She told the children on the first day that she loved them all the same. But that was a lie. There in the front row was a little boy named Teddy Stoddard. He didn’t play well with the other children and he always needed a bath. She did not like him. Then Mrs. Thompson got to know that Teddy was actually a very good boy before the death of his mother. Mrs. Thompson was ashamed of herself. She felt even worse when, like all her other students, Teddy brought her a Christmas present too. It was his mother’s perfume (香水). Teddy said, “Mrs. Thompson, today you smell just like my Mom used to.” After the children left she cried for at least an hour. On that very day, she stopped teaching reading, writing and math. Instead, she began to teach children. Mrs. Thompson paid particular attention to Teddy. The boy’s mind seemed to come alive. The more she encouraged him, the faster he improved. By the end of the sixth grade, Teddy had become one of the smartest children in the class. Six years went by before she got a note from Teddy. He wrote that he had finished high school, third in his class, and she was still the best teacher he ever had in his whole life. He went to college. Mrs. Thompson got two more letters from him with the last one signed, Theodore F. Stoddard, M. D.(医学博士). The story doesn’t end there. On his wedding day, Dr. Stoddard whispered in Mrs. Thompson’s ear, “Thank you, Mrs. Thompson, for believing in me. You made me feel important and showed me that I could make a difference.” Mrs. Thompson, with tears in her eyes, whispered back, “Teddy, you have it all wrong. You were the one who taught me that I could make a difference. I didn’t know how to teach until I met you.” 4. What did Mrs. Thompson do on the first day of school? A. She made Teddy feel ashamed. B. She asked the children to play with Teddy. C. She changed Teddy’s seat to the front row. D. She told the class something untrue about herself. 5. What did Mrs. Thompson find out about Teddy? A.

She had given him encouragement. C. She had sent him Christmas presents. D. She had taught him how to judge people. 【答案】4. D 5. C 6. A 7. D 8. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了汤普森夫人对孩子态度转变的契机和她对特迪的影响。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“She told the children on the first day that she loved them all the same. But that was a lie.（第一天，她告诉孩子们，她同样爱他们。但那是个谎言。）”可知，汤普森夫人在上学的第一天她告诉全班关于她自己的一些不真实的事情。故选D。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Then Mrs. Thompson got to know that Teddy was actually a very good boy before the death of his mother.（后来，汤普森夫人才知道，特迪在他母亲死前其实是个好孩子。）”可推断，汤普森夫人发现了他需要母亲般的照顾。故选C。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“She felt even worse when, like all her other students, Teddy brought her a Christmas present too. It was his mother’s perfume (香水).（当她和其他学生一样，特迪也给她带来了一份圣诞礼物时，她感觉更糟了。那是他妈妈的香水。）”可知，圣诞节特迪给汤普森夫人送了他妈妈的香水。故选A。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“On that very day, she stopped teaching reading, writing and math. Instead, she began to teach children.（就在那一天，她停止了阅读、写作和数学的教学。相反，她开始教育孩子们。）”可知，汤普森夫人变得更关心教育学生。故选D。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“On his wedding day, Dr. Stoddard whispered in Mrs. Thompson’s ear, “Thank you, Mrs. Thompson, for believing in me.

Some people will choose paper books because they’re easy to borrow and share. Others will go for e-readers, perhaps on a phone, because they’re convenient. But which is the more environment-friendly choice? Digital reading(数字阅读)is on the rise, now making up about 15% of the total US book market. However, traditional print publishing is still by far the most popular type — and it comes with a high carbon footprint(碳足迹). According to a 2023 report from Words Rated, print book publishing is the third biggest source of greenhouse gas emissions, and 32 million trees are cut down each year in the US to make paper for books. Then there’s the problem of printing and transport, not to mention the many unsold books that are destroyed. Digital reading seems to have a great advantage over print because it is paperless, so it saves trees and transport. Moreover, technology companies that make e-readers, such as Amazon, offer recycling programs for old devices(设备). But digital devices also come with a large carbon footprint, mainly at the production stage. Their cases are made from plastic that comes from fossil fuels, and the minerals in their batteries require a lot of resources to be mined. So back to the earlier question: which way of reading is more environmentally friendly? “It’s not cut and dried,” said Mike Berners-Lee, a professor at Lancaster Environment Centre in the United Kingdom. “If you buy an e-reader and you read lots of books on it, then it’s the lowest carbon thing to do. But if you buy it, read a couple of books, and find that you prefer paper books, then it’s the worst of all worlds.” Yet, Berners-Lee said that reading is still, relatively speaking, an environmental-friendly activity. 9. What does the report show? A. Printed books have a poor sales record in the US. B. Print publishing is not friendly to the environment. C. Digital reading is more popular than paper reading. D. Printing books costs more than producing e-readers. 10. Which aspect of digital devices has the largest impact on the environment? A. Its transportation B. Its waste management. C. Its production process. D. Its recycling programs. 11. According to the text, it is better to choose digital reading if you______. A. read a lot B. hardly take notes C. enjoy reading at night D. only read books out of need 12. What is the most suitable title for the text? A. Why Should We Choose Digital Reading? B. How Does Print Publishing Affect the Environment? C. Will Traditional Print Reading Disappear in the Future? D. Which is Better for the Environment, Paper Books or E-readers? 【答案】9. B 10. C 11. A 12. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇议论文，文章对比了纸质书籍和电子阅读器在环境保护方面优劣，指出阅读方式的选择对环境的影响并非一成不变，取决于个人的阅读习惯。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“According to a 2023 report from Words Rated, print book publishing is the third biggest source of greenhouse gas emissions, and 32 million trees are cut down each year in the US to make paper for books.(根据Words Rated 2023年的报告，纸质书出版是第三大温室气体排放源，美国每年有3200万棵树被砍伐用于制作书籍纸张)”可知，该报告指出纸质书出版对环境不友好。故选B。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“：But digital devices also come with a large carbon footprint, mainly at the production stage.(但数字设备也伴随着巨大的碳足迹，主要集中在生产阶段)”可知，数字设备对环境影响最大的是其生产过程。故选C。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“If you buy an e-reader and you read lots of books on it, then it’s the lowest carbon thing to do.(如果你买了一个电子阅读器并在上面阅读很多书，那么这是最低碳的做法)”可知，如果你经常阅读，选择电子阅读器是更环保的，因此选项A“读很多书”是正确的。故选A。 【12题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，并根据文章第一段“When it comes to reading, people have different preferences. Some people will choose paper books because they’re easy to borrow and share. Others will go for e-readers, perhaps on a phone, because they’re convenient. But which is the more environment-friendly choice?(说到阅读，人们有不同的偏好。有些人会选择纸质书，因为它们很容易借阅和分享。还有一些人会选择电子阅读器，也许是在手机上，因为它们很方便。但哪个是更环保的选择？)”可知，文章围绕纸质书和电子书哪个更环保的问题展开论述，所以最适合的标题是“纸质书还是电子阅读器，哪个对环境更好”。故选D。 D Today’s world is not an easy adjustment for young adults. A key skill set for success is persistence, a characteristic that researchers say is heavily influenced by fathers. Researchers from Brigham Young University discovered that fathers are in a unique position to help their adolescent children learn persistence. BYU professors Laura Padilla-Walker and Randal Duy arrived at these findings after following 325 American families over several years. And over time, the persistence gained through fathers led to higher achievement in school. “There are relatively few studies that stress the unique role of fathers.” Padilla-Walker said. “This research also helps to prove that characteristics such as persistence which can be taught are key to a child’s life success.” Researchers determined that dads need to practice an “authoritative” parenting style. Authoritative parenting is not authoritarian; strict, demanding or controlling. Rather, an authoritative parenting style includes some of the following characteristics: children feel warmth and love from their father; responsibility and the reasons behind rules are stressed; children are given a proper level of autonomy. In the study, about 52 percent of the dads showed above-average levels of authoritative parenting. A key finding is that over time, children raised by an authoritative father were more likely to develop persistence, which leads to better results in school. This particular study examined 11-to 14-year-olds living in two-parent homes. Yet the researchers suggest that single parents still may play a role in teaching the benefits of persistence, which is an avenue of future research. 13. What is special about the BYU professors' study? A. It focused on father’s role in parenting. B. It was based on a number of large families. C. It aimed to improve kids’ achievement in school. D. It analyzed different kinds of parenting styles. 14. What would an authoritative father do when raising his children? A. Ignore their demands. B. Make decisions for them. C. Control their behaviors. D. Explain the rules to them. 15. Which group can be a focus of future studies according to the researchers? A. Single parents. B. Authoritarian fathers. C. Children aged from 11 to 14. D. Mothers in two-parent homes. 16. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. Three Characteristics of Authoritative Fathers B. Key Skills for Young Adults to Succeed in Future C. Children Tend to Learn Determination from Fathers D. Family Relationship Influences School Performance 【答案】13. A 14. D 15. A 16. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。研究人员发现，父亲在帮助青春期的孩子学习毅力方面具有独特的地位。研究人员认为，父亲们需要采用一种“权威”的养育方式，且一项重要的发现是，随着时间的推移，由权威父亲抚养长大的孩子更有可能培养出坚持不懈的精神，从而在学校取得更好的成绩。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Researchers from Brigham Young University discovered that fathers are in a unique position to help their adolescent children learn persistence. (杨百翰大学的研究人员发现，父亲在帮助青春期的孩子学习毅力方面具有独特的地位)”可知杨百翰大学研究的特别之处在于，它关注的是父亲在养育子女中的角色。故选A。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“Rather, an authoritative parenting style includes some of the following characteristics: children feel warmth and love from their father; responsibility and the reasons behind rules are stressed; children are given a proper level of autonomy.(相反，权威的养育方式包括以下一些特征：孩子们感受到来自父亲的温暖和爱；强调责任和规则背后的原因；孩子们被给予适当的自主权)”可知一个有权威的父亲在抚养孩子时会向他们解释规则。故选D。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Yet the researchers suggest that single parents still may play a role in teaching the benefits of persistence, which is an avenue of future research. (然而，研究人员认为，单亲父母仍然可能在教授坚持不懈的好处方面发挥作用，这是未来研究的一个方向)”可知根据研究人员的说法，单亲父母是未来研究的重点。故选A。 【16题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章倒数第二段中“A key finding is that over time, children raised by an authoritative father were more likely to develop persistence, which leads to better results in school.(一项重要的发现是，随着时间的推移，由权威父亲抚养长大的孩子更有可能培养出坚持不懈的精神，从而在学校取得更好的成绩)”和文章主要内容为说明父亲在养育子女中的角色，故选C选项“孩子们倾向于向父亲学习决心”最符合文章标题。故选C。 第二节（共5小题, 每小题2.5分, 满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文。根据短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项, 选项中有两项为多余选项。 （注意: 如果你的答题卡上没有E、F、G选项, 则: E=AB; F=AC; G=AD） How can positive psychology help in trying times? “Positive psychology is not about denying difficult emotions.

She told the children on the first day that she loved them all the same. But that was a lie. There in the front row was a little boy named Teddy Stoddard. He didn’t play well with the other children and he always needed a bath. She did not like him. Then Mrs. Thompson got to know that Teddy was actually a very good boy before the death of his mother. Mrs. Thompson was ashamed of herself. She felt even worse when, like all her other students, Teddy brought her a Christmas present too. It was his mother’s perfume (香水). Teddy said, “Mrs. Thompson, today you smell just like my Mom used to.” After the children left she cried for at least an hour. On that very day, she stopped teaching reading, writing and math. Instead, she began to teach children. Mrs. Thompson paid particular attention to Teddy. The boy’s mind seemed to come alive. The more she encouraged him, the faster he improved. By the end of the sixth grade, Teddy had become one of the smartest children in the class. Six years went by before she got a note from Teddy. He wrote that he had finished high school, third in his class, and she was still the best teacher he ever had in his whole life. He went to college. Mrs. Thompson got two more letters from him with the last one signed, Theodore F. Stoddard, M. D.(医学博士). The story doesn’t end there. On his wedding day, Dr. Stoddard whispered in Mrs. Thompson’s ear, “Thank you, Mrs. Thompson, for believing in me. You made me feel important and showed me that I could make a difference.” Mrs. Thompson, with tears in her eyes, whispered back, “Teddy, you have it all wrong. You were the one who taught me that I could make a difference. I didn’t know how to teach until I met you.” 4. What did Mrs. Thompson do on the first day of school? A. She made Teddy feel ashamed. B. She asked the children to play with Teddy. C. She changed Teddy’s seat to the front row. D. She told the class something untrue about herself. 5. What did Mrs. Thompson find out about Teddy? A. He often told lies. B. He was good at math. C. He needed motherly care. D. He enjoyed playing with others. 6. What gift did Teddy give to Mrs. Thompson at Christmas? A. His mother’s perfume. B. A bag. C. Some flowers. D. Some books. 7. In what way did Mrs. Thompson change? A. She taught fewer school subjects. B She became stricter with her students. C. She no longer liked her job as a teacher. D. She cared more about educating students. 8. Why did Teddy thank Mrs. Thompson at his wedding? A. She had kept in touch with him. B. She had given him encouragement. C. She had sent him Christmas presents. D. She had taught him how to judge people. C When it comes to reading, people have different preferences. Some people will choose paper books because they’re easy to borrow and share. Others will go for e-readers, perhaps on a phone, because they’re convenient. But which is the more environment-friendly choice? Digital reading(数字阅读)is on the rise, now making up about 15% of the total US book market. However, traditional print publishing is still by far the most popular type — and it comes with a high carbon footprint(碳足迹). According to a 2023 report from Words Rated, print book publishing is the third biggest source of greenhouse gas emissions, and 32 million trees are cut down each year in the US to make paper for books. Then there’s the problem of printing and transport, not to mention the many unsold books that are destroyed. Digital reading seems to have a great advantage over print because it is paperless, so it saves trees and transport. Moreover, technology companies that make e-readers, such as Amazon, offer recycling programs for old devices(设备). But digital devices also come with a large carbon footprint, mainly at the production stage. Their cases are made from plastic that comes from fossil fuels, and the minerals in their batteries require a lot of resources to be mined. So back to the earlier question: which way of reading is more environmentally friendly? “It’s not cut and dried,” said Mike Berners-Lee, a professor at Lancaster Environment Centre in the United Kingdom. “If you buy an e-reader and you read lots of books on it, then it’s the lowest carbon thing to do. But if you buy it, read a couple of books, and find that you prefer paper books, then it’s the worst of all worlds.” Yet, Berners-Lee said that reading is still, relatively speaking, an environmental-friendly activity. 9. What does the report show? A. Printed books have a poor sales record in the US. B. Print publishing is not friendly to the environment. C. Digital reading is more popular than paper reading. D. Printing books costs more than producing e-readers. 10. Which aspect of digital devices has the largest impact on the environment? A. Its transportation B. Its waste management. C. Its production process. D. Its recycling programs. 11. According to the text, it is better to choose digital reading if you______. A. read a lot B. hardly take notes C. enjoy reading at night D. only read books out of need 12. What is the most suitable title for the text? A. Why Should We Choose Digital Reading? B. How Does Print Publishing Affect the Environment? C. Will Traditional Print Reading Disappear in the Future? D. Which is Better for the Environment, Paper Books or E-readers? D Today’s world is not an easy adjustment for young adults. A key skill set for success is persistence, a characteristic that researchers say is heavily influenced by fathers. Researchers from Brigham Young University discovered that fathers are in a unique position to help their adolescent children learn persistence. BYU professors Laura Padilla-Walker and Randal Duy arrived at these findings after following 325 American families over several years. And over time, the persistence gained through fathers led to higher achievement in school. “There are relatively few studies that stress the unique role of fathers.” Padilla-Walker said. “This research also helps to prove that characteristics such as persistence which can be taught are key to a child’s life success.” Researchers determined that dads need to practice an “authoritative” parenting style. Authoritative parenting is not authoritarian; strict, demanding or controlling. Rather, an authoritative parenting style includes some of the following characteristics: children feel warmth and love from their father; responsibility and the reasons behind rules are stressed; children are given a proper level of autonomy. In the study, about 52 percent of the dads showed above-average levels of authoritative parenting. A key finding is that over time, children raised by an authoritative father were more likely to develop persistence, which leads to better results in school. This particular study examined 11-to 14-year-olds living in two-parent homes. Yet the researchers suggest that single parents still may play a role in teaching the benefits of persistence, which is an avenue of future research. 13. What is special about the BYU professors' study? A. It focused on father’s role in parenting. B. It was based on a number of large families. C. It aimed to improve kids’ achievement in school. D. It analyzed different kinds of parenting styles. 14. What would an authoritative father do when raising his children? A Ignore their demands. B. Make decisions for them. C. Control their behaviors. D. Explain the rules to them. 15. Which group can be a focus of future studies according to the researchers? A. Single parents. B. Authoritarian fathers. C. Children aged from 11 to 14. D. Mothers in two-parent homes. 16. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. Three Characteristics of Authoritative Fathers B. Key Skills for Young Adults to Succeed in Future C. Children Tend to Learn Determination from Fathers D.
