You are required to select one word for each blank from a list o
23、f choices given in a word bank following the passage. Read the passage through carefully before making your choices. Each choice in the bank is identified by a letter. Please mark the corresponding letter for each item on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre. You may not use any of t
24、he words in the bank more than once.Questions 26 to 35 are based on the following passage.In whats probably the craziest headline Ive ever written, Ive reported that 26 in livestock protection are happening with scientists painting eyes on the butts of cows. The experiment is based upon the idea tha
25、t farmers whore protecting their herd from lions would shoot and kill lions in an effort to protect their livestock. While this makes a lot of sense, it results in many lion deaths that 27 would have been unnecessary. Researchers in Australia have been 28 and testing a method of trickery to make lio
26、ns think they are being watched by the painted eyes on cow butts.This idea is based on the principle that lions and other 29 are far less likely to attack when they feel they are being watched. As conservation areas become smaller, lions are increasingly coming into contact with human populations, w
27、hich are expanding to the 30 of these protected areas.Efforts like painting eyes on cow butts may seem crazy at first, but they could make actual headway in the fight for conservation. “If the method works, it could provide farmers in Botswana-and 31 with a low-cost, sustainable tool to protect thei
28、r livestock, and a way to keep lions safe from being killed.”Lions are 32 ambush(埋伏)hunters, so when they feel their prey has 33 them, they usually give up on the hunt. Researchers are 34 testing their idea on a select herd of cattle. They have painted half of the cows with eyes and left the other h
29、alf as normal. Through satellite tracking of both the herd and the lions in the area, they will be able to 35 if their psychological trickery will work to help keep farmers from shooting lions.A) advances I) otherwiseB) boundaries J) predatorsC) challenging K) primarilyD) currently L) retortedE) det
30、ermine M) spottedF) devising N) testimoniesG) elsewhere O) wrestleH) neverthelessSection BDirections: In this section, you are going to read a passage with ten statements attached to it. Each statement contains information given in one of the paragraphs. Identify the paragraph from which the informa
31、tion is derived. You may choose a paragraph more than once. Each paragraph is marked with a letter. Answer the questions by marking the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2.Resilience Is About How You Recharge, Not How You EndureA As constant travelers and parents of a 2-year-old, we sometimes fan
32、tasize about how much work we can do when one of us gets on a plane, undistracted by phones, friends, or movies. We race to get all our ground work done: packing, going through security, doing a last-minute work call, calling each other, then boarding the plane. Then, when we try to have that amazin
33、g work session in flight, we get nothing done. Even worse, after refreshing our email or reading the same studies over and over, we are too exhausted when we land to soldier on with(繼續(xù)處理) the emails that have inevitably still piled up.B why should flying deplete us? Were just sitting there doing not
34、hing. Why cant we be tougher, more resilient(有復(fù)原力的) and determined in our work so we can accomplish all of the goals we set for ourselves? Based on our current research, we have come to realize that the problem is not our hectic schedule or the plane travel itself; the problem comes from a misconcep
35、tion of what it means to be resilient, and the resulting impact of overworking.C We often take a militaristic, “tough” approach to resilience and determination like a Marine pulling himself through the mud, a boxer going one more round, or a football player picking himself up off the ground for one
36、more play. We believe that the longer we tough it out, the tougher we are, and therefore the more successful we will be. However, this entire conception is scientifically inaccurate.D The very lack of a recovery period is dramatically holding back our collective ability to be resilient and successfu
37、l. Research has found that there is a direct correlation between lack of recovery and increased incidence of health and safety problems. And lack of recovery whether by disrupting sleep with thoughts of work or having continuous cognitive arousal by watching our phones is costing our companies $62 b
38、illion a year in lost productivity.E And just because work stops, it doesnt mean we are recovering. We “stop” work sometimes at 5pm, but then we spend the night wrestling with solutions to work problems, talking about our work over dinner, and falling asleep thinking about how much work well do tomo
39、rrow. In a study just released, researchers from Norway found that 7.8% of Norwegians have become workaholics(工作狂). The scientists cite a definition “workaholism”as “being overly concerned about work, driven by an uncontrollable work motivation, and investing so much time and effort in work that it
40、impairs other important life areas.”F We believe that the number of people who fit that definition includes the majoriy of American workers, which prompted us to begin a study of workaholism in the U.S. Our study will use a large corporate dataset from a major medical company to examine how technolo
41、gy extends our working hours and thus interferes with necessary cognitive recovery, resulting in huge health care costs and turnover costs for employers.G The misconception of resilience is often bred from an early age. Parents trying to teach their children resilience might celebrate a high school
42、student staying up until 3am to finish a science fair project. What a distortion of resilience! A resilient child is a well-rested one. When an exhausted student goes to school, he risks hurting everyone on the road with his impaired driving; he doesnt have the cognitive resources to do well on his
43、English test; he has lower self-control with his friends; and at home, he is moody with his parents. Overwork and exhaustion are the opposite of resilience and the bad habits we acquire when were young only magnify when we hit the workforce.H As Jim Loehr and Tony Schwartz have written, if you have
44、too much time in the performance zone, you need more time in the recovery zone, otherwise you risk burnout. Gathering your resources to “try hard” requires burning energy in order to overcome your currently low arousal level. It also worsens exhaustion. Thus the more imbalanced we become due to over
45、working, the more value there is in activities the allow us to return to a state of balance. The value of a recovery period rises in proportion to the amount of work required of us.I So how do we recover and build resilience? Most people assume that if you stop doing a task like answering emails or
46、writhing a paper, your brain will naturally recover, so that when you start again later in the day or the next morning, youll have your energy back. But surely everyone reading this has had times when you lie in bed for hours, unable to fall asleep because your brains is thinking about work. If you
47、lie in bed for eight hours, you may have rested, but you can still feel exhausted the next day. Thats because rest and recovery are not the same thing.J If youre trying to build resilience at work, you need adequate internal and external recovery periods. As researchers Zijlstra, Cropley and Rydsted
48、t write in their 2021 paper: “Internal recovery refers to the shorter periods of relaxation that take place within the frames of the work day or the work setting in the form of short scheduled or unscheduled breaks, by shifting attention or changing to other work tasks when the mental or physical re
49、sources required for the initial task are temporarily depleted or exhausted. External recovery refers to actions that take place outside of worke.g. in the free time between the work days, and during weekends, holidays or vacations.” If after work you lie around on your bed and get irritated by poli
50、tical commentary on your phone or get stressed thinking about decisions about how to renovate your home, your brain has not received a break from high mental arousal states. Our brains need a rest as much as our bodies do.K If you really want to build resilience, you can start by strategically stopp
51、ing. Give yourself the resources to be tough by creating internal and external recovery periods. Amy Blankson describes how to strategically stop during the day by using technology to control overworking. She suggests downloading the Instant or Moment apps to see how many times you turn on your phon
52、e each day. You can also use apps like Offtime or Unplugged to create tech free zones by strategically scheduling automatic airplane modes. The average person turns on their phone 150 times every day. If every distraction took only 1 minute, that would account for 2.5 hours a day.L In addition, you
53、can take a cognitive break every 90 minutes to charge your batteries. Try to not have lunch at your desk, but instead spend time outside or with your friendsnot talking about work. Take all of your paid time off, which not only gives you recovery periods, but raises your productivity and likelihood
54、of promotion.M As for us, weve started using our plane time as a work-free zone, and thus time to dip into the recovery phase. The results have been fantastic. We are usually tired already by the time we get on a plane, and the crowded space and unstable internet connection make work more challengin
55、g. Now, instead of swimming upstream, we relax, sleep, watch movies, or listen to music. And when we get off the plane, instead of being depleted, we feel recovered and ready to return to the performance zone.36. It has been found that inadequate recovery often leads to poor health and accidents.37.
56、 Mental relaxation is much needed, just as physical relaxation is.38. Adequate rest not only helps one recover, but also increases ones work efficiency.39. The author always has a hectic time before taking a flight.40. Recovery may not take place even if one seems to have stopped working.41. It is a
57、dvised that technology be used to prevent people from overworking.42. Contrary to popular belief, rest does not equal recovery.43. The author has come to see that his problem results from a misunderstanding of the meaning of resilience.44. Peoples distorted view about resilience may have developed from their upbringing.45. People tend to think the more determined they are, the greater their success will be.Section CDirections: There are 2 passages in this section.Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements.For each
