Julie Scelfo, founder of Mothers Against Media Addiction, argues that smartphones have replaced vital in-person experiences essential for healthy social, emotional, and academic development. 16 A school in Minnesota carried out a phone ban in recent years. 17 Students reported feeling more connected and less anxious without constant access to their devices. Similarly, Wis. high school in Milwaukee collects phones daily, leading to improved focus and cooperation among students. 18 A decade ago, Graham Dugoni founded Yondr, which produces phone lockers designed to keep students off devices during school hours. They lock the phones until the end of the day when students tap them against a magnet to unlock. Dugoni reports that over 2 million students in America now use these lockers. This method has proved to be effective. The evidence lies in increased library usage and enhanced socialization. Schools carrying out these measures aim to create a more focused environment where students can grow socially and academically, free from the interruptions of constant connectivity. 19 Some schools lack resources. Some students care for sisters or brothers after school and need to contact parents. Students whose first language is not English can benefit from using a translation app during class. Due to the dependence on smartphones, students will eventually need to learn how to have a phone without constantly checking social media. 20 Learning from a young age that there’s a time and place to use our technology would benefit them in the long run. A．Some schools are taking it a step further. B．They need to learn a little bit more self-control. C．It just got to be really tiring to deal with phones. D．Some schools are also turning to lockers for help. E．However, enforcing phone bans can be challenging. F．It resulted in increased student engagement and social interaction. G．In response to these concerns, many schools adopt innovative solutions. （四） （2025·福建厦门·二模） As writers, we tend to be hard on ourselves. It’s easy to overlook small but significant steps toward your goals if you’re focused on comparing yourself to others. Instead, what if you change your mindset to take into account the progress that is happening every day? 16 It is not just about word count or a finished manuscript (手稿). Here are some mindset shifts and actionable ideas. Redefine productive writing time. Writing involves more than time spent with a keyboard or a pen. Stepping away from your work can actually improve the quality of your writing. 17 Instead, treat that "off" time as just as valuable as sitting at your desk writing. You need to recharge to be creative and productive. 18 In order to set realistic goals, it’s essential to know how long things actually take you to accomplish. That’s why timing your writing sessions is important. Once you understand your personal output rate of words per hour, you can use timing data to set achievable goals and avoid unrealistic expectations. Rework your work space. Where you write has a big impact on how you feel about your work. 19 If that’s not an option, you can rearrange your current work area. Clear the mess, move your desk, get a new lamp—play around and see what feels right. A little novelty can break you out of a dull routine and change your mindset. Chart your progress. 20 For example, if you have a word count goal each day, make a calendar and give yourself a big check each time you meet it. Seeing all those checks can help remind you that you have a lot to be proud of! A．Breaks shouldn’t cause guilt. B．Assess your time management. C．List realistic and actionable goals. D．Sometimes a change of scenery can help. E．It’s important to acknowledge all aspects of the writing process. F．Keeping visual track of your progress can remind you of how far you’ve come. G．Tapping into your own personal productivity style will make all the difference. （五） （2025·福建仙游·二模） Flower planting is a delightful hobby that allows you to enjoy the beauty of nature right at home. Here are some useful tips to help you become a successful gardener. 36 Different flowers thrive in different weather conditions. For example, sunflowers love sunny and warm environments, while pansies can tolerate cooler temperatures. So, it’s crucial to choose the right seeds according to your local climate and the season. Well -drained soil is essential for most flowers. 37 A good soil base provides the necessary nutrients for your flowers to grow strong. You can add compost or organic matter to improve soil fertility and texture. Over -watering or under -watering can both be harmful. Generally, check the soil moisture by inserting your finger about an inch deep. 38 However, be careful not to let water accumulate in the pot, as this can lead to root rot. 39 Most flowering plants need sufficient sunlight to bloom. Place your potted flowers near a window where they can receive at least 6 -8 hours of sunlight a day. If you’re growing them outdoors, choose a location with proper sun exposure. Finally, use a balanced fertilizer during the growing season to provide essential nutrients like nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. 40 A．The choice of seeds is the first step. B．Soil is another important factor to consider. C．Watering is a key point that requires your attention. D．If it feels dry, it’s time to water. E．By following these simple tips, you’ll be on your way to creating a beautiful and vibrant flower garden. F．Don’t forget to fertilize regularly. G．Light plays a vital role in the growth of flowers. （六） （2025·福建漳州·二模） I can’t recall exactly how the concept of “Attic (阁楼) notebooks” came to me, but it paid off. I keep using this method because it always surprises me and has proven its worth time and again. 36 You write in it regularly in short sessions. The rule is that you don’t look back at what you’ve written until the notebook is full. You just keep moving forward and never look back. It is very suitable to finish writing a notebook in about a month. Once it’s full, you close it, write the date on it, and put it aside for a long period of no less than a month. When you finally read it, it’s like stumbling (蹒跚) upon a strange notebook in an attic, filled with all kinds of stories, poems, and ideas. Fun, non-goal-directed writing exercises can help you get into a state of flow. It is really good for your creativity and your work. 37 Even just a few minutes of writing each day can have a significant impact. My novel is very different from my notebook writing. A novel has high expectations and fixed elements like plots, mood, and themes. 38 Anything can happen, and it usually does. To start this writing exercise, you can use writing prompts (提示). I made a “Promptember” list to make it easier. Just pick the daily prompt and start writing. Also, don’t over-plan. Keep the prompt in mind loosely and start writing. 39 You can decide to write a certain number of pages or for a specific amount of minutes, like 3 pages or 15 minutes. Moreover, avoid self-criticism. Since you can’t read what you wrote until later, you won’t feel discouraged. This helps silence that inner voice of criticism. Finally, pick the right notebook. 40 I hope you’ll give this a shot. Regular, fun writing exercises can really unlock your creative potential and boost your writing skills. A．The more you write, the better you become. B．Long-time daily writing is highly necessary. C．Setting a time or page limit is also important. D．But in my notebook, there are no such restrictions. E．An attic notebook is a continuous writing exercise. F．Thin notebooks are better as they’re easier to handle. G．I recommend thick notebooks for a 2-year writing period. （七） （2025·福建泉州·二模） I always admired my grandmother Jenny’ s gardening skills. But it wasn’t until a sunny afternoon in her backyard that I became interested in gardening myself. We were there to grow tomatoes. She handed me a tiny young tomato plant. 16 It’s a family tradition! Over time, the tiny seedling (幼苗) had grown into a large tomato plant with many juicy red tomatoes. Harvesting those tomatoes with my grandma was a joy I won’t forget. We spent hours in her kitchen making delicious homemade spaghetti sauce. 17 My time in the garden with my grandma showed me that gardening is more than just a hobby. It’s a way to connect with our roots. The garden became something we both loved, bringing us closer together and creating a strong bond. 18 I watered the plants too much and forgot to take care of the soil. It was a learning experience. But I didn’t give up. Instead, I saw these moments as opportunities to learn. I read books, went to workshops, and asked experienced gardeners in my community for advice. Yet, Mother Nature can be unpredictable. from unbearable heat to unexpected frosts. I lost some of my favorite plants due to extreme weathers. 19 I used drought-tolerant plants and protective coverings like shade cloths and frost blankets to help my strong plants grow. Gardening is a lifelong journey of learning. 20 It’s like finding a hidden library, where each plant and plot offers something new to discover. The more time I spend in the garden, the more I realise that the soil is not just a place for plants to grow — it’s also ideal ground for my personal growth. A．Gardening in cold weather will be rather tough. B．Just the smell alone brought back so many memories. C．However, my first attempts at gardening didn’t go very well. D．Then she shared stories of her own grandmother doing the same. E．And grandma’s gardening journey connects with me emotionally. F．It’s always changing and requires us to stay open to new knowledge. G．But I started planting with the climate in mind instead of getting upset. （八） （2024·福建福州·二模） The Debate on Drinking Coffee on an Empty Stomach There’s a popular belief that drinking coffee on an empty stomach can damage the stomach lining (胃粘膜). This article investigates the validity of these claims and explores the broader influences for gut (肠道) health. 16 But some worry this habit could harm their stomachs. Claims on social media suggest that such a practice could lead to various illnesses. However, Kim Barrett, a physiology professor, assures that the stomach is strong, equipped with protective mechanisms like a thick liquid layer that protects it from potential irritants such as coffee. While substances like alcohol are known to alter the stomach’s defenses, research, a 2013 study of over 8,000 participants living in Japan, shows no substantial link between coffee consumption and the development of ulcers (溃疡). 17 The idea that coffee induces stomach acid production is well-established, which could theoretically lead to heartburn, especially if consumed on an empty stomach. 18 A 2014 review found no connection between coffee and heartburn, whereas a 2020 study indicated a possible increase in heartburn symptoms among habitual coffee drinkers. If you experience discomfort after drinking coffee, consider cutting down the consumption. 19 That means you drink less coffee in a way. For those who tolerate it well, there’s no need to alter your routine. While the debate on the impact of drinking coffee on an empty stomach continues, the evidence leans more towards its safety rather than harm. Monitoring personal symptoms and making small adjustments can help individuals enjoy coffee without discomfort. 20 And what works for one person might not for another. A．Adding some milk can also help. B．However, studies offer mixed results. C．Remember, individual responses can vary. D．Nonetheless, coffee does have an effect on the gut. E．There’s more evidence for coffee’s benefits than harms. F．Many people start their day with a cup before eating anything. G．It suggests that coffee doesn’t harm the stomach lining directly. （九） （2024·福建莆田·二模） Almost everyone has felt something similar: wearing clothes we don’t like causes a general feeling of unease and discontent. This proves the fact that clothes have more than functions of protection or warmth in life. 36 As former fashion editor Caryn Franklin writes, “Fashion offers a dialogue rich with social and political meaning for those who want to unlock the language of clothes.” 37 We like or dislike certain colors because of the attributes or moods we associate with them. Those associations might be cultural. White, for example, is commonly associated with purity and innocence in Western cultures, whereas in China, people associate it with death and mourning. 38 The book The Little Prince offers a fictional example of the latter: The fox will love the sight of wheat, which had been meaningless to him, just because it will remind him of the color of the boy’s hair. As a result, associations can differ widely from person to person and culture to culture. Others might read into our outfits something different than we intend. 39 But as long as we are not wearing our clothes specifically to communicate certain qualities to others in a specific context (such as professionalism at a job interview), what others think of our clothes should be less important than what we think of them and why we choose to wear them. 40 A．Take colors, for instance. B．We ought to dress to benefit ourselves, not others. C．They also communicate something about the wearer. D．Thus, they will misunderstand our values and identity. E．Clothes have the psychological power to elevate our sense of self. F．Or we can form associations based on our personal experience and values. G．We might also associate certain fabrics with different qualities of character. 试卷第1页，共3页 试卷第1页，共3页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 专题04 阅读七选五（解析版） （一） （2025·福建龙岩·二模） People naturally desire a native-like accent when learning English.

Here are some useful tips to help you become a successful gardener. 36 Different flowers thrive in different weather conditions. For example, sunflowers love sunny and warm environments, while pansies can tolerate cooler temperatures. So, it’s crucial to choose the right seeds according to your local climate and the season. Well -drained soil is essential for most flowers. 37 A good soil base provides the necessary nutrients for your flowers to grow strong. You can add compost or organic matter to improve soil fertility and texture. Over -watering or under -watering can both be harmful. Generally, check the soil moisture by inserting your finger about an inch deep. 38 However, be careful not to let water accumulate in the pot, as this can lead to root rot. 39 Most flowering plants need sufficient sunlight to bloom. Place your potted flowers near a window where they can receive at least 6 -8 hours of sunlight a day. If you’re growing them outdoors, choose a location with proper sun exposure. Finally, use a balanced fertilizer during the growing season to provide essential nutrients like nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. 40 A．The choice of seeds is the first step. B．Soil is another important factor to consider. C．Watering is a key point that requires your attention. D．If it feels dry, it’s time to water. E．By following these simple tips, you’ll be on your way to creating a beautiful and vibrant flower garden. F．Don’t forget to fertilize regularly. G．Light plays a vital role in the growth of flowers. 【答案】36．A 37．B 38．D 39．G 40．E 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了种花的一些有用的小贴士，包括选择种子、土壤、浇水、光照和施肥等方面。 36．根据下文“Different flowers thrive in different weather conditions.

I keep using this method because it always surprises me and has proven its worth time and again. 36 You write in it regularly in short sessions. The rule is that you don’t look back at what you’ve written until the notebook is full. You just keep moving forward and never look back. It is very suitable to finish writing a notebook in about a month. Once it’s full, you close it, write the date on it, and put it aside for a long period of no less than a month. When you finally read it, it’s like stumbling (蹒跚) upon a strange notebook in an attic, filled with all kinds of stories, poems, and ideas. Fun, non-goal-directed writing exercises can help you get into a state of flow. It is really good for your creativity and your work. 37 Even just a few minutes of writing each day can have a significant impact. My novel is very different from my notebook writing. A novel has high expectations and fixed elements like plots, mood, and themes. 38 Anything can happen, and it usually does. To start this writing exercise, you can use writing prompts (提示). I made a “Promptember” list to make it easier. Just pick the daily prompt and start writing. Also, don’t over-plan. Keep the prompt in mind loosely and start writing. 39 You can decide to write a certain number of pages or for a specific amount of minutes, like 3 pages or 15 minutes. Moreover, avoid self-criticism. Since you can’t read what you wrote until later, you won’t feel discouraged. This helps silence that inner voice of criticism. Finally, pick the right notebook. 40 I hope you’ll give this a shot. Regular, fun writing exercises can really unlock your creative potential and boost your writing skills. A．The more you write, the better you become. B．Long-time daily writing is highly necessary. C．Setting a time or page limit is also important. D．But in my notebook, there are no such restrictions. E．An attic notebook is a continuous writing exercise. F．Thin notebooks are better as they’re easier to handle. G．I recommend thick notebooks for a 2-year writing period. 【答案】36．E 37．A 38．D 39．C 40．F 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了“阁楼笔记本”写作方法。 36．下文“You write in it regularly in short sessions. The rule is that you don’t look back at what you’ve written until the notebook is full.(你定期短时间地在里面写作。规则是在笔记本写满之前，你不要回头看你写了什么)”具体说明了“阁楼笔记本”的写作方式。E选项“An attic notebook is a continuous writing exercise.(阁楼笔记本是一种持续的写作练习)”引出了“阁楼笔记本”这一写作练习方式，与下文对其写作方式的具体描述相呼应，句中“continuous writing exercise”与下文“write in it regularly”相照应。故选E项。 37．上文“Fun, non-goal-directed writing exercises can help you get into a state of flow. It is really good for your creativity and your work.(有趣的、无目标的写作练习可以帮助你进入心流状态。这对你的创造力和工作真的很有好处)”强调了写作练习的好处，A选项“The more you write, the better you become.(你写得越多，就会变得越好)”进一步说明持续写作能带来积极变化，与上文论述的写作的益处相契合。故选A项。 38．上文“A novel has high expectations and fixed elements like plots, mood, and themes.(小说有很高的期望和固定的元素，如情节、氛围和主题)”说明了小说写作的限制，D选项“But in my notebook, there are no such restrictions.(但在我的笔记本里，没有这样的限制)”通过“but”与上文形成转折，指出“阁楼笔记本”写作没有小说写作那样的限制，引出下文“Anything can happen, and it usually does.(任何事情都有可能发生，而且通常都是这样)”，符合上下文逻辑。故选D项。 39．下文“You can decide to write a certain number of pages or for a specific amount of minutes, like 3 pages or 15 minutes.(你可以决定写一定数量的页数或特定的时间，比如3页或15分钟)”提到了写作的页数或时间限制，C选项“Setting a time or page limit is also important.(设置时间或页数限制也很重要)”引出了设置写作限制这一话题，与下文内容相呼应。故选C项。 40．上文“Finally, pick the right notebook.(最后，选择合适的笔记本)”提出要选合适的笔记本，F选项“Thin notebooks are better as they’re easier to handle.(薄笔记本更好，因为它们更容易处理)”给出了选择薄笔记本的建议，符合选择合适笔记本这一话题。故选F项。 （七） （2025·福建泉州·二模） I always admired my grandmother Jenny’ s gardening skills. But it wasn’t until a sunny afternoon in her backyard that I became interested in gardening myself. We were there to grow tomatoes. She handed me a tiny young tomato plant. 16 It’s a family tradition! Over time, the tiny seedling (幼苗) had grown into a large tomato plant with many juicy red tomatoes. Harvesting those tomatoes with my grandma was a joy I won’t forget. We spent hours in her kitchen making delicious homemade spaghetti sauce. 17 My time in the garden with my grandma showed me that gardening is more than just a hobby. It’s a way to connect with our roots. The garden became something we both loved, bringing us closer together and creating a strong bond. 18 I watered the plants too much and forgot to take care of the soil. It was a learning experience. But I didn’t give up. Instead, I saw these moments as opportunities to learn. I read books, went to workshops, and asked experienced gardeners in my community for advice. Yet, Mother Nature can be unpredictable. from unbearable heat to unexpected frosts. I lost some of my favorite plants due to extreme weathers. 19 I used drought-tolerant plants and protective coverings like shade cloths and frost blankets to help my strong plants grow. Gardening is a lifelong journey of learning. 20 It’s like finding a hidden library, where each plant and plot offers something new to discover. The more time I spend in the garden, the more I realise that the soil is not just a place for plants to grow — it’s also ideal ground for my personal growth. A．Gardening in cold weather will be rather tough. B．Just the smell alone brought back so many memories. C．However, my first attempts at gardening didn’t go very well. D．Then she shared stories of her own grandmother doing the same. E．And grandma’s gardening journey connects with me emotionally. F．It’s always changing and requires us to stay open to new knowledge. G．But I started planting with the climate in mind instead of getting upset. 【答案】16．D 17．B 18．C 19．G 20．F 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者从事园艺并且喜欢上园艺的经历。 16．根据上文“I always admired my grandmother Jenny’ s gardening skills.

She handed me a tiny young tomato plant.(我一直很钦佩我祖母珍妮的园艺技术。但直到一个阳光明媚的下午，在她家后院，我才对园艺产生了兴趣。我们在那里种西红柿。她递给我一株小小的番茄苗)”以及后文“It’s a family tradition!(这是一个家族传统！)”可知，上文提到祖母给了作者番茄苗，推测本句说明接下来祖母要分享这件事是一种传统的原因。故D选项“然后她分享了自己祖母做同样事情的故事”符合语境，故选D。 17．根据上文“Over time, the tiny seedling (幼苗) had grown into a large tomato plant with many juicy red tomatoes. Harvesting those tomatoes with my grandma was a joy I won’t forget. We spent hours in her kitchen making delicious homemade spaghetti sauce.(随着时间的推移，小小的幼苗长成了一株大番茄，长出了许多多汁的红色番茄。和奶奶一起收获西红柿是我永远不会忘记的快乐。我们在她的厨房里花了几个小时自制美味的意大利面酱)”可知，上文提到制作美味的意大利面酱，本句承接上文，说明美味的意大利面酱所带来的感受。故B选项“光是这香味就勾起了很多回忆”符合语境，故选B。 18．根据后文“I watered the plants too much and forgot to take care of the soil.

I lost some of my favorite plants due to extreme weathers.(然而，大自然母亲是不可预测的。从难以忍受的高温到意想不到的霜冻。由于极端天气，我失去了一些我最喜欢的植物)”以及后文“I used drought-tolerant plants and protective coverings like shade cloths and frost blankets to help my strong plants grow.(我使用了耐旱植物和保护性覆盖物，如遮阳布和防冻毯，以帮助我的强壮植物生长)”可知，上文提到因为极端天气作者失去了一些最喜欢的植物，后文则说明作者使用了保持措施，说明作者开始考虑到天气因素，故G选项“但我开始种植时考虑到了气候，而不是心烦意乱”符合语境，故选G。 20．根据上文“Gardening is a lifelong journey of learning.(园艺是一生的学习之旅)”以及后文“It’s like finding a hidden library, where each plant and plot offers something new to discover.(这就像找到一个隐藏的图书馆，在那里，每一棵植物和每一片土地都提供了新的发现)”可知，上文提到园艺是一生的学习之旅，且比喻成图书馆，说明园艺需要不断学习、不断发现的特点，故F选项“它总是在变化，需要我们对新知识保持开放的心态”符合语境，故选F。 （八） （2024·福建福州·二模） The Debate on Drinking Coffee on an Empty Stomach There’s a popular belief that drinking coffee on an empty stomach can damage the stomach lining (胃粘膜). This article investigates the validity of these claims and explores the broader influences for gut (肠道) health. 16 But some worry this habit could harm their stomachs. Claims on social media suggest that such a practice could lead to various illnesses. However, Kim Barrett, a physiology professor, assures that the stomach is strong, equipped with protective mechanisms like a thick liquid layer that protects it from potential irritants such as coffee. While substances like alcohol are known to alter the stomach’s defenses, research, a 2013 study of over 8,000 participants living in Japan, shows no substantial link between coffee consumption and the development of ulcers (溃疡). 17 The idea that coffee induces stomach acid production is well-established, which could theoretically lead to heartburn, especially if consumed on an empty stomach. 18 A 2014 review found no connection between coffee and heartburn, whereas a 2020 study indicated a possible increase in heartburn symptoms among habitual coffee drinkers. If you experience discomfort after drinking coffee, consider cutting down the consumption. 19 That means you drink less coffee in a way. For those who tolerate it well, there’s no need to alter your routine. While the debate on the impact of drinking coffee on an empty stomach continues, the evidence leans more towards its safety rather than harm. Monitoring personal symptoms and making small adjustments can help individuals enjoy coffee without discomfort. 20 And what works for one person might not for another. A．Adding some milk can also help. B．However, studies offer mixed results. C．Remember, individual responses can vary. D．Nonetheless, coffee does have an effect on the gut. E．There’s more evidence for coffee’s benefits than harms. F．Many people start their day with a cup before eating anything. G．It suggests that coffee doesn’t harm the stomach lining directly. 【答案】16．F 17．G 18．B 19．A 20．C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。本文探讨了空腹喝咖啡对胃粘膜有害说法的有效性，并探索了其对肠道健康的更广泛影响。 16．根据空后“But some worry this habit could harm their stomachs. (但有些人担心这种习惯可能会损害他们的胃。)”和“coffee ”可知，空处应是提及喝咖啡的习惯。F项“Many people start their day with a cup before eating anything. (许多人在吃饭前都会喝上一杯咖啡来开始新的一天。)”符合语境。故选F。 17．根据空前“While substances like alcohol are known to alter the stomach’s defenses, research, a 2013 study of over 8,000 participants living in Japan, shows no substantial link between coffee consumption and the development of ulcers (溃疡). (虽然人们知道酒精等物质会改变胃的防御能力，但2013年对8,000多名日本居民进行的一项研究表明，饮用咖啡与溃疡形成之间没有实质性联系。)”可知，前面提到咖啡和溃疡没有联系，不会直接导致胃粘膜损害。G项“It suggests that coffee doesn’t harm the stomach lining directly. (这表明咖啡不会直接损害胃粘膜。)”符合语境。故选G。 18．上文“The idea that coffee induces stomach acid production is well-established, which could theoretically lead to heartburn, especially if consumed on an empty stomach. (咖啡会引起胃酸分泌的观点已得到充分证实，理论上来说，这可能会导致胃灼热，尤其是在空腹时饮用。)”提到从理论方面咖啡和胃灼热的关系，下文“A 2014 review found no connection between coffee and heartburn, whereas a 2020 study indicated a possible increase in heartburn symptoms among habitual coffee drinkers. (2014的一项综述发现，咖啡和胃灼热之间没有联系，而2020年的一项研究表明，习惯喝咖啡的人胃灼热症状可能会增加。)”提到了一些这方面的不同研究，B 项“However, studies offer mixed results. (然而，研究提供了不同的结果。)”符合语境。故选B。 19．根据空后“That means you drink less coffee in a way. (从某种程度上来说，这意味着你喝的咖啡少了。)”可知，建议减少咖啡加入其它的东西。A 项“Adding some milk can also help. (添加一些牛奶也有帮助。)”符合语境。故选A。 20．根据空后“And what works for one person might not for another. (对一个人有用的方法可能对另一个人无效。)”可知，前面说的反应不同，因为对于一个人有用的方法可能对另一人没有用。C 项“Remember, individual responses can vary. (记住，每个人的反应都是不同的。)”符合语境。故选C。 （九） （2024·福建莆田·二模） Almost everyone has felt something similar: wearing clothes we don’t like causes a general feeling of unease and discontent. This proves the fact that clothes have more than functions of protection or warmth in life. 36 As former fashion editor Caryn Franklin writes, “Fashion offers a dialogue rich with social and political meaning for those who want to unlock the language of clothes.” 37 We like or dislike certain colors because of the attributes or moods we associate with them. Those associations might be cultural. White, for example, is commonly associated with purity and innocence in Western cultures, whereas in China, people associate it with death and mourning. 38 The book The Little Prince offers a fictional example of the latter: The fox will love the sight of wheat, which had been meaningless to him, just because it will remind him of the color of the boy’s hair. As a result, associations can differ widely from person to person and culture to culture. Others might read into our outfits something different than we intend. 39 But as long as we are not wearing our clothes specifically to communicate certain qualities to others in a specific context (such as professionalism at a job interview), what others think of our clothes should be less important than what we think of them and why we choose to wear them. 40 A．Take colors, for instance. B．We ought to dress to benefit ourselves, not others. C．They also communicate something about the wearer. D．Thus, they will misunderstand our values and identity. E．Clothes have the psychological power to elevate our sense of self. F．Or we can form associations based on our personal experience and values. G．We might also associate certain fabrics with different qualities of character. 【答案】36．C 37．A 38．F 39．D 40．B 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了衣服不仅仅是保护或保暖的工具，它们还传达着穿着者的一些信息。例如，颜色与某种属性或情绪联系在一起是受到文化以及个人经历和价值观影响。 36． 前文“Almost everyone has felt something similar: wearing clothes we don’t like causes a general feeling of unease and discontent. This proves the fact that clothes have more than functions of protection or warmth in life. (几乎每个人都有类似的感受：穿自己不喜欢的衣服会让人感到不安和不满。这证明了这样一个事实：衣服在生活中不仅仅具有保护或保暖的功能)”指出衣服的功能不只是保护或保暖，因此C项“They also communicate something about the wearer. (它们还传达了关于穿戴者的一些信息)”符合语境，指出衣服还能传达信息，是对前文的递进，其中的They指代前文的clothes。故选C。 37． 后文“We like or dislike certain colors because of the attributes or moods we associate with them. (我们喜欢或不喜欢某些颜色，是因为我们把它们与属性或情绪联系在一起)”提到衣服颜色的问题，因此A项“Take colors, for instance. (以颜色为例)”符合语境，说明本段主要介绍颜色这一话题，作为段首句契合后文内容。故选A。 38． 前文“Those associations might be cultural. White, for example, is commonly associated with purity and innocence in Western cultures, whereas in China, people associate it with death and mourning. (这些关联可能是文化上的。例如，在西方文化中，白色通常与纯洁和纯真联系在一起，而在中国，人们把它与死亡和哀悼联系在一起)”从文化的角度具体介绍颜色与某种属性的关联，因此F项“Or we can form associations based on our personal experience and values. (或者我们可以根据个人经验和价值观形成联想)”符合语境，提出颜色的这种关联也有可能是基于个人经验和价值观，和前文是选择关系。故选F。 39． 前文“As a result, associations can differ widely from person to person and culture to culture. Others might read into our outfits something different than we intend. (因此，联想会很大程度上因人而异，因文化而异。其他人可能会对我们的着装有不同的解读)”提到联想的差异会导致他人对着装有不同解读，因此D项“Thus, they will misunderstand our values and identity. (因此，他们会误解我们的价值观和身份)”符合语境，描述误解价值观和身份的结果，承接前文。故选D。 40． 前文“But as long as we are not wearing our clothes specifically to communicate certain qualities to others in a specific context (such as professionalism at a job interview), what others think of our clothes should be less important than what we think of them and why we choose to wear them. (但是，只要我们穿衣服不是专门为了在特定的环境中向他人传达某些品质（比如求职面试中的专业性），别人对我们衣服的看法就没有我们对衣服的看法以及我们选择穿衣服的原因那么重要)”指出除非有特定的需求，否则我们的穿衣应以自己为主，而非他人的看法，因此B项“We ought to dress to benefit ourselves, not others. (我们穿衣服应该是为了自己，而不是为了别人)”符合语境，指出穿衣的本质是服务于自身，解释前文这样做的原因。故选B。 试卷第1页，共3页 试卷第1页，共3页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
