My mother always said, “You young men should explore your own country before stepping out into the
world.” It seemed like a tough task. But luckily for me, Via Rail Canada offered youths between the ages of 18
and 25 the chance to ride the train across Canada for the month of July in 2017. I jumped at the opportunity and
secured an inexpensive ticket.
Excitement was at its peak as I approached the train station on the morning when my 22-day adventure was
to begin. I jumped on board the passenger vessel（车厢）like it was the train to Hogwarts in Harry Potter. The train
headed west in search of our first destination — the scenic town of Banff, Alberta. After just an hour on the train,
desperation already came on me. The thought of three full days on those tracks broke my spirits. As I gazed out
towards Lake Superior’s glistening（闪闪发亮）waves, I decided if I was to be stuck in here, I would need to enjoy
my time.
Those three days turned into a summer camp on rails. Real friendships with the crew were born within that
train. Stops were made in small, remote railroad villages. A large group of strangers turned travelling companions
would rush towards the villages to reward our endless patience with local cuisine. At night, we would walk to the
glass-domed（玻璃穹顶）train car, which gave a scenic view of the night sky, untouched by light pollution.
After three days, we arrived in Banff. Before my adventure of taking the train across Canada, if I could have
skipped the travel and arrived at the destination, I would have. But that is no longer true. I’ve learned that the
journey can be more enjoyable than the destination.
24. What made the author’s train trip possible?
A. The encouragement from his mother.
C. A time-limited ticket offer for youths.
B. The attraction of the splendid scenery.
C. His determination to face the tough task.
25. What did the author experience after one hour on the train?
A. Great joy. B. A dream-like trip. C. Unrealistic hopes.
26. Which of the following best describes the author as a young man?
D. Faded enthusiasm.
D. Determined.
A. Considerate.
B. Adaptable.
C. Smart.

27. What has the author learned from his adventure?
A. To enjoy travelling on his own.
B. To be content with train service.
D. To explore more in the process.
C. To skip to the final destination.

Do you always scroll aimlessly on Instagram instead of closing your eyes and counting sheep at midnight?
Or you just sit on the sofa, unable to resist the temptation to press the button for the next episode on Netflix, even
though your body screams for sleep. If your answer is definitely yes, you are probably suffering from revenge
bedtime procrastination (RBP).”
RBP is a phenomenon in which people who don’t have much control over their daytime life refuse to sleep
early in order to regain some sense of freedom during late night hours. The decision to sacrifice sleep for leisure
time is driven by a daily schedule lacking in free time.
The term was coined in 2014 by Dr. Floor Kroese, a behavioral scientist from Utrecht University, and took
off during the pandemic. Anyone can engage in it, but people with high-stress, busy lives or poor
time-management skills might be more likely to put off sleep for personal time.
Obviously, RBP can lead to sleep deprivation. Your body won’t be able to properly recharge, leading to
irritability, degraded decision-making, thinking, and memory, reduced impulse control, as well as many impaired
physical health, including being more susceptible to cardiovascular problems, metabolic disorders, obesity, and
even some infections and viruses.
How can you avoid inflicting these to yourself? One way to do this is to create a consistent bedtime and
wake-up time, including on weekends and non-working days. Make a big effort to stick with these times for at
least one to two months to make them more natural and automatic-feeling. Besides, instead of screen-based
activities such as watching videos or scrolling on social media, which are additive, numbing, and tiring for the
eyes, try to relax your body and your mind before going to bed.
RBP is harmful to your physical and mental health. Staying up a bit later to carve out some leisure time may
feel good in the short-term, but will lead to some pretty worrisome negative effects in the long-term. It’s okay if
we slip from time to time, but breaking this pernicious habit will result in a healthier, more balanced life.
28. Why does the author mention Netflix in the first paragraph?
A. To promote the use of Netflix for bedtime viewing.
B. To show the negative effects of using Netflix before bedtime.
C. To compare the use of Netflix to scrolling on social media.
D. To introduce the concept of revenge bedtime procrastination.
29. According to the passage, what can you know about revenge bedtime procrastination?
A. It is a relatively new term and mainly used during the pandemic.
B. It is a healthy way to regain control over your life.
C. It makes up for what people have no chance to do during the day but it does harm to health.
D. You can have revenge bedtime procrastination on weekends.
30. What does the word “susceptible” in Paragraph 4 mean?
A. Influential.
B. Vulnerable.
C. Reliable.
D. Resistant.
31. Which of the following titles is the most appropriate for this passage?
A. The Benefits of Scrolling on Social Media Before Bed.
B. The disadvantages of Revenge Bedtime Procrastination.
C. How Instagram and Netflix is Ruining Your Revenge Bedtime Procrastination.
D. Achieving Work-Life Balance against Revenge Bedtime Procrastination.

The City Council of Monza, Italy, a few years ago, prohibited pet owners from
keeping goldfish in curved fishbowls. The sponsors of the measure explained that it
is cruel to keep a fish in such a bowl because the curved sides give the fish a false
view of reality. Aside from the act’s significance to the poor goldfish, the story raises
an interesting philosophical question: How do we know that the reality we perceive
is true?
Physicists are finding themselves in a similar trouble to the goldfish’s. For decades they have been pursuing
an ultimate theory of everything—one complete and consistent set of fundamental laws of nature that explain
every aspect of reality. It now appears that this pursuit may generate not a single theory but a family of
interconnected theories, each describing its own version of reality, as if it viewed the universe through its own
fishbowl. This concept may be difficult for many people to accept. Most people believe that there is an objective
reality out there and that our senses and our science directly convey (传达) information about the material world.
In philosophy, that belief is called realism.
In physics, realism is becoming difficult to defend. Instead, the idea of alternative realities is a mainstay of
today’s popular culture. For example, in the science-fiction film The Matrix the human race is unknowingly living
in a simulated (模拟的 ) virtual reality created by intelligent computers. How do we know we are not just
computer-generated characters living in a Matrix-like world? If—like us—the beings in the simulated world could
not observe their universe from the outside, they would have no reason to doubt their own pictures of reality.
Similarly, the goldfish’s view is not the same as ours from outside their curved bowl. For instance, because
light bends as it travels from air to water, a freely moving object that we would observe to move in a straight line
would be observed by the goldfish to move along a curved path. The goldfish could form scientific laws from
their frame (框架) of reference that would always hold true and that would enable them to make predictions about
the future motion of objects outside the bowl. If the goldfish formed such a theory, we would have to admit the
goldfish’s view as a reasonable picture of reality.
The goldfish example shows that the same physical situation can be modeled in different ways, each
employing different fundamental elements and concepts. It might be that to describe the universe we have to
employ different theories in different situations. It is not the physicist’s traditional expectation for a theory of
nature, nor does it correspond to our everyday idea of reality. But it might be the way of the universe.
32. Why did The City Council of Monza banned owners from keeping goldfish in curved fishbowls?
A. Because such fishbowls are harmful to the growth of goldfish.
B. Because goldfish may perceive the reality wrongly in such fishbowls.
C. Because the freedom of fish will be restricted in such fishbowls.
D. Because such fishbowls might influence the overall beauty of the reality.
33. What does Paragraph 2 mainly tell us?
A. The conventional insight of reality.
B. The lasting conflict in physics.
D. The need for a complete theory.
C. The existence of the material world.
34. What can we learn from the passage?
A. An external world is independent of the observers.
B. People’s theories are influenced by their viewpoints.
C. It is essential to figure out which picture of reality is better.
D. Nature’s mysteries are best left undiscovered.
35. According to the passage, the author may agree that ________.
A. There is still possibility to unify different theories into a single one.
第 5页共 8页

B. Multiple realities can be pieced together to show the real world.
C. Physicists have a favorite candidate for the final theory.
D. Various interpretations of the universe are welcomed.

Four Tips for High School Graduates
Over three-million high school students are graduating this spring in the United States. Many of them will
head to university in the fall. The transition (过渡 ) from high school to college is a major one, and successful
adjustment to college has lifelong influences.
Maybe you are about to make this transition yourself or have children who are about to leave the
nest.
36
If you know someone who is making this transition or know parents guiding their soon-to-be
adult kids through this time, please take a moment to share this collection of research-based tips with them.
Be open to making new friends as soon as you set foot on campus, even during orientation ( 迎新
会)! 37 Your success in college depends, in part, on surrounding yourself with others who can support
you and help you have fun.
38
Successful adjustment is about reaching out for help when you need it. This means trying to find
the answers on your own first, but then contacting those who can help you when you can't. That is what they are
there for!
Lean on your family. Family support can give you comfort when classes get hard or you are stressed about
finals.
39
Strong support from family is linked to lower loneliness and depression during the first year of
college and higher academic adjustment including motivation and concentration.
Be confident. Feeling anxiety about communicating with fellows, professors, and speaking up in class is
associated with lower adaptation during the transition to college. One of the best ways to increase your
communication confidence is to practice!
A. This list is for you.
40
B. The more you speak up in class, the easier it becomes.
C. Don't be afraid to talk to your professors or teaching assistants.
D. Joining clubs is also linked to feelings of belonging at college.
E. Your professors and teaching assistants want to see you succeed in their classes.
F. Almost everyone is in the same boat as you are, hoping to make friends quickly.
G. Family members can give you advice and help you solve problems if you need help.

No matter what I did, I couldn’t please my mother-in-law. For the first years of my marriage, I tried
everything. Every time she flew across the country for her two-week annual visit, I felt judged. My dinner was not
as good as hers, my floor wasn’t as clean as hers, and my parenting skills weren’t in line with hers. It was as if her
disapproval threw a heavy blanket over my spirit.
I would never be able to meet her expectations. Still, I tried. I scrubbed the floor and she complained I cared
too much about the house being clean. I shopped for her favorite foods, but she grumbled that I pushed myself too
hard for perfection. I made dinner quickly with her recipes, but she turned up her nose as she ate them. I prayed
for her as I sat next to her in church, but she criticized the sermon for being too long. I kept my mouth shut but
fumed with anger inside.
Finally, I stopped trying. I cheered when my husband drove her to the airport after her visits. I admitted to
myself that I didn’t like my mother-in-law.
I kept praying for her, though. And then I felt like God said, “I want you to call your mother-in-law and ask
her if she wants you to pray with her every week on the phone.” That was ridiculous. But the idea wouldn’t go
away. I followed my heart and called her one Sunday morning. I thought she would laugh when I suggested we
pray together on the phone.
But she didn’t laugh. She said, “I’d love you to call every Sunday and pray”. So, I did. I didn’t know what to
say, so I prayed the 23rd Psalm(赞美诗) and inserted her first name, making it a personal prayer.
Her declining health prevented her coming for regular visits. Praying with her on the phone was continued.
The years sailing by, her day was brightened, which was told by her daughter later on.
注意：
1.续写词数应为150左右；
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
One Sunday after our prayer, she said, “That was great! I love you so much.”
Two years later, in her funeral, Psalm 23 was read.
