When I was named CEO f a glbal cmpany in 2006, I was determined t run the cmpany s that it wuld bth deliver gd shrt-term perfrmance and thrive in the lng term, years after I was gne. It was already in gd shape, but I dreamed f creating a defining crpratin f the 21st century, prud f its rt, yet glbal and respnsible in the shifting times.
Fr mnths I quietly read all I culd abut the big scial trends influencing business. I walked the market, and examined emplyees’ feedback. I als dug deep int the bligatins f public crpratins. Frm all f this emerged a visin fr the cmpany that guided us fr the next dzen years r s. I called it “Perfrmance with Purpse”. The gal was t deliver great financial returns, as we always had, with three additinal clear bjects: t nurish humanity and the cmmunities, t prtect ur envirnment and t cherish ur peple.
My mtivatin was whlly t “future prf”, r de-risk. And it wrked. In my 12 years as CEO, ttal sharehlder return was 149%, and net prfit jumped 80%.

Imprtantly, de-risking the cmpany actually creates sharehlder value.
“Perfrmance with Purpse” presented tugh mments fr me, including when ne investr questined, “Wh d yu think yu are? A philanthrpist (慈善家)?” But skepticism faded when a cllective missin tk hld that included bth the bttm line and much beynd. This was my hpe frm the start.

(我认为,领导者必须从未来的角度考虑问题,即使事情进展顺利。我们现在有了一个可以提供帮助的框架:不断发展的环境、社会和治理指标模板(ESG衡量标准),从本质上讲,这些模板有助于企业和市场降低风险。这些标准迫使任何有志于长期保持相关性的人讨论残酷的事实。如果这些指标经过精心挑选,ESG并不会违背投资者的利益。重要的是,降低公司风险实际上创造了股东价值。)”可知,第四段主要讲述了作者如何通过ESG衡量标准来为公司“去风险”,这是作者成功经商的秘诀。故选D项。

The idea that aging reduces adults’ ability t imagine, a cmmn theme in children’s literature, is cntradicted by psychlgical research. While children are ften prtrayed as mre imaginative, research indicates that adults nt nly keep this ability but smetimes surpass children in imaginative thinking.
Children are frequently celebrated fr bundless imaginatin. Yet, research reveals that their make-believe games ften center arund realistic scenaris, such as cking and cleaning, as demnstrated in a 2020 study published in Jurnal f Cgnitin and Develpment. Anther study, lasting fr fur decades, als suggests that children are nt naturally mre imaginative than adults; their limitatins result frm a lack f knwledge and expertise t effectively use their imaginative capacity as adults.
Imaginatin may have evlved fr cnsidering alternatives t reality, but we use it mst naturally t explre clse alternatives, like preparing a different meal, rather than far alternatives, like riding n cluds. When we use imaginatin t envisin far alternatives — t innvate r invent — we’re nt digging int an inbrn appreciatin f the extrardinary; we’re using a tl designed t explre the rdinary. When cnsidering alternatives t reality, we fix ur attentin n pssibilities that are physically reasnable, statistically prbable, scially cnventinal and mrally permissible. When tld abut pssibilities that vilate such regularities, we usually deny they culd happen. Generally speaking, ur ideas abut what culd happen are firmly rted in what we expect t happen.
This mindset is als particularly apparent in yung children. In a 2018 study I c-designed with psychlgist Jnathan Phillips, 4-year-lds were asked t help a distressed girl wh disliked ging t schl due t missing her mther. Amng all the slutins given, they perceived the nly pssible slutin was fr her mther t d smething special after schl t ease her cncerns. Unexpected alternatives, such as snapping fingers and making it Saturday, wearing pajamas t schl r lying abut schl being clsed, were all regarded impssible. Frm this, we can cnclude that children’s earliest intuitins (直觉力) abut pssibility cnfuse what culd happen with what shuld happen.
Histrically, the imprbable event f traveling faster than a hrse was cnsidered impssible, as was traveling by air r traveling int space. Befre the arrival f trains and planes, there were gd reasns t think that peple culd travel nly s far and nly s fast. But these reasns were empirical (经验主义的), nt lgical. Imaginatin, n its wn, lumps the imprbable with the impssible, but we can cmbine imaginatin with ther abilities — namely, knwledge and reflectin — t separate the tw. While imaginatin in children ften subjects t expectatin, adults can cntrl their imaginative capacity fr innvatin by integrating it with accumulated knwledge and reflective thinking.
28. Accrding t the first tw paragraphs, we knw that _________.
A. children develp imaginatin thrugh games
B. children face limitatins in acquiring knwledge
C. adults are as gd as children in imaginative thinking
D. adults’ imaginative ability is likely t stay cnstant with age
29. We can infer frm the passage that _________.
A. expectatin results frm imaginative capacity
B. certain practical cncerns can limit imaginatin
C. breaking regularities may lead t clse alternatives
D. far alternatives are mre imprtant than clse alternatives
30. The 2018 study shws that children _________.
A. came up with a wide range f alternativesB. were quicker t figure ut slutins
C. tk what shuld happen as pssibilitiesD. used imaginatin in a reasnable way
31. The underlined wrd “lumps” in the last paragraph prbably means _________.
A. mixB. matchC. cmpareD. replace
【答案】28. D 29. B 30. C 31. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。这篇短文主要指出心理学研究反驳了老年人想象力下降的观点,实际上成年人在某些方面可能比儿童更有想象力。研究表明,儿童的想象游戏通常围绕现实场景,并非天生比成人更具想象力,而是受限于知识和经验。人们倾向于用想象力探索与现实相近的可能性,而非遥远的不切实际的事物。研究还显示,儿童对可能性的理解容易与期望混淆。最后,文章强调成人可以通过结合知识和反思来控制想象力,从而进行创新。
【28题详解】
推理判断题。由第一段中“While children are ften prtrayed as mre imaginative, research indicates that adults nt nly keep this ability but smetimes surpass children in imaginative thinking. (虽然儿童通常被描绘成更有想象力,但研究表明,成年人不仅保持了这种能力,而且有时在想象力思维方面超过了儿童)”和第二段中“Anther study, lasting fr fur decades, als suggests that children are nt naturally mre imaginative than adults (另一项持续四十年的研究也表明,儿童天生并不比成年人更有想象力)”可知,儿童天生并不比成年人更有想象力,人成年后也更有想象力,成年人不仅保持了这种能力,而且有时在想象力思维方面超过了儿童,可得出成年人的想象力可能会随着年龄的增长而保持不变。故选D项。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。由第三段中“When we use imaginatin t envisin far alternatives — t innvate r invent — we’re nt digging int an inbrn appreciatin f the extrardinary; we’re using a tl designed t explre the rdinary. When cnsidering alternatives t reality, we fix ur attentin n pssibilities that are physically reasnable, statistically prbable, scially cnventinal and mrally permissible. When tld abut pssibilities that vilate such regularities, we usually deny they culd happen. Generally speaking, ur ideas abut what culd happen are firmly rted in what we expect t happen. (当我们用想象力来设想创新或发明的遥远替代方案时,我们并不是在挖掘与生俱来的非凡鉴赏力;我们正在使用一种旨在探索普通事物的工具。在考虑现实的替代方案时,我们将注意力集中在物理上合理、统计上可能、社会传统和道德上允许的可能性上。当被告知违反这种规律的可能性时,我们通常否认它们可能发生。一般来说,我们对可能发生的事情的想法深深植根于我们所期望的事情)”可得出,某些实际问题会限制想象力。故选B项。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。由第四段中“Frm this, we can cnclude that children’s earliest intuitins (直觉力) abut pssibility cnfuse what culd happen with what shuld happen. (由此,我们可以得出结论,孩子们最早对可能性的直觉混淆了可能发生的事情和应该发生的事情)”可知,2018年的研究表明,儿童把应该发生的事情视为可能。故选C项。
【31题详解】
词句猜测题。由最后一段中“But these reasns were empirical (经验主义的), nt lgical. Imaginatin, n its wn, lumps the imprbable with the impssible, but we can cmbine imaginatin with ther abilities — namely, knwledge and reflectin — t separate the tw. (但这些原因都是经验的,而非逻辑的。想象力本身就lumps不大可能(还有机会实现)和大不可能(绝无可能实现),但我们可以把想象力与其他能力——即知识和反思——结合起来,把两者分开)”可知,but后讲人们可以通过将想象力与其他能力,即知识和反思相结合,将不大可能(还有机会实现)和大不可能(绝无可能实现)分开,说明想象力本身会将不大可能(还有机会实现)和大不可能(绝无可能实现)混为一谈,划线词lumps意为“混合”。故选A项。
D
We are a scial animal. Indeed, it is ur sciality — such as the ability t make sense f each ther, t cmmunicate, t wrk cperatively and, finally, t create culture — that marks us ff frm ther animal species.
But then why are we everywhere striving t increase ur islatin and limit ur cntact with thers? As musician David Byrn e argues in an essay published last mnth, it is a striking fact abut the new technlgies that have s cme t shape ur lives, that they have precisely this effect: they limit ur need fr human cntact. Online shpping? Check. Autmated checkut? Check. Ride hail apps? Check.
Efficiency is the key. We purchase efficiency by limiting the human aspect, knwn as “autnmus peratin”. This is perhaps even mre prnunced with new technlgies n the hrizn. Take the MOOC, the teacher-less virtual classrm. As Byrn e ntes, this is meant t deliver the values f a learning envirnment withut, well, withut the envirnment — yu get t stay at hme — n teacher, but als, n fellw students.
Byrne isn’t claiming we are cnsciusly chsing t islate urselves. We shp nline because it is cnvenient. The absence f cntact with thers is a side-effect. Maybe even an unavidable ne, as ne f the things that makes nline shpping s easy is precisely the absence f cntact with ther peple.
But Bryne’s thught is that whatever ur intentin, the tendency f ur tech t islate us may be a feature, nt a bug. His hypthesis is that we actually, at sme level, crave (渴望) the increased islatin and we are actually making technlgies t satisfy impulses that, in sme way, g beynd r against ur scial nature. But I wnder, is this really new?
Even if we are scial by nature, and d everything we can t embed urselves scially, the need t find ways t be alne is, well, nthing new. It’s als striking that the very activities that risk separating us — in the ld days, bks, newspapers, TV; nwadays, the latest apps als cnnect us. We read abut each ther. What we read gives us infrmatin t share with each ther.
I am well aware f the data that shws the mre time yu spend n scial media, the sadder and mre islated and envius yu feel f thers. But hw nvel is the islating effect f scial media? Being there reminds me a lt f what it was like t be scial in high schl — yu have a vivid sense f yur status and yur standing in relatin t thers, and yu have t deal with that.
This may be islating, sure. But it’s the islating face f the scial lives we’ve always had. It is islating because f the ways technlgy brings us int real cntact with thers, nt because it remves that cntact.
I wnder whether mre islatin is a real ptin, after all.
32. Which f the fllwing best reflects “autnmus peratin”?
A Getting a tthbrush via a htel delivery rbt.

【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章讨论了在线购物和社交媒体如何可能无意中导致人们感到孤独,但同时强调这些活动也提供了与他人建立联系的机会,反映了现代社会中人们在追求便利与社交之间的平衡。
32题详解】
推理判断题。由文章第三段中“Efficiency is the key. We purchase efficiency by limiting the human aspect, knwn as “autnmus peratin”. This is perhaps even mre prnunced with new technlgies n the hrizn. Take the MOOC, the teacher-less virtual classrm. As Byrn e ntes, this is meant t deliver the values f a learning envirnment withut, well, withut the envirnment — yu get t stay at hme — n teacher, but als, n fellw students. (效率是关键。我们通过限制人的方面来获得效率,被称为“自主操作”。随着新技术的出现,这一点可能更加明显。以MOOC为例,即没有教师的虚拟课堂。正如伯恩所指出的,这意味着在没有环境的情况下,传递学习环境的价值——你可以呆在家里——没有老师,也没有同学)”可知,通过限制人为因素(即自主操作)来提高效率。由此推知,通过酒店送货机器人获取牙刷正好符合“自主操作”的定义,因为这一过程中没有人为的参与,完全由机器人自主完成。故选A。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。由文章第六段中“Even if we are scial by nature, and d everything we can t embed urselves scially, the need t find ways t be alne is, well, nthing new. It’s als striking that the very activities that risk separating us — in the ld days, bks, newspapers, TV; nwadays, the latest apps — als cnnect us. We read abut each ther. What we read gives us infrmatin t share with each ther. (即使我们天生具有社交性,并尽我们所能融入社会,寻找独处方式的需求也不是什么新鲜事。同样令人吃惊的是,那些有可能把我们分开的活动——在过去,书籍、报纸、电视;如今,最新的应用程序也连接着我们。我们互相了解对方。我们所读的东西给我们提供信息,让我们彼此分享)” 可推知,作者认为看似孤立的行为实际上可以让人们产生联系。故选B。
【34题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是由文章第二段“But then why are we everywhere striving t increase ur islatin and limit ur cntact with thers? As musician David Byrn e argues in an essay published last mnth, it is a striking fact abut the new technlgies that have s cme t shape ur lives, that they have precisely this effect: they limit ur need fr human cntact. Online shpping? Check. Autmated checkut? Check. Ride hail apps? Check. (但是,为什么我们到处都在努力增加我们的孤立,限制我们与他人的接触呢?正如音乐家David Byrn在上月发表的一篇文章中所指出的那样,新技术如此塑造了我们的生活,一个令人震惊的事实是,它们恰恰具有这样的效果:它们限制了我们对人际交往的需求。)”可知,文章主语讨论了在线购物和社交媒体如何可能无意中导致人们感到孤独,但同时强调这些活动也提供了与他人建立联系的机会,反映了现代社会中人们在追求便利与社交之间的平衡。由此可知,D项“Can We Erase Human Element? (我们能抹去人类元素吗?)”适合作本文最佳标题。故选D。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章首先解释了敏感性的定义和可能带来的问题,然后转向讨论不敏感性的力量,并给出了实践不敏感性的策略。
【35题详解】
由上文“Being sensitive means that yu are bservant, careful, and thughtful. It can als mean yu smetimes verinterpret r verreact t perceived criticism r judgment. If yu tend t be a highly sensitive persn, yu are mre likely t misread signals frm thers, sense scial threats, and struggle t adapt t new circumstances. (敏感意味着你善于观察、细心和深思熟虑。这也可能意味着你有时会过度解释或过度反应感知到的批评或判断。如果你是一个高度敏感的人,你更有可能误读他人的信号,感觉到社会威胁,并努力适应新环境)”可知,这里需要一个总结如何应对高度敏感的句子。B选项“That’s where the need t be insensitive cmes frm. (这就是麻木不仁的必要性的来源)”能承接上文,符合题意。故选B。
【36题详解】
由上文“The pwer f insensitivity can be interpreted as “sluggish (迟钝的) pwer”.(不敏感的力量可以解释为“迟钝的力量”)”可知,上文提到了“迟钝的力量”,接下来应该解释这种力量具体意味着什么。F选项“It implies the ability t calmly face the setbacks and firmly mve frward. (它意味着冷静面对挫折并坚定前行的能力)”恰当地解释了“迟钝力量”的正面含义,即在逆境中的韧性,能承接上文,符合题意。故选F。
【37题详解】
由下文“That is ne f the imprtant reasns why insensitivity allws a persn t better survive and adapt in a cmpetitive envirnment. Knwing neself is difficult, but knwing neself crrectly is undubtedly an excellent ability — a trait shared by many successful peple, wh all clearly knw where their strengths are, what they can d, what they want, and what directin t g. (这就是为什么不敏感能让一个人更好地在竞争环境中生存和适应的重要原因之一。认识自己是困难的,但正确地认识自己无疑是一种优秀的能力——这是许多成功人士共有的特点,他们都清楚地知道自己的长处在哪里,自己能做什么,自己想要什么,以及要走的方向)”可知,后文提及自我认知能力及成功人士的特点,此处应引出不敏感与自我意识之间的联系。D选项“Behind insensitivity is a strng sense f self-awareness. (在不敏感的背后是一种强烈的自我意识)”指出不敏感实际上是基于对自我的深刻了解,能引起下文,符合题意。故选D。
【38题详解】
由上文“Practicing insensitivity invlves several key strategies. Firstly, be assertive. Express ur needs and pinins psitively and with cnfidence. Secndly, adpt a frward-lking mindset.(练习不敏感包括几个关键的策略。首先,要自信。积极自信地表达我们的需求和意见。第二,树立前瞻性思维)”可知,该空需要接续前文关于前瞻性思维策略的内容。G选项“Fcus n lng-term gals rather than the ups and dwns f life at the mment. (关注长期目标,而不是当下生活的起伏)”正好强调了如何实践前瞻性思维,即忽视短期波动,专注于长远规划,能承接上文,符合题意。故选G。
【39题详解】
由下文“Once yu becme a bit “blunt” and slw dwn the pace, yu will feel mre cmfrtable (一旦你变得有点“生硬”,放慢节奏,你就会感觉更舒服)”可知,最后一段鼓励读者采纳不敏感的态度,并概述了这样做的好处。C选项“I hpe everyne can btain the ability t be insensitive. (我希望每个人都能获得不敏感的能力)”作为总结性质的句子,鼓励大家学会不敏感,适合放在最后一段段首作为寄语,且能引起下文,符合题意。故选C。

Hw Gratitude Makes Yu Happier
Chsing t be thankful may well be an easy and accessible way t bst yur happiness. We usually think f happiness as a subjective sense f well-being, a feeling f jy and satisfactin. But mre than just an emtin r fleeting (短暂的) feeling, happiness als includes a deep sense f meaning, wrth and purpse in life. Gratitude supprts happiness in ways related t all f these.
Research has shwn gratitude has far-reaching effects n ur physical health. When peple are thankful, they’re mre likely t exercise, eat better, and take care f their health. Much evidence pints t lwer stress, reduced pain and imprved immune systems as a result f being thankful. Even better bld pressure and psitive effects n the heart have been linked t gratitude.
Gratitude has a strng psitive impact n mental health as well. It increases self-esteem, enhances psitive emtins and makes us mre ptimistic since experiencing gratitude activates neurtransmitters like dpamine, which we assciate with pleasure, and sertnin, which regulates ur md. It als prmtes feelings like trust and genersity, which are induced by xytcin, a hrmne released by the brain.
Just like a muscle, thankfulness is smething we need t exercise mre ften. One way is t learn frm the Scandinavians, wh, the UN’s Wrld Happiness Reprt suggests, are the happiest peple in the wrld. It’s wrth pausing t think abut why. Scandinavians themselves are determining their levels f happiness. They are appreciative f a functining sciety where they have ecnmic security and where scial institutins supprt everyne. Yet, there is smething else. They value “mderatin”, a just enugh-ness. They dn’t chase happiness r wrk vertime fr mnths at a time. They remain grateful fr a healthy wrk-life balance. As a result f this satisfactin and cntentment, they feel their lives have value.
S, take sme time t be thankful. It can impact yur happiness and enhance many aspects f yur life.
40. What des happiness include besides what we usually think?

【解析】
【导语】本文是说明文。文章主要讲解了感恩如何使人更快乐,内容涉及感恩对身心健康的具体益处,并引用了研究结果作为支持,还举了斯堪的纳维亚人幸福感的例子来阐述观点,最后提出建议。
【40题详解】
考查细节理解。由文章第一段中的“We usually think f happiness as a subjective sense f well-being, a feeling f jy and satisfactin. But mre than just an emtin r fleeting (短暂的) feeling, happiness als includes a deep sense f meaning, wrth and purpse in life. Gratitude supprts happiness in ways related t all f these. (我们通常认为幸福是一种主观的幸福感,一种快乐和满足的感觉。但幸福不仅仅是一种情感或短暂的感觉,它还包括一种深刻的意义、价值和生活目的。感恩以与所有这些相关的方式支持幸福。)”可知,除了我们通常认为的,幸福还包括生活中深刻的意义、价值和目标感。故答案为It includes a deep sense f meaning, wrth and purpse in life.
【41题详解】
考查细节理解。由文章第二段中的“Research has shwn gratitude has far-reaching effects n ur physical health. (研究表明,感恩对我们的身体健康有着深远的影响。)”以及第三段中的“Gratitude has a strng psitive impact n mental health as well. (感恩对心理健康也有着强烈的积极影响。)”可知,感恩对身体健康和心理健康都有积极影响。故答案为:(Bth) physical (health) and mental health.
【42题详解】
考查推理判断。根据第三段中的“Scandinavians themselves are determining their levels f happiness. They are appreciative f a functining sciety where they have ecnmic security and where scial institutins supprt everyne. Yet, there is smething else. They value “mderatin”, a just enugh-ness. They dn’t chase happiness r wrk vertime fr mnths at a time. They remain grateful fr a healthy wrk-life balance. As a result f this satisfactin and cntentment, they feel their lives have value. (斯堪的纳维亚人自己决定着他们的幸福水平。他们欣赏一个运转良好的社会,在那里他们有经济保障,社会机构支持每个人。然而,还有其他一些事情。他们重视“适度”,一种刚刚好。他们不会追求幸福,也不会一次加班好几个月。他们对健康的工作与生活平衡心存感激。由于这种满足和知足,他们觉得自己的生活有价值。)”可知,“Scandinavians dn’t wrk vertime fr mnths at a time because they feel their lives have value. (斯堪的纳维亚人不会一次加班好几个月,因为他们觉得自己的生命有价值。)”逻辑错误,正确的逻辑应该是:斯堪的纳维亚人不会一次加班好几个月,因为他们重视“适度”,一种刚刚好的状态。故答案为:Scandinavians dn’t wrk vertime fr mnths at a time because they feel their lives have value. Scandinavians dn’t wrk vertime fr mnths at a time because they value “mderatin”, a just enugh-ness.
【43题详解】
考查语言表达。练习感恩的一种方法是每天写一本感恩日记,写下你每天感激的三件事。另一种做法是经常反思生活中的积极因素,培养感恩的态度,也可以培养感恩。故答案为:One way t practice gratitude is t keep a daily gratitude jurnal and write dwn three things yu are grateful fr each day. Anther practice is t ften reflect n the psitive factrs in yur life and cultivate an attitude f gratitude, which can als cultivate gratitude.
