Hallween candy culd be in fr a Califrnia big change. State lawmakers last mnth passed the Califrnia Fd Safety Act, which bans fur materials fund in ppular snacks and packaged fds - including candy crm and ther Hallween treats. Set t take effect in 2027, the ban will lead candy and fd prducers t change their frmulas fr prducts sld bth in Califrnia and elsewhere arund the cuntry.
The law bans the prductin and sale f sme materials, which are used in prcessed fds including kinds f instant ptates and sdas, as well as candies. The additives (添加剂) have been linked t increased risks f cancer and nervus system prblems, accrding t the Envirnmental Wrking Grup, which started the act, and are already banned in many ther cuntries.
Fd prducers and their lbbyists (说客) ppsed the law, arguing the cnclusin that the fur additives are unhealthy shuld be made by the Fd and Drug Administratin (FDA). They thught that evaluating the safety f fd materials and additives shuld rely n the scientific accuracy f the FDA. But fd safety advcates say the FDA has mved far t slwly in regulating fd chemicals. It’s unacceptable that the U.S. is s far behind the rest f the wrld when it cmes t fd safety.
Califrnia’s act made headlines this year as a “Skittles (彩虹糖) ban” that wuld wipe ppular candies ff Califrnia shelves. But supprters f the act said the intentin is simply t require changes in the materials, as has already happened in Eurpe. Perhaps the mst standing-ut material n Califrnia’s banned list is red dye N. 3. It is allwed nly in candied and ccktail cherries in the Eurpean Unin but mre than 3,000 prducts cntain the chemical in the U. S. The list includes items like frsted pretzels and scres f brand-name candies such as Peeps and Pez. It als includes items like fruit ccktail cups, prtein drinks, and ygurts.
8. Hw will Hallween candy in Califrnia change?
A It will change its recipes.B. It will transfrm its shapes.
C. It will mve ut f Califrnia.D. It will disappear cmpletely.
9. What idea d fd prducers have against the act?
A. FDA’s cnclusin n the materials is wrng.
B. Fur materials are allwed all ver the wrld.
C. The materials’ safety needs t be reassessed.
D. FDA mves t fast in regulating fd chemicals.
10. What can we infer abut the act supprters’ request abut Skittles?
A. They demand a cmplete ban n Skittles.
B. They wish the “Skittles ban” t be headlines.
C. They want t apply Eurpean plicies t Skittles.
D. They hpe mre red dye N. 3 is used in Skittles.
11. What is the text mainly abut?
A. Califrnia candy ban.B. Fd safety in Califrnia.
C. The respnsibility f FDA.D. Change f Hallween Candy.

Recently, after I gave a virtual presentatin n my bk Indistractable, a listener wrte smething in the Zm chat that drve me crazy, “This is great but wuldn’t wrk fr me. I’m a Gemini (双子星座的人).”
Irnically, the Zm listener is right. If she thinks she’s incapable, she’ll prve it crrect — whether it has anything t d with the stars and mn r nt. Her inflexible self-identificatin denies her the chance t imprve her life. It’s incredibly self-limiting.
That’s why we shuld stp defining urselves as fixed identities and nuns, and instead start describing urselves using verbs.
Wrds are pwerful. Linguistic research shws that language shapes peple and culture; it can als give us insight int urselves and ur behavir. In a well-knwn study, researchers Rbert Rsenthal and Lenre Jacbsen had all students in the same elementary schl take a standard IQ test. Then they randmly selected a grup f students, regardless f their test results, and tld teachers the grup wuld shw “dramatic intellectual grwth”. Eight mnths later, thse students scred significantly higher n an IQ test. The study cncluded that teachers’ psitive perceptin f students crrelated t thse students’ high perfrmance n intellectual and academic tests. The labels the children received became a srt f self-fulfilling prphecy (预言).
That’s because language shapes expectatins, which shape ur reality. If we have experiences that lead us t label urselves with specific nuns during ur life, then we are likely t stick with thse labels and the behavirs that g with them.
Using verbs t identify urselves is an effective methd fr releasing “trapped prirs”—a term in psychlgy fr a perceptin f reality that’s affected r trapped by past experiences. Verbs are actin wrds well suited t describing shrt-lived behavirs that can and d change. They dn’t lay claim t ur entire identity, but they acknwledge that we are peple first and fremst, nt whatever a singular nun may say we are. S, instead f saying, “I am a prcrastinatr (拖拉者)”, yu shuld say, “I am a persn wh ften prcrastinates.”
By fcusing n ur behavirs, nt fixed characteristics, we can release harmful perceptins f urselves that hld us back frm trying methds that might imprve ur lives — like thse that can help us achieve the critical skill f being indistractable.
12. What des the authr want t shw thrugh the example f the Zm listener?
A. The cncept f flexible self-identificatin.
B. His cnfusin abut the way t self-identify.
C His understanding f prper self-identificatin.
D. The negative effects f using nuns t define neself.
13. What des the well-knwn study imply?
A. Self-fulfilling prphecies change ver time.
B Encuragement prmtes students’ imprvement.
C. Language usage will have an impact n teaching.
D. IQ has little t d with students’ academic perfrmance.
14. Hw are teachers expected t evaluate students?
A. By highlighting their behavirs.
B. By fcusing n their advantages.
C. By analyzing their typical characteristics.
D. By assessing their academic perfrmance.
15. Which can be the best title fr the text?
A. Nuns are mre pwerful than verbs
B. Yur wrds can determine yur future
C. Hw we define urselves really cunts
D. Our ptin f wrds reflects ur identity

Beautiful Birthmarks: The Pwer f Acceptance
Whenever yu hear the wrd “birthmark (胎记)”, yu prbably think f ne f thse black r brwn spts yu have smewhere n yur bdy. Hwever, fr me, it’s cmpletely different — I have them bth n my lips and inside my muth, which make them quite visible and, t me, ugly. When

In pictures, I used t hide my birthmarks by pursing (噘起) my lips, s I wuld nt have t deal with peple’s questins. As I was grwing up, the situatin didn’t get any better. In the schl, my classmates wuld always tease me, making me feel hurt and helpless. In sciety, I ften encuntered individuals wh wuld inquire abut my birthmarks even befre they knew my name.
Such experiences left me feeling disheartened. I felt like peple judged me by my appearance withut cnsidering my persnality.
My birthmarks are caused by a genetic cnditin frm my mm’s side f the family. My mm’s mm has birthmarks n her lips, and my mm’s uncle and my uncle have sme n their bdies. I used t try t cver them up with makeup, but it never lked gd. I even cnsulted a dctr, wanting t have surgery t remve them. But when imagining the prcess, I wuld get nervus and eventually give up.
Whenever I cried t my mm abut them, she wuld always cmfrt me and say, “Learn t accept them and see them as beautiful birthmarks.” Hwever, it wasn’t easy fr me t accept my wn birthmarks. Every time I shwed my birthmarks, peple wuld lk at me with strange eyes. I began t regret why I had given up n the surgery and chsen t accept my birthmarks.

Recently, after I gave a virtual presentatin n my bk Indistractable, a listener wrte smething in the Zm chat that drve me crazy, “This is great but wuldn’t wrk fr me. I’m a Gemini (双子星座的人).”
Irnically, the Zm listener is right. If she thinks she’s incapable, she’ll prve it crrect — whether it has anything t d with the stars and mn r nt. Her inflexible self-identificatin denies her the chance t imprve her life. It’s incredibly self-limiting.
That’s why we shuld stp defining urselves as fixed identities and nuns, and instead start describing urselves using verbs.
Wrds are pwerful. Linguistic research shws that language shapes peple and culture; it can als give us insight int urselves and ur behavir. In a well-knwn study, researchers Rbert Rsenthal and Lenre Jacbsen had all students in the same elementary schl take a standard IQ test. Then they randmly selected a grup f students, regardless f their test results, and tld teachers the grup wuld shw “dramatic intellectual grwth”. Eight mnths later, thse students scred significantly higher n an IQ test. The study cncluded that teachers’ psitive perceptin f students crrelated t thse students’ high perfrmance n intellectual and academic tests. The labels the children received became a srt f self-fulfilling prphecy (预言).
That’s because language shapes expectatins, which shape ur reality. If we have experiences that lead us t label urselves with specific nuns during ur life, then we are likely t stick with thse labels and the behavirs that g with them.
Using verbs t identify urselves is an effective methd fr releasing “trapped prirs”—a term in psychlgy fr a perceptin f reality that’s affected r trapped by past experiences. Verbs are actin wrds well suited t describing shrt-lived behavirs that can and d change. They dn’t lay claim t ur entire identity, but they acknwledge that we are peple first and fremst, nt whatever a singular nun may say we are. S, instead f saying, “I am a prcrastinatr (拖拉者)”, yu shuld say, “I am a persn wh ften prcrastinates.”
By fcusing n ur behavirs, nt fixed characteristics, we can release harmful perceptins f urselves that hld us back frm trying methds that might imprve ur lives — like thse that can help us achieve the critical skill f being indistractable.
12. What des the authr want t shw thrugh the example f the Zm listener?
A. The cncept f flexible self-identificatin.
B. His cnfusin abut the way t self-identify.
C. His understanding f prper self-identificatin.
D. The negative effects f using nuns t define neself.
13. What des the well-knwn study imply?
A. Self-fulfilling prphecies change ver time.
B. Encuragement prmtes students’ imprvement.
C. Language usage will have an impact n teaching.
D. IQ has little t d with students’ academic perfrmance.
14. Hw are teachers expected t evaluate students?
A. By highlighting their behavirs.
B. By fcusing n their advantages.
C. By analyzing their typical characteristics.
D. By assessing their academic perfrmance.
15. Which can be the best title fr the text?
A. Nuns are mre pwerful than verbs
B. Yur wrds can determine yur future
C. Hw we define urselves really cunts
D. Our ptin f wrds reflects ur identity

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讨论了人们如何定义自己，以及为何应该避免使用固定的名词来描述自己，而应该使用动词来关注自己的行为和变化。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第二段“Irnically, the Zm listener is right. If she thinks she’s incapable, she’ll prve it crrect — whether it has anything t d with the stars and mn r nt. Her inflexible self-identificatin denies her the chance t imprve her life. It’s incredibly self-limiting.(讽刺的是，Zm的听众是对的。如果她认为自己无能为力，她会证明自己是对的——不管这是否与星星和月亮有关。她僵化的自我认同剥夺了她改善生活的机会。这是难以置信的自我限制)”可知，作者使用了Zm听众将自己定义为双子座并认为这阻止了她实施书中策略的例子。这显示了使用固定的名词或身份来定义自己的负面影响，与使用动词来描述自己的行为和改变的可能性相对立。作者认为，这样的自我定义可能是自我限制的，并阻止人们尝试可能改善他们生活的方法。故选D。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第四段“In a well-knwn study, researchers Rbert Rsenthal and Lenre Jacbsen had all students in the same elementary schl take a standard IQ test. Then they randmly selected a grup f students, regardless f their test results, and tld teachers the grup wuld shw “dramatic intellectual grwth”. Eight mnths later, thse students scred significantly higher n an IQ test. The study cncluded that teachers’ psitive perceptin f students crrelated t thse students’ high perfrmance n intellectual and academic tests. The labels the children received became a srt f self-fulfilling prphecy (预言).(在一项著名的研究中，研究人员Rbert Rsenthal和Lenre Jacbsen对同一所小学的所有学生进行了标准的智商测试。然后，他们随机选择了一组学生，不管他们的考试成绩如何，并告诉老师这组学生将表现出“戏剧性的智力增长”。八个月后，这些学生在智商测试中的得分显著提高。该研究得出结论，教师对学生的积极看法与学生在智力和学业测试中的优异表现有关。孩子们收到的标签成为一种自我实现的预言)”可知，这项研究表明教师的鼓励促进了学生的进步。故选B。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“By fcusing n ur behavirs, nt fixed characteristics, we can release harmful perceptins f urselves that hld us back frm trying methds that might imprve ur lives — like thse that can help us achieve the critical skill f being indistractable.(通过关注我们的行为，而不是固定的特征，我们可以释放对自己的有害看法，这些看法会阻止我们尝试可能改善我们生活的方法——比如那些可以帮助我们获得注意力不分散的关键技能的方法)”可知，文章认为通过关注我们的行为而不是固定的特征，我们可以摆脱那些阻碍我们尝试可能改善生活的方法的有害自我认知。这里强调的是行为的重要性，因为行为是短暂的、可以改变的，并且更能反映我们的努力和进步。将这个观点应用到教育领域，老师们被期望通过关注学生的行为来评价他们，因为这些行为更能准确地反映学生的学习态度和进步情况。故选A。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第三段“That’s why we shuld stp defining urselves as fixed identities and nuns, and instead start describing urselves using verbs.(这就是为什么我们不应该把自己定义为固定的身份和名词，而应该开始用动词来描述自己)”以及全文内容可知，整篇文本主要讨论了我们是如何定义自己的，以及这种定义如何影响我们的行为和现实。文章通过Zm听众的例子、Rbert Rsenthal和Lenre Jacbsen的研究，以及使用动词和名词来描述自己的对比，强调了自我定义的重要性。它指出，使用动词来描述我们的行为而不是用名词来定义我们的身份，可以帮助我们摆脱过去的限制，尝试新的方法，并改善我们的生活。故选C。

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了作者对于毕业生就业的一些看法。
【16题详解】
根据上文“Recently, I sat in a lecture hall with a cuple f hundred final-year undergraduate students.(最近，我和几百名即将毕业的本科生坐在一个讲堂里)”以及后文“When I was abut t graduate, the future seemed unclear. I didn’t have a place n a cmpany graduate prgramme like many f my classmates. Decades n, I realized that what seemed like bvius career ladders weren’t s simple.(当我即将毕业时，未来似乎不明朗。我没有像我的许多同学那样参加公司的研究生项目。几十年过去了，我意识到看似显而易见的职业阶梯并没有那么简单)”可知，后文提到了作者毕业时感到未来不明朗，推测作者看到其他学生，也想到了自己当时的情况。故B选项“环顾四周，我想到了自己在他们这个年纪时的不确定”符合语境，故选B。
【17题详解】
根据后文“with an average f 86 applicatins fr every pening(平均每个职位有86人申请)”可知，后文提到了平均每个职位有86人申请，说明竞争很激烈，故A选项“尽管需求强劲，但每个职位都竞争激烈”符合语境，故选A。
【18题详解】
根据后文“The Chartered Institutin f Persnnel and Develpment’s gd wrk survey fund that nly 35% f peple said their jb ffered gd pprtunities fr career advancement.(英国特许人事与发展协会的“好工作”调查发现，只有35%的人说他们的工作提供了良好的职业发展机会)”可知，后文的调查表明大部分人的工作没有提供良好的职业发展机会。故E选项“现在这一代的毕业生一旦找到工作，只有一部分人能找到晋升的机会”符合语境，故选E。
【19题详解】
根据上文“There are a few reasns why peple find it difficult t advance n the career ladder. One f them many peple struggle is that career ladders are becming smaller. As large rganizatins have slimmed dwn, s have the internal paths fr prmtin.(人们很难在职业阶梯上取得进步有以下几个原因。许多人纠结的一个问题是，职业阶梯越来越小。随着大型机构的瘦身，内部晋升渠道也在缩减)”可知，本句承接上文，说明大型机构的瘦身，内部晋升渠道也在缩减背后的意义。故F选项“这意味着职业已经被工作所取代，而工作也越来越多地被任务所取代”符合语境，故选F。
【20题详解】
根据上文“Anther issue is that increasing numbers f peple just aren’t interested in climbing the ladder. The recent iteratin f the wrld values survey fund millennials and generatin Z placed less value n wrk than they used t. A decade ag, 41% f millennials thught wrk shuld cme first while that number is 14% tday.(另一个问题是，越来越多的人对往上爬不感兴趣。最近的世界价值观调查发现，千禧一代和Z一代不像过去那样重视工作。十年前，41%的千禧一代认为工作应该放在第一位，而今天这一比例为14%)”可知，上文提到“认为工作应该放在第一位”的看法大幅降低，说明不再认为工作是第一位的，故C选项“我们中的许多人似乎不再认为自己是由工作来定义的”符合语境，故选C。

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。介绍了位于泰国首都曼谷的一个知名夜市：Train Night Market Ratchada（拉差达火车夜市）。
【36题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：1250多个小摊照亮了泰国首都的中心，形成了色彩斑斓的景象。分析句子结构，空白处在句子中作状语，使用非谓语动词，因空白处表示的是一个自然而然的结果，使用现在分词，故填prviding。
【37题详解】
考查被动语态。句意：为曼谷夜市成千上万的交易者设计的摊位，其本身已经成为一处景点。分析句子结构，这是一个包含定语从句的复合句，空白处在定语从句中作谓语，因与从句主语the shelter之间为被动关系，使用被动语态，因句子表示的是一个客观情况，谓语动词使用一般现在时的被动语态，故填is designed。
【38题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：同上。分析句子结构，空白处在句子中作状语表示目的，使用动词不定式，故填t sell。

【41题详解】

【42题详解】

考查连词。句意：这里也有很多普通的市场商品出售，比如便宜的衣服、鞋子、包包和其他时尚商品。根据上文“cheap clthes, shes, bags(便宜的衣服、鞋子、包包)”以及下文“ther fashin items(其他时尚商品)”可知上下文之间为并列关系，使用表示并列关系的连词，故填and。
【45题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：但最重要的是，这里是街头美食的最佳场所之一，露天酒吧经常上演现场音乐。分析句子结构，空白处在句子中作定语，使用非谓语动词，因与其逻辑主语music之间为逻辑上的动宾关系，使用过去分词，故填perfrmed。

Beautiful Birthmarks: The Pwer f Acceptance
Whenever yu hear the wrd “birthmark (胎记)” yu prbably think f ne f thse black r brwn spts yu have smewhere n yur bdy. Hwever, fr me, it’s cmpletely different — I have them bth n my lips and inside my muth, which make them quite visible and, t me, ugly. When
I was yung, these birthmarks kept making me feel extremely awkward and self-cnscius (难为情的). As these birthmarks always drew a lt f attentin, peple ften asked me, “What are thse black marks n yur lips?” When I tld peple that they were birthmarks, they usually said, “Hw strange！”
In pictures, I used t hide my birthmarks by pursing (噘起) my lips, s I wuld nt have t deal with peple’s questins. As I was grwing up, the situatin didn’t get any better. In the schl, my classmates wuld always tease me, making me feel hurt and helpless. In sciety, I ften encuntered individuals wh wuld inquire abut my birthmarks even befre they knew my name.
Such experiences left me feeling disheartened. I felt like peple judged me by my appearance withut cnsidering my persnality.
My birthmarks are caused by a genetic cnditin frm my mm’s side f the family. My mm’s mm has birthmarks n her lips, and my mm’s uncle and my uncle have sme n their bdies. I used t try t cver them up with makeup, but it never lked gd. I even cnsulted a dctr, wanting t have surgery t remve them. But when imagining the prcess, I wuld get nervus and eventually give up.
Whenever I cried t my mm abut them, she wuld always cmfrt me and say, “Learn t accept them and see them as beautiful birthmarks.” Hwever, it wasn’t easy fr me t accept my wn birthmarks. Every time I shwed my birthmarks, peple wuld lk at me with strange eyes. I began t regret why I had given up n the surgery and chsen t accept my birthmarks.

Depressed and upset, I pured ut all my recent experiences t him. “Yu shuld be cnfident and prud f yur birthmarks!” he exclaimed, “it’s a tugh pill t swallw, but it’s necessary medicine.” Lking at me straight in the eyes, He tld me that he had als struggled t accept his birthmark, but nw he saw it as a unique part f himself that made him stand ut. “Just remember, what thers see is what yu want them t see.” His wrds struck a chrd with me, and I realized that I had been t fcused n the negative aspects f my birthmarks.

Gradually, I learned t accept and lve myself and I nticed that peple arund me began t appreciate and accept me as well. I n lnger felt self-cnscius abut them. Instead, I felt empwered by them.

【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，这篇文章主要讲述了一个人对自己身上的胎记的困扰和接受过程。作者从小就因为嘴唇和口腔内的胎记而感到自我意识强烈，经常遭受他人的奇异目光和嘲笑，导致他感到困惑和无助。他曾试图隐藏这些胎记，甚至想通过手术来移除它们，但最终还是选择了接受它们。最后，作者通过母亲的鼓励，学会了接受自己的胎记，并将它们视为美丽的独特标记，而不是缺陷。
【详解】1.段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容“有一天，我遇到了我的表弟，他的手臂上也有一块很大的胎记”可知，第一段可描写作者倾诉了自己的经历，表弟进行了心理疏导，让作者对表弟的话有了共鸣。
②由第二段首句内容“从那时起，当我遇到人时，我开始改变自己”可知，第二段可描写作者开始接受自己的胎记，并且逐渐变得自信。
