专题06 阅读理解七选五 （一） （23-24高二上·浙江杭州·期末）Dispose of Your Credit Card Without Burying It Disposing of unwanted items in our lives often means simply throwing them into the garbage or recycling bin — or, if they’re still useful, giving them away. It’s different with old credit cards, which should be destroyed so nobody can use them fraudulently (欺诈地). 1 Here’s how to get rid of an old card. First, contact the issuer If closing the account is your goal, you’ll have to call the number on the back of your card and ask to do so. If your card is a rewards card, remember to first redeem points or cash back. Change any automatic payments to a different card, and be sure to pay the final card bill. Cut up plastic cards Sharp scissors and smart trimming will do the job here. “We recommend that consumers cut through the EMV chip, then further cut the card a few times along the short side, and dispose of the sections in more than one trash bag,” says Sarah Grano, a spokeswoman for the American Bankers Association. 2 Send back metal cards 3 Contact your issuer. Typically, you can mail it back for disposal. “For example, when American Express sends a replacement card, it also sends an addressed return envelope to mail back an old metal card for destruction,” says Heather Norton, spokeswoman for American Express. Check back on your account Don’t obsess about identity theft of an old credit card. You generally won’t be responsible for fraudulent charges anyway. 4 It’s a good idea to check your account statement to make sure there’s been no fraud. Closing an account can hurt you Closing a credit card account can lower your credit rating. That’s because credit scores consider your “credit utilization ratio’”, or how much of your available credit you’re using. And when you close an account, you have less available credit. 5 Closing an old card decreases the average age of your accounts. A．It could be worth closing the account anyway. B．Scores also consider the length of time you’ve had the card open. C．Or feed cards into a machine designed to handle them. D．Take care with debit cards and other plastic where fraud means you might be missing money. E．But how to destroy a payment card properly is not obvious, especially with new metal credit cards. F．Destroying a metal card by yourself is harder and potentially dangerous. G．Skip this step if you’re simply replacing an expired card or one that has been compromised. 【答案】1．E 2．C 3．F 4．D 5．B 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一些方法帮助我们更好地处理旧的信用卡。 1．根据空前“It’s different with old credit cards, which should be destroyed so nobody can use them fraudulently (欺诈地).(旧信用卡则不同，旧信用卡应该销毁，这样就没有人可以欺诈性地使用它们。)”可知，旧的信用卡不能像处理普通垃圾那样直接扔了或者送人。选项E“But how to destroy a payment card properly is not obvious, especially with new metal credit cards.(但是如何妥善销毁支付卡并不明显，特别是对于新的金属信用卡。)”是上文内容的自然延续，指的是销毁旧的信用卡与销毁垃圾是不同的。同时引出下文“Here’s how to get rid of an old card.

People high in hope are optimistic about their future and believe in possibilities. They see challenges as opportunities to grow and learn, rather than as obstacles. 11 Here are tips on how to cultivate hope. Set and achieve goals. Without a clear goal, it’s easy to get distracted and lose focus. Hopeful people usually visualize their goals and create conditions that set them up for success. 12 Getting three emails out in the next 15minutes or preparing lunch in the next 20 minutes are simple examples. Stick with positive people. 13 This doesn’t mean being intolerant of another person’s difficulties, negativity, or struggles, but it does mean that hopeful people tend to spend more time associating with those who share a bright and proactive attitude. They maintain a healthy balance but don’t get overwhelmed by the negativity around them. 14 While believing in oneself is important, highly hopeful people are able to forgive themselves as well. This is a unique combination because this type of confidence allows a person to be imperfect. In addition, they are willing to take reasonable risks and accept failures to support their growth and move forward. Keep a positive outlook. No matter what life throws at them, they endeavor to see the silver lining. They don’t let the circumstance define their emotional response. In addition, high-hope people are also creative problem-solvers. When faced with a challenge, they don’t give up easily. 15 A．Believe in the power of risks. B．Be self-reflective and confident. C．This is key to the success of many high-hope people. D．One way this gets done is through achievable micro-goals. E．Being around positive people contributes to keeping optimistic. F．Therefore, they’re constantly trying to improve themselves and their skill sets. G．Instead, they work out solutions that help them overcome the obstacles in their way. 【答案】11．C 12．D 13．E 14．B 15．G 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了一些培养希望的建议。 11．根据上文“Unique among all the positive emotions, hope requires some degree of conflict, difficulty, negativity, or uncertainty to be ignited. People high in hope are optimistic about their future and believe in possibilities. They see challenges as opportunities to grow and learn, rather than as obstacles.(在所有的积极情绪中，希望是独一无二的，它需要一定程度的冲突、困难、消极或不确定性才能被点燃。满怀希望的人对自己的未来持乐观态度，相信各种可能性。他们认为挑战是成长和学习的机会，而不是障碍)”可知，本句总结上文“他们认为挑战是成长和学习的机会，而不是障碍”这类人成功的关键。故C选项“这是高期望的人成功的关键”符合语境，故选C。 12．根据上文“Set and achieve goals. Without a clear goal, it’s easy to get distracted and lose focus.

This is a unique combination because this type of confidence allows a person to be imperfect. In addition, they are willing to take reasonable risks and accept failures to support their growth and move forward.(虽然相信自己很重要，但充满希望的人也能原谅自己。这是一个独特的组合，因为这种类型的自信允许一个人不完美。此外，他们愿意承担合理的风险，接受失败，以支持他们的成长和前进)”可知，本段提到了接受失败和自信，故B选项“自我反省，自信”符合语境，故选B。 15．根据上文“In addition, high-hope people are also creative problem-solvers. When faced with a challenge, they don’t give up easily.(此外，高期望的人也是创造性的问题解决者。当面对挑战时，他们不会轻易放弃)”可知，本句主要说明高期望的人的如何面对挑战的。故G选项“相反，他们想出解决办法，帮助他们克服前进道路上的障碍”符合语境，故选G。 （四） （23-24高二上·浙江温州·期末）Many people doubt about the effectiveness of body language.

Faking is part of human’s way of life and people seem to be always fascinated with any method that allows them to fake when they need it. Is that wrong? The truth is there is no harm in trying. The aim with body language is to improve the overall quality of the communication and allow you to get what you want. As selfish as this may sound, this is what everybody is after. 17 If you find that a particular technique works for you, go ahead and use it. Myth 2: You can spot a lie through body language.

Living with other people can be difficult, especially when each person comes from a different background and has their own ideas about how they want to live. However, maintaining a warm and friendly relationship with roommates is essential for both personal growth and academic success. 31 ●Make a financial agreement. It is a good idea to get a financial agreement in writing to avoid any issues down the road. 32 Make sure you’re okay with paying half of the bills if your roommates constantly leave the taps on. ● 33 Music, TV, or any other noises should be kept at a low decibel level. Along with study habits, you should discuss how to manage phone conversations and visitors in the room. ●Clean and maintain the house responsibly. We don’t need a dish washing or toilet cleaning schedule clipped on the fridge as long as we behave responsibly. ●Decide what you will share. Make a clear delineation between your stuff and your roommate’s stuff. Decide what contents in the fridge are okay to share and which are off limits. 34 Rules exist for a reason.

Invite with care “You cannot travel with everybody. All your friends are not travel friends,” says Irvin on her popular TikTok account. She suggests picking travel partners who share similar interests, and deciding ahead of time what kind of trip you will be taking—relaxation, partying or adventure. Brainstorm as a group 37 Some people prefer to use familiar spreadsheet such as Microsoft Excel to organise the plan and share it with friends. And creating an Airbnb wish list lets friends suggest accommodation options for the whole group to see. Exchange the captain’s hat Use a classic teacher’s trick to keep everyone engaged and share the planning burden: schedule a group leader to take ownership of each day’s activities. 38 By making everyone the driver, everyone also gets the chance at some point to sit back and be a passenger. 39 Tracking expenses for a whole group can expose a lot of pain points. “I have seen so many friendships break down because dissatisfaction builds when one person suspects other friends are taking advantage of her financially or not pulling their weight,” says friendship coach Jackson. 40 Jackson says he liked Splitwise to help groups manage everyone’s bills, so there’s no confusion about who owes what.

These include VR, AR, MR, XR and the list goes on. Many people confuse augmented reality (AR) with virtual reality (VR) and understandably so. Both AR and VR offer alternate or altered reality experiences and as a result, it is easy for users to be attracted and wonder what is real and what is not. 42 . Both aim to provide an enhanced or enriched experience to users, most commonly used in the gaming scene, but also increasingly used in other areas. However, AR and VR can be quite different in many ways. The main difference lies in the mode of delivery. Simply put, VR “transports” the user to another world, by “replacing” the real world with a virtual substitute most commonly done through helmets or goggles to completely immerse the gamer in a different reality. 43 AR, however, does not change the entire landscape of what users see. 44 . While AR may be less immersive than VR, the success of games which use AR is proof that it can be just as or even more entertaining than VR games. Moreover, since AR does not require the use of goggles or helmets, it is more accessible. VR and AR are both powerful technologies which are still relatively new to many consumers. 45 . They can completely change how we use our electronic devices in the future, but whether one will edge out the other is anyone’s guess. A．VR can be interactive or non-interactive. B．In fact, it adds to reality with digital images. C．In short, at the heart of VR and AR are two very similar technologies. D．However, they have already begun to shake things up in the gaming world. E．It is also getting increasingly difficult to keep up with the “R”s that have come into existence. F．For example, it can make users feel as if they are falling, thereby igniting fear. G．They would see computer made images as an overlay to what they see in real life. 【答案】41．E 42．C 43．F 44．B 45．D 【导语】这是一篇说明文。短文介绍了AR和VR的相同点和不同点。 41．根据上文“In a world where technology is king, hardly does a day go by without the launch of some “world-changing” product in the field of alternate reality.”（在一个技术为王的世界里，几乎每天都有一些“改变世界”的产品在虚拟现实领域发布。）根据下文“These include VR, AR, MR, XR and the list goes on.”（这些包括VR, AR, MR, XR等等）可知，选项承接上文说明跟上科技进步很困难，因为新科技产品不断在出现，并引出下文对一些“R”的列举。故E选项“跟上已经出现的“R”的步伐也变得越来越困难”切题。故选E项。 42．根据下文“Both aim to provide an enhanced or enriched experience to users, most commonly used in the gaming scene, but also increasingly used in other areas.”（两者都旨在为用户提供增强或丰富的体验，最常用于游戏场景，但也越来越多地用于其他领域。）可知，VR 和AR技术很相似。故C选项“简而言之，VR和AR的核心是两种非常相似的技术。”切题。故选C项。 43．根据上文“Simply put, VR “transports” the user to another world, by “replacing” the real world with a virtual substitute most commonly done through helmets or goggles to completely immerse the gamer in a different reality.”（简而言之，VR将用户“传送”到另一个世界，用虚拟的替代品“取代”现实世界，最常见的是通过头盔或护目镜，让玩家完全沉浸在不同的现实中。）可知，选项承接上文具体举例说明。故F选项“例如，它可以让用户感觉自己好像在坠落，从而引发恐惧。”切题。故选F项。 44．根据上文“AR, however, does not change the entire landscape of what users see.”（然而，增强现实并没有改变用户看到的整个景观。）可知，选项承接上文说明实际的情况。故B选项“事实上，它通过数字图像增强了现实”切题。故选B项。 45．根据上文“VR and AR are both powerful technologies which are still relatively new to many consumers.”（VR和AR都是强大的技术，对许多消费者来说仍然相对较新）和下文“They can completely change how we use our electronic devices in the future, but whether one will edge out the other is anyone’s guess.”（它们可以完全改变我们未来使用电子设备的方式，但其中一种是否会取代另一种还不得而知）可知，选项与上文为转折关关系，说明VR和AR的影响。故D选项“然而，他们已经开始撼动游戏世界”切题。故选D项。 （十） （23-24高二上·浙江嘉兴·期末）As humans, we’re meant to be social creatures. In fact, being socially connected is key to our mental and emotional health. 46 This can cause us to cut ourselves off from others and gradually become lonely. Social situations can seem frightening, but the truth is never quite so black-and-white. People aren’t thinking about you—at least not to the degree that you think. 47 Just like you’re thinking about yourself, other people are thinking about themselves. They’re not spending their free time judging you, so stop wasting time worrying about what others think of you. 48 When you’re socially anxious, it can seem as though everyone else is fully confident. But that’s not the case. There are still many shy people out there struggling with the same self-doubts as you are. The next person you speak to is just as likely to be worried about what you think of them! You don’t have to be perfect to be liked. In fact, our imperfections can be pleasant. 49 If you can cheerfully accept your awkwardness and imperfections, you’ll likely find that others will, too. They may even like you better for it! It’s okay to make mistakes. Everyone makes mistakes; it’s part of being human. 50 Your value doesn’t come from being perfect. If you find self-forgiveness difficult, try to look at your own mistakes as you would those of a friend. Overcoming social fear requires practice. Don’t expect to become socially comfortable without putting in the time. That said, you can start small. Take baby steps towards being more confident and social, and then build on those successes. A．So give yourself a break when you mess up. B．Most people are caught up in their own lives. C．The good news is that you can learn from them. D．People are much more confident than you think. E．Even our weaknesses can bring us closer to others. F．Many other people feel just as awkward and nervous as you do. G．Yet many of us are shy and feel awkward around unfamiliar people. 【答案】46．G 47．B 48．F 49．E 50．A 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了几种克服社交焦虑，建立正确社交的方法。 46．上文“In fact, being socially connected is key to our mental and emotional health.(事实上，与社会保持联系是我们心理和情感健康的关键)”说明与社会保持联系很重要，下文“This can cause us to cut ourselves off from others and gradually become lonely.(这会导致我们与他人隔绝，并逐渐变得孤独)”阐述了另外一种结果，G项“然而，我们中的许多人都很害羞，在陌生的人面前感到尴尬”与上文是转折关系，且指出下文中this指代的内容，符合题意。故选G项。 47．下文“Just like you’re thinking about yourself, other people are thinking about themselves.(就像你在思考自己，其他人也在思考自己)”说明每个人都在想自己的事，B项“大多数人都沉浸在自己的生活中”与下文紧密衔接，符合语境。故选B项。 48．下文“When you’re socially anxious, it can seem as though everyone else is fully confident. But that’s not the case. There are still many shy people out there struggling with the same self-doubts as you are.(当你对社交感到焦虑时，似乎其他人都很自信。但事实并非如此。仍然有很多害羞的人和你一样在与自我怀疑作斗争)”说明大家都跟你一样对社交感到焦虑，F项“许多其他人和你一样感到尴尬和紧张”与下文紧密衔接，符合语境。故选F项。 49．上文“You don’t have to be perfect to be liked. In fact, our imperfections can be pleasant. (你不一定要完美才能被人喜欢。事实上，我们的不完美是令人愉快的)”指出正是我们的不完美令人感到愉快，E项“即使是我们的弱点也能拉近我们与他人的距离”与上文紧密衔接，our weaknesses对应上文中our imperfections，符合语境。故选E项。 50．上文“It’s okay to make mistakes. Everyone makes mistakes; it’s part of being human.(犯错误是可以的。每个人都会犯错；这是做人的一部分)”说明每个人都会犯错，犯错误是可以被接受的，A项“所以，当你陷入困境时，让自己休息一下”对你犯错误时提供了解决方案，与上文紧密衔接，符合语境。故选A项。 （十一） （23-24高二上·浙江舟山·期末）How to write a Cover Letter (求职信) Are you tired of your job and in the market for a new one?

So consider starting with these three easy ways to eat a healthier diet. Aim for real food only. 57 Maybe it’s the whole thing (like a frozen dinner), or maybe it’s just part of your meal (like the bottled dressing on your salad). Think of where you can replace processed foods for healthier ones. For example, eat whole-grain pasta instead of enriched white-flour spaghetti. Schedule your meals and snacks. Set times on your phone for three different meals and two snacks (if you need them). 58 This might control your desires, reduce stress about when you’ll eat next, and cut down on the extra calories of unnecessary snacking ——a real challenge if you’re close to a refrigerator all day while at home or work. Reduce your portion (份量) sizes. If you’re like most Americans, you’re eating too much food. An easy way to carry out portion control: load your plate as you normally would, then put back a third or half of the food. 59 You don’t need to include all of these steps at one time; try one step per week. Write down what you’re eating and any thoughts or questions you have about the process. 60 Before long, you’ll have the confidence to attempt new steps. A．Avoid having late-night meals or snacks. B．Don’t eat in between these scheduled times. C．Processed foods are linked with many diseases. D．After a week, assess what worked and what didn’t. E．You can also use a salad plate instead of a dinner plate. F．Look at your plate and note what’s processed and what isn’t. G．But this motivation is often focused on a diet that is too ambitious. 【答案】56．G 57．F 58．B 59．E 60．D 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了更健康的饮食的方法。 56．由上文“While many people might be quitting formal New Year’s decisions this year, others may mark a fresh start by deciding to make up for poor eating habits of the past. (虽然今年许多人可能会放弃正式的新年决定，但其他人可能会决定弥补过去不良的饮食习惯，从而标志着一个新的开始。)”可知，本空与上文为转折关系，说明动机的集中点是什么，故G选项“But this motivation is often focused on a diet that is too ambitious. (但这种动机往往集中在过于雄心勃勃的饮食上。)”能承接上文，符合题意。故选G。 57．由下文“Maybe it’s the whole thing (like a frozen dinner), or maybe it’s just part of your meal (like the bottled dressing on your salad). Think of where you can replace processed foods for healthier ones. For example, eat whole-grain pasta instead of enriched white-flour spaghetti. (它可能是整个食物（比如冷冻晚餐），也可能只是你食物的一部分（比如沙拉上的瓶装调料）。想想你可以在哪里用更健康的食物代替加工食品。例如，吃全麦意大利面，而不是富含白面粉的意大利面。)”可知，本空要说跟“加工食品”有关的话题，故F选项“Look at your plate and note what’s processed and what isn’t. (看看你的盘子，记下哪些经过加工，哪些没有经过加工。)”能引起下文，符合题意。故选F。 58．由上文“Schedule your meals and snacks.  Set times on your phone for three different meals and two snacks (if you need them).

(你也可以用沙拉盘代替餐盘。)”能承接上文，符合题意。故选E。 60．由上文“You don’t need to include all of these steps at one time;   try one step per week.   Write down what you’re eating and any thoughts or questions you have about the process.

Pick the right time to approach the subject. Usually, family dinner time is a safe bet. It is not a good idea to ask for something when either parent seems stressed, distracted, or tired. 62   Especially not if they’re upset at you. Maintain a calm tone during the talk. Asking for something can be an emotional experience: you might feel passionate about the thing you’re asking for, and you might feel angry or frustrated if your parents say no. 63   Studies show negotiation is more successful if it’s done peacefully and rationally. Be patient and give them time to think about it. 64   Tell them to get back to you in a couple hours or days with any questions or concerns they have. Let them know that you want to discuss this as mature, responsible adults and you are willing to work through any potential issues. Say it like that, and you’ll be sure to impress them with how well-rounded and balanced your argument is. 65   Before you go to your parents to ask for that new puppy, make sure you know exactly what adopting a pet requires. Having a good understanding of what you’ll be asking your parents about will help you present your case successfully; by knowing your topic inside and out, you’ll have confident answers for their (many, many) questions. A．Understand your parents’ current feelings about your requirement. B．Do background research on the thing you want. C．You’d better never force them to give you an answer right away. D．You should try to keep your head all the way. E．You won’t always be able to persuade your parents to see things your way. F．It’s good to discuss with your parents about what you need at that time. G．Don’t bring it up when they’re not in a good mood. 【答案】61．E 62．G 63．D 64．C 65．B 【导语】这是一篇说明文，文章主要介绍了帮助说服父母同意自己想要的东西的几个方法。 61．根据下文“However, there are a lot of simple things you can do to help you convince your parents to give you what you want!(然而，你可以做很多简单的事情来帮助你说服你的父母给你想要的)”可知，空处与下文是转折关系，是描述无法说服父母的情况，E项“你不可能总能说服你的父母站在你的角度看问题”符合语境，故选E。 62．根据本段主题句“Pick the right time to approach the subject.(选择合适的时间接近主题)”以及空前“It is not a good idea to ask for something when either parent seems stressed, distracted, or tired.(当父母一方看起来有压力、心烦意乱或疲惫时，向父母要东西并不是一个好主意)”可知，本段是说向父母提要求的合适时机，G项“不要在他们心情不好的时候提起这件事”符合语境，故选G。 63．根据本段主题句“Maintain a calm tone during the talk.(在谈话中保持冷静的语气)”以及下文“Studies show negotiation is more successful if it’s done peacefully and rationally.(研究表明，和平理性的谈判更容易成功)”可知，本段是说要保持冷静，D项“你应该一直保持头脑清醒”符合语境，故选D。 64．根据本段主题句“Be patient and give them time to think about it.(要有耐心，给他们时间去思考)”以及下文“Tell them to get back to you in a couple hours or days with any questions or concerns they have.(告诉他们如果有任何问题或担心，几个小时或几天后再来找你)”可知，本段是说要给父母时间思考，C项“你最好不要强迫他们马上给你答复”与本段语义一致，故选C。 65．根据下文“Before you go to your parents to ask for that new puppy, make sure you know exactly what adopting a pet requires.(在你去找父母要一只新的小狗之前，确保你确切地知道收养宠物需要什么)”可知，本段是说在向父母提要求前做好背景调查，B项“对你想要的东西做背景调查”适合作为主题句，故选B。 （十四） （23-24高二上·浙江绍兴·期末）Some people say that A．I. large language models can be unpredictable and unreliable — giving false information and acting strangely toward users. I’ve been using A．I. tools like ChatGPT almost daily for several months now, and I’ve seen them spit out plenty of wrong answers. 66 Here are three things that A．I. is especially good at. Getting creatively unstuck A．I. can also be a good tool for getting your creative juices flowing. Recently, I was trying to come up with questions to ask a podcast guest. I pasted the guest’s bio into ChatGPT and asked it to give me “10 thoughtful, incisive interview questions” for this person. 67 Ethan Mollick, a professor at the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton School, recommends using A．I. to overcome writer’s block, or get a running start on hard projects. 68 I’ve also been using ChatGPT and other A．I. apps as a kind of rehearsal for offline tasks I find unpleasant or hard. When I had to have a difficult conversation with a friend, I asked ChatGPT to take part in a role-playing exercise. “Pretend you’re my friend, and react the way you think my friend might react,” I told it. 69 It didn’t make the real one painless, but I felt more confident knowing I’d already practised with a chatbot.

They’re situations that only distract us from what’s truly important, and from the things that enrich us. Let’s learn to identify them and avoid them. Arguments about insignificant issues A debate is a great opportunity to present your own points of view and learn from other’s opinions. However, something very different happens when two people get into a pointless argument. 72 Gossip 73 . This sort of curiosity is no more than a sign of a lack of identity. Whoever gossips about others looks for themselves in other people. The thing is, they just can’t find themselves. Worrying over and over again One of the situations that drain our emotional energy is unstoppable doubt. This is when we think and think but only come up with “ifs” and “buts”. We try to find the right answer or make the right decision just by reflection. 74 Need for approval We’re constantly trying to get other people’s approval. 75 Instead of investing time to explore who we are, whether others like us or not, we just spend our time doing things that other people want us to do. Generally, people either accept you or they don’t, and sometimes for reasons that are completely beyond your control. A．We spend so much time worrying about things that it blurs our vision of life. B．The only purpose of it is to “beat the other person”, and express their own points of view. C．By doing this we’re just cheating ourselves. D．Vitality is the strength that we have before tiredness sets in. E．We go on and on about the same problem, without actually doing anything to solve it. F．Sticking our noses into other’s private lives, instead of our own, drains our emotional energy. G．However, we forget that many answers come only when we combine thought and action. 【答案】71．D 72．B 73．F 74．G 75．C 【导语】本文为一篇说明文，介绍了如何识别并避免消耗我们情感能量的情况，包括无意义的争论、说闲话、反复忧虑和渴望得到认可等。 71．空前“Emotional energy is a relatively new term to describe our vitality(活力).(情感能量是一个相对较新的术语，用来描述我们的活力)”提到情感能量和活力的关系，D选项“活力是我们在疲劳到来之前所拥有的力量”承接上文，进一步补充什么是“活力”，且与下文中的vitality呼应。故选D。 72．上文“A debate is a great opportunity to present your own points of view and learn from other’s opinions. However, something very different happens when two people get into a pointless argument.(辩论是一个很好的机会来展示自己的观点，并从别人的观点中学习。然而，当两个人陷入一场毫无意义的争论时，事情就完全不同了)”表示当辩论变成争论，情况就不一样了，B选项“它的唯一目的是“击败对方”，并表达自己的观点”承接上文，说明争论只是为了获胜，不像辩论，还可以从别人的观点中学习，句中代词it指代上文a pointless argument。故选B。 73．根据“Gossip(说闲话)”可知，本段说明闲话的影响，F选项“干涉别人的私人生活，而不是自己的，会耗尽我们的情感能量”表明说闲话会耗尽我们的情感能量，与本段主题一致，句中Sticking our noses into other’s private lives与标题Gossip照应。故选F。 74．空前“We try to find the right answer or make the right decision just by reflection.(我们试图通过反思来找到正确的答案或做出正确的决定)”指出我们试图通过思考来找到答案，G选项“然而，我们忘记了许多答案只有当我们把思想和行动结合起来时才会出现”与上文构成转折关系，说明思考要与行动相结合才能找到答案，句中answers与上一句the right answer相照应。故选G。 75．空前“We’re constantly trying to get other people’s approval.(我们总是试图得到别人的认可)”表示试图得到别人的认可是我们一直在做的事情，C选项“这样做，我们只是在欺骗自己”指出这样做的问题，句中的this指代上文中to get other people’s approval，且下文“Generally, people either accept you or they don’t, and sometimes for reasons that are completely beyond your control.(一般来说，人们要么接受你，要么不接受你，有时是因为你完全无法控制的原因)”对C项做出解释，说明别人的认可是无法掌控的，因此，这种做法是自欺欺人。故选C。 试卷第1页，共3页 原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！1 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 专题06 阅读理解七选五 （一） （23-24高二上·浙江杭州·期末）Dispose of Your Credit Card Without Burying It Disposing of unwanted items in our lives often means simply throwing them into the garbage or recycling bin — or, if they’re still useful, giving them away. It’s different with old credit cards, which should be destroyed so nobody can use them fraudulently (欺诈地). 1 Here’s how to get rid of an old card. First, contact the issuer If closing the account is your goal, you’ll have to call the number on the back of your card and ask to do so. If your card is a rewards card, remember to first redeem points or cash back. Change any automatic payments to a different card, and be sure to pay the final card bill. Cut up plastic cards Sharp scissors and smart trimming will do the job here. “We recommend that consumers cut through the EMV chip, then further cut the card a few times along the short side, and dispose of the sections in more than one trash bag,” says Sarah Grano, a spokeswoman for the American Bankers Association. 2 Send back metal cards 3 Contact your issuer. Typically, you can mail it back for disposal. “For example, when American Express sends a replacement card, it also sends an addressed return envelope to mail back an old metal card for destruction,” says Heather Norton, spokeswoman for American Express. Check back on your account Don’t obsess about identity theft of an old credit card. You generally won’t be responsible for fraudulent charges anyway. 4 It’s a good idea to check your account statement to make sure there’s been no fraud. Closing an account can hurt you Closing a credit card account can lower your credit rating. That’s because credit scores consider your “credit utilization ratio’”, or how much of your available credit you’re using. And when you close an account, you have less available credit. 5 Closing an old card decreases the average age of your accounts. A．It could be worth closing the account anyway. B．Scores also consider the length of time you’ve had the card open. C．Or feed cards into a machine designed to handle them. D．Take care with debit cards and other plastic where fraud means you might be missing money. E．But how to destroy a payment card properly is not obvious, especially with new metal credit cards. F．Destroying a metal card by yourself is harder and potentially dangerous. G．Skip this step if you’re simply replacing an expired card or one that has been compromised. （二） （23-24高二上·浙江湖州·期末）When you have mountains of homework and studying ahead, getting started can seem like an impossible task. 6 Read on to learn how to stop procrastinating (拖延) on studying, focus even when you’re tired, and get motivated to do your schoolwork!

People high in hope are optimistic about their future and believe in possibilities. They see challenges as opportunities to grow and learn, rather than as obstacles. 11 Here are tips on how to cultivate hope. Set and achieve goals. Without a clear goal, it’s easy to get distracted and lose focus. Hopeful people usually visualize their goals and create conditions that set them up for success. 12 Getting three emails out in the next 15minutes or preparing lunch in the next 20 minutes are simple examples. Stick with positive people. 13 This doesn’t mean being intolerant of another person’s difficulties, negativity, or struggles, but it does mean that hopeful people tend to spend more time associating with those who share a bright and proactive attitude. They maintain a healthy balance but don’t get overwhelmed by the negativity around them. 14 While believing in oneself is important, highly hopeful people are able to forgive themselves as well. This is a unique combination because this type of confidence allows a person to be imperfect. In addition, they are willing to take reasonable risks and accept failures to support their growth and move forward. Keep a positive outlook. No matter what life throws at them, they endeavor to see the silver lining. They don’t let the circumstance define their emotional response. In addition, high-hope people are also creative problem-solvers. When faced with a challenge, they don’t give up easily. 15 A．Believe in the power of risks. B．Be self-reflective and confident. C．This is key to the success of many high-hope people. D．One way this gets done is through achievable micro-goals. E．Being around positive people contributes to keeping optimistic. F．Therefore, they’re constantly trying to improve themselves and their skill sets. G．Instead, they work out solutions that help them overcome the obstacles in their way. （四） （23-24高二上·浙江温州·期末）Many people doubt about the effectiveness of body language. The negative view towards body language is often due to myths(谬论). 16 Myth 1: Faking body language is not OK. Faking is part of human’s way of life and people seem to be always fascinated with any method that allows them to fake when they need it. Is that wrong? The truth is there is no harm in trying. The aim with body language is to improve the overall quality of the communication and allow you to get what you want. As selfish as this may sound, this is what everybody is after. 17 If you find that a particular technique works for you, go ahead and use it. Myth 2: You can spot a lie through body language. Over the years there have been many claims that certain non-verbal signals show that a person is lying. These gestures and non-verbal signals are now well-known, such as touching the nose and covering the mouth. However, some researchers have found that these signals don’t directly show that someone is lying. 18 Pressure doesn’t necessarily mean that the person is lying; it is only a signal among others. Myth 3: 19 For a long time, presentation coaches on body language seem to have been advising people that holding their hands behind them is a sign of power. 20 Therefore, putting hands behind you with an intention to show off your power is a myth.

These “pets” share similar characteristics—they don’t cry, make noise or get sick. Tree hugging has also become a new stress relief for young people. “You may think you are hugging the tree, but in fact, the tree is embracing you,” this is a feeling shared by a netizen.

After watching them, I feel like the stress of the day is relieved and it’s easier to fall asleep.” 25 According to public data, there are currently more than 800 companies in China with names, business scopes, products, services or trademarks containing the term “stress relief”.

Living with other people can be difficult, especially when each person comes from a different background and has their own ideas about how they want to live. However, maintaining a warm and friendly relationship with roommates is essential for both personal growth and academic success. 31 ●Make a financial agreement. It is a good idea to get a financial agreement in writing to avoid any issues down the road. 32 Make sure you’re okay with paying half of the bills if your roommates constantly leave the taps on. ● 33 Music, TV, or any other noises should be kept at a low decibel level. Along with study habits, you should discuss how to manage phone conversations and visitors in the room. ●Clean and maintain the house responsibly. We don’t need a dish washing or toilet cleaning schedule clipped on the fridge as long as we behave responsibly. ●Decide what you will share. Make a clear delineation between your stuff and your roommate’s stuff. Decide what contents in the fridge are okay to share and which are off limits. 34 Rules exist for a reason. The reason is to help people from different walks of life to harmoniously cohabit and call a house a home.

Invite with care “You cannot travel with everybody. All your friends are not travel friends,” says Irvin on her popular TikTok account. She suggests picking travel partners who share similar interests, and deciding ahead of time what kind of trip you will be taking—relaxation, partying or adventure. Brainstorm as a group 37 Some people prefer to use familiar spreadsheet such as Microsoft Excel to organise the plan and share it with friends. And creating an Airbnb wish list lets friends suggest accommodation options for the whole group to see. Exchange the captain’s hat Use a classic teacher’s trick to keep everyone engaged and share the planning burden: schedule a group leader to take ownership of each day’s activities. 38 By making everyone the driver, everyone also gets the chance at some point to sit back and be a passenger. 39 Tracking expenses for a whole group can expose a lot of pain points. “I have seen so many friendships break down because dissatisfaction builds when one person suspects other friends are taking advantage of her financially or not pulling their weight,” says friendship coach Jackson. 40 Jackson says he liked Splitwise to help groups manage everyone’s bills, so there’s no confusion about who owes what.

These include VR, AR, MR, XR and the list goes on. Many people confuse augmented reality (AR) with virtual reality (VR) and understandably so. Both AR and VR offer alternate or altered reality experiences and as a result, it is easy for users to be attracted and wonder what is real and what is not. 42 . Both aim to provide an enhanced or enriched experience to users, most commonly used in the gaming scene, but also increasingly used in other areas. However, AR and VR can be quite different in many ways. The main difference lies in the mode of delivery. Simply put, VR “transports” the user to another world, by “replacing” the real world with a virtual substitute most commonly done through helmets or goggles to completely immerse the gamer in a different reality. 43 AR, however, does not change the entire landscape of what users see. 44 . While AR may be less immersive than VR, the success of games which use AR is proof that it can be just as or even more entertaining than VR games. Moreover, since AR does not require the use of goggles or helmets, it is more accessible. VR and AR are both powerful technologies which are still relatively new to many consumers. 45 . They can completely change how we use our electronic devices in the future, but whether one will edge out the other is anyone’s guess. A．VR can be interactive or non-interactive. B．In fact, it adds to reality with digital images. C．In short, at the heart of VR and AR are two very similar technologies. D．However, they have already begun to shake things up in the gaming world. E．It is also getting increasingly difficult to keep up with the “R”s that have come into existence. F．For example, it can make users feel as if they are falling, thereby igniting fear. G．They would see computer made images as an overlay to what they see in real life. （十） （23-24高二上·浙江嘉兴·期末）As humans, we’re meant to be social creatures. In fact, being socially connected is key to our mental and emotional health. 46 This can cause us to cut ourselves off from others and gradually become lonely. Social situations can seem frightening, but the truth is never quite so black-and-white. People aren’t thinking about you—at least not to the degree that you think. 47 Just like you’re thinking about yourself, other people are thinking about themselves. They’re not spending their free time judging you, so stop wasting time worrying about what others think of you. 48 When you’re socially anxious, it can seem as though everyone else is fully confident. But that’s not the case. There are still many shy people out there struggling with the same self-doubts as you are. The next person you speak to is just as likely to be worried about what you think of them! You don’t have to be perfect to be liked. In fact, our imperfections can be pleasant. 49 If you can cheerfully accept your awkwardness and imperfections, you’ll likely find that others will, too. They may even like you better for it! It’s okay to make mistakes. Everyone makes mistakes; it’s part of being human. 50 Your value doesn’t come from being perfect. If you find self-forgiveness difficult, try to look at your own mistakes as you would those of a friend. Overcoming social fear requires practice. Don’t expect to become socially comfortable without putting in the time. That said, you can start small. Take baby steps towards being more confident and social, and then build on those successes. A．So give yourself a break when you mess up. B．Most people are caught up in their own lives. C．The good news is that you can learn from them. D．People are much more confident than you think. E．Even our weaknesses can bring us closer to others. F．Many other people feel just as awkward and nervous as you do. G．Yet many of us are shy and feel awkward around unfamiliar people. （十一） （23-24高二上·浙江舟山·期末）How to write a Cover Letter (求职信) Are you tired of your job and in the market for a new one? Many people are these days, and that can be a problem for job hunters. 51 A well-designed cover letter is the answer. The cover letter should be no more than one page in length. And it should explain why you are the best candidate for a job. The point of this letter is to help you stand out from the others. 52 . Making a good impression in your cover letter means grabbing the reader’s attention right away. In your first paragraph, quickly introduce yourself and talk about the position you are applying for. 53 This illustrates to employers that you can do your research——a key part of cover letters. 54 Each one should be tailored to the job you are applying for. So, before you start writing, find out some information about the job and the establishment. Then you’ll know what the company values and which skills and experiences your letter should focus on. Following the opening paragraph, you can discuss the relevant experiences in your resume (简历). 55 Talking about your background and skills shouldn’t take more than a couple of paragraphs. From there, you can move to the closing of your letter. It’s important to end on a strong note. In these last lines, you should repeat why you are a great fit. Then follow up with a polite request for an interview. This shows you are excited about the job and keen to it. A．Someone would refer to their education experiences in this part. B．A fine means is to tell why you fit the job and have a strong ending. C．One of the best ways to do that is by making a good first impression. D．You should show why you are interested in the job and the company. E．No matter how many you write, every cover letter should be different. F．How can you get the attention of employers with so much competition? G．You can give in-depth details about why your skills fit the company’s needs. （十二） （23-24高二上·浙江金华·期末）While many people might be quitting formal New Year’s decisions this year, others may mark a fresh start by deciding to make up for poor eating habits of the past. 56 Without a solid plan, you may fail quickly. So consider starting with these three easy ways to eat a healthier diet. Aim for real food only. 57 Maybe it’s the whole thing (like a frozen dinner), or maybe it’s just part of your meal (like the bottled dressing on your salad). Think of where you can replace processed foods for healthier ones. For example, eat whole-grain pasta instead of enriched white-flour spaghetti. Schedule your meals and snacks. Set times on your phone for three different meals and two snacks (if you need them). 58 This might control your desires, reduce stress about when you’ll eat next, and cut down on the extra calories of unnecessary snacking ——a real challenge if you’re close to a refrigerator all day while at home or work. Reduce your portion (份量) sizes. If you’re like most Americans, you’re eating too much food. An easy way to carry out portion control: load your plate as you normally would, then put back a third or half of the food. 59 You don’t need to include all of these steps at one time; try one step per week. Write down what you’re eating and any thoughts or questions you have about the process. 60 Before long, you’ll have the confidence to attempt new steps. A．Avoid having late-night meals or snacks. B．Don’t eat in between these scheduled times. C．Processed foods are linked with many diseases. D．After a week, assess what worked and what didn’t. E．You can also use a salad plate instead of a dinner plate. F．Look at your plate and note what’s processed and what isn’t. G．But this motivation is often focused on a diet that is too ambitious. （十三） （23-24高二上·浙江宁波·期末）There’s nothing more frustrating than a parent saying “no” to something you really want, whether it’s a dog, or a new phone. 61   However, there are a lot of simple things you can do to help you convince your parents to give you what you want! Pick the right time to approach the subject. Usually, family dinner time is a safe bet. It is not a good idea to ask for something when either parent seems stressed, distracted, or tired. 62   Especially not if they’re upset at you. Maintain a calm tone during the talk. Asking for something can be an emotional experience: you might feel passionate about the thing you’re asking for, and you might feel angry or frustrated if your parents say no. 63   Studies show negotiation is more successful if it’s done peacefully and rationally. Be patient and give them time to think about it. 64   Tell them to get back to you in a couple hours or days with any questions or concerns they have. Let them know that you want to discuss this as mature, responsible adults and you are willing to work through any potential issues. Say it like that, and you’ll be sure to impress them with how well-rounded and balanced your argument is. 65   Before you go to your parents to ask for that new puppy, make sure you know exactly what adopting a pet requires. Having a good understanding of what you’ll be asking your parents about will help you present your case successfully; by knowing your topic inside and out, you’ll have confident answers for their (many, many) questions. A．Understand your parents’ current feelings about your requirement. B．Do background research on the thing you want. C．You’d better never force them to give you an answer right away. D．You should try to keep your head all the way. E．You won’t always be able to persuade your parents to see things your way. F．It’s good to discuss with your parents about what you need at that time. G．Don’t bring it up when they’re not in a good mood. （十四） （23-24高二上·浙江绍兴·期末）Some people say that A．I. large language models can be unpredictable and unreliable — giving false information and acting strangely toward users. I’ve been using A．I. tools like ChatGPT almost daily for several months now, and I’ve seen them spit out plenty of wrong answers. 66 Here are three things that A．I. is especially good at. Getting creatively unstuck A．I. can also be a good tool for getting your creative juices flowing. Recently, I was trying to come up with questions to ask a podcast guest. I pasted the guest’s bio into ChatGPT and asked it to give me “10 thoughtful, incisive interview questions” for this person. 67 Ethan Mollick, a professor at the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton School, recommends using A．I. to overcome writer’s block, or get a running start on hard projects. 68 I’ve also been using ChatGPT and other A．I. apps as a kind of rehearsal for offline tasks I find unpleasant or hard. When I had to have a difficult conversation with a friend, I asked ChatGPT to take part in a role-playing exercise. “Pretend you’re my friend, and react the way you think my friend might react,” I told it. 69 It didn’t make the real one painless, but I felt more confident knowing I’d already practised with a chatbot. Of course, A．I. chatbots can’t replace human friendships. But they can be a kind of on-demand sounding board, offering us basic feedback and advice without judgement. Sparking Notes for everything 70 I’ve used A．I. programs to “read” long articles for me, and summarize dense academic papers. Usually they get the key points right, even if some of the details are missing. If you’re bored of reading this article, you could ask ChatGPT to summarize it for you. I promise I won’t be offended. A．Rehearsing for real-world tasks. B．I then held a mock version of the conversation. C．Explaining concepts at multiple difficulty levels. D．Of the questions it generated, most were pretty good. E．Used properly, ChatGPT and other A．I. chatbots can be amazing teaching tools. F．But I’ve also seen these A．I. programs do amazing things that took my breath away. G．One of the most powerful abilities of A．I. language models is quickly summarizing large amounts of text. （十五） （23-24高二上·浙江杭州·期末）Emotional energy is a relatively new term to describe our vitality (活力). 71 If we feel that some situations drain (耗尽) us, then it’s because they take away all our vitality in matters that are insignificant, but ones that do require effort. They’re situations that only distract us from what’s truly important, and from the things that enrich us. Let’s learn to identify them and avoid them. Arguments about insignificant issues A debate is a great opportunity to present your own points of view and learn from other’s opinions. However, something very different happens when two people get into a pointless argument. 72 Gossip 73 . This sort of curiosity is no more than a sign of a lack of identity. Whoever gossips about others looks for themselves in other people. The thing is, they just can’t find themselves. Worrying over and over again One of the situations that drain our emotional energy is unstoppable doubt. This is when we think and think but only come up with “ifs” and “buts”. We try to find the right answer or make the right decision just by reflection. 74 Need for approval We’re constantly trying to get other people’s approval. 75 Instead of investing time to explore who we are, whether others like us or not, we just spend our time doing things that other people want us to do. Generally, people either accept you or they don’t, and sometimes for reasons that are completely beyond your control. A．We spend so much time worrying about things that it blurs our vision of life. B．The only purpose of it is to “beat the other person”, and express their own points of view. C．By doing this we’re just cheating ourselves. D．Vitality is the strength that we have before tiredness sets in. E．We go on and on about the same problem, without actually doing anything to solve it. F．Sticking our noses into other’s private lives, instead of our own, drains our emotional energy. G．However, we forget that many answers come only when we combine thought and action. 试卷第1页，共3页 原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！1 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
