Ⅰ.阅读理解
(2024·苏北四市调研)By my mid-20s, I'd finished my Master's in Psychology, and I was working in Dublin as a health researcher. It was mostly data and statistics work which required staring at a screen. I was earning more than most of my friends, living the city life, going out at weekends. I had a good pension (养老金) and annual leave but it caused a lot of anxiety and worry. I was really unhappy.
语篇训练
I wanted to get back to feeling passionate about something so I started thinking about the things I used to love. As a child, I'd always been involved in the outdoors, and I used to love hiking but all that had stopped after secondary school. I decided to volunteer with a local youth group and within a month, I went camping with them. I absolutely loved it. It was like switching on a lightbulb. This was what I'd been missing.
I started taking courses in mountain skills and wilderness first aid, and in August I was working my usual job in the week, and I was a climbing club leader at weekends. I loved connecting with nature,connecting with other people.
Through all this, I learnt about the whole field of nature-based therapies (疗法). It was the perfect fit to combine my psychology background with my passion for the outdoors. I began taking courses in wild therapy, forest bathing and ecopsychology.I left my government job and in July 2020 I launched my business Nature Therapy Ireland,which is booming now.
I'd thought I'd always live in a city but last year, I moved to Tipperary to live at the foot of a mountain,surrounded by nature. If I'm feeling stressed, I can step outside in my bare feet and stand on the grass to ground myself. In Dublin, the front door felt like a barrier — I had to have my keys, my phone, my jacket before I could even go out and find a green space. My life now is leading nature connection hikes and forest bathing walks. My salary has halved for the moment but I've adjusted. I've never looked back.

Ⅱ.阅读七选五
(2024·德州模拟)Anger is the most destructive emotion.When you are in a temper, you make hasty ill-considered decisions that you will probably regret.You will also regret reckless language spoken without thought. 5 Here are some ways that you can combat the causes of anger.
6 You have to accept that sometimes things do go wrong and that people are not always lovely.Try to accept that other people do behave in ways that will make you both frustrated and angry.Often, there might be an excellent reason why a person acted in a way that you found unacceptable.
Realizing that no one is perfect is a good start to avoiding getting angry. 7 Neither will they behave in the same way that you would in a given situation.
Reacting angrily is a hard habit to break.The trick is to avoid reacting when faced with a situation that usually angers.Anger is a negative reaction, but in this type of situation, there is no value in reacting by forming positive thoughts. 8 This way, your anger will not get the emotional food it needs to survive.
Don't take the easy way when you get angry.We all get tempted to throw something, hit something, or scream when we are angry.You might say you feel better after an angry outburst, but that is just the after-effect of the adrenalin (肾上腺素) your body released while you were angry.A reaction like that is the easy way.It is much harder to stay calm, to walk away from conflict, or to take a deep breath and act normally.____

A.Stop trying to manage your anger.
B.What can be done to control anger?
C.You need to learn not to respond at all.
D.That, however, is what you must do if you are to stop anger.
E.You need to change your attitude to the way the world works.
F.Taking positive steps will help you overcome feelings of anger.
G.Also, you need to accept that not everyone has the same standards as you.
语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了几种可以帮助对抗愤怒的方法。
5.选B 根据上下文可知,空处应是过渡句,由生气的坏处过渡到如何克服愤怒,故B项(怎样才能控制愤怒呢?)承上启下,符合语境。
6.选E 空处位于段首,是本段的中心句。根据后文可知,本段主要讲述了你需要改变对世界运作方式的态度,故E项可概括本段主旨。
7.选G 根据上下文可知,本段主要讲述了不要用自己的标准去看待他人,故G项(此外,你需要接受并不是每个人都有和你一样的标准)承上启下,符合语境。
8.选C 根据前文可知,本段主要讲述了不要在愤怒的情况下作出反应,下文提到了这么做的原因,故C项(你要学会完全不回应)承上启下,符合语境。
9.选D 根据前文可知,生气时人们很容易选择发泄出来,但要想保持冷静,远离冲突,或者深呼吸,正常行事,就要困难得多。故D项(然而,如果你要停止愤怒,那就是你必须做的)和前文构成转折关系,符合语境。
Ⅲ.读后续写
阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
(2024·苏北四市调研)Sista raced ahead, the sea breeze streaming against her face. Rafi finally caught up and then they rested in the shade.
“Now I'm hungry. I know where there's a great apple tree,” Sista said. “It belongs to an old lady called Susan who lives in the little house by the hill. I heard she's stubborn, but that sometimes she gives fruit in return for an errand (差事).”
“Let's go,” Rafi said.They crossed a stream by hopping from rock to rock. Finally, upon a hilltop, they saw a splendid apple tree with bright red fruits.
A small farmhouse stood at the bottom of the hill. Rafi's heart pounded as Sista knocked on the door. An elderly woman answered.
“Yes?” the lady asked, staring at the girls.
“We heard ...” said Sista, her voice shaky, “that we could run an errand for you in exchange for apples.”
Susan raised one eyebrow. “Ah, yes,” she clicked her tongue. “Nothing is free, eh?”
She led the girls into the kitchen. When passing the living room, Sista found that the wall was decorated with colourful crayon drawings, which seem to be children's.She wondered who drew these since Susan was alone, with no grandchildren,even no families or relatives. The lady grabbed two baskets, one large and one small, and pushed them into the girls' hands. “Go fill these with apples. Come right back.”
The girls raced up the hill to the tree, climbed the branches, and picked the ripest apples. After filling the baskets, they returned to the house.
Susan filled a bag with rice and dried beans, and then she handed it to Sista. “Take this bag and the large basket of apples to the Gomez family. Do you know them?”
The girls nodded. Sista had heard that Mr Gomez has been sick in bed for a long time and that Mrs Gomez has to raise three little kids.
“Good. And ask them for the payment,” Susan added with a tight smile.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式作答。
The girls hit the road.
When Susan opened the envelope, the girls saw the payment!
参考范文:
The girls hit the road. All the way, the girls wrestled with the bag and the large basket of apples. “What a heavy basket!” they complained. Finally, they arrived at the Gomez home, sweating like a pig. Mrs Gomez answered the door. The girls held up the food and said, “This is from Susan.” Mrs Gomez replied, “Thank you.” Rafi looked down. “She said to ask you for the payment, too.” Mrs Gomez handed Sista a large sealed envelope stuffed very full. Back at the farmhouse, the girls immediately handed Susan the envelope.
When Susan opened the envelope, the girls saw the payment! “Beautiful!” She began taping the crayon drawings on the wall. Rafi and Sista broke out in smiles, now knowing that what Susan had done was actually not a deal but a favor for the family.After Susan finished, she joined the girls again. “And here's your payment,” she said, handing the small basket of apples to the girls. As they walked home, Rafi and Sista enjoyed their treat. The juice was as sweet and warm as the feeling they had inside.
