“John Cotter’s Losing Music is a powerful addition to the classic memoir (自传),” said Gretchen Cherington in
The Millions. The first-time author has a strange disease that causes severe hearing loss, and Cotter shows well how
destructive (破坏性的) the condition can be. Music first began disappearing, then the sound of the ocean. Beginning
when he was 30, a ringing in his ears came and went, sometimes becoming so loud that it was painful. As his
condition got worse significantly, he found how the loss of normal hearing separated him quickly from the whole
world of pleasure. “The feeling is like losing life’s colour.” After detailing how he fell into complete despair, his
“hard-hitting, beautiful, deep-going” book also reveals how he managed to rediscover a certain sense of satisfaction
again.
“The most memorable sections in Losing Music are about Cotter’s daily struggles” said Lisa Zeidner in The
Washington Post. As a poet and essayist who was working as a part-time writing professor when his hearing troubles
began, he is lyrical about sounds we take for granted: rain beating windows, old-fashioned heating hissing (嘶嘶响), a
cat drinking water. Still, “he reserves his most passionate writing for music,” providing poetically precise descriptions
of much of the music he has loved, and connecting the loss of those experiences to the loneliness of being deaf. By 33,
his hearing was gone. Hearing aids and medication helped begin a partial improvement.
“Cotter ultimately finds the best hope for a life without music: to get right with silence,” said Melissa Holbrook
Pierson in The Wall Street Journal. There can be no happy ending in a book about hearing loss, but in writing it, he
“turned difficulty into quiet success.” Losing Music comes closest to capturing what’s behind music “by nearly being
music itself.” Even though his hearing has failed him, “evidence that Cotter’s ear is still keen for the beautiful tune of
language sings from every page.”
24. What do we know about Cotter from Paragraph 1?
A. Losing Music is his first work. B. He knows well about his illness.
C. The ringing in his ears was like music. D. He drives away loneliness by writing.
25. What impresses Lisa Zeidner most about Cotter in Losing Music?
A. His keen sense of music. B. His position as a professor.
C. His daily hardship and effort. D. His detailed style of writing,
26. How does Cotter finally deal with his illness?
A. He tries his best to cure it. B. He comes to terms with it.
C. He ignores the inconvenience of it. D. He collects evidence about it.
27. What is the text?
A. A diary entry. B. A book review. C. A news report. D. A biography.

What you believe in has a magic way of shaping your reality. The concept of “you can become what you believe”
is more than just a motivational quote. It’s a truth that stresses the remarkable influence of your mindset ( 心态) on
your journey through life. At the heart of this idea lies the distinction between two fundamental mindsets: the growth
mindset and the fixed mindset.
The growth mindset is a mindset that embraces the idea that abilities and intelligence can be developed through
devotion, effort, learning, and perseverance. Those with a growth mindset grow better on challenges, viewing them as
opportunities to learn and improve. Effort is seen as a path to mastery, and setbacks are viewed as stepping stones on
the journey to success. Criticism is taken constructively as a chance to improve skills, and the success of others serves
as inspiration and a blueprint for one’s own progress.
In contrast, the fixed mindset is characterized by the belief that your abilities, intelligence, and talents are fixed
characteristics that cannot be changed. People with a fixed mindset tend to avoid challenges, fearing that failure might
reveal their limitations. They avoid pushing themselves because they see it as a sign of their weakness. Criticism is
frequently interpreted as a personal attack, and envy or anger can be stirred up by others’ achievement. In nature, a
fixed mindset limits individuals to their current abilities and limits their potential for growth.
The power of a growth mindset lies in its capacity to drive positive change. By believing in the potential for
growth and improvement, individuals open themselves to a world of possibilities. “If you imagine less, less will be
what you, undoubtedly deserve. Do what you-love end don’t stop until you get what you love. Work as hard as you
can, and think big, “Debbie Millman, a writer, designer, educator, artist and brand consultant said.
28. What is the author’s argument?
A. People’s mindsets are diverse. B. One’s heart affects one’s mindset.
C. Mindset determines what one can be. D. Mindset depends on one’s character.
29. What does Paragraph 2 mainly tell us about the growth mindset?
A. Its limitation. B. Its possibility. C. Its disadvantages, D. Its characteristics.
30. What way does the author use to illustrate the two different mindsets?
A. Giving examples. B. Making comparisons. C. Conducting analysis. D. Quoting famous sayings.
31. What might be Debbie Millman’s suggestion?
A. Think carefully before you act. B. Imagine less and practice more.
C. Stay true to yourself and never change. D. Pursue your dreams and never give up.
D
The combined quantity of water on Earth has varied over the course of our planet’s geological history, and it still
does.
Today, Earth includes some 1,386 million cubic kilometres of water, a volume that includes water in oceans,
lakes and rivers, plus ground water, vapour in the atmosphere, and the frozen water of glaciers and ice caps. On the
young Earth-some four billion years ago-vast quantities of water were added to the planet by ice-containing comets (a
mass of ice and dust that moves around the sun and looks like a bright star with a tail) that struck us, eventually
making our world a “blue planet”. But such events became increasingly rare in Earth’s more recent history, and today
we are in an age during which Earth is losing water.
The water loss is due to the fact that particles (微粒) sometimes escape Earth’s gravity to travel into space. This
is particularly true of the light hydrogen atoms that form part of water molecules (分子) together with oxygen. Every
time the atmosphere loses hydrogen, we lose one of the building blocks of water. Scientists estimate that Earth loses
about 3kg of hydrogen per second. At this pace, Earth would run out of water in three billion years—but that assumes
that we don’t get any new water supplies.
New water need not come from space-it might come from the inside of the Earth. At depths below 50km,
minerals contain water that is not reckoned within the water cycle, Some of it dates back to Earth’s formation; the rest
is part of slow geological exchange between the planet’s layers. When Earth’s plates sink and melt, deep minerals can
release these bound water molecules so that they can subsequently rise to the surface via volcanic eruptions, adding to
the planet’s overall water resources.
32. How did Earth become a “blue planet” in geological time?
A. By getting water from comets B. By making use of glaciers.
C. By releasing its inside water. D. By storing water in the ocean.
33. What is the scientists’ attitude towards the water loss on Earth?
A. Serious. B. Regretful. C. Uncertain. D. Unworried.
34. The underlined word “reckoned” in Paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to “________”.
A. locked B. displayed C. counted D. marked
35. What can be the best title for the text?
A. Where Can Water Be Stored? B. Could Earth Run Out of Water?
C. How Can New Water Be Found? D. Will There Be More Water on Earth?

Reading the room gives you an edge—no matter who you’re talking to
What’s the difference between a successful presentation and a not-so-successful one? Skilled public speakers
aren’t just good at putting words together. 36 That skill doesn’t just make people good at public speaking. It’s
helpful in all kinds of situations-whether in a one-on-one meeting or a networking event. Here are several techniques
you can practice to get better at reading the room.
Ask for feedback. You don’t have to wait until the conversation is over to find out how it went. 37 For
example, after covering a complex topic, pause and ask your listeners if it’s okay to continue. If you’re losing their
attention, let them take a quick break.
Don’t forget about basic needs. Even the most impressive speaker won’t keep an audience engaged if they’re
hungry or tired, If your listeners are disengaged, offer them a break-or end the session early. 38
Learn to read unspoken implication. What are people doing while you’re speaking? Are they sighing, rolling
their eyes or smiling? 39 Sometimes, these gestures might include objects, like cellphones or tapping pencils. If
you see any of these, don’t step over it. Say something like, “Uh-oh-I see everyone’s checking their phones. Did I lose
you, or is it lunchtime?”
40 No skill can be got easily. Skills of reading the room also require some training to acquire. You can
work with a friend or coach to build your self-awareness. This skill can make you a more confident and effective
speaker.
When you learn to successfully read the room, you and your audience get more out of your conversation.
Reading the room helps you adjust in real time to make sure communication is clear.
A. They know how to read the room
B. Learning to read the room takes practice.
C. Ask someone else to remind you of the situation.
D. These can indicate how they’re receiving information.
E. Instead, you can get the feedback from the listeners’ expression.
F. There’s no point in sticking it out if your audience have lost their focus.
G. You can check in periodically to make sure you haven’t lost your audience.

阅读下面材料, 根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段, 使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I called my husband, Larry, saying that we were going to the opera again.
The joke was, the last time I made him go, he fell asleep. Even I had to admit it was a boring production. But
when someone gave us tickets to the all-time favourite Carmen I really thought he might enjoy it. When he nodded off
again, I let him sleep. I only woke him when his snoring became louder than the performance.
Larry and I have always had our basic values in common, but our interests are as far apart as, well, opera and
hockey (冰球). I love the arts, and he’s a huge sports fan, His big passion is NHL hockey. He’s shared season tickets
with his friends for years. But if he wanted me to go with him, we went.
We attended the games with other couples. The rest of our group were enthusiastic about the games, even the
women. They knew all the players and how to pronounce their four-syllable names.
I enjoyed participating in the national anthem; but that was the only thing I enjoyed about our hockey nights.
Instead of appreciating the good seats we had, I’d complain, “It’s cold in here!” My husband would offer me his
jacket, but I wouldn’t take it, When the game started, my phone would be on my lap. Most of the time, I’d be texting
or daydreaming. Sometimes, my texting would be interrupted when the home team scored. I knew they scored
because everyone jumped up and exchanged high-fives and fist bumps.
What was so exciting about a group of grown men on ice hitting something with a stick? It was beyond me, I
started to wonder. Why was I the only one not enjoying myself? Would I actually like this sport if I gave it a chance?
What if I tried to change my attitude? As I looked around at thousands of people cheering and getting increasingly
excited, I decided to at least give it a try-for my husband’s sake, if not for my own.
注意: 1. 续写词数应为 150 左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答
Soon I got to know the team, the rules and the excitement of scoring.
On my birthday, he suddenly announced, “I’m taking you to the opera.”
