It was a September afternn. The air was thick and warm, and by the time my dad and I reached the cve, which we called a swimming palace, my clthes were damp and itchy n my skin. Dad swam nearby a cve, diving int a splash f frnt crawl, heading ut tward the edge f ur narrw bay. Overwhelmed, suddenly, with envy, I did what I hadn’t dne in years: I held my breath and pulled my wn head underwater.
There, suspended beneath the glimmering surface, I remembered it all. My lve f diving, swimming, rivers and lakes. I felt the cld cean’s press n my cheeks and my eyelids, and knew what it was like again: t be free and fully present in my wn skin.
Thugh I’ve always lved the water, I had spent seven years prir t that day staying away frm mments like this ne. I was afraid. Struggling fr a lng time with chrnic acne and unhelpful treatments, and the pressures f teenage girls’ appearance, I had becme entirely reliant n my makeup. I needed ttal cntrl ver hw I lked, and ging swimming meant washing this cntrl away. My bare face and natural appearance were nt smething I identified with. I hated it, deeply, thugh I wished mre than anything that I didn’t.
But thse 10 minutes f cntentment I flated within — the muffled quiet f the underwater wrld — were fuel fr the next chapter f my life. This wuld be my yardstick. Suddenly, it didn’t matter hw I did it. Whether thrugh medicatin r mental attitude, I wuld find a way t have the kind f life that allwed me t dive int the water whenever it called.
That day was the beginning f a slw but determined jurney back t my wn bdy — a slw unlearning f my deep self-cnsciusness. Life didn’t change in a heartbeat: I returned t the shre with all the same fears, but I clthed myself in a new determinatin t change things. I felt the tide turn.
Reflecting n this mment again tday, it seems strange t think that ging bare-faced n an empty beach was such a challenge. But this is exactly the perspective I had nce dreamed f reaching. I d my best never t take fr granted this freedm I have fund. T pay attentin, each time I sink under the surface f the water, embracing that swell f fear and jy and liberatin.
24. The authr avided swimming fr seven years because________.
A. she had n access t the cve.
B. she had t receive treatments.
C. she hated t reapply her makeup.
D. she felt insecure withut makeup.
25. Hw did the authr feel after she returned frm the diving?
A. Hesitant.B. Reslved.C. Prud.D. Jyful.
26. What can we learn frm this passage?
A. Yu can’t judge a bk by its cver.B. Beauty is in the eye f the behlder.
C. Self-acceptance is the greatest gift.D. Nthing is difficult t a willing heart.

Fr decades, scientists hypthesized that cgnitively demanding tasks, such as writing r slving math prblems, require mre energy than easier tasks like scrlling shrt vides n the phne r lking ut f the windw. Hwever, recent research prves the view wrng. Our brains perfrm massively cmplex and metablically cstly cmputatins all day lng. “Whether yu’ re engaged in a cgnitively demanding task at wrk, r yu’ re staring ff int space, yur brain is using rughly the same amunt f energy,” says neurscientist Tdd Braver f Washingtn University in St. Luis.
In fact what feels mre challenging is when a task requires the brain t g against its usual habits. Cgnitively demanding wrk ften requires the crdinatin (协作) f many different brain regins in nvel patterns, while silencing circuits that frequently fire tgether.
Studies have fund that pushing against ur brain’s habits triggers an emtinal respnse, making us feel uncmfrtable. “It’s aversive, and it just feels bad,” says Michael Inzlicht, a psychlgist frm the University f Trnt. But he pints ut that emtinal respnses are subjective: They are interpretatins f sensatins in ur bdies and brains. And we can influence hw much we pay attentin t these sensatins and even hw we interpret them. We ften verestimate the struggle and pain required t cmplete cgnitive tasks. This initial verestimatin can lead us t prcrastinate, r even avid the task altgether.
Studies suggest that if we can get past that initial hurdle f starting a task, then thinking becmes easier. One way t d that is t pay attentin t the benefits instead f the effrts required. In a study published in the jurnal Science in 2020, Andrew Westbrk, a neurscientist at Rutgers University, and his clleagues gave participants the chice f slving an easy memry puzzle fr a small amunt f mney r a much harder puzzle fr mre mney. The ptins were displayed n a screen, and participants’ eye mvements were tracked as they decided which puzzle t attempt. When peple spent mre time lking at the reward fr the challenging puzzle, they were mre likely t chse it. If ur mind’s eye, r ur attentinal fcus, is n the benefits f an ptin, ver time we’ re mre likely t chse t d hard things.
Perfrming cmplex mental tasks will als be less painful if the exertin f mental effrt is habitized. When we dn’t have t make a decisin t fcus every day, we will save urselves cnsidering the csts r cnsequences. T make cgnitively demanding tasks a habit, try t d them every day at the same time and in the same place. Add a ritual befre the wrk starts, such as turning ff the phne and launching an app t blck distracting websites. After a few weeks, cncentrating deeply wn’t just feel easier; it will actually be easier.
27. Peple may feel certain cgnitive task demanding because f ________.
A. mre brain energy cnsumptinB. the cmplexity f cmputatins
C. the higher level f difficultyD. new crdinatin f brain parts
28. The authr qutes the 2020 study mainly t ________ .
A. supprt a slutinB. present a case
C. analyze the causesD. challenge an assumptin
29 What can be inferred frm the passage?
A. Overestimatin prmtes efficiency.
B. Persnal perceptin determines mtivatin.
C. Fcusing n rewards enhances perfrmance.
D. Brain cunteractin triggers psitive emtins.
30. Which f the fllwing can make mental wrk feel easier?
A. Receiving cntinuus supprt when feeling dwn.
B. Seeking prfessinal help when meeting a deadline.
C. Reading thick literary classics fr twenty minutes daily.
D. Breaking dwn a challenging prject int smaller tasks.

Science shuld guide plicy, but cautin is needed when technlgies like CRISPR have the ptential t exclude rather than assist peple t live their lives.
CRISPR can be used t treat disease. Yet the far-reaching, mre wrrying prmise f this technlgy — ne abut which scientists seem at nce excited and cautius — lies in its ability t eliminate frm the gene pl what medical science identifies as faulty r abnrmal genes that cause difference in individual peple. Certainly, ges the lgic f CRISPR’s prmise, the gal f ridding future generatins f terrible diseases that cause suffering and death and exhaust resurces, seems an unquestinable enterprise.
This lgic is cnsistent with wider scietal views. The idea that ridding sciety f genetic differences that cunt as defect (缺陷) is an undeniable “gd” cntinues t be pervasive. Editing ut a gene-linked cnditin, supprters may argue, is different frm editing ut a persn, and curing disease is a gd thing. But ur genetic cnditins are nt simply entities that can be clipped away frm us and ur genetic cnditins frm a fundamental part f wh we are.
Using genme manipulatin tls and perfrming genetic selectin is equal t a new frm f eugenic (优生学的) thinking grunded in what the cmmunicatins studies schlar James L. Chemey calls “cmmn sense” ableism, a belief system that allws peple t simultaneusly deny any cmmitment t distasteful eugenic principles while als hlding them up. Ultimately, “cmmn sense” ableism embdies a similar gal f cleansing unacceptable human variatins that the campaigns t eliminate the suppsedly inferir have held in the past.
Peple with “bad” genes shuldn’t be edited ut f existence in sme versin f a utpian (乌托邦的) future. Evaluating the quality f life f anther persn is mrally questinable in a sciety based n the cncept that all peple are f equal value regardless f their individual differences.
Expanding diversity in all its frms, including disability, strengthens the human cmmunity ethically and bilgically because it pens the public and private sphere t a variety f perspectives, experiences and ideas t live tgether with mutual flurishing.
Genme editing is pwerful in reshaping medical treatments, but it can als be harmful by editing ut the kinds f peple that medical science, and the sciety it has shaped, categrize as diseased r genetically cntaminated — peple wh are understd as having bad genes. We shuld be reminded that bad genes dn’t necessarily lead t bad lives, just as gd genes dn’t necessarily lead t gd lives. If CRISPR is put t use t eliminate rather than t treat genetic difference, we as a sciety wuld essentially instrumentalize this mralistic and reductinist assumptin.
31. Accrding t the authr, CRISPR is________.
A. a necessary evil in treating severe diseases
B. a questinable tl fr remving faulty genes
C. a prmising technlgy t cnserve resurces
D. a lgical apprach t imprving human genetics
32. The authr discusses “cmmn sense” ableism in Paragraph 4 t________.
A. cmpare genetic selectin t eugenic thinking
B. trace the evlutin f genetic selectin in histry
C. ffer an example f campaigns t remve bad genes
D. reveal the rt f the scietal view n genetic differences
33. What des the underlined part in the last sentence mean?
A. Peple need t adpt mre simplified slutins.
B. The sciety shuld apply CRISPR int ther fields.
C. This belief might be widely practiced in the sciety.
D. The technlgy will be used t create a utpian future.
34. Which wuld be the best title fr this passage?
A. The Dark Side f CRISPRB. In the Wake f Genetic Selectin
C. In Defense f Our Bad GenesD. The Prmise and Price f Gene Editing

I smile as sn as I am greeted by the barista (咖啡师) wh knws my name and rder. As I head t a table, latte in hand, I feel a lightness in my step. This is a feeling yu might experience in yur daily life as well. Chances are, there are peple yu cme int cntact with daily, wh yu may nt knw well but can put a smile n yur face.
Peple like this are called “cnsequential strangers”. They culd be the neighbr yu chat t r even the persn yu regularly make small talk with at the gym. Typically, ur lives feature many cnsequential strangers. We may nly knw sme f them fr a shrt time, whereas thers may becme lngstanding parts f ur lives.
Like me, cunsellr Tina Chummun has fund that the barista she sees regularly is an imprtant cnsequential stranger t her. “I trust the feedback frm the barista because she has a cmpletely different perspective f me,” she explains. Cnsequential strangers can give us a space t talk abut things that perhaps we dn’t with ther peple in ur lives, and t hear alternative perspectives. These interactins are emtinally beneficial as well: the cnsequential strangers in my life nt nly help me feel a strnger sense f belnging t my cmmunity but als help with lneliness. And sme f these cnnectins culd ptentially becme supprtive relatinships we can turn t fr help.
“There are many ways that yu can apprach strangers and start cnversatins,” says Tina. “If yu’re at a train statin waiting fr a train, yu can strike up a cnversatin abut hw annying the delay is.” Yu may find that this brings yu int a fuller cnversatin, but even if yu nly have a fleeting exchange with smene, this is a great way t build yur cnfidence. Of curse, nt every cnsequential stranger is ging t becme a gd friend and that’s OK. Still, they are a valuable part f yur life, able t make yu smile and feel a sense f cnnectin. And that in itself is well wrth celebrating.
40. What kind f peple des the term “cnsequential strangers” refer t?
_________________________________________________________
41. Hw d cnsequential strangers cntribute t the authr’s emtinal well-being?
_________________________________________________________
42. Please decide which part is false in the fllwing statement, then underline it and explain why.
Having cnsequential strangers is well wrth celebrating as they are ging t becme yur gd friends

43. Write abut ne f yur cnsequential strangers and hw he/she influences yu.( In abut 40 wrds)
