考生通过句间逻辑（因果、转折）
判断搭配合理性。
5. 重视情感类词汇的精准运用：描
述人物心理和情感的词汇（如
anxious、relieved、frustrated）占比
增加，需结合情节发展和人物性格
选择最贴合语境的词。

【2022 年全国乙卷】Young children across the globe enjoy playing games of hide and seek. For them,
there’s something highly exciting about ___21___ someone else’s glance and making oneself unable to be seen.
However, we all witness that preschool children are remarkably ___22___ at hiding. They often cover only
their eyes with their hands, leaving the rest of their bodies ___23___ .
For a long time, this ineffective hiding method was ___24___ as evidence that children are hopelessly

___26___ that idea.
We brought young children aged 2-4 into our Minds in Development Lab at USC. Each ___27___ sat down

the adult. Surprisingly, children replied that they couldn’t. The same ___30___ happened when the adult covered
her own mouth: ___31___ children said that they couldn’t ___32___ to her.
A number of ___33___ ruled out that the children misunderstood what they were being asked. The results
were clear: Our young subjects ___34___ the questions and knew ___35___ what was asked of them. Their
___36___ to the questions reflected their true ___37___ that “I can see you only if you can see me, too.” They
simply ___38___ mutual (相互的) recognition and regard. Our ___39___ suggest when a child “hides” by

She asked her mother why he did that and her mother said that the man was homeless and hungry. Hannah was very 37

think about how she could 38 , but, of course, there is not a lot one five-year-old can do to solve(解决) the

about the lives of homeless people 42 they first saw the homeless man. Her mother told her that if she did
something to change the problem that made her sad, she wouldn’t 43 as bad.
Hannah began to speak out about the homelessness in Manitoba and then in other provinces. She
hoped to 44 her message of hope and awareness. She started the Ladybug Foudation, an organization
aiming at getting rid of homelessness. She began to 45 ＂Big Bosses＂ lunches, where she would try to
persuade local business leaders to 46 to the cause. She also organized a fundraising(募捐) drive in
＂Ladybug Jars ＂ to collect everyone’s spare change during ＂Make Change ＂ month. More recently, the
foundation began another 47 called National Red Scarf Day — a day when people donate $20 and wear red
scarves in support of Canada’s 48 and homeless.
There is an emergency shelter in Winnipeg called ＂Hannah’s Place＂, something that Hannah is very 49 of.
Hannah’s Place is divided into several areas, providing shelter for people when it is so cold that 50 outdoors
can mean death. In the more than five years since Hannah began her activities, she has received a lot of 51 . For

【2016 年北京卷】A Race Against Death
It was a cold January in 1925 in Nome, Alaska. The town was cut off from the rest of the world due to heavy

Dr. Welch needed medicine as soon as possible to stop other kids from getting sick. 38 , the closest supply was

How could the medicine get to Nome? The town’s 39 was already full of ice, so it couldn’t come by ship.

From there, dogsled(狗拉雪橇) drivers—known as ＂mushers＂—would 45 it to Nome in a relay(接力).

snow blocked his 50 . He had to leave the trail (雪橇痕迹)to get around them. Conditions were so bad that it
was impossible for him to 51 the trail again. The only hope was Balto, Kaasen’s lead dog. Balto put his nose

【2016 年天津卷】The journey my daughter Cathy has had with her swimming is as long as it is beautiful.
Cathy suffered some terrible 16 in her early childhood. After years of regular treatment, she 17 became
healthy.
Two years ago, while Cathy was watching the Olympics, a dream came into her sweet little head — to be a
swimmer. Last summer, she wanted to 18 out local swim team. She practiced hard and finally 19 it. The
team practice, 20 , was a rough start. She coughed and choked and could hardly 21 her first few weeks.
Hearing her coughing bitterly one night, I decided to 22 her from it all. But Cathy woke me up early next
morning, wearing her swimsuit 23 to go! I told her she shouldn’t swim after a whole night’s coughing, but she
refused to 24 and insisted she go.
From that day on, Cathy kept swimming and didn’t 25 a single practice. She had a 26 intention within
herself to be the best she could be. My ten-year-old was growing and changing right before my eyes, into this
__27__ human being with a passion and a mission. There were moments of 28 of course: often she would be
the last swimmer in the race. It was difficult for Cathy to accept that she wasn’t a 29 — ever. But that didn’t
stop her from trying.
Then came the final awards ceremony at the end of the year. Cathy didn’t expect any award but was still there to
30 her friends and praise their accomplishments. As the ceremony was nearing the end, I suddenly heard the head
coach 31 , “The highest honor goes to Cathy!” Looking around, he continued, “Cathy has inspired us with her
32 and enthusiasm. 33 skills and talents bring great success, the most valuable asset(财富) one can hold is
the heart.”
It was the greatest 34 of my daughter’s life. With all she had been 35 in her ten years, this was the

【2016 年上海卷】In the 1960s, Douglas McGregor, one of the key thinkers in the art of management,
developed the mow famous Theory X and Theory Y. Theory X is the idea that people instinctively 51 work
and will do anything to avoid it. Theory Y is the view that everyone has the potential to find satisfaction in work.
In any case, despite so much evidence to the 52 , many managers still agree to Theory X. They believe,
53 , that their employees need constant supervision if they are to work effectively, or that decisions must be
imposed from 54 without consultation. This, of course, makes for authoritarian (专制的) managers.
Different cultures have different ways of 55 people. Unlike authoritarian management, some cultures,
particularly in Asia, are well known for the consultative nature of decision-making—all members of the department or
work group are asked to 56 to this process. This is management by the collective opinion. Many western
companies have tried to imitate such Asian ways of doing things, which are based on general 57 . Some
experts say that women will become more effective managers than men because they have the power to reach
common goals in a way that traditional 58 managers cannot.
A recent trend has been to encourage employees to use their own initiative, to make decisions on their own
without 59 managers first. This empowerment (授权) has been part of the trend towards downsizing: 60
the number of management layers in companies. After de-layering in this way, a company may be 61 with just
a top level of senior managers, front-line managers and employees with direct contact with the public.
Empowerment takes the idea of delegation (委托) much further than has 62 been the case. Empowerment and
delegation mean new forms of management control to 63 that the overall business plan is being followed, and
that operations become more profitable under the new organization, rather than less.
Another trend is off-site or 64 management, where teams of people linked by e-mail and the Internet
work on projects from their own houses. Project managers evaluate the 65 of the team members in terms of
what they produce for projects, rather than the amount of time they spend on them.
