BI had been following the yellowish-green markers for a "popular and easy" three-mile
out-and-back hike( 远足). Immediately after the trailhead, the trail( 小径) became very rocky and
steep. But having read about the hike, I knew within five minutes, I was supposed to reach the hike's
first overlook.
However, the overlook never appeared. Instead, I found myself lost in the woods. Pulling out
my cellphone, I saw it read "no service". I checked the last text message I'd sent to my mom. It read,
"Conference ended...going for a small hike before my flight home this afternoon." I put my phone
away and kept moving and yelling, "Help! Is anybody out there?" Every so often, I'd stop to listen,
but I never heard a reply.
I got out my phone again. The battery was running out fast as it searched for a signal. I
struggled to find a place where I could get service. When I did, I called my mom. It went through! In
a shaky voice, I said, “Mom?” and then the call dropped. More than 1,500 miles away, my mom
instantly knew something was wrong. She called the Denver Police Department and was directed to
the U.S. Forest Service.
This was how I was introduced to John, an operator from the U.S. Forest Service. Following
Johns instruction on the phone, I finally escaped from the woods. I breathed a sigh of relief. Then
my phone rang, and it was John, making sure I was still going in the right direction. "By the way,"
he said, "we've had your mother on hold this whole time. So once you get down the mountain, you
will absolutely want to give her a call."
24. What did the author do while finding the trail rocky and steep?
A. He yelled for help. B. He continued walking.
C. He found the first overlook. D. He returned to the start.
25. When did the author tell his mom about the hiking?
A. After he got lost. B. After John’s call.
C. After a conference. D. After the call dropped.
26. How did the author's mom know he was in danger?
A. The author called and told her about it.
B. The author's flight didn't arrive on time.
C. She learned it from the U.S. Forest Service.
D. She sensed something unusal on the ohone.
27. What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A. John came to the woods for the author.
B. The author's mom was on line waiting.
C. John lost touch with the author's mom.
D. The author went in the wrong direction.
C
Some scientists will say it is impossible to read minds. They will also tell you that you can
make educated guesses on what a person might be thinking or feeling. Perhaps there really is nothing
mysterious about the power to read minds. Perhaps it is simply human sense based on observation
and educated guesses after all, but that's really a useful ability to learn.
Learn body language. How a person moves and holds his hands, and even what his eyes are
doing are actually telling about what is going on inside one’s head. For example, pupils(瞳孔) tend
to grow larger when you are interested in or excited about something. If you are talking to someone
and making eye contact, finding his pupils are large and round, chances are that they are not feigning
interest in the conversation. Someone biting his nails is probably nervous. Someone who folds his
arms across his chest when he is not cold is probably trying to put a barrier between you and him.
Learn to mentally put yourself in another's place. Scientists have recently discovered that your
brain has neurons(神经元) that become active when you watch someone do something the same as you did yourself. So when you are able to open yourself to understanding how other people are
feeling, you can figure out reasons and predict future actions, reactions, and even thoughts.
Sometimes you can use Extra Sensory Perception (ESP) (超感官知觉) to read someone's mind.
This does not mean you will literally be able to read one's mind like a book. Instead, you will receive
impressions or feelings, which are difficult to explain.
To improve your ESP abilities, take up meditation(冥想), because meditation helps enable you
to purposely put your brain in a state of relaxed awareness, where you will be more successful in
reading people and receiving impressions.
Practice and combine all of these steps. You will soon find yourself able to read people's minds.
28. What is the passage mainly about?
A. The ways of reading people's minds.
B. The steps of learning body language.
C. The necessity of learning to read people's minds.
D. The relationship between mind and body language.
29. What does the underlined word “feigning” mean?
A. Expressing. B. Pretending. C. Finding. D. Declaring
30. Why can you read someone's mind when you mentally put yourself in his/her place?
A. You suddenly have the ability to understand his or her feeling.
B. Your imagination and past experiences are combined.
C. Some neurons in your brain improve your observation ability.
D. Your past similar experiences make some neurons in your brain active.
31. How does meditation help with mind reading?
A. By making educated guesses on mind. B. By learning to make eye contact.
C. By changing ESP abilities for the better. D. By strengthening impressions received.
D
According to recent reports, perfectionism is on the rise, especially among young people. This
is a very bad thing–perfectionsm is linked to anxiety, depression, and many other problems---but
the lucky thing is that we're no longer talking as if it were something to be proud of. In today's
winner-takes-all economy, perfectionism is an entirely forgivable suffering. But it is a suffering,
because perfectionism is the belief that anything short of the very best is a shameful failure. It makes
people be a miserable(痛苦的) high achiever, or worse: some studies suggest it's actually a barrier to
highe achievement.
One common respondse to perfectionism is to encourage the sufferer to see that his fears are
exaggerated(夸大的), and that things you won't really be so bad if he fails the exam, gets criticized
for his work performance or lets the house get messy. Perfectionism means a life spent unhappily
leaning( 倾 斜 ) into the future, because no matter how well you perform on any given challenge,
there's always the next one to stress you out. So it makes sense to help people see when that next
challenge arrives, an imperfect performance wouldn't mean catastrophe.
Yes, it helps you worry less about what'll happen if you fail to meet your too high standards
next week, or next year. The problem, though, is that this is still a future-oriented way, as it allows
the perfectionist's mind to keep secretly hoping that when that moment arrives, you'll do perfectly
after all. Therefore, a better way is to let you realize that it's not that your attempts to live perfectly
might fail, but that they have failed: perfection is already a lost cause. From childhood until today,
you've been failing to learn countless skills, develop countless friendships and achieve countless
goals, only because attention is limited. Focusing on anything means not focusing on almost
everything.
Life naturally contains some types of failure, which makes it strange to call it a "failure" at all.
If everyone is sure to miss the target, clearly the trouble is with the target. 32. What can we know about perfectionism from paragraph 1?
A. It can give people a great sense of achievement.
B. It's a result of the winner-takes-all economy.
C. It's a necessary quality of successful people.
D. It can be harmful to people's mental health.
33. What does the underlined word "it" in paragraph 3 refer to?
A. Realizing being imperfect is nothing serious.
B. Regarding professionalism a shameful failure.
C. Leaning into the future if you fail this time.
D. Performing well on any given challenge.
34. According to the author, a better solution to perfectionism is to realize that _________.
A. we'd better not set too high targets
B. it's wrong to try to go after perfection.
C. it's already too late to learn countless skills
D. our attention should not be easily drawn away.
35. What is the text mainly about?
A. The way to deal with failures. B. Suggestions on perfectionism.
C. The suffering of perfectionists. D. Different attitudes to perfectionism.
第二节(共 5 小题;每小题 3 分,满分 15 分)
根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Every single decision we make shapes our current reality. 36
So if you're unsatisfied with your life right now, making the effort to change your decisions will
be the key to creating the life you want to have in the future.
Realize the power of decision-making.
37 When you decide to pick up a cigarette, that decision might result in you picking up
another later on. But if you decide not to smoke that first cigarette and make a decision to focus your
attention on somewhere else, your desire will eventually weaken and you will become smoke-free.
38
When you make a decision, act on it. Commit to making a real decision. What's a real decision?
It's when you decide on something, and that decision is carried out through action. It's pointless
making a decision in your head, but not doing anything about it. That's the same as not making a
decision at all.
Tell others about your decisions.
Sometimes telling other people what we're going to do will make us follow through. I've been
trying to become an early riser but waking up early without falling back asleep felt impossible. So I
made the decision to tell people that I would wake up at 6 a.m and stay up. 39
Have fun making decisions.
40 I know decision-making might not be a fun thing but when you do it often, you'll learn a
lot about yourself on the way, and you'll become more confident, and making decisions will just
become so easier that you won't even think about it.
A. Enjoy the process.
B. Carry your decision out.
C. Examine the decisions you now have.
D. Any decision you make causes a chain of events.
E. Within two days, I was able to accomplish doing this.
F. But we often go through life unaware what actions we are taking.
G. Before making a decision, you have to understand what the decision means.

I was in a local store the other day when suddenly I heard the sound of breaking glass behind
me. 41 I turned around to see what had happened. A young mother had 42 from her shopping

took for her baby boy to test out his newly found 44 to lift things from his seat in the cart.

One evening I found myselt at a business meeting in Washington, D.C. and Bucky Fuller
happened to be making a lecture that evening at another business meeting in 61 very same hotel.
I got to the ballroom in time 62 (hear) the end of Bucky's lecture. I looked in wonder 63 this
little man in his eighties, with his clear mind, deep wise thoughts and endless energy. At the end of
the talk, we talked together through the underground parking lot 64 (lead) to his airport. "I've got to go to New York City tonight for another lecture," he said, looking at me with an
anxiousness that I had rarely seen in Bucky. "You know, Annie's not doing well. I'm very 65
(concern) about her."
Bucky Fuller had once shared in secret with me that he had promised his wife Annie to die 66
she did, so that he could be there to welcome her when 67 was her turn.
Soon after Bucky's lecture in New York, he learned that Annie had been in a hospital in Los
Angles. Doctors felt that there 68 (be) a good chance she would not regain consciousness(意识).
Bucky took the first flight he could get. Upon arriving in Los Angeles, he went immediately to
Anne's bedside. Sitting beside her, he closed his eyes and 69 (quiet) died.
Hours later, Annie peacefully joined him in 70 (die). He had kept his promise. He was
