提取能力。一般包括直接信息题、直接理解题、间接信息题、数字计算题、排列顺序题、
图表图画题等。它要求考生能够读懂文章中的具体细节内容，如事件发生的时间、地点、
人物、原因、过程、结果等诸多细节信息。这种题型在阅读理解部分占比较大，是获取高
分的基础。
2. 细节理解题的文章体裁多样，包括记叙文、说明文、议论文等。文章内容涉及广泛，如人
物传记、科技知识、文化教育、社会现象等诸多领域。
设题类型
1. 直接信息题：直接询问文章中明确提到的具体信息，如 “What time did the train
leave?”“Who is the author of the book mentioned in the text?” 这些问题的答案可以直接在原
文中找到对应的语句。
2. 间接信息题：这类题目需要考生对原文中的信息进行简单的转换或者推理。例如，问题可
能是根据文中所描述的人物的行为来推断其态度，或者根据事件发生的先后顺序来推断某
个事件的原因。提问方式可能是 “Why did the character make such a decision?”“What can be
inferred about the situation from the description?”
3. 数字计算题：通常涉及文章中的数字信息，如时间、价格、数量等，要求考生进行简单的
计算。例如，“If the original price of a product is $100 and it's on a 20% discount, how much
does it cost now?”
4. 排序题：要求考生根据文章内容对事件、步骤等进行排序。比如，“Which of the following
is the correct order of the process described in the text?”
解题思路
1. 定位信息：首先，根据题目中的关键词（如人名、地名、时间、事件等），快速在文章中
定位相关段落或者语句。例如，如果题目问的是关于某个科学家的研究成果，就快速找到
文中提及该科学家的部分。
2. 仔细阅读：定位到信息后，仔细阅读该部分内容，理解细节信息的含义。注意理解上下文
语境，有时候一个单词或者短语的意思需要结合上下文才能准确把握。
3. 对比选项：将选项与原文内容进行逐一对比。对于直接信息题，看选项是否与原文表述一
致；对于间接信息题，判断选项是否是对原文信息合理的转换或推理；对于数字计算题，
检查计算过程是否正确；对于排序题，核对选项中的顺序是否与原文描述相符。排除与原

With the availability of easy-to-use at-home kits, DNA testing for dogs has become increasingly popular
among dog owners in recent years. It can provide invaluable insights into a dog’s breed, health risks, and even
behaviors.
DNA testing typically works by analyzing the genetic material found in a sample of cells taken from the
inside of your dog’s cheek. This sample is then compared to a database of known breeds and genetic markers
associated with certain traits or health conditions.
The first step in obtaining a DNA test kit is selecting which type you want. Most companies offer severaldifferent types of tests that vary in cost and complexity. For instance, some tests just analyze your dog’s breed
composition, while others can assess additional genetic markers associated with certain diseases or behaviors.
Then it’s time to collect your dog’s sample using the provided swab (拭子) kit or saliva-collection tube
included with most kits. The swab should be gently rubbed inside your pet’s cheek according to the kit’s directions
before being placed into the collection container provided by the company. After collecting the sample, it should
be mailed back to the laboratory for processing according to instructions given by the company providing the
service. Once received by the lab, it typically takes 1-2 weeks for results to be processed and sent back via email
or mail. Results will vary depending on which type of test was purchased, but they generally include detailed
information about your pet’s breed composition as well as any potential health risks or behavioral traits associated
with their
genetics that could affect their overall well-being and quality of life.
If you’re looking for an easy way to learn more about your pup’s background without spending too much
money, then DNA testing might just be right up your alley.

“I am not crazy,” says Dr. William Farber, shortly after performing acupuncture (针灸) on a rabbit. “I am
ahead of my time.” If he seems a little defensive, it might be because even some of his coworkers occasionally
laugh at his unusual methods. But Farber is certain he’ll have the last laugh. He’s one of a small but growing

“I didn’t like the ending,” I said to my favorite college professor. It was my junior year of undergraduate, and
I was doing an independent study on Victorian literature. I had just finished reading The Mill on the Floss by
George Eliot, and I was heartbroken with the ending. Prof. Gracie, with all his patience, asked me to think about it
beyond whether I liked it or not. He suggested I think about the difference between endings that I wanted for the
characters and endings that were right for the characters, endings that satisfied the story even if they didn’t have a
traditionally positive outcome. Of course, I would have preferred a different ending for Tom and Maggie Tulliver,but the ending they got did make the most sense for them.

Well, there’s a kiosk (小亭) for that. In the San Francisco Bay Area, at least.
“You enter the fare gates (检票口) and you’ll see a kiosk that is lit up and it tells you can get a one-minute, a
three-minute, or a five-minute story,” says Alicia Trost, the chief communications officer for the San Francisco
Bay Area Rapid Transit — known as BART. “You choose which length you want and it gives you a receipt-like
short story.”
It’s that simple. Riders have printed nearly 20,000 short stories and poems since the program was launched

（24-25高三上·江苏扬州·期中）Flowers, ocean waves, animals, totem (图腾): Sitting in his northeast
Beijing studio, Cai Honghao hammers on a piece of cow leather, bringing to life a new design. Cai, 41, is one of
China’s few leather crafters.
He began crafting leather six years ago when he was the creative director of an advertising company. Fed
up with the stress of his job, Cai declined to renew his contract last year. He is now devoted to leather crafting.
“It’s great fun as I try new designs and make it more challenging.”
Each work undergoes many stages, from drawing pictures on paper to coloring the crafted leather. He does
it all himself, but sometimes his wife helps. The back of the leather should be pasted on paper to prevent changing
the shape, and then covered with tape to seal it during coloring. Cai also sprays water on the surface to make the
leather easier to work. His 70-square-meter studio is filled with leather and tools. Pens are used to carve the
outline of the pattern, while different machines create the shallow holes on the leather. The patterns become vivid
under Cai’s hammers and shaping tools. For a bag or belt, he also sews pieces of leather together, and a work can
take a week to several months, with the prices up to tens of thousands of yuan.
“It is an extremely complicated and time-consuming process,” he says. His shoulders can ache after bending
over his worktop day and night. “But I enjoy it, and my family are keen on my art. Otherwise, they would not let
me do this fulltime.” Cai hopes to realize the beauty of ancient Chinese paintings that are full of Chinese flavor.
“Now my dream is realized,” he says. His next project is an exhibition of his work.
4．Why did Cai Honghao leave his job last year?
A．He was forced by his contract. B．He was fond of advertising.
C．He was tired of the pressure. D．He was blamed by the director.
5．What does Paragraph 3 mainly tell us?
A．The effectiveness of Cai’s skills. B．The efficiency of Cai’s machines.
C．The complexity of leather crafting. D．The diversity of rare leather works.
6．What can best describe his commitment to the shoulder-aching job?
A．Do not put off until tomorrow what you love to do at this moment.
B．Do what you love, and you’ll never have to work a day in your life.
C．Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise.
D．If you don’t like something, change it. If you can’t, change your attitude.
7．What is his family members’ attitude?
A．Favorable. B．Doubtful. C．Indifferent. D．Unclear.C
（24-25高三上·安徽·期中）Google is considering charging for artificial intelligence (AI)-powered search
in what would be the biggest change of its business model since it was founded. The large search company, which
is owned by Alphabet, has never before put any of its key products behind a paywall. However, bosses are
considering charging for new advanced search features powered by AI.
The company is dealing with how to make use of the AI technology without threatening its advertising-
funded business model. There are fears that the invention of AI chatbots (聊天机器人) will weaken search engines
such as Google by allowing people to ask for the information they require rather than searching for it. This would
rob (掠夺) Google of the valuable data it collects from users.
Its leaders are now reportedly weighing up whether to put AI-powered search features behind a paywall in a
way that would allow it to take advantage of the new technology without competing with its core search engine.
Alphabet is looking at putting AI-powered search into its advanced subscription services.
Engineers are reportedly developing the functionality needed for the changes but the leaders have not made
a decision on whether or when to begin the plan. Under the plans being considered, Google’s search engine would
remain free. A spokesman of Alphabet said: “We’re not working on or considering an ad-free search experience.
We’ll go on building new capabilities and services to enhance our subscription offerings across Google.” The
spokesman added: “For years, we’ve been reinventing Search to help people access information in the way that’s
most natural to them. With our generative AI experiments in Search, we’ve already served billions of queries (询
问). We will keep rapidly improving the product to serve new user needs.”
Last year, Google’s income from search and advertising made up more than half of its total sales. The
company was caught flat-footed by the huge success of ChatGPT, which has been backed by its competitor
Microsoft. Google launched its own AI chatbot, Gemini, in response but the technology received a lot of
complaints for placing stress on diversity and harmless answers instead of accuracy. Later Google stopped the
tool’s ability to draw pictures and apologized.
8．What is Alphabet’s main concern regarding AI chatbots?
A．AI chatbots will give away users’ secrets.
B．Google will lose the chance to get users’ data.
C．Other search engines will replace Google.
D．The cost of its core product will increase.
9．What will Alphabet continue doing?
A．Making its main product accessible to everyone.
B．Sharing AI technology with other technology companies.
C．Adding AI-powered search into its subscription services.
D．Improving its services to expand its subscription offerings.
10．What is people’s attitude towards Google’s Gemini?
A．Mixed. B．Favorable. C．Critical. D．Unclear.
11．What is mainly talked about in the text?
A．The competition among technology companies.B．Google’s new search engine.
C．The importance of AI technology.
D．A change in Google’s business model.

（24-25高三上·重庆·阶段练习）The abdominal cerebrum theory (肠脑理论) is a concept that suggests
the gut (肠) has a complex network of neurons capable of independent action and decision-making, which is called
the “second brain”. This theory stresses the importance of the enteric (肠道的) nervous system (ENS), which is
responsible for controlling digestion, but recent research suggests it may play a larger role in overall health and
well-being.
The ENS consists of over 100 million neurons. These neurons communicate with each other and with the
central nervous system (CNS), allowing for both local reflexes and coordination with the CNS.
One of the most convincing aspects of the abdominal cerebrum theory is the ENS’s ability to function
autonomously. While it receives input from the CNS, it can operate independently, regulating processes such as
blood flow and gut movement. This nature demonstrates its resemblance to a “second brain”.
The gut-brain axis is a bidirectional communication network linking the ENS and the CNS. This interaction
goes beyond mere signaling; it involves neurotransmitters like serotonin(90% of which is produced in the gut) and
dopamine. These chemicals influence mood, anxiety, and even cognition, suggesting that gut health directly
impacts mental health.
Emerging research indicates that conditions like tiredness, and even depression and anxiety are linked to an
imbalance in the gut microbiota (肠道菌群). The ENS also plays a crucial role in diseases such as obesity and
diabetes.
Despite its appeal, the abdominal cerebrum theory faces several criticisms. Some argue that while the
theory acknowledges the ENS is complex, labeling it as a “second brain” may oversimplify or mislead. Others
point out that more research is needed to fully understand its precise role in various health conditions.
Moreover, translating basic research into clinical applications remains challenging. The interplay between
genetics, lifestyle factors, and environmental influences complicates efforts to develop targeted therapies based on
the theory.
12．Why is the gut often called the “second brain”?
A．Because it contains millions of neurons.B．Because it can function independently.
C．Because it controls all body functions. D．Because it impacts overall well-being.
13．Which of the following is among the functions of the ENS?
A．Controlling the operation of the CNS. B．Disturbing the performance of the CNS.
C．Regulating digestion and gut movement.D．Coordinating blood flow and muscle movement.
14．According to paragraph 4, what can be learnt about neurotransmitters?
A．They are mostly produced in the brain. B．They impact both mood and cognition.
C．They are not important for gut health. D．They only affect our physical health.
15．Why is the theory criticized?
A．Because it has no prospects of clinic applications. B．Because it denies the complexity of the ENS.C．Because it may cause misunderstanding.D．Because it hasn’t been studied so far.
