"To get ahead in this world, don't we need a little bit of perfectionism " As someone who has researched perfectionism for over a decade, I'm asked this question a lot. And I used to think that was true. It's hard to succeed nowadays. You've got to sacrifice yourself, keep pushing well beyond what's comfortable, and live life on your tiptoes. That's just the common things in a competitive society where there are only a few winners, I believed.
Yet, research finds that perfectionism has no relationship with performance. Perfectionistic people struggle really hard, but they're no more likely to be successful. One reason is that perfectionistic people work hard but unsustainably so. They often find themselves in the sapping zone and opposite returns on their efforts.
Another is that many perfectionists are world champions at self-doubt. When things get tough, when it looks like failure is heading their way, the anticipated shame and embarrassment are so fierce that perfectionistic people are unwilling to put forth any further effort that might allow others to discover their shortcomings. So, they simply give up to avoid fears of failure, which makes failure more likely.
For perfectionists, dialing down goals and aiming for excellence instead doesn't usually work. On the contrary, it's important to learn to embrace the inevitability of setbacks, failures, and things not going quite as planned. It's important to be able to sit comfortably with these humanizing experiences, to let them be, and not need to drive them out of existence.
So we shouldn't struggle to be perfect because perfectionism doesn't lead to success. Instead, do recognize that learning to embrace imperfections and setbacks helps us to accept ourselves and keep moving forward.
24. What is the author's initial belief about perfectionism
A. It has no relationship with performance.
B. It leads to self-doubt and fear of failure.
C. It is unsustainable and leads to burnout.
D. It is necessary for success in tough society.
25. What does the underlined word "sapping" mean in paragraph 2
A. Falling. B. Reserving. C. Exciting. D. Refreshing
26. Why do many perfectionists give up when faced with challenges
A. They are not willing to work hard.
B. They are afraid of shame from failure.
C. They are unwilling to accept any failure.
D. They are unable to dial down their goals.
27. What is the best title of the text
A. Why You Should Embrace "Good Enough"
B. Why Kids Need "Intelligent Failure"
C. What Is A Better Way To Seek Guidance
D. What We Can benefit From Perfectionism
C
For years, Egyptologists have debated how the massive pyramids of ancient Egypt were built over 4,000 years ago. A new theory by engineers and geologists suggests a hydraulic(液压的) lift device that used stored water to float the heavy stones up through the middle of Egypt's oldest pyramid.
The Step Pyramid, built for Pharaoh Djoser around the 27th century BCE, was the tallest structure of its time, standing about 62 meters tall. Despite numerous discussions on pyramid-building techniques, how these massive stones, some weighing 300 kilograms, were moved remains a mystery. According to a study, a hydraulic lift system consistent with the pyramid's internal architecture could explain its construction.
The research team proposed that ancient streams from the west of the Saqqara plateau flowed into deep-water trenches and tunnels surrounding the Step Pyramid. These waters would have filled the Gisr el-Mudir, a massive limestone structure acting as a dam to control and store floodwater. This water could have powered a hydraulic lift within the pyramid's vertical shaft(竖井), raising heavy stones.
Although the theory is innovative, some Egyptologists remain unconvinced. A more widely accepted theory is that ramps and haulage(货运) devices were used to position the heavy blocks. Dr. David Jeffreys of University College London argues that the ancient climate may not have supported such a hydraulic system, as it required more rainfall than was likely available.
The study's authors acknowledged that the hydraulic lift system might not have been permanently filled with water but rather operated during periods of flash floods. More research is needed to understand the rainfall and flooding during that era. Past studies have also explored the Nile's role in pyramid construction. A previous study suggested a dried-up branch of the river has been used to transport limestone blocks. While there is evidence that ancient Egyptians used scaffolding(脚手架) and mud-brick ramps, there is no documentation of a water-powered lift.
Despite the lack of definitive evidence, the hydraulic lift theory offers a fresh perspective on how the ancient Egyptians could have accomplished such a monumental feat. Further research may uncover more about the methods used to build these iconic structures.
28.Which is a possible method for building the pyramids according to the passage
A. Using a hydraulic lift device.
B. Using scaffolding and mud-brick ramps.
C. Using only slopes and transport devices.
D. Using the Nile River to transport limestone blocks.
29.What did the hydraulic lift system in the pyramid rely on to function
A. Water transported by slaves.
B. Continuous water from the Nile
C. Rainfall from the Saqqara plateau.
D. Ancient streams and water stored in a dam.
30.Why are some Egyptologists unconvinced by the hydraulic lift theory
A. They prefer traditional methods.
B. There is no archeological evidence.
C. The ancient climate can't sustain the hydraulic system.
D. Ancient Egyptians lacked the technology for such a system.
31.What can be inferred from paragraph 5
A. The ancient climate can support the hydraulic system.
B. Ancient Egyptians only used ramps and scaffolding.
C. The evidence of water-powered lifts has been found.
D. The Nile River was essential for transporting blocks.
D
Damian Stefaniuk and his colleagues at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have developed a novel energy storage device—a supercapacitor— using three basic, inexpensive materials: water, cement, and a soot(煤灰), which can carry electricity.
Supercapacitors are highly efficient at storing energy but differ from batteries in some important ways. They can charge much more quickly than a lithium(锂) battery and don't experience the same level of performance decline over time. But supercapacitors also release the power they store rapidly, making them less useful in devices such as mobile phones, laptops or electric cars where a steady supply of energy is needed over an extended period of time.
Yet according to Stefaniuk, these supercapacitors could make an important contribution to efforts to reduce carbon emissions and make the global economy more environmentally friendly. "If it can be scaled up, the technology can help solve an important issue— the storing of renewable energy," he says.
He and his fellow researchers at MIT envision several applications for their supercapacitors. One might be to create roads that store solar energy and then release it to recharge electric cars wirelessly as they drive along a road. The rapid release of energy from the supercapacitors would allow vehicles to get a rapid boost to their batteries. Another application would be using supercapacitors in the foundations or walls of houses, so that these parts of the house not only support the structure but also store energy.
"But it's still early stages. Right now, the supercapacitor made from building materials can only store just under 300 watt-hours per cubic meter, enough to power a 10-watt LED light for 30 hours. The power might seem low compared to regular batteries, but a foundation made from 30-40 cubic meters of this material could meet the daily energy needs of a house," says Stefaniuk. "Since this material is used so widely around the world, it has the potential to be very competitive and useful for energy storage."
32. What might be an advantage of supercapacitors
A. They require little care.
B. They are lighter in design.
C. They release power in a stable manner.
D. They continue to work effectively over time.
33. How does the author highlight the application of supercapacitors
A. By providing examples. B. By giving instructions.
C By making comparisons. D. By presenting cause and effect.
34. Which of the following can be inferred about the supercapacitor technology
A. It is still developing and has great potential.
B. It will be limited to small-scale applications.
C. It is efficient enough to help replace batteries.
D. It will become widely used in everyday devices.
35. What is the purpose of this text
A. To present a difficult problem. B. To advocate a timely action.
C. To introduce a possible solution. D. To explain a complex process.

Olympic medals are among the most respected honors in the sporting world, symbolizing not only athletic victory, but also the rich history, fine craftsmanship, and longstanding traditions of the Games. 36.________ Are they made entirely of gold, silver, and bronze And what makes the Paris 2024 Olympic medals special
Originally, Olympic winners in 776 BCE were honored with olive wreaths (橄榄花环) rather than medals. The concept of medals as we know them today first emerged at the 1896 Athens Games. However, solid gold medals were no longer awarded after 1912. 37.________ As a result, the International Olympic Committee later updated the regulations regarding medal composition and design.
Modern gold medals are primarily composed of 92.5% silver with a six-gram gold plating for appearance. 38.________ They contain at least 92.5% pure silver, and bronze medals consist of 95% copper and 5% zinc(锌). This mixture ensures the medals' longevity and makes them cheaper. An Olympic gold medal may be worth over 500, but its value to athletes goes beyond its financial worth.
39.________ For instance, the 2012 London Olympics medals featured the River Thames and London skyline. Rio 2016 focused on sustainability by using leftover mirrors and X-ray plates. Tokyo 2020 medals, made from recycled electronics, emphasized technological innovation.
For the Paris 2024 Olympics, the medals are particularly distinctive. Each features a hexagon (六边形) with the Paris 2024 logo on one side and Nike, the Greek goddess of victory, in front of the Eiffel Tower on the other. 40.________ As Thierry Reboul, creative director of Paris 2024, stated, "These medals offer athletes a physical piece of Paris to take home."
A. Pure gold is soft and easily damaged.
B. When were these medals first introduced
C. Who is responsible for designing the medals
D. Silver medals, by contrast, live up to their names.
E. With these symbols, they honor the history of the Olympics.
F. Unique to this year, the medals use metal from the Eiffel Tower.
G. The design of medals reflects the host city's distinct style and values.

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
In a coastal village named Seaford, lived a courageous young woman named Amelia. Amelia was known throughout Seaford for her adventurous nature. From the moment she could walk, she would eagerly run towards the crashing waves, feeling the sand between her toes and the cool spray of the ocean mist on her face. She was a woman with a strong will and possessed a heart full of kindness. Amelia's love for the ocean was intense, and she spent most of her days exploring the beautiful beaches and sparkling waters that surrounded her house.
One sunny morning, while Amelia was walking along the shore, she noticed a group of restless seagulls abnormally circling above the crashing waves. Their unusual calls echoed (回) through the air. Concerned for their well-being, she followed their flight pattern, her instincts guiding her toward danger.
As she approached a towering cliff, Amelia gasped in horror. On a narrow ledge (岩架), high above the violent waves, was a young dolphin trapped in a thick fishing net. Its shiny body shone under the golden rays of the sun, but its freedom was cruelly limited by the trap. With each struggle, the net tightened around its delicate body, leaving painful marks on its skin. Its tail flapped helplessly, each movement a request for help, while its desperate cries for assistance echoed through the air.
A sense of urgency filled her, pushing her forward with determination and resolve. Realizing that time was tight, Amelia knew she had to act instantly to free this innocent creature from its difficult position before it submitted to exhaustion or the force of the tides.
注意: 续写词数应为150左右。
Paragraph 1:
Without hesitation, Amelia rushed back to the village. __________________________________

解析:This is Ellen Coyle with Talk About the News. In today’s world, some might argue that it doesn’t really matter where you live. That’s not true, according to Richard Florida.
In his book Who’s Your City Richard Florida says the decision about where to live may be the most important one you make. Richard thinks that people tend to gather in certain cities according to the work they do and even the type of personalities they have. Some cities, such as Boston, lead the way in technology and innovation. New York and London are financial centers. Cities like Los Angeles make quality films. Others like Guadalajara are known mainly for producing various products. Why are some cities centers of creativity while others are more likely to focus on producing things Richard uses recent research to suggest that personality may play a role.
Cities like Boston are home to people who are open to experience. They like high levels of activity and new ideas. Most technology companies are in or near these centers of creativity. In cities like Guadalajara, residents are both hard-working and agreeable. They tend to follow rules and work well on teams, qualities that are important in manufacturing.

解析:细节理解题。根据第三段"When things get tough, when it looks like failure is heading their way, the anticipated shame and embarrassment are so fierce that perfectionistic people are unwilling to put forth any further effort that might allow others to discover their shortcomings. So, they simply give up to avoid fears of failure, which makes failure more likely. (当事情变得艰难,当看起来失败即将来临的时候,预期的羞耻和尴尬是如此强烈,以至于完美主义者不愿意再付出任何努力,因为这可能会让别人发现他们的缺点。所以,他们干脆放弃以避免对失败的恐惧,这反而使失败更有可能发生。)"可知,很多完美主义者面对挑战时放弃是因为害怕失败带来的羞耻感。故选B。
27.答案:A
解析:标题归纳题。文章先是阐述了人们对于完美主义的常见看法以及作者最初的观点,接着通过分析指出完美主义与成功并无关联,还说明了完美主义者容易因害怕失败的羞耻感而放弃等问题,最后得出结论我们不应追求完美,要学会接纳不完美和挫折,所以"Why You Should Embrace 'Good Enough'(为什么你应该接纳'足够好')"作为标题最能体现文章主旨,即倡导接纳不完美。故选A。
C
28.答案:A
解析:细节理解题。根据第一段"a hydraulic(液压的) lift device that used stored water to float the heavy stones up through the middle of Egypt's oldest pyramid"可知,新理论认为,古埃及金字塔是利用一种液压升降装置建成的,这种装置利用储存的水将沉重的石头浮起。故选A。
29.答案:D
解析:细节理解题。根据第三段"...ancient streams from the west of the Saqqara plateau flowed into deep-water trenches and tunnels... acting as a dam to control and store floodwater."和"This water could have powered a hydraulic lift"可知,来自高原西部的溪流会流入金字塔周围的沟渠和隧道,形成一个用作控制和储存洪水的大坝,给液压升降机提供动力。故选D。
30.答案:C
解析:词义猜测题。根据第四段"the ancient climate may not have supported such a hydraulic system, as it required more rainfall than was likely available"可知,一些埃及古物学家们不相信液压升降装置理论主要是因为他们认为古时候的气候条件可能没办法支持这样的液压系统,因为它需要的降雨量比当时实际可用的降雨量要多,,C项中的sustain与原文中的supported 语义相近,意为"支持;维持"。故选C。
31.答案:D
解析:推理判断题。根据第五段"Past studies have also explored...a dried-up branch of the river has been used to transport limestone blocks."可知,尼罗河的一条干涸支流被用来运输石灰岩块,由此可推知,尼罗河对于运输石块是极其重要的。故选D。
D
32.答案:D
解析:细节理解题。根据第二段"They can charge much more quickly than a lithium(锂) battery and don't experience the same level of performance decline over time."可知,超级电容器与锂电池相比,不会随着时间出现同样程度的性能下降,即它们能长时间持续有效地工作。故选D。
33.答案:A
解析:推理判断题。根据第四段"He and his fellow researchers at MIT envision several applications for their supercapacitors. One might be to create roads that store solar energy and then release it to recharge electric cars wirelessly as they drive along a road. Another application would be using supercapacitors in the foundations or walls of houses, so that these parts of the house not only support the structure but also store energy."可知,通过列举在道路上以及房屋基础或墙壁中的应用等例子,来突出超级电容器的应用情况,所以是通过举例的方式。故选A。
34.答案:A
解析:推理判断题。根据最后一段"But it's still early stages. Right now, the supercapacitor made from building materials can only store just under 300 watt-hours per cubic meter...Since this material is used so widely around the world, it has the potential to be very competitive and useful for energy storage."可知,目前超级电容器技术还处于早期阶段,不过鉴于其使用材料在全球应用广泛,有很大的潜力,所以可以推断出它仍在发展且潜力巨大。故选A。
35.答案:C
解析:推理判断题。文章开篇介绍了一种新型的超级电容器,接着阐述了它的优势、应用设想以及目前的发展阶段和潜力等内容,整体是在向读者介绍这种可能有助于解决能源存储等问题的方案,所以目的是介绍一种可能的解决方案。故选C。

解析:56.考查动词的时态和主谓一致。句意:在过去的几年里,它已经显示出彻底改变我们生活的力量。根据时间状语"During the past few years"可知,应用现在完成时,主语it和动词reveal之间是主动关系。主语是单数,助动词应用has。故填has revealed。
57.考查非谓语动词。句意:AR应用程序和设备现在可以作为教育辅助工具,如果使用得当,可以让学生以一种互动和参与的方式学习。分析句子结构可知,句中已有谓语动词,设空处应用非谓语动词。主语AR apps and devices与use之间是被动关系,应用过去分词作状语。故填used。

62.考查动词的时态、语态和主谓一致。句意:尽管在教育中使用AR有许多优势,但并不是每个人都相信这是一个积极的发展。根据上下文可知,时态为一般现在时。主语everybody为单数,和动词convince之间存在被动关系。故填is convinced。

第二节
答案:
Without hesitation, Amelia rushed back to the village. She gathered the villagers to join her in the rescue. Amelia led the way, carefully moving along the steep cliff edge until she reached the dolphin. As she drew closer, she noticed tears streaming out of the creature's eyes, as if it knew its fate was in their hands. Amelia carefully freed the dolphin from the net. Then Amelia and the villagers guided it down to the waiting boat. Then they made their way back to the shore and treated the injuries of the dolphin.
As the dolphin was gently released into the calm, welcoming waters, it hesitated for a moment. Amelia approached the dolphin and gently stroked it. The dolphin touched the girl with the tip of its nose in response and made happy sounds as if to say a final thank you before diving gracefully beneath the surface. The crowd erupted in applause, their hearts filled with joy and gratitude for being witness to such a remarkable rescue. Amelia's courage and compassion were an inspiration to all who heard her story.
