六、阅读理解
(上海市普陀区宜川中学2023-2024学年高一下学期英语期中考试)Attachment Parenting is not Indulgent (纵容) Parenting. Attachment parents do not “spoil” their children. Spoiling is done when a child is given everything that they want regardless of what they need and what is practical. Indulgent parents give toys for tantrums (发脾气), ice cream for breakfast. Attachment parents don’t give their children everything they want, they give their children everything that they need. Attachment parents believe that love and comfort are free and necessary. Not sweets or toys.
Attachment Parenting is not “afraid of tears” parenting. Our kids cry and have tantrums sometimes, of course. But they do this because their emotions are so strong that they need to get them out. They simply expect us to listen to them. We pick up our babies when they cry, and we respond to the tears of our older children because we believe firmly that comfort is free, love is free, and that when a child is in need of comfort and love, it is our job to provide these things.
Attachment Parenting is not Clingy Parenting. I do not cling (抓紧) to my children. In fact, I’m pretty free-range. As soon as they can move, they usually move away from me. Sure, I carry them and hug them and chase them and kiss them and rock them and sleep with them. But this is not me following them everywhere and pulling them back to me. This is me being a home base.
Attachment Parenting is not Helicopter Parenting. I don’t hover. I supervise (监督). I follow, I teach, I demonstrate, I explain. I don’t slap (拍,打) curious hands away. I show how to do things safely. I let my child do what he wishes to do, first with help and then with supervision and finally with trust. I don’t insist that my 23-month-old hold my hand when we walk on the sidewalk because I know that I can recall him with my voice because he trusts me to allow him to explore and he trusts me to explain when something is dangerous and to help him satisfy his curiosities safely.
Most of the negative things that I hear about “Attachment Parents” are completely off-base and describe something that is entirely unlike Attachment-Parenting. Attachment Parenting is child-centered and focuses on the needs of the child. Attachment Parents simply believe that children are taught, not trained.
1.According to the author, what should parents do when their kids cry?
A.Reward them with toys. B.Try to stop them crying.
C.Provide comfort and love to them. D.Hold them tight in their arms.
2.What does “free-range” (in Para.3) refer to according to the passage?
A.The author’s providing of a home base.
B.The author’s readiness to play games with their kids.
C.The author’s being curious about watching the games they play.
D.The author’s willingness to give their kids freedom of movement.
3.Which of the following is NOT Attachment Parenting?
A.Encouraging your child’s curiosity. B.Always standing by to protect your child.
C.Helping your child to do the right thing. D.Showing your child how things are done.
4.What does the passage mainly discuss?
A.A certain type of parenting B.Parent-child relationships.
C.How to bring out love in children. D.How to build children’s self-confidence.
七、六选四
(23-24高一下·上海建平中学·期末)Power Causes Brain Damage
If power were a drug, it would come with a long list of known side effects. It can intoxicate. It can corrupt. It can even cause brain damage.
Dacher Keltner, a psychology professor at UC Berkeley, found in studies spanning two decades that subjects under the influence of power acted as if they had suffered a brain injury: 1
Sukhvinder Obhi, a neuroscientist at McMaster University, recently described something similar. 2 And when he put the heads of the powerful and the not-so-powerful under a transcranial-magnetic-stimulation machine, he found that power, in fact, damages a specific neural (神经系统的) process, “mirroring,” that may be an important part of empathy. This gives a neurological basis to what Keltner has termed the “power paradox”: Once we have power, we lose some of the capacities we needed to gain it in the first place.
3 A 2006 study asked participants to draw the letter E on their forehead for others to view — a task that requires seeing yourself from an observer’s vantage point. Those feeling powerful were three times more likely to draw the E the right way to themselves — and backwards to everyone else. (This calls to mind George W. Bush, who memorably held up the American flag backwards at the 2008 Olympics.) Other experiments have shown that powerful people do worse at identifying what someone in a picture is feeling, or guessing how a colleague might interpret a remark.
People tend to mimic the expressions and body language of their superiors, but the powerful stop mimicking others. 4 It helps trigger the same feelings those others are experiencing and provides a window into where they are coming from. Powerful people “stop simulating the experience of others,” Keltner says, which leads to what he calls an “empathy deficit.”
This is a depressing finding, but is there nothing to be done?
No and yes. It’s difficult to stop power’s tendency to affect your brain. What’s easier — from time to time, at least — is to stop feeling powerful. Power is not a post or a position but a mental state. Recount a time you did not feel powerful, Keltner suggests, and your brain can empathize with reality.
A.Unlike Keltner, who studies behaviors, Obhi studies brains.
B.It’s what Obhi and his team were trying to activate when they had their subjects watch a video of someone’s hand squeezing a rubber ball.
C.That loss in capacity has been demonstrated in various creative ways.
D.The historian Henry Adams described power as “a sort of tumor that ends by killing the victim’s sympathies.”
E.Laughing when others laugh or tensing when others tense matters.
F.They become more impulsive, less risk-aware, and, crucially, less capable of seeing things from other people’s point of view.

10. 译文:我们的行为方式以及与他人的互动模式,都是内心性格的外在体现。
解析:The way we behave and interact with others 是主语部分,the way 后接定语从句时,关系词可省略;a reflection of 意为“……的反映、体现”。

Most of the negative things that I hear about “Attachment Parents” are completely off-base and describe something that is entirely unlike Attachment-Parenting. Attachment Parenting is child-centered and focuses on the needs of the child. Attachment Parents simply believe that children are taught, not trained.

【答案】1.C 2.D 3.B 4.A
【导语】本文为一篇说明文,本文作者结合自身的育儿经历介绍了一种特定的育儿方法——“依恋育儿”法。
1.细节理解题。根据文章第二段“They simply expect us to listen to them. We pick up our babies when they cry, and we respond to the tears of our older children because we believe firmly that comfort is free, love is free, and that when a child is in need of comfort and love, it is our job to provide these things.(他们只是希望我们听他们的。当婴儿哭泣时,我们会抱起他们,我们会回应大孩子的眼泪,因为我们坚信,安慰是免费的,爱是免费的,当孩子需要安慰和爱时,我们的工作就是提供这些东西)”可知,根据作者的观点,当孩子们哭泣时,父母应该给他们安慰和爱。故选C。
2.词义猜测题。根据第三段free-range前文“Attachment Parenting is not Clingy Parenting. I do not cling(抓紧) to my children.(依恋育儿不是贴紧育儿。我不依附于我的孩子)”及后文“As soon as they can move, they usually move away from me. Sure, I carry them and hug them and chase them and kiss them and rock them and sleep with them. But this is not me following them everywhere and pulling them back to me. This is me being a home base.(只要他们能动,通常就会远离我。当然,我抱着他们,拥抱他们,追逐他们,亲吻他们,摇晃他们,和他们一起睡觉。但这不是我到处跟着他们然后把他们拉回来。这是我扮演一个家庭大本营的角色)”可知,作者给予孩子们想要的自由活动空间,因此,free-range表示“作者愿意给他们的孩子自由行动”。故选D。
3.细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段“Attachment Parenting is not Helicopter Parenting. I don’t hover.(依恋育儿不是直升机育儿。我从不徘徊)”及“ I don’t insist that my 23-month-old hold my hand when we walk on the sidewalk because I know that I can recall him with my voice because he trusts me to allow him to explore and he trusts me to explain when something is dangerous and to help him satisfy his curiosities safely.(当我们走在人行道上时,我不会坚持让我23个月大的孩子牵着我的手,因为我知道我可以用我的声音回忆起他,因为他相信我允许他去探索,他相信我在危险的时候解释,并帮助他安全地满足他的好奇心)”可知,作者认为随时准备保护孩子的行为不是依恋育儿。故选B。
4.主旨大意题。根据文章最后一段“Attachment Parenting is child-centered and focuses on the needs of the child. Attachment Parents simply believe that children are taught, not trained.(依恋育儿法以孩子为中心,关注孩子的需要。父母只是认为孩子是被教导的,而不是被训练的)”及文章中反复出现的“Attachment Parenting”可知,本文作者结合自身的育儿经历介绍了一种特定的育儿方法——“依恋育儿”法。故选A。

(23-24高一下·上海建平中学·期末)Power Causes Brain Damage
If power were a drug, it would come with a long list of known side effects. It can intoxicate. It can corrupt. It can even cause brain damage.
Dacher Keltner, a psychology professor at UC Berkeley, found in studies spanning two decades that subjects under the influence of power acted as if they had suffered a brain injury: 1
Sukhvinder Obhi, a neuroscientist at McMaster University, recently described something similar. 2 And when he put the heads of the powerful and the not-so-powerful under a transcranial-magnetic-stimulation machine, he found that power, in fact, damages a specific neural (神经系统的) process, “mirroring,” that may be an important part of empathy. This gives a neurological basis to what Keltner has termed the “power paradox”: Once we have power, we lose some of the capacities we needed to gain it in the first place.
3 A 2006 study asked participants to draw the letter E on their forehead for others to view — a task that requires seeing yourself from an observer’s vantage point. Those feeling powerful were three times more likely to draw the E the right way to themselves — and backwards to everyone else. (This calls to mind George W. Bush, who memorably held up the American flag backwards at the 2008 Olympics.) Other experiments have shown that powerful people do worse at identifying what someone in a picture is feeling, or guessing how a colleague might interpret a remark.
People tend to mimic the expressions and body language of their superiors, but the powerful stop mimicking others. 4 It helps trigger the same feelings those others are experiencing and provides a window into where they are coming from. Powerful people “stop simulating the experience of others,” Keltner says, which leads to what he calls an “empathy deficit.”
This is a depressing finding, but is there nothing to be done?
No and yes. It’s difficult to stop power’s tendency to affect your brain. What’s easier — from time to time, at least — is to stop feeling powerful. Power is not a post or a position but a mental state. Recount a time you did not feel powerful, Keltner suggests, and your brain can empathize with reality.
A.Unlike Keltner, who studies behaviors, Obhi studies brains.
B.It’s what Obhi and his team were trying to activate when they had their subjects watch a video of someone’s hand squeezing a rubber ball.
C.That loss in capacity has been demonstrated in various creative ways.
D.The historian Henry Adams described power as “a sort of tumor that ends by killing the victim’s sympathies.”
E.Laughing when others laugh or tensing when others tense matters.
F.They become more impulsive, less risk-aware, and, crucially, less capable of seeing things from other people’s point of view.
【答案】1.F 2.A 3.C 4.E
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了研究表明拥有权力会引起人脑损伤。
1.空前说“Dacher Keltner, a psychology professor at UC Berkeley, found in studies spanning two decades that subjects under the influence of power acted as if they had suffered a brain injury (加州大学伯克利分校的心理学教授Dacher Keltner在长达20年的研究中发现,受权力影响的受试者表现得就像遭受了脑损伤一样)”,空前有个冒号,说明空格处要解释说明这些受试者像遭受了脑损伤一样的具体表现是什么,F选项“They become more impulsive, less risk-aware, and, crucially, less capable of seeing things from other people’s point of view. (他们变得更冲动,更缺乏风险意识,至关重要的是,更无法从别人的角度看问题。)”陈述的是像脑损伤一样的表现,因此承接上文,符合语境。故选F。
2.空前说“Sukhvinder Obhi, a neuroscientist at McMaster University, recently described something similar. (麦克马斯特大学的神经科学家Sukhvinder Obhi最近也描述了类似的情况。)”,空格处应该介绍Sukhvinder Obhi是干什么的,A选项“Unlike Keltner, who studies behaviors, Obhi studies brains. (与研究行为的Keltner不同,Obhi研究的是大脑。)”说明了Obhi是研究大脑的人,因此承接上文,符合语境。故选A。
3.空前说“Once we have power, we lose some of the capacities we needed to gain it in the first place. (一旦我们拥有了权力,我们就会失去一些最初获得权力所需的能力。)”,空格处应该说这种能力的丧失会有什么影响,C选项“That loss in capacity has been demonstrated in various creative ways. (这种能力的丧失已经以各种创造性的方式表现出来。)”中的“That loss in capacity”和空前的“we lose some of the capacities”呼应,且说明了这种能力的丧失有各种表现,因此承接上文,引出下文具体的实验和研究结果,符合语境。故选C。
4.空前说“People tend to mimic the expressions and body language of their superiors, but the powerful stop mimicking others. (人们倾向于模仿上级的表情和肢体语言,但有权有势的人不会模仿别人。)”,说明有权有势的人不会模仿别人,空后说“It helps trigger the same feelings those others are experiencing and provides a window into where they are coming from. (它有助于触发其他人正在经历的同样的感觉,并提供了一个窗口,了解它们来自哪里。)”,说明了某个事情的好处,而这个事情应该出现在空格处,因此空格处应该会说其实模仿他人是有好处的,E选项“Laughing when others laugh or tensing when others tense matters. (别人笑的时候笑,别人紧张的时候紧张,这很重要。)”中的“Laughing when others laugh or tensing when others tense”就是模仿,说明模仿别人是有好处的,因此承上启下,符合语境。故选E。
