We sat at a riverside restaurant n the Willamette River, enjying spaghetti and watching Christmas bats pass.
“Isn’t this the best evening ever?” I said, grasping my husband’s hand. We seldm ate ut, and the sight f the
festive bats added a tuch f magic.
Smiling and chatting, we stretched the dinner ut t nearly tw hurs, ending it with shared chclate cake. I
almst danced t get my cat — a black wl ne given t me by my daughter.
I reached fr the nly black cat n the rack (架子) and put it n. Wait, what? It reached belw my ankle, nt
my knee. And I guessed it t be a size 16, nt my 8. Blinking back tears, I left my number with the hstess, sure the

mix-up wuld sn be crrected. But n call came that night, nr the next day. Heartick, I hung the t big cat in
the clset, still waiting.
Mnths later, anther freezing night, my husband and I were getting ready t g t friends fr dinner. I pulled
the cat ff its hanger, pursing my lips abut my lst cat.
“Ww” Penny, an ld friend, exclaimed as sn as we walked in. “Very classic,” said Missy, the hstess. I
arched am eyebrw. “Yu’re kidding. It’s fur sizes t big.” I nearly launched int the whle stry, but their wrds
stpped me. Fr the first time I lked at the cat mre carefully and nticed the fine label. I frwned. Did I need
an attitude adjustment? What if I was psitive instead f negative abut my unplanned acquisitin?
Instead f cmplaining, I asked myself what I needed t d with this cat in rder t enjy it. I had it altered
by a wman frm church free f charge. The fllwing week, the temperature drpped sharply. As I gathered this
altered cat t step int the car, I recalled the cat my daughter gave me, but this ne was nearly as warm — and,
as Missy said, a classic. Nw I wear it with pleasure.

Imagine walking int a rm filled with strangers, yu haven’t spken a wrd. Yu haven’t heard ne either.
Yet smething is already being said. Yu might feel the slight pressure f a lk frm acrss the rm. Yu sense
cmfrt in the way anther persn smiles—nt just with their lips, but with their whle face. Yu knw wh is
cnfident, wh is nervus, wh seems pen, and wh seems clsed. All this happens befre a single wrd is spken.
This isn’t magic. It’s the mind’s secret language. It’s the silent, invisible frce beneath every human

interactin, shaping ur relatinships, influencing ur judgments, and cnnecting us in ways that wrds never culd.
Lng befre yu learned t talk, yu were already a master f silent cmmunicatin. Babies just days ld can
detect eye cntact. They respnd t tne, rhythm and facial expressins. They cry t signal need and smile t build
bnds (联系). N vcabulary is needed.
This is the fundatin f what neurscientists call scial cgnitin—the brain’s ability t understand and
respnd t thers. Our brains are built fr cnnectin. We dn’t just bserve thers: we simulate (模仿) their
actins inside urselves. When yu see smene smile, yur brain activates the same regins that fire when yu
yurself smile. This is the basis f mirrr neurns, a system discvered in the 1990s that helps explain hw we
“feel” what thers feel.
Frm babyhd, we start building a thery f mind. This means understanding that thers have their wn
separate thughts, feelings and intentins. We use this knwledge cnstantly, mstly withut speaking. Yu dn’t
need smene t say, “I’m depressed.” Yu recgnize it in hw they shut a dr firmly r avid meeting yur eyes.
This skill t sense thers—t read their mental state frm their face, psture, gestures, vice tne and even
silences—is the essential fundatin f human cnnectin. It explains ur talent fr strytelling, teamwrk, and
caring. It’s als why misunderstandings can happen s easily.
8. What can we learn abut babies accrding t paragraph 3?
A. They learn wrds quickly. B. They bnd thrugh smiles.
C. They ignre facial expressins. D. They rarely signal needs.
9. Why des the authr mentin “mirrr neurns”?
A. T describe brain diseases. B. T explain sharing thers’ feelings.
C. T argue against scial cgnitin. D. T prve speech’s imprtance.
10. What is paragraph 5 mainly abut?
A. Hw brains prcess language. B. Why peple avid eye cntact.
C. The rle f the thery f mind. D. The discvery f babies’ abilities.
11. What ability is a key functin f the thery f mind?
A. Predicting weather changes. B. Creating cmplex vcabulary.
C. Understanding thers’ intentins. D. Memrizing scientific terms.

by scial media, researchers argued. Viewing mindlessly thrugh attentin-grabbing psts and vides prevents
“prfund (深层的) bredm” that can drive peple n t new passins r skills. Instead, peple find themselves in
a state f “superficial bredm”, which des nt mtivate creative thught.
Dr Timthy Hill, leader f the research team at the University f Bath, said, “The prblem we bserved was
that scial media can ease superficial bredm. But that als cnsumes time and energy, and may prevent peple
prgressing t a state f prfund bredm, where they might discver new passins. Prfund bredm may
sund like a negative cncept but, in fact, it can be intensely psitive if peple are given the chance fr undisturbed
thinking and develpment.
Researchers interviewed 15 peple during the pandemic (流行病), when bredm was mre likely because f
restrictins. Many described being trapped in regularly daily walks and watching televisin, with many turning t
scial media t pass the time. But althugh the participants said that scial media prvided a temprary escape
frm superficial bredm, it als appeared t exacerbate it, leaving them feeling they had wasted their time.
The pandemic was a painful and cnsuming experience fr thusands f less frtunate peple. But there are
stries f thse in lckdwn wh fund new hbbies, careers r directins in life. Switching ff devices culd help
peple reach the state f bredm which pushes them n t new hbbies r achievements.
This research has given us a windw t understand hw the “always-n”, 24/7 culture and devices that
prmise an abundance f infrmatin and entertainment may be fixing ur superficial bredm but are actually
preventing us frm finding mre meaningful things.
12. Why are Walter Benjamin’s wrds mentined?
A. T call fr attentin t the research n bredm.
B. T cmment n strategies t face lneliness.
C T ffer suggestins n cultivating creative thinking.
D. T clarify prblems caused by scial media.
13. Which f the fllwing may Dr Timthy Hill agree with?
A. Prfund bredm is f value.
B. Superficial bredm is unavidable.
C. Scial media shuld be restricted.
D. Undisturbed thinking is hard t achieve.

I sat at the breakfast table with my fur-year-ld sn, Harry, trying t ignre the ache in my stmach. “Mama,
want t play?” “Nt tday, baby.” I shk my head. These days I culd barely get ut f bed. I was still recvering
frm an peratin. I hped fr strength and happiness, but the future seemed s hpeless.
Suddenly, Harry jumped up frm his spt n the kitchen flr. “Bird!” he shuted, rushing t ur curtyard.
Sure enugh, there was a white dve (鸽子) seated in a rubber tree. It sat there fr a few mments, and then flew

away. Strange, I’d never seen ne in ur neighbrhd befre.
When I dragged myself t the kitchen the next mrning, the dve was back. This time it was with a mate
carrying sticks. “Lk, Harry,” I said, pinting t the tree. “They’re ging t make a nest.” The dves flew in and
ut f the curtyard all week, building n tp f the rubber tree.
Harry culd hardly cntain his excitement. Every mrning, he’d run int the kitchen and take his spt by the
sliding glass dr, talking t the birds while they wrked. His happiness was influential. As much as I was sad, I
culdn’t help but lk frward t the dves’ visits t.
Then it all went wrng. The curtyard was safe enugh fr a nest, but the rubber tree’s thin leaves were far
frm stable. One night, a strng wind blew, thrwing the dves’ nest t the grund. I heard the twigs (细枝) break
apart.
I surveyed the damage. Nthing gd ever lasted. I wuldn’t blame the dves if they never came back. But
they returned. And they paid n attentin t the pile f sticks that had nce been their nest. They started again frm
the beginning. Again, thugh, the wind destryed all their hard wrk. The next day, and the next, they started again,
as if nthing had happened.
