【文章大意】 本文为一篇说明文,介绍了心理回避对于高一新生的危害。
1.C 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“By avoiding challenging situations, it prevents students from developing important skills, limiting their opportunities for self-discovery and improvement. The famous author J. K. Rowling once said, ‘It is impossible to live without failing in something, unless you live so carefully that you might as well not have lived at all.’”可推知,避免挑战性的情景会阻止学生进行自我发现和提高,因此,会导致他们错过宝贵的学习经验。故选C。
2.A 词义猜测题。根据画线词前文“Freshmen who turn to avoidance will always…”及后文“…or even miss deadlines. By avoiding the necessary efforts and tasks required for learning, students may struggle to gain information, reducing the opportunity to succeed in grades.”可知,选择逃避的新生总是会拖延甚至错过期限,画线词表示“拖延任务”。故选A。
3.D 细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段“High school students may avoid discussing their feelings with friends or family members…Students miss out on the chance to deepen their connections with friends, family and peers (同龄人), making it harder for them to form healthy relationships.”可知,心理回避会导致学生逃避进一步的交流,从而难以建立健康的关系。故选D。
4.C 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Breaking free from avoidance behaviours is important for academic success and self-confidence, and recognizing the harmful effects of avoidance is the first step.”可推知,文章最后提到摆脱回避行为的第一步,因此,后文会说明克服心理回避的策略。故选C。
B
【文章大意】 这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了研究表明让极度焦虑的考生在考试前写下他们的担忧可以提高他们在考试中的表现。
5.A 细节理解题。根据第一段关键句“Some students get so nervous before a test.”和“The students start worrying about the results.”可知,有些学生在考试前非常紧张,他们开始担心考试结果,由此可知,考试前,学生们可能会开始担心他们能否通过考试。故选A。
6.D 细节理解题。根据第二段关键句“Just before an exam, highly anxious test-takers spend ten minutes writing about their worries about the test.”可知,两位研究人员建议在考试前,极度焦虑的考生可以写下他们对考试的担忧,由此可知,两位研究人员的解决方案是让学生在考试前写下他们的担忧。故选D。
7.C 推理判断题。根据第四段关键句“Next, the researchers used younger students in a biology class. They told them before final exams either to write about their feelings or to think about things unrelated to the test. Professor Beilock says highly anxious students who did the writing got an average grade of B+, compared to a B-for those who did not.”可知,思考与考试无关的事情的学生平均成绩为B-,考前写了自己感受的学生平均成绩为B+,由此可知,根据Beilock教授的说法,那些思考与测试无关事情的人的表现比那些写下自己感受的人差。故选C。
8.D 推理判断题。根据最后一段“But what if students do not have a chance to write about their fears immediately before an exam Professor Beilock says students can try it themselves at home or in the library and still improve their performance.”可知,学生也可以在家里或在图书馆尝试写下自己的感受,此举仍能提高他们的表现,由此可知,从最后一段可以得知考试前在哪里写下担忧并不重要。故选D。
Ⅴ.【文章大意】 这是一篇记叙文,主要讲述了作者参加一次为期6天的野外活动,其中最难忘的经历是攀爬一个4.2米高的“毕业墙”。在攀爬过程中,作者感受到了同学们的支持和鼓励,最终成功登顶。这次经历让作者深刻体会到合作精神的重要性,以及它所带来的归属感和团结感。

Psychological avoidance (心理回避) or avoiding emotions, a common way to escape painful and uncomfortable thoughts, feelings or situations, can harm the emotional well-being and personal growth of high school freshmen. Actually, psychological avoidance can lead to increased levels of anxiety and stress. Avoiding fears and worries only allows them to grow stronger.
By avoiding challenging situations, it prevents students from developing important skills, limiting their opportunities for self-discovery and improvement. The famous author J. K. Rowling once said, “It is impossible to live without failing in something, unless you live so carefully that you might as well not have lived at all.”
Psychological avoidance directly affects how well students do in their studies. Freshmen who turn to avoidance will always procrastinate, or even miss deadlines. By avoiding the necessary efforts and tasks required for learning, students may struggle to gain information, reducing the opportunity to succeed in grades.
Psychological avoidance can also cause stress or discomfort to relationships. High school students may avoid discussing their feelings with friends or family members, leading to misunderstandings and a breakdown in communication. Instead of dealing with their emotions, they hold back or hide themselves. Students miss out on the chance to deepen their connections with friends, family and peers (同龄人), making it harder for them to form healthy relationships.
Psychological avoidance may provide comfort for a short period, but in the long run it can have negative impacts on our mental health, personal growth, academic performance, relationships and other aspects of life. Breaking free from avoidance behaviours is important for academic success and self-confidence, and recognizing the harmful effects of avoidance is the first step.

A.we fail to discover our thoughts and feelings

( )2.What does the underlined word “procrastinate” in Paragraph 3 probably mean

Some students get so nervous before a test. They do poorly even if they know the material. Sian Beilock, a professor at the University of Chicago in Illinois, has studied these highly anxious test-takers. The students start worrying about the results. And when they worry, it actually uses up attention and memory resources (资源).
Professor Beilock and another researcher, Gerardo Ramirez, have developed a possible solution. Just before an exam, highly anxious test-takers spend ten minutes writing about their worries about the test.
The researchers tested the idea on a group of twenty anxious college students. They gave them two short maths tests. After the first one, they asked the students to either sit quietly or write about their feelings about the upcoming second test.
Professor Beilock says those who sat quietly scored an average of 12% worse on the second test. But the students who had written about their fears improved their performance by an average of 5%. Next, the researchers used younger students in a biology class. They told them before final exams either to write about their feelings or to think about things unrelated to the test. Professor Beilock says highly anxious students who did the writing got an average grade of B+, compared to a B- for those who did not.
“What we showed is that for students who are highly test-anxious, who’d done our writing intervention (干预), all of a sudden there was no relationship between test anxiety and performance. They were performing just as well as their classmates who don’t normally get nervous in these tests.”
But what if students do not have a chance to write about their fears immediately before an exam Professor Beilock says students can try it themselves at home or in the library and still improve their performance.
( )5.What may the students start worrying about before an exam
A.Whether they can pass the exam.
B.What other students do during the test.
C.Whether they have remembered the materials.
D.What kind of problems they will meet on the test paper.
( )6.What is the solution developed by the two researchers
A.Asking the students to think nothing of the test.
B.Asking the students to focus on the test.
C.Asking the students to sit quietly before the test.
D.Asking the students to write about their worries before the test.
( )7.According to Professor Beilock, those who thought about things unrelated to the test .
A.became less nervous before the test
B.were better at controlling their feelings
C.did worse than those who wrote about their feelings
D.did better than those who took two tests
( )8.What can be learned from the last paragraph
A.Writing about worries before an exam can work a bit.
B.Studying in the library can improve students’ performance.
C.Students can only write about worries right before an exam.
D.It doesn’t matter where to write about worries before an exam.

exams either to write about their feelings or to think about
things unrelated to the test. Professor Beilock says highly
anxious students who did the writing got an average grade of
B+, compared to a B-for those who did not.”可知，思考与考试
无关的事情的学生平均成绩为B-，考前写了自己感受的学生平均成
绩为B+，由此可知，根据Beilock教授的说法，那些思考与测试无关
事情的人的表现比那些写下自己感受的人差。故选C。

have a chance to write about their fears immediately before an
exam Professor Beilock says students can try it themselves at

学生也可以在家里或在图书馆尝试写下自己的感受，此举仍能提高
他们的表现，由此可知，从最后一段可以得知考试前在哪里写下担
忧并不重要。故选D。
