The mountain s are calling and I must go. — the famous quote is from John Muir(1838-1914), who is
described as“the wilderness poet”and“the citizen of the universe”. He once jokingly referred to himself as a
poet-geologist-botanist and ornithologist（鸟类学家）-naturalist etc. etc! He is known as the Father of American
National Parks.
Famed documentary filmmaker Ken Burns recently said, As we got to know him… he was among the highest
individuals in America; I'm talking about the level of Abraham Lincoln, Martin Luther King Jr., and Thomas
Jefferson — people who have had a transformation al effect on who we are.
So where is the quote from? Well, John Mui r was a productive writer. Whether he was writing poetry or
simply letters to his family, John Mui r was always putting pen to paper. The quote is from within one of his many
letters written to his sister:
September 3rd, 1873
Yosemite Valley
Dear sister Sarah,
I have just returned from the longest and hardest trip I have ever made in the mountains, having been gone
over five weeks. I am weary, but resting fast; sleepy, but sleeping deep and fast; hungry, but eating much. For two
weeks I explored the glaciers of the summits east of here, sleeping among the snowy mountains without blankets
and with little to eat on account of its being so inaccessible. After my icy experiences it seems strange to be down
here in so warm and flowery a climate.
I will soon be off again, determined to use all the season in carrying through my work —will go next to Kings
River a hundred miles south, then to Lake Tahoe and surrounding mountains, and in winter work in Oakland with
my pen.
Though slow, some day I will have the results of my mountain studies in a form in which you all will be able
to read and judge of them. The mountain s are calling and I must go, and I will work on while I can, studying
incessantly（永不停息地）.
I will write again when I return from Kings River Canyon.
Farewell, with love everlasting.
Yours,
John

Is forgiveness against our human nature? To answer the question, we need to ask a further question: What is
the essence of our humanity? For the sake of simplicity, people consider two distinctly different views of humanity.
The first view involves dominance and power. In an early paper on the psychology of forgiveness, Droll(1984)
made the interesting claim that humans' essential nature is more aggressive than forgiving allows. Those who
forgive are against their basic nature, much to their harm. In his opinion, forgivers are compromising their
well-being as they offer mercy to others, who might then take advantage of them.
The second view involves the theme of cooperation, mutual respect, and even love as the basis of who we are
as humans. Researchers find that to fully grow as human beings, we need both to receive love from and offer love
to others. Without love, our connections with a wide range of individuals in our lives can fall apart. Even common
sense strongly suggests that the will to power over others does not make for harmonious interactions. For example,
how well has slavery worked as a mode of social harmony?
From this second viewpoint of who we are as humans, forgiveness plays a key role in the biological and
psychological integrity of both individuals and communities because one of the outcomes of forgiveness, shown
through scientific studies, is the decreasing of hatred and the restoration of harmony. Forgiveness can break the
cycle of anger. At least to the extent the people from whom you are estranged（疏远） accept your love and
forgiveness and are prepared to make the required adjustments. Forgiveness can heal relationships and reconnect
people.
As an important note, when we take a Classical philosophical perspective, that of Aristotle, we see the
distinction between potentiality and actuality. We are not necessarily born with the capacity to forgive, but instead
with the potential to learn about it and to grow in our ability to forgive. The actuality of forgiving, its actual
appropriation in conflict situations, develops with practice.
28. What is Droll's idea about forgiveness?
A. Aggressive people should learn to forgive others.
B. People should offer mercy to anyone else.
C. People forgiving others have their welfare affected.
D. Forgiveness depends on the nature of humanity.
29. What does the example in paragraph 2 illustrate?
A. To fight is to grow. B. To give is to receive.
C. To forgive is to love. D. To dominate is to harm.
30. What is the writer's attitude toward forgiveness?
A. Reserved. B. Favorable. C. Skeptical. D. Objective.
31. What is the message conveyed in the last paragraph?
A. Actuality is based on potentiality. B. Forgiveness is in our nature.
C. Forgiveness grows with time. D. It takes practice to forgive.
D
According to legend, the first-ever marathon was so exhausting that the Greek messenger, who dashed 40km
from the battlefield to Athens, collapsed and died. Over the past 2,500 years, humans have become better at
running. Eight of the ten fastest times in female marathon have been recorded since 2022. This can to a large extent
be explained by the development of a new generation of hyper-bouncy running shoes —“super-shoes”— that offer
athletes greater assstance. Such has been the improvement that some have questioned whether the technology is
now too dominant.
No doubt that athletes are breaking records because of their footwear. Both Nike and Adidas have persuaded
World Athletics to permit shoes with chunky, foam soles（鞋底）, which act as springs. When their feet compress
the super-shoes into the ground, the runners receive more energy as they push off again. In 2017 Nike announced
the new technology allowed athletes to use 4% less energy than they would if wearing a regular shoe.
Those who would like the shoes banned worry that the balance between the runners' ability and footwear has
become twisted. Plainly, though, this is a long way from shoes that matter more than runners. A club runner may
set a personal best in a pair of Nike Alphaflys, but she is not going to run faster than Ms. Assefa (world champion)
wearing regular shoes. World Athletics insists such super-shoes should be available to all athletes in order to be
legal, so there is no risk of results being determined by a lack of access to the best equipment.
Part of the appeal of sports is that they show humans on an upward trajectory（轨迹）, becoming stronger,
faster and fitter. Technology has always contributed to this. But as the sports industry has more investment, the
motivations to find an edge in performance have grown, whether in kit, diet or game strategy. Surely, ad vances
have to be controlled. But banning super-shoes would be opposing progress and difficult to carry out. This is a
genie（精灵） that cannot be returned to its shoebox.
32. What has improved female marathon records since 2022?
A. The changes of rules. B. The assistance of coaches.
C. The development of humans. D. The advance in sports kit.
33. What is centered on about super-shoes in paragraph 2?
A. The challenge. B. The drawback. C. The principle. D. The history.
34. Which of the following might the author agree with?
A. Ms. Assefa runs slowly in regular shoes.
B. Nike Alphaflys better athletes' performance.
C. Using super-shoes is regarded as dishonest.
D. Access to super shoes determines athletes' success.
35. What does the last paragraph imply?
A. Athletics should not embrace super-shoes.
B. We don't need to worry much about technological advances.
C. Not all investments have led to ad vances in technology.
D. It is impossible for sports industry to control super-shoes.

Uplifting words
When you see your friends or loved ones feeling down or being met with some setbacks at school or work,
you might want to offer them a pep talk. A pep talk is usually a brief, intense and emotional talk designed to
influence or encourage an audience. 36 Just saying what you think the other person wants to hear might
not be enough. It requires an understanding of what your audience needs —whether it is simply cheering them up
or motivating them to change.

Step one is to listen.
Don't jump right in and insist: you will be fine. Show your friend that you understand how they feel and
empathize. 37

about them. Saying things like: you are a very resilient person. you are outgoing and friendly. You bounce
back well. Avoid general sentences like you can overcome your fears or Time heals.
Talk about hope.
You can't guarantee success. 39 But you can remind the person that he or she has been through a tough
time before and gotten through it.
Be there.
Make sure they know that you will be there for them, follow up with them after the pep talk.
40
Don't argue if the person disagrees with what you are saying or tells you: you don't understand; this time is
different. Tell them: I'm Sorry, you are having such a hard time. Then back off.
A. Know when to stop.
B. Be sincere and specific.
C. Carefully choose your words.
D. But giving a good pep talk isn't easy.
E. Some problems might be out of anyone's control.

Benched?
Anxious, Devin sat in the back seat of the car. I have so much energy! he said. Do I really have to sit and
watch?
It's just for one more game. Devin's father said as he drove into the parking lot by the outdoor basketball
court. It's better to stay on the safe side.
Devin sighed. It's been a week since I got injured, he said. It doesn't hurt at all.
But it did hurt when he was in last week's game. He twisted to avoid a defender and ended up spraining his
ankle. The doctor said 10 days, his father reminded him. No jumping. You can ease back into basketball next
week.
Devin ran his fingers over the logo on his basketball uniform. He was ready for the game, but he knew he'd be
spending it on the bench. The summer season was short — just eight games —and he'd already missed one.
I just want to help my team win, he said as he got out of the car. I can't do that if I'm not on the court.
Devin loved hearing the thump（沉闷的撞击声）, thump, thump of basketballs and the feeling of excitement
before every game. Hip-hop music from the loudspeaker made him feel like dancing. The energy in the air would
make it even harder for him not to participate.
Before the game, Coach reminded the players to make smart passes and play tough defense. Without Devin's
leadership and skill, his team would need a huge effort.
By halftime, Coach praised the players for their hard work. With Devin unable to play, the team had only one
extra player, so no one was getting much rest.
The game was fierce. The score stood at 47 to 49 with three minutes left in the game. Devin sat down and
rubbed his hands together. I'm a loser here on the bench. I can do nothing to help. he thought.
Coach called a timeout（比赛暂停） and gathered the players to give some advice.
注意：
1. 续写词数为 150 左右；
2.请按如下格式在答题卡相应位置作答.
Suddenly, Coach turned to Devin. Do you have anything to add? ___________________________________
