What is a bedtime ritual? A bedtime ritual is a set of activities that you perform nightly in preparation for going to bed. 2 For children, 20 to 45 minutes should be enough time to wind down. Your bedtime ritual should include practices that help you relax, like having a cup of warm milk. It can also incorporate practical activities, like brushing your teeth or putting on pajamas. 3 How to Create Your Own Bedtime Ritual? There’s no formula for the perfect bedtime ritual, so you might want to try several different activities before settling on a consistent routine. What’s important is figuring out what works for you. 4 If you enjoy exercise and movement, try yoga or gentle stretching. If you find comfort in order, create a to-do list for the next day. If classical music soothes you, turn on some Bach or Mozart while you enjoy a bath. And remember to prioritize comfort. Whether your bedtime ritual takes place in bed or somewhere else, make sure your environment is relaxing. 5 When the time comes to fall asleep, you’ll be ready. A．Avoid activities known to interfere with sleep. B．For adults, bedtime rituals typically last 30 minutes to an hour. C．Start out with two or three activities that help you feel relaxed. D．Settling down with some relaxing activities can tell your body it’s time to sleep. E．Wear comfortable pajamas, curl up under a cozy blanket, and keep the lights low. F．Sleeping behaviors develop during childhood and often become fixed patterns by adulthood. G．Whatever you choose to include in your ritual, the key is doing them consistently every night. Passage 2 Knowing how to deal with depression can help you live a fuller, more productive life. The following coping techniques can help ease this mental health condition. Talk to someone It may sound simple, but it’s effective. Staying connected can go a long way toward managing your depression. 6 According to research, increased social connection and feeling connected can help decrease depressive symptoms. Explore and challenge your thoughts Depression can surface through a lot of negative thoughts, but you can learn how to challenge them with know -how and effort. 7 Rather, it’s a way to look at your real situation and restore your positivity. For instance, you might remind yourself that you are loved and then give specific examples to support this new thought pattern. Engage in rewarding activities Engaging in rewarding activities can help you stay active and out of depression. This can involve scheduled activities of mental health strategies. For example, you can start your day with positive self-talk and end it by writing down something you are grateful for. 8 Practice gratitude When you’re struggling with depression, it can be difficult to be grateful. 9 Focusing on gratitude can bring you an increased sense of well-being, and help you transform your understanding of belongings and abilities into sources of gratitude. 10 Sometimes people feel forced to apply a label they didn’t want, but it doesn’t need to be part of an identity. Struggling to accept its existence only brings more pain. Accepting depression helps you become open to figuring out what led to the depression. Depression is one of the mind and body’s ways of saying you need to make a change, so accepting it will help facilitate that change. A．Ignore the label B．Learn to accept it C．This reminds you that you’re not alone D．Engaging in physical exercise does wonders E．This doesn’t mean just telling yourself everything’s fine F．However, being appreciative has mental health benefits G．Including these activities into your routine can help with depression Passage 3 Sunlight plays a role in your overall health and well-being, says family medicine doctor Charles Garven and he outlines the specific benefits sunshine can bring. Let’s take a closer look. Sunlight provides vitamin D． Sunlight is the main way that your body gets its vitamin D — so much so that it’s sometimes called the “sunshine vitamin”! 11 “More than 90% of our vitamin D comes from sunlight exposure,” Dr. Garven says. Sunlight boosts mood. There’s a scientific reason why sunny days put a smile on your face: Sunlight seems to activate the production of serotonin (血清素), which carries messages between your nerve cells and throughout your body. 12 Sunlight helps regulate sleep patterns. This might seem strange (after all, most people are awake when the sun is out!), but sunlight plays an important role in regulating your sleep cycle. 13 While darkness tells your brain that it’s time to get ready to sleep. 14 Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) is a type of depression caused by a change in seasons and is often caused by a lack of sunlight. A 2024 study reports that spending more than one hour in daylight protects against depression symptoms. And in an older study, people with SAD who took a one-hour walk outdoors for a week reported a 50% improvement in their symptoms. 15 So, get outside and touch some grass. A．Sunlight contributes to growing taller. B．Sunlight improves symptoms of seasonal depression. C．The health benefits of sunlight exposure are undeniable. D．Dr. Garven notes research remains to be done to understand those effects. E．And it’s clear that vitamin D is an important mineral for our overall health. F．Getting sunlight early in the day helps signal to your brain that it’s time to be alarmed. G．This natural chemical is sometimes known as the “feel-good hormone (荷尔蒙)” because of its effect on mood. Passage 4 Getting older means greater maturity and wisdom. 16 In a society that is aging fast, it has become crucial to find ways to prevent related mental and emotional disorders. Music emerges as a promising tool for promoting well-being of the elderly. Music has a great power to cause strong emotions and intense pleasure. 17 Singing and dancing to music with others is not only fun but also improves mood. Musical activities are great ways to reduce stress because they take our minds off problems. They also help us feel less lonely and more connected with other people. 18 A song may become a soundtrack for a particular time, such as a delightful party with friends that you had a long time ago. Listening to that song allows you to remember all the happy memories from that time. Finally, music contributes to keeping our thinking skills sharp. It makes our brains work hard in unique ways to understand the rhythm and melody. 19 For example, research demonstrates that listening to classical background music while performing cognitive tasks can enhance specific mental functions in elderly individuals, particularly processing speed and working memory capacity. In conclusion, music is a powerful tool to fight against aging-related emotional and cognitive problems. It is an enjoyable and social activity, available to anyone regardless of their background or previous musical experience. 20 A．Music can also open forgotten doors to our memories. B．Recalling happy memories can lift our mood on a bad day. C．Even passive music listening can help elderly adults think better. D．This helps people feel better when they are depressed or anxious. E．However, it often involves a series of physical and mental challenges. F．The ability to form new memories is essential for processing information. G．Therefore, simple strategies like this should be a key part of promoting healthy aging. Passage 5 When we feel threatened or stressed, our brain produces chemicals which raise energy and sharpen focus, helping us react quickly to danger. 21 For example, the pressure of an upcoming performance might motivate you to practice harder. Studies also show that mild stress can improve memory by activating parts of the brain involved in learning. 22 Normally when we experience a stressful event, stress hormones (激素) are released for about 15 to 30 minutes. But if we face multiple or persistent stress day after day, we will suffer from problems like sleeplessness, brain fog, digestive issues, and even heart disease. So how much stress is too much stress? 23 Different factors like your genetics, environment, and even your age, can influence the way your body responds. But no matter what your situation is, there are tools that can make dealing with stress a bit easier. Physical activity is a powerful stress reducer. Exercise creates new brain cells, making it easier to recover. A run through the park or a basketball game with friends can be a great distraction (分心事) from whatever is stressing you out. 24 Interacting with friends or family can lower stress hormone levels. Simple mindfulness practices, like deep breathing or journaling, build awareness of our emotions and keep us focused on the present. While we can't avoid life's challenges, understanding our stress response and using these tools can help us face them more calmly and effectively. By managing stress wisely, we can turn it from an enemy into a friend. 25 A．Social connection also helps. B．Small amounts of stress can even be helpful. C．It may help us grow stronger and live healthier. D．However, problems arise when stress becomes constant. E．Today, though, we initiate this response in many situations. F．Doctors recommend regular check-ups to monitor stress levels. G．It's difficult to say, as not everyone experiences stress in the same way. 话题2 环境保护 Passage 1 Electronic waste (also known as e-waste) is discarded (丢弃的) electronic devices. Improper handling of this waste can lead to environmental damage. 1 Sell old electronics. One of the best and easiest methods of reducing the electronic waste footprint is to sell your electronic things to those in need. You get easy money while the buyer gets a nice device. 2 . You can sell unwanted devices by posting a local advertisement and meeting up with potential buyers. 3 . Donating electronics to the needy is also a practice followed by many. It will give the device a new life and make you feel good about yourself. If you decide to donate your old electronic devices when you don’t need them anymore, make sure to clear any information before you donate them. Learn to repair broken electronics. By learning to repair your electronics at home, you will gain more detailed knowledge of your device. Best of all, you will be able to continue using the device for longer. Re-evaluate. Always think twice before buying a new electronic device. Do you really need this new device? 4 ? If you answered “no” to any of the questions, then it might be best to re-evaluate your thoughts and avoid buying it. Spread the word. Let’s say you’ve been trying to reduce electronic waste. 5 ! Now, it’s time to share your knowledge with others who may be less aware of the dangers of e-waste. Next time you see a family member improperly getting rid of an old computer or buying a new smartphone for no reason, take time and share your knowledge of the harmful effects of their actions. A．Donate old electronics B．It is a win-win for both C．Recycle e-waste properly D．Is it a need or more of a want E．Do you want to make them more useful F．You’re doing your part, and that’s great G．Here are some ways of reducing electronic waste Passage 2 If you’re a hiker or outdoor person, you know how important it can be to bring a snack with you on a long outdoor adventure. 6 But when you’re done with your apple, you can just throw the core away, right? While your banana skin or apple core will degrade when exposed to nature, it is not necessarily safe for the environment for you to do so. Here’s why. 7 If you’ve ever had a compost heap (堆肥堆), you know that when you throw something in the compost, it takes some time to biodegrade and turn into rich, dark soil. Compost heaps are often the most ideal places for this organic matter to break down. 8 Next, leaving food waste could harm wildlife. If you leave an apple core near your favorite outdoor adventure spot, a deer may come along and decide to finish eating it for you. 9 However, feeding wildlife increases habituation. If an animal becomes habituated to finding apple cores along roadsides, for example, it increases the likelihood that it will be hurt or killed by passing traffic. Ultimately, the best practice when experiencing nature is to pack out everything that you pack in, even biodegradable food waste. Humans have systems in place for dealing with the quantity of organic food waste we produce. 10 A．The deer may be happy with the find. B．Do remember to bring your favorite snack. C．First, food waste might not degrade quickly. D．Finally, this might attract a group of wild deer. E．The ground near your favorite local hiking path is not. F．Nature, on the other hand, may have a harder time dealing with our waste. G．A banana, apple, or some other snack can make all the difference to how far you can go. Passage 3 Humankind has tried to improve its standard of living since the very beginning of civilization. Back then, and today, providing food was the basic task for a person. 11 People feel the need for not only some primary things, such as bread and shelters, but also for various facilities and luxuries. Providing humanity with these things is connected to the use of natural resources, which requires energy. 12 , so economic growth is almost inevitably (不可避免地) associated with environmental damage. 13 The first of these is the fact that in order to produce more goods and products, at a faster rate, the construction of large industrial plants is required. These plants produce a lot of waste, which may cause negative long-term health effects to nearby populations of animals, or people. The traditional energy sources, which are commonly used nowadays, are considered to be the greatest polluters to the environment. There also exist so-called eco-friendly sources of energy. 14 Of course, during this time people have to make some sacrifices to support these undertakings. In order to produce practical energy, a transformation of the natural site is often inevitable. This is expensive and, has harmful effects on the environment. Application of wind energy would block airflow’s natural speed. Consequently, the pressure balance that is brought about by this current will be affected, and it is important to remember that the environment and weather conditions are directly affected by atmospheric pressure. 15 This is the embarrassment mankind has to deal with. A good balance between economic development and sustainability is forever what humankind has to keep in mind. A．There are certain aspects of economic growth which affect the environment. B．Clean energy has always been on the priority list for a better environment. C．For these reasons, bringing about economic growth without any resulting environmental damage is impossible. D．However, nowadays the range of required goods has expanded significantly. E．So humankind began to make exploration to satisfy themselves economically and mentally. F．They are sometimes preferred but replacing the traditional sources with them also requires time. G．In turn, the common sources of energy we use today cause pollution Passage 4 If you’re looking for something fun to do, pack a picnic dinner and take your family or friends to a beautiful place to eat. However, there’s a wrong trend—viewing picnics as an excuse to transport food in single-use plastic containers. Sure, it means the clean-up is easy at the moment, but it just puts it off to a later point, when it takes the form of the volunteer clean-up and landfill management. 16 What follows is advice on how to pack such a picnic. Use food containers wisely Using reusable containers is the easiest way to reduce waste. 17 For example, to reduce packaging, you can take along things like a loaf of bread, a whole watermelon, whole vegetables, a knife and a board to cut your food when you’re ready to eat. These things don’t have to be done and sealed before you leave the house. 18 Using washable dishes for a picnic does not require much more work than single-use ones. You’d have to carry the waste out anyway in a trash bag, so why not pack your dirty plates into a bag and put them in the dishwasher at home? If you’re worried about breaking, take some solid camping plates. Think about the drinks Forget the single-use, single-serve drink bottles. 19 Fill personal water bottles with water, juice or lemonade at home. Compared with a single-use plastic cup, they have the added advantage of keeping your drinks cold for longer. Put cloth bags to good use Cloth bags are amazing. I use them for so much more than just buying food at the store. They’re perfect for packing sandwiches, dried or fresh fruit, and other snack foods. You can use them to pack glasses or plates to prevent breaking. They can also work as a napkin, tea towel, or garbage bag if needed. 20 A．Clean up the waste B．Avoid plastic plates C．Be sure to add a few to your picnic basket. D．There are some healthy dishes you can make or buy. E．To prevent this, a plastic-free picnic can be a brilliant idea. F．These create a huge amount of waste, which can be easily avoided. G．In addition, keep in mind that you don’t have to pre-pack everything. Passage 5 Have you ever thought about pouring used cooking oil down the sink? Just turn on the tap and flush (冲走) it all away. 21 Not only does this bad habit cause problems in your house, backyard, or neighborhood, but pouring such substances down the sink also creates widespread problems for the entire wastewater system and the workers responsible for its maintenance. The smooth day-to-day operation of our wastewater collection and treatment relies on the cooperation of people to “do the right thing”. Many water management authorities across Australia are in broad agreement: Please don’t pour oils down the sink. They all offer advice on far better alternatives. But the water industry has no control over what we do in the privacy of our homes. 22 When still hot, oils are often liquid and can be easily poured away. But down in the sewer (下水道) pipes, they rapidly cool and solidify. 23 According to Western Australia’s Water Corporation, it is estimated that 30% of sewer blockages are due to oils. 24 Think about hair and so-called “flushable wipes”. They can build up over time, creating “fatbergs”: horrible masses of wipes, hair,hardened oils and other waste. Oils act as the glue that helps fatbergs build up at choke points in sewer systems. There are more responsible ways of handling oils than just flushing them away. 25 Small amounts of cooking oil can safely be composted (制成堆肥). Even just pouring oils into the rubbish is better. But remember, you may need to cool hot oils down before putting them into the bin. A．It is really up to us. B．Please don’t do that. C．Blocked sewers are bad for us. D．Some engines can run on cooking oil. E．This is a serious and common problem. F．Cooking oil can actually be recycled and used to make biofuels. G．Oils also cause trouble by combining with other flushed-away materials. 话题3 健康饮食 Passage 1 Choosing the best diet for you can often seem as complex as rocket science. It requires a major commitment of time effort, willpower and in some cases, money. 1 Below, experts walk you through the process of picking the diet that best meets your unique goals and needs. Assessing your individual goals and any specific health concerns is an important step of choosing the right diet for your health and lifestyle. You can reflect how they made you feel, both physically and mentally. Meanwhile, you should also take your present eating habits into account. 2 Starting a diet can be driven by a range of motivating factors. 3 You will, however, probably picture weight loss as the driving one, because of the repeated marketing from the weight-loss industry. New diet foods are continually introduced, often promising quick and easy results. But finding a diet that’s right for you is more than weight loss. 4 They encourage the consumption of whole or minimally processed foods, which include a variety of fruits and vegetables, quality protein, whole grains and healthy fats. They emphasize limiting added sugars and salt. They allow flexibility so that families can eat together or you can go out to dinner without worrying about what to eat. Change won’t happen overnight, and your diet is only one component of a balanced and sustainable approach to long-term lifestyle changes. 5 Rapid and extreme changes may be difficult to sustain and could have negative effects as a result. A．How does a diet work? B．What good diets have in common is that they are all about balance. C．But where do you begin? D．Which positive habits do you already have and wish to continue? E．The first thing to consider is to take a look at your past diets. F．Setting realistic expectations needs to allow for gradual adaptation. G．They include weight loss, disease prevention and saving money and the like. Passage 2 Hey there! If you’re looking to start the new year with a healthier relationship with food, I’ve got some diet resolutions for you. Let’s dive right into it and make this year the healthiest one yet! Drink more water Drinking enough water can make a big difference for your health. Aim for between 2.5 and 3.5 liters per day, and more if you work out. Leave a water bottle by your bedside and take a few sips when you wake up, or make a cup of herbal tea before you sit down at your desk. 6 , try adding in something more interesting like lemon juice. Sneak in more fiber Fiber is the material in plant-based foods our bodies can’t digest. For a long time, scientists thought of it as junk. 7 . In plants, fiber acts like a capsule for the nutrients the body uses, like sugar and fat, making it harder for our body to absorb them. So when we eat fiber-rich food, our body can absorb those nutrients more slowly and feel full for longer. 8 It’s easy, fun and, as an added bonus, may have health benefits. People who cook at home tend to have better overall health and closer personal relationships. To maximize its positive effects, take the time to enjoy meals. This means sharing the food with your family or enjoying the dishes you’ve prepared for yourself. 9 . Enjoy the food 10 . Otherwise, they won’t be sustainable. Don’t force yourself to drink water when you want a soda. Don’t force yourself to eat vegetables you dislike. Don’t expect yourself to cook meals if you come home exhausted. If the way you’re eating leaves you stressed, it isn’t good for your health, is it? A．Cook more at home B．If plain water bores you C．Take the time to enjoy meals D．Once you are extremely thirsty E．Currently, we know it’s essential F．Changes you make should lift your spirits G．Plus, you’ll save the money spent on takeaway food Passage 3 Tips for Starting a Plant-based Diet The benefits of a plant-based diet are many — from increased energy and better heart health to helping fight climate change and saving money. Not to mention the peace of mind with no longer eating cute cows and smart pigs. 11 Consider style and frequency. Some people decide right then and there that they will never eat a little meat again. It’s a good idea to consider your style goals and start from there. 12 If you want to start slowly, you can start by giving up meat one day or more a week or during certain times of the day. Don’t fall into the refined carb (碳水化合物) trap. We go vegetarian and replace that meat food in our diet with easy and inviting refined carbs: French fries, chips, you name it. 13 They will make you feel worse. Make sure to have healthy snacks around, and start your effort with a thoughtful menu plan. That way, you don’t end up hungry and reaching for the carbs. 14 While it might seem that the Internet’s plenty of food blogs have made cookbooks outdated, nothing could be further from the truth. Cookbooks provide something that the Internet can’t. Looking through the vegetarian section at a bookstore will introduce you to the wide variety of styles out there. Eat out and call it research. 15 But when you start a new eating plan, it can be a helpful resource. Learning how the professionals handle vegetarian cuisine can be inspiring. From high-end plant-based restaurants to your local supermarket salad bars, you can get a great sense of the wonderful range of flavors and possibilities that can be made without animal-based ingredients (原料). A．Eating out might be a luxury. B．Study up on the nutrition of whole grains; C．Buy some cookbooks. D．They will not make you feel better; E．Some people select to slip into it slowly. F．You’re making delicious, satisfying, amazing meals out of raw vegetables. G．The following tips will help you ease your way into the world of plant-based eating. Passage 4 The Happiest Diet Does what you eat affect your mood? Could your food have effects on your mental well-being? 16 Several ingredients and methods account for that. Fibre and more fibre We often worry about protein intake but data shows we usually get enough. 17 It supports gut (肠道) health, feeding good bacteria and contributing to overall well-being. Research even suggests that increasing fibre intake by 5g may lower the risk of depression by 5%. Fat is good 18 “Omega-3 fatty acids, found in oily fish, play a role in the structure and function of cell membranes (细胞膜) in the brain,” the nutritionist Rhiannon Lambert says. “They are involved in the production and signaling of neurotransmitters (神经递质), which are critical for mood regulation.” And breathe Your gut is impacted not just by what you eat but by how you eat. Lisa Macfarlane, co-founder of the health company The GutStuff, explains, “ 19 Try taking deep breath before you eat-it’s proven that digestion happens more effectively when eating in a relaxed and calm state.” Join the fast crowd A recent study by King’s College London found that eating within a ten-hour window. and therefore fasting for fourteen hours each day, is associated with better mood, better sleep, more energy and less hunger. 20 A．Add more protein to your regular diet. B．Need another reason to eat more oily fish? C．Instead, we should focus on our fibre intake. D．Beans are one of the highest sources of dietary fibre. E．This is easier than it sounds: it would mean eating between 9 a. m. and 7 p. m. F．We suggest putting your body in “rest and digest” mode instead of eating on the go. G．Evidence shows what you eat can promote brain chemicals that influence your mood. Passage 5 People only exhibit their best moments on social media. Some celebrities are airbrushed (美化) or hide the truth of their plastic surgery. Many people photoshop their faces and bodies to look exactly how they want. 21 It seems that all the people are in pursuit of presenting their best images. Beyond these “best images”, some social media heavily promote eating disorder culture and unhealthy attitudes about food and weight in general. Some social media also promote over-exercising. 22 However, pushing yourself too hard can be harmful and contributes to some eating disorders. When someone is exercising a lot, they need to eat more to fuel their body, but some people are often eating less than they should while pushing their bodies beyond the limit. 23 Basically, people who struggle with eating disorders tend to think that they aren’t “sick enough”. If they encounter others with eating disorders, they constantly compare themselves. Thus, people, using social media, need to avoid posting videos or pictures with body checking, constant weighing, or calorie counting. This type of content simply isn’t helpful for anyone. So if you feel like you need to lose weight, discuss it with your doctor and make a personalized plan. 24 As for me, I’ve learned a lot from my own struggle with an eating disorder. During my treatment, the most striking thing my nutritionist said to me was, “ 25 ” She’s absolutely right. Self-love isn’t always realistic; self-acceptance is much better. A．You need to love your body. B．Take yourself as what you are. C．Indeed, proper exercising is healthy. D．A lot of the actual photos are straight-up fake. E．There are countless methods of changing their bodies. F．Don’t listen to strangers who don’t know you or your body. G．It’s essential to avoid posting things that could cause body image issues. 话题4 诗歌 Passage 1 There are many poems about autumn and, to be honest, a lot of them sound the same. 1 But William Butler Yeats’s poetry makes a difference: his poem about swans, one of the greatest poems that this great Irish poet ever wrote, brings new life to the autumn poems. He does this with clear imagery (意象). 2 Swans had been there throughout the time that Yeats had spent at Coole Park, the home of his supporter Lady Gregory. Yeats’s point about the swans is that they, unlike a man, never grow old. Whenever he sees the swans, no matter how old he is, he tries and fails to count them. Before he has done the counting, they rise up from the still lake, “And scatter wheeling in great broken rings. Upon their clamorous wings.” It’s a great and clear image. 3 4 But we guess that he does not have their great passion and energy. His heart, perhaps, has grown cold, unlike the pairs of lover swans who swim together on the water surface or climb the air when they take off and fly. Another important feature of the poem is that Yeats knows the swans are mysterious and beautiful. They are mysterious because they are not humans. Their life is different from ours. Their reality is not our reality. 5 A．Yeats does not really talk about how different he is from the swans. B．Yeats is considered to be the greatest poet of all time. C．The main image of the poem is the view of the swans in the title — The Wild Swans at Coole. D．You can almost hear Yeats’s exclaiming (感叹) as he sees the swans' sudden movements. E．Swans have been a common topic for brilliant poets. F．Read a lot of them for a while and you will soon be bored! G．But the poet, inspired by what he sees, is moved to think about them and life in a new way. Passage 2 World Poetry Day is on 21st March, and reciting poems is a fantastic way to make the most of it. You could perform for your family at home. 6 Or you could even ask your teacher if you could recite a poem to your class. Reciting a poem is the perfect way to share a piece of work or an author you love with your friends Roger McGough is a poet and author whose new picture book Money-Go-Round came out last month. He says it’s of great benefit to recite poetry in many aspects. 7 “I was very keen on reciting poems as a child,” he says. “Performing them was like theatre. It brought them alive for me.” 8 Once you have picked a poem, McGough says that you don’t need to learn it by heart in order to recite it. “I always read from a book when I perform poetry.” Before performing your recital, spend plenty of time practising the poem and getting to know the words’ rhythms. “Try not to stop at the end of every line, especially if the sentences run on each other.” says McGough“ 9 With a lot of poetry, you’ re discovering the words as you’ve set off with words.” Many people might be concerned about feeling anxious. 10 Those who perform poetry well have learned to embrace(欣然接受) them. “I still get nervous when I go on stage,” says McGough. “But the more you perform, the easier it gets.” A．Reading is usually done alone. B．You could read a poem to your friends. C．Don’t worry about forgetting the words. D．It gives you confidence and helps with your reading. E．You are part of a group discussing what you’re reading. F．Get the sense of the poem as a whole, not just the words. G．The key to dealing with nerves is to realize everyone has them. Passage 3 How to Appreciate Poems Poems are unique and exceptional literary works that carry the core of the poet’s thoughts, emotions and creativity. Appreciating poems can be a rewarding and enriching experience, allowing us to explore different worlds and perspectives. 11 Here are some steps to help you better appreciate poems. Understand the background. It is essential to learn about the poets’ life and their personal experiences. 12 For example, many of Wilfred Owen’s poems are about the war, deeply influenced by his experiences. Thus, understanding that would enrich our appreciation of his work. Explore the imagery. Poets may use descriptive language related to the five senses: sight, sound, smell, taste and touch. A poem about a beautiful garden might use words to describe the colors of the flowers (sight), the buzzing of the bees (sound) and the sweet fragrance in the air (smell). 13 14 They can be about love, loss, nature, identity and many other universal concepts. Different readers may have different comprehension, and that’s part of the beauty of poetry. Discussing the poem with others can also bring out new perspectives and insights.   Connect with your emotions. Whether it makes you feel upset, sorrowful, angry or inspired, your emotional response is an important part of the appreciation process. 15 It can also make you see the world in a new way. Don’t be afraid to let the poem affect you and to explore why it makes you feel the way you do. A．Interpret the themes. B．Engage in discussion. C．Your emotional response is unique. D．But it can be tough without right approaches. E．Thus, the vivid picture can be kept in readers’ mind. F．A powerful poem can touch something deep within you. G．Besides, a poem written during a specific time may carry different themes. Passage 4 Writing a poem is about observing the world within or around you. A poem can be about anything, from love to loss to the rusty gate at the old farm. With the right approach, you can write a poem that you can be proud to share with others in the class or with your friends. Use concrete imagery. 16 you could always try to describe something using the five senses: smell, taste, touch, sight, and sound. Using concrete imagery will immerse your reader in the world of your poem and make images come alive for them. Include literary devices. Literary devices like metaphor and simile add variety and depth to your poetry. Using these devices can make your poem stand out to your reader. 17 Try to use literary devices throughout your poem, varying them so you do not use only metaphors or only similes in your writing. Take alliteration(头韵)as an example. It occurs when you use words in quick sequence that begin with the same letter, such as “Lucy let her luck linger.” 18 Avoid cliches(陈词滥调). Your poetry will be much stronger if you avoid cliches, which are phrases that have become so familiar they have lost their meaning. 19 . If you feel a certain phrase or image will be too familiar to your reader, replace it with a more unique phrase. 20 Poetry is made to be read out loud and you should write your poem with a focus on how it sounds on the page. It will allow you to play with the structure of your poem and your word choice. Notice how each line of your poem flows into one another and how placing one word next to another creates a certain sound. A．Write for the ear. B．Read out your poem. C．This helps you play with the way your poem sounds. D．It also allows you to paint a detailed picture for your reader. E．Meanwhile, use some imaginative descriptions in your poem. F．Instead, turn to creative descriptions and images in your poem. G．Avoid something abstract and go for specific descriptions in your poem. Passage 5 Poetry, with its rhythmic language and layered meanings, invites readers to explore emotions, ideas, and beauty beyond the literal. To fully engage with a poem, consider these methods to deepen your appreciation and understanding. Read aloud for rhythm and sound 21 Read the poem aloud slowly. Notice the rhythm, rhymes, or repeating sounds. For example, Edgar Allan Poe’s The Raven uses a tense beat, while Langston Hughes’ Dreams has a gentle flow. Do they sound cheerful, sad, or urgent? The “music” of a poem often mirrors its mood. 22 Understanding a poem’s historical, cultural, or biographical context enriches interpretation. It will help you a lot to find out when the poem was written or what the poet’s life was like. But don’t stress — even a quick Google search can add meaning. Accept confusion Poems don’t always have one right explanation. 23 Maybe Shakespeare’s Sonnet 18 is both a love poem and a joke about clichés (陈词滥调). Discuss with classmates — different views make poems more interesting! Let uncertainty spark curiosity. Connect the poem to your life Let your emotions guide your understanding. If a line reminds you of a personal experience, write down your thoughts or share them with a friend. 24 Poetry isn’t just about analysis — it’s about feeling and imagination. Appreciating poetry is both an art and a practice — requiring attention to form, context, and personal reflection. As Eliot wrote, poetry “communicates before it is understood”, inviting us to return, rethink, and rediscover its magic endlessly. 25 A．Poems are meant to be heard. B．Learn the background of the poem. C．Compare poems by different authors. D．Poetry is alive when it speaks to you. E．Practice memorizing your favorite lines. F．If a line feels puzzling, write down your guesses. G．Grab a poem, read it aloud, and let yourself enjoy the magic of it. $考前押题02 阅读七选五4大常考话题 话题1 个人保健 话题4 诗歌 话题2 环境保护 话题3 健康饮食 1 / 1 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 话题1 个人保健 Passage 1 Bedtime rituals (仪式) At the end of a long day, you might want to collapse in front of the TV and watch an episode of your favorite show but engaging in a regular bedtime ritual could actually help you sleep better. 1 And if you turn these bedtime activities into a ritual — that is, if you do them every night around the same time — you will be all the more likely to get the rest you need. What is a bedtime ritual? A bedtime ritual is a set of activities that you perform nightly in preparation for going to bed. 2 For children, 20 to 45 minutes should be enough time to wind down. Your bedtime ritual should include practices that help you relax, like having a cup of warm milk. It can also incorporate practical activities, like brushing your teeth or putting on pajamas. 3 How to Create Your Own Bedtime Ritual? There’s no formula for the perfect bedtime ritual, so you might want to try several different activities before settling on a consistent routine. What’s important is figuring out what works for you. 4 If you enjoy exercise and movement, try yoga or gentle stretching. If you find comfort in order, create a to-do list for the next day. If classical music soothes you, turn on some Bach or Mozart while you enjoy a bath. And remember to prioritize comfort. Whether your bedtime ritual takes place in bed or somewhere else, make sure your environment is relaxing. 5 When the time comes to fall asleep, you’ll be ready. A．Avoid activities known to interfere with sleep. B．For adults, bedtime rituals typically last 30 minutes to an hour. C．Start out with two or three activities that help you feel relaxed.

Let’s take a closer look. Sunlight provides vitamin D． Sunlight is the main way that your body gets its vitamin D — so much so that it’s sometimes called the “sunshine vitamin”! 11 “More than 90% of our vitamin D comes from sunlight exposure,” Dr. Garven says. Sunlight boosts mood. There’s a scientific reason why sunny days put a smile on your face: Sunlight seems to activate the production of serotonin (血清素), which carries messages between your nerve cells and throughout your body. 12 Sunlight helps regulate sleep patterns. This might seem strange (after all, most people are awake when the sun is out!), but sunlight plays an important role in regulating your sleep cycle. 13 While darkness tells your brain that it’s time to get ready to sleep. 14 Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) is a type of depression caused by a change in seasons and is often caused by a lack of sunlight. A 2024 study reports that spending more than one hour in daylight protects against depression symptoms. And in an older study, people with SAD who took a one-hour walk outdoors for a week reported a 50% improvement in their symptoms. 15 So, get outside and touch some grass. A．Sunlight contributes to growing taller. B．Sunlight improves symptoms of seasonal depression. C．The health benefits of sunlight exposure are undeniable. D．Dr. Garven notes research remains to be done to understand those effects. E．And it’s clear that vitamin D is an important mineral for our overall health. F．Getting sunlight early in the day helps signal to your brain that it’s time to be alarmed. G．This natural chemical is sometimes known as the “feel-good hormone (荷尔蒙)” because of its effect on mood. 【答案】11．E 12．G 13．F 14．B 15．C 【语篇导读】这是一篇说明文，文章主要介绍了阳光带来的好处。 11．上文“Sunlight is the main way that your body gets its vitamin D — so much so that it’s sometimes called the ‘sunshine vitamin’!(阳光是你的身体获得维生素D的主要途径，以至于它有时被称为‘阳光维生素’！)”提到阳光是身体获得维生素D的主要途径，后文“‘More than 90% of our vitamin D comes from sunlight exposure,’ Dr. Garven says.(‘我们体内90%以上的维生素D来自阳光照射，’Garven博士说)”引用Garven博士的话强调90%的维生素D来自阳光，选项E“很明显，维生素D对我们的整体健康是一种重要的矿物质”通过强调维生素D对健康的重要性来说明阳光照射的重要性，逻辑衔接自然，故选E。 12．根据本段小标题“Sunlight boosts mood.(阳光可以改善心情)”可知，本段主要讲阳光可以改善心情，结合上文“There’s a scientific reason why sunny days put a smile on your face: Sunlight seems to activate the production of serotonin (血清素), which carries messages between your nerve cells and throughout your body.(阳光明媚的日子会让你脸上露出笑容，这是有科学依据的：阳光似乎能激活血清素的分泌，血清素在神经细胞和全身之间传递信息)”可知，此处是解释阳光如何改善心情，提到阳光似乎能激活血清素的分泌，下文应是接着说血清素对心情的调节作用，G项“这种天然化学物质有时被称为‘感觉良好的激素’，因为它对情绪有影响”符合语境，故选G。 13．根据小标题“Sunlight helps regulate sleep patterns.(阳光有助于调节睡眠模式)”可知，本段讨论阳光调节睡眠周期，下文“While darkness tells your brain that it’s time to get ready to sleep.(而黑暗告诉你的大脑是时候准备睡觉了)”提到“黑暗提示入睡”，空白处需解释阳光如何促进清醒。选项F“在一天的早些时候接受阳光有助于向你的大脑发出信号，该警醒了”与后文形成对比，符合语境，故选F。 14．根据本段中“A 2024 study reports that spending more than one hour in daylight protects against depression symptoms. And in an older study, people with SAD who took a one-hour walk outdoors for a week reported a 50% improvement in their symptoms.(2024年的一项研究报告称，在日光下待一个多小时可以预防抑郁症状。在一项较早的研究中，患有SAD的人在户外散步一小时一周后，症状改善了50%)”可知，本段主要讲述阳光有助于改善SAD的症状，B项“阳光可以改善季节性抑郁症的症状”适合作为本段标题，故选B。 15．空处位于最后一段，应是起到总结上文的作用，结合下文“So, get outside and touch some grass.(所以，到外面去接触一下真实世界吧)”的因果关系可知，C项“阳光照射对健康的好处是不可否认的”总结了上文，且和下文形成因果关系，故选C。 Passage 4 Getting older means greater maturity and wisdom. 16 In a society that is aging fast, it has become crucial to find ways to prevent related mental and emotional disorders. Music emerges as a promising tool for promoting well-being of the elderly. Music has a great power to cause strong emotions and intense pleasure. 17 Singing and dancing to music with others is not only fun but also improves mood. Musical activities are great ways to reduce stress because they take our minds off problems. They also help us feel less lonely and more connected with other people. 18 A song may become a soundtrack for a particular time, such as a delightful party with friends that you had a long time ago. Listening to that song allows you to remember all the happy memories from that time. Finally, music contributes to keeping our thinking skills sharp. It makes our brains work hard in unique ways to understand the rhythm and melody. 19 For example, research demonstrates that listening to classical background music while performing cognitive tasks can enhance specific mental functions in elderly individuals, particularly processing speed and working memory capacity. In conclusion, music is a powerful tool to fight against aging-related emotional and cognitive problems. It is an enjoyable and social activity, available to anyone regardless of their background or previous musical experience. 20 A．Music can also open forgotten doors to our memories. B．Recalling happy memories can lift our mood on a bad day. C．Even passive music listening can help elderly adults think better. D．This helps people feel better when they are depressed or anxious. E．However, it often involves a series of physical and mental challenges. F．The ability to form new memories is essential for processing information. G．Therefore, simple strategies like this should be a key part of promoting healthy aging. 【答案】16．E 17．D 18．A 19．C 20．G 【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。文章探讨了音乐对老年人身心健康的积极影响，指出音乐能缓解情绪障碍、唤起美好回忆并增强认知能力，是促进健康老龄化的有效工具。 16．前文“Getting older means greater maturity and wisdom. (变老意味着更加成熟和智慧)”引出变老的话题，说明其积极的一面，后文“In a society that is aging fast, it has become crucial to find ways to prevent related mental and emotional disorders. (在一个快速老龄化的社会中，找到预防相关心理和情绪障碍的方法变得至关重要)”指出预防衰老带来的心理和情绪障碍的重要性，此处需要一个转折句，说明变老也伴随着挑战，因此E项“However, it often involves a series of physical and mental challenges. (然而，它也常常伴随着一系列的身心挑战)”符合语境，和前文构成转折，引出后文，其中的it指代前文的Getting older。故选E。 17．前文“Music has a great power to cause strong emotions and intense pleasure. (音乐有一种巨大的力量，能引起强烈的情感和强烈的快乐)”提到音乐对情绪的积极影响，此处应说明这种积极影响的用处，因此D项“This helps people feel better when they are depressed or anxious. (这有助于人们在抑郁或焦虑时感觉更好)”符合语境，承接前文，其中的This指代前一句内容。故选D。 18．后文“A song may become a soundtrack for a particular time, such as a delightful party with friends that you had a long time ago.

(音乐还能打开我们遗忘的记忆之门)”符合语境，统领后文内容。故选A。 19．前文“Finally, music contributes to keeping our thinking skills sharp. It makes our brains work hard in unique ways to understand the rhythm and melody. (最后，音乐有助于保持我们的思维能力敏锐。它使我们的大脑以独特的方式努力工作，以理解节奏和旋律)”指出音乐对思维的积极作用，后文“For example, research demonstrates that listening to classical background music while performing cognitive tasks can enhance specific mental functions in elderly individuals, particularly processing speed and working memory capacity. (例如，研究表明，在执行认知任务时听古典背景音乐可以增强老年人的特定心理功能，特别是处理速度和工作记忆容量)”举例说明古典音乐即使作为背景音乐，对老年人的认知功能也有促进作用，此处应说明非主动听音乐对思维也有益处，因此C项“Even passive music listening can help elderly adults think better. (即使是被动听音乐也能帮助老年人更好地思考)”符合语境，承接前文，后文是对其例证。故选C。 20．前文“In conclusion, music is a powerful tool to fight against aging-related emotional and cognitive problems. It is an enjoyable and social activity, available to anyone regardless of their background or previous musical experience. (总之，音乐是对抗与衰老相关的情绪和认知问题的有力工具。这是一项令人愉快的社交活动，任何人都可以参加，无论他们的背景或以前的音乐经历如何)”总结音乐能对抗衰老相关的情绪和认知问题，此处需要一个结论句，指出如何发挥音乐的这种作用，因此G项“Therefore, simple strategies like this should be a key part of promoting healthy aging. (因此，这样的简单策略应成为促进健康老龄化的关键部分)”符合语境，和前文是因果关系。故选G。 Passage 5 When we feel threatened or stressed, our brain produces chemicals which raise energy and sharpen focus, helping us react quickly to danger. 21 For example, the pressure of an upcoming performance might motivate you to practice harder. Studies also show that mild stress can improve memory by activating parts of the brain involved in learning. 22 Normally when we experience a stressful event, stress hormones (激素) are released for about 15 to 30 minutes. But if we face multiple or persistent stress day after day, we will suffer from problems like sleeplessness, brain fog, digestive issues, and even heart disease. So how much stress is too much stress? 23 Different factors like your genetics, environment, and even your age, can influence the way your body responds. But no matter what your situation is, there are tools that can make dealing with stress a bit easier. Physical activity is a powerful stress reducer. Exercise creates new brain cells, making it easier to recover. A run through the park or a basketball game with friends can be a great distraction (分心事) from whatever is stressing you out. 24 Interacting with friends or family can lower stress hormone levels. Simple mindfulness practices, like deep breathing or journaling, build awareness of our emotions and keep us focused on the present. While we can't avoid life's challenges, understanding our stress response and using these tools can help us face them more calmly and effectively. By managing stress wisely, we can turn it from an enemy into a friend. 25 A．Social connection also helps. B．Small amounts of stress can even be helpful. C．It may help us grow stronger and live healthier. D．However, problems arise when stress becomes constant. E．Today, though, we initiate this response in many situations. F．Doctors recommend regular check-ups to monitor stress levels. G．It's difficult to say, as not everyone experiences stress in the same way. 【答案】21．B 22．D 23．G 24．A 25．C 【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了压力对人的影响，适度的压力有益，而持续的压力会带来问题，同时还介绍了应对压力的方法，以及合理管理压力能带来的好处。 21．根据上文“When we feel threatened or stressed, our brain produces chemicals which raise energy and sharpen focus, helping us react quickly to danger.(当我们感到受到威胁或有压力时，我们的大脑会产生化学物质，这些物质会提高能量并增强注意力，帮助我们快速对危险做出反应)”以及下文“For example, the pressure of an upcoming performance might motivate you to practice harder. Studies also show that mild stress can improve memory by activating parts of the brain involved in learning.(例如，即将到来的表演的压力可能会激励你更努力地练习。研究还表明，轻微的压力可以通过激活大脑中参与学习的部分来提高记忆力)”可知，此处在说少量压力是有帮助的，与B项“Small amounts of stress can even be helpful.(少量的压力甚至可能是有益的)”表达的含义一致，故选B项。 22．根据下文“Normally when we experience a stressful event, stress hormones (激素) are released for about 15 to 30 minutes. But if we face multiple or persistent stress day after day, we will suffer from problems like sleeplessness, brain fog, digestive issues, and even heart disease.(通常，当我们经历一个压力事件时，压力激素会释放大约15到30分钟。但如果我们日复一日地面临多重或持续的压力，我们将遭受失眠、脑雾、消化问题，甚至心脏病等问题)”可知，此处在说当压力持续时就会出现问题，与D项“However, problems arise when stress becomes constant.(然而，当压力持续时，问题就会出现)”表达的意思一致，故选D项。 23．根据上文“So how much stress is too much stress? (那么，多少压力算压力过大呢？)”可知上文提出了“多少压力算压力过大”这么一个问题，再根据下文“Different factors like your genetics, environment, and even your age, can influence the way your body responds.(不同的因素，如你的基因、环境，甚至你的年龄，都会影响你的身体反应方式)”可知，下文说的是因为每个人情况不同，所以每个人的身体反应不同，可推理出空白处说的是因人而异导致很难说多少压力算过大，与G项“It's difficult to say, as not everyone experiences stress in the same way.(很难说，因为不是每个人经历压力的方式都一样)”表达的意思一致，故选G项。 24．根据上文“Physical activity is a powerful stress reducer. Exercise creates new brain cells, making it easier to recover. A run through the park or a basketball game with friends can be a great distraction (分心事) from whatever is stressing you out.(体育活动是一种强大的减压方式。锻炼会产生新的脑细胞，使恢复更容易。在公园跑步或和朋友打篮球可以很好地分散你对任何让你感到压力的事情的注意力)”可知上文说的是体育活动能减压，再根据下文“Interacting with friends or family can lower stress hormone levels.(与朋友或家人互动可以降低压力激素水平)”可知，下文说的是与朋友或家人互动可以降低压力激素水平，可知此处说的是有助于减压的方式，A项“Social connection also helps.(社交联系也有帮助)”中提到了“社交联系”，这也是一种有助于减压的方式，符合语境，故选A项。 25．根据上文“By managing stress wisely, we can turn it from an enemy into a friend. (通过明智地管理压力，我们可以把它从敌人变成朋友)”可知，上文说的是要明智地管理压力，化敌为友，可推理出此处在说合理管理压力能带来的好处，与C项“It may help us grow stronger and live healthier.(它可能帮助我们变得更强壮，生活得更健康)”表达的意思一致，进一步说明了好处，故选C 话题2 环境保护 Passage 1 Electronic waste (also known as e-waste) is discarded (丢弃的) electronic devices. Improper handling of this waste can lead to environmental damage. 1 Sell old electronics. One of the best and easiest methods of reducing the electronic waste footprint is to sell your electronic things to those in need. You get easy money while the buyer gets a nice device. 2 . You can sell unwanted devices by posting a local advertisement and meeting up with potential buyers. 3 . Donating electronics to the needy is also a practice followed by many. It will give the device a new life and make you feel good about yourself. If you decide to donate your old electronic devices when you don’t need them anymore, make sure to clear any information before you donate them. Learn to repair broken electronics. By learning to repair your electronics at home, you will gain more detailed knowledge of your device. Best of all, you will be able to continue using the device for longer. Re-evaluate. Always think twice before buying a new electronic device. Do you really need this new device? 4 ? If you answered “no” to any of the questions, then it might be best to re-evaluate your thoughts and avoid buying it. Spread the word. Let’s say you’ve been trying to reduce electronic waste. 5 ! Now, it’s time to share your knowledge with others who may be less aware of the dangers of e-waste. Next time you see a family member improperly getting rid of an old computer or buying a new smartphone for no reason, take time and share your knowledge of the harmful effects of their actions. A．Donate old electronics B．It is a win-win for both C．Recycle e-waste properly D．Is it a need or more of a want E．Do you want to make them more useful F．You’re doing your part, and that’s great G．Here are some ways of reducing electronic waste 【答案】1．G 2．B 3．A 4．D 5．F 【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了几种减少电子垃圾的方法。 1．根据空前“Electronic waste(also known as e-waste) is discarded (丢弃的) electronic devices. Improper handling of this waste can lead to environmental damage. (电子垃圾（也称为e-waste）是废弃的电子设备。这种废物处理不当会导致环境破坏。)”以及下文介绍的几种减少电子垃圾的方法，所以G项“这里有一些减少电子垃圾的方法”能承上启下，符合题意。故选G。 2．根据空前“You get easy money while the buyer gets a nice device. (你能轻松赚到钱，而买家能买到好设备。)”可知，买卖双方都从交易中获益，故B项“这是双赢的”顺承上文，符合题意。故选B。 3．根据空后“Donating electronics to the needy is also a practice followed by many. (向有需要的人捐赠电子产品也是许多人遵循的做法。)”可以推断出，这个空格应该填入一个与捐赠电子设备相关的主题句，故A项“捐赠旧电子设备”符合题意。故选A。 4．根据空前“Do you really need this new device? (你真的需要这个新设备吗？)”和空后“If you answered ‘no’ to any of the questions, then it might be best to re-evaluate your thoughts and avoid buying it. (如果你对任何一个问题的回答都是“不”，那么最好重新评估一下你的想法，不要轻信它。)”可以推断出，这里在讨论购买新设备的必要性，故D项“这是需求还是更多是欲望”符合题意。故选D。 5．根据空后“Now, it’s time to share your knowledge with others who may be less aware of the dangers of e-waste. (现在，是时候与那些可能不太了解电子垃圾危害的人分享你的知识了。)”可推断，空格处应该填入一个肯定句，表示读者已经在减少电子垃圾方面做出了努力，故F项“你正在尽你的一份力，这很好”符合。故选F。 Passage 2 If you’re a hiker or outdoor person, you know how important it can be to bring a snack with you on a long outdoor adventure. 6 But when you’re done with your apple, you can just throw the core away, right? While your banana skin or apple core will degrade when exposed to nature, it is not necessarily safe for the environment for you to do so. Here’s why. 7 If you’ve ever had a compost heap (堆肥堆), you know that when you throw something in the compost, it takes some time to biodegrade and turn into rich, dark soil. Compost heaps are often the most ideal places for this organic matter to break down. 8 Next, leaving food waste could harm wildlife. If you leave an apple core near your favorite outdoor adventure spot, a deer may come along and decide to finish eating it for you. 9 However, feeding wildlife increases habituation. If an animal becomes habituated to finding apple cores along roadsides, for example, it increases the likelihood that it will be hurt or killed by passing traffic. Ultimately, the best practice when experiencing nature is to pack out everything that you pack in, even biodegradable food waste. Humans have systems in place for dealing with the quantity of organic food waste we produce. 10 A．The deer may be happy with the find. B．Do remember to bring your favorite snack. C．First, food waste might not degrade quickly. D．Finally, this might attract a group of wild deer. E．The ground near your favorite local hiking path is not. F．Nature, on the other hand, may have a harder time dealing with our waste. G．A banana, apple, or some other snack can make all the difference to how far you can go. 【答案】6．G 7．C 8．E 9．A 10．F 【语篇导读】本文为一篇说明文。文章主要解释了为什么不能将果核、果皮等残渣扔在自然环境中。 6．根据空前“If you’re a hiker or outdoor person, you know how important it can be to bring a snack with you on a long outdoor adventure.(如果你是一个徒步旅行者或户外爱好者，你知道在漫长的户外探险中带零食有多重要)”和空后“But when you're done with your apple, you can just throw the core away, right?(但当你吃完苹果后，你可以直接扔掉果核，对吧？)”可知，空前提到了在漫长的户外探险中带零食的重要性，空后提出吃完苹果会将直接扔掉果核，故G项“一个香蕉、苹果或其他零食可以决定你能走多远”符合，承接前文，强调户外活动带零食的重要性，且引出后文关于仍苹果核的话题。故选G项。 7．根据空后“If you’ve ever had a compost heap (堆肥堆) , you know that when you throw something in the compost, it takes some time to biodegrade and turn into rich, dark soil.(如果你曾经有过堆肥堆，你知道当你把东西扔进堆肥时，它需要一些时间来生物降解并变成肥沃的土壤)”可知，空后提到将垃圾扔进堆肥，需要花费一些时间来生物降解，故C项“首先，食物残渣可能不会快速降解”作为本段的主旨句，说明食物降解需要时间。故选C项。 8．根据空前“Compost heaps are often the most ideal places for this organic matter to break down.(堆肥堆通常是这种有机物质分解的最理想场所)”可知，空前提到堆肥堆是有机物质分解的最理想的场所，故E项“你最喜欢的徒步路径附近的地面不是”与堆肥形成对比，说明自然环境不适合降解。故选E项。 9．根据空前“If you leave an apple core near your favorite outdoor adventure spot, a deer may come along and decide to finish eating it for you.(如果你在你喜欢的户外探险地点附近留下一个苹果核，一只鹿可能会过来决定帮你吃掉它)”可知，空前提到鹿可能会吃掉你留下的食物残渣，故A项“鹿可能会对这个发现感到高兴”承接前文，并与后文“However, feeding wildlife increases habituation.(然而，喂养野生动物会增加它们的习惯化)”构成转折关系。故选A项。 10．根据空前“Humans have systems in place for dealing with the quantity of organic food waste we produce.(人类有系统处理我们产生的大量有机食物残渣)”可知，前文提到人类有处理食物残渣的系统，故F项“另一方面，自然可能更难处理我们的垃圾”与人类系统形成对比，人类有处理食物残渣的系统，但自然很难处理我们的垃圾。故选F项。 Passage 3 Humankind has tried to improve its standard of living since the very beginning of civilization. Back then, and today, providing food was the basic task for a person. 11 People feel the need for not only some primary things, such as bread and shelters, but also for various facilities and luxuries. Providing humanity with these things is connected to the use of natural resources, which requires energy. 12 , so economic growth is almost inevitably (不可避免地) associated with environmental damage. 13 The first of these is the fact that in order to produce more goods and products, at a faster rate, the construction of large industrial plants is required. These plants produce a lot of waste, which may cause negative long-term health effects to nearby populations of animals, or people. The traditional energy sources, which are commonly used nowadays, are considered to be the greatest polluters to the environment. There also exist so-called eco-friendly sources of energy. 14 Of course, during this time people have to make some sacrifices to support these undertakings. In order to produce practical energy, a transformation of the natural site is often inevitable. This is expensive and, has harmful effects on the environment. Application of wind energy would block airflow’s natural speed. Consequently, the pressure balance that is brought about by this current will be affected, and it is important to remember that the environment and weather conditions are directly affected by atmospheric pressure. 15 This is the embarrassment mankind has to deal with. A good balance between economic development and sustainability is forever what humankind has to keep in mind. A．There are certain aspects of economic growth which affect the environment. B．Clean energy has always been on the priority list for a better environment. C．For these reasons, bringing about economic growth without any resulting environmental damage is impossible. D．However, nowadays the range of required goods has expanded significantly. E．So humankind began to make exploration to satisfy themselves economically and mentally. F．They are sometimes preferred but replacing the traditional sources with them also requires time. G．In turn, the common sources of energy we use today cause pollution 【答案】11．D 12．G 13．A 14．F 15．C 【语篇导读】本文是篇说明文。文章主要说明了经济发展与环境危害之间无法避免的关系。 11．根据上句“Back then, and today, providing food was the basic task for a person.(无论是过去还是现在，提供食物都是一个人的基本任务。)”和下句“People feel the need for not only some primary things, such as bread and shelters, but also for various facilities and luxuries.(人们不仅需要一些基本的东西，如面包和住所，而且需要各种设施和奢侈品。)”可知，空处应该与上句形成转折关系，表明虽然食物是人们的基本需求，但是人们的需求已经扩大；选项D. However, nowadays the range of required goods has expanded significantly.(然而，如今所需商品的范围已经大大扩大了。)与上句句意转折，指出了人们的需求范围已扩大，下句具体说明了人们除食物外所需的东西，承上启下，符合语境。故选D。 12．根据上句“Providing humanity with these things is connected to the use of natural resources, which requires energy.(为人类提供这些东西与自然资源的使用有关，这需要能源。)”可知，经济增长需要能源，而下句“so economic growth is almost inevitably (不可避免地) associated with environmental damage.(因此，经济增长几乎不可避免地与环境破坏联系在一起。)”表示经济增长与环境破坏相关联，说明空处应表示能源使用会破坏环境；选项G. In turn, the common sources of energy we use today cause pollution(反过来，我们今天使用的普通能源也会造成污染)指出了使用能源会造成环境污染，与下句形成因果关系，语意衔接合理。故选G。 13．根据上句“so economic growth is almost inevitably (不可避免地) associated with environmental damage.(因此，经济增长几乎不可避免地与环境破坏联系在一起。)”和下句“The first of these is the fact that in order to produce more goods and products, at a faster rate, the construction of large industrial plants is required.(首先，为了以更快的速度生产更多的商品和产品，需要建设大型工业工厂。)”可知，空处应指破坏环境的经济增长的行为；选项A. There are certain aspects of economic growth which affect the environment.( 经济增长的某些方面会影响环境。)符合这层含义，下句中的“these”指代其中的“aspects”，语意连贯，符合语境。故选A。 14．根据上句“There also exist so-called eco-friendly sources of energy.(也有所谓的环保能源。)”和下句“Of course, during this time people have to make some sacrifices to support these undertakings.(当然，在这段时间里，人们必须做出一些牺牲来支持这些事业。)”可知，空处应该承接上句中的“eco-friendly sources of energy”，并衔接下句中的“this time”，选项F. They are sometimes preferred but replacing the traditional sources with them also requires time.(它们有时是首选，但用它们取代传统来源也需要时间。)中的“They”指代上句中的环保能源，“time”与下句中的“this time”相对应，语意连贯，承上启下。故选F。 15．根据上文“In order to produce practical energy, a transformation of the natural site is often inevitable. This is expensive and, has harmful effects on the environment. Application of wind energy would block airflow’s natural speed. Consequently, the pressure balance that is brought about by this current will be affected, and it is important to remember that the environment and weather conditions are directly affected by atmospheric pressure.(为了产生实用的能源，对自然场地的改造往往是不可避免的。这是昂贵的，对环境有有害的影响。风能的使用会阻碍气流的自然速度。因此，这股洋流带来的压力平衡将受到影响，重要的是要记住，环境和天气状况直接受到大气压力的影响。)”和下句“This is the embarrassment mankind has to deal with.(这是人类必须面对的尴尬。)”可知，空处应表示由于上文所述的原因给人类带来的尴尬境况；选项C. For these reasons, bringing about economic growth without any resulting environmental damage is impossible.(由于这些原因，实现经济增长而不造成任何环境破坏是不可能的。)中的“these reasons”指代上文所描述的原因，说明了实现经济增长必然会造成环境破坏这种尴尬境况，承上启下，符合语境。故选C。 Passage 4 If you’re looking for something fun to do, pack a picnic dinner and take your family or friends to a beautiful place to eat. However, there’s a wrong trend—viewing picnics as an excuse to transport food in single-use plastic containers. Sure, it means the clean-up is easy at the moment, but it just puts it off to a later point, when it takes the form of the volunteer clean-up and landfill management. 16 What follows is advice on how to pack such a picnic. Use food containers wisely Using reusable containers is the easiest way to reduce waste. 17 For example, to reduce packaging, you can take along things like a loaf of bread, a whole watermelon, whole vegetables, a knife and a board to cut your food when you’re ready to eat. These things don’t have to be done and sealed before you leave the house. 18 Using washable dishes for a picnic does not require much more work than single-use ones. You’d have to carry the waste out anyway in a trash bag, so why not pack your dirty plates into a bag and put them in the dishwasher at home? If you’re worried about breaking, take some solid camping plates. Think about the drinks Forget the single-use, single-serve drink bottles. 19 Fill personal water bottles with water, juice or lemonade at home. Compared with a single-use plastic cup, they have the added advantage of keeping your drinks cold for longer. Put cloth bags to good use Cloth bags are amazing. I use them for so much more than just buying food at the store. They’re perfect for packing sandwiches, dried or fresh fruit, and other snack foods. You can use them to pack glasses or plates to prevent breaking. They can also work as a napkin, tea towel, or garbage bag if needed. 20 A．Clean up the waste B．Avoid plastic plates C．Be sure to add a few to your picnic basket. D．There are some healthy dishes you can make or buy. E．To prevent this, a plastic-free picnic can be a brilliant idea. F．These create a huge amount of waste, which can be easily avoided. G．In addition, keep in mind that you don’t have to pre-pack everything. 【答案】16．E 17．G 18．B 19．F 20．C 【语篇导读】本文是说明文。文章讲述无塑料野餐，并给出了具体的建议。 16．上文“Sure, it means the cleanup is easy at the moment, but it just puts it off to a later point, when it takes the form of volunteer cleanups and landfill management.(当然，这意味着目前的清理工作很容易，但这只是把它推迟到以后，那时候它表现为志愿清理和垃圾填埋场管理的形式。)”讲述这些一次性塑料容器最终被志愿者清理或者进入垃圾填埋场，下文“What follows is advice on how to pack such a picnic.( 以下是关于如何打包这样的野餐的建议。)”和下文对建议的具体解释可知，下文提出一些避免塑料垃圾的有效建议，E项“为了避免这种情况，无塑料野餐是一个不错的主意。”符合语境，承上启下。故选E。 17．上文“Using reusable containers is the easiest way to reduce waste.(使用可重复使用的容器是减少浪费最简单的方法。)”讲述使用可重复的容器可以减少浪费，下文“For example, to reduce packaging, you can take along things like a loaf of bread(例如，为了减少包装，你可以随身携带一包面包之类的东西……)”讲述了几种减少包装的方法，G项中的“don’t have to pre-pack everything(不必提前打包)”与之呼应，因此推断G项“此外，请记住，你不必预先打包所有的东西。”符合语境，与上文是递进关系，故选G。 18．下文“Using washable dishes for a picnic does not require much more work than single-use ones.(在野餐时使用可洗的盘子并不需要比一次性使用的盘子做更多的工作。)”可推断出本段主要讲的是塑料盘子并不比可洗的盘子方便，因此推断B项“避免使用塑料盘子。”符合语境，且形式上符合段落小标题的结构。故选B。 19．上文“Forget the single-use, single-serve drink bottles.(忘记那些一次性使用、一次性服务的饮料瓶吧。)”说明不要使用一次性饮料瓶，下文“Fill a large thermos (保温瓶) or personal water bottles with water, juice or lemonade at home. Compared with a single-use plastic cup, they have the added advantage of keeping your drinks colder for longer.(在家里把一个大保温瓶或个人水瓶装满水、果汁或柠檬水。与一次性塑料杯相比，它们还有一个额外的优势，可以让你的饮料保持更长时间的低温。)”建议使用大保温瓶和水瓶装饮料，F项中的“These create a huge amount of waste”是上文使用一次性饮料瓶的结果，下文的建议是对避免这种浪费的做法，因此推断F项“这些都造成大量的浪费，这是很容易避免的。”符合语境，承上启下，these指代上文提到的drink bottles。故选F。 20．上文“They’re perfect for packing sandwiches, dried or whole fruit, and other snack foods. You can use them to pack glasses or plates to prevent breaking. They can also work as a napkin, tea towel, or trash bag if needed.( 它们非常适合包装三明治、干果或水果以及其他零食。你可以用它们来包装杯子或盘子，以防止破碎。如果需要的话，它们也可以用作餐巾、茶巾或垃圾袋。)”讲述了使用布袋的益处，因此推断携带几个布袋是必要的，C项“一定要在你的野餐篮子里加几个。”符合语境。故选C。 Passage 5 Have you ever thought about pouring used cooking oil down the sink? Just turn on the tap and flush (冲走) it all away. 21 Not only does this bad habit cause problems in your house, backyard, or neighborhood, but pouring such substances down the sink also creates widespread problems for the entire wastewater system and the workers responsible for its maintenance. The smooth day-to-day operation of our wastewater collection and treatment relies on the cooperation of people to “do the right thing”. Many water management authorities across Australia are in broad agreement: Please don’t pour oils down the sink. They all offer advice on far better alternatives. But the water industry has no control over what we do in the privacy of our homes. 22 When still hot, oils are often liquid and can be easily poured away. But down in the sewer (下水道) pipes, they rapidly cool and solidify. 23 According to Western Australia’s Water Corporation, it is estimated that 30% of sewer blockages are due to oils. 24 Think about hair and so-called “flushable wipes”. They can build up over time, creating “fatbergs”: horrible masses of wipes, hair,hardened oils and other waste. Oils act as the glue that helps fatbergs build up at choke points in sewer systems. There are more responsible ways of handling oils than just flushing them away. 25 Small amounts of cooking oil can safely be composted (制成堆肥). Even just pouring oils into the rubbish is better. But remember, you may need to cool hot oils down before putting them into the bin. A．It is really up to us. B．Please don’t do that. C．Blocked sewers are bad for us. D．Some engines can run on cooking oil. E．This is a serious and common problem. F．Cooking oil can actually be recycled and used to make biofuels. G．Oils also cause trouble by combining with other flushed-away materials. 【答案】21．B 22．A 23．E 24．G 25．F 【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了将用过的食用油倒入下水道会带来一系列问题，并给出了处理食用油更负责任的方法。 21．上文“Have you ever thought about pouring used cooking oil down the sink? Just turn on the tap and flush it all away.(你有没有想过把用过的食用油倒进下水道？只要打开水龙头，把它们全部冲走。)”提出了一个设想，即把用过的食用油倒进下水道里然后冲走，下文“Not only does this bad habit cause problems in your house, backyard, or neighborhood, but pouring such substances down the sink also creates widespread problems for the entire wastewater system and the workers responsible for its maintenance.(这种坏习惯不仅会给你的房子、后院或邻居带来问题，而且将这类物质倒入下水道还会给整个废水系统以及负责维护该系统的工作人员带来广泛的问题。)”指出了这种习惯带来的问题，由此可知，把用过的食用油倒进下水道然后冲走是一个坏习惯，会带来一系列问题，所以空白处应是对这一设想的否定，即不要这样做。B选项“请不要这样做”符合语境。故选B。 22．根据上文“But the water industry has no control over what we do in the privacy of our homes.(但水务行业无法控制我们在家中私密空间的行为。)”可知，水务行业无法控制我们在家里的行为，所以处理用过的食用油这件事取决于我们自己。A选项“这真的取决于我们”承接上文，符合语境。故选A。 23．根据上文“When still hot, oils are often liquid and can be easily poured away. But down in the sewer pipes, they rapidly cool and solidify.(油在热的时候通常是液体，可以很容易地倒掉。但在下水道管道里，它们会迅速冷却并凝固。)”可知，油在下水道管道里会迅速冷却并凝固，这是一个严重而普遍的问题。E选项“这是一个严重而普遍的问题”符合语境。故选E。 24．根据下文“Think about hair and so-called ‘flushable wipes’. They can build up over time, creating ‘fatbergs’: horrible masses of wipes, hair, hardened oils and other waste. Oils act as the glue that helps fatbergs build up at choke points in sewer systems.(想想头发和所谓的‘可冲洗湿巾’。随着时间的推移，它们会不断积累，形成‘脂肪山’：可怕的湿巾、头发、硬化的油脂和其他废物的堆积。油脂就像胶水一样，帮助脂肪山在下水道系统的堵塞点堆积起来。)”可知，油还会与其他被冲走的物质结合，从而造成麻烦，G选项中的also表示递进关系，G选项“油还会与其他被冲走的物质结合，从而造成麻烦”引出下文，符合语境。故选G。 25．根据上文“There are more responsible ways of handling oils than just flushing them away.(处理油脂的方法有很多，比仅仅把它们冲走更负责任。)和下文“Small amounts of cooking oil can safely be composted. Even just pouring oils into the rubbish is better. But remember, you may need to cool hot oils down before putting them into the bin.(少量的食用油可以安全地堆肥。甚至只是把油倒进垃圾里也比冲走好。但要记住，把油放进垃圾桶之前，你可能需要先把热油冷却。)”可知，本段介绍了一些处理食用油的更负责任的方法，F选项“食用油实际上可以回收并用来制造生物燃料”也是处理食用油的一种更负责任的方法，符合语境。故选F。 话题3 健康饮食 Passage 1 Choosing the best diet for you can often seem as complex as rocket science. It requires a major commitment of time effort, willpower and in some cases, money. 1 Below, experts walk you through the process of picking the diet that best meets your unique goals and needs. Assessing your individual goals and any specific health concerns is an important step of choosing the right diet for your health and lifestyle. You can reflect how they made you feel, both physically and mentally. Meanwhile, you should also take your present eating habits into account. 2 Starting a diet can be driven by a range of motivating factors. 3 You will, however, probably picture weight loss as the driving one, because of the repeated marketing from the weight-loss industry. New diet foods are continually introduced, often promising quick and easy results. But finding a diet that’s right for you is more than weight loss. 4 They encourage the consumption of whole or minimally processed foods, which include a variety of fruits and vegetables, quality protein, whole grains and healthy fats. They emphasize limiting added sugars and salt. They allow flexibility so that families can eat together or you can go out to dinner without worrying about what to eat. Change won’t happen overnight, and your diet is only one component of a balanced and sustainable approach to long-term lifestyle changes. 5 Rapid and extreme changes may be difficult to sustain and could have negative effects as a result. A．How does a diet work? B．What good diets have in common is that they are all about balance. C．But where do you begin? D．Which positive habits do you already have and wish to continue? E．The first thing to consider is to take a look at your past diets. F．Setting realistic expectations needs to allow for gradual adaptation.

If you’re looking to start the new year with a healthier relationship with food, I’ve got some diet resolutions for you. Let’s dive right into it and make this year the healthiest one yet! Drink more water Drinking enough water can make a big difference for your health. Aim for between 2.5 and 3.5 liters per day, and more if you work out. Leave a water bottle by your bedside and take a few sips when you wake up, or make a cup of herbal tea before you sit down at your desk. 6 , try adding in something more interesting like lemon juice. Sneak in more fiber Fiber is the material in plant-based foods our bodies can’t digest. For a long time, scientists thought of it as junk. 7 . In plants, fiber acts like a capsule for the nutrients the body uses, like sugar and fat, making it harder for our body to absorb them. So when we eat fiber-rich food, our body can absorb those nutrients more slowly and feel full for longer. 8 It’s easy, fun and, as an added bonus, may have health benefits. People who cook at home tend to have better overall health and closer personal relationships. To maximize its positive effects, take the time to enjoy meals. This means sharing the food with your family or enjoying the dishes you’ve prepared for yourself. 9 . Enjoy the food 10 . Otherwise, they won’t be sustainable. Don’t force yourself to drink water when you want a soda. Don’t force yourself to eat vegetables you dislike. Don’t expect yourself to cook meals if you come home exhausted.

Not to mention the peace of mind with no longer eating cute cows and smart pigs. 11 Consider style and frequency. Some people decide right then and there that they will never eat a little meat again. It’s a good idea to consider your style goals and start from there. 12 If you want to start slowly, you can start by giving up meat one day or more a week or during certain times of the day. Don’t fall into the refined carb (碳水化合物) trap. We go vegetarian and replace that meat food in our diet with easy and inviting refined carbs: French fries, chips, you name it. 13 They will make you feel worse. Make sure to have healthy snacks around, and start your effort with a thoughtful menu plan. That way, you don’t end up hungry and reaching for the carbs. 14 While it might seem that the Internet’s plenty of food blogs have made cookbooks outdated, nothing could be further from the truth. Cookbooks provide something that the Internet can’t. Looking through the vegetarian section at a bookstore will introduce you to the wide variety of styles out there. Eat out and call it research. 15 But when you start a new eating plan, it can be a helpful resource. Learning how the professionals handle vegetarian cuisine can be inspiring. From high-end plant-based restaurants to your local supermarket salad bars, you can get a great sense of the wonderful range of flavors and possibilities that can be made without animal-based ingredients (原料). A．Eating out might be a luxury. B．Study up on the nutrition of whole grains; C．Buy some cookbooks. D．They will not make you feel better; E．Some people select to slip into it slowly. F．You’re making delicious, satisfying, amazing meals out of raw vegetables. G．The following tips will help you ease your way into the world of plant-based eating. 【答案】11．G 12．E 13．D 14．C 15．A 【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了开始植物性饮食的几点建议，包括风格选择、避免精制碳水化合物、购买烹饪书和外出就餐等。 11．上文“The benefits of a plant-based diet are many — from increased energy and better heart health to helping fight climate change and saving money. Not to mention the peace of mind with no longer eating cute cows and smart pigs. (植物性饮食的好处有很多——从增加能量和改善心脏健康到帮助应对气候变化和省钱。更不用说不再吃可爱的牛和聪明的猪所带来的内心平静了)”讲述了植物性饮食的好处，下文给出了开始植物性饮食的建议，所以空处需要一个过渡句，引出下文的建议。G选项“The following tips will help you ease your way into the world of plant-based eating. (以下建议将帮助你轻松进入植物性饮食的世界)”起到了承上启下的作用，符合语境。故选G。 12．上文“Some people decide right then and there that they will never eat a little meat again. It’s a good idea to consider your style goals and start from there. (有些人当时就决定再也不吃一点肉了。考虑你的风格目标并从那里开始是个好主意)”提到有些人决定不再吃肉，空处应承接上文，继续说明其他人对于开始植物性饮食的态度。E选项“Some people select to slip into it slowly. (有些人选择慢慢开始)”与上文形成对比，符合语境。故选E。 13．上文“We go vegetarian and replace that meat food in our diet with easy and inviting refined carbs: French fries, chips, you name it. (我们成为素食主义者，用简单诱人的精制碳水化合物代替饮食中的肉类食物：炸薯条、薯片，你能想到的都有)”提到人们用精制碳水化合物代替肉类；下文“they will make you feel worse. (它们会让你感觉更糟)”指出这种做法的负面影响，所以空处应说明上文行为的影响。D选项“They will not make you feel better; (它们不会让你感觉更好；)”中“they”指代前文的“refined carbs”，符合语境。故选D。 14．设空处为小标题；下文“While it might seem that the Internet’s plenty of food blogs have made cookbooks outdated, nothing could be further from the truth. Cookbooks provide something that the Internet can’t. (虽然互联网上的大量美食博客似乎让食谱变得过时了，但事实远非如此。食谱提供了互联网无法提供的东西)”提到食谱有其独特的价值，所以本段主要说的是食谱的重要性。C选项“Buy some cookbooks. (买一些食谱)”能够概括这一段的主旨，符合语境。故选C。 15．下文“But when you start a new eating plan, it can be a helpful resource. Learning how the professionals handle vegetarian cuisine can be inspiring. (但当你开始一项新的饮食计划时，外出就餐会是一个很有用的资源。了解专业人士是如何制作素食菜肴的可能会给你带来启发)”中的But表示转折，说明空处与下文意思相反，即外出就餐可能不是很有帮助。A选项“Eating out might be a luxury. (外出就餐可能是一种奢侈)”与下文形成转折关系，说明虽然外出就餐可能花费较高，但在新饮食计划中是有帮助的，符合语境。故选A。 Passage 4 The Happiest Diet Does what you eat affect your mood?

Research even suggests that increasing fibre intake by 5g may lower the risk of depression by 5%. Fat is good 18 “Omega-3 fatty acids, found in oily fish, play a role in the structure and function of cell membranes (细胞膜) in the brain,” the nutritionist Rhiannon Lambert says. “They are involved in the production and signaling of neurotransmitters (神经递质), which are critical for mood regulation.” And breathe Your gut is impacted not just by what you eat but by how you eat. Lisa Macfarlane, co-founder of the health company The GutStuff, explains, “ 19 Try taking deep breath before you eat-it’s proven that digestion happens more effectively when eating in a relaxed and calm state.” Join the fast crowd A recent study by King’s College London found that eating within a ten-hour window. and therefore fasting for fourteen hours each day, is associated with better mood, better sleep, more energy and less hunger. 20 A．Add more protein to your regular diet. B．Need another reason to eat more oily fish? C．Instead, we should focus on our fibre intake. D．Beans are one of the highest sources of dietary fibre.

(相反，我们应该关注我们的纤维摄入量)”与上文构成转折关系，指出我们不应该再过分关注蛋白质摄入，而应该转而关注纤维的摄入量，同时引出下文“It supports gut health, feeding good bacteria and contributing to overall well-being. (它支持肠道健康，喂养有益细菌，有助于整体健康。)”对纤维作用的介绍，上下文语意连贯。故选C项。 18．下文“Omega-3 fatty acids, found in oily fish, play a role in the structure and function of cell membranes in the brain, (在油性鱼类中发现的Omega-3脂肪酸在大脑细胞膜的结构和功能中起着重要作用)”引用了营养师Rhiannon Lambert的话，介绍了油性鱼中的Omega-3脂肪酸对大脑细胞膜结构和功能的作用，回答了B选项“Need another reason to eat more oily fish?

(吃饭前试着深呼吸——事实证明，在放松和平静的状态下吃饭，消化会更有效。)”建议吃饭前尝试深呼吸。F选项“We suggest putting your body in ‘rest and digest’ mode instead of eating on the go.

Some celebrities are airbrushed (美化) or hide the truth of their plastic surgery. Many people photoshop their faces and bodies to look exactly how they want. 21 It seems that all the people are in pursuit of presenting their best images. Beyond these “best images”, some social media heavily promote eating disorder culture and unhealthy attitudes about food and weight in general. Some social media also promote over-exercising. 22 However, pushing yourself too hard can be harmful and contributes to some eating disorders. When someone is exercising a lot, they need to eat more to fuel their body, but some people are often eating less than they should while pushing their bodies beyond the limit. 23 Basically, people who struggle with eating disorders tend to think that they aren’t “sick enough”. If they encounter others with eating disorders, they constantly compare themselves. Thus, people, using social media, need to avoid posting videos or pictures with body checking, constant weighing, or calorie counting. This type of content simply isn’t helpful for anyone. So if you feel like you need to lose weight, discuss it with your doctor and make a personalized plan. 24 As for me, I’ve learned a lot from my own struggle with an eating disorder. During my treatment, the most striking thing my nutritionist said to me was, “ 25 ” She’s absolutely right. Self-love isn’t always realistic; self-acceptance is much better. A．You need to love your body. B．Take yourself as what you are. C．Indeed, proper exercising is healthy. D．A lot of the actual photos are straight-up fake. E．There are countless methods of changing their bodies. F．Don’t listen to strangers who don’t know you or your body. G．It’s essential to avoid posting things that could cause body image issues. 【答案】21．E 22．C 23．G 24．F 25．B 【语篇导读】这是一篇说明文。文章论述了社交视频平台造成人们饮食失调的问题。 21．根据上文“People only exhibit their best moments on social media. Some celebrities are airbrushed (美化) or hide the truth of their plastic surgery. Many people photoshop their faces and bodies to look exactly how they want. (人们只会在社交媒体上展示自己最美好的时刻。一些名人被美化或隐瞒他们整容的真相。许多人把自己的脸和身体PS成他们想要的样子。)”可知，前文列举了社交媒体上很多使自己变美的例子，故此空是对前文的总结，故E选项“有无数的方法可以改变他们的身体。”符合语境，故选E。 22．根据上文“Beyond these “best images”, some social media heavily promote eating disorder culture and unhealthy attitudes about food and weight in general. Some social media also promote over-exercising. (除了这些“最佳图片”，一些社交媒体还大力宣传饮食失调文化，以及对食物和体重的不健康态度。一些社交媒体也提倡过度锻炼。)”以及后文“However, pushing yourself too hard can be harmful and contributes to some eating disorders .(然而，把自己逼迫太厉害也可能是有害的。)”可知，上文提到一些视频平台还大力宣传饮食失调文化以及对食物和体重的不健康态度。很多同样的创造者也在提倡过度锻炼，本句与后文构成转折，指出适当的锻炼是有好处的。故C选项“的确，适当的运动有益于健康。”符合语境，故选C。 23．根据后文“Basically, people who struggle with eating disorders tend to think that they aren’t “sick enough”. If they encounter others with eating disorders, they constantly compare themselves. Thus, people, using social media, need to avoid posting videos or pictures with body checking, constant weighing, or calorie counting. This type of content simply isn’t helpful for anyone. So if you feel like you need to lose weight, discuss it with your doctor and make a personalized plan. (基本上，与饮食失调作斗争的人倾向于认为他们“病得还不够”。如果他们遇到其他饮食失调的人，他们会不断地比较自己。因此，人们在使用社交媒体时，需要避免发布检查身体、持续称重或计算卡路里的视频或图片。这种类型的内容对任何人都没有帮助。所以，如果你觉得你需要减肥，和你的医生讨论一下，制定一个个性化的计划。)”可知，后文提到那些与饮食失调作斗争的人往往认为自己“病得不够重”。如果他们遇到其他饮食失调的人，他们会不断地比较。因此，创作者需要避免发布带有身体检查、强迫性的称重或卡路里计算的视频或图片。故G选项“避免发布可能引起身体形象问题的东西是很重要的。”符合语境，故选G。 24．根据上文“So if you feel like you need to lose weight, discuss it with your doctor and make a personalized plan. (所以，如果你觉得你需要减肥，和你的医生讨论一下，制定一个个性化的计划。)”可知，上文建议和医生讨论制定减肥计划，推测本句是在说明关于减肥建议的注意事项。故F选项“不要听不了解你和你身体的陌生人的话。”符合语境，故选F。 25．根据后文“Self-love isn’t always realistic; self-acceptance is much better. (自爱并不总是现实的；自我接纳要好得多。)”可知，后文提到了要自我接受，即建议接受自己本来的样子，做自己。故B选项“做你自己。”符合语境，故选B。 话题4 诗歌 Passage 1 There are many poems about autumn and, to be honest, a lot of them sound the same. 1 But William Butler Yeats’s poetry makes a difference: his poem about swans, one of the greatest poems that this great Irish poet ever wrote, brings new life to the autumn poems. He does this with clear imagery (意象). 2 Swans had been there throughout the time that Yeats had spent at Coole Park, the home of his supporter Lady Gregory. Yeats’s point about the swans is that they, unlike a man, never grow old. Whenever he sees the swans, no matter how old he is, he tries and fails to count them. Before he has done the counting, they rise up from the still lake, “And scatter wheeling in great broken rings. Upon their clamorous wings.” It’s a great and clear image. 3 4 But we guess that he does not have their great passion and energy. His heart, perhaps, has grown cold, unlike the pairs of lover swans who swim together on the water surface or climb the air when they take off and fly. Another important feature of the poem is that Yeats knows the swans are mysterious and beautiful. They are mysterious because they are not humans. Their life is different from ours. Their reality is not our reality. 5 A．Yeats does not really talk about how different he is from the swans. B．Yeats is considered to be the greatest poet of all time. C．The main image of the poem is the view of the swans in the title — The Wild Swans at Coole. D．You can almost hear Yeats’s exclaiming (感叹) as he sees the swans' sudden movements. E．Swans have been a common topic for brilliant poets. F．Read a lot of them for a while and you will soon be bored! G．But the poet, inspired by what he sees, is moved to think about them and life in a new way. 【答案】1．F 2．C 3．D 4．A 5．G 【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了叶芝关于天鹅的诗区别于其他秋日诗歌，通过清晰意象描绘天鹅，引发诗人对生命等的思考，还提及诗中天鹅的神秘。 1．上文“There are many poems about autumn and, to be honest, a lot of them sound the same. (有很多关于秋天的诗，说实话，很多都听起来很相似。)”说明秋天的诗歌同质化严重。 空处和前文为因果顺接关系，需进一步阐述同质化带来的结果，并和下文“But William Butler Yeats's poetry makes a difference: his poem about swans, one of the greatest poems that this great Irish poet ever wrote, brings new life to the autumn poems.( 但威廉·巴特勒·叶芝的诗歌却独树一帜：他关于天鹅的诗作是这位伟大的爱尔兰诗人所创作的最伟大的诗篇之一，为秋日诗歌注入了新的生命力。)”形成转折关系，引出本文的主题。 F项“读上一段时间，你很快就会感到厌倦！” 符合语境，该项中的“a lot of them”指代上文中的“many poems”，直接承接 “诗歌相似” 的特点，点明读者的感受，逻辑连贯。故选F。 2．上文“He does this with clear imagery (意象). (他通过清晰的意象来做到这一点)” 说明叶芝诗歌运用意象的特点。 空处和前文为举例解释关系，需具体说明诗中的核心意象。 C项“这首诗的主要意象是标题中的天鹅 ——《库尔的野天鹅》。” 符合语境，紧扣“意象”话题，引出诗中具体的天鹅意象，“the view of the swans in the title—The Wild Swans at Coole”与后文“Swans had been there throughout the time that Yeats had spent at Coole Park”形成呼应。故选C。 3．上文“Whenever he sees the swans, no matter how old he is, he tries and fails to count them. Before he has done the counting, they rise up from the still lake, “And scatter wheeling in great broken rings. Upon their clamorous wings.” It’s a great and clear image. (无论何时，只要他看到那些天鹅，无论自己年岁几何，他都会试着去数一数，却总是数不清楚。还没等他数完，天鹅们便从平静的湖面腾空而起，“它们成群结队、盘旋纷飞，形成巨大而不规则的圆环，振翅之声喧嚣不已。”这是一幅极为生动且清晰的画面。)”描述了天鹅从静止的湖面飞起的景象。空处和前文为画面延伸关系，需强化读者对意象的感官体验。D项“你几乎能听到叶芝看到天鹅突然举动时的感叹声。”符合语境，通过“听觉”联想补充视觉画面，让读者更身临其境，符合“清晰意象”的描述。故选D。 4．下文“But we guess that he does not have their great passion and energy. (但我们猜想他没有它们那样伟大的激情和能量。)”中的but表转折，暗示前文应提及叶芝与天鹅的某种关联或对比。 空处和后文为转折关系，需先铺垫叶芝与天鹅的相似或未直接对比的内容。 A项“叶芝并未真正谈论他与天鹅的不同。”符合语境，下文转折后说叶芝没有天鹅的热情和活力，所以这里先说叶芝没有谈及自己和天鹅的不同。故选A。 5．上文“They are mysterious because they are not humans. Their life is different from ours. Their reality is not our reality. (它们神秘，因为它们不是人类。它们的生活与我们不同，它们的现实不是我们的现实。)”强调天鹅的神秘性与人类的差异。 空处和前文为因果或总结关系，需说明诗人对这种差异的回应。空处和前文为因果或总结关系，需说明诗人对这种差异的回应。 G项“但诗人受到所见之物的启发，开始以新的方式思考它们和生命。”符合语境，承接“天鹅的神秘性”，指出诗人因此获得灵感，从新角度思考生命，总结段落核心——天鹅的神秘性激发诗歌的深度。故选G。 Passage 2 World Poetry Day is on 21st March, and reciting poems is a fantastic way to make the most of it. You could perform for your family at home. 6 Or you could even ask your teacher if you could recite a poem to your class.

He says it’s of great benefit to recite poetry in many aspects. 7 “I was very keen on reciting poems as a child,” he says. “Performing them was like theatre. It brought them alive for me.” 8 Once you have picked a poem, McGough says that you don’t need to learn it by heart in order to recite it. “I always read from a book when I perform poetry.” Before performing your recital, spend plenty of time practising the poem and getting to know the words’ rhythms. “Try not to stop at the end of every line, especially if the sentences run on each other.” says McGough“ 9 With a lot of poetry, you’ re discovering the words as you’ve set off with words.” Many people might be concerned about feeling anxious. 10 Those who perform poetry well have learned to embrace(欣然接受) them. “I still get nervous when I go on stage,” says McGough. “But the more you perform, the easier it gets.” A．Reading is usually done alone. B．You could read a poem to your friends. C．Don’t worry about forgetting the words. D．It gives you confidence and helps with your reading. E．You are part of a group discussing what you’re reading. F．Get the sense of the poem as a whole, not just the words.

You could perform for your family at home.(世界诗歌日是在3月21日，朗诵诗歌是充分利用这一节日的绝佳方式。你可以在家为家人表演。)”提出我们可以在世界诗歌日这一天在家为家人表演；而下一句“Or you could even ask your teacher if you could recite a poem to your class. (或者你甚至可以问问老师，能否在班上背诵一首诗。)”说甚至可以问老师能否在班上背诵一首诗，因此，这里需要一个在家庭和班级之间的场景。选项B“You could read a poem to your friends.(你可以给朋友们朗读一首诗。)”符合语境，能够承接上文，又与下文形成递进关系。故选B。 7．空前“Roger McGough is a poet and author whose new picture book Money-Go-Round came out last month. He says it’s of great benefit to recite poetry in many aspects.(Roger McGough是一位诗人兼作家，他的新图画书《金钱循环》上个月出版了。他说，在许多方面，朗诵诗歌大有裨益。)”指出Roger McGough认为背诵诗歌在很多方面有很大益处。选项D“It gives you confidence and helps with your reading.(它能给你信心，还能帮助你阅读。)”承接上文内容，是对背诵诗歌益处的具体阐述。故选D。 8．根据下文“Once you have picked a poem, McGough says that you don’t need to learn it by heart in order to recite it. “I always read from a book when I perform poetry.”(McGough说，一旦你选好了一首诗，你不需要背诵它也能朗诵。“我表演诗歌的时候总是看着书朗读。”)”可知，下文提到一旦选好诗，不需要背诵就能朗诵，而且 Roger McGough 自己表演诗歌时也总是看着书朗读。选项C“Don’t worry about forgetting the words.(不要担心忘记单词)”能够统领这一段内容，与后文意思相符。故选C。 9．根据上文“Before performing your recital, spend plenty of time practising the poem and getting to know the words’ rhythms. “Try not to stop at the end of every line, especially if the sentences run on each other.” says McGough(在进行朗诵表演之前，花大量时间练习这首诗，熟悉单词的韵律。“尽量不要在每行的结尾都停顿，尤其是当句子相互连贯的时候。”McGough说。)”可知，上文提到要练习诗歌，了解单词的韵律，不要在每行结尾都停顿，要把句子连起来。选项F“Get the sense of the poem as a whole, not just the words.(要把握诗歌的整体感觉，而不仅仅是单词。)”是对前文的总结和升华，强调从整体上理解诗歌，符合语境。故选F。 10．空前“Many people might be concerned about feeling anxious.(很多人可能会担心感到焦虑。)”说很多人可能会担心焦虑；而空后“Those who perform poetry well have learned to embrace(欣然接受) them.(那些诗歌朗诵得好的人已经学会了欣然接受它们。)”说表演好诗歌的人学会了欣然接受它们。选项G“The key to dealing with nerves is to realize everyone has them.(应对紧张情绪的关键是要意识到每个人都会有这种情绪。)”能够衔接上下文，解释了如何应对焦虑情绪。故选G。 Passage 3 How to Appreciate Poems Poems are unique and exceptional literary works that carry the core of the poet’s thoughts, emotions and creativity. Appreciating poems can be a rewarding and enriching experience, allowing us to explore different worlds and perspectives. 11 Here are some steps to help you better appreciate poems. Understand the background. It is essential to learn about the poets’ life and their personal experiences. 12 For example, many of Wilfred Owen’s poems are about the war, deeply influenced by his experiences. Thus, understanding that would enrich our appreciation of his work. Explore the imagery. Poets may use descriptive language related to the five senses: sight, sound, smell, taste and touch. A poem about a beautiful garden might use words to describe the colors of the flowers (sight), the buzzing of the bees (sound) and the sweet fragrance in the air (smell). 13 14 They can be about love, loss, nature, identity and many other universal concepts. Different readers may have different comprehension, and that’s part of the beauty of poetry. Discussing the poem with others can also bring out new perspectives and insights.   Connect with your emotions. Whether it makes you feel upset, sorrowful, angry or inspired, your emotional response is an important part of the appreciation process. 15 It can also make you see the world in a new way. Don’t be afraid to let the poem affect you and to explore why it makes you feel the way you do. A．Interpret the themes. B．Engage in discussion. C．Your emotional response is unique. D．But it can be tough without right approaches. E．Thus, the vivid picture can be kept in readers’ mind. F．A powerful poem can touch something deep within you. G．Besides, a poem written during a specific time may carry different themes. 【答案】11．D 12．G 13．E 14．A 15．F 【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了欣赏诗歌的步骤，包括了解背景、探索意象、解读主题和与情感相连。 11．上文“Appreciating poems can be a rewarding and enriching experience, allowing us to explore different worlds and perspectives.(欣赏诗歌可以是一种有益且丰富的体验，让我们能够探索不同的世界和观点)”说明欣赏诗歌有好处。空处和前文为转折关系，引出下文介绍欣赏诗歌的方法，说明没有正确的方法可能会很难。所以D项“但如果没有正确的方法，这可能会很困难。”符合语境。故选D。 12．上文“It is essential to learn about the poets’ life and their personal experiences.(了解诗人的生活和他们的个人经历是很重要的)”说明了解诗人生活和经历的重要性。空处进一步说明与诗歌创作时间相关的内容，G项“此外，在特定时期创作的诗歌可能会承载不同的主题。”符合语境，选项中“a poem written during a specific time”与前文“Understand the background.”相呼应，且Besides起到了补充说明的作用。故选G。 13．上文“A poem about a beautiful garden might use words to describe the colors of the flowers (sight), the buzzing of the bees (sound) and the sweet fragrance in the air (smell).(一首关于美丽花园的诗可能会用词语来描述花朵的颜色（视觉）、蜜蜂的嗡嗡声（听觉）和空气中的甜蜜香气（嗅觉）)”说明诗人运用与感官相关的描述性语言。空处总结这种描述的效果，E项“因此，生动的画面可以留在读者的脑海中。”符合语境，选项中“the vivid picture”对应上文对花园的各种感官描述所形成的画面。故选E。 14．下文“They can be about love, loss, nature, identity and many other universal concepts. Different readers may have different comprehension, and that’s part of the beauty of poetry.(它们可以是关于爱情、失去、自然、身份和许多其他普遍概念的。不同的读者可能有不同的理解，而这正是诗歌之美的一部分)”可知，该段主要讲的是对诗歌主题的解读，A项“解读主题。”符合语境。故选A。 15．上文“Whether it makes you feel upset, sorrowful, angry or inspired, your emotional response is an important part of the appreciation process.(无论它让你感到沮丧、悲伤、愤怒还是受到鼓舞，你的情感反应都是欣赏过程中的一个重要部分)”说明情感反应在欣赏诗歌过程中的重要性。空处和前文为顺接关系，进一步说明一首有感染力的诗歌对你内心的触动，F项“一首有力量的诗能触动你内心深处的某些东西。”符合语境，选项中“touch something deep within you”与前文的“emotional response”相呼应，且与下文 “It can also make you see the world in a new way.(它也能让你以一种新的方式看待世界)”在逻辑上连贯，都是在描述诗歌对人的影响。故选F。 Passage 4 Writing a poem is about observing the world within or around you. A poem can be about anything, from love to loss to the rusty gate at the old farm. With the right approach, you can write a poem that you can be proud to share with others in the class or with your friends. Use concrete imagery. 16 you could always try to describe something using the five senses: smell, taste, touch, sight, and sound. Using concrete imagery will immerse your reader in the world of your poem and make images come alive for them. Include literary devices. Literary devices like metaphor and simile add variety and depth to your poetry. Using these devices can make your poem stand out to your reader. 17 Try to use literary devices throughout your poem, varying them so you do not use only metaphors or only similes in your writing. Take alliteration(头韵)as an example. It occurs when you use words in quick sequence that begin with the same letter, such as “Lucy let her luck linger.” 18 Avoid cliches(陈词滥调). Your poetry will be much stronger if you avoid cliches, which are phrases that have become so familiar they have lost their meaning. 19 . If you feel a certain phrase or image will be too familiar to your reader, replace it with a more unique phrase. 20 Poetry is made to be read out loud and you should write your poem with a focus on how it sounds on the page. It will allow you to play with the structure of your poem and your word choice. Notice how each line of your poem flows into one another and how placing one word next to another creates a certain sound. A．Write for the ear. B．Read out your poem. C．This helps you play with the way your poem sounds. D．It also allows you to paint a detailed picture for your reader. E．Meanwhile, use some imaginative descriptions in your poem. F．Instead, turn to creative descriptions and images in your poem. G．Avoid something abstract and go for specific descriptions in your poem. 【答案】16．G 17．D 18．C 19．F 20．A 【语篇导读】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了写诗歌的几种方法和技巧。 16．根据上文“Use concrete imagery.(使用具体的意象)”以及下文“you could always try to describe something using the five senses: smell, taste, touch, sight, and sound. Using concrete imagery will immerse your reader in the world of your poem and make images come alive for them.(你总是可以用五种感官来描述某件事：嗅觉、味觉、触觉、视觉和听觉。使用具体的意象会让你的读者沉浸在你的诗歌世界里，让图像在他们眼前鲜活起来。)”可知，本段主要说明的是诗歌创作要使用具体的意象，避免抽象的内容，G选项中“specific descriptions”对应上文中“concrete imagery”。故G选项“避免抽象的东西，在诗中使用具体的描述”符合语境，故选G。 17．根据上文“Include literary devices. Literary devices like metaphor and simile add variety and depth to your poetry. Using these devices can make your poem stand out to your reader.(包括文学手法。像隐喻和明喻这样的文学手法为你的诗歌增添了多样性和深度。使用这些技巧可以让你的诗在读者中脱颖而出)”以及下文“Try to use literary devices throughout your poem, varying them so you do not use only metaphors or only similes in your writing.(试着在你的整首诗中使用文学手法，改变它们，这样你就不会在你的写作中只使用隐喻或明喻)”可知，上文提到了使用文学手法的好处，下文则鼓励在诗中使用文学手法，由此可知，空处是也在说明使用文学手法的好处，D选项中“It”指代上文“Using these devices”。故D选项“它还可以让你为读者描绘一幅详细的画面”符合语境，故选D。 18．根据上文“Take alliteration (头韵) as an example. It occurs when you use words in quick sequence that begin with the same letter, such as Lucy let her luck linger.(以头韵为例。当你连续使用以相同字母开头的单词时，就会出现这种情况，比如“Lucy let her luck linger.”)”可知，上文举了头韵的例子，空处为本段最后一句，应承接上文说明头韵的作用，C选项中“your poem sounds”对应上文“with the same letter”。故C选项“这有助于你巧妙处理你诗歌的音韵效果”符合语境，故选C。 19．根据上文“Avoid cliches (陈词滥调). Your poetry will be much stronger if you avoid cliches, which are phrases that have become so familiar they have lost their meaning.(避免陈词滥调。如果你避免使用陈词滥调，你的诗就会更有力量，因为陈词滥调是一些你已经很熟悉的短语，它们已经失去了意义)”以及下文“I you feel a certain phrase or image will be too familiar to your reader, replace it with a more unique phrase.(如果你觉得某个短语或形象对你的读者来说太熟悉了，就用一个更独特的短语来代替它)”可知，上文提到要避免使用陈词滥调，下文则说用独特的短语代替，由此可知，空处是在说明在诗中使用有创造性的描述和意象来代替陈词滥调。故F选项“相反，在你的诗中使用富有想象力的描述和意象”符合语境，故选F。 20．根据下文“Poetry is made to be read out loud and you should write your poem with a focus on how it sounds on the page. It will allow you to play with the structure of your poem and your word choice. Notice how each line of your poem flows into one another and how placing one word next to another creates a certain sound.(诗歌是用来大声朗读的，你在写诗的时候应该关注它在纸上的发音。这将允许你灵活运用你诗歌的结构和词汇选择。注意你的诗的每一行是如何相互衔接的，把一个词放在另一个词旁边是如何产生某种声音的)”可知，下文提到诗歌是用来大声朗读的，写诗的时候应该关注它在纸上的发音，即诗歌要为耳朵而写，故A选项“为耳朵而写”符合语境，故选A。 Passage 5 Poetry, with its rhythmic language and layered meanings, invites readers to explore emotions, ideas, and beauty beyond the literal. To fully engage with a poem, consider these methods to deepen your appreciation and understanding. Read aloud for rhythm and sound 21 Read the poem aloud slowly. Notice the rhythm, rhymes, or repeating sounds. For example, Edgar Allan Poe’s The Raven uses a tense beat, while Langston Hughes’ Dreams has a gentle flow. Do they sound cheerful, sad, or urgent? The “music” of a poem often mirrors its mood. 22 Understanding a poem’s historical, cultural, or biographical context enriches interpretation. It will help you a lot to find out when the poem was written or what the poet’s life was like. But don’t stress — even a quick Google search can add meaning. Accept confusion Poems don’t always have one right explanation. 23 Maybe Shakespeare’s Sonnet 18 is both a love poem and a joke about clichés (陈词滥调). Discuss with classmates — different views make poems more interesting! Let uncertainty spark curiosity. Connect the poem to your life Let your emotions guide your understanding. If a line reminds you of a personal experience, write down your thoughts or share them with a friend. 24 Poetry isn’t just about analysis — it’s about feeling and imagination. Appreciating poetry is both an art and a practice — requiring attention to form, context, and personal reflection. As Eliot wrote, poetry “communicates before it is understood”, inviting us to return, rethink, and rediscover its magic endlessly. 25 A．Poems are meant to be heard. B．Learn the background of the poem. C．Compare poems by different authors. D．Poetry is alive when it speaks to you. E．Practice memorizing your favorite lines. F．If a line feels puzzling, write down your guesses. G．Grab a poem, read it aloud, and let yourself enjoy the magic of it. 【答案】21．A 22．B 23．F 24．D 25．G 【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了如何深入欣赏和理解诗歌的方法，包括大声朗读感受节奏和声音、了解诗歌的背景、接受诗歌的模糊性、将诗歌与个人生活联系起来等。 21．根据下文“Read the poem aloud slowly. Notice the rhythm, rhymes, or repeating sounds. For example, Edgar Allan Poe’s The Raven uses a tense beat, while Langston Hughes’ Dreams has a gentle flow. Do they sound cheerful, sad, or urgent? The “music” of a poem often mirrors its mood.(慢慢地大声朗读这首诗。留意它的韵律、韵脚或重复的声音。例如，埃德加・爱伦・坡的《乌鸦》采用了紧张的节拍，而兰斯顿・休斯的《梦想》则有着柔和的节奏。它们听起来是欢快的、悲伤的，还是急切的呢？一首诗的“音乐性”往往反映了它的情感基调。)”可知，下文内容围绕大声朗读诗歌展开。选项A“Poems are meant to be heard.(诗歌就是用来被聆听的。)”强调了诗歌需要被听到，与大声朗读相呼应，符合该段语境。故选A。 22．空处为小标题。为本段主要内容。根据下文“Understanding a poem’s historical, cultural, or biographical context enriches interpretation. It will help you a lot to find out when the poem was written or what the poet’s life was like. But don’t stress — even a quick Google search can add meaning.(理解一首诗的历史、文化或作者生平背景可以丰富对它的解读。弄清楚这首诗创作于何时，或者诗人的生活是怎样的，这会对你有很大帮助。但也不必过于紧张——即使只是快速地在谷歌上搜索一下也能增添对诗歌的理解。)”可知，本段主要讲的是了解诗歌的背景知识。选项B“Learn the background of the poem.(了解诗歌的背景)”符合该段主旨，与本段内容相符。故选B。 23．根据上文“Poems don’t always have one right explanation.(诗歌并不总是只有一个正确的解释。)”以及下文“Maybe Shakespeare’s Sonnet 18 is both a love poem and a joke about clichés (陈词滥调).(也许莎士比亚的《十四行诗第18首》既是一首爱情诗，也是对陈词滥调的一种调侃。)”可知，上下文都在说诗歌理解的不确定性。选项F“If a line feels puzzling, write down your guesses.(如果一行诗让你感到困惑，写下你的猜测。)”与接受困惑以及诗歌解释的不确定性相契合，符合上下文语境。故选F。 24．根据上文“Let your emotions guide your understanding. If a line reminds you of a personal experience, write down your thoughts or share them with a friend.(让你的情感引导你的理解。如果一行诗让你想起一段个人经历，写下你的想法，或者和朋友分享一下。)”可知，上文强调了诗歌与个人的联系。选项D“Poetry is alive when it speaks to you.(当诗歌与你产生共鸣时，它就是有生命力的。)”进一步说明了诗歌与个人的关联，符合该段语境。故选D。 25．根据上文“Appreciating poetry is both an art and a practice — requiring attention to form, context, and personal reflection. As Eliot wrote, poetry “communicates before it is understood”, inviting us to return, rethink, and rediscover its magic endlessly.(欣赏诗歌既是一门艺术，也是一种实践——需要关注诗歌的形式、创作背景以及个人的思考感悟。正如艾略特所写的那样，诗歌“在被理解之前就已经传达了信息”，它邀请我们不断回味、重新思考，并不断重新发现它的魅力。)”可知，上文总结了欣赏诗歌的要点以及诗歌的魅力。选项G“Grab a poem, read it aloud, and let yourself enjoy the magic of it.(拿起一首诗，大声朗读，让自己享受它的魔力。)”呼应了前文提到的欣赏诗歌的方式，同时鼓励读者去体验诗歌的魅力，符合文章结尾的语境。故选G。 $
