But it has all been from the vantage point (制高点) of his mother’s back. Fulfilling a promise she made to herself to give her disabled son the best life she possibly could, Niki Antram has spent years travelling the globe with Jimmy clinging (紧贴) to her shoulders. Jimmy was born with physical and mental disabilities, including blindness, and requires round-the-clock care from Ms Antram. He has a wheelchair, but Ms Antram has never enjoyed using it. She’s content to carry him while she’s physically able and helps him walk short distances on his own. Incredible photographs taken around the globe show him clinging on as they hike through mountains and rain forests. Ms Antram makes a detailed plan and calls ahead for every place she wants to visit—whether it be a restaurant or hotel.“Even if I know we will be okay, I like to inform the companies to make sure they understand and are okay with having us there,” she says. She counts herself lucky that they have similar interests. They both enjoy the outdoors, the water and adventures. “From Hawaii to Bali I’d be staying out all night with Jimmy because he was a party animal like me at the time,” she says. “I will find ways with Jimmy to get him the best and most adventurous life.” When they’re not travelling, they wake up in the morning and go for a bike ride Jimmy in the trailer while his mother peddles for them both—as the sun rises. The pair smile and wave as they pass their neighbors. People who were once strangers have come to know and love Jimmy, and admire Ms Antram. Before their early outing, she’s already made breakfast, fed Jimmy and dressed him for the day. Her schedule is exhausting, but she’s determined to give Jimmy the best life she can provide. Ms Antram says her heart “broke” the day she learned her son was permanently blind and it took a long time to overcome those feelings of hurt. “Being a mom, I didn’t get that carefree life that most moms get,” she says. “I had responsibility.” 4. Why does Ms Antram carry Jimmy on her back instead of using a wheelchair? A. The wheelchair causes some inconvenience. B. Jimmy prefers to enjoy scenery from her back. C. Carrying Jimmy gives her a sense of achievement. D. She wants to show her commitment to loving her son. 5. What can we learn about Ms Antram and Jimmy? A. They have both an appetite for adventures. B. They are sick of dealing with their neighbors. C. They stay out sometimes to get closer to animals. D. They are frequently rejected by different companies. 6. Which of the following can best describe Niki Antram? A. Ambitious and courageous. B. Adventurous and optimistic. C. Open-minded and considerate. D. Strong-willed and responsible. 7. What might be the most suitable title for the text? A. On the Road: Life Full of Adventures B. A Great Single Mother: Love Heals Everything C. Hit the Road: Blindness Can Never Hold You Back D World Tour on the Back: A Single Mom and Her Disabled Son C Comfort food makes a person feel good. Food high in sugar or fat tends to improve mood by stimulating the brain’s reward system. So it makes sense that many of us may turn to food for comfort in times of stress. There’s some fascinating research that examines food as a source of comfort. However, the most interesting thing about this research may be that foods are far less comforting than we tend to believe they are. Traci Mann, a professor of psychology, and colleagues conducted a series of study with college students. The researchers examined how much comfort foods actually improve mood. They provided students with one of the three foods that they had indicated were their top, personal comfort foods. After producing a negative mood by having them watch movie clips designed to increase their sadness, anger and anxiety, the researchers offered the students their comfort food. They had to assess (评估) how they felt before and after they were supposedly comforted by ice cream, pizza or whatever they had indicated they typically ate to feel better. All of the students completed the study on two separate occasions: once when they were able to eat their comfort food and once when they were able to eat another food they liked, but they wouldn’t call a comfort food. The researchers found that comfort food did improve students’ moods — but only by a little bit and not more than the other food they liked. In another study, comfort food was compared to no food at all, and students’ moods seemed to improve even when they didn’t eat anything—most likely just due to the passage of time. The take-home message from the studies? While the comfort food may make the person feel better for the time being, it does little to address emotional problems. Of course, everyone can indulge(纵情)in a comfort food from time to time, but overall, aim for these instances to be the exception rather than the rule. 8. Which aspect of comfort food do Tract Mann’s studies focus on? A. The means by which it affects mood. B. Its role in reducing negativity. C. Its impact on physical health. D. The extent to which it lifts mood. 9. How were the studies carried out? A. By analyzing questionnaires about comfort foods. B. By observing students’ different reactions to foods. C. By collecting data about people from all walks of life D. By comparing students’ feelings on different occasions. 10. What does the author intend to do in the last paragraph? A. To explain a rule. B. To introduce a concept. C. To make a suggestion. D. To present a fact. 11. What is a suitable title for the text? A. The Science behind Comfort Food B. Comfort Food May not Work Wonders C. Feeling Negative? Try Comfort Food D. Comfort Food Tends to Be Unhealthy D What strategy do you use to make tough life decisions like whether to end a relationship, quit your job, or go back to school? Maybe you weigh the advantages and disadvantages. Maybe you go with your sixth sense. Or maybe, if you’re like most people, you simply do nothing. After all, we have a tendency to prefer the status quo (现状), and focus more on the potential losses involved with change rather than the potential benefits. But here’s a simpler strategy: When you’re indecisive about a big life decision, choose the path of change. That’s the takeaway of research recently published by Steven Levitt, an economist at the University of Chicago. For the study, Levitt asked people who were facing tough decisions to flip (抛) a digital coin on the website FreakonomicsExperiments.com. The coin tosses were randomized, with one side representing change, the other status quo. The study asked more than 20,000 participants to make whichever decision the coin toss directed, and then report back on how things played out after two and six months. Of course, not everyone followed through. The two-month survey found that participants chose change less frequently than they had initially predicted they would. After six months, however, this tendency toward inaction disappeared. But most surprising were the results on well-being. At both the two and six-month marks, most people who chose change reported feeling happier, better off, and that they had made the correct decision. The study had some limitations. One is that its participants weren’t selected randomly. Another limitation is that participants whose decision didn’t play out well might have been less likely to report back on their status after two and six months. Still the study does suggest that people who are on the edge of a tough decision are probably better off going with change. Levitt isn’t suggesting you flip a coin to make all decisions. But coin-flipping does seem to have some benefits. Levitt notes that some people might prefer giving in to their fate to randomness in order to avoid regret. But you can also use randomness a bit more sensibly. When facing a tough decision, you could flip a coin and, upon seeing the outcome, notice whether you feel relief or fright. If you feel relieved, that’s probably the path you should choose. 12. What is most people’s priority when making hard choices? A. Valuing potential benefits. B. Calculating potential losses. C. Making a change to the status quo. D. Following inner voice of one’s mind. 13. What are the findings of the two surveys? A. More participants remained inactive after six months. B. Making changes brought most participants happiness. C. Participants’ action agreed with their initial prediction. D. All participants gave immediate feedback on their status. 14. What is a limitation of the study? A. The insufficiency of study statistics. B. The insensible outcome of the analysis. C. The incorrect method of flipping a coin. D. The randomness of picking study subjects. 15. What is the main idea of the passage? A. Coin flips are beneficial to making hard choices. B. A study offers a strategy for making hard decisions. C. When facing a hard decision, choose the status quo. D. A study justifies making hard choices with randomness. 第二节（共5个小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 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。 Reading is essential but how can one choose the right books to read and where can one find them? A few famous people may give you some helpful tips. ● Read books from past eras. ___16___ Otherwise you’d be “completely dependent on the prejudices and fashions of your times,” just as Albert Einstein put it. “Somebody who reads only newspapers and books of contemporary authors looks to me like an extremely near-sighted person who dislikes eyeglasses,” he said. ● ___17___ Reading too wide a variety in too short a time would keep the teachings from leaving a lasting impression on you. Seneca the Younger, a first-century Roman philosopher, suggested that “you must linger (流连) among a limited number of master thinkers, and digest their works, if you would obtain ideas which shall win firm hold in your mind.” ● Shop at secondhand bookstores. Virginia Woolf believed the works in secondhand bookstores have an attraction which the usual volumes of the library lack. Browsing through these books gives you the chance to run into something that wouldn’t have risen to the attention of librarians and booksellers. ___18___ ● Check out authors’ reading lists. In his 1940 guide How to Read a Book, American philosopher Mortimer J. Adler talked about how to choose books. He attached importance to those that other authors consider worth reading. ___19___ Mortimer wrote that “one way to understand them is to read the books they read.” ● Make the final decision by yourself. ___20___ It’s you yourself who should choose what, how and when to read. Theodore Roosevelt recommended choosing books on subjects that interest you and letting your mood guide you to your next great read. A. Interest is the best teacher. B. Great authors are great readers. C. Leave some room for older works. D. Learn more about those great authors. E. Don’t jump too quickly from book to book. F. There’s no “best books” list that everyone should follow. G. Usually they are much more selective in organizing their collections. 第三部分 语言知识运用（共三节，满分30分） 第一节 完形填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） In April, the lockdown in Morris Township was coming to an end.

One day, Eric noticed a young teenage boy standing in front of a drugstore. He approached him, and found out that the boy wanted to buy medicine for his sick mother, but had no money. The boy cried out, “if I don’t bring home medicine, my mom will die. But I won’t be able to handle it.” Upon hearing this, Erie didn’t hesitate to pay for the medicine. “I’ll pay for the medicine on his behalf,” he said, handing the pharmacist (药剂师) a couple of bills from his pocket. The boy looked at Erie with grateful eyes, and cried, “Thank you so much. You are heaven-sent.” “There will always be people willing to help you, son,” Eric told him before handing him two portions of food. “Here, take this to your mom and have a hot meal with her,” he said before letting the boy go. His daughter Riley saw the whole scene and said, “Dad, we have barely enough money. Why did you pay for the medicine?” “Riley, the good you put out into the world will eventually find its way back to you. Just keep doing good,” Eric told his daughter. When Riley turned thirty, she needed an operation urgently after being told there was something wrong with her heart. With difficulty breathing, Eric rushed Riley to the hospital in an ambulance. “You’ll be alright, Riley.” he cried. “Don’t worry, Daddy is here. We’ll get through this together,” he promised her. Eric did try his best to find the money for bis daughter’s operation. He asked all of his friends, but it was still not enough. Therefore, Eric decided to sell their house. It was enough to pay for her operation, but they would be left with nothing, “it’s okay,” he told himself. I will be able to earn money again, but if I lose my daughter, nothing will ever bring her back.” By the time Erie made it back to the hospital, Riley was in her hospital room, weak and pale. He sat beside her bed and held her hand. “You’ll be okay, my sweet daughter. We’ll soon have the money for the operation,” he promised her. 注意: 1. 续写词数应为: 150 左右; 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Para 1: Eric suddenly noticed an envelope on the bed. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Para2: He ran to the doctor’s office and hugged him. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 听力 CABBC CBBCB BCAAB ACACA 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 江苏省平潮高级中学2023-2024年度第二学期高三英语一 第一节(共5小题;每小题1.5分，满分7.5分) 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1.

They both enjoy the outdoors, the water and adventures. “From Hawaii to Bali I’d be staying out all night with Jimmy because he was a party animal like me at the time,” she says. “I will find ways with Jimmy to get him the best and most adventurous life.” When they’re not travelling, they wake up in the morning and go for a bike ride Jimmy in the trailer while his mother peddles for them both—as the sun rises. The pair smile and wave as they pass their neighbors. People who were once strangers have come to know and love Jimmy, and admire Ms Antram. Before their early outing, she’s already made breakfast, fed Jimmy and dressed him for the day. Her schedule is exhausting, but she’s determined to give Jimmy the best life she can provide. Ms Antram says her heart “broke” the day she learned her son was permanently blind and it took a long time to overcome those feelings of hurt. “Being a mom, I didn’t get that carefree life that most moms get,” she says. “I had responsibility.” 4. Why does Ms Antram carry Jimmy on her back instead of using a wheelchair? A. The wheelchair causes some inconvenience. B. Jimmy prefers to enjoy scenery from her back. C.

She’s content to carry him while she’s physically able and helps him walk short distances on his own. (他有一辆轮椅，但安特鲁姆从来都不喜欢用它。她很乐意在自己身体还可以的时候抱着他，并帮助他自己走一小段路。)”可知，Antrum之所以不用轮椅，是因为她想表明她爱儿子的决心。故选D项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“She counts herself lucky that they have similar interests. They both enjoy the outdoors, the water and adventures. (她觉得自己很幸运，因为他们有相似的兴趣。他们都喜欢户外活动、水和冒险。)”可知，Antrum和儿子有相似的兴趣，那就是都喜欢户外活动。故选A项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“From Hawaii to Bali and the ski-slopes of Perisher, 26-year-old Jimmy Antrum has seen plenty of the world. But it has all been from the vantage point (有利位置) of his mother’s back.(从夏威夷到巴厘岛，再到佩里舍的滑雪场，26岁的吉米·安特鲁姆见识了世界上的很多地方。但这一切都是站在他母亲的背上。)”以及第四段中的“They both enjoy the outdoors, the water and adventures.(他们都喜欢户外活动、水和冒险)”可知，Antrum和儿子都喜欢冒险，并且Antrum还背着儿子从夏威夷到了巴厘岛，再到佩里舍的滑雪场，说明Antrum勇于冒险,是个意志坚强的人；根据文章第一段“Fulfilling a promise she made to herself to give her disabled son the best life she possibly could, Niki Antram has spent years travelling the globe with Jimmy clinging (紧贴) to her shoulders. (为了实现她对自己的承诺，给她残疾的儿子最好的生活，妮基·安特鲁姆花了几年时间带着吉米周游世界。)”，结合第三段中的“Ms. Antrum makes a meticulous (一丝不苟的) plan and calls ahead for every venue she wants to visit—whether it is a restaurant or hotel.(安特鲁姆做了一个细致的计划，她会提前预约她想去的每一个地点——无论是餐馆还是酒店。)”可知，为了实现承诺，Antrum花了几年的时间带着儿子周游世界，并且去每一个地方都做好细致的计划，这说明Antrum是一个很有责任心的人。故选D项。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段中的“From Hawaii to Bali and the ski-slopes of Perisher, 26-year-old Jimmy Antrum has seen plenty of the world.

Food high in sugar or fat tends to improve mood by stimulating the brain’s reward system. So it makes sense that many of us may turn to food for comfort in times of stress. There’s some fascinating research that examines food as a source of comfort. However, the most interesting thing about this research may be that foods are far less comforting than we tend to believe they are. Traci Mann, a professor of psychology, and colleagues conducted a series of study with college students. The researchers examined how much comfort foods actually improve mood. They provided students with one of the three foods that they had indicated were their top, personal comfort foods. After producing a negative mood by having them watch movie clips designed to increase their sadness, anger and anxiety, the researchers offered the students their comfort food. They had to assess (评估) how they felt before and after they were supposedly comforted by ice cream, pizza or whatever they had indicated they typically ate to feel better. All of the students completed the study on two separate occasions: once when they were able to eat their comfort food and once when they were able to eat another food they liked, but they wouldn’t call a comfort food. The researchers found that comfort food did improve students’ moods — but only by a little bit and not more than the other food they liked. In another study, comfort food was compared to no food at all, and students’ moods seemed to improve even when they didn’t eat anything—most likely just due to the passage of time. The take-home message from the studies? While the comfort food may make the person feel better for the time being, it does little to address emotional problems. Of course, everyone can indulge(纵情)in a comfort food from time to time, but overall, aim for these instances to be the exception rather than the rule. 8. Which aspect of comfort food do Tract Mann’s studies focus on? A. The means by which it affects mood. B. Its role in reducing negativity. C. Its impact on physical health. D. The extent to which it lifts mood. 9. How were the studies carried out? A. By analyzing questionnaires about comfort foods. B. By observing students’ different reactions to foods. C. By collecting data about people from all walks of life D By comparing students’ feelings on different occasions. 10. What does the author intend to do in the last paragraph? A. To explain a rule. B. To introduce a concept. C. To make a suggestion. D. To present a fact. 11. What is a suitable title for the text? A. The Science behind Comfort Food B. Comfort Food May not Work Wonders C. Feeling Negative? Try Comfort Food D. Comfort Food Tends to Be Unhealthy 【答案】8. D 9. D 10. C 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章探讨了食物是否真的有安慰的作用，通过实验研究发现，安慰食品对改善情绪的作用非常有限，甚至没有其它喜欢的食品更加有效，同时即使不吃食物，情绪也会因为时间流逝而有所改善。文章提醒人们应对情绪问题采取更有效的解决方式，不要单纯依赖安慰食品来缓解自己的情绪。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“ There’s some fascinating research that examines food as a source of comfort. However, the most interesting thing about this research may be that foods are far less comforting than we tend to believe they are.(有一些有趣的研究将食物作为安慰的来源。然而，这项研究最有趣的地方可能是，食物远没有我们想象的那么令人安慰。)”以及第二段中“Traci Mann, a professor of psychology, and colleagues conducted a series of study with college students. The researchers examined how much comfort foods actually improve mood.(心理学教授Traci Mann及其同事对大学生进行了一系列研究。研究人员调查了安慰性食物多大程度上能真正改善情绪)”可知，心理学教授Traci Mann及其同事调查了多少安慰性食物能真正改善情绪即该研究主要集中的是安慰性食物改善情绪的程度。故选D。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“They had to assess (评估) how they felt before and after they were supposedly comforted by ice cream, pizza or whatever they had indicated they typically ate to feel better. (他们必须评估他们在吃冰淇淋、披萨或任何他们认为能让他们感觉更好的东西之前和之后的感觉)”可知，研究者评估了学生们在吃冰淇淋、披萨或任何他们认为能让他们感觉更好的东西之前和之后的感觉即通过比较学生在不同场合的感受而开展的。故选D。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“The take-home message from the studies? While the comfort food may make the person feel better for the time being, it does little to address emotional problems. Of course, everyone can indulge(纵情)in a comfort food from time to time, but overall, aim for these instances to be the exception rather than the rule.(从这些研究中得出的结论是什么？虽然安慰食物可能会让人暂时感觉好一些，但它对解决情绪问题几乎没有作用。当然，每个人都可以偶尔放纵一下，但总的来说，这些都是例外，而不是规则)”可知，本段告知读者安慰食物可能会让人暂时感觉好一些，但它对解决情绪问题几乎没有作用，因此缓解情绪应该选择一些别的方法。故推断文章最后一段是作者想要给读者们提出建议。故选C。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“There’s some fascinating research that examines food as a source of comfort. However, the most interesting thing about this research may be that foods are far less comforting than we tend to believe they are.(有一些有趣的研究将食物作为安慰的来源。然而，这项研究最有趣的地方可能是，食物远没有我们想象的那么令人安慰。)”以及通读全文可知，文章探讨了食物是否真的有安慰的作用，通过实验研究发现，安慰食品对改善情绪的作用非常有限，甚至没有其它喜欢的食品更加有效，同时即使不吃食物，情绪也会因为时间流逝而有所改善。文章提醒人们应对情绪问题采取更有效的解决方式，不要单纯依赖舒适食品来缓解自己的情绪。由此可知，A选项“Comfort Food May not Work Wonders(安慰食物可能不会产生奇迹)”能够概括文章主要内容，符合标题。故选B。 D What strategy do you use to make tough life decisions like whether to end a relationship, quit your job, or go back to school? Maybe you weigh the advantages and disadvantages. Maybe you go with your sixth sense. Or maybe, if you’re like most people, you simply do nothing. After all, we have a tendency to prefer the status quo (现状), and focus more on the potential losses involved with change rather than the potential benefits. But here’s a simpler strategy: When you’re indecisive about a big life decision, choose the path of change. That’s the takeaway of research recently published by Steven Levitt, an economist at the University of Chicago. For the study, Levitt asked people who were facing tough decisions to flip (抛) a digital coin on the website FreakonomicsExperiments.com. The coin tosses were randomized, with one side representing change, the other status quo. The study asked more than 20,000 participants to make whichever decision the coin toss directed, and then report back on how things played out after two and six months. Of course, not everyone followed through. The two-month survey found that participants chose change less frequently than they had initially predicted they would. After six months, however, this tendency toward inaction disappeared. But most surprising were the results on well-being. At both the two and six-month marks, most people who chose change reported feeling happier, better off, and that they had made the correct decision. The study had some limitations. One is that its participants weren’t selected randomly. Another limitation is that participants whose decision didn’t play out well might have been less likely to report back on their status after two and six months. Still the study does suggest that people who are on the edge of a tough decision are probably better off going with change. Levitt isn’t suggesting you flip a coin to make all decisions. But coin-flipping does seem to have some benefits. Levitt notes that some people might prefer giving in to their fate to randomness in order to avoid regret. But you can also use randomness a bit more sensibly. When facing a tough decision, you could flip a coin and, upon seeing the outcome, notice whether you feel relief or fright. If you feel relieved, that’s probably the path you should choose. 12. What is most people’s priority when making hard choices? A. Valuing potential benefits. B. Calculating potential losses. C. Making a change to the status quo. D. Following inner voice of one’s mind. 13. What are the findings of the two surveys? A. More participants remained inactive after six months. B. Making changes brought most participants happiness. C. Participants’ action agreed with their initial prediction. D. All participants gave immediate feedback on their status. 14. What is a limitation of the study? A. The insufficiency of study statistics. B. The insensible outcome of the analysis. C. The incorrect method of flipping a coin. D. The randomness of picking study subjects. 15. What is the main idea of the passage? A. Coin flips are beneficial to making hard choices. B. A study offers a strategy for making hard decisions. C. When facing a hard decision, choose the status quo. D. A study justifies making hard choices with randomness. 【答案】12. B 13. B 14. A 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要讲述了当人们面对人生的重大选择的时候，有人权衡利弊，有人靠感觉或者什么都不做，作者告诫我们面对人生大事，要做出改变。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“After all, we have a tendency to prefer the status quo (现状), and focus more on the potential losses involved with change rather than the potential benefits.(毕竟，我们倾向于保持现状，更多地关注变化所涉及的潜在损失，而不是潜在的利益。)”可知，人们在面对重大选择的时候，总是算计潜在的损失。故选B项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“At both the two and six-month marks, most people who chose change reported feeling happier, better off, and that they had made the correct decision.(在两个月和六个月的时间里，大多数选择改变的人报告说，他们感觉更快乐、更好，他们做出了正确的决定。)”可知，分析发现做决定给参与者带来了幸福。故选B项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据尾段中的“The study had some limitations.

A few famous people may give you some helpful tips. ● Read books from past eras. ___16___ Otherwise, you’d be “completely dependent on the prejudices and fashions of your times,” just as Albert Einstein put it. “Somebody who reads only newspapers and books of contemporary authors looks to me like an extremely near-sighted person who dislikes eyeglasses,” he said. ● ___17___ Reading too wide a variety in too short a time would keep the teachings from leaving a lasting impression on you. Seneca the Younger, a first-century Roman philosopher, suggested that “you must linger (流连) among a limited number of master thinkers, and digest their works, if you would obtain ideas which shall win firm hold in your mind.” ● Shop at secondhand bookstores. Virginia Woolf believed the works in secondhand bookstores have an attraction which the usual volumes of the library lack. Browsing through these books gives you the chance to run into something that wouldn’t have risen to the attention of librarians and booksellers. ___18___ ● Check out authors’ reading lists. In his 1940 guide How to Read a Book, American philosopher Mortimer J. Adler talked about how to choose books. He attached importance to those that other authors consider worth reading. ___19___ Mortimer wrote that “one way to understand them is to read the books they read.” ● Make the final decision by yourself. ___20___ It’s you yourself who should choose what, how and when to read. Theodore Roosevelt recommended choosing books on subjects that interest you and letting your mood guide you to your next great read. A. Interest is the best teacher. B. Great authors are great readers. C. Leave some room for older works. D. Learn more about those great authors. E. Don’t jump too quickly from book to book. F. There’s no “best books” list that everyone should follow. G. Usually they are much more selective in organizing their collections. 【答案】16. C 17. E 18. G 19. B 20. F 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了阅读应该选什么样的书合适以及该去哪儿找到它们。 16题详解】 上文“Read books from past eras.(阅读过去时代的书籍。)”是本段的主旨句。下文“Otherwise, you’d be “completely dependent on the prejudices and fashions of your times,” just as Albert Einstein put it.(否则，正如阿尔伯特·爱因斯坦所说，你将“完全依赖于你所处时代的偏见和时尚”。)”可知，作者建议读者阅读过去的书籍。C项“Leave some room for older works.(为旧作品留出一些空间。)”也是建议大家阅读旧时代的书籍，符合本段主旨，故选C项。 【17题详解】 根据横线所在位置，可知此处应是小标题，概括下文。根据下文“Reading too wide a variety in too short a time would keep the teachings from leaving a lasting impression on you.(在太短的时间内阅读太多种类的内容会使文章无法给您留下持久的印象。)”可知，在太短的时间内读太多的书就会消化不了其中的知识，不能留下深刻印象。E项“Don’t jump too quickly from book to book.(读完一本书后不要太快地去读另一本)”，与下文表述一致，能概括本段内容。故选E项。 【18题详解】 根据本段小标题“Shop at secondhand bookstores.(在二手书店购物。)”以及空前“Virginia Woolf believed the works in secondhand bookstores have an attraction which the usual volumes of the library lack.

(通常，他们在组织藏品时更具选择性。)”承接上文，进一步说明了作者建议读者去二手书店买书的原因，符合语境，故选G项。 【19题详解】 根据本段小标题“Check out authors’ reading lists.(查看作者的阅读清单)”和空前“He attached importance to those that of her authors consider worth reading.(他重视其他作者认为值得读的那些作品。)”可推知，作者建议读者在选择书籍时可以借鉴书籍作者的阅读清单，阅读他们读过的书，说明作家读过的书好。B项“Great authors are great readers.(好的作家也是好的读者)”，承接上文，符合语境，故选B项。 【20题详解】 根据木段小标题“Make the final decision by yourself.(自己做最后的决定)”以及空后“It’s you yourself who should choose what, how and when to read.(阅读内容，阅读方式和阅读时间应由你自己选择)”可推知，想要读什么书，要读多长时间等细节都应该由自己决定。F项“There’s no “best books” list that everyone should follow.(没有人人都应该遵循的“最佳书籍”清单)”也是在表达“读者自由决定自己读什么书”的内容，符合语境，故选F项。 第三部分 语言知识运用（共三节，满分30分） 第一节 完形填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） In April, the lockdown in Morris Township was coming to an end.

One day, Eric noticed a young teenage boy standing in front of a drugstore. He approached him, and found out that the boy wanted to buy medicine for his sick mother, but had no money. The boy cried out, “if I don’t bring home medicine, my mom will die. But I won’t be able to handle it.” Upon hearing this, Erie didn’t hesitate to pay for the medicine. “I’ll pay for the medicine on his behalf,” he said, handing the pharmacist (药剂师) a couple of bills from his pocket. The boy looked at Erie with grateful eyes, and cried, “Thank you so much. You are heaven-sent.” “There will always be people willing to help you, son,” Eric told him before handing him two portions of food. “Here, take this to your mom and have a hot meal with her,” he said before letting the boy go. His daughter Riley saw the whole scene and said, “Dad, we have barely enough money. Why did you pay for the medicine?” “Riley, the good you put out into the world will eventually find its way back to you. Just keep doing good,” Eric told his daughter. When Riley turned thirty, she needed an operation urgently after being told there was something wrong with her heart. With difficulty breathing, Eric rushed Riley to the hospital in an ambulance. “You’ll be alright, Riley.” he cried. “Don’t worry, Daddy is here. We’ll get through this together,” he promised her. Eric did try his best to find the money for bis daughter’s operation. He asked all of his friends, but it was still not enough. Therefore, Eric decided to sell their house. It was enough to pay for her operation, but they would be left with nothing, “it’s okay,” he told himself. I will be able to earn money again, but if I lose my daughter, nothing will ever bring her back.” By the time Erie made it back to the hospital, Riley was in her hospital room, weak and pale. He sat beside her bed and held her hand. “You’ll be okay, my sweet daughter. We’ll soon have the money for the operation,” he promised her. 注意: 1. 续写词数应为: 150 左右; 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Para 1: Eric suddenly noticed an envelope on the bed. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Para2: He ran to the doctor’s office and hugged him. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Eric suddenly noticed an envelope on the bed. It was addressed to him. He opened it and was surprised to find a check inside and a note that read: “You’d saved a boy’s mother years before. Thank you so much for the three packs of medicine, and two portions of food.” Immediately, Eric remembered the boy he had helped a long time ago. He went to the nurse station and asked them who visited Riley. The nurse told him there was no one except the doctor. Eric came to realize the doctor was exactly that boy. He ran to the doctor’s office and hugged him. “Thank you, son,” Eric cried. The doctor said, “It's I who should say thanks. That day, you saved my mother’s life. Since then, I promised myself that I would study hard to become a doctor to help more people. Now I have achieved the dream.” “I am proud of you,” Eric said with happiness. The doctor smiled and promised to arrange the operation for Riley soon and take care of her during her hospitalization. Riley realized that what her dad said was true -- the good you put out into the world will find its way back to you. 【解析】 【导语】本篇以人物为线索展开。讲述了一位单亲父亲Erie独自抚养女儿Riley，一次偶然的机会帮助了一个为母亲买药的小男孩。数十年后，Riley病重，需要高额医疗费。就在父女二人一筹莫展之际，当时的小男孩已成长为一名医生，用他的行动回报了当年的善意举动，说明善行总会有好报。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“Erie突然注意到床上有一个信封。”可知，第一段可描写Erie打开信封见到里面的东西时的反应。 ②由第二段首句内容“他跑到医生的办公室，拥抱了他。”可知，第二段可描写Erie激动的心情及对小男孩的感激。 2.续写线索：偶遇男孩——帮助买药——女儿重病——费用高昂——回馈善意——表达感谢 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①打开信封：open the envelope/unwind the envelope ②发现：find/see/spot ③记起：remember/recall 情绪类 ①激动开心：happiness/excitement ②感到骄傲：be proud of/take pride in 【点睛】[高分句型1]It's I who should say thanks.（运用了it is...that...的强调句型） [高分句型2]Since then, I promised myself that I would study hard to become a doctor to help more people.（运用了that引导的宾语从句） 听力 CABBC CBBCB BCAAB ACACA 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
