My friends and I were taking photos in the street of Vienna, trying to record the beauty of a foreign country. The change in climate had made my contacts (隐形眼镜)dry out quite often, so I was wearing my glasses.But I didn’t think the glasses looked good on me, so for any photo I was in, I would take them off. When I took them off in front of Vienna State Opera, I heard a tiny “ping!”— a screw(螺丝) fell off my glasses and they separated in half.Hurriedly, my friends and I began to search for the tiny screw. We looked everywhere, but it was nowhere to be found. I was close to tears. How could I enjoy the rest of my trip if I could see nothing clearly?!Just at that moment, my friend saw a store with a sign in German whose windows were full of various pairs of glasses. To try our luck, we raced into the store. Not speaking any German, we did our best to explain the situation.A friendly old man smiled gently and took my glasses into the back of the store.After a while, he came back into the room. Smiling softly, he handed me my glasses, fully fixed. I tried to ask the man how much it would cost. However, the man just smiled at me and said, “For you? I will do it for free.”That is the kindest thing a stranger has ever done for me. While I was in a foreign country and unable to even speak his language, this man, with a business to run, still gifted me that tiny, necessary screw -- thus the ability to see for the rest of my trip and also a memory to be treasured.10.

I thought I would score the most points and everyone would praise me. I thought that I would score the last basket for my team, winning the game, and then everyone would praise me.I thought about many situations like that, and I thought that I would be famous because of my act of heroism. I was very overconfident.There was one week left until the tournament and I trained hard. The day before the tournament, there was apractice game between our team members. It was just a practice in which I helped my team win by scoring most of our points. Now everyone had faith in me that I would help my team win.The next day it came time for the game to begin. All my team members passed the ball to me again and again, but I only scored two baskets. The game was coming to an end and, as one of our opponents(对手) was trying to shoot the ball, Ted, my teammate, jumped high in the air and stopped the ball. He passed me the ball, and I thought my dream was about to come true－the winning of the game was in my hands. I was not able to contain(抑制) my excitement and ran down the court to shoot the ball. Because of my carelessness, I fell down and an opposing(对方的) player took the ball. We lost the game. Everybody looked at me with sharp eyes and I was unable to show my face to anyone.On that day, I realized that sometimes what we thought would not get done in real. We want to be heroes, but our overconfidence can cause failure.16．When I played basketball for my team like a hero, I would be ______.A．lucky B．famous C．e xcited D．o verconfident17．I trained ______ when there was one week left until the tournament.A．hard B．alone C．early D．carefully 18．We lost the game because of my ______.A．h eroism B．d ifficulty C．n ervousness D．carelessness（2023 北京房山统考二模）20.

His mom knocked on the door.“Jameson, may I come in?”“I’m really busy studying for my math test right now.” Maybe that would make Mom think twice about forcing him to play with Timothy Kyle.“Oh, okay then. Never mind.”Jameson heard his mom walk back down the hall. He was happy his plan had worked, but now he had to stay in his room because his mom thought he was studying.He looked outside. The sun was shining, and it was the perfect day to be outdoors. He pictured playing football in the park with his friends.

Then his mom said, “Mrs. Kyle called earlier. She had tickets to the new amusement park. She said you could have them.”Things were different from what Jameson thought. He deeply regretted what he did. “I should try to figure out (弄清楚) what is exactly happening instead of lying to Mom for my own good,” he thought.22.

Children need at least 8 to 10 hours of sleep per night. Feed your children a solid breakfast and prepare a healthy lunch. Provide them with fruit and other healthy foods—apples or bananas are better for them than cookies.Make sure that your children do their homework.

Teachers can always tell who it is that does the work.Teach your children good manners and habits. Children need to arrive at the school punctually, and be polite to their teachers and classmates.

But what if you’re not sleepy? Should you still go to bed if you are just going to lie there with your eyes wide open?There are many reasons why you are not able to fall asleep. Y ou might be excited by something you did that day. You might be excited about what you’re going to do next day. Maybe you can’t fall asleep because you don’ t like sleeping all alone in your room. All of these reasons are normal . However, there are some steps you can take to help you fall asleep. One thing that can help is talking to a parent or another trusted adult about what you’re thinking about at bedtime. For example, if you’re nervous about taking a test, or unhappy about being laughed at school, it can really hel p to tell somebody. Knowing that somebody has heard you can help ease (宽慰) your mind so that you can rest.It also helps to sleep in a comfortable bed in a quiet and cool room. If there’s anything in your room that makes you feel afraid at night, like a picture that looks strange in the dark, be sure to ask one of your parents if it can be moved.If you are usually sleepless around bedtime, doing certain things to relax beforehand (预先) may help you fall asleep when you go to bed. For example, take a warm bath, or listen to a story at least 30 minutes before you want to go to sleep. It also helps to go to sleep at the same time every night. As a result, your body will get the message that it’s almos t time to sleep.根据材料内容选择最佳答案。
2023北京初三二模英语汇编阅读单选CD篇（2023 北京西城统考二模）Water lovers will tell you that not all water tastes the same. However, if your water tastes different when it's in a reusable plastic bottle, a new study finds it may be a cause for worry.Two scientists, Jan Christensen and Selina Tisler, have undertaken a study about which chemicals （化学物质）in reusable plastic bottles go into the water. They let water sit for 24 hours in new bottles, in used bottles and in bottles that had just come out of a dishwashing machine. After that, they compared what they found in the water in the different bottles.The results were quite a surprise. More than 400 difierent chemicals had leached （析出）from new plastic bottles into the water. Water stored in used plastic bottles had the highest levels of plastic-related chemicals. Running the bottles through a dishwasher worsened the leaching. After a single washing, more than 3, 500 difierent chemicals ended up in a bottle's water. Many of these were related to dishwasher soap （洗碗皂）and remained even after a second washing with running water. What's more, dishwashing itself also caused more plastic chemicals to leach.Similar discoveries were also made by Pat Hunt, a biologist at Washington State University. She found that heat can cause chemicals to move out of plastics. Hot water in a dishwasher helps to clean dishes. But plastics can start to break down if they are in hot water repeatedly, "Plastics just shouldn't go in the dishwasher, " she concludes.Christensen and Tisler5s study found some chemicals that are probably harmful. Future studies could make clear how much of each chemical is there. And that's important. Just because a chemical is in the water doesn't mean it will cause problems. Much of the risk will depend on how much of a chemical actually gets into the body.Hunt agrees. "This study is a starting point, " she says. It gives researchers ideas about what chemicals from reusable bottles are probably in water. But it doesn't tell us what risks the now-polluted water may bring to us. More research is needed.Still, lowering exposures （接触）to plastic-related chemicals is probably a good idea. Hunt suggests using non-plastic bottles. "If you do use a plastic bottle, fill it up and use it right away, " Tisler adds. “It's best not to store water in them overnight or for long periods of time. ”1. What can we learn from the passage?A. The length of time water is kept in plastics matters.B. Water in new plastic bottles has the most chemicals.C. Drinking hot water in plastic bottles harms people's health.D. Over 3, 500 plastic chemicals are found in dishwashed bottles.2. According to the passage, further research is needed to find out ________.A. whether chemicals actually enter the bodyB. how plastic-related chemicals get into waterC. what risks plastic-related chemicals may causeD. when people should throw away a plastic bottle3. What is this passage mainly about?A. Improper usage of plastic bottles.B. Various opinions about plastic bottles.C. Unknown chemicals in plastic bottles.D. Research findings about plastic bottles.（2023 北京西城统考二模）Why do we do the things we do? What drivesour behavior? Psychologists have suggested different ways of thinking aboutmotivation （动机）, including looking at whether motivation arises from outside（extrinsic）or inside （intrinsic） a person.Researchers have found that each type has a different effect on a person'sbehavior and efforts to achieve goals. To better understand the influence of intrinsic and extrinsic motivation on human behavior, it would help to learn how each type works.Extrinsic motivation is when you are motivated to perform a behavior or take part in an activity because you want to get a reward （奖赏）or avoid punishment. You will take action not because you enjoy it, but because you expect to get something in return or avoid something unpleasant.Intrinsic motivation is when you decide to do something because you find it satisfying. You are performing an activity for what it is not because you are after some external （外部的）reward. The behavior itself is its own reward.Studies have shown that offering too many external rewards for an already internally rewarding behavior can reduce intrinsic motivation—which is known as the over justification （奖励过当）effect. For example, in a 2008 study, children who were rewarded for playing with a toy they had already expressed interest in playing with became less interested in the toy after being externally rewarded.This is not to suggest that extrinsic motivation is a bad thing—it can be beneficial in some situations. For example, extrinsic motivation can be especially helpful when a person needs to complete a task that they find unpleasant.Most people would accept that intrinsic motivation is best, but it is not always possible in every situation. Sometimes a person simply has no internal wish to join in an activity.Both extrinsic and intrinsic motivation play a key role in learning. Experts have argued that education's traditional stress on external rewards （such as grades, report cards, and gold stars）undermines any intrinsic motivation that students might already have. However, others have suggested that extrinsic motivators can help students feel more knowledgeable in the classroom, which in turn builds up their intrinsic motivation.As professor David Myers put it, a person’s interest often survives when a reward is used neither to bribe （贿赂）nor to control but to show a job well done, as in a “most improved player” award. Put simply, rewards, rightly given, can increase enjoyment and motivate high performance.Understanding how each type of motivation works and when it is likely to be useful can help people perform tasks and improve their learning.4. You do something out of intrinsic motivation when you ___________.A. do schoolwork to get a good gradeB. work on a subject you find interestingC. take part in a sport to receive recognitionD. clean your room to avoid criticism from your parents5. Why does the writer mention the 2008 study in Paragraph 5?A. To explain the benefits of offering toys as rewards.B. To prove external rewards can influence one’s interest.C. To introduce how intrinsic motivation works in children.D. To stress the importance of understanding intrinsic motivation.6. The word "undermines" in Paragraph 8 means _______________.A. weakensB. separatesC. improvesD. encourages7. The writer probably agrees that ______________________.A. extrinsic motivation is key to one's achievementB. intrinsic motivation has little to do with enjoying a taskC. properly-given rewards can encourage further improvementD. offering rewards of any kind takes the fun out of an activity（2023 北京海淀统考二模）Most kids know it’s wrong to shout at orhit someone. But what if that someone is Alexa - an AI (Artificial Intelligence人工智能) speaker, or Roomba - a robot cleaner?A new study by Teresa Flanagan, a developmental psychologist from DukeUniversity, found that kids aged four to eleven felt neither Roomba nor Alexashould be shouted at or attacked. However, that feeling weakened as kids grewinto their teens.Flanagan was inspired to do the research after watching some movies about robots. “In those movies, we see adults interacting with robots in terrible ways,” said Flanagan. “But how would kids interact with them?”Flanagan invited 127 children aged four to eleven to take part in the study. The kids were asked to watch a video of the two devices (设备) and then answer a few questions, like whether it was wrong to attack Al devices and how smart and sensitive they thought Alexa was compared to Roomba. Flanagan studied the survey data and found something encouraging.Overall, kids decided that both Alexa and Roomba, unlike humans, probably weren’t ticklish (怕痒) and wouldn’t feel pain when they got hit. However, they gave Alexa, but not Roomba, high marks for mental and emotional abilities, such as being able to think or getting upset when someone was mean to it.“Young children think Alexa, even without a body, has emotions and a mind,” Flanagan said. “But they don’t think Roomba does — maybe that has something to do with Alexa’s ability to have verbal(语音的) communication.”Although they believed the two intelligent devices had different abilities, children across all ages agreed it was wrong to hit or shout at the machines. However, the older kids got, the more they reported it would be more acceptable to attack devices.The findings offer new ideas about the changing relationship between children and intelligent devices and raise important questions about how we are supposed to treat them in general and as parents. Should adults, for example, model good behavior for their kids by thanking Al devices for their help?For now, Flanagan is trying to understand why children think it is wrong to attack intelligent devices.8. Why does Flanagan mention some movies in Paragraph 3?A. To present how robots influence children.B. To stress the importance of Al technology.C. To explain where the research idea came from.D. To show the popularity of children’s TV shows.9. What can we learn from the passage?A. Adults set a good example on treating AI.B. Flanagan studied the data with the help of AI.C. Alexa has more physical feelings than Roomba.D. Younger kids hold a friendlier attitude to Al devices.10. What will Flanagan probably do next?A. Examine what good manners kids show toward AI.B. Test whether Alexa is much smarter than Roomba.C. Survey how adults interact with intelligent devices.D. Study why kids think AI is worthy of nice treatment.（2023 北京海淀统考二模）Awe is the feeling of amazement and respect mixed with surprise. Research shows that awe experiences decrease stress and anxiety and increase positive(积极的) emotions and overall satisfaction in life. It can also improve our relationships, making us more likely to help others and more supported.Most of us connect awe with something unusual and beautiful: nature, music or a spiritual experience. But ordinary people can bring about awe too. Research shows we can be awed by our nearest and dearest—the people sitting next to us, or talking on the other end of the phone. Psychologists call this interpersonal awe.Often, this interpersonal awe is how people respond(反应) to life’s big changes, like seeing a baby’s first steps or a friend fighting against cancer. Yet interpersonal awe happens in our everyday life, too. John Bargh, a psychologist, said he was “truly awe struck” by his then-5-year-old daughter while dining in a McDonald’s years ago. When she heard another child crying across the restaurant, she took the toy from her Happy Meal, walked over and handed it to him.We can’t make someone else behave in an awesome way, but we can get prepared to notice it when they do and take steps to strengthen the emotion’s positive effects.To increase your chances of feeling awed by people around you, Marianna Craziosi, an expert in positive psychology, suggests you direct your attention to people’s positive sides and catch them at their best. You may think your brother or friend is selfish; there may be a little truth to that, but it’s never the whole story. “Try to find examples of him helping others or doing something great. In other words, become a field scientist, like Jane Goodall,” Graziosi said.To help you recognize and remember a special experience, say out loud “Wow, that was awesome!” when awe strikes you. Enjoy it in the moment and tell others about it. This will strengthen your positive emotions. And recall it or write about it later. Studies show awe can be drawn again simply by remembering an awe experience.When you feel awed by people around you, thank them and let them know just how much their actions affect you. This makes the other person feel good and can give your relationship an improvement. And you’ll also have high levels of happiness and psychological well-being.Awe could be anywhere. Perhaps awe, while an ordinary response to the extraordinary, is also an extraordinary response to the ordinary.11. You are likely to feel interpersonal awe when__________.A. you listen to a CD of a popular singerB. you read a book about a famous personC. you get a surprise help from your familyD. you watch a beautiful sunset with friends12. By saying the underlined words in Paragraph 5, Graziosi suggests that we should_________.A. read about how to get on with othersB. try to get a full picture of other peopleC. watch carefully how others do their jobsD. learn from an expert in positive psychology13. The writer would probably agree that__________ .A. awe often comes from senses of satisfactionB. awe moments are usually very difficult to createC. nature provides the most awe in our everyday lifeD. recalling awe experiences strengthens relationships14. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. Respond to Awe in Everyday LifeB. Spread Awe to People AroundC. Express Thanks to Awesome PeopleD. Take down Awesome Moments（2023 北京门头沟统考二模）Highly productive people have certain habits that other people don’t. How are they getting so much done and achieving their purposes? We all want success, but what are we doing wrong? Here are a few habits you really need to avoid if you want to be highly productive.Not seeing the bigger pictureStarting with the end in mind can help you to imagine what you are trying to create. When you can see the bigger picture, you can begin to break the course down in steps to see exactly how you’re going to get there. Thinking of the end helps you keep your eye on the prize, especially when you get less confident.Working without priorities (优先事项)When deciding what steps to take to reach the end, highly productive people don’t waste time on details that influence the course. Make your path simple. Pay attention to what is important.Procrastination (拖延症)Though it is true, it can be the hardest thing. If we wait for the right time, it may take us a very long time to finally feel confident to begin something. Many things can pull us away from starting our project.Working long hours without breaksYou can’t do your best job if you’re very tired. If you take care of yourself, you are better prepared to be in top form to do the job at hand. According to studies, the ability to give attention becomes weaker after about an hour, and then you will become less productive. So if you’re tired, don’t work harder. You need at least a 15-minute break to give your brain a rest and be ready to do more of your best work.Listening to people who say “no”Never be limited by other people. Highly productive people are not prevented by difficulty and other people’s ideas about what they’re doing. They find a way to get started, and they find a way not to give up.15．What does the underlined word “productive” in Paragraph 1 mean?A．实际的B．繁忙的C．乐观的D．高效的17．Which can help do your best work when you are tired?A．Try the hardest project.B．Spend a quarter resting.C．Work harder than before. D．Spend more time on details.（2023 北京门头沟统考二模）Want to fall asleep fast? Read a book before going to bed. It is at the top of most lists if you ask the Internet for tips for falling asleep. But why does reading make us so sleepy?“For many people, reading can be relaxing and enjoyable. It can put your mind and body in the right mood(状态) to go to sleep,” says Raman Malhotra. He is an expert(专家) at the Washington University Sleep Center. Of course, that’s if you’re reading something relaxing. According to Dr. Malhotra, reading anything that could make you too excited probably isn’t good for relaxing.Making it a habit to read every night before bed might make reading even more helpful for your sleep. This is because having a regular “relaxing time” before bed can help improve your sleep. “Adding a bedtime routine(惯例) of 15 to 30 minutes can separate your ‘sleep time’ from activities that can cause excitement,” says Dr. Malhotra.Moreover, reading tires your eyes out. This happens with both paper books and e-books, but Dr. Malhotra recommends(推荐) paper books.“Most of the digital(数码的) readers send out blue light, and this light can cause our body’s internal clocks (生物钟) to not work correctly,” he says. “This will make it more difficult for us to fall asleep.”That blue light is why doctors advise you not to spend time using your phone too close to your bedtime. Besides,if you’re reading on a phone, you may easily end up opening up other apps and staying up late.On the other hand, sometimes you’re trying to finish a book but are having a hard time staying awake through it. In this case, Dr. Malhotra suggests trying a brighter light. You can also sit straight, or make sure the room isn’t too warm. If you do get really tired, though, it’s probably a sign that you need some rest.Reading might not be the best sleep aid (辅助物) for everyone, but if you’ve been experiencing some trouble recently, it might be worth having a try.18．According to Malhotra, what may be the result of reading exciting books before bed?A．Being awake.B．Being hungry.C．Being tired.D．Being Angry.19．Why are paper books recommended by Dr. Malhotra?A．To advise people to stay up reading.B．To encourage people to love reading.C．To get more money by selling paper books.D．To stop people being influenced by blue lights.20．What does Dr. Malhotra advise people to do when they are trying to finish a book but are having a hard time staying awake through it?A．Build a big room.B．Lie down to read.C．Put in a brighter light.D．Stop to have some snacks.21．Which can be the best title for the text?A．Read for Fun B．Read to Sleep C．Sleeping Habits D．Sleeping Problems（2023 北京房山统考二模）Yawning is something we all do — maybe because we’re bored carrying out uninteresting tasks or because we’re tired. Sometimes, just seeing another people yawn can cause you to yawn. But is yawning really contagious (传染的), and why do we do it in the first place?Many of us think we open our mouths when we yawn to take in more oxygen (氧气),but in fact it appears there is no clear reason. According to BBC Bitesize, new research suggestsit might be because yawning cools the brain down and prevents it from overheating, much likethe fan in your computer. This might be why we’re more likely to feel sleepy and yawn in warmtemperatures.What is clear is that we yawn more when we’re very tired and ready for a short sleep, and we can’t control when we do it — once we start, there’s no stopping us! But it’s also true that yawning is a very contagious behaviour. John Drury, a researcher from Sussex University, told the BBC, “Yawning is something that you can’t stop. Dogs yawn when their owners yawn. Animals yawn at each other. It happens whether you want to or not.”His research into this behaviour found that there is a connection with our social group and how close we are to the people in it. If we identify with (认同) the person who yawns, we are likely to copy it too.Another research by the University of Nottingham in 2017 found similar results. They asked volunteers to watch other people yawn. They found their ability to prevent yawning when others around them yawned was limited. And the desire (渴望) to yawn was increased when people were told they couldn’t. They also found, when using electrical stimulation (刺激), that they were able to increase people’s desire to yawn. These findings, they say, could be useful because it could help treat other conditions like Tourette’s (儿童抽动症), which involve the same area of the brain.What is certain is that the act of yawning can happen at any time even when we think we’re not tired — but, I hope, not when you’re reading this article!22. According to BBC Bitesize, the reason why we yawn might be________ .A. our brains need to exerciseB. we have to breathe more oxygenC our brains need to be cooled downD. we are not used to warm temperatures23. What can we learn from the research by the University of Nottingham?A .The use of electrical stimulation can help control the strong wish to yawn.B. People can keep themselves from yawning when they are told not to do it.C. People are more likely to yawn when someone around them yawns.D. The findings of the research can be used to prevent some diseases.24. What is the passage mainly about?A. The process of yawning.B. The reasons for yawning.C. The use of findings about yawning.D. The development of studying yawning.n a foreign language and experience different cultures.（2023 北京房山统考二模）Separate Boys and Girls at SchoolJack White is a 17-year-old student who has already published a collection of poetry with a local publisher. Jack believes switching (转换) to an all-boys school changed his life.“When I was at my coed (男女同校的) school, poetry was for girls, not boys. Boys were supposed to like subjects like math, computers, and science. When I wrote poems, the boys at school used to make fun of me. At my new school, things are different.Jack may not realize that boys and girls also learn and think differently based on specific (特有的) biological developments. These differences have an effect on how and when boys and girls learn, so single-sex (单性别的) education is actually better for children.Take, for example, brain development. The areas of the brain involved in language, feelings, physical coordination (协调), and social relationships develop in a different order and speed in girls and boys. Teenage girls find it easier to answer the question, “How does the story make you feel?” than teenage boys. Research has shown that teenage girls’ brains develop the connections between language and emotions earlier than boys’ brains. A teenage boy will have more difficulty answering that question because his brain has not fully developed that connection yet. In a single-sex classroom, everyone’s brain is developing at similar speeds, so teachers can teach according to their students’ actual abilities.Boys and girls also have different hearing abilities. Girls have a sense of hearing which is two to four times better than boys. Women teachers often speak more quietly, so boys may have more difficulty hearing a woman teacher if she is talking in her “normal” voice. The teacher needs to speak louder to get the boys’ attention. In a single-sex school, teachers do not have to keep adjusting the volume of their voice.Jack might not notice the biological arguments why single-sex education is better, but he realizes that he is learning faster at his new school. As Jack says, “I hated writing and studying English in my old coed school, but look at me now, I am a published poet! My new school helped me become comfortable with who I really am.”25. What can we learn from the passage?A. Girls usually have less opportunities to talk in class in a coed school.B. Jack was laughed at by other boys because he was not good at poetry.C. The part of the brain that understands our emotions grows slower in boys.26. What will probably happen in a single-sex school?A. Students will learn and make progress at the same speed.B. Teachers will give lessons based on their students’ abilities.C. Students will be expected to learn poetry as a main subject.D. Teachers will ask more questions involved in students’ emotions.27. The words “adjusting the volume” in Paragraph 5 probably mean “________”.A. changing the loudnessB. increasing the clearnessC. lowering the levelD. controlling the speed28. What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage?A. To explain why single-sex education is better.B. To show how a boy became a published poet.C. To compare how boys and girls think differently.D. To discuss the problem of writing poems at school.（2023 北京昌平统考二模）While many people see chores as necessary pains, there are science-based reasons to change your thoughts about chores. It turns out that doing chores is not always in the ways that you might think.As researchers state here in a study, doing tasks which don’t need a lot of effort allows the mind to float around where it will. Your mind gets a break and allows you to consider old problems with new eyes. In fact, effortless tasks create more great ideas than difficult tasks or just resting. So, doing chores can lead to creative problem-solving.Chores are exercise snacks for health. The phrase “exercise snacks” refers to small, even tiny, pieces of physical activity, such as standing for a few minutes after sitting for a while ,taking a two-minute walk, or doing a chore like sweeping up the kitchen. Researchers have studied the effects of exercise snacks ranging（范围）from 30 seconds, like walking up a flight of stairs, to 10 minutes, like washing dishes. Some of the health effects include improved memory, reduced risk of some serious diseases, and longer life.Chores are related to our mental (心理的) health. Completing chores increases your sense of self-efficacy, known as a person’s belief that they have the ability and skills to reach their goals. Self-efficacy, which was first developed by Professor Albert Bandura in the 1970s, has been shown to increase confidence, low self-efficacy is connected with worries, sadness and hopelessness, while higher self-efficacy is connected with life satisfaction, self-confidence, social connection and growth mindset (思维).Doing chores can reduce stress. A small study from Florida State University explored whether the chore of dish washing could reduce stress. Using a group of 51 students, they discovered that dishwashers who were asked to be mindful when washing dishes focusing on the smell of the soap, the warmth of the water. and the feel of the dishes—reported a decrease in nervousness by 27 percent and an increase in mental inspiration by 25 percent. Chores that reduce the mess can also reduce stress.So if you’ve been thinking about cleaning out that junk drawer, do it. You’ll receive more.29. The writer may agree that we can ________ by doing chores.A. get less socialB. live a better lifeC. become more inventiveD. change ways of exercises30. What can we learn from the passage?A. We need to eat snacks after sweeping up the kitchen.B. We can get a sense of achievement by doing chores.C. Using the soap when washing dishes increases efficacy.D. Doing chores every day decreases the creative thinking.31. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. The Course of Doing ChoresB. The Benefits of Doing ChoresC. The Methods for Doing ChoresD. The Science about Doing Chores（2023 北京昌平统考二模）Life can be wonderful, but in reality, it isn’t always so, no matter how hard you try. Some good things may happen completely by chance, but it mostly depends on the effort you put in. And what about bad things? The fact of living means you’ll go through hard times, you won’t always get what you want, and you’ll need resilience to get through it.Resilience is the ability to adapt (适应) to difficult conditions in a positive way. Resilient people are those who can become stronger by dealing with adversity. But resilience is more than just “seeing the good side of things”. It involves, among other things, being able to effectively control our emotions. This will allow you to face and overcome difficult situations. Another great thing about resilience is that you’re not born with a limited ability for it. Instead it develops throughout your life as you interact with your environment.To improve your resilience, you need to know which factors (因素) influence it, both personal and environmental. That way, you can work on each factor and learn how to adapt to adversity in a positive way.First of all, you have to accept what has happened. Obviously, this doesn’t just happen immediately after an unlucky event. It’s a step-by-step process that comes with time and often, the help of an experienced expert.Next, it’s important to be able to see the good side of the situation. In other words, be positive—just don’t forget to be realistic. You shouldn’t just focus on the negative things and forget about the positive, but you also shouldn’t raise the positive to an impossible level.Lastly, having a sense of humor can help to improve your resilience hugely. Being able to laugh at yourself or the situation is a worthwhile tool that helps you adapt to different adversities.On top of personal factors, there are also environmental factors that influence your ability to improve your resilience. When you’re going through a difficult situation, having specialized help can speed up the process of adaptation. Your social support system makes a difference as well. Being able to depend on your family, partners, and friends is an invaluable resource.It’s important to keep all these factors in mind when you’re presented with difficult conditions. It’s normal to struggle (挣扎) at first, but nobody is born knowing how to adapt. The key is to know which tools to use to improve your resilience and grow from everything you’ve been through. As a result, you can get up again when you fall!32. You most probably need resilience whenA. you get the chance to perform in a school playB. you come back from a trip with your classmatesC. you receive a postcard from your sister in the UKD. you try to make up for your mistake in a soccer game33. The underlined word “adversity” in Paragraph 2 probably means “________”.A. unimportant mattersB. powerful emotionsC. unpleasant situationsD. different relationships34. What can we learn from the passage?A. Controlling our emotions is required to go through difficult times.B. Specialized help is a lasting resource for our family and friends.C. Being positive lets us focus on the good side and forget the bad side.D. Laughing at ourselves enables us to improve the sense of humor hugely.35. What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage?A. To encourage us to improve resilience by using proper tools.B. To compare personal and environmental factors of resilience.C. To tell the meaning of resilience and is influence on teenagers.D. To show us some possibilities created by improving resilience.。

Olympics.”he said.“Can a fourth-grader do that?”asked Anna,his younger sister.“I’m not going now.I’ll go when I’m a little older.“Fred shook his head.“I’ve studied how the athletes(运动员)become the best.That is practice.If I practice hard enough,I can’t fail.”“Sounds like a big challenge,”said Dad.“Which sport will you take up?”“I haven’t made up my mind yet,”said Fred.After a month’s practice,Fred got hurt again and again when he tried to find out which sport was for him.He tried different kinds of sport,such as running,jumping,badminton and so on.But at last he stopped practicing.“It’s too difficult.I don’t think I can find a sport right for me,”Fred talked to himself.The following Sunday,the family sat down for dinner as usual.“I’ve decided not to play a sport,”said Fred.Everyone was surprised.“You’re giving up on your Olympic dream?”said Anna.“I didn’t say I was giving up,”said Fred.“I’m still going to the Olympics.”Anna looked puzzled.“How can you go if you don’t do a sport?”Fred held up a book titled Is Sports Medicine the Career for You?“Over the past few weeks,I’ve discovered that athletes need much medical help.So I am going to become a sports doctor.I’ll still go to the Olympics—but as a doctor,not an athlete.”Fred answered confidently.“Now that is another challenge,Fred!”said Dad.“I’m sure you would do as well as you can to realize

personal.It’s as if readers of physical books make friends with them.Of course,some could say that the devices(设备)on which people read e-books,like Kindles and iPads are also objects that we like.But it isn’t quite the same.A Kindle can hold as many pieces of writing as a whole library.But a story we remember from our time turning its pages in our favourite armchair enters our memory forever.Physical books are as valuable to some readers as photographs of family members.This“friendship”people develop with books isn’t just about feelings.Research has shown that readers remember more information read from physical books than electronic ones.However,there’s no doubt e-books are here to stay.They aren’t simply a“here today, gone tomorrow”thing.But it’s also certain that physical books,which have been in production since the fifteenth century,are here to stay,too.31．The writer probably agrees that________.A．physical books will be no longer made soon B．lovers of

"Curious，she asked her grandmother about it."That is the tradition of our family，"her grandmother explained."Every day，for generations（世代），we complete one act of kindness and take it down.No matter

her kind act （4），from comforting a distressed stranger on the bus to organizing community clean﹣ups.One day，as she sat at a café，a young woman came to her."Are you Maya？"She asked politely.Maya

behaviours.Winston Churchill noted："We shape our buildings and then our buildings shape us."Buildings and the city environment have been found to influence our general emotion and wellbeing.Architects（建筑师）have often been focused on their imagination and design above how a space may influence its residents（居住者）.However，there are a number of architects moving in a new direction，interested in creating people﹣centred building designs.Research carried out by Colin Ellard of the University of Waterloo，Canada，has found that people are often strongly affected by building plex （复杂的）and interesting appearance design influences people much more positively than simple design.Many studies have shown the value of green space and woodland in a city environment and how they can help to reduce the stress that comes with city life.The visual （视觉的）complexity of green spaces plays into Ellard's theory that the human brain prefers complex and lively environment.Another study in Iceland in 2023 found that streets which vary because of their architecture were the most emotionally pleasant.This all leads to the idea that we want variation in our environments.Another research has shown that growing up in an city environment can double a person's chance of developing problems such as worry.It shows that the stress of city life is something that needs to be considered and new spaces should be designed with stress management and wellness in mind.It would be wrong to say style isn't important.We want things which look fantastic as well as work practically，but things can go wrong and influence us negatively if style becomes more important than the building itself.Architects who want to show their skills must consider the purpose of the building.For example，schools should look bright with open spaces，green areas and comfortable corners for reading and learning.No one wants a building to create bad feelings.If we can create spaces which appeal to residents，as well as achieving their purpose，then the end result is much more satisfying and much more likely to stand the test of time.Our cities are set to grow year on year with no end in sight，so we should make sure new development s are built more with people in mind.（1）What do you know about architects from the passage？A.They are running out of creativity.B.Their stress needs to be considered.C.They have to take tests from time to time.D.Their design starts to focus on human feelings.（2）The writer probably agrees that .A.there should be more buildings in green colour in citiesB.visually complex design is more likely to create stressC.it is a must to consider the building itself and its styleD.buildings with simple appearance bring us comfort（3）The words"appeal to"in the last paragraph are closest in meaning to .A.pleaseB.houseC.shapeD.upset（4）What is the writer's main purpose in writing this passage？A.To criticize architects for their great mistakes.B.To call for the people﹣centred design of buildings.C.To suggest how to make architectures emotionally pleasant.D.To stress the importance of architectures to a city environment.15．A 16﹣year﹣old boy named Li Tao lived in a small town in China.One day，while Li Tao was doing his science homework，he came up with a great idea.He worked out a way to make a new type of power supply（供应）for his town，which had a problem with its electricity supply.To make his idea come true，Li Tao began to experiment at home.He was so confident that nothing could stop him from inventing.He made and took apart many models.Even though he faced lots of challenges and failures，he didn't give up.He fixed his mistakes，changed his plans，and kept working hard.After two years of hard work，he finally succeeded.He made a small device（设备）that could change wind power into electrical power successfully.This was a new，environmentally﹣friendly way for his town's power problem.News about Li Tao's invention quickly spread around his school and town，and everyone really took pride in his achievement.The group of science﹣technology of the town decided to help him improve the invention.He was invited to give a speech to encourage other teenagers to learn more about science and be more creative in the Science and Technology Meeting.His story encourages teenagers that being young is not a barrier（阻碍）to achieve their dreams.Even a common teenager can do something amazing!（1）What was the problem of the town where Li Tao lived？A.Water pollution.B.Experiment device testing.C.Electricity supply.D.Wind power lightning protection.（2）When Li Tao faced challenges and failures，he .A.encouraged other teenagers to join himB.fixed his mistakes and kept working hardC.gave a speech and learnt more about scienceD.asked the group of science﹣technology for help（3）How did people feel after knowing Li Tao's invention？A.Excited.B.Proud.C.Confident.D.Surprised.16．We rely on our memory for sharing stories with friends or learning from our past experiences.Yet evidence shows that our memory isn't as consistent as we'd like to believe.There are countless reasons why tiny mistakes might happen each time we recall past events.And whenever these mistakes happen，they can have long﹣term effects on how we'll recall that memory in the future.Take storytelling for example.When we describe our memories to other people，we might ask ourselves whether it's important to get the facts straight，or whether we only want to make the listener laugh.And we might change the story's details depending on the listener's attitudes.It isn't only the message that changes，but sometimes it's also the memory itself.This is known as the"audience﹣tuning effect"，showing us how our memories can change automatically over time，as a product of how，when，and why we access them.In fact，sometimes simply the act of repeating a memory can be exactly what makes it easy to change.This is known as"retrieval﹣enhanced suggestibility".In a typical study of this effect，participants watched a short film，then took a memory test a few days later.But during the days between watching the film and taking the final test，two other things happened.First，half of the participants took a practice memory test.Second，all of the participants were given a description of the film to read，which contained some false details.Participants who took a practice memory test shortly before reading the false information were more likely to reproduce this false information inthe final memory test.Why might this be？One theory is that repeating our memories of past events can temporarily make those memories malleable.In other words，retrieving （找回）a memory might be a bit like taking ice﹣cream out of the freezer and leaving it in direct sunlight for a while.By the time our memory goes back into the freezer，it might have naturally become a little misshapen，especially if someone has influenced it purposely in the meantime.These findings lead us to wonder how much our most treasured memories have changed since the very first time we remembered them.Remembering is an act of storytelling，after all.And our memories are only ever as reliable as the most recent story we told ourselves.（1）The writer takes storytelling for example to prove that .A.it is impossible to change the listener's attitudesB.it is important to describe our memories directlyC.we can make other people laugh to y telling storiesD.we may change our memories according to the listener（2）What do you know about memory from the passage？A.Our memories can change our personalities.B.Our memories can correct mistakes on their own.C.We can take a practice memory test to strengthen our memories.D.We can reproduce the information while repeating our memories.（3）The word"malleable"in Paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to .A.reasonableB.valuableC.changeableD.controllable17．Clean electricity is the power of the future，but engineers are facing a big challenge.How can we store electricity to be used at times when the wind is not blowing and the sun is not shining？In some cases，the answer will be batteries；but in other cases，it could come from a variety of different solutions—starting with gravity.Gravity is the most abundant source of power on Earth.It's always been everywhere since the beginning of time.Nobody knew about it until around 1700，when Isaac Newton saw an apple fall from a tree in hisgarden.Newton asked himself the question："Why did that apple fall to the ground？" And he soon worked out the answer.Everything will fall to the ground if it can do so，because there is a massive force that pulls things towards the centre of the earth.Newton decided to call this force "gravity"，a word that then just meant "weight".Engineers have used gravity as a source of power for centuries，long before Newton first explained it.In particular，they used gravity to move water from one place to another to irrigate（灌溉）field s and bring water to cities.They knew that water would flow downhill，but never uphill，so they built structures to use the force of gravity most effectively.In 1907，engineers in Switzerland first used gravity for a new purpose：to store energy.They pumped（用泵抽送）water up a hill，where they stored it in a lake.Then when they needed more electricity，they let the water come back down the hill，driving electric turbines（涡轮机）as it fell.The idea was just so simple，and it is now used in many parts of the world.However，the problem is that "pumped storage" hydro schemes（抽水蓄能水电方案）can't be built just anywhere，as they need lots of water and big hills or mountains.Some experts believe that gravity systems are the cheapest way to store electricity.Gravity﹣stored electricity is maybe half the price of battery﹣stored electricity，but even so it is not cheap.In order to make gravity more effective，we would need to increase its force—and that，of course，is quite impossible.Yet gravity is not the only way of storing energy，and engineers are working on systems that store it using water pressure or compressed air...and even sand!Storage is one of the big scientific challenges of our time，as storage is the essential partner of wind power and solar power.We need clean electricity 24 hours a day，not just when the sun is shining or the wind is blowing.（1）The word "abundant" in Paragraph 2 probably means .A．expensiveB．environmentalC．famousD．plentiful（2）From the passage，we can know that .A．gravity systems are the cheapest way to store electricityB．"pumped storage" hydro schemes can be built on small hillsC．engineers in Switzerland first stored energy by using gravity creativelyD．experts have already made gravity more effective by increasing its force（3）Why does the author write this passage？A．To tell the story of finding gravity.B．To show the importance of gravity.C．To call on people to use clean electricity.D．To introduce a good way to store electricity.四．书面表达（共1小题）18．某英文网站正在开展以"突破自我，我拼过"为主题的征文活动。

introduced an interactive digital platform(数字化互动平台)that hosts a virtual copy of the Mogao Grottoes’Library Cave to the world.The platform was developed jointly by the Dunhuang Academy and the Chinese tech firm Tencent.It uses gaming technologies to show the historical scenes of the Library Cave in the digital world.The Library Cave in Mogao Grottoes was discovered in1900,with more than60,000 cultural relics dating from the4th century to the11th century unearthed.It was one of the most important archaeological discoveries in the20th century.On the platform,visitors can role-play and“time travel”to ancient dynasties and talk with eight historical figures.The public can enter the platform through the Digital Dunhuang website and its WeChat mini program.In the digital age,the model of“culture+technology”has been adopted to promote(促进)the development of Chinese culture.The digitalization rate of China’s precious cultural relics has been more than70percent,according to the2022China Digital Collection Industry Research Report released by iResearch.Institutions(机构)such as the Palace Museum have also launched online digital services of their own.Artificial intelligence(AI)technology allows the public to view the interior of the buildings through the Palace Museum’s WeChat mini program.The Ministry of Culture and Tourism has also encouraged the development and transformation(转型)of cultural intellectual property by digital means.China Central Television has created a series of digital collections with different Dunhuang themes,such as the Dunhuang divine deer Youyou.It was created based on the image of the nine-colored deer from Dunhuang murals.The public can see the divine deer on CCTV’s own digital platform.Digital collections cater to(迎合)the consumption habits of young people.They not only protect the intellectual property of the collections but also bring the public closer to China’s “excellent traditional culture”,noted

UK’s largest music education body,7out of every10children say they presently play a musical instrument. Whether this figure(数字)shows that most parents do believe the statement,or whether the potential benefits of music are hard to ignore(忽视).Ongoing research looks for suggestive evidence proving that musical training may actually strengthen the so-called“smart skills”.The relationship between music and memory has long been the subject of research.In the2003study by The Chinese University of Hong Kong were90boys between the ages of6 and15,half of whom had1to5years of musical training and half of whom had none at all. Each of them had a memory test,with the musically trained students recalling more words,C．To suggest that people learn a musical instrument.D．To remind that musicians are usually smart.五、阅读回答问题阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。

As the storytellers told wonderful stories, the audience (观众) laughed. Somewhere in the middle of the third story, I suddenly felt a rush of excitement inside me. "I love stories!I want to be a 13 !"Telling stories meant standing on a stage (舞台) in bright lights and talking to strangers. And public speaking was my greatest 14 . I must be out of my mind! I thought to myself. My memory isn't that great. What if I forget my story? I don't want to fail! But this kind of self-talk had no effect on me. I had never feltso 15 before that moment.So when we knew there would be a storytelling workshop, I signed up with my husband. I needed his 16 , as I was too shy to enter a room full of strangers by myself.I decided to tell a story on stage soon after the workshop. I wanted to 17 myself. The main reason for me to do this crazy thing was that I was sixty-six years old, and my memory was getting worse.I didn't like memorizing things, but the opportunity to make people laugh or touch people's hearts with heartwarming stories meant more to me. All I had to do was to 18 my fears and keep going.The first night I was scheduled (安排) to go on stage, my hands were cold and my heart 19 as I walked toward the stage. I felt very nervous. After a month of hard studying, I had imprinted my twenty-minute story into my memory. Once on stage, I fell easily into my story. I got lots of cheers from the audience after I finished telling it.My adventure began. I told stories every month. I also started a story circle for beginners, and we shared stories and the learning process together. After telling stories for a few months, my memory noticeably improved. Allthese 20 in my life came about when I listened to my heart.13.A. reader B. writer C. listener D. storyteller14.A. fear B. curiosity C. excitement D. confusion15.A. proud B. alive C. responsible D. lucky16.A. advice B. trust C. support D. instruction17.A. challenge B. protect C. introduce D. relax18.A. feel B. fight C. hide D. express19.A. ached B. broke C. warmed D. raced20.A. plans B. honors C. changes D. tasksAWhen Chandra went into Books 'n' More, she noticed that there was no one else in the bookstore. The last four or five times she had stopped in here, she had also been the only customer.That night, Chandra told her family about the situation at the bookstore. Her brother Pete said, "The bookstore needs more people. How about starting a book club? People could meet in the store to discuss a book they've all read. If they buy it at the store, they'll receive a discount (折扣).""That's great!" Chandra said excitedly. "How about having some writers come and do a book signing? I even have an idea for the first writer. Mr. Fletcher, my math teacher, writes children's books. I'm sure he would be willing to help. I could put up fliers (传单) about the event at my school."The next day, Chandra shared her thoughts with Mrs. Lee, the bookstore owner. Mrs. Lee seemed unsure at first, but by the time Chandra finished, she was smiling. "I'll try your ideas, but I need some help. Someone will have to lead the book club discussions. Also, I'll need help advertising these events because I've never been good at such things."Chandra promised that she would help. She asked Mr. Fletcher if he would read and sign some of his books at Books 'n' More, and he happily agreed. A date was chosen, and Chandra threw herself into the preparations. She personally invited all her friends, the other teachers, and even the school headmaster.Finally, everything was ready for the big night. Mrs. Lee opened the event. "Before I introduce tonight's writer, I must thank a young lady named Chandra Phillips. This exciting evening was mostly managed by her. If she were a little older, I would have her as my advertising director," said Mrs. Lee. The crowd laughed and clapped (鼓掌). As Mr. Fletcher began to read from his latest book, Mrs. Lee took a seat next to Chandra."Could I really work here someday?" Chandra asked. Mrs. Lee nodded with a smile. Chandra tried to listen to Mr. Fletcher, but her mind swam with even more ways to help Books 'n' More be successful. After all, she had to protect her future job!21.To attract more people to the bookstore, Chandra suggested ________.A. offering customers discountsB. holding a book signing eventC. giving out fliers in the streetsD. advertising the bookstore online22.Which words can best describe Chandra?A. Careful and strict.B. Humorous and outgoing.C. Helpful and creative.D. Strong-minded and patient.23.In Paragraph 6, the crowd's laughter and clapping showed that they ________.A. recognized Chandra's effortsB. enjoyed Mr. Fletcher's readingC. felt happy for Mrs. Lee's successD. were surprised at Chandra's future roleBWhy do people fall for bad information? Scientists are trying to find that out. They are also trying to find out what we can do about it.People on social media sometimes share questionable claims (言论). Maybe they think the claim is surprising or interesting. But how the claim is presented can influence how many people believe it.People are likely to think that video is the most believable, noted S. Shyam Sundar. He works at Pennsylvania State University. Sundar and his team showed fake (假的) news stories to 180 people. One fake story claimed plastic was used to make rice. One version (版本) of the rice story was sent as text only. One version was a sound recording. The third had a video. It showed a man feeding plastic sheets into a machine. The tested people graded the video story as the most believable."Seeing is believing. People are more likely to accept misinformation when they see something in a video," Sundar said. That's especially true with the rise of deepfake technologies, which create fake but visually (视觉上) believable videos.Another big problem with fake news is how easily it gets into our brains. We often find claims believable that go along with the values we hold. Some people are unlikely to question things that fit with what they already believe. Why? Because our values can influence how we process information.So how can we slow the spread of fake news? It might just require getting people to stop and think. Two scientists, Gordon Pennycook and David Rand, worked together on a study. They showed both real news headlines and fake ones to 3,500 people. They tested these people's analytical reasoning (分析推理). People who scored higher on the analytical tests were less likely to mistake fake news headlines as being correct. In other words, lazy thinking helps drive someone's acceptance of fake news.When we recognize something untrue, we should debunk (揭穿) it. Researchers have some tips:· Check the information from trustworthy sources (来源). Look at different sources to see if they agree.· Once you correct misinformation with a true fact, explain why the misinformation is wrong.· Speak up as soon as possible when you see misinformation being shared on social media.Not paying attention can help fake news spread. Fortunately, there's a simple solution — stop shutting off our brains so much. By thinking carefully and sharing real information, we can help everyone stay informed with facts.24.The purpose of Sundar and his team's study is to find out ________.A. what ways can be used to spread newsB. how fake news spreads through different mediaC. what kind of people are likely to believe fake newsD. how the presentation of news influences its believability25.What can we learn from the passage?A. People are likely to believe information that matches their values.B. Debanking bad information depends heavily on technology.C. The brain has a weak ability to recognize misinformation.D. Lazy thinkers often slow down the spread of fake news.26.What is the passage mainly about?A. The causes of fake news and its bad influences.B. The spread of fake news and people's complaints about it.C. The reasons for believing fake news and ways to deal with it.D. The problems caused by fake news and the necessity to recognize it.CWe live in a society that judges our happiness by how much we have achieved and how successful we are. We are often told, "Work hard, become successful, and then you'll be happy." Is it true?Can Success Bring Happiness?Happiness helps you get success; it's not the other way around. Studies show happier people are more likely to be successful, but successful people are predictably not more cheerful. When you are happier, you feel more hopeful, thankful, and strong-minded, which are important for success. As a result, you have a better chance of getting better jobs and even building stronger relationships.Success can cause a short-term increase in happiness, but it cannot guarantee a lasting one. Shortly after achieving success, you return to your usual level of happiness. Moreover, depending on success for happiness often adds pressure, stress and negativity to every part of our lives. In conclusion, chasing (追求) happiness and well-being is better than running after success.△Positive psychology says that happiness is both how good we feel in the present moment and how good we feel when we look at our lived lives. Trying to lead a happy life is not always about refusing our negative emotions or acting as if we feel happy all the time. We all experience difficult periods, and it's natural for us to feel sad, angry, and other negative emotions. Happiness is about being able to embrace (接受) the good times, but it's also about dealing with the unavoidable bad times.Is Happiness Being Satisfied With What You Have?Does the thought of "not having enough" trouble you all the time? Are you always chasing something bigger and better? At the end of the day, that kind of chase can undoubtedly leave anyone empty and tired. And in that process, you are missing out on getting happiness from plenty of things you have right now. Instead of focusing on getting more, you need to focus on all you have in your life at the present moment. When you start sharing what you have, you find your happiness continuously increasing.Sure, you can work hard for success. But success won't necessarily lead to happiness. True happiness is in the climb itself. So, focus on being happy right now. Be proud of where you are in life and who you are. Be happy first, and embrace the journey to success. Then you'll be able to achieve more and perform better in many areas of your life, and you'll also enjoy the journey to your goals.27.The word "guarantee" in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to ________.A. influenceB. requireC. promiseD. prevent28.Which of the following would be the best heading for Paragraph 4?A. When Do You Feel Truly Happy?B. What Does Happiness Really Mean to You?C. How Can You Fully Embrace Your Happiness?D. Why Is Refusing Negative Emotions Key to Happiness?29.The writer probably agrees that ________.A. the more you achieve, the happier you will beB. one can't succeed without giving up some happinessC. chasing great achievements is necessary for happinessD. true happiness comes from enjoying the journey to success30.What is the writer's main purpose in writing this passage?A. To help people balance happiness and success.B. To explain why success brings happiness to people.C. To stress the importance of both happiness and success.D. To guide people to value happiness above achieving success.四、任务型阅读-简答：本大题共1小题，共10分。
