四、(山东省青岛中学2023~2024学年下学期高二年级期末)阅读理解
“I am so sorry,” I tearfully said to my principal investigator (PI), explaining I would not be able to return to work as originally planned. Before I became a parent, I had assumed a baby would fit right into my academic plans. But now, as the end of my leave approached, I realized I couldn’t simply carry on as I always had. I was worried this decision might signal the end of my academic career — but I felt I had no other choice.
Thankfully, my PI had more foresight. He told me I didn’t need to resign and that he could offer me a contract that would allow me to contribute to our project from afar. It proved to be an absolute career lifeline tailored to me.
Then five years after stepping back from academia, I felt ready to re-enter more fully. Because I had been able to keep my hand in during my time away, the prospect was much less daunting than it would have been otherwise. I ended up landing a lecturer position that allowed me to slowly ease back in, focusing on teaching and scholarship with research taking a back seat. And when, 4 years on, a senior lectureship position came up in the very group I had left a decade earlier, the timing was right. With both of my children in “big school”, I was ready to really put my foot down on the career accelerator. I got the job.
Now, 6 months into my new role, I am happy to be right where it all began, with involvement in so many interesting projects. But what truly made the difference for me was the offer of what I needed during that time away. I hope more institutions and PIs can come up with creative provisions (条款) for those in their workforce who don’t want to give up their careers but want-or-need to take extended periods of leave. And to those who are taking such breaks, or considering it, know that returning is possible. Above all, on both sides: Please do not discount extended leavers. We have a lot to offer — if we are given the chance.
24. What can we learn about the author from the first paragraph?
A. Her path to PI began when she became a parent.
B. She struck a balance between work and family.
C. She had intended to stick to her academic plans.
D. She chose to prioritize her career over her family.
25. Which is closest in meaning to the underlined word “daunting” in paragraph 3?
A. Fearsome. B. Realistic. C. Regretful. D. Promising.
26. What contributed most to her success according to the author?
A. Academic researches. B. Supportive work environment.
C. Interest in the projects. D. Involvement in engaging projects.
27. What’s the author’s purpose of writing the passage?
A. To analyse. B. To entertain. C. To report. D. To promote.

Paragraph 1
The French author Jean Anthelme Brillat-Savarin once wrote, “Tell me what you eat, and I will tell you what you are.” Put more simply, this means “You are what you eat.” Most people today relate this saying to healthy eating. However, Brillat-Savarin was referring to our personality, character and culture.
Q1.What’s the purpose of the author using the quote in Para1?
Q2. “You are what you eat.” What does the quote mean?
To introduce the topic.
It means that the kind of food we eat tells something about our personality, character, and culture.
Tell me what you eat, and I will tell you what you are.
— Jean Anthelme Brillat-Savarin

The saying means that the kind of food we eat tells something about our personality, character, and culture.
Certainly, in many ways this seems to be true. Chinese cuisine is a case in point. Prior to coming to China, my only experience with Chinese cooking was in America, with Chinese food that had been changed to suit American tastes. For example, America’s most popular Chinese dish is General Tso’s chicken, which consists of fried chicken covered in a sweet sauce, flavoured with hot red peppers. This is probably not an authentic Chinese recipe, however, it cannot tell us much about the Chinese. On the other hand, it does tell us a lot about Americans. It tells us, for example, that Americans love bold, simple flavours. And, since the dish was also invented recently, it tells us that Americans are not afraid to try new foods.
Q1. What is the most popular Chinese food in America?
Q2. Is it an authentic(真正的) Chinese food? Why?
Q3. What can the dish tell us about Americans?
Paragraph 2
No, it had been changed to suit American tastes.
It tells us that Americans love bold(浓烈的,英勇的), simple flavours and are not afraid to try new foods.
Main idea: the experience with Chinese food in America.

Later I had a chance to experience authentic Chinese food by coming to China. When my family and I had just arrived in China, we went looking for a good place to eat in Beijing. A Sichuan restaurant had been recommended to us by a friend, and finally, we found it. Tired, hungry, and not knowing a word of Chinese, we had no idea how to order, so the chef just began filling our table with the best food we had ever eaten. With this, we had the pleasure of experiencing an entirely new taste: Sichuan peppercorns. The food was wonderful and different, but what was even more important was the friendship offered us.

We soon moved to Shandong Province in the eastern part of North China. My favourite dish there was boiled dumplings served with vinegar. I observed that family is important to the people there. It has become a favourite traditional dish of the people in North China, where making dumplings has always been a family affair with everyone---from the youngest to the oldest---joining in to help. Later, I learnt that the most famous food in Shandong is pancake rolls stuffed with sliced Chinese green onions.

Then we moved to northern Xinjiang. Some of our friends were Kazak and Inner Mongolian. These groups traditionally wandered the open range on horses. As a result, their traditional foods are what you can cook over an open fire---usually boiled or roasted meat, such as lamb kebab.

Our travels then took us to South China, and then on to central China. In each place we went, we experienced wonderful local dishes, from Guangdong’s elegant dim sum---small servings of food in bamboo steamers---to the exceptional stewed noodles in Henan. Everywhere, the food was as varied as the people. However, one thing is always true: Through food, Chinese people everywhere show friendship and kindness.

Read para 2-6 again and complete the table below
At a minimum, the kinds of food local people consume tell us what they grow in their region, what kinds of lives they lead, and what they like and do not like. Could we also say, for example, that those who like bold flavours are bold themselves? Or, that those who like spicy food tend to have a hot temper? Maybe. Maybe not. What we can say, however, is that culture and cuisine go hand in hand, and if you do not experience one, you can never really know the other.
Q1. What can the food local people consume tell us?
Q2. To sum up the main idea of paragraph 7.
It can tell us their region, their life, their preference.

Sometimes two ideas are related to each other by cause and effect. That is, one thing causes something else to happen. Cause-and-effect relationships can be direct.

Do you think “culture and cuisine go hand in hand”? Give your reasons.
Yes, because so much of a culture is based upon food and how it is eaten and served.
No, with the impact of globalization, all kinds of food are available everywhere, so food no longer reflects cultures. In addition, in this fast-changing world, everything is changing, including cuisines.
Group-working
Imagine that it is true that people's personalities are closely linked to the foods they eat. What does eating the following foods tell you about a person?
spicy food vegetarian food junk food seafood sweets chocolate rice noodles onion garlic bacon ham sausage cabbage mushroom bean curd
Possibly, people who like spicy food love excitement and new experiences. And people who like junk food like to enjoy life without worrying about the future.

“I am so sorry,” I tearfully said to my principal investigator (PI), explaining I would not be able to return to work as originally planned. Before I became a parent, I had assumed a baby would fit right into my academic plans. But now, as the end of my leave approached, I realized I couldn’t simply carry on as I always had. I was worried this decision might signal the end of my academic career — but I felt I had no other choice.
Thankfully, my PI had more foresight. He told me I didn’t need to resign and that he could offer me a contract that would allow me to contribute to our project from afar. It proved to be an absolute career lifeline tailored to me.
Then five years after stepping back from academia, I felt ready to re-enter more fully. Because I had been able to keep my hand in during my time away, the prospect was much less daunting than it would have been otherwise. I ended up landing a lecturer position that allowed me to slowly ease back in, focusing on teaching and scholarship with research taking a back seat. And when, 4 years on, a senior lectureship position came up in the very group I had left a decade earlier, the timing was right. With both of my children in “big school”, I was ready to really put my foot down on the career accelerator. I got the job.
Now, 6 months into my new role, I am happy to be right where it all began, with involvement in so many interesting projects. But what truly made the difference for me was the offer of what I needed during that time away. I hope more institutions and PIs can come up with creative provisions (条款) for those in their workforce who don’t want to give up their careers but want-or-need to take extended periods of leave. And to those who are taking such breaks, or considering it, know that returning is possible. Above all, on both sides: Please do not discount extended leavers. We have a lot to offer — if we are given the chance.

A. Her path to PI began when she became a parent.

25. Which is closest in meaning to the underlined word “daunting” in paragraph 3?

【答案】24. C 25. A 26. B 27. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者讲述了自己成为父母后因为无法回到原来的工作岗位而感到困惑和担忧。然而,幸运的是,他们的研究主任为他提供了一份可以远程参与项目的合同,这成为了他职业生涯的转折点。经过几年的休假,作者感到自己已经准备好重新全职工作,最终找到了一份讲师职位。凭借着之前在离开期间的经验,回归工作并没有那么困难。
【24题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“Before I became a parent, I had assumed a baby would fit right into my academic plans. But now, as the end of my leave approached, I realized I couldn’t simply carry on as I always had. I was worried this decision might signal the end of my academic career—but I felt I had no other choice.(在我为人父母之前,我曾以为有个孩子正好符合我的学业计划。但现在,随着我的假期即将结束,我意识到我不能像往常一样简单地继续下去。我担心这个决定可能标志着我学术生涯的结束,但我觉得我别无选择。)”可知,作者之前认为孩子会完全适应她的学术计划,但现在她意识到不能像以前一样继续工作,因此她感到困惑和担忧即作者本来打算坚持自己的学业计划。故选C。
【25题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词前面的内容“Then five years after stepping back from academia, I felt ready to re-enter more fully. Because I had been able to keep my hand in during my time away(在退出学术界五年后,我觉得自己已经准备好更全面地重返学术界。因为在我离开的这段时间里,我一直在工作)”可推知,此处指虽然作者退出了学术界,但是一直没有让自己对学术界生疏,一直在进行工作,让自己对学术界保持着熟悉的状态,因此前景远没有以前那么让作者害怕。故划线词与A选项“Fearsome.(害怕的)”为同义词。故选A。
【26题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“But what truly made the difference for me was the offer of what I needed during that time away. I hope more institutions and PIs can come up with creative provisions(条款) for those in their workforce who don’t want to give up their careers but want-or need-to take extended periods of leave.(但真正对我产生影响的是在这段时间里我所需要的东西。我希望更多的机构和负责人能够为那些不想放弃自己的事业,但希望或需要延长休假时间的员工提供创造性的规定。)”可知,现在,6个月过去了,作者很高兴回到了一切的起点,在众多有趣的项目中参与其中,但最让其开心的是能够在那段时间离开时得到所需的帮助。因此作者认为最为重要的是支持性的工作环境。故选B。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“But what truly made the difference for me was the offer of what I needed during that time away. I hope more institutions and PIs can come up with creative provisions for those in their workforce who don’t want to give up their careers but want-or need-to take extended periods of leave. And to those who are taking such breaks, or considering it, know that returning is possible. Above all, on both sides: Please do not discount extended leavers. We have a lot to offer-if we are given the chance.(但真正对我产生影响的是在这段时间里我所需要的东西。我希望更多的机构和负责人能够为那些不想放弃自己的事业,但希望或需要延长休假时间的员工提供创造性的规定。对于那些正在休假或考虑休假的人,要知道,回来是可能的。最重要的是,双方:请不要轻视长期离职者。如果给我们机会,我们有很多东西可以提供。)”可知,从文章最后一段可以看出,作者希望通过自己的经历告诉人们,回归工作是可能的,并呼吁更多的机构和领导提供有创意的设施,不要轻易忽视那些休长期假期的人的能力和价值。因此,作者写这篇文章的目的是促进人们对于这个问题的关注和重视。故选D。

考查动词及语态。句意:研究人员发现,呆在户外,看树,听鸟叫,看天空,感受大自然,这些都与较高的精神健康水平有关。The researchers found that后面是一个宾语从句,在宾语从句中,主语是being outdoors, seeing trees, hearing birdsong, seeing the sky, and feeling in contact with nature,所以接下来所给动词为谓语动词,此句时态是一般过去时,且用被动语态,故填were associated。
【10题详解】
考查过去分词做定语。句意:“城市心智”项目团队表示,他们希望“研究结果将为未来旨在改善设计和健康的城市规划和社会政策提供信息。”根据句子结构来看,intend充当policy的后置定语,相当于which is intended to...,表示旨在,故填intended。
