I could feel her chest shaking as she tried not to cry but failed. For all of my twenty-four years, my mum had been supportive.Strength and protection had always flowed from her to me.Now I knew it would have to flow the other way. Mum didn’t stay down for long. After the shock of breast cancer, she armed herself with a notebook and a pen and a thousand questions for the doctors. She took notes on white blood cell counts and medications （药物） with long names as though she had been studying for entrance exams into medical school.“The not-knowing is the worst,” she said. The operation was successful. The chemo （化疗） was the harder part. I went with Mum to every chemo treatment. She rarely complained, though her hair was gone and her toenails and fingernails fell out one by one. She joked that she could save money on nail polish and put it towards the doctor bills, even though she never wore nail polish.“Cancer can take my hair, my nails, my health, my very life. But it can’t take my smile,” Mum said. 刷阅读理解 23 Mum learnt to share her fears with me, and that formed an even deeper bond between us. Yet I was certain there were fears she didn’t share because she was still protecting me—worries she only shared with Dad. Even in the darkest hours, she would just joke about the cancer. Mum always said, “When you look your greatest fear in the eye and laugh at it, you take away some of its power.” Mum was one of the lucky ones. She did beat her cancer, though not without scars. From her, I’ve learnt I may not get to choose what I face, but I do get to choose how I face it. 【语篇导读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者的妈妈在抗癌过程中保持积极乐观的人生态度，并对作者产生重大影响的故事。 刷阅读理解 1.What does the underlined sentence in paragraph 2 mean?( ) B A.There were other ways to treat cancer. B.I should be the one being there for Mum. C.Mum had to stay stronger to beat cancer. D.Knowledge of cancer would be helpful. 解析 词义猜测题。根据第二段中的“Strength and protection had always flowed from her to me.”可知，之前总是妈妈给予作者力量和保护，现在妈妈得癌症了，所以要反过来，轮到作者陪在妈妈身边，给予妈妈力量和保护，由此可猜测，画线句子表示“我应该是那个陪在妈妈身边的人”。 刷阅读理解 25 2.Which of the following words can best describe Mum?( ) A A.Optimistic and determined. B.Considerate and ambitious. C.Humorous and generous. D.Caring and knowledgeable. 解析 推理判断题。根据第四段中的She rarely complained、She joked、But it can’t take my smile和倒数第二段中的“Even in the darkest hours, she would just joke about the cancer.”可知，妈妈面对疾病很乐观；根据第三段中的“She took notes on white blood cell counts and medications with long names as though she had been studying for entrance exams into medical school.”和最后一段中的“She did beat her cancer, though not without scars.”可知，妈妈有战胜病魔的坚定决心。 刷阅读理解 26 3.Why didn’t Mum share all the fears with the author?( ) C A.She only shared with Dad. B.She would just joke about the cancer. C.She wanted to protect the author. D.She formed a deeper bond with the author. 解析 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“Yet I was certain there were fears she didn’t share because she was still protecting me—worries she only shared with Dad.”可知，妈妈没有和作者分享所有的恐惧是为了保护作者。 刷阅读理解 27 4.What lesson did the author learn from Mum?( ) D A.Luck counts in beating diseases. B.Complaint does no good to one’s health. C.Sharing feelings helps reduce sufferings a lot. D.Positive attitudes get one through hardship. 解析 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的“When you look your greatest fear in the eye and laugh at it, you take away some of its power.”和最后一段中的“From her, I’ve learnt I may not get to choose what I face, but I do get to choose how I face it.”可知，作者从妈妈身上学到了一个道理：积极的态度使人渡过难关。 刷阅读理解 28 词汇加油站 核心词汇 supportive adj.给予帮助的；支持的 熟词生义 down 熟义：adv.& prep.向下；往下 生义：adj.悲哀的；沮丧的；情绪低落的 刷阅读理解 29 B Personal growth doesn’t necessarily only happen when the conditions are perfect. Seeds tend to develop only when conditions are right. A seed will remain dormant （休眠的） until moisture （湿度） and temperature are favourable for growth. Unfortunately, as humans, we don’t always have the luxury of growing when conditions are just right. Sometimes you must cultivate personal growth and flower where you’re planted, often in spite of external circumstances. For much of my life, I let external circumstances determine my happiness. If things weren’t going well, then I wasn’t well. I told myself that I would be happier if conditions were right. With this mindset, I gave myself permission to stay emotionally dormant. I was waiting for things around me to change before I would do the work to become a better version of myself. In other words, I made my personal growth conditional on external circumstances. 刷阅读理解 30 The problem with waiting for change outside of yourself is that you might have to wait a very long time, maybe even forever. And if you stay dormant while waiting, you aren’t growing. You’re simply stuck in place. You certainly aren’t becoming the better version of yourself that you want to be. If you want to engage in personal growth, like planting seeds, you have to do some work to make it happen. You can’t wait around for everything to fall into place. Start with pulling up your emotional weeds. Examine yourself and remove the negative thoughts and behaviours that are holding you back.Then, work on the foundation that you have. Practise positive life habits that build your self-respect and happiness. Personal growth is something you can struggle for. It may not come naturally, but when you develop this mindset, you will flower no matter where you’re planted. 【语篇导读】本文是一篇议论文。文章论述了个人成长并不仅仅在条件完美的情况下发生。即使环境不完美，也必须让自己不断成长。我们可以通过培养自己来实现个人成长，否则我们只会一直待在原地等待外部环境的改变。重点是，个人成长是可以争取的，需要付出努力。 刷阅读理解 31 1.What is the author’s purpose in writing the first paragraph?( ) A A.To stress the importance of personal effort in growth. B.To complain about the lack of perfect conditions. C.To highlight the influence of external circumstances. D.To compare human development and seed growth. 解析 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Unfortunately, as humans, we don’t always have the luxury of growing when conditions are just right.Sometimes you must cultivate personal growth and flower where you’re planted, often in spite of external circumstances.”可知，作者认为我们并不总能在条件适合的时候成长，尽管外部环境不完美，我们可以通过培养自己来努力实现个人成长。由此可知，作者在第一段中强调了个人努力在成长中的重要性。故选A项。 刷阅读理解 32 2.Which of the following affected the author’s growth most in the past?( ) B A.Personal experiences.

He didn’t look like any doctor I’d ever known. He never yelled at us for playing in his yard. I remember him as someone who was a lot nicer. When Dr Gibbs wasn’t saving lives, he was planting trees. His house sat on ten acres, and his life’s goal was to make it a forest. The good doctor had some interesting theories concerning plant care and growth. He never watered his new trees, which flew in the face of conventional wisdom. Once I asked why. He said that watering plants spoiled them so that each successive tree generation would grow weaker and weaker. So you have to make things rough for them and weed out （淘汰） the weaker trees early on. He talked about how watering trees made for shallow roots, and how trees that weren’t watered had to grow deep roots in search of moisture （水分）.I took his behaviour to mean that deep roots were to be treasured. 刷阅读理解 64 So he never watered his trees. He would plant an oak and, instead of watering it every morning, he’d beat it with a rolled-up newspaper. Smack! Slap! Pow! I asked him why he did that, and he said it was to get the tree’s attention. Dr Gibbs passed away a couple of years after I left home. Every now and again, I walked by his house and looked at the trees that I’d watched him plant some twenty-five years ago. They’re extremely tall, big and robust.However, the trees in my garden trembled in a cold wind although I had taken care of them for several years. Adversity （逆境） and suffering seemed to benefit these trees of Dr Gibbs in ways comfort and ease never could. Every night before I go to bed, I check on my two sons. I stand over them and watch their little bodies, the rising and falling of life within. I often hope that their lives will be easy. But I think it’s time to change my wish because now I know my children are going to encounter hardship. 刷阅读理解 【语篇导读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者的医生邻居不同寻常的种树理论，如不给树浇水、击打树等，他种下的树最后都长得非常高大强壮，并经得起风吹雨打。作者由此感悟到逆境会给人带来益处。 刷阅读理解 66 1.What can we know according to Dr Gibbs’ theories?( ) B A.Trees will die soon if they are lacking in care. B.Trees will become weaker if they are watered. C.Trees will grow better if they are weeded out. D.Trees will bear fruit if they are beaten. 解析 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“He said that watering plants spoiled them so that each successive tree generation would grow weaker and weaker.”可知，根据吉布斯医生的理论，如果给树木浇水，它们会变得更弱。故选B项。 刷阅读理解 67 2.What does the underlined word “robust” in paragraph 6 most probably mean?( ) A A.Strong. B.Strange. C.Deep. D.Old. 解析 词义猜测题。根据上文“They’re extremely tall, big”和下文“However, the trees in my garden trembled in a cold wind although I had taken care of them for several years.”可知，通过对比作者发现，自己的树经过照料却在寒风中颤抖，而邻居家的树长得十分高大，由此可推测robust也指的是树木的优点，表示树更强壮，故画线词表示“强壮的”。故选A项。 刷阅读理解 68 方法总结根据上下文情境和语境猜测词义 有些词义猜测题找不到标志线索，但任何一篇文章中的句子在内容上都不是绝对孤立的，都与句子所在的段落及整篇文章有关。这时可以利用上下文语境和提供的情景线索进行合乎逻辑的综合分析，进而推测词义。有时作者在阐述某人、某物或某一现象的特点时，先是一般地或概括性地说一下，然后再作具体的说明或解释；或者反过来，先作具体的阐述，然后再进行归纳、总结。如果读者能抓住作者的思路，就能从那些具体说明、解释或归纳中找出猜词的线索来。 刷阅读理解 69 3.What is the author’s wish for his two sons now?( ) C A.To fly higher and touch the sky. B.To meet people like Dr Gibbs. C.To be strong during meeting difficulties. D.To lead a life of comfort and ease. 解析 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段内容和最后一段中的“I often hope that their lives will be easy.But I think it’s time to change my wish because now I know my children are going to encounter hardship.”可知，作者改变了之前对孩子们的祝愿，知道他们以后终会遇到困难，所以可推知现在作者希望孩子们能在遇到困难时坚强。故选C项。 刷阅读理解 70 4.Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?( ) B A.A Nice Doctor B.The Deep Roots C.Adversity and Suffering D.My Childhood Memory 解析 主旨大意题。分析全文内容可知，文章主要讲述了作者的医生邻居不同寻常的种树理论，如不给树浇水等，他种的树最后长得非常高大强壮，并经得起风吹雨打，因为树的根扎得非常深，作者由此想到自己的孩子们以后将会遇到困难，所以希望孩子们能像大树一样深深扎根在泥土里，能经得起风雨的洗礼。故B项（“深深的根”）适合作为文章最佳标题。故选B项。 刷阅读理解 71 B Between adolescence and adulthood, you go through a lot of changes—jobs, regrettable haircuts and relationships that come and go. But as you grow older, does your personality change? People tend to think of personality as fixed. But according to psychologists, personality is a developmental phenomenon. That’s not to say that you’re a different person each day you wake up. In the short term, change can be nearly unnoticeable and our personality is actually stable.That pattern of consistency begins around age 3, and perhaps even earlier. Psychologists study children’s temperament—the intensity of a person’s reactions to the world. Earlier temperament seems to affect later life experience. For example, a 1995 study found children who were shyer and more withdrawn tended to grow into unhappier teenagers. But studies have found that personality tends to get “better” over time. Psychologists call it “the maturity principle”. People become more extroverted （外向的）, emotionally stable, agreeable and conscientious （细心负责的） as they grow older. 刷阅读理解 72 Some individuals might change less than others, but in general, the maturity principle applies to everyone. That makes personality change even harder to recognise in ourselves—our personality compared with that of our peers doesn’t change as much as our overall change in personality, because everyone else is changing right along with us. So why do we change so much? Evidence suggests it’s not dramatic life events, such as marriage, the birth of a child or loss of a loved one. Some psychologists actually suggest these events reinforce （加强） your personality as you bring your characteristics with you to that particular situation. Instead, changing expectations placed on us—as we adjust to university, the workplace, starting a family—slowly shapes who we are. Over time you are asked in many contexts across life to do things a bit differently. So we adapt. 【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一个人的性格并不是一成不变的，而是缓慢变化的。 刷阅读理解 73 1.Which word best characterises the main feature of personality that the author stressed?( ) C A.Unnoticeable. B.Fixed.

D.Diverse. 解析 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“But according to psychologists, personality is a developmental phenomenon.”可知，最能体现作者所强调的人格特征是developmental（发展的）。故选C项。 刷阅读理解 74 2.What can we learn from the text?( ) B A.Personality is an unchangeable thing that you’re stuck with and can’t get over. B.Children’s temperament has an influence on their adolescence. C.Changes in personality can’t become obvious in the long term. D.Not everyone tends to become better in personality when he or she grows older. 解析 细节理解题。根据第二段最后两句可知，早期的性情会影响一个人后来的生活经历。例如，1995年的一项研究发现比较害羞和内向的孩子在青少年时期往往会感到不快乐。由此可知，孩子的性格会影响他们的青春期。故选B项。 刷阅读理解 75 3.What makes us change so much in personality?( ) D A.Our daily life. B.The temperament in our childhood. C.Major life events. D.The expectations from the surrounding environment. 解析 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段内容可知，生活中激动人心的事件并不是让性格变化如此之大的原因；根据最后一段第一句可知，周围的人对我们不断变化的期望使我们的性格变化大。故选D项。 刷阅读理解 76 4.What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?( ) B A.To explain a person’s future can be decided by his childhood. B.To show a person’s personality is always changing, but slowly. C.To prove dramatic life events strengthen a person’s personality. D.To inspire one not to change his or her own personality. 解析 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“But as you grow older, does your personality change?”和第二段内容可知，人的性格是不断发展变化的，但短期内这种变化几乎是不可察觉的。紧接着介绍根据“成熟度原则”，一个人的性格会变好，并介绍了性格变化大的原因。由此可知，作者通过文章向读者表明了一个人的性格是在缓慢变化的。故选B项。 刷阅读理解 77 词汇加油站 核心词汇 stable adj.稳定的 进阶词汇 temperament n.性格；秉性 刷阅读理解 78 ［湖北云学联盟2025高二期中］In a small village at the foot of a towering mountain lived a young woman named Maya.

However, Susan Goldin-Meadow, author of the book Thinking with Your Hands, has a rather different view. “Almost everyone gestures, not just Italians,” she laughs.“Conference interpreters gesture in their little rooms, though no one is looking at them. Even people born blind gesture when they speak, including to each other. In the TV series, The Crown, Lady Diana is warned that her hands may reveal her real emotions, which could be dangerous and that they have to be tied together so she can learn to speak without gesturing.” 刷阅读理解 87 The gesture under discussion here is the so-called “co-speech gesture”.It is much more abstract （抽象的） than such symbolic gestures like a finger over the lips for “Silence!” or giving a thumbs-up to mean “Great!”.Like words, such symbolic gestures are fixed within cultures （but vary between them）.Instead, gestures that accompany speech are another channel of information and emotion. For example, experimental subjects are asked to watch a film in which a cat runs, but they are told to lie and say it jumped. They may do so in words—while their hands will make a running movement. The co-speech gesture is not sign languages, either. Sign languages have clearly defined words and grammar and differ from place to place just as spoken ones do. The co-speech gestures have great potential for practical applications. For example, teachers are encouraged both to use co-speech gestures themselves and to observe those their students make. Some students who fail at a tricky mathematics problem may gesture in a way that indicates they are on the edge of getting it; they should be taught differently from the ones whose gestures suggest that they are entirely at sea. 刷阅读理解 88 “Children with language delays caused by brain injuries at or around birth are likely to catch up verbally by the age of about 30 months, if they gesture as much as their peers. Those who gesture less are more likely to need early intervention,” Susan Goldin-Meadow adds.“Co-speech gesture is not just about a lack of control. It is about thinking and communication, and is an aid to both.” 【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了语伴手势及其用途。 刷阅读理解 89 1.What does Susan Goldin-Meadow really want to tell us in paragraph 2?( ) D A.Lady Diana is probably an emotional woman. B.Italians are very talkative and gesture too much. C.It is unnatural for the blind to gesture to each other. D.Co-speech gestures are used by all of us unknowingly. 解析 推理判断题。根据第二段内容，尤其是“Almost everyone gestures, not just Italians”可知，苏珊·戈尔丁-梅多表示几乎所有人都会做手势动作，并列举了会议口译员、盲人和影视剧中的人物都会在说话时不由自主地做手势的例子，因此苏珊·戈尔丁-梅多想告诉人们，语伴手势是人类下意识做出的动作，而且所有人都会用。故选D项。 刷阅读理解 90 2.What can we say about sign languages?( ) C A.They are as abstract as co-speech gestures. B.They are usually learnt by human beings naturally. C.They have distinctly structured words and grammar. D.They vary from culture to culture and person to person. 解析 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“The co-speech gesture is not sign languages, either.Sign languages have clearly defined words and grammar and differ from place to place just as spoken ones do.”可知，手语有明确定义的单词和语法。故选C项。 刷阅读理解 91 3.What does the author suggest teachers do in the passage?( ) C A.Put enough trust in students. B.Encourage students to tell the truth. C.Observe their students’ gestures carefully. D.Solve as many tricky problems as possible. 解析 细节理解题。根据第四段中的teachers are encouraged both to use co-speech gestures themselves and to observe those their students make和“Some students who fail at a tricky mathematics problem… whose gestures suggest that they are entirely at sea.”可知，作者建议教师观察学生的手势来了解他们对知识的理解程度，因材施教。故选C项。 刷阅读理解 92 4.What is the main idea of this passage?( ) A A.Co-speech gestures play a vital part in communication. B.Symbolic gestures differ greatly from co-speech gestures. C.Co-speech gestures are more difficult than sign languages. D.Symbolic gestures have great potential for practical applications. 解析 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其根据最后一段中的“Co-speech gesture is not just about a lack of control.It is about thinking and communication, and is an aid to both.”可知，本文主要介绍了语伴手势，并说明了其普遍性及在交流中的重要作用。故选A项。 刷阅读理解 93 文本解构 刷阅读理解 94 B ［广东执信中学2024高二期中］The success of many North American crops partly depends on ground beetles, small insects that eat pests and weed seeds which could otherwise damage crops. But a new study by researchers in the US and Canada suggests not all of the nearly 2,000 species of ground beetles found in North America will survive climate change. Some could decline. And that could have a far-reaching impact on agriculture, forestry, and conservation. By studying the data on 136 different ground beetle species across continental North America, Puerto Rico and Hawaii, the researchers found that a species’ chance of success in a changing climate depends on several important factors, such as its habitat preference, body size, and whether it flies, climbs or runs. 刷阅读理解 95 “We found that less mobile, nonflying ground beetles, which are critical pest control agents, are more likely to decline over time in a warmer, drier climate,” said Tong Qiu, who led the study.“That means you’re going to have more pests that can impact agricultural and forest ecosystems.” But there is reason for hope, Qiu added, because the analysis also showed that habitat conservation can lessen these effects and reverse the trends in some areas. “We hope conservation biologists will use the information and the online map that we created to better manage habitats for insects in general. Ground beetles are very beneficial to ecosystems, but they’re largely invisible to the average person. In this paper we’re showing the broad impacts they have on whole communities in forest and agricultural ecosystems,” said Qiu. 刷阅读理解 96 The researchers used ground beetle count data from the National Science Foundation’s National Ecological Observatory Network （NEON） and from 11 previously published studies to measure and map the beetles’ distribution across North America. Habitat information, such as the location of gaps in forest canopies （树冠） and the density of plants on the forest floor, was obtained by using NEON’s imaging instruments to create detailed three-dimensional images of landscapes. The researchers then entered the collected data into a statistical model to simulate （模拟） climate change to study how the ground beetles would respond. 【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一项新的研究表明，在北美发现的能够保护农作物的近2,000种步甲科昆虫中，有一些不适应气候变化，数量可能减少。 刷阅读理解 97 1.What does the new study in North America show?( ) B A.Pests could destroy many North American crops.

D.Some ground beetles will destroy crops in a warmer climate. 解析 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“But a new study by researchers in the US and Canada suggests not all of the nearly 2,000 species of ground beetles found in North America will survive climate change.Some could decline.”可知，北美的这项新研究表明，一些步甲科昆虫将无法在气候变化中生存。 刷阅读理解 98 2.What does Tong Qiu intend to convey in paragraphs 3 and 4?( ) D A.There is no way to stop the decline of ground beetles. B.Critical pests are more adaptable in a warmer, drier climate. C.Ground beetles will become less mobile in a warmer climate. D.The importance of ground beetles should be widely recognised. 解析 推理判断题。根据第三段内容可知，气候变化会影响步甲科昆虫，而这种昆虫的减少会影响农业和森林生态系统。再根据第四段中的“Ground beetles are very beneficial to ecosystems, but they’re largely invisible to the average person.In this paper we’re showing the broad impacts they have on whole communities in forest and agricultural ecosystems”可知，步甲科昆虫对生态系统非常有益，但普通人基本上看不到它们。邱桐（音译）和其他研究人员在论文中展示了它们对森林和农业生态系统中整个群落的广泛影响。由此可推知，他想表达的是，步甲科昆虫的重要性应该得到广泛的认识。 刷阅读理解 99 3.How did the research team carry out the study?( ) A A.By analysing data. B.By assessing conditions. C.By doing field research. D.By studying documents. 解析 细节理解题。根据第二段中的By studying the data on 136 different ground beetle species以及最后一段中的The researchers used ground beetle count data和“The researchers then entered the collected data into a statistical model to simulate climate change to study how the ground beetles would respond.”可知，研究小组是通过分析数据展开这项研究的。 刷阅读理解 100 4.What is the best title for the passage?( ) B A.North American Agriculture Crops at Risk B.Crop-Saving Beetles Under Climate Threats C.Catastrophic Climate Change on the Way D.Beetles’ Reaction to Simulated Climate Change 解析 主旨大意题。通读全文可知，本文主要介绍了北美步甲科昆虫能够抑制害虫、保护农作物，而随着气候变化，一些品种的步甲科昆虫数量正在减少，为了保护这些步甲科昆虫，研究人员开展了一系列相关的研究。结合选项可知，B项（拯救农作物的步甲科昆虫面临气候威胁）最适合作为本文的标题。 刷阅读理解 101 长难句分析 刷阅读理解 102 ［吉林省名校联盟2025高二联考］Too much social media can be bad for your health.
