21、Your emotion helps you make sense of the world. At the core of an emotion is a subjective experience of the valence of it — what emotion scientists call “affect” (情感). Generally speaking, affect is what we are most focused on. Do you have chocolate cake in front of you? That’s good! Do you see a spider on the table! That’s bad!

Your affective reactions tell you which experiences are desirable, and which aren’t, but the total emotional experience includes all you do and think. You can learn a lot by observing and describing them. You can also learn a lot by appreciating their secret life.

The problem is: the affective features of emotions tend to dominate. Our subjective valence of emotion is almost all we can see. When emotions are only about what is pleasant or unpleasant in subjective experience right now, the more important features of emotion disappear.

If you can slow down and expand; if you stop running or clinging (沉浸其中) and adopt a sense of curiosity, emotions become more subtle and different. When fear comes up, don’t walk away so that fear dissipates. Instead, stay. Allow yourself to feel the nervousness, the sweating, and everything else that comes along with it. It is one of the hardest things to do in life, but it’s also one of the most rewarding. If you run, you are telling basic parts of your brain, “I guess this threat really was real. I better stay away from it.” You are training yourself to fear, regardless of that situation. If you cling, you are saying, “Escape from this emotion is a threat”, and since it is not a happy experience, happiness slips through your hands like sand.

Note that you can not fool yourself. Just allow the full emotion. You will never enter into their secret life until you stop running or clinging. To control your life, you need to actively train your emotions to be your ally (同盟). Observe. Describe. Appreciate. Do that and you may find you have allies for healthy living that were there all along.

A．To explain the complex response of emotions.

B．To show the subjective experience of emotions.

22、Famous Irish poet Oscar Wilde(1854-1900) once wrote: “Ah! Realize your youth while you have it.” He pointed out the important truth about how precious youth is in one’s journey through life.

However, the popular internet slang word foxi or “Buddhist” is challenging this norm by encouraging young people to remain calm and peaceful and avoid conflict as much as possible.

The phrase was reportedly created in Japan in 2014 to describe young men who no longer bother to start relationships with women or follow someone else’s life path. They prefer to stay in their own peaceful world without being disturbed and care little about passion and success.

Now, Chinese internet users are pairing the phrase with other words to describe a similar mindset. For example, “Buddhist students” are those who study just the right amount—they don’t cut class, but they don’t burn the midnight oil, either. There are also “Buddhist parents”, who interfere little with their children’s lives and let them develop however they like—the opposite of “helicopter parents”.

In this fast-changing and competitive world, it’s only natural that people are seeking a spiritual anchor(支柱).

However, some would compare foxi with “demotivation culture”—a phrase that describes young people who feel aimless and powerless. They say that foxi actually reflects the reality that young people are losing their will to fight. They are pretending to keep a healthy and wise attitude toward failure simply because they’re incapable of succeeding.

But no matter what, there is one thing that “Buddhist youngsters” should keep in mind: You may want to keep a calm mindset regarding failure, but you should also be passionate and positive about school, work and life.

After all, Wilde also wrote: “Live the wonderful life that is in you! Let nothing be lost upon you. Be always searching for new excitements. Be afraid of nothing.

【1】The author begins with the poet Oscar’s words to ______.

A. bring in the main topic

B. stress the importance of youth

C. advise readers to enjoy youth

D. introduce a famous poet to readers

【2】What may be the behavior of “helicopter parents”?

A. They give few suggestions to their children.

B. They interfere their children’s life as they like.

C. They hope their children can do what they are into.

D. They don’t push their children to burn the midnight oil.

【3】Why does the author refer to “demotivation culture” in the sixth paragraph?

A. He simply wants to compare it with Buddhist.

B. He likes foxi better than demotivation culture.

C. He wishes young people to know more about it.

D. He indicates the negative effect of foxi on young people.

【4】What advice does the author give to “Buddhist youngsters”?

A. They should confront life positively.

B. They should be a true Buddhist person.

C. They should keep calm in face of failure.

D. They should be full of passion about everything.

23、   Research shows students learn better when they’re well nourished. Healthy eating has been linked to higher grades, better memory, faster information processing and improved health leading to better school attendance, according to registered dietitian Elisa Zied, author of Feed Your Family Right. On the contrary, unhealthy eating habits can negatively affect learning. Researchers have studied many areas related to eating and learning.

Skipping breakfast can have a negative impact on learning. A higher percentage of breakfast eaters passed a biology exam in one study of college students. It’s also important to eat a high-quality breakfast. In a study of students between the ages of twelve and thirteen, the average mark increased as breakfast quality improved.

Even with breakfast, the brain can run out of fuel before lunch. In one study of students between the ages of seven and nine, having a mid-morning snack improved memory. The children who ate a smaller breakfast and lunch but consumed a mid-morning snack experienced a smaller decline in immediate and delayed memory. Attention wasn’t affected, however. Zied recommends yogurt with blueberries; this fruit has been proven to be linked to better memory in studies. A hard-boiled egg is also a good snack choice.

Kids who eat healthily are more likely to attend school. Without proper nutrition and adequate calories, students often don’t have enough energy to power the brain, resulting in tiredness and learning problems. In fact, alertness(机敏) improved significantly in students eating breakfast in one study of high school students published in the journal Pediatrics.

A study of public school students published in the Journal of School Health linked high intake of sweetened drinks, such as sugary sodas, to lower scores in math tests. A diet high in junk food and sugary sodas is also linked to childhood obesity, which could result in lower cognitive(认知的) functioning, according to the Yale University research. On the other hand, students with healthy eating habits are less likely to be overweight and more likely to learn well.

【1】What is an effective way for students to improve their memory?

A.Eating a big breakfast on a regular basis.

B.Staying away from junk food in daily life.

C.Eating something healthy at about 10:00 am

D.Adding yogurt with strawberries to their daily diet.

【2】What can we learn from the fourth paragraph?

A.Students will have better attendance at school after eating healthily.

B.Students will have a good performance as long as they are well fed.

C.A high-quality breakfast will make a difference to students, learning.

D.Every student has a strong awareness of eating breakfast.

【3】What would happen to students who eat much junk food?

A.They would become less confident at school.

B.They would grow too overweight to work out.

C.They would become unwilling to attend school.

D.They would fall behind other students at school.

【4】What can be the best title for the text?

A.The impacts of eating habits on students’ learning

B.The advantages of healthy eating habits

C.Some suggestions on how to learn better

D.The link between diets and learning

24、Miss a step when walking down the stairs and your legs will attempt to recover your balance after the unexpected fall—but how? The key to remaining upright seems to be in the way your leg and foot muscles(肌肉)are activated.

“One of the things we know about human movement is that our ability to stay on our feet upright is pretty remarkable, but we don’t understand a lot about how we achieve this,” says Taylor Dick at the University of Queensland in Australia.

To figure it out, she and her colleagues conducted an experiment that involved attempting to make people fall over. The researchers had 10 people jump in place on top of platforms that were sitting on a device measuring the forces from each foot individually. They then removed the platforms without warning. As participants tried to keep their balance, the researchers used sensors on their legs to track muscle activity and changes in muscle length.

They determined that experiencing an unexpected unexpected drop automatically increased the timing between when our muscles in our legs and feet first activated and when they reached their shortest length. This in turn enabled the foot muscles to absorb energy more effectively, allowing us to recover from the drop. The team also found that while opposing muscles normally contract(收缩)in turn when walking, both groups of muscles contract at the same time during an unexpected drop.

In cases where you aren’t able to successfully recover and end up falling, she says it may be because a different strategy is used, one that relies on signals travelling from your leg muscles to your brain and then back to your leg muscles. This may take more time than it does to travel the distance to the new “lower” ground.

Dick hopes that this research ca inform the design of lower limb(肢)assistive devices, which can help people with disabilities go up or down stairs and move over rough ground.

【1】What did the researchers do to the participants?

A．They helped them during their fall.

B．They carefully counted their steps.

C．They tracked their leg muscle activity.

D．They pushed them off the platforms.

【2】What’s paragraph 4 mainly about?

A．How foot muscles contract.

B．The findings of the research.

C．Comments on the experiment.

D．How to increase muscle strength.

【3】What does Taylor Dick expect of the research?

A．It can inspire people to do exercise.

B．It can build up patients’ confidence.

C．It can bring assistance to the disabled.

D．It can encourage more brain training.

【4】From which is the text most probably taken?

A．An advertisement.

B．A health guideline.

C．A physics textbook.

D．A science magazine.
