How to Become a Lifelong Learner
There are no age limits when it comes to education. Being a lifelong learner is all about maintaining your curiosity and love for learning.
Identify your learning style.
Everyone has a preferred way they like to approach information. Determine your own preferred learning style. Choose what learning techniques are most efficient for you and use them as much as possible. Most people learn through multiple methods but favor one or two. 6
Promote a positive attitude towards learning.
Don’t just force yourself to learn things because they’re important or necessary. Instead, learn things that you need to learn alongside things you love to learn. 7 Do you remember the 8th grade history that you hated so much, with all those names and dates that seemed to mean nothing? It was a chore then, but it makes sense, now.
Get some perspective.
Broaden your horizons and respect the journey. Take a look at the theory of multiple intelligence if you don’t know it yet. 8 A lot of people have a fixed attitude. This means they think intelligence can’t be grown. They think mistakes reflect badly on their intelligence, so they avoid taking risks.
Create something.
Getting to know your creative muscles can help you learn about yourself. 9 In fact, some of the most powerful learning happens when you are creating or formulating something for yourself. Creation, like intelligence, can be artistic or scientific; physical or intellectual; social or lonely.
Use what you learn.
10 This is the best way to test it and it will help you learn it more completely. It will also help you discover weaknesses and strengths in your learning, which is how we progress the sum of human knowledge.

Passage 3
(24-25高二上·吉林吉林·期中)
We all know that most communication is nonverbal, but did you know that the same body language can mean something totally different based on culture? 11 .
Eye contact
Long eye contact is a sign of confidence and attentiveness (用心) in most Western countries. However, in many African, Asian and Latin American countries, unbroken eye contact can be seen as aggressive. In the Middle East, eye contact is only between people of the same sex. 12 .
13
“Rules” on physical contact are very complex and usually differ. But in general, people from high contact cultures such as Southern Europe tend to stand close when speaking. 14 . Those from medium contact cultures stand quite close when speaking and will occasionally make physical touch, while those from low contact cultures stand farther apart and generally avoid physical touch.
Hand gestures
15 .
Using the “OK” sign is not OK in Brazil, Greece, Spain or Turkey. And if you want to tell someone they did a good job in Greece or the Middle East, do not use the thumbs-up sign. And in most of Asia, curling (弯曲) your index finger to signal someone over is fine for dogs, but not for people — especially in the Philippines, where you could be punished under the law.
A.They also tend to touch often
B.Physical contact and distance
C.Complex and different cultures
D.Let’s take a look at some examples

Passage 1
(24-25高二上·吉林四平·期中)
First impressions are important, but everyone has an off day or makes mistakes in social situations. It might be more of a challenge to change how you are perceived. 1
Apologize. If your first meeting was affected by some type of mistake, reach out and apologize. It shows that you are aware of your mistake and willing to take steps to overcome it. 2
Explain what happened. You don’t want to make excuses. But it can be helpful to provide an honest explanation for why your first meeting went poorly. You might explain that you were nervous, that you weren’t feeling well, that you were distracted, or that you were feeling stressed about something unrelated. 3 It makes the other person better empathize (有同感) with your situation.
Suggest another meeting. If you won’t see them in another setting, ask if you can have another opportunity to let them get to see the real you. 4 For example, don’t continue pursuing a potential romantic partner after they have told you they are not interested. Don’t take it personally. Instead, see it as a learning opportunity and try to apply those lessons when you meet someone new.
5 If you do get another opportunity to overcome a poor first impression, make sure you are honest and consistent in your future interactions. Let the other person know you completely in terms of context and situation. If it’s a second date, let them see the qualities that make you a great romantic partner, such as warmth, kindness, humour, and attentiveness (周到).
A.Let them see the real you.
B.Show interest in others.
C.Smiling, for example, can help express warmth and interest.
D.No matter the cause, an honest explanation may be helpful.
E.But there are still things you can do to overcome a bad first impression.
F.Then you can improve the impression the other person has of you.
G.However, be willing to respect the other person’s request if they decline your offer.
Passage 2
(24-25高二上·内蒙古鄂尔多斯·期中)
Gift-giving has been a timeless tradition of human culture. Across centuries, the act of presenting gifts carries great significance, not only in its material exchange but in the connections it establishes. 6
Central to this joy is the sense of connection it forms. Selecting a gift involves a thoughtful investment of time and consideration into understanding the receiver’s needs. 7 Thus, giving becomes a tangible (可感知的) expression of care and affection, which goes beyond the mere material value of the gift.
Moreover, gift-giving develops empathy (同理心). 8 This selfless act of putting someone else’s happiness before our own allows us to experience a sense of fulfillment that arises from making a positive impact on someone’s life.
9 The act of receiving a gift may bring immediate happiness, but over time, that joy may fade. In contrast, the act of giving gifts leaves a lasting impression on both the giver and the receiver. The emotional connection formed during the process and the shared experience of exchanging gifts become precious memories that can be revisited in the years to come.
While receiving gifts undoubtedly brings happiness, the act of giving gifts offers a unique sense of joy that surpasses (超过) the temporary excitement of unwrapping presents. The power of connection, empathy, and the creation of lasting memories are some of the reasons why giving gifts makes us happier than receiving them. 10
A.Gift-giving has the power to create lasting memories.
B.Thus, for our own sake, let’s practice the art of gift-giving.
C.It enables us to truly understand the emotions of our family.
D.It redirects our focus from self-centeredness to the happiness of others.
E.While it is delightful to receive gifts, giving itself often brings about greater joy.
F.So, let’s welcome the joy of giving, celebrating its power to enrich relationships.
G.This process improves emotional connections, deepening each other’s appreciation.
Passage 3
(24-25高二上·吉林长春·期中)
A main goal of culturally responsive education is to help all students learn to respect various cultures and people with whom they’ll interact (互动). 11 Because the world is much more complex (复杂的) and diverse than the environment in which the students live. How might educators help students become more respectful of cultures with different ideas?
There are a wide range of classroom activities that can help students recognize the essential humanity (人性) and value of different types of people. For example, show students some everyday photographs of different people. 12 students to the same role models repeatedly. It is important to avoid exposing students to the same role models repeatedly.
In addition to classroom activities and lessons toward multicultural appreciation, it is critical that educators provide students with a culturally responsive learning environment. 13 students can mark the places which they come from on a map on the wall, and classroom signs can be hung in several languages. Such touches will help create an environment in which students from different backgrounds feel more comfortable being themselves.
14 By understanding and valuing their own culture, students can develop a sense of identity and belonging. This appreciation also enables them to contribute to the preservation and promotion of their culture.
Providing opportunities for students to investigate unique characters of their family community it is one effective way to help students gain a greater appreciation for their own culture. 15 They then write about important learning experiences that are gained in their community.
A.But it can be a difficult task for educators.
B.Wall space can be used to display posters about cultural groups.
C.Learn to look at situations with fresh eyes, starting with their own culture.
D.This can give students some opportunities to interact with famous speakers.
E.Students can interview family members about cultural practices and traditions.

Passage 1
(24-25高二上·辽宁鞍山·期中)
Family isn’t always blood. They’re the people in your life who appreciate having you—the ones who encourage you to make progress in healthy ways. 1
Free yourself from negative people.
Relationships should help you, not hurt you. Choose friends who you are proud to know, who you admire, who love and respect you. 2 When you free yourself from negative people, you free yourself to be YOU—and being YOU is the only way to truly live.
Give people you don’t know a chance.
3 If you give them a chance, everyone has something amazing to offer. So appreciate the possibility of making new relationships. Trust your judgment. Be ready to learn, be ready for a challenge, and be ready to meet someone that might just change your life forever.
4
Treat everyone with kindness and respect. Any good relationship is based on sincerity and respect. Treat everyone with the same level of respect you would give to your grandfather and the same level of patience you would have with your baby brother. People will notice your kindness.
Forgive people and move forward.
Don’t live your life with hate in your heart. You will end up hurting yourself more than the people you hate. 5 It means you’re letting go of the pain, and instead choosing to learn from the incident and move on with your life.

Passage 2
(24-25高二上·辽宁大连·期中)
Fall is here, whether you like it or not. Soon the weather will get colder. 6 Another year is dying; that’s just how it goes. Studies suggest that if you are deeply preoccupied with your thoughts in the autumn, you may be at more risk for depression in the winter. No wonder fall has various celebrations intended to keep our spirits up.
Psychologists say that the feelings that often crop up in autumn come from our discomfort with change, and an anxiety and uncertainty about what that change will bring. 7 Among those things, the anxiety, the promise and even the careful thoughts function differently. They make it the ideal season to build resilience and practice mindfulness.
But intolerance of uncertainty is a part of being human; everyone has it on some level. And it is changeable. 8 It’s an approach worth trying to cultivate uncertainty rather than escaping from it.
Another strategy experts suggest for relieving anxiety is to step back and simply observe the world around you. Quietly sit on a park bench and watch a tree drop its leaves, for instance. 9
Autumn will probably hold some whisper of decay and death. 10 If you are always trying to avoid difficult feelings, you might end up also cutting yourself off from love, richness and sweetness. Dr. Wilson said, “this is how life is: sweet and sad, poured from the same vessel in equal measure.”
A.In fact, it is not that bad.
B.But embracing that sadness is important.
C.One way to build tolerance is to lean into it.
D.The leaves will die and the nights will stretch longer.
E.After all, it’s a time to appreciate what nature offers you.
F.Also, fall brings with bright days, sweet fruits and cozy sweaters.
G.In such moments, you may as well stop thinking or analyzing current troubles.
Passage 3
(24-25高二上·吉林·期中)
Tidying your desk, watering your plants or folding laundry — these household chores are hardly the height of hedonism (享乐主义). 11 . Psychologists suggest there are many potential mechanisms that might explain the perfect pleasure of puttering (慢条斯理地做) . They may well encourage you to engage in it more often.
Pleasant distractions
On the surface level, puttering may be useful because it occupies the mind, so that we give fewer resources to the things that are worrying us. For instance, we may find household tasks can help us focus on the present moment. People completing these small tasks often report a significantly better mood. 12 , as if the immersion (沉浸) in the simple activity had refreshed their minds.
13
Unlike other distracting activities — such as playing computer games or watching trashy TV — puttering also has the advantage of being positive and useful, increasing our “perceived control”. When we feel anxious, a sense of helplessness can heighten the physiological stress response, increasing levels of hormones. Ideally, we would deal directly with the upsetting situation itself. But research suggests we can gain a perception of control from activities that may have little effect on the situation that’s bothering us.
Tidy room, focused mind
14 . If your puttering takes the form of organizing and decluttering (清理), you may find that the tidier environment is itself a form of comfort. To summarize, if we see order outside, it helps us to feel a bit less chaotic inside. 15 .
A.Being powerful
B.A feeling of control
C.The benefits do not end there
D.We will feel great anxiety in our mind
E.This included reduced nervousness and even a sense of “inspiration”
F.It is comforting because it makes life easier to manage and more predictable
G.Yet we often find ourselves seeking pleasure and comfort in small repetitive tasks

Passage 2
(24-25高二上·黑龙江虎林·期中)
Whether you’re an experienced dog handler or a little careful about dogs, it can be difficult to read a dog’s complex language. How do you know if the dog wants to greet you or tell you to back off? 6
A content and relaxed dog will have its ears up (not forward) and head high. 7 Your relaxed dog’s mouth opens slightly with tongue exposed. If you are still unsure of whether to approach, go slowly and make no sudden moves. Don’t make too much eye contact and slowly extend the back of your hand for the dog to sniff (嗅) first before patting.
After this welcome interaction, dogs may raise their tails and lower front paws (爪子). 8 This position will be held briefly before they rush off in random directions to get you to chase and to play with them. They stick out their tongues. Their ears will be up. This is your chance to have a run with your partner.
9 They show more teeth, bark more loudly and hide the tails between their legs. They are ready to attack when annoyed. Be careful of these unusual gestures. These signals are expressed as they directly face their source of “threat”.
A dog that is under social or environmental stress will pace about with the tail down, the body lowered and ears back. Its breath will also be rapid with eyes expanded. 10 In this case, try to work out the source of its stress. If you can’t change that right away, a calming massage (按摩) will help.
A.Although a happy dog will have its tail high, a relaxed dog’s tail will be hanging.
B.The following is a handy dog body language guide.
C.And it may leave sweat marks from its feet.
D.The moods can be judged from their tails.
E.This means it is playtime!
F.Keep your voice low and calm.
G.Sometimes dogs behave in an angry and violent way.
Passage 3
(24-25高二上·黑龙江伊春·期中)
How to stay safe in crowded places
Before you head out to a fun event where there will be many people, you should be aware of the dangers of a crowd crush.
Though the risk of a crowd crush is rare, it can be deadly when it happens. A crowd crush occurs when many people are packed (挤) together and begin to fall over one another. 11 To avoid such a fate (命运), it’s best to escape the crush before it happens.
Before attending a crowded event, look at a map of the site. This will give you an idea of the surroundings — pay special attention to any exits. Once you arrive, choosing the right spot can be extremely important. Avoid the middle or front; instead, pick the back of a crowd. It’s also important to trust your feelings. 12 The more crowded the event becomes, the sooner you may need to return to a safe place.
If you do end up in a crowd crush, here’s how you can stay safe. The most important thing you can do is stay on your feet. To do this, spread your feet apart and bend (弯曲) your knees a little. 13 Trying to move against a large group of people will only end in disaster.
14 Once one person falls down, more people tend to fall over them. So if your neighbor in the crowd falls to the ground, help them up.
A common cause of death in a crowd crush isn’t being crushed but rather a lack of air. It’s best to hold out your arms in front of your chest (胸部). 15 It also protects your chest and lungs from being crushed on the ground should you fall.
A.There is usually fun where the crowds are.
B.Stay aware to see if you feel packed in at any point.
C.Also make sure to move with the flow of the crowd.
D.Helping others is another great way to keep everyone safe.
E.Some people lose awareness while they’re still standing up.
F.This makes space between you and the person in front of you.
G.In the past, such instances have caused horrible injury and even death.

Passage 1
(24-25高二上·吉林四平·期中)
First impressions are important, but everyone has an off day or makes mistakes in social situations. It might be more of a challenge to change how you are perceived. 1
Apologize. If your first meeting was affected by some type of mistake, reach out and apologize. It shows that you are aware of your mistake and willing to take steps to overcome it. 2
Explain what happened. You don’t want to make excuses. But it can be helpful to provide an honest explanation for why your first meeting went poorly. You might explain that you were nervous, that you weren’t feeling well, that you were distracted, or that you were feeling stressed about something unrelated. 3 It makes the other person better empathize (有同感) with your situation.
Suggest another meeting. If you won’t see them in another setting, ask if you can have another opportunity to let them get to see the real you. 4 For example, don’t continue pursuing a potential romantic partner after they have told you they are not interested. Don’t take it personally. Instead, see it as a learning opportunity and try to apply those lessons when you meet someone new.
5 If you do get another opportunity to overcome a poor first impression, make sure you are honest and consistent in your future interactions. Let the other person know you completely in terms of context and situation. If it’s a second date, let them see the qualities that make you a great romantic partner, such as warmth, kindness, humour, and attentiveness (周到).
A.Let them see the real you.
B.Show interest in others.
C.Smiling, for example, can help express warmth and interest.

G.However, be willing to respect the other person’s request if they decline your offer.
【答案】1.E 2.F 3.D 4.G 5.A
【导语】本文是说明文。文章主要说明了如何克服不好的第一印象,给出了具体的建议和方法。
1.空处位于首段段尾,承接上文,引出本文主题,根据前文“First impressions are important, but everyone has an off day or makes mistakes in social situations. It might be more of a challenge to change how you are perceived.(第一印象很重要,但每个人都有不顺心的时候,或者在社交场合犯错的时候。改变别人对你的看法可能更有挑战性)”可知,E项“But there are still things you can do to overcome a bad first impression.(但是你仍然可以做一些事情来克服糟糕的第一印象)”和上文构成转折关系,并引出本文主题,克服糟糕的第一印象。故选E项。
2.设空位于段尾,是对前文的总结,根据前文“Apologize. If your first meeting was affected by some type of mistake, reach out and apologize.

3.根据前文“Explain what happened. You don’t want to make excuses. But it can be helpful to provide an honest explanation for why your first meeting went poorly. You might explain that you were nervous, that you weren’t feeling well, that you were distracted, or that you were feeling stressed about something unrelated.(解释发生了什么。你不想找借口。但如果你能诚实地解释为什么你的第一次会面不顺利,那就很有帮助了。你可能会解释说你很紧张,你感觉不舒服,你心烦意乱,或者你对一些不相关的事情感到压力)”可知,本段主题是解释发生了什么,所以D项“No matter the cause, an honest explanation may be helpful.(不管是什么原因,一个诚实的解释可能会有所帮助)”符合本段主题,其中explanation为同词复现。故选D项。

Don’t take it personally.(例如,在一个潜在的浪漫伴侣告诉你他们对你不感兴趣之后,不要继续追求他们。不要往心里去)”可知,前文提到请求另一次机会,但是后文举例说如果被拒绝,就不要继续,所以空处应提到这点,所以G项“However, be willing to respect the other person’s request if they decline your offer.(然而,如果对方拒绝你的提议,你要尊重对方的要求)”承接上文,引出下文举例,符合文意。故选G项。
5.空处位于段首,为本段中心句,根据后文“If you do get another opportunity to overcome a poor first impression, make sure you are honest and consistent in your future interactions.

Passage 2
(24-25高二上·内蒙古鄂尔多斯·期中)
Gift-giving has been a timeless tradition of human culture. Across centuries, the act of presenting gifts carries great significance, not only in its material exchange but in the connections it establishes. 6
Central to this joy is the sense of connection it forms. Selecting a gift involves a thoughtful investment of time and consideration into understanding the receiver’s needs. 7 Thus, giving becomes a tangible (可感知的) expression of care and affection, which goes beyond the mere material value of the gift.
Moreover, gift-giving develops empathy (同理心). 8 This selfless act of putting someone else’s happiness before our own allows us to experience a sense of fulfillment that arises from making a positive impact on someone’s life.
9 The act of receiving a gift may bring immediate happiness, but over time, that joy may fade. In contrast, the act of giving gifts leaves a lasting impression on both the giver and the receiver. The emotional connection formed during the process and the shared experience of exchanging gifts become precious memories that can be revisited in the years to come.
While receiving gifts undoubtedly brings happiness, the act of giving gifts offers a unique sense of joy that surpasses (超过) the temporary excitement of unwrapping presents. The power of connection, empathy, and the creation of lasting memories are some of the reasons why giving gifts makes us happier than receiving them. 10
A.Gift-giving has the power to create lasting memories.
B.Thus, for our own sake, let’s practice the art of gift-giving.
C.It enables us to truly understand the emotions of our family.
D.It redirects our focus from self-centeredness to the happiness of others.
E.While it is delightful to receive gifts, giving itself often brings about greater joy.
F.So, let’s welcome the joy of giving, celebrating its power to enrich relationships.
G.This process improves emotional connections, deepening each other’s appreciation.
【答案】6.E 7.G 8.D 9.A 10.F
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍的是赠送礼物这一行为的重要意义。
6.根据空前的“Across centuries, the act of presenting gifts carries great significance, not only in its material exchange but in the connections it establishes.(几个世纪以来,赠送礼物的行为具有重要意义,不仅在于它的物质交换,还在于它建立的联系)”可知,此处是对赠送礼物的意义简要概述,结合第二段的首句“Central to this joy is the sense of connection it forms.(这种快乐的核心是它所形成的联系感)”可知,此空既是对赠送礼物的意义的简述,也应引出下文,E选项“While it is delightful to receive gifts, giving itself often brings about greater joy.(虽然收到礼物是令人愉快的,但给予本身往往带来更大的快乐)”可知,此处讲述的是赠送礼物会给人带来快乐,进而引出下文中介绍快乐的核心,joy为解题的关键信息,符合语境。故选E项。
7.根据空前的“Selecting a gift involves a thoughtful investment of time and consideration into understanding the receiver’s needs.(选择礼物需要花时间和考虑了解收礼人的需要)”可知,此处指的是选择礼物的过程,G选项“This process improves emotional connections, deepening each other’s appreciation.(这个过程改善了情感联系,加深了彼此的欣赏)”中的this process指的是空前的“选择礼物的过程”,承接上文。故选G项。
8.根据空前的“Moreover, gift-giving develops empathy (同理心).(此外,赠送礼物还能培养同理心)”可知,此处讲述的是赠送礼物会带来的好处——培养同理心,结合空后的“This selfless act of putting someone else’s happiness before our own allows us to experience a sense of fulfillment that arises from making a positive impact on someone’s life.(这种把别人的幸福放在自己的幸福之前的无私行为让我们体验到一种满足感,这种满足感来自于对别人的生活产生积极的影响)”可知,培养同理心带来的好处,由此可推断,此空讲述的内容应与“同理心”相关,D选项“It enables us to truly understand the emotions of our family.(它将我们的注意力从自我中心转移到他人的幸福上)”讲述的内容是对“同理心”的进一步阐述,符合语境。故选D项。
9.分析语篇可知,此处应为本段的主题句,根据下文的“The act of receiving a gift may bring immediate happiness, but over time, that joy may fade. In contrast, the act of giving gifts leaves a lasting impression on both the giver and the receiver.(收到礼物的行为可能会立即带来快乐,但随着时间的推移,这种快乐可能会消失。相反,送礼的行为会给送礼者和受礼者留下持久的印象)”可知,此处讲述的是相比收到礼物带来的快乐,送礼物的行为会给双方带来更持久的印象,由此可知,本段讲述的内容与赠送礼物这一行为带来的快乐的持久性相关,A选项“Gift-giving has the power to create lasting memories.(送礼物有创造持久记忆的力量)”讲述的内容与本段讲述的内容吻合,可以概括本段的主题。故选A项。
10.此空位于文章最后,应是进行总结,结合空前的“The power of connection, empathy, and the creation of lasting memories are some of the reasons why giving gifts makes us happier than receiving them.(联系、同理心和创造持久记忆的力量是送礼物比收礼物让我们更快乐的一些原因)”可知,送礼物在创建联系,培养同理心以及创造持久记忆方面,送礼物都比收礼物更让人快乐,所以,文章最后应是提出送礼物的建议,F选项“So, let’s welcome the joy of giving, celebrating its power to enrich relationships.(所以,让我们欢迎给予的喜悦,庆祝它丰富人际关系的力量)”中的“let’s welcome the joy of giving”提议人们欢迎给予的快乐,也就是建议人们赠送礼物,这样会带来更多的快乐,符合语境。故选F项。

Passage 2
(24-25高二上·辽宁大连·期中)
Fall is here, whether you like it or not. Soon the weather will get colder. 6 Another year is dying; that’s just how it goes. Studies suggest that if you are deeply preoccupied with your thoughts in the autumn, you may be at more risk for depression in the winter. No wonder fall has various celebrations intended to keep our spirits up.
Psychologists say that the feelings that often crop up in autumn come from our discomfort with change, and an anxiety and uncertainty about what that change will bring. 7 Among those things, the anxiety, the promise and even the careful thoughts function differently. They make it the ideal season to build resilience and practice mindfulness.
But intolerance of uncertainty is a part of being human; everyone has it on some level. And it is changeable. 8 It’s an approach worth trying to cultivate uncertainty rather than escaping from it.
Another strategy experts suggest for relieving anxiety is to step back and simply observe the world around you. Quietly sit on a park bench and watch a tree drop its leaves, for instance. 9
Autumn will probably hold some whisper of decay and death. 10 If you are always trying to avoid difficult feelings, you might end up also cutting yourself off from love, richness and sweetness. Dr. Wilson said, “this is how life is: sweet and sad, poured from the same vessel in equal measure.”
A.In fact, it is not that bad.
B.But embracing that sadness is important.
C.One way to build tolerance is to lean into it.
D.The leaves will die and the nights will stretch longer.
E.After all, it’s a time to appreciate what nature offers you.
F.Also, fall brings with bright days, sweet fruits and cozy sweaters.
G.In such moments, you may as well stop thinking or analyzing current troubles.
【答案】6.D 7.A 8.C 9.G 10.B
【导语】这是一篇说明文。短文介绍了秋天会出现的情绪波动甚至抑郁,并提出了一些调整方法。
6.根据上文“Soon the weather will get colder. (天气很快就会变冷。)”和下文“Another year is dying; that’s just how it goes. (又一年即将结束;事物就是这样的。) ”可知,此处描述了秋天的到来会带来的一些变化。故D选项“树叶会枯萎,黑夜会延长。”符合语境。故选D项。
7.根据上文“Psychologists say that the feelings that often crop up in autumn come from our discomfort with change, and an anxiety and uncertainty about what that change will bring. (心理学家说,秋天经常出现的感觉来自于我们对变化的不适,以及对变化会带来什么的焦虑和不确定。)”和下文“Among those things, the anxiety, the promise and even the careful thoughts function differently. They make it the ideal season to build resilience and practice mindfulness. (其中,焦虑、承诺甚至仔细的思考的作用不同。它们使之成为培养韧性和练习正念的理想季节。)”可知,选项与上文为转折关系且承接下文,说明情况也没有那么糟糕。故A选项“事实上,情况并没有那么糟糕。”切题。故选A项。
8.根据上文“But intolerance of uncertainty is a part of being human; everyone has it on some level. And it is changeable. (但不能容忍不确定性是人类的一部分;每个人在某种程度上都有这种感觉。而且它是可变的。)”和下文“It’s an approach worth trying to cultivate uncertainty rather than escaping from it. (这是一种值得尝试培养不确定性而不是逃避不确定性的方法。)”可知,选项承接上下文,介绍了一种应对不能容忍不确定性的方法。故C选项“培养宽容的一种方法是向宽容靠拢”切题。故选C项。
9.根据上文“Another strategy experts suggest for relieving anxiety is to step back and simply observe the world around you. Quietly sit on a park bench and watch a tree drop its leaves, for instance. (专家建议的另一种缓解焦虑的策略是退后一步,简单地观察你周围的世界。例如,静静地坐在公园的长椅上,看着一棵树落叶。)”可知,本段主要在说缓解焦虑的策略是退后一步,不要去纠结于焦虑本身,停止思考,简单地观察你周围的世界。故G选项“在这样的时刻,你最好停止思考或分析当前的麻烦。”符合语境。故选G项。
10.根据下文“If you are always trying to avoid difficult feelings, you might end up also cutting yourself off from love, richness and sweetness. (如果你总是试图避免困难的感觉,你最终也可能会切断自己与爱、财富和甜蜜的联系。)”可知,不能逃避悲伤而是要拥抱悲伤。故B选项“但拥抱这种悲伤很重要。”符合语境,承接下文。故选B项。
Passage 3
(24-25高二上·吉林·期中)
Tidying your desk, watering your plants or folding laundry — these household chores are hardly the height of hedonism (享乐主义). 11 . Psychologists suggest there are many potential mechanisms that might explain the perfect pleasure of puttering (慢条斯理地做) . They may well encourage you to engage in it more often.
Pleasant distractions
On the surface level, puttering may be useful because it occupies the mind, so that we give fewer resources to the things that are worrying us. For instance, we may find household tasks can help us focus on the present moment. People completing these small tasks often report a significantly better mood. 12 , as if the immersion (沉浸) in the simple activity had refreshed their minds.
13
Unlike other distracting activities — such as playing computer games or watching trashy TV — puttering also has the advantage of being positive and useful, increasing our “perceived control”. When we feel anxious, a sense of helplessness can heighten the physiological stress response, increasing levels of hormones. Ideally, we would deal directly with the upsetting situation itself. But research suggests we can gain a perception of control from activities that may have little effect on the situation that’s bothering us.
Tidy room, focused mind
14 . If your puttering takes the form of organizing and decluttering (清理), you may find that the tidier environment is itself a form of comfort. To summarize, if we see order outside, it helps us to feel a bit less chaotic inside. 15 .
A.Being powerful
B.A feeling of control
C.The benefits do not end there
D.We will feel great anxiety in our mind
E.This included reduced nervousness and even a sense of “inspiration”
F.It is comforting because it makes life easier to manage and more predictable
G.Yet we often find ourselves seeking pleasure and comfort in small repetitive tasks
【答案】11.G 12.E 13.B 14.C 15.F
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了家务活等简单重复任务如何通过提供心理上的慰藉、增强控制感和整理环境来改善人的心情和减轻压力。
11.上文“Tidying your desk, watering your plants or folding laundry — these household chores are hardly the height of hedonism (享乐主义).(整理办公桌、浇花或叠衣服——这些家务活并不是享乐主义的最高境界)”说明家务活并不是典型的享乐行为。空处和前文形成转折关系,并且引出下文。G项中的yet为转折连词,“seeking pleasure and comfort in small repetitive tasks”和下文“might explain the perfect pleasure of puttering (慢条斯理地做)”相呼应,说明尽管家务活并不是享乐主义的最高境界,但是人们还是会在这些琐碎的任务中找到乐趣。所以G项“然而,我们经常发现自己在重复的小任务中寻求快乐和安慰”符合语境。故选G。
12.上文“People completing these small tasks often report a significantly better mood.(完成这些小任务的人通常会报告心情明显好转)”以及下文“as if the immersion (沉浸) in the simple activity had refreshed their minds.(仿佛沉浸在简单的活动中让他们精神焕发)”说明完成家务小任务会让人心情明显好转。空处进一步说明心情变好的具体表现。E项中的“reduced nervousness and even a sense of “inspiration””和上文中的“a significantly better mood”相呼应,也和下文的“refreshed their minds”相呼应,所以E项“这包括减少了紧张感,甚至有一种“灵感”的感觉”符合语境。故选E。
13.下文“Unlike other distracting activities — such as playing computer games or watching trashy TV— puttering also has the advantage of being positive and useful, increasing our “perceived control”.(不像其他分散注意力的活动——比如玩电脑游戏或看低质量的电视节目——慢条斯理地做事情也有其积极和有用的一面,能增加我们的“感知控制力”)”以及“But research suggests we can gain a perception of control from activities that may have little effect on the situation that’s bothering us.(但研究表明,我们可以从对困扰我们的情况影响不大的活动中获得控制感)”说明与其他分散注意力的活动相比,慢条斯理地做事还具有积极和有用的优势,可以增加我们的“感知控制”。所以B项“控制的感觉”适合作本段的主旨句。故选B。
14.标题“Tidy room, focused mind(整洁的房间,专注的思维)”以及下文“If your puttering takes the form of organizing and decluttering (清理), you may find that the tidier environment is itself a form of comfort.(如果你的慢条斯理表现为整理和去杂乱,你可能会发现,整洁的环境本身就是一种安慰)”说明整洁的环境能让人专注,而且如果你的慢条斯理表现为整理和去杂乱,整洁的环境本身就是一种安慰。所以空处承上启下,既总结了标题提到的好处,也引出下文中其它的好处。所以C项“好处不仅仅于此”符合语境。故选C。
15.上文“To summarize, if we see order outside, it helps us to feel a bit less chaotic inside.(总结来说,如果我们看到外界是有序的,这会帮助我们感觉到内心不那么混乱)”说明整洁的外部环境能带来内心的平静。空处顺接前文,进一步说明整洁的外部环境带来的好处。F项“这让人感到安慰,因为它使生活更容易管理且更具可预测性”符合语境,it指代前文中提到的“order outside”。故选F。

Whether you’re an experienced dog handler or a little careful about dogs, it can be difficult to read a dog’s complex language. How do you know if the dog wants to greet you or tell you to back off? 6
A content and relaxed dog will have its ears up (not forward) and head high. 7 Your relaxed dog’s mouth opens slightly with tongue exposed. If you are still unsure of whether to approach, go slowly and make no sudden moves. Don’t make too much eye contact and slowly extend the back of your hand for the dog to sniff (嗅) first before patting.
After this welcome interaction, dogs may raise their tails and lower front paws (爪子). 8 This position will be held briefly before they rush off in random directions to get you to chase and to play with them. They stick out their tongues. Their ears will be up. This is your chance to have a run with your partner.
9 They show more teeth, bark more loudly and hide the tails between their legs. They are ready to attack when annoyed. Be careful of these unusual gestures. These signals are expressed as they directly face their source of “threat”.
A dog that is under social or environmental stress will pace about with the tail down, the body lowered and ears back. Its breath will also be rapid with eyes expanded. 10 In this case, try to work out the source of its stress. If you can’t change that right away, a calming massage (按摩) will help.
A.Although a happy dog will have its tail high, a relaxed dog’s tail will be hanging.
B.The following is a handy dog body language guide.
C.And it may leave sweat marks from its feet.
D.The moods can be judged from their tails.

Passage 3
(24-25高二上·黑龙江伊春·期中)
How to stay safe in crowded places
Before you head out to a fun event where there will be many people, you should be aware of the dangers of a crowd crush.
Though the risk of a crowd crush is rare, it can be deadly when it happens. A crowd crush occurs when many people are packed (挤) together and begin to fall over one another. 11 To avoid such a fate (命运), it’s best to escape the crush before it happens.
Before attending a crowded event, look at a map of the site. This will give you an idea of the surroundings — pay special attention to any exits. Once you arrive, choosing the right spot can be extremely important. Avoid the middle or front; instead, pick the back of a crowd. It’s also important to trust your feelings. 12 The more crowded the event becomes, the sooner you may need to return to a safe place.
If you do end up in a crowd crush, here’s how you can stay safe. The most important thing you can do is stay on your feet. To do this, spread your feet apart and bend (弯曲) your knees a little. 13 Trying to move against a large group of people will only end in disaster.
14 Once one person falls down, more people tend to fall over them. So if your neighbor in the crowd falls to the ground, help them up.
A common cause of death in a crowd crush isn’t being crushed but rather a lack of air. It’s best to hold out your arms in front of your chest (胸部). 15 It also protects your chest and lungs from being crushed on the ground should you fall.
A.There is usually fun where the crowds are.
B.Stay aware to see if you feel packed in at any point.
C.Also make sure to move with the flow of the crowd.
D.Helping others is another great way to keep everyone safe.
E.Some people lose awareness while they’re still standing up.
F.This makes space between you and the person in front of you.
G.In the past, such instances have caused horrible injury and even death.
【答案】11.G 12.B 13.C 14.D 15.F
【分析】这是一篇说明文。短文介绍了如何在人多的地方保持安全。
11.根据上文“Though the risk of a crowd crush is rare, it can be deadly when it happens. A crowd crush occurs when many people are packed (挤) together and begin to fall over one another.( 虽然人群挤压的风险很少见,但一旦发生就可能是致命的。当许多人挤在一起并开始互相摔倒时,就会发生人群挤压)”和下文“To avoid such a fate (命运), it’s best to escape the crush before it happens.(为了避免这样的命运,最好在踩踏发生之前就逃离它)”可知,选项说明发生挤压所带来的伤害。故G选项 “在过去,这种情况造成了可怕的伤害,甚至死亡”切题。故选G项。
12.根据上文“Avoid the middle or front; instead, pick the back of a crowd. It’s also important to trust your feelings.(避免在中间或前面;相反,选择人群的后面)”和下文“The more crowded the event becomes, the sooner you may need to return to a safe place.(活动越拥挤,你可能需要越早回到安全的地方)”可知,选项承接上下文说明人群越来越拥挤时的感觉和处理。故B选项“保持警觉,看看你在任何时候是否感到被挤”切题。故选B项。
13.根据下文“Trying to move against a large group of people will only end in disaster.(试图在一大群人中逆流而行只会以灾难告终)”可知,选项应指出要随着人流移动。故C选项“还要确保随人群的流动而移动”切题。故选C项。
14.根据下文“Once one person falls down, more people tend to fall over them. So if your neighbor in the crowd falls to the ground, help them up.(一旦一个人倒下,就会有更多的人倒在他身上。所以如果你的邻居在人群中跌倒在地,扶起他们)”可知,本段主要讲要帮助别人。故D选项“帮助他人是保证每个人安全的另一个好方法”切题,为本段的主旨句。故选D项。
15.根据上文“A common cause of death in a crowd crush isn’t being crushed but rather a lack of air. It’s best to hold out your arms in front of your chest(胸部).(在人群挤压中死亡的常见原因不是被挤压,而是缺乏空气。最好把你的手臂伸到胸前)”可知,选项承接上文说明上文动作的作用。故F选项“这会在你和你前面的人之间留出空间”切题,this指代上文提到的“hold out your arms in front of your chest”。故选F项。
