My story is similar, with a twist. It begins in 2016, during the last semester of my philosophy undergraduate, when I decided to become a writer after being inspired by modern and classic works I was reading. I earned a journalism master’s degree from New York University and worked at Toronto Life magazine. I had some success, interviewing important figures and even writing for The New York Times. But behind the scenes, I was constantly stressed and struggling to make rent. Then things changed. Last summer, a friend invited me to coach a small group of 11-year-old volleyball players. I always loved volleyball but had pushed it aside because I thought it couldn’t be a career. I jumped at the chance. Every morning, I trained the kids on passing, setting and serving. I had gone from interviewing people to playing volleyball with kids in the park. Surprisingly, I felt alive again. Volleyball reawakened a spirit of playfulness in me. I didn’t have to sit behind a computer all day. The parents paid me fairly and on time, and my work could not be replaced by artificial intelligence. So I went all in. I found gym space, started running my own clinics and created an organization called Super Volley. Things are going decently well so far. Like many small businesses, I’m at the mercy of a rising cost of living, a harsh economy and consumers who might devote their Saturdays to something else. But I’ll keep going because this volleyball thing rewards me in ways that go well beyond money or journalistic fame. 1．Why does the author mention “a familiar tale” at the beginning? A．To criticize people who give up stable jobs. B．To suggest that opening a coffee shop is a good idea. C．To introduce his own story of chasing what he loves. D．To warn readers not to follow others’ dream blindly. 2．What was the problem with the author’s writing career? A．He didn’t have a chance to do meaningful work. B．He had no interest in interviewing public figures. C．He felt journalism was less serious than philosophy. D．He was under great pressure and financially troubled. 3．What is the advantage of the author’s new career according to paragraph 4? A．It allows him to make a fortune. B．It cannot be replaced by technology. C．It offers more creative opportunities. D．It brings him more fame and public attention. 4．What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A．The author is still unsure if coaching can be a long-term career. B．The author is realistic and finds deep fulfillment in what he does. C．The author occasionally regrets leaving his previous writing career. D．The author is confident that his volleyball business will expand soon. Passage 2 （2026届湖南衡阳高三上学期第一次联考） I was sitting on my living room sofa. “Get up and go to work out,” I said to myself. No movement yet. Picturing the athlete who once ran for hours, trained nonstop, and played with intensity couldn’t stir up the will to walk 10 yards to the gym for even 20 minutes of lifting. I had graduated from college as a 21-year-old young man, and with that came the sudden end of my soccer career. Losing that clarity hit harder than any physical challenge I’d ever faced. The scaffolding of my life had fallen apart. It was replaced by a complex and confusing web of competing priorities with no clear hierarchy(层次)—no coach telling me what mattered most, no obvious way to keep score. I felt directionless, empty and lost. Months later, I met Arthur Brooks, the author of From Strength to Strength, by chance. He has spent decades studying what makes people truly happy, and he has noticed a troubling pattern: We’ve lost our connection to meaning, and that is what puts us in a bad mood. Meaning will slip away unnoticeably. The job that once energized you will become routine. This is not failure but a human condition. We’re supposed to lose our sense of meaning periodically because we never permanently solve it. The most important thing that Brooks has taught me is that meaning isn’t a destination to reach but a way we travel through life. The struggle never gets easier, but we can find joy in the difficulty. We can stop seeing these tough times as our enemies and start seeing them as partners, letting each crisis of meaning teach us something new about ourselves and what we truly value. For my soccer-playing self—who was trapped in the belief that meaning should be permanent, something given to us that provides a solid, sensible structure for one’s life—this would have sounded like terrible news, but it’s actually liberating. 5．What can be learned about the author from paragraph 1? A．He was exhausted. B．He was demotivated. C．He was ambitious. D．He was disorganized. 6．What does the underlined word “scaffolding” in paragraph 2 mean? A．Supporting item. B．Temporary plan. C．Hidden hardship. D．Emotional bond. 7．Why may we feel unhappy according to Brooks? A．We struggle to follow our routines. B．We tend to pursue unrealistic goals. C．We are disconnected from meaning. D．We are faced with demanding tasks. 8．What lesson has the author learned from Brooks? A．Celebrating small moments in life. B．Accepting struggles as unavoidable. C．Welcoming unpredictable changes. D．Valuing life’s journey over purpose. Passage 3 七选五 （2026届湖北高三上学期元月调考第二次联考英语试卷） Change for Good Life itself is changing. To engage in life fully and joyously, you need to find ways to create and cope with change in all aspects. Equating health with stability, then you have to think again. 1 Even that stability is not permanent, but a temporary functional state. Your body seems solid, yet it is built on change. 2 What’s the most solid and stable part? Your bones, which are replaced every three months. Every other organ is also in a state of renewal and destruction. Your skin renews monthly, and stomach lining renews every five days. Change is unavoidable, yet we fear it. 3 How many times have people said to you in a critical way, “You’ve changed” Similarly, “changing your mind” is seen as a sign of weakness, although it could more properly be seen as evidence of strength. In fact, to live a life of vitality and health, the ability to change your mind is essential. 4 While your body stops growing long beforehand, your brain keeps developing into middle age, with white matter increasing in volume until your late 40s. Not only that, but the connections between neurons resulting from learning can continue to be created anew. Old dogs absolutely can learn new tricks. However, intellectually accepting change is not necessarily enough to bring change into life. 5 For instance, heart patients are better motivated with “joy of living” than fear of death. Create yourself a mindset for change: forget the fear of letting go of your old habits and focus on the joy that making change will bring. A．The good news is that you are never too old to change. B．The idea here is that through change stability is achieved. C．To really foster change, you have to access positive emotions. D．Regular exercise can help improve your ability to change quickly. E．We are often educated to stay constant, viewing change as negative. F．Many people believe that staying unchanged is the key to happiness. G．Your body tissue is in a constant state of turnover and regeneration. Passage 4 完形填空 （2026江苏四校联考高三上学期调研测试英语试题） One morning, I took my three-legged dog Wrigley for a walk. Wrigley suddenly stopped on the sidewalk; something caught his eye, 1 his nose. “One... two... three!” I pulled his lead, growing 2 . I was busy: breakfast, work, and coffee on my to-do list this morning. You’d think his missing back leg would make him less 3 , therefore, easier for me to keep him moving along, but it didn’t. A tripod (三脚架) can be stronger than a chair. Wrigley loved smelling trees and grasses, or poking his face into shrubs — hoping for rabbits or cats. When I almost lost patience, he 4 me to a spot to slow down, sense, and mark his presence. It was his way of saying: I am here. Wrigley and I both liked rocks, trees, and paying attention to the world’s small details — if I 5 long enough to notice. I wanted to experience things with my body and not my head. But I was often moving too fast to 6 what was laid out before me, anxious like a fish fighting upstream. On that walk, it 7 me that he had been teaching me to slow down and enjoy the 8 world. When I was lost in a sea of 9 , he brought my life down to ground level with his simple 10 to live in the moment. He only focused on what 11 him, unlike me, who was distracted by endless tasks. He greeted friends with full-body wags, lost in scratches, and reacted instantly — no overthinking. Once, I stepped on his paw in a hurry. He barked, but soon wagged his tail, offering 12 forgiveness and trust, which I should also show to family, loved ones, friends, most of all, 13 . With a satisfied look, he turned his head toward me, I fastened his collar and 14 the lead. “Wanna go?” The world of smells and sounds 15 . 1．A．instead of B．or rather C．other than D．more of 2．A．calm B．tired C．impatient D．nervous 3．A．stable B．fixed C．fast D．excited 4．A．chased B．drove C．dragged D．escaped 5．A．paused B．hurried C．struggled D．continued 6．A．appreciate B．overlook C．grasp D．dismiss 7．A．happened to B．dawned on C．came across D．went through 8．A．imagined B．sensory C．material D．inner 9．A．fears B．sorrows C．anxieties D．troubles 10．A．goal B．method C．strategy D．wisdom 11．A．delighted B．benefited C．relaxed D．rewarded 12．A．sudden B．quick C．short D．brief 13．A．him B．myself C．others D．itself 14．A．grabbed B．released C．pulled D．undid 15．A．left B．waited C．passed D．welcomed Passage 5 语法填空 （2026湖北省黄冈市高三上学期1月期末英语试题） In the hustle and bustle of modern life — where people often chase extreme success, argue over opposing views, 1 struggle with work-life imbalance — an ancient Chinese wisdom called the “Doctrine of the Mean” (Zhongyong) offers a precious guide. 2 (originate) from Confucianism, this philosophy emphasizes “moderation,” “balance,” and “harmony,” teaching people to avoid extremes and seek a middle way in all aspects of life. Contrary to the misunderstanding that it means “being ordinary” or “doing nothing,” the Confucian “Zhongyong” 3 (refer) to a state of “appropriate action” — doing the right thing, at the right time, in the right way. It was first 4 (systematic) clarified in the Confucian classic The Doctrine of the Mean, 5 states: “The mean is the highest virtue.” For Confucians, the “mean” is not a compromise between two extremes, but a harmonious integration of different elements. Today, as we face unprecedented challenges — from personal anxiety 6 global conflicts — the “Doctrine of the Mean” offers a timeless 7 (solve) ; seek balance, avoid extremes, and pursue harmony. It reminds us that the most sustainable happiness does not come from extreme success or endless desire, but from a balanced life; the 8 (stable) relationships do not come from blind agreement or constant conflict, but from mutual respect and compromise; the most prosperous society does not come from one-sided development or rigid rules, but from the harmonious coexistence of different elements. The “Doctrine of the Mean” is more than just an ancient Confucian concept — it’s a living wisdom that connects traditional Chinese culture to modern life. It teaches us to slow down in a fast-paced world, to listen in a noisy world, and 9 (balance) in an extreme world.

My story is similar, with a twist. It begins in 2016, during the last semester of my philosophy undergraduate, when I decided to become a writer after being inspired by modern and classic works I was reading. I earned a journalism master’s degree from New York University and worked at Toronto Life magazine. I had some success, interviewing important figures and even writing for The New York Times. But behind the scenes, I was constantly stressed and struggling to make rent. Then things changed. Last summer, a friend invited me to coach a small group of 11-year-old volleyball players. I always loved volleyball but had pushed it aside because I thought it couldn’t be a career. I jumped at the chance. Every morning, I trained the kids on passing, setting and serving. I had gone from interviewing people to playing volleyball with kids in the park. Surprisingly, I felt alive again. Volleyball reawakened a spirit of playfulness in me. I didn’t have to sit behind a computer all day. The parents paid me fairly and on time, and my work could not be replaced by artificial intelligence. So I went all in. I found gym space, started running my own clinics and created an organization called Super Volley. Things are going decently well so far. Like many small businesses, I’m at the mercy of a rising cost of living, a harsh economy and consumers who might devote their Saturdays to something else. But I’ll keep going because this volleyball thing rewards me in ways that go well beyond money or journalistic fame. 1．Why does the author mention “a familiar tale” at the beginning? A．To criticize people who give up stable jobs. B．To suggest that opening a coffee shop is a good idea. C．To introduce his own story of chasing what he loves. D．To warn readers not to follow others’ dream blindly. 2．What was the problem with the author’s writing career? A．He didn’t have a chance to do meaningful work. B．He had no interest in interviewing public figures. C．He felt journalism was less serious than philosophy. D．He was under great pressure and financially troubled. 3．What is the advantage of the author’s new career according to paragraph 4? A．It allows him to make a fortune. B．It cannot be replaced by technology. C．It offers more creative opportunities. D．It brings him more fame and public attention. 4．What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A．The author is still unsure if coaching can be a long-term career. B．The author is realistic and finds deep fulfillment in what he does. C．The author occasionally regrets leaving his previous writing career. D．The author is confident that his volleyball business will expand soon. 【答案】1．C 2．D 3．B 4．B 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者放弃压力重重的写作职业，转而投身于自己热爱的排球教练事业，并从中找到了全新的人生价值与满足感的经历。 1．推理判断题。根据第一段“It’s a familiar tale these days: A Canadian quits their exhausting day job to pursue a dream, like opening a coffee shop, and finds freedom and joy. My story is similar, with a twist.(如今有个大家耳熟能详的故事：一个加拿大人辞掉令人身心俱疲的日常工作，去追寻梦想——比如开一家咖啡店，最终收获了自由与快乐。我的故事与之相仿，却又有着别样的转折。)”可知，作者开头提到“熟悉的故事”是为了引出自己追逐热爱之事的经历。故选C。 2．细节理解题。根据第二段“But behind the scenes, I was constantly stressed and struggling to make rent.(但在光鲜的背后，我一直承受着巨大的压力，连房租都难以支付。)”可知，作者的写作事业面临的问题是压力巨大且经济困难。故选D。 3．细节理解题。根据第四段“The parents paid me fairly and on time, and my work could not be replaced by artificial intelligence.(家长们支付的报酬公平且准时，而且我的工作不会被人工智能取代。)”可知，作者新职业的优势是无法被技术替代。故选B。 4．推理判断题。根据最后一段“Like many small businesses, I’m at the mercy of a rising cost of living, a harsh economy and consumers who might devote their Saturdays to something else. But I’ll keep going because this volleyball thing rewards me in ways that go well beyond money or journalistic fame.(和许多小企业一样，我受到生活成本上涨、经济低迷以及可能把周六时间花在其他事情上的消费者的影响。但我会继续坚持下去，因为排球事业给我的回报远远超出了金钱或新闻界的名声。)”可知，作者既认清现实，又在自己的事业中找到了深层满足感。故选B。 Passage 2 （2026届湖南衡阳高三上学期第一次联考） I was sitting on my living room sofa. “Get up and go to work out,” I said to myself. No movement yet. Picturing the athlete who once ran for hours, trained nonstop, and played with intensity couldn’t stir up the will to walk 10 yards to the gym for even 20 minutes of lifting. I had graduated from college as a 21-year-old young man, and with that came the sudden end of my soccer career. Losing that clarity hit harder than any physical challenge I’d ever faced. The scaffolding of my life had fallen apart. It was replaced by a complex and confusing web of competing priorities with no clear hierarchy(层次)—no coach telling me what mattered most, no obvious way to keep score. I felt directionless, empty and lost. Months later, I met Arthur Brooks, the author of From Strength to Strength, by chance. He has spent decades studying what makes people truly happy, and he has noticed a troubling pattern: We’ve lost our connection to meaning, and that is what puts us in a bad mood. Meaning will slip away unnoticeably. The job that once energized you will become routine. This is not failure but a human condition. We’re supposed to lose our sense of meaning periodically because we never permanently solve it. The most important thing that Brooks has taught me is that meaning isn’t a destination to reach but a way we travel through life. The struggle never gets easier, but we can find joy in the difficulty. We can stop seeing these tough times as our enemies and start seeing them as partners, letting each crisis of meaning teach us something new about ourselves and what we truly value. For my soccer-playing self—who was trapped in the belief that meaning should be permanent, something given to us that provides a solid, sensible structure for one’s life—this would have sounded like terrible news, but it’s actually liberating. 5．What can be learned about the author from paragraph 1? A．He was exhausted. B．He was demotivated. C．He was ambitious. D．He was disorganized. 6．What does the underlined word “scaffolding” in paragraph 2 mean? A．Supporting item. B．Temporary plan. C．Hidden hardship. D．Emotional bond. 7．Why may we feel unhappy according to Brooks? A．We struggle to follow our routines. B．We tend to pursue unrealistic goals. C．We are disconnected from meaning. D．We are faced with demanding tasks. 8．What lesson has the author learned from Brooks? A．Celebrating small moments in life. B．Accepting struggles as unavoidable. C．Welcoming unpredictable changes. D．Valuing life’s journey over purpose. 【答案】5．B 6．A 7．C 8．D 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了作者因结束足球生涯失去生活方向，偶然结识 Brooks 后，从其身上领悟到：意义不是人生终点，而是前行方式，要在困境中感受人生旅程的价值。 5．细节理解题。根据第一段“I was sitting on my living room sofa. “Get up and go to work out,” I said to myself. No movement yet. Picturing the athlete who once ran for hours, trained nonstop, and played with intensity couldn’t stir up the will to walk 10 yards to the gym for even 20 minutes of lifting.( 我正坐在客厅的沙发上。“起来去锻炼一下吧，”我对自己说道。目前还没有任何动静。想象那位曾经长时间奔跑、不间断训练、全力以赴比赛的运动员，却再也无法激发自己迈出 10 码去健身房锻炼哪怕 20 分钟的意愿。)”可知，从第一段中可以了解到作者缺乏动力、萎靡不振的状态。故选B项。 6．词句猜测题。根据第二段中“I had graduated from college as a 21-year-old young man, and with that came the sudden end of my soccer career. Losing that clarity hit harder than any physical challenge I’d ever faced.( 我大学毕业时年仅 21 岁，随之而来的是我足球生涯的突然终结。失去那种清晰的目标感比我曾经历过的任何身体上的挑战都更让我感到痛苦。)”以及“The… of my life had fallen apart. It was replaced by a complex and confusing web of competing priorities with no clear hierarchy(层次)—no coach telling me what mattered most, no obvious way to keep score.( 我生活的……彻底崩塌了。取而代之的是一张错综复杂、令人困惑的、相互冲突的优先事项网络，没有明确的等级顺序——没有教练告诉我什么才是最重要的，也没有明确的方式来衡量成效。)”可知，前文指出作者大学毕业告别足球生涯，失去了生活的清晰方向；后句说明原本的东西消失后，生活变得杂乱无章、没有主次。由此可推知，scaffolding是支撑作者生活、让生活有秩序的东西，即“支撑物”。A选项Supporting item“支撑物”符合语境。故选A项。 7．细节理解题。根据第三段中“He has spent decades studying what makes people truly happy, and he has noticed a troubling pattern: We’ve lost our connection to meaning, and that is what puts us in a bad mood.( 他花了数十年时间研究是什么让人们真正感到快乐，并且他注意到一个令人不安的模式：我们已经失去了对意义的联系，而这正是让我们心情不佳的原因。)”可知，根据布鲁克斯的观点，人们不快乐的核心原因是我们与生命的意义脱节。故选C项。 8．推理判断题。根据第四段中“The most important thing that Brooks has taught me is that meaning isn’t a destination to reach but a way we travel through life. The struggle never gets easier, but we can find joy in the difficulty.( 布鲁克斯教给我的最重要的一点是，意义并非一个需要抵达的目标，而是一种我们在生活中前行的方式。这种挣扎永远不会变得轻松，但我们可以在艰难中找到快乐。)”可推知，作者从布鲁克斯身上学到了重视人生旅程本身而非目标。故选D项。 Passage 3 七选五 （2026届湖北高三上学期元月调考第二次联考英语试卷） Change for Good Life itself is changing. To engage in life fully and joyously, you need to find ways to create and cope with change in all aspects. Equating health with stability, then you have to think again. 1 Even that stability is not permanent, but a temporary functional state. Your body seems solid, yet it is built on change. 2 What’s the most solid and stable part? Your bones, which are replaced every three months. Every other organ is also in a state of renewal and destruction. Your skin renews monthly, and stomach lining renews every five days. Change is unavoidable, yet we fear it. 3 How many times have people said to you in a critical way, “You’ve changed” Similarly, “changing your mind” is seen as a sign of weakness, although it could more properly be seen as evidence of strength. In fact, to live a life of vitality and health, the ability to change your mind is essential. 4 While your body stops growing long beforehand, your brain keeps developing into middle age, with white matter increasing in volume until your late 40s. Not only that, but the connections between neurons resulting from learning can continue to be created anew. Old dogs absolutely can learn new tricks. However, intellectually accepting change is not necessarily enough to bring change into life. 5 For instance, heart patients are better motivated with “joy of living” than fear of death. Create yourself a mindset for change: forget the fear of letting go of your old habits and focus on the joy that making change will bring. A．The good news is that you are never too old to change. B．The idea here is that through change stability is achieved. C．To really foster change, you have to access positive emotions. D．Regular exercise can help improve your ability to change quickly. E．We are often educated to stay constant, viewing change as negative. F．Many people believe that staying unchanged is the key to happiness. G．Your body tissue is in a constant state of turnover and regeneration. 【答案】1．B 2．G 3．E 4．A 5．C 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章围绕Change for Good这一核心，指出变化是生命的本质属性，稳定依托变化而存在且并非永恒；人们虽受固有观念影响畏惧、否定变化，但转变想法的能力是活出健康活力人生的关键；人即便年长也具备改变的生理基础，且仅理智接纳变化不够，需调动积极情绪、建立顺应变化的心态，主动拥抱并促成有益的改变。 1．根据上文“Equating health with stability, then you have to think again.(如果将健康等同于稳定，那你就得重新思考一下了)”以及后文“Even that stability is not permanent, but a temporary functional state. Your body seems solid, yet it is built on change.(即便这种稳定状态也不是永恒不变的，而只是一种暂时的机能状态。你的身体看似坚固，但实际上却是建立在不断变化之上的)”可知，空前指出将健康等同于稳定的想法需要重新思考，空后表明这种稳定也并非永恒，只是暂时的机能状态。B选项“这里的观点是，稳定是通过变化实现的”，承接前文对“健康=稳定”的反驳，提出正确的核心观点，与后文衔接自然。故选B。 2．根据后文“What’s the most solid and stable part? Your bones, which are replaced every three months. Every other organ is also in a state of renewal and destruction. Your skin renews monthly, and stomach lining renews every five days.(最坚固稳定的部分是什么呢？当然是骨骼，但它们每三个月就会重新生长一次。其他所有器官也都处于不断更新和衰败的状态。你的皮肤每月都会更新一次，胃黏膜则每五天就会更新一次)”可知，空后围绕骨骼、皮肤、胃黏膜等身体部位的不断更新展开，说明身体各部分都在持续变化。G选项“你的身体组织处于不断的更新和再生之中”，总领后文关于身体各器官、组织持续更替的内容，是段落主旨句。故选G。 3．根据上文“Change is unavoidable, yet we fear it.(变化是无法避免的，但我们却对其心怀恐惧)”以及后文“How many times have people said to you in a critical way, “You’ve changed” Similarly, “changing your mind” is seen as a sign of weakness, although it could more properly be seen as evidence of strength. In fact, to live a life of vitality and health, the ability to change your mind is essential.(人们曾多少次以批评的口吻对你说：“你变了。”同样，“改变主意”也被视为一种软弱的表现，尽管实际上它更应该被视为一种强大的体现。事实上，要想过充满活力和健康的生活，能够改变主意的能力是至关重要的)”可知，前文提到变化不可避免，但人们却害怕它，后文举例“你变了”的批评、“改变想法”被视为软弱，都是人们对变化的负面看法。E选项“我们常常被教导要保持不变，将变化视为负面的东西”，解释了人们害怕变化的原因，完美衔接上下文。故选E。 4．根据后文“While your body stops growing long beforehand, your brain keeps developing into middle age, with white matter increasing in volume until your late 40s. Not only that, but the connections between neurons resulting from learning can continue to be created anew. Old dogs absolutely can learn new tricks.(虽然你的身体在很久之前就停止了生长，但你的大脑却会一直持续发育到中年阶段。在40多岁的时候，大脑中的白质体积还会继续增加。不仅如此，由于学习而形成的神经元之间的连接也能够不断重新建立。老狗确实能够学会新技能)”可知，后文阐述大脑在中年仍会持续发育，神经元的连接能不断新生，说明年纪大也可以做出改变、学习新事物。A选项“好消息是，你永远不会因为太老而无法改变”，引出后文关于年龄与改变、大脑发育的内容，契合段落核心。故选A。 5．根据上文“However, intellectually accepting change is not necessarily enough to bring change into life.(然而，仅仅在思想上接受变革并不一定就能真正将变革付诸实践)”以及后文“For instance, heart patients are better motivated with “joy of living” than fear of death.(例如，对于心脏病患者而言，让他们产生“生活的乐趣”要比让他们惧怕死亡更能激发他们的积极性)”可知，空前提出仅在理智上接受变化不足以让生活发生改变，空后举例心脏病患者用“活着的喜悦”比用对死亡的恐惧更能激发动力，强调积极情绪的作用。C选项“要真正促成改变，你必须调动积极的情绪”，承上启下，点明实现改变的关键，与后文例子对应。故选C。 Passage 4 完形填空 （2026江苏四校联考高三上学期调研测试英语试题） One morning, I took my three-legged dog Wrigley for a walk. Wrigley suddenly stopped on the sidewalk; something caught his eye, 1 his nose. “One... two... three!” I pulled his lead, growing 2 . I was busy: breakfast, work, and coffee on my to-do list this morning. You’d think his missing back leg would make him less 3 , therefore, easier for me to keep him moving along, but it didn’t. A tripod (三脚架) can be stronger than a chair. Wrigley loved smelling trees and grasses, or poking his face into shrubs — hoping for rabbits or cats. When I almost lost patience, he 4 me to a spot to slow down, sense, and mark his presence. It was his way of saying: I am here. Wrigley and I both liked rocks, trees, and paying attention to the world’s small details — if I 5 long enough to notice. I wanted to experience things with my body and not my head. But I was often moving too fast to 6 what was laid out before me, anxious like a fish fighting upstream. On that walk, it 7 me that he had been teaching me to slow down and enjoy the 8 world. When I was lost in a sea of 9 , he brought my life down to ground level with his simple 10 to live in the moment. He only focused on what 11 him, unlike me, who was distracted by endless tasks. He greeted friends with full-body wags, lost in scratches, and reacted instantly — no overthinking. Once, I stepped on his paw in a hurry. He barked, but soon wagged his tail, offering 12 forgiveness and trust, which I should also show to family, loved ones, friends, most of all, 13 . With a satisfied look, he turned his head toward me, I fastened his collar and 14 the lead. “Wanna go?” The world of smells and sounds 15 . 1．A．instead of B．or rather C．other than D．more of 2．A．calm B．tired C．impatient D．nervous 3．A．stable B．fixed C．fast D．excited 4．A．chased B．drove C．dragged D．escaped 5．A．paused B．hurried C．struggled D．continued 6．A．appreciate B．overlook C．grasp D．dismiss 7．A．happened to B．dawned on C．came across D．went through 8．A．imagined B．sensory C．material D．inner 9．A．fears B．sorrows C．anxieties D．troubles 10．A．goal B．method C．strategy D．wisdom 11．A．delighted B．benefited C．relaxed D．rewarded 12．A．sudden B．quick C．short D．brief 13．A．him B．myself C．others D．itself 14．A．grabbed B．released C．pulled D．undid 15．A．left B．waited C．passed D．welcomed 【答案】1．B 2．C 3．A 4．C 5．A 6．A 7．B 8．B 9．C 10．D 11．A 12．B 13．B 14．C 15．B 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了作者在遛狗的时候从中明白了放慢脚步、享受当下的道理。 1．考查介词短语辨析。句意：Wrigley突然在人行道上停了下来；有什么东西吸引了他的目光，或者更确切地说，是他的鼻子。A. instead of代替；B. or rather更确切地说；C. other than除了；D. more of更多的。根据常识、空前“his eye”以及空后“his nose”可知，狗的鼻子非常灵敏，闻到了某个东西，这里强调是狗的鼻子。故选B。 2．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：“一……二……三！”我拉了拉他的牵引绳，越来越不耐烦。A. calm平静的；B. tired疲倦的；C. impatient不耐烦的；D. nervous紧张的。根据下文“I was busy: breakfast, work, and coffee on my to-do list this morning.”和“When I almost lost patience”可知，作者很忙，没时间陪狗耗时间，所以越来越不耐烦。故选C。 3．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：你可能会认为，他少了后腿，走起路来应该会更加不稳定，这样我就更容易让他走了，但事实并非如此。A. stable稳定的；B. fixed固定的；C. fast快速的；D. excited兴奋的。根据上文“his missing back leg”和下文“but it didn’t. A tripod (三脚架) can be stronger than a chair.”可知，作者以为狗少一只腿会走路不稳，但结果这三条腿形成的三角形结构却更加稳固。故选A。 4．考查动词词义辨析。句意：当我几乎失去耐心时，他拉着我去某个地方，放慢脚步，感受周围，并留下自己的痕迹。A. chased追逐；B. drove驾驶；C. dragged拖拽；D. escaped逃跑。根据上文“I pulled his lead”可知，作者牵着狗，中间有绳子连接，所以这里指狗拖着作者去自己想去的地方。故选C。 5．考查动词词义辨析。句意：Wrigley和我都喜欢石头、树木，也喜欢关注世界上的小细节——只要我停留的时间足够长，能注意到的话。A. paused暂停；B. hurried匆忙；C. struggled挣扎；D. continued继续。根据空后“long enough”可知，这里指停留时间长一些。故选A。 6．考查动词词义辨析。句意：但我经常走太快，无法欣赏摆在我面前的东西，像逆流而上的鱼儿一样焦虑。A. appreciate感激，欣赏；B. overlook忽视；C. grasp抓住；D. dismiss解散。too...to...结构表示“太……而不能……”，根据空前“moving too fast to”和空后“what was laid out before me, anxious like a fish fighting upstream”可知，作者走得很快，内心焦虑，所以他应该是欣赏不了呈现在眼前的东西。故选A。 7．考查动词短语辨析。句意：在那次散步中，我突然意识到，他一直在教我放慢脚步，享受感官世界。A. happened to发生在……身上；B. dawned on使开始明白；C. came across偶遇；D. went through经历。根据空后“that he had been teaching me to slow down and enjoy the ________ world”可知，作者从这次散步中明白了一些道理。故选B。 8．考查形容词词义辨析。句意参考上题。A. imagined想象的；B. sensory感觉的，感官的；C. material物质的；D. inner内部的。根据上文“Wrigley and I both liked rocks, trees, and paying attention to the world’s small details”可知，石头、树木、世界上的其他小细节，这些都是靠感官体验到的，所以这里指感官世界。故选B。 9．考查名词词义辨析。句意：当我迷失在焦虑的海洋中时，他用他简单的智慧把我的生活带到了地面，活在当下。 A. fears恐惧；B. sorrows悲伤；C. anxieties焦虑；D. troubles麻烦。根据上文“On that walk, it ________ me that he had been teaching me to slow down and enjoy the ________ world.”和空后“to live in the moment”可知，狗教会作者了一些道理，让作者学会活在当下，所以是狗用自己简单的智慧。故选C。 10．考查名词词义辨析。句意：A. goal目标；B. method方法；C. strategy策略；D. wisdom智慧。根据上文“anxious like a fish fighting upstream”可知，这里指作者焦虑的时候。故选D。 11．考查动词词义辨析。句意：他只专注于让他高兴的事情，不像我，我被无休止的任务分心了。A. delighted使高兴；B. benefited使受益；C. relaxed使放松；D. rewarded奖励。根据空后“unlike me, who was distracted by endless tasks”和下文“He greeted friends with full-body wags, lost in scratches, and reacted instantly — no overthinking.”可知，狗和作者不一样，作者总是被无休止的任务分心，而狗从不过度思考，会全身摇摆着迎接朋友，所以狗应该是爱做让自己高兴的事情。故选A。 12．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：它汪汪叫，但很快摇了摇尾巴，表示很快就会原谅和信任，这种原谅和信任我也应该展示给家人、爱人、朋友，最重要的是，我自己。A. sudden突然的；B. quick快的；C. short短的；D. brief简短的。根据空前“but soon wagged his tail”可知，狗很快就摇起了尾巴，说明他很快就原谅了作者。故选B。 13．考查代词词义辨析。句意参考上题。A. him他；B. myself我自己；C. others其他人；D. itself它自己。根据空前“I should also show to family, loved ones, friends”可知，作者认为自己应该向家人、爱人、朋友展示原谅和信任，结合空前的“most of all”和上文作者总是被一大堆任务困扰而焦虑可知，作者最重要的是原谅自己（myself）。故选B。 14．考查动词词义辨析。句意：他一脸满足地转过头来看着我，我扣好他的项圈，拉起牵引绳。A. grabbed抓住；B. released释放；C. pulled拉；D. undid解开。根据空前“I fastened his collar”和空后“the lead”可知，狗做完想做的事，满足了，作者扣好项圈准备拉着狗走。故选C。 15．考查动词词义辨析。句意：“想走吗？”充满气味和声音的世界等待着。A. left离开；B. waited等待；C. passed通过；D. welcomed欢迎。根据上文“Wrigley loved smelling trees and grasses, or poking his face into shrubs — hoping for rabbits or cats.”可知，狗喜欢闻东西和搜寻东西，现在狗在这里满足了探索，前方还有许多等待着去探索。故选B。 Passage 5 语法填空 （2026湖北省黄冈市高三上学期1月期末英语试题） In the hustle and bustle of modern life — where people often chase extreme success, argue over opposing views, 1 struggle with work-life imbalance — an ancient Chinese wisdom called the “Doctrine of the Mean” (Zhongyong) offers a precious guide. 2 (originate) from Confucianism, this philosophy emphasizes “moderation,” “balance,” and “harmony,” teaching people to avoid extremes and seek a middle way in all aspects of life. Contrary to the misunderstanding that it means “being ordinary” or “doing nothing,” the Confucian “Zhongyong” 3 (refer) to a state of “appropriate action” — doing the right thing, at the right time, in the right way. It was first 4 (systematic) clarified in the Confucian classic The Doctrine of the Mean, 5 states: “The mean is the highest virtue.” For Confucians, the “mean” is not a compromise between two extremes, but a harmonious integration of different elements. Today, as we face unprecedented challenges — from personal anxiety 6 global conflicts — the “Doctrine of the Mean” offers a timeless 7 (solve) ; seek balance, avoid extremes, and pursue harmony. It reminds us that the most sustainable happiness does not come from extreme success or endless desire, but from a balanced life; the 8 (stable) relationships do not come from blind agreement or constant conflict, but from mutual respect and compromise; the most prosperous society does not come from one-sided development or rigid rules, but from the harmonious coexistence of different elements. The “Doctrine of the Mean” is more than just an ancient Confucian concept — it’s a living wisdom that connects traditional Chinese culture to modern life. It teaches us to slow down in a fast-paced world, to listen in a noisy world, and 9 (balance) in an extreme world. In the end, the significance of the “Doctrine of the Mean” in modern society lies in its ability to help us find peace within 10 (we), build harmonious relationships, and create a better world for everyone. 【答案】1．or 2．Originating 3．refers 4．systematically 5．which 6．to 7．solution 8．most stable/stablest 9．to balance 10．ourselves 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了儒家“中庸之道”的内涵及其在现代社会中的意义和价值。 1．考查连词。句意：在现代生活的喧嚣中——人们常常追逐极端的成功，为对立的观点争论不休，或者与工作与生活的失衡作斗争——一种被称为“中庸之道”的中国古代智慧提供了宝贵的指导。本空连接三个并列的谓语部分chase extreme success、argue over opposing views、struggle with work-life imbalance，表选择关系，用连词or连接。故填or。 2．考查非谓语动词。句意：这一哲学源于儒家思想，强调“适度”、“平衡”和“和谐”，教导人们在生活的各个方面避免极端，寻求中间道路。本句已有谓语动词emphasizes，所以originate“起源于”用非谓语形式，originate和逻辑主语this philosophy之间是主动关系，用现在分词形式，作状语，句首单词首字母大写。故填Originating。 3．考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意：与“中庸”意味着“平庸”或“无所事事”的误解相反，儒家的“中庸”指的是一种“适当行动”的状态——在正确的时间，以正确的方式做正确的事情。refer to“指的是”。本句陈述客观事实，时态用一般现在时，主语the Confucian “Zhongyong”为第三人称单数，所以谓语动词也用单数形式。故填refers。 4．考查副词。句意：它最早在儒家经典《中庸》中被系统地阐明，其中指出：“中庸是至高无上的美德。”本空修饰动词clarified，应用副词systematically“系统地”，作状语。故填systematically。 5．考查定语从句。句意：它最早在儒家经典《中庸》中被系统地阐明，其中指出：“中庸是至高无上的美德。”本空引导非限制性定语从句，修饰先行词The Doctrine of the Mean，指物，关系词代替先行词在从句中作主语，应用关系代词which引导。故填which。 6．考查介词。句意：今天，当我们面临前所未有的挑战——从个人焦虑到全球冲突——“中庸之道”提供了一个永恒的解决方案：寻求平衡，避免极端，追求和谐。固定搭配：from...to...意为“从……到……”，to为介词。故填to。 7．考查名词。句意：今天，当我们面临前所未有的挑战——从个人焦虑到全球冲突——“中庸之道”提供了一个永恒的解决方案：寻求平衡，避免极端，追求和谐。本空作offer的宾语，用名词solution“解决方案”，由空前a可知，用单数形式。故填solution。 8．考查形容词最高级。句意：它提醒我们，最可持续的幸福不是来自极端的成功或无尽的欲望，而是来自平衡的生活；最稳定的关系不是来自盲目的同意或不断的冲突，而是来自相互尊重和妥协；最繁荣的社会不是来自片面的发展或僵化的规则，而是来自不同元素的和谐共存。根据上文“the most sustainable happiness”可知，此处用形容词最高级形式most stable或stablest“最稳定的”，作定语，修饰名词relationships。故填most stable或stablest。 9．考查非谓语动词。句意：它教会我们在快节奏的世界中放慢脚步，在喧嚣的世界中倾听，在极端的世界中保持平衡。teach sb. to do sth.表示“教导某人做某事”，此处和to slow down，to listen为并列关系，用动词balance“平衡”的不定式形式，作宾补。故填to balance。 10．考查反身代词。句意：最后，“中庸之道”在现代社会的意义在于它能够帮助我们在自己内心找到平静，建立和谐的关系，为每个人创造一个更美好的世界。本空作介词within的宾语，应用反身代词ourselves“我们自己”。within oneself表示 “在某人内心”。故填ourselves。 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
