Just abut 50 years ag, needing mney t supprt my family—my nvels weren’t bestsellers—I had the idea f taking the lngest train trip imaginable and writing a travel bk abut it. The trip was imprvisatinal (即兴的). I didn’t have a credit card. I had n idea where I’d be staying nr hw lng this trip wuld take. And I’d never written a travel bk befre. I hped my trip wuldn’t suffer a lt, thugh it was bviusly a leap in the dark.
I set ff with ne small bag cntaining clthes, a map f Asia, a travel guidebk and sme travelers’ cheques. I was ften incnvenienced, smetimes threatened, nw and then disturbed fr bribes, ccasinally laid up with fd pisning—all this vivid detail fr my narrative.
What I repeated in the mre than fur-mnth trip was the pleasure f the sleeping car. Writing n bard the Khyber Mail t Lahre in Pakistan, “The rmance assciated with the sleeping car cmes frm the fact that it is extremely private, cmbining the best features f a cupbard with frward mvement. Whatever drama is being shwn in this mving bedrm is heightened by the landscape passing the windw...” A train is a carrier that allws residence.
I wrte The Great Railway Bazaar n my return in 1974, and it appeared t gd reviews and quick sales. That’s the past. Nthing is the same. All travel is time-related. All such trips are singular and unrepeatable. It’s nt just that the steam trains f Asia are gne, but much f the peace and rder is gne. Wh’d risk an Iranian train nw r take a bus thrugh Afghanistan?
But I’ve been surprised by sme f the mre recent develpments in travel. I rde n Chinese trains fr a year and wrte Riding the Irn Rster, but nw China has much cleaner and swifter trains and mdernized destinatins. A traveler tday culd take the same trip I tk in 1986—1987 and prduce a cmpletely different bk.
All travel bks are dated. That’s their fault that they’re utdated, and it’s their virtue that they preserve smething f the past that wuld therwise be lst.

Happiness, as I see it, cmprises five elements: spiritual well-being (meaning and purpse), physical well-being (nutritin, exercise), intellectual well-being (curisity, deep learning), relatinal well-being (kindness and genersity), and emtinal well-being (cultivating psitive emtins). As an interdependent aggregate f these five elements f SPIRE, happiness is abut much mre than experiencing pleasure.
As Aristtle put it, happiness is the ultimate purpse f life, meaning hw we spend ur everyday lives is ultimately guided by what we think wuld make us happier. This is nt a gd r a bad thing. It simply is, like the law f nature. Even peple wh are tirelessly wrking fr an imprtant cause, fr example, t get rid f wrld hunger, are ding it because they find their wrk meaningful. Meaning is an element f happiness.
One barrier t happiness has t d with the expectatin that happiness is an unbrken chain f psitive emtins. This expectatin, hwever, prevents peple frm experiencing happiness because painful emtins dn’t g away but grw strnger when we reject them.
The secnd barrier has t d with equating happiness with success. It’s a cmmnly held belief that happiness can be attained by achieving certain gals, like mney r fame. Peple tend t think if they finally find success, they will autmatically becme happy.
The third barrier has t d with the way peple pursue happiness. We want t be happy fr many reasns. After all, we are cnstantly tld that happiness is gd fr ur health, relatinships, and wrk utcmes. Yet, if I wake up in the mrning and decide t pursue happiness straight, I will becme less happy.
But hw? Indirectly. As is knwn, if yu lk up at the sun directly, yu’ll hurt yurself. But if yu take the same sun rays and break them dwn, yu’ll enjy the clrs f a rainbw. Similarly, pursuing happiness directly can hurt us; pursuing it indirectly—by breaking it dwn int smething like the SPIRE elements—can cntribute t ur well-being. Starting a meditatin practice, exercising, perfrming acts f kindness, learning smething new, r expressing gratitude fr what we have are all indirect ways f pursuing happiness.
8. What des the underlined wrd “aggregate” prbably mean in the first paragraph?
A. Cmbinatin.B. Cnclusin.C. Accumulatin.D. Assciatin.
9. What’s the authr’s attitude twards hw we spend ur daily lives?
A. Favrable.B. Suspicius.C. Objective.D. Indifferent.
10. What can we knw frm the text?
A. Being a success leads ne t happiness.
B. Refusing negative feelings helps us btain happiness.
C. Ging after happiness directly makes ne feel happy.
D. Pursuing ne aspect f SPIRE can bst ur well-being.
11. Why is the sun mentined in the last paragraph?
A. T make a cntrast.B. T make an analgy.
C. T cnclude the argumentatin.D. T answer the previus questin.
D
Yu are what yu eat — and what yu eat may be encded in yur DNA. Studies have indicated that yur genetics play a rle in determining the fds yu find delicius r disgusting. “Everything has a genetic cmpnent, even if it’s small,” says Janne Cle, a geneticist and a prfessr at the University f Clrad Schl f Medicine. “We knw there is sme genetic cntributin t why we eat the fds we eat. Can we take the next step and actually shw the exact psitin f the regins in the genme (染色体)?”
A new research led by Cle has gtten a step clser. Thrugh a large-scale genmics analysis, her team has identified 481 genme regins that were directly linked t dietary patterns and fd preferences. The findings were presented at the American Sciety fr Nutritin’s annual flagship cnference.
They were based n a 2020 Nature Cmmunicatins study by Cle and her clleagues that used data frm the U. K. Bibank, a public database f the genetic and health infrmatin f 500,000 participants. By scanning genmes, the new analysis was able t hme in n 194 regins assciated with dietary patterns and 287 linked t specific fds such as fruit, cheese, fish, tea and alchl.
“This study had a huge number f subjects, s that’s really pwerful,” says Mnica Dus, an assciate prfessr at the University f Michigan, wh wasn’t a part f the new research but studies the relatinship between genes and nutritin. “The ther thing that I thught was really great is that they have s many different characteristics that they’re measuring in respect t diet. They had chlesterl, the bdy, sciecnmic backgrunds.”
As the research advances, Dus says such genme analyses culd pssibly help health care prviders — and even plicymakers — address larger issues that affect fd access and health. “Instead f trying t bsess ver telling peple t eat this r that, a mre pwerful interventin is t link it t making sure there aren’t ‘fd deserts’ r t make sure that there’s a higher minimum wage — things that have a brader impact,” she says.
12. What is the purpse f Cle’s new research?
A. T encde the rle f DNA in determining fd chices.
B. T select genetic cmpnents tightly related t fd cnsumptin.
C. T figure ut the relatinship between genetics and fd preferences.
D. T identify specific regins in the genme related t fd preferences.
13. What’s paragraph 3 mainly abut?
A. The prcess f the study.B. The findings f the study.
C. The data-surce f the study.D. The significance f the study.
14. What des Mnica Dus mean in the text?
A. The subjects f the study are pwerful.
B. The research team studied many aspects linking t diet.
C. The genme analyses have n prspect in the future.
D Peple’s wage shuld be raised because f “fd deserts”.
15. Which f the fllwing can be the best title f the text?
A. What Yu Eat Impacts Yur Health
B. What Yu Eat Frms Yur Dietary Pattern
C. Yur Genes May Determine Yur Nutritinal Need
D. Yur Genes May Influence What Yu Like t Eat

My father, Michael, led me thrugh the little wden huse he’d filled with his paintings. “When I have an exhibitin ...” he began, pinting t the artwrks he’d created, befre stpping. “Pr Pa,” I thught. In 1994 he gt Parkinsn’s Disease (帕金森氏病), which had shcked the whle family as he was nly in his frties.
A husband and father t three, Pa had had a successful career running an advertising agency and had always been extremely creative. Outside f wrk, he’d spent 15 years frnting the cver band, Musical Chairs, which perfrmed at the pub in Sydney’s Duble Bay each week and, when I became a mther, he develped a very clse bnd with my daughter.
Even when his Parkinsn’s advanced, my father decided he wanted t paint. “Why dn’t yu try classes?”my mum Luisa suggested t him. He agreed. In art lessns, the class practised painting still life bjects, like pears, but my father had ther ideas fr his inspiratin. He began prducing abstract pieces, inspired by his favurite artist, Jacksn Pllck, a leading abstract expressinist. “Why abstract?” I asked him. “Because,” he replied,“it helps us t see the wrld arund us in a different way. Yu can lk at these paintings and ask ‘what if?’”
Sn, I realized he was right. When I bserved my father’s wrk, I culd interpret each f them in many ways. Once he gt started, he shwed n signs f slwing dwn. The little huse was quickly filled with mre and mre wrks.
But in 2019, Pa develped cancer and was given just three mnths t live.

【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段的“The rmance assciated with the sleeping car cmes frm the fact that it is extremely private(卧铺车厢的浪漫之处在于它非常私密)”可知，作者认为卧铺车厢私密性好，这是作者一再提及卧铺车厢的原因。故选B项。

词义猜测题。该句前文“That’s the past.(那是过去的事了。)”讲到上面所讲述的有关火车的美好经历都已经是过去的事了，而该句后文内容“All travel is time-related. All such trips are singular and unrepeatable. It’s nt just that the steam trains f Asia are gne, but much f the peace and rder is gne.(所有的旅行都与时间有关。所有这些旅行都是独一无二的，不可重复的。不仅是亚洲的蒸汽火车消失了，而且大部分的和平与秩序也消失了。)”则讲到随着时间和社会的发展，旅行以及旅行方式也随之发生了变化，交通工具不一样了，和平秩序也消失了。由此可知，作者想通过“Nthing is the same”这句话表达“交通方式和旅行本身都随着时间（社会）的发展而变化了很多”这一含义。故选D项。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段内容“All travel bks are dated. That’s their fault that they’re utdated, and it’s their virtue that they preserve smething f the past that wuld therwise be lst.(所有的旅行书籍都注明了日期。这是它们的错，它们已经过时了，它们的美德是它们保留了一些原本会丢失的过去。)”可知，在作者看来，旅行书籍具有时效性，会过时，其记录下来的旅途过程会成为一种“过去”，这反而是其值得珍惜的地方，因为过去会被遗忘，而这个对旅途过程的记录会将“过去”保存。由此可推知，作者认为旅途过程才是真正意义所在。因此，作者应是同意选项D“The jurney, nt the arrival matters.(重要的是旅程，而不是到达。)”的观点。故选D项。

Happiness, as I see it, cmprises five elements: spiritual well-being (meaning and purpse), physical well-being (nutritin, exercise), intellectual well-being (curisity, deep learning), relatinal well-being (kindness and genersity), and emtinal well-being (cultivating psitive emtins). As an interdependent aggregate f these five elements f SPIRE, happiness is abut much mre than experiencing pleasure.
As Aristtle put it, happiness is the ultimate purpse f life, meaning hw we spend ur everyday lives is ultimately guided by what we think wuld make us happier. This is nt a gd r a bad thing. It simply is, like the law f nature. Even peple wh are tirelessly wrking fr an imprtant cause, fr example, t get rid f wrld hunger, are ding it because they find their wrk meaningful. Meaning is an element f happiness.
One barrier t happiness has t d with the expectatin that happiness is an unbrken chain f psitive emtins. This expectatin, hwever, prevents peple frm experiencing happiness because painful emtins dn’t g away but grw strnger when we reject them.
The secnd barrier has t d with equating happiness with success. It’s a cmmnly held belief that happiness can be attained by achieving certain gals, like mney r fame. Peple tend t think if they finally find success, they will autmatically becme happy.
The third barrier has t d with the way peple pursue happiness. We want t be happy fr many reasns. After all, we are cnstantly tld that happiness is gd fr ur health, relatinships, and wrk utcmes. Yet, if I wake up in the mrning and decide t pursue happiness straight, I will becme less happy.
But hw? Indirectly. As is knwn, if yu lk up at the sun directly, yu’ll hurt yurself. But if yu take the same sun rays and break them dwn, yu’ll enjy the clrs f a rainbw. Similarly, pursuing happiness directly can hurt us; pursuing it indirectly—by breaking it dwn int smething like the SPIRE elements—can cntribute t ur well-being. Starting a meditatin practice, exercising, perfrming acts f kindness, learning smething new, r expressing gratitude fr what we have are all indirect ways f pursuing happiness.
8. What des the underlined wrd “aggregate” prbably mean in the first paragraph?
A. Cmbinatin.B. Cnclusin.C. Accumulatin.D. Assciatin.
9. What’s the authr’s attitude twards hw we spend ur daily lives?
A. Favrable.B. Suspicius.C. Objective.D. Indifferent.
10. What can we knw frm the text?
A. Being a success leads ne t happiness.
B. Refusing negative feelings helps us btain happiness.
C. Ging after happiness directly makes ne feel happy.
D. Pursuing ne aspect f SPIRE can bst ur well-being.
11. Why is the sun mentined in the last paragraph?
A. T make a cntrast.B. T make an analgy.
C. T cnclude the argumentatin.D. T answer the previus questin.
【答案】8. A 9. C 10. D 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。作者探讨了幸福的五大组成部分（SPIRE）及三种追求幸福路上的障碍，并认为间接追求幸福是最好的方式。
【8题详解】
词义猜测题。分析语境和句意可知，画线单词短语“As an interdependent aggregate f these five elements f SPIRE (作为这五个要素相互依赖的……)”与该段第一句“Happiness, as I see it, cmprises five elements…(在我看来，幸福包括五个要素……)”在解释“幸福”这一词的含义上是同义表达。在作者看来，幸福是由五个元素组成，即，幸福是五大元素的集合或结合。由此可推知“aggregate”可用“cmbinatin (组合，结合)”解释。故选A项。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第二段内容“As Aristtle put it, happiness is the ultimate purpse f life, meaning hw we spend ur everyday lives is ultimately guided by what we think wuld make us happier. This is nt a gd r a bad thing. It simply is, like the law f nature. (正如亚里士多德所说，幸福是人生的终极目的，这意味着我们如何度过日常生活，最终是由我们认为能让我们更快乐的事情来指导的。这不是好事也不是坏事。就像自然法则一样。)”可知，人们如何度过日常生活，最终是由人们认为能让自己更快乐的事情来指导的，作者用“这不是一件好的或者坏的事情，它只是像自然法则一样”来给与评价，这是客观性的评价，由此可推知，作者对此持有客观中立态度。故选C项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章最后一段内容“Similarly, pursuing happiness directly can hurt us; pursuing it indirectly—by breaking it dwn int smething like the SPIRE elements—can cntribute t ur well-being. (同样，直接追求幸福也会伤害我们；通过将其分解为类似精神五大元素的东西来间接地追求它，可以为我们的幸福做出贡献。)”可知，间接地追求幸福，即，把它分解成像SPIRE五大元素之类的东西，通过某个元素追求可以有助于实现幸福。故选D项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。分析语境可知，最后一段“As is knwn, if yu lk up at the sun directly, yu’ll hurt yurself. But if yu take the same sun rays and break them dwn, yu’ll enjy the clrs f a rainbw. (众所周知，如果你抬头直视太阳，你会伤到自己。但是如果你把同样的太阳光分解，你就会享受到彩虹的颜色。)”中提及直视太阳会让自己受伤，间接看太阳则会看到彩虹，紧接着用“Similarly (相似地，同样)”这一词引出后文“pursuing happiness directly can hurt us; pursuing it indirectly—by breaking it dwn int smething like the SPIRE elements—can cntribute t ur well-being (直接追求幸福也会伤害我们；通过将其分解为类似精神五大元素的东西来间接地追求它，可以为我们的幸福做出贡献)”讨论，“直视太阳”就相当于“直接追求幸福”，“把阳光分解”就相当于“将幸福分解为五大元素”。由此可知，作者这里提及阳光是为了做类比，让人在理解时更加具体化。故选B项。

Yu are what yu eat — and what yu eat may be encded in yur DNA. Studies have indicated that yur genetics play a rle in determining the fds yu find delicius r disgusting. “Everything has a genetic cmpnent, even if it’s small,” says Janne Cle, a geneticist and a prfessr at the University f Clrad Schl f Medicine. “We knw there is sme genetic cntributin t why we eat the fds we eat. Can we take the next step and actually shw the exact psitin f the regins in the genme (染色体)?”
A new research led by Cle has gtten a step clser. Thrugh a large-scale genmics analysis, her team has identified 481 genme regins that were directly linked t dietary patterns and fd preferences. The findings were presented at the American Sciety fr Nutritin’s annual flagship cnference.
They were based n a 2020 Nature Cmmunicatins study by Cle and her clleagues that used data frm the U. K. Bibank a public database f the genetic and health infrmatin f 500,000 participants. By scanning genmes, the new analysis was able t hme in n 194 regins assciated with dietary patterns and 287 linked t specific fds such as fruit, cheese, fish, tea and alchl.
“This study had a huge number f subjects, s that’s really pwerful,” says Mnica Dus, an assciate prfessr at the University f Michigan, wh wasn’t a part f the new research but studies the relatinship between genes and nutritin. “The ther thing that I thught was really great is that they have s many different characteristics that they’re measuring in respect t diet. They had chlesterl, the bdy, sciecnmic backgrunds.”
As the research advances, Dus says such genme analyses culd pssibly help health care prviders — and even plicymakers — address larger issues that affect fd access and health. “Instead f trying t bsess ver telling peple t eat this r that, a mre pwerful interventin is t link it t making sure there aren’t ‘fd deserts’ r t make sure that there’s a higher minimum wage — things that have a brader impact,” she says.
12. What is the purpse f Cle’s new research?
A. T encde the rle f DNA in determining fd chices.
B. T select genetic cmpnents tightly related t fd cnsumptin.
C. T figure ut the relatinship between genetics and fd preferences.
D. T identify specific regins in the genme related t fd preferences.
13. What’s paragraph 3 mainly abut?
A. The prcess f the study.B. The findings f the study.
C. The data-surce f the study.D. The significance f the study.
14. What des Mnica Dus mean in the text?
A. The subjects f the study are pwerful.
B. The research team studied many aspects linking t diet.
C. The genme analyses have n prspect in the future.
D. Peple’s wage shuld be raised because f “fd deserts”.
15. Which f the fllwing can be the best title f the text?
A. What Yu Eat Impacts Yur Health
B. What Yu Eat Frms Yur Dietary Pattern
C. Yur Genes May Determine Yur Nutritinal Need
D. Yur Genes May Influence What Yu Like t Eat

【13题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段“They were based n a 2020 Nature Cmmunicatins study by Cle and her clleagues that used data frm the U. K.

My father, Michael, led me thrugh the little wden huse he’d filled with his paintings. “When I have an exhibitin ...” he began, pinting t the artwrks he’d created, befre stpping. “Pr Pa,” I thught. In 1994 he gt Parkinsn’s Disease (帕金森氏病), which had shcked the whle family as he was nly in his frties.
A husband and father t three, Pa had had a successful career running an advertising agency and had always been extremely creative. Outside f wrk, he’d spent 15 years frnting the cver band, Musical Chairs, which perfrmed at the pub in Sydney’s Duble Bay each week and, when I became a mther, he develped a very clse bnd with my daughter.
Even when his Parkinsn’s advanced, my father decided he wanted t paint. “Why dn’t yu try classes?”my mum Luisa suggested t him. He agreed. In art lessns, the class practised painting still life bjects, like pears, but my father had ther ideas fr his inspiratin. He began prducing abstract pieces, inspired by his favurite artist, Jacksn Pllck, a leading abstract expressinist. “Why abstract?” I asked him. “Because,” he replied,“it helps us t see the wrld arund us in a different way. Yu can lk at these paintings and ask ‘what if?’”
Sn, I realized he was right. When I bserved my father’s wrk, I culd interpret each f them in many ways. Once he gt started, he shwed n signs f slwing dwn. The little huse was quickly filled with mre and mre wrks.
But in 2019, Pa develped cancer and was given just three mnths t live. The thught f lsing him was t much fr any f my family t accept, but we sn received great news that a new frm f treatment can help him greatly. Since he cntinued speaking abut wanting t share his paintings with the wrld, I knew what had t be dne.
