Ⅰ.阅读理解
(2025·浙江卷1月)When I was a child I was often told what not to eat.“You don't want to get fat” was on constant repeat throughout my childhood.It really messed up my relationship with food—something that took me years to overcome.Because of this,I'm careful not to connect what my kids weigh with their worth as people.I encourage my daughter to make healthy snack choices and often dissuade (劝阻) her from a second dessert.But one day when I heard her saying “I think I'm too fat”, my heart sank.It made me wonder if giving her advice on snacks was having an unintentionally negative impact.
According to Charlotte Markey,a professor of psychology,food is one of the rare subjects where,as parents,saying less is more.“There are so many things in parenting that are good to talk through,but I'm not convinced that food is one of them,” she says.“It just creates some worries and insecurities in kids that aren't necessarily healthy.”
Instead,she recommends applying a wellknown concept among nutrition experts called the “Division of Responsibility”, where parents provide a variety of mostly healthy foods to their kids at fixed times,and the kids themselves decide what and how much they want to consume—even if that means occasionally eating more cookies than carrots.
Allowing kids to eat what they want also exposes them to the natural consequences of their decisions.“When your child says,‘My stomach hurts,’ you can say,‘Well you had a lot of sugary foods and you might feel better if you made some other choices,’” says Markey.“Let them feel like they have some control over it.”
I've been trying out these strategies and I've found that when I'm less restrictive,they do make better decisions.“Feeding is a long game,” says Markey.“The food you have available makes a huge difference.Even if they don't eat it,they're seeing it.And then all of a sudden it clicks.”
1.What can be inferred about the author from the first paragraph?
A.She is upset by her kids' weight.
B.She is critical of the way she was fed.
C.She is interested in making food.
D.She is particular about what she eats.
2.Which of the following would Markey disapprove of?
A.Allowing kids to eat cookies occasionally.
B.Offering various foods to kids at fixed times.
C.Explaining to kids the risks of taking snacks.
D.Talking with kids about school at mealtimes.
3.What should kids do according to the “Division of Responsibility”?
A.Make diet decisions on their own.
B.Share their food with other kids.
C.Eat up what is provided for them.
D.Help their parents do the dishes.
4.What does the author think of the strategies she has been following?
A.Costly. B.Complex.
C.Workable. D.Contradictory.

【知能演练】
Ⅰ.[语篇解读] 这是一篇说明文。作者通过自身经历引出对孩子饮食教育方式的探讨,建议父母语言适度,并基于“责任分工”这一理念来帮助孩子建立健康饮食习惯。
1.B 推理判断题。第一段前两句讲在作者小时候,作者经常被告知哪些食物不能吃,“你不想变胖”这句话在作者的童年时期不断被重复。然后讲父母这种喂养方式对作者的影响,即“It really messed up my relationship with food—something that took me years to overcome.(它真的破坏了我与食物的关系——我花了很多年才克服。)”由此可推知,作者对父母的喂养方式进行了批判,故选B。
2.C 推理判断题。根据第二段Charlotte Markey所说的话“There are so many things in parenting that...one of them”可知,在养育子女时,很多事情是值得详细讨论的,但食物不在其中,故C项“向孩子解释吃零食的风险”是Charlotte Markey不主张的。故选C。
3.A 细节理解题。根据题干的“Division of Responsibility”可将答案定位在第三段。根据该段的“where parents provide a variety of mostly...they want to consume”可知,根据“责任分工”理念,父母被建议在固定的时间为孩子提供各种各样的基本健康的食品,孩子们自己决定他们吃什么和吃多少,故选A。
4.C 观点态度题。根据最后一段的“I've been trying out...they do make better decisions.”可知,作者一直在尝试这些策略,作者发现当自己对孩子的限制更少时,他们确实做出了更好的决定。由此可知,作者认为她遵循的策略是有效果的,C项workable“可行的,行得通的”正确。costly“代价高的,损失大的”;complex“复杂的,难懂的”;contradictory“相互矛盾的,对立的”。故选C。
Ⅱ.[语篇解读] 本文是记叙文。本文讲述了在生活中,他人的成就对作者的激励作用以及消极作用。作者曾经受朋友赢得马拉松比赛的激励而开始跑步,但后来因遇到更厉害的跑步者和感受到跑步的无聊而放弃。再后来作者转而骑自行车,但因爬坡的困难和被人超过的打击而放弃。最终,作者意识到目标应针对自身而设。
1.C 上文中的“I've been motivated—and demotivated—by other folks' achievements all my life.”提到作者会因为别人的成就而受到激励。结合下文的“Feeling motivated,I started running”可知,此处是指一个社区的朋友赢得了马拉松比赛,作者因此受到了激励。quit“退出”。故用won。
2.A 结合语境和常识可知,作者受到了激励,因此应是开始定期跑步。silently“悄悄地,静静地”;proudly“得意地,自豪地”。故用regularly。
3.D 由下文的“referring to a 52.4mile double marathon”可知,作者遇到的那个女孩要参加一场52.4英里的双人马拉松比赛,因此她那时正在为之训练,故用 training。
4.C 受到那个女孩的影响,作者第二天就开始跑自己从未跑过的最长距离——15 英里。根据下文的“the pure boredom of jogging”可知,作者认为慢跑无比无聊,因此其实作者本身没有跑步的意愿,所以此处可推知,作者是讨厌跑15英里的。deserve“值得,应得”。故用 hated。
5.B 作者遇到的女孩为52.4 英里的双人马拉松比赛训练,而作者在跑15英里的距离,因此对比之下在那个女孩面前作者跑步的成就显得非常渺小。advantage“有利条件,有利因素,优势”; achievement“成就,成绩”;contribution“贡献”; influence“影响”。故用 achievement。
6.D 由上文可知,跑步对作者而言是令人讨厌的、无聊的,因此作者放弃了跑步,决定以后能让自己再次跑步的唯一原因是后面有大狗在追赶。risk“危险,风险”。故用 reason。
7.C 由下文的“I got a good bike and rode a lot”可知,作者买了一辆好的自行车,并骑了很多次,因此作者放弃跑步后把自己的目标转向了骑自行车。give up“放弃”;go on“继续”;deal with“处理”。故用 turned to。
8.B 结合上文中描述的作者的经历和下文作者放弃了骑行可知,此处表示在骑行方面,作者一开始梦想着参加骑行比赛,直到飞往圣地亚戈拜访姐姐。complain“抱怨”;approve“同意”。故用dreamed。
9.B 根据空前的“I flew to San Diego to visit my sister.While she was at work one day”和空后的“went for a ride”可知,作者去圣地亚戈找姐姐,一天姐姐在上班,作者去骑行了,因此此处是说作者向姐姐借了自行车,故用borrowed。
10.A 由空后的“The roads...for miles at a time.”可知,那里的道路穿过宽阔的山谷,在那里作者要一次骑好几英里的上坡路;再结合下文的“about 100 ‘local’bikers who were used to such roads”可知,与当地那些习惯了这种路的人相比,作者不习惯这种路,这种路对作者而言是一个问题。principle“原则,原理”。故用 problem。
11.D 作者要一次骑好几英里的上坡路,结合常识和下文作者放弃骑自行车可知,此处是在描述作者的困难,所以此处是说作者从来没有遇到过这种挑战。danger“危险,风险”; event“活动,比赛项目”;opponent“对手,竞争者”。故用challenges。
12.A 由上文内容和下文的“by about 100‘local’ bikers who were used to such roads”可知,作者被熟悉这种路的当地骑行者超过,convince“使确信,使相信,使信服”; admire“钦佩,赞赏”。故用passed。
13.D 结合上文可知,作者在骑行途中遇到了挑战,又被大约百人超过,作者受挫了,因此骑行对作者来说就没有那么有吸引力了,reliable“可信赖的,可依靠的”;convenient“实用的,便利的”; familiar“熟悉的,常见到的,常听说的”。故用appealing。
14.B 结合文章最后一句“I've come to accept...be my own.”可知,经过跑步和骑行这两件事情,作者已经逐渐相信目标应是为自己而设的,因此作者成长了、成熟了,故用 matured。
15.C 综合全文可知,在跑步和骑行这两件事情上,作者均受到了他人成就的影响,但结果都失败了,故此处是说自那之后作者逐渐相信不管为自己设定什么目标,这些目标都要是为自己而设的。limit“限制”。故用goals。
【续写提能】
Ⅰ.1.a different personality 2.optimistic personality
3.do everything happily 4.love me and care about me 5.healthy and happy
Ⅱ.Every one has a different personality. As for me,I have an optimistic personality and I always do everything happily. My parents love me and care about me, so my personality will be healthy and happy.
