Make sure the leader is vulnerable first and often: As we’ve seen, group cooperation is created by small, frequently repeated moments of vulnerability. 2 I saw a vivid example when I watched Danny Meyer run one of his morning meetings with his staff, Meyer is the founder of Union Square Cafe, Shake Shack, Gramercy Tavern, and a number of other restaurants that together are worth more than a billion dollars. 3 The staff meeting began with the group watching a video of Meyer's speech. Then the lights went up and Meyer spoke. “Can you see my leg shaking?” he asked the group.” 4 I’ve given a lot of speeches, but the TED people wanted something more, something deeper and thoughtful. So I slept about three hours the night before, which is why I have those bags under my eyes. We had a terrible rehearsal (排练), and I kept messing up the PowerPoint. So it was almost a complete terrible show. Except that I’m lucky enough to have some absolutely brilliant help.” He paused and pointed. “Thanks, Chip and Haley. They made the whole thing work. They wrote great stuff, gave me great advice, and kept me together,” Everyone looked at Chip and Haley and gave a short round of applause while Meyer looked on approvingly. Meyer delivered the message was scared with steadiness, confidence, and comfort that underlined the deeper message: It’s safe to tell the truth here. 5 A．I was so nervou shaking like a leaf. B．His vulnerability isn’t weakness; it’s his strength. C．Danny Meyer is a restaurant founder from St. Louis, Missouri. D．The night before my visit, he had delivered his first-ever TED Talk. E．And as with building muscle, the first key is to approach the process with a plan. F．Gentle pressure is my preferred technique for leadership, guidance, and coaching. G．Of these, none carries more power than the moment when a leader signals vulnerability. （2025·江苏无锡·一模）How to Make Eye Contact Making eye contact can be tricky, especially if you are shy, or nervous. But good eye-contact is important for building trust and engaging an audience. 1 Turning your shoulders and head to face the other person’s eyes. Opening up your body to the other person helps to tell him you are listening, engaged, and ready to communicate. 2 Position yourself a few feet away from the other person’s face, which ensures a respectful distance while still maintaining a sense of closeness. Choosing a focal point near the eyes. Most commonly, this is one of the other person’s eyes. But if you do feel uncomfortable, you can also avoid their eyes in a wise way. 3 You can also choose to look under or above the eyes, or at a certain point around the ear. Bear in mind that maintaining eye contact with the help of an appropriate focal point is an effective way to show sincerity. 4 Think of how you would look at a painting or great view — you are not focusing intently on them, but instead looking at them gently.

Breaking eye contact briefly every 5-15 seconds. 5 While you don’t need to count the seconds, you should look away every once in a while to keep the conversation light and easy, but only for a few seconds.

Here are several top empathy examples. Sense someone’s emotions. A highly empathetic person is in tune with others’ non-verbal cues, like body language. 2 . They can also sense feelings such as sadness, happiness, or anger before it’s expressed.

These include the information technology high school academic proficiency test, the general high school academic proficiency qualification test, and the final joint examination of key high schools in Yancheng. 1 . For the review content arrangement, it is essential that students make a detailed plan. What comes first is the information technology exam. 2 . It is recommended that they spend sufficient time on operating different software and understanding their functions. For the academic proficiency qualification test, a comprehensive review of all subjects is necessary, especially those fundamental concepts and formulas (公式) that act as the building blocks of knowledge. As for the joint examination, it is advisable that they summarize the knowledge learned during the semester and practice with mock tests. Psychological adjustment is equally important. It is necessary that students keep a calm and positive attitude. 3 . Instead, they can take short breaks during study, which can help them to regain energy. Deep breathing exercises or listening to soft music can be effective stress relievers. In terms of time planning, students need to allocate their time reasonably. 4 . For example, in the early morning, when the mind is as fresh as a daisy, they can focus on memorizing theoretical knowledge. In the afternoon, they can engage in exercises and mock tests to strengthen their understanding and application abilities. In conclusion, only by carefully arranging the review content, effectively adjusting the psychological state, and wisely planning the time can students be well-prepared to face these three important exams and achieve satisfactory results. 5 . A．Through such efforts they can hope to move forward on their academic journey B．They need to make a schedule showing the particular time for each subject and exam C．The methods of review and preparation are far from being crucial D．All these exams are like crucial battlegrounds for their academic progress E．What requires their focus is the practical skills and theoretical knowledge F．By no means should they be overwhelmed by stress and anxiety G．A large amount of time should be devoted to key subjects （24-25高三上·江苏常州·期末）We’ve all been there before — you’re in conversation, things are getting along nicely. 1 At that moment, your mind goes completely blank, you don’t know what to say, and you can sense the other person’s eyes wandering as they look for someone else to talk to. That scenario (场面) is terrible, so here are three tips to make sure that you never run out of things to say in conversation again. Firstly, when you find yourself in that situation where your mind has gone blank, play “Reminds Me of”. That just means that you look to the environment around you and say, “You know, that reminds me of…” and then fill in the blank. 2 And it can also work as a follow-up when someone finishes telling a story, which is how many groups of friends interact all the time. Second, when you ask questions, keep them open-ended as often as possible. 3 So rather than saying, “Oh, you’re from Toronto. Do you like it there?” you might say, “How do you like Toronto? I’m curious to hear more about it.” You should get the other person talking about the things that they like, which is going to open up more conversational topics. 4 This is the third tip. If you’re in a new group and conversation dies after initial pleasantries, a great question is, “How do you guys all know one another?” There’s almost always some kind of story that conversation can build from. If you’re only speaking to one person, you can say instead, “So what’s your story?” The great thing about this question is that it is so open-ended that the other person will probably guide you towards new topics, usually responding with something like, “You mean what do I do for work or what do I like to do for fun?” 5 A．It’s great for opening new conversational topics. B．Then out of nowhere, the awkward silence occurs. C．So, ask them about their exciting plans for the future. D．You’d better avoid questions inviting a one-word response. E．That’s because people don’t like to talk to others different from themselves. F．For the worst scenario when conversation stops suddenly, use saving questions. G．His or her tone and enthusiasm will tell you the best angle of conversation to continue with. （2025·江苏·模拟预测）Food Safety Is Crucial: How Should We Respond? With the rapid growth of online media, China’s increasingly serious food safety issues are coming to light more often. These include incidents like the production and sale of toxic milk powder, recycled cooking oil making its way back to dining tables, and falsified ingredient labels. 1 ● 2 It’s crucial to know where your food comes from and how it’s prepared. Research the sources of your groceries, whether it’s local farms or imported goods. Read labels, check for certifications, and stay updated on any food recalls. Awareness is your first line of defense. ●Support local and transparent producers. Instead of choosing for mass-produced, processed foods, consider supporting local farmers and markets where you can trace the source of your food. Local businesses often prioritize quality over quantity. 3 ● Eat more at home. Obviously, it’s hard to monitor the hygiene standards and food sources in restaurants. 4 You can base your meals around minimally processed, wholesome ingredients to ensure both safety and nutrition, which is absolutely beneficial to your health. ● Practice smart hygiene at home. You play a role in ensuring food safety once it enters your kitchen. Always wash your hands before handling food, clean your kitchen surfaces regularly, and cook meats to safe temperatures. 5 A．Be Informed. B．Be prepared. C．So, how can we ensure that the food we consume is safe? D．In this way, you are able to have fresher and safer options. E．Preparing meals yourself allows you to avoid unnecessary additives. F．Simple actions can make a significant difference in preventing food-borne illnesses. G．Then, how should we deal with businesses selling bad food? （24-25高三上·江苏·阶段练习）The human voice: It’s the instrument we all play. It’s the most powerful sound in the world. And yet many people have the experience that when they speak, people don’t listen to them. 1 I’d like to suggest that there are four really powerful cornerstones (基石) that we can stand on if we want our speech to be powerful and to make changes. Fortunately, these things spell a word. 2 I’m not talking about the stuff that falls from the sky and hits you on the head. I’m talking about this definition, to greet or acclaim (赞扬) enthusiastically, which is how I think our words will be received if we stand on these four things. So what do they stand for? See if you can guess. The H, honesty, of course, being true in what you say, being straight and clear. The A is authenticity (真实性), just being yourself. 3 I think it is a lovely way to put it. The I is integrity, being your word, actually doing what you say, and being somebody people can trust. And the L is love. I don’t mean romantic love, but I do mean wishing people well. I think absolute honesty may not be what we want. 4 Perhaps that’s not necessary. Tempered with love, of course, honesty is a great thing. But also, if you’re really wishing somebody well, it’s very hard to judge them at the same time. So hail. What would the world be like if we were speaking powerfully to people who were listening consciously in environments which were actually fit for purpose? 5 A．I mean, my goodness, you look ugly this morning. B．How can we speak powerfully to make changes? C．The word is “hail,” and that is an idea worth spreading. D．The word is “hail,” and it has a great definition as well. E．The world would be a beautiful and understanding world. F．A friend of mine described it as standing in your own truth. G．This world is incredible, like a toolbox that very few people have ever opened. （24-25高三上·江苏南通·阶段练习）In the modem world, we are encouraged to be busy and as productive as possible. Most of us probably feel the pressure to perform efficiently. 1 Faster doesn’t equal better. And being busier does not mean we are more productive. We might also struggle to slow down. So how do we slow down? Here are some science-based strategies to try. Take intentional pauses. Taking intentional pauses can lead to better outcomes. It turns out that when teachers pause after asking a question and after receiving a response, it improves students’ use of language and logic. This suggests that we should give ourselves a bit more time to think through the questions we encounter in life. 2 Spend less time on your phone. We often feel tired and need a break from our busy day, so we pick up our phones. We surf through social media, the news, or shopping websites. 3 That’s the opposite of slowing down. To start, it would do us some good to spend less time on our phones. Then, it also matters a lot how we spend time on our phones. Are we stimulating our brain with information or anger? Or are we using our phones to relax and recover? 4 Sometimes when we feel overwhelmed by life, s fast pace, the true source of that chaos often lies within our own minds. Maybe we’re running over what we’ll say to our coworker tomorrow. 5 One effective strategy to aid this process can be daily journaling — we get those thoughts out of our heads and onto paper. We might also go for a run or take a cold shower — two techniques that can help our brains change direction and start thinking differently. A．Slow down your mind. B．Write down your thoughts. C．And being busier means that we are more productive. D．Thus, we are more likely to come up with better answers. E．But all that these activities do is make our heads even fuller. F．Sometimes we just need to stop briefly and reset our thought. G．But this feeling of “time urgency” actually leads us to perform worse. 重难语篇拔高练 （2025·江苏·一模）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. 1 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. 2 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. 3 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. 4 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. 5 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高三上·江苏南京·期中）How Playing Sports Benefits Your Body and Your Brain Many people love to celebrate victory on the playing field, cheer for their favorite teams, and play sports. But here’s a question: Should we be so addicted to sports? Is playing sports actually as good for us as we make it out to be, or just a fun and entertaining pastime? 1 . First of all, exercising, especially when we’re young, has all sorts of health benefits. It strengthens our bones, clears out bad cholesterol (胆固醇) from our arteries, and decreases the risk of stroke, high blood pressure, and diabetes. When we work out, our brains also release a number of chemicals, including endorphins (内啡肽). These natural hormones control pain and pleasure responses in the central nervous system. 2 . Studies show that if you can find a sport and a team you like, there are all sorts of benefits that go beyond the physical and mental benefits of exercise alone. In addition, commitment to a team and doing something fun can also make it easier to establish a regular habit of exercise. School sport participation has also been shown to reduce the risk of suffering from depression for up to four years. 3 . There are a few reasons for that. One is found in training. Just by working at skills, especially with a good coach, you develop a growth mindset within yourself, which is useful in all walks of life. 4 . The experience of coming to terms with defeat can build the resilience (复原力) and self-awareness necessary to manage academic, social, and physical obstacles. Now, not everyone will enjoy every sport. But if you spend some time looking, you’ll be able to find a sport that fits your individual needs. 5 . You’ll be a part of a supportive community, you’ll be building your confidence, you’ll be exercising your body, and you’ll be nurturing your mind. A．What does science have to say? B．Therefore, you’ll get a lot of fun. C．They can lead to feelings of excitement. D．And if you do, there are so many benefits. E．And then there is learning through failure. F．Should we get much benefit from going to the gym? G．Meanwhile, your self-esteem (自尊) and confidence can get a big boost. 试卷第1页，共3页 试卷第1页，共3页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 备战2025年高考英语名校模拟真题速递(江苏专用) 第五期 专题03 七选五10篇(江苏高考模拟) 基础语篇巩固练 （24-25高三上·江苏苏州·期末）Building habits of group vulnerability(脫弱)is like building a muscle.

A highly empathetic person is in tune with others’ non-verbal cues, like body language.(感受别人的情绪。一个有高度同理心的人会与他人的非语言暗示合拍，比如肢体语言)”以及后文“They can also sense feelings such as sadness, happiness, or anger before it’s expressed. These individuals are sensitive to the emotions of those around them, which allows them to experience greater empathy, including feeling others’ pain and sadness.(他们还能在情绪表达出来之前感知到悲伤、快乐或愤怒等情绪。这些人对周围人的情绪很敏感，这让他们有更多的同理心，包括感受别人的痛苦和悲伤)”可知，上文提到一个有高度同理心的人会注意到肢体语言，推测本句主要说明他们是如何利用肢体语言的。故C选项“他们注意到这些线索是情绪状态的指示器”符合语境，故选C。 3．根据上文“Imagine yourself in someone’s situation. Empathy is about being able to understand how someone else feels by putting yourself in their position.(想象自己处在别人的处境中。同理心就是设身处地理解别人的感受)”以及后文“People who have faced personal pain often good at this, as their lived experiences help them understand others’ emotions. In contrast, a privileged person may feel sympathy but struggle to connect emotionally, as they have not faced similar tough situations in their own lives. (经历过个人痛苦的人往往擅长于此，因为他们的生活经历有助于他们理解他人的情绪。相比之下，一个有特权的人可能会感到同情，但很难在情感上联系起来，因为他们在自己的生活中没有遇到过类似的艰难处境)”可知，上文提到同理心就是设身处地理解别人的感受，后文则说经历过个人痛苦的人更加擅长理解别人的感受，说明能够理解他人感受是因为自己经历过类似的事情。故E选项“你能理解他们的感受，因为你以前经历过”符合语境，故选E。 4．根据上文“Feel strongly for people who share your identity.(对和你有相同身份的人有强烈的感情)”以及后文“This is because we understand their feelings from our own past. We can also envision ourselves in their situation in the future. For instance, a person of color witnessing another person of color being mistreated by the police not only recognizes the social injustice but also feels anger because it affects their group. They might fear that they could be in the same situation next week. (这是因为我们从自己的过去中了解他们的感受。我们也可以想象自己未来处于他们的处境。例如，一个有色人种看到另一个有色人种受到警察的虐待，不仅认识到社会的不公正，而且感到愤怒，因为这影响了他们的群体。他们可能会担心自己下周会处于同样的境地)”可知，本段主旨是“对和你有相同身份的人有强烈的感情”，后文提到“这是因为我们从自己的过去中了解他们的感受”，说明我们对那些和自己有相同经历的人更容易有同理心。故F选项“我们更倾向于同情那些有着相似生活经历的人”符合语境，故选F。 5．根据上文“Taking the time to listen to someone and show that we understand their experiences can reduce stress, build trust, and strengthen community.(花时间倾听别人，并表明我们理解他们的经历，可以减轻压力，建立信任，加强社区)”以及后文“This is because they allow us to see things from another person’s perspective. By using these statements, we can connect more deeply with others and create a more compassionate world.(这是因为他们允许我们从另一个人的角度看问题。通过使用这些语句，我们可以更深入地与他人联系，创造一个更富有同情心的世界)”可知，上文建议倾听别人，理解别人的经历，后文则提到使用语句，可知本句是在论述通过有同情心的语句来帮助他人，B选项中Empathy statements对应后文there statements。故B选项“同理心陈述有助于解决冲突”符合语境，故选B。 （2025·江苏泰州·一模）With the semester approaching its end, sophomores (高二学生) are faced with three significant exams. These include the information technology high school academic proficiency test, the general high school academic proficiency qualification test, and the final joint examination of key high schools in Yancheng. 1 . For the review content arrangement, it is essential that students make a detailed plan. What comes first is the information technology exam. 2 .

That scenario (场面) is terrible, so here are three tips to make sure that you never run out of things to say in conversation again. Firstly, when you find yourself in that situation where your mind has gone blank, play “Reminds Me of”. That just means that you look to the environment around you and say, “You know, that reminds me of…” and then fill in the blank. 2 And it can also work as a follow-up when someone finishes telling a story, which is how many groups of friends interact all the time. Second, when you ask questions, keep them open-ended as often as possible. 3 So rather than saying, “Oh, you’re from Toronto. Do you like it there?” you might say, “How do you like Toronto? I’m curious to hear more about it.” You should get the other person talking about the things that they like, which is going to open up more conversational topics. 4 This is the third tip. If you’re in a new group and conversation dies after initial pleasantries, a great question is, “How do you guys all know one another?” There’s almost always some kind of story that conversation can build from. If you’re only speaking to one person, you can say instead, “So what’s your story?” The great thing about this question is that it is so open-ended that the other person will probably guide you towards new topics, usually responding with something like, “You mean what do I do for work or what do I like to do for fun?” 5 A．It’s great for opening new conversational topics. B．Then out of nowhere, the awkward silence occurs. C．So, ask them about their exciting plans for the future. D．You’d better avoid questions inviting a one-word response. E．That’s because people don’t like to talk to others different from themselves. F．For the worst scenario when conversation stops suddenly, use saving questions. G．His or her tone and enthusiasm will tell you the best angle of conversation to continue with. 【答案】1．B 2．A 3．D 4．F 5．G 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了三个确保在谈话中避免无话可说的技巧。 1．前文“We’ve all been there before — you’re in conversation, things are getting along nicely. (我们以前都有过这样的经历——你在交谈，事情进展得很顺利)”引出交谈中事情进展顺利的情境，后文“At that moment, your mind goes completely blank, you don’t know what to say, and you can sense the other person’s eyes wandering as they look for someone else to talk to. (在那一刻，你的大脑一片空白，你不知道该说什么，你可以感觉到对方的眼睛在四处游荡，因为他们在寻找可以说话的人)”具体描述大脑陷入空白，对方想和其他人交谈的尴尬情况，空处应该是表达突然陷入一种糟糕的情况，因此B项“Then out of nowhere, the awkward silence occurs. (然后不知怎么的，尴尬的沉默出现了)”符合语境，承前启后。故选B。 2．前文“That just means that you look to the environment around you and say, “You know, that reminds me of…” and then fill in the blank. (这意味着你看看你周围的环境，然后说，“你知道，这让我想起了……”，然后填补空白)”介绍了“这让我想起了”方法，后文“And it can also work as a follow-up when someone finishes telling a story, which is how many groups of friends interact all the time. (当某人讲完一个故事时，它也可以作为后续跟进，这是很多朋友群体一直在互动的方式)”提到这种方法进一步的用处，空处应该是指出这种方法的第一个作用，因此A项“It’s great for opening new conversational topics. (这是开启新的谈话话题的好方法)”符合语境，承接前文，后文是对其递进，其中的It指代前文描述的方法。故选A。 3．前文“Second, when you ask questions, keep them open-ended as often as possible. (第二，当你问问题的时候，尽可能让它们是开放式的)”建议多问开放式的问题，后文“So rather than saying, “Oh, you’re from Toronto. Do you like it there?” you might say, “How do you like Toronto? I’m curious to hear more about it.” (所以不要说，“哦，你来自多伦多。你喜欢那里吗？”你可能会说：“你觉得多伦多怎么样？”我很想了解更多。”)”举出具体的例子说明应用开放式问题代替非开放式问题，空处应该点明避免非开放式问题，因此D项“You’d better avoid questions inviting a one-word response. (你最好避免一个词就能回答的问题)”符合语境，承接前文，后文是对其例证。故选D。 4．后文“If you’re in a new group and conversation dies after initial pleasantries, a great question is, “How do you guys all know one another?” There’s almost always some kind of story that conversation can build from. If you’re only speaking to one person, you can say instead, “So what’s your story?” (如果你在一个新群体里，在最初的寒暄之后，谈话就结束了，一个很好的问题是，“你们是怎么认识彼此的？”几乎总有一些故事可以作为对话的基础。如果你只和一个人说话，你可以说，“那么你的故事是什么？”)”具体介绍了谈话陷入僵局时可以使用的通用式的提问，空处位于段首，是段落主旨句，应该是总地建议用一个通用式的提问，因此F项“For the worst scenario when conversation stops suddenly, use saving questions. (对于最糟糕的情况，当谈话突然停止时，使用保留问题)”符合语境，契合后文内容，是后一句中This指代的对象。故选F。 5．前文“If you’re only speaking to one person, you can say instead, “So what’s your story?” The great thing about this question is that it is so open-ended that the other person will probably guide you towards new topics, usually responding with something like, “You mean what do I do for work or what do I like to do for fun?” (如果你只和一个人说话，你可以说，“那么你的故事是什么？”这个问题的好处是，它是开放式的，对方可能会引导你谈论新的话题，通常会这样回答：“你的意思是我做什么工作，或者我喜欢做什么娱乐？”)”提到和一个人说话时可以使用的通用式的提问，并指出这种提问的好处，空处是段末句，应该是继续说明这种提问的好处，因此G项“His or her tone and enthusiasm will tell you the best angle of conversation to continue with. (他或她的语气和热情会告诉你继续谈话的最佳角度)”符合语境，承接前文。故选G。 （2025·江苏·模拟预测）Food Safety Is Crucial: How Should We Respond?

It’s the most powerful sound in the world. And yet many people have the experience that when they speak, people don’t listen to them. 1 I’d like to suggest that there are four really powerful cornerstones (基石) that we can stand on if we want our speech to be powerful and to make changes. Fortunately, these things spell a word. 2 I’m not talking about the stuff that falls from the sky and hits you on the head. I’m talking about this definition, to greet or acclaim (赞扬) enthusiastically, which is how I think our words will be received if we stand on these four things. So what do they stand for? See if you can guess. The H, honesty, of course, being true in what you say, being straight and clear. The A is authenticity (真实性), just being yourself. 3 I think it is a lovely way to put it. The I is integrity, being your word, actually doing what you say, and being somebody people can trust. And the L is love. I don’t mean romantic love, but I do mean wishing people well. I think absolute honesty may not be what we want. 4 Perhaps that’s not necessary. Tempered with love, of course, honesty is a great thing. But also, if you’re really wishing somebody well, it’s very hard to judge them at the same time. So hail. What would the world be like if we were speaking powerfully to people who were listening consciously in environments which were actually fit for purpose? 5 A．I mean, my goodness, you look ugly this morning. B．How can we speak powerfully to make changes? C．The word is “hail,” and that is an idea worth spreading. D．The word is “hail,” and it has a great definition as well. E．The world would be a beautiful and understanding world. F．A friend of mine described it as standing in your own truth. G．This world is incredible, like a toolbox that very few people have ever opened. 【答案】1．B 2．D 3．F 4．A 5．E 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了如何通过四个基石（HAIL）来增强我们的言语力量，从而带来积极的改变。 1．空前“And yet many people have the experience that when they speak, people don’t listen to them.(然而，许多人都有这样的经历：当他们说话时，人们不听他们的)”说明了有时候人们不听人说的话，空后“I’d like to suggest that there are four really powerful cornerstones (基石) that we can stand on if we want our speech to be powerful and to make changes.(我想提出，如果我们想让演讲充满力量并带来改变，那么有四个真正强大的基石是我们可以立足的)”说明我们可以基于四个基石来做出改变，B选项“How can we speak powerfully to make changes?(我们怎样才能有力地表达以带来改变呢？)”提出了我们要怎么带来改变，承上启下，符合语境，故选B。 2．空后“I’m not talking about the stuff that falls from the sky and hits you on the head. I’m talking about this definition, to greet or acclaim (赞扬) enthusiastically, which is how I think our words will be received if we stand on these four things.(我说的不是从天上掉下来砸在你头上的东西。我说的是这个定义，热情地欢迎或欢呼，我认为如果我们站在这四件事上，我们的话就会被接受)”说明“我”说的不是天上掉下来的东西，因此空格处要提到一个从天而降可能砸到人头上的东西，而且要提到定义，D选项“The word is “hail,” and it has a great definition as well.(这个词是“冰雹”，它也有一个很好的定义)”和天上掉下的东西有关，也提到了定义，因此引起下文，符合语境，故选D。 3．空前“The A is authenticity (真实性), just being yourself.(A代表真实性，做你自己)”说明了A代表要做自己，空格处应该和做自己有关，F选项“A friend of mine described it as standing in your own truth.(我的一个朋友把它描述为坚持自己的真理)”说明坚持自己的真理，也就是做自己，承接上文，符合语境，故选F。 4．空前“I think absolute honesty may not be what we want.(我认为绝对的诚实可能不是我们想要的)”说明绝对的诚实可能不是我们想要的，说明绝对的诚实可能也有不好的一面，A选项“I mean, my goodness, you look ugly this morning.(我的天啊，你今天早上看起来真丑)”说的是一种不好的诚实，因此承接上文，符合语境，故选A。 5．空前“What would the world be like if we were speaking powerfully to people who were listening consciously in environments which were actually fit for purpose?(如果我们在合适的环境中对有意识倾听的人有力地说话，世界会变成什么样子？)”提出问题，问如果我们在合适的环境中对有意识倾听的人有力地说话，世界会变成什么样子，回答应该是说世界会变成什么，E选项“The world would be a beautiful and understanding world.(这个世界将会是一个美丽且充满理解的世界)”说明这个世界将会变得美丽又充满理解，是对空前问题的回答，因此承接上文，符合语境，故选E。 （24-25高三上·江苏南通·阶段练习）In the modem world, we are encouraged to be busy and as productive as possible. Most of us probably feel the pressure to perform efficiently. 1 Faster doesn’t equal better. And being busier does not mean we are more productive. We might also struggle to slow down. So how do we slow down? Here are some science-based strategies to try. Take intentional pauses. Taking intentional pauses can lead to better outcomes. It turns out that when teachers pause after asking a question and after receiving a response, it improves students’ use of language and logic. This suggests that we should give ourselves a bit more time to think through the questions we encounter in life. 2 Spend less time on your phone. We often feel tired and need a break from our busy day, so we pick up our phones. We surf through social media, the news, or shopping websites. 3 That’s the opposite of slowing down. To start, it would do us some good to spend less time on our phones. Then, it also matters a lot how we spend time on our phones. Are we stimulating our brain with information or anger? Or are we using our phones to relax and recover? 4 Sometimes when we feel overwhelmed by life, s fast pace, the true source of that chaos often lies within our own minds. Maybe we’re running over what we’ll say to our coworker tomorrow. 5 One effective strategy to aid this process can be daily journaling — we get those thoughts out of our heads and onto paper. We might also go for a run or take a cold shower — two techniques that can help our brains change direction and start thinking differently. A．Slow down your mind. B．Write down your thoughts. C．And being busier means that we are more productive. D．Thus, we are more likely to come up with better answers. E．But all that these activities do is make our heads even fuller. F．Sometimes we just need to stop briefly and reset our thought. G．But this feeling of “time urgency” actually leads us to perform worse. 【答案】1．G 2．D 3．E 4．A 5．F 【导语】这是一篇说明文，文章主要介绍了在被鼓励尽可能地忙碌和富有成效的现代社会中，我们应如何放慢速度。 1．根据空前“In the modem world, we are encouraged to be busy and as productive as possible. Most of us probably feel the pressure to perform efficiently.(在现代社会，我们被鼓励尽可能忙碌和高效。我们大多数人可能会感到高效工作的压力)”可知，在被鼓励尽可能忙碌和高效的今天，我们很多人会感到高效工作的压力，根据空后“Faster doesn’t equal better. And being busier does not mean we are more productive. We might also struggle to slow down.(更快并不等于更好。更忙并不意味着我们更有效率。我们可能也很难放慢脚步)”可知，此处讲的是更快更忙并不等于更好和更高效，空处承上启下，推测空处应该讲这种时间的紧迫感带给我们的负面影响，G项But this feeling of “time urgency” actually leads us to perform worse.(但这种“时间紧迫”的感觉实际上会让我们表现得更差。)指出这种“时间紧迫”感会让我们表现得更差，承接上文，引出下文，符合上下文语境，故选G项。 2．根据本段主旨句“Take intentional pauses.(有意的停顿)”以及空前“Taking intentional pauses can lead to better outcomes. It turns out that when teachers pause after asking a question and after receiving a response, it improves students’ use of language and logic. This suggests that we should give ourselves a bit more time to think through the questions we encounter in life.(有意的停顿可以带来更好的结果。事实证明，当教师在提问和得到回答后暂停时，学生的语言和逻辑能力得到了提高。这表明我们应该给自己多一点时间来思考我们在生活中遇到的问题)”可知，此处指的是老师讲课过程中的有意停顿会让学生的语言能力和逻辑能力得到提高，空处位于段末，应对前文内容进行总结或进一步的解释与说明，推测空处应该指出有意停顿让学生的语言能力和逻辑能力得到提高以后会有一个什么样的结果，D项Thus, we are more likely to come up with better answers.(因此，我们更有可能想出更好的答案。)指出学生的语言能力和逻辑能力得到提高以后我们更有可能想出更好的答案，既指出了有意停顿的好处，又对前文内容进行了总结，Thus表明了前后语意的因果关系，符合上下文语境，故选D项。 3．根据空前“We often feel tired and need a break from our busy day, so we pick up our phones. We surf through social media, the news, or shopping websites.(我们经常感到疲倦，需要从忙碌的一天中休息一下，所以我们拿起手机。我们浏览社交媒体、新闻或购物网站)”可知，本段指出我们在感到疲倦需要休息的时候经常在手机上浏览社交媒体、新闻或购物网站，根据空后“That’s the opposite of slowing down. (这是减速的反义词)”可知，此处指出在手机上浏览社交媒体、新闻或购物网站实际上不会让我们的大脑慢下来并得到放松，空处承上启下，推测空处应该讲的是感到疲倦时看手机不仅不会让我们放松反而会让我们的大脑更忙碌，E项But all that these activities do is make our heads even fuller.(但所有这些活动只会让我们的头脑更满。)指出所有浏览社交媒体、新闻或购物网站的活动会让我们的大脑更忙碌，承接上文，引出下文，而且空后的That指代E项的内容，符合上下文语境，故选E项。 4．空处位于段首，应是本段的主旨句，根据空后“Sometimes when we feel overwhelmed by life, s fast pace, the true source of that chaos often lies within our own minds. Maybe we’re running over what we’ll say to our coworker tomorrow. (有时候，当我们被生活的快节奏压垮时，混乱的真正根源往往在于我们自己的思想。也许我们正在考虑明天要对同事说什么)”可知，此处指的是我们被生活节奏快要压垮的根源在于我们比较快的思维节奏，由此可知，本段的主旨应与放慢个人思想节奏有关，A项Slow down your mind(放慢你的思维)指出我们应该放慢个人的思想节奏，概括本段主要内容，符合上下文语境，故选A项。 5．根据空后“One effective strategy to aid this process can be daily journaling — we get those thoughts out of our heads and onto paper. We might also go for a run or take a cold shower — two techniques that can help our brains change direction and start thinking differently.(帮助这个过程的一个有效的策略是每天写日记——我们把这些想法从我们的脑海里写出来，写在纸上。我们也可以去跑步或洗个冷水澡——这两种方法可以帮助我们的大脑改变方向，开始以不同的方式思考)”可知，此处指出了帮助大脑重新思考的两种方法，所以空处应提到针对于生活中的快节奏我们应该停下来以帮助大脑重新思考的话题，F项Sometimes we just need to stop briefly and reset our thought.(有时候，我们只需要停下来重新思考一下。)指出我们 应该停下来重新思考的话题，而且空后的this process指代的是空处的内容，引出下文，符合上下文语境，故选F项。 重难语篇拔高练 （2025·江苏·一模）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. 1 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. 2 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. 3 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. 4 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. 5 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】1．C 2．G 3．F 4．B 5．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。 1．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。 2．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。 3．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. It is primarily concerned with facts.(主要特点之一是时效性和相关性。没有多少时间谈论过去，除了与现在进行比较。除了指出现在的意义外，几乎没有时间来预测未来。它的主题是今天。它主要关注事实。)”可知，后文分别阐述了新闻写作的及时性、相关性以及关注事实等特点，还提到写作目的，F选项Journalistic writing differs mainly in its subject matter and purpose. (新闻写作的不同之处在于它的主题和目的。)“可知，能够概括该段内容，引出下文对新闻写作特点和目的的具体描述。故选F项。 4．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。 5．根据上文“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.(成功的新闻写作需要两个重要的技巧。一个是天生的观察和理解的能力。另一种技巧是用一种读者也能看到的方式来讲述作者所看到的东西。)”可知，前文提到新闻写作成功需要两种重要技能，D选项An ambitious writer can develop both skills if he lacks them.(一个有抱负的作家如果缺乏这两种技能，他也可以发展这两种技能。) 可知，承接上文内容，为对上文内容的语意递进，上下文紧密连接。故选D项。 （24-25高三上·江苏南京·期中）How Playing Sports Benefits Your Body and Your Brain Many people love to celebrate victory on the playing field, cheer for their favorite teams, and play sports. But here’s a question: Should we be so addicted to sports? Is playing sports actually as good for us as we make it out to be, or just a fun and entertaining pastime? 1 . First of all, exercising, especially when we’re young, has all sorts of health benefits. It strengthens our bones, clears out bad cholesterol (胆固醇) from our arteries, and decreases the risk of stroke, high blood pressure, and diabetes. When we work out, our brains also release a number of chemicals, including endorphins (内啡肽). These natural hormones control pain and pleasure responses in the central nervous system. 2 . Studies show that if you can find a sport and a team you like, there are all sorts of benefits that go beyond the physical and mental benefits of exercise alone. In addition, commitment to a team and doing something fun can also make it easier to establish a regular habit of exercise. School sport participation has also been shown to reduce the risk of suffering from depression for up to four years. 3 . There are a few reasons for that. One is found in training. Just by working at skills, especially with a good coach, you develop a growth mindset within yourself, which is useful in all walks of life. 4 . The experience of coming to terms with defeat can build the resilience (复原力) and self-awareness necessary to manage academic, social, and physical obstacles. Now, not everyone will enjoy every sport. But if you spend some time looking, you’ll be able to find a sport that fits your individual needs. 5 . You’ll be a part of a supportive community, you’ll be building your confidence, you’ll be exercising your body, and you’ll be nurturing your mind. A．What does science have to say? B．Therefore, you’ll get a lot of fun. C．They can lead to feelings of excitement. D．And if you do, there are so many benefits. E．And then there is learning through failure. F．Should we get much benefit from going to the gym? G．Meanwhile, your self-esteem (自尊) and confidence can get a big boost. 【答案】1．A 2．C 3．G 4．E 5．D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了运动对身体和大脑的好处。 1．上文“But here’s a question: Should we be so addicted to sports?
