第三部分 阅读（共两节，满分40分）
第一节 阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）
阅读下列短文，从每小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Adlescence (青春期) is ften filled with difficult mments that we all try t avid: failing an imprtant exam, fighting with clse friends, feeling cnfused abut the future, r struggling (挣扎) t fit in with peers. These uncmfrtable experiences are what we call “grwing pains”, and almst every teenager wishes t stay away frm them. Hwever, sme latest scientific studies have clearly shwn that these struggles are nt useless r harmful—they are actually necessary fr teenagers’ mental and emtinal develpment.
A 2021 research carried ut by scientists at the University f Califrnia, Ls Angeles (UCLA) fcused n hw the human brain reacts t mistakes. In the study, researchers used EEG, a cmmn tl t test brain activity, t check and cmpare the brain signals f teenagers and adults when they made errrs (错误) in simple tasks. The results were surprising: teenagers prduce a much strnger errr-related negativity (ERN), a special brain signal that directly drives peple t learn frm their failures. This finding prves that teenage brains are far mre plastic than adult brains, meaning they can reshape and rerganize themselves mre effectively after experiencing prblems.
Anther valuable study frm the University f Cambridge further supprts this idea. It shws that adlescent brains are at their highest develpmental pint fr learning frm challenges and difficulties. When teenagers step ut f their cmfrt znes, such as giving a public speech, trying a new sprt, r wrking ut a hard academic prblem, their brains actively build new neural pathways (神经通路). These pathways lay a strng base fr key adult skills, including critical thinking, prblem-slving, emtinal strength and creativity.
Psychlgists name this prcess “grwth thrugh struggle”. A 2019 lng-term study fllwed 1,500 teenagers fr five cntinuus years. It fund that thse wh bravely faced and vercame nt-t-difficult challenges in daily life develped higher self-cnfidence, better schl achievement and strnger scial skills when they reached adulthd. Hwever, teenagers wh always avided any struggles shwed much slwer mental and emtinal grwth.
Grwing pains may bring shrt-term sadness r disappintment, but they are the natural way fr teenage brains t becme strnger and develp fully. Every small challenge in grwth is a valuable chance t becme a wiser and mre able persn.

A．easy fr teenagers t avidB．helpful fr yung peple’s grwth

C．Grwing Pains: Part f Teenage DevelpmentD．Grwing Pains: Ways t Slve Prblems
【答案】36．B 37．B 38．C
【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了青春期的“成长的烦恼”并非无用，而是青少年心智与情感发展的必要部分，并结合科学研究说明了其对大脑发育的积极作用。
【详解】36．第一段提到“sme latest scientific studies have clearly shwn that these struggles are nt useless r harmful—they are actually necessary fr teenagers’ mental and emtinal develpment.”，点明成长的烦恼对青少年的心智与情感的成长是有益的。
37．第二段提到“meaning they can reshape and rerganize themselves mre effectively after experiencing prblems.”，说明青少年的大脑能在经历问题后更有效地重塑和重组自身，由此可推断“plastic”在这里表示“可塑造的、能提升的”，对应选项B“Able t imprve”。
38．全文围绕“成长的烦恼是青少年发展的必要部分”展开，通过多项科学研究说明它对大脑发育、能力培养的积极意义，因此最佳标题是选项C“Grwing Pains: Part f Teenage Develpment”。

We all make mistakes in ur daily lives. Fr example, we may break a classmate’s favurite cup by accident. Or we may say smething implite when arguing with a friend. In such situatins, it’s imprtant t knw hw t say srry and repair the relatinship in time. But hw d yu make sure yur aplgy (道歉) sunds sincere (真诚的)? Well, a recent finding shws that peple are mre willing t accept aplgies using mre wrds.
Nt lng ag, Shiri Lev-Ari, a prfessr frm the University f Lndn, did tw studies abut making aplgies. In the first ne, she searched fr 50 aplgetic psts nline. Then she cmpared these psts t nrmal psts written by the same peple. She fund that their aplgetic psts were far lnger than the nrmal nes. Hwever, the wrds used in aplgies were as cmmn as thse in the ther psts. They weren’t unusual r difficult t understand.
In the secnd study, Lev-Ari asked 49 vlunteers t read three different versins (说法) f the same aplgetic sentence. The three versins had the same meaning, but they differed in length (长度). The vlunteers all agreed the lngest sentence sunded the mst aplgetic. “An aplgy seems t be mre sincere if it takes mre effrt t say it. When yu use mre wrds, it lks like yu’ve put mre thught int the aplgy,” said Lev-Ari.
In future studies, Lev-Ari hpes t find if using big wrds will help. She als wnders if saying srry face-t-face is better than sending an aplgetic message. Fr nw, a sincere aplgy with enugh wrds is a gd way t say srry.
42．Hw des the writer start the text?
A．By asking questins.
B．By using sayings.
C．By giving examples.
D．By ffering numbers.
43．What d we knw abut the tw studies?
A．A prfessr frm a British university did them.
B．They are abut peple’s pinins n aplgies.
C．Fifty vlunteers tk part in the secnd study.

44．What may Lev-Ari agree with?

B．Sentences with fewer wrds are mre aplgetic.
C．Peple shuld use unusual wrds when saying srry.
D．The tw studies have shwn cmpletely different results.

C．Making aplgies - the sner, the better
D．Mre wrds, mre sincerity in “srry”
【答案】42．C 43．A 44．A 45．D
【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了伦敦大学的教授Shiri Lev-Ari关于道歉的两项研究，发现道歉时使用更多的词语会让人感觉更真诚。
【详解】42．原文第一段提到“We all make mistakes in ur daily lives. Fr example, we may break a classmate’s favurite cup by accident. Or we may say smething implite when arguing with a friend.”，作者通过举例生活中常见的犯错场景来引出话题。
43．原文第二段提到“Nt lng ag, Shiri Lev-Ari, a prfessr frm the University f Lndn, did tw studies abut making aplgies.”，伦敦大学属于英国的大学，所以这两项研究是由一位英国大学的教授开展的；第二项研究的志愿者是49人，不是50人；研究的内容是道歉的长度与真诚度的关系，不是人们对道歉的看法；第一项研究也没有表明网上道歉没用。
44．原文第三段提到“An aplgy seems t be mre sincere if it takes mre effrt t say it. When yu use mre wrds, it lks like yu’ve put mre thught int the aplgy”，说明她认为人们最好在道歉中展现出自己的用心和努力，而不是用更少的词、不寻常的词，两项研究的结果也是一致的，并非完全不同。
45．全文围绕“道歉时使用更多的词语会让人感觉更真诚”这一核心观点展开，介绍了相关研究，所以最佳标题是“Mre wrds, mre sincerity in ‘srry’”。
