Just abut 50 years ag, needing mney t supprt my family—my nvels weren’t bestsellers—I had the idea f taking the lngest train trip imaginable and writing a travel bk abut it. The trip was imprvisatinal (即興的). I didn’t have a credit card. I had n idea where I’d be staying nr hw lng this trip wuld take. And I’d never written a travel bk befre. I hped my trip wuldn’t suffer a lt, thugh it was bviusly a leap in the dark.
I set ff with ne small bag cntaining clthes, a map f Asia, a travel guidebk and sme travelers’ cheques. I was ften incnvenienced, smetimes threatened, nw and then disturbed fr bribes, ccasinally laid up with fd pisning—all this vivid detail fr my narrative.
What I repeated in the mre than fur-mnth trip was the pleasure f the sleeping car. Writing n bard the Khyber Mail t Lahre in Pakistan, “The rmance assciated with the sleeping car cmes frm the fact that it is extremely private, cmbining the best features f a cupbard with frward mvement. Whatever drama is being shwn in this mving bedrm is heightened by the landscape passing the windw...” A train is a carrier that allws residence.
I wrte The Great Railway Bazaar n my return in 1974, and it appeared t gd reviews and quick sales. That’s the past. Nthing is the same. All travel is time-related. All such trips are singular and unrepeatable. It’s nt just that the steam trains f Asia are gne, but much f the peace and rder is gne. Wh’d risk an Iranian train nw r take a bus thrugh Afghanistan?
But I’ve been surprised by sme f the mre recent develpments in travel. I rde n Chinese trains fr a year and wrte Riding the Irn Rster, but nw China has much cleaner and swifter trains and mdernized destinatins. A traveler tday culd take the same trip I tk in 1986—1987 and prduce a cmpletely different bk.
All travel bks are dated. That’s their fault that they’re utdated, and it’s their virtue that they preserve smething f the past that wuld therwise be lst.

Happiness, as I see it, cmprises five elements: spiritual well-being (meaning and purpse), physical well-being (nutritin, exercise), intellectual well-being (curisity, deep learning), relatinal well-being (kindness and genersity), and emtinal well-being (cultivating psitive emtins). As an interdependent aggregate f these five elements f SPIRE, happiness is abut much mre than experiencing pleasure.
As Aristtle put it, happiness is the ultimate purpse f life, meaning hw we spend ur everyday lives is ultimately guided by what we think wuld make us happier. This is nt a gd r a bad thing. It simply is, like the law f nature. Even peple wh are tirelessly wrking fr an imprtant cause, fr example, t get rid f wrld hunger, are ding it because they find their wrk meaningful. Meaning is an element f happiness.
One barrier t happiness has t d with the expectatin that happiness is an unbrken chain f psitive emtins. This expectatin, hwever, prevents peple frm experiencing happiness because painful emtins dn’t g away but grw strnger when we reject them.
The secnd barrier has t d with equating happiness with success. It’s a cmmnly held belief that happiness can be attained by achieving certain gals, like mney r fame. Peple tend t think if they finally find success, they will autmatically becme happy.
The third barrier has t d with the way peple pursue happiness. We want t be happy fr many reasns. After all, we are cnstantly tld that happiness is gd fr ur health, relatinships, and wrk utcmes. Yet, if I wake up in the mrning and decide t pursue happiness straight, I will becme less happy.
But hw? Indirectly. As is knwn, if yu lk up at the sun directly, yu’ll hurt yurself. But if yu take the same sun rays and break them dwn, yu’ll enjy the clrs f a rainbw. Similarly, pursuing happiness directly can hurt us; pursuing it indirectly—by breaking it dwn int smething like the SPIRE elements—can cntribute t ur well-being. Starting a meditatin practice, exercising, perfrming acts f kindness, learning smething new, r expressing gratitude fr what we have are all indirect ways f pursuing happiness.
8. What des the underlined wrd “aggregate” prbably mean in the first paragraph?
A. Cmbinatin.B. Cnclusin.C. Accumulatin.D. Assciatin.
9. What’s the authr’s attitude twards hw we spend ur daily lives?
A. Favrable.B. Suspicius.C. Objective.D. Indifferent.
10. What can we knw frm the text?
A. Being a success leads ne t happiness.
B. Refusing negative feelings helps us btain happiness.
C. Ging after happiness directly makes ne feel happy.
D. Pursuing ne aspect f SPIRE can bst ur well-being.
11. Why is the sun mentined in the last paragraph?
A. T make a cntrast.B. T make an analgy.
C. T cnclude the argumentatin.D. T answer the previus questin.

Yu are what yu eat — and what yu eat may be encded in yur DNA. Studies have indicated that yur genetics play a rle in determining the fds yu find delicius r disgusting. “Everything has a genetic cmpnent, even if it’s small,” says Janne Cle, a geneticist and a prfessr at the University f Clrad Schl f Medicine. “We knw there is sme genetic cntributin t why we eat the fds we eat. Can we take the next step and actually shw the exact psitin f the regins in the genme (染色體)?”
A new research led by Cle has gtten a step clser. Thrugh a large-scale genmics analysis, her team has identified 481 genme regins that were directly linked t dietary patterns and fd preferences. The findings were presented at the American Sciety fr Nutritin’s annual flagship cnference.
They were based n a 2020 Nature Cmmunicatins study by Cle and her clleagues that used data frm the U. K. Bibank, a public database f the genetic and health infrmatin f 500,000 participants. By scanning genmes, the new analysis was able t hme in n 194 regins assciated with dietary patterns and 287 linked t specific fds such as fruit, cheese, fish, tea and alchl.
“This study had a huge number f subjects, s that’s really pwerful,” says Mnica Dus, an assciate prfessr at the University f Michigan, wh wasn’t a part f the new research but studies the relatinship between genes and nutritin. “The ther thing that I thught was really great is that they have s many different characteristics that they’re measuring in respect t diet. They had chlesterl, the bdy, sciecnmic backgrunds.”
As the research advances, Dus says such genme analyses culd pssibly help health care prviders — and even plicymakers — address larger issues that affect fd access and health. “Instead f trying t bsess ver telling peple t eat this r that, a mre pwerful interventin is t link it t making sure there aren’t ‘fd deserts’ r t make sure that there’s a higher minimum wage — things that have a brader impact,” she says.
12. What is the purpse f Cle’s new research?
A. T encde the rle f DNA in determining fd chices.
B. T select genetic cmpnents tightly related t fd cnsumptin.
C. T figure ut the relatinship between genetics and fd preferences.
D. T identify specific regins in the genme related t fd preferences.
13. What’s paragraph 3 mainly abut?
A. The prcess f the study.B. The findings f the study.
C. The data-surce f the study.D. The significance f the study.
14. What des Mnica Dus mean in the text?
A. The subjects f the study are pwerful.
B. The research team studied many aspects linking t diet.
C. The genme analyses have n prspect in the future.
DPeple’s wage shuld be raised because f “fd deserts”.
15. Which f the fllwing can be the best title f the text?
A. What Yu Eat Impacts Yur Health
B. What Yu Eat Frms Yur Dietary Pattern
C. Yur Genes May Determine Yur Nutritinal Need
D. Yur Genes May Influence What Yu Like t Eat

My father, Michael, led me thrugh the little wden huse he’d filled with his paintings. “When I have an exhibitin ...” he began, pinting t the artwrks he’d created, befre stpping. “Pr Pa,” I thught. In 1994 he gt Parkinsn’s Disease (帕金森氏病), which had shcked the whle family as he was nly in his frties.
A husband and father t three, Pa had had a successful career running an advertising agency and had always been extremely creative. Outside f wrk, he’d spent 15 years frnting the cver band, Musical Chairs, which perfrmed at the pub in Sydney’s Duble Bay each week and, when I became a mther, he develped a very clse bnd with my daughter.
Even when his Parkinsn’s advanced, my father decided he wanted t paint. “Why dn’t yu try classes?”my mum Luisa suggested t him. He agreed. In art lessns, the class practised painting still life bjects, like pears, but my father had ther ideas fr his inspiratin. He began prducing abstract pieces, inspired by his favurite artist, Jacksn Pllck, a leading abstract expressinist. “Why abstract?” I asked him. “Because,” he replied,“it helps us t see the wrld arund us in a different way. Yu can lk at these paintings and ask ‘what if?’”
Sn, I realized he was right. When I bserved my father’s wrk, I culd interpret each f them in many ways. Once he gt started, he shwed n signs f slwing dwn. The little huse was quickly filled with mre and mre wrks.

推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一段的“I didn’t have a credit card. I had n idea where I’d be staying nr hw lng this trip wuld take. And I’d never written a travel bk befre. I hped my trip wuldn’t suffer a lt, thugh it was bviusly a leap in the dark.(我沒有信用卡。我不知道我會住在哪里,也不知道這次旅行要花多長時間。我以前從未寫過一本旅游書籍。我希望我的旅行不要太痛苦,盡管這顯然是一次冒險。)”可知,作者并未對這個旅行做好充分的規(guī)劃和打算,且準備不足,因此他期望旅途不要遭受太多苦難,由此推知,他預料到旅途的辛苦。故選B項。

詞義猜測題。該句前文“That’s the past.(那是過去的事了。)”講到上面所講述的有關火車的美好經(jīng)歷都已經(jīng)是過去的事了,而該句后文內(nèi)容“All travel is time-related. All such trips are singular and unrepeatable. It’s nt just that the steam trains f Asia are gne, but much f the peace and rder is gne.(所有的旅行都與時間有關。所有這些旅行都是獨一無二的,不可重復的。不僅是亞洲的蒸汽火車消失了,而且大部分的和平與秩序也消失了。)”則講到隨著時間和社會的發(fā)展,旅行以及旅行方式也隨之發(fā)生了變化,交通工具不一樣了,和平秩序也消失了。由此可知,作者想通過“Nthing is the same”這句話表達“交通方式和旅行本身都隨著時間(社會)的發(fā)展而變化了很多”這一含義。故選D項。
【7題詳解】
推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章最后一段內(nèi)容“All travel bks are dated. That’s their fault that they’re utdated, and it’s their virtue that they preserve smething f the past that wuld therwise be lst.(所有的旅行書籍都注明了日期。這是它們的錯,它們已經(jīng)過時了,它們的美德是它們保留了一些原本會丟失的過去。)”可知,在作者看來,旅行書籍具有時效性,會過時,其記錄下來的旅途過程會成為一種“過去”,這反而是其值得珍惜的地方,因為過去會被遺忘,而這個對旅途過程的記錄會將“過去”保存。由此可推知,作者認為旅途過程才是真正意義所在。因此,作者應是同意選項D“The jurney, nt the arrival matters.(重要的是旅程,而不是到達。)”的觀點。故選D項。

Happiness, as I see it, cmprises five elements: spiritual well-being (meaning and purpse), physical well-being (nutritin, exercise), intellectual well-being (curisity, deep learning), relatinal well-being (kindness and genersity), and emtinal well-being (cultivating psitive emtins). As an interdependent aggregate f these five elements f SPIRE, happiness is abut much mre than experiencing pleasure.
As Aristtle put it, happiness is the ultimate purpse f life, meaning hw we spend ur everyday lives is ultimately guided by what we think wuld make us happier. This is nt a gd r a bad thing. It simply is, like the law f nature. Even peple wh are tirelessly wrking fr an imprtant cause, fr example, t get rid f wrld hunger, are ding it because they find their wrk meaningful. Meaning is an element f happiness.
One barrier t happiness has t d with the expectatin that happiness is an unbrken chain f psitive emtins. This expectatin, hwever, prevents peple frm experiencing happiness because painful emtins dn’t g away but grw strnger when we reject them.
The secnd barrier has t d with equating happiness with success. It’s a cmmnly held belief that happiness can be attained by achieving certain gals, like mney r fame. Peple tend t think if they finally find success, they will autmatically becme happy.
The third barrier has t d with the way peple pursue happiness. We want t be happy fr many reasns. After all, we are cnstantly tld that happiness is gd fr ur health, relatinships, and wrk utcmes. Yet, if I wake up in the mrning and decide t pursue happiness straight, I will becme less happy.
But hw? Indirectly. As is knwn, if yu lk up at the sun directly, yu’ll hurt yurself. But if yu take the same sun rays and break them dwn, yu’ll enjy the clrs f a rainbw. Similarly, pursuing happiness directly can hurt us; pursuing it indirectly—by breaking it dwn int smething like the SPIRE elements—can cntribute t ur well-being. Starting a meditatin practice, exercising, perfrming acts f kindness, learning smething new, r expressing gratitude fr what we have are all indirect ways f pursuing happiness.
8. What des the underlined wrd “aggregate” prbably mean in the first paragraph?
A. Cmbinatin.B. Cnclusin.C. Accumulatin.D. Assciatin.
9. What’s the authr’s attitude twards hw we spend ur daily lives?
A. Favrable.B. Suspicius.C. Objective.D. Indifferent.
10. What can we knw frm the text?
A. Being a success leads ne t happiness.
B. Refusing negative feelings helps us btain happiness.
C. Ging after happiness directly makes ne feel happy.
D. Pursuing ne aspect f SPIRE can bst ur well-being.
11. Why is the sun mentined in the last paragraph?
A. T make a cntrast.B. T make an analgy.
C. T cnclude the argumentatin.D. T answer the previus questin.
【答案】8. A 9. C 10. D 11. B
【解析】
【導語】本文是一篇議論文。作者探討了幸福的五大組成部分(SPIRE)及三種追求幸福路上的障礙,并認為間接追求幸福是最好的方式。
【8題詳解】
詞義猜測題。分析語境和句意可知,畫線單詞短語“As an interdependent aggregate f these five elements f SPIRE (作為這五個要素相互依賴的……)”與該段第一句“Happiness, as I see it, cmprises five elements…(在我看來,幸福包括五個要素……)”在解釋“幸?!边@一詞的含義上是同義表達。在作者看來,幸福是由五個元素組成,即,幸福是五大元素的集合或結合。由此可推知“aggregate”可用“cmbinatin (組合,結合)”解釋。故選A項。
【9題詳解】
推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章第二段內(nèi)容“As Aristtle put it, happiness is the ultimate purpse f life, meaning hw we spend ur everyday lives is ultimately guided by what we think wuld make us happier. This is nt a gd r a bad thing. It simply is, like the law f nature. (正如亞里士多德所說,幸福是人生的終極目的,這意味著我們?nèi)绾味冗^日常生活,最終是由我們認為能讓我們更快樂的事情來指導的。這不是好事也不是壞事。就像自然法則一樣。)”可知,人們?nèi)绾味冗^日常生活,最終是由人們認為能讓自己更快樂的事情來指導的,作者用“這不是一件好的或者壞的事情,它只是像自然法則一樣”來給與評價,這是客觀性的評價,由此可推知,作者對此持有客觀中立態(tài)度。故選C項。
【10題詳解】
細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章最后一段內(nèi)容“Similarly, pursuing happiness directly can hurt us; pursuing it indirectly—by breaking it dwn int smething like the SPIRE elements—can cntribute t ur well-being. (同樣,直接追求幸福也會傷害我們;通過將其分解為類似精神五大元素的東西來間接地追求它,可以為我們的幸福做出貢獻。)”可知,間接地追求幸福,即,把它分解成像SPIRE五大元素之類的東西,通過某個元素追求可以有助于實現(xiàn)幸福。故選D項。
【11題詳解】
推理判斷題。分析語境可知,最后一段“As is knwn, if yu lk up at the sun directly, yu’ll hurt yurself. But if yu take the same sun rays and break them dwn, yu’ll enjy the clrs f a rainbw. (眾所周知,如果你抬頭直視太陽,你會傷到自己。但是如果你把同樣的太陽光分解,你就會享受到彩虹的顏色。)”中提及直視太陽會讓自己受傷,間接看太陽則會看到彩虹,緊接著用“Similarly (相似地,同樣)”這一詞引出后文“pursuing happiness directly can hurt us; pursuing it indirectly—by breaking it dwn int smething like the SPIRE elements—can cntribute t ur well-being (直接追求幸福也會傷害我們;通過將其分解為類似精神五大元素的東西來間接地追求它,可以為我們的幸福做出貢獻)”討論,“直視太陽”就相當于“直接追求幸?!?,“把陽光分解”就相當于“將幸福分解為五大元素”。由此可知,作者這里提及陽光是為了做類比,讓人在理解時更加具體化。故選B項。

Yu are what yu eat — and what yu eat may be encded in yur DNA. Studies have indicated that yur genetics play a rle in determining the fds yu find delicius r disgusting. “Everything has a genetic cmpnent, even if it’s small,” says Janne Cle, a geneticist and a prfessr at the University f Clrad Schl f Medicine. “We knw there is sme genetic cntributin t why we eat the fds we eat. Can we take the next step and actually shw the exact psitin f the regins in the genme (染色體)?”
A new research led by Cle has gtten a step clser. Thrugh a large-scale genmics analysis, her team has identified 481 genme regins that were directly linked t dietary patterns and fd preferences. The findings were presented at the American Sciety fr Nutritin’s annual flagship cnference.
They were based n a 2020 Nature Cmmunicatins study by Cle and her clleagues that used data frm the U. K. Bibank a public database f the genetic and health infrmatin f 500,000 participants. By scanning genmes, the new analysis was able t hme in n 194 regins assciated with dietary patterns and 287 linked t specific fds such as fruit, cheese, fish, tea and alchl.
“This study had a huge number f subjects, s that’s really pwerful,” says Mnica Dus, an assciate prfessr at the University f Michigan, wh wasn’t a part f the new research but studies the relatinship between genes and nutritin. “The ther thing that I thught was really great is that they have s many different characteristics that they’re measuring in respect t diet. They had chlesterl, the bdy, sciecnmic backgrunds.”
As the research advances, Dus says such genme analyses culd pssibly help health care prviders — and even plicymakers — address larger issues that affect fd access and health. “Instead f trying t bsess ver telling peple t eat this r that, a mre pwerful interventin is t link it t making sure there aren’t ‘fd deserts’ r t make sure that there’s a higher minimum wage — things that have a brader impact,” she says.
12. What is the purpse f Cle’s new research?
A. T encde the rle f DNA in determining fd chices.
B. T select genetic cmpnents tightly related t fd cnsumptin.
C. T figure ut the relatinship between genetics and fd preferences.
D. T identify specific regins in the genme related t fd preferences.
13. What’s paragraph 3 mainly abut?
A. The prcess f the study.B. The findings f the study.
C. The data-surce f the study.D. The significance f the study.
14. What des Mnica Dus mean in the text?
A. The subjects f the study are pwerful.
B. The research team studied many aspects linking t diet.
C. The genme analyses have n prspect in the future.
D. Peple’s wage shuld be raised because f “fd deserts”.
15. Which f the fllwing can be the best title f the text?
A. What Yu Eat Impacts Yur Health
B. What Yu Eat Frms Yur Dietary Pattern
C. Yur Genes May Determine Yur Nutritinal Need

【17題詳解】
根據(jù)上一段中的尾句“Fllw the tips belw, and sn yu’ll be ready t put yur wrk ut there fr the wrld t see.(遵循下面的建議,很快你就可以把你的作品展示給全世界了。)”可知,此空處應為寫作的建議之一,結合空后的“Reading helps yu develp a firm grasp n hw stries are structured.(閱讀可以幫助你牢牢把握故事的結構。)”可知,此處講述的是閱讀對寫作的好處,所以該建議應與閱讀相關,A選項“Gd writers are actually gd readers.(好的作家其實也是好的讀者。)”與本段講述的內(nèi)容一致,且可以概括本段主題。故選A項。
【18題詳解】

My father, Michael, led me thrugh the little wden huse he’d filled with his paintings. “When I have an exhibitin ...” he began, pinting t the artwrks he’d created, befre stpping. “Pr Pa,” I thught. In 1994 he gt Parkinsn’s Disease (帕金森氏病), which had shcked the whle family as he was nly in his frties.
A husband and father t three, Pa had had a successful career running an advertising agency and had always been extremely creative. Outside f wrk, he’d spent 15 years frnting the cver band, Musical Chairs, which perfrmed at the pub in Sydney’s Duble Bay each week and, when I became a mther, he develped a very clse bnd with my daughter.
Even when his Parkinsn’s advanced, my father decided he wanted t paint. “Why dn’t yu try classes?”my mum Luisa suggested t him. He agreed. In art lessns, the class practised painting still life bjects, like pears, but my father had ther ideas fr his inspiratin. He began prducing abstract pieces, inspired by his favurite artist, Jacksn Pllck, a leading abstract expressinist. “Why abstract?” I asked him. “Because,” he replied,“it helps us t see the wrld arund us in a different way. Yu can lk at these paintings and ask ‘what if?’”
Sn, I realized he was right. When I bserved my father’s wrk, I culd interpret each f them in many ways. Once he gt started, he shwed n signs f slwing dwn. The little huse was quickly filled with mre and mre wrks.
But in 2019, Pa develped cancer and was given just three mnths t live. The thught f lsing him was t much fr any f my family t accept, but we sn received great news that a new frm f treatment can help him greatly. Since he cntinued speaking abut wanting t share his paintings with the wrld, I knew what had t be dne.
