【15题详解】

阅读下面的短文,掌握其大意,然后从短文后各题所给出的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选择最佳选项。
When I was sixteen, I got my first job at a local bakery. I was so excited and eager to do everything perfectly. One busy Saturday afternoon, a customer (顾客) walked up to the counter (柜台) , her face red with anger.
“This cookie is not fresh,” she shouted, putting a half-eaten cookie down heavily in front of me. “I want you to give my money back right now!”
My heart started beating faster. I felt attacked (攻击) and my first thought was to get defensive (防御的) . “It’s not bad,” I thought. “We bake everything fresh every morning!” I was about to say exactly that when I remembered my manager’s ___17___ : “The customer isn’t always right, but they always need to be heard.”
I took a deep breath—a small but important act to calm (使冷静) myself down. Instead of firing back, I made a choice for my personal growth. I looked at her and said, as ___18___ as I could, “I’m so sorry you’re disappointed. Let me get you a fresh one from what we just cooled.”
I went to the back and ___19___ the biggest and softest chocolate chip cookie I could find. Then I ___20___ it on a little plate, and brought it to her. “Here you go. It’s free. I really hope you like this one.”
The woman was completely taken by surprise. The anger disappeared from her ___21___ , replaced by surprise and then a bit of embarrassment (尴尬) . “Oh…well…thank you,” she said. She didn’t just take the cookie and leave. After she finished her coffee, she came back to the counter and said, “You know, that was actually very nice of you. Thank you.”
At that moment, I learned a powerful lesson about solving problems. The problem wasn’t really the cookie. The problem was that the customer felt she was not heard and disrespected. By choosing not to argue, I ___22___ the situation by making the customer less angry. By listening and offering a simple and kind solution patiently, I didn’t just solve her problem—I turned a negative (消极的) experience into a positive one.
That cookie didn’t just teach me about customer service; it taught me a life skill. You can’t control how other people ___23___ , but you can always control how you react. Choosing ___24___ and kindness over anger is a superpower. It keeps you safe from unnecessary troubles, helps you grow into a wiser person, and almost always leads to a better solution.

It was a cold and cloudy afternoon at the end of winter. I put on my hockey pads, picked up my bag and ran towards the car. My heart was racing because I was getting ready to try out for (参加选拔) the Boston Junior Team.
“Dad,” as we drove, I said, “I am really nervous. Will I make it?”
“You will do fine, Emily,” he said to me comfortingly. “I know what kind of player you are. No matter what, give your all.”
“OK,” I answered.
When I arrived at the rink (冰场) , I greeted some friends who were also trying out. I tied my skates and carefully stepped out onto the ice. After a while, we were divided into two teams, and the match started. I tried to stay focused but still felt nervous. I messed up a few times. Sometimes I passed too early, took a bad shot, or didn’t make a play I probably should have. I felt like my skates had minds of their own, but I remember what my dad said: I should give my all. I kept trying to make the best play possible. My dad’s words pushed me to keep going.
After the match, some players were pleased, while others seemed to be in the same situation as me, feeling like their playing was awful. I got home and told my parents that I didn’t think I would make the team, and I went to sleep without dinner.
As I was eating breakfast the next morning, my mother, to my surprise, walked into the kitchen with a wide smile on her face.
“The coach just emailed me. You have made it!” she said excitedly.
I was so relieved and shocked at the same time. I raised myself from the chair and hugged her, then read the email for myself, still unable to believe it was true.
That day, I realized that I may not be the most talented person there, but if I try my best, I can do anything.

We live in a hurried society, which is often shown in how we eat. For example, we often eat quickly while doing something else, such as studying for a test or finishing some work, so we usually aren’t aware (有意识的) of what or how much we are putting in our mouths. This is very common in our modern lives. It can affect our health. Focusing on the act of eating, which is also known as “mindful eating,” can help us.
Eating and nutrition (营养) are connected; both play important roles in helping us achieve and keep good health. Proper nutrition involves having a diet rich in necessary nutrients. Mindful eating can help us by focusing on being aware of what we are eating and paying attention as we eat it. That means turning off the television, smartphone and computer. Using these digital devices (电子设备) while eating can lead to mindless eating as well as eating too much. By focusing on our food and the act of eating, we can better enjoy the flavors, textures (口感) and smells of our meals. Eating can be turned from a necessity into an enjoyable and satisfying experience.
Another benefit of mindful eating is improved digestion (消化). By eating quickly and without focus, we tend to have large amounts of food and not chew (咀嚼) our food properly. This can lead to digestion problems and less effective nutrient absorption (吸收). Mindful eating encourages slower eating, which gives the body more time to break down food. Slower eating also gives the brain more time to know when the stomach is full, which limits overeating.
Additionally, mindful eating helps in recognizing the difference between physical and emotional hunger. Many people are likely to eat more food because of their emotions like stress or sadness rather than physical hunger. By practicing mindful eating, people can become aware of true hunger signs and deal with emotional needs in healthier ways.
A greater appreciation for food is also improved, which can lead to better food choices, such as fresh, whole foods. As a result, people often choose healthier eating habits that are good for long-term well-being.
Mindful eating can be done through several steps. These include eating slowly, appreciating each bite, listening to the body’s hunger and fullness cues (信号) and creating a calm eating environment.
Overall, mindful eating can be a powerful tool for improving one’s physical health.
31. Why does the writer use the example in Paragraph 1?
A. To introduce a hurried lifestyle. B. To criticize (批评) the fast modern life.
C. To describe a common eating experience. D. To show the result of eating too much.
32. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Mindful eating is more important than nutrition we get from food.
B. We are likely to eat more if we turn off the digital devices.
C. We can eat delicious food to cheer us up when we are in low spirits.
D. Mindful eating encourages us to focus on eating to digest better.
33. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?
A. Mindless Eating: How It Affects Our Eating Habits
B. Mindful Eating: An Effective Way to Improve Health
C. Mindless Eating: The Main Cause of Health Problems
D. Mindful Eating: Simple Steps to Practice Daily
【答案】31. C 32. D 33. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,文章主要介绍了“正念饮食”这一概念,阐述了其在现代生活中的重要性,以及如何通过正念饮食改善健康。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段“For example, we often eat quickly while doing something else, such as studying for a test or finishing some work, so we usually aren’t aware (有意识的) of what or how much we are putting in our mouths. This is very common in our modern lives.”可知,作者通过描述一个常见的进食场景,引出文章主题——正念饮食。因此,这个例子是为了描述一种常见的进食体验。故选C。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Another benefit of mindful eating is improved digestion (消化). By eating quickly and without focus, we tend to have large amounts of food and not chew (咀嚼) our food properly. This can lead to digestion problems and less effective nutrient absorption (吸收). Mindful eating encourages slower eating, which gives the body more time to break down food.”可知,正念饮食通过鼓励我们专注于进食,从而帮助我们更好地消化食物。故选D。
【33题详解】
最佳标题题。根据文章最后一段“Overall, mindful eating can be a powerful tool for improving one’s physical health.”以及全文内容可知,文章主要介绍了正念饮食对改善健康的有效性。因此,最佳标题应为“正念饮食:改善健康的有效方法”。故选B。
D
Digital grounding (限制) is when parents or caregivers limit or completely take away the digital devices from the children when they do things wrong. According to a study conducted by Pew Research, 65% of parents have digitally grounded their teen by taking away their teen’s cellphone or Internet access as punishment (惩罚).
Because children are so connected with their technologies, digital grounding may seem like a reasonable or right step for parents. Most of the parents think that taking away a child’s most valued item will quickly and easily learn the lessons from their bad behavior. But, actually, the idea of digital grounding isn’t as clear-cut as that. Instead, it may be a lose-lose situation for parents and kids alike.
For most parents, the goal of grounding isn’t to make their children unhappy or sad. It is to teach a lesson in the hope that they won’t engage in any behavior that got them in trouble in the first place. Unfortunately, though, digital grounding is often just punishment, not discipline (管教). If a child stays out past curfew (最晚回家时间), a punishment would be hitting or shouting at them. But a discipline would be not letting them go out the next weekend because they didn’t follow the rules.
We’ve all been there—we’ve caught our child doing something wrong and, in the heat of the moment, laid out a strict punishment. In those seconds, we might feel hot-headed, embarrassed, or angry. However, these punishments are not aligned with the actual mistake our child made.
While digital grounding may solve the problem temporarily (暂时地), it won’t provide children with the guidance they need to act properly in the future. Instead of grounding, show your child what they did wrong and give them the chance to act differently. This way, they will learn from their mistakes in a practical manner and figure out ways to be safe and smart with technology.
There’s no doubt that technology is here to stay. This is why some parenting experts don’t recommend (推荐) digitally grounding your children. It doesn’t focus on the end goal of safe behavior. They recommend teaching them good habits as soon as possible, rather than taking away their technology. By digitally grounding them, you are putting a bandage over the wound, rather than treating it.
Now, when we say that digital grounding is a lose-lose situation, we’re not saying that disciplining your children in general is a lose-lose situation. Discipline is a great way to teach children lessons when used properly.
34. Which of the following is an example of a proper form of discipline?
A. Hitting or yelling at children for their bad behavior.
B. Setting a strict punishment immediately when angry.
C. Completely taking away children’s access to cellphones.
D. Forbidding kids from going out next weekend for breaking curfew.
35. What does the author suggest parents do instead of digital grounding?
A. Provide children with more free time. B. Guide children to develop good habits.
C. Behave properly in front of children. D. Solve children’s problems temporarily.
36. What does the word “aligned” most probably mean in Paragraph 4?
A. Matched B. Changed C. Confused D. Compared
37. What’s the purpose of the text?
A. To compare different parenting methods in digital times.
B. To explain the causes and effects of digital grounding.
C. To argue against the use of digital grounding as punishment.
D. To introduce scientific ways to educate children online.
【答案】34. D 35. B 36. A 37. C
【解析】
【导语】本文围绕数字限制这一育儿惩罚方式展开,指出其并非恰当管教手段,只能暂时解决问题却无法引导孩子养成良好行为习惯,进而反对将其作为惩罚方式,建议父母通过引导孩子认识错误、培养好习惯来进行有效管教。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据“If a child stays out past curfew (最晚回家时间), a punishment would be hitting or shouting at them. But a discipline would be not letting them go out next weekend because they didn’t follow the rules.”可知,因为孩子违反宵禁规定,禁止他们下周末外出是恰当的管教方式。故选D。
【35题详解】
细节理解题。根据“They recommend teaching them good habits as soon as possible, rather than taking away their technology.”可知,作者建议父母引导孩子养成良好的习惯,而不是进行数字限制。故选B。
【36题详解】
词句猜测题。根据“We’ve all been there—we’ve caught our child doing something wrong and in the heat of the moment laid out a strict punishment. In those seconds, we might feel hot-headed, embarrassed, or angry. However, these punishments are not aligned with the actual mistake our child made.”可知,一时冲动做出的严厉惩罚,和孩子实际犯的错误并不相符,“aligned”意为“匹配的”。故选A。
【37题详解】
主旨大意题。根据“Instead, it may be a lose-lose situation for parents and kids alike.”“While digital grounding may solve the problem temporarily (暂时地), it won’t provide children with the guidance they need to act properly in the future.”以及全文内容可知,本文的写作目的是反对将数字限制作为惩罚手段。故选C。
第四部分 书面表达 (共30分)
七、阅读与表达 (共10分,第53-55题各2分,第56题4分)
阅读短文,根据短文内容回答问题。请在答题纸指定区域作答。
Did your parents read a story to you at bedtime when you were young? Have you read anything aloud to your friends? When you recall those memories. do you feel a certain sense of closeness? For me, the answer is yes. After reading aloud, I also feel my reading is so attractive to audiences (听众) .
There are two common reading habits: reading silently and reading aloud. Personally, I prefer reading aloud. Last school year, I read aloud to some of my students. Soon I found they were fully involved in the story. When I read to them with vocal variety (声音变化) and feelings, students were able to understand the personality of characters.
Reading aloud allows others to hear the content (内容) . It can improve our understanding of the text. This is why in ancient Iraq and Syria more than 4, 000 years ago, reading meant “to cry out” or “to listen”.
Reading aloud can bring other benefits to us. Reading aloud can help us to remember 10% more vocabulary than silent reading. If readers have speech difficulties. reading aloud can help those readers to improve their memory. It was said that reading the words to another person resulted in the highest verbal (言语) memory recall. By contrast, reading silently produced the lowest verbal memory recall. Reading aloud can also help doctors to detect (测出) Alzheimer’s disease at an early stage if the reading has specific (具体的) mistakes.
Someone may ask: If there are so many benefits, why do we still read silently? According to a study on the effect of writing on the human brain and behaviors by Karenleigh Overmann, a professor at the University of Bergen, Norway, silent reading keeps up with the speed of thought much better when people read while writing. Reading aloud slows down the ability to read quickly because producing a sound needs more time.
Reading silently and reading aloud both have their own advantages and disadvantages. We can choose the suitable (合适的) reading habit according to our own needs and situations.

When I was sixteen, I got my first job at a local bakery. I was so excited and eager to do everything perfectly. One busy Saturday afternoon, a customer (顾客) walked up to the counter (柜台) , her face red with anger.
“This cookie is not fresh,” she shouted, putting a half-eaten cookie down heavily in front of me. “I want you to give my money back right now!”
My heart started beating faster. I felt attacked (攻击) and my first thought was to get defensive (防御的) . “It’s not bad,” I thought. “We bake everything fresh every morning!” I was about to say exactly that when I remembered my manager’s ___17___ : “The customer isn’t always right, but they always need to be heard.”
I took a deep breath—a small but important act to calm (使冷静) myself down. Instead of firing back, I made a choice for my personal growth. I looked at her and said, as ___18___ as I could, “I’m so sorry you’re disappointed. Let me get you a fresh one from what we just cooled.”
I went to the back and ___19___ the biggest and softest chocolate chip cookie I could find. Then I ___20___ it on a little plate and brought it to her. “Here you go. It’s free. I really hope you like this one.”
The woman was completely taken by surprise. The anger disappeared from her ___21___ , replaced by surprise and then a bit of embarrassment (尴尬) . “Oh…well…thank you,” she said. She didn’t just take the cookie and leave. After she finished her coffee, she came back to the counter and said, “You know, that was actually very nice of you. Thank you.”
At that moment, I learned a powerful lesson about solving problems. The problem wasn’t really the cookie. The problem was that the customer felt she was not heard and disrespected. By choosing not to argue, I ___22___ the situation by making the customer less angry. By listening and offering a simple and kind solution patiently, I didn’t just solve her problem—I turned a negative (消极的) experience into a positive one.
That cookie didn’t just teach me about customer service; it taught me a life skill. You can’t control how other people ___23___ , but you can always control how you react. Choosing ___24___ and kindness over anger is a superpower. It keeps you safe from unnecessary troubles, helps you grow into a wiser person, and almost always leads to a better solution.

19. A. tried out B. picked out C. worked out D. gave out

It was a cold and cloudy afternoon at the end of winter. I put on my hockey pads, picked up my bag and ran towards the car. My heart was racing because I was getting ready to try out for (参加选拔) the Boston Junior Team.
“Dad,” as we drove, I said, “I am really nervous. Will I make it?”
“You will do fine, Emily,” he said to me comfortingly. “I know what kind of player you are. No matter what, give your all.”
“OK,” I answered.
When I arrived at the rink (冰场) I greeted some friends who were also trying out. I tied my skates and carefully stepped out onto the ice. After a while, we were divided into two teams, and the match started. I tried to stay focused but still felt nervous. I messed up a few times. Sometimes I passed too early, took a bad shot, or didn’t make a play I probably should have. I felt like my skates had minds of their own, but I remember what my dad said: I should give my all. I kept trying to make the best play possible. My dad’s words pushed me to keep going.
After the match, some players were pleased, while others seemed to be in the same situation as me, feeling like their playing was awful. I got home and told my parents that I didn’t think I would make the team, and I went to sleep without dinner.
As I was eating breakfast the next morning, my mother, to my surprise, walked into the kitchen with a wide smile on her face.
“The coach just emailed me. You have made it!” she said excitedly.
I was so relieved and shocked at the same time. I raised myself from the chair and hugged her, then read the email for myself, still unable to believe it was true.
That day, I realized that I may not be the most talented person there, but if I try my best, I can do anything.
28. How did the writer feel before the match started?
A. Confident. B. Excited. C. Nervous. D. Angry.
29. During the match, Emily ________.

30. From her experience, Emily learned about ________.
A. the importance of talent B. the power of doing her best

C
We live in a hurried society, which is often shown in how we eat. For example, we often eat quickly while doing something else, such as studying for a test or finishing some work, so we usually aren’t aware (有意识的) of what or how much we are putting in our mouths. This is very common in our modern lives. It can affect our health. Focusing on the act of eating, which is also known as “mindful eating,” can help us.
Eating and nutrition (营养) are connected; both play important roles in helping us achieve and keep good health. Proper nutrition involves having a diet rich in necessary nutrients. Mindful eating can help us by focusing on being aware of what we are eating and paying attention as we eat it. That means turning off the television, smartphone and computer. Using these digital devices (电子设备) while eating can lead to mindless eating as well as eating too much. By focusing on our food and the act of eating, we can better enjoy the flavors, textures (口感) and smells of our meals. Eating can be turned from a necessity into an enjoyable and satisfying experience.
Another benefit of mindful eating is improved digestion (消化). By eating quickly and without focus, we tend to have large amounts of food and not chew (咀嚼) our food properly. This can lead to digestion problems and less effective nutrient absorption (吸收). Mindful eating encourages slower eating, which gives the body more time to break down food. Slower eating also gives the brain more time to know when the stomach is full, which limits overeating.
Additionally, mindful eating helps in recognizing the difference between physical and emotional hunger. Many people are likely to eat more food because of their emotions like stress or sadness rather than physical hunger. By practicing mindful eating, people can become aware of true hunger signs and deal with emotional needs in healthier ways.
A greater appreciation for food is also improved which can lead to better food choices, such as fresh, whole foods. As a result, people often choose healthier eating habits that are good for long-term well-being.
Mindful eating can be done through several steps. These include eating slowly, appreciating each bite, listening to the body’s hunger and fullness cues (信号) and creating a calm eating environment.
Overall, mindful eating can be a powerful tool for improving one’s physical health.
31. Why does the writer use the example in Paragraph 1?
A. To introduce a hurried lifestyle. B. To criticize (批评) the fast modern life.
C. To describe a common eating experience. D. To show the result of eating too much.
32. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Mindful eating is more important than nutrition we get from food.
B. We are likely to eat more if we turn off the digital devices.
C. We can eat delicious food to cheer us up when we are in low spirits.
D. Mindful eating encourages us to focus on eating to digest better.
33. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?
A. Mindless Eating: How It Affects Our Eating Habits
B. Mindful Eating: An Effective Way to Improve Health
C. Mindless Eating: The Main Cause of Health Problems
D. Mindful Eating: Simple Steps to Practice Daily
D
Digital grounding (限制) is when parents or caregivers limit or completely take away the digital devices from the children when they do things wrong. According to a study conducted by Pew Research, 65% of parents have digitally grounded their teen by taking away their teen’s cellphone or Internet access as punishment (惩罚).
Because children are so connected with their technologies, digital grounding may seem like a reasonable or right step for parents. Most of the parents think that taking away a child’s most valued item will quickly and easily learn the lessons from their bad behavior. But, actually, the idea of digital grounding isn’t as clear-cut as that. Instead, it may be a lose-lose situation for parents and kids alike.
For most parents, the goal of grounding isn’t to make their children unhappy or sad. It is to teach a lesson in the hope that they won’t engage in any behavior that got them in trouble in the first place. Unfortunately, though, digital grounding is often just punishment, not discipline (管教). If a child stays out past curfew (最晚回家时间), a punishment would be hitting or shouting at them. But a discipline would be not letting them go out the next weekend because they didn’t follow the rules.
We’ve all been there—we’ve caught our child doing something wrong and, in the heat of the moment, laid out a strict punishment. In those seconds, we might feel hot-headed, embarrassed, or angry. However, these punishments are not aligned with the actual mistake our child made.
While digital grounding may solve the problem temporarily (暂时地), it won’t provide children with the guidance they need to act properly in the future. Instead of grounding, show your child what they did wrong and give them the chance to act differently. This way, they will learn from their mistakes in a practical manner and figure out ways to be safe and smart with technology.
There’s no doubt that technology is here to stay. This is why some parenting experts don’t recommend (推荐) digitally grounding your children. It doesn’t focus on the end goal of safe behavior. They recommend teaching them good habits as soon as possible, rather than taking away their technology. By digitally grounding them, you are putting a bandage over the wound, rather than treating it.
Now, when we say that digital grounding is a lose-lose situation, we’re not saying that disciplining your children in general is a lose-lose situation. Discipline is a great way to teach children lessons when used properly.
34. Which of the following is an example of a proper form of discipline?
A. Hitting or yelling at children for their bad behavior.
B. Setting a strict punishment immediately when angry.
C. Completely taking away children’s access to cellphones.
D. Forbidding kids from going out next weekend for breaking curfew.
35. What does the author suggest parents do instead of digital grounding?
A. Provide children with more free time. B. Guide children to develop good habits.
C. Behave properly in front of children. D. Solve children’s problems temporarily.
36. What does the word “aligned” most probably mean in Paragraph 4?
A. Matched B. Changed C. Confused D. Compared
37. What’s the purpose of the text?
A. To compare different parenting methods in digital times.
B. To explain the causes and effects of digital grounding.
C. To argue against the use of digital grounding as punishment.
D. To introduce scientific ways to educate children online.

Did your parents read a story to you at bedtime when you were young? Have you read anything aloud to your friends? When you recall those memories. do you feel a certain sense of closeness? For me, the answer is yes. After reading aloud, I also feel my reading is so attractive to audiences (听众) .
There are two common reading habits: reading silently and reading aloud. Personally, I prefer reading aloud. Last school year, I read aloud to some of my students. Soon I found they were fully involved in the story. When I read to them with vocal variety (声音变化) and feelings, students were able to understand the personality of characters.
Reading aloud allows others to hear the content (内容) . It can improve our understanding of the text. This is why in ancient Iraq and Syria more than 4, 000 years ago, reading meant “to cry out” or “to listen”.
Reading aloud can bring other benefits to us. Reading aloud can help us to remember 10% more vocabulary than silent reading. If readers have speech difficulties. reading aloud can help those readers to improve their memory. It was said that reading the words to another person resulted in the highest verbal (言语) memory recall. By contrast, reading silently produced the lowest verbal memory recall. Reading aloud can also help doctors to detect (测出) Alzheimer’s disease at an early stage if the reading has specific (具体的) mistakes.
Someone may ask: If there are so many benefits, why do we still read silently? According to a study on the effect of writing on the human brain and behaviors by Karenleigh Overmann, a professor at the University of Bergen, Norway, silent reading keeps up with the speed of thought much better when people read while writing. Reading aloud slows down the ability to read quickly because producing a sound needs more time.
Reading silently and reading aloud both have their own advantages and disadvantages. We can choose the suitable (合适的) reading habit according to our own needs and situations.
