（一）（2022·北京·中考真题）
A Pathway (路径) to Meaning in Life
When it comes to a meaningful life, we might think of love, happiness and health. A life filled with meaning is
what most of us want for ourselves. Then, what makes a meaningful life?
Many researchers agree that a meaningful life comes down to three factors (因素): having long-term goals,
believing that one’s life matters, and feeling that one’s life fits together and “makes sense”.
But we believe there is more to consider. Sometimes life enables us to experience small moments of beauty.
When people are open to appreciating (欣赏) such experiences, these moments may improve how they see their
own life. We call this experiential appreciation (EA). EA is about the person feeling connected to events and being
able to appreciate the value within the connection. It shows the discovery of and admiration for life’s beauty.
We recently set out to better understand EA in studies. We were interested in whether EA was also tied to
general judgment of meaning in life. If so, it could be a factor for meaningfulness.
In the first study, we had people rate (评估) their support for different methods of reducing stress. We found
that people who managed stress by focusing on their appreciation for life’s beauty also reported experiencing life as
highly meaningful.
In the next study, we asked people to rate the degree to which they agreed with various statements, such as “I
appreciate the beauty of life” and “I appreciate little things in life,” as well as other statements that related to the
three factors and a general sense of meaning in life. Our results showed that the more people reported that they
were “appreciating life” and its many experiences, the more they felt their life was valuable.
In the following studies, we further looked at the connection between EA and meaningfulness. For example,
we found that people who were asked to look back on the most meaningful event of the past week generally
reported high EA in those moments.
All the results proved our theory (假设) true. But putting it into practice can be difficult. Our fast-paced
lifestyles fill the day with goals. We try to get the highest output both at work and in spare time. This focus on
future outcomes makes it all too easy to miss what is happening right now. We should slow down and let life
surprise us.
1．You were most probably in the EA condition when _________.
A．you made a travel plan for the coming holiday
B．you hurried to serve the customers in the store
C．you practiced hard to become the best violinist
D．you stopped to admire the roses by the roadside
2．What can we learn from the studies mentioned in the passage?
A．Thinking back to the past weakens our sense of meaning.
B．Enjoying small things can influence our attitude toward life.
C．Proper stress management is the key to living a satisfying life.
D．Good judgment on beauty improves connections among people.
3．What does the last paragraph mainly tell us?
A．It is easier for results-driven people to achieve success.
B．We often turn a blind eye to the present moment.
C．A fast-paced lifestyle helps us reach our goals.
D．Future life will bring us many more surprises.
4．What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage?
A．To explain how to discover beauty in life.
B．To discuss what the true meaning of life is.
C．To introduce a new factor for a meaningful life.
D．To compare different factors for meaningfulness.
（二）（2022·山东枣庄·中考真题）
During the past summer season, photos of snow leopards were taken by five different special cameras in
Pingwu, Sichuan province, surprising many wildlife scientists. This shows that the living area of snow leopards in
China’s southwestern mountains has become larger.
Pingwu, about 4,200 meters above the sea level, is famous for being home to a large number of wild pandas.
The fourth national survey of pandas in 2015 found that there were 1,864 wild pandas in China, including 335 in
Pingwu. As a result, over half of Pingwu’s land area has become part of the Panda National Park, which has a
planned area of 22,000 square kilometers across Sichuan, Shaanxi and Gansu provinces. It is among five national
parks China named in October, 2021.
Through shutting down mines (煤矿), planting more trees and other measures, protection efforts in the park
have not only made pandas less endangered, but also are offering safety and protection for other rare species (珍稀
物种). About 87% of the Panda National Park lies in Sichuan. It’s the home of more than 8,000 species of animals
and plants.
The province has used special cameras and forest protectors as a closely connected protection system.
Thousands of forest protectors have been working year-round on more than 900 routes. Over the past four years,
they have met rare animals for about 1,600 times. In Pingwu alone, more than 4,100 species of plants and 1,900
species of animals have benefited from the protection of pandas. For example, the number of takin, a rare animal,
has increased by 10% over the past ten years. Meanwhile, the protection of pandas causes the development of
human society, too.
5．Why does the Panda National Park include Pingwu?
A．Because Pingwu is about 4,200 meters above the sea level.
B．Because there are 1,864 wild pandas in Pingwu.
C．Because there are many wild pandas in Pingwu.
D．Because it has an area of 22,000 square kilometers.
6．What’s the Chinese meaning of the underlined word “benefited” in Paragraph 4?
A．受益 B．受害 C．支持 D．获得
7．Which is the best title of this passage?
A．The Reasons for Protecting Pandas B．Good Results of Protecting Pandas
C．The Introduction of Pingwu D．The Animals and Plants in Pingwu
