When youre having a difficult conversation with your parents or friends, accusatory words like those can stop a discussion. As soon as one feels attacked, the d
2、efensive (防御的) walls come up, and real communication becomes all but impossible. We focus on the other persons behavior first, without spending time thinking about and telling why were feeling hurt. Here lie the differences between “I” and “you” statements.An “I-statement” is a sentence beginning wi
3、th the word “I” that tells another person how you are feeling in a clear way. For example, you might say, “I feel.” or “I become nervous when.” I-statements are a powerful tool to help you express your feelings to someone else without blaming (责怪) others. “You-statements,” such as those listed above
4、, are statements that begin with the word “you”, pointing out what other people have done wrong. These statements often mean that the listener is responsible for something.Why are I-statements important? When you start a conversation by talking about the other persons actions, youre sending the mess
5、age that theyre the problem. For most people, this immediately leads to them becoming defensive and trying to throw blame back onto you. However, starting a sentence with I helps us talk about difficult feelings and how the problem is affecting us, and stops other people feeling blamed. This can be
6、seen in the case when you feel left out. Instead of saying “You always leave me out”, you can say “I feel hurt when Im not invited because it feels like Im not welcome”. With this I-statement, youre being honest about your feelings, but youre not presenting them as something the other person did to
7、you. As a result, the listener tends to experience this as more friendly, opening the possibility of further conversation and hope for a solution.Its a simple change, but by being a little more careful of how you express yourself, you may find people are more likely to positively listen to you and u

11、of AI. A March 2023 report from Goldman Sachs showed that AI could do a quarter of the work done by humans. Across the European Union and the US, the report further notes that 300 million jobs could be lost to automation (自动化). Thankfully, its not all bad news. The experts also add that there are st
12、ill things AI cannot do. These tasks have clear human qualities (特征), like emotional intelligence (情商) and creative thinking. “I think there are generally three kinds of jobs that are going to be safe,” says Martin Ford, writer of Rule of the Robots: How Artificial Intelligence Will Trans form Every
13、thing. “The first would be jobs that are creative enough to come up with new ideas and build something new.”The second is jobs that require complicated interpersonal relationships. Ford points to nurses, businessmen and reporters. “These are jobs,” he says, “where you need a very deep understanding
14、of people. I think itll be a long time before AI has the ability to interact (交流) in the kinds of ways that really build relationships.”“The third safe one,” says Ford, “is jobs that really require lots of mobility (机动性) and dexterity (灵活性) and problem-solving ability in unpredictable environments.
15、These are the kinds of jobs where youre dealing with a new situation all the time, so they are probably the hardest of anything to automate.”“Its important to note,” says Ford, “that a higher education or a high-paying position is not a protection against AI takeover. In short, looking for roles in

They walked in and made straight for the sofa to lie down. Aged 10 and 12, they pulled out their smart phones and started gaming. It saddens me to watch them,
20、 and so many other kids today, see gaming as play. When I was a kid, I knew how to play. When I wanted a metal pedal car (踏板车) like some of my rich friends, my father made me one out of wood. At first, I was ashamed of the homemade toy. But I soon began to like it when my friends all wanted a ride.
21、Dad also built a huge playhouse and several tree houses. When I was older, he made me a high stand. Dad just loved building things or he really, loved me, or maybe a little of both. In my neighborhood we didnt have much to play with. For fun, we had to get creative. We put up tents in the backyard a
22、nd camped out. At night, we looked for adventures on the streets. We once went on a week-long bike trip to Lake Huron (its 220 kilometers away). My grandchildren have no idea how much fun these activities can be. That Sunday night, after dinner, I decided to take them outside to show them something
23、“different”. The first response (反应) was, “Why did we have to put our shoes on and go outside?” “Because I wanted to show you something,” I said and picked up my frisbee (飞盘). “I thought we could go outside and throw the frisbee around.”I got a slow and unwilling “Sure” for my efforts. With some fur
24、ther unwillingness, we walked out into the street and began throwing the frisbee back and forth badly. “Bend (使弯曲) your wrist (手腕),” I instructed helpfully. Slowly, we got the hang of it and hit the neighbors car only three times. Its amazing how much a frisbee hurts when your fingers are cold, but
25、we were making progress. My grandson found three excuses to go inside, Each time, though, his grandma kicked him back out. We played until the neighbor came to check on his car. It was a great success, I think, but alas, you cannot win a war by winning just one battle.9Which of the following is true
26、 according to the passage?AThe writers friends didnt like his toys at all.BThe writers father bought him many toys to play with.CThe writer and his friends created many exciting activities.DThe writer liked his fathers toys very much for the first sight.10Which is the right order according to the pa

This may explain why this animal has done so well in cities. Today, many of these birds live closely alongside humans. They are often found hanging around picn
31、ics in public parks.“Seagull numbers are increasing in many towns. However, little is known about seagulls actions in towns,” said zoologist Madeleine Goumas.Earlier research by Goumas and her partners found that seagulls might be able to read human actions. In one experiment, they could be driven a
32、way from a picnic table simply by eye contact with the humans at the table. But there wasnt enough evidence to prove this ability in this kind of bird.Now, researchers have discovered more proof that seagulls looking for food in cities follow guidance from their human neighbors. In an experiment, sc
33、ientists covered food under two overturned baskets near dozens of seagulls. The baskets were then taken away at the same time to show a wrapped (带包装的) pancake. One of the scientists then picked up one of the pancakes and acted as if she was eating it. About 20 seconds later, she put it back on the g
34、round. Of the 38 seagulls tested, 24 pecked (啄) at one of the pancakes. Nearly 80 percent chose the one that had been picked up by the human. “This shows that human touch draws the attention of seagulls. Touched food is more attractive to them than food left untouched,” the authors wrote.To see if h
35、umans alone are enough to draw seagulls to a thing, the team repeated the experiment. This time they used two sponges (海绵) instead of pancakes. The seagulls were not so easily fooled. Most of the birds came close to the sponges without pecking at them. The team is not sure whether the seagulls were
36、able to tell the difference between the food and the sponges. Goumas said: “The different results may be because of the wrapping. The birds may understand that things in shiny plastic wrapping are more likely to be food connected.”14Why did seagulls often stay around picnics?AThey can have a good re
37、st.BThey can find the food they like.CThey love flying in public parks.DThey want to know more about humans15What did Goumas find in her earlier research?AHumans are rude to seagulls.BHumans can control seagulls.CSeagulls like to stay at picnic tables.DSeagulls might understand human actions.16What
38、can we infer from the last two paragraphs?ATouched food is more attractive to seagulls.BSponges are not covered with shiny wrapping.CSeagulls can tell whether the food is delicious.DScientists have done the experiment many times.17Whats the purpose of the passage?ATo call on people to protect seagul
39、ls in public parks.BTo describe the actions of seagulls alongside human.CTo present findings from research on seagulls behavior.DTo discuss the relationship between humans and seagulls.（2024浙江舟山二模）Music helps us exercise but why is it possible? There are two main reasons. The first is simple: Music
40、distract us. When we listen to a song we like, our brain pays attention to the music, so our body might not feel tired immediately, and we exercise a little longer.Music also motivates (激励) us. When we hear dance music, for example, we naturally start to move to the beat. A cheerful song makes us fe
41、el happier. This gives us energy and helps us exercise longer. Music with a quick beat is good for exercising. But the music shouldnt be too fast. Generally, songs with 120140 beats per minute (BPM) are the best.A new study by cognitive scientist Tom Fritz suggests that this is only part of the expl
42、anation, however. In an experiment, Fritz put 61 people in small groups. They all then exercised twice. One time, each group worked out while listening to music for six minutes. Another time they exercised for six minutes on special Jymmin machines. Using these machines, each group made music as the
43、y moved. At the end, 53 of the 61 people agreed that they felt less tired when they exercised on the Jymmin machines. When we exercise and make music, especially with other people, working out seems to be easier.How does Fritz explain this? Maybe people did better on the Jymmin machines because they
44、 had more control, he says. People created the beat and could make it go faster or slower. Also, the activity was social. Each group was making music together and having fun. Fritz believes that Jymmin exercise may have other advantages, too. He wants to find out if it can help with more serious con
45、ditions. For example, it may even be a good way to treat depression (抑郁症).18What does the underlined word “distract” mean in Paragraph 1?Adevelop ones interestBchange ones mindCinfluence ones healthDturn ones attention19According to Paragraph 2, which of the following might be the best song for exer
46、cise?A“Lose Yourself” (86 BPM).B“Stronger” (116 BPM).C“On the Floor” (130 BPM).D“Locked out of Heaven” (144 BPM).20Paragraphs 3 and 4 are mainly about the advantages of _ while exercising.Acreating musicBrecording musicClistening to musicDwatching music videos21What could be the best title for the p

It is believed that since the 1950s, as much as 15% of Alaskas land area has disappeared. How can a whole Alaska be disappearing? The pro
48、blem is that Alaskas glaciers are melting (融化). The state has more than 100,000 glaciers. These glaciers account for about 75,000 square kilometers, or 5% of the states area.According to a recent report by the US Geological Survey, 99% percent of Alaskas glaciers are diminishing (减少). This diminishing seems mainly because of the increase in global temperatures. Since the 1960s, the average year-round temp
