(2021·江西省部分省级示范性重点中学高三联考)
As a children’s author, I don’t just write books.I build bridges.I carefully construct
each of my stories to connect readers to the story itself, to the characters in the story,
and to other readers.My goal is to build kids’ social-emotional learning skills to help
improve healthy relationships and prevent peer cruelty.And since October is National
Bullying Prevention Month, this is the perfect time to share with you, dear book
lovers, how literature can be used as an effective tool to address hurtful behavior.
What I’m describing here is nothing new.For years,children’s literature has been
used by advisors, parents,teachers, and librarians to address tough issues kids face
in their everyday world.Researchers report that literature, with proper adult guidance
and assistance in a safe social setting, can help form viewpoints and empathy (同情)
in young readers.And let’s face it:the more empathy and compassion kids have in
their hearts, the less room there is for arrogance and contempt(蔑视)for others.
I love what Dr.Zipora Shechtman, author of Treating Child and Adolescent
Aggression Through Bibliotherapy, said in the book,“Through the imaginative
process that reading involves,children have the opportunity to do what they often
cannot do in real life—become thoroughly involved in the inner lives of others, better
understand them, and eventually become more aware of themselves.”
Because the social world of today’s children is very complex, I try to include the
wisdom and insight of young readers in my stories, so that my books go hand in hand
with their life experiences and views.
There are also many other wonderful books that generate thoughtful conversations
(my website lists my top picks—from pre-school kids to young adults, both fiction
and nonfiction).If you’re looking for ways to turn stories into teachable moments,
visit authors’ or publishers’ websites for ready-made lesson plans.With lessons inhand, you’re ready to open the hearts and minds of young readers to new perspectives
and possibilities!

(2021·绵阳市第二次诊断)
Going through social media can quickly convince you that everyone’s life is more
interesting than yours.During a particularly adventurous week on social media some
months ago,I saw water skiing in Mani, and swimming with wild pigs in the
Bahamas.Wild pigs! I started searching flights to new places online, imagining
adventures.Then I ordered food from the place I eat at every week and...felt bad
about not trying somewhere new.
Recent research about repeat and novel experiences suggests that we ought to
reconsider those negative feelings associated with repetition.Ed O’Brien, a professor
at the University of Chicago,launched a series of studies on this topic.“There’s a
general belief that if you want to seem like an interesting, cultured person, the best
thing you can do is to showcase that you’re open to new experiences ,” he
says.“That may be true, but I think we take for granted the value of really digging
deep into one field.”
To test this hypothesis (假设), O’Brien and his team exposed all participants to the
same stimulus (刺激), including museum visits,movies,and video games.Next,some
people were asked to imagine repeating the experience,while others actually did
repeat what they had done.The researchers found that on the whole, participants said
that repeating experiences was often far more enjoyable than they had predicted.
There is joy in repetition partly because every human mind wanders.Consequently, we
miss a good part of every experience.Repeating things can really be seen as another
opportunity to actually experience something fully.O’Brien’s studies show that peopleare too quick to assume that they’ve “seen all the layers” even in those cases where
they haven’t.It’s safe to assume there are more explorable layers in any
experience.When we’re noticing new things in any experience,our brain becomes
engaged.All we need to do is approach whatever task is at hand by searching for the
things that we didn’t see in it the first time around.
【语篇解读】 本文是说明文。作者通过一项研究说明重复经历会给人带来乐趣。
部分原因是每个人的思维都会走神,所以重复某些经历会发现意想不到的曾被忽
略的新事物。
5.Why does the author mention his experience in Paragraph 1 ?
A.To introduce the bad feelings linked to repetition.
B.To show novel experiences are more interesting.
C.To tell us a common belief about social media.
D.To present to us his new, imagined adventures.
答案 A [写作意图题。根据第二段首句“Recent research...with repetition.”可推
知,第一段提到作者的经历(作者因订食物未尝试新的地方而感觉不好)是为了引
出与重复经历相关的消极感受。]
6.What did O’Brien’s studies find?
A. People were open to new experiences.
B.Imagination was exciting on the whole.
C.Repeating experiences made one bored.
D.Digging deep into one field was enjoyable.
答案 D [细节理解题。根据第二段尾句和第三段尾句可知,奥布赖恩认为我们
没有重视深入一个领域的价值,而他和他的团队发现总的来说,参与者们认为重
复经历往往比他们预料的要令人愉快得多。由此可知,该研究发现深入一个领域
令人快乐。]
7.How can we keep our brain engaged?
A.By assuming we didn’t see all at first.
B.By searching for the ignored elements.
C.By approaching whatever task is at hand.
D.By keeping focused on every experience.答案 B [细节理解题。根据第四段最后两句可知,发现新事物,大脑就会变得
忙碌。而我们需要做的就是通过找寻第一次没看到的事物来处理手头上的任何任
务,故通过找寻被忽略掉的元素能够使我们的大脑忙碌。]
8.What is the best title for this passage?
A. Novel Experiences Enrich Us
B.More Layer Keep the Mind Busy
C.Repetition Makes People Happy
D.Wandering Minds Help People Explore
答案 C [标题归纳题。作者通过自己的经历引出了与重复经历相关的消极感受
然后,作者又通过一项研究说明我们应该重新对待那些消极感受,因为重复经历
能使我们发现之前被忽视的地方,并使我们感到快乐。]

【语篇解读】 本文是说明文。AirCar是最新一代飞车,能在不到3分钟的时间里
由道路交通工具变为飞行交通工具,它方便使用,用途很广。
1.that [考查定语从句。空处指代先行词flying car,在定语从句中作主语,因为
先行词被形容词最高级修饰,所以应用that引导该定语从句。]
2.journeys [考查名词的数。由“leisure and self-driving”可知,此处应用名词
复数表示泛指概念。]
3.has completed [考查时态和主谓一致。由时间状语“so far”可知谓语动词应用
现在完成时;主语为第三人称单数,故填has completed。]
4.weighs [考查时态和主谓一致。由语境可知此处在讲述这种飞车的客观情况,
故用一般现在时,主语为第三人称单数,故填weighs。]
5.Powered [考查非谓语动词。由空后的by可知,the car-plane与power之间为
逻辑上的动宾关系,故用过去分词。]
6.consumption [考查词性转换。由冠词the以及所处的主语位置可知需要填该
词的名词形式,故用consumption。]
7.reaching [考查非谓语动词。此处为with+宾语+分词结构,its speed和动词
reach之间为逻辑上的主谓关系,故用现在分词。]
8.accessible [考查词性转换。分析句子结构可知,此处需用形容词作表语,故填accessible。]
9.without [考查介词。由语境可知,乘坐空中飞车到达你的目的地便没有了乘
车到机场和过安检的麻烦,故用without。]
10.it [考查代词。根据语境可知,空处指代上文提到的“your AirCar”,应用第三
人称单数it。it“(指提到过的或正在谈论的动物或事物)它”。]
