19.Unit 4 Interests and Abilities（主题阅读）-2025-2026学年上学期七年级英语知识点梳理与巩固（北师大版2024）

2025-2026学年上学期七年级英语知识点梳理与巩固(北师大版2024) Unit 4 Interests and Abilities主题阅读 必备知识清单 单元主题阅读 一、阅读主题 本主题聚焦 “兴趣、业余爱好与能力倾向”，核心是引导学生认识个人及他人的兴趣偏好（如运动、艺术、学科等）与对应能力表现，理解兴趣对能力发展的推动作用，以及二者与未来职业规划的关联。通过多元化语篇（如学生自述、人物访谈等），帮助学生掌握相关表达，同时培养自我认知与跨文化理解能力。 1. 主题内涵 指个体在业余时间主动投入的爱好（hobbies）、擅长的技能（skills）及潜在的能力倾向（aptitudes），涵盖 “兴趣类型 — 能力表现 — 发展价值” 三层逻辑。 兴趣类型：包括运动类（swimming, ice-skating）、艺术类（painting, playing the guitar）、学术类（reading, doing experiments）等。 能力表现：既指具体技能（can swim fast, write good stories），也包括综合素养（creative, energetic）。 示例："Janusz is crazy about reading. He can write good stories and dreams of being a writer." 2. 素养体现 紧扣英语学科核心素养，侧重三大维度： 语言能力：掌握 “兴趣 / 能力” 相关词汇与句式，能读懂人物兴趣描述语篇。 示例：通过阅读 Peter 的自述"I'm good at singing. I hope to be a great singer"，理解 “be good at” 表能力的用法。 思维品质：分析兴趣与能力的因果关系（如"Swimming makes me energetic, so I practise every weekend"）。 学习能力：通过归纳语篇中兴趣类型，自主梳理个人兴趣清单。 3. 策略要求 针对主题语篇特点，需掌握三类阅读策略： 信息定位：快速找出 “兴趣名词 + 能力描述” 关键搭配（如"painting — paint beautiful pictures"）。 词义猜测：结合上下文理解派生词（如由 “music” 推测 “musician” 意为 “音乐家”）。 逻辑梳理：用表格整理 “人物 — 兴趣 — 能力 — 梦想” 对应关系，例如： Person Hobby Ability Dream Job Maria Swimming Swim like a fish Pilot Li Jie Sports Be good at ice-skating Scientist 4. 文化品质 展现中西方兴趣与职业认知的共性与差异： 共性：均重视兴趣对职业的引领（如中国学生 Li Jie 因爱自然想当科学家，英国学生 Peter 因爱唱歌想当歌手）。 差异：西方语篇更强调 “个人兴趣优先”，中国案例常融入 “社会责任”（如科学家职业的价值）。 示例："In the UK, Peter’s hobby (singing) directly shapes his dream; in China, Li Jie’s interest (nature) links to scientific research for society." 二、词汇句式 1. 主题词汇 （1）兴趣与爱好类 hobby 爱好；swimming 游泳；painting 绘画；reading 阅读；music 音乐；guitar 吉他；drama 戏剧；science 科学；ice-skating 滑冰；skiing 滑雪；cooking 烹饪；writing 写作；sports 体育运动；singing 唱歌；dancing 跳舞 （2）能力与技能类 ability 能力；skill 技能；can 能；cannot (can’t) 不能；be good at 擅长；be crazy about 痴迷于；creative 有创造力的；energetic 精力充沛的；curious 好奇的；amazing 令人惊叹的；relaxed 放松的；fast 快速地；well 出色地；type 打字；join 加入 （3）职业与发展类 writer 作家；artist 艺术家；musician 音乐家；singer 歌手；scientist 科学家；swimmer 游泳运动员；pilot 飞行员；winner 获胜者；future 未来；hope 希望；effort 努力；dream 梦想；application 申请；volunteer 志愿者 （4）情感与评价类 happy 开心的；fun 有趣的；magic 神奇的；excellent 优秀的；interested 感兴趣的；be interested in 对…… 感兴趣 2. 主题句式 （1）兴趣表达类 My favorite hobby is... 我最喜欢的爱好是…… （My favorite hobby is painting. 我最喜欢的爱好是绘画。） I enjoy doing sth in my free time. 我业余时间喜欢做某事。 （I enjoy reading books in my free time. 我业余时间喜欢读书。） I am crazy about... 我痴迷于…… （I am crazy about playing the guitar. 我痴迷于弹吉他。） ... makes me + 形容词 …… 让我感到…… （Swimming makes me energetic. 游泳让我精力充沛。） I am interested in... 我对…… 感兴趣。 （I am interested in science. 我对科学感兴趣。） （2）能力描述类 I can + 动词原形 我能…… （I can swim very fast. 我能游得很快。） I can’t + 动词原形 我不能…… （I can’t ski. 我不会滑雪。） I am good at (doing) sth 我擅长（做）某事。 （I am good at writing stories. 我擅长写故事。） This robot can do many things. 这个机器人能做很多事。 He has the ability to... 他有…… 的能力。 （He has the ability to paint beautiful pictures. 他有画漂亮画的能力。） （3）询问与交流类 What’s your hobby? 你的爱好是什么？ Can you play the guitar? 你会弹吉他吗？ What can you do well? 你什么能做得好？ Why do you like this hobby? 你为什么喜欢这个爱好？ What do you think of...? 你觉得…… 怎么样？ （What do you think of singing? 你觉得唱歌怎么样？） （4）未来规划类 I hope to be a (n)... in the future. 我希望将来成为一名…… （I hope to be a scientist in the future. 我希望将来成为一名科学家。） My dream job is... 我梦想的工作是…… （My dream job is a singer. 我梦想的工作是歌手。） I want to learn... so that I can... 我想学习…… 以便能…… （I want to learn English so that I can be a writer. 我想学习英语以便能成为一名作家。） （5）综合描述类 She likes... and she can... 她喜欢…… 并且她能…… （She likes dancing and she can dance well. 她喜欢跳舞并且她能跳得很好。） His hobby is... because it helps him... 他的爱好是…… 因为它帮助他…… （His hobby is reading because it helps him relax. 他的爱好是读书因为它帮助他放松。） I often do... with my friends. 我经常和朋友们一起做…… （I often play football with my friends. 我经常和朋友们一起踢足球。） It is fun to do... 做…… 很有趣。 （It is fun to ice-skate. 滑冰很有趣。） Thank you for telling me about your hobbies. 谢谢你告诉我你的爱好。 He practices... four times a week. 他一周练习…… 四次。 （He practices the guitar four times a week. 他一周练吉他四次。） We all love... and we often do it together. 我们都喜欢…… 并且经常一起做。 （We all love cooking and we often do it together. 我们都喜欢做饭并且经常一起做。） What kind of hobbies do you prefer? 你更喜欢哪种爱好？ She is a (n)... because she is good at... 她是一名…… 因为她擅长…… （She is an artist because she is good at painting. 她是一名艺术家因为她擅长绘画。） I think... is a great way to improve... 我认为…… 是提升…… 的好方法。 （I think reading is a great way to improve writing. 我认为读书是提升写作的好方法。） They are good at working together because of their common hobby. 因为共同的爱好，他们擅长合作。 My brother doesn’t like... but he can... 我哥哥不喜欢…… 但他能…… （My brother doesn’t like singing but he can play the guitar. 我哥哥不喜欢唱歌但他能弹吉他。） It feels like magic when I do... 当我做…… 的时候感觉很神奇。 （It feels like magic when I do science experiments. 当我做科学实验的时候感觉很神奇。） 三、优化策略 1. 关键信息定位策略 核心逻辑：“兴趣 — 能力 — 梦想” 是本主题语篇的核心线索，需锁定三类关键词。 应用方法：圈画兴趣名词（如 swimming, reading）、能力动词（can swim, write）及职业名词（scientist, singer）。用箭头连接逻辑关系（例：painting → can paint beautiful pictures → dream job: artist）。 2. 词义猜测策略 核心逻辑：利用 “词根词缀”“上下文举例” 猜测主题词汇。 应用方法：派生词：由 “music”（音乐）推测 “musician”（音乐家），由 “write”（写）推测 “writer”（作家）。例如，通过 “such as swimming, ice-skating” 理解 “sports” 的含义。 3. 跨文化对比策略 核心逻辑：通过不同国家人物的兴趣描述，感知文化差异。 应用方法：梳理语篇中中外人物的兴趣偏好（如英国 Peter 爱唱歌，中国 Li Jie 爱自然）。对比职业选择逻辑（西方更侧重个人兴趣，中方兼顾兴趣与社会价值）。例如：对比 “Peter wants to be a singer because of his love for Jack’s voice” 与 “Li Jie wants to be a scientist to study nature”，理解文化差异。 4. 表格归纳策略 核心逻辑：用结构化方式整合分散信息，强化理解。 应用方法：阅读多个人物自述后，制作 “人物 — 国家 — 兴趣 — 能力 — 梦想” 表格（如主题内涵中的示例表），直观呈现逻辑关系。避免信息混乱，便于后续对比分析与写作迁移。 综合实战演练 1 Can animals draw?

It’s not a scene from a movie, but a form of intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗产)—bamboo drifting (独竹漂). Yang Liu,24, is an inheritor (传承人) of bamboo drifting. She started to learn it from her grandmother when she was 7. As she was weak in health as a child, her grandmother wanted her to get into better shape through this sport. Yang threw herself into practicing bamboo drifting all year round, even in the winter cold and summer heat. “It was common for me to fall into the water when I started practicing,” recalled Yang, adding that it took her three years to learn the basic skills of bamboo drifting. In order to acquire more bamboo drifting skills, Yang had to practice countless difficult movements on a bamboo pole that was 9 m in length and 15 cm in diameter (直径), and stand all the physical pain that came with it. Through years of hard training, Yang now considers the bamboo pole as her “best friend”. At one point, inspired by her grandmother, Yang began to combine dance with bamboo drifting. “My grandmother came up with an idea. She said that I had been practicing bamboo drifting since I was a child, so why not try to combine dance with the skill? It might be something different.” the young woman explained. Yang’s hard work gradually paid off when she was able to perfectly perform dancing with the traditional bamboo drifting skills. “I hope that more people can know about bamboo drifting and enjoy this form of art.” said Yang. 18．Why did Yang’s grandmother let her learn bamboo drifting? A．Because it could help Yang build up her body. B．Because Yang was very talented for it. C．Because it was the traditional skill of Yang’s family. D．Because Yang wanted to know about the intangible cultural heritage. 19．What does the underlined word “acquire” mean in English? A．Sell. B．Collect. C．Master. D．Refuse. 20．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A．Yang is a little tired of bamboo drifting now. B．Yang hopes bamboo drifting can be known by more people. C．Yang used to stop practicing because it was too cold in winter. D．Yang spent 3 months learning the basic skills of bamboo drifting. 21．Which word can be used to describe Yang’s grandmother? A．Hard-working. B．Helpful. C．Kind-hearted. D．Creative. 22．Which part of a newspaper might this passage come from? A．Travel. B．Education. C．Culture.

Many people think that being with others all the time makes us happy, but I have learned that it’s OK to take time for ourselves. In the past, I joined every club, took part in every class activity, and replied to every group message (消息). These things made me very tired and stressed (心力交瘁的). I thought, “Is there something wrong with me when I want to be alone?” I decided to try spending time alone and see how it felt. At first, it was hard, but soon I grew to like it. When I was alone, I felt calmer little by little. This time gave me a chance to enjoy peaceful moments, think clearly, and understand my feelings. In a busy and noisy world, finding such alone time helped me feel comfortable and return to myself. This kind of solitude helped me discover deep calmness and power. However, connecting with others is still important. It helps us make friends and stay close to people we care about. But our energy isn’t endless, so we need to use it carefully. Sometimes, answering messages can feel tiring. It’s OK to take a break before replying. This doesn’t mean we don’t care—it means we’re taking care of ourselves. After resting when we’re tired, we feel better, calmer, and think more clearly. Looking after ourselves is not selfish (自私的). In fact, it helps us be there for others when we’re ready. So, don’t feel bad about needing alone time. Taking care of ourselves doesn’t mean we are powerless—it’s the first step to a happier and more peaceful life. Remember to rest when we need to. 60．The writer uses his/her example to tell us that ________. A．fast life leads to poor social skills B．taking time for oneself is OK in a busy life C．joining in every activity brings us happiness D．being with others all the time makes us relaxed 61．What does the word “solitude” in Paragraph 3 most probably mean?

B．Looking after ourselves can improve our life. C．Spending time alone is selfish and unhelpful. D．Being social is more important than staying alone. 63．What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage? A．To compare different ways to live a happy life. B．To discuss the importance of connecting with others. C．To suggest people balance time alone and with others. D．To call on people to spend more time caring for others. ( 1 / 1 )学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2025-2026学年上学期七年级英语知识点梳理与巩固(北师大版2024) Unit 4 Interests and Abilities主题阅读 必备知识清单 单元主题阅读 一、阅读主题 本主题聚焦 “兴趣、业余爱好与能力倾向”，核心是引导学生认识个人及他人的兴趣偏好（如运动、艺术、学科等）与对应能力表现，理解兴趣对能力发展的推动作用，以及二者与未来职业规划的关联。通过多元化语篇（如学生自述、人物访谈等），帮助学生掌握相关表达，同时培养自我认知与跨文化理解能力。 1. 主题内涵 指个体在业余时间主动投入的爱好（hobbies）、擅长的技能（skills）及潜在的能力倾向（aptitudes），涵盖 “兴趣类型 — 能力表现 — 发展价值” 三层逻辑。 兴趣类型：包括运动类（swimming, ice-skating）、艺术类（painting, playing the guitar）、学术类（reading, doing experiments）等。 能力表现：既指具体技能（can swim fast, write good stories），也包括综合素养（creative, energetic）。 示例："Janusz is crazy about reading. He can write good stories and dreams of being a writer." 2. 素养体现 紧扣英语学科核心素养，侧重三大维度： 语言能力：掌握 “兴趣 / 能力” 相关词汇与句式，能读懂人物兴趣描述语篇。 示例：通过阅读 Peter 的自述"I'm good at singing. I hope to be a great singer"，理解 “be good at” 表能力的用法。 思维品质：分析兴趣与能力的因果关系（如"Swimming makes me energetic, so I practise every weekend"）。 学习能力：通过归纳语篇中兴趣类型，自主梳理个人兴趣清单。 3. 策略要求 针对主题语篇特点，需掌握三类阅读策略： 信息定位：快速找出 “兴趣名词 + 能力描述” 关键搭配（如"painting — paint beautiful pictures"）。 词义猜测：结合上下文理解派生词（如由 “music” 推测 “musician” 意为 “音乐家”）。 逻辑梳理：用表格整理 “人物 — 兴趣 — 能力 — 梦想” 对应关系，例如： Person Hobby Ability Dream Job Maria Swimming Swim like a fish Pilot Li Jie Sports Be good at ice-skating Scientist 4. 文化品质 展现中西方兴趣与职业认知的共性与差异： 共性：均重视兴趣对职业的引领（如中国学生 Li Jie 因爱自然想当科学家，英国学生 Peter 因爱唱歌想当歌手）。 差异：西方语篇更强调 “个人兴趣优先”，中国案例常融入 “社会责任”（如科学家职业的价值）。 示例："In the UK, Peter’s hobby (singing) directly shapes his dream; in China, Li Jie’s interest (nature) links to scientific research for society." 二、词汇句式 1. 主题词汇 （1）兴趣与爱好类 hobby 爱好；swimming 游泳；painting 绘画；reading 阅读；music 音乐；guitar 吉他；drama 戏剧；science 科学；ice-skating 滑冰；skiing 滑雪；cooking 烹饪；writing 写作；sports 体育运动；singing 唱歌；dancing 跳舞 （2）能力与技能类 ability 能力；skill 技能；can 能；cannot (can’t) 不能；be good at 擅长；be crazy about 痴迷于；creative 有创造力的；energetic 精力充沛的；curious 好奇的；amazing 令人惊叹的；relaxed 放松的；fast 快速地；well 出色地；type 打字；join 加入 （3）职业与发展类 writer 作家；artist 艺术家；musician 音乐家；singer 歌手；scientist 科学家；swimmer 游泳运动员；pilot 飞行员；winner 获胜者；future 未来；hope 希望；effort 努力；dream 梦想；application 申请；volunteer 志愿者 （4）情感与评价类 happy 开心的；fun 有趣的；magic 神奇的；excellent 优秀的；interested 感兴趣的；be interested in 对…… 感兴趣 2. 主题句式 （1）兴趣表达类 My favorite hobby is... 我最喜欢的爱好是…… （My favorite hobby is painting. 我最喜欢的爱好是绘画。） I enjoy doing sth in my free time. 我业余时间喜欢做某事。 （I enjoy reading books in my free time. 我业余时间喜欢读书。） I am crazy about... 我痴迷于…… （I am crazy about playing the guitar. 我痴迷于弹吉他。） ... makes me + 形容词 …… 让我感到…… （Swimming makes me energetic. 游泳让我精力充沛。） I am interested in... 我对…… 感兴趣。 （I am interested in science. 我对科学感兴趣。） （2）能力描述类 I can + 动词原形 我能…… （I can swim very fast. 我能游得很快。） I can’t + 动词原形 我不能…… （I can’t ski. 我不会滑雪。） I am good at (doing) sth 我擅长（做）某事。 （I am good at writing stories. 我擅长写故事。） This robot can do many things. 这个机器人能做很多事。 He has the ability to... 他有…… 的能力。 （He has the ability to paint beautiful pictures. 他有画漂亮画的能力。） （3）询问与交流类 What’s your hobby? 你的爱好是什么？ Can you play the guitar? 你会弹吉他吗？ What can you do well? 你什么能做得好？ Why do you like this hobby? 你为什么喜欢这个爱好？ What do you think of...? 你觉得…… 怎么样？ （What do you think of singing? 你觉得唱歌怎么样？） （4）未来规划类 I hope to be a (n)... in the future. 我希望将来成为一名…… （I hope to be a scientist in the future. 我希望将来成为一名科学家。） My dream job is... 我梦想的工作是…… （My dream job is a singer. 我梦想的工作是歌手。） I want to learn... so that I can... 我想学习…… 以便能…… （I want to learn English so that I can be a writer. 我想学习英语以便能成为一名作家。） （5）综合描述类 She likes... and she can... 她喜欢…… 并且她能…… （She likes dancing and she can dance well. 她喜欢跳舞并且她能跳得很好。） His hobby is... because it helps him... 他的爱好是…… 因为它帮助他…… （His hobby is reading because it helps him relax. 他的爱好是读书因为它帮助他放松。） I often do... with my friends. 我经常和朋友们一起做…… （I often play football with my friends. 我经常和朋友们一起踢足球。） It is fun to do... 做…… 很有趣。 （It is fun to ice-skate. 滑冰很有趣。） Thank you for telling me about your hobbies. 谢谢你告诉我你的爱好。 He practices... four times a week. 他一周练习…… 四次。 （He practices the guitar four times a week. 他一周练吉他四次。） We all love... and we often do it together. 我们都喜欢…… 并且经常一起做。 （We all love cooking and we often do it together. 我们都喜欢做饭并且经常一起做。） What kind of hobbies do you prefer? 你更喜欢哪种爱好？ She is a (n)... because she is good at... 她是一名…… 因为她擅长…… （She is an artist because she is good at painting. 她是一名艺术家因为她擅长绘画。） I think... is a great way to improve... 我认为…… 是提升…… 的好方法。 （I think reading is a great way to improve writing. 我认为读书是提升写作的好方法。） They are good at working together because of their common hobby. 因为共同的爱好，他们擅长合作。 My brother doesn’t like... but he can... 我哥哥不喜欢…… 但他能…… （My brother doesn’t like singing but he can play the guitar. 我哥哥不喜欢唱歌但他能弹吉他。） It feels like magic when I do... 当我做…… 的时候感觉很神奇。 （It feels like magic when I do science experiments. 当我做科学实验的时候感觉很神奇。） 三、优化策略 1. 关键信息定位策略 核心逻辑：“兴趣 — 能力 — 梦想” 是本主题语篇的核心线索，需锁定三类关键词。 应用方法：圈画兴趣名词（如 swimming, reading）、能力动词（can swim, write）及职业名词（scientist, singer）。用箭头连接逻辑关系（例：painting → can paint beautiful pictures → dream job: artist）。 2. 词义猜测策略 核心逻辑：利用 “词根词缀”“上下文举例” 猜测主题词汇。 应用方法：派生词：由 “music”（音乐）推测 “musician”（音乐家），由 “write”（写）推测 “writer”（作家）。例如，通过 “such as swimming, ice-skating” 理解 “sports” 的含义。 3. 跨文化对比策略 核心逻辑：通过不同国家人物的兴趣描述，感知文化差异。 应用方法：梳理语篇中中外人物的兴趣偏好（如英国 Peter 爱唱歌，中国 Li Jie 爱自然）。对比职业选择逻辑（西方更侧重个人兴趣，中方兼顾兴趣与社会价值）。例如：对比 “Peter wants to be a singer because of his love for Jack’s voice” 与 “Li Jie wants to be a scientist to study nature”，理解文化差异。 4. 表格归纳策略 核心逻辑：用结构化方式整合分散信息，强化理解。 应用方法：阅读多个人物自述后，制作 “人物 — 国家 — 兴趣 — 能力 — 梦想” 表格（如主题内涵中的示例表），直观呈现逻辑关系。避免信息混乱，便于后续对比分析与写作迁移。 综合实战演练 1 Can animals draw?

It’s not a scene from a movie, but a form of intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗产)—bamboo drifting (独竹漂). Yang Liu,24, is an inheritor (传承人) of bamboo drifting. She started to learn it from her grandmother when she was 7. As she was weak in health as a child, her grandmother wanted her to get into better shape through this sport. Yang threw herself into practicing bamboo drifting all year round, even in the winter cold and summer heat. “It was common for me to fall into the water when I started practicing,” recalled Yang, adding that it took her three years to learn the basic skills of bamboo drifting. In order to acquire more bamboo drifting skills, Yang had to practice countless difficult movements on a bamboo pole that was 9 m in length and 15 cm in diameter (直径), and stand all the physical pain that came with it. Through years of hard training, Yang now considers the bamboo pole as her “best friend”. At one point, inspired by her grandmother, Yang began to combine dance with bamboo drifting. “My grandmother came up with an idea. She said that I had been practicing bamboo drifting since I was a child, so why not try to combine dance with the skill? It might be something different.” the young woman explained. Yang’s hard work gradually paid off when she was able to perfectly perform dancing with the traditional bamboo drifting skills. “I hope that more people can know about bamboo drifting and enjoy this form of art.” said Yang. 18．Why did Yang’s grandmother let her learn bamboo drifting? A．Because it could help Yang build up her body. B．Because Yang was very talented for it. C．Because it was the traditional skill of Yang’s family. D．Because Yang wanted to know about the intangible cultural heritage. 19．What does the underlined word “acquire” mean in English? A．Sell. B．Collect. C．Master. D．Refuse. 20．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A．Yang is a little tired of bamboo drifting now. B．Yang hopes bamboo drifting can be known by more people. C．Yang used to stop practicing because it was too cold in winter. D．Yang spent 3 months learning the basic skills of bamboo drifting. 21．Which word can be used to describe Yang’s grandmother? A．Hard-working. B．Helpful. C．Kind-hearted. D．Creative. 22．Which part of a newspaper might this passage come from? A．Travel. B．Education. C．Culture.

In addition, hobbies can have an impact on our mental health. They can help us feel more positive and confident. For example, if you have a hobby of singing, you can improve your self-esteem by performing in front of others. Overall, hobbies are an important part of our lives. They can provide us with enjoyment, relief from stress, improvement of skills and knowledge, making of friends, and positive impact on mental health.

Many people think that being with others all the time makes us happy, but I have learned that it’s OK to take time for ourselves. In the past, I joined every club, took part in every class activity, and replied to every group message (消息). These things made me very tired and stressed (心力交瘁的). I thought, “Is there something wrong with me when I want to be alone?” I decided to try spending time alone and see how it felt. At first, it was hard, but soon I grew to like it. When I was alone, I felt calmer little by little. This time gave me a chance to enjoy peaceful moments, think clearly, and understand my feelings. In a busy and noisy world, finding such alone time helped me feel comfortable and return to myself. This kind of solitude helped me discover deep calmness and power. However, connecting with others is still important. It helps us make friends and stay close to people we care about. But our energy isn’t endless, so we need to use it carefully. Sometimes, answering messages can feel tiring. It’s OK to take a break before replying. This doesn’t mean we don’t care—it means we’re taking care of ourselves. After resting when we’re tired, we feel better, calmer, and think more clearly. Looking after ourselves is not selfish (自私的). In fact, it helps us be there for others when we’re ready. So, don’t feel bad about needing alone time. Taking care of ourselves doesn’t mean we are powerless—it’s the first step to a happier and more peaceful life. Remember to rest when we need to. 60．The writer uses his/her example to tell us that ________. A．fast life leads to poor social skills B．taking time for oneself is OK in a busy life C．joining in every activity brings us happiness D．being with others all the time makes us relaxed 61．What does the word “solitude” in Paragraph 3 most probably mean? A．Aloneness. B．Connection. C．Power. D．Happiness. 62．Which of the following would the writer most probably agree with? A．Forgetting our feelings helps us stay strong. B．Looking after ourselves can improve our life. C．Spending time alone is selfish and unhelpful. D．Being social is more important than staying alone. 63．What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage? A．To compare different ways to live a happy life. B．To discuss the importance of connecting with others. C．To suggest people balance time alone and with others. D．To call on people to spend more time caring for others. 参考答案 1 1．C 2．A 3．B 4．D 5．C 【解析】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了泰国会画画的大象和会弹钢琴的猫诺拉这两种有特殊才能的动物，展现了动物世界的奇妙。 1．细节理解题。根据“In Thailand, there are some very smart elephants.
