[素能提升练] Ⅰ.阅读理解(每小题2.5分，共20分) A (2025·河南省濮阳市高二上学期期末) If you hear someone say that there's “an elephant in the room”，there's no need to be worried.This is an idiom that means there's a big，clear problem or difficult situation that people don't want to talk about.It's almost as if there's an elephant standing in the corner，but everyone is pretending it's not there! So you might understand why “The Elephant in the Room” is the name Dutch artist Johannes-Harm Hovinga gave to his new project. For 20 days during June and July，2024，Hovinga sat in a museum in the Dutch city of Arnhem and used a tool to make holes in the 7，700-page United Nations report on climate change. This was an artistic protest.He wanted to draw attention to climate change and to show that the world's governments aren't doing enough to try to save the planet.“Climate change is the elephant in the room，”Hovinga was saying through his art—the big，clear problem that we're not doing enough about. He had printed the pages of the report on different colored paper so that when he made the holes，there were large piles of colorful circles next to the table where he sat.People were able to watch Hovinga making his holes between June 22 and July 14，and see those piles getting bigger.Some visitors were touched as they watched，the museum said. Each day，Hovinga sat for six hours making holes，only drinking water and taking short breaks to use the bathroom.He said he began taking painkillers after two days because of the pain in his back，neck，and arms.The project ended on July 25 when Hovinga returned to take the paper piles away.But he has more hole-making projects planned for the future. 语篇解读　本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要报道了荷兰艺术家Johannes-Harm Hovinga通过一项特殊的艺术行为——在联合国气候变化报告的每页上打孔，来抗议全球气候变化问题，并指出这是一个被忽视但明显存在的重大问题。 1．Why is the idiom mentioned in the first paragraph? A．To lead in the name of a project. B．To describe an interesting scene. C．To explain a common language usage.

A．Odd but flexible. B．Humorous and energetic. C．Picky but productive. D．Creative and responsible. 答案：D 解析：推理判断题。根据文章第二段内容可知，Hovinga通过在联合国气候变化报告上打孔这一独特的艺术形式来表达对气候变化问题的关注，这种方式新颖且富有创意，展现了他的创造力；再根据文章第三段“This was an artistic protest.He wanted to draw attention to climate change and to show that the world's governments aren't doing enough to try to save the planet.”可知，Hovinga意识到气候变化这一全球性问题，并通过自己的行动，试图引起人们对该问题的重视，促使各国政府采取更多行动来拯救地球，体现了他对地球环境的责任感。故选D。 4．What can be learned from the last two paragraphs? A．Hovinga had great fun doing his work. B．Hovinga wants more people to join him. C．Hovinga will continue with similar projects.

This year，we're facing a different concept.Let's call it “sogflation”. If heatflation refers to price increases as a result of extremely high temperatures，sogflation is born out of extreme precipitation. A report published in April showed that while Europe experienced the highest number of days with extreme heat stress，it was also one of the wettest periods on record for many places. Potatoes are at the forefront of sogflation.With just one planting and one harvest per year，the conditions have to be just right.But last autumn poor weather conditions forced harvesting to stop in Europe after just three weeks，as wet soil meant farmers couldn't get crops out of the ground. Europeans eat among the highest quantity of potatoes per person of any region in the world—about 90 kilograms on average a year.English white potato prices are up 81% year-over-year，an all-time high.In Europe，the Netherlands and Belgium—two key regions that grow processing potatoes for fries—were the worst affected，with Dutch processing potato prices at their highest level recorded for US $397 per metric ton. It's not just vegetables and grains affected by the wet weather.Livestock (家畜) farmers have seen high death rates in lambs，while dairy cows in affected areas are unable to be turned out on grass，reducing milk yields and raising production costs.Food production has always been at the mercy of the elements.But Harry Campbell，a market analyst，said that，as consecutive (连续的) years of bad weather pile up，it's increasingly hard to recover from a poor season. Supply chains will need to be more flexible and ultimately more complex，to keep food supplies secure at a time when one supplier could be facing floods and another serious drought. 语篇解读　本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了极端天气对农作物价格及供应链的影响。 5．What led to “sogflation”？ A．Intense heat. B．Serious drought. C．Heavy rainfall. D．Severe insect damage. 答案：C 解析：细节理解题。根据第二段“This year，we're facing a different concept.Let's call it ‘sogflation’. If heatflation refers to price increases as a result of extremely high temperatures，sogflation is born out of extreme precipitation.”可知，sogflation是由于强降雨造成的。故选C。 6．What was the impact of bad weather on potatoes in Europe? A．Increased death rate. B．Delayed new planting. C．Shorter growth cycle. D．Shorter harvesting period. 答案：D 解析：细节理解题。根据第四段“But last autumn poor weather conditions forced harvesting to stop in Europe after just three weeks，as wet soil meant farmers couldn't get crops out of the ground.”可知，糟糕的天气缩短了欧洲土豆的收获期。故选D。 7．How will consecutive bad weather influence the food supply? A．It will lead to an increase in the variety of crops. B．It will force Europe to rely more on food imports. C．It will require simpler and more flexible supply chains. D．It will be harder for crops and related industries to recover. 答案：D 解析：细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“But Harry Campbell，a market analyst，said that，as consecutive (连续的) years of bad weather pile up，it's increasingly hard to recover from a poor season.”可知，连续恶劣天气对食品供应的影响在于使农作物和相关产业恢复困难。故选D。 8．What might be a suitable title for the passage? A．From Drought to Flood B．Food Shortage on the Way C．Saying Goodbye to Cheap Chips D．Extreme Weather and Rising Prices 答案：D 解析：标题归纳题。根据第二段以及通读全文可知，文章主要介绍了极端天气对农作物价格及供应链的影响。由此可知，D选项“极端天气和价格上涨”最适合作文章标题。故选D。 Ⅱ.阅读七选五(每小题2.5分，共12.5分) (2025·安徽合肥八中高二年级期末检测) How to Do Things You Don't Like We all have to get through things we don't like in life，be it small or big，perhaps having to go through a tough set of exams，a driving test or a holiday with someone you really don't like.In many cases，there's little we can do to change outside factors. 1 ． Be aware of the task.Often，what we think is challenging turns out not to be such a big deal.Write down what it is you have to do，ask people who've gone through it before and evaluate how bad it truly is. Prepare yourself in advance.Once you've identified what it is you have to do，plan ahead and get ready. 2 ．If it's for going on a terrifying trip，find things which can make it more enjoyable. 3 ．We all have to go through hard times in life，but often our greatest joys come as a consequence of our worst pain.Visualize the achievement you will make once you've finished the task，think about what you're going to do afterward，and use this as a stimulus to keep on going. Don't be too harsh (严厉的) on yourself. Don't be too hard on the way you're coping with the task. 4 ．We're only human after all.Of course，try to see where you can improve，but overly high standards are just ineffective. Reward yourself. Give yourself treats where you can. 5 ，and do something you enjoy.Perhaps you can avoid doing certain things you love in your everyday life and save them for such moments. A．See the goal B．See the bigger picture C．If it's for public exams，write yourself a timetable D．If you're trying your best，leave out small mistakes E．You should feel worse about anything that goes wrong F．However，we can certainly get through them all in a less stressful way G．You can buy the snack you have once in a while，watch a funny film 语篇解读　本文是一篇说明文。文章主要就如何去做不喜欢的事情给出了一些建议。 1．答案：F 解析：根据上文“We all have to get through things we don't like...little we can do to change outside factors.”以及下文介绍的一些减少困难事情的方式可知，空处指出可以从另外角度应对压力。故F选项“然而，我们当然可以用一种压力较小的方式来完成它们”符合语境，故选F。 2．答案：C 解析：根据上文“Prepare yourself in advance.Once you've identified what it is you have to do，plan ahead and get ready.”以及下文“If it's for going on a terrifying trip，find things which can make it more enjoyable.”可知，上文建议提前计划做好准备，本句与下文并列，都是针对生活中需要应对的情景进行做计划的建议。故C选项“如果是为了公共考试，给自己写一个时间表”符合语境，故选C。 3．答案：A 解析：空处为本段主旨句。根据本段内容“We all have to go through...and use this as a stimulus to keep on going.”可知，下文提到“想想之后你要做什么，并以此作为继续前进的动力”，即看到将来更大的目标，作为前进的动力。故A选项“看目标”符合语境，故选A。 4．答案：D 解析：根据上文“Don't be too hard on the way you're coping with the task.”以及下文“We're only human after all.Of course，try to see where you can improve，but overly high standards are just ineffective.”可知，上文提到不要对自己太苛刻，下文提到过高的标准只是无效的，说明尽力就好，允许自己犯错。故D选项“如果你已经尽了最大的努力，就不要在意犯小错误”符合语境，故选D。 5．答案：G 解析：根据上文“Reward yourself.Give yourself treats where you can.”以及下文“and do something you enjoy”可知，本段的主旨是奖励自己，故本句具体说明有哪些奖励自己的方式。故G选项“你可以偶尔买点零食，看部有趣的电影”符合语境，故选G。 学生用书第55页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
