Gbble, gbble, grab yur turkey baster, it’s Thanksgiving. Canadian Thanksgiving, that is. Thugh the US versin takes place n the furth Thursday f Nvember, Canada celebrates n the secnd Mnday f Octber, which this year falls n Octber 14. Fr mre insights int this annual great feast, we reached ut t Andrew McIntsh, senir subject editr with the Canadian Encyclpedia.
Naturally, we first had t address a questin ften asked by Americans — why des Canada celebrate Thanksgiving in Octber instead f Nvember? Histrically, he says, Thanksgiving in Canada has generally been abut celebrating the fall harvest and giving thanks fr the fd it prvides befre the cld seasn sets in. “Winter cmes a lt earlier in Canada, s ur fall harvest happens earlier, t,” he says.
“Canadian Thanksgiving was set as the secnd Mnday in Octber, when the weather is still amenable t utdr activities, in 1957.” But the cuntry was celebrating lng befre that. The first fficial Thanksgiving hliday tk place in 1879, and in the fllwing years, it didn’t always happen in Octber. “The exact date fr each year was determined annually by Parliament, which als assigned a unifying theme each year — it ften centered arund celebrating the mnarchy,” says McIntsh.
Interestingly, he ntes the hliday ccurred as late in the year as December 6 and even cincided with American Thanksgiving a few times. As fr the present day, sme Canadians — including this writer’s extended family — pt t hst their Thanksgiving meal the day befre the fficial Mnday hliday, allwing thse wh drve r flew in fr the lng weekend time t jurney back hme and nt have t take an extra day ff wrk.
24. Why des Canada celebrate Thanksgiving in Octber instead f Nvember?
A. Because Canadians want t fllw the histrical cnventin.
B. Because winter cmes earlier.
C. Because Canadians are accustmed t it.
D. Because cld weather cmes slwer.
25. Which best explains the underlined wrd in the third paragraph?
A. Adaptable.B. Suitable.C. Affrdable.D. Imaginable.
26. Why d sme Canadians hst their Thanksgiving meal in advance?
A. Because it is ecnmical fr them t d s.
B. Because they are extremely hmesick.
C. Because they want t earn mre mney.
D. Because they can g back t wrk in time.
27. What is a suitable title fr the text?
A. Thanksgiving in America.
B. The Differences f Thanksgiving in USA and Canada.
C. Thanksgiving in Canada.
D. The Origins f Thanksgiving in America and Canada.
【答案】24. B 25. B 26. D 27. C
【语篇解读】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了加拿大感恩节的庆祝时间、历史背景以及现代庆祝方式。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段中“Winter cmes a lt earlier in Canada, s ur fall harvest happens earlier, t.(加拿大的冬天来得更早，所以我们的秋季收获也来得更早。)”可知，加拿大在10月庆祝感恩节是因为冬天来得更早，秋季收获也相应提前。故选B。
【25题详解】
词句猜测题。根据上文“Winter cmes a lt earlier in Canada, s ur fall harvest happens earlier, t.(加拿大的冬天来得更早，所以我们的秋季收获也来得更早。)”可知，加拿大冬天来得更早，秋季收获也相应提前。由此可知，加拿大将感恩节定为十月的第二个星期一，那时天气仍然适合户外活动。amenable在这里的意思是“适合的，适宜的”。因此，选项B“Suitable（适合的）”是最佳解释。故选B。
【26题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章最后一段中“sme Canadians — including this writer’s extended family — pt t hst their Thanksgiving meal the day befre the fficial Mnday hliday, allwing thse wh drve r flew in fr the lng weekend time t jurney back hme and nt have t take an extra day ff wrk.(一些加拿大人，包括这位作家的亲戚，选择在正式的周一假期前一天举办感恩节宴会，这样那些开车或飞来度过长周末的人就有时间回家，而不必额外请一天假。)”可知，有些加拿大人提前举办感恩节宴会是为了能够及时回去工作。故选D。
【27题详解】
主旨大意题。文章主要介绍了加拿大感恩节的庆祝时间、历史由来以及一些现代习俗。因此，最合适的标题是“加拿大的感恩节”。故选C。
C
The nn-invasive therapy, knwn as transcranial direct current stimulatin (TDCS), is designed t stimulate areas f the brain linked t md regulatin by delivering a painless, weak electrical current thrugh electrdes placed n the scalp (头皮).
In the trial, Fu and her clleagues trained 120 wmen and 54 men, all f whm had been diagnsed with a majr depressive disrder, t use the TDCS headset and randmly allcated peple t either the treatment r a cntrl grup. Thse in the treatment grup received a current f 2 milliamperes t the scalp — abut 0.5% f the amunt drawn by a 100-watt light bulb — fr 30 minutes, 5 times a week fr the first 13 weeks, then. 3 times a week fr 7 weeks. Participants in the cntrl grup wre a sham (假的) headset, nly delivering a brief pulse f current at the start f each sessin, imitating the feeling f real TDCS withut prviding the same stimulatin, which can reduce errrs f the experiment significantly.
After 10 weeks, the treatment grup’s scres n a scale that measures depressin symptms drpped by 9.41 pints, whereas the cntrl grup’s scre decreased by 7.14 pints. Nearly 45% f participants with the active TDCS device experienced a reductin in r recvery frm their symptms, cmpared with almst 22% f thse with a sham device.
Althugh these results are encuraging, previus research has suggested that TDCS desn’t wrk fr everyne. The next step shuld be t understand why TDCS wrks fr sme peple but nt thers, and t lk fr ways t persnalize the treatment, he adds. “Different peple need different dsages.”
“Three decades ag, I wuldn’t have thught that this stimulatin des anything n the brain,” says Padberg. But nw it is knwn that TDCS affects brain activity, “I’m pretty sure that an ptimized (最优化的) methd will make it t clinical care ne day,” he says.
28. What is the aim f TDCS?
A. Delivering a painful, weak electrical current n the scalp.
B. Stimulating the areas f the brain related t md management.
C. Treating peple withut feelings.
D. Testing whether a current is effective in healing depressin.
29. What can we infer frm the experiment?
A. Nt all participants were suffering frm depressin.
B. The number f men and wmen in the experiment was identical.
C. Thse in the treatment grup received a current fr 36 times.
D. The sham headset culd guarantee the accuracy f the experiment.
30. What will be mentined in the fllwing research?
A. Different amunts t different peple.
B. The reasns why TDCS just wrks fr all peple.
C. The prmtin f the treatment.
D. The cst f the devices in the experiment.
31. What is Padberg’s attitude t the future f TDCS?
A. Ambiguus.B. Dubtful.
C. Optimistic. D. Pessimistic.
【答案】28. B 29. C 30. A 31. C
【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。主要讲述的是经颅直流电刺激（TDCS）治疗抑郁症的试验结果及其未来个性化治疗的研究方向。

【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第二段“Thse in the treatment grup received a current f 2 milliamperes t the scalp — abut 0.5% f the amunt drawn by a 100-watt light bulb — fr 30 minutes, 5 times a week fr the first 13 weeks, then 3 times a week fr 7 weeks.(治疗组的患者头皮接受了2毫安的电流——大约是100瓦灯泡耗电量的0.5%——每次30分钟，前13周每周5次，然后每周3次，持续7周。)”可知，治疗组的患者在前13周每周接受5次治疗，之后7周每周接受3次治疗，总共接受了36次治疗。故选C。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第四段“The next step shuld be t understand why TDCS wrks fr sme peple but nt thers, and t lk fr ways t persnalize the treatment. “Different peple need different dsages.”(下一步应该是了解为什么TDCS对一些人有效而对另一些人无效，并寻找个性化治疗的方法。“不同的人需要不同的剂量。”)”可知，接下来的研究将探讨为什么TDCS对不同人的效果不同，并寻找个性化治疗的方法，即不同的人需要不同的剂量。故选A。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“I’m pretty sure that an ptimized methd will make it t clinical care ne day,” he says.(“我相信，总有一天，一个优化的方法会应用到临床治疗中，”他说。)”可推知，Padberg对TDCS的未来持乐观态度，认为总有一天会有一个优化的方法应用到临床治疗中。故选C。

Finding fulfilment at the end f life is nt that unusual, as it’s pssible t feel happiness alngside sadness, and ther seemingly cnflicting emtins. Simn Bas, wh wrte a candid accunt f living with cancer, passed away n July 15 at the age f 47. He tld the reprter: “My pain is under cntrl and I’m terribly happy — it sunds weird t say, but I’m as happy as I’ve ever been in my life.”
It may seem dd that a persn culd be happy as the end draws near, but in my experience as a clinical psychlgist wrking with peple at the end f their lives, it’s nt that uncmmn. There is quite a lt f research suggesting that fear f death is at the uncnscius center f being human. William James, an American philspher, called the knwledge that we must die “the wrm at the cre” f the human cnditin.
But a study in Psychlgical Science shws that peple nearing death use mre psitive language t describe their experience than thse wh just imagine death. This suggests that the experience f dying is mre pleasant — r, at least, less unpleasant — than we might picture it.
In the BBC interview, Bas shared sme f the insights that helped him cme t accept his situatin. He mentined the imprtance f enjying life and priritizing meaningful experiences, suggesting that acknwledging death can enhance ur appreciatin fr life.
Despite the pain and difficulties, Bas seemed cheerful, hping his attitude wuld supprt his wife and parents during the difficult times ahead. Bas’s wrds ech the Rman philspher Seneca wh advised that: “T have lived lng enugh depends neither upn ur years nr upn ur days. but upn ur minds.”
A mre recent thinker expressing similar sentiments is the psychiatrist Viktr Frankl wh laid the grundwrk fr a frm f existential psychtherapy. Its mst recent adaptatin is meaning-centered psychtherapy, which ffers peple with cancer a way t imprve their sense f meaning.
32. Hw did Simn Bas feel as his death was arund the crner?
A. Upset.B. Appreciative.C. Desperate.D. Delighted.
33. What can we learn frm Paragraph 2?
A. Death is the cre in peple’s lives.
B. Everyne hlds fear in their hearts.
C. There are wrms in peple’s hearts.
D. Human beings can find ways t extend life span.
34. What can we learn frm Bas?
A. Ignring death can prmte ur gratitude fr life.
B. It is ur mind that decides hw lng we can live.
C. T have lived lng enugh depends n ur achievements.
D. Our years and days decide wh we are.
35. What des the text mainly talk abut?
A. The life f Simn Bas living with cancer.
B. Things t make peple happy when they are dying.
C. Peple’s tendency t feel happy when they are dying.
D. Ways f enhancing peple’s sense f meaning.
【答案】32. D 33. B 34. B 35. C
【语篇解读】这是一篇议论文。文章讨论了人们在临终时可能会感到幸福的现象，并通过Simn Bas的故事以及相关的研究和哲学观点来阐述了这一观点。
【32题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段“He tld the reprter: “My pain is under cntrl and I’m terribly happy — it sunds weird t say, but I’m as happy as I’ve ever been in my life.”(他告诉记者：“我的疼痛得到了控制，我非常高兴——这么说听起来很奇怪，但我现在是我一生中最快乐的时候。”)”可推知，根据Simn Bas的话，他在临终时感到非常快乐。故选D。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“There is quite a lt f research suggesting that fear f death is at the uncnscius center f being human. William James, an American philspher, called the knwledge that we must die “the wrm at the cre” f the human cnditin.(有很多研究表明，对死亡的恐惧是人类无意识的核心。美国哲学家威廉·詹姆斯将我们必须死亡的知识称为人类状况的“核心之虫”。)”可知，第二段提到，对死亡的恐惧是人类无意识的核心，这说明每个人心中都有对死亡的恐惧。故选B。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第五段“Bas’s wrds ech the Rman philspher Seneca wh advised that: “T have lived lng enugh depends neither upn ur years nr upn ur days, but upn ur minds.”(Bas的话与罗马哲学家塞涅卡的建议相呼应：“活得够长既不在于我们的年数，也不在于我们的天数，而在于我们的思想。”)”可知，根据Bas的话和塞涅卡的观点，我们可以得出结论，是我们的思想决定我们能活多久。故选B。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“Finding fulfilment at the end f life is nt that unusual, as it’s pssible t feel happiness alngside sadness, and ther seemingly cnflicting emtins.(在生命终结时找到满足感并不罕见，因为人们可能在悲伤和其他看似相互冲突的情绪中感受到幸福)”可知，本文主要讨论了人们在临终时可能会感到幸福的现象，并通过Simn Bas的故事以及相关的研究和哲学观点来阐述这一观点。由此可知，选项C“人们在临终时倾向于感到快乐”能够概括文章大意。故选C。

根据空前的“Have yu ever shared a serius pinin n scial media, nly t receive n respnse — r wrse, be made fun f?(你有没有在社交媒体上分享过严肃的观点，却没有得到任何回应——或者更糟的是，被取笑过？)”可知，此处通过提问的形式引出本文讲述的话题，结合下文的“At first glance, Scial AI seems like any ther scial media platfrm.(乍一看，Scial AI和其他社交媒体平台没什么两样)”可知，此空处讲述的内容应引出Scial AI这一概念，G选项“A new app called Scial AI has emerged t ptentially ease such awkward mments and disappintment.(一款名为Scial AI的新应用程序已经出现，可能会缓解这种尴尬和失望的时刻)”引出了Scial AI这一概念，且其中的awkward mments and disappintment与空前提出的问题内容吻合。故选G项。
【37题详解】
根据空前的“At first glance, Scial AI seems like any ther scial media platfrm.(乍一看，社交人工智能和其他社交媒体平台没什么两样)”可知， ScialAI看起来与其他社交媒体平台无异，结合下文的“Hwever, the key difference is that yu’re the nly real persn n the platfrm; everyne else yu interact with is an AI bt.(然而，关键的区别在于，你是平台上唯一的真人；与你互动的其他人都是人工智能机器人)”可知，空后的内容与此处的内容为转折关系，由此可知，此空讲述的内容应与空前的内容吻合，B选项“Yu can pst tweets, fllw thers, and gain fllwers in return.(你可以发布推文，关注他人，并获得追随者作为回报)”举例说明其他社交媒体都有的功能，符合语境，且与空后的内容为转折关系。故选B项。
