2024·吉林长春监测 说明文 285词 ★★★★☆
Reversal—change your perspective and solve your problem
It's often your definition of a problem that limits you in finding a suitable solution. Creative
solutions require a change of perspective. __1__
The reversal technique is a creative thinking technique that is based on the thought that to
change your perspective, you sometimes need to change the order of the words in your problem
definition.
How you change the order of the words doesn't matter much, as long as the key words are
reversed.__2__ Your challenge is “How do we make sure that fewer people take cars to their
work？”. Swapping (掉换) the key words, you could rephrase this challenge as “How do we
make sure that fewer cars take people to their work？”．
Not every problem statement is suitable for a reversal. Sometimes using this technique
requires you to first rephrase the question altogether. __3__ For instance, the question
“How might we sell more washing machines？” is not easily reversed—there is no key word
to swap with “washing machines”. Yet, when you rephrase the question to “How might we sell
more washing machines to young parents？”， you can easily change it to “How might we
sell more young parents washing machines？”. __4__ You could interpret this last sentence
as “the washing machine pays the young parents to try it out”. Then, you could start
communicating to potential buyers how much they will save each year when they choose your
energyefficient washing machines.
As this example shows, some reversals will require a very flexible way of thinking. __5__
However, thinking about the tiny amount of time it will “cost” you to try out a reversal, you have
very little to lose and, potentially, lots to gain.
A．The problem statement is much more logical.
B．Often it helps to add one or more key words to the sentence.
C．Rephrasing your challenge is to change the problem statement.
D．A great way to do this is by “reversing” your problem statement.
E．For instance, imagine you are responsible for limiting the traffic jam in your area.
F．Admittedly, it is a very unusual challenge, but it might just stimulate a creative thought.
G．Not everyone will be able to move from an unreasonable statement to a useful solution.
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。文章通过事例向读者介绍了一种创造性思维技巧
——逆向技巧。
1．答案与解析：D 根据上文的“Creative solutions require a change of perspective”(创
造性的解决方案需要改变观点)以及下文的“The reversal technique is a creative thinking
technique”(逆向技巧是一种创造性思维技巧)可知，空处应填创造性的解决方案是逆向技巧。
D项“做到这一点的一个很好的方法是‘颠倒’你的问题陈述”符合题意。2．答案与解析：E 根据上文的“How you change the order of the words doesn't matter
much，as long as the key words are reversed”(你如何改变单词的顺序并不重要，只要关键字
是颠倒的)以及下文的“Your challenge is...‘How do we make sure that fewer cars take people
to their work？’”(你面临的挑战是“我们如何确保开车上班的人更少？”。掉换关键词，
你可以把这个挑战重新表述为“我们如何确保更少的车载着人们去上班？”)可知，本段是
在列举关键字颠倒过来的例子，并且有关道路交通。E项“例如，设想你要负责限制你所
在地区的交通阻塞”符合题意。
3．答案与解析：B 根据上文的“Sometimes using this technique requires you to first
rephrase the question altogether”(有时使用这个技巧需要你首先重新表述问题)以及下文的
“For instance, the question... ‘washing machines’”(例如，“我们如何才能卖出更多的
洗衣机？”这一问题是不容易颠倒的，没有一个关键词可以和“洗衣机”掉换)可知，重新
表述问题与关键词有关。B项“通常，在句子中加一个或多个关键词是有帮助的”符合题
意。
4．答案与解析：F 根据上文的“Yet, when you rephrase the question...‘How might we
sell more young parents washing machines？’”(然而，当你把这个问题重新表述为“我们如
何才能向年轻的父母出售更多洗衣机？”时，你可以容易地把它改成“我们如何才能把洗
衣机卖给更多的年轻父母？”)可知，这种办法可以激发创造性思维。F项“诚然，这是一
个非常不寻常的挑战，但它可能会激发创造性思维”符合题意。
5．答案与解析：G 根据上文的“As this example shows, some reversals will require a
very flexible way of thinking”(正如这个例子所示，一些颠倒将需要非常灵活的思维方式)以
及下文的“However, thinking about... potentially, lots to gain”(然而，考虑到你尝试颠倒所
“花费”的时间很短，你不会损失什么，但潜在地，你会得到很多)可猜测，做出这些颠倒
很困难，需要耗费脑力。G项“不是每个人都能把一个不合理的陈述变成一个有用的解决
方案”符合题意。

Ⅲ.读后续写
阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
[2024·合肥市质检]Sam, Wayne and Tim were three men in their 60s, jamming in the same
dusty old garage where they used to play music when they were in high school. They chatted
about old days, remembering the school days when they would take the stage and play together as
a band.
Wayne looked around, wideeyed. “It's been more than 40 years since we practised here.”
“Yes! And remember how we promised to keep in touch and play together once a week？”
Tim laughed.“Sam, remember our brilliant plans？”
“Ah yes! We thought we were inseparable! Now, look at us! Old and wrinkled, joints
hurting, meeting at each other's grandkids' weddings... we're terrible at keeping in touch, except
Will, of course. He was always calling and messaging. Where is Will? He's the guy who planned
this，” Sam smiled.
Just then，the three men's phones buzzed (嗡嗡地响), and the message they received made
their hearts sink. It was a message from Jenny, Will's wife. Wayne rushed to his car, and the others
followed. A short drive later, the three men knocked on the door of Will's house and tried to wait
patiently.Jenny looked almost unrecognizably pale and told them that Will was taking a nap. The
medicines made him all weak. It moved the three men to tears to see their fourth band member in
such poor health.
And that day, they found out the whole story of Will's illness. Will's heart condition was
serious, and it had been worsening over the past few months. The doctor said only an operation
could help. But it was going to cost at least $15，000. And after all the previous treatments, Will
and Jenny didn't have that kind of money anymore. Jenny said the doctors had given Will 6
months, bursting into helpless tears. The three men comforted her and wiped their own tears.
“Money isn't an issue，” Sam said as an idea came to him.
注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；

One possible version：
The next day, the three men brought their instruments to the busy street corner. They
set up the sound, and there was a stand with the band name “Playing for Will” and a big stack of
flyers to hand out. The men stood there for hours, playing song after song from the golden era of
music. They were still perfect together, except for Will's soulful voice that was missing. Although
they were very busy, they were very happy to collect money for Will.
Will was finally admitted to hospital three months later. With enough money, they paid
for Will's lifesaving surgery. The doctors were highly qualified and the surgery was very
successful. Will soon recovered smoothly. Will and Jenny were very grateful to their three friends.
After that, there was another jam session at the same dusty old garage. Only this time, there
weren't just three happy old men recalling the old days; there were four. It seemed like yesterday
once more.
答题策略
语法填空——非谓语动词
非谓语动词之间区分步骤实例(1)
例题 When electricity was discovered in the late1800s, people________ (live) in remote areas
began to use them to produce electricity.
步骤
找逻辑主语：people发生live这一动作，
①
people是逻辑主语
判断主被动关系：people与live之间是逻辑
②
上的主动关系
判断时间关系：live动作与谓语动作began同
③
时发生，用living
答案,living 逻辑主语people与live之间存在逻辑上的主动关系，live动作与谓语动词
began动作同时发生，故用其动词ing形式living作后置定语，修饰people。
