It is a day dedicated to strengthening the ideals of peace, both within and among all nations and peoples. On this day, the UN calls for a 24-hour global ceasefire, urging all warring parties to lay down their arms and engage in dialogue. In recent years, the theme of the International Day of Peace has focused on issues like climate action and peace, as climate change is increasingly recognized as a threat multiplier that can exacerbate conflicts over resources such as water and land. Many countries organize various activities, including peace marches, educational programs, and art exhibitions, to raise public awareness of the importance of peace. Young people play a crucial role in promoting peace. Youth-led initiatives, such as intercultural exchange programs and online peace-building campaigns, have bridged divides between different communities. These efforts show that peace is not just the absence of war, but a positive commitment to justice, equality and mutual respect. 【译文欣赏】 每年9月21日的国际和平日由联合国于1981年设立,这一天致力于强化各国及各国人民内部与彼此之间的和平理念。在这一天,联合国呼吁全球实现24小时停火,敦促所有交战方放下武器、开展对话。 近年来,国际和平日的主题聚焦于气候行动与和平等议题,因为气候变化愈发被认为是“威胁放大器”,会加剧因水、土地等资源引发的冲突。许多国家会组织和平游行、教育活动、艺术展览等各类活动,提升公众对和平重要性的认知。 年轻人在促进和平方面发挥着关键作用。由青年主导的倡议,如跨文化交流项目和线上和平建设运动,弥合了不同社群之间的分歧。这些努力表明,和平不仅仅是没有战争,更是对正义、平等和相互尊重的积极践行。 【词汇积累】 12 / 23 学科网(北京)股份有限公司 学科网(北京)股份有限公司 1. establish v. 设立;建立 2. dedicate v. 致力于;奉献 3. strengthen v. 加强;巩固 4. ceasefire n. 停火 5. exacerbate v. 加剧;恶化 6. initiative n. 倡议;举措 7. bridge v. 弥合;架桥 8. divide n. 分歧;差异 9. absence n. 缺乏;缺席 10. mutual adj. 相互的;彼此的 【知识拓展】 1. 诺曼底登陆(D-Day landings):1944年6月6日,盟军在法国诺曼底海滩实施登陆作战,是第二次世界大战中欧洲西线战场的关键战役,加速了纳粹德国的溃败。 2. 联大第36/37号决议:1981年联合国大会通过该决议,正式确立国际和平日,旨在通过纪念活动推动全球和平事业发展。 3. 和平学(Peace Studies):一门研究和平、冲突解决、社会正义的跨学科领域,涉及政治学、社会学、心理学等多个学科。 【词汇延伸】 1. peace → peaceful(adj. 和平的)→ peacefully(adv. 和平地)→ peacemaker(n. 调解者) 2. conflict → conflicting(adj. 冲突的)→ conflictive(adj. 矛盾的)→ conflict resolution(n. 冲突解决) 3. defend → defence/defense(n. 防御)→ defensive(adj. 防御性的)→ defender(n. 防卫者) 4. negotiate → negotiation(n. 谈判)→ negotiator(n. 谈判者)→ negotiable(adj. 可协商的) 5. sacrifice → sacrificial(adj. 牺牲的)→ sacrificially(adv. 牺牲地)→ sacrifice oneself for(为……牺牲自己) 高考真题链接 (2025·新高考I卷·阅读C篇) While safety improvements might have been made to our streets in recent years, transport studies also show declines in pedestrian(行人)mobility, especially among young children. Many parents say there's too much traffic on the roads for their children to walk safely to school, so they pack them into the car instead. Dutch authors Thalia Verkade and Marco te Brommelstroet are bothered by facts like these. In their new book Movement: How to Take Back Our Streets and Transform Our Lives, they call for a rethink of our streets and the role they play in our lives. Life on city streets started to change decades ago. Whole neighbourhoods were destroyed to make way for new road networks and kids had to play elsewhere. Some communities fought back. Most famously, a Canadian journalist who had moved her family to Manhattan in the early 1950s led a campaign to stop the destruction of her local park. Describing her alarm at its proposed replacement with an expressway, Jane Jacobs called on her mayor(市长) to champion“New York as a decent place to live, and not just rush through.” Similar campaigns occurred in Australia in the late 1960s and 1970s as well.  Although these campaigns were widespread, the reality is that the majority of the western cities were completely redesigned around the needs of the motor car. The number of cars on roads has been increasing rapidly. In Australia we now have over twenty million cars for just over twenty-six million people, among the highest rate of car ownership in the world.  We invest a lot in roads that help us rush through, but we fail to account for the true costs. Do we really recognise what it costs us as a society when children can't move safely around our communities? The authors of Movement have it right: it's time to think differently about that street outside your front door.  28. What phenomenon does the author point out in paragraph 1?  A.Cars often get stuck on the road. B.Traffic accidents occur frequently.  C. People walk less and drive more. D.Pedestrians fail to follow the rules.  29. What were the Canadian journalist and other campaigners trying to do?  A. Keep their cities livable. B. Promote cultural diversity.  C. Help the needy families. D. Make expressways accessible.  30. What can be inferred about the campaigns in Australia in the late 1960s and 1970s?  A.They boosted the sales of cars. B. They turned out largely ineffective.  C. They won government support. D. They advocated building new parks.  31. What can be a suitable title for the text?  A. Why the Rush? B. What's Next? C. Where to Stay? D. Who to Blame? 答案: 28题:C 出处:第一段“safety improvements... declines in pedestrian mobility... parents... pack them into the car instead” 解析:首段明确说步行出行减少、家长开车送娃,C(步行更少、开车更多) 与原文同义替换;A“堵车”、B“事故频发”、D“行人违规”均无原文依据。 29题:A 出处:第三段“Jane Jacobs called on her mayor to champion ‘New York as a decent place to live, and not just rush through’” 解析:核心诉求是让城市成为宜居之地,A(保持城市宜居) 正确;B“文化多样性”、C“帮扶贫困家庭”、D“高速公路可达性”均与原文无关。 30题:B 出处:第四段“Although these campaigns were widespread, the reality is that the majority of the western cities were completely redesigned around the needs of the motor car” 解析:让步逻辑表明抗议虽多但城市仍以汽车为中心规划,可推知运动B(基本无效);A“促汽车销售”、C“获政府支持”、D“主张建新公园”均与原文矛盾或未提及。 31题:A 出处:全文末句“Do we really recognise what it costs us... it's time to think differently about that street outside your front door” 解析:全文批判“为通行而牺牲宜居”,A项“Why the Rush?”直击“rush through”的核心矛盾;B“下一步如何”、C“该住哪”、D“该怪谁”均偏离主旨。 命题特点 1. 紧扣原文细节,侧重逻辑考查 题目均围绕原文具体信息和句间逻辑设置,无脱离文本的主观臆断。28题考查现象归纳、29题考查人物行为目的、30题考查让步逻辑下的推理,31题考查全文主旨,覆盖细节理解、推理判断、主旨大意三大核心题型,符合高考阅读“全面考查基础阅读能力”的命题导向。 2. 话题贴近生活,凸显现实意义 选取“城市街道规划与居民出行”的社会话题,与日常生活关联紧密,体现高考阅读“选材兼具实用性与思想性”的特点,旨在引导考生关注社会现象。 3. 考点分布均衡,梯度设置合理 基础细节题(28、29题)与深层推理、主旨题(30、31题)搭配,难度由浅入深,既考查考生快速定位信息的能力,也检验对文本整体逻辑和主旨的把握。 命题规律 1. 细节题定位清晰,答案多为同义替换 细节题答案均可在原文找到明确依据,且常以同义替换形式呈现。如28题选项C“People walk less and drive more”对应原文“declines in pedestrian mobility... pack them into the car instead”;29题选项A“Keep their cities livable”对应原文“New York as a decent place to live”。 2. 推理题依托逻辑关联词,聚焦让步/转折关系 推理题多围绕文中的逻辑关联词设置,尤其是让步状语从句。如30题借助“Although”引导的让步逻辑,考查考生对“运动声势大但效果差”这一隐含信息的推断,符合高考“重逻辑推理”的命题趋势。 3. 主旨题关注首尾呼应,直击核心矛盾 主旨题答案与全文首尾内容紧密关联,核心是抓住文本批判的核心问题。如31题选项A“Why the Rush?”呼应原文“rush through”的表述,精准概括“城市过度追求通行效率而牺牲宜居性”的主旨。 解题思维 1. 细节题:定位+比对,排除无中生有项 解题步骤为“题干关键词定位原文→提取原文核心信息→将选项与原文信息比对”。优先排除原文未提及的选项,如28题的A(堵车)、B(事故频发)均属于无中生有。 2. 推理题:抓逻辑关联词,遵循“有据可推”原则 重点关注文中的让步、转折、因果等逻辑词,推理结论必须基于原文信息,不可过度延伸。如30题根据“Although”后的转折内容,推断出运动“基本无效”,避免主观认为“运动一定有效果”的误区。 3. 主旨题:梳理全文脉络,规避局部信息干扰 解题时需跳脱局部细节,梳理全文主线:首段提出“步行减少、开车增多”的现象→中间讲城市规划以汽车为中心的演变→尾段呼吁重新思考街道功能。主旨题选项需覆盖全文核心,排除仅概括某一段落的选项。 干扰项特征 1. 无中生有 干扰项内容在原文完全没有依据,属于命题人主观编造。如28题的A“Cars often get stuck on the road”、B“Traffic accidents occur frequently”,原文未提及堵车和事故相关内容。 2. 偷换概念 干扰项看似与原文相关,但偷换了核心词汇或概念范围。如29题的D“Make expressways accessible”,将原文“反对建高速公路破坏公园”偷换为“主张高速公路可达性”,完全偏离人物行为目的。 3. 过度推理 干扰项基于原文信息进行过度延伸,超出文本隐含范围。如30题的C“They won government support”,原文未提及政府态度,属于考生主观臆断。 4. 局部信息干扰 干扰项仅概括原文某一部分内容,无法涵盖全文主旨,常用于主旨题。如31题的C“Where to Stay?”,仅涉及“宜居”的局部话题,未触及“城市规划与通行效率”的核心矛盾。 1. 原句:While safety improvements might have been made to our streets in recent years, transport studies also show declines in pedestrian mobility, especially among young children. 结构:①让步状语从句While...;②主句transport studies show declines...;③状语especially among... 翻译:尽管近年街道安全有所改善,但交通研究显示行人出行量下降,儿童群体尤为明显。 考点:while引导让步状语从句,常考细节匹配与逻辑理解。 2. 原句:Although these campaigns were widespread, the reality is that the majority of the western cities were completely redesigned around the needs of the motor car. 结构:①让步状语从句Although...;②主句the reality is that...;③表语从句that the majority... 翻译:尽管这类运动声势浩大,但实际情况是大多数西方城市仍完全围绕汽车需求重新规划。 考点:让步状语从句+表语从句,高频用于推理判断题,核心抓“让步转折”后的现实结论。 1. pedestrian mobility 行人出行量;阅读高频搭配,例:declines in pedestrian mobility 2. pack into 塞进;原文“pack them into the car”,写作可用“pack the kids into the school bus” 3. make way for 为…让路;原文“destroyed to make way for new road networks”,例:old buildings pulled down to make way for a park 4. champion /ˈtʃæmpiən/ v. 倡导;原文“champion New York as a decent place”,写作可用“champion environmental protection” 5. around the needs of 围绕…的需求;原文“redesigned around the needs of the motor car”,例:curricula designed around students’ needs 6. account for 考虑到;原文“fail to account for the true costs”,例:we must account for long-term risks 综合实战演练 语篇 题型 体裁 内容简介 Passage1 阅读理解 说明文 说明了世界上每年都有语言消失,为此有人通过互联网技术来防止语言丧失 Passage2 阅读理解 说明文 主要讲的是研究表明大学可以通过支持大学生的福祉来改变他们的生活 Passage3 阅读理解 议论文 主要探讨AI诗歌在非专家评价中得分高于人类诗歌的现象及背后的争议 Passage4 阅读理解 议论文 主要论述了人们没有时间参与艺术这种现象以及艺术的重要性,艺术应该是一种生活中的必需品而不是奢侈品 Passage5 七选五 说明文 介绍徒步旅行作为一种古老而现代的锻炼方式,对身体和心理健康的益处,以及如何安全地进行徒步旅行 Passage6 七选五 议论文 论述怀旧的普遍现象、心理作用、对大脑的积极影响及平衡之道,指出其有助于应对当下与未来 Passage7 完形填空 记叙文 讲述了Lisa通过一次独自旅行突破自我,改变生活的故事,鼓励人们走出舒适区 Passage 1 (2025届山东省德州市高三下学期一模英语试题)Some of the world’s 7,000 languages disappear annually and many are endangered for not being spoken widely in formal settings like schools. A quiet fightback is under way in communities that feel their traditions are drowned out by the dominance of the most globally spoken languages. Tochi Precious, a Nigerian, says, “It pains me to see a language dying off, because it’s not just about the language, but about the history and culture associated with it.” It was the community aspect that brought her to join efforts to save Igbo, an endangered African language. Ensuring there’s a substantial record of words and meanings, and how it is written and used is key, according to campaigners like Precious, who aid others in their languages’ protection through the organisation Wikitongues. Amrit Sufi, an Indian speaking Angika, records videos and uploads them to preserve its oral culture via Wikitongues, too. “It’s urgent to document and make it accessible, not just stored in a library,” she says. “Oral culture is disappearing as new generations are more subject to consuming industry-produced music rather than sitting in groups and singing. They’re ashamed to speak it due to a perceived dishonor attached to it, seeing Angika beneath dominant languages.” Wikitongues focuses on helping document languages using collective resources such as dictionaries and alternative-language Wikipedia entries. Wikipedia is favoured by language activists as a way to upload media and build effective and affordable dictionaries. There are moves to use artificial intelligence to document languages by processing texts and feeding them into chatbots. Many activists create books, videos and recordings. Community radio stations also have a long record of providing services in local languages. Despite such preservation, activists then have to persuade people to use a language — a major challenge. “While Igbo is one of Nigeria’s largest languages, parents believe only English is useful for children’s future, insisting that if they don’t speak English, they appear ignorant and don’t belong,” Precious says. “But efforts to save it have worked — the language is flowering again.” 1. How do Precious and Sufi help prevent language loss? A. Through national programs. B. Through word of mouth. C. Through mass music formats. D. Through Internet technology. 2. What may be the reason for the downfall of Angika according to Sufi? A. Decline in population. B. Lack of job-market demands. C. Prejudice against Angika. D. Absence of formal education. 3. What is the toughest thing facing activists about an endangered language? A. Promoting its use. B. Building community cooperation. C. Obtaining financial support. D. Getting advanced recording devices. 4. What is Precious’ attitude towards the Igbo rescue move? A. Skeptical. B. Positive. C. Pessimistic. D. Uncaring. 【答案】1. D 2. C 3. A 4. B 【语篇解读】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了世界上每年都有语言消失,为此有人通过互联网技术来防止语言丧失。 1. 细节理解题。根据第二段“Ensuring there’s a substantial record of words and meanings, and how it is written and used is key, according to campaigners like Precious, who aid others in their languages’ protection through the organisation Wikitongues.(像Precious这样的活动人士通过维基语言组织帮助其他人保护他们的语言,他们表示,确保有大量的单词和含义记录,以及如何书写和使用是关键)”以及第三段“Amrit Sufi, an Indian speaking Angika, records videos and uploads them to preserve its oral culture via Wikitongues, too.(Amrit Sufi,一个说Angika语的印度人,也通过维基语言录制视频并上传,以保存其口头文化)”可知,Precious和Sufi通过互联网技术帮助防止语言丧失。故选D。 2. 细节理解题。根据第三段“They’re ashamed to speak it due to a perceived dishonor attached to it, seeing Angika beneath dominant languages.(他们羞于说这句话,因为他们觉得这是一种耻辱,认为安吉卡在主流语言之下)”可知,Sufi认为对安吉卡的偏见导致了安吉卡的衰败。故选C。 3. 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Despite such preservation, activists then have to persuade people to use a language — a major challenge.(尽管有这样的保护,活动人士还必须说服人们使用一种语言——这是一个重大挑战)”可知,对于濒危语言,活动人士面临的最大难题是促进其使用。故选A。 4. 推理判断题。根据最后一段“But efforts to save it have worked — the language is flowering again.(但拯救它的努力取得了成效——这种语言再次开花结果)”可知,Precious对伊博人的救援行动持积极态度。故选B。 Passage 2 (2025届河南省创新发展联盟高三下学期一模英语试题)Historically, a university’s primary role has been to ensure students’ outstanding performance academically, but higher education can also change lives by supporting their well-being. Despite growing evidence of the importance of students’ well-being and an abundance of best practices, most institutions have yet to prioritize it as much as they do with enrollment(入学), graduation and grades. A new study led by University of Maine researchers provides guidance on how institutions can support and improve students’ well-being, and breaks down the various benefits for learners during and beyond their university career. The study defines well-being as a combined sense of belonging, agency, purpose, identity, citizen engagement and financial stability. Quoting a long-term investigation, researchers identified key student experiences that result in improved well-being later in life: working at a job or internship(实习); conducting a project that takes a semester or longer to complete; extensively participating in extracurricular(课外的) activities; having at least one professor who either personally cares about their students, and encourages them to pursue their goals or makes them excited to learn. “There is a growing recognition of the importance of affective student outcomes such as a sense of belonging and agency, as well as a wealth of evidence showing that student-centered practices can meaningfully support these. We hope that this will encourage other educators to consider how to support well-being in their own learning context,” said Holly White, lead researcher. Researchers identified six guiding principles for improving students’ well-being, among which are Research Learning Experiences (RLEs). According to researchers, RLEs encourage “partner relationships and a sense of belonging, as well as developing agency, purpose and identity through enriching research experiences.” “A unique feature of our RLEs is that they are open to all entering first-year students, no matter what prior experiences students may have had. Our early results on the positive impact of RLEs on students’ overall well-being are very encouraging.” said John Volin, study co-author. “I think it’s really important to recognize that we can support students’ well-being and learning. These two aspects are not contradictory or in a zero-sum situation. It also doesn’t have to be one or the other.” White said. 1. Which may fail to improve students’ well-being according to the text? A. Gaining an internship opportunity. B. Engaging in after-class activities widely. C. Carrying out a long-term project with others. D. Having a professor who is strict about their study. 2. What can we know about RLEs? A. They have been practiced in many universities. B. They are mainly targeted at students lacking in experience. C. They play a positive role in enhancing students’ well-being. D. They are the best method among the guiding principles identified. 3. What do White’s words in the last paragraph suggest? A. Student learning is more important than well-being. B. Universities should take students’ well-being more seriously. C. It is difficult to support students’ well-being in many universities. D. Universities can help with students’ well-being and studies at the same time. 4. What is the best title for the text? A. Research on Improving Students’ Well-Being B. Challenges in Supporting Students’ Well-Being C. The Role of Research Learning Experiences in Universities D. The Importance of Students’ Well-Being in Higher Education 【答案】1. D 2. C 3. D 4. A 【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲的是研究表明大学可以通过支持大学生的福祉来改变他们的生活。 1. 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Quoting a long-term investigation, researchers identified key student experiences that result in improved well-being later in life: working at a job or internship (实习); conducting a project that takes a semester or longer to complete; extensively participating in extracurricular (课外的) activities; having at least one professor who either personally cares about their students, and encourages them to pursue their goals or makes them excited to learn.(研究人员引用了一项长期调查,确定了学生在以后的生活中会改善幸福感的关键经历:工作或实习;进行一个需要一个学期或更长时间才能完成的项目;广泛参加课外活动;至少有一位教授亲自关心他们的学生,鼓励他们追求自己的目标,或者让他们兴奋地学习。)”可知,获得实习机会、广泛参加课外活动以及与其他人一起开展长期项目都会改善幸福感,而有一个对他们学习要求严格的教授可能无法提高学生的幸福感。故选D项。 2. 推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段“According to researchers, RLEs encourage “partner relationships and a sense of belonging, as well as developing agency, purpose and identity through enriching research experiences.(根据研究人员的说法,RLEs鼓励“伙伴关系和归属感,以及通过丰富研究经验来发展能动性、目标和身份。)”以及“Our early results on the positive impact of RLEs on students’ overall well-being are very encouraging.(我们关于RLEs对学生整体幸福感的积极影响的初步结果非常令人鼓舞。)”可知,RLEs对提高学生的幸福感起着积极的作用。故选C项。 3. 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段““I think it’s really important to recognize that we can support students’ well-being and learning. These two aspects are not contradictory or in a zero-sum situation. It also doesn’t have to be one or the other. ” White said.(“我认为认识到我们可以支持学生的健康和学习是非常重要的。这两个方面并不矛盾,也不是零和博弈。它也不一定非得是其中之一。”White说。)”可知,White在最后一段的话表明大学可以同时帮助学生的健康和学习。故选D项。 4. 主旨大意题。文章第一段“Historically, a university’ s primary role has been to ensure students’ outstanding performance academically, but higher education can also change lives by supporting their well-being.(从历史上看,大学的主要作用是确保学生在学业上取得优异成绩,但高等教育也可以通过支持他们的福祉来改变他们的生活。)”提出话题——高等教育也可以通过支持大学生的福祉来改变他们的生活,文章第二段讲的是支持和改善学生福祉的一项新研究,第三、四段讲的是该研究对幸福的定义及学生在以后的生活中会改善幸福感的关键经历,第五段讲的是该项研究的研究人员确认了包括研究性学习经验(RLEs)在内的提高学生幸福感的六条指导原则,文章最后一段以White的话对全文进行总结,指出支持学生健康和学习两个方面并不矛盾。纵观全文,文章主要在围绕着提高学生幸福感的研究来展开,所以A项Research on Improving Students’ Well-Being(提高学生幸福感的研究)作为文章标题最合适。故选A项。 Passage 3 (24-25学年高二上·山东东营·期末)Poetry is maybe the most human of all human endeavors, which is thought least likely to be taken over by AI. But according to a recent study, this is not so, as non-experts rate AI poetry higher than poetry written by humans. The researchers chose 10 famous poets: Samuel Butler, Geoffrey Chaucer, William Shakespeare... They then asked ChatGTP 3.5 to write poems in the style of each poet. And they asked the participants, who were not experts, to rate the work on 14 scales, like profundity, rhythm, originality, imagery, beauty, emotion, and overall quality. What was surprising indeed is that most of these non-experts, when they were not told whether a poem was composed by AI or by a human systematically, ranked the ones that were actually written by AI higher than the ones written by humans. What does this experiment show exactly? The researchers are very clear that these findings were limited to non-experts. The research team’s own explanation has to do with participants’ lack of expertise, concluding that these non-experts preferred the AI poetry because it was less complicated, and more straightforward This must be part of the story, but it’s not the whole story. Take another deeply human endeavor, wine-tasting, as an example. It was first reported that non-experts are very bad at making the simplest distinctions about wine, but shortly afterwards it was found that experts make the same kind of mistakes and sometimes they in fact made more mistakes. Plus, it is usually tricky to do experiments on aesthetic (美学) appreciation. This experiment was about the participants’ self-report about their experiences and, as we know from literally thousands of studies, self-reports can be misleading in most contexts. So this experiment was not about the real aesthetic experience of poetry, which is what really maters. It was about what participants thought about their aesthetic experience. The study is important and creative. But it doesn’t show that promising poets should abandon their passion. Not yet, anyway. 1.What is the second paragraph mainly about? A.The process of the experiment. B.The principle of the experiment. C.The subject of the experiment. D.The result of the experiment. 2.Why does the author mention “wine-tasting” in paragraph 5? A.To compare poetry with wine. B.To show non-experts’ preferences. C.To prove the research findings. D.To argue against the team’s explanation. 3.What can be inferred about the non-experts according to the text? A.They showed good aesthetic appreciation skills. B.They had prior experience in evaluating poetic quality. C.They rated the poems based on their aesthetic experience. D.They were expert in distinguishing AI poetry from human poetry. 4.What is the author’s attitude towards the future of human poetry? A.Optimistic. B.Indifferent. C.Critical. D.Doubtful. 【答案】1.A 2.D 3.C 4.A 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。主要探讨AI诗歌在非专家评价中得分高于人类诗歌的现象及背后的争议。 1. 主旨大意题。根据第二段“The researchers chose 10 famous poets: Samuel Butler, Geoffrey Chaucer, William Shakespeare... They then asked ChatGTP 3.5 to write poems in the style of each poet. And they asked the participants, who were not experts, to rate the work on 14 scales, like profundity, rhythm, originality, imagery, beauty, emotion, and overall quality.(研究人员选择了10位著名诗人:塞缪尔·巴特勒、杰弗里·乔叟、威廉·莎士比亚……然后他们让ChatGTP 3.5模仿每位诗人的风格写诗。他们还让非专家参与者从14个维度对这些作品进行评分,如深刻性、韵律、独创性 2. 3. 、意象、美感、情感和整体质量)”可知,该段详细描述了实验的具体操作步骤,即实验过程。故选A项。 2. 推理判断题。根据第五段“This must be part of the story, but it’s not the whole story. Take another deeply human endeavor, wine-tasting, as an example. It was first reported that non-experts are very bad at making the simplest distinctions about wine, but shortly afterwards it was found that experts make the same kind of mistakes and sometimes they in fact made more mistakes.(这一定是部分原因,但并非全部。以另一项极具人类特色的活动—— 3. 品酒为例。最初有报道称,非专家在对葡萄酒进行最简单的区分时表现很差,但不久之后发现,专家也会犯同样的错误,有时甚至犯更多的错误)”可推知,作者提到品酒是为了反驳研究团队关于“非专家因缺乏专业知识而更偏好AI诗歌”的解释,说明专家也可能犯错,不能仅将原因归结于非专家的专业性不足。故选D项。 3.推理判断题。根据第六段中的“This experiment was about the participants’ self-report about their experiences and, as we know from literally thousands of studies, self-reports can be misleading in most contexts. So this experiment was not about the real aesthetic experience of poetry, which is what really maters. It was about what participants thought about their aesthetic experience.(这个实验是关于参与者对自己体验的自我报告,正如我们从成千上万的研究中所知道的,在大多数情况下,自我报告可能会产生误导。所以这个实验并不是关于诗歌真正的审美体验,而这才是真正重要的。它是关于参与者对自己审美体验的看法)”可推断,非专家是根据自己的审美体验来给诗歌评分的,只是这种自我报告可能存在误导性。故选C项。 4.推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“The study is important and creative. But it doesn’t show that promising poets should abandon their passion. Not yet, anyway.(这项研究既重要又有创意。但这并不意味着有前途的诗人应该放弃他们的热情。至少现在还不是)”可知,作者认为该研究虽有意义,但并不能说明人类诗歌会被AI取代,对人类诗歌的未来持乐观态度。故选A项。 Passage 4 (23-24学年高二上·山东威海·期末)According to Americans for the Arts, more than two-thirds of U.S. adults say that the arts “lift me up beyond everyday experiences.” Still, only 30 percent attended a concert of any type in 2017; 23 percent visited an art museum; six percent attended a literary event. Fewer than half actively created art of any kind. What has caused this phenomenon is that we do not have time for art — we are weighed down by our day-to-day responsibilities. Maybe you like to play a little background music while you work but most of us rarely, if ever, went to see a live performance, let alone visited a gallery. And reading poetry? Perhaps not since high school. Too often, we let the realities of life get in the way of the arts, which can feel insignificant by comparison. But this is a mistake. The arts might be the single most in-depth experience you will ever be given to explore the nature and meaning of life. And if you make time to consume and produce art, you will find your life become fuller and happier. Some philosophers address the problem of life consumed by work and material pursuits. They argue that art provides relief from this routine, expanding our perspective and bringing us closer to true reality.   Think of a time when you heard a piece of music and wanted to cry. Or recall your fast heartbeats as you stared at a delicate lifelike sculpture. Chances are that it probably stimulated (刺激) a sudden awakening, much like the shock from a lungful of pure oxygen after breathing in smoggy air. If you are among those who feel that art is “pure pleasure to experience and participate in,” you might see it the same way you see eating out, or skydiving: as a luxury (奢侈品) item in your limited budgets of time and money. As such, it probably gets the same sort of treatment as any minor hobby. Don’t make this error. Treat art more like exercise or sleep: a necessity for a life full of deep satisfaction. 1.What does paragraph 1 focus on? A.The opinion of U.S. adults about art. B.The types of art that U.S. adults engage with. C.The mismatch between value and behaviour as to art. D.The connection between everyday experiences and art. 2.What is a mistaken idea in the author’s opinion? A.Art reveals the nature of life. B.Art gives way to material pursuits. C.Life without art is meaningless. D.Background music is a kind of art. 3.What does the author want to convey in paragraph 5? A.Art awakes people’s talents. B.Art improves physical health. C.Art brings us closer to nature. D.Art makes life fuller and happier. 4.What might be the best title? A.Art: A Habit, Not a Luxury B.Art: A Bridge, Not a Barrier C.Art: A Decoration, Not a Reality D.Art: A Pleasure, Not a Burden 【答案】1.C 2.B 3.D 4.A 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要论述了人们没有时间参与艺术这种现象以及艺术的重要性,艺术应该是一种生活中的必需品而不是奢侈品。 1.主旨大意题。根据第一段“According to Americans for the Arts, more than two-thirds of U.S. adults say that the arts “lift me up beyond everyday experiences.” Still, only 30 percent attended a concert of any type in 2017; 23 percent visited an art museum; six percent attended a literary event. Fewer than half actively created art of any kind.(根据美国艺术协会的说法,超过三分之二的美国成年人说艺术“让我超越了日常经历”。尽管如此,2017年只有30%的人参加了任何类型的音乐会;23%的人参观了艺术博物馆;6%的人参加了文学活动。只有不到一半的人积极创作艺术)”可知,第一段主要讲的是就艺术而言,价值观和行为之间的不匹配。故选C。 2.细节理解题。根据第三段“Too often, we let the realities of life get in the way of the arts, which can feel insignificant by comparison. But this is a mistake.(很多时候,我们让现实生活阻碍了艺术,相比之下,艺术显得微不足道。但这是一个错误)”可知,艺术让位于物质追求是错误的想法。故选B。 3.推理判断题。根据第五段“Think of a time when you heard a piece of music and wanted to cry. Or recall your fast heartbeats as you stared at a delicate lifelike sculpture. Chances are that it probably stimulated (刺激) a sudden awakening, much like the shock from a lungful of pure oxygen after breathing in smoggy air.(想想当你听到一段音乐想哭的时候。或者回忆起当你盯着一个精致的栩栩如生的雕塑时你的心跳。很有可能是它刺激了突然的觉醒,就像呼吸了烟雾弥漫的空气后,肺部吸入纯氧后的休克一样)”可推知,作者在第5段想表达的是艺术使生活更充实、更快乐。故选D。 4.主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是最后一段“If you are among those who feel that art is “pure pleasure to experience and participate in,” you might see it the same way you see eating out, or skydiving: as a luxury (奢侈品) item in your limited budgets of time and money. As such, it probably gets the same sort of treatment as any minor hobby. Don’t make this error. Treat art more like exercise or sleep: a necessity for a life full of deep satisfaction.(如果你是那些认为艺术是“体验和参与的纯粹乐趣”的人中的一员,你可能会像在外面吃饭或跳伞一样看待它:在你有限的时间和金钱预算中,它是一种奢侈品。因此,它可能会像其他小爱好一样受到同样的对待。不要犯这种错误。把艺术看作是锻炼或睡眠:是充满深刻满足感的生活的必需品)”可知,文章主要论述了人们没有时间参与艺术这种现象以及艺术的重要性,艺术应该是一种生活中的必需品而不是奢侈品。由此可知,A选项“Art: A Habit, Not a Luxury(艺术:一种习惯,而不是奢侈品)”适合作本文最佳标题。故选A。 Passage5 (2025届浙江省稽阳联谊学校高三4月联考英语试题) Hiking: A Timeless Exercise Gaining Modern Popularity Hiking, a form of exercise older than exercise itself, is so hot right now. From2018 to 2021, the number of Americans hitting the trails increased from around 48 million to 59 million. 1 Hiking offers all the cardiovascular (心血管) benefits of walking. 2 The uneven trails strengthen legs and muscles more effectively than walking on flat surfaces. This in turn improves balance and stability, making hiking a full-body workout. 3 . Spending time in nature and experiencing awe-inspiring landscapes can reduce stress and anxiety. A 2015 study found that people who walked in nature for 90 minutes were less likely to engage in depression — compared to those who walked in urban environments. However, hiking does carry some risks. To ensure a safe and enjoyable experience, it’s important to take a few simple precautions. If you’re a new hiker, go with a friend or join a local group. 4 Remember: The point is to be able to see the views and smell the flowers. In conclusion, hiking is more than just exercise. 5 By following basic safety guidelines, hikers can ensure they return home safe and ready for their next adventure. Whether you’re a seasoned hiker or a beginner, the trails offer something for everyone. A.Lace up your boots and start exploring. B.Hiking also promotes mental well-being. C.But its advantages go further than heart health. D.Push yourself harder and faster through challenging trails. E.It’s a well-rounded activity that benefits both the body and mind. F.Always inform someone of your plans and check in with them afterward. G.This growth reflects hiking's appeal as a way to stay active and connect with nature. 【答案】1.G 2.C 3.B 4.F 5.E 【导语】本文是一篇说明文,旨在介绍徒步旅行作为一种古老而现代的锻炼方式,对身体和心理健康的益处,以及如何安全地进行徒步旅行。 1.根据空格前的句子“Hiking, a form of exercise older than exercise itself, is so hot right now.

Movies like Barbie, Indiana Jones, and Top Gun are drawing huge crowds by bringing back old favorites. 1 On the surface, nostalgia simply makes us feel good. 2 According to Professor Ziyan Yang from the Institute of Psychology, CAS, nostalgia creates feelings of warmth, belonging, and even a mental escape to the past. During tough times — whether personal struggles or global crises — nostalgia acts like an emotional safety net. Movies and music are powerful triggers because they recreate familiar emotions and experiences. 3 First, it gives us a sense of control. Even when life feels unpredictable, reflecting on our past helps us feel more grounded and secure. Second, nostalgia strengthens social bonds. Though it seems like a personal experience, nostalgic memories often remind us of family, friends, and shared moments. What does nostalgia do to our brains? Mostly good things! Studies show it boosts happiness, creativity, and energy by activating positive emotions. 4 This youthful optimism encourages us to take risks and chase our goals. Some researchers suggest nostalgia acts like a “psychological immune system”, helping us cope with stress. But can too much nostalgia be harmful? In small amounts, it’s healthy. However, if we think about the past too much, it can keep us from moving forward. The key is balance — enjoying memories without losing sight of the present. 5 It helps us reconnect with our true selves and remember who we really are. In short, nostalgia isn’t just about reliving the past — it’s a tool that helps us navigate the present and future with hope. A.But why do we love nostalgia so much? B.This is why reunions feel so meaningful to us. C.Nostalgia also serves key psychological needs. D.However, psychology experts say there’s more to it. E.It can even make us feel younger and more optimistic. F.Remembering happy memories brings comfort and joy. G.Still, in general, nostalgia is a natural and positive part of life. 【答案】1.A 2.D 3.C 4.E 5.G 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章论述怀旧的普遍现象、心理作用、对大脑的积极影响及平衡之道,指出其有助于应对当下与未来。 1.由上文“Nostalgia — the warm feeling of longing for the past— is everywhere in today’s culture. Movies like Barbie, Indiana Jones, and Top Gun are drawing huge crowds by bringing back old favorites.(怀旧之情——对过去的温暖渴望——在当今的文化中无处不在。像《芭比》、《夺宝奇兵》和《壮志凌云》这样的电影通过重现经典而吸引了大量观众。)”及下文“On the surface, nostalgia simply makes us feel good.(从表面上看,怀旧只是让我们感觉良好。)”对怀旧情感的详细解释可知,本空应询问为什么人们喜欢怀旧。A选项“But why do we love nostalgia so much?

During tough times — whether personal struggles or global crises — nostalgia acts like an emotional safety net. Movies and music are powerful triggers because they recreate familiar emotions and experiences.(据中国科学院心理研究所杨紫嫣教授介绍,怀旧之情会让人产生温暖、归属感,甚至是一种精神上对过去的逃避。在艰难时期——无论是个人困境还是全球性危机——怀旧都如同一道情感安全网。电影和音乐是强大的怀旧触发因素,因为它们能重现熟悉的情感和经历。)”可知,本空需体现“表面现象”与“深层作用”的转折。D选项“However, psychology experts say there’s more to it.(然而,心理学专家表示,事情远不止于此。)”既转折上文“简单的表面感受”,又引出下文专家对怀旧深层意义的解读,符合逻辑。故选D。 3.由下文“First, it gives us a sense of control. Even when life feels unpredictable, reflecting on our past helps us feel more grounded and secure. Second, nostalgia strengthens social bonds.(首先,它给我们一种控制感。即使生活感觉不可预测,回顾过去也能让我们感到更加踏实和安全。其次,怀旧加强了社会联系。)”可知,本段说明怀旧带心理上的满足。C选项“Nostalgia also serves key psychological needs.(怀旧也满足关键的心理需求。)”直接概括了下文的内容,起到了引领下文的作用。故选C。 4.由上文“What does nostalgia do to our brains? Mostly good things! Studies show it boosts happiness, creativity, and energy by activating positive emotions.(怀旧对我们的大脑有什么影响?大部分都是好东西!研究表明,它通过激活积极情绪来提高幸福感、创造力和能量。)”及下文“This youthful optimism encourages us to take risks and chase our goals.(这种年轻的乐观心态鼓励我们冒险、追求目标。)”可知,本空应继续解释怀旧对大脑的影响,强调怀旧能让人们感觉年轻乐观。E选项“It can even make us feel younger and more optimistic.(它甚至能让我们感觉更年轻、更乐观。)”能承上启下,且句中“younger and more optimistic”与下文“This youthful optimism”相照应。故选E。 5.由上文“But can too much nostalgia be harmful? In small amounts, it’s healthy. However, if we think about the past too much, it can keep us from moving forward. The key is balance — enjoying memories without losing sight of the present.(但太多的怀旧会有害吗?少量摄入是健康的。然而,如果我们过多地思考过去,它可能会阻碍我们前进。关键在于平衡——在不忽视当下的情况下享受回忆。)”及下文“It helps us reconnect with our true selves and remember who we really are.(它帮助我们重新连接真实的自我,记住自己的本质。)”可知,本空需回归“怀旧的整体积极属性”,引出下文对其正面作用的补充。G选项“Still, in general, nostalgia is a natural and positive part of life.(不过,总的来说,怀旧是生活中自然且积极的一部分。)”能承上启下,符合题意。故选G。 Passage7 (23-24学年高二上·山东菏泽·期末)We all have that one thing we’d love to do but we’re too scared to try.

United Nations in 1981. It is a day dedicated to strengthening the ideals of peace, both within and among all nations and peoples. On this day, the UN calls for a 24-hour global ceasefire, urging all warring parties to lay down their arms and engage in dialogue. In recent years, the theme of the International Day of Peace has focused on issues like climate action and peace, as climate change is increasingly recognized as a threat multiplier that can exacerbate conflicts over resources such as water and land. Many countries organize various activities, including peace marches, educational programs, and art exhibitions, to raise public awareness of the importance of peace. Young people play a crucial role in promoting peace. Youth-led initiatives, such as intercultural exchange programs and online peace-building campaigns, have bridged divides between different communities. These efforts show that peace is not just the absence of war, but a positive commitment to justice, equality and mutual respect. 【译文欣赏】 每年9月21日的国际和平日由联合国于1981年设立,这一天致力于强化各国及各国人民内部与彼此之间的和平理念。在这一天,联合国呼吁全球实现24小时停火,敦促所有交战方放下武器、开展对话。 近年来,国际和平日的主题聚焦于气候行动与和平等议题,因为气候变化愈发被认为是“威胁放大器”,会加剧因水、土地等资源引发的冲突。许多国家会组织和平游行、教育活动、艺术展览等各类活动,提升公众对和平重要性的认知。 年轻人在促进和平方面发挥着关键作用。由青年主导的倡议,如跨文化交流项目和线上和平建设运动,弥合了不同社群之间的分歧。这些努力表明,和平不仅仅是没有战争,更是对正义、平等和相互尊重的积极践行。 【词汇积累】 1. establish v. 设立;建立 2. dedicate v. 致力于;奉献 3. strengthen v. 加强;巩固 4. ceasefire n. 停火 5. exacerbate v. 加剧;恶化 6. initiative n. 倡议;举措 7. bridge v. 弥合;架桥 8. divide n. 分歧;差异 9. absence n. 缺乏;缺席 10. mutual adj. 相互的;彼此的 【知识拓展】 1. 诺曼底登陆(D-Day landings):1944年6月6日,盟军在法国诺曼底海滩实施登陆作战,是第二次世界大战中欧洲西线战场的关键战役,加速了纳粹德国的溃败。 2. 联大第36/37号决议:1981年联合国大会通过该决议,正式确立国际和平日,旨在通过纪念活动推动全球和平事业发展。 3. 和平学(Peace Studies):一门研究和平、冲突解决、社会正义的跨学科领域,涉及政治学、社会学、心理学等多个学科。 【词汇延伸】 1. peace → peaceful(adj. 和平的)→ peacefully(adv. 和平地)→ peacemaker(n. 调解者) 2. conflict → conflicting(adj. 冲突的)→ conflictive(adj. 矛盾的)→ conflict resolution(n. 冲突解决) 3. defend → defence/defense(n. 防御)→ defensive(adj. 防御性的)→ defender(n. 防卫者) 4. negotiate → negotiation(n. 谈判)→ negotiator(n. 谈判者)→ negotiable(adj. 可协商的) 5. sacrifice → sacrificial(adj. 牺牲的)→ sacrificially(adv. 牺牲地)→ sacrifice oneself for(为……牺牲自己) 高考真题链接 (2025·新高考I卷·阅读C篇) While safety improvements might have been made to our streets in recent years, transport studies also show declines in pedestrian(行人)mobility, especially among young children. Many parents say there's too much traffic on the roads for their children to walk safely to school, so they pack them into the car instead. Dutch authors Thalia Verkade and Marco te Brommelstroet are bothered by facts like these. In their new book Movement: How to Take Back Our Streets and Transform Our Lives, they call for a rethink of our streets and the role they play in our lives. Life on city streets started to change decades ago. Whole neighbourhoods were destroyed to make way for new road networks and kids had to play elsewhere. Some communities fought back. Most famously, a Canadian journalist who had moved her family to Manhattan in the early 1950s led a campaign to stop the destruction of her local park. Describing her alarm at its proposed replacement with an expressway, Jane Jacobs called on her mayor(市长) to champion“New York as a decent place to live, and not just rush through.” Similar campaigns occurred in Australia in the late 1960s and 1970s as well.  Although these campaigns were widespread, the reality is that the majority of the western cities were completely redesigned around the needs of the motor car. The number of cars on roads has been increasing rapidly. In Australia we now have over twenty million cars for just over twenty-six million people, among the highest rate of car ownership in the world.  We invest a lot in roads that help us rush through, but we fail to account for the true costs. Do we really recognise what it costs us as a society when children can't move safely around our communities? The authors of Movement have it right: it's time to think differently about that street outside your front door.  28. What phenomenon does the author point out in paragraph 1?  A.Cars often get stuck on the road. B.Traffic accidents occur frequently.  C. People walk less and drive more. D.Pedestrians fail to follow the rules.  29. What were the Canadian journalist and other campaigners trying to do?  A. Keep their cities livable. B. Promote cultural diversity.  C. Help the needy families. D. Make expressways accessible.  30. What can be inferred about the campaigns in Australia in the late 1960s and 1970s?  A.They boosted the sales of cars. B. They turned out largely ineffective.  C. They won government support. D. They advocated building new parks.  31. What can be a suitable title for the text?  A. Why the Rush? B. What's Next? C. Where to Stay? D. Who to Blame? 命题特点 1. 紧扣原文细节,侧重逻辑考查 题目均围绕原文具体信息和句间逻辑设置,无脱离文本的主观臆断。28题考查现象归纳、29题考查人物行为目的、30题考查让步逻辑下的推理,31题考查全文主旨,覆盖细节理解、推理判断、主旨大意三大核心题型,符合高考阅读“全面考查基础阅读能力”的命题导向。 2. 话题贴近生活,凸显现实意义 选取“城市街道规划与居民出行”的社会话题,与日常生活关联紧密,体现高考阅读“选材兼具实用性与思想性”的特点,旨在引导考生关注社会现象。 3. 考点分布均衡,梯度设置合理 基础细节题(28、29题)与深层推理、主旨题(30、31题)搭配,难度由浅入深,既考查考生快速定位信息的能力,也检验对文本整体逻辑和主旨的把握。 命题规律 1. 细节题定位清晰,答案多为同义替换 细节题答案均可在原文找到明确依据,且常以同义替换形式呈现。如28题选项C“People walk less and drive more”对应原文“declines in pedestrian mobility... pack them into the car instead”;29题选项A“Keep their cities livable”对应原文“New York as a decent place to live”。 2. 推理题依托逻辑关联词,聚焦让步/转折关系 推理题多围绕文中的逻辑关联词设置,尤其是让步状语从句。如30题借助“Although”引导的让步逻辑,考查考生对“运动声势大但效果差”这一隐含信息的推断,符合高考“重逻辑推理”的命题趋势。 3. 主旨题关注首尾呼应,直击核心矛盾 主旨题答案与全文首尾内容紧密关联,核心是抓住文本批判的核心问题。如31题选项A“Why the Rush?”呼应原文“rush through”的表述,精准概括“城市过度追求通行效率而牺牲宜居性”的主旨。 解题思维 1. 细节题:定位+比对,排除无中生有项 解题步骤为“题干关键词定位原文→提取原文核心信息→将选项与原文信息比对”。优先排除原文未提及的选项,如28题的A(堵车)、B(事故频发)均属于无中生有。 2. 推理题:抓逻辑关联词,遵循“有据可推”原则 重点关注文中的让步、转折、因果等逻辑词,推理结论必须基于原文信息,不可过度延伸。如30题根据“Although”后的转折内容,推断出运动“基本无效”,避免主观认为“运动一定有效果”的误区。 3. 主旨题:梳理全文脉络,规避局部信息干扰 解题时需跳脱局部细节,梳理全文主线:首段提出“步行减少、开车增多”的现象→中间讲城市规划以汽车为中心的演变→尾段呼吁重新思考街道功能。主旨题选项需覆盖全文核心,排除仅概括某一段落的选项。 干扰项特征 1. 无中生有 干扰项内容在原文完全没有依据,属于命题人主观编造。如28题的A“Cars often get stuck on the road”、B“Traffic accidents occur frequently”,原文未提及堵车和事故相关内容。 2. 偷换概念 干扰项看似与原文相关,但偷换了核心词汇或概念范围。如29题的D“Make expressways accessible”,将原文“反对建高速公路破坏公园”偷换为“主张高速公路可达性”,完全偏离人物行为目的。 3. 过度推理 干扰项基于原文信息进行过度延伸,超出文本隐含范围。如30题的C“They won government support”,原文未提及政府态度,属于考生主观臆断。 4. 局部信息干扰 干扰项仅概括原文某一部分内容,无法涵盖全文主旨,常用于主旨题。如31题的C“Where to Stay?”,仅涉及“宜居”的局部话题,未触及“城市规划与通行效率”的核心矛盾。 1. 原句:While safety improvements might have been made to our streets in recent years, transport studies also show declines in pedestrian mobility, especially among young children. 结构:①让步状语从句While...;②主句transport studies show declines...;③状语especially among... 翻译:尽管近年街道安全有所改善,但交通研究显示行人出行量下降,儿童群体尤为明显。 考点:while引导让步状语从句,常考细节匹配与逻辑理解。 2. 原句:Although these campaigns were widespread, the reality is that the majority of the western cities were completely redesigned around the needs of the motor car. 结构:①让步状语从句Although...;②主句the reality is that...;③表语从句that the majority... 翻译:尽管这类运动声势浩大,但实际情况是大多数西方城市仍完全围绕汽车需求重新规划。 考点:让步状语从句+表语从句,高频用于推理判断题,核心抓“让步转折”后的现实结论。 1. pedestrian mobility 行人出行量;阅读高频搭配,例:declines in pedestrian mobility 2. pack into 塞进;原文“pack them into the car”,写作可用“pack the kids into the school bus” 3. make way for 为…让路;原文“destroyed to make way for new road networks”,例:old buildings pulled down to make way for a park 4. champion /ˈtʃæmpiən/ v. 倡导;原文“champion New York as a decent place”,写作可用“champion environmental protection” 5. around the needs of 围绕…的需求;原文“redesigned around the needs of the motor car”,例:curricula designed around students’ needs 6. account for 考虑到;原文“fail to account for the true costs”,例:we must account for long-term risks 综合实战演练 语篇 题型 体裁 内容简介 Passage1 阅读理解 说明文 说明了世界上每年都有语言消失,为此有人通过互联网技术来防止语言丧失 Passage2 阅读理解 说明文 主要讲的是研究表明大学可以通过支持大学生的福祉来改变他们的生活 Passage3 阅读理解 议论文 主要探讨AI诗歌在非专家评价中得分高于人类诗歌的现象及背后的争议 Passage4 阅读理解 议论文 主要论述了人们没有时间参与艺术这种现象以及艺术的重要性,艺术应该是一种生活中的必需品而不是奢侈品 Passage5 七选五 说明文 介绍徒步旅行作为一种古老而现代的锻炼方式,对身体和心理健康的益处,以及如何安全地进行徒步旅行 Passage6 七选五 议论文 论述怀旧的普遍现象、心理作用、对大脑的积极影响及平衡之道,指出其有助于应对当下与未来 Passage7 完形填空 记叙文 讲述了Lisa通过一次独自旅行突破自我,改变生活的故事,鼓励人们走出舒适区 Passage 1 (2025届山东省德州市高三下学期一模英语试题)Some of the world’s 7,000 languages disappear annually and many are endangered for not being spoken widely in formal settings like schools. A quiet fightback is under way in communities that feel their traditions are drowned out by the dominance of the most globally spoken languages. Tochi Precious, a Nigerian, says, “It pains me to see a language dying off, because it’s not just about the language, but about the history and culture associated with it.” It was the community aspect that brought her to join efforts to save Igbo, an endangered African language. Ensuring there’s a substantial record of words and meanings, and how it is written and used is key, according to campaigners like Precious, who aid others in their languages’ protection through the organisation Wikitongues. Amrit Sufi, an Indian speaking Angika, records videos and uploads them to preserve its oral culture via Wikitongues, too. “It’s urgent to document and make it accessible, not just stored in a library,” she says. “Oral culture is disappearing as new generations are more subject to consuming industry-produced music rather than sitting in groups and singing. They’re ashamed to speak it due to a perceived dishonor attached to it, seeing Angika beneath dominant languages.” Wikitongues focuses on helping document languages using collective resources such as dictionaries and alternative-language Wikipedia entries. Wikipedia is favoured by language activists as a way to upload media and build effective and affordable dictionaries. There are moves to use artificial intelligence to document languages by processing texts and feeding them into chatbots. Many activists create books, videos and recordings. Community radio stations also have a long record of providing services in local languages. Despite such preservation, activists then have to persuade people to use a language — a major challenge. “While Igbo is one of Nigeria’s largest languages, parents believe only English is useful for children’s future, insisting that if they don’t speak English, they appear ignorant and don’t belong,” Precious says. “But efforts to save it have worked — the language is flowering again.” 1. How do Precious and Sufi help prevent language loss? A. Through national programs. B. Through word of mouth. C. Through mass music formats. D. Through Internet technology. 2. What may be the reason for the downfall of Angika according to Sufi? A. Decline in population. B. Lack of job-market demands. C. Prejudice against Angika. D. Absence of formal education. 3. What is the toughest thing facing activists about an endangered language? A. Promoting its use. B. Building community cooperation. C. Obtaining financial support. D. Getting advanced recording devices. 4. What is Precious’ attitude towards the Igbo rescue move? A. Skeptical. B. Positive. C. Pessimistic. D. Uncaring. Passage 2 (2025届河南省创新发展联盟高三下学期一模英语试题)Historically, a university’s primary role has been to ensure students’ outstanding performance academically, but higher education can also change lives by supporting their well-being. Despite growing evidence of the importance of students’ well-being and an abundance of best practices, most institutions have yet to prioritize it as much as they do with enrollment(入学), graduation and grades. A new study led by University of Maine researchers provides guidance on how institutions can support and improve students’ well-being, and breaks down the various benefits for learners during and beyond their university career. The study defines well-being as a combined sense of belonging, agency, purpose, identity, citizen engagement and financial stability. Quoting a long-term investigation, researchers identified key student experiences that result in improved well-being later in life: working at a job or internship(实习); conducting a project that takes a semester or longer to complete; extensively participating in extracurricular(课外的) activities; having at least one professor who either personally cares about their students, and encourages them to pursue their goals or makes them excited to learn. “There is a growing recognition of the importance of affective student outcomes such as a sense of belonging and agency, as well as a wealth of evidence showing that student-centered practices can meaningfully support these. We hope that this will encourage other educators to consider how to support well-being in their own learning context,” said Holly White, lead researcher. Researchers identified six guiding principles for improving students’ well-being, among which are Research Learning Experiences (RLEs). According to researchers, RLEs encourage “partner relationships and a sense of belonging, as well as developing agency, purpose and identity through enriching research experiences.” “A unique feature of our RLEs is that they are open to all entering first-year students, no matter what prior experiences students may have had. Our early results on the positive impact of RLEs on students’ overall well-being are very encouraging.” said John Volin, study co-author. “I think it’s really important to recognize that we can support students’ well-being and learning. These two aspects are not contradictory or in a zero-sum situation. It also doesn’t have to be one or the other.” White said. 1. Which may fail to improve students’ well-being according to the text? A. Gaining an internship opportunity. B. Engaging in after-class activities widely. C. Carrying out a long-term project with others. D. Having a professor who is strict about their study. 2. What can we know about RLEs? A. They have been practiced in many universities. B. They are mainly targeted at students lacking in experience. C. They play a positive role in enhancing students’ well-being. D. They are the best method among the guiding principles identified. 3. What do White’s words in the last paragraph suggest? A. Student learning is more important than well-being. B. Universities should take students’ well-being more seriously. C. It is difficult to support students’ well-being in many universities. D. Universities can help with students’ well-being and studies at the same time. 4. What is the best title for the text? A. Research on Improving Students’ Well-Being B. Challenges in Supporting Students’ Well-Being C. The Role of Research Learning Experiences in Universities D. The Importance of Students’ Well-Being in Higher Education Passage 3 (24-25学年高二上·山东东营·期末)Poetry is maybe the most human of all human endeavors, which is thought least likely to be taken over by AI. But according to a recent study, this is not so, as non-experts rate AI poetry higher than poetry written by humans. The researchers chose 10 famous poets: Samuel Butler, Geoffrey Chaucer, William Shakespeare... They then asked ChatGTP 3.5 to write poems in the style of each poet. And they asked the participants, who were not experts, to rate the work on 14 scales, like profundity, rhythm, originality, imagery, beauty, emotion, and overall quality. What was surprising indeed is that most of these non-experts, when they were not told whether a poem was composed by AI or by a human systematically, ranked the ones that were actually written by AI higher than the ones written by humans. What does this experiment show exactly? The researchers are very clear that these findings were limited to non-experts. The research team’s own explanation has to do with participants’ lack of expertise, concluding that these non-experts preferred the AI poetry because it was less complicated, and more straightforward This must be part of the story, but it’s not the whole story. Take another deeply human endeavor, wine-tasting, as an example. It was first reported that non-experts are very bad at making the simplest distinctions about wine, but shortly afterwards it was found that experts make the same kind of mistakes and sometimes they in fact made more mistakes. Plus, it is usually tricky to do experiments on aesthetic (美学) appreciation. This experiment was about the participants’ self-report about their experiences and, as we know from literally thousands of studies, self-reports can be misleading in most contexts. So this experiment was not about the real aesthetic experience of poetry, which is what really maters. It was about what participants thought about their aesthetic experience. The study is important and creative. But it doesn’t show that promising poets should abandon their passion. Not yet, anyway. 1.What is the second paragraph mainly about? A.The process of the experiment. B.The principle of the experiment. C.The subject of the experiment. D.The result of the experiment. 2.Why does the author mention “wine-tasting” in paragraph 5? A.To compare poetry with wine. B.To show non-experts’ preferences. C.To prove the research findings. D.To argue against the team’s explanation. 3.What can be inferred about the non-experts according to the text? A.They showed good aesthetic appreciation skills. B.They had prior experience in evaluating poetic quality. C.They rated the poems based on their aesthetic experience. D.They were expert in distinguishing AI poetry from human poetry. 4.What is the author’s attitude towards the future of human poetry? A.Optimistic. B.Indifferent. C.Critical. D.Doubtful. Passage 4 (23-24学年高二上·山东威海·期末)According to Americans for the Arts, more than two-thirds of U.S. adults say that the arts “lift me up beyond everyday experiences.” Still, only 30 percent attended a concert of any type in 2017; 23 percent visited an art museum; six percent attended a literary event. Fewer than half actively created art of any kind. What has caused this phenomenon is that we do not have time for art — we are weighed down by our day-to-day responsibilities. Maybe you like to play a little background music while you work but most of us rarely, if ever, went to see a live performance, let alone visited a gallery. And reading poetry? Perhaps not since high school. Too often, we let the realities of life get in the way of the arts, which can feel insignificant by comparison. But this is a mistake. The arts might be the single most in-depth experience you will ever be given to explore the nature and meaning of life. And if you make time to consume and produce art, you will find your life become fuller and happier. Some philosophers address the problem of life consumed by work and material pursuits. They argue that art provides relief from this routine, expanding our perspective and bringing us closer to true reality.   Think of a time when you heard a piece of music and wanted to cry. Or recall your fast heartbeats as you stared at a delicate lifelike sculpture. Chances are that it probably stimulated (刺激) a sudden awakening, much like the shock from a lungful of pure oxygen after breathing in smoggy air. If you are among those who feel that art is “pure pleasure to experience and participate in,” you might see it the same way you see eating out, or skydiving: as a luxury (奢侈品) item in your limited budgets of time and money. As such, it probably gets the same sort of treatment as any minor hobby. Don’t make this error. Treat art more like exercise or sleep: a necessity for a life full of deep satisfaction. 1.What does paragraph 1 focus on? A.The opinion of U.S. adults about art. B.The types of art that U.S. adults engage with. C.The mismatch between value and behaviour as to art. D.The connection between everyday experiences and art. 2.What is a mistaken idea in the author’s opinion? A.Art reveals the nature of life. B.Art gives way to material pursuits. C.Life without art is meaningless. D.Background music is a kind of art. 3.What does the author want to convey in paragraph 5? A.Art awakes people’s talents. B.Art improves physical health. C.Art brings us closer to nature. D.Art makes life fuller and happier. 4.What might be the best title? A.Art: A Habit, Not a Luxury B.Art: A Bridge, Not a Barrier C.Art: A Decoration, Not a Reality D.Art: A Pleasure, Not a Burden Passage5 (2025届浙江省稽阳联谊学校高三4月联考英语试题) Hiking: A Timeless Exercise Gaining Modern Popularity Hiking, a form of exercise older than exercise itself, is so hot right now. From2018 to 2021, the number of Americans hitting the trails increased from around 48 million to 59 million. 1 Hiking offers all the cardiovascular (心血管) benefits of walking. 2 The uneven trails strengthen legs and muscles more effectively than walking on flat surfaces. This in turn improves balance and stability, making hiking a full-body workout. 3 . Spending time in nature and experiencing awe-inspiring landscapes can reduce stress and anxiety. A 2015 study found that people who walked in nature for 90 minutes were less likely to engage in depression — compared to those who walked in urban environments. However, hiking does carry some risks. To ensure a safe and enjoyable experience, it’s important to take a few simple precautions. If you’re a new hiker, go with a friend or join a local group. 4 Remember: The point is to be able to see the views and smell the flowers. In conclusion, hiking is more than just exercise. 5 By following basic safety guidelines, hikers can ensure they return home safe and ready for their next adventure. Whether you’re a seasoned hiker or a beginner, the trails offer something for everyone. A.Lace up your boots and start exploring. B.Hiking also promotes mental well-being. C.But its advantages go further than heart health. D.Push yourself harder and faster through challenging trails. E.It’s a well-rounded activity that benefits both the body and mind. F.Always inform someone of your plans and check in with them afterward. G.This growth reflects hiking's appeal as a way to stay active and connect with nature. Passage6 (2026届浙江省强基联盟高三上学期10月一模英语试题)Nostalgia — the warm feeling of longing for the past— is everywhere in today’s culture. Movies like Barbie, Indiana Jones, and Top Gun are drawing huge crowds by bringing back old favorites. 1 On the surface, nostalgia simply makes us feel good. 2 According to Professor Ziyan Yang from the Institute of Psychology, CAS, nostalgia creates feelings of warmth, belonging, and even a mental escape to the past. During tough times — whether personal struggles or global crises — nostalgia acts like an emotional safety net. Movies and music are powerful triggers because they recreate familiar emotions and experiences. 3 First, it gives us a sense of control. Even when life feels unpredictable, reflecting on our past helps us feel more grounded and secure. Second, nostalgia strengthens social bonds. Though it seems like a personal experience, nostalgic memories often remind us of family, friends, and shared moments. What does nostalgia do to our brains? Mostly good things! Studies show it boosts happiness, creativity, and energy by activating positive emotions. 4 This youthful optimism encourages us to take risks and chase our goals. Some researchers suggest nostalgia acts like a “psychological immune system”, helping us cope with stress. But can too much nostalgia be harmful? In small amounts, it’s healthy. However, if we think about the past too much, it can keep us from moving forward. The key is balance — enjoying memories without losing sight of the present. 5 It helps us reconnect with our true selves and remember who we really are. In short, nostalgia isn’t just about reliving the past — it’s a tool that helps us navigate the present and future with hope. A.But why do we love nostalgia so much? B.This is why reunions feel so meaningful to us. C.Nostalgia also serves key psychological needs. D.However, psychology experts say there’s more to it. E.It can even make us feel younger and more optimistic. F.Remembering happy memories brings comfort and joy. G.Still, in general, nostalgia is a natural and positive part of life.
