解题步骤
1:答题前应先速读全文,理解文章主旨和文章框架。切忌边看文章边作答。
2:作答时应先细读每个选项,注意填的选项与上下文语义是否衔接、逻辑是否连贯。
3:每选择一个选项,都要确保其他选项均不能填入该空格处。
4:作答完成后,还应再次通读全文,检查填的选项是否正确。
解题方法: 根据逻辑线索解题
语篇是连贯的,换言之,语篇之所以不是一堆散乱的语言片段,是因为组成语篇的各部分(段落、句子、短语等)之间具有一定的逻辑语义关系。语篇中的各种逻辑关系通过一些标志词体现,牢牢抓住这些逻辑关系词,问题往往可迎刃而解。
逻辑关系的标志词
转折让步关系:but、yet、however、although、instead、though、while、whereas despite等。
并列递进关系:and、or、also、besides、even 、similarly、in the same way、meanwhile、furthermore、moreover等。
因果关系:therefore、thus、as a result、 for this reason 、of course等。
解析、举例关系:for example、for instance、that is to say、in other words、that means等。
巧用代词线索
代词用于指代上文提及的人、事物或整句话。但凡空格前后、选项中出现代词时,应查找到具体代指的内容,代人选项后检查前后语义是否连贯、合乎逻辑。巧用代词线索,不仅有助提高解题速度,而且有助提高答题的准确率。

考点一
空格在段首
)
当空格设在段首时,最可能存在以下两种情形:一是空格处可能是段落主题句。此时,考生应仔细阅读段落内容,选择与段落大意一致的选项。二是空格处可能是过渡句,起承上启下的作用。这种情况下,考生需要瞻前顾后,即阅读上一段结尾部分及空格后面内容,寻找能将前后内容衔接起来的过渡句。
________ It must be true that sooner or later, everyone finds his or her way back to nature. I recommend that you find your way in style.
A. This time there was no tent.
B. Things are going to be improved.
C. The trip they took me on was a rough one.
D. I was to learn a lot about camping since then, however.
E. I must say that I have certainly come to enjoy camping.
F. After the trip, my family became quite interested in camping.
G. There was no shade as the trees were no more than 3 feet tall.

空格在段中
)【解析】E。本文是一篇记叙文,文章讲述了作者由不喜欢野营到喜欢野营的过程。本空位于文章最后一段,根据整篇文章的行文思路来看,最后一段是在总结、升华文章的中心思想,故结合本空格的后一句“每一个人迟早都会找到回归自然的方式”可判断出选E。
段中设空可为段落主题句或展开句。解题时要注意分析空前后的逻辑关系。设空处可能是以转折手法引出的主题句,或者是用来承上启下的过渡句,也可能是补充前文的具体的事实、事例和说明。因此第一步需要依据信息词将部分选项排除之后,把剩下的几个可能正确的选项依次代人设空处,最终确定哪个选项和空白处前后内容能达到语意连贯,逻辑关系清晰,从而得出正确答案。
When people try to interrupt you, have set hours planned and let them know tocome back during that time or that you'll find them then. ________. It can help to eliminate(消除) future interruptions.
A. If you're busy, don't feel bad about saying no
B. When you want to avoid interruptions at work
C. Set boundaries for yourself as far as your time goes
D. If you're in the other person's office or in a public area
E. It's important that you let them know when you'll be available
F. It might seem unkind to cut people short when they interrupt you
G. Leave it open when you're available to talk and close it when you're not

空格在段尾
)【解析】E。空前一句说“当有人试图打扰你时,提出新的沟通时间,让他们在预约时间过来或者你去找他们”,空格后说“这样做能帮助你消除未来受到打扰的可能”,E项“让他们知道你什么时候有空是很重要的”可起承上启下的作用,故选E。
段尾句多为承上启下句或概括总结句。解题时可从这个角度去思考:这一空是归纳本段主旨还是引出下一段的内容?如果在选项中找不出与前文的关联,此时可考虑与下一段开头是否体现出了衔接。认真阅读下一段的开头几句,看是否能与选项紧密连接起来。当空格设在段尾时,空格处通常是为概括性的结论,这时应注意查找包含结论、总结的选项,如therefore、as a result、so等表达。
Keep your sleep/wake schedule on weekends. If you're tired out by Friday night, sleeping in on Saturday could sound wonderful. But compensating on the weekends actually feeds into your sleepiness the following week, a recent study found. ________
Keep a record and evaluate it weekly. Keep track of your efforts and write down how you feel. After you've tried a new method for a week, take a look at your record ...
A. Get a sleep specialist.
B. Find the right motivation.
C. A better plan for sleep can help.
D. And consider setting a second alarm.
E. If the steps you take are working, keep it up.
F. Stick to your set bedtime and wake-up time, no matter the day.
G. Reconsider the 15 minutes you spend in line at the cafe to get coffee.
【解析】F。由本段首句可知本段是在讲述“在周末要坚持执行你的睡觉和起床时间表”。本空位于段尾且与后段无明显衔接,故其应是起总结归纳本段主旨的作用而不是引出下一段的内容。F选项的句意“坚持你所设定的就寝和起床时间,不管是哪天”和本段主旨相符。故选F。
Passage 1
(2025年高二下·河北保定·开学考试)It is no secret that social media is harmful to everyone for many reasons: from general internet safety, to causing insecurities or becoming a major distraction. 1 Social media can have a large impact on people’s perspectives, opinions and the way they view the world — especially teenagers.
In recent years, social media creators have done a really effective job of creating algorithms (算法) that can keep track of what you engage with, and provide more content based on your preferences and interests. 2 Exposure to only one perspective in the long run can lead to what are called echo chambers, or situations in which one’s beliefs are constantly supported by the people around them, rather than hearing other opinions.
3 By only being exposed to people who agree with you, you are prevented from considering other perspectives, which perpetuates (使持续) close-minded attitudes. Since social media users are used to seeing content they agree with, the first opinion that they see on a new issue is the one they are most likely to agree with, despite not hearing opposing thoughts. 4
Recently, the term “chronically online takes” has resurfaced on social media. This concept refers to opinions that only seem to exist online, and lack the support of real world experience.
5 In fact, chronically online takes are problematic themselves, successfully weakening actual issues that should be called out.
A.This fails to show respect for your privacy.
B.This ensures that you continue using social media.
C.Usually, it takes the form of calling things problematic.
D.However, the negatives of social media go even deeper than that.
E.The key issue is that people are content with being told what to think.
F.The problem with echo chambers is that they discourage critical thinking.
G.Echo chambers increase social media users’ impatience and kills their creativity.
【答案】1.D 2.B 3.F 4.E 5.C
【导语】本文是说明文。讲述了社交媒体妨碍批判性思维。
1.根据前文“It is no secret that social media is harmful to everyone for many reasons: from general internet safety, to causing insecurities or becoming a major distraction.(众所周知,社交媒体对每个人都有害,原因有很多:从一般的互联网安全,到造成不安全感或成为主要的分心因素)”以及后文“Social media can have a large impact on people’s perspectives, opinions and the way they view the world — especially teenagers.(社交媒体对人们的观点、看法以及他们看待世界的方式有着巨大影响,尤其是对青少年而言)”可知,前文讲述社交媒体的坏处,后面进一步讲述坏处,所以D项“However, the negatives of social media go even deeper than that.(然而,社交媒体的负面影响远不止于此)”和前文构成转折关系,并引出后文,符合文意。故选D项。
2.根据前文“In recent years, social media creators have done a really effective job of creating algorithms (算法) that can keep track of what you engage with, and provide more content based on your preferences and interests.(近年来,社交媒体创建者在创建算法方面做了非常有效的工作,这些算法可以跟踪你参与的内容,并根据你的偏好和兴趣提供更多内容)”可知,B项“This ensures that you continue using social media.(这可以确保你继续使用社交媒体)”是讲述前文内容的结果,符合文意。故选B项。
3.设空位于段首,为本段中心句,根据后文“By only being exposed to people who agree with you, you are prevented from considering other perspectives, which perpetuates (使持续) close-minded attitudes.(只接触与你意见一致的人,你就无法考虑其他观点,从而使思想封闭的态度永久化)”以及上文内容“Exposure to only one perspective in the long run can lead to what are called echo chambers, or situations in which one’s beliefs are constantly supported by the people around them, rather than hearing other opinions.(长期只接触一种观点会导致所谓的回音室,或者一个人的信仰不断得到周围人的支持,而不是听到其他观点的情况)”可知,F项“The problem with echo chambers is that they discourage critical thinking.(回音室的问题在于它阻碍了批判性思维)”承接上文,后文是对本句的解释,符合文意。故选F项。
4.设空位于段尾,是对前文的总结,根据前文“Since social media users are used to seeing content they agree with, the first opinion that they see on a new issue is the one they are most likely to agree with, despite not hearing opposing thoughts.(由于社交媒体用户习惯于看到他们同意的内容,他们在新问题上看到的第一个观点就是他们最有可能同意的观点,尽管他们没有听到相反的观点)”可知,E项“The key issue is that people are content with being told what to think.(关键问题是,人们满足于被告知该怎么想)”是对前文的总结,讲述人们没有听到相反的观点,但是很满足。故选E项。
5.设空位于段首,为本段中心句,根据后文“In fact, chronically online takes are problematic themselves, successfully weakening actual issues that should be called out.(事实上,那些经常上网发表的观点本身就有问题,它们成功地弱化了那些本应被指出的实际问题)”可知,C项“Usually, it takes the form of calling things problematic.(通常,这种做法表现为将事物称为“有问题”)”符合本段主题,讲述网上发表的观点有问题。故选C项。
Passage 2
(2025年高二下·江苏南京·开学考试)Success often comes to those who dare to dream and strive for their goals. However, achieving success is not just about hard work and determination; it also involves learning from mistakes and setbacks along the way. The adage “failure is the stepping stone to success” holds true in many cases.
The reality is that failure can indeed be a powerful teacher. 6 Because we naturally dislike failing, learning from our failures becomes emotionally challenging. It’s uncomfortable and can lead us to react defensively, such as by avoiding difficult tasks, convincing ourselves that we don’t care about succeeding, or criticizing the task itself. According to Dr. Jane Miller, a cognitive psychologist, these reactions are protective mechanisms. In her view, most individuals prefer to see themselves as competent and capable.
Fortunately, there are strategies to help us overcome these emotional barriers. 7 Instead of asking, “Why did I fail?” we might ask, “Why did Alex fail?” This technique helps reduce negative emotional responses and allows us to analyze the situation more objectively.
Another effective strategy is to share your experiences with others. 8 By offering advice based on personal failures, individuals can gain deeper insights into their own experiences. Research conducted by Professor Mark Thompson found that this practice enhances motivation and leads to greater academic and professional achievements among both adults and children.
Moreover, reflecting on past failures can inspire new approaches and ideas. 9 As the renowned inventor Thomas Edison once said, “I have not failed. I’ve just found 10,000 ways that won’t work.” His perspective encourages us to view each setback as an opportunity for growth rather than a defeat.
10 By mastering the skills to navigate through these challenges, we can turn our failures into valuable lessons that pave the way to future success.
A.Everyone needs success
B.Hard work leads to success
C.Failure can be a teachable moment
D.Failure is an unavoidable part of life
E.One of them is to adopt a third-person view
F.Next, offer advice to others in the same position as us
G.So what failure causes is a serious threat to our self-image
【答案】6.G 7.E 8.F 9.C 10.D
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讨论了失败在成功过程中的作用,以及如何通过不同的策略从失败中学习并克服由此产生的情感障碍。
6.根据下文内容“Because we naturally dislike failing, learning from our failures becomes emotionally challenging. It’s uncomfortable and can lead us to react defensively, such as by avoiding difficult tasks, convincing ourselves that we don’t care about succeeding, or criticizing the task itself. (因为我们本能地厌恶失败,所以从失败中学习在情感上颇具挑战性。这会让我们感到不舒服,并可能导致我们做出防御性反应,例如避免困难的任务,说服自己不在乎成功,或者批评任务本身。)”可知,下文指出我们不愿意从失败中学习,失败还会让人变得不积极,选项G“So what failure causes is a serious threat to our self-image (所以失败对我们的自我形象是一个严重威胁)”指出失败对人的不利之处。故选G。
7.根据下文“Instead of asking, “Why did I fail?” we might ask, “Why did Alex fail?” This technique helps reduce negative emotional responses and allows us to analyze the situation more objectively.(我们可以问“为什么亚历克斯失败了?”,而不是问 “为什么我失败了?”。这种方法有助于减少负面情绪反应,让我们更客观地分析情况。)”可知,下文建议我们从问自己失败原因转变为问他人失败原因的方式,就是采用第三人称视角。选项E“One of them is to adopt a third-person view(其中一个方法是采用第三人称视角)”与下文内容相符。故选E。
8.根据空前内容“Another effective strategy is to share your experiences with others.(另一个有效的策略是与他人分享你的经历。)”可知,作者建议我们可以与他人分享自己的经历。选项F“Next, offer advice to others in the same position as us(接下来,给和我们处于相同处境的人提供建议)”进一步阐述了与他人分享经验后,给相同处境的人提建议这一做法,符合语境。故选F。
9.根据下文“As the renowned inventor Thomas Edison once said, “I have not failed. I’ve just found 10,000 ways that won’t work.” His perspective encourages us to view each setback as an opportunity for growth rather than a defeat.(正如著名发明家Thomas Edison曾经说过的:“我并没有失败。我只是发现了一万种行不通的方法。”他的观点鼓励我们将每一次挫折都视为成长的机会,而非失败。)”可知,下文指出我们应该将失败视作成长的机会。选项C“Failure can be a teachable moment(失败可以是一个可教时刻)”指出,失败可以是一个我们从中学习的时刻。与下文内容相符。故选C。
10.根据下文“By mastering the skills to navigate through these challenges, we can turn our failures into valuable lessons that pave the way to future success.(通过掌握应对这些挑战的技能,我们可以将失败转化为宝贵的经验教训,为未来的成功铺平道路。)”可知失败是不可避免的,所以可以将失败变成宝贵的经验教训,为未来的成功铺平道路,D“Failure is an unavoidable part of life(失败是生活中不可避免的一部分。)”引出失败的不可避免性,并与下文形成逻辑上的因果关系。故选D。
Passage 3
(2025年高二下·浙江温州·开学考试)At some point, everyone has faced unkind remarks or actions. Whether it’s teasing from classmates or harsh words from peers, dealing with such situations can be challenging. 11 Here are some tips to help you respond effectively and build your confidence.
Practice comebacks. Quick, confident replies - known as comebacks - can stop bullies in their tracks. Instead of waiting for the perfect moment, try practicing. Ask a friend or a sympathetic adult to role-play with you. If you don’t feel comfortable with this, you can try it on your own in the mirror. Notice which style of comeback feels most natural to you. For example, if humor doesn’t feel natural, a calm response like “Are you finished?” may be more effective. 12
Learn a little about your bully. Bullies are usually very socially intelligent and great people-readers. They can easily see which comments get under people’s skin. You can benefit from building up this same skill, but using it for defense instead of for aggression (like the bully). Watch the bully’s reaction when you deliver your comeback and the reaction of others around him. Did he respond with surprise or walk away? 13 Watch for patterns and make note of what worked and what didn’t.
14 Sometimes comebacks can lead to more insults and even violence. Keep an eye out for signs that the person is becoming aggressive. The person may touch his head or face and clench (握紧) his fists. The person may remove an article of clothing, and may crouch down slightly. In addition, the person may turn his non-dominant side toward you; so, a left-handed person may turn his right side toward you. If you notice any of these behaviors, do not try to make a comeback and back away from the person.
Get help. If someone is bullying you regularly, get help from a teacher or a parent. 15 If you can’t solve the problem informally, get someone in a position of authority involved. You shouldn’t have to deal with constant insults from a bully in any situation.
A.Come up with safety ideas.
B.Watch for physical signals of violence.
C.Then the comeback style used was successful.
D.Bullies are less likely to pick on you if you aren’t alone.
E.You can also get in a lot of trouble for using these kinds of insults.
F.While ignoring them sometimes works, a more active approach is often needed.
G.Use what works best for you until you can practice and use the other methods effectively.
【答案】11.F 12.G 13.C 14.B 15.D
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了面对他人不友善言行时,如何有效回应和增强自信的一些建议。
11.上文“At some point, everyone has faced unkind remarks or actions. Whether it’s teasing from classmates or harsh words from peers, dealing with such situations can be challenging. (在某个时刻,每个人都曾面对过不友善的言论或行为。无论是来自同学的嘲笑还是同龄人的严厉言辞,应对这类情况都可能颇具挑战性。)”指出人们会遇到不友善情况且应对有挑战,F选项“While ignoring them sometimes works, a more active approach is often needed. (虽然有时忽视它们会起作用,但通常需要更积极的方法。)”既提到了常见的忽视方法,又引出后文要介绍积极应对的建议,与上下文逻辑连贯。故选F项。
12.上文“Notice which style of comeback feels most natural to you. For example, if humor doesn’t feel natural, a calm response like ‘Are you finished?’ may be more effective. (注意哪种回应方式对你来说最自然。例如,如果幽默对你来说不自然,像‘你说完了吗?’这样冷静的回应可能更有效。)”强调要找到适合自己的回应方式,G选项“Use what works best for you until you can practice and use the other methods effectively. (使用最适合你的方法,直到你能有效练习并使用其他方法。)”承接上文,进一步说明先使用适合自己的方式,符合逻辑。故选G项。
13.上文“Watch the bully’s reaction when you deliver your comeback and the reaction of others around him. Did he respond with surprise or walk away? (当你做出回应时,观察欺负者的反应以及他周围其他人的反应。他是惊讶地回应还是走开了?)”提出要观察欺负者的反应,C选项“Then the comeback style used was successful. (那么所使用的回应方式就是成功的。)”根据上文提到的欺负者的反应,得出回应方式成功的结论,逻辑合理。故选C项。
14.下文“Sometimes comebacks can lead to more insults and even violence. Keep an eye out for signs that the person is becoming aggressive. (有时回应可能会导致更多的侮辱甚至暴力。留意那个人变得有攻击性的迹象。)”主要围绕留意暴力的身体信号展开,B选项“Watch for physical signals of violence. (留意暴力的身体信号。)”与下文内容一致,起到了总领段落的作用。故选B项。
15.上文“If someone is bullying you regularly, get help from a teacher or a parent .(如果有人经常欺负你,向老师或家长寻求帮助。)”建议向他人寻求帮助,D选项“Bullies are less likely to pick on you if you aren’t alone. (如果你不是独自一人,欺负者就不太可能找你麻烦。)”说明寻求帮助后有人陪伴,欺负者就不敢轻易欺负你,与上文寻求帮助的内容相呼应。故选D项。
Passage 4
(2025年高二下·安徽·开学考试)These days, it’s not unusual to see adult taking an interest in toys, comic books and the activities that are traditionally associated with children. This phenomenon has given rise to a new word: kidult.
16 One is about adults’ nostalgia (怀旧之情) for the carefree days of childhood, and this is especially true with today’s fast-paced, stressful lifestyles. Another is about a societal change in recent decades where people are starting families later. 17 Some adults could only window-shop for their dream toys when they were kids, but now they can afford that radio controlled car or high-priced doll they have always wanted.
Businesses have been quick to exploit (利用) the kidult trend, and the number of toy stores that target adults has risen. Companies are repackaging products from past decades and also bringing out new ones for adults. 18
Society traditionally disapproves of adults who refuse to put aside childhood interests, 19 Those who agree with this view sometimes claim that kidults are suffering from the pop-psychology concept known as Peter Pan Syndrome, an anomaly (异常) that people remain emotionally at the level of teenagers.
From the standpoint of kidults, though, this phenomenon is seen as nothing but harmless fun. Kidults insist that having youthful interests keeps them young, happy and creative. 20 The real causes include expensive housing, increased educational requirements for employment and poor work opportunities.
Whether the kidult phenomenon will continue to grow or prove to be a passing trend is anyone’s guess. As the debate about it continues, remember that there is nothing wrong with being young at heart.
A.What lies behind the phenomenon?
B.There are two types of this social trend.
C.viewing the refusal as social immaturity and irresponsibility.
D.As a result, they have more time and money to spend on themselves.
E.and their refusal to follow society’s acceptable tastes shows independent thinking.
F.Besides, they argue that being part of this social trend is not purely a personal choice.
G.Lego, for example, has brought out an architectural series featuring worldwide landmarks.
【答案】16.A 17.D 18.G 19.C 20.F
【导语】本文是说明文。文章介绍了一种社会趋势:kidult即成人喜欢儿童相关的玩具和活动等,本文介绍了其成因、商业发展趋势、不同社会评价和作者简要个人观点。
16.根据第一段“These days, it’s not unusual to see adult taking an interest in toys, comic books and the activities that are traditionally associated with children. This phenomenon has given rise to a new word: kidult.( 如今,成年人对玩具、漫画书和传统上与儿童有关的活动感兴趣并不罕见。这种现象产生了一个新词:kidult。)”和下文“One is about adults’ nostalgia (怀旧之情) for the carefree days of childhood, and this is especially true with today’s fast-paced, stressful lifestyles. Another is about a societal change in recent decades where people are starting families later.( 一个是关于成年人对无忧无虑的童年的怀念,尤其是在今天快节奏、紧张的生活方式下。另一个是关于近几十年来的社会变化,人们开始晚婚。)”可知,本段分析了kidult这种现象的两种可能的原因:一是成年人的怀旧之情,二是成家时间较晚。A项“这一现象背后的原因是什么?”符合语境。故选A。
17.根据前文“Another is about a societal change in recent decades where people are starting families later.( 另一个是关于近几十年来的社会变化,人们开始晚婚。)”和下文“Some adults could only window-shop for their dream toys when they were kids, but now they can afford that radio controlled car or high-priced doll they have always wanted.(有些成年人小时候只能在橱窗里买他们梦寐以求的玩具,但现在他们可以买得起他们一直想要的遥控汽车或高价娃娃。)”可推断本句与前一句成家较晚是因后果关系,因为成家晚,所以他们有更多时间金钱花在自己身上。与后一句过去买不起的现在能负担得起形成解释说明关系,同时money与afford词义呼应。因此推断D项“因此,他们有更多的时间和金钱花在自己身上。”。故选D。
18.本句对前一句“Companies are repackaging products from past decades and also bringing out new ones for adults.(公司正在重新包装过去几十年的产品,并为成年人推出新的产品)”公司重新包装过去的玩具并同时开发给成年人的新玩具解释说明。G选项“例如,乐高推出了一个以世界各地地标为主题的建筑系列。”用举例的方式,对前文进行具体的支撑解释,乐高全世界地标系列就是前句“new ones for adults”的具体实例。故选G。
19.本题为半句,根据前文“Society traditionally disapproves of adults who refuse to put aside childhood interests(传统上,社会不赞成成年人不把童年的兴趣放在一边)”可知,社会传统上不支持那些拒绝放弃儿时兴趣的成年人,可知该句应该填入反对观点,故选项C“认为这种拒绝是社会的不成熟和不负责任。”符合语境。故选C。
20.根据前文“From the standpoint of kidults, though, this phenomenon is seen as nothing but harmless fun. Kidults insist that having youthful interests keeps them young, happy and creative.(然而,从kidults的角度来看,这种现象只不过是无害的娱乐。kidults坚持认为,拥有年轻的兴趣爱好能让他们保持年轻、快乐和创造性。)”和下文“The real causes include expensive housing, increased educational requirements for employment and poor work opportunities.(真正的原因包括昂贵的住房、更高的就业教育要求和糟糕的工作机会。)”可推断,本段从kidults视角,认为这一现象没什么大不了,不过是一种无害的乐趣罢了。因此推断F项“此外,他们认为成为这一社会趋势的一部分并不纯粹是个人的选择。”符合语境,与前句形成并列关系,先后从个体和群体两个维度进行阐述,说明这一趋势不仅是个人选择,也与后文进一步补充分析的社会压力大、生活成本高、负担重等有关。故选F。
Passage 5
(23-24高二下·福建泉州·期中)To get the most out of literary works, one must approach them with intention and skill. Here are five key strategies to enhance your reading experience.
Engage with the text. Engagement is crucial when reading literature. 21 . Ask questions as you read: Why did the character do that? What does this scene symbolize? What might the author be trying to say? This active engagement helps you to think critically and to immerse (沉浸在) yourself in the literary world.
Understand the historical and cultural context. 22 . It reflects the culture in which it was written. By researching the historical period, the author’s life, and the social norms (规范) of the time, you can gain a deeper understanding of the text.
23 . Literature is an art form that uses language in creative and often complex ways. Pay attention to the author’s use of literary devices such as imagery, symbolism, metaphor, and irony. Knowing these techniques can reveal hidden layers of meaning and give you a greater appreciation of the author’s craft.
Reflect on themes and personal relevance. Great literature often deals with themes that are universal and timeless. Reflect on the themes you encounter in the text and consider how they relate to your own experiences and beliefs. 24 . Besides, it can offer insights into both the literature and your own life.
Discuss and share insights. Literature is meant to be shared and discussed. Conversations with others can enhance your understanding and enjoyment of a text. Join a book club, participate in online forums, or simply discuss the book with friends or classmates. These discussions can provide you with new perspectives (观点). 25
A.Think of words in the book
B.Analyze literary techniques
C.Every piece of literature is a product of its time
D.They can lessen your appreciation of the literature
E.Interacting with others will lead you about the book
F.This personal connection can make reading more meaningful
G.This means actively interacting with the text, not just reading the words
【答案】21.G 22.C 23.B 24.F 25.E
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了五个提高阅读体验的关键策略。
21.根据前文“Engage with the text. Engagement is crucial when reading literature. (与文本互动。在阅读文学作品时,投入是至关重要的)”可知,本段的主题是讲述与文本互动,所以G项“This means actively interacting with the text, not just reading the words (这意味着积极地与文本互动,而不仅仅是阅读单词)”是对前句的进一步解释,而后文“Ask questions as you read: Why did the character do that? What does this scene symbolize? What might the author be trying to say? This active engagement helps you to think critically and to immerse (沉浸在) yourself in the literary world. (当你阅读的时候问一些问题:为什么这个角色要那样做?这个场景象征着什么?作者可能想说什么?这种积极的参与可以帮助你批判性地思考,让自己沉浸在文学世界中)”是讲述互动的具体方法。故选G项。
22.根据前文“Understand the historical and cultural context. (了解历史和文化背景)”以及后文“It reflects the culture in which it was written. By researching the historical period, the author’s life, and the social norms (规范) of the time, you can gain a deeper understanding of the text. (它反映了它被创作时的文化。通过对历史时期、作者生平、当时社会规范的研究,可以对文本有更深的了解)”可知,本段讲述通过了解文章背后的历史和文化背景,来增加对文章的了解,所以C项“Every piece of literature is a product of its time (每一部文学作品都是它所处时代的产物)”是对前文的进一步解释,并引出下文,符合文意。故选C项。
23.设空处位于段首,为本段中心句,根据后文“Literature is an art form that uses language in creative and often complex ways. Pay attention to the author’s use of literary devices such as imagery, symbolism, metaphor, and irony. Knowing these techniques can reveal hidden layers of meaning and give you a greater appreciation of the author’s craft. (文学是一种艺术形式,它以创造性和复杂的方式使用语言。注意作者对意象、象征、隐喻和反讽等文学手法的运用。了解这些技巧可以揭示隐藏的含义层次,让你更好地欣赏作者的技巧)”可知,本段主要讲述了解文学技巧来分析文章,所以B项“Analyze literary techniques (分析文学技巧)”符合本段主题,为本段中心句。故选B项。
24.根据前文“Reflect on themes and personal relevance. Great literature often deals with themes that are universal and timeless. Reflect on the themes you encounter in the text and consider how they relate to your own experiences and beliefs. (反思主题和个人相关性。伟大的文学作品往往涉及普遍和永恒的主题。反思你在文章中遇到的主题,并考虑它们与你自己的经历和信仰的关系)”可知,本段主要讲述,通过联系文章主题和个人经历来理解文章,所以F项“This personal connection can make reading more meaningful (这种个人联系可以使阅读更有意义)”介绍前文提到的方法的好处,符合文意。故选F项。

Passage 6
(2025年高二上·江西宜春·阶段练习)Some children love reading, some dislike it, and many are in between. Most children and adults are drawn to reading materials that are engaging and understandable. 26 So building reading abilities is always a good idea. As a parent, you can help your child develop reading skills with enjoyable activities, some of which you might not have thought of as reading enrichment. Here are some easy reading strategies for parents to use at home.
27 When your child creates a story out loud or in written form, you can prompt more specific vocabulary and encourage your child to dive into descriptive details. This activity provides practice for thinking through logical sequences (顺序) and may motivate curiosity as a child looks for books in similar settings.
Compare books to films. 28 If yes, talk about the similarities and differences between the two mediums. What did you each like or dislike about each form? Did your child prefer the book or the movie, and why?
Encourage curiosity about vocabulary. As your child reads books, suggest that you look up difficult or unfamiliar words in the dictionary together. 29 This builds the skill of inference (推理), which is thinking through the possible answers based on the context.
Strengthen spelling skills. If you are making flashcards with difficult words, have your child practice spelling the words out loud or on paper. Give your child the opportunity to double-check spelling and find mistakes independently. This is a great strategy to use throughout the year. 30
A.Create literature with your child.
B.Help your child to make up better stories.
C.Compare how they are similar and how they are different.
D.But your child will eventually have to read uninteresting or complicated materials.
E.Have your child read a book and then check out the video version of the book?
F.Consider making flashcards of these words and guessing the meanings before finding the definition.
G.It teaches your child to self-correct and also reduces their fear of dealing with difficult words.

Passage 7
(2025年高二上·山东威海·期末)During your teenage years, your body goes through many changes, and you may or may not like how your body develops. You start forming an image of your body. 31
You can develop either a positive or negative body image, depending on your mindset.
One of the major contributors of a negative body image is peer pressure. Even if you do not think you are being bullied by your group of friends, you may be laughed at casually about your appearance or you may simply notice that they seem more “perfect” than you. This can have a negative impact on your body image. 32 Often, an ideal body type is promoted heavily on social networks. Culture may also have a negative impact on one’s body image. If your culture values a particular body image, then that would make you unhappy if you don’t match it.
A negative body image increases the risk of unhealthy behaviors like extreme dieting, overeating, over exercising, isolation, and risky surgeries. It also lowers life satisfaction and can lead to unhappiness. 33
To have a more positive body image, first accept that we are all unique individuals. Imagine if everyone looked the same, the world would be a boring place. 34 Beauty standards keep changing all the time. What’s more, models and celebrities you see in the media may look “perfect” for the era, but, in fact, much of it is due to makeup, angles and lighting and Photoshop!
35 Avoid commenting on others’ looks, and you will stop criticizing yourself too. If you have peers who constantly comment about your appearance, it might be time to re-evaluate the company you keep.
Remember, your body image is simply YOUR perception (感知) of your body. This means YOU have the power to change this, even if you do not have the ability to change the perception of others.
A.Your body image is influenced by many factors.
B.Another major factor is what is shown in the media.
C.It is simply how you see, think and feel about yourself.
D.More importantly, there is no such thing as a perfect body.
E.In general, the key to a positive body image is self-acceptance.
F.Also, instead of focusing on appearances, learn to value people for who they really are.
G.Over focusing on appearance can stop you from appreciating your other positive qualities.

This can have a negative impact on your body image.(负面身体形象的主要原因之一是同伴压力。即使你认为你没有被你的一群朋友欺负,你可能会随意被嘲笑你的外表,或者你可能只是注意到他们看起来比你更“完美”。这会对你的身体形象产生负面影响)”以及后文“Often, an ideal body type is promoted heavily on social networks.(通常,理想的体型在社交网络上被大力宣传)”可知,后文主要说明了社交网络导致了负面身体形象,B选项中media对应后文social networks。故B选项“另一个主要因素是媒体所展示的内容”符合语境,故选B。

Passage 9
(2025年高二下·湖北·开学考试)Solitude (独处) gets a bad name because it’s often equated with loneliness. Loneliness involves being isolated (孤立的) despite wanting social connections, whereas being alone means taking time for yourself between regular social interactions. 41 . You can also be alone without having feelings of loneliness.
While there are downsides to loneliness, research has found real benefits of doing things alone. Here are several to consider.Improve concentration and memory
When you are working in a group, you might use less effort to memorize information. 42 . Working on things alone can help you focus your attention, which can improve your memory. In one study, researchers found that groups working collaboratively (合作地) to recall information performed worse than individuals recalling things on their own.
43
Spending time alone gives you time to focus on your interests. When you are surrounded by others, you might set your own ideas and passions aside to satisfy the needs of your friends and family. Taking time on your own gives you the opportunity to make creative choices and focus your attention without worrying about what other people are thinking.Boost creativity
Collaborative brainstorming is often seen as one of the best ways to generate new ideas. 44 . While group efforts are often about achieving consensus (共识) and fitting in with the crowd, working alone encourages innovation without added social pressure.Make you more sympathetic
A certain amount of alone time can help you have greater sympathy for the people around you. However, truly spending time alone isn’t always easy, especially with tech transforming alone time. If you are not able to be completely by yourself, cutting back on digital communication for a brief time might be helpful. 45 .
A.Put your interests first
B.Improve your relationships
C.You assume that others in the group will fill in the gaps
D.A little absence might really make the heart grow fonder
E.You can be lonely even when you are in the presence of others
F.A study found teens’ emotion interpretation improved after 5 device-free days
G.However, research shows individuals solve tough problems equally well when working alone
【答案】41.E 42.C 43.A 44.G 45.F
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了独处的好处,如能提高注意力和记忆力、让人优先关注自身兴趣、激发创造力、使人更具同情心等。
41.上文“Loneliness involves being isolated (孤立的) despite wanting social connections, whereas being alone means taking time for yourself between regular social interactions.(孤独是指尽管渴望社交联系却仍处于孤立状态,而独处则意味着在日常社交互动之间给自己留出时间)”对孤独和独处进行了定义。E选项“You can be lonely even when you are in the presence of others.(即使你和别人在一起,你也可能会感到孤独)”与后文“You can also be alone without having feelings of loneliness.(你也可以独自一人而不感到孤独)”构成并列结构,进行一步对孤独和独处两种状态进行举例说明,上下文语意一致。故选E项。
42.上文“When you are working in a group, you might use less effort to memorize information.(当你在一个团队中工作时,你可能会花更少的精力去记忆信息)”指出在小组中工作时,人们可能会减少记忆信息的努力。C选项“You assume that others in the group will fill in the gaps(你会认为小组里的其他人会填补这些空白)”说明人们会认为小组中的其他人会填补这些空缺,解释了在小组中为何会减少记忆信息努力的原因,与上文逻辑紧密。故选C项。
43.根据下文“Spending time alone gives you time to focus on your interests.(独处能让你有时间专注于自己的兴趣爱好)”可知,表明独处能让人有时间专注于自己的兴趣。A选项“Put your interests first(把你的兴趣放在首位)”与下文内容相契合,说明独处能让自己专注于自己的兴趣,是该段落的主题句。故选A项。
44.上文“Collaborative brainstorming is often seen as one of the best ways to generate new ideas.(合作式头脑风暴通常被视为产生新想法的最佳方式之一)”提到合作头脑风暴常被视为产生新想法的最佳方式之一。G选项“However, research shows individuals solve tough problems equally well when working alone(然而,研究表明,个人独自工作时也能同样出色地解决难题)”通过“However”构成转折,指出研究表明个人独自工作时也能同样很好地解决难题,与上文关于合作的观点形成对比,强调了独处的好处,照应小标题“Boost creativity(提高创造力)”。故选G项。
45.上文“If you are not able to be completely by yourself, cutting back on digital communication for a brief time might be helpful.(如果你不能完全独处,暂时减少数字通信可能会有帮助)”提出如果不能完全独处,暂时减少数字通讯可能会有帮助。F选项“A study found teens’ emotion interpretation improved after 5 device free days(一项研究发现,青少年在无电子设备陪伴的五天后,对情绪的理解能力有所提高)”举例说明一项研究发现青少年在无设备的五天后情绪解读能力有所提高,这是减少数字通讯带来积极效果的例子,与上文逻辑一致。故选F项。

Are you ready to unlock endless growth? In a fast-changing world, staying successful requires constant improvement. Lifelong learning is the key to gaining unlimited knowledge. 51
Start your learning journey with books. Becoming a lifelong learner begins with reading on purpose. 52 Approach each book as a journey, not just a task. Dive deep into the ideas, challenge your current views, and expand your knowledge. Try to connect concepts and think about how they relate to your goals, not just finishing the book.
Join a learning community or peer group. 53 By joining a group, you meet people who share interests and struggles with you. This helps with cooperation and support. Joining discussions, workshops, and projects deepens your learning, and getting feedback from peers speeds up your progress. It also helps grow in your career and create networking opportunities.

Think about how they relate to your goals. This habit helps organize your thoughts, make connections, challenge old beliefs and improve your understanding.
Make lifelong learning part of your life. Becoming a lifelong learner doesn’t require a big change right away. 55 Instead of scrolling through social media at breakfast, read an article you saved. Listen to a productivity podcast instead of music, or watch a documentary about a business innovator instead of a sitcom. Over time, these small changes will become lasting habits.
A.Think about your life purpose.
B.Write daily learning reflections.
C.Interact with like-minded people.
D.Let’s dive in and discover its secrets.
E.Learning is both personal and shared.
F.Pick topics that interest you or abilities you want to improve.
G.Start with small, simple steps, like being mindful of your time.

Passage 13
How to Do basic first Aid
Basic first aid refers to a temporary form of help given to someone who has been injured or has got sick due to choking, a heart attack, drugs or other medical emergencies. 61 .
Care for the person who has just gone through serious damage, including both physical treatment and emotional support. 62 . Let the person know that help is on its way and that everything will be all right. Also you can ask for their names, if they know what has happened, and then about their interests.
63 . You’d better listen for the sound of air coming in and out, and feel for air using the side of your face. If there are no signs of breathing, place two fingers under the chin (下巴) and gently guide the face pointing upwards to open up their airways.
Perform 30 chest compressions (心肺复苏) and two rescue breaths as part of CPR. 64 . And then press the chest down about 2 inches at a rate of 100 compressions per minute. After 30 compressions, give two rescue breaths, done by opening the airways, closing the nose and fully covering the mouth hole.
Make sure the person is warm as you wait for medical help. Remove some of your own clothing, such as your coat or jacket, and use it as a cover until medical help arrives. However, if the person has a heatstroke (中暑), do not cover him or keep him warm. 65

Passage 14
Medicine is a degree that consists of an endless number of exams, and recently I received my first year results. Waiting for those results was one of the most anxiety-generating experiences.
66 Failure brings judgement from others, a topic of discussion for people and the right for others to say you are not capable. The stress associated with failure is created by others around you, rather than by the event itself.
I have recently been reading The Psychology of Money by Morgan Housel, which clarifies that failure has a strong presence among those who have achieved success. People will always focus on Warren Buffett’s success as an investor. 67
The process of achieving success has often involved setbacks and “failures” along the way. I was rejected by medical schools which I’d spent time and effort applying to and preparing for. And I once received a “pass” grade on an important research paper during my master’s, which put my final grade in a dangerous situation. 68 I also began pursuing my doctoral degree last year.
69 But you should know that with each failure you are closer to success, building further layers to the foundations you started. Behind every successful person are more obstacles and setbacks, but these are not as interesting to focus on or as enviable.
The noise around you, whether it is from coworkers, friends or parents, should not shake your belief in your abilities. 70 Learn what you need and correct your approach until you have success.
A.You are guaranteed a lifetime of success.
B.Failure is your platform to achieve success.
C.I was turned down by countless graduate schemes.
D.You may not be successful the first, second or however many times.
E.Upon reflection I believe that this is partly as a result of failure itself.
F.Despite all of this, I ended up getting my master’s with honors.
G.However, rarely will they see how many times his investments have failed.
【答案】66.E 67.G 68.F 69.D 70.B
【导语】本文是议论文。文章主要讲述失败不可怕,反而是通往成功的平台。
66.根据上文“Waiting for those results was one of the most anxiety-generating experiences.(等待这些结果是最让人焦虑的经历之一。)”和下文“Failure brings judgement from others, a topic of discussion for people and the right for others to say you are not capable.(失败带来了别人的评判,成为人们讨论的话题,也给了别人说你无能的权利。)”可知,上文提到等待结果的过程是很让人焦虑的,原因应该是害怕会有失败的结果,下文分析了失败会带来什么样的结果。选项E“Upon reflection I believe that this is partly as a result of failure itself.(经过反思,我认为这部分是失败本身的结果。)”符合语境,承上启下。故选E。
67.上文提到“failure has a strong presence among those who have achieved success(在那些取得成功的人中间,失败是无处不在的)”,故可推知本段主要在讲那些获得成功的人往往都经历过失败。作者在该段中列举了巴菲特的例子,由此推知,接下来要提及巴菲特也有投资失败的时候。选项G“However, rarely will they see how many times his investments have failed.(然而,他们很少会看到他的投资失败了多少次。)”符合语境,选项中的they指代上文中的People。故选G。
68.上文“I was rejected by medical schools which I’d spent time and effort applying to and preparing for. And I once received a “pass” grade on an important research paper during my master’s, which put my final grade in a dangerous situation.(我花了很多时间和精力申请和准备的医学院拒绝了我。在我读硕士期间,我曾经有一篇重要的研究论文得了“及格”的分数,这让我的期末成绩陷入了危险的境地。)”提到作者曾经的失败经历,下文“I also began pursuing my doctoral degree last year.(去年我也开始攻读博士学位。)”提到他还开始攻读博士学位,由“also”可知空处为过渡句,表示作者虽然经历种种失败,但是后来还是在学业上取得了成功。选项F“Despite all of this, I ended up getting my master’s with honors.(尽管如此,我还是以优异的成绩获得了硕士学位。)”承上启下,符合语境。故选F。
69.空后说“But you should know that with each failure you are closer to success, building further layers to the foundations you started.(但你应该知道,每一次失败都让你离成功更近了一步,在你开始的基础上建立起更深的层次。)”,说明人会可能会失败很多次,D选项“You may not be successful the first, second or however many times.(你可能第一次、第二次或很多次都不会成功。)”说明你可能会失败多次,选项中的“not be successful”对应下文中的“failure”,因此引起下文,符合语境。故选D。
70.根据下文“Learn what you need and correct your approach until you have success.(了解你需要什么,并纠正你的方法,直到你成功。)”可知,这是在说学会从失败中吸取教训,不断改正自己的方法以获取成功。故B项“Failure is your platform to achieve success.(失败是你取得成功的平台。)”说明了要从失败中吸取教训,因此引起下文,符合文意。故选B。
Passage 15
With our already busy lives, finding time to exercise can feel like one more thing on our ‘to do’ list. 71 The answer is ‘yes’, but it’s easier than you think-no matter who you are, or when you like to work out.
72 Many of us have more free time in the morning compared to later in the day, and it may therefore be easier for us to stick to a morning workout routine. A 2010 study conducted by the Scandinavian Journal of Medicine and Science in Sports found that participants who exercised in the morning, increased their physical activity throughout the day, were less distracted by food, and slept better. Exercising on an empty stomach before breakfast could burn more fat and increase metabolism (新陈代谢) too.
So, good news for early birds, but what if you’re not a morning person? Working out in the afternoon or evening also has benefits, just different ones. 73 Also, in the afternoon and evening, your reaction time is quickest, and your heart rate and blood pressure are lowest, which reduce your chance of injury while improving performance.
But does any of this change depend on whether you’re a man or a woman? Our bodies are different, after all, so the best time to exercise may be different. A 2022 study from Skidmore College, New York, looked at exactly this question and the results showed that there are some differences. 74 Exercise in the morning. Want to improve your heart health and you’re a man? Evening is better for you. But, ultimately, the study found that there are clear benefits for both sexes to exercising at either time of day.
So what time is best? 75 .
A.So does your amount of exercise count?
B.Want to lose weight and be more charming?
C.There are clear benefits to exercising in the morning.
D.It seems the answer is: whatever time is best for you!
E.Want to reduce your blood pressure and you’re a woman?
F.For example, your body’s ability to perform peaks in the afternoon.
G.So could exercising at certain times help maximize our fitness goals?
【答案】71.G 72.C 73.F 74.E 75.D
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一天中的最佳锻炼时间
71.上文“With our already busy lives, finding time to exercise can feel like one more thing on our ‘to do’ list. (在我们已经忙碌的生活中,找时间锻炼就像是我们“要做”的清单上的另一件事。)”提到了锻炼的问题,下文“The answer is ‘yes’, but it’s easier than you think - no matter who you are, or when you like to work out. (答案是肯定的,但这比你想象的要容易——不管你是谁,也不管你喜欢什么时候锻炼。)”是对有关锻炼问题的一个回答,选项G中exercising是关键词与上文呼应,所以G选项“那么,在特定的时间锻炼能帮助我们达到最大的健身目标吗?”能承上启下,符合语境。故选G项。
72.下文“A 2010 study conducted by the Scandinavian Journal of Medicine and Science in Sports found that participants who exercised in the morning, increased their physical activity throughout the day, were less distracted by food, and slept better. Exercising on an empty stomach before breakfast could burn more fat and increase metabolism (新陈代谢)too. (《斯堪的纳维亚体育医学与科学杂志》在2010年进行的一项研究发现,早上锻炼的参与者,在一天中增加体力活动,更少被食物分散注意力,睡眠更好。早餐前空腹锻炼可以燃烧更多的脂肪,促进新陈代谢。)”提到了晨练的好处,选项C中exercising in the morning是关键词,与下文呼应,所以C选项“早上锻炼有明显的好处。”能概括下文内容。故选C项。
73.上文“Working out in the afternoon or evening also has benefits, just different ones. (在下午或晚上锻炼也有好处,只是好处不同。)”提到了下午或晚上锻炼,选项F中in the afternoon是关键词,与上文呼应,所以F选项“例如,你身体的工作能力在下午达到顶峰。”能承接上文。故选F项。
74.下文“Exercise in the morning. (早晨锻炼。)”提到了早晨锻炼,继续说“Want to improve your heart health and you’re a man? Evening is better for you. (想要改善你的心脏健康,而你是一个男人?晚上对你比较合适。)”提到了晚上锻炼,此处上下文是表对比的关系,所以E选项“如果你是女性,想要降低血压?”能与下文构成对比关系。故选E项。
75.上文“So what time is best? (那么什么时间最合适呢?)”是询问时间,所以D选项“答案似乎是:任何时间对你来说都是最好的!”是对上文的回答,符合语境。故选D项。
Passage 16
Mental health is a critical aspect of overall well-being, yet it is often ignored in our fast- paced society. 76 A well-cared and healthy mind leads to improved emotions, better relationships, and a more positive outlook on life.
77 When we are stressed or upset, it is our mind’s way of reacting to negative stimuli(刺激). Good mental health allows us to cope with these emotions in a positive manner. In addition, when our minds are not clouded by negative thoughts or emotions it is easier to think clearly. 78
Studies have shown that a person with good mental health lives longer and has a higher quality of life. The effects of positive mental health on the body are plenty, including reducing the risk of diseases and improving overall physical well-being.
Our mental state has a significant impact on relationships. People with good mental health are more likely to be kind and understanding. 79 This may further guarantee them with a stable emotional condition.
Mental health is as essential as physical health in maintaining a fulfilling life. If we run into trouble, don’t keep it to yourself. 80 With the right support, we can all enjoy the benefits of a healthy mind.
A.Turn to friends or families.
B.They strongly connect with others.
C.Physical health has been a problem.

Passage 17
(2025年高二上·山西·阶段练习)Few people get excited about meetings. Meetings often become long-winded affairs where many people are not really contributing, and, sometimes, that happens because the people have no real reason to be there.

Passage 18
(2025年高二下·浙江·开学考试)The shape of Australia’s school system is undergoing a significant change. Enrollments(入学人数) in independent schools are growing, while fewer students are going to public schools. Why are more families choosing an independent school, when they could send their children to a free public option? 86
One reason may be policy changes that allowed the establishment of new independent schools in Australia. In the 1990s, the Howard government changed a policy to allow funding for the establishment of new schools, even in areas that already had adequate capacity in existing schools.
New independent schools tend to charge lower fees than established elite schools. 87 According to Independent Schools Australia, the largest growth in enrollments is in schools charging fees of around A$5,0 00 per year.
88 New South Wales Education Minister Prue Car has spoken about this issue for her own son, who attends an independent primary school: “We were in one of the suburbs where the government didn’t build a school.”
Compared to other countries, Australian schools have a high level of “socioeconomic segregation(社会经济隔离)”. 89 The increase in students going to fee-paying private schools means we are seeing increasing segregation in our school system.
Public schools continue to educate the majority of children in remote locations. 90 Independent schools enroll increasing proportions of students from the most advantaged socioeconomic backgrounds.
A.What account for this shift?
B.How should we deal with this shift?
C.They are those from disadvantaged backgrounds.
D.That makes them more accessible to middle-income families.
E.Parents will naturally choose what they perceive to be the best school.
F.This means different types of schools have students from different backgrounds.
G.In some cases, state governments are slow to build new public schools in suburbs.
【答案】86.A 87.D 88.G 89.F 90.C
【导语】本文为一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了澳大利亚独立学校的入学人数超过公立学校的入学人数的原因。
86.根据空前“Why are more families choosing an independent school, when they could send their children to a free public option?(为什么更多的家庭选择独立学校,而不是免费的公立学校呢?)”和空后“One reason may be policy changes that allowed the establishment of new independent schools in Australia.(一个原因可能是政策的变化,允许在澳大利亚建立新的独立学校。)”可知,空前提出问题,为什么更多的家庭选择独立学校,空后提出了其中一个可能的原因,故A项“什么导致了这种转变呢?”符合,在此处承上启下,A项中的that shift指代前文的“更多的家庭选择独立学校”,引出后文的具体原因,故选A项。
87.根据空前“New independent schools tend to charge lower fees than established elite schools.(新的独立学校往往比老牌精英学校的收费更低。)”可知,独立学校比老牌精英学校收费低,D项“这使得中收入家庭更能支付。”是空前的顺义承接,因此,中收入家庭更能支付,从而导致更多的家庭选择独立学校,D项中的“them”指代空前的“New independent schools”,故选D项。
88.根据空后“New South Wales Education Minister Prue Car has spoken about this issue for her own son, who attends an independent primary school: “We were in one of the suburbs where the government didn’t build a school.”(新南威尔士州教育部长Prue Car曾谈到她儿子的这个问题,他就读于一所独立的小学:“我们住在一个政府没有建学校的郊区。”)”可知,本段主要介绍了教育部长的儿子就读独立学校的原因是他们住在一个政府没有建学校的郊区,故G项“在某些情况下,州政府在郊区建设新公立学校的速度较慢。”符合,总结后文内容,说明越来越多的家庭选择独立学校的另一个原因是因为州政府在郊区建设新公立学校的速度较慢,故选G项。
89.根据空前“Compared to other countries, Australian schools have a high level of “socioeconomic segregation(社会经济隔离)”.(与其他国家相比,澳大利亚的学校具有较高的社会经济隔离水平。)”和空后“The increase in students going to fee-paying private schools means we are seeing increasing segregation in our school system.(去付费私立学校的学生人数的增加意味着我们的学校系统中的隔离现象越来越严重。)”可知,空前提到了澳大利亚学校社会经济隔离水平较高,空后提出了去私立学校的人数增加导致这种隔离现象越来越严重,故F项“这意味着不同学校的学生来自不同的背景。”符合,澳大利亚学校具有较高的社会经济隔离水平,就意味着不同学校的学生来自不同的背景,去私立学校的人更多也就意味着这种隔离现象越来越严重,故选F项。
90.根据空前“Public schools continue to educate the majority of children in remote locations.(公立学校继续教育偏远地区的大多数儿童。)”可知,空前提到公立学校教育的是偏远地区的儿童,故C项“他们都是背景不太优越的孩子。”符合,C项中的“They”指代前文的“the majority of children in remote locations”,公立学校教育的是偏远地区的儿童,他们都是背景不太优越的孩子,故选C项。

Passage 1
(2025年高二下·河北保定·开学考试)It is no secret that social media is harmful to everyone for many reasons: from general internet safety, to causing insecurities or becoming a major distraction. 1 Social media can have a large impact on people’s perspectives, opinions and the way they view the world — especially teenagers.
In recent years, social media creators have done a really effective job of creating algorithms (算法) that can keep track of what you engage with, and provide more content based on your preferences and interests. 2 Exposure to only one perspective in the long run can lead to what are called echo chambers, or situations in which one’s beliefs are constantly supported by the people around them, rather than hearing other opinions.
3 By only being exposed to people who agree with you, you are prevented from considering other perspectives, which perpetuates (使持续) close-minded attitudes. Since social media users are used to seeing content they agree with, the first opinion that they see on a new issue is the one they are most likely to agree with, despite not hearing opposing thoughts. 4
Recently, the term “chronically online takes” has resurfaced on social media. This concept refers to opinions that only seem to exist online, and lack the support of real world experience.
5 In fact, chronically online takes are problematic themselves, successfully weakening actual issues that should be called out.
A.This fails to show respect for your privacy.
B.This ensures that you continue using social media.
C.Usually, it takes the form of calling things problematic.
D.However, the negatives of social media go even deeper than that.
E.The key issue is that people are content with being told what to think.
F.The problem with echo chambers is that they discourage critical thinking.
G.Echo chambers increase social media users’ impatience and kills their creativity.
【答案】1.D 2.B 3.F 4.E 5.C
【导语】本文是说明文。讲述了社交媒体妨碍批判性思维。
1.根据前文“It is no secret that social media is harmful to everyone for many reasons: from general internet safety, to causing insecurities or becoming a major distraction.(众所周知,社交媒体对每个人都有害,原因有很多:从一般的互联网安全,到造成不安全感或成为主要的分心因素)”以及后文“Social media can have a large impact on people’s perspectives, opinions and the way they view the world — especially teenagers.(社交媒体对人们的观点、看法以及他们看待世界的方式有着巨大影响,尤其是对青少年而言)”可知,前文讲述社交媒体的坏处,后面进一步讲述坏处,所以D项“However, the negatives of social media go even deeper than that.(然而,社交媒体的负面影响远不止于此)”和前文构成转折关系,并引出后文,符合文意。故选D项。
2.根据前文“In recent years, social media creators have done a really effective job of creating algorithms (算法) that can keep track of what you engage with, and provide more content based on your preferences and interests.(近年来,社交媒体创建者在创建算法方面做了非常有效的工作,这些算法可以跟踪你参与的内容,并根据你的偏好和兴趣提供更多内容)”可知,B项“This ensures that you continue using social media.(这可以确保你继续使用社交媒体)”是讲述前文内容的结果,符合文意。故选B项。
3.设空位于段首,为本段中心句,根据后文“By only being exposed to people who agree with you, you are prevented from considering other perspectives, which perpetuates (使持续) close-minded attitudes.(只接触与你意见一致的人,你就无法考虑其他观点,从而使思想封闭的态度永久化)”以及上文内容“Exposure to only one perspective in the long run can lead to what are called echo chambers, or situations in which one’s beliefs are constantly supported by the people around them, rather than hearing other opinions.(长期只接触一种观点会导致所谓的回音室,或者一个人的信仰不断得到周围人的支持,而不是听到其他观点的情况)”可知,F项“The problem with echo chambers is that they discourage critical thinking.(回音室的问题在于它阻碍了批判性思维)”承接上文,后文是对本句的解释,符合文意。故选F项。
4.设空位于段尾,是对前文的总结,根据前文“Since social media users are used to seeing content they agree with, the first opinion that they see on a new issue is the one they are most likely to agree with, despite not hearing opposing thoughts.(由于社交媒体用户习惯于看到他们同意的内容,他们在新问题上看到的第一个观点就是他们最有可能同意的观点,尽管他们没有听到相反的观点)”可知,E项“The key issue is that people are content with being told what to think.(关键问题是,人们满足于被告知该怎么想)”是对前文的总结,讲述人们没有听到相反的观点,但是很满足。故选E项。
5.设空位于段首,为本段中心句,根据后文“In fact, chronically online takes are problematic themselves, successfully weakening actual issues that should be called out.(事实上,那些经常上网发表的观点本身就有问题,它们成功地弱化了那些本应被指出的实际问题)”可知,C项“Usually, it takes the form of calling things problematic.(通常,这种做法表现为将事物称为“有问题”)”符合本段主题,讲述网上发表的观点有问题。故选C项。
Passage 2
(2025年高二下·江苏南京·开学考试)Success often comes to those who dare to dream and strive for their goals. However, achieving success is not just about hard work and determination; it also involves learning from mistakes and setbacks along the way. The adage “failure is the stepping stone to success” holds true in many cases.
The reality is that failure can indeed be a powerful teacher. 6 Because we naturally dislike failing, learning from our failures becomes emotionally challenging. It’s uncomfortable and can lead us to react defensively, such as by avoiding difficult tasks, convincing ourselves that we don’t care about succeeding, or criticizing the task itself. According to Dr. Jane Miller, a cognitive psychologist, these reactions are protective mechanisms. In her view, most individuals prefer to see themselves as competent and capable.
Fortunately, there are strategies to help us overcome these emotional barriers. 7 Instead of asking, “Why did I fail?” we might ask, “Why did Alex fail?” This technique helps reduce negative emotional responses and allows us to analyze the situation more objectively.
Another effective strategy is to share your experiences with others. 8 By offering advice based on personal failures, individuals can gain deeper insights into their own experiences. Research conducted by Professor Mark Thompson found that this practice enhances motivation and leads to greater academic and professional achievements among both adults and children.
Moreover, reflecting on past failures can inspire new approaches and ideas. 9 As the renowned inventor Thomas Edison once said, “I have not failed. I’ve just found 10,000 ways that won’t work.” His perspective encourages us to view each setback as an opportunity for growth rather than a defeat.
10 By mastering the skills to navigate through these challenges, we can turn our failures into valuable lessons that pave the way to future success.
A.Everyone needs success
B.Hard work leads to success
C.Failure can be a teachable moment
D.Failure is an unavoidable part of life
E.One of them is to adopt a third-person view
F.Next, offer advice to others in the same position as us
G.So what failure causes is a serious threat to our self-image
【答案】6.G 7.E 8.F 9.C 10.D
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讨论了失败在成功过程中的作用,以及如何通过不同的策略从失败中学习并克服由此产生的情感障碍。
6.根据下文内容“Because we naturally dislike failing, learning from our failures becomes emotionally challenging. It’s uncomfortable and can lead us to react defensively, such as by avoiding difficult tasks, convincing ourselves that we don’t care about succeeding, or criticizing the task itself. (因为我们本能地厌恶失败,所以从失败中学习在情感上颇具挑战性。这会让我们感到不舒服,并可能导致我们做出防御性反应,例如避免困难的任务,说服自己不在乎成功,或者批评任务本身。)”可知,下文指出我们不愿意从失败中学习,失败还会让人变得不积极,选项G“So what failure causes is a serious threat to our self-image (所以失败对我们的自我形象是一个严重威胁)”指出失败对人的不利之处。故选G。
7.根据下文“Instead of asking, “Why did I fail?” we might ask, “Why did Alex fail?” This technique helps reduce negative emotional responses and allows us to analyze the situation more objectively.(我们可以问“为什么亚历克斯失败了?”,而不是问 “为什么我失败了?”。这种方法有助于减少负面情绪反应,让我们更客观地分析情况。)”可知,下文建议我们从问自己失败原因转变为问他人失败原因的方式,就是采用第三人称视角。选项E“One of them is to adopt a third-person view(其中一个方法是采用第三人称视角)”与下文内容相符。故选E。
8.根据空前内容“Another effective strategy is to share your experiences with others.(另一个有效的策略是与他人分享你的经历。)”可知,作者建议我们可以与他人分享自己的经历。选项F“Next, offer advice to others in the same position as us(接下来,给和我们处于相同处境的人提供建议)”进一步阐述了与他人分享经验后,给相同处境的人提建议这一做法,符合语境。故选F。
9.根据下文“As the renowned inventor Thomas Edison once said, “I have not failed. I’ve just found 10,000 ways that won’t work.” His perspective encourages us to view each setback as an opportunity for growth rather than a defeat.(正如著名发明家Thomas Edison曾经说过的:“我并没有失败。我只是发现了一万种行不通的方法。”他的观点鼓励我们将每一次挫折都视为成长的机会,而非失败。)”可知,下文指出我们应该将失败视作成长的机会。选项C“Failure can be a teachable moment(失败可以是一个可教时刻)”指出,失败可以是一个我们从中学习的时刻。与下文内容相符。故选C。
10.根据下文“By mastering the skills to navigate through these challenges, we can turn our failures into valuable lessons that pave the way to future success.(通过掌握应对这些挑战的技能,我们可以将失败转化为宝贵的经验教训,为未来的成功铺平道路。)”可知失败是不可避免的,所以可以将失败变成宝贵的经验教训,为未来的成功铺平道路,D“Failure is an unavoidable part of life(失败是生活中不可避免的一部分。)”引出失败的不可避免性,并与下文形成逻辑上的因果关系。故选D。
Passage 3
(2025年高二下·浙江温州·开学考试)At some point, everyone has faced unkind remarks or actions. Whether it’s teasing from classmates or harsh words from peers, dealing with such situations can be challenging. 11 Here are some tips to help you respond effectively and build your confidence.
Practice comebacks. Quick, confident replies - known as comebacks - can stop bullies in their tracks. Instead of waiting for the perfect moment, try practicing. Ask a friend or a sympathetic adult to role-play with you. If you don’t feel comfortable with this, you can try it on your own in the mirror. Notice which style of comeback feels most natural to you. For example, if humor doesn’t feel natural, a calm response like “Are you finished?” may be more effective. 12
Learn a little about your bully. Bullies are usually very socially intelligent and great people-readers. They can easily see which comments get under people’s skin. You can benefit from building up this same skill, but using it for defense instead of for aggression (like the bully). Watch the bully’s reaction when you deliver your comeback and the reaction of others around him. Did he respond with surprise or walk away? 13 Watch for patterns and make note of what worked and what didn’t.
14 Sometimes comebacks can lead to more insults and even violence. Keep an eye out for signs that the person is becoming aggressive. The person may touch his head or face and clench (握紧) his fists. The person may remove an article of clothing, and may crouch down slightly. In addition, the person may turn his non-dominant side toward you; so, a left-handed person may turn his right side toward you. If you notice any of these behaviors, do not try to make a comeback and back away from the person.
Get help. If someone is bullying you regularly, get help from a teacher or a parent. 15 If you can’t solve the problem informally, get someone in a position of authority involved. You shouldn’t have to deal with constant insults from a bully in any situation.
A.Come up with safety ideas.
B.Watch for physical signals of violence.
C.Then the comeback style used was successful.
D.Bullies are less likely to pick on you if you aren’t alone.
E.You can also get in a lot of trouble for using these kinds of insults.
F.While ignoring them sometimes works, a more active approach is often needed.
G.Use what works best for you until you can practice and use the other methods effectively.
【答案】11.F 12.G 13.C 14.B 15.D
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了面对他人不友善言行时,如何有效回应和增强自信的一些建议。
11.上文“At some point, everyone has faced unkind remarks or actions. Whether it’s teasing from classmates or harsh words from peers, dealing with such situations can be challenging. (在某个时刻,每个人都曾面对过不友善的言论或行为。无论是来自同学的嘲笑还是同龄人的严厉言辞,应对这类情况都可能颇具挑战性。)”指出人们会遇到不友善情况且应对有挑战,F选项“While ignoring them sometimes works, a more active approach is often needed. (虽然有时忽视它们会起作用,但通常需要更积极的方法。)”既提到了常见的忽视方法,又引出后文要介绍积极应对的建议,与上下文逻辑连贯。故选F项。
12.上文“Notice which style of comeback feels most natural to you. For example, if humor doesn’t feel natural, a calm response like ‘Are you finished?’ may be more effective. (注意哪种回应方式对你来说最自然。例如,如果幽默对你来说不自然,像‘你说完了吗?’这样冷静的回应可能更有效。)”强调要找到适合自己的回应方式,G选项“Use what works best for you until you can practice and use the other methods effectively. (使用最适合你的方法,直到你能有效练习并使用其他方法。)”承接上文,进一步说明先使用适合自己的方式,符合逻辑。故选G项。
13.上文“Watch the bully’s reaction when you deliver your comeback and the reaction of others around him. Did he respond with surprise or walk away? (当你做出回应时,观察欺负者的反应以及他周围其他人的反应。他是惊讶地回应还是走开了?)”提出要观察欺负者的反应,C选项“Then the comeback style used was successful. (那么所使用的回应方式就是成功的。)”根据上文提到的欺负者的反应,得出回应方式成功的结论,逻辑合理。故选C项。
14.下文“Sometimes comebacks can lead to more insults and even violence. Keep an eye out for signs that the person is becoming aggressive. (有时回应可能会导致更多的侮辱甚至暴力。留意那个人变得有攻击性的迹象。)”主要围绕留意暴力的身体信号展开,B选项“Watch for physical signals of violence. (留意暴力的身体信号。)”与下文内容一致,起到了总领段落的作用。故选B项。
15.上文“If someone is bullying you regularly, get help from a teacher or a parent .(如果有人经常欺负你,向老师或家长寻求帮助。)”建议向他人寻求帮助,D选项“Bullies are less likely to pick on you if you aren’t alone. (如果你不是独自一人,欺负者就不太可能找你麻烦。)”说明寻求帮助后有人陪伴,欺负者就不敢轻易欺负你,与上文寻求帮助的内容相呼应。故选D项。
Passage 4
(2025年高二下·安徽·开学考试)These days, it’s not unusual to see adult taking an interest in toys, comic books and the activities that are traditionally associated with children. This phenomenon has given rise to a new word: kidult.
16 One is about adults’ nostalgia (怀旧之情) for the carefree days of childhood, and this is especially true with today’s fast-paced, stressful lifestyles. Another is about a societal change in recent decades where people are starting families later. 17 Some adults could only window-shop for their dream toys when they were kids, but now they can afford that radio controlled car or high-priced doll they have always wanted.
Businesses have been quick to exploit (利用) the kidult trend, and the number of toy stores that target adults has risen. Companies are repackaging products from past decades and also bringing out new ones for adults. 18
Society traditionally disapproves of adults who refuse to put aside childhood interests, 19 Those who agree with this view sometimes claim that kidults are suffering from the pop-psychology concept known as Peter Pan Syndrome, an anomaly (异常) that people remain emotionally at the level of teenagers.
From the standpoint of kidults, though, this phenomenon is seen as nothing but harmless fun. Kidults insist that having youthful interests keeps them young, happy and creative. 20 The real causes include expensive housing, increased educational requirements for employment and poor work opportunities.
Whether the kidult phenomenon will continue to grow or prove to be a passing trend is anyone’s guess. As the debate about it continues, remember that there is nothing wrong with being young at heart.
A.What lies behind the phenomenon?
B.There are two types of this social trend.
C.viewing the refusal as social immaturity and irresponsibility.
D.As a result, they have more time and money to spend on themselves.
E.and their refusal to follow society’s acceptable tastes shows independent thinking.
F.Besides, they argue that being part of this social trend is not purely a personal choice.
G.Lego, for example, has brought out an architectural series featuring worldwide landmarks.
【答案】16.A 17.D 18.G 19.C 20.F
【导语】本文是说明文。文章介绍了一种社会趋势:kidult即成人喜欢儿童相关的玩具和活动等,本文介绍了其成因、商业发展趋势、不同社会评价和作者简要个人观点。
16.根据第一段“These days, it’s not unusual to see adult taking an interest in toys, comic books and the activities that are traditionally associated with children. This phenomenon has given rise to a new word: kidult.( 如今,成年人对玩具、漫画书和传统上与儿童有关的活动感兴趣并不罕见。这种现象产生了一个新词:kidult。)”和下文“One is about adults’ nostalgia (怀旧之情) for the carefree days of childhood, and this is especially true with today’s fast-paced, stressful lifestyles. Another is about a societal change in recent decades where people are starting families later.( 一个是关于成年人对无忧无虑的童年的怀念,尤其是在今天快节奏、紧张的生活方式下。另一个是关于近几十年来的社会变化,人们开始晚婚。)”可知,本段分析了kidult这种现象的两种可能的原因:一是成年人的怀旧之情,二是成家时间较晚。A项“这一现象背后的原因是什么?”符合语境。故选A。
17.根据前文“Another is about a societal change in recent decades where people are starting families later.( 另一个是关于近几十年来的社会变化,人们开始晚婚。)”和下文“Some adults could only window-shop for their dream toys when they were kids, but now they can afford that radio controlled car or high-priced doll they have always wanted.(有些成年人小时候只能在橱窗里买他们梦寐以求的玩具,但现在他们可以买得起他们一直想要的遥控汽车或高价娃娃。)”可推断本句与前一句成家较晚是因后果关系,因为成家晚,所以他们有更多时间金钱花在自己身上。与后一句过去买不起的现在能负担得起形成解释说明关系,同时money与afford词义呼应。因此推断D项“因此,他们有更多的时间和金钱花在自己身上。”。故选D。
18.本句对前一句“Companies are repackaging products from past decades and also bringing out new ones for adults.(公司正在重新包装过去几十年的产品,并为成年人推出新的产品)”公司重新包装过去的玩具并同时开发给成年人的新玩具解释说明。G选项“例如,乐高推出了一个以世界各地地标为主题的建筑系列。”用举例的方式,对前文进行具体的支撑解释,乐高全世界地标系列就是前句“new ones for adults”的具体实例。故选G。
19.本题为半句,根据前文“Society traditionally disapproves of adults who refuse to put aside childhood interests(传统上,社会不赞成成年人不把童年的兴趣放在一边)”可知,社会传统上不支持那些拒绝放弃儿时兴趣的成年人,可知该句应该填入反对观点,故选项C“认为这种拒绝是社会的不成熟和不负责任。”符合语境。故选C。
20.根据前文“From the standpoint of kidults, though, this phenomenon is seen as nothing but harmless fun. Kidults insist that having youthful interests keeps them young, happy and creative.(然而,从kidults的角度来看,这种现象只不过是无害的娱乐。kidults坚持认为,拥有年轻的兴趣爱好能让他们保持年轻、快乐和创造性。)”和下文“The real causes include expensive housing, increased educational requirements for employment and poor work opportunities.(真正的原因包括昂贵的住房、更高的就业教育要求和糟糕的工作机会。)”可推断,本段从kidults视角,认为这一现象没什么大不了,不过是一种无害的乐趣罢了。因此推断F项“此外,他们认为成为这一社会趋势的一部分并不纯粹是个人的选择。”符合语境,与前句形成并列关系,先后从个体和群体两个维度进行阐述,说明这一趋势不仅是个人选择,也与后文进一步补充分析的社会压力大、生活成本高、负担重等有关。故选F。
Passage 5
(23-24高二下·福建泉州·期中)To get the most out of literary works, one must approach them with intention and skill. Here are five key strategies to enhance your reading experience.
Engage with the text. Engagement is crucial when reading literature. 21 . Ask questions as you read: Why did the character do that? What does this scene symbolize?

21.根据前文“Engage with the text. Engagement is crucial when reading literature. (与文本互动。在阅读文学作品时,投入是至关重要的)”可知,本段的主题是讲述与文本互动,所以G项“This means actively interacting with the text, not just reading the words (这意味着积极地与文本互动,而不仅仅是阅读单词)”是对前句的进一步解释,而后文“Ask questions as you read: Why did the character do that? What does this scene symbolize? What might the author be trying to say? This active engagement helps you to think critically and to immerse (沉浸在) yourself in the literary world. (当你阅读的时候问一些问题:为什么这个角色要那样做?这个场景象征着什么?作者可能想说什么?这种积极的参与可以帮助你批判性地思考,让自己沉浸在文学世界中)”是讲述互动的具体方法。故选G项。

(它反映了它被创作时的文化。通过对历史时期、作者生平、当时社会规范的研究,可以对文本有更深的了解)”可知,本段讲述通过了解文章背后的历史和文化背景,来增加对文章的了解,所以C项“Every piece of literature is a product of its time (每一部文学作品都是它所处时代的产物)”是对前文的进一步解释,并引出下文,符合文意。故选C项。
23.设空处位于段首,为本段中心句,根据后文“Literature is an art form that uses language in creative and often complex ways.

24.根据前文“Reflect on themes and personal relevance. Great literature often deals with themes that are universal and timeless. Reflect on the themes you encounter in the text and consider how they relate to your own experiences and beliefs. (反思主题和个人相关性。伟大的文学作品往往涉及普遍和永恒的主题。反思你在文章中遇到的主题,并考虑它们与你自己的经历和信仰的关系)”可知,本段主要讲述,通过联系文章主题和个人经历来理解文章,所以F项“This personal connection can make reading more meaningful (这种个人联系可以使阅读更有意义)”介绍前文提到的方法的好处,符合文意。故选F项。

Passage 6
(2025年高二上·江西宜春·阶段练习)Some children love reading, some dislike it, and many are in between. Most children and adults are drawn to reading materials that are engaging and understandable. 26 So building reading abilities is always a good idea. As a parent, you can help your child develop reading skills with enjoyable activities, some of which you might not have thought of as reading enrichment. Here are some easy reading strategies for parents to use at home.
27 When your child creates a story out loud or in written form, you can prompt more specific vocabulary and encourage your child to dive into descriptive details. This activity provides practice for thinking through logical sequences (顺序) and may motivate curiosity as a child looks for books in similar settings.
Compare books to films. 28 If yes, talk about the similarities and differences between the two mediums. What did you each like or dislike about each form? Did your child prefer the book or the movie, and why?
Encourage curiosity about vocabulary. As your child reads books, suggest that you look up difficult or unfamiliar words in the dictionary together. 29 This builds the skill of inference (推理), which is thinking through the possible answers based on the context.
Strengthen spelling skills. If you are making flashcards with difficult words, have your child practice spelling the words out loud or on paper. Give your child the opportunity to double-check spelling and find mistakes independently. This is a great strategy to use throughout the year. 30
A.Create literature with your child.
B.Help your child to make up better stories.
C.Compare how they are similar and how they are different.

Passage 7
(2025年高二上·山东威海·期末)During your teenage years, your body goes through many changes, and you may or may not like how your body develops. You start forming an image of your body. 31
You can develop either a positive or negative body image, depending on your mindset.
One of the major contributors of a negative body image is peer pressure. Even if you do not think you are being bullied by your group of friends, you may be laughed at casually about your appearance or you may simply notice that they seem more “perfect” than you. This can have a negative impact on your body image. 32 Often, an ideal body type is promoted heavily on social networks. Culture may also have a negative impact on one’s body image. If your culture values a particular body image, then that would make you unhappy if you don’t match it.
A negative body image increases the risk of unhealthy behaviors like extreme dieting, overeating, over exercising, isolation, and risky surgeries. It also lowers life satisfaction and can lead to unhappiness. 33
To have a more positive body image, first accept that we are all unique individuals. Imagine if everyone looked the same, the world would be a boring place. 34 Beauty standards keep changing all the time. What’s more, models and celebrities you see in the media may look “perfect” for the era, but, in fact, much of it is due to makeup, angles and lighting and Photoshop!
35 Avoid commenting on others’ looks, and you will stop criticizing yourself too. If you have peers who constantly comment about your appearance, it might be time to re-evaluate the company you keep.
Remember, your body image is simply YOUR perception (感知) of your body. This means YOU have the power to change this, even if you do not have the ability to change the perception of others.
A.Your body image is influenced by many factors.
B.Another major factor is what is shown in the media.
C.It is simply how you see, think and feel about yourself.
D.More importantly, there is no such thing as a perfect body.
E.In general, the key to a positive body image is self-acceptance.
F.Also, instead of focusing on appearances, learn to value people for who they really are.
G.Over focusing on appearance can stop you from appreciating your other positive qualities.

32.根据上文“One of the major contributors of a negative body image is peer pressure. Even if you do not think you are being bullied by your group of friends, you may be laughed at casually about your appearance or you may simply notice that they seem more “perfect” than you. This can have a negative impact on your body image.(负面身体形象的主要原因之一是同伴压力。即使你认为你没有被你的一群朋友欺负,你可能会随意被嘲笑你的外表,或者你可能只是注意到他们看起来比你更“完美”。这会对你的身体形象产生负面影响)”以及后文“Often, an ideal body type is promoted heavily on social networks.(通常,理想的体型在社交网络上被大力宣传)”可知,后文主要说明了社交网络导致了负面身体形象,B选项中media对应后文social networks。故B选项“另一个主要因素是媒体所展示的内容”符合语境,故选B。

What’s more, models and celebrities you see in the media may look “perfect” for the era, but, in fact, much of it is due to makeup, angles and lighting and Photoshop!(审美标准一直在变化。更重要的是,你在媒体上看到的模特和名人可能看起来“完美”,但事实上,这很大程度上是由于化妆、角度、灯光和PS!)”可知,上文指出每个人看起来一样世界将会变得无聊,后文指出审美标准一直在变化,说明没有完全完美的身体,因为审美标准一直在变化。故D选项“更重要的是,没有完美的身材”符合语境,故选D。

Passage 9
(2025年高二下·湖北·开学考试)Solitude (独处) gets a bad name because it’s often equated with loneliness. Loneliness involves being isolated (孤立的) despite wanting social connections, whereas being alone means taking time for yourself between regular social interactions. 41 . You can also be alone without having feelings of loneliness.
While there are downsides to loneliness, research has found real benefits of doing things alone. Here are several to consider.Improve concentration and memory
When you are working in a group, you might use less effort to memorize information. 42 . Working on things alone can help you focus your attention, which can improve your memory. In one study, researchers found that groups working collaboratively (合作地) to recall information performed worse than individuals recalling things on their own.
43
Spending time alone gives you time to focus on your interests. When you are surrounded by others, you might set your own ideas and passions aside to satisfy the needs of your friends and family. Taking time on your own gives you the opportunity to make creative choices and focus your attention without worrying about what other people are thinking.Boost creativity
Collaborative brainstorming is often seen as one of the best ways to generate new ideas. 44 . While group efforts are often about achieving consensus (共识) and fitting in with the crowd, working alone encourages innovation without added social pressure.Make you more sympathetic
A certain amount of alone time can help you have greater sympathy for the people around you. However, truly spending time alone isn’t always easy, especially with tech transforming alone time. If you are not able to be completely by yourself, cutting back on digital communication for a brief time might be helpful. 45 .
A.Put your interests first
B.Improve your relationships
C.You assume that others in the group will fill in the gaps
D.A little absence might really make the heart grow fonder
E.You can be lonely even when you are in the presence of others
F.A study found teens’ emotion interpretation improved after 5 device-free days
G.However, research shows individuals solve tough problems equally well when working alone
【答案】41.E 42.C 43.A 44.G 45.F
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了独处的好处,如能提高注意力和记忆力、让人优先关注自身兴趣、激发创造力、使人更具同情心等。
41.上文“Loneliness involves being isolated (孤立的) despite wanting social connections, whereas being alone means taking time for yourself between regular social interactions.(孤独是指尽管渴望社交联系却仍处于孤立状态,而独处则意味着在日常社交互动之间给自己留出时间)”对孤独和独处进行了定义。E选项“You can be lonely even when you are in the presence of others.(即使你和别人在一起,你也可能会感到孤独)”与后文“You can also be alone without having feelings of loneliness.(你也可以独自一人而不感到孤独)”构成并列结构,进行一步对孤独和独处两种状态进行举例说明,上下文语意一致。故选E项。
42.上文“When you are working in a group, you might use less effort to memorize information.(当你在一个团队中工作时,你可能会花更少的精力去记忆信息)”指出在小组中工作时,人们可能会减少记忆信息的努力。C选项“You assume that others in the group will fill in the gaps(你会认为小组里的其他人会填补这些空白)”说明人们会认为小组中的其他人会填补这些空缺,解释了在小组中为何会减少记忆信息努力的原因,与上文逻辑紧密。故选C项。
43.根据下文“Spending time alone gives you time to focus on your interests.(独处能让你有时间专注于自己的兴趣爱好)”可知,表明独处能让人有时间专注于自己的兴趣。A选项“Put your interests first(把你的兴趣放在首位)”与下文内容相契合,说明独处能让自己专注于自己的兴趣,是该段落的主题句。故选A项。
44.上文“Collaborative brainstorming is often seen as one of the best ways to generate new ideas.(合作式头脑风暴通常被视为产生新想法的最佳方式之一)”提到合作头脑风暴常被视为产生新想法的最佳方式之一。G选项“However, research shows individuals solve tough problems equally well when working alone(然而,研究表明,个人独自工作时也能同样出色地解决难题)”通过“However”构成转折,指出研究表明个人独自工作时也能同样很好地解决难题,与上文关于合作的观点形成对比,强调了独处的好处,照应小标题“Boost creativity(提高创造力)”。故选G项。
45.上文“If you are not able to be completely by yourself, cutting back on digital communication for a brief time might be helpful.(如果你不能完全独处,暂时减少数字通信可能会有帮助)”提出如果不能完全独处,暂时减少数字通讯可能会有帮助。F选项“A study found teens’ emotion interpretation improved after 5 device free days(一项研究发现,青少年在无电子设备陪伴的五天后,对情绪的理解能力有所提高)”举例说明一项研究发现青少年在无设备的五天后情绪解读能力有所提高,这是减少数字通讯带来积极效果的例子,与上文逻辑一致。故选F项。

Passage 11
Are you ready to unlock endless growth? In a fast-changing world, staying successful requires constant improvement. Lifelong learning is the key to gaining unlimited knowledge. 51
Start your learning journey with books. Becoming a lifelong learner begins with reading on purpose. 52 Approach each book as a journey, not just a task. Dive deep into the ideas, challenge your current views, and expand your knowledge. Try to connect concepts and think about how they relate to your goals, not just finishing the book.
Join a learning community or peer group. 53 By joining a group, you meet people who share interests and struggles with you. This helps with cooperation and support. Joining discussions, workshops, and projects deepens your learning, and getting feedback from peers speeds up your progress. It also helps grow in your career and create networking opportunities.
54 This helps you understand and apply what you’ve learned. Take a few minutes each day to reflect on your learning. Write down key ideas or experiences that stand out. Think about how they relate to your goals. This habit helps organize your thoughts, make connections, challenge old beliefs and improve your understanding.
Make lifelong learning part of your life. Becoming a lifelong learner doesn’t require a big change right away. 55 Instead of scrolling through social media at breakfast, read an article you saved. Listen to a productivity podcast instead of music, or watch a documentary about a business innovator instead of a sitcom. Over time, these small changes will become lasting habits.
A.Think about your life purpose.
B.Write daily learning reflections.
C.Interact with like-minded people.
D.Let’s dive in and discover its secrets.
E.Learning is both personal and shared.
F.Pick topics that interest you or abilities you want to improve.
G.Start with small, simple steps, like being mindful of your time.
【答案】51.D 52.F 53.E 54.B 55.G

Passage 13
How to Do basic first Aid
Basic first aid refers to a temporary form of help given to someone who has been injured or has got sick due to choking, a heart attack, drugs or other medical emergencies. 61 .
Care for the person who has just gone through serious damage, including both physical treatment and emotional support. 62 . Let the person know that help is on its way and that everything will be all right. Also you can ask for their names, if they know what has happened, and then about their interests.
63 . You’d better listen for the sound of air coming in and out, and feel for air using the side of your face. If there are no signs of breathing, place two fingers under the chin (下巴) and gently guide the face pointing upwards to open up their airways.
Perform 30 chest compressions (心肺复苏) and two rescue breaths as part of CPR. 64 . And then press the chest down about 2 inches at a rate of 100 compressions per minute. After 30 compressions, give two rescue breaths, done by opening the airways, closing the nose and fully covering the mouth hole.
Make sure the person is warm as you wait for medical help. Remove some of your own clothing, such as your coat or jacket, and use it as a cover until medical help arrives. However, if the person has a heatstroke (中暑), do not cover him or keep him warm. 65

Passage 14
Medicine is a degree that consists of an endless number of exams, and recently I received my first year results. Waiting for those results was one of the most anxiety-generating experiences.
66 Failure brings judgement from others, a topic of discussion for people and the right for others to say you are not capable. The stress associated with failure is created by others around you, rather than by the event itself.
I have recently been reading The Psychology of Money by Morgan Housel, which clarifies that failure has a strong presence among those who have achieved success. People will always focus on Warren Buffett’s success as an investor. 67
The process of achieving success has often involved setbacks and “failures” along the way. I was rejected by medical schools which I’d spent time and effort applying to and preparing for. And I once received a “pass” grade on an important research paper during my master’s, which put my final grade in a dangerous situation. 68 I also began pursuing my doctoral degree last year.
69 But you should know that with each failure you are closer to success, building further layers to the foundations you started. Behind every successful person are more obstacles and setbacks, but these are not as interesting to focus on or as enviable.
The noise around you, whether it is from coworkers, friends or parents, should not shake your belief in your abilities. 70 Learn what you need and correct your approach until you have success.
A.You are guaranteed a lifetime of success.
B.Failure is your platform to achieve success.
C.I was turned down by countless graduate schemes.
D.You may not be successful the first, second or however many times.
E.Upon reflection I believe that this is partly as a result of failure itself.
F.Despite all of this, I ended up getting my master’s with honors.
G.However, rarely will they see how many times his investments have failed.
【答案】66.E 67.G 68.F 69.D 70.B
【导语】本文是议论文。文章主要讲述失败不可怕,反而是通往成功的平台。
66.根据上文“Waiting for those results was one of the most anxiety-generating experiences.(等待这些结果是最让人焦虑的经历之一。)”和下文“Failure brings judgement from others, a topic of discussion for people and the right for others to say you are not capable.(失败带来了别人的评判,成为人们讨论的话题,也给了别人说你无能的权利。)”可知,上文提到等待结果的过程是很让人焦虑的,原因应该是害怕会有失败的结果,下文分析了失败会带来什么样的结果。选项E“Upon reflection I believe that this is partly as a result of failure itself.(经过反思,我认为这部分是失败本身的结果。)”符合语境,承上启下。故选E。
67.上文提到“failure has a strong presence among those who have achieved success(在那些取得成功的人中间,失败是无处不在的)”,故可推知本段主要在讲那些获得成功的人往往都经历过失败。作者在该段中列举了巴菲特的例子,由此推知,接下来要提及巴菲特也有投资失败的时候。选项G“However, rarely will they see how many times his investments have failed.(然而,他们很少会看到他的投资失败了多少次。)”符合语境,选项中的they指代上文中的People。故选G。
68.上文“I was rejected by medical schools which I’d spent time and effort applying to and preparing for. And I once received a “pass” grade on an important research paper during my master’s, which put my final grade in a dangerous situation.(我花了很多时间和精力申请和准备的医学院拒绝了我。在我读硕士期间,我曾经有一篇重要的研究论文得了“及格”的分数,这让我的期末成绩陷入了危险的境地。)”提到作者曾经的失败经历,下文“I also began pursuing my doctoral degree last year.(去年我也开始攻读博士学位。)”提到他还开始攻读博士学位,由“also”可知空处为过渡句,表示作者虽然经历种种失败,但是后来还是在学业上取得了成功。选项F“Despite all of this, I ended up getting my master’s with honors.(尽管如此,我还是以优异的成绩获得了硕士学位。)”承上启下,符合语境。故选F。
69.空后说“But you should know that with each failure you are closer to success, building further layers to the foundations you started.(但你应该知道,每一次失败都让你离成功更近了一步,在你开始的基础上建立起更深的层次。)”,说明人会可能会失败很多次,D选项“You may not be successful the first, second or however many times.(你可能第一次、第二次或很多次都不会成功。)”说明你可能会失败多次,选项中的“not be successful”对应下文中的“failure”,因此引起下文,符合语境。故选D。
70.根据下文“Learn what you need and correct your approach until you have success.(了解你需要什么,并纠正你的方法,直到你成功。)”可知,这是在说学会从失败中吸取教训,不断改正自己的方法以获取成功。故B项“Failure is your platform to achieve success.(失败是你取得成功的平台。)”说明了要从失败中吸取教训,因此引起下文,符合文意。故选B。
Passage 15
With our already busy lives, finding time to exercise can feel like one more thing on our ‘to do’ list. 71 The answer is ‘yes’, but it’s easier than you think-no matter who you are, or when you like to work out.
72 Many of us have more free time in the morning compared to later in the day, and it may therefore be easier for us to stick to a morning workout routine. A 2010 study conducted by the Scandinavian Journal of Medicine and Science in Sports found that participants who exercised in the morning, increased their physical activity throughout the day, were less distracted by food, and slept better. Exercising on an empty stomach before breakfast could burn more fat and increase metabolism (新陈代谢) too.
So, good news for early birds, but what if you’re not a morning person? Working out in the afternoon or evening also has benefits, just different ones. 73 Also, in the afternoon and evening, your reaction time is quickest, and your heart rate and blood pressure are lowest, which reduce your chance of injury while improving performance.
But does any of this change depend on whether you’re a man or a woman? Our bodies are different, after all, so the best time to exercise may be different. A 2022 study from Skidmore College, New York, looked at exactly this question and the results showed that there are some differences. 74 Exercise in the morning. Want to improve your heart health and you’re a man? Evening is better for you. But, ultimately, the study found that there are clear benefits for both sexes to exercising at either time of day.
So what time is best? 75 .
A.So does your amount of exercise count?
B.Want to lose weight and be more charming?
C.There are clear benefits to exercising in the morning.
D.It seems the answer is: whatever time is best for you!
E.Want to reduce your blood pressure and you’re a woman?
F.For example, your body’s ability to perform peaks in the afternoon.
G.So could exercising at certain times help maximize our fitness goals?
【答案】71.G 72.C 73.F 74.E 75.D
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一天中的最佳锻炼时间
71.上文“With our already busy lives, finding time to exercise can feel like one more thing on our ‘to do’ list. (在我们已经忙碌的生活中,找时间锻炼就像是我们“要做”的清单上的另一件事。)”提到了锻炼的问题,下文“The answer is ‘yes’, but it’s easier than you think - no matter who you are, or when you like to work out. (答案是肯定的,但这比你想象的要容易——不管你是谁,也不管你喜欢什么时候锻炼。)”是对有关锻炼问题的一个回答,选项G中exercising是关键词与上文呼应,所以G选项“那么,在特定的时间锻炼能帮助我们达到最大的健身目标吗?”能承上启下,符合语境。故选G项。
72.下文“A 2010 study conducted by the Scandinavian Journal of Medicine and Science in Sports found that participants who exercised in the morning, increased their physical activity throughout the day, were less distracted by food, and slept better. Exercising on an empty stomach before breakfast could burn more fat and increase metabolism (新陈代谢)too. (《斯堪的纳维亚体育医学与科学杂志》在2010年进行的一项研究发现,早上锻炼的参与者,在一天中增加体力活动,更少被食物分散注意力,睡眠更好。早餐前空腹锻炼可以燃烧更多的脂肪,促进新陈代谢。)”提到了晨练的好处,选项C中exercising in the morning是关键词,与下文呼应,所以C选项“早上锻炼有明显的好处。”能概括下文内容。故选C项。
73.上文“Working out in the afternoon or evening also has benefits, just different ones. (在下午或晚上锻炼也有好处,只是好处不同。)”提到了下午或晚上锻炼,选项F中in the afternoon是关键词,与上文呼应,所以F选项“例如,你身体的工作能力在下午达到顶峰。”能承接上文。故选F项。
74.下文“Exercise in the morning. (早晨锻炼。)”提到了早晨锻炼,继续说“Want to improve your heart health and you’re a man? Evening is better for you. (想要改善你的心脏健康,而你是一个男人?晚上对你比较合适。)”提到了晚上锻炼,此处上下文是表对比的关系,所以E选项“如果你是女性,想要降低血压?”能与下文构成对比关系。故选E项。
75.上文“So what time is best? (那么什么时间最合适呢?)”是询问时间,所以D选项“答案似乎是:任何时间对你来说都是最好的!”是对上文的回答,符合语境。故选D项。
Passage 16
Mental health is a critical aspect of overall well-being, yet it is often ignored in our fast- paced society. 76 A well-cared and healthy mind leads to improved emotions, better relationships, and a more positive outlook on life.
77 When we are stressed or upset, it is our mind’s way of reacting to negative stimuli(刺激). Good mental health allows us to cope with these emotions in a positive manner. In addition, when our minds are not clouded by negative thoughts or emotions it is easier to think clearly. 78
Studies have shown that a person with good mental health lives longer and has a higher quality of life. The effects of positive mental health on the body are plenty, including reducing the risk of diseases and improving overall physical well-being.
Our mental state has a significant impact on relationships. People with good mental health are more likely to be kind and understanding. 79 This may further guarantee them with a stable emotional condition.

A.Turn to friends or families.
B.They strongly connect with others.

Passage 17
(2025年高二上·山西·阶段练习)Few people get excited about meetings. Meetings often become long-winded affairs where many people are not really contributing, and, sometimes, that happens because the people have no real reason to be there.

Passage 18
(2025年高二下·浙江·开学考试)The shape of Australia’s school system is undergoing a significant change. Enrollments(入学人数) in independent schools are growing, while fewer students are going to public schools. Why are more families choosing an independent school, when they could send their children to a free public option? 86
One reason may be policy changes that allowed the establishment of new independent schools in Australia. In the 1990s, the Howard government changed a policy to allow funding for the establishment of new schools, even in areas that already had adequate capacity in existing schools.
New independent schools tend to charge lower fees than established elite schools. 87 According to Independent Schools Australia, the largest growth in enrollments is in schools charging fees of around A$5,0 00 per year.
88 New South Wales Education Minister Prue Car has spoken about this issue for her own son, who attends an independent primary school: “We were in one of the suburbs where the government didn’t build a school.”
Compared to other countries, Australian schools have a high level of “socioeconomic segregation(社会经济隔离)”. 89 The increase in students going to fee-paying private schools means we are seeing increasing segregation in our school system.
Public schools continue to educate the majority of children in remote locations. 90 Independent schools enroll increasing proportions of students from the most advantaged socioeconomic backgrounds.
A.What account for this shift?
B.How should we deal with this shift?
C.They are those from disadvantaged backgrounds.
D.That makes them more accessible to middle-income families.
E.Parents will naturally choose what they perceive to be the best school.
F.This means different types of schools have students from different backgrounds.
G.In some cases, state governments are slow to build new public schools in suburbs.
【答案】86.A 87.D 88.G 89.F 90.C
【导语】本文为一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了澳大利亚独立学校的入学人数超过公立学校的入学人数的原因。
86.根据空前“Why are more families choosing an independent school, when they could send their children to a free public option?(为什么更多的家庭选择独立学校,而不是免费的公立学校呢?)”和空后“One reason may be policy changes that allowed the establishment of new independent schools in Australia.(一个原因可能是政策的变化,允许在澳大利亚建立新的独立学校。)”可知,空前提出问题,为什么更多的家庭选择独立学校,空后提出了其中一个可能的原因,故A项“什么导致了这种转变呢?”符合,在此处承上启下,A项中的that shift指代前文的“更多的家庭选择独立学校”,引出后文的具体原因,故选A项。
87.根据空前“New independent schools tend to charge lower fees than established elite schools.(新的独立学校往往比老牌精英学校的收费更低。)”可知,独立学校比老牌精英学校收费低,D项“这使得中收入家庭更能支付。”是空前的顺义承接,因此,中收入家庭更能支付,从而导致更多的家庭选择独立学校,D项中的“them”指代空前的“New independent schools”,故选D项。
88.根据空后“New South Wales Education Minister Prue Car has spoken about this issue for her own son, who attends an independent primary school: “We were in one of the suburbs where the government didn’t build a school.”(新南威尔士州教育部长Prue Car曾谈到她儿子的这个问题,他就读于一所独立的小学:“我们住在一个政府没有建学校的郊区。”)”可知,本段主要介绍了教育部长的儿子就读独立学校的原因是他们住在一个政府没有建学校的郊区,故G项“在某些情况下,州政府在郊区建设新公立学校的速度较慢。”符合,总结后文内容,说明越来越多的家庭选择独立学校的另一个原因是因为州政府在郊区建设新公立学校的速度较慢,故选G项。
89.根据空前“Compared to other countries, Australian schools have a high level of “socioeconomic segregation(社会经济隔离)”.(与其他国家相比,澳大利亚的学校具有较高的社会经济隔离水平。)”和空后“The increase in students going to fee-paying private schools means we are seeing increasing segregation in our school system.(去付费私立学校的学生人数的增加意味着我们的学校系统中的隔离现象越来越严重。)”可知,空前提到了澳大利亚学校社会经济隔离水平较高,空后提出了去私立学校的人数增加导致这种隔离现象越来越严重,故F项“这意味着不同学校的学生来自不同的背景。”符合,澳大利亚学校具有较高的社会经济隔离水平,就意味着不同学校的学生来自不同的背景,去私立学校的人更多也就意味着这种隔离现象越来越严重,故选F项。
90.根据空前“Public schools continue to educate the majority of children in remote locations.(公立学校继续教育偏远地区的大多数儿童。)”可知,空前提到公立学校教育的是偏远地区的儿童,故C项“他们都是背景不太优越的孩子。”符合,C项中的“They”指代前文的“the majority of children in remote locations”,公立学校教育的是偏远地区的儿童,他们都是背景不太优越的孩子,故选C项。
