21、   Why are some people successful and others aren't? What's the secret of success?【1】

Many of Gladwell's ideas appear in his social psychology bestsellr Outliers.【2】Gladwell thinks that this is just an excuse for not trying...and if you really want to be good at something. you have to work at it.“Practice isn’t the thing you do once you re good." Gladwell writes.“It's the thing you do that makes you good."

Central to the book is the“10.000-hour rule". It means that if you want to be among the best in the world, you need to practise something for 10.000 hours.【3】For example, the Beatles played live in Hamburg more than 1.200 times between 1960 and 1964. which is more than 10,000 hours of playing time. And when Microsoft chairman Bill Gates was 13, he was given access to a high school computer (one of the few available in the country) allowing him to practise computer programming for more than (Yes, you guessed it) 10, 000 hours.

The interesting thing is that success has nothing to do with intelligence.【4】He's got an IQ of between 195 and 210 (Albert Einstein's IQ was estimated to have been between 160 and 180). As a boy at school, Langan was able to take an exam in a foreign language he d never studied and pass it after just skim-reading a text book for three minutes. However, Langan never graduated from university and worked in labour-intensive jobs his whole life. This proves that intelligence alone will not lead to success- you need hard work, support, finance and opportunities. Gladwell adds,“No one一not rock stars, not professional athletes, not software billionaires, and not even geniuses一ever makes it alone."

【5】Even after you've put in your 10.000 hours of practice, you still need one other key ingredient - - luck. So, you could be the most amazing guitarist in the world. but unless you re lucky enough to play in front of a record company executive who sees a way of exploiting that talent, you aren't going to be seeing your name in lights.

A.It isn't just a question of time and support.

B.Author Malcolm Gladwell thinks he knows.

C.That's equal to three hours a day for 10 years.

D.Of course, many people argue that you can create your own“'luck".

E.The popular view is that some of us are born talented and others aren't.

F.Take the example of Christopher Langan, who's mentioned in the book.

G.Someone who's willing to practise something for 10.000 hours is probably active.

22、   There are many therapies (疗法) for depression, including medical treatment, psychotherapy and talk therapy. Having a range of treatment choices is a good idea because no single treatment works equally well for each of millions of sufferers. Choosing the most suitable treatment is important to them. Now researchers say a new therapy proven to relieve depression should be added to the established treatments. It's called nature therapy. “Interacting with nature can have positive effects on those with depression,” says Ethan Kross, PhD, an expert who has studied the nature-depression link.

A little exposure to nature helps all of us get our energy back, and it may have special benefit for those who are depressed. “It seems that, from our work, the restorative effect of nature seems to be stronger for individuals with depression,” says Marc Berman, PhD, an assistant professor of psychology at the University of Chicago. That might be because they feel mentally exhausted, and being in nature reenergizes them. However, Dr. Berman has a strong warning. “We're not arguing that interacting with nature should replace clinically proven treatments for depression,” he says, “Nor should those with clinical depression try to treat themselves.”

However, Berman and others say, interactions with nature could serve as a very effective supplementary treatment. Compared to adults with depression walking for 50 minutes in an urban setting, those who took a 50-minute walk in a natural setting were less depressed and had better memory skills.

Why does nature hold this special effect? Berman says, “In a natural environment, we can choose to think or not, and this choice is believed to help us rest our brains. You can then pay attention later, when you need to.” He adds, “It gives people more ability to concentrate, which is a big problem for those with depression.” Nature provides an effective setting for resting our brains, unlike urban setting. Even in the most peaceful urban environment, you have to pay attention to such things as traffic and stoplights.

【1】What can we learn about depression therapies from paragraph 1?

A.They focus on physical activity. B.They pay no attention to interactions.

C.They mainly depend on natural environment. D.They need to be tailored to different patients.

【2】How does nature benefit patients with depression？

A.By replacing clinic treatment. B.By making them feel energetic.

C.By reminding them to rest in time. D.By covering up their mental problems

【3】What does the underlined word “supplementary” in paragraph 3 probably mean?

A.Essential. B.Traditional. C.Controversial. D.Additional.

【4】What is the text mainly about?

A.An urban setting of restoring energy.

B.The positive role of nature in treating depression.

C.The popularity of using multiple ways to treat diseases.

D.An effective replacement of clinical therapy for depression.

23、   Every day, art comes alive in the Metropolitan Museum of Art and through its exhibitions and events, revealing new ideas and unexpected connections across time and across cultures.

Making The Met 1870-2020

The signature exhibition of The Met’s 150th-annivei-sary year takes visitors on a fascinating journey through the history of one of the world’s top cultural institutions. Rarely seen valuable records, photographs, and stories of both behind-the-scenes work and the Museum’s community outreach enhance this unique experience.

The New British Galleries

The British Galleries exhibit almost seven hundred works of art, including a large number of new acquisitions. particularly objects made in the, nineteenth century that were purchased with this project in mind.

About Time: Fashion And Duration

The Costume Institute’s 2020 exhibition tracks a century and a half of fashion—from 1870 to the present - along a troubled timeline, on the occasion of The Met’s 150th anniversary. Employing Henri Bergson’s concept of la durée (duration), it explores how clothes generate time-related associations that mix past, present, and future.

Art of Native America: The Charles and Valeric Diker Collection

This splendid exhibition in the Museum’s American Wing shows 116 masterworks, ranging in date from the second to the early twentieth century, the diverse works are promised gifts, donations and loans to The Met from the pioneering collectors Charles and Valerie Diker.

24、The human personality is a rather complex and bewildering thing to study. In order to gain a better understanding of the subject, people have attempted to find increasingly reliable ways to measure and classify personalities. 【1】

Personality tests pose a series of questions or ambiguous images that are meant to help assess the test taker’s personality. Once completed, the collected answers will indicate what “type” of personality the test taker has.

【2】 They’re used to assess theories, evaluate the effectiveness of therapies, diagnose psychological problems, examine personality changes, and even screen job candidates. Personality testing has become a multibillion-dollar industry, and it is used by individuals, schools corporations, and even government agencies around the globe.

The majority of the tests that are used by experts today are based on the “Big Five” personality model. This theory suggests that the human personality can be measured across five broad dimensions: extroversion, agreeableness, conscientiousness, neuroticism, and openness to change. 【3】 Some even break these dimensions further into smaller “subtraits” or divide the traits differently.   

Essentially, the personality tests we use today fall into two categories: self-report inventories and projective tests. The first category typically involves having the test subject read a number of multiple-choice questions or statements and then rating how well the described qualities or characteristics apply to them. The biggest advantage of self-report inventories is that they are standardized and use established norms(准则). 【4】

The second category involves presenting the test subject with ambiguous scenes, objects, or scenarios(设想) and then asking them to give their interpretations of the test items. These descriptions are then used to assess the individual’s unconscious fears, desires, and challenges. This type of personality test is usually used in psychotherapy settings, where it allows therapists to gather a great deal of information about their clients in a relatively short amount of time. 【5】 Different people may provide different interpretations of the responses given.

A．However, its subjective nature can be a problem.

B．Nowadays, these tests are conducted for a wide variety of purposes.

C．Personality tests are likely to become a more useful tool for employers.

D．These eventually gave rise to the modern personality tests that we use today.

E．Therefore, they’re easy to carry out and tend to have much higher reliability and validity.

F．Some people have high levels of openness to experience or score high in conscientiousness.

G．Some tests refer to these five dimensions by different labels or focus on one of them more than the others.

25、As a child, I was always told to “eat my greens”. These were the unappealing vegetables that sat on the edge of my plate. Peas, and green beans, all looked and tasted _______. Let’s face it, when there were so many other delicious treats to _______, why eat boring vegetables?

Since then my taste buds have _______ and I’m also fully aware of the health benefits of eating fresh vegetables. But we still need _______ of the amazing goodness these green super foods give us. In the UK, a campaign has been _______ for several years to encourage us to eat our “5 A Day”—five portions of fruit and vegetables. That’s _______ evidence has shown there are significant health _______ to getting at least five 80g portions of a variety of fruit and vegetables every day.

But I struggle trying to fit these five portions into my daily _______, partly because I have a sweet _______ and vegetables are, well, tasteless. Researchers have been ________ how to make eating vegetables more ________. They analysed the psychology behind our food ________ and found that most of us are ________ by taste. Brad Turnwald from Stanford University says that “studies show that people ________ to think of healthier options as less tasty for some reason.”

In Europe, a project called VeggieEAT has also been trying to find ways to get people to ________ more vegetables. Project leader, Professor Heather Hartwell believes in ________ encouraging people into eating the right things. One idea has been to put a ________ of a tasty looking fruit on a supermarket trolley as a ________ about buying something from the fruit store. She says, “Choice is a really ________ thing. But making vegetables look attractive will increase their sales.”

Certainly, eating “twisted citrus-glazed carrots” does sound tempting, even if it just ________ like a carrot, but if it makes us eat more vegetables then that can only be a good thing for our health.
