[对应学生用书P484] (限时：35分钟) Ⅰ.阅读理解 A (2025·山西太原检测)Handwriting is a fine motor skill that none of us is born with; it needs to be taught and practiced.It is also a skill that benefits us by stimulating our brain: We remember information better when we write it down by hand，research shows. But for many of us，handwriting can feel difficult as we turn to smartphones，other devices and even robots for many of our hand tasks.The problem isn't only that we're less likely to use handwriting.Technology has changed the way we use our hands.The more time we spend on our devices，the greater the probability of problems with our hands and wrists，such as pain，weakness and nerve changes. “The hand­brain connection is stronger when we write something by hand instead of typing it，” said Paula Heinricher，an occupational therapist.“Although we might be able to take more notes on a keyboard than by hand，there's research that shows when you write by hand，there is a deeper brain connection and a deeper understanding，so you remember that information longer.” The ability to write quickly and legibly (易辨认地) also has a critical link with academic performance.A 2013 study found that children who had good handwriting skills in preschool performed better in reading and math in second grade.And in a 2019 study of 141 first­graders in four schools in Italy，children who were taught handwriting developed better reading and writing skills compared with a control group. But devices aren't the only one to blame.In general，we're not engaging in as many fine motor activities as in the past.With key less entry，for instance，many of us no longer turn a key to unlock our car or the front door; instead，we push a button or tap out a code.So handwriting，a fine motor activity，is becoming a little less used in daily life.However，even as we continue to use technology and devices，we can enhance our handwriting muscles with a few strategies. [语篇解读]　本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了书写的重要性以及书写与学习之间的关系。 1．What can be learned about handwriting? A．It is a natural ability. B．It is practiced less often. C．It has lost its appeal. D．It causes nerve changes. 解析　B　细节理解题。根据文章第二段中“But for many of us，handwriting can feel difficult as we turn to smartphones，other devices and even robots for many of our hand tasks.The problem isn't only that we're less likely to use handwriting.Technology has changed the way we use our hands.”以及最后一段中“So handwriting，a fine motor activity，is becoming a little less used in daily life.”可知，随着我们转向智能手机、其他设备甚至机器人来完成我们的许多手部任务，书写会让人感到困难，在日常生活中书写使用越来越少，导致人们书写练习得更少了。故选B。 2．Which best describes the impact of handwriting according to Paula Heinricher? A．Short­lived. B．Unpredictable. C．Irresistible. D．Far­reaching. 解析　D　推理判断题。根据第三段中“‘The hand­brain connection is stronger when we write something by hand instead of typing it，’ said Paula Heinricher，an occupational therapist.‘Although we might be able to take more notes on a keyboard than by hand，there's research that shows when you write by hand，there is a deeper brain connection and a deeper understanding，so you remember that information longer.’”可知，Paula Heinricher认为书写可以使手脑的联系更强，对所记信息的理解更加深入，记忆时间也更长。由此推知，Paula Heinricher认为，书写的影响深远。故选D。 3．What do the studies in paragraph 4 imply about handwriting? A．It contributes to learning. B．It strengthens students'speaking ability. C．It improves quickly with training. D．It is popular among researchers. 解析　A　推理判断题。通读第四段可知，2013年的研究表明书写好的学前儿童在小学阶段能够在阅读和数学学科取得好成绩；2019年的研究表明学过书写的孩子比对照组的孩子在阅读和写作技巧方面更优秀。由此可知，这两项研究都表明书写能力与学习成绩有着关键的联系，书写有助于学习。故选A。 4．What might the author continue talking about? A．Advancements in science and technology. B．Similar research done by scientists. C．Significance of excellent handwriting. D．Measures for improving handwriting. 解析　D　推理判断题。文章最后一段最后两句“So handwriting，a fine motor activity，is becoming a little less used in daily life.However，even as we continue to use technology and devices，we can enhance our handwriting muscles with a few strategies.”指出，作为一种精细运动的书写，在日常生活中越来越少使用，但是，在我们继续使用科技和设备的同时，可以通过一些策略来增强书写肌肉，提高书写水平；由此可推知，作者接下来很可能会讲述一些提高书写水平的策略。故选D。 B (2024·河北秦皇岛三模)Since the mid­1990s，tourists have paid storm­chasers to take them to places in the American Great Plains where they expect to see tornadoes.Why，a reasonable follow­up question might go，would anyone want to get so close to something so disruptive? These tourists，a study found，characterized their relationship to severe weather as a “passion”，describing their feelings about tornadoes using words like “enjoyment”，“fascination” and “love”．Some people seem spiritually moved by tornadoes—one tourist called the storms “humbling”—but the main motivator seemed to be simple: Twisters are cool. America has many more tornadoes than any other country，and its people have long regarded twisters with a mix of fear，awe and thrilled pleasure.Fast­moving and dramatic，tornadoes have been irresistible parts for popular entertainment.One needn't be an extreme­weather enthusiast，however，to take a brief and far­less dangerous tour: of culture tornadoes have inspired and of the transformation of American society's feelings about these storms from fear to excitement. European colonists in the future United States were fascinated—and sometimes horrified—by their new land's weather.In the Early Republic，the influence of romantic ideas about the terrible and wonderful power of nature became clearer in American tornado culture.Some people began to write about tornadoes in terms of awe，and to produce art that explored the phenomenon's natural beauty，while also moralizing about its meaning.Since the 1930s，American tornadoes have been less deadly: the country has much better early­warning systems，fewer people live in rural areas and tornado activity has largely shifted from the southeast to the thinly­populated Great Plains. Storm­chasing—a scientific，thrill­seeking activity that most Americans found out about via the 1996 blockbuster film Twister，is still incomprehensible to many who don't practice it.“I find it difficult to explain to someone who hasn't chased what forces us to seek pleasure from risk，” wrote Jennifer Henderson，a scholar and crazy storm­chaser，characterizing her feelings while chasing as “a sense of exposure and revelation tightly coupled”． [语篇解读]　本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了在美国受欢迎的一项娱乐项目——追逐龙卷风。 5．What does the underlined word “disruptive” in the first paragraph mean? A．Amazing. B．Ruinous. C．Costly. D．Sensitive. 解析　B　词句猜测题。根据第一段“Since the mid­1990s，tourists have paid storm­chasers to take them to places in the American Great Plains where they expect to see tornadoes.Why，a reasonable follow­up question might go，would anyone want to get so close to something so disruptive？”可知，画线词disruptive修饰tornadoes，根据下文中的“severe weather (恶劣天气)”可推知，画线单词意为“破坏性的”。故选B。 6．What do we learn about tornadoes in America? A．They are small and have a slower moving speed. B．They tend to be less common in American history. C．They have aroused interest in weather tours in America. D．The American people have suffered less damage from them. 解析　C　细节理解题。根据第二段中的“America has many more tornadoes than any other country，and its people have long regarded twisters with a mix of fear，awe and thrilled pleasure.Fast­moving and dramatic，tornadoes have been irresistible parts for popular entertainment.”可知，美国的龙卷风引起了人们对美国天气旅游的兴趣。故选C。 7．Why did the harm of tornadoes in America decrease in paragraph 3? A．The population of America was declining gradually. B．There was no tornado activity in the southeastern America. C．America has made greater progress in natural disaster warning. D．The natural environment in tornado areas has been damaged. 解析　C　细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Since the 1930s，American tornadoes have been less deadly: the country has much better early­warning systems，fewer people live in rural areas and tornado activity has largely shifted from the southeast to the thinly­populated Great Plains.”可知，在美国，龙卷风的危害有所减少是因为美国在自然灾害预警方面取得了更大进展。故选C。 8．What is the best title of the article? A．The thrill of storm­chasing B．The tour of watching tornadoes C.The formation of tornadoes D．A unique phenomenon in nature 解析　A　主旨大意题。根据第一段中的“Since the mid­1990s，tourists have paid storm­chasers to take them to places in the American Great Plains where they expect to see tornadoes.”以及“These tourists，a study found，characterized their relationship to severe weather as a ‘passion’，describing their feelings about tornadoes using words like ‘enjoyment’，‘fascination’ and ‘love’．”可知，本文主要描述了追逐龙卷风的美国人，并分析了游客们为什么会追求这种充满刺激的项目。故选A。 Ⅱ.完形填空 (2025·湖北武汉质量调研)When I was in third grade，my family and I took on an unforgettable trip across the country.It turned out to be more than just a/an 1 journey; it was a journey of discovery into our 2 ．Every day，Dad 3 us with his trusty road map.Mom，the heart of our family，shared folk tales and painted pictures about the upcoming 4 ．We went through diverse 5 from the thick forests to the vast deserts of the West.
