A
(25-26高一上·深圳高级中学·期中)There are two kinds of parents in modern America, says Alison Gopnik in her recent book, The Gardener and the Carpenter.
The carpenter (木匠) thinks that his or her child can be shaped. “The idea is that if you just do the right things, get the right skills, read the right books, you’re going to be able to shape your child into a particular kind of adult,” she says. The gardener, on the other hand, is less concerned about controlling who the child will become and instead provides a protected space to explore. The style is all about creating a rich, loving but also variable ecosystem.
We assume that children need to be taken care of for a long time. Having that long period of childhood gives you this protected period. And childhood gives you a chance to master that new environment. A lot of the things that seem kind of strange about children — the fact that they’re so creative, so imaginative, so exploratory and yet so bad at taking care of themselves — kind of fit that picture.
Gopnik, a professor at the University of California, Berkeley, says that many parents are carpenters, but they should really create that garden. She spent many years researching children’s development and found that parents often focus too much on who their children will be as adults. The harm in that approach, she says, is that parents and their children may become worried, stressed or unhappy.
“We’re so concerned about how these children are going to turn out that we’re unwilling to give them the freedom that they need to be able to take risks and go out and explore the world,” she says. Interestingly, the less that mothers and fathers worry about outcomes (结果), she says, the better their children may perform in life.
1. How does the carpenter raise children?
A. By leaving them to grow naturally. B. By shaping them through planned effort.
C. By creating a colorful garden to have fun. D. By providing everything to meet their needs.
2. What does Gopnik think of the gardener’s way of raising children?
A. Common and ordinary. B. Fruitless and outdated.
C. Unwise and unrealistic. D. Practical and advisable.
3. What does the underlined word “that” in Paragraph 4 refer to?
A. Focusing too much on children’s future. B. Providing a safe and happy growing space.
C. Allowing children to take various risks. D. Giving children too much freedom.
4. What’s the passage mainly about?
A. The advantages and disadvantages of parenting styles.
B. An introduction to American ways of child raising.
C. A comparison of two kinds of parenting styles.
D. An analysis of the best way of child raising.

(25-26高一上·杭州高级中学·期中) The school year just started on September 7 for New York City students but there’s something new on the curriculum: mindful breathing. This is part of a plan to improve the mental and physical health of students by putting mindfulness into the school day.
The mindful breathing practices will be rolled out soon to all students from kindergarten through 12th grade and will include one-minute to five-minute daily exercises. At least one teacher per school will be trained to lead the breathing exercises.
The program was trialed (试验) in the spring in Public School 5 in the Bedford-Stuyvesant neighborhood in Brooklyn, reported CBS News. Third grade students Noah, Cash and Shawn believe the program is working. “When I get into problems, I take a breath so nothing can happen to me,” Shawn told CBS.
Eric Adams, NYC’s mayor (市长), and David Banks, the school chancellor (校长), said that this is just the first step in creating more mindful schools that will include gardens, peaceful rest spots, and yoga.
While Eastern cultures have used deep breathing exercises for thousands of years, this is something that hasn’t been taught in the Western world, Adams told The New York Times (NYT). “There’s a science to breathing,” he said.
While some say that the program doesn’t go far enough to deal with today’s mental health problems, reported the NYT, the mayor said it’s a low-cost way to help improve students’ well-being. An online program to provide mental health support for high schoolers is being planned but no details have been made public.
“I get asked many questions from parents about ‘What are you doing? Kids are going through a lot. What are your mental health programs?’” Banks said. “There’s nothing more important that we could teach our kids than mindful breathing.”
5. Why is mindful breathing added to NYC students’ curriculum?
A. To build up students’ overall health. B. To reduce teachers’ workload at school.
C. To help students perform better in exams. D. To introduce Eastern culture to Western students.
6. How will the mindful breathing practices be carried out?
A. They’ll be led by trained teachers. B. They’ll only be held in Public School 5.
C. They’ll require all school teachers to join in. D. They’ll be managed by the school headmaster.
7. What can we know about mindful breathing from the passage?
A. It has been used in Western countries for a long time.
B. It has been proved useful in many New York schools.
C. It is a cost-effective program to improve students’ health.
D. It is more useful for high schoolers than junior students.
8. What can we infer about the program from Banks’s words?
A. It is based on science. B. It meets parents’ needs.
C. It receives some doubts. D. It is meant for the sick.
C
(25-26高一上·山东济南一中·期中)When I started my faculty position (教师职位), I was excited to be leading my own lab- and nervous. I’m deaf and rely on lip- reading for verbal communication. I had managed fine as a postdoc (博士后), though not without challenges. But leading a team was different. I had no idea whether I would be able to communicate effectively with my lab members. My pronunciation is sometimes off because of my disability, which leads some people to believe that I lack intelligence.
But after almost 2 years in the position, I’ve come up with a set of solutions to help me out. In addition to regular one- on- one meetings with my students, I decided to have each student work with me for entire days in the lab when they first join my group. That way, they can see what I’m doing and ask questions as we go along. And time with the students allows me to carefully explain the principle behind each experimental step.
I also established written communication as the most important way to exchange information. Through instant messaging services, I can quickly reach out to my students and share ideas, materials and links. Before they get going with any experiment, I ask them to write a detailed protocol (实验计划) as well, which has allowed me to double- check whenever I spot something that I must have missed during our verbal discussions.
At first, I feared my students would feel that writing out all of their experimental design steps and data analysis plans was unnecessary. But they’ve told me this step allows them to deepen their understanding of the project before starting experiments.
I’m still early in my faculty career, but I feel these strategies are working well for me. I no longer worry that I’m missing important information. And I’ve been able to guide students in a way that would have been difficult for me to do through verbal communication alone. Looking back, I wish I’d followed these strategies earlier in my career.
9. What was the author’s concern at the beginning of his faculty position?
A. He couldn’t get along with others. B. He had insufficient work experience.
C. He couldn’t focus on scientific research. D. He would suffer communication problems.
10. Which of the following shows the author’s efforts to improve his teaching effect?
A. Encouraging communication in various ways. B. Strengthening students’ interest in science.
C. Connecting students whenever possible. D. Asking students to learn lip- reading.
11. What was the result of the students’ writing down protocols?
A. It practiced their writing skills. B. It slowed down the project process.
C. It benefited both the author and the students. D. It inspired them to come up with new ideas.
12. What is the author’s tone (语气) at the end of the text?
A. Surprised. B. Confident. C. Regretful. D. Anxious.
三、阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Think back to the last time you shopped for fruits and vegetables. You may have noticed some items labelled with the word “organic”. 1
“Organic” refers to the way food is grown. To be labelled as organic, food production must meet strict guidelines. These can be different depending on where you live. In the United States, organic foods must be grown or raised without using pesticides or chemical fertilizers.
2 That changed after the Industrial Revolution. During the 20th century, many ideas that were used by factories and big businesses were put into action on farms. This helped some farms grow larger and produce more.
The organic movement was started to get back to the old traditional ways of farming. Why? Many believe the chemicals and pesticides used in modern farming can be harmful to your health. 3 And those who support the organic movement also point to its benefits for the environment.
Have you ever compared organic and non-organic foods at the grocery store? If so, you know that organic food tend to cost more. This happens for many reasons. Organic farming produces fewer crops. 4 Additionally, organic farms spend more money taking care of the animals they raise. These and other factors drive the cost of organic food up.
Is organic food worth the extra cost? Some people believe it is. They may think it tastes better or just prefer to eat food that has not been grown using chemicals. 5 They are still trying to find a major difference between organic and non-organic food in terms of safety, nutrition, or taste. Still, others argue that the environmental benefits of organic food make it worth the price.
A. Have you ever wondered what that means?
B. The cost of production is also usually higher.
C. For most of history, almost all food was organic.
D. Many people are willing to pay more for organic food.
E. Some also think organic foods are naturally more nutritious.
F. Are you wondering if organic food is right for you?
G. Scientists have studied organic and non-organic foods for many years now.

C
(25-26高一上·山东济南一中·期中)When I started my faculty position (教师职位), I was excited to be leading my own lab- and nervous. I’m deaf and rely on lip- reading for verbal communication. I had managed fine as a postdoc (博士后), though not without challenges. But leading a team was different. I had no idea whether I would be able to communicate effectively with my lab members. My pronunciation is sometimes off because of my disability, which leads some people to believe that I lack intelligence.
But after almost 2 years in the position, I’ve come up with a set of solutions to help me out. In addition to regular one- on- one meetings with my students, I decided to have each student work with me for entire days in the lab when they first join my group. That way, they can see what I’m doing and ask questions as we go along. And time with the students allows me to carefully explain the principle behind each experimental step.
I also established written communication as the most important way to exchange information. Through instant messaging services, I can quickly reach out to my students and share ideas, materials and links. Before they get going with any experiment, I ask them to write a detailed protocol (实验计划) as well, which has allowed me to double- check whenever I spot something that I must have missed during our verbal discussions.
At first, I feared my students would feel that writing out all of their experimental design steps and data analysis plans was unnecessary. But they’ve told me this step allows them to deepen their understanding of the project before starting experiments.
I’m still early in my faculty career, but I feel these strategies are working well for me. I no longer worry that I’m missing important information. And I’ve been able to guide students in a way that would have been difficult for me to do through verbal communication alone. Looking back, I wish I’d followed these strategies earlier in my career.

10. Which of the following shows the author’s efforts to improve his teaching effect?
A. Encouraging communication in various ways. B. Strengthening students’ interest in science.
C. Connecting students whenever possible. D. Asking students to learn lip- reading.
11. What was the result of the students’ writing down protocols?
A. It practiced their writing skills. B. It slowed down the project process.
C. It benefited both the author and the students. D. It inspired them to come up with new ideas.
12. What is the author’s tone (语气) at the end of the text?

推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“I’m still early in my faculty career, but I feel these strategies are working well for me. I no longer worry that I’m missing important information.”(我仍处于教师生涯的初期,但我觉得这些策略对我很有用。我不再担心错过重要信息。)可推知,作者对自己采取的策略充满信心。故选B。
三、阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Think back to the last time you shopped for fruits and vegetables. You may have noticed some items labelled with the word “organic”. 1
“Organic” refers to the way food is grown. To be labelled as organic, food production must meet strict guidelines. These can be different depending on where you live. In the United States, organic foods must be grown or raised without using pesticides or chemical fertilizers.
2 That changed after the Industrial Revolution. During the 20th century, many ideas that were used by factories and big businesses were put into action on farms. This helped some farms grow larger and produce more.
The organic movement was started to get back to the old traditional ways of farming. Why? Many believe the chemicals and pesticides used in modern farming can be harmful to your health. 3 And those who support the organic movement also point to its benefits for the environment.
Have you ever compared organic and non-organic foods at the grocery store? If so, you know that organic food tend to cost more. This happens for many reasons. Organic farming produces fewer crops. 4 Additionally, organic farms spend more money taking care of the animals they raise. These and other factors drive the cost of organic food up.
Is organic food worth the extra cost? Some people believe it is. They may think it tastes better or just prefer to eat food that has not been grown using chemicals. 5 They are still trying to find a major difference between organic and non-organic food in terms of safety, nutrition, or taste. Still, others argue that the environmental benefits of organic food make it worth the price.
A. Have you ever wondered what that means?
B. The cost of production is also usually higher.
C. For most of history, almost all food was organic.
D. Many people are willing to pay more for organic food.
E. Some also think organic foods are naturally more nutritious.
F. Are you wondering if organic food is right for you?
G. Scientists have studied organic and non-organic foods for many years now.
【答案】1. A 2. C 3. E 4. B 5. G
