand and co-experience the feelings and thoughts of other people, is probably
one of the most important skills a person can have. 36
Humans are social animals.
There are very few activities that humans take part in that don’t involve others. 37 It allows you to perceive others’ motives, treat them the way they want to be treated, understand how others perceive you, and so
on.
It lets you better understand non-verbal components of communication.
38 People who are not empathetic have a hard time reading between the lines of conversations. They
cannot understand that what the other person means to communicate is different from what they actually say.
39
____
When you unconsciously perceive what the other party wants and needs and can understand exactly why they
want it, reaching a “win-win” solution gets easier. You don’t have to blindly search for a way out.
It broadens your horizons.
Seeing the world from other people’s perspectives lets you perceive it to a fuller extent. When you are able to
look at life from other people’s point of view, you are able to live a more fulfilled life.
40 Thus, achieving higher levels of empathy often means achieving greater fulfilment as human
beings.
A ．It makes you better at handling conflicts.
B ．It helps you introduce your ideas to others.
C ．Empathy basically is what makes us human.
D ．Humans always live and work with each other.
E ．So why exactly is empathy so important for us
F ．Communication is so much more than what words express.
G ．Therefore, the ability to better understand others and read their feelings is an advantage.阅读理解之七选五-2024年高三英语名校联考试题汇编

For anyone trying to lose weight, one of the first indulgences (嗜好) to get cut from their diet is alcohol. After all, a good-size glass of wine contains more than 150 calories. 16 New findings from researchers reveal
that women who drink moderately (适量) are less likely to gain weight than those who don’t.
Researchers conducted a study of women’s drinking habits and weight gain. The researchers asked the women
about their alcohol intake and measured each volunteer’s weight. 17 The researchers also considered
some potential factors, such as age, smoking, physical activity and other lifestyle. 18
19 First, it appeared that the women who drank the most got fewer of their total calories from other sources than other women, Second, there is evidence that alcohol may cause physiological changes to appetite that
may drive women to lose weight as they drink more.
This study suggests that you can probably make room for moderate alcohol consumption and not have it result
in weight gain. 20 Previous studies have shown that drinking alcohol can lead to a greater risk of
developing breast cancer. So whatever potential gains a glass of wine may have on slimming down the waist, the
benefits must be balanced against the other potential risks of alcohol consumption.
A ．Several possibilities can account for the link.
B ．A small glass of wine per day is an unwise choice.
C ．But maybe it’s time to put wine glasses back on the table.
D ．The more alcohol women consumed, the slimmer they would be.
E ．But we don’t advise people to drink more alcohol to control weight.
F ．Those drinking a certain amount of alcohol daily were of normal weight.
G ．But the link existed between alcohol intake with a low risk of gaining weight.
【答案】 16 ．G 17 ．A 18 ．F 19 ．D 20 ．E
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了研究者认为适量饮酒对妇女保持体重有好处，但与此同时饮酒也会
带来患其他疾病的风险。
16 ．下文“New findings from researchers reveal that women who drink moderately (适量) are less likely to gain
weight than those who don’t.”(来自于研究者新的发现揭示了适量饮酒的妇女比不喝酒的女性有更少增加体重 的可能性)说明此处和上文提到的减肥需要戒酒发生了转折，是对 G 项“但是更少的体重增长和酒精的吸收
量之间存在联系” 内容的解释说明。故选 G。
17 ．下文“The researchers also considered some potential factors, such as age, smoking, physical activity and other lifestyle.”(研究者也考虑了一些潜在的因素， 比如年龄， 是否吸烟， 体育锻炼和其它的生活方式)是对 A 项“几
种可能性也要考虑到其中” 的内容的举例说明。故选 A。
18 ．上文“ The researchers asked the women about their alcohol intake and measured each volunteer’s weight”(研 究者询问了妇女酒精的摄取量和每个志愿者的体重)和“The researchers also considered some potential factors, such as age, smoking, physical activity and other lifestyle. (研究者同时也考虑了一些潜在的因素， 比如年龄， 是 否吸烟， 体育锻炼和其它的生活方式)讲述了实验考虑的因素， 从而得出实验结论， 而 F 项“那些每日适量饮
酒的人体重正常”正是对实验结果的阐述。故选 F。
19 ．下文“First, it appeared that the women who drank the most got fewer of their total calories from other sources
than other women, Second, there is evidence that alcohol may cause physiological changes to appetite that may
drive women to lose weight as they drink more.”(首先饮酒量最多的女性从其他来源获取的总热量似乎比其他 女性要少。其次，有证据表明，酒精可能会引起食欲的生理变化，从而使女性在饮酒时体重下降)说明饮酒
量多的女性越容易瘦下来，是对 D 项“妇女喝越多酒酒会越瘦”这一观点的解释说明。故选 D。
20 ．下文“Previous studies have shown that drinking alcohol can lead to a greater risk of developing breast
cancer.”(之前的研究显示喝酒可以导致更多患乳腺癌的风险） 和上文喝酒可以保持体重之间发生了转折关系，
是对 E 项“我们不建议人们喝更多酒去控制体重” 内容的举例说明。故选 E。

Working on ships is not an easy task and dissatisfaction and deactivation can easily be developed among
seafarers as a result of various kinds of stresses. 36 Therefore, captain should take additional steps as
mentioned below to ensure that all team members are comfortable with each other both on and off work.
The morning meeting, which is conducted to assign work to team members, is the best time to get all the crew
members together. It is necessary that crew members talk to each other during such meetings. 37 This
activity gives members a sense of responsibility and importance. It also works a great deal in improving their
performance and interpersonal relationship.
On-board training program is yet another important opportunity to get crew members together to instruct
important working knowledge or conduct safety committee meetings. 38 Spend free time together. It is often seen that post working hours, officers and crew members spend time in their own rooms instead of getting together in offices or crew lounge. Watching movies and playing games in free time is a solid way to know each
other and build great relationships both on and off work.
39 Party is a great method to bond people together and improve scarred relationships on board ships.
However, it is necessary that they are arranged in such a way that maximum crew is able to participate. Festival
celebrations are also a great way to enhance interpersonal relationships between people onboard.
The above-mentioned methods are some of the main ones that are used onboard to strengthen relationships on
board ships. 40 And it would also improve productivity and employment satisfaction.
A ．During such situation, it is up to captain.
B ．A “one-man-show” cannot run the whole ship.
C ．Everyone likes to party and unwind once in a while.
D ．Each member should be given a chance to provide suggestions.

“What is your problem ” So simple and yet so difficult to answer, that essential question is what I ask my high
school engineering students when they begin the study of inventions. Our students are often provided with the
problem, or spoon-fed with a solution, or end up checking their answers against those in the back of the
book. 36
The concept is the “invention design process” or “engineering design process” . 37 These steps include identifying a practical problem, developing potential solutions and ultimately designing something that proves they
can improve the lives of beneficiaries. In short, we are talking about real problems that affect real people.
Students will often say, “ 38 ” My reply is similar: “I don’t either, but it is going to be a lot offun seeing you find one.” At this point in the process, students begin to realize that not only do they need to identify a problem, but they have to clearly understand it. There is no room for loosely pieced together projects without thought or true
purpose.
For example, each term my class invents devices to assist local fire and police departments. At the end of the unit, we invite police officers and firefighters to a showcase who then provide students with feedback (反馈) on the
devices. 39 As a result, the students will also give their projects serious attention.
Inventing is a skill and every student can develop that skill. It may be a cliché (陈词滥调), but it’s true — kids are natural inventors. And once they are taught the skills of how to invent, there is no stopping them. As a teacher, I
can’t help but ask, “ 40 ”
A ．I don’t know the answer to the problem.
B ．I don’t know what problem I should solve.
C ．Now I am introducing them to a foreign concept.
D ．It involves students in completing a series of steps.
E ．How could you not give the problem the attention it deserves
F ．How can I not want to send more problem-solvers into the world

Have you ever wished you didn’t have to wake up early and go all the way to school For 700,000 American kids, this wish comes true. 36 This kind of learning has different names: online learning or distance learning. Regardless of what it is called, this idea may create an impression of a lonely kid reading pages of information on a computer screen rather than from a book or an image of another kid spending the day playing video games instead of learning mathematics or reading a book. Where online education is concerned, both of these are false! Actually,
online learning simply means learning differently.
37 Flexibility is the main advantage. Students can attend school wherever and whenever they desire.
Homework can be turned in from anywhere the student has Internet access. Additionally, many online schools will
allow students to work at their own pace.
Another advantage of online schooling is with the variety of courses. Most online schools teach the same basic
classes like English, math, science, and history. 38 However, traditional schools are often unable to offer
these types of classes if there are not enough students.
Online schools also have different types of learning tools for kids to use. For example, many online schools
have special Web sites where only students registered in online classes can watch videos, see lessons presented, or
chat with teachers and other students. Some online schools have live class times where students can call and talk
with the teacher directly. 39
Computer technology is amazing, and we use computers for chatting with our friends, listening to music, and
playing games. 40 Since 2012, at least 38 states either have had their own online schools or made rules for
students attending them. It looks like online schools are here to stay, but only you can decide if this type of learning
is right for you.
A ．Online schools offer many benefits for the learners.
B ．Of course, there are some disadvantages of going to school online.
C ．Almost every part of our lives is affected by it, and school is no exception.
D ．They attend school over the Internet using ordinary home or library computers.
E ．Other online schools even have online clubs where kids can talk about their hobbies.
F ．Some online schools also offer specialized classes in subjects such as space science, French, or zoology.
G ．For some students, online school may be ideal, but for others, traditional school may better meet their needs.

People are taught how to speak, but good sentence structure and a wide range of vocabulary words won’t
always lead to being understood or understanding others. 16
The good news is that it’s never too late to learn how to communicate more effectively. The first step is to realize you’ re having communication issues. 17 The following is a list of the top three signs that
you need to learn healthier communication skills.
You have the same fights over and over.
Your fights are about the same topic again and again. If this is happening, it means you don’t yet have the
skills to resolve conflicts. 18 The fight may end, but it’s only a matter of time before you argue
about the same thing again. When you learn how to resolve conflicts, issues don’t pile up or become baggage that
weighs down your relationship.
19
_______
You don’t want to fight so you try not to bring up subjects that lead only to pain and disconnection. The
problem is that avoiding them leads to pain and disconnection anyway. Unless you learn how to have hard
conversations productively, you will get more and more disconnected until your relationship is in danger of ending.
You regularly feel misunderstood or unheard.
No matter how hard you try, you don’t feel understood. Perhaps your partner has expressed the same
feeling.Over time the disconnected feeling does damage to your relationship. It’s important to learn how to
communicate in a better way, so that both you and the other person feel heard and
understood. 20 To be heard, your partner will need to learn how to listen. For you, to be able to
hear your partner, you will need to do the same.
A ．You avoid discussing certain topics.
B ．You argue with your partners about some issues.
C ．If you can’t resolve issues, they will continue to show up.
D ．This requires more than just speaking to your partner or vice versa.
E ．Then, you can learn how to communicate in a more productive way.
F ．If you leave conflicts unsettled, you will feel disconnected and lonely.
G ．Effective communication requires much more than being able to speak.

Gratitude is more than just saying “thank you” to someone who has helped us or given us a gift. 16
And this positive emotion can be good for our emotional and physical health, as well as the health of our
relationships.
One reason for this is that gratitude stops us from thinking about negative emotions. Writing a “thank you”
letter, for example, shifts our attention so that we focus on positive emotions. Even if we don’t share our writing
with anyone, the act of completing the exercise alone makes us happier and more satisfied with life. And this gets better with time. As we are essentially training our brain to be more in tune with noticing the positive, after several
weeks or months, this becomes more intuitive(直觉的). 17
18 Studies prove gratitude can improve sleep quality, better eating habits, and reduced
inflammation(炎症) in people who have had heart problems.
Gratitude is clearly good for us, but is it also good for the people in our lives 19 When shared, spoken
or written gratitude is about feeling valued and helping others feel valued too. Feeling valued can help build
stronger relationships with family, partners, friends or even colleague. And that’s on top of all the other ways
gratitude is clearly good for us.
Many studies show expressing gratitude benefits people a lot including the emotional, mental and physical
health etc. 20 Let’s stop counting sheep or calorie and start counting our blessings instead.
A ．So why not do so
B ．The simple answer is “yes”
C ．We should form good habits in our daily work.
D ．Gratitude can also make us feel good in our bodies.
E ．The more we express gratitude, the more positive we feel.

Many of our memory systems are driven by one single, powerful urge: to survive. We seem to have an inborn instinct(本能) to remember routes, so we can navigate our local environments safely. 16 Ever since we lived
in groups, us humans have needed to know who’s “part of the group”, and who isn’t, as a vital part of staying safe.
And we’re excellent at remembering things that might put our wellbeing at risk. A recent research study showed
that we’re remarkably accurate at recalling anything connected with infection.
In the study, volunteers were shown a set of objects that they would be tested on later. But there was a twist.
Some of the items were held by a researcher who was said to have COVID．And guess what 17 None of the
volunteers would ever have to touch those things themselves. But their minds still prioritised them, locking in the
information for later—just in case it could keep them safe.
18 When you’ve got something important to remember, why not “tag” it with one of those
unpleasant feelings that your brain can’t help holding on to
19 Picture the bottle, and imagine opening it only to discover that it’s weeks out of date. Think
about how it would look—and smell! Thanks to the power of disgust, you’ll have a much better chance of
remembering to buy what you need.
Maybe you have to visit the library before it closes. To refresh your memory, visualise the library tables piled high with all the foods you absolutely hate. See if your instinct for self-protection keeps the library in your
thoughts more than normally!
And how about learning the password for your credit card by imagining that only the correct buttons on the
ATM are safe The first time you type the password, pretend that all the other keys are covered in deadly germs.

______
Don’t try this technique too often, though, or you’ll end up always feeling on edge! But when your memory
needs a boost a small bit of disgust can be very healthy for your recall.
A ．Make use of your drive to survive.
B ．And it’s what you can use to your advantage.
C ．Keep the “dangerous” pattern on your memory.
D ．We’re also naturally talented at recognising faces.
E ．Even imaginary dangers can sharpen our memory skills.
F ．Worried about forgetting the milk from your shopping list
G ．Those “infected” objects proved to be significantly easier to recall.

要的信息。
)
16 ．根据前文“We seem to have an inborn instinct(本能) to remember routes, so we can navigate our local
environments safely. (我们似乎天生就有记住路线的本能，这样我们就能安全地在当地环境中穿行。 )”可知， 此处强调人类凭借本能来记住路线；根据后文的“Ever since we lived in groups, us humans have needed to know who’s “part of the group”, and who isn’t, as a vital part of staying safe. (自从我们群居以来，我们人类就需要知 道谁是“群体的一部分” ，谁不是，这是保持安全的重要组成部分。 )”可知，此处强调人类也具有记住“谁是 群体一部分” 的本能即记住人脸的本能。 D 选项“We’re also naturally talented at recognising faces.(我们在识别
人脸方面也有天赋。 )”承上启下，符合语境。故选 D。
17 ．根据前文的“In the study, volunteers were shown a set of objects that they would be tested on later. (在这项研 究中， 研究人员向志愿者展示了一系列物品， 稍后他们将在这些物品上进行测试。)”可知， 此处阐述的是研 究过程， 即对志愿者们接触的物品进行测试；同时根据空前的“But there was a twist. Some of the items were held by a researcher who was said to have COVID. And guess what (但事情发生了转折。其中一些物品由一名据说 感染了新冠病毒的研究人员持有。你猜怎么着？ )”可知， 后文应该对该问题进行回答， 回答的内容应该描述 的是“被感染的物品” 。G 选项“Those “infected” objects proved to be significantly easier to recall.(事实证明，那 些“受感染” 的物体明显更容易回忆起来。 )”中的 Those “infected” objects 与前文呼应， 表示那些“未被志愿者
们接触的感染物品”更容易被记住。回答了空前所提出的问题。符合句意。故选 G。
18 ．根据后文“When you’ve got something important to remember, why not “tag” it with one of those unpleasant feelings that your brain can’t help holding on to (当你有重要的事情要记住的时候， 为什么不用那些让你的大脑 情不自禁的不愉快的感觉来“标记”它呢？ )”可知， 此处强调的是上述研究的结果， 即人类本能地会利用大脑 中那些不愉快的感觉来帮助记住一些重要的事情。B 选项“And it’s what you can use to your advantage.(这是你
可以利用的优势。 )”引起下文，即强调用人类这种特殊的本能优势来记忆重要的事情。故选 B。
19 ．根据后文“Picture the bottle, and imagine opening it only to discover that it’s weeks out of date. (想象一下这 个瓶子， 想象一下打开它， 发现它已经过期几周了。)”以及“Think about how it would look—and smell! Thanks to the power of disgust, you’ll have a much better chance of remembering to buy what you need.(想想它看起来什 么样子——和闻起来!由于厌恶的力量，你会有更好的机会记得买你需要的东西。 )”可知，本段主要介绍的 是通过想象牛奶变质带来的消极后果而加强对买牛奶的记忆。 F 选项“Worried about forgetting the milk from your shopping list (担心购物清单上忘记买牛奶？ )”提出“担心忘记购买牛奶的问题”，后文对此问题进行回答。
F 选项符合语境。故选 F。
20．根据前文“ And how about learning the password for your credit card by imagining that only the correct buttons
on the ATM are safe The first time you type the password, pretend that all the other keys are covered in deadly
germs.(想象一下只有自动柜员机上正确的按钮是安全的， 以此来了解你的信用卡密码怎么样 当你第一次输 入密码时， 假装所有其他的按键上都布满了致命的细菌。)”可知， 此处强调第一次在 ATM 上使用信用卡时， 通过想象整个 ATM 取款机上除了自己正确密码的按键外， 其余的按键都布满了致命的细菌由此让你记住信 用卡的密码。即强调充分利用自己的求生动机来记住信用卡密码。A 选项“Make use of your drive to survive.(利 用你活下去的动力。 )”符合语境，承接上文。故选 A。

Empathy, the ability to understand and co-experience the feelings and thoughts of other people, is probably
one of the most important skills a person can have. 36
Humans are social animals.
There are very few activities that humans take part in that don’t involve others. 37 It allows you to perceive others’ motives, treat them the way they want to be treated, understand how others perceive you, and so
on.
It lets you better understand non-verbal components of communication.
38 People who are not empathetic have a hard time reading between the lines of conversations. They
cannot understand that what the other person means to communicate is different from what they actually say.
39
____
When you unconsciously perceive what the other party wants and needs and can understand exactly why they
want it, reaching a “win-win” solution gets easier. You don’t have to blindly search for a way out.
It broadens your horizons.
Seeing the world from other people’s perspectives lets you perceive it to a fuller extent. When you are able to
look at life from other people’s point of view, you are able to live a more fulfilled life.
40 Thus, achieving higher levels of empathy often means achieving greater fulfilment as human
beings.
A ．It makes you better at handling conflicts.
B ．It helps you introduce your ideas to others.
C ．Empathy basically is what makes us human.
D ．Humans always live and work with each other.
E ．So why exactly is empathy so important for us
F ．Communication is so much more than what words express.
G ．Therefore, the ability to better understand others and read their feelings is an advantage.
【答案】36 ．E 37 ．G 38 ．F 39 ．A 40 ．C
【分析】这是一篇说明文。同理心，即理解并共同体验他人的情感和想法的能力，可能是一个人能拥有的
最重要的技能之一。文章主要说明了同理心对我们重要的四点原因。
36 ．根据上文“Empathy, the ability to understand and co-experience the feelings and thoughts of other people, is probably one of the most important skills a person can have.(同理心， 即理解并共同体验他人的情感和想法的能 力， 可能是一个人能拥有的最重要的技能之一)”可知， 上文解释了同理心的概念， 指出这是最重要的技能之 一，结合后文说明了同理心为什么重要， 故 E 选项“那么同理心到底为什么对我们如此重要呢？ ”符合语境，
故选 E。
37 ．根据上文“There are very few activities that humans take part in that don’t involve others.(很少有人类参与的
活动是不涉及他人的)”以及后文“It allows you to perceive others’ motives, treat them the way they want to be
treated, understand how others perceive you, and so on.(它能让你感知他人的动机， 以他们希望被对待的方式对 待他们， 理解别人如何看待你， 等等)”可知， 上文提到很少有人类参与的活动是不涉及他人， 后文则在说明
同理心的优势，可知本句与上文构成因果关系，指出能够更好地理解别人和读懂他们的感受是一种优势，
故 G 选项“ 因此，能够更好地理解别人和读懂他们的感受是一种优势”符合语境，故选 G。
38 ．根据标题“ It lets you better understand non-verbal components of communication.(·它能让你更好地理解交
流中的非语言成分)”以及后文“People who are not empathetic have a hard time reading between the lines of
conversations. They cannot understand that what the other person means to communicate is different from what
they actually say.(没有同理心的人很难从对话的字里行间读懂意思。他们无法理解对方想表达的意思和他们 实际说的不一样)”可知， 后文提到没有同理心的人无法读懂人们真正想要表达的意思， 可见本段主要是在说 明沟通不仅仅是语言表达的东西， F 选项中 Communication 对应标题中 communication。故 F 选项“沟通不仅
仅是语言表达的东西”符合语境，故选 F。
39 ．根据本段内容“When you unconsciously perceive what the other party wants and needs and can understand
exactly why they want it, reaching a “win-win” solution gets easier. You don’t have to blindly search for a way
out.(当你不自觉地感知到对方想要什么和需要什么， 并能确切地理解他们为什么想要， 达成一个“双赢” 的解 决方案会变得更容易。你不必盲目地寻找出路)”可知， 本段的中心内容是同理心可以帮助达成“双赢” ，即更
好地处理冲突，故 A 选项“它会让你更好地处理冲突”符合小标题，故选 A。
