一、阅读理解A
For something designed to streamline communication,corporate jargon()often does the
opposite-leaving many employees confused and excluded.
A survey of more than 8,000 working professionals across eight countries found that 58 per
cent feel their fellow employees overuse jargon.If given the opportunity,nearly half of them would
remove its usage since interpretingtheir meanings "causes stress and slows down productivity".
Yet,we keep using it.Then why does it continue to exist?
"Language isn't just about sharing information.It's social,said Daria Bahtina,a lecturer.
"When we speak,we're performing relationships,identities,and positions,"she explained.This
isn't limited to managers or corporate departments.Specialized language pops up wherever people
gather,for example,in a team of software engineers,or even a neighbourhood book club after
their third bottle of wine.
In addition,jargon is a means of exclusiveness."Shared jargon can develop a sense of identity
and community,said Eric Anicich,a professor.According to his findings,office jargon is
employed to draw invisible lines between insiders and outsiders.Lower-status individuals are more
likely to use jargon in evaluative situations-not to clarify their message but to signal intelligence
and competence.
So,where do we go from here?When asked about his position on jargon,Anicich replied,
"Jargon is used as a tool-it's not naturally good nor bad,so it depends on how and when you
use it..”
Jargon is indeed integrated into daily life.Bahtina notes that medical drama fans,though not in
hospitals,understand "code blue",showing jargon can spread beyond its origin into everyday speech.
Rather than going to extremes,it's best to question whether jargon is being used
appropriately.If our vocabulary is building walls instead of bridges,it's time to circle back and
rethink how we speak at work.
⑨
1.Why would employees stop using jargon if possible?
A.They find it less helpful.
B.They think it is used too often.
C.They prefer diverse expressions.
D.They intend to expand its meanings.
2.Who is more likely to use jargon according to the text?
A.A friend in the national park.
B.An employer on vacation.
C.A customer over the phone.
D.An applicant in an interview.
3.What is Eric Anicich's attitude towards jargon?
A.Appreciative.B.Unprejudiced.
C.Disapproving.
D.Indefinite.
4.What is a suitable title for the text?
A.Jargon:Hated but Used
B.Applying Jargon,Raising Doubt
C.Jargon:a Universal Device
D.Using Jargon,Building Bridges

二、阅读理解B
Scientists have not yet studied how this background noise in the ecosystem affects plant and
fungal()growth.To investigate the impacts of sound on fungi,Jake Robinson at Flinders
University in Australia and his team buried regular teabags in soil inside a soundproof()
box.Inside the box,they played an 8 kHz tone at a volume of 70 dB for one set of teabags and 90
dB for another,8 hours per day for 14 days.A control group received only ambient()sound
stimulation of less than 30 dB.
At the end of the experiment,the weight of both sets of teabags exposed to sound changed
from 2.5 grams to 3.1 grams,due to the growth of fungi.The control teabags stayed the same
weight on average.
Robinson notes that much more work is required to fully explain their observations.While the
results may seem surprising,he says we can think of sound as an energy input which the fungi are
somehow turning into growth.This may be through a so-called piezoelectric effect(压电效应),in
which mechanical pressure is transformed into electrical energy.
He hopes the research leads to ways to restore habitats by broadcasting sounds."We now need
to build on these findings and transform them into an applied use,"Robinson says.
Christina Birnbaum at the University of Southern Queensland,Australia,says in terms of
ecosystem restoration,this is pioneering work.However,the mechanism()by which sound is
translated to growth is still unclear."The next step is to recreate these findings in the field where
you have all these other factors complicating the laboratory results,"Birnbaum says.
⑨
1.What was the aim of Jake Robinson's experiment?
A.To see how sounds influence fungi.
B.To find a way to improve soil health.
C.To determine the harm of loud noise.D.To explore how fungi produce noise.
2.What happened to the teabags in the experimental group?
A.They became lighter because of sound.B.They became a little bit heavier.
C.They helped with the growth of fungi.D.They were integrated with soil.
3.What is the piezoelectric effect used to explain?
A.The growth of fungi.
B.The process of restoring habitats.
C.The applications of this study.
D.The transformation of electrical energy.
4.What does Christina Birnbaum suggest for the next step of study?
A.Conducting more laboratory experiments.
B.Extending the study to a real-world setting.
C.Identifying the factors affecting the laboratory results.
D.Exploring alternative methods for ecosystem restoration.

高二下
they will be donated to charities.But unfortunately,this is only
wishful thinking..”可知,许多参加音乐节的人遗弃帐篷是因为
他们相信帐篷会被捐给慈善机构。故选D。
2.B推理判断题。在第三段中运用了很多数字,如利兹节上约

Switzerland is a country of 'many interesting sounds'like
yodeling and cowbells'”介绍了瑞士的声音特点,G选项“Sweden
