1．There's a great thought experiment by the late philosopher Brian McGee.He said，"Imagine someone who's turning 100 today，and imagine that there was someone else who turned 100 the day that person was born，and so on，back through history." So，you can imagine all these 100-year lifespans in a chain，end-to-end.When you look at things like that，human civilization has not been around very long at all.And an individual life is extremely tiny.
Many of us go through life struggling about the various decisions we have to make.In fact，on a cosmic（宇宙的） level，the costs aren't that high.If you're scared about launching a creative project，you might as well do it，because it doesn't matter much，even if it goes wrong.
Additionally，another philosopher，Iddo Landau，has pointed out that when we think of ourselves as important in planning things，it leads to problems in creating a meaningful life because we set the goal too high.It's as if you can only count your life as meaningful if you changed the course of world events or became internationally famous.
If we cut everything down to size and drop back into the reality of our situation，you'll see that far more things than you'd thought count as meaningful ways to spend your time on Earth - even ordinary things.Cooking a meal for your family - that's meaningful.Creating things that help even a small number of people is meaningful.Making some tiny contribution to the betterment of your neighborhood - that matters.
All sorts of things you're doing right now might be more meaningful than you realize.So，be happy as you really are using your limited time in a way that matters.

2．In a remote corner of Brazil's Amazon tropical（熱帶的）rainforest，researchers have spent decades catching and measuring birds.Over 40 years，dozens of Amazonian bird species have declined in mass（質(zhì)量）.Many species have lost nearly 2% of their average body weight each decade，researchers report November 12 in Science Advances.Some species have grown longer wings.The changes could help birds stay cool in a hotter，more changeable climate，the researchers say.
"Climate change isn't something of the future.It has been happening and has effects we haven't thought of，" says Ben Winger，an ornithologist（鳥類專家）at the University of Michigan，who wasn't involved in the research but has documented similar shrinkage（縮水）in migratory birds.
To see if non-migratory birds have also been shrinking，Jirinec and colleagues analyzed data collected from 1979 to 2019 in a remote region in the Amazon that spans 43km.The data include over 11，000 individual birds of 77 species as well as climate for the region.
All species declined in mass over this period，the researchers found.Species lost from about 0.1% to nearly 2% of their average body weight each decade.The motmot，for example，shrunk from 133 g to about 127 g over the study period.
These changes coincided with an overall increase in the average temperature of 1℃ in the wet season and 1.65%℃ in the dry season.Birds' mass decreased the most in a year or two after especially hot and dry seasons，which tracks with the idea that birds are getting smaller to deal with heat stress.
Wing length also grew for 61 species，with a maximum increase of 1% per decade.Jirinec thinks longer wings make for more efficient，and thus cooler，fliers.
"The Amazon rainforest is mysterious，remote and full of biodiversity，" Jirined says. "This study suggests that even in places like this，far removed from civilization，you can see signatures of climate change."
（1）What changes have happened to Amazonian birds over 40 years？
A．They have lost weight.
B．They have grown prettier.
C．They have become fewer.
D．They have become larger.
（2）What do does the underlined phrase "coincided with" in paragraph 5 mean？
A．Contrasted with.
B．Compared with.
C．Corresponded to.
D．Contributed to.
（3）What's a reason for the tropical birds' changes？
A．Climate change.
B．Food shortage.
C．Massive hunting.
D．Scientific research.
（4）What might be the best title of the text？
A．Researchers measuring birds in Amazon
B．Climate change shrinking tropical birds
C．Longer wings improving flying efficiency
D．Human activities damaging Amazon rainforest發(fā)布：2025/1/1 14:0:1組卷：7引用：2難度：0.4 -
3．Imagine you made plans with a new friend to talk on the phone.You called but there was no answer - and you didn't get a call back.What happened？Perhaps they got held up by a work obligation.Perhaps they didn't want to meet but didn't bother to cancel.Or perhaps they had a busy week and simply forgot to write down your appointment time.
In social situations like this，our minds can produce various explanations，ranging from ones that are more understanding to ones that put blame to the other party.Psychologists refer to this as our attributional style （歸因風(fēng)格）.Past research has found that individuals with a "hostile" attributional style tend to be less satisfied with their relationships.
According to a new study，they're also less happy overall.The researchers can't say for sure whether seeing people as hostile directly lowers our happiness，or whether unhappy people are just more likely to make hostile attribution in the first place.However，this study does suggest the possibility that giving people the benefit of the doubt is a practice to improve our relationships and well-being.
Dorota Jasielska，lead researcher of the study，suggests that we start by developing positive and trusting social relationships.When we find ourselves surrounded by warmth and support，it can help us see the social world in a kinder light.Another important strategy is to have open and direct communication.Instead of letting your anxieties get worse，it may be better to simply talk to people about their confusing behavior.
So the next time a friend cancels plans or forgets to text back，consider giving him the benefit of the doubt and waiting to hear his side of things before jumping to conclusions.Assuming others have good intentions will make the world seem like a friendlier place.
（1）How does the author introduce the topic of the text？
A．By giving an example.
B．By asking a question.
C．By giving a definition.
D．By telling a story.
（2）What is the attributional style？
A．To show an understanding of one's mistake.
B．To imagine a particular social situation.
C．To find out the cause of social phenomena.
D．To make assumptions on uncertain things.
（3）What can make us happier according to the study？
A．Finding common interests with others.
B．Making positive excuses for others.
C．Improving social communication.
D．Being friendly to others.
（4）What do the last two paragraphs mainly talk about？
A．Importance of reaching out and making friends.
B．Strategies for having effective communication.
C．Advice on handling confusing social behavior.
D．Methods for improving our social relationships.發(fā)布：2025/1/1 14:0:1組卷：4引用：2難度：0.5
