Passage 1
(24-25学年高一上·山东济宁兖州·期中)
Chinese people may not be that familiar with sports tourism, but it is one of the fastest growing parts of tourism, because an increasing number of people are expressing their curiosity in sports events during their trips even if sports are not the key reason for their travel. 1
Sports tourism refers to tourism including joining in or watching sports events and staying in an environment different from the usual tourist hotels or resorts. 2 At that time, people traveled to Olympia to watch or join in Olympic races. Modern sports tourism, on the other hand, surfaced in the 1990s.
3 There is also a lack (缺乏) of research to study its true potential. However, given that Chinese authorities attach great importance to people’s health, sports tourism, in many ways, can meet people’s needs for both relaxing and physical activity.
Also, sports tourism will improve the consumption (消费) upgrading at last, which will in turn lead to deeper hand-in-hand relationship between the tourism and culture. 4 It can not only meet tourists’ needs for outdoor activities, but also deepen their understanding of the heroic deeds of the people who sacrificed (牺牲) their lives for the nation.
Sports tourism is a flowering industry today, with a yearly growth speed of about 15 percent globally. 5 The rapid growth of sports tourism will help meet people’s relaxation needs and improve the high-quality development in China.
A.People are paying more attention to safety in travel.
B.However, sports tourism has drawn people’s attention in China.
C.The origin of sports tourism can be traced back to Ancient Greece.
D.Since it just appeared not long ago, it hasn’t drawn enough attention in China.
E.Marathons, hiking, cycling and camping fall in the area of sports tourism.
F.For example, hiking in “red tourism areas” has already become a part of sports tourism.
G.In China, however, the growth speed is 30-40 percent despite a slow beginning at first.
【答案】1.E 2.C 3.D 4.F 5.G

Passage 2
(24-25学年高一上·山东济宁一中·期中)
Tips for Getting More Deep Sleep
Deep sleep is an important part that helps sleepers wake up feeling energetic. Most deep sleep happens in the first hour or two of sleep. 1 Sleepers can follow scientific tips for healthy and deeper sleep and make simple changes on their own.Go to Bed on Time
Go to bed and wake up at the same time every day. While it may be attractive to stay up late or sleep in on weekends and other days off, research has shown that an inconsistent (不一致的) sleep-wake schedule affects people’s body clock. 2 Relax and Manage Stress
Stress and anxiety can make sleeping difficult. Calming activities that reduce stress may help people sleep more deeply. Relaxation exercises, deep breathing and yoga can naturally reduce anxiety and may improve sleep. 3 In addition to relaxing activities, sleepers should try to avoid discussing or thinking about stressful topics before getting into bed. 4
Caffeine and alcohol both reduce sleep quality and keep people from getting deep sleep. People who want to improve their sleep should avoid caffeine and alcohol in the evening. However, people who often drink large amounts of alcohol should talk to their doctors before quitting or cutting down on alcohol, as alcohol quitting can be dangerous.Keep a Comfortable Bedroom
5 Loud noises and bright lights in or near the sleeping environment may also make it difficult to get deep sleep. To get the best possible sleep, sleepers should keep their bedroom dark, quiet, and cool with a comfortable bed and pillows (枕头). Ear plugs (耳塞), sound machines, and blackout curtains may help people who live in noisy or bright locations.
A.Turn to Doctor When Necessary.
B.Avoid or Limit Caffeine and Alcohol.
C.Researchers found that anxious people have difficulty sleeping.
D.Instead, a consistent sleep schedule helps people fall asleep faster.
E.People in pain or discomfort often have difficulty getting deep sleep.
F.Taking a bath, reading, or listening to quiet music before bedtime also help a lot.
G.Therefore, habits that help people sleep faster may help them get more deep sleep.
【答案】1.G 2.D 3.F 4.B 5.E
【导语】这是一篇说明文,文章介绍了如何得到更多深度睡眠。
1.根据上文“Most deep sleep happens in the first hour or two of sleep. (大多数深度睡眠发生在睡眠的前一两个小时。)”可知,大多数深度睡眠发生在睡眠的前一两个小时,推知快速入睡能得到更多深度睡眠,G项“因此,有助于人们更快入睡的习惯可能有助于他们获得更多的深度睡眠。”符合语境,故选G。
2.根据本段主题句“Go to Bed on Time (按时上床睡觉)”和上文“research has shown that an inconsistent (不一致的) sleep-wake schedule affects people’s body clock (研究表明,不一致的睡眠-觉醒时间表会影响人们的生物钟)”可知,本段主要讲每天在同一时间睡觉和起床,上文介绍了睡眠时间不一致的危害,D项“相反,一致的睡眠时间表有助于人们更快入睡。”和本段主旨一致,且和上文形成对比,故选D。
3.上文“Relaxation exercises, deep breathing and yoga can naturally reduce anxiety and may improve sleep. (放松练习、深呼吸和瑜伽可以自然地减少焦虑,并可能改善睡眠。)”介绍了一些改善睡眠的活动,结合下文“In addition to relaxing activities, sleepers should try to avoid discussing or thinking about stressful topics before getting into bed. (除了放松的活动,睡觉的人应该尽量避免在睡觉前讨论或思考有压力的话题。)”可知,空处和上文并列,都是介绍有助于睡眠的放松活动,F项“睡前洗个澡、看书或听听安静的音乐也有很大帮助。”符合语境,故选F。
4.空处是段落小标题,根据本段内容,尤其是“People who want to improve their sleep should avoid caffeine and alcohol in the evening. (想要改善睡眠质量的人应该避免在晚上摄入咖啡因和酒精。)”可知,本段是建议避免摄入咖啡因和酒精,B项“避免或限制咖啡因和酒精。”符合语境,故选B。
5.根据下文“Loud noises and bright lights in or near the sleeping environment may also make it difficult to get deep sleep. (在噪音和强光的睡眠环境或在其附近也可能使人难以进入深度睡眠)”中的“also”可知,空处也是描述使人难以进入深度睡眠的情况,E项“疼痛或不适的人通常难以进入深度睡眠。”符合语境,故选E。
Passage 3
(24-25学年高一上·山东省实验中学·期中)
Did you take part in a camp this summer ? 1 To choose which camp is best for you, first you must do a bit of research.
Maybe you've never thought about it before, but every great summer camp has the same main goals — opportunity, challenge and growth.
Opportunity means you are given a chance to do something special. 2 For example, if you are interested in writing, then you can choose to join a journalism camp. You may even have the opportunity to meet famous journalists there.
3 You must finish the task and succeed in overcoming the challenge. Then you will have a sense of accomplishment. For example, you could take a lifeguard course at some summer camps. If you pass the exam, then you will receive a certificate (证书)to become a real lifeguard.
This also leads to the third and most important goal of every great summer camp personal growth. It doesn’t mean growing taller and stronger or more beautiful. It means seeing yourself improve, learning something new and doing something you didn’t know you could do before. 4 .
So in the future, when choosing your next summer camp, remember to ask yourself: Is it a special opportunity? Is it a challenge? Will I grow?
5 These will all happen naturally when you have the right goals at summer camp.
A.Challenge means you are given a task.
B.It also means becoming more confident in yourself.
C.Some camps focus on developing a certain skill or ability.
D.But what about friendship, fun and joy?
E.There are so many summer camps and not all of them are the same.
F.Of course, summer camps aren't all about adventure or study.
G.It also makes you special because other kids don't have the same opportunity.
【答案】1.E 2.G 3.A 4.B 5.D
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章要求你选择最适合你的夏令营。也许你以前从未想过,但每一个伟大的夏令营都有同样的主要目标——机遇、挑战和成长。
1.下文提示“要选择哪个阵营对你来说是最好的,首先你必须做一些研究。”承接下文,E项There are so many summer camps and not all of them are the same.“有这么多夏令营,但并不是所有的夏令营都是一样的。”切题。该项中的not all of them are the same.与To choose which camp is best for you,相吻合。故选E。
2.上文提示“机会意味着你有机会做一些特别的事情。”承接上文,G项It also makes you special because other kids don't have the same opportunity.“这也让你与众不同,因为其他孩子没有同样的机会。”切题。关键词opportunity。故选G。
3.下文提示“你必须完成这项任务,并成功地克服挑战。”承接下文,A项Challenge means you are given a task.“挑战意味着你被赋予了一项任务。”切题。关键词Challenge和task。故选A。
4.上文提示“这意味着看到你自己进步,学习新的东西,做一些你以前不知道你可以做的事情。”承接上文,B项It also means becoming more confident in yourself.“这也意味着你对自己更有信心。”切题。关键词also将上下句连在一起。故选B。
5.上文提示“这是一个特殊的机会吗?这是一个挑战吗?我能长大吗?”下文提示“当你在夏令营中有正确的目标时,这些都会自然而然地发生。”承接上下文,D项But what about friendship, fun and joy?“但是友谊、乐趣和快乐呢?”切题。该项中的But用转折关系和上文连在一起;下文中的These指的就是该项内容what about friendship, fun and joy? 故选D。
【点睛】做七选五时“当心文中小also”,also是“也”的意思,这就说明前文一定存在它的一个分支了,本题第4小题,前文交代“It means seeing yourself improve, learning something new and doing something you didn’t know you could do before.”虽然看上去很长的一句话,但是重点就三个单词“seeing yourself improve”,此时在空中填上“It also means becoming more confident in yourself.”,(关键词It also means becoming more confident)这样一对应就很工整了。当然“also”只是一个代表罢了,可以表示递进的词还有很多:what’ more, besides, in addition等等。
主题02 人与自我——生活与学习
Passage 1
(24-25学年高一上·山东青岛·期中)
A large number of people start experiencing strong loneliness in the few month following their graduation. Many people mistakenly think that loneliness can be ended by having more friends or by meeting new people. 1 So what causes loneliness and why do so many people experience it right after graduation?
2 Some of the main characteristics of a close relationship are common interests, openness and common life challenges. During college or high school years, most of the people in a group will have the same problem, so they can talk about their common problems, think together of solutions and even help each other go through them. 3
However, after graduation each person usually takes a different path and finds himself fighting his own unique battle. Problems become no longer common between the same group of people because each of them develops his own special ones. Friends can become less connected to each other when each one of them lives a different life. 4
In such a case two things can be done. You can either share your new problems with your old friends and make sure you listen to theirs or you can make more friends at your new job to share with them what’s going on in your new stage of life. 5 When you do so, stick to them, share your problems with them and you will never feel lonely.
A.What happens to the same group after graduation?
B.Loneliness can never appear in such an environment.
C.This gradually reduces closeness and promotes loneliness.
D.In fact, a person with quite a few friends can still feel lonely.
E.Loneliness happens when you don’t have close relationships.
F.The key is to find people who are fighting the same battle as you.
G.How long it lasts relies on what actions you will take during that period.
【答案】1.D 2.E 3.A 4.C 5.F
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要探讨了人们在毕业后常常会感到孤独的原因,并给出了应对建议。
1.上文“Many people mistakenly think that loneliness can be ended by having more friends or by meeting new people.(很多人错误地认为,多交朋友或结识新朋友可以消除孤独感)”提出人们对于消除孤独感的普遍错误看法,D选项“In fact, a person with quite a few friends can still feel lonely.(事实上,一个有相当多朋友的人仍然会感到孤独)”与上文构成转折关系,给出正确观点,指出即使有很多朋友,人们仍然可能会感到孤独,从而引出下文对孤独原因和应对方法的探讨。故选D项。
2.下文“Some of the main characteristics of a close relationship are common interests, openness and common life challenges.(亲密关系的主要特征包括共同的兴趣、开放性和共同的生活挑战)”开始阐述亲密关系的特点,E选项“Loneliness happens when you don’t have close relationships.(当你没有亲密关系时,孤独就会发生)”引出下文主题,即孤独与缺乏亲密关系有关,上下文语意连贯。故选E项。
3.上文“During college or high school years, most of the people in a group will have the same problem, so they can talk about their common problems, think together of solutions and even help each other go through them.(在大学或高中时期,一个群体中的大多数人都会有同样的问题,所以他们可以谈论他们的共同问题,一起思考解决方案,甚至互相帮助度过难关)”描述了在校期间人们因为共同问题而紧密相连的情况,A选项“What happens to the same group after graduation?(同样的一群人在毕业后会怎样呢?)”承接上文,引出下一段中“However, after graduation each person usually takes a different path and finds himself fighting his own unique battle.(然而,毕业后每个人通常会走上不同的道路,发现自己在进行着一场独特的战斗)”对毕业后人们关系变化的分析,上下文语意连贯。故选A项。
4.上文“Friends can become less connected to each other when each one of them lives a different life.(当每个人过着不同的生活时,朋友之间的联系就会减少)”指出毕业后朋友之间联系减少的现象,C选项“This gradually reduces closeness and promotes loneliness.(这逐渐减少了亲密感,促进了孤独感)”进一步解释这一现象导致的后果,即亲密感的减少和孤独感的增加,且句中指示代词“This”指代上文“become less connected to each other”这一情况。故选C项。
5.上文“You can either share your new problems with your old friends and make sure you listen to theirs or you can make more friends at your new job to share with them what’s going on in your new stage of life.(你可以和你的老朋友分享你的新问题,并确保你倾听他们的问题,或者你可以在新工作中结交更多朋友,与他们分享你新生活阶段的情况)”提出了两种应对孤独的方法,F选项“The key is to find people who are fighting the same battle as you.(关键是要找到和你打着同样“仗”的人)”总结上文,指出无论是与老朋友还是新朋友分享,关键在于找到有共同经历或挑战的人。故选F项。
Passage 2
(24-25学年高一上·山东潍坊·期中)
I have a terrible sense of direction, so without the guide of GPS — the Global Positioning System — not only would I be lost, but also I’d feel lost. 1 . If you want to get confidence on the road or be less dependent on GPS to get around, here are some steps you can take to improve your sense of direction.
Turn off your GPS and get lost on purpose. Next time you go for a walk, go down a road you’ve not walked and see where it ends up or take the beautiful road to your favorite restaurant or coffee shop. 2 . The goal is to get comfortable with getting lost and moving through the world without a map.
Use landmarks to guide yourself. Not sure if you’re north, south, east or west from home? 3 . The perfect landmark is large and far away, like a big sign, a highway, or a bridge which can serve as a better mark of direction.
Use memory tricks (技巧) to remember where you are. People with a good sense of direction know their streets. If you have no sense of direction, you can try some expert methods. Keep street names and roads in mind by using stories and tricks to lock things in. 4 .
These methods may not turn you into an expert guide able to find your way out of being lost. 5 . And you can use them to gain a better sense of ownership over your environment.
A.Driving with GPS brings trouble sometimes.
B.Pick landmarks in town to help guide yourself.
C.But they can reduce any anxiety about getting lost.
D.It gives you an idea of how the streets are connected.
E.Then see if you can make it back home without a GPS.
F.This is especially helpful when street names are hard to know.
G.However, dependence on GPS can lead to a narrower view of your environment.
【答案】1.G 2.E 3.B 4.F 5.C
【导语】本文为一篇说明文,介绍了不利用GPS,培养方向感的一些方法。
1.前文“I have a terrible sense of direction, so without the guide of GPS — the Global Positioning System — not only would I be lost, but also I’d feel lost.(我的方向感很差,所以如果没有GPS(全球定位系统)的指引,我不仅会迷路,而且会感到迷路)”可知,作者描述自己方向感很差,需要借助GPS引导;后文“If you want to get confidence on the road or be less dependent on GPS to get around, here are some steps you can take to improve your sense of direction.(如果你想在路上获得信心,或者少依赖GPS出行,这里有一些你可以采取的步骤来提高你的方向感)”表明下文介绍减少对于GPS的依赖提高自身方向感的措施,推断空处应该写出依赖GPS的坏处,G选项“然而,对GPS的依赖会导致你对环境的视野更窄”与前文转折,说明对于GPS依赖的坏处。故选G。
2.前文“Next time you go for a walk, go down a road you’ve not walked and see where it ends up or take the beautiful road to your favorite restaurant or coffee shop.(下次你去散步的时候,走一条你没走过的路,看看它会停在哪里,或者走一条美丽的路去你最喜欢的餐厅或咖啡店)”表明步行时要走一条从未走过的路,不依赖GPS,E选项“然后看看你能不能在没有GPS的情况下回家”同样表明不用GPS的情况,符合语境。故选E。
3.前文“Not sure if you’re north, south, east or west from home?(不确定你是在家的北、南、东还是西边)”引出问题,空处引提出解决方案,结合后文“The perfect landmark is large and far away, like a big sign, a highway, or a bridge which can serve as a better mark of direction.(完美的地标是又大又远的,像一个大的标志,一条公路或一座桥,可以作为更好的方向标志)”可知,空处应表示利用路标,B选项“选择城里的地标来帮助你自己”符合语境。故选B。
4.前文“Keep street names and roads in mind by using stories and tricks to lock things in.(使用故事和技巧来记住街道名称和道路,以便在需要时能够迅速找到它们)”表示可以通过记住街道名称和道路来认路,F选项“当街道名称很难知道时,这尤其有用”中This指代“使用故事和技巧来记住街道名称和道路”,同样表示利用街道名称和道路来认路。故选F。
5.前文“These methods may not turn you into an expert guide able to find your way out of being lost.(这些方法可能无法让你成为一名能够在迷路时找到出路的专家导游)”表明这些方法不会让自己成为专家导游,空处应描述这些方法的实际用处,C选项“但它们可以减少迷路的焦虑”符合语境,与前文语境一致。故选C。

Passage 1
(24-25学年高一上·山东枣庄·期中)
Friends play a very important part in everyone’s life. Friendship usually develops during childhood. New friends are made when you progress through school. 1 Friends influence your development, maturity (成熟) and the sense of responsibility.
A familiar opinion is “You can tell a lot about a person by knowing who his friends are.” 2 If you like sports, most of your friends are likely to be active. If you enjoy reading and shopping, most of your friends do the same.
3 These people are not really friends. They are only “friends” on the outside, not the inside where it counts. Superficial (表面的) friends only want to be your friends if it is to their advantage. True friends are there whether you are rich or poor. 4 By this time you should be able to recognize your friends as the “real” or the “false”.
5 Sometimes they might not be easy to find, so you can consider yourself very lucky if you have one true friend. This friend is eager to help you whenever necessary. He or she knows you would do the same for them. A true friend is someone you can talk to about any subject or problem. You and your true friend have good understanding of each other. True friends support you, take your side, and build up your confidence.
A.True friends are most special.
B.You are lucky to find your friends in school.

(朋友影响你的成长、成熟和责任感。)”可知,本空应承上启下,强调学生时期的朋友的重要性。G选项“Those friends that you make as a student can usually last long. (学生时代结交的朋友通常会持续很长时间。)”说明了学生时期建立的友谊往往能持续很久,能承上启下,符合语境。故选G。
2.由上文“A familiar opinion is “You can tell a lot about a person by knowing who his friends are. (一个熟悉的观点是“你可以通过知道一个人的朋友是谁来了解他。”)”可知,本空应该具体解释这一观点。C选项“Friendship is really based on common interests. (友谊实际上是基于共同的兴趣。)”解释了为什么通过了解一个人的朋友可以了解这个人,因为人们往往会和有共同兴趣的人成为朋友,能承接上文,符合题意。故选C。
3.由下文“These people are not really friends. They are only “friends” on the outside, not the inside where it counts. Superficial (表面的) friends only want to be your friends if it is to their advantage. True friends are there whether you are rich or poor. (这些人不是真正的朋友。他们只是表面上的“朋友”,而不是内心的“朋友”。肤浅的朋友只有在对他们有利的情况下才愿意和你做朋友。真正的朋友是在那里,无论你是富有还是贫穷。)”可以推断出,这里应该是在讨论那些不是真正朋友的人。F选项“Some people call you their friends for the wrong reasons.

5.由下文“Sometimes they might not be easy to find, so you can consider yourself very lucky if you have one true friend. This friend is eager to help you whenever necessary. He or she knows you would do the same for them. A true friend is someone you can talk to about any subject or problem. You and your true friend have good understanding of each other. True friends support you, take your side, and build up your confidence.

Passage 3
(24-25学年高一上·山东聊城·期中)
A trust fall is a group exercise in which a person allows himself or herself to fall on purpose in order to be caught by someone or others in the group. The exercise is used by groups, organizations, and businesses to give the persons involved a sense of trust in one another. 1
In a typical trust fall exercise, group members form a circle around the person who is to fall. He or she should stand close enough to catch the person. Meanwhile, he or she must be far enough away from the falling person to allow for an almost complete fall.
3 The person who is to fall stands straight and then simply leans backward. He or she is not to try in any way to slow or prevent the fall. When injuries do occur, they are usually the result of panic on the part of the falling person, or the failure of the special person who can not safely catch the falling person.
Generally, the ending of a trust fall exercise is marked by a question and answer meeting. 4 They are also encouraged to talk about how it makes them feel.
A number of individuals are convinced that trust falls don’t effectively build trust. The exercise is in a controlled environment in which the participants are expected to act in a trustworthy manner. They are also in the presence of all their members. 5 However, group leaders point out that the exercise creates a shared sense of purpose among the participants, from which lasting trust grows as they continue to work together.
A.First, divide the group into pairs.
B.These seem to make the result less reliable.
C.In some senses, trust falls carry a certain risk.
D.Then a special person is asked to catch the falling person.
E.The person may fear to fall into the arms of other members.
F.It is also designed to build team spirit to help the group achieve its goals.
G.Group members are asked to comment on what the exercise means to them.
【答案】1.F 2.D 3.C 4.G 5.B

1.根据上文“A trust fall is a group exercise in which a person allows himself or herself to fall on purpose in order to be caught by someone or others in the group. The exercise is used by groups, organizations, and businesses to give the persons involved a sense of trust in one another.(“信任跌落”是一种集体练习,一个人故意让自己摔倒,以便被小组中的某人或其他人抓住。这个练习被团体、组织和企业用来给参与其中的人一种相互信任的感觉)”可知,上文提到了“信任跌落”的应用,本句为本段最后一句,故应承接上文继续说明“信任跌落”的其他应用,且上文中The exercise可对应到F选项中It,故F选项“它也被设计来建立团队精神,以帮助团队实现其目标”符合语境。故选F。
2.根据上文“In a typical trust fall exercise, group members form a circle around the person who is to fall.(在典型的“信任跌落”练习中,小组成员围着将要跌落的人组成一个圈)”以及后文“He or she should stand close enough to catch the person. Meanwhile, he or she must be far enough away from the falling person to allow for an almost complete fall.(他或她应该站得足够近以抓住那个人。与此同时,他或她必须与坠落者保持足够远的距离,以使其几乎完全跌落)”由此可知,本段主要在说明“信任跌落”的操作过程,上文中the person who is to fall可对应到D选项中the falling person。故D选项“然后请一个特别的人接住跌落的人”符合语境。故选D。
3.根据后文“The person who is to fall stands straight and then simply leans backward. He or she is not to try in any way to slow or prevent the fall. When injuries do occur, they are usually the result of panic on the part of the falling person, or the failure of the special person who can not safely catch the falling person.(即将倒下的人笔直地站着,然后只是向后倾。他或她不应该试图以任何方式减缓或防止坠落。当受伤发生时,通常是由于坠落者的恐慌,或者是特别的人无法安全接住坠落者造成的)”可知,本段主要是在说明“信任跌落”这个活动的一些危险性。故C选项“从某种意义上说,“信任跌落”带有一定的风险”符合语境。故选C。
4.根据后文“They are also encouraged to talk about how it makes them feel.(他们也被鼓励谈论自己的感受)”可知,本段主要说明的是“信任跌落”活动后,小组成员被要求做的事情,且后文They可对应到G选项中Group members。故G选项“小组成员被要求评论这个练习对他们的意义”符合语境。故选G。
5.根据前文“A number of individuals are convinced that trust falls don’t effectively build trust. The exercise is in a controlled environment in which the participants are expected to act in a trustworthy manner. They are also in the presence of all their members.(许多人相信信任的下降并不能有效地建立信任。演习是在一个受控的环境中进行的,参与者被期望以一种值得信赖的方式行事。他们也在所有成员面前)”以及后文“However, group leaders point out that the exercise creates a shared sense of purpose among the participants, from which lasting trust grows as they continue to work together.(然而,小组领导指出,这项练习在参与者中创造了一种共同的使命感。在他们继续合作的过程中,彼此之间的信任会不断增长)”可知,上文提到一些人认为信任跌落并不能真正建立信任,且给出了理由,后文则提到小组领导指出在这个过程中,彼此之间的信任会不断增长,however表示前后的转折,说明本句是在认同上一段中提到的种种因素使得信任跌落的结果不可靠的观点。故B选项“这些似乎使结果不太可靠”符合语境。故选B。

Passage 1
(24-25学年高一上·山东济宁邹城·期中)
Festivals and concerts attract huge crowds, and are popular with people. But once a crowd reaches six or seven people per square meter, some may be crushed (挤压) against each other so tightly that they cannot move. Experts refer to such an accident as a crowd crush. This can become very dangerous. 1
First of all, try not to panic (惊慌) and save your energy. 2 Stay calm and focused. If there is a crowd crush, you’ll need all the physical energy you can gather. Yelling and shouting will tire you out.
It’s best to go with the flow (流动) when the crowd is moving in one direction. 3 If the group crowds together tightly, you will run out of air with the heavy weight over chest and the airway to your lungs will be blocked. In other words, your breathing will be prevented because of all the outside pressure.
If you fall down in a large crowd, try to get up as quickly as possible. If you can’t, get into the right position. 4 In this way, you can protect yourself and avoid being hurt when lying on the ground.
Crowd crushes happen at different types of gatherings around the world. 5 With some preparations and the suggestions above, you can avoid being one of the people who don’t make it out.
A.Move to a safer place.
B.So how can you lower the risk of injuries?
C.But they can be completely avoided in advance.
D.You should run faster to catch up with other people.
E.If you don’t, the crowd behind you could crush you.
F.Panic will not help you free yourself from a crowd crush.
G.Cover your head with your arms and fold your legs in front of your body.

But once a crowd reaches six or seven people per square meter, some may be crushed (挤压) against each other so tightly that they cannot move. Experts refer to such an accident as a crowd crush. This can become very dangerous.(节日和音乐会吸引了大量的人群,受到人们的欢迎。但一旦人群达到每平方米六七人,有些人可能会被挤得太紧而无法移动。专家把这种事故称为人群拥挤。这会变得非常危险)”可知,上文提到人群挤压的危险,结合后文给出的应对措施可知,本句为过渡句,引出如何降低受伤风险。故B选项“那么,怎样才能降低受伤的风险呢?”符合语境,故选B。
2.根据前文“First of all, try not to panic and save your energy.(首先,尽量不要惊慌,节省精力)”可知,此处是讲惊慌没有好处,所以选项F“恐慌不会帮助你从拥挤的人群中解脱出来。”切合文意。故选F。
3.根据前文“It’s best to go with the flow when the crowd is moving in one direction.(当人群朝一个方向移动时,最好是随波逐流)”和后文“If the group crowds together tightly, you will run out of air with the heavy weight over chest and the airway to your lungs will be blocked.(如果一群人挤得太紧,你会因为胸部的压力而耗尽空气,通往肺部的气道也会被阻塞)”可知,此处是指如果不随人群的方向走就会被挤到,所以选项E“如果你不这样做,你身后的人群可能会挤压你”切合文意。故选E。
4.根据前文“If you can’t, get in the right position.(如果你不能,那就找一个合适的位置)”和后文“you can protect your head and not be knocked when lying on the ground(当你躺在地上时,你可以保护你的头,不被撞到)”可知,此处是指找到一个合适的姿势保护自己的头部,所以选项G“背部向前弯曲,双臂和双腿交叉在身体前方。”切合文意。故选G。
5.根据前文“Crowd crushes happen at various types of gatherings around the world.(世界各地的各种聚会都会发生挤人事件)”和后文“With some preparations and the suggestions above, you can avoid being one of the people who don’t make it out.(有了上面的一些准备和建议,你就可以避免成为无法成功的人之一)”可知,此处是指挤人事件可以预见和预防,所以选项C“但它们是完全可以预测的,并且可以提前预防”切合文意。故选C。
Passage 2
(20-21学年高一上·山东泰安一中·期中)
Robotic comedy
It seems you can ask artificial intelligence (AI) programs anything, and they’ll give you an answer back. So, can they tell jokes? This question was raised when UK comedian Karen Hobbs performed in late June. Instead of the usual jokes she created, Hobbs told jokes written by ChatGPT. 1 .
Hobbs said that when she asked ChatGPT for a joke, what it provided was a man joking about being impatient with his shopping-obsessed (痴迷于购物的) girlfriend. 2 , the joke was still about a shopping-obsessed girlfriend, just told from the first-person perspective (角度).
3 , as males dominate the field of comedy. The BBC commented that AI storytelling can only reproduce information that already exists in some form, although it can produce some never-before-seen combinations (结合) of ideas. “One way that AI can tell jokes is to do what any 5-year-old does — repeat a successful joke they’ve heard or try to make an obvious variation (变化) of it,” said Les Carr, a professor of web science.
Nonetheless, a good joke in real life can always adjust to the audience’s feedback, which often leads comedians to improvise (即兴创作). 4 . For instance, in improv, there is no space for premeditation (预先策划); the comedian must rely only on their instinctive (直觉的) reaction to the audience.
“A well-done stand-up bit can lead the audience through a funny story all the way to a hilarious punchline (令人捧腹的妙语),” Michael Ryan, a student researching AI’s impact on comedy, explained to the BBC. “The whole time the comedian knew exactly where he or she was going with the joke and brought the audience there.”
5 . Research is already ongoing with the goal of giving AI a greater understanding of the world around it, which makes the future of AI jokes still uncertain.
A.The process made her nervous
B.However, this could all change
C.It’s certain that AI can become genuinely funny
D.Even when she asked to switch to the woman’s perspective
E.This, unfortunately, is beyond the current capabilities of AI
F.She could thus finish the job more efficiently and creatively
G.It’s no surprise that many jokes come from a male perspective in online materials
【答案】1.A 2.D 3.G 4.E 5.B
【导语】本文是一篇科技报道。文章主要讨论了人工智能(AI)在喜剧创作,特别是讲笑话方面的能力和局限性,以及未来可能的发展。
1.根据上文内容“It seems you can ask artificial intelligence(AI)programs anything, and they’ll give you an answer back. So, can they tell jokes? This question was raised when UK comedian Karen Hobbs performed in late June. Instead of the usual jokes she created, Hobbs told jokes written by ChatGPT.(似乎你可以问人工智能(AI)程序任何问题,它们都会给你一个答案。那么,他们会讲笑话吗?这个问题是在英国喜剧演员Karen Hobbs6月底表演时提出的。Hobbs没有讲她自己编的笑话,而是讲了ChatGPT编写的笑话。)”可知,上文提出一个问题,即人工智能是否会讲笑话;而下文则讲述了Hobbs讲述的ChatGPT编写的笑话。选项A“The process made her nervous(这个过程让她很紧张。)”承上启下,引出下文具体的ChatGPT讲述的故事。故选A。
2.根据下文“the joke was still about a shopping- obsessed girlfriend, just told from the first- person perspective(角度).(这个笑话仍然是关于购物狂女友的,只是从第一人称的角度讲述。)”可推测,空处和讲笑话的角度有关。选项D“Even when she asked to switch to the woman’s perspective(即使她要求切换到女性的角度)”与下文内容相符,指出了Karen Hobbs对笑话的视角有所要求,但结果并未完全改变。故选D。
3.分析句子成分可知,空处为主句。再根据下文“as males dominate the field of comedy.(因为男性在喜剧领域占主导地位。)”可知,空处和男性视角有关。选项G“It’s no surprise that many jokes come from a male perspective in online materials(在线材料中的许多笑话都不足为奇地来自男性视角)”与下文内容一致,指出网上很多笑话的材料都来自男性视角是因为男性在喜剧领域占主导地位。故选G。
4.根据空前内容“Nonetheless, a good joke in real life can always adjust to the audience’s feedback, which often leads comedians to improvise(即兴创作).(然而,在现实生活中,一个好的笑话总是可以根据观众的反馈进行调整,这常常让喜剧演员即兴创作。)”可知,在现实生活中,喜剧演员需要即兴创作。选项E“This, unfortunately, is beyond the current capabilities of AI(不幸的是,这超出了当前人工智能的能力范围。)”与上文内容相符,指出喜剧演员需要即兴创作,但是这超出了人工智能的能力范围。同时与下文所举例子“For instance, in improvise, there is no space for premeditation(预先策划); the comedian must rely only on their instinctive(直觉的)reaction to the audience. (例如,在即兴喜剧中,没有预先策划的空间;喜剧演员必须只依靠他们对观众的直觉反应。)”一致。故选E。
5.根据空后内容“Research is already ongoing with the goal of giving AI a greater understanding of the world around it, which makes the future of AI jokes still uncertain(研究正在进行中,目的是让人工智能更好地理解周围的世界,这使得人工智能笑话的未来仍然不确定。)”可知,空处指出研究正在进行中,目的是让人工智能更好地理解周围的世界,这使得人工智能笑话的未来仍然不确定。因此,这里需要一个句子来引出这一观点。选项B“However, this could all change(然而,这一切都可能改变。)”与上文内容形成转折,即人工智能有一定局限性;同时引出下文,指出研究人员会进一步研究人工智能已让其更好地理解周围的世界。故选B。

Passage 1
(24-25学年高一上·山东菏泽·期中)
Rain is pouring hard and fast — more than eight inches in just an hour, turning river water brown with mud. Earthworms (蚯蚓) move up to the ground as the soil becomes too wet for them. 1
During a rainstorm, the water that comes from rain goes to different places. Some of it runs off into rivers, lakes, or city watercourses. Other water evaporates (蒸发) and returns to the atmosphere. 2 It runs through the top surface of the ground, to the part of plants that grows below the surface.
Floods can form slowly over several days or can flood an area with little warning. Slow-forming river flooding happens in floodplains (漫滩). When big storms hit, the water floods over the banks and spreads out across the plains. It brings nutrients (营养物) to the soil, which is good for growing crops. 3 However, too much water can destroy crops and damage homes.
Another type of flooding is called a flash flood, when a flood happens within six hours of a heavy rainfall — as much as eight inches an hour. With no place to go, the moving water will run quickly through highways, and wash away cars, roads, bridges, and houses. 4 On coastlines, hurricane rains cause water levels to rise, and the high winds push that water onto land. This also causes flash flooding.
5 If flooding has already started where you are, move to the highest place you can find. Bring as much food and water as possible. Never walk through flood water, especially if it’s moving. If you must walk through water to get away, walk where the water is still.
A.A flood might be coming.
B.How can you survive a flood?
C.What should you prepare for a flood?
D.But much of the rainwater is taken in by soil.
E.That’s why many people live in or near floodplains.
F.The soil would become too wet to take in more water.
G.Quickly melting ice and snow can also cause flash flooding.
【答案】1.A 2.D 3.E 4.G 5.B
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了雨量过大时,各种类型的洪水形成原因及其对环境的影响,以及如何在洪水中保护自己。
1.由上文“Rain is pouring hard and fast — more than eight inches in just an hour, turning river water brown with mud. Earthworms move up to the ground as the soil becomes too wet for them. (大雨倾盆而下,仅仅一个小时就下了8英寸多,河水被泥土染成了棕色。蚯蚓爬上地面,因为土壤对它们来说太湿了。)”可知,上文描述的急速降水、河流变色、蚯蚓爬上地面的现象,这暗示了一个恶劣天气状况下的紧急情况。空处承上启下,需要一个句子来警告或指出这种情况可能导致的结果,A选项“A flood might be coming. (洪水可能要来了。)”指出暴雨可能导致洪水到来的风险,起到了警示作用,能承接上文,符合语境。故选A。
2.由上文“During a rainstorm, the water that comes from rain goes to different places. Some of it runs off into rivers, lakes, or city watercourses. Other water evaporates and returns to the atmosphere. (在暴雨期间,雨水会流向不同的地方。其中一些流入河流、湖泊或城市水道。其他的水蒸发并返回到大气中。)”和下文“It runs through the top surface of the ground, to the part of plants that grows below the surface.

It brings nutrients to the soil, which is good for growing crops. (缓慢形成的河流洪水发生在洪泛区。当暴风雨来袭时,洪水淹没了河岸,蔓延到平原上。它给土壤带来养分,这对种植作物有好处。)”可知,缓慢形成的河流洪水发生在漫滩上,带来土壤养分,有利于作物生长。空处应与洪水带来的正面影响有关,E选项“That’s why many people live in or near floodplains. (这就是为什么许多人生活在洪泛区或附近。)”解释了为什么许多人选择居住在或靠近漫滩,因为洪水带来的好处,能承接上文,符合语境。故选E。
4.由上文“Another type of flooding is called a flash flood, when a flood happens within six hours of a heavy rainfall — as much as eight inches an hour. With no place to go, the moving water will run quickly through highways, and wash away cars, roads, bridges, and houses. (另一种类型的洪水被称为山洪,当暴雨发生后6小时内发生洪水——每小时多达8英寸。由于无处可去,流动的水会迅速流过高速公路,冲走汽车、道路、桥梁和房屋。)”和下文“On coastlines, hurricane rains cause water levels to rise, and the high winds push that water onto land. This also causes flash flooding. (在海岸线上,飓风降雨导致水位上升,强风将水推到陆地上。这也会导致山洪暴发。)”可知,上文和下文都介绍了洪水形成的原因。空处应与洪水的其他成因有关,G选项“Quickly melting ice and snow can also cause flash flooding.

(24-25学年高一上·济宁一中·期中)
Tips for Getting More Deep Sleep
Deep sleep is an important part that helps sleepers wake up feeling energetic. Most deep sleep happens in the first hour or two of sleep. 1 Sleepers can follow scientific tips for healthy and deeper sleep and make simple changes on their own.Go to Bed on Time
Go to bed and wake up at the same time every day. While it may be attractive to stay up late or sleep in on weekends and other days off, research has shown that an inconsistent (不一致的) sleep-wake schedule affects people’s body clock. 2 Relax and Manage Stress
Stress and anxiety can make sleeping difficult. Calming activities that reduce stress may help people sleep more deeply. Relaxation exercises, deep breathing and yoga can naturally reduce anxiety and may improve sleep. 3 In addition to relaxing activities, sleepers should try to avoid discussing or thinking about stressful topics before getting into bed. 4
Caffeine and alcohol both reduce sleep quality and keep people from getting deep sleep. People who want to improve their sleep should avoid caffeine and alcohol in the evening. However, people who often drink large amounts of alcohol should talk to their doctors before quitting or cutting down on alcohol, as alcohol quitting can be dangerous.Keep a Comfortable Bedroom
5 Loud noises and bright lights in or near the sleeping environment may also make it difficult to get deep sleep. To get the best possible sleep, sleepers should keep their bedroom dark, quiet, and cool with a comfortable bed and pillows (枕头). Ear plugs (耳塞), sound machines, and blackout curtains may help people who live in noisy or bright locations.
A.Turn to Doctor When Necessary.
B.Avoid or Limit Caffeine and Alcohol.
C.Researchers found that anxious people have difficulty sleeping.
D.Instead, a consistent sleep schedule helps people fall asleep faster.
E.People in pain or discomfort often have difficulty getting deep sleep.
F.Taking a bath, reading, or listening to quiet music before bedtime also help a lot.
G.Therefore, habits that help people sleep faster may help them get more deep sleep.
【答案】1.G 2.D 3.F 4.B 5.E
【导语】这是一篇说明文,文章介绍了如何得到更多深度睡眠。
1.根据上文“Most deep sleep happens in the first hour or two of sleep. (大多数深度睡眠发生在睡眠的前一两个小时。)”可知,大多数深度睡眠发生在睡眠的前一两个小时,推知快速入睡能得到更多深度睡眠,G项“因此,有助于人们更快入睡的习惯可能有助于他们获得更多的深度睡眠。”符合语境,故选G。

5.根据下文“Loud noises and bright lights in or near the sleeping environment may also make it difficult to get deep sleep. (在噪音和强光的睡眠环境或在其附近也可能使人难以进入深度睡眠)”中的“also”可知,空处也是描述使人难以进入深度睡眠的情况,E项“疼痛或不适的人通常难以进入深度睡眠。”符合语境,故选E。
Passage 3
(23-24学年高一上·泰安一中·期中)
A healthy person is a wealthy person. Wealth is here valued in terms of the person's physical well-being so that he or she is able to go about and carry out day-to-day tasks easily. 1 To achieve this, physical exercise is a must.
2 Modern-day diseases like heart problems, diabetes (糖尿病),and certain cancers are all caused by the shortage of exercise. Oppositely, anyone having these diseases will get well if they include exercise as part of their daily life.
Doctors think not enough exercise leads to many people having one form or another of sleeplessness. Moreover, when we sleep better, we can protect ourselves from diseases. 3 During tasks, their bodies physically become worse. Their bones, internal parts, and cardiovascular system are all badly influenced. However, it has been found that exercise reduces changes noticeably.
Another example of how exercise helps us to feel better is that it makes us lose weight. It burns off the energy. In our push-button lifestyle, we have become quite sedentary (久坐不动). “Why walk, when we can take the car” seems to be the way of life for all of us. 4 Moreover, we seem to be only exercising our fingers as we play computer games, surf the Net, and press the keys to choose our favorite television program.
Lastly, students should exercise at least three times a week for at least twenty minutes each time, as exercise is a good stress killer. 5 One of them can make a person become less stressed and more cheerful. Students preparing for their examinations are therefore able to concentrate better. As a result, they will do better in their examinations.
In a word, regular exercise is a useful way by which we can not only feel younger, but look younger.
A.Exercise ensures good health.
B.This has been made clear by spacemen.
C.He or she will look good and feel good.
D.Students are busy with heavy homework.
E.Nowadays, even shopping is done online.
F.It is no wonder that our young are gaining weight.
G.Exercise causes the brain to produce different chemicals.
【答案】1.C 2.A 3.B 4.F 5.G

3.根据下文“During tasks, their bodies physically become worse. Their bones, internal parts, and cardiovascular system are all badly influenced. However, it has been found that exercise reduces changes noticeably.(在任务中,他们的身体会变得更差。它们的骨骼、内部和心血管系统都受到严重影响。然而,研究发现,运动可以显著减少变化。)”可知此处上下文说的是特殊工作的人因缺乏锻炼会导致身体变差,分析选项,B项“This has been made clear by spacemen.(这一点已经被宇航员们证明了。)”表达的含义符合语境,故选B项。
4.根据上文“In our push-button lifestyle, we have become quite sedentary (久坐不动). “Why walk, when we can take the car” seems to be the way of life for all of us(在我们按键式的生活方式中,我们变得久坐不动。“既然可以开车,为什么走路”似乎是我们所有人的生活方式。)”可知此处上下文说的是在我们按键式的生活方式中,我们变得久坐不动是肥胖的原因之一,与F项“It is no wonder that our young are gaining weight.(难怪我们的年轻人体重在增加)”表达的含义一致,故选F项。

Passage 1
(20-21学年高一上·山东省实验·期中)
The biggest seasonal change of the year happens from March to June, as temperatures climb, days lengthen, birds return, and life in all forms comes rushing back. 1
Beneath this outpouring of new life, however, is a great struggle, 2 Like a bean seed growing from the earth, the spirit of spring is like a pressure valve(阀门) releasing, preparing us for action. That's the energy of the season: powerful, creative, determined. That makes it the perfect time to get serious about your health and fitness.
Write down your workout goal --- building new strength; perhaps. 3 "What have you been telling yourself you can't do?" asks Larsen. Spring is the time to question those assumptions and deal with them head-on.
4 It's challenging for many, and it promotes growth and change: Hiring a trainer -- -- or joining forces with an enthusiastic partner or group --- can help build confidence, whether you're an experienced lifter or nẹw to the world of weights.
You can make use of the seasons' growth- inducing (促生长的) power by increasing your fitness program. 5 If you are a yogi, make great effort to master tougher and more athletic asanas(体式).
Whatever you choose, remember that by taking advantage of the opportunities of each season, and avoiding the difficulties, you can gain a deeper appreciation for your body's changing needs---one year, one season, one workout at a time.
A.New growth requires willpower.
B.If you are a cyclist, attempt longer climbs.
C.Then break it down into steps and start working.
D.Strength training is perhaps the ideal spring activity.
E.You need to prepare your body for your fitness program.
F.The year's cycle renews itself in this season of rebirth.
G.When you are ready to play your first game of the season, take it easy.
【答案】1.F 2.A 3.C 4.D 5.B
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。本文主要说明了春天健身和锻炼的重要性以及如何计划自己的健身目标,最后告诫我们要把握一年中的每一个季节,积极的去锻炼。
1.前文“as temperatures climb, days lengthen, birds return, and life in all forms comes rushing back. (随着气温上升,白天变长,鸟类回归,各种形式的生命又回来了。) ”讲到万物重生,F项“在这个重生的季节,一年的周期会自我更新。”中的rebirth与该句中的all forms comes rushing back语义一致,自然衔接,符合题意。故选F项。
2.前文“Beneath this outpouring of new life, however, is a great struggle,(然而,在这种新生命的涌现之下,是一场巨大的斗争,)”中的great struggle可知,生长不易,A项“新的增长需要意志力。”中的willpower与great struggle叙述一致,语义相关,符合题意。故选A项。
3.前文“Write down your workout goal--building new strength, perhaps.”(写下你的锻炼目标——也许是建立新的力量。)可知,作者建议写下锻炼目标,C项“然后把它分解成几个步骤,开始工作。”是对写下目标后的进一步操作,C项中的it指代前面的goal(目标)。前后叙述一致,逻辑合理,C项符合题意。故选C项。
4.根据下句“It's challenging for many, and it promotes growth and change. (对许多人来说,这是一个挑战,它促进了增长和变化) ”可推知,空格处提到了一个名词,后文用it指代。D项“力量训练也许是理想的春季活动。”中的Strength training(力量训练)即是一个名词短语,用后文中的it指代,意思是力量训练对许多人来说是一个挑战且促进了增长和变化。前后叙述一致,逻辑合理,D项符合题意。故选D项。
5.后文“If you are a yogi, make a great effort to master tougher and more athletic asanas.(如果你是一个瑜伽修行者,努力掌握更强硬和更运动的体式)”举了“瑜伽修行者”的例子,可猜测划线处是另外一个例子,B项“如果你是一个自行车手,尝试更长的攀登。”就举了“自行车手”的例子,两者对应上句中的“fitness program”(健身项目),逻辑合理,符合题意。故选B项。

Passage 1
(24-25学年高一上·山东济宁兖州·期中)
Chinese people may not be that familiar with sports tourism, but it is one of the fastest growing parts of tourism, because an increasing number of people are expressing their curiosity in sports events during their trips even if sports are not the key reason for their travel. 1
Sports tourism refers to tourism including joining in or watching sports events and staying in an environment different from the usual tourist hotels or resorts. 2 At that time, people traveled to Olympia to watch or join in Olympic races. Modern sports tourism, on the other hand, surfaced in the 1990s.
3 There is also a lack (缺乏) of research to study its true potential. However, given that Chinese authorities attach great importance to people’s health, sports tourism, in many ways, can meet people’s needs for both relaxing and physical activity.
Also, sports tourism will improve the consumption (消费) upgrading at last, which will in turn lead to deeper hand-in-hand relationship between the tourism and culture. 4 It can not only meet tourists’ needs for outdoor activities, but also deepen their understanding of the heroic deeds of the people who sacrificed (牺牲) their lives for the nation.
Sports tourism is a flowering industry today, with a yearly growth speed of about 15 percent globally. 5 The rapid growth of sports tourism will help meet people’s relaxation needs and improve the high-quality development in China.
A.People are paying more attention to safety in travel.
B.However, sports tourism has drawn people’s attention in China.
C.The origin of sports tourism can be traced back to Ancient Greece.
D.Since it just appeared not long ago, it hasn’t drawn enough attention in China.
E.Marathons, hiking, cycling and camping fall in the area of sports tourism.
F.For example, hiking in “red tourism areas” has already become a part of sports tourism.
G.In China, however, the growth speed is 30-40 percent despite a slow beginning at first.

Caffeine and alcohol both reduce sleep quality and keep people from getting deep sleep. People who want to improve their sleep should avoid caffeine and alcohol in the evening. However, people who often drink large amounts of alcohol should talk to their doctors before quitting or cutting down on alcohol, as alcohol quitting can be dangerous.Keep a Comfortable Bedroom
5 Loud noises and bright lights in or near the sleeping environment may also make it difficult to get deep sleep. To get the best possible sleep, sleepers should keep their bedroom dark, quiet, and cool with a comfortable bed and pillows (枕头). Ear plugs (耳塞), sound machines, and blackout curtains may help people who live in noisy or bright locations.
A.Turn to Doctor When Necessary.
B.Avoid or Limit Caffeine and Alcohol.
C.Researchers found that anxious people have difficulty sleeping.
D.Instead, a consistent sleep schedule helps people fall asleep faster.

Maybe you've never thought about it before, but every great summer camp has the same main goals — opportunity, challenge and growth.
Opportunity means you are given a chance to do something special. 2 For example, if you are interested in writing, then you can choose to join a journalism camp. You may even have the opportunity to meet famous journalists there.
3 You must finish the task and succeed in overcoming the challenge. Then you will have a sense of accomplishment. For example, you could take a lifeguard course at some summer camps. If you pass the exam, then you will receive a certificate (证书)to become a real lifeguard.
This also leads to the third and most important goal of every great summer camp personal growth. It doesn’t mean growing taller and stronger or more beautiful. It means seeing yourself improve, learning something new and doing something you didn’t know you could do before. 4 .
So in the future, when choosing your next summer camp, remember to ask yourself: Is it a special opportunity? Is it a challenge? Will I grow?
5 These will all happen naturally when you have the right goals at summer camp.

Passage 1
(24-25学年高一上·山东青岛·期中)
A large number of people start experiencing strong loneliness in the few month following their graduation. Many people mistakenly think that loneliness can be ended by having more friends or by meeting new people. 1 So what causes loneliness and why do so many people experience it right after graduation?
2 Some of the main characteristics of a close relationship are common interests, openness and common life challenges. During college or high school years, most of the people in a group will have the same problem, so they can talk about their common problems, think together of solutions and even help each other go through them. 3
However, after graduation each person usually takes a different path and finds himself fighting his own unique battle. Problems become no longer common between the same group of people because each of them develops his own special ones. Friends can become less connected to each other when each one of them lives a different life. 4
In such a case two things can be done. You can either share your new problems with your old friends and make sure you listen to theirs or you can make more friends at your new job to share with them what’s going on in your new stage of life. 5 When you do so, stick to them, share your problems with them and you will never feel lonely.
A.What happens to the same group after graduation?
B.Loneliness can never appear in such an environment.
C.This gradually reduces closeness and promotes loneliness.
D.In fact, a person with quite a few friends can still feel lonely.
E.Loneliness happens when you don’t have close relationships.
F.The key is to find people who are fighting the same battle as you.
G.How long it lasts relies on what actions you will take during that period.
Passage 2
(24-25学年高一上·山东潍坊·期中)
I have a terrible sense of direction, so without the guide of GPS — the Global Positioning System — not only would I be lost, but also I’d feel lost. 1 . If you want to get confidence on the road or be less dependent on GPS to get around, here are some steps you can take to improve your sense of direction.
Turn off your GPS and get lost on purpose. Next time you go for a walk, go down a road you’ve not walked and see where it ends up or take the beautiful road to your favorite restaurant or coffee shop. 2 . The goal is to get comfortable with getting lost and moving through the world without a map.
Use landmarks to guide yourself. Not sure if you’re north, south, east or west from home? 3 . The perfect landmark is large and far away, like a big sign, a highway, or a bridge which can serve as a better mark of direction.
Use memory tricks (技巧) to remember where you are. People with a good sense of direction know their streets. If you have no sense of direction, you can try some expert methods. Keep street names and roads in mind by using stories and tricks to lock things in. 4 .
These methods may not turn you into an expert guide able to find your way out of being lost. 5 . And you can use them to gain a better sense of ownership over your environment.
A.Driving with GPS brings trouble sometimes.
B.Pick landmarks in town to help guide yourself.
C.But they can reduce any anxiety about getting lost.
D.It gives you an idea of how the streets are connected.
E.Then see if you can make it back home without a GPS.
F.This is especially helpful when street names are hard to know.
G.However, dependence on GPS can lead to a narrower view of your environment.

Passage 1
(24-25学年高一上·山东枣庄·期中)
Friends play a very important part in everyone’s life. Friendship usually develops during childhood. New friends are made when you progress through school. 1 Friends influence your development, maturity (成熟) and the sense of responsibility.
A familiar opinion is “You can tell a lot about a person by knowing who his friends are.” 2 If you like sports, most of your friends are likely to be active. If you enjoy reading and shopping, most of your friends do the same.
3 These people are not really friends. They are only “friends” on the outside, not the inside where it counts. Superficial (表面的) friends only want to be your friends if it is to their advantage. True friends are there whether you are rich or poor. 4 By this time you should be able to recognize your friends as the “real” or the “false”.
5 Sometimes they might not be easy to find, so you can consider yourself very lucky if you have one true friend. This friend is eager to help you whenever necessary. He or she knows you would do the same for them. A true friend is someone you can talk to about any subject or problem. You and your true friend have good understanding of each other. True friends support you, take your side, and build up your confidence.
A.True friends are most special.
B.You are lucky to find your friends in school.
C.Friendship is really based on common interests.
D.True friendship is not based on material things.
E.It is easy to have many so-called “friends” if you are rich.
F.Some people call you their friends for the wrong reasons.
G.Those friends that you make as a student can usually last long.

Reviving (恢复) a friendship is totally possible. Your friendship might come back much stronger. So don’t give up on your friend. Here’re some ways for you to reconnect.
Send your friend a message or text to break the ice. 1 Ask your friend a question or send a funny meme (表情包). If it’s been a while, tell your friend you miss him and want to get your friendship back.
2 Clear the air when you start talking again so you can start your friendship fresh. Talk to your friend about what went wrong. Then, tell your friend you know you did something wrong and explain that you’re sorry. Promise to do your best not to hurt him again.
Make plans with your friend so you don’t lose touch again. Act now instead of saying you’ll make plans later. Make a list of activities you and your friend both like to do. Include activities you both used to do together and new things you can try together to make fresh memories. 3
Celebrate your friend’s important events and achievements. 4 Remember his birthday and wish him happy holidays. Additionally, check in with him to see how things are going so you can cheer him on toward his goals.
Focus on creating new memories together. 5 But don’t let that get you down. Instead, enjoy the friendship you have now. Do fun things with your friend, talk to him often, and try new activities. In time, your friendship can be much better.
A.Then start scheduling your hangouts.
B.Don’t wait for your friend to reach out.
C.Your friendship will soon come to an end.

Passage 3
(24-25学年高一上·山东聊城·期中)
A trust fall is a group exercise in which a person allows himself or herself to fall on purpose in order to be caught by someone or others in the group. The exercise is used by groups, organizations, and businesses to give the persons involved a sense of trust in one another. 1
In a typical trust fall exercise, group members form a circle around the person who is to fall. He or she should stand close enough to catch the person. Meanwhile, he or she must be far enough away from the falling person to allow for an almost complete fall.
3 The person who is to fall stands straight and then simply leans backward. He or she is not to try in any way to slow or prevent the fall. When injuries do occur, they are usually the result of panic on the part of the falling person, or the failure of the special person who can not safely catch the falling person.
Generally, the ending of a trust fall exercise is marked by a question and answer meeting. 4 They are also encouraged to talk about how it makes them feel.
A number of individuals are convinced that trust falls don’t effectively build trust. The exercise is in a controlled environment in which the participants are expected to act in a trustworthy manner. They are also in the presence of all their members. 5 However, group leaders point out that the exercise creates a shared sense of purpose among the participants, from which lasting trust grows as they continue to work together.
A.First, divide the group into pairs.
B.These seem to make the result less reliable.
C.In some senses, trust falls carry a certain risk.
D.Then a special person is asked to catch the falling person.
E.The person may fear to fall into the arms of other members.
F.It is also designed to build team spirit to help the group achieve its goals.
G.Group members are asked to comment on what the exercise means to them.

Passage 1
(24-25学年高一上·山东济宁邹城·期中)
Festivals and concerts attract huge crowds, and are popular with people. But once a crowd reaches six or seven people per square meter, some may be crushed (挤压) against each other so tightly that they cannot move. Experts refer to such an accident as a crowd crush. This can become very dangerous. 1
First of all, try not to panic (惊慌) and save your energy. 2 Stay calm and focused. If there is a crowd crush, you’ll need all the physical energy you can gather. Yelling and shouting will tire you out.
It’s best to go with the flow (流动) when the crowd is moving in one direction. 3 If the group crowds together tightly, you will run out of air with the heavy weight over chest and the airway to your lungs will be blocked. In other words, your breathing will be prevented because of all the outside pressure.
If you fall down in a large crowd, try to get up as quickly as possible. If you can’t, get into the right position. 4 In this way, you can protect yourself and avoid being hurt when lying on the ground.
Crowd crushes happen at different types of gatherings around the world. 5 With some preparations and the suggestions above, you can avoid being one of the people who don’t make it out.
A.Move to a safer place.
B.So how can you lower the risk of injuries?
C.But they can be completely avoided in advance.
D.You should run faster to catch up with other people.
E.If you don’t, the crowd behind you could crush you.
F.Panic will not help you free yourself from a crowd crush.
G.Cover your head with your arms and fold your legs in front of your body.

Robotic comedy
It seems you can ask artificial intelligence (AI) programs anything, and they’ll give you an answer back. So, can they tell jokes? This question was raised when UK comedian Karen Hobbs performed in late June. Instead of the usual jokes she created, Hobbs told jokes written by ChatGPT. 1 .
Hobbs said that when she asked ChatGPT for a joke, what it provided was a man joking about being impatient with his shopping-obsessed (痴迷于购物的) girlfriend. 2 , the joke was still about a shopping-obsessed girlfriend, just told from the first-person perspective (角度).
3 , as males dominate the field of comedy. The BBC commented that AI storytelling can only reproduce information that already exists in some form, although it can produce some never-before-seen combinations (结合) of ideas. “One way that AI can tell jokes is to do what any 5-year-old does — repeat a successful joke they’ve heard or try to make an obvious variation (变化) of it,” said Les Carr, a professor of web science.
Nonetheless, a good joke in real life can always adjust to the audience’s feedback, which often leads comedians to improvise (即兴创作). 4 . For instance, in improv, there is no space for premeditation (预先策划); the comedian must rely only on their instinctive (直觉的) reaction to the audience.
“A well-done stand-up bit can lead the audience through a funny story all the way to a hilarious punchline (令人捧腹的妙语),” Michael Ryan, a student researching AI’s impact on comedy, explained to the BBC. “The whole time the comedian knew exactly where he or she was going with the joke and brought the audience there.”
5 . Research is already ongoing with the goal of giving AI a greater understanding of the world around it, which makes the future of AI jokes still uncertain.
A.The process made her nervous
B.However, this could all change
C.It’s certain that AI can become genuinely funny
D.Even when she asked to switch to the woman’s perspective
E.This, unfortunately, is beyond the current capabilities of AI
F.She could thus finish the job more efficiently and creatively
G.It’s no surprise that many jokes come from a male perspective in online materials

Passage 1
(24-25学年高一上·山东菏泽·期中)
Rain is pouring hard and fast — more than eight inches in just an hour, turning river water brown with mud. Earthworms (蚯蚓) move up to the ground as the soil becomes too wet for them. 1
During a rainstorm, the water that comes from rain goes to different places. Some of it runs off into rivers, lakes, or city watercourses. Other water evaporates (蒸发) and returns to the atmosphere. 2 It runs through the top surface of the ground, to the part of plants that grows below the surface.
Floods can form slowly over several days or can flood an area with little warning. Slow-forming river flooding happens in floodplains (漫滩). When big storms hit, the water floods over the banks and spreads out across the plains. It brings nutrients (营养物) to the soil, which is good for growing crops. 3 However, too much water can destroy crops and damage homes.
Another type of flooding is called a flash flood, when a flood happens within six hours of a heavy rainfall — as much as eight inches an hour. With no place to go, the moving water will run quickly through highways, and wash away cars, roads, bridges, and houses. 4 On coastlines, hurricane rains cause water levels to rise, and the high winds push that water onto land. This also causes flash flooding.
5 If flooding has already started where you are, move to the highest place you can find. Bring as much food and water as possible. Never walk through flood water, especially if it’s moving. If you must walk through water to get away, walk where the water is still.
A.A flood might be coming.
B.How can you survive a flood?
C.What should you prepare for a flood?
D.But much of the rainwater is taken in by soil.
E.That’s why many people live in or near floodplains.
F.The soil would become too wet to take in more water.
G.Quickly melting ice and snow can also cause flash flooding.

A healthy person is a wealthy person. Wealth is here valued in terms of the person's physical well-being so that he or she is able to go about and carry out day-to-day tasks easily. 1 To achieve this, physical exercise is a must.
2 Modern-day diseases like heart problems, diabetes (糖尿病),and certain cancers are all caused by the shortage of exercise. Oppositely, anyone having these diseases will get well if they include exercise as part of their daily life.
Doctors think not enough exercise leads to many people having one form or another of sleeplessness. Moreover, when we sleep better, we can protect ourselves from diseases. 3 During tasks, their bodies physically become worse. Their bones, internal parts, and cardiovascular system are all badly influenced. However, it has been found that exercise reduces changes noticeably.
Another example of how exercise helps us to feel better is that it makes us lose weight. It burns off the energy. In our push-button lifestyle, we have become quite sedentary (久坐不动). “Why walk, when we can take the car” seems to be the way of life for all of us. 4 Moreover, we seem to be only exercising our fingers as we play computer games, surf the Net, and press the keys to choose our favorite television program.
Lastly, students should exercise at least three times a week for at least twenty minutes each time, as exercise is a good stress killer. 5 One of them can make a person become less stressed and more cheerful. Students preparing for their examinations are therefore able to concentrate better. As a result, they will do better in their examinations.
In a word, regular exercise is a useful way by which we can not only feel younger, but look younger.
A.Exercise ensures good health.
B.This has been made clear by spacemen.
C.He or she will look good and feel good.
D.Students are busy with heavy homework.
E.Nowadays, even shopping is done online.
F.It is no wonder that our young are gaining weight.
G.Exercise causes the brain to produce different chemicals.

Passage 1
(20-21学年高一上·山东省实验·期中)
The biggest seasonal change of the year happens from March to June, as temperatures climb, days lengthen, birds return, and life in all forms comes rushing back. 1
Beneath this outpouring of new life, however, is a great struggle, 2 Like a bean seed growing from the earth, the spirit of spring is like a pressure valve(阀门) releasing, preparing us for action. That's the energy of the season: powerful, creative, determined. That makes it the perfect time to get serious about your health and fitness.
Write down your workout goal --- building new strength; perhaps. 3 "What have you been telling yourself you can't do?" asks Larsen. Spring is the time to question those assumptions and deal with them head-on.
4 It's challenging for many, and it promotes growth and change: Hiring a trainer -- -- or joining forces with an enthusiastic partner or group --- can help build confidence, whether you're an experienced lifter or nẹw to the world of weights.
You can make use of the seasons' growth- inducing (促生长的) power by increasing your fitness program. 5 If you are a yogi, make great effort to master tougher and more athletic asanas(体式).
Whatever you choose, remember that by taking advantage of the opportunities of each season, and avoiding the difficulties, you can gain a deeper appreciation for your body's changing needs---one year, one season, one workout at a time.
A.New growth requires willpower.
B.If you are a cyclist, attempt longer climbs.
C.Then break it down into steps and start working.
D.Strength training is perhaps the ideal spring activity.
E.You need to prepare your body for your fitness program.
F.The year's cycle renews itself in this season of rebirth.
G.When you are ready to play your first game of the season, take it easy.
