例1(2022·全国甲卷)
As Ginni Bazlinton reached Antarctica, she found herself greeted by a group of little Gentoo penguins(企
鹅)longing to say hello.These gentle, lovely gatekeepers welcomed her and kick-started what was to be a trip Ginni
would never forget.
Ever since her childhood, Ginni, now 71, has had a deep love for travel.Throughout her career(职业)as a
professional dancer, she toured in the UK, but always longed to explore further. When she retired from dancing and
her sons eventually flew the nest, she decided it was time to take the plunge.
After taking a degree at Chichester University in Related Arts, Ginni began to travel the world, eventually
getting work teaching English in Japan and Chile.And it was in Chile she discovered she could get last-minute
cheap deals on ships going to Antarctica from the islands off Tierra del Fuego, the southernmost tip of the South
American mainland.“I just decided I wanted to go,” she says.“I had no idea about what I'd find there and I wasn't
nervous, I just wanted to do it.And I wanted to do it alone as I always prefer it that way.”
In March 2008, Ginni boarded a ship with 48 passengers she'd never met before, to begin the journey towards
Antarctica.“From seeing the wildlife to witnessing sunrises, the whole experience was amazing.Antarctica left an
impression on me that no other place has,” Ginni says.“I remember the first time I saw a humpback whale; it just
rose out of the water like some prehistoric creature and I thought it was smiling at us.You could still hear the
operatic sounds it was making underwater.”The realization that this is a precious land, to be respected by humans, was one of the biggest things that hit
home to Ginni.
30.What does Ginni think about Antarctica after the journey?
A.It could be a home for her.
B.It should be easily accessible.
C.It should be well preserved.
D.It needs to be fully introduced.
30.【解析】选C。推理判断题。根据第五段可知,意识到这是一块宝贵的土地,应该受到人类的尊重,这是
Ginni最深刻的感受之一。据此可推断,Ginni认为南极洲应该受到很好的保护。故选C。

Sometime in the early 1960s, a significant thing happened in Sydney, Australia.The city discovered its
harbor.Then, one after another, Sydney discovered lots of things that were just sort of there—broad parks, superb
beaches, and a culturally diverse population.But it is the harbor that makes the city.
Andrew Reynolds, a cheerful fellow in his early 30s, pilots Sydney ferryboats for a living.I spent the whole
morning shuttling back and forth across the harbor.After our third run Andrew shut down the engine, and we went
our separate ways—he for a lunch break, I to explore the city.
“I'll miss these old boats,” he said as we parted.
“How do you mean?” I asked.
“Oh, they're replacing them with catamarans.Catamarans are faster, but they're not so elegant, and they're not
fun to pilot.But that's progress,I guess.”
Everywhere in Sydney these days, change and progress are the watchwords( 口号), and traditions are
increasingly rare.Shirley Fitzgerald, the city's official historian, told me that in its rush to modernity in the 1970s,
Sydney swept aside much of its past, including many of its finest buildings.“Sydney is confused about itself,” she
said.“We can't seem to make up our minds whether we want a modern city or a traditional one.It's a conflict that we
aren't getting any better at resolving(解决).”
On the other hand, being young and old at the same time has its attractions.I considered this when I met a
thoughtful young businessman named Anthony.“Many people say that we lack culture in this country,” he told
me.“What people forget is that the Italians, when they came to Australia, brought 2000 years of their culture, the
Greeks some 3000 years, and the Chinese more still.We've got a foundation built on ancient cultures but with a
drive and dynamism of a young country.It's a pretty hard combination to beat.”
He is right, but I can't help wishing they would keep those old ferries.
33.What can we learn about Andrew Reynolds?
A.He goes to work by boat.
B.He looks forward to a new life.
C.He pilots catamarans well.
D.He is attached to the old ferries.
33.【解析】选D。推理判断题。根据第五段 Andrew Reynolds所说的话“Oh, they're replacing them with
catamarans.Catamarans are faster, but they're not so elegant, and they're not fun to pilot.”可知,他认为双体船虽然
快,但并不那么优雅,而且驾驶起来也没有乐趣。结合第三段可知,他怀念旧船。据此可以推知,他喜欢旧船。

例3(2022·全国乙卷)
In 1916, two girls of wealthy families, best friends from Auburn, N.Y.—Dorothy Woodruff and Rosamond
Underwood—traveled to a settlement in the Rocky Mountains to teach in a one-room schoolhouse. The girls had
gone to Smith College. They wore expensive clothes. So for them to move to Elkhead, Colo. to instruct the childrenwhose shoes were held together with string was a surprise. Their stay in Elkhead is the subject of Nothing
Daunted: The Unexpected Education of Two Society Girls in the West by Dorothy Wickenden, who is a
magazine editor and Dorothy Woodruff's granddaughter.
Why did they go then? Well, they wanted to do something useful. Soon, however, they realized what they had
undertaken.
They moved in with a local family, the Harrisons, and, like them, had little privacy, rare baths, and a blanket of
snow on their quilt when they woke up in the morning. Some mornings, Rosamond and Dorothy would arrive at the
schoolhouse to find the children weeping from the cold. In spring, the snow was replaced by mud over ice.
In Wickenden's book, she expanded on the history of the West and also on feminism, which of course
influenced the girls' decision to go to Elkhead. A hair-raising section concerns the building of the railroads,which
entailed (牵涉) drilling through the Rockies, often in blinding snowstorms. The book ends with Rosamond and
Dorothy's return to Auburn.
Wickenden is a very good storyteller. The sweep of the land and the stoicism (坚忍) of the people move her to
some beautiful writing. Here is a picture of Dorothy Woodruff, on her horse, looking down from a hill top: “When
the sun slipped behind the mountains, it shed a rosy glow all around them. Then a full moon rose. The snow was
marked only by small animals: foxes, coyotes, mice, and varying hares, which turned white in the winter.”
26.Which part of Wickenden's writing is hair-raising?
A.The extreme climate of Auburn.
B.The living conditions in Elkhead.
C.The railroad building in the Rockies.
D.The natural beauty of the West.
26.【解析】选C。推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“A hair-raising section concerns the building of the railroads,
which entailed drilling through the Rockies, often in blinding snowstorms.(令人毛骨悚然的一段与修建铁路有关,
这涉及在令人眩目的暴风雪中钻穿落基山脉。)”可知,Wickenden的作品中谈到在修建落基山脉的铁路过程
中有令人毛骨悚然的经历。故选C。
例4 (2021·新高考卷I ) We prefer to describe emotional intelligence as a specific set of skills that can be used for
either good or bad purposes. The ability to accurately understand how others are feeling may be used by a doctor to
find how best to help her patients, while a cheater might use it to control potential victims. Being emotionally
intelligent does not necessarily make one a moral person.
33. Why does the author mention “doctor” and “cheater” in paragraph 2?
A. To explain a role. B. To clarify a concept.
C. To present a fact. D. To make a prediction.
【解析】B。推理判断题。根据“We prefer to describe emotional intelligence as a specific set of skills that can
be used for either good or bad purposes. (我们更喜欢把情商描述为一组特定的技能，可以用于好的或坏的目
的)”，可知此处在讲情商的概念，接着作者举“doctor”和“cheater”的例子是为了进一步阐明这个概念。
推断作者态度或观点
例5(2021·新高考卷I ) Although popular beliefs regarding emotional intelligence run far ahead of what research
can reasonably support, the overall effects of the publicity have been more beneficial than harmful. The most
positive aspect of this popularization is a new and much needed emphasis on emotion by employers, educators and
others interested in promoting social well-being. The popularization of emotional intelligence has helped both the
public and researchers re-evaluate the functionality of emotions and how they serve people adaptively in everyday
life.
28. What is the author’s attitude to the popularization of emotional intelligence?
31. Favorable. B. Intolerant. C. Doubtful. D. Unclear.【解析】A。推理判断题。根据“the overall effects of the publicity have been more beneficial than harmful”可
知，情商的普遍化总体效果是利大于弊，可以看出作者是赞同态度。
例6(2020·全国卷Ⅰ) Race walking shares many fitness benefits with running, research shows, while most likely
contributing to fewer injuries. It does, however, have its own problem.
As a result, she says, some of the injuries associated with running, such as runner’s knee, are uncommon
among race walkers. But the sport’s strange form does place considerable stress on the ankles and hips, so people
with a history of such injuries might want to be cautious in adopting the sport. In fact, anyone wishing to try race
walking should probably first consult a coach or experienced racer to learn proper technique, she says. It takes
some practice.
31. Which word best describes the author’s attitude to race walking?
A. Skeptical. B. Objective. C. Tolerant. D. Conservative.
【解析】B。推理判断题。根据“Race walking shares many fitness benefits with running, research shows, while
most likely contributing to fewer injuries. It does, however, have its own problem.”可知，研究表明，竞走和跑步

(南京市2023届高三年级学情调研) Plastic fishing nets, the so-called ghost nets, abandoned yearly in the
sea—about 1 million tons—are more than just rubbish; they’re a killer. Fish, sea birds, and turtles get caught in thenetting and die, with more species at risk.
Much shocked at this, Pranveer Singh Rathore, a materials-science engineer and materials R&D manager at
Samsung, and his team set themselves the task of giving new life to the deadly nets. Last month, Samsung revealed
a new line of Galaxy products made in part from recycled plastic fishing nets for the first time. The company
estimates this year alone it can recycle over 50 tons of ocean-bound plastic into the key components that will go
into its smartphones, tablets, and computers, thus taking a bite out of the global ghost nets problem.
It’s no small task to give waste fishing nets a second act. The nets are typically made of a substance called
nylon which tends to dramatically degrade (降解) the longer it sits in the ocean and is exposed to the sun. “This
makes it nearly impossible to use abandoned fishing nets directly,” Rathore explains. Besides, high-performance
smartphone, tablet, or PC has to be waterproof and can survive severe weather. The nylon in the fishing nets falls
far short of that level of durability.
To deal with that problem, Samsung last summer teamed up with two partners: one to collect and transform
the nets into tiny nylon pellets (颗粒) while the other to strengthen their toughness and durability. The end result:
The partners hit upon an eco-friendly and high-performance plastic material that’s being used to build the
component parts for its latest line of products. For example, two parts of the Galaxy S22 mobile phone—the key
bracket and the inner cover—are made of these fishing-net plastic materials. Samsung aims to use even more
upcycled materials in future product lines.
“That’s the hope for the globe and our mission,” Rathore smiles.
1.What can we learn about Rathore’s work?
1. It makes plastic easier to break down.
B. It marks the shift of Samsung’s mission.
C. It protects the planet from choking on plastic.
D. It raises public awareness of ocean exploration.

Abandoned outside an orphanage (孤儿院) as a baby and adopted at the age of three by a family in the
Netherlands, 16-year-old model Abbing has become known around the world, as a model who has appeared in
fashion magazines — but also as an inspiring representative of the albino (白化病人) community.
When it comes to modelling, Abbing has found her difference more of a blessing: she is represented by the
Zebedee Talent agency, which aims to make people who have disabilities more visible in the world of fashion.
“I want to help people to see that being different is good, and definitely not some curse (诅咒), as they
believe in countries like Tanzania and Malawi,” said Abbing. “Some companies try to include models who are
different, but sometimes for the wrong reason, because they want to say: ‘Hey, look at us! We are also including
people with differences or people of different color’.”
But Abbing welcomes what she sees as a shift. People now want to learn about and accept differences. “They
should also talk with people with differences directly, ask them questions and listen to what they have to say,” she
urged.
When not in front of the camera, Abbing loves climbing and swimming, and used to love competitive sports.
It’s important for her to focus on what is possible, rather than what isn’t. “At school, teachers tend to look at the
things you cannot do. I really didn’t like that, although they meant well. I would rather they had focused on the
things I can do instead.”
Abbing loves the world of travel and meeting new people, which her modelling has opened up, andparticularly working with artists and on artistic projects. The teen also pours her creativity into decoration
artwork. “Because I see the world from a different angle, my artwork turns out a little different as well,” she said.
3. What is one reason for Abbing’s being chosen by Zebedee?
A. Her physical disability. B. Her youthful appearance.
C. Her success in the fashion world. D. Her fame in the albino community.
4. Which of the following best describes Abbing?
A. Creative and honest. B. Optimistic and patient.
C. Courageous and outgoing. D. Athletic and humorous.

to each of them was four jars: one for Spending, one for Saving, one for Giving, and another for Investing. It was
from then on that his grandchildren started to be in control of what to do with the money they receive.
The value taught with the Spending jar is that you are responsible for your own happiness. Money gives you
independence and the opportunity to buy something you like.
The wider aim of the jars is to encourage teenagers to think more objectively about money and the things that
it can do, so that they can grow up understanding the value of the valuable. In this way, they will be better equipped
in their adult lives to make informed choices about how they use the money they have. Indeed, the small change
inside their jars could mean a big change in how they manage their money.
5.What is the purpose of the last paragraph?
A.To give suggestions. B. To draw a conclusion.
C. To make a comparison. D. To present an example.

forest a year by 2020, and 60,000 by 2030—financed from the proceeds of the state’s emissions-permit auctions (拍
卖). That’s only a small share of the total land area that could benefit, about half a million acres in all, so it will be
vital to prioritize areas at greatest risk of fire or drought.
State governments are well accustomed to managing forests, but traditionally they’ve focused on wildlife,
watersheds (分水岭) and opportunities for recreation. Only recently have they come to see the vital part forests will
have to play in storing carbon. California’s plan, which is expected to be finalized by the governor next year, should
serve as a model.

(广东惠州市2023届高三第一次调研考试试题) When the phone finally stopped ringing and the house lay
still with grief, I filled my home with the sweet smell of peach pie to mask the scent of worry that still lingered (继
续存留).
The weekend after Dad’s diagnosis, Mom had sent the same text to each concerned relative and friend: Jay
was diagnosed with Pick’s disease. We are going back to the doctor for more information. Then Mom put down the
phone, rubbed her forehead, and suggested that we go for a drive. On the interstate, we passed a board with clearred letters: “Fredericksburg peaches, the best fruit you can find in Central Texas.” Mom went to negotiate with the
stand owner.
Now in our kitchen, the sweet smell of peach juice drifted into the living room and pulled Dad away from the
football game on TV.
“Oh! You got peaches?” He eyed the fruit with childish glee (欢快).
“Here,” I handed him a knife. “We’re making peach pie.”
I showed him how to peel the skin off. As I made pie dough, he asked questions: How long does it take to
bake? Are you adding sugar? How many peaches? What should I do with the seeds? Showing him how to slice and
measure and mix in a calm, firm voice, I suddenly felt grown up.
The summer had reversed our roles; now, I was the adult. I stayed home all summer and cooked his dinner,
washed his T-shirts and helped him make phone calls. I stayed up late thinking about him and monitored him like
an anxious caretaker.
The same day, before the afternoon drive and peach pie, I had held my tears as I read the diagnosis for Pick’s
disease: four to ten years, depending on how fast the damaged proteins overpower Dad’s brain. I decided then that I
would be grateful for just four more years with Dad, enough for him to see me become an adult for real.
7. What can we learn about the family from the passage?
A. It takes years for Dad to recover. B. The author enjoys the time with Dad.
C. Dad shows little interest in football games. D. The author gets annoyed by Dad’s questions.

(山东省潍坊市 2022-2023 学年高三上学期期中考试) A new version of a student loan forgiveness
application will be officially launched by the Education Department later this month. It is to cancel up to $10,000 in
debt for those earning less than $125,000 per year and up to $20,000 for those who received Pell Grants. It will not
forgive any student loan debt under the debt relief plan prior to October 23, 2022.
How long the application will be up: The department is offering periodic access to the form—so borrowers
may have to refresh the site page or keep checking back. The application will be available through Dec. 31, 2023
What the application asks for: It requires only basic information, including name, birth date, Social Security
number, phone number and an e-mail address. Borrowers will not need what’s known as an FSA ID to log into the
application, nor will they need to upload any documents, including tax records.
Will borrowers need to prove they meet the plan’s income requirements? Instead of providing documents
that confirm you, as an individual, earned $125,000 in 2020 or 2021 or, as a couple, less than $250, 000, the
application simply asks borrowers to check a box to guarantee under the laws that all information provided on this
form is true and correct.
How long will it take to process each application? A matter of weeks. The department wants to relieve as
many debts as possible before student loan payments restart in January.

As a junior economics reporter, I was once given an assignment which made me panic. I was asked to write a
story about an economic concept I didn’t really understand. No one else from my team was around. Searchingonline left me more confused. Just then, Martin Wolf, the chief economics commentator (评论员) in my company,
walked past my desk. I took a deep breath and asked him. He explained it well in a few sentences and my problem
was unexpectedly solved.
Ever since then, I have been a big believer in asking “stupid” questions, by which I mean questions that you
fear make you look stupid. But I’m worried this is a dying art. Professor Arvind Narayanan once told me that his
students were always worrying their questions might be silly, which made the vast majority of his students tend to
keep silent in lectures no matter how he encouraged them, even when they were still filled with confusion.
Fear of asking “stupid” questions can lead you to pretend you know more than you do, which also makes you
more likely to believe whatever others say. One study published in 2021 asked participants to rank their
knowledge of a set of terms on a five-point scale from “never heard of it” to “know it well, understand the
concept”. Some of the terms were real; others were fake (伪造 的). The study found that people who were more
willing to pretend they know something well were more likely to fall for nonsense of others.
I know not everyone is lucky enough to have a Martin Wolf wandering past their desk. But trust me, a
journalist who asks questions for a living: most people really don’t mind being asked something “stupid”. If they
do, it is probably because they don’t really understand it themselves, or they have something to hide. In that
sense, you learn something useful either way.
10. Why does the author mention her encounter with Martin?
A. To describe a journalist’s work pressure.
B. To show the benefits of asking questions.
C. To present the best way to solve problems.
D. To introduce an economics reporter’s routine.
11. Which section of a website is this text most likely from?

A Technology. B. Opinion. C. Friendship. D. Culture.

Cory, aged 30, was diagnosed with spinal muscular atrophy （脊髓性肌萎缩症）at a very young age.
Because of his condition, he began using a wheelchair at age 4. His mother, Sandy Gilbreath, raised him as a single
parent. Although taking care of a child with a disability was challenging, she ensured that Cory didn't miss out on
the fun things in life. Sandy took him on road trips during summer breaks throughout his childhood. The exciting
experiences of exploring new places inspired him to set a lifelong goal of visiting all seven continents.Fortunately, Cory was able to do that just before the COVID-19 started. He and his mother traveled to
Antarctica in February, just before the borders closed. It was the seventh and final continent off his list. He became
the first-ever wheelchair user to visit all the seven continents!
According to Cory, traveling in a wheelchair requires a wide range of planning and research. He starts his
research six to twelve months before each trip, making sure that there are accessible transportation options in the
location. He would also call up hotels or rental homes to confirm if they are truly as accessible as they claim to be.
When Cory started going on adventures, there weren't many online resources discussing accessible travel. To
help other travelers with disabilities explore the world as he does, he decided to share his knowledge in his blog.
Aiming to promote representation of the wheelchair-using community, Cory and his mother wrote a children's
book, titled Let's Explore with Cor Cor, which is about a boy who travels around the world in his powered
wheelchair.
Traveling to all seven continents wasn't something I was sure was going to be possible," he said. "But if you
stay determined and keep a positive attitude, the opportunities are limitless."

clinging (依偎) to their dying mothers. It’s very tiring work. Pam relies on a few volunteers to help rescue the flying
foxes during the migration season. Usually, they are college students who come Down Under for a semester of life
in the rainforest. Canace came from America to lend a hand to her aunt Pam, and to look for some kind of purpose
in life after her mother passed away.
Losing your mother is never easy, but for a teenage girl, the loss at a time of emotional need and guidance is
particularly affecting. Going off to live in wilderness half a world away seemed a good thing to do. Pam accepted
her with open arms and invited Canace to stay as long as she wanted. After all, she did need the help. So Pam
taught Canace to feed the baby flying foxes, keep them wrapped in nappies, nurse them back to health and take
them back into the wilderness to rejoin their families.
Day after day, Pam led Canace through the rainforest, collecting babies and bringing them back to the shed
where they were treated by an animal doctor, fed every two hours by bottle and even taught to fly. Each flying foxreleased back into the wild was a victory. And each time one winged away, the loss Canace felt seemed just a little
bit less.
We never really get over the loss of a love done, but when we take care of a weak creature, or reach out to
somebody else who is hurting, the wound heals just a little bit, and the hurt becomes a memory of being loved.
