Nowadays many students have formed the habit of wasting things．For example, some leave the lights on in the daytime, or let water running after washing．
In my opinion, the above bad habits will have a bad influence on our character training．They not only increase our cost at school and add financial burden to our parents, but also waste the limited resources．
Therefore, it's high time that we dealt with this problem．And above all, we should start with ourselves and take the lead in reducing the waste．
[片段1]
The rain was pouring down, and Mary was shivering in her thin coat．She had been walking for hours, trying to find her way home．But every turn she took seemed to lead her further into the unknown．Her heart was filled with fear and confusion．Just as she was about to give up hope, she saw a small cottage in the distance．With a glimmer of hope, she rushed towards it, only to find the door locked．Tears streamed down her face as she slumped against the door, feeling defeated．
雨傾盆而下，瑪麗穿著單薄的外套瑟瑟發抖。她已經走了好幾個小時，試圖找到回家的路。但她轉的每一個彎似乎都將她進一步帶到了未知的地方。她的心中充滿了恐懼和困惑。就在她即將放棄希望的時候，她看到遠處有一間小木屋。懷著一線希望，她沖向它，卻發現門是鎖著的。淚水順著她的臉頰流下來，她癱倒在門邊，感到很挫敗。
[片段2]
Jack had always dreamed of becoming a famous musician．He spent countless hours practicing his guitar, sacrificing his social life and sleep．However, his parents strongly opposed his choice, insisting that he focus on getting a stable job．One day, Jack received an invitation to perform at a prestigious music event．He was overjoyed but knew that his parents would not be happy．When he broke the news to them, a fierce argument ensued．His parents accused him of being irresponsible, while he accused them of not understanding his passion．
杰克一直夢想成為一名著名的音樂家。他花費了無數個小時練習吉他，犧牲了自己的社交生活和睡眠時間。然而，他的父母強烈反對他的選擇，堅持要他專注于找一份穩定的工作。有一天，杰克收到了在一個著名音樂活動中表演的邀請。他欣喜若狂，但知道他的父母會不高興。當他把這個消息告訴他們時，一場激烈的爭論隨之而來。他的父母指責他不負責任，而他指責他們不理解他的熱情。

閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的A、B、C、D四個選項中選出最佳選項。
A
Architectural Wonders Inspired by Nature
Atomium: Brussels
Originally constructed for the 1958 World's Fair, or Expo 58, this weird(古怪的) building features nine interconnected spheres(球體) measuring 335 feet high．Engineer Andre Waterkeyn and architects Andre and Jean Polak modeled it after an iron crystal enlarged 165 billion times to represent faith in scientific progress．Today the interior is home to a museum and several temporary exhibits．
The Cube Houses: Rotterdam
Despite all the hard angles and straight lines, architect Piet Blom actually took inspiration from a forest of trees when designing these Dutch houses back in 1977．Each bright yellow cube is tilted(傾斜的) on its side by 45 degrees and anchored to a hexagon-shaped pylon (六邊形塔架), representing a tree．The entrance to each three-level house lies inside the concrete “trunk” that contains a staircase．
Taipei 101: Taipei
Standing at 1，671 feet tall, this 101-story skyscraper was the tallest building in the world when it opened in Taipei's modern Xinyi District in 2004．Renowned architect C．Y．Lee modeled it after a bamboo stalk, and its repetitive sections are full of symbolism．There are a total of eight parts comprised of eight floors each—a lucky number in Chinese culture．
Helix Bridge: Singapore
An international team, assembled from Architects 61 in Singapore, designed this footbridge stretching over Marina Bay, linking the famous hotel and shopping center with the ArtScience Museum and Gardens by the Bay．The inspiration comes from the double helix(螺旋的) structure of a DNA molecule．Opened in 2010, the 919-foot long curved structure has five viewing platforms, giving pedestrians spectacular views of the skyline from across the waterfront．

We have two daughters: Kirsten is seven years old and Kelly is four．Last Sunday evening, we invited some people home for dinner．I dressed them nicely for the party, and told them that their job was to join me in answering the door when the bell rang．I would introduce them to the guests, and then they would take the guests' coats upstairs and put them on the bed in the second bedroom．
The guests arrived．I introduced my two daughters to each of them．The adults were nice and kind and said how lucky we were to have such good kids．
Each of the guests made a particular fuss over Kelly, the younger one, admiring her dress, her hair and her smile．They said she was a remarkable girl to be carrying coats upstairs at her age．
I thought to myself that we adults usually make a big “to do” over the younger child because he/she is the one who seems more easily to be hurt．We do it with the best intention．
But we seldom think of how it might affect the other child．I was a little worried that Kirsten would feel she was being outshone．I was about to serve dinner when I realized that she had been missing for twenty minutes．I ran upstairs and found her in the bedroom, crying．
I said, “What are you doing, my dear？”
She turned to me with a sad expression and said, “Mommy, why don't people like me the way they like my sister Is it because I'm not pretty Is that why they don't say nice things about me？”
I tried to explain to her, kissing and hugging her to make her feel better．
Now, whenever I visit a friend's home, I make a point of speaking to the elder child first．

I've never had a great sense of direction．And I often wander into shops and, upon coming back out, can't remember which way I've come from—left or right Many people are like me, and why do some constantly have no idea where they are
The hippocampus(海馬體) is a region of the brain associated with memory and involved in a sense of direction．And a nearby region has also been associated with the sense of direction．There are four known types of navigation-related neurons(神經元), found in these regions：place cells, grid cells, border cells and head direction cells．
In short, you can think of place cells as an internal cognitive(認知的) map; they identify where you are．Grid cells are like a GPS system in our brain; they tell us about the relationship of this place to other places we've been to．Border cells respond to the presence of environmental boundaries at a specific direction and distance from us．Lastly, head direction cells are activated when our head faces a specific direction．These cells will fire electrical impulses when we enter familiar locations, with each group of cells relating to a specific place．
Our reliance on GPS and smartphones may have decreased the ability to use our internal maps．Older adults who regularly used GPS had less activity in their hippocampus, compared with those who did not use GPS．They also performed slightly worse in a cognition test．In contrast, a study involving London taxi drivers found they had significantly larger hippocampus than ordinary people．
You can improve your way-finding ability specifically by practicing the skill, according to Aziz, PhD of neurology at Temple University School of Medicine．“The more you get out and go to places, the better，” he says．Physical exercise improves the blood flow to the brain, while mental exercise, such as doing puzzles or learning a new language, stimulates the development of new nerve cells and connections in your brain．

Imagine you need milk, so you go to the grocery store to pick some up, only to find there are dozens of options．These days, you have to make a decision on not only the percentage of fat you want, but also what source you want your milk to be coming from: cows, soybeans...You have no idea what milk to pick．There are so many choices that you are confused．
This phenomenon is known as the paradox(悖論) of choice and it is becoming a concern in the modern world, where more and more options are becoming easily available to us．While we might believe that being presented with multiple options actually makes it easier to choose one that we are happy with, and thus increases consumer satisfaction, having too many options actually requires more effort to make a decision and can leave us feeling unsatisfied with our choice．
The idea was popularized by American psychologist Barry Schwartz when he published his book, The Paradox of Choice: Why More Is Less．Schwartz, who has long studied the ways in which economics and psychology intersect(交叉), became interested in seeing the way that choices were affecting the happiness of citizens in Western societies．He identified that the range of choices that we have available to us these days is far greater than that people had in the past; however, consumer satisfaction has not increased as much as traditional economics theories might expect．
Schwartz identified that the paradox of choice carries the most consequences for people that are maximizers．Maximizers, unlike satisficers, are concerned with making the best choice instead of simply making a choice that they are happy with．When there are many options available to maximizers, it becomes harder for them to determine which is the best, which can cause them to feel a great deal of regret after they have made a choice．
Instead of believing that freedom of choice is unlimited, Schwartz advocates that the role of psychology and behavioral economics should be to find the kind of limitations on freedom that can lead to the greatest level of happiness within society．
【語篇解讀】　本文是一篇議論文。 文章主要介紹了“選擇悖論”這一現象，即過多的選擇會讓人們感到困惑和不滿，從而降低消費者的滿意度。文章還介紹了“最大化者”和“滿足者”的區別以及心理學和行為經濟學在解決這一問題中的作用。
12．What's the author's purpose of mentioning buying milk in paragraph 1
A．To lead in the topic．
B．To draw a conclusion．
C．To show that we have more choices when shopping．
D．To indicate that people pay greater attention to health when shopping．
√
A　[推理判斷題。根據第一段的“Imagine you need milk, so you go to the grocery store to pick some up, only to find there are dozens of options．”以及“You have no idea what milk to pick．There are so many choices that you are confused．”可知，購物時牛奶品類眾多，以至于我們會很難做出決策。這是下文“選擇悖論”這一現象的一個案例。由此可推知，文章第一段提到買牛奶就是為了引出文章的話題。故選A。]
13．What does the paradox of choice suggest
A．More options mean less satisfaction．
B．Consumer satisfaction has greatly increased．
C．People are happy with more choices．
D．Modern people are happier than their ancestors．
√
A　[推理判斷題。根據第二段的“While we might believe that being presented with multiple options actually makes it easier to choose one that we are happy with, and thus increases consumer satisfaction, having too many options actually requires more effort to make a decision and can leave us feeling unsatisfied with our choice．”可知，選擇太多實際上需要付出更多的努力才能做出決定，這會讓我們對自己的選擇感到不滿意。由此可推知，更多的選擇意味著更少的滿足感。故選A。]
14．What can be learned about satisficers
A．They aim for the very best．
B．They tend to follow their feelings．
C．They often regret their decisions．
D．They have trouble making a decision．
√
B　[推理判斷題。根據第四段的“Maximizers, unlike satisficers, are concerned with making the best choice instead of simply making a choice that they are happy with．”可推知，滿足者跟隨自己的感覺，不糾結于必須做出“最好的”決定。故選B。]
15．What does Schwartz suggest people do
A．Hold on to their beliefs． B．Accept their own behavior．
C．Give up freedom． D．Limit their own choices．
√
D　[細節理解題。根據最后一段“Instead of believing that freedom of choice is unlimited, Schwartz advocates that the role of psychology and behavioral economics should be to find the kind of limitations on freedom that can lead to the greatest level of happiness within society．”可知，施瓦茨建議人們限制自己的選擇。故選D。]

36．began　[考查時態。由前面的found可知，句子描述過去的事情，時態用一般過去時，空格處用過去式。故填began。]
37．As　[考查非限制性定語從句。空格處引導的是非限制性定語從句，從句中缺少賓語，句子表示“正如你想象的一樣”，因此空格處用as引導非限制性定語從句，且位于句首，單詞首字母大寫。故填As。]
38．to recreate　[考查非謂語動詞。make an attempt to do sth．是固定短語，意為“嘗試做某事”，因此空格處是不定式to recreate。故填to recreate。]
39．was established　[考查時態、語態和主謂一致。團隊是被成立，由in 2006可知，句子描述過去的事情，因此空格處用一般過去時的被動語態，且主語His early team是單數，因此空格處是was established。故填was established。]
40．exhibitions　[考查名詞復數。根據語境可知，句子表示“團隊與中國國家博物館、山東博物館等知名機構合作，參加了許多中國古代服飾的展覽”，空前有many，且exhibition為可數名詞，空格處用復數。故填exhibitions。]
41．promoting　[考查非謂語動詞。in是介詞，其后跟動詞-ing形式作賓語，因此空格處是promoting。故填promoting。]
42．a　[考查冠詞。manner是可數名詞的單數形式，表泛指，前面要加不定冠詞，且more是發音以輔音音素開頭的單詞，因此用不定冠詞a。故填a。]
43．significance　[考查詞性轉換。空前有its，空格處用名詞，significant的名詞形式是significance，意為“意義”，是不可數名詞。故填significance。]
44．biggest　[考查形容詞最高級。根據語境可知，句子表示“他最大的夢想是通過將這些服裝重新詮釋和改造成適合現代社會的創意設計來分享這些服裝的美”，空格處意為“最大的”，用最高級形式biggest。故填biggest。]
45．into　[考查介詞。transform...into...是固定短語，意為“把……轉換為……”，因此空格處是介詞into。故填into。]

閱讀下面材料，根據其內容和所給段落開頭語續寫兩段，使之構成一篇完整的短文。
I had been going through some difficult times not so long ago dealing with the pressures of growing up and trying to communicate with my parents, particularly my mother．Our relationship had suffered because of this．When I got angry, it seemed like we would end up fighting with each other and not talk about what we were really feeling．Luckily, I have solved those problems now after we had a heart-to-heart “talk”．
A while back I ran away from home so that I could be far enough away to cool down．I stayed away for many hours, well into the night, before I finally decided to return home．When I walked through the front door, I immediately saw all the pain, anger and disappointment on my parents' faces, especially my mother's．For days to come, my mom and I experienced a lot of suffering．Everything we did or said was filled with tension until we were unable to control our feelings．We knew we badly needed to have a talk．We agreed to have breakfast together the next morning．That morning will remain fresh in my memory forever．It was a turning point．
We decided to go to a local café．On our way to the table, I noticed that my mother had two notebooks and some pens．I asked her what they were for．She explained to me that sometimes it was easier to write down our feelings rather than try to talk about them．She then handed me one notebook and she kept the other．The rules for that talk were that she would pick a topic, and we would write down our feelings, and then exchange our notebooks．It could be as long or as short as we wanted．
注意：1．續寫詞數應為150左右；
2．請按如下格式作答。
Our first topic was: “Why I am so angry．”_________________

[參考范文]
Our first topic was: “Why I am so angry．” I wrote a half page, and my mom filled up nearly three pages．I watched tears roll down her face as she wrote．I never realized anyone could hide so much anger．It could have been because I never paid much attention to that, either．Sometimes we think we are the only ones with problems, but I was reminded that morning that other people can be hurting just as much．
We exchanged our notebooks and read the words．As soon as I started reading my mother's words, I began to cry and so did she．Amazingly enough, it felt like all my anger slowly faded．Our talk helped me realize so many things I had never thought of before, not only about anger but also about love．We knew we loved each other dearly．Since then, our notebooks have been a safe place to express it．Now, we live a healthy life full of peace and love．
