Wash your hands carefully using soap and hot water. 　2　, they will be much less likely to get the cold.   ●Cover your nose and mouth. There is a saying that “coughs and sneezes spread illness”. 　3　 when coughing and your nose if sneezing. That way, the cold germs won’t get onto your hands and spread to things you touch such as doorknobs, tap handles or cups and plates.   ●　4　.  Cold germs are spread very easily. You can use a disinfectant(消毒剂)cleaner to clean doorknobs, taps, toilet handles. Be sure to use only your own towel, toothbrush and cup. ●Take care of yourself. 　5　.

Grown-ups usually need 6—8 hours of sleep to keep active. 　3　 That is why old people sleep less than young people.  Interesting facts Almost everyone has their dreams while they sleep, but not all of them can tell their dreams clearly when they wake up. 　4　 More surprisingly, some may even get up in their dreams and walk around. This is called “sleepwalking”. Are you a sleepwalker? Or, is there a sleepwalker around you?  　5　  It’s not just people that love to snooze(打盹).

But when done a lot — especially without realizing it — emotional eating can affect weight, health, and overall well-being. ____2____ One of the biggest myths about emotional eating is that it’s caused by negative feelings. Yes, people often turn to food when they’re stressed out, lonely, sad, anxious, or bored. But emotional eating can be linked to positive feelings too, like the romance of sharing dessert on Valentine’s Day or the celebration of a holiday feast. Sometimes emotional eating is tied to major life events, like a death or a divorce.____3____ Emotional eating patterns can be learned: A child who is given candy after a big achievement may grow up using candy as a reward for a job well done.____4____ It’s not easy to “unlearn” patterns of emotional eating. But it is possible. And it starts with an awareness of what’s going on. We’re all emotional caters to a degree. But for some people emotional eating can be a real problem, causing serious weight gain or other problems. The trouble with emotional eating is that once the pleasure of eating is gone, the feelings that cause it remain.____5____ That’s why it helps to know the difference between physical hunger and emotional hunger. Next time you reach for a snack, wait and think about which type of hunger is driving it. A. Believe it or not, we’ve all been there. B.

No more negative energy. 　1　  Hard times are rubbish, but they make you what you are. Recognize that and know that if you can come through them, you will be more capable and more confident. It's a lucky person indeed who manages to avoid upset as they go through life; what's important is how you deal with it. Count your blessings Feeling sorry for yourself? It may sound normal, but it's important to remind yourself of what's good about your life. Try writing a list of the things you're thankful for, or spend a few minutes every evening putting down three nice things that have happened to you that day. 　2　. Patted a dog in the park? Write it down. Laughed at a silly meme(表情包)on social media? Put that on the list too.  Protect yourself from energy vampires We all know those who suck the joy out of life and leave you feeling emotionally exhausted. They moan, blame others or just generally bring you down.　3　. Gently explain the effect that they have may bring them round, or simply make sure you're always positive yourself in order to reduce the bad effect of their negativity.　4　, or eventually cut ties with them entirely.  Create joy in your life 　5　. Make a coffee date with a friend; set aside an hour to play a board game with your family; or take a regular walk where you explore somewhere new in your locality.  A.Focus on positivity B.Accept unfavorable situations C.Remember to set down the three most significant ones D.Try to understand that they have probably got problems E.It really doesn't matter if they are small and insignificant F.But ultimately you might need to limit the time you spend with them G.Inject positivity into your daily routine by making time for activities that bring you pleasure 二 　　Creativity is how you think, explore and reason. We all want it but at times it seems far too out of reach. Here are a handful of ways that give you inspiration. Daydream Your teacher may tell you off for staring out of the window at nothing. 　1　. The scientists recorded brain activity while people lay still, but not asleep, and concluded that daydreaming can help people become better problem⁃solvers. However, if you're simply not paying attention when you should be, that clearly isn't beneficial.  　2　  Be willing to challenge things that you have always done. A group of watermelon farmers had an issue with the way that watermelons were difficult to pack and store. Their round shape meant that they took up a lot of space.“But why do watermelons actually need to be round?” thought the farmers. They began growing the fruit in square glass boxes, thus creating square watermelons. 　3　.  Have a good laugh Believe it or not, more than one study has shown that people who watched a comedy film are much better afterwards at coming up with a creative solution to a problem than those who watched a horror film. It appears that having a good laugh makes us feel more relaxed, which helps the creative process. 　4　. That's because the mind is too focused on survival.  Noise You might imagine that you will be at your most creative if you are able to work in complete silence, but you'd be wrong. For most creative tasks, a low level of noise, like the chatter that you get in a café, is best. 　5　, but when you want to come up with ideas, try a little hubbub (喧闹).  A.Think outside the box B.Face challenges with courage C.It is very difficult to be creative when you're stressed D.They quickly win the market back and make larger profits E.They just needed to think differently to find the perfect solution F.Complete silence is good when you need to focus on a difficult task G.But having a wandering mind may be a sign of intelligence and creativity 三 　　If you can create a perfect flower arrangement for the next dinner party, it will undoubtedly be the center of attraction. 　1　 There are some ways to create beautiful flower arrangements based on seasonal fragrant flowers, and some green leaves.  Select the perfect flowers. The first step is to use fresh flowers. 　2　 If you want to have bright and summery appearance, you can choose a variety of colors for carnations, geraniums, and tulips. Such colors make the fresh flower arrangement look bright and beautiful.  　3　 Select seasonal flowers and leaves so that the entire arrangement looks like a natural handheld bunch. You can choose locally available flowers, adding broad leaves so that the entire arrangement looks natural. If you want to give the arrangement natural yet special appeal, you can add unique flowers like tulips, carnations, and orchids.  Use tropical flowers. In Australia, you can use several tropical flowers to make unique flower arrangements. These flowers can improve the beauty of any bunch. 　4　 For example, if you want to have brighter appeal, you can add tropical flowers like daisies, sunflowers, and snapdragons.  Choose a particular shape. When you select a flower arrangement, it is basic to select structure. The flowers should be such that they can easily be put in a particular shape. If you want a new moon shape, then you should select flowers that will stress the shape. You will also need stalks(梗) to help you build the shape. 　5　  A.Create perfect flower arrangements. B.Keep the flower arrangement natural. C.Flowers can always improve the feeling of mind. D.This will allow you to place several flowers in the vase. E.Moreover, all of these flowers are available in several colors. F.They will contribute to achieving the overall beauty of the arrangement.

Only you can change your life by changing the choices you make. Take responsibility for everything in your life. Even if it's not in your direct control, you can always choose how you respond.  　3　 If you choose what is fun and easy over what is necessary, you will never reach the levels of success and happiness you are capable of achieving in your life. That's because every great victory requires great sacrifice. If success were easy, everybody would be successful.  There is nothing that you can't achieve with hard work. People often think that their lives will suddenly change through some magical events in the future.　4　 Your life changes only to the extent that you change. Nothing will ever change if you don't change what you do daily.  A great way to actively create your future is to ask yourself: If I already achieved my goals, how would I act on a daily basis? What books would I read, how often would I work out, and how would I spend my time at the office?　5　  A.But that is not the case. B.No one else is responsible for your life. C.Now these questions seem like magic to you. D.Nothing else can be the drive for your success. E.Once you answer these questions, you know what to do. F.The biggest enemy to success is the path of least resistance. G.You can blame other people for your lack of happiness all life long. 五 　　During my stay in Hawaii for further studies in 1983—1984, I saw many Japanese tourists enjoying the sun and sand on Waikiki Beach or shopping in the malls. 　1　  At that time the monthly income of an average Chinese worker was about 30 yuan—the exchange rate then was about 2 yuan to one US dollar—not enough to even make ends meet for most of the families. 　2　  But that dream has come true. About 10 years ago, when I visited Hawaii again to attend a conference hosted by the East⁃West Center, I found Chinese tourists had replaced Japanese tourists both on the beach and in the malls. 　3　  The country's rapid economic development has enabled millions of Chinese people to travel abroad. In 2019, Chinese people made 155 million overseas visits, making China the top source of outbound tourists in the world, far ahead of second⁃ and third⁃placed Germany and the United States. Chinese tourists spend about $130 billion abroad every year. 　4　 Chinese tourists today can be found in all the corners of the world, from Waikiki Beach to the Sahara Desert, from the Arctic to the Antarctic.  　5　 At that time some Chinese, who had relatives in Singapore and Thailand, were given visas to travel to those countries if the relatives sponsored their visits. The same mode was adopted for those who had relatives in the Hong Kong and Macao special administrative regions and, later, Taiwan, China.  A.The trend started 30 years ago. B.Chinese tourists prefer guided tours. C.Only the Chinese tourists were shopping more crazily. D.They spend more than tourists from any other country. E.As a result, traveling abroad was a dream for most Chinese. F.As a student from a poor country, I hoped someday the tourists would include Chinese. G.And most of those who travel in groups are retired people or inexperienced, young tourists. 原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！1 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 衔接点 19 阅读理解（七选五）（初高考点差异及衔接） 初中要求 七选五的题型要对所读文章的主旨要义、具体信息要有所了解，尤其重要的是要掌握作者的写作意图、观点，区分出论点和论据，并且能够把握文章的写作结构和脉络层次 高中要求 信息还原(七选五)所选文章多为说明文,文章结构通常为“总—分(—总)”,内容通常是教人如何学习、如何做事、如何生活等,符合中学生的特点,贴近中学生的日常生活。 【初中阅读理解（七选五）考点聚焦】 七选五的题型不仅要有阅读速度，要对所读文章的主旨要义、具体信息要有所了解，尤其重要的是要掌握作者的写作意图、观点，区分出论点和论据，并且能够把握文章的写作结构和脉络层次，才能比较准确地确定应该选择哪个选项。所以建议从文章结构特点及出题位置、解题步骤、词汇衔接和逻辑衔接这四个方面下手。 一、出题位置及文章结构 掌握英语文章常见的几种文章写作结构，了解了七选五所考查的要点，出题位置，在阅读文章时有意识地加强对文章写作思路和结构组织安排的理解，对解题有帮助。 出题位置 段首，段中，段尾 ，缺1句或1个以上的句子。 该节分为两个部分：主干部分和选项部分。主干部分的原文约300词，其中有5段空白处，空白处的位置可能在段首、段中、段未，选项部分为七段文字。要求考生依据自己对文章的理解从选项中选择5段文字放回到文章中相应的5段空白处。 二、解题步骤 1)快速阅读全文要点词句，包括首尾段、首尾句以及独立成段的句子和文章中带转折词的句子等，目的是掌握文章的主要内容。 2)边读边做题，重点阅读各个问题附近的句子，圈定线索词，然后从选项中寻找相关的特征词，以确定答案。做题时可以采用代入排除法。如果一题做不出或拿不准，可先放过，继续往下读，先做容易的能做出的题，直到读完整篇文章。至此，文章的要点和主旨、各个段落之间的逻辑关系应基本清楚了。 3)重新阅读相关词句，重点做刚才没做出的题或不确定的题，此时可将已选出的答案代入原文，利用排除法。同时检查核对已选出的答案，看文章从内容上是否语义连贯合理，语篇结构上是否通顺连贯、具有一致性、合乎逻辑，写作思路是否清晰明了，格式以及用语是否恰当贴切。如果所选的答案可以满足上述标准，则表明各个问题的答案基本正确。 4）比较两类关键词 ：将7个选项的关键词与5个空的前后句中的关键词进行比较，匹配的是正确答案。 具体方法： 1．阅读各个空的前后句，标记关键词 在阅读文章的开始部分、明确文章的基本话题以后，要阅读五个空自的前后句，并将前后句中的解题线索，即关键词标记下来。关键词包括句中的核心名词或名词词组（如带有形容词的名词词组），专有名词、时间数字、代词、连词等。 2． 阅读各个选项，尤其是选项的首句，标记关键词 3． 比较并匹配上述两类关键词，确定答案 4． 将确定的答案代入原文，看读起来是否通顺。 一 　　根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的正确答案。 　　When you have a cold, your friends can’t visit you because they don’t want to get a cold. When you are part of a family, if one of you gets a cold, often all of you get it. 　1　. Below are four ways to help stop a cold spreading and to feel better again.  ●Wash your hands. Washing your hands is the most important way to stop the spread of colds. Cold germs(病菌)are spread by touch. The germs get onto your hands and from there into your eyes, nose and mouth. Wash your hands carefully using soap and hot water. 　2　, they will be much less likely to get the cold.   ●Cover your nose and mouth. There is a saying that “coughs and sneezes spread illness”. 　3　 when coughing and your nose if sneezing. That way, the cold germs won’t get onto your hands and spread to things you touch such as doorknobs, tap handles or cups and plates.   ●　4　.  Cold germs are spread very easily. You can use a disinfectant(消毒剂)cleaner to clean doorknobs, taps, toilet handles. Be sure to use only your own towel, toothbrush and cup. ●Take care of yourself. 　5　. Eat healthy simple foods such as soup or rice. Get enough rest and sleep. Stay in bed, read a book. Do your schoolwork and practice your English!  Remember that a common cold only lasts a few days. You will feel better soon. A.Some cold medicines can help stop aches and fever B.Cold germs can be spread by coughing and sneezing C.If all the members of your family wash their hands too D.Always use a piece of soft paper to cover your mouth E.When you wash your hands every half an hour F.Clean your house G.There is no good method of treating the common cold 答案　 　　本文为说明文。感冒很容易传染,目前没有什么好方法治疗感冒,但是我们可以做一些事情来防止传染和让自己感觉舒服一些。 1.G　根据后面一句说以下是阻止感冒传播和让人感觉好一些的方法推断,此处应该在说没有治疗感冒的好方法。故选G。 2.C　根据本段标题“Wash your hands.”可知,应在C、E中选择。根据后面“they will be much less likely to get the cold”推测这里是说如果你的家人也洗手,他们感冒的可能性就会小很多。故选C。 3.D　根据后面一句“That way, the cold germs won’t ...”可知本句介绍了防止咳嗽和打喷嚏传播病菌的方法,结合标题“Cover your nose and mouth.”可知选D。 4.F　此处应选择本段的标题。根据本段内容可知第三个方法是清洁房间。可知选F。 5.A　根据小标题“Take care of yourself.”可知本段介绍的是患感冒后照顾自己的方法。与此相关的选项只有A。 长难句　When you have a cold, your friends can’t visit you because they don’t want to get a cold.当你感冒时,你的朋友不能来看你,因为他们不想感冒。 本句为主从复合句。句中When引导时间状语从句,because引导原因状语从句。 重点词汇　spread v.传播;cough v.咳嗽;sneeze v.打喷嚏 词汇积累　likely adj.可能的;cleaner n.清洁剂 二 　　根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 　　Do you know the reason why we feel tired in the middle of a class? Maybe you would say it is because the teacher’s class is boring.　1　 Perhaps this is something you have not paid enough attention to or not yet noticed.   Purpose of sleep 　2　 Sleep helps our body heal(修复), grow, and stay healthy. It also gives us energy, so we can be active all day. Doctors and health scientists say: When you close your eyes and need to rest, sleep is just the very best! This is more than advice.   Sleep time Enough sleep is important to us. How much sleep do we need? New-born babies sleep most of the time. They can sleep 20—22 hours a day. Children need 10—12 hours of sleep a day. Teenagers need 8—10 hours of sleep a day because they need lots of energy to grow into their adult(成人的)bodies. Grown-ups usually need 6—8 hours of sleep to keep active. 　3　 That is why old people sleep less than young people.  Interesting facts Almost everyone has their dreams while they sleep, but not all of them can tell their dreams clearly when they wake up. 　4　 More surprisingly, some may even get up in their dreams and walk around. This is called “sleepwalking”. Are you a sleepwalker? Or, is there a sleepwalker around you?  　5　  It’s not just people that love to snooze(打盹). In fact, many animals have unusual or surprising sleeping habits. Some animals, such as bears and hedgehogs, sleep all through winter. The swift is a very fast bird that can sleep while it flies! Cute koalas sleep around 18 hours a day. Giraffes don’t need much sleep at all. They usually sleep standing up. A.Sleepy animals B.Why do we need sleep? C.Some people talk in their dreams. D.However, the real reason is probably that we don’t have enough sleep. E.The older you get, the less sleep you will need. F.Some people never dream while they sleep. G.Clever animals 答案　 　　本文是说明文。文章介绍了有关睡眠的一些知识。 1.D　根据上句“你或许会说这是因为老师的课程无聊”和下句“这或许是某件你没有足够留意或注意到的事”可知,设空处表示转折。故选D。 2.B　根据本段小标题Purpose of sleep可知本段是在解释需要睡觉的原因。故选B。 3.E　根据上文可知随着年龄的增长,睡眠时间在减少。设空处起承上启下的作用。故选E。 4.C　根据本段小标题Interesting facts和设空处前后内容可知,本段在描述一些人在睡梦中会做的一些有趣的事,故选C。 5.A　设空处是本段的小标题。本段内容描述的是关于一些动物的睡觉习惯,故选A。 词汇积累　adult adj.成人的;snooze v.打盹 三 　　阅读下面短文,从短文后所给的选项中选出能填入短文空白处的最佳选项,使短文通顺连贯,其中有两项是多余选项。 　　There are not many nations that can say their national dish has become international. 　1　 Both are famous all over the world, and both have made the history of Italian food.

They were mostly for those who didn’t have enough money to buy plates,or who were on the go. In the 18th century, Naples, in southern Italy, had become one of the largest cities in Europe, and it was growing fast. Lots of city people were poor and they were always rushing around to look for work.　3　 Pizzas were cut to meet the customers’needs.

It was increasingly considered as a fast, fun food. People might like New York-style thin pizza, or Chicago deep-dish thick pizza. Some want extra cheese on their pizzas while others only like vegetables. 　5　  For a lot of people in western countries, when they cannot decide what to eat, they order pizzas. A.Nobody knows where pizza came from. B.The secret is, almost everyone likes pizzas. C.Italy has two such dishes, spaghetti and pizza. D.A number of people refused to eat pizzas in Italy.

Lazy people will never amount to anything in life. However, laziness can be defeated once a few changes have been made in your mind. ___1___Many people lack sleep constantly, since they stay up too late and get up too early to prepare for work. These people have little motivation once they arrive home. Laziness works hand in hand with a lack of motivation and a tendency (趋势) to put off things. By adjusting your sleep schedule to provide a few more hours of meaningful rest, you can fight laziness throughout the day. Another way to fight laziness is to change your mind from passive to active. ___2___Others take a more active approach, viewing each task as a challenge they must overcome alone.

A television in the living room may provide entertainment. However, watching too much TV in your spare time often contributes to laziness._____3_____Complete a few tasks and reward yourself with what you enjoy, such as a good dinner or a film. Laziness can also be a lasting problem at home. Couples and children may all have different energy levels, but laziness can be spread if not dealt with immediately. ___4___Be the first to collect and wash dishes after a meal.

Virtual teams are governed by the same basic principles as traditional teams. ___2___It is the way the team members communicate. They rely on special communication channels enabled by modern technologie, such as emails, faxes, and teleconferences, and alike. Due to more limited communication channels, the success of virtual teams is much more sensitive to the type of project the group works on, what people are selected, and how the team is managed. ___3___One challenging case is the projects that rely heavily on integrated work. That is to say when each person’s work depends significantly on what someone else is doing at the same moment, like in a sports team, there is an ongoing heavy exchange of information in real time, and the tasks have to go through a strict order within a short time. Not everyone can perform well in a virtual team environment. ___4___Another important quality is communication skills. The team members must be able to communicate clearly and positively. Managers of virtual teams need to pay much more attention to having clear goals, performance standards, and communication rules. People have various assumptions on what to expect from each other.____5____ One of the biggest challenges of virtual teams is building trust between the team members. Trust is important for unblocking communication between members and increasing motivation of each person in the team. The issue of trust needs special attention at any stage of team existence. A. Yet, there is one significant difference. B. Not every type of project is suitable for a virtual team. C. A virtual team can choose whatever project they like to work on. D. The members must be self-motivated and able to work independently. E. Such teams are now widely used by companies and organizations to cut business costs. F. Members of virtual teams communicate quite well although they never meet face-to-face. G. To avoid misunderstanding, clear rules that everyone understands and agrees on are necessary. 【答案】1. E 2. A 3. B 4. D 5. G 【解析】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了虚拟团队的含义、规则和作用。 1.根据下文“This is particularly so for businesses that use virtual teams to build global presence, or need less common skills or knowledge from people who are unwilling to travel.(对于那些使用虚拟团队建立全球影响力，或者不太需要来自不愿旅行的人的常见技能或知识的企业来说，情况尤其如此)”可知，此句中的this指代上文的virtual team。E项“Such teams are now widely used by companies and organizations to cut business costs.(这样的团队现在广泛地被公司和组织使用，用它可以减少商业成本)”中的such team与上文的指代一致，符合文意。故选E项。 2.根据上文“Virtual teams are governed by the same basic principles as traditional teams.(虚拟团队由与传统团队相同的基本原则来管理)”以及下文“It is the way the team members communicate.(这就是团队成员的沟通方式)”可知空格处起承上启下作用。A项“Yet, there is one significant difference.(但是，有一点明显的区别)”符合，讲明与传统团队管理方式的不同之处，故选A项。 3.根据下文“One challenging case is the projects that rely heavily on integrated work.(一种挑战情况是严重依赖于协调工作的项目)”可知，这里列举到虚拟团队遇到的问题。B项“Not every type of project is suitable for a virtual team.(不是所有类型的项目都适合于虚拟团队)”符合，故选B项。 4.根据上文“Not everyone can perform well in a virtual team environment.(不是所有人都能在虚拟团队氛围中发挥良好水平)”和下文“Another important quality is communication skills. The team members must be able to communicate clearly and positively.(另一个重要的品质是沟通技巧。团队成员必须能够清晰、积极地沟通)”可知，空格处说的是成员应具备的能力。D项“The members must be self-motivated and able to work independently.(成员必须是自发的、能够独立工作的)”符合题意。故选D项。 5.根据上文“Managers of virtual teams need to pay much more attention to having clear goals, performance standards, and communication rules. People have various assumptions on what to expect from each other.(虚拟团队的管理者需要更加关注明确的目标、绩效标准和沟通规则。关于对彼此的预期，人们有各种不同的设想)”可知，人们有很多的设想和猜测，因此明确的规章制度很重要，G项“To avoid misunderstanding, clear rules that everyone understands and agrees on are necessary.(为避免误解，所有人理解、都赞成的清楚的规定，是必要的)”符合文意，故选G项。 六 根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Emotional Eating Emotional eating is when people use food as a way to deal with feelings instead of satisfying hunger. ____1____ Have you ever finished a whole bag of chips out of boredom or downed cookie after cookie while preparing for a big test? But when done a lot — especially without realizing it — emotional eating can affect weight, health, and overall well-being. ____2____ One of the biggest myths about emotional eating is that it’s caused by negative feelings. Yes, people often turn to food when they’re stressed out, lonely, sad, anxious, or bored. But emotional eating can be linked to positive feelings too, like the romance of sharing dessert on Valentine’s Day or the celebration of a holiday feast. Sometimes emotional eating is tied to major life events, like a death or a divorce.____3____ Emotional eating patterns can be learned: A child who is given candy after a big achievement may grow up using candy as a reward for a job well done.____4____ It’s not easy to “unlearn” patterns of emotional eating. But it is possible. And it starts with an awareness of what’s going on. We’re all emotional caters to a degree. But for some people emotional eating can be a real problem, causing serious weight gain or other problems. The trouble with emotional eating is that once the pleasure of eating is gone, the feelings that cause it remain.____5____ That’s why it helps to know the difference between physical hunger and emotional hunger. Next time you reach for a snack, wait and think about which type of hunger is driving it. A. Believe it or not, we’ve all been there. B. If a crying boy gets some cookies, he may link cookies with comfort. C. One study found that people who eat food like pizza become happy afterwards. D. And you often may feel worse about eating the amount or type of food you like. E. Understanding what drives emotional eating can help people take steps to change it. F. Boys seem to prefer hot, homemade comfort meals, while girls go for chocolate and ice cream. G. More often, though, it’s the countless little daily stresses that cause someone to seek comfort in food. 【答案】1. A 2. E 3. G 4. B 5. D 【解析】本文是说明文。文章主要介绍了什么是情绪化进食，引起情绪化进食的原因和其带来的后果。 1.根据上文“Emotional eating is when people use food as a way to deal with feelings instead of satisfying hunger. (情绪化进食是指人们用食物来处理情绪，而不是满足饥饿感)”可知，上文介绍了什么是情绪化进食。根据下文“Have you ever finished a whole bag of chips out of boredom or downed cookie after cookie while preparing for a big test? (你有没有因为无聊而吃完一整袋薯片，或者在准备大考的时候一块接一块地吃掉曲奇饼干？)”可知，下文介绍了我们生活中情绪化进食的例子。由此可知，A项“信不信由你，我们都经历过情绪化进食。”能够承接上文并引出下文。故选A。 2.根据下文“One of the biggest myths about emotional eating is that it’s caused by negative feelings.(关于情绪化进食的最大误区之一是它是由消极情绪引起的)”和“But emotional eating can be linked to positive feelings too, like the romance of sharing dessert on Valentine’s Day or the celebration of a holiday feast. (但是情绪化进食也可以与积极的情绪联系在一起，比如在情人节分享甜点的浪漫或庆祝节日的盛宴)”可知，下文主要介绍的是引起情绪化进食的原因。由此可知，E项“了解情绪化进食的原因可以帮助人们采取措施改变情绪化进食。”能够引出下文引起情绪化进食的原因。故选E。 3.根据上文“But emotional eating can be linked to positive feelings too, like the romance of sharing dessert on Valentine’s Day or the celebration of a holiday feast. Sometimes emotional eating is tied to major life events, like a death or a divorce.

(情绪化进食的问题在于，一旦进食的乐趣消失，导致进食的感觉依然存在)”可知，进食结束后，消极情绪依然存在。由此可知，D项“而且你经常会因为你吃的你喜欢的食物的数量或种类而感觉更糟。”能够承接上文，进一步介绍了情绪化进食的问题，进食结束后，不仅消极情绪依然存在，甚至会因为自己吃了过多的食物而感觉更糟。故选D。 七 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Everyone has failed in something, whether it is a failed relationship, fitness goal, business, or examination.

Did you truly learn and memorize the information? Do you need to study or learn it a different way?”（你是什么时候开始学习的，学了多久？你是真的学进去并记住了这些信息吗？ 你需要继续这样学习还是换一种方式学习？） 可知，这些都是针对如何学习提出的问题，所以空白处应总说当你在学习中碰到问题后，你的想法是怎么样的。选项G.“For example, if you failed a test,think about how you studied for it.”（比如说，你考试的时候没有通过，你要想一下你是如何学习的）与后文意思相对应的，故选G。 4.根据文章前面几段可知，文章分段落的结构是总分结构。即段落第一句是作为整段的总起句。根据后文“Don't analyze every little problem that went wrong or everything you "should" have done in the past.Instead,pay attention to what you've learned from these mistakes. With each mistake you make,ask yourself,"What can l learn from this?"”（不要分析每一个出问题的小问题，也不要分析过去你应该做的每一件事。相反， 要注意你从这些错误中学到了什么。每犯一次错误，问问自己，我能从中学到什么?） 可知，整段都是在讲如何从失败中学习，选项B.“Learn your lessons.”（吸取教训）是对本段的总结，符合题意。故选B。 5.根据前文“Failure doesn't have to be the end.Think of it as the start of middle of a process.”（失败不一定是终点。把它看作一个过程的开始）后文“Most successful people have had failures, but they picked up and moved forward.”（大多数成功人士都经历过失败，但他们会振作起来， 继续前进） 可推测，中间空格处的句子也应该表达失败是一个中点，而非终点的意思。选项E.“See failure as a stepping stone on the way.”（把失败看成是前进路上的垫脚石）符合语境。故选E。 八 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项，请把答案写在答题卡上。 Although Kobe Bryant is no longer with us, his unbreakable will on and off the basketball court lives on.

No more negative energy. 　1　  Hard times are rubbish, but they make you what you are. Recognize that and know that if you can come through them, you will be more capable and more confident. It's a lucky person indeed who manages to avoid upset as they go through life; what's important is how you deal with it. Count your blessings Feeling sorry for yourself? It may sound normal, but it's important to remind yourself of what's good about your life. Try writing a list of the things you're thankful for, or spend a few minutes every evening putting down three nice things that have happened to you that day. 　2　. Patted a dog in the park? Write it down. Laughed at a silly meme(表情包)on social media? Put that on the list too.  Protect yourself from energy vampires We all know those who suck the joy out of life and leave you feeling emotionally exhausted. They moan, blame others or just generally bring you down.　3　. Gently explain the effect that they have may bring them round, or simply make sure you're always positive yourself in order to reduce the bad effect of their negativity.　4　, or eventually cut ties with them entirely.  Create joy in your life 　5　. Make a coffee date with a friend; set aside an hour to play a board game with your family; or take a regular walk where you explore somewhere new in your locality.  A.Focus on positivity B.Accept unfavorable situations C.Remember to set down the three most significant ones D.Try to understand that they have probably got problems E.It really doesn't matter if they are small and insignificant F.But ultimately you might need to limit the time you spend with them G.Inject positivity into your daily routine by making time for activities that bring you pleasure 答案 [语篇解读] 语篇类型:说明文。主题语境:人与自我。主旨:减少身边负能量的方法。 1.B　根据本段中“Hard times are rubbish, but they make you what you are.”可知需接受生活中艰难的处境。 2.E　根据下文“Patted a dog in the park... Laughed at a silly meme (表情包) on social media?”可知,记录生活中的一些小事也是可以提醒自己生活是值得感激的,不管它们有多小,多微不足道。 3.D　根据下文“Gently explain the effect that they have may bring them round, or simply make sure you're always positive yourself in order to reduce the bad effect of their negativity.”可知,遇到生活中那些满是负能量的人首先要理解,然后说明他们带来的影响。 4.F　根据下文“or eventually cut ties with them entirely”可知,你可能需要限制与他们相处的时间,或者彻底断开联系。 5.G　根据此段的小标题“Create joy in your life”和下文列出的活动可知,要多参加那些使自己快乐的活动。 二 　　Creativity is how you think, explore and reason. We all want it but at times it seems far too out of reach. Here are a handful of ways that give you inspiration. Daydream Your teacher may tell you off for staring out of the window at nothing. 　1　. The scientists recorded brain activity while people lay still, but not asleep, and concluded that daydreaming can help people become better problem⁃solvers. However, if you're simply not paying attention when you should be, that clearly isn't beneficial.  　2　  Be willing to challenge things that you have always done. A group of watermelon farmers had an issue with the way that watermelons were difficult to pack and store. Their round shape meant that they took up a lot of space.“But why do watermelons actually need to be round?” thought the farmers. They began growing the fruit in square glass boxes, thus creating square watermelons. 　3　.  Have a good laugh Believe it or not, more than one study has shown that people who watched a comedy film are much better afterwards at coming up with a creative solution to a problem than those who watched a horror film. It appears that having a good laugh makes us feel more relaxed, which helps the creative process. 　4　. That's because the mind is too focused on survival.  Noise You might imagine that you will be at your most creative if you are able to work in complete silence, but you'd be wrong. For most creative tasks, a low level of noise, like the chatter that you get in a café, is best. 　5　, but when you want to come up with ideas, try a little hubbub (喧闹).  A.Think outside the box B.Face challenges with courage C.It is very difficult to be creative when you're stressed D.They quickly win the market back and make larger profits E.They just needed to think differently to find the perfect solution F.Complete silence is good when you need to focus on a difficult task G.But having a wandering mind may be a sign of intelligence and creativity 答案 [语篇解读] 语篇类型:说明文。主题语境:人与自我。 主旨:激发创造力的方法和策略。 1.G　过渡句。上文讲你可能会因为走神或做白日梦而受责备,下文讲走神或做白日梦可以帮助人们更好地解决问题,上下文有转折关系,G项“But having a wandering mind may be a sign of intelligence and creativity”承上启下,且句中“wandering mind”照应标题“Daydream”和上文“staring out of the window at nothing”。 2.A　主旨句。下文讲述瓜农创造性地种植方西瓜,从而解决了西瓜难于打包和储存的问题,由此可知创造力的培养需要跳出固有思维模式,这与A项“Think outside the box (打破固有思维模式)”吻合。 3.D　细节句。上文讲为了解决西瓜难于打包和储存的问题,瓜农创造性地种植方西瓜。D项“They quickly win the market back and make larger profits”与上文构成顺承关系。 4.C　过渡句。选项C “It is very difficult to be creative when you're stressed”与下文“That's because the mind is too focused on survival.”构成因果关系,说明了有压力时很难有创造力的原因,与上文“It appears that having a good laugh makes us feel more relaxed, which helps the creative process.”构成对比关系,符合语境。 5.F　细节句。根据连词but可知,上下文有转折关系,F项“Complete silence is good when you need to focus on a difficult task”讲安静的好处,符合语境。 三 　　If you can create a perfect flower arrangement for the next dinner party, it will undoubtedly be the center of attraction. 　1　 There are some ways to create beautiful flower arrangements based on seasonal fragrant flowers, and some green leaves.  Select the perfect flowers. The first step is to use fresh flowers. 　2　 If you want to have bright and summery appearance, you can choose a variety of colors for carnations, geraniums, and tulips. Such colors make the fresh flower arrangement look bright and beautiful.  　3　 Select seasonal flowers and leaves so that the entire arrangement looks like a natural handheld bunch. You can choose locally available flowers, adding broad leaves so that the entire arrangement looks natural. If you want to give the arrangement natural yet special appeal, you can add unique flowers like tulips, carnations, and orchids.  Use tropical flowers. In Australia, you can use several tropical flowers to make unique flower arrangements. These flowers can improve the beauty of any bunch. 　4　 For example, if you want to have brighter appeal, you can add tropical flowers like daisies, sunflowers, and snapdragons.  Choose a particular shape. When you select a flower arrangement, it is basic to select structure. The flowers should be such that they can easily be put in a particular shape. If you want a new moon shape, then you should select flowers that will stress the shape. You will also need stalks(梗) to help you build the shape. 　5　  A.Create perfect flower arrangements.

Only you can change your life by changing the choices you make. Take responsibility for everything in your life. Even if it's not in your direct control, you can always choose how you respond.  　3　 If you choose what is fun and easy over what is necessary, you will never reach the levels of success and happiness you are capable of achieving in your life. That's because every great victory requires great sacrifice. If success were easy, everybody would be successful.  There is nothing that you can't achieve with hard work. People often think that their lives will suddenly change through some magical events in the future.　4　 Your life changes only to the extent that you change. Nothing will ever change if you don't change what you do daily.  A great way to actively create your future is to ask yourself: If I already achieved my goals, how would I act on a daily basis? What books would I read, how often would I work out, and how would I spend my time at the office?　5　  A.But that is not the case. B.No one else is responsible for your life. C.Now these questions seem like magic to you. D.Nothing else can be the drive for your success. E.Once you answer these questions, you know what to do. F.The biggest enemy to success is the path of least resistance. G.You can blame other people for your lack of happiness all life long. 答案 [语篇解读] 语篇类型:说明文。 主题语境:人与自我。主旨:如何过上成功生活的建议。 1.B　过渡句。根据上文“没有人能为你爬上成功的阶梯”和下文“从你离开父母家的那一天起,你就要为自己的生活和所作的选择负责”可知,设空处内容强调我们要对自己负责,这与B项“没有其他人对你的生活负责”吻合,其中responsible是关键词。 2.G　细节句。根据下文“然而,这并没有改变什么。只有你能通过改变自己的选择来改变自己的人生”可推知,设空处陈述了一种我们常常做但却没有任何意义、不能对自己的人生作出任何改变的行为。G项“你可以将一生的不幸福归咎于他人”符合题意,下文的it指代选项所陈述的内容。 3.F　主旨句。根据下文可知,成功需要牺牲,选择简单和乐趣是不能成功的。由此推知,设空处提出成功忌讳选择简单容易的方式。F项“成功的最大敌人是阻力最小的道路”符合题意,其中the path of least resistance对应下文的what is fun and easy。 4.A　过渡句。根据上下文可知,生活不会因为一些神奇的事情而改变,除非你自己作出改变。由此推知,设空处陈述上文提到的情况并非事实。A项“但事实并非如此”承上启下,符合语境。 5.E　总结句。上文提出了三个问题。由此推知,设空处陈述的内容应与这三个问题相关。E项“一旦你回答了这些问题,你就知道该怎么做了”符合语境,these questions指上文的三个问题。 五 　　During my stay in Hawaii for further studies in 1983—1984, I saw many Japanese tourists enjoying the sun and sand on Waikiki Beach or shopping in the malls. 　1　  At that time the monthly income of an average Chinese worker was about 30 yuan—the exchange rate then was about 2 yuan to one US dollar—not enough to even make ends meet for most of the families. 　2　  But that dream has come true. About 10 years ago, when I visited Hawaii again to attend a conference hosted by the East⁃West Center, I found Chinese tourists had replaced Japanese tourists both on the beach and in the malls. 　3　  The country's rapid economic development has enabled millions of Chinese people to travel abroad. In 2019, Chinese people made 155 million overseas visits, making China the top source of outbound tourists in the world, far ahead of second⁃ and third⁃placed Germany and the United States. Chinese tourists spend about $130 billion abroad every year. 　4　 Chinese tourists today can be found in all the corners of the world, from Waikiki Beach to the Sahara Desert, from the Arctic to the Antarctic.  　5　 At that time some Chinese, who had relatives in Singapore and Thailand, were given visas to travel to those countries if the relatives sponsored their visits. The same mode was adopted for those who had relatives in the Hong Kong and Macao special administrative regions and, later, Taiwan, China.  A.The trend started 30 years ago. B.Chinese tourists prefer guided tours. C.Only the Chinese tourists were shopping more crazily. D.They spend more than tourists from any other country. E.As a result, traveling abroad was a dream for most Chinese. F.As a student from a poor country, I hoped someday the tourists would include Chinese. G.And most of those who travel in groups are retired people or inexperienced, young tourists. 答案 [语篇解读] 语篇类型:说明文。主题语境:人与社会。 主旨:中国人出国旅游的历史及其快速发展。 1.F　过渡句。由上文1983—1984年作者在夏威夷进修期间见到的日本游客游玩的情况,及下文对中国人当时的收入的介绍可推知,空处应是作者希望有朝一日中国人也能出国度假。这与F项中“I hoped someday the tourists would include Chinese” 吻合。 2.E　过渡句。上文描写了那个时候中国人收入很低,大多数家庭入不敷出,由此推断空处应是中国人收入低导致没办法出国旅游,这与E项“As a result, traveling abroad was a dream for most Chinese.”吻合,且选项中的dream和下文的dream相呼应。 3.C　细节句。上文讲述当作者再次访问夏威夷时,发现中国游客已经取代了日本游客。C项“Only the Chinese tourists were shopping more crazily.”承接上文,进一步描写中国游客取代日本游客的情况。需要注意的是这里容易误选D项,但是D项用的是一般现在时,说的是现在的情况,而非十年前的情况。 4.D　细节句。上文说中国游客每年在国外花费大约一千三百亿美元,这一数字当数全世界第一。D项“They spend more than tourists from any other country.” 承接上文,进一步说明了中国游客每年在国外消费很多。 5.A　主旨句。根据空处下一句中的“At that time”可知,空处应该是描写出国旅游这一趋势开始的时间。A项“The trend started 30 years ago.”符合语境,其中“30 years ago”和下句中的“At that time”相呼应。 原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！1 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
