A few minutes before the session ended, there was a shooting contest. Only a few kids were
18、 chosen to compete, and my son was not one of them. The contest winners received prizes and recognition, as did a few kids chosen as “all-stars” for effort, skill and participation. Again, my son was not selected.My son was struggling to deal with his disappointment.At the camp, he played a basketba
19、ll game with kids he had never met, guarded them fiercely and took shots easily against them. As his mom, I was thrilled that he spent the day without his iPad. All in all, the day felt wonderful. The last thing I wanted was for these awards to ruin the experience.I decided to simplify it for him. I
20、 did the math and figured out the shooting contest and awards were about 6% of the total camp. The rest of the camp, the parts that he enjoyed, were 94% of the day. Even though the kid loves math, it was hard for him to see the contests and awards as a small part of his day.My son once told me about
21、 a negative situation that played out at recess(课间休息). The way he explained it felt like the disagreement lasted hours, but it turns out it was only the last few minutes of recess.Now is the time for me as the parent to help my kids think more positively. If my son leaves a half-day camp and most of
22、 the day was great thats a win. If our family is able to go to Florida over winter break and enjoy time together, away from the everyday headaches, thats also a win. We can acknowledge the aspects that disappoint us, as long as we are willing to then focus on the bigger picture.It starts with me and
23、 my husband. Our kids will model the behavior we show. They need to see us thinking positively and not hyper-focusing on the negative 6%.24Why did the authors son become so disappointed?AHe spent the day without his iPad.BHe missed out on a basketball contest.CHis mother didnt turn up in a contest.D
24、He didnt gain awards in a shooting contest.25What is the authors purpose in citing those figures in Paragraph 4?ATo help her son to think positively.BTo arouse her sons interest in math.CTo emphasize the disappointing aspects.DTo simplify the process of the shooting contest.26What will the author do
25、 next probably?ADo the math.BSet an example.CStart a project.DLearn from other parents.27What can be concluded from the text according to the author?APractice makes perfect.BEvery coin has two sides.CThe bigger picture matters.DAdversity makes a wise man.CThe neurotransmitter dopamine(多巴胺) is callin
26、g forth a lot of panic these days. According to books, articles and social media posts, our urge for a quick dopamine hit is why we desire cookies and spend too much time on Instagram. If we keep giving in to these desires, as the principle goes, well never be able to stop ourselves.Scientists who s
27、tudy dopamine say these concerns have been blown out of proportion. They “are not necessarily based on actual science of what we know about dopamine,” said Vijay Namboodiri, an assistant professor of neurology(神经学) at the University of California, San Francisco.In the 1990s, scientists realized that
28、 dopamine is more closely related to the expectation of a reward than to its receipt. Dopamine causes the wanting of something and the motivation to go and get it, not the enjoyment of it. “What we think it maybe does is something like desire,” said Talia N. Lerner, an assistant professor of neurosc
29、ience at Northwestern University.Some rewarding behaviors can cause problems in peoples lives. Activities like gambling and playing video games can lead to patterns of behavior similar to those seen in substance use disorder (SUD)namely, continuing the activity despite severe negative consequences.B
30、ut that is the exception, not the rule. “For some people, yes, this is a problem,” Dr. Lerner said. “Its not a problem for most people. We can function in the world and enjoy this reward-rich world.” As with most things related to health, the key is not going extreme. And while dopamine is involved
31、in addiction, to say that its only dopamine is an oversimplification. In fact, experimental attempts to treat addiction by transforming dopamine activity in the brain havent worked.“Theres not necessarily a healthy or unhealthy way to use dopamine,” Dr. Lerner said. “Its just about learning. And you
32、 can always learn something good, you can always learn something bad.” Or, as Dr. Lerner put it, “dopamine is our friend, not just our enemy.”28Which of the following is closest to “blown out of proportion” in Paragraph 2?ANeglected.BOverstated.CJustified.DUnfounded.29What is known about SUD?AIt is
33、a rewarding behavior.BIt leads to final enjoyment.CIt means an addictive activity.DIt is a disease caused by abusing.30What is Dr. Lerners advice on treating dopamine?ATreating it in a reasonable way.BFighting against it like an enemy.CChanging its activity in the brain.DEnjoying the rich reward it
34、brings.31What can be a suitable title for the text?ADopamine, a receipt of joy.BDopamine, a severe addiction.CDopamine, a desire for a reward.DDopamine, an over-concerned matter.DWhat time is it on the moon?Since the dawn of the space age, the answer has been: It depends. For decades, lunar missions
35、 have operated on the time of the country that launched them. But with several lunar explorations heading for the launchpad(发射台), the European Space Agency(ESA) has believed the current system unsustainable and is considering giving the moon its very own time zone.The main objective of establishing
36、a universal timekeeping system for the moon is to streamline contact among the various countries and entities, public and private, which are coordinating trip s to and around the moon.The M1 lunar lander built by the Japanese company Ispace is set to arrive on the moon in April. Last year, China com
37、pleted construction of its own space station and previously suggested that Chinese astronauts would be on the moon by 2030These missions will not only be on or around the moon at the same time, but they will often be interacting as well. For all those interactions to happen smoothly, the missions wi
38、ll need to operate on a standardized time.At the same time, the international team looking at establishing a lunar time zone is debating whether a single organization should set and keep time on the moon. Clocks run faster on the moon than on Earth, gaining about 56 microseconds each day. The exact
39、difference depends on the position of the clock and whether it is in orbit or on the lunar surface.Anyhow, efforts are being made to develop a base and support human habitation on the moon. The goal of setting a universal timekeeping system is to improve cooperation across all space agencies. The ef
40、fort is part of a larger project to create a complete communication and navigation system for the moon. The international space agencies will need to be prepared to settle on a time zone before the proper time zone can be identified, and a thorough research study is required for this.32Why is the ES
41、A considering giving the moon its own time zone?AThe present time system is regarded as ineffective.BThe time on the moon is changing with the space age.CThe M1 lunar lander is set to arrive on the moon in April.DLunar missions have operated on the moons own time zone.33How does the writer develop P
42、aragraph 4?ABy quoting experts.BBy giving examples.CBy listing statistics.DBy making comparisons.34What is presented about setting a time zone in Paragraph 5?AThe plan.BThe cause.CThe future.DThe challenges.35What is the probable attitude of the author towards setting a standardized time zone?AIndif

Id find myself checking it when I should be working, running late to my daughters school events because I tried to fit in
44、 a quick glimpse or staying up far too late surfing vast oceans of information, tired and barely interested but unable to resist the glowing undertow(漩涡) pulling me in.So I blocked Twitter. I went from being on it nearly every day to being off it for two months now.Being offline didnt make my life a
45、 land of meditative happiness. I still have three young loud kids, a job, a church, a spouse and a messy house. 37 . The times when I checked Twitter were often the transition points in my day: when I finished a task, waiting in line or going to the bathroom, the few minutes before I fell asleep. Le
46、aving these small moments of my day unfilled changed how I walk through time. 38 : Guard the margins those seemingly unimportant parts of our day and time. We need moments when we get no news, no videos, no opinions. We need moments when we daydream, when our minds go blank.My friend Timothy is a st

They help guide and change the course of a song.Our days, which are so full of work and thinking, of arguing and learning, of disappointments and confusion, of striving and creating, must have moments when nothing much is happening. 40 . Play the rests. Guard the margins. They matter.AMy new motto born of this experience isBThe problem is that I loved it a little too muchCHe said that music, like a living creature, needs to breatheDBut there is one way t
