课时作业评价
Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
(2024·临沂模拟)From Santa Barbara to Scotland, strangers are becoming friends by going on bike rides together.They get paired up by Cycling Without Age, an organization that helps seniors go for bike rides, even if they can't pedal themselves.
Hugh Lyon and David Lawrence, who are roughly 20 years apart in age, have been riding together for years.The 56-year-old Lawrence serves as a “pilot”, driving the trishaw — a bike with a passenger seat in the front that Cycling Without Age uses for their rides.They go for rides about once a week, often discussing the history of their town.
“Despite my deceased parents, it gives me a connection with people from an older generation,” said Lawrence, “and I enjoy spending time with them and hearing their stories.”
The pair have formed a friendship outside of cycling.Lawrence said he calls Lyon often and goes to the gym with him to help him with exercises he can't do on his own.
Ole Kassow, who founded Cycling Without Age, said that's the power of the program.“The truly powerful thing about these bike rides is that they tie people and stories together to create new relationships,” he told CBS News.“In my friendships — and the ability to form new relationships at any age — are what define a good life, and often also a long and happy life.”
John Boettner started the Santa Barbara chapter.He has one rule for passengers.“They say, ‘What does it cost if I'm going to go for a ride?’ I say, ‘Here's what it costs: You have to wave.If you don't wave, I'm going to kick you out,’” he joked.He said he likes when they hit red lights, because it gives them a chance to connect with people on the road.“Driving the trishaw is the best advertisement for Cycling Without Age.” Boettner said, “When you take a 101-year-old woman for a bike ride and she holds your hand tight and says thank you and gives you a kiss on the cheek, it doesn't get any better than that.”
语篇解读:本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了“银发骑车行”通过组织志愿者骑车搭载安养院的老人出游,让他们重新和外界建立联系,也让原本不认识的陌生人之间建立友谊。

B
(2024·菏泽模拟)One person's happiness causes a chain reaction that benefits not only their friends, but their friends' friends, and their friends' friends' friends. The effect lasts for up to one year. The opposite, interestingly, is not the case: Sadness does not spread through social networks as strongly as happiness. Happiness appears to love company more so than misery.
Focusing on 4,739 individuals, Christakis and Fowler, who co-authored this study, observed more than 50,000 social and family ties and analyzed the spread of happiness throughout this group. The researchers found that when an individual becomes happy, a friend living within a mile experiences a 25 percent increased chance of becoming happy. A co-resident spouse (配偶) experiences an 8 percent increased chance, siblings (兄弟姐妹)
living within one mile have a 14 percent increased chance, and for next-door neighbors, 34 percent. But the real surprise came with indirect relationships. Again, while an individual becoming happy increases his friend's chances, a friend of that friend experiences a nearly 10 percent chance of increased happiness, and a friend of that friend has a 5.6 percent increased chance.
The researchers also found that, contrary to what your parents taught you, popularity does lead to happiness. People in the center of their network groups are the most likely people to become happy, and then there are chances that increase to the extent that the people surrounding them also have lots of friends. However, becoming happy does not help migrate a person from the network fringe (外围) to the center. Happiness spreads through the network without changing its structure.
“Imagine a bird's eye view of a backyard party,” Fowler explains. “You'll see people in groups at the center, and others on the fringe. The happiest people tend to be the ones in the center. But someone on the fringe who suddenly becomes happy, say through a particular exchange, doesn't suddenly move into the center of the group. He simply stays where he is — only now he has a far more satisfying sense of well-being.”
Next time, if you're happy and you know it, thank your friends — and their friends. And while you're at it, their friends' friends. But if you're sad, hold the blame.
语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一个观点:个人的幸福可以通过社交网络传播,因此一个人的幸福与朋友以及朋友的朋友有关。
5.Who will be more likely to become happy as a man is happy according to the research?
A.His wife.
B.His next-door neighbors.
C.His brothers and sisters.
D.A friend of his friend.
√
解析:细节理解题。根据第二段中“The researchers found that ... for next-door neighbors, 34 percent.”可知,一个人开心的时候,最有可能因此变得开心的是他的邻居。
6.Why does Fowler mention a backyard party in paragraph 4?
A.To explain a rule.
B.To clarify a concept.
C.To describe a fact.
D.To make a prediction.
√
解析:推理判断题。根据第四段第一句可知,福勒提出这个聚会的目的是为了解释某个和网络中最开心的人的位置相关的概念;第三段最后两句提出了需要解释的观点:因为幸福通过网络传播,不改变网络的结构,因此一个人变得快乐并不会使他从网络的边缘迁移到中心。
7.What does the research aim to tell us?
A.Happiness changes social structures.
B.A social network is a double-edged sword.
C.Happiness goes hand in hand with sadness.
D.Happiness spreads through social networks.
√
解析:推理判断题。根据第三段最后两句“However, becoming happy ... its structure.”可知,本研究旨在告诉读者幸福通过社交网络传播。
8.What do we know from the last two paragraphs?
A.Friends' friends may bring you happiness.
B.Your friends are to blame for your sadness.
C.Your friends decide whether you are happy.
D.The happiest friends at party are on the fringe.
√
解析:推理判断题。根据最后一段第一句可知,作者建议读者如果开心,那就得感谢朋友和朋友的朋友,可推测这是因为一个人的快乐可能是朋友或者朋友的朋友带来的。
Ⅱ.阅读七选五
When I was teaching, we talked a lot about high vs low-stakes (风险) writing.Recently, I've been thinking about friendships the same way — high and low-stakes friendships.Since the stakes might be different for men and women, I will limit this discussion to women's friendships with men and women.___9__
Friendships are high stakes when they are intimate. 10 We also depend on the other person for support in difficult times; advice in times of conflict, and sympathy in times of regret.We feel “known” by them.The loss of a high-stakes friend is painful: it has a noticeable impact on our lives.
Low-stakes friendships, on the other hand, are more casual and limited emotionally.We may play bridge or tennis together; go out for dinner with our partners. 11 We don't share any feeling or experience that would make us feel emotionally fragile and we do not talk about feelings toward each other.The loss of a low-stakes friend may be regrettable, but it does not leave any mark in our lives.
According to Professor Harry Stack Sullivan, the first high-stakes friendship is typically formed in preadolescence with friend of the same sex, a “chum” (密友).Chumship is a relationship in which the other person's interest and security become as important as one's own.
12 The preadolescent who successfully enters a chumship finds someone with whom she can share her innermost thoughts and feelings.To her chum, she can reveal what she feels to be the most terrible things about herself in an atmosphere of acceptance.Successful chumships offer an opportunity to work through disagreements and learn to compromise. 13__
A.But we do not feel “known”.
B.What do I mean by high and low-stakes friendships?
C.The formation of chumship is crucial to personality growth.
D.It is a developmental stage that lays the groundwork for later relationships.
E.We share feelings about important aspects of our lives and about each other.
F.An end to the friendship would have a dramatic impact on our sense of well-being.
G.Chumships occur during preadolescence (10-12), but they can continue much longer than that.
语篇解读:本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讲述了高风险和低风险的友谊。
9.选B 第一段提到友谊有高风险和低风险两种模式,且第二、三段分别介绍高风险和低风险友谊的内涵。B选项起承上启下的作用。
10.选E 根据空前一句可知,接下来是对高风险友谊的描述。E选项是高风险友谊的描述之一。
11.选A 根据第三段第一句可知,本段讲述的是低风险的友谊,彼此并不亲密。A选项是对低风险友谊的阐述。
12.选C 根据空后一句可知,该段主要讲密友关系的重要性,故C项符合语境。
13.选D 根据空前一句可知,这是在讲形成密友关系带来的好处和机会。因此,D选项承接上文。
Ⅲ.完形填空
