2026届高三英语各地模考或重点中学(联考)阅读专项训练二十四(七选五)及答案详解
学校:___________姓名:___________班级:___________考号:___________
一.(2026·吉林长春·二模)What exactly is a chore? The word alone brings to mind boring, repetitive tasks — cleaning, doing laundry, or paying bills. 1 But why are these everyday tasks so important? The answer might surprise you: they are the foundation of a well-run life.
2 Chores feel tiring for several psychological reasons. They rarely offer instant rewards, making them feel like a waste of time. Since they need to be done repeatedly, they can seem endless. Our brains are also wired to avoid unpleasant tasks, causing procrastination (拖延). It’s also easy to underestimate how important chores really are. We only notice their value when they’re left undone — when dishes pile up or bills are overdue.
So what makes chores so essential? For starters, they create stability. Life runs on routines, and chores maintain order. A tidy space helps us think clearly. 3 Paying bills on time avoids late fees; regular car maintenance prevents costly repairs. Perhaps most importantly, they support health and personal growth. Cooking healthy meals and keeping a clean home reduce health risks. 4 By staying organized, we create room for hobbies, family, and creative projects.
Fortunately, there are simple ways to make chores easier. View them as necessary “life maintenance”. Build simple routines and handle small tasks right away. Break large tasks down into smaller, manageable steps. 5 Remember: chores aren’t obstacles; they’re the quiet heroes that keep life running smoothly.
A.Beyond that, they act as preventive medicine.
B.Even five minutes of effort can make a difference.
C.These are tasks we must do, not choose to do for fun.
D.Moreover, they build the kind of order that fuels creativity.
E.They also free up time for the people and activities we love.
F.This sense of control, in turn, reduces anxiety about the future.
G.Yet despite their importance, most of us find them unpleasant.

Walking in Nature Boosts Your Mental Health
In our fast-paced digital world, most people struggle with stress and feelings of being overwhelmed. More and more people are looking for effective ways to relax and improve their mental health. 6 Among them, walking outdoors in nature has been proven to bring amazing and lasting benefits to our mind.
Studies show that walking in green spaces lowers levels of cortisol, the body’s main stress hormone. 7 Research from Stanford University found that a 90-minute walk in a natural setting significantly decreases activity in the part of the brain linked to rumination — repetitive negative thinking that fuels stress and depression.
Another key benefit is increased creativity. When you walk in nature, your brain enters a state of “soft fascination”. 8 Unlike urban environments that demand constant, directed attention, nature provides gentle, low-effort stimuli that let your brain rest and recharge.
Try to walk without your phone. Disconnecting from screens lets you fully engage with your surroundings — listening to birdsong, feeling the breeze, or watching sunlight filter through leaves. 9 It also helps you disconnect from work or digital stress.
10 Research suggests that spending a total of 120 minutes in nature each week is linked to long-term improvements in mental well-being. Whether it’s a lunchtime stroll, a weekend hike, or simply sitting under a tree, nature is free, accessible medicine for your mind.
A.Even small daily doses add up.
B.The mindful presence enables you to calm down.
C.However, simple and natural methods are often ignored.
D.It allows your mind to wander and make new connections.
E.Being free from digital devices affects work efficiency greatly.
F.The longer you stay in nature, the better mental health you will gain.
G.This reduction in stress leads to improved mood and reduced anxiety.
三. (25-26高三下·安徽·月考)In a Berlin studio, 48-year-old Ismet Himmet guides students through tai chi’s flowing movements. Fluent in Mandarin, he has immersed himself in Chinese martial arts for over three decades. 11 First encountering kung fu in 1991, he travelled to China in 2000 to learn from masters. In 2006, he founded Berlin’s Xuan-Gong Fu Academy, dedicated to internal martial arts, now offering tai chi, baguazhang, xingyiquan and more to students of all ages.
12 They represent a lifestyle and a way of thinking. In time, he believes, practice allows students not only to refine skills, but to understand the culture from which each tradition grew.
Thousands of kilometres away in Shanghai, She Yuran is on a similar journey, only in reverse (相反). He was born in Sichuan province and now living in Shanghai. 13 Beginning with German classical fencing, he devoted himself wholeheartedly to studying historical weapons and martial skills.
In 2015, She co-founded the Shanghai Historical Martial Arts Club, which integrates historical European martial arts, Chinese martial arts, and other disciplines into a structured curriculum. 14 “We’re not just teaching how to wield (挥舞) a sword; we’re reviving a lost physical culture and connecting it with contemporary life,” She says.
While Himmet helps Germans understand the philosophy and practice of Chinese martial arts, She brings European sword traditions to Chinese practitioners. Though separated by vast distances, the two men share a common purpose: using martial arts as a vehicle for cross-cultural dialogue. Their work illustrates the potential of ancient Eastern and Western traditions. 15
A.For him, martial arts are not merely a set of techniques.
B.He was introduced to historical European martial arts at university.
C.He has won numerous awards in international martial arts competitions.
D.They can cross borders, promote respect and live on through new generations.
E.The club regularly invites famous Chinese martial arts masters to give lectures.
F.The club now has more than 200 members, with over half studying German fencing.
G.What began as a personal passion has since evolved into his lifelong mission of cultural exchange.
四. (2026·江苏南京·一模)One early morning, as I walked around the block, a friend’s “hi” from my phone nearly stopped me in my tracks. 16 She talked me through a life update from the opposite side of the country. It felt like the surprise of an unexpected letter because we normally didn’t communicate that way.
At the time, I only sent voice messages occasionally. Stage fright would kick in. I worried that I’d say the wrong thing, or that others would experience the same cringe (局促不安) upon hearing my voice that I do. 17
But recently, I’ve found myself recalling how my friend’s voice broke through loneliness.Particularly during a season that’s supposed to be all about love, I think about all the ways that can look-specifically, how we reach out and connect. As I’ve sent more random voice messages to loved ones, it’s become obvious how much I was longing for this point of connection with them. 18 There’s a level of closeness that comes with this kind of listening.
19 It allows you to take your time and speak without the pressure of an immediate response. You can fill it with laughter, pauses, and tone that a text message can’t convey. It’s a small act of presence, a way to say, “I’m thinking of you, and I want to connect in a way that feels human.”
In a world where so much of our communication is quick, instrumental, and screen-based, voice messages are a rebellion (反抗). They’re a choice to be unpolished, to be real, and to invest time in someone else. 20 It’s just a friend’s “hi” in your pocket, waiting for you to hit play.
A.In fact, I’m a late adopter of voice messaging.
B.I find comfort in their voices even if I can’t see their faces.
C.It was the first voice message I remember clicking play on.
D.When we reach out, we can better understand others’ difficulties.
E.Sometimes, connection doesn’t have to be grand to be meaningful.
F.I think better in writing, I’d tell myself, holding on to my text messages
G.A voice message is a conscious choice for thoughtful, heartfelt connection.
五. (2026·河北邯郸·二模)Eggs are easy and foolproof to cook — think boiled eggs, scrambled eggs, or simple omelets. But there’s another ingredient that’s almost impossible to overcook and comes in over 10 varieties. With a “meaty” taste and texture, it’s often used in vegetarian dishes (素菜). 21
One fascinating thing about cooking mushrooms is how well they stand up to heat, maintaining their structure even after long cooking times. This remarkable heat resistance comes from the mushroom’s cellular make-up containing chitin (几丁质), which allows the mushrooms to stand up to temperatures up to about 380 degrees Celsius. 22
This is not the same as what happens to meat or plants. Raw meat protein is soft. 23 This creates empty spaces, causing the protein to tighten and become hard and chewy. As for vegetables, the parts that hold their cell walls together, like hemicellulose and pectin, break down when they are heated.
Besides that unique structure, another reason why mushrooms can withstand heat for so long is their high water content. Tomatoes are among the vegetables with high water content too, which is why they shrivel up (皱缩) when roasted. 24 In fact they are 80-90% water. This feature helps mushrooms cook for a long time without falling apart. As mushrooms are exposed to heat, the water within them begins to steam and leave, preventing the mushrooms from drying out too quickly.
Unless you are cooking under extreme circumstances or intentionally mishandling them, it’s nearly impossible to overcook mushrooms. 25 Kids, home cooks, and chefs alike can experiment with various cooking techniques without the fear of ruining the dish.
A.Mushrooms are no different.
B.But long heat removes its water.
C.That ingredient is the mushroom.
D.Even beginners can cook them successfully.
E.It also maintains their shape under high heat.
F.This quality makes them perfect for roasting.
G.This makes them a forgiving ingredient in the kitchen.
六. (2026·陕西西安·二模)Voice notes are a highly divisive medium of communication. There are those, like me, who enjoy both leaving and listening to them; and then there are those who dislike them and feel very strongly about that. 26 . A poll found that 62% of Americans have sent voice notes, and about 30% communicate this way on a regular basis. But even the voice note lovers among us have our limits. All of us know a voice note bore. 27
The first rule: only ever leave voice notes for someone that you are confident likes you. 28 It is also somewhat self-indulgent (放纵自己的). While a spot of self-indulgence can be healthy, it is unreasonable to expect someone who dislikes you to indulge you.
Never give complicated instructions in a voice note. 29 If you end up leaving a long voice note that contains a mixture of key information and other bits, follow it up with a text that gives the other person the important stuff, so they’re not forced to listen straight away.
You need not keep your messages too short. Leaving a voice note that is under10 seconds long—— unless you are funny or the other person likes you—— is annoying. Type it out instead.
Follow the other person’s cues. If they are responding to your eight-minute specials with one-minute voice messages, take the hint. Also, if your message is longer than about four minutes, you should be open to the possibility that the other person is going to take a long time to listen and respond. If your message is upwards of 10 minutes, they might never listen to it. 30
All you need do, really, is remember to use a bit of common sense. Modern innovations need not negate good old-fashioned manners.
A.Be at peace with that.
B.Be responsive and informative.
C.And it is time to establish some ground rules.
D.It seems the haters are losing the battle, though.
E.A voice note is a demand on someone else’s time.
F.It suggests limiting voice notes as much as you can.
G.These should be typed out so the other person can refer back.
