If you have, then you probably already know how it feels like losing your mind. In her extensive grief research, Mary O’ Connor explains that when we experience a profound loss, our brains have to begin a very long process of rewiring all of the pathways and predictions they made based on a loved one’s presence, gradually switching over to an understanding of their 1 . It can take years for our bodies to make sense of the loss as we deal with 2 yearning (想念) while adapting to a new way of life. And it isn’t just our brain chemistry turned upside down, but our whole bodies too. Research shows that grief increases our heart rate and blood pressure, makes us more prone to heart attacks, raises the risk for other chronic diseases like diabetes and 3 to our loved ones is protective against all sorts of external stresses in everyday life. But when they are gone, we are more likely to feel 4 to what life throws at us, causing a flood of stress hormones that affect our immune system. This should encourage us to give our grief the space and support it 5 rather than shutting it away and avoiding it. Too often, we don’t know how to talk about grief, how to support the bodies of those grieving or how to show 6 for ourselves and each other. In many ways, the idea that grief progresses in stages towards an endpoint is deeply 7 . In reality, grief moves in cycles and is never “done”. In the shifting landscape of grief, what we need is solid ground on which to learn how to function anew without intrusion (侵入) from the 8 or our busy, indoor life. Time outside promotes mindfulness, allowing the griever to 9 themselves in the calming sense of nature. Getting outside often dials down the feelings of despair that grief ramps up, even if just for a short while. There isn’t yet much research on nature-based support for grieving people specifically, but there is a lot of research on the physiological benefits of connecting with nature that can usefully 10 many of the impacts of grief. Time outside lowers our blood pressure and the production of stress hormones, and decreases the risk of heart disease.

He grew up in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) as a priest’s kid. In fact, it was visiting the sick with his father that 1 him to become a doctor in the first place. The country has 2 more than two decades of conflict, and Congolese women have suffered worst. Warring for control of the country’s gold and precious mineral deposits, rebel groups are cruelly attacking the region’s women. During the last 3 the DRC has actually been described as “the rape (强暴) capital of the world”. One study found that 48 women are raped every hour in the country. One man stands 4 against this hurt, and has done so for more than 20 years. He first set up the Panzi hospital — 5 made of tents — in 1998. After losing the hospital the same year in the crossfire of the Second Congo War, Mukwege rebuilt the following year. Since then, Panzi hospital has grown to become a major health 6 . There, Mukwege reportedly cares for more than 3,500 women a year, sometimes 7 as many as 10 operations a day. Last year while 8 in the hospital, Mukwege heard the news that he, along with Nadia Murad, had been awarded the 2018 Nobel Peace Prize. The prize centers on acknowledging “their efforts to end the use of sexual violence as a weapon of war.” He, a doctor, and she an Iraqi human rights activist who suffered in the same way that so many of Mukwege’s patients have, should inspire everyone to take a(n) 9 for peace. For Mukwege, “When I see how strong women are, all my motivation comes from them.” Winning the Peace Prize could be the first step toward an end to 10 against women. 主题02 人与社会 Passage 1 (24-25高二下·上海松江区第四中学·期中) Directions: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box.

But does it actually help you get things done, or does it make you less effective? To some people, the advantages of multitasking seem obvious. If you can actually do two or more things at one time, that clearly saves time. It might also make you feel productive, which can in turn make you happy. However, a growing body of research shows that multitasking is not as 1 as it appears. It turns out that when most people multitask, they switch back and forth between 2 on two or more tasks instead of focusing on more than one thing at a time. But mental energy that could be spent working will be 3 if you change your focus constantly. It also causes you to take longer and make more mistakes, thus 4 stress. People who try to multitask often end up feeling more anxious and less 5 than people who don’t. There are some exceptions to the no-multitasking rule. A very small group of people — about two percent of the population — 6 at multitasking. These people, called supertaskers, are able to work on several things at once without their performance suffering. But experts caution: supertaskers are very rare. The 7 of people who think multitasking makes them more productive are fooling themselves. If you do want to multitask, productivity experts 8 doing it carefully. Pair a mentally challenging task with a 9 task that you don’t have to think about. For example, you could prepare a meal while talking on the phone. But when it’s important to do something well, do only that one thing. And 10 be cautious about doing anything else while you’re driving. Multitasking may sound productive, but it actually works against the goal of getting things done. Doing things one at a time usually helps people produce better work and get things done more efficiently.

Still, you might be one of the millions who watched the 1 video of a fitness trainer’s well-crafted morning routine, now with over 741 million views on the social media. While many have assumed the video is marketing for a certain product, it’s understandable to be fascinated by 2 at other people’s habits. “For better or for worse, it is in our nature to compare ourselves to others,” says Raphael Wald. “It is difficult for us as people to appreciate our successes without using others as a 3 tape.” Many competing feelings can arise during social comparison: Envy, admiration, motivation and fear of missing out. But often, shame and inadequacy 4 up to the top. The video is the latest in a series of morning habits shared on social media, all gaining millions of views. This fascination with others’ routines is nothing new. People have been 5 on how famous, successful figures spend their mornings for centuries. Benjamin Franklin wrote about his morning routine in his autobiography in the late 1700s, describing how he woke up at 5 a.m., set intentions for the day, read, and studied. In his 1854 book Walden, Henry David Thoreau discussed going for a swim during the “awakening hour.” These old-fashioned 6 have even aroused interest now; people in the present day are posting about their experiences trying, for instance, “The daily routine of the original Benjamin Franklin.” Mornings are a “ 7 ” experience, says Ben Bernstein. Everyone wakes up, gets dressed, and usually eats breakfast. Then, they go about their day, which is more 8 . “There’s a moment in time where people are doing similar things,” he says. It can feel predictable, so it’s often appealing to see how others spend that time. “We’re actually kind of living 9 through that person: If we have a routine and we follow these steps, then life can be smooth and free of stress,” Bernstein says. Research shows that morning routines can ease stress and increase energy. But routines should be tailored to your needs and lifestyle, says Dr. Alex Dimitriu. There’s no “secret sauce” for morning habits that will 10 help you become like someone you admire. Videos may be fun to watch, but Dimitriu urges taking them with “a grain of salt.” Passage 3 (24-25高二下·上海宜川中学·期中) Directions: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box.

Li Shiyan, a big IT company’s Al engineer, said that by leveraging the real-time calculation and animation technologies offered by Xiling — the company’s digital avatar platform — the production cost of virtual clothing has been reduced 2 , and production periods shortened from more than one month to just a week. Li noted that an increasing number of brands are looking to use virtual beings in livestreaming and other marketing campaigns, which is expected to help enterprises reduce at least 50 percent of 3 costs by cutting spending on-brick-and-mortar livestreaming locations, hardware and hiring real human anchors. “The virtual human industry is still in an early stage, and there are some challenges, such as how to produce low-cost digital 4 , and how to make digital humans interact with real people more naturally,” Li said. And 5 these issues relies on iteration of technologies such as natural language processing and computer 6 , Li said, adding that the company will continue to pour capital and manpower into the digital human industry. The size of China’s virtual human market is forecast to reach 270 billion yuan by 2030, according to an industry report released by Qbit-AI, an industry services platform focusing on AI and other cutting-edge technology. According to experts, the fashion landscape is rapidly expanding its virtual horizon to prepare for a future populated by digital avatars, and the most 7 way for fashion brands to 8 with them is by dressing them in their latest collections. “The application of virtual humans in the fashion field has 9 advantages. Holding virtual fashion shows doesn’t just mean moving real-world shows online; more importantly, we can utilize digital space to 10 our interpretation of fashion and imagination for what is possible,” said Chen Duan, director of the Digital Economy Integration Innovation Development Center at the Central University of Finance and Economics. 主题03 人与自然 Passage 1 (24-25高二下·上海嘉定区中光高级中学·期中) Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box.

It’s a special spot where she feels at peace, 1 by nature’s beauty. Her little cottage near Loch Affric isn’t just a place to stay; it’s where her heart feels most at home, away from the noise and rush of cities. It’s her perfect spot for writing. In this quiet part of the world, Ava wakes up to the cheerful music of the birds and the 2 light of the morning sun streaming in. She writes her stories on an old, reliable typewriter. Everything she sees around her, from the local wildlife to the delicate 3 made by frost on the glass, captures her imagination and becomes part of her writing. For Ava, 4 and stories don’t require a long journey. They are right outside her door, in the forest, by the lake, and in the mountains. She takes these experiences and weaves them into her work, helping others see the beauty and importance of the 5 world. In the afternoons, Ava often goes for walks. The quiet paths by the lake and the rustling (沙沙作响的) leaves are like friends, sharing their secrets and 6 her next piece. This connection to nature is what makes her writing so special. When the day starts to fade, Ava finds 7 and comfort in her cottage. The fire and the taste of hot tea are her evening 8 . She reflects on the day’s writing and gathers her thoughts for the next day. Although she enjoys being alone, she doesn’t feel 9 . The local community is friendly and 10 , and their histories enrich her own stories, adding a sense of time to her environmental messages.

At the beginning of 2025, multiple large wildfires burning around Los Angeles had tens of thousands of residents 1 as the fires showed no sign of slowing their spread.   The spark that caused the fires is under investigation, but the risk of wildfires 2 has been extremely high in Southern California. January is typically the rainy season in Los Angeles, but this winter, rainfall has been scarce. Besides, the region’s seasonal winds created 100 mph gusts in some areas. These warm, dry winds spread the hot ashes that spark new flames and can make it more difficult for firefighters to   3 fires.   Wildfires can burn millions of acres of land at shockingly fast speeds, 4 everything in their paths. These rolling flames travel up to 14 miles an hour, which converts to about a four-minute-mile pace, and can 5 the average human in minutes.   That’s why it’s critical to understand how wildfires get started and how to stop them. Natural or man-made, three conditions must be 6 for wildfire to burn: fuel, oxygen, and a heat source. Firefighters call these three elements the fire triangle.   Firefighters battle blazes by depriving them of one or more of the fire triangle 7 . One traditional method is to put out existing fires with water and spray fire retardants (阻燃剂). Firefighters also sometimes work in teams to clear vegetation from the land around a fire and eventually 8 it of fuel. They may also employ controlled burning, creating   9 breaks to stop a wildfire. This method involves fighting fire with fire. These prescribed — and controlled — fires remove undergrowth, brush, and litter from a forest, depriving an otherwise raging wildfire of fuel.   Although they can be dangerous to humans, naturally occurring wildfires play an integral role in nature. By burning dead or decaying matter, they can return otherwise trapped nutrients to the soil. Besides, wildfires 10 forest canopies (树冠) and undergrowth, allowing sunlight to reach the forest floor and a new generation of seedlings to grow. In fact, some trees, like sequoias, rely on fire for their seeds to even open. 主题01 人与自我 Passage 1 (24-25高二下·上海七宝中学·期中) Directions: In this section, fill the blanks using the words in the box.

Like any skill, it can be learned as long as you have the determination to learn, and give yourself 1 practice. People often fear that they are the only ones for whom writing is unbearably difficult. Such people typically say, “I am not any good at writing.” Often, the result of this attitude is that people try to avoid writing. It becomes a(n) 2 prediction: their writing fails chiefly because they have brainwashed themselves into believing they don’t have the “natural talent”. Many people find it difficult to do the intense, active thinking that clear writing 3 . It is frustrating to discover how much of a challenge it is to 4 thoughts and feelings from one’s hand onto the page. But writing is not an automatic process. For almost everyone, competent writing comes from plain hard work-determination, sweat, and 5 battle. Additionally, many people 6 believe that writing should flow in a straight line from the writer’s head onto the written page. But a finished paper seldom comes out in the first draft. The truth is writing is a process of discovery involving a series of steps, which are very often a zigzag journey. For example, Diane Woods had been assigned to write about an annoyance in everyday life. She did not know what specific annoyances she would choose; instead, she just began writing about them in general. One of those annoyances was traffic, which seemed 7 , so she began putting down details that came to her. One detail was the traffic she had to deal with in going to the movies. That made her think of the traffic in the parking lot at the theater 8 . At that point, it dawned on her that, instead of traffic, moviegoing itself was an annoyance. She switched direction in midstream and began writing down ideas and details about moviegoing. The point is writing is often a process of continuing discovery. You may be working on a(n) 9 sentence and realize suddenly that it could be your concluding thought. Writers frequently do not know their exact destination as they begin to write. Very often they discover the direction and 10 of a paper during the process of writing. Passage 2 (24-25高二下·上海闵行区六校联考·期中) Directions: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box.

The researchers asked college students to rate their feelings on a   1 from “unhappy” to “very happy” and compared the results with academic and social outcomes. Though the “very happy” participants had the best social lives, they 2 worse in school than those who were merely “happy”. The researchers then examined a data set from another study that rated college freshman’s “cheerfulness” and 3 their income nearly two decades later. They found that the most cheerful were not the highest earners. That distinction once again went to the second-highest group, which rated their cheerfulness as “above average”. As with everything in life, happiness has its trade-offs. Pursuing happiness to the 4 of other goals — known as psychological hedonism (享乐主义) — not only is in vain, but may also give you a life where you do not reach your full potential, where you are unwilling to take risks, where you choose temporary pleasures over 5 experiences that give life meaning. The way to understand the study above is not to deny that happiness is good; rather, it is to remember that a little bit of unhappiness has benefits. When I talk with people about their fear of negative outcomes in life, their true source of fear, in many cases, 6 on how they will feel about having failed, not about the consequences of failure itself. This is similar to the way discomfort with uncertainty causes more anxiety than 7 bad news. To avoid these bad feelings, people give up all kinds of opportunities that involve the possibility of failure. However, bringing good things into your life, whether love or career success, usually involves risk. Risk does not, of course, 8 make us happy. A risky life will very likely bring disappointment, but it can bring greater rewards than a life played safe, as the studies suggested. None of this is to say that we are foolish for wanting to be happy. On the contrary, the desire for happiness is natural and normal. However, making the quest for positive feelings your highest or only goal is a 9 life strategy. Endless happiness is impossible to achieve, and doing so sacrifices many of the elements of a good life. As the Canadian-American psychologist Paul Bloom wrote, “It’s the 10 we choose that affords the most opportunity for pleasure, meaning, and personal growth.” 主题02 人与社会 Passage 1 (24-25高二下·上海静安区新中高级中学·期中) Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box.

Nurtured in a Hunan village, Tan’s artistic 1 stemmed from Ghost Opera-a ritual heritage blending Taoism, Buddhism, and nature worship. His childhood dream to become a shaman who could “ 2 the wind’s whispers and decode stone-leaf dialogues” shaped his artistic vision through spiritual 3 to the natural world. A life-changing moment came at age 16 when Tan heard a symphony. The emotional power of Beethoven’s Fifth Symphony by the Philadelphia Orchestra deeply moved him. 4 to master this art form, he studied at China’s Central Conservatory of Music and later in New York. Two decades later, he was invited to work with the Philadelphia Orchestra, bringing his journey full circle. Tan’s music often draws on the sounds of nature. One of his 5 works, The Map, features unconventional instruments such as water bowls, stones, and rice paper. In Passacaglia: Secret of Wind and Birds, Tan seamlessly blends the sounds of wind and birds with orchestral instruments. This creates a rich experience that evokes the dynamic interplay between humans and the natural world. Tan is also 6 to preserving China’s musical heritage. Folk music and cultural elements 7 in many of his works. He has also brought a modern 8 ” to ancient instruments, like the suona. In 2017, Tan reimagined Hundreds of Birds Paying Homage to Phoenix for orchestra, performing it in Sydney with suona player Liu Wenwen. This fusion (融合) of Chinese and Western music captivated global audiences. In 2024, Tan paid tribute to (向…致敬) Beethoven with Choral Concerto: Nine in Bonn. Blending Schiller’s “Ode to Joy” with Chinese poetry by Qu Yuan and Li Bai, it explorers universal brotherhood and man-nature harmony, echoing Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony while presenting a(n) 9 Eastern perspective For Tan, music is a(n) 10 force, much like a river flowing through time. His works honor past traditions while embracing modern innovations, bridging the past with the future. As he says, “The world is one home,” and music, with its power to unite, connects people across cultures and generations.

I imagined sentence after sentence, 1 how each might flow into the next. All the while, neurons (神经元) were quietly firing in my brain. That neural activity helps explain why I had those 2 — but does it also mean I had no choice in the matter? Some scientists believe so. A number of influential studies suggest that our brains launch 3 before we are aware of making a decision. In the 1980s, Benjamin Libet found that electrical signals in the brain — so-called readiness potentials — appear before people report choosing to move. More recent studies have found similar results, sometimes detecting 4 brain activity several seconds in advance. These findings have led some researchers to conclude that free will doesn’t exist — that the brain, not the mind, determines what we do. Neuroscientist John-Dylan Haynes, for instance, has argued that our decisions are “predetermined,” and that the brain is “making the decision before the person.” Philosopher and biologist Jerry Coyne goes further, claiming that none of our choices result from 5 reflection at all. But do these experiments really show that we are mere 6 , watching decisions unfold from the backseat? Not quite. The tasks involved in these studies, like 7 between two buttons, are simple. They do not reflect the kind of thoughtful planning we engage in every day. Moreover, the power of early brain signals is 8 at best. In many cases, it’s only slightly more accurate than a coin flip (抛硬币). Other research shows that conscious (有意识的) thought does matter. Forming specific intentions, reflecting on goals, and 9 self-control can significantly influence our actions. These processes, though 10 in the brain, are central to what we understand as free will.

One notable trend is the increasing use of 1 materials in industries ranging from fashion to construction. Designers now create stylish furniture from reclaimed wood, while major brands produce sneakers using ocean plastics. This shift not only reduces waste but also raises public awareness about environmental responsibility. At the same time, mental health awareness has grown significantly. Experts emphasize the importance of staying 2 despite life’s challenges. Social media, however, presents a double-edged sword. While platforms can inspire positivity, they also fuel unrealistic 3 . Some reality shows, designed to keep you glued to the screen, often 4 results—whether it’s weight loss transformations or instant career success. Such portrayals can distort expectations, leading to frustration and self-doubt among viewers. To combat these issues, psychologists recommend proactive strategies. Instead of 5 emotions, individuals should 6 energies into outlets like sports, painting, or journaling. Physical activity, for instance, releases endorphins that naturally elevate mood. Schools and workplaces are also adopting measures to support mental well-being. A government-backed mental health initiative is set to be 7 across the country next year, offering free counseling sessions and stress-management workshops. Parents play a crucial role in this ecosystem. Therapists warn against the tendency to 8 your own anxieties onto children, such as pressuring them to excel academically because of personal unfulfilled ambitions. Open communication and empathy are key to fostering resilience. For those feeling overwhelmed, simple practices like mindfulness or unplugging from digital devices can help restore one’s 9 . Ultimately, sustainability and mental wellness share a common thread: small, consistent actions lead to meaningful change. Whether it’s choosing a reusable water bottle or practicing gratitude daily, these habits serve as the building block for a healthier, more balanced life. As society continues to evolve, 10 environmental consciousness with emotional well-being will be essential for future generations. 试卷第12页,共13页 试卷第13页,共13页 学科网(北京)股份有限公司 $ 专题02 选词填空(十一选十)(期中真题汇编,上海专用) 主题01 人与自我 Passage 1 (24-25高二下·上海莘庄中学·期中) Directions: complete the following passage by using the words in the box.

But does it actually help you get things done, or does it make you less effective? To some people, the advantages of multitasking seem obvious. If you can actually do two or more things at one time, that clearly saves time. It might also make you feel productive, which can in turn make you happy. However, a growing body of research shows that multitasking is not as 1 as it appears. It turns out that when most people multitask, they switch back and forth between 2 on two or more tasks instead of focusing on more than one thing at a time. But mental energy that could be spent working will be 3 if you change your focus constantly. It also causes you to take longer and make more mistakes, thus 4 stress. People who try to multitask often end up feeling more anxious and less 5 than people who don’t. There are some exceptions to the no-multitasking rule. A very small group of people — about two percent of the population — 6 at multitasking. These people, called supertaskers, are able to work on several things at once without their performance suffering. But experts caution: supertaskers are very rare. The 7 of people who think multitasking makes them more productive are fooling themselves. If you do want to multitask, productivity experts 8 doing it carefully. Pair a mentally challenging task with a 9 task that you don’t have to think about. For example, you could prepare a meal while talking on the phone. But when it’s important to do something well, do only that one thing. And 10 be cautious about doing anything else while you’re driving. Multitasking may sound productive, but it actually works against the goal of getting things done. Doing things one at a time usually helps people produce better work and get things done more efficiently. 【答案】 1.A 2.E 3.G 4.H 5.C 6.B 7.J 8.K 9.D 10.F 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了多任务处理的效果、弊端、例外情况及相关建议。 1.考查形容词。句意:然而,越来越多的研究表明,多任务处理并不像它看起来那样高效。本空作表语,根据上文“It might also make you feel productive, which can in turn make you happy.”可知,此处用形容词productive意为“高效的”符合语境。故选A。 2.考查动词。句意:事实上,当大多数人进行多任务处理时,他们其实是在两个或多个任务之间来回切换注意力,而不是真正地同时专注于多件事。本空作介词between的宾语,根据“they switch back and forth”以及“instead of focusing on more than one thing at a time.”可知,他们来回转换,不能真正地专注于多件事情,由此可知,此处表示“专注于”为concentrating on,与focusing on呼应。故选E。 3.考查动词。句意:但如果你不断改变注意力,本可用于工作的精神能量就会被消耗掉。本空作表语,根据“if you change your focus constantly.”可知,不断转移注意力,会“耗尽精神能量”,所以此处为drained意为“耗尽”符合语境。故选G。 4.考查动词。句意:这也会导致你花费更长时间、犯更多错误,从而产生压力。本空作结果状语,根据“It also causes you to take longer and make more mistakes”以及thus可知,此处表示“产生”压力,符合语境,所以此处使用create,与逻辑主语之间为主动关系,所以用现在分词。故选H。 5.考查形容词。句意:尝试多任务处理的人往往比不这样做的人更焦虑,更不平静。本空作表语,与anxious相对,用peaceful意为“平静的”符合语境。故选C。 6.考查动词。句意:一小部分人——约占人口的2%——擅长多任务处理。本空作谓语,根据语境和“There are some exceptions to the no-multitasking rule.”可知,也有一些例外情况,也就是有一部分人“擅长”多任务,所以此处表示“擅长”为动词短语excel at。故选B。 7.考查名词。句意:大多数认为多任务处理能让自己更高效的人其实在自欺欺人。本空作主语,根据句意以及“But experts caution: supertaskers are very rare.”可知,多任务是少见的,由此可知,此处表示“大多数”为the majority,与“a very small group”形成对比。故选J。 8.考查动词。句意:如果你确实想进行多任务处理,效率专家建议谨慎行事。本空作谓语,根据句意以及“Pair a mentally challenging task with a ___9___  task that you don’t have to think about.”可知,此处指的是专家“建议”,为动词recommend,后接doing sth.。故选K。 9.考查形容词。句意:将具有精神挑战性的任务与无需思考的体力任务搭配。本空作定语修饰task,与mentally challenging相对,用physical意为“体力的”符合语境。故选D。 10.考查副词。句意:尤其是在开车时,要谨慎对待做其他任何事情。本空修饰be cautious,用副词especially意为“尤其”,强调开车时的特殊情况。故选F。 Passage 2 (24-25高二下·上海华东师范大学第二附属中学·期中) Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box.

Still, you might be one of the millions who watched the 1 video of a fitness trainer’s well-crafted morning routine, now with over 741 million views on the social media. While many have assumed the video is marketing for a certain product, it’s understandable to be fascinated by 2 at other people’s habits. “For better or for worse, it is in our nature to compare ourselves to others,” says Raphael Wald. “It is difficult for us as people to appreciate our successes without using others as a 3 tape.” Many competing feelings can arise during social comparison: Envy, admiration, motivation and fear of missing out. But often, shame and inadequacy 4 up to the top. The video is the latest in a series of morning habits shared on social media, all gaining millions of views. This fascination with others’ routines is nothing new. People have been 5 on how famous, successful figures spend their mornings for centuries. Benjamin Franklin wrote about his morning routine in his autobiography in the late 1700s, describing how he woke up at 5 a.m., set intentions for the day, read, and studied. In his 1854 book Walden, Henry David Thoreau discussed going for a swim during the “awakening hour.” These old-fashioned 6 have even aroused interest now; people in the present day are posting about their experiences trying, for instance, “The daily routine of the original Benjamin Franklin.” Mornings are a “ 7 ” experience, says Ben Bernstein. Everyone wakes up, gets dressed, and usually eats breakfast. Then, they go about their day, which is more 8 . “There’s a moment in time where people are doing similar things,” he says. It can feel predictable, so it’s often appealing to see how others spend that time. “We’re actually kind of living 9 through that person: If we have a routine and we follow these steps, then life can be smooth and free of stress,” Bernstein says. Research shows that morning routines can ease stress and increase energy. But routines should be tailored to your needs and lifestyle, says Dr. Alex Dimitriu. There’s no “secret sauce” for morning habits that will 10 help you become like someone you admire. Videos may be fun to watch, but Dimitriu urges taking them with “a grain of salt.” 【答案】 1.K 2.D 3.G 4.B 5.E 6.H 7.I 8.J 9.F 10.A 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章围绕人们对他人早晨习惯视频的关注展开,探讨了这种现象背后的原因,指出早晨习惯虽有一定益处,但应根据个人情况定制。 1.考查形容词。句意:然而,你可能是数百万观看了一位健身教练精心打造的早晨习惯的热门视频的人之一,该视频在社交媒体上的浏览量现已超过7.41亿次。分析句子可知,空格处需填入一个形容词来修饰名词video。viral意为“像病毒般扩散的,广为传播的”,viral video是常见搭配,结合后文提到的超高浏览量,viral符合语境,能体现出这个视频的火爆程度。故选K项。 2.考查名词。句意:虽然很多人认为这个视频是为某一产品做营销,但人们会被看别人的习惯所吸引,这是可以理解的。 分析句子可知,介词by后面需要一个名词,glances在这里构成固定短语glances at,意为“瞥一眼,看一下”,“be fascinated by glances at other people’s habits”表示“被看别人习惯这件事所吸引”,符合文意。故选D项。 3.考查非谓语动词。句意:拉斐尔·沃尔德说:“不管是好是坏,拿自己和别人作比较是我们的天性。对我们人类来说,如果不把别人当作衡量标准,就很难欣赏自己的成功。” 分析句子可知,空格处需要一个词来修饰tape,measuring tape是“卷尺”的意思,这里将他人比作衡量自己成功的“卷尺”,形象地表达了人们在社会比较中以他人为参照的行为,现在分词measuring符合要求。故选G项。 4.考查动词。句意:但在社会比较中,羞耻和不足的感觉往往会浮现出来。分析句子可知,空格处需要一个动词,bubble up是固定短语,意为“涌现,冒出”,bubble up to the top表示这些负面情绪占据主导,符合语境。故选B项。 5.考查形容词。句意:几个世纪以来,人们一直着迷于著名的成功人士如何度过他们的早晨。分析句子可知,be动词后面需要一个形容词,be hooked on是固定搭配,意为“对……着迷,上瘾”,结合前文人们对他人早晨习惯视频的关注,hooked符合文意。 故选E项。 6.考查名词。句意:这些老式的习惯做法如今甚至还引起了人们的兴趣;如今,人们正在发布关于他们尝试,比如“本杰明·富兰克林最初的日常习惯”的经历。根据前面的These以及语境,这里需要一个名词复数,practices有“习惯,惯例,做法”的意思,These old-fashioned practices表示“这些老式的习惯做法”,符合语境。 故选H项。 7.考查形容词。句意:本·伯恩斯坦说,早晨是一种“普遍的”体验。分析句子可知,空格处需要一个形容词来修饰experience,根据后文“Everyone wakes up, gets dressed, and usually eats breakfast.”可知,每个人早上都会做这些事,说明这是一种普遍的经历,universal意为“普遍的,通用的”,符合要求。故选I项。 8.考查形容词。句意:然后,他们开始一天的生活,这更具独特性。分析句子可知,空格处需要一个形容词作表语,前文提到早上大家做的事情有相似性,是普遍的经历,而白天的活动更具个人特色,unique意为“独特的,独一无二的”,与前面的普遍形成对比,符合逻辑。故选J项。 9.考查副词。句意:伯恩斯坦说:“实际上,我们是通过那个人间接地体验生活:如果我们有一套日常习惯并遵循这些步骤,那么生活就会顺利且没有压力。” 分析句子可知,空格处需要一个副词来修饰动词living,indirectly意为“间接地”,结合语境,我们通过看别人的早晨习惯视频,间接体验到遵循这些步骤可能带来的生活状态,indirectly符合文意。故选F项。 10.考查副词。句意:没有一种早晨习惯的“秘诀”能自动地帮助你变得像你钦佩的人。分析句子可知,空格处需要一个副词来修饰动词help,automatically意为“自动地,自然而然地”,结合前文提到早晨习惯应根据个人需求定制,说明没有一种方法能让你自动变成你钦佩的人,automatically符合语境。 故选A项。 Passage 3 (24-25高二下·上海宜川中学·期中) Directions: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box.

It’s a special spot where she feels at peace, 1 by nature’s beauty. Her little cottage near Loch Affric isn’t just a place to stay; it’s where her heart feels most at home, away from the noise and rush of cities. It’s her perfect spot for writing. In this quiet part of the world, Ava wakes up to the cheerful music of the birds and the 2 light of the morning sun streaming in. She writes her stories on an old, reliable typewriter.

At the beginning of 2025, multiple large wildfires burning around Los Angeles had tens of thousands of residents 1 as the fires showed no sign of slowing their spread.   The spark that caused the fires is under investigation, but the risk of wildfires 2 has been extremely high in Southern California. January is typically the rainy season in Los Angeles, but this winter, rainfall has been scarce. Besides, the region’s seasonal winds created 100 mph gusts in some areas. These warm, dry winds spread the hot ashes that spark new flames and can make it more difficult for firefighters to   3 fires.   Wildfires can burn millions of acres of land at shockingly fast speeds, 4 everything in their paths. These rolling flames travel up to 14 miles an hour, which converts to about a four-minute-mile pace, and can 5 the average human in minutes.   That’s why it’s critical to understand how wildfires get started and how to stop them. Natural or man-made, three conditions must be 6 for wildfire to burn: fuel, oxygen, and a heat source. Firefighters call these three elements the fire triangle.   Firefighters battle blazes by depriving them of one or more of the fire triangle 7 . One traditional method is to put out existing fires with water and spray fire retardants (阻燃剂). Firefighters also sometimes work in teams to clear vegetation from the land around a fire and eventually 8 it of fuel. They may also employ controlled burning, creating   9 breaks to stop a wildfire. This method involves fighting fire with fire. These prescribed — and controlled — fires remove undergrowth, brush, and litter from a forest, depriving an otherwise raging wildfire of fuel.   Although they can be dangerous to humans, naturally occurring wildfires play an integral role in nature. By burning dead or decaying matter, they can return otherwise trapped nutrients to the soil. Besides, wildfires 10 forest canopies (树冠) and undergrowth, allowing sunlight to reach the forest floor and a new generation of seedlings to grow. In fact, some trees, like sequoias, rely on fire for their seeds to even open. 【答案】 1.I 2.G 3.F 4.D 5.B 6.K 7.C 8.A 9.E 10.H 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了野火如何在一夜之间变得致命,介绍了野火发生的原因、蔓延速度、燃烧条件以及扑灭野火的方法和野火对自然的作用。 1.考查非谓语动词。句意:2025年初,洛杉矶周围发生了多起大型野火,由于火势没有减缓的迹象,数万名居民被疏散。空处为非谓语动词作宾语补足语,evacuate“疏散”为动词,与residents之间为主动关系,其现在分词evacuating符合句意。故填I项。 2.考查非谓语动词。句意:引发火灾的火花正在调查中,但在南加州,野火发生的风险一直极高。空处为非谓语动词,作介词of后的宾语,develop“发生”为动词,且与逻辑主语wildfires为主动关系,其现在分词developing符合句意。故填G项。 3.考查动词。句意:这些温暖、干燥的风将炽热的灰烬吹散,引发新的火焰,并可能使消防员更难控制火势。空处为不定式to后的动词原形,contain“控制”为动词,符合句意。故填F项。 4.考查非谓语动词。句意:野火能以惊人的速度烧毁数百万英亩的土地,吞噬沿途的一切。空处为非谓语动词作状语,consume“吞噬”为动词,且与逻辑主语Wildfires之间为主动关系,其现在分词consuming符合句意。故填D项。 5.考查动词。句意:这些滚动的火焰以每小时14英里的速度移动,相当于每分钟四英里的速度,几分钟内就能超过普通人的速度。空处为情态动词can后的动词原形,overtake“超过”为动词,符合句意。故填B项。 6.考查形容词。句意:无论是自然发生的还是人为造成的,野火燃烧必须具备三个条件:燃料、氧气和热源。空处为形容词作表语,present“在场的,存在的”为形容词,符合句意。故填K项。 7.考查名词。句意:消防员通过剥夺火灾三角形的其中一个或多个要素来扑灭大火。空处为介词of后的名词,fundamental“基本要素”为可数名词,其复数形式fundamentals符合句意。故填C项。 8.考查动词。句意:消防员有时也会分组工作,清除火灾周围的植被,最终使火势缺乏燃料。空处与clear并列,为不定式to后的动词原形,作目的状语,starve“使……缺乏”为动词,starve sth. of sth.意为“使某物缺乏某物”,符合句意。故填A项。 9.考查名词。句意:他们还可能采用控制燃烧的方法,制造防火带以阻止野火蔓延。空处为名词作定语,修饰名词breaks,backfires“(为形成防火隔离带而有意点燃的) 迎面火”为名词,符合句意。故填E项。 10.考查动词。句意:此外,野火使森林树冠和下层植被变薄,让阳光能够照射到森林地面,使新一代树苗得以生长。空处为谓语动词,thin“使……变薄”为动词,符合句意,且句子陈述客观事实,用一般现在时,主语Wildfires为复数,动词用原形。故填H项。 主题01 人与自我 Passage 1 (24-25高二下·上海七宝中学·期中) Directions: In this section, fill the blanks using the words in the box.

Like any skill, it can be learned as long as you have the determination to learn, and give yourself 1 practice. People often fear that they are the only ones for whom writing is unbearably difficult. Such people typically say, “I am not any good at writing.” Often, the result of this attitude is that people try to avoid writing. It becomes a(n) 2 prediction: their writing fails chiefly because they have brainwashed themselves into believing they don’t have the “natural talent”. Many people find it difficult to do the intense, active thinking that clear writing 3 . It is frustrating to discover how much of a challenge it is to 4 thoughts and feelings from one’s hand onto the page. But writing is not an automatic process. For almost everyone, competent writing comes from plain hard work-determination, sweat, and 5 battle. Additionally, many people 6 believe that writing should flow in a straight line from the writer’s head onto the written page. But a finished paper seldom comes out in the first draft. The truth is writing is a process of discovery involving a series of steps, which are very often a zigzag journey. For example, Diane Woods had been assigned to write about an annoyance in everyday life. She did not know what specific annoyances she would choose; instead, she just began writing about them in general. One of those annoyances was traffic, which seemed 7 , so she began putting down details that came to her. One detail was the traffic she had to deal with in going to the movies. That made her think of the traffic in the parking lot at the theater 8 . At that point, it dawned on her that, instead of traffic, moviegoing itself was an annoyance. She switched direction in midstream and began writing down ideas and details about moviegoing. The point is writing is often a process of continuing discovery. You may be working on a(n) 9 sentence and realize suddenly that it could be your concluding thought. Writers frequently do not know their exact destination as they begin to write. Very often they discover the direction and 10 of a paper during the process of writing. 【答案】 1.D 2.K 3.B 4.H 5.E 6.C 7.F 8.A 9.G 10.I 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要阐述了写作是一种可以通过学习获得的技能,而非天赋。 1.考查形容词。句意:如同任何技能一样,只要你有决心去学习,并给自己大量的练习,写作技能是可以学会的。空处修饰名词practice ,需用形容词作定语,表示“大量的”应用形容词extensive。故选D。 2.考查形容词。句意:这变成了一种自我实现的预言:他们的写作失败主要是因为他们给自己洗脑,让自己相信自己没有“天赋”。空处修饰名词prediction,需用形容词作定语,表示“自我实现的”应用形容词self-fulfilling。故选K。 3.考查动词时态。句意:许多人发现,要进行清晰写作所要求的那种深入、积极的思考是很困难的。空处作谓语,表示“要求”应用demand,陈述客观事实,使用一般现在时,主语为clear writing,谓语用第三人称单数形式。故选B。 4.考查非谓语动词。句意:发现把思想和情感从脑海中转移到纸上是多么具有挑战性,这是令人沮丧的。it是形式主语,to是动词不定式符号,故此处用动词原形,表示“转移”应用动词transfer。故选H。 5.考查形容词。句意:对几乎所有人来说,出色的写作来自于纯粹的努力工作——决心、汗水和正面的努力。修饰名词battle,需用形容词作定语,表示“正面交锋的”应用形容词head-on。故选E。 6.考查副词。句意:此外,许多人错误地认为写作应该从作者的脑海中直接流畅地写到纸上。修饰动词believe需用副词作状语,表示“错误地”应用副词falsely。故选C。 7.考查形容词。句意:其中一个烦恼是交通问题,这似乎很有潜力,所以她开始写下想到的细节。空处作表语,需用形容词,表示“有希望的”应用promising。故选F。 8.考查名词。句意:这让她想到了电影院停车场复杂的交通情况。“theater complex”表示“综合影院”。故选A。 9.考查名词。句意:你可能正在写一个主题句,突然意识到它可能是你的总结性想法。空处修饰名词sentence,需用名词作定语,表示“主题”应用名词topic。故选G。 10.考查名词。句意:他们常常在写作过程中发现一篇文章的方向和形式。空处和direction并列,作宾语,需用名词,表示“形状”应用名词shape。故选I。 Passage 2 (24-25高二下·上海闵行区六校联考·期中) Directions: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box.

The researchers asked college students to rate their feelings on a   1 from “unhappy” to “very happy” and compared the results with academic and social outcomes. Though the “very happy” participants had the best social lives, they 2 worse in school than those who were merely “happy”. The researchers then examined a data set from another study that rated college freshman’s “cheerfulness” and 3 their income nearly two decades later. They found that the most cheerful were not the highest earners. That distinction once again went to the second-highest group, which rated their cheerfulness as “above average”. As with everything in life, happiness has its trade-offs. Pursuing happiness to the 4 of other goals — known as psychological hedonism (享乐主义) — not only is in vain, but may also give you a life where you do not reach your full potential, where you are unwilling to take risks, where you choose temporary pleasures over 5 experiences that give life meaning. The way to understand the study above is not to deny that happiness is good; rather, it is to remember that a little bit of unhappiness has benefits. When I talk with people about their fear of negative outcomes in life, their true source of fear, in many cases, 6 on how they will feel about having failed, not about the consequences of failure itself. This is similar to the way discomfort with uncertainty causes more anxiety than 7 bad news. To avoid these bad feelings, people give up all kinds of opportunities that involve the possibility of failure. However, bringing good things into your life, whether love or career success, usually involves risk. Risk does not, of course, 8 make us happy. A risky life will very likely bring disappointment, but it can bring greater rewards than a life played safe, as the studies suggested. None of this is to say that we are foolish for wanting to be happy. On the contrary, the desire for happiness is natural and normal. However, making the quest for positive feelings your highest or only goal is a 9 life strategy. Endless happiness is impossible to achieve, and doing so sacrifices many of the elements of a good life. As the Canadian-American psychologist Paul Bloom wrote, “It’s the 10 we choose that affords the most opportunity for pleasure, meaning, and personal growth.” 【答案】 1.G 2.F 3.J 4.C 5.A 6.K 7.D 8.E 9.B 10.I 【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章主要论述了快乐也有平衡,多一点幸福并不总是比少一点好,适当的不开心可以提高对生活的感受和解决问题的能力。 1.考查名词。句意:研究人员要求大学生对自己的感受进行打分,从“不开心”到“非常开心”,并将结果与学业和社交结果进行比较。空处应填名词单数作宾语,结合“from ‘unhappy’ to ‘very happy’”可知,此处指“从‘不开心’到‘开心’的范围”,scale“范围”符合语境,故选G。 2.考查动词。句意:尽管“非常开心”的参与者拥有最好的社交生活,但他们在学校的表现却不如那些仅仅“开心”的人。空处是谓语动词,陈述过去的事情,用一般过去时;根据“worse in school”可知,此处指“在学校表现得更差”,performed“表现”符合语境,故选F。 3.考查动词。句意:然后,研究人员检查了另一项研究中的数据集,该研究对大学新生的“快乐程度”进行了评级,并追踪了他们近20年后的收入。空处和examined是并列的谓语动词,应填动词过去式,结合“their income nearly two decades later”可知, 此处指“追踪了他们近20年后的收入”,tracked“追踪,跟踪”符合语境,故选J。 4.考查名词。句意:只追求幸福而不追求其他目标——被称为心理享乐主义——不仅是徒劳的,而且可能会让你的生活无法充分发挥你的潜力,你不愿冒险,你选择暂时的快乐而不是赋予生活意义的挑战经历。空处应填名词作宾语,结合“known as psychological hedonism (享乐主义)”可知,此处指“只追求幸福而排除其他目标”,exclusion“排除”符合语境,故选C。 5.考查形容词。句意同上。空处应填形容词作定语,修饰名词experiences,此处和“temporary pleasures”相对,再由空后“that give life meaning”可知,此处指“有挑战性的经历”,challenging“有挑战性的”符合语境,故选A。 6.考查动词。句意:当我和人们谈论他们对生活中消极结果的恐惧时,在许多情况下,他们真正的恐惧来源集中在他们对失败的感受上,而不是失败本身的后果。空处是谓语动词,结合“their true source of fear”以及空后的“on”可知,center on“以……为中心”符合语境,陈述客观事实,用一般现在时,主语 their true source of fear是单数,谓语动词用单数形式。故选K。 7.考查形容词。句意:这类似于对不确定性的不安会导致比肯定的坏消息更多的焦虑。此处和“uncertainty”相对,表示“对不确定性的不安会导致比肯定的坏消息更多的焦虑”,guaranteed“确定会发生的”符合语境,故选D。 8.考查副词。句意:当然,冒险不一定会让我们快乐。空处修饰谓语动词,应用副词形式,结合下文“A risky life will very likely bring disappointment”可知,冒险不一定会让我们快乐,necessarily“必然地”符合语境,故选E。 9.考查形容词。句意:然而,把追求积极的感觉作为你最高或唯一的目标是一种代价高昂的生活策略。空处应填形容词作定语,修饰名词短语life strategy,结合下文“Endless happiness is impossible to achieve, and doing so sacrifices many of the elements of a good life.(无尽的幸福是不可能实现的,这样做会牺牲许多美好生活的元素)”可知,此处指“代价高昂的生活策略”,costly“昂贵的,代价高的”符合语境,故选B。 10.考查名词。句意:正如加拿大裔美国心理学家Paul Bloom所写的那样,“我们选择的苦难为我们提供了获得快乐、意义和个人成长的最多机会。”空处应填名词作主语,结合上文“Endless happiness is impossible to achieve, and doing so sacrifices many of the elements of a good life.(无尽的幸福是不可能实现的,这样做会牺牲许多美好生活的元素)”可知,无尽的幸福是不可能实现的,这样做会牺牲许多美好生活的元素,所以此处指“苦难”,suffering“痛苦,苦难”符合语境,故选I。 主题02 人与社会 Passage 1 (24-25高二下·上海静安区新中高级中学·期中) Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box.

Nurtured in a Hunan village, Tan’s artistic 1 stemmed from Ghost Opera-a ritual heritage blending Taoism, Buddhism, and nature worship. His childhood dream to become a shaman who could “ 2 the wind’s whispers and decode stone-leaf dialogues” shaped his artistic vision through spiritual 3 to the natural world. A life-changing moment came at age 16 when Tan heard a symphony. The emotional power of Beethoven’s Fifth Symphony by the Philadelphia Orchestra deeply moved him. 4 to master this art form, he studied at China’s Central Conservatory of Music and later in New York. Two decades later, he was invited to work with the Philadelphia Orchestra, bringing his journey full circle. Tan’s music often draws on the sounds of nature. One of his 5 works, The Map, features unconventional instruments such as water bowls, stones, and rice paper. In Passacaglia: Secret of Wind and Birds, Tan seamlessly blends the sounds of wind and birds with orchestral instruments. This creates a rich experience that evokes the dynamic interplay between humans and the natural world. Tan is also 6 to preserving China’s musical heritage.

I imagined sentence after sentence, 1 how each might flow into the next. All the while, neurons (神经元) were quietly firing in my brain. That neural activity helps explain why I had those 2 — but does it also mean I had no choice in the matter? Some scientists believe so. A number of influential studies suggest that our brains launch 3 before we are aware of making a decision. In the 1980s, Benjamin Libet found that electrical signals in the brain — so-called readiness potentials — appear before people report choosing to move. More recent studies have found similar results, sometimes detecting 4 brain activity several seconds in advance. These findings have led some researchers to conclude that free will doesn’t exist — that the brain, not the mind, determines what we do. Neuroscientist John-Dylan Haynes, for instance, has argued that our decisions are “predetermined,” and that the brain is “making the decision before the person.” Philosopher and biologist Jerry Coyne goes further, claiming that none of our choices result from 5 reflection at all. But do these experiments really show that we are mere 6 , watching decisions unfold from the backseat? Not quite. The tasks involved in these studies, like 7 between two buttons, are simple. They do not reflect the kind of thoughtful planning we engage in every day. Moreover, the power of early brain signals is 8 at best. In many cases, it’s only slightly more accurate than a coin flip (抛硬币). Other research shows that conscious (有意识的) thought does matter. Forming specific intentions, reflecting on goals, and 9 self-control can significantly influence our actions.
