益、报名方式,还列明学前及幼儿园不同时段、托管的每周收费标准。
21. 细节理解题。根据第一段“We are uniquely positioned to stimulate curiosity in young readers and empower
families with the tools they need to support their child’s growth as a confident reader.( 我们拥有独特的优
势,能够激发小读者的求知欲,并为家庭提供所需的支持工具,帮助他们助力孩子成长为自信的读
者)”可知,Beyond the Book 旨在激发小读者的兴趣,故选A。
22. 细节理解题。根据Your Beyond the Book membership includes:部分“*A monthly newsletter with expert
tips and tricks for developing readers.(一份每月发行的电子简报,其中包含面向阅读能力正在发展的儿童
的专家建议和技巧)”可知,Beyond the Book 会员享有优质的阅读指导,故选C。
23. 细节理解题。根据Kindergarten 部分“Full Day Program $800(全天课程费用:800 美元)”以及最后一部
分“3 days—$145(3 天145 美元)”可知,如果孩子上的是幼儿园全日制课程,且每天有三次延迟接送服
务,那么每周的费用是800+145=945 美元,故选B。
【错解归因】
这篇应用文阅读理解整体难度在0.85 左右,是一道基础题,也是保分题。但根据样本数据看,考生答
题情况不尽如人意:21 题得分率约88.8%;22 题得分率约 49.6%;23 题得分率约88.4%。22 题竟然有一
半还要多一点的考生失去了这个宝贵的2.5 分。
22 题作为本篇阅读理解的最多失分点,考生错选的本质是审题层面的核心短语理解偏差与答题层面的
信息处理能力不足形成双重叠加,再加上题目选项设计的陷阱诱导,最终导致近半数考生出错,具体错选
原因可归纳为以下三点(三层叠加影响答案的判定):
一、题干理解障碍
部分考生对设问中“be entitled to”的含义理解模糊,以至将答题范畴窄化。
题干“What is a Beyond the Book member entitled to?”的核心是固定短语be entitled to,其意思为“有权
享有、有资格获得”,侧重基于会员身份拥有的各类专属权益,既包括实物福利,也涵盖服务、指导、机
会等无形权益。但考生对该短语的理解存在两大偏差:一是仅停留在浅层认知,无法快速提炼出“找会员
专属权益” 的答题核心;二是将权益范畴窄化为“看得见的实物福利”,带着“找具体东西”的预设阅
读原文,对无形的指导类权益缺乏敏感度,为后续错选埋下伏笔。
二、信息处理短板
部分考生只会浅层词汇匹配,缺乏信息概括与同义转化能力。
本题正确选项C“Quality reading guidance 优质的阅读指导”对应原文会员权益“A monthly newsletter
with expert tips and tricks for developing readers 含阅读进阶专家建议和技巧的月度电子简报”,原文未直接
出现 “guidance”字样,需要考生将“expert tips and tricks”进行抽象概括和同义转化。但考生的信息处理仅
停留在 “关键词一一对应”的浅层阶段,无法完成原文细节到选项表述的转化,甚至因原文无显性匹配
词汇,直接排除正确选项,丧失答题核心依据。
三、选项设计陷阱
部分考生易被干扰项误导,忽略细节偷换与信息甄别。
题目干扰项设计贴合考生的阅读惯性,以相似词汇制造视觉误导,且考生缺乏对选项细节的甄别能
力,成为错选的直接诱因:干扰项 B “Invitations to sign books”与原文“Exclusive invites to...book signings”
存在词汇相似性,考生易因看到“sign books”与“book signings”的关联而盲目匹配,忽略核心细节的偷换
——原文是 “受邀参加图书签售会”,而选项表述为“受邀参与签名”,动作内涵与主体完全不符;同
时,考生对“无中生有”类选项的排除意识薄弱,在正确选项非常隐蔽的情况下,既无法通过概括转化锁
定答案,又难以识别干扰项的细节错误,最终被迫随机选择,导致错选。
综上所述,部分考生错选的完整线索:因“be entitled to”理解偏差,带着“找实物福利”的预设审题
→阅读原文时,无法将专家建议概括为阅读指导,直接排除正确选项→看到干扰项B 与原文的相似词汇,
忽略细节偷换盲目匹配→最终错选答案。
【2026·江苏苏北四市(徐州、淮安、连云港、宿迁)第一次调研B 篇】
Amit Ghose, a 35-year-old man of Indian-origin in Birmingham, has claimed that he was denied service at a
London café due to his appearance. He described his experience as upsetting, saying, “Everyone in the café was
staring at me. The person serving me looked up and said: ‘Oh,we’re not serving any more’. She turned around and
walked off. But clearly, they were still serving.”
Ghose underwent a surgery at 11, resulting in facial disfigurement(畸形), for which he was bullied in school.
He struggled with self-acceptance and had to hide his face, unwilling to show it to others for a long time. A
transfiguration came through a school activity—cricket, allowing him to connect with others and build friendships.
Through the sport, he was able to redefine himself, changing focus from his appearance to his skills and passion for
the game.
As an adult, he continued to face upsetting reactions to his appearance, including constant staring, and
whispered comments from onlookers. “The pointing, the tapping, the friend next to them saying ‘have you seen that
guy’s face’, that is also constant,” he added, drowning himself in desperation.
Ghose’s wife, Piyali, helped him learn to accept himself, encouraging him to share his story on social media.
Despite initial hesitation, he started a TikTok account in early 2023, gaining nearly 200,000 followers and millions
of likes. By sharing his experiences, Ghose became more self-accepting and confident. He transitioned from a law
firm job to full-time motivational speaking, prioritising helping young people.
“Disability or no disability, visible difference or no visible difference, we all have insecurities, we all have
things that we’re faced with, and challenges we’re faced with. I just want to share with people that if we truly
celebrate who we are, accept who we are, fall in love with who we are, then we can be more confident,” he said.
24. Why was Ghose denied service at the London café?
A. He arrived there after closing time.
B. The café was fully reserved that day.
C. The staff were biased against his looks.
D. He upset the regular work in the café.
25. What does the underlined word “transfiguration” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Shift.
B. Thought.
C. Prize.
D. Record.
26. What caused Ghose to share his story on social media?
A. Encouragement from his wife.
B. The success in his law firm job.
C. His childhood bullying experiences.
D. Requests from his TikTok followers.
27. What message does the author seem to convey in the text?
A. Actions speak louder than words.
B. You are enough just as you are.
C. A trouble shared is a trouble halved.
D. Where there is a will, there is a way.
【答案】24. C 25. A 26. A 27. B
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述印度裔男子Ghose 因面部畸形屡遭不公,板球带来转变,在妻子鼓
励下分享故事并成为励志演讲者,传递接纳自我的人生理念。
24. 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Amit Ghose, a 35-year-old man of Indian-origin in Birmingham, has claimed
that he was denied service at a London café due to his appearance.(伯明翰一位35 岁的印度裔男子阿米特・
戈斯声称,他因外貌问题在伦敦一家咖啡馆被拒绝提供服务)”可知,戈斯被拒绝服务的原因是咖啡馆
工作人员对其外貌存在偏见,故选C。
25. 词义猜测题。根据第二段中“Ghose underwent a surgery at 11, resulting in facial disfigurement(畸形), for
which he was bullied in school. He struggled with self-acceptance and had to hide his face, unwilling to show
it to others for a long time. A transfiguration came through a school activity—cricket, allowing him to connect
with others and build friendships.(戈斯11 岁时接受了一场手术,导致面部畸形,他因此在学校受到欺
凌。他难以接纳自己,不得不把脸藏起来,很长一段时间都不愿让别人看到。一场学校活动——板
球,带来了transfiguration,让他得以与他人建立联系、缔结友谊)”可知,戈斯从自卑封闭到能与人交
往,状态发生了改变,“transfiguration”在此处意为“转变”,故选A。
26. 细节理解题。根据第四段中“Ghose’s wife, Piyali, helped him learn to accept himself, encouraging him to
share his story on social media.(戈斯的妻子皮雅丽帮助他学会接纳自己,鼓励他在社交媒体上分享自己
的故事)”可知,是妻子的鼓励让戈斯决定在社交媒体上分享自己的经历,故选A。
27. 主旨大意题。根据最后一段中“Disability or no disability, visible difference or no visible difference, we all
have insecurities, we all have things that we’re faced with, and challenges we’re faced with. I just want to
share with people that if we truly celebrate who we are, accept who we are, fall in love with who we are, then
we can be more confident(无论是否身有残疾,无论是否有明显的外貌差异,我们每个人都有不安,都
有要面对的事情和挑战。我只是想告诉人们,如果我们真正赞美自己、接纳自己、爱上自己,我们就
能变得更加自信)”并结合全文戈斯从自我否定到接纳本真自我的经历可知,文章传递的核心理念是
“接纳原本的自己就足够了”,故选B。
【错解归因】
这篇记叙文阅读理解整体难度在0.65 左右,是一道基础题,也是保分题。但根据全样本(26000 余考
生)数据看,考生答题情况不大尽如人意:24 题得分率约80.67%;25 题得分率约75.89%;26 题得分率约
94.2%;27 题得分率约85.71%。该篇阅读理解题文本话题虽简单、词汇句式难度较低,但答题情况未达预
期。各题错选核心源在于学生核心阅读能力短板、不良应试答题习惯,叠加题目设计暗藏的细节陷阱,三
者相互影响导致失分。四题中,25 题的失分率为最:居然有8.7%的考生选择了B 选项,有6.84%的考生选
择了C 选项,有8.55%的考生选择了D 选项。看来词义猜测题亦是考生的软肋。
25 题考查超纲词“transfiguration”的词义猜测,解题核心是结合第二段Ghose 从“自卑封闭”到“社
交建友”的状态对比推导含义,答案为表“转变”的“Shift”。
部分考生错选 BCD 三个选项,均是因为脱离文本核心语境、误读句间逻辑,将局部信息或主观联想
当作词义依据,未贴合解析中强调的“状态改变”这个核心。具体错因如下:
●部分考生错选错选B(Thought 想法,思考):混淆“转变的结果”与“转变本身”,误读逻辑关系;
●部分考生错选错选C(Prize 奖品,奖赏):无文本依据的主观臆断,完全脱离语境 解析中未提及任何
与“奖励、奖品”相关的信息,该选项是考生脱离文本、仅凭生活经验的盲目联想;
●部分考生错选D(Record 记录,经历)):混淆“事件本身”与“事件带来的影响”,抓细节忘核
心。
三类错选的共性核心问题:所有错选均源于考生未遵循词义猜测题的核心解题原则——以文本语境
为唯一依据,既未抓住解析中强调的“前后状态对比”这一关键线索,也未正确梳理句间“活动
→transfiguration→具体行为改变”的逻辑关系,而是通过局部信息片面解读、生活经验主观联想解
题,最终偏离词义核心。
说明:题目序号仿2025 全国高考一卷。以后各专题同。

Founded in 1860, this organization treats over 7,000 animals with love and care each year. With a hospital,
qualified vet(兽医), and a team of dedicated carers, this state-of-the-art facility offers stray(流浪的), abandoned,

improve their relationship with their pets.
Celia Hammond Animal Rescue

animal cruelty. The organization also offers treatment and training to help dogs who have not been given proper

年设立,收留各类宠物,包括需要新家的宠物以及在收容所外获救的宠物,每年救助一千一百多只狗
狗)”、Celia Hammond Animal Rescue 部分中的“Founded in 1986 by a model named Celia Hammond, this
charity grew from her early campaigns against animal cruelty.(这一慈善机构由模特Celia Hammond 于1986

organization was founded in 2009 to transform the lives of unwanted, abandoned, and stray dogs in the UK
and around the world.(该救援机构成立于2009 年,旨在改善英国及全球范围内那些被嫌弃、被遗弃的
流浪犬的生活)”可知,Battersea Dogs&Cats 的创立时间最早,拥有最长的历史,故选D。
22. 细节理解题。根据Mayhew 部分中的“The team also works with pet parents to help them improve their
relationship with their pets.(该团队还与宠物主人合作,帮助他们改善与宠物之间的关系。)”可知,

is a registered charity working in and around London to rescue dogs and help them find loving forever homes.
(这是一家在伦敦及其周边开展工作的注册慈善机构,致力于救助狗狗并帮助它们找到充满爱的永久家
园。)”可知,Celia Hammond Animal Rescue 和All Dogs matter 这两家机构的共同之处是都会帮助狗狗
寻找新的家,故选B。

(2026 届安徽省淮北市高三第一次质量检测)Early memories have the power to shape who you are.
Unfortunately, in my life, many of my formative moments centered around my struggles with body image.
For most of my life, I have been highly conscious of others’ perceptions of my appearance. Whenever I’m
around someone I don’t know well, I actively use body language to make myself appear thinner. When I was in
fourth grade, I remember asking my best friend, “Do you think I’m fat?” She responded, “No, of course not.” But
her response didn’t comfort me. Since then, I have been vigilant of my body; I realized that the way I see myself
isn’t the same as how others see me.
Hearing people talk about weight gain as a negative has affected how I feel about myself. One friend used to
tell me I’m on “the good side of plus-sized.” All it does is tell me that I’m overweight. In middle school, I felt like I
had to prove to my friends that I was active and healthy. And even today, I worry over normal weight changes, all
to try and avoid people sharing their “concerns” with my size.
Discussing body image is difficult. What I have found is that being allowed to speak openly without
judgment builds my self-confidence, because I feel that my voice is being heard. I am beginning to listen to my
body and understand how it works. I hope to stop overanalyzing and build confidence — not through a number on
the scale, but through self-acceptance.
24. What does the author realize after talking to her best friend?
A. Her friend truly understood her worries.
B. She needed to lose weight immediately.
C. Her self-image differed from others’ views.
D. Her appearance was objectively unattractive.
25. What does the underlined word vigilant mean in paragraph 2?
A. Slightly conscious.
B. Extremely aware.
C. Completely confident.
D. Comfortably familiar.
26. How did her friend’s words “the good side of plus-sized” affect the author?
A. It confirmed her fear of being overweight.
B. It provided comfort about her appearance.
C. It motivated her to exercise more regularly.
D. It helped her to understand body positivity.
27. What is the main message of the passage?
A. Social approval determines personal worth.
B. Childhood experiences cannot be overcome.
C. Weight loss should be the primary health goal.
D. Self-acceptance matters more than appearance.
【答案】24. C 25. B 26. A 27. D
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了作者的早期记忆受身体意象困扰,长期在意他人对自己外表的看
法,因他人相关言论焦虑,如今希望通过坦诚表达和自我接纳建立自信,不再过度纠结体重。
24. 细节理解题。根据第二段“But her response didn’t comfort me.(但她的回答并没有让我感到宽慰)”以及
“I realized that the way I see myself isn’t the same as how others see me.(我意识到自己看待自己的方式与
他人对我的看法并不相同)”可知,作者看待自己的方式和别人看待自己的方式是不一样的,故选C。
25. 词义猜测题。根据划线词句“Since then, I have been vigilant of my body; I realized that the way I see
myself isn’t the same as how others see me.(从那以后,我开始更加vigilant 自己的身体状况;我意识到自
己看待自己的方式与他人对我的看法并不相同)”,再结合,前文中作者一直都很在意自己的外貌,并
且也很在乎别人对自己外貌的看法。作者在与友人交流之后,发现看法的不一致而更加敏感。故划线
词意思是“格外警惕,高度警觉”,故选B。
26. 细节理解题。根据第三段“One friend used to tell me I’m on “the good side of plus-sized.” All it does is tell
me that I’m overweight.(有位朋友曾跟我说:“你属于‘算是微胖中较好的那一边’。”但这其实只是
在告诉我,我体重超标了)”可知,作者朋友所说的“大码身材的优点”证实了作者对肥胖的恐惧,故
选A。
27. 主旨大意题。根据最后一段“I hope to stop overanalyzing and build confidence — not through a number on
the scale, but through self-acceptance.(我希望不再过度纠结于体重问题,而是建立起自信——不是依靠
体重秤上的数字,而是依靠自我接纳)”以及文章首段提出作者早期关于身材的痛苦记忆,塑造了长久
以来的自我认知;第二段回忆童年(四年级)的具体事件,展现“我”对外界眼光的过度敏感以及自我
认知与外界认知的割裂;第三段叙述中学及成年后,社会评价和同伴言论如何持续加剧“我”的焦
虑,导致“我”不断试图证明自己;最后一段通过开放的对话建立自信,并决心从“过度分析”转向
“自我接纳”可知,这篇文章的主要观点是自我接纳比外表更重要,故选D。
B-2
(2026 届河北省高三第一次模拟)I have always enjoyed travelling. Having learned that my father was
seriously ill, I immediately returned from London to care for him and spend precious time together. After he passed
away, I felt an emptiness and longed to “be on the move” again.
In early 2023, I visited the Galapagos Islands for a much-needed break. On Floreana Island, I came across
Post Office Bay, where a barrel(桶)has served as an informal postbox since 1793. It was first used by sailors to send
mail back home: they would leave letters there, and other sailors finding mail addressed to their home ports would
take and deliver it when they returned. Today, tourists keep the tradition alive.
The barrel was full of letters and postcards waiting for delivery. I brought home two postcards: one from a
student to a teacher, and the other from a girl to her friend. The joy they brought to the recipients gave me great
satisfaction and pleasure and planted an idea in my mind—to spend a year delivering such letters while keeping my
remote job.
In March 2024, I returned to the Galapagos Islands and selected 55 letters addressed to people across seven
continents. Relying mainly on the addresses, I lost my way sometimes and asked locals for help. Most people were
shocked at first, but their surprise soon turned into smiles when they understood. There were challenges as well as
touching moments. In Norway, a woman mistook my selfie( 自拍照)stick for a weapon and called the police. In
Belize, a love letter reached a man who had broken up with his partner—and they reunited weeks later. My
favourite delivery was in Mexico City—it was a letter from a daughter to her ill mother, thanking her for
encouraging her to follow her dreams.
The journey ended in March this year, but the desire to explore and connect continues to define my path
forward.
24. What does the phrase “be on the move” refer to in the first paragraph?
A. Begin a journey. B. Return to work.
C. Take a break.
D. Explore the unknown.
25. What is special about Post Office Bay?
A. Sailors made it for contact.
B. It serves tourists specifically.
C. It was inspired by a barrel.
D. Everyone can be the postman.
26. What motivated the author to start his year-long letter delivery?
A. Encounters with the recipients.
B. Flexibility of his remote job.
C. Delight from his initial deliveries.
D. Traditions of Post Office Bay.
27. Which can best describe the author’s delivery journey?
A. Simple but heart-warming.
B. Eventful but far-reaching.
C. Dangerous but life-changing.
D. Expensive but eye-opening.
【答案】24. A 25. D 26. C 27. B
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者在父亲去世后,通过旅行寻找慰藉,并在加拉帕戈斯群岛的
邮局湾发现了传统邮筒,由此萌生了用一年时间投递信件的念头,最终完成了这一充满挑战与感
动的旅程。
24. 词义猜测题。根据第一段“I have always enjoyed travelling. Having learned that my father was seriously ill,
I immediately returned from London to care for him and spend precious time together. After he passed away, I
felt an emptiness and longed to “be on the move” again.(我一直喜欢旅行。得知父亲病重后,我立即从伦
敦回来照顾他,共度宝贵时光。他去世后,我感到空虚,渴望再次be on the move)”可知,作者一直喜
欢旅行,便为了照顾病重的父亲,放弃了旅行。父亲去世后,作者希望摆脱空虚感,渴望重新开始。
因此,划线短语be on the move 意为“开始旅程”,故选A。
25. 细节理解题。根据第二段“On Floreana Island, I came across Post Office Bay, where a barrel(桶)has served
as an informal postbox since 1793. It was first used by sailors to send mail back home: they would leave
letters there, and other sailors finding mail addressed to their home ports would take and deliver it when they
returned. Today, tourists keep the tradition alive.(在弗洛雷纳岛上,我偶然发现了邮局湾,那里自1793 年
以来一直有一个桶作为非正式邮箱。它最初被水手们用来寄信回家:他们会把信留在那里,其他水手
发现寄往他们家乡港口的邮件时,会在返回时取走并投递。如今,游客们让这一传统得以延续)”可
知,邮局湾的特别之处在于它是一个非正式的邮递系统,任何人都可以成为邮递员,为他人传递信
件,故选D。
26. 细节理解题。根据第三段“The barrel was full of letters and postcards waiting for delivery. I brought home
two postcards: one from a student to a teacher, and the other from a girl to her friend. The joy they brought to
the recipients gave me great satisfaction and pleasure and planted an idea in my mind—to spend a year

极大的满足和愉悦,并在我的脑海中种下了一个念头——花一年时间投递这样的信件,同时继续我的
远程工作)”可知,作者最初投递信件时获得的喜悦激发了他开始为期一年的信件投递,故选C。
27. 推理判断题。根据第四段“ In March 2024, I returned to the Galpagos Islands and selected 55 letters
addressed to people across seven continents. Relying mainly on the addresses, I lost my way sometimes and

to explore and connect continues to define my path forward.(旅程于今年3 月结束,但探索和联系的渴望继
续定义着我前进的道路)”可知,这些经历表明,作者的旅程充满了各种事件(有迷路、有误会、有感
人重逢),且其影响深远(改变了他人生活,也影响了作者自己),故选B。

(2026 届湖南省永州市上学期高考第二次模拟考试)In a university rehearsal hall, he performs Xinjiang’s
eagle dance gracefully, across the globe, he wanders museums and art galleries, seeking the beauty of distant
cultures and long-lost histories. This may seem the daily life of an artist, but in reality, it belongs to Dawulijan
Yerhalik,a young archaeologist( 考古学家)who “converses with the earth” and devotes himself to uncovering
Xinjiang’s ancient secrets.
Born in Hutubi County, Xinjiang, Dawulijan spent his high school years in Suzhou and studied archaeology
at Peking University for a full decade, finally earning his doctoral degree. His career path took clear shape in
Professor Lin Meicun’s Silk Road Archaeology class: a slide of Xinjiang’s Kangjia Shimenzi Petroglyphs(岩画)left
him astonished by his lack of knowledge about his hometown’s precious heritage. In that very moment, a deep
connection to archaeology was established, and he determined to focus on Silk Road and Xinjiang archaeological
research.
His fieldwork journey started at the Tonggusibaxi Site in Aksu, where he perfected foundational skills like
soil texture identification and trowel use under Professor Chen Ling’s careful guidance. He finds excavating
sites(发掘遗址)used across multiple historical periods the most complex yet fascinating part of the work, as each
layer reveals unique traces of ancient human activity. In 2024, his team made a landmark discovery at the
Tangchaodun site — pieces of Chinese-written Buddhist scrolls. It was the first time such items had been found in
the northern Tianshan foothills, providing critical material for studying how Buddhist texts spread in the Western
Regions.
For Dawulijan, Xinjiang is a unique archaeological treasure, and his work is a sacred mission to tell
Xinjiang’s rich and vivid stories to the world.
24. The underlined word “converses” in Paragraph 1 probably means ________.
A. Cooperates.

C. Communicates.
D. Compares.
25. How did Dawulijan feel during Professor Lin’s class?
A. Impressed.
B. Hesitant.
C. Uninterested.
D. Confident.
26. What does the appeal of multi-period excavation sites lie in?
A. Possibility of making landmark discoveries.
B. Chance to polish essential archaeological skills.
C. Rare cultural relics native to northern Tianshan.
D. Unique traces of ancient human activity in each layer.
27. What does Dawulijan’s experience show?
A. High-tech skills are key to professional success.
B. Awards are the best proof of one’s professional value.
C. Love for your roots contributes to a meaningful calling.
D. Preserving cultural heritage is everyone’s shared mission.
【答案】24. C 25. A 26. D 27. C

24. 词义猜测题。根据划线词组所在句“This may seem the daily life of an artist, but in reality, it belongs to
Dawulijan Yerhalik, a young archaeologist(考古学家)who “converses with the earth” and devotes himself to
uncovering Xinjiang’s ancient secrets.(这般生活,看似是艺术家的日常,实则属于Dawulijan Yerhalik
——一位以“与大地……”为使命、潜心探寻新疆古老奥秘的青年考古学家。)”可知,“converses
with the earth”是对考古学家Dawulijan 工作的形象描述,其核心是通过考古发掘探寻大地之下的新疆
古老奥秘,即考古学家从大地中挖掘历史信息,如同与大地“交流、对话”,故选C。
25. 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“His career path took clear shape in Professor Lin Meicun’s Silk Road
Archaeology class: a slide of Xinjiang’s Kangjia Shimenzi Petroglyphs(岩画)left him astonished by his lack of
knowledge about his hometown’s precious heritage.(他的职业方向,在林梅村教授的丝绸之路考古课堂上
逐渐明晰:课堂上,一张新疆康家石门子岩画的幻灯片,让他惊觉自己对家乡珍贵的文化遗产竟知之
甚少)”可知,在林教授的课堂上,新疆康家石门子岩画的幻灯片让他为自己对家乡珍贵文化遗产的无
知感到震惊,这份震惊也让他与考古学结下羁绊,坚定了研究方向,可见他在课堂上受到了极大的触
动,故选A。
26. 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“He finds excavating sites(发掘遗址)used across multiple historical periods
the most complex yet fascinating part of the work, as each layer reveals unique traces of ancient human
activity.(在他看来,发掘那些历经多个历史时期的遗址,是考古工作中最复杂却也最具魅力的部分,
因为遗址的每一层土层,都留存着古代人类活动独有的痕迹)”可知,Dawulijan 认为发掘跨多个历史时
期的遗址极具魅力,而原因正是这类遗址的每一层都留存着古代人类活动的独特痕迹,故选D。
27. 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“His career path took clear shape in Professor Lin Meicun’s Silk Road

他惊觉自己对家乡珍贵的文化遗产竟知之甚少。就在那一刻,他与考古学结下了深厚的羁绊,也下定
决心将研究重心放在丝绸之路与新疆考古领域)”可知,Dawulijan 因家乡新疆的康家石门子岩画触动,
惊觉对家乡珍贵遗产的无知,从而决心深耕丝绸之路与新疆考古研究;而根据最后一段“ For
Dawulijan, Xinjiang is a unique archaeological treasure, and his work is a sacred mission to tell Xinjiang’s
rich and vivid stories to the world.(于Dawulijan 而言,新疆是一处独一无二的考古宝库,而他的工作,
便是向世界讲述新疆丰富鲜活的故事,这是一份属于他的神圣使命。)”可知,他视新疆为独一无二的
考古宝库、将向世界讲述新疆的故事当作神圣使命。由此可知,Dawulijan 的职业选择与毕生追求,均
源于对家乡根脉的热爱,这份热爱让他找到了属于自己的、极具意义的职业使命,故选C。

(2026 届湖南省部分高中高三第一次联考)I was sitting on my living room sofa. “Get up and go to work
out,” I said to myself. No movement yet. Picturing the athlete who once ran for hours, trained nonstop, and played
with intensity couldn’t stir up the will to walk 10 yards to the gym for even 20 minutes of lifting.
I had graduated from college as a 21-year-old young man, and with that came the sudden end of my soccer
career. Losing that clarity hit harder than any physical challenge I’d ever faced. The scaffolding of my life had
fallen apart. It was replaced by a complex and confusing web of competing priorities with no clear hierarchy(层次)
—no coach telling me what mattered most, no obvious way to keep score. I felt directionless, empty and lost.
Months later, I met Arthur Brooks, the author of From Strength to Strength, by chance. He has spent decades
studying what makes people truly happy, and he has noticed a troubling pattern: We’ve lost our connection to
meaning, and that is what puts us in a bad mood. Meaning will slip away unnoticeably. The job that once energized
you will become routine. This is not failure but a human condition. We’re supposed to lose our sense of meaning
periodically because we never permanently solve it.
The most important thing that Brooks has taught me is that meaning isn’t a destination to reach but a way we
travel through life. The struggle never gets easier, but we can find joy in the difficulty. We can stop seeing these
tough times as our enemies and start seeing them as partners, letting each crisis of meaning teach us something new
about ourselves and what we truly value.
For my soccer-playing self—who was trapped in the belief that meaning should be permanent, something
given to us that provides a solid, sensible structure for one’s life—this would have sounded like terrible news, but
it’s actually liberating.
24. What can be learned about the author from paragraph 1?
A. He was exhausted.
B. He was demotivated.
C. He was ambitious.
D. He was disorganized.
25. What does the underlined word “scaffolding” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Supporting item.
B. Temporary plan.
C. Hidden hardship.D. Emotional bond.
26. Why may we feel unhappy according to Brooks?
A. We struggle to follow our routines.
B. We tend to pursue unrealistic goals.
C. We are disconnected from meaning.
D. We are faced with demanding tasks.
27. What lesson has the author learned from Brooks?
A. Celebrating small moments in life.
B. Accepting struggles as unavoidable.
C. Welcoming unpredictable changes.
D. Valuing life’s journey over purpose.
【答案】24. B 25. A 26. C 27. D
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了作者因结束足球生涯失去生活方向,偶然结识 Brooks 后,从其身
上领悟到:意义不是人生终点,而是前行方式,要在困境中感受人生旅程的价值。
24. 细节理解题。根据第一段“I was sitting on my living room sofa. “Get up and go to work out,” I said to
myself. No movement yet. Picturing the athlete who once ran for hours, trained nonstop, and played with
intensity couldn’t stir up the will to walk 10 yards to the gym for even 20 minutes of lifting.(我正坐在客厅的
沙发上。“起来去锻炼一下吧,”我对自己说道。目前还没有任何动静。想象那位曾经长时间奔跑、
不间断训练、全力以赴比赛的运动员,却再也无法激发自己迈出 10 码去健身房锻炼哪怕 20 分钟的
意愿)”可知,从第一段中可以了解到作者缺乏动力、萎靡不振的状态,故选B。
25. 词义猜测题。根据第二段中“I had graduated from college as a 21-year-old young man, and with that came
the sudden end of my soccer career. Losing that clarity hit harder than any physical challenge I’d ever faced.(
我大学毕业时年仅 21 岁,随之而来的是我足球生涯的突然终结。失去那种清晰的目标感比我曾经历
过的任何身体上的挑战都更让我感到痛苦。)”以及“The… of my life had fallen apart. It was replaced by
a complex and confusing web of competing priorities with no clear hierarchy( 层次)—no coach telling me
what mattered most, no obvious way to keep score.(我生活的……彻底崩塌了。取而代之的是一张错综复
杂、令人困惑的、相互冲突的优先事项网络,没有明确的等级顺序——没有教练告诉我什么才是最重
要的,也没有明确的方式来衡量成效。)”可知,前文指出作者大学毕业告别足球生涯,失去了生活的
清晰方向;后句说明原本的东西消失后,生活变得杂乱无章、没有主次。由此可推知,scaffolding 是
支撑作者生活、让生活有秩序的东西,即“支撑物”。A 选项Supporting item“支撑物”符合语境,
故选A。
26. 细节理解题。根据第三段中“He has spent decades studying what makes people truly happy, and he has
noticed a troubling pattern: We’ve lost our connection to meaning, and that is what puts us in a bad mood.( 他
花了数十年时间研究是什么让人们真正感到快乐,并且他注意到一个令人不安的模式:我们已经失去
了对意义的联系,而这正是让我们心情不佳的原因。)”可知,根据布鲁克斯的观点,人们不快乐的核
心原因是我们与生命的意义脱节,故选C。
27. 推理判断题。根据第四段中“The most important thing that Brooks has taught me is that meaning isn’t a
destination to reach but a way we travel through life. The struggle never gets easier, but we can find joy in the
difficulty.( 布鲁克斯教给我的最重要的一点是,意义并非一个需要抵达的目标,而是一种我们在生活
中前行的方式。这种挣扎永远不会变得轻松,但我们可以在艰难中找到快乐。)”可推知,作者从布鲁
克斯身上学到了重视人生旅程本身而非目标,故选D。

(2026 届江西省新余市高三一模)Efforts to help Scotland’s red squirrels are bearing positive fruits, which
owes much to the Saving Scotland’s Red Squirrels(SSRS)project and its helper, Polly Pullar, who has transformed
her farm into red squirrels’ natural habitat.
Polly recalls her first encounters with red squirrels at school in Dunkeld. Despite being a top student and
popular girl on campus, she, as a boarder, frequently missed her family far away when she was alone. She got her
first baby squirrels to look after in the nearby woods. “I became completely absorbed in them and they distracted
me from missing home too much,” she says.
The squirrels eventually returned to the wild, and since then she has regularly taken more in, developing
special techniques such as regular touching to stimulate bodily functions. In Polly’s view, the eventual release is
often challenging because the newly released squirrels still need feeding until they rewild themselves. Their
susceptible character makes them suffer from stress more seriously than other small creatures.
Polly’s own farm, where she lives now, has a rising population of the reds. With the help of the SSRS, more
than 20,000 trees have been planted. On the farm, everything is kept untidy. “We arrange it intentionally to keep the
living environment of squirrels original and natural.” To Polly’s relief, it has proved a major boost for the reds’
population.
Polly believes the reds have a healthy future if efforts can be maintained. That is a matter of money, one for
the politicians. The experience of raising red squirrels has taught Polly a lesson: “When I have these baby squirrels
in my hands and they are completely dependent on me, they highlight the fact that we humans hold the key to
nature. It is our duty to protect the natural world.”
24. What did tending the baby squirrels relieve Polly of?
A. Social anxiety.
B. Academic pressure. C. Intense homesickness.
D. Life’s boredom.
25. The underlined word “susceptible” in the sentence probably means ________.
A. resistant to change
B. easily affected
C. extremely aggressive
D. totally indifferent
26. Why doesn’t Polly keep the farm neat and well arranged?
A. To attract the attention of the SSRS.
B. To safeguard a habitat free from disturbance.
C. To seek politicians’ economic support.
D. To make room for newly-planted trees.
27. What do Polly’s words mainly convey in the last paragraph?
A. Her pride in human superiority.
B. Her affection for red squirrels.
C. Her appreciation of the wildness.
D. Her awareness of shared responsibility.
【答案】24. C 25. B 26. B 27. D
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文,主要讲述波莉·普拉尔通过改造农场为红松鼠打造自然栖息地,助力苏格兰

24. 细节理解题。根据第二段“I became completely absorbed in them and they distracted me from missing
home too much,(我完全沉浸在它们身上,它们让我不再那么思念家乡)”可知,照料幼松鼠缓解了波莉
强烈的思乡之情,故选C。
25. 词义猜测题。根据第三段“In Polly’s view, the eventual release is often challenging because the newly
released squirrels still need feeding until they rewild themselves. Their susceptible character makes them
suffer from stress more seriously than other small creatures.(在波莉看来,最终的放归往往具有挑战性,因
为新放归的松鼠在重新适应野外生活之前仍需要喂食。它们的susceptible 性格使它们比其他小动物更
容易受到压力)”可知,该词描述的是这类生物的性格易受外界压力影响的特点,与easily affected 意义
相近,故选B。
26. 推理判断题。根据第四段“We arrange it intentionally to keep the living environment of squirrels original
and natural.(我们故意安排它,以保持松鼠的生活环境原始和自然)”可知,波莉不把农场打理得整洁有
