四、(福建省2024-2025学年高三上学期11月期中英语试题)阅读理解
This summer, I marked what some call a “milestone birthday”. My approach to birthdays is usually twofold: fear them in advance and bear them in the moment. But this year, I decided to confront my birthday directly instead of tolerating it awkwardly. Rather than wait to receive cards and gifts, why not celebrate my birthday by giving presents to others? Maybe turning tradition upside down would assuage my discomfort.
Science was on my side. Studies have found that spending money on others makes us happier than spending money on ourselves. “We observe this all over the world, even in places where people are struggling to meet their own basic needs. Charitable contributions activate the reward centres of our brain that spark for delights such as music and food,” Elizabeth Dunn, a University of British Columbia psychology professor told me.
Armed with these studies, I began planning my experiment. The gift had to be small enough to mail in an envelope and meaningful enough to touch hearts. I decided on pencils. I located a vendor(商贩)in Central California who could customize pencils. I ordered them in pink to honour my last name. And I engraved(雕刻)them with three messages about pencils that double as messages about life: Stay sharp. Get to the point. Erasing is creating.
With my wife, I turned our kitchen table into a fulfillment centre. We printed labels, slid three pencils into a sleeve and each sleeve into an envelope. Then, in two walks to our neighbourhood post office, we sent 98 gifts out to the world.
A few days later,I got texts and emails from the pencil recipients(收件者).I heard from about three-fourths of them that they like the gift. Several people sent photos of their new pink pencils along with thanks or birthday wishes. A few told me how touched they were that I thought of them. One person texted fire and heart emojis.
This exercise deepened my sense of gratitude and connection. For a few moments, I forgot I was turning-okay, I'll say the number now-60.
1. What does the underlined word “assuage” in Paragraph 1 mean?
A. Ease. B. Cause. C. Hide. D. Express.
2. What can we learn from Elizabeth Dunn's words in Paragraph 2?
A. People worldwide observe birthdays. B. Giving offers people more pleasure.
C. Material wealth generates charity. D. People in need are more likely to donate.
3. Why did the author tailor the pencils pink?
A. To entertain children. B. To make them striking.
C. To highlight the messages on them. D. To bear a mark of himself.
4. What's Paragraph 5 mainly about?
A. How the pencils were packed and sent. B. How the author's birthday was celebrated.
C. How people responded to the author's gift. D. How the author reflected on the experience.
【文章大意】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者在过60岁生日时,不等亲人朋友们赠送礼物,反而给他们赠送礼物的过程,并在其中收获了满足与感恩的故事。
1.【答案】A 【解析】词义猜测题。根据第一段中“Rather than wait to receive cards and gifts, why not celebrate my birthday by giving presents to others? Maybe turning tradition upside down would assuage my discomfort.”可知,作者想通过改变传统生日的过法来缓解上文提到的对过生日的不自在。所以此处assuage 指的是“缓解”。
2.【答案】B 【解析】推理判断题。根据第二段中“Studies have found that spending money on others makes us happier than spending money on ourselves.”以及“Charitable contributions activate the reward centres of our brain that spark for delights such as music and food”可知,Elizabeth Dunn认为给予能让人更加高兴。
3.【答案】D 【解析】推理判断题。根据第三段中“I ordered them in pink to honour my last name.”可知,作者把铅笔定制成粉色是为了和自己的姓氏一致,留下自己的印记。
4.【答案】C 【解析】主旨大意题。根据第五段可知,本段主要讲述收到礼物的人们给作者的反馈。
五、(辽宁省联合体2024-2025学年高三上学期11月期中)七选五
Humans have a need to share their beliefs and values with other people. 36 This has a solid logic;Sharing emotions and opinions can lead to imitation(模仿), which can in turn create unity and enhance relationships.
Besides creating a bond, another reason you might want someone to model themselves on your feelings is to get them to alter their views. 37 The choice will depend on the other person’s situation. If he/ she already agrees with you, then your negativity can raise the intensity of his/ her views.
38 Sometimes, people you are talking to don’t already think the way you do. They will simply judge your statement to be hyperbolic(浮夸的) and biased. And you won’t get them to imitate you at all. To an even greater degree, if they disagree with you, what you say will harden their values against yours. 39 When people are offended over the opinions they hold, they are much more likely to dig into their position against that of the speaker.
Imagine a person came to your house with a beautiful bunch of flowers. But when you opened the door, he/ she hit you with the flowers. 40
So, if you want to be more persuasive, consider the specific situations and share them more positively - in other words, turn your beliefs and values into a gift, rather than a weapon.
A. One size, however, won’t fit for all.
B. This is the so - called backfire effect.
C. All you would want is to get the person out of the way.
D. When you feel strongly about something, it’s hard not to talk about it.
E. This is essentially the result of using your flowers negatively as weapons.
F. To achieve the goal, you can outline your views either positively or negatively.
G. Positive emotions may be better at leading to imitation than negative emotions.
【答案】这是一篇说明文,文章主要讲述我们在试着说服他人时,有时会适得其反,试着用更加积极、委婉的语言风格不失为一个好方法。
36. D 上文 “Humans have a need to share their beliefs and values with other people.(人类需要与他人分享他们的信仰和价值观)”提到人类需要与他人分享自己的信仰和价值观,D项“当你对某事有强烈的感觉时,你很难不去谈论它”进一步阐述上文,说明文人们需要分享的原因,故选 D。
37. F上文 “Besides creating a bond, another reason you might want someone to model themselves on your feelings is to get them to alter their views.(除了建立联系之外,你可能希望别人以你的感受为榜样的另一个原因是让他们改变自己的观点)”提到人们分享的另一个原因——想让对方改变他们自己的观点,F项“为了达到这个目标,你可以用积极或消极的方式来表达你的观点”承接上文,F项中 “the goal”指代上文的 “to get them to alter their views”,故选 F。
38. A上文提到分享是为了改变别人的观点,根据下文 “Sometimes, people you are talking to don’ t already think the way you do. They will simply judge your statement to be hyperbolic(浮夸的) and biased.(有时候,与你交谈的人并不像你那样思考问题。他们只会认为你的陈述是夸张和有偏见的)”可知,本段和上文是转折关系,A项“然而,一种尺寸不会适合所有人”符合语境,故选 A。
39. B 根据上文 “And you won’ t get them to imitate you at all. To an even greater degree, if they disagree with you, what you say will harden their values against yours.(你根本不会让他们模仿你。在更大程度上,如果他们不同意你的观点,你所说的话会使他们的价值观与你的价值观相抵触)”和下文 “When people are offended over the opinions they hold, they are much more likely to dig into their position against that of the speaker.(当人们觉得自己持有的观点被冒犯时,他们更有可能深入研究自己的立场,反对说话者的立场)”可知上下文都是在说你不仅无法改变别人的观点,反而会让别人更加坚持自己的观点,B项“这就叫适得其反”符合语境,故选 B。
40. E上文 “Imagine a person came to your house with a beautiful bunch of flowers. But when you opened the door, he/ she hit you with the flowers.(想象一下,一个人带着一束美丽的花来到你家。但是当你打开门时,他/她用花打你)”提到别人带着一束花来到你家,却用花打你,E项“这主要是由于将给你的花作为武器负面使用了”解释上述行为的原因,故选E。

【答案】
Dear Chris,
I was sorry to hear about your declining eyesight, which must have caused you a lot of distress. First of all, this situation is quite common in modern society, and there are many ways to help improve it.
I would like to analyze the possible reasons for your vision decline. Long hours of staring at computer screens, mobile phones and other electronic devices, insufficient lighting while reading, and poor eye-use habits may all be contributing factors. To help you improve your vision, I suggest you try the following methods. First, give your eyes a break regularly, look into the distance every now and then, and do some eye exercises. In addition, try to reduce the time you spend using computers and phones, or take breaks every now and then when you are using them.
If you feel that the situation is serious or my suggestions are not helpful, I suggest you see a doctor as soon as possible.
I wish you all the best!
Yours sincerely,
Li Jin

Welcome the audience:
Good morning, everybody. Welcome to our presentation.
Introduce the subject:
I’m very excited to have this opportunity to talk about one of my favourite pieces of art. It is called The Starry Night and was painted by Vincent van Gogh in 1889.
Introduction
Post-listening:
Background of the art of the work
First, let me tell you about the background to this painting. It shows the French town, Saint-Rémy-de-Provence at night. It is based on the view from a window in a hospital where Van Gogh was a patient. Sadly, he suffered from health issues throughout his life, and his work only found fame after his death. Although it shows the view at night, Van Gogh painted it during the day from memory. He also painted other versions at different times of day.

Description of the work of art
This is an oil painting on canvas. One can immediately tell from its features that it is a Van Gogh painting. For example, the swirls in the sky show Van Gogh’s distinctive painting style. The curled dashes of bold colour can be seen in many of his works. The moon and stars are big and yellow. This was Van Gogh’s favourite colour.
