We g thrugh life assuming we’re in charge f ur wn minds — until temptatin (誘惑) strikes. Few things better illustrate hw little cntrl we really have. Yu can knw exactly what yu shuld d (decline the secnd slice f cake r the third ccktail), but that hardly seems t matter when the urge arises. Mre self-discipline is rarely the answer, thugh. Instead, if yu can understand what’s ging n inside yur head when temptatin cmes, yu’ll be far better placed t make a healthier chice.
Smetimes, yu need t push yurself, the idea behind which, in psychlgy, is t make the better chice the easier chice.

Use StayFcused r similar apps t blck distracting websites. Change yur envirnment, and temptatin will be a nn-issue.
Fr every persn, behind every bad habit, there's a reasnable desire: sme peple eat r drink t much because they're lnely, r smke t get a break frm a busy schedule. Once yu’ve uncvered this underlying need, find a different way t meet it: call a friend; take a cffee break instead f a cigarette break. There’s nthing wrng with the need — nly with the way yu’re currently meeting it.
It’s a strange truth that we’ll break all srts f prmises t urselves — yet mst f us wuld never fail t shw up at a prearranged meeting with a friend. Invlve thers in yur temptatin-resistance effrts, whether it's asking smene t check in weekly t see if yu’re sticking t yur plan, r never ging shpping alne if yu’re subject t impulse purchases. Best f all, launch a jint plan, in which tw f yu decide t give up a bad habit. That turns a challenge int a fun game.

Calling vegetables and fruits “ugly” can be a recipe fr sales success, accrding t a new study.
A French supermarket chain made internatinal headlines when it began marketing misshapen prduce as “ugly” in 2014. Since then, fd stres arund the wrld have launched campaigns t sell “imperfect prduce”. Sme have been successful, while thers haven’t — but until nw, researchers hadn’t adequately explained why cnsumers rejected imperfect prduce, r what marketing apprach was mst likely t whet their appetites.
The researchers cnducted seven studies that tested the effects f “ugly” labeling by having participants purchase prduce at a farmer’s market and nline, and by examining peple’s impressins abut misshapen fds. Interestingly, they fund that cnsumers expected the imperfect prduce t be less tasty and even less nutritius than mre traditinally attractive fds.
But it’s nt all bad news fr unattractive fds. The researchers als fund that when the prduce is labeled “ugly”, cnsumer hesitancy disappears — and it’s nt because f humr r riginality. Calling items “ugly” signals t cnsumers that the nly difference between items is appearance, which makes them aware f their bias (偏見) and significantly increases their willingness t buy the less attractive prduce.
“We’re pinting t the surce f the rejectin,” explains Jhn Meredith, the lead researcher. “It makes peple aware f the limited nature f their bjectin t the unattractive prduce and makes it clear t cnsumers that there are n ther prblems in the prduce ther than attractiveness.”
The research als fund cnsumers spent mre n the misshapen prduce labeled “ugly” instead f “imperfect”. And even thugh the ugly prduce was sld at a 25 percent discunt, it turned ut t be mre prfitable fr sellers, as the cst f acquiring the ugly prduce was lwer. Hwever, if the price reductin was t sharp, participants expected the “ugly” fds t be f lw quality.
12. What is the new study mainly abut?
A. Fd quality.B. Cnsumer demand.
C. Marketing apprach.D. Bias against appearance.
13. What des the underlined phrase “whet their appetites” in paragraph 2 refer t?
A. Satisfy their need t eat better.B. Stimulate their desire f buying.
C. Encurage them t risk trying ut.D. Raise their cncerns abut nutritin.
14. Why are peple willing t buy ugly-labeled prduce withut hesitatin?
A. They are happy t spend less and have mre.
B. They are curius abut the special shapes f prduce.
C. They are attracted by the funny and creative idea f labeling.
D. They are led t believe ugly prduce has n quality prblems.
15. Which way helps fd sellers make mre prfit accrding t the study?
A. Call the ugly prduce “ugly”.B. Label the ugly prduce “imperfect”.
C. Grup the prduce by its attractiveness.D. Price the ugly prduce at a sharp discunt.

【語篇解讀】這是一篇說明文。文章介紹了研究表明，將丑陋的蔬菜和水果標上“丑陋”標簽可以增加消費者的購買意愿。
【12題詳解】
推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一段內(nèi)容“Calling vegetables and fruits “ugly” can be a recipe fr sales success, accrding t a new study.”（根據(jù)一項新的研究，稱蔬菜和水果“丑陋”可能是銷售成功的秘訣。）可知，一項新的研究表明，稱蔬菜和水果“丑陋”可能是銷售成功的秘訣，由此可知，稱蔬菜和水果“丑陋”是一種成功的營銷方法，這項新的研究主要是關于營銷方法的研究。故選C項。
【13題詳解】
詞義猜測題。根據(jù)畫線短語上句“researchers hadn’t adequately explained why cnsumers rejected imperfect prduce”（研究人員沒有充分解釋消費者拒絕不完美產(chǎn)品的原因）可知，研究者想知道為什么消費者拒絕不完美產(chǎn)品，由此可知，畫線短語所在句指的是研究者想知道什么樣的營銷方式能激發(fā)消費者購買不完美產(chǎn)品的欲望，“Stimulate their desire f buying”意為“激發(fā)他們的購買欲望”，能夠表達畫線短語在句中所要表達的意思。故選B項。
【14題詳解】
細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段關鍵句“Calling items “ugly” signals t cnsumers that the nly difference between items is appearance, which makes them aware f their bias (偏見) and significantly increases their willingness t buy the less attractive prduce.”（將商品稱為“丑陋”向消費者表明，商品之間的唯一區(qū)別在于外觀，這讓他們意識到自己的偏見并顯著增加了他們購買吸引力較低產(chǎn)品的意愿。）可知，將商品貼上“丑陋”標簽向消費者表明，商品之間的唯一區(qū)別在于外觀，質(zhì)量上沒有差別，這讓消費者放棄偏見，增加購買意愿，由此可知，人們會毫不猶豫地購買帶有丑陋標簽的產(chǎn)品是因為他們被引導相信丑陋的產(chǎn)品沒有質(zhì)量問題。故選D項。
【15題詳解】
推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段關鍵句“The research als fund cnsumers spent mre n the misshapen prduce labeled “ugly” instead f “imperfect”. And even thugh the ugly prduce was sld at a 25 percent discunt, it turned ut t be mre prfitable fr sellers, as the cst f acquiring the ugly prduce was lwer.”（研究還發(fā)現(xiàn)，消費者在標有“丑陋”而非“不完美”的畸形產(chǎn)品上花費更多。盡管丑陋的農(nóng)產(chǎn)品以25%的折扣出售，但事實證明，由于購買丑陋農(nóng)產(chǎn)品的成本較低，這對銷售商來說更有利可圖。）可知，將畸形產(chǎn)品貼上“丑陋”標簽，消費者更愿意購買，并且銷售商購買丑陋農(nóng)產(chǎn)品的成本較低，所以盡管丑陋的農(nóng)產(chǎn)品以25%的折扣出售，但對銷售商來說更有利可圖，由此可知，把丑陋的產(chǎn)品稱為“丑陋”可以幫助食品銷售商獲得更多利潤。故選A項。

D We Really Need Cash Anymre?
When the Cvid-19 pandemic spread arund the glbe, many banks tk actin. Peple were encuraged t avid using cash and make electrnic payments where pssible. 16 In the UK, the number f cntactless payments increased by 36% between 2020 and 2021.
17 After all, it cmes with many advantages. Fr a start, it’s safer, as cash is easily stlen. Credit and debit cards are t, but it’s pssible t trace payments and cancel the cards. Mbile payments are even mre secure. As well as that, all yur transactins(交易) are lgged, making recrd-keeping far simpler.
Hwever, it seems as if we are just nt ready t say gdbye t cash fr gd. Recent data shws that cash has made a cmeback since the cst f living started t rise steeply. That’s nt unusual since peple tend t prefer having paper mney at hand when times are hard. 18 But with electrnic payments, it’s harder t keep track f where yur mney is ging.
Even if cash payments d nt vanish entirely, ur ecnmies are changing t becme far less reliant n cash than they nce were. And while switching t electrnic payments is simple and cnvenient fr many peple, this isn’t true fr everyne. An increasing number f stres have stpped accepting cash payments altgether, meaning that such peple may becme mre marginalized (邊緣化). Mrever, alngside the decline in cash usage, the number f ATMs and lcal banks has drpped significantly. 19
Despite the ppularity f electrnic transactins, ne thing is clear: 20 And as cmpanies rush twards finding ever mre cnvenient transactin methds, it’s imprtant nt t abandn thse wh prefer t pay in the traditinal way.
A. The public respnded psitively.
B. Using ntes and cins helps peple budget.
C. It was the case during the Great Depressin.
D. Cashless transactins make it easier fr them t cllect data.
E. They wn’t becme the nly methd, at least in the near future.
F. Tday, the cashless ecnmy is becming mre and mre ppular.
G. This makes access t cash increasingly hard fr thse wh depend n it.
【答案】16. A 17. F 18. B 19. G 20. E
【語篇解讀】這是一篇議論文。本文探討了無現(xiàn)金交易經(jīng)濟流行背景下電子交易的優(yōu)點，但它不會是唯一的支付方式，現(xiàn)金交易將會繼續(xù)存在。
【16題詳解】
設空處位于段中，根據(jù)空處前文“When the Cvid-19 pandemic spread arund the glbe, many banks tk actin. Peple were encuraged t avid using cash and make electrnic payments where pssible. (當新冠肺炎疫情在全球蔓延時，許多銀行采取了行動。鼓勵人們避免使用現(xiàn)金，盡可能使用電子支付。)”，再結(jié)合空處后文“In the UK, the number f cntactless payments increased by 36% between 2020 and 2021.(在英國，2020年至2021年間，非接觸式支付的數(shù)量增長了36%。)”，由此可推斷設空處應該是銀行采取行動后，公眾使用電子支付的情況，A項“公眾反應積極。”符合題意。故選A。
【17題詳解】
設空處位于段首，屬于本段的主題句。根據(jù)本空下文“After all, it cmes with many advantages. (畢竟，它有很多優(yōu)點。)”，可知本段主要介紹無現(xiàn)金交易的優(yōu)點，并且本空和本段后文構(gòu)成因果關系。無現(xiàn)金交易有很多優(yōu)點，所以無現(xiàn)金經(jīng)濟正變得越來越流行。F項“如今，無現(xiàn)金經(jīng)濟越來越受歡迎?！狈项}意。故選F。
【18題詳解】
根據(jù)空前“Recent data shws that cash has made a cmeback since the cst f living started t rise steeply. That’s nt unusual since peple tend t prefer having paper mney at hand when times are hard. (最近的數(shù)據(jù)顯示，自從生活成本開始急劇上升以來，現(xiàn)金已經(jīng)卷土重來。這并不罕見，因為在困難時期，人們往往更喜歡手頭有紙幣。)”可知最近的數(shù)據(jù)顯示，自從生活成本開始急劇上升以來，現(xiàn)金已經(jīng)卷土重來，人們往往更喜歡手頭有紙幣。再結(jié)合后文“But with electrnic payments, it’s harder t keep track f where yur mney is ging. (但使用電子支付，很難跟蹤你的錢去了哪里。)”可知設空處與前文銜接連貫，與后文形成對比，即：使用紙幣與硬幣，人們清楚錢的去向，就能夠幫助人們預算，B項“使用紙幣和硬幣有助于人們制定預算?！狈项}意。故選B。
【19題詳解】
設空前文“Mrever, alngside the decline in cash usage, the number f ATMs and lcal banks has drpped significantly. (此外，隨著現(xiàn)金使用量的下降，自動取款機和當?shù)劂y行的數(shù)量也大幅下降。)”可知在現(xiàn)金使用量下降的同時，自動取款機和當?shù)劂y行的數(shù)量也在大幅下降，G項“這使得依賴現(xiàn)金的人越來越難以獲得現(xiàn)金。”符合題意，且與前文構(gòu)成因果關系，故選G。
【20題詳解】
根據(jù)本空所在的整句“Despite the ppularity f electrnic transactins, ne thing is clear: (盡管電子交易很受歡迎，但有一點是明確的)”可知，此句表轉(zhuǎn)折，而冒號則是對“ne thing is clear”的進一步解釋與說明，再結(jié)合空后“And as cmpanies rush twards finding ever mre cnvenient transactin methds, it’s imprtant nt t abandn thse wh prefer t pay in the traditinal way. (隨著公司爭相尋找更方便的交易方式，重要的是不要拋棄那些喜歡以傳統(tǒng)方式支付的人。)”可知，重要的是不要放棄那些喜歡用傳統(tǒng)方式付款的人，說明電子支付不會成為唯一的方法，現(xiàn)金支付不會消失，E項“至少在不久的將來，它們不會成為唯一的方法。”符合題意。故選E。
