(即使是看到一朵美麗的花或收到朋友的支持短信這樣的小事,也要記錄下你的美好時刻)”具體指出很美好的小事也值得記錄,空處應(yīng)該是建議及時記錄下那些積極的想法,因此G項“S each time a happy r hpeful thught cmes int yur head, write it dwn.

The first ATM was the brainchild f an enterprising Turkish-American inventr Luther Gerge Simjian. When the idea f an autmated banking machine struck him, he registered 20 patents befre any bank agreed t give it a trial run. It is easy t assume that the inventr f such a ppular machine was laughing all the way t the bank. 11 Within six mnths f its peratin in New Yrk in 1939, the device was remved due t lack f custmer acceptance.
It was nt until 1967, nearly 30 years later, that Barclays Bank, in a careful launch, rlled ut a self-service machine in Lndn, England, which prved successful. 12 The first cash machine relied n custmers’ use f prepaid tkens (代幣) t get envelpes with a fixed amunt f cash inside.
13 The banks’ principle was seemingly custmer service. But it wuld be flish t minimize the many advantages that cash machines prvided t the banks themselves. By the late 1970s, the highest fixed cst fr the average large bank was its branches. The greatest variable cst and lss t prfits were its staff. Bank accunts swiftly recgnized that self-service peratins culd reduce bank branch staff cst by70 percent.
Experts quickly determined that public acceptance f ATMs cunted n cnvenience, simplicity, speed, security and trust. 14 Fr maximum efficiency, ATMs had t be lcated near public transprt r in a shpping mall, nt at a branch. The busier and mre crwded the lcatin, bviusly, the better. Nw, rughly 75 percent f all cash prvided by banks t their custmers cmes frm cash machines. 15 .
Public acceptance f depsits (存款) by machine was significantly slwer than custmers’ usage f ATMs fr withdrawals. In general, it seems that custmers smetimes still prefer and trust an ver-the-cunter transactin (交易) fr depsits.
A.Lcatin, in particular, was a key factr.
B.His cash machine, hwever, didn’t prve durable.
C.The device was relatively primitive, at least by tday’s standards.

12.下文“The first cash machine relied n custmers’ use f prepaid tkens (代幣) t get envelpes with a fixed amunt f cash inside.(第一臺自動取款機依靠顧客使用預(yù)付代幣來獲得裝有固定數(shù)量現(xiàn)金的信封)”介紹了第一臺自動取款機的工作原理:用預(yù)付代幣來換取現(xiàn)金信封,是對C項“The device was relatively primitive, at least by tday’s standards.(這個裝置相對來說比較原始,至少以今天的標準來看是這樣)”的說明,說明第一臺自動取款機比較原始的工作原理,上下文語意連貫。故選C項。
13.下文“The banks’ principle was seemingly custmer service. But it wuld be flish t minimize the many advantages that cash machines prvided t the banks themselves. By the late 1970s, the highest fixed cst fr the average large bank was its branches. The greatest variable cst and lss t prfits were its staff. Bank accunts swiftly recgnized that self-service peratins culd reduce bank branch staff cst by70 percent.(銀行的原則似乎是客戶服務(wù)。但是,低估自動取款機給銀行自身帶來的諸多好處是愚蠢的。到20世紀70年代末,大型銀行的平均固定成本最高的是其分支機構(gòu)。最大的可變成本和利潤損失是它的員工。銀行賬戶很快意識到,自助服務(wù)可以將銀行分行的員工成本降低70%)”說明了自動取款機給銀行帶來的諸多好處,解釋了G項“Sn afterwards, many ther banks became admittedly champins f the cash machine.(不久之后,許多其他銀行成為公認的自動提款機的擁護者)”中描述的這一現(xiàn)象,許多銀行為了獲益開始使用自動提款機,上下文語意連貫。故選G項。
14.下文“Fr maximum efficiency, ATMs had t be lcated near public transprt r in a shpping mall, nt at a branch. The busier and mre crwded the lcatin, bviusly, the better.(為了最大限度地提高效率,自動取款機必須設(shè)在公共交通附近或購物中心,而不是在分行。顯然,地點越繁忙、越擁擠越好)”指出自動取款機需要設(shè)在公共交通附近或購物中心,是對A項“Lcatin, in particular, was a key factr.(尤其是地理位置,是一個關(guān)鍵因素)”的舉例說明,說明地理位置的重要作用。故選A項。
15.上文“Nw, rughly 75 percent f all cash prvided by banks t their custmers cmes frm cash machines.(現(xiàn)在,銀行提供給客戶的現(xiàn)金中,大約75%來自自動取款機)”談及自動取款機的普及和廣泛使用,F(xiàn)項“Devices riginally dismissed by the public are nw recgnized as essential institutins.(最初被公眾忽視的設(shè)備現(xiàn)在被認為是不可或缺的設(shè)施)”承接上文,總結(jié)自動取款機命運的變化,上下文語意連貫。故選F項。

【導(dǎo)語】這是一篇說明文。文章主要介紹了幾個可以幫助拓寬思維方式的技巧。
16.空前提到“Being pen t dissenting (持異議的) pinins is nt the nly way t think utside the bx.(對持異議的觀點保持開放的態(tài)度不是唯一一種創(chuàng)造性思考的方法)”,C項“一些小技巧可以幫助拓寬我們的思維方式”能夠承上啟下,是說還有別的一些技巧,且C項中“techniques”與空前一句中“way”呼應(yīng)。故選C項。
17.根據(jù)空前“Fr sme peple, small changes might wrk, fr example, rerganizing ur desk r taking a new rute t wrk.(對一些人來說,小的改變可能會起作用,例如,重新整理我們的辦公桌或選擇一條新的上班路線)”可知,空處承接上文,指出對于其他人來說情況是怎樣的,F(xiàn)項中的“fr thers”和上文的“Fr sme peple”對應(yīng)。由此可知,F(xiàn)項“然而,對于其他人來說,更大的變化,如新工作或婚姻是必需的”能夠承接上文,符合語境。故選F項。
18.空前提到“In ther wrds, we shuld lk at them as if we’d never seen them.(換句話說,我們應(yīng)該像從未見過它們一樣,來看待它們)”,G項““初學(xué)者的思維”讓我們對經(jīng)驗保持開放,盡管我們可能擁有任何知識”,是說明空前提到的方法的好處,空后內(nèi)容是對G項中的“Beginners’ mind”進行舉例說明,上下文銜接緊密,故選G項。
19.空處位于句首,是段落主題句,根據(jù)本段內(nèi)容“The mere presence f a grup f peple with diverse experiences, views and backgrunds in ur everyday life creates an atmsphere in which peple can better respnd t change.(在我們的日常生活中,一群有著不同經(jīng)歷、觀點和背景的人的存在創(chuàng)造了一種氛圍,人們可以更好地應(yīng)對變化)”及“Because they are key drivers f the develpment f new ideas and slutins.(因為它們是新思想和解決辦法發(fā)展的關(guān)鍵驅(qū)動因素)”可知,本段主要說差異的好處。由此可知,A項“尋找差異也有幫助”適合作本段主旨句,符合語境。故選A項。
20.根據(jù)空后“They can be thse that are ging well r fr which we are grateful.(它們可以是那些進展良好或者我們所感激的事情)”可知,D項“花一些時間來考慮生活中美好的事情”能夠銜接下文,空后的They指代D項中“the beautiful things”。故選D項。

21.根據(jù)下文“Hwever, there’s a grwing cncern that watching t many Shrts can affect children’s brains.(然而,越來越多的人擔(dān)心看太多短片會影響孩子的大腦)”中“Hwever”可知,上下文有轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系,下文講短視頻的問題:會影響孩子的大腦”,G項“They’re brief attentin-grabbing vides that can be entertaining and addictive.(它們是簡短的引人注目的視頻,可以使人愉快和入迷)”講短視頻的魅力,與下文構(gòu)成轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系。故選G項。
22.上文“A study was cnducted t investigate the impact f Shrts n the teenage brains.(一項研究調(diào)查了短視頻對青少年大腦的影響)”提到一個關(guān)于短視頻對青少年大腦的影響的研究,F(xiàn)項“It revealed that these vides are persnalized, selected and fed t users.(它揭示這些視頻是個性化的,經(jīng)過挑選并提供給用戶的)”承接上文,說明研究的結(jié)果,句中“It”指代上文“A study”,上下文語意連貫。故選F項。

【導(dǎo)語】這是一篇說明文。文章介紹了無為的生活方式,它能幫助人們減緩壓力,提升幸福感。
26.由上文“As a psychlgist with mre than 15 years f experience, I’ve seen hw “hustle (忙碌) culture” can have a harmful effect n peple. But a2 ,000 - year - ld Chinese cncept, “wu wei”, can help us lead mre balanced, fulfilling and successful lives. “Wu wei” emphasizes taking actin when necessary, but nt pushing yurself with excessive effrt and tensin. (作為一個有超過15年經(jīng)驗的心理學(xué)家,我已經(jīng)看到了“忙碌文化”是如何對人們產(chǎn)生有害影響的。但是,2000年前的中國觀念“無為”可以幫助我們過上更平衡、更充實、更成功的生活?!盁o為”強調(diào)在必要的時候采取行動,而不是用過度的努力和緊張來強迫自己。)”可知,接下來的句子可能會描述這樣做的好處或效果。G選項“Research has shwn that it can help lwer stress and anxiety (研究表明,它可以幫助降低壓力和焦慮)”能承接上文,說明了“無為”理念對心理健康的積極影響。故選G。
27.這里需要一個段落主題句,根據(jù)下文“Let’s say yu’re thrwing a big party. Instead f wrrying abut every detail, practicing “wu wei” means understanding that things may nt g exactly as planned. When yu face a challenge, ask yurself whether yu have cmplete cntrl ver the utcme. If yu dn’t, make peace with it and mve n. (假設(shè)你要舉辦一個大型派對。與其擔(dān)心每一個細節(jié),練習(xí)“無為”意味著理解事情可能不會完全按計劃進行。當你面對挑戰(zhàn)時,問問自己是否能完全控制結(jié)果。如果你不喜歡,那就接受它,繼續(xù)前進。)”可知,下文提到面對挑戰(zhàn)時應(yīng)考慮是否能控制結(jié)果,不能則應(yīng)接受并繼續(xù)前進,這體現(xiàn)了接受現(xiàn)實的態(tài)度。因此,E選項“Accept things as they are(接受事物本來的樣子)”能概括本段主旨,適合作為這一段的開頭。故選E。
28.由上文“Allw things t unfld in their wn natural way, withut frcing the utcme. Knw that nthing is ever perfect. If yu’re learning a new language r playing an instrument fr the first time, prepare t make mistakes. (允許事情以自然的方式展開,不要強迫結(jié)果。要知道沒有什么是完美的。如果你是第一次學(xué)習(xí)一門新語言或演奏一種樂器,準備好犯錯誤。)”可知,上文提到在學(xué)習(xí)新語言或首次演奏樂器時準備犯錯,可以推斷出接下來會講述如何對待這些錯誤。A選項“Yu’ll learn frm them (你會從中學(xué)到東西)”能承接上文,指出犯錯是學(xué)習(xí)過程的一部分。故選A。
29.由上文“Perfrm mindfulness. (執(zhí)行正念)”和下文“Take ntice f all the little details arund yu. Hw des the sun feel n yur skin?

(注意你周圍所有的小細節(jié)。太陽照在你的皮膚上感覺怎么樣?聽聽大自然的聲音,比如鳥鳴和樹葉的沙沙聲,或者觀察花朵的形狀和顏色。當你以一種友好而好奇的方式關(guān)注當下發(fā)生的事情時,“無為”就容易多了。)”可知,本段落討論的是正念,因此需要一個引入正念概念的句子。D選項“Mindfulness means being aware f yur thughts and feelings withut judgement (正念意味著在不加評判的情況下意識到自己的思想和感受)”正是對正念的定義,適合引出正念練習(xí)的討論,能承上啟下,符合題意。故選D。
30.由上文“If yu are depressed, yu are living in the past. If yu are anxius, yu are living in the future. (如果你感到沮喪,你就活在過去?!比绻憬箲],你就活在未來。)”可知,結(jié)合前面的邏輯結(jié)構(gòu),此處應(yīng)填入與活在當下相關(guān)的選項。F選項“If yu are at peace (如果你內(nèi)心平和)”與后半句“yu are living in the present (你正活在當下)”形成完整的條件關(guān)系,且符合前文邏輯。故選F。

31.下文“Having a clear bjective paired with an awareness f yur audience will narrw yur fcus. (擁有一個清晰的目標,加上對聽眾的了解,將有助于集中你的注意力。)”說明要明確溝通目標并了解聽眾,空格處需要一個與此相一致的選項,因此A項“Identify a cmmunicatin gal. (確定一個溝通目標。)”中的關(guān)鍵詞gal和本段相符,故選A。
32.下文“In fact, the best speakers maintain audience interest by demnstrating cnnectins amng specific pints, ideas, fr example. (事實上,最好的演講者通過展示特定點和想法之間的聯(lián)系來保持聽眾興趣。)”說明優(yōu)秀的講話需要有一定的邏輯結(jié)構(gòu),因此F項“A clear structure enhances cmprehensin and engagement. (清晰的結(jié)構(gòu)增強理解和參與度。)”與下文一致,故選F。
33.下文“Yu shuld d the ppsite: fcus n listening s that yu can better understand the in-the-mment needs and interests f yur cnversatin partners and respnd mre effectively. (你應(yīng)該做相反的事情:專注于傾聽,這樣你就能更好地理解對話伙伴的即時需求和興趣,并更有效地回應(yīng)。)”說明在談話中,我們應(yīng)該更加注重傾聽而不是說話,因此G項“Mst peple bsess ver what t say during imprmptu encunters. (大多數(shù)人在即興場合過于糾結(jié)于該說什么。)”與下文的d the ppsite邏輯相符,故選G。
34.下文“Listeners are mre likely t trust and apprve f yu when yu speak like a human being rather than an actr r a rbt. (當你像一個人而不是演員或機器人那樣說話時,聽眾更可能信任和贊同你。)”說明想要讓對方更加信任自己,我們不應(yīng)該像機器人那樣發(fā)揮完美,機械回答,應(yīng)該更像人類一樣,有一些小錯誤,因此C項“Dn’t let the perfect be the enemy f the gd. (不要讓完美成為好的敵人。)”與下文相一致,故選C。
35.下文“Frtunately, a measure f experimentatin thught, and practice f the skills can make imprmptu speaking pprtunities yur time t shine. (幸運的是,一些實驗性思考和技能實踐可以使即興演講機會成為你發(fā)光的時刻。)”可知通過這些小技巧,可以讓人們在談話中發(fā)揮出色,從而就不會緊張,因此D項“It’s being s nervus that we struggle with the talks. (正是因為我們太緊張,所以我們在談話中掙扎。)”與下文相一致,故選D。

This is because in rder t explain smething clearly t smene else, yu have t have a thrugh grasp f it yurself. Fr example, giving a presentatin t fellw students will require yu first t have an excellent understanding f the tpic and then t put tgether materials frm which the thers can learn.(有時你可能會發(fā)現(xiàn),如果你必須向別人解釋一個概念,你學(xué)東西會更容易。這是因為為了向別人清楚地解釋一些事情,你自己必須對它有一個徹底的掌握。例如,給同學(xué)做報告需要你首先對主題有一個很好的理解,然后把其他人可以學(xué)習(xí)的材料放在一起)”可知,該段主要講向別人解釋一個概念時,學(xué)東西會更容易些,因為為了向別人清楚地解釋一些事情,你自己必須對它有一個徹底的掌握。A選項“向他人解釋”能夠概括本段主旨,選項中“Explaining t thers”與下文第一句中“explain a cncept t smene else”表達一致。故選A。
44.根據(jù)上文“This methd means that rather than reading things in bks, try t experience things in real life.(這種方法的意思是,與其讀書本上的東西,不如去體驗現(xiàn)實生活中的東西)”可知,空格前說的是與其讀書本上的東西,不如去體驗現(xiàn)實生活中的東西;G選項“例如,你可以進行科學(xué)實驗或觀察化學(xué)反應(yīng)是如何進行的”承接上文,對如何體驗現(xiàn)實生活中的東西進行舉例說明,符合語境,故選G。
45.由小標題“Tests and mck exams (模擬考試)”以及根據(jù)后文“If yu’re the srt f persn wh benefits frm these srts f challenges, yu culd try asking yur teacher, parents r study buddies t set a mck exam t test what yu’ve learned n a particular tpic.(如果你是那種從這些挑戰(zhàn)中受益的人,你可以試著讓你的老師、父母或?qū)W習(xí)伙伴設(shè)置一個模擬考試來測試你在某個特定主題上學(xué)到了什么)”可知,本段建議那種從這些挑戰(zhàn)中受益的人,可以試著讓自己的老師、父母或?qū)W習(xí)伙伴設(shè)置一個模擬考試來測試你在某個特定主題上學(xué)到了什么。因此,前面應(yīng)該是說考試方面的事情;E選項“有些人喜歡它們,因為它們?yōu)槌晒μ峁┝藦姶蟮膭恿??!敝赋鲇行┤讼矚g考試是因為考試給予他們成功的動力,下文中的the srt f persn wh benefits frm these srts f challenges指從考試中獲得成功動力的人,選項中的“them”指代標題中的“Tests and mck exams”,由此可知,E選項符合語境。故選E。
