College is an exciting milestone for a lot of people. 6 Luckily, we've rounded up the most important steps you'll need to take so you'll be ready to take on higher learning! Decide on the degree program you want to pursue. Choose a path that matches your interests. You’ll be most likely to succeed in college if you choose a major that you really like. 7 Then look at degree programs that will help you get a job in that field. You could also talk to people you know well, like your parents, advisor, or guidance counselor for advice. 8 Sign up for the basics when registration opens. Most colleges have the same entry-level courses for freshmen, regardless of what your major is. Sign in to the school’s registration website as soon as it opens to make sure you get the classes you want. Then use the course catalog (目录) to choose the electives that you want to take that semester. Decide where you’re going to live. Plan whether to live on or off campus. Living on campus will require you to pay for the accommodation expenses in the dormitory. However, some financial aid requires you to live on campus, and it can be cheaper to live in a dorm than to rent an apartment near the school. You’ll also have access to on-campus meals if you live in a dorm. 9 Study a map of campus. Map out where each of your classes will be. College campuses typically cover a vast area — different departments are often housed in different buildings, not to mention dorms, administration buildings, the bookstore, and the food court. 10 A．Register for classes. B．Check the course plan for each class. C．But there’s a lot that goes into getting ready for that first day. D．Plan visits to a few different colleges to really get a feel for them. E．And you won’t have to factor in transportation to your college each day. F．To avoid getting lost, it’s better to figure out the route for each class in advance.

Shift your bedtime. 12 Most people should aim for at least seven hours a night — so you’ll probably need to inch your bedtime forward as you transition (过渡) to a new schedule. You could fall straight into getting up at your desired time every day, knowing that you’ll feel tired during the transition but will naturally start falling asleep earlier within a few weeks. Relax before bed. Don’t watch TV or fiddle around (摆弄) with laptops right before you go to bed because they are shining light into your eyes and maybe even tricking your brain into thinking that it’s earlier than it really is. 13 Try not to do anything too stimulating before bed, and instead focus on relaxing activities like taking a bath or listening to comfortable music. 14 The secret to becoming a morning person is exposure to bright light. That’s because light suppresses (抑制) melatonin, a hormone (激素) that plays an important role in circadian (昼夜) rhythm. Natural light is the best, so get outside or open your bedroom window. Make mornings more pleasant. Try to schedule something to look forward to in the morning so that getting up feels like less hard. Perhaps a hot cup of coffee, sipped in silence, and the daily crossword puzzle. 15 A．Lighten up. B．Work up a sweat. C．It’s important to make sure you’re getting enough sleep. D．But many people have great difficulty in getting up early. E．It’s hard to stop surfing the internet late at night if you’re a night owl. F．Make sure the light around you is not too bright when it’s close to your bedtime. G．Knowing that something pleasant awaits can help you take that first painful step out of bed. 4.（2024届Z20名校联盟三联试题）Things To Remember On Your First Solo Travel Adventure If you’ve ever thought about just taking a trip yourself instead of waiting for someone to join you, you’re not alone. 16 However, do you count yourself among the many who have tried it?

This is your chance to do whatever you want whenever you want because this time, you’re running the show. Don’t be afraid to talk to random people. Though there is someone who poses a threat, it’s important to remember that not everyone is out to get you. 18 That’s because you’re a novelty, a person from another country who is visiting theirs. Therefore, instead of putting on your headphones or instantly seeing them as weirdos, use this spontaneous chat as a chance to meet the locals or get recommendations for things to do during your trip.

It is good for our vocabulary and literacy skills, teaching us math or science concepts and helping us learn history. Apart from those, reading has another benefit. Have you read a story and felt tears well up because of a character’s suffering? If so, that is because you have empathy (共情) for the character. 21 Research shows that human brains react differently to stories and facts. 22 In addition, your brain thinks you are in the story, which means you experience the characters’ thoughts as if they were real. 23 This skill, called emotional intelligence (EI), can make it easier to communicate and connect with people. Research shows that building this intelligence can lead to greater tolerance. One study found that people who read the Harry Potter novels, which tell stories about humans fighting against the evil, were less likely to behave unfairly towards powerless groups including refugees (难民). This theory of EI has been put into practice in schools. After reading The Boy at the Back of the Class, a story about a boy who is a refugee escaping from the war, students in St Michael’s High School were inspired to do a 10-mile walk for the non-profit organization — Refugee Action. 24 25 Not only are we more likely to engage in helpful behaviors when we feel empathy for other people, but others are also more likely to help us when they experience empathy. For society to develop, communicative and empathetic individuals really matter. A．In a way, all this increases our ability to read well. B．This permits people to limit their emotions that others are feeling. C．Many more areas of your brain light up when you’re enjoying a story. D．It also stimulated them to raise £1,000 for the homeless caused by war. E．Reading encourages us to empathize with others, which could be beneficial. F．Empathy helps you to read people’s emotions and work out the best way to respond. G．It helps you see into other people’s hearts and can be learned through various stories. 6.（2024届华大新高考联盟合肥市名校高三三模试题）Do you feel like there are too many things to do in a day, but not enough time to do them? If so, you’re experiencing what researchers call time poverty. 26 . The standard reply to “How are you?” is often “I’m so busy!” Many people find it increasingly difficult to spare time to see friends, pursue a hobby, or take a vacation. Some people even take great pride in how busy they are because it’s become a status symbol. 27 . Fortunately, here are specific steps we can take to feel more time affluent (富足的) and more socially connected. If you want a satisfying social life, buy time for it. You might pay to have a disliked housework done by others, get a direct flight instead of a cheaper one with a stopover, or pay extra to drive the fastest route home. 28 , like calling a friend or hanging out with your kids. Another way to get more time is to give it away. In one study, researchers asked people to devote part of their Saturday morning to doing something for themselves that they weren’t already planning to do or doing something for someone else. The people who gave away their time later felt like they had more of it. 29 . If you have too many things to do and not enough time to do them, try to cut back on some things. 30 .

Guochao conveys the cultural heritage and values of China. 36 . “China-chic” is rising, but what is it? The idea of guochao was first borrowed from some international brands, and began to win over Chinese consumers in 2015. 37 . In 2018, Chinese sportswear band Li-Ning presented its Wu Dao (the principles of Taoism) collection at the New York Fashion Week. It featured bright red color and Chinese characters. More brands have since followed, heralding (预示) the early period of guochao. 38 . This was a period when applications of big data, cloud computing, the Internet of Things, and 5G technology hit the market one after another. Domestic tech companies such as Huawei, Xiaomi, and DJI made headlines. In its third stage, guochao became more common in everyday life. Over the past decade, guochao has expanded from consumer goods to experiential products. As consumers are showing greater interest in cultural identity and creativity, productions like the TV program National Treasure, and the dance show Night Banquet in Tang Dynasty Palace integrate cultural and historical elements with the latest audio-visual technologies. 39 .

No matter how the trend evolves, Chinese people’s positive attitude toward the country’s development and their recognition of and growing confidence in national culture won’t change. 40 .

That’s the hot topic from the BMJ Open, which recently published the findings of a study in which researchers from Singapore explored the relationship between housework and health. 41 However, this was one of the first studies to test the relationship between housework and cognitive (认知的) function. To test out their theory, researchers enlisted 249 adults between the ages of 21 and 64. First, all the participants completed questionnaires asking how much housework they did, and how often they did it. 42 The cognitive test measured how quickly individuals could recall a memory and how long their attention lasted. The physical function test mainly involved their strength to avoid falls. The team found that the more housework they did, the better the adults scored on both cognitive and physical tests. 43 And, light housework was linked to a 12 percent higher score on memory recall. In addition, housework reduced sit-to-stand time and improved the strength of older adults. 44 For one thing, cleaning house—much as you might find it a boring thing—is more mentally inspiring than watching TV. If you’re painting the walls a different color, for example, you’re training your motor skills, coordination(协调), concentration, and memory. 45 So, what’s the takeaway? Stop putting off that big house project! Accomplish three things—mental activity, physical activity, and housework—for the price of one. A．Is Doing housework really good for your health? B．Why might housework improve mental and physical health? C．Then two tests were conducted to evaluate participants’ performance. D．Daily housework can also change depending on your individual needs. E．In fact, heavy housework was linked to a 14 percent higher attention score. F．It also improves blood flow to the brain and increases oxygen levels in the body. G．Previous studies have shown exercise can improve persons’ memory and attention. 10.（2024届湖北省武汉市华中师范大学附中高三五月高考模拟）When did we start walking for leisure? “Going for a walk” is a popular pastime among older and younger generations alike because of its well-known benefits for our physical and mental health. But you may be surprised to hear that wandering through pretty streets or hiking in mountainous have not always been considered leisure activities, according to Daniel Gale, a researcher of pedestrianism (步行运动). 46 Before that, it was just something people did out of necessity, some of whom even associated it with criminal activity. But for Charles Dickens, the famous English 19th Century author, marching through London streets and tramping around the countryside was a big part of the creative process. 47 He walked at an impressive pace of four miles per hour, according to his biography by Peter Ackroyd. 48 Perhaps you can take inspiration from another big-thinking wanderer. 19th Century American writer Henry David Thoreau took a slower approach, preferring to stroll over hills and fields and through the woods. He said that he could not preserve his health and spirits without walking at least four hours a day. This idea of taking a stroll to clear your head has survived through to the 21st Century. But have pedestrian manners remained the same? A 1780 article for the London Magazine advised pedestrians to avoid things such as hanging around in conversation and obstructing people behind you. 49 In this modern age, when many of us are tied to our desks and to our screens, try the simple act of stepping out onto the city pavements, or getting lost in nature. 50 Whether you see yourself more as a casual stroller or a purposeful strider (阔步者), why not build a habit out of it? A．What if speed-walking isn’t your thing? B．This may make all the difference to our wellbeing. C．Nowadays, we could add distracted phone-users. D．He brought the recreation of walking into fashion. E．Going on an urban walk is much more pleasant now. F．It was a time to absorb what was going on around him. G．In Britain, walking for fun wasn’t really a thing until the 1780s. 11.（2024届河南省名校联盟考前模拟大联考）The environment has never been more in need of a helping hand from us. Schools, in particular, are in a great position to educate future generations and make sure that good environmental habits are learned and adopted from an early age. So, ranging from energy efficiency to recycling, here are our tips to make your school more eco-friendly and sustainable. ☆ 51 Sending waste to landfill to slowly rot away isn’t the best use of the world’s resources. Plus, the space available for landfill is rapidly running out. Instead, boost recycling by providing appropriate and appealing facilities with clear signage (标识). 52 . ☆Turn off the lights and fit energy-efficient light bulbs Saving energy used for lighting is one of the easiest things that we can do. 53 . Turn off lights when they’re not needed. Signage asking people to turn off the lights can act as a useful reminder. ☆Go paperless 54 , with paper now being seen as outdated in many cases. This is good news for the environment, but it sometimes needs people to change how they do things. Look into options for creating and using fewer paper-based administration systems at school and think twice before printing or photocopying all those A4 pages, for example. ☆Reject plastic water bottles Recent television programs and campaigns have raised the issue of waste plastic towards the top of the environmental agenda. In some ways, this isn’t surprising because, again, it is relatively easy for everyone to make a difference to the environment with minimal effort. 55 . Just stop buying brand-new water bottles that are used once and then recycled, and reuse existing bottles and containers instead. A．Encourage and enable recycling B．The world is becoming ever more digital C．All it takes is a little bit of planning ahead D．Get everyone involved with clean-up days E．It will also save money on buying traditional materials F．Try to maximize the use of natural light as much as possible G．This is the key to preventing pollution of different waste streams 12.（2024届辽宁省沈阳市沈河区沈阳二中三模试题）There’s a misconception that if you are kind to yourself, then you are not going to be successful. But in fact, being kind to yourself can help you reach your goals. 56 It can leave you burnt out, not thinking clearly, and lacking in energy. Here are some strategies to help you learn how to be kind to yourself. 57 Do an honest assessment of your strengths and weaknesses. Figure out what you need to do about the self-improvement work. Are you struggling with depression or anxiety? Do you have trouble focusing on your work? If addressing these things on your own is too difficult, you may need the help of a mental health professional. Change the way you think about failure. 58 If you spend too much time fearing it, you will not live up to your potential. Every failure you have is an opportunity to learn. When you are faced with failure, you should ask yourself questions like, “What can I learn from this experience? ”and “How can I use this to make me better? ” Be selective about who you allow in your circle. Get rid of people who make you feel bad about yourself, or are hurtful toward you. It is great to have friends around you who care about you and want to see you improve yourself. Get rid of the ones who just enjoy picking on you. 59 Practice gratitude. It’s impossible to feel grateful and depressed at the same time. 60 Practicing gratitude is an important part of being kind to yourself because the benefits occur in so many different categories. Studies show that people who practice gratitude develop physical benefits like fewer pains, lower blood pressure, and better sleep. A．Manage your mind. B．Accept your weakness. C．The two emotions are at odds with each other. D．Taking poor care of yourself is not the key to success. E．You cannot succeed without having lots of experiences with failure.

Snow was falling, forcing the driver to stop repeatedly and get out to clear it. Each time the door opened, Mary suffered a gust of wind. She had a sudden good idea: why not make some kind of a rubber blade(刮片) that could be operated from inside the vehicle? 63 What’s more, the dishwasher dates back even earlier to the 19th century and to the dinner parties held by a lady called Josephine Cochrane.

Interestingly, innovation was in her blood: her grandfather had invented the steamboat. Lastly, one of the most important inventions of the 20th century must surely be the computer program.

College is an exciting milestone for a lot of people. 6 Luckily, we've rounded up the most important steps you'll need to take so you'll be ready to take on higher learning! Decide on the degree program you want to pursue. Choose a path that matches your interests. You’ll be most likely to succeed in college if you choose a major that you really like. 7 Then look at degree programs that will help you get a job in that field. You could also talk to people you know well, like your parents, advisor, or guidance counselor for advice. 8 Sign up for the basics when registration opens. Most colleges have the same entry-level courses for freshmen, regardless of what your major is. Sign in to the school’s registration website as soon as it opens to make sure you get the classes you want. Then use the course catalog (目录) to choose the electives that you want to take that semester. Decide where you’re going to live. Plan whether to live on or off campus. Living on campus will require you to pay for the accommodation expenses in the dormitory. However, some financial aid requires you to live on campus, and it can be cheaper to live in a dorm than to rent an apartment near the school. You’ll also have access to on-campus meals if you live in a dorm. 9 Study a map of campus. Map out where each of your classes will be. College campuses typically cover a vast area — different departments are often housed in different buildings, not to mention dorms, administration buildings, the bookstore, and the food court. 10 A．Register for classes. B．Check the course plan for each class. C．But there’s a lot that goes into getting ready for that first day. D．Plan visits to a few different colleges to really get a feel for them. E．And you won’t have to factor in transportation to your college each day. F．To avoid getting lost, it’s better to figure out the route for each class in advance.

Shift your bedtime. 12 Most people should aim for at least seven hours a night — so you’ll probably need to inch your bedtime forward as you transition (过渡) to a new schedule. You could fall straight into getting up at your desired time every day, knowing that you’ll feel tired during the transition but will naturally start falling asleep earlier within a few weeks. Relax before bed. Don’t watch TV or fiddle around (摆弄) with laptops right before you go to bed because they are shining light into your eyes and maybe even tricking your brain into thinking that it’s earlier than it really is. 13 Try not to do anything too stimulating before bed, and instead focus on relaxing activities like taking a bath or listening to comfortable music. 14 The secret to becoming a morning person is exposure to bright light. That’s because light suppresses (抑制) melatonin, a hormone (激素) that plays an important role in circadian (昼夜) rhythm. Natural light is the best, so get outside or open your bedroom window. Make mornings more pleasant. Try to schedule something to look forward to in the morning so that getting up feels like less hard. Perhaps a hot cup of coffee, sipped in silence, and the daily crossword puzzle. 15 A．Lighten up. B．Work up a sweat. C．It’s important to make sure you’re getting enough sleep. D．But many people have great difficulty in getting up early. E．It’s hard to stop surfing the internet late at night if you’re a night owl. F．Make sure the light around you is not too bright when it’s close to your bedtime. G．Knowing that something pleasant awaits can help you take that first painful step out of bed. 【答案】11．D 12．C 13．F 14．A 15．G 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了如何成为一个早起的人。 11．根据上文“Everyone knows that early to bed and early to rise is good for health.(每个人都知道早睡早起对健康有益)”及下文“Here are some ways you can focus on that can help you become a better morning person.(下面是一些你可以关注的方法，它们可以帮助你成为一个更好的早起的人)”可知，选项承上启下，说明早起对于很多人来说很困难。故D选项“但是很多人早起都有很大的困难”切题。故选D项。 12．根据标题“Shift your bedtime.(改变就寝时间)”及下文“Most people should aim for at least seven hours a night — so you’ll probably need to inch your bedtime forward as you transition (过渡) to a new schedule.(大多数人的目标应该是每晚至少睡7个小时，所以当你过渡到一个新的时间表时，你可能需要把你的就寝时间提前一点)”可知，改变就寝时间也要保证充足的睡眠，所以大多数人的目标应该是每晚至少睡7个小时。故C选项“确保充足的睡眠是很重要的”切题。故选C项。 13．根据下文“Try not to do anything too stimulating before bed, and instead focus on relaxing activities like taking a bath or listening to comfortable music.(睡前尽量不要做任何太刺激的事情，而是专注于放松的活动，比如洗澡或听舒适的音乐)”可知，选项与下文为并列关系说明保证睡前放松的措施。故F选项“在临近就寝时间时，确保周围的光线不要太亮”切题。故选F项。 14．根据下文“The secret to becoming a morning person is exposure to bright light.(成为早起者的秘诀是暴露在明亮的光线下)”可知，本段告诉我们要接触阳光。故A选项“接触阳光”切题。为本段的标题。故选A项 15．根据上文“Try to schedule something to look forward to in the morning so that getting up feels like less hard. Perhaps a hot cup of coffee, sipped in silence, and the daily crossword puzzle.(试着在早上安排一些值得期待的事情，这样起床就不那么困难了。也许是一杯热咖啡，静静地啜饮，还有每日的填字游戏)”可知，选项承接上文是对上文的总结。故G选项“知道有快乐的事情在等着你，可以帮助你走出痛苦的第一步。”切题。故选G项。 4.（2024届Z20名校联盟三联试题）Things To Remember On Your First Solo Travel Adventure If you’ve ever thought about just taking a trip yourself instead of waiting for someone to join you, you’re not alone. 16 However, do you count yourself among the many who have tried it?

It is good for our vocabulary and literacy skills, teaching us math or science concepts and helping us learn history. Apart from those, reading has another benefit. Have you read a story and felt tears well up because of a character’s suffering? If so, that is because you have empathy (共情) for the character. 21 Research shows that human brains react differently to stories and facts. 22 In addition, your brain thinks you are in the story, which means you experience the characters’ thoughts as if they were real. 23 This skill, called emotional intelligence (EI), can make it easier to communicate and connect with people. Research shows that building this intelligence can lead to greater tolerance. One study found that people who read the Harry Potter novels, which tell stories about humans fighting against the evil, were less likely to behave unfairly towards powerless groups including refugees (难民). This theory of EI has been put into practice in schools. After reading The Boy at the Back of the Class, a story about a boy who is a refugee escaping from the war, students in St Michael’s High School were inspired to do a 10-mile walk for the non-profit organization — Refugee Action. 24 25 Not only are we more likely to engage in helpful behaviors when we feel empathy for other people, but others are also more likely to help us when they experience empathy. For society to develop, communicative and empathetic individuals really matter. A．In a way, all this increases our ability to read well. B．This permits people to limit their emotions that others are feeling. C．Many more areas of your brain light up when you’re enjoying a story. D．It also stimulated them to raise £1,000 for the homeless caused by war. E．Reading encourages us to empathize with others, which could be beneficial. F．Empathy helps you to read people’s emotions and work out the best way to respond. G．It helps you see into other people’s hearts and can be learned through various stories. 【答案】21．G 22．C 23．F 24．D 25．E 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了研究表明阅读可以帮助培养同理心，这是有益的。 21．上文“Have you read a story and felt tears well up because of a character’s suffering? If so, that is because you have empathy (共情) for the character. (你是否读过一个故事，因为一个人物的痛苦而热泪盈眶？如果是这样，那是因为你对角色有共情。)”提到“共情”，结合诸选项信息可知，G选项“它可以帮助你看到别人的心，可以通过不同的故事来学习。”契合语境，该句就是对上文“empathy”进行说明和解释，“it”指代“empathy”，“stories”呼应上文“story”。故选G。 22．根据本段首句“Research shows that human brains react differently to stories and facts. (研究表明，人类大脑对故事和事实的反应是不同的。)”可知，本段主要谈论人的大脑会根据不同的故事和事实产生不同的反应；C选项“当你在欣赏一个故事时，你的大脑会有更多的区域被激活。”也是谈论当人阅读时大脑的反应，契合语境。故选C。 23．下文“This skill, called emotional intelligence (EI), can make it easier to communicate and connect with people. (这种技能被称为情商，可以让你更容易与人沟通和联系。)”讲述情感智力这项技能能够使沟通和与人建立联系更容易，F选项“同理心可以帮助你读懂别人的情绪并想出最佳方式来回应。”契合语境，下文This skill指代F项中的Empathy。故选F。 24．上文“After reading The Boy at the Back of the Class, a story about a boy who is a refugee escaping from the war, students in St Michael’s High School were inspired to do a 10-mile walk for the non-profit organization — Refugee Action. (在读完《教室后面的男孩》后，圣迈克尔高中的学生们受到启发，为非营利组织‘难民行动’进行了10英里的步行活动。这本书讲述了一个逃离战争的男孩的故事。)”进一步举例说在读了《教室后面的男孩》这本书后，圣迈克尔高中的学生的反应，选项D“这也促使他们为因战争而无家可归的人筹集了1000英镑。”也是在谈论反应：促使他们为因战乱而无家可归之人募集一千英镑，因而契合语境。故选D。 25．由本空所在位置可知，此处为段首句，总括全段信息，下文“Not only are we more likely to engage in helpful behaviors when we feel empathy for other people, but others are also more likely to help us when they experience empathy. For society to develop, communicative and empathetic individuals really matter. (当我们对他人感同身受时，我们不仅更有可能做出有益的行为，而且当他人感同身受时，他们也更有可能帮助我们。为了社会的发展，善于沟通和善解人意的个人真的很重要。)”谈论当我们对他人感同身受时，我们不仅更有可能做出有益的行为，而且当他人感同身受时，他们也更有可能帮助我们，是在讲述共情对人有益。由此可知，选项E“阅读鼓励我们去同情他人，这是有益的。”契合语境。故选E。 6.（2024届华大新高考联盟合肥市名校高三三模试题）Do you feel like there are too many things to do in a day, but not enough time to do them? If so, you’re experiencing what researchers call time poverty. 26 . The standard reply to “How are you?” is often “I’m so busy!” Many people find it increasingly difficult to spare time to see friends, pursue a hobby, or take a vacation. Some people even take great pride in how busy they are because it’s become a status symbol. 27 . Fortunately, here are specific steps we can take to feel more time affluent (富足的) and more socially connected. If you want a satisfying social life, buy time for it. You might pay to have a disliked housework done by others, get a direct flight instead of a cheaper one with a stopover, or pay extra to drive the fastest route home. 28 , like calling a friend or hanging out with your kids. Another way to get more time is to give it away. In one study, researchers asked people to devote part of their Saturday morning to doing something for themselves that they weren’t already planning to do or doing something for someone else. The people who gave away their time later felt like they had more of it. 29 . If you have too many things to do and not enough time to do them, try to cut back on some things. 30 . You can probably choose to slow down a little and make more time for casual chats with co-workers and unplanned get-togethers with friends.

If so, you’re experiencing what researchers call time poverty.(你是否觉得一天中有太多的事情要做，但却没有足够的时间去做?如果是这样，你正经历着研究人员所说的“时间贫困”。)”可知，空处应该和“时间贫困”这一主题相关。A项：Time poverty is a sign of the times.(时间贫困是时代的一个标志。)直接回应了首段中提到的“时间贫困”概念，并概括了文章的主题，符合语境。故选A。 27．根据上文“Some people even take great pride in how busy they are because it’s become a status symbol.(有些人甚至为自己有多忙而自豪，因为这已经成为一种地位的象征。)”和下文“Fortunately, here are specific steps we can take to feel more time affluent (富足的) and more socially connected.(幸运的是，这里有一些具体的步骤可以让我们感到时间更充裕，社会联系更紧密。)”可知，上文提到有人以时间贫困为骄傲，下文提出有解决这一问题的办法；空处和上文形成转折关系，说明时间贫困的弊端。G项：Yet, feeling short on time is associated with lower level of happiness and connection.(然而，感觉时间紧迫与较低的幸福感和联系水平有关。)符合语境。故选G。 28．本段主要介绍了解决时间贫困这一问题的建议。根据下文“like calling a friend or hanging out with your kids.(比如打电话给朋友或和孩子出去玩。)”可知，空处是在让人们把空出的时间投入到社交活动中。E项：Then invest your free time in something socially engaging.(然后把你的空闲时间投入到社交活动中去。)符合语境。故选E。 29．根据上文“In one study, researchers asked people to devote part of their Saturday morning to doing something for themselves that they weren’t already planning to do or doing something for someone else.

That’s the hot topic from the BMJ Open, which recently published the findings of a study in which researchers from Singapore explored the relationship between housework and health. 41 However, this was one of the first studies to test the relationship between housework and cognitive (认知的) function. To test out their theory, researchers enlisted 249 adults between the ages of 21 and 64. First, all the participants completed questionnaires asking how much housework they did, and how often they did it. 42 The cognitive test measured how quickly individuals could recall a memory and how long their attention lasted. The physical function test mainly involved their strength to avoid falls. The team found that the more housework they did, the better the adults scored on both cognitive and physical tests. 43 And, light housework was linked to a 12 percent higher score on memory recall. In addition, housework reduced sit-to-stand time and improved the strength of older adults. 44 For one thing, cleaning house—much as you might find it a boring thing—is more mentally inspiring than watching TV. If you’re painting the walls a different color, for example, you’re training your motor skills, coordination(协调), concentration, and memory. 45 So, what’s the takeaway? Stop putting off that big house project! Accomplish three things—mental activity, physical activity, and housework—for the price of one. A．Is Doing housework really good for your health? B．Why might housework improve mental and physical health? C．Then two tests were conducted to evaluate participants’ performance. D．Daily housework can also change depending on your individual needs. E．In fact, heavy housework was linked to a 14 percent higher attention score. F．It also improves blood flow to the brain and increases oxygen levels in the body. G．Previous studies have shown exercise can improve persons’ memory and attention. 【答案】41．G 42．C 43．E 44．B 45．F 【导语】本文为一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了，研究发现，做家务能提高记忆力，增强专注力。 41．根据空后“However, this was one of the first studies to test the relationship between housework and cognitive (认知的) function.(然而，这是第一个测试家务与认知功能之间的关系的研究。)”可知，空后提出这项研究是第一个测试家务与认知能力关系的研究，故G项“先前的研究表明了锻炼能提高人的记忆和专注力。”符合，先前的研究表明了锻炼能提高记忆力和专注力，然而此项研究却是第一个研究家务与认知能力的关系的研究，故选G项。 42．根据空前“First, all the participants completed questionnaires asking how much housework they did, and how often they did it.(首先，所有的参与者都完成了问卷调查，问他们做了多少家务，多久一次。)”可知，C项“然后，做了两项测试来评估参加者的表现。”是前文的顺义承接，首先所有参与者都做了调查问卷，然后做了两项测试来评估他们的表现，故选C项。 43．根据空后“And, light housework was linked to a 12 percent higher score on memory recall.(并且，轻的家务活与记忆力得分高出12%相关。)”可知，空后与本空构成并列关系，空后提出了light housework，故E项“事实上，重的家务活与专注力得分高出14%相关。”符合，本空提出重的家务活能提高专注力14%，空后并列提出轻的家务活能提高记忆力12%，故选E项。 44．根据空后“For one thing, cleaning house—much as you might find it a boring thing—is more mentally inspiring than watching TV.

But you may be surprised to hear that wandering through pretty streets or hiking in mountainous have not always been considered leisure activities, according to Daniel Gale, a researcher of pedestrianism (步行运动). 46 Before that, it was just something people did out of necessity, some of whom even associated it with criminal activity. But for Charles Dickens, the famous English 19th Century author, marching through London streets and tramping around the countryside was a big part of the creative process. 47 He walked at an impressive pace of four miles per hour, according to his biography by Peter Ackroyd. 48 Perhaps you can take inspiration from another big-thinking wanderer. 19th Century American writer Henry David Thoreau took a slower approach, preferring to stroll over hills and fields and through the woods. He said that he could not preserve his health and spirits without walking at least four hours a day. This idea of taking a stroll to clear your head has survived through to the 21st Century. But have pedestrian manners remained the same? A 1780 article for the London Magazine advised pedestrians to avoid things such as hanging around in conversation and obstructing people behind you. 49 In this modern age, when many of us are tied to our desks and to our screens, try the simple act of stepping out onto the city pavements, or getting lost in nature. 50 Whether you see yourself more as a casual stroller or a purposeful strider (阔步者), why not build a habit out of it? A．What if speed-walking isn’t your thing? B．This may make all the difference to our wellbeing. C．Nowadays, we could add distracted phone-users. D．He brought the recreation of walking into fashion. E．Going on an urban walk is much more pleasant now. F．It was a time to absorb what was going on around him. G．In Britain, walking for fun wasn’t really a thing until the 1780s. 【答案】46．G 47．F 48．A 49．C 50．B 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了散步的历史以及好处。 46．根据后文“Before that, it was just something people did out of necessity, some of whom even associated it with criminal activity.(在此之前，这只是人们出于需要而做的事情，有些人甚至把它与犯罪活动联系在一起)”可知，本句主要在说明散步流行起来的时间。故G选项“在英国，直到18世纪80年代，以散步为乐趣才真正成为一件事”符合语境，故选G。 47．根据上文“But for Charles Dickens, the famous English 19th Century author, marching through London streets and tramping around the countryside was a big part of the creative process. (但对19世纪英国著名作家查尔斯·狄更斯来说，在伦敦街头游行、在乡间漫步是创作过程的重要组成部分)”可知，上文提到著名作家查尔斯·狄更斯喜欢创作的时候散步，故本句承接上文，说明这么做的原因。故F选项“这是一个吸收周围发生的事情的时候”符合语境，故选F。 48．根据后文“Perhaps you can take inspiration from another big-thinking wanderer. 19th Century American writer Henry David Thoreau took a slower approach, preferring to stroll over hills and fields and through the woods. He said that he could not preserve his health and spirits without walking at least four hours a day.(也许你可以从另一个胸怀大志的流浪者身上得到启发。19世纪的美国作家亨利·大卫·梭罗采取了一种较慢的方式，他更喜欢在山丘、田野和树林里漫步。他说，如果每天不走至少四个小时，他就无法保持健康和精神)”可知，后文主要说明了漫步的放松方式，结合上一段“He walked at an impressive pace of four miles per hour, according to his biography by Peter Ackroyd.(根据彼得·阿克罗伊德的传记，他以每小时4英里的惊人速度行走)”提到了快速行走，故A选项“如果你不喜欢快走呢？”符合语境，故选A。 49．根据上文“This idea of taking a stroll to clear your head has survived through to the 21st Century. But have pedestrian manners remained the same? A 1780 article for the London Magazine advised pedestrians to avoid things such as hanging around in conversation and obstructing people behind you.(通过散步来清醒头脑的想法一直延续到21世纪。但是，行人的举止还保持不变吗？1780年《伦敦杂志》上的一篇文章建议行人避免在谈话中徘徊或妨碍身后的人)”可知，本句与上文并列，都是在说明导致行人散步行为发生改变的情况，故C选项“现在，我们可以加上分心的电话用户”符合语境，故选C。 50．根据上文“In this modern age, when many of us are tied to our desks and to our screens, try the simple act of stepping out onto the city pavements, or getting lost in nature.(在这个现代时代，当我们中的许多人都被束缚在办公桌和屏幕前时，试着走到城市的人行道上，或者迷失在大自然中)”以及后文“Whether you see yourself more as a casual stroller or a purposeful strider (阔步者), why not build a habit out of it?(无论你把自己看成是一个随意的漫步者还是一个有目的的步行者，为什么不养成一种习惯呢？)”可知，后文建议出去散步，可知本句是在说明散步的好处。故B选项“这可能会对我们的健康产生很大的影响”符合语境，故选B。 11.（2024届河南省名校联盟考前模拟大联考）The environment has never been more in need of a helping hand from us. Schools, in particular, are in a great position to educate future generations and make sure that good environmental habits are learned and adopted from an early age. So, ranging from energy efficiency to recycling, here are our tips to make your school more eco-friendly and sustainable. ☆ 51 Sending waste to landfill to slowly rot away isn’t the best use of the world’s resources. Plus, the space available for landfill is rapidly running out. Instead, boost recycling by providing appropriate and appealing facilities with clear signage (标识). 52 . ☆Turn off the lights and fit energy-efficient light bulbs Saving energy used for lighting is one of the easiest things that we can do. 53 . Turn off lights when they’re not needed. Signage asking people to turn off the lights can act as a useful reminder. ☆Go paperless 54 , with paper now being seen as outdated in many cases. This is good news for the environment, but it sometimes needs people to change how they do things. Look into options for creating and using fewer paper-based administration systems at school and think twice before printing or photocopying all those A4 pages, for example. ☆Reject plastic water bottles Recent television programs and campaigns have raised the issue of waste plastic towards the top of the environmental agenda. In some ways, this isn’t surprising because, again, it is relatively easy for everyone to make a difference to the environment with minimal effort. 55 . Just stop buying brand-new water bottles that are used once and then recycled, and reuse existing bottles and containers instead. A．Encourage and enable recycling B．The world is becoming ever more digital C．All it takes is a little bit of planning ahead D．Get everyone involved with clean-up days E．It will also save money on buying traditional materials F．Try to maximize the use of natural light as much as possible G．This is the key to preventing pollution of different waste streams 【答案】51．A 52．G 53．F 54．B 55．C 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了几点建议可以让你的学校更加环保和可持续。 51．由该题为段落小标题可知，应总结该段内容。该段下文“Sending waste to landfill to slowly rot away isn’t the best use of the world’s resources.

Here are some strategies to help you learn how to be kind to yourself. 57 Do an honest assessment of your strengths and weaknesses. Figure out what you need to do about the self-improvement work. Are you struggling with depression or anxiety? Do you have trouble focusing on your work? If addressing these things on your own is too difficult, you may need the help of a mental health professional. Change the way you think about failure. 58 If you spend too much time fearing it, you will not live up to your potential. Every failure you have is an opportunity to learn. When you are faced with failure, you should ask yourself questions like, “What can I learn from this experience? ”and “How can I use this to make me better? ” Be selective about who you allow in your circle. Get rid of people who make you feel bad about yourself, or are hurtful toward you. It is great to have friends around you who care about you and want to see you improve yourself. Get rid of the ones who just enjoy picking on you. 59 Practice gratitude. It’s impossible to feel grateful and depressed at the same time. 60 Practicing gratitude is an important part of being kind to yourself because the benefits occur in so many different categories. Studies show that people who practice gratitude develop physical benefits like fewer pains, lower blood pressure, and better sleep. A．Manage your mind. B．Accept your weakness.

To reduce loneliness, you should be open-minded and socially active. Meeting new friends will solve this issue. However, do not limit yourself by only having friends from your country, and try to hang out with other international newbies (新生). Planning your career Before attending any university, make sure you have a solid plan for your career path. Carefully map out your academic pathway.

(经过一年的学习和适应，以下是我的一些让美国生活更轻松的想法。)”可推断设空处应该是表示作者刚去美国时候的感受或者状态，所以G选项“当我刚到美国的时候，我甚至不知道如何正确地过马路。”符合题意，故选G。 72．根据下文“They’re essential records for your arrival and keep you safe in a new nation. At first, I was overwhelmed by the numerous pieces of paper. So I highly recommend that you have a separate worksheet to keep all your paperwork in one place.

To reduce loneliness, you should be open-minded and socially active. Meeting new friends will solve this issue. However, do not limit yourself by only having friends from your country, and try to hang out with other international newbies (新生). (当你第一次来到一个新的环境，你会感到孤独和想家。为了减少孤独感，你应该思想开放，积极参与社交活动。结识新朋友会解决这个问题。然而，不要把自己限制在只交本国的朋友，试着和其他国际新生一起出去玩。)”可知本段主要讲如何社交，所以A选项“人际关系”符合本段题意，故选A。 75．根据上文“Get advice from your parents, acquaintances, or people in the course of study you’re interested in. In school, you should see your academic advisor monthly to get the latest updates about your courses and workshop events. (向你的父母、熟人或在学习过程中你感兴趣的人寻求建议。在学校里，你应该每月去煎你的学术顾问，了解你的课程和研讨会活动的最新进展。)”可知这些都是你要为你的职业规划所做出的努力，所以D选项“总是检查你在正确的轨道上。”紧扣上文，也是上文这么做的原因，故选D。 ( 2 )原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！ ( 1 )原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！ 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
