If they aren’t ready, suggest setting up one-to-one meetings with your direct supervisor. Team meetings can also allow team members to share concerns more widely with others. You should make meetings efficient. Research shows that only 50 percent of time spent in meetings is considered a good use of time by attendees.

Create a group of people around you who want to help you succeed.

One strategy is to create some trouble. Set your phone to require a password to unlock rather than immediately open it through facial recognition. If you find yourself pulling out your phone during dinner with friends, at family gatherings, or even when someone is telling you something important, this might be a sign of phone addiction. 39 . That is, when I’m about to meet with friends, I set my phone to “Do Not Disturb (干扰) ” mode or put it on airplane mode.

Whether your garden takes up a corner of your yard, or a corner of a windowsill (窗台), it’s easy to be successful by following a few simple guidelines. 41 Look around your house, yard, or apartment. Think carefully about the space available, as well as the time and effort you want to devote to your project. Plants need soil, sunshine, and water. 42 If you are planting a garden in a corner of your yard, choose a spot that gets lots of morning sun. If you live in an apartment, you might decide to place your container garden on a sunny spot on your balcony or windowsill. Once you have determined the size of your garden, you are ready to choose what to plant. 43 When choosing plants, consider the size and location of your garden and how much sun it will get. Sunflowers need lots of room and sunlight. Other plants do well in the shade (阴凉处). 44 After you have decided on your favorite flowers or vegetables, the next step is to make a budget.

Puzzles come in a huge range of sizes and difficulty levels. For beginners, a 100-piece puzzle is usually a good starting point. 47 Try grouping pieces with the same colors or design because they will probably go in the same area once the puzzle takes shape. 48 Those pieces are easier to find because they have a straight side. Stay patient as you search through and try to make it fit together. You may not find any connecting pieces for ages but then several may suddenly appear. For a real test, puzzles that have 1, 000 pieces or more are a tough task and it’s best to complete them with friends or family if you can. Choosing a scene that interests you, such as a favourite film, sport or location, can help keep you interested and determined to work to the final piece. You can get fun educational puzzles, too. 49 Some of the best places to pick up puzzles are charity shops. They’re often on sale for less than £5. Once you have completed a puzzle, it’s nice to exchange it with a friend. 50 You just upload an image, such as a family scene, and they will make a puzzle from it and post it to you.

Most people like to start by getting the four edges of a puzzle laid out. Passage 3 （24-25高二上·河南郑州一中·期中） Body language of pets is different based on what sort of animal you have chosen as your pet. If you’re unsure of your pet’s body language, consider reading some articles for your specific animal. 51 , as you can even copy some of its movements, expressions and sounds to send your message in a way it understands. When dogs feel stressed out or threatened, their eyes will look larger than normal. If your dog isn’t looking directly at you, but is looking out of the corners of its eyes so that you see a lot of the whites of the eyes, it might be about to have an aggressive outburst. 52 . If your cat looks at you and blinks at you slowly, it’s likely communicating affection. You can do this back at your cat to show your love, too. 53 . If your cat feels threatened, its tail will likely be upright; its back will likely bearched, too. 54 . If your bird’s pupils (瞳孔) enlarge and shrink rapidly, this can be a sign that it’s excited, greatly interested, scared or angry. 55 . Birds will shake their feathers while cleaning themselves; if their feathers remain shaking, however, this could mean they’re unwell, in which case, take them to an animal doctor for a checkup. A. You pet’s health depends on your daily care B. The context is important in telling which emotion it might be C. Birds can be quite expressive through their eyes and feathers D. Once familiar with each other’s body language, cats can play together E. For cats, closing one’s eyes in the presence of another is a way to show trust F. If your dog is feeling aggressive, its wide eyes will be accompanied by a rigid body G. Understanding your pet’s body language will help you to be a better communicator 主题01 人与社会 Passage 1 （24-25高二上·河南许昌·期中） To make science’s stories more concrete and engaging, it’s important to use some effective strategies. Here are four of them. Put people in the story Science’s stories often lack human characters. 56 . Characters can be also people affected by a scientific topic, or interested in learning more about it. Besides, they can be storytellers who are sharing their personal experiences. 57 People often think of science as objective and fair. But science is actually a human practice that continuously involves choices, missteps and biases (偏见) . If you explain science as a course, you can walk people through the sequence of how science is done and why researchers reach certain conclusions. 58 . And they can also stress the reason why people should trust the course of science to provide the most accurate conclusions possible given the available information. Include what people care about Scientific topics are important, but they may not always be the public’s most pressing concerns. In April 2024, a polling company found that “the quality of the environment” was one of the lowest-ranked priorities among people in the US. The stories about the environment could weave in connections to higher-priority topics. 59 . Tell science's stories Scientists, of course, can be science communicators, but everyone can tell science’s stories. When we share information online about health, or talk to friends and family about the weather, we contribute to information that circulates about science topics. 60 . Think about all of a story’s characteristics — character, action, sequence, scope, storyteller and content - and how you might incorporate them into the topic. A. Explain science as a process B. Shoot attractive short science videos C. Scientists themselves can actually become ideal ones D. This practice is to stress why the content is important E. You can tell growth stories of remarkable teenage scientists F. Science communicators can emphasize how science is conducted G. You may as well borrow features from stories to strengthen your message Passage 2 （24-25高二上·河南信高贤岭校区·期中） One of the most important elements of successful job hunting is the job interview. 61 In order to give yourself an edge over others applying for the job you want, it is important to create a solid impression during the job interview. Because what you say during an interview is so important, there are two rules to remember. One is to present yourself in a favourable way and stress your areas of excellence. However, don’t exaggerate (夸张); tell the truth. 62 Notice the interviewer’s interests and relate your comments to them. 63 Don't be afraid to ask for a second interview if you need time to gather information that will be more useful in the second interview. Most interviewers will appreciate your questions and your ability to listen and respond. Each of us has sensitive areas, which could refer to your lack of an academic degree, a long period of unemployment, or lack of work experience if you are entering a new field. 64 If you believe that this area presents a real barrier to a job offer, you could be communicating this doubt to the interviewer. Many times, however, an interviewer will ignore these sensitive areas if you have a confident, positive attitude. The job interview is an important part of the job search because the attitude and impression you project can make the interviewer feel “with you” or “against you”. 65 Interviewers have the intelligence to recognize genuine enthusiasm and interest. A. Answer sensitive questions briefly and positively. B. Show confidence in yourself and your ability to do the job. C. Some people lose job opportunities because of talking too much. D. If unsure of job requirements, ask questions to see if you're qualified. E. Remember that you have the power to create a favourable impression. F. There are thousands of people entering new careers and searching for jobs. G. Second, listen carefully and get involved in what the interviewer is saying. Passage 3 （24-25高二上·河南濮阳·期中） What is the origin of Family History Month? Every human has a history of some sort or another. Usually, that history goes far back beyond ourselves. Every ancestor we have has left his mark on us. 66 . Many people find that there is a certain comfort in knowing where they came from, and that’s why Family History Month was started. How to celebrate Family History Month? Celebrating the history of the family is obviously something that should happen all year round! Try out some of these ideas to get started: * Compile (编纂) a family history It all starts with collecting what people know about their families and compiling it together. 67 . They include documents and records, old photographs, and verbal stories from the still- living members of the family. Those people who are particularly lucky will have had a family member who has started the basics for them. 68 . Today it’s a little easier than it used to be. Websites and organizations are easily found that can help people trace (追溯) their family lines. * 69 Don’t let another day go by without hearing the stories that living family members have to tell about their childhoods and the family history. Whether you visit them in person or arrange for a phone call or video conversation, older family members can be vitally important to keep the family history alive. Ask them to share some stories. It will not only give information but will be good for the relationship and help them to feel needed and loved. Remember to take very good notes or record what they have to say for later generations. * Engage with a genealogy (家谱) website Let someone else do the hard work of finding out all of that family history and background! 70 . Try out the genealogy websites and services, such as FamilySearch, Ancestry and MyHeritage for ideas of where to get started. A. Connect with an older family member B.

Cultural immersion (沉浸) Studying abroad gives you the irreplaceable opportunity to immerse yourself in a new culture. 71 You’ll be able to prove how adaptable you are to future employers. Academic excellence Gain a globally-recognized education and expand your future career options. 72 Students often have access to diverse academic opportunities that aren’t available in their home countries.

You’ll discover yourself. Push yourself out of your comfort zone and see the incredible personal growth you’ll make. Along the way, you might realize you have the power to shape your future. 73 Career advancement 74 Your journey of personal development while achieving academic excellence, proves your capabilities.

But for some, anxiety never goes away completely. 76 . The good one is that you can manage the symptoms (症状), so they don’t manage you. Here are some things you can do on any given day to get on the right side of calm. Find an object to focus on A simple grounding exercise is to simply find an object and put all your attention towards studying it for a few minutes. Once you pick an object, start thinking about its look: color, shape, and texture. Who made it? How does it feel when you touch it? 77 . 78 If you’re prone (易于遭受) to anxiety, keep a diary where you can write what you’re afraid of, your beliefs and thoughts about the fear. Writing will help you focus your thoughts, and reading your entry later can help you handle your anxiety better. Challenge and replace unrealistic thoughts 79 . Identify your anxiety-producing unrealistic thoughts and replace them with thoughts that are either happy and peaceful, or more realistic. If you respond better to positivity, try replacing those fears with a happy thought — like how excited you are to go on a trip with your friends, and how fun it’s going to be! Talk to someone about your anxiety If you’re in the struggles of anxiety and can’t seem to get out, call a friend, a family member or a mental health professional for help. Have them distract you from your panic and talk through your fear so you can overcome the stress. 80 . A. That’s the bad news B. Put your feelings down C. Control your inner dialogue D. Best of all, you can get things done E. Remind yourself that your thoughts are not facts F. This exercise helps ground you in reality and pushes aside any stresses G.

Forgive those who have wronged you in the past. Think about all of the people who have hurt you, whether it was recently or a long time ago. Do you still harbor negative feelings toward these individuals? 82 Take a moment to mentally forgive the people who have hurt you, and throw away their influence from your life. Forgiveness doesn’t mean you have to trust or like the person in question. It means that you’re absolving yourself of the issue and the bad emotions that comes with it. Always put your own happiness first. Thinking of others more than of yourself is true. 83 Before agreeing to do something with a friend or family member, decide if it’s something that would make you happy or not. By avoiding stressful activities and tasks, you can invite a lot more positive, productive energy into your life. For instance, if you don’t like traveling but your friends invite you on a weekend trip in the city, put your foot down and explain why you would rather not go. 84 If you want to achieve something big, think of actionable ways you can attain them. Don’t expect to fulfill your dreams in a week or a month — instead, divide them into small, achievable baby measures. As you achieve each measure, take a moment to celebrate the little achievements! If you want to become fluent in another language, you’ll need to develop a study plan first. 85 A. Take separate steps to achieve your goals. B. Take measures to celebrate the achievements. C. Luckily, there are ways to bring in positive energy. D. Lots of practice is the best way to improve your language skills. E. However, you should try not to forget about yourself in the process. F. If so, you could be welcoming negative energy into your life without realizing it. G. Start by learning basic grammar and vocabulary, and then work your way up to speaking conversationally. Passage 3 （24-25高二上·河南南阳·期中） Writing an essay is a difficult process for most people. However, the process can be made easier if you learn to practice three simple techniques. 86 When you are first trying to think of ideas for an essay, put your pen to your paper and write nonstop for ten or fifteen minutes without letting your pen leave the paper. Stay loose and free. 87 Don’t worry about grammar or spelling. Even though this technique won’t work for everyone, it helps many people get a good store of ideas to draw on. The next technique is to write your draft rapidly without worrying about being perfect. 88 Yet, by learning to live with imperfection, you will save yourself headaches and a wastepaper basket full of crumpled (弄皱) paper. Think of your first draft as a path cut out of the jungle—as part of an exploration, not as a complete highway. The third technique is to try printing out a triple-spaced (三倍行距) copy to allow space for revision. 89 As a result, these writers never get in the habit of crossing out chunks (大块) of their draft and writing revisions in the blank space. After you have revised your draft until it is too messy to work from anymore, you can enter your changes into your word processor. 90 The resulting blank space invites you to revise. A. Make sure your handwriting is neat. B. Let your pen follow the waves of thought. C. The second draft of the essay should be better. D. First of all, learn the technique of nonstop writing. E. Too many writers try to get their drafts right the first time. F. Many beginning writers don’t leave enough space to revise. G. Then you can print out a fresh draft, again setting your text on triple-space. Passage 4 （24-25高二上·河大附中·期中） Resilience (韧性) is that amazing skill that helps you recover quickly from difficulties. If you are resilient, then when life knocks you down, you bounce back and you keep going. 91 So how do you become a more resilient person? ●Stop your negative thought cycles. Often when bad things happen, we get stuck thinking about negative outcomes. 92 Unfortunately, negative thought cycles just get us caught up in our thoughts. To put an end to these negative thought cycles, you can focus on something else entirely. ●Question the catastrophe (灾难). Catastrophizing is when we expect the worst possible outcome in a situation. When we believe the worst will come true, we set ourselves up for unnecessary stress and poor resilience. 93 Every time you find yourself imagining the worst, touch the object and remind yourself that the best possible outcome is just as likely to occur as the worst possible outcome. ●Find the benefits of past challenges and failures. Plenty of smart folks will tell you that you should take action and reflect on your failures right after you experience them. 94 An easier way to start may be to look at past challenges—challenges that you’re no longer upset about. For example, if you missed an important deadline, maybe you learned that you need to arrange better, or tone down your perfectionism, ● 95 When you’re experiencing a challenge, the ability to think about your experiences as if you were “a fly on the wall”, or as if you were someone else who is witnessing your experiences from afar, keeps you from getting stuck in your negative emotions. Emotional distancing also makes it less likely that you will replay the unpleasant details of the event, and as a result, you may feel better when bad things happen. A. Emotionally distance yourself from challenges. B. But negative emotions can cloud your thinking. C. Many things may make you feel uncomfortable in life. D. Sometimes life’s challenges can even make you stronger. E. One way to break this thought pattern is to carry a small object with you. F. We mistakenly believe thinking about our hardships will help us solve them. G. The ability to find the silver linings in stressful situations helps us generate positive emotions. 主题03 人与自然 Passage 1 （24-25高二上·河南郑州外国语·期中） When is bedtime? 96 Inside every living thing is a clock that follows the sun. For a long time, people assumed that daylight told animals when to go to sleep or wake up. See light, wake. See dark, sleep. Then, in 1729, a French scientist named Jean-Jacques d’Ortous de Mairan did an experiment with a mimosa (含羞草), a plant that folds up its leaves at night. 97 From time to time, he peeked inside. To his surprise, the leaves continued to open and close each day as usual, even in total darkness. And he had discovered a new thing about living creatures. Inside every cell, there is a tiny clock that keeps track of whether it’s morning, noon, or night on the 24-hour cycle of a day. 98 Every cell in the body has its own tiny time-clicker. A master timekeeper in the brain keeps all these cell clocks in step. For humans, a small group of cells at the back of the eye are in charge of the special job. 99 The master clock then sends “wake up” or “sleep” chemicals to all your cells. You can feel light reset your clock if you fly to a different time zone. For a few days you get sleepy at bedtime back home even if it’s afternoon in your new place. This is called “jet lag”. 100 But soon the bright light in the morning and dark at night will reset your master clock to match the local time where you are, and you’re back on schedule. So don’t worry if you forget your watch—your clock inside will keep you on sun time. A. Inside every cell, there is a tiny clock. B. That’s your body’s internal clock at work. C. If you don’t have a phone or watch, don’t worry. D. To learn more about this, scientists did some research. E. They signal when they see strong daylight or growing darkness. F. He put some of the plants in a cupboard and kept them in constant darkness. G. These timekeepers cause cells to do different things at different times of day.

Create a group of people around you who want to help you succeed. They can be teachers or family members who can give you guidance and help you develop new skills. 29 ●Acknowledge your accomplishments. 30 Take a walk, send an e-mail, get a snack... whatever works for you. Then move on the next project. A. Then, make a plan. B. Create new challenges. C. Rearrange your time and devote more energy to your work. D.

Puzzles come in a huge range of sizes and difficulty levels. For beginners, a 100-piece puzzle is usually a good starting point. 47 Try grouping pieces with the same colors or design because they will probably go in the same area once the puzzle takes shape. 48 Those pieces are easier to find because they have a straight side. Stay patient as you search through and try to make it fit together. You may not find any connecting pieces for ages but then several may suddenly appear. For a real test, puzzles that have 1, 000 pieces or more are a tough task and it’s best to complete them with friends or family if you can. Choosing a scene that interests you, such as a favourite film, sport or location, can help keep you interested and determined to work to the final piece. You can get fun educational puzzles, too. 49 Some of the best places to pick up puzzles are charity shops. They’re often on sale for less than £5. Once you have completed a puzzle, it’s nice to exchange it with a friend. 50 You just upload an image, such as a family scene, and they will make a puzzle from it and post it to you. It makes lovely and unusual present. A. So others can have a go. B. Some companies make personalized puzzles. C. It can get you used to sorting out how the shapes, patterns and colors go together. D. However, a good start doesn’t always lead to a good result. E. For example, you may try a map of the world or historical timelines. F. A good puzzle is a better choice. G.

If you’re unsure of your pet’s body language, consider reading some articles for your specific animal. 51 , as you can even copy some of its movements, expressions and sounds to send your message in a way it understands. When dogs feel stressed out or threatened, their eyes will look larger than normal. If your dog isn’t looking directly at you, but is looking out of the corners of its eyes so that you see a lot of the whites of the eyes, it might be about to have an aggressive outburst. 52 . If your cat looks at you and blinks at you slowly, it’s likely communicating affection. You can do this back at your cat to show your love, too. 53 . If your cat feels threatened, its tail will likely be upright; its back will likely bearched, too. 54 . If your bird’s pupils (瞳孔) enlarge and shrink rapidly, this can be a sign that it’s excited, greatly interested, scared or angry. 55 . Birds will shake their feathers while cleaning themselves; if their feathers remain shaking, however, this could mean they’re unwell, in which case, take them to an animal doctor for a checkup. A. You pet’s health depends on your daily care B. The context is important in telling which emotion it might be C. Birds can be quite expressive through their eyes and feathers D. Once familiar with each other’s body language, cats can play together E. For cats, closing one’s eyes in the presence of another is a way to show trust F. If your dog is feeling aggressive, its wide eyes will be accompanied by a rigid body G. Understanding your pet’s body language will help you to be a better communicator 【答案】51. G 52. F 53. E 54. C 55. B 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了不同宠物的身体语言及如何理解它们的情感。 51.上文“Body language of pets is different based on what sort of animal you have chosen as your pet. If you’re unsure of your pet’s body language, consider reading some articles for your specific animal.(宠物的肢体语言因你选择的宠物种类而异。如果你不确定宠物的肢体语言，可以考虑阅读一些针对你特定动物的文章)”说明可以通过阅读特定动物的文章，来了解不同宠物的肢体语言。空处承上启下，说明了解宠物身体语言的重要性。G项中的“Understanding your pet’s body language”和上文中的“Body language of pets”相呼应，“help you to be a better communicator”和下文中的“send your message in a way it understands”相呼应，所以G项“了解宠物的肢体语言将帮助你成为一个更好的沟通者”符合语境。故选G。 52.上文“When dogs feel stressed out or threatened, their eyes will look larger than normal. If your dog isn’t looking directly at you, but is looking out of the corners of its eyes so that you see a lot of the whites of the eyes, it might be about to have an aggressive outburst.(当狗感到压力过大或受到威胁时，它们的眼睛会看起来比平时大。如果你的狗没有直视你，而是从眼角向外看，这样你就能看到很多眼白，它可能会爆发出攻击性的情绪)”说明狗在感到压力或受到威胁时眼睛的变化，以及这种情况下可能伴随的行为表现。空处承接上文，补充说明狗在感到攻击性时的其他身体信号。F项“如果你的狗感到有攻击性，它睁大的眼睛会伴随着僵硬的身体”符合语境，该项中的“your dog is feeling aggressive”和上文中的“When dogs feel stressed out or threatened”相呼应。故选F。 53.上文“If your cat looks at you and blinks at you slowly, it’s likely communicating affection.

Here are four of them. Put people in the story Science’s stories often lack human characters. 56 . Characters can be also people affected by a scientific topic, or interested in learning more about it. Besides, they can be storytellers who are sharing their personal experiences. 57 People often think of science as objective and fair. But science is actually a human practice that continuously involves choices, missteps and biases (偏见) . If you explain science as a course, you can walk people through the sequence of how science is done and why researchers reach certain conclusions. 58 . And they can also stress the reason why people should trust the course of science to provide the most accurate conclusions possible given the available information. Include what people care about Scientific topics are important, but they may not always be the public’s most pressing concerns. In April 2024, a polling company found that “the quality of the environment” was one of the lowest-ranked priorities among people in the US. The stories about the environment could weave in connections to higher-priority topics. 59 . Tell science's stories Scientists, of course, can be science communicators, but everyone can tell science’s stories. When we share information online about health, or talk to friends and family about the weather, we contribute to information that circulates about science topics. 60 . Think about all of a story’s characteristics — character, action, sequence, scope, storyteller and content - and how you might incorporate them into the topic. A. Explain science as a process B. Shoot attractive short science videos C. Scientists themselves can actually become ideal ones D. This practice is to stress why the content is important E. You can tell growth stories of remarkable teenage scientists F. Science communicators can emphasize how science is conducted G. You may as well borrow features from stories to strengthen your message 【答案】56. C 57. A 58. F 59. D 60. G 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了四种使科学故事更具体且引人入胜的策略。 56.上文“Science’s stories often lack human characters. (科学的故事往往缺乏人物角色。)”说明科学的故事缺乏人物角色。空处顺接上文，应介绍科学故事中的人物可以是谁。C项中的ideal ones指代前文中的human characters，说明C项“科学家本身可以成为理想的人物角色”，符合语境。故选C。 57.下文“People often think of science as objective and fair. But science is actually a human practice that continuously involves choices, missteps and biases (偏见) . If you explain science as a course, you can walk people through the sequence of how science is done and why researchers reach certain conclusions. (人们通常认为科学是客观和公正的。但实际上，科学是一种不断涉及选择、失误和偏见的人类活动。如果你把科学解释为一个过程，你可以带领人们了解科学研究的步骤以及研究人员为何会得出特定的结论。)”说明本段主要介绍了如果把科学解释成一个过程，你可以带领人们了解科学是如何进行的。A项“将科学解释为一个过程。”适合作本段的主旨句，统领全段。故选A。 58.下文“And they can also stress the reason why people should trust the course of science to provide the most accurate conclusions possible given the available information. (他们还可以强调为什么人们应该信任科学的过程，因为这一过程能够在现有信息的基础上提供尽可能准确的结论。)”说明科学传播者可以让人们信任科学的过程。空处和下文并列说出科学传播者的作用。下文中的they指代F项中的Science communicators，说明科学传播者可以强调科学是如何进行的，也可以强调为什么人们应该信任科学的过程。所以F项“科学传播者可以强调科学是如何进行的”符合语境。故选F。 59.上文“The stories about the environment could weave in connections to higher-priority topics. (关于环境的故事可能会与更高优先级的话题交织在一起。)”说明关于环境的故事可以与更高优先级的主题联系起来。空处指出这样的目的。D项中的“This practice”指代前文中的“将环境故事与更高优先级主题联系起来”这一做法，说明D项“这样做是为了强调内容的重要性。”符合语境。故选D。 60.上文“Scientists, of course, can be science communicators, but everyone can tell science’s stories. When we share information online about health, or talk to friends and family about the weather, we contribute to information that circulates about science topics. (当然，科学家可以成为科学传播者，但每个人都可以讲述科学的故事。当我们在网上分享有关健康的信息，或与朋友和家人谈论天气时，我们为传播有关科学主题的信息做出了贡献。)”说明我们每个人通过分享日常生活中的信息，都可以成为科学传播者。空处顺接前文，引出下文，指出如何做来强化信息的传递。G项中的“borrow features from stories”和下文中的“a story’s characteristics - character, action, sequence, scope, storyteller and content”相呼应，所以G项“你也不妨借用故事的特点来加强你的信息”符合语境。故选G。 Passage 2 （24-25高二上·河南信高贤岭校区·期中） One of the most important elements of successful job hunting is the job interview. 61 In order to give yourself an edge over others applying for the job you want, it is important to create a solid impression during the job interview. Because what you say during an interview is so important, there are two rules to remember. One is to present yourself in a favourable way and stress your areas of excellence. However, don’t exaggerate (夸张); tell the truth. 62 Notice the interviewer’s interests and relate your comments to them. 63 Don't be afraid to ask for a second interview if you need time to gather information that will be more useful in the second interview. Most interviewers will appreciate your questions and your ability to listen and respond. Each of us has sensitive areas, which could refer to your lack of an academic degree, a long period of unemployment, or lack of work experience if you are entering a new field. 64 If you believe that this area presents a real barrier to a job offer, you could be communicating this doubt to the interviewer. Many times, however, an interviewer will ignore these sensitive areas if you have a confident, positive attitude. The job interview is an important part of the job search because the attitude and impression you project can make the interviewer feel “with you” or “against you”. 65 Interviewers have the intelligence to recognize genuine enthusiasm and interest. A. Answer sensitive questions briefly and positively. B. Show confidence in yourself and your ability to do the job. C. Some people lose job opportunities because of talking too much. D. If unsure of job requirements, ask questions to see if you're qualified. E. Remember that you have the power to create a favourable impression. F. There are thousands of people entering new careers and searching for jobs. G. Second, listen carefully and get involved in what the interviewer is saying. 【答案】61. F 62. G 63. D 64. A 65.

One is to present yourself in a favourable way and stress your areas of excellence.(因为你在面试中说的话很重要，因此要记住这两条规则。其中一个就是以一种有利的方式呈现自己，强调自己优秀的地方)”可知，空前提到有两条规则，且介绍了其中一条，故G项“第二，认真听，投入到面试者所说的话。”能够承接前文，继续介绍前文提到的两条规则中的另一条。故选G项。 63.根据空后“Don't be afraid to ask for a second interview if you need time to gather information that will be more useful in the second interview. Most interviewers will appreciate your questions and your ability to listen and respond.(如果你需要时间收集第二次面试中更有用的信息，不要害怕要求第二次面试。大多数面试官都会欣赏你的问题以及你的倾听和回应能力)”可知，空后提到要勇敢询问第二次面试所需要的信息，故D项“如果不确定工作要求，提出问题看自己是否符合。”能够引出后文。如果不确定工作要求，直接提出问题，如果需要时间收集第二次面试中有用的信息，直接要求第二次面试即可，故本段主要介绍大胆提出问题。故选D项。 64.根据空前“Each of us has sensitive areas, which could refer to your lack of an academic degree, a long period of unemployment, or lack of work experience if you are entering a new field.(我们每个人都有敏感区，这可能是你没有学位，长期失业，或者如果你进入了一个新领域，缺乏工作经验)”可知，空前列举了一些敏感区的问题，故此处应提出如何应对，故A项“简单并积极地回答敏感的问题。”能够承接前文，提出在面对自己的敏感区时，应简单并积极地回答这些问题。故选A项。 65.根据空前“The job interview is an important part of the job search because the attitude and impression you project can make the interviewer feel “with you” or “against you”.(面试是求职的重要组成部分，因为你表现出的态度和印象会让面试官感到“支持你”或者“反对你。”)”可知，空前提到在面试中，你的态度和印象是面试官决定留下你或者拒绝你的重要因素，故E项“记住，你有力量创造一个好的印象。”能够承接前文。你的态度和印象决定了面试的结果，你有力量创造一个好的印象。故选E项。 Passage 3 （24-25高二上·河南濮阳·期中） What is the origin of Family History Month? Every human has a history of some sort or another. Usually, that history goes far back beyond ourselves. Every ancestor we have has left his mark on us. 66 . Many people find that there is a certain comfort in knowing where they came from, and that’s why Family History Month was started. How to celebrate Family History Month? Celebrating the history of the family is obviously something that should happen all year round! Try out some of these ideas to get started: * Compile (编纂) a family history It all starts with collecting what people know about their families and compiling it together. 67 . They include documents and records, old photographs, and verbal stories from the still- living members of the family. Those people who are particularly lucky will have had a family member who has started the basics for them. 68 . Today it’s a little easier than it used to be. Websites and organizations are easily found that can help people trace (追溯) their family lines. * 69 Don’t let another day go by without hearing the stories that living family members have to tell about their childhoods and the family history. Whether you visit them in person or arrange for a phone call or video conversation, older family members can be vitally important to keep the family history alive. Ask them to share some stories. It will not only give information but will be good for the relationship and help them to feel needed and loved. Remember to take very good notes or record what they have to say for later generations. * Engage with a genealogy (家谱) website Let someone else do the hard work of finding out all of that family history and background! 70 . Try out the genealogy websites and services, such as FamilySearch, Ancestry and MyHeritage for ideas of where to get started. A. Connect with an older family member B. Focus more on the telling of the elderly C. If not, it’s probably time to take action D. This can be done through the use of many materials E. That has been the formation of tradition and culture within our lives F. It carried the honors and dishonors of everyone who came before them G. Getting connected to the past is much more practical with the help of professionals 【答案】66. E 67. D 68. C 69. A 70.

Do you still harbor negative feelings toward these individuals? 82 Take a moment to mentally forgive the people who have hurt you, and throw away their influence from your life. Forgiveness doesn’t mean you have to trust or like the person in question. It means that you’re absolving yourself of the issue and the bad emotions that comes with it. Always put your own happiness first. Thinking of others more than of yourself is true. 83 Before agreeing to do something with a friend or family member, decide if it’s something that would make you happy or not. By avoiding stressful activities and tasks, you can invite a lot more positive, productive energy into your life. For instance, if you don’t like traveling but your friends invite you on a weekend trip in the city, put your foot down and explain why you would rather not go. 84 If you want to achieve something big, think of actionable ways you can attain them. Don’t expect to fulfill your dreams in a week or a month — instead, divide them into small, achievable baby measures. As you achieve each measure, take a moment to celebrate the little achievements! If you want to become fluent in another language, you’ll need to develop a study plan first. 85 A. Take separate steps to achieve your goals. B. Take measures to celebrate the achievements. C.

However, the process can be made easier if you learn to practice three simple techniques. 86 When you are first trying to think of ideas for an essay, put your pen to your paper and write nonstop for ten or fifteen minutes without letting your pen leave the paper. Stay loose and free. 87 Don’t worry about grammar or spelling. Even though this technique won’t work for everyone, it helps many people get a good store of ideas to draw on. The next technique is to write your draft rapidly without worrying about being perfect. 88 Yet, by learning to live with imperfection, you will save yourself headaches and a wastepaper basket full of crumpled (弄皱) paper. Think of your first draft as a path cut out of the jungle—as part of an exploration, not as a complete highway. The third technique is to try printing out a triple-spaced (三倍行距) copy to allow space for revision. 89 As a result, these writers never get in the habit of crossing out chunks (大块) of their draft and writing revisions in the blank space. After you have revised your draft until it is too messy to work from anymore, you can enter your changes into your word processor. 90 The resulting blank space invites you to revise. A. Make sure your handwriting is neat. B. Let your pen follow the waves of thought. C. The second draft of the essay should be better. D. First of all, learn the technique of nonstop writing. E. Too many writers try to get their drafts right the first time. F. Many beginning writers don’t leave enough space to revise. G. Then you can print out a fresh draft, again setting your text on triple-space. 【答案】86. D 87. B 88. E 89. F 90. G 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲的是写文章的技巧。 86.空格处是本段的主题句，由空后的“When you are first trying to think of ideas for an essay, put your pen to your paper and write nonstop for ten or fifteen minutes without letting your pen leave the paper.(当你第一次想写一篇文章的时候，把笔放在纸上，不间断地写10到15分钟，不要让笔离开纸。)”可知，本段主要讲的是要学会不间断地写，D选项“First of all, learn the technique of nonstop writing.(首先，学习不间断写作的技巧。)”概括了本段的主要内容，可作为主题句，故选D。 87.空前说“Stay loose and free.(保持宽松和自由。)”，空后说“Don’t worry about grammar or spelling.(不要担心语法和拼写。)”，因此空格处应说按心里想的写，自由发挥，B选项“Let your pen follow the waves of thought.(让你的笔跟随思想的波浪。)”说明了按自己的思路和想法来写，因此承上启下，符合语境，故选B。 88.空前说“The next technique is to write your draft rapidly without worrying about being perfect.(下一个技巧是快速写草稿，不要担心是否完美。)”，空后说“Yet, by learning to live with imperfection, you will save yourself headaches and a wastepaper basket full of crumpled (弄皱) paper.(然而，通过学习与不完美共存，你将避免自己的头痛和一个装满皱巴巴的废纸篓。)”，E选项“Too many writers try to get their drafts right the first time.(太多的作家试图在第一次就把草稿写好。)”中的“get their drafts”和上文的“write your draft”相呼应，说明了有很多人想一次就写好，这是不合理的，要学会允许不完美的存在，因此E选项承上启下，符合语境，故选E。 89.空前说“The third technique is to try printing out a triple—spaced (三倍行距) copy to allow space for revision.(第三种方法是打印出三倍行距的副本，以便有修改的空间。)”，F选项“Many beginning writers don’t leave enough space to revise.(许多初来乍到的作者没有留出足够的修改空间。)”中的“revise”和前面的“revision”一致，指出了新手作者的常见做法，且其中的“Many beginning writers”和后文的“these writers”相互呼应，因此F选项承上启下，符合语境，故选F。 90.空前说“After you have revised your draft until it is too messy to work from anymore, you can enter your changes into your word processor.(当你修改你的草稿，直到它太乱以至于无法继续工作，你可以把你的修改输入到你的文字处理器中。)”，空后说“The resulting blank space invites you to revise.(由此产生的空白允许您修改。)”，因此空格处应说输入到文字处理器后应该做什么，G选项“Then you can print out a fresh draft, again setting your text on triple-space.(然后你可以打印一份新的草稿，同样将文本设置为三倍行距。)”说的是输入到你的文字处理器后的做法，其中的“triple-space”和后文的“The resulting blank space”相呼应，因此G选项承上启下，符合语境，故选G。 Passage 4 （24-25高二上·河大附中·期中） Resilience (韧性) is that amazing skill that helps you recover quickly from difficulties. If you are resilient, then when life knocks you down, you bounce back and you keep going. 91 So how do you become a more resilient person? ●Stop your negative thought cycles. Often when bad things happen, we get stuck thinking about negative outcomes. 92 Unfortunately, negative thought cycles just get us caught up in our thoughts. To put an end to these negative thought cycles, you can focus on something else entirely. ●Question the catastrophe (灾难). Catastrophizing is when we expect the worst possible outcome in a situation. When we believe the worst will come true, we set ourselves up for unnecessary stress and poor resilience. 93 Every time you find yourself imagining the worst, touch the object and remind yourself that the best possible outcome is just as likely to occur as the worst possible outcome. ●Find the benefits of past challenges and failures. Plenty of smart folks will tell you that you should take action and reflect on your failures right after you experience them. 94 An easier way to start may be to look at past challenges—challenges that you’re no longer upset about. For example, if you missed an important deadline, maybe you learned that you need to arrange better, or tone down your perfectionism, ● 95 When you’re experiencing a challenge, the ability to think about your experiences as if you were “a fly on the wall”, or as if you were someone else who is witnessing your experiences from afar, keeps you from getting stuck in your negative emotions. Emotional distancing also makes it less likely that you will replay the unpleasant details of the event, and as a result, you may feel better when bad things happen. A. Emotionally distance yourself from challenges. B. But negative emotions can cloud your thinking. C. Many things may make you feel uncomfortable in life. D. Sometimes life’s challenges can even make you stronger. E. One way to break this thought pattern is to carry a small object with you. F. We mistakenly believe thinking about our hardships will help us solve them. G. The ability to find the silver linings in stressful situations helps us generate positive emotions. 【答案】91. D 92. F 93. E 94. B 95.

(当不好的事情发生时，我们常常会陷入对负面结果的思考)”可知，当不好的事情发生时，我们常常想其负面结果。选项F“We mistakenly believe thinking about our hardships will help us solve them.(我们错误地认为思考我们的困难会帮助我们解决它们。)”延续上文内容，指的是我们以为思考自己的困难就可以解决困难。故选F。 93.根据空后内容“Every time you find yourself imagining the worst, touch the object and remind yourself that the best possible outcome is just as likely to occur as the worst possible outcome.(每当你发现自己在想象最坏的情况时，摸一下那个东西，提醒自己最好的结果和最坏的结果发生的可能性是一样的)”可判断，空处需要提到一样东西提醒自己最好的结果和最坏的结果发生的可能性是一样的。选项E“One way to break this thought pattern is to carry a small object with you.(打破这种思维模式的一个方法就是随身携带一个小物件。)”与下文内容一致。故选E。 94.根据空前内容“Plenty of smart folks will tell you that you should take action and reflect on your failures right after you experience them.(很多聪明的人会告诉你，你应该在经历失败后立即采取行动并反思自己的失败)”可知，很多人都认为经历失败后应立即采取行动，并反思自己的失败。选项B“But negative emotions can cloud your thinking.(但是负面情绪会影响你的思维。)”与上文内容存在转折关系，指出负面情绪会影响思维，同时引出下文的方法“An easier way to start may be to look at past challenges—challenges that you're no longer upset about.(一个更简单的开始方法可能是回顾过去的挑战——那些你不再为之烦恼的挑战)”。故选B。 95.空处为小标题，为本段主旨句。根据本段内容“When you’re experiencing a challenge, the ability to think about your experiences as if you were “a fly on the wall”, or as if you were someone else who is witnessing your experiences from afar, keeps you from getting stuck in your negative emotions. Emotional distancing also makes it less likely that you will replay the unpleasant details of the event, and as a result, you may feel better when bad things happen.(当你面临挑战时，把你的经历想象成“墙上的一只苍蝇”，或者把你想象成一个从远处目睹你经历的人，这样你就不会陷入消极情绪中。情感距离也使你不太可能重提事件中不愉快的细节，因此，当不好的事情发生时，你可能会感觉更好)”可知，本段主要建议我们通过将自己视为旁观者来避免陷入负面情绪中，从而保持更好的心态面对挑战。选项A“Emotionally distance yourself from challenges.(从情感上让自己远离挑战。)”概括了本段的主要内容，适合作为段落标题句。故选A。 主题03 人与自然 Passage 1 （24-25高二上·河南郑州外国语·期中） When is bedtime? 96 Inside every living thing is a clock that follows the sun. For a long time, people assumed that daylight told animals when to go to sleep or wake up. See light, wake. See dark, sleep. Then, in 1729, a French scientist named Jean-Jacques d’Ortous de Mairan did an experiment with a mimosa (含羞草), a plant that folds up its leaves at night. 97 From time to time, he peeked inside. To his surprise, the leaves continued to open and close each day as usual, even in total darkness. And he had discovered a new thing about living creatures. Inside every cell, there is a tiny clock that keeps track of whether it’s morning, noon, or night on the 24-hour cycle of a day. 98 Every cell in the body has its own tiny time-clicker. A master timekeeper in the brain keeps all these cell clocks in step. For humans, a small group of cells at the back of the eye are in charge of the special job. 99 The master clock then sends “wake up” or “sleep” chemicals to all your cells. You can feel light reset your clock if you fly to a different time zone. For a few days you get sleepy at bedtime back home even if it’s afternoon in your new place. This is called “jet lag”. 100 But soon the bright light in the morning and dark at night will reset your master clock to match the local time where you are, and you’re back on schedule. So don’t worry if you forget your watch—your clock inside will keep you on sun time. A. Inside every cell, there is a tiny clock. B. That’s your body’s internal clock at work. C. If you don’t have a phone or watch, don’t worry. D. To learn more about this, scientists did some research. E. They signal when they see strong daylight or growing darkness. F. He put some of the plants in a cupboard and kept them in constant darkness. G. These timekeepers cause cells to do different things at different times of day. 【答案】96. C 97. F 98. G 99. E 100.
