55、spaces also typically use an open office layout(布局).But I recently came across a study that shows why his approach works.The researchers examined various levels of noise on participants as they completed tests of creative thinking.They were randomly divided into four groups and exposed to various no

56、ise levels in the background,from total silence to 50 decibels(分贝),70 decibels,and 85 decibels.The differences between most of the groups were statistically insignificant; however,the participants in the 70 decibels group those exposed to a level of noise similar to background chatter in a coffee sh

57、opsignificantly outperformed the other groups.Since the effects were small,this may suggest that our creative thinking does not differ that much in response to total silence and 85 decibels of background noise.But since the results at 70 decibels were significant,the study also suggests that the rig

58、ht level of background noise not too loud and not total silence may actually improve ones creative thinking ability.The right level of background noise may interrupt our normal patterns of thinking just enough to allow our imaginations to wander,without making it impossible to focus.This kind of “di

59、stracted focus” appears to be the best state for working on creative tasks.So why do so many of us hate our open offices? The problem may be that,in our offices,we cant stop ourselves from getting drawn into others conversations while were trying to focus.Indeed,the researchers found that face-to-fa

60、ce interactions and conversations affect the creative process,and yet a coworking space or a coffee shop provides a certain level of noise while also providing freedom from interruptions.【语篇解读】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讲述了联合办公区域有助于使人注意力集中并且激发员工的创造力思维。32.Why does the interviewer prefer a coworking space?A.It help

66、 school.An adult with poor self-regulation skills may lack self-confidence.He may have difficulty handling stress,and often,this might be expressed in terms of anger and anxiety.How do problems with self-regulation develop?It could start early when a baby isnt treated with enough care.38 Later,an ad

67、ult may struggle with self-regulation,either because this ability wasnt developed during childhood,or because of a lack of skills in managing difficult feelings.When left unchecked,over time this could lead to risky behaviour such as taking drugs.39 One of the most frequently used methods is to chan

68、ge your thought patterns,which means that you think about a situation in a positive way,rather than one thats likely to increase negative emotions.40 Rather than thinking that this reflects something about yourself such as “My friend hates me”,you might instead think,“My friend must be really busy”.

69、A.Try to cheer yourself up after disappointment.B.Do the usual series of things at a particular time.C.A child who doesnt feel safe may have trouble self-regulating.D.A lack of self-regulation will cause problems in life.E.Anyhow,self-regulation is so important that we should learn to use this skill

71、y want to achieve,act in accordance with their views,and devote their best effort.”可知,该句和上一句是顺承的关系,因为上一句说的是自我调节的好处。故G项(当他们感到沮丧时,自我调节能使他们平静下来,也能使他们高兴起来)承接并解释上文。故选G项。37.D根据下文“A bad-tempered child who hits others wont be popular at school.”可知,下文讲的是如果缺乏自我调节,就会产生不好的影响,所以此处说的也是不好的影响。故D项(缺少自我调节会在生活中导致很多问题)

72、总结下文。故选D项。38.C根据下文“Later,an adult may struggle with self-regulation,either because this ability wasnt developed during childhood,or because of a lack of skills in managing difficult feelings.”可知,下文主要讲述的是成年人的情况,所以此处讲的是孩子时的情况。C项(一个缺乏安全感的孩子可能会有自我调节的困难)符合题意。故选C项。39.E根据下文“One of the most frequently used

73、methods is to change your thought patterns,which means that you think about a situation in a positive way,rather than one thats likely to increase negative emotions.”可知,下文讲述的是各种提高自我调节的方法。E项(总之,自我调节是如此重要,我们应该学会使用这种技能)符合题意。故选E项。40.F根据下文“Rather than thinking that this reflects something about yourself

74、such asMy friend hates me,you might instead think,My friend must be really busy.” 可知,当好几天都没有收到朋友的来电时,不要想是朋友讨厌自己而是朋友很忙。F项(例如,当一个朋友好几天不回你的电话或短信的时候)符合题意。故选F项。第三部分语言运用(共两节,满分30分)第一节(共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分)阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的A、B、 C和D四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。The past 10 months has been the most influential months of
