But Farber is certain he’ll have the last laugh. He’s one of a small but growing number of American veterinarians (兽医) now practicing “holistic” medicine – combining traditional Western treatments with acupuncture, chiropractic (按摩疗法) and herbal medicine. Farber, a graduate of Colorado State University, started out as a more conventional veterinarian. He became interested in alternative treatments 20 years ago when he suffered from terrible back pain. He tried muscle-relaxing drugs but found little relief. Then he tried acupuncture, an ancient Chinese practice, and was amazed that he improved after two or three treatments. What worked on a veterinarian seemed likely to work on his patients. So, after studying the techniques for a couple of years, he began offering them to pets. Leigh Tindale’s dog Charlie had a serious heart condition. After Charlie had a heart attack, Tindale says, she was prepared to put him to sleep, but Farber’s treatments eased her dog’s suffering so much that she was able to keep him alive for an additional five months. And Priscilla Dewing reports that her horse, Nappy, “moves more easily and rides more comfortably” after a chiropractic adjustment. Farber is certain that the holistic approach will grow more popular with time, and if the past is any indication, he may be right: Since 1982, membership in the American Holistic Veterinary Medical Association has grown from 30 to over 700. “Sometimes it surprises me that it works so well,” he says. “I will do anything to help an animal. That’s my job.” 24. What do some of Farber’s coworkers think of him? A. He’s odd. B. He’s strict. C. He’s brave. D. He’s rude. 25. Why did Farber decide to try acupuncture on pets? A. He was trained in it at university. B. He was inspired by another veterinarian. C. He benefited from it as a patient. D. He wanted to save money for pet owners. 26. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A. Steps of a chiropractic treatment. B. The complexity of veterinarians’ work. C. Examples of rare animal diseases. D. The effectiveness of holistic medicine. 27. Why does the author mention the American Holistic Veterinary Medical Association? A. To prove Farber’s point. B. To emphasize its importance. C. To praise veterinarians. D. To advocate animal protection. 【名校模拟】 (25-26高三上·海南省直辖县级单位·阶段练习)Life can feel terribly unfair. However, for some people, when life hands them the worst lemon, they try their best to make a lemonade. Jessie Joy Rees is just such a person. The blonde-haired, California kid with the big personality as fun as a day at the beach became the voice of courage for kids with cancer. Athletic and energetic, Jessie had her whole world in front of her until she was diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor(肿瘤)in 2011. Doctors estimated that she had just 1% chance of survival and less than a year to live. With no other treatment options, her family entered Jessie for a clinical trial. For weeks she underwent 30 rounds of radiotherapy. Amazingly, the pain and uncertainty never lessened her shine, and Jessie always remained positive throughout it all. Three weeks into her treatment, Jessie asked a mature question for such a young girl. Looking out at the other children who were also going through cancer treatment, she asked her parents: “How can we help them?” “She was determined to make other cancer kids happy,” her father Erik tenderly remembers. “How could we not help?” Though 12-year-old Jessie had a slight chance of beating cancer, she resolved to make the most of her time. The morning after her diagnosis, Jessie was at the kitchen table packing bags of toys for other cancer patients. The packages became hospital-safe plastic jars stuffed with toys, crafts and activities to surprise children while they are in the hospital for treatment. Joy Jars, named after Jessie’s middle name, contain a little bit of fun during ordinary days, but mostly they contain a little bit of Jessie’s positive attitude that fills the room every time one is opened. Jessie Joy Rees, a special soul who could radiate so much good in so short a time, passed away less than a year from her diagnosis. But her parents keep the joy alive. More than 400,000 Joy Jars have been delivered to children undergoing cancer treatment in all 50 states and over 50 countries, with each stamped with her life philosophy “Never Ever Give Up”. 1. What can we learn about Jessie from paragraph 2? A. She was a brain cancer patient. B. She was a young athlete. C. She refused treatment. D. She was cured in California. 2. What inspired Jessie’s creation of Joy Jars? A. Her goal to save her life. B. Her goal to raise funds for her treatment. C. Her wish to get rid of her pain. D. Her wish to bring joy to fellow patients. 3. Which of the following can best describe Jessie? A. Outgoing and responsible. B. Sympathetic and optimistic. C. Confident and graceful. D. Unique and determined. 4. What does the article want to tell us? A. It is never too late to mend. B. Joy and sorrow are next-door neighbors. C. Faith can move mountains. D. When life gives you lemons, make lemonade. (25-26高三上·重庆万州·开学考试)I had studied civil engineering at college. Growing up in an impoverished rural area, I was fascinated by architecture in cities, and I hoped to design buildings myself someday.However, as my degree progressed, I became interested in research and wanted to continue my academic journey. I wasn’t sure what to study at first. Then the flood came, and it all became clear. After spending much of my summer volunteering in affected communities, I decided to focus my career on natural disasters, exploring the various factors behind them, as well as their impacts on society. As a first step, I applied for a master’s program in development studies — a multidisciplinary(多门学科的) program that included coursework in sustainable development, geography, and economics, as well as hands-on community projects. This decision shocked my friends and family. Relatives kept asking my parents why I was leaving engineering to study social sciences. They warned my parents, who only have a primary education, that this path might make it hard for me, their only son, to find a job.However, I was determined and went ahead with what I thought was right for me. The program, which exposed me to projects that helped communities plan for climate change and other troubles, convinced me I was on the right path. I was excited to start the program and be surrounded by some of the brightest minds in the country. Sharing what I’ve learned with people in my community has also given me satisfaction. There have been challenges along the way, but the opportunity to dig into an issue I care so passionately about and try to help people makes it all worthwhile. Above all, my journey has taught me that it’s OK to follow my heart, even when the path seems unconventional. 5. What motivated the author to shift his academic focus? A. A natural disaster experience. B. Exposure to urban architecture. C. A great deal of pressure from his family. D. Financial difficulties in his hometown. 6.

Referred to as matrix planting, this approach aims for nature to do a lot more of the heavy lifting in the garden, and even some of the designing. Eschewing fertilizers (化肥) and power tools, it’s based on an elegantly simple principle: to garden more like nature does. The concept was born when German city planners sought to plant large areas of parkland after World War II in a reproducible way that would need minimal maintenance. Planners created planting mixes that could be used modularly (模块化). In a matrix garden, plants with similar cultural needs are grouped so that they will grow together above and below ground, forming a cooperative ecosystem that conserves water and discourages weeds. Dutch plantsman and designer Piet Oudolf’s gardens popularized this style, adding artistic flavors to the planting mixes while playing with color and form, including four-season interest and serving the needs of wildlife. Beautiful year-round, they invite you to enjoy the smallest detail, from the sound of grasses in the gentle wind to the sculpture of odd-looking seed heads. It takes a lot of thought to look this natural. While matrix gardens appear wild, they are carefully planned, with cultural needs the first consideration. Led by the concept of “right plant, right place,” they match plants that enjoy the same soil, sun and weather conditions, and arrange them according to their patterns of growth. The benefits are substantial for both gardener and planet. With human inputs dramatically reduced, the garden’s ecology can develop well. Established matrix gardens should not need the life support we give most gardens: fertilizer, dividing, regular watering. Compared to traditional garden plots, they increase carbon absorption, reduce storm water runoff and boost habitat and biodiversity significantly. 28. What does the underlined word “Eschewing” in the first paragraph mean? A. Running out of. B. Keeping away from. C. Putting up with. D. Taking advantage of. 29. Why was the idea of matrix planting introduced? A. To control weeds in large gardens. B. To bring in foreign species of plants. C. To conserve soil and water resources. D. To develop low-maintenance parkland. 30. Which of the following best describes Piet Oudolf’s gardens? A. Traditional. B. Odd-looking. C. Tasteful. D. Well-protected. 31. Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text? A. The future of gardening is WILD B. Nature treats all lives as EQUALS C. Matrix gardens need more CARE D. Old garden plots work WONDERS 【名校模拟】 (25-26高三上·黑龙江·开学考试)Walk around most large cities in Europe and the United States, and you’d be thinking that we’re living in a new world of affordable and effortless mobility for all, with the smartphone in your pocket an entrance to shared bikes and electric cars. But if you’re disabled or elderly, living in a low-income area or without a smartphone or credit card, using these shared mobility services becomes a lot more difficult. Shared mobility could be a key part of a more sustainable transportation system. But to be most effective, it needs to include everyone. Right now, various initiatives and projects are seeking creative solutions to reach underserved communities. The E-Bike Library model was born in such context. E-bike libraries address a number of barriers: The bikes are free, and the libraries are hosted by places that are already an important part of the community. In addition to maintaining the bikes, the programs also organize training, group rides and educational events to familiarize people with cycling culture and safety. For Mobitwin, a social transportation service for elderly people and those with reduced mobility, personal interactions and affordability are important. Founded by the Belgian mobility nongovernmental organization Mpact, Mobitwin lets elderly people request a vehicle ride from a volunteer for a minimal fee. The program, which has been running since the 1980s, currently serves around 40,000 people in Belgium. Being able to get out and about is a crucial part of participating in society, and reduced mobility in old age goes hand in hand with social isolation and loneliness, according to Esen Köse, project manager at Mpact. “We want to make sure that people who are often not in the social cycle of going to work or school, who are actually often left out, still have an option to get out of the house and do the simple daily things, like going to the grocery store or seeing families,” he says, “our big goal is to engage as many people as possible in shared mobility, so supporting service is essential to facilitate this shift.” 1. What is the problem with the current shared mobility according to the text? A. Disturbance to traffic order. B. Overdependence on smart devices. C. Limited involvement of certain groups. D. Heavy financial burden for vehicle users. 2. How does the E-Bike Library help underserved groups? A. By upgrading cycling facilities. B. By publishing cycling-related books. C. By building a cycling-support community. D. By providing safety guarantees for cycling. 3. Which of the following words best describes Mobitwin? A. Experimental. B. Commercial. C. Accessible. D. Digital. 4. What can you infer from Esen Köse’s words? A. Social mobility depends on financial aid. B. Shared mobility promotes green travel shift. C. Public mobility is mainly based on device updates. D. Mobility is a key to the elderly’s emotional wellness. (25-26高三上·贵州贵阳·阶段练习)I initially became a Spanish teacher not out of passion but necessity — like many in their twenties, stuck in a quarter-life crisis, trying to find a way to make some extra money. That’s how one morning I found myself downloading a language app, creating a profile, and recording an introduction video hoping to convince potential students to book a trial lesson with me. Despite watching tutorials (教程) online for only seven hours, I pretended to be a qualified teacher. But on the other side, my first student, Robert — an American living in Medellin, Spain — changed everything. He wasn’t trying to master grammar or speak perfect textbook Spanish. He wanted to improve his fluency and learn the local paisa slang, so he could understand the people in the street stands, the bakery guy, the lady selling coffee. I remember our first class vividly. I explained the difference between a rolo, a caleno, or a samario, which led to discussions about regional accents, word meanings, and how everything changes depending on who says it and how. Robert also shared his life in Ohio, experiences in Latin America, and his relationship with food and people. Our Spanish classes turned into a sort of cultural lab. In that back-and-forth of ideas, we unknowingly started building bridges. It hit me that teaching a language goes far beyond teaching grammar. It’s about opening the door to a new world and inviting someone else to walk through it. I now believe language teaching is a powerful tool for building bridges across cultures and for revealing stereotypes that divide us. In a globalized world, language teachers are perhaps — agents of change and social transformation, sharing culture through lived experiences. 5. Why did the author download a language app? A. To book a trial lesson. B. To watch tutorials online. C. To learn a new language. D. To earn additional income. 6. What is Robert’s goal in taking the author’s lesson? A. Speaking perfect textbook Spanish. B. Making friends living in Medellin. C. Understanding the locals accurately. D. Acquiring Spanish grammar rules. 7. Which of the following best describes the author’s first class with Robert? A. Organized and vivid. B. Interactive and practical. C. Serious and formal. D. Academic and inspiring. 8. What is a language teacher supposed to do at present? A. Strengthen stereotypes. B. Evaluate unknown ideas. C. Foster cultural exchanges. D. Learn from experiences. 隐含推断题3篇 【名师点津】 一、解题妙招 隐含推断题要求考生根据文中的信息进行合理的、适度的逻辑推断,推断出作者没有直接说明的内容,可能会发生的事情,理解作者的言外之意等。考生只有正确把握文章的内在关系,理解关键词句的真正含义,才可能作出准确的推断。此类题目的题干主要包括六个动词:infer(推断),indicate(象征,暗示),imply(暗示),suggest(暗示),conclude(得出结论)和 assume(假定,设想)。 二、思维导图 【高考真题】 (2025全国I卷) While safety improvements might have been made to our streets in recent years, transport studies also show declines in pedestrian (行人) mobility, especially among young children. Many parents say there’s too much traffic on the roads for their children to walk safely to school, so they pack them into the car instead. Dutch authors Thalia Verkade and Marco te Brömmelstroet are bothered by facts like these. In their new book Movement: How to Take Back Our Streets and Transform Our Lives, they call for a rethink of our streets and the role they play in our lives. Life on city streets started to change decades ago. Whole neighbourhoods were destroyed to make way for new road networks and kids had to play elsewhere. Some communities fought back. Most famously, a Canadian journalist who had moved her family to Manhattan in the early 1950s led a campaign to stop the destruction of her local park. Describing her alarm at its proposed replacement with an expressway, Jane Jacobs called on her mayor (市长) to champion “New York as a decent place to live, and not just rush through.” Similar campaigns occurred in Australia in the late 1960s and 1970s as well. Although these campaigns were widespread, the reality is that the majority of the western cities were completely redesigned around the needs of the motor car. The number of cars on roads has been increasing rapidly. In Australia we now have over twenty million cars for just over twenty-six million people, among the highest rate of car ownership in the world. We invest a lot in roads that help us rush through, but we fail to account for the true costs. Do we really recognise what it costs us as a society when children can’t move safely around our communities? The authors of Movement have it right: it’s time to think differently about that street outside your front door. 28. What phenomenon does the author point out in paragraph 1? A. Cars often get stuck on the road. B. Traffic accidents occur frequently. C. People walk less and drive more. D. Pedestrians fail to follow the rules. 29. What were the Canadian journalist and other campaigners trying to do? A. Keep their cities livable. B. Promote cultural diversity. C. Help the needy families. D. Make expressways accessible. 30. What can be inferred about the campaigns in Australia in the late 1960s and 1970s? A. They boosted the sales of cars. B. They turned out largely ineffective. C. They won government support. D. They advocated building new parks. 31. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Why the Rush? B. What’s Next? C. Where to Stay? D. Who to Blame? 【名校模拟】 (25-26高三上·湖北武汉·阶段练习)To keep a Hula-Hoop aloft (悬浮) with robots, it helps to be in shape — literally. Experiments with hoop-slinging robots have revealed how these rings stay up despite the pull of gravity. The shape of the robot’s body is a crucial factor, researchers report in the Jan. 7 Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. The shape needs to have “hips” — a slope (斜面) that provides upward force to balance gravity. And a “waist” arch — like an hourglass (沙漏) — keeps the hoop from moving up or down and sliding off. Inspired by performers near his home in Greenwich Village, applied mathematician Leif Ristroph of New York University began considering the physics of Hula-Hoops. Previous studies, he and his coworkers realized, hadn’t explained how the hoop stays aloft. So Ristroph and his coworkers gave it a try. In experiments, a circling cylindrical robot couldn’t keep a hoop from sliding down. It was missing the essential upward force, generated when a hoop swings over a sloped shape. But a cone-shaped robot, with a slope but no waistlike curve, also failed. If the hoop began toward the top of the cone, the upward force overpowered gravity, and the hoop would move up. If the hoop began toward the bottom, the upward force wasn’t enough to keep it aloft, and it moved down. But an hourglass-shaped robot kept a hoop stably aloft. People should be able to hula-hoop regardless of the body shape, by adapting their gyrations (旋转) based on position changes of the hoop. Indeed, the researchers were able to get a cone-shaped robot to hula-hoop by adjusting the rate of gyration depending on how high the hoop slid. A correct launch was also essential in the experiments. If the hoop started off too slow, the attempt would fail. In successful sessions, the hoop lined up with the gyrating body, so that the hoop and the body always shifted in the same direction. “That’s also the best way to launch a hoop,” Ristroph says. “We were surprised that an activity as popular, fun, and healthy as hula hooping wasn’t understood even at a basic physics level,” says Ristroph. “As we made progress on the research, we realized that the math and physics involved are very subtle.” 1. Which body shape is ideal for Hula-Hooping according to the experiment? A. Cone-shaped. B. Hourglass-shaped. C. Round. D. Cylindrical. 2. What is the message implied in the fourth paragraph? A. Hula-hooping can help shape people’s body gradually. B. Robots are flexible in learning human body movements. C. Anyone can do hula-hooping by adjusting their movements. D. A perfect body shape is required to be a good hula-hoop player. 3. What was essential for a successful Hula-Hoop launch in the experiments? A. Starting with the right shape. B. Opposite movement of the hoop and the body. C. Using a hoop of the proper size. D. Same directional shifts of the hoop and the body. 4. Which can be used as a proper title for the text? A. Scientists Identify the Perfect Hula Hoop “Body Type” B. Hula-hooping Inspires NYU Mathematicians C. How Do Hula Hoops Benefit Our Health? D. What Do Hula Hoops Do for Your Body? (25-26高三上·河北·阶段练习)British gardens frequently fight with heavy rainfall and sudden cold spells, which quickly turn the ground muddy and slippery. Maintaining a green and safe lawn (草坪) becomes a tough task — wet weather often leaves lawns bare, and entire gardens end up unused for months. Traditional lawns require constant care to stay healthy, yet poor weather easily makes them unplayable, leaving outdoor spaces abandoned from late autumn through early spring. Modern surface options offer effective fixes. Artificial grass has advanced greatly: New varieties use soft, multitonal yarns (纱线) to copy real grass, creating a natural look that fits well with garden settings. These high-quality artificial lawns have UV-resistant fibres and strong year-round durability, keeping their appearance even after heavy use or sun exposure. Unlike natural grass, which goes fragile in winter, they stay usable all year, perfect for families with kids or pets. Permeable paving is another solid choice for walkways and courtyards, as it lets water drain through to avoid puddles, though it lacks the warm, soft feel of grass. Proper installation is key, especially for drainage. A compacted (压实的) crushed stone sub-base is a must for the artificial lawn — it prevents water from pooling underneath — while using the wrong sand or skimping on sub-base depth leads to wet areas. Soil compaction also worsens wet problems, cutting air and water flow by up to 30% versus well-aerated ground. Environmentally, artificial lawns reduce water use by around 55% yearly, but traditional lawns need hundreds of litres weekly in dry spells. Pairing modern surfaces with rainwater harvesting systems and native planting schemes boosts sustainability, making gardens both practical and eco-friendly. Zoning gardens — using artificial lawns for play areas, permeable paving for dining spots, and raised beds for planting — plus adding small wildflower patches, creates functional year-round spaces. Demand for these solutions is rising in northern UK regions like Greater Manchester and Yorkshire, helping homeowners overcome waterlogging (水涝) and fully reclaim their outdoor areas. 5. Why do traditional British gardens stay unused in winter? A. The gardens lack proper care. B. The lawns need seasonal rest. C. Bad weather ruins the lawns. D. Indoor activities are more suitable. 6. What is a feature of the new artificial grass? A. It is the same as real grass. B. It fades in strong sunlight. C. It reduces heavy rainfall. D. It can be used all year round. 7. What can an improper sub-base for an artificial lawn bring about? A. Increasing air flow. B. Waterlogged ground. C. A crowded garden. D. The lawn’s expansion. 8. What does the text imply about sustainable garden design? A. It mainly uses fully recyclable products. B. It requires much water for native plants. C. It abandons traditional lawns completely. D. It combines modern features and eco-elements. 找共同点题3篇 【名师点津】 一、解题小妙招 1.结构法:如果属于“总分总”结构,多从“总处”找依据; 2.排除法:可以运用排除法,只要一项不合要求就应该排除; 3.关键词法:依据题干圈划相应的关键词语,据此知道答案。 二、零失误小妙招 1.做题留痕,依据题干在原文圈划答题区间; 2.划掉错项,去伪存真,快速作答提升效率; 3.错题反思,专用笔记本记录错因举一反三。 【高考真题】 (2024新课标II卷) Choice of Walks for Beginner and Experienced Walkers The Carlow Autumn Walking Festival is a great opportunity for the beginner, experienced or advanced walker to enjoy the challenges of Carlow’s mountain hikes or the peace of its woodland walks.

Probably fish and chips, or a Sunday dinner of meat and two vegetables. But is British food really so uninteresting? Even though Britain has a reputation for less-than-impressive cuisine, it is producing more top class chefs who appear frequently on our television screens and whose recipe books frequently top the best seller lists. It’s thanks to these TV chefs rather than any advertising campaign that Britons are turning away from meat-and-two-veg and ready-made meals and becoming more adventurous in their cooking habits. It is recently reported that the number of those sticking to a traditional diet is slowly declining and around half of Britain’s consumers would like to change or improve their cooking in some way. There has been a rise in the number of students applying for food courses at UK universities and colleges. It seems that TV programmes have helped change what people think about cooking. According to a new study from market analysts, 1 in 5 Britons say that watching cookery programmes on TV has encouraged them to try different food. Almost one third say they now use a wider variety of ingredients (配料) than they used to, and just under 1 in 4 say they now buy better quality ingredients than before. One in four adults say that TV chefs have made them much more confident about expanding their cookery knowledge and skills, and young people are also getting more interested in cooking. The UK’s obsession (痴迷) with food is reflected through television scheduling. Cookery shows and documentaries about food are broadcast more often than before. With an increasing number of male chefs on TV, it’s no longer “uncool” for boys to like cooking. 28. What do people usually think of British food? A. It is simple and plain. B. It is rich in nutrition. C. It lacks authentic tastes. D. It deserves a high reputation. 29. Which best describes cookery programme on British TV? A. Authoritative. B. Creative. C. Profitable. D. Influential. 30. Which is the percentage of the people using more diverse ingredients now? A. 20%. B. 24%. C. 25%. D. 33%. 31. What might the author continue talking about? A. The art of cooking in other countries. B. Male chefs on TV programmes. C. Table manners in the UK. D. Studies of big eaters. 【名校模拟】 (2025·陕西安康·模拟预测)At most art museums, there is a fundamental and well-established rule for viewers: “Look but don’t touch.” This rule is in place to protect the precious artworks from potential damage. However, the Sainsbury Centre in the United Kingdom is a refreshing exception. The Sainsbury Centre recently initiated a groundbreaking new program. This program breaks the traditional barriers between the audience and the art, inviting museumgoers to have an up-close and personal encounter with the exhibits. A typical example is the invitation to hug Henry Moore’s 1932 sculpture Mother and Child. Visitors to the centre listen to an audio tour recorded by the museum’s director, Jago Cooper. His voice guides them not just to view Moore’s sculpture but to appreciate it! They’re asked to make eye contact with the mother figure, close their eyes, and think of their earliest memory of being held as a child. “That feeling within you, that feeling of protection, is what Henry was trying to create with this work,” the audio explains. The exercise is designed to help visitors realize that art is an emotional state of mind, an idea that Moore himself seemed to agree with. Cooper says there’s video footage (镜头) of the artist telling one of the centre’s founders that anyone who thinks they understand his art without touching it doesn’t know anything about sculpture. Usually museums discourage visitors from handling art because oils and dirt on people’s hands can damage the works. People could also accidentally scratch (划伤) or break the art. Cooper acknowledges that allowing people to physically interact with art must be done on a case-by-case basis. “Lots of works of art aren’t designed to be touched,” he says. In those instances, they invite visitors to engage with art in other non-traditional ways. That includes dancing with 1,200-year-old Tang Dynasty figures and lying in a hanging bed while telling a secret to a 1948 painting by Alberto Giacometti. 1. What is special about the Sainsbury Centre? A. It allows visitors to merely view the works. B. It tolerates damage to artworks. C. It encourages a touch on some exhibits. D. It offers free audio tours to visitors. 2. What does the practice with Moore’s sculpture aim to do? A. Get across the artist’s idea. B. Draw visitors’ attention. C. Appeal to viewers’ tastes. D. Build up the artist’s reputation. 3. Why are Tang Dynasty figures mentioned in the last paragraph? A. To illustrate the artworks’ long history. B. To indicate the richness of the centre’s collection. C. To contrast diverse methods of art-interaction. D. To present a non-traditional art-interaction way. 4. What might the author continue talking about? A. Clarification of physical art interaction. B. Advanced methods for art preservation. C. Examples of touch-friendly artworks. D. More innovative ways to engage with art (24-25高三下·河南·阶段练习)Wildfires fueled by extreme winds have swept across the Pacific Palisades area in Los Angeles County, destroying countless structures and forcing the evacuation (撤离) of more than 30,000 people. As of 9:30 pm ET, more than 2,900 acres have burned, fire officials said. The powerful Santa Ana winds are challenging firefighting efforts. The evacuation order includes more than 10,000 homes and thousands of businesses. Los Angeles County Fire Chief Anthony Marrone said on Tuesday afternoon during a news conference, “We are not out of danger,” warning that the most significant threat will be between 10 pm and 5am PT when the Santa Ana winds will be at their fiercest. Marrone urged people to be ready to evacuate at a moment’s notice overnight. Los Angeles City Councilwoman Traci Park, who represents the area, described the situation as “terrifying”. She urged people to “be packed and ready to go” if people are told to evacuate. Already, tens of thousands of people have been ordered to leave their homes and businesses as the fires are spreading violently into neighborhoods. Park says “it may take a couple of days” to get the situation under control and “it may be some time before people can return to their homes.” As of 9:30 pm EST Tuesday, about 25,000 homes and businesses had their power cut off as crews battle the Palisades Fire. California Gov. Gavin Newsom declared a state of emergency as the fire continued to burn through Los Angeles County and more residents have been ordered to evacuate in the fire zones north and west of Los Angeles. Newsom toured some of the neighborhoods consumed by wildfires. He applauded the efforts of crews to pre-position firefighters, aircraft and other equipment ahead of the predicted firestorm. While this news conference focused on the situation in Los Angeles County, forecasters warned of a potential worsening problem in Orange, San Bernardino and Riverside Counties, just to the south and east. 5. What is the main difficulty faced by firefighters? A. Strong winds spreading fires. B. Limited evacuation routes. C. Vast structural remains removal. D. Lack of public cooperation. 6. What is the primary concern expressed by Marrone and Park? A. Evacuation efforts are being delayed. B. The danger period may extend further. C. The fire is changing direction rapidly. D. Firefighter resources are insufficient. 7. Which word best describes Newsom when he saw crews’ preparations? A. Discouraged. B. Appreciative. C. Dismissive. D. Unexpected. 8. What might the author continue talking about regarding the wildfires? A. Firefighting equipment details. B. Evacuation success stories. C. Impact on nearby counties. D. Residents’ personal experiences. 文章出处题3篇 【名师点津】 一、解题小妙招 “推断文章出处”类试题应从文章的内容或结构入手来判断其出处: 研究报告类文章(a research paper):此类文章重点介绍科技领域最新研究成果:新发现、新思想、新发明。第一段概括介绍,然后分段陈述。文章结构严谨,语言规范,句式复杂。 图书评论类文章(a book review):书评、影评类文章涉及到作者介绍,内容梗概、人物性格评论,写作特色以及个人好恶等内容。 广告英语类文章(an advertisement):现代生活中广告无处不在,英语阅读理解也是如此。有时会考查微型海报、通知、启示、时刻表、图表等。 科普杂志类文章(a science magazine):此类文章内容广泛,涉及到日常生活习惯、健康饮食、太空与海洋、创造与发明、计算机发展、人类未来、动物世界等。其重点是普及科学知识,提高科学素养。 教材课本类文章(a geography textbook):此类文章内容比较正式,语言规范,往往涉及到学科术语、专业性词汇、概念、理论等。 课件展示类文章(a class presentation):此类文章往往紧扣主题,口语性强、语言活泼,形式新颖,伴随有图片、图表、文字介绍等信息。 网络网页类文章(an Internet page):此类文章往往会提供超级链接标志,如For more information, please click here. 二、零失误小妙招 1.做题留痕,依据题干在原文圈划答题区间; 2.划掉错项,去伪存真,快速作答提升效率; 3.错题反思,专用笔记本记录错因举一反三。 【高考真题】 (2023新课标II卷)Reading Art: Art for Book Lovers is a celebration of an everyday object — the book, represented here in almost three hundred artworks from museums around the world. The image of the reader appears throughout history, in art made long before books as we now know them came into being. In artists’ representations of books and reading, we see moments of shared humanity that go beyond culture and time. In this “book of books,” artworks are selected and arranged in a way that emphasizes these connections between different eras and cultures. We see scenes of children learning to read at home or at school, with the book as a focus for relations between the generations. Adults are portrayed (描绘) alone in many settings and poses —absorbed in a volume, deep in thought or lost in a moment of leisure. These scenes may have been painted hundreds of years ago, but they record moments we can all relate to. Books themselves may be used symbolically in paintings to demonstrate the intellect (才智), wealth or faith of the subject. Before the wide use of the printing press, books were treasured objects and could be works of art in their own right. More recently, as books have become inexpensive or even throwaway, artists have used them as the raw material for artworks — transforming covers, pages or even complete volumes into paintings and sculptures. Continued developments in communication technologies were once believed to make the printed page outdated. From a 21st-century point of view, the printed book is certainly ancient, but it remains as interactive as any battery-powered e-reader. To serve its function, a book must be activated by a user: the cover opened, the pages parted, the contents reviewed, perhaps notes written down or words underlined. And in contrast to our increasingly networked lives where the information we consume is monitored and tracked, a printed book still offers the chance of a wholly private, “off-line” activity. 8. Where is the text most probably taken from? A. An introduction to a book. B. An essay on the art of writing. C. A guidebook to a museum. D. A review of modern paintings. 9. What are the selected artworks about? A. Wealth and intellect. B. Home and school. C. Books and reading. D. Work and leisure. 10. What do the underlined words “relate to” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Understand. B. Paint. C. Seize. D. Transform. 11. What does the author want to say by mentioning the e-reader? A. The printed book is not totally out of date. B. Technology has changed the way we read. C. Our lives in the 21st century are networked. D. People now rarely have the patience to read.

Ultra-processed foods (UPF) have become increasingly popular and range from chips to microwave meals and even bread. Even just a casual glance at supermarket shelves reveals a collection of UPF offerings in delicate and attractive packaging. Besides their affordability, UPF not only offer time-saving convenience, but also momentary satisfaction filled with fat, sugar, salt and additives (添加剂). After all, who can resist enjoying a tasty snack when lost in a football game or an exciting new TV series? Although much is discussed about the direct negative impact of these products on our health, including obesity, heart diseases and diabetes, little has been said about the impacts of UPF on the environment. The most serious environmental impacts of UPF-rich diets mainly come from the post-farm stages, especially from the final product creation and packaging processes. One specific additive that has the most environmental impact is palm oil. Palm oil is responsible for deforestation of some of the world’s big forests, which have diverse animals and plants. It is one of the world’s most consumed vegetable oils that can be found in half of our food. The massive waste generated by over-packaged UPF is another factor to consider. Their plastic packaging doesn’t degrade in landfills or in nature and has a dramatic impact on soil health and life in the sea. One recent study published in Nature Sustainability demonstrates that UPF processing and packaging stages have the greatest environmental impacts of the whole system and are a major source of environmental waste worldwide. The environmental impact of ultra-processed foods cannot be ignored any longer. While producers must take action, it is our growing awareness of what we buy and how it is produced that drives real change. By choosing wisely — whether by rejecting heavily processed options or supporting sustainable brands — we exercise the power to shape a better food system, a responsibility we must embrace. 1. What can be learned about UPF from the first paragraph? A. They are primarily consumed during casual leisure activities. B. They are carefully produced to be environmentally friendly. C. They are filled with various kinds of healthy added nutrients. D. They are favored by many for their fancy packages and flavors. 2. Why was palm oil  introduced in the text? A. To compare it with some other vegetable oils. B. To explain UPF’s harmful environmental effects. C. To show its relationship with animals and plants. D. To discuss factors of UPF’s packaging-related pollution. 3. What does the author think of the role we play in fighting UPF? A. Tiny. B. Essential. C. Replaceable. D. Limited. 4. Where is the text probably taken from? A. An environmental magazine. B. A public health journal. C. A food industry report. D. An advertisement brochure. (25-26高三上·陕西咸阳·阶段练习)J. D. Salinger’s The Catcher in the Rye remains a classic novel of adolescent rebellion and isolation, connecting with generations since its 1951 publication. Through the voice of Holden Caulfield, a teenager kicked out of prep school, Salinger captures the raw emotions of youth — anger, confusion, and a desperate search for realness in a world he dismisses as “phoney”. The novel’s lasting power lies not in grand adventure but in its intimate portrayal of Holden’s internal struggles, which reflect universal teenage experience. Holden’s journey through New York City acts as a psychological exploration. He criticizes the hypocrisy (虚伪) of the adult world, mocks social expectations, and fantasizes about escaping to a simpler life “away from all the nonsense.” Yet beneath his cynical (愤世嫉俗的) appearance lies vulnerability. Symbolism deepens the novel’s exploration of innocence and loss. The repeated image of the “catcher in the rye” — Holden’s fantasy of saving children from falling off a cliff — symbolizes his wish to preserve childhood innocence. His repeated visits to the Museum of Natural History, where displays stay unchanged, reveal his longing for stability. The ducks in Central Park’s Lake, which mysteriously disappear each winter, mirror Holden’s anxiety about life’s uncertainties. Even the novel’s preface as “authentic adolescent voice”, serves as a rebellion against social norms, making Holden’s voice feel startlingly real. Though set in the 1950s, The Catcher in the Rye continues to speak to modern teenagers. In an era dominated by social media and artificial identities, Holden’s hatred of hypocrisy feels strikingly relatable. Unlike today’s digital interactions, Holden’s handwritten letters and face-to-face encounters in the novel emphasize the original pure nature of human connection. Salinger’s refusal to romanticize adolescence — offering no easy answers to pain — challenges readers to confront their own struggles with growing up. The novel endures not as a relic but as a timeless conversation about the confusion and struggles of youth. 5. Where is the text most probably taken from? A. A news report about modern education. B. A literary journal on figures of speech. C. A publisher’s preface for a special edition. D. A psychological study on teenage rebellion. 6. What does the underlined word “phoney” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Fake. B. Dangerous. C. Traditional. D. Complicated. 7. According to paragraph 3, what does the image “catcher in the rye” represent? A. Holden’s admiration for rural life. B. Holden’s desire to escape society. C. Holden’s criticism of educational systems. D. Holden’s wish to protect childhood purity. 8. What does Salinger agree with according to the last paragraph? A. Adolescence deserves romanticizing. B. Genuine human connections are vital. C. Social media fosters sincere connections. D. Teenagers require straightforward life solutions. 学科网(北京)股份有限公司 $ 专题11 阅读理解一轮复习难点突破2(名师点津+名校模拟)解析版 目录 人物性格题3篇 P2 【名师点津】 P2 【高考真题】 P2 【名校模拟】 P3 事件评价题3篇 P7 【名师点津】 P7 【高考真题】 P7 【名校模拟】 P8 隐含推断题3篇 P12 【名师点津】 P12 【高考真题】 P12 【名校模拟】 P14 找共同点题3篇 P17 【名师点津】 P17 【高考真题】 P17 【名校模拟】 P20 预测下段题3篇 P23 【名师点津】 P23 【高考真题】 P23 【名校模拟】 P24 文章出处题3篇 P28 【名师点津】 P28 【高考真题】 P28 【名校模拟】 P31 人物性格题3篇 【名师点津】 人物“人物性格题”的最优处理方法: 第一、先整体把握人物经历、产品性能及文章主题,多为弘扬“真善美”主旋律主题。 第二、结合题干锁定原文答题区间,圈划关键词句,尤其是动词和形容词,注意提炼态度倾向。 第三、比对选项形容词的褒贬性,多为并列型,一对一错,采用“排除法”,去伪存真确定答案。 【高考真题】 (2024新课标I卷) “I am not crazy,” says Dr. William Farber, shortly after performing acupuncture (针灸) on a rabbit. “I am ahead of my time.” If he seems a little defensive, it might be because even some of his coworkers occasionally laugh at his unusual methods. But Farber is certain he’ll have the last laugh. He’s one of a small but growing number of American veterinarians (兽医) now practicing “holistic” medicine – combining traditional Western treatments with acupuncture, chiropractic (按摩疗法) and herbal medicine. Farber, a graduate of Colorado State University, started out as a more conventional veterinarian. He became interested in alternative treatments 20 years ago when he suffered from terrible back pain. He tried muscle-relaxing drugs but found little relief. Then he tried acupuncture, an ancient Chinese practice, and was amazed that he improved after two or three treatments. What worked on a veterinarian seemed likely to work on his patients. So, after studying the techniques for a couple of years, he began offering them to pets. Leigh Tindale’s dog Charlie had a serious heart condition. After Charlie had a heart attack, Tindale says, she was prepared to put him to sleep, but Farber’s treatments eased her dog’s suffering so much that she was able to keep him alive for an additional five months. And Priscilla Dewing reports that her horse, Nappy, “moves more easily and rides more comfortably” after a chiropractic adjustment. Farber is certain that the holistic approach will grow more popular with time, and if the past is any indication, he may be right: Since 1982, membership in the American Holistic Veterinary Medical Association has grown from 30 to over 700. “Sometimes it surprises me that it works so well,” he says. “I will do anything to help an animal. That’s my job.” 24. What do some of Farber’s coworkers think of him? A. He’s odd. B. He’s strict. C. He’s brave. D. He’s rude. 25. Why did Farber decide to try acupuncture on pets? A. He was trained in it at university. B. He was inspired by another veterinarian. C. He benefited from it as a patient. D. He wanted to save money for pet owners. 26. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A. Steps of a chiropractic treatment. B. The complexity of veterinarians’ work. C. Examples of rare animal diseases. D. The effectiveness of holistic medicine. 27. Why does the author mention the American Holistic Veterinary Medical Association? A. To prove Farber’s point. B. To emphasize its importance. C. To praise veterinarians. D. To advocate animal protection. 【答案】24. A 25. C 26. D 27. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是记叙文。文章讲述兽医威廉·法伯(William Farber)博士在从针灸中受益后,将综合医疗应用于动物,并取得了初步成效。 24.细节理解题。根据第一段的“If he seems a little defensive, it might be because even some of his coworkers occasionally laugh at his unusual methods.( 如果他看起来有点自卫,那可能是因为他的一些同事偶尔会嘲笑他不寻常的方法。) ”可知,Farber的同事们有时会嘲笑他不寻常的方法,他们认为他很奇怪。故选A。 25.细节理解题。根据第二段的“Then he tried acupuncture, an ancient Chinese practice, and was amazed that he improved after two or three treatments. What worked on a veterinarian seemed likely to work on his patients. So, after studying the techniques for a couple of years, he began offering them to pets.(然后,他尝试了针灸,这是一种古老的中国疗法,并惊讶地发现,经过两三次治疗,他的病情有所好转。对兽医有效的方法似乎对他的病人也有效。因此,在研究了这些技术几年后,他开始把它们提供给宠物。)”可知,Farber作为患者从针灸中受益,这促使他决定尝试在宠物上使用针灸。故选C。 26.主旨大意题。根据第三段内容“Leigh Tindale’s dog Charlie had a serious heart condition. After Charlie had a heart attack, Tindale says, she was prepared to put him to sleep, but Farber’s treatments eased her dog’s suffering so much that she was able to keep him alive for an additional five months. And Priscilla Dewing reports that her horse, Nappy, “moves more easily and rides more comfortably” after a chiropractic adjustment.(利·廷代尔的狗查理患有严重的心脏病。廷代尔说,查理心脏病发作后,她准备让他进入睡眠状态,但法伯的治疗大大减轻了她的狗的痛苦,她能够让它多活五个月。普里西拉·杜因(Priscilla Dewing)报告说,她的马纳皮(Nappy)经过脊椎按摩调整后,“行动更容易,乘车更舒服”。) ”可知,本段主要讲述了两个例子,一个是Farber通过整体医学方法帮助了患有严重心脏病的狗Charlie,另一个是马Nappy在接受脊椎按摩治疗后移动和骑行更为舒适。这些例子都是为了说明整体医学的有效性。故选D。 27.推理判断题。根据最后一段的内容“Farber is certain that the holistic approach will grow more popular with time, and if the past is any indication, he may be right: Since 1982, membership in the American Holistic Veterinary Medical Association has grown from 30 to over 700. ( 法伯确信,随着时间的推移,综合疗法会越来越受欢迎,如果过去有任何迹象的话,他可能是对的:自1982年以来,美国综合兽医协会的会员已经从30个增加到700多个。)”可知,法伯认为综合疗法会越来越受欢迎,随后作者列举了美国综合兽医协会的会员已经从30个增加到700多个的例子,因此推断美国整体兽医协会是为证明法伯的观点。故选A。 【名校模拟】 (25-26高三上·海南省直辖县级单位·阶段练习)Life can feel terribly unfair. However, for some people, when life hands them the worst lemon, they try their best to make a lemonade. Jessie Joy Rees is just such a person. The blonde-haired, California kid with the big personality as fun as a day at the beach became the voice of courage for kids with cancer. Athletic and energetic, Jessie had her whole world in front of her until she was diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor(肿瘤)in 2011. Doctors estimated that she had just 1% chance of survival and less than a year to live. With no other treatment options, her family entered Jessie for a clinical trial. For weeks she underwent 30 rounds of radiotherapy. Amazingly, the pain and uncertainty never lessened her shine, and Jessie always remained positive throughout it all. Three weeks into her treatment, Jessie asked a mature question for such a young girl. Looking out at the other children who were also going through cancer treatment, she asked her parents: “How can we help them?” “She was determined to make other cancer kids happy,” her father Erik tenderly remembers. “How could we not help?” Though 12-year-old Jessie had a slight chance of beating cancer, she resolved to make the most of her time. The morning after her diagnosis, Jessie was at the kitchen table packing bags of toys for other cancer patients. The packages became hospital-safe plastic jars stuffed with toys, crafts and activities to surprise children while they are in the hospital for treatment. Joy Jars, named after Jessie’s middle name, contain a little bit of fun during ordinary days, but mostly they contain a little bit of Jessie’s positive attitude that fills the room every time one is opened. Jessie Joy Rees, a special soul who could radiate so much good in so short a time, passed away less than a year from her diagnosis. But her parents keep the joy alive. More than 400,000 Joy Jars have been delivered to children undergoing cancer treatment in all 50 states and over 50 countries, with each stamped with her life philosophy “Never Ever Give Up”. 1. What can we learn about Jessie from paragraph 2? A. She was a brain cancer patient. B. She was a young athlete. C. She refused treatment. D. She was cured in California. 2. What inspired Jessie’s creation of Joy Jars? A. Her goal to save her life. B. Her goal to raise funds for her treatment. C. Her wish to get rid of her pain. D. Her wish to bring joy to fellow patients. 3. Which of the following can best describe Jessie? A. Outgoing and responsible. B. Sympathetic and optimistic. C. Confident and graceful. D.

The morning after her diagnosis, Jessie was at the kitchen table packing bags of toys for other cancer patients. The packages became hospital-safe plastic jars stuffed with toys, crafts and activities to surprise children while they are in the hospital for treatment. JoyJars, named after Jessie’s middle name, contain a little bit of fun during ordinary days, but mostly they contain a little bit of Jessie’s positive attitude that fills the room every time one is opened.(虽然12岁的杰西有一点点战胜癌症的机会,但她决心充分利用自己的时间。确诊后的那个早晨,杰西在厨房的桌子旁为其他癌症患者打包玩具。这些包裹后来变成了医院里安全的塑料罐子,里面装满了玩具、手工制品和各种活动用品,用来给那些在医院接受治疗的孩子们一个惊喜。“欢乐罐”是以杰西的中间名命名的,它们在平常的日子里能带来些许乐趣,但更重要的是,每打开一个罐子,里面都蕴含着杰西那积极向上的态度,这种态度能充满整个房间)”可知,Jessie在短暂的生命中传播了快乐,她的故事体现了在面对困难时创造积极影响,也就是变困境为机会,因此本文是想告诉我们D选项“When life gives you lemons, make lemonade.(当生活给你柠檬时,把它做成柠檬水。)”。故选D。 (25-26高三上·重庆万州·开学考试)I had studied civil engineering at college. Growing up in an impoverished rural area, I was fascinated by architecture in cities, and I hoped to design buildings myself someday.However, as my degree progressed, I became interested in research and wanted to continue my academic journey. I wasn’t sure what to study at first. Then the flood came, and it all became clear. After spending much of my summer volunteering in affected communities, I decided to focus my career on natural disasters, exploring the various factors behind them, as well as their impacts on society. As a first step, I applied for a master’s program in development studies — a multidisciplinary(多门学科的) program that included coursework in sustainable development, geography, and economics, as well as hands-on community projects. This decision shocked my friends and family. Relatives kept asking my parents why I was leaving engineering to study social sciences. They warned my parents, who only have a primary education, that this path might make it hard for me, their only son, to find a job.However, I was determined and went ahead with what I thought was right for me. The program, which exposed me to projects that helped communities plan for climate change and other troubles, convinced me I was on the right path. I was excited to start the program and be surrounded by some of the brightest minds in the country. Sharing what I’ve learned with people in my community has also given me satisfaction. There have been challenges along the way, but the opportunity to dig into an issue I care so passionately about and try to help people makes it all worthwhile. Above all, my journey has taught me that it’s OK to follow my heart, even when the path seems unconventional. 5. What motivated the author to shift his academic focus? A. A natural disaster experience. B. Exposure to urban architecture. C. A great deal of pressure from his family. D. Financial difficulties in his hometown. 6.

I wasn’t sure what to study at first. Then the flood came, and it all became clear.(然而,随着学位课程的推进,我对研究产生了兴趣,并希望继续我的学术道路。起初我不确定要学什么。然后洪水来了,一切都变得清晰了。)”以及第二段首句“After spending much of my summer volunteering in affected communities, I decided to focus my career on natural disasters...(在受灾社区做了大半个夏天的志愿者后,我决定将职业生涯聚焦于自然灾害……)”可知,一次自然灾害(洪水)的经历促使作者转变了学术研究方向。故选A项。 6. 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Relatives kept asking my parents why I was leaving engineering to study social sciences. They warned my parents, who only have a primary education, that this path might make it hard for me, their only son, to find a job.(亲戚们不断问我父母,为什么我要放弃工程学而改学社会科学。他们警告只有小学学历的父母,这条路可能会让我——他们唯一的儿子——很难找到工作。)”可知,亲戚们对作者的决定持反对态度。故选C项。 7. 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“The program, which exposed me to projects that helped communities plan for climate change and other troubles, convinced me I was on the right path.(这个项目让我接触到帮助社区应对气候变化和其他问题的规划项目,这让我确信自己走在了正确的道路上。)”可知,该项目坚定了作者转换研究领域的决心。故选B项。 8. 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“However, I was determined and went ahead with what I thought was right for me.(然而,我意志坚定,坚持做我认为对自己正确的事。)”体现了作者的“坚定(Determined)”;再根据第五段中的“the opportunity to dig into an issue I care so passionately about and try to help people makes it all worthwhile.(能够深入研究一个我满怀热情关注的问题,并努力帮助他人,这一切都变得值得了。)”体现了作者的“热情(passionate)”。因此,“坚定且热情”最能描述作者。故选C项。 事件评价题3篇 【名师点津】 “事件评价题”的最优处理方法: 第一、先整体把握人物经历、产品性能及文章主题,多为弘扬“真善美”主旋律主题。 第二、结合题干锁定原文答题区间,圈划关键词句,尤其是动词和形容词,注意提炼态度倾向。 第三、比对选项形容词的褒贬性,多为并列型,一对一错,采用“排除法”,去伪存真确定答案。 【高考真题】 (2025浙江1月卷) A novel design approach to gardening has been gaining in popularity worldwide. Referred to as matrix planting, this approach aims for nature to do a lot more of the heavy lifting in the garden, and even some of the designing. Eschewing fertilizers (化肥) and power tools, it’s based on an elegantly simple principle: to garden more like nature does. The concept was born when German city planners sought to plant large areas of parkland after World War II in a reproducible way that would need minimal maintenance. Planners created planting mixes that could be used modularly (模块化). In a matrix garden, plants with similar cultural needs are grouped so that they will grow together above and below ground, forming a cooperative ecosystem that conserves water and discourages weeds. Dutch plantsman and designer Piet Oudolf’s gardens popularized this style, adding artistic flavors to the planting mixes while playing with color and form, including four-season interest and serving the needs of wildlife. Beautiful year-round, they invite you to enjoy the smallest detail, from the sound of grasses in the gentle wind to the sculpture of odd-looking seed heads. It takes a lot of thought to look this natural. While matrix gardens appear wild, they are carefully planned, with cultural needs the first consideration. Led by the concept of “right plant, right place,” they match plants that enjoy the same soil, sun and weather conditions, and arrange them according to their patterns of growth. The benefits are substantial for both gardener and planet. With human inputs dramatically reduced, the garden’s ecology can develop well. Established matrix gardens should not need the life support we give most gardens: fertilizer, dividing, regular watering. Compared to traditional garden plots, they increase carbon absorption, reduce storm water runoff and boost habitat and biodiversity significantly. 28. What does the underlined word “Eschewing” in the first paragraph mean? A. Running out of. B. Keeping away from. C. Putting up with. D. Taking advantage of. 29. Why was the idea of matrix planting introduced? A. To control weeds in large gardens. B. To bring in foreign species of plants. C. To conserve soil and water resources. D. To develop low-maintenance parkland. 30. Which of the following best describes Piet Oudolf’s gardens? A. Traditional. B. Odd-looking. C. Tasteful. D. Well-protected. 31. Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text? A. The future of gardening is WILD B. Nature treats all lives as EQUALS C. Matrix gardens need more CARE D. Old garden plots work WONDERS 【导读】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了矩阵式种植方法的理念、起源、发展、原则及其带来的益处。这种种植方法通过精心规划植物组合,减少人工干预,发挥自然的最大作用,从而创建一个自给自足的生态系统,不仅美观,还能显著提升环境效益。 28. B。词义猜测题。根据首段第二句“Referred to as matrix planting, this approach aims for nature to do a lot more of the heavy lifting in the garden, and even some of the designing.”以及最后一句中的to garden more like nature does可知,矩阵式种植方法旨在减少人工干预,发挥自然在花园的生长和设计中的更大作用。故Eschewing 应该指减少、摒弃化肥以及园艺电动工具的使用,故选B。 29. D。事实细节题。根据第二段首句“The concept was born when German city planners sought to plant large areas of parkland after World War II in a reproducible way that would need minimal maintenance.”可知,矩阵式种植的目的是开发维护度极低的公园用地。develop low-maintenance parkland 是plant large areas of parkland ...need minimal maintenance 的同义表达,故选D。 30. C。推理判断题。根据第三段中的adding artistic flavors、playing with color and form、Beautiful、enjoy the smallest detail、the sound of grasses、the sculpture of odd-looking seed heads 可知,Piet Oudolf 的花园融入了艺术特色,巧妙运用色彩和形态,四季皆美,细节丰富,具有观赏价值。Tasteful意为“雅致的;有品位的”,是对artistic、Beautiful、enjoy的概括。 31. A。主旨大意题。文章首段开门见山,介绍矩阵式种植方法的理念:减少人工干预,发挥自然的作用。第二、三段介绍这种设计方法的起源和发展,第四段聚焦矩阵式种植的原则“适地适树”,末段分析这种设计方法带来的益处。据此可知,文章旨在介绍一种新型园艺设计方法“矩阵式种植”,A项中WILD 意为“自然生长的”,契合矩阵式种植的理念,故选A。 【名校模拟】 (25-26高三上·黑龙江·开学考试)Walk around most large cities in Europe and the United States, and you’d be thinking that we’re living in a new world of affordable and effortless mobility for all, with the smartphone in your pocket an entrance to shared bikes and electric cars. But if you’re disabled or elderly, living in a low-income area or without a smartphone or credit card, using these shared mobility services becomes a lot more difficult. Shared mobility could be a key part of a more sustainable transportation system. But to be most effective, it needs to include everyone. Right now, various initiatives and projects are seeking creative solutions to reach underserved communities. The E-Bike Library model was born in such context. E-bike libraries address a number of barriers: The bikes are free, and the libraries are hosted by places that are already an important part of the community. In addition to maintaining the bikes, the programs also organize training, group rides and educational events to familiarize people with cycling culture and safety. For Mobitwin, a social transportation service for elderly people and those with reduced mobility, personal interactions and affordability are important. Founded by the Belgian mobility nongovernmental organization Mpact, Mobitwin lets elderly people request a vehicle ride from a volunteer for a minimal fee. The program, which has been running since the 1980s, currently serves around 40,000 people in Belgium. Being able to get out and about is a crucial part of participating in society, and reduced mobility in old age goes hand in hand with social isolation and loneliness, according to Esen Köse, project manager at Mpact. “We want to make sure that people who are often not in the social cycle of going to work or school, who are actually often left out, still have an option to get out of the house and do the simple daily things, like going to the grocery store or seeing families,” he says, “our big goal is to engage as many people as possible in shared mobility, so supporting service is essential to facilitate this shift.” 1. What is the problem with the current shared mobility according to the text? A. Disturbance to traffic order. B. Overdependence on smart devices. C. Limited involvement of certain groups. D. Heavy financial burden for vehicle users. 2. How does the E-Bike Library help underserved groups? A. By upgrading cycling facilities. B. By publishing cycling-related books. C. By building a cycling-support community. D. By providing safety guarantees for cycling. 3. Which of the following words best describes Mobitwin? A. Experimental. B. Commercial. C. Accessible. D. Digital. 4. What can you infer from Esen Köse’s words? A. Social mobility depends on financial aid. B. Shared mobility promotes green travel shift. C. Public mobility is mainly based on device updates. D. Mobility is a key to the elderly’s emotional wellness. 【答案】1. C 2. C 3. C 4.

E-bike libraries address a number of barriers: The bikes are free, and the libraries are hosted by places that are already an important part of the community. In addition to maintaining the bikes, the programs also organize training, group rides and educational events to familiarize people with cycling culture and safety.(“电动自行车图书馆”模式正是在这种背景下应运而生的。电动自行车图书馆解决了诸多难题:这些自行车是免费提供的,而且图书馆设立在已经深深融入社区的场所内。除了维护自行车外,这些项目还组织培训、团体骑行活动以及教育活动,以帮助人们熟悉骑行文化和安全知识)”可知,电动自行车图书馆通过建立一个支持骑行的社群帮助那些弱势群体。故选C。 3. 推理判断题。根据第四段“For Mobitwin, a social transportation service for elderly people and those with reduced mobility, personal interactions and affordability are important. Founded by the Belgian mobility nongovernmental organization Mpact, Mobitwin lets elderly people request a vehicle ride from a volunteer for a minimal fee.(对于“摩比特温”这一专为老年人及行动不便者提供的社交出行服务而言,人际互动和价格合理性至关重要。该服务由比利时的非政府组织“姆帕克特”创立,它允许老年人向志愿者申请乘车服务,并只需支付少量费用)”可知,Mobitwin使老年人能以极低廉的价格获得志愿者搭载服务,特点是“可获得的”。故选C。 4. 推理判断题。根据第五段“We want to make sure that people who are often not in the social cycle of going to work or school, who are actually often left out, still have an option to get out of the house and do the simple daily things, like going to the grocery store or seeing families(我们希望确保那些通常无法参与正常工作或上学的群体(他们往往会被排除在外),仍然能够有机会走出家门,去做一些简单的日常事情,比如去超市购物或者探望家人)”和“Being able to get out and about is a crucial part of participating in society, and reduced mobility in old age goes hand in hand with social isolation and loneliness, according to Esen Köse, project manager at Mpact.(埃森·科斯是“Mpact”项目的负责人,他表示:“能够外出活动是参与社会生活的重要组成部分,而老年人行动能力的下降往往伴随着社交孤立和孤独感的产生。”)”可知,增强老年人的活动能力,使其有条件走出家门参与日常社会活动是减少其情感孤独的关键因素之一。故选D。 (25-26高三上·贵州贵阳·阶段练习)I initially became a Spanish teacher not out of passion but necessity — like many in their twenties, stuck in a quarter-life crisis, trying to find a way to make some extra money. That’s how one morning I found myself downloading a language app, creating a profile, and recording an introduction video hoping to convince potential students to book a trial lesson with me. Despite watching tutorials (教程) online for only seven hours, I pretended to be a qualified teacher. But on the other side, my first student, Robert — an American living in Medellin, Spain — changed everything. He wasn’t trying to master grammar or speak perfect textbook Spanish. He wanted to improve his fluency and learn the local paisa slang, so he could understand the people in the street stands, the bakery guy, the lady selling coffee. I remember our first class vividly. I explained the difference between a rolo, a caleno, or a samario, which led to discussions about regional accents, word meanings, and how everything changes depending on who says it and how. Robert also shared his life in Ohio, experiences in Latin America, and his relationship with food and people. Our Spanish classes turned into a sort of cultural lab. In that back-and-forth of ideas, we unknowingly started building bridges. It hit me that teaching a language goes far beyond teaching grammar. It’s about opening the door to a new world and inviting someone else to walk through it. I now believe language teaching is a powerful tool for building bridges across cultures and for revealing stereotypes that divide us. In a globalized world, language teachers are perhaps — agents of change and social transformation, sharing culture through lived experiences. 5. Why did the author download a language app? A. To book a trial lesson. B. To watch tutorials online. C. To learn a new language. D. To earn additional income. 6. What is Robert’s goal in taking the author’s lesson? A. Speaking perfect textbook Spanish. B. Making friends living in Medellin. C. Understanding the locals accurately. D. Acquiring Spanish grammar rules. 7. Which of the following best describes the author’s first class with Robert? A. Organized and vivid. B. Interactive and practical. C. Serious and formal. D. Academic and inspiring. 8. What is a language teacher supposed to do at present? A. Strengthen stereotypes. B. Evaluate unknown ideas. C. Foster cultural exchanges. D. Learn from experiences. 【答案】5. D 6. C 7. B 8. C 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述作者最初因谋生成为西班牙语老师,在与学生罗伯特的教学互动中,领悟到语言教学对跨文化交流和打破刻板印象的重要意义。 5. 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“I initially became a Spanish teacher not out of passion but necessity — like many in their twenties, stuck in a quarter-life crisis, trying to find a way to make some extra money. (我最初成为一名西班牙语老师,并非出于热爱,而是出于需要——就像许多二十多岁陷入人生危机的人一样,我想找个办法多赚点钱)”以及第二段中的“That’s how one morning I found myself downloading a language app, creating a profile, and recording an introduction video hoping to convince potential students to book a trial lesson with me. (就这样,一天早上,我开始下载一个语言应用程序,创建个人资料,录制介绍视频,希望能说服潜在学生预订我的试听课)”可知,作者下载语言应用程序是为了吸引学生、赚取额外收入。故选D项。 6. 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“He wasn’t trying to master grammar or speak perfect textbook Spanish. He wanted to improve his fluency and learn the local paisa slang, so he could understand the people in the street stands, the bakery guy, the lady selling coffee. (他并非想掌握语法或说一口完美的课本式西班牙语。他想提高自己的语言流利度,学习当地的 paisa 俚语,这样就能听懂街头小摊的商贩、面包店老板和卖咖啡的女士在说什么)”可知,罗伯特上课的目标是准确理解当地人的话语。故选C项。 7. 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“I explained the difference between a rolo, a caleno, or a samario, which led to discussions about regional accents, word meanings, and how everything changes depending on who says it and how. Robert also shared his life in Ohio, experiences in Latin America, and his relationship with food and people. (我解释了rolo、caleno 和samario 之间的区别,这引发了关于地区口音、词义以及语言表达如何因说话人不同而变化的讨论。罗伯特也分享了他在俄亥俄州的生活、在拉丁美洲的经历,以及他与食物和人的关联)”可知,课堂上作者讲解语言知识,学生分享生活,有问有答、互动频繁,且内容围绕实用的俚语和日常交流展开,因此“互动性强且实用”最能描述这堂课。故选B项。 8. 细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“I now believe language teaching is a powerful tool for building bridges across cultures and for revealing stereotypes that divide us. In a globalized world, language teachers are perhaps agents of change and social transformation, sharing culture through lived experiences. (我现在认为,语言教学是搭建跨文化桥梁、打破分隔我们的刻板印象的有力工具。在全球化的世界里,语言教师或许是变革和社会转型的推动者,通过真实经历分享文化)”可知,如今语言教师应该促进文化交流。故选C项。 隐含推断题3篇 【名师点津】 一、解题妙招 隐含推断题要求考生根据文中的信息进行合理的、适度的逻辑推断,推断出作者没有直接说明的内容,可能会发生的事情,理解作者的言外之意等。考生只有正确把握文章的内在关系,理解关键词句的真正含义,才可能作出准确的推断。此类题目的题干主要包括六个动词:infer(推断),indicate(象征,暗示),imply(暗示),suggest(暗示),conclude(得出结论)和 assume(假定,设想)。 二、思维导图 【高考真题】 (2025全国I卷) While safety improvements might have been made to our streets in recent years, transport studies also show declines in pedestrian (行人) mobility, especially among young children. Many parents say there’s too much traffic on the roads for their children to walk safely to school, so they pack them into the car instead. Dutch authors Thalia Verkade and Marco te Brömmelstroet are bothered by facts like these. In their new book Movement: How to Take Back Our Streets and Transform Our Lives, they call for a rethink of our streets and the role they play in our lives. Life on city streets started to change decades ago. Whole neighbourhoods were destroyed to make way for new road networks and kids had to play elsewhere. Some communities fought back. Most famously, a Canadian journalist who had moved her family to Manhattan in the early 1950s led a campaign to stop the destruction of her local park. Describing her alarm at its proposed replacement with an expressway, Jane Jacobs called on her mayor (市长) to champion “New York as a decent place to live, and not just rush through.” Similar campaigns occurred in Australia in the late 1960s and 1970s as well. Although these campaigns were widespread, the reality is that the majority of the western cities were completely redesigned around the needs of the motor car. The number of cars on roads has been increasing rapidly. In Australia we now have over twenty million cars for just over twenty-six million people, among the highest rate of car ownership in the world. We invest a lot in roads that help us rush through, but we fail to account for the true costs. Do we really recognise what it costs us as a society when children can’t move safely around our communities? The authors of Movement have it right: it’s time to think differently about that street outside your front door. 28. What phenomenon does the author point out in paragraph 1? A. Cars often get stuck on the road. B. Traffic accidents occur frequently. C. People walk less and drive more. D. Pedestrians fail to follow the rules. 29. What were the Canadian journalist and other campaigners trying to do? A. Keep their cities livable. B. Promote cultural diversity. C. Help the needy families. D. Make expressways accessible. 30. What can be inferred about the campaigns in Australia in the late 1960s and 1970s? A. They boosted the sales of cars. B. They turned out largely ineffective. C. They won government support. D. They advocated building new parks. 31. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Why the Rush? B. What’s Next? C. Where to Stay? D. Who to Blame? 【答案】28. C 29. A 30. B 31. A 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要介绍了西方城市过度围绕汽车设计导致行人流动性下降,尤其是儿童步行减少的现象,并通过历史案例和现状分析呼吁反思街道功能,重视城市宜居性。 28.细节理解题。根据文章第一段“While safety improvements might have been made to our streets in recent years, transport studies also show declines in pedestrian (行人) mobility, especially among young children. Many parents say there’s too much traffic on the roads for their children to walk safely to school, so they pack them into the car instead. (虽然近年来我们的街道可能已经改善了安全性,但交通研究也表明行人的流动性下降,尤其是年轻儿童。许多家长说,路上的交通太拥挤,他们的孩子无法安全步行上学,所以他们把孩子塞进车里)”可知,作者指出的现象是人们步行减少、开车增多。故选C。 29. 推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Most famously, a Canadian journalist who had moved her family to Manhattan in the early 1950s led a campaign to stop the destruction of her local park. Describing her alarm at its proposed replacement with an expressway, Jane Jacobs called on her mayor (市长) to champion “New York as a decent place to live, and not just rush through.” (最著名的是,一位加拿大记者在20世纪50年代初举家迁往曼哈顿,她领导了一场阻止当地公园被毁的运动。在描述她对用高速公路取代公园的提议感到震惊时,Jane Jacobs呼吁她的市长捍卫“纽约作为适宜居住的地方,而不仅是匆匆穿过的通道”)”可推知,加拿大记者和其他运动参与者旨在保持城市宜居性。故选A。 30. 推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段“Although these campaigns were widespread, the reality is that the majority of the western cities were completely redesigned around the needs of the motor car. The number of cars on roads has been increasing rapidly. (尽管这些运动很普遍,但现实是大多数西方城市完全围绕汽车需求重新设计。道路上的汽车数量一直在迅速增加)”可推知,20世纪60年代末和70年代澳大利亚的竞选活动未能阻止汽车发展,基本上没有效果。故选B。 31. 主旨大意题。通读全文,并根据文章最后一段“We invest a lot in roads that help us rush through, but we fail to account for the true costs. Do we really recognise what it costs us as a society when children can’t move safely around our communities? (我们在帮助我们快速通过的道路上投入了大量资金,但我们没有考虑到真正的成本。我们真的认识到当孩子们不能在我们的社区安全地移动时,我们作为一个社会将会付出什么代价吗)”可推知,本文批判城市过度追求交通效率、忽视行人需求的现象,A项“Why the Rush? (为何匆匆?)”质问“rush through (匆匆通行)”的规划理念,契合主旨,最适合作为本文标题。故选A。 【名校模拟】 (25-26高三上·湖北武汉·阶段练习)To keep a Hula-Hoop aloft (悬浮) with robots, it helps to be in shape — literally. Experiments with hoop-slinging robots have revealed how these rings stay up despite the pull of gravity. The shape of the robot’s body is a crucial factor, researchers report in the Jan. 7 Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. The shape needs to have “hips” — a slope (斜面) that provides upward force to balance gravity. And a “waist” arch — like an hourglass (沙漏) — keeps the hoop from moving up or down and sliding off. Inspired by performers near his home in Greenwich Village, applied mathematician Leif Ristroph of New York University began considering the physics of Hula-Hoops. Previous studies, he and his coworkers realized, hadn’t explained how the hoop stays aloft. So Ristroph and his coworkers gave it a try. In experiments, a circling cylindrical robot couldn’t keep a hoop from sliding down. It was missing the essential upward force, generated when a hoop swings over a sloped shape. But a cone-shaped robot, with a slope but no waistlike curve, also failed. If the hoop began toward the top of the cone, the upward force overpowered gravity, and the hoop would move up. If the hoop began toward the bottom, the upward force wasn’t enough to keep it aloft, and it moved down. But an hourglass-shaped robot kept a hoop stably aloft. People should be able to hula-hoop regardless of the body shape, by adapting their gyrations (旋转) based on position changes of the hoop. Indeed, the researchers were able to get a cone-shaped robot to hula-hoop by adjusting the rate of gyration depending on how high the hoop slid. A correct launch was also essential in the experiments. If the hoop started off too slow, the attempt would fail. In successful sessions, the hoop lined up with the gyrating body, so that the hoop and the body always shifted in the same direction. “That’s also the best way to launch a hoop,” Ristroph says. “We were surprised that an activity as popular, fun, and healthy as hula hooping wasn’t understood even at a basic physics level,” says Ristroph. “As we made progress on the research, we realized that the math and physics involved are very subtle.” 1. Which body shape is ideal for Hula-Hooping according to the experiment? A. Cone-shaped. B. Hourglass-shaped. C. Round. D. Cylindrical. 2. What is the message implied in the fourth paragraph? A. Hula-hooping can help shape people’s body gradually. B. Robots are flexible in learning human body movements. C. Anyone can do hula-hooping by adjusting their movements. D. A perfect body shape is required to be a good hula-hoop player. 3. What was essential for a successful Hula-Hoop launch in the experiments? A. Starting with the right shape. B. Opposite movement of the hoop and the body. C. Using a hoop of the proper size. D. Same directional shifts of the hoop and the body. 4. Which can be used as a proper title for the text? A. Scientists Identify the Perfect Hula Hoop “Body Type” B. Hula-hooping Inspires NYU Mathematicians C. How Do Hula Hoops Benefit Our Health? D. What Do Hula Hoops Do for Your Body? 【答案】1. B 2. C 3. D 4. A 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了纽约大学团队实验探究机器人转呼啦圈原理及其发现。 1. 细节理解题。根据第三段“But an hourglass-shaped robot kept a hoop stably aloft.(但一个沙漏形状的机器人成功地将一个圆环稳稳地举在空中)”可知,沙漏形机器人最适合玩呼啦圈。故选B。 2. 推理判断题。根据第四段“People should be able to hula-hoop regardless of the body shape, by adapting their gyrations based on position changes of the hoop. Indeed, the researchers were able to get a cone-shaped robot to hula-hoop by adjusting the rate of gyration depending on how high the hoop slid.(人们无论身材如何,都应该能够玩转呼啦圈。他们只需根据呼啦圈位置的变化调整自己的旋转动作即可。事实上,研究人员能够让一个圆锥形机器人通过改变旋转速度(根据呼啦圈上升的高度)来实现玩呼啦圈的动作)”可知,第四段表明任何人通过调整动作都能玩转呼啦圈。故选C。 3. 细节理解题。根据第五段“In successful sessions, the hoop lined up with the gyrating body, so that the hoop and the body always shifted in the same direction.(在成功的训练过程中,圆环会与身体的摆动保持一致,使得圆环和身体总是朝着同一个方向移动)”可知,在这些实验中,成功启动呼啦圈的关键因素是环圈和身体的相同方向移动。故选D。 4. 主旨大意题。根据第一段“The shape of the robot’s body is a crucial factor, researchers report in the Jan. 7 Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. The shape needs to have “hips” — a slope that provides upward force to balance gravity. And a “waist” arch — like an hourglass — keeps the hoop from moving up or down and sliding off.(研究人员在1月7日的《美国国家科学院院刊》上报告称,机器人的外形是一个至关重要的因素。其外形必须具备“臀部”——一种斜面结构,能够提供向上的力量以平衡重力。同时还需要有一个“腰部弧度”——类似于沙漏的形状——以防止圆环上下移动或滑落)”结合文章主要说明了纽约大学团队实验探究机器人转呼啦圈原理,发现沙漏形机身是理想形状。可知,A选项“科学家确定了完美的‘呼啦圈’身材类型”最符合文章标题。故选A。 (25-26高三上·河北·阶段练习)British gardens frequently fight with heavy rainfall and sudden cold spells, which quickly turn the ground muddy and slippery. Maintaining a green and safe lawn (草坪) becomes a tough task — wet weather often leaves lawns bare, and entire gardens end up unused for months. Traditional lawns require constant care to stay healthy, yet poor weather easily makes them unplayable, leaving outdoor spaces abandoned from late autumn through early spring. Modern surface options offer effective fixes. Artificial grass has advanced greatly: New varieties use soft, multitonal yarns (纱线) to copy real grass, creating a natural look that fits well with garden settings. These high-quality artificial lawns have UV-resistant fibres and strong year-round durability, keeping their appearance even after heavy use or sun exposure. Unlike natural grass, which goes fragile in winter, they stay usable all year, perfect for families with kids or pets. Permeable paving is another solid choice for walkways and courtyards, as it lets water drain through to avoid puddles, though it lacks the warm, soft feel of grass. Proper installation is key, especially for drainage. A compacted (压实的) crushed stone sub-base is a must for the artificial lawn — it prevents water from pooling underneath — while using the wrong sand or skimping on sub-base depth leads to wet areas. Soil compaction also worsens wet problems, cutting air and water flow by up to 30% versus well-aerated ground. Environmentally, artificial lawns reduce water use by around 55% yearly, but traditional lawns need hundreds of litres weekly in dry spells. Pairing modern surfaces with rainwater harvesting systems and native planting schemes boosts sustainability, making gardens both practical and eco-friendly. Zoning gardens — using artificial lawns for play areas, permeable paving for dining spots, and raised beds for planting — plus adding small wildflower patches, creates functional year-round spaces. Demand for these solutions is rising in northern UK regions like Greater Manchester and Yorkshire, helping homeowners overcome waterlogging (水涝) and fully reclaim their outdoor areas. 5. Why do traditional British gardens stay unused in winter? A. The gardens lack proper care. B. The lawns need seasonal rest. C. Bad weather ruins the lawns. D. Indoor activities are more suitable. 6. What is a feature of the new artificial grass? A. It is the same as real grass. B. It fades in strong sunlight. C. It reduces heavy rainfall. D. It can be used all year round. 7. What can an improper sub-base for an artificial lawn bring about? A. Increasing air flow. B. Waterlogged ground. C. A crowded garden. D. The lawn’s expansion. 8. What does the text imply about sustainable garden design? A. It mainly uses fully recyclable products. B. It requires much water for native plants. C. It abandons traditional lawns completely. D. It combines modern features and eco-elements. 【答案】5. C 6. D 7. B 8. D 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章指出英国传统花园因恶劣天气难维护,介绍人造草坪、透水铺装等现代方案,提及安装要点与环保性,还建议分区设计以充分利用户外空间。 5. 细节理解题。根据第一段“British gardens frequently fight with heavy rainfall and sudden cold spells, which quickly turn the ground muddy and slippery. Maintaining a green and safe lawn (草坪) becomes a tough task — wet weather often leaves lawns bare, and entire gardens end up unused for months. Traditional lawns require constant care to stay healthy, yet poor weather easily makes them unplayable, leaving outdoor spaces abandoned from late autumn through early spring.(英国的花园常要应对强降雨和突如其来的寒潮,这些天气会很快让地面变得泥泞湿滑。想要维持一片葱郁且安全的草坪成了一项艰巨的任务 —— 潮湿天气往往会使草坪变得光秃秃的,整个花园也可能因此好几个月都无人使用。传统草坪需要精心照料才能保持良好状态,但恶劣天气很容易让它们无法供人活动,导致从深秋到初春这段时间里,户外空间都被闲置)”可知,传统英国花园在冬季闲置是因为恶劣天气破坏了草坪。故选C项。 6. 细节理解题。根据第二段“Unlike natural grass, which goes fragile in winter, they stay usable all year, perfect for families with kids or pets. (与冬季会变得脆弱的天然草坪不同,它们全年都可使用,非常适合有孩子或宠物的家庭)”可知,新型人造草坪的特点是可全年使用。故选D项。 7. 细节理解题。根据第三段“A compacted (压实的) crushed stone sub-base is a must for the artificial lawn — it prevents water from pooling underneath — while using the wrong sand or skimping on sub-base depth leads to wet areas. (压实的碎石基层是人造草坪的必备条件 —— 它能防止水在下方积聚 —— 而使用错误的沙子或缩减基层深度会导致区域潮湿)”可知,人造草坪基层不当会导致地面积水。故选B项。 8. 推理判断题。根据第四段“Environmentally, artificial lawns reduce water use by around 55% yearly, but traditional lawns need hundreds of litres weekly in dry spells. Pairing modern surfaces with rainwater harvesting systems and native planting schemes boosts sustainability, making gardens both practical and eco-friendly.(从环保角度来看,人造草坪每年可减少约55%的用水量,而传统草坪在干旱期每周则需要数百升水。将这类现代地面材料与雨水收集系统、本土植物种植方案相结合,能提升可持续性,让花园既实用又环保。”可知,可持续花园设计需结合现代设施(如人造草坪)与环保元素(如雨水收集、本土种植)。故选D项。 找共同点题3篇 【名师点津】 一、解题小妙招 1.结构法:如果属于“总分总”结构,多从“总处”找依据; 2.排除法:可以运用排除法,只要一项不合要求就应该排除; 3.关键词法:依据题干圈划相应的关键词语,据此知道答案。 二、零失误小妙招 1.做题留痕,依据题干在原文圈划答题区间; 2.划掉错项,去伪存真,快速作答提升效率; 3.错题反思,专用笔记本记录错因举一反三。 【高考真题】 (2024新课标II卷) Choice of Walks for Beginner and Experienced Walkers The Carlow Autumn Walking Festival is a great opportunity for the beginner, experienced or advanced walker to enjoy the challenges of Carlow’s mountain hikes or the peace of its woodland walks.

Born to a Jewish family in Florence, she moved to Paris where she worked as a physician and performed surgery. In 1322 she was tried for practicing unlawfully. In spite of the court hearing testimonials (证明) of her ability as a doctor, she was banned from medicine. James Barry (c.1789 — 1865) was born Margaret Bulkley in Ireland but, dressed as a man, she was accepted by Edinburgh University to study medicine. She qualified as a surgeon in 1813, then joined the British Army, serving overseas. Barry retired in 1859, having practiced her entire medical profession living and working as a man. Tan Yunxian (1461 — 1554) was a Chinese physician who learned her skills from her grandparents. Chinese women at the time could not serve apprenticeships (学徒期) with doctors. However, Tan passed the official exam. Tan treated women from all walks of life. In 1511, Tan wrote a book, Sayings of a Female Doctor, describing her life as a physician. Rebecca Lee Crumpler (1831 — 1895) worked as a nurse for eight years before studying in medical college in Boston in 1860. Four years later, she was the first African American woman to receive a medical degree. She moved to Virginia in 1865, where she provided medical care to freed slaves. 21.

Probably fish and chips, or a Sunday dinner of meat and two vegetables. But is British food really so uninteresting? Even though Britain has a reputation for less-than-impressive cuisine, it is producing more top class chefs who appear frequently on our television screens and whose recipe books frequently top the best seller lists. It’s thanks to these TV chefs rather than any advertising campaign that Britons are turning away from meat-and-two-veg and ready-made meals and becoming more adventurous in their cooking habits. It is recently reported that the number of those sticking to a traditional diet is slowly declining and around half of Britain’s consumers would like to change or improve their cooking in some way. There has been a rise in the number of students applying for food courses at UK universities and colleges. It seems that TV programmes have helped change what people think about cooking. According to a new study from market analysts, 1 in 5 Britons say that watching cookery programmes on TV has encouraged them to try different food. Almost one third say they now use a wider variety of ingredients (配料) than they used to, and just under 1 in 4 say they now buy better quality ingredients than before. One in four adults say that TV chefs have made them much more confident about expanding their cookery knowledge and skills, and young people are also getting more interested in cooking. The UK’s obsession (痴迷) with food is reflected through television scheduling. Cookery shows and documentaries about food are broadcast more often than before. With an increasing number of male chefs on TV, it’s no longer “uncool” for boys to like cooking. 28. What do people usually think of British food? A. It is simple and plain. B. It is rich in nutrition. C. It lacks authentic tastes. D. It deserves a high reputation. 29. Which best describes cookery programme on British TV? A. Authoritative. B. Creative. C. Profitable. D. Influential. 30. Which is the percentage of the people using more diverse ingredients now? A. 20%. B. 24%. C. 25%. D. 33%. 31. What might the author continue talking about? A. The art of cooking in other countries. B. Male chefs on TV programmes. C. Table manners in the UK. D. Studies of big eaters. 【答案】28. A 29. D 30. D 31. B 【导语】本篇是一篇说明文,介绍英国人在英国烹饪节目的影响下改变对烹饪的看法,并尝试新的烹饪习惯。 28.细节理解题。根据第一段的“What comes into your mind when you think of British food? Probably fish and chips, or a Sunday dinner of meat and two vegetables. But is British food really so uninteresting?”(当你想到英国食物时,你会想到什么?你可能想到的是炸鱼薯条,或是一肉两菜的周日晚餐。但是,英国食物真的如此无趣吗?)可知,提及英国食物,大家往往只是想到炸鱼薯条和周日烤肉,所以人们通常会觉得英国食物平平无奇。故选A项。 29.推理判断题。根据第二段的“It’s thanks to these TV chefs rather than any advertising campaign that Britons are turning away from meat-and-two-veg and ready-made meals and becoming more adventurous in their cooking habits.”(正是由于电视上的这些大厨,而不是凭借广告宣传活动,英国人正在远离“一肉两菜”和速食餐,而变得更加愿意探索新的烹饪习惯。)和“It seems that TV programmes have helped change what people think about cooking.”(似乎电视节目帮助改变了人们对烹饪的看法。)可知,英国的烹饪节目能够改变英国人对烹饪的看法,尝试从传统的英式饮食走出来,尝试新的烹饪习惯,由此推知英国的烹饪节目具有很大的影响力。故选D项。 30.细节理解题。根据第三段的“Almost one third say they now use a wider variety of ingredients (配料) than they used to, and just under 1 in 4 say they now buy better quality ingredients than before.”(几乎三分之一的人表示他们现在使用的配料比以前更多,将近四分之一的人表示他们现在购买的配料质量比以前更好。)可知,三分之一左右的人,也就是33%左右的人,使用的配料比以前更多。故选D项。 31.推理判断题。根据第三段的最后一句“With an increasing number of male chefs on TV, it’s no longer “uncool” for boys to like cooking.”(随着电视上出现越来越多男性厨师,男孩子喜欢烹饪不再是一件“不酷”的事了。)可知,接下来,文章应该具体介绍电视上的男性厨师,从而与上文形成语义连贯。故选B项。 【名校模拟】 (2025·陕西安康·模拟预测)At most art museums, there is a fundamental and well-established rule for viewers: “Look but don’t touch.” This rule is in place to protect the precious artworks from potential damage. However, the Sainsbury Centre in the United Kingdom is a refreshing exception. The Sainsbury Centre recently initiated a groundbreaking new program. This program breaks the traditional barriers between the audience and the art, inviting museumgoers to have an up-close and personal encounter with the exhibits. A typical example is the invitation to hug Henry Moore’s 1932 sculpture Mother and Child. Visitors to the centre listen to an audio tour recorded by the museum’s director, Jago Cooper. His voice guides them not just to view Moore’s sculpture but to appreciate it! They’re asked to make eye contact with the mother figure, close their eyes, and think of their earliest memory of being held as a child. “That feeling within you, that feeling of protection, is what Henry was trying to create with this work,” the audio explains. The exercise is designed to help visitors realize that art is an emotional state of mind, an idea that Moore himself seemed to agree with. Cooper says there’s video footage (镜头) of the artist telling one of the centre’s founders that anyone who thinks they understand his art without touching it doesn’t know anything about sculpture. Usually museums discourage visitors from handling art because oils and dirt on people’s hands can damage the works. People could also accidentally scratch (划伤) or break the art. Cooper acknowledges that allowing people to physically interact with art must be done on a case-by-case basis. “Lots of works of art aren’t designed to be touched,” he says. In those instances, they invite visitors to engage with art in other non-traditional ways. That includes dancing with 1,200-year-old Tang Dynasty figures and lying in a hanging bed while telling a secret to a 1948 painting by Alberto Giacometti. 1. What is special about the Sainsbury Centre? A. It allows visitors to merely view the works. B. It tolerates damage to artworks. C. It encourages a touch on some exhibits. D. It offers free audio tours to visitors. 2. What does the practice with Moore’s sculpture aim to do? A. Get across the artist’s idea. B. Draw visitors’ attention. C. Appeal to viewers’ tastes. D. Build up the artist’s reputation. 3. Why are Tang Dynasty figures mentioned in the last paragraph? A. To illustrate the artworks’ long history. B. To indicate the richness of the centre’s collection. C. To contrast diverse methods of art-interaction. D. To present a non-traditional art-interaction way. 4. What might the author continue talking about? A. Clarification of physical art interaction. B. Advanced methods for art preservation. C. Examples of touch-friendly artworks. D. More innovative ways to engage with art 【答案】1. C 2. A 3. D 4. D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了英国塞恩斯伯里视觉艺术中心打破传统博物馆规则,推出了一项创新项目,允许参观者近距离接触展品,并通过与展品的互动来更深入地欣赏和理解艺术。 1. 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“The Sainsbury Centre recently initiated a groundbreaking new program.

A typical example is the invitation to hug Henry Moore’s 1932 sculpture Mother and Child.(塞恩斯伯里中心最近发起了一项突破性的新项目。该项目打破了观众与艺术之间的传统壁垒,邀请博物馆参观者与展品进行近距离的亲密接触。一个典型的例子是,观众被邀请拥抱亨利・摩尔1932年的雕塑作品《母亲与孩子》。)”可知,该中心的特别之处在于鼓励观众触摸部分展品,打破了“只许看不许摸”的传统规则。故选C。 2. 细节理解题。根据文章第三段““That feeling within you, that feeling of protection, is what Henry was trying to create with this work,” the audio explains.(音频导览解释道:“你内心的这种感觉,这种被保护的感觉,正是亨利试图通过这件作品传达的。”)”以及第四段“The exercise is designed to help visitors realize that art is an emotional state of mind, an idea that Moore himself seemed to agree with.(这项体验旨在帮助参观者认识到,艺术是一种情感的心灵状态,而摩尔本人似乎也认同这一观点。)”可知,触摸摩尔雕塑的体验旨在让观众通过情感共鸣理解艺术家想传达的理念。故选A。 3. 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Usually museums discourage visitors from handling art because oils and dirt on people’s hands can damage the works. People could also accidentally scratch(划伤) or break the art. Cooper acknowledges that allowing people to physically interact with art must be done on a case-by-case basis. “Lots of works of art aren’t designed to be touched,” he says. In those instances, they invite visitors to engage with art in other non-traditional ways. That includes dancing with 1,200-year-old Tang Dynasty figures and lying in a hanging bed while telling a secret to a 1948 painting by Alberto Giacometti.(通常情况下,博物馆不鼓励参观者触碰艺术品,因为人们手上的油脂和污垢会损坏作品,人们还可能不小心划伤或碰碎艺术品。库珀承认,允许人们与艺术品进行身体互动必须视具体情况而定。“很多艺术品并非设计用来触摸的,”他说。在这种情况下,博物馆会邀请参观者以其他非传统方式与艺术互动,例如与1200年前的唐代陶俑“共舞”,或躺在悬挂的床上,向阿尔贝托・贾科梅蒂1948年的一幅画作倾诉秘密。)”可知,提及唐代陶俑是为了举例说明该中心提供的非传统艺术互动方式。故选D。 4. 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“In those instances, they invite visitors to engage with art in other non-traditional ways. That includes dancing with 1,200-year-old Tang Dynasty figures and lying in a hanging bed while telling a secret to a 1948 painting by Alberto Giacometti.(在这种情况下,博物馆会邀请参观者以其他非传统方式与艺术互动,例如与1200年前的唐代陶俑“共舞”,或躺在悬挂的床上,向阿尔贝托・贾科梅蒂1948年的一幅画作倾诉秘密。)”可知,本段首先提出博物馆会邀请参观者以其他非传统方式与艺术互动,然后介绍了“与陶俑共舞”以及“躺在悬挂床上向画作倾诉秘密”等互动方式。由此可推测,作者接下来会讲述其他创新互动方式。故选D。 (24-25高三下·河南·阶段练习)Wildfires fueled by extreme winds have swept across the Pacific Palisades area in Los Angeles County, destroying countless structures and forcing the evacuation (撤离) of more than 30,000 people. As of 9:30 pm ET, more than 2,900 acres have burned, fire officials said. The powerful Santa Ana winds are challenging firefighting efforts. The evacuation order includes more than 10,000 homes and thousands of businesses. Los Angeles County Fire Chief Anthony Marrone said on Tuesday afternoon during a news conference, “We are not out of danger,” warning that the most significant threat will be between 10 pm and 5am PT when the Santa Ana winds will be at their fiercest. Marrone urged people to be ready to evacuate at a moment’s notice overnight. Los Angeles City Councilwoman Traci Park, who represents the area, described the situation as “terrifying”. She urged people to “be packed and ready to go” if people are told to evacuate. Already, tens of thousands of people have been ordered to leave their homes and businesses as the fires are spreading violently into neighborhoods. Park says “it may take a couple of days” to get the situation under control and “it may be some time before people can return to their homes.” As of 9:30 pm EST Tuesday, about 25,000 homes and businesses had their power cut off as crews battle the Palisades Fire. California Gov. Gavin Newsom declared a state of emergency as the fire continued to burn through Los Angeles County and more residents have been ordered to evacuate in the fire zones north and west of Los Angeles. Newsom toured some of the neighborhoods consumed by wildfires. He applauded the efforts of crews to pre-position firefighters, aircraft and other equipment ahead of the predicted firestorm. While this news conference focused on the situation in Los Angeles County, forecasters warned of a potential worsening problem in Orange, San Bernardino and Riverside Counties, just to the south and east. 5. What is the main difficulty faced by firefighters? A. Strong winds spreading fires. B. Limited evacuation routes. C. Vast structural remains removal. D. Lack of public cooperation. 6. What is the primary concern expressed by Marrone and Park? A. Evacuation efforts are being delayed. B. The danger period may extend further. C. The fire is changing direction rapidly. D. Firefighter resources are insufficient. 7. Which word best describes Newsom when he saw crews’ preparations? A. Discouraged. B. Appreciative. C. Dismissive. D. Unexpected. 8. What might the author continue talking about regarding the wildfires? A. Firefighting equipment details. B. Evacuation success stories. C. Impact on nearby counties. D. Residents’ personal experiences. 【答案】5. A 6. B 7. B 8. C 【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。本短文主要讲了洛杉矶县太平洋帕利塞德地区发生大火,火势在强风助燃下蔓延,烧毁无数建筑,3万多人被紧急疏散,以及官方对此采取的一些应对措施。 5. 细节理解题。根据第二段“The powerful Santa Ana winds are challenging firefighting efforts.(强大的圣安娜风给消防工作带来了挑战)”可知,消防员面临的主要困难是强风使火势蔓延。故选A。 6. 细节理解题。根据第二段“Los Angeles County Fire Chief Anthony Marrone said on Tuesday afternoon during a news conference, “We are not out of danger,” warning that the most significant threat will be between 10 pm and 5am PT when the Santa Ana winds will be at their fiercest. Marrone urged people to be ready to evacuate at a moment’s notice overnight.(洛杉矶县消防队长安东尼·马龙在周二下午的新闻发布会上说:“我们还没有脱离危险,”他警告说,最严重的威胁将在太平洋时间晚上10点到凌晨5点之间,那时圣安娜风将达到最猛烈的程度。马龙敦促人们做好准备,在接到通知后立即撤离)”以及第三段“Park says “it may take a couple of days” to get the situation under control and “it may be some time before people can return to their homes.”(Park说,“可能需要几天的时间”来控制局势,“人们可能需要一段时间才能返回家园。”)”可知,Marrone和Park最关心的是危险期可能会进一步延长。故选B。 7. 推理判断题。根据最后一段“He applauded the efforts of crews to pre-position firefighters, aircraft and other equipment ahead of the predicted firestorm.(他赞扬了工作人员在预计的火灾风暴到来之前预先部署消防员、飞机和其他设备的努力)”可知,当纽森看到救援人员的准备工作时,他很感激。故选B。 8. 推理判断题。根据最后一段“While this news conference focused on the situation in Los Angeles County, forecasters warned of a potential worsening problem in Orange, San Bernardino and Riverside Counties, just to the south and east.(虽然这次新闻发布会的重点是洛杉矶县的情况,但预报员警告说,南部和东部的奥兰治县、圣贝纳迪诺县和河滨县的问题可能会恶化)”可知,作者可能会继续谈论野火对附近县的影响。故选C。 文章出处题3篇 【名师点津】 一、解题小妙招 “推断文章出处”类试题应从文章的内容或结构入手来判断其出处: 研究报告类文章(a research paper):此类文章重点介绍科技领域最新研究成果:新发现、新思想、新发明。第一段概括介绍,然后分段陈述。文章结构严谨,语言规范,句式复杂。 图书评论类文章(a book review):书评、影评类文章涉及到作者介绍,内容梗概、人物性格评论,写作特色以及个人好恶等内容。 广告英语类文章(an advertisement):现代生活中广告无处不在,英语阅读理解也是如此。有时会考查微型海报、通知、启示、时刻表、图表等。 科普杂志类文章(a science magazine):此类文章内容广泛,涉及到日常生活习惯、健康饮食、太空与海洋、创造与发明、计算机发展、人类未来、动物世界等。其重点是普及科学知识,提高科学素养。 教材课本类文章(a geography textbook):此类文章内容比较正式,语言规范,往往涉及到学科术语、专业性词汇、概念、理论等。 课件展示类文章(a class presentation):此类文章往往紧扣主题,口语性强、语言活泼,形式新颖,伴随有图片、图表、文字介绍等信息。 网络网页类文章(an Internet page):此类文章往往会提供超级链接标志,如For more information, please click here. 二、零失误小妙招 1.做题留痕,依据题干在原文圈划答题区间; 2.划掉错项,去伪存真,快速作答提升效率; 3.错题反思,专用笔记本记录错因举一反三。 【高考真题】 (2023新课标II卷)Reading Art: Art for Book Lovers is a celebration of an everyday object — the book, represented here in almost three hundred artworks from museums around the world. The image of the reader appears throughout history, in art made long before books as we now know them came into being. In artists’ representations of books and reading, we see moments of shared humanity that go beyond culture and time. In this “book of books,” artworks are selected and arranged in a way that emphasizes these connections between different eras and cultures. We see scenes of children learning to read at home or at school, with the book as a focus for relations between the generations. Adults are portrayed (描绘) alone in many settings and poses —absorbed in a volume, deep in thought or lost in a moment of leisure. These scenes may have been painted hundreds of years ago, but they record moments we can all relate to. Books themselves may be used symbolically in paintings to demonstrate the intellect (才智), wealth or faith of the subject. Before the wide use of the printing press, books were treasured objects and could be works of art in their own right. More recently, as books have become inexpensive or even throwaway, artists have used them as the raw material for artworks — transforming covers, pages or even complete volumes into paintings and sculptures. Continued developments in communication technologies were once believed to make the printed page outdated. From a 21st-century point of view, the printed book is certainly ancient, but it remains as interactive as any battery-powered e-reader. To serve its function, a book must be activated by a user: the cover opened, the pages parted, the contents reviewed, perhaps notes written down or words underlined. And in contrast to our increasingly networked lives where the information we consume is monitored and tracked, a printed book still offers the chance of a wholly private, “off-line” activity. 8. Where is the text most probably taken from? A. An introduction to a book. B. An essay on the art of writing. C. A guidebook to a museum. D. A review of modern paintings. 9. What are the selected artworks about? A. Wealth and intellect. B. Home and school. C. Books and reading. D. Work and leisure. 10. What do the underlined words “relate to” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Understand. B. Paint. C. Seize. D. Transform. 11. What does the author want to say by mentioning the e-reader? A. The printed book is not totally out of date. B. Technology has changed the way we read. C. Our lives in the 21st century are networked. D. People now rarely have the patience to read. 【答案】8. A9. C10. A11. A 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了印刷书籍和阅读对人类的重要意义。 8.推理判断题。根据全文内容尤其是第一段第一句"Reading Art: Art for Book Lovers is a celebration. . . three hundred artworks from museums around the world"可知,《阅读艺术:书籍爱好者的艺术》这本书里展示了来自世界各地博物馆的近300件艺术品,本文主要是对该书内容的介绍。故可以推知,本文最有可能摘自一本书的序言。故选A。 9.细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句中的"In artists' representations of books and reading"可知,被选中的艺术品强调的是图书和阅读,故C项正确。 10.词句猜测题。根据画线词上文“artworks are selected and arranged in a way that emphasizes these connections between different eras and cultures. We see scenes of children learning to read at home or at school, with the book as a focus for relations between the generations. (艺术品的选择和排列方式强调了不同时代和文化之间的联系。我们看到孩子们在家里或学校学习阅读的场景,这本书是几代人之间关系的焦点)”以及“These scenes may have been painted hundreds of years ago, but they record moments (这些场景可能是数百年前绘制的,但它们记录了一些时刻)”可推知,此处指书籍是人类之间相互联系和理解的纽带,故与画线短语“relate to”意思最相近的为A项“理解、认识到”。故选A。 11.推理判断题。通过文章最后一段“it remains as interactive as any battery-powered e-reader (它仍然像任何电池供电的电子阅读器一样具有互动性)”以及“printed book still offers the chance of a wholly private, “off-line” activity (印刷书籍仍然提供了完全私人的“离线”活动的机会)”可推知,本文作者提到电子阅读器想表达的是印刷书籍并没有完全过时。故选A。 (2022新课标I卷) Grading Policies for Introduction to Literature Grading Scale 90-100, A; 80-89, B; 70-79, C; 60-69, D; Below 60, E.

Ultra-processed foods (UPF) have become increasingly popular and range from chips to microwave meals and even bread. Even just a casual glance at supermarket shelves reveals a collection of UPF offerings in delicate and attractive packaging. Besides their affordability, UPF not only offer time-saving convenience, but also momentary satisfaction filled with fat, sugar, salt and additives (添加剂). After all, who can resist enjoying a tasty snack when lost in a football game or an exciting new TV series? Although much is discussed about the direct negative impact of these products on our health, including obesity, heart diseases and diabetes, little has been said about the impacts of UPF on the environment. The most serious environmental impacts of UPF-rich diets mainly come from the post-farm stages, especially from the final product creation and packaging processes. One specific additive that has the most environmental impact is palm oil. Palm oil is responsible for deforestation of some of the world’s big forests, which have diverse animals and plants. It is one of the world’s most consumed vegetable oils that can be found in half of our food. The massive waste generated by over-packaged UPF is another factor to consider. Their plastic packaging doesn’t degrade in landfills or in nature and has a dramatic impact on soil health and life in the sea. One recent study published in Nature Sustainability demonstrates that UPF processing and packaging stages have the greatest environmental impacts of the whole system and are a major source of environmental waste worldwide. The environmental impact of ultra-processed foods cannot be ignored any longer. While producers must take action, it is our growing awareness of what we buy and how it is produced that drives real change. By choosing wisely — whether by rejecting heavily processed options or supporting sustainable brands — we exercise the power to shape a better food system, a responsibility we must embrace. 1. What can be learned about UPF from the first paragraph? A. They are primarily consumed during casual leisure activities. B. They are carefully produced to be environmentally friendly. C. They are filled with various kinds of healthy added nutrients. D. They are favored by many for their fancy packages and flavors. 2. Why was palm oil  introduced in the text? A. To compare it with some other vegetable oils. B. To explain UPF’s harmful environmental effects. C. To show its relationship with animals and plants. D. To discuss factors of UPF’s packaging-related pollution. 3. What does the author think of the role we play in fighting UPF? A. Tiny. B. Essential. C. Replaceable. D. Limited. 4. Where is the text probably taken from? A. An environmental magazine. B. A public health journal. C. A food industry report. D. An advertisement brochure. 【答案】1. D 2. B 3. B 4. A 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要探讨过度加工食品(UPF)的流行原因,及其对环境的负面影响,并呼吁消费者通过明智选择推动食品体系改善。 1. 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Ultra-processed foods (UPF) have become increasingly popular and range from chips to microwave meals and even bread. Even just a casual glance at supermarket shelves reveals a collection of UPF offerings in delicate and attractive packaging. Besides their affordability, UPF not only offer time-saving convenience, but also momentary satisfaction filled with fat, sugar, salt and additives. After all, who can resist enjoying a tasty snack...(过度加工食品(UPF)越来越受欢迎,从薯片到微波炉餐点甚至面包都有。随便扫一眼超市货架,就能看到一系列包装精致、诱人的UPF产品。除了价格亲民,UPF不仅省时方便,还能带来富含脂肪、糖、盐和添加剂的即时满足感。毕竟,谁能抗拒在看足球比赛或精彩新剧时享用美味零食呢?)”可知,UPF因精致的包装和美味的口感受到很多人青睐。故选D项。 2. 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“One specific additive that has the most environmental impact is palm oil. Palm oil is responsible for deforestation of some of the world’s big forests, which have diverse animals and plants.(对环境影响最大的一种特定添加剂是棕榈油。棕榈油导致了世界上一些拥有多样化动植物的大型森林遭到砍伐)”可知,文中提及棕榈油,是为了具体举例说明UPF对环境的有害影响(因生产棕榈油导致森林砍伐)。故选B项。 3. 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“While producers must take action, it is our growing awareness of what we buy and how it is produced that drives real change. By choosing wisely — whether by rejecting heavily processed options or supporting sustainable brands — we exercise the power to shape a better food system, a responsibility we must embrace.(虽然生产商必须采取行动,但推动真正变革的是我们对所购买产品及其生产方式的日益认识。通过明智的选择——无论是拒绝重加工食品还是支持可持续品牌——我们行使了塑造更好的食品系统的权力,这是我们必须承担的责任)”可知,作者认为消费者在对抗UPF带来的问题中扮演着关键角色,作用至关重要。故选B项。 4. 推理判断题。通读全文,文章核心围绕“过度加工食品(UPF)对环境的负面影响”展开,从UPF的包装、添加剂(棕榈油)等方面分析其环境危害,最后呼吁消费者推动改变,主题与“环境”紧密相关,因此最可能取自环境杂志。故选A项。 (25-26高三上·陕西咸阳·阶段练习)J. D. Salinger’s The Catcher in the Rye remains a classic novel of adolescent rebellion and isolation, connecting with generations since its 1951 publication. Through the voice of Holden Caulfield, a teenager kicked out of prep school, Salinger captures the raw emotions of youth — anger, confusion, and a desperate search for realness in a world he dismisses as “phoney”. The novel’s lasting power lies not in grand adventure but in its intimate portrayal of Holden’s internal struggles, which reflect universal teenage experience. Holden’s journey through New York City acts as a psychological exploration. He criticizes the hypocrisy (虚伪) of the adult world, mocks social expectations, and fantasizes about escaping to a simpler life “away from all the nonsense.” Yet beneath his cynical (愤世嫉俗的) appearance lies vulnerability. Symbolism deepens the novel’s exploration of innocence and loss. The repeated image of the “catcher in the rye” — Holden’s fantasy of saving children from falling off a cliff — symbolizes his wish to preserve childhood innocence. His repeated visits to the Museum of Natural History, where displays stay unchanged, reveal his longing for stability. The ducks in Central Park’s Lake, which mysteriously disappear each winter, mirror Holden’s anxiety about life’s uncertainties. Even the novel’s preface as “authentic adolescent voice”, serves as a rebellion against social norms, making Holden’s voice feel startlingly real. Though set in the 1950s, The Catcher in the Rye continues to speak to modern teenagers. In an era dominated by social media and artificial identities, Holden’s hatred of hypocrisy feels strikingly relatable. Unlike today’s digital interactions, Holden’s handwritten letters and face-to-face encounters in the novel emphasize the original pure nature of human connection. Salinger’s refusal to romanticize adolescence — offering no easy answers to pain — challenges readers to confront their own struggles with growing up. The novel endures not as a relic but as a timeless conversation about the confusion and struggles of youth. 5. Where is the text most probably taken from? A. A news report about modern education. B. A literary journal on figures of speech. C. A publisher’s preface for a special edition. D. A psychological study on teenage rebellion. 6. What does the underlined word “phoney” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Fake. B. Dangerous. C. Traditional. D. Complicated. 7. According to paragraph 3, what does the image “catcher in the rye” represent? A. Holden’s admiration for rural life. B. Holden’s desire to escape society. C. Holden’s criticism of educational systems. D. Holden’s wish to protect childhood purity. 8. What does Salinger agree with according to the last paragraph? A. Adolescence deserves romanticizing. B. Genuine human connections are vital. C. Social media fosters sincere connections. D. Teenagers require straightforward life solutions. 【答案】5. C 6. A 7. D 8. B 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章通过分析《麦田里的守望者》的核心主题、象征手法及其跨时代共鸣,向读者阐释作品的文学价值与持久影响力。 5. 推理判断题。通读全文,尤其是第一段中“J. D. Salinger’s The Catcher in the Rye remains a classic novel of adolescent rebellion and isolation, connecting with generations since its 1951 publication. (J. D.塞林格的《麦田里的守望者》自1951年出版以来,一直是一部关于青少年叛逆和孤独的经典小说,与几代人联系在一起。)”和最后一段中“The novel endures not as a relic but as a timeless conversation about the confusion and struggles of youth. (这部小说不是作为遗物而存在,而是作为一场关于青年的困惑和挣扎的永恒对话。)”可知,文章以介绍《麦田里的守望者》的核心主题、象征手法和时代意义为主,首段点明这是一本“经典小说”,末段强调这是一场“永恒对话”。由此推知,文章应该是这本小说的特别版序言,为读者提供背景解读和作品价值提炼。故选C项。 6. 词句猜测题。根据画线词的上文“Salinger captures the raw emotions of youth — anger, confusion, and a desperate search for realness in a world (塞林格捕捉到了年轻人的原始情感——愤怒、困惑和对世界真实性的绝望追求)”可知,年轻人在这个世界中绝望地寻找真实,说明世界被他们斥为“虚假”的,画线词意为“虚假的”,与Fake意思一致。故选A项。 7. 细节理解题。根据第三段中“The repeated image of the “catcher in the rye” — Holden’s fantasy of saving children from falling off a cliff — symbolizes his wish to preserve childhood innocence. (“麦田里的守望者”这一反复出现的形象——霍尔顿关于拯救孩子免于坠崖的幻想——象征了他保护童年纯真的愿望。)”可知,“麦田里的守望者”形象代表霍尔顿保护童年纯真的愿望。故选D项。 8. 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“In an era dominated by social media and artificial identities, Holden’s hatred of hypocrisy feels strikingly relatable. Unlike today’s digital interactions, Holden’s handwritten letters and face-to-face encounters in the novel emphasize the original pure nature of human connection. (在一个由社交媒体和虚假身份主导的时代,霍尔顿对虚伪的憎恨让人产生了强烈的共鸣。与今天的数字互动不同,霍尔顿在小说中手写的信件和面对面的接触强调了人类联系的原始纯粹本质。)”可知,作者对比数字时代的虚假社交,突出塞林格的小说对真实人际关系的呼唤。因此,塞林格会认同“真诚的人际关系至关重要”。故选B项。 学科网(北京)股份有限公司 $
