Passage2阅读理解
My hands were shaking uncontrollably. I tried incredibly hard to focus on the words that I spent hours putting down on paper. I tried to defeat my fear of speaking in public on numerous occasions throughout my life. During college and at my first few jobs, I would get ridiculously nervous when I had to give a presentation or lead a meeting. Public speaking had been my nemesis for as long as I could remember.
Then in my mid-thirties, I decided to join the public speaking group Toastmasters. At every meeting, we were rated and forced to compete with other speakers for an award. You would think that I would walk away from these experiences as a polished speaker, but nothing seemed to work.
It wasn’t until recently, when science and scientific institutions were being attacked for unfair reasons during the pandemic, that I decided I must speak out. Science has made this country a place where dreams come true — this is why we all need to protect science. In addition, as a science writer, I try to get readers to understand how science is related to their daily lives.
So I ended up on that frightening stage on that sunny Saturday in April — Earth Day. Despite the body shakes and fear, I persevered. That day, I looked out into the crowd of like-minded science supporters and I felt comfort.
Reaching that milestone goal of getting through a speech truly changed me. At almost forty, I learned that passion can set off a flame in my heart to do things I never dreamed possible. The darkness that led to my speech is sure to lead to new opportunities and adventures.
5.Which can replace the underlined word “nemesis” in Para. 1?
A.Advantage. B.Annoyance. C.Preference. D.Confusion.
6.How did the author behave towards public speaking after leaving Toastmasters?
A.He remained a shy speaker. B.He became a polished speaker.
C.He began to feel less worried. D.He found things getting worse.
7.What made the author want to speak out on Earth Day?
A.He must rise up to defend his job.
B.It was a good chance to learn science.
C.It was a test organized by Toastmasters.
D.He couldn’t bear people attacking science.
8.What lesson did the author draw from his successful speech?
A.Frustration can be stepping stones to success.
B.Science can lead us to make wonderful changes.
C.Enthusiasm can motivate us to achieve the unachievable.
D.Any difficulty can be overcome with great efforts.

A Beginner’s Guide to Rehearse (排练) Presentations
Delivering presentations is an everyday art form that anyone can master. Act as if you are in a conversation with your audience, and they will pay attention to you. 1 Here are some tips to help you practice with efficiency.
Don’t wait until it’s perfect.
Find a friend, colleague, or mentor who you trust to give you constructive feedback. 2 That way, they can give you tips not just on your delivery, but on the organization of your content as well. You can start by asking them to point out moments that are dull or confusing.
Prepare for nerves.
What exactly worries you when you give a speech? Looking foolish? Forgetting lines? 3 For instance, if your fear is, “I’ll forget what I’m saying,” you can prepare a plan like, “If it really happens, I’ll pause, scan my notes, and find the next important point I need to make.”
Time yourself carefully.
You don’t want to go over your time frame and get cut off, or wear on the patience of your audience. Time your rehearsals, especially those you give in front of others, to see that you are staying within the time you have. 4
Practice repeatedly with flexibility.
5 This doesn’t mean sticking to a strict script every time. Instead, when you rehearse, improvise freely. Deliver your main points, but include quips (俏皮话) and anecdotes that occur to you as you go. You’ll remember the best ones when you actually deliver the presentation.
A.To get this level of fluency, practice is the key.
B.Know your presentation backward and forward.
C.You don’t have to wait until it’s perfect to show them.
D.These thoughts are the ones that are holding you back on stage.
E.Rely on memorising every word of your speech exactly as written.
F.Set aside some extra time if you plan to answer questions from the audience.
G.Write down your fears, and then think about what you will do in each situation.

阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。(2026·福建省厦门双十中学高三上学期开学)
I can well remember that I was once asked to deliver a speech titled A Real Test in My Life before the whole class at the age of 9! You can imagine how 1 (terrible) shy I was the moment I thought of that — with so many eyes 2 (fix) upon me. I had no choice but 3 (prepare) for it, though. First of all, I was to draft the speech, 4 was just a piece of cake for me, a good writer. But the hardest part 5 (lie) in my oral presentation from my memory, for to read from the paper was not allowed. The real moment began when I stood on the platform with my legs 6 (tremble) and my mind blank. But my listeners were waiting patiently without any signs of rushing me. Gradually I found 7 (I) back, giving out my speech without difficulty. After 8 seemed to be a hundred years, I found my audience applauding — I made it! From then on, my fear of talking before a big audience disappeared. Actually with my 9 (confident) building up, I now turn out to be a great speaker. Looking back, I know the greatest difficulty on our way to success is our fear. Overcome it, 10 we will be able to achieve our goals.

Passage1阅读理解
A heartwarming kindergarten graduation ceremony left the audience teary-eyed as six-year-old Jaxon Carter spoke words that touched the heart.
Jaxon’s life suddenly changed when his mother Taryn Marie Gainey, died in a terrible apartment fire in 2022. Though this dark incident cast a shadow, Jaxon accepted his new reality. Only two months following the accident, he began a new life in a public kindergarten.
Jaxon shared that “Everything was new — life had taken strange turn, the school was new, there were new faces, new rules, and new concepts to take on.” Despite these odds, Jaxon didn’t give up. As his time at New Dawn Academy came to an end, he was chosen to deliver a speech at the kindergarten graduation ceremony.
Justin Carter, Jaxon’s father, revealed that his son worked hard on his speech. With his grandmothe’s assistance, his short address turned into a powerful farewell (告别) speech.
Jaxon began his speech, saying, “When I started kindergarten in August 2022, I was a little five-year-old who had lost my beautiful mother a month before.” He expressed deep gratitude towards his father, his teacher and his grandparents for their support during his journey.
Jaxon continued, “I dedicate (献给) my speech, good grades, all school awards, and my kindergarten graduation to my beautiful mom, who I will always love and miss so much. I know she will always be with me in my heart.”
Jaxon’s heartfelt dedication was met with loud applause, reflecting the audience’s admiration for his courage and determination. His speech left a lasting impression on everyone present, reminding them of his strength and lasting love for his mother.
1.What happened to Jaxon Carter in 2022?
A.He graduated from kindergarten. B.His mother died in a terrible fire.
C.He made a speech to the public. D.His family moved to a new city.
2.When was Jaxon Carter born?
A.In 2019. B.In 2018. C.In 2017. D.In 2016.
3.What did the audience think about Jaxon’s speech?
A.Touching. B.Relaxing. C.Disappointing. D.Heartbreaking.
4.What is a suitable title for the text?
A.A Terrible Accident Happened in a Public Kindergarten
B.A Graduation Ceremony Was Held in the Kindergarten
C.A Kindergartener Overcame a Lot of Difficulties Alone
D.A boy Dedicated Graduation Speech to His Late Mother
【答案】1.B 2.C 3.A 4.D
【解析】这是一篇记叙文,文章通过讲述Jaxon在幼儿园毕业典礼上发表演讲、致敬已故母亲的经历,传递勇气与爱的主题。
1.细节理解题。根据第二段中“Jaxon’s life suddenly changed when his mother Taryn Marie Gainey, died in a terrible apartment fire in 2022.(当Jaxon的母亲Taryn Marie Gainey在2022年的一场可怕的公寓大火中丧生时,他的生活突然发生了变化)”可知,2022年Jaxon的母亲“在火灾中去世”;“He graduated from kindergarten(他从幼儿园毕业)”发生在之后,“He made a speech to the public(他向公众发表演讲)”是毕业时的行为,“His family moved to a new city(他的家庭搬去一个新城市)”未提及,故选B。
2.细节理解题。根据第五段中“When I started kindergarten in August 2022, I was a little five-year-old who had lost my beautiful mother a month before.(当我在2022年8月开始上幼儿园的时候,我只有5岁,一个月前我失去了我美丽的母亲)”可知,2022年8月Jaxon上幼儿园时5岁,通过计算2022 - 5 = 2017,可知其出生于2017年,排除2019年(2022年3岁)、2018年(2022年4岁)、2016年(2022年6岁),故选C。
3.推理判断题。第一段“A heartwarming kindergarten graduation ceremony left the audience teary-eyed as six-year-old Jaxon Carer spoke words that touched the heart.(在一场温馨的幼儿园毕业典礼上,6岁的Jaxon Carer说了几句触动人心的话,让台下的观众热泪盈眶)”提到一场温馨的幼儿园毕业典礼,最后一段“Jaxon’s heartfelt dedication was met with loud applause(Jaxon衷心的奉献得到了热烈的掌声)”“His speech left a lasting impression on everyone present(他的演讲给在场的每个人都留下了深刻的印象)”中“heartwarming(暖心的)”和“loud applause(热烈的掌声)”均表明观众认为演讲很感人;“Relaxing(放松的)”“Disappointing(令人失望的)”与语境不符,“Heartbreaking(令人心碎的)”侧重悲伤,而演讲核心是“爱与勇气”,故选A。

Passage2阅读理解
My hands were shaking uncontrollably. I tried incredibly hard to focus on the words that I spent hours putting down on paper. I tried to defeat my fear of speaking in public on numerous occasions throughout my life. During college and at my first few jobs, I would get ridiculously nervous when I had to give a presentation or lead a meeting. Public speaking had been my nemesis for as long as I could remember.
Then in my mid-thirties, I decided to join the public speaking group Toastmasters. At every meeting, we were rated and forced to compete with other speakers for an award. You would think that I would walk away from these experiences as a polished speaker, but nothing seemed to work.
It wasn’t until recently, when science and scientific institutions were being attacked for unfair reasons during the pandemic, that I decided I must speak out. Science has made this country a place where dreams come true — this is why we all need to protect science. In addition, as a science writer, I try to get readers to understand how science is related to their daily lives.
So I ended up on that frightening stage on that sunny Saturday in April — Earth Day. Despite the body shakes and fear, I persevered. That day, I looked out into the crowd of like-minded science supporters and I felt comfort.
Reaching that milestone goal of getting through a speech truly changed me. At almost forty, I learned that passion can set off a flame in my heart to do things I never dreamed possible. The darkness that led to my speech is sure to lead to new opportunities and adventures.
5.Which can replace the underlined word “nemesis” in Para. 1?
A.Advantage. B.Annoyance. C.Preference. D.Confusion.
6.How did the author behave towards public speaking after leaving Toastmasters?
A.He remained a shy speaker. B.He became a polished speaker.
C.He began to feel less worried. D.He found things getting worse.
7.What made the author want to speak out on Earth Day?
A.He must rise up to defend his job.
B.It was a good chance to learn science.
C.It was a test organized by Toastmasters.
D.He couldn’t bear people attacking science.
8.What lesson did the author draw from his successful speech?
A.Frustration can be stepping stones to success.
B.Science can lead us to make wonderful changes.
C.Enthusiasm can motivate us to achieve the unachievable.
D.Any difficulty can be overcome with great efforts.
【答案】5.B 6.A 7.D 8.C
【解析】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者长期受公众演讲恐惧困扰,后因疫情中科学遭攻击决心发声,最终成功演讲并获得成长的故事。
5.词句猜测题。根据第一段中的“I tried to defeat my fear of speaking in public on numerous occasions throughout my life. During college and at my first few jobs, I would get ridiculously nervous when I had to give a presentation or lead a meeting. Public speaking had been my nemesis for as long as I could remember.(我一生中曾多次试图克服公开演讲的恐惧。在大学和刚开始工作的那几年,每当我要做演示或主持会议时,我都会变得异常紧张。从我记事起,公开演讲就一直是我的克星)”可知,作者多次尝试克服公开演讲的恐惧,做演示或主持会议时会异常紧张,说明公开演讲是让他困扰的事物。“nemesis”在此处意为“令人困扰的事物”,与“Annoyance(烦心事,困扰)”意思相近。故选B项。
6.推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Then in my mid-thirties, I decided to join the public speaking group Toastmasters. At every meeting, we were rated and forced to compete with other speakers for an award. You would think that I would walk away from these experiences as a polished speaker, but nothing seemed to work.(然后在我 35 岁左右时,我决定加入一个名为Toastmasters的公开演讲社团。每次会议上,我们都会接受评分,还必须和其他演讲者竞争奖项。你可能会觉得,经历过这些之后,我应该能成为一名娴熟的演讲者,但似乎毫无效果)”可知,作者加入Toastmasters后,并未成为娴熟的演讲者,结合前文他对公开演讲的恐惧,可推断离开该社团后,他在公开演讲方面依然胆怯。故选A项。
7.细节理解题。根据第三段中的“It wasn’t until recently, when science and scientific institutions were being attacked for unfair reasons during the pandemic, that I decided I must speak out.(直到最近,在疫情期间,科学和科研机构因不公正的原因受到攻击,我才决定必须站出来发声)”可知,作者在地球日想要发声,是因为无法忍受人们对科学的攻击。故选D项。
8.细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“At almost forty, I learned that passion can set off a flame in my heart to do things I never dreamed possible.(在将近40岁的时候,我明白了热情能在我心中燃起火焰,让我去做那些我从未想过可能做到的事情)”可知,作者从这次成功的演讲中领悟到,热情可以激励人们去实现原本认为无法做到的事情。故选C项。

A Beginner’s Guide to Rehearse (排练) Presentations
Delivering presentations is an everyday art form that anyone can master. Act as if you are in a conversation with your audience, and they will pay attention to you. 1 Here are some tips to help you practice with efficiency.
Don’t wait until it’s perfect.
Find a friend, colleague, or mentor who you trust to give you constructive feedback. 2 That way, they can give you tips not just on your delivery, but on the organization of your content as well. You can start by asking them to point out moments that are dull or confusing.
Prepare for nerves.
What exactly worries you when you give a speech? Looking foolish? Forgetting lines? 3 For instance, if your fear is, “I’ll forget what I’m saying,” you can prepare a plan like, “If it really happens, I’ll pause, scan my notes, and find the next important point I need to make.”
Time yourself carefully.
You don’t want to go over your time frame and get cut off, or wear on the patience of your audience. Time your rehearsals, especially those you give in front of others, to see that you are staying within the time you have. 4
Practice repeatedly with flexibility.
5 This doesn’t mean sticking to a strict script every time. Instead, when you rehearse, improvise freely. Deliver your main points, but include quips (俏皮话) and anecdotes that occur to you as you go. You’ll remember the best ones when you actually deliver the presentation.
A.To get this level of fluency, practice is the key.
B.Know your presentation backward and forward.
C.You don’t have to wait until it’s perfect to show them.
D.These thoughts are the ones that are holding you back on stage.
E.Rely on memorising every word of your speech exactly as written.
F.Set aside some extra time if you plan to answer questions from the audience.
G.Write down your fears, and then think about what you will do in each situation.
【答案】1.A 2.C 3.G 4.F 5.B
【解析】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍演讲是可掌握的日常艺术形式,并给出高效排练演讲的几条实用建议,帮助提升演讲效果。

2.根据上文“Find a friend, colleague, or mentor who you trust to give you constructive feedback.(找一个你信任的朋友、同事或导师,让他们给你建设性的反馈)”以及下文“That way, they can give you tips not just on your delivery, but on the organization of your content as well.(这样一来,他们不仅能给你关于演讲表达的建议,还能给你关于内容组织的建议)”可知,此处应体现“不必等到排练完美再寻求反馈”,才能让对方全面给出建议。C选项“You don’t have to wait until it’s perfect to show them.(你不必等到完美了再展示给他们看)”衔接上文“找信任的人给反馈”,引出下文“全面提建议”的结果,符合语境。故选C项。
3.根据上文“What exactly worries you when you give a speech? Looking foolish? Forgetting lines?(演讲时你具体担心什么?出洋相?忘词?)”以及下文“For instance, if your fear is, “I’ll forget what I’m saying,” you can prepare a plan like, “If it really happens, I’ll pause, scan my notes, and find the next important point I need to make.”(例如,如果你担心的是 “我会忘记自己要说什么”,你可以准备一个应对方案:“如果真的发生这种情况,我就停下来,快速看一下笔记,找到我接下来要讲的重点。”)”可知,此处应衔接上文的“恐惧/担忧”,引出“应对恐惧的方法”。G选项“Write down your fears, and then think about what you will do in each situation.(写下你的恐惧,然后思考在每种情况下你会做什么)”中的fears”呼应上文的worries,what you will do in each situation引出下文的具体例子,符合语境。故选G项。
4.根据上文“You don’t want to go over your time frame and get cut off, or wear on the patience of your audience. Time your rehearsals, especially those you give in front of others, to see that you are staying within the time you have.(你不想超时被打断,或者耗尽观众的耐心。给你的排练计时,尤其是在别人面前的排练,确保你在规定的时间内完成)”可知,此处应补充“计时”相关的细节,贴合“控制演讲时间”的核心。F选项“Set aside some extra time if you plan to answer questions from the audience.(如果你计划回答观众的问题,要预留一些额外的时间)”是对“控制时间”的补充说明,考虑到问答环节的时间分配,符合语境。故选F项。
5.根据上文“Practice repeatedly with flexibility.(灵活地反复练习)”以及下文“This doesn’t mean sticking to a strict script every time. Instead, when you rehearse, improvise freely.(这并不意味着每次都要严格遵循脚本。相反,当你排练时,可以自由即兴发挥)”可知,此处应体现“反复练习”的前提是“熟练掌握演讲内容”,才能实现灵活即兴。B选项“Know your presentation backward and forward.(把你的演讲内容背得滚瓜烂熟)”呼应上文“反复练习”,backward and forward为下文“自由即兴发挥”奠定基础,符合语境。故选B项。

Passage 5 语法填空
阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。(2026·福建省厦门双十中学高三上学期开学)
I can well remember that I was once asked to deliver a speech titled A Real Test in My Life before the whole class at the age of 9! You can imagine how 1 (terrible) shy I was the moment I thought of that — with so many eyes 2 (fix) upon me. I had no choice but 3 (prepare) for it, though. First of all, I was to draft the speech, 4 was just a piece of cake for me, a good writer. But the hardest part 5 (lie) in my oral presentation from my memory, for to read from the paper was not allowed. The real moment began when I stood on the platform with my legs 6 (tremble) and my mind blank. But my listeners were waiting patiently without any signs of rushing me. Gradually I found 7 (I) back, giving out my speech without difficulty. After 8 seemed to be a hundred years, I found my audience applauding — I made it! From then on, my fear of talking before a big audience disappeared. Actually with my 9 (confident) building up, I now turn out to be a great speaker. Looking back, I know the greatest difficulty on our way to success is our fear. Overcome it, 10 we will be able to achieve our goals.
【答案】
1.terribly 2.fixed 3.to prepare 4.which 5.lay 6.trembling 7.myself 8.what 9.confidence 10.and
【解析】这是一篇记叙文。本文讲述了作者9岁时在全班同学面前演讲的经历。作者起初极度害羞,但经过准备,尽管演讲时紧张,最终成功完成演讲,克服了在众人面前讲话的恐惧,从而领悟到成功路上最大的困难是恐惧,克服它就能实现目标。
1.考查副词。句意:你能想象当我一想到这件事的时候我有多害羞——这么多眼睛都盯着我。此处修饰形容词shy,应用副词形式,terrible的副词为terribly,意为“非常,极其”。故填terribly。
2.考查非谓语动词。句意:你能想象当我一想到这件事的时候我有多害羞——这么多眼睛都盯着我。此处为with复合结构,即“with +宾语+宾语补足语”,eyes与fix之间是被动关系,所以用过去分词fixed作宾语补足语。故填fixed。
3.考查固定搭配。句意:不过,我别无选择,只能为它做准备。“have no choice but to do sth.”是固定搭配,意为“除了做某事别无选择”,所以此处填to prepare。故填to prepare。
4.考查非限制性定语从句。句意:首先,我要起草演讲稿,这对我这个优秀的作家来说简直是小菜一碟。此处为非限制性定语从句,先行词为“to draft the speech”,指物,在从句中作主语,所以用关系代词which引导。故填which。
5.考查动词时态。句意:但最困难的部分在于凭记忆进行口头陈述,因为不允许照着稿子读。根据语境以及上下文的时态可知,此处描述过去发生的事情,应用一般过去时,lie(在于)的过去式为lay。故填lay。
6.考查非谓语动词。句意:当我站在讲台上,双腿颤抖,大脑一片空白时,真正的时刻开始了。此处为with复合结构,legs与tremble之间是主动关系,所以用现在分词trembling作宾语补足语。故填trembling。
7.考查反身代词。句意:渐渐地,我找回了自我,顺利地发表了演讲。find oneself表示“发觉自己的处境、状态等”,这里指作者逐渐找回状态,所以用反身代词myself。故填myself。
8.考查宾语从句。句意:似乎过了一百年之后,我发现听众在鼓掌——我成功了!after后接宾语从句,从句中缺少主语,指物,所以用what引导,what在从句中作主语,意为“……的事情”。故填what。
9.考查名词。句意:事实上,随着我的信心增强,我现在成了一名出色的演讲者。根据形容词性物主代词my可知,此处应填名词,confident的名词形式为confidence,意为“信心”,不可数,作宾语。故填confidence。
10.考查固定句型。句意:克服它,我们就能实现我们的目标。“祈使句+and+陈述句”是一个常用句型,其中祈使句表示条件,and后的陈述句表示结果,相当于if引导的条件状语从句。这里“Overcome it”表示条件,“we will be able to achieve our goals”表示结果,所以用and连接。故填and。
