Not all great writers are great spellers.If you want to be published,
it's vital to submit a perfect,professionally presented manuscript
)1 No editor is likely to tolerate a writer who does not take the
trouble to spell words correctly.
I keep two reference books close-by on my desk:dictionary and the-
saurus(同义词词典).Idon't trust my laptop's spellchecker.2_Of
course,these days there are plenty of online dictionaries and
thesauruses,but I'm old-fashioned enough to prefer a hard cover and pa-
ges I can leaf through with my fingers.I use the Concise Oxford Diction-
ary and the Collins Thesaurus.
3 It should give you a precise definition of each word,thus dif-
ferentiating it from other words whose meanings are similar,but not i-
dentical.It will also usually show how the word is pronounced.
In addition,I have an old two-volume copy of the Shorter Oxford
Dictionary,picked up a few years ago in a bookshop sale for just 99
pence.Of course,with its 2,672 pages,it's not exactly short.It contains
around 163,000 words,plus word combinations and idiomatic phrases.4
However,if I need to check the origin of a word or to look up examples
of its usage,there's nothing better.
For well over a hundred years the most influential English
dictionary was Samuel Johnson's Dictionary of the English Language
published in 1755.“To make dictionaries is dull(乏昧)work,”wrote
Johnson,illustrating one definition of "dull".5 A few minutes spent
casting your eye over a page or two can be a rewarding experience.
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.

Overtourism Is For Real:How Can You Help?
【最新5年高考真题分类优化卷(26-Z)·英语(十)10-1】
Travel promotes understanding,expands our minds,makes us bet-
ter people,and boosts local economies and communities,but the rapid
growth of travel has led to overtourism in certain regions and destina-
tions.6 Certainly not.The loss of what travel offers would be unac-
ceptable in today's world.Here are some tips on making wise decisions
to minimize pressure on the places we visit and improve our experience.
Choose mindfully.Overvisited destinations are that way for a rea-
son:they're special.With so many online posts featuring the same
places,it's easy to feel like you're missing out.Go somewhere only when
the landscape,culture or food deeply draws you.7
Get creative.The best way to ease pressure on over-touristed des-
tinations is to go somewhere else.Though overtourism is described as a
problem affecting the entire world,it's actually concentrated to a small
number of extremely popular spots.That means you have tons of less-
visited options to choose from.8 Why not try a regional alternative
or check out a popular destination's lesser-known sights?
9 Minimize impact and maximize experience by skipping
major holidays or rush hour.You'll compete with fewer tourists,save
money,experience a different side of a popular place,and boost the e-
conomy when tourism is traditionally slower.
Visiting a place that others call home is a privilege().Do your
part to preserve what makes a destination special in the first place.10
_You may be amazed how much closer you'll feel to the people there.
A.Visit during off-peak times.
B.So,should we stop traveling?
C.Travel for you and no one else.
D.Can overtourism be avoided then?
E.You can still find relatively undiscovered places.
F.You'll find yourself virtually alone,or close to it.
G.Consider giving back to the communities you're visiting.

处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
In the past few years,online learning has become a significant part
of the university and college experience.11 But are all online courses
created equal?How can you be sure that digital learning is right for you?
12
We interviewed students and professors to get their advice about on-
line courses,The most obvious advantage of online learning is that you
can study anywhere and anytime.13 "I think a point that many peo-
ple lose sight of is how easy it can be to fall behind schedule,"says grad-
uate student Amanda Bindman.Before choosing to study online,
consider whether you're a self-motivated learner and if the material
【10-2】
seems interesting enough to keep you going.
The tip that comes up most often is simple:build online courses into
your weekly schedule,just like what you would do with in person cour-
ses.14 He noted that his online students usually end up with lower
grades.It is so easy to let an online course slide,but your grades will
suffer as a result.Be sure to schedule set times to watch your lectures,
read materials and contribute to online discussion boards.
15 A social connection is often a big part of learning.There are
things you can do to ease this problem.Jessica Pink,an undergraduate
student,suggests taking online courses with a friend,so you can moti-
vate each other to stay on track.You can also find students on the class
discussion board to organize a study group,or schedule in-person meet-
ings with your professor to discuss course concepts.
A.But that doesn't mean there aren't deadlines.
B.Your motivation should be your main concern.
C.Do you know that online courses are also part of your education?
D.Professor Alex Davidson teaches the same course in person and on-
line.
E.The chief complaint about online courses is that they lack human in-
teraction.
F.If you take an online course,what can you do to ensure the best possi-
ble grade?
G.A survey found that 29 percent of college students registered for
online courses.

Personal Forgiveness
Taking responsibility for mistakes is a positive step,but don't beat
yourself up about them.To err (is human.16 You can use the
following writing exercise to help you do this.
In a journal or on a piece of paper,put the heading "Personal
strengths."17 Are you caring?Creative?Generous?A good liste-
ner?Fun to be around?They don't have to be world-changing,just as-
pects of your personality that you're proud of.
At the top of a second page,put the heading "Acts of kindness.
On this one,list all the positive things you've done for others.It might
be the time when you helped a friend with their homework,when you
did the ironing without being asked,or when you baked cookies after the
family hadhad a tiring day.18
You could ask a friend or family member to help add to your list.19
That way,you could exchange thoughts on what makes each of you spe-
cial and the aspects of your personality that shine through.In fact,don't
【10-3】
wait until you've made a mistake to try this-it's a great way to boost
self-confidence at any time.
It's something of a cliché(陈词滥调)that most people learn not
from their successes but their mistakes.The thing is,it's true.20
We're all changing and learning all the time and mistakes are a positive
way to develop and grow.
A.A little self-forgiveness also goes a long way.
B.Now list all the characteristics you like about yourself.
C.They might even like to have a go at doing the exercise.
D.It's just as important to show yourself some forgiveness.
E.It doesn't mean you have to ignore what's happened or forget it.
F.Whatever it is,no matter how small it might seem,write it down.
G.Whatever the mistake,remember it isn't a fixed aspect of your per-
sonality.

As an artist who shares her journey on social media,I'm often
asked by curious followers how to begin an art journey.Unfortunately,
there is no magic list I can offer.I do remember,though,what it was
like to be a complete beginner.So I've put together some good tips for
starting an art journey.
·Start small..I suggest using a sketchbook(素描本)for small
studies.These small studies provide inspiration and may be a
springboard for more complex works in the future.21 You'll want
to look back on your journey to see how far you've come.
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.22
Continually challenge yourself to try something new.23 Ar
tistic growth can be a bit painful.Welcome to the club;we've all been
there.I love taking on challenges.I once took up a challenge to create a
painting every day for a month and post the works online.
·24_Seeking and accepting constructive feedback(反馈)is
crucial to growth.I post my work on social media and,in turn,have met
some of the kindest people.They make me feel valued and respected,no
matter my level of artistic ability.
The journey you're on won't follow a straight path.25 Push
through,give it time and put in the effort.You will harvest the rewards
of an artistic life.
A Get out of your comfort zone.
B.Make career plans and set goals.
【10-4】
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.
六、(2025·全国I卷)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。
With gas prices rising and airport security lines snaking longer than
ever,why not book your next domestic vacation on a train?Compared to
other alternatives,it's comfortable and relaxing.Here is some advice on
how to make a trip by rail as pleasant as possible.
Plan ahead.Most long-distance trains,especially the sleeping car ac-
commodations,sell out very quickly.26 But no matter when you
travel,it's a good idea to make your reservations at least 90 days in ad-
vance.
Use a travel agent.Consider turning your travel plan over to a travel
agent and letting him double-check all the details,make suggestions,
and then handle the actual reservations.A good one can sometimes find
you discounted tickets.27 Then you won't have to walk through
several cars on a moving train three times a day for your meals.
Bring a blanket.When you're riding on trains,you won't be
provided with a blanket for free,even if your trip is an overnight one.
28 In the summer in particular,the air conditioning can make them
quite cold.
Arrive early.Most trains operate just once a day and some run only
three times a week,so missing yours can be a disaster.29 Note:The
times listed on the schedules are departure times,not arrival times.
Have fun.30 Read a book,knit,do a crossword puzzle,or sim-
ply watch the world unfold outside the window.To calculate your speed
as you do,divide 3,600(the number of seconds in an hour)by the
number of seconds it takes you to travel one mile(the distance between
two mileposts).If it takes the train 53 seconds to travel one mile,you're
going 67.92 mph.
A.Train trips aren't for impatient types.
B.You'll have views from both sides of the train.
C.The temperature on rail cars is often hard to control.
D.That's particularly true during busy summer months.
E.You might have to wait longer than 24 hours to catch the next one.
F.Chances are the cost will be a lot less than the cost of one bedroom.
G.He may also book you in a sleeping car that's right next to the diner.

七、(2023·北京)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。
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.
31
When I talk to families as a scholar of higher education,they're of-
ten surprised that teaching excellence is not counted in rankings.32
Emerging research suggests that courses in lower-ranked universi-
ties,on average,scored higher on teaching than courses in higher-
ranked universities.33 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 (or funding.
34 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.
35 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 teach-
ing.
E.Efforts to improve teaching at the university level have recently emerged.
F.They're even more surprised at how teaching is undervalued by uni-
versities.
G.In fact,universities often shift emphasis from teaching to other rank-
ing lactors.
【10-6】of a wholly private,‘off-line'activity(印刷书籍
仍然提供了完全私人的‘离线’活动的机会)”可
推知,本文作者提到电子阅读器想表达的是印刷
书籍并没有完全过时。故选A。
【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。城市化让人
们越来越难以接触到自然,但一项新研究发现城市
中的野生自然对人类健康和幸福感具有重要影响。
研究团队对一座大型城市公园的游客进行调查,发
现与野生自然的互动可以创造出一种可用的语言,
帮助人们认识和参与最令人满意和有意义的活动。
该研究呼吁保护城市中的野生自然。
17.B细节理解题。根据第一段内容“As cities bal-
loon with growth,access to nature for people liv-
ing in urban areas is becoming harder to find.If
you're lucky,there might be a pocket park near
where you live,but it's unusual to find places in a
city that are relatively wild.(随着城市的飞速发
展,生活在城市地区的人们越来越难以接近大自
然。如果你幸运的话,你住的地方附近可能会有
一个袖珍公园,但在城市里找到相对天然的地方
是罕见的)”可知,文章开头作者讲述了一种现
象,在城市里,人们很雄找到野生的自然。故
选B。
l8.A推理判断题。根据第三段的“They surveyed
several hundred park-goers,asking them to submit
a written summary online of a meaningful interac-
tion they had with nature in the park.The re-
searchers then examined these submissions,
coding(编码)experiences into different
categories.(他们调查了数百名公园游客,要求他
们在网上提交一份书面总结,描述他们在公园里
与大自然有意义的互动。然后,研究人员检查了
这些提交的信息,将体验分为不同的类别)”可
知,研究人员按照公园游客提交的在公园里与大
自然互动的活动把游客分类,再根据第四段
"Across the 320 submissions,a pattern of cate-
gories the researchers call a 'nature language'
began to emerge.After the coding of all submis-
sions,half a dozen categories were noted most of-
ten as important to visitors.(在这320份提交的
作品中,一种被研究人员称为·自然语言’的分类
模式开始出现。在对所有提交的内容进行编码
【32
后,有六个类别被认为对游客最重要)”可推断,
给游客分类是为了区分不同的游客类别。故
选A。
l9.C推理判断题。根据第五段内容“Naming each
nature experience creates a usable language,
which helps people recognize and take part in the
activities that are most satisfying and meaningful
to them.For example,the experience of walking
along the edge of water might be satisfying for a
young professional on a weekend hike in the
park.Back downtown during a workday,they
can enjoy a more domestic form of this interaction
by walking along a fountain on their lunch break.
(命名每一种自然体验创造了一种可用的语言,
这有助于人们认识并参与到对他们来说最满意
和最有意义的活动中。例如,沿着水边散步的经
历可能会让一个年轻的专业人士在周末去公园
徒步旅行时感到满意。在工作日回到市中心,他
们可以在午休时沿着喷泉散步,享受一种更居家
的互动方式)”可知,本段讲述了自然体验创造一
种可用的语言,有助于人们识别并参与对自己来
说最满意最有意义的活动,接下来以一个年轻的
专业人士参与自然的方式举例说明,去公园时沿
着水边散步让他感到满意,回到市中心工作时他
可以通过沿着喷泉散步获得满足。因此推知,从
第五段的例子中我们可以知道一样的自然体验
可以呈现不同的形式。故选C。
20.B推理判断题。根据最后一段“‘We're trying
to generate a language that helps bring the
human-nature interactions back into our daily
lives.And for that to happen,we also need to
protect nature so that we can interact with it,
said Peter Kahn,a senior author of the study.
(“我们正试图创造一种语言,帮助将人类与自然
的互动带回我们的日常生活中。要做到这一点,
我们还需要保护自然,这样我们才能与它互动,”
该研究的资深作者彼得·卡恩说。)”可推断,彼
得·卡恩认为在我们与大自然互动之前我们应
该先要保护自然。故选B。

当你帮助朋友做作业的时侯,当你没有被要求却
主动熨衣服的时候,或者当你在家人累了一天之
后烤饼干的时候。)”可知,本段主要讲述的是列
出一些自己所做的好事。选项F“Whatever it is,
no matter how small it might seem,write it
down.(不管是什么,不管它看起来有多小,都要
【
3
把它写下来。)”与上文内容一致,讲述的是不管
你所做的事情不管有多小,只要是好的事情,都
记下来。故选F。
19.C根据空后内容“That way,you could
exchange thoughts on what makes each of you
special and the aspects of your personality that
shine through.(这样,你们就可以交换意见,谈谈
是什么让你们每个人都与众不同,以及你们个性
中闪光的方面。)”可知,空处提到了某种方式,这
种方式会使得你和朋友们一起交换意见等。选
C"They might even like to have a go at doing
the exercise.(他们甚至可能想试一试做练习。)”
符合语境,C项中的“They”与空前的“You could
ask a friend or family member to help add to your
1ist,(你可以让朋友或家人帮你增加你的列表内
容。)”中的“a friend or family member”保持一
致,同时选项C和下文“In fact,don't wait until
you've made a mistake to try this-it's a great
way to boost self-confidence at any time.(事实
上,不要等到你犯了错误才去尝试这个一这是
一个在任何时候都能增强自信的好方法。)”中的
“this”一致。故选C。
20.G根据空前内容“t's something of a cliche(陈
词滥调)that most people learn not from their
successes but their mistakes.The thing is,it's
true.(大多数人不是从他们的成功中学习,而是
从他们的错误中学习,这是陈词滥调。但事实
是,这是真的。)”可知,作者认为人是从错误中学
习。选项G“Whatever the mistake,remember it
isn't a fixed aspect of your personality..(不管你犯
了什么错误,记住这不是你性格中固定的一
面。)”符合语境,G项中的“isn't a fixed aspect of
your personality'”和空后内容“We're all changing
and learning all the time and mistakes are a posi-
tive way to develop and grow.(我们一直在改变
和学习,错误是一种积极的发展和成长的方
式。)”保持一致,指的都是犯错并不是性格中固
有的一面,我们是通过错误来成长。故选G。

2l.C根据前文“Start sma.I suggest using a
sketchbook(素描本)for small studies..These
small studies provide inspiration and may be a
springboard for more complex works in the
future.(从小开始。我建议使用一个素描本进行
小规模的学习和实践。这些小的学习和实践可
以提供灵感,并成为未来更复杂的作品的跳
板。)”以及后文“You'll want to look back on your
journey to see how far you've come.(你会想要回
顾一下自己的艺术之旅,看看自己已经取得多少
进步。)”可知,空处应是一个过渡句,从给出建议
使用一个素描本进行小规模的学习和实践,到回
顾自己的艺术之旅,所以C项“Don't throw away
your beginner art..(不要扔掉你的初学时的艺术
作品)”符合文意,和后文形成顺承关系。故选
C项。
22.G分析设空处,位于段尾,是对本段总结,根据
前文“Paint often and paint from life.There'sno
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.
(经常作画,且从生活中作画。没有什么比不断
练习更能提高你的艺术水平了。无论你是绘制
静物、肖像还是风景,都要尽可能地从真实生活
中去观察和绘制。)”可知,本段主要讲述不断练
习绘画,所以G项“You''ll develop that painting
muscle memory that only comes with repetition.
(你会逐渐形成只有通过反复练习才能获得的绘
画肌肉记忆)”是对前文的总结。故选G项。
23.A分析设空处,空处位于第二句,此处应是对前
一句的进一步解释,并同时引出后文,根据前文
"Continually challenge yourself to try something
new.(不断挑战自己,尝试新事物。)”以及后文
“Artistic growth can be a bit painful.(艺术的成
长可能会有点痛苦。)”可知,A项“Get out of your
comfort zone.(走出你的舒适区。)”是对前句的进
一步说明,和后文构成顺承关系。故选A项。
24.D分析设空处,位于段首,是本段的中心句,根
据后文“Seeking and accepting constructive feed-
back(反绩)is crucial to growth.I post my work
on social media and,in turn,have met some of
the kindest people.They make me feel valued and
respected,no matter my level of artistic ability.
(寻求并接受有建设性的反馈对于你的成长非常
【36
重要。我在社交媒体上发布我的作品,并因此结
识了一些最友好的人。无论我的艺术水平如何,
他们都让我感到受到了重视和尊重。)”可知,本
段主要讲述了是分享自己的作品,所以D项
"Share your work if you feel comfortable doing
s0.(如果你感觉舒适的话,分享你的作品)”符合
文意,是本段的中心句。故选D项。
25.E分析设空处,空处位于第二句,此处应是对前
一句的进一步解释,并同时引出后文,根据前文
"The journey you're on won't follow a straight
path.(你的旅程不会是一条笔直的道路。)”以及
后文“Push through,give it time and put in the
effort.You will harvest the rewards of an artistic
life.(坚持下去,给它时间,付出努力。你将收获
艺术生活的回报。)”可知,E项“You'll hit road
blocks,and you'll feel discouraged at times.

【语篇解读】本文是说明文。文章讲述一些关
于如何使坐火车旅行尽可能愉快的建议。
26.D根据上文“Plan ahead..Most long-distance
trains,especially the sleeping car accommodations,
sell out very quickly.(提前计划。大多数长途火
车,尤其是卧铺,很快就卖光了。)”以及下文“But
no matter when you travel,it's a good idea to
make your reservations at least 90 days in ad-
vance.(但无论你什么时候去旅行,最好至少提
前90天预订。)”可知,大多数长途火车的卧铺很
容易被定完,所以要提前安排预定,D项“在繁忙
的夏季尤其如此。”符合语境,D项中“busy
summer months'”与前后文呼应,说明忙碌的夏
季尤其需要提前计划。故选D项。
27.G根据上文“A good one can sometimes find
you discounted tickets..(一个好的旅行社有时可
以帮你找到打折的票。)”以及下文“Then you
won't have to walk through several cars on a
moving train three times a day for your meals.
(这样你就不必为了吃饭而每天三次在行驶的火
车上穿过几节车厢了。)”可知,好的旅行社帮你
预定,不仅可以找到打折的票,还可以节省从卧
铺到餐车的距离,G项中“book you in a sleeping
car that''s right next to the diner'”与前后文对应,
】
因此推断G项“他可能还会给你预订餐厅旁边的
卧铺车厢。”符合语境。故选G项。
28.C根据上文“When you're riding on trains,you
won't be provided with a blanket for free,even if
your trip is an overnight one.(当你乘坐火车时,
你不会免费获得一条毯子,即使你的旅行是过夜
的。)”以及下文“In the summer in particular,the
air conditioning can make them quite cold.(特别
是在夏天,空调会让他们很冷。)”可知,这里提到
了车厢内温度的问题,提醒乘客最好自备毛毯,C
项中“The temperature on rail cars”与前后文对
应,因此推断C项“列车上的温度通常很难控
制。”符合语境。故选C项。
29.E根据上文“Most trains operate just once a day
and some run only three times a week,so
missing yours can be a disaster,(大多数火车每
天只开一趟,有些火车一周只开三趟,所以错过
你的火车可能是一场灾难。)”以及下文“Note:
The times listed on the schedules are departure
times,not arrival times.(注意:时刻表上列出的
时间是出发时间,不是到达时间。)”可知,本段提
醒要提前安排时间,错过时间是很麻烦的事情,E
项中“You might have to wait longer”与前后文对
应,说明错过火车导致的结果,因此推断E项“你
可能要等上超过24小时才能赶上下一班。”符合
语境。故选E项。
30.A根据上文“Have fun.(玩得开心)”以及下文
"To calculate your speed as you do,divide 3,600
(the number of seconds in an hour)by the
number of seconds it takes you to travel one mile
(the distance between two mileposts).”[要计算
你的速度,用3600(一小时的秒数)除以你走一英
里(两个里程碑之间的距离)所花费的秒数。]”可
知,本段讲述如何度过乘车时间,A项中讲到火
车旅行不适合没有耐心的人与后文要计算时间,
用不同的方式打发时间对应,符合语境。故选
A项。
【语篇解读】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。
3l.D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
【37
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 u-
niversities,on average,scored higher on teaching
than courses in higher-ranked universities.
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。
32.F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 sur
prised at how teaching is undervalued by universi-
tis.(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。
33.G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 em
phasis from teaching to other ranking factors.
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。
34.B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 en
rolment(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。
35.C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.
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,作者认为想要强调教学质量还
需要更多努力。根据“Nevertheless'”可知,空处内
容和下文内容存在转折关系。选项C“Quality
teaching has been an important reputation-
building factor.(高质量的教学一直是建立声誉
的重要因素。)”强调了高质量教学的重要性,而
下文则话题一转,指出了高质量教学的难处。故
选C。

卷11七选五(二)
l.F上文“Basically,it means eating only as much
food as your body needs.You should feel satisfied
at the end of a meal,but not too full.(基本上,它
意味着只吃你身体需要的食物,你应该在用餐结
束时感到满足,但不要太饱。)”指出,进餐时不要
吃太饱,吃东西要适量。下文“But it doesn't mean
saying goodbye to the foods you love.(但这并不意
味着要告别你喜欢的食物。)”指出,适量进食不是
要放弃吃自己喜欢的食物。F项“对我们许多人来
说,节制意味着比现在少吃。”解释了何为适量进
食。承上启下,符合文意,选项中的“means”与下
文一致。故选F项。
2.C根据上文“Take your time..It's important to
slow down and think about food as something nu-
tritious rather than just something to eat in
between meetings.(慢慢来。放慢脚步,把食物看
作是有营养的东西,而不仅仅是会议间隙吃的东
西,这一,点很重要。)”可推知,本段主要建议读者
吃东西要细嚼慢咽,不要过于急躁。C项“上班路
上不要狼吞虎咽。”承接上文。符合文意。故选
C项。
3.E上文“It's more challenging to eat in
moderation if you have unhealthy snacks at the
ready,like cookies..(如果你已经准备好了不健康
的零食,比如饼干,那么适量食用就更具挑战性
了。)”指出,吃不健康的食物不利于适度饮食,E
项“相反,你应该选择健康的食物。”符合文意,建
议读者选择健康的食物。选项中的“healthy”与上
文中的“unhealthy'”相对应。故选E项。
4.B根据本段首句“Control emotional(情绪的)
eating..(控制情绪化进食。)”以及下文“Many of us
also turn to food to deal with unpleasant emotions
such as sadness,loneliness,or boredom.(我们中的
许多人也会求助于食物来处理不愉快的情绪,如
悲伤、孤独或无聊。)”可推知,本段主要建议读者
不要情绪化的进行暴饮暴食,要进行健康饮食。B
项“我们吃东西并不总是为了充饥。”指出有些人
吃东西并不总是为了充饥,引出下文有些人通过
食物发泄情绪,符合语境。故选B项。
