四、阅读理解专练
(一)
When Li Jia entered Grade 10, she was terrified of speaking English in public. As a quiet girl, she always hid at the back of the classroom, never raising her hand, even when she knew the answer. Her English teacher, Ms. Wang, noticed this.
One afternoon, Ms. Wang asked Li Jia to stay after class. Instead of criticizing her, Ms. Wang shared her own story: she used to be too shy to speak English, too, until she joined a speech competition in college. “Your pronunciation is beautiful, and your logic is clear,” Ms. Wang said. “I want you to join the school’s English speech contest this semester.”
Li Jia’s first reaction was to refuse. The thought of standing in front of hundreds of people made her hands shake. But Ms. Wang didn’t give up. She promised to help Li Jia prepare, from writing the speech to practicing every word. “We’ll take it step by step,” she said. “No rush.”
For the next two months, they met every afternoon after class. Ms. Wang helped Li Jia pick a topic she cared about: her experience of growing up with her grandma in the countryside. They revised the speech again and again, and Ms. Wang taught her how to control her voice, make eye contact, and relax on stage.
When the contest day came, Li Jia still felt nervous. But when she saw Ms. Wang sitting in the front row, smiling and giving her a thumbs-up, she took a deep breath and began to speak. She didn’t win the first prize, but she finished the speech perfectly, and the audience gave her a warm round of applause.
After the contest, Li Jia walked up to Ms. Wang, tears in her eyes. “Thank you,” she said. “I never thought I could do this.”
Now in Grade 11, Li Jia is no longer the shy girl hiding at the back. She often volunteers to speak in class, and she even became the host of the school’s English corner. For her, that speech contest wasn’t just a competition — it was the day she found her voice.

Science fiction stories about machines “stealing” our jobs may soon become reality. However, if history is any indication, technological progress will create more jobs in different fields. The real question is not whether a machine will take your job, but whether you will rise to the challenge of learning to stay relevant. When you become a lifelong learner, you claim the power to face the future of work successfully.
What does it mean to be a lifelong learner? It is a cycle of “learn, unlearn, and relearn”. Learning something you are actually interested in is always enjoyable. Unlearning, however, is quite different. It means challenging and removing old ideas, beliefs, and assumptions so that new ones can grow. There are many metaphors for unlearning, for example: removing old paint before putting on a fresh coat. When a professor delivers a keynote speech online for the first time, he steps out of his comfort zone, unlearns “old ways” of doing things, and relearns the skill of working from home.
Lifelong learning is more important now than ever. The labor market has changed considerably in the past decade. According to a recent report, companies’ adoption of automation will transform tasks, jobs, and skills. Over the next five to ten years, employers will divide work between humans and machines roughly equally. Nearly half of workers will need to retrain their core skills.
Companies now hire based on skills rather than official qualifications. Self-management skills like active learning, toughness, and problem-solving skills are growing in importance.
Mastering one skill is not enough. To stay relevant, you must make learning new skills an ongoing habit. Personal development strengthens your mind and creates higher levels of self-confidence. Professional development boosts your value in the workplace. Both are essential for surviving in a rapidly changing world.
As machines get smarter, human workers must do the same. Lifelong learners invent and reinvent themselves whenever they find or create the opportunity. This is not about job-switching — it is about ensuring you remain a valuable person, whether in your current job or a new one.
45. What is the main challenge in the era of hi-tech progress?
A. Finding new jobs. B. Competing with machines.
C. Keeping skills relevant. D. Acquiring official qualifications.
46. What is the author’s attitude towards “unlearning” in paragraph 2?
A. Supportive. B. Dismissive.
C. Concerned. D. Indifferent.
47. What is suggested for workers according to paragraph 3?
A. Taking the place of machines. B. Improving their core techniques.
C. Switching to different industries. D. Applying for more job opportunities.
48. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?
A. To encourage lifelong learning.
B. To recommend skill courses.
C. To warn of the dangers of automation.
D. To compare learning methods.

Amid the widespread of tech tools, individuals with high digital fluency rarely set aside time for handwriting in everyday life. The painstaking effort of laying out thoughts letter by letter on paper is fading away in an era dominated by screens, where online messages and finger-typed shopping lists have replaced handwritten letters and reminder notes. To keep up with this trend, numerous schools introduce digital devices as early as preschool, so some children even master typing fundamentals before they learn to write by hand. While electronic keyboards offer evident efficiency benefits, as we can see, giving up handwriting often comes with a heavy price.
Compared with text input methods, typing ignores the shape of the letters completely, which only calls for relatively easy, straightforward and consistent motions, whereas handwriting is a complex task. The motor system has to finely adjust the pressure that each finger applies to the pen to recreate each letter properly. What makes it more complicated is that your visual system must continuously process that letter as it’s being written, with your brain making adjustments to fingers in real time to form the letters’ shapes. “This process allows your body and what you see to work in perfect harmony,” says Robert Wiley, a cognitive psychologist at the University of North Carolina, adding that such complexity is essential to mental development.
In broader educational terms, replacing pens and paper with screens and keyboards may weaken children’s ability to recognize and learn letters, which actually serves as a key predictor of later reading and math achievement. If young children are not receiving any handwriting training, their brains likely won’t reach their full potential. For adults, typing usually leads to a lack of deep information processing. During a lecture, it’s possible to type what they’re hearing word for word. But all too often, they simply type blindly, failing to absorb and internalize the content to some degree. By contrast, taking notes by hand forces them to write only key words and use drawings or arrows to work through interconnected ideas.
From a down-to-earth perspective, we don’t have to abandon digital tools, like tablets and smart pens, to take advantage of the power of handwriting. Recent research suggests that writing on a screen activates the same brain pathways as writing on paper. It’s the physical movement that counts, rather than the medium itself. This idea provides a promising direction for tech designers to explore.
49. What does the author mainly convey in Paragraph 1?
A. Digital literacy is overlooked nowadays. B. Handwritten communication is out of date.
C. Abandoning handwriting proves unwise. D. Computer courses are unusual in preschools.
50. Why is handwriting considered a complex task?
A. It applies steady finger pressure to recreate letter shapes.
B. It relies on the brain system to process letters as they form.
C. It uses real-time visual senses to complete letter creation.
D. It involves precise finger pressure and visual processing.
51. What can be inferred from Paragraph 3?
A. Handwritten notes help connect related ideas.
B. Handwriting training determines kids’ full brain potential.
C. Taking notes by hand doesn’t involve deep thinking in this case.
D. Typing word for word often helps people process information deeply.
52. What is the author most likely to discuss next?
A. The benefits of handwriting in the digital age.
B. Reasons why school prefer typing over writing.
C. Tech products that simulate handwriting motions.
D. Ways to reduce the use of digital tools in classroom.

In recent decades, psychologists have identified two contrasting mindsets that greatly influence learning and personal development: fixed mindset and growth mindset. A fixed mindset is characterized by the belief that intelligence, talent and ability are innate and unchangeable. Individuals with this mindset tend to avoid challenges, fearing that failure will expose their limitations. They view effort as a sign of weakness and often give up easily when facing difficulties.
In contrast, a growth mindset is rooted in the belief that abilities can be developed and improved through dedication, learning and persistence. People with a growth mindset embrace challenges, seeing them as opportunities to grow. They regard failure not as a judgment of their ability but as valuable feedback that helps them learn and adjust. They understand that effort is the path to mastery and are willing to work hard to achieve their goals.
Research has shown that students with a growth mindset perform better academically than those with a fixed mindset. They are more resilient in the face of setbacks, more motivated to learn, and more likely to reach their full potential. For example, when solving difficult math problems, growth‑mindset students keep trying and learn from mistakes, while fixed‑mindset students quickly give up, believing they are not smart enough.
Developing a growth mindset is essential for high school students. It helps them overcome self‑doubt, build confidence and develop a lifelong love of learning. By understanding that abilities can be improved, students can free themselves from the fear of failure and unlock their hidden potential. In the journey of life, a growth mindset is not only a key to academic success but also a powerful tool for personal growth.
