Unit 1 Laugh out loud（提高练） --2024-2025学年高二英语40分钟限时训练 （外研版2019选择性必修第一册） 一、阅读理解 第一节 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 My daughter was being thrown out of the sixth grade. The teacher said, “She may not be up to what we’re trying to accomplish.” He was really saying she didn’t have the intelligence. I got mad because I knew she was smart, just as my father had known I was smart when I was failing in school. We had her tested. I decided to get myself tested as well, and found that the troubles she was having were exactly what I had had — dyslexia. By then I was a successful television writer, and had won an Emmy Award for “The Rockford Files.” If I had known earlier that something beyond my control could explain why I was a low achiever, I may not have worked so hard in my late 20s and early 30s. I was writing and writing. I was working for no other reason than to hear people praise me, because I did badly in all my courses. I once asked a friend who had always gotten an A, “How long did you study for this?” He said, “I didn’t. I just glanced at it.” So he must be smarter. I began to ask, “What will happen to me when I’m not good at anything?” Despite my doubts, I did become successful, and people now say to me, “So you’ve overcome dyslexia.” No. You don’t overcome it, you learn to compensate for it. Some easy things are very hard for me. Most people who go through college read twice as fast as I do. I avoid dialing a phone if I can, because I sometimes have to try three times to get the number right. Despite my weaknesses I view dyslexia as a gift, not a curse (诅咒). Many dyslexics are good at right-brain, abstract thought, and that’s what my kind of creative writing is. And I can write quickly, and can get up to 15 pages a day. Writing is my strength. The real fear I have for dyslexic children is not they have to struggle in school, but that they will quit on themselves before they get out of school. Parents have to create victories for them, whether it’s music, sports or art. You can make your dyslexic child able to say, “Yeah, reading is hard. But I have other things I can do.” 1．The writer decided to get himself tested as well because he________. A．wanted to know if they had the same problem B．didn’t believe his daughter had the problem C．had to take a regular medical examination D．accepted that his daughter was not smart 2．We can learn from the second paragraph that the writer________. A．struggled and got better grades B．didn’t work hard when he was young C．was praised for overcoming dyslexia D．was thankful not knowing of dyslexia earlier 3．According to the passage, a dyslexic person________. A．is less intelligent B．always fails in school C．reads more slowly than normal people D．performs worse in left-brain activities 4．What can we learn from the story? A．Clumsy birds have to start flying early. B．God shuts one door but opens another. C．Never judge a person by his appearance. D．No one can make a good coat with bad cloth. B I read somewhere that we spend a full third of our lives waiting. But where are we doing all of this waiting, and what does it mean to an impatient society like ours? To understand the issue, let’s take a look at three types of “waits”. The very purest form of waiting is the Watched-Pot Wait, It is without doubt the most annoying of all Take filling up the kitchen sink(洗碗池)as an example. There is absolutely nothing you can do while this is going on but keep both eyes fixed on the sink until it’s full. During these waits, the brain slips away from the body and wanders about until the water runs over the edge of the counter and onto your socks. This kind of wait makes the waiter helpless and mindless. A cousin to the Watched-Pot Wait is the Forced Wait. This one requires a bit of discipline. Properly preparing packaged noodle soup requires a Forced Wait. Directions are very specific. “Bring three cups of water to boil, add mix, simmer three minutes, remove from heat, let stand five minutes.” I have my doubts that anyone has actually followed the procedures strictly. After all, Forced Waiting requires patience Perhaps the most powerful type of waiting is the Lucky-Break Wait. This type of wait is unusual in that it is for the most part voluntary. Unlike the Forced Wait, which is also voluntary, waiting for your lucky break does not necessarily mean that it will happen. Turning one’s life into a waiting game requires faith and hope, and is strictly for the optimists among us. On the surface it seems as ridiculous as following the directions on soup mixes, but the Lucky-Break Wait well serves those who are willing to do it. As long as one doesn’t come to rely on it, wishing for a few good things to happen never hurts anybody. We certainly do spend a good deal of our time waiting. The next time you’re standing at the sink waiting for it to fill while cooking noodle soup that you’ll have to eat until a large bag of cash falls out of the sky, don’t be desperate. You’re probably just as busy as the next guy. 5．While doing a Watched-Pot Wait we tend to __________. A．keep ourselves bus B．get absent-minded C．grow anxious D．stay focused 6．What is the difference between the Forced Wait and the Watched-Pot Wait? A．The Forced Wait requires some self-control. B．The Forced Wait makes people passive. C．The Watched-Pot Wait needs directions. D．The Watched-Pot Wait engages body and brain. 7．What can we learn about the Lucky-Break Wait? A．It is less voluntary than the Forced Wait. B．It doesn’t always bring the desired result. C．It is more fruitful than the Forced Wait. D．It doesn’t give people faith and hope. 8．What does the author advise us to do the next time we are waiting! A．Take it seriously B．Don’t rely on others C．Do something else D．Don’t lose heart 第二节 七选五 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。 You may have heard of the “fight or flight” response—an evolutionary system that allows us to enter a survival state in the presence of physical or psychological threats. Your fight-or-flight mode is activated by the sympathetic nervous system. It’s meant to force you into action in order to temporarily protect or prepare yourself for something bad. 1 . Exposure to stressful situations may be perceived by your brain and body as intense and repetitive, locking you into a fight-or-flight state that may continue to exist for days, months or even years. We asked experts about signs that your mind and body have not returned to their normal, resting state. 2 When stress is long-lasting, the body’s response system becomes overwhelmed, causing a collapse that may leave you unfeeling to everything. This emotional situation can make you feel like you’re on autopilot or disconnected from yourself and others. You might not be able to respond to emotions, which can lead to forgetfulness, difficulty of focusing, tiredness, hopelessness and self-destructive behaviors. You’re always tired, but can’t rest 3 . It keeps the mind and body alert and in survival mode to protect themselves. Sleep disturbances and muscle tension can be caused by biological changes. Other sleep problems can include nightmares, early waking, restless sleep and difficulty of falling asleep. Long-lasting exposure to cortisol, the stress hormone in the body, can put us in a constant state of awareness to our surroundings. How to calm your fight-or-flight response Eliminating long-lasting stress can be difficult. 4 . Physical ways to ensure you’re taking care of yourself include exercising, eating regularly and getting enough sleep. 5 . Most of all, it’s important to recognize when you need help, which can mean getting support from available resources. A．You’re emotionally unfeeling B．But sometimes, that can go out of control C．A common symptom of nonstop stress is overalertness D．Making time to process your emotions is important in coping E．Some stress can be healthy, contributing to cognitive benefits F．The truth is that your fight-or-flight response can kick in anytime G．Positive social support can also help with stress and protect you against harm 二、 完形填空 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Letting me move into my university dormitory wasn’t an easy decision for my parents.

Watching Adam Sandler’s performing in this movie led me to watch almost every movie in 4 he has ever acted. As a freshman in high school, I am stressed, but Adam’s movies can easily make me grin from ear 5 ear. In his movies, he always uses some witty tones, which make the movie even more 6 (entertain). What is also 7 (impress) are the stunts (特技) in his movies. In 8 (conclude), Adam Sandler has inspired me to be in 9 good mood in bad situations.

D．No one can make a good coat with bad cloth. 【答案】1．A 2．D 3．C 4．B 【分析】本文是记叙文。作者从女儿患读写困难症，谈到自己也有读写困难，但是作者通过自己的努力成为了一位成功的电视作家，并获得了艾米奖。作者认为读写困难不是诅咒，而是礼物。上帝给你关上一扇门的同时必然会为你打开一扇窗。 1．细节理解题。根据第一段的We had her tested. I decided to get myself tested as well, and found that the troubles she was having were exactly what I had had — dyslexia.可知，作者和女儿一起做了检测，发现女儿的确有和作者曾经有的一样的问题——读写困难。因此推断，作者决定自己也做检查是因为他想要知道是否他和女儿有同样的问题。故选A。 2．推理判断题。根据第二段的If I had known earlier that something beyond my control could explain why I was a low achiever, I may not have worked so hard in my late 20s and early 30s.(如果我早些时候知道一些超出我控制范围的事情可以解释为什么我是一个学渣，我可能在20多岁和30多岁的时候没有这么努力)可知，作者感激没有早知道有读写困难症。故选D。 3．细节理解题。根据第四段的Most people who go through college read twice as fast as I do.(大多数读大学的人读得比我快两倍)可知，一个读写困难的人读得比正常人慢。故选C。 4．推理判断题。根据最后一段的Despite my weaknesses I view dyslexia as a gift, not a curse (诅咒). Many dyslexics are good at right-brain, abstract thought, and that’s what my kind of creative writing is. And I can write quickly, and can get up to 15 pages a day. Writing is my strength. (尽管我有弱点，但我认为诵读困难是一种礼物，而不是一种诅咒。 许多诵读困难者擅长右脑、抽象思维，这就是我的创造性写作。我能写得很快，每天最多能写15页。写作是我的力量)可推断，上帝给你关上一扇门的同时必然会为你打开一扇窗。故选B。 B I read somewhere that we spend a full third of our lives waiting.

A．Take it seriously B．Don’t rely on others C．Do something else D．Don’t lose heart 【答案】5．B 6．A 7．B 8．D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要描述了等待分为 三种，我们不应该在等待时失去信心。 5．细节理解题。根据第二段“There is absolutely nothing you can do while this is going on but keep both eyes fixed on the sink until it’s full. During these waits, the brain slips away from the body and wanders about until the water runs over the edge of the counter and onto your socks. ”（在这个过程中，你什么也做不了，只能盯着水槽，直到它满了。在等待的过程中，大脑离开了身体，四处游荡，直到水溢出柜台的边缘，流到你的袜子上。）可知，当我们盯着水池看的时候，我们往往心不在焉。故选B。 6．细节理解题。根据第三段“A cousin to the Watched-Pot Wait is the Forced Wait. This one requires a bit of discipline.”（与“守锅等待”类似的是“强制等待”。“强迫等待”需要一点自制力。）可知，强迫等待与守锅等待的区别是强迫等待需要一些自制力。故选A。 7．细节理解题。根据文章“Unlike the Forced Wait, which is also voluntary, waiting for your lucky break does not necessarily mean that it will happen.”（不像强迫等待，它是自愿的，等待你的幸运突破并不一定意味着它会发生。） 可知，幸运的等待并不总是带来预期的结果。故选B。 8．细节理解题。根据最后一段“The next time you’re standing at the sink waiting for it to fill while cooking noodle soup that you’ll have to eat until a large bag of cash falls out of the sky, don’t be desperate.”（我们确实花费了相当长时间等待。下次当你站在水槽旁煮面汤，期待着它被注满时，即使没有一大袋现金从天而降，也不要感到绝望。）可知，作者建议我们下次等待时不要失去信心。故选D。 第二节 七选五 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。 You may have heard of the “fight or flight” response—an evolutionary system that allows us to enter a survival state in the presence of physical or psychological threats.

It’s meant to force you into action in order to temporarily protect or prepare yourself for something bad.(你的战斗或逃跑模式是由交感神经系统激活的。它的意思是强迫你采取行动，以便暂时保护自己或为不好的事情做好准备。)”和下文“Exposure to stressful situations may be perceived by your brain and body as intense and repetitive, locking you into a fight-or-flight state that may continue to exist for days, months or even years.(你的大脑和身体可能会认为暴露在压力环境中是紧张和重复的，将你锁定在一种“战斗或逃跑”的状态中，这种状态可能会持续几天、几个月甚至几年。)”可知，上文提到“战斗或逃跑”这一机制的重要意义，下文提到长期处于有压力的环境下会让自己一直陷于这种机制中。由此可知，空处有转折意味。B项：But sometimes, that can go out of control.(但有时候，这可能会失去控制。)符合语境。故选B。 2．空处为段落小标题。根据下文“When stress is long-lasting, the body’s response system becomes overwhelmed, causing a collapse that may leave you unfeeling to everything.(当压力持续很长时间，身体的反应系统就会变得不堪重负，导致崩溃，让你对一切都失去感觉。)”可知，人们若长久处于压力之中，身体的反应机制会承受不了，最终使得自己对一切都毫无感觉。下文中的“leave you unfeeling to everything”与A项中的“emotionally unfeeling”对应。A项：You’re emotionally unfeeling.(你在情感上上没有感觉。)符合语境。故选A。 3．根据下文“It keeps the mind and body alert and in survival mode to protect themselves.(它使身心保持警觉，并处于生存模式，以保护自己。)”可知，C项中的“overalertness”和下文中的“alert”对应，表明无休止的压力的另一个征兆是过度警觉。C项：A common symptom of nonstop stress is overalertness.(持续压力的一个常见症状是过度警觉。)符合语境。故选C。 4．根据下文“Physical ways to ensure you’re taking care of yourself include exercising, eating regularly and getting enough sleep.(确保你照顾好自己的身体方式包括锻炼、规律饮食和充足睡眠。)”可知，空后提到了一些关于“战斗或逃跑”反应的应对方法。D项：Making time to process your emotions is important in coping.(花时间处理你的情绪在应对中很重要。)符合语境。故选D。 5．根据上文“Physical ways to ensure you’re taking care of yourself include exercising, eating regularly and getting enough sleep.(确保你照顾好自己的身体方式包括锻炼、规律饮食和充足睡眠。)”和下文“Most of all, it’s important to recognize when you need help, which can mean getting support from available resources.(最重要的是，认识到什么时候需要帮助是很重要的，这意味着要从可用的资源中获得支持。)”可知，空前提到了一些自己可以尝试的方法，空后提到也可以寻求帮助。G项：Positive social support can also help with stress and protect you against harm.(积极的社会支持也可以帮助缓解压力，保护你免受伤害。)符合语境，表明积极的社会援助也可以起作用。故选G。 二、 完形填空 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Letting me move into my university dormitory wasn’t an easy decision for my parents.
