I'm an 18-year-ld pre-medical student, tall and gd-lking, with tw shrt stry bks and quite a number f essays t my credit. Why am I singing such praises f myself? Just t explain that the attainment f self - pride cmes frm a great deal f self - lve, and t attain it, ne must first learn t accept neself as ne is. That was where my struggle began.
Brn and raised in Africa, I had always taken my African rigin as burden. My self - dislike was further fueled when my family had t relcate t Nrway, where I attended a high schl. Cmpared t all the white girls arund me, with their glden hair and delicate lips, I, a black girl, had curly hair and full, red lips. My nse ften had a thin sheet f sweat n it, whatever the weather was. I just wanted t bury myself in my shell crying "I'm s different!"
What als cntributed t my self - dislike was my ccasinal stuttering (口吃), which had weakened my self - cnfidence. It always std between me and any fine pprtunity. I'd taken it as an excuse t avid any public speaking sessins, and unknwingly let it rule ver me.
Frtunately, as I grew lder, there came a turning pint. One day a white girl caught my eye n the schl bus when she suddenly turned back. T my astnishment, she had a thin sheet f sweat n her nse t, and it was in Nvember! "Ww," I whispered t myself, "this isn't a genetic disrder after all. It's perfectly nrmal." Days later, my life tk anther twist. Searching the Internet fr stuttering cures, I accidentally learned that such famus peple as Isaac Newtn and Winstn Churchill als stuttered. I felt a weight lift ff my shulders, then an idea suddenly hit me — if I'm smart, I shuldn't allw my stuttering t stand between me and my success.
Anther bst t my self - cnfidence came days later as I was watching the news abut Oprah Winfrey, the famus talk shw hst and writer — she's black t! Whenever I think f her stry and my frmer dislike f my clr, I'm practically filled with shame.
Tday, I've grwn t accept what I am with pride; it simply gives me feeling f uniqueness. The idea f self - lve has taken n a whle new meaning fr me: there's always smething fantastic abut us, and what we need t d is learn t appreciate it.

In a recent article, Markham Heid shares with us an unusual life crisis. At 41, he has built what many wuld regard as the gd life: he has a family; he is healthy, prductive, and creative; he has time t travel, read, exercise, and see friends. Yet, he feels that "smething is ff." T fight against this feeling, sme f his friends have turned t special retreats, while thers try t slve it thrugh fitness. What makes Heid's prblem smewhat dd is that it des nt seem t arise frm anything specific. If he had lst his jb, had n time fr himself, r was struggling in his marriage, the feeling wuld be understandable.
In the histry f philsphy, there have been many attempts t understand such a pwerful but bjectless feeling. Bredm, anxiety, depressin and despair are sme f the descriptins this md has received. Heid ends up attributing his crisis t the lack f new experiences. The Danish philspher Sren Kierkegaard calls this the "illusin f crp rtatin", the idea that changing the envirnment frequently can save us frm this md. The German philspher Martin Heidegger als describes a similar state:
ne may still be surrunded by the same peple and activities, but these n lnger engage us as they used t. He calls it a kind f "anxiety" created by nthing in particular. N wnder the psychlgist Sigmund Freud nce described anxiety as a "riddle."
But what really drives this md is nt the need fr new experiences. It is nt even the particulars f ur individual lives r the cultures we belng t, but that we have been given a life t live in the first place, the taste f pssibility that cmes with being alive. This md is nt due t dubts like "D I have enugh hbbies?" r "Have I achieved my gal?" It is related t the mre fundamental questins like "What des it mean t be human?" "What am I suppsed t d with the fact that I was given a life?" and "What kind f life is pssible fr me?" This is why this md is likely t appear frequently in ur life. This is why nce many f ur life gals are fulfilled, we begin t wnder what life itself is fr.
These questins never have a final answer and they can always leave us with a great sense f anguish abut wh we are and hw we shuld g n. Nevertheless, recgnizing that these dubts are there, and that they matter, can at least allw us t knw what may be missing, even when everything is gd.
28. The authr shares Markham Heid's crisis mainly t ______.
A. present an argumentB. intrduce a tpicC. make an assumptinD. evaluate an event
29. Accrding t the authr, hw can the crisis in the passage be dealt with?
A. By studying philsphy.B. By develping new hbbies.
C. By ging travelling frequently.D. By embracing the bjectless feeling.
30. What des the wrd "anguish" underlined in the last paragraph mst prbably mean?
A. Pain.B. Wnder.C. Directin.D. Achievement.
31. Which wuld be the best title fr the passage?
A. What leads t a Life CrisisB. Letting G f Dark Mds
C. Bredm Makes Us HumanD. Anxiety Gives Us Life Gals
D
Many peple assciate their self - wrth with their wrk. The mre successful their career, the better they feel abut themselves. Wrk - related self - esteem is therefre a wrthy ideal t pursue with vigr, right? Well, nt always. Accrding t recent research, in which psychlgists interviewed 370 full - time wrkers ver a perid f three weeks, the reality is a little mre cmplicated. And it invlves negative as well as psitive cnsequences.
It's natural t be drawn twards pleasure and t step away frm pain. In the wrkplace, if that pleasure cmes frm a triumph which bsts ur self - respect, peple will try t repeat that accmplishment. But repeating that accmplishment is ften nt realistic, which can lead t severe negative emtinal cnsequences when it desn't reccur. This frm f mtivatin is widely regarded as a negative type f mtivatin. It can set back ther mre psitive mtivatin types, such as cmpleting a task purely because it's fulfilling r enjyable.
What cnsumes the emplyees instead is a pressing need t feel mighty and sure f themselves. They then take n nly tasks and bjectives which serve that eg - driven need. As a result, t avid feelings f shame and wrthlessness assciated with failure, they extend themselves t such a degree that there's a subsequent adverse effect n their well - being. This internal pressure t succeed at all csts demands a lt f effrt. It exhausts their energy, terminating in disprprtinate levels f damaging sentiment.
Thse negative emtins munt int heightened anxiety, impacting their ability t make the mst f their persnal life. Their desire t avid feeling inferir ends up making them feel inferir when it cmes t their diminished (减弱的) capacity fr friendship and leisure. They end up dissatisfied bth at wrk and utside f it.
But thankfully, fr thse peple frced almst entirely by this specific frm f mtivatin, the news isn't all bad, r bad at all. The study als discvered several psitive utcmes that can actually utweigh the harmful nes. Thugh these types f emplyees are mtivated by the desire t avid negative cnsequences, they are als mtivated by the excitement f pursuing emtinal rewards. This excitement makes
pursuing gals enjyable and stimulates pleasure and pride that wuld result frm success. An effect f the psitive mtivatin is that it neutralizes the existence f negative mtivatin.
Sure, it affects peple's persnal lives t an unhealthy extent, because leisure activities are ften seen as a part f life that must be sacrificed t manage wrk and family demands. Hwever, the way peple feel abut their wrk has less t d with whether they're mtivated by the preservatin f self - esteem but mre with the fact that they're simply mtivated.
32. What d emplyees tend t d in pursuing wrk - related self - esteem?
A. Stretch their sense f shame and wrthlessness.
B. Turn t all means regardless f the cnsequences.
C. Take n tasks well beynd their actual capabilities.
D. Strive t succeed at the expense f their well - being.
33. What d we learn abut peple ver - cncerned with wrk - related self - esteem?
A. They cannt enjy their persnal life t the full.
B. They may ften feel inferir t their clleagues.
C. They are never satisfied with their achievements.
D. They have their wn view f friendship and leisure.
34. What can we learn frm the recent research?
A. The gal f bsting self - esteem can be achieved if ne keeps trying.
B. The emtinal rewards frm gal pursuit are wrth the pains taken.
C. The negative cnsequences f gal pursuit can mstly be avided.
D. The pursuit f gals may turn ut t be enjyable and pleasant.

选项中有两项为多余选项。
Mdern life ffers us endless ways t fill ur days, yet nt all activities bring the same sense f satisfactin. 35 By understanding the different kinds f activities we engage in, we can make mre intentinal chices and create a life that feels bth meaningful and enjyable.
We can divide daily activities int fur categries: Pleasing, Living, Agnizing, and Yielding.
Pleasing activities are lw - effrt, high - reward mments. They require little planning r time — like taking a walk in nature, listening t a favrite playlist, r calling a friend just t say hell. 36 In reality, the mst restrative experiences ften cme frm these smaller, everyday pleasures.
37 They may feel challenging at first, but they match yur values and leave yu with a strng sense f meaning. This culd be learning a new skill r stepping ut f yur cmfrt zne by cmpleting a demanding prject. Such experiences take mre effrt than Pleasing activities, but they make yu feel mre alive and are essential fr persnal grwth.
In cntrast t these fulfilling experiences, Agnizing activities are thse yu feel bliged t d but that drain (榨干) yur energy and bring little enjyment. They can include unpleasant tasks, self - impsed bligatins, r chres yu wuld avid if given the chice. 38 The gal is nt t remve all Agnizing activities but t imprve hw yu apprach them, making them less draining r mre purpseful.
Yielding activities demand little effrt but als ffer little satisfactin. These include mindless scrlling thrugh scial media, watching medicre entertainment, r repeatedly checking yur inbx withut urgency. In small dses (剂量), such activities can be harmless ways t relax. 39
Once yu've reflected n hw yu spend yur time, aim fr ne small shift each day. Chse a Pleasing r Living activity yu want t d mre — perhaps a shrt walk, trying smething new, r wrking n a prject aligned with yur values. Gradually replace mments that leave yu drained r distracted with thse that make yu feel engaged and present.
A. Living activities are the activities that stretch yu beynd yur limits.
B. The benefits f these activities are ften immediate but rarely last lng.
C. Sme lift us instantly, thers challenge us, while sme tire us ut unnticed.
D. These simple jys are ften verlked as peple believe fun must invlve a big event.
E. Unlike Pleasing activities, Living activities are the tasks that demand yur full attentin.
F. But ver time, they can replace meaningful experiences and distract yu frm true desires.
G. While sme are unavidable, many turn ut t be ptinal when yu examine them hnestly.

第一节（共 4 小题；第 40、41 题各 2 分，第 42 题 3 分，第 43 题 5 分，共 12 分）
阅读下面短文，根据题目要求用英文回答问题。请在答题卡指定区域作答。
The last thing I wanted t hear when my gvernment - spnsred schlarship was withdrawn during my final year f cllege was: "Things are wrking ut fr yur wn gd. Just give them sme time." Thse wrds just stirred a lt f anger in me.
Then I read the stry f the Chinese bamb farmer, which gave me a different view n life. The seed f the Chinese bamb is planted in the grund like every seed. It is watered, and fed with nutrients daily, but it shws n immediate physical respnse and desn't appear t grw. The farmer cntinues t water and feed the seed in year ne, year tw, and year three. N grwth is seen until the furth year, when the seed finally breaks thrugh the grund. Then, in the space f just five weeks, it grws ninety feet tall. The Chinese bamb grws t its full capacity within 5 years.
Despite nt seeing an immediate result, the farmer had trust in what he was ding. He cntinued t water and feed the plant fr fur years, because he believed that if he played his wn rle and did all that a farmer was suppsed t d, then he wuld be given his reward at the right time. That trust and patience is what kept the farmer persistently feeding his seed fr fur years befre enjying the reward in the end.
Life is nt always straightfrward. Mst ften, it's nt a matter f 5 + 5 = 10 (Sum 1).
Life can be mre like 2 + 1 + 2 + 0 + 0 + 0 + 1 + 2 + 0 + 0 + 1 + 1 = 10 (Sum 2).
Bth sums lead t the same result, but thrugh quite different paths and prcesses. T be mature is t accept that things might lk rugh right nw but the stry can still have a great ending.
We might live in a micrwave generatin where everything seems t happen instantly; but many things still bey the laws f nature. Just ding what yu are suppsed t be ding, having patience like the Chinese bamb farmer, and trusting that things will wrk ut fr yu can help yu get thrugh the tughest times.
40. What happened t the authr in the final year f cllege?
41. Hw des the Chinese bamb grw in the furth year?
42. Please decide which part is false in the fllwing statement, then underline it and explain why.
T vercme difficulties, we need t trust that things will wrk ut and simply wait patiently fr the great ending t cme.
43. Which is yur life mre like, Sum 1 r Sum 2? Explain why. (abut 40 wrds)
