As the awards seasn appraches, students and teachers will gather t celebrate academic perfrmance, citizenship, leadership and extracurricular (课外的) excellence. Schls bill these awards as a way t recgnize students’ achievements. But are they a gd idea?
The philsphy behind these awards is t slidify psitive behavirs and encurage students t excel. This cncept is rted in behaviurism t educatin, a psychlgical thery that suggests external rewards can shape behavir. But such rewards d nt necessarily lead t lasting engagement. Once the desire fr reward fade, the behavir ften desn’t stick.
Research has als shwn awards can smetimes d mre harm than gd. When students fcus n earning an award rather than enjying the activity, their mtivatin shifts frm internal t external. This means they might participate nly fr the sake f the award, rather than fr the jy f learning r persnal grwth. A US study f schl-aged children fund that thse wh said “I ask questins in class because I want t learn new things” achieved higher academic than thse wh said “I like schl subjects where it’s pretty easy t just learn the answers”.
Beynd affecting mtivatin, awards can als lead children t grw dependent n external recgnitin. When kids get used t seeking apprval thrugh awards, they may struggle t find self-wrth in their wn effrts.
Fr the kids wh dn’t receive awards, they may feel inadequate r discuraged, especially if the same few children are always celebrated. This situatin can create a fixed mindset where kids think their abilities can’t change r prgress, as ppsed t a grwth mindset where students firmly believe they can becme better thrugh hard wrk, gd strategies and help frm thers.
This is nt t say schls shuld never give students awards. Fr parents and educatrs, whether kids receive an award r nt, there are always alternatives t talk abut t their achievements at the end f the schl year.
28. What is suggested abut the impact f awards in Paragraph 2?
A. Temprary.B. Mtivating.
C. Overestimated.D. Transfrmative.
29. Hw d awards negatively affect students’ academic perfrmance?
A. They create vercnfidence in students.
B. They weaken students’ internal mtivatin.
C. They mislead students in prblem-slving.
D. They discurage students frm seeking answers.
30. What distinguishes a grwth mindset frm a fixed ne?
A. Faith in self-imprvement.
B. Gd academic perfrmance.
C. Preference fr external apprval.
D. Active classrm engagement.
31. What will prbably be discussed in the fllwing paragraphs?
A. Why schls refuse t give up awards.
B. Hw t encurage kids beynd awards.
C. Why schls seek alternatives t awards.
D. Hw t teach kids self-wrth withut awards.
【答案】28. A 29. B 30. A 31. B
【语篇解读】这是一篇说明文，文章介绍了学校给学生奖励这种方法的弊端。
【28题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“The philsphy behind these awards is t slidify psitive behavirs and encurage students t excel.(这些奖项背后的理念是巩固积极的行为，鼓励学生超越)”和“But such rewards d nt necessarily lead t lasting engagement. Once the desire fr reward fade, the behavir ften desn’t stick.(但这样的奖励并不一定会带来持久的参与。一旦对奖励的渴望消退，这种行为通常就不会坚持下去)”可知， 本段虽提及了奖励是为了巩固积极的行为，鼓励学生超越，但随后强调这样的奖励并不一定会带来持久的参与。一旦对奖励的渴望消退，这种行为通常就不会坚持下去，这说明第二段意在强调奖励的影响是短暂的，为后续段落论证awards的不良影响做好铺垫，因此正确答案是A。选项B. Mtivating：第二段暗示了奖励的激励作用并不持久；选项C. Overestimated“被高估的”，本段没有提及；选项D. Transfrmative“变革性的”，虽然奖励可能会在短期内产生某种影响，但不会改变人们的根本动机或行为。故选A。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“When students fcus n earning an award rather than enjying the activity, their mtivatin shifts frm internal t external. This means they might participate nly fr the sake f the award, rather than fr the jy f learning r persnal grwth.(当学生专注于获得奖励而不是享受活动时，他们的动机就会从内部转移到外部。这意味着他们可能只是为了奖励而参加，而不是为了学习或个人成长的乐趣)”可知，奖励可能会让学生更关注外部奖励而非学习本身，导致他们的动机从内部转移到外部，并且意味着他们可能只是为了奖励而参加，而不是为了学习或个人成长的乐趣，也就是说，奖励会削弱学生的内在学习动力。故选B。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段中“This situatin can create a fixed mindset where kids think their abilities can’t change r prgress, as ppsed t a grwth mindset where students firmly believe they can becme better thrugh hard wrk, gd strategies and help frm thers.(这种情况会造成一种固定思维，孩子们认为他们的能力不会改变或进步，而不是成长型思维，学生们坚信他们可以通过努力工作，好的策略和他人的帮助变得更好)”可知，固定思维(fixed mindset)的人认为自己的能力是固定的，无法改变，而成长型思维(grwth mindset)的人则相信通过努力、策略和帮助可以进步。两者之间的区别在于是否相信自己的能力会得到提升。故选A。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。最后一段中“Fr parents and educatrs, whether kids receive an award r nt, there are always alternatives t talk abut t their achievements at the end f the schl year.(对于家长和教育者来说，无论孩子是否获得奖励，在学年结束时总是有其他的选择来谈论他们的成就)”提到，无论孩子是否获得奖励，在学年结束时总是有其他的选择来谈论他们的成就，这表明接下来的内容可能会讨论如何在没有奖励的情况下鼓励孩子。对于选项A. Why schls refuse t give up awards，文章没有暗示学校抗拒放弃奖励；对于选项C. Why schls seek alternatives t awards，“alternatives”只是讨论的一部分，重点在于如何鼓励学生；对于选项D. Hw t teach kids self-wrth withut awards，这里涉及的自我价值，解读前文后可发现，其范围较窄。故选B。
D
Frm abve, cars inching dwn the highway lk like ants. But actual ants manage t avid the stp-and-g traffic. Researchers are nw learning frm ants t prgram self-driving cars that dn’t jam up.
The free flw f traffic becmes unstable as vehicle density (密度) increases n a highway. At 15 vehicles per mile per track, ne driver hitting their brakes (刹车) can cause a persistent wave f jam. This phenmenn, knwn as a phase transitin, is similar t hw water freezes int ice, explains Nishinari, a mathematical physicist at the University f Tky.
Ants can maintain their flw in high-density cnditins. By studying Ochetellus s ants, researchers discvered their secret: they travel in small grups, mve at nearly cnstant rates, with space between ne anther—and they dn’t speed up t pass thers.
Human drivers at rush hur, hnestly, “are priritizing persnal cnvenience”, says study c-authr Nicla Pugn. But self-driving cars, if widely adpted, culd be engineered t cperate like ants. In the future, these vehicles wuld share real-time data with nearby cars t facilitate smther traffic flw by adjusting speed and spacing r by nt vertaking thers.
This vehicle netwrk is mdeled after hw ants crdinate (协同) using smells rather than fllwing a leader. “There is n leader.” explains Pinter-Wllman, a behaviral scientist currently studying ants at the UCLA, yet their mvement remains rganized. And in bth ant and vehicle traffic, this decentralized system can be “very, very strng” and adaptive, Nishinari says.
Still, ants have advantages that self-driving cars lack. Pinter-Wllman pints ut, “Ants simply expand pathways as wide as they please, unlike cars stuck n highways. When they hit a jam in a tunnel, they just climb the wall r walk n the ceiling. Plus, ants never crash; if ne is in the way, they literally step ver it and keep mving.”
Tday’s drivers can learn at least ne thing frm ants t avid causing a traffic jam: keep away. Keeping a safe distance frm the car ahead prevents braking waves frm turning int full-blwn traffic jams. “Just keeping away.” he says, can help traffic flw smthly.
32. What des Paragraph 2 mainly talk abut?
A. What a phase transitin explains.
B. Hw stable traffic starts t break dwn.
C. Why vehicle density impacts traffic.
D. When traffic jams becme unavidable.
33. What can self-driving cars d t imprve traffic flw?
A. Cmmunicate purpsefully.
B. Overtake thers intelligently.
C. Functin cperatively.
D. Prevent sudden braking smarty.
34. What is a key feature f this ant-inspired netwrk in self-driving cars?
A. Disregarding physical rad limitatins.
B. Organizing traffic under a single leader car.
C. Adapting by predicting driver behavir.
D. Wrking thrugh self-rganized crdinatin.
35. In what tne des Pinter-Wllman describe ants’ advantages ver cars?
A. Schlarly.B. Humrus.C. Reflective.D. Inspiratinal.
【答案】32. B 33. C 34. D 35. B

This phenmenn, knwn as a phase transitin, is similar t hw water freezes int ice, explains Nishinari, a mathematical physicist at the University f Tky. (随着高速公路上车辆密度的增加，交通的自由流动变得不稳定。在每英里每车道15辆车的情况下，一名司机踩刹车可能会导致持续的拥堵。东京大学的数学物理学家Nishinari解释说，这种现象被称为相变，类似于水结冰的过程。)”可知，第二段主要讨论了稳定的交通如何开始崩溃。故选B。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“But self-driving cars, if widely adpted, culd be engineered t cperate like ants.In the future, these vehicles wuld share real-time data with nearby cars t facilitate smther traffic flw by adjusting speed and spacing r by nt vertaking thers. (但如果自动驾驶汽车被广泛采用，它可以像蚂蚁一样协同工作。未来，这些车辆将与附近的汽车共享实时数据，通过调整速度和间距或不超车来促进更平稳的交通流。)”可知，自动驾驶汽车可以通过协同工作来改善交通流量。故选C。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段“This vehicle netwrk is mdeled after hw ants crdinate (协同) using smells rather than fllwing a leader. “There is n leader.” explains Pinter-Wllman, a behaviral scientist currently studying ants at the UCLA, yet their mvement remains rganized. And in bth ant and vehicle traffic, this decentralized system can be “very, very strng” and adaptive, Nishinari says. (这种车辆网络是模仿蚂蚁如何使用气味而不是跟随领导者进行协调的。“没有领导者。”目前在加州大学洛杉矶分校研究蚂蚁的行为科学家Pinter-Wllman解释道，但他们的移动仍然是有组织的。Nishinari说，在蚂蚁和车辆交通中，这种分散的系统可以“非常、非常强大”和自适应。)”可知，这种受蚂蚁启发的网络的关键特征是通过自我组织的协调工作。故选D。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。根据第六段“Pinter-Wllman pints ut, “Ants simply expand pathways as wide as they please, unlike cars stuck n highways. When they hit a jam in a tunnel, they just climb the wall r walk n the ceiling. Plus, ants never crash; if ne is in the way, they literally step ver it and keep mving.” (Pinter-Wllman指出：“蚂蚁可以随意拓宽道路，不像汽车会被困在高速公路上。当它们在隧道里遇到堵塞时，它们就爬墙或者在天花板上行走。此外，蚂蚁永远不会相撞；如果有一只蚂蚁挡路，其他蚂蚁真的会从它身上跨过去，然后继续前进。”)”可知，Pinter-Wllman用幽默的语气描述了蚂蚁的优势。故选B。

【语篇解读】本文是说明文。讲述了如何支持慢时尚。
【36题详解】
根据前文“A recent survey revealed that while 74% f shppers recgnize the envirnmental impact f their cnsumptin habits and 50% view fast fashin as harmful, 72% still purchase it fr the cnvenience and unbeatable prices.(最近的一项调查显示，尽管74%的购物者认识到他们的消费习惯对环境的影响，50%的人认为快时尚有害，但72%的人仍然为了方便和优惠的价格而购买快时尚)”以及后文“Yu dn’t even need t buy anything new t start.(你甚至不需要买任何新的东西来开始)”可知，前文提到多数消费者意识到快时尚的危害但仍因便利和低价购买，后文强调“你甚至不需要买新东西就能开始”。选项G“支持slw fashin其实比想象中更容易”承上启下，既呼应矛盾现状，又引出下文具体建议，符合逻辑。故选G项。
【37题详解】
设空位于段尾，是对前文的总结，根据前文“If mending isn’t yur strength, cnsider visiting a tailr r a lcal repair cafe.(如果修补不是你的强项，可以考虑去裁缝店或当地的修理店)”可知，C项“它可以给磨损的部件第二次生命”是对前文的总结，符合文意。故选C项。
【38题详解】
根据前文“Next, shp mindfully. An verflwing clset (衣柜) filled with clthes yu nly semi-lve r barely wear is ften a sign f impulse (冲动) buying.(接下来，用心购物。衣橱里塞满了你不怎么喜欢或很少穿的衣服，这通常是冲动购物的表现)”以及后文“If yu abslutely want t shp, chse well-made, lng-lasting pieces. Lk fr high-quality fabrics, single-material cmpsitins fr easier recycling, r natural fibers that bidegrade mre easily instead f simply chsing items that appear sustainable.(如果你真的想购物，那就选择做工精良、经久耐用的衣服。寻找高质量的织物，单一材料组成，更容易回收，或天然纤维，更容易生物降解，而不是简单地选择那些看起来可持续的东西)”可知，本段讨论“明智购物”，指出衣柜堆积是因冲动消费，后文建议购买高品质单品。选项F“购买前重新评估真实需求”直接针对冲动消费提出解决方法，与“verflwing clset…impulse buying”形成因果逻辑。故选F项。
【39题详解】
设空位于段首，为本段中心句，根据后文“Making the mst f what yu have ffers cuntless pssibilities, frm exchanging clthes with friends and brrwing utfits fr special ccasins t dnating unused items t thse wh will appreciate them. Online free cycling grups are als a gldmine fr yu t give and receive pre-lved clthing withut cntributing t waste.(充分利用你拥有的东西可以提供无数的可能性，从和朋友交换衣服，到在特殊场合借衣服，再到把没有用过的衣服捐给那些喜欢它们的人。在线免费回收小组也是一座金矿，你可以在不造成浪费的情况下赠送和接收旧衣服)”可知，本段列举的旧衣交换、借用、捐赠、免费回收等行为，均属于二手物品利用的范畴。选项B“拥抱二手物品利用行动”是此段主旨的概括。故选B项。
【40题详解】
根据前文“Fast fashin has industrialized clthing int thrwaway gds, undermining their true wrth.(快时尚已经将服装工业化为一次性商品，破坏了它们的真正价值)”以及后文“It’s a lifestyle and a philsphy that acknwledges the real values f clthing fr what it truly represents: the resurces, wrkmanship, and peple behind every piece.(这是一种生活方式和哲学，承认服装的真正价值，因为它真正代表了：每件衣服背后的资源、工艺和人)”可知，本段批判fast fashin的“一次性”属性，后续句子强调slw fashin是“生活方式和哲学”。选项E“慢时尚不仅是购物选择”点明其深层意义，与后文“lifestyle and philsphy”形成递进解释，很好地总结了慢时尚的真正含义。故选E项。

I have a ty, a small stuffed (毛绒的) cat, which has remained ne f my mst treasured pssessins. I call it VIP — Very Imprtant Pet. It sits n my desk as a reminder f a mment with my brther.
Luca, my lder brther, had autism (自闭症). Mst f the time, he stayed quiet. He never penly expressed his feelings r cmmunicated the way ther peple did. We were family, but there was always a quiet distance between us — ne that I didn’t fully understand at the time.
Luca and I attended the same schl, but ur paths rarely crssed. He was tw grades ahead f me, and thugh we lived tgether, ur schl lives were entirely separate. I had rarely visited his classrm r expected him t find me. But ne thing I did knw was that his class had a reward system where students earned tickets fr gd behavir and culd trade them fr prizes every Friday. Yet Luca never brught hme any prizes. I ften wndered why-maybe he wasn’t interested, maybe he didn’t earn enugh tickets, r maybe he just didn’t like waiting fr his turn.
Then ne day, I remember clearly it was Friday, smething unexpected happened. While I was in class, I reached int my schl bag fr my flder (资料夹) and suddenly realized I had taken Luca’s by mistake! Remembering I was suppsed t have my wn flder, I quickly tld my teacher what happened and asked if I culd g t his classrm t exchange the flders. She said yes.
As I made my way tward his classrm, a strange mix f excitement and nervusness settled ver me. I had never been there befre, and fr reasns I culdn’t quite explain, it felt like stepping int an unfamiliar wrld. When I arrived, I heard a sft buzz (嗡嗡声) f nise inside. I explained the situatin t his teacher, wh smiled knwingly and called Luca ver. We exchanged flders, and I turned t leave, expecting nthing mre than a simple trade.

But then Luca signaled fr me t wait utside. Puzzled, I std there, listening t the lively sund frm his classrm. Minutes passed and my heart started t race faster with bth curisity and uncertainty.

His hands were hidden behind his back, and his face was slightly flushed with excitement. “I gt this fr yu.” he said almst shyly, befre extending his hands and giving me a small stuffed cat.
I stared at the ty, trying t make sense f what had just happened. Then it hit me. It was Friday — the day his class exchanged tickets fr prizes. Luca had been waiting fr his turn, but when I shwed up, he made a chice. Instead f picking smething fr himself, he used almst all f his hard-earned tickets, and spent them n me. My brther lved me; he just shwed it differently. This stuffed cat, VIP, was prf f the quiet, unspken lve f a brther wh, in his wn way, had given me ne f the mst precius gifts f all. Frankly, it feels s sweet t knw that I am always his VIP — Very Imprtant Persn.
