We choose fast living because we think we have no control of time. We try to do as much as we can each day, checking off tasks on our to-do lists. Living in a rush feels like we are always pressed for time. Our way of thinking that is focused on speed values doing more over doing things well. For a long time, we believe that speed means being productive and successful, and therefore, we keep rushing here and there in doing everything. Yet from time to time, we find ourselves in a predicament (困境) that no matter how fast we go, we never seem to be quick enough to catch up with our endless tasks and goals. The Slow Movement thinks that the answer to our predicament is not to live faster, but to learn how to live slower. The movement began with the Slow Food Program, which was set up in 1986. It believed that we should fight against fast-food restaurants, protect traditional cooking, and encourage people to enjoy preparing and eating food. The belief finally spread from the Slow Food Program to other parts of life. In 1999, it helped create Cittaslow—a group focused on slowing down life in cities. This belief about slowing down quickly began to influence areas like work, travel, fashion, and living in general. The main idea of the Slow Movement is to value quality over quantity (数量) . Slow living is a lifestyle based on the Slow Movement. Its goal is to free us from endless rush that stops us from enjoying moments of rest. Slow living encourages us to live each moment whole-heartedly and give everything the time it needs, rather than try to do as many things as possible in every minute of our lives. Today, more people are drawn to the idea of the Slow Movement, thanks to social media sharing the many benefits of living slowly. 1.Why do people choose fast living? 2.What is the answer to our predicament, according to the Slow Movement? 3.What is the main idea of the Slow Movement? 4.Which lifestyle do you prefer, fast living or slow living? Why? (Please give two reasons.) 中考模拟真题练习 阅读短文,根据短文内容回答问题。 Nowadays, people are spending more hours on work. However, taking some time off is important for refreshing yourself. If you’re having trouble making time for a break, the recent research by UCLA’s Anderson School suggests that treating your weekends like a vacation can make you happier. The findings are based on a series of experiments. In one study of 441 workers, half of the test subjects were directed to have a normal weekend, while the others had to “treat their weekend like a vacation.” To ensure that any difference in happiness was not simply due to different spending abilities, all participants were provided with the same fixed amount of experimental funds (资金) for weekend use. The next Monday, the weekend vacationers reported that they felt happier and were generally more satisfied than those who had had a normal weekend. The vacationers also reported they spent more money in vacation mode—about $130 compared to $104. But it wasn’t the money that bought them happiness. The researchers controlled for the amount of money both groups could spend. The vacationers were still happier than the ones who had experienced a typical weekend. The reason why the vacation approach (方法) may have worked wonders could be that the vacation mindset allows people to be more attentive to the present moment. “We’re always trying to get through things to check off our to-do lists and treating the weekend like a vacation pushes us out of our continuous ‘doing’ mode,” said Cassie Holmes, a professor at UCLA’s Anderson School. The study showed that getting into a vacation mindset during the weekend is relatively easy. Even if you can’t take the entire weekend “off”, you can manage to steal a piece of the weekend to gain the benefits of a vacation mindset. 1.What does the research of UCLA’s Anderson School suggest? 2.How did the researchers make sure that different spending abilities would not affect the results of the study? 3.Why may the vacation approach have worked wonders? 4.How could you as a student try to use the “vacation mindset” from the passage to make your weekends more relaxing? (Please give two examples.) 阅读下面短文,并根据短文内容回答问题。 Many students have problems with vocabulary when preparing for some tests. Last week, TEENS offered advice on how to memorize new words. If you’re now familiar with those methods, why not try moving on to the next stage by using the following tips to build up your English vocabulary. Repeated encounters (反复遇见) The usual way of “memorizing” new material is through repeating it while it’s still in your mind. However, simply repeating a word seems to have little long-term effect. But one kind of repetition is effective: repetition of encounters with a word. Words stand a good chance of being remembered if they’ve been met at least seven times in your reading, at intervals (相隔一段时间). So, read English magazines, newspapers, and websites regularly. Spacing and review It’s better to distribute (分配) memory work over a period of time rather than do it in a single session (一段时间). This is known as the “principle of distributed practice”, where new vocabulary introduced in one lesson is reviewed in the next, and then in later lessons. Use it or lose it By putting new words to use in interesting ways, you can add them to your long-term memory. In a study of vocabulary learning, students are asked to make up their own sentences with new words and read them aloud. The result showed that they remembered them better than those who learned the words separately and silently. Besides, the researchers also asked the students to silently imagine a picture in their minds to go with a new word, and it turned out to be very effective. So it might help if learners link words with a mental image. Mix it up Let’s face it—learning words can be really boring, but it doesn’t have to be. Thanks to the Internet, there are more interesting ways to get the job done. Try watching videos from English-speaking social media celebrities and copying the way they speak. You could even upload your own videos and try becoming a star yourself. 1.What kind of repetition is effective? 2.When is it better to distribute memory work, over a period of time or in a single session? 3.In the study of how to put new words to use in interesting ways, what were the students asked to do? 4.Which tip do you like best? Why? (Please give at least 2 reasons) The Power of Small Wins Have you ever felt discouraged by a big goal, like learning a new language or getting better at a sport? The final success seems so far away that it’s easy to lose heart. However, experts suggest that paying attention to “small wins” can make a big difference. A small win is any tiny progress you make toward your goal. For example, learning five new words today, running for one more minute than yesterday, or finally understanding a difficult math problem—all these are small wins. They might seem unimportant alone, but together they create the path to success. Celebrating these small victories is very important for our brains. Each time we recognize a small win, our brain releases a chemical that makes us feel happy and proud. This positive feeling gives us motivation to keep going. It builds our confidence and helps us develop a “growth mindset”—the belief that we can improve through effort. On the other hand, if we only focus on the faraway final goal, we can feel stressed and want to give up when progress is slow. Tracking small wins helps us see that we are moving forward, even if the steps are small. It teaches us to enjoy the journey of learning and growing, not just the final result. So, how can you use this power? Start by breaking your big goal into small, clear steps. At the end of each day or week, take a moment to write down or think about what you have achieved, no matter how small it seems. By doing this, you will stay encouraged and discover that every small step truly counts. 1.What is a “small win”? 2.Why is celebrating small wins important for our brains? 3.What is the benefit of tracking small wins? 4.Which way do you think is better for achieving a goal: focusing only on the final result or paying attention to small wins? Why? (Please give two reasons.) Today, social media influences how people shop. Unlike the traditional “influencing”, which encourages people to buy more, a new style is becoming more popular—deinfluencing. It means that content (内容) creators tell their followers not to buy some products. This change shows how people think about shopping is different now. Deinfluencing is no accident. It’s a natural reaction to too many ads online. For over ten years, content creators have turned into influencers who made people buy too many things, which was a top marketing method back then. Some popular products were called “must-haves”. But a key problem has appeared: companies often force influencers to put ads in their videos and use editing (剪辑) to hide product problems. This has led to more and more people not trusting influencer-suggested products. A recent study shows that only 12% trust influencer-suggested products, while 42% regret buying them. When prices rise, people usually shop more carefully and refuse to pay extra for “influencer names.” People also care more about the Earth. Making too many products hurts nature. Deinfluencing encourages people to buy what they really need, not what they just want. It tells them to pick things that last long and are good for the Earth. For companies, it’s a good chance to make a positive change. A famous company received complaints about its “uncomfortable toothpaste”. To deal with the complaints, it didn’t hide the problem but started real-life testing and even added “bad product suggestions” to its product page, which got more attention. More and more companies plan to work with content creators who try the products themselves and share honest reviews. These creators are more trusted than those making perfect ads. At heart, deinfluencing cleans up social media. It does not take away influencers’ power. Instead, it helps turn them from sellers into people we can trust. As experts say, “To be deinfluenced, one must first be influenced.” It helps people feel less stressed about what to buy. At the same time, only if a company is open and honest can it stay strong on social media. After all, good product quality speaks louder than any showy ads. 1.What does deinfluencing mean? 2.Why are more and more people not trusting influencer-suggested products? 3.How did the famous toothpaste company deal with the complaints? 4.What do you think of the deinfluencing? Why? (Please give two reasons.) Rooftop Gardens Have you ever seen a rooftop garden-a garden on the top of a roof? Many people are finding it good for the environment and good for themselves. Cities can be as much as 4-10 degrees warmer than the countryside. Green roofs can actually help cool the air in cities. A single green roof will not do much to change the temperature of a city. However, when more buildings begin to change their roofs into green spaces, it makes a real difference. Buildings that are cooler also use air conditioning less often. This reduces the amount of energy a building uses, which is good for the environment. Plants on roofs can even help clean the air. Gardens in the city can also provide a place for birds and bugs to live in. One unusual rooftop garden is located above Children’s Hospital in St. Louis, Missouri. The garden covers an area of 7,500 square feet. The garden has flowers, fountains (喷泉), even a goldfish pond, and also paths that children can walk on in slippers or with bare feet. It is used as a place for the children and their parents to relax and be close to nature without leaving the hospital. Another interesting garden is on the rooftop of the Royal York Hotel in Toronto, Canada. A large vegetable garden has been planted on the roof. The hotel’s chefs can pick fresh vegetables from the roof. Now not all buildings have rooftop gardens. One reason is that rooftop gardens can be more expensive than traditional roofs. However, they may save on heating and cooling bills in the future. Also, a roof needs to be flat and strong enough to support the weight of the garden. Some people may not know about rooftop gardens and how good they can be for the environment. But word is starting to get out. You may want to keep your eyes on the skies when you walk in your town or city. You never know when you might find a secret garden many feet above the ground. 1.Are rooftop gardens more expensive or cheaper than traditional roofs? 2.What does the rooftop garden in Children’s Hospital have? 3.Why is the rooftop garden of the Royal York Hotel interesting? 4.What do you think of the rooftop gardens? Why do you think so?(Give at least two reasons) 阅读短文,根据短文内容回答问题。 Some people think creativity is making something completely new, so they do not think of themselves as creative ones. However, some other people think creativity can just be expressing themselves through everyday acts and they are born creative because it is not an all-or-nothing quality or skill. Whether or not we realize it, we all have the ability to express creativity. Sometimes the way to creative productivity is being willing to do something different. Are you someone who loves to read comics? Perhaps it is time you create one of your own. Don’t worry if you cannot draw very well or feel that you cannot write humorous reports for characters. Nobody says this is an exam! You only have to please yourself, to gain the satisfaction that you try something new, all on your own. If you feel easy, you can of course share it with your loved ones, or post it on social media. Are you someone who likes to express yourself in writing? Try writing a blog. This is a new form of a diary. In your blog, you can write about your thoughts, opinions and experiences. You can also write stories or plays, if you feel up to it! The blog provides you with a platform to create something new every day, in written forms. Are you someone who likes to be alone? Now, think about the things that make you happy. Find a small place in your room, or any place in your home, where you can spend time with yourself. It can be a small corner next to your bed or a wall. It can be a poster of your favorite rock star or photos of your friends. You can also pick a guitar if you like to play instruments, or a few storybooks if you love reading. Some of you may like flowers, candles or pretty things. Decorate your area with your favorite things in any way you like. That is creativity! And if you do feel bored with this, you can change, add or remove something. By realizing the chances in our daily lives to inspire our creativity, no matter how small, we may become more comfortable with taking bigger creative leaps in other aspects of our lives. 1.What is the way to creative productivity? 2.What is a new form of a diary? 3.According to the passage, how can you make yourself happy if you like to be alone? 4.What chances can you find to inspire your creativity? How can you do that? (Please give at least two examples. ) 阅读短文,根据短文内容回答问题。 “What do you think I should do?” asks your friend, as she sits beside you, waiting for your advice. This is no easy situation. Say something your friend disagrees with or something useless, and you might feel you’ve disappointed her. It’s human nature to want to offer solutions when someone comes to you with a problem. It’s also easy to fall into the trap (陷阱) of simply saying that “Everything will be OK”. This is not actually useful for your friend. But we often say that because we believe we need to say something. This is because we’re glad that our friend has come to us for help, even if we don’t really think we’re able to give it. So is it a good idea to try to give advice at all? The answer is yes... if it’s done in the right way. In fact, friends often really only want someone to listen to them. It’s important to try to work out whether they’re actually asking for advice, or simply wanting to talk over whatever is going round in their head. Talking may make people feel better all by themselves. There’s no harm in asking whether they’d like you to give suggestions. It’s also important to be honest. If you’re unable to think of a way to solve your friends’ problem, just say so. Your friends won’t feel upset, and you can still listen carefully and try to put yourself in their shoes. Then you can go away and try to think of something helpful. You can ask yourself “What would I do if I were to experience the same thing?” Later you can go back to your friends with a few helpful suggestions. Sometimes a problem doesn’t go away overnight. It can be hard to listen to your friends going over and over the same thing without being able to help them. They will certainly be thankful if you just allow them to “talk it out”, though. Maybe they’re building up courage to take action, and need to convince (说服) themselves they’re doing the right thing. Just being there for them may be all you have to do to make things better. 1.What is human nature when someone comes to you with a problem? 2.What do friends often really only want someone to do? 3.What question can you ask yourself to think of helpful suggestions for your friends? 4.Which would you prefer to do first when friends ask for advice—listen and check if they really want advice, or simply tell them that everything will be OK? Why? (Please give two reasons) 阅读短文,根据短文内容回答问题。 Imagine yourself sitting in a quiet reading corner at home, tuning out (不理睬) the world around you and lost in a story. You read the summary on the book cover, immediately get interested, and now you’re halfway through a super interesting book. These days, paper books, e-books and audio books are three popular reading forms. And a hot discussion has started among readers: Does the way you read affect your experience of the book? As we all know, reading is very good for us. It practises many functions of our brain, such as attention, reasoning, reading skills, memory and understanding. Reading can also help us improve our communication ability, expand our vocabulary, and even make us more emotionally intelligent and better at understanding others. No matter which reading way we choose, we can get these benefits. Let’s first talk about reading with our eyes—paper books and e-books. They have a big advantage: helping us remember information better. When we see the words directly, we can pay closer attention to the content. What’s more, with paper books, it’s easy to look back to find parts we missed, especially when our minds wander, which is common for most readers. E-books are also convenient because they can store many books in one device, making it easy to read anywhere. On the other hand, audio books have their own advantages. Put on your headphones, and you can escape from daily life. The story becomes vivid, just like watching a movie in your mind. From a scientific point of view, listening to audio books can help us feel more empathy. We can hear the narrator’s emotions, understand the tone and intonation better, and this uses different parts of our brain. It makes the story more interesting and imaginative, so we may enjoy it more. However, audio books also have a disadvantage: it’s harder to go back and listen to parts again if we miss something. In conclusion, paper books, e-books and audio books all have their own advantages. Next time you want to read a book, why not think about which way suits you best? Choosing the right way to read can make your literary experience more wonderful. 1.What are the three popular reading forms these days? 2.What big advantage do paper books and e-books have? 3.What is the disadvantage of listening to audio books? 4.Which kind of books do you prefer to read, paper books, e-books or audio books? Why? (Please give two reasons.) 阅读短文,根据短文内容回答问题。 Audiobooks (有声书) may have become our usual companions, whether we’re jogging outside or relaxing at home. Yet, some people wonder: Can we actually learn from them? In short, it depends. The type of literature you choose really matters. A story is much easier to follow by listening. But for school books or articles with lots of new ideas and facts, reading them on paper is usually better. This way, you’re likely to understand and remember more. Audiobooks are great for picking up facts. But if you need to understand difficult ideas, they are not always the best choice. Why? Because it’s hard to build connections between ideas through listening. When you read a book, your eyes can quickly go back to any confusing part. It’s like your brain and eyes work together to help you understand. With audiobooks, this is harder. For example, if you miss an important sentence, you have to listen again and again to find it. Because it takes more effort, people often just keep listening instead of stopping to clean up what they didn’t understand. What’s the result? In books, different ideas are often connected. When you read, you can easily see these connections on the page. But when you listen, you might miss how one idea leads to another. The narrator’s voice can also greatly affect your listening experience. Some listeners find that certain voices make the experience less enjoyable, no matter how good the content (内容) is. For example, a flat voice can pull your attention away or make you work harder to understand. Other voices might feel just right and make the story clearer and more enjoyable. Next time you can’t decide whether to listen or read, first think about your purpose. If it’s just for fun or to get some simple information, then listening is a great choice—just press play. But if your goal is to really learn and understand, especially when the material is hard to understand, reading carefully is often the better way. Words on a page let you think slowly and go back easily when needed. 1.Which type of literature is easier to follow by listening? 2.Why are audiobooks not the best choice for understanding difficult ideas? 3.What can pull your attention away when you listen to audiobooks? 4.Imagine you need to read a novel, would you like to read it in print or listen to it as an audiobook? Why? (Please give two reasons.) Have you ever bought something without knowing what’s inside? That’s the fun of blind boxes—small, unopened packages that hide collectable toys or figures (人偶). You don’t know which one you’ll get until you open it. It’s just this kind of surprising joy that makes blind boxes so popular among teenagers and young adults. Each blind box belongs to a themed series, such as lovely animals, cartoon characters, or cute food items. All the boxes look the same from the outside, but inside lies a surprise. Some figures are common, while others are uncommon and hard to find. Many collectors feel excited every time they open a box, hoping to get that special figure they’ve been searching for. However, blind boxes are not just about the toys—they’re also about the experience. Collectors often meet and exchange figures in stores and share their excitement together. Some even record unboxing videos and post them on social media. For many, collecting blind boxes becomes a way to express creativity and personality. They decorate their rooms with their favorite figures, design small shelves for display, or use them in art projects. Through this shared interest, a small and friendly community is formed. But the excitement can become addictive (上瘾的), which is the main problem of buying blind boxes. Since you never know what’s inside, it’s easy to keep buying “just one more” box, hoping to find the uncommon one. Some people end up spending more than they planned. That’s why it’s important to set a budget (预算) and always remind yourself that collecting should bring joy, not pressure and waste. Blind boxes have become an important part of modern pop culture, combining (融合) art, design, and curiosity together in one small package. Whether you collect them or simply watch unboxing videos online, they remind us of the joy of discovery. Sometimes, the best part of life is the unknown— the little surprises waiting to be opened. As long as we open them with care, patience, and self-control, blind boxes can bring fun and creativity to our everyday lives. 1.What makes blind boxes popular among young adults? 2.According to the writer, what are blind boxes about? 3.What is the main problem of buying blind boxes? 4.Is it necessary to set a budget before buying blind boxes? Why? (Please give two reasons.) 阅读短文,根据短文内容回答问题。 We all have our eye on the prize. That one big goal drives you to get up every day. For some, it’s a number, such as scores or pay rise, etc. For others, it’s a qualitative goal like being happy and satisfied every day. The thing about having the final goal in mind is that you have to make stops along the way, whether you like it or not. And the smaller prize is as important as the final prize because you have to pass it along the way. Celebrating the small victories gives you a sense of achievement. For getting to the end goal, you need to set milestones (阶段性目标) for yourself. So you can both check your progress and celebrate that you are one step closer to your final goal. The path to your success will shape who you are. How you deal with problems and move forward influences how you see yourself and how others see you. Also, once you are close to your final goal, the path you took is your personal history. Better to mark it with a series of celebrations than a boring storyline. Breaking the final goal into smaller milestones makes the journey seem more manageable. If you task yourself with a marathon overnight, it seems like a challenging goal—plus, how do you get there? However, saying you want to start from 3km is a little more manageable. That way, if the first milestone isn’t met, then you can adjust (调整) your way for the second quarter. If it’s so important to celebrate the small victories, then how do you get there? You should start out with your final goal in mind and work backwards to know what milestones you want to hit and when. Here are a few steps when setting your milestones. The first step is to list them clearly. If your milestones are unclear, how will you know when you have reached them? Besides, set quantitative (定量的) goals and stick to them. Quantitative is much easier to follow. And remember to record your progress. If a milestone isn’t met, find out why and adjust your way. So what are you waiting for? It’s time to celebrate! 1.Why is the smaller prize as important as the final prize? 2.What makes the journey to the final goal seem more manageable? 3.What is the first step when setting milestones? 4.Would you like to celebrate small wins? Why or why not? (Please give two reasons.) There’s a lot of fear around spending time alone. Alone time can make people really bored. Worse, some articles and studies warn us about the dangers of loneliness—one in 2017 says loneliness is as bad as smoking 15 cigarettes a day. Another in 2023 presents the risks of chronic (长期的) loneliness, such as increased risks of disease. However, not all alone time is the same. There’s chronic loneliness—and there’s solitude (独处). One is a serious problem. The other is a skill we must develop. Chronic loneliness happens when there is unhappiness about the state of having few friends or a sense of social isolation (隔离). But we do so many activities alone that don’t come with the dangers of chronic loneliness—reading a book, doing an art project or cooking a meal. This kind of positive alone time is called solitude, which is a state of being free of the requirements of others. While chronic loneliness is bad for our health, solitude can be the opposite. Yet we don’t know how to welcome it, and we often avoid it. We sometimes stay in bad relationships so as not to be alone. This isn’t surprising. One of the main parts of chronic loneliness is social isolation. According to John Cacioppo, a professor at the University of Chicago, loneliness is a biological sign similar to hunger or thirst. When we are in a state of painful loneliness, it is our bodies that give us information to find social support or social ties. However, being more in touch with our loneliness sensors helps us use the healthy kind of alone time. You wouldn’t be ashamed of needing water when thirsty, so why should you feel bad about feeling lonely? What’s more, we might have more control over how connected we feel with others than we think. According to a Yale’s study, if you can feel connected with loved ones even when you’re not around them, you can still feel socially connected. I am a believer in finding your best solitude style. I encourage those who don’t like being alone to try it out once. You may find yourself looking for it again and again. Taking a hike in the woods alone allows you to look at nature more closely than hiking with a friend. When you save a meaningful moment for just you, you get to be the only maker of your experiences. 1.When does chronic loneliness happen? 2.According to the passage, what is solitude? 3.What is the benefit of being more in touch with our loneliness sensors? 4.Do you think it is necessary for you to make time for solitude? Why or why not?

The hard-working couple, both forest guards, are responsible for nearly 467 hectares of protected areas, ensuring the safety of wild animals and plants. The Dashahe Nature Reserve was set up in 1984 and became a national-level nature reserve in May 2018. Covering an area of 26,990 hectares, it is home to endangered species (物种) such as the Tonkin langur. Zhao has served as a forest guard in the reserve for many years. His wife, Sheng, joined the team in 2020. Every day, they start work early in the morning. One guards an important checkpoint to keep out anyone who’s not allowed in, while the other patrols (巡逻) the forest. Their tasks include recording wildlife activities and clearing overgrown plants around signs and infrared cameras used for monitoring and protection. “From early morning to midnight, there’s little time to rest,” said Zhao. “Most visitors leave when they are told the area is protected, but some visitors ignore (忽视) the rules, so the patrols must continue.” A full round-trip patrol usually takes more than three hours. Loneliness is another big challenge, as the main part of the protected area is far from other people. While on patrol, the couple face non-stop uncertainty—never knowing what wild animals might endanger their lives. Even though the hours are long and the work is lonely, the couple find meaning in their day-to-day duties. “Watching the changes along our way makes time pass easily. You can notice many small changes day by day,” Zhao said. Having known each other since their early teens, Zhao and Sheng have set up a family and raised two children. During the Spring Festival, their daughters visited them for a family get-together. “Maybe the station is not as comfortable as the house in the village, but once our family is together, happiness fills every corner of the checkpoint,” Sheng said. 1.When was Dashahe Nature Reserve set up? 2.Why must the patrols continue? 3.How long does a full round-trip patrol usually take? 4.What do you think of the couple? Why do you think so? (Please give two reasons.) “Lying down” (also known as tang ping), has become a hot word among young Chinese people these days. The idea of low material needs and being willing to accept whatever life gives them is described as a “lying down” lifestyle. Some young people complain that to raise a child needs too much money and they often get into a fight with their family. At the same time, the rising living costs including food and housing have pushed them so hard that they could hardly breathe. Some want to lie down because their tiring jobs, competition with peers, as well as personal relationships force them to run away. On the other hand, with the great improvement of living conditions, it is true that some Chinese youth today have lost the spirit of fighting hard for a better life. “I stay at home, sleep and watch TV series, and I’m pleased with what I have now. Actually, there are many people around me who value happiness and freedom most,” said Daisy, who left her job two weeks ago. No wonder that some young people would choose to live a simple way instead of always following the good quality of fighting hard. Interestingly, most young people, who are “big fans” of the “lying down” lifestyle, point out that they only accept a temporary (暂时的) lying down as a short rest. In fact, lying down is not totally comfortable for them.

We choose fast living because we think we have no control of time. We try to do as much as we can each day, checking off tasks on our to-do lists. Living in a rush feels like we are always pressed for time. Our way of thinking that is focused on speed values doing more over doing things well. For a long time, we believe that speed means being productive and successful, and therefore, we keep rushing here and there in doing everything. Yet from time to time, we find ourselves in a predicament (困境) that no matter how fast we go, we never seem to be quick enough to catch up with our endless tasks and goals. The Slow Movement thinks that the answer to our predicament is not to live faster, but to learn how to live slower. The movement began with the Slow Food Program, which was set up in 1986. It believed that we should fight against fast-food restaurants, protect traditional cooking, and encourage people to enjoy preparing and eating food. The belief finally spread from the Slow Food Program to other parts of life. In 1999, it helped create Cittaslow—a group focused on slowing down life in cities. This belief about slowing down quickly began to influence areas like work, travel, fashion, and living in general. The main idea of the Slow Movement is to value quality over quantity (数量) . Slow living is a lifestyle based on the Slow Movement. Its goal is to free us from endless rush that stops us from enjoying moments of rest. Slow living encourages us to live each moment whole-heartedly and give everything the time it needs, rather than try to do as many things as possible in every minute of our lives. Today, more people are drawn to the idea of the Slow Movement, thanks to social media sharing the many benefits of living slowly. 1.Why do people choose fast living? 2.What is the answer to our predicament, according to the Slow Movement? 3.What is the main idea of the Slow Movement? 4.Which lifestyle do you prefer, fast living or slow living? Why? (Please give two reasons.) 【答案】1.Because they think they have no control of time. 2.The answer is to learn how to live slower. 3.The main idea is to value quality over quantity. 4.I prefer slow living. First, it can free us from endless rush and help us enjoy moments of rest. Second, it helps us reduce stress, making us feel more relaxed and at peace. 【导语】本文是一篇议论文,主要探讨了现代人快节奏生活的弊端,并介绍了“慢生活运动”的理念及其意义。 1.根据第一段“We choose fast living because we think we have no control of time.”可知,人们选择快生活是因为他们认为自己无法掌控时间。故填Because they think they have no control of time. 2.根据第三段“The Slow Movement thinks that the answer to our predicament is not to live faster, but to learn how to live slower.”可知,慢生活运动认为,解决困境的方法不是更快地生活,而是学会如何慢下来。故填The answer is to learn how to live slower. 3.根据第五段“The main idea of the Slow Movement is to value quality over quantity.”可知,慢生活运动的主旨是重视质量而非数量。故填The main idea is to value quality over quantity. 4.本题是一道开放性试题,结合个人观点选择快节奏生活或者慢节奏生活,并给出两个原因。参考答案为:I prefer slow living. First, it can free us from endless rush and help us enjoy moments of rest. Second, it helps us reduce stress, making us feel more relaxed and at peace. 中考模拟真题练习 阅读短文,根据短文内容回答问题。 Nowadays, people are spending more hours on work. However, taking some time off is important for refreshing yourself. If you’re having trouble making time for a break, the recent research by UCLA’s Anderson School suggests that treating your weekends like a vacation can make you happier. The findings are based on a series of experiments. In one study of 441 workers, half of the test subjects were directed to have a normal weekend, while the others had to “treat their weekend like a vacation.” To ensure that any difference in happiness was not simply due to different spending abilities, all participants were provided with the same fixed amount of experimental funds (资金) for weekend use. The next Monday, the weekend vacationers reported that they felt happier and were generally more satisfied than those who had had a normal weekend. The vacationers also reported they spent more money in vacation mode—about $130 compared to $104. But it wasn’t the money that bought them happiness. The researchers controlled for the amount of money both groups could spend. The vacationers were still happier than the ones who had experienced a typical weekend. The reason why the vacation approach (方法) may have worked wonders could be that the vacation mindset allows people to be more attentive to the present moment. “We’re always trying to get through things to check off our to-do lists and treating the weekend like a vacation pushes us out of our continuous ‘doing’ mode,” said Cassie Holmes, a professor at UCLA’s Anderson School. The study showed that getting into a vacation mindset during the weekend is relatively easy. Even if you can’t take the entire weekend “off”, you can manage to steal a piece of the weekend to gain the benefits of a vacation mindset. 1.What does the research of UCLA’s Anderson School suggest? 2.How did the researchers make sure that different spending abilities would not affect the results of the study? 3.Why may the vacation approach have worked wonders? 4.How could you as a student try to use the “vacation mindset” from the passage to make your weekends more relaxing? (Please give two examples.) 【答案】1.Treating your weekends like a vacation can make you happier. 2.They provided all participants with the same fixed amount of experimental funds for weekend use. 3.Because the vacation mindset allows people to be more attentive to the present moment. 4.I could try to put away my textbooks and to-do lists for a few hours and do something I truly enjoy, like reading a book for fun or listening to music. This would help me feel relaxed and refreshed, allowing me to return to my schoolwork with more energy and a clearer mind. I could go for a walk in a park with my family and try to focus on the beautiful scenery and our conversation, just like I would do on a real trip. This would make me feel more connected to my family and more attentive to the present moment, which would lift my mood and reduce my stress from studying. 【导语】本文主要介绍了一项关于周末休息的研究。如今人们工作时间较长,休息对恢复精力很重要。加州大学洛杉矶分校安德森学院的研究表明,将周末当作假期对待能让人更快乐。 1.根据“If you’re having trouble making time for a break, the recent research by UCLA’s Anderson School suggests that treating your weekends like a vacation can make you happier.”可知,研究的核心结论是“将周末当作假期能让人更快乐”。故填Treating your weekends like a vacation can make you happier. 2.根据“To ensure that any difference in happiness was not simply due to different spending abilities, all participants were provided with the same fixed amount of experimental funds (资金) for weekend use.”可知,他们为所有参与者提供了相同的固定金额的实验资金,供周末使用。故填They provided all participants with the same fixed amount of experimental funds for weekend use. 3.根据“The reason why the vacation approach (方法) may have worked wonders could be that the vacation mindset allows people to be more attentive to the present moment.”可知,直接原因即“度假心态让人更关注当下”。故填Because the vacation mindset allows people to be more attentive to the present moment. 4.开放性试题,答案合理即可。故填I could try to put away my textbooks and to-do lists for a few hours and do something I truly enjoy, like reading a book for fun or listening to music.

Last week, TEENS offered advice on how to memorize new words. If you’re now familiar with those methods, why not try moving on to the next stage by using the following tips to build up your English vocabulary. Repeated encounters (反复遇见) The usual way of “memorizing” new material is through repeating it while it’s still in your mind. However, simply repeating a word seems to have little long-term effect. But one kind of repetition is effective: repetition of encounters with a word. Words stand a good chance of being remembered if they’ve been met at least seven times in your reading, at intervals (相隔一段时间). So, read English magazines, newspapers, and websites regularly. Spacing and review It’s better to distribute (分配) memory work over a period of time rather than do it in a single session (一段时间). This is known as the “principle of distributed practice”, where new vocabulary introduced in one lesson is reviewed in the next, and then in later lessons. Use it or lose it By putting new words to use in interesting ways, you can add them to your long-term memory. In a study of vocabulary learning, students are asked to make up their own sentences with new words and read them aloud. The result showed that they remembered them better than those who learned the words separately and silently. Besides, the researchers also asked the students to silently imagine a picture in their minds to go with a new word, and it turned out to be very effective. So it might help if learners link words with a mental image. Mix it up Let’s face it—learning words can be really boring, but it doesn’t have to be. Thanks to the Internet, there are more interesting ways to get the job done. Try watching videos from English-speaking social media celebrities and copying the way they speak. You could even upload your own videos and try becoming a star yourself. 1.What kind of repetition is effective? 2.When is it better to distribute memory work, over a period of time or in a single session? 3.In the study of how to put new words to use in interesting ways, what were the students asked to do? 4.Which tip do you like best? Why? (Please give at least 2 reasons) 【答案】1.Repetition of encounters with a word. 2.Over a period of time. 3.They were asked to make up their own sentences with new words and read them aloud, and silently imagine a picture in their minds to go with a new word. 4.I like the tip “Repeated encounters” best. First, reading English magazines or newspapers regularly is easy to do in daily life. Second, meeting words many times can help me remember them for a long time. 【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要针对如何扩大英语词汇量、有效记忆新单词介绍了四个实用的技巧。 1.根据Repeated encounters部分“But one kind of repetition is effective: repetition of encounters with a word.”可知,有效的重复是重复遇到一个单词。 2.根据Spacing and review部分“It’s better to distribute (分配) memory work over a period of time rather than do it in a single session (一段时间).”可知,在一段时间内分配记忆任务会更好。 3.根据Use it or lose it部分“In a study of vocabulary learning, students are asked to make up their own sentences with new words and read them aloud…Besides, the researchers also asked the students to silently imagine a picture in their minds to go with a new word…”可知,学生们被要求用新单词自己造句并大声朗读,以及在脑海中默想一幅与新单词相关的图。 4.开放性题目,答案不唯一,但观点要基于文章事实,且注意至少陈述两点原因,言之有理即可。 The Power of Small Wins Have you ever felt discouraged by a big goal, like learning a new language or getting better at a sport? The final success seems so far away that it’s easy to lose heart. However, experts suggest that paying attention to “small wins” can make a big difference. A small win is any tiny progress you make toward your goal. For example, learning five new words today, running for one more minute than yesterday, or finally understanding a difficult math problem—all these are small wins. They might seem unimportant alone, but together they create the path to success. Celebrating these small victories is very important for our brains. Each time we recognize a small win, our brain releases a chemical that makes us feel happy and proud. This positive feeling gives us motivation to keep going. It builds our confidence and helps us develop a “growth mindset”—the belief that we can improve through effort. On the other hand, if we only focus on the faraway final goal, we can feel stressed and want to give up when progress is slow. Tracking small wins helps us see that we are moving forward, even if the steps are small. It teaches us to enjoy the journey of learning and growing, not just the final result. So, how can you use this power? Start by breaking your big goal into small, clear steps. At the end of each day or week, take a moment to write down or think about what you have achieved, no matter how small it seems. By doing this, you will stay encouraged and discover that every small step truly counts. 1.What is a “small win”? 2.Why is celebrating small wins important for our brains? 3.What is the benefit of tracking small wins? 4.Which way do you think is better for achieving a goal: focusing only on the final result or paying attention to small wins? Why? (Please give two reasons.) 【答案】1.A small win is any tiny progress you make toward your goal. 2.Because each time we recognize a small win, our brain releases a chemical that makes us feel happy and proud, giving us motivation to keep going. 3.It helps us see that we are moving forward and teaches us to enjoy the journey of learning and growing, not just the final result. 4.I think paying attention to small wins is better for achieving a goal. Firstly, celebrating small wins gives us motivation and builds our confidence, helping us develop a growth mindset. Secondly, tracking small wins helps us see our progress and enjoy the journey of learning and growing, not just the final result. 【导语】本文主要讨论了“小胜利”的力量,包括什么是“小胜利”、庆祝小胜利的重要性、追踪小胜利的好处以及如何利用这种力量实现目标。 1.根据第二段首句“A small win is any tiny progress you make toward your goal.”可知,小胜利是朝着目标取得的任何微小进步。故填A small win is any tiny progress you make toward your goal. 2.根据第三段“Each time we recognize a small win, our brain releases a chemical that makes us feel happy and proud. This positive feeling gives us motivation to keep going.”可知,每次我们认识到一个小胜利,我们的大脑就会释放一种化学物质,让我们感到快乐和自豪。这种积极的感觉给了我们继续前进的动力。故填Because each time we recognize a small win, our brain releases a chemical that makes us feel happy and proud, giving us motivation to keep going. 3.根据第四段“Tracking small wins helps us see that we are moving forward, even if the steps are small. It teaches us to enjoy the journey of learning and growing, not just the final result.”可知,追踪小胜利有助于我们看到自己正在前进,即使步伐很小。它教会我们享受学习和成长的过程,而不仅仅是最终的结果。故填It helps us see that we are moving forward and teaches us to enjoy the journey of learning and growing, not just the final result. 4.开放性问题,言之有理即可。参考答案为:I think paying attention to small wins is better for achieving a goal. Firstly, celebrating small wins gives us motivation and builds our confidence, helping us develop a growth mindset. Secondly, tracking small wins helps us see our progress and enjoy the journey of learning and growing, not just the final result. Today, social media influences how people shop. Unlike the traditional “influencing”, which encourages people to buy more, a new style is becoming more popular—deinfluencing. It means that content (内容) creators tell their followers not to buy some products. This change shows how people think about shopping is different now. Deinfluencing is no accident. It’s a natural reaction to too many ads online. For over ten years, content creators have turned into influencers who made people buy too many things, which was a top marketing method back then. Some popular products were called “must-haves”. But a key problem has appeared: companies often force influencers to put ads in their videos and use editing (剪辑) to hide product problems. This has led to more and more people not trusting influencer-suggested products. A recent study shows that only 12% trust influencer-suggested products, while 42% regret buying them. When prices rise, people usually shop more carefully and refuse to pay extra for “influencer names.” People also care more about the Earth. Making too many products hurts nature. Deinfluencing encourages people to buy what they really need, not what they just want. It tells them to pick things that last long and are good for the Earth. For companies, it’s a good chance to make a positive change. A famous company received complaints about its “uncomfortable toothpaste”. To deal with the complaints, it didn’t hide the problem but started real-life testing and even added “bad product suggestions” to its product page, which got more attention. More and more companies plan to work with content creators who try the products themselves and share honest reviews. These creators are more trusted than those making perfect ads. At heart, deinfluencing cleans up social media. It does not take away influencers’ power. Instead, it helps turn them from sellers into people we can trust. As experts say, “To be deinfluenced, one must first be influenced.” It helps people feel less stressed about what to buy. At the same time, only if a company is open and honest can it stay strong on social media. After all, good product quality speaks louder than any showy ads. 1.What does deinfluencing mean? 2.Why are more and more people not trusting influencer-suggested products? 3.How did the famous toothpaste company deal with the complaints? 4.What do you think of the deinfluencing? Why? (Please give two reasons.) 【答案】1.It means that content creators tell their followers not to buy some products. 2.Because companies often force them to put ads in their videos and use editing to hide product problems. 3.It didn’t hide the problem but started real-life testing and even added “bad product suggestions” to its product page. 4.I think deinfluencing is positive. First, it helps people feel less stressed about what to buy. Second, it cleans up social media. 【导语】本文主要介绍反影响这一现象,说明其流行原因、对企业的影响,以及它能让人们理性消费、净化社交媒体的好处。 1.根据第一段“a new style is becoming more popular—deinfluencing. It means that content (内容) creators tell their followers not to buy some products.”可知,deinfluencing指的是内容创作者告诉他们的粉丝不要购买某些产品。故填It means that content creators tell their followers not to buy some products. 2.根据第二段“companies often force influencers to put ads in their videos and use editing (剪辑) to hide product problems. This has led to more and more people not trusting influencer-suggested products.”可知,越来越多的人不再相信网红推荐的产品,是因为企业常常强迫网红在他们的视频中插入广告,并通过剪辑手段掩盖产品存在的问题。故填Because companies often force them to put ads in their videos and use editing to hide product problems. 3.根据倒数第二段“To deal with the complaints, it didn’t hide the problem but started real-life testing and even added‘bad product suggestions’to its product page”可知,为解决这些投诉,该公司并未回避问题,而是展开了实际测试,并甚至在产品页面中添加了“不良产品建议”这一内容。故填It didn’t hide the problem but started real-life testing and even added “bad product suggestions” to its product page. 4.句意:你怎么看待“deinfluencing(反影响)”这种现象?为什么?给出两个原因。开放性回答,合理即可,可参考最后一段。故填I think deinfluencing is positive. First, it helps people feel less stressed about what to buy. Second, it cleans up social media. Rooftop Gardens Have you ever seen a rooftop garden-a garden on the top of a roof? Many people are finding it good for the environment and good for themselves. Cities can be as much as 4-10 degrees warmer than the countryside. Green roofs can actually help cool the air in cities. A single green roof will not do much to change the temperature of a city. However, when more buildings begin to change their roofs into green spaces, it makes a real difference. Buildings that are cooler also use air conditioning less often. This reduces the amount of energy a building uses, which is good for the environment. Plants on roofs can even help clean the air. Gardens in the city can also provide a place for birds and bugs to live in. One unusual rooftop garden is located above Children’s Hospital in St. Louis, Missouri. The garden covers an area of 7,500 square feet. The garden has flowers, fountains (喷泉), even a goldfish pond, and also paths that children can walk on in slippers or with bare feet. It is used as a place for the children and their parents to relax and be close to nature without leaving the hospital. Another interesting garden is on the rooftop of the Royal York Hotel in Toronto, Canada. A large vegetable garden has been planted on the roof. The hotel’s chefs can pick fresh vegetables from the roof. Now not all buildings have rooftop gardens. One reason is that rooftop gardens can be more expensive than traditional roofs. However, they may save on heating and cooling bills in the future. Also, a roof needs to be flat and strong enough to support the weight of the garden. Some people may not know about rooftop gardens and how good they can be for the environment. But word is starting to get out. You may want to keep your eyes on the skies when you walk in your town or city. You never know when you might find a secret garden many feet above the ground. 1.Are rooftop gardens more expensive or cheaper than traditional roofs? 2.What does the rooftop garden in Children’s Hospital have? 3.Why is the rooftop garden of the Royal York Hotel interesting? 4.What do you think of the rooftop gardens? Why do you think so?(Give at least two reasons) 【答案】1.They are more expensive. 2.It has flowers, fountains, a goldfish pond and paths for children to walk on. 3.Because a large vegetable garden is planted on its roof, and the hotel’s chefs can pick fresh vegetables from there. 4.I think they are great. First, they help cool the air and are good for the environment. Second, they offer a nice place for people to relax and enjoy nature. 【导语】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了屋顶花园(rooftop gardens)的环保作用、实际应用案例,以及其推广面临的成本和承重等限制因素,同时展望了这一绿色空间的发展前景。 1.根据“One reason is that rooftop gardens can be more expensive than traditional roofs.”可知,屋顶花园比传统屋顶更贵。故填They are more expensive. 2.根据“The garden has flowers, fountains (喷泉), even a goldfish pond, and also paths that children can walk on in slippers or with bare feet.”可知,儿童医院的屋顶花园有花、喷泉、金鱼池以及可供孩子们赤脚或穿拖鞋行走的小径。故填It has flowers, fountains, a goldfish pond and paths for children to walk on. 3.根据“A large vegetable garden has been planted on the roof. The hotel’s chefs can pick fresh vegetables from the roof.”可知,皇家约克酒店的屋顶花园有趣之处在于屋顶上种了一个大菜园,酒店的厨师可以从屋顶采摘新鲜蔬菜。故填Because a large vegetable garden is planted on its roof, and the hotel’s chefs can pick fresh vegetables from there. 4.本题为开放性问题,答案不唯一。可结合文中提到的环保、降温、提供休闲空间等优势作答。故填I think they are great. First, they help cool the air and are good for the environment. Second, they offer a nice place for people to relax and enjoy nature. 阅读短文,根据短文内容回答问题。 Some people think creativity is making something completely new, so they do not think of themselves as creative ones. However, some other people think creativity can just be expressing themselves through everyday acts and they are born creative because it is not an all-or-nothing quality or skill. Whether or not we realize it, we all have the ability to express creativity. Sometimes the way to creative productivity is being willing to do something different. Are you someone who loves to read comics? Perhaps it is time you create one of your own. Don’t worry if you cannot draw very well or feel that you cannot write humorous reports for characters. Nobody says this is an exam! You only have to please yourself, to gain the satisfaction that you try something new, all on your own. If you feel easy, you can of course share it with your loved ones, or post it on social media. Are you someone who likes to express yourself in writing? Try writing a blog. This is a new form of a diary. In your blog, you can write about your thoughts, opinions and experiences. You can also write stories or plays, if you feel up to it! The blog provides you with a platform to create something new every day, in written forms. Are you someone who likes to be alone? Now, think about the things that make you happy. Find a small place in your room, or any place in your home, where you can spend time with yourself. It can be a small corner next to your bed or a wall. It can be a poster of your favorite rock star or photos of your friends. You can also pick a guitar if you like to play instruments, or a few storybooks if you love reading. Some of you may like flowers, candles or pretty things. Decorate your area with your favorite things in any way you like. That is creativity! And if you do feel bored with this, you can change, add or remove something. By realizing the chances in our daily lives to inspire our creativity, no matter how small, we may become more comfortable with taking bigger creative leaps in other aspects of our lives. 1.What is the way to creative productivity? 2.What is a new form of a diary? 3.According to the passage, how can you make yourself happy if you like to be alone? 4.What chances can you find to inspire your creativity? How can you do that? (Please give at least two examples. ) 【答案】1.Being willing to do something different. 2.Writing a blog. 3.Find a small place in my room, or any place in my home, and decorate it with my favorite things in any way I like. 4.I can find chances in my daily life to inspire my creativity. For example, I can try to create my own comic even if I can’t draw well or write humorous reports. Another example is that I can write a blog to express my thoughts, opinions, and experiences. 【导语】本文主要探讨了人们对创造力的不同理解,阐述了每个人都有表达创造力的能力,并介绍了通过不同日常活动激发创造力的方式。 1.根据第二段“Sometimes the way to creative productivity is being willing to do something different.”可知,通往创造性生产力的方法是愿意做一些不同的事情。故填Being willing to do something different. 2.根据第四段“Try writing a blog.

Another example is that I can write a blog to express my thoughts, opinions, and experiences. 阅读短文,根据短文内容回答问题。 “What do you think I should do?” asks your friend, as she sits beside you, waiting for your advice. This is no easy situation. Say something your friend disagrees with or something useless, and you might feel you’ve disappointed her. It’s human nature to want to offer solutions when someone comes to you with a problem. It’s also easy to fall into the trap (陷阱) of simply saying that “Everything will be OK”. This is not actually useful for your friend. But we often say that because we believe we need to say something. This is because we’re glad that our friend has come to us for help, even if we don’t really think we’re able to give it. So is it a good idea to try to give advice at all? The answer is yes... if it’s done in the right way. In fact, friends often really only want someone to listen to them. It’s important to try to work out whether they’re actually asking for advice, or simply wanting to talk over whatever is going round in their head. Talking may make people feel better all by themselves. There’s no harm in asking whether they’d like you to give suggestions. It’s also important to be honest. If you’re unable to think of a way to solve your friends’ problem, just say so. Your friends won’t feel upset, and you can still listen carefully and try to put yourself in their shoes. Then you can go away and try to think of something helpful. You can ask yourself “What would I do if I were to experience the same thing?” Later you can go back to your friends with a few helpful suggestions. Sometimes a problem doesn’t go away overnight. It can be hard to listen to your friends going over and over the same thing without being able to help them. They will certainly be thankful if you just allow them to “talk it out”, though. Maybe they’re building up courage to take action, and need to convince (说服) themselves they’re doing the right thing. Just being there for them may be all you have to do to make things better. 1.What is human nature when someone comes to you with a problem? 2.What do friends often really only want someone to do? 3.What question can you ask yourself to think of helpful suggestions for your friends? 4.Which would you prefer to do first when friends ask for advice—listen and check if they really want advice, or simply tell them that everything will be OK? Why? (Please give two reasons) 【答案】1.It’s human nature to want to offer solutions. 2.They often really only want someone to listen to them. 3.What would I do if I were to experience the same thing? 4.I prefer to listen and check if they really want advice first. First, friends often just need to talk instead of advice. Second, simply saying “Everything will be OK” is not useful for them. 【导语】本文探讨朋友求助时的应对方式,指出人们本能想给建议,但朋友常只是需要倾听,要先判断对方需求,真诚回应。 1.根据“It’s human nature to want to offer solutions when someone comes to you with a problem.”可知,当有人带着问题来找你时,人的本能是想要提供解决办法。故填It’s human nature to want to offer solutions. 2.根据“In fact, friends often really only want someone to listen to them.”可知,朋友通常其实只是希望有人倾听他们。故填They often really only want someone to listen to them. 3.根据“You can ask yourself ‘What would I do if I were to experience the same thing?’”可知,你可以问自己“如果我遇到同样的事情,我会怎么做?”来为朋友想出有用的建议。故填What would I do if I were to experience the same thing? 4.根据“It’s important to try to work out whether they’re actually asking for advice, or simply wanting to talk over whatever is going round in their head.”以及“saying that ‘Everything will be OK’ is not actually useful for your friend”可知,我会先倾听并确认他们是否真的想要建议,因为第一,朋友常常只是需要倾诉而非建议;第二,直接说“一切都会好的”对朋友没有实际帮助。故填I prefer to listen and check if they really want advice first. First, friends often just need to talk instead of advice. Second, simply saying “Everything will be OK” is not useful for them. 阅读短文,根据短文内容回答问题。 Imagine yourself sitting in a quiet reading corner at home, tuning out (不理睬) the world around you and lost in a story. You read the summary on the book cover, immediately get interested, and now you’re halfway through a super interesting book. These days, paper books, e-books and audio books are three popular reading forms. And a hot discussion has started among readers: Does the way you read affect your experience of the book? As we all know, reading is very good for us. It practises many functions of our brain, such as attention, reasoning, reading skills, memory and understanding. Reading can also help us improve our communication ability, expand our vocabulary, and even make us more emotionally intelligent and better at understanding others. No matter which reading way we choose, we can get these benefits. Let’s first talk about reading with our eyes—paper books and e-books. They have a big advantage: helping us remember information better. When we see the words directly, we can pay closer attention to the content. What’s more, with paper books, it’s easy to look back to find parts we missed, especially when our minds wander, which is common for most readers. E-books are also convenient because they can store many books in one device, making it easy to read anywhere. On the other hand, audio books have their own advantages. Put on your headphones, and you can escape from daily life. The story becomes vivid, just like watching a movie in your mind. From a scientific point of view, listening to audio books can help us feel more empathy. We can hear the narrator’s emotions, understand the tone and intonation better, and this uses different parts of our brain. It makes the story more interesting and imaginative, so we may enjoy it more. However, audio books also have a disadvantage: it’s harder to go back and listen to parts again if we miss something. In conclusion, paper books, e-books and audio books all have their own advantages. Next time you want to read a book, why not think about which way suits you best? Choosing the right way to read can make your literary experience more wonderful. 1.What are the three popular reading forms these days? 2.What big advantage do paper books and e-books have? 3.What is the disadvantage of listening to audio books? 4.Which kind of books do you prefer to read, paper books, e-books or audio books? Why? (Please give two reasons.) 【答案】1.Paper books, e-books, audio books. 2.Helping us remember information better. 3.It’s harder to go back and listen to parts again if we miss something. 4.I prefer to read paper books. First, they help me focus better on the content. Second, it’s easy to look back to find parts we missed. 【导语】本文介绍纸质书、电子书、有声书三种阅读形式的优缺点,指出阅读有益,建议选择适合自己的阅读方式以提升阅读体验。 1.根据第二段“These days, paper books, e-books and audio books are three popular reading forms.”可知,如今,纸质书、电子书和有声书是三种常见的阅读方式。故填Paper books, e-books, audio books. 2.根据第四段“Let’s first talk about reading with our eyes—paper books and e-books. They have a big advantage: helping us remember information better.”可知,纸质书籍和电子书有一个共有的优势:能帮助我们更好地记住信息。故填Helping us remember information better.。 3.根据第五段“However, audio books also have a disadvantage: it’s harder to go back and listen to parts again if we miss something.”可知,有声书也有一个缺点:如果我们遗漏了某些内容,就很难再回过头来重新聆听那些部分了。故填It’s harder to go back and listen to parts again if we miss something. 4.句意:您更喜欢阅读哪种类型的书籍?纸质书、电子书还是有声书?为什么?(请给出两个原因。) 开放性回答,合理即可。故填I prefer to read paper books. First, they help me focus better on the content. Second, it’s easy to look back to find parts we missed. 阅读短文,根据短文内容回答问题。 Audiobooks (有声书) may have become our usual companions, whether we’re jogging outside or relaxing at home. Yet, some people wonder: Can we actually learn from them? In short, it depends. The type of literature you choose really matters. A story is much easier to follow by listening. But for school books or articles with lots of new ideas and facts, reading them on paper is usually better. This way, you’re likely to understand and remember more. Audiobooks are great for picking up facts. But if you need to understand difficult ideas, they are not always the best choice. Why? Because it’s hard to build connections between ideas through listening. When you read a book, your eyes can quickly go back to any confusing part. It’s like your brain and eyes work together to help you understand. With audiobooks, this is harder. For example, if you miss an important sentence, you have to listen again and again to find it. Because it takes more effort, people often just keep listening instead of stopping to clean up what they didn’t understand. What’s the result? In books, different ideas are often connected. When you read, you can easily see these connections on the page. But when you listen, you might miss how one idea leads to another. The narrator’s voice can also greatly affect your listening experience. Some listeners find that certain voices make the experience less enjoyable, no matter how good the content (内容) is. For example, a flat voice can pull your attention away or make you work harder to understand. Other voices might feel just right and make the story clearer and more enjoyable. Next time you can’t decide whether to listen or read, first think about your purpose. If it’s just for fun or to get some simple information, then listening is a great choice—just press play. But if your goal is to really learn and understand, especially when the material is hard to understand, reading carefully is often the better way. Words on a page let you think slowly and go back easily when needed. 1.Which type of literature is easier to follow by listening? 2.Why are audiobooks not the best choice for understanding difficult ideas? 3.What can pull your attention away when you listen to audiobooks? 4.Imagine you need to read a novel, would you like to read it in print or listen to it as an audiobook? Why? (Please give two reasons.) 【答案】1.A story. 2.Because it’s hard to build connections between ideas through listening. 3.A flat voice. 4.I would like to read the novel in print. Because I can pause details freely to better understand the story, and it also lets me build my own mental images of the plot. 【导语】本文说明有声读物适合快速获取信息、理解故事,受朗读者嗓音影响,而阅读更利于理解复杂内容、掌握知识。 1.根据“A story is much easier to follow by listening.”可知,听故事更容易跟上情节。故填A story. 2.根据“Because it’s hard to build connections between ideas through listening. ”可知,通过聆听很难在不同的想法之间建立联系,所以有声读物不是最好的选择。故填Because it’s hard to build connections between ideas through listening. 3.根据“For example, a flat voice can pull your attention away or make you work harder to understand. ”可知,平淡无奇的声音可能会分散你的注意力当你在听有声读物时。故填A flat voice. 4.本题为开放性题目,答案不唯一,合理即可。故填I would like to read the novel in print. Because I can pause details freely to better understand the story, and it also lets me build my own mental images of the plot. Have you ever bought something without knowing what’s inside? That’s the fun of blind boxes—small, unopened packages that hide collectable toys or figures (人偶). You don’t know which one you’ll get until you open it. It’s just this kind of surprising joy that makes blind boxes so popular among teenagers and young adults. Each blind box belongs to a themed series, such as lovely animals, cartoon characters, or cute food items. All the boxes look the same from the outside, but inside lies a surprise. Some figures are common, while others are uncommon and hard to find. Many collectors feel excited every time they open a box, hoping to get that special figure they’ve been searching for. However, blind boxes are not just about the toys—they’re also about the experience. Collectors often meet and exchange figures in stores and share their excitement together. Some even record unboxing videos and post them on social media. For many, collecting blind boxes becomes a way to express creativity and personality. They decorate their rooms with their favorite figures, design small shelves for display, or use them in art projects. Through this shared interest, a small and friendly community is formed. But the excitement can become addictive (上瘾的), which is the main problem of buying blind boxes. Since you never know what’s inside, it’s easy to keep buying “just one more” box, hoping to find the uncommon one. Some people end up spending more than they planned. That’s why it’s important to set a budget (预算) and always remind yourself that collecting should bring joy, not pressure and waste. Blind boxes have become an important part of modern pop culture, combining (融合) art, design, and curiosity together in one small package. Whether you collect them or simply watch unboxing videos online, they remind us of the joy of discovery. Sometimes, the best part of life is the unknown— the little surprises waiting to be opened. As long as we open them with care, patience, and self-control, blind boxes can bring fun and creativity to our everyday lives. 1.What makes blind boxes popular among young adults? 2.According to the writer, what are blind boxes about? 3.What is the main problem of buying blind boxes? 4.Is it necessary to set a budget before buying blind boxes? Why? (Please give two reasons.) 【答案】1.The surprising joy of not knowing which collectable toy or figure you’ll get until you open it. 2.They are not just about the toys, but also about the experience (of collecting, exchanging figures and sharing excitement with others). 3.The excitement can become addictive, and some people may end up spending more than they planned. 4.Yes, it is. First, because the excitement of buying blind boxes can be addictive, a budget can prevent people from spending more than they planned. Second, a budget helps make sure that collecting blind boxes brings joy rather than pressure and waste. 【导语】本文主要介绍了盲盒的流行原因、内涵与社交体验,同时指出盲盒容易让人上瘾的问题,并给出理性消费的建议,最后点明盲盒在现代流行文化中的意义。 1.根据第一段“It’s just this kind of surprising joy that makes blind boxes so popular among teenagers and young adults.”以及“You don’t know which one you’ll get until you open it.”可知,盲盒在年轻人中流行的原因是打开之前不知道会得到什么,这种意外的惊喜感吸引了他们。故填The surprising joy of not knowing which collectable toy or figure you’ll get until you open it. 2.根据第三段“However, blind boxes are not just about the toys—they’re also about the experience.”可知,盲盒不仅关乎玩具本身,也关乎收藏、交流与分享的体验。故填They are not just about the toys, but also about the experience (of collecting, exchanging figures and sharing excitement with others). 3.根据第四段“But the excitement can become addictive, which is the main problem of buying blind boxes.”以及“Some people end up spending more than they planned.”可知,购买盲盒的主要问题是这种兴奋感容易让人上瘾,导致人们超支消费。故填The excitement can become addictive, and some people may end up spending more than they planned. 4.根据第四段“That’s why it’s important to set a budget and always remind yourself that collecting should bring joy, not pressure and waste.”可知,有必要做预算,原因有二:①盲盒的兴奋感容易让人上瘾,预算能避免超支;②预算能确保收藏盲盒带来的是快乐而非压力与浪费。故填Yes, it is. First, because the excitement of buying blind boxes can be addictive, a budget can prevent people from spending more than they planned. Second, a budget helps make sure that collecting blind boxes brings joy rather than pressure and waste. 阅读短文,根据短文内容回答问题。 We all have our eye on the prize. That one big goal drives you to get up every day. For some, it’s a number, such as scores or pay rise, etc. For others, it’s a qualitative goal like being happy and satisfied every day. The thing about having the final goal in mind is that you have to make stops along the way, whether you like it or not. And the smaller prize is as important as the final prize because you have to pass it along the way. Celebrating the small victories gives you a sense of achievement. For getting to the end goal, you need to set milestones (阶段性目标) for yourself. So you can both check your progress and celebrate that you are one step closer to your final goal. The path to your success will shape who you are. How you deal with problems and move forward influences how you see yourself and how others see you. Also, once you are close to your final goal, the path you took is your personal history. Better to mark it with a series of celebrations than a boring storyline. Breaking the final goal into smaller milestones makes the journey seem more manageable. If you task yourself with a marathon overnight, it seems like a challenging goal—plus, how do you get there? However, saying you want to start from 3km is a little more manageable. That way, if the first milestone isn’t met, then you can adjust (调整) your way for the second quarter. If it’s so important to celebrate the small victories, then how do you get there? You should start out with your final goal in mind and work backwards to know what milestones you want to hit and when. Here are a few steps when setting your milestones. The first step is to list them clearly. If your milestones are unclear, how will you know when you have reached them? Besides, set quantitative (定量的) goals and stick to them. Quantitative is much easier to follow. And remember to record your progress. If a milestone isn’t met, find out why and adjust your way. So what are you waiting for? It’s time to celebrate! 1.Why is the smaller prize as important as the final prize? 2.What makes the journey to the final goal seem more manageable? 3.What is the first step when setting milestones? 4.Would you like to celebrate small wins? Why or why not? (Please give two reasons.) 【答案】1.Because you have to pass it along the way. 2.Breaking the final goal into smaller milestones. 3.To list them clearly. 4.Yes, I would. Because celebrating small wins gives me a sense of achievement and makes the long journey more enjoyable and manageable. 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章论述了在追求终极目标的过程中,庆祝阶段性小胜利的重要性。庆祝小胜能带来成就感,使漫长的成功之路更可控、更愉悦,并能塑造个人经历和形象。文章还给出了设定阶段性目标的具体步骤。 1.根据文章第一段最后一句“And the smaller prize is as important as the final prize because you have to pass it along the way.”可知,阶段性小目标之所以和终极目标一样重要,是因为在通往终极目标的路上必须经过它。故填Because you have to pass it along the way. 2.根据文章第四段第一句“Breaking the final goal into smaller milestones makes the journey seem more manageable.”可知,将终极目标分解成更小的阶段性目标,能使通往目标的旅程显得更可控。故填Breaking the final goal into smaller milestones. 3.根据文章第五段“The first step is to list them clearly.”可知,设定阶段性目标的第一步是清晰地列出它们。故填To list them clearly. 4.本题为开放性问答,要求回答是否愿意庆祝小胜利并给出两个理由。答案需观点明确,理由充分。示例给出了肯定的回答,并从“获得成就感”和“使旅程更愉悦、更可控”两个角度说明了原因。故填Yes, I would. Because celebrating small wins gives me a sense of achievement and makes the long journey more enjoyable and manageable. There’s a lot of fear around spending time alone. Alone time can make people really bored. Worse, some articles and studies warn us about the dangers of loneliness—one in 2017 says loneliness is as bad as smoking 15 cigarettes a day. Another in 2023 presents the risks of chronic (长期的) loneliness, such as increased risks of disease. However, not all alone time is the same. There’s chronic loneliness—and there’s solitude (独处). One is a serious problem. The other is a skill we must develop. Chronic loneliness happens when there is unhappiness about the state of having few friends or a sense of social isolation (隔离). But we do so many activities alone that don’t come with the dangers of chronic loneliness—reading a book, doing an art project or cooking a meal. This kind of positive alone time is called solitude, which is a state of being free of the requirements of others. While chronic loneliness is bad for our health, solitude can be the opposite. Yet we don’t know how to welcome it, and we often avoid it. We sometimes stay in bad relationships so as not to be alone. This isn’t surprising. One of the main parts of chronic loneliness is social isolation. According to John Cacioppo, a professor at the University of Chicago, loneliness is a biological sign similar to hunger or thirst. When we are in a state of painful loneliness, it is our bodies that give us information to find social support or social ties. However, being more in touch with our loneliness sensors helps us use the healthy kind of alone time. You wouldn’t be ashamed of needing water when thirsty, so why should you feel bad about feeling lonely? What’s more, we might have more control over how connected we feel with others than we think. According to a Yale’s study, if you can feel connected with loved ones even when you’re not around them, you can still feel socially connected. I am a believer in finding your best solitude style. I encourage those who don’t like being alone to try it out once. You may find yourself looking for it again and again. Taking a hike in the woods alone allows you to look at nature more closely than hiking with a friend. When you save a meaningful moment for just you, you get to be the only maker of your experiences. 1.When does chronic loneliness happen? 2.According to the passage, what is solitude? 3.What is the benefit of being more in touch with our loneliness sensors? 4.Do you think it is necessary for you to make time for solitude? Why or why not? (Please give two reasons. ) 【答案】1.When there is unhappiness about the state of having few friends or a sense of social isolation. 2.A state of being free of the requirements of others. 3.Helping us use the healthy kind of alone time. 4.Yes. First, solitude allows us to focus on personal interests like reading or art. Second, it helps us develop independence and self-awareness. 【导语】本文主要探讨了独处与长期孤独的区别,并强调独处对身心健康的积极意义。 1.根据“Chronic loneliness happens when there is unhappiness about the state of having few friends or a sense of social isolation (隔离).”可知,当人们对朋友少或社交孤立的状态感到不快时,就会产生长期孤独。故填When there is unhappiness about the state of having few friends or a sense of social isolation. 2.根据“This kind of positive alone time is called solitude, which is a state of being free of the requirements of others.”可知,这种积极的独处时光被称为独处,即一种摆脱他人要求的状态。故填A state of being free of the requirements of others. 3.根据“However, being more in touch with our loneliness sensors helps us use the healthy kind of alone time.”可知,更了解自身的孤独感有助于我们利用健康的独处时间。故填Helping us use the healthy kind of alone time. 4.本题是开放性试题,答案言之有理即可,参考答案为Yes. First, solitude allows us to focus on personal interests like reading or art. Second, it helps us develop independence and self-awareness. 阅读短文,根据短文内容回答问题。 While many families across China reunited to celebrate the Spring Festival, Zhao Deling and Sheng Mingfen stayed on duty at the Xiannyu Cave management station of the Dashahe Nature Reserve (大沙河自然保护区) in Guizhou province. The hard-working couple, both forest guards, are responsible for nearly 467 hectares of protected areas, ensuring the safety of wild animals and plants. The Dashahe Nature Reserve was set up in 1984 and became a national-level nature reserve in May 2018. Covering an area of 26,990 hectares, it is home to endangered species (物种) such as the Tonkin langur. Zhao has served as a forest guard in the reserve for many years. His wife, Sheng, joined the team in 2020. Every day, they start work early in the morning. One guards an important checkpoint to keep out anyone who’s not allowed in, while the other patrols (巡逻) the forest. Their tasks include recording wildlife activities and clearing overgrown plants around signs and infrared cameras used for monitoring and protection. “From early morning to midnight, there’s little time to rest,” said Zhao. “Most visitors leave when they are told the area is protected, but some visitors ignore (忽视) the rules, so the patrols must continue.” A full round-trip patrol usually takes more than three hours. Loneliness is another big challenge, as the main part of the protected area is far from other people. While on patrol, the couple face non-stop uncertainty—never knowing what wild animals might endanger their lives. Even though the hours are long and the work is lonely, the couple find meaning in their day-to-day duties. “Watching the changes along our way makes time pass easily. You can notice many small changes day by day,” Zhao said. Having known each other since their early teens, Zhao and Sheng have set up a family and raised two children. During the Spring Festival, their daughters visited them for a family get-together. “Maybe the station is not as comfortable as the house in the village, but once our family is together, happiness fills every corner of the checkpoint,” Sheng said. 1.When was Dashahe Nature Reserve set up? 2.Why must the patrols continue? 3.How long does a full round-trip patrol usually take? 4.What do you think of the couple? Why do you think so? (Please give two reasons.) 【答案】1.In 1984. 2.Because some visitors ignore the rules. 3.A full round-trip patrol usually takes more than three hours. 4.They are hard-working, brave and responsible, because they are responsible for nearly 467 hectares of protected areas, ensuring the safety of wild animals and plants and while on patrol, they face non-stop uncertainty—never knowing what wild animals might endanger their lives. 【导语】本文主要介绍了赵德林和盛明芬夫妇在大沙河自然保护区做护林员的故事。 1.根据文中“The Dashahe Nature Reserve was set up in 1984”可知,大沙河自然保护区成立于1984年,故填In 1984. 2.根据文中“but some visitors ignore (忽视) the rules, so the patrols must continue.”可知,有些游客无视这些规定,因此巡逻必须继续,故填Because some visitors ignore the rules. 3.根据文中“A full round-trip patrol usually takes more than three hours.”可知,一次完整的往返巡逻通常需要三个多小时,故填A full round-trip patrol usually takes more than three hours. 4.根据文中“The hard-working couple, both forest guards, are responsible for nearly 467 hectares of protected areas, ensuring the safety of wild animals and plants.”和“While on patrol, the couple face non-stop uncertainty—never knowing what wild animals might endanger their lives.”可知,这对夫妇是勤劳的、勇敢的和负责任的,因为他们负责近467公顷的保护区,确保野生动植物的安全,在巡逻时,这对夫妇面临着无休止的不确定性——永远不知道哪些野生动物可能会危及他们的生命,故填They are hard-working, brave and responsible, because they are responsible for nearly 467 hectares of protected areas, ensuring the safety of wild animals and plants and while on patrol, they face non-stop uncertainty—never knowing what wild animals might endanger their lives. “Lying down” (also known as tang ping), has become a hot word among young Chinese people these days. The idea of low material needs and being willing to accept whatever life gives them is described as a “lying down” lifestyle. Some young people complain that to raise a child needs too much money and they often get into a fight with their family. At the same time, the rising living costs including food and housing have pushed them so hard that they could hardly breathe. Some want to lie down because their tiring jobs, competition with peers, as well as personal relationships force them to run away. On the other hand, with the great improvement of living conditions, it is true that some Chinese youth today have lost the spirit of fighting hard for a better life. “I stay at home, sleep and watch TV series, and I’m pleased with what I have now. Actually, there are many people around me who value happiness and freedom most,” said Daisy, who left her job two weeks ago. No wonder that some young people would choose to live a simple way instead of always following the good quality of fighting hard. Interestingly, most young people, who are “big fans” of the “lying down” lifestyle, point out that they only accept a temporary (暂时的) lying down as a short rest. In fact, lying down is not totally comfortable for them. Most young people who lie down always regard it as a lack of ambition (抱负) and feel ashamed about it. “Young people have both ambition and confusion about their future, but most of us have refused to waste chances and challenges,” a college student said. 1.What is a “lying down” lifestyle? 2.What are the factors which cause young people to lie down? 3.What do most young people regard the “lying down” lifestyle as? 4.Will you choose “lying down” lifestyle? Why or why not? (At least 2 reasons) 【答案】1.It is a lifestyle of low material needs and willingness to accept whatever life gives. 2.High costs of raising a child and living, tiring jobs, peer competition, relationship problems, and loss of the spirit of striving. 3.They regard it as a temporary short rest and a lack of ambition, feeling ashamed about it. 4.No, I won’t. First, striving helps me realize my value and avoid missing growth opportunities. Second, being proactive brings more sense of achievement. (开放性试题,答案合理即可) 【导语】本文探讨了当下中国年轻人中流行的“躺平”生活方式,分析了它的定义、成因,以及年轻人对它的真实态度——大多数人仅将其视为暂时的休息,内心仍认为这是缺乏抱负的表现,并不会真正放弃奋斗。 1.根据“The idea of low material needs and being willing to accept whatever life gives them is described as a ‘lying down’ lifestyle.”可知,“躺平”是一种低物质需求、接受生活所予的生活方式。 故填It is a lifestyle of low material needs and willingness to accept whatever life gives. 2.根据“Some young people complain that to raise a child needs too much money… rising living costs… tiring jobs, competition with peers, as well as personal relationships force them to run away… some youth today have lost the spirit of fighting hard”可知,原因包括养娃成本高、生活成本上涨、劳累的工作、同辈竞争、人际关系问题,以及部分年轻人失去奋斗精神。 故填High costs of raising a child and living, tiring jobs, peer competition, relationship problems, and loss of the spirit of striving. 3.根据“most young people… only accept a temporary lying down as a short rest… regard it as a lack of ambition and feel ashamed”可知,多数年轻人认为“躺平”只是暂时的休息,也认为这是缺乏抱负的表现。 故填They regard it as a temporary short rest and a lack of ambition, feeling ashamed about it. 4.开放性试题,答案合理即可。参考答案为No, I won’t. First, striving helps me realize my value and avoid missing growth opportunities. Second, being proactive brings more sense of achievement. 试卷第1页,共3页 试卷第1页,共3页 学科网(北京)股份有限公司 $
