She’d walk to a school, change into a loose T-shirt and trousers and practise breaking — a street dance style. This routine lasted for a year until she participated in competitions and showed videos to her parents. “ 2 Seeing my skills, they realised that I was serious about my career choice,” says Singh, 23, whose stage name is B-Girl Flow Raw. Last year, she represented India at Queen 16, a breaking festival in Germany with participants from Spain, Russia and Korea. In India, many women shy away from breaking, says Singh. Every move — from simple movements to backflips — is physically demanding.” 3 Both boys and girls look awkward when dancing, but it’s usually the girls who feel more out of place. This builds up the pressure and they give it up, so only a minority of young girls practice the dance,“ adds Johanna Rodrigues, also known as B-Girl Jo, 23. For the B-Girls, breaking is not just about competing but a journey of self-expression and self- exploration. They all think that it is rewarding. Amita Vighe, 27, an engineer who has been moonlighting as B-Girl Amy since 2009, says, “ 4 ” There’s less competition and more connections among the dancers. Early this year, when Rodrigues won a competition against a B-Boy from Mumbai, she received messages from women breakers from across India. She concludes, “ 5 ” A．It was a victory for all of us. B．It takes a year to perfect the basics. C．Boys do better than girls in breaking. D．My parents have been supporting my decision. E．Every evening, she would secretly leave her home. F．They believed that breaking was only meant for boys. G．Breaking has built my confidence, helping me stand out in my career. 【答案】1．E 2．F 3．B 4．G 5．A 【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。文章报道了印度女孩跳霹雳舞，打破了霹雳舞的性别界限。 1．根据后文“Then she would wait for her sister to throw some clothes and a pair of shoes from the window.

This builds up the pressure and they give it up, so only a minority of young girls practice the dance,“ adds Johanna Rodrigues, also known as B-Girl Jo, 23.(男孩和女孩在跳舞时看起来都很尴尬，但通常是女孩感到更不自在。这增加了她们的压力，于是她们放弃了，所以只有少数年轻女孩练习跳舞，”23岁的约翰娜·罗德里格斯补充道，她也被称为B-Girl Jo)”可知，霹雳舞对跳舞者的体力要求很高，故B选项“要花一年的时间来完善基本功”符合语境，故选B。 4．根据上文“For the B-Girls, breaking is not just about competing but a journey of self-expression and self- exploration. They all think that it is rewarding. Amita Vighe, 27, an engineer who has been moonlighting as B-Girl Amy since 2009, says, (对B女孩来说，霹雳舞不仅仅是竞争，而是自我表达和自我探索的旅程。他们都认为这是值得的。27岁的阿米塔·维格是一名工程师，从2009年开始兼职B-Girl艾米，她说……)”可知，霹雳舞是个自我表达和自我探索的过程，本句主要是在说明艾米对于霹雳舞的看法。故G选项“霹雳舞建立了我的信心，帮助我在职业生涯中脱颖而出”符合语境，故选G。 5．根据上文“There’s less competition and more connections among the dancers. Early this year, when Rodrigues won a competition against a B-Boy from Mumbai, she received messages from women breakers from across India. She concludes(舞者之间的竞争更少，联系更多。今年年初，罗德里格斯在一场比赛中战胜了来自孟买的一名B-Boy，她收到了来自印度各地的女舞者的留言。她的结论是……)”可知，舞者之间更多的是情感纽带而非互相竞争，而该空前提到Rodrigues赢得了比赛，并收到了来自印度各地女性霹雳舞选手的信息，推测本句是在说明其带来的好处。故A选项“这是我们所有人的胜利”符合语境，故选A。 （24-25高三上·河南·开学考试）Valuable Life Lessons Learned From Remember The Titans I have seen a lot of movies till now, can’t even begin to count them but there are some movies that take your emotions on a roller coaster. 1 You become a part of them as they become a part of you.

There are some answers to this question, which might surprise you. While tail chasing can be a harmless behavior, sometimes it can indicate a potential issue requiring a vet visit. Below are some common meanings behind your dog chasing its tail. 1 It might look like a strange activity to humans, but tail- chasing is a simple way for dogs to let loose and have a little fun. 2 Just keep in mind that a constantly bored or stressed dog might be feeling left out, so make sure its basic needs are being met, including exercise and socialization. Your dog is feeling stressed. On the other hand, uncontrollable tail- chasing behavior could be a warning sign that your dog is anxious or stressed. 3 By the way, this fruitless and frustrating behavior is what led to the saying “like a dog chasing its tail”. Your dog wants your attention. Tail- chasing is actually a go- to behavior for young dogs who are playing and learning about their bodies. And it’s hard not to smile when you see this happening, especially in puppies, because it’s funny and adorable. But this type of response can cause your pup to keep doing it. Try not to encourage this behavior. 4 Your dog may have intestinal parasites (肠道寄生虫). This is another common reason why dogs chase their tails. It’s also a reason why dogs chew their tails, too. Infections are generally common in young dogs and can even be deadly in some puppies if left untreated. 5 If your dog is chasing their tail a lot, it’s best to rule out any medical issues first, so always get in touch with your vet who will be able to examine them and find the root of the problem. A．Your dog wants exercise. B．Your dog is expressing its emotion. C．Your pup will form the habit of tail chasing. D．Instead, provide a distraction by giving your dog a new toy or going on a walk. E．Find out what’s at the root of your dog’s anxiety and then address that problem. F．Common types of parasites include tapeworms, roundworms, hookworms and so on.

Try not to encourage this behavior.(当你看到这种情况发生时，很难不微笑，尤其是在小狗身上，因为这很有趣，也很可爱。 但是这种类型的反应会导致你的狗狗继续这样做。 尽量不要鼓励这种行为。)”可知，作者建议不要用微笑这样的行为鼓励狗的追尾巴行为，那么见到狗追尾巴应该怎样做呢？D项“Instead, provide a distraction by giving your dog a new toy or going on a walk.(相反，给你的狗一个新玩具或散散步来分散注意力。)”给出了建议，所以，D项填入空格处，符合语境。故选D项。 5．根据该部分的主题句“Your dog may have intestinal parasites(你的狗可能有肠道寄生虫)”和空格前的句子“This is another common reason why dogs chase their tails. It’s also a reason why dogs chew their tails, too. Infections are generally common in young dogs and can even be deadly in some puppies if left untreated.(这是狗追逐尾巴的另一个常见原因。这也是狗咬尾巴的原因之一。感染在幼犬中很常见，如果不及时治疗，一些幼犬甚至可能致命。)”可知，空格处的句子应该涉及到狗可能会感染的寄生虫，所以，F项“Common types of parasites include tapeworms, roundworms, hookworms and so on.(常见的寄生虫有绦虫、蛔虫、钩虫等。)”填入空格处，符合语境。故选F项。 （2024·四川巴中·一模）Exercise is an integral part of a healthy lifestyle. Some prefer running right away in the morning, while others enjoy a late afternoon workout. 1 While there’s evidence that late afternoon is the optimum (最佳的) time for a workout, other times also bring benefits. No matter what, the best time to exercise is the time that works best for you. According to research, you’ll get optimum results when your body temperature is at its highest. For most people, that’s between 4 p. m. and 5 p. m., though some studies extend this time to 7 p. m. 2 Exercisers tend to perform better on physical performance tests measuring aerobic capacity and reaction time. In the morning, your body temperature is at the lowest point of the day. This indicates the morning isn’t the best time to exercise. However, running in the morning may help keep you motivated. Additionally, early morning is the coolest part of the day during warmer months. 3 When it comes to choosing the right time for workouts, adapt your routine to fit your lifestyle. Letting your exercise routine naturally fit into your schedule can relieve the stress of finding time to work out. 4 While you may not feel normally like working out during the time when you are available, it’s possible to adjust your biological clock to your schedule. 5 For instance, if you are training for a marathon, running in the morning can prepare you for the event because most marathons begin in the morning. Whatever sport you participate in, training during those times will help your body perform better on the game day. A．This will help you stick to it. B．You need to get an adequate amount of sleep. C．It is within these few hours that strength and endurance peak. D．Is there any advantage of exercising at any specific time of day? E．You’ll be safer and more comfortable if you run when it’s not hot. F．Your exercise time should agree with the sport you’re training for. G．This is a topic of much debate among athletes and exercise experts. 【答案】1．D 2．C 3．E 4．A 5．F 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了锻炼的最佳时间，以及如何根据个人生活方式和训练目标选择适合的锻炼时间。 1．根据空前“Some prefer running right away in the morning, while others enjoy a late afternoon workout.(有些人喜欢一大早就去跑步，而另一些人则喜欢在下午晚些时候锻炼。)”以及空后“While there’s evidence that late afternoon is the optimum (最佳的) time for a workout, other times also bring benefits.（虽然有证据表明傍晚是锻炼的最佳时间，但其他时间也有好处。）”可知，空处的内容承上启下，应与锻炼的时间有关，D选项“一天中的特定时间锻炼有什么好处吗？”符合题意。故选D。 2．根据“For most people, that’s between 4 p. m. and 5 p. m., though some studies extend this time to 7 p. m.(对于大多数人来说，这段时间是在下午4点到5点之间，尽管有些研究将这一时间延长到晚上7点。)”可知，大多数人会在下午四点到五点或者延伸到7点能达到最佳效果。C选项中的“within these few hours”与“between 4 p. m. and 5 p. m.”相互呼应，C选项“在这些时间段内，力量和耐力达到峰值。”说明要在这段时间锻炼的原因，符合题意。故选C。 3．根据“Additionally, early morning is the coolest part of the day during warmer months.(此外，早晨是较暖月份中一天中最凉快的时间。)”可知，早晨天气凉爽，锻炼应该是最舒适的。E选项中的“when it’s not hot”与“the coolest part of the day”相互呼应，E选项“如果你在不热的时候跑步，你会更安全、更舒适。”符合题意，故选E。 4．根据“Letting your exercise routine naturally fit into your schedule can relieve the stress of finding time to work out.(让你的锻炼计划自然地融入你的日程安排，可以减轻找到锻炼时间的压力。)”可知，让锻炼计划融入日程安排可以更容易坚持下去。A选项中的“This”指代“Letting your exercise routine naturally fit into your schedule”；“it”指代“work out”。A选项“这将帮助你坚持下去。”符合题意。故选A。 5．根据“Whatever sport you participate in, training during those times will help your body perform better on the game day.(无论从事哪种运动，在相应时间段进行训练能帮助身体在比赛当天发挥更好。)”可知，锻炼时间应该与所进行的运动类型一致。F选项“你的锻炼时间应与所训练的运动项目相一致。”符合文意。故选F。 （24-25高三上·山西长治·阶段练习）It is never fun to listen to criticism. If it is constructive, then you can use it to become a more well-rounded person. If it’s only meant to harm you, then you can work on shaking it off like a bad habit. How to deal with criticism wisely? 1 Accept that you’re not perfect. This is a great way to deal with criticism. To be able to take a little bit of feedback (反馈), you can’t keep thinking that you can do no wrong. Nobody’s perfect, so if you think you’re perfect, then you’re nobody. Every person has disadvantages. 42 See if there’s some truth to it. If the feedback is coming from a person who has your best interest in mind, then you have to consider the possibility that there really is some truth to those words. 3 If ten people say that you are selfish, then they can’t all be wrong, can they? Take a moment to consider the possibility that this person is really on to something. 4 If you have received some criticism delivered in a friendly and helpful way, or just in a way meant to be honest and clear, just take the time to thank the person and to say that you appreciate the fact that the person told you something that can make you an even better friend, student, or professional. Stop making excuses. If someone is giving you reasonable criticism, stop making excuses. If you get defensive and make excuses, then the person won’t be able to finish telling you exactly what he or she means, and you won’t get the information you need to really improve. It’s natural that we feel defensive and get the feeling that we can do no wrong. 5 A．Thank the person for being honest. B．The following tips can be helpful to you. C．Work on being less sensitive. D．If you don’t see any of yours, you’re not analyzing yourself as closely as you should. E．It’s even more likely if you’ve heard similar comments before. F．Most people are able to deal with criticism properly. G．But it’s important to hear people out before you cut them off to prove you’re perfect. 【答案】1．B 2．D 3．E 4．A 5．C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了明智地对待批评的一些建议，接受不完美，认真听取他人的批评，真诚感谢他人，别找借口。 1．前文“How to deal with criticism wisely? (如何明智地对待批评？)”引出明智地对待批评的话题，后文四个段落给出了具体的建议，因此B项“The following tips can be helpful to you. (下面的建议可能会对你有所帮助。)”符合语境，提到下面分享建议，承前启后。故选B。 2．前文“Nobody’s perfect, so if you think you’re perfect, then you’re nobody. Every person has disadvantages. (没有人是完美的，所以如果你认为自己是完美的，那你就什么都不是。每个人都有缺点。)”提到人人不完美，都有缺点，因此D项“If you don’t see any of yours, you’re not analyzing yourself as closely as you should. (如果你看不到自己的任何缺点，那你就没有充分地分析自己。)”符合语境，指出看不到自己的缺点意味着没有充分地分析自己，承接前文。故选D。 3．前文“If the feedback is coming from a person who has your best interest in mind, then you have to consider the possibility that there really is some truth to those words. (如果反馈来自一个最关心你的人，那么你必须考虑这些话是否真的有一些道理。)”建议去考虑最关心自己的人给出的反馈，后文“If ten people say that you are selfish, then they can’t all be wrong, can they? (如果十个人都说你自私，那他们不可能都是错的，对吧？)”指出别人一致给出的评论很有可能是中肯的，因此E项“It’s even more likely if you’ve heard similar comments before. (如果你之前听过类似的评论，那就更有可能了。)”符合语境，指出类似的评论的存在表明别人的反馈很可能真的有道理，承前启后，后一句是对选项内容的解释和支撑。故选E。 4．空处位于段首，是段落主旨句，需统领段落内容，且需和其他段首句一样使用祈使句的形式，根据后文“If you have received some criticism delivered in a friendly and helpful way, or just in a way meant to be honest and clear, just take the time to thank the person and to say that you appreciate the fact that the person told you something that can make you an even better friend, student, or professional. (如果你收到了一些以友好和有益的方式传达的批评，或者只是以一种诚实和清晰的方式，那就花点时间感谢那个人，并说你很感激这个人告诉你的事情，这会让你成为更好的朋友、学生或专业人士。)”可知，本段主要建议感谢他人善意地向自己传达批评，因此A项“Thank the person for being honest. (感谢对方的诚实。)”符合语境，指出要表达感谢，契合段落内容。故选A。 5．前文“It’s natural that we feel defensive and get the feeling that we can do no wrong. (我们很自然地会感到自我防卫，觉得自己不会做错。)”提到面对批评有自我防卫的反应是自然的，因此C项“Work on being less sensitive. (学着不那么敏感。)”符合语境，给出处理这种反应的建议，要学会不那么敏感，承接前文。故选C。 （24-25高三上·山西晋城·阶段练习）I am often struck by the thought that there is this huge life enhancing potential available to everyone on the planet that maybe we don’t always take great advantage of. 1 Through it, we help ourselves and others by sharing the things we have learned. 2 I have been teaching and preaching from the time when it occurred to me that I had some really great stuff to share. But, strangely, it took me a long time to really identify what it was that I was doing, at least enough to put it into words. So, I’d like to share with you my thoughts on why teaching and sharing your knowledge can be so important to you as well as to the people around you. 3 See whether it profoundly enhanced so many parts of your life, even in the areas you’re already super successful in. Here is what makes teaching so great for the person doing the teaching. Any goal, habit, human quality, or desire that you start preaching, teaching, or pontificating about will automatically, and almost without effort, push you to do more of it yourself. 4 It pushes you to do what you are encouraging and teaching others to do. I am totally convinced this will, and does, work that way for everyone. What knowledge do you have, or have you learned that you want to be reminded and pushed to improve in your life? If you want to do better at it, there will be plenty of others that will want to do better at it too. 5 A．It’s our ability to teach other people. B．We just need to talk and teach others about it. C．Doing this has been changing and helping my life for years now. D．Please, think deeply about this and then put it into practice in any way you can. E．Be sure to write down your goals and objectives as well so you can stay on track. F．The knowledge you share, whether spoken or written, is like a truth drug for the mind. G．So, why not teach and share what you know and help yourself do better and better at these things? 【答案】1．A 2．C 3．D 4．F 5．G 【导语】本文是说明文。文章讲述了分享知识，教授他人的益处，并提议大家学习分享教授自己的知识。 1．根据前文“I am often struck by the thought that there is this huge life enhancing potential available to everyone on the planet that maybe we don’t always take great advantage of. (我经常被这样一个想法所震撼，这个星球上的每个人都有巨大的提升生命的潜力，也许我们并不总是能很好地利用它。)”和后文“Through it, we help ourselves and others by sharing the things we have learned. (通过它，我们通过分享我们所学到的东西来帮助自己和他人。)”可知，此处提到了一种巨大的潜力，下文提到巨大潜力的作用，因此推断空处解释这种潜力是什么。A项“它是我们教导他人的能力。”符合语境，指出这种潜力是我们教导他人的能力。通过这种能力我们可以分享我们所学到的东西，故选A。 2．根据后文“I have been teaching and preaching from the time when it occurred to me that I had some really great stuff to share. But, strangely, it took me a long time to really identify what it was that I was doing, at least enough to put it into words. ( 我一直在教导和讲道，这时候我想到我有一些真正伟大的东西要分享的时候。但是，奇怪的是，我花了很长时间才真正确定我在做什么，至少足以用语言表达出来。)”可知，本段讲述作者运用这种能力影响他人以及自己获得感悟。因此推断C项“多年来，这样做一直在改变和帮助我的生活。”符合语境，说明这种能力对作者的生活产生了积极影响。故选C。 3．根据前文“So, I’d like to share with you my thoughts on why teaching and sharing your knowledge can be so important to you as well as to the people around you. ( 所以，我想和你分享我的想法，为什么教学和分享你的知识对你和你周围的人都是如此重要。)”可知，此处讲述作者想分享为什么教学和分享知识对自己和他人都很重要，接下来应该是让读者思考并实践。D项“请深入思考这个问题，然后尽你所能地把它付诸实践”符合语境，呼应前文并引导读者思考和实践。承接下文“See whether it profoundly enhanced so many parts of your life, even in the areas you’re already super successful in. (看看它是否深刻地改善了你生活的许多方面，即使是在你已经非常成功的领域。)”故选D。 4．根据前文“Any goal, habit, human quality, or desire that you start preaching, teaching, or pontificating about will automatically, and almost without effort, push you to do more of it yourself. (任何目标、习惯、人性或欲望，只要你开始说教、教导或自以为是，就会自动地、几乎毫不费力地推动你自己去做更多的事情。)”可知，这里提到教授会推动自己去做更多的事情，接下来应该是进一步解释这种推动力。F项“你分享的知识，无论是口头的还是书面的，都像一剂心灵的真理药。”符合语境，说明分享的知识对心灵的影响。故选F。 5．根据前文“What knowledge do you have, or have you learned that you want to be reminded and pushed to improve in your life? If you want to do better at it, there will be plenty of others that will want to do better at it too. (你拥有什么知识，或者你学到了你想要被提醒和推动改进你的生活吗？?如果你想做得更好，就会有很多人也想做得更好。)”可知，这里提到如果你想在某方面做得更好，其他人也会有同样的愿望，接下来应该是鼓励读者去教导和分享。因此推断G项“所以，为什么不传授和分享你所知道的，帮助自己在这些事情上做得越来越好呢?”符合语境，故选G。 （24-25高三上·陕西西安·阶段练习）When faced with a glass half full of water, some people perceive it to be half full, while others view it as half empty. Apparently, some people are just happier than others. You can change your set range to increase your level of happiness, though. Go with the “flow” 1 . When you’re so fully engaged in what you’re doing that you don’t notice the passage of time, you are in a state called “flow”, which is associated with joy. In your daily life, try to increase the number of “flow” experiences in which you lose yourself. 2 Take a moment to do nice things for others throughout your day. Treating other people well brings on positive results. It makes you feel generous and capable and leads you to feel grateful for your own situation. It also gives joy to other people and leads them to like you more and repay in your times of need. 3 . Express gratitude Counting your blessings is a great way to review the positive things in your life. One way to do this is by taking time during the week to consider three or five things for which you are currently grateful. 4 . You can do it when you're going to sleep at night or during your commute (上下班路程) . Another idea is to call or write a note of appreciation to an important person in your life. Celebrate good news Sharing successes and accomplishments with others has been linked to elevated joy and well-being.

(当你全神贯注地做你正在做的事情，以至于你没有注意到时间的流逝时，你就处于一种叫做“心流”的状态，这与快乐有关)”说明了“心流”的状态。空处引出下文“心流”的概念。B项中的“Become absorbed in”和下文中的“you’re so fully engaged in”相呼应，说明“全神贯注于你所做的事情”，这样就会出现“心流”状态。故选B。 2．下文“Take a moment to do nice things for others throughout your day. Treating other people well brings on positive results.

One way to do this is by taking time during the week to consider three or five things for which you are currently grateful.(感恩是一种很好的方式，可以回顾生活中积极的方面。其中一个做法是在一周中花些时间思考你现在所感激的三到五件事)”以及下文“You can do it when you're going to sleep at night or during your commute (上下班路程) .(你可以在晚上睡觉或上下班途中做这件事)”说明感恩的积极效果，并介绍了具体做法。空处承上启下，C项中的This指代上文中“在一周中花些时间思考你现在所感激的三到五件事”，而下文中的it指代C项中的thinking，所以C项“这可以通过思考来完成。”符合语境。故选C。 5．上文“Sharing successes and accomplishments with others has been linked to elevated joy and well-being.When your cousin or best friend wins an honor, congratulate them and celebrate it.(与他人分享成功和成就与提升快乐和幸福感有关。当你的堂兄或最好的朋友赢得荣誉时，祝贺他们并庆祝)”说明与他人分享好消息后的积极效果。空处顺接前文，说明在和他人分享成功的场合中，应当充分享受当中的乐趣。所以E项“尽量充分享受这个场合”，符合语境。故选E。 （24-25高三上·河南·阶段练习）While I admit my love for the convenience of modernity, 1 . I daydream of sitting in the writing letters to a sister, pages filled with script and the sound of an ink- dipped metal nib (钢笔尖) scratching along the paper. 2 . And I was surprised to hear from parents at other schools that their children weren’t learning how to write in script. And indeed, in 2010, the Common Core standards stopped requiring the teaching of cursive (草书) in public schools. But it appears the tide is turning, and the curlicued (花体的) linked letters — and block printing, too, my personal print of choice — will not go down without a fight. A number of states are now requiring the teaching of cursive in schools, a revival encouraged by educators, researchers, parents, and politicians. 3 . While typing and digital files have been great in preventing a tide of paper waste, when used properly, writing things by hand has the benefit that we should not ignore. A report in Psychology Today describes the importance to brain development of learning cursive, during the course of which “the brain develops functional specialization that integrates both sensation, movement control, and thinking”. Brain imaging shows how engaged the brain is while learning cursive: “To write clear cursive, fine motor control is needed over the fingers. You have to pay attention and think about what and how you are doing it. 4 . Brain imaging studies show that cursive activates areas of the brain that do not participate in keyboarding.” 5 . But some traditional skills are too lovely to lose, especially when they come with so many benefits that don’t require an office full of electronics to receive. A．You have to practice B．And it’s a good thing C．Maybe I’m just old- fashioned D．This actually calms that person down and retrains the brain E．we run the risk of losing sight of what we think and write F．I loved it when my daughters started learning cursive in school G．my inner self longs for the simple pleasures of a 19th- century life 【答案】1．G 2．F 3．B 4．A 5．C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了手写草书的现状和好处。 1．上文“While I admit my love for the convenience of modernity,(虽然我承认我喜欢现代的便利性)”以及下文“I daydream of sitting in the writing letters to a sister, pages filled with script and the sound of an ink- dipped metal nib (钢笔尖) scratching along the paper.(我幻想着坐在那里给姐姐写信，书页上写满了文字，还有蘸着墨水的钢笔尖在纸上划过的声音)”说明虽然作者承认现代的便利性，但作者仍然渴望书写的快乐，G项“我内心渴望19世纪生活的简单快乐”与上文形成转折关系，并引出下文，符合题意。故选G。 2．下文“And I was surprised to hear from parents at other schools that their children weren’t learning how to write in script.(我很惊讶地从其他学校的家长那里听说，他们的孩子没有学习草书)”说明作者对于其他孩子没有学习草书感到惊讶，F项“我喜欢女儿们在学校开始学习草书”说明作者对于自己女儿学习草书的态度，并与下文形成对比关系，符合题意。故选F。 3．上文“A number of states are now requiring the teaching of cursive in schools, a revival encouraged by educators, researchers, parents, and politicians.(许多州现在要求在学校教授草书，这是教育工作者、研究人员、家长和政治家鼓励的复兴)”说明现在的情况是许多州都要求学校教授草书，以及下文“While typing and digital files have been great in preventing a tide of paper waste, when used properly, writing things by hand has the benefit that we should not ignore.(虽然打字和数字文件在防止纸张浪费方面发挥了巨大作用，但如果使用得当，手写的好处不容忽视)”说明手写具有不容忽略的好处，B项中it指代上文提及的情况，B项“这是一件好事”承接上文，说明学校教授草书是一件好书，下文解释原因，B项符合题意。故选B。 4．上文“Brain imaging shows how engaged the brain is while learning cursive: “To write clear cursive, fine motor control is needed over the fingers. You have to pay attention and think about what and how you are doing it.(脑成像显示了学习草书时大脑的参与程度：“要写出清晰的草书，需要对手指进行精细运动控制。你必须注意并思考你在做什么以及如何做)”说明要写出清晰的草书，需要控制手指并且注意和思考自己在做什么和应该如何做，A项“你必须练习”与上文句式一致，承接上文，说明要写出清晰的草书，你必须练习。故选A。 5．下文“But some traditional skills are too lovely to lose, especially when they come with so many benefits that don’t require an office full of electronics to receive.(但有些传统技能太可爱了，不能失去，尤其是当它们带来了如此多的好处，而不需要一个满是电子产品的办公室来接收时)”说明传统的技能可以带来很多好处，C项“也许我只是过时了”引出下文内容，与下文形成转折关系，符合题意。故选C。 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 备战2025年高考英语名校模拟真题速递(新高考八省专用) 第二期 专题03 七选五12篇 （24-25高三上·青海西宁·开学考试）Benefits of Exploring New Places Discovering unfamiliar places can often be frightening, but it’s also an adventure that offers many benefits.

She’d walk to a school, change into a loose T-shirt and trousers and practise breaking — a street dance style. This routine lasted for a year until she participated in competitions and showed videos to her parents. “ 2 Seeing my skills, they realised that I was serious about my career choice,” says Singh, 23, whose stage name is B-Girl Flow Raw. Last year, she represented India at Queen 16, a breaking festival in Germany with participants from Spain, Russia and Korea. In India, many women shy away from breaking, says Singh. Every move — from simple movements to backflips — is physically demanding.” 3 Both boys and girls look awkward when dancing, but it’s usually the girls who feel more out of place. This builds up the pressure and they give it up, so only a minority of young girls practice the dance,“ adds Johanna Rodrigues, also known as B-Girl Jo, 23. For the B-Girls, breaking is not just about competing but a journey of self-expression and self- exploration. They all think that it is rewarding.

There are some answers to this question, which might surprise you. While tail chasing can be a harmless behavior, sometimes it can indicate a potential issue requiring a vet visit. Below are some common meanings behind your dog chasing its tail. 1 It might look like a strange activity to humans, but tail- chasing is a simple way for dogs to let loose and have a little fun. 2 Just keep in mind that a constantly bored or stressed dog might be feeling left out, so make sure its basic needs are being met, including exercise and socialization. Your dog is feeling stressed. On the other hand, uncontrollable tail- chasing behavior could be a warning sign that your dog is anxious or stressed. 3 By the way, this fruitless and frustrating behavior is what led to the saying “like a dog chasing its tail”. Your dog wants your attention. Tail- chasing is actually a go- to behavior for young dogs who are playing and learning about their bodies. And it’s hard not to smile when you see this happening, especially in puppies, because it’s funny and adorable. But this type of response can cause your pup to keep doing it. Try not to encourage this behavior. 4 Your dog may have intestinal parasites (肠道寄生虫). This is another common reason why dogs chase their tails. It’s also a reason why dogs chew their tails, too. Infections are generally common in young dogs and can even be deadly in some puppies if left untreated. 5 If your dog is chasing their tail a lot, it’s best to rule out any medical issues first, so always get in touch with your vet who will be able to examine them and find the root of the problem. A．Your dog wants exercise. B．Your dog is expressing its emotion. C．Your pup will form the habit of tail chasing. D．Instead, provide a distraction by giving your dog a new toy or going on a walk.

Some prefer running right away in the morning, while others enjoy a late afternoon workout. 1 While there’s evidence that late afternoon is the optimum (最佳的) time for a workout, other times also bring benefits. No matter what, the best time to exercise is the time that works best for you. According to research, you’ll get optimum results when your body temperature is at its highest. For most people, that’s between 4 p. m. and 5 p. m., though some studies extend this time to 7 p. m. 2 Exercisers tend to perform better on physical performance tests measuring aerobic capacity and reaction time. In the morning, your body temperature is at the lowest point of the day. This indicates the morning isn’t the best time to exercise. However, running in the morning may help keep you motivated. Additionally, early morning is the coolest part of the day during warmer months. 3 When it comes to choosing the right time for workouts, adapt your routine to fit your lifestyle. Letting your exercise routine naturally fit into your schedule can relieve the stress of finding time to work out. 4 While you may not feel normally like working out during the time when you are available, it’s possible to adjust your biological clock to your schedule. 5 For instance, if you are training for a marathon, running in the morning can prepare you for the event because most marathons begin in the morning. Whatever sport you participate in, training during those times will help your body perform better on the game day. A．This will help you stick to it. B．You need to get an adequate amount of sleep. C．It is within these few hours that strength and endurance peak. D．Is there any advantage of exercising at any specific time of day? E．You’ll be safer and more comfortable if you run when it’s not hot. F．Your exercise time should agree with the sport you’re training for. G．This is a topic of much debate among athletes and exercise experts. （24-25高三上·山西长治·阶段练习）It is never fun to listen to criticism. If it is constructive, then you can use it to become a more well-rounded person. If it’s only meant to harm you, then you can work on shaking it off like a bad habit. How to deal with criticism wisely? 1 Accept that you’re not perfect. This is a great way to deal with criticism. To be able to take a little bit of feedback (反馈), you can’t keep thinking that you can do no wrong. Nobody’s perfect, so if you think you’re perfect, then you’re nobody. Every person has disadvantages. 42 See if there’s some truth to it. If the feedback is coming from a person who has your best interest in mind, then you have to consider the possibility that there really is some truth to those words. 3 If ten people say that you are selfish, then they can’t all be wrong, can they? Take a moment to consider the possibility that this person is really on to something. 4 If you have received some criticism delivered in a friendly and helpful way, or just in a way meant to be honest and clear, just take the time to thank the person and to say that you appreciate the fact that the person told you something that can make you an even better friend, student, or professional. Stop making excuses. If someone is giving you reasonable criticism, stop making excuses. If you get defensive and make excuses, then the person won’t be able to finish telling you exactly what he or she means, and you won’t get the information you need to really improve. It’s natural that we feel defensive and get the feeling that we can do no wrong. 5 A．Thank the person for being honest. B．The following tips can be helpful to you. C．Work on being less sensitive. D．If you don’t see any of yours, you’re not analyzing yourself as closely as you should. E．It’s even more likely if you’ve heard similar comments before. F．Most people are able to deal with criticism properly. G．But it’s important to hear people out before you cut them off to prove you’re perfect. （24-25高三上·山西晋城·阶段练习）I am often struck by the thought that there is this huge life enhancing potential available to everyone on the planet that maybe we don’t always take great advantage of. 1 Through it, we help ourselves and others by sharing the things we have learned. 2 I have been teaching and preaching from the time when it occurred to me that I had some really great stuff to share. But, strangely, it took me a long time to really identify what it was that I was doing, at least enough to put it into words. So, I’d like to share with you my thoughts on why teaching and sharing your knowledge can be so important to you as well as to the people around you. 3 See whether it profoundly enhanced so many parts of your life, even in the areas you’re already super successful in. Here is what makes teaching so great for the person doing the teaching. Any goal, habit, human quality, or desire that you start preaching, teaching, or pontificating about will automatically, and almost without effort, push you to do more of it yourself. 4 It pushes you to do what you are encouraging and teaching others to do. I am totally convinced this will, and does, work that way for everyone. What knowledge do you have, or have you learned that you want to be reminded and pushed to improve in your life? If you want to do better at it, there will be plenty of others that will want to do better at it too. 5 A．It’s our ability to teach other people. B．We just need to talk and teach others about it. C．Doing this has been changing and helping my life for years now. D．Please, think deeply about this and then put it into practice in any way you can. E．Be sure to write down your goals and objectives as well so you can stay on track. F．The knowledge you share, whether spoken or written, is like a truth drug for the mind. G．So, why not teach and share what you know and help yourself do better and better at these things? （24-25高三上·陕西西安·阶段练习）When faced with a glass half full of water, some people perceive it to be half full, while others view it as half empty. Apparently, some people are just happier than others. You can change your set range to increase your level of happiness, though. Go with the “flow” 1 . When you’re so fully engaged in what you’re doing that you don’t notice the passage of time, you are in a state called “flow”, which is associated with joy. In your daily life, try to increase the number of “flow” experiences in which you lose yourself. 2 Take a moment to do nice things for others throughout your day. Treating other people well brings on positive results. It makes you feel generous and capable and leads you to feel grateful for your own situation. It also gives joy to other people and leads them to like you more and repay in your times of need. 3 . Express gratitude Counting your blessings is a great way to review the positive things in your life. One way to do this is by taking time during the week to consider three or five things for which you are currently grateful. 4 . You can do it when you're going to sleep at night or during your commute (上下班路程) . Another idea is to call or write a note of appreciation to an important person in your life. Celebrate good news Sharing successes and accomplishments with others has been linked to elevated joy and well-being. When your cousin or best friend wins an honor, congratulate them and celebrate it. 5 . Taking pleasure in and passing on good news leads you to enjoy the present moment, as well as to promote connections with others. A．Practice random acts of kindness B．Become absorbed in what you do C．This can be done through thinking D．They are challenging and absorbing E．Try to enjoy the occasion to the fullest F．That, in turn, helps develop your own self-worth G．It gives you a sense of being disconnected with the world （24-25高三上·河南·阶段练习）While I admit my love for the convenience of modernity, 1 . I daydream of sitting in the writing letters to a sister, pages filled with script and the sound of an ink- dipped metal nib (钢笔尖) scratching along the paper. 2 . And I was surprised to hear from parents at other schools that their children weren’t learning how to write in script. And indeed, in 2010, the Common Core standards stopped requiring the teaching of cursive (草书) in public schools. But it appears the tide is turning, and the curlicued (花体的) linked letters — and block printing, too, my personal print of choice — will not go down without a fight. A number of states are now requiring the teaching of cursive in schools, a revival encouraged by educators, researchers, parents, and politicians. 3 . While typing and digital files have been great in preventing a tide of paper waste, when used properly, writing things by hand has the benefit that we should not ignore. A report in Psychology Today describes the importance to brain development of learning cursive, during the course of which “the brain develops functional specialization that integrates both sensation, movement control, and thinking”. Brain imaging shows how engaged the brain is while learning cursive: “To write clear cursive, fine motor control is needed over the fingers. You have to pay attention and think about what and how you are doing it. 4 . Brain imaging studies show that cursive activates areas of the brain that do not participate in keyboarding.” 5 . But some traditional skills are too lovely to lose, especially when they come with so many benefits that don’t require an office full of electronics to receive. A．You have to practice B．And it’s a good thing C．Maybe I’m just old- fashioned D．This actually calms that person down and retrains the brain E．we run the risk of losing sight of what we think and write F．I loved it when my daughters started learning cursive in school G．my inner self longs for the simple pleasures of a 19th- century life 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
