Sectin A
Directins: After reading the passage belw, fill in the blanks t make the passage cherent and grammatically crrect. Fr the blanks with a given wrd, fill in each blank with the prper frm f the given wrd; fr the ther blanks, use ne wrd that best fits each blank.
Several years ag, a c-wrker invited me ver fr a classic scial traditin: a game night. I dn’t like bard games. When I’m hanging ut with thers, I much prefer the free flw f cnversatin____21____ the structure f cmpetitin. _____22_____ ________ smene starts explaining the game rules, my brain tends t invluntarily tune ut, a defense mechanism against unwanted and useless infrmatin.
S bviusly, eager t make new friends. I tld my c-wrk I was in.
The evening was disappinting. An alarmingly cmplex game was first explained and then repeated, upn my request. I 23 (assure) that I’d “get it after a cuple f runds,” which never happened. I was s bad that I was ruining everyne eles’s experience with my unpredictable plays and cnstant need 24 (remind) f what was happening.
25 these peple kindly became my friends anyway, I was never invited back t anther game night. “We just knw yu’re nt really a game persn, ” ne f them later tld me, eyes 26 (slide) sideward.
Nt being a game persn nwadays can make ne feel like an exceptin. Bard games, which in 2021 were a $13. 4 billin glbal market, are surging in ppularity. There are peple wh lve scializing thrugh games in every twn, 27 makes my resistance t them feel unacceptable. Maybe, I thught, I was missing 28 abut the scial value f games. Games can reveal peple’s cre qualities: hw they react when they’re stressed, hw they cperate in a team, r hw they behave when they win r lse.
Hwever, I still have a general sense 29 they’re a silly way t pass time. When I think abut the leisure activities I “indulge” in, such as cycling, they tend t have bnus benefits. Thrugh cycling, my friends and I can share experiences that simulate the variable cnditins f life: jy and pain, uncertainty and achievement. We can all reap rewards frm bnding thrugh playful activities: 30 we see as play just varies. I get that nw. But t be clear, there’s still n need t invite me t yur game night.
【答案】
21．t 22．As sn as 23．was assured 24．t be reminded 25．Althugh 26．sliding 27．which 28．smething 29．that 30．what
【導語】這是一篇記敘文。主要講述了幾年前，一位同事邀請作者參加一個經(jīng)典的社交傳統(tǒng)：“游戲之夜”的故事。
21．考查介詞。句意：當我和別人出去玩的時候，我更喜歡自由的對話，而不是競爭的結(jié)構(gòu)。分析句子可知，此處為動詞短語prefer sth t sth“喜歡某事勝過某事”，所以此處為介詞t的填入。故填t。
22．考查連詞。句意：當有人開始解釋游戲規(guī)則時，我的大腦往往會不由自主地關(guān)閉，這是一種防御機制，可以抵御不必要和無用的信息。分析句子可知，此處為連詞表示“一……就……”引導的時間狀語從句，滿足句意要求。故填As sn as。
23．考查動詞時態(tài)和語態(tài)。句意：有人向我保證，我“幾輪之后就會得到它”，但這從未發(fā)生過。分析句子可知，此處為謂語動詞的填入，主語I和動詞assure為被動關(guān)系，表示“我被使確信”，結(jié)合上下文時態(tài)可知，此處應(yīng)為陳述過去發(fā)生的事情，所以為一般過去時的被動語態(tài)結(jié)構(gòu)。故填was assured。
24．考查動詞不定式的被動語態(tài)結(jié)構(gòu)。句意：我太糟糕了，因為我的不可預測的表演和不斷需要被提醒發(fā)生了什么，我破壞了其他人的體驗。分析句子可知，此處為動詞不定式作后置定語修飾名詞短語unpredictable plays and cnstant need，表示“將要做的事情”，unpredictable plays and cnstant need和動詞remind為被動關(guān)系，所以為動詞不定式的被動語態(tài)結(jié)構(gòu)。故填t be reminded。
25．考查讓步狀語從句。句意：盡管這些人友善地成為了我的朋友，但我再也沒有被邀請參加另一個游戲之夜。分析句子可知，此處為連詞Althugh表示“盡管”引導的讓步狀語從句，滿足句意要求。故填Althugh。
26．考查獨立主格結(jié)構(gòu)。句意：我們只知道你不是一個真正的游戲愛好者，其中一人后來告訴我，眼睛移向一邊。分析句子可知，此處為獨立主格結(jié)構(gòu)，此處動詞應(yīng)為非謂語形式，eyes和slide為主動關(guān)系，所以為現(xiàn)在分詞形式。故填sliding。
27．考查定語從句。句意：每個城鎮(zhèn)都有喜歡通過游戲進行社交的人，這讓我覺得無法接受他們的抵制。分析句子可知，此處為關(guān)系代詞which引導的非限制性定語從句，先行詞為前面整句話在從句中作主語成分。故填which。
28．考查代詞。句意：我想，也許我忽略了游戲的社交價值。根據(jù)句意以及空后abut介詞可知，此處為代詞smething表示“一些事情”，構(gòu)成smething abut“一些關(guān)于”，滿足句意要求。故填smething。
29．考查同位語從句。句意：然而，我仍然覺得它們是一種消磨時間的愚蠢方式。分析句子可知，此處為that引導的同位語從句，對先行詞sense的解釋和說明。故填that。
30．考查主語從句。句意：我們所看到的游戲只是不同的。分析句子可知，we see as play是主語從句，該主語從句缺少賓語，所以應(yīng)該用連接代詞what引導的主語從句，what在從句中作賓語成分，意為“……的事物”。故填what。

Is a Science-Based Educatin the Way t G?
In this present age when we are heavily dependent n science and technlgy, a science-based educatin system naturally becmes prevalent t equip the yung with knwledge f the 41 f ur wrld arund them. The varius disciplines f science, such as bilgy and astrnmy, certainly help us t grasp nt nly the 42 f Earth, but als the significance f human beings in the universe. Mrever, as peple naturally have an inbrn desire t cntrl the envirnment, a science-based educatin seems t be well 43 t humanity’s inquisitive nature. 44 , it remains questinable whether a science-based educatin is able t paint a cmplete picture f the wrld.
Certainly, it equips us with the knwledge f 45 which is necessary fr us t make sense f the wrld. By laying the fundatin f the skills in students, they will be equipped with the necessary skills t discver the wrld as 46 by science tday. A classic example is Gregr Mendel’s famus pea plant experiment. Withut this, we wuld nt have understd the 47 f ur genes, nr the reasns why ffspring may lk strikingly similar t their parents.
Additinally, the scientific methd highlights the imprtance f 48 , which is instrumental in the acquisitin f knwledge. In a typical science-based educatinal system, students are taught t bjectively analyze empirical data and derive scientific principles. Besides, a science-based educatin empwers us t 49 precnceived(預想的) cncepts instead f merely accepting “facts” at face value.
Despite its 50 , a science-based educatin des nt always enlighten us abut certain aspects f the wrld that can’t be ratinalized thrugh the scientific methd. Thugh it explains hw the wrld wrks, it is lacking as it des nt 51 much abut why things happen. Fr example, science can prvide a neurlgical explanatin n hw we perceive breathtaking scenery, but it can’t explain what cnstitutes beauty r why we are s innately drawn t it. Thus, t 52 , the Arts ffer us insightful perspectives n the rle f science and the wrld at large.
Mrever, science may have great emphasis n prgress that may cme at a great 53 t the wrld. A science-based educatin that fcuses slely n the latest scientific breakthrughs may well 54 the study f ethical cntrversies and significant histrical events. Fr instance, it remains t be seen whether clning is mrally acceptable.
In cnclusin, a science-based educatin cupled with adequate expsure t ethics, values and the humanities wuld 55 students with a deeper insight int the cmplex nature f the wrld.

But at this time f year I’m always reminded f hw many peple nt nly get n presents but als lack the basics t allw them t live healthy lives. Fr me, luxury headphnes were the perfect gift; fr the wrld’s prest, it wuld be nutritius fd, clean water and health care.
The prest 10% f the wrld’s ppulatin, sme 700 millin peple, live n less than $1.90 per day. And that’s adjusting fr lcal purchasing pwer: they live n what $1.90 wuld buy in the
U.S. Faced with this kind f budget, and ften gegraphically islated, they are frced t eat whatever they can find and drink and wash in unsafe water. They can nly pray that they dn’t succumb t malnutritin, malaria r any number f ther diseases that, while perfectly curable in rich cuntries, frequently ruin r end lives in the develping wrld.
I dn’t seek t make anyne feel guilty fr exchanging luxury gds with the peple they lve. But it seems t me that there’s anther type f giving that is, if anything, even mre prfund: giving the basics f life t thse mst in need. Sure, yu might nt get a thank-yu letter(wh des these days?), but yu’ll have dne smething extrardinary.
Hwever, I’m nt just interested in peple giving mre t charity(althugh that is imprtant). I’m als passinate abut peple giving smarter, because where yu give can make a huge difference n the impact yu’ll have.
What d I mean by that? Well, t start with, there’s a reasn I’ve been talking abut the develping wrld. Even average earners in the West are incredibly rich cmpared with the glbal pr, s a sum f mney cnsidered mderate fr sme culd make a huge difference in the prest cuntries.
That’s nt t say that all develping wrld pverty-relief charities ate gd at making a difference—that’s certainly nt the case. Plenty f mney dnated in gd faith is lst t lcal crruptin, pr administratin r prgrams f interventin that sund great in thery but dn’t achieve much in practice. As a result, it’s crucial t lk at the effectiveness f the wrk a charity des befre cmmitting yur mney. Hw much gd des it achieve fr each dllar dnated? Is there rbust evidence fr the impact f its prgrams?
It’s nt always easy fr peple t find the answers, but they are vital questins t ask. That’s why there are nw rganizatins devted t finding and prmting the best charities. As part f the effective-altruism(利他主義) mvements, they are dedicated t helping peple make the biggest pssible difference with their dnatins.
I lve my music, and I lve my headphnes. But this year, the best gift I culd get is t see as many peple as pssible giving generusly t the mst effective charities in the wrld.

【答案】56．D 57．D 58．C 59．C
【分析】本文是一篇夾敘夾議文，作者從收到的最好的禮物入手，呼吁更多的人捐款給世界上最有效的慈善機構(gòu)以幫助那些處于貧困之中的人。
56．詞義猜測題。根據(jù)畫線詞前的“they are frced t eat whatever they can find and drink and wash in unsafe water.”可知，他們被迫吃他們能找到的任何東西，喝不安全的水，用不安全的水洗澡。他們只能祈禱自己不會患上營養(yǎng)不良、瘧疾或其他疾病，由此可知畫線詞詞義為“幫助引發(fā)”，故D項正確。
57．細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段中的“…while perfectly curable in rich cuntries, frequently ruin r end lives in the develping wrld.”可知，這些疾病在富裕國家是完全可以治愈的，但往往會毀掉或結(jié)束發(fā)展中國家的人的生活，由此可知，一些在貧窮的國家可能致命的疾病在發(fā)達國家是可以治愈的，故D項正確。
58．推理判斷題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第三段中的“prgrams f interventin that sund great in thery but dn’t achieve much in practice.”可知，一些干預計劃（慈善項目）雖然在理論上聽起來不錯，但在實踐中收效甚微，也就是說一些慈善項目由于不太實際，所以收效甚微，故C項正確。
59．主旨大意題。通讀全文，特別是根據(jù)最后一段中的“But this year, the best gift I culd get is t see as many peple as pssible giving generusly t the mst effective charities in the wrld.”可知，作者從收到的最好的禮物入手，呼吁更多的人捐款給世界上最有效的慈善機構(gòu)以幫助那些處于貧困之中的人，故C項（讓最好的禮物有意義）最適合做文章標題。
【點睛】文章標題形式的主旨大意題難度較大，被選選項要具有高度的概括性，因此抓住文章主題是關(guān)鍵，夾敘夾議文的主題一般體現(xiàn)在最后的感悟部分，通常由but, yet, hwever等表示轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系的詞語引出，例如本篇第4題，根據(jù)最后一段中的“But this year, the best gift I culd get is t see as many peple as pssible giving generusly t the mst effective charities in the wrld.”可知，作者從收到的最好的禮物入手，呼吁更多的人捐款給世界上最有效的慈善機構(gòu)以幫助那些處于貧困之中的人，因此標題一定要體現(xiàn)出“最好的禮物”和“用到實處（幫助別人）”兩方面，故C項（讓最好的禮物有意義）最適合做文章標題。

As Frans de Waal, a primatlgist (靈長動物學家), recgnizes, a better way t think abut ther creatures wuld be t ask urselves hw different species have develped different kinds f minds t slve different adaptive prblems. Surely the imprtant questin is nt whether animals can d the same things humans can, but hw thse animals slve the cgnitive (認知的) prblems they face, like hw t imitate the sea flr. Children and sme animals are s interesting nt because they are smart like us, but because they are smart in ways we haven’t even cnsidered.
Smetimes studying children’s ways f knwing can cast light n adult-human cgnitin. Children’s pretend play may help us understand ur adult taste fr fictin. De Waal’s research prvides anther interesting example. We human beings tend t think that ur scial relatinships are rted in ur perceptins, beliefs, and desires, and ur understanding f the perceptins, beliefs, and desires f thers — what psychlgists call ur “thery f mind.” In the 80s and 90s, develpmental psychlgists shwed that pre-schlers and even infants understand minds apart frm their wn. But it was hard t shw that ther animals did the same. “Thery f mind” became a candidate fr the special, uniquely human trick.
Yet de Waal’s studies shw that chimps (黑猩猩) pssess a remarkably develped plitical intelligence — they are much interested in figuring ut scial relatinships. It turns ut, as de Waal describes, that chimps d infer smething abut what ther chimps see. But experimental studies als suggest that this happens nly in a cmpetitive plitical cntext. The evlutinary anthrplgist (人類學家) Brain Hare and his clleagues gave a junir chimp a chice between pieces f fd that a dminant chimp had seen hidden and ther pieces it had nt seen hidden. The junir chimp, wh watched all the hiding, stayed away frm the fd the dminant chimp had seen, but tk the fd it hadn’t seen.
Anyne wh has gne t an academic cnference will recgnize that we may be in the same situatin. We may say that we sign up because we’re eager t find ut what ther human beings think, but we’re just as interested in wh’s n tp. Many f the plitical judgments we make there dn’t have much t d with ur thery f mind. We may shw ur respect t a famus prfessr even if we have n respect fr his ideas.
Until recently, hwever, there wasn’t much research int hw humans develp and emply this kind f plitical knwledge. It may be that we understand the scial wrld in terms f dminance, like chimps, but we’re just nt usually as plitically mtivated as they are. Instead f asking whether we have a better everyday thery f mind, we might wnder whether they have a better everyday thery f plitics.
63．Accrding t the first paragraph, which f the fllwing shws that an animal is smart?
A．It can behave like a human kid.
B．It can imitate what human beings d.
C．It can find a slutin t its wn prblem.
D．It can figure ut thse adaptive prblems.
64．Which f the fllwing statements best illustrates ur “thery f mind”?
A．We talk with infants in a way that they can fully understand.
B．We make guesses at what thers think while interacting with them.
C．We hide ur emtins when we try establishing cntact with a stranger.
D．We try t understand hw kids’ pretend play affects ur taste fr fictin.
65．What can be inferred frm the passage?
A．Neither human nr animals display their preference fr dminance.
B．Animals living in a cmpetitive plitical cntext are smarter.
C．Bth humans and sme animals have plitical intelligence.
D．Humans are mre interested in wh’s n tp than animals.
66．By the underlined sentence in the last paragraph, the writer means that ________.
A．we knw little abut hw chimps are plitically mtivated
B．ur plitical knwledge desn’t always determine hw we behave
C．ur thery f mind might enable us t understand ur thery f plitics
D．mre research shuld be cnducted t understand animals’ scial wrld
【答案】63．C 64．B 65．C 66．B
【導語】這是一篇說明文。文章主要介紹了我們?nèi)祟惖男闹抢碚?，同時說明了黑猩猩雖和人類一樣有政治才能，但是不一樣的是，人類的政治知識不總是決定我們的行為。
63．細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段“Surely the imprtant questin is nt whether animals can d the same things humans can, but hw thse animals slve the cgnitive (認知的) prblems they face, like hw t imitate the sea flr. (當然，重要的問題不在于動物是否能做與人類相同的事情，而在于這些動物如何解決它們面臨的認知問題，比如如何模仿海底)”可知，根據(jù)第一段，C項“動物可以找到自己問題的解決方案”表明動物很聰明。故選C。
64．推理判斷題。文章第二段講到“We human beings tend t think that ur scial relatinships are rted in ur perceptins, beliefs, and desires, and ur understanding f the perceptins, beliefs, and desires f thers — what psychlgists call ur “thery f mind.”(我們?nèi)祟悆A向于認為，我們的社會關(guān)系植根于我們的感知、信念和欲望，以及我們對他人感知、信仰和欲望的理解——心理學家稱之為我們的“心理理論”)”可知，“心理理論”即我們對我們的感知、信仰和欲望，以及我們對他人的感知、信仰和欲望的理解。由此推知，B項“我們在與他人互動時猜測他人的想法”最能說明我們的“心理理論”。故選B。
65．推理判斷題。根據(jù)第三段中“Yet de Waal’s studies shw that chimps (黑猩猩) pssess a remarkably develped plitical intelligence — they are much interested in figuring ut scial relatinships.(然而，德瓦爾的研究表明，黑猩猩擁有非常發(fā)達的政治智力——它們對弄清社會關(guān)系非常感興趣)”和最后一段中的“Until recently, hwever, there wasn’t much research int hw humans develp and emply this kind f plitical knwledge.(然而，直到最近，對于人類如何發(fā)展和運用這種政治知識，還沒有太多的研究)”可推知，人類和一些動物都有政治智慧。故選C。
66．詞句猜測題。根據(jù)劃線句子下文“Instead f asking whether we have a better everyday thery f mind, we might wnder whether they have a better everyday thery f plitics.(與其問我們是否有更好的日常心智理論，不如問他們是否有更好的日常政治理論)”和第三段中的第一句話“Yet de Waal’s studies shw that chimps (黑猩猩) pssess a remarkably develped plitical intelligence — they are much interested in figuring ut scial relatinships.(然而，德瓦爾的研究表明，黑猩猩擁有非常發(fā)達的政治智力——它們對弄清社會關(guān)系非常感興趣)”可知，黑猩猩的政治智力會決定它們的行為，但是人類不一樣，結(jié)合劃線句子“It may be that we understand the scial wrld in terms f dminance, like chimps, but we’re just nt usually as plitically mtivated as they are.(也許我們像黑猩猩一樣，從支配地位的角度來理解社會世界，但我們通常不像它們那樣有政治動機)”可知，人類不像黑猩猩一樣有政治動機，黑猩猩的政治智力會決定它們的行為，但是人類不一樣。由此可知，劃線句子所表達的意思是“人類的政治知識不總是決定我們的表現(xiàn)”。故選B。

The majrity f the nearly 2 billin punds f pumpkins cultivated in the US each year are carved up instead f being eaten, making the pumpkins a unique part f the agriculture industry. Fr peple wh prefer seasnal recipes t decratins, that may raise a few questins: Are the pumpkins sld fr jack-'-lantens different frm punpkins sld as fd? 67
The pumpkins available at farms and utside supermarkets during Octber are what mst peple knw, but that's just ne type f pumpkin. Hwden pumpkins are the mst cmmn decrative pumpkin variety. They've been bred specifically fr carving int jack-'-lanterns, with a symmetrical (對稱的) rund shape and tugh stem that acts as a handle.
68 They have walls that are thin enugh t pke a cheap knife thrugh and a texture that's unappealing cmpared t the pumpkins cnsumers are used t eating. “Uncut carving pumpkins are safe t eat; hwever, it's nt the best type t use fr cking,” Daria McKelvey, a supervisr fr the Kemper Center fr Hme Gardening at the Missuri Btanical Garden, tells Mental Flss.
T get the best-tasting pumpkins pssible this autumn, yu're better ff aviding the seasnal supermarket displays. Many pumpkins varieties are bred especially fr cking and eating. These include Sugar pie, Kabcha, and Cinderella pumpkins. Yu can shp fr thse varieties by name at lcal farms r in the prduce sectin f yur grcery stre. They shuld be easy t tell apart frm the carving pumpkins available fr Hallween: 69 This is part f the reasn why they taste better.
If yu d want t get sme cking use ut f yur carving pumpkins this Hallween, set aside the seeds when picking ut the guts. Rasted with flavrs and live il, seeds frm different pumpkin varieties becme a tasty and nutritius snack. 70 There are many ways t recycle yur jack-'-lanterns, but turning them int a pie isn't ne f them. “If ne des plan n cking with a carving pumpkin, it shuld be intact,” McKelvey says. “Never use ne that's been carved int a jack-'-lantern, therwise yu culd be dealing with bacteria, dirt and dust.”
【答案】67．F 68．C 69．E 70．A
【分析】本文是說明文。文章介紹了用于萬圣節(jié)的雕刻南瓜，它和烹飪南瓜的區(qū)別以及如何將其用于烹飪。
67．根據(jù)上文“Fr peple wh prefer seasnal recipes t decratins, that may raise a few questins: Are the pumpkins sld fr jack-'-lantens different frm punpkins sld as fd?(對于那些喜歡季節(jié)性食譜而不是裝飾的人來說，這可能會帶來一些問題：做南瓜燈的南瓜和做食物的南瓜有區(qū)別嗎? )”中a few questins可知，問題不止一個，所以設(shè)空處應(yīng)該是一個問題，因此只能在B和F中選，再根據(jù)句中問問題的人“peple wh prefer seasnal recipes t decratins”可推知，這些喜歡季節(jié)性食譜的人關(guān)心的問題應(yīng)該與吃有關(guān)，所以F 項“And are Hallween pumpkins any gd t eat?(萬圣節(jié)南瓜好吃嗎?)”是最佳選項。故選F項。
68．根據(jù)下文“They have walls that are thin enugh t pke a cheap knife thrugh and a texture that's unappealing cmpared t the pumpkins cnsumers are used t eating.(它們的壁薄到可以用一把便宜的小刀刺穿，而且與消費者習慣吃的南瓜相比，它的質(zhì)地并不吸引人)”中指示代詞they可知，設(shè)空處應(yīng)出現(xiàn)代詞指代對象，再結(jié)合句意可推知，they指代的對象可用于雕刻且味道不如消費者習慣吃的南瓜，C項“Because they're bred t be decratin first, carving pumpkins dn't taste very gd.(因為它們最初是被培育來做裝飾的，雕刻南瓜的味道不是很好)”中說到的carving pumpkins正是其指代對象。故選C項。
69．根據(jù)上文“They shuld be easy t tell apart frm the carving pumpkins available fr Hallween:(它們應(yīng)該很容易和萬圣節(jié)用的雕刻南瓜區(qū)分開來)”中冒號可知，設(shè)空處是介紹區(qū)分烹飪南瓜和雕刻南瓜的方法，E項“Unlike decrative pumpkins, cking pumpkins are small and dense.(與裝飾性南瓜不同，烹飪南瓜體積小，密度大)”介紹了兩種南瓜的不同之處，且句中dense與下文“This is part f the reasn why they taste better.(這是它們味道更好的部分原因)”相照應(yīng)。故選E項。
70．上文“Rasted with flavrs and live il, seeds frm different pumpkin varieties becme a tasty and nutritius snack.(用香料和橄欖油烘烤，不同品種的南瓜種子就變成為一種美味又營養(yǎng)的小吃)”說把雕刻南瓜種子做成可口的小吃，A項“Whatever yu d, make sure yur pumpkin isn't carved up already when yu decide t ck with it.(無論你做什么，確保你的南瓜在你決定烹飪的時候沒有被切開)”講雕刻南瓜的烹飪，上下文語意相關(guān)，且與下文“‘If ne des plan n cking with a carving pumpkin, it shuld be intact,’ McKelvey says. ‘Never use ne that's been carved int a jack-'-lantern, therwise yu culd be dealing with bacteria, dirt and dust. ’(麥凱維說:“如果有人打算用雕刻的南瓜來烹飪，那么南瓜應(yīng)該是完好無損的。千萬不要使用雕刻成南瓜燈的南瓜，否則你可能會接觸到細菌、灰塵和灰塵。”) ”相照應(yīng)。故選A項。

Obstacles t the crrect decisin
Life is full f chices, sme incnsequential, sme really significant. But smetimes it can be hard t make the crrect ne. What are the bstacles that stand between us and a gd utcme?
Sme f us just find it hard t decide. Alice Byes, writing fr Harvard Business Review, tells us this can be cnnected t perfectinism, where peple attempt t find a perfect slutin t any prblem and are unable t mve frward when they can’t find ne. It might seem that being indecisive wuld stp us making the right decisin, but in fact it culd actually help us make the crrect nes.
Susan Krauss in Psychlgy Tday reminds us that peple ften make bad decisins because they base them n precnceptins rather than the cntext in which things happen. She highlights a paper by researcher Iris Schneider which finds that indecisive peple are mre likely t lk at different perspectives and use them t cme t a better decisin. S, it culd be that a mre significant barrier t making the best chice is ur cgnitive biases.
David Rbsn tells us that intelligence can smetimes stp peple making the right decisin. Peple smetimes use intelligence t invent justificatins fr irratinal beliefs. He believes that humility is key t making a gd decisin. Peple wh can accept that they might be wrng are mre likely t cnsider different viewpints. He is backed up n this by Jeff Bezs. Tech CEO Jasn Fried recalls the Amazn funder saying hw the peple wh were right a lt f the time were the peple wh ften changed their minds.
S, maybe rather than indecisin, it might be intelligence and decisiveness, backed up by ur biases that actually stp us making gd chices while humility and indecisiveness culd help us pick the best ptin.

【導語】本文是一篇說明文。文章介紹說，決策過程中存在障礙。有些完美主義者優(yōu)柔寡斷，但事實上，他們的優(yōu)柔寡斷有助于做出正確的決策。沒有認知偏差，優(yōu)柔寡斷的人傾向于考慮不同的觀點。此外，聰明的人喜歡把不合理的信念合理化，而不是承認自己的錯誤。因此，做出更好決策的真正障礙是智慧和果斷，而不是優(yōu)柔寡斷。

72．這個包又臟又粘，他卻沒想過要洗洗。（ccur）
【答案】It hasn’t ccurred t him t wash the bag thugh it is sticky and dirty.
【詳解】考查固定句型和狀語從句。表示“某人沒有想過做某事”應(yīng)用It hasn’t ccurred t sb. t d sth.；表示“洗包”應(yīng)用wash the bag，后跟thugh引導的讓步狀語從句，表示“又臟又粘”翻譯為it is sticky and dirty，句子用一般現(xiàn)在時。故翻譯為It hasn’t ccurred t him t wash the bag thugh it is sticky and dirty.
73．這個村莊位于山間，這使得普通的車輛很難到達那里。(inaccessible)
【答案】The village is lcated amng hills, which makes it inaccessible t rdinary cars.
【詳解】考查時態(tài)，主謂一致和定語從句。分析句意可知，句子描述客觀事實，時態(tài)用一般現(xiàn)在時，“這個村莊”是the village，“位于山間”是is lcated amng hills，“這使得普通的車輛很難到達那里”用which引導非限制性定語從句，指代前面整個主句，“使得普通的車輛很難到達那里”是make it inaccessible t rdinary cars，which指代整個主句的內(nèi)容，make用第三人稱單數(shù)，因此整句話翻譯為“The village is lcated amng hills, which makes it inaccessible t rdinary cars”。故答案為The village is lcated amng hills, which makes it inaccessible t rdinary cars.
74．實驗結(jié)果與我們所期望的大相徑庭，但我們相信探索越多，就越可能成功。(likely)
【答案】The result f the experiment is ttally different frm/cntrary t what we expected, but we believe that the mre we explre, the mre likely we are t/will succeed.
【詳解】考查固定短語、從句和時態(tài)。表示“實驗結(jié)果”短語為the result f the experiment；表示“大相徑庭”短語為be ttally different frm/cntrary t，后跟what引導的賓語從句，表示“我們所期望的”應(yīng)用what we expect，為一般過去時；后跟but連接的并列句，主語為we，表示“相信”應(yīng)用believe，后跟that引導的從句，表示“越……越……”應(yīng)用the+比較級，the+比較級，表示“探索”應(yīng)用explre，表示“可能成功”應(yīng)用be likely t succeed，也可將likely看作副詞，修飾謂語動詞will succeed。故翻譯為The result f the experiment is ttally different frm/cntrary t what we expected, but we believe that the mre we explre, the mre likely we are t/will succeed.
75．無論手頭的事情多么重要或微不足道，我們都應(yīng)該謹慎對待我們做的每一個決定，因為失之毫厘，差以千里。(difference)
【答案】N matter hw significant r insignificant the matter at hand is, we shuld be cautius abut every reslutin (that) we make, because ne false step will make a great difference./Hwever significant r insignificant the matter at hand is, we shuld be cautius abut every reslutin (that) we make, becasue ne false step will make a great difference.
【詳解】考查時態(tài)、讓步狀語從句，形容詞短語、介詞短語、定語從句和原因狀語從句。陳述客觀現(xiàn)象，謂語動詞用一般現(xiàn)在時?！盁o論……多么……或……”表達為N matter 或者，引導讓步狀語從句，hw或hwever后接形容詞；“手頭的事情”表達為 the matter at hand，介詞短語at hand為后置定語，修飾讓步狀語從句的主語the matter；“重要”表達為形容詞significant，“微不足道”表達為形容詞insignificant，都作為讓步狀語從句的表語?！爸斏鲗Υ北磉_為形容詞短語be cautius abut，后接賓語“每一個決定”，可表達為名詞every reslutin；“我們做的”表達為we make，修飾every reslutin，為限制性定語從句，先行詞為物，且在從句中作賓語，關(guān)系代詞that，也可省略，從句中用一般現(xiàn)在時，表經(jīng)常性?！耙驗椤北磉_為連接詞because，引導原因狀語從句；“失之毫厘，差以千里”，根據(jù)所給詞difference，表達為ne false step will make a great difference”，敘述一般真理可用情態(tài)動詞will，后接動詞短語make adifference，作賓語。結(jié)合其他漢語提示，故翻譯為：N matter hw significant r insignificant the matter at hand is, we shuld be cautius abut every reslutin (that) we make, becasue ne false step will make a great difference./Hwever significant r insignificant the matter at hand is, we shuld be cautius abut every reslutin (that) we make, becasue ne false step will make a great difference.
