Family meetings are a good way to improve communication among all family members. To hold a successful family meeting, you need to avoid the following common mistakes.
Giving up too soon. 1 . It may take some time for everyone to grow comfortable with family meetings. But if you hold them regularly (定期) and try to make them better, your meetings can become helpful to everyone in the family.

● 2 Kids can help take care of plants, like vegetables or plants in a garden. Growing and looking after plants helps children understand that people have a role to play in helping living things meet their needs. Make connections between climate change and the needs of plants.
●Play some games. Encourage your children to head outside for a few rounds of nature scavenger hunt (寻物游戏), where you give them a list of items to find, like sticks, colorful leaves and rocks. It is also a good choice to play “I Spy”, which gets them to connect words with the natural world. 3
●Build an outdoor tool set. Put together an outdoor tool set with a magnifying glass (放大镜), a telescope and a container. 4 Then, try starting with something they are interested in, such as building a mini park or collecting natural items.

(24-25高一上·河南焦作博爱·期中)
How to Say Anything
Could you use some advice? Or has something big happened? Our tips can help you say anything to your parents.
Pick the right time. You need your parents’ full attention in order to have a good talk. Try not to bring up something when it’s past your bedtime or when your parent is in a rush. 1 Your parents want to know what’s on your mind, so ask them to make time for you.
Go slowly. What you need to say probably isn’t simple, so don’t try to get it all out in one breath. Give your parents the details they need to make a decision before you start trying to bargain with them. Besides, another thing is also of great importance. 2 Listen to them, and they’ll listen to you.
Be honest. Your parents will respond better if you believe that you’re telling the truth and not trying to avoid blame. Take responsibility for your part in getting into trouble or earning a bad grade. 3 Things get worse the longer you wait.
Try, try again. When you fly off the handle, your parents have a hard time seeing your point of view. If you’re angry or frustrated, take a break from the conversation. Excuse yourself, and go somewhere to cool off. 4
Be brave. 5 But your parents almost always can help you solve a problem or answer a big question, and you’ll almost always feel better afterward. Talk to your parents. You’ll be glad you did.
A. If you’ve done something wrong, admit it.
B. After all, details determine success or failure.
C. Remember that conversation is about give and take.
D. If your parents are occupied, make an “appointment”.
E. Your conversation will be reduced to a terrible quarrel.
F. Gather your thoughts and try talking to your parents again.
G. You might have a question for long before you get up the courage to let it out.

(24-25高一上·河南南阳一中·期中)
Benefits of Sports
Doing sports is a physical, mental and social adventure. The physical benefits of doing sports are probably the most obvious. Regardless of your fitness level when you start playing sports, you’ll notice an increase in your overall fitness once you’re involved. 1 Basketball players focus on strength training; football players work on speed while track athletes train through longer runs. The training process helps promote physical fitness and performances in competitions.
2 Playing sports also contributes to mental health, helping to increase confidence and self-worth. A pat on the back, high-five from a teammate, or handshake after a match really boosts a child’s confidence. Words of praise and encouragement from the coach, parents and other players raise the self-worth. 3 So after a game, it’s a better idea to ask “Did you enjoy the game?” rather than “Did you win?”
Children who participate in sports might also benefit from the social aspect, feeling part of a group, building up responsibility and leadership. 4 Teamwork involves both being dependable as a teammate and learning to rely on your teammates to achieve a positive outcome. Teamwork causes responsibility and challenges you to be responsible for your actions. Being part of a team gives you an opportunity to be a leader.
Discipline(自律) is another social advantage. Most organized sports require a strict training and practice schedule. As a student-athlete, you need to balance academics and athletics. 5 There is no shortage of reasons to find a sport to get involved in. Are you ready to go? Pick one and get moving!
A. It’s not just your body that benefits from sports.
B. Therefore, playing sports is going to make you more fit.
C. If you play group sports, you’ll be part of a team that takes direction from a coach.
D. But remember, a child’s self-worth should not be told apart by victory or loss.
E. Nearly every sport requires physical activity and the skills needed to be competitive.
F. Among these, learning how to function as part of a team is the most important advantage.
G. Only with strict discipline can you be successful both in the classroom and in the sports field.

According to Jessica Hagy, author of How to Be Interesting, it’s not difficult to make yourself interesting at a dinner party.
1 , if you’re out of your comfort zone or if you’re wandering into somebody’s house for the first time. So the main thing is just to show up and be adventurous, trying different foods and talking to strangers.
People love to talk about themselves. If you can start the conversation with a question other than “What do you do for a living?”, you’ll be able to get a lot more interesting conversation out of whomever it is you’re talking to. 2 , it can bring in “I have this old, broken-down vehicle” or “I rode the bus with these crazy people who were laughing at silly jokes in the back.” It just opens up conversation.
3 ? If you can’t take their wine away, you should certainly try to take away their soapbox (讲台). If you’re the host, you can ask them to help you in the kitchen with something and just remove them from the situation. 4 .
And what about that other dinner-party killer: awkward silence? If you’re faced with an awkward silence at a dinner party, the only thing that always gets everyone talking again is to give the host a compliment (赞扬). 5 . Just quickly turn around and say, “This cake is extremely delicious and you have to tell me all about it.”
So being interesting at a dinner party isn’t that hard.
A. How do you know the host
B. The first step is to go exploring
C. If you ask the question “How did you get here?”
D. Be prepared to have awkward conversations with strangers
E. Or turn the conversation into a topic where they have little to say

A Few Simple Ways to Get Inspired
Many creative people are famous for their strange ways of finding inspiration (灵感). Inspiration is not easy to get, so it’s no wonder people chase (追逐) after it in strange ways. But you don’t have to go to extremes. 1
Keep an idea book or an inspiration board.
Inspiration might not come all at once. 2 With an idea book or a vision board, you can keep track of these puzzle pieces and use them to find inspiration later on. If you like working with words, create an idea book where you can write down ideas. If you’ re more visual (视觉的), take pictures that inspire you and turn them into a vision board.
3
Many people go to sleep and wake up inspired. While most sleep refreshes your brain, rapid eye movement (REM) sleep is especially good at prompting (推动) inspiration. Alternating between REM and non-REM sleep helps your brain reshape networks, making you more likely to think up ideas when you wake up.
Spend time in nature.
4 And nature has inspired a long line of artists. E. B. White came up with the story for Charlotte’s Web after watching a spider make her net. Researchers have also found that spending time in nature improves cognitive (认知的) ability, setting you up to make more connections between ideas.
Play and laugh.
Spending some of your free time with children can· bring inspiration closer to the surface. Your creativity decreases as you age, and children are experts in play, which is all about experimenting and opening up new possibilities. Looking at the world through open eyes can be a powerful source of creative inspiration. Humour and laughter can also lead to inspiration. 5
A. Go to sleep.
B. Stick to your sleeping habit.
C. Even just reading a book could prompt inspiration.
D. Experts recommend using humour at work to get ideas.
E. You may experience tiny flashes that turn into something big.
F. Spending time outside can get you into a more open headspace.
G. Here are things you can try when your creative juices have run dry.
Passage 3
(24-25高一上·河南潢川·期中)
A learning log(日志) is an educational tool designed to improve children’s learning experience. 1 It can be applied by homeschoolers and other students accepting non-traditional education as well.
A learning log can be used in a variety of ways. For example, students might be asked to take five minutes at the end of the class to write in their learning logs about what they learned. 2 Learning logs can also be used for taking notes, or for responding to reading, classroom learning, and other forms of input.
Teachers and students can work together with a learning log to set clear goals and to record the processes used to achieve those goals. For example, at the beginning of the term, a student might sit down with a teacher and produce a list of topics which he or she should be familiar with by the end of the term. Learning logs can also be used to record out-of-class experiences. 3
Teachers may regularly check a student’s learning log to see areas where the student may need improvement. For example, a student struggling in a science class might not be frank about the issue. 4 Recording this issue would allow the teacher to customize a response to the student to help him or her improve.
5 Some learning logs include the recording of homework lists, which parents can use to monitor(监督) their children and make sure that they’re doing all of their homework. And parents can find whether their kids have any problems related to study. If they do have some, they can take measures to help them in time.
A. It can be used in common school environments.

Passage 4
(24-25高一上·河南南阳六校·期中)
Everything that is stressful in the world keeps you up. 1 . Almost 40% of people worldwide have reported sleep problems over the past two years. It’s normal to wake up at night, but bad news can keep your mind active and make it hard to fall back asleep. Simple steps can help.
☆Test your pillow (枕头)
If you bought your pillow the year before last year, it’s already old. It is suggested that you should replace it every one to two years. A pillow past its best time can cause neck pain and give your brain pain signals (信号), resulting in restless sleep. 2 .
☆Get an hour of sunlight each day
Morning sunlight is important for good sleep. It controls the production of melatonin (褪黑素) in your brain. 3 . Aim for 15 to 30 minutes of direct light first thing and two 15-minute outdoor breaks during the day. The light tells your brain that it's time to be awake.
☆ 4
In a study, researchers followed 321 patients with high-salt diets and sleep problems for 12 weeks. When people cut down on salt, their average toilet trips reduced from twice a night to once. And those who ate more salt woke up more often to go to the bathroom.
☆Solve your troubles before dinner
5 . Heated discussions are less likely to influence your sleep if you start them earlier. Arguments can activate your sympathetic nervous system, which influences sleep. Some research even suggests that going to bed angry may make you bad-tempered (坏脾气的) the next morning.
A. Avoid salty foods before bed
B. Have some delicious food for dinner
C. This helps keep away from tiring morning feeling
D. It is no wonder many of us are struggling to sleep
E. We usually wake up more and get less sleep overall
F. If you need to argue about a problem, don’t wait until night
G. When your brain is receiving pain signals, it can’t send sleep signals at the same time

Passage 1
(24-25高一上·河南洛阳·期中)
From schools to workplaces, we are told that ordinary negative emotions (情绪) and experiences — fear of failure, or sadness over a breakup, maybe — should be treated or forgotten. Feeling bad is bad.
1 . I don’t believe that forgetting bad feelings is the way to a good life. People are experiencing more than just everyday bad feelings right now. Many have lost jobs and loved ones and are feeling sad. But we have an opportunity here to get the benefits of negative emotions and experiences — and how we can use them for personal improvement instead of trying to push them away.
2 : Negative emotions exist to keep us safe. The primary negative emotions include sadness, anger, fear, and so on. We experience them in an involuntary way in response to environmental situations. You never say you are afraid. 3 . Of course, your system can be very active — you can have an anger-management problem or be fearful — but the broader point is: Although they aren’t fun, bad feelings are very important.
Negative emotions can also make us more effective in our day-to-day activities. Sadness is believed to be able to make us better at realizing reality in social situations. Sadness can even make us more productive at work by improving focus and helping us learn from mistakes. 4 .
Finally, negative emotions make us stronger for when there is a true trouble. Researchers ask people to participate in “stress inoculation (应急) training”. 5 . The result shows that the training is effective in creating emotional resilience (顺应性).
A. This is a mistake
B. Don’t push them away
C. Let’s start with a fairly clear point
D. This is how failure can help lead to later success
E. You just feel it and react with fight or flight, which can save your life
F. If we remove negative emotions from our lives, we will be poorer and weaker for having done so
G. In it people learn to deal with anger, fear, and anxiety by being faced with situations that cause these feelings

Passage 1
(24-25高一上·河南商开联考·期中)
Family meetings are a good way to improve communication among all family members. To hold a successful family meeting, you need to avoid the following common mistakes.
Giving up too soon. 1 . It may take some time for everyone to grow comfortable with family meetings. But if you hold them regularly (定期) and try to make them better, your meetings can become helpful to everyone in the family.
2 . Don’t use your meetings to single out one person for creating a problem and don’t lecture (说教) the kids about the way they act. You might take a problem-solving approach by saying, “The house has been pretty messy lately. What can we do about that?”
Letting kids have too much power. While you want to ask for the kids’ opinions, make it clear that they don’t have equal say in important family matters, like whether you’re going to move. 3 . Then they know you are interested in hearing their thoughts on the matters.
Going too far off the topic. Your kids may begin to get off the topic and if you don’t bring the conversation back to the task at hand, you may feel the meeting is pointless. 4
Getting into arguments (争吵). 5 . Family meetings are a great time to introduce socially proper ways to deal with disagreements. If the kids start to argue noisily or someone crosses the line, stop them at once.
A. Turning a meeting into a lecture
B. They always get the better of an argument
C. If your first meeting doesn’t go well, don’t give up
D. Lecturing your children about making too much noise
E. In this case, step in and tell them to get to the main topic
F. Even so, let them know the adults are open to their opinions
G. At times, a family meeting ends up with an endless argument

But if you hold them regularly (定期) and try to make them better, your meetings can become helpful to everyone in the family. (每个人可能都需要一段时间才能逐渐适应家庭会议。但是如果你定期举行并努力改进,你的家庭会议就能对家里的每个人都有帮助)”可知,即使第一次家庭会议不成功,也不要放弃,故C选项“If your first meeting doesn’t go well, don’t give up (如果你的第一次会议进行得不顺利,不要放弃)”能承上启下,符合题意。故选C。
【2题详解】
由下文“Don’t use your meetings to single out one person for creating a problem and don’t lecture (说教) the kids about the way they act. (不要用会议来单独指出某一个人制造了问题,也不要就孩子们的行为方式对他们进行说教)”可知,本空要说跟“不要说教”有关的话题,A选项“Turning a meeting into a lecture (把会议变成说教)”能引出下文,符合题意。故选A。
【3题详解】
由上文“While you want to ask for the kids’ opinions, make it clear that they don’t have equal say in important family matters, like whether you’re going to move.

(那么他们就会知道你很想听听他们对这些事情的想法)”可知,虽然孩子们在家庭重要事务上没有平等发言权,大人们还是要倾听孩子们的意见,本空应对此进行解释。F选项“Even so, let them know the adults are open to their opinions (即便如此,也要让他们知道大人们是愿意倾听他们的意见的)”能承上启下,符合题意。故选F。
【4题详解】
由上文“Your kids may begin to get off the topic and if you don’t bring the conversation back to the task at hand, you may feel the meeting is pointless. (你的孩子们可能会开始偏离主题,如果你不把谈话带回当前的任务,你可能会觉得这次会议毫无意义)”可知,孩子们可能会偏离主题,故本空要说跟“把谈话带回当前的任务”有关的话题,E选项“In this case, step in and tell them to get to the main topic (在这种情况下,介入并告诉他们回到主题)”能承接上文,符合题意。故选E。
【5题详解】
由上文“Getting into arguments (争吵)”可知,本空要说跟“争吵”有关的话题,由下文“Family meetings are a great time to introduce socially proper ways to deal with disagreements. If the kids start to argue noisily or someone crosses the line, stop them at once. (家庭会议是介绍社会上处理分歧的恰当方式的好时机。如果孩子们吵吵嚷嚷,或者有人越界了,马上制止他们。)”可知,有时候家庭会议最终会变成争吵,故G选项“At times, a family meeting ends up with an endless argument (有时,家庭会议最终会以无休止的争吵告终)”能承上启下,符合题意。故选G。
Passage 2
(24-25高一上·河南周口恒大·期中)
Before there was the written word, there was the language of dance. Dance expresses love and hate, joy and sorrow, life and death, and everything else in between.
1 We dance from Florida to Alaska, from north to south and sea to sea. We dance at weddings, birthdays, office parties and just to fill the time.
“I adore dancing,” says Lester Bridges, the owner of a dance studio in Iowa. “I can’t imagine doing anything else with my life.” Bridges runs dance classes for all ages. “Teaching dance is wonderful. 2 It’s great to watch them. For many of them, it’s a way of meeting people and having a social life.”
3 “I can tell you about one young couple,” says Bridges. “They’re learning to do traditional dances. They arrive at the class in low spirits and they leave with a smile. 4 ”
So, do we dance in order to make ourselves feel better, calmer, healthier? Andrea Hillier says, “Dance, like the pattern of a beating heart, is life. Even after all these years, I want to get better and better. 5 I find it hard to stop! Dancing reminds me I’m alive.”
A. So why do we dance?
B. Dance in the U.S. is everywhere.
C. If you like dancing outdoors, come to America.
D. My older students say it makes them feel young.
E. I keep practicing even when I’m extremely tired.
F. Dancing seems to change their feeling completely.
G. They stayed up all night long singing and dancing.
【答案】1. B 2. D 3. A 4. F 5. E

The holidays are a time for creating memories with loved ones, not staring at screens. 1 Here are four tips to help you keep your phone in your pocket.

3 Think about having a movie night with snacks, going for a nature hike, baking some cookies, or setting up a board game marathon. You might find that you enjoy these activities just as much, if not more than your usual screen time.
Sleep tech- free. 4 Leaving your phone outside your bedroom can help you relax and get more restful sleep. If possible, turn off your phone at least an hour before you go to bed to help your brain shift into sleep mode (模式).
5 There are apps that allow you to set time limits (限制) for certain apps or that track your usage and encourage you to take breaks. You can also enable airplane mode during family gatherings to silence all notifications (通知) at once. This way, you can enjoy the benefits of technology without letting it take over your holiday.

E. It’s wise for them to attract everyone to take part in the activity.
F. Get creative and come up with activities that don’t involve screens.
G. Instead of bringing your phone to bedroom, use a traditional alarm clock.

【3题详解】
上文提到“You don’t want to be left with nothing to do while your phone is out of reach.(你也不想因为拿不到手机而无所事事吧。)”以及后文“Think about having a movie night with snacks, going for a nature hike, baking some cookies, or setting up a board game marathon. (想想看一场带着零食的电影之夜,去大自然远足,烤一些饼干,或者安排一场棋盘游戏马拉松。)”可知,此处强调,你也不想在手机不在身边的时候无事可做,同时下文提到了一些不需要使用屏幕的活动如看电影,去大自然远足等,因此设空处需要提出一个建议,即发挥创意,想出一些不需要使用屏幕的活动。选项F“Get creative and come up with activities that don’t involve screens.(发挥创意,想出一些不需要使用屏幕的活动)”符合语境。故选F。
【4题详解】

1. 2 Joining a sports team is a great way to stay out of trouble. Whether you're playing soccer or baseball, team sports are a great way to find something to do rather than get into trouble.
2. Join a club. If sports aren't your thing, you can always join a club. You can join an art club, chess club, French club, cooking club and so on. 3 Therefore, you won't have time to annoy your teachers or parents.
3. Go volunteering. 4 If you're too young to do it on your own, go with a parent to a volunteering event. You can help people learn to read, clean up a local park, or work in a soup kitchen. Find something that is meaningful to you and commit to it at least once a week.
4. Read as much as you can. Reading can help you improve your vocabulary and comprehension skills. 5 Getting truly interested in stories can help you forget the hours passing by. Reading for just 20 minutes before bedtime every night can help you develop an addicting lifelong habit.
A. Join a sports team.
B. Play soccer or baseball.
C. Then you can have a good time with your friends.
D. Volunteering is another great way to stay out of trouble.
E. These clubs can help you focus on something you care about.

七选五阅读填空是新课标英语高考的新题型。文章多数是说明文,考查考生对文章的整体内容和结构以及上下文逻辑意义的理解和掌握。在做这种题型时我们要注意以下解题技巧:
1.句式对接
如本文的第2小题,通读文章,我们很容易发现每条建议的第一句话,也就是主题句都是祈使句。第二个建议主要讲的是加入运动队,反观选项,A为祈使句且内容符合题意,故选A。
2.词汇衔接:也就是利用上下文所重复的关键词,即词的复现原则进行判断,其中包括同义词,原词和反义词的复现。要注意空前后的名词、代词、和动词,寻找答案时注意在选项中查找同义词、近义词、反义词或表示同一类事物的词语等。如本问中的第4小题,D项中的 Volunteering与主题句中的Go volunteering就属于原词的复现,这样我们就很容易找到正确的选项。

Passage 1
(24-25高一上·河南焦作博爱·期中)
How to Say Anything
Could you use some advice? Or has something big happened? Our tips can help you say anything to your parents.
Pick the right time. You need your parents’ full attention in order to have a good talk. Try not to bring up something when it’s past your bedtime or when your parent is in a rush. 1 Your parents want to know what’s on your mind, so ask them to make time for you.
Go slowly. What you need to say probably isn’t simple, so don’t try to get it all out in one breath. Give your parents the details they need to make a decision before you start trying to bargain with them. Besides, another thing is also of great importance. 2 Listen to them, and they’ll listen to you.
Be honest. Your parents will respond better if you believe that you’re telling the truth and not trying to avoid blame. Take responsibility for your part in getting into trouble or earning a bad grade. 3 Things get worse the longer you wait.
Try, try again. When you fly off the handle, your parents have a hard time seeing your point of view. If you’re angry or frustrated, take a break from the conversation. Excuse yourself, and go somewhere to cool off. 4
Be brave. 5 But your parents almost always can help you solve a problem or answer a big question, and you’ll almost always feel better afterward. Talk to your parents. You’ll be glad you did.
A. If you’ve done something wrong, admit it.
B. After all, details determine success or failure.
C. Remember that conversation is about give and take.
D. If your parents are occupied, make an “appointment”.
E. Your conversation will be reduced to a terrible quarrel.
F. Gather your thoughts and try talking to your parents again.
G. You might have a question for long before you get up the courage to let it out.
【答案】1. D 2. C 3. A 4. F 5. G
【解析】

根据该段标题Be honest.(要诚实。)以及上文“Take responsibility for your part in getting into trouble or earning a bad grade.”(对自己陷入麻烦或成绩不佳的那部分负责。)可知,讲的是关于诚实的问题,要正视自己的错误。下文“Things get worse the longer you wait.”(你等的时间越长,情况就越糟。)故可推断空格处内容为如果做错了什么就及时地承认。结合选项A项If you’ve done something wrong, admit it.(如果你做错了什么,就承认吧。)符合此推断,为上下文的承上启下,上下文语意连贯。故选A项。
【4题详解】
由该题位于此段的句尾,可知为总结该段内容或与上文内容相关。上文“When you fly off the handle, your parents have a hard time seeing your point of view. If you’re angry or frustrated, take a break from the conversation. Excuse yourself, and go somewhere to cool off.”(当你勃然大怒时,你的父母很难理解你的观点。如果你生气或沮丧,从谈话中休息一下。为自己找个借口,找个地方冷静冷静。)可知,讲的是调整好自己的情绪。结合选项F项Gather your thoughts and try talking to your parents again.(整理一下思绪,再试着和你的父母谈谈。)意思一致,为该段内容的总结。故选F项。
【5题详解】
根据该段标题Be brave.(要勇敢。)提到勇气。以及下文“But your parents almost always can help you solve a problem or answer a big question, and you’ll almost always feel better afterward.”(但是你的父母几乎总是可以帮你解决一个问题或回答一个大问题,之后你几乎总是会感觉更好。)讲的是父母可以帮助你解决问题。结合选项G项You might have a question for long before you get up the courage to let it out.(在你鼓起勇气说出来之前,你可能会有一个问题想了很久。)为上下文语意的衔接,起到上下文的承上启下作用,上下文语意连贯。故选G项。
Passage 2
(24-25高一上·河南南阳一中·期中)
Benefits of Sports
Doing sports is a physical, mental and social adventure. The physical benefits of doing sports are probably the most obvious. Regardless of your fitness level when you start playing sports, you’ll notice an increase in your overall fitness once you’re involved. 1 Basketball players focus on strength training; football players work on speed while track athletes train through longer runs. The training process helps promote physical fitness and performances in competitions.
2 Playing sports also contributes to mental health, helping to increase confidence and self-worth. A pat on the back, high-five from a teammate, or handshake after a match really boosts a child’s confidence. Words of praise and encouragement from the coach, parents and other players raise the self-worth. 3 So after a game, it’s a better idea to ask “Did you enjoy the game?” rather than “Did you win?”
Children who participate in sports might also benefit from the social aspect, feeling part of a group, building up responsibility and leadership. 4 Teamwork involves both being dependable as a teammate and learning to rely on your teammates to achieve a positive outcome. Teamwork causes responsibility and challenges you to be responsible for your actions. Being part of a team gives you an opportunity to be a leader.
Discipline(自律) is another social advantage. Most organized sports require a strict training and practice schedule. As a student-athlete, you need to balance academics and athletics. 5 There is no shortage of reasons to find a sport to get involved in. Are you ready to go? Pick one and get moving!
A. It’s not just your body that benefits from sports.
B. Therefore, playing sports is going to make you more fit.
C. If you play group sports, you’ll be part of a team that takes direction from a coach.
D. But remember, a child’s self-worth should not be told apart by victory or loss.
E. Nearly every sport requires physical activity and the skills needed to be competitive.
F. Among these, learning how to function as part of a team is the most important advantage.
G. Only with strict discipline can you be successful both in the classroom and in the sports field.
【答案】1. E 2. A 3. D 4. F 5. G
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了体育运动的益处。
【1题详解】
根据后文“Basketball players focus on strength training; football players work on speed while track athletes train through longer runs. The training process helps promote physical fitness and performances in competitions.(篮球运动员注重力量训练;足球运动员训练速度,而田径运动员训练长距离跑。训练过程有助于提高身体素质和在比赛中的表现)”可知,篮球运动员注重力量训练;足球运动员提高速度,而田径运动员则通过长跑训练,几乎每一项运动都需要体力活动和具有竞争力的技能。E选项“几乎每项运动都需要体力活动和竞争所需的技能”符合语境,承接下文。故选E。
【2题详解】
根据后文“Playing sports contributes to mental health, helping to increase confidence and self-worth.(运动有助于心理健康,有助于增强自信和自我价值)”可知,后文说明了运动对心理的好处,本句是在说明运动受益的不仅仅是你的身体。A选项“从运动中受益的不仅仅是你的身体”符合语境,故选A。
【3题详解】
根据上文“Words of praise and encouragement from the coach, parents and other players raise the self-worth.(来自教练、父母和其他球员的表扬和鼓励提高了自我价值)”以及后文“So after a game, it’s a better idea to ask “Did you enjoy the game?” rather than “Did you win?”(所以在比赛结束后,最好问“你喜欢比赛吗?”而不是“你赢了吗?”)”可知,后文询问的是喜欢比赛,而不是获胜情况,推测让孩子不要太重视胜利或失败。D选项“但是请记住,孩子的自我价值不应该以胜利或失败来区分”符合语境,故选D。
【4题详解】
根据上文“Children who participate in sports might also benefit from the social aspect, feeling part of a group, building up accountability and leadership.(参加体育运动的孩子也可能从社会方面受益,感觉是团体的一部分,建立责任和领导能力)”以及后文“Teamwork involves both being dependable as a teammate and learning to rely on your teammates to achieve a positive outcome. Teamwork breeds responsibility and challenges you to be responsible for your actions. Being part of a team gives you an opportunity to be a leader.(团队合作既包括作为一个可靠的队友,也包括学会依靠你的队友来实现一个积极的结果。团队合作培养责任感,挑战你对自己的行为负责。成为团队的一员给了你成为领导者的机会)”可知,这里为承上启下句,说明成为团队成员的重要性。F选项“其中,学习如何作为团队的一员是最重要的优势”符合语境,故选F。
【5题详解】
根据上文“Discipline is another social advantage. Most organized sports require a strict training and practice schedule. As a student-athlete, you need to balance academics and athletics.(自律是另一个社会优势。大多数有组织的运动都需要严格的训练和练习计划。作为一名学生运动员,你需要平衡学业和运动)”可知,这里对本段进行总结,只有严格的纪律,你才能在课堂上和运动场上都取得成功。G选项“只有严格的纪律,你才能在课堂上和运动场上都取得成功”符合语境,故选G。

Passage 4
(24-25高一上·河南顶级名校·期中)
According to Jessica Hagy, author of How to Be Interesting, it’s not difficult to make yourself interesting at a dinner party.
1 , if you’re out of your comfort zone or if you’re wandering into somebody’s house for the first time. So the main thing is just to show up and be adventurous, trying different foods and talking to strangers.
People love to talk about themselves. If you can start the conversation with a question other than “What do you do for a living?”, you’ll be able to get a lot more interesting conversation out of whomever it is you’re talking to. 2 , it can bring in “I have this old, broken-down vehicle” or “I rode the bus with these crazy people who were laughing at silly jokes in the back.” It just opens up conversation.
3 ? If you can’t take their wine away, you should certainly try to take away their soapbox (讲台). If you’re the host, you can ask them to help you in the kitchen with something and just remove them from the situation. 4 .
And what about that other dinner-party killer: awkward silence? If you’re faced with an awkward silence at a dinner party, the only thing that always gets everyone talking again is to give the host a compliment (赞扬). 5 . Just quickly turn around and say, “This cake is extremely delicious and you have to tell me all about it.”
So being interesting at a dinner party isn’t that hard.
A. How do you know the host
B. The first step is to go exploring
C. If you ask the question “How did you get here?”
D. Be prepared to have awkward conversations with strangers
E. Or turn the conversation into a topic where they have little to say
F. What about that person who had too much to drink or won’t stop talking
G. He or she is the person who is feeling the weight of that awkwardness the most

Passage 2
(24-25高一上·河南新未来·期中)
A Few Simple Ways to Get Inspired
Many creative people are famous for their strange ways of finding inspiration (灵感). Inspiration is not easy to get, so it’s no wonder people chase (追逐) after it in strange ways. But you don’t have to go to extremes. 1
Keep an idea book or an inspiration board.
Inspiration might not come all at once. 2 With an idea book or a vision board, you can keep track of these puzzle pieces and use them to find inspiration later on. If you like working with words, create an idea book where you can write down ideas. If you’ re more visual (视觉的), take pictures that inspire you and turn them into a vision board.
3
Many people go to sleep and wake up inspired. While most sleep refreshes your brain, rapid eye movement (REM) sleep is especially good at prompting (推动) inspiration. Alternating between REM and non-REM sleep helps your brain reshape networks, making you more likely to think up ideas when you wake up.
Spend time in nature.
4 And nature has inspired a long line of artists. E. B. White came up with the story for Charlotte’s Web after watching a spider make her net. Researchers have also found that spending time in nature improves cognitive (认知的) ability, setting you up to make more connections between ideas.
Play and laugh.
Spending some of your free time with children can· bring inspiration closer to the surface. Your creativity decreases as you age, and children are experts in play, which is all about experimenting and opening up new possibilities. Looking at the world through open eyes can be a powerful source of creative inspiration. Humour and laughter can also lead to inspiration. 5
A. Go to sleep.
B Stick to your sleeping habit.
C. Even just reading a book could prompt inspiration.
D. Experts recommend using humour at work to get ideas.
E. You may experience tiny flashes that turn into something big.
F. Spending time outside can get you into a more open headspace.
G. Here are things you can try when your creative juices have run dry.

Passage 3
(24-25高一上·河南潢川·期中)
A learning log(日志) is an educational tool designed to improve children’s learning experience. 1 It can be applied by homeschoolers and other students accepting non-traditional education as well.
A learning log can be used in a variety of ways. For example, students might be asked to take five minutes at the end of the class to write in their learning logs about what they learned. 2 Learning logs can also be used for taking notes, or for responding to reading, classroom learning, and other forms of input.
Teachers and students can work together with a learning log to set clear goals and to record the processes used to achieve those goals. For example, at the beginning of the term, a student might sit down with a teacher and produce a list of topics which he or she should be familiar with by the end of the term. Learning logs can also be used to record out-of-class experiences. 3
Teachers may regularly check a student’s learning log to see areas where the student may need improvement. For example, a student struggling in a science class might not be frank about the issue. 4 Recording this issue would allow the teacher to customize a response to the student to help him or her improve.
5 Some learning logs include the recording of homework lists, which parents can use to monitor(监督) their children and make sure that they’re doing all of their homework. And parents can find whether their kids have any problems related to study. If they do have some, they can take measures to help them in time.
A. It can be used in common school environments.
B. Parents can find learning logs are really helpful.
C. The log-keeper can clearly see how he or she has progressed.
D. Students take part in a school project and record it in a learning log.
E. This provides an opportunity for students to organize their thoughts.
F. But the learning log could show that the student was failing to master some concepts.
G. Students can use them to record learning experiences which occur beyond the schoolyard.
【答案】1. A 2. E 3. G 4. F 5. B
【解析】

【3题详解】
空前的句子提到“Learning logs can also be used to record out-of-class experiences.(学习日志也可以用来记录课外经历)”,而G项Students can use them to record learning experiences which occur beyond the schoolyard.(学生可以用它们来记录发生在校园以外的学习经历。)可承接上文,进一步解释说明,并且G项中的“experiences which occurbeyond the schoolyard”与上一句中的“out-of-class experiences”呼应。故选G。
【4题详解】
空前的句子提到“For example, a student struggling in a science class might not be frank about the issue. (例如,在科学课上有困难的学生可能不会对这个问题(哪些地方需要改进)直言不讳)”,空后提到“Recording this issue would allow the teacher to customize a response to the student to help him or her improve.(将这个问题记录在案,教师就可以更有针对性地应对学生,帮助他或她改进)”,由此可知,该空与空前内容形成转折关系,而选项FThis provides an opportunity for students to organize their thoughts.(学习日志可以显示学生未掌握一些概念)的内容可以承上启下。故选F。
【5题详解】
由该段内容“Some learning logs include the recording of homework lists, which parents can use to monitor(监督) their children and make sure that they’re doing all of their homework. And parents can find whether their kids have any problems related to study. If they do have some, they can take measures to help them in time.(一些学习日志包括家庭作业清单的记录,家长可以使用这些清单来监控孩子,确保他们完成了所有的家庭作业。家长还可以发现孩子是否有任何与学习有关的问题。如果他们确实有一些,他们可以及时采取措施帮助他们。)”可知,本段内容主要说明了家长可以用学习日志来监督孩子,确认他们是否完成了所有的家庭作业。家长还可以通过学习日志发现孩子是否有任何与学习有关的问题,以便及时采取措施帮助他们,故B项Parents can find learning logs are really helpful.(家长会发现学习日志真的很有帮助。)可以概括本段的主要内容。故选B。
Passage 4
(24-25高一上·河南南阳六校·期中)
Everything that is stressful in the world keeps you up. 1 . Almost 40% of people worldwide have reported sleep problems over the past two years. It’s normal to wake up at night, but bad news can keep your mind active and make it hard to fall back asleep. Simple steps can help.
☆Test your pillow (枕头)
If you bought your pillow the year before last year, it’s already old. It is suggested that you should replace it every one to two years. A pillow past its best time can cause neck pain and give your brain pain signals (信号), resulting in restless sleep. 2 .
☆Get an hour of sunlight each day
Morning sunlight is important for good sleep. It controls the production of melatonin (褪黑素) in your brain. 3 . Aim for 15 to 30 minutes of direct light first thing and two 15-minute outdoor breaks during the day. The light tells your brain that it's time to be awake.
☆ 4
In a study, researchers followed 321 patients with high-salt diets and sleep problems for 12 weeks. When people cut down on salt, their average toilet trips reduced from twice a night to once. And those who ate more salt woke up more often to go to the bathroom.
☆Solve your troubles before dinner
5 . Heated discussions are less likely to influence your sleep if you start them earlier. Arguments can activate your sympathetic nervous system, which influences sleep. Some research even suggests that going to bed angry may make you bad-tempered (坏脾气的) the next morning.
A. Avoid salty foods before bed
B. Have some delicious food for dinner
C. This helps keep away from tiring morning feeling
D. It is no wonder many of us are struggling to sleep
E. We usually wake up more and get less sleep overall
F. If you need to argue about a problem, don’t wait until night
G. When your brain is receiving pain signals, it can’t send sleep signals at the same time
【答案】1. D 2. G 3. C 4. A 5. F
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一些可以帮助睡眠的建议。
【1题详解】
上文“Everything that is stressful in the world keeps you up.(世界上任何有压力的事情都会让你睡不着。)”以及下文“Almost 40% of people worldwide have reported sleep problems over the past two years.(在过去两年中,全球近40%的人报告了睡眠问题。)”说明任何有压力的事情都会让你睡不着,世界上有很多人都有睡眠问题,选项D“难怪我们很多人都难以入睡”承接上文,任何有压力的事情都会导致睡不着,有很多人难以入睡,同时引出下文,故选D项。
【2题详解】
上文“A pillow past its best time can cause neck pain and give your brain pain signals (信号), resulting in restless sleep.(过了最佳使用时间的枕头会引起颈部疼痛,并向你的大脑发出疼痛信号,导致睡眠不安稳。)”说明旧枕头会引起颈部疼痛,向大脑发出疼痛信号,导致睡不好,选项G“当你的大脑接收疼痛信号时,它不能同时发送睡眠信号”承接上文,对上文进行进一步解释,旧枕头引起颈部疼痛,向大脑发出疼痛信号,却不能同时发送睡眠信号,因此会导致睡不好。故选G项。
【3题详解】
上文“Morning sunlight is important for good sleep. It controls the production of melatonin (褪黑素) in your brain.(早晨的阳光对良好的睡眠很重要。它控制大脑中褪黑激素的产生。)”说明早上的阳光控制大脑中褪黑激素的产生,有助于睡眠,选项C“这有助于避免早晨疲劳的感觉”承接上文,早上的阳光可以避免早上的疲劳,故选C项。
【4题详解】
下文“In a study, researchers followed 321 patients with high-salt diets and sleep problems for 12 weeks. When people cut down on salt, their average toilet trips reduced from twice a night to once. And those who ate more salt woke up more often to go to the bathroom.(在一项研究中,研究人员对321名有高盐饮食和睡眠问题的患者进行了为期12周的跟踪调查。当人们减少盐的摄入量时,他们平均每晚上厕所的次数从两次减少到一次。而那些吃更多盐的人更频繁地醒来去洗手间。)”说明睡前避免吃含盐的食物有助于减少夜间上厕所的次数,选项A“睡前避免吃含盐的食物”能概括内容,为本段最佳小标题,故选A项。
【5题详解】
下文“Heated discussions are less likely to influence your sleep if you start them earlier. Arguments can activate your sympathetic nervous system, which influences sleep.(如果你早点开始,激烈的讨论不太可能影响你的睡眠。争吵会激活你的交感神经系统,从而影响睡眠。)”说明激烈的争论会影响睡眠,要在睡前解决问题,选项F“如果你需要争论一个问题,不要等到晚上”引出下文,争论不要等到晚上,如果早点开始,睡前解决问题就不会影响睡眠。故选F项。

Passage 1
(24-25高一上·河南洛阳·期中)
From schools to workplaces, we are told that ordinary negative emotions (情绪) and experiences — fear of failure, or sadness over a breakup, maybe — should be treated or forgotten. Feeling bad is bad.
1 . I don’t believe that forgetting bad feelings is the way to a good life. People are experiencing more than just everyday bad feelings right now. Many have lost jobs and loved ones and are feeling sad. But we have an opportunity here to get the benefits of negative emotions and experiences — and how we can use them for personal improvement instead of trying to push them away.
2 : Negative emotions exist to keep us safe. The primary negative emotions include sadness, anger, fear, and so on. We experience them in an involuntary way in response to environmental situations. You never say you are afraid. 3 . Of course, your system can be very active — you can have an anger-management problem or be fearful — but the broader point is: Although they aren’t fun, bad feelings are very important.
Negative emotions can also make us more effective in our day-to-day activities. Sadness is believed to be able to make us better at realizing reality in social situations. Sadness can even make us more productive at work by improving focus and helping us learn from mistakes. 4 .
Finally, negative emotions make us stronger for when there is a true trouble. Researchers ask people to participate in “stress inoculation (应急) training”. 5 . The result shows that the training is effective in creating emotional resilience (顺应性).
A. This is a mistake
B. Don’t push them away
C. Let’s start with a fairly clear point
D. This is how failure can help lead to later success
E. You just feel it and react with fight or flight, which can save your life
F. If we remove negative emotions from our lives, we will be poorer and weaker for having done so
G. In it people learn to deal with anger, fear, and anxiety by being faced with situations that cause these feelings
【答案】1. A 2. C 3. E 4. D 5. G
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要探讨了负面情绪的正面价值,以及如何利用这些情绪促进个人成长。
【1题详解】
由上文“From schools to workplaces, we are told that ordinary negative emotions (情绪) and experiences — fear of failure, or sadness over a breakup, maybe— should be treated or forgotten. Feeling bad is bad.(从学校到工作场所,我们被告知,普通的负面情绪和经历——对失败的恐惧,或者对分手的悲伤——应该被治疗或遗忘。感觉不好就是不好。)”及下文“I don’t believe that forgetting bad feelings is the way to a good life.(我不认为忘记不好的感觉是美好生活的方式。)”可知,上文提到应该忘记不好的感觉,而下文作者对此表示否定,本空应指出忘记不好的感觉是错误的。A选项“This is a mistake(这是一个错误)”能承上启下,符合题意。故选A。
【2题详解】
由下文“Negative emotions exist to keep us safe.(消极情绪的存在是为了保证我们的安全。)”可知,本段明确提出了负面情绪的第一个好处,即保证我们的安全的作用,本空应引起下文,点明这是负面情绪的相当明确的第一个好处,C选项“Let’s start with a fairly clear point(让我们从一个相当明确的点开始)”能引起下文,符合题意。故选C。
【3题详解】
由上文“You never say you are afraid.(你从不说你害怕。)”可知,上文提到你不会说你害怕,空处进一步解释人们面对害怕的反应和好处,E选项“You just feel it and react with fight or flight, which can save your life(你只是感觉到它,然后做出战斗或逃跑的反应,这可以挽救你的生命)”能承接上文,符合语境。故选E。
【4题详解】
由上文“Sadness can even make us more productive at work by improving focus and helping us learn from mistakes. (悲伤甚至可以提高我们的注意力,帮助我们从错误中学习,从而提高工作效率。)”可知,上文讲述了悲伤情绪的对于从错误中学习的好处,空处应承接上文,继续说明从错误中学习的好处,D选项“This is how failure can help lead to later success(这就是失败如何有助于以后的成功)”能承接上文,符合语境。故选D。
【5题详解】
由上文“Finally, negative emotions make us stronger for when there is a true trouble. Researchers ask people to participate in “stress inoculation (应急) training”. (最后,负面情绪使我们在真正遇到麻烦时变得更坚强。研究人员让人们参加“压力应急训练”。)”可知,上文提到“压力应急训练”,空处应具体解释说明这种训练的目标或内容。G选项“In it people learn to deal with anger, fear, and anxiety by being faced with situations that cause these feelings (在其中,人们学会了通过面对导致这些感觉的情况来应对愤怒、恐惧和焦虑)”能承接上文,符合语境。故选G。
