D.AvoidsurfingtheInternet.【答案】32.B33.D34.C35.A【解析】【导语】本文是一篇说明文。实践和研究显示，人们网购时下意识更倾向点击圆角矩形按钮(如“立即购买”、“加入购物车”等)，而非直角矩形按钮。这带来不少商机，也提醒我们理性消费。【32题详解】细节理解题。根据文章第二段“ournaturalinstinctssendussignalsthatsharpanglesusuallyindicatedangerandthatwe’remorelikelytogethurt.Incontrast,curvydesignsareperceivedasfriendlierandmoreapproachable.”（我们的本能告诉我们，尖锐的角度通常意味着危险，我们更可能受到伤害。相反，圆角设计被认为更友好、更可接近。）可知，人们更倾向于点击圆角矩形按钮是因为它们给我们一种安全感。故选B。【33题详解】词句猜测题。根据文章第四段“astheywillunconsciouslyclickandspendmorethroughtheuseofcurvedcall-to-actionbuttons.”（因为他们会无意识地点击，并通过使用圆角的行动呼吁按钮花更多的钱。）可知，这意味着公司有可能影响消费者。故划线词的意思是“影响”。故选D。【34题详解】推理判断题。根据文章第四段“thismeanscompaniescanpotentiallymanipulateconsumersastheywillunconsciouslyclickandspendmorethroughtheuseofcurvedcall-to-actionbuttons.”（这意味着公司可以通过使用圆角的行动呼吁按钮，潜在地影响消费者，使他们无意识地点击并花费更多。）以及“Forcompaniesthatputlittlethoughtorreasoningbehindtheirdesignelementchoices,thisstudycouldbeeye-openingforthem.”（对于那些在设计元素选择上缺乏思考或推理的公司来说，这项研究可能会让他们大开眼界。）可知，圆角矩形按钮设计对于公司来说是一种强大的工具。故选C。【35题详解】推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Biswasencouragesonlineshopperstosetabudgettobalancesuchdigitalinfluence.“Havingabudgetwillgiveyouabenchmarktokeepthingsmoreconscious-orientedandyou’relesslikelytobeinfluencedbyvariableslikethese.””（Biswas鼓励在线购物者设定预算以平衡这种数字影响。“有预算会给你一个基准，让你更有意识地购物，你就不太可能受到这些变量的影响。”）可知，Biswas建议读者成为理性的消费者。故选A。第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Feelinglikewhatyoudoisworthwhileisarguablyasignificantkeytoahappylife.Butwhatthismeansisdifferentforeachperson.Thesestrategiescanhelpyoufindyourpurposesoyoucanbeginlivingamoremeaningfullife.Donatetime,money,ortalent____36____.Altruistic(利他)behaviorsincludevolunteeringforanonprofitorganization,donatingmoneytocausesyoucareabout,orsimplyhelpingoutthepeoplearoundyouonaday-to-daybasis.Listentofeedback(反馈)Itcanbehardtorecognizethethingsyoufeelpassionateaboutsometimes.Afterall,thethingsyoulovetodomayhavebecomesoingrained(固化)inyourlifethatyoudon’trealizehowimportanttheyare.____37____.Thisisagoodchanceofdisplayingyourpassionandpurpose.StartconversationswithnewpeopleIt’seasytosurfsocialmediawhileyou’realoneonthesubway.Resistthaturge.____38____.Askthemiftheyareworkingonanyprojectsorwhattheyliketodoforfun.Talktothemaboutorganizationswithwhichtheyareinvolved.Youmightdiscovernewactivitiestoexplore.Andthoseactivitiesmightbekeytohelpingyoufindyourpurpose.____39____Areyouregularlysharingarticlesaboutclimatechange?Aretherepicturesofyouengaginginaparticularactivityoverandover,suchasgardeningorperforming?Considertheconversationsyouenjoyholdingwithpeoplethemostwhenyou’remeetingfacetoface.Doyouliketalkingabouthistory?Ordoyouprefersharingthelatestmoney-savingtipsyoudiscovered?____40____.A.ExploreyourinterestsB.Otherwise,itmaydragyoudownC.SpreadsunshinetopeoplethroughyoursmileD.Instead,takethetimetotalktothepeoplearoundyouE.YoucandevelophelpfulhabitsinyoursearchforpurposeF.ThethingsyouenjoysharingmayrevealyourpurposeinlifeG.Fortunately,otherpeoplemightbeabletogiveyousomeinsights【答案】36.E37.G38.D39.A40.F【解析】【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了如何定位人生价值。【36题详解】根据后文“Altruistic(利他)behaviorsincludevolunteeringforanonprofitorganization,donatingmoneytocausesyoucareabout,orsimplyhelpingoutthepeoplearoundyouonaday-to-daybasis.(利他行为包括为非营利组织做志愿者，为你关心的事业捐款，或者只是每天帮助你周围的人)”可知，本段的主旨是通过帮助他人来寻找人生价值。故E选项“你可以培养助人为乐的好习惯，从而寻找人生价值”符合语境，故选E。【37题详解】根据上文“Afterall,thethingsyoulovetodomayhavebecomesoingrained(固化)inyourlifethatyoudon’trealizehowimportanttheyare.(毕竟，你喜欢做的事情可能已经在你的生活中根深蒂固，以至于你没有意识到它们有多重要)”以及后文“Thisisagoodchanceofdisplayingyourpassionandpurpose.(这是一个展示你的激情和目标的好机会)”可知，上文提到了没有意识到喜欢做的事情有多重要，后文提到了展示的机会，可知本句说明机会是什么。故G选项“幸而他人的评价能助你认清自我”符合语境，故选G。【38题详解】根据上文“Resistthaturge.(抵制这种冲动)”以及后文“Askthemiftheyareworkingonanyprojectsorwhattheyliketodoforfun.Talktothemaboutorganizationswithwhichtheyareinvolved.Youmightdiscovernewactivitiestoexplore.Andthoseactivitiesmightbekeytohelpingyoufindyourpurpose.(问问他们是否在做什么项目，或者他们喜欢做什么有趣的事情。和他们谈谈他们参与的组织。你可能会发现新的活动。这些活动可能是帮助你找
