In their view, money is the answer to all of lifeˈs problems and will bring them happiness. In my opinion, people canˈt do many things without money, but money is not everything. There are many things in the world which money cannot buy, such as friendship, love, health and knowledge. What money will bring you depends on your personal beliefs and goals. The pursuit of money itself is not wrong, but the appropriate pursuit can make our life full of motivation and achieve a higher goal.

(最吸引人的是它的精确计时，每天可以精确到4秒，比一块售价超过6000美元的27颗宝石自动手表还要精确。)”可知，Stauer Urban Blue最好的地方是计时准确。故选B。 22. 根据第三段“At Stauer, we go directly to the source (cutting out the middleman),and engineer our own watch designs. This means we can offer a top quality timepiece that happens to only cost the same as two well-made cocktails at your favorite bar. (在Stauer，我们直接找到源头（省去了中间商），设计出我们自己的手表。这意味着我们可以提供一款高品质的手表，而价格恰好只相当于你最喜欢的酒吧里两杯精心调制的鸡尾酒的价格。)”可知，Stauer Urban Blue的定价低是一位它是由自己的工厂自行设计的。故选D。 23. 根据文中“Limited to the first 1900 responders to this ad only. (仅限于此广告的前1900顾客)”；“Stauer Urban Blue Watch $199 (Stauer Urban Blue Watch售价199美元)”以及“Offer Code Price $29+S&P Save $170 (报价代码价格$29+标准普尔节省$170)”可知，如果您是第2000位客户，您应该支付199美元购买。故选D。 语篇B：爱的价值 24~27. 【文章大意】本文是一篇记叙文。作者通过整理账单回忆起童年祖母给的硬币，领悟到真正珍贵的不是金钱，而是永恒不变的爱。 24. 【文章大意】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章主要讲述了作者在做预算的时候想起了自己的奶奶，回忆了和奶奶相处的时光以及奶奶对自己深深的爱。由此作者感悟到，爱是人生永恒的财富，呼吁读者要珍惜爱。 【解析】推理判断题。根据第一段中的“I was doing my monthly budget. There were bills ... always seemed to show up.”可推断，作者在做各项开支的预算，平衡可用资金。故选D。 25. 词义猜测题。根据第二段中的“It held week-long camps all ... worked in her big kitchen.”以及画线词前的hot可推断，roll是一种食物，四个选项中只有A选项是食物。故选A。 26. 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“I remember slipping there getting a smile, a hug ... a shiny quarter.”以及第三段中的“Looking back now I can see that the real treasure was ... which Nanny gave it to me.”可知，奶奶给予了作者很多的爱和关怀。由此可推知，她是一个充满爱的人。故选C。 27. 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“You can always welcome love ... one treasure that lasts forever.”可知，作者呼吁我们去拥抱爱、去分享爱，爱是永恒的财富。由此可推断，作者是为了说明在生活中我们要珍惜爱。故选B。 语篇C：忠于自我 28~31. 【语篇解读】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讲述了人们常通过他人认可来获取自我价值，但这种方式是徒劳的，作者强调人们要学会自我认可、做真实的自己，这样才会更强大、自信和快乐。 28. 【解析】推理判断题。根据第一段“Laozi once said, ‘Care about what other people think and you will always be their prisoner.’”以及后文围绕人们过度在意他人认可展开论述可知，引用老子的话是为了引出文章的话题。故选A。 29. 细节理解题。根据第四段“ We need to understand that when we anxiously want someone to approve of us, it’s being driven by that little kid part of us that is still terrified of abandonment.”可知，人们期望他人认可，是因为内心深处害怕被抛弃。故选B。 30. 词义猜测题。根据画线处句子“ Imagine how much time we lose each moment we restrain our real selves in an effort to be liked.”可知，为了被喜欢，我们“restrain”了真实的自我，这浪费了很多时间。“hide（隐藏）”最符合语境，即隐藏真实的自己。故选B。 31 标题归纳题。文章先以老子的话引出人们对他人认可的追求这一话题，接着分析了原因，最后呼吁人们要做真实的自己，不要为了获得他人的认可而压抑自己。所以 D项“Staying true to yourself（保持自我）”最适合做文章的标题。故选D。 语篇D：体验消费更快乐 32~35. 【解题导语】  本文是一篇说明文。研究发现，与购买物品相比，把钱花在生活体验上能让人更快乐。 32. 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“A new study ... offers an answer.”及对该研究结论的介绍可推知，作者之所以提出这两个问题是为了引出关于这项新研究的话题。 33. 推理判断题。根据第三段内容可推知，研究人员给参与者每天不定时发消息，以了解他们当时的情绪感受以及他们在过去的一个小时内是否有过购买行为。 34. 词义猜测题。根据第四段和第五段内容可知，两次研究的结论相同，即画线部分指的是“与购买物品相比，把钱花在生活体验上能让人更快乐”。 35. 细节理解题。根据最后一段内容可知，库马尔认为人们应把钱多花在生活体验上，而不是物品上，这样会更快乐。 第二节 七选五 (共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 36~40. 【文章大意】本文是一篇说明文，介绍美国青少年合法赚钱方式：看护孩子、遛狗、送报、线上任务、修剪草坪。 36.根据空前的“Parents with young children ... leave their children alone.”可知，有孩子的父母有时想出去吃饭或看电影，但他们不想让孩子单独在家。G项“所以，他们让一个十几岁的孩子待在家里，在他们外出时照顾他们的孩子”承接前文，符合语境。故选G。 37. 根据空后的“So some teenagers work as dog walkers.”可知，A项“狗需要大量的运动！”引起后文，符合语境。故选A。 38. 根据空前的“You usually ride a bike around a neighbourhood and leave a newspaper at each house.”可知，C项“通常你必须有一辆自行车”承接前文，符合语境。故选C。 39. 空处为本段的主旨句。根据空后的“Some companies pay teens to do ... for friends or adults.”可知，青少年可以通过电脑赚零用钱。E项“青少年可以在家里用电脑工作”符合本段主题。故选E。 40. 根据空后的“Then you have regular customers, because grass always grows!”可知，F项“认真做好你的工作，人们就会想让你再做一次”引出后文，符合语境。故选F。 第三部分：语言运用(共三节，满分45分) 第一节：完形填空(共15小题;每小题 1分，满分15分) 41~55. 主题：人与自我——做人与做事 本文是记叙文。Mateo从小看妈妈参与慈善事业，耳濡目染，上高中时也开始做慈善。他与朋友们一起创建了一个俱乐部，筹集资金帮助世界各地有需要的孩子。 41. 下文中的an organization helping people experiencing homelessness rebuild their lives(帮助无家可归的儿童重建生活的组织)是关键线索，说明Mateo的妈妈参加的是慈善工作。 42. 根据下文中的lay the groundwork for the club可知，Mateo创立的是一个俱乐部。 43. 下文中的Mateo and his friends hold a ChildFund fundraiser提示在创立俱乐部时，Mateo是和他的一些朋友一起准备的。 44. 结合worked with ChildFund staff和the training and materials they needed to lay the groundwork for the club可推断，此处指Mateo与朋友们跟儿童基金会的工作人员合作，接受培训、获得资源，做创立俱乐部的准备工作。 45. 根据空前的teacher以及常识可推断，Mateo作为学生，创立俱乐部时需要找一位老师提供指导与支持。 46. 选项：A借B节省C覆盖D筹集解析：筹集资金用raise money，故选D。 47. 由上文可知，该俱乐部目的是帮助孩子，结合空前的hold a ChildFund fundraiser、两空之间的several thousand dollars以及空后的children in greatest need around the world可推断，此处指Mateo团队通过筹款活动筹集了数千美元，帮助世界各地最有需要的儿童，raised与help符合语境。 48. 根据空后的a card-making activity for students可推断，此处指Mateo团队还组织了卡片制作并邮寄的活动，让同学们参加，organize符合语境。 49. 结合语境，学生制作卡片送给困境儿童，卡片承载的应是鼓励的话语，encouragement(鼓励)符合“用卡片传递温暖”的场景。 50. 根据下文中的Iˈve learned可知，此处Mateo表示他从创立俱乐部这件事情中学到了很多东西。 51. 下文中的You have to build up to it. You fix it, you add on to it, until you ... the ideal version of it表明我们必须一步步为一个好的想法做准备。因此可推断，此处Mateo学到的道理是：一个好的想法绝不是轻易就能形成的。build up to sth.为……做准备。 52. 上文中的You have to build up to it. You fix it, you add on to it这些动作的最终目的是形成这个想法的理想版本，故achieve符合语境。 53. 根据空前的In May, Mateo will graduate from high school以及空后的his role in the ChildFund Club to a younger student可推断，Mateo高中毕业后，将会把自己在俱乐部中的职责移交给比他小点的学生。passing意为“给，递，传递”，符合语境。 54. 根据空前的He hopes to study either architecture or engineering in college，but以及空后的Heˈll continue leading efforts to make the world a better place可推断，此处表示Mateo大学要学的专业还不确定，但他将继续努力做好事这件事是可以确定的。for sure(无疑，肯定)符合语境。on duty(值班)、in time(及时)、by chance(偶然)均无法体现“确定性”，从而和上文形成对比。 55. Mateo一直坚持投身公益，帮助需要资源的孩子，他的优秀品质之一是乐于奉献。由此可推断，他认为，为那些有需要的儿童提供帮助，所付出的努力都是值得的。 第二节 语篇语法填空(10个小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分) 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文，简要介绍美国作家马克·吐温的短篇小说《百万英镑钞票》的开篇情节：主人公亨利·亚当斯因意外漂流到英国，求助无门、流落街头，随后被两位富有的古怪兄弟召见，二人以此打赌，并交给亨利一封装有百万英镑的信，要求他两点才能打开。文章以一般过去时为主，脉络清晰，紧扣单元主题金钱的价值。 56.published 原文：The Million Pound Bank Note is a short story by the American author Mark Twain,(publish)in 1893. (《百万英镑钞票》是美国作家马克·吐温的短篇小说，出版于1893年。) 解析：story与publish是被动关系，表示“被出版”，用过去分词作后置定语，故填published。 57.Luckily 原文：(luck),he was spotted and saved by a ship the next morning. (幸运的是，第二天早上他被一艘船发现并救起。) 解析：修饰整个句子，必须用副词，置于句首首字母大写，故填Luckily。 58.to seek 原文：he went to the American consulate(seek)help (他前往美国领事馆寻求帮助。) 解析：此处表示目的“为了寻求帮助”，用不定式作目的状语，故填to seek。 59.was wandering 原文：He(wander)on the street when he heard somebody calling him. (他正在街上闲逛，这时听到有人叫他。) 解析：固定句型was/were doing…when…（正在做……这时……），主语为He，用过去进行时，故填was wandering。 60.wealthy 原文：two very(wealth)and odd brothers (两位非常富有且古怪的兄弟。) 解析：修饰名词brothers，用形容词，wealth（名词）→wealthy（形容词，富有的），故填wealthy。 61.a 原文：who made(a)bet (他们打了一个赌。) 解析：固定搭配make a bet（打赌），bet是可数名词单数，前面用不定冠词a。 62.argument 原文：To settle their(argue) (为了解决他们的争论。) 解析：形容词性物主代词their后接名词，argue（动词）→argument（名词，争论），故填argument。 63.of 原文：a large sum(of)money (一大笔钱。) 解析：固定搭配a large sum of…（一大笔……），后接不可数名词money，故填of。 64.opening 原文：he had to postpone(open)it (他必须推迟打开它。) 解析：固定用法postpone doing sth.（推迟做某事），postpone后接动名词，故填opening。 65.and 原文：Henry leaving their house(and)promising that… (亨利离开了他们的房子，并承诺……) 解析：leaving与promising是并列关系，用连词and连接。汉译英（解析略，已给标准答案） 第四部分写作（共一节，满分25分） 第一节应用文写作（满分25分） 详细解题步奏： 1.开头问候（格式必备） Hello,everyone! 作用：演讲稿标准开头，礼貌、正式、符合场景。 评分点：格式完整，不丢格式分。 2.第一段：描述社会现象（引出话题） Nowadays some people will do anything to make money,whatever the price. 句意：如今，有些人为了赚钱不惜一切代价。 词汇： nowadays如今（引出社会现象高频词） do anything to do sth.竭尽全力做某事 whatever the price无论代价是什么 作用：先写社会上的错误观念，为下文对比铺垫。 In their view,money is the answer to all of life's problems and will bring them happiness. 句意：在他们看来，金钱是所有生活问题的答案，并能带给他们幸福。 短语： in one’s view在某人看来 the answer to………的答案/解决办法 作用：进一步展开反面观点，让逻辑更完整。 3.第二段：个人观点（核心得分段） In my opinion,people can't do many things without money,but money is not everything. 句意：在我看来，没有钱很多事做不成，但金钱并非一切。 亮点： in my opinion明确表达个人观点 先承认金钱重要，再转折提出中心论点，逻辑非常严谨 考点：but表转折，是本篇核心逻辑词。 There are many things in the world which money cannot buy,such as friendship,love,health and knowledge. 句意：世界上有很多金钱买不到的东西，比如友谊、爱情、健康和知识。 语法亮点： which引导定语从句，提升作文档次 短语： such as例如（用于举例） 作用：给出具体论据，让观点有支撑，不空洞。 What money will bring you depends on your personal beliefs and goals. 句意：金钱能带给你什么，取决于你的个人信念和目标。 语法亮点： What引导主语从句，属于高分句式 depend on取决于 作用：深化主题，体现思考深度，拉开分数差距。 The pursuit of money itself is not wrong,but the appropriate pursuit can make our life full of motivation and achieve a higher goal. 句意：追求金钱本身没有错，但适度的追求能让我们的生活充满动力，并实现更高的目标。 词汇： the pursuit of…对……的追求 appropriate适度的，合理的 motivation动力 achieve a higher goal实现更高目标 作用：总结升华，态度理性、积极、正能量，非常符合考场评分标准。 4.结尾致谢（格式必备） Thank you! 作用：演讲稿标准结束语，简洁礼貌。 评分点：格式完整，必备。 四、整体评分亮点（满分理由） 1.格式完全正确：问候+正文+致谢，符合发言稿要求。 2.要点全覆盖： 社会现象：有人拜金 个人观点：金钱重要但不是一切 举例：友谊、爱情、健康、知识 总结：理性追求金钱 3.逻辑清晰：现象→反面观点→个人观点→论据→升华。 4.句式高级：定语从句、主语从句、并列句、转折句。 5.词汇地道：pursuit,appropriate,motivation,beliefs等高分词汇。 6.字数达标：80词左右，不超不减。 五、写作思路步骤（对照范文可直接套用） 1.开头：用Hello,everyone!问候。 2.第一段：写社会上“金钱至上”的现象。 3.第二段： 先亮明自己观点：金钱重要，但不是一切。 再举例：金钱买不到的东西。 最后升华：理性追求金钱。 4.结尾：用Thank you!结束。 第1页，共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ Unit 5 The Value of Money 练习卷-2025-2026学年人教版高中英语必修第三册 （考试时间：120分钟 满分：150分） 第一部分 词汇知识运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节单句语法填空（共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分） 1.Thereˈs enough information            (indicate) that he has enough patience. 2.           (judge) from the symptoms(症状), I realised it wasnˈt just the stomach flu again. 3.Itˈs considered good           (manner) in some countries to leave a little food on your plate. 4.He accepted the challenging task assigned to him without            (hesitate). 5.The police wanted the witness to answer questions            (honest), and perhaps even volunteer information. 6.We waited and waited;            (eventual), the exciting moment we had been looking forward to came. 7.He received a formal            (apologise) from the express company for the wrong product. 8.The match             (postpone) three times, which makes us all disappointed. 9.She had no option but             (quit) her job in order to take care of her child. 10.I             (drive) down to London when I suddenly found I was in the wrong road. 第二节 单词拼写（共 10小题；每小题 1.5分，满分 15分） 11.How can people            (维持) a friendship when the two people are living far from each other? 12.Analysis of            (要素) in the relics indicates sources similar to those of other cultures along the Yangtze River. 13.The two of them collected more than 1,000            (塑料的) bottles along the 40-day journey. 14.However, I was so absorbed in the           (情节) of the movie that I forgot the time. 15.Just as an old            (谚语) goes, practice makes perfect. 16.As a matter of fact, living without an aim is like            （航行）without directions. 17.The bell rang, which            （表明）the ending of the exam. 18.The            （目的）of the activity is to make us aware of the importance of environmental protection. 19.As usual, the students were doing all            （种类）of things on the playground. 20.As a matter of fact, these newly-bought            （设施）are not only of poor quality, but also expensive. 第二部分 阅读（共两节，满分 50 分） 第一节 （共 15 小题；每小题 2.5 分，满分 37.5 分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A     Packed with high-end watch performance and style, without the high-end price label.     It's everything a high-end watch should be: Solid stainless steel (不锈钢) and real leather construction.

B I was sitting at my kitchen table the other day with a pen, notebook, calculator and a pile of bills. I was doing my monthly budget. There were bills for electric, water, rent, insurance, the car payment, the phone bill, and the cable bill, plus money needed to be set aside for food, gas, clothes and hopefully a little left over to save for those unexpected bills that always seemed to show up. When I was done, I shook my head, closed my eyes and thought of a time long ago when I would regularly get treasures. When I was a boy, we lived across the road from Camp Caesar. It held week-long camps all through the summer and my grandma who I lovingly called "Nanny" worked in her big kitchen. I remember slipping there getting a smile, a hug, a kiss and a hot roll from Nanny. Then she would always dig deep in her pockets and pull out a treasure, a shiny quarter. She would give it to me and I would run down the hill to either get an ice cold can of Coke from the pop machine or I would head to the campˈs swimming pool where I could buy a warm cup of cherry Coke for 15 cents and a tiny 10 cent bag of chips from a stand. I took my time because it was always a big decision. It was nice too feeling so rich for a few minutes. Looking back now I can see that the real treasure was not the quarter at all. It was the love with which Nanny gave it to me. I would have still visited her at work every day if I had never got a single quarter. It was her smile, hugs, and kisses that were priceless in my heart then and now. The old saying is true, "With your work you can make a living, but it is with your love that you make a life." You can always welcome love into your heart, soul and mind. And you can always share your love with others. It is that one treasure that lasts forever. 24.According to Paragraph 1, what was the author trying to figure out? A. Where to get treasures. B. What food and supplies to buy. C. How to sort out these bills at hand. D. How to balance the money available. 25.What does the underlined word "roll" in Paragraph 2 probably refer to? A. A kind of bread. B. A kind of act. C. A sound. D. A greeting. 26.Which of the following best describes Nanny? A. Considerate. B. Generous. C. Affectionate. D. Enthusiastic. 27.Why does the author mention the old saying in the last paragraph? A. To change peopleˈs heart and soul. B. To show what we should value in life. C. To explain work and love can make a life. D. To advise more love and sharing in childhood. C Laozi once said, “Care about what other people think and you will always be their prisoner.” People tend to gain self-worth through others’ approval (认可), which is a fruitless way to go through life. Why do we allow what others think of us to have so much power over how we feel about ourselves? If it’s true that you can’t satisfy all the people all the time, wouldn’t it make sense to stop trying? Unfortunately, sense often isn’t driving our behaviour. For social beings who desire love and belonging, wanting to be liked and caring about the effect we have on others are healthy and allow us to make connections. However, where we get into trouble is when our self-worth is dependent upon whether we win someone’s approval or not. This need to be liked comes from when we were children and were completely dependent on others to take care of us. Small children are not just learning how to walk and communicate, but they are also trying to learn how the world works. We learn about who we are based on communication with others. Thus, to a four-year-old, if Mummy or Daddy doesn’t like him or her, there is the danger that they will abandon them. We need to understand that when we anxiously want someone to approve of us, it’s being driven by that little kid part of us that is still terrified of abandonment. As you become more capable of providing yourself with the approval you find, your need for validation (确认) by others will start to disappear, leaving you stronger, more confident, and yes, happier in your life. Imagine how much time we lose each moment we restrain our real selves in an effort to be liked. So embrace the cliché (老话) and love your true self as it’s highly doubtful that you’ll regret it. 28.Why is Laozi’s quotation used in Paragraph 1? A. To lead into the topic of this passage. B.

They believe it will bring them a sense of pride. D. They consider that approval equals success. 30.What does the underlined word “restrain” most likely mean in the passage? A. Express. B. Hide. C. Confirm. D. Reflect. 31.Which one is the most suitable title of this passage? A. The Power of Self-worth B. Childhood Shapes Behaviour C. The Importance of Approval-seeking D. Staying True to Yourself D Research has shown that people tend to get more happiness from spending their money on experiences, such as travel and entertainment, than on things, such as clothes and electronic goods. But are people happier during the purchased（购买的）experience itself? Or does the happiness come more from expecting or remembering the experience? A new study, published in the Journal of Experimental Social Psychology, offers an answer. Our experiential purchases bring us greater pleasure in terms of expectation and remembrance than do our material purchases, but they also bring us greater in-the-moment enjoyment, the study found. For the study, the researchers recruited 2,635 adults who agreed to receive texts at any time during the day. The texts began with a happiness question, which asked the participants to rate how they felt “right now” on a scale from very bad to very good. Half of them were then asked if they had made a material purchase within the past hour, such as clothing or electronic goods. The others were asked if they had made an experiential purchase within the past hour, such as eating in a restaurant or attending a concert. The researchers found that the purchasers of the experiences express higher levels of happiness than the purchasers of the material goods, no matter how much the purchases cost. To address possible differences in types of purchasers, the researchers conducted a second study in which they researched more than 5,000 adults. “We still observed the same result,” said Amit Kumar, the studyˈs lead author. The researchers said a possible explanation is the endurance（持久）of experiences in peopleˈs memories, while the observed value of material goods weakens over time. “If you want to be happier, it might be wise to shift some of your spending away from material goods and a bit more towards experiences,” Kumar said. “That would likely lead to greater happiness.” 32.Why does the author put forward two questions in paragraph 1? A. To make a fact clear. B. To introduce a new study. C. To compare different research. D. To doubt the opinion presented. 33.Why did the researchers text the participants? A. To ask them about their spending plans. B. To understand their needs and spending habits. C. To find out the change in their purchasing choices. D. To monitor their purchasing behaviour and emotions. 34.What do the underlined words “the same result” in paragraph 5 refer to? A. The desire to purchase things weakens over time. B. People are more willing to spend money on things. C. People get more pleasure from spending money than making it. D. Experiential purchases bring more happiness than material ones. 35.What did Kumar think people should do in the last paragraph? A. Spend more on experiences. B. Make future spending decisions. C. Be happy with what they have bought. D. Consider its value when buying a product. 第二节 七选五(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。 Teenagers Earning Money In the United States, you can only get a full-time job if you are 16 years old or older.
