专题08阅读理解七选五 2024年高考真题 Passage1 【新课标Ⅰ卷】Not all great writers are great spellers. If you want to be published, it's vital to submit a perfect, professionally presented manuscript (原稿). ____36____ No editor is likely to tolerate a writer who does not take the trouble to spell words correctly. I keep two reference books close-by on my desk: dictionary and thesaurus (同义词词典). I don't trust my laptop's spellchecker. ____37____ Of course, these days there are plenty of online dictionaries and thesauruses, but I'm old-fashioned enough to prefer a hard cover and pages I can leaf through with my fingers. I use the Concise Oxford Dictionary and the Collins Thesaurus. ____38____ It should give you a precise definition of each word, thus differentiating it from other words whose meanings are similar, but not identical. It will also usually show how the word is pronounced. In addition, I have an old two-volume copy of the Shorter Oxford Dictionary, picked up a few years ago in a bookshop sale for just 99 pence. Of course, with its 2,672 pages, it's not exactly short. It contains around 163,000 words, plus word combinations and idiomatic phrases. ____39____ However, if I need to check the origin of a word or to look up examples of its usage, there's nothing better. For well over a hundred years the most influential English dictionary was Samuel Johnson's Dictionary of the English Language published in 1755. "To make dictionaries is dull (乏味) work," wrote Johnson, illustrating one definition of "dull". ____40____ A few minutes spent casting your eye over a page or two can be a rewarding experience. A. I don't often use this dictionary. B. It takes no account of the context. C. But I still don't want to replace them. D. But a dictionary can be a pleasure to read. E. Of course, a dictionary is not only for spelling. F. That means good grammar and no spelling mistakes. G. Dictionaries don't always give you enough information. Passage2 【新课标ⅠⅠ卷】Overtourism Is For Real: How Can You Help? Travel promotes understanding, expands our minds, makes us better people, and boosts local economies and communities, but the rapid growth of travel has led to overtourism in certain regions and destinations. ___16___ Certainly not. The loss of what travel offers would be unacceptable in today’s world. Here are some tips on making wise decisions to minimize pressure on the places we visit and improve our experience. ●Choose mindfully. Overvisited destinations are that way for a reason: they’re special. With so many online posts featuring the same places, it’s easy to feel like you’re missing out. Go somewhere only when the landscape, culture or food deeply draws you. ___17___ ●Get creative. The best way to ease pressure on over-touristed destinations is to go somewhere else. Though overtourism is described as a problem affecting the entire world, it’s actually concentrated to a small number of extremely popular spots. That means you have tons of less-visited options to choose from. ___18___ Why not try a regional alternative or check out a popular destination’s lesser-known sights? ● ___19___ Minimize impact and maximize experience by skipping major holidays or rush hour. You’ll compete with fewer tourists, save money, experience a different side of a popular place, and boost the economy when tourism is traditionally slower. Visiting a place that others call home is a privilege(荣幸). Do your part to preserve what makes a destination special in the first place. ___20___ You may be amazed how much closer you’ll feel to the people there. A. Visit during off-peak times. B. So, should we stop traveling? C. Travel for you and no one else. D. Can overtourism be avoided then? E. You can still find relatively undiscovered places. F. You’ll find yourself virtually alone, or close to it. G. Consider giving back to the communities you’re visiting. Passage3 【2024全国甲卷】What is moderation (适度)? Basically, it means eating only as much food as your body needs. You should feel satisfied at the end of a meal, but not too full. ____16____ But it doesn't mean saying goodbye to the foods you love. Take your time. It's important to slow down and think about food as something nutritious rather than just something to eat in between meetings. ____17____ It actually takes a few minutes for your brain to tell your body that it has had enough food, so eat slowly and stop eating before you feel full. Eat with others whenever possible. Eating alone, “specially in front of the TV or computer, often leads to mindless overeating. And be careful about the foods you keep at hand. It's more challenging to eat in moderation if you have unhealthy snacks at the ready, like cookies. ____18____ Control emotional (情绪的) eating. ____19____ Many of us also turn to food to deal with unpleasant emotions such as sadness, loneliness, or boredom. But by learning healthier ways to manage emotions, you can regain control over the food you eat and your feelings. ____20____ A healthy breakfast can start your metabolism (新陈代谢), while eating small, healthy meals keeps your energy up all day. Avoid eating late at night. Try to eat dinner earlier and fast for 14 — 16 hours until breakfast the next morning. Studies suggest that eating only when you're most active and giving your digestive system a long break each day may help to regulate weight. A Eat properly throughout the day. B. We don't always eat just to satisfy hunger. C. Don't swallow a meal on the way to work. D. Most of us need to double the amount we eat. E. Instead, surround yourself with healthy choices. F. For many of us, moderation means eating less than we do now. G. That won't lead to cheating or giving up on your new eating plan. Passage4 Passage5 Passage6 2024年名校模拟题 Passage1 （2024·湖北黄冈·三模）In our modern economy, accelerated learning can be crucial for success. Learning faster means gaining more knowledge—quicker than others. 16 Anyone can learn from them and accelerate their learning process with the following techniques. Combine Learning Styles That Play to Your Strengths When you aim to accelerate your learning, what you choose to learn should not be limited to a curriculum or classroom structure. 17 Different materials along with your learning style can accelerate or slow down your comprehension process. The best learning style is the one that makes it easier to process, or comprehend ideas, and subjects faster. Once you know your learning strengths and weaknesses, you can choose learning strategies that play to your strengths. Seek First to Understand The Basic Structure of The Topic You Choose 18 So you need to seek first to understand the basics. In other words, you have to get to know the tree’s root, trunk, then branch out from there. Don’t start from the branches or the leaves, pursue the root and work your way to the topic. Therefore, whatever topic you choose to learn or study, just start with the basics. Give Yourself Plenty of Time in Both “Focused” And “Diffused”(分散的)Modes Normally, the human brain is not meant to stay in “focused” mode for hours at a time. 19 Consequently, when your brain is active for a very long time, you’re actually blocking your access to the diffused mode — a more relaxed state. Therefore, diffused mode is just as valuable as the focused mode. So — just take breaks, let your mind wander, think about other things, and give your brain plenty of time to make better connections. 20 A．You can benefit a lot from staying focused. B．Smart learners don’t have any special secrets. C．You should try to choose whatever you like best. D．Every topic or subject has a logical structure to it. E．Then you can learn better by imposing breaks on yourself. F．Long-lasting attention to a single task can block memory and recall. G．You can practically choose content from many sources, experts, and authors. Passage2 （2024·河南·模拟预测）How to Create the Perfect Spring Planter Spring containers are an easy solution for jazzing up a colorless balcony and boring corners of any garden at this time of year. 16 Choosing the right container is important. Always think about the style of your garden. 17 They are solid pots for spring as they don’t blow over in those early spring winds. Check that the pot has a large drainage (排水) hole to ensure that the soil drains well, but always cover it with a crock (like a piece from a broken flower planter) so that the soil doesn’t block the hole and create problems with drainage later down the line. Choosing the right compost (堆肥) is the key to the success of any planting. I think it’s best to use soil-based compost so that the soil does not become too heavy or waterlogged, especially in spring when we could have plenty of showers. 18 And too much water in the soil will freeze, preventing the plants from taking up the vital water. Plant combinations are important, so always think about mixes which will last as well as annual and perennial (多年生的) ones. 19 A bunch of pots forces the eye to look around and take in each pot and plant combination. A nice option is planting summer flowers like Dahlia or Lily to create a summer impact. 20 It can be achieved by using tall plants. If you don’t have a tall plant then you can always raise your pot off the ground with old house bricks or decorative pot feet, or use steps in your garden to create interest and drama. A pleasant smell is always a lovely addition to a space as well as wildlife. Select the right plant for your location in your garden－sun or shade-loving. A．I like good, weighty planters. B．It can still be frosty right up to May. C．And besides, they are so easy to care for. D．I also like to group pots together in different sizes. E．Capitalize on those variations to help choose companions. F．You may find some of these plants in smaller pots or even multi-packs. G．Height is important to think about when you’re designing your arrangement. Passage3 （2024·重庆沙坪坝·模拟预测）A lot of people assume the more work they put in at the gym, and the longer and harder they push themselves, the better their results will be. 16 But if you want to get the best gains, the key is to focus on the quality of the work rather than the quantity. Your body is capable of making only tiny adaptations and improvements at any one time. Once you've given it enough push to make these changes, any additional work you do after that point won't be making you any better. 17 This is because you'll need longer to recover afterwards. Besides, you won't feel fresh when you start your next session. Ideally, it's just enough to do the smallest amount of work required to promote growth in every workout. 18 Thus the minimum amount of exercise brings the maximum physical gains. 19 For example, if a new gym-goer wants to get stronger, he might start a squat (深蹲) workout, which is made up of ten steps, each having five repetitions. In theory, it's a sensible way for building strength. If he's only attempted three steps in his previous exercise, it's far from enough. The fourth step would push him past his previous limit and force adaptation. But the subsequent steps are meant for more professional people. 20 As a general rule, regardless of your experience, aim to only increase the volume of any exercise by one step from workout to workout. A．It seems logical. B．Instead, it'll harm your progress. C．It's natural that you may want to keep fit. D．After that, you can stop exercising during the day. E．Only in this way can you enjoy the benefit of exercise. F．They would just increase the chance of injury for beginners. G．How much exercise you need to do depends on your current fitness level. Passage4 （2024·重庆·模拟预测）This summer, climate change continues to push Earth’s weather to extremes. 16 We invite some experts to discuss the science behind exercising in the heat, how to keep your body safe, and what to do if you suspect you or someone you’re with has heat exhaustion. 17 If you had a heavy meal like a cheeseburger, you’ll want to wait two to three hours before your hot outdoor exercise, since that fat and protein-rich meal will take even longer to move through the digestive process. Should you eat after that hot run? No. You can hydrate right away, but wait until you’ve cooled off to eat. That’s because digesting food will delay getting your body back to its usual temperature. Protect your skin — it’s the body’s cooling system. Your skin and related tissues are incredibly designed to move warm blood away from your core to keep your vital organs cool. Any damage to your skin or the underlying tissue prevents your body from being able to air condition itself. To protect your skin, start with sunscreen. 18 . Wear materials that will help your body breathe. 19 Wear sweat-wicking athletic clothing that allows your skin to cool. Avoid materials like cotton that basically keep the heat close to your body. Hydrate before, during and after exercise. Dehydration can really happen to you. 20 Besides, keep drinking while you’re working out. A．Don’t eat right before you head out. B．Try more heat-friendly forms of exercise. C．The type of suitable clothing you wear can also help you stay cool. D．But high outside temperatures in a dry climate can also be dangerous. E．Is a daytime run or bike ride in hot summer weather OK for our bodies? F．And consider wearing sun-protective clothing that blocks the sun, and include a hat. G．Make sure you are drinking water at least an hour before you head out to exercise. Passage5 （2024·湖南·二模）The first way we learn to communicate is through body language — our facial expressions, our gestures and, when we’re older, our postures. Even after we figure out how to speak, this non-verbal communication still exerts (施加) a powerful and often unconscious influence over our interactions, people’s first impressions of us and even our impressions of ourselves. 16 . Change how you feel To de-stress: Forcing a smile can make running easier and tough tasks less stressful. One 2012 experiment found that a grin makes holding your hand in ice water more bearable. To feel more confident: 17 . Striking this so-called power pose shortly before an interview or athletic contest can be particularly powerful for women, who tend to sit and stand in a way that takes up less space. To persevere: 18 . In a 2008 study, students who sat with their arms crossed kept working on an impossible problem nearly twice as long as those with their arms at their sides. Change how others feel 19 : Studies show that holding someone’s gaze may help people think you’re trustworthy and intelligent. According to body language expert Carol Kinsey Goman, it can also make people think you’re a good listener. To foster connections: Mirroring the facial expressions and gestures of the person you’re talking to can help them feel more comfortable. One 2011 experiment found this is an effective sales skill. To engage or disengage: If you want to let someone know you’re listening, sit facing them with your full body, knees and shoulders pointed at them. 20 . A．To come across as sincere B．But if you want to spread tension, angle your body slightly away — facing full-on is confrontational (对抗性的) when things get heated C．Here’s how to use body language to everyone’s benefit D．Making your index finger (食指) and middle finger crossed can help you gather strength E．To inform people F．Standing like Wonder Woman — legs apart, hands on hips, chest up — may make you feel more powerful G．Crossing your arms across your chest can help you persist in solving a problem Passage6 （2024·广东广州·三模）The teenage years are a transformative period marked by great physical, psychological, and emotional changes. 16 They refer to the feelings that arise during interactions with others, such as gratitude, shame, sympathy, guilt, and pride. Understanding and managing social emotions can help develop teenagers’ identities. Teenagers experience a wide range of emotions from social interactions, which significantly influences their self-understanding and social awareness. In the process, they learn to understand, and appropriately respond to both their own emotions and those of others. 17 In academic settings, social emotional competencies like self-regulation, motivation, and social awareness directly impact a teenager’s ability to learn, participate, and engage in school activities. 18 Teenagers with strong social emotional skills are better equipped to handle stress, resist peer pressure, and avoid risky behaviors, reducing the likelihood of developing mental health issues. Learning social emotions involves a combination of personal experience, guidance, and formal education. 19 This environment influences teenagers’ earliest understanding of how to communicate and manage their emotions. They feel safe and supportive to express their emotions freely and learn to manage them without fear of judgment. Schools also play a significant role through social emotional learning programs that teach these skills in a structured environment. Community involvement, extracurricular activities, and peer (同伴) interactions offer additional opportunities for teenagers to practice and refine their social emotional skills. 20 It contributes to a teenager’s ability to manage their own emotions, understand others’ emotions, and face social complexities. This learning is a cornerstone for shaping their identity, influencing their interpersonal relationships, academic success, mental health, and future life outcomes. A．What exactly are social emotions? B．The journey into mature emotion is quite easy. C．Social emotion learning for teenagers is essential. D．Central to this phase is the concept of social emotions. E．This helps shape their own personal principles and beliefs. F．Families play a crucial role in modeling and developing these skills. G．Moreover, social emotional skills are closely linked to mental health. Passage7 （2024·重庆·三模）In modern life, stress has become an unwelcome companion for many. According to a survey conducted in 2023, 91 percent of adults reported experiencing high or extreme levels of stress. 16 One alternative gaining popularity is wellness tourism, praised as the fastest-growing sector in the travel industry. The change of scenery and adventurous nature of an active holiday can lead to an overall change in the dominant chemicals in our brain, triggering releases of dopamine (多巴胺). 17 We often see dopamine travel as a complete distraction from everyday life, which promotes meaning or growth. Besides, such a form of travel has been proven to increase feelings of well-being, as well as increases in general activity level. 18 This is particularly present for outdoor trips such as mountaineering or skiing where a sense of accomplishment can lead to long lasting increases in self worth and confidence. 19 Oliver Brendon, CEO of Attraction Tickets.com adds: “The dopamine travel trend is centered on immersing yourself in exciting landscapes, which is why the brightly-colored theme parks such as Walt Disney World and Universal Orlando Resort make such popular destinations.” For more mindful moments, surrounding yourself in nature can create a sense of adventure and escape unlike traditional wellness getaways. 20 Going sailing on the tranquil lazy river at Discovery Cove is another wise choice. A．Consider choosing experiences like swimming with sea life. B．Try riding the popular roller coaster at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. C．These benefits have been reported as lasting up to a long post-holiday time. D．This effect of certain holidays has coined a new travel trend — dopamine travel. E．As we struggle with this stress, promoting our well-being has become most significant. F．It’s evident that we are increasingly seeking comfort and refreshment in holiday experiences. G．Just as other dopamine trends encourage bright colors, our environments also play a, vital role. Passage8 （2024·黑龙江吉林·模拟预测）Who can imagine life today without an Automated Teller Machine (ATM)? They are available in considerable numbers throughout the world. The first ATM was the brainchild of an enterprising Turkish-American inventor Luther George Simjian. When the idea of an automated banking machine struck him, he registered 20 patents before any bank agreed to give it a trial run. It is easy to assume that the inventor of such a popular machine was laughing all the way to the bank. 16 Within six months of its operation in New York in 1939, the device was removed due to lack of customer acceptance. It was not until 1967, nearly 30 years later, that Barclays Bank, in a careful launch, rolled out a self-service machine in London, England, which proved successful. 17 The first cash machine relied on customers’ use of prepaid tokens (代币) to get envelopes with a fixed amount of cash inside. 18 The banks’ principle was seemingly customer service. But it would be foolish to minimize the many advantages that cash machines provided to the banks themselves. By the late 1970s, the highest fixed cost for the average large bank was its branches. The greatest variable cost and loss to profits were its staff. Bank accounts swiftly recognized that self-service operations could reduce bank branch staff cost by70 percent. Experts quickly determined that public acceptance of ATMs counted on convenience, simplicity, speed, security and trust. 19 For maximum efficiency, ATMs had to be located near public transport or in a shopping mall, not at a branch. The busier and more crowded the location, obviously, the better. Now, roughly 75 percent of all cash provided by banks to their customers comes from cash machines. 20 . Public acceptance of deposits (存款) by machine was significantly slower than customers’ usage of ATMs for withdrawals. In general, it seems that customers sometimes still prefer and trust an over-the-counter transaction (交易) for deposits. A．Location, in particular, was a key factor. B．His cash machine, however, didn’t prove durable. C．The device was relatively primitive, at least by today’s standards. D．However, cash machines posed some interesting, unanswered questions. E．An interesting factor was the issue of bio-statistics for customer identification. F．Devices originally dismissed by the public are now recognized as essential institutions. G．Soon afterwards, many other banks became admittedly champions of the cash machine. Passage9 （2024·陕西榆林·一模）How to Start a Garden in 2024? Gardening is a powerful outlet for creativity, enabling you to surround yourself with beauty. It can provide homegrown food for your family, keep you in touch with nature and is also an invaluable form of exercise. In short, gardening is beneficial to both body and soul. 16 . It all starts with good soil. Whatever you’re growing, fertile soil is the key. 17 . It promotes root development, supplying nutrients for plant growth. Grow vegetables that keep on giving. 18 , choose ones you can harvest more than once. Lettuce and basil are quick and easy to grow. They’ll replace their leaves every time you cut them. Vegetables like these mean continuous harvests, which is huge for keeping spirits high. 19 . Some plants will grow tall and some will grow closer to the ground. Tall plants will shade shorter plants and prevent them getting needed sunshine. Also, give little seedlings plenty of room to stretch and grow. If they grow too close together, don’t be afraid to thin seedlings. Save money with seeds and cuttings. Buying all of your plants from the garden center is expensive. 20 . Reach out to friends and family who garden and ask them to share spare seeds with you. Also check to see if they have any plants you can take cuttings from. It takes longer than buying young plants, but it is definitely more satisfying and you will learn so much. A．If you need some help B．Size up your growing space C．If you’re a newcomer D．Here are some essential tips for beginners in gardening E．Choose a container size appropriate for what you are growing F．Investing in rich soil initially create s a suitable environment G．However, you can grow a huge range of plants from seeds or cuttings Passage10 （2024·江西南昌·三模）In order to grow and be better than before , you must learn to be emotionally intelligent. Here are some strategies to help you become emotionally mature! You cannot change others. Everyone else is entitled to their own beliefs and opinions. It is completely normal. Keeping that in mind, it is better if you understand that you cannot change others, no matter how hard you try. Even if you try changing others and their feelings, you will only be hurting yourself in the process. 16 People interact with us like we are mind readers sometimes. 17 This can be extremely painful. You need to communicate your needs to the other person, and they need to do the same with you. Never rely on expectations, which will only make you feel disappointed. Share your needs with your loved ones and see the positive changes. So communicate your needs. It is necessary to take responsibility for your actions. Just like your words, you need to take full responsibility for your actions. Many people make silly excuses and don’t take responsibility for their actions. That is where they hurt others and themselves. 18 It won’t bring your self-respect down, and it will actually raise you as a person. 19 So it is wise to avoid negative people. If you are surrounded by negative people that only bring others down, then you will always feel uncomfortable. If you are surrounded by happy people, you will always be delighted. Keep away from people who emotionally control others. 20 In order to be emotionally intelligent, you must have a supporting partner by your side. A．You need to mind whatever you do. B．You are known by the company you keep. C．Just as you try to be a mind reader, others expect so. D．The best course of action would be to change yourself. E．Whenever you feel something like that, cut ties with them. F．Your partner would want you to know exactly what they want. G．If you make a mistake and affect others negatively, apologize immediately. 原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！6 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 专题08阅读理解七选五 2024年高考真题 Passage1 【新课标Ⅰ卷】Not all great writers are great spellers.

Learning faster means gaining more knowledge—quicker than others. 16 Anyone can learn from them and accelerate their learning process with the following techniques. Combine Learning Styles That Play to Your Strengths When you aim to accelerate your learning, what you choose to learn should not be limited to a curriculum or classroom structure. 17 Different materials along with your learning style can accelerate or slow down your comprehension process. The best learning style is the one that makes it easier to process, or comprehend ideas, and subjects faster. Once you know your learning strengths and weaknesses, you can choose learning strategies that play to your strengths. Seek First to Understand The Basic Structure of The Topic You Choose 18 So you need to seek first to understand the basics. In other words, you have to get to know the tree’s root, trunk, then branch out from there. Don’t start from the branches or the leaves, pursue the root and work your way to the topic. Therefore, whatever topic you choose to learn or study, just start with the basics. Give Yourself Plenty of Time in Both “Focused” And “Diffused”(分散的)Modes Normally, the human brain is not meant to stay in “focused” mode for hours at a time. 19 Consequently, when your brain is active for a very long time, you’re actually blocking your access to the diffused mode — a more relaxed state. Therefore, diffused mode is just as valuable as the focused mode. So — just take breaks, let your mind wander, think about other things, and give your brain plenty of time to make better connections. 20 A．You can benefit a lot from staying focused. B．Smart learners don’t have any special secrets. C．You should try to choose whatever you like best. D．Every topic or subject has a logical structure to it. E．Then you can learn better by imposing breaks on yourself. F．Long-lasting attention to a single task can block memory and recall. G．You can practically choose content from many sources, experts, and authors. 【答案】16．B 17．G 18．D 19．F 20．E 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一些技巧以帮助人们更加有效地进行快速学习。 16．根据空后的“Anyone can learn from them and accelerate their learning process with the following techniques. (任何人都可以向他们学习，并通过以下技巧加速他们的学习过程)”可推测，空处提到了一些会快速学习的人。选项B“Smart learners don’t have any special secrets.(聪明的学习者没有什么特别的秘密。)”中的“Smart learners”与下文的“them”保持一致，内容上也自然引出下文内容。故选B。 17．根据标题“Combine Learning Styles That Play to Your Strengths (结合能发挥你优势的学习方式)”以及空前的“When you aim to accelerate your learning, what you choose to learn should not be limited to a curriculum or classroom structure. (当你的目标是加速你的学习，你选择学习不应该局限于课程或课堂结构)”可知，我们可以选择学习课程或课堂之外的内容；而下文“Different materials along with your learning style can accelerate or slow down your comprehension process.(根据你的学习方式选择不同的材料可以加速或减缓你的理解过程)”则指出不同的学习内容选择不同的学习方式。选项G“You can practically choose content from many sources, experts, and authors. (实际上，您可以从许多来源、专家和作者中选择内容。)”与上下文内容一致，指的是选择不同的学习内容，并采用适当的学习方式。故选G。 18．根据下文“So you need to seek first to understand the basics. In other words, you have to get to know the tree’s root, trunk, then branch out from there. Don’t start from the branches or the leaves, pursue the root and work your way to the topic. Therefore, whatever topic you choose to learn or study, just start with the basics.(所以你需要先了解基础知识。换句话说，你必须了解树的根，树干，然后从那里伸出树枝。不要从枝叶入手，要追根溯源，直达主题。因此，无论你选择学习或研究什么主题，都要从基础开始)”可知，我们要了解自己所学内容的结构。选项D“Every topic or subject has a logical structure to it.(每个话题或主题都有一个逻辑结构。)”自然引出下文内容，指出每个话题或主题都有一个逻辑结构，所以我们应该了解自己所学内容的逻辑结构。故选D。 19．根据空前内容“Normally, the human brain is not meant to stay in “focused” mode for hours at a time.(正常情况下，人类的大脑不会一次保持几个小时的“专注”模式)”可知，人类大脑不会一直保持专注。选项F“Long-lasting attention to a single task can block memory and recall.(长时间专注于一项任务会阻碍记忆和回忆。)”与上文内容一致，指的是人类大脑不能一直保持专注，同时引出下文“Consequently, when your brain is active for a very long time, you’re actually blocking your access to the diffused mode—a more relaxed state.(因此，当你的大脑长时间处于活跃状态时，你实际上是在阻碍你进入扩散模式——一种更放松的状态)”。故选F。 20．根据上文内容“Therefore, diffused mode is just as valuable as the focused mode. So—just take breaks, let your mind wander, think about other things, and give your brain plenty of time to make better connections.(因此，扩散模式和聚焦模式一样有价值。所以，只要休息一下，让你的思想游离，想想其他事情，给你的大脑足够的时间来建立更好的联系)”可知，上文提出我们应该劳逸结合。选项E“Then you can learn better by imposing breaks on yourself.(然后你可以通过给自己一些休息时间来学得更好。)”与上文内容相符，指出休息会让学习效果更好。故选E。 Passage2 （2024·河南·模拟预测）How to Create the Perfect Spring Planter Spring containers are an easy solution for jazzing up a colorless balcony and boring corners of any garden at this time of year. 16 Choosing the right container is important. Always think about the style of your garden. 17 They are solid pots for spring as they don’t blow over in those early spring winds. Check that the pot has a large drainage (排水) hole to ensure that the soil drains well, but always cover it with a crock (like a piece from a broken flower planter) so that the soil doesn’t block the hole and create problems with drainage later down the line. Choosing the right compost (堆肥) is the key to the success of any planting. I think it’s best to use soil-based compost so that the soil does not become too heavy or waterlogged, especially in spring when we could have plenty of showers. 18 And too much water in the soil will freeze, preventing the plants from taking up the vital water. Plant combinations are important, so always think about mixes which will last as well as annual and perennial (多年生的) ones. 19 A bunch of pots forces the eye to look around and take in each pot and plant combination. A nice option is planting summer flowers like Dahlia or Lily to create a summer impact. 20 It can be achieved by using tall plants. If you don’t have a tall plant then you can always raise your pot off the ground with old house bricks or decorative pot feet, or use steps in your garden to create interest and drama. A pleasant smell is always a lovely addition to a space as well as wildlife. Select the right plant for your location in your garden－sun or shade-loving. A．I like good, weighty planters. B．It can still be frosty right up to May. C．And besides, they are so easy to care for. D．I also like to group pots together in different sizes. E．Capitalize on those variations to help choose companions. F．You may find some of these plants in smaller pots or even multi-packs. G．Height is important to think about when you’re designing your arrangement. 【答案】16．C 17．A 18．B 19．D 20．G 【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文介绍了打造完美春季花盆的技巧，包括挑选与花园风格匹配的稳固花盆、使用土壤基质堆肥确保良好排水、植物搭配考虑持久性与季节性，以及通过高低错落布置增加观赏性。 16．由上文“Spring containers are an easy solution for jazzing up a colorless balcony and boring corners of any garden at this time of year.

Your body is capable of making only tiny adaptations and improvements at any one time. Once you've given it enough push to make these changes, any additional work you do after that point won't be making you any better. 17 This is because you'll need longer to recover afterwards. Besides, you won't feel fresh when you start your next session. Ideally, it's just enough to do the smallest amount of work required to promote growth in every workout. 18 Thus the minimum amount of exercise brings the maximum physical gains. 19 For example, if a new gym-goer wants to get stronger, he might start a squat (深蹲) workout, which is made up of ten steps, each having five repetitions. In theory, it's a sensible way for building strength. If he's only attempted three steps in his previous exercise, it's far from enough. The fourth step would push him past his previous limit and force adaptation. But the subsequent steps are meant for more professional people. 20 As a general rule, regardless of your experience, aim to only increase the volume of any exercise by one step from workout to workout. A．It seems logical. B．Instead, it'll harm your progress. C．It's natural that you may want to keep fit. D．After that, you can stop exercising during the day. E．Only in this way can you enjoy the benefit of exercise. F．They would just increase the chance of injury for beginners. G．How much exercise you need to do depends on your current fitness level. 【答案】16．A 17．B 18．D 19．G 20．F 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了我们在锻炼的时候不能贪多，需要量力而行，逐步前进。 16．根据上文“A lot of people assume the more work they put in at the gym, and the longer and harder they push themselves, the better their results will be. (很多人认为他们在健身房投入的工作量越多，时间越长、努力越强，他们的成绩就会越好)”以及下文“But if you want to get the best gains, the key is to focus on the quality of the work rather than the quantity. (但如果你想获得最好的收获，关键是要关注工作的质量，而不是数量) ”可知，人们普遍认为锻炼的时间越长、越刻苦，收益就越大；但是实际上，锻炼时应该更关注锻炼的质量而非锻炼的时长。空处应承上启下，将上下文衔接起来。A项“It seems logical. (这似乎合乎逻辑)”中的It指代上文 the more work they put in at the gym, and the longer and harder they push themselves, the better their results will be这件事。故选A项。 17．根据上文“Once you've given it enough push to make these changes, any additional work you do after that point won't be making you any better. (一旦你给了它足够的动力来做出这些改变，在那之后你所做的任何额外工作都不会让你变得更好)” 以及下文“This is because you'll need longer to recover afterwards. (这是因为你需要更长的时间来恢复) ”可知，空格处应与上下文语义一致，介绍过度锻炼的坏处。B项“Instead, it'll harm your progress. (相反，这会损害你的进步)”承上启下，符合语境，故选B项。 18．根据上文“Ideally, it's just enough to do the smallest amount of work required to promote growth in every workout. (理想情况下，在每次锻炼中只需做促进成长所需的最小工作量就足够了)”可知，空格处应承接上文，进一步说明健身时，在完成最低训练量后应该停止训练，这样才能得到最大的收益。D项“After that, you can stop exercising during the day. (之后，你可以停止白天的运动)”承上启下，符合语境，故选D项。 19．根据下文的例子“For example, if a new gym-goer wants to get stronger, he might start a squat (深蹲) workout, which is made up of ten steps, each having five repetitions. (例如，如果一个新来健身房的人想变得更强壮，他可能会开始深蹲锻炼，由十个步骤组成，每个步骤重复五次)”可知，本段主要说明了每次锻炼的运动量如何确定。G项“How much exercise you need to do depends on your current fitness level. (你需要做多少运动取决于你目前的体能水平)”与本段内容相呼应，符合语境，故选G项。 20．根据上文“But the subsequent steps are meant for more professional people. (但接下来的步骤是为更专业的人准备的)”可知，后面的训练步骤是更专业的人需要做的，空处应承接上文，解释后续较难的步骤对初学者来说会有危险。F项“They would just increase the chance of injury for beginners. (它们只会增加初学者受伤的机会)”符合语境，故选F项。 Passage4 （2024·重庆·模拟预测）This summer, climate change continues to push Earth’s weather to extremes. 16 We invite some experts to discuss the science behind exercising in the heat, how to keep your body safe, and what to do if you suspect you or someone you’re with has heat exhaustion. 17 If you had a heavy meal like a cheeseburger, you’ll want to wait two to three hours before your hot outdoor exercise, since that fat and protein-rich meal will take even longer to move through the digestive process. Should you eat after that hot run? No. You can hydrate right away, but wait until you’ve cooled off to eat. That’s because digesting food will delay getting your body back to its usual temperature. Protect your skin — it’s the body’s cooling system. Your skin and related tissues are incredibly designed to move warm blood away from your core to keep your vital organs cool. Any damage to your skin or the underlying tissue prevents your body from being able to air condition itself. To protect your skin, start with sunscreen. 18 . Wear materials that will help your body breathe. 19 Wear sweat-wicking athletic clothing that allows your skin to cool. Avoid materials like cotton that basically keep the heat close to your body. Hydrate before, during and after exercise. Dehydration can really happen to you. 20 Besides, keep drinking while you’re working out. A．Don’t eat right before you head out. B．Try more heat-friendly forms of exercise. C．The type of suitable clothing you wear can also help you stay cool. D．But high outside temperatures in a dry climate can also be dangerous. E．Is a daytime run or bike ride in hot summer weather OK for our bodies? F．And consider wearing sun-protective clothing that blocks the sun, and include a hat. G．Make sure you are drinking water at least an hour before you head out to exercise. 【答案】16．E 17．A 18．F 19．C 20．G 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一些高温天气下在户外锻炼的建议。 16．根据上文“This summer, climate change continues to push Earth’s weather to extremes.(今年夏天，气候变化继续将地球的天气推向极端)”以及后文“We invite some experts to discuss the science behind exercising in the heat, how to keep your body safe, and what to do if you suspect you or someone you’re with has heat exhaustion.(我们邀请了一些专家来讨论在高温下运动背后的科学，如何保证你的身体安全，以及如果你怀疑你或你的伴侣患有中暑该怎么做)”可知，本句主要过渡句，引出炎热天气是否适合运动的疑问。故E选项“在炎热的夏天白天跑步或骑自行车对我们的身体好吗？”符合语境，故选E。 17．根据后文“If you had a heavy meal like a cheeseburger, you’ll want to wait two to three hours before your hot outdoor exercise, since that fat and protein-rich meal will take even longer to move through the digestive process. Should you eat after that hot run? No. You can hydrate right away, but wait until you’ve cooled off to eat. That’s because digesting food will delay getting your body back to its usual temperature.(如果你吃了一顿像芝士汉堡这样的大餐，你会想等两到三个小时再进行户外运动，因为富含脂肪和蛋白质的大餐需要更长的时间才能通过消化过程。热跑之后你应该吃东西吗？不。你可以马上补充水分，但要等到身体冷却后再吃。这是因为消化食物会延迟你的身体恢复正常体温)”可知，本段的建议是出门前不要吃太多东西。故A选项“出门前不要吃东西”符合语境，故选A。 18．根据本段主旨句“Protect your skin — it’s the body’s cooling system.(保护你的皮肤——这是身体的冷却系统)”可知，本段主要建议保护皮肤。前文“To protect your skin, start with sunscreen.(为了保护你的皮肤，从防晒霜开始)”讲述了可以使用防晒霜来保护皮肤，空处应是其他保护皮肤的方式，F项“并考虑穿宽松、轻便、能遮挡阳光的衣服。”建议穿有防晒作用的衣服，符合题意。故选F。 19．根据上文“Wear materials that will help your body breathe.(穿有助于身体呼吸的衣服)”以及后文“Wear sweat-wicking athletic clothing that allows your skin to cool. Avoid materials like cotton that basically keep the heat close to your body.(穿吸汗的运动服，让皮肤降温。不要穿棉质之类的衣服，因为它们能让热量接近你的身体)”可知，本段主要就穿的衣服提出了建议，C选项中clothing对应后文clothing。故C选项“选择合适的衣服也能让你保持凉爽”符合语境，故选C。 20．根据上文“Hydrate before, during and after exercise. Dehydration can really happen to you.(在运动前、运动中和运动后补充水分。脱水真的会发生在你身上)”可知，本句主要是建议补充水分。故G选项“确保你在出门锻炼前至少一个小时喝水”符合语境，故选G。 Passage5 （2024·湖南·二模）The first way we learn to communicate is through body language — our facial expressions, our gestures and, when we’re older, our postures. Even after we figure out how to speak, this non-verbal communication still exerts (施加) a powerful and often unconscious influence over our interactions, people’s first impressions of us and even our impressions of ourselves. 16 . Change how you feel To de-stress: Forcing a smile can make running easier and tough tasks less stressful. One 2012 experiment found that a grin makes holding your hand in ice water more bearable. To feel more confident: 17 . Striking this so-called power pose shortly before an interview or athletic contest can be particularly powerful for women, who tend to sit and stand in a way that takes up less space. To persevere: 18 . In a 2008 study, students who sat with their arms crossed kept working on an impossible problem nearly twice as long as those with their arms at their sides. Change how others feel 19 : Studies show that holding someone’s gaze may help people think you’re trustworthy and intelligent. According to body language expert Carol Kinsey Goman, it can also make people think you’re a good listener. To foster connections: Mirroring the facial expressions and gestures of the person you’re talking to can help them feel more comfortable. One 2011 experiment found this is an effective sales skill. To engage or disengage: If you want to let someone know you’re listening, sit facing them with your full body, knees and shoulders pointed at them. 20 . A．To come across as sincere B．But if you want to spread tension, angle your body slightly away — facing full-on is confrontational (对抗性的) when things get heated C．Here’s how to use body language to everyone’s benefit D．Making your index finger (食指) and middle finger crossed can help you gather strength E．To inform people F．Standing like Wonder Woman — legs apart, hands on hips, chest up — may make you feel more powerful G．Crossing your arms across your chest can help you persist in solving a problem 【答案】16．C 17．F 18．G 19．A 20．B 【导语】这是一篇说明文。短文介绍了如何使用肢体语言。 16．根据上文“Even after we figure out how to speak, this non-verbal communication still exerts(施加) a powerful and often unconscious influence over our interactions, people’s first impressions of us and even our impressions of ourselves.”（ 即使在我们学会了如何说话之后，这种非语言交流仍然会对我们的互动、别人对我们的第一印象，甚至是我们对自己的印象产生强大的、往往是无意识的影响）可知，上文说明了肢体语言的重要性，所以要如何使用肢体语言提出建议，且总起下文的标题。故C选项“以下是如何使用肢体语言使得对每个人都有好处”切题。故选C项。 17．根据上文“To feel more confident”（让自己更自信:）可知，选项承接上文说明那个动作使人更自信。故F选项“像神奇女侠一样站立——双腿分开，双手叉腰，挺胸——这会让你感觉更有力量”切题。powerful呼应confident。故选F项。 18．根据下文“In a 2008 study, students who sat with their arms crossed kept working on an impossible problem nearly twice as long as those with their arms at their sides. ”（在2008年的一项研究中，双臂交叉坐着的学生解决不可能的问题的时间几乎是双臂放在身体两侧的学生的两倍。）可知，选项与下文主题相关，说的都是双臂交叉在胸前有助于解决问题。故G选项“双臂交叉在胸前可以帮助你坚持解决问题”切题。故选G项。 19．根据下文“Studies show that holding someone’s gaze may help people think you’re trustworthy and intelligent. According to body language expert Carol Kinsey Goman, it can also make people think you’re a good listener.”（ 研究表明，和别人凝视会让别人觉得你值得信赖、聪明。根据肢体语言专家卡罗尔·金赛·戈曼的说法，它还可以让人们认为你是一个好的倾听者。）可知，本段主要在说要表现出真诚。故A选项“给人真诚的印象”切题，为本段的标题。故选A项。 20．根据上文“If you want to let someone know you’re listening, sit facing them with your full body, knees and shoulders pointed at them.”（ 如果你想让别人知道你在听，那就坐着，把整个身体、膝盖和肩膀都面向他们）可知，选项承接上文说明身体部分的姿势代表了不同的意义且与上文为转折关系。故B选项“但如果你想分散紧张感，那就把身体稍微向外倾斜——当事情变得激烈时，面朝全身是对抗性的。”切题。故选B项。 Passage6 （2024·广东广州·三模）The teenage years are a transformative period marked by great physical, psychological, and emotional changes. 16 They refer to the feelings that arise during interactions with others, such as gratitude, shame, sympathy, guilt, and pride. Understanding and managing social emotions can help develop teenagers’ identities. Teenagers experience a wide range of emotions from social interactions, which significantly influences their self-understanding and social awareness. In the process, they learn to understand, and appropriately respond to both their own emotions and those of others. 17 In academic settings, social emotional competencies like self-regulation, motivation, and social awareness directly impact a teenager’s ability to learn, participate, and engage in school activities. 18 Teenagers with strong social emotional skills are better equipped to handle stress, resist peer pressure, and avoid risky behaviors, reducing the likelihood of developing mental health issues. Learning social emotions involves a combination of personal experience, guidance, and formal education. 19 This environment influences teenagers’ earliest understanding of how to communicate and manage their emotions. They feel safe and supportive to express their emotions freely and learn to manage them without fear of judgment. Schools also play a significant role through social emotional learning programs that teach these skills in a structured environment. Community involvement, extracurricular activities, and peer (同伴) interactions offer additional opportunities for teenagers to practice and refine their social emotional skills. 20 It contributes to a teenager’s ability to manage their own emotions, understand others’ emotions, and face social complexities. This learning is a cornerstone for shaping their identity, influencing their interpersonal relationships, academic success, mental health, and future life outcomes.

According to a survey conducted in 2023, 91 percent of adults reported experiencing high or extreme levels of stress. 16 One alternative gaining popularity is wellness tourism, praised as the fastest-growing sector in the travel industry. The change of scenery and adventurous nature of an active holiday can lead to an overall change in the dominant chemicals in our brain, triggering releases of dopamine (多巴胺). 17 We often see dopamine travel as a complete distraction from everyday life, which promotes meaning or growth. Besides, such a form of travel has been proven to increase feelings of well-being, as well as increases in general activity level. 18 This is particularly present for outdoor trips such as mountaineering or skiing where a sense of accomplishment can lead to long lasting increases in self worth and confidence. 19 Oliver Brendon, CEO of Attraction Tickets.com adds: “The dopamine travel trend is centered on immersing yourself in exciting landscapes, which is why the brightly-colored theme parks such as Walt Disney World and Universal Orlando Resort make such popular destinations.” For more mindful moments, surrounding yourself in nature can create a sense of adventure and escape unlike traditional wellness getaways. 20 Going sailing on the tranquil lazy river at Discovery Cove is another wise choice. A．Consider choosing experiences like swimming with sea life. B．Try riding the popular roller coaster at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. C．These benefits have been reported as lasting up to a long post-holiday time. D．This effect of certain holidays has coined a new travel trend — dopamine travel. E．As we struggle with this stress, promoting our well-being has become most significant. F．It’s evident that we are increasingly seeking comfort and refreshment in holiday experiences. G．Just as other dopamine trends encourage bright colors, our environments also play a, vital role. 【答案】16．E 17．D 18．C 19．G 20．A 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了一种新的旅游形式——多巴胺旅行，介绍了该形式的特点和好处，同时推荐了一些热门的景点和度假方式。 16．根据上文“According to a survey conducted in 2023, 91 percent of adults reported experiencing high or extreme levels of stress.(根据2023年进行的一项调查，91%的成年人报告说他们经历了高度或极端的压力)”可知，本句应该是引出“如何减压”这个话题。E选项“当我们与这种压力作斗争时，促进我们的幸福变得最重要”符合语境。故选E。 17．根据上文“The change of scenery and adventurous nature of an active holiday can lead to an overall change in the dominant chemicals in our brain, triggering releases of dopamine (多巴胺).(在一个充满活力的假期里，景色的变化和冒险的性质会导致我们大脑中主要化学物质的全面变化，引发多巴胺的释放)”可知，上句提出“多巴胺”，进而引出“多巴胺旅行”这一概念。D选项“某些假期的影响创造了一种新的旅行趋势——多巴胺旅行”承接上文，符合语境，故选D。 18．根据上文“Besides, such a form of travel has been proven to increase feelings of well-being, as well as increases in general activity level.(此外，这种形式的旅行已被证明可以增加幸福感，并增加一般活动水平)”可知，本题前一个句子重点描述了这种旅行方式带给我们的帮助是些什么。C 项中的“these benefits”承接上文，本句继续补充说明这种旅行方式带来的影响。C选项“据报道，这些好处可以持续到节后很长一段时间”符合语境，故选C。 19．根据后文“Oliver Brendon, CEO of Attraction Tickets.com adds: “The dopamine travel trend is centered on immersing yourself in exciting landscapes, which is why the brightly-colored theme parks such as Walt Disney World and Universal Orlando Resort make such popular destinations.”(Attraction Tickets.com的首席执行官奥利弗·布兰登补充说：“多巴胺旅游的趋势是让自己沉浸在令人兴奋的风景中，这就是为什么沃尔特·迪斯尼世界和奥兰多环球影城度假村等色彩鲜艳的主题公园成为如此受欢迎的目的地。”)”以及段落中的关键信息“the brightly-colored”可知，本段重点想讨论的是多巴胺旅行的特点之一是具备鲜明色彩的环境。G选项“就像多巴胺的其他倾向会促使颜色变亮一样，我们的环境也起着至关重要的作用”符合语境，故选G。 20．根据上文“For more mindful moments, surrounding yourself in nature can create a sense of adventure and escape unlike traditional wellness getaways.(对于更专注的时刻，置身于大自然中可以创造一种冒险和逃避的感觉，而不是传统的健康度假)”以及后文“Going sailing on the tranquil lazy river at Discovery Cove is another wise choice.(在探索湾宁静慵懒的河流上扬帆是另一个明智的选择)”可知，该空是举例说明多巴胺旅行的一种形式。A选项“考虑选择像和海洋生物一起游泳这样的经历”符合语境，故选A。 Passage8 （2024·黑龙江吉林·模拟预测）Who can imagine life today without an Automated Teller Machine (ATM)? They are available in considerable numbers throughout the world. The first ATM was the brainchild of an enterprising Turkish-American inventor Luther George Simjian. When the idea of an automated banking machine struck him, he registered 20 patents before any bank agreed to give it a trial run. It is easy to assume that the inventor of such a popular machine was laughing all the way to the bank. 16 Within six months of its operation in New York in 1939, the device was removed due to lack of customer acceptance. It was not until 1967, nearly 30 years later, that Barclays Bank, in a careful launch, rolled out a self-service machine in London, England, which proved successful. 17 The first cash machine relied on customers’ use of prepaid tokens (代币) to get envelopes with a fixed amount of cash inside. 18 The banks’ principle was seemingly customer service. But it would be foolish to minimize the many advantages that cash machines provided to the banks themselves. By the late 1970s, the highest fixed cost for the average large bank was its branches. The greatest variable cost and loss to profits were its staff. Bank accounts swiftly recognized that self-service operations could reduce bank branch staff cost by70 percent. Experts quickly determined that public acceptance of ATMs counted on convenience, simplicity, speed, security and trust. 19 For maximum efficiency, ATMs had to be located near public transport or in a shopping mall, not at a branch. The busier and more crowded the location, obviously, the better. Now, roughly 75 percent of all cash provided by banks to their customers comes from cash machines. 20 . Public acceptance of deposits (存款) by machine was significantly slower than customers’ usage of ATMs for withdrawals. In general, it seems that customers sometimes still prefer and trust an over-the-counter transaction (交易) for deposits. A．Location, in particular, was a key factor. B．His cash machine, however, didn’t prove durable. C．The device was relatively primitive, at least by today’s standards. D．However, cash machines posed some interesting, unanswered questions. E．An interesting factor was the issue of bio-statistics for customer identification. F．Devices originally dismissed by the public are now recognized as essential institutions. G．Soon afterwards, many other banks became admittedly champions of the cash machine. 【答案】16．B 17．C 18．G 19．A 20．F 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了自动取款机(ATM)的发展历程和其在现代生活中的重要性。 16．根据上文“It is easy to assume that the inventor of such a popular machine was laughing all the way to the bank.(人们很容易认为，这样一台受欢迎机器的发明者一定赚得盆满钵满)”和下文“Within six months of its operation in New York in 1939, the device was removed due to lack of customer acceptance.(1939年，该设备在纽约运行了六个月后，由于缺乏客户接受，该设备被拆除)”可知，上下文有转折关系，B项“His cash machine, however, didn’t prove durable.(然而，他的取款机并没有经受住时间的考验)”承上启下，说明设想和现实有差距，引出下文第一台取款机的真实命运，上下文语意连贯。故选B项。 17．下文“The first cash machine relied on customers’ use of prepaid tokens (代币) to get envelopes with a fixed amount of cash inside.(第一台自动取款机依靠顾客使用预付代币来获得装有固定数量现金的信封)”介绍了第一台自动取款机的工作原理：用预付代币来换取现金信封，是对C项“The device was relatively primitive, at least by today’s standards.(这个装置相对来说比较原始，至少以今天的标准来看是这样)”的说明，说明第一台自动取款机比较原始的工作原理，上下文语意连贯。故选C项。 18．下文“The banks’ principle was seemingly customer service. But it would be foolish to minimize the many advantages that cash machines provided to the banks themselves. By the late 1970s, the highest fixed cost for the average large bank was its branches. The greatest variable cost and loss to profits were its staff. Bank accounts swiftly recognized that self-service operations could reduce bank branch staff cost by70 percent.(银行的原则似乎是客户服务。但是，低估自动取款机给银行自身带来的诸多好处是愚蠢的。到20世纪70年代末，大型银行的平均固定成本最高的是其分支机构。最大的可变成本和利润损失是它的员工。银行账户很快意识到，自助服务可以将银行分行的员工成本降低70%)”说明了自动取款机给银行带来的诸多好处，解释了G项“Soon afterwards, many other banks became admittedly champions of the cash machine.(不久之后，许多其他银行成为公认的自动提款机的拥护者)”中描述的这一现象，许多银行为了获益开始使用自动提款机，上下文语意连贯。故选G项。 19．下文“For maximum efficiency, ATMs had to be located near public transport or in a shopping mall, not at a branch. The busier and more crowded the location, obviously, the better.(为了最大限度地提高效率，自动取款机必须设在公共交通附近或购物中心，而不是在分行。显然，地点越繁忙、越拥挤越好)”指出自动取款机需要设在公共交通附近或购物中心，是对A项“Location, in particular, was a key factor.(尤其是地理位置，是一个关键因素)”的举例说明，说明地理位置的重要作用。故选A项。 20．上文“Now, roughly 75 percent of all cash provided by banks to their customers comes from cash machines.(现在，银行提供给客户的现金中，大约75%来自自动取款机)”谈及自动取款机的普及和广泛使用，F项“Devices originally dismissed by the public are now recognized as essential institutions.(最初被公众忽视的设备现在被认为是不可或缺的设施)”承接上文，总结自动取款机命运的变化，上下文语意连贯。故选F项。 Passage9 （2024·陕西榆林·一模）How to Start a Garden in 2024?

Reach out to friends and family who garden and ask them to share spare seeds with you. Also check to see if they have any plants you can take cuttings from.

It can provide homegrown food for your family, keep you in touch with nature and is also an invaluable form of exercise. In short, gardening is beneficial to both body and soul.(园艺是发挥创造力的有力途径，能让你置身于美之中。它可以为你的家人提供自制的食物，让你与大自然保持联系，也是一种宝贵的锻炼方式。简而言之，园艺对身体和灵魂都有益。)”以及下文中的小标题可知，本文主要讲述进行园艺的一些建议，D项“Here are some essential tips for beginners in gardening(这里有一些对园艺初学者必不可少的建议。)”符合本文主题，并引出下文。故选D项。 17．根据前文“Whatever you’re growing, fertile soil is the key.(无论你种什么，肥沃的土壤是关键。)”可知，本段主要讲述了，学习园艺，土壤是关键，所以F项“Investing in rich soil initially create s a suitable environment(最初投资于肥沃的土壤会创造一个适宜的环境。)”符合本段主题，其中soil为同词复现。故选F项。 18．根据后文“Lettuce and basil are quick and easy to grow. They’ll replace their leaves every time you cut them. Vegetables like these mean continuous harvests, which is huge for keeping spirits high.(生菜和罗勒又快又容易种植。每次你剪掉它们的叶子，它们都会换新的。像这样的蔬菜意味着连续的收获，这对保持精神振奋非常重要。)”可知，本段建议是园艺初学者应该种植能不断收获的蔬菜来保持精神振奋，所以C项“If you’re a newcomer(如果你是一个新人)”顺接下文“choose ones you can harvest more than once(选择那些你可以收获不止一次的)”符合本段主题。故选C项。 19．设空处为本段小标题，根据后文“Some plants will grow tall and some will grow closer to the ground. Tall plants will shade shorter plants and prevent them getting needed sunshine. Also, give little seedlings plenty of room to stretch and grow. If they grow too close together, don’t be afraid to thin seedlings.(有些植物会长得很高，有些植物会长得离地面更近。高大的植物会遮蔽较矮的植物，使它们得不到所需的阳光。同时，给幼苗足够的空间伸展和生长。如果它们长得太近，不要害怕把幼苗削薄。)”可知，本段主题是建议要注意植物的生长空间，所以B项“Size up your growing space(评估你的种植空间)”符合主题，为本段小标题。故选B项。 20．根据前文“Buying all of your plants from the garden center is expensive.(从园艺中心购买所有的植物是昂贵的。)”以及后文“Reach out to friends and family who garden and ask them to share spare seeds with you.
