In 2019, Wang Jibing, a food delivery rider, had an unpleasant experience due to the wrong address left by a customer. Wang searched three buildings and climbed 18 floors before he finally managed to deliver the food to the customer, who rudely scolded Wang for arriving late. Wang was sad and frustrated. As a husband and father of three children, who shouldered the majority of the financial responsibility in his family, he had to bear all silently. On his way home that day, Wang wrote a poem, Man in a Hurry, expressing his feelings.
Since then, Wang has been writing poems inspired by his daily life, including a poem New Temple, which occurred to him after he delivered food to construction workers repairing an old temple, and Forgive, based on his observation of a young couple fighting.
Wang’s poems, simple yet real, are seen as a tool to process his emotions, especially the personal experiences he has during his work. His heart is healed by writing the poems, and he has shared them with his friends. In 2022, one of his friends posted Man in a Hurry online. It quickly went viral and was viewed for over 20 million times. The same year, Wang published a collection of more than 180 poems, under the same title. So far, Wang has written about 4,000 poems. This April, Wang published his second poetry collection, titled I Love This World Clumsily, featuring about 130 poems he has written since July 2022.
“Poetry is like a distraction from stress and an opportunity to record my life. Whether it’s coping with pain, dealing with stressful situations, or coming to terms with life’s struggles, poetry makes me confident and happy,” says Wang.
“The feedback from the readers is a big encouragement to me. Those poems carne to me naturally and I enjoyed writing them very much. However, the priority is to look after my family, so I will keep my regular job delivering food,” says Wang.

It’s a typical day at school. You’re playing soccer with your friends. One of them kicks you the ball and you run for it. You trip. You fly through the air. You land—hard, right on your face! The next moment, you’re in the nurse’s office. Your bleeding nose is being checked by laser sensors (激光传感器) that coming out of a...robot Has the nurse’s office been taken over by sci-fi aliens (外星人) from outer space
No. You’ve just been pushed forward 15 years into the future. And it’s a future that Susan Epstein, a computer science professor who teaches artificial intelligence, is really excited to think about. “I am crazy about this kind of thing! You could go up to the robot, put your nose in, and the machine would decide whether you needed to be treated, and how.”
Aside from being cool, an AI nurse has other advantages. It doesn’t need to take vacations. It doesn’t need to get paid a salary. And it might figure out what’s wrong with your nose faster than a human would. There are all kinds of ways that AI could be used to help make us healthier and researchers are studying how to use AI to diagnose (诊断) lung disease, cancer, and more.
Our robot nurse isn’t meant to completely take the place of humans, though. “It would work with real, live nurses and doctors,” says Epstein, “there are things humans are good at, like building trust among members of our own species or comforting someone who’s hurt or sick. A big part of medicine is the relationship between a doctor and a patient.”
Epstein points out that AI programs will never be perfect—no matter how much we might want them to be. But if AI can diagnose a deadly disease more precisely even 10 percent of the time, think of how many lives it could save. “Besides”, says Epstein, “I think there are probably patients who might prefer to have a machine for a doctor!” Would you
8. What’s the function of para 1
A. To introduce a scientific study.
B. To lead to the topic of the text.
C. To describe an experience of the writer.
D. To give an example to support an argument.
9. What can be inferred from Epstein’s words in para 4
A. Humans are better at treating patients than AI doctors.
B. AI doctors alone can cure patients of most of the diseases.
C. Patients’ trust in doctors may affect their treatments positively.
D. Patients may receive as much comfort from AI doctors as from humans.
10. What is true about AI doctors and nurses according to the text
A. They are better at trust-building.
B. They will take over humans.
C. Their biggest strength is being cool.
D. They are life-saving if properly used.
11. What’s Epstein’s attitude towards AI doctors and nurses!
A. Negative. B. Favorable. C. Doubtful. D. Unclear.
【答案】8. B 9. C 10. D 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要讲的是未来的机器人护士和医生的优点。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段的“You fly through the air. You land—hard, right on your face! The next moment, you’re in the nurse’s office. Your bleeding nose is being checked by laser sensors (激光传感器) that coming out of a. . robot Has the nurse’s office been taken over by sci-fi aliens (外星人) from outer space (你在空中飞翔。你着地,迎面着地!下一秒,你就在护士办公室了。你流血的鼻子正在接受激光传感器的检查。机器人吗?护士办公室是不是被来自外太空的科幻外星人占领了?)”和第二段的“No. You’ve just been pushed forward 15 years into the future. And it’s a future that Susan Epstein, a computer science professor who teaches artificial intelligence, is really excited to think about. “I am crazy about this kind of thing! You could go up to the robot, put your nose in, and the machine would decide whether you needed to be treated, and how.”(不。你被推到了15年后的未来。这是一个让教授人工智能的计算机科学教授Susan Epstein非常兴奋的未来。“我对这种事很着迷!你可以走到机器人面前,把鼻子伸进去,机器就会决定你是否需要治疗,以及如何治疗。”)”可知,第一段引出文章的主题,即未来的机器人护士,故选B。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段的““It would work with real, live nurses and doctors,” says Epstein, “there are things humans are good at, like building trust among members of our own species or comforting someone who’s hurt or sick.

【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段的“But if AI can diagnose a deadly disease more precisely even 10 percent of the time, think of how many lives it could save.(但如果人工智能能够更准确地诊断出一种致命疾病,哪怕只有10%的准确率,想想它能拯救多少生命吧)”可知,如果使用得当,人工智能医生和护士可以挽救生命,故选D。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段的“But if AI can diagnose a deadly disease more precisely even 10 percent of the time, think of how many lives it could save. “Besides”, says Epstein, “I think there are probably patients who might prefer to have a machine for a doctor!” Would you (但如果人工智能能够更准确地诊断出一种致命疾病,哪怕只有10%的准确率,想想它能拯救多少生命吧。“此外,”Epstein说,“我认为可能有些病人更愿意让医生用机器!你会吗”?)”可知,Epstein对人工智能医生和护士的态度是赞许的。故选B。

Horror movies are designed to cause seemingly bad emotions — shock, fear and disgust (厌恶). Yet many people want to sit through those films. Why Clasen, who directs the Recreational Fear Lab at Aarhus University in Denmark, made a survey of more than 250 American horror fans with his team, and the responses of those participants revealed three types of fans.
The first type felt great and were in high spirits. The second type reported some negative reactions to scary movies, and some even had nightmares at first, but they explained that they were feeling like they learned something about themselves at last. The third type of fans seemed to use horror to deal with bad feelings and events in real life. They supported statements such as “Watching horror movies makes me realize that everything in my own life is OK.”
According to previous studies, thrill seekers, who often seek out new and intense experiences, tend to be horror fans. Men also seemed to be slightly bigger horror fans than women. Clasen’s teammates didn’t think so. “They are stereotypes (老套),” they said. Men are less likely to admit in surveys that they are afraid of horror. Likewise, researchers think it’s unfair to paint all horror fans as thrill seekers. What may influence how much people like horror is something called the need for affections (情感). “People differ on that — how much emotion they want in their lives,” Clasen explained.
After watching a horror movie, you could be left unsettled and anxious, or you have nightmares, but it may actually help you become more prepared in real life. Horror fans reported lower levels of distress (忧虑) during the pandemic, for instance. “That’s because horror movies let people practise negative emotions in a safe setting,” Clasen said. “That way, when it comes to scary situations in real life, you know how to react quickly and correctly.”
Good or not, scary movies aren’t for everyone. And that’s OK. “Monster movies are good,” sociologist Margee Ker r said, “because you know that they’re not real.” “If you are not ready to watch a horror movie, there are other ways to test yourself. One is writing your own horror-movie story. If you are writing a story about something that you are afraid of, you are taking control of it,” she explained. “That can be really helpful.”
12. How did the second type of horror fans respond after watching horror movies
A. The movies made them feel worried about their real life for some time.
B. The movies stopped the fans from having unpleasant dreams.
C. The fans could have a better understanding of themselves.
D. The fans felt fantastic and were in high spirits.
13. What do the researchers mainly want to express in paragraph 3
A. The reason why people need affections. B. The reason why people love horror.
C. The concept of thrill seekers. D. The features of horror fans.
14. Why is the pandemic mentioned in paragraph 4
A. Horror movies can help people deal with scary situations quickly and correctly.
B. Horror movies can make people have a false judgement about scary situations.
C. Horror movies can help people get rid of negative emotions in real life.
D. Horror movies can make people unsettled and anxious in real life.
15. How can creating a horror story affect people
A. They can bring their sense of excitement under control.
B. They can bring their sense of fear under control.
C. They can take control of their sense of sadness.
D. They can take control of their sense of pride.
【答案】12. C 13. B 14. A 15. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要解释了喜爱恐怖电影的三种类型爱好者以及人们喜欢恐怖电影的原因。看恐怖电影实际上可以帮助你在现实生活中做好准备。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“The second type reported some negative reactions to scary movies, and some even had nightmares at first, but they explained that they were feeling like they learned something about themselves at last.(第二种类型的人对恐怖电影有一些负面反应,有些人一开始甚至做噩梦,但他们解释说,他们觉得他们终于了解了自己)”可知,第二类恐怖迷看完恐怖电影后的反应是可以更好地了解自己。故选C。
【13题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段中的“Likewise, researchers think it’s unfair to paint all horror fans as thrill seekers. What may influence how much people like horror is something called the need for affections (情感). “People differ on that — how much emotion they want in their lives,” Clasen explained.(同样,研究人员认为,把所有恐怖片爱好者都描绘成寻求刺激的人是不公平的。可能影响人们对恐怖片喜爱程度的是一种被称为情感需求的东西。“人们在这一点上是不同的——他们在生活中需要多少情感,”克拉森解释说)”可知,研究者在第三段主要想表达人们喜欢恐怖电影的原因。故选B。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中“Horror fans reported lower levels of distress during the pandemic, for instance.“That’s because horror movies let people practise negative emotions in a safe setting,” Clasen said. “That way, when it comes to scary situations in real life, you know how to react quickly and correctly.”(例如,恐怖爱好者报告说,在大流行期间,他们的痛苦程度较低。克拉森说:“这是因为恐怖电影让人们在一个安全的环境中练习消极情绪。这样,当遇到现实生活中的可怕情况时,你就知道如何快速、正确地做出反应。”)”可推知,第四段提到疫情是为了说明恐怖片可以帮助人们快速正确地处理可怕的情况。故选A。
【15题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“One is writing your own horror-movie story. If you are writing a story about something that you are afraid of, you are taking control of it(一个是写你自己的恐怖电影故事。如果你正在写一个关于你害怕的事情的故事,你正在控制它)”可知,创造一个恐怖故事可以控制自己的恐惧感,从而影响人们。故选B。

Four Ways to Beat the Monday Blues
For most workers and students, Monday is the toughest day, which implies that the happy weekend is over, while the new week of work and study has just begun. However, Monday always comes as usual. ____16____ The following four tips can help you greet the coming week full of energy.
____17____ Instead of focusing on the difficult tasks that lie ahead of you, you can make a list by writing down some things that you are looking forward to. A good place to start is to think of one thing you are excited about for each category: at work, after work, and at the weekend.
Sleep has a huge effect on our mood. According to Harvard Medical School, “poor sleep can cause easy anger and stress, while healthy sleep can increase well-being.” So, next time if you find yourself a little more short-tempered than normal, sleep may be the answer.____18____It’s worth taking this into consideration on Sunday to avoid a lack of energy on a Monday morning.
Don’t underestimate(低估)the power of clothing. In fact, psychologists conclude that the strong link between clothing and mood suggests we should put on clothes that we associate with happiness, even when feeling low.____19____
Keep Monday’s schedule a little lighter than other days. After a weekend of fun, don’t give yourself a too tight schedule, please take it easy.____20____It means putting some time into the easier tasks. Putting less pressure on yourself is a good way to beat the Monday Blues.
A. Just do small and easy things.
B. Think about all the good to come.
C. Since you can’t escape, you’d better face it bravely!
D. This doesn’t mean sitting around and being lost in your blues.
E. Reduce Monday Blues by allowing yourself to do everything with more ease.
F. In short, nothing is better than wearing what makes you feel great on Monday!
G. Take a nap to energize or get to bed earlier tonight to make up for sleep.
【答案】16. C 17. B 18. G 19. F 20. D
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主语介绍了四种战胜周一忧郁症的方法。
【详解】1.根据上文“However, Monday always comes as usual.”(然而,星期一总是像以往那样到来。)可知,周一总是会来的,所以空处应该是描写,我们要勇敢面对它,C项“Since you can’t escape, you’d better face it bravely”(既然你逃不了,你最好勇敢地面对它。)符合,承接上文,故选C。
2.分析文章结构可知,第一段点名主题,第二,三,四,五段,每段分别介绍了一种战胜周一忧郁症的方法,且每段第一句是主题句,所以该处为段落主题句。根据下文“Instead of focusing on the difficult tasks that lie ahead of you, you can make a list by writing down some things that you are looking forward to. A good place to start is to think of one thing you are excited about for each category: at work, after work, and at the weekend.”(与其把注意力集中在你面前的困难任务上,你可以列一个清单,写下一些你期待的事情。你可以从以下每一类中让你感到兴奋的事情开始:工作中,下班后,周末。)可知,本段主要讲你可以列举你向往的美好事情。所以B项“Think about all the good to come.”(想想所有即将到来的美好事物。)符合语境。故选B。
3.根据上文“So, next time if you find yourself a little more short-tempered than normal, sleep may be the answer.”(所以,下次如果你发现自己比平时脾气更暴躁,睡眠可能就是答案。)可知,此处指睡眠能改善自己脾气暴躁的情况,所以可以推断出空处应该描写如何睡觉能改善脾气不好的情况,G项“Take a nap to energize or get to bed earlier tonight to make up for lost sleep”(睡个午觉以补充能量或今晚早点上床睡觉来弥补失眠。)符合,承接上文,故选G。
4.根据上文“In fact, psychologists conclude that the strong link between clothing and mood suggests we should put on clothes that we associate with happiness, even when feeling low.”(事实上,心理学家得出结论,衣服和情绪之间的紧密联系表明,我们应该穿上与快乐有关的衣服,即使是在情绪低落的时候。)可知,本段主要讲衣服会影响情绪,所以要穿令你快乐的衣服,F项“In short, nothing is better than wearing what makes you feel great on Monday!”(简而言之,在周一穿着让你感觉很棒的衣服这比什么最重要!)符合,对上文进行总结。故选F。
5.根据上文“After a weekend of fun, don’t give yourself a too tight schedule, please take it easy.”(度过一个愉快的周末之后,不要给自己安排太紧的时间,请放松。)可知,此处指出我们要在愉快的周末后,要放松,所以可以推断出,空处应该是承接上文,对具体描述如何在愉快的周末后放松,D项“This doesn’t mean sitting around and being lost in your blues.”(这并不意味着坐在那里,沉浸在忧郁之中。)符合,承接上文,同时选项中“This doesn’t mean”与下文“It means”相呼应。故选D。

【36题详解】
考查副词。句意:由于前世界武术冠军陈思坦的努力,中国古代武术太极拳越来越受纽约人的欢迎。修饰动词become用副词,故填increasingly。
【37题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:由于前世界武术冠军陈思坦的努力,中国古代武术太极拳越来越受纽约人的欢迎。句中已有谓语动词,所以用非谓语动词形式。名词the efforts与make之间存在被动关系,用过去分词作后置定语。故填made。
【38题详解】

【43题详解】
考查冠词。句意:这种温和的锻炼方式有助于维持力量和保持平衡,几乎是一项适合每个人的活动。名词activity为可数名词,此处为泛指,意为“一项活动”。activity发音为元音音素开头,所以用不定冠词an。故填an。
【44题详解】

【45题详解】

46. The director was fully convinced that this moving story, if a____________ for television, would be a hit.(根据首字母单词拼写)
【答案】adapted##dapted
【解析】
【详解】考查状语从句的省略。句意:导演完全相信这个感人的故事,如果改编成电视剧,一定会大获成功。根据首字母提示及句意可知,用动词adapt,表示“改编”。if引导的条件状语从句的主语和主句主语一致,且含有be动词可知省略从句中的主语+be动词,adapt与逻辑主语this moving story之间为被动关系,所以用过去分词形式。故填adapted。
47. Last summer holiday, I went back to my hometown, only to find the neighbours and the house that I used to be f__________ with were gone.(根据首字母单词拼写)
【答案】familiar
【解析】
【详解】考查形容词。句意:去年暑假,我回老家,却发现以前熟悉的邻居和房子都不见了。此处用形容词familiar(熟悉的)作be 的表语,be familiar with(对……熟悉)。故填familiar。
48. Some students will have a growing sense of fear with the exam season a____________ while others may stay fairly calm. (根据首字母单词拼写)
【答案】approaching##pproaching
【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:随着考试季节的临近,一些学生会越来越有恐惧感,而另一些学生可能会保持相当的冷静。根据单词首字母以及句意可知应填动词approach,表示“靠近”,此处与season构成主动关系,故用现在分词作宾补。故填approaching。
49. The three young men jumped into the river to save the drowning boy d__________ the fact that none of them could swim. (根据首字母单词拼写)
【答案】despite
【解析】
【分析】
【详解】考查介词。句意:三名年轻人跳入河中,以挽救溺水的男孩,尽管他们没有一个会游泳。根据首字母提示可知,这里使用介词despite意为“尽管”后接the fact,符合语境。故填despite。
【点睛】
50. To my delight, I was chosen from hundreds of applicants to be a__________ into the face-to-face interview of Alibaba Group. (根据首字母单词拼写)
【答案】admitted
【解析】

51. Dreams can be a rich source of ______________(灵感) for an artist. (根据汉语提示单词拼写)
【答案】inspiration
【解析】
【详解】考查名词。句意:梦境可以是艺术家丰富的灵感来源。根据汉语提示“灵感”可知应填名词inspiration,作宾语,表抽象概念,不可数。故填inspiration。
52. Natural disasters are happening more __________ (频繁) than before; therefore the whole world should work together to respond. (根据汉语提示单词拼写)
【答案】frequently
【解析】
【分析】
【详解】考查副词的比较级。句意:自然灾害比以前更频繁地发生。 因此,全世界应该共同努力作出回应。根据汉语提示“频繁”可知,这里使用副词性形式作状语,frequently是副词,符合本局语境。故填frequently。
【点睛】
53. With all the pictures she was interested in bought, Mary left the shop with great __________ (满意). (根据汉语提示单词拼写)
【答案】satisfaction
【解析】
【分析】
【详解】考查名词。句意:玛丽买下了所有她感兴趣的画,心满意足地离开了商店。形容词great作定语修饰名词,所以空处需用名词,根据汉语提示可知,satisfaction满足,不可数名词,符合题意。故填satisfaction。
54. I offer my sincere __________ (祝贺) to you on passing the driving test. (根据汉语提示单词拼写)
【答案】congratulations
【解析】
【分析】
【详解】考查名词的数。句意:衷心祝贺你通过驾驶考试。根据汉语提示“祝贺”可知,congratulation是名词在句中作宾语,且作祝贺使用时常用复数形式,符合本句语境。故填congratulations。
【点睛】
55. The writer has always __________ (更喜欢) to live in a small quiet village though he was raised in a big city. (根据汉语提示单词拼写)
【答案】preferred
【解析】
【分析】
【详解】考查动词。句意:这位作家虽然在大城市长大,但他总是更喜欢住在一个安静的小村庄里。根据汉语提示可知,prefer更喜欢,动词,符合题意,此处谓语动词使用了现在完成时态:has done,所以空处动词需用过去分词preferred。故填preferred。

Wang searched three buildings and climbed 18 floors before he finally managed to deliver the food to the customer, who rudely scolded Wang for arriving late. Wang was sad and frustrated. As a husband and father of three children, who shouldered the majority of the financial responsibility in his family, he had to bear all silently. On his way home that day, Wang wrote a poem, Man in a Hurry, expressing his feelings.
Since then, Wang has been writing poems inspired by his daily life, including a poem New Temple, which occurred to him after he delivered food to construction workers repairing an old temple, and Forgive, based on his observation of a young couple fighting.
Wang’s poems, simple yet real, are seen as a tool to process his emotions, especially the personal experiences he has during his work. His heart is healed by writing the poems, and he has shared them with his friends. In 2022, one of his friends posted Man in a Hurry online. It quickly went viral and was viewed for over 20 million times. The same year, Wang published a collection of more than 180 poems, under the same title. So far, Wang has written about 4,000 poems. This April, Wang published his second poetry collection, titled I Love This World Clumsily, featuring about 130 poems he has written since July 2022.
“Poetry is like a distraction from stress and an opportunity to record my life. Whether it’s coping with pain, dealing with stressful situations, or coming to terms with life’s struggles, poetry makes me confident and happy,” says Wang.
“The feedback from the readers is a big encouragement to me. Those poems carne to me naturally and I enjoyed writing them very much. However, the priority is to look after my family, so I will keep my regular job delivering food,” says Wang.

It’s a typical day at school. You’re playing soccer with your friends. One of them kicks you the ball and you run for it. You trip. You fly through the air. You land—hard, right on your face! The next moment, you’re in the nurse’s office. Your bleeding nose is being checked by laser sensors (激光传感器) that coming out of a...robot Has the nurse’s office been taken over by sci-fi aliens (外星人) from outer space
No. You’ve just been pushed forward 15 years into the future. And it’s a future that Susan Epstein, a computer science professor who teaches artificial intelligence, is really excited to think about. “I am crazy about this kind of thing! You could go up to the robot, put your nose in, and the machine would decide whether you needed to be treated, and how.”
Aside from being cool, an AI nurse has other advantages. It doesn’t need to take vacations. It doesn’t need to get paid a salary. And it might figure out what’s wrong with your nose faster than a human would. There are all kinds of ways that AI could be used to help make us healthier and researchers are studying how to use AI to diagnose (诊断) lung disease, cancer, and more.
Our robot nurse isn’t meant to completely take the place of humans, though. “It would work with real, live nurses and doctors,” says Epstein, “there are things humans are good at, like building trust among members of our own species or comforting someone who’s hurt or sick. A big part of medicine is the relationship between a doctor and a patient.”
Epstein points out that AI programs will never be perfect—no matter how much we might want them to be. But if AI can diagnose a deadly disease more precisely even 10 percent of the time, think of how many lives it could save. “Besides”, says Epstein, “I think there are probably patients who might prefer to have a machine for a doctor!” Would you
8. What’s the function of para 1
A. To introduce a scientific study.
B. To lead to the topic of the text.
C. To describe an experience of the writer.
D. To give an example to support an argument.
9. What can be inferred from Epstein’s words in para 4
A. Humans are better at treating patients than AI doctors.
B. AI doctors alone can cure patients of most of the diseases.
C. Patients’ trust in doctors may affect their treatments positively.
D. Patients may receive as much comfort from AI doctors as from humans.
10. What is true about AI doctors and nurses according to the text
A. They are better at trust-building.
B. They will take over humans.
C. Their biggest strength is being cool.
D. They are life-saving if properly used.

A. Negative. B. Favorable. C. Doubtful. D. Unclear.
D
Horror movies are designed to cause seemingly bad emotions — shock, fear and disgust (厌恶). Yet many people want to sit through those films. Why Clasen, who directs the Recreational Fear Lab at Aarhus University in Denmark, made a survey of more than 250 American horror fans with his team, and the responses of those participants revealed three types of fans.
The first type felt great and were in high spirits. The second type reported some negative reactions to scary movies, and some even had nightmares at first, but they explained that they were feeling like they learned something about themselves at last. The third type of fans seemed to use horror to deal with bad feelings and events in real life. They supported statements such as “Watching horror movies makes me realize that everything in my own life is OK.”
According to previous studies, thrill seekers, who often seek out new and intense experiences, tend to be horror fans. Men also seemed to be slightly bigger horror fans than women. Clasen’s teammates didn’t think so. “They are stereotypes (老套),” they said. Men are less likely to admit in surveys that they are afraid of horror. Likewise, researchers think it’s unfair to paint all horror fans as thrill seekers. What may influence how much people like horror is something called the need for affections (情感). “People differ on that — how much emotion they want in their lives,” Clasen explained.
After watching a horror movie, you could be left unsettled and anxious, or you have nightmares, but it may actually help you become more prepared in real life. Horror fans reported lower levels of distress (忧虑) during the pandemic, for instance. “That’s because horror movies let people practise negative emotions in a safe setting,” Clasen said. “That way, when it comes to scary situations in real life, you know how to react quickly and correctly.”
Good or not, scary movies aren’t for everyone. And that’s OK. “Monster movies are good,” sociologist Margee Ker r said, “because you know that they’re not real.” “If you are not ready to watch a horror movie, there are other ways to test yourself. One is writing your own horror-movie story. If you are writing a story about something that you are afraid of, you are taking control of it,” she explained. “That can be really helpful.”
12. How did the second type of horror fans respond after watching horror movies
A. The movies made them feel worried about their real life for some time.
B. The movies stopped the fans from having unpleasant dreams.
C. The fans could have a better understanding of themselves.
D. The fans felt fantastic and were in high spirits.
13. What do the researchers mainly want to express in paragraph 3
A. The reason why people need affections. B. The reason why people love horror.
C The concept of thrill seekers. D. The features of horror fans.
14. Why is the pandemic mentioned in paragraph 4
A. Horror movies can help people deal with scary situations quickly and correctly.
B. Horror movies can make people have a false judgement about scary situations.
C. Horror movies can help people get rid of negative emotions in real life.
D. Horror movies can make people unsettled and anxious in real life.
15. How can creating a horror story affect people
A. They can bring their sense of excitement under control.
B. They can bring their sense of fear under control.
C. They can take control of their sense of sadness.
D. They can take control of their sense of pride.
