专题05 阅读理解（七选五） Passage 1 人与社会——历史、社会与文化 （24-25学年高一上·湖南师大附中·期末） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 You probably love watching movies. They can be funny, sad, imaginative, inspiring and so much more! There are so many possibilities and so many great movies to watch! The making of a movie usually begins with a script. 36 The producer is the person who is responsible for coordinating aspects of the film like budget and scheduling. The producer plans how the project will be carried out and he usually starts by hiring a director! 37 The director will usually identify themes or feelings that he or she wants the movie to give to its audience and then gather all the other people who will be needed, such as costume designers, makeup artists, cameramen, and, of course, actors! Next, shooting begins！ 38 Often a director wants to get several “ takes” (一次拍摄的电影镜头) of a scene or moment and usually only a few minutes of the movie are finished in one day's work. 39 So once filming is finished, the director must then work with editors to piece them all together, deciding which takes to use and adding in some special effects. The entire process from getting the script to editing the scenes generally takes months or even years. Once it is ready, the finished movie is then sent to movie theatres. 40 A．The actual filming can be a slow process. B．The way that movies are made has changed a lot over time. C．In movies the director's job is to bring the script to life on camera. D．Scenes are also usually not shot in order. E．People can watch and enjoy it in the theatre. F．It gets bought by a movie studio or a producer. G．The producer plays a very important role in making a movie. 【答案】 36. F 37. C 38. A 39. D 40. E 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了整个电影的拍摄过程，首先是剧本，然后是制片人做整体协调，接着是拍摄电影，最后是将成片送到电影院让人们观看和欣赏。 【解析】 36．F。根据前句“The making of a movie usually begins with a script.(电影的制作通常从剧本开始。)”和后句“The producer is the person who is responsible for coordinating aspects of the film like budget and scheduling.(制片人是负责协调电影各方面的人，比如进度和调度。)”可知，这里为承上启下句，电影最开始需要一个剧本，然后制片人把剧本买过来才可以拍摄。F项“It gets bought by a movie studio or a producer.(它被一个电影工作室或者一个制片人购买。)”最符合题意。G选项为干扰项，本文强调的是电影拍摄流程，而非讨论某个环节或负责人的重要性。故选F。 37．C。本空位于段首，为本段主题句。根据后文“The director will usually identify themes or feelings that he or she wants the movie to give to its audience and then gather all the other people who will be needed, such as costume designers, makeup artists, cameramen, and, of course, actors！(导演通常会确定他或她想要电影给观众的主题或感觉，然后召集所有其他需要的人，如服装设计师，化妆师，摄影师，当然，还有演员！)”可知，这一段介绍了导演的职责和导演的各项工作，所以C项“In movies the director's job is to bring the script to life on camera.(在拍电影中，导演的工作是通过镜头赋予剧本生命。)”最符合题意。故选C。 38．A。根据前句“Next, shooting begins！(接下来，开始拍摄！)”和后句“Often a director wants to get several ‘takes’(一次拍摄的电影镜头) of a scene or moment and usually only a few minutes of the movie are finished in one day's work.(通常，导演希望对一个场景或时刻进行多次拍摄，通常一天的工作只能完成电影的几分钟。)”可知，电影的拍摄是一个缓慢的过程，所以A项“The actual filming can be a slow process.(真正的电影拍摄是一个缓慢的过程。)”最符合题意。故选A。 39．D。根据后句“So once filming is finished, the director must then work with editors to piece them all together, deciding which takes to use and adding in some special effects.(因此，一旦拍摄完成，导演必须与剪辑师一起把它们拼凑在一起，决定哪些需要使用，并添加一些特效。)”可知，电影拍摄之后要进行剪辑，说明电影在拍摄时并不是按顺序拍摄的，所以D项“Scenes are also usually not shot in order.(镜头往往不是按照顺序来拍摄。)”最符合题意。故选D。 40．E。根据前句“Once it is ready, the finished movie is then sent to movie theatres.(一旦电影制作完成，就会被送到电影院。)”可知，等到整个过程完毕后，电影才会在电影院上映，人们才能在电影院观看、欣赏电影，所以E项“People can watch and enjoy it in the theatre.(人们可以在电影院观看或者欣赏电影。)”最符合题意。故选E。 Passage 2 人与自我——生活与学习 （24-25学年高一上·湖南郴州市·期末） Forgiving someone for negative behavior isn’t easy, especially when someone is you. We’re often a lot harder on ourselves than we are on others, which makes it hard to forgive ourselves for past wrongs. 36 . Here are several tips to forgive yourself for being negative, and make up for a wrong. Admit and accept what happened Admit what you’ve done is the first step to self-forgiveness. If you have many incidents or a long history of negative behavior, pick one behavior or one incident to start with. 37 . But remember that they’re part of learning and growing. Let go of your negative emotions Getting rid of negative feelings makes forgiveness possible. Negative emotions and limiting beliefs are stored in your nervous system, making it hard to keep beating yourself up about what happened. 38 . You can write a letter to yourself detailing all of your negative thoughts. You also can read it out loud to yourself, sit with it for a while, and then throw it out. 39 A sincere apology faces the situation directly. It’s uncomfortable to apologize for your actions, but your willingness to come forward and make up for a wrong will help you forgive yourself for whatever happened. Sincerely explain your actions to the person you’re really sorry for. Try to make things right If there’s anything you can do to make up for what you’ve done, do it. Atonement (赎罪) helps you forgive yourself and shows the people you’ve hurt that you’re sorry. 40 . Put your regret into action and do things to minimize or erase the damage you’ve done to your relationships. A. Ask for forgiveness B. Give yourself a chance C. Admitting mistakes makes you better D. It can feel embarrassing to admit mistakes E. This is surely better than punishing yourself F. You can find the feelings that hold you back and let them go G. Luckily, self-forgiveness is a skill that can be practised and improved 【答案】36. G 37. C 38. F 39. A 40. E 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了几个关于自我原谅，并弥补错误建议。 【解析】 36. 上文“Forgiving someone for negative behavior isn’t easy, especially when someone is you. We’re often a lot harder on ourselves than we are on others, which makes it hard to forgive ourselves for past wrongs.

If you have many incidents or a long history of negative behavior, pick one behavior or one incident to start with. (承认自己的所作所为是自我原谅的第一步。如果你有很多负面行为或长期负面行为的历史，选择一个行为或一个事件开始。)” 说明承认自己的错误对自我原谅很重要，C选项“承认错误会让你变得更好”承接上文，说明承认错误会变得更好。故选C项。 38. 根据本段的主题句“Let go of your negative emotions (释放你的负面情绪)” 可知，本段建议通过释放负面情绪自我原谅，结合下文“You can write a letter to yourself detailing all of your negative thoughts. You also can read it out loud to yourself, sit with it for a while, and then throw it out. (你可以给自己写一封信，详细描述你所有的消极想法。你也可以大声读给自己听，坐一会儿，然后把它扔掉。)” 列出了一些摆脱消极情绪的方法，由此可推断，此空应是引出下文，F选项“你可以找到那些阻碍你的感觉并释放它们”与本段主题一致，且引出下文如何找出阻碍你的感觉，符合语境。E.故选F项。 39. 下文“A sincere apology faces the situation directly.

Sincerely explain your actions to the person you’re really sorry for. (真诚的道歉直接面对现实。为自己的行为道歉是不舒服的，但你愿意站出来弥补错误的意愿会帮助你原谅自己发生的任何事情。真诚地向那个让你感到抱歉的人解释你的行为。)”说明要真诚地道歉，请求对方的原谅，A选项“请求原谅”能够概括本段，是本段主题。故选A项。 40. 上文“If there’s anything you can do to make up for what you’ve done, do it. Atonement (赎罪) helps you forgive yourself and shows the people you’ve hurt that you’re sorry. (如果你能做些什么来弥补你所做的一切，那就去做。赎罪可以帮助你原谅自己，并向你伤害过的人表明你的歉意。)” 讲述的是赎罪可以弥补自己所做的一切，并向伤害过的人表示歉意，结合下文的“Put your regret into action and do things to minimize or erase the damage you’ve done to your relationships. (将你的悔恨转化为行动，做一些事情来尽量减少或消除你对人际关系所造成的损害。)” 可知，这是对上文内容的进一步解释，由此可知，此空应是起到承上启下的作用，E选项 “这肯定比惩罚自己要好。”承接上文，其中的this指代的内容为上文中的做法，且下文进一步做出解释，符合语境。故选E项。 Passage 3 人与自我——生活与学习 （24-25学年高一上·湖南怀化市·期末） You gain happiness from your hobby — it doesn’t matter if it’s a board game or beekeeping — it will make you a better person in every aspect of your life. But where do you start? 36 Ask yourself how you want to feel. Hobbies present an escape. They can help you get out of your head and calm down. Research shows that there is a connection between leisure and well-being. 37 Mentally engaged? Relaxed? Socially connected? 38 Don’t put a lot of time and money in a new hobby immediately. If you’re wondering whether paint-balling might be a good fit, join an outing or two with a local Meet-up group. Or sign up for a one-time pottery class rather than a set of eight. Keep an open mind. Don’t ignore potential hobbies. Humans are wired to be curious and open. So next time someone hands you a flier (传单) or invites you to tag along to an event, seize the opportunity. It would introduce you to something you never guessed you’d love. Go back to school. Consider attending a class at a university or sign up for a lesson to learn more about a potential hobby. 39 Join a fiction writer group. Fascinated by family history? Take a genealogy (家谱) class. Plenty of e-courses are available free or for a reasonable price. Remove your guilt. When you feel guilty about spending time on leisure, you experience increased symptoms of depression and anxiety. Give yourself permission to do something that you like and keep in mind that if a hobby makes you happier and healthier, everyone around you will benefit. 40 A. Start small. B. Take up a new hobby. C. Always dreamed of writing a novel? D. Ask yourself how you want an activity to make you feel. E. The following are some reasons why you should have a hobby. F.

G 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了如何发现并培养那些能让我们更快乐、更健康的爱好。文章提出了一些建议，帮助读者探索可能喜欢的爱好。 【解析】 36. 上文“You gain happiness from your hobby — it doesn’t matter if it’s a board game or beekeeping — it will make you a better person in every aspect of your life. But where do you start?(你从你的爱好中获得快乐——无论是棋盘游戏还是养蜂——它会让你在生活的各个方面都变得更好。但是从哪里开始呢？)”提出了关于开始培养爱好的疑问，空处承上启下，说明下文是讲如何发现爱好的方法。F选项“这里是如何发现你还不知道你会喜欢的爱好”直接回答了这个问题，引出下文的具体建议，符合语境。故选F项。 37. 上文“Ask yourself how you want to feel.

When you feel guilty about spending time on leisure, you experience increased symptoms of depression and anxiety.

By paying kindness forward, we’ll build a community where we feel safer and more connected. 40 Studies have found that individuals who volunteer or regularly engage in kind acts have lower risks of developing heart disease.

Do one thing at a time 36 . In truth, it’s not the best way to get things done. Instead of jumping from one thing to the next like a ping-pong ball, stick with one task as long as you can. That concentrated time you spend on one thing will be far more productive. Instead, you will easily feel tired when trying to finish three things meantime Create a place for everything 37 . For example, toys go into a basket when they’re not in use. If so, tidying up your home gets a whole lot quicker. If you regularly have lots of things that have nowhere to go, it may be time to make some hard choices about what you really want to keep. Keep a consistent sleep schedule Get up at the same time every day, preferably all seven days a week. 38 . Sleeping late on the weekends is not bad. But it feels better to get regular rests every day. 39 Saying yes to everything can be a difficult habit to break for most of us. But learning how to draw a line is one of the best things you can do for yourself. You have the power not to agree to help everyone else with their problems. In this way, you spare lots of time for yourself. 40 . A. Set a realistic goal B. Learn how to say no C. Your time is just as valuable as everyone else’s D. Most of us sometimes do several things at the same time E. Imagine all things in your home have a place where they live F. Being efficient with the time you have is crucial for productivity G.

E. 考查语境理解及主题句。本段主题是“每样东西都有固定位置”，E项“想象你家里的所有东西都有一个固定的存放位置”与该主题一致，并引出后面的举例说明。 38. G. 考查语境理解及主题句。本段讲保持固定的睡眠时间表，G项“固定的睡眠时间表有助于形成身体的昼夜节律”与主题一致，并解释了为什么要保持规律作息。 39.

Usually, people prefer to be extroverts. From a young age, many of us learn the benefits of being an extrovert — those individuals are cheerful and charming, who always seem to be able to express their opinions easily. However, this is not the case for everyone. 36 Actually, we are taught to admire these characters early on and are often encouraged to play and communicate with other kids. Children are made to be more outgoing, 37 Although they may seem to enjoy the company of others, they may still get very tired in busy social situations. 38 Extroverts count on social interaction, while introverts are more comfortable with staying alone. They can concentrate better and are less likely to be disturbed by external environment. These allow them to dig deeper into their studies or work, 39 A study shows extreme loneliness does not affect introverts as much as extroverts. Lack of social contact may lead to extroverts being depressed and lonely. But it’s not just in an extreme situation that the advantages of being an introvert shine through. These people seem to have more time for reflection and thus can become more balanced. 40 And, they think before they speak. Finally, introverts are often fantastic observers, as sitting out of the focus can give you more time to watch the behaviour of others. So, whatever your personality, either introvert or extrovert, there are clear advantages to being either, and if you meet an introvert, you might just end up with an amazing friend. A. They also tend to be good listeners. B. So is being an extrovert really better? C. They usually like reading and drawing. D. with some people becoming fake extroverts. E. Then how about the benefits of being an introvert? F. achieving higher levels of understanding and creativity. G. In this way, we are more likely to build good relationships with others. 【答案】36.

There are alternatives to constant written communication, such as leaving voice messages or having a group chat. ·Practise empathy (共情) 38 . The friend who is remaining needs to be sensitive to all the additional time demand placed on the friend who has moved.

They can concentrate better and are less likely to be disturbed by external environment. These allow them to dig deeper into their studies or work, 39 A study shows extreme loneliness does not affect introverts as much as extroverts. Lack of social contact may lead to extroverts being depressed and lonely. But it’s not just in an extreme situation that the advantages of being an introvert shine through. These people seem to have more time for reflection and thus can become more balanced. 40 And, they think before they speak. Finally, introverts are often fantastic observers, as sitting out of the focus can give you more time to watch the behaviour of others.
