Terry Fx never thught he’d live a remarkable life.
He liked sprts, but n ne thught he was talented. During his first year in the university, he had a pain in his right knee, which was s bad that he culdn’t stand up. He went t the dctr fr tests. They shwed that he had cancer. He was ging t lse his leg and be given an artificial ne. Terry’s family and friends all gave him fantastic supprt. Terry said that he knew all thse peple really cared and helped him. He decided t face it with bravery.
One night Terry was lking thrugh an article abut Dick Traum, wh als had an artificial leg and had run in the New Yrk Marathn. “If he can d it,” thught Terry, “I can, t. In fact, I’ll run acrss Canada and raise mney fr cancer research. It will be a Marathn f Hpe!”
Fr the next 16 mnths, Terry had special treatments fr his cancer. And then he als began t run a little every day. Each day he ran a little farther. It is 5,300 miles acrss Canada. Terry hped t run thirty t frty miles a day s that it wuld take him six mnths. Mst f all, he hped t raise $1 millin fr cancer research.
Because Terry had an artificial leg, running wasn’t easy r straightfrward. He had t mve by jumping n ne ft twice and then take a lng step with his real leg. Althugh it lked awkward, he still kept n running. His actin made peple jin him as he ran: children, ftball stars, wheelchair athletes and even his brther, Darrell. As Terry ran, peple waved and cheered. S much mney was dnated that the vlunteers used large garbage bags s everyne culd give.
Then, utside Thunder Bay, Ontari, Terry felt a sharp pain in his chest. The pain was frm cancer; this time in his lungs. He had t abandn the Marathn after 3, 339 miles. He tld the peple befre he left, “I wn’t give up. I just hpe peple will cntinue t give mney.” And they did. Just under $25 millin was given.
Terry received numerus awards. At 22, he was the yungest Canadian t ever receive Canada’s highest award, the Cmpanin f the Order f Canada.

Smile! It makes everyne in the rm feel better because they, cnsciusly r uncnsciusly, are smiling with yu. Grwing evidence shws that an instinct fr facial mimicry (模仿) allws us t empathize with and even experience ther peple’s feelings. If we can’t mirrr anther persn’s face, it limits ur ability t read and prperly react t their expressins. A review f this emtinal mirrring appears n February 11 in Trends in Cgnitive Sciences.
In their paper, Paula Niedenthal and Adrienne Wd, scial psychlgists at the University f Wiscnsin, describe hw peple in scial situatins cpy thers’ facial expressins t create emtinal respnses in themselves. Fr example, if yu’re with a friend wh lks sad, yu might “try n” that sad face yurself withut realizing yu’re ding s. In “trying n” yur friend’s expressin, it helps yu t recgnize what they’re feeling by assciating it with times in the past when yu made that expressin. Humans get this emtinal meaning frm facial expressins in a matter f nly a few hundred millisecnds.
“Yu reflect n yur emtinal feelings and then yu generate sme srt f recgnitin judgment, and the mst imprtant thing that results in is that yu take the apprpriate actin — yu apprach the persn r yu avid the persn,” Niedenthal says. “Yur wn emtinal reactin t the face changes yur perceptin f hw yu see the face in such a way that prvides yu with mre infrmatin abut what it means.”
A persn’s ability t recgnize and “share” thers’ emtins can be prevented when they can’t mimic faces. This is a cmmn cmplaint fr peple with mtr diseases, like facial paralysis (瘫痪) frm a strke, r even due t nerve damage frm plastic surgery. Niedenthal ntes that the same wuld nt be true fr peple wh suffer frm paralysis frm birth, because if yu’ve never had the ability t mimic facial expressins, yu will have develped cmpensatry ways f interpreting emtins.
Peple with scial disrders assciated with mimicry r emtin-recgnitin damage, like autism (自闭症), can experience similar challenges. “There are sme symptms in autism where lack facial mimicry may in part be due t limitatin f eye cntact,” Niedenthal says.
Niedenthal next wants t explre what part in the brain is functining t help with facial expressin recgnitin. A better understanding f that part, she says, will give us a better idea f hw t treat related disrders.
28. Accrding t the passage, facial mimicry helps ______.
A. experience ne’s wn feelings clearlyB. change thers’ emtins quickly
C. respnd t thers’ expressins prperlyD. develp friendship with thers easily
29. We can knw frm Paragraph 4 and 5 that ______.
A. peple with mtr diseases may als suffer frm autism
B. peple brn with facial paralysis may still recgnize emtins
C. peple with scial disrders can’t have eye cntact with thers
D. peple receiving plastic survey have difficulty in mimicking faces
30. Accrding t Niedenthal, the next step f the study will fcus n ______.
A. hw we can treat brain disrders
B. what can be dne t regain facial mimicry
C. hw ur brain helps us with emtinal mirrring
D. what part f ur brain helps recgnize facial expressin
31. The passage is written t ______.
A. discuss hw peple react psitively t thers’ smiles
B. draw peple’s attentin t thse with scial disrders
C. intrduce a new trend in facial expressin recgnitin
D. explain hw emtinal mirrring affects peple’s empathy

It is the seasn fr taking the time t reflect n what we’re thankful fr in life. Spending that time with friends and family t give thanks is what makes the hlidays s special. But why shuld limit it t just a few weeks in the year? Gratitude is a muscle we shuld strengthen year-rund t make us healthier, happier humans and leaders.
Gratitude builds empathy. We ften take fr granted the simple things in life. Thse wh recgnize the gdness in life, n matter hw simple r autmatic, are mre likely t be sensitive t the needs f thers and t help whenever they can. Being empathetic t thers’ pinins, experiences and backgrunds will make yu a better prfessinal, n matter yur career.
Thrugh his research, Emmns, a leading researcher, fund that grateful peple reprted feeling healthier, bth mentally and physically. Specifically, thse wh were grateful were 25 percent happier than thse wh weren’t. In the wrkplace, well-being is a crucial tpic when it cmes t preventing emplyee burn-ut and prmting engagement. Beynd the research that shws that emplyees wh are shwn that they are appreciated are mre prductive by 50 percent, caring fr yur emplyees’ well-being is simply the right thing t d. Offering fitness classes r carrying ut flexible wrk schedules are just a few things that, when paired with gratitude, can lead t mre prductive, engaged and happier wrking prfessinals.
Wrking in a develping, fast-paced industry, we are ften surrunded by ambitius peple wh are always striving fr mre and better. Gratitude makes us mre self-aware. It challenges us t reflect in the mment instead f always thinking abut the future. It starts by paying attentin t what’s ging n in ur life, and that true self-awareness is a key factr t being successful in ur career.
Gratitude is a pwerful tl fr making relatinships strnger, bth at wrk and in ur persnal life. Peple wh express their gratitude tend t be mre willing t frgive thers and therefre able t create relatively lng-lasting cnnectins.
During my mnth-lng vacatin, I made it a pint t be reflective during the time I had withut disturbances r deadlines. Part f that was making a mental list f the peple, things and experiences I was grateful fr in my life. I decided t reach ut t my fifth-grade teacher and thank her fr being psitive instructr and a strng influence n my life.
The ld saying ges “It’s never t late t say yu’re srry,” but the same is true f gratitude. Taking the time t thank peple fr their wrk, kindness r empathy-whether it was tday, last mnth r many years ag-makes yu happier, healthier and mre self-aware. And that’s a gift wrth celebrating 365 days a year.
32. What des the underlined wrd “empathy” in Paragraph 2 prbably mean?
A. The feeling f being srry fr thers’ prblems.
B. The desire t help peple in difficult situatins.
C. The ability t understand ther peple’s feeling
D. The feeling f pleasure r satisfactin twards thers.
33. What can be inferred frm the passage?
A. Peple wh have self-awareness can succeed withut effrt.
B. Grateful peple will live a much lnger life than ungrateful peple.
C. Wise enterprises shuld raise the emplyees’ sense f well-being.
D. Gratitude can ensure the relatinship between peple is unbreakable.
34. Why des the authr mentin his wn experience in Paragraph 6?
A. T encurage peple t cntact with teachers.
B. T knw it’s never t late t express gratitude.
C. T rder peple t keep lng-lasting cnnectin.
D. T present that his teacher greatly influenced him.
35. Which f the fllwing wuld be the best title fr the passage?
A. Being Grateful Year-Rund.B. The Seasn fr Gratitude.
C. The Way t Shw Thanks.D. The Special Hliday f Gratitude.
四、七选五（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分）
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。
Have yu ever agreed t d smething nly t find ut later that yu dn’t have time? Are yu cnstantly stressed frm rushing frm ne assignment t anther? If s, yu may have a prblem with vercmmitment. Overcmmitment happens when yu decide t d mre things than yu realistically have time t d. 36 Yur quality f life als suffers because vercmmitment leaves yu less time t take care f yurself. It’s preferable t d ne r tw things well than t d 10 things prly-r wrse, t back ut nce yu’ve agreed t smething.
Time management cnch Elizabeth Sunder suggests creating a budget fr yur time like yu d with mney. The ttal amunt f time yu have each day equals 24 hurs minus (减去) the time yu need fr basic wellness activities. 37 Saunders suggests adding up yur time cmmitments t ther peple and the time needed t meet yur persnal gals. If that ttal is greater than the amunt f time yu have each day, yu have a prblem.
38 . Schedule times fr everything yu need t d — including taking care f yurself. But yu dn’t have t fill every blank space.
It’s als wrth lking at yur current cmmitments. D yur cmmitments actually match yur pririties? 39
Learning hw t say n plitely but firmly als helps with vercmmitment. It helps t have a gd sense f what yur pririties are s that yu can say yes r n when apprpriate.
I have a rule that I never immediately agree t any lng-term time cmmitments. 40 That’s because my first instinct (本能反应) is usually t say yes, even if I dn’t really have time. Having time t think abut a ptential assignment gives me space t say n if I need t.
A. Are yu satisfied with yur jb?
B. I always ask fr sme time t think.
C. It is wrth cnsidering yu interest.
D. When this happens, the quality f yur wrk suffers.
E. These include things like sleeping, eating and shwering.
F. Culd yu give up sme f them r pass them ff t ther peple?
G. One tl that may be helpful in aviding vercmmitment is a calendar.
五、阅读表达（共4小题；第1、2题2分，第3题3分，第4题5分，共12分）
阅读下面短文和问题，在答题卡相应题号后的横线上写下相关信息，完成对该问题的回答。
Why d yu pull yurself ut f bed every mrning t g t wrk r schl? What des it take t make yu feel like yur cntributin in thse places is truly wrthwhile? Knwing what mtivates yu can help yu find meaning in yur wrk and make effrts t reach yur gals.
Psychlgists have a wide variety f ways f describing and differentiating mtivatins because peple care abut s many different things. Psychlgist David McClelland identified three main mtivatins fr peple: achievement (the feeling f success), affiliatin (clse relatinships) and pwer (the ability t influence the wrld). Authrs Adrian Gstick and Chester Eltn identified 23 mtivatins, including creativity, challenge and learning.
Sme mtivatins, such as mney, scial psitin and praise, are external; these are the tls bsses typically use t encurage their emplyees t d better. Other mtivatins, including fun, persnal grwth and feeling like ne’s wrk is significant, cme frm within the persn ding the actin. These ideals, called internal mtivatins, tend t be mre reliable than external nes because they represent things that can never he taken away
Since a wide variety f mtivatins exist, it’s imprtant t understand which nes are persuasive t yu. Trying t mtivate yurself in a way that desn’t appeal t yu will make it difficult t cnvince yurself t wrk. When chsing a career, think abut what mtivates yu and make decisins accrdingly. If yu are mtivated by vercming challenges, lk fr a career where yu can cntinually try hard t reach a higher level.
Peple mtivated by external rewards smetimes struggle t meet gals they set fr themselves that n ne else knws abut. They can slve this prblem by creating external rewards fr their persnal gals such as finding a friend t hld them accuntable.
When yu knw what mtivates yu, yu will be able t mtivate yurself t d the things necessary t succeed. And if yu are a leader, knwing what mtivates yur team will enable yu t help them d the same.
41. Why is it imprtant fr peple t be clear f their mtivatins?
42. Hw can the mtivatins be classified accrding t McClelland?
43. Please decide which part is false in the fllwing statement, then underline it and explain why.
Since the external mtivatins invlve mney, scial psitin and praise, which are ften used as tls by bsses, they are mre dependable than the internal nes.
44. Please briefly present what mtivates yu in yur life and hw it wrks. (abut 40 wrds)

Terry Fx never thught he’d live a remarkable life.
He liked sprts, but n ne thught he was talented. During his first year in the university, he had a pain in his right knee, which was s bad that he culdn’t stand up. He went t the dctr fr tests. They shwed that he had cancer. He was ging t lse his leg and be given an artificial ne. Terry’s family and friends all gave him fantastic supprt. Terry said that he knew all thse peple really cared and helped him. He decided t face it with bravery.
One night Terry was lking thrugh an article abut Dick Traum, wh als had an artificial leg and had run in the New Yrk Marathn. “If he can d it,” thught Terry, “I can, t. In fact, I’ll run acrss Canada and raise mney fr cancer research. It will be a Marathn f Hpe!”
Fr the next 16 mnths, Terry had special treatments fr his cancer. And then he als began t run a little every day. Each day he ran a little farther. It is 5,300 miles acrss Canada. Terry hped t run thirty t frty miles a day s that it wuld take him six mnths. Mst f all, he hped t raise $1 millin fr cancer research.
Because Terry had an artificial leg, running wasn’t easy r straightfrward. He had t mve by jumping n ne ft twice and then take a lng step with his real leg. Althugh it lked awkward, he still kept n running. His actin made peple jin him as he ran: children, ftball stars, wheelchair athletes and even his brther, Darrell. As Terry ran, peple waved and cheered. S much mney was dnated that the vlunteers used large garbage bags s everyne culd give.
Then, utside Thunder Bay, Ontari, Terry felt a sharp pain in his chest. The pain was frm cancer; this time in his lungs. He had t abandn the Marathn after 3, 339 miles. He tld the peple befre he left, “I wn’t give up. I just hpe peple will cntinue t give mney.” And they did. Just under $25 millin was given.

Smile! It makes everyne in the rm feel better because they, cnsciusly r uncnsciusly, are smiling with yu. Grwing evidence shws that an instinct fr facial mimicry (模仿) allws us t empathize with and even experience ther peple’s feelings. If we can’t mirrr anther persn’s face, it limits ur ability t read and prperly react t their expressins. A review f this emtinal mirrring appears n February 11 in Trends in Cgnitive Sciences.
In their paper, Paula Niedenthal and Adrienne Wd, scial psychlgists at the University f Wiscnsin, describe hw peple in scial situatins cpy thers’ facial expressins t create emtinal respnses in themselves. Fr example, if yu’re with a friend wh lks sad, yu might “try n” that sad face yurself withut realizing yu’re ding s. In “trying n” yur friend’s expressin, it helps yu t recgnize what they’re feeling by assciating it with times in the past when yu made that expressin. Humans get this emtinal meaning frm facial expressins in a matter f nly a few hundred millisecnds.
“Yu reflect n yur emtinal feelings and then yu generate sme srt f recgnitin judgment, and the mst imprtant thing that results in is that yu take the apprpriate actin — yu apprach the persn r yu avid the persn,” Niedenthal says. “Yur wn emtinal reactin t the face changes yur perceptin f hw yu see the face in such a way that prvides yu with mre infrmatin abut what it means.”
A persn’s ability t recgnize and “share” thers’ emtins can be prevented when they can’t mimic faces. This is a cmmn cmplaint fr peple with mtr diseases, like facial paralysis (瘫痪) frm a strke, r even due t nerve damage frm plastic surgery. Niedenthal ntes that the same wuld nt be true fr peple wh suffer frm paralysis frm birth, because if yu’ve never had the ability t mimic facial expressins, yu will have develped cmpensatry ways f interpreting emtins.
Peple with scial disrders assciated with mimicry r emtin-recgnitin damage, like autism (自闭症), can experience similar challenges. “There are sme symptms in autism where lack facial mimicry may in part be due t limitatin f eye cntact,” Niedenthal says.
Niedenthal next wants t explre what part in the brain is functining t help with facial expressin recgnitin. A better understanding f that part, she says, will give us a better idea f hw t treat related disrders.
28. Accrding t the passage, facial mimicry helps ______.
A. experience ne’s wn feelings clearlyB. change thers’ emtins quickly
C. respnd t thers’ expressins prperlyD. develp friendship with thers easily
29. We can knw frm Paragraph 4 and 5 that ______.
A. peple with mtr diseases may als suffer frm autism
B. peple brn with facial paralysis may still recgnize emtins
C. peple with scial disrders can’t have eye cntact with thers
D. peple receiving plastic survey have difficulty in mimicking faces
30. Accrding t Niedenthal, the next step f the study will fcus n ______.
A. hw we can treat brain disrders
B. what can be dne t regain facial mimicry
C. hw ur brain helps us with emtinal mirrring
D. what part f ur brain helps recgnize facial expressin
31. The passage is written t ______.
A. discuss hw peple react psitively t thers’ smiles
B. draw peple’s attentin t thse with scial disrders

It is the seasn fr taking the time t reflect n what we’re thankful fr in life. Spending that time with friends and family t give thanks is what makes the hlidays s special. But why shuld limit it t just a few weeks in the year? Gratitude is a muscle we shuld strengthen year-rund t make us healthier, happier humans and leaders.
Gratitude builds empathy. We ften take fr granted the simple things in life. Thse wh recgnize the gdness in life, n matter hw simple r autmatic, are mre likely t be sensitive t the needs f thers and t help whenever they can. Being empathetic t thers’ pinins, experiences and backgrunds will make yu a better prfessinal, n matter yur career.
Thrugh his research, Emmns, a leading researcher, fund that grateful peple reprted feeling healthier, bth mentally and physically. Specifically, thse wh were grateful were 25 percent happier than thse wh weren’t. In the wrkplace, well-being is a crucial tpic when it cmes t preventing emplyee burn-ut and prmting engagement. Beynd the research that shws that emplyees wh are shwn that they are appreciated are mre prductive by 50 percent, caring fr yur emplyees’ well-being is simply the right thing t d. Offering fitness classes r carrying ut flexible wrk schedules are just a few things that, when paired with gratitude, can lead t mre prductive, engaged and happier wrking prfessinals.
Wrking in a develping, fast-paced industry, we are ften surrunded by ambitius peple wh are always striving fr mre and better. Gratitude makes us mre self-aware. It challenges us t reflect in the mment instead f always thinking abut the future. It starts by paying attentin t what’s ging n in ur life, and that true self-awareness is a key factr t being successful in ur career.
Gratitude is a pwerful tl fr making relatinships strnger, bth at wrk and in ur persnal life. Peple wh express their gratitude tend t be mre willing t frgive thers and therefre able t create relatively lng-lasting cnnectins.
During my mnth-lng vacatin, I made it a pint t be reflective during the time I had withut disturbances r deadlines. Part f that was making a mental list f the peple, things and experiences I was grateful fr in my life. I decided t reach ut t my fifth-grade teacher and thank her fr being psitive instructr and a strng influence n my life.
The ld saying ges “It’s never t late t say yu’re srry,” but the same is true f gratitude. Taking the time t thank peple fr their wrk, kindness r empathy-whether it was tday, last mnth r many years ag-makes yu happier, healthier and mre self-aware. And that’s a gift wrth celebrating 365 days a year.
32. What des the underlined wrd “empathy” in Paragraph 2 prbably mean?
A. The feeling f being srry fr thers’ prblems.
B. The desire t help peple in difficult situatins.
C. The ability t understand ther peple’s feeling

Have yu ever agreed t d smething nly t find ut later that yu dn’t have time? Are yu cnstantly stressed frm rushing frm ne assignment t anther? If s, yu may have a prblem with vercmmitment. Overcmmitment happens when yu decide t d mre things than yu realistically have time t d. 36 Yur quality f life als suffers because vercmmitment leaves yu less time t take care f yurself. It’s preferable t d ne r tw things well than t d 10 things prly-r wrse, t back ut nce yu’ve agreed t smething.
Time management cnch Elizabeth Sunder suggests creating a budget fr yur time like yu d with mney. The ttal amunt f time yu have each day equals 24 hurs minus (减去) the time yu need fr basic wellness activities. 37 Saunders suggests adding up yur time cmmitments t ther peple and the time needed t meet yur persnal gals. If that ttal is greater than the amunt f time yu have each day, yu have a prblem.
38 . Schedule times fr everything yu need t d — including taking care f yurself. But yu dn’t have t fill every blank space.
It’s als wrth lking at yur current cmmitments. D yur cmmitments actually match yur pririties? 39
Learning hw t say n plitely but firmly als helps with vercmmitment. It helps t have a gd sense f what yur pririties are s that yu can say yes r n when apprpriate.
I have a rule that I never immediately agree t any lng-term time cmmitments. 40 That’s because my first instinct (本能反应) is usually t say yes, even if I dn’t really have time. Having time t think abut a ptential assignment gives me space t say n if I need t.
A. Are yu satisfied with yur jb?
B. I always ask fr sme time t think.
C. It is wrth cnsidering yu interest.
D. When this happens, the quality f yur wrk suffers.

五、阅读表达（共4小题；第1、2题2分，第3题3分，第4题5分，共12分）
阅读下面短文和问题，在答题卡相应题号后的横线上写下相关信息，完成对该问题的回答。
Why d yu pull yurself ut f bed every mrning t g t wrk r schl? What des it take t make yu feel like yur cntributin in thse places is truly wrthwhile? Knwing what mtivates yu can help yu find meaning in yur wrk and make effrts t reach yur gals.
Psychlgists have a wide variety f ways f describing and differentiating mtivatins because peple care abut s many different things. Psychlgist David McClelland identified three main mtivatins fr peple: achievement (the feeling f success), affiliatin (clse relatinships) and pwer (the ability t influence the wrld). Authrs Adrian Gstick and Chester Eltn identified 23 mtivatins, including creativity, challenge and learning.
Sme mtivatins, such as mney, scial psitin and praise, are external; these are the tls bsses typically use t encurage their emplyees t d better. Other mtivatins, including fun, persnal grwth and feeling like ne’s wrk is significant, cme frm within the persn ding the actin. These ideals, called internal mtivatins, tend t be mre reliable than external nes because they represent things that can never he taken away
Since a wide variety f mtivatins exist, it’s imprtant t understand which nes are persuasive t yu. Trying t mtivate yurself in a way that desn’t appeal t yu will make it difficult t cnvince yurself t wrk. When chsing a career, think abut what mtivates yu and make decisins accrdingly. If yu are mtivated by vercming challenges, lk fr a career where yu can cntinually try hard t reach a higher level.
Peple mtivated by external rewards smetimes struggle t meet gals they set fr themselves that n ne else knws abut. They can slve this prblem by creating external rewards fr their persnal gals such as finding a friend t hld them accuntable.
When yu knw what mtivates yu, yu will be able t mtivate yurself t d the things necessary t succeed. And if yu are a leader, knwing what mtivates yur team will enable yu t help them d the same.
41. Why is it imprtant fr peple t be clear f their mtivatins?
42. Hw can the mtivatins be classified accrding t McClelland?
43. Please decide which part is false in the fllwing statement, then underline it and explain why.
Since the external mtivatins invlve mney, scial psitin and praise, which are ften used as tls by bsses, they are mre dependable than the internal nes.
44. Please briefly present what mtivates yu in yur life and hw it wrks. (abut 40 wrds)
