[知能演练]
Ⅰ.[语篇解读] 本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章主要讲的是作者原本觉得别人介绍的在烦恼的时候去散步的建议是无用的,在有一次作者处于人生低谷的时候,作者尝试去散步,坚持下去后作者看到了自己的变化,作者建议读者过得很糟糕的时候去尝试散步。
1.B 细节理解题。根据第一段的“Suggestions like this are often said with nothing but the best of intentions, but they used to make me angry as much as being told to drink more water.(像这样的建议通常是出于好意,但它们曾经让我生气,就像被告知要多喝水一样。)”可知,当人们建议作者去散步时,她觉得生气,故选B。
2.C 推理判断题。根据第二段的“Once I saw a pair of empty eyes looking at me through the mirror...it would somehow change my life.(有一次,我透过镜子看到一双空洞的眼睛望着我,我知道自己到了崩溃的边缘。于是,我接受了我拼了好大劲才忽略的建议。我去散步,希望它能以某种方式改变我的生活。)”可知,三年前,作者决定去散步是因为她的绝望驱使她去尝试。故选C。
3.D 推理判断题。根据第三段的“I took a picture every time I went. I think I wanted to document (记录) myself trying to make an effort.(我每次去都照一张相。我想记录下自己努力的过程。)”,第四段的“One day, the unthinkable happened. I found myself smiling.(有一天,不可思议的事情发生了。我发现自己笑了。)”和倒数第二段的“I'm glad I took pictures because there was a noticeable difference in my face.(我很高兴我拍了照片,因为我的脸有了明显的不同。)”可知,作者开始散步后受到了她给自己拍的照片的鼓舞,故选D。
4.B 细节理解题。根据最后一段的“If you're having a bad day, a bad month, a bad year or even a bad life, you should try going for a walk.(如果你某一天、某一个月、某一年甚至这一生都过得很糟糕,你应该试着去散散步。)”可知,作者建议我们情绪低落的时候出去散散步。故选B。
Ⅱ.[语篇解读] 本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了竹子在我们日常生活中的巨大作用。
1.was used 考查动词时态和语态。句意:早在商代,竹子就被用于食物、衣服、住房、交通、乐器甚至武器。根据时间状语As early as the Shang Dynasty可知事情发生在过去,故时态用一般过去时,且bamboo 与use“使用”为被动关系,主语为第三人称单数,be动词用was。故填was used。
2.application 考查名词。句意:竹子在科技上的应用是令人激动的。分析句子可知此处缺主语,因此应用名词application“应用”。故填application。
3.led 考查动词时态。句意:公元前251年,四川的李冰带领当地人民建造了都江堰,这是世界上第一个灌溉网络,竹子在其中发挥了一个重要的作用。根据句子的时间状语In 251 BC可知,事情发生在过去,故时态用一般过去时,谓语用过去式led“带领”。故填led。
4.an 考查冠词。句意:公元前251年,四川的李冰带领当地人民建造了都江堰,这是世界上第一个灌溉网络,竹子在其中发挥了一个重要的作用。play a...role“起……的作用”,且important以元音音素开头,应用不定冠词an。故填an。
5.successfully 考查副词。句意:汉代时,四川人用粗竹绳成功地挖了一口深达1600米的井。此处应用副词successfully“成功地”,修饰谓语动词sank。故填successfully。
6.until 考查连词。句意:这项技术直到19世纪才传到欧洲,正是利用这项技术,美国人于1859年在宾夕法尼亚州钻出了第一口油井。根据句意可知此处应填until, not...until...意为“直到……才……”。故填until。
7.that 考查强调句。句意:这项技术直到19世纪才传到欧洲,正是利用这项技术,美国人于1859年在宾夕法尼亚州钻出了第一口油井。分析句子结构可知此处为强调句,“it be+被强调部分+that+其他”,强调句子的方式状语by using the technology。故填that。
8.as 考查固定短语。句意:在中国文化中,竹子被誉为植物中的“四君子”之一。be wellknown as“众所周知”,为固定短语。故填as。
9.related 考查形容词。句意:对于许多杰出的人来说,竹子是善良和诚实的象征。总是与积极向上的人密切相关。be related to意为“与……有关系”,为固定短语。故填related。
10.facing 考查非谓语动词。句意:竹子文化有助于鼓励人们在遇到困难时坚持下去。when ________(face) tough situations在句中作时间状语,face“面对”与其逻辑主语people之间是主谓关系,应用现在分词短语作状语。故填facing。

Ⅰ.阅读理解
(2024·江苏响水高二统考)In times of distress, a friend would always suggest going for a walk. “Are you overwhelmed by your work? Take a talk around the neighborhood.” Suggestions like this are often said with nothing but the best of intentions, but they used to make me angry as much as being told to drink more water. I did not understand how these things were going to help.
Three years ago, I hit a low point. Once I saw a pair of empty eyes looking at me through the mirror, I knew I was at my breaking point. So, I took the advice I fought so hard to ignore. I went for a walk—with the hope that it would somehow change my life.
I embraced the fresh air everyone seemed to be talking about. But it did nothing. I was just as sad as I was before. I went on a walk every single day for more than a month. Some days I could hardly make it outside, but I managed to push through. I took a picture every time I went. I think I wanted to document (记录) myself trying to make an effort.
One day, the unthinkable happened. I found myself smiling. I realized I had patiently waited all morning to go on this walk. What I once hated had become the best part of my day. I found myself longing to be outside. I never had a destination in mind. I just danced along the trails, stopped to look at the beautiful blue skies and listened to music.
I'm glad I took pictures because there was anoticeable difference in my face. I slowly started to look less tired and defeated. I don't know why I refused to go on that walk for so long. I guess I didn't want to believe that something small and seemingly meaningless could actually make an impact on my physical and mental wellbeing.
If you're having a bad day, a bad month, a bad year or even a bad life, you should try going for a walk. Sometimes, all we need to do is try.
1.How did the author use to feel when people suggested she go for a walk?
A.Pleased. B.Annoyed.
C.Interested. D.Surprised.
2.Why did the author decide to go for a walk three years ago?
A.Her friend encouraged her.
B.She wanted to challenge herself.
C.Her hopelessness drove her to try.
D.She was eager to get close to nature.
3.What happened after the author started to go for a walk?
A.She felt cheered up after the first week.
B.She always set off with a destination in mind.
C.She stopped for a while due to lack of progress.
D.She was inspired by the pictures she took of herself.
4.What does the author advise us to do?
A.Care about our mental wellbeing.
B.Go for a walk when feeling down.
C.Stay positive when bad things happen.
D.Take other people's suggestions seriously.
