Passage 2 （24-25高二上·安徽亳州·期末） Studies are very tough, but students have lots of tools and tips, besides books of all kinds, on their fingertips. Researchers have offered simple and innovative solutions to any problem any student may face. 6 The Pomodoro Technique (番茄工作法) was developed by Francesco Cirillo in the late 1980s. 7 It involves breaking work into shorter periods of time, usually 25 minutes of focused work followed by a five-minute break. Each 25-minute working period is called a “pomodoro”, or a tomato. After four Pomodoros, a longer break of 15 to 30 minutes can be taken. This technique advocates short, focused study periods with regular breaks, making your study productive. Start by selecting a specific topic or task you want to focus on and learn. If the task is very large, break it down into manageable parts that can be done within a 25-minute period. 8 You can set the timer on your watch or apps like TomatoTimer designed specifically for this technique. 9 Do not let your mind wander and take no calls. If there is anything that distracts (使分心) you, note it down on a piece of paper to deal with it later. This will make it easy for you to get it out of your mind so you can focus on the task at hand. Once the timer rings, take a break. You may not feel the need for the break at first and want to continue studying longer, but say no to the urge. Step away from your study space. 10 After four Pomodoros, which is 100 minutes of studying, take a longer break of 15—30 minutes. This break is to give you a full recharge so that you can sit down for another study period. A．Here are rules to follow to make the most of it. B．Use a timer to keep track of your Pomodoro period. C．Its name came from the Italian word for “tomato”. D．Take a snack or drink and just relax to reset your focus and mind. E．Once your timer starts, concentrate on the task you want to complete. F．Try this method a few times and you will get used to it and understand it more. G．The Pomodoro Technique is one such method to help manage students’ time better. Passage 3 （23-24高二上·安徽五市联考·期末） Overcoming Fear of Failure Have you ever been so afraid of failing at something that you decided not to try at all? Or has fear of failure meant that, subconsciously, you undermined (削弱) your own efforts to avoid the possibility of a larger failure? 11 It’s important to realize that in everything we do, there’s always a chance that we’ll fail.

Lear n more about your traditions and how you can preserve them by means of the followings. Share your culture art. Each culture is carried by different forms of art. Museums often house items like clothing, music instruments, and visual artworks. However, beyond these exhibits, there exist tools crafted by ancestors, which present the traditions through generations’ wisdom. 21 Attend or organize major events. Your country, religious organizations, or immigrant ethnic groups almost certainly celebrate major holidays or cultural festivals. 22 If there aren’t any of those in your area, you can arrange your own events. Cook family recipes. Find some recipes from your grandmother’s cookbook. 23 As you knead dough (揉面) or follow the right amount of spices, you might remember meals from your childhood or holidays. Cooking your family recipes can help you inherit the family tradition and make it possibly passed down. Promote your dialects (方言). Language shapes culture to some degree. Therefore, promoting a dialect contributes to the protection of a certain culture. 24 So if you know one of them, help to spread it. With more and more people speaking, these dialects could be successfully preserved before they go extinct. Spend time with other members of the community. The best way to preserve your culture is to keep it alive. 25 Many aspects of culture are difficult to learn in books and museums, including body language, and humor. But you can get to the core (核心) of the cultural experience through daily communication. A．Participate to get a broader view of your culture. B．Culture helps people adapt to the world around them.

Passage 6 （23-24高二上·滁州中学·期末） What does it mean to take responsibility? What does being a responsible person mean? Responsibility is a virtue that everyone should have. But it seems that nowadays most people are willing to take convenience over responsibility. 26 After all, your world is a reflection of you and you alone. Being responsible means being aware. The first step of responsibility starts with being aware of your actions. Consciously or unconsciously, your actions are affecting those around you. 27 Be responsible and be mindful of every word you say and every act you commit. 28 Seize the present moment, and do all you can today to become a more responsible person. Your responsible acts today will lead to a responsible future. Being responsible involves humility (谦逊). Responsibility means accepting the consequences of your actions, even if it is the expense of your ego (自我). We all make mistakes. 29 By accepting responsibility, we can improve our integrity. Nothing says more of our integrity than the way we handle responsibility. Accept responsibility, learn from your mistakes, and move on with your life. 30 Don’t ever feel it is too late to accept responsibility for wrong actions in the past. Do what is right, and give your soul the peace it deserves. A．So what can you do to be more responsible? B．The matter is outside our area of responsibility. C．Do it with a sense of pride and a spirit of adventure. D．Don’t ignore what you do to others or how you hurt them. E．Taking responsibility means attending to the needs of the present. F．It is a natural part of life, especially when we act without paying much attention. G．That is the healthiest and most beneficial way to accept our mistakes and failures. Passage 7 （24-25高二上·安徽合肥·期末） One of my patients recently asked, “Am I depressed? I just can’t seem to feel any joy in life.” Despite having no major stressors, life had lost its meaning for him. 31 Everyone has bad days or moments of feeling down. When joylessness becomes common occurrence, it may signal a condition known as “anhedonia”, which makes it difficult to experience positive emotions such as happiness or pleasure. When someone experiences it, their world may seem grey. 32 However, the situation isn’t hopeless. There are steps we can take to bring joy back into our lives. One of the first steps is recognizing and dealing with joy blockers. These include emotions like guilt, anxiety, or shame. 33 Working through them can help us reconnect with positive feelings that have been buried beneath the surface. 34 Positive emotions are able to spread from one individual to another. A simple praise,spoken with sincerity, can have a great impact on both the giver and the recipient. It can brighten someone’s day, boost their confidence, and in turn, make us feel good about ourselves. What’s more, studies show that feeling joy for others can also reduce symptoms of depression. It’s a win-win situation, where by focusing on the happiness of those around us, we end up benefiting ourselves as well. We can also practice “relational savoring”, which means actively enjoying and appreciating positive moments, no matter how small. In our fast-paced lives, we often rush from one task to another, missing out on the simple pleasures that surround us every day. It could be the warmth of a morning hug from a loved one, the sound of a child’s laughter, or the sight of a beautiful flower blooming in the garden. 35 A．You will feel better with support. B．Even achieving goals feels unimportant. C．If you’ve ever felt this way, you’re not alone. D．Another powerful way to generate joy is by praising others. E．Joylessness never comes alone, but is accompanied by lots of other bad feelings. F．Such emotions can prevent us from accessing joy even without our awareness. G．By stopping for a moment to enjoy the moments, we can increase our overall well-being. 主题02 人与自然——环境保护 Passage 1 （23-24高二上·安徽临泉·期末） It is believed that it’s dangerous to have plants in the bedroom. Plants take in carbon dioxide (CO₂) and produce oxygen (氧气) in the day. 36 . The build-up of CO₂ is a real problem for indoor air quality, which has been shown to influence health, so it is easy to see where the concern comes from. But to consider whether sharing our bedroom with our plants can harm health, we should consider three things. Firstly, how much CO₂ do plants produce at night compared with what they take in during the day? 37 For the answer depends on everything from species to light levels and even room temperature. Thankfully, in 2015, researchers at Turkey’s Kastamonu University found that large houseplants take in between six and eight times as much CO2 in the day as they produce at night. 38 A single human breath contains around 40, 000 ppm of CO2, more than 10 times the effect a plant could have in 8 hours, so you might want to throw your partner out before your plants. Finally, we don’t live in the sealed (密封的) boxes in which these studies are carried out. 39 The air is even exchanged when we move around. According to one recent review, we need houseplants to keep indoor air fresh, and to fight some pollution. 40 Let’s enjoy houseplants whenever we like, because if sleeping near plants were bad for our health, camping in a forest would be deadly. A．This is hard to answer. B．So, they are quite necessary. C．The question has more than one answer. D．Besides, we often share a room with someone else. E．Indoor air is being exchanged through doors and windows. F．At night they compete with us for the air we breathe while asleep. G．Secondly, compare the influence of a plant with that of a person sharing a room. Passage 2 （24-25高二上·安徽临泉·期末） World Wildlife Day is celebrated each year on March 3rd. This is a day that has the goal of informing the general public about the plants and wild animals in the world. So you can do many things to celebrate this day. As we all know, litter can be harmful to birds, fish, and other wildlife. Therefore, make an effort to pick up any litter that you see. 41 You can visit an aquarium or zoo near you, because aquariums and zoos help a lot with endangered species, allowing their populations to increase. 42 Thus, World Wildlife Day is the perfect day to pay a local aquarium or zoo a visit. If possible, try to learn about the plants and wild animals near you. You can do some research about local wildlife. You can also research some of the threats to these plants and wild animals. 43 For example, if one of the primary threats an animal faces is litter, be sure to deal with it properly, and pick up any litter you see. If you like, you can plant a garden with native tree, bush and flower species. 44 To plant them in the garden accordingly, it is necessary to do some research beforehand on trees, bushes and flowers that are native to your area and where they would grow best. 45 There are a variety of organizations that help wildlife in different ways. If you have a specific species that you’d like to support, or even if you’d just like to help wildlife in general, there might be an organization somewhere that you can join and assist with their efforts. A．Every year, there is a theme for World Wildlife Day. B．If the threat they face is caused by human, try to help reduce it. C．These may be the only places to find certain endangered animals. D．Additionally, it’s a good way to join an organization that helps wildlife. E．These can help provide wild animals with a place where they can shelter. F．Databases online can help us find the plants which are native to our area. G．And you’d better make sure that you reduce the amount of litter you create. 主题03 人与社会——旅游 Passage 1 （23-24高二上·皖中联盟·期末） When it comes to traveling with kids, whether it’s a short weekend getaway — a road trip or a luxurious camping adventure, the challenges increase. 46 . They will ensure you’re well-prepared for any situation. Travel at your family’s pace（节奏） 47 , but that’s perfectly fine. Take the opportunity to explore together at a pace that suits your family. It’s about the experience, so you can plan one main activity and leave the rest of the day for exploration. Involve kids in the planning process It’s a great idea to engage your children in the vacation planning process. 48 . You can make it fun by creating family flashcards with interesting facts about the places you’ll visit. This not only gets them excited but also educates them about the approaching adventure. 49 Traveling to new places can be a fantastic educational experience for both parents and kids. The educational travel has gained popularity, with hotels and tour companies offering experiences that teach something new. Encourage your children to explore their interests and choose activities and trips that satisfy their curiosity. Plan with a travel company Planning a trip with kids can be quite challenging. While some parents enjoy organizing every detail, others find it stressful.

Maybe you thought your physician would ask you about something, but they didn’t, so you weren’t sure if you should bring it up. Or a symptom (症状) felt like a big deal to you, but they brushed it off. How to get the best care from your physician? 1 Prepare for an appointment Most patients feel that the doctor is all-knowing, and that in the medical relationship they are powerless. 2 This is a partnership. Doctors and patients should work together as “co-detective”. And that detective work will be easier for you and your doctor if you come to your appointment ready. You can begin with thinking about your current problems as well as giving your medical history. 3 If you feel dismissed by your doctor, don’t hesitate to voice your opinions. Some helpful phrases can be used in those moments: “This is limiting my life,” and “I think that there’s something going on and I’m having a hard time putting it together. I need your help.” You can also ask for a referral (转诊) to see another specialist and bring a friend or family member to your next appointment to ask questions or take notes. Take information home with you Taking written or recorded information home with you can help you remember information and instructions any time you need to. Your doctor is a good source of accurate information you can trust. You can take home with you the notes that you have taken during the appointment. 4 If necessary, you can even take brochures or other educational materials. Follow up with your doctor 5 , like taking medicine, scheduling a test or scheduling an appointment with a specialist. If you’re confused or if you’ve forgotten some information, it’s ok to contact your doctor. A．Ask follow-up questions. B．Here’s how to talk to your physician. C．Your doctor can write all instructions down for you. D．But your physician can’t read your mind. E．Make sure to follow any instructions your doctor gave you. F．Here are some tips on making the most of a diagnosis (诊断). G．You can also take home any written instructions from your doctor. Passage 2 （23-24高二上·淮北一中·期末） Have you ever watched a silent television show and tried to predict how the characters were feeling according to their body language? The ability to understand people’s body language is a skill that’s almost born inside of us. 6 . This skill develops as we grow older, which is called non-verbal communication. Body language helps us communicate what we’re feeling without saying much at all. Think about a time when you were very angry. Did you clench (咬紧) your teeth? Did your palms get sweaty when you were anxious? In most cultures, these cues (线索) that reveal emotional states are quite common. But gestures have specific meanings across different cultures. Take touch for example. 7 . In India, however, the ideal way to greet someone is by touching their feet, not by shaking their hand. In some places, gestures meaning hellos and goodbyes and touches indicating friendship and love are all the same. But the problem arises because some gestures have vastly different meanings in different cultures. For example, the “OK” symbol is used as a superb symbol in India, but in Turkey, this symbol is considered offensive (冒犯性的). 8 . So, what should we do? Should we not use gestures at all? Of course not. 9 . No matter how much we try to stop ourselves, we will end up communicating non-verbally in some way or another. 10 , you’d better make a quick Google search or turn to a comprehensive book to better interact with the locals, and avoid offending them during your stay! A．It was a very kind and thoughtful gesture. B．So, the next time you decide to travel to another country C．When you flash the “OK” sign there, you’re asking for a fight. D．They also use a system of sounds and body language to communicate. E．Even the smallest children can figure out when their mothers are mad. F．Gestures are something that comes with the language of communication. G．A general way of saying “Hello” in western culture is a brief handshake. Passage 3 （23-24高二上·合肥六校联盟·期末） Elevator shoes(增高鞋) have become well-known as more people are interested in buying a pair when choosing a particular type of footwear. These shoes are fantastic for almost everyone. 11 The following reasons explain why it is happening. Suitable height Unlike other noticeable height-enhancing methods, elevator shoes provide an effortless and instant solution. 12 With the height-increasing technology hidden within the shoes, you can confidently adjust the height without drawing any attention. Improved confidence Studies have shown that taller individuals are often regarded as more authoritative, competent, and attractive. You may sometimes feel a bit insecure about your short height. If that is the case, you can go for this type of footwear. 13 Increased comfort level In today’s fast-paced world, people are becoming increasingly aware of the importance of comfort when it comes to footwear. Most people think that elevator shoes are uncomfortable. 14 Such a feature might not be available for some types of footwear which might look good, but lack comfort. 15 Whether it is a formal business meeting, a relaxing party, or a special event, elevator shoes come in a wide range of styles, from dress shoes to sports shoes, to suit different preferences and dress requirements.

F．Confidence is crucial, especially when one is doing something new in their life. G．It can make you focus on your goals without any concerns about your height. Passage 4 （24-25高二上·芜湖一中·期末） Fake news spreads rapidly, especially on social media. As students progress in their education, they need to be able to distinguish fake news stories from true, fact-checked journalism. 16 Check the history and reputation of the author and publication Most fake news sites have just existed for a short time. 17 If it’s sharing a popular article disgracing a politician running for office in 2020, for example, but the website itself is newly-created, it’s likely that the article and site are not trustworthy. 18 When a big news event occurs, multiple media organizations will report it. Search for other publications that have posted stories about the news. If no other news outlets are reporting the story, it’s probably a fake. Be cautious about sensational (耸人听闻的) headlines Fake news is designed to strike an immediate emotional chord in audiences by using an alarming headline. Often people share such a story based merely on the headline. 19 If a headline seems ridiculous, or simply lacks the ring of truth, search for reliable sources that confirm the accuracy of the story. Carefully examine photos and other media accompanying the stories 20 If you see a shocking or particularly engaging photo or video in an article, take a moment to determine whether it is intended only to arouse an emotional reaction in readers. Use a service such as TinEye to find where else it appears. Often, there is an original version that tells a different story. A．They even haven’t read the article itself. B．Here’s our advice on how to spot a fake. C．Compare the news with some other big news. D．Determine whether other media are reporting the same news. E．Fake news providers often use eye-catching photos or videos. F．Photos and videos used in news are usually very beautiful and attractive. G．You can find out that by entering its address in the Domain Age Checker. Passage 5 （23-24高二上·六安二中·期末） A study session(会议) with friends can be an excellent way to learn. 21 , a study session can help you to fully understand difficult materials, prepare for exams, and finally earn strong grades. By making careful choices when you are forming the group, you can be sure your study session with friends will be successful. ● 22 . One of the most effective ways to learn is actually to teach other people. Try giving each member a different task and take turns teaching each other. This greatly benefits both the “teacher” as well as the whole group. ●Take quizzes(小测试). Another great aspect of working with a group is the ability to quiz one another. You can simply ask each other questions out loud. 23 . Or, different members can create quizzes for different parts and give them to the other members to take. ●Share notes. Three or four heads are better than one! 24 . When you put all of that together, you’ll walk away with a much stronger understanding of the material. ●Answer each other’s questions. Knowing what you don’t understand and putting that into a question for your group is an excellent exercise. 25 . ●Create a routine(常规). If you can make some kind of routine within your study session, you are likely to be more productive. It may take a little time. You may have to try out different methods with your group to see what works for you. A．Teach one another B．When it comes to friendship C．If you make it a regular event D．This means quizzing one another in speech E．The first question can be related to self-introduction F．Try exchanging the notes that you each take in class G．The attempt to answer each other’s questions is great for every member and the group. Passage 6 （23-24高二上·合肥一中·期末） We’ve all been there—you’ve sent a message and it’s marked “read”, but you haven’t heard anything back. What’s the deal? While being left on read (已读不回) can be confusing, it’s also pretty common. 26 Here are a few tips. Expect the best. Remind yourself that the person is probably just busy. Ask yourself if you actually know their schedule. There could be some time commitments you aren’t aware of. Here are a few other reasons for a delayed response. 27 They put their phone away to focus on work or school. They accidentally forgot to reply. Maybe they thought about what they wanted to say but didn’t actually text it. Resist the temptation (诱惑) to double-text. 28 If you send a lot of follow-up texts, it’ll be hard for them to keep up and they might get stressed. Leave them with just one text to catch up on—the other person will probably appreciate your patience. Read over your previous messages. See if there are any confusing texts that you need to clarify. It’s okay if you review your message again and notice that it might have been a little unclear—it happens! 29 30 Keep it out of sight and get some peace of mind. Don’t let it upset or confuse you.

Some schools offer team sports that allow you to make friends with your fellow students. Soccer, track and field, basketball and football, can all make school have a little more fun. 37 If you don’t want to play sports, consider joining in the games and cheering for your team with your friends. 38 One of the most stressful parts of school can be making sure you have everything you’re supposed to have. Where’s your English homework? Where’s that math assignment? Is your pencil sharp? The less you have to worry about these little things, the more you’ll be able to focus and enjoy school.

Researchers have offered simple and innovative solutions to any problem any student may face. 6 The Pomodoro Technique (番茄工作法) was developed by Francesco Cirillo in the late 1980s. 7 It involves breaking work into shorter periods of time, usually 25 minutes of focused work followed by a five-minute break. Each 25-minute working period is called a “pomodoro”, or a tomato. After four Pomodoros, a longer break of 15 to 30 minutes can be taken. This technique advocates short, focused study periods with regular breaks, making your study productive. Start by selecting a specific topic or task you want to focus on and learn. If the task is very large, break it down into manageable parts that can be done within a 25-minute period. 8 You can set the timer on your watch or apps like TomatoTimer designed specifically for this technique. 9 Do not let your mind wander and take no calls. If there is anything that distracts (使分心) you, note it down on a piece of paper to deal with it later. This will make it easy for you to get it out of your mind so you can focus on the task at hand. Once the timer rings, take a break. You may not feel the need for the break at first and want to continue studying longer, but say no to the urge. Step away from your study space. 10 After four Pomodoros, which is 100 minutes of studying, take a longer break of 15—30 minutes.

I just can’t seem to feel any joy in life.” Despite having no major stressors, life had lost its meaning for him. 31 Everyone has bad days or moments of feeling down. When joylessness becomes common occurrence, it may signal a condition known as “anhedonia”, which makes it difficult to experience positive emotions such as happiness or pleasure. When someone experiences it, their world may seem grey. 32 However, the situation isn’t hopeless. There are steps we can take to bring joy back into our lives. One of the first steps is recognizing and dealing with joy blockers. These include emotions like guilt, anxiety, or shame. 33 Working through them can help us reconnect with positive feelings that have been buried beneath the surface. 34 Positive emotions are able to spread from one individual to another. A simple praise,spoken with sincerity, can have a great impact on both the giver and the recipient. It can brighten someone’s day, boost their confidence, and in turn, make us feel good about ourselves. What’s more, studies show that feeling joy for others can also reduce symptoms of depression. It’s a win-win situation, where by focusing on the happiness of those around us, we end up benefiting ourselves as well. We can also practice “relational savoring”, which means actively enjoying and appreciating positive moments, no matter how small. In our fast-paced lives, we often rush from one task to another, missing out on the simple pleasures that surround us every day. It could be the warmth of a morning hug from a loved one, the sound of a child’s laughter, or the sight of a beautiful flower blooming in the garden. 35 A．You will feel better with support. B．Even achieving goals feels unimportant. C．If you’ve ever felt this way, you’re not alone. D．Another powerful way to generate joy is by praising others. E．Joylessness never comes alone, but is accompanied by lots of other bad feelings. F．Such emotions can prevent us from accessing joy even without our awareness.

Plants take in carbon dioxide (CO₂) and produce oxygen (氧气) in the day. 36 . The build-up of CO₂ is a real problem for indoor air quality, which has been shown to influence health, so it is easy to see where the concern comes from. But to consider whether sharing our bedroom with our plants can harm health, we should consider three things. Firstly, how much CO₂ do plants produce at night compared with what they take in during the day? 37 For the answer depends on everything from species to light levels and even room temperature. Thankfully, in 2015, researchers at Turkey’s Kastamonu University found that large houseplants take in between six and eight times as much CO2 in the day as they produce at night. 38 A single human breath contains around 40, 000 ppm of CO2, more than 10 times the effect a plant could have in 8 hours, so you might want to throw your partner out before your plants. Finally, we don’t live in the sealed (密封的) boxes in which these studies are carried out. 39 The air is even exchanged when we move around. According to one recent review, we need houseplants to keep indoor air fresh, and to fight some pollution. 40 Let’s enjoy houseplants whenever we like, because if sleeping near plants were bad for our health, camping in a forest would be deadly. A．This is hard to answer. B．So, they are quite necessary. C．The question has more than one answer. D．Besides, we often share a room with someone else. E．Indoor air is being exchanged through doors and windows. F．At night they compete with us for the air we breathe while asleep. G．Secondly, compare the influence of a plant with that of a person sharing a room. 【答案】36．F 37．A 38．G 39．E 40．B 【导语】本文为一篇说明文，说明了和植物共用卧室是否会损害健康，并告诉我们植物对我们的重要性。 36．根据前文“It is believed that it’s dangerous to have plants in the bedroom. Plants take in carbon dioxide (CO₂) and produce oxygen (氧气) in the day.(人们认为卧室里有植物是危险的。植物在白天吸收二氧化碳(CO₂)并产生氧气)”及后文“The build-up of CO₂ is a real problem for indoor air quality, which has been shown to influence health, so it is easy to see where the concern comes from.(二氧化碳的积累是影响健康的室内空气质量的真正问题，因此很容易看出担忧的来源)”可知，空处描述人们认为卧室夜间摆放植物危害的原因，F选项“在晚上，它们与我们争夺我们睡觉时呼吸的空气”解释原因。故选F项。 37．空前“Firstly, how much CO₂ do plants produce at night compared with what they take in during the day? (首先，与白天吸收的二氧化碳相比，植物在晚上产生多少CO₂？)”提出问题，表明“植物在夜间产生的二氧化碳与白天吸收的相比有多少？”后文“For the answer depends on everything from species to light levels and even room temperature.(因为答案取决于各种因素，从物种到光照水平，甚至是室温)”可知，这个问题是难以回答的，A选项“这个问题很难回答”符合语境。故选A项。 38．根据前文firstly，后文finally及后文“A single human breath contains around 40, 000 ppm of CO2, more than 10 times the effect a plant could have in 8 hours, so you might want to throw your partner out before your plants.(一个人的呼吸中含有大约40000ppm的二氧化碳，是一株植物在8小时内释放的二氧化碳的10倍以上，所以你可能想在你的植物之前把你的伴侣扔出去)”可知，该空应讲第二点，且把植物和人作比较，G选项“其次，比较一棵植物和一个人共用一个房间的影响”符合语境，引起下文。故选G项。 39．前文“Finally, we don’t live in the sealed (密封的) boxes in which these studies are carried out.(最后，我们并不生活在进行这些研究的密封盒子里)”及后文“The air is even exchanged when we move around.(当我们走动时，空气也在交换)”可知，E选项“室内空气通过门窗进行交换”表明与植物对比，人的生活空间与外界相连，没有处在研究实验条件下，空气是流通的，且解释下一句。故选E项。 40．根据前文“According to one recent review, we need houseplants to keep indoor air fresh, and to fight some pollution.(根据最近的一篇综述，我们需要室内植物来保持室内空气新鲜，并对抗一些污染)”可知，植物对我们是重要的，B选项“所以，它们是非常必要的”中they指代植物，符合前文语境。故选B项。 Passage 2 （24-25高二上·安徽临泉·期末） World Wildlife Day is celebrated each year on March 3rd.

Maybe you thought your physician would ask you about something, but they didn’t, so you weren’t sure if you should bring it up. Or a symptom (症状) felt like a big deal to you, but they brushed it off. How to get the best care from your physician? 1 Prepare for an appointment Most patients feel that the doctor is all-knowing, and that in the medical relationship they are powerless. 2 This is a partnership. Doctors and patients should work together as “co-detective”. And that detective work will be easier for you and your doctor if you come to your appointment ready. You can begin with thinking about your current problems as well as giving your medical history. 3 If you feel dismissed by your doctor, don’t hesitate to voice your opinions. Some helpful phrases can be used in those moments: “This is limiting my life,” and “I think that there’s something going on and I’m having a hard time putting it together. I need your help.” You can also ask for a referral (转诊) to see another specialist and bring a friend or family member to your next appointment to ask questions or take notes. Take information home with you Taking written or recorded information home with you can help you remember information and instructions any time you need to. Your doctor is a good source of accurate information you can trust. You can take home with you the notes that you have taken during the appointment. 4 If necessary, you can even take brochures or other educational materials. Follow up with your doctor 5 , like taking medicine, scheduling a test or scheduling an appointment with a specialist.

The ability to understand people’s body language is a skill that’s almost born inside of us. 6 . This skill develops as we grow older, which is called non-verbal communication. Body language helps us communicate what we’re feeling without saying much at all. Think about a time when you were very angry. Did you clench (咬紧) your teeth? Did your palms get sweaty when you were anxious? In most cultures, these cues (线索) that reveal emotional states are quite common. But gestures have specific meanings across different cultures. Take touch for example. 7 . In India, however, the ideal way to greet someone is by touching their feet, not by shaking their hand. In some places, gestures meaning hellos and goodbyes and touches indicating friendship and love are all the same. But the problem arises because some gestures have vastly different meanings in different cultures. For example, the “OK” symbol is used as a superb symbol in India, but in Turkey, this symbol is considered offensive (冒犯性的). 8 . So, what should we do? Should we not use gestures at all? Of course not. 9 . No matter how much we try to stop ourselves, we will end up communicating non-verbally in some way or another. 10 , you’d better make a quick Google search or turn to a comprehensive book to better interact with the locals, and avoid offending them during your stay! A．It was a very kind and thoughtful gesture. B．So, the next time you decide to travel to another country C．When you flash the “OK” sign there, you’re asking for a fight. D．They also use a system of sounds and body language to communicate. E．Even the smallest children can figure out when their mothers are mad. F．Gestures are something that comes with the language of communication. G．A general way of saying “Hello” in western culture is a brief handshake. 【答案】6．E 7．G 8．C 9．F 10．B 【导语】本文是说明文。文章主要介绍了什么是肢体语言及不同地区肢体语言的差异。 6．根据上文“The ability to understand people’s body language is a skill that’s almost born inside of us. (理解他人肢体语言的能力几乎是我们天生的技能。)”可知，上文告诉我们理解他人肢体语言的能力几乎是我们天生的技能，E项意为“即使最小的孩子也能知道妈妈什么时候生气了。”选项能够承接上文，举例说明理解他人肢体语言的能力几乎是我们天生的技能，即使最小的孩子也能通过肢体语言知道妈妈什么时候生气了。故选E。 7．根据下文“In India, however, the ideal way to greet someone is by touching their feet, not by shaking their hand. (然而，在印度，问候某人的理想方式是触摸他们的脚，而不是握手。)”可知，下文告诉我们在印度，问候某人的理想方式是触摸他们的脚，G项意为“在西方文化中，说“你好”的一般方式是简短的握手。”选项能够引起下文，分别介绍了西方和印度问候某人的方式，西方是简短的握手，印度不是握手，而是触摸他们的脚。故选G。 8．根据上文“For example, the “OK” symbol is used as a superb symbol in India, but in Turkey, this symbol is considered offensive (冒犯性的). (例如，“OK”符号在印度被用作极好的符号，但在土耳其，这个符号被认为是冒犯性的。)”可知，上文告诉我们在土耳其，“OK”符号被认为是冒犯性的，C项意为“当你在那里闪烁“OK”标志时，你是在找茬打架。”选项能够承接上文，在土耳其，“OK”符号被认为是冒犯性的，你在那里闪烁“OK”标志时，你是在找茬打架。故选C。 9．根据上文“So, what should we do? Should we not use gestures at all? Of course not. (那么，我们该怎么办？我们不应该使用手势吗？当然不是。)”可知，上文提出问题，既然各地的手势语不同，我们不应该使用手势吗？F项意为“手势是伴随着交流语言而来的东西。”选项能够承接上文，我们应该使用手势语，因为手势是伴随着交流语言而来的东西。故选F。 10．根据下文“you’d better make a quick Google search or turn to a comprehensive book to better interact with the locals, and avoid offending them during your stay! (你最好在谷歌上快速搜索，或者求助于一本综合性的书，以便更好地与当地人互动，避免在逗留期间冒犯他们！)”可知，下文告诉我们可以通过在谷歌上快速搜索，或者求助于一本综合性的书来了解当地人的肢体语言，B项意为“所以，下次你决定去另一个国家旅行时”，选项能够引起下文，下次你决定去另一个国家旅行时，先在谷歌上快速搜索，或者求助于一本综合性的书来了解当地人的肢体语言，以便更好地与当地人互动。故选B。 Passage 3 （23-24高二上·合肥六校联盟·期末） Elevator shoes(增高鞋) have become well-known as more people are interested in buying a pair when choosing a particular type of footwear.

As students progress in their education, they need to be able to distinguish fake news stories from true, fact-checked journalism. 16 Check the history and reputation of the author and publication Most fake news sites have just existed for a short time. 17 If it’s sharing a popular article disgracing a politician running for office in 2020, for example, but the website itself is newly-created, it’s likely that the article and site are not trustworthy. 18 When a big news event occurs, multiple media organizations will report it.

Carefully examine photos and other media accompanying the stories 20 If you see a shocking or particularly engaging photo or video in an article, take a moment to determine whether it is intended only to arouse an emotional reaction in readers. Use a service such as TinEye to find where else it appears. Often, there is an original version that tells a different story. A．They even haven’t read the article itself.
