Then I understood the 28 was that many people could help us to 29 the aim. So the conclusion was that helping others was the best way to get more and more people to benefit us.”
Disappointed and furious, the greedy man 30 off, desperate at having lost everything to the hare-brained schemes (轻率的计划) of a madman.

My dearest granddaughter,
By the time you read this, I’ll be gone. But I want to share with you the story that shaped our family’s legacy (遗产) —a tale of gratitude that echoed (流传) through generations.
It was 1955, and I was just a young girl of 12. Times were hard, and our family struggled to make ends meet. One particularly hard winter, we had nothing left but a few potatoes and a little candle. That’s when a knock on the door changed everything. Mrs. Thompson, our neighbor, stood there with a basket full of food. “I’m thankful for good neighbors,” she said simply, pressing the basket into my mother’s hands before hurrying away. That night, as we enjoyed our unexpected meal, my father declared, “When we have enough, we must remember this kindness and pass it on.”
Years passed, and our fortunes improved. True to his word, my father always found ways to help others, saying it was an echo of Mrs. Thompson’ s kindness. I watched as he slipped groceries onto the porches (门廊) of struggling families, secretly paid for children’s school supplies, and volunteered at the local shelter.
One day, while volunteering, he met a young man named Jack —your grandfather. Jack had fallen on hard times but was determined to turn his life around. My father took him under his wing, helping him find a job and a place to live. Jack, filled with gratitude, threw himself into his work and studies. He often said, “I’m just echoing the kindness shown to me.” It was his gratitude and determination that first drew me to him.
As our family grew, your grandfather and I made sure to keep the echo alive. We taught your mother, and her siblings, the importance of being thankful and paying kindness forward.
Now, my dear Emma, I pass this story to you. Our family’s echo of thankfulness has touched countless lives over the years. Some we know about, like the scholarship fund your mother started, but many more we’ ll never know.
Remember, gratitude is not just a feeling —it’s an action. It has the power to create ripples(涟漪) that turn into waves, touching lives far beyond our own.
With all my love,
Grandma
41.How did the family feel about Mrs. Thompson’s action?
A.Puzzled. B.Surprised. C.Grateful. D.Skeptical.

A.The way Grandma helped others.
B.Grandma watched her father helping others.
C.Over the years, my family’s life has greatly improved.
D.Mrs. Thompson’s kindness had a profound effect on Grandma’s father.
43.By saying “It was his gratitude and determination that first drew me to him.” in Paragraph 4, grandma means ________.
A.she fell in love with Jack B.Jack was a determined person
C.Jack helped her with her work and studies D.She could feel Jack’s gratitude and determination.
44.Grandma wrote this letter was to ________.
A.recall her life B.point out the importance of being thankful
C.tell Emma the history of the family D.pass on a family tradition of echoing the kindness

Is It Worth Buying Organic Food?
Organic food, grown without artificial chemicals, is increasingly popular nowadays. Consumers have been willing to pay up to twice as much for goods with organic labels. However, if you think paying a little more for organic food gets you a more nutritious and safer product, you might want to save your money. A study led by researchers at Stanford University says that organic products aren’t necessarily more nutritious, and they’re no less likely to suffer from disease-causing bacteria, either.
The latest results, published in the Annuals of Internal Medicine, suggest that buyers may be wasting their money. “We did not find strong evidence that organic food is more nutritious or healthier,” says Dr. Crystal Smith-Spangler from Stanford. “So consumers shouldn’t assume that one type of food has a lower risk or is safer.”
For their new study, Smith-Spangler and her colleagues conducted a review of two categories of research, including 17 studies that compared health outcomes between consumers of organic against traditional food products, and 223 studies that analyzed the nutritional content of the foods, including key vitamins, minerals and fats.
While the researchers found little difference in nutritional content, they did find that organic fruit and vegetables were 20% less likely to have chemicals remaining on the surfaces. Neither organic nor traditional foods showed levels of chemicals high enough to go beyond food safety standards. And both organic and traditional meats, such as chicken and pork, were equally likely to be harmed by bacteria at very low rates. The researchers did find that organic milk and chicken contained higher levels of omega-3 fatty acids, a healthy fat also found in fish that can reduce the risk of heart disease. However, these nutritional differences were too small, and the researchers were unwilling to make much of them until further studies confirm the trends.
Organic food is produced with fewer chemicals and more natural-growing practices, but that doesn’t always translate into a more nutritious or healthier product. The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) states that “Whether you buy organic or not, finding the freshest foods available may have the biggest effect on taste.” Fresh food is at least as good as anything marketed as organic.
46.The new research questions whether organic food ________.
A.should replace traditional food B.has been overpriced by farmers
C.is grown with less harmful chemicals D.is really more nutritious and healthier
47.How did Smith-Spangler and her colleague conduct their new study?
A.They conducted experiments to grow organic and traditional foods.
B.They conducted experiments to analyze the nutritional content of the foods.
C.They reviewed previous studies to examine health outcomes and nutritious content.
D.They collected data by surveying consumers of organic and traditional food products.
48.Smith Spangler and her colleagues found that ________.
A.organic food could reduce the risk of heart disease
B.traditional food was grown with more natural methods
C.both organic and traditional food they examined were safe
D.there was not a presence of any forms of bacteria in organic food
49.Which of the following is relatively healthier according to the passage?
A.Organic chicken and pork. B.Organic milk and chicken.
C.Traditional chicken and pork. D.Traditional fruit and vegetables.
50.What is the author’s attitude toward organic food?
A.Doubtful. B.Positive. C.Unconcerned. D.Approving.
D
To learn to think is to learn to question. Those who don’t question never truly think for themselves. These are simple rules that have governed the advancement of science and human thought since the beginning of time. Advancements are made when thinkers question theories (理论) and introduce new ones. Unfortunately, it is often the great and respected thinkers who end up slowing the progress of human thought. Aristotle was a brilliant philosopher whose theories explained much of the natural world, often incorrectly. He was so respected by the scientific community that even 1,200 years after his death, scientists were still trying to build upon his mistakes rather than correct them!
Brilliant minds can intimidate up-and-coming thinkers who are not confident of their abilities. They often believe they are not as good as the minds of giants such as Aristotle, leading many to accept current ideas instead of questioning them.
I, like many thinkers of the past, once believed in my mental weakness. I was certain that my parents, my teachers— adults in general— were always right. They were like a textbook to me; I didn’t question what was written on those pages. I respected them, and accepted whatever they told me. But that attitude soon changed. My mind’s independence was first developed in the classroom.
A stern, 65-year-old elementary-school science teacher once told me that light is a type of wave. I confidently went through years of school believing that light is a wave. One day, however, I heard the German exchange student mention that light could be made up of particles (粒子). As the others laughed at his statement, I started to question my beliefs.
Maybe the teachers and textbooks hadn’t given me the whole story. I went to the library, did some research and learned of the light-as-a-wave versus light-as-a-particle debate. I read about Einstein’s discovery of the dual nature of light and learned the facts of a paradox (悖论) that puzzles the world’s greatest thinkers to this day. Light behaves as both a particle and a wave. I realized I had gone through life accepting only half of the story as the whole truth.
Each new year brought more new facts, and I formulated even more questions. I found myself in the library after school, trying to find my own answers to gain a more complete understanding of what I thought I already knew. I discovered that my parents and teachers are good tools in my quest for knowledge, but they are never the final word. Even textbooks can be challenged. I learned to question my sources, I learned to be a thinker. I once believed that everything I learned at home and at school was certain, but I have now discovered to re-examine when necessary.
Questions are said to be the path to knowledge and truth, and I plan to continue questioning. How many things do we know for sure today that we will question in the future? At this moment, I know that our sun will burn for another five billion years, and I know nothing can escape the gravity of a black hole. This knowledge, however, may change in the next 20 years — maybe even in the next two. The one thing we can control is our openness to discovery. Questions are the tools of open minds, and open minds are the key to intellectual advancement.
51.In the first paragraph, Aristotle is taken as an example to show that ________.
A.huge influence of great thinkers may stop human thought from developing
B.great thinkers often make mistakes and then correct them
C.advancements are made when thinkers question theories
D.he is the greatest and respected philosopher of all time
52.What does the underlined word “intimidate” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A.Persuade. B.Encourage. C.Strengthen. D.Discourage.
53.The author began to question his previous beliefs because ________.
A.what he learned from textbooks before turned out to be wrong
B.he was laughed at by other students for his unacceptable statement
C.he was inspired by the different ideas from an exchange student
D.he was not satisfied with his life and desperate to achieve success

B.never doubts what he has learned in the textbook
C.is determined to be a thinker and questioner
D.always throws himself into the laboratory

When I was eight or nine years old, I wrote my first poem. My mother read the little poem and began to cry. “Buddy, you didn’t really write this beautiful, beautiful poem!”
Shyly, proud-bursting, I stammered that I had. She poured out her praise. Why, this poem was nothing short of genius! I glowed.
I spent the best part of that afternoon preparing for the arrival of my father. But he did not return until an hour late for dinner. “Ben, a beautiful thing has happened,” my mother began. “Buddy has written his first poem! And it’s beautiful, absolutely amazing.”
“If you don’t mind, I’d like to decide that for myself,” Father said.
That poem was only ten lines. But it seemed to take hours. I could hear my father breathing. “I think it’s lousy,” my father said.
“Ben, these are the first lines of poetry he’s ever written,” my mother was saying. “He needs encouragement.”
They quarreled over it. I couldn’t stand it another second. I ran from the dinning room bawling.
Up in my room I threw myself on the bed and sobbed.
A few years later I took a second look at that first poem; it was a pretty lousy poem. But it wasn’t until years later that the true meaning of that painful “first poem” experience dawned on me. As I became a professional writer, it became clearer and clearer to me how fortunate I had been. I had a mother who said, “Buddy, did you really write this? I think it’s wonderful!” and a father who shook his head no and drove me to tears with “I think it’s lousy.” A writer — in fact every one of us in life — needs that loving-mother force from which all creation flows; and yet alone it is incomplete, even misleading, finally destructive, without the father force to caution, “Watch. Listen. Review. Improve.”

考情速递
高考·新动向:天津高考英语卷在保持整体稳定的基础上呈现新趋势。各题型延续原有风格的同时,阅读部分通过提升词汇判定与语句分析难度,加强对学生语言综合能力及词汇积累的考查。试题选材立足学生日常生活,融入社会热点话题,既检测语言运用能力,又引导关注现实问题。这种"稳中求变"的命题特点,突显出对语言实用性、思维深度及时代性的综合考量,彰显了试卷与时俱进的教育导向。
高考·新情境:天津高考英语卷选材突出语言地道性与思想教育性,近年更强调素材的思想深度与广度。试题多选用英语国家原版素材并适度改编,内容涵盖文化、科技、社会等多元领域,展现英语文化多样性。考生通过研读此类篇章,既能提升语言应用能力,又可拓展国际视野,理解中外文化差异。这种选材模式既彰显对语言实用价值的重视,又通过创设文化新情境,体现命题引导学生关注思想内涵与跨文化认知的双重导向,强化了试卷的时代性与育人功能。
命题·大预测:1. 语境化与实用性深度融合:单项填空(如第1题“Keep it up”和第8题时态搭配)和完形填空(如第25题“gave away”)均强调在真实语境中灵活运用语言规则,而非孤立考查语法或词汇。2025高考英语将更注重语言的实际应用能力,要求考生通过上下文逻辑、情感线索选择答案,体现“语言服务于交流”的核心理念。
2. 跨学科与多元文化选材:阅读材料涵盖艺术课程广告(A篇)、家族感恩故事(B篇)、有机食品研究(C篇)及科学质疑精神(D篇),涉及艺术、社会学、科学等多领域知识。2025高考英语阅读将更多采用跨学科素材(如科技伦理、环境问题、文化对比),要求考生具备信息整合能力与跨学科思维,同时拓展国际视野。
3. 批判性思维与价值观引导:C篇(有机食品营养价值)和D篇(质疑与科学进步)要求考生评估信息可信度、分析作者态度;B篇通过家族故事传递“感恩与传承”的价值观。2025高考试题将强化对逻辑推理、辩证思维的考查,并融入传统文化、社会责任等主题,引导考生关注思想深度与社会价值。
4. 写作题型多样化,聚焦文化输出与思辨能力:书面表达要求推荐中国古典名著(如《红楼梦》),需结合文化背景阐述理由,体现文化自信与跨文化沟通能力。2025高考写作题可能涉及热点话题(如科技影响、环保倡议)、传统文化推介,要求考生提出具体建议并体现思辨能力,格式涵盖书信、演讲稿、倡议书等。
5. 情感线索与逻辑推理并重:完形填空通过寓言故事(分享财富的数学家和贪婪富人)传递哲理,需通过情感变化(如第35题“followed”)和逻辑关系推断答案。2025完形填空将继续以情感驱动情节发展,考生需结合人物心理、情节转折选择最佳选项,同时提升对复杂句式和篇章结构的理解能力。

My dearest granddaughter,
By the time you read this, I’ll be gone. But I want to share with you the story that shaped our family’s legacy (遗产) —a tale of gratitude that echoed (流传) through generations.
It was 1955, and I was just a young girl of 12. Times were hard, and our family struggled to make ends meet. One particularly hard winter, we had nothing left but a few potatoes and a little candle. That’s when a knock on the door changed everything. Mrs. Thompson, our neighbor, stood there with a basket full of food. “I’m thankful for good neighbors,” she said simply, pressing the basket into my mother’s hands before hurrying away. That night, as we enjoyed our unexpected meal, my father declared, “When we have enough, we must remember this kindness and pass it on.”
Years passed, and our fortunes improved. True to his word, my father always found ways to help others, saying it was an echo of Mrs. Thompson’ s kindness. I watched as he slipped groceries onto the porches (门廊) of struggling families, secretly paid for children’s school supplies, and volunteered at the local shelter.
One day, while volunteering, he met a young man named Jack —your grandfather. Jack had fallen on hard times but was determined to turn his life around. My father took him under his wing, helping him find a job and a place to live. Jack, filled with gratitude, threw himself into his work and studies. He often said, “I’m just echoing the kindness shown to me.” It was his gratitude and determination that first drew me to him.
As our family grew, your grandfather and I made sure to keep the echo alive. We taught your mother, and her siblings, the importance of being thankful and paying kindness forward.
Now, my dear Emma, I pass this story to you. Our family’s echo of thankfulness has touched countless lives over the years. Some we know about, like the scholarship fund your mother started, but many more we’ ll never know.
Remember, gratitude is not just a feeling —it’s an action. It has the power to create ripples(涟漪) that turn into waves, touching lives far beyond our own.
With all my love,
Grandma
41.How did the family feel about Mrs. Thompson’s action?
A.Puzzled. B.Surprised. C.Grateful. D.Skeptical.

43.By saying “It was his gratitude and determination that first drew me to him.” in Paragraph 4, grandma means ________.
A.she fell in love with Jack B.Jack was a determined person
C.Jack helped her with her work and studies D.She could feel Jack’s gratitude and determination.
44.Grandma wrote this letter was to ________.
A.recall her life B.point out the importance of being thankful

【答案】41.C 42.D 43.A 44.D 45.B
【导语】本文是书信形式的记叙文。这是一封祖母写给孙女的信,通过讲述家族中流传的感恩故事,传递了感恩的重要性和家族传承的价值。
41.推理判断题。根据第二段“Mrs. Thompson, our neighbor, stood there with a basket full of food. “I’m thankful for good neighbors,” she said simply, pressing the basket into my mother’s hands before hurrying away. That night, as we enjoyed our unexpected meal, my father declared, “When we have enough, we must remember this kindness and pass it on.”(我们的邻居Thompson夫人站在门口,手里提着一篮子食物。“我很感激有好邻居,”她简单地说,把篮子塞到我母亲手里后就匆匆离开了。那天晚上,当我们享用这顿意外的晚餐时,我父亲宣布:“当我们有足够的能力时,一定要记住这份恩情,并将它传递下去。”)”可知,这个家庭对Thompson夫人的善举非常感激。故选C。
42.主旨大意题。根据文章第三段“Years passed, and our fortunes improved. True to his word, my father always found ways to help others, saying it was an echo of Mrs. Thompson’ s kindness. I watched as he slipped groceries onto the porches (门廊) of struggling families, secretly paid for children’s school supplies, and volunteered at the local shelter. (岁月流逝,我们家的境况逐渐好转。父亲信守承诺,总是想办法帮助别人,他说这是Thompson夫人善行的回响。我看到他悄悄把杂货放在贫困家庭的门廊上,偷偷为孩子们支付学习用品的费用,还在当地的收容所做志愿者。)”可知,第三段主要讲述了Thompson夫人的善举对祖母的父亲产生的影响,使得他信守承诺,总是想办法帮助别人。故选D。
43.推理判断题。根据文章第四段“One day, while volunteering, he met a young man named Jack —your grandfather. Jack had fallen on hard times but was determined to turn his life around. My father took him under his wing, helping him find a job and a place to live. Jack, filled with gratitude, threw himself into his work and studies. He often said, “I’m just echoing the kindness shown to me.” It was his gratitude and determination that first drew me to him.(有一天,父亲在做志愿者时遇到了一个名叫Jack的年轻人——也就是你的祖父。Jack当时陷入了困境,但他决心改变自己的生活。父亲对他关怀备至,帮他找到了一份工作和一个住处。Jack心怀感激,全身心地投入到工作和学习中。他常说:“我只是在传递别人给予我的善意。”正是他的感恩之心和坚定决心,让我第一次对他产生了好感。)”可推测,祖母的父亲在做志愿者时遇到了Jack,Jack当时陷入困境但决心改变生活,祖母的父亲帮助了他,Jack心怀感激并全身心投入工作和学习,正是他的感恩之心和坚定决心,让祖母第一次对他产生了好感。故选A。
44.推理判断题。根据文章内容可知,信件开篇祖母表明要和孙女分享一个塑造家族传承的感恩故事,接着讲述了1955年邻居Thompson太太在自家困难时送来食物,祖母的父亲承诺日子好过时将善意传递下去,后来祖母的父亲又帮助了祖父Jack,Jack心怀感恩并传递善意,祖母和祖父也教导子女感恩和传递善意,最后祖母将这个故事传给孙女Emma,强调感恩是一种行动,有强大的力量。故选D。
45.推理判断题。根据文章内容可知,祖母从邻居Thompson太太给予帮助,父亲承诺传递善意,到父亲帮助祖父、祖父心怀感恩继续传递善意,再到家族一直传承这种做法,最后将故事传给孙女,整个过程都围绕着感恩和传递善意展开,这表明信件传达的核心信息是人们应该学会感恩并传递善意。故选B。

Is It Worth Buying Organic Food?
Organic food, grown without artificial chemicals, is increasingly popular nowadays. Consumers have been willing to pay up to twice as much for goods with organic labels. However, if you think paying a little more for organic food gets you a more nutritious and safer product, you might want to save your money. A study led by researchers at Stanford University says that organic products aren’t necessarily more nutritious, and they’re no less likely to suffer from disease-causing bacteria, either.
The latest results, published in the Annuals of Internal Medicine, suggest that buyers may be wasting their money. “We did not find strong evidence that organic food is more nutritious or healthier,” says Dr. Crystal Smith-Spangler from Stanford. “So consumers shouldn’t assume that one type of food has a lower risk or is safer.”
For their new study, Smith-Spangler and her colleagues conducted a review of two categories of research, including 17 studies that compared health outcomes between consumers of organic against traditional food products, and 223 studies that analyzed the nutritional content of the foods, including key vitamins, minerals and fats.
While the researchers found little difference in nutritional content, they did find that organic fruit and vegetables were 20% less likely to have chemicals remaining on the surfaces. Neither organic nor traditional foods showed levels of chemicals high enough to go beyond food safety standards. And both organic and traditional meats, such as chicken and pork, were equally likely to be harmed by bacteria at very low rates. The researchers did find that organic milk and chicken contained higher levels of omega-3 fatty acids, a healthy fat also found in fish that can reduce the risk of heart disease. However, these nutritional differences were too small, and the researchers were unwilling to make much of them until further studies confirm the trends.
Organic food is produced with fewer chemicals and more natural-growing practices, but that doesn’t always translate into a more nutritious or healthier product. The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) states that “Whether you buy organic or not, finding the freshest foods available may have the biggest effect on taste.” Fresh food is at least as good as anything marketed as organic.
46.The new research questions whether organic food ________.
A.should replace traditional food B.has been overpriced by farmers
C.is grown with less harmful chemicals D.is really more nutritious and healthier
47.How did Smith-Spangler and her colleague conduct their new study?
A.They conducted experiments to grow organic and traditional foods.
B.They conducted experiments to analyze the nutritional content of the foods.
C.They reviewed previous studies to examine health outcomes and nutritious content.
D.They collected data by surveying consumers of organic and traditional food products.
48.Smith Spangler and her colleagues found that ________.
A.organic food could reduce the risk of heart disease
B.traditional food was grown with more natural methods
C.both organic and traditional food they examined were safe
D.there was not a presence of any forms of bacteria in organic food
49.Which of the following is relatively healthier according to the passage?
A.Organic chicken and pork. B.Organic milk and chicken.
C.Traditional chicken and pork. D.Traditional fruit and vegetables.
50.What is the author’s attitude toward organic food?
A.Doubtful. B.Positive. C.Unconcerned. D.Approving.
【答案】46.D 47.C 48.C 49.B 50.A
【导语】这是一篇说明文,主要介绍了有机食品不一定是更有营养、更健康这一事实,告诉人们没有必要多花钱购买有机食品。
46.细节理解题。根据第二段““We did not find strong evidence that organic food is more nutritious or healthier,” says Dr. Crystal Smith-Spangler from Stanford.(斯坦福大学的克里斯特尔·史密斯-斯潘格勒博士说:“我们没有发现强有力的证据表明有机食品更有营养或更健康。”)”可知,这项研究质疑有机食品更有营养更健康,故选D。
47.细节理解题。根据第三段“For their new study, Smith-Spangler and her colleagues conducted a review of two categories of research, including 17 studies that compared health outcomes between consumers of organic against traditional food products, and 223 studies that analyzed the nutritional content of the foods, including key vitamins, minerals and fats.(在他们的新研究中,史密斯-斯潘格勒和她的同事们对两类研究进行了回顾,其中17项研究比较了有机食品和传统食品消费者的健康结果,223项研究分析了食品的营养成分,包括关键的维生素、矿物质和脂肪)”可知,他们回顾了以前的研究,以检查健康结果和营养成分,进行他们的新研究。故选C。
48.细节理解题。根据第四段“Neither organic nor traditional foods showed levels of chemicals high enough to go beyond food safety standards.(有机食物和传统食物两者都没有出现化学物质超出食品安全标准的情况出现)”可知,他们所检查的食物都是安全可食用的,故选C。
49.细节理解题。根据第四段“The researchers did find that organic milk and chicken contained higher levels of omega-3 fatty acids, a healthy fat also found in fish that can reduce the risk of heart disease.(研究人员确实发现,有机牛奶和鸡肉含有更高水平的omega-3脂肪酸,这是一种健康的脂肪,也可以在鱼类中发现,可以降低患心脏病的风险)”可知,有机奶和鸡肉中的确含有一种减少心脏疾病风险的脂肪,所以这两种物质相对更安全。故选B。
50.推理判断题。根据第一段“However, if you think paying a little more for organic food gets you a more nutritious and safer product, you might want to save your money. A study led by researchers at Stanford University says that organic products aren’t necessarily more nutritious, and they’re no less likely to suffer from disease-causing bacteria, either.(然而,如果你认为多花点钱买有机食品会让你买到更有营养、更安全的产品,你可能想省下这笔钱。斯坦福大学的研究人员进行的一项研究表明,有机产品不一定更有营养,而且它们感染致病细菌的可能性也不低)”可知,作者认为花很多钱买有机食品很可能是在浪费钱,以及最后一段中引用美国农业部的话“The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) states that “Whether you buy organic or not, finding the freshest foods available may have the biggest effect on taste.” Fresh food is at least as good as anything marketed as organic.(美国农业部(USDA)表示:“无论你是否购买有机食品,找到最新鲜的食物可能对味道有最大的影响。”新鲜食品至少和市场上宣传的有机食品一样好)”可知,无论是否有机,最新鲜的食品对口味有最大的影响,由以上信息可判断,作者对有机食品持质疑的态度。故选A。
D
To learn to think is to learn to question. Those who don’t question never truly think for themselves. These are simple rules that have governed the advancement of science and human thought since the beginning of time. Advancements are made when thinkers question theories (理论) and introduce new ones. Unfortunately, it is often the great and respected thinkers who end up slowing the progress of human thought. Aristotle was a brilliant philosopher whose theories explained much of the natural world, often incorrectly. He was so respected by the scientific community that even 1,200 years after his death, scientists were still trying to build upon his mistakes rather than correct them!
Brilliant minds can intimidate up-and-coming thinkers who are not confident of their abilities. They often believe they are not as good as the minds of giants such as Aristotle, leading many to accept current ideas instead of questioning them.
I, like many thinkers of the past, once believed in my mental weakness. I was certain that my parents, my teachers— adults in general— were always right. They were like a textbook to me; I didn’t question what was written on those pages. I respected them, and accepted whatever they told me. But that attitude soon changed. My mind’s independence was first developed in the classroom.
A stern, 65-year-old elementary-school science teacher once told me that light is a type of wave. I confidently went through years of school believing that light is a wave. One day, however, I heard the German exchange student mention that light could be made up of particles (粒子). As the others laughed at his statement, I started to question my beliefs.
Maybe the teachers and textbooks hadn’t given me the whole story. I went to the library, did some research and learned of the light-as-a-wave versus light-as-a-particle debate. I read about Einstein’s discovery of the dual nature of light and learned the facts of a paradox (悖论) that puzzles the world’s greatest thinkers to this day. Light behaves as both a particle and a wave. I realized I had gone through life accepting only half of the story as the whole truth.
Each new year brought more new facts, and I formulated even more questions. I found myself in the library after school, trying to find my own answers to gain a more complete understanding of what I thought I already knew. I discovered that my parents and teachers are good tools in my quest for knowledge, but they are never the final word. Even textbooks can be challenged. I learned to question my sources, I learned to be a thinker. I once believed that everything I learned at home and at school was certain, but I have now discovered to re-examine when necessary.
Questions are said to be the path to knowledge and truth, and I plan to continue questioning. How many things do we know for sure today that we will question in the future? At this moment, I know that our sun will burn for another five billion years, and I know nothing can escape the gravity of a black hole. This knowledge, however, may change in the next 20 years — maybe even in the next two. The one thing we can control is our openness to discovery. Questions are the tools of open minds, and open minds are the key to intellectual advancement.
51.In the first paragraph, Aristotle is taken as an example to show that ________.
A.huge influence of great thinkers may stop human thought from developing
B.great thinkers often make mistakes and then correct them
C.advancements are made when thinkers question theories
D.he is the greatest and respected philosopher of all time
52.What does the underlined word “intimidate” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A.Persuade. B.Encourage. C.Strengthen. D.Discourage.
53.The author began to question his previous beliefs because ________.
A.what he learned from textbooks before turned out to be wrong
B.he was laughed at by other students for his unacceptable statement
C.he was inspired by the different ideas from an exchange student
D.he was not satisfied with his life and desperate to achieve success
54.According to the passage, the author ________.
A.looks down upon great thinkers all the time
B.never doubts what he has learned in the textbook
C.is determined to be a thinker and questioner
D.always throws himself into the laboratory
55.We can conclude from the last paragraph that ________.
A.the author is not quite sure about his future
B.questioning is necessary to promote advancement
C.the theory of black holes will change in two years
D.we human beings don’t dare to predict future.
【答案】51.A 52.D 53.C 54.C 55.B
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讲述了学会质疑是学会思考的关键,质疑能促进科学和人类思想的发展。
51.细节理解题。由文章第一段中“Unfortunately, it is often the great and respected thinkers who end up slowing the progress of human thought. Aristotle was a brilliant philosopher whose theories explained much of the natural world, often incorrectly. (不幸的是,往往是伟大而受人尊敬的思想家最终减缓了人类思想的进步。亚里士多德是一位杰出的哲学家,他的理论解释了自然界的大部分,但往往是错误的。)”可知,伟大思想家的巨大影响可能会阻止人类思想的发展。故选A。
52.词句猜测题。由文章第二段“Brilliant minds can intimidate up-and-coming thinkers who are not confident of their abilities. They often believe they are not as good as the minds of giants such as Aristotle, leading many to accept current ideas instead of questioning them. (聪明的头脑可以intimidate那些对自己的能力没有信心的有前途的思想家。他们经常认为自己不如亚里士多德等巨人的头脑好,导致许多人接受当前的想法,而不是质疑它们。)”可知,杰出的思想家可能会吓倒那些对自己能力不自信的新兴思想家,因此intimidate在这里的意思是“吓倒,使胆怯”。Discourage“使气馁”符合题意。故选D。
53.细节理解题。根据第四段中“One day, however, I heard the German exchange student mention that light could be made up of particles. As the others laughed at his statement, I started to question my beliefs. (然而有一天,我听到一位德国交换生提到光可以由粒子组成。当其他人嘲笑他的陈述时,我开始质疑我的信仰)”可知,作者开始质疑自己之前的信仰,因为他受到了一名交换生不同想法的启发,故选C。
54.细节理解题。由文章倒数第二段中“I learned to question my sources, I learned to be a thinker. I once believed that everything I learned at home and at school was certain, but I have now discovered to re-examine when necessary. (我学会了质疑我的消息来源,我学会了成为一个思想家。我曾经相信我在家里和学校学到的一切都是确定的,但现在我发现必要时要重新审视。)”和最后一段中“Questions are said to be the path to knowledge and truth, and I plan to continue questioning. (据说质疑是通往知识和真理的道路,我计划继续质疑。)”可知,作者决心成为一个思考者和质疑者。故选C。
55.推理判断题。通读最后一段,尤其是最后一段的“Questions are said to be the path to knowledge and truth, and I plan to continue questioning. (据说质疑是通往知识和真理的道路,我计划继续质疑。)”和“Questions are the tools of open minds, and open minds are the key to intellectual advancement. (质疑是开放思维的工具,而开放的思想是智力进步的关键)”可知,质疑是促进智力进步所必需的。故选B。

第三部分:写作
第一节:阅读表达(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
阅读短文,按照题目要求用英语回答问题。
When I was eight or nine years old, I wrote my first poem. My mother read the little poem and began to cry. “Buddy, you didn’t really write this beautiful, beautiful poem!”
Shyly, proud-bursting, I stammered that I had. She poured out her praise. Why, this poem was nothing short of genius! I glowed.
I spent the best part of that afternoon preparing for the arrival of my father. But he did not return until an hour late for dinner. “Ben, a beautiful thing has happened,” my mother began. “Buddy has written his first poem! And it’s beautiful, absolutely amazing.”
“If you don’t mind, I’d like to decide that for myself,” Father said.
That poem was only ten lines. But it seemed to take hours. I could hear my father breathing. “I think it’s lousy,” my father said.
“Ben, these are the first lines of poetry he’s ever written,” my mother was saying. “He needs encouragement.”
They quarreled over it. I couldn’t stand it another second. I ran from the dinning room bawling.
Up in my room I threw myself on the bed and sobbed.
A few years later I took a second look at that first poem; it was a pretty lousy poem. But it wasn’t until years later that the true meaning of that painful “first poem” experience dawned on me. As I became a professional writer, it became clearer and clearer to me how fortunate I had been. I had a mother who said, “Buddy, did you really write this? I think it’s wonderful!” and a father who shook his head no and drove me to tears with “I think it’s lousy.” A writer — in fact every one of us in life — needs that loving-mother force from which all creation flows; and yet alone it is incomplete, even misleading, finally destructive, without the father force to caution, “Watch. Listen. Review. Improve.”
56.How do you understand the underlined part in Paragraph 2?(no more than 8 words )
57.Why did the writer’s parents quarrel at dinner?(no more than 10 words )
58.What did the writer think of his first poem when he grew older?(no more than 8 words )
59.What does the last paragraph mainly talk about?(no more than 15 words )
60.What kind of parents do you need in life?(no more than 20 words )
【答案】
56.This poem was well-done./This poem was the same work of genius./This poem was almost wonderful/excellent.
57.Because they had different attitude towards the poem./Because they had different opinions about the poem.
58.It was lousy./It was very bad./It was a pretty lousy poem.
59.Everyone needs a loving mother and a strict father.
60.I need a mother who can encourage me and a father who can caution me. /I need parents who both love me./I need parents who always encourage me.
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章介绍的是作者父母对作者在七八岁时写的第一首诗歌的不同评价让作者认识到一个作家的成长既需要母亲的鼓励,也需要父亲的鞭策。
56.考查词句猜测。根据第一段中的“My mother read the little poem and began to cry. ‘Buddy, you didn’t really write this beautiful, beautiful poem!’(母亲读了这首小诗,哭了起来。“伙计,你不会真的写了这首非常非常漂亮的诗吧!”)”可知,母亲表扬作者的诗歌写的很好,第二段中的“Shyly, proud-bursting, I stammered that I had. She poured out her praise.( 我羞涩地,骄傲地,结结巴巴地说是我。她倾吐她的赞美之词。)”可知,作者听到母亲对诗歌的赞美之词感到非常的高兴,由此可推断,划线句子的意思是对作者诗歌的赞美。故答案为This poem was well-done./This poem was the same work of genius./This poem was almost wonderful/excellent.。
57.考查推理判断。根据第五段中的“That poem was only ten lines. But it seemed to take hours. I could hear my father breathing. ‘I think it’s lousy,’ my father said.( 那首诗只有十行。但这似乎要花好几个小时。我能听到父亲的呼吸声。“我觉得很糟糕,”父亲说。)”可知,父亲对作者写的诗歌并不满意,结合第三段中的“‘Ben, a beautiful thing has happened,’ my mother began. ‘Buddy has written his first poem! And it’s beautiful, absolutely amazing.’(“本,一件美好的事情发生了,”我妈妈开始说。“巴迪写了他的第一首诗!它很美,绝对令人惊叹。”)”可知,母亲认为作者写的是个很精彩,由此可以推断,父母两人吵架是因为他们的观点不一致。故答案是Because they had different attitude towards the poem./Because they had different opinions about the poem.。
58.考查细节理解。根据最后一段中的“A few years later I took a second look at that first poem; it was a pretty lousy poem.(几年后,我重新审视了那首诗;这是一首非常糟糕的诗。)”可知,几年后,作者在看到自己写的第一首诗歌后,感觉这首诗歌真的很糟糕。故答案是It was lousy./ It was very bad. /It was a pretty lousy poem.。
59.考查主旨大意。根据最后一段中的“A writer — in fact every one of us in life — needs that loving-mother force from which all creation flows; and yet alone it is incomplete, even misleading, finally destructive, without the father force to caution, “Watch. Listen. Review. Improve.”(一个作家——实际上是生活中的每一个人——都需要那种慈母般的力量,所有的创作都源自这种力量;然而,如果没有父亲的告诫,它是不完整的,甚至是误导的,最终是毁灭性的,“观察、倾听、审查、改善。”)”可知,作者认为生活中的每一个人只有一个爱自己的母亲是不完美的,还需要一个严厉的父亲才能让自己不断的进步,所以最后一段主要阐述的是人人都需要一位慈母和一位严父。故答案是Everyone needs a loving mother and a strict father.。
60.开放性题目。根据介绍的作者的写的第一首诗歌的经历以及最后一段中的“A writer—in fact every one of us in life—needs that loving-mother force from which all creation flows; and yet alone it is incomplete, even misleading, finally destructive, without the father force to caution, “Watch. Listen. Review. Improve.”(一个作家——实际上是生活中的每一个人——都需要那种慈母般的力量,所有的创作都源自这种力量;然而,如果没有父亲的告诫,它是不完整的,甚至是误导的,最终是毁灭性的,“观察、倾听、审查、改善。”)”可知,人们都需要一个鼓励自己,爱护自己的而母亲,也需要一位客观公正的父亲,所以在生活中,我需要的也是一位如同作者一样的父母,即我需要一位鼓励我的母亲和一位鞭策我的父亲。故答案是I need a mother who can encourage me and a father who can caution me. /I need parents who both love me. /I need parents who always encourage me.。
