The Internet’s arrival was gradual, like a child growing before our eyes, with qualities that were both predictable and unknown. As it became a global reality, predictions about its impact grew — covering research, communication, education, and the transformation of writing, learning, and memory. The Internet, once a novelty but now an ordinary part of life, has ceased to surprise us and has developed into a deep dependence, with some falling into addiction. It integrates communication, knowledge, entertainment, and business into a single, accessible medium, making it as common as the telephone while distancing us from the world we once knew. This realization often strikes me as I find myself absorbed in front of a screen, even though surrounded by books, struggling to assess its true impact on my life. I often find myself torn between appreciating the convenience of the Internet and being horrified by the dependence it promotes. The rapid pace and accessibility of information, along with social networking, have lessened our need to move in the real world. The Internet has reduced our existence to a screen, leaving little space for slowness, privacy, and peace, while the world I knew as a child, in books, contrasts sharply with the fast-paced, artificial realities of the digital world. While technologies shape the real world, few have so deeply affected our minds. For those born after the Internet’s rise, it is all they know, while for those of us who lived in a pre-Internet age, the difference is striking. Perhaps teaching history and the evolution of technology in schools could help children understand that their technology, as deeply integrated into their lives as it seems, is just one part of the universe. 4．What does the author imply by comparing the Internet’s growth to a child's? A．Its complexity. B．Its anticipation. C．Its slowness. D．Its inescapability. 5．What impact does the author think the Internet has had? A．More unfamiliarity with others. B．Less physical interaction. C．An apparent lack of books. D．A very noisy world. 6．What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A．Technology defines all. B．The old era is better. C．The world exists beyond technology. D．Generations shape internet trends. 7．Which of the following is the best title for the text? A．The Rise of the Internet B．The Internet’s Role in Modern Life C．Shifting Realities: The Internet’s Impact D．Typewriters to Screens: Digital Shift （二）（2025届湖北省黄冈市学海园大联考） In the Digital Age, we’ve grown accustomed to instant gratification. With a few clicks, we can access information, shop online, and communicate with people across the globe. However, this convenience has led to a decline in patience. Research suggests that practicing patience can actually improve our well-being and lead to better outcomes in various aspects of life. Patience has long been regarded as a virtue, and now, scientific evidence firmly supports its numerous benefits. Studies have shown that practicing gratitude and patience can reduce stress, increase happiness, and even improve decision-making skills. For example, delaying immediate rewards in favor of long-term benefits can lead to greater satisfaction and success. This is because patience allows us to think more clearly and avoid impulsive actions that may have negative consequences. Moreover, patience is crucial in building strong relationships. In a world where instant communication is the norm, people often expect immediate responses. However, taking the time to listen and understand others can lead to deeper connections and more meaningful interactions. For instance, putting off watching a favorite show to spend quality time with family or friends can strengthen bonds and create lasting memories. Despite these benefits, many people struggle to be patient. The constant stream of notifications and the pressure to respond immediately can make it difficult to practice patience. However, small changes in behavior can make a big difference. For example, setting aside specific times to check emails or social media can help reduce the-urge to respond immediately. Additionally, practicing mindfulness and focusing on the present moment; can improve one’s ability to remain patient. While the Digital Age has brought many conveniences, it has also weakened our patience. By acknowledging the significance of patience and making a conscious-effort-to-cultivate-it-in-our-daily-lives, we can experience remarkable improvements in our mental health, and overall quality of life. 12．What does the underlined word “gratification” mean in the first paragraph? A．Gratitude. B．Satisfaction. C．Curiosity. D．Disturbance. 13．Which examples best illustrates the importance of patience in building relationships? A．John always replies to his friends’ messages within seconds. B．Tom quickly finishes his homework so that he can watch TV. C．Lily buys a new dress online without thinking carefully. D．Mary chooses to chat with her mother instead of playing mobile games. 14．What can be inferred about the author’s attitude towards the Digital Age? A．Supportive. B．Objective. C．Negative. D．Indifferent. 15．What is the main idea of the passage? A．The Digital Age has made people’s lives more convenient. B．Patience is a virtue that should be practiced in the Digital Age. C．Instant gratification is necessary for modern life. D．Technology has improved people’s ability to communicate. （三）（2025届浙江省金华十校联考） Jared was my regular hiking, ice-climbing and mountain-biking fellow. We were on an overnight trip, just a single night, and what he’d brought for dinner was this: Rice. Literally nothing else. This was not a result of him trying to pack as light as possible, nor was it because he was broke. He wasn’t. I tried to convince him to at least put soy sauce (酱油) on it. But no, Jared wasn’t having a bar of it. “I don’t need it,” he said flatly. Now, if he was talking only about outdoors’ meals, I’d almost get it. When you’re ravenous after a day of burning off calories walking or climbing or backcountry skiing in the mountains, how awesome do things taste! I know what you’re thinking; it’s simply that, as the saying goes, hunger is the best sauce. And I agree. Absolutely. But there’s more to it than that. Last month, I went down the coast car camping with my family. One morning, my wife made a statement. “I don’t see the point,” she said. “It’s so much work, camping. But the views at home are better. The beds are more comfortable. It’s more peaceful. And at home, the food is better.” I’ll admit she’s right about the first three. But the food? We had a simple pasta one night, snags another, chicken curry the third, but they all tasted good. Better than at home. And it wasn’t simply that we were hungry; it was because we were camping. The real point I want to get to is that meals largely taste so good when I’m camping because I’m reminded of some things easily forgotten at home, where I can simply go to the cupboard, or the supermarket, and get whatever takes my fancy. Life, when you’re camping, is reduced to its essentials, and I am reminded of how lucky most of us are to be dry and warm and fed. More importantly, I am reminded that sadly, and in fact unforgivably, not all of us are. And I am reminded that we, as a society, should do better for them. 24．Why did Jared bring only rice for dinner on the trip? A．He didn’t like soy sauce. B．He preferred to travel light. C．He couldn’t afford a better meal. D．He enjoyed simple outdoor meals. 25．What does the underlined word “ravenous” in the third paragraph mean? A．Tired. B．Starving. C．Fulfilled. D．Refreshed. 26．What does the author think of camping? A．It is a test of adaptability. B．It is a chance to enjoy good food. C．It is a reminder of the good life he has. D．It is a bonding experience for his family. 27．What makes the author sad according to the last paragraph? A．Some people lack the basic necessities of life. B．Some people fail to appreciate what they have. C．People easily forget the beauty of simple things. D．People easily quit camping due to its discomfort. （四）（2025届江西名校联盟） How do you read? Some only read dialogue while others might skip long sections of text or only read the first and last sentence in a paragraph. According to experts, skimming — where you skip over words and sections to grasp the main idea of a text — is a common reading strategy. “That’s totally fine,” says Daniel Willingham, a psychologist at the University of Virginia, “as long as skimming or scanning doesn’t get in the way of understanding.” “If you intend to read for fun or finish in a short amount of time, skimming is a great way to get the general idea of what a text is saying,” says Joanna Christodoulou, a professor at the MGH Institute of Health Professions. “Additionally, how well a person knows the type of text they’re reading might influence the strategy they use to read,” Christodoulou adds. Someone that reads many mystery novels, for example, may get used to the structure and feelings elicited (引出) by the text and thus be able to skip or skim sections and still get what’s going on. Experts often contrast skimming with close reading, where a reader connects new information to previous knowledge, asks questions, and develops a deeper understanding of the text. However, some experts argue the distinction between the two might not be that useful. Inge van de Ven from Tilburg University argues that during close reading, readers adjust their attention, using both skimming and close reading to get an understanding of a text. Willingham theorizes that our changing reading habits are likely not because our attention is degraded, but because the Internet provides access to too much fun content, our willingness to focus on a text might be decreasing. “There’s also a sense that we need to consume information quickly, because there’s so much of it,” he adds. He’s optimistic, however, that most people can learn these close reading skills with practice. Overall, each person’s reading journey is unique, experts emphasize. It might not be helpful to pit (使对立) skimming and close reading against each other, but rather to understand that both are important to learn and consume content, especially in the digital age. 12．What is Daniel Willingham’s attitude towards skimming generally? A．Favourable. B．Negative. C．Doubtful. D．Unconcerned. 13．What is the impact of one’s familiarity with a text type? A．It enhances close reading. B．It complicates understanding. C．It makes skimming efficient. D．It can damage one’s attention. 14．What does Inge van de Ven say about skimming and close reading? A．They need to be treated separately. B．They contrast sharply with each other. C．They require more focused attention. D．They are often employed in a combined way. 15．According to Daniel Willingham, what is a potential reason for changing reading habits? A．Lack of interest. B．Endless online entertainment. C．Reading complexity. D．Decreased attention to information. （五）（2025届江苏省部分高中联考） On April 16, 2022, at an indoor sports venue in Daegu, South Korea, Kim Kyu Tae managed to break the world record for the longest paper plane flight with each one of his eight throws. The previous record of 69.14 metres set by Joe Ayoob and John M. Collins had been standing for a decade, but Kim managed to break it on all of his eight measured attempts (71.813 metres being the shortest and 77.134 metres being the farthest). But Kim was just one part of a team who worked hard on designing and building this simple-looking but remarkable paper plane. Kim Kyu Tae is one of the best paper plane throwers in the world, but even his rocket-powered arm can do little to break world records if the design of the plane and the build quality are lacking. That’s where his partners, Chee Yie Jian, who designed the plane, and fellow South Korean, Shin Moo Joon, who was tasked with folding the paper, come in. Together, they became an unstoppable force. Interestingly, Chee, who comes from Malaysia, wasn’t present in Daegu for the record-breaking event, and he has never even met his two teammates in person before. The paper plane building community is apparently global, and they were able to lay out their plans online. While paper planes are considered mere toys by a lot of people, to those who build and fly them competitively, they are complex creations that vary greatly in terms of paper used, geometry and weight. It all depends on the end goal of the designer. For their particular paper plane, the team decided to use CX22 100GSM, which is one of the highest quality 100GSM papers in the world, according to Shin Moo Joon. It was the same type of paper used by Ayoob and Collins for their world record attempt in 2012. Now that they’ve broken the world record, the three paper plane enthusiasts have their sights set on bigger things. They are confident that their creations can fly over 80 metres, provided they can find a more spacious indoor venue, and they are also considering tackling the record for “longest flying paper aircraft (duration)”, set by Takuo Toda of Japan (29.2 seconds). 28．Which has the least impact on paper plane’s performance? A．The player’s arm strength. B．The paper plane’s form. C．The designer’s competence. D．The quality of the paper. 29．What do we know about Chee Yie Jian? A．He and Shin Moo Joon are from the same country. B．He had never met his teammates before the game. C．He didn’t witness his partner setting the record. D．He is better at the art of folding paper planes. 30．Which best describes the process of making paper planes for competitions? A．Pleasing. B．Demanding. C．Competitive. D．Comparative. 31．What contributed to their successfully breaking the record? A．Working as a team. B．Finding an ideal venue. C．Using high-quality paper. D．Setting clear goals. （六）（2025届江西省华大新高考联盟高） A growing number of companies are building humanoid robots, and these mechanical look-alikes are starting to appear in car factories and delivery places. Some businesses even promise robots for home use. Yet one big question still has no answer: Why bother? Why make a robot in a human shape when it could take any imaginable form? The usual answer is that humanoid robots could, in principle, handle any physical jobs a person can. But that “in principle” is doing a lot of heavy lifting. If you’ve watched videos of these robots, you’ll get it — they’re often clumsy, awkward machines. Sure, the technology helping them stand and move has come a long way, but they’re still not as quick or graceful as humans. Meanwhile, robots built for a single job — like an arm shifting goods between conveyor belts (传送带) — are now commonplace. Designed with one purpose, they do it really well, unlike humanoid robots, which aim to do everything but often master nothing. Another argument is that a human shape makes it easier for people to work with or control robots. This holds some water, especially since many of these machines still need skilled human operators. Companies often avoid admitting this, calling it a short-term phase, but the dream of fully independent, AI-powered humanoid robots — ones that match or beat human workers — remains a long shot. For now, what we’ve got are human-shaped shells guided by people behind the scenes. When Elon Musk introduced Tesla’s Optimus robot in 2021, he proudly claimed it could teach, babysit, walk dogs, fetch groceries, or pour drinks. Yet those robots weren’t AI-driven, and each was controlled by a hidden human. Notice a pattern? These tasks—low-wage, service-oriented jobs — suggest that, for now, humanoid robots just mask human effort with a shiny surface. Some remote-controlled robots serve real purposes, like in deep-sea exploration. But those machines aren’t shaped like humans — they look like capsules or small vehicles, and they work just fine. The idea that robots must be human-shaped is a failure of imagination. Yes, humanoid robots look impressive. They remind us of the fantasies in science fictions where machines handle all difficult tasks. But today, they are mostly marketing tools, masking human labor. And a robot that doesn’t truly improve life is missing the point. 8．What does the underlined phrase “holds some water” mean in paragraph 3? A．Provides sufficient evidence. B．Makes much sense. C．Is partly reasonable. D．Is widely accepted. 9．Why does the author mention Tesla’s Optimus robot? A．To prove humanoid robots are better. B．To highlight its impressive technology. C．To show it can replace human workers. D．To suggest it is in the charge of humans. 10．What is the author’s attitude toward humanoid robots? A．Skeptical. B．Optimistic. C．Neutral. D．Cautious. 11．What is the best title for the passage? A．When Humanoid Robots Miss Potential B．How Humanoid Robots Miss Goals C．What Humanoid Robots Lack Now D．Why Humanoid Robots Fall Short （七）（2025届福建省名校联盟） Street artist Banksy has caught attention this summer with a striking series of artworks across London. The pieces, all featuring animals, have appeared in various public spaces, leaving both locals and visitors surprised and curious. While Banksy’s true identity remains unknown, he has used social media to share these works, further strengthening his image as an artist whose art often tackles social issues. The recent series includes a range of animal-themed images, such as a black goat on an industrial building, two elephants seemingly talking through windows, monkeys swinging across a bridge, and a wolf painted on a satellite dish. These works have appeared in different areas of London and sparked much discussion, with many wondering about their meaning. Some critics believe the series may be a comment on the U. K., suggesting that humanity might eventually destroy itself, allowing nature to take over the city. Others have pointed out the artist’s ongoing concerns with environmental and animal welfare issues. Banksy’s art is known for mixing humor with deeper social messages. While his pieces often make people laugh and grab attention, they also encourage viewers to think critically about the world around them. Art dealers say that, despite his anti-establishment themes, his work has strong commercial value, which makes it even more attractive. His ability to challenge the traditional art world while appealing to both collectors and the public has only increased his reputation as a global cultural figure. One key reason for Banksy’s continued success is his ability to stay anonymous (匿名). His hidden identity allows him to share bold opinions without the criticism. This mystery, along with his reputation for charity work, has helped keep his appeal strong. Through his latest animal-themed series, Banksy highlights important issues like animal rights and environmental concerns while encouraging the public to think more deeply about society, art, and activism. 4．What can we know about Banksy from paragraph 1? A．His reputation is built offline. B．His works are privately collected. C．His art centers around social issues. D．His pieces have caught global attention. 5．What is a possible interpretation of Banksy’s recent works? A．They indicate the fight for human rights. B．They reflect the dominance of technology. C．They show the development of modern art. D．They symbolize the collapse of civilization. 6．Which of the following best describes Banksy? A．Humorous and innovative. B．Conventional and humble. C．Curious and diligent. D．Patient and determined. 7．Why might Banksy maintain anonymity? A．To protect his own privacy. B．To avoid primary legal issues. C．To boost the mystery in his art. D．To share personal views risk-free. （八）（2025届福建省泉州市四校联考） The birth of a male white-tailed eagle signals the success of the Roy Dennis Wildlife Foundation (RDWF) and Forestry England project to return these iconic birds to their original widespread locations along the southern coast of England. The last time a white-tailed eagle chick grew in England, Mozart was working on his opera Idomeneo in Germany For two centuries these amazing birds were missing from most of the UK, having been wiped out by human persecution by the early 20th century. In 2020, the parents of the landmark bird were translocated from the Outer Hebrides and north-west Sutherland in Scotland to the Isle of Wight. This is an area with plentiful food to sustain them. It is also a location from which the birds could spread out to cliffs, lakes and forests. Female G405 and male G471 were two of 25 eagles (16 are still alive) released by the RDWF and Forestry England as part of the ongoing project. And they are one of three pairs to have now established breeding territories in the south of England. The chick hatched earlier this summer at a nest on private land, the exact location of which is being kept a secret to ensure the welfare of the young bird. “This is a very special moment for everyone who has worked on, supported and followed this ground-breaking project,” Roy Dennis says, founder of the RDWF. “Restoring a breeding population in southern England, where the species was once widespread, has been our ultimate goal. Seeing the first pair reach this stage is truly incredible.” The young white-tailed eagle has now been ringed and fitted with a satellite tag (标签) so that its progress can be tracked. A further release of young white-tailed eagles is planned for late summer from the project team’s base on the Isle of Wight. 8．What is the author’s purpose in mentioning Mozart in paragraph 1? A．To admire the musician’s great works. B．To celebrate the birth of the white-tailed eagle. C．To compare the situations of England and Germany. D．To emphasize white-tailed eagles’ centuries-long absence. 9．Which word can replace the underlined word “persecution” in paragraph 2? A．Hunt. B．Exploration. C．Disturbance. D．Training. 10．Why is the accurate position of the chick kept secret? A．For privacy. B．For safety. C．For territory. D．For support. 11．Which may be a suitable title for the text? A．A Splendid Bird B．A Successful Wildlife Project C．Milestone for White-tailed Eagles D．Restoring a Breeding Population 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 专题03阅读理解新闻报道&议论文 目录 （一）（2025届湖北省高中名校联盟） （二）（2025届湖北省黄冈市学海园大联考） （三）（2025届浙江省金华十校联考） （四）（2025届江西名校联盟） （五）（2025届江苏省部分高中联考） （六）（2025届江西省华大新高考联盟高） （七）（2025届福建省名校联盟） （八）（2025届福建省泉州市四校联考） （一）（2025届湖北省高中名校联盟） I still recall typing essays on a beloved typewriter during my first year of university, gradually shifting to the first computer and email.

With a few clicks, we can access information, shop online, and communicate with people across the globe. However, this convenience has led to a decline in patience. (在数字时代，我们已逐渐习惯了即时gratification。只需点击几下，我们就能获取信息、在线购物并与全球各地的人交流。然而，这种便利导致了耐心的减退。)”可知，在数字时代，只需点击几下，我们就能获取信息、在线购物并与全球各地的人交流，人们已经习惯了即时满足感（即通过简单的操作就能立即获得想要的东西）。所以gratification在此处的意思是“满足，满意”。故选B。 13．推理判断题。根据第三段“Moreover, patience is crucial in building strong relationships. In a world where instant communication is the norm, people often expect immediate responses. However, taking the time to listen and understand others can lead to deeper connections and more meaningful interactions. For instance, putting off watching a favorite show to spend quality time with family or friends can strengthen bonds and create lasting memories. (此外，耐心对于建立牢固的关系至关重要。在一个即时通讯成为常态的世界里，人们往往期望立即得到回应。然而，花时间倾听和理解他人可以带来更深入的联系和更有意义的互动。例如，推迟看最喜欢的节目，与家人或朋友共度美好时光，可以加强彼此的联系，创造持久的回忆。)”可知，“玛丽选择和她妈妈聊天而不是玩手机游戏”最能说明耐心在建立关系中的重要性。故选D。 14．推理判断题。根据最后一段“While the Digital Age has brought many conveniences, it has also weakened our patience. By acknowledging the significance of patience and making a conscious-effort-to-cultivate-it-in-our-daily-lives, we can experience remarkable improvements in our mental health, and overall quality of life. (虽然数字时代带来了许多便利，但它也削弱了我们的耐心。通过认识到耐心的重要性并有意识地在日常生活中培养它，我们的心理健康和整体生活质量就能得到显著改善。)”可知，作者既提到了数字时代的便利，也指出了它带来的问题（如耐心下降），并提出了培养耐心的建议。因此，作者对数字时代的态度是客观的。故选B。 15．主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是根据第一段中“Research suggests that practicing patience can actually improve our well-being and lead to better outcomes in various aspects of life. (研究表明，培养耐心实际上可以改善我们的幸福感，并在生活的各个方面带来更好的结果。)”以及最后一段中“By acknowledging the significance of patience and making a conscious effort to cultivate it in our daily lives, we can experience remarkable improvements in our mental health, and overall quality of life. (通过认识到耐心的重要性，并在日常生活中有意识地培养它，我们可以体验到心理健康和整体生活质量的显著提高。)”可知，文章主要讲述了在数字时代，人们已经习惯了即时满足感，但这种便利也导致了人们耐心的下降。研究表明，耐心实际上可以改善我们的幸福感，并在生活的各个方面带来更好的结果。文章还讨论了如何在日常生活中培养耐心。可知，这篇文章的主旨是在数字时代，耐心是一种应该被培养的美德。故选B。 （三）（2025届浙江省金华十校联考） Jared was my regular hiking, ice-climbing and mountain-biking fellow. We were on an overnight trip, just a single night, and what he’d brought for dinner was this: Rice. Literally nothing else. This was not a result of him trying to pack as light as possible, nor was it because he was broke. He wasn’t. I tried to convince him to at least put soy sauce (酱油) on it. But no, Jared wasn’t having a bar of it. “I don’t need it,” he said flatly. Now, if he was talking only about outdoors’ meals, I’d almost get it. When you’re ravenous after a day of burning off calories walking or climbing or backcountry skiing in the mountains, how awesome do things taste! I know what you’re thinking; it’s simply that, as the saying goes, hunger is the best sauce. And I agree. Absolutely. But there’s more to it than that. Last month, I went down the coast car camping with my family. One morning, my wife made a statement. “I don’t see the point,” she said. “It’s so much work, camping. But the views at home are better. The beds are more comfortable. It’s more peaceful. And at home, the food is better.” I’ll admit she’s right about the first three. But the food? We had a simple pasta one night, snags another, chicken curry the third, but they all tasted good. Better than at home. And it wasn’t simply that we were hungry; it was because we were camping. The real point I want to get to is that meals largely taste so good when I’m camping because I’m reminded of some things easily forgotten at home, where I can simply go to the cupboard, or the supermarket, and get whatever takes my fancy. Life, when you’re camping, is reduced to its essentials, and I am reminded of how lucky most of us are to be dry and warm and fed. More importantly, I am reminded that sadly, and in fact unforgivably, not all of us are. And I am reminded that we, as a society, should do better for them. 24．Why did Jared bring only rice for dinner on the trip? A．He didn’t like soy sauce. B．He preferred to travel light. C．He couldn’t afford a better meal. D．He enjoyed simple outdoor meals. 25．What does the underlined word “ravenous” in the third paragraph mean? A．Tired. B．Starving. C．Fulfilled. D．Refreshed. 26．What does the author think of camping? A．It is a test of adaptability. B．It is a chance to enjoy good food. C．It is a reminder of the good life he has. D．It is a bonding experience for his family. 27．What makes the author sad according to the last paragraph? A．Some people lack the basic necessities of life. B．Some people fail to appreciate what they have. C．People easily forget the beauty of simple things. D．People easily quit camping due to its discomfort. 【答案】24．D 25．B 26．C 27．A 【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章通过讲述作者朋友旅行只带米饭以及家人露营的经历，阐述了露营时食物美味的原因，还引发了对生活的思考。 24．细节理解题。根据第二段中“This was not a result of him trying to pack as light as possible, nor was it because he was broke. He wasn’t. I tried to convince him to at least put soy sauce on it. But no, Jared wasn’t having a bar of it. ‘I don’t need it,’ he said flatly. (这并不是因为他尽量轻装上阵，也不是因为他身无分文。他不是。我试图说服他至少在米饭上加点酱油。但不行，贾里德根本不同意。“我不需要，”他直截了当地说)”可知，贾里德坚持只吃米饭，不是因为他尽量轻装上阵，不是因为他没钱吃不起更好的饭菜，文中也没有明确表示他不喜欢酱油，所以，他只吃米饭是因为他喜欢简单的户外餐食。故选D项。 25．词句猜测题。根据划线词所在部分“When you’re ravenous after a day of burning off calories walking or climbing or backcountry skiing in the mountains, how awesome do things taste! I know what you’re thinking; it’s simply that, as the saying goes, hunger is the best sauce. (当你在山里徒步、爬山或野外滑雪消耗了一天的卡路里后感到ravenous时，食物尝起来是多么美味啊！我知道你在想什么；俗话说，饥饿是最好的调味品)”中“after a day of burning off calories”和“hunger is the best sauce”可推知，经过一天的卡路里消耗后，会感到饥饿，食物会变得美味。故“ravenous”的意思是“饥饿的”，与B项“Starving”同义。故选B项。 26．细节理解题。根据最后一段中“The real point I want to get to is that meals largely taste so good when I’m camping because I’m reminded of some things easily forgotten at home, where I can simply go to the cupboard, or the supermarket, and get whatever takes my fancy. Life, when you’re camping, is reduced to its essentials, and I am reminded of how lucky most of us are to be dry and warm and fed. (我真正想说的是，当我在露营时，食物的味道很大程度上是如此的好，因为我想起了一些在家里很容易忘记的东西，在家里我可以简单地去橱柜或超市，买到我喜欢的任何东西。当你在露营时，生活只剩下最基本的东西，我想起我们大多数人都是多么幸运，能保持干燥、温暖和吃饱)”可知，作者认为露营能让他想起在家里很容易忘记的东西，想起自己所拥有的美好生活。故选C项。 27．细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Life, when you’re camping, is reduced to its essentials, and I am reminded of how lucky most of us are to be dry and warm and fed. More importantly, I am reminded that sadly, and in fact unforgivably, not all of us are. And I am reminded that we, as a society, should do better for them. (当你在露营时，生活只剩下最基本的东西，我想起我们大多数人都是多么幸运，能保持干燥、温暖和吃饱。更重要的是，我想起了可悲的、事实上不可原谅的是，并非所有人都如此。我想起作为一个社会，我们应该为他们做得更好)”可知，作者想到并非所有人都能保持干燥、温暖和吃饱，作者因为想到一些人缺乏基本生活必需品而感到难过。故选A项。 （四）（2025届江西名校联盟） How do you read? Some only read dialogue while others might skip long sections of text or only read the first and last sentence in a paragraph. According to experts, skimming — where you skip over words and sections to grasp the main idea of a text — is a common reading strategy. “That’s totally fine,” says Daniel Willingham, a psychologist at the University of Virginia, “as long as skimming or scanning doesn’t get in the way of understanding.” “If you intend to read for fun or finish in a short amount of time, skimming is a great way to get the general idea of what a text is saying,” says Joanna Christodoulou, a professor at the MGH Institute of Health Professions. “Additionally, how well a person knows the type of text they’re reading might influence the strategy they use to read,” Christodoulou adds. Someone that reads many mystery novels, for example, may get used to the structure and feelings elicited (引出) by the text and thus be able to skip or skim sections and still get what’s going on. Experts often contrast skimming with close reading, where a reader connects new information to previous knowledge, asks questions, and develops a deeper understanding of the text. However, some experts argue the distinction between the two might not be that useful. Inge van de Ven from Tilburg University argues that during close reading, readers adjust their attention, using both skimming and close reading to get an understanding of a text. Willingham theorizes that our changing reading habits are likely not because our attention is degraded, but because the Internet provides access to too much fun content, our willingness to focus on a text might be decreasing. “There’s also a sense that we need to consume information quickly, because there’s so much of it,” he adds. He’s optimistic, however, that most people can learn these close reading skills with practice. Overall, each person’s reading journey is unique, experts emphasize. It might not be helpful to pit (使对立) skimming and close reading against each other, but rather to understand that both are important to learn and consume content, especially in the digital age. 12．What is Daniel Willingham’s attitude towards skimming generally? A．Favourable. B．Negative. C．Doubtful. D．Unconcerned. 13．What is the impact of one’s familiarity with a text type? A．It enhances close reading. B．It complicates understanding. C．It makes skimming efficient. D．It can damage one’s attention. 14．What does Inge van de Ven say about skimming and close reading? A．They need to be treated separately. B．They contrast sharply with each other. C．They require more focused attention. D．They are often employed in a combined way. 15．According to Daniel Willingham, what is a potential reason for changing reading habits? A．Lack of interest. B．Endless online entertainment. C．Reading complexity. D．Decreased attention to information. 【答案】12．A 13．C 14．D 15．B 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。主要讲述了作者从科学的角度对略读和精读两种阅读策略进行了分析。 12．推理判断题。根据第一段中““That’s totally fine,” says Daniel Willingham, a psychologist at the University of Virginia, “as long as skimming or scanning doesn’t get in the way of understanding.”(“这完全没问题，”弗吉尼亚大学的心理学家Daniel Willingham说，“只要略读或扫读不妨碍理解。”)”可推断，Daniel Willingham总的来说对略读持“赞成的”态度。故选A项。 13．细节理解题。根据第二段中““Additionally, how well a person knows the type of text they’re reading might influence the strategy they use to read,” Christodoulou adds. Someone that reads many mystery novels, for example, may get used to the structure and feelings elicited (引出) by the text and thus be able to skip or skim sections and still get what’s going on.(Christodoulou补充说：“此外，一个人对他们正在阅读的文本类型的了解程度可能会影响他们使用的阅读策略。”例如，读过很多推理小说的人，可能会习惯文本的结构和引发的感觉，因此可以跳过或略读部分内容，但仍能了解其中的内容。)”可知，对一篇文章类型的熟悉度会使略读更有效。故选C项。 14．推理判断题。根据第三段中“Inge van de Ven from Tilburg University argues that during close reading, readers adjust their attention, using both skimming and close reading to get an understanding of a text.(蒂尔堡大学的Inge van de Ven认为，在细读过程中，读者会调整注意力，同时使用略读和细读来理解文章。)”可推断，Inge van de Ven认为略读和精读通常相结合使用。故选D项。 15．推理判断题。根据第四段中“Willingham theorizes that our changing reading habits are likely not because our attention is degraded, but because the Internet provides access to too much fun content, our willingness to focus on a text might be decreasing.( Willingham的理论是，我们阅读习惯的改变可能不是因为我们的注意力下降了，而是因为互联网提供了太多有趣的内容，我们专注于一篇文章的意愿可能会下降。)”可推断，互联网上不计其数的娱乐可能是阅读习惯改变的一个潜在原因。故选B项。 （五）（2025届江苏省部分高中联考） On April 16, 2022, at an indoor sports venue in Daegu, South Korea, Kim Kyu Tae managed to break the world record for the longest paper plane flight with each one of his eight throws. The previous record of 69.14 metres set by Joe Ayoob and John M. Collins had been standing for a decade, but Kim managed to break it on all of his eight measured attempts (71.813 metres being the shortest and 77.134 metres being the farthest). But Kim was just one part of a team who worked hard on designing and building this simple-looking but remarkable paper plane. Kim Kyu Tae is one of the best paper plane throwers in the world, but even his rocket-powered arm can do little to break world records if the design of the plane and the build quality are lacking. That’s where his partners, Chee Yie Jian, who designed the plane, and fellow South Korean, Shin Moo Joon, who was tasked with folding the paper, come in. Together, they became an unstoppable force. Interestingly, Chee, who comes from Malaysia, wasn’t present in Daegu for the record-breaking event, and he has never even met his two teammates in person before. The paper plane building community is apparently global, and they were able to lay out their plans online. While paper planes are considered mere toys by a lot of people, to those who build and fly them competitively, they are complex creations that vary greatly in terms of paper used, geometry and weight. It all depends on the end goal of the designer. For their particular paper plane, the team decided to use CX22 100GSM, which is one of the highest quality 100GSM papers in the world, according to Shin Moo Joon. It was the same type of paper used by Ayoob and Collins for their world record attempt in 2012. Now that they’ve broken the world record, the three paper plane enthusiasts have their sights set on bigger things. They are confident that their creations can fly over 80 metres, provided they can find a more spacious indoor venue, and they are also considering tackling the record for “longest flying paper aircraft (duration)”, set by Takuo Toda of Japan (29.2 seconds). 28．Which has the least impact on paper plane’s performance? A．The player’s arm strength. B．The paper plane’s form. C．The designer’s competence. D．The quality of the paper. 29．What do we know about Chee Yie Jian? A．He and Shin Moo Joon are from the same country. B．He had never met his teammates before the game. C．He didn’t witness his partner setting the record. D．He is better at the art of folding paper planes. 30．Which best describes the process of making paper planes for competitions? A．Pleasing. B．Demanding. C．Competitive. D．Comparative. 31．What contributed to their successfully breaking the record? A．Working as a team. B．Finding an ideal venue. C．Using high-quality paper. D．Setting clear goals. 【答案】28．A 29．C 30．B 31．A 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。主要介绍了Kim Kyu Tae及其团队在2022年4月16日于韩国大邱打破纸飞机飞行距离世界纪录的事件，并介绍了团队成员、纸飞机设计制作过程以及他们未来的目标。 28．细节理解题。根据第二段中“Kim Kyu Tae is one of the best paper plane throwers in the world, but even his rocket-powered arm can do little to break world records if the design of the plane and the build quality are lacking. (Kim Kyu Tae是世界上最好的纸飞机投掷者之一，但如果飞机的设计和制作质量不佳，即使他拥有火箭般强劲的手臂，也很难打破世界纪录。)”可知，纸飞机的性能主要取决于飞机的设计、制作质量以及纸张的质量，而投掷者的手臂力量虽然重要，但相比之下影响较小。故选A项。 29．细节理解题。根据第二段中“Interestingly, Chee, who comes from Malaysia, wasn’t present in Daegu for the record-breaking event, and he has never even met his two teammates in person before. (有趣的是，来自马来西亚的Chee并没有出席在大邱举行的破纪录活动，而且他以前从未见过他的两位队友。)”可知，Chee Yie Jian并没有亲眼见证他的搭档创造纪录。故选C项。 30．推理判断题。根据第三段中“While paper planes are considered mere toys by a lot of people, to those who build and fly them competitively, they are complex creations that vary greatly in terms of paper used, geometry and weight. (虽然很多人认为纸飞机只是玩具，但对于那些有竞争力地制作和飞行纸飞机的人来说，它们是复杂的创造物，在纸张使用、几何形状和重量方面都有很大的不同。)”可推知，制作用于比赛的纸飞机是一个要求很高的过程。故选B项。 31．推理判断题。根据第二段中“Kim Kyu Tae is one of the best paper plane throwers in the world, but even his rocket-powered arm can do little to break world records if the design of the plane and the build quality are lacking. That’s where his partners, Chee Yie Jian, who designed the plane, and fellow South Korean, Shin Moo Joon, who was tasked with folding the paper, come in. Together, they became an unstoppable force. (Kim Kyu Tae是世界上最好的纸飞机投掷者之一，但如果飞机的设计和制作质量不佳，即使他拥有火箭般强劲的手臂，也很难打破世界纪录。这时，他的合作伙伴就派上用场了，设计飞机的Chee Yie Jian和负责折纸的韩国同胞Shin Moo Joon。他们一起成为了一股不可阻挡的力量。)”可知，他们成功打破纪录的关键在于团队合作。故选A项。 （六）（2025届江西省华大新高考联盟高） A growing number of companies are building humanoid robots, and these mechanical look-alikes are starting to appear in car factories and delivery places. Some businesses even promise robots for home use. Yet one big question still has no answer: Why bother? Why make a robot in a human shape when it could take any imaginable form? The usual answer is that humanoid robots could, in principle, handle any physical jobs a person can. But that “in principle” is doing a lot of heavy lifting. If you’ve watched videos of these robots, you’ll get it — they’re often clumsy, awkward machines. Sure, the technology helping them stand and move has come a long way, but they’re still not as quick or graceful as humans. Meanwhile, robots built for a single job — like an arm shifting goods between conveyor belts (传送带) — are now commonplace. Designed with one purpose, they do it really well, unlike humanoid robots, which aim to do everything but often master nothing. Another argument is that a human shape makes it easier for people to work with or control robots. This holds some water, especially since many of these machines still need skilled human operators. Companies often avoid admitting this, calling it a short-term phase, but the dream of fully independent, AI-powered humanoid robots — ones that match or beat human workers — remains a long shot. For now, what we’ve got are human-shaped shells guided by people behind the scenes. When Elon Musk introduced Tesla’s Optimus robot in 2021, he proudly claimed it could teach, babysit, walk dogs, fetch groceries, or pour drinks. Yet those robots weren’t AI-driven, and each was controlled by a hidden human. Notice a pattern? These tasks—low-wage, service-oriented jobs — suggest that, for now, humanoid robots just mask human effort with a shiny surface. Some remote-controlled robots serve real purposes, like in deep-sea exploration. But those machines aren’t shaped like humans — they look like capsules or small vehicles, and they work just fine. The idea that robots must be human-shaped is a failure of imagination. Yes, humanoid robots look impressive. They remind us of the fantasies in science fictions where machines handle all difficult tasks. But today, they are mostly marketing tools, masking human labor. And a robot that doesn’t truly improve life is missing the point. 8．What does the underlined phrase “holds some water” mean in paragraph 3? A．Provides sufficient evidence. B．Makes much sense. C．Is partly reasonable. D．Is widely accepted. 9．Why does the author mention Tesla’s Optimus robot? A．To prove humanoid robots are better. B．To highlight its impressive technology. C．To show it can replace human workers. D．To suggest it is in the charge of humans. 10．What is the author’s attitude toward humanoid robots? A．Skeptical. B．Optimistic. C．Neutral. D．Cautious. 11．What is the best title for the passage? A．When Humanoid Robots Miss Potential B．How Humanoid Robots Miss Goals C．What Humanoid Robots Lack Now D．Why Humanoid Robots Fall Short 【答案】8．C 9．D 10．A 11．D 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讨论了人形机器人存在的问题及缺陷。 8．词句猜测题。根据第三段中“Another argument is that a human shape makes it easier for people to work with or control robots.(另一种观点认为，人类的形态使人们更容易与机器人合作或控制机器人) ”以及划线单词所在的句子“especially since many of these machines still need skilled human operators.(尤其是考虑到许多这样的机器仍然需要熟练的人类操作员)”可知，另一种观点认为，人类的外形让人们更容易与机器人合作或控制机器人，特别是考虑到许多这样的机器仍然需要熟练的人类操作员，这有一定道理，因此，划线短语“holds some water”意思是“有一定道理”。故选C。 9．推理判断题。根据第三段中“When Elon Musk introduced Tesla’s Optimus robot in 2021, he proudly claimed it could teach, babysit, walk dogs, fetch groceries, or pour drinks. Yet those robots weren’t AI-driven, and each was controlled by a hidden human.(2021年，当埃隆·马斯克介绍特斯拉的Optimus机器人时，他自豪地宣称，它可以教学、照顾孩子、遛狗、取杂货或倒饮料。然而，这些机器人并不是人工智能驱动的，每个机器人都由一个隐藏的人控制)”可推知，作者提到特斯拉的Optimus机器人是为了表明它是由人类控制的。故选D。 10．推理判断题。根据最后一段“Yes, humanoid robots look impressive. They remind us of the fantasies in science fictions where machines handle all difficult tasks. But today, they are mostly marketing tools, masking human labor. And a robot that doesn’t truly improve life is missing the point.(是的，人形机器人看起来令人印象深刻。它们让我们想起科幻小说中的幻想，机器可以处理所有困难的任务。但在今天，它们大多是营销工具，掩盖了人类的劳动。一个不能真正改善生活的机器人是没有意义的)”可推知，作者对人形机器人持怀疑态度。故选A。 11．主旨大意题。根据第一段“A growing number of companies are building humanoid robots, and these mechanical look-alikes are starting to appear in car factories and delivery places. Some businesses even promise robots for home use. Yet one big question still has no answer: Why bother? Why make a robot in a human shape when it could take any imaginable form?(越来越多的公司正在制造人形机器人，这些机械外观相似的机器人开始出现在汽车工厂和送货地点。一些企业甚至承诺将机器人用于家庭。然而，一个大问题仍然没有答案：为什么要费心呢？既然机器人可以采取任何想象的形式，为什么还要把它做成人的形状呢？)”以及结合全文可知，本文主要讨论了人形机器人虽然看起来令人印象深刻，但目前大多只是营销工具，掩盖了人类的劳动，并没有真正改善生活。文章分析了人们制造人形机器人的原因，并指出其存在的问题。可知，D选项“为什么人形机器人达不到预期”最符合文章标题。故选D。 （七）（2025届福建省名校联盟） Street artist Banksy has caught attention this summer with a striking series of artworks across London. The pieces, all featuring animals, have appeared in various public spaces, leaving both locals and visitors surprised and curious. While Banksy’s true identity remains unknown, he has used social media to share these works, further strengthening his image as an artist whose art often tackles social issues. The recent series includes a range of animal-themed images, such as a black goat on an industrial building, two elephants seemingly talking through windows, monkeys swinging across a bridge, and a wolf painted on a satellite dish. These works have appeared in different areas of London and sparked much discussion, with many wondering about their meaning. Some critics believe the series may be a comment on the U. K., suggesting that humanity might eventually destroy itself, allowing nature to take over the city. Others have pointed out the artist’s ongoing concerns with environmental and animal welfare issues. Banksy’s art is known for mixing humor with deeper social messages. While his pieces often make people laugh and grab attention, they also encourage viewers to think critically about the world around them. Art dealers say that, despite his anti-establishment themes, his work has strong commercial value, which makes it even more attractive. His ability to challenge the traditional art world while appealing to both collectors and the public has only increased his reputation as a global cultural figure. One key reason for Banksy’s continued success is his ability to stay anonymous (匿名). His hidden identity allows him to share bold opinions without the criticism. This mystery, along with his reputation for charity work, has helped keep his appeal strong. Through his latest animal-themed series, Banksy highlights important issues like animal rights and environmental concerns while encouraging the public to think more deeply about society, art, and activism. 4．What can we know about Banksy from paragraph 1? A．His reputation is built offline. B．His works are privately collected. C．His art centers around social issues. D．His pieces have caught global attention. 5．What is a possible interpretation of Banksy’s recent works? A．They indicate the fight for human rights. B．They reflect the dominance of technology. C．They show the development of modern art. D．They symbolize the collapse of civilization. 6．Which of the following best describes Banksy? A．Humorous and innovative. B．Conventional and humble. C．Curious and diligent. D．Patient and determined. 7．Why might Banksy maintain anonymity? A．To protect his own privacy. B．To avoid primary legal issues. C．To boost the mystery in his art. D．To share personal views risk-free. 【答案】4．C 5．D 6．A 7．D 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了街头艺术家Banksy通过一系列动物主题的艺术作品引发公众对社会和环境问题的思考。 4．推理判断题。根据第一段的“While Banksy’s true identity remains unknown, he has used social media to share these works, further strengthening his image as an artist whose art often tackles social issues.(虽然Banksy的真实身份仍然未知，但他利用社交媒体分享这些作品，进一步树立了他作为经常处理社会问题的艺术家的形象)”可推知，我们能够在第一段了解到Banksy的艺术是围绕社会问题展开。故选C。 5．细节理解题。根据第二段的“Some critics believe the series may be a comment on the U. K., suggesting that humanity might eventually destroy itself, allowing nature to take over the city. Others have pointed out the artist’s ongoing concerns with environmental and animal welfare issues.(一些评论家认为这一系列作品可能是对英国的评论，暗示人类最终可能会自我毁灭，从而让大自然接管城市。另一些人则指出，这位艺术家一直在关注环境和动物福利问题)”可知，一些评论家认为这一系列暗示人类最终可能会自我毁灭，让大自然接管城市，所以，Banksy的近期作品可能象征着文明的崩溃。故选D。 6．推理判断题。根据第三段的“Banksy’s art is known for mixing humor with deeper social messages.(Banksy的艺术以将幽默与更深层的社会寓意相结合而闻名)”可知，Banksy的艺术以糅合幽默和深刻的社会信息而闻名，由此可推知，他是一个幽默且有创新精神的人。故选A。 7．细节理解题。根据最后一段的“One key reason for Banksy’s continued success is his ability to stay anonymous (匿名). His hidden identity allows him to share bold opinions without the criticism.(Banksy能够持续成功的一个关键原因是他保持匿名的能力。他隐藏的身份使他能够发表大胆的言论而不受批评)”可知，Banksy保持匿名可能是为了无风险地分享个人观点。故选D。 （八）（2025届福建省泉州市四校联考） The birth of a male white-tailed eagle signals the success of the Roy Dennis Wildlife Foundation (RDWF) and Forestry England project to return these iconic birds to their original widespread locations along the southern coast of England. The last time a white-tailed eagle chick grew in England, Mozart was working on his opera Idomeneo in Germany For two centuries these amazing birds were missing from most of the UK, having been wiped out by human persecution by the early 20th century. In 2020, the parents of the landmark bird were translocated from the Outer Hebrides and north-west Sutherland in Scotland to the Isle of Wight. This is an area with plentiful food to sustain them. It is also a location from which the birds could spread out to cliffs, lakes and forests. Female G405 and male G471 were two of 25 eagles (16 are still alive) released by the RDWF and Forestry England as part of the ongoing project. And they are one of three pairs to have now established breeding territories in the south of England. The chick hatched earlier this summer at a nest on private land, the exact location of which is being kept a secret to ensure the welfare of the young bird. “This is a very special moment for everyone who has worked on, supported and followed this ground-breaking project,” Roy Dennis says, founder of the RDWF. “Restoring a breeding population in southern England, where the species was once widespread, has been our ultimate goal. Seeing the first pair reach this stage is truly incredible.” The young white-tailed eagle has now been ringed and fitted with a satellite tag (标签) so that its progress can be tracked. A further release of young white-tailed eagles is planned for late summer from the project team’s base on the Isle of Wight. 8．What is the author’s purpose in mentioning Mozart in paragraph 1? A．To admire the musician’s great works. B．To celebrate the birth of the white-tailed eagle. C．To compare the situations of England and Germany. D．To emphasize white-tailed eagles’ centuries-long absence. 9．Which word can replace the underlined word “persecution” in paragraph 2? A．Hunt. B．Exploration. C．Disturbance. D．Training. 10．Why is the accurate position of the chick kept secret? A．For privacy. B．For safety. C．For territory. D．For support. 11．Which may be a suitable title for the text? A．A Splendid Bird B．A Successful Wildlife Project C．Milestone for White-tailed Eagles D．Restoring a Breeding Population 【答案】8．D 9．A 10．B 11．C 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要介绍了一只雄性白尾鹰的出生是恢复英国白尾鹰繁殖的里程碑。 8．推理判断题。根据第一段“The last time a white-tailed eagle chick grew in England, Mozart was working on his opera Idomeneo in Germany.(上一次白尾鹰雏鸟在英国长大时，莫扎特正在德国创作他的歌剧Idomeneo)”可推知，作者在第一段中提到Mozart是为了强调白尾鹰几个世纪之久的缺席。故选D。 9．词义猜测题。根据第二段“... were missing from most of the UK, having been wiped out by human(……在英国大部分地区都消失了，因人类的……而灭绝)”可推知，此处指这种鸟类因人类的猎杀而消失，画线词与A 项意思相近。故选A。 10．细节理解题。根据第五段“The chick hatched earlier this summer at a nest on private land, the exact location of which is being kept a secret to ensure the welfare of the young bird.(今年夏天早些时候，这只雏鸟在私人土地上的一个鸟巢里孵化出来，为了确保雏鸟的健康，鸟巢的确切位置一直保密)”可知，将雏鹰的准确位置保密是为了确保其安全。故选B。 11．主旨大意题。根据第一段“The birth of a male white-tailed eagle signals the success of the Roy Dennis Wildlife Foundation (RDWF) and Forestry England project to return these iconic birds to their original widespread locations along the southern coast of England.(一只雄性白尾鹰的诞生标志着罗伊丹尼斯野生动物基金会(RDWF)和英格兰林业项目的成功，该项目将这些标志性的鸟类送回了它们原来在英格兰南部海岸的广泛分布的地方)”以及第六段“This is a very special moment(这是一个非常特殊的时刻)”可知，文章主要介绍了一只雄性白尾鹰的出生是恢复英国白尾鹰繁殖的里程碑。C项“白尾鹰的里程碑”最适合作文章标题。故选C。 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
