(23-24高二上·四川乐山·期末)How to Make New Year’s Resolutions
Do you make resolutions in the new year? 1 However, you will give yourself your best shot at
success if your resolutions are SMART (specific, measurable, achievable, realistic and time-bound).
Specific. Your resolutions should be absolutely clear. Making a specific goal is really important rather than
just roughly saying “I want to lose weight.” How much weight do you want to lose and how long will it last? 2
Measurable. Establish standards for measuring progress toward the achievement of each goal you set. If, for
example, you want to learn a foreign language, memorize 20 words or practise speaking it for 30 minutes every
day. 3
Achievable. This doesn’t mean that you can’t have big goals. 4 Saving enough money to retire in
five years when you are 30 years old is unlikely to achieve, but saving an extra $100 a month is accessible.
Realistic. 5 Are you willing to devote time and energy to it? You truly know that it can be
accomplished with your abilities and resources available to you. When you identify the goals, you begin to figure out
ways that you make them come true.
Time-bound. The timeline toward reaching your goals should be clear and realistic. That means having enough
time to do them with lots of smaller goals set up along the way. Focus on these small achievements, and you can
make gradual progress.
A.Does this goal really matter to you?
B.You can make plans to achieve them.
C.They are more easily made than achieved.
D.The following tips can help achieve your resolutions.
E.But trying to take too big a step too fast can make you disappointed.
F.Five pounds in the next two months—that’s going to be more effective.
G.Recording progress into a journal or making notes in an App can encourage your perseverance.
【答案】1.C 2.F 3.G 4.E 5.A
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要就如何实现新年决心提出了一些建议。
1.根据上文“Do you make resolutions in the new year?(你在新的一年里有决心吗?)”以及后文“However,
学科网(北京)股份有限公司 学科网(北京)股份有限公司you will give yourself your best shot at success if your resolutions are SMART (specific, measurable, achievable,
realistic and time-bound).(然而,如果你的决心是明智的(具体的、可衡量的、可实现的、现实的、有时间
限制的),你就会给自己最大的成功机会。)”可知,本句回答上文关于新年决心的问题,说明其中存在困
难,因此需要方法。故C选项“下决心容易,实现却难”符合语境,故选C。
2.根据上文“Specific. Your resolutions should be absolutely clear. Making a specific goal is really important
rather than just roughly saying “I want to lose weight.” How much weight do you want to lose and how long will it
last?(具体。你的决心应该非常明确。制定一个具体的目标真的很重要,而不是只是粗略地说“我想减肥”。
你想减掉多少体重,能持续多久?)”可知,本句为本段最后一句,故承接上文,说明减肥数字如何具体更
有效。故F选项“接下来的两个月减5磅——这样会更有效”符合语境,故选F。
3.根据上文“Measurable. Establish standards for measuring progress toward the achievement of each goal you
set. If, for example, you want to learn a foreign language, memorize 20 words or practise speaking it for 30 minutes
every day.(可衡量的。为实现你设定的每个目标建立衡量进展的标准。例如,如果你想学习一门外语,每
天记住20个单词或练习说30分钟。)”可知,本句承接上文,说明如何记录学习外语的进度,来达到可衡
量的目标。故G选项“把进度记录在日记上或在App上做笔记可以鼓励你坚持下去”符合语境,故选G。
4.根据上文“Achievable. This doesn’t mean that you can’t have big goals.(可以实现的。这并不意味着你不能
有大的目标。)”以及后文“Saving enough money to retire in five years when you are 30 years old is unlikely to
achieve, but saving an extra $100 a month is accessible.(攒够五年后30岁退休的钱不太可能实现,但每月多存
100美元是可以做到的。)”可知,本句与上文构成转折,指出太大目标的不利影响。故E选项“但是试图
太快迈出太大的一步会让你失望”符合语境,故选E。
5.根据后文“Are you willing to devote time and energy to it? You truly know that it can be accomplished with
your abilities and resources available to you. When you identify the goals, you begin to figure out ways that you
make them come true.(你愿意为此投入时间和精力吗?你确实知道你可以用你的能力和资源来完成它。当你
确定了目标,你就开始想办法让它们实现。)”可知,本句与后文一句并列,都是针对目标进行设问,A选
项中this goal对应后文it。故A选项“这个目标对你真的重要吗?”符合语境,故选A。
(23-24高二上·云南·期末)All living things need clean, fresh water to survive. Ninety-seven percent of the
water on earth is in the ocean. The salt in the ocean water makes it unusable for drinking. Another two percent is
frozen in the ice caps and glaciers on the Earth. 1 There are many factors that affect the amount of water
available for you. Where you live, the amount of rain that falls, and how water is collected and reserved all affect the
amount of cool, clear water available.
One factor that we can’t change is where it will rain. The amount of rain an area receives affects the amount
学科网(北京)股份有限公司 学科网(北京)股份有限公司of water available for use. Some major cities are located in areas where they can get water from the ground. 2
Those places with no water readily available must pipe water in from far away.
According to a study done by the state of California, the average person uses over one hundred gallons of
water per day. Water is used for drinking, taking a shower or bath, brushing teeth, washing hands, cleaning dishes,
doing laundry, and flushing toilets. 3
No matter where you live, there are many ways you can help conserve water. Today, we have many helpful
tools to help us save water. There are low-flow shower heads and faucets(水龙头), dishwashers and washing machines
that use up to 50% less water. 4
There are many other ways you can help. 5 Take a shower rather than a bath. It’s also important to fix
leaky faucets. If you find one, let your parents know. A good way to have cool water available all the time is to keep a
pitcher in the fridge. This way you won’t have to wait for the water in the pipes to bring you colder water to drink.
Only run your clothes washer and dishwasher when they are full. This can save hundreds of gallons of water a year.
All of these will help to conserve water. Leaning to use it wisely will ensure that it will always be available.
So, make a fuss and conserve water. It’s worth it!
A.Using water wisely is important.
B.Water is an important natural resource.
C.Don’t leave the water running when you brush your teeth.
D.Other areas use surface water from lakes, rivers, or streams.
E.This leaves one percent of the water on Earth available for us to use.
F.Installing these items in your home is the first line of defense against wasting water.
G.Wherever we live, we must be careful with the polluted water we have in our part of the world.
【答案】1.E 2.D 3.A 4.F 5.C
【导语】这是一篇说明文,文章主要介绍了影响我们可用水的因素以及几种节约用水的方法和建议。
1.根据上文的“All living things need clean, fresh water to survive. Ninety-seven percent of the water on earth is
in the ocean. The salt in the ocean water makes it unusable for drinking. Another two percent is frozen in the ice
caps and glaciers on the Earth.(所有生物都需要干净、新鲜的水才能生存。地球上97%的水都在海洋中。海
水中的盐分使它不能饮用。另外2%被冻结在地球上的冰帽和冰川中。)”和下文的“There are many factors
that affect the amount of water available for you. Where you live, the amount of rain that falls, and how water is
collected and reserved all affect the amount of cool, clear water available.(有很多因素会影响你能得到的水。你
居住的地方,降雨量,以及水的收集和储存方式都会影响到凉爽、清澈的水的数量。)”可知,E项(这使得
学科网(北京)股份有限公司 学科网(北京)股份有限公司地球上只有1%的水可供我们使用。)承接上文,说明了人类可以使用的水并不多,下文指出在这1%的水中
还有许多因素影响人们可用的水。故选E项。
2.根据上文的“One factor that we can’t change is where it will rain. The amount of rain an area receives affects
the amount of water available for use. Some major cities are located in areas where they can get water from the
ground.(我们不能改变的一个因素是下雨的地点。一个地区的降雨量影响着可用水量。一些大城市位于可
以从地下取水的地区。)”和下文的“Those places with no water readily available must pipe water in from far

know. A good way to have cool water available all the time is to keep a pitcher in the fridge. This way you won’t
have to wait for the water in the pipes to bring you colder water to drink. Only run your clothes washer and
dishwasher when they are full. This can save hundreds of gallons of water a year.(用淋浴代替泡澡。修理漏水的
水龙头也很重要。如果你找到了,告诉你的父母。让冷水随时可用的一个好方法是在冰箱里放一个水罐。
这样你就不用等水管里的水给你带来更冷的水喝了。洗衣机和洗碗机满了的时候再开动。这样每年可以节
省数百加仑的水。 )”可知,C项(刷牙的时候不要让水开着。)承接上文,举例说明了一种节约用水的方法,
下文继续举例说明节约用水的方法。故选C项。
(23-24高二上·福建莆田·期末)Walking has been considered as one kind of rewarding exercise. For many
people, daily walking offers massive and long-term physical and mental benefits. 1 A Stanford University
学科网(北京)股份有限公司 学科网(北京)股份有限公司study found that participants were more creative when walking as opposed to sitting.
2 You’ve probably heard the phrase “exercise your creativity”. Our creative mindset is stirred up by
physical movement, which is exactly why walking with your dog, a friend, or alone feeds creative thinking.
But the scenery is almost as important as the sweat. Just by going outside, you are stepping out of your habitual
surroundings and your comfort zone, which is necessary if you want to open your mind to new possibilities. You can
walk through a tree-filled neighborhood. 3 Even when you walk down a busy street, you can’t help but
get distracted by the sweet smells from a food cart or the child pointing to a building you haven’t even noticed
before.
Walking outside develops our ability to collect new ideas and take in new sights, sounds, smells, and flavors.
Shinrin-yoku, a common form of relaxation in Japan, suggests that being in the forest and walking among the trees
there can lower your stress levels. 4 Research has shown that
getting close to nature around your neighborhood or taking a break from multimedia increases performance on a
creative problem-solving task.
So instead of setting a fitness goal, why not set a creativity goal that starts with walking outdoors? 5
For example, you can turn off your phone and give yourself the chance to be present in the world, to hear conversations
and natural sounds, and to notice the way people move and the way the sun reflects in a lake.
Walk not just for exercise. Walk for wonder.
A.Unfortunately, you often fail to do it.
B.Expose yourself more to your surroundings.
C.The movement during walking is obviously key.
D.Without enough energy, you cannot wonder or create.
E.But to receive the benefits, you do not have to live in a forest.
F.This habit, however, not only benefits well-being but also contributes to innovation.
G.Wandering around a park and observing people relaxing or birds singing is also a choice.
【答案】1.F 2.C 3.G 4.E 5.B
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了散步不仅对身心健康有好处,还有助于激发创造力。
1.根据上文“Walking has been considered as one kind if rewarding exercises. For many people, daily walking
offers massive and long-term physical and mental benefits.(散步被认为是一种有益的运动。对许多人来说,每
天散步对身体和精神都有巨大而长期的好处。)”和下文“A Stanford University study found that participants
were more creative when walking as opposed to sitting.(斯坦福大学的一项研究发现,参与者在走路时比坐着
学科网(北京)股份有限公司 学科网(北京)股份有限公司时更有创造力。)”可知,此处是指散步不仅对身心健康有好处,还有助于创造。F项:This habit, however,
not only benefits well-being but also contributes to innovation.(然而,这种习惯不仅有益于健康,而且有助于
创新。)符合语境。故选F。
2.根据下文“Our creative mindset is stirred by physical movement, which is exactly why walking with your
dog, a friend, or alone feeds creative thinking.(我们的创造性思维是由身体运动激发的,这就是为什么和你的
狗、朋友或独自散步能激发创造性思维的原因。)”可知,此处是指散步带来的身体运动是激发创造力的关
键。C项:The movement during walking is obviously key.(走路时的动作显然是关键。)符合语境。故选C。
3.根据上文“You can walk through a tree-filled neighborhood.(你可以穿过绿树成荫的社区。)”和下文
“Even when you walk down a busy street, you can’t help but get distracted by the sweet smells from a food cart or
the child pointing to a building you haven’t even noticed before.(即使当你走在繁忙的街道上,你也会忍不住被
食品车散发出的甜味或孩子指着一栋你以前从未注意到的建筑分散注意力。)”可知,空处和上下文一起提
供了具体的户外活动选择。G项:Wandering around a park and observing people relaxing or birds singing is
also a choice.(在公园里闲逛,观察人们放松或鸟儿唱歌也是一个选择。)符合语境。故选G。
4.根据上文“Walking outside develops our ability to collect new ideas and take in new sights, sounds, smells,
and flavors. Shinrin-yoku, a common form of relaxation in Japan, suggests that being in the forest and walking
among the trees there can lower your stress levels.(在户外散步可以培养我们收集新想法的能力,也可以吸收
新的景象、声音、气味和味道。Shinrin-yoku是日本一种常见的放松方式,它建议在森林里,在树中间散
步,可以降低你的压力水平。)”和下文“Research has shown that getting close to nature around your
neighborhood or the taking a break from multimedia increased performance on a creative problem-solving task.(研
究表明,在你的社区附近接近大自然,或者从多媒体中休息一下,可以提高你在解决创造性问题时的表
现。)”可知,也不是一定要在森林里才能得到这些好处。E项:But to receive the benefits, you do not have to
live in a forest.(但是要得到这些好处,你不一定要住在森林里。)则是对上文内容的转折,指出即使不住在
森林里,也能通过其他方式获得类似的好处,符合语境。故选E。
5.根据上文“So instead of setting a fitness goal, why not set a creativity goal that starts with walking outdoors?
(所以与其设定一个健身目标,为什么不设定一个从户外散步开始的创意目标呢?)”可知,上文提到设定
一个户外步行的创造力目标。B项:Expose yourself more to your surroundings.(让自己更多地接触周围环
境。)与这一主题相符,即通过在户外步行,我们可以更多地观察和体验周围的环境,从而激发创造力,符
合语境。故选B。
(23-24高二上·新疆乌鲁木齐·期末)It is natural for us teenagers to feel upset. 1 Here I am
offering some useful suggestions.
学科网(北京)股份有限公司 学科网(北京)股份有限公司•Move your body.
2 Have you ever noticed that you feel happier and have a sense of achievement after a good workout?
That’s because working out creates endorphins — body chemicals that make us feel happy. No matter how low you
are feeling, your mood will get a well-deserved boost (改善) after a workout. Exercise also helps you keep your heart
in shape, makes you stronger and helps you stay at a healthy weight. And exercise is totally fun — and it’s great for
your self-esteem, too.
•Talk about it.
3 Friends’ ears can be a great source of support since you’re all in the same boat. And don’t forget
your mom — she was once a teenager as well and may understand more than you realize. Even talking to your pet
can help — just saying things out loud can help you see things differently and calm you down.
•Laugh a lot.
Humour can rescue you from an upset moment or make you feel better when you’re in an unpleasant mood.
No matter what’s going on, the ability to laugh at yourself and your situation is really important. 4 It’s
true! Using your smile muscles tells your brain to make more endorphins and that boosts your mood.
•Cry — it’s okay!
Sometimes the only way to get out of your feelings is to cry — so go ahead! Shut yourself in your room and
cry your eyes out! No one says you have to be happy all the time. 5
A.Why not pack up your suitcase and take a trip?
B.We can’t say enough good things about exercise.
C.But still we should find ways to manage our feelings.
D.So smile at whatever is happening and choose to be happy.
E.And do you know just smiling can help better your mood?
F.When you are done, you’ll be ready to face the world again.
G.Don’t hold in all those feelings until you are ready to explode.
【答案】1.C 2.B 3.G 4.E 5.F

学科网(北京)股份有限公司 学科网(北京)股份有限公司2.根据段落标题“Move your body. (让身体动起来)”可知,本段建议进行运动,后文“Have you ever
noticed that you feel happier and have a sense of achievement after a good workout? (你是否留意到,足量的运动
之后,你感到更快乐并且很有成就感)”和“Exercise also helps you keep your heart in shape, makes you
stronger and helps you stay at a healthy weight. And exercise is totally fun — and it’s great for your self-esteem,
too. (运动同时也能让你的心脏保持健康,身体更为强健,体重维持正常。运动的确有意思,同时还有助于
提高自信)”主要介绍运动的种种好处,因此B项“We can’t say enough good things about exercise. (我们对运
动再怎么称赞也不为过)”符合语境,指出运动值得称赞,呼应标题,引出后文的具体介绍。故选B。
3.根据段落标题“Talk about it. (说出来)”可知,本段建议说出自己的情绪感受,后文“Friends’ ears can be
a great source of support since you’re all in the same boat. And don’t forget your mom — she was once a teenager
as well and may understand more than you realize. (向朋友倾诉会得到强大的支持,因为你们的境遇相同。别
忘了你的妈妈——她也曾经是一个十几岁的孩子,可能比你意识到的要理解得更多)”主要介绍可以倾诉情
绪的对象,因此G项“Don’t hold in all those feelings until you are ready to explode. (别把所有情绪憋在心里,
然后直接爆发)”符合语境,提醒不要压抑情绪,呼应标题,引出后文的介绍,其中的hold in和标题的Talk
about形成对比。故选G。
4.前文“No matter what’s going on, the ability to laugh at yourself and your situation is really important. (无论
发生什么事情,能笑对人生和处境是非常重要的)”说明笑的重要性,后文“It’s true! Using your smile
muscles tells your brain to make more endorphins and that boosts your mood. (这是真的!调动笑肌告诉你的大
脑产生更多的内啡肽,从而改善你的情绪)”解释微笑可以改善情绪的原理,因此E项“And do you know

(23-24高二上·浙江绍兴·期末)Body language, important language
Have you ever noticed the big difference between someone’s behavior and his words? Or have you ever failed
to control your body on certain occasions as a result of nervousness? Today let’s discuss how essential body language
can be in our daily communication.
Studies have revealed that in the process of communication, non-verbal expression has 65% to 93% more
学科网(北京)股份有限公司 学科网(北京)股份有限公司influence than actual text. 1
Emilie Suter, a senior student of EHL, believes that the significance of body language is reflected in the ability
to help people in the process of communication. 2 Body language is the best explanation of the behavior
psychology of individuals and groups.
3 Without proper body language, you may find yourself trapped in a circle where you cannot
integrate with the external environment. Therefore, you should always pay attention to how people around you use
body language to express their opinions—this allows you to accurately determine your next move.
Fidgeting (坐立不安) may mean that there is a lack of interaction between the two sides of the conversation.
4 Loich Batumba, vice president of the student council of EHL, says that he clearly remembers similar
experiences: “At the time of my first interview, my interviewer and I barely communicated eye-to-eye, so I could
clearly feel that there was a lack of interest between our conversations.”
How to establish a good personal impression is a topic that people have repeatedly discussed. 5 This
has increased the importance of physical actions for us.
A.Body language varies from culture to culture.
B.Of course, some body language is shared universally.
C.In real situations, body language matters a lot more than you think!
D.This means that “how to say” is more significant than “what to say”.
E.Turning to other directions can mean he or she does not share your opinion.
F.It helps people better understand the overall situation and thus make adjustments.
G.Interestingly, what we see is actually the most important standard for us to judge others.
【答案】1.D 2.F 3.C 4.E 5.G
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了肢体语言的重要性。
1.根据上文“Studies have revealed that in the process of communication, non-verbal expression has 65% to 93%
more influence than actual text.(研究表明,在交际过程中,非语言表达比实际文本的影响力高出65% ~
93%)”可知,本句为本段最后一句,总结上文,指出非语言表达的重要性。故D选项“这意味着‘怎么
说’比‘说什么’更重要”符合语境,故选D。
2.根据上文“Emilie Suter, a senior student of EHL, believes that the significance of body language is reflected
in the ability to help people in the process of communication.(EHL大四学生Emilie Suter认为,肢体语言的意
义体现在沟通过程中帮助他人的能力)”可知,本句承接上文,指出肢体语言对于人们沟通的帮助和重要性。
故F选项“它有助于人们更好地了解整体情况,从而做出调整”符合语境,故选F。
学科网(北京)股份有限公司 学科网(北京)股份有限公司3.根据本段内容“Without proper body language, you may find yourself trapped in a circle where you cannot
integrate with the external environment. Therefore, you should always pay attention to how people around you use
body language to express their opinions—this allows you to accurately determine your next move.(如果没有适当
的肢体语言,你可能会发现自己被困在一个无法融入外部环境的圈子里。因此,你应该经常注意你周围的
人是如何使用肢体语言来表达他们的意见的——这可以让你准确地决定你的下一步行动)”可知,本段的主
旨是强调肢体语言在日常生活中的重要性。故C选项“在实际情况中,肢体语言比你想象的重要得多!”
符合语境,故选C。
4.根据上文“Fidgeting (坐立不安) may mean that there is a lack of interaction between the two sides of the
conversation.(坐立不安可能意味着谈话双方之间缺乏互动)”以及后文“Loich Batumba, vice president of the
student council of EHL, says that he clearly remembers similar experiences: “At the time of my first interview, my

our conversations.”(EHL的学生会副主席Loich Batumba说,他清楚地记得类似的经历:“在我第一次面试
的时候,我和面试官几乎没有眼神交流,所以我可以明显感觉到我们之间的谈话缺乏兴趣。”)”可知,后
文的例子表明,没有眼神交流表明对方对谈话缺乏兴趣,故E选项“看其他方向可能意味着他或她不同意
你的观点”符合语境,故选E。
5.根据上文“How to establish a good personal impression is a topic that people have repeatedly discussed.(如何
建立良好的个人印象是人们反复讨论的话题)”以及后文“This has increased the importance of physical actions
for us.(这增加了身体活动对我们的重要性)”可知,后文提到了某事增加了身体活动对我们的重要性,故本

的是,我们所看到的实际上是我们判断别人最重要的标准”符合语境,故选G。
(23-24高二上·贵州毕节·期末)Use Body Language to Build Trust
Body language can help people see you as more trustworthy, resulting in stronger relationships at home, work
and school. Although some gestures vary across cultures, there’re certain basic body language gestures.
Keep eye contact when someone is talking. 1 So put your phone down and listen with your eyes.
Building stronger human ties makes it easier to trust people and know more about them.
Uncross your arms and legs. 2 However, that will close you off. You’re unknowingly communicating
something negative because you’ve positioned your body in a way that blocks any basis for building trust. 3
Thus, you’ll look more open to hearing others’ thoughts.
4 Sitting behind a desk creates another obstacle that could make the person you’re talking to put his
or her own walls up. According to Professor Carla Chamberlin-Quinlisk, sitting at a table with her students encourages
学科网(北京)股份有限公司 学科网(北京)股份有限公司them to be more vocal during class. So try the smart way to get your boss to trust you.
Limit your own note taking. Sometimes notes are necessary when you’re talking to a coworker, but make sure
all that doesn’t get in the way of your eye contact. If you’re constantly writing down what the other person says, that
person could start feeling self-conscious. What’s more, taking notes makes the other person feel uncomfortable. 5
A.Don’t sit behind a desk.
B.Make sure your body looks open.
C.Nod and smile while someone is talking.
D.You might only be crossing your arms and legs because you’re cold.
E.It will help build trust because it shows real interest.
F.And they may question like “Why are they writing that down?”
G.Unfortunately, most people have no training on how to read body language.
【答案】1.E 2.D 3.B 4.A 5.F
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章作者就如何用肢体语言建立信任这一问题给出了一些建议。
1.上文“Keep eye contact when someone is talking.(当别人说话时,保持眼神交流。)”指出当别人说话时要
保持眼神交流;E选项“It will help build trust because it shows real interest.(这将有助于建立信任,因为它显
示了真正的兴趣。)”承接上文,阐述了保持眼神交流有助于建立信任的原因,与下文“So put your phone
down and listen with your eyes.(所以放下你的手机,用你的眼睛倾听。)”构成因果关系,符合语境。故选
E。
2.由段首句“Uncross your arms and legs.(不要交叉双臂和双腿。)”可知本段主要阐述不要交叉双臂和双腿;
D选项“You might only be crossing your arms and legs because you’re cold.(你可能只是因为冷而交叉双臂和
双腿。)”指出你交叉双臂和双腿可能只是因为冷;下文“However, that will close you off. You’re unknowingly
communicating something negative because you’ve positioned your body in a way that blocks any basis for
building trust.(然而,这将会使你与别人隔离。你在不知不觉中传达了一些消极的东西,因为你的身体已经
挡住了建立信任的任何基础。)”承接D选项,指出即使因为冷而交叉双腿或者双臂,但也会使你与别人隔
离,会影响你与别人建立信任;由此可知,D选项符合语境。故选D。
3.根据段首句“Uncross your arms and legs.(不要交叉双臂和双腿。)”以及下文“Thus, you’ll look more open
to hearing others’ thoughts.(因此,你会更愿意听取别人的想法。)”可知和别人交流时不要交叉双臂和双腿,
应该保持身体是放开的,让人感觉你是乐于倾听别人的想法;B选项“Make sure your body looks open.(确
保你的身体看起来是放开的。)”符合语境,选项中的“open”与下文中的“open”相对应。故选B。
4.文章结构分析可知,设空处为主旨句;由下文“Sitting behind a desk creates another obstacle that could
学科网(北京)股份有限公司 学科网(北京)股份有限公司make the person you’re talking to put his or her own walls up.(在桌子后面会造成另一个障碍,可能会让与你交
谈的人筑起自己的墙)”可知,本段主要阐述和别人交流时不要坐在桌子后面;A选项“Don’t sit behind a
desk.(不要坐在桌子后面。)”符合本段主旨,能够引领下文,适合作为主旨句。故选A。
5.由上文“If you’re constantly writing down what the other person says, that person could start feeling self-
conscious. What’s more, taking notes makes the other person feel uncomfortable.(如果你不停地写下别人说的话,
那个人可能会开始感到不自在。更重要的是,记笔记会让对方感到不舒服。)”可知,你不停地记下别人所
说的话会让对方感到不舒服;F选项“And they may question like “Why are they writing that down?”(他们可
能会问:‘他们为什么要写下来?’)”承接上文,继续阐述你一直记笔记会给对方带来的影响。故选F。
(23-24高二上·山东日照·期末)With food costs rising, many people are considering starting a garden. This
makes sense. Humans have been growing their own food for centuries. And gardening is truly helpful. It improves
the look of your home. 1 Besides, it can save money.
At first thought, this might seem like an obvious win: Once you get a tomato plant going, for example, you get
free tomatoes without having to always buy them. 2 And not all that you plant are the same in terms of
cost-effectiveness. Can you really save money by growing your own food? The answer is yes, but you should carefully
think about it.
Firstly, do some math. 3 The money goes towards water, tools, and so on. According to a study, in
America, most home gardens require just about $70 in the beginning. And you can expect a yearly return of about
$600. Those are good numbers. But keep in mind that there are continual costs after your plants are planted. 4
Besides, during their growth, some of your plants will die off due to weather, animals, etc. These can affect your
garden’s return to you.
5 Some plants are more cost effective than others. But there’s no point in planting a high-return plant if
you won’t eat it. When you’re planning your garden, choose fruits and vegetables you enjoy and will actually eat.
After all, to save money through gardening, you’ll need to eat what it produces.
A.Slowly, the costs will rise.
B.It provides delicious foods.
C.But gardens have hidden costs.
D.In this way, your tomatoes can be tastier.
E.Another consideration is what you plant.
F.The starting point is your cost in the beginning.
G.G For example, you’ll buy something to keep the plants growing.
学科网(北京)股份有限公司 学科网(北京)股份有限公司【答案】1.B 2.C 3.F 4.G 5.E
【导语】这是一篇说明文。随着食品价格的上涨,许多人都在考虑种一个菜园,文章对如何规划自己的菜
园进行了介绍。
1.根据前文“And gardening is truly helpful. It improves the look of your home.(园艺真的很有帮助。它改善了
你的家的外观。)”和后文“Besides, it can save money.(此外,它可以省钱。)”可知,此处是讲园艺的好处,
所以选项B“它提供美味的食物。”切合文意。故选B。
2.根据后文“And not all that you plant are the same in terms of cost-effectiveness. Can you really save money
by growing your own food? The answer is yes, but you should carefully think about it.(在成本效益方面,并不是
所有的植物都是一样的。自己种菜真的能省钱吗?答案是肯定的,但你应该仔细考虑一下。)”可知,此处
是指园艺有隐藏的成本,所以选项C“但花园有隐性成本。”切合文意。故选C。
3.根据后文“The money goes towards water, tools, and so on. According to a study, in America, most home
gardens require just about $70 in the beginning.(这些钱用于购买水、工具等。根据一项研究,在美国,大多
数家庭花园一开始只需要大约70美元。)”可知,此处是指计算一开始的成本,所以选项F“起点是一开始的
成本。”切合文意。故选F。
4.根据前文“But keep in mind that there are continual costs after your plants are planted.(但请记住,在你的植
物种植后,会有持续的成本。)”和后文“Besides, during their growth, some of your plants will die off due to
weather, animals, etc.(此外,在它们的生长过程中,你的一些植物会因为天气、动物等而死亡。)”可知,此
处是对后续成本进行举例,所以选项G“例如,你会买一些东西来保持植物生长。”切合文意。故选G。
5.根据后文“Some plants are more cost effective than others. But there’s no point in planting a high-return plant
if you won’t eat it. When you’re planning your garden, choose fruits and vegetables you enjoy and will actually eat.
(有些植物比其他植物更具成本效益。但如果你不吃,种植高回报的植物就没有意义了。当你在规划你的花
园时,选择你喜欢并且会吃的水果和蔬菜。)”可知,此处是讲选择种什么植物,所以选项E“另一个要考虑
的是你种植什么。”切合文意。故选E。
(23-24高二上·湖北武汉·期末)When faced with change, most people go down one of two roads: They either
respond or react. 1 Reacting, on the other hand, literally means to meet one action with another. It’s instant.
Responding creates more space between an event and what you do about it. In that space, you give immediate
emotions room to breathe and you gain a better understanding of what is happening. Consequently, you rarely regret
responding. 2
There is plenty you can do internally to cultivate responsiveness. For instance, “affect labeling”, or naming your
学科网(北京)股份有限公司 学科网(北京)股份有限公司emotions, helps create space between you and a difficult situation. Meditation (冥想) is also beneficial. 3
You can do all the affect labeling and meditation in the world. Yet if you regularly inhabit reactive environments, it’s
hard not to become more reactive.
4 When I spend too much time on social media, I’m more likely to roar at my children, feel restless,
and my competence in thinking deeply worsens significantly. Yet I’m becoming increasingly concerned that it’s not
just me, but our entire culture that is making us more reactive at a time when we need our humanity more than ever.
5 But distinctly naming the problem is an important first step. We can also reduce reactivity by
intentionally creating more responsive environments. We can read print books instead of digital versions. We can go
to the gym or take walks without phones. If we desire to navigate our challenging times, we must find ways to
preserve the space between stimulus (刺激) and response, which is to say we must find ways to preserve our
humanity.
A.But the external matters too.
B.But you often regret reacting.
C.I’ve experienced this firsthand.
D.There are no silver bullet solutions.
E.I have figured out how to deal with this.
F.On the one hand, reacting is crucial for our humanity.
G.Responding, related to responsibility, is considerate.
【答案】1.G 2.B 3.A 4.C 5.D
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要解释了面对改变,反应和回应两种选择的定义以及各自的影响。
1.根据上文“When faced with change, most people go down one of two roads: They either respond or react.(面
对变化,大多数人会选择两条路中的一条:要么回应,要么反应)”以及后文“Reacting, on the other hand,
literally means to meet one action with another.(另一方面,反应的字面意思是用一个动作来应对另一个动作)”
可知,后文提到了反应的定义,那么本句是在说明面对变化,选择回应。故G选项“回应,与责任有关,
是体贴的”符合语境,故选G。
2.根据上文“Reacting, on the other hand, literally means to meet one action with another. It’s instant.
Responding creates more space between an event and what you do about it. In that space, you give immediate
emotions room to breathe and you gain a better understanding of what is happening. Consequently, you rarely
regret responding.(另一方面,反应的字面意思是用一个动作来应对另一个动作。这是即时的。回应在事件
和你所做的事情之间创造了更多的空间。在这个空间里,你给了即时情绪呼吸的空间,你对正在发生的事
学科网(北京)股份有限公司 学科网(北京)股份有限公司情有了更好的理解。因此,你很少后悔回应)”可知,上文提到了回应和反应,且提到很少后悔回应,推测
本句是在说明会后悔反应。故B选项“但是你经常后悔反应”符合语境,故选B。
3.根据后文“You can do all the affect labeling and meditation in the world. Yet if you regularly inhabit reactive
environments, it’s hard not to become more reactive.(你可以做世界上所有的影响标签和冥想。然而,如果你经
常生活在反应性的环境中,就很难不变得更加反应性)”可知,后文提到经常生活在反应性的环境中,就很
难不变得更加反应性,说明了外部因素的重要性。故A选项“但外部因素也很重要”符合语境,故选A。
4.根据本段内容“When I spend too much time on social media, I’m more likely to roar at my children, feel
restless, and my competence in thinking deeply worsens significantly. Yet I’m becoming increasingly concerned
that it’s not just me, but our entire culture that is making us more reactive at a time when we need our humanity
more than ever.(当我花太多时间在社交媒体上时,我更有可能对我的孩子大吼大叫,感到不安,我的思考
能力也会显著下降。然而,我越来越担心,在我们比以往任何时候都更需要人性的时候,不仅仅是我,而
是我们的整个文化,让我们变得更加被动)”可知,本段主要叙述了作者关于反应的亲身经历。故C选项
“我有过亲身经历”符合语境,故选C。
5.根据后文“But distinctly naming the problem is an important first step. We can also reduce reactivity by
intentionally creating more responsive environments. We can read print books instead of digital versions. We can
go to the gym or take walks without phones. If we desire to navigate our challenging times, we must find ways to
preserve the space between stimulus (刺激) and response, which is to say we must find ways to preserve our
humanity.(但明确指出问题所在是重要的第一步。我们也可以通过有意识地创造更敏感的环境来减少反应性。
我们可以读纸质书而不是电子版。我们可以不带手机去健身房或散步。如果我们想在这个充满挑战的时代
中生存下去,我们就必须设法保持刺激和反应之间的空间,也就是说,我们必须设法保持我们的人性)”可
知,后文主要说明了应对反应的方法,且强调了步骤,故本句总起全段,指出没有可以应对这个问题的灵
丹妙药。故D选项“没有灵丹妙药”符合语境,故选D。
(23-24 高二上·浙江嘉兴·期末)As humans, we’re meant to be social creatures. In fact, being socially
connected is key to our mental and emotional health. 1 This can cause us to cut ourselves off from others
and gradually become lonely. Social situations can seem frightening, but the truth is never quite so black-and-white.
People aren’t thinking about you—at least not to the degree that you think. 2 Just like you’re thinking
about yourself, other people are thinking about themselves. They’re not spending their free time judging you, so stop
wasting time worrying about what others think of you.
学科网(北京)股份有限公司 学科网(北京)股份有限公司3 When you’re socially anxious, it can seem as though everyone else is fully confident. But that’s not
the case. There are still many shy people out there struggling with the same self-doubts as you are. The next person
you speak to is just as likely to be worried about what you think of them!
You don’t have to be perfect to be liked. In fact, our imperfections can be pleasant. 4 If you can
cheerfully accept your awkwardness and imperfections, you’ll likely find that others will, too. They may even like
you better for it!
It’s okay to make mistakes. Everyone makes mistakes; it’s part of being human. 5 Your value doesn’t
come from being perfect. If you find self-forgiveness difficult, try to look at your own mistakes as you would those
of a friend.
Overcoming social fear requires practice. Don’t expect to become socially comfortable without putting in the
time. That said, you can start small. Take baby steps towards being more confident and social, and then build on those
successes.
A.So give yourself a break when you mess up.
B.Most people are caught up in their own lives.
C.The good news is that you can learn from them.
D.People are much more confident than you think.
E.Even our weaknesses can bring us closer to others.
F.Many other people feel just as awkward and nervous as you do.
G.Yet many of us are shy and feel awkward around unfamiliar people.
【答案】1.G 2.B 3.F 4.E 5.A
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了几种克服社交焦虑,建立正确社交的方法。
1.上文“In fact, being socially connected is key to our mental and emotional health.(事实上,与社会保持联系
是我们心理和情感健康的关键)”说明与社会保持联系很重要,下文“This can cause us to cut ourselves off
from others and gradually become lonely.(这会导致我们与他人隔绝,并逐渐变得孤独)”阐述了另外一种结果,
G项“然而,我们中的许多人都很害羞,在陌生的人面前感到尴尬”与上文是转折关系,且指出下文中
this指代的内容,符合题意。故选G项。
2.下文“Just like you’re thinking about yourself, other people are thinking about themselves.(就像你在思考自
己,其他人也在思考自己)”说明每个人都在想自己的事,B项“大多数人都沉浸在自己的生活中”与下文
紧密衔接,符合语境。故选B项。
3.下文“When you’re socially anxious, it can seem as though everyone else is fully confident. But that’s not the
学科网(北京)股份有限公司 学科网(北京)股份有限公司case. There are still many shy people out there struggling with the same self-doubts as you are.(当你对社交感到焦
虑时,似乎其他人都很自信。但事实并非如此。仍然有很多害羞的人和你一样在与自我怀疑作斗争)”说明
大家都跟你一样对社交感到焦虑,F项“许多其他人和你一样感到尴尬和紧张”与下文紧密衔接,符合语
境。故选F项。
4.上文“You don’t have to be perfect to be liked. In fact, our imperfections can be pleasant. (你不一定要完美才
能被人喜欢。事实上,我们的不完美是令人愉快的)”指出正是我们的不完美令人感到愉快,E项“即使是
我们的弱点也能拉近我们与他人的距离”与上文紧密衔接,our weaknesses对应上文中our imperfections,
符合语境。故选E项。
5.上文“It’s okay to make mistakes. Everyone makes mistakes; it’s part of being human.(犯错误是可以的。每
个人都会犯错;这是做人的一部分)”说明每个人都会犯错,犯错误是可以被接受的,A项“所以,当你陷
入困境时,让自己休息一下”对你犯错误时提供了解决方案,与上文紧密衔接,符合语境。故选A项。
(23-24高二上·内蒙古·期末)Increasing your reading speed is a journey that combines technique, practice,
and a patient mindset. By following these strategies, you’ll improve your reading speed.
Active reading
Active reading involves engaging with the material rather than passively absorbing words. Techniques such as
underlining key phrases, quickly taking down notes in the margin (页边空白) and asking questions about the content
can significantly enhance your reading speed. 1 .
Expand your peripheral vision (周边视觉)
A substantial portion of reading involves the movement of your eyes across lines of text. By expanding your
peripheral vision, you can take in more words with each glance. Practice widening your focus to capture groups of
words rather than focusing on one word at a time. 2 .
Get rid of subvocalisation (默读)
Subvocalisation, or the habit of pronouncing each word in your head as you read, can be a major obstruction to
reading speed. Subvocalisation is a natural part of early reading development. 3 . Train your mind to get
rid of this inner voice by consciously focusing on visualising concepts and ideas rather than saying each word
internally. This change can lead to a fast reading experience.
4
Like any skill, increasing your reading speed requires consistent practice. Mix up your reading materials to
expose yourself to various writing styles and subjects. Whether it’s fiction, non-fiction, academic articles or industry
reports, diversifying your reading content enhances your adaptability and speed in processing different types of
学科网(北京)股份有限公司 学科网(北京)股份有限公司information.
5 . Gradually increase the complexity and length of the material, challenging your brain to read faster
while maintaining comprehension. This intentional and varied practice is key to training your newfound speed-
reading skills.
A.Practice regularly
B.Efficient reading
C.However, it can delay progress as you strive to read faster
D.Set aside dedicated time each day for focused reading practice
E.These actions force your brain to get information more efficiently
F.This adjustment can lead to a significant increase in reading speed
G.This allows your brain to process information without the inner voice
【答案】1.E 2.F 3.C 4.A 5.D
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一些提高阅读速度的方法。
1.根据上文“Active reading involves engaging with the material rather than passively absorbing words.
Techniques such as underlining key phrases, quickly taking down notes in the margin (页边空白) and asking
questions about the content can significantly enhance your reading speed.(主动阅读包括与材料接触,而不是被
动地吸收单词。在关键短语下面画线、在页边空白处快速做笔记、对内容提出问题等技巧可以显著提高你

2.根据上文“A substantial portion of reading involves the movement of your eyes across lines of text. By
expanding your peripheral vision, you can take in more words with each glance. Practice widening your focus to
capture groups of words rather than focusing on one word at a time.(阅读的很大一部分涉及到你的眼睛在文本
行的运动。通过扩大你的周边视野,你每看一眼就能吸收更多的单词。练习扩大你的注意力,抓住一组单
词,而不是一次只关注一个单词)”可知,上文建议练习扩大注意力,不要一次只关注一个单词,本句为本
段最后一句,故说明这一方法的作用是为了提高阅读速度。故F选项“这种调整可以显著提高阅读速度”
符合语境,故选F。
3.根据上文“Subvocalisation, or the habit of pronouncing each word in your head as you read, can be a major
obstruction to reading speed. Subvocalisation is a natural part of early reading development.(默读,即阅读时在脑
海中读出每个单词的习惯,可能是影响阅读速度的主要障碍。默读是早期阅读发展的自然组成部分)”以及
后文“Train your mind to get rid of this inner voice by consciously focusing on visualising concepts and ideas
学科网(北京)股份有限公司 学科网(北京)股份有限公司rather than saying each word internally. This change can lead to a fast reading experience.(通过有意识地专注于想
象概念和想法,而不是在心里说出每个词,训练你的大脑摆脱这种内心的声音。这种改变可以带来快速的
阅读体验)”可知,上文提到了默读的行为,后文指出要改变默读的行为才能提高阅读速度,可知本句与上
文构成转折,指出默读不利于加快阅读速度。故C选项“然而,当你努力读得更快时,它会延迟你的进
步”符合语境,故选C。
4.根据本段内容“Like any skill, increasing your reading speed requires consistent practice. Mix up your reading
materials to expose yourself to various writing styles and subjects. Whether it’s fiction, non-fiction, academic
articles or industry reports, diversifying your reading content enhances your adaptability and speed in processing

(23-24高二上·安徽·期末)Overcoming Fear of Failure
Have you ever been so afraid of failing at something that you decided not to try at all? Or has fear of failure
meant that, subconsciously, you undermined (削弱) your own efforts to avoid the possibility of a larger failure? 1
It’s important to realize that in everything we do, there’s always a chance that we’ll fail. Facing that chance and
embracing it give us a more rewarding life. Here are a few ways to reduce the fear of failing.
Analyze all potential outcomes. 2 Remove that fear by considering all of the potential outcomes of your
decision. You can map possible outcomes visually.
Set small goals. Imagining how life will be after you’ve reached your goal is a great motivator to keep you
moving forward. So start by setting a few small goals. 3 Don’t focus on the end picture. Just focus on the next
step. Taking one small step at a time will help build your confidence, keep you moving towards your final goal.
Learn to think more positively. Every coin has two sides. 4 Learn to change your thoughts and focus
more on the bright side of the situation, making you like yourself. Positive thinking is an incredibly powerful way to
build self-confidence.
学科网(北京)股份有限公司 学科网(北京)股份有限公司5 In some cases, the toughest situation may be genuinely disastrous (灾难性的) and it may be
perfectly reasonable to fear failure. In other cases, however, this worst case may actually not be that bad, and
recognizing this can help.
A.Look at the worse-case situation.
B.It is up to you to decide which one to look at.
C.Failing at something can help you discover your truest friends.
D.Many of us have probably experienced this at one time or another.
E.If you are afraid of failure, you might be uncomfortable setting goals.
F.These should be goals that are slightly, but not overwhelmingly, challenging.

(23-24高二上·四川南充·期末)Tips on Learning Math
While you are sitting in a math class listening to your teacher multiplying (乘以) and adding endless numbers,
math can become boring and uninteresting quickly. 1 . Here are some tips that can help you.
Learn math tricks. There are many tricks in math that save you enormous time. For example, adding up all the
numbers from 1 to 100 is a lot of work. But, check out this easy way to do it: 100+1=101 and 99+2=101, right? So
does 98+3, 97+4, 96+5, etc. So, if you multiply 101 by the number of these pairs, you’ll get the sum of all the numbers
from 1 to 100, which is 5050. 2 .
Make math easy. Math can be difficult to learn because students are often taught to learn math by memorizing
formulas (公式). However, by learning math this way, students aren’t taught the principles and concepts. But the
principles and concepts are needed to understand why a particular formula is being used. 3 . You can ask
your teacher why and how a particular formula works, while others do not.
4 . For example, if you’re interested in historical landmarks, learn about the math involved in building
these landmarks.
Connect math to everyday life. 5 . For example, if you have an alarm clock, chances are that you will
figure out how many extra minutes you can sleep before you get out of bed once you hit the snooze button (贪睡按
钮). Try to notice the different ways you do math in your day-to-day tasks.
A.They are often interesting, too
B.So make math easier by learning them
C.Make math fun by using it in the real world
D.Try solving some math competition problems
E.Explore how math is related to something that you love
F.By doing so, you can find a way out of doing extra work
G.However, you can beat the boredom by making math meaningful to you
【答案】1.G 2.F 3.B 4.E 5.C
【导语】本文为一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一些让学习数学有趣的方法。
1.根据空前“While you are sitting in a math class listening to your teacher multiplying (乘以) and adding

互为转折关系,引出空后,故选G项。
2.根据空前“So, if you multiply 101 by the number of these pairs, you’ll get the sum of all the numbers from 1
to 100, which is 5050.(因此,如果你用101乘以这些对的数量,你会得到从1到100的所有数字的总和,即
5050。)”可知,此空介绍这样做的好处。故F项“通过这样做,你可以找到一种做额外工作的方法。”符
合语境,F项中的so指代空前“you multiply 101 by the number of these pairs, you’ll get the sum of all the
numbers from 1 to 100, which is 5050”这一方法,故选F项。
3.根据空前“However, by learning math this way, students aren’t taught the principles and concepts. But the
principles and concepts are needed to understand why a particular formula is being used.(然而,通过这种方式学
习数学,学生没有学到原理和概念。但是要理解为什么要使用一个特定的公式,需要原则和概念。)”可知,
下文应介绍如何学习数学,故B项“因此,通过学习数学来简化数学”符合语境,故选B项。
4.根据空后“For example, if you’re interested in historical landmarks, learn about the math involved in building

(23-24高二上·江苏徐州·期末)There are a lot of chemicals that can cause indoor air pollution. A recent
project conducted has found over 900 different substances in our home are related to it. Many researchers have
already examined the causes of indoor air pollution. 1
It has been proved that different kinds of chemicals can be released by building materials and new furniture.
Everything from painting and decorating products, bathroom cleaners and beauty products can contain these chemicals.
2 For instance, cooking generates a lot of harmful emissions, like frying meat in oil.
As a research from Denmark has highlighted, cooking, particularly roasting can damage our body. Roast dinners
contain many potentially harmful pollutants. 3 When exposed to cooking emissions, people actually had
DNA damage. It can be associated with cell repair processes that trigger cancer—causing genetic changes. 4
And what can we do with it?
As far as cooking emissions are concerned, no one is suggesting switching to takeaways. 5 For
example, cooking meat at high temperatures with lots of fat produces more harmful emissions than boiling pasta.
Besides, opening windows and using cooker hoods are preferable so that we can enjoy the roasted meat without those
undesirable effects.
A.In the long run, these changes lead to cancer.
B.They might also arise from cooking at home.
C.A wide range of sources are under investigation.
D.Therefore, what results from indoor air pollution?
学科网(北京)股份有限公司 学科网(北京)股份有限公司E.However, most of us have ignored their bad effects.

(23-24高二上·江苏南京·期末)As the autumn colors fade over time, cold days are well underway. The Start
of Winter or “Lidong” (立冬), the 19th solar term (节气) in China, begins this year on Nov. 7 and ends on Nov. 21.
1 For the northern hemisphere, biting winds blow from the north, crops harvested in autumn have
学科网(北京)股份有限公司 学科网(北京)股份有限公司been stored up, and creatures begin to rest and hibernate (冬眠) for the coming winter.
Three phases (阶段) of Lidong
2 In the first phase of Lidong, water begins to freeze. Ice often encrusts lakes in just one night in
northern China, which reminds people of the coming cold winter. The second phase of Lidong brings frozen ground.
The thin ice is easily broken if stepped on. The ice covers and protects crops and farmlands from pests and
discases. 3 As migratory birds move south and resident birds store their food in the nest, the sky often
seems lonely without its winged friends.
Traditional customs
On the day of Lidong, people would treat themselves with feasts, as a reward for their hard work during the busy
months. Some brave swimming enthusiasts take a dive in cold rivers to celebrate the Beginning of Winter, and of
course, to exercise their bodies.
4 For people in southern China, high-caloric food such as beef, chicken, mutton, and fish is their
favorites during the days of Lidong, and can provide enough energy and fat to help them see the winter out.
Turn of the year
Though for the northern hemisphere, the days are getting colder and nights longer, the year will soon pass by.

A.Lidong is divided into three phases.
B.Birds are rarely seen in the third phase.
C.First things first.
D.As a matter of fact, Lidong is the beginning of the end.
