Finding meaning
This is a part of Debra Jarvis’ speech at TED in 2014, which described what she learned when she was a cancer patient.
In 2005, it was at a big cancer center where I was working 36 I received the news that my mother had breast cancer. And then five days later, I received the news that I had breast cancer. My mother and I can be competitive, but I was really not trying to 37 with her on this one.
I learned a lot being a patient, and one of the surprising things was that only a small part of the cancer experience is about 38 . Most of it is about feelings and faith, losing and 39 your identity, and discovering 40 you never even knew you had. It’s about realizing that the most important things in life are not things at all, 41 relationships. It’s about laughing in the 42 of uncertainty and learning that the way to get out of almost anything is to say: “I 43 cancer.”
So the other thing I 44 was that I don’t have to 45 “cancer survivor” as my identity. Sometimes, it feels like people are too crazy 46 it and they start telling us how we’re going to feel.
About a week after my operation, we had a houseguest. So at dinner that night, our houseguest said: “You know, Deb, now you’re really going to learn what’s 47 . Yes, you are going to make some big changes in your life, and now you’re going to start 48 about your death. Yep, this cancer is your wake-up call.” Now, these are golden 49 coming from someone who is speaking about their own experience, but when someone is telling you how you are going to feel, it doesn’t 50 . After my treatment, it just felt like everyone was telling me what my 51 was going to mean.
It was at that point where I felt like, oh my God, this is just 52 over my life. And that’s when I told myself: Take charge of your experience. Don’t let it 53 you. We all know that the way to deal with this unpleasant experience, with loss, with any life-changing experience, is to find 54 . But here’s the thing: No one can tell us what our experience means. We have to 55 what it means.
36. A. where B. that C. what D. which
37. A. agree B. struggle C. argue D. compete
38. A. medicine B. adventure C. life D. money
39. A. receiving B. finding C. defending D. exchanging
40. A. strength B. fitness C. energy D. force
41. A. and B. so C. but D. for
42. A. middle B. front C. face D. course
43. A. hate B. have C. dislike D. advocate
44. A. assumed B. studied C. recognized D. learned
45. A. take on B. take off C. take back D. take in
46. A. at B. about C. on D. of
47. A. remote B. splendid C. important D. original
48. A. debating B. worrying C. quarrelling D. thinking
49. A. languages B. rules C. words D. sayings
50. A. work out B. pay off C. hold out D. make sense
51. A. experience B. puzzle C. loss D. effect
52. A. handing B. getting C. taking D. turning
53. A. allocate B. control C. instruct D. blame

第三部分：阅读理解（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）
请阅读下列短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
In animated films, we often have some lovely characters that make us laugh and relax. Look at the following three columns and know some of them.
The Penguins
Skipper and his fellow penguins were originally just supporting roles in animated film Madagascar (2005). But in 2008 they took leading roles in their own TV series, and in 2014 starred in the film Penguins of Madagascar. The penguins’ wisdom and humor not only appeal to kids, but also serve adult audiences well. So, it’s not surprising that they get their own movie.
Scrat
A small and furry squirrel with a long tail from animated movie Ice Age (2002), Scrat played a supporting role but has won the hearts of both children and grown-ups with his persistence(毅力). In the film, his chasing after his prized acorn(橡子) causes an Earth-shattering geological event. Scrat is a big part in the lasting attraction of the movie series Ice Age. Today, Scrat has his own animated mini-movies.
Puss in Boots
Originally a fairy tale written by French author Charles Perrault, Puss in Boots features a cat that helps his low-born master gain wealth and power through trickery(哄骗). The cat later appeared as a supporting role in Shrek 2 (2004), Shrek 3 (2007) and Shrek 4 (2010). In 2011, he had his own movie titled Puss in Boots. His lovable and funny characteristics easily break the boundaries between different ages of audiences.
56. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Skipper took a leading role in Madagascar (2005).
B. Scrat won children’s hearts by playing with his acorn.
C. Scrat contributes a lot to the movie series Ice Age.
D. Puss in Boots(2011) features a cat helping poor people.
57. What is the similarity among these animated characters?
A. They used to play leading roles successfully.
B. Only children show great affection for them.
C. They won their popularity through trickery.
D. All of them have starred in their own movies.
B
Confusion gets a bad rap. A textbook that confuses its readers sounds like a bad textbook. Teachers who confuse their students sound like bad teachers. But research suggests that some of the time, confusion can actually be a good thing — an important step toward learning. Why?
One possibility is that confusion is not itself beneficial, but rather a marker that an important cognitive(认知的) process has taken place: The learner has appreciated some inconsistency(矛盾) or deficit(差距) in her previous beliefs. But another possibility is that confusion is itself a step toward learning — an experience that motivates the learner to find an acceptable way of dealing with an inconsistency or improve some deficit. In this view, confusion isn’t just a side effect of beneficial cognitive processes, but a beneficial process itself. Supporting this stronger view, there’s evidence that experiencing difficulties in learning can sometimes be desirable, leading to deeper processing and better long-term memory.
Of course, confusion isn’t always a good thing. Sometimes a textbook is truly terrible, or a teacher impossible to understand. Being confused by something unrelated to what you’re trying to learn (like why the teacher is wearing mismatching shoes) is unlikely to help you learn the content you’re after. Moreover, experiencing confusion without the resources to solve that confusion could lead to frustration.
So confusion is likely to benefit learning under specific conditions: when it’s related to the material you’re trying to understand, and when you have the necessary support to work through the confusion — whether that support comes from your own skills and previous knowledge or from other people or resources.
The relationship between confusion and learning might not be news to children and to scientists, who are both in the business of new discovery. In the course of development, children have to discover basic aspects of the social and physical world for themselves. And in the course of doing science, scientists push the limits of what we know. I suppose that both children and scientists also share the characteristics of spending a grea
