Grammarly is a writing assistant that job seekers, writers, and other professionals can use to proofread and edit their documents. It checks for spelling, grammar, and punctuation (标点符号) errors, and enhances vocabulary usage. How does Grammarly work? Grammarly gives your document an overall score based on the number of issues and errors it’s found. It then walks you through a series of possible grammatical problems, one at a time. Both a short and a long explanation are provided by the system for each issue that’s identified. Specific wording alternatives are suggested by the system in some cases. But it’s left to the user to make any specific changes — Grammarly won’t force your hand. You have the option of ignoring possible problems if you don’t agree with the recommended changes. A handy originality checker can help writers identify any unintentionally borrowed content. The system points out similar text that exists elsewhere, and it suggests citations that can be added to legitimize the text in question. A word choice checker is available that enables users to choose optional wording and to avoid repetition. Advantages of Grammarly Using Grammarly is always a great decision because it saves you valuable time. It can quickly discover and resolve various kinds of errors, allowing users to concentrate on generating quality content rather than technical details. Grammarly encourages you to maintain simplicity and clarity in your work. This easily ensures that your writing is easy to follow. Disadvantages of Grammarly Grammarly is not perfect. It can occasionally miss mistakes or make inaccurate corrections to your work. One of Grammarly’s biggest weaknesses is that it might lead to over-reliance on its sweet-alluring technology. Some Grammarly users may become so reliant on it that they fail to develop their writing skills. 1．How does Grammarly serve the users? A．Lt rewrites the documents for free. B．It gives suggestions on creative ideas. C．It automatically removes the errors in the text. D．It identifies spelling, grammar, and vocabulary issues. 2．Which function of Grammarly helps users recognize accidentally copied material? A．A handy originality checker. B．An overall score calculator. C．A word choice checker. D．A grammar explainer. 3．Using Grammarly, one will ________. A．focus on technical issues B．discover any possible errors C．work on their writing efficiently D．develop their writing skills quickly 【答案】1．D 2．A 3．C 【导语】这是一篇应用文。文章介绍写作辅助工具Grammarly，包括其功能、工作方式，阐述使用它的优势与不足。 1．细节理解题。根据第一段第二句“It checks for spelling, grammar, and punctuation errors, and enhances vocabulary usage. (它检查拼写、语法和标点错误，并提升词汇用法。)”可知，Grammarly通过识别拼写、语法和词汇问题来为用户服务。故选D项。 2．细节理解题。根据第四段第一句“A handy originality checker can help writers identify any unintentionally borrowed content. (一个便捷的原创性检查器可以帮助作者识别任何无意借用的内容。)”可知，是便捷的原创性检查器帮助用户识别意外抄袭的材料。故选A项。 3．细节理解题。根据第六段第一、二句“Using Grammarly is always a great decision because it saves you valuable time. It can quickly discover and resolve various kinds of errors, allowing users to concentrate on generating quality content rather than technical details. (使用 Grammarly 总是一个很棒的决定，因为它节省你宝贵的时间。它可以快速发现并解决各种错误，让用户专注于生成高质量内容而非技术细节。)”可知，使用Grammarly，人们可以高效地进行写作。故选C项。 [方法1]、先题后文法 应用文体文章比较长，此时我们不必记住所有信息，可以先阅读题目，带着问题阅读，多注意细节，如时间、地点、人物或数据等，简明扼要地抓住所需信息，理解文章内容。尤其是广告文章的阅读一般采取跳读、略读等快速阅读法，快速浏览信息，搜索对比。对文中信息的快速处理能力是考查阅读理解能力的重要方面。 [方法2]、题干定位法 应用文阅读材料包含的某一方面的信息非常全面，能满足各种人对信息的需求，但在试题中，常常是就某一点提问，以细节理解题为主，考生完全没有必要从头到尾全部仔细阅读，因为材料中有很多冗余无效信息。做此类题时，宜采用＂题干定位法＂，即先阅读题干，然后根据问题要求，按照题目顺序依次有针对性地结合题干关键词到文中定位答案范围，阅读相关部分，快速寻找有效信息，再把原文和选项相比较。问题与材料相同→对号入座；问题与原文相同→同义替换、归纳事实等。 [方法3]. 选项排除法 排除法在应用文阅读中也应用得较多，即排除与文章内容不一致的错误信息，从而确定正确选项。应用文阅读理解设题以细节理解题为主，因此，阅读这类文章时，应该在整体把握文章结构的前提下，主要注意细节信息。细节题的题干都是相应原文的变形(如同义改写、词性转换等)，因此要找到答案一定要找到题干在原文中的出处，再把原文和选项相比较。做题时，根据所提问题用寻读、跳读的方法可达到事半功倍的效果。同时，在阅读时也要特别注意文中以粗体、大写、下划线等方式加以提示的文字，因为这很有可能是文章的核心或某一部分内容的概括。 Passage（1） （24-25高三上·北京昌平·期末）Founded in 2014, Remerge has established itself as a leading app targeting players globally, with offices spanning Berlin, New York, Singapore and so on.

Start a play street — a community event where neighbors close their road to traffic, creating a safe space for children to play. This event allows kids and adults to explore, create and socialize, which, undoubtedly, will bring the bonds between neighbors to a new height. Compared to structured plays with strict rules and fixed procedures, a play street allows children to lead, establish rules and get involved in an open-ended activity without specific instructions, methods or goals. Getting Started: 1. Host a meeting to discuss benefits and encourage involvement. Choose an event date and assign tasks to the neighbors. 2. Reach out to city councils (市委会) for necessary permits to close the road. Ignoring this will lead to the cancellation of the whole plan. 3. Use posters, flyers, and social media to spread the word. Using these promotion means to inform residents of the date, time and activities planned for the play street. 4. Set up barriers for safety, provide equipment and encourage neighbors’ participation. What to Expect: ·Game Areas: A variety of play equipment tailored for kids, such as jump ropes, balls, chalk for drawing, hula hoops and other outdoor games. ·Swapping Corner: A place where moms can bring unwanted items such as kitchenware, gardening tools or other household goods to exchange with each other. ·Arts and Crafts Seating: Arts and crafts seating with materials like paper, markers, crayons, paints and brushes. Children are encouraged to get creative and express themselves through art. ·Snack and Refreshment Station: Light refreshments like water, juice, fruit and healthy snacks to keep mixed-age participants energized. A potluck to share homemade treats and recipes. 1．What is the purpose of “a play street”? A．To prevent city traffic jams. B．To strengthen community bonds. C．To explore kids’ artistic potential.

This event allows kids and adults to explore, create and socialize, which, undoubtedly, will bring the bonds between neighbors to a new height. (创建一个游戏街——一个社区活动，让邻居们关闭他们的道路，为孩子们创造一个安全的玩耍空间。这一举措允许孩子和成年人探索，创造和社交，这无疑将把邻居之间的联系带到一个新的高度。)”可知，“游戏街”的目的是加强社区纽带。故选B。 2．细节理解题。根据Getting Started部分中“2. Reach out to city councils (市委会) for necessary permits to close the road. Ignoring this will lead to the cancellation of the whole plan. (2. 向市议会申请必要的封路许可。忽视这一点将导致整个计划的取消。)”可知，举办这个活动必须请求当局批准。故选C。 3．细节理解题。根据What to Expect部分中“Snack and Refreshment Station: Light refreshments like water, juice, fruit and healthy snacks to keep mixed-age participants energized. A potluck to share homemade treats and recipes.

Read on as we look at some of our favourite social games. Slots Millions of people developed a passion for slots during their young age, which often stays with them into adulthood. Operators offer hundreds of different titles to suit every budget level, making them a great way to spend your social time. Bingo Bingo was a main social activity for the working class in the UK after World War II and remains popular today. Land-based venues still host games regularly, although most players favor modern bingo sites where they can interact with others via attached chatrooms. It can also be played ‘live’ with friends and family at home, and even incorporate a winter theme. Poker While the Internet makes it easy to access poker games, we prefer organising a ‘poker night’ at home with friends and family. You can set up a game that costs just a few pounds. A single game with five or six players can take two or three hours, making it the perfect platform to build a social get-together. Upwords Players are required to build words using letter tiles on a gameboard. Letters can be piled on top of others already on the board to create new words. The higher the pile of letters, the more points are scored, which typically makes words built later in the game more valuable. 1．Which activity might recall memories of the childhood? A．Slots. B．Bingo. C．Poker. D．Upwords. 2．What do Bingo and Poker have in common? A．They both suit every budget level. B．They can be both played online and offline. C．They can both be combined with a winter theme. D．They both originated in the UK during World War II. 3．What is the main purpose of this passage? A．To persuade people to stay occupied in winter. B．To introduce different creative types of winter sports. C．To recommend some popular social games for winter. D．To compare the differences between various social games. 【答案】1．A 2．B 3．C 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要讨论了冬季时人们可以玩的几种社交游戏。 1．细节理解题。根据Slots中的“Millions of people developed a passion for slots during their young age, which often stays with them into adulthood. (数以百万计的人在年轻时就对老虎机产生了热情，这种热情往往会伴随他们到成年。)”可知很多人年轻时就开始喜欢老虎机（slots），所以老虎机可以唤起童年的记忆，故选A。 2．细节理解题。根据Bingo中的“Land-based venues still host games regularly, although most players favor modern bingo sites where they can interact with others via attached chatrooms. (陆上场地仍然定期举办游戏，尽管大多数玩家更喜欢现代的bingo游戏网站，在那里他们可以通过附加的聊天室与他人互动。)”和Poker中的“While the Internet makes it easy to access poker games, we prefer organising a ‘poker night’ at home with friends and family. (虽然互联网使人们很容易接触到poker游戏，但我们更喜欢在家里和朋友和家人一起组织一个“poker之夜”。)”可知两种游戏的共同点就是都可以网上玩或者是线下玩，故选B。 3．推理判断题。根据第一段“Playing social games is an excellent way to stay occupied during winter. Read on as we look at some of our favourite social games. (玩社交游戏是冬季消遣的好方法。让我们来看看一些我们最喜欢的社交游戏。)”以及下文游戏的介绍可推断作者写作的目的就是推荐一些冬季流行的社交游戏。故选C。 Passage（5） （2025·北京·二模）Museums have changed. We’ll always have the Met in New York and the Louvre in Paris, but nowadays you’ll find a museum for absolutely everything and everyone. Here are some interesting museums. Museum of Bad Art(Boston, Massachusetts) The mission of MOBA is to collect, exhibit and celebrate art that will be shown in no other venue. Highlights include Lucy in the Field with Flowers, a painting found in 1993 leaning against a trash barrel, waiting for garbage collection. This painting was the first of the MOBA collection. A low point and a must-see — is the painting Our Lady or Perpetual Housework. The Mob Museum (Las Vegas, Nevada) This 1933 former U. S. post office and federal courtroom was bought by the city of Las Vegas in 2002 for $1, with the condition it be used for something cultural, like a museum. Officially the National Museum of Organized Crime and Law Enforcement, this museum tells a visual story of the war between the mob and the police. The museum ends its tour by inviting you into a fully operational — and legal — speakeasy. International Tennis Hall of Fame (Newport, Rhode island) This museum was built on the site of the first United States National Lawn Tennis Championships in1881(which grew into the U. S. Open in New York). A highlight is a Kings Court for “court tennis,” first played by monks and kings dating back to 1538. In this ancient game, the ball can bounce off the walls and windows and still be in play. There are only 10 such courts in North America, as they cost approximately $3 million to make. 1．What do we know about the Museum of Bad Art? A．Its collections are all masterpieces. B．It is the most popular museum in Boston. C．It aims to show art not displayed elsewhere. D．It only exhibits paintings found near trash barrels. 2．Why was the former U. S. post office and federal courtroom sold for just $1? A．Because the building was in bad condition. B．Because the building was linked with illegal activities. C．Because the owner wanted to give it away for charity. D．Because the city agreed to use it for cultural purposes. 3．Where might this passage be taken from? A．A travel magazine. B．A sports brochure.C．A history textbook. D．A research paper. 【答案】1．C 2．D 3．A 【导语】这是一篇应用文。文章介绍了三个别具特色的博物馆：收藏另类画作的波士顿糟糕艺术博物馆、展现黑帮警匪故事的拉斯维加斯黑帮博物馆、源于网球赛事场地的罗德岛国际网球名人堂。 1．细节理解题。根据第二段第一句“The mission of MOBA is to collect, exhibit and celebrate art that will be shown in no other venue.(MOBA 的使命是收集、展览和赞美那些不会在其他任何地方展出的艺术品。)”可知，该博物馆旨在展示其他地方不会展示的艺术作品。故选C项。 2．细节理解题。根据第三段第一句“This 1933 former U.S. post office and federal courtroom was bought by the city of Las Vegas in 2002 for $1, with the condition it be used for something cultural, like a museum.(这座 1933 年建成的前美国邮局和联邦法庭在 2002 年被拉斯维加斯市以 1 美元买下，条件是将其用于文化用途，比如建博物馆。)”可知，这座建筑以1美元出售是因为该市同意将其用于文化目的。故选D项。 3．推理判断题。通读全文特别是第一段“Museums have changed. We’ll always have the Met in New York and the Louvre in Paris, but nowadays you’ll find a museum for absolutely everything and everyone. Here are some interesting museums.(博物馆已经发生了变化。我们总是有纽约的大都会博物馆和巴黎的卢浮宫，但现在你会发现一个绝对适合所有人的博物馆。这里有一些有趣的博物馆。)”可知，文章主要介绍了三个不同地方有趣的博物馆，介绍了它们的特色等内容。结合选项可知，A选项“旅游杂志”符合这种介绍各地特色景点的风格。故选A项。 Passage（6） （2025·北京海淀·一模）Hong Kong was once seen as a cultural desert. But since around 1997, when it returned to China, the idea of an arts enclave (艺术飞地) emerged. After nearly 30 years, the West Kowloon Cultural District has formed, with world-class venues. Here’s a guide to what’s new. Free Space As the name suggests, this performing-arts center is designed to be flexible and imaginative. The bunker-like complex houses a black box theater and studios for experimental performances and dance, as well as the Lau Bak Livehouse, a coffeehouse and bar with live music on weekends. Hong Kong Palace Museum Resembling a Chinese gold ingot (金元宝), this museum showcases artifacts from China’s imperial palaces, including Ming dynasty ceramics, scroll paintings, and double-headed dragons from the National Palace Museum in Beijing’s Forbidden City. Art Park Hugging the waterfront promenade, this expansive lawn is an ideal place for joggers, picnickers, museum-goers, and dog walkers. There are more than a dozen places to eat and drink throughout — around sunset, grab a seat at one of the harbor side cafés below the Palace Museum. The facilities are spotless, too. Xiqu Center This performance hall, which hosts Cantonese opera, has an exterior with aluminum shingles that resemble fish scales. A large opening fills the atrium (中庭) with breezes and natural light. Even if xiqu (Chinese opera) isn’t your cup of tea, the public atrium is an inviting place to rest before exploring the shops along Canton Road. 1．What do Free Space and Art Park have in common? A．People can walk dogs there. B．People can enjoy coffee there. C．People can listen to music there.

Grammarly is a writing assistant that job seekers, writers, and other professionals can use to proofread and edit their documents. It checks for spelling, grammar, and punctuation (标点符号) errors, and enhances vocabulary usage. How does Grammarly work? Grammarly gives your document an overall score based on the number of issues and errors it’s found. It then walks you through a series of possible grammatical problems, one at a time. Both a short and a long explanation are provided by the system for each issue that’s identified. Specific wording alternatives are suggested by the system in some cases. But it’s left to the user to make any specific changes — Grammarly won’t force your hand. You have the option of ignoring possible problems if you don’t agree with the recommended changes. A handy originality checker can help writers identify any unintentionally borrowed content. The system points out similar text that exists elsewhere, and it suggests citations that can be added to legitimize the text in question. A word choice checker is available that enables users to choose optional wording and to avoid repetition. Advantages of Grammarly Using Grammarly is always a great decision because it saves you valuable time. It can quickly discover and resolve various kinds of errors, allowing users to concentrate on generating quality content rather than technical details. Grammarly encourages you to maintain simplicity and clarity in your work. This easily ensures that your writing is easy to follow. Disadvantages of Grammarly Grammarly is not perfect. It can occasionally miss mistakes or make inaccurate corrections to your work. One of Grammarly’s biggest weaknesses is that it might lead to over-reliance on its sweet-alluring technology. Some Grammarly users may become so reliant on it that they fail to develop their writing skills. 1．How does Grammarly serve the users? A．Lt rewrites the documents for free. B．It gives suggestions on creative ideas. C．It automatically removes the errors in the text. D．It identifies spelling, grammar, and vocabulary issues. 2．Which function of Grammarly helps users recognize accidentally copied material? A．A handy originality checker. B．An overall score calculator. C．A word choice checker. D．A grammar explainer. 3．Using Grammarly, one will ________. A．focus on technical issues B．discover any possible errors C．work on their writing efficiently D．develop their writing skills quickly [方法1]、先题后文法 应用文体文章比较长，此时我们不必记住所有信息，可以先阅读题目，带着问题阅读，多注意细节，如时间、地点、人物或数据等，简明扼要地抓住所需信息，理解文章内容。尤其是广告文章的阅读一般采取跳读、略读等快速阅读法，快速浏览信息，搜索对比。对文中信息的快速处理能力是考查阅读理解能力的重要方面。 [方法2]、题干定位法 应用文阅读材料包含的某一方面的信息非常全面，能满足各种人对信息的需求，但在试题中，常常是就某一点提问，以细节理解题为主，考生完全没有必要从头到尾全部仔细阅读，因为材料中有很多冗余无效信息。做此类题时，宜采用＂题干定位法＂，即先阅读题干，然后根据问题要求，按照题目顺序依次有针对性地结合题干关键词到文中定位答案范围，阅读相关部分，快速寻找有效信息，再把原文和选项相比较。问题与材料相同→对号入座；问题与原文相同→同义替换、归纳事实等。 [方法3]. 选项排除法 排除法在应用文阅读中也应用得较多，即排除与文章内容不一致的错误信息，从而确定正确选项。应用文阅读理解设题以细节理解题为主，因此，阅读这类文章时，应该在整体把握文章结构的前提下，主要注意细节信息。细节题的题干都是相应原文的变形(如同义改写、词性转换等)，因此要找到答案一定要找到题干在原文中的出处，再把原文和选项相比较。做题时，根据所提问题用寻读、跳读的方法可达到事半功倍的效果。同时，在阅读时也要特别注意文中以粗体、大写、下划线等方式加以提示的文字，因为这很有可能是文章的核心或某一部分内容的概括。 Passage（1） （24-25高三上·北京昌平·期末）Founded in 2014, Remerge has established itself as a leading app targeting players globally, with offices spanning Berlin, New York, Singapore and so on.

Start a play street — a community event where neighbors close their road to traffic, creating a safe space for children to play. This event allows kids and adults to explore, create and socialize, which, undoubtedly, will bring the bonds between neighbors to a new height. Compared to structured plays with strict rules and fixed procedures, a play street allows children to lead, establish rules and get involved in an open-ended activity without specific instructions, methods or goals. Getting Started: 1. Host a meeting to discuss benefits and encourage involvement. Choose an event date and assign tasks to the neighbors. 2. Reach out to city councils (市委会) for necessary permits to close the road. Ignoring this will lead to the cancellation of the whole plan. 3. Use posters, flyers, and social media to spread the word. Using these promotion means to inform residents of the date, time and activities planned for the play street. 4. Set up barriers for safety, provide equipment and encourage neighbors’ participation. What to Expect: ·Game Areas: A variety of play equipment tailored for kids, such as jump ropes, balls, chalk for drawing, hula hoops and other outdoor games. ·Swapping Corner: A place where moms can bring unwanted items such as kitchenware, gardening tools or other household goods to exchange with each other. ·Arts and Crafts Seating: Arts and crafts seating with materials like paper, markers, crayons, paints and brushes. Children are encouraged to get creative and express themselves through art. ·Snack and Refreshment Station: Light refreshments like water, juice, fruit and healthy snacks to keep mixed-age participants energized. A potluck to share homemade treats and recipes. 1．What is the purpose of “a play street”? A．To prevent city traffic jams. B．To strengthen community bonds. C．To explore kids’ artistic potential. D．To involve children in structured plays. 2．What is a must to hold the event? A．Raising funds from the public. B．Posting the safety regulations. C．Asking for authorities’ approval.

Passage（4） （2025·北京·一模）Playing social games is an excellent way to stay occupied during winter. Read on as we look at some of our favourite social games. Slots Millions of people developed a passion for slots during their young age, which often stays with them into adulthood. Operators offer hundreds of different titles to suit every budget level, making them a great way to spend your social time. Bingo Bingo was a main social activity for the working class in the UK after World War II and remains popular today. Land-based venues still host games regularly, although most players favor modern bingo sites where they can interact with others via attached chatrooms. It can also be played ‘live’ with friends and family at home, and even incorporate a winter theme. Poker While the Internet makes it easy to access poker games, we prefer organising a ‘poker night’ at home with friends and family. You can set up a game that costs just a few pounds. A single game with five or six players can take two or three hours, making it the perfect platform to build a social get-together. Upwords Players are required to build words using letter tiles on a gameboard. Letters can be piled on top of others already on the board to create new words. The higher the pile of letters, the more points are scored, which typically makes words built later in the game more valuable. 1．Which activity might recall memories of the childhood? A．Slots. B．Bingo. C．Poker. D．Upwords. 2．What do Bingo and Poker have in common? A．They both suit every budget level. B．They can be both played online and offline. C．They can both be combined with a winter theme. D．They both originated in the UK during World War II. 3．What is the main purpose of this passage? A．To persuade people to stay occupied in winter. B．To introduce different creative types of winter sports. C．To recommend some popular social games for winter. D．To compare the differences between various social games. Passage（5） （2025·北京·二模）Museums have changed. We’ll always have the Met in New York and the Louvre in Paris, but nowadays you’ll find a museum for absolutely everything and everyone. Here are some interesting museums. Museum of Bad Art(Boston, Massachusetts) The mission of MOBA is to collect, exhibit and celebrate art that will be shown in no other venue. Highlights include Lucy in the Field with Flowers, a painting found in 1993 leaning against a trash barrel, waiting for garbage collection. This painting was the first of the MOBA collection. A low point and a must-see — is the painting Our Lady or Perpetual Housework. The Mob Museum (Las Vegas, Nevada) This 1933 former U. S. post office and federal courtroom was bought by the city of Las Vegas in 2002 for $1, with the condition it be used for something cultural, like a museum. Officially the National Museum of Organized Crime and Law Enforcement, this museum tells a visual story of the war between the mob and the police. The museum ends its tour by inviting you into a fully operational — and legal — speakeasy. International Tennis Hall of Fame (Newport, Rhode island) This museum was built on the site of the first United States National Lawn Tennis Championships in1881(which grew into the U. S. Open in New York). A highlight is a Kings Court for “court tennis,” first played by monks and kings dating back to 1538. In this ancient game, the ball can bounce off the walls and windows and still be in play. There are only 10 such courts in North America, as they cost approximately $3 million to make. 1．What do we know about the Museum of Bad Art? A．Its collections are all masterpieces. B．It is the most popular museum in Boston. C．It aims to show art not displayed elsewhere. D．It only exhibits paintings found near trash barrels. 2．Why was the former U. S. post office and federal courtroom sold for just $1? A．Because the building was in bad condition. B．Because the building was linked with illegal activities. C．Because the owner wanted to give it away for charity. D．Because the city agreed to use it for cultural purposes. 3．Where might this passage be taken from? A．A travel magazine. B．A sports brochure.C．A history textbook. D．A research paper. Passage（6） （2025·北京海淀·一模）Hong Kong was once seen as a cultural desert. But since around 1997, when it returned to China, the idea of an arts enclave (艺术飞地) emerged. After nearly 30 years, the West Kowloon Cultural District has formed, with world-class venues. Here’s a guide to what’s new. Free Space As the name suggests, this performing-arts center is designed to be flexible and imaginative. The bunker-like complex houses a black box theater and studios for experimental performances and dance, as well as the Lau Bak Livehouse, a coffeehouse and bar with live music on weekends. Hong Kong Palace Museum Resembling a Chinese gold ingot (金元宝), this museum showcases artifacts from China’s imperial palaces, including Ming dynasty ceramics, scroll paintings, and double-headed dragons from the National Palace Museum in Beijing’s Forbidden City. Art Park Hugging the waterfront promenade, this expansive lawn is an ideal place for joggers, picnickers, museum-goers, and dog walkers. There are more than a dozen places to eat and drink throughout — around sunset, grab a seat at one of the harbor side cafés below the Palace Museum. The facilities are spotless, too. Xiqu Center This performance hall, which hosts Cantonese opera, has an exterior with aluminum shingles that resemble fish scales. A large opening fills the atrium (中庭) with breezes and natural light.
