This summer, I tried a rather uncnventinal methd t encurage my 12-year-ld daughter t absrb herself in the wrld f bks—I ffered her $100 t read ne. Admittedly, it was brn ut f sheer desperatin; never had I imagined turning t bribery. Hwever, the utcme was unexpectedly satisfactry, and as a parent f a frmerly resistant reader, I fund this wasn’t s bad after all.
My daughter is undubtedly intelligent, but prir t this experiment, she had never vluntarily cmpleted a chapter f a bk fr her wn enjyment. Indeed, she fulfilled her reading assignments fr schl, yet her leisure time was revlving (围绕) arund her phne — scial media, vides, and games. Bks, t her, felt like a thing f the past. Recalling the jy f reading frm my wn childhd, I was eager t pass this lve fr bks n t my daughter. Hwever, the mre I pushed, the mre she dug her heels in. The turning pint came when I encuntered a jaw-drpping statistic: nearly 30% f 13-year-lds “never r hardly ever” read fr pleasure, which struck a chrd with me.
That was when I ffered $100 fr her t engage with a bk. She hesitated but agreed. T my astnishment, she selected a title that wuldn’t have crssed my mind, and diligently began turning the pages. Chapter by chapter, she gt hked. It wasn’t the bk I wuld have chsen, but it didn’t matter. She was n a rll. What fllwed was even mre surprising. The bribe faded, but her newfund interest in reading persisted. Slwly, she turned int a bkwrm ging thrugh pages with endless passin. My desperate try wasn’t a perfect slutin, but it left a spark f habit and curisity. The $100 n lnger seemed like an expense; it transfrmed int a wrthwhile investment.
Reflecting n this entire episde, I’ve gained an invaluable lessn. Smetimes, as a parent, yu can’t always expect the mst straightfrward r cnventinal apprach t wrk. While I have mixed feelings abut my methd, I am kind f prud f the utcme. And the $100? Smetimes wrth every penny.
4. What des the underlined wrd “bribery” mst likely mean in the first paragraph?
A. Pressing t fllw.B. Making up fr the lss.
C. Paying t persuade.D. Giving up fr the benefit.
5. What pushed the authr t make a determined effrt t change her daughter?
A. Learning data n teen’s reading habits.
B. Feeling stressed frm schl assignments.
C. Wrrying ver her daughter’s screen time.
D. Recalling her childhd reading experience.
6. What can we learn abut the bk the daughter picked?
A. It was centred n diligence.
B. It was nt meant fr students.
C. It was suggested by the authr.
D. It was fascinating t the daughter.
7. What des the authr think f her methd?

As a writer specializing in psychlgy and human cgnitin (认知) ,I’ve explred cuntless tricks t bst brainpwer. Yet, few have prven as surprisingly effective as the ancient practice f illeism. Pliticians ften use this device t sund mre bjective, as Julius Caesar did in his accunt f the Gallic War, writing “Caesar avenged (为……报仇) the public” instead f “I avenged the public.” Simply put, illeism is the act f referring t neself in the third persn instead f the first persn.
Talking abut yurself this way might sund verly frmal r unusual t mdern ears, but science says it wrks wnders. When tugh decisins cme kncking, speaking in the third persn can help yu stay calm, cutting thrugh thse messy emtins that ften clud ur judgment. It’s like giving yur brain a little space t see the big picture.
Research by Igr Grssmann at the University f Waterl shws that we’re naturally better at being “wise” when dealing with ther peple’s prblems than ur wn. This is knwn as Slmn’s Paradx (悖论), which explains why giving yur best friend advice is a breeze (微风), but slving yur wn is a drama.
Can illeism help slve this paradx? Grssmann’s research suggests it can. By shifting t the third persn, we step back frm ur negative emtins and gain anther perspective. Studies shw that peple wh tried this displayed mre mdesty — basically, they made clearer decisins and leveled up their wisdm game. One study even fund that participants wh jurnaled in the third persn fr a mnth started seeing everyday situatins in a whle new light. They als reprted feeling less stressed and mre psitive.
I’ve tried it myself, and hnestly, it wrks! Whether it’s challenging wrk decisins, family dilemmas, r handling friendships, this little mental shift has helped me see things mre clearly and act mre thughtfully. Sure, it might sund a little dd at first, but it’s incredibly effective. If yu’ re lking fr a fun, easy way t clear yur head, why nt give it a sht? Wh knws— yu might just discver yur inner Caesar.
8. Why is Julius Caesar’s example cited in the first paragraph?
A. T reveal the surce f illeism.
B. T prve the effectiveness f illeism.
C. T shw the intelligence f pliticians.
D. T explain the develpment f a language.
9. Which f the fllwing sayings best reflects Slmn’s Paradx?
A. Out f sight, ut f mind.
B. Actins speak luder than wrds.
C. A prblem shared is a prblem halved.
D. Yu can’t read the label frm inside the jar.
10. Hw des illeism aid decisin-making?
A. Peple can accept thers’ advice with mdesty.
B. Peple can adjust persnal habits t handle issues.
C. Peple can perfect their judgment by increasing wisdm.
D. Peple can gain a fresh perspective with psitive emtins.
11. Where is this text prbably taken frm?
A. A psychlgy blg.B. A histrical bigraphy.
C. A self-help guide.D. A scientific jurnal.
D
Accrding t a study published in Nature, even after cutting significant weight, yur fat cells might be hanging n t the “besity (肥胖) memry”, which culd explain why keeping the weight ff can feel like an uphill battle.
The issue lies in changes t the epigenme — a set f chemical tags n DNA and prteins that cntrl gene activity. Fr fat cells, these changes can nt nly disturb nrmal functins like energy strage and hrmne (荷尔蒙) regulatin, but als send wrng signals t the parts f brain that regulate hunger and metablism (新陈代谢).
Researchers recently uncvered the stubbrn tendency in humans. When analyzing fat tissue (组织) frm weight-lss individuals and a cntrl grup with n histry f besity, they fund a surprising pattern: Certain genes were much mre active in the weight-lss grup. As ne participant jked, “It’s like my fat cells are whispering, ‘Hey, let’s stck up fr winter!’” Anther admitted, “I can’t stp thinking abut fd — I desire high-calrie snacks all the time!” These individuals nt nly experience heightened hunger and an intense appetite, but als face ametablic reality where their bdies are mre likely t stre fd as fat rather than burn it. As ne frustrated dieter humrusly remarked, “It feels like my bdy treats every meal like a nce-in-a-lifetime feast!”
While these findings shed light n the “memry” f besity, scientists cautin that the study des nt prve that epigenetic changes directly cause weight regain. Hyun Chel Rh, a metablism expert, stressed that “mre research is needed t pin dwn the exact rle f these changes.”
Fr thse already n a weight-lss jurney, staying slim isn’t an impssible dream — it’s achievable, thugh it des take effrt. Laura Hinte, a bilgist at the Swiss Federal Institute f Technlgy, wants yu t knw: “Yur fat cells might have a great memry, but yu can utsmart them. Lng-term success cmes frm building habits that stick — especially in diet and exercise.” Even s, the mst effective way t beat besity is t stp it befre it starts —addressing it befre it becmes a challenge.
12. What des the “besity memry” mean?
A. Peple’s weight is cntrlled by brain.
B. Peple can’t frget the verweight state.
C. Peple can never change the ld habits related t besity.
D. Peple have a tendency t g back t their previus weight.
13. What has researchers fund in the weight-lss grup?
A. Their genes becme much less active.
B. They tend t cherish fd and try nt t waste it.
C. They have increased appetite and slwer metablism.
D. Their weight is mre likely t bunce back in winter.
14. What des the last paragraph emphasize abut beating besity?
A. Instant recvery.B. Early preventin.
C. Challenging gals.D. Effrtless maintenance.
15. Which f the fllwing is the best title fr the text?
A. Bdy shape is determined by genes
B. The hidden secret f epigenetic changes
C. Memry f fat cells: The reasn fr easy weight regain
D. Fat cells never change: Why lsing weight is impssible
