Luther Gerlach’s images enrich the permanent collections of the J.Paul Getty Museum in Los Angeles and the
National Portrait Gallery in London, among other institutions.
While studying his work, one cannot help but revisit the journey he undertook in pursuit of art Gerlach has
dyslexia, a condition that makes it difficult for him to read and spell, and in middle school, it began to affect his
studies. At the University of Minnesota, where Gerlach studied biology, his struggle with writing reached a tipping
point Gerlach left the university and entered art school “Art has never been something that slowed me down, in
contrast to the written word,” Gerlach says.
第3页/共10页
After graduating from art school, Gerlach took what he learned and traveled across the United States selling his
prints at art fairs. It was the late 1980s, and Gerlach traveled roughly 90,000 miles a year, taking photos along the
way. He was making $100,000 a year doing what he loved.
But the emergence of digital photography changed everything. Photographers began to use Photoshop to create
the hand-brushed quality of Gerlach's photographs and told customers they were using the same process Gerlach was
usings. “I would hear them talking—complete lies,” he says.
Rather than dive into digital, Gerlach moved into a photographic process that was quite unusual: the wet
collodion （火棉胶）process, invented in 1851. The process involves coating a plate of glass or metal with collodion,
followed by using a silver nitrate （硝酸银）bath to make die plate sensitive to light The plate is then placed in a
light-tight film holder, with the photo made almost immediately while the plate is still wet.
It wasn't easy when he first started, but Gerlach has always considered “constant problem solving” to be part of
the creative process. It made Gerlach feel “present as an artist”. “I saw the final product right there in front of me.
The same leaves on the tree that I’m standing in front of are on the image,” Gerlach explains. “The process allowed
me to feel more like a photographer instead of a machine that printed prints to sell so I could make money. And when
the final product works, nothing else compares to it.”
24. Luther Gerlach’s dyslexia____________.
A. forced him to change his major B. drove him to go into business
C. made him drop out of middle school D. affected his artistic performance
25. As digital photography emerged, Luther Gerlach____________.
A. adopted a unique photographic technique
B. set off for new places to take photographs
C. praised photographers for using Photoshop
D. improved the hand-brushed quality of his photos
26. Why did Luther Gerlach prefer the wet collodion process
A. It was cheap and reliable.
B. It was easy and efficient.
C. It gave him artistic satisfaction.
D. It helped him sell prints for profit
27. What can we learn from this passage
A. Necessity inspires invention.
B. Everything comes to those who wait
C. Hope for the best; prepare for the worst
D. Dare to be different in a world of copycats.

When people view photographs of frightening spiders, scientists usually observe increased electrical activity
deep in their brain, in a region called the periaqueductal gray （PAG）. The obvious conclusion is that the PAG
controls fight-or-flight responses in threatening situations. But what if brains don't have dedicated circuits for fighting
and flighting Is threat detection really a primary mode of the brain with its own neural circuitry （神经回路）？
This idea of fight-or-flight circuits originates from the “triune brain” model dividing brains into the so-called
lizard brain, including the PAG, for survival functions, the “limbic system” for emotions, and the “neocortex” for
higher-order reasoning. If you know anything about evolution, you might know that something is spurious. The only
animal on this planet with a lizard brain is a lizard. Also, there's no unified limbic “system” or the “neocortex” for
emotions or rationality （理性）respectively. So where does this leave the fight-or-flight story
Recently, changes in PAG activity have been observed in nonthreatening tasks, such as reading a fascinating
article about the brain. The PAG has also been proved to regulate bodily systems continuously. Incidentally, this
explains why antianxiety medications manage anxiety disorders without healing them. They target brain circuits that
aren’t dedicated to anxiety or fight-or-flight but that simply regulate the body.
Researches on the brain's powers also cast new light on our understandings. In daily life, individuals might feel
like they perceive and react to various stimuli as either threatening or safe. Actually, the brain, using past experiences,
skillfully predicts and formulates action plans in anticipation of events before stimuli occur. The brain's preparatory
mechanism, metabolically （新陈代谢地）expensive, involves complicated neuronal activities for sustaining
multiple predictions and corresponding action plans over extended periods. But the experiences in fight-or-flight
responses crafted by your brain don't reveal how it works.
Moreover. your brain, which does much more than avoid threats、handles a complex social world full of
uncertainty. That’s a recipe for stress. And what is stress It reflects energy preparation for anticipated challenges.
Your brain often makes sense of metabolic cost of uncertainty, if it drags on for long enough, as anxiety, but that's
not a must People seek uncertainty out—and its positive cousin, novelty—when they try new foods or learn new
skills.
Uncertainty is common, but these days, with social media and round-the-clock news coverage, it sometimes
bombards us and leaves us anxious and exhausted. But these feelings don’t emerge from fight-or-flight circuits. They
may just mean, in an ever changing and only partly predictable world, that you’re doing something hard.
28. The author asks the questions in Paragraph I to_________.
A. evaluate a statement B. justify an assumption
C. challenge an argument D. introduce a new concept
29. Which does the underlined word “spurious” in Paragraph 2 probably mean
A. Rare. B. Wrong.
C. Limited. D. Unexpected.
30. What can we infer from this passage
A. Hunting for novelty reduces stress and anxiety.
第5页/共10页
B. Medicine targeting PAG cures anxiety disorder.
C. Uncertainty is a product of modern media and news cycles.
D. The “Fight or Flight” idea overlooks the brain's predictive power.

In the field where philosophy and neuroscience overlap, few questions have fascinated and confused humanity
as deeply as the concept of free will. At first glance, the idea that we have the power to make choices that are not
predetermined seems intuitive （直觉的）. However, a closer examination reveals a complex web of philosophical
arguments and scientific findings that challenge this seemingly straightforward concept.
From a philosophical standpoint, the debate around free will has continued intensely for centuries,
Compatibilists argue free will can coexist with determinism, as long as our actions are a result of our own desires and
motivations. For example, choosing a music career out of passion is considered as a free choice within this framework.
In contrast, incompatibilists maintain free will and determinism are mutually exclusive. Hard determinists view the
universe as a closed system governed by strict laws of nature, where every event, including human actions, is
predetermined. In this view, the idea of free will is an illusion （幻觉）.
Neurosicence has advanced markedly in decoding the brain, revealing that many actions are preceded （先于）
by neural activity. Studies on the brain’s reward system and neurotransmitters, particularly dopamine （多巴胺），
further challenge the nature of free will Addictive behaviors, for instance, can be strongly influenced by the brain's
response to dopamine. A person struggling with addiction may feel they lack the free will to resist it, as their brain
chemistry has been altered in a way that forces them into acting.
The scientific evidence is not conclusive, though. Some argue that the neural activity observed before conscious
decisions may not be the cause of the action but rather part of the preparatory process for a decision that is still freely
made. Additionally, the complexity of the human brain and the fact that much of its functioning is still not fully
understood leave room for the possibility of free will.
If free will is an illusion, it challenges our fundamental notions of moral responsibility. We praise and blame
people for their actions because we believe they could have acted differently. How can we hold individuals
accountable for their actions if they were never truly free to choose otherwise Without free will, the essential moral
framework of our societies would collapse into chaotic indifference Free will is only an illusion if you are, too.
31. Which of the following situations reflects the compatibilists’ view
A. Driven by dopamine, Tim keeps checking his social media.
B. Lucy speaks first after being randomly selected by software.
C. Exposed to a sudden blinding light, Lily quickly shuts her eyes.
D. Jerry shifts between companies of shared bikes based on discounts.
32. What can we learn from the passage
A. The altered brain chemistry enhances free will
B. Conscious decisions are independent of neural activities.
第6页/共10页
C. Hard determinists see free will vital to moral accountability.
D. Neuroscientists’ views on the causes of human actions differ.
33. As for the existence of free will, the author is___________.
A. neutral B. disapproving
C. positive D. doubtful
34. Which would be the best title for the passage
A. Does Neuroscience Threaten Free Will
B. Why the Arguments Against Free Will Fail
C. Exploration into the Complexity of Free Will
D. Free Will： Bridging Neuroscience and Philosophy

根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选
项中有两项为多余选项。
When I think of my friends, I am mostly filled with love and warmth: I simply can't wait to see them again for
their affection and support. __35__ In the right mood, these individuals can deliver a fun-filled evening, but at the
wrong moment, they can drain （耗尽）all my goodwill.
If this sounds familiar, then you too have frenemies, who psychologists call “ambivalent relationships”. These
love-hate relationships could include a friend, a parent, a colleague or even a husband or wife. Their ambivalence can
come in many forms. __36__ It could be a partner love-bombing you one day, but fiercely critical the next, leaving
you unsure about their true feelings.
__37__ At the very least, you would expect them to be better for us than our aversive （令人厌恶的）
relationships. Unfortunately, research suggest things aren't so simple. A team at the University of Utah asked people
to take a reaction-time test and they found that rapidly flashing the name of an ambivalent connection on a screen
intensified stress response of participants. Another study at Brigham Young University found that simply knowing
an ambivalent connection was nearby as participants prepared to give a speech was enough to send their blood
pressure rocketing. __38__.
Cutting ties with our ambivalent connections isn't always possible or desirable if they are deeply mixed into our
social network. So, what can be done Simply being aware of the ambivalent nature of a relationship might offer
some protection. We can manage our expectations and mentally prepare ourselves for the mixed feelings when
interacting with frenemies. __39__ As importantly, be a little more mindful of any interactions with all our ties. Show
others the appreciation and respect we feel for them, for accidental neglect could be taken as a sign of indifference,
A. It might be a friend who is often unavailable when you need his support.
B. We might hope that in such relationships, the good would outweigh the bad
C. In fact, even unconscious reminders of a frenemy can break our peace of mind.
D. This allows us to focus on their good qualities and show empathy for the unpleasant ones.
第7页/共10页
E. If you feel someone too negative a presence in your life, you may decide to cut off contact.
F. A handful, however, stimulate quite different emotions—a mixture of eagerness and anxiety.
G. After all, the benefits of social connection come from feeling well understood and supported.

Growing up, my favourite children's book was Amelia Bedelia. Amelia's silly behaviours that were a result of
her literal interpretation of language often. had me laughing. When she was told to dust the furniture, instead of
grabbing a feather duster, she sprinkled （撒）dust all over the chairs and tables, A classic moment in Amelia's life.
Recently, several of my friends have decided to limit their use of electronic devices for chatting to avoid potential
misunderstandings. Yet, I enjoy using these tools to stay connected with my children and grandchildren. But I admit
it does lead to more frequent Amelia Bedelia moments.
The other day I was providing childcare for my granddaughter Cora and her one-year-old brother, Zay. Zay was
sleeping while Cora was in her bedroom colouring, with her tablet right next to her. Hoping to have a few minutes of
peace, I told Cora I would be in the backyard and that she should call me if Zay woke up. Shortly after, the door
opened. There was Cora, red-faced, struggling to carry Zay. I quickly took him from her, gently scolding （训斥），
“Cora, I told you to call me.””
She simply replied, “Grandma, I did call you. You didn't answer. When's your phone ” Her call had come via
an app on her tablet to my phone which was on the kitchen table. Clearly, we had different ideas of what “call” meant.
As my grandchildren become more proficient （熟练）with technology and the language of a different
generation, there is no doubt our Amelia Bedelia moments will only increase. I can resist the misunderstandings by
putting my phone away, but to enjoy the smile of the loved ones, I'd rather keep it closer to me to experience the silly
accidents that will occur.
40. What caused Amelia's silly behaviours
41. Why didn't the author’s granddaughter call her the way she had expected
42. Please decide which part is false in the following statement, then underline it and explain why.
The author cherishes Amelia Bedelia moments because she wants to resist the misunderstandings.
43. If you experience an Amelia Bedelia moment, what would you do （In about 40 words ）
