限时规范训练(16) 必修第三册 UNIT 5 THE VALUE OF MONEY（word课时作业）-【高考领航】2025年高考英语大一轮复习（人教版2019）

(限时：30分钟) Ⅰ.阅读理解 A (2024·湖北部分重点中学高三联考)Happiness，as I see it，comprises five elements：spiritual well-being (meaning and purpose)，physical well-being (nutrition，exercise)，intellectual well-being (curiosity，deep learning)，relational well-being (kindness and generosity)，and emotional well-being (cultivating positive emotions)．As an interdependent aggregate of these five elements of SPIRE，happiness is about much more than experiencing pleasure. As Aristotle put it，happiness is the ultimate purpose of life，meaning how we spend our everyday lives is ultimately guided by what we think would make us happier.This is not a good or a bad thing.It simply is，like the law of nature.Even people who are tirelessly working for an important cause，for example，to get rid of world hunger，are doing it because they find their work meaningful.Meaning is an element of happiness. One barrier to happiness has to do with the expectation that happiness is an unbroken chain of positive emotions.This expectation，however，prevents people from experiencing happiness because painful emotions don't go away but grow stronger when we reject them. The second barrier has to do with equating happiness with success.It's a commonly held belief that happiness can be attained by achieving certain goals，like money or fame.People tend to think if they finally find success，they will automatically become happy. The third barrier has to do with the way people pursue happiness.We want to be happy for many reasons.After all，we are constantly told that happiness is good for our health，relationships，and work outcomes.Yet，if I wake up in the morning and decide to pursue happiness straight，I will become less happy. But how? Indirectly.As is known，if you look up at the sun directly，you'll hurt yourself.But if you take the same sun rays and break them down，you'll enjoy the colors of a rainbow.Similarly，pursuing happiness directly can hurt us; pursuing it indirectly—by breaking it down into something like the SPIRE elements—can contribute to our well-being.Starting a meditation practice，exercising，performing acts of kindness，learning something new，or expressing gratitude for what we have are all indirect ways of pursuing happiness. 【语篇解读】　本文是一篇议论文。作者探讨了幸福的五大组成部分(SPIRE)及三种追求幸福路上的障碍，并认为间接追求幸福是最好的方式。 1．What does the underlined word “aggregate” probably mean in the first paragraph? A．Combination.　　　 B．Conclusion. C．Accumulation. D．Association. 解析：A　词义猜测题。根据第一段第一句“Happiness，as I see it，comprises five elements ...”可知，在作者看来，幸福是由五个元素组成的，即幸福是五大元素的集合或结合。 2．What's the author's attitude towards how we spend our daily lives? A．Favorable. B．Suspicious. C．Objective. D．Indifferent. 解析：C　观点态度题。根据第二段第二、三句“This is not a good or a bad thing.It simply is，like the law of nature.”可知，这不是一件好的或者坏的事情，它只是像自然法则一样。这里作者对影响我们如何度过每一天的生活的想法——以我们认为会让自己感到更快乐的事情为导向，持有客观中立态度。 3．What can we know from the text? A．Being a success leads one to happiness. B．Refusing negative feelings helps us obtain happiness. C．Going after happiness directly makes one feel happy. D．Pursuing one aspect of SPIRE can boost our well-being. 解析：D　细节理解题。根据最后一段中“pursuing it indirectly—by breaking it down into something like the SPIRE elements—can contribute to our well-being”可知，间接地追求——把它分解成像SPIRE元素之类的东西——可以有助于实现幸福，故D正确。 4．Why is the sun mentioned in the last paragraph? A．To make a contrast. B．To make an analogy. C．To conclude the argumentation. D．To answer the previous question. 解析：B　写作意图题。根据最后一段内容，直视阳光会伤害自己，然而用棱镜分解同样的阳光，就能看到彩虹的颜色。同样地，直接追求幸福也会伤害我们，而间接追求，把它分解成像SPIRE元素之类的东西，有助于我们实现幸福。所以，作者这里提及阳光是为了作类比。 B (2024·辽宁省沈阳市模拟)Stories of immigrants attract me a lot，especially the life stories of Italians who have come to America since the 1700s.In each of these stories I see elements of my own story，that of leaving my birthplace and family and creating a new life in a different culture and in a different language. The child of Italian immigrants and an award-winning scholar of Italian literature，in the book My Two Italies Joseph Luzzi struggled to create or find his own identity from an early age.Even more problematic for him was “which” Italy to “choose”，the one he inherited(继承) from his family，poor and linked to old traditions and customs he finds rude and somewhat cruel，or the one he finds in literature and art books that show him a country with a modern literary culture. The choice becomes even sadder as in his professional life he becomes a scholar of Italian literature and culture.He describes episodes of his youth that show the clash between the first and the second generation immigrants that are both funny and tragicomic (悲喜剧式的)．These episodes highlight the daily customs his parents brought from their hometown that are in conflict with Joseph's desire to “fit in” the American culture.Joseph's visits to Italy as a student and then as a scholar deepen the divide between his two Italies and highlight his quest for identity. The author's personal changes are full of quotes and comments on the cultural and political landscape of Italy.I find that his insights on contemporary Italian cultural and political phenomena are particularly interesting.In this book，Joseph touches or comments in depth about several issues concerning Italian life，such as the relationship between dialects(方言) and the official “Italian” language，and the Southern “question” or the uneasy interaction between Northern and Southern Italians. I enjoyed reading this book.It is personal，moving，educational and entertaining.I hope you will enjoy it too! 【语篇解读】　本文是一篇书评。文章主要推荐了作家Joseph Luzzi的书《我的两个意大利》，谈论了这本书的写作背景、内容以及作者对这本书的看法。 5．Why is the author interested in stories of immigrants? A．He came to America in 1700. B．He wants to live an Italian life. C．He can see himself in these stories. D．He likes to learn the Italian language. 解析：C　细节理解题。根据文章第一段可知，作者喜欢读移民的故事是因为从中看到了自己。 6．Which of the following is more difficult for Joseph to deal with? A．Choosing right Italian identity. B．Inheriting his parents' wealth. C．Bridging the generation gap. D．Becoming a literary scholar. 解析：A　推理判断题。根据文章第二段中“Even more problematic for him was ‘which’ Italy to ‘choose’，the one he inherited(继承) from his family，poor and linked to old traditions and customs he finds rude and somewhat cruel，or the one he finds in literature and art books that show him a country with a modern literary culture.”可知，Joseph觉得很难去选择自己属于哪一个意大利。 7．What does the underlined word “clash” mean in Paragraph 3? A．Cooperation.　　　　 B．Distance. C．Similarity. D．Conflict. 解析：D　词义猜测题。根据画线单词下一句“这些情节突出了他父母从家乡带来的日常习俗，这与Joseph‘融入’美国文化的愿望相冲突。”可知，画线单词的意思和“冲突、分歧”相似。故选D。 8．What is the text? A．A news report. B．A book review. C．A children's story. D．A diary entry. 解析：B　推理判断题。根据文章第二段中“The child of Italian immigrants and an award-winning scholar of Italian literature，in the book My Two Italies Joseph Luzzi struggled to create or find his own identity from an early age.”可知，作者阅读了Joseph Luzzi的这本书。再根据文章主要内容以及最后一段可判断，本文是一篇书评，是作者在看了Joseph Luzzi的书《我的两个意大利》给出的评价。 Ⅱ.七选五 (2024·四川省成都市高三摸底测试)How do you express gratitude in your everyday life? For me，it sometimes feels worrying: hand-writing hundreds of thank you cards after an anniversary，or making sure to eat every last bite on my plate so my grandma wouldn't think I was ungrateful for the meal. 1 Here are some tips about how to be better at showing gratitude. Start a gratitude journal or write a letter.Make it a habit to put down the things that you're thankful for. 2 There's also some evidence that it could lower your risk of heart disease and symptoms of depression for some people.Think of someone in your life who you have not had the chance to thank.Think of a specific instance when they helped you.Then，it's a good idea to send them a letter. 3 4 Look around in your immediate space，and take notice of everything that makes up your environment: the sky，the cool wind，the warmth of your sweater.The act of simply noticing and naming things is a great way to stretch your gratitude muscle as well as obtain some clarity on the strength of all the unique connections in your life. Bear in mind the difference between saying “thanks to”and“thanks for”．Being grateful “for” something can be a little unclear or general. 5 It encourages specificity and reminds you of your connection with and responsibility to that person or thing. A．Stretch your gratitude muscle. B．Notice the world surrounding you. C．Better still，deliver it in person and read it to them. D．A habitual gratitude journal will certainly benefit us. E．But experts say it doesn't have to be that complicated. F．In fact，this habit reduces materialism and enhances generosity. G．Being grateful “to” something or someone implies a direct relationship. 【语篇解读】　本文是一篇说明文。作者介绍了在日常生活中表达感激之情的几个简单方法。 1．解析：E　根据空格上下文可知，空处应为承接前文介绍自己表达感恩的方式，并引出后文介绍更为简单的感恩方式，与E项上下文一致，故选E。 2．解析：F　根据前文“Start a gratitude journal or write a letter.Make it a habit to put down the things that you're thankful for.”及下文“There's also some evidence that it could lower your risk of heart disease and symptoms of depression for some people.”可知空处应为写一本感恩日记或者写一封信的好处，空前的“a habit”与F项中的“this habit”为同词复现，且与上下文一致，故选F。 3．解析：C　根据前文“Think of someone in your life who you have not had the chance to thank.Think of a specific instance when they helped you.Then，it's a good idea to send them a letter.”可知， C项“Better still，deliver it in person and read it to them.”承接前文给要感谢的人写信的建议，并构成递进关系——亲自交给他们，并读给他们听。 4．解析：B　根据下文“Look around in your immediate space，and take notice of everything that makes up your environment: the sky，the cool wind，the warmth of your sweater.”可知，本段的主题为“注意你周围的世界”，故选B。 5．解析：G　根据前文“Bear in mind the difference between saying ‘thanks to’ and ‘thanks for’．Being grateful ‘for’ something can be a little unclear or general.”可知，空格处应承接前文“thanks to” and “thanks for”的介绍，G项与“thanks for”呼应，并介绍了“thanks to”，故选G项。 Ⅲ.语法填空 (2024·河北省衡水中学高三调考)Yunnan is the hometown of tea.It provides the ideal climate and the ecological environment for large-leaf tea trees，which are located in the 1.
