寒假难点突破--2024-2025学年广东省高一英语
阅读理解练习之七选五
1、 七选五阅读解题方法
七选五阅读6大解题方略:
1.略读文章抓大意
以最快的速度跳跃式地浏览文章的大小标题、首段、每段的首句,以及表示句、段关系的连接性词语(特别是however,but 等后的内容)等重要部分,以了解文章的基本结构和内容大意。 事实上,-般只需花与5-10秒阅读大小标题和第-段首尾句即可。
2.重点阅读上下句
因为正确选项必定会与上下句之间语义衔接、逻辑通顺,解题时大多只看上句,或只看下句,就可基本确定答案。
事实上,如果没有时间来得及通读或细读,或者基础不够扎实即使读也读不懂,建议通过以下技巧,也基本上可以得满分
3.看看结构变轻松
在解题过程中,除了每做-道有把握的题后就在个选项中将其画掉缩小范围外,通过观察语言结构也可将选择范围大大缩小,心情变得更加聆松,一般可将7个选项缩小到2-4小选项,碰对的机率大大提高。
4.词语复现显神功
作者或说话人在谈论某个话题或主题时,与主题相关的词语必定会以原词、同义词或近义词等形式在上下文中重复出现,这种现象叫词语复现。
词语复现是语篇衔接的一个重要手段,而七选五正是考查语篇衔接,因此,利用词语复现解七选五十分管用。利用这一招可将选项缩小到2个选项的还有5道,也就是说,平均起来,几乎有一半的题仅用这一招就可解决。
5.代词逻辑亦管用
七选五就是考查上下文之间的衔接,而代词是语篇衔接的重要手段之一, 故解题中要善于利用这一衔接手段。根据空格句与上下句之间的逻辑关系来解题,如解释关系(对前句或对主题的进一步解释)、并列关系、转折关系、 因果关系、递进关系等。
6.篇章需要基本功
有的题利用文章或段落的“总一分”结构关系来解,也很管用,但需要以下基本功:懂得整篇文章的基本结构或段落的语篇结构通常是主题句(总)+支撑句
(分)(分述主题的具体内容/说明原因/举例证明等)。
七选五阅读10大解题技巧:
1.从细节逻辑上判断---因果关系
因果关系主要指前后的句子有着原因和结果之间的关系,这种关系往往说明了前因后果或者前果后因等情况。表示因果关系的连词有as a result结果, thus/therefore因此,so (such).如此-----以至于等。
2.从细节逻辑上判断---转折关系
转折关系主要指英语行文中后句对前句构成逆转逻辑关系。如果空格前后两句话之间是逻辑上的逆转,则空格处很有可能是个转折逻辑的句子。
3.从细节逻辑上判断---例证关系
前后句的某句是为了证明另一句而举的例子。例证的形式多样,但就其本质而言无非是思维上的形象(例子、类比等)和抽象(观点)的辩证关系, 用到的思维过程无非就是基本的归纳(从例子到观点)和推理(从观点到例子)。
4.从细节逻辑上判断---递进关系
递进关系主要指英语行文中后句对前句是一种顺承逻辑关系。如果空格前后两句话之间是逻辑上的层进关系,则空格处很有可能是个递进的句子。
5.从细节逻辑上判断---平列关系
6.从词汇线索上判断---代词
英语表达中的代词出现的频率极高,代词的作用是指代前面提及的名词或形容词概念,巧妙利用这样的指代关系和根据代词的单复数差异可以准确而快速地解题。
7.从词汇上判断---同义词/近义词
英语前言后语之间往往有同义词、近义词、近义表达语甚至相同词汇的重复使用,这是我们解题的一个很好的判断线索。
8.从词汇判断---上下义/同一范畴词
上下义词和同一范畴词就是前者包含了后者,或可以说后者是前者的一个子集。利用前后句中这样的特殊的同义关系常常可以很轻松地解题。
9. 从试题位置上判断---问题在段首
假如问题出现在段首,它通常是段落主题句。认真阅读后文内容,根据段落一致性原则,查找同义词或其他相关的词,推断出主题句。另外着重阅读后文第一两句,锁定线索信号词,然后在选项中查找相关特征词。
通常正确答案的最后一句与空白后的第一句在意思上是紧密衔接的,因此这两句间会有某种的衔接手段,尤其当选项是几句话时。
10.从试题位置上判断---问题在段尾
所选答案是引出下一段的内容。如果在选项中找不出与前文之间的关联,此时可考虑与下一段开头是否有一定的衔接。 如果第一段的段尾是空白,要认真阅读,看此处是细节还是主题。通常文章第一段要提出文章的主题,如果在段尾提出主题,会用一些信号词如转折词引出来,正确答案中应有这样的特征词。
段尾通常是结论、概括性语句。注意在选项中查找表示结果、结论、 总结等的信号词,如therefore,as a result, thus, hence, in short, to sum up,to conclude,in a word等词语,选项中也可发现前文的同义词句。

(24-25高一上·广东·期末)If you’re looking for ways to improve running, here are the best tips for getting better at running.
Stick to running. The key to getting better at running is to train frequently and consistently. Constant practice gives you time to perfect your form and commit it to muscle memory. 6 If you are experienced, try at least 5 days a week.
Set a comfortable pace. If you run too fast, you’ll feel out of breath and you might not want to finish your run. Instead, run slower than you need to. Pacing yourself can be one of the biggest challenges. 7
Warm up before and after you run. Before you start your workout, walk or jog slowly for 3 to 5 minutes to allow your muscles to get used to the activity. 8 After you reach your goal, walk or jog for 3 to 5 minutes to cool down, prevent blood from collecting in your legs, and allow your heart rate to decrease.
9 Combine other activities with your running routine to improve muscle endurance, build strength and keep you injury-free. Weight training, yoga and swimming are all good choices. You can include 1 to 2 hours of other training into your running volume.
Listen to your body and make adjustments. 10 Even small changes in your breathing can be a sign to slow down or speed up. Tightness, pain, and discomfort are all signs to slow down, change your form, or stop and recover.
A.Improve your running form.
B.Go on running 1 or 2 miles every day.
C.Add other exercise forms to your running routine.
D.Your body gives you important signs when running.

(24-25高一上·广东·期末)Four Habits of Highly Effective Students
The key to becoming an effective student is learning how to study smarter, not harder. 11 The following are the top four study habits used by highly successful students.
Don't attempt to cram (塞满) all your studying into one study period.
Do you frequently stay up late to complete your assignments or prepare for tomorrow's exams? 12 Successful students rarely try to complete all of their studying in just one or two study periods. You need to learn to have regular, yet shorter, study periods.
13
It's important you create a daily study routine. When you study at the same time each day and each week, your studying will become a regular part of your life. If you have to change your schedule from time to time due to unexpected events, that's okay. However, you'd better get back on your routine as soon as the event has passed.
Each study time should have a specific goal.
14 You need to know exactly what you need to achieve during each study period. Before you start studying, set a study period goal that supports your overall academic goal.
Never delay your planned study period.
It's very easy and common to put off your study period for lack of interest in the subject, or just because the task is hard. 15 If you do, your studying will become much less effective and you may not get everything completed.
We're confident that if you develop the habits above you'll see a big improvement in your study.
A.Study at the same time.
B.If so, it's time for a change.
C.Effective students usually study smart.
D.But successful students do not put off studying.
E.Simply studying without direction is not effective.
F.It would lead to a great number of mistakes you should have avoided.
G.Most successful students achieve success by developing effective study habits.

(24-25高一上·广东潮州·期末)Exercise benefits our physical health as well as helps to reduce anxiety and stress. Yet many Americans say exercise is not something they enjoy. So Health psychologist, Kelly McGonigal proposes how exercise helps us find happiness, hope and connection. 16
Take your workout on the road
17 “We know that mindful forms of movement, as well as moving outdoors in nature, tends to put the brain in a state of this heightened awareness to the present moment that feels like connection to life,” McGonigal said. “People often feel a relief from stress and worrying. It’s changing which systems of the brain are most active and putting you in a state like meditation (冥想).”
18
Queue up your favorite playlist and get moving. “If you’re doing a workout where you’re listening to music you love that’s high energy, you’re moving to the beat, and you’re doing things that really get your heart rate up.” she said. “And the brain chemistry also really helps you feel connected to other people.”
Join the group
Being social helps you exercise. “Make movement social. We know that people form friendships and communities of support through movement, whether it’s strength training or running.” McGonigal said. 19 “People who exercise, they report having better relationships with others and to be able to connect with others better.” McGonigal said.
Change your mindset to one of gratitude
While you are moving, find ways to appreciate your body for being able to move, as opposed to monitoring it. “ 20 or Thank you, body! for having the energy to let me do this.” McGonigal said.
That’s how these tips can help you gain a source of joy and hope. McGonigal hopes you can tap into joy through movement.
A.Turn on the music.
B.Head out into nature.
C.Also, joining the group get you to move.
D.Adopt a mindset switch of Wow, body!
E.Try exercise on the road to activate brain.
F.Exercise also helps you be more social.

(24-25高一上·广东肇庆·期末)Natural disasters can strike at any time, and schools are no exception. Here are some steps for students to take to survive when a natural disaster hits schools.
21 . Every student should have a personal emergency kit that includes essential items such as a flashlight, batteries, a first-aid kit, water, and non-perishable food. Keeping this kit at hand can ensure students are always prepared.
Practice regular drills. Regular disaster drills are just as important as fire drills. They help students learn what to do in real emergency situations. Schools should conduct such drills regularly to ensure that students know what to do when a real disaster occurs. 22 .
Identify safe areas. Knowing where safe zones are in the school can be a lifesaver. 23 . Examples include hallways, under desks, or designated shelter areas. These areas should be predetermined within the school and they can provide the best protection during different types of disasters.
Understand the risk types. 24 For example, coastal areas are more likely to experience hurricanes, and landslides are a threat in mountainous areas. Therefore, schools should teach students knowledge about the specific type of threat in their local area so that they can take appropriate action during a disaster.
Take action in different situations. Students should stay calm and take immediate action based on different situations. For example, during a tornado, they should move to the lowest floor of the building and take cover under stable furniture. 25 . Earthquakes require us to drop to the ground, take cover under a table, and hold on until the shake stops.
By following these steps, students can increase their chances of survival and minimize the impact.
A.Offer immediate care
B.Prepare an emergency kit
C.Different areas may face different types of natural disasters
D.In the event of a flood, students should move to higher grounds
E.After a disaster, schools should check on all students and staff
F.These drills will help students react quickly and minimize the risk
G.When a disaster hits, students should head to the nearest safe area quickly

(24-25高一上·广东江门·期末)How to Concentrate on Your Homework
Focusing on homework can be tough, especially when you’d rather do anything else. Maybe your attention keeps wandering back to your phone or you just want to take a nap. 26 . Here are some tips on how to concentrate on your homework.
Put away anything that might make it hard to concentrate. If you can’t stop looking at your phone, put it out of reach. 27 Close your computer or switch off your tablet unless you need them for your homework. Turn off the TV or any music that might make it hard for you to focus. If you find that it distracts you, turn it off.
28 Multitasking will actually make you less productive. If you’re doing your math homework, don’t try to listen to a video lecture about biology at the same time. You might feel like you’re getting more done, but it’ll actually slow you down! Wrap up one assignment before you move on to the next.
Study in a quiet, comfortable spot. Try to find a space with lots of light and room to spread out. If you can, choose an area where you won’t be bothered by lots of distractions, like a loud TV or noisy siblings. But be careful studying in your room — if you use a space where you usually sleep or relax, it’ll be hard to get into homework mode! 29
Reward yourself with something fun when you’re done. 30 For example, you could watch your favorite TV show, play a game you like, or call up a friend. When you treat yourself every time you get your work done, you might start looking forward to the work a little more!
A.Work on one assignment at a time.
B.Break your assignments into smaller tasks.
C.You could stick it in a desk drawer or inside your bag.
D.However, it’s a vital element in your academic journey.
E.Moreover, a well-lit room can boost your energy levels.
F.You can pick something good so you’ll be motivated to finish your task.
G.Thus, set aside a spot just for homework, and don’t do your work in bed.

(24-25高一上·广东阳江·期末)Achieving Success in Journalistic News Writing
No book, article or blog post can turn an ambitious writer into a successful journalist. All that it can do is to help the writer learn to write. The primary skill in learning to write is practice. 31
Among the most convenient subjects are the events and news in the world around us. Such topics are what skilled journalists write about, and that is why we call this form of writing “journalistic writing”.
Journalistic writing is not a special literary gymnastics that requires a special talent and an expansive vocabulary. 32 It is using language to tell what is going on in the world. As such, it requires no special talent beyond seeing and understanding what is taking place around us, to grasp its significance and relation to other events, and to tell others what we have seen and heard.
33 One of the chief characteristics is timeliness and relevance. It has little time to talk about the past, except in comparison with the present. It has little time to foretell the future, except in pointing out the significance of the present. Its subject is today. It is primarily concerned with facts. The writer considers himself a recorder of the things other persons are doing and thinking.
Another basic part of journalistic writing is that the writer prepares it for a definite purpose. Some writers, like novelists, write to use beautiful words and sentences. 34 However, the writer who favors a journalistic style uses English simply to tell what he has seen and heard; he realizes that his reader cares more for the things he tells than for the way in which he tells and expresses them.
Success in journalistic writing demands two important skills. One is the inborn skill to see and understand. The other is the skill to tell what the writer has seen in a way that makes the reader see the same thing. 35 If the writer is eager to excel, he must expand his knowledge and education so he can better understand and evaluate the things he sees and hears.
A.It will not do them any good to write news items.
B.To these imaginative literary writers, they favor expression.
C.To practice writing, one must have something to write about.
D.An ambitious writer can develop both skills if he lacks them.
E.The writer must write it now or never―without giving up quality.
F.Journalistic writing differs mainly in its subject matter and purpose.
G.Instead, it is the plainest, most reserved form of English composition.

(24-25高一上·广东广州海珠区·期末)In the freezing cold winter, air conditioners and heaters work overtime. The satisfaction of feeling a warm breeze against your skin is an amazing experience. 36
What are to blame are often the inefficient home appliances you have. Luckily, there are smart home appliances that can alleviate this burden. These appliances offer many benefits, all while keeping your electric bill manageable.
37 Smart lighting systems can detect activity in an area and adjust illumination accordingly, providing energy efficiency. In terms of security, smart door locks offer peace of mind by automatically securing your home when you leave.
And smart appliances can do more. From floor-cleaning robots to smart laundry systems, these appliances are equipped with advanced sensors. They make household chores effortless, leaving you more time for recreational activities. 38 You can even set a romantic mood in the living room by adjusting the smart lights and playing a romantic comedy movie on the smart TV.
Now, if you’ re considering switching to smart home appliances, it’s advisable to approach this gradually. 39 Smart lights, switches, plugs, smart hubs, and of course, Wi-Fi are wise choices. These small items play a crucial role in your smart home setup, especially the smart hubs and the Wi-Fi.
Switching from traditional and inefficient home appliances to smart ones is more than just a modern convenience. 40 You’re not just simplifying your daily routines but actively contributing to environmental conservation efforts.
A.But it needs a greener solution.
B.But the following electric bill can be a shock.
C.It’s a significant step towards a sustainable future.
D.Smart TVs provide many entertainment options for you to explore.
E.Moreover, smart appliances extend their features beyond the chores.
F.Advanced appliances can effectively manage every aspect of your household.
G.As large appliances can be significant investments, it is easier to start with smaller items.

(24-25高一上·广东广州花都区.期末)Working with zoo animals is a dream job for many people around the world. But the difficulty of an animal keeper’s day is beyond people’s imagination. 41 Here are some ways to prepare you well for working at a zoo.
● 42 This will be especially valuable if you’re doing tasks such as cleaning cages and helping care for various animals. This practical training will attract zoos and show that you’re willing to perform the boring roles that come with caring for animals.
●Ask to help out at a wildlife rehabilitation center (康复中心). 43 Usually, it takes much shorter time than that it would take at a zoo. Here, you can feed baby birds, care for injured animals or help keep databases (数据库) of endangered animals.
●Work with an endangered species group. Most of today’s zoos are no longer just run for the purpose of showing animals that most people would otherwise never see. 44 Volunteering with an endangered species group is a great way to gain experience, especially if the endangered species is of particular interest to you.
●Educate yourself through books or classes. Read whatever books you can find about animals, especially if the books relate to a specific type of animal that holds your interest or discuss zoos and the animals that live there. Also you can take animal-related classes. 45
A.Look for jobs.
B.Volunteer at a local animal shelter.
C.They also serve as a way to keep endangered species.
D.A job as an animal keeper in a zoo requires far more than an interest.
E.This will often allow you to get hands-on experience with wild animals.
F.Most zoos draw their zookeepers from a relatively small group of people.
G.Those animal-related topics will show you a broad awareness of how to work with animals.
(十)
(24-25高一上·广东深圳盐田.期末)As a speaker of 10 languages, I know the benefits of speaking more than one language. Actually, it is not a big challenge to learn languages. We only have to change the way we learn them. 46
Language learning is hard.
It will be only difficult to learn a language if you don’t want to. 47 What you mostly need to do is spend some time listening and reading. Believe me, it is that simple. I have done it many times. Soon you will feel the satisfaction of understanding another language. Before you know it you start speaking.
48
No, you don’t. Anyone who wants to learn can succeed. In Sweden and the Netherlands most people speak more than one language. They can’t just all be gifted in languages. Foreign athletes in North America usually learn to speak English faster than people in more formal learning environments. In language learning it is attitude that determines success.
You have to live where the language is spoken.
Some immigrants (移民) to North America never learn to speak more than broken English. Yet we meet people in other countries who speak perfect English. In 1968, I learnt to speak Mandarin fluently while living in San Francisco. 49 You can download it to your cellphone and listen. Where you live is not a problem.
I would love to learn but I don’t have the time.
How about the time you spend waiting in line, doing things around the house and going for a walk? 50 Once you get started, even 10 or 15 minutes a day will soon grow to 30 minutes a day, or one hour. If you believe you will achieve great results, and if you enjoy doing it, as I do, you will find the time.
I believe if you can avoid these traps, you will surely become masters of language learning.
A.The following are some tips for you to follow.
B.You have to have a gift for learning languages.
C.Learning a language takes time, but is not difficult.
D.We need to avoid some common misunderstandings.
E.Languages can only be learnt instead of being taught.
F.Why not use that time to listen to a language on your cellphone?
G.With the Internet, language content is available to anyone with a computer

(24-25高一上·广东·期末)If you’re looking for ways to improve running, here are the best tips for getting better at running.
Stick to running. The key to getting better at running is to train frequently and consistently. Constant practice gives you time to perfect your form and commit it to muscle memory. 6 If you are experienced, try at least 5 days a week.
Set a comfortable pace. If you run too fast, you’ll feel out of breath and you might not want to finish your run. Instead, run slower than you need to. Pacing yourself can be one of the biggest challenges. 7
Warm up before and after you run. Before you start your workout, walk or jog slowly for 3 to 5 minutes to allow your muscles to get used to the activity. 8 After you reach your goal, walk or jog for 3 to 5 minutes to cool down, prevent blood from collecting in your legs, and allow your heart rate to decrease.
9 Combine other activities with your running routine to improve muscle endurance, build strength and keep you injury-free. Weight training, yoga and swimming are all good choices. You can include 1 to 2 hours of other training into your running volume.
Listen to your body and make adjustments. 10 Even small changes in your breathing can be a sign to slow down or speed up. Tightness, pain, and discomfort are all signs to slow down, change your form, or stop and recover.
A.Improve your running form.
B.Go on running 1 or 2 miles every day.
C.Add other exercise forms to your running routine.
D.Your body gives you important signs when running.
E.This can help you find the perfect workout for your training.
F.Gradually increase your speed until you can run comfortably.
G.But you can tell your pace depending on if you can talk in full sentences easily.

6.上文提到“Constant practice gives you time to perfect your form and commit it to muscle memory.(不断的练习会给你时间去完善你的跑步姿势,并将其形成肌肉记忆)”,强调了坚持跑步和频繁练习的重要性;B选项“Go on running 1 or 2 miles every day.(每天持续跑1到2英里)”提供了一个具体的建议,即每天保持一定的跑步距离,这既是对上文坚持跑步理念的进一步阐释,也为初学者提供了一个可行的跑步计划。故选B。
7.上文提到“Pacing yourself can be one of the biggest challenges.(控制自己的速度可能是最大的挑战之一)”,指出控制跑步速度是一个难点;G选项“But you can tell your pace depending on if you can talk in full sentences easily.(但你可以通过是否能轻松地说出完整的句子来判断自己的速度)”给出了一个判断跑步速度是否合适的方法,即看自己在跑步时能否轻松说话,这与上文的“控制速度”相呼应,为跑者提供了一个实用的速度控制技巧。故选G。
8.段落主题句“Warm up before and after you run.(跑步前后都要热身)”以及上文“Before you start your workout, walk or jog slowly for 3 to 5 minutes to allow your muscles to get used to the activity. (在你开始锻炼之前,慢慢地走或慢跑3到5分钟,让你的肌肉适应这种活动)”都提到跑步前需要热身,让肌肉适应活动;F选项“Gradually increase your speed until you can run comfortably.(逐渐提高你的速度,直到你能舒适地跑步)”则是在热身之后,建议跑者逐渐提高速度,以达到舒适的跑步状态,这与上文的热身建议相辅相成,为跑者提供了一个从热身到正式跑步的过渡方法。故选F。

(24-25高一上·广东·期末)Four Habits of Highly Effective Students
The key to becoming an effective student is learning how to study smarter, not harder. 11 The following are the top four study habits used by highly successful students.
Don't attempt to cram (塞满) all your studying into one study period.
Do you frequently stay up late to complete your assignments or prepare for tomorrow's exams? 12 Successful students rarely try to complete all of their studying in just one or two study periods. You need to learn to have regular, yet shorter, study periods.
13
It's important you create a daily study routine. When you study at the same time each day and each week, your studying will become a regular part of your life. If you have to change your schedule from time to time due to unexpected events, that's okay. However, you'd better get back on your routine as soon as the event has passed.
Each study time should have a specific goal.
14 You need to know exactly what you need to achieve during each study period. Before you start studying, set a study period goal that supports your overall academic goal.
Never delay your planned study period.
It's very easy and common to put off your study period for lack of interest in the subject, or just because the task is hard. 15 If you do, your studying will become much less effective and you may not get everything completed.
We're confident that if you develop the habits above you'll see a big improvement in your study.
A.Study at the same time.
B.If so, it's time for a change.
C.Effective students usually study smart.
D.But successful students do not put off studying.
E.Simply studying without direction is not effective.
F.It would lead to a great number of mistakes you should have avoided.
G.Most successful students achieve success by developing effective study habits.

(24-25高一上·广东肇庆·期末)Natural disasters can strike at any time, and schools are no exception. Here are some steps for students to take to survive when a natural disaster hits schools.
21 . Every student should have a personal emergency kit that includes essential items such as a flashlight, batteries, a first-aid kit, water, and non-perishable food. Keeping this kit at hand can ensure students are always prepared.
Practice regular drills. Regular disaster drills are just as important as fire drills. They help students learn what to do in real emergency situations. Schools should conduct such drills regularly to ensure that students know what to do when a real disaster occurs. 22 .
Identify safe areas. Knowing where safe zones are in the school can be a lifesaver. 23 . Examples include hallways, under desks, or designated shelter areas. These areas should be predetermined within the school and they can provide the best protection during different types of disasters.
Understand the risk types. 24 For example, coastal areas are more likely to experience hurricanes, and landslides are a threat in mountainous areas. Therefore, schools should teach students knowledge about the specific type of threat in their local area so that they can take appropriate action during a disaster.
Take action in different situations. Students should stay calm and take immediate action based on different situations. For example, during a tornado, they should move to the lowest floor of the building and take cover under stable furniture. 25 . Earthquakes require us to drop to the ground, take cover under a table, and hold on until the shake stops.
By following these steps, students can increase their chances of survival and minimize the impact.
A.Offer immediate care
B.Prepare an emergency kit
C.Different areas may face different types of natural disasters
D.In the event of a flood, students should move to higher grounds
E.After a disaster, schools should check on all students and staff
F.These drills will help students react quickly and minimize the risk
G.When a disaster hits, students should head to the nearest safe area quickly
【答案】21.B 22.F 23.G 24.C 25.D
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一些帮助学生应对自然灾害的措施。
21.空格处是该段的主题句。根据下文的内容“Every student should have a personal emergency kit that includes essential items such as a flashlight, batteries, a first-aid kit, water, and non-perishable food. Keeping this kit at hand can ensure students are always prepared.(每个学生都应该有一个个人应急包,包括必需品,如手电筒,电池,急救箱,水和不易腐烂的食物。把这个工具箱放在手边可以确保学生随时准备好。)”可知,本段主要是说每个学生都应该准备一个应急包。所以,B项“Prepare an emergency kit(准备一个应急包)”可以作为主题句,填入空格处。故选B项。
22.空格前的句子“Regular disaster drills are just as important as fire drills. They help students learn what to do in real emergency situations. Schools should conduct such drills regularly to ensure that students know what to do when a real disaster occurs.(定期的灾难演练和消防演练一样重要。他们帮助学生学习在真正的紧急情况下该怎么做。学校应该定期进行这样的演习,以确保学生知道当真正的灾难发生时该怎么做。)”是说学校应该进行定期的灾难演练和消防演练。空格处的句子应该接着说这些演练的意义。所以,F项“These drills will help students react quickly and minimize the risk(这些训练将帮助学生快速反应并将风险降到最低)”填入空格处,符合语境。故选F项。
23.空格前的句子“Identify safe areas. Knowing where safe zones are in the school can be a lifesaver.(确定安全区域。知道学校里的安全区域在哪里可以帮上大忙。)”说明了确定安全区的意义,空格处的句子应该接着说当灾难发生时,学生应该怎样利用安全区。所以,G项“When a disaster hits, students should head to the nearest safe area quickly(当灾难发生时,学生应迅速前往最近的安全区域)”填入空格处,符合语境。故选G项。
24.根据空格后的例子“For example, coastal areas are more likely to experience hurricanes, and landslides are a threat in mountainous areas.(例如,沿海地区更有可能经历飓风,而山体滑坡是山区的威胁。)”可知,空格处的句子应该提到不同地区有不同的自然灾害。所以,C项“Different areas may face different types of natural disasters(不同的地区可能面临不同类型的自然灾害)”填入空格处,符合语境。故选C项。
25.根据该部分的主题句“Take action in different situations.(在不同的情况下采取行动。)”和空格前后的例子“For example, during a tornado, they should move to the lowest floor of the building and take cover under stable furniture.(例如,在龙卷风期间,他们应该移动到建筑物的最低层,并躲在稳定的家具下。)”、“Earthquakes require us to drop to the ground, take cover under a table, and hold on until the shake stops.(地震需要我们蹲下到地上,躲在桌子下面,坚持到震动停止。)”可知,空格处的句子也应该是涉及到某种自然灾害和面对这种灾害时的正确做法。所以D项“In the event of a flood, students should move to higher grounds(万一发生洪水,学生们应该搬到地势较高的地方去)”填入空格处,符合语境。故选D项。

(24-25高一上·广东江门·期末)How to Concentrate on Your Homework
Focusing on homework can be tough, especially when you’d rather do anything else. Maybe your attention keeps wandering back to your phone or you just want to take a nap. 26 . Here are some tips on how to concentrate on your homework.
Put away anything that might make it hard to concentrate. If you can’t stop looking at your phone, put it out of reach. 27 Close your computer or switch off your tablet unless you need them for your homework. Turn off the TV or any music that might make it hard for you to focus. If you find that it distracts you, turn it off.
28 Multitasking will actually make you less productive. If you’re doing your math homework, don’t try to listen to a video lecture about biology at the same time. You might feel like you’re getting more done, but it’ll actually slow you down! Wrap up one assignment before you move on to the next.
Study in a quiet, comfortable spot. Try to find a space with lots of light and room to spread out. If you can, choose an area where you won’t be bothered by lots of distractions, like a loud TV or noisy siblings. But be careful studying in your room — if you use a space where you usually sleep or relax, it’ll be hard to get into homework mode! 29
Reward yourself with something fun when you’re done. 30 For example, you could watch your favorite TV show, play a game you like, or call up a friend. When you treat yourself every time you get your work done, you might start looking forward to the work a little more!
A.Work on one assignment at a time.
B.Break your assignments into smaller tasks.
C.You could stick it in a desk drawer or inside your bag.
D.However, it’s a vital element in your academic journey.
E.Moreover, a well-lit room can boost your energy levels.
F.You can pick something good so you’ll be motivated to finish your task.
G.Thus, set aside a spot just for homework, and don’t do your work in bed.
【答案】26.D 27.C 28.A 29.G 30.F
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要就如何专注于家庭作业给出了一些建议。
26.上文“Focusing on homework can be tough, especially when you’d rather do anything else. Maybe your attention keeps wandering back to your phone or you just want to take a nap.(专注于家庭作业可能很难,尤其是当你宁愿做其他任何事情的时候。也许你的注意力一直徘徊在手机上,或者你就是想小睡一会儿。)”说明了专注于家庭作业很难,人们容易被其他事物分散注意力。下文“Here are some tips on how to concentrate on your homework.(以下是一些如何专注于家庭作业的建议。)”引出了下文关于如何专注于家庭作业的建议,所以空白处应该起到承上启下的作用,说明虽然专注于家庭作业很难,但是很重要,因此需要一些方法来帮助我们专注于家庭作业。选项D“然而,它是你学术旅程中的一个重要元素”符合语境。故选D。
27.上文“If you can’t stop looking at your phone, put it out of reach.(如果你忍不住看手机,就把它放在够不着的地方。)”说明了要把手机放在够不着的地方以避免分心。选项C“你可以把它放在书桌抽屉里或包里”具体说明了如何把手机放在够不着的地方,与上文紧密相连。下文“Close your computer or switch off your tablet unless you need them for your homework(关闭你的电脑或平板电脑,除非你做作业需要它们。)”说明了除了手机,其他可能分散注意力的东西也要处理好。选项C起到了承上启下的作用。故选C。
28.下文“Multitasking will actually make you less productive. If you’re doing your math homework, don’t try to listen to a video lecture about biology at the same time. You might feel like you’re getting more done, but it’ll actually slow you down! Wrap up one assignment before you move on to the next.(多任务处理实际上会降低你的效率。如果你在做数学作业,不要同时听生物学的视频讲座。你可能会觉得你做得更多了,但实际上这会减慢你的速度!在完成一项任务后再进行下一项。)”说明了不要同时做多项任务,要一次只做一件事。选项A“一次只做一项作业”能够概括这段话的意思,且能够引出下文。故选A。
29.上文“But be careful studying in your room — if you use a space where you usually sleep or relax, it’ll be hard to get into homework mode.(但是在你的房间里学习要小心——如果你使用一个你通常睡觉或放松的空间,就很难进入做作业的状态。)”说明了不要在自己通常睡觉或放松的地方学习,因为这样很难进入学习状态。选项G“因此,留一个地方专门做作业,不要在床上做作业”与上文的意思一致。故选G。
30.上文“Reward yourself with something fun when you’re done.(完成后用一些有趣的事情奖励自己。)”说明了完成作业后要给自己一些奖励。选项F“你可以选择一些好东西,这样你就有动力完成任务”说明了选择奖励的作用,且与上文紧密相连。下文“For example, you could watch your favorite TV show, play a game you like, or call up a friend.(例如,你可以看你最喜欢的电视节目,玩你喜欢的游戏,或者给朋友打电话。)”是对选项F的举例说明。所以选项F起到了承上启下的作用。故选F。

(24-25高一上·广东阳江·期末)Achieving Success in Journalistic News Writing
No book, article or blog post can turn an ambitious writer into a successful journalist. All that it can do is to help the writer learn to write. The primary skill in learning to write is practice. 31
Among the most convenient subjects are the events and news in the world around us. Such topics are what skilled journalists write about, and that is why we call this form of writing “journalistic writing”.
Journalistic writing is not a special literary gymnastics that requires a special talent and an expansive vocabulary. 32 It is using language to tell what is going on in the world. As such, it requires no special talent beyond seeing and understanding what is taking place around us, to grasp its significance and relation to other events, and to tell others what we have seen and heard.
33 One of the chief characteristics is timeliness and relevance. It has little time to talk about the past, except in comparison with the present. It has little time to foretell the future, except in pointing out the significance of the present. Its subject is today. It is primarily concerned with facts. The writer considers himself a recorder of the things other persons are doing and thinking.
Another basic part of journalistic writing is that the writer prepares it for a definite purpose. Some writers, like novelists, write to use beautiful words and sentences. 34 However, the writer who favors a journalistic style uses English simply to tell what he has seen and heard; he realizes that his reader cares more for the things he tells than for the way in which he tells and expresses them.
Success in journalistic writing demands two important skills. One is the inborn skill to see and understand. The other is the skill to tell what the writer has seen in a way that makes the reader see the same thing. 35 If the writer is eager to excel, he must expand his knowledge and education so he can better understand and evaluate the things he sees and hears.
A.It will not do them any good to write news items.
B.To these imaginative literary writers, they favor expression.
C.To practice writing, one must have something to write about.
D.An ambitious writer can develop both skills if he lacks them.
E.The writer must write it now or never―without giving up quality.
F.Journalistic writing differs mainly in its subject matter and purpose.
G.Instead, it is the plainest, most reserved form of English composition.
【答案】31.C 32.G 33.F 34.B 35.D
【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了在新闻写作中取得成功的一些方法和建议。
31.根据上文“The primary skill in learning to write is practice.(学习写作的首要技能是练习。)”可知,前文提到学习写作的主要技能是练习,C选项To practice writing, one must have something to write about. (为了练习写作,一个人必须有东西可写。)承接上文,引出下文提到的以身边事件和新闻为写作主题。故选C项。
32.根据上文“Journalistic writing is not a special literary gymnastics that requires a special talent and an expansive vocabulary.(新闻写作不是一种特殊的文学体操,不需要特殊的才能和丰富的词汇。)”可知,前文说新闻写作不是特殊的文学技巧,不需要特殊天赋和大量词汇,G 选项Instead, it is the plainest, most reserved form of English composition.(相反,它是英语作文中最朴素、最含蓄的形式。)可知,进一步解释新闻写作的特点,与前文形成转折,上下文紧密连接。故选G项。
33.根据下文“One of the chief characteristics is timeliness and relevance. It has little time to talk about the past, except in comparison with the present. It has little time to foretell the future, except in pointing out the significance of the present. Its subject is today.

34.根据上文“Some writers, like novelists, write to use beautiful words and sentences.(有些作家,像小说家一样,写作是为了使用优美的词语和句子。)”提到有些作家写作是为了使用优美的词语和句子。以及下文“However, the writer who favors a journalistic style uses English simply to tell what he has seen and heard; he realizes that his reader cares more for the things he tells than for the way in which he tells and expresses them.(然而,偏爱新闻风格的作家使用英语只是为了讲述他的所见所闻;他意识到,读者更关心的是他讲述的内容,而不是他讲述和表达这些内容的方式。)”,结合B选项To these imaginative literary writers, they favor expression.(对于这些富有想象力的文学作家来说,他们喜欢表达。)可知,承接上文内容,为对上文内容的语意递进,同时引起下文,起到上下文的承上启下作用。故选B项。

(24-25高一上·广东广州花都区.期末)Working with zoo animals is a dream job for many people around the world. But the difficulty of an animal keeper’s day is beyond people’s imagination. 41 Here are some ways to prepare you well for working at a zoo.
● 42 This will be especially valuable if you’re doing tasks such as cleaning cages and helping care for various animals. This practical training will attract zoos and show that you’re willing to perform the boring roles that come with caring for animals.
●Ask to help out at a wildlife rehabilitation center (康复中心). 43 Usually, it takes much shorter time than that it would take at a zoo. Here, you can feed baby birds, care for injured animals or help keep databases (数据库) of endangered animals.
●Work with an endangered species group. Most of today’s zoos are no longer just run for the purpose of showing animals that most people would otherwise never see. 44 Volunteering with an endangered species group is a great way to gain experience, especially if the endangered species is of particular interest to you.
●Educate yourself through books or classes. Read whatever books you can find about animals, especially if the books relate to a specific type of animal that holds your interest or discuss zoos and the animals that live there. Also you can take animal-related classes. 45
A.Look for jobs.
B.Volunteer at a local animal shelter.
C.They also serve as a way to keep endangered species.

(24-25高一上·广东深圳盐田.期末)As a speaker of 10 languages, I know the benefits of speaking more than one language. Actually, it is not a big challenge to learn languages. We only have to change the way we learn them. 46
Language learning is hard.
It will be only difficult to learn a language if you don’t want to. 47 What you mostly need to do is spend some time listening and reading. Believe me, it is that simple. I have done it many times. Soon you will feel the satisfaction of understanding another language. Before you know it you start speaking.
48
No, you don’t. Anyone who wants to learn can succeed. In Sweden and the Netherlands most people speak more than one language. They can’t just all be gifted in languages. Foreign athletes in North America usually learn to speak English faster than people in more formal learning environments. In language learning it is attitude that determines success.
You have to live where the language is spoken.
Some immigrants (移民) to North America never learn to speak more than broken English. Yet we meet people in other countries who speak perfect English. In 1968, I learnt to speak Mandarin fluently while living in San Francisco. 49 You can download it to your cellphone and listen. Where you live is not a problem.
I would love to learn but I don’t have the time.
How about the time you spend waiting in line, doing things around the house and going for a walk? 50 Once you get started, even 10 or 15 minutes a day will soon grow to 30 minutes a day, or one hour. If you believe you will achieve great results, and if you enjoy doing it, as I do, you will find the time.
I believe if you can avoid these traps, you will surely become masters of language learning.
A.The following are some tips for you to follow.
B.You have to have a gift for learning languages.
C.Learning a language takes time, but is not difficult.
D.We need to avoid some common misunderstandings.
E.Languages can only be learnt instead of being taught.
F.Why not use that time to listen to a language on your cellphone?
G.With the Internet, language content is available to anyone with a computer
【答案】46.D 47.C 48.B 49.G 50.F
【导语】这是一篇说明文,文章主要介绍了语言学习的一些误区。
46.根据设空处前两句“Actually, it is not a big challenge to learn languages. We only have to change the way we learn them.(实际上,学习语言并不是什么大的挑战。我们只需要改变学习它们的方式)”可知,学习语言并不是艰巨的挑战,我们只需改变自己学习语言的方式。再根据下文各段小标题可知,接下来要介绍的是对语言学习的一些误解。D项“我们需要避免一些常见的误解”承接上文并引出下文内容。故选D项。
47.根据下文“What you mostly need to do is spend some time listening and reading. Believe me, it is that simple.(你最需要做的是花些时间听和读。相信我,就是这么简单)”可知,作者认为学习语言实际上并不难,只需要花时间听和读。C项“学习一门语言需要花些时间,但是不难”符合语境,且C项中的takes time与下文中的spend some time呼应。故选C项。
48.根据设空处位置可知,设空处为本部分小标题。再根据下文中的“Anyone who wants to learn can succeed. In Sweden and the Netherlands most people speak more than one language. They can’t just all be gifted in languages.(任何想学习的人都能成功。在瑞典和荷兰,大多数人会说不止一种语言。他们不可能都有语言天赋)”可知,本段解释学习语言和天赋的关系,即语言学习与天赋无关。B项“你必须在学习语言方面很有天赋”是对语言学习的一种误解,能够概括本部分主要内容。故选B项。
49.根据下文中的“You can download it to your cellphone and listen.(你可以下载到你的手机上听)”可知,这里提到代词it,所以设空处要说明it是指什么,G项“有了因特网,任何人都可以使用电脑获得语言内容”提到了it的指代对象“语言内容”,符合语境。故选G项。
50.根据上文中的“How about the time you spend waiting in line, doing things around the house and going for a walk?(你花在排队、做家务和散步上的时间呢?)”可知,作者是在指出哪些时间是可以用来学习语言的。F项“为什么不利用那段时间用你的手机来听一种语言呢?”和上文意思一致。故选F项。
