文章大意:本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了两个好朋友之间的友谊的故事。

In the old-fashioned town of Willowbrook, two friends named Emma and Liam shared an intimate bond. They were inseparable and spent every moment together, laughing, exploring, and creating unforgettable memories.

One cold winter morning, as the first snowflakes gently fell from the sky, Emma woke up with a stuffy nose and a sore throat. She tried to brave it and get ready for school, but her body felt weak and achy. Unwillingly, she called Liam to let him know she couldn’t make it to school that day.

Liam was concerned when he heard the tiredness in Emma’s voice. “Don’t worry, Em. I’ll take care of everything at school for you,” he assured her. Feeling grateful for Liam’s understanding, Emma forced a smile and replied, “Thank you, Liam. You’re the best friend anyone could ask for.”

After school, Liam hurried to Emma’s house, carrying a meal he had prepared for her. He knocked on the door, and Emma’s mother welcomed him with a warm smile. “Oh, Liam, you’re such a thoughtful friend,” she said.

“I brought some soup and tea for Emma. I hope it will make her feel better,” Liam replied, some concern in his eyes. Entering Emma’s room, Liam found her curled up under a blanket, looking pale but relieved to see him. “Hey, I brought some comfort food to cheer you up,” he said, setting the food on her bedside table.

Emma’s eyes lit up, and she smiled weakly. “You didn’t have to, but thank you. This means the world to me,” she whispered. Sitting by her side, Liam kept her company, chatting softly and making her laugh despite her illness. The warmth of their friendship enveloped the room, bringing a feeling of comfort to Emma’s tired soul.

As Emma regained her strength, she realized just how lucky she was to have a friend like Liam. His unwavering presence and kindness had made her recovery easier and brighter. Their friendship grew stronger with each passing day, and from that moment on, they knew they would be there for each other through thick and thin.

文章大意:这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了太空探索中的安全问题。

At the time of writing this, more than 600 people have gone to space. The first person to do it was the Soviet astronaut Yuri Gagarin, in 1961. Most of the people that have achieved the dream of flying to outer space have been astronauts that form part of space agencies such as NASA although a few have gone as part of space tourism trips.

But space exploration can be a risky profession. We have all heard about unfortunate accidents like that of the Apollo 1 training crew or the Space Shuttle Challenger. To date, there have been 188 accidents related to space flights. Fortunately, the number of accidents has greatly been reduced since the 1980s as space agencies have gotten better at conducting safety protocols (协议).

With all those incidents, it is natural to wonder if at some point any astronauts have been lost in space. Are there any dead bodies in space? The short answer is no. There are no dead bodies in space. Most of the spaceflight-related accidents have happened on land or before reaching the line that we consider space. This limit is called the Kármán line and is 100 kilometres (62 miles) above sea level.

There have been a few cases of spacecraft that have been “lost in space”. For example, the Apollo 10 released the descent (下降) module while they were orbiting the Moon. The module did not have any astronauts inside and was “lost” although it was released in such a way that it would go into orbit around the Sun. The module was located in 2019 using a telescope. As for other types of accidents, there have been, cases of satellites that have collided (碰撞) or been hit by something. But those are unmanned and they usually fall into Earth and are disintegrated from the heat as they enter the atmosphere.

In short, there are no human bodies lost in space. Most spaceflight-related accidents that involved people have happened while still on Earth.

8. What can we learn from the text?
A.Yuri Gagarin was a pioneer in space trips.
B.Most people flew to space mainly for travel.
C.Human exploration for space began in the 1980s.
D.About 30% astronauts suffered from space accidents.
9. What has reduced the number of space flight-related accidents?
A.More advanced technology.B.Stronger safety measures.
C.Stricter limits to space flights.D.More financial support.
10. Why is Paragraph 4 mentioned?
A.To prove space exploration is becoming risky.
B.To add some background information for space.
C.To further explain no astronauts died in space.
D.To introduce more space flight-related accidents.
11. Which magazine is the text most probably taken from?
A.Space CelebritiesB.Popular Science
C.Space SafetyD.Advanced Science

文章大意:这是一篇说明文。文章主要解释了什么是防御性悲观主义(DP)以及防御性悲观主义给人们带来的影响。

There is a benefit in acknowledging the fact that our brains are born with a negativity preference that serves to protect us from potential harm. We would not have lasted very long as a species if our ancestors had kept optimistic in the face of a charging tiger rather than thinking the worst and allowing the natural response of fight-or-flight to kick in.

The psychological technique of using a negative outlook for personal growth is known as defensive pessimism (DP). Rather than forcing oneself to adopt a positive mindset, DP focuses on preparing for worst cases, thereby reducing anxiety. Let’s face it: Telling an anxious mind not to worry is as useless as trying not to get wet in a rainstorm by thinking sunny thoughts; better to take shelter. Many people have used this technique in their daily lives without giving it a name. COVID-19 gave us all a chance to practice DP as we look precautions to decrease our chances of becoming infected.

This psychological mind trick is not without its drawbacks. Applied too often, life can become a series of setbacks, only taking discomfort in the fact that one’s prediction of the worst case came true. Personal relationships may also suffer, as the optimists in one’s life grow weary of the glass always being half-empty and will, at times, take to ironically singing “Don’t worry, be happy” as payback.

There is likely to be a day when the glass-half-empty/half-full debate is replaced by the realization that optimism and pessimism don’t oppose each other, they support each other. and trying to have one without the other is like trying to have a one-sided coin.

12. What would defensive pessimists do in wet weather?
A.Picture sunny days.B.Open an umbrella.
C.Feel the rainstorm.D.Run through the rain.
13. The example of “COVID-19” in paragraph 2 is used to _________.
A.make a comparisonB.propose an argument
C.introduce a topicD.clarify a concept
14. Which of the following may a defensive pessimist believe?
A.Whatever will be, will be.B.Every cloud has a silver lining
C.Don’t put all your eggs in one basket.D.The glass is half full not half empty.
15. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A.In defense of pessimismB.The exploration of psychology
C.Pessimism: a one-sided coinD.Negativity: tricky in psychology
