专题03 阅读理解 (阅读单选15篇+阅读七选五5篇) [模考好题20篇](选择必修二) 阅读单选 Passage 1 （2024-2025学年高二上·广西百色·阶段练习） Mr. Wilson, professor of news media, has recently received many questions from his students and answered them online. Here are some of them: • What is mass media? Mass media refers to the sources of information and news that reach a large audience. Besides traditional media, technology has changed and there are many new media introduced to convey information to the masses such as: books and magazines, televisions, Internet videos, films and documentaries. • What is the importance of mass media? Different types of mass media provide us with various types of political, religious, economic and social related news and information. Each media has its significance in some or the other way. For example, a newspaper provides information in rural areas and urban areas as well as a TV which also provides information, news and entertainment shows through a digital medium. • What is traditional media? Traditional media is considered as the oldest form of mass media, which transfers culture and tradition from generation to generation. People over some time developed different ways of communicating through local languages and written mediums. There are various forms of traditional media such as folk songs, fairs and festivals. • Which sector is considered as the root of mass media? The first modern mass media institution began with the development of the printing press. • Are there any problems associated with mass media? As with everything in life, mass media also comes with its own shortcomings. But there are enough experts to make up for that. 1．What has contributed to the popularity of modern media? A．Communication. B．Economic change. C．Traditional culture. D．New technology. 2．Which is described as a traditional mass medium? A．A dialogue between father and son. B．A radio programme broadcasted at night. C．A folk song popular with youngsters. D．A piece of big news via Weibo. 3．What is true of media? A．It offers us all kinds of news. B．The root of mass media is Internet. C．The invention of paper is considered as the root of mass media. D．There are no shortcomings in mass media. Passage 2 （2024-2025学年高二上·湖南·阶段练习）When the first modern Olympics kicked off in Athens in 1896, it wasn’t clear whether they’d last. However, it continued in 1900 and 1904, but not as a main attraction. Some of the Olympic events might seem a bit unusual to today’s sports fans. Chariot (战车) Racing Starting around 684 B．C．, drivers raced each other in horse-drawn chariots at the Olympics, sometimes crashing into one another. Only men could join in Olympic events as athletes, but wealthy women could show their support for chariots as sponsors. Because it was a chariot’s funder who received the victory title, not the racer himself, this was the only way women could “win” at the Olympics. Hot Air Balloon Racing The 1896 Olympics lasted less than two weeks; but the 1900 Olympics, which were tied to the months-long world’s fair in Paris, ran from May to October. With the expanded time, the 1900 Olympics featured many more athletes and events than the 1896 Olympics, including various hot air balloon competitions. Hot air balloon drivers competed in terms of distance traveled, altitude reached and best photograph taken from a balloon. However, hot air balloon racing made its appearance for the first time and also the last time in 1900. Live Pigeon (鸽子) Shooting Another event that appeared first at the 1900 Olympics was live pigeon shooting. In this competition, organizers set free pigeons into the air in front of a competitor, who then shot as many as possible. The winner was a Belgian man named Leon de Lun, who shot 21 pigeons. Altogether, the competitors killed around 300 pigeons. Luckily, live pigeon shooting only appeared at the Olympics once. Painting Starting with the 1912 Olympics in Stockholm and continuing until the 1948 games in London, the Olympics held art competitions in painting as well as sculpture, music, architecture and literature. Some people competed in both the sports and art competitions, and two people even won medals in both fields. The art competitions were called off because so many competitors were professional artists, and the Olympics were supposed to make the amateurs(people who didn’t get paid for their athletic or artistic talent) shine. 4．How could a woman be involved in Chariot Racing? A．By training a chariot driver. B．By funding a chariot. C．By competing in the race herself. D．By cheering for her favorite chariot driver. 5．What do Hot Air Balloon Racing and Live Pigeon Shooting have in common? A．They were accepted as Olympic events only once in history. B．They required excellent skills in photography. C．They involved the use of animals as a necessary part. D．They were warmly welcomed by the audience. 6．Why were the art competitions removed from the Olympic Games? A．The costs of organizing them were too high. B．The quality of the artistic works was far from satisfactory. C．The competitors didn’t meet the organizer’s expectations. D．The Olympic Games focused more on promoting sports than arts. Passage 3 （2024-2025学年高二上·四川南充·阶段练习） Today’s grandparents are joining their grandchildren on social media (社交媒体). People who are over 55 are joining Facebook in increasing numbers, which means that they will soon be the site’s second biggest user group—with 3. 5 million users aged 55－64 and 2. 9 million aged over 65. Surprisingly, 44% of grandparents say they have “excellent” skills in using social media. Sheila, 67, of Swansea, Mass. would put herself in this group. “I joined Facebook to see what my grandchildren are doing, as my daughter posts videos and photos of them. I also show off my garden when it’s in bloom (开花) or how happy my husband and I are when we go for a picnic to my family members. Without social media, I don’t think we would have the same relationship,” says Sheila. Teenagers are spending so much time on their phones at home that they ignore their friends in real life. However, the elderly may not do the same. For example, Sheila has got in touch with old friends from school whom she hasn’t heard from in the past forty years. “We use Facebook to discuss when and where to meet,” she says. “It’s changed my life completely.” Teenagers might have their parents to thank for their smartphone and social media addiction as their parents were the early users of the smartphone. Peter, 38 and father of two teenagers, reports that he used to be on his phone or personal computer endlessly. He says, “How could I tell my kids to get off their phones if I was always in front of a screen myself?” So, in the evenings and at weekends, he takes his SIM card out of his smartphone and puts it into an old－style mobile phone that can only make calls and send text messages. 7．What does the first paragraph show? A．More and more old people are using social media. B．Grandparents become famous on social media. C．Kids teach their grandparents to surf online. D．Facebook manages to increase its users. 8．What can we learn about Sheila? A．She lives far away from her grandchildren. B．She persuaded her friends to use social media. C．She gets closer to her family because of social media. D．She enjoys sharing her grandchildren’s life online. 9．What does the underlined word “ignore” in Paragraph 3 mean? A．Look after. B．Learn from. C．Make room for. D．Pay no attention to. 10．Why does Peter use his old－style mobile phone in the evenings and at weekends? A．To make calls and send text messages. B．To set a good example to his children. C．To stop working when at home. D．To remember the old days. Passage 4 （2024-2025学年高二上·江苏泰州·阶段练习） Previous studies of children have found links between use of electronic media and physical health risks. Electronic media use is also associated with social connection. However, comparatively less is known about links with academic performance. To help clarify these links, Mundy and colleagues studied 1, 239 8-to 9-year olds in Melbourne, Australia. They used a national achievement test data to measure the children’s academic performance at baseline and again after two years. They also asked the children’s parents to report on their kids’ use of electronic media. The researchers found that watching two or more hours of television per day at the age of8 or9was associated with lower reading performance compared to peers two years later; the difference was equal to losing four months of learning. Using a computer for more than one hour per day was linked to a similar degree of lost numeracy(计算能力). The analysis showed no links between use of videogames and academic performance. By accounting for baseline academic performance and potentially influencing factors such as mental health difficulties and body mass index (BMI)and controlling for prior media use, the researchers were able to identify television and computer use was associated with poorer academic performance. These findings could help parents and teachers better plans and clinical recommendations for electronic media use in late childhood. Future research could build on these results by examining continued associations in secondary school. The authors add: “The debate about the effects of modern media on children’s learning has never been more important given the effects of today’s Covid-19 on children. This is the first large study of electronic media use and learning in primary school children, and results showed heavier users of television and computers had significant declines in reading two years later compared with light users.” 11．What is Mundy’s study mainly about? A．Electronic media B．Acquisition approaches C．Kids’ health D．Academic performance 12．Which of the following statements may the author agree with? A．Previous studies are inaccurate and unreliable. B．Kids’ capacity to read declines when they apply e-books. C．Kids playing videogames can perform as well as before academically. D．Watching TV will have a negative impact on kids merely within two years. 13．What makes the effects of modern media on children’s learning a hot issue? A．Challenges from public health B．Clinical recommendation on leisure C．Parents’ concern about future D．Tight schedules at schools 14．How did the researchers make the new discovery? A．By inferring from previous studies B．By referring to the national achievement test data C．By analyzing children’s mental health difficulties D．By comparing academic performances before and after Passage 5 （2024-2025学年高二上·辽宁·阶段练习） Long before Friends made its official debut (首次亮相) in China, the show was a word-of-mouth phenomenon in the country. After Matthew Perry’s death at 54, a Wednesday evening memorial at a cafe in Shenzhen was packed with people and floral (鲜花的) arrangements as the TV mounted in the corner played an episode of Friends. Fans in China are mourning the loss of the star, who felt less like a distant celebrity and more like an old friend. “There were more people who showed up than we expected,” said cafe manager Nie Yanxia. “People shared their own memories about the character Chandler and Friends and many teared up.” “I remember the first time I saw Friends,” said 24-year-old Zhuo Min, who was from Nanjing. “I was shocked to find that people could be so friendly and funny. I started to cherish my friends and family more,” Zhuo said. “Life is short, and we should treasure every moment.” The atmosphere was filled with nostalgia and emotion as fans recalled the impact the show had on their lives. The strong emotional connect ion people felt with the show’s characters led to the larger-than-expected turnout at the cafe. Perry’s photo poster, which read “We love you, friend” at the bottom, was a painful reminder of his influence. The popularity of Friends in China, despite its late arrival on official platforms, is a witness to its timeless appeal. Chinese fans, who had long been introduced to the show through unofficial channels, quickly adopted it as a cultural touchstone, learning English and gaining insights into American life. The show’s vision of urban life resonated (共鸣) deeply with Chinese youth finding their own identity and independence in a rapidly changing society. The passing of Perry has stimulated a wave of emotional reflections. The Central Perry-themed cafes have become gathering places, where people can immerse themselves in the show’s world and share their memories with fellow fans. The impact of Friends and its cast, including Perry, continues to live on in the hearts of its loyal followers. 15．What did Zhuo Min realize after watching Friends? A．People in TV shows are not real. B．More friends should be made. C．Friends should be treasured more. D．Life is too short to have fun. 16．Why was the attendance at the cafe unexpectedly high? A．The popularity of Friends. B．The promotion activities at the cafe. C．The emotional atmosphere of the cafe. D．The people’s emotional bond with Friends. 17．Which of the following best describes the charm of Friends? A．Limited. B．Ever-lasting. C．Predictable. D．Short-lived. 18．What section of website is the text taken from? A．Entertainment. B．Movie review. C．Politics. D．Traditional culture. Passage 6 （2024-2025高二上·浙江杭州·阶段练习） If you’ve scrolled through your Facebook feed recently, you may have noticed something surprising: lots and lots of short videos. What makes this “Reels” feature strange is that it is hugely addictive, which I know quite well from my own personal experience. Last Friday, I took a break and hit on one short clip of someone making dinner and, well, the next time I looked up it was 20 minutes later and the blank document on my computer monitor was confirming to me that my work was still not done. However, as silly as it seems, Reels-is actually super important, and is at the centre of a major battle between the world’s largest tech firms. The format (格式) was first pioneered by TikTok-the Chinese-owned video app that has taken the world by storm since it launched in 2016. Today, TikTok has around 23 million UK users every month-including basically every person you know under the age of 25. And that fact has made Facebook and its parent company, Meta, very nervous indeed. As TikTok has continued to boom, Facebook has actually fallen in popularity among “Gen Z”. The reason Tik Tok has proven such a powerful challenger to Facebook’s social media dominance is almost entirely down to these sorts of short-form videos. The format is almost perfectly optimised to be as addictive as possible: Tik Tok’s app shows you a short-form video, and if you don’t like it, you can simply swipe it away and another one will start playing instantly. And because it is portrait, not landscape, videos look “right” when viewed on your phone. What’s also smart is that TikTok’s algorithm (算法) picks videos for you based on what you actually watch, and not what you say you want. Facebook isn’t the only app trying to do what TikTok does so well. Instagram, which is owned by Facebook’s parent company Meta, has integrated Reels even more aggressively into its app. And even Google is nervous, launching its own TikTok-style video section of YouTube(which it owns)a couple of years ago. As things stand, though TikTok currently maintains a healthy lead in the category, both YouTube and Facebook have deep pockets-so expect to see even more Reels and Shorts popping up in your feed as this intense battle continues to rage. You won’t be able to take your eyes off them. 19．Why did the author mention his own experience in paragraph 2? A．To illustrate the feature of short videos. B．To stress the importance of short videos. C．To prove his preference to short videos. D．To introduce the functions of short videos. 20．What do we know about TikTok according to the passage? A．It has shown the trend of the fall in popularity among “Gen Z”. B．It is perceived as a potential threat to Facebook’s social media dominance. C．Its number of registered UK users has reached 23 million since it launched in 2016. D．It underestimates the essential role of short videos in competition with large tech firms. 21．What makes the short videos on TikTok App so popular? A．The beautiful visual effects. B．The high video quality. C．The random recommendation. D．The quick switch between videos. 22．What is the message conveyed in the last paragraph? A．The short videos have a profound impact on our daily life. B．TikTok seems to be losing its advantage over short videos in the short run. C．YouTube and Facebook may encounter financial difficulties in developing Shorts. D．A growing number of tech firms have engaged in fierce competition for the short video market. Passage 7 （2024-2025学年高二上·河南·阶段练习） The Summer Olympics in Paris is always impressive, but 2024 promised something extraordinary even before the games began — the seats you are sitting on! Made from locally recycled plastic, these seats are sustainability (可持续性) champions in their own right. The Paris 2024 Summer Olympics made history in terms of sustainability, as 11,000 stadium seats made entirely of recycled plastic are used during the water sports. The plastic used for the seats was collected from recycling bins in the Seine-Saint-Denis neighborhood, and 80% of the 100 metric tons needed for the seats came from this area. The collected plastic was cut and torn into small pieces, processed and turned into new material by a local recycling firm called Le Pavé. After the base materials are produced into plastic seats with different colors, the seats have gone through numerous tests, including mechanical resistance, fire resistance, as well as UV resistance. The recycled plastic chairs proved to be strong and durable, with producers reporting no problems in the production process. The use of recycled plastic seats is part of Paris and France’s commitment to sustainability, with the goal of reducing downstream emissions (排放) by 50% compared to the 2012 and 2016 games. Additionally, the city is working to fight against environment worsening by making the Seine River swimmable for the first time in decades, in an effort to host the triathlon (铁人三项) there. The recycled plastic seats not only promote sustainability but also raise awareness about waste recycling, with children being encouraged to throw their plastic bottles into appropriate bins. The Paris Olympics’ use of recycled plastic seats demonstrates the potential of a circular economy, where waste is repurposed and reused, ultimately reducing the amount of plastic waste in landfills and oceans. 23．What is special about the seats for the 2024 Paris Olympics? A．They won the championship in a competition. B．They are made with a mix of plastic types. C．They are made from recyclable plastic. D．They are produced from local raw materials. 24．Where was the plastic for the seats mostly collected from? A．Recycling firms. B．Local recycling bins. C．All over France. D．International suppliers. 25．What does the numerous tests mainly show in paragraph 3? A．The advantages of the seats. B．The production process of the seats. C．The difficulty of producing the seats. D．The significance of the plastic seats. 26．What is one of the goals of using recycled plastic seats at the Paris Olympics? A．To create continued economic growth. B．To reduce energy consumption. C．To attract more attention to the games. D．To contribute to environmental efforts. Passage 8 Imagine Dad and I are watching the Olympic Games in our media room someday in the future. The screen drops down to cover one wall. We give our robot Sylvia our orders for popcorn and juice for dinner. She is only a machine but she looks like a human and helps with the housework. We are having popcorn for dinner tonight because something is wrong with our oven (烤箱). It is broken and keeps on repeating that it doesn’t remember how to cook. Dad thinks the shooting star passing by Earth has caused the problem. “I did see a shooting star yesterday,” I said, “Maybe that’s why I had trouble getting Sylvia started this morning. She turned around and around, hardly stood when she tried to take a step, and almost fell backwards. She finally started moving towards me, but then suddenly turned, and went backwards. I thought she was going to knock into a wall. It was lucky that she got her balance in the end and successfully stood up.” At last, Sylvia arrives with our popcorn and drinks. I look at the screen and watch the Olympic Games. Sylvia watches it too. Dad gives her coins as a tip. Sylvia thanks him for the coins and starts to leave the room. Then she turns back to where we are sitting. I hear some clicking sounds. The sounds mean that she is searching her memory chips for information. “During the Olympics I should get medals, not coins,” she says. Dad and I just look at each other. Sylvia doesn’t seem to know that robots aren’t supposed to think. Then we burst out laughing and award Sylvia a gold medal. 27．From Paragraph 3 we can learn __________. A．Sylvia knocked into the wall. B．Sylvia was possibly out of order. C．Sylvia was hit by a shooting star. D．Sylvia wouldn’t like to work for us. 28．Why does Sylvia ask for a medal as a tip? A．Because she has got enough coins. B．Because she works hard for dinner. C．Because she wants to watch the game. D．Because she has learned to think by memory chips. 29．How do Dad and I find Sylvia’s performance? A．Worrying. B．Annoying. C．Amazing. D．Frightening. 30．What is the most suitable title for the text? A．An extraordinary tip for a robot B．Our unexpected life in the future C．The robot—an important helper D．The function of robots like humans Passage 9 （2024-2025学年高二上·重庆·阶段练习）A recent study by researchers at the University of Cincinnati, led by Dr. Alberto Espay, challenges the common idea that monoclonal-antibodies (单克隆抗体) help slow down memory loss in Alzheimer’s patients by removing amyloid-plaques (淀粉样斑块). Instead, the study shows that an unexpected increase in a key brain protein, called amyloid-beta 42 (Aβ42), is more closely linked to improvements in thinking ability. This research was published in the journal Brain on September 11. For many years, experts believed that amyloid-plaques, which form from Aβ42, harm the brain and cause Alzheimer’s disease. However, Dr. Espay and his team suggest a different theory. They believe the real problem is the loss of soluble (易溶解的) Aβ42, which is important for keeping brain cells healthy, rather than the buildup of plaques. Previous research from Dr. Espay’s group showed that Alzheimer’s symptoms appear when Aβ42 levels fall too low, not when plaque levels are high. According to Dr. Espay, the formation of amyloid plaques may be the brain’s natural way of responding to stress, like changes in metabolism (代谢). He points out that many people get amyloid-plaques as they age but do not develop dementia (痴呆). Still, current treatments for Alzheimer’s focus on these plaques. New monoclonal-antibody treatments, meant to clear amyloid, have shown benefits in clinical trials. Dr. Espay’s team studied data from almost 26,000 patients in 24 clinical trials of these antibody treatments. They found that these treatments also accidentally increased Aβ42 levels. This suggests that the improvement in thinking may be because of higher Aβ42 levels. not because of plaque removal. While raising Aβ42 levels seems helpful, Dr. Espay warns that removing amyloid plaques could harm the brain by making it shrink faster. He suggests focusing on treatments that raise Aβ42 directly, without targeting amyloid plaques. “Increasing Aβ42 is the goal, ”he says, “but removing amyloid may not be the right way to do it.” 31．What’s the common idea of treating Alzheimer’s? A．Reducing brain shrinkage. B．Increasing neuron activity. C．Raising Aβ42 levels in the brain. D．Removing amyloid-plaques from the brain. 32．What do we know about Aβ42? A．It is unrelated to the Alzheimer’s. B．It is only harmful when it forms plaques. C．Its loss may lead to Alzheimer’s symptoms. D．It damages brain cells when its levels are high. 33．What can we infer from paragraph 3? A．Everyone with amyloid plaques develops dementia. B．Amyloid plaques may be a protective response by the brain. C．Current Alzheimer’s treatments focus on raising Aβ42 levels. D．Removing amyloid plaques guarantees better cognitive function. 34．Which of the following will Dr. Espay agree with? A．Treatments should focus on raising Aβ42 levels. B．Removing amyloid plaques will prevent Alzheimer’s. C．Amyloid plaques are the main cause of Alzheimer’s disease. D．Increasing Aβ42 levels through amyloid removal is always safe. Passage 10 （2024-2025学年高二上·重庆·阶段练习）The US government just hired a researcher who thinks we can beat aging with fresh cloned bodies and brain updates. Jean Hébert, a new hire with the US Advanced Projects Agency for Health, is expected to lead a major new initiative around “functional brain tissue replacement”, the idea of adding youthful tissue to people’s brains. The brain renewal concept could have applications such as treating stroke (中风) victims, who lose areas of brain function. But Hébert, a biologist at the Albert Einstein school of medicine, has most often proposed total brain replacement, along with replacing other parts of our body, as the only reasonable means of avoiding death from old age. The idea sounds practical since there are already organ transplants. The trickiest part is your brain. That ages, too, shrinking dramatically in old age. But you don’t want to replace it with another—because it is you. And that’s where Hébert’s research comes in. He’s been exploring ways to “progressively” replace a brain by adding bits of youthful tissue made in a lab. The process would have to be done slowly enough. in steps, that your brain could adapt, relocating memories and your self-identity. Hébert has been carrying out initial experiments with mice, removing small sections of their brains and injecting slurries of embryonic cells (胚胎细胞). It’s a step toward proving whether such youthful tissue can survive and take over important functions. To be sure, the strategy is not widely accepted, even among researchers in the aging field. “On the surface it sounds completely crazy, but I was surprised how good a case he could make for it,” says Matthew Scholz, CEO of aging research company Oisin Biotechnologies, who met with Hébert this year. Scholz is still doubtful though. “A new brain is not going to be a popular item,” he says. “The surgical element of it is going to be very severe, no matter how you slice it” Now, though, Hébert’s ideas appear to have gotten support from the US government. 35．What function does brain replacement perform according to Hébert? A．Brain replacement helps people fight against death. B．Brain replacement stops brain shrinking in old age. C．Brain replacement makes old people much smarter. D．Brain replacement cures patients suffering a stroke. 36．What does the underlined word “progressively” in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A．Hardly. B．Completely. C．Gradually. D．Immediately. 37．What is the author’s attitude towards Hébert’s ideas? A．Supportive. B．Objective. C．Critical. D．Doubtful. 38．What can be the suitable title for the text? A．Replacing Your Brain Little by Little B．Slowing Down Aging in Your Real Life C．A Biologist Treating Your Brain Disease D．A Researcher Hired by the US Government Passage 11 （2023-2024学年高二上·江苏苏州·阶段练习）A 20-year-old international student from England was saved from a potentially fatal stroke August 2024 in Suzhou, Jiangsu province, thanks to the city’s rapid and integrated emergency medical response. The student collapsed on Aug 12 while participating in a summer exchange program at a university in Suzhou. His breathing was faint, and he lost consciousness after falling. Yang Xiaoping, from Suzhou’s emergency command center, received the emergency call and quickly determined that the patient required immediate cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). Yang was joined by Zhou Jie, an ICU physician from Suzhou Hospital, who provided precise guidance on executing CPR and other pre-hospital medical procedures via an online first aid platform, supported by nearby bystanders. They also instructed on the use of an automated external defibrillator (AED). Once the ambulance arrived, the patient was connected to an electronic CPR device to maintain uninterrupted chest compressions during transport. Paramedics transmitted his vital signs and other critical data to the Fourth Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University. Upon arrival at the hospital, the emergency team continued CPR for seven more minutes until they successfully recovered a heartbeat and pulse. After completing CT scans and other tests, the patient was diagnosed with a stroke triggered by brain inflammation and was transferred to the intensive care unit. Over the following week, the young man’s condition steadily improved, and he is now stable. Doctors emphasized that the successful rescue underscored the importance of a well-integrated emergency response system. “He’s recovering very well.” said Lu Fan of the emergency team. “For critical cases like cardiac arrest, each step — from on-scene CPR to ambulance care to hospital resuscitation — must operate flawlessly. That’s what allowed this ideal outcome despite the language barrier.” “We are building a systematic public emergency model based on cooperation between AEDs, volunteers, and the emergency rescue dispatch system to initiate a response the moment the emergency call comes in, and the patient is now able to eat and get out of bed.” said Zhang Zhifang, deputy director of the Suzhou Health Commission. The young man’s parents, who flew to Suzhou on Aug 15, expressed their gratitude: “We`re so grateful to everyone — the university staff, ambulance team. Doctor Lu, and all who saved his life,” said the father “We hope to bring our son home alive and well, which would have been impossible without everything everyone has done.” The hospital noted that the online first aid platform, supported by Tencent and launched in July, played a crucial role in the rescue. The platform has already facilitated nine cardiac arrest rescues in its first month of operation. “Previously, we relied only on voice instructions over the phone, which was quite limiting,” said Wang Liang, deputy director of Suzhou’s emergency command center. “Video allows our dispatchers (调度员) to see the actual scene in real time for more precise guidance.” So far, over 28,000 volunteers in Suzhou have completed CPR training, with 22,000 certified as emergency responders. Public AEDs have been installed at major landmarks such as metro stations, with more planned for malls, parks, campuses, and other high-traffic areas, including the university where this incident occurred. 39．What mainly contributed to the recovery of the young man in Suzhou? A．Self-saving and timely surgery. B．Quick response and cooperation of all. C．International medical instruction and help. D．Advanced medical equipment. 40．How did the doctors treat him when he arrived at the hospital. A．They stopped CPR. B．They immediately sent him to the intensive care unit. C．They monitored his heartbeat and pulse. D．They started a surgery. 41．What’s the possible meaning of the underlined word in Para. 7? A．Stressed. B．Attached. C．Improved. D．Limited. 42．Which of the following is true according to the passage? A．There was no language barrier when saving this young man. B．The young man is still in a dangerous condition. C．The online first aid platform played a significant role in-the rescue. D．We’re still relying only on limited voice instructions over the phone. Passage 12 （2023-2024学年高二上·江苏苏州·阶段练习）Health chiefs are to use artificial intelligence to screen and treat people at risk of hepatitis C (丙型肝炎) under plans to wipe out the life-threatening disease by 2030. The NHS scheme, due to start within weeks in England, aims to identify thousands of patients unaware that they have the virus (病毒) so that treatment can be given before it is too late. Staff will use AI to comb through patient health records and look for significant risk factors, such as historical blood transfusions or an HIV diagnosis. Anyone identified by the AI software will be invited for a consultation by their GP and, if necessary, will undergo further screening for hepatitis C． Patients who test positive for the virus — which can be caught from contact with the blood of an infected person, such as by sharing a needle — will be offered antiviral medicines. Professor Graham Foster, chairman for NHS England’s hepatitis C elimination programs, described the scheme as “a significant step forward” in the fight to root out the virus. “Hepatitis C can be a deadly disease which affects tens of thousands across the country but with unlimited access to NHS treatments, innovative patient finding initiatives such as this one…we will continue to boost the life chances of thousands of patients by catching the virus even earlier,” Foster said in an interview. Hepatitis C deaths fell by 35 percent in the five years to 2020, from 482 to 314, according to the latest data from the UK Health Security Agency. New cases also fell from 129,000 in 2015 to 81,000 in 2020. The fall in deaths was largely thanks to earlier detection of the virus and improved access to treatments. Rachel Halford, chief executive of the Hepatitis C Trust, said: “There has been brilliant work to expand testing in a wide range of settings in recent years but we have not yet seen the advances we need to see in primary care. The rollout of this screening programme is therefore another vital step towards achieving elimination (根除).” 43．What is the purpose of the NHS scheme? A．To test the virus and cure patients with hepatitis C． B．To effectively wipe out the life-threatening disease. C．To boost the life chances of patients by eliminating the virus.

B．A boy who has breakfast with his infected friends. C．A woman who works with hepatitis C patients every day. D．A girl who happens to transfuse blood donated by infected patients. 45．What’s Paragraph 4 mainly about? A．The danger of hepatitis B．The advancement of NHS treatments. C．The effects of the programme. D．The urgency of curing the disease. 46．What’s the main idea of the passage? A．Hepatitis C is a life-threatening disease. B．NHS scheme helps to kill the hepatitis C virus. C．Hepatitis C deaths in the UK have declined. D．AI is a new weapon against deadly hepatitis C． Passage 13 （2024-2025学年高二上·重庆·阶段练习）Imagine hopping on a school bus and being transported to an immersive (沉浸式的) educational tour of the inside of the human body—and no, not on a fictional episode of The Magic School Bus. This is the kind of experience that Meta hopes to enable for students, digitally, through its Quest virtual reality (VR) headsets. Bring VR into more classrooms could enable new kinds of learning opportunities. For example, it may allow drama students to feel like they’re having an immersive, real-time experience watching Shakespeare’s work performed at the Globe Theatre in the 17 century. New Mexico University is using the headsets to teach criminal justice students to investigate virtual crime scenes, and Morehouse College has developed a “digital twin campus” to teach students a range of subjects through VR, both through a partner program with Meta to test educational applications of the technology. But VR also creates concerns about digital safety and the potential harm to humans who are having more digital interactions and fewer in-person ones. Moreover, the cost of involving VR headsets in the classroom could be an obstacle to adoption for the many schools already struggling with limited resources. While cheaper than some other headsets on the market, Meta’s Quest 3 devices still start at $499 each. Most importantly, it remains unclear just how useful virtual reality is in helping students learn better. “I think that VR is one area where additional research is necessary,” said Vincent Quan, an education researcher and co-executive director of the Abdul Latif Jameel Poverty Action Lab. “With technology, sure, it can have a lot of promise, but at the same time, there can also be a lot of hype (夸张的宣传), and I think it’s important to carefully evaluate these types of technologies. Sometimes you don’t know if it’s just innovative and cool versus actually impactful.” 47．Why is The Magic School Bus mentioned in the first paragraph? A．To introduce the topic of VR. B．To promote immersive education. C．To recommend a popular TV series D．To advertise a new means of transport. 48．How can VR benefit students according to Paragraph 2? A．By increasing their in-person interactions. B．By satisfying diverse learning requirements. C．By assisting them in understanding concepts. D．By enabling learning beyond time limitations. 49．What can be inferred from the price of VR devices? A．The price will affect that of similar products in the market. B．The price is quite acceptable to both teachers and students. C．VR devices are more cost-effective than other learning tools. D．The price can be a heavy burden for financially troubled school. 50．What does Vincent Quan suggest about VR in education? A．Technology will make it useful and cheap. B．Teachers can depend on it in the classroom. C．It can benefit all students around the world. D．More research is needed to evaluate its impact Passage 14 （2024-2025学年高二上·陕西咸阳·阶段练习）Today when it comes to the use of digital technology, girls have less basic education, leaving them far behind boys. And because the world is more digital, those who lack basic Internet skills will find it more difficult to take part in the formal economy, to get a quality education, and to have their voices heard. Since 2013 the global gender gap (性别差异) in male and female about the Internet has actually increased from 11 to 12 percent. Worse yet, women and girls living in the poorest countries are 31 percent less likely than men and boys to surf the Internet. In developing countries, some 200 million fewer women than men own a mobile phone, the most common means of surfing the Internet there. This digital divide is increasing, and if it continues at the present pace, it is predicted that over 75 percent of women and girls will lack Internet access and digital skills. There are many causes of the digital gender gap. They include girls’ exclusion (排斥) from basic education, from specific technology education and high costs of mobile phones and Internet access. Indeed, one of the so-called reasons why girls may be discouraged from learning how to access and use digital technology is also a groundless (毫无根据的) one: that girls are simply not good at using technology. Without the help of the government, most of the benefits of technological change will be enjoyed only by men, making gender inequality even more serious. 51．What can we know from Paragraph 1? A．Girls usually don’t like to share their ideas. B．Girls don’t have enough digital knowledge. C．Boys are more interested in making money. D．Boys always receive advanced education. 52．How does the writer make his statement in Paragraph 2? A．By listing numbers. B．By giving reasons. C．By following the time order. D．By giving examples. 53．What is the writer’s attitude to the idea that girls are simply not good at using technology? A．Positive. B．Acceptable. C．Negative. D．Uncaring. 54．What is the main idea of the passage? A．Girls are lacking in education. B．Women suffer a lot from poor economy. C．Internet continues to develop fast and fast. D．Girls are at a disadvantage compared with boys in digital technology. 【答案】51．B 52．A 53．C 54．D Passage 15 （2024-2025高二上·北京·阶段练习）For several decades, there has been an extensive and organized campaign intended to generate distrust in science, funded by those whose interests and ideologies are threatened by the findings of modern science. In response, scientists have tended to stress the success of science. After all, scientists have been right about most things. Stressing successes isn’t wrong, but for many people it’s not persuasive. An alternative answer to the question “Why trust science?” is that scientists use the so-called scientific method. If you’ve got a high school science textbook lying around, you’ll probably find that answer in it. But what is typically thought to be the scientific method - develop a hypothesis (假设), then design an experiment to test it — isn’t what scientists actually do. Science is dynamic: new methods get invented; old ones get abandoned; and sometimes, scientists can be found doing many different things. If there is no identifiable scientific method, then what is the reason for trust in science? The answer is how those claims are evaluated. The common element in modern science, regardless of the specific field or the particular methods being used, is the strict scrutiny (审查) of claims. It’s this tough, sustained process that works to make sure faulty claims are rejected. A scientific claim is never accepted as true until it has gone through a lengthy “peer review” because the reviewers are experts in the same field who have both the right and the obligation (责任) to find faults. A key aspect of scientific judgment is that it is done collectively. No claim gets accepted until it has been vetted by dozens, if not hundreds, of heads. In areas that have been contested, like climate science and vaccine safety, it’s thousands. This is why we are generally justified in not worrying too much if a single scientist, even a very famous one, disagrees with the claim. And this is why diversity in science — the more people looking at a claim from different angles — is important. Does this process ever go wrong? Of course. Scientists are humans. There is always the possibility of revising a claim on the basis of new evidence. Some people argue that we should not trust science because scientists are ”always changing their minds.” While examples of truly settled science being overturned are far fewer than is sometimes claimed, they do exist. But the beauty of this scientific process is that it explains what might otherwise appear paradoxical (矛盾的): that science produces both novelty and stability. Scientists do change their minds in the face of new evidence, but this is a strength of science, not a weakness. 55．What can we learn about the so-called scientific method? A．It’s an easy job to prove its existence. B．It usually agrees with scientists’ ideas. C．It hardly gets mixed with false theories. D．It constantly changes and progresses. 56．What does the underlined word “vetted” in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A．Explained. B．Examined. C．Repeated. D．Released. 57．According to the passage, the author may agree that________. A．it is not persuasive to reject those faulty claims B．settled science tends to be collectively overturned C．a leading expert cannot play a decisive role in a scrutiny D．diversity in knowledge is the common element in science 58．Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A．Put Your Faith in Science B．Defend the Truth in Science C．Apply Your Mind to Science D．Explore A Dynamic Way to Science 阅读七选五 Passage 1 （2024-2025高二上·山东·阶段练习）Short-form videos, also known as Shorts, have gained great popularity, particularly on platforms like TikTok and Instagram Reels. 1 However, there’s a growing concern that watching too many Shorts can affect children’s brains. The phenomenon known as “TikTok Brain” arises from the app’s short and addictive videos. Similar to candy, these videos generate rapid dopamine (多巴胺) releases, stimulating the brain’s pleasure center. A study was conducted to investigate the impact of Shorts on the teenage brains. 2 They stimulated the brain’s reward centers more intensely than random videos. Our brains process visual information faster than text, which explains why videos tend to outperform text-based content online. Due to their underdeveloped reading skills, children are more easily to become addicted to visual stimuli. Remarkably, social media platforms can do a lot harm to the development of reading habits among younger users. 3 According to Jessica Griffin, a professor of child psychology, Shorts affect the developing brains of children and teenagers. The prefrontal cortex (前额叶皮质) is responsible for attention, self-control, memory, and learning flexibility. 4 This delayed development makes young individuals more easily influenced by Shorts. In conclusion, the constant exposure to fast-paced and stimulating content in Shorts can impact children’s attention. To address this issue, parents can have open conversations with their children about the potential risks. 5 Furthermore, encouraging physical activities and outdoor experiences is also crucial to develop a balance d lifestyle. A．Some even do not include text at all. B．TikTok’s feed is created addictive by design. C．But it does not fully mature until around the age of 25. D．It is helpful to use screen time management tools for Shorts. E．Short-term memory and the ability to concentrate are affected. F．It revealed that these videos are personalized, selected and fed to users. G．They’re brief attention-grabbing videos that can be entertaining and addictive. Passage 2 （2024-2025高二上·广东汕头·阶段练习） Smartphones allow us to do some great things. 6 The apps allow us to do even more with our phones. One app that encourages creativity among its users is TikTok, also known as Douyin. TikTok is an app used for making music videos that can be shared with others. It provides some parts of popular songs. People can use the  songs as background music in their videos. 7 People record themselves doing dance moves, lip-syncing (对口型) with the music and just having fun. Some users like to make videos when they travel. 8 And of course, videos of cute animals moving in time with the music are always popular. Users can edit (编辑) their videos with different tools. The end results can be quite impressive (令人赞叹的). Users can communicate with each other by leaving comments (评论) or giving “likes” on a video. 9 They are like stars with other users waiting for their next video to come out. The app doesn’t just help make its users more popular. 10 One example is singer Christine Welch, who wrote A Million Possibilities. This song was very popular among Chinese users of the app. Because of that, Christine was invited to sing at a 2019 New Year’s concert in Beijing! TikTok is a form of social media (媒体). It is fun for anyone who likes to be creative or enjoys the creativity of others. A．Its users are certainly creative. B．We can hardly live without technology. C．Users with popular videos can become famous within the app. D．It presents the world’s knowledge that matters in everyday life. E．Others record themselves playing games or doing something very exciting. F．Some musicians’ songs used in the app have also enjoyed great popularity. G．We can play games, search for information online, take photos and watch videos. Passage 3 （2024-2025高二上·重庆·阶段练习） Lessons that are Learned from the Olympics The Olympic Games are enjoyed by everyone. Here are some tips about how to bring the deeper meaning of the Olympics into your life. ◆Excellence comes with hard work and practice. Learning about the training schedules of Olympic athletes reminds us that success doesn’t come easily. Repetition is the servant (仆人) of success. Set long-term goals as well as realistic ones. 11 And remember the most important competitor you have is actually you. ◆ 12 There are hundreds of events at the Olympics, each standing for a specific activity that athletes have chosen to follow. You can recognize the creativity and excitement and form strong feelings about it, which will help you to achieve your dreams. ◆Expect to fail sometimes. Every athlete who has made it into Olympic competition has suffered injury and disappointment along the way, but that has not been the end of their dream. 13 You can treat your setbacks (挫折) as a teaching tool. ◆Enjoy your success. Observe the Olympic athletes when they stand on the winners’ platform with their medals, listening to their national anthems (国歌). Their pride is obvious. Enjoy the feelings of power that come from your achievement. 14 ◆Enjoy other cultures. With its symbol of the five-ring Olympic flag, the Olympics celebrate the unity of the games while honoring individual nationality. 15 A．You deserve it. B．Have confidence in yourselves. C．Work hard for your personal best. D．Find your strong feelings and develop it. E．Enough practice will make you successful. F．Athletes show respect to those from other countries. G．They know that they can learn more from failure than success. Passage 4 （2024-2025高二上·山东临沂·阶段练习） It’s always heartbreaking to learn about a medical problem that’s largely been addressed in the United States but continues to trouble low-and middle-income countries. 16 It was a device developed by two former fellows with the Stanford Byers Center for Biodesign. This foot-operated resuscitator (呼吸机) was designed for clinicians who often must work alone when a newborn struggles to take a first breath. 17 When a newborn fails to breathe, one clinician holds a respirator (人工呼吸器) mask to the baby’s face while another person squeezes a ventilation (给肺提供空气) bag, pushing air into the baby’s lungs. But in low-and middle-income countries such as India, where staff is more limited, resuscitation is not so straightforward. An individual clinician commonly revives the baby alone, using one hand to perform three movements of jaw sticking, chin lift and neck leaning, sealing the respirator mask around the baby’s mouth, and using the other hand to squeeze the bag. 18 Avijit Bansal, MD, a pulmonologist from India, was well aware of this earlier. In 2011, he met a like-minded researcher and they began work on a solution. As the article notes: They developed NeoBreathe, a foot-operated resuscitator. 19 With the freed hand, the operator can multitask more efficiently. The device is now being used in the majority of India’s states, as well as in Kenya, South Africa, Nigeria, and Mali. 20 A．It is helping save lives, and people are taking notice. B．That’s why it was inspiring to learn about the NeoBreathe. C．We have created a new way of performing an age-old procedure. D．Additionally, there are plans to introduce it in Peru, Chile and Argentina. E．Performing this procedure without assistance can have bad consequences. F．In the United States, saving a baby who suffers from birth choke is relatively simple. G．It frees one of the operator’s hands, cuts down on air leakage and significantly improves ventilation. Passage 5 （2024-2025高二上·吉林·期中） Tidying your desk, watering your plants or folding laundry — these household chores are hardly the height of hedonism (享乐主义). 21 . Psychologists suggest there are many potential mechanisms that might explain the perfect pleasure of puttering (慢条斯理地做). They may well encourage you to engage in it more often. Pleasant distractions On the surface level, puttering may be useful because it occupies the mind, so that we give fewer resources to the things that are worrying us. For instance, we may find household tasks can help us focus on the present moment. People completing these small tasks often report a significantly better mood. 22 , as if the immersion (沉浸) in the simple activity had refreshed their minds. 23 Unlike other distracting activities- such as playing computer games or watching trashy TV — puttering also has the advantage of being positive and useful, increasing our “perceived control”. When we feel anxious, a sense of helplessness can heighten the physiological stress response, increasing levels of hormones. Ideally, we would deal directly with the upsetting situation itself. But research suggests we can gain a perception of control from activities that may have little effect on the situation that’s bothering us. Tidy room, focused mind 24 . If your puttering takes the form of organizing and decluttering (清理), you may find that the tidier environment is itself a form of comfort. To summarize, if we see order outside, it helps us to feel a bit less chaotic inside. 25 . A．Being powerful B．A feeling of control C．The benefits do not end there D．We will feel great anxiety in our mind E．This included reduced nervousness and even a sense of “inspiration” F．It is comforting because it makes life easier to manage and more predictable G．Yet we often find ourselves seeking pleasure and comfort in small repetitive tasks ( 20 )原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！ 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 专题03 阅读理解 (阅读单选15篇+阅读七选五5篇) [模考好题20篇](选择必修二) 阅读单选 Passage 1 （2024-2025学年高二上·广西百色·阶段练习） Mr. Wilson, professor of news media, has recently received many questions from his students and answered them online. Here are some of them: • What is mass media? Mass media refers to the sources of information and news that reach a large audience. Besides traditional media, technology has changed and there are many new media introduced to convey information to the masses such as: books and magazines, televisions, Internet videos, films and documentaries. • What is the importance of mass media? Different types of mass media provide us with various types of political, religious, economic and social related news and information. Each media has its significance in some or the other way. For example, a newspaper provides information in rural areas and urban areas as well as a TV which also provides information, news and entertainment shows through a digital medium. • What is traditional media? Traditional media is considered as the oldest form of mass media, which transfers culture and tradition from generation to generation. People over some time developed different ways of communicating through local languages and written mediums. There are various forms of traditional media such as folk songs, fairs and festivals. • Which sector is considered as the root of mass media? The first modern mass media institution began with the development of the printing press. • Are there any problems associated with mass media? As with everything in life, mass media also comes with its own shortcomings. But there are enough experts to make up for that. 1．What has contributed to the popularity of modern media? A．Communication. B．Economic change. C．Traditional culture. D．New technology. 2．Which is described as a traditional mass medium? A．A dialogue between father and son. B．A radio programme broadcasted at night. C．A folk song popular with youngsters. D．A piece of big news via Weibo. 3．What is true of media? A．It offers us all kinds of news. B．The root of mass media is Internet. C．The invention of paper is considered as the root of mass media.

However, it continued in 1900 and 1904, but not as a main attraction. Some of the Olympic events might seem a bit unusual to today’s sports fans. Chariot (战车) Racing Starting around 684 B．C．, drivers raced each other in horse-drawn chariots at the Olympics, sometimes crashing into one another. Only men could join in Olympic events as athletes, but wealthy women could show their support for chariots as sponsors. Because it was a chariot’s funder who received the victory title, not the racer himself, this was the only way women could “win” at the Olympics. Hot Air Balloon Racing The 1896 Olympics lasted less than two weeks; but the 1900 Olympics, which were tied to the months-long world’s fair in Paris, ran from May to October. With the expanded time, the 1900 Olympics featured many more athletes and events than the 1896 Olympics, including various hot air balloon competitions. Hot air balloon drivers competed in terms of distance traveled, altitude reached and best photograph taken from a balloon. However, hot air balloon racing made its appearance for the first time and also the last time in 1900. Live Pigeon (鸽子) Shooting Another event that appeared first at the 1900 Olympics was live pigeon shooting. In this competition, organizers set free pigeons into the air in front of a competitor, who then shot as many as possible. The winner was a Belgian man named Leon de Lun, who shot 21 pigeons. Altogether, the competitors killed around 300 pigeons. Luckily, live pigeon shooting only appeared at the Olympics once. Painting Starting with the 1912 Olympics in Stockholm and continuing until the 1948 games in London, the Olympics held art competitions in painting as well as sculpture, music, architecture and literature. Some people competed in both the sports and art competitions, and two people even won medals in both fields. The art competitions were called off because so many competitors were professional artists, and the Olympics were supposed to make the amateurs(people who didn’t get paid for their athletic or artistic talent) shine. 4．How could a woman be involved in Chariot Racing? A．By training a chariot driver. B．By funding a chariot. C．By competing in the race herself. D．By cheering for her favorite chariot driver. 5．What do Hot Air Balloon Racing and Live Pigeon Shooting have in common? A．They were accepted as Olympic events only once in history. B．They required excellent skills in photography. C．They involved the use of animals as a necessary part. D．They were warmly welcomed by the audience. 6．Why were the art competitions removed from the Olympic Games? A．The costs of organizing them were too high. B．The quality of the artistic works was far from satisfactory. C．The competitors didn’t meet the organizer’s expectations. D．The Olympic Games focused more on promoting sports than arts. 【答案】4．B 5．A 6．C 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了历史上曾经出现在奥运会比赛中而又消失了的比赛项目。 4．细节理解题。根据“Chariot (战车) Racing”部分的“Only men could join in Olympic events as athletes, but wealthy women could show their support for chariots as sponsors. Because it was a chariot’s funder who received the victory title, not the racer himself, this was the only way women could “win” at the Olympics.(只有男性可以作为运动员参加奥运会，但富有的女性可以作为赞助商表示对战车的支持。因为获得胜利头衔的是战车的资助者，而不是赛车手本人，这是女性在奥运会上“获胜”的唯一途径)”可知，女性可以通过为战车提供资金支持来参与该项比赛。故选B。 5．细节理解题。根据“Hot Air Balloon Racing”部分的“However, hot air balloon racing made its appearance for the first time and also the last time in 1900.(然而，热气球比赛在1900年首次出现，也是最后一次出现)”和“Live Pigeon(鸽子) Shooting”部分的“Luckily, live pigeon shooting only appeared at the Olympics once.(幸运的是，活鸽射击比赛只在奥运会上出现过一次)”可知，热气球比赛和活鸽射击比赛都作为奥运会比赛项目出现了一次。故选A。 6．推理判断题。根据“Painting”部分的“The art competitions were called off because so many competitors were professional artists, and the Olympics were supposed to make the amateurs(people who didn’t get paid for their athletic or artistic talent) shine.(艺术比赛被取消了，因为很多参赛者都是专业艺术家，而奥运会本应让业余爱好者（那些没有因运动或艺术天赋而获得报酬的人）大放异彩)”可知，奥运会的艺术比赛本应让业余爱好者大放异彩，然而许多参赛者都是专业的艺术家。由此推知，艺术比赛从奥运会项目中被移除是因为参赛人员并不符合主办方的预期。故选C。 Passage 3 （2024-2025学年高二上·四川南充·阶段练习） Today’s grandparents are joining their grandchildren on social media (社交媒体). People who are over 55 are joining Facebook in increasing numbers, which means that they will soon be the site’s second biggest user group—with 3. 5 million users aged 55－64 and 2. 9 million aged over 65. Surprisingly, 44% of grandparents say they have “excellent” skills in using social media. Sheila, 67, of Swansea, Mass. would put herself in this group. “I joined Facebook to see what my grandchildren are doing, as my daughter posts videos and photos of them. I also show off my garden when it’s in bloom (开花) or how happy my husband and I are when we go for a picnic to my family members. Without social media, I don’t think we would have the same relationship,” says Sheila. Teenagers are spending so much time on their phones at home that they ignore their friends in real life. However, the elderly may not do the same. For example, Sheila has got in touch with old friends from school whom she hasn’t heard from in the past forty years. “We use Facebook to discuss when and where to meet,” she says. “It’s changed my life completely.” Teenagers might have their parents to thank for their smartphone and social media addiction as their parents were the early users of the smartphone. Peter, 38 and father of two teenagers, reports that he used to be on his phone or personal computer endlessly. He says, “How could I tell my kids to get off their phones if I was always in front of a screen myself?” So, in the evenings and at weekends, he takes his SIM card out of his smartphone and puts it into an old－style mobile phone that can only make calls and send text messages. 7．What does the first paragraph show? A．More and more old people are using social media. B．Grandparents become famous on social media. C．Kids teach their grandparents to surf online. D．Facebook manages to increase its users. 8．What can we learn about Sheila? A．She lives far away from her grandchildren. B．She persuaded her friends to use social media. C．She gets closer to her family because of social media. D．She enjoys sharing her grandchildren’s life online. 9．What does the underlined word “ignore” in Paragraph 3 mean? A．Look after. B．Learn from. C．Make room for. D．Pay no attention to. 10．Why does Peter use his old－style mobile phone in the evenings and at weekends? A．To make calls and send text messages. B．To set a good example to his children. C．To stop working when at home. D．To remember the old days. 【答案】7．A 8．C 9．D 10．B 【导语】本文是说明文。简要介绍了不同年龄段的人使用网络的不同习惯。 7．细节理解题。根据第一段“Today’s grandparents are joining their grandchildren on social media (社交媒体). People who are over 55 are joining Facebook in increasing numbers, which means that they will soon be the site’s second biggest user group—with 3. 5 million users aged 55－64 and 2. 9 million aged over 65. (今天的祖父母和他们的孙子孙女一起在社交媒体上。55岁以上的人加入Facebook的人数越来越多，这意味着他们很快将成为该网站的第二大用户群体——有3500万用户，年龄分别为55-64岁和2900万65岁以上的老人。)”可知，越来越多的老年人开始使用社交媒体。故选A。 8．推理判断题。根据第二段““I joined Facebook to see what my grandchildren are doing, as my daughter posts videos and photos of them. I also show off my garden when it’s in bloom (开花) or how happy my husband and I are when we go for a picnic to my family members. Without social media, I don’t think we would have the same relationship,” says Sheila. (Sheila说：“我加入Facebook是为了看看我的孙子们在做什么，我的女儿会发布他们的视频和照片。当花园盛开时，我也会向家人炫耀我的花园，或者当我们去野餐时，我和丈夫是多么的幸福。如果没有社交媒体，我想我们不会有同样的关系。”)”可知，Sheila认为通过使用社交媒体，她和家人的距离更近了。故选C。 9．词句猜测题。根据第三段“Teenagers are spending so much time on their phones at home that they ignore their friends in real life. However, the elderly may not do the same. For example, Sheila has got in touch with old friends from school whom she hasn’t heard from in the past forty years. “We use Facebook to discuss when and where to meet,” she says. “It’s changed my life completely.” (青少年在家里花太多时间在手机上，以至于他们ignore现实生活中的朋友。然而，老年人可能不会这么做。例如，Sheila与学校里的老朋友取得了联系，他们在过去四十年里没有音信。她说：“我们用脸书讨论何时何地见面。它彻底改变了我的生活。”)”可知，这一段通过对比介绍青少年和老年人用手机出现了正好相反的情况，老年人用手机和更多的老朋友取得联系，而青少年应该是减少甚至没有了和朋友的联系，所以ignore的意思应该是“忽视”，和选项D意思一致。故选D。 10．推理判断题。根据最后一段“Peter, 38 and father of two teenagers, reports that he used to be on his phone or personal computer endlessly. He says, “How could I tell my kids to get off their phones if I was always in front of a screen myself?” So, in the evenings and at weekends, he takes his SIM card out of his smartphone and puts it into an old－style mobile phone that can only make calls and send text messages. (38岁的彼得是两个十几岁孩子的父亲，他报告说，他过去常常无休止地打电话或使用个人电脑。他说：“如果我自己总是在屏幕前，我怎么能告诉我的孩子们关掉手机呢？”所以，在晚上和周末，他从智能手机里拿出SIM卡，放进一部只能打电话和发短信的老式手机里。)”可知，Peter在晚上和周末使用老式手机是为了给孩子树立榜样，避免孩子们沉迷于手机。故选B。 Passage 4 （2024-2025学年高二上·江苏泰州·阶段练习） Previous studies of children have found links between use of electronic media and physical health risks. Electronic media use is also associated with social connection. However, comparatively less is known about links with academic performance. To help clarify these links, Mundy and colleagues studied 1, 239 8-to 9-year olds in Melbourne, Australia. They used a national achievement test data to measure the children’s academic performance at baseline and again after two years. They also asked the children’s parents to report on their kids’ use of electronic media. The researchers found that watching two or more hours of television per day at the age of8 or9was associated with lower reading performance compared to peers two years later; the difference was equal to losing four months of learning. Using a computer for more than one hour per day was linked to a similar degree of lost numeracy(计算能力). The analysis showed no links between use of videogames and academic performance. By accounting for baseline academic performance and potentially influencing factors such as mental health difficulties and body mass index (BMI)and controlling for prior media use, the researchers were able to identify television and computer use was associated with poorer academic performance. These findings could help parents and teachers better plans and clinical recommendations for electronic media use in late childhood. Future research could build on these results by examining continued associations in secondary school. The authors add: “The debate about the effects of modern media on children’s learning has never been more important given the effects of today’s Covid-19 on children. This is the first large study of electronic media use and learning in primary school children, and results showed heavier users of television and computers had significant declines in reading two years later compared with light users.” 11．What is Mundy’s study mainly about? A．Electronic media B．Acquisition approaches C．Kids’ health D．Academic performance 12．Which of the following statements may the author agree with? A．Previous studies are inaccurate and unreliable. B．Kids’ capacity to read declines when they apply e-books. C．Kids playing videogames can perform as well as before academically. D．Watching TV will have a negative impact on kids merely within two years. 13．What makes the effects of modern media on children’s learning a hot issue? A．Challenges from public health B．Clinical recommendation on leisure C．Parents’ concern about future D．Tight schedules at schools 14．How did the researchers make the new discovery? A．By inferring from previous studies B．By referring to the national achievement test data C．By analyzing children’s mental health difficulties D．By comparing academic performances before and after 【答案】11．D 12．C 13．A 14．D 【导语】本文是说明文。文章主要讲述电子媒体和儿童的学习成绩之间的联系。 11．细节理解题。根据第一段“Previous studies of children have found links between use of electronic media and physical health risks. Electronic media use is also associated with social connection. However, comparatively less is known about links with academic performance.”(此前对儿童的研究发现，使用电子媒体与身体健康风险之间存在联系。电子媒体的使用也与社交联系有关。然而，相对而言，人们对学习成绩的联系知之甚少)和第二段“To help clarify these links, Mundy and colleagues studied 1, 239 8-to 9-year olds in Melbourne, Australia.”(为了帮助澄清这些联系，Mundy和同事研究了澳大利亚墨尔本的1239名8至9岁儿童)可知，Mundy和同事研究主要是要弄明白电子媒体和儿童的学习成绩之间的联系。故选D。 12．推理判断题。根据第三段“The analysis showed no links between use of videogames and academic performance.”(分析显示，电子游戏的使用与学习成绩之间没有联系)可知，玩电子游戏的孩子在学业上可以表现得和以前一样好。故选C。 13．推理判断题。根据最后一段“The debate about the effects of modern media on children’s learning has never been more important given the effects of today’s Covid-19 on children. This is the first large study of electronic media use and learning in primary school children, and results showed heavier users of television and computers had significant declines in reading two years later compared with light users.”(考虑到当今新冠肺炎对儿童的影响，关于现代媒体对儿童学习影响的辩论从未如此重要。这是对小学生使用电子媒体和学习的第一次大规模研究，结果显示，两年后，电视和电脑的重度使用者的阅读能力比轻度使用者显著下降)可知，使现代媒体对儿童学习的影响成为热点问题的原因在于公共卫生的挑战。故选A。 14．推理判断题。根据第二段“They used a national achievement test data to measure the children’s academic performance at baseline and again after two years. They also asked the children’s parents to report on their kids’ use of electronic media.”(他们使用国家成就测试数据来衡量孩子们在基线和两年后的学习成绩。他们还要求孩子的父母报告孩子使用电子媒体的情况)可知，研究者们是通过对比孩子们前后的学习成绩得出的结果。故选D。 Passage 5 （2024-2025学年高二上·辽宁·阶段练习） Long before Friends made its official debut (首次亮相) in China, the show was a word-of-mouth phenomenon in the country. After Matthew Perry’s death at 54, a Wednesday evening memorial at a cafe in Shenzhen was packed with people and floral (鲜花的) arrangements as the TV mounted in the corner played an episode of Friends. Fans in China are mourning the loss of the star, who felt less like a distant celebrity and more like an old friend. “There were more people who showed up than we expected,” said cafe manager Nie Yanxia. “People shared their own memories about the character Chandler and Friends and many teared up.” “I remember the first time I saw Friends,” said 24-year-old Zhuo Min, who was from Nanjing. “I was shocked to find that people could be so friendly and funny. I started to cherish my friends and family more,” Zhuo said. “Life is short, and we should treasure every moment.” The atmosphere was filled with nostalgia and emotion as fans recalled the impact the show had on their lives. The strong emotional connect ion people felt with the show’s characters led to the larger-than-expected turnout at the cafe. Perry’s photo poster, which read “We love you, friend” at the bottom, was a painful reminder of his influence. The popularity of Friends in China, despite its late arrival on official platforms, is a witness to its timeless appeal. Chinese fans, who had long been introduced to the show through unofficial channels, quickly adopted it as a cultural touchstone, learning English and gaining insights into American life. The show’s vision of urban life resonated (共鸣) deeply with Chinese youth finding their own identity and independence in a rapidly changing society. The passing of Perry has stimulated a wave of emotional reflections. The Central Perry-themed cafes have become gathering places, where people can immerse themselves in the show’s world and share their memories with fellow fans. The impact of Friends and its cast, including Perry, continues to live on in the hearts of its loyal followers. 15．What did Zhuo Min realize after watching Friends? A．People in TV shows are not real.

What makes this “Reels” feature strange is that it is hugely addictive, which I know quite well from my own personal experience. Last Friday, I took a break and hit on one short clip of someone making dinner and, well, the next time I looked up it was 20 minutes later and the blank document on my computer monitor was confirming to me that my work was still not done. However, as silly as it seems, Reels-is actually super important, and is at the centre of a major battle between the world’s largest tech firms. The format (格式) was first pioneered by TikTok-the Chinese-owned video app that has taken the world by storm since it launched in 2016. Today, TikTok has around 23 million UK users every month-including basically every person you know under the age of 25. And that fact has made Facebook and its parent company, Meta, very nervous indeed. As TikTok has continued to boom, Facebook has actually fallen in popularity among “Gen Z”. The reason Tik Tok has proven such a powerful challenger to Facebook’s social media dominance is almost entirely down to these sorts of short-form videos. The format is almost perfectly optimised to be as addictive as possible: Tik Tok’s app shows you a short-form video, and if you don’t like it, you can simply swipe it away and another one will start playing instantly. And because it is portrait, not landscape, videos look “right” when viewed on your phone. What’s also smart is that TikTok’s algorithm (算法) picks videos for you based on what you actually watch, and not what you say you want. Facebook isn’t the only app trying to do what TikTok does so well. Instagram, which is owned by Facebook’s parent company Meta, has integrated Reels even more aggressively into its app. And even Google is nervous, launching its own TikTok-style video section of YouTube(which it owns)a couple of years ago. As things stand, though TikTok currently maintains a healthy lead in the category, both YouTube and Facebook have deep pockets-so expect to see even more Reels and Shorts popping up in your feed as this intense battle continues to rage. You won’t be able to take your eyes off them. 19．Why did the author mention his own experience in paragraph 2? A．To illustrate the feature of short videos. B．To stress the importance of short videos. C．To prove his preference to short videos. D．To introduce the functions of short videos. 20．What do we know about TikTok according to the passage? A．It has shown the trend of the fall in popularity among “Gen Z”. B．It is perceived as a potential threat to Facebook’s social media dominance. C．Its number of registered UK users has reached 23 million since it launched in 2016. D．It underestimates the essential role of short videos in competition with large tech firms. 21．What makes the short videos on TikTok App so popular? A．The beautiful visual effects. B．The high video quality. C．The random recommendation. D．The quick switch between videos. 22．What is the message conveyed in the last paragraph? A．The short videos have a profound impact on our daily life. B．TikTok seems to be losing its advantage over short videos in the short run. C．YouTube and Facebook may encounter financial difficulties in developing Shorts. D．A growing number of tech firms have engaged in fierce competition for the short video market. 【答案】19．A 20．B 21．D 22．D 【导语】这是一篇说明文。科技巨头争抢短视频市场，Facebook、Instagram的Reels与Google旗下YouTube的短片功能，紧跟TikTok模式，激烈竞争，力求抓住用户注意力。 19．推理判断题。由文章第二段“What makes this “Reels” feature strange is that it is hugely addictive, which I know quite well from my own personal experience. Last Friday, I took a break and hit on one short clip of someone making dinner and, well, the next time I looked up it was 20 minutes later and the blank document on my computer monitor was confirming to me that my work was still not done. (这个“卷轴”功能的奇怪之处在于它非常容易上瘾，我从自己的个人经历中非常了解这一点。上周五，我休息了一下，突然看到一个人在做晚饭的短片，20分钟后，我再次抬头看时，电脑显示器上的空白文件向我证实，我的工作还没有完成。)”可知，作者在第二段中提到自己的经历，描述了他在Facebook的Reels功能上观看短视频时，不知不觉就过去了20分钟，这表明了短视频极易吸引人的特点。通过这个亲身经历，作者旨在阐述短视频能够极度吸引用户并长时间保持其注意力的特性，说明短视频的特点。故选A。 20．推理判断题。由文章第三段中“Today, TikTok has around 23 million UK users every month-including basically every person you know under the age of 25. And that fact has made Facebook and its parent company, Meta, very nervous indeed. As TikTok has continued to boom, Facebook has actually fallen in popularity among “Gen Z”. The reason TikTok has proven such a powerful challenger to Facebook’s social media dominance is almost entirely down to these sorts of short-form videos. (如今，抖音每月约有2300万英国用户，基本上包括你认识的所有25岁以下的人。这一事实让Facebook及其母公司Meta非常紧张。随着TikTok的持续繁荣，Facebook在“Z世代”中的受欢迎程度实际上有所下降。Tik Tok之所以能成为Facebook社交媒体霸主地位的强大挑战者，几乎完全归功于这类短视频。)”可知，TikTok被视为对Facebook社交媒体主导地位的潜在威胁。故选B。 21．细节理解题。由文章第四中段 “The format is almost perfectly optimised to be as addictive as possible: TikTok’s app shows you a short-form video, and if you don’t like it, you can simply swipe it away and another one will start playing instantly. (这种格式几乎是完美的优化，尽可能让人上瘾：Tik Tok的应用程序会显示一段短视频，如果你不喜欢，你可以简单地把它移开，另一个视频就会立即开始播放。)”可知，TikTok用户如果不喜欢当前视频，只需滑动即可立即开始播放下一个视频。这种快速切换机制让用户能持续不断地浏览新内容，增强了其吸引力。故选D。 22．推理判断题。由文章最后一段中“Facebook isn’t the only app trying to do what TikTok does so well. Instagram, which is owned by Facebook’s parent company Meta, has integrated Reels even more aggressively into its app. And even Google is nervous, launching its own TikTok-style video section of YouTube (which it owns) a couple of years ago.

You won’t be able to take your eyes off them. (Facebook并不是唯一一个试图做TikTok擅长的事情的应用程序。Facebook母公司Meta旗下的Instagram更积极地将Reels整合到自己的应用程序中。就连Google也感到紧张，几年前在YouTube （它拥有的YouTube）上推出了自己的tiktok风格的视频部分。就目前的情况来看，尽管TikTok目前在这一类别中保持着健康的领先地位，但YouTube和Facebook都有雄厚的财力——所以随着这场激烈的战斗继续进行，预计你会看到更多的Reels和Shorts出现在你的信息流中。你的视线将无法从它们身上移开。)”可知，越来越多的科技公司在短视频市场上展开了激烈的竞争。故选D。 Passage 7 （2024-2025学年高二上·河南·阶段练习） The Summer Olympics in Paris is always impressive, but 2024 promised something extraordinary even before the games began — the seats you are sitting on! Made from locally recycled plastic, these seats are sustainability (可持续性) champions in their own right. The Paris 2024 Summer Olympics made history in terms of sustainability, as 11,000 stadium seats made entirely of recycled plastic are used during the water sports. The plastic used for the seats was collected from recycling bins in the Seine-Saint-Denis neighborhood, and 80% of the 100 metric tons needed for the seats came from this area. The collected plastic was cut and torn into small pieces, processed and turned into new material by a local recycling firm called Le Pavé. After the base materials are produced into plastic seats with different colors, the seats have gone through numerous tests, including mechanical resistance, fire resistance, as well as UV resistance. The recycled plastic chairs proved to be strong and durable, with producers reporting no problems in the production process. The use of recycled plastic seats is part of Paris and France’s commitment to sustainability, with the goal of reducing downstream emissions (排放) by 50% compared to the 2012 and 2016 games. Additionally, the city is working to fight against environment worsening by making the Seine River swimmable for the first time in decades, in an effort to host the triathlon (铁人三项) there. The recycled plastic seats not only promote sustainability but also raise awareness about waste recycling, with children being encouraged to throw their plastic bottles into appropriate bins. The Paris Olympics’ use of recycled plastic seats demonstrates the potential of a circular economy, where waste is repurposed and reused, ultimately reducing the amount of plastic waste in landfills and oceans. 23．What is special about the seats for the 2024 Paris Olympics? A．They won the championship in a competition. B．They are made with a mix of plastic types. C．They are made from recyclable plastic. D．They are produced from local raw materials. 24．Where was the plastic for the seats mostly collected from? A．Recycling firms. B．Local recycling bins. C．All over France. D．International suppliers. 25．What does the numerous tests mainly show in paragraph 3? A．The advantages of the seats. B．The production process of the seats. C．The difficulty of producing the seats. D．The significance of the plastic seats. 26．What is one of the goals of using recycled plastic seats at the Paris Olympics? A．To create continued economic growth. B．To reduce energy consumption. C．To attract more attention to the games. D．To contribute to environmental efforts. 【答案】23．C 24．B 25．A 26．D 【导语】本文是新闻报道。文章讲述了2024年巴黎奥运会的座椅使用可回收塑料制成，不仅促进了可持续性，还提高了人们对废物回收的认识。巴黎奥运会对再生塑料座椅的使用展示了循环经济的潜力。 23．细节理解题。根据第一段“Made from locally recycled plastic, these seats are sustainability (可持续性) champions in their own right.(这些座椅由当地回收的塑料制成，本身就是可持续发展的冠军。)”可知，2024年巴黎奥运会的座椅特别之处在于它们由可回收塑料制成的，故选C。 24．细节理解题。根据第二段“The plastic used for the seats was collected from recycling bins in the Seine-Saint-Denis neighborhood, and 80% of the 100 metric tons needed for the seats came from this area.(座椅所用的塑料是从塞纳-圣德尼附近的回收箱中收集的，座椅所需的100吨塑料中有80%来自该地区。)”可知，这些塑料主要来自当地的回收垃圾箱，故选B。 25．推理判断题。根据第三段内容“After the base materials are produced into plastic seats with different colors, the seats have gone through numerous tests, including mechanical resistance, fire resistance, as well as UV resistance. The recycled plastic chairs proved to be strong and durable, with producers reporting no problems in the production process.

The screen drops down to cover one wall. We give our robot Sylvia our orders for popcorn and juice for dinner. She is only a machine but she looks like a human and helps with the housework. We are having popcorn for dinner tonight because something is wrong with our oven (烤箱). It is broken and keeps on repeating that it doesn’t remember how to cook. Dad thinks the shooting star passing by Earth has caused the problem. “I did see a shooting star yesterday,” I said, “Maybe that’s why I had trouble getting Sylvia started this morning. She turned around and around, hardly stood when she tried to take a step, and almost fell backwards. She finally started moving towards me, but then suddenly turned, and went backwards. I thought she was going to knock into a wall. It was lucky that she got her balance in the end and successfully stood up.” At last, Sylvia arrives with our popcorn and drinks. I look at the screen and watch the Olympic Games. Sylvia watches it too. Dad gives her coins as a tip. Sylvia thanks him for the coins and starts to leave the room. Then she turns back to where we are sitting. I hear some clicking sounds. The sounds mean that she is searching her memory chips for information. “During the Olympics I should get medals, not coins,” she says. Dad and I just look at each other. Sylvia doesn’t seem to know that robots aren’t supposed to think. Then we burst out laughing and award Sylvia a gold medal. 27．From Paragraph 3 we can learn __________. A．Sylvia knocked into the wall. B．Sylvia was possibly out of order. C．Sylvia was hit by a shooting star. D．Sylvia wouldn’t like to work for us. 28．Why does Sylvia ask for a medal as a tip? A．Because she has got enough coins. B．Because she works hard for dinner. C．Because she wants to watch the game. D．Because she has learned to think by memory chips. 29．How do Dad and I find Sylvia’s performance? A．Worrying. B．Annoying. C．Amazing. D．Frightening. 30．What is the most suitable title for the text? A．An extraordinary tip for a robot B．Our unexpected life in the future C．The robot—an important helper D．The function of robots like humans 【答案】27．B 28．D 29．C 30．A 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章介绍了在未来日常生活中智能机器人学会思考的故事。 27．推理判断题。根据第三段““I did see a shooting star yesterday,” I said, “Maybe that’s why I had trouble getting Sylvia started this morning. She turned around and around, hardly stood when she tried to take a step, and almost fell backwards. She finally started moving towards me, but then suddenly turned, and went backwards. I thought she was going to knock into a wall.(“我昨天确实看到了一颗流星，”我说，“也许这就是为什么我今天早上很难让西尔维娅开始工作的原因。她转过身来，想迈步的时候几乎站不住，差点向后摔倒。她终于开始向我走来，但突然转过身来，向后退。我以为她会撞到墙上)”可知，西尔维娅出了故障，故选B。 28．推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“The sounds mean that she is searching her memory chips for information. “During the Olympics I should get medals, not coins,” she says.(这些声音意味着她正在记忆芯片中搜寻信息。“在奥运会期间，我应该获得奖牌，而不是硬币，”她说)”以及最后一段“Sylvia doesn’t seem to know that robots aren’t supposed to think.(西尔维娅似乎不知道机器人不应该思考)”可知，西尔维娅要一枚奖章作为小费是因为她已经学会了通过记忆芯片思考。故选D。 29．推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“The sounds mean that she is searching her memory chips for information. “During the Olympics I should get medals, not coins,” she says.(这些声音意味着她正在记忆芯片中搜寻信息。“在奥运会期间，我应该获得奖牌，而不是硬币，”她说)”可知，机器人西尔维娅会索要奖牌作为小费，可知她的各种表现是“令人称奇的，了不起的”，故选C。 30．主旨大意题。根据倒数第二段“The sounds mean that she is searching her memory chips for information. “During the Olympics I should get medals, not coins,” she says.(这些声音意味着她正在记忆芯片中搜寻信息。“在奥运会期间，我应该获得奖牌，而不是硬币，”她说)”结合本文描绘了一幅未来生活的场景：爸爸和“我”在媒体室看奥运会，机器人Sylvia 提供爆米花和果汁。爸爸用硬币作为小费，机器人则坚持在奥运期间应该获得奖牌，而不是硬币，A选项“对于机器人来说，这是非常棒的小费”最符合文章标题。故选A。 Passage 9 （2024-2025学年高二上·重庆·阶段练习）A recent study by researchers at the University of Cincinnati, led by Dr. Alberto Espay, challenges the common idea that monoclonal-antibodies (单克隆抗体) help slow down memory loss in Alzheimer’s patients by removing amyloid-plaques (淀粉样斑块). Instead, the study shows that an unexpected increase in a key brain protein, called amyloid-beta 42 (Aβ42), is more closely linked to improvements in thinking ability. This research was published in the journal Brain on September 11. For many years, experts believed that amyloid-plaques, which form from Aβ42, harm the brain and cause Alzheimer’s disease. However, Dr. Espay and his team suggest a different theory. They believe the real problem is the loss of soluble (易溶解的) Aβ42, which is important for keeping brain cells healthy, rather than the buildup of plaques. Previous research from Dr. Espay’s group showed that Alzheimer’s symptoms appear when Aβ42 levels fall too low, not when plaque levels are high. According to Dr. Espay, the formation of amyloid plaques may be the brain’s natural way of responding to stress, like changes in metabolism (代谢). He points out that many people get amyloid-plaques as they age but do not develop dementia (痴呆). Still, current treatments for Alzheimer’s focus on these plaques. New monoclonal-antibody treatments, meant to clear amyloid, have shown benefits in clinical trials. Dr. Espay’s team studied data from almost 26,000 patients in 24 clinical trials of these antibody treatments. They found that these treatments also accidentally increased Aβ42 levels. This suggests that the improvement in thinking may be because of higher Aβ42 levels. not because of plaque removal. While raising Aβ42 levels seems helpful, Dr. Espay warns that removing amyloid plaques could harm the brain by making it shrink faster. He suggests focusing on treatments that raise Aβ42 directly, without targeting amyloid plaques. “Increasing Aβ42 is the goal, ”he says, “but removing amyloid may not be the right way to do it.” 31．What’s the common idea of treating Alzheimer’s? A．Reducing brain shrinkage. B．Increasing neuron activity. C．Raising Aβ42 levels in the brain. D．Removing amyloid-plaques from the brain. 32．What do we know about Aβ42? A．It is unrelated to the Alzheimer’s. B．It is only harmful when it forms plaques. C．Its loss may lead to Alzheimer’s symptoms. D．It damages brain cells when its levels are high. 33．What can we infer from paragraph 3? A．Everyone with amyloid plaques develops dementia. B．Amyloid plaques may be a protective response by the brain. C．Current Alzheimer’s treatments focus on raising Aβ42 levels. D．Removing amyloid plaques guarantees better cognitive function. 34．Which of the following will Dr. Espay agree with? A．Treatments should focus on raising Aβ42 levels. B．Removing amyloid plaques will prevent Alzheimer’s. C．Amyloid plaques are the main cause of Alzheimer’s disease. D．Increasing Aβ42 levels through amyloid removal is always safe. 【答案】31．D 32．C 33．B 34．A 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述的是辛辛那提大学的研究挑战了关于单克隆抗体通过清除淀粉样斑块减缓阿尔茨海默症患者记忆丧失的普遍观点，提出可溶性Aβ42蛋白水平升高与思维能力改善关系更为密切，并警告清除淀粉样斑块可能会损害大脑。 31．细节理解题。文章第一段提到“A recent study by researchers at the University of Cincinnati, led by Dr. Alberto Espay, challenges the common idea that monoclonal-antibodies (单克隆抗体) help slow down memory loss in Alzheimer’s patients by removing amyloid-plaques (淀粉样斑块). ( 辛辛那提大学研究人员最近的一项研究挑战了这样一种普遍观点：单克隆抗体通过清除淀粉样斑块来帮助阿尔茨海默症患者减缓记忆丧失。)”可知，常见的观念是单克隆抗体通过清除大脑中的淀粉样斑块来帮助减缓阿尔茨海默症患者的记忆丧失。因此，选项D“Removing amyloid-plaques from the brain.(从大脑中清除淀粉样斑块。)”符合题意。故选D。 32．细节理解题。根据第二段中“Instead, the study shows that an unexpected increase in a key brain protein, called amyloid-beta 42(Aβ42), is more closely linked to improvements in thinking ability. (该研究显示，一个关键的大脑蛋白质——β淀粉样蛋白42（Aβ42）的意外增加与思维能力的提高更为密切相关。)”以及本段中“However, Dr. Espay and his team suggest a different theory. They believe the real problem is the loss of soluble(易溶解的)Aβ42, which is important for keeping brain cells healthy, rather than the buildup of plaques. Previous research from Dr. Espay’s group showed that Alzheimer’s symptoms appear when Aβ42 levels fall too low, not when plaque levels are high. (然而， Espay博士和他的团队提出了不同的理论。他们认为真正的问题在于易溶解的Aβ42的丧失，这种蛋白质对于保持大脑细胞的健康非常重要，而不是斑块的积累。 Espay博士团队之前的研究表明，当Aβ42水平过低时，而不是当斑块水平过高时，阿尔茨海默病的症状才会出现。)”可知，Espay博士和他的团队提出了一个不同的理论，他们认为真正的问题是易溶解的Aβ42的丧失，这对于保持脑细胞的健康很重要，而不是斑块的积累。之前埃斯佩博士团队的研究也表明，当Aβ42水平降得太低时，就会出现阿尔茨海默症的症状，而不是斑块水平高时。因此，Aβ42的丧失可能会导致阿尔茨海默症的症状。故选C。 33．推理判断题。根据第三段中“According to Dr. Espay, the formation of amyloid plaques may be the brain’s natural way of responding to stress, like changes in metabolism (代谢). (根据Espay博士的说法，淀粉样斑块的形成可能是大脑对压力，如代谢变化的自然反应。)”可知，Espay博士认为淀粉样斑块的形成可能是大脑对应激的自然反应，就像代谢变化一样。这表明淀粉样斑块可能是大脑的一种保护性反应，因此B选项“Amyloid plaques may be a protective response by the brain.(淀粉样斑块可能是大脑的保护性反应。)”符合题意。故选B。 34．推理判断题。根据最后一段中“While raising Aβ42 levels seems helpful, Dr. Espay warns that removing amyloid plaques could harm the brain by making it shrink faster. He suggests focusing on treatments that raise Aβ42 directly, without targeting amyloid plaques.  (虽然提高Aβ42水平似乎有所帮助，但Espay博士警告说，清除淀粉样蛋白斑块可能会通过加速大脑萎缩而对大脑造成伤害。他建议专注于直接提高Aβ42水平的治疗方法，而不是针对淀粉样蛋白斑块。)”可知，Espay博士表示, 目标是提高 Aβ42 的水平, 而不是专注于去除淀粉样斑块。因此, 他会同意治疗应该集中在提高 Aβ42 水平。故选A。 Passage 10 （2024-2025学年高二上·重庆·阶段练习）The US government just hired a researcher who thinks we can beat aging with fresh cloned bodies and brain updates. Jean Hébert, a new hire with the US Advanced Projects Agency for Health, is expected to lead a major new initiative around “functional brain tissue replacement”, the idea of adding youthful tissue to people’s brains. The brain renewal concept could have applications such as treating stroke (中风) victims, who lose areas of brain function. But Hébert, a biologist at the Albert Einstein school of medicine, has most often proposed total brain replacement, along with replacing other parts of our body, as the only reasonable means of avoiding death from old age. The idea sounds practical since there are already organ transplants. The trickiest part is your brain. That ages, too, shrinking dramatically in old age. But you don’t want to replace it with another—because it is you. And that’s where Hébert’s research comes in. He’s been exploring ways to “progressively” replace a brain by adding bits of youthful tissue made in a lab. The process would have to be done slowly enough. in steps, that your brain could adapt, relocating memories and your self-identity. Hébert has been carrying out initial experiments with mice, removing small sections of their brains and injecting slurries of embryonic cells (胚胎细胞). It’s a step toward proving whether such youthful tissue can survive and take over important functions. To be sure, the strategy is not widely accepted, even among researchers in the aging field. “On the surface it sounds completely crazy, but I was surprised how good a case he could make for it,” says Matthew Scholz, CEO of aging research company Oisin Biotechnologies, who met with Hébert this year. Scholz is still doubtful though. “A new brain is not going to be a popular item,” he says. “The surgical element of it is going to be very severe, no matter how you slice it” Now, though, Hébert’s ideas appear to have gotten support from the US government. 35．What function does brain replacement perform according to Hébert? A．Brain replacement helps people fight against death. B．Brain replacement stops brain shrinking in old age. C．Brain replacement makes old people much smarter. D．Brain replacement cures patients suffering a stroke. 36．What does the underlined word “progressively” in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A．Hardly. B．Completely. C．Gradually. D．Immediately. 37．What is the author’s attitude towards Hébert’s ideas? A．Supportive. B．Objective. C．Critical. D．Doubtful. 38．What can be the suitable title for the text? A．Replacing Your Brain Little by Little B．Slowing Down Aging in Your Real Life C．A Biologist Treating Your Brain Disease D．A Researcher Hired by the US Government 【答案】35．A 36．C 37．B 38．A 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲的是Hébert计划通过“功能性脑组织替换”来抗击衰老，即在人们的大脑中添加年轻的组织，并介绍了这项计划的具体实施方法和可能遇到的问题。 35．细节理解题。根据第二段的“But Hébert, a biologist at the Albert Einstein school of medicine, has most often proposed total brain replacement, along with replacing other parts of our body, as the only reasonable means of avoiding death from old age.(但是，作为Albert Einstein医学院的生物学家，Hébert最常提出的建议是，完全替代大脑，以及替换身体的其他部分，这是避免老年死亡的唯一合理方法。)”可知，根据Hébert的说法，大脑替换可以帮助人们对抗死亡。故选A。 36．词句猜测题。根据文章第四段“The process would have to be done slowly enough. in steps, that your brain could adapt, relocating memories and your self-identity.(这个过程必须进行得足够缓慢。你的大脑可以逐步适应，重新定位记忆和自我认同。)”可知，这个过程必须足够缓慢，分步骤进行，这样大脑才能适应，重新定位记忆和自我认同，因此“progressively”意为“逐渐地”，和gradually意思相近，故选C。 37．推理判断题。根据文章最后一段的“Scholz is still doubtful though. “A new brain is not going to be a popular item,” he says. “The surgical element of it is going to be very severe, no matter how you slice it” Now, though, Hébert’s ideas appear to have gotten support from the US government.(但Scholz仍持怀疑态度。“一个新的大脑不会是一个受欢迎的东西，”他说。“不管你怎么切，它的外科手术因素将是非常严重的。”不过，现在Hébert的想法似乎得到了美国政府的支持。)”可知，尽管Hébert的想法得到了美国政府的支持，但其他人仍然持怀疑态度，因此作者对于Hébert的想法是客观的，既提到了支持也提到了怀疑，故选B。 38．主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第二段“But Hébert, a biologist at the Albert Einstein school of medicine, has most often proposed total brain replacement, along with replacing other parts of our body, as the only reasonable means of avoiding death from old age.(但是，作为Albert Einstein医学院的生物学家，Hébert最常提出的建议是，完全替代大脑，以及替换身体的其他部分，这是避免老年死亡的唯一合理方法。)”和第四段“The process would have to be done slowly enough. in steps, that your brain could adapt, relocating memories and your self-identity.(这个过程必须进行得足够缓慢。你的大脑可以逐步适应，重新定位记忆和自我认同。)”可知，文章主要讲述了Hébert计划通过“功能性脑组织替换”来抗击衰老，即在人们的大脑中添加年轻的组织，并介绍了这项计划的具体实施方法和可能遇到的问题，因此选项A“Replacing Your Brain Little by Little(一点一点地替换你的大脑)”可以概括文章主旨，适合做标题，故选A。 Passage 11 （2023-2024学年高二上·江苏苏州·阶段练习）A 20-year-old international student from England was saved from a potentially fatal stroke August 2024 in Suzhou, Jiangsu province, thanks to the city’s rapid and integrated emergency medical response. The student collapsed on Aug 12 while participating in a summer exchange program at a university in Suzhou. His breathing was faint, and he lost consciousness after falling. Yang Xiaoping, from Suzhou’s emergency command center, received the emergency call and quickly determined that the patient required immediate cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). Yang was joined by Zhou Jie, an ICU physician from Suzhou Hospital, who provided precise guidance on executing CPR and other pre-hospital medical procedures via an online first aid platform, supported by nearby bystanders. They also instructed on the use of an automated external defibrillator (AED). Once the ambulance arrived, the patient was connected to an electronic CPR device to maintain uninterrupted chest compressions during transport. Paramedics transmitted his vital signs and other critical data to the Fourth Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University. Upon arrival at the hospital, the emergency team continued CPR for seven more minutes until they successfully recovered a heartbeat and pulse. After completing CT scans and other tests, the patient was diagnosed with a stroke triggered by brain inflammation and was transferred to the intensive care unit. Over the following week, the young man’s condition steadily improved, and he is now stable. Doctors emphasized that the successful rescue underscored the importance of a well-integrated emergency response system. “He’s recovering very well.” said Lu Fan of the emergency team. “For critical cases like cardiac arrest, each step — from on-scene CPR to ambulance care to hospital resuscitation — must operate flawlessly. That’s what allowed this ideal outcome despite the language barrier.” “We are building a systematic public emergency model based on cooperation between AEDs, volunteers, and the emergency rescue dispatch system to initiate a response the moment the emergency call comes in, and the patient is now able to eat and get out of bed.” said Zhang Zhifang, deputy director of the Suzhou Health Commission. The young man’s parents, who flew to Suzhou on Aug 15, expressed their gratitude: “We`re so grateful to everyone — the university staff, ambulance team. Doctor Lu, and all who saved his life,” said the father “We hope to bring our son home alive and well, which would have been impossible without everything everyone has done.” The hospital noted that the online first aid platform, supported by Tencent and launched in July, played a crucial role in the rescue. The platform has already facilitated nine cardiac arrest rescues in its first month of operation. “Previously, we relied only on voice instructions over the phone, which was quite limiting,” said Wang Liang, deputy director of Suzhou’s emergency command center. “Video allows our dispatchers (调度员) to see the actual scene in real time for more precise guidance.” So far, over 28,000 volunteers in Suzhou have completed CPR training, with 22,000 certified as emergency responders. Public AEDs have been installed at major landmarks such as metro stations, with more planned for malls, parks, campuses, and other high-traffic areas, including the university where this incident occurred. 39．What mainly contributed to the recovery of the young man in Suzhou? A．Self-saving and timely surgery. B．Quick response and cooperation of all. C．International medical instruction and help. D．Advanced medical equipment. 40．How did the doctors treat him when he arrived at the hospital. A．They stopped CPR. B．They immediately sent him to the intensive care unit. C．They monitored his heartbeat and pulse. D．They started a surgery. 41．What’s the possible meaning of the underlined word in Para. 7? A．Stressed. B．Attached. C．Improved. D．Limited. 42．Which of the following is true according to the passage? A．There was no language barrier when saving this young man. B．The young man is still in a dangerous condition. C．The online first aid platform played a significant role in-the rescue. D．We’re still relying only on limited voice instructions over the phone. 【答案】39．B 40．C 41．A 42．C 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要报道了一名英国留学生在苏州因快速且综合的应急医疗响应系统而得救的事件，并介绍了苏州市在急救方面的努力和成果。 39．推理判断题。根据第三段“Yang Xiaoping, from Suzhou’s emergency command center, received the emergency call and quickly determined that the patient required immediate cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). Yang was joined by Zhou Jie, an ICU physician from Suzhou Hospital, who provided precise guidance on executing CPR and other pre-hospital medical procedures via an online first aid platform, supported by nearby bystanders.(来自苏州急救指挥中心的Yang Xiaoping接到了紧急呼叫，并迅速确定患者需要立即心肺复苏术。苏州医院的重症监护室医生Zhou Jie也加入了杨某的团队。Zhou Jie在附近旁观者的支持下，通过一个在线急救平台，对实施心肺复苏术和其他院前医疗程序提供了精确的指导)”可知，大家的快速反应与配合主要促成了苏州年轻人的康复。故选B。 40．细节理解题。根据第五段“Upon arrival at the hospital, the emergency team continued CPR for seven more minutes until they successfully recovered a heartbeat and pulse.(到达医院后，急救小组继续进行了七分钟的心肺复苏术，直到他们成功地恢复了心跳和脉搏)”可知，当他被送到医院时，医生监测了他的心跳和脉搏。故选C。 41．词句猜测题。根据第七段“the importance of a well-integrated emergency response system(一个完善的应急系统的重要性)”和“For critical cases like cardiac arrest, each step — from on-scene CPR to ambulance care to hospital resuscitation — must operate flawlessly. That’s what allowed this ideal outcome despite the language barrier.(对于心脏骤停这样的危重病例，从现场心肺复苏术到救护车护理再到医院复苏，每一步都必须完美无缺。这就是为什么尽管有语言障碍，但仍然可以取得理想的结果)”可知，这次成功的救援凸显了一个完善的应急系统的重要性，划线词underscored的意思是“凸显，强调”，和stressed意思相近。故选A。 42．细节理解题。根据倒数第三段“The hospital noted that the online first aid platform, supported by Tencent and launched in July, played a crucial role in the rescue.(该医院指出，由腾讯支持并于7月推出的在线急救平台在救援中发挥了至关重要的作用)”可知，在线急救平台在救援中发挥了重要作用。故选C。 Passage 12 （2023-2024学年高二上·江苏苏州·阶段练习）Health chiefs are to use artificial intelligence to screen and treat people at risk of hepatitis C (丙型肝炎) under plans to wipe out the life-threatening disease by 2030. The NHS scheme, due to start within weeks in England, aims to identify thousands of patients unaware that they have the virus (病毒) so that treatment can be given before it is too late. Staff will use AI to comb through patient health records and look for significant risk factors, such as historical blood transfusions or an HIV diagnosis. Anyone identified by the AI software will be invited for a consultation by their GP and, if necessary, will undergo further screening for hepatitis C． Patients who test positive for the virus — which can be caught from contact with the blood of an infected person, such as by sharing a needle — will be offered antiviral medicines. Professor Graham Foster, chairman for NHS England’s hepatitis C elimination programs, described the scheme as “a significant step forward” in the fight to root out the virus. “Hepatitis C can be a deadly disease which affects tens of thousands across the country but with unlimited access to NHS treatments, innovative patient finding initiatives such as this one…we will continue to boost the life chances of thousands of patients by catching the virus even earlier,” Foster said in an interview. Hepatitis C deaths fell by 35 percent in the five years to 2020, from 482 to 314, according to the latest data from the UK Health Security Agency. New cases also fell from 129,000 in 2015 to 81,000 in 2020. The fall in deaths was largely thanks to earlier detection of the virus and improved access to treatments. Rachel Halford, chief executive of the Hepatitis C Trust, said: “There has been brilliant work to expand testing in a wide range of settings in recent years but we have not yet seen the advances we need to see in primary care. The rollout of this screening programme is therefore another vital step towards achieving elimination (根除).” 43．What is the purpose of the NHS scheme? A．To test the virus and cure patients with hepatitis C． B．To effectively wipe out the life-threatening disease. C．To boost the life chances of patients by eliminating the virus. D．To detect patients with hepatitis C for early treatment. 44．Who is most likely to be infected with hepatitis C? A．A man who shakes hands with an infected stranger. B．A boy who has breakfast with his infected friends. C．A woman who works with hepatitis C patients every day. D．A girl who happens to transfuse blood donated by infected patients. 45．What’s Paragraph 4 mainly about? A．The danger of hepatitis B．The advancement of NHS treatments. C．The effects of the programme. D．The urgency of curing the disease. 46．What’s the main idea of the passage? A．Hepatitis C is a life-threatening disease. B．NHS scheme helps to kill the hepatitis C virus. C．Hepatitis C deaths in the UK have declined. D．AI is a new weapon against deadly hepatitis C． 【答案】43．D 44．D 45．C 46．B 【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。文章讲述了根据到2030年消灭丙型肝炎这一致命疾病的计划，卫生部门负责人将使用人工智能技术来筛查和治疗有患丙型肝炎风险的人。 43．推理判断题。 根据第二段“The NHS scheme, due to start within weeks in England, aims to identify thousands of patients unaware that they have the virus (病毒) so that treatment can be given before it is too late.(英国NHS计划将于几周内在英格兰启动，旨在识别数千名不知道自己感染了病毒的患者，以便在为时已晚之前给予治疗。)”可知，NHS的目的是检测出病人是否感染肝炎，以便尽早治疗。故选D。 44．推理判断题。 根据第三段“Patients who test positive  for the virus — which can be caught from contact with the blood of an  infected person, such as by sharing a needle — will be offered antiviral  medicines.(将为该病毒检测呈阳性的患者提供抗病毒药物——这种病毒可能通过接触感染者的血液而感染，例如共用针头)”可知，丙型肝炎主要通过血液传播。由此可知，一个碰巧给受感染的病人输血的女孩最有可能感染丙型肝炎。故选D。 45．主旨大意题。根据第四段“... we will continue to boost the life chances of thousands of patients by catching the virus even earlier(……我们将继续通过更早地感染病毒来提高成千上万患者的生存机会)”，“Hepatitis C deaths fell by 35 percent in the five years…(丙型肝炎的死亡率在五年内下降了35%……)”以及“New cases also fell...(新增病例也有所下降……)”可知，第四段主要讲了新计划的优点和影响。故选C。 46．主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第二段“The NHS scheme, due to start within weeks in England, aims to identify thousands of patients unaware that they have the virus (病毒) so that treatment can be given before it is too late.

This is the kind of experience that Meta hopes to enable for students, digitally, through its Quest virtual reality (VR) headsets. Bring VR into more classrooms could enable new kinds of learning opportunities. For example, it may allow drama students to feel like they’re having an immersive, real-time experience watching Shakespeare’s work performed at the Globe Theatre in the 17 century. New Mexico University is using the headsets to teach criminal justice students to investigate virtual crime scenes, and Morehouse College has developed a “digital twin campus” to teach students a range of subjects through VR, both through a partner program with Meta to test educational applications of the technology. But VR also creates concerns about digital safety and the potential harm to humans who are having more digital interactions and fewer in-person ones. Moreover, the cost of involving VR headsets in the classroom could be an obstacle to adoption for the many schools already struggling with limited resources. While cheaper than some other headsets on the market, Meta’s Quest 3 devices still start at $499 each. Most importantly, it remains unclear just how useful virtual reality is in helping students learn better. “I think that VR is one area where additional research is necessary,” said Vincent Quan, an education researcher and co-executive director of the Abdul Latif Jameel Poverty Action Lab. “With technology, sure, it can have a lot of promise, but at the same time, there can also be a lot of hype (夸张的宣传), and I think it’s important to carefully evaluate these types of technologies. Sometimes you don’t know if it’s just innovative and cool versus actually impactful.” 47．Why is The Magic School Bus mentioned in the first paragraph? A．To introduce the topic of VR. B．To promote immersive education. C．To recommend a popular TV series D．To advertise a new means of transport. 48．How can VR benefit students according to Paragraph 2? A．By increasing their in-person interactions. B．By satisfying diverse learning requirements. C．By assisting them in understanding concepts. D．By enabling learning beyond time limitations. 49．What can be inferred from the price of VR devices? A．The price will affect that of similar products in the market. B．The price is quite acceptable to both teachers and students. C．VR devices are more cost-effective than other learning tools. D．The price can be a heavy burden for financially troubled school. 50．What does Vincent Quan suggest about VR in education? A．Technology will make it useful and cheap. B．Teachers can depend on it in the classroom. C．It can benefit all students around the world. D．More research is needed to evaluate its impact 【答案】47．A 48．B 49．D 50．D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了将虚拟现实技术应用到课堂的现象，并指出了其中的一些问题。 47．推理判断题。根据第一段“Imagine hopping on a school bus and being transported to an immersive (沉浸式的) educational tour of the inside of the human body—and no, not on a fictional episode of The Magic School Bus.

And because the world is more digital, those who lack basic Internet skills will find it more difficult to take part in the formal economy, to get a quality education, and to have their voices heard. Since 2013 the global gender gap (性别差异) in male and female about the Internet has actually increased from 11 to 12 percent. Worse yet, women and girls living in the poorest countries are 31 percent less likely than men and boys to surf the Internet. In developing countries, some 200 million fewer women than men own a mobile phone, the most common means of surfing the Internet there. This digital divide is increasing, and if it continues at the present pace, it is predicted that over 75 percent of women and girls will lack Internet access and digital skills. There are many causes of the digital gender gap. They include girls’ exclusion (排斥) from basic education, from specific technology education and high costs of mobile phones and Internet access. Indeed, one of the so-called reasons why girls may be discouraged from learning how to access and use digital technology is also a groundless (毫无根据的) one: that girls are simply not good at using technology. Without the help of the government, most of the benefits of technological change will be enjoyed only by men, making gender inequality even more serious. 51．What can we know from Paragraph 1? A．Girls usually don’t like to share their ideas. B．Girls don’t have enough digital knowledge. C．Boys are more interested in making money. D．Boys always receive advanced education. 52．How does the writer make his statement in Paragraph 2? A．By listing numbers. B．By giving reasons. C．By following the time order. D．By giving examples. 53．What is the writer’s attitude to the idea that girls are simply not good at using technology? A．Positive. B．Acceptable. C．Negative. D．Uncaring. 54．What is the main idea of the passage? A．Girls are lacking in education. B．Women suffer a lot from poor economy. C．Internet continues to develop fast and fast. D．Girls are at a disadvantage compared with boys in digital technology. 【答案】51．B 52．A 53．C 54．D 【导语】本文为一篇说明文。文章介绍了与男孩相比，女孩在数字技术方面处于劣势这一社会现象。 51．细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Today when it comes to the use of digital   technology, girls have less basic education, leaving them far behind boys.(如今，在数字技术的使用方面，女孩接受的基础教育较少，远远落后于男孩)”可知，女孩没有足够的数字技术知识。故选B项。 52．推理判断题。根据文章第二段“Since 2013 the global gender gap (性别差异) in male and female about the Internet has actually increased from 11 to 12 percent.

In response, scientists have tended to stress the success of science. After all, scientists have been right about most things. Stressing successes isn’t wrong, but for many people it’s not persuasive. An alternative answer to the question “Why trust science?” is that scientists use the so-called scientific method. If you’ve got a high school science textbook lying around, you’ll probably find that answer in it. But what is typically thought to be the scientific method - develop a hypothesis (假设), then design an experiment to test it — isn’t what scientists actually do. Science is dynamic: new methods get invented; old ones get abandoned; and sometimes, scientists can be found doing many different things. If there is no identifiable scientific method, then what is the reason for trust in science? The answer is how those claims are evaluated. The common element in modern science, regardless of the specific field or the particular methods being used, is the strict scrutiny (审查) of claims. It’s this tough, sustained process that works to make sure faulty claims are rejected. A scientific claim is never accepted as true until it has gone through a lengthy “peer review” because the reviewers are experts in the same field who have both the right and the obligation (责任) to find faults. A key aspect of scientific judgment is that it is done collectively. No claim gets accepted until it has been vetted by dozens, if not hundreds, of heads. In areas that have been contested, like climate science and vaccine safety, it’s thousands. This is why we are generally justified in not worrying too much if a single scientist, even a very famous one, disagrees with the claim. And this is why diversity in science — the more people looking at a claim from different angles — is important. Does this process ever go wrong? Of course. Scientists are humans. There is always the possibility of revising a claim on the basis of new evidence. Some people argue that we should not trust science because scientists are ”always changing their minds.” While examples of truly settled science being overturned are far fewer than is sometimes claimed, they do exist. But the beauty of this scientific process is that it explains what might otherwise appear paradoxical (矛盾的): that science produces both novelty and stability. Scientists do change their minds in the face of new evidence, but this is a strength of science, not a weakness. 55．What can we learn about the so-called scientific method? A．It’s an easy job to prove its existence. B．It usually agrees with scientists’ ideas. C．It hardly gets mixed with false theories. D．It constantly changes and progresses. 56．What does the underlined word “vetted” in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A．Explained. B．Examined. C．Repeated. D．Released. 57．According to the passage, the author may agree that________. A．it is not persuasive to reject those faulty claims B．settled science tends to be collectively overturned C．a leading expert cannot play a decisive role in a scrutiny D．diversity in knowledge is the common element in science 58．Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A．Put Your Faith in Science B．Defend the Truth in Science C．Apply Your Mind to Science D．Explore A Dynamic Way to Science 【答案】55．D 56．B 57．C 58．A 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了虽然科学的方法不足为信，但是我们依然可以相信科学，因为任何科学论断的评估都经过严格的科学审查，是由集体完成的，并在不断地被完善。 55．推理判断题。根据文章第二段最后一句“Science is dynamic: new methods get invented; old ones get abandoned; and sometimes, scientists can be found doing many different things. (科学是动态的：新方法被发明；旧方法被放弃；有时，可以发现科学家在做许多不同的事情。)”可知，所谓的科学方法是在不断改变和进步的。故选D项。 56．词句猜测题。根据第三段最后一句“A scientific claim is never accepted as true until it has gone through a lengthy “peer review” because the reviewers are experts in the same field who have both the right and the obligation (责任) to find faults. (在经过漫长的“同行评议”之前，一项科学主张永远不会被认为是正确的，因为评议者是同一领域的专家，他们有权利也有责任找出错误。)”和第四段前两句“A key aspect of scientific judgment is that it is done collectively. No claim gets accepted until it has been vetted by dozens, if not hundreds, of heads. (科学判断的一个关键方面是它是集体完成的。在经过几十个（如果不是几百个的话）人的vetted之前，任何主张都不会被接受。)”可知，科学主张被接受前需要接受同行审查，经受集体论证。由此推知，vetted意为“审查”，和examine意思一致。故选B项。 57．推理判断题。根据第四段中“A key aspect of scientific judgment is that it is done collectively. (科学判断的一个关键方面是它是集体完成的。)”和“This is why we are generally justified in not worrying too much if a single scientist, even a very famous one, disagrees with the claim. And this is why diversity in science - the more people looking at a claim from different angles - is important. (这就是为什么如果一个科学家，即使是一个非常著名的科学家，不同意这种说法，我们通常有理由不太担心。这就是为什么科学的多样性——更多的人从不同的角度看待一项主张——是重要的。)”可知，科学审查是由集体完成的，需要多人从不同的角度审视科学论断，一个人的判断不足以影响整体的结论。由此推知，作者会同意“权威专家不能在审查中发挥决定性作用”这一观点。故选C项。 58．主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章介绍虽然科学的方法不足为信，但是我们依然可以相信科学，因为任何科学论断的评估都经过严格的科学审查，是由集体完成的，并在不断地被完善。由此可知，A项“相信科学”可概括文章大意，适合作为标题。故选A项。 阅读七选五 Passage 1 （2024-2025高二上·山东·阶段练习）Short-form videos, also known as Shorts, have gained great popularity, particularly on platforms like TikTok and Instagram Reels. 1 However, there’s a growing concern that watching too many Shorts can affect children’s brains. The phenomenon known as “TikTok Brain” arises from the app’s short and addictive videos. Similar to candy, these videos generate rapid dopamine (多巴胺) releases, stimulating the brain’s pleasure center. A study was conducted to investigate the impact of Shorts on the teenage brains. 2 They stimulated the brain’s reward centers more intensely than random videos. Our brains process visual information faster than text, which explains why videos tend to outperform text-based content online. Due to their underdeveloped reading skills, children are more easily to become addicted to visual stimuli. Remarkably, social media platforms can do a lot harm to the development of reading habits among younger users. 3 According to Jessica Griffin, a professor of child psychology, Shorts affect the developing brains of children and teenagers. The prefrontal cortex (前额叶皮质) is responsible for attention, self-control, memory, and learning flexibility. 4 This delayed development makes young individuals more easily influenced by Shorts. In conclusion, the constant exposure to fast-paced and stimulating content in Shorts can impact children’s attention. To address this issue, parents can have open conversations with their children about the potential risks. 5 Furthermore, encouraging physical activities and outdoor experiences is also crucial to develop a balance d lifestyle. A．Some even do not include text at all. B．TikTok’s feed is created addictive by design. C．But it does not fully mature until around the age of 25. D．It is helpful to use screen time management tools for Shorts. E．Short-term memory and the ability to concentrate are affected. F．It revealed that these videos are personalized, selected and fed to users. G．They’re brief attention-grabbing videos that can be entertaining and addictive. 【答案】1．G 2．F 3．E 4．C 5．D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了短视频对儿童和青少年大脑发展的影响。 1．根据下文“However, there’s a growing concern that watching too many Shorts can affect children’s brains.(然而，越来越多的人担心看太多短片会影响孩子的大脑)”中“However”可知，上下文有转折关系，下文讲短视频的问题：会影响孩子的大脑”，G项“They’re brief attention-grabbing videos that can be entertaining and addictive.(它们是简短的引人注目的视频，可以使人愉快和入迷)”讲短视频的魅力，与下文构成转折关系。故选G项。 2．上文“A study was conducted to investigate the impact of Shorts on the teenage brains.(一项研究调查了短视频对青少年大脑的影响)”提到一个关于短视频对青少年大脑的影响的研究，F项“It revealed that these videos are personalized, selected and fed to users.(它揭示这些视频是个性化的，经过挑选并提供给用户的)”承接上文，说明研究的结果，句中“It”指代上文“A study”，上下文语意连贯。故选F项。 3．上文“Remarkably, social media platforms can do a lot harm to the development of reading habits among younger users.(值得注意的是，社交媒体平台可能会对年轻用户阅读习惯的养成造成很大伤害)”指出社交媒体平台对阅读习惯的养成的影响，E项“Short-term memory and the ability to concentrate are affected.(短期记忆和集中注意力的能力都会受到影响)”承接上文，说明其具体影响：影响短期记忆和集中注意力的能力，上下文语意连贯。故选E项。 4．下文“This delayed development makes young individuals more easily influenced by Shorts.(这种延迟发育使年轻人更容易受到short的影响)”中提到“This delayed development”，根据指代关系，上文会明确其指代的具体内容，C项“But it does not fully mature until around the age of 25.(但它要到25岁左右才能完全成熟)”和上文“The prefrontal cortex (前额叶皮质) is responsible for attention, self-control, memory, and learning flexibility.(前额叶皮层负责注意力、自我控制、记忆和学习灵活性)”告知，下文的“延迟发育”指的是“前额叶皮层的延迟发育”。故选C项。 5．上文“To address this issue, parents can have open conversations with their children about the potential risks.(为了解决这个问题，父母可以和他们的孩子就潜在的风险进行开诚布公的交流)”提出解决问题的一个办法：父母和孩子进行交流。D项“It is helpful to use screen time management tools for Shorts.(使用屏幕时间管理工具是很有帮助的)”给出另一个办法，建议使用屏幕时间管理工具。下文“Furthermore, encouraging physical activities and outdoor experiences is also crucial to develop a balance d lifestyle.(此外，鼓励体育活动和户外活动对于发展平衡的生活方式也至关重要)”提出第三个建议：鼓励体育活动和户外活动。所以，D项与上下文构成并列关系，就如果解决问题给出切实可行的建议。故选D项。 Passage 2 （2024-2025高二上·广东汕头·阶段练习） Smartphones allow us to do some great things. 6 The apps allow us to do even more with our phones.

This foot-operated resuscitator (呼吸机) was designed for clinicians who often must work alone when a newborn struggles to take a first breath. 17 When a newborn fails to breathe, one clinician holds a respirator (人工呼吸器) mask to the baby’s face while another person squeezes a ventilation (给肺提供空气) bag, pushing air into the baby’s lungs. But in low-and middle-income countries such as India, where staff is more limited, resuscitation is not so straightforward. An individual clinician commonly revives the baby alone, using one hand to perform three movements of jaw sticking, chin lift and neck leaning, sealing the respirator mask around the baby’s mouth, and using the other hand to squeeze the bag. 18 Avijit Bansal, MD, a pulmonologist from India, was well aware of this earlier. In 2011, he met a like-minded researcher and they began work on a solution. As the article notes: They developed NeoBreathe, a foot-operated resuscitator. 19 With the freed hand, the operator can multitask more efficiently. The device is now being used in the majority of India’s states, as well as in Kenya, South Africa, Nigeria, and Mali. 20 A．It is helping save lives, and people are taking notice. B．That’s why it was inspiring to learn about the NeoBreathe. C．We have created a new way of performing an age-old procedure. D．Additionally, there are plans to introduce it in Peru, Chile and Argentina. E．Performing this procedure without assistance can have bad consequences. F．In the United States, saving a baby who suffers from birth choke is relatively simple. G．It frees one of the operator’s hands, cuts down on air leakage and significantly improves ventilation. 【答案】16．B 17．F 18．E 19．G 20．D 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一种创新的医疗设备——脚动呼吸机（NeoBreathe）。 16．根据上文“It’s always heartbreaking to learn about a medical problem that’s largely been addressed in the United States but continues to trouble low-and middle-income countries.(当得知一个医疗问题在美国已经得到了很大程度的解决，但仍在困扰中低收入国家时，总是令人心碎。)”可知，上文提到在美国已经很大程度上解决了的医疗问题在低收入和中等收入国家仍然是一个问题，因此空处应该提到一个解决这个问题的新发明或方法。下文中的“a device”指代B项中的“the NeoBreathe”。B项：That’s why it was inspiring to learn about the NeoBreathe.(这就是为什么了解NeoBreathe鼓舞人心。)符合语境。故选B。 17．根据下文“When a newborn fails to breathe, one clinician holds a respirator (人工呼吸器) mask to the baby’s face while another person squeezes a ventilation (给肺提供空气) bag, pushing air into the baby’s lungs.(当新生儿呼吸困难时，一个临床医生把一个呼吸面罩放在婴儿的脸上，而另一个人挤压通气袋，将空气推入婴儿的肺部。)”可知，上文描述在美国处理新生儿呼吸困难这种情况的方式，所以空格处应该是一个引入话题的句子。F项：In the United States, saving a baby who suffers from birth choke is relatively simple.(在美国，挽救一个患有出生窒息症的婴儿相对简单。)符合语境。故选F。 18．根据上文“But in low-and middle-income countries such as India, where staff is more limited, resuscitation is not so straightforward. An individual clinician commonly revives the baby alone, using one hand to perform three movements of jaw sticking, chin lift and neck leaning, sealing the respirator mask around the baby’s mouth, and using the other hand to squeeze the bag.(但在印度等人员更为有限的中低收入国家，复苏并非那么简单。个别临床医生通常单独救活婴儿，用一只手做粘颚、抬下巴和靠脖子三个动作，将呼吸面罩封在婴儿嘴巴周围，用另一只手挤压袋子。)”可知，在一些中低收入国家，没有助手的帮助进行复苏这种操作可能会产生不良后果。E项：Performing this procedure without assistance can have bad consequences.(在没有帮助的情况下执行此程序可能会产生不良后果。)符合语境。故选E。 19．根据上文“They developed NeoBreathe, a foot-operated resuscitator.(他们开发了NeoBreathe，一个脚动复苏器。)”和下文“With the freed hand, the operator can multitask more efficiently.(有了空闲的手，操作员可以更有效地进行多任务处理。)”可知，空处说明NeoBreathe的优点。下文中的“With the freed hand”和G项中的“It frees one of the operator’s hands”对应。G项：It frees one of the operator’s hands, cuts down on air leakage and significantly improves ventilation.(它解放了操作人员的一只手，减少了漏风，显著改善了通风。)符合语境。故选G。 20．根据上文“The device is now being used in the majority of India’s states, as well as in Kenya, South Africa, Nigeria, and Mali.(该设备目前在印度的大多数州以及肯尼亚、南非、尼日利亚和马里使用。)”可知，空处承接上文，提出更多的国家计划引入这种技术。D项：Additionally, there are plans to introduce it in Peru, Chile and Argentina.(此外，秘鲁、智利和阿根廷也计划引入这种技术。)符合语境。故选D。 Passage 5 （2024-2025高二上·吉林·期中） Tidying your desk, watering your plants or folding laundry — these household chores are hardly the height of hedonism (享乐主义). 21 . Psychologists suggest there are many potential mechanisms that might explain the perfect pleasure of puttering (慢条斯理地做). They may well encourage you to engage in it more often. Pleasant distractions On the surface level, puttering may be useful because it occupies the mind, so that we give fewer resources to the things that are worrying us. For instance, we may find household tasks can help us focus on the present moment. People completing these small tasks often report a significantly better mood. 22 , as if the immersion (沉浸) in the simple activity had refreshed their minds. 23 Unlike other distracting activities- such as playing computer games or watching trashy TV — puttering also has the advantage of being positive and useful, increasing our “perceived control”. When we feel anxious, a sense of helplessness can heighten the physiological stress response, increasing levels of hormones. Ideally, we would deal directly with the upsetting situation itself. But research suggests we can gain a perception of control from activities that may have little effect on the situation that’s bothering us. Tidy room, focused mind 24 . If your puttering takes the form of organizing and decluttering (清理), you may find that the tidier environment is itself a form of comfort. To summarize, if we see order outside, it helps us to feel a bit less chaotic inside. 25 . A．Being powerful B．A feeling of control C．The benefits do not end there D．We will feel great anxiety in our mind E．This included reduced nervousness and even a sense of “inspiration” F．It is comforting because it makes life easier to manage and more predictable G．Yet we often find ourselves seeking pleasure and comfort in small repetitive tasks 【答案】21．G 22．E 23．B 24．C 25．F 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了慢条斯理地做日常琐事可以提供精神上的分散和控制感，以及创造有序的环境来提升人们的心情和减轻焦虑。 21．上文“Tidying your desk, watering your plants or folding laundry — these household chores are hardly the height of hedonism (享乐主义).(整理办公桌、浇花或叠衣服——这些家务活并不是享乐主义的最高境界)”说明家务活并不是典型的享乐行为。空处和前文形成转折关系，并且引出下文。G项中的yet为转折连词，“seeking pleasure and comfort in small repetitive tasks”和下文“might explain the perfect pleasure of puttering (慢条斯理地做)”相呼应，说明尽管家务活并不是享乐主义的最高境界，但是人们还是会在这些琐碎的任务中找到乐趣。所以G项“然而，我们经常发现自己在一些细小的重复性任务中寻求快乐和慰藉”符合语境。故选G。 22．上文“People completing these small tasks often report a significantly better mood.(完成这些小任务的人通常会报告心情明显好转)”以及下文“as if the immersion (沉浸) in the simple activity had refreshed their minds.(仿佛沉浸在简单的活动中让他们精神焕发)”说明完成家务小任务会让人心情明显好转。空处进一步说明心情变好的具体表现。E项中的“reduced nervousness and even a sense of “inspiration””和上文中的“ a significantly better mood”相呼应，也和下文的“refreshed their minds”相呼应，所以E项“这包括减少了紧张感，甚至有一种“灵感”的感觉”符合语境。故选E。 23．下文“Unlike other distracting activities- such as playing computer games or watching trashy TV — puttering also has the advantage of being positive and useful, increasing our “perceived control”.(不像其他分散注意力的活动——比如玩电脑游戏或看低质量的电视节目——慢条斯理地做事情也有其积极和有用的一面，能增加我们的“感知控制力”)”以及“But research suggests we can gain a perception of control from activities that may have little effect on the situation that’s bothering us.(但研究表明，我们可以从对困扰我们的情况影响不大的活动中获得控制感)”说明与其他分散注意力的活动相比，慢条斯理地做事还具有积极和有用的优势，可以增加我们的“感知控制”。所以B项“控制的感觉”适合作本段的主旨句。故选B。 24．标题“Tidy room, focused mind(整洁的房间，专注的思维)”以及下文“If your puttering takes the form of organizing and decluttering (清理), you may find that the tidier environment is itself a form of comfort.(如果你的慢条斯理表现为整理和去杂乱，你可能会发现，整洁的环境本身就是一种安慰)”说明整洁的环境能让人专注，而且如果你的慢条斯理表现为整理和去杂乱，整洁的环境本身就是一种安慰。所以空处承上启下，既总结了标题提到的好处，也引出下文中其它的好处。所以C项“好处不仅仅于此”符合语境。故选C。 25．上文“To summarize, if we see order outside, it helps us to feel a bit less chaotic inside.(总结来说，如果我们看到外界是有序的，这会帮助我们感觉到内心不那么混乱)”说明整洁的外部环境能带来内心的平静。空处顺接前文，进一步说明整洁的外部环境带来的好处。F项“这让人感到安慰，因为它使生活更容易管理且更具可预测性”符合语境，it指代前文中提到的“order outside”。故选F。 ( 30 )原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！ 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
