14、shopping list home.You need to memorise which groceries to pick up before you forget.Thankfully,theres a memory aid thats perfect for the job:the peg-word method.高三英语试卷 第 3 页（共 9 页）What is the peg-word method?It employs a set of pre-determined words,regarded as peg words,for the to-be-remembered inf

15、ormation.Peg words act as a structure to help you remember particular items.Essentially,youre hanging information you need to recall on these pegs,which allows it to be recalled quickly and easily.Initially,to use this method,you will have to remember the peg words as well as the numbers:The next st

16、ep is to create associations between the information you need to remember and the item linked with the corresponding number.If the first item,for instance,is milk,then you need to visualise the milk and a bun(小圆面包)together.The more unusual you can make your image,the more likely you are to remember

17、it.In this case,you could imagine a bun drinking a glass of milk.Why is it useful?As the case shows,it is most useful when it comes to remembering lists and you can recall the listed items easily in order.Another way to use this memory aid is to memorise important numbers,like phone numbers or dates

18、.For instance,you need to remember that William Shakespeare was born in the year 1564.First,change that number to bun-hive-sticks-door.Then imagine a story to help you remember the series:William Shakespeare put a bun in a beehive to coat it in honey,but he didnt like how sticky it became so he thre

23、structed,“You will take her home.You will love her and treat her as normal.”That is exactly what happened.I played sports,acted in theater,excelled in school and had playdates with friends.While I did get some stares and“polite”questions about my disability,I was lucky because I wasnt made fun of fo

24、r it.However,that fact that I was different hit me hard my first day of high school.I was 13,an age when kids are already very self-conscious and the need to fit in is intensified.I remember one of the other kids on the school bus stared just a little too long at my left arm.I felt a sudden urge to

25、hide my hand,so I slipped it into my pocket.I told myself that Id just hide it that one day,while I was trying to make friends.But one day of hiding turned into a week,a month,and years25 of them to be exact.When I was 38 years old,tired of hiding and lonely,I met someone special and invited him in.

26、The combination of me finally feeling ready to unhide and his willingness to go through the unhiding process with me was exactly what I needed.For the first time in my life,I allowed someone to really hold my limb,look at it,touch it,love itlove me.I saw my limb difference as something unique about

27、me,something that should be shown,not hidden.It was a transformational experience,and I learned to love me too.It changed how I lived my entire life and made me happier.I also discovered and joined the Lucky Fin Project,an organisation devoted to people with all types of disabilities.Hiding things,e

28、specially from loved ones,is tiring and lonely,and it prevents us from getting help and support.Its time to change that.24.What was the authors childhood like?A.She had no social interactions with friends.B.She was raised with care and treated normally.C.She faced some challenges in school activitie

29、s.D.She was upset about the attention to her difference.25.What happened to the author when she was 13 years old?A.She began to ignore her disability.B.She suffered prejudice from some kids.C.She started hiding herself away from friends.D.She became sensitive due to her self-awareness.26.How did the

31、her.B.Disability is not a barrier to success.C.Self-acceptance can lead to self-love.D.Nothing beats the feeling of being loved.C The streets and roofs of cities all absorb heat,making some urban areas hotter than rural ones.These“urban heat islands”can also develop underground as city heat spreads

32、downward,and subway tracks and other subsurface infrastructure(基础设施)also constantly radiate warmth into the surrounding earth.A new study of downtown Chicago shows underground hotspots may threaten the very same structures that give off the heat in the first place.“Without anyone realizing it,the ci

33、ty of Chicagos downtown was deforming,”says study author Rotta Loria,an environmental engineer.Humans arent the only potentially affected.“For a lot of things in the subsurface,its kind of out of sight,out of mind,”says Grant Ferguson,a geologist.But the underground world is full of creatures that h

34、ave adapted to subsurface existence such as insects and snails.As the temperature rises because of climate change and underground urban development,scientists are keeping eyes on the potential implications for underground ecosystems.But the question of how underground hotspots could affect infrastru

35、cture has gone largely unstudied.Because materials expand and contract with temperature change,Rotta suspected that heat coming from underground could be contributing to wear and tear on various structures.To understand how underground temperature difference has affected the grounds physical propert

36、ies,he used a computer model to simulate(模拟)the underground environment from the 1950s to nowand then to 2050.He found that by the middle of this century,some areas may lift upward by as much as 0.50 inch or settle by as much as 0.32 inch,depending on the soil makeup of the area involved.Though thes

37、e may sound like small displacements,Rotta says they could cause cracks in the foundations of some buildings,causing buildings to fall.Kathrin Menberg,a geoscientist in Germany,says these displacement predictions are far beyond her guesses and could be linked to the soft,clay-heavy soils.“Clay mater

38、ial is particularly sensitive,”she says,“It would be a big issue in all cities worldwide that are built on such material.”Like climate change above the surface,underground changes occur gradually.“These effects took decades to develop,”Ferguson says,adding that increased underground temperatures wou

39、ld likewise take a long time to dissipate on their own.“We could basically turn everything off,and its going to remain there,the temperature signal,for quite a while.”But Ferguson says this wasted heat energy could also be reused,presenting an opportunity to both cool the subsurface and save on ener

40、gy costs.Still,this assumption could fail as aboveground climate change continues to boost underground warming.However slowly,this heat will gather beneath our feet.“Its like climate change,”Rotta Loria says.“Maybe we dont see it always,but its happening.”高三英语试卷 第 6 页（共 9 页）28.The author quotes Rott

41、a Loria in Paragraph 2 mainly to _.A.make a prediction B.highlight a finding C.draw a conclusion D.raise an assumption 29.What can we learn from this passage?A.“Urban heat islands”extend underground to spare ecosystems.B.Surface climate change contributes to the reuse of underground heat.C.Undergrou

42、nd temperatures mirror the grounds physical characteristics.D.Buildings may collapse as a potential consequence of underground heat.30.What does the underlined word“dissipate”in Paragraph 6 probably mean?A.Show.B.Stay.C.Develop.D.Disappear.31.What does the author intend to tell us?A.Underground clim

43、ate change is a silent danger.B.Humans fail to notice the dramatic climate change.C.Cooling the subsurface helps control urban heat rises.D.Researching underground heat helps save on energy costs.D Have we reached the peak of the culture war?Looking at my social media feeds,it seems that polarised t

44、hinking and misinformation have never been more common.How am I supposed to feel when users I once admired now draw on questionable evidence to support their beliefs?Perhaps it is time for us all to adopt a little“existential humility”.I came across this idea in a paper by Jeffrey Greenat Virginia f

45、rom Common Wealth University and his colleagues.They build on a decade of research examining the benefits of“intellectual humility”more generallyour ability to recognise the errors in our judgement and remain aware of the limits of our knowledge.You can get a flavour of this research by rating your

46、agreement with the following statements,ranging from 1(not at all like me)to 5(very like me):I question my own opinions because they could be wrong;I recognise the value in opinions that are different from my own;in the face of conflicting evidence,I am open to changing my opinions.People who score

47、highly on this assessment are less likely to form knee-jerk reactions on a topic,and they find it easier to consider the strengths or weaknesses of a logical argument.They are less likely to be influenced by misinformation,since they tend to read the article in full,investigate the sources of a news

48、 story and compare its reporting to other statements,before coming to a strong conclusion about its truth.Developing“intellectual humility”would be an excellent idea in all fields,but certain situations may make it particularly difficult to achieve.Greenat points out that some beliefs are so central

49、 to our identity that any challenge can activate an existential crisis,as if our whole world view and meaning in life are under threat.As a result,we become more insistent in our opinions and seek any way to protect them.This may reduce some of our feelings of uncertainty,but it comes at the cost of

50、 more analytical thinking.高三英语试卷 第 7 页（共 9 页）For these reasons,Greenat defines“existential humility”as the capacity to entertain the thought of another world view without becoming so defensive and closed-minded.So how could we achieve it?This will be the subject of future research,but the emotion of
