A. possibility B. gloomy C. superficially D. challenge E.opposite F.unbalanceG. intelligently H. escape I. maximize J. false K.energeticIf you think about it, work-life balance is a strange

29、 aspiration for fulfilling life. Balance is about stasis(静止): if our lives were ever in balance parents happy, kids taken care of, work working then our thought would be to shout “Nobody move!” and pray all would stay perfect forever. This _11_ hope is made worse by the implication that work is bad,

30、 and life is good; we lose ourselves in work but find ourselves in life; we survive work, but live life. And so the challenge, we are told, is to balance the heaviness of work with the lightness of life.Yet work is not the_12_of life. It is instead a part of life just as family is, as are friends an

31、d hobbies. All of these aspects of living have their share of wonderful, uplifting moments and their share of_13_ moments that drag us down. The same is true of work, yet when we think of it as something bad in need of a counterweight, we lose sight of the_14_ for better. It seems more useful, then,

32、 to not try to balance the unbalanceable, but to treat work the same way you do life:_15_ what you love. Think of your lifes many different activities as threads. Some are black, some are grey and some are white. But some of these activities contain all the signs of love : before you do them, you fi

33、nd yourselves looking forward to them; while youre doing them, time speeds up and you find yourself involved ; and after youve done them, you feel_16_.These are your red threads, and our research reveals that 73% of us claim that we have the freedom to modify our job to fit our strengths better, but

34、 that only 18 % of us do so. Your_17_, then, is to use your red threads to_18_ change, over time, the content of your job, so that it contains more things that you love doing and fewer that youre aching(渴望) to_19_.The most helpful categories for us are not “work” and “life”. We should not struggle t

35、o balance the two. Instead, the best categories are “love” and “loathe(憎恨)”. Our goal should be to, little by little, week by week, intentionally_20_ all aspects of our work toward the former and away from the latter. Not simply to make us feel better, but so that our colleagues, our friends and our

36、 family can all benefit from us at our very best. We cant always do only what we love. But we can always find the love in what we do.【答案】11. J 12. E 13. B 14. A 15. I 16. K 17. D 18. G 19. H 20. F【解析】这是一篇议论文。本文作者论述了工作和生活的关系,告诉人们应该及时调节工作与生活之间的平衡。【11题详解】考查形容词。句意:工作是坏的,生活是好的,这种暗示使这种虚假的希望变得更糟。根据上文“Balan

37、ce is about stasis(静止): if our lives were ever in balance parents happy, kids taken care of, work working then our thought would be to shout “Nobody move!” and pray all would stay perfect forever. ”可知,工作生活停滞不前,祈祷一切完美的希望是错误的(false),形容词false意为“错误的”,作定语修饰名词hope。故选J项。【12题详解】考查名词。句意:然而工作并不是生活的对立面。根据该空前的定

38、冠词the可知,该空应该填名词;再根据下一句“It is instead a part of life.”可知,工作是生活的一部分,并不是生活的对立面(opposite)。名词opposite意为“对立面”。故选E项。【13题详解】考查形容词。句意:生活的所有这些方面都有精彩、振奋人心的时刻,也有拖累我们的沮丧时刻。根据该空前“wonderful, uplifting moments(精彩、振奋人心的时刻)”可知,该空意为“沮丧的,忧郁的”,与上文形成对比。形容词“gloomy”意为“沮丧的,忧郁的”, gloomy作定语修饰名词moments。故选B项。【14题详解】考查名词。句意:工作也是

39、如此,然而当我们把它看作是需要一个糟糕的事情来平衡时候,我们就忽略了更好的可能性。根据该空前的“of the”可知,该空应该填名词;再根据句意,该空意为“可能性”,名词possibility意为“可能性”,作介词of的宾语。故选A项。【15题详解】考查动词。句意:那么,似乎更有用的是,不要试图平衡这个失衡,而是像对待生活一样对待工作:最大限度地利用你所热爱的。结合选项及下文,尤其是“modify our job to fit our strengths better”可知,该空意为“最大限度地利用”,动词maximize意为“充分利用,最大限度地利用”,该句是祈使句,动词原形maximize置

40、于句首。故选I项。【16题详解】考查形容词。句意:但有些活动包含了热爱的所有迹象:在你做之前,你会发现自己很期待;当你在做的时候,时间会加快,你会发现自己投入其中;当你完成这些活动后,你会感到精力充沛。根据该空前的系动词feel可知,该空应该填形容词;再结合选项及上文“But some of these activities contain all the signs of love”可知,该空意为“精力充沛的”,形容词energetic意为“精力充沛的”。故选K项。【17题详解】考查名词。句意:那么,你的挑战是,随着时间的推移,用你的红线明智地改变你的工作内容,这样你喜欢做的事情就多了,而逃

41、避工作的痛苦就更少了。 根据上文,该句中的red threads指的是喜欢做的工作。再根据该空前是形容词性物主代词Your可知,该空应该填名词;再结合选项及上下文,尤其是“and our research reveals that 73% of us claim that we have the freedom to modify our job to fit our strengths better, but that only 18 % of us do so”可知,该空意为“挑战”,名词challenge 意为“挑战”。故选D项。【18题详解】考查副词。句意:那么,你的挑战是,随着时间的

42、推移,用你的红线明智地改变你的工作内容,这样你喜欢做的事情就多了,而逃避工作的痛苦就更少了。 根据上文,该句中的red threads指的是喜欢做的工作。分析句子结构可知,该空填应该填副词修饰东西change,再结合句意,该空意为“明智地”,副词intelligently意为“明智地,聪明地”,符合句意及语法结构。故选G项。【19题详解】考查动词。句意:那么,你的挑战是,随着时间的推移,用你的红线明智地改变你的工作内容,这样你喜欢做的事情就多了,而逃避工作的痛苦就更少了。根据上文该句中的red threads指的是喜欢做的工作。再根据该句中的“more things that you love

43、 doing”以及“fewer that youre aching”可知,and后句意为“逃避的事情就更少了”,ache to do sth.意为“渴望做某事”,因此,该空填动词原形escape。故选H项。【20题详解】考查动词。句意:我们的目标应该是,一点一点,一周一周,有意识地把我们工作的各个方面朝着前者而不是后者失衡。根据上文“We should not struggle to balance the two.”可知,该空意为“失衡”,动词unbalance意为“失衡”,副词intentionally作状语修饰谓语动词unbalance。故选F项。III. Reading Compreh

44、ension (45)Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context. Do you remember how you felt the first time you rode bike? What about your first heartbreak? _21_ moments and th

45、e emotions they arouse can resonate in our minds for decades, powerfully shaping who we are as individuals. But for those who experience severe trauma(创伤), such painful memories can leave people with life-changing mental conditions. So, what if traumatic memories did not have to cause so much _22_ ?

46、 For now, the work is happening in mice. Neuroscientists usually define a singular memory as an engram-a physical change in brain tissue _23_ a particular recollection. While at MIT in 2013, Steve Ramirez of Boston University and his research partner Xu Liu had a breakthrough: They were able to targ

47、et the cells that _24_ one engram in a mouses brain and then implant a false memory. In their work, mice _25_ in fear to a particular stimulus even when they had not been conditioned in advance. In their current work, Ramirez and his colleagues are investigating whether _26_ memories can be “overwri

48、tten” by positive ones. In their experiments, positive memories are created by putting male mice in cages with female ones for an hour, and negative memories are created by putting the mice in cages that deliver brief foot shocks. After a surgical operation on the mice, the researchers find that _27

49、_ positive memories while mouse is in a cage makes it less fearful. They think that this memory “retrainingmay be helping to _28_ some of the mouses trauma. _29_ , it is unclear whether those original fear memories are completely lost or just suppressed(抑制)._30_ Ramirezs team stresses that their wor

50、k in mice is preliminary(初步的), they see treatment potential for humans down the road. Those suffering from PTSD or depression could have their memories _31_ , for instance, so that they dont have a strong _32_ response to painful recollections.If its one day possible to alter human memory, who shoul

51、d be allowed to receive that treatment? And would the _33_ system be at a disadvantage if key witnesses and victims cannot remember a crime? These are questions New York University bioethicist Arthur Caplan says are worth thinking about before the technology is ready for human clinical settings. As

52、neuroscientists progress with their research, they say these _34_ issues are being taken into account. Ramirez sees the idea of _35_ memories as neither good nor bad. Like water, it just depends on how you use it.21. A. ForgettableB. MemorableC. SustainableD. Believable22. A. fruitB. differenceC. pa

C【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了神经科学家们在老鼠身上做实验,看是否可以改变大脑中有关痛苦的那些记忆,且该实验已经取得初步效果。【21题详解】考查形容词词义辨析。句意:那些记忆深刻时刻和他们激起的情感可以几十年在我们的头脑中产生共鸣,塑造着我们是谁。A.Forgettable 忘记了的;B.

56、Memorable记忆深刻的; C.Sustainable可持续的; D. Believable 可以相信的。根据上句“Do you remember how you felt the first time you rode bike?”(作者问第一次骑车的时候)可知,作者在讲过去的记忆。故选B。【22题详解】考查名词词义辨析。句意:如果这些创伤不会造成如此多的伤害,那会怎么样呢?A.fruit 水果;B.difference不同,影响; C.pain 痛苦; D.movement运动。根据上句“such painful memories can leave people with life-

57、changing mental conditions.(这些痛苦的记忆会给人们带来改变生活的精神状况。)“创伤”应该是痛苦的经历,所以会造成“痛苦”。 故选C。【23题详解】考查动词短语辨析。句意:神经系统科学家通常定义一个记忆为“一个印迹符号”-在大脑组织中的和一个特定的记忆有关的物理改变。A.associated with 和.有关;B.exchanged for交换; C.sentenced to 判刑;D.deprived of剥夺。“ define a singular memory as ”本句解释的是“memory”的定义,recllection是它的近义词,因此应该是“和它相关

58、的”。故选A。【24题详解】考查动词短语辨析。句意:他们能够瞄准那个构成记忆符号的细胞,然后植入一个虚假的记忆。A.put off 推迟;B.pick up 捡起;C. turn on打开; D.make up构成。根据“a physical change in brain tissue 3 a particular recollection. ”(科学家对“engram”的定义)可知,那个细胞储存着记忆,构成了记忆符号。故选D。【25题详解】考查动词词义辨析。句意:在他们的工作中,老鼠会对某个特定的刺激作出惊恐的反应,即使当它们提前没有遭遇到这种情况。A. reacted 反应;B.hurr

110、atest model. An electric car, however, is a much bigger investment. Batteries are its priciest component, representing around 30% of an average of mid-size vehicle. Apart from increasing the risk of running out of juice and leaving a driver stranded, a deteriorating battery quickly destroys a cars s

111、econd-hand value.To provide buyers with some peace of mind, car makers guarantee their batteries, typically for eight years or around 200,000 km. Producers are now, though, planning to go much further than that, with the launch of “million-mile” (1.6km-kilometre) batteries. Elon Musk has hinted that

112、 Tesla has a million-mile battery in the works. And over in Detroit, General Motors (GM) is in the final stages of developing an advanced battery which it says has similar longevity.“Its a great catchphrase; the million-mile battery,” says George Crabtree, director of the Joint Centre for Energy Sto

The real point of a million-mile battery is that the technological advances required to make it possible will deal with these things as well.The lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries which power electric cars age in two way

115、s: with time and with use. Battery-makers-call time-dependent ageing “calendar ageing”. It is consequence of the gradual degradation of some of the materials employed in battery construction, which reduces a batterys ability to hold a charge. Leaving a car with a fully rather than partly charged bat

116、tery, for example, can increase the rate of calendar ageing. Use-dependent ageing is a consequence of the number of discharge-recharge cycles a battery goes through. It is caused by the complex chemical reactions that take place when a battery is operating. Some of these are essential to a batterys
