专题03 阅读理解(一)20篇 Passage 01 (22-23高一下·广东揭阳·期中)After bikes and umbrellas are made sharable across China, some companies started to focus on the fitness market, so shared gym rooms have hit the streets in Beijing. Unlike common gyms that provide large, open spaces for many members to share at the same time, the newly built shared gym rooms are small, separate rooms for only a person to use at a time, often set up near living communities. Every four-square-meter room provides a treadmill (跑步机), an air cleaner, a mirror, a television and an air conditioner, and users can let down the curtains (窗帘) for privacy. When exercising, users can listen to music, watch movies and check emails by connecting to the Internet by the screen fixed on the treadmill. But there’s no shower. Similar to using a shared bike, users can locate a shared gym room by a smartphone app, book a room in advance and then need to scan a QR code for use. A refundable deposit (保证金) of 99 yuan is required, and users are charged 1 yuan every 5 minutes. The shared gym rooms are created by Misspao, a Beijing-based technology company founded in July. Within several months since it was founded, the company has already raised over 100 million yuan. However, the idea of the shared fitness experience is not totally nascent. Last December, the company VRUN set up shared treadmills in office and apartment buildings. The sharing economy is still becoming popular in China. According to Yicai Global, confident people are pouring millions into sharing start-ups. In March, the State Information Center published a report which predicts that the total value of China’s sharing economy will see a yearly growth of 40% in the coming years, and it is expected to make a great contribution to the country’s GDP. 1.What makes the shared gym room different from the common one? A.Holding one person at a time. B.Standing in the living communities. C.Offering open spaces. D.Having all advanced equipment. 2.What do people need to do to use the shared gym room? A.Pay 100 yuan first. B.Let down curtains for privacy. C.Take a shower before exercise. D.Book a room ahead of time. 3.What does the underlined word “nascent” in paragraph 5 mean? A.Simple. B.Popular. C.Satisfying. D.New. 4.What is the author’s purpose of writing the text? A.To advertise a technology company. B.To introduce shared gym rooms. C.To support the shared gym rooms. D.To predict the future of shared gym rooms. Passage 02 (24-25高一上·江苏南通·期中)In the small town of Greenfield, located among rolling hills and thick forests, lived a young girl named Lily. She was known throughout the community for her bright smile and determination (决心). Though facing many challenges in her life, Lily never let them beat her. Lily’s story began with a car accident that left her partially paralyzed (瘫痪的). Doctors had warned her family that she might never fully recover, but Lily refused to accept the result. She spent countless hours in recovery, pushing herself beyond her limits every day. Her efforts paid off, and slowly but surely, she regained some ability to move. However, Lily’s journey was far from over. She dreamed of becoming a runner, which seemed impossible given her condition. But Lily was not one to be deterred by challenges. She began training with a local coach, taking exercises to suit her abilities. Her progress was slow, but steady, and soon, she was able to take part in short races. As word of Lily’s achievements spread, she inspired (鼓舞) many in her community. People of all ages were moved by her courage and determination. Lily’s story became a symbol of hope, reminding everyone that no matter how difficult life may seem, there is always a way forward. One particular event that showed Lily’s bravery was the annual Greenfield Marathon. Despite the doubts of many, Lily decided to have a try. She trained harder than ever before, pushing her body to its limits. On the day of the race, the entire town lined the streets, cheering her on. As Lily crossed the finish line, tears of joy streamed down her face. She had not only completed the marathon but had also destroyed the stereotype (刻板印象) that disability was a bar to achievement. Lily’s story is a reminder that true courage is not about being fearless but about facing our fears head-on and getting over them. Her journey has inspired countless individuals to chase their dreams, no matter how challenging they may seem. 5.What can we learn about Lily from the first two paragraphs?

C.It’s important to have a lot of friends to help you succeed. D.Only people who are very strong can overcome big challenges. Passage 03 (24-25高一上·四川成都·期中)Aza Raskin is the co-founder and president of the Earth Species Project (ESP 地球物种计划), a non-profit that uses a form of artificial intelligence(AI)to translate non-human languages. ESP wants to use its machine learning technology to translate and make this important information widely available to the public. Raskin underlined their goal to help protection by explaining, “The end we are working towards is that we can decode(解密)animal communication, discover the non-human language. Along the way and equally important is that we are developing technology that supports biologists and protection now.” ESP believes that understanding languages can help deepen our relationship with animals and allow us to more efficiently protect them. In the past, understanding the communication of animals heavily depends on boring and lengthy observation. From primate calls of alarms to dolphin whistles, scientists have been crazy about the different forms of non-human communication present in these animals. With the development of new technologies, researchers have now begun to understand the huge amounts of data available through machine learning. Elodie Briefer, an associate professor at the University of Copenhagen, has recently helped co-develop a pig grunt analyzing algorithm that helps scientists understand whether the pigs are expressing positive or negative emotions (情绪). However, ESP is dealing with decoding differently, by focusing on all species, not just one. The Earth Species Project believes that there is a possibility that social species communicate with each other, for example, whales and dolphins. Although the Earth Species Project believe that understanding AI machine learning data is only one step to full communication, they are hopeful that one day we will be able to understand the whole systems of communication. 9.What is the final goal of ESP's work? A.Translating animal languages. B.Helping protect animals better. C.Making more money for study. D.Applying AI to communication. 10.How does ESP help researchers understand non-human communication? A.It uses machine learning to provide information. B.It calls for researchers to live with social animals. C.It depends on large numbers of views on animals. D.It compares the past researches with present ones. 11.What is the attitude of ESP towards fully understanding animal languages? A.Unclear. B.Confident. C.Doubtful. D.Curious. 12.What is the text mainly about? A.Scientists are interested in animal communication B.How social animals communicate with each other. C.Researchers call on people timely to protect animals. D.AI technology may help understand animal languages. Passage 04 (24-25高一上·吉林·期中)In a 2012 study, Boaz Keysar, a professor at the University of Chicago in the US, led an experiment on the relationship between foreign languages and people’s way of thinking. In the experiment, people were asked to make a choice: Just take one pound or take a 50 percent chance of winning 2.50 pounds. When given this choice in their native language, most people took the safe choice of only getting one pound. But they were more willing to make the riskier choice when asked in a foreign language, leading to more profits (收益) overall, according to The Guardian. As Keysar put it, “People just hate the chance of losing, but they hate it less in a foreign language.” In another study published this year, Keysar and his team did an experiment in which participants were given a series of related words like “dream”, “snooze”, “bed” and “rest”. Later, when asked which words they remembered hearing, people were more likely to mistakenly remember “sleep”, which was not on the list, in their native language. But it was much less likely to happen if they did the test in a foreign language. As Keysar explained, people have more careful thinking when using a foreign language, leading to more accurate memories. The foreign language may even influence our personality. Silvia Purpuri at the University of Trento, Italy, looked at people’s willingness to face uncertainty and enter strange situations. Being tolerant (宽容的) of uncertainty allows people to have more creative ideas and be more open to new things. It turns out that people naturally score more highly on this trait (特点) when they can speak or use a foreign language because speaking a foreign language requires taking risks. The evidence is clear: By learning a foreign language, you’re not just learning a language—you’re gaining a new state of mind. 13.What does the first experiment suggest? A.People like expressing in a foreign language. B.People are afraid of losing in face of money. C.People make quick choices in their native language. D.People prefer riskier decisions in a foreign language. 14.Which of the following best explains “accurate” underlined in paragraph 3? A.Colorful. B.Simple. C.Usual. D.Exact. 15.Willingness to face uncertainty makes people ________. A.Cool-headed. B.Open-minded. C.Light-hearted. D.Easy-going. 16.What is the main idea of this text? A.Foreign languages change mistaken memories. B.People should learn to face uncertainty. C.Foreign languages influence how people think. D.Personality depends on language learning. Passage 05 (24-25高一上·江苏连云港·期中)Today’s young adults (aged 18 — 34) seem to avoid phone calls altogether, with a quarter admitting they’ve never even answered one. A recent survey shows a clear change in communication styles. Texting plays a leading role, with over 70% of young adults loving it. Voice notes are also very popular, being liked by nearly 40%. It seems linked to a general dislike of unexpected calls; more than half connect them with bad news. Interestingly, this aversion (讨厌) to phone calls isn’t shared by elders. Only 1% of those aged 35 — 54 use more texts than calls. The survey suggests a generational change in communication styles. Phone calls, once a useful tool for connection, are now seemingly dropping in favor of other methods like texting and voice notes. As reported, the young have played a main role in the online messages and text messages. An ordinary explanation for their unwillingness to answer phone calls is the pressure connected with them. More than half of them think there are negative news when receiving unexpected calls. The young generally like planned phone conversations as the primary means of communication. Whatever the case, it’s clear that today, we don’t even imagine communicating without the help of a phone. New technologies, such as social media, would ruin human relationships in the long term. As a matter of fact, this may already be happening. Indeed, we can’t ignore the value of the voice in human relations. Listening to the expression of another person brings us much closer to them. It’s also easier to emotionally connect with others in this way. Text messages are more often misunderstood. When communicating something serious, it’s always better to make a phone call. 17.What causes the change in communication styles? A.The young feel pleasant to answer phone calls. B.All of the young think voice notes are popular. C.Few young people connect them with bad news. D.The young are unwilling to receive unexpected calls. 18.What the function of the numbers listed in paragraph 2? A.To provide evidence. B.To make a comparison. C.To draw a conclusion. D.To explain the reasons. 19.What can we learn about making a phone call from the last paragraph? A.It is easier to respond to. B.It makes us feel far away. C.It brings a closer connection. D.It is more often misunderstood. 20.What is the best title for the text? A.Answer a phone call in no time! B.Put away your phone while talking! C.Can making a phone call be replaced? D.How can we communicate in the future? Passage 06 (24-25高一上·浙江衢州·期中)It was an ordinary day when I got a message from my daughter’s kindergarten about an upcoming school dance performance. At first, I thought, “How wonderful, I can’t wait to see her perform!” But to my dismay, I discovered it wasn’t just the students, parents were expected to join as well. “Oh, my god. I’m short of rhythm, coordination (协调性) and having stage (舞台) fear. How could I take part in it?” That evening my idea was destroyed as my daughter came home excitedly, “Dad, this is going to be fun. We should wear matching pink T-shirts and stand at the front so everyone can see us.” And so, we began with practice in front of the television. My wife had luckily found a past performance on Douyin. At this point, I realised our performance would also end up online and any mistake could finally be turned into a joke. The stress had now been increased. The first at-home practice went as badly as you could imagine. And fast forward to Saturday and it was time for a group practice at school. Given the short notice, I expected the other parents to be struggling as much as me. I was wrong. They moved so well that they would equal to the dancers of Bolshoi Ballet. In the days to come we worked very hard and both our confidence and coordination improved quickly. My daughter moved like a swan (天鹅), while I still moved like an elephant. The day of the big show arrived and my nervousness became less. It turns out that getting nowhere near enough sleep before a big performance is the perfect cure for stage fear. Moreover, my daughter was having the time of her life and that alone powered me through. Reflecting on the past two weeks, I realized this experience had enriched us both. It marked the first time my daughter and I learned something new together. I find myself looking forward to similar events like this in the future. 21.What does the underlined word “dismay” probably mean in paragraph 1? A.Happiness. B.Anger. C.Surprise. D.Excitement. 22.What can we learn about the author? A.He didn’t sleep well before the big performance. B.He practised dancing with his daughter smoothly. C.He was very nervous when the big performance arrived. D.He had stress because he didn’t want to dance with his daughter. 23.What did the author realize after the big performance? A.He could dance as well as his daughter. B.The experience had brought a lot to his family. C.The other parents were struggling as much as him. D.Confidence and coordination are very important in the performance. 24.What is the best title of the passage? A.A Stage Experience: Excitement to Sadness B.A Dance Performance: Fear to Enjoyment C.A Stage Experience: Discovering Joy through Movement D.A Dance Performance: Getting out of Fear through Dance Passage 07 (24-25高一上·江苏常州·期中)Relationships-romantic or not-are full of disappointment and frustration (沮丧). Even the most sincere and loving friends will have differing opinions. Sometimes, our heart broke when our friends arrive. Imagine this: you’ve just painted a picture you consider a great work, but the meaningful smile on your friends’ face upon seeing it tells you that, however highly they praise your painting, it is no masterpiece to them. People have long sought ways to circumvent these frustrations with art or technology. An old Roman tale tells of a man who once made his ideal friend out of stone, which was later brought to life through his prayer and communicated only with him. Similarly, modern young people also refuse undesirable socializing by watching movies and surfing the Internet. Sometimes it seems as if we can’t live with people. Yet, as social beings, we can’t live without them. When I first began having conversations with ChatGPT, I wondered if I had found a new friend. The chatbot seemed able to discuss anything. We had discussion on countless topics, in which it seemed to willingly accept some of my arguments, and its conclusion mirrored my own thoughts in a way that made me think, “Yes, we’re on the same wavelength!” As a friend, ChatGPT has qualities that a human friend could hardly match. It can offer a wealth of knowledge on any subject although sometimes it may repeat misinformation or make minor mistakes. Furthermore, it will never tell you that it is too busy or not in the mood to talk with you. However, if we can not accept the frustrations brought by human friends, there is a great chance that we can’t really know ourselves, and thus we won’t really grow. How do you react when you realize that your painting is actually not a great one? You won’t know unless you show it to someone and get a true and honest answer. When you and a friend want to do different things, will you compromise (妥协) or force your ideas on your friend? ChatGPT won’t give you the responses you expect from a human friend. However enjoyable your discussions with it may be, the relationships you develop with your fellow humans have no equal. 25.What does the example in Paragraph 1 show? A.The possibility of friends lying to you. B.The difference in opinion between friends. C.The difficulty in creating a great artwork. D.The importance of seeking friends’ praise. 26.What does the underlined word “circumvent” in paragraph 2 mean? A.Experience. B.Face. C.Avoid. D.Judge. 27.What makes ChatGPT seem like a good friend? A.It’s knowledgeable and like-minded. B.It never makes a mistake in discussion C.It considers your painting a great work. D.It allows you to know yourself and grow. 28.What does the author want to say according to the text? A.There is no replacement for human friends. B.Humans should avoid all social activities. C.Technology and art are better than friendship. D.ChatGPT is the perfect friend for everyone. Passage 08 (24-25高一上·江苏常州·期中)Once I read about a country where if you go to a house and praise some small things, the owners feel it a must to offer it to you as a gift. I don’t remember the name of the country; the only other place I know of with such a custom is my mother’s home. Knowing Mama, I have always been careful with my praise, but that doesn’t stop her. She can always sense admiration beyond words. “I was just staring at that photo of Mount Hood because I have a similar one in my bedroom.” Mama would nod, “Of course. You were thinking how nice it would be to have a set. If a mother doesn’t understand, who does?” Recently I have been worrying for weeks about a Mother’s Day gift for Mama, as there is always the danger that a gift given to Mama will quickly come back to the giver. If I buy her something wearable, she immediately finds it fits me perfectly. If I give her a plant, she cuts off the top for me to take home and root in a glass of water. If I give her some food, she wants me to stay for lunch and eat it. My wise Papa, long ago stopped trying to shop for her. Instead, on every important occasion he writes a short poem in which he tells of their meeting, wedding, and later marriage life. After nearly 30 years of poems, Papa sometimes worries that his poetic inspiration has dried up, but Mama doesn’t complain. She comes into the room while he is struggling over a gift poem and says, “It doesn’t have to rhyme (押韵) as long as it’s from the heart.” This year, finally, I think I, too, have found a painless gift for Mama. I am going to give her a magazine article, unrhymed but from the heart, in which I wish her “Happy Mother’s Day” and tell her there’s nothing Papa or I could ever buy, find, or make her that would be half good enough anyway. 29.Why does the author mention the country in Paragraph 1? A.To explain a rule. B.To lead in the topic. C.To present a fact. D.To prove his point. 30.Why is the author always careful with her praises? A.She doesn’t like any small things. B.Mama will be too proud of herself. C.She doesn’t want Mama to know real her.D.Mama will give her whatever she praises. 31.What makes it difficult to buy a gift for Mama? A.Mama’s refusal of any gifts. B.Mama’s misunderstanding of givers. C.Mama’s attitude to festivals. D.Mama’s practice of giving back. 32.What does the author imply in the last two paragraphs? A.Mama values sincere love over gift itself. B.Poems and articles are Mama’s favorite gifts C.Papa writes poems as gifts to save money. D.Papa and I could never find a good enough gift for Mama. Passage 09 (24-25高一上·黑龙江哈尔滨·期中)Soon, every seat on an airplane could be a window seat! New concept designs are revealing how travelers will be able to watch the stars above in future airplanes. Aerospace giant Airbus is showing off its vision of next-gen cabins (客舱), which include an all-round view of clouds as you jet through them. The Airspace Cabin Vision 2035+ concept also lets passengers tap on smart interactive windows that show travel time and let you explore your destination city. The French company also says passengers will enjoy a greater choice of meals thanks to new pre-ordering concepts. They believe that, by collecting your meal at the gate, food and packaging waste could be reduced by up to 15 percent. The company explains their ethos is “to reduce emissions (排放) at heart”. “Right now, research shows the cabin can contribute between 10% and 20% to the aircraft’s overall environmental impact during its lifecycle,” Airbus officials write. “Putting a focus on reducing this, Airbus brought together ten airlines and eight technology companies to feed into a vision that rethinks the way the cabin should look and feel, maintaining superior passenger comfort.” Airbus found that one of the biggest measures in the cabin for reducing emissions is lightweight solutions. To achieve this, efforts should be focused on creating lighter “bionic designs” that will help reduce cabin weight by up to 40 percent. “As the world shifts to a more circular (循环的) economy, we are rethinking the materials used inside the cabin so they’re able to be recycled, reused and repaired during their lifecycle. This is also a key part of the 2035+ vision,” Airbus officials explain. “Cabin inside and parts will be developed for current aircraft using new materials and a complete introduction of these will be rolled out with the next generation aircraft.” 33.What can we know about the next-gen cabins from the first two paragraphs? A.They will be made of glasses. B.They will shorten travel time greatly. C.They will reduce food waste to some extent. D.They will provide whatever food passengers want. 34.What does the underlined word “ethos” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A.Advice. B.Film. C.Loss. D.Idea. 35.What can be inferred about the future materials used inside the cabin? A.They are cheaper. B.They are more eco-friendly. C.They are more convenient. D.They are more available. 36.What is the purpose of the passage? A.To advertise some new flights. B.To call on people to live a greener life. C.To introduce new design ideas of a plane. D.To explain how to make planes smarter. Passage 10 (24-25高一上·江苏常州·期中)Heman Bekele has been named TIME’s Kid of the Year for 2024. The 15-year-old has come up with an idea for a soap that could help treat skin cancer, and he is already working with scientists to test his idea. Heman’s family came to the US from Ethiopia when he was four. Heman remembers seeing people there working outside in the sun without proper sun protection, which may well increase the risk of skin cancer. From his parents, he had a deeper understanding of its dangers. Skin cancer can often be cured, but the treatment is extremely expensive for those poor workers. Heman’s natural curiosity led him to experiment with different materials and at the age of 7, he nearly caused a fire with a chemistry set. As he got older, he began to wonder if his curiosity could actually help make a difference. Upon reading about imiquimod, a medicine that can help fight skin cancer in the early stages, he realized it was a good way to make the medicine work through a simple bar of soap. But Heman knew that simply mixing imiquimod with soap wouldn’t work, as it would just wash away. Instead, he thought of creating a soap that contained the medicine inside super tiny “nanoparticles” (纳米颗粒) to make sure it remains on the skin after the soap washed off, allowing imiquimod to take effect. Last year, when he was 14, Heman created a video explaining his idea, and won the 3M Young Scientist Challenge. He is now working with scientists at Johns Hopkins University, running tests to see if the soap helps mice with skin cancer. Heman knows that it will take a long time and a lot of effort to develop his soap, but he’s excited about the work. He also encourages other young people to contribute. “Just keep inventing and thinking of new ways to improve our world and make it a better place,” Heman says. 37.What drove Heman Bekele to create the soap? A.His curiosity about skin cancer. B.His desire to develop a new medicine. C.His family’s history of skin cancer. D.His concern for unprotected workers outdoors. 38.Why does Heman use nanoparticles in his soap? A.To make imiquimod affordable B.To make imiquimod easier to use. C.To help imiquimod stick to the skin. D.To help imiquimod spread faster. 39.Which of the following best describes Heman according to the text? A.Curious and creative. B.Focused and frank. C.Understanding and modest. D.Efficient and generous. 40.What can be the suitable title of the passage? A.Fight against skin cancer. B.Be a gifted teenager. C.Follow a medical career. D.Meet a young scientist. Passage 11 (24-25高一上·江苏南通·期中)Dirty sodas, a mixed drink that combines (联合) your favorite soft drink with add-ins like cream or coffee creamer and sweeteners, started to rise a few years ago but recently gained nationwide attention in the TV shows. Now, people are trying out different combinations and sharing methods online. According to Yelp, users have been looking to get their hands on one with searches for “dirty soda” up 609% compared to September 2023. “What makes this trend (趋势) so exciting is its endless customizability (可定制性),” said Yelp’s trend expert Tara Lewis. “Recently, we’re even seeing new methods that use protein shakes instead of cream. As we head into Sober October, we also see this trend changing into a fun cocktail and expect to continue to see this growth as more people search for non-alcoholic alternatives (非酒精替代品) past Dry January.” As the latest drink craze to hit social media, we asked nutrition experts what they thought about the mixed drink. “There’s nothing wrong with dirty soda itself — it’s just a sweet drink with added sweeteners and creamers. The amount of sugar you’d get from one really depends on whether you’re using diet or regular soda, and sugar-free or creamer,” said Christine Byrne, an expert and owner of Ruby Oak Nutrition. “Dirty soda should be looked at as an occasional treat, the same as cake, soda, sugary coffee drinks and any other high-calorie, low-nutrient food,” she added. As alternatives have been shown in recent studies to be connected with potential negative health effects, dirty soda has also come into question. Dirty soda is very high in calories coming from sugar and possibly saturated fat if the drink contains cream. “We know regularly eating foods high in sugar and saturated fat has something to do with an increased risk for many health conditions like obesity, heart disease, diabetes and several types of cancer,” Byrne said. 41.Why is the figure mentioned in paragraph 1? A.To introduce the trend of dirty sodas. B.To show the importance of dirty sodas. C.To show the popularity of dirty sodas in the whole country. D.To prove the impact of TV on people throughout the whole nation. 42.What makes the mixed drink trend interesting? A.Experts provide ways to live a healthy life. B.TV shows introduce many interesting dirty sodas. C.Dirty sodas can be mixed with non-alcohol alternatives. D.People can make dirty sodas with different materials as they like. 43.What can we infer from Christine Byrne’s statements? A.We should avoid dirty sodas. B.Dirty sodas is unhealthy and harmful. C.Dirty sodas is healthy and full of nutrition. D.We should avoid too much sugar when having dirty sodas. 44.What does the text focus on? A.Dirty drink and its methods. B.Interesting drink and its benefits. C.Dirty sodas and its development. D.The latest drink trend and its health impact. Passage 12 (24-25高一上·广东汕头·期中)A 24-year-old female space commander has become a viral sensation on Chinese social media for her work. Zhou Chengyu was in charge of the rocket connector system--described as a vital role. Social media users have been celebrating her brilliance and referring to her as pride of the country. Her story in particular has drawn the public’s attention given her young age. Being the youngest of the team, Zhou Chengyu was born in 1996 in the province of Guizhou. She is certainly not “old” enough compared with her colleagues, but she is known at work as "Big Sister” as a sign of respect. Once in a 3-km running contest, she actually beat half of her male counterparts. Although work shifts are not uncommon at the Wenchang Spacecraft Launch Site, each shift requires huge courage because of the different background knowledge. However, for Zhou Chengyu, she experienced multiple (多种的) positions in 5 launching tests and now she is the youngest commander at the site. Despite carefulness and high responsibility at work, she is just like her peers in normal life. Eating snacks and shopping are her favorite free-time activities. Her high school teacher remembers her as tough and determined. “She always had a dream of becoming scientist,” said her physics teacher. According to her colleague, Zhou Chengyu was very surprised when she found out she went viral online. She said that she was happy when she saw people online regarding her as the pride of the country, and yet she kept saying that she was “nobody but normal worker at a launch site” and there are a lot more people just like her going unnoticed while doing the hardest job to guarantee a better future for the Chinese space program. She also said that she wished to remain her current status (现状) and continue doing her work with or without the popularity. 45.What makes Zhou Chengyu the pride of the country? A.Her young age. B.Her great courage. C.Her vital role in her work. D.Her responsibility at work. 46.Which of the following words can best describe Zhou Chengyu? A.Learned and anxious. B.Respectable and generous. C.Patient and responsible. D.Modest and determined. 47.Which of the following can replace the underlined words in paragraph 5? A.took pride B.made a contribution C.became very popular D.made an achievement 48.What can be the best title for the text? A.A Young Pride B.A Successful Colleague C.An Extraordinary Dream D.An Outgoing Commander Passage 13 (24-25高一上·浙江·期中)We often hear about schools cutting back on bus routes to save money, yet plenty of communities have their buses stopping almost as often as the mail truck. While the presence of sidewalks (人行道) and the safety of area roads play a role in who gets house-to-house pickup or end-of-the-street pickup, Peter Mannella, director at the New York Association for Pupil Transportation says community culture can play an even larger role in the transportation situation. For example, several years ago, Bethlehem tried spacing out its stops, says Mannella. The parents were unhappy, expressed as much and, within three days, the routes were back to normal. “You can say’ we are going to save $100,000 by not stopping at every house,’ but parents don’ t want their kids walking,” Mannella says. As you’d expect, this is especially true in bad weather. As a student in the 1980s, we walked to our stops. The neighborhood wait-spot was a good quarter mile away. Parents didn’t make a fuss (大惊小怪), and no child was injured. In fact, the walking was good — it woke us up each morning. Not to mention, the sense of community that came with hanging out together each morning waiting for bus No. 23 to roll up and take us all to school. Thing is, a lot has changed since the 1980s. Too many people are texting and driving, making them as dangerous on the roads as drunken drivers. And, with reduced work forces at many companies, parents often work longer hours, meaning they aren’t around to guard their kids to and from stops like many parents did when we were growing up. So I’ll give them an understanding pass on not wanting their children to walk a mile each way to get to and from school. I can’t agree with the complaints of having kids walk to a community neighborhood stop, though. If you worry they’re going to be cold, get them a hat. If you fear they may miss the bus, send them bout the door five minutes earlier. 49.What do we know about Bethlehem’s plan? A.It ended up in failure. B.It lasted for a long time. C.It wasn’t put into practice. D.It saved a lot of money. 50.What can we learn about students in the 1980s from paragraph 3? A.They woke up early in the morning. B.They were driven to school by parents. C.They usually hung out with their neighbors. D.They benefited by walking to a neighborhood stop. 51.Why are today’s parents unwilling to let their children walk to a neighborhood stop? A.Distracted (注意力分散的) drivers cause a danger on the roads. B.The weather conditions are awful in winter. C.Parents place work before family. D.Drunken drivers are dangerous on the roads. 52.What is the author’s attitude towards children walking to bus stops? A.Doubtful. B.Uncaring. C.Supportive. D.Objective. Passage 14 (24-25高一上·云南临沧·期中)Physical education, or gym class, isn’t required for all high school students. In some schools, it isn’t offered for some different reasons. But should high school students have physical education? The answer is certainly “yes”. Today many people don’t do sports. But as is known to all, doing sports is very important for an adult. Teaching teens the importance of a healthy lifestyle and making fitness plans now can help teens put exercise in the first place as an adult. High school isn’t that easy. Many students are under a lot of stress. Stress can be harmful to a student’s studies and life. Doing sports can help them deal with stress better, helping them live a happier life at school. The American Heart Association says that 10 million kids and teens suffer from obesity (肥胖症). Teens should get 60 minutes of physical activity per day to control their weight and to help their bones get stronger. The increase in activities that don’t get teens to move around, such as video games and computer activities, means many teens don’t get their required exercise. Physical education classes act as a public health measure to encourage activities and help teens have healthy weights. Inactivity increases teens’ risk of developing many diseases. An active lifestyle offers a good way of protection from these health problems. As much as 75 percent of health-care spending goes towards treating medical conditions that can be hindered by lifestyle changes, according to the American College of Sports Medicine. According to the President’s Council on Fitness, Sports and Nutrition (PCFSN), students who performed five hours of physical activity each week improved their academic (学业的) performance. Students from programs with no physical activity, who used the extra time for classroom study, did not perform better on tests than those who gave up some study time in support of physical education. 53.According to paragraph 2, what does physical education in high school mean? A.Helping teens learn to make good plans. B.Making teens think much of exercise later. C.Removing the stress faced by teens at school. D.Getting teens to encourage adults to exercise. 54.What does the underlined word “hindered” in paragraph 5 mean? A.Measured. B.Prevented. C.Shown. D.Caused. 55.According to the PCFSN, doing sports ________. A.helps students do better in their studies B.helps students make good use of all their time C.means students adjust to their environment better D.means making students choose between sports and studies 56.What is the text mainly about? A.How high school students can live a better life. B.How schools can help students love doing sports. C.Why physical education can relieve students’ stress. D.Why high school students should receive physical education. Passage 15 (24-25高一上·江苏扬州·期中)How would you survive without your smartphone? For many of us, it’s the device we’re most attracted to — looking at it hundreds of times a day. We depend on it to perform different tasks and to connect with our friends and family. But have we become addicted to our phones? Certainly, the inventor of the first mobile phone, American engineer Martin Cooper, thinks we might be. In a BBC interview, he suggested people should stop scrolling (刷屏) and “get a life”. But of course, once we start scrolling or watching videos, we just can’t kick the habit. Psychologist and author Jean Twenge says, “we’re all guilty of habitually checking our phones if waiting for a text or getting really into social media then kind of, looking up and realizing that an hour has passed.” There’s even a word — a phubber — to describe a person who ignores the real people around them because they are concentrating on their phones. But does it matter if we make the most of this technology? Possibly, because like a drug, the problem arises when it is taken away. A study from King’s College London found young people they studied couldn’t control the amount of time they spent on their phone. Such addictive behavior means that people become anxious or upset when they are refused constant access, which can cause anxiety and mental health issues. Interestingly, another study by the London School of Economics and Political Science suggests we don’t just look at our phones because we are encouraged by a text or e-mail. The people they studied felt natural to interact with their phones, just as a smoker would light a cigarette. Prof, Saadi Lahlou, co-author of the study, told the BBC “We must learn tricks to avoid the temptation (诱惑) when we want to concentrate or have good social relations.” One solution could be an app that rewards students for time spent away from their phones. Another choice is changing your smartphone to an ordinary phone that has none of the distractions (分心事) on it. But mainly, perhaps, we just need to look up more and reconnect with the real world! 57.What did Martin Cooper suggest people do? A.Enjoy life by stopping the habit of scrolling. B.Learn tricks to avoid the temptation. C.Change their smartphones to ordinary phones. D.Use an app that rewards them for less phone use. 58.Why do people feel ashamed after checking their phones? A.For not being productive enough. B.For missing important texts or calls. C.For not being able to connect with others. D.For using their phones for a long time. 59.What does the study from King’s College London imply? A.The young shouldn’t use their phones. B.Curing phone addiction is not an easy job. C.Young people can’t survive without phones D.Using phones leads the young to be anxious. 60.What is the main message of the text? A.Smartphones are essential for modern life. B.People should avoid their addiction to smart phones. C.The inventor of the mobile phone should be punished D.Smartphones have a certain impact on mental health. Passage 16 (24-25高一上·河南郑州·期中)Like most nerds (电脑迷) who read science fiction, I’ve kept wondering how society will greet true artificial intelligence, if and when it arrives. Will we panic? Ignore it and go about our daily lives? Therefore, it’s been fascinating to go online to try to make sense of ChatGPT, a new cutting-edge A.I. chatbot (聊天机器人) opened for testing at the end of 2022. In five days, more than a million people signed up to test it. In recent years, though a few A.I. tools have gotten good at doing narrow and well-defined tasks, like writing marketing copy, they still tend to be weak when taken outside their comfort zones. But ChatGPT feels different. It is smarter and more flexible. It can write jokes and college-level essays. It can also guess at medical diagnoses, and even seems good at answering the types of open-ended analytical questions which frequently appear on school assignments. The technology that powers ChatGPT isn’t, strictly speaking, new. It’s based on what the company calls“GPT-3.5”, an upgraded version of GPT-3 in 2020. While the existence of a highly capable linguistic superbrain might be old news to A.I. researchers, it’s the first time such a powerful tool has been made available to   the general public through a free, easy-to-use web interface. Unlike Google, ChatGPT doesn’t explore the Internet for information on current events, and its knowledge is restricted to things it learned before 2021. Since ChatGPT training data includes billions of examples of human opinion, representing every reasonable view, it’s also, in some sense, moderate by design. Without specific instructions, for example, it’s hard to coax (诱导) a strong opinion out of ChatGPT about political debates. Usually, you’ll get a fair summary of what each side believes. 61.How did the public respond to ChatGPT at first? A.People worried about this new technology. B.Many people found it hard to understand ChatGPT. C.A number of people couldn’t wait to register for a try. D.Millions of people were ignorant of this new A.I. chatbot. 62.What can we learn from paragraph 2? A.Homework might not be a problem for ChatGPT users. B.ChatGPT is a typical A.I. tool used for specified tasks. C.ChatGPT helps doctors with serious medical diagnoses. D.A.I. apps can’t provide perfect answers to analytical questions. 63.In which aspect is ChatGPT different from the GPT-3? A.Linguistic researchers speak highly of it. B.People can use it free of charge. C.It is welcomed by A.I. researchers with enthusiasm. D.It is the first powerful tool open to the general public. 64.What’s the text mainly about? A.The future of ChatGPT. B.The brilliance of ChatGPT. C.The development of ChatGPT. D.The arguments about ChatGPT. Passage 17 (24-25高一上·山东烟台·期中)A grandfather named Paul Hocheder has decided to keep his mind moving with a full college experience at 90 years old. Paul already earned one degree in 1960, when he graduated from the University of Maryland after working seven years. But he decided it would help make him awake and alive if he went back for another round. So he signed up for classes at Maryland’s Carroll Community College. Paul is currently interested in a history major (专业) because he began his first semester with classes that explored the causes of both World Wars, and he took an interest in learning those opinions from generations that never saw the conflicts (冲突). “We talk and share each other’s views, which makes me feel young again,” he said in a video. “Coming to school with all the young people counts for me and I have something to look forward to instead of sitting around and doing nothing.” Paul’s positive attitude towards learning and his new college life was truly encouraging. His granddaughter, Gabby, posted his return to campus on her networking sites. “I thought it would be funny if we took a video of him walking into school for the first time,” she said in a video. “When I woke up the next day, there were 500,000 views.” So Gabby kept posting updates, and people kept watching. The most watched video had over 4 million views. Gabby said she knew her grandfather would be a hit on networking sites because he’s a very funny guy. But more importantly, she’s so proud of him for continuing to learn and explore well into his golden years. Gabby is now finishing her first college degree, and she thanks him for pushing her to be the best version of herself. “You’ve always been an advocate (倡导者) for education,” she told him. “And that has pushed me.” 65.For what purpose did Paul Hocheder go back to college? A.To keep his brain active. B.To become an online star. C.To show the importance of knowledge. D.To set an example to his granddaughter. 66.What can be learned about Paul’s history classes? A.They can improve his memory. B.They’re far from his expectations. C.They connect Paul with the young people. D.They bring arguments between Paul and classmates. 67.What do the numbers in paragraph 4 illustrate? A.Paul performed quite well at school. B.Paul won wide attention from the public. C.Paul encouraged further study of the old. D.Paul made many friends by posting online. 68.What impact does Paul’s decision have on Gabby? A.It causes her to change her major. B.It drives her to seek more recognition. C.It gets her to question traditional education. D.It inspires her to continue progressing in her studies. Passage 18 (24-25高一上·山西阳泉·期中)With the help of new devices on mice, scientists are using light to turn nerve cells (神经细胞) on and off in mice’s brains to explore the animals’ social behavior, a new study shows. The new devices depend on optogenetics (光遗传学), a technique in which researchers use burst of light to stimulate or control the brain nerve cells, often using designed viruses to genetically (基因地) correct cells so they respond to light. Scientists have applied optogenetics to explore neural circuits (神经回路) in mice and other lab animals to come to a conclusion on how they might work in humans. Optogenetic devices often bring light to neurons by fiber-optic cables (光缆), but such things can influence natural behaviors and social interactions. These new fully implantable (可植入的) optogenetic devices can enable more complex research. Specifically, the researchers can adjust each device’s programming during the process of experiment. “So you can target what an animal does in a much more complex way,” says Genia Kozorovitskiy, a researcher at Northwestern University. These devices are battery-free, wirelessly powered by the same high-frequency radio waves used to control the kinds, duration and timing of the light pulses (光脉冲). The devices also allow scientists to control four different neural circuits in an animal simultaneously, thanks to LEDs that give out four colors — blue, green, yellow and red — instead of just one. The widely available wireless technology used in this work, the same now used in contactless payment with credit cards, could allow broad applications across the neuroscience community “without huge specialized hardware”, says Philipp Gutruf at the University of Arizona. “That means that we might see these devices in many labs in the near future, enabling new discoveries.” 69.What’s scientists’ purpose of using optogenetics? A.To control humans’ brain nerve cells. B.To explain humans’ social interactions. C.To figure out how neural circuits may affect humans. D.To correct designed viruses entering human bodies. 70.What does the underlined word “simultaneously” in Paragraph 4 mean? A.Once in a while. B.At the same time. C.By ones and twos. D.On a regular basis. 71.What can we infer from Philipp Gutruf’s words? A.The function of wireless technology. B.The promising future of the devices. C.The old applications of the devices. D.The development of wireless technology. 72.Which can be the best title for the text? A.Scientists Can Kill Mice with New Devices B.Scientists Control Humans’ Social Interactions with Light C.Scientists Control Social Behavior of Mice with New Devices D.Scientists Can Record Human’s Neural Circuits with Light Passage 19 (24-25高一上·浙江衢州·期中)It’s fun to sing in the car. In a recent study, 64% of drivers said listening to music makes the driving experience better. But 54% of people said driving is less fun if they have to listen to music they don’t like. So what happens when passengers have different musical tastes than the driver does and they want to choose what to play? Many people think passengers should get a say because they also have to listen to whatever is playing. But others say the driver’s preference counts most. What do you think? Should the driver choose the car tunes? Yes - it’s an extra advantage of the job. The driver is taking the passengers where they need to go, so they should have the right to choose the tunes. They shouldn’t have to listen to something they don’t like, especially on long trips. Drivers also know what music helps them stay calm and focused, while passengers could choose music that annoys the driver. Safety isn’t a concern because the driver can set a playlist before they head out. And if the rule is that the driver always decides, there’s less chance of disagreement over what to play. No - it’s not fair or safe. The driver should be fully focused on the road, not thinking about what song to listen to next or scrolling through a playlist. Passengers, however, have their hands free, so it’s safe for them to search for and select the music. Besides, it’s not fair that only the person behind the wheel gets to choose what to listen to. Long car trips can be boring, especially for kids. If they get to pick the music they want to hear, they will have more fun and won’t fight as much. To make things better, passengers can take music requests from the driver and others in the car. That way, everyone gets a chance to share the music they love. 73.Why is it considered “an extra advantage” for the driver to choose the music? A.It makes sure of no disagreements during the trip. B.It gives the driver more rights on the car-environment. C.It makes the driver feel more important than the passengers. D.It allows the driver to create a more enjoyable driving experience. 74.What is the author’s attitude towards the choice of music? A.Objective. B.Supportive. C.Doubtful. D.Fearful. 75.What is advised to make choosing music easier in paragraph 3? A.The driver should have the final say. B.Requests from both sides are considered together. C.Only the children in the car should choose the music. D.Passengers give a music playlist to the driver before the trip. 76.How does the author develop the passage? A.By exploring views on car music choice. B.By giving facts about music and driving. C.By sharing stories about driving experiences. D.By using examples to show why music matters. Passage 20 (24-25高一上·湖北孝感·期中)For most football-mad parents, taking their child to a game is something they’ve always dreamed of. But for others, it seems impossible. Glenn Faircloth’s son Freddie, 11, was diagnosed with autism (孤独症) aged three. He dislikes noisy environments but Glenn was determined to try and share his love for football with his son. “We tried going to the football match a couple of times but he didn’t like it. There were obviously a lot of people in a confined space and it can be really noisy, so we ended up leaving before the end. It prevented me from going again as I didn’t want to put him through that experience again,” said Glenn. That was when Glenn found out about Brentford’s sensory (感官) room in west London. The room accommodates up to four families per game and is designed to provide a safe experience for them to watch their beloved Bees. Sally Stephens, Brentford’s Fan and Community Relations Director, said: “The idea behind it is to provide a comfortable and friendly environment for children and adults with sensory processing issues. They get the full game experience with the volume turned down. They can still enjoy everything that’s going on with one of the best views in the stadium.” Brentford sought advice from charities and other organizations when designing the room. It features a sofa and bean bags to allow the audience flexibly (灵活地) to move around, and has a dark pop-up tent in one corner if anyone wants to take some time out. The thick glass blocks out the crowd noise and there is an accessible toilet. Glenn, who documents his son’s progress, added: “Going to a match was stressful before — now he is actually excited about going to a game. It’s a different ball game. It’s amazing being able to take him to the football match and share that experience with him and have that father and son bonding time. He can still attend something he loves even though he’s different.” 77.What’s the challenge for Freddie watching a football game? A.He has no interest in football. B.There are crowded environments. C.He doesn’t have tickets for the games. D.The game schedules are inconvenient. 78.Which feature of the sensory room best meets Freddie’s needs? A.Presence of a professional doctor. B.A space in a dark pop-up tent. C.Soundproof glass to reduce noise. D.Several flexible seating choices. 79.How did Glenn Faircloth describe the influence of the sensory room? A.By giving advice to special children. B.By listing the advantages of the sensory room. C.By showing love between his son and himself. D.By describing the different feelings of Freddie. 80.What’s the best title for the text? A.Going to a football match with his father. B.The strong connection between father and son. C.The popularity of football among autism children. D.A sensory room giving a special boy full experience. 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 学科网(北京)股份有限公司 $$ 专题03 阅读理解(一)20篇 Passage 01 (22-23高一下·广东揭阳·期中)After bikes and umbrellas are made sharable across China, some companies started to focus on the fitness market, so shared gym rooms have hit the streets in Beijing. Unlike common gyms that provide large, open spaces for many members to share at the same time, the newly built shared gym rooms are small, separate rooms for only a person to use at a time, often set up near living communities. Every four-square-meter room provides a treadmill (跑步机), an air cleaner, a mirror, a television and an air conditioner, and users can let down the curtains (窗帘) for privacy. When exercising, users can listen to music, watch movies and check emails by connecting to the Internet by the screen fixed on the treadmill. But there’s no shower. Similar to using a shared bike, users can locate a shared gym room by a smartphone app, book a room in advance and then need to scan a QR code for use. A refundable deposit (保证金) of 99 yuan is required, and users are charged 1 yuan every 5 minutes. The shared gym rooms are created by Misspao, a Beijing-based technology company founded in July. Within several months since it was founded, the company has already raised over 100 million yuan. However, the idea of the shared fitness experience is not totally nascent. Last December, the company VRUN set up shared treadmills in office and apartment buildings. The sharing economy is still becoming popular in China. According to Yicai Global, confident people are pouring millions into sharing start-ups. In March, the State Information Center published a report which predicts that the total value of China’s sharing economy will see a yearly growth of 40% in the coming years, and it is expected to make a great contribution to the country’s GDP. 1.What makes the shared gym room different from the common one? A.Holding one person at a time. B.Standing in the living communities. C.Offering open spaces. D.Having all advanced equipment. 2.What do people need to do to use the shared gym room? A.Pay 100 yuan first. B.Let down curtains for privacy. C.Take a shower before exercise. D.Book a room ahead of time. 3.What does the underlined word “nascent” in paragraph 5 mean? A.Simple. B.Popular. C.Satisfying. D.New. 4.What is the author’s purpose of writing the text? A.To advertise a technology company. B.To introduce shared gym rooms. C.To support the shared gym rooms. D.To predict the future of shared gym rooms. 【答案】1.A 2.D 3.D 4.B 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍的是北京出现的共享健身房的特点、使用方法等信息。 1.细节理解题。根据第二段的句子“Unlike common gyms that provide large, open spaces for many members to share at the same time, the newly built shared gym rooms are small, separate rooms for only a person to use at a time, often set up near living communities.(普通健身房为许多会员同时提供大而开放的空间,而新建的共享健身房是小型的、独立的房间,每次只能供一个人使用,通常建在生活区附近)”可知,共享健身房不同于普通健身房的地方是共享健身房每次只能供一个人使用。故选A项。 2.细节理解题。根据第四段的句子“Similar to using a shared bike, users can locate a shared gym room by a smartphone app, book a room in advance and then need to scan a QR code for use.(与使用共享单车类似,用户可以通过智能手机应用程序找到共享健身房,提前预订房间,然后扫描二维码使用)”可知,人们需要提前预定房间才能使用共享健身房。故选D项。 3.词句猜测题。根据划线单词后面的句子“Last December, the company VRUN set up shared treadmills in office and apartment buildings.(去年12月,VRUN公司在办公楼和公寓楼里设置了共享跑步机)”可知,共享健身体验的概念并不完全是新生事物。由此可知,划线单词nascent的意义为“新兴的,初期的”,与D项中的new意义一致。故选D项。 4.推理判断题。根据第一段“After bikes and umbrellas  are made sharable across China, some companies started to focus on the  fitness market, so shared gym rooms have hit the streets in Beijing.(在自行车和雨伞在中国变得可共享之后,一些公司开始关注健身市场,所以共享健身房在北京的街道上出现了)”及下文内容可知,本文主要介绍的是北京出现的共享健身房的特点、使用方法等信息。由此推知,作者写本文的目的是介绍共享健身房。故选B项。 Passage 02 (24-25高一上·江苏南通·期中)In the small town of Greenfield, located among rolling hills and thick forests, lived a young girl named Lily. She was known throughout the community for her bright smile and determination (决心). Though facing many challenges in her life, Lily never let them beat her. Lily’s story began with a car accident that left her partially paralyzed (瘫痪的). Doctors had warned her family that she might never fully recover, but Lily refused to accept the result. She spent countless hours in recovery, pushing herself beyond her limits every day. Her efforts paid off, and slowly but surely, she regained some ability to move. However, Lily’s journey was far from over. She dreamed of becoming a runner, which seemed impossible given her condition. But Lily was not one to be deterred by challenges. She began training with a local coach, taking exercises to suit her abilities. Her progress was slow, but steady, and soon, she was able to take part in short races. As word of Lily’s achievements spread, she inspired (鼓舞) many in her community. People of all ages were moved by her courage and determination. Lily’s story became a symbol of hope, reminding everyone that no matter how difficult life may seem, there is always a way forward. One particular event that showed Lily’s bravery was the annual Greenfield Marathon. Despite the doubts of many, Lily decided to have a try. She trained harder than ever before, pushing her body to its limits. On the day of the race, the entire town lined the streets, cheering her on. As Lily crossed the finish line, tears of joy streamed down her face. She had not only completed the marathon but had also destroyed the stereotype (刻板印象) that disability was a bar to achievement. Lily’s story is a reminder that true courage is not about being fearless but about facing our fears head-on and getting over them. Her journey has inspired countless individuals to chase their dreams, no matter how challenging they may seem. 5.What can we learn about Lily from the first two paragraphs?

Doctors had warned her family that she might never fully recover, but Lily refused to accept the result. She spent countless hours in recovery, pushing herself beyond her limits every day. Her efforts paid off, and slowly but surely, she regained some ability to move. (Lily的故事始于一场车祸,那场车祸导致她部分瘫痪。医生曾警告她的家人,她可能永远无法完全康复,但Lily拒绝接受这样的结果。她花费了无数个小时进行康复训练,每天都超越自己的极限。她的努力得到了回报,虽然进展缓慢但确定无疑,她逐渐恢复了部分行动能力。)”可知,Lily在部分瘫痪后经历了很多痛苦但从未放弃希望,通过努力和训练逐渐恢复行动能力。故选D。 6.词句猜测题。根据划线单词所在句以及下文“But Lily was not one to be deterred by challenges. She began training with a local coach, taking exercises to suit her abilities.(但Lily不是一个会因挑战而……的人。她开始跟随当地的一位教练进行训练,做一些适合自己能力的锻炼。)”可以看出,Lily并没有因为挑战而放弃,反而是积极应对。由此可知,“deterred”在这里的意思是“劝阻;使气馁”。选项A“Discouraged(使气馁)”。故选A。 7.推理判断题。根据文章第二段“Her progress was slow, but steady, and soon, she was able to take part in short races. As word of Lily’s achievements spread, she inspired (鼓舞) many in her community. People of all ages were moved by her courage and determination.(她的进步虽然缓慢,但很稳定,很快,她便能参加短距离赛跑。随着Lily取得的成就传开,她激励了社区中的许多人。无论老少,都被她的勇气和决心所感动。)”可知,Lily是个有决心,坚定的人;根据文章第三段“One particular event that showed Lily’s bravery was the annual Greenfield Marathon. Despite the doubts of many, Lily decided to have a try. She trained harder than ever before, pushing her body to its limits.(展现Lily勇气的一件事是格林菲尔德的年度马拉松比赛。尽管许多人表示怀疑,Lily还是决定尝试。她比以往任何时候都更加努力地训练,将自己的身体推向极限。)”可知,Lily是个勇敢的人。故选A。 8.推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Lily’s story is a reminder that true courage is not about being fearless but about facing our fears head-on and getting over them. Her journey has inspired countless individuals to chase their dreams, no matter how challenging they may seem.(Lily的故事提醒我们,真正的勇气不在于无所畏惧,而在于直面恐惧并克服它们。她的旅程激励了无数人去追求自己的梦想,无论这些梦想看起来多么具有挑战性。)”以及全文内容可知,Lily面对车祸导致的部分瘫痪,没有选择放弃,而是勇敢地面对挑战,通过无数个小时的康复训练,最终实现了自己的梦想。故选B。 Passage 03 (24-25高一上·四川成都·期中)Aza Raskin is the co-founder and president of the Earth Species Project (ESP 地球物种计划), a non-profit that uses a form of artificial intelligence(AI)to translate non-human languages. ESP wants to use its machine learning technology to translate and make this important information widely available to the public. Raskin underlined their goal to help protection by explaining, “The end we are working towards is that we can decode(解密)animal communication, discover the non-human language. Along the way and equally important is that we are developing technology that supports biologists and protection now.” ESP believes that understanding languages can help deepen our relationship with animals and allow us to more efficiently protect them. In the past, understanding the communication of animals heavily depends on boring and lengthy observation. From primate calls of alarms to dolphin whistles, scientists have been crazy about the different forms of non-human communication present in these animals. With the development of new technologies, researchers have now begun to understand the huge amounts of data available through machine learning. Elodie Briefer, an associate professor at the University of Copenhagen, has recently helped co-develop a pig grunt analyzing algorithm that helps scientists understand whether the pigs are expressing positive or negative emotions (情绪). However, ESP is dealing with decoding differently, by focusing on all species, not just one. The Earth Species Project believes that there is a possibility that social species communicate with each other, for example, whales and dolphins. Although the Earth Species Project believe that understanding AI machine learning data is only one step to full communication, they are hopeful that one day we will be able to understand the whole systems of communication. 9.What is the final goal of ESP's work? A.Translating animal languages. B.Helping protect animals better. C.Making more money for study. D.Applying AI to communication. 10.How does ESP help researchers understand non-human communication? A.It uses machine learning to provide information. B.It calls for researchers to live with social animals. C.It depends on large numbers of views on animals. D.It compares the past researches with present ones. 11.What is the attitude of ESP towards fully understanding animal languages? A.Unclear. B.Confident. C.Doubtful. D.Curious. 12.What is the text mainly about? A.Scientists are interested in animal communication B.How social animals communicate with each other. C.Researchers call on people timely to protect animals. D.AI technology may help understand animal languages. 【答案】9.B 10.A 11.B 12.D 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了ESP组织正通过机器学习的AI技术收集动物的交流信息解密动物语言,以帮助人类更好地了解动物,保护动物。 9.细节理解题。根据第二段“Raskin underlined their goal to help protection by explaining, ‘The end we are working towards is that we can decode (解密) animal communication, discover the non-human language.

In the experiment, people were asked to make a choice: Just take one pound or take a 50 percent chance of winning 2.50 pounds. When given this choice in their native language, most people took the safe choice of only getting one pound. But they were more willing to make the riskier choice when asked in a foreign language, leading to more profits (收益) overall, according to The Guardian. As Keysar put it, “People just hate the chance of losing, but they hate it less in a foreign language.” In another study published this year, Keysar and his team did an experiment in which participants were given a series of related words like “dream”, “snooze”, “bed” and “rest”. Later, when asked which words they remembered hearing, people were more likely to mistakenly remember “sleep”, which was not on the list, in their native language. But it was much less likely to happen if they did the test in a foreign language. As Keysar explained, people have more careful thinking when using a foreign language, leading to more accurate memories. The foreign language may even influence our personality. Silvia Purpuri at the University of Trento, Italy, looked at people’s willingness to face uncertainty and enter strange situations. Being tolerant (宽容的) of uncertainty allows people to have more creative ideas and be more open to new things. It turns out that people naturally score more highly on this trait (特点) when they can speak or use a foreign language because speaking a foreign language requires taking risks. The evidence is clear: By learning a foreign language, you’re not just learning a language—you’re gaining a new state of mind. 13.What does the first experiment suggest? A.People like expressing in a foreign language. B.People are afraid of losing in face of money. C.People make quick choices in their native language. D.People prefer riskier decisions in a foreign language. 14.Which of the following best explains “accurate” underlined in paragraph 3? A.Colorful. B.Simple. C.Usual. D.Exact. 15.Willingness to face uncertainty makes people ________. A.Cool-headed. B.Open-minded. C.Light-hearted. D.Easy-going. 16.What is the main idea of this text? A.Foreign languages change mistaken memories. B.People should learn to face uncertainty. C.Foreign languages influence how people think. D.Personality depends on language learning. 【答案】13.D 14.D 15.B 16.C 【导语】本文为一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了专家做实验证明外语与人们思维方式之间的关系,学习一门外语能影响人的思维方式,且不只是在学习一种语言,而是在获得一种新的思考方式。 13.细节理解题。根据文章第二段“But they were more willing to make the riskier choice when asked in a foreign language, leading to more profits (收益) overall, according to The Guardian.(根据The Guardian,当用外语提问时,他们更愿意做出风险更大的选择,从而整体上获得了更多的利益。)”可知,第一个实验表明,在被用外语提问时,人们更愿意冒险,故选D。 14.词句猜测题。根据文章第三段划线词accurate前文的内容“As Keysar explained, people have more careful thinking when using a foreign language (正如Keysar所解释的那样,当使用外语时,人们思考得更仔细)”可知,当人们在使用外语时,人们思考得更仔细,因此划线词与D项“Exact(确切的,准确的)”意思相近,人们思考得越仔细,从而就会带来越准确的记忆,故选D。 15.细节理解题。根据文章第四段“Being tolerant (宽容的) of uncertainty allows people to have more creative ideas and be more open to new things.(对不确定性的宽容能使人们有更多创造性的想法,对新事物更加开放。)”可知,愿意面对不确定性能让人们对事物更加开放,思想更开放,故选B。 16.主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“In a 2012 study, Boaz Keysar, a professor at the University of Chicago in the US, led an experiment on the relationship between foreign languages and people’s way of thinking.(在2012年的一项研究中,美国芝加哥大学的教授Boaz Keysar,领导了一项关于外语与人们思维方式之间的关系的实验。)”以及后文所提到的几项研究可知,文章主要探讨了学习外语会影响人的思维方式,学习一门外语不只是在学习一种语言,而是在获得一种新的思考方式,故选C。 Passage 05 (24-25高一上·江苏连云港·期中)Today’s young adults (aged 18 — 34) seem to avoid phone calls altogether, with a quarter admitting they’ve never even answered one. A recent survey shows a clear change in communication styles. Texting plays a leading role, with over 70% of young adults loving it. Voice notes are also very popular, being liked by nearly 40%. It seems linked to a general dislike of unexpected calls; more than half connect them with bad news. Interestingly, this aversion (讨厌) to phone calls isn’t shared by elders. Only 1% of those aged 35 — 54 use more texts than calls. The survey suggests a generational change in communication styles. Phone calls, once a useful tool for connection, are now seemingly dropping in favor of other methods like texting and voice notes. As reported, the young have played a main role in the online messages and text messages. An ordinary explanation for their unwillingness to answer phone calls is the pressure connected with them. More than half of them think there are negative news when receiving unexpected calls. The young generally like planned phone conversations as the primary means of communication. Whatever the case, it’s clear that today, we don’t even imagine communicating without the help of a phone. New technologies, such as social media, would ruin human relationships in the long term. As a matter of fact, this may already be happening. Indeed, we can’t ignore the value of the voice in human relations. Listening to the expression of another person brings us much closer to them. It’s also easier to emotionally connect with others in this way. Text messages are more often misunderstood. When communicating something serious, it’s always better to make a phone call. 17.What causes the change in communication styles? A.The young feel pleasant to answer phone calls. B.All of the young think voice notes are popular. C.Few young people connect them with bad news. D.The young are unwilling to receive unexpected calls. 18.What the function of the numbers listed in paragraph 2? A.To provide evidence. B.To make a comparison. C.To draw a conclusion. D.To explain the reasons. 19.What can we learn about making a phone call from the last paragraph? A.It is easier to respond to. B.It makes us feel far away. C.It brings a closer connection. D.It is more often misunderstood. 20.What is the best title for the text? A.Answer a phone call in no time! B.Put away your phone while talking! C.Can making a phone call be replaced? D.How can we communicate in the future? 【答案】17.D 18.B 19.C 20.C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讨论了年轻人对电话通话的回避以及对短信和语音留言的偏好,表明通信方式发生了代际变化,而电话作为联络工具的地位逐渐被其他方式所取代。同时,文章也强调了声音在人际关系中的重要性,指出在严肃沟通中,电话仍然是更好的选择。 17.细节理解题。根据第二段中“It seems linked to a general dislike of unexpected calls; more than half connect them with bad news. (这似乎与人们普遍不喜欢意外的电话有关;超过一半的人将它们与坏消息联系在一起)”可知,年轻人不愿意接听意外的电话是导致通信方式变化的主要原因。故选D项。 18.推理判断题。根据第二段中“Texting plays a leading role, with over 70% of young adults loving it. Voice notes are also very popular, being liked by nearly 40%. (发短信在其中占主导地位,超过70%的年轻人喜欢发短信。语音留言也很受欢迎,有近40%的人喜欢)”和“Interestingly, this aversion (讨厌) to phone calls isn’t shared by elders. Only 1% of those aged 35 — 54 use more texts than calls. (有趣的是,老年人并不反感打电话。在35至54岁的人群中,只有1%的人发短信比打电话多)”可推知,此处的数字用于比较不同年龄段的人在通信方式上的偏好。故选B项。 19.推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Indeed, we can’t ignore the value of the voice in human relations. Listening to the expression of another person brings us much closer to them. It’s also easier to emotionally connect with others in this way. (的确,我们不能忽视声音在人际关系中的价值。倾听他人的表达能让我们更接近他们。以这种方式与他人建立情感联系也更容易)”可知,倾听声音在人际关系中很重要,能更好地维系亲近感,建立情感联系。由此可知,打电话可以带来更紧密的联系。故选C项。 20.主旨大意题。通读全文可知,文章主要讨论了年轻人对电话通话的回避以及对短信和语音留言的偏好,表明通信方式发生了代际变化,而电话作为联络工具的地位逐渐被其他方式所取代。同时,文章也强调了声音在人际关系中的重要性,指出在严肃沟通中,电话仍然是更好的选择。因此,C项“打电话会被取代吗?”涵盖了通信方式的变化和对未来通信方式的思考,契合文章主旨,适合作为文章标题。故选C项。 Passage 06 (24-25高一上·浙江衢州·期中)It was an ordinary day when I got a message from my daughter’s kindergarten about an upcoming school dance performance. At first, I thought, “How wonderful, I can’t wait to see her perform!” But to my dismay, I discovered it wasn’t just the students, parents were expected to join as well. “Oh, my god. I’m short of rhythm, coordination (协调性) and having stage (舞台) fear. How could I take part in it?” That evening my idea was destroyed as my daughter came home excitedly, “Dad, this is going to be fun. We should wear matching pink T-shirts and stand at the front so everyone can see us.” And so, we began with practice in front of the television. My wife had luckily found a past performance on Douyin. At this point, I realised our performance would also end up online and any mistake could finally be turned into a joke. The stress had now been increased. The first at-home practice went as badly as you could imagine. And fast forward to Saturday and it was time for a group practice at school. Given the short notice, I expected the other parents to be struggling as much as me. I was wrong. They moved so well that they would equal to the dancers of Bolshoi Ballet. In the days to come we worked very hard and both our confidence and coordination improved quickly. My daughter moved like a swan (天鹅), while I still moved like an elephant. The day of the big show arrived and my nervousness became less. It turns out that getting nowhere near enough sleep before a big performance is the perfect cure for stage fear. Moreover, my daughter was having the time of her life and that alone powered me through. Reflecting on the past two weeks, I realized this experience had enriched us both. It marked the first time my daughter and I learned something new together. I find myself looking forward to similar events like this in the future. 21.What does the underlined word “dismay” probably mean in paragraph 1? A.Happiness. B.Anger. C.Surprise. D.Excitement. 22.What can we learn about the author? A.He didn’t sleep well before the big performance. B.He practised dancing with his daughter smoothly. C.He was very nervous when the big performance arrived. D.He had stress because he didn’t want to dance with his daughter. 23.What did the author realize after the big performance? A.He could dance as well as his daughter. B.The experience had brought a lot to his family. C.The other parents were struggling as much as him. D.Confidence and coordination are very important in the performance. 24.What is the best title of the passage? A.A Stage Experience: Excitement to Sadness B.A Dance Performance: Fear to Enjoyment C.A Stage Experience: Discovering Joy through Movement D.A Dance Performance: Getting out of Fear through Dance 【答案】21.C 22.A 23.B 24.B 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者因女儿幼儿园舞蹈表演家长也要参与而发愁,看到其他家长表现出色后努力练习。表演虽仍不完美,但作者因女儿很享受这个过程而坚持下来,回顾这段经历作者觉得收获颇丰,并且期待未来类似活动。 21.词句猜测题。根据画线词的上文“At first, I thought, “How wonderful, I can’t wait to see her perform!” (起初,我想,“太棒了,我迫不及待地想看她的表演!”)”和下文“I discovered it wasn’t just the students, parents were expected to join as well. “Oh, my god. I’m short of rhythm, coordination (协调性) and having stage (舞台) fear. How could I take part in it?” (我发现不只是学生,家长们也被期望加入。“哦,我的天哪。我缺乏节奏感、协调性,还有舞台恐惧症。我怎么能参加呢?”)”可知,作者原本以为只有女儿需要表演,非常期待她的演出,后来发现家长居然也要参与其中,非常担心自己的表现。由此可知,家长也要参与其中的消息会令作者非常惊讶,画线词意思应该与Surprise“惊讶”一致。故选C项。 22.推理判断题。根据第四段中“It turns out that getting nowhere near enough sleep before a big performance is the perfect cure for stage fear. (事实证明,在大型演出前没有充足的睡眠是治疗舞台恐惧的最佳方法)”可推知,演出前作者没睡好。故选A项。 23.细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Reflecting on the past two weeks, I realized this experience had enriched us both. It marked the first time my daughter and I learned something new together. (回顾过去的两个星期,我意识到这段经历丰富了我们俩。这是我和女儿第一次一起学习新的东西)”可知,在这场表演之后,作者意识到这次经历给他的家人带来了很多。故选B项。 24.主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是第一段中“It was an ordinary day when I got a message from my daughter’s kindergarten about an upcoming school dance performance. (那是一个平常的日子,我收到女儿幼儿园发来的短信,说学校即将举行舞蹈表演)”可知,文章围绕作者作为家长的一次舞蹈表演经历展开,讲述了作者因女儿幼儿园舞蹈表演家长也要参与而发愁,看到其他家长表现出色后努力练习。表演虽仍不完美,但作者因女儿很享受这个过程而坚持下来,回顾这段经历作者觉得收获颇丰,并且期待未来类似活动。因此,B项“一次舞蹈表演:从恐惧到享受”大致概括了作者这次经历的心路历程,契合文章主旨,适合作为文章标题。故选B项。 Passage 07 (24-25高一上·江苏常州·期中)Relationships-romantic or not-are full of disappointment and frustration (沮丧). Even the most sincere and loving friends will have differing opinions. Sometimes, our heart broke when our friends arrive. Imagine this: you’ve just painted a picture you consider a great work, but the meaningful smile on your friends’ face upon seeing it tells you that, however highly they praise your painting, it is no masterpiece to them. People have long sought ways to circumvent these frustrations with art or technology. An old Roman tale tells of a man who once made his ideal friend out of stone, which was later brought to life through his prayer and communicated only with him. Similarly, modern young people also refuse undesirable socializing by watching movies and surfing the Internet. Sometimes it seems as if we can’t live with people. Yet, as social beings, we can’t live without them. When I first began having conversations with ChatGPT, I wondered if I had found a new friend. The chatbot seemed able to discuss anything. We had discussion on countless topics, in which it seemed to willingly accept some of my arguments, and its conclusion mirrored my own thoughts in a way that made me think, “Yes, we’re on the same wavelength!” As a friend, ChatGPT has qualities that a human friend could hardly match. It can offer a wealth of knowledge on any subject although sometimes it may repeat misinformation or make minor mistakes. Furthermore, it will never tell you that it is too busy or not in the mood to talk with you. However, if we can not accept the frustrations brought by human friends, there is a great chance that we can’t really know ourselves, and thus we won’t really grow. How do you react when you realize that your painting is actually not a great one? You won’t know unless you show it to someone and get a true and honest answer. When you and a friend want to do different things, will you compromise (妥协) or force your ideas on your friend? ChatGPT won’t give you the responses you expect from a human friend. However enjoyable your discussions with it may be, the relationships you develop with your fellow humans have no equal. 25.What does the example in Paragraph 1 show? A.The possibility of friends lying to you. B.The difference in opinion between friends. C.The difficulty in creating a great artwork. D.The importance of seeking friends’ praise. 26.What does the underlined word “circumvent” in paragraph 2 mean? A.Experience. B.Face. C.Avoid. D.Judge. 27.What makes ChatGPT seem like a good friend? A.It’s knowledgeable and like-minded. B.It never makes a mistake in discussion C.It considers your painting a great work. D.It allows you to know yourself and grow. 28.What does the author want to say according to the text? A.There is no replacement for human friends. B.Humans should avoid all social activities. C.Technology and art are better than friendship. D.ChatGPT is the perfect friend for everyone. 【答案】25.B 26.C 27.A 28.A 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。本文简单概括了人们在社交关系中常遇到的失望与沮丧,并介绍了现代人通过艺术、科技等方式来规避这种情绪的现象。但文章也指出,与真实的人类朋友相比,AI无法提供人类情感的真实反馈和成长机会,因此人类与真实朋友的关系是无可替代的。 25.推理判断题。根据第一段中“Sometimes, our heart broke when our friends arrive. Imagine this: you’ve just painted a picture you consider a great work, but the meaningful smile on your friends’ face upon seeing it tells you that, however highly they praise your painting, it is no masterpiece to them.(有时候,当我们的朋友到来时,我们的心都碎了。想象一下:你刚刚画了一幅你认为是伟大的作品,但是你的朋友看到这幅画时脸上意味深长的微笑告诉你,无论他们对你的画评价有多高,这幅画对他们来说都不是杰作。)”可知,这个例子说明了即使是最真诚和友爱的朋友之间也会有不同的看法。故选B。 26.词义猜测题。根据第一段中“Sometimes, our heart broke when our friends arrive. Imagine this: you’ve just painted a picture you consider a great work, but the meaningful smile on your friends’ face upon seeing it tells you that, however highly they praise your painting, it is no masterpiece to them.(有时候,当我们的朋友到来时,我们的心都碎了。想象一下:你刚刚画了一幅你认为是伟大的作品,但是你的朋友看到这幅画时脸上意味深长的微笑告诉你,无论他们对你的画评价有多高,这幅画对他们来说都不是杰作。)”可知,这个例子说明了即使是最真诚和友爱的朋友之间也会有不同的看法。同时根据划线词前面的内容“People have long sought ways…these frustrations with art or technology. (长期以来,人们一直在寻找通过艺术或技术来……这些挫折的方法。)”可知,人们一直在寻求通过艺术或技术来避免这些令人沮丧的情绪即通过艺术或者技术的手段避免第一段中所提及情况的出现。故划线词与C选项“Avoid(避免)”为同义词。故选C。 27.细节理解题。根据第四段中“It can offer a wealth of knowledge on any subject although sometimes it may repeat misinformation or make minor mistakes. Furthermore, it will never tell you that it is too busy or not in the mood to talk with you.(它可以提供关于任何主题的丰富知识,尽管有时它可能会重复错误信息或犯一些小错误。此外,它永远不会告诉你,它太忙或没有心情和你说话。)”可知,作为朋友,ChatGPT拥有一个人类朋友几乎无法比拟的品质。它可以就任何主题提供丰富的知识,此外,它永远不会告诉你它太忙或没有心情和你交谈,即ChatGPT之所以看起来像是一个好朋友,是因为它既知识渊博又与作者志同道合。故选A。 28.推理判断题。根据最后一段中“However, if we cannot accept the frustrations brought by human friends, there is a great chance that we can’t really know ourselves, and thus we won’t really grow.( 然而,如果我们不能接受人类朋友带来的挫折,我们很有可能无法真正了解自己,因此我们不会真正成长。)”以及“However enjoyable your discussions with it may be, the relationships you develop with your fellow humans have no equal.( 无论你与它的讨论多么愉快,你与你的人类同伴发展的关系都是不平等的。)”可知,尽管与ChatGPT的讨论可能很有趣,但与人类建立的关系是无与伦比的。因此,作者想要表达的是人类朋友是无法替代的。 故选A。 Passage 08 (24-25高一上·江苏常州·期中)Once I read about a country where if you go to a house and praise some small things, the owners feel it a must to offer it to you as a gift. I don’t remember the name of the country; the only other place I know of with such a custom is my mother’s home. Knowing Mama, I have always been careful with my praise, but that doesn’t stop her. She can always sense admiration beyond words. “I was just staring at that photo of Mount Hood because I have a similar one in my bedroom.” Mama would nod, “Of course. You were thinking how nice it would be to have a set. If a mother doesn’t understand, who does?” Recently I have been worrying for weeks about a Mother’s Day gift for Mama, as there is always the danger that a gift given to Mama will quickly come back to the giver. If I buy her something wearable, she immediately finds it fits me perfectly. If I give her a plant, she cuts off the top for me to take home and root in a glass of water. If I give her some food, she wants me to stay for lunch and eat it. My wise Papa, long ago stopped trying to shop for her. Instead, on every important occasion he writes a short poem in which he tells of their meeting, wedding, and later marriage life. After nearly 30 years of poems, Papa sometimes worries that his poetic inspiration has dried up, but Mama doesn’t complain. She comes into the room while he is struggling over a gift poem and says, “It doesn’t have to rhyme (押韵) as long as it’s from the heart.” This year, finally, I think I, too, have found a painless gift for Mama. I am going to give her a magazine article, unrhymed but from the heart, in which I wish her “Happy Mother’s Day” and tell her there’s nothing Papa or I could ever buy, find, or make her that would be half good enough anyway. 29.Why does the author mention the country in Paragraph 1? A.To explain a rule. B.To lead in the topic. C.To present a fact. D.To prove his point. 30.Why is the author always careful with her praises? A.She doesn’t like any small things. B.Mama will be too proud of herself. C.She doesn’t want Mama to know real her.D.Mama will give her whatever she praises. 31.What makes it difficult to buy a gift for Mama? A.Mama’s refusal of any gifts. B.Mama’s misunderstanding of givers. C.Mama’s attitude to festivals. D.Mama’s practice of giving back. 32.What does the author imply in the last two paragraphs? A.Mama values sincere love over gift itself. B.Poems and articles are Mama’s favorite gifts C.Papa writes poems as gifts to save money. D.Papa and I could never find a good enough gift for Mama. 【答案】29.B 30.D 31.D 32.A 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。本文讲述了作者为母亲挑选母亲节礼物的经历。作者决定送母亲一篇自己写的文章作为礼物,文章虽不押韵,但发自内心,以此表达对母亲的爱和祝福。 29.推理判断题。根据第一段中“Once I read about a country where if you go to a house and praise some small things, the owners feel it a must to offer it to you as a gift. I don’t remember the name of the country; the only other place I know of with such a custom is my mother’s home.( 有一次我读到一个国家,如果你去一所房子,夸赞一些小东西,房主就会觉得必须把它作为礼物送给你。我不记得那个国家的名字了;我所知道的另一个有这种习俗的地方是我母亲的家。)”可知,作者在第一段通过一个关于赞扬与赠送礼物的国家习俗来引出自己母亲也有类似的习惯,从而自然过渡到文章的主题——关于给母亲送礼物的故事。因此,这里的目的是引出文章主题。故选B。 30.细节理解题。根据第二段中“ She can always sense admiration beyond words.( 她总能感受到无以言表的赞赏。)”以及““I was just staring at that photo of Mount Hood because I have a similar one in my bedroom.” Mama would nod, “Of course. You were thinking how nice it would be to have a set. If a mother doesn’t understand, who does?”(“我只是盯着胡德山的照片看,因为我卧室里也有一张类似的照片。”妈妈会点头说:“当然。你在想要是有一套就好了。如果一个母亲都不明白,还有谁能明白呢?”)”可知,作者知道如果她对某样东西表示赞美,母亲很可能会将它作为礼物送给她。因此,为了避免这种情况,她总是小心地赞美。故选D。 31.细节理解题。根据第三段中“Recently I have been worrying for weeks about a Mother’s Day gift for Mama, as there is always the danger that a gift given to Mama will quickly come back to the giver. (最近几周,我一直在为给妈妈买一份母亲节礼物而烦恼,因为送给妈妈的礼物很快就会回到送礼者手中的危险总是存在的。)”可知,作者担心给母亲的礼物会很快回到送礼人手中,因为母亲总是以各种方式回馈礼物。这说明了给妈妈买礼物的困难所在。故选D。 32.推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“ Instead, on every important occasion he writes a short poem in which he tells of their meeting, wedding, and later marriage life. After nearly 30 years of poems, Papa sometimes worries that his poetic inspiration has dried up, but Mama doesn’t complain. (相反,在每个重要的场合,他都会写一首短诗,讲述他们的相遇、婚礼和后来的婚姻生活。做了近30年的诗,爸爸有时担心他的诗歌灵感已经枯竭,但妈妈并不抱怨。)”以及““It doesn’t have to rhyme (押韵) as long as it’s from the heart.”(“不需要押韵,只要是发自内心的。”)”以及最后一段中“This year, finally, I think I, too, have found a painless gift for Mama. I am going to give her a magazine article, unrhymed but from the heart, in which I wish her “Happy Mother’s Day” and tell her there’s nothing Papa or I could ever buy, find, or make her that would be half good enough anyway.( 今年,终于,我想我也为妈妈找到了一份无痛的礼物。我要给她在杂志上写一篇文章,虽然不押韵,但发自肺腑,祝她“母亲节快乐”,并告诉她,无论如何,爸爸和我给她买的、找的或做的东西都不够好。)”可知,作者提到父亲写诗作为礼物,并且母亲并不在意诗是否押韵,只在乎它是否来自内心。接着,作者决定给母亲一篇不押韵但发自内心的杂志文章作为礼物。这些描述都暗示了母亲更看重的是真诚的爱而非礼物本身。故选A。 Passage 09 (24-25高一上·黑龙江哈尔滨·期中)Soon, every seat on an airplane could be a window seat! New concept designs are revealing how travelers will be able to watch the stars above in future airplanes. Aerospace giant Airbus is showing off its vision of next-gen cabins (客舱), which include an all-round view of clouds as you jet through them. The Airspace Cabin Vision 2035+ concept also lets passengers tap on smart interactive windows that show travel time and let you explore your destination city. The French company also says passengers will enjoy a greater choice of meals thanks to new pre-ordering concepts. They believe that, by collecting your meal at the gate, food and packaging waste could be reduced by up to 15 percent. The company explains their ethos is “to reduce emissions (排放) at heart”. “Right now, research shows the cabin can contribute between 10% and 20% to the aircraft’s overall environmental impact during its lifecycle,” Airbus officials write. “Putting a focus on reducing this, Airbus brought together ten airlines and eight technology companies to feed into a vision that rethinks the way the cabin should look and feel, maintaining superior passenger comfort.” Airbus found that one of the biggest measures in the cabin for reducing emissions is lightweight solutions. To achieve this, efforts should be focused on creating lighter “bionic designs” that will help reduce cabin weight by up to 40 percent. “As the world shifts to a more circular (循环的) economy, we are rethinking the materials used inside the cabin so they’re able to be recycled, reused and repaired during their lifecycle. This is also a key part of the 2035+ vision,” Airbus officials explain. “Cabin inside and parts will be developed for current aircraft using new materials and a complete introduction of these will be rolled out with the next generation aircraft.” 33.What can we know about the next-gen cabins from the first two paragraphs? A.They will be made of glasses. B.They will shorten travel time greatly. C.They will reduce food waste to some extent. D.They will provide whatever food passengers want. 34.What does the underlined word “ethos” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A.Advice. B.Film. C.Loss. D.Idea. 35.What can be inferred about the future materials used inside the cabin? A.They are cheaper. B.They are more eco-friendly. C.They are more convenient. D.They are more available. 36.What is the purpose of the passage? A.To advertise some new flights. B.To call on people to live a greener life. C.To introduce new design ideas of a plane. D.To explain how to make planes smarter. 【答案】33.C 34.D 35.B 36.C 【导语】本文是说明文。主要介绍了空中客车公司对下一代飞机客舱的概念设计。 33.细节理解题。根据第二段的“The French company also says passengers will enjoy a greater choice of meals thanks to new pre-ordering concepts.

(“随着世界经济向更循环的经济转变,我们正在重新考虑机舱内使用的材料,以便它们能够在其生命周期内被回收、再利用和修复。这也是2035+愿景的关键部分,”空客官员解释说。)”可知,空客官员解释说他们正在重新考虑机舱内使用的材料,以便它们能够在其生命周期内被回收、再利用和修复,由此可知,未来的飞机客舱内使用的材料更环保。故选B。 36.推理判断题。根据第一段的“New concept designs are revealing how travelers will be able to watch the stars above in future airplanes. Aerospace giant Airbus is showing off its vision of next-gen cabins (客舱), which include an all-round view of clouds as you jet through them. (新的概念设计揭示了乘客在未来的飞机上如何仰望星空。航空巨头空中客车公司正在展示其对下一代机舱的设想,其中包括当你穿过云层时的全方位视野。)”以及全文内容可知,文章主要介绍了空中客车公司对下一代飞机客舱的概念设计,包括智能互动窗户、减少食物浪费以及更环保的材料等新设计理念,因此文章的目的是介绍飞机的新设计思想。故选C。 Passage 10 (24-25高一上·江苏常州·期中)Heman Bekele has been named TIME’s Kid of the Year for 2024. The 15-year-old has come up with an idea for a soap that could help treat skin cancer, and he is already working with scientists to test his idea. Heman’s family came to the US from Ethiopia when he was four. Heman remembers seeing people there working outside in the sun without proper sun protection, which may well increase the risk of skin cancer. From his parents, he had a deeper understanding of its dangers. Skin cancer can often be cured, but the treatment is extremely expensive for those poor workers. Heman’s natural curiosity led him to experiment with different materials and at the age of 7, he nearly caused a fire with a chemistry set. As he got older, he began to wonder if his curiosity could actually help make a difference. Upon reading about imiquimod, a medicine that can help fight skin cancer in the early stages, he realized it was a good way to make the medicine work through a simple bar of soap. But Heman knew that simply mixing imiquimod with soap wouldn’t work, as it would just wash away. Instead, he thought of creating a soap that contained the medicine inside super tiny “nanoparticles” (纳米颗粒) to make sure it remains on the skin after the soap washed off, allowing imiquimod to take effect. Last year, when he was 14, Heman created a video explaining his idea, and won the 3M Young Scientist Challenge. He is now working with scientists at Johns Hopkins University, running tests to see if the soap helps mice with skin cancer. Heman knows that it will take a long time and a lot of effort to develop his soap, but he’s excited about the work. He also encourages other young people to contribute. “Just keep inventing and thinking of new ways to improve our world and make it a better place,” Heman says. 37.What drove Heman Bekele to create the soap? A.His curiosity about skin cancer. B.His desire to develop a new medicine. C.His family’s history of skin cancer. D.His concern for unprotected workers outdoors. 38.Why does Heman use nanoparticles in his soap? A.To make imiquimod affordable B.To make imiquimod easier to use. C.To help imiquimod stick to the skin. D.To help imiquimod spread faster. 39.Which of the following best describes Heman according to the text? A.Curious and creative. B.Focused and frank. C.Understanding and modest. D.Efficient and generous. 40.What can be the suitable title of the passage? A.Fight against skin cancer. B.Be a gifted teenager. C.Follow a medical career. D.Meet a young scientist. 【答案】37.D 38.C 39.A 40.D 【导语】本文为一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了海曼·贝克莱发明了一种可能有助于对抗皮肤癌的肥皂。 37.细节理解题。第二段中提到“Heman remembers seeing people there working outside in the sun without proper sun protection, which may well increase the risk of skin cancer. From his parents, he had a deeper understanding of its dangers. Skin cancer can often be cured, but the treatment is extremely expensive for those poor workers.( 海曼记得在那里看到人们在户外工作而没有适当的防晒措施,这可能增加患皮肤癌的风险。从父母那里,他对皮肤癌的危险有了更深的理解。皮肤癌通常可以治愈,但对那些贫穷的工人来说,治疗费用极其昂贵。)”可知,海曼因为看到户外工作的工人没有适当的防晒措施,且治疗皮肤癌的费用昂贵,所以产生了创造这种肥皂的想法,以帮助他们预防或治疗皮肤癌。故选D。 38.细节理解题。第四段中提到“ Instead, he thought of creating a soap that contained the medicine inside super tiny “nanoparticles” (纳米颗粒) to make sure it remains on the skin after the soap washed off, allowing imiquimod to take effect.(相反,海曼想到创造一种含有药物的纳米颗粒肥皂,以确保在肥皂洗去后药物仍留在皮肤上,从而使imiquimod 发挥作用。)”可知,海曼使用纳米颗粒是为了让imiquimod 能够附着在皮肤上,从而发挥作用。故选C。 39.推理判断题。第三段中提到“Heman’s natural curiosity led him to experiment with different materials and at the age of 7, he nearly caused a fire with a chemistry set.(海曼的天然好奇心驱使他尝试不同的材料,并在7岁时,他差点因化学实验引发火灾。)”以及第四段中提到“ Instead, he thought of creating a soap that contained the medicine inside super tiny “nanoparticles” (纳米颗粒) to make sure it remains on the skin after the soap washed off, allowing imiquimod to take effect.(相反,海曼想到创造一种含有药物的纳米颗粒肥皂,以确保在肥皂洗去后药物仍留在皮肤上,从而使imiquimod 发挥作用。)”可知,他想到用纳米颗粒将药物包裹在肥皂中,这些都表明海曼是一个好奇且有创造力的人。故选A。 40.主旨大意题。全文主要讲述了海曼·贝克莱这位年轻科学家的故事,包括他的家庭背景、发明创造以及他对未来的展望等。文章最后一段也提到“He also encourages other young people to contribute. ‘Just keep inventing and thinking of new ways to improve our world and make it a better place,’ Heman says.(他还鼓励其他年轻人做出贡献。“继续发明,思考改善我们世界的新方法,让它变得更好,”海曼说。)”可知,文章进一步强调了海曼作为年轻科学家的身份和影响力。D选项“Meet a young scientist.( 认识一位年轻的科学家。)”符合文章标题。故选D。 Passage 11 (24-25高一上·江苏南通·期中)Dirty sodas, a mixed drink that combines (联合) your favorite soft drink with add-ins like cream or coffee creamer and sweeteners, started to rise a few years ago but recently gained nationwide attention in the TV shows. Now, people are trying out different combinations and sharing methods online. According to Yelp, users have been looking to get their hands on one with searches for “dirty soda” up 609% compared to September 2023. “What makes this trend (趋势) so exciting is its endless customizability (可定制性),” said Yelp’s trend expert Tara Lewis. “Recently, we’re even seeing new methods that use protein shakes instead of cream. As we head into Sober October, we also see this trend changing into a fun cocktail and expect to continue to see this growth as more people search for non-alcoholic alternatives (非酒精替代品) past Dry January.” As the latest drink craze to hit social media, we asked nutrition experts what they thought about the mixed drink. “There’s nothing wrong with dirty soda itself — it’s just a sweet drink with added sweeteners and creamers. The amount of sugar you’d get from one really depends on whether you’re using diet or regular soda, and sugar-free or creamer,” said Christine Byrne, an expert and owner of Ruby Oak Nutrition. “Dirty soda should be looked at as an occasional treat, the same as cake, soda, sugary coffee drinks and any other high-calorie, low-nutrient food,” she added. As alternatives have been shown in recent studies to be connected with potential negative health effects, dirty soda has also come into question. Dirty soda is very high in calories coming from sugar and possibly saturated fat if the drink contains cream. “We know regularly eating foods high in sugar and saturated fat has something to do with an increased risk for many health conditions like obesity, heart disease, diabetes and several types of cancer,” Byrne said. 41.Why is the figure mentioned in paragraph 1? A.To introduce the trend of dirty sodas. B.To show the importance of dirty sodas. C.To show the popularity of dirty sodas in the whole country. D.To prove the impact of TV on people throughout the whole nation. 42.What makes the mixed drink trend interesting? A.Experts provide ways to live a healthy life. B.TV shows introduce many interesting dirty sodas. C.Dirty sodas can be mixed with non-alcohol alternatives. D.People can make dirty sodas with different materials as they like. 43.What can we infer from Christine Byrne’s statements? A.We should avoid dirty sodas. B.Dirty sodas is unhealthy and harmful. C.Dirty sodas is healthy and full of nutrition. D.We should avoid too much sugar when having dirty sodas. 44.What does the text focus on? A.Dirty drink and its methods. B.Interesting drink and its benefits. C.Dirty sodas and its development. D.The latest drink trend and its health impact. 【答案】41.C 42.D 43.D 44.D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。本文主要介绍了介绍dirty sodas这一最新的饮品趋势及其对健康的影响。 41.推理判断题。根据第一段中“Dirty sodas, a mixed drink that combines (联合) your favorite soft drink with add-ins like cream or coffee creamer and sweeteners, started to rise a few years ago but recently gained nationwide attention in the TV shows.

Zhou Chengyu was in charge of the rocket connector system--described as a vital role. Social media users have been celebrating her brilliance and referring to her as pride of the country. Her story in particular has drawn the public’s attention given her young age. Being the youngest of the team, Zhou Chengyu was born in 1996 in the province of Guizhou. She is certainly not “old” enough compared with her colleagues, but she is known at work as "Big Sister” as a sign of respect. Once in a 3-km running contest, she actually beat half of her male counterparts. Although work shifts are not uncommon at the Wenchang Spacecraft Launch Site, each shift requires huge courage because of the different background knowledge. However, for Zhou Chengyu, she experienced multiple (多种的) positions in 5 launching tests and now she is the youngest commander at the site. Despite carefulness and high responsibility at work, she is just like her peers in normal life. Eating snacks and shopping are her favorite free-time activities. Her high school teacher remembers her as tough and determined. “She always had a dream of becoming scientist,” said her physics teacher. According to her colleague, Zhou Chengyu was very surprised when she found out she went viral online. She said that she was happy when she saw people online regarding her as the pride of the country, and yet she kept saying that she was “nobody but normal worker at a launch site” and there are a lot more people just like her going unnoticed while doing the hardest job to guarantee a better future for the Chinese space program. She also said that she wished to remain her current status (现状) and continue doing her work with or without the popularity. 45.What makes Zhou Chengyu the pride of the country? A.Her young age.

Social media users have been celebrating her brilliance and referring to her as pride of the country. Her story in particular has drawn the public’s attention given her young age.(周承钰负责火箭连接系统——这是一个至关重要的角色。社交媒体用户一直在庆祝她的才华,称她为国家的骄傲。考虑到她的年龄,她的故事尤其引起了公众的关注。)”可知,周承钰成为国家的骄傲是因为她负责火箭连接系统,在工作中担任着重要作用。故选C项。 46.推理判断题。根据第四段中“Her high school teacher remembers her as tough and determined. “She always had a dream of becoming scientist,” said her physics teacher.(在她的高中老师的印象中,她是一个坚强而坚定的人。“她一直梦想成为科学家,”她的物理老师说。)”可知,周承钰是一个非常坚定的人,再根据最后一段中“and yet she kept saying that she was “nobody but normal worker at a launch site”(但她一直说她“只是发射场的普通工人”)”可知,周承钰是一个非常谦虚的人。由此可知,周承钰是一个坚定且谦虚的人。故选D项。 47.词义猜测题。根据最后一段中“She also said that she wished to remain her current status (现状)and continue doing her work with or without the popularity.(她还说,她希望保持目前的状态,无论是否受欢迎,都要继续她的工作。)”可知,周承钰在网络上受到了大家的欢迎。由此可知,划线词所在句“According to her colleague, Zhou Chengyu was very surprised when she found out she went viral online.”意为“据她的同事说,当周承钰发现自己在网上走红时,她非常惊讶。”即划线词意为“走红”与C项became very popular“变得很受欢迎”意思一致。故选C项。 48.主旨大意题。根据文章大意以及第二段中“Social media users have been celebrating her brilliance and referring to her as pride of the country.(社交媒体用户一直在庆祝她的才华,称她为国家的骄傲。)”以及全文都在叙述有关她是祖国骄傲的事迹,可知,本文的最佳标题是“年轻的骄傲”。故选A项。 Passage 13 (24-25高一上·浙江·期中)We often hear about schools cutting back on bus routes to save money, yet plenty of communities have their buses stopping almost as often as the mail truck. While the presence of sidewalks (人行道) and the safety of area roads play a role in who gets house-to-house pickup or end-of-the-street pickup, Peter Mannella, director at the New York Association for Pupil Transportation says community culture can play an even larger role in the transportation situation. For example, several years ago, Bethlehem tried spacing out its stops, says Mannella. The parents were unhappy, expressed as much and, within three days, the routes were back to normal. “You can say’ we are going to save $100,000 by not stopping at every house,’ but parents don’ t want their kids walking,” Mannella says. As you’d expect, this is especially true in bad weather. As a student in the 1980s, we walked to our stops. The neighborhood wait-spot was a good quarter mile away. Parents didn’t make a fuss (大惊小怪), and no child was injured. In fact, the walking was good — it woke us up each morning. Not to mention, the sense of community that came with hanging out together each morning waiting for bus No. 23 to roll up and take us all to school. Thing is, a lot has changed since the 1980s. Too many people are texting and driving, making them as dangerous on the roads as drunken drivers. And, with reduced work forces at many companies, parents often work longer hours, meaning they aren’t around to guard their kids to and from stops like many parents did when we were growing up. So I’ll give them an understanding pass on not wanting their children to walk a mile each way to get to and from school. I can’t agree with the complaints of having kids walk to a community neighborhood stop, though. If you worry they’re going to be cold, get them a hat. If you fear they may miss the bus, send them bout the door five minutes earlier. 49.What do we know about Bethlehem’s plan? A.It ended up in failure. B.It lasted for a long time. C.It wasn’t put into practice. D.It saved a lot of money. 50.What can we learn about students in the 1980s from paragraph 3? A.They woke up early in the morning. B.They were driven to school by parents. C.They usually hung out with their neighbors. D.They benefited by walking to a neighborhood stop. 51.Why are today’s parents unwilling to let their children walk to a neighborhood stop? A.Distracted (注意力分散的) drivers cause a danger on the roads. B.The weather conditions are awful in winter. C.Parents place work before family. D.Drunken drivers are dangerous on the roads. 52.What is the author’s attitude towards children walking to bus stops? A.Doubtful. B.Uncaring. C.Supportive. D.Objective. 【答案】49.A 50.D 51.A 52.C 【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章讨论了学校减少校车路线的现象,以及社区文化和家长态度对这一决策的影响,并表达了对孩子们步行去公交车站的支持。 49.细节理解题。根据第二段中“For example, several years ago, Bethlehem tried spacing out its stops, says Mannella. The parents were unhappy, expressed as much and, within three days, the routes were back to normal.(Mannella说,例如,几年前,Bethlehem曾尝试间隔停靠站。父母很不高兴,表达了同样的不满,三天内,路线恢复正常。)”可知,Bethlehem的计划最终以失败告终。故选A项。 50.推理判断题。根据第三段中“As a student in the 1980s, we walked to our stops. The neighborhood wait-spot was a good quarter mile away. Parents didn’t make a fuss (大惊小怪), and no child was injured.(作为20世纪80年代的学生,我们步行到站。附近的停车场离这里足足有四分之一英里远。家长们没有大惊小怪,也没有孩子受伤。)”可知,从第三段我们可以了解到80年代的学生受益于步行到附近的一个站点。故选D项。 51.推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“ Too many people are texting and driving, making them as dangerous on the roads as drunken drivers. (太多的人边开车边发短信,这使得他们在路上和酒后驾车一样危险。)”可知,今天的父母不愿意让他们的孩子步行到附近的车站是因为注意力分散的司机会在道路上造成危险。故选A项。 52.推理判断题。根据最后一段中“ I can’t agree with the complaints of having kids walk to a community neighborhood stop, though. If you worry they’re going to be cold, get them a hat. If you fear they may miss the bus, send them bout the door five minutes earlier.(不过,我不同意抱怨让孩子步行到社区车站。如果你担心他们会冷,给他们买顶帽子。如果你担心他们会错过公共汽车,让他们早五分钟出门。)”可知,作者对孩子们步行去公交车站是支持的。故选C项。 Passage 14 (24-25高一上·云南临沧·期中)Physical education, or gym class, isn’t required for all high school students. In some schools, it isn’t offered for some different reasons. But should high school students have physical education? The answer is certainly “yes”. Today many people don’t do sports. But as is known to all, doing sports is very important for an adult. Teaching teens the importance of a healthy lifestyle and making fitness plans now can help teens put exercise in the first place as an adult. High school isn’t that easy. Many students are under a lot of stress. Stress can be harmful to a student’s studies and life. Doing sports can help them deal with stress better, helping them live a happier life at school. The American Heart Association says that 10 million kids and teens suffer from obesity (肥胖症). Teens should get 60 minutes of physical activity per day to control their weight and to help their bones get stronger. The increase in activities that don’t get teens to move around, such as video games and computer activities, means many teens don’t get their required exercise. Physical education classes act as a public health measure to encourage activities and help teens have healthy weights. Inactivity increases teens’ risk of developing many diseases. An active lifestyle offers a good way of protection from these health problems. As much as 75 percent of health-care spending goes towards treating medical conditions that can be hindered by lifestyle changes, according to the American College of Sports Medicine. According to the President’s Council on Fitness, Sports and Nutrition (PCFSN), students who performed five hours of physical activity each week improved their academic (学业的) performance. Students from programs with no physical activity, who used the extra time for classroom study, did not perform better on tests than those who gave up some study time in support of physical education. 53.According to paragraph 2, what does physical education in high school mean? A.Helping teens learn to make good plans. B.Making teens think much of exercise later. C.Removing the stress faced by teens at school. D.Getting teens to encourage adults to exercise. 54.What does the underlined word “hindered” in paragraph 5 mean? A.Measured. B.Prevented. C.Shown. D.Caused. 55.According to the PCFSN, doing sports ________. A.helps students do better in their studies B.helps students make good use of all their time C.means students adjust to their environment better D.means making students choose between sports and studies 56.What is the text mainly about? A.How high school students can live a better life. B.How schools can help students love doing sports. C.Why physical education can relieve students’ stress. D.Why high school students should receive physical education. 【答案】53.B 54.B 55.A 56.D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了高中生为什么应该接受体育教育。 53.细节理解题。根据文章第二段中“But as is known to all, doing sports is very important for an adult. Teaching teens the importance of a healthy lifestyle and making fitness plans now can help teens put exercise in the first place as an adult. (但众所周知,做运动对成年人来说是非常重要的。教育青少年健康生活方式的重要性,制定健身计划,可以帮助青少年在成年后把锻炼放在首位)”可知,高中体育课可以帮助青少年重视以后的锻炼。故选B。 54.词句猜测题。根据划线词前“An active lifestyle offers a good way of protection from these health problems. As much as 75 percent of health-care spending goes toward treating medical conditions (积极的生活方式是避免这些健康问题的好方法。高达75%的医疗保健支出用于治疗疾病)”及空后“by lifestyle changes (通过生活方式的改变)”可知,积极的生活方式可以避免一些健康问题,故改变生活方式可以阻止疾病。hindered意为“阻碍,妨碍”。A. Measured测量,估量;B. Prevented阻止;C. Shown表明,显示;D. Caused导致。故选B。 55.细节理解题。根据文章最后一段中“According to the President’s Council on Fitness, Sports and Nutrition (PCFSN), students who performed five hours of physical activity each week improved their academic performance. (根据总统健身、运动和营养委员会(PCFSN)的数据,每周进行五小时体育活动的学生提高了他们的学习成绩)”可知,做运动意味着帮助学生在学习上做得更好。故选A。 56.主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是第一段“Physical education, or gym class, isn’t required for all high school students. In some schools, it isn’t offered for some different reasons. But should high school students have physical education? The answer is certainly “yes”(体育,或者说体育课,并非是所有高中生的必修课。在一些学校,由于种种不同原因甚至都不开设体育课。但是高中生应该上体育课吗?答案当然是“应该”)”可知,这篇文章主要介绍了高中生为什么应该接受体育教育。故选D。 Passage 15 (24-25高一上·江苏扬州·期中)How would you survive without your smartphone? For many of us, it’s the device we’re most attracted to — looking at it hundreds of times a day. We depend on it to perform different tasks and to connect with our friends and family. But have we become addicted to our phones? Certainly, the inventor of the first mobile phone, American engineer Martin Cooper, thinks we might be. In a BBC interview, he suggested people should stop scrolling (刷屏) and “get a life”. But of course, once we start scrolling or watching videos, we just can’t kick the habit. Psychologist and author Jean Twenge says, “we’re all guilty of habitually checking our phones if waiting for a text or getting really into social media then kind of, looking up and realizing that an hour has passed.” There’s even a word — a phubber — to describe a person who ignores the real people around them because they are concentrating on their phones. But does it matter if we make the most of this technology? Possibly, because like a drug, the problem arises when it is taken away. A study from King’s College London found young people they studied couldn’t control the amount of time they spent on their phone. Such addictive behavior means that people become anxious or upset when they are refused constant access, which can cause anxiety and mental health issues. Interestingly, another study by the London School of Economics and Political Science suggests we don’t just look at our phones because we are encouraged by a text or e-mail. The people they studied felt natural to interact with their phones, just as a smoker would light a cigarette. Prof, Saadi Lahlou, co-author of the study, told the BBC “We must learn tricks to avoid the temptation (诱惑) when we want to concentrate or have good social relations.” One solution could be an app that rewards students for time spent away from their phones. Another choice is changing your smartphone to an ordinary phone that has none of the distractions (分心事) on it. But mainly, perhaps, we just need to look up more and reconnect with the real world! 57.What did Martin Cooper suggest people do? A.Enjoy life by stopping the habit of scrolling. B.Learn tricks to avoid the temptation. C.Change their smartphones to ordinary phones. D.Use an app that rewards them for less phone use. 58.Why do people feel ashamed after checking their phones? A.For not being productive enough. B.For missing important texts or calls. C.For not being able to connect with others. D.For using their phones for a long time. 59.What does the study from King’s College London imply? A.The young shouldn’t use their phones. B.Curing phone addiction is not an easy job. C.Young people can’t survive without phones D.Using phones leads the young to be anxious. 60.What is the main message of the text? A.Smartphones are essential for modern life. B.People should avoid their addiction to smart phones. C.The inventor of the mobile phone should be punished D.Smartphones have a certain impact on mental health. 【答案】57.A 58.D 59.D 60.B 【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章主要探讨了现代人对智能手机的依赖及其潜在的负面影响,旨在提醒读者注意智能手机成瘾的危害,并倡导合理使用手机,保持健康的生活方式。 57.细节理解题。根据第二段中的“In a BBC interview, he suggested people should stop scrolling (刷屏) and “get a life”. (在BBC采访中,他建议人们应该停止刷屏,去“享受生活”)”可知,Martin Cooper建议人们通过停止刷屏的习惯来享受生活。故选A项。 58.细节理解题。根据第二段中“But of course, once we start scrolling or watching videos, we just can’t kick the habit Psychologist and author Jean Twenge says, “we’re all guilty of habitually checking our phones if waiting for a text or getting really into social media then kind of, looking up and realizing that an hour has passed.” (当然,一旦我们开始刷屏或看视频,我们就无法改掉这个习惯了。心理学家兼作家吉恩·特温格说:“如果我们在等短信或沉迷社交媒体时习惯性地查看手机,然后抬头一看,发现已经过去了一个小时,我们都会感到内疚。”)”可知,人们在长时间使用手机后会感到羞愧,因为他们意识到自己浪费了大量时间。故选D项。 59.细节理解题。根据第三段中的“A study from King’s College London found young people they studied couldn’t control the amount of time they spent on their phone. Such addictive behavior means that people become anxious or upset when they are refused constant access, which can cause anxiety and mental health issues. (伦敦国王学院的一项研究发现,他们研究的年轻人无法控制花在手机上的时间。这种成瘾行为意味着,当被拒绝持续使用手机时,人们会变得焦虑或不安,这可能导致焦虑和心理健康问题)”可知,这项研究暗示使用手机会让年轻人感到焦虑。故选D项。 60.主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是根据第一段“How would you survive without your smartphone? For many of us, it’s the device we’re most attracted to — looking at it hundreds of times a day, We depend on it to perform different tasks and to connect with our friends and family, But have we become addicted to our phones? (如果没有智能手机,你会怎么生活?对我们中的许多人来说,它是最吸引我们的设备——每天看它几百次。我们依靠它来完成不同的任务,并与我们的朋友和家人联系。但是我们已经对手机上瘾了吗?)”及最后一段“ One solution could be an app that rewards students for time spent away from their phones. Another choice is changing your smartphone to an ordinary phone that has none of the distractions (分心事) on it. But mainly, perhaps, we just need to look up more and reconnect with the real world!(一种解决方案可能是开发一款应用程序,奖励学生远离手机的时间。另一个选择是把你的智能手机换成一部没有任何干扰的普通手机。但最重要的是,也许,我们只需要多看看,重新与现实世界联系起来!)”可知,文章主要传达的信息是人们应该避免对智能手机的上瘾。故选B项。 Passage 16 (24-25高一上·河南郑州·期中)Like most nerds (电脑迷) who read science fiction, I’ve kept wondering how society will greet true artificial intelligence, if and when it arrives. Will we panic? Ignore it and go about our daily lives? Therefore, it’s been fascinating to go online to try to make sense of ChatGPT, a new cutting-edge A.I. chatbot (聊天机器人) opened for testing at the end of 2022. In five days, more than a million people signed up to test it. In recent years, though a few A.I. tools have gotten good at doing narrow and well-defined tasks, like writing marketing copy, they still tend to be weak when taken outside their comfort zones. But ChatGPT feels different. It is smarter and more flexible. It can write jokes and college-level essays. It can also guess at medical diagnoses, and even seems good at answering the types of open-ended analytical questions which frequently appear on school assignments. The technology that powers ChatGPT isn’t, strictly speaking, new. It’s based on what the company calls“GPT-3.5”, an upgraded version of GPT-3 in 2020. While the existence of a highly capable linguistic superbrain might be old news to A.I. researchers, it’s the first time such a powerful tool has been made available to   the general public through a free, easy-to-use web interface. Unlike Google, ChatGPT doesn’t explore the Internet for information on current events, and its knowledge is restricted to things it learned before 2021. Since ChatGPT training data includes billions of examples of human opinion, representing every reasonable view, it’s also, in some sense, moderate by design. Without specific instructions, for example, it’s hard to coax (诱导) a strong opinion out of ChatGPT about political debates. Usually, you’ll get a fair summary of what each side believes. 61.How did the public respond to ChatGPT at first? A.People worried about this new technology. B.Many people found it hard to understand ChatGPT. C.A number of people couldn’t wait to register for a try. D.Millions of people were ignorant of this new A.I. chatbot. 62.What can we learn from paragraph 2? A.Homework might not be a problem for ChatGPT users. B.ChatGPT is a typical A.I. tool used for specified tasks. C.ChatGPT helps doctors with serious medical diagnoses. D.A.I. apps can’t provide perfect answers to analytical questions. 63.In which aspect is ChatGPT different from the GPT-3? A.Linguistic researchers speak highly of it. B.People can use it free of charge. C.It is welcomed by A.I. researchers with enthusiasm. D.It is the first powerful tool open to the general public. 64.What’s the text mainly about? A.The future of ChatGPT. B.The brilliance of ChatGPT. C.The development of ChatGPT. D.The arguments about ChatGPT. 【答案】61.C 62.A 63.B 64.B 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了ChatGPT是很智能的。 61.推理判断题。根据第一段中“Therefore, it’s been fascinating to go online to try to make sense of ChatGPT, a new cutting-edge A. I. chatbot (聊天机器人) opened for testing at the end of 2022. In five days, more than a million people signed up to test it.(因此,在2022年底开放测试的尖端人工智能聊天机器人ChatGPT的网上体验非常有趣。五天之内,超过一百万人注册测试。)”可知,公众对ChatGPT最初的反应是,许多人迫不及待地想要注册试一试。故选C项。 62.推理判断题。根据第二段中“It can write jokes and college-level essays. It can also guess at medical diagnoses, and even seems good at answering the types of open-ended analytical questions which frequently appear on school assignments.(它可以写笑话和大学水平的论文。它还可以猜测医学诊断,甚至似乎很擅长回答学校作业中经常出现的开放式分析问题。)”可知,对于ChatGPT用户来说,家庭作业可能不是问题。故选A项。 63.细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“The technology that powers ChatGPT isn’t, strictly speaking, new. It’s based on what the company calls“GPT-3.5”, an upgraded version of GPT-3 in 2020. While the existence of a highly capable linguistic superbrain might be old news to A. I. researchers, it’s the first time such a powerful tool has been made available to   the general public through a free, easy-to-use web interface.(严格来说,支持ChatGPT的技术并不新鲜。它基于该公司所谓的“GPT-3.5”,这是2020年GPT-3的升级版本。虽然对于人工智能研究人员来说,一个能力强大的语言超级大脑的存在可能已经不是什么新闻了,但这是第一次通过一个免费、易用的网络界面向公众提供如此强大的工具。)”可知,ChatGPT 与GPT-3的不同之处在于,人们可以免费使用ChatGPT。故选B项。 64.主旨大意题。通读全文可知,文章第一段提出ChatGPT发布后很受人们欢迎;第二段指出ChatGPT与一些人工智能的不同之处在于ChatGPT更智能,更灵活;第三段指出ChatGPT相比于GPT-3的优点;第四段指出ChatGPI相比于Google的优点。由此可知,文章主要介绍了ChatGPT的智慧之处。故选B项。 Passage 17 (24-25高一上·山东烟台·期中)A grandfather named Paul Hocheder has decided to keep his mind moving with a full college experience at 90 years old. Paul already earned one degree in 1960, when he graduated from the University of Maryland after working seven years. But he decided it would help make him awake and alive if he went back for another round. So he signed up for classes at Maryland’s Carroll Community College. Paul is currently interested in a history major (专业) because he began his first semester with classes that explored the causes of both World Wars, and he took an interest in learning those opinions from generations that never saw the conflicts (冲突). “We talk and share each other’s views, which makes me feel young again,” he said in a video. “Coming to school with all the young people counts for me and I have something to look forward to instead of sitting around and doing nothing.” Paul’s positive attitude towards learning and his new college life was truly encouraging. His granddaughter, Gabby, posted his return to campus on her networking sites. “I thought it would be funny if we took a video of him walking into school for the first time,” she said in a video. “When I woke up the next day, there were 500,000 views.” So Gabby kept posting updates, and people kept watching. The most watched video had over 4 million views. Gabby said she knew her grandfather would be a hit on networking sites because he’s a very funny guy. But more importantly, she’s so proud of him for continuing to learn and explore well into his golden years. Gabby is now finishing her first college degree, and she thanks him for pushing her to be the best version of herself. “You’ve always been an advocate (倡导者) for education,” she told him. “And that has pushed me.” 65.For what purpose did Paul Hocheder go back to college? A.To keep his brain active. B.To become an online star. C.To show the importance of knowledge. D.To set an example to his granddaughter. 66.What can be learned about Paul’s history classes? A.They can improve his memory. B.They’re far from his expectations. C.They connect Paul with the young people. D.They bring arguments between Paul and classmates. 67.What do the numbers in paragraph 4 illustrate? A.Paul performed quite well at school. B.Paul won wide attention from the public. C.Paul encouraged further study of the old. D.Paul made many friends by posting online. 68.What impact does Paul’s decision have on Gabby? A.It causes her to change her major. B.It drives her to seek more recognition. C.It gets her to question traditional education. D.It inspires her to continue progressing in her studies. 【答案】65.A 66.C 67.B 68.D 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了90岁的保罗·霍赫德为了让自己的大脑保持活跃,重新回到大学学习,并通过孙女在社交网络上的发布赢得了广泛关注,对孙女及其他年轻人产生了积极的影响。 65.细节理解题。根据文章第二段“But he decided it would help make him awake and alive if he went back for another round(但他认为如果他再回到大学,会帮助他保持清醒和活力)”可知,保罗·霍赫德重返大学是为了保持他的头脑活跃。故选A。 66.细节理解题。根据文章第三段“We talk and share each other’s views, which makes me feel young again(我们交谈并分享彼此的观点,这让我感到年轻)”可知,与年轻人交流分享观点可以让保罗与年轻人建立联系。故选C。 67.推理判断题。根据文章第四段““When I woke up the next day, there were 500,000 views.” So Gabby kept posting updates, and people kept watching. The most watched video had over 4 million views.(“当我第二天醒来时,已经有50万的浏览量了。”所以加比一直在更新,人们也一直在看。观看次数最多的视频超过了400万次)可知,这些数字表明保罗赢得了公众的广泛关注。故选B。 68.推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Gabby is now finishing her first college degree, and she thanks him for pushing her to be the best version of herself. “You’ve always been an advocate (倡导者) for education,” she told him. “And that has pushed me.(Gabby现在完成了她的第一个大学学位,她感谢他推动她成为最好的自己。“你一直是教育的倡导者,”她对他说。“这推动了我”)可知,保罗的决定激励了Gabby在学习中不断进步。故选D。 Passage 18 (24-25高一上·山西阳泉·期中)With the help of new devices on mice, scientists are using light to turn nerve cells (神经细胞) on and off in mice’s brains to explore the animals’ social behavior, a new study shows. The new devices depend on optogenetics (光遗传学), a technique in which researchers use burst of light to stimulate or control the brain nerve cells, often using designed viruses to genetically (基因地) correct cells so they respond to light. Scientists have applied optogenetics to explore neural circuits (神经回路) in mice and other lab animals to come to a conclusion on how they might work in humans. Optogenetic devices often bring light to neurons by fiber-optic cables (光缆), but such things can influence natural behaviors and social interactions. These new fully implantable (可植入的) optogenetic devices can enable more complex research. Specifically, the researchers can adjust each device’s programming during the process of experiment. “So you can target what an animal does in a much more complex way,” says Genia Kozorovitskiy, a researcher at Northwestern University. These devices are battery-free, wirelessly powered by the same high-frequency radio waves used to control the kinds, duration and timing of the light pulses (光脉冲). The devices also allow scientists to control four different neural circuits in an animal simultaneously, thanks to LEDs that give out four colors — blue, green, yellow and red — instead of just one. The widely available wireless technology used in this work, the same now used in contactless payment with credit cards, could allow broad applications across the neuroscience community “without huge specialized hardware”, says Philipp Gutruf at the University of Arizona. “That means that we might see these devices in many labs in the near future, enabling new discoveries.” 69.What’s scientists’ purpose of using optogenetics? A.To control humans’ brain nerve cells. B.To explain humans’ social interactions. C.To figure out how neural circuits may affect humans. D.To correct designed viruses entering human bodies. 70.What does the underlined word “simultaneously” in Paragraph 4 mean? A.Once in a while. B.At the same time. C.By ones and twos. D.On a regular basis. 71.What can we infer from Philipp Gutruf’s words? A.The function of wireless technology. B.The promising future of the devices. C.The old applications of the devices. D.The development of wireless technology. 72.Which can be the best title for the text? A.Scientists Can Kill Mice with New Devices B.Scientists Control Humans’ Social Interactions with Light C.Scientists Control Social Behavior of Mice with New Devices D.Scientists Can Record Human’s Neural Circuits with Light 【答案】69.C 70.B 71.B 72.C 【导语】本文是说明文。文章主要讲述科学家研发了一种新型装置,它可以远程控制老鼠的社会行为。 69.细节理解题。根据第二段的“Scientists have applied optogenetics to explore neural(神经的) circuits in mice and other lab animals to come to a conclusion on how they might work in humans.(科学家已经应用光遗传学来探索老鼠和其他实验室动物的神经回路,从而得出它们可能在人类身上起作用的结论)”可知,科学家使用光遗传技术是为了弄清楚神经回路是如何影响人类的。故选C。 70.词句猜测题。根据第四段的“The devices also allow scientists to control four different neural circuits in an animal simultaneously, thanks to LEDs that give out four colors — blue, green, yellow and red — instead of just one.(这种设备还可以让科学家simultaneously控制动物的四个不同的神经回路,这要归功于发光二极管,它可以发出四种颜色——蓝色、绿色、黄色和红色——而不是一种颜色)”可知,发光二极管可以发出四种颜色可知,这四个不同神经回路是同时被控制的,所以simultaneously意为“同时地”和B选项“At the same time”意思一致。故选B。 71.推理判断题。根据最后一段的““without huge specialized hardware”, says Philipp Gutruf at the University of Arizona. “That means that we might see these devices in many labs in the near future, enabling new discoveries.”(亚利桑那大学的菲利普·古特鲁夫说,“无需巨大的专业硬件。这意味着我们可能在不久的将来,在许多实验室看到这些设备,从而有新的发现。”)”可知,Philipp Gutruf说的话告诉了我们这种新型装置的发展前景。故选B。 72.主旨大意题。根据第一段“With the help of new devices on mice, scientists are using light to switch nerve cells on and off in mice’s brains to explore the animals’ social behavior, a new study shows.(一项新的研究表明,在老鼠身上的新装置的帮助下,科学家们正在利用光来开关老鼠大脑中的神经细胞,以探索老鼠的社会行为)”可知,本文讲述科学家研发了一种新型装置,它可以远程控制老鼠的社会行为,C项(科学家们用新的设备来控制老鼠的社会行为)为最佳标题。故选C。 Passage 19 (24-25高一上·浙江衢州·期中)It’s fun to sing in the car. In a recent study, 64% of drivers said listening to music makes the driving experience better. But 54% of people said driving is less fun if they have to listen to music they don’t like. So what happens when passengers have different musical tastes than the driver does and they want to choose what to play? Many people think passengers should get a say because they also have to listen to whatever is playing. But others say the driver’s preference counts most. What do you think? Should the driver choose the car tunes? Yes - it’s an extra advantage of the job. The driver is taking the passengers where they need to go, so they should have the right to choose the tunes. They shouldn’t have to listen to something they don’t like, especially on long trips. Drivers also know what music helps them stay calm and focused, while passengers could choose music that annoys the driver. Safety isn’t a concern because the driver can set a playlist before they head out. And if the rule is that the driver always decides, there’s less chance of disagreement over what to play. No - it’s not fair or safe. The driver should be fully focused on the road, not thinking about what song to listen to next or scrolling through a playlist. Passengers, however, have their hands free, so it’s safe for them to search for and select the music. Besides, it’s not fair that only the person behind the wheel gets to choose what to listen to. Long car trips can be boring, especially for kids. If they get to pick the music they want to hear, they will have more fun and won’t fight as much. To make things better, passengers can take music requests from the driver and others in the car. That way, everyone gets a chance to share the music they love. 73.Why is it considered “an extra advantage” for the driver to choose the music? A.It makes sure of no disagreements during the trip. B.It gives the driver more rights on the car-environment. C.It makes the driver feel more important than the passengers. D.It allows the driver to create a more enjoyable driving experience. 74.What is the author’s attitude towards the choice of music? A.Objective. B.Supportive. C.Doubtful. D.Fearful. 75.What is advised to make choosing music easier in paragraph 3? A.The driver should have the final say. B.Requests from both sides are considered together. C.Only the children in the car should choose the music. D.Passengers give a music playlist to the driver before the trip. 76.How does the author develop the passage? A.By exploring views on car music choice. B.By giving facts about music and driving. C.By sharing stories about driving experiences. D.By using examples to show why music matters. 【答案】73.D 74.A 75.B 76.A 【导语】这是一篇议论文。主要介绍了在最近的一项研究中,64%的司机说听音乐能让驾驶体验更好。但54%的人表示,如果他们不得不听自己不喜欢的音乐,开车就不那么有趣了。那么,当乘客和司机的音乐品味不同,他们想要选择播放的音乐时,会发生什么呢?文章通过探索人们对汽车音乐选择的看法来发展,例如司机选择音乐的优势和乘客选择音乐的合理性。 73.细节理解题。根据第二段中“Yes - it’s an extra advantage of the job.  The driver is taking the passengers where they need to go, so they should have the right to choose the tunes. They shouldn’t have to listen to something they don’t like, especially on long trips. Drivers also know what music helps them stay calm and focused, while passengers could choose music that annoys the driver. (是的,这是这份工作的额外好处。司机把乘客带到他们需要去的地方,所以他们应该有选择音乐的权利。他们不应该听自己不喜欢的东西,尤其是在长途旅行中。司机也知道什么音乐能帮助他们保持冷静和专注,而乘客可能会选择让司机烦恼的音乐。)”可知,司机选择音乐会被认为是“额外的好处”是因为它可以让司机创造一个更愉快的驾驶体验。故选D项。 74.推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Besides, it’s not fair that only the person behind the wheel gets to choose what to listen to. Long car trips can be boring, especially for kids. If they get to pick the music they want to hear, they will have more fun and won’t fight as much. To make things better, passengers can take music requests from the driver and others in the car. That way, everyone gets a chance to share the music they love. ( 此外,只有开车的人才能选择听什么,这是不公平的。长途汽车旅行可能很无聊,尤其是对孩子们来说。如果他们可以选择他们想听的音乐,他们会有更多的乐趣,也不会经常吵架。为了让事情变得更好,乘客可以接受司机和车内其他人的音乐要求。这样,每个人都有机会分享他们喜欢的音乐。)”可推知,作者对音乐的选择持客观的态度。故选A项。 75.细节理解题。根据最后一段中“To make things better, passengers can take music requests from the driver and others in the car. That way, everyone gets a chance to share the music they love. (为了让事情变得更好,乘客可以接受司机和车内其他人的音乐要求。这样,每个人都有机会分享他们喜欢的音乐。)”可知,在第三段中建议双方的要求将一并考虑会使选择音乐更容易。故选B项。 76.推理判断题。根据第一段中“It’s fun to sing in the car. In a recent study, 64% of drivers said listening to music makes the driving experience better. But 54% of people said driving is less fun if they have to listen to music they don’t like. So what happens when passengers have different musical tastes than the driver does and they want to choose what to play? ( 在车里唱歌很有趣。在最近的一项研究中,64%的司机说听音乐能让驾驶体验更好。但54%的人表示,如果他们不得不听自己不喜欢的音乐,开车就不那么有趣了。那么,当乘客和司机的音乐品味不同,他们想要选择播放的音乐时,会发生什么呢?)”可推知,作者是通过探索人们对汽车音乐选择的看法来展开文章的,例如司机选择音乐的优势和乘客选择音乐的合理性。故选A项。Passage 20 (24-25高一上·湖北孝感·期中)For most football-mad parents, taking their child to a game is something they’ve always dreamed of. But for others, it seems impossible. Glenn Faircloth’s son Freddie, 11, was diagnosed with autism (孤独症) aged three. He dislikes noisy environments but Glenn was determined to try and share his love for football with his son. “We tried going to the football match a couple of times but he didn’t like it. There were obviously a lot of people in a confined space and it can be really noisy, so we ended up leaving before the end. It prevented me from going again as I didn’t want to put him through that experience again,” said Glenn. That was when Glenn found out about Brentford’s sensory (感官) room in west London. The room accommodates up to four families per game and is designed to provide a safe experience for them to watch their beloved Bees. Sally Stephens, Brentford’s Fan and Community Relations Director, said: “The idea behind it is to provide a comfortable and friendly environment for children and adults with sensory processing issues. They get the full game experience with the volume turned down. They can still enjoy everything that’s going on with one of the best views in the stadium.” Brentford sought advice from charities and other organizations when designing the room. It features a sofa and bean bags to allow the audience flexibly (灵活地) to move around, and has a dark pop-up tent in one corner if anyone wants to take some time out. The thick glass blocks out the crowd noise and there is an accessible toilet. Glenn, who documents his son’s progress, added: “Going to a match was stressful before — now he is actually excited about going to a game. It’s a different ball game. It’s amazing being able to take him to the football match and share that experience with him and have that father and son bonding time. He can still attend something he loves even though he’s different.” 77.What’s the challenge for Freddie watching a football game? A.He has no interest in football. B.There are crowded environments. C.He doesn’t have tickets for the games. D.The game schedules are inconvenient. 78.Which feature of the sensory room best meets Freddie’s needs? A.Presence of a professional doctor. B.A space in a dark pop-up tent. C.Soundproof glass to reduce noise. D.Several flexible seating choices. 79.How did Glenn Faircloth describe the influence of the sensory room? A.By giving advice to special children. B.By listing the advantages of the sensory room. C.By showing love between his son and himself. D.By describing the different feelings of Freddie. 80.What’s the best title for the text? A.Going to a football match with his father. B.The strong connection between father and son. C.The popularity of football among autism children. D.A sensory room giving a special boy full experience. 【答案】77.B 78.C 79.D 80.D 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了孤独症患儿Freddie在父亲Glenn的带领下,借助Brentford俱乐部设立的感官室,成功克服了观看足球比赛的挑战,享受到了完整的观赛体验,并加深了父子之间的情感联系。 77.细节理解题。根据第一段中“Glenn Faircloth’s son Freddie, 11, was diagnosed with autism (孤独症) aged three. He dislikes noisy environments (Glenn Faircloth 11岁的儿子Freddie在3岁时被诊断出患有自闭症。他不喜欢嘈杂的环境)”和第二段中“We tried going to the football match a couple of times but he didn’t like it. There were obviously a lot of people in a confined space and it can be really noisy, so we ended up leaving before the end. (我们试着去看了几次足球比赛,但他不喜欢。显然,在一个狭小的空间里有很多人,而且可能会很吵,所以我们最后提前离开了)”可知,对于Freddie来说,观看足球比赛的挑战在于人多嘈杂的环境。故选B项。 78.细节理解题。根据第一段中“He dislikes noisy environments (他不喜欢嘈杂的环境)”和第五段中“The thick glass blocks out the crowd noise (厚厚的玻璃挡住了人群的噪音)”可知,感官室中隔音的玻璃可以减少噪音,这一功能满足了Freddie的需求。故选C项。 79.细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Going to a match was stressful before — now he is actually excited about going to a game. It’s a different ball game. It’s amazing being able to take him to the football match and share that experience with him and have that father and son bonding time. (以前去看比赛很有压力,现在他真的很期待去看比赛。这是完全不同的体验。能够带他去看足球比赛,和他分享这种经历,并有这种父子共度的时光,真是太棒了)”可知,Glenn Faircloth通过描述Freddie在感官室前后的不同感受,来阐述感官室的影响。故选D项。 80.主旨大意题。通读全文,结合第一段中“Glenn Faircloth’s son Freddie, 11, was diagnosed with autism (孤独症) aged three. He dislikes noisy environments but Glenn was determined to try and share his love for football with his son. (Glenn Faircloth11岁的儿子Freddie在三岁时被诊断出患有孤独症。他不喜欢嘈杂的环境,但Glenn决心尝试和儿子分享他对足球的热爱)”和文章主要讲述了孤独症患儿Freddie如何借助感官室成功观看足球比赛并享受其中的故事,可知D项“A sensory room giving a special boy full experience.(一个感官室给一个特殊男孩完整的体验)”最符合文章主旨,是最佳标题。故选D项。 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 学科网(北京)股份有限公司 $$
