Ⅰ.阅读理解(每小题2.5分,共20分)
A
(2024·山东省青岛市高二上期末)
I was driving when my phone alerted me to a new email.Filled with eager anticipation,I pulled over,turned on my hazard lights,and opened it.My emotions quickly changed as I learned,for the sixth and final time,that I had been denied a promotion to full professor.My institution didn’t seem to value what I brought to the table.But when I told my family that night,my children offered a surprisingly positive response.They were excited to see what I was going to do next,they said.They apparently knew long before I did that losing my bid for a promotion would turn out to be the best thing that could have happened for me.
This had been the final step in a long process spanning 15 months and involving so much effort.I had started by studying successful promotion bids and asking senior scholars for frank discussions about my readiness.I had carefully prepared my application packet,summarizing everything I had achieved in my career.For more than a year,I had spent hours every day trying to prove my worth to my university.
To my surprise,having a final answer brought a welcome sense of closure.As a first step toward healing,I decided to prioritize my own values and follow my own internal compass.I disconnected from people in my life who violated my values,cultivated my relationships with those who share my priorities and bring out the best in me,and spent more time with my family.I
founded a nonprofit that helps first-generation and low-income students and young professionals advance in the workforce while serving their community. The initiative had long been a dream of mine,but I never pursued it because typical academic hiring and promotion don’t reward such efforts.Now,such considerations were no longer my North Star.
Five months after that email from top leadership,I found myself in the car again,experiencing another career-defining moment.I may have lost my bid for a big promotion,but in the end,it brought me to the right place.

(2024·河北省邯郸市高二上期末)
Emile and the Field is the story of a little boy who spends every season playing in a field by his house,whispering to the trees or playing in the leaves.
Kevin Young,the author of the book,originally wrote Emile and the Field years ago as a bedtime poem for his son.Young’s son is a teenager now—and too old for bedtime stories—but this poem about Emile lives on,now as a children’s book illustrated by Chioma Ebinama,a fine artist living in Greece.
Ebinama wanted to reflect Emile’s love for nature,so she used a sort of romantic palette (调色板) of pinks,blues and sunny yellows.She hand-painted the illustrations in watercolor.
For inspiration,Ebinama says she drew from a variety of influences.One scene,where Emile and his father hold hands and walk through the snow-covered field,reminds us of Snowy Day,Keats’ 1962 children’s book about Peter,an African American boy who explores his neighborhood after the season’s first snowfall.
And—as in Snowy Day—Ebinama drew the little boy in Emile and the Field as a black child.Even though the author and the illustrator never discussed it clearly,Young says the fact of Emile’s blackness was very important to him. The winter scenes were actually the most challenging.Obviously it’s winter so it’s mostly white.
Emile and the Field is a family story for both the author and the illustrator. Ebinama,for example,drew her dog,Luna,into the story as the little dog that follows Emile around.Even though there is no dog in Young’s original poem,Luna came in very handy.
There was a kind of family quality to the book for Young.He named the main character of his poem after his great-grandfather,Emile,a farmer who lived to be 103 years old.He says the story reminds him of running around his family’s fields as a kid in Louisiana.
“There’s nothing better than being read to or reading to someone,” Young says.“It really connects you to this long story-telling tradition.”
语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了《埃米尔与田野》这本书创作的背景、灵感来源以及作者对这本书的看法。

5.Why did Young write Emile and the Field at first?
A.To satisfy his love for nature.
B.To read it as a bedtime poem.

√

How to Practice Gratitude (感激) in Your Daily Life
Gratitude is a positive emotion.Learning how to practice it is an effort to remind yourself of the good in life and to show an internal appreciation for yourself and others. 1 .Whichever exercise you do,it’s vital to remember the elements of gratitude:the awareness of the good things,expressing gratitude to yourself and giving thanks to people you’re grateful for.
Create a gratitude list.The intense stress of life can get you so caught up that we may fail to recognize the positive events or interactions we encounter on a daily basis. 2 .It can also help you picture the biggest and smallest moments that make your day.
3 .Expressing your gratitude to those you’re grateful for strengthens your relationship with them.Plus,bonding with family and friends is a simple act that can help you feel gratitude for these relationships.Sharing kindness will make you feel happier and healthier.In turn,those benefits get passed along to those you most care about.
Make a gratitude jar (罐).Make the jar fun and personable by decorating it and placing it where you can always see it.Every day,write down what you’re grateful for on a slip of paper and put it in the jar. 4 . Whenever there’s a moment of doubt or sadness,return to the jar and read a few notes to remind yourself of who and what is good in your life.
In conclusion,engaging in daily gratitude exercises can make a great difference.Showing gratitude helps you connect with positive emotions,focus on acknowledging the good,and shift your focus to positive aspects of life. 5 .
A.Share your gratitude with others
B.Seek out opportunities to help others
C.There are several gratitude activities and exercises
D.As you fill it,it serves as a good reminder of good times
