　　Ⅰ.閱讀理解(共兩節(jié))

　　第一節(jié)　閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)(A、B、C、D)中，選出最佳選項(xiàng)。

　　The 2024 Nobel Prize in Literature went to the French novelist for “the art of memory with which he has uncovered the life-world of the occupation”．

　　Although the 69-year-old writer is a very popular literary figure in France，he is little known elsewhere.

　　So who is this Patrick Modiano，why does his memory have such an influence upon him，and what exactly has he uncovered?

　　Modiano was born in a suburb of Paris right after World War II ended in Europe in July 1945.His father was a Jewish-Italian businessman who met his Belgian actress mother during the Nazi occupation of Paris.

　　As The New Yorker magazine put it，Europeans born in 1945 share a condition—They escaped the war，but “not the taint (污點(diǎn)) of the war”．

　　Modiano’s life has been influenced by Nazi Germany’s occupation during the war，and his family’s connections to it.According to New York-based newspaper Forward，his father survived the war dishonorably.When Paris’s Jews were brought together to be sent to concentration camps，the businessman did not join them but spent the time making money from deals with Nazis on the black market.

　　“The novelist has a duty to record the lives of the people who have disappeared，the people who were made to disappear，” French writer Clemence Boulouque，also an expert in Jewish studies，told The New Yorker magazine.

　　In his more than three dozen novels，Modiano has returned again and again to the same themes：Jewishness，the Nazi occupation，and the loss of identity.His characters collect pieces of old evidence，handwriting，photographs，police files，and newspaper cuttings.

　　His most admired novel，Missing Person，is a good example.It’s the story about a detective who has lost his memory.He tries to find out who he really is by following his own steps through history.

　　Although Modiano’s win is a surprise outside France，people are celebrating in his home country.Modiano is the 15th French literature winner.After Le Clezio’s 2008 win，it seemed unlikely that there would be another so soon.

　　Happiness is the only true measure of personal success.Making other people happy is the highest expression of success.1.

　　With that in mind，here are some suggestions that will immediately increase the amount of happiness in your life：2.

　　If there’s any big truth about life，it’s that it usually lives up to your expectations.Therefore，when you rise from bed，make your first thought：“Something wonderful is going to happen today.” Guess what？You’re probably right.

　　Take time to plan and prioritize (優(yōu)先處理)

　　The most common source of stress is the thought that you’ve got too much work to do.Rather than worry about it，pick one thing that will move you closer to your highest goal and purpose in life.Then do that first.

　　Eat high quality food slowly

　　3．

　　Even so，at least once a day try to eat something really delicious，like a small chunk of fine cheese or an imported chocolate.Taste it， focus on it and enjoy it.

　　Let go of your results

　　The big enemy of happiness is worry，which comes from focusing on events that are outside your control.Once you’ve taken action，there’s usually nothing more you can do.4.

　　【解題導(dǎo)語(yǔ)】　本文是一篇哲理性散文。文章給我們提供了找到幸福、把握幸福的方法。對(duì)每個(gè)人來(lái)說(shuō)，過(guò)得開(kāi)心才是最大的成功，也只有你保持愉悅才能為身邊的人帶去幸福。

　　1．解析：選D。根據(jù)前文可知，作者認(rèn)為幸福是衡量個(gè)人幸福的重要標(biāo)準(zhǔn)，能讓別人感到開(kāi)心的人是很成功的；但是下文又開(kāi)始闡述如何讓自己的生活感到幸福，所以此處應(yīng)該是一個(gè)轉(zhuǎn)折句。句意：如果你自己都不開(kāi)心是不可能讓別人感到高興的。

　　2．解析：選A。根據(jù)該空后的“If there’s any big truth about life，it’s that it usually lives up to your expectations.”以及該段內(nèi)容可知，本段是說(shuō)人應(yīng)該心懷希望。句意：充滿(mǎn)希望地開(kāi)始每一天。

　　3．解析：選F。根據(jù)標(biāo)題“Eat high quality food slowly”可知，本段是想告訴大家要能夠慢慢享受食物，但現(xiàn)實(shí)生活中我們常常做不到這樣。句意：有時(shí)候我們不可避免地迅速吃完食物然后繼續(xù)工作。

　　4．解析：選G。根據(jù)本段內(nèi)容可知，對(duì)無(wú)法控制的未來(lái)感到焦慮是阻礙幸福的因素，我們只要專(zhuān)注于能夠做到的事情就好了。句意：專(zhuān)注于手中的事情而不是那些可能會(huì)發(fā)生的幻想。

　　5．解析：選E。本段主要告訴了我們每一天結(jié)束時(shí)都應(yīng)該對(duì)這一天發(fā)生的事情心懷感激。句意：不論因?yàn)槭裁词拢覀兌家膽迅屑ぃ驗(yàn)檫@樣的一天再也不會(huì)出現(xiàn)。
