Unexpected Benefits of Volunteering as a Family
Are you looking for a way to bring your family together? Hoping to find a hobby that can be shared by both the little ones and adults? 36 You may know the “feel-good” emotions that come with helping others, but there are even more unexpected ways volunteering will positively affect the whole family.
●You’ll feel like you have more time.
People often feel they are too busy to volunteer. Yet, research has found that giving your time to community causes actually makes you feel like you have more of it. 37
●You can live longer if you volunteer regularly.
38 Washington University found that adults 55 and older who volunteered had better memory and maintained overall health longer than others their age. Volunteers are also more likely to look after their own health and are more focused on adding physical activity into their lives.
● 39
Volunteering during teenage years has been linked to some major positive effects such as improved grades and increased self-confidence. These effects aren’t just short-term but have been proved to affect a teen’s well-being in the years to come.
●You’ll have more time with family.
Families who volunteer together have the unique experience of working toward a common goal. 40 Everyone brings something unique to the table and can connect with each other in a new way. And, there are tasks for every age and ability, so all your children can feel proud of their work.
A. Helping the community lowers rates of depression.
B. Volunteering as a family may be just the thing you need.
C. Volunteering has a lifelong effect on kids and teenagers.
D. Volunteering can be the first step in breaking down prejudice.
E. For adults, volunteering can provide significant physical health benefits.
F. You may even learn that your kid has a talent you didn’t know about before.
G. Volunteering makes you feel capable and inspires you to make the most of each day.
【答案】36. B 37. G38. E39. C40. F
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍家庭共同参与志愿活动带来的意外好处,包括感觉时间更充裕、促进身体健康、对青少年产生长远积极影响以及增进家庭互动等。
36.根据上文“Are you looking for a way to bring your family together? Hoping to find a hobby that can be shared by both the little ones and adults? (你在寻找让家人团聚的方法吗?希望找到一个大人和小孩都能参与的爱好吗)”可知,此处以提问方式引出家庭共同活动的需求,空格处需给出解决方案。B选项“Volunteering as a family may be just the thing you need. (全家一起做志愿者可能正是你需要的)”中的“Volunteering as a family”直接回应“bring your family together”和“shared hobby”,引出下文对家庭志愿活动好处的具体说明,符合语境。故选B项。
37.根据段落主题句“You’ll feel like you have more time. (你会觉得自己有更多时间)”及上文“Yet, research has found that giving your time to community causes actually makes you feel like you have more of it. (然而,研究发现,把时间投入到社区事业中实际上会让你觉得自己拥有更多时间)”可推知,设空处需解释“感觉时间更多”的原因。G选项“Volunteering makes you feel capable and inspires you to make the most of each day. (志愿活动让你感觉有能力,并激励你充分利用每一天)”中的“makes you feel capable”和“inspires you to make the most of each day”从心理层面解释了为何志愿活动会让人产生时间更充裕的感觉,与“feel like you have more time”形成因果关联。故选G项。
38.根据下文“Washington University found that adults 55 and older who volunteered had better memory and maintained overall health longer than others their age. (华盛顿大学研究发现,55 岁及以上的成年人中,参与志愿服务的人群比同龄人拥有更优的记忆力,且能更长久地维持整体健康状态)”可知,本段聚焦志愿活动对成年人身体健康的益处。E选项“For adults, volunteering can provide significant physical health benefits. (对成年人来说,志愿活动可以带来显著的身体健康益处)”中的“For adults”对应“adults 55 and older”,“physical health benefits”概括了“better memory”和“maintained overall health”,与本段的主题吻合。故选E项。
39.根据下文“Volunteering during teenage years has been linked to some major positive effects such as improved grades and increased self-confidence. These effects aren’t just short-term but have been proved to affect teen’s well-being in the years to come. (青少年时期参与志愿服务已被证实与一些重要的积极影响相关,例如成绩提升和自信心增强。这些影响并非只是短期的,而是已被证明会在未来数年持续影响青少年的身心健康)”可知,本段主题为志愿活动对青少年的长期影响。C选项“Volunteering has a lifelong effect on kids and teenagers. (志愿活动对儿童和青少年有终身影响)”中的“lifelong effect”对应“affect teen’s well-being in the years to come”,“on kids and teenagers”覆盖段落讨论的年龄群体,符合段落主旨。故选C项。
40.根据上文“Families who volunteer together have the unique experience of working toward a common goal. (一起做志愿者的家庭有朝着共同目标努力的独特经历)”及下文“Everyone brings something unique to the table and can connect with each other in a new way. (每个人都能带来独特的东西,并能以新的方式相互联系)”可推知,设空处需补充家庭志愿活动中成员间的具体互动。F选项“You may even learn that your kid has talent you didn’t know about before. (你甚至可能会发现你的孩子有你以前不知道的天赋)”中的“learn that your kid has talent”体现“Everyone brings something unique”,且“in a new way”对应“发现孩子未知天赋”的新颖体验,衔接上下文。故选F项。

一、定位段首——确定是“主题句”还是“过渡句”
技巧一、确定段落小标题
在一些文章中,有些段落由小标题引领,而设空处恰好是小标题的位置。其呈现形式应和其他小标题相同,认真阅读设空处后的段落内容就能推断出小标题。
考例再现:(2023·全国甲卷)
• 39 .
So many of us have the belief that being comfortable is the only state we will tolerate, and when we experience something outside of our comfort zone, we get impatient about the circumstances. You should learn to say to yourself, “40.This is merely uncomfortable,not intolerable.” You'll then gradually become more patient.
A.Find your causes
B.Start with small tasks
C.Accept the uncomfortable
D.All this adds up to a state of hurry
E.It can also help us practice more patience
F.This is merely uncomfortable, not intolerable
G.They're all situations where we could use a little extra patience
深度剖析:设空处为小标题。根据本段中的“So many of us have the belief that being comfortable is the only state we will tolerate,and when we experience something outside of our comfort zone,we get impatient about the circumstances.” 可知,本段的主旨与接受令人不舒适的事物相关,C选项中的uncomfortable对应本段中的comfortable,故C选项符合语境。答案为C。
技巧二:确定段落主题句
正确选项要有概括性,通常与空格后的一两句在内容上连贯且符合逻辑,在意义上衔接紧密。
考例再现:(2022·新课标Ⅱ卷)
Writing an essay is a difficult process for most people. However, the process can be made easier if you learn to practice three simple techniques.
36 When you are first trying to think of ideas for an essay,put your pen to your paper and write nonstop for ten or fifteen minutes without letting your pen leave the paper. Stay loose and free. 37.Let your pen follow the waves of thought. Don't worry about grammar or spelling. Even though this technique won't work for everyone,it helps many people get a good store of ideas to draw on.
A.Make sure your handwriting is neat.
B.Let your pen follow the waves of thought.
C.The second draft of the essay should be better.
D.First of all,learn the technique of nonstop writing.
E.Too many writers try to get their drafts right the first time.
F.Many beginning writers don't leave enough space to revise.
G.Then you can print out a fresh draft,again setting your text on triple-space.
深度剖析:分析文章结构可知,空格处是本段的主题句。由空格后的“When you are first...leave the paper.”可知,本段主要讲的是要学会不间断地写这一方法。答案为D。
技巧三、确定承上启下句
当非首段的首句设空时,设空处也有可能是承上启下句。这要求考生既要熟悉上一段的内容,尤其是上一段的结尾句的内容,又要结合本段内容,使所选答案能够无缝衔接两段内容。
考例再现:(2024·新课标Ⅰ卷)
I keep two reference books close-by on my desk: dictionary and thesaurus(同义词词典). I don't trust my laptop's spellchecker. 37.It takes no account of the context. Of course, these days there are plenty of online dictionaries and thesauruses, but I'm old-fashioned enough to prefer a hard cover and pages I can leaf through with my fingers. I use the Concise Oxford Dictionary and the Collins The saurus.
38 It should give you a precise definition of each word, thus differentiating it from other words whose meanings are similar, but not identical. It will also usually show how the word is pronounced.
A.I don't often use this dictionary.
B.It takes no account of the context.
C.But I still don't want to replace them.
D.But a dictionary can be a pleasure to read.
E.Of course, a dictionary is not only for spelling.
F.That means good grammar and no spelling mistakes.
G.Dictionaries don't always give you enough information.
深度剖析:空格后的“It should give you a precise definition of each word, thus differentiating it from other words whose meanings are similar, but not identical. It will also usually show how the word is pronounced.”说明了词典的功能。E选项“Ofcourse,adictionaryisnotonlyforspelling.”提到了词典不会只有拼写功能,且E项中的spelling与上一段中的“I don't trust my laptop's spell checker.”相呼应,承上启下。答案为E。
二、定位段中——细辨是“过渡句”还是“细节句”
技巧一、细辨过渡句
通常考查空格处与前后句子之间的逻辑关系和衔接关系。常见的逻辑关系有总分关系、解释关系、转折关系、因果关系、递进关系、并列关系和例证关系等。
考题再现:
(2022·全国甲卷)Some of these cultural dining etiquette rules may seem random and strange, but they are important in various countries.40, the more comfortable you'll begin to feel with its foreign cultural practices.
A.The more friends you make in your lifetime
B.The more time you spend in any given country
C.Mexicans consider it inappropriate to eat with utensils
D.Don't get caught making an embarrassing mistake at a restaurant
E.It's a good sign for the chef if you make a mess around your plate
F.Never stick them upright in your food or cross them as you use them
G.It may seem like a simple request to ask for salt and pepper at a meal
深度剖析:根据空格后的the more comfortable you'll begin to feel with its foreign cultural practices可推知,你在一个国家待得越久,就会越习惯当地的文化习俗。此处是“the+比较级, the+比较级”结构。答案为B。
技巧二、细辨细节句
空格处内容通常补充前文的具体事实、事例和说明。
考题再现:(2022·全国甲卷)
Hands or Utensils(餐具)
In India and the Middle East, it's considered very rude to eat with your left hand.People in France expect you to eat with a utensil in each hand. 38 , instead preferring to use their hands.In Chile, you may never touch any food with your fingers. People in Thailand generally use their forks only to push food onto their spoons.
A.The more friends you make in your lifetime
B.The more time you spend in any given country
C.Mexicans consider it inappropriate to eat with utensils
D.Don't get caught making an embarrassing mistake at a restaurant
E.It's a good sign for the chef if you make a mess around your plate
F.Never stick them upright in your food or cross them as you use them
G.It may seem like a simple request to ask for salt and pepper at a meal
深度剖析:根据本段小标题HandsorUtensils可知,本段主要讲述的是用手和用餐具吃饭的问题。根据空格前的“In India and the Middle East, it's considered very rude to eat with your left hand. People in France expect you to eat with autensilin each hand.”以及空格后的instead preferring to use their hands可知,设空处讲到的应该也是某个国家的用餐方式。答案为C。
三、定位段尾——斟酌是“总结句”、“过渡句”还是“补充信息句”
技巧一、确定总结句
设空处在段尾时,通常是结论性、概括性语句,是对上文的概括总结。往往正确选项中会出现表示结论或总结的关键词,如in a word、thus、 hence、 in short、to sum up、therefore、 as a result等。
考题再现:(2023·新课标Ⅱ卷)
Paint often and paint from life. There's no better way to improve than to put in those brush miles. Whether you paint still lifes, portraits, or landscapes, paint from life as much as possible. 37
A.Get out of your comfort zone.
B.Make career plans and set goals.
C.Don't throw away your beginner art.
D.Share your work if you feel comfortable doing so.
E.You'll hit roadblocks, and you'll feel discouraged at times.
F.Evaluate your performance and, if needed, redefine your role.
G.You'll develop that painting muscle memory that only comes with repetition.
深度剖析:设空处位于段尾,是对本段的总结。根据空格前的内容可知,本段建议要经常练习绘画。G项符合语境,且选项中的repetition与空格前的often相呼应。答案为G。
技巧二、确定过渡句
设空处在非尾段的段尾时,也有可能是考查承上启下的过渡句。
考例再现:(2021·浙江1月卷)
You run into the grocery store to pick up one bottle of water.You get what you need, head to the front, and choose the line that looks fastest.
You chose wrong.People who you swear got in other lines long after you are already checked out and off to the parking lot. 31
It turns out, it's just math working against you; chances are, the other line really is faster.
A.Why does this always seem to happen to you?
B.So why don't most places encourage serpentine lines?
C.Some of them may have stood in a queue for almost an hour.
D.The chances of your line being the fastest are only one in three.
E.How high is the probability that you are in the fastest waiting line?
F.With three registers, this method is much faster than the traditional approach.
G.But sometimes, as on a Sunday afternoon, the system gets particularly busy.
深度剖析:空格前描述了“你”排队结账时,发现自己排的队伍总是比别的队伍慢这一现象,下文“It turns out, it's just math working against you ; chances are, the other line really is faster.”点明了结论,所以空格处应是对该现象提出的疑问。结合选项来看,只有A项的内容与结论的内容相匹配,起到了衔接上下文的作用。答案为A。
技巧三、确定补充信息句
设空处在段尾时,也有可能是对上文内容进行补充说明,这时要选择补充性的语句。
考例再现:(2022·全国乙卷)
•Set a regular date
Long-lasting friendships share the characteristic that both sides equally contact(联系) and share with one another. With busy schedules, squeezing in phone calls can be a challenge. 36 .
A.Remember important dates
B.Compensate by writing letters
C.It is also helpful for you to be a friendship keeper
D.Try to find a time that works for both of you and stick to it
E.Friends need to talk about their preferred methods of communication
F.It is easy to have a sense of connectedness through social media
G.You may be the friend who left or the one who was left behind
深度剖析:根据上文中的“With busy schedules, squeezing in phone calls can be a challenge.”可知,双方都很忙碌,很难有时间给对方打电话。设空处应给出解决没时间打电话这个问题的方法。答案为D。

变式一、志愿及身心健康话题高考真题
(2025·浙江·高考真题)One of the most common mistakes in communication is trying to do too much. 1 There’s no value in delivering any kind of communication, whether written, spoken, formal, or informal, if the message doesn’t come across clearly. Being clear and brief — while maintaining interest and including everything your listeners need to know — is a high-level communication skill.
Here are some tips worth following in order to communicate more effectively.
Keep your audience in mind.
Your audience will naturally be more interested and engaged when you tailor your communications to their interests. 2 This will engage their desire to understand and interact with the information.
Don’t use ten words when one will do.
Even the most engaged and committed audience will eventually get bored. Keeping your message simple and clear will make it easier for people to understand. 3 However, they’re hearing it for the first time. Keep it simple.
4
If you’ve ever worked as an instructor, manager, trainer or coach, you’ll know that there are few better ways to learn new information than to teach it. Ask the audience to contribute their ideas or to take a role in explaining new concepts and policies to others. Allow them to lead discussions and meetings to develop their communication skills.
Consider the best method to deliver your message.
If the information you’re communicating isn’t urgent, consider sending an email. Written communication will give your audience more time to review it, think it over, and follow up with questions. 5
Building effective communication skills takes time, but the effects are worth the effort.
A. Be patient.
B. Get the audience involved.
C. The best messages are often simple.
D. Speak directly to what matters to them.
E. You may be surprised by what your listeners offer.
F. It will also give them a handy record to refer back to.
G. As the speaker, you already know what you’re going to say.
【答案】1. C 2. D 3. G 4. B 5. F
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一些更有效地进行沟通的技巧。
1. 上文“One of the most common mistakes in communication is trying to do too much.(沟通中最常见的错误之一就是试图做得太多)”指出“做得太多”是沟通中易犯的错误,C选项“The best messages are often simple.(最好的信息往往是简单的)”承接上文,明确正确沟通方法,即不要“做得太多”,要避免复杂,追求简单,句中“simple”与上文“too much”形成对比。故选C项。
2. 上文“Your audience will naturally be more interested and engaged when you tailor your communications to their interests.(当你根据受众的兴趣来调整你的沟通内容时,他们自然会更感兴趣、更投入)”强调要迎合受众兴趣,D选项“Speak directly to what matters to them.(直接谈论对他们重要的事情)”进一步说明了具体做法,即直接针对受众关心的事情进行交流,与上文逻辑一致。故选D项。
3. 下文“However, they’re hearing it for the first time.(然而,他们是第一次听到这些)”与设空句之间是转折关系。G选项“As the speaker, you already know what you’re going to say.(作为演讲者,你已经知道你要说什么了)”与下文构成转折,演讲者自己熟悉内容,但听众是初次接触,同时,句中“what you’re going to say”与下文中指示代词“it”构成指代关系,上下文逻辑连贯。故选G项。
4. 下文“If you’ve ever worked as an instructor, manager, trainer or coach, you’ll know that there are few better ways to learn new information than to teach it. Ask the audience to contribute their ideas or to take a role in explaining new concepts and policies to others.(如果你曾经当过导师、经理、培训师或教练,你就会知道,没有比教别人更好的学习新信息的方法了。让听众贡献他们的想法,或者让他们扮演向他人解释新概念和政策的角色)”建议让受众参与其中,B选项“Get the audience involved.(让受众参与进来)”能概括这部分内容,适合作段首小标题。故选B项。
5. 上文“If the information you’re communicating isn’t urgent, consider sending an email. Written communication will give your audience more time to review it, think it over, and follow up with questions.(如果你传达的信息不紧急,考虑发电子邮件。书面沟通会给你的受众更多时间来复习、思考,并跟进提问)”说明了发邮件这种书面沟通的好处,F选项“It will also give them a handy record to refer back to.(它还会给他们提供一个方便查阅的记录)”进一步补充了发邮件的另一个好处,与上文逻辑紧密。故选F项。
(2023·北京·高考真题)It’s a joyful and stressful time of year in the United States for students and their families as they make decisions about where to attend college. Families often turn to rankings systems to help make a decision. 1
When I talk to families as a scholar of higher education, they’re often surprised that teaching excellence is not counted in rankings. 2
Emerging research suggests that courses in lower-ranked universities, on average, scored higher on teaching than courses in higher-ranked universities. 3 The absence of teaching excellence from the rankings is surprising given the link between high-quality teaching and student success. Quality teaching is one of the most important predictors of a wide range of college outcomes.
Rankings, however, are only one reason why a low value is placed on teaching in higher education. Administrators often don’t view teaching excellence as a way to increase enrolment (注册) or funding. 4 Research shows that the more time instructors spend on teaching, the lower their salary. What is the result? Many instructors continue to teach using traditional lectures, which lead to lower success rates.
5 Nevertheless, not much will change until schools with high-quality teaching are rewarded with more resources, higher rankings and increased enrolments. In the long term, universities, organisations that rank schools, and others should work to make teaching a valued, core part of the mission.
What should students and their families do? They should give strong consideration to universities where high-quality teaching is valued, even though the schools may be ranked lower.
A. Higher education has achieved its true potential.
B. Therefore, it’s not highly valued in hiring or promotion.
C. Quality teaching has been an important reputation-building factor.
D. However, the rankings ignore a critical factor: the quality of teaching.
E. Efforts to improve teaching at the university level have recently emerged.
F. They’re even more surprised at how teaching is undervalued by universities.
G. In fact, universities often shift emphasis from teaching to other ranking factors.
【答案】1. D 2. F 3. G 4. B 5. E
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要就如何选择高校提供了一些建议。
1. 根据空前内容“It’s a joyful and stressful time of year in the United States for students and their families as they make decisions about where to attend college. Families often turn to rankings systems to help make a decision.(对于美国的学生和他们的家人来说,这是一年中既快乐又紧张的时刻,因为他们要决定去哪里上大学。家庭经常求助于排名系统来帮助做决定。)”可知,美国的学生和家人们在决定去哪儿上大学时,经常求助于排名系统。而根据下文第三段“Emerging research suggests that courses in lower-ranked universities, on average, scored higher on teaching than courses in higher-ranked universities. (最新的研究表明,排名较低的大学的课程在教学方面的平均得分高于排名较高的大学的课程。)”可推断出,本文主要讲述的是排名方面出现的问题。选项D“However, the rankings ignore a critical factor: the quality of teaching.(然而,排名忽略了一个关键因素:教学质量。)”延续上文内容,指出大学排名存在的问题;而根据下文内容也可以推断,排名中存在的问题是教学质量被忽略。故选D。
2. 根据空前内容“When I talk to families as a scholar of higher education, they’re often surprised that teaching excellence is not counted in rankings.(作为一名研究高等教育的学者,当我与一些家庭交谈时,他们常常惊讶地发现,优秀的教学水平并没有被纳入排名。)”可知,大学排名中优秀的教学水平并没有被纳入排名让人们觉得很惊讶。选项F“They’re even more surprised at how teaching is undervalued by universities.(更让他们惊讶的是,大学竟然低估了教学的价值。)”延续上文内容,指的都是大学排名忽略教学质量。其中“more surprised”和上文的“surprised”保持一致。故选F。
3. 空前内容“Emerging research suggests that courses in lower-ranked universities, on average, scored higher on teaching than courses in higher-ranked universities.(最新的研究表明,排名较低的大学的课程在教学方面的平均得分高于排名较高的大学的课程。)”以及空后内容“The absence of teaching excellence from the rankings is surprising given the link between high-quality teaching and student success. Quality teaching is one of the most important predictors of a wide range of college outcomes.(考虑到高质量教学与学生成功之间的联系,排名中没有优秀教学令人惊讶。优质教学是衡量大学成绩的最重要因素之一。)”讲述的都是大学排名中没有考虑到教学。选项G“In fact, universities often shift emphasis from teaching to other ranking factors.(事实上,大学经常把重点从教学转移到其他排名因素上。)”与上下文内容相一致,故选G。
4. 根据空前内容“Rankings, however, are only one reason why a low value is placed on teaching in higher education. Administrators often don’t view teaching excellence as a way to increase enrolment (注册) or funding.(然而,排名只是高等教育中对教学重视程度较低的一个原因。管理者通常不会将卓越的教学视为增加入学率或资金的一种方式。)”可知,上文分析了教学不被纳入排名的原因,该空应该讲其后果。选项B“Therefore, it’s not highly valued in hiring or promotion.(因此,它在招聘或晋升中不受重视。)”是上文内容的延续,正因为管理人员通常不把卓越的教学视为增加入学率或增加资金的一种方式,所以教学在招聘和晋升中不受重视。故选B。
5. 根据下文内容“Nevertheless, not much will change until schools with high-quality teaching are rewarded with more resources, higher rankings and increased enrolments. In the long term, universities, organisations that rank schools, and others should work to make teaching a valued, core part of the mission.(尽管如此,在拥有高质量教学的学校获得更多资源、更高排名和增加入学人数之前,不会有太大变化。从长远来看,大学、学校排名组织和其他机构应该努力使教学成为使命的一个有价值的核心部分。)”可知,此处算是站在大学的角度,提出如何把教学当成他们的首要核心任务。根据“Nevertheless”可知,空处内容和下文内容存在转折关系。选项E“Efforts to improve teaching at the university level have recently emerged.(在最近,努力改进教学水平的现象已经出现了。)”与下文形成转折,旨在说明,促使教学成为核心任务的艰巨性和重要性。故选E。
(2022·全国乙卷·高考真题)Friendship needs care and attention to keep it in good health. Here are five ways to sustain (保持) long-distance friendships.
·Set a regular date
Long-lasting friendships share the characteristic that both sides equally contact (联系) and share with one another. With busy schedules, squeezing in phone calls can be a challenge. 1 .
·More isn’t always merrier
Make sure you have communicated with your friend about how frequently each of you wants to be contacted and what method works best for you both. 2 . There are alternatives to constant written communication, such as leaving voice messages or having a group chat.
·Practise empathy (共情)
3 . The friend who is remaining needs to be sensitive to all the additional time demands placed on the friend who has moved. The one in the new environment should be sympathetic to the fact that your friend may feel abandoned.
· 4
Anniversaries and birthdays carry even more weight in long-distance friendships. Although technology might make day-to-day communication possible, extra effort goes a long way on special days. Simply keeping a diary that keeps track of friends’ birthdays and other important dates will make sure nothing slips by you.
·Don’t rely on technology alone
5 , but long-distance friendships — even close ones — may require more conscious effort to sustain. Try to seek out chances to renew friendships. How to do it? Just spend face-to-face time together whenever possible.
A. Remember important dates
B. Compensate by writing letters
C. It is also helpful for you to be a friendship keeper
D. Try to find a time that works for both of you and stick to it
E. Friends need to talk about their preferred methods of communication
F. It is easy to have a sense of connectedness through social media
G. You may be the friend who left or the one who was left behind
【答案】1. D 2. E 3. G 4. A 5. F
【导语】本文是一篇应用文,介绍了五种维系异地友谊的方法。
1. 根据上文“With busy schedules, squeezing in phone calls can be a challenge.”(平日繁忙,很难抽出时间打电话)讲的是双方都很忙碌,很难有时间给对方打电话,D项“尽量找个双方都有空的时间去打电话,并坚持下去” 给出了解决没时间打电话这个问题的方法,符合题意。故选D项。
2. 根据上文“Make sure you have communicated with your friend about how frequently each of you wants to be contacted and what method works best for you both.”(确保你已经和你的朋友沟通过,了解你们想要联系的频率,以及哪种方法对你们双方都最有效)提到异地朋友之间要商量沟通方式,E项“朋友需要谈论他们喜欢的交流方式”承接上文,进一步提出对交流的方法的沟通,下文“There are alternatives to constant written communication, such as leaving voice messages or having a group chat.”(除了持续的文字交流,还有其他选择,比如留下语音信息或进行群聊)对E项中的“methods of communication”进行了举例说明,上下文语意连贯。故选E项。
3. 根据下文“The friend who is remaining”(留下来的朋友)和“The one in the new environment”(在新环境中的那个)提到朋友的两个不同处境,G项“你可能是朋友中离开的那一方,也可能是被留下的那一方”指出了异地友谊中分为离开的一方和留下的一方,其中“the friend who left”和“the one who was left behind”分别对应下文“The one in the new environment”和“The friend who is remaining”,所以G项符合题意。故选G项。
4. 分析文章结构可知,设空处的内容是维系异地友谊的第四个方法,是第五段的小标题。下文“Anniversaries and birthdays carry even more weight in long-distance friendships.”(周年纪念日和生日对于异地友谊而言是非常重要的)讲的是诸如周年纪念日和生日等重要的日子对于维系异地友谊是非常重要的,由此推知,这段对应的维系异地友谊的方法是A项“Remember important dates”(记得重要的日子),所以A项符合题意。故选A项。
5. 设空处所在句子的后半句“but long-distance friendships — even close ones — may require more conscious effort to sustain.”(但是异地友谊——甚至是关系亲密的友谊——可能需要更加自觉地去维系)讲的是我们要更加自觉地维系异地友谊,其中“but”说明后半句与设空处形成转折,而F项“朋友之间很容易通过社交媒体产生一种联结感”讲的是可以通过社交媒体这种方式很容易与朋友产生联结,与后半句“require more conscious effort to sustain”形成转折,而且其中的“social media”呼应了该段的小标题“Don’t rely on technology alone”(不要仅仅依赖技术)中的“technology”。故选F项。
(2022·新高考全国Ⅰ卷)Fitness Magazine recently ran an article titled “Five Reasons to Thank Your Workout Partner.” One reason was: “You’ll actually show up if you know someone is waiting for you at the gym, ” while another read: “ 1 ” With a workout partner, you will increase your training effort as there is a subtle (微妙) competition.
So, how do you find a workout partner?
First of all, decide what you want from that person. 2 Or do you just want to be physically fit, able to move with strength and flexibility? Think about the exercises you would like to do with your workout partner.
You might think about posting what you are looking for on social media, but it probably won’t result in a useful response. 3 If you plan on working out in a gym, that person must belong to the same gym.
My partner posted her request on the notice board of a local park. Her notice included what kind of training she wanted to do, how many days a week and how many hours she wanted to spend on each session, and her age. It also listed her favorite sports and activities, and provided her phone number. 4
You and your partner will probably have different skills. 5 Over time, both of you will benefit—your partner will be able to lift more weights and you will become more physically fit. The core (核心) of your relationship is that you will always be there to help each other.
A. Your first meeting may be a little awkward.
B. A workout partner usually needs to live close by.
C. You’ll work harder if you train with someone else.
D. Do you want to be a better athlete in your favorite sport?
E. How can you write a good “seeking training partner” notice?
F. Just accept your differences and learn to work with each other.
G. Any notice for a training partner should include such information.
【答案】1. C 2. D 3. B 4. G 5. F
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了如何找到一个一起锻炼的伙伴。
1. 根据前文“Fitness Magazine recently ran an article titled “Five Reasons to Thank Your Workout Partner.” One reason was: “You’ll actually show up if you know someone is waiting for you at the gym,”(《健身杂志》最近刊登了一篇题为《感谢健身伙伴的五个理由》的文章。一个理由是:“如果你知道有人在健身房等你,你就会去锻炼。”)”以及后文“With a workout partner, you will increase your training effort as there is a subtle (微妙) competition. (有一个锻炼伙伴,你将会努力训练,因为你们之间有一个微妙的竞争)”可知,空处陈述另一个和别人一起锻炼的理由,故选项应与后文是顺承关系,选项C中的“train with someone else”与后文的“With a workout partner”相对应,选项C“You’ll work harder if you train with someone else.(如果你和别人一起训练,你会更努力)”符合语意。故选C项。
2. 根据前文“First of all, decide what you want from that person. (首先,决定你想从那个人身上得到什么)”和后文“Or do you just want to be physically fit, able to move with strength and flexibility?(或者你只是想要身体健康,能够移动的力量和灵活性?)”可知,这里是一个问句,反问自己结伴锻炼的目的,故空处与后文是选择关系,你要知道你锻炼是为了什么。所以选项D“Do you want to be a better athlete in your favorite sport? (你想在你最喜欢的运动项目上成为更好的运动员吗?)”与后文在语意上构成选择关系。故选D项。
3. 根据前文“You might think about posting what you are looking for on social media, but it probably won't result in a useful response. (你可能会考虑在社交媒体上发布你想要的东西,但可能不会得到有用的回应)”和后文“If you plan on working out in a gym, that person must belong to the same gym.(如果你打算在健身房锻炼,那个人一定是同一个健身房的)”可知,寻找的锻炼伙伴要具有便利性的特点。选项B中的“live close by”与后文的“belong to the same gym”相对应,选项B“A workout partner usually needs to live close by. (锻炼伙伴通常需要住在附近)”与下文是顺承关系。故选B项。
4. 根据前文“My partner posted her request on the notice board of a local park. Her notice included what kind of training she wanted to do, how many days a week and how many hours she wanted to spend on each session, and her age. It also listed her favorite sports and activities, and provided her phone number. (我的搭档把她的要求贴在了当地公园的布告栏上。她的注意事项包括她想要做什么样的锻炼,每周多少天,每次培训要花多少小时,以及她的年龄。它还列出了她最喜欢的运动和活动,并提供了她的电话号码)”可知,本段作者以自己的锻炼伙伴为例,说明寻找锻炼伙伴布告所要包括的信息。所以选项G“Any notice for a training partner should include such information. (任何锻炼伙伴的布告都应包括这些信息)”是对上文内容的总结,符合语意。故选G项。
5. 根据前文“You and your partner will probably have different skills. (你和你的伴侣可能有不同的技能)”和后文“Over time, both of you will benefit—your partner will be able to lift more weights and you will become more physically fit. The core (核心) of your relationship is that you will always be there to help each other. (久而久之,你们双方都会受益—你的伴侣会举起更多的重量,你也会变得更健康。你们关系的核心是你们永远在一起互相帮助)”可知,要学会求同存异,一起合作,共同提高。选项F中的“differences”对应前文的“different skills”,选项中的“work with each other”对应后文的“be there to help each other”,故选项F“Just accept your differences and learn to work with each other. (接受你们的不同,学会彼此合作)”起到承上启下的作用,符合语意。故选F项。

变式二、人与社会话题名校好题
01(2025·广东清远·一模)My volunteer journey began during a summer break when I decided to join a local organization that focused on supporting underprivileged (贫苦的) children. Initially, I viewed it as a way to spend my free time contributing to a good cause. 1
At first, I was shocked by the challenges these children faced — poverty, lack of education, and emotional pain. 2 However, as I spent more time with them, I started to understand their resilience (适应力) and strength, which inspired me to give my best effort. That marked the beginning of a deep and lasting connection.
3 One such instance occurred when I was helping a young girl, Maria, with her homework. She struggled with math and was often discouraged. After weeks of working together, I saw a breakthrough as I taught a difficult concept. The joy in her eyes was indescribable. It was then that I realized the power of patience and support in making a visible difference. 4 I was responsible for coordinating (协调) a group of volunteers, which taught me leadership and teamwork skills. The success not only lifted the children but also reinforced my belief in the importance of joint effort. Those moments shaped my approach to volunteering and motivated me to seek more opportunities to serve.
The volunteer experience did more than provide valuable skills — it shifted my priorities and life goals. Before that, I had been focused on academic success and individual accomplishments. 5 I developed a passion for social work and community service, and I now try to integrate these into my future career.
A. Despite my intentions, I felt unprepared to help truly.
B. Facing unexpected challenges helped me become more resourceful.
C. However, the experience taught me that there is more to life than those.
D. Another memorable moment was during a community event we organized.
E. Several critical moments made my volunteer experience truly life-changing.
F. The stories demonstrated the impact volunteering can have on individual growth.
G. Little did I know that the experience would significantly change my outlook on life.
【答案】1. G 2. A 3. E 4. D 5. C
【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。主要讲述了作者从事志愿活动的经历和感悟。
1. 上文“Initially, I viewed it as a way to spend my free time contributing to a good cause.(起初,我把它看作是一种利用空闲时间为公益事业做贡献的方式)”表明作者最初对志愿者工作的简单认知,下文需要体现态度或认知的转变。选项G“我当时根本不知道这段经历会极大地改变我的人生观。”符合语境,“改变人生观”为后文讲述志愿经历的影响埋下伏笔。故选G。
2. 上文“At first, I was shocked by the challenges these children faced — poverty, lack of education, and emotional pain.(起初,我对这些孩子面临的挑战感到震惊 —— 贫困、缺乏教育和情感痛苦)”描述作者初遇孩子时的震惊,下文“However”表转折,强调后来的积极转变,因此空格处需体现作者最初的无力感,与后文形成对比。选项A“尽管我有这样的想法,但我确实觉得自己没有准备好去帮助他们。”符合语境。故选A。
3. 下文“One such instance occurred when I was helping a young girl, Maria, with her homework.(有这样一个例子,当时我正在帮一个名叫玛丽亚的小女孩辅导作业)”以“One such instance(一个这样的例子)”开头,说明上文需提及“多个关键事例”,引出具体例子。选项E“几个关键时刻让我的志愿者经历真正改变了我的人生。”符合语境,总起“关键时刻的影响”,下文通过辅导玛丽亚的具体例子展开。故选E。
4. 上文“It was then that I realized the power of patience and support in making a visible difference.(就在那时,我意识到耐心和支持在产生明显影响方面的力量)”讲述辅导玛丽亚的事例及感悟,下文 “I was responsible for coordinating (协调) a group of volunteers, which taught me leadership and teamwork skills.(我负责协调一组志愿者,这教会了我领导能力和团队合作能力)”提到自己学会领导能力和团队合作能力的,说明空格处需过渡到另一个具体事例,形成“一个事例+另一个事例”的并列结构。选项D“另一个难忘的时刻是在我们组织的一次社区活动中。”符合语境,衔接流畅。故选D。
5. 上文“Before that, I had been focused on academic success and individual accomplishments.(在此之前,我一直专注于学业成功和个人成就)”描述作者之前的生活重心,结合上文提到志愿经历 改变了作者的优先级和人生目标可知,空格处需体现“现在的认知与之前不同”,形成对比。选项C“然而,这段经历让我明白生活中除了这些还有更多重要的东西。”符合语境,“more to life than those(生活不止这些)”体现认知转变,与下文“developed a passion for social work(对社会工作产生热情)形成逻辑递进。故选C。

1. 前文“But during the holiday season, we are often reminded of something important. (但在节日期间,我们经常会想起一些重要的事情)”提到节日期间有重要的事情,后文“Below are four easy ways to do just that by helping our neighbors facing hunger. (下面是帮助我们面对饥饿的邻居的四种简单方法)”引出帮助饥饿邻居的方法,空处应说明重要的事情是什么,且与帮助他人相关,因此E项“It’s to give back, especially to those in need. (回馈社会,尤其是帮助有需要的人)”符合语境,承接前文,为后文的方法做铺垫,其中的It指代前文的something important,those in need和后文的our neighbors facing hunger呼应。故选E。
2. 前文“Get your friends, family or neighborhood together and start a food drive. (把你的朋友、家人或邻居聚在一起,发起一个食物募捐活动)”建议组织食物募捐活动,后文“Then in the weeks leading up to the holidays and at holiday gatherings, encourage your neighbors and family to help make a difference by supporting your food drive. (然后在节日前的几周和节日聚会上,鼓励你的邻居和家人通过支持你的食物活动来帮助改变)”介绍进一步的做法是鼓励身边人支持募捐,空处应介绍食物募捐的第一步,因此G项“Contact your local food bank and learn what items they need most first. (联系当地食品银行,先了解它们最需要的物品)”符合语境,契合募捐的活动步骤,承前启后。故选G。
3. 后文“Do you have a friend or family member that cares deeply for others? This year, consider donating to Feeding America in honor of your friends and family. You will be spreading the love twice as far by giving meals to families who are in need and giving your loved one a meaningful gift. (你有一个朋友或家人非常关心别人吗?今年,考虑向Feeding America组织捐款,向你的朋友和家人表示敬意。通过给有需要的家庭送餐和给你所爱的人一份有意义的礼物,你将把爱传播得更远)”建议以朋友或家人的名义向慈善机构捐款,既帮助他人,又表达心意。空处是段落标题,应建议以捐款的形式送礼,且需和其他段落标题一样使用祈使句的形式,因此A项“Give a gift that gives back. (送一份能回馈社会的礼物)”符合语境,契合段落内容。故选A。
4. 前文“Did you know that 51% of all food programs rely entirely on volunteers? (你知道51%的食品项目完全依靠志愿者吗)”指出志愿者的重要性,后文“But the feeling of helping your neighbors in need during the holiday season is priceless. (但是在节日期间帮助有需要的邻居的感觉是无价的)”话题转折,强调提供帮助的价值,空处应和价值形成对比,说明行动或投入虽小,因此B项“It won’t cost you anything. (它不会花费你任何东西)”符合语境,承接前文,和后文构成转折。故选B。
5. 前文“There are lots of ways that you can help people facing hunger without leaving the comfort of your own home. You can start an online fundraiser or add Feeding America as your charity of choice on Amazon Smile or eBay. (有很多方法可以让你不用离开舒适的家就能帮助那些面对饥饿的人。你可以发起一个在线筹款活动,或者在Amazon Smile或eBay上添加Feeding America作为你的慈善选择)”建议在线帮助饥饿人群,并给出具体的做法示例,空处应说明这一行为的影响,因此F项“Your digital footprint may inspire others to join you. (你的数字足迹可能会激励他人加入)”符合语境,指出在线行为的积极效果,承接前文。故选F。
03(25-26高三上·黑龙江·阶段练习)Years ago, I visited a trade school and was so inspired by the introduction to the plumbing (管道) courses that I enrolled then and there. I completed a plumbing program, earning a certification of competency and was determined to take up an apprenticeship (学徒期)。
However, securing my first apprenticeship seemed impossible in New York City. 1 The only response I received was that I didn’t have enough hands-on experience. I found myself asking, “How can I get experience if I need experience before being considered for my first job?”
Then I spent six months on the Hurricane Harvey Relief Program in Rockport, Texas. During that time, as a volunteer, I was involved in setting up plumbing systems while fitting kitchens and bathrooms. I was able to learn from qualified contractors working on more technical issues. I also learned much about constructing homes, from hanging drywall to fitting doors, windows and flooring. 2 That was because volunteers needed to deal with various unusual problems.
When I returned home and updated my resume (简历), I was impressed by the list of skills I’d gathered in that short space of time. 3 It was encouraging to be offered many interviews. Eventually, I was hired as an apprentice plumber by the first company I interviewed with.
4 I wouldn’t have got the job if it hadn’t been for what I had learned on the program. If you are currently being told you need hands-on experience before you’ll be considered for an entry-level position, consider volunteering on programs. 5 My story is proof.
A. Many people are eager to be volunteers.
B. I really feel I owe that all to my volunteering experience.
C. With my newfound passion, I chose to get a different position.
D. You’ll learn a variety of skills that can be translated to suit many jobs.
E. I started applying for jobs again and I noticed a shift in responses from employers.
F. So many candidates were competing for the same role and I couldn’t land an interview.
G. There were also plenty of opportunities for me to pick up creative problem-solving skills.
【答案】1. F 2. G 3. E 4. B 5. D
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。讲述作者考取管道工证书后难寻学徒工作,通过参与飓风救灾志愿活动积累技能,最终成功入职,以此证明志愿经历对求职的帮助。
1. 根据上文“However, securing my first apprenticeship seemed impossible in New York City. (然而,在纽约市找到第一份学徒工作似乎难如登天。)”以及下文“The only response I received was that I didn’t have enough hands-on experience. (我得到的唯一回应是,我没有足够的实操经验。)”可知,此空需补充“难寻学徒工作”的具体原因,衔接上下文。F选项“So many candidates were competing for the same role and I couldn’t land an interview. (有太多求职者竞争同一个岗位,我连面试机会都得不到。)”既解释了“找工作难”的客观原因(竞争激烈),又为下文“仅有的回应是缺乏经验”做铺垫,符合语境。故选F项。
2. 根据上文“I was able to learn from qualified contractors working on more technical issues. I also learned much about constructing homes, from hanging drywall to fitting doors, windows and flooring. (我能向专业承包商学习处理更复杂的技术问题,还学到了很多房屋建造知识,从安装石膏板到装配门窗和地板。)”以及下文“That was because volunteers needed to deal with various unusual problems.

09(2025·北京朝阳·二模)There is considerable evidence from studies with adults that volunteering benefits a person’s physical and mental health. 1 A 2023 analysis suggested that young people who had participated in community service were more likely to be in excellent health and stayed calm when faced with challenges.
2 It could be that the children volunteers were already in great health. But because of an alarming rise in mental health issues among young people, environmental health scientists believe this early evidence is promising enough to pursue. A 2021 advisory warned that the number of young people reporting constant feelings of sadness or hopelessness had increased by40 percent over the previous decade. There are multiple possible causes, including anxiety over climate change, the effects of social media use and unfriendly personal circumstances.
To address these problems, researchers point to the importance of “contribution” as an essential piece of social and emotional development for teenagers. Volunteering is one good way young people can contribute. 3 In 2022, developmental psychologist Parissa Ballard and her colleagues tested volunteering as an intervention for nine 14-to-20-year-olds who had been recently diagnosed with mild to moderate depression or anxiety. After 30 hours of volunteer work at community organizations, the average reduction in depressive symptoms was 19 percent.
What accounts for the benefits? Helping others improves mood and raises confidence. It provides rich ground for building social connections. It also changes how young people see themselves. Many teens don’t feel important. 4
There may be a potential downside to volunteering, however. 5 “Young people have to choose something that feels meaningful to them,” Ballard says. Adults can help by offering choices and checking volunteer opportunities to be sure that organizations are well run and equipped to offer a good experience.
A. Admittedly, this finding only shows connections.
B. Now scientists are finding similar links in children and teenagers.
C. This improvement was in comparison with young people who did not volunteer.
D. The sense of mattering to others translates really well to their needs to connect and belong.
E. Everyone in the study enjoyed the work and reported a sense of pride and accomplishment.
F. The experience can be harmful if young people feel like they are being forced to participate.
G. Volunteering gives them a different sense of themselves, a sense of confidence and self-value.
【答案】1. B 2. A 3. D 4. G 5. F
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了青少年志愿服务对其身心健康有益及相关研究。
1. 上文“There is considerable evidence from studies with adults that volunteering benefits a person’s physical and mental health.(有大量针对成年人的研究证据表明,志愿服务有益于一个人的身心健康)”说明成年人志愿服务有益身心健康。空处和前文为顺接关系,说明在青少年中也有类似发现,并引出下文的相关研究。所以B项“现在科学家们在儿童和青少年中也发现了类似的联系。”符合语境。该项中的“similar links”和上文中的“adults that volunteering benefits a person’s physical and mental health”呼应。故选B。
2. 上文“A 2023 analysis suggested that young people who had participated in community service were more likely to be in excellent health and stayed calm when faced with challenges.(2023年的一项分析表明,参与过社区服务的年轻人更有可能保持极佳的健康状态,并且在面对挑战时能够保持冷静)”以及下文“It could be that the children volunteers were already in great health.(可能是参加志愿活动的孩子本来就很健康)”是对某种发现的一种可能性解释。空处承接上文的发现,并对这种情况给出了认可。A项“诚然,这一发现只是表明了一种联系。”符合语境,引出下文对研究发现局限性的说明,而选项中“this finding”指代了上文中的“young people who had participated in community service were more likely to be in excellent health and stayed calm when faced with challenges”这一发现。故选A。
3. 上文“To address these problems, researchers point to the importance of “contribution” as an essential piece of social and emotional development for teenagers. Volunteering is one good way young people can contribute.(为了解决这些问题,研究人员指出,“贡献”对于青少年的社会和情感发展至关重要。志愿服务是年轻人可以做出贡献的一种良好方式)”说明了志愿服务是年轻人可以做出贡献的一种良好方式。空处与上文逻辑紧密相连,解释了志愿服务为何能让年轻人做出贡献。D项“对他人的重要性很好地转化为他们建立联系和归属感的需求。”符合语境,是对上文内容的进一步阐述和解释。故选D。
4. 上文“What accounts for the benefits? Helping others improves mood and raises confidence. It provides rich ground for building social connections. It also changes how young people see themselves. Many teens don’t feel important.(这些好处的原因是什么?帮助他人可以改善情绪,增强信心。它为建立社会联系提供了丰富的基础。这也改变了年轻人对自己的看法。许多青少年觉得自己不重要)”列举了几个志愿者带来好处的原因。C项“志愿活动给了他们一种不同的自我感觉,一种自信和自我价值感。”承接上文说明志愿者服务可以让青少年找到自我,产生自信和自我价值观,改变青少年认为自己不重要的看法。故选G。
5. 上文“There may be a potential downside to volunteering, however.(然而,志愿服务可能有一个潜在的缺点)”说明志愿服务存在问题。空处具体说明问题所在,F项“如果年轻人觉得自己是被迫参与的,这种经历可能是有害的。”符合语境,解释了志愿服务可能带来负面影响的原因。该项中的“The experience can be harmful”和上文中的“a potential downside”相呼应。故选F。
10(2025·湖北·模拟预测)The healing power of thinking of others
Volunteering can greatly improve both emotional and physical happiness. While self-care is important, helping others can also be a powerful path to healing(疗愈). 1 Research highlights its benefits. A 2013 analysis of 40 studies found that volunteering reduces depression and boosts life satisfaction. Additionally, volunteers at food banks often report feeling less lonely, while a US study found they are more likely to experience calmness, purpose, and peace.
Beyond emotional benefits, volunteering also improves physical health. A Carnegie Mellon University study revealed that dedicating 200 hours a year to volunteering lowers the risk of high blood pressure by 40%. 2 It is linked to a lower risk of heart attacks and early death. This connection highlights the close link between emotional and physical happiness.
For some, volunteering can even provide a helpful escape during emotional struggles. Therapist Mel Riley shares her own experience, noting that supporting others helped her manage her depression. Riley believes that focusing on others can provide a break from intense feelings. 3
4 Animal lovers, environmental supporters, or those who enjoy socializing can all find meaningful ways to contribute. Volunteering can be formal, like helping charities, or informal, such as assisting a neighbor or joining online support groups. Even sharing your knowledge in areas like healthy eating or gardening can be meaningful.
Riley emphasizes that volunteering should feel rewarding rather than burdensome. Studies suggest dedicating just two hours a week is enough to gain mental health benefits. 5 Riley warns that frequent tears, anxiety, or feelings of hopelessness may signal burnout. In such cases, stepping back is important, and it’s perfectly okay to say no if you’re struggling.
A. This shift creates space for healing.
B. However, it’s crucial to maintain balance.
C. It’s vital for both sides’ growth and happiness.
D. Helping’s joy has been recognized since the 1980s.
E. Studies show volunteering with a strong purpose benefits health.
F. Volunteering aids emotional healing and boosts the increase of wealth.
G. Finding the right volunteer role depends on personal interests and skills.
【答案】1. D 2. E 3. A 4. G 5. B
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了为他人着想的治愈力量,特别是通过志愿服务对个人情感和身体健康的积极影响。
1. 根据下文“Research highlights its benefits. A 2013 analysis of 40 studies found that volunteering reduces depression and boosts life satisfaction. Additionally, volunteers at food banks often report feeling less lonely, while a US study found they are more likely to experience calmness, purpose, and peace.(研究突出了它的益处。一项对40项研究的2013年分析发现,志愿服务能减少抑郁并提升生活满意度。此外,在食品救济站做志愿服务的人常表示孤独感减轻了,而美国的一项研究发现,他们更有可能体验到平静、目标感与内心的安宁。)”可知,下文提到了研究指出了志愿服务的益处。选项D“Helping’s joy has been recognized since the 1980s.(自20世纪80年代起,帮助他人所带来的快乐就已得到认可。)”提到帮助他人的快乐从20世纪80年代就被认可,与后文研究发现帮助他人有益处相呼应。故选D。
2. 上文“A Carnegie Mellon University study revealed that dedicating 200 hours a year to volunteering lowers the risk of high blood pressure by 40%.(卡内基梅隆大学的一项研究表明,每年投入200小时做志愿服务能使患高血压的风险降低40%。)”指出志愿活动能降低高血压风险;而下文“It is linked to a lower risk of heart attacks and early death.(它与降低心脏病发作和过早死亡的风险相关。)”则说它与降低心脏病发作和早逝风险有关。选项E“Studies show volunteering with a strong purpose benefits health.(研究显示,带着强烈目的去做志愿服务有益于健康。)”指出有强烈目的的志愿活动有益于健康,能很好地承接上下文,进一步说明志愿活动对健康的好处。故选E。
3. 上文“Therapist Mel Riley shares her own experience, noting that supporting others helped her manage her depression. Riley believes that focusing on others can provide a break from intense feelings.(治疗师Mel Riley分享了她自己的经历,她指出帮助他人帮助她应对了抑郁症。Riley认为,专注于他人能让人从强烈的情感中暂时解脱出来。)”提到治疗师 Mel Riley 认为专注于他人能让自己从强烈的情绪中解脱出来。选项A“This shift creates space for healing.(这种转变为治愈创造了空间。)”中的“This shift”指代前文专注于他人的这种转变,“creates space for healing”说明这种转变为疗愈创造了空间,与前文内容衔接紧密。故选A。
4. 空处为段首句,为本段主要内容。下文“Animal lovers, environmental supporters, or those who enjoy socializing can all find meaningful ways to contribute. Volunteering can be formal, like helping charities, or informal, such as assisting a neighbor or joining online support groups. Even sharing your knowledge in areas like healthy eating or gardening can be meaningful.(动物爱好者、环保支持者,或者那些喜欢社交的人,都能找到有意义的方式来做出贡献。志愿服务可以是正式的,比如为慈善机构提供帮助,也可以是非正式的,比如帮助邻居或加入在线支持团体。甚至在健康饮食或园艺等领域分享自己的知识也可能意义非凡。)”提到动物爱好者、环境支持者等不同兴趣的人都能找到有意义的志愿方式,以及志愿活动可以是正式的或非正式的等内容。选项G“Finding the right volunteer role depends on personal interests and skills.(找到合适的志愿角色取决于个人兴趣和技能。)”指出找到合适的志愿角色取决于个人兴趣和技能,能够概括后文内容。故选G。
5. 上文“Riley emphasizes that volunteering should feel rewarding rather than burdensome. Studies suggest dedicating just two hours a week is enough to gain mental health benefits. (Riley强调,志愿服务应该让人感到有回报,而不是成为负担。研究表明,每周只需投入两小时做志愿服务就足以获得心理健康方面的益处。)”指出每周花两小时做志愿就足以获得心理健康益处;而下文“Riley warns that frequent tears, anxiety, or feelings of hopelessness may signal burnout. In such cases, stepping back is important, and it’s perfectly okay to say no if you’re struggling.( Riley警告说,频繁流泪、焦虑或绝望感可能是倦怠的信号。在这种情况下,后退一步很重要,如果你感到挣扎,拒绝参与也完全没问题。)”则提到如果出现频繁流泪、焦虑等可能是倦怠的信号,需要后退。选项B“However, it’s crucial to maintain balance.(然而,保持平衡至关重要。)”中的“However”表示转折,说明在做志愿时要保持平衡,既提到了做志愿有好处,又引出了不能过度做志愿,要注意平衡的内容。故选B。

一、定位段首——确定是“主题句”还是“过渡句”
技巧一、确定段落小标题
在一些文章中,有些段落由小标题引领,而设空处恰好是小标题的位置。其呈现形式应和其他小标题相同,认真阅读设空处后的段落内容就能推断出小标题。
考例再现:(2023·全国甲卷)
• 39 .
So many of us have the belief that being comfortable is the only state we will tolerate, and when we experience something outside of our comfort zone, we get impatient about the circumstances. You should learn to say to yourself, “40.This is merely uncomfortable,not intolerable.” You'll then gradually become more patient.
A.Find your causes
B.Start with small tasks
C.Accept the uncomfortable
D.All this adds up to a state of hurry
E.It can also help us practice more patience
F.This is merely uncomfortable, not intolerable
G.They're all situations where we could use a little extra patience
技巧二:确定段落主题句
正确选项要有概括性,通常与空格后的一两句在内容上连贯且符合逻辑,在意义上衔接紧密。
考例再现:(2022·新课标Ⅱ卷)
Writing an essay is a difficult process for most people. However, the process can be made easier if you learn to practice three simple techniques.
36 When you are first trying to think of ideas for an essay,put your pen to your paper and write nonstop for ten or fifteen minutes without letting your pen leave the paper. Stay loose and free. 37.Let your pen follow the waves of thought. Don't worry about grammar or spelling. Even though this technique won't work for everyone,it helps many people get a good store of ideas to draw on.
A.Make sure your handwriting is neat.
B.Let your pen follow the waves of thought.
C.The second draft of the essay should be better.
D.First of all,learn the technique of nonstop writing.
E.Too many writers try to get their drafts right the first time.
F.Many beginning writers don't leave enough space to revise.
G.Then you can print out a fresh draft,again setting your text on triple-space.
技巧三、确定承上启下句
当非首段的首句设空时,设空处也有可能是承上启下句。这要求考生既要熟悉上一段的内容,尤其是上一段的结尾句的内容,又要结合本段内容,使所选答案能够无缝衔接两段内容。
考例再现:(2024·新课标Ⅰ卷)
I keep two reference books close-by on my desk: dictionary and thesaurus(同义词词典). I don't trust my laptop's spellchecker. 37.It takes no account of the context. Of course, these days there are plenty of online dictionaries and thesauruses, but I'm old-fashioned enough to prefer a hard cover and pages I can leaf through with my fingers. I use the Concise Oxford Dictionary and the Collins The saurus.
38 It should give you a precise definition of each word, thus differentiating it from other words whose meanings are similar, but not identical. It will also usually show how the word is pronounced.
A.I don't often use this dictionary.
B.It takes no account of the context.
C.But I still don't want to replace them.
D.But a dictionary can be a pleasure to read.
E.Of course, a dictionary is not only for spelling.
F.That means good grammar and no spelling mistakes.
G.Dictionaries don't always give you enough information.
二、定位段中——细辨是“过渡句”还是“细节句”
技巧一、细辨过渡句
通常考查空格处与前后句子之间的逻辑关系和衔接关系。常见的逻辑关系有总分关系、解释关系、转折关系、因果关系、递进关系、并列关系和例证关系等。
考题再现:
(2022·全国甲卷)Some of these cultural dining etiquette rules may seem random and strange, but they are important in various countries.40, the more comfortable you'll begin to feel with its foreign cultural practices.
A.The more friends you make in your lifetime
B.The more time you spend in any given country
C.Mexicans consider it inappropriate to eat with utensils
D.Don't get caught making an embarrassing mistake at a restaurant
E.It's a good sign for the chef if you make a mess around your plate
F.Never stick them upright in your food or cross them as you use them
G.It may seem like a simple request to ask for salt and pepper at a meal
技巧二、细辨细节句
空格处内容通常补充前文的具体事实、事例和说明。
考题再现:(2022·全国甲卷)
Hands or Utensils(餐具)

(2025·浙江·高考真题)One of the most common mistakes in communication is trying to do too much. 1 There’s no value in delivering any kind of communication, whether written, spoken, formal, or informal, if the message doesn’t come across clearly. Being clear and brief — while maintaining interest and including everything your listeners need to know — is a high-level communication skill.
Here are some tips worth following in order to communicate more effectively.
Keep your audience in mind.
Your audience will naturally be more interested and engaged when you tailor your communications to their interests. 2 This will engage their desire to understand and interact with the information.
Don’t use ten words when one will do.
Even the most engaged and committed audience will eventually get bored. Keeping your message simple and clear will make it easier for people to understand. 3 However, they’re hearing it for the first time. Keep it simple.
4
If you’ve ever worked as an instructor, manager, trainer or coach, you’ll know that there are few better ways to learn new information than to teach it. Ask the audience to contribute their ideas or to take a role in explaining new concepts and policies to others. Allow them to lead discussions and meetings to develop their communication skills.
Consider the best method to deliver your message.
If the information you’re communicating isn’t urgent, consider sending an email. Written communication will give your audience more time to review it, think it over, and follow up with questions. 5
Building effective communication skills takes time, but the effects are worth the effort.
A.Be patient.
B.Get the audience involved.
C.The best messages are often simple.
D.Speak directly to what matters to them.
E.You may be surprised by what your listeners offer.
F.It will also give them a handy record to refer back to.
G.As the speaker, you already know what you’re going to say.
(2023·北京·高考真题)It’s a joyful and stressful time of year in the United States for students and their families as they make decisions about where to attend college. Families often turn to rankings systems to help make a decision. 1
When I talk to families as a scholar of higher education, they’re often surprised that teaching excellence is not counted in rankings. 2
Emerging research suggests that courses in lower-ranked universities, on average, scored higher on teaching than courses in higher-ranked universities. 3 The absence of teaching excellence from the rankings is surprising given the link between high-quality teaching and student success. Quality teaching is one of the most important predictors of a wide range of college outcomes.
Rankings, however, are only one reason why a low value is placed on teaching in higher education. Administrators often don’t view teaching excellence as a way to increase enrolment (注册) or funding. 4 Research shows that the more time instructors spend on teaching, the lower their salary. What is the result? Many instructors continue to teach using traditional lectures, which lead to lower success rates.
5 Nevertheless, not much will change until schools with high-quality teaching are rewarded with more resources, higher rankings and increased enrolments. In the long term, universities, organisations that rank schools, and others should work to make teaching a valued, core part of the mission.
What should students and their families do? They should give strong consideration to universities where high-quality teaching is valued, even though the schools may be ranked lower.
A.Higher education has achieved its true potential.
B.Therefore, it’s not highly valued in hiring or promotion.
C.Quality teaching has been an important reputation-building factor.
D.However, the rankings ignore a critical factor: the quality of teaching.
E.Efforts to improve teaching at the university level have recently emerged.
F.They’re even more surprised at how teaching is undervalued by universities.
G.In fact, universities often shift emphasis from teaching to other ranking factors.
(2022·全国乙卷·高考真题)Friendship needs care and attention to keep it in good health. Here are five ways to sustain (保持) long-distance friendships.
·Set a regular date
Long-lasting friendships share the characteristic that both sides equally contact (联系) and share with one another. With busy schedules, squeezing in phone calls can be a challenge. 1 .
·More isn’t always merrier
Make sure you have communicated with your friend about how frequently each of you wants to be contacted and what method works best for you both. 2 . There are alternatives to constant written communication, such as leaving voice messages or having a group chat.
·Practise empathy (共情)
3 . The friend who is remaining needs to be sensitive to all the additional time demands placed on the friend who has moved. The one in the new environment should be sympathetic to the fact that your friend may feel abandoned.
· 4
Anniversaries and birthdays carry even more weight in long-distance friendships. Although technology might make day-to-day communication possible, extra effort goes a long way on special days. Simply keeping a diary that keeps track of friends’ birthdays and other important dates will make sure nothing slips by you.
·Don’t rely on technology alone
5 , but long-distance friendships — even close ones — may require more conscious effort to sustain. Try to seek out chances to renew friendships. How to do it? Just spend face-to-face time together whenever possible.
A.Remember important dates
B.Compensate by writing letters
C.It is also helpful for you to be a friendship keeper
D.Try to find a time that works for both of you and stick to it
E.Friends need to talk about their preferred methods of communication
F.It is easy to have a sense of connectedness through social media
G.You may be the friend who left or the one who was left behind
(2022·新高考全国Ⅰ卷)Fitness Magazine recently ran an article titled “Five Reasons to Thank Your Workout Partner.” One reason was: “You’ll actually show up if you know someone is waiting for you at the gym, ” while another read: “ 1 ” With a workout partner, you will increase your training effort as there is a subtle (微妙) competition.
So, how do you find a workout partner?
First of all, decide what you want from that person. 2 Or do you just want to be physically fit, able to move with strength and flexibility? Think about the exercises you would like to do with your workout partner.
You might think about posting what you are looking for on social media, but it probably won’t result in a useful response. 3 If you plan on working out in a gym, that person must belong to the same gym.
My partner posted her request on the notice board of a local park. Her notice included what kind of training she wanted to do, how many days a week and how many hours she wanted to spend on each session, and her age. It also listed her favorite sports and activities, and provided her phone number. 4
You and your partner will probably have different skills. 5 Over time, both of you will benefit—your partner will be able to lift more weights and you will become more physically fit. The core (核心) of your relationship is that you will always be there to help each other.
A.Your first meeting may be a little awkward.
B.A workout partner usually needs to live close by.
C.You’ll work harder if you train with someone else.
D.Do you want to be a better athlete in your favorite sport?
E.How can you write a good “seeking training partner” notice?
F.Just accept your differences and learn to work with each other.

In Asia, messaging platforms are growing rapidly, with users in the hundreds of millions, both at work and play. 1 . It’s been reported that 76 percent of employees in some western countries are using emojis at work.
Written communications can often read as cold and dull. Using emojis can add humor and feeling, keeping intention clear. 2 , encouraging better and more frequent communication.
In any given office, employees can range from age 22 to 70 and beyond, and finding common ground in communication style can be a challenge. 3 . While the younger generations prefer to communicate visually, for those used to working with traditional tools like email, it may feel like a learning curve(曲线). The good news is that it’s simple to learn and can be worth the effort.
There is also the matter of tone(语气). Who hasn’t received an email so annoying that it ruined an entire day? 4 . Emoji can help communication feel friendlier, and even a serious note can be softened with an encouraging smile.
5 , and emoji can contribute directly to that positive outcome. And when your employees begin adding smiling emojis to their business communication, you’ll know you have succeeded in improving your work culture.

01(2025·广东清远·一模)My volunteer journey began during a summer break when I decided to join a local organization that focused on supporting underprivileged (贫苦的) children. Initially, I viewed it as a way to spend my free time contributing to a good cause. 1
At first, I was shocked by the challenges these children faced — poverty, lack of education, and emotional pain. 2 However, as I spent more time with them, I started to understand their resilience (适应力) and strength, which inspired me to give my best effort. That marked the beginning of a deep and lasting connection.
3 One such instance occurred when I was helping a young girl, Maria, with her homework. She struggled with math and was often discouraged. After weeks of working together, I saw a breakthrough as I taught a difficult concept. The joy in her eyes was indescribable. It was then that I realized the power of patience and support in making a visible difference. 4 I was responsible for coordinating (协调) a group of volunteers, which taught me leadership and teamwork skills. The success not only lifted the children but also reinforced my belief in the importance of joint effort. Those moments shaped my approach to volunteering and motivated me to seek more opportunities to serve.

Before that, I had been focused on academic success and individual accomplishments. 5 I developed a passion for social work and community service, and I now try to integrate these into my future career.

03(25-26高三上·黑龙江·阶段练习)Years ago, I visited a trade school and was so inspired by the introduction to the plumbing (管道) courses that I enrolled then and there. I completed a plumbing program, earning a certification of competency and was determined to take up an apprenticeship (学徒期)。
However, securing my first apprenticeship seemed impossible in New York City. 1 The only response I received was that I didn’t have enough hands-on experience. I found myself asking, “How can I get experience if I need experience before being considered for my first job?”
Then I spent six months on the Hurricane Harvey Relief Program in Rockport, Texas. During that time, as a volunteer, I was involved in setting up plumbing systems while fitting kitchens and bathrooms. I was able to learn from qualified contractors working on more technical issues. I also learned much about constructing homes, from hanging drywall to fitting doors, windows and flooring. 2 That was because volunteers needed to deal with various unusual problems.
When I returned home and updated my resume (简历), I was impressed by the list of skills I’d gathered in that short space of time. 3 It was encouraging to be offered many interviews. Eventually, I was hired as an apprentice plumber by the first company I interviewed with.
4 I wouldn’t have got the job if it hadn’t been for what I had learned on the program. If you are currently being told you need hands-on experience before you’ll be considered for an entry-level position, consider volunteering on programs. 5 My story is proof.
A. Many people are eager to be volunteers.
B. I really feel I owe that all to my volunteering experience.
C. With my newfound passion, I chose to get a different position.
D. You’ll learn a variety of skills that can be translated to suit many jobs.

A high-quality parent-child relationship is important to healthy development. 1 To have a healthy parent-child relationship, parents must be responsive, trustworthy, and loving. Here are some tips for strengthening the relationship.
2 Parents who are involved in their children’s studies, friends, and activities have strong parent-child relationships. Learn what’s happening to them, understand their academics, and know their friends. Stay in regular touch with your children’s teachers or volunteer at school if you have leisure time.

Respect your children. 4 To a certain extent, while you are responsible for forming beliefs and opinions, other irrelevant factors also contribute to it. Respect their views so that they can respect you. Be a role model and exhibit positive behavior through your actions to set a positive example for your child to follow.

09(2025·北京朝阳·二模)There is considerable evidence from studies with adults that volunteering benefits a person’s physical and mental health. 1 A 2023 analysis suggested that young people who had participated in community service were more likely to be in excellent health and stayed calm when faced with challenges.
2 It could be that the children volunteers were already in great health. But because of an alarming rise in mental health issues among young people, environmental health scientists believe this early evidence is promising enough to pursue. A 2021 advisory warned that the number of young people reporting constant feelings of sadness or hopelessness had increased by40 percent over the previous decade. There are multiple possible causes, including anxiety over climate change, the effects of social media use and unfriendly personal circumstances.
To address these problems, researchers point to the importance of “contribution” as an essential piece of social and emotional development for teenagers. Volunteering is one good way young people can contribute. 3 In 2022, developmental psychologist Parissa Ballard and her colleagues tested volunteering as an intervention for nine 14-to-20-year-olds who had been recently diagnosed with mild to moderate depression or anxiety. After 30 hours of volunteer work at community organizations, the average reduction in depressive symptoms was 19 percent.
What accounts for the benefits? Helping others improves mood and raises confidence. It provides rich ground for building social connections. It also changes how young people see themselves. Many teens don’t feel important. 4
There may be a potential downside to volunteering, however. 5 “Young people have to choose something that feels meaningful to them,” Ballard says. Adults can help by offering choices and checking volunteer opportunities to be sure that organizations are well run and equipped to offer a good experience.
A. Admittedly, this finding only shows connections.
B. Now scientists are finding similar links in children and teenagers.
C. This improvement was in comparison with young people who did not volunteer.
D. The sense of mattering to others translates really well to their needs to connect and belong.
E. Everyone in the study enjoyed the work and reported a sense of pride and accomplishment.
F. The experience can be harmful if young people feel like they are being forced to participate.
G. Volunteering gives them a different sense of themselves, a sense of confidence and self-value.
10(2025·湖北·模拟预测)The healing power of thinking of others
Volunteering can greatly improve both emotional and physical happiness. While self-care is important, helping others can also be a powerful path to healing(疗愈). 1 Research highlights its benefits. A 2013 analysis of 40 studies found that volunteering reduces depression and boosts life satisfaction. Additionally, volunteers at food banks often report feeling less lonely, while a US study found they are more likely to experience calmness, purpose, and peace.
Beyond emotional benefits, volunteering also improves physical health. A Carnegie Mellon University study revealed that dedicating 200 hours a year to volunteering lowers the risk of high blood pressure by 40%. 2 It is linked to a lower risk of heart attacks and early death. This connection highlights the close link between emotional and physical happiness.
For some, volunteering can even provide a helpful escape during emotional struggles. Therapist Mel Riley shares her own experience, noting that supporting others helped her manage her depression. Riley believes that focusing on others can provide a break from intense feelings. 3
4 Animal lovers, environmental supporters, or those who enjoy socializing can all find meaningful ways to contribute. Volunteering can be formal, like helping charities, or informal, such as assisting a neighbor or joining online support groups. Even sharing your knowledge in areas like healthy eating or gardening can be meaningful.
Riley emphasizes that volunteering should feel rewarding rather than burdensome. Studies suggest dedicating just two hours a week is enough to gain mental health benefits. 5 Riley warns that frequent tears, anxiety, or feelings of hopelessness may signal burnout. In such cases, stepping back is important, and it’s perfectly okay to say no if you’re struggling.
A. This shift creates space for healing.
B. However, it’s crucial to maintain balance.
C. It’s vital for both sides’ growth and happiness.
D. Helping’s joy has been recognized since the 1980s.
E. Studies show volunteering with a strong purpose benefits health.
F. Volunteering aids emotional healing and boosts the increase of wealth.
G. Finding the right volunteer role depends on personal interests and skills.
11(24-25高三下·河南·开学考试)With busy lives, it can be hard to find time to volunteer. 1 Volunteering offers vital help to people in need, worthwhile causes and the community. But the benefits can be even greater for the volunteers.
2 Older adults, especially those who have retired, can find new meanings and directions in their lives by helping others. Whatever your age or life situation, volunteering can help take your mind off your own worries, keep you mentally stimulated, and add more passion to your life.
Volunteering helps counteract (抵消) the effects of stress, anger and anxiety. 3 Nothing relieves stress better than a meaningful connection to another person. Working with pets and other animals has also been shown to improve mood and reduce stress and anxiety.
Volunteering increases your social and relationship skills. While some people are naturally outgoing, others are shy and have a hard time meeting new people. Volunteering gives you the opportunity to practice and develop your social skills, since you are meeting regularly with a group of people with common interests. 4
Volunteering increases self-confidence. You are doing good for others and the community, which provides a natural sense of accomplishment. 5 And the better you feel about yourself, the more likely you are to have a positive view of your life and future goals.
A. Volunteering provides a sense of purpose.

Doing volunteer work you find meaningful and interesting can be a relaxing and energizing relaxation from your day- to- day routine of work, school, or family commitments. 1 .

Don’t be afraid to make a change. Don’t force yourself to do things that don’t suit you. Don’t force yourself to stick with volunteer work that you don’t enjoy. Talk to the organization about changing your focus or look for a different organization that’s a better fit.
