(2026全国一卷)Museums, once quiet places filled with history, are now full of digital excitement. By using machine learning and advanced algorithms(算法), these institutions are creating personalized visitor journeys, protecting delicate collections, and revealing hidden stories. ____36____
AI transforms a standard museum trip into a personalized and interactive adventure. Smart recommendation engines analyze data such as exhibit popularity and visitors’ past behavior to suggest specific exhibits and events, making each visit unique and surprising. ____37____ These digital assistants engage visitors in dynamic conversations and offer context-sensitive insights that deepen understanding and satisfy curiosity.
Beyond visitor interaction, AI plays a crucial role in preserving priceless artworks. Since the exhibits in museums sustain natural decay(破损) over time, early detection is vital. AI can help identify the slightest signs of decay, such as cracks or discoloration, which are often invisible to the human eye. ____38____ Moreover, by predicting future decay patterns, AI helps museums take preventive measures and improve preservation strategies.
AI also significantly enhances the educational value of museums, particularly for children and families. ____39____ For instance, interactive exhibits powered by AI can adjust their content and difficulty level based on the user’s preferences and responses. This adaptability ensures that complex historical concepts become accessible and engaging for young minds.
Looking ahead, the rapid advancement of AI promises both exciting possibilities and ethical (伦理的) challenges. Museums are working together with AI ethicists to develop fair algorithms. ____40____ Strict policies should be established to protect visitors’ information.

(2026全国二卷)
Ways to Teach Kids Work Ethic Early
Ever watched your child try to get out of doing housework by making excuses? If only the effort they put into avoiding responsibility could be redirected into, well, actual responsibility. In fact, building work ethic(道德) in kids doesn’t require military-style drills. Here are four simple and practical ways.
●Make housework part of the family routine.
Involve your child in the daily running of the house: tidying toys, feeding the dog, watering the plants. ____36____ When the tasks become as routine as brushing teeth, kids internalise that helping with housework is simply part of life.
●____37____
You can’t expect your child to tackle their tasks with enthusiasm while you’re complaining about loading the dishwasher. If your child sees you enjoying your work and taking pride in a job well done, they’re far more likely to do the same.
●Build determination through goals.
____38____ Sometimes you have to help them find their “thing.” Set small, achievable goals together with them and celebrate progress, not perfection. The trick is to let them struggle a bit — resist the urge to help fix things the moment they experience a setback.
●Treat mistakes as opportunities.
Few things strike fear into a child’s heart like the prospect of failing. The best way is to normalise mistakes as a natural part of learning. When kids mess up, don’t jump in with a rescue mission. ____39____
Teaching kids work ethic is to gently and consistently push them toward responsibility, determination, and pride in their efforts. ____40____ No worry. Those habits you’re building now are setting your child up for a lifetime of resilience(韧性) and satisfaction.
A. The key is consistency.
B. Help kids develop analytical skills.
C. Model the work ethic you want to see.
D. Instead, encourage them to do differently next time.
E. Sometimes, a cleaner living room is the best reward.
F. Progress can be slow, and you’ll wonder if it’s all sinking in.
G. Not every child is born with the willpower of a marathon runner.

考点一 方法策略(说明文)
Passage 1
(2025-2026学年河北衡水中学高三年级小学期期末综合素质评价)Shyness is a feeling of discomfort you may have in social settings, preventing you from reaching personal or social goals. Are you a shy person? Does the thought of having a conversation with a stranger make your stomach turn? 1 Just like any undesirable characteristics, you can tackle shyness with the right tools.
2 Socially anxious individuals frequently have negative thoughts running through their heads. “I look awkward,” “No one is talking to me,” or “I am going to look like a fool,” are all these thoughts. As you can probably tell, these thoughts are all negative and will only serve to keep you feeling shy and self-conscious. You can break the habit of negative thoughts by becoming aware of when you are falling victim to them and by challenging their logic.
Be approachable. Would you approach somebody with a bitter expression on their face or with their head down on their desk? Not likely. Our body language can allow others to make assumptions about us before we even speak. 3 Sit leaning(倾斜) forward in the direction of the person you are talking to, keep your legs and arms open, and maintain a relaxed posture.
Give sincere compliments(赞扬). No need to be over the top. Some of the greatest conversations started with “I like your shirt. Did you get it at that store?” 4 What’s more, you are guaranteed to walk away with a smile because complimenting others makes you feel good too.
Take small steps. Try to make progress in small, easily broken down, and identifiable steps. This gives you something new to learn every time, and you can proudly keep track of progress. Keep doing things like having conversations with new people and seeking out opportunities to connect with others. 5
A. Adjust your mindset.
B. Focus your attention outward.
C. Feelings like these are common and are easy to overcome with practice.
D. Open body language sends a message to others that you are willing to interact.
E. Celebrate small wins, whether it is giving a few compliments or not.
F. They give others a positive impression of you because you made them feel good.
G. Your body language determines how people perceive you and how you perform.
Passage 2
(2026届江苏省苏州市高三5月考前学情自测英语试题)In the digital era, many people find it increasingly difficult to stay focused on a single task. We are constantly interrupted by alerts and the urge to check our phones. This phenomenon is often described as “fragmented attention”, where our minds jump from one thing to another without deep engagement. 6
To tackle this, the concept of “Deep Work” has gained popularity. It refers to the ability to focus without interruption on a mentally demanding task. 7 It allows you to master complicated information and produce better results in less time. However, achieving this state requires more than just willpower.
8 Just as athletes train their bodies, you must train your brain to resist distractions(分心). Start by scheduling specific “deep work” sessions in your calendar. During these times, turn off all notifications and move your phone to another room.
Another effective strategy is “mono-tasking”. Many people believe they are good at multitasking, but research shows that our brains aren’t wired for it. 9 When you switch between tasks, “attention residue” occurs, meaning part of your focus remains on the previous task.
Finally, embrace boredom. 10 Instead of reaching for your phone during every free moment, let your mind wander. This strengthens your “focus muscle” and makes it easier to engage in deep work when you actually need to.
A. Such interrupted work patterns leave us mentally exhausted yet unproductive.
B. Constant multitasking actually reshapes the brain in the long term.
C. This focused mental state is a highly valuable skill in today’s workplace.
D. The real secret lies in cutting off all human contact in your spare time.
E. In reality, we are merely shifting our focus rapidly rather than dividing it equally.
F. People nowadays heavily rely on digital devices for entertainment.
G. Training focus is more about environment control than self-discipline.
Passage 3
(2026届湖北十堰市郧阳中学高三最后一次模拟考试英语试题)Which is more beneficial to English learning, paper or electronic dictionaries? 11 Instead of taking sides blindly, learners should apply them properly based on different learning stages and practical needs.
Paper dictionaries feature exploratory learning. When turning pages, you will unavoidably encounter new words, phrases and typical sentences. 12 They also help deepen memory, as paper layout and physical use strengthen long-term word recall. Besides, they offer complete collocation and style information without digital distractions.
13 They allow instant word lookup without breaking your reading train of thought. Most are equipped with audio pronunciation, personalized word lists and spaced repetition systems to facilitate efficient vocabulary review. Top-grade ones are even connected to massive language corpora(语料库), revealing how certain words are employed in real-life contexts.
Wise use of dictionaries lies in matching tools with learning tasks. For primary school students, paper dictionaries serve as a good helper to develop basic dictionary-searching skills. 14 Senior high school learners may rely mainly on electronic dictionaries for efficiency, while keeping a paper one at hand to check confusing word usages in depth. College students can combine both, with electronic tools for quick inquiry and paper ones for accurate writing.
Some universal rules should be followed to make the most of dictionaries: try to guess word meanings before looking them up; turn to English explanations rather than Chinese versions; attach greater importance to example sentences than simple definitions. By sticking to these good habits, you can achieve a perfect balance between depth and efficiency. 15 All in all, dictionaries are merely learning tools. The ultimate goal is to cultivate independent thinking and the ability to use words flexibly in diverse contexts.
A. But they have obvious drawbacks as well.
B. Such a heated debate has persisted for years.
C. Electronic dictionaries represent efficient learning.
D. This unintended exposure boosts vocabulary expansion.
E. Daily reading is the ideal occasion for us to consult dictionaries.
F. Also, you’d better review newly learned words at regular intervals.
G. Middle school students can use both fully for respective learning purposes.
Passage 4
(2026届河南驻马店经济开发区高级中学高三第二学期5月质量检测)Being a camp counselor(辅导员) is an exciting and important job! You help campers have a lot of fun, learn new things, and feel safe. To be great at it, you need the right skills and a positive attitude. These five tips will show you how to lead, listen, and create amazing memories for everyone at camp!
Be enthusiastic in every activity. 16 Show enthusiasm to motivate the group, whether it’s an exciting outdoor activity or a quieter indoor craft session. Even during activities that can seem less exciting, like rainy-day games, your enthusiasm can transform the experience.
Listen actively to your campers. Being a good listener is one of the most important features of a great camp counselor. 17 When they share their thoughts or feelings, give them your full attention, and respond thoughtfully. This builds trust and shows you care about them.
Be open to trying new things. Campers often look up to their counselors as role models. 18 Be willing to try new activities, even if they’re outside your usual interests. Whether it’s attempting a climbing wall or joining a dance-off, your willingness inspires your campers to do the same.
19 Campers often come up with creative ideas or suggestions for activities. Instead of dismissing these ideas, take them seriously. Even when an idea doesn’t work out perfectly, the camper will feel valued knowing their input matters.
Use positive language. The way you communicate with campers matters. Instead of focusing on what they mustn’t do, guide them with positive instructions. For example, instead of saying, “Don’t run,” say, “Please walk.” 20
A. Encourage camper ideas.
B. Always be patient when resolving conflicts.
C. Campers want to feel heard and understood.
D. By doing so, your instructions are easier to remember.
E. This slight change makes them more likely to cooperate.
F. Your energy and excitement set the tone for your campers.
G. To encourage them to step out of their comfort zones, you need to do the same.
Passage 5
(2026届甘肃省武威市凉州区联考高三模拟预测英语试题)
Tips for Reading Effectively
Reading is a lifelong skill that everyone needs in study and daily life, but many people never learn to read efficiently. They often spend plenty of time on reading yet gain little useful information. 21 Here are several practical and easy methods to help you improve your reading skills.
Preview before reading. Spending one or two minutes previewing the article before reading is a good habit. 22 Look at headings, subheadings, pictures, charts and the first sentence of each paragraph. This simple operation helps you get a general idea of the whole passage and know what the text is mainly about.
Adjust your reading speed flexibly. There is no need to read every single word slowly. Slow down for difficult and key parts that need deep understanding; skim quickly for trivial details and main ideas. 23
Take notes while reading. It is helpful to write down key points, core information or your own questions during reading. 24 It can help you focus your attention and sort out the text logic clearly.
Review regularly after reading. Go over what you’ve read within 24 hours to deepen your memory and understand the content better. 25 Only reading with clear purposes can bring you real progress.
A. It’s a waste of time to read without a purpose.
B. Many students read word by word, which is slow.
C. Previewing takes only a few minutes but saves time later.
D. Good readers know when to speed up or slow down.
E. You can also underline important information and key sentences.
F. Reading is one of the best ways to gain knowledge.
G. Without effective strategies, reading can be slow and tiring.
考点二 介绍说明(说明文)
Passage 1
(2026届江苏省南通市海安高级中学5月高三年级阶段性学情测试英语试题)In everyday communication, we exchange not only logical information but also emotions, attitudes and inner states. Since human beings are emotional creatures, our decisions, whether significant or trivial, are often driven more by emotions than by pure reason. Therefore, to express strong emotions clearly, we tend to use words like very, so and truly in daily language. 1
Verbal intensifiers(强化词) are special function words that enhance the meaning, especially the emotional meaning of the words they are attached to. 2 According to Buzarov (1998), intensification is a stable and vital feature of informal language. Words such as awfully, deeply, tremendously, and truly help speakers strengthen emotional impact and influence listeners’ psychological perception.
3 In English, we often say “I am deeply grateful” or “He is dead tired.” Other languages also have similar words: очень in Russian, sehr in German, très in French. Some new intensifiers are even created by combining words, like fantabulous from fantastic and fabulous.
To make the most of intensifiers, we should use them with a clear purpose. Do not use them mindlessly. 4 Connect them with your genuine attitude and focus on conveying precise emotions. This way, appropriate use of intensifiers will make our words more powerful and sincere.
Intensifiers, like any other linguistic tool, work best in the right context. 5 However, overusing them without necessity will only weaken their expressive effect and make our words sound empty. Mastering them wisely helps us become more proficient and persuasive communicators.
A. Proper use is a smart linguistic choice.
B. These function words have great expressive value.
C. You’d better use them to express real ideas and emotions.
D. Using intensifiers at will influences emotional expression.
E. Intensifiers are used to simplify the meaning of other words.
F. This is why verbal intensifiers have emerged in languages worldwide.
G. They are commonly employed across languages and take on diverse forms.
Passage 2
(2026届湖北省黄冈市黄冈中学高三英语标准考试题)We all experience moments like this: a friend doesn’t reply to your message, or someone walks right past you without noticing. Most people move on quickly, but for those who are sensitive to rejection, these small moments feel heavy. 6 .
Rejection sensitivity means often expecting others to reject you, even when there is no real sign of it. People who think this way pay too much attention to others’ words, tone, or silence. A late reply can feel like “They don’t like me,” and a serious face may seem like “They’re upset with me.” Because of this fear, they try to protect themselves by avoiding eye contact, keeping quiet, or pulling away. 7 — sometimes creating the very rejection they were afraid of. The good news is that gentle, intentional habits can help.
Challenge your first reaction. Feelings are not facts. When your mind jumps to the worst explanation, pause and ask: What else could this mean? 8 . Try writing down at least two neutral(中性的) possibilities before accepting the negative one. This simple practice helps calm emotional overreaction.
Express your needs openly. People with rejection sensitivity often hide their feelings, hoping others will understand without being told. 9 . Try speaking clearly and kindly: “When I didn’t hear back, I felt a bit unsure. Could we talk later?” Honest communication builds trust and reduces unnecessary worry.
10 . If someone reaches out to you, offer a small sign of openness — a smile, a short reply, or a simple “thank you.” These small gestures show that you welcome connection. Over time, they help soften the habit of pulling away.
A. Pursue stronger bonds with others
B. But silence easily causes confusion
C. Respond warmly when others show care
D. They are always searching for ways to relieve their anxiety
E. Sadly, this distance can make them seem cold or unfriendly
F. They may immediately assume something is wrong with them
G. Perhaps the other person is busy, stressed, or simply distracted
Passage 3
(2026届湖南长沙市知源中学高三全真模拟适应性考试)In the digital age, academic research leans heavily on online resources, yet sifting through the vast data to find credible, relevant info can be tough. Here are some balanced guides.
Define your research question clearly. A focused, specific question — say, narrowing “technology and education” to “mobile apps and high school math scores” — keeps you from wandering into irrelevance. ____11____ This clarity saves time on materials that don’t serve your thesis.
Pick the right tools. General engines like Google work for basics, but academic databases (Google Scholar, JSTOR) are better for scholarly work. ____12____ Unlike general sites, which mix in blogs and non-academic content, these databases prioritize peer-reviewed, expert-vetted papers — critical for building strong arguments.
Use precise keywords. Broad terms flood results; break your question into specific concepts. ____13____ For “social media’s impact on teens’ mental health,” combine “social media,” “mental health,” and “adolescents” with “AND” to narrow things down.
Evaluate sources carefully. Check authors’ expertise (are they field experts?) and publication dates — ____14____ In fast-moving fields like tech or medicine, older sources might miss recent findings. Also, follow citations(引用) in sources to find related studies.
Take organized notes as you gather info. ____15____ Jot down key points and source details (authors, dates, titles) to make referencing easier later. Tools like Goodnotes help keep notes neat.
Cross-verify critical info across sources. A key fact or argument needs support from several reputable works to strengthen your paper’s validity (有效性) and show thorough research.
A. Using same-meaning or related terms can also expand your search results.
B. Avoid relying on one source for important information.
C. Take time to understand the boundary of your research before diving in.
D. They are designed to separate out non-academic content and prioritize quality.
E. Make sure to record not just the information but also the source details.
F. Narrowing down your focus early on will save you a lot of time later.
G. Older sources may not reflect the latest developments in your field.
Passage 4
(2025-2026学年福建厦门市同安实验中学高三下学期第四次月考)In Jingdezhen, known as China’s capital of porcelain, a quiet change is taking place. The city now offers visitors more than just finished porcelain products. ___16___
The experience follows a clear process guided by skilled artisans. Visitors first roll the clay to remove the air inside and make it soft. Then, at a turntable, they shape the material with their hands and cups, bowls or small vases slowly take form. ___17___ After shaping, they add colors or words to the work, which is then fired in a kiln(瓷窑). Days later, it is mailed to their home, bringing a pleasant surprise.
This kind of experience differs greatly from buying a finished product. A store product may be perfect. It offers little emotional connection, though. ___18___ Every small imperfection — an uneven edge or a fingerprint — tells a story. The waiting time adds meaning. When the package finally arrives, opening it feels like meeting an old friend. Pride and joy come from the whole-hearted dedication.
___19___ During the process, local artisans share knowledge of traditional techniques. Ancient skills become real and touchable. Visitors learn about the seventy-two steps of porcelain making, gaining a deep insight into this time-honored Chinese craft.
Today, pottery workshops have grown into a popular highlight of Jingdezhen’s cultural tourism. ___20___ More importantly, they connect visitors to tradition in a meaningful way.
A. The process takes patience and focus.
B. It invites them to create their own china.
C. It also integrates tradition into technology.
D. That’s because it never bears your own touch.
E. They meet people’s desire for hands-on experiences.
F. But a self-made piece is heavy with unique memories.
G. The experience helps build a living link to cultural roots.
Passage 5
(2026届浙江宁波市镇海中学高三下学期模拟预测英语试题)
Chasing colors
When you grow too familiar with the city you live in, it’s easy to overlook the scenery during your daily walks. But what if your next footstep came with a small twist — following a specific color as your guide?
This idea, known as a “color walk”, has recently gained popularity on social media both in China and abroad. ____21____
As the trend spreads, many netizens have begun sharing photos online, while some cities have released color-walk guides for residents.
____22____ In Shenzhen, Guangdong province, for example, those searching for pink might find bougainvillea in Shenzhen International Garden and Flower Expo Park, or trumpet-shaped flowers along parks and roads. ____23____
But beyond the colors themselves, this simple activity may also lead to unexpected discoveries. ____24____ “After a whole day of color walking, the world felt brand new,” one netizen wrote on Sina Weibo. “Places I used to overlook suddenly seemed worth noticing — a yellow bicycle under a tree, or a yellow taxi parked behind a house.”
____25____ Sometimes, all it takes is a single color to turn an ordinary walk into a small act of rediscovery.
A. Participants choose a single color and challenge themselves to spot objects, buildings, and scenery in that hue along the way.
B. In Yichang, Hubei province, nearly 40,000 square meters of rapeseed blossoms form a bright yellow sea beneath the blue sky.
C. Many find that this focused observation brings back a sense of freshness to familiar routes.
D. This practice turns an ordinary walk into a more engaging and mindful experience.
E. It encourages people to see their surroundings from a different angle.
F. City governments are also using this trend to promote local tourism.
G. The idea was first introduced by an artist in the United States.
考点三 其他文体(记叙文+议论文)
Passage 1
(2026年江苏徐州市5月考前模拟预测高三年级试题英语试卷)
My Quiet Green Escape in the City
I had driven past a local park in Melbourne many times without stopping. Then one morning in 2022, I was stuck in heavy traffic and saw soft mist rising from the trees in the early sunlight. The peaceful view instantly lifted my mood and eased my stress about the busy day ahead. At that moment, I decided to pause and visit the park at least once a week during my commute. 1 .
The very next day, I left the busy road, parked my car and walked into the quiet green space. I passed a large sports field where dogs run around and small birds fly low over the grass. Further inside, there is a calm pond home to ducks and slow-moving turtles. 2 . It creates a quiet natural corner hidden from the noisy city.
When I reach my favourite quiet spot deep in the park, all traffic noise and work worries completely disappear. I stand under a tall old eucalyptus tree surrounded by young small trees. 3 . I have visited so many times, and I have found every season brings different natural smells to this special place.
I once flew over green countryside in a hot-air balloon and heard bees buzzing around flowering treetops. 4 — with sweet honey smells from falling eucalyptus flowers and fresh sharp citrus scents from young plants. In summer, strong natural oil from the trees fills the air, a gentle reminder of local bushfire risks. Autumn brings fresh earthy mushroom smells, and winter rain falling through leaves smells soft and sweet.
5 . I saw small beautiful gardens even beside busy railways when I travelled abroad. No one can fully explain why green nature calms our minds, but it is the true colour of life and growth. Grey concrete city areas cannot nourish our hearts. I truly advise everyone to find a small wild green place nearby, change your daily route a little, and spend a few quiet minutes breathing peacefully in nature.
A. In spring, my park feels just the same
B. I have kept this promise to myself ever since
C. Natural green spaces comfort people everywhere
D. The beautiful ponds and lands deeply touched me
E. The park view eases tiredness emotion from work
F. Around it, wild plants grow freely with no human disturbance
G. I close my eyes, take slow deep breaths and always feel calm and relaxed
Passage 2
(2026年浙江宁波市镇海中学 5月高三高考模拟英语试题)I have always loved to travel and experience new things and for many years my travels were one big checklist with flights from city to city, “must-do lists” and pins on Google maps. 6 Maybe it started after the pandemic, when we were all forced to learn to appreciate the little things in everyday life. Or maybe I have always had some slow travel tendencies in me.
7 Not rushing with a pre-determined plan, but taking the time to get to know the area. Having time to wander casually along towards the little handwritten sign and not just visiting popular scenic spots. What I discovered when I started to slow down, was that I SAW more. I found small family vineyards that no guidebook or influencer would ever discover. I had time to talk to the people I met, and I took the time to sit down at a small cafe that no one would ever recommend. 8
One thing I have also discovered, as a result of my slower travel, is that I very rarely book my trips far in advance these days. A good example is this summer’s road trip, where the route and final destination in France were decided two days before departure. There was no must-do list to check off, there were no map pins that needed to be visited. 9 What we managed to do, we managed to do. What we didn’t manage to do, we’ll do next time. It’s always possible to go back to a destination that you don’t feel finished with — one of the reasons why I’ve visited Australia six times and will probably never feel finished with that country.
Another aspect that is important for the future of travel is sustainability. Staying longer in one place lowers carbon emissions, helps boost local economy and lets you enjoy authentic local life. You also have more time to walk and cycle instead of driving. Fewer transports, fewer international chains, fewer travel days. 10 Is slow travel perhaps also a counter-reaction to flight shame, environmental anxiety and consumerism?
A. It is wise to make full preparations before setting off.
B. It feels good for both the environment and your wallet.
C. Yet gradually I changed my way of travelling unconsciously.
D. I used to attach great importance to taking beautiful travel photos.
E. For me, slow travel is about getting to know a place a little more thoroughly.
F. I experienced more, felt more and became more focused on the present moment.
G. Every day on site I found a few new places that I wanted to visit and experience.
Passage 3
(2026届湖北黄冈市黄梅县育才高级中学高三考前模拟预测英语试题)I used to wake up and check my phone. Before my feet hit the floor, I was already deep in the day’s chaos: headlines, comments, breaking news alerts. Doomscrolling(刷屏成瘾) had become my morning routine. 11 I started each day tense and anxious. So I gave myself a quiet dare: no phone in the morning, for five straight weekdays.
Naturally, breaking the habit wasn’t easy. The first morning, I reached for my phone automatically. I stopped myself and picked up a book instead. It felt odd, like trying to enjoy coffee without caffeine (咖啡因). But after a few pages, I found myself actually relaxed — not the emptiness of a scroll, but something steadier. 12 That had never happened before.
Encouraged by the quiet start, I explored other ways. The next day I tried a cold shower. I wanted something that would force me fully awake. The shock factor was incredibly effective. 13 On Wednesday, I went for a run. I hated every step at first. But I came back awake, warm and proud. That feeling powered me through the day.
14 On Thursday, I journaled. No audience, just thoughts on paper. It felt honest, if not particularly exciting. On Friday, I reread an old letter and let the memories surface. It was quiet, uneventful and grounding.
By the end of the week, the urge to check my phone had weakened. 15 Those phone-free mornings proved a quieter start was possible: no noise or half-truths. It’s not about perfection, but freedom from the scroll and the misinformation it feeds into our minds.
A. But lately, I noticed the weight it carried.
B. This left my mind surprisingly clear afterward.
C. I even finished a chapter before checking the time.
D. That meant I stopped grabbing my phone on waking.
E. It made me realize how popular phones are nowadays.
F. Some mornings I spent more time reflecting than moving.
G. It revealed the link between my phone use and daily anxiety.
Passage 4
(2026届浙江宁波市镇海中学高三模拟预测11英语试题)
Small Talk: More Than Just Chit-Chat
People often complain about small talk, describing it as “painful” or “dishonest”. 16 However, this common opinion fails to recognize the true value of small talk in our daily interactions.
As a matter of fact, small talk serves as an essential social “safety zone”. 17 According to etiquette expert Lizzie Post, discussing light topics like hobbies or recent events establishes initial harmony. This foundation makes it easier to transition to more substantial conversations later, whether in a work setting or a new friendship.
Some argue that small talk is boring, but this often reflects poor communication skills rather than a flaw in the activity itself. Effective small talk requires genuine engagement. 18 This means putting away your phone, making eye contact, and actively turning into the other person’s reactions. If they lean in and smile at a topic, you can explore it further; if they glance away or give short answers, politely shift to a new topic or invite them to share their own perspective.
19 During a two-hour flight, I began with simple talk about travel plans with my seatmate. Gradually, both of us felt more comfortable opening up to each other. This casual start eventually led to a meaningful discussion about life changes and personal growth. We reached this depth precisely because we started with accessible, low-pressure topics.
Small talk isn’t about being superficial — it’s a practical social tool that facilitates human connection. 20 In fact, it smooths our daily social encounters and opens doors to deeper conversations that might never occur otherwise. Without these simple, everyday exchanges, our social interactions would feel much more awkward and less satisfying.
A. Its value, however, is often overlooked.
B. It demands full presence and careful observation of the other person.
C. They generally claim it lacks depth and avoids meaningful topics.
D. Consider this real-life example from my own experience.
E. Good small talk depends on more than just the words you say.
F. Without proper skills, small talk can feel shallow and forced.
G. It creates a comfortable atmosphere before deep conversations begin.
Passage 5
(2025-2026学年浙江宁波市镇海中学高三上学期模拟预测)Psychologists and researchers have reached an agreement: personal growth is not about avoiding pain, but about continuous struggle and transformation. 21 Many people mistakenly view life as a smooth journey, a belief that gradually weakens their courage and inner strength. Yet the moment we start facing, accepting, and growing from hardships, we rediscover the true strength of the human spirit.
Many people today feel stuck in life, especially when confronting setbacks, failures, or emotional pressure. 22 They escape from challenges, avoid difficulties, and give up easily without self-reflection. Modern psychology shows that genuine maturity only occurs when people connect painful experiences with their own thinking, thereby developing new inner strength. A recent study of more than 15,000 people across different age groups found that those who consistently faced difficulties bravely and grew through pain achieved significantly better long-term mental health. 23
The true source of this inner strength lies in what psychologists call “dark resilience”. It breaks through the limitations of a comfortable life, transforming passive avoidance into active growth. 24 Instead of merely running from pain, wise people constantly ask themselves: “Why did this happen? What can I learn? How can I become stronger?” — transforming struggle into strength. This mindset helps them rebuild their world, discover new rules of life, and cultivate their own unique inner power. In a complex and uncertain world, the ability to grow from pain is far more valuable than the pursuit of simple happiness.
25 Once you take this step, you will not only become more mature, but also shape a strong, brave and resilient mind for life. The future belongs not to those who avoid pain most skillfully, but to those who grow and transform through it bravely.
A. Embrace pain as your teacher, and cultivate your inner dark resilience.
B. They believe that happiness means a life free from any trouble or difficulty.
C. This shows that avoiding pain brings only short-term comfort but long-term weakness.
D. This pattern of growth through struggle reveals the very essence of real inner strength.
E. They feel anxious and depressed, yet fail to recognize that pain is a natural part of growth.
F. This view, however, is often overlooked by those who expect life to be easy and comfortable.
G. It teaches people to see difficulties not as punishments but as opportunities to grow stronger.
Passage 6
(2026届江西三九校联考高三联合质量检测英语试题) When Lila moved to her grandmother’s old neighborhood for the summer, she immediately noticed one thing: a dull, gray wall at the street corner. Having studied studio art for three years, she felt the empty space was wasting its potential. What if it could become something that tied the whole community together? She carried the idea around for a week before taking the first step. 261 At first, she worried that local people would show little interest. She printed simple posters and stuck them around the block, inviting anyone to share their ideas for the wall. 27 To her surprise, replies poured in within three days. Retired teachers wrote about local history, and kids sent in drawings of cats and birds they saw every day.
The painting work started on a sunny Saturday morning. People of all ages showed up with paintbrushes in their hands. Elderly residents sat on folding chairs, telling stories of the neighborhood 50 years ago while younger people turned their memories into pictures. 28 Bright flowers, historic shop fronts and playful animals slowly covered the once-gray surface.
When the mural was finished, the street corner became a totally different place. Passers-by would slow down to look at the pictures, and many stopped to take photos. 29 Strangers who had never spoken before started chatting about the stories behind the painting. The wall, once just a forgotten part of the street, became a shared treasure.
Lila learned a big lesson from the project. Art does not only belong in expensive galleries. It can live on a street corner and touch ordinary people’s daily lives. 30
A. Each person added their own small touch to the work.
B. She won a big prize for the community art project.
C. Neighbors began to connect with each other more.
D. She expected only a few replies at most.
E. The local government paid for all the painting materials.
F. That is the true power of public art in ordinary life.
G. She decided to ask the community for ideas first.

(2026全国一卷)Museums, once quiet places filled with history, are now full of digital excitement. By using machine learning and advanced algorithms(算法), these institutions are creating personalized visitor journeys, protecting delicate collections, and revealing hidden stories. ____36____
AI transforms a standard museum trip into a personalized and interactive adventure. Smart recommendation engines analyze data such as exhibit popularity and visitors’ past behavior to suggest specific exhibits and events, making each visit unique and surprising. ____37____ These digital assistants engage visitors in dynamic conversations and offer context-sensitive insights that deepen understanding and satisfy curiosity.

(2026全国二卷)
Ways to Teach Kids Work Ethic Early
Ever watched your child try to get out of doing housework by making excuses? If only the effort they put into avoiding responsibility could be redirected into, well, actual responsibility. In fact, building work ethic(道德) in kids doesn’t require military-style drills. Here are four simple and practical ways.
●Make housework part of the family routine.
Involve your child in the daily running of the house: tidying toys, feeding the dog, watering the plants. ____36____ When the tasks become as routine as brushing teeth, kids internalise that helping with housework is simply part of life.
●____37____
You can’t expect your child to tackle their tasks with enthusiasm while you’re complaining about loading the dishwasher. If your child sees you enjoying your work and taking pride in a job well done, they’re far more likely to do the same.
●Build determination through goals.
____38____ Sometimes you have to help them find their “thing.” Set small, achievable goals together with them and celebrate progress, not perfection. The trick is to let them struggle a bit — resist the urge to help fix things the moment they experience a setback.
●Treat mistakes as opportunities.
Few things strike fear into a child’s heart like the prospect of failing. The best way is to normalise mistakes as a natural part of learning. When kids mess up, don’t jump in with a rescue mission. ____39____
Teaching kids work ethic is to gently and consistently push them toward responsibility, determination, and pride in their efforts. ____40____ No worry. Those habits you’re building now are setting your child up for a lifetime of resilience(韧性) and satisfaction.
A. The key is consistency.
B. Help kids develop analytical skills.
C. Model the work ethic you want to see.
D. Instead, encourage them to do differently next time.
E. Sometimes, a cleaner living room is the best reward.
F. Progress can be slow, and you’ll wonder if it’s all sinking in.
G. Not every child is born with the willpower of a marathon runner.
【答案】36. A 37. C 38. G 39. D 40. F
【语篇导读】文章介绍了四种从小培养孩子劳动品质的实用方法。
36.根据空前“Involve your child in the daily running of the house: tidying toys, feeding the dog, watering the plants.(让孩子参与家庭日常事务:整理玩具、喂狗、浇花。)”以及空后“When the tasks become as routine as brushing teeth, kids internalise that helping with housework is simply part of life.(当做家务变得像刷牙一样常规化,孩子就会从内心认同做家务是生活的一部分。)”可知,前文给出具体家务内容,后文强调把家务固化成日常习惯,能让孩子形成观念,想要实现这个转变,核心要素就是持之以恒。A选项“The key is consistency.(关键在于持之以恒。)”,句中consistency对应后文routine,点明坚持常态化做家务是养成习惯的核心逻辑。
37.分析文章结构,该空为本段小标题,其余小标题均为简洁祈使句;根据本段后文“You can’t expect your child to tackle their tasks with enthusiasm while you’re complaining about loading the dishwasher. If your child sees you enjoying your work and taking pride in a job well done, they’re far more likely to do the same.(你不能指望孩子满怀热情地处理自己的任务,而你自己却在抱怨把洗碗机里的碗碟摆好。如果你的孩子看到你享受工作、并为自己出色完成的事情感到自豪,他们就更有可能也这样做。)”可知,整段核心是家长自身行为会被孩子模仿,家长要做好榜样。C选项“Model the work ethic you want to see.(树立你希望孩子拥有的劳动榜样。)”概括本段内容,适合做小标题。
38.本段小标题是“Build determination through goals.(借助目标培养意志力。)”;根据空后“Sometimes you have to help them find their “thing.” Set small, achievable goals together with them and celebrate progress, not perfection. The trick is to let them struggle a bit — resist the urge to help fix things the moment they experience a setback.(有时你需要帮孩子找到适合自己的事。和他们一起设定容易达成的小目标,看重进步而非完美。诀窍是让他们适当经历磨砺,不要一遇到挫折就立刻帮忙解决问题。)”可知,后文提出需要借助外力、设定小目标来锻炼意志力,反向说明孩子天生意志力参差不齐,不是所有人天生意志力都很强。G选项“Not every child is born with the willpower of a marathon runner.(并非每个孩子生来都拥有马拉松运动员那般强大的意志力。)”解释了为什么需要靠目标培养毅力,前后因果通顺,且与本段主题一致。
39.根据空前“When kids mess up, don’t jump in with a rescue mission.(孩子搞砸事情时,不要立刻出手包揽补救。)”可知,建议家长孩子出现问题不要立刻出手包揽补救,后文需要给出对应的正向替代方案。D选项“Instead, encourage them to do differently next time.(取而代之,鼓励他们下次换一种方式处理。)”中instead承接前文不插手的做法,给出引导孩子自主修正错误的具体方式,符合语境。
40.根据空后“No worry. Those habits you’re building now are setting your child up for a lifetime of resilience (韧性) and satisfaction.(不必担心。你当下正在培养的这些习惯,会让孩子终身拥有抗挫折能力与成就感。)”可知,No worry是安慰语气,说明空格处必然是家长会产生的顾虑。F选项“Progress can be slow, and you’ll wonder if it’s all sinking in.(进步速度可能很慢,你会疑惑孩子究竟有没有真正听进去、学进去。)”提出家长的焦虑疑惑,后文紧接着进行安抚解释,符合语境。

Passage 1
(2025-2026学年河北衡水中学高三年级小学期期末综合素质评价)Shyness is a feeling of discomfort you may have in social settings, preventing you from reaching personal or social goals. Are you a shy person? Does the thought of having a conversation with a stranger make your stomach turn? 1 Just like any undesirable characteristics, you can tackle shyness with the right tools.
2 Socially anxious individuals frequently have negative thoughts running through their heads. “I look awkward,” “No one is talking to me,” or “I am going to look like a fool,” are all these thoughts. As you can probably tell, these thoughts are all negative and will only serve to keep you feeling shy and self-conscious. You can break the habit of negative thoughts by becoming aware of when you are falling victim to them and by challenging their logic.
Be approachable. Would you approach somebody with a bitter expression on their face or with their head down on their desk? Not likely. Our body language can allow others to make assumptions about us before we even speak. 3 Sit leaning(倾斜) forward in the direction of the person you are talking to, keep your legs and arms open, and maintain a relaxed posture.
Give sincere compliments(赞扬). No need to be over the top. Some of the greatest conversations started with “I like your shirt. Did you get it at that store?” 4 What’s more, you are guaranteed to walk away with a smile because complimenting others makes you feel good too.
Take small steps. Try to make progress in small, easily broken down, and identifiable steps. This gives you something new to learn every time, and you can proudly keep track of progress. Keep doing things like having conversations with new people and seeking out opportunities to connect with others. 5
A. Adjust your mindset.
B. Focus your attention outward.
C. Feelings like these are common and are easy to overcome with practice.
D. Open body language sends a message to others that you are willing to interact.
E. Celebrate small wins, whether it is giving a few compliments or not.
F. They give others a positive impression of you because you made them feel good.
G. Your body language determines how people perceive you and how you perform.
【答案】1. C 2. A 3. D 4. F 5. E
【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了如何克服害羞,包括调整心态、保持开放的身体语言、给予真诚的赞美以及采取小步骤等建议。
1. 根据上文“Are you a shy person? Does the thought of having a conversation with a stranger make your stomach turn? (你是一个害羞的人吗?一想到要和陌生人交谈,你会感到紧张不安吗?)”以及下文“Just like any undesirable characteristics, you can tackle shyness with the right tools. (就像任何不良特征一样,你可以用正确的方法克服害羞。)”可知,上文提出关于害羞的问题,下文强调害羞可以被克服。C选项“Feelings like these are common and are easy to overcome with practice. (像这样的感觉很常见,而且很容易通过练习来克服。)”中的“these”指代上文提到的害羞反应,“easy to overcome”与下文“tackle shyness”呼应,承上启下。故选C项。
2. 根据设空位置及下文“Socially anxious individuals frequently have negative thoughts running through their heads.

Passage 2
(2026届江苏省苏州市高三5月考前学情自测英语试题)In the digital era, many people find it increasingly difficult to stay focused on a single task. We are constantly interrupted by alerts and the urge to check our phones. This phenomenon is often described as “fragmented attention”, where our minds jump from one thing to another without deep engagement. 6
To tackle this, the concept of “Deep Work” has gained popularity. It refers to the ability to focus without interruption on a mentally demanding task. 7 It allows you to master complicated information and produce better results in less time. However, achieving this state requires more than just willpower.
8 Just as athletes train their bodies, you must train your brain to resist distractions(分心). Start by scheduling specific “deep work” sessions in your calendar. During these times, turn off all notifications and move your phone to another room.
Another effective strategy is “mono-tasking”. Many people believe they are good at multitasking, but research shows that our brains aren’t wired for it. 9 When you switch between tasks, “attention residue” occurs, meaning part of your focus remains on the previous task.
Finally, embrace boredom. 10 Instead of reaching for your phone during every free moment, let your mind wander. This strengthens your “focus muscle” and makes it easier to engage in deep work when you actually need to.
A. Such interrupted work patterns leave us mentally exhausted yet unproductive.
B. Constant multitasking actually reshapes the brain in the long term.
C. This focused mental state is a highly valuable skill in today’s workplace.
D. The real secret lies in cutting off all human contact in your spare time.
E. In reality, we are merely shifting our focus rapidly rather than dividing it equally.
F. People nowadays heavily rely on digital devices for entertainment.
G. Training focus is more about environment control than self-discipline.
【答案】6. A 7. C 8. G 9. E 10. F
【语篇导读】主要说明了当下人们普遍注意力碎片化,“深度工作” 可高效钻研难题,文中给出训练专注力、单一任务做事、忍受无聊三种实操方法。
6. 根据上文“In the digital era, many people find it increasingly difficult to stay focused on a single task. We are constantly interrupted by alerts and the urge to check our phones. This phenomenon is often described as “fragmented attention”, where our minds jump from one thing to another without deep engagement.(在数字化时代,许多人发现很难专注于一项任务。我们总是会被各种提醒信息以及想要查看手机的冲动所打断。这种现象通常被称为“分散注意力”,即我们的大脑会从一件事跳到另一件事,但没有深入的投入)”可知,第一段介绍了“碎片化注意力”的现象:注意力不断被打断、无法深度投入。A选项“这种被打断的工作模式会让我们精神疲惫,还效率低下”,用Such interrupted work patterns指代上文的碎片化注意力现象,总结该现象的危害,自然引出下文的解决方法,衔接合理。
7. 根据上文“To tackle this, the concept of “Deep Work” has gained popularity. It refers to the ability to focus without interruption on a mentally demanding task.(为了解决这个问题,“深度工作”这一概念逐渐流行起来。它指的是能够不受干扰地专注于一项需要高度集中精力完成的任务的能力)”可知,第二段定义了“深度工作”:无干扰专注于高脑力任务的能力。C选项“这种专注的精神状态在当今职场是一项非常有价值的技能”,用This focused mental state指代深度工作,紧接着下文阐述深度工作的好处(掌握复杂信息、短时间产出更好结果),逻辑连贯。
8. 根据后文“Just as athletes train their bodies, you must train your brain to resist distractions (分心). Start by scheduling specific “deep work” sessions in your calendar. During these times, turn off all notifications and move your phone to another room.(就像运动员要锻炼自己的身体一样,你也必须训练自己的大脑来抵御分心。首先,在日程表中安排专门的“深度工作”时段。在这段时间里,要关闭所有通知,并把手机放到另一个房间)”可知,第二段结尾提到“达到深度工作状态不止需要意志力”,空格后举例说明训练大脑抗分心的方法:安排专属深度工作时段、关闭通知、把手机放去别的房间,这些都是控制环境的做法。G选项“训练专注力,更多靠环境控制而非自律”,对应上文的“不止需要意志力(自律)”,也能引出下文的具体方法,衔接正确。
9. 根据上文“Another effective strategy is “mono-tasking”. Many people believe they are good at multitasking, but research shows that our brains aren’t wired for it.(另一种行之有效的策略是“单任务处理”。许多人自认为擅长同时处理多项任务,但研究表明,我们的大脑并不适合进行这种操作)”以及后文“When you switch between tasks, “attention residue” occurs, meaning part of your focus remains on the previous task.(当你在不同任务之间切换时,就会出现“注意力残留”现象,即你的注意力仍会停留在之前的任务上)”可知,第四段围绕“单任务工作法”展开,前文提到“很多人以为自己擅长多任务,但研究表明大脑天生不适合多任务”,后文解释切换任务会带来“注意力残留”。E选项“实际上,我们只是快速转移注意力,并非真的能同时平均分配注意力给多个任务”,刚好承接上文对多任务的纠错,引出下文切换任务的危害,逻辑通顺。
10. 根据后文“Instead of reaching for your phone during every free moment, let your mind wander. This strengthens your “focus muscle” and makes it easier to engage in deep work when you actually need to.(不要在每一刻的空闲时间都去拿手机,而是让思绪自由飘荡。这样做能增强你的“专注力肌肉”,从而在真正需要投入深度工作时,更容易集中精力)”以及本段主题是“接受无聊”,后文提到“不要一有空就拿手机,让大脑走神”。F选项“现在人们高度依赖电子设备娱乐”,点出现在人们无聊就摸手机的现状,正好引出作者的建议,衔接合理。
Passage 3
(2026届湖北十堰市郧阳中学高三最后一次模拟考试英语试题)Which is more beneficial to English learning, paper or electronic dictionaries? 11 Instead of taking sides blindly, learners should apply them properly based on different learning stages and practical needs.
Paper dictionaries feature exploratory learning. When turning pages, you will unavoidably encounter new words, phrases and typical sentences. 12 They also help deepen memory, as paper layout and physical use strengthen long-term word recall. Besides, they offer complete collocation and style information without digital distractions.
13 They allow instant word lookup without breaking your reading train of thought. Most are equipped with audio pronunciation, personalized word lists and spaced repetition systems to facilitate efficient vocabulary review. Top-grade ones are even connected to massive language corpora(语料库), revealing how certain words are employed in real-life contexts.
Wise use of dictionaries lies in matching tools with learning tasks. For primary school students, paper dictionaries serve as a good helper to develop basic dictionary-searching skills. 14 Senior high school learners may rely mainly on electronic dictionaries for efficiency, while keeping a paper one at hand to check confusing word usages in depth. College students can combine both, with electronic tools for quick inquiry and paper ones for accurate writing.
Some universal rules should be followed to make the most of dictionaries: try to guess word meanings before looking them up; turn to English explanations rather than Chinese versions; attach greater importance to example sentences than simple definitions. By sticking to these good habits, you can achieve a perfect balance between depth and efficiency. 15 All in all, dictionaries are merely learning tools. The ultimate goal is to cultivate independent thinking and the ability to use words flexibly in diverse contexts.
A. But they have obvious drawbacks as well.
B. Such a heated debate has persisted for years.
C. Electronic dictionaries represent efficient learning.
D. This unintended exposure boosts vocabulary expansion.
E. Daily reading is the ideal occasion for us to consult dictionaries.
F. Also, you’d better review newly learned words at regular intervals.
G. Middle school students can use both fully for respective learning purposes.

12. 根据前文“When turning pages, you will unavoidably encounter new words, phrases and typical sentences.(翻页时,你会不可避免地遇到生词、短语和典型例句。)”讲述翻阅纸质词典会偶然接触各类语言素材;空后一句“They also help deepen memory, as paper layout and physical use strengthen long-term word recall.(它们还有助于加深记忆,纸质排版与翻阅的使用方式能强化单词的长期记忆。)”继续介绍纸质词典的好处;故推知:空格承接前文偶然遇见生词这一现象,说明该现象对扩充词汇的积极作用;选项D“This unintended exposure boosts vocabulary expansion.(这种无意的语言接触有助于扩充词汇量。)”逻辑通顺。
13. 根据后文“They allow instant word lookup without breaking your reading train of thought. Most are equipped with audio pronunciation, personalized word lists and spaced repetition systems to facilitate efficient vocabulary review.(它们可以快速查词,不会打断阅读思路,大多配备标准发音、个性化单词本和间隔重复记忆系统,助力高效复习单词。)”整段围绕电子词典便捷、高效的特点展开;空格为本段段首句,需要总领全段核心;选项C“Electronic dictionaries represent efficient learning.(电子词典代表高效学习。)”精准概括本段内容。
14. 根据前文“For primary school students, paper dictionaries serve as a good helper to develop basic dictionary-searching skills.(对于小学生来说,纸质词典是培养基础查词能力的好工具。)”介绍小学生的词典使用方案;空后一句“Senior high school learners may rely mainly on electronic dictionaries for efficiency, while keeping a paper one at hand to check confusing word usages in depth.(高中生可以主要依靠电子词典提升效率,同时常备纸质词典深入辨析易混淆词汇用法。)”介绍高中生的使用方式;故推知:空格处补充处于小学、高中中间阶段的中学生的词典使用方案;选项G“Middle school students can use both fully for respective learning purposes.(中学生可充分结合两种词典,满足各自不同的学习需求。)”衔接前后学段内容。
15. 根据前文“Some universal rules should be followed to make the most of dictionaries: try to guess word meanings before looking them up; turn to English explanations rather than Chinese versions; attach greater importance to example sentences than simple definitions.(想要充分利用词典,需要遵守几条通用准则:查词前先猜测词义;优先看英文释义而非中文释义;重视例句而非简单释义。)”列举了三条使用词典的通用规则;空格承接前文,补充另一条实用学习规则;选项F“Also, you’d better review newly learned words at regular intervals.(此外,你最好定期复习新学的单词。)”贴合本段介绍学习准则的语境。

(2026届甘肃省武威市凉州区联考高三模拟预测英语试题)
Tips for Reading Effectively
Reading is a lifelong skill that everyone needs in study and daily life, but many people never learn to read efficiently. They often spend plenty of time on reading yet gain little useful information. 21 Here are several practical and easy methods to help you improve your reading skills.
Preview before reading. Spending one or two minutes previewing the article before reading is a good habit. 22 Look at headings, subheadings, pictures, charts and the first sentence of each paragraph. This simple operation helps you get a general idea of the whole passage and know what the text is mainly about.
Adjust your reading speed flexibly. There is no need to read every single word slowly. Slow down for difficult and key parts that need deep understanding; skim quickly for trivial details and main ideas. 23
Take notes while reading. It is helpful to write down key points, core information or your own questions during reading. 24 It can help you focus your attention and sort out the text logic clearly.
Review regularly after reading. Go over what you’ve read within 24 hours to deepen your memory and understand the content better. 25 Only reading with clear purposes can bring you real progress.
A. It’s a waste of time to read without a purpose.
B. Many students read word by word, which is slow.
C. Previewing takes only a few minutes but saves time later.
D. Good readers know when to speed up or slow down.
E. You can also underline important information and key sentences.
F. Reading is one of the best ways to gain knowledge.
G. Without effective strategies, reading can be slow and tiring.
【答案】21. G 22. C 23. D 24. E 25. A
【语篇导读】文章主要介绍四种高效阅读的实用方法与相关建议。
21. 上文“They often spend plenty of time on reading yet gain little useful information. (他们经常花费大量时间阅读,却只获得很少的有用信息。)”说明许多人阅读效率低下的现状。下文“Here are several practical and easy methods to help you improve your reading skills. (以下是几个实用且简单的方法来帮助你提高阅读技能。)”引出具体的改进建议。空处应承上启下,指出缺乏有效策略导致的问题。G选项“Without effective strategies, reading can be slow and tiring. (没有有效的策略,阅读可能会变得缓慢且令人疲惫。)”中的“slow and tiring”与上文形成因果关系,且自然引出下文的解决方法。
22. 上文“Spending one or two minutes previewing the article before reading is a good habit. (阅读前花一两分钟预览文章是一个好习惯。)”提出了预览的做法。下文“Look at headings, subheadings, pictures, charts and the first sentence of each paragraph. (看标题、副标题、图片、图表和每个段落的第一句话。)”具体说明了预览的内容。空处应承接预览这一话题,说明其作用或优势。C选项“Previewing takes only a few minutes but saves time later. (预览只需几分钟,但以后能节省时间。)”中的“takes only a few minutes”与上文的“one or two minutes”呼应,“saves time later”与下文预览的具体操作形成逻辑衔接。
23. 上文“Slow down for difficult and key parts that need deep understanding; skim quickly for trivial details and main ideas. (对需要深入理解的难点和关键部分放慢速度;对琐碎细节和主要观点快速浏览。)”说明了根据不同内容调整阅读速度的方法。空处应总结或概括这一阅读技巧。D选项“Good readers know when to speed up or slow down. (好的读者知道何时加速或减速。)”中的“speed up or slow down”与上文的具体描述完全对应,是对该阅读策略的精炼概括。
24. 上文“It is helpful to write down key points, core information or your own questions during reading. (阅读时写下关键点、核心信息或自己的问题是有帮助的。)”提出了做笔记的具体内容。下文“It can help you focus your attention and sort out the text logic clearly. (它可以帮助你集中注意力,清晰地梳理文本逻辑。)”说明了做笔记的作用。空处应补充做笔记的另一种常见方式。E选项“You can also underline important information and key sentences. (你也可以在重要信息和关键句子下面划线。)”中的“also”与上文形成并列关系,“underline”是另一种笔记标注方式,与下文“It”指代一致。
25. 上文“Go over what you’ve read within 24 hours to deepen your memory and understand the content better. (在24小时内复习读过的内容,以加深记忆并更好地理解内容。)”提出了复习的建议。下文“Only reading with clear purposes can bring you real progress. (只有带着明确目的的阅读才能带来真正的进步。)”强调了阅读要有目的性。空处应引出或强调阅读目的的重要性。A选项“It’s a waste of time to read without a purpose. (没有目的的阅读是浪费时间。)”中的“without a purpose”与下文的“with clear purposes”形成正反对比,且“waste of time”与上文复习建议形成逻辑递进。
考点二 介绍说明(说明文)
Passage 1
(2026届江苏省南通市海安高级中学5月高三年级阶段性学情测试英语试题)In everyday communication, we exchange not only logical information but also emotions, attitudes and inner states. Since human beings are emotional creatures, our decisions, whether significant or trivial, are often driven more by emotions than by pure reason. Therefore, to express strong emotions clearly, we tend to use words like very, so and truly in daily language. 1
Verbal intensifiers(强化词) are special function words that enhance the meaning, especially the emotional meaning of the words they are attached to. 2 According to Buzarov (1998), intensification is a stable and vital feature of informal language. Words such as awfully, deeply, tremendously, and truly help speakers strengthen emotional impact and influence listeners’ psychological perception.
3 In English, we often say “I am deeply grateful” or “He is dead tired.” Other languages also have similar words: очень in Russian, sehr in German, très in French. Some new intensifiers are even created by combining words, like fantabulous from fantastic and fabulous.
To make the most of intensifiers, we should use them with a clear purpose. Do not use them mindlessly. 4 Connect them with your genuine attitude and focus on conveying precise emotions. This way, appropriate use of intensifiers will make our words more powerful and sincere.
Intensifiers, like any other linguistic tool, work best in the right context. 5 However, overusing them without necessity will only weaken their expressive effect and make our words sound empty. Mastering them wisely helps us become more proficient and persuasive communicators.
A. Proper use is a smart linguistic choice.
B. These function words have great expressive value.
C. You’d better use them to express real ideas and emotions.
D. Using intensifiers at will influences emotional expression.
E. Intensifiers are used to simplify the meaning of other words.
F. This is why verbal intensifiers have emerged in languages worldwide.
G. They are commonly employed across languages and take on diverse forms.
【答案】1. F 2. B 3. G 4. C 5. A
【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍语言中强化词的定义、特点、在不同语言中的应用及合理使用强化词的建议。
1. 根据上文“In everyday communication, we exchange not only logical information but also emotions, attitudes and inner states. Since human beings are emotional creatures, our decisions, whether significant or trivial, are often driven more by emotions than by pure reason. Therefore, to express strong emotions clearly, we tend to use words like very, so and truly in daily language.(在日常交流中,我们不仅交换逻辑信息,还交换情感、态度和内心状态。由于人类是情感动物,我们的决定,无论重大还是琐碎,往往更多地由情感驱动,而不是纯粹的理性。因此,为了清晰地表达强烈的情感,我们在日常语言中倾向于使用very、so和truly等词)”可知,此处应衔接上文“为表达强烈情感使用相关词汇”,引出强化词的出现,F选项“This is why verbal intensifiers have emerged in languages worldwide.(这就是为什么世界各地的语言中会出现口头强化词的原因)”中的This指代上文“为表达强烈情感使用相关词汇”这一现象,引出下文对强化词的介绍,符合语境。故选F项。
2. 根据上文“Verbal intensifiers (强化词) are special function words that enhance the meaning, especially the emotional meaning of the words they are attached to.(口头强化词是一种特殊的功能词,它们能增强所附着词汇的意义,尤其是情感意义)”以及下文“According to Buzarov (1998), intensification is a stable and vital feature of informal language. Words such as awfully, deeply, tremendously, and truly help speakers strengthen emotional impact and influence listeners’ psychological perception.(根据Buzarov(1998)的观点,强化是非正式语言的一个稳定且重要的特征。awfully、deeply、tremendously和truly等词帮助说话者增强情感影响力,并影响听众的心理感知)”可知,此处应体现强化词的价值,B选项“These function words have great expressive value.(这些功能词具有很强的表达价值)”中的These function words指代上文的Verbal intensifiers,expressive value与下文strengthen emotional impact and influence listeners’ psychological perception相呼应,符合语境。故选B项。
3. 根据下文“In English, we often say “I am deeply grateful” or “He is dead tired.” Other languages also have similar words: очень in Russian, sehr in German, très in French. Some new intensifiers are even created by combining words, like fantabulous from fantastic and fabulous.(在英语中,我们经常说“我非常感激”或“他极度疲惫”。其他语言也有类似的词:俄语中的очень,德语中的sehr,法语中的très。一些新的强化词甚至是通过组合单词创造出来的,比如fantastic和fabulous组合成的fantabulous)”可知,此处应总述强化词在不同语言中的使用及形式,G选项“They are commonly employed across languages and take on diverse forms.(它们在不同语言中被广泛使用,并呈现出多种形式)”中的They指代强化词,across languages与下文不同语言的例子相呼应,diverse forms与下文“组合创造新强化词”相呼应,符合语境。故选G项。
4. 根据上文“To make the most of intensifiers, we should use them with a clear purpose. Do not use them mindlessly.(为了充分利用强化词,我们应该有明确的目的使用它们。不要盲目地使用它们。)”以及下文“Connect them with your genuine attitude and focus on conveying precise emotions.(将它们与你真诚的态度结合起来,专注于传达准确的情感)”可知,此处应体现使用强化词的正确方式,C选项“You’d better use them to express real ideas and emotions.(你最好用它们来表达真实的想法和情感)”中的real ideas and emotions与下文genuine attitude、precise emotions相呼应,承接上文“不要盲目使用”,给出具体建议,符合语境。故选C项。
5. 根据上文“Intensifiers, like any other linguistic tool, work best in the right context.(强化词和其他语言工具一样,在合适的语境中效果最好)”以及下文“However, overusing them without necessity will only weaken their expressive effect and make our words sound empty.(然而,不必要地过度使用它们只会削弱它们的表达效果,使我们的话语听起来空洞)”可知,此处应体现合理使用强化词的重要性,A选项“Proper use is a smart linguistic choice.(合理使用是一种明智的语言选择)”承接上文“合适语境效果最好”,与下文“过度使用的弊端”形成对比,符合语境。故选A项。
Passage 2
(2026届湖北省黄冈市黄冈中学高三英语标准考试题)We all experience moments like this: a friend doesn’t reply to your message, or someone walks right past you without noticing. Most people move on quickly, but for those who are sensitive to rejection, these small moments feel heavy. 6 .
Rejection sensitivity means often expecting others to reject you, even when there is no real sign of it. People who think this way pay too much attention to others’ words, tone, or silence. A late reply can feel like “They don’t like me,” and a serious face may seem like “They’re upset with me.” Because of this fear, they try to protect themselves by avoiding eye contact, keeping quiet, or pulling away. 7 — sometimes creating the very rejection they were afraid of. The good news is that gentle, intentional habits can help.
Challenge your first reaction. Feelings are not facts. When your mind jumps to the worst explanation, pause and ask: What else could this mean? 8 . Try writing down at least two neutral(中性的) possibilities before accepting the negative one. This simple practice helps calm emotional overreaction.
Express your needs openly. People with rejection sensitivity often hide their feelings, hoping others will understand without being told. 9 . Try speaking clearly and kindly: “When I didn’t hear back, I felt a bit unsure. Could we talk later?” Honest communication builds trust and reduces unnecessary worry.
10 . If someone reaches out to you, offer a small sign of openness — a smile, a short reply, or a simple “thank you.” These small gestures show that you welcome connection. Over time, they help soften the habit of pulling away.
A. Pursue stronger bonds with others
B. But silence easily causes confusion
C. Respond warmly when others show care
D. They are always searching for ways to relieve their anxiety
E. Sadly, this distance can make them seem cold or unfriendly
F. They may immediately assume something is wrong with them
G. Perhaps the other person is busy, stressed, or simply distracted
【答案】6. F 7. E 8. G 9. B 10. C
【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了拒绝敏感的表现、影响及改善的三个实用习惯。
6. 上文“We all experience moments like this: a friend doesn’t reply to your message, or someone walks right past you without noticing. Most people move on quickly, but for those who are sensitive to rejection, these small moments feel heavy.(我们每个人都会遇到这样的时刻:朋友不回复你的消息,或者有人径直走过你身旁却毫无察觉。大多数人很快就会忘掉这些事,但对于那些对被拒绝特别敏感的人来说,这些微小的时刻却会让人感到沉重)”指出拒绝敏感者会因小事感到难受。空处承接前文,说明这类人的具体心理反应。选项F“They may immediately assume something is wrong with them(他们可能会立刻认为是自己出了问题)”具体解释了拒绝敏感者面对小事时的负面自我归因,与前文形成顺承关系,符合语境。故选F。
7. 上文“Because of this fear, they try to protect themselves by avoiding eye contact, keeping quiet, or pulling away.(由于这种恐惧,他们试图通过避免眼神交流、保持沉默或疏远来保护自己)”说明拒绝敏感者会刻意与人保持距离。空后“sometimes creating the very rejection they were afraid of.(有时反而造成了他们所害怕的拒绝)”指出这种行为带来的负面结果。空处需衔接这种疏远行为与后果。选项E“Sadly, this distance can make them seem cold or unfriendly(可悲的是,这种距离会让他们看起来冷漠或不友好)”中的“this distance”指代前文的疏远行为,点明其带来的负面印象,与后文结果相呼应,符合语境。故选E。
8. 上文“When your mind jumps to the worst explanation, pause and ask: What else could this mean?(当你的脑海中冒出最坏的解释时,停下来问问自己:这还可能意味着什么?)”提出要质疑负面第一反应,寻找其他可能性。空处应举例说明其他中性的可能性。选项G“Perhaps the other person is busy, stressed, or simply distracted(也许对方只是忙碌、有压力或只是分心了)”具体列举了中性的合理原因,是对前文问题的直接回答,与后文“neutral possibilities”相呼应,符合语境。故选G。
9. 上文“People with rejection sensitivity often hide their feelings, hoping others will understand without being told.(有拒绝敏感的人常常隐藏自己的感受,希望别人不用被告知就能理解)”说明这类人习惯沉默隐藏情绪。空处应指出这种沉默的问题。选项B“But silence easily causes confusion(但沉默容易造成困惑)”通过转折指出隐藏感受、保持沉默的弊端,与后文坦诚沟通的建议形成对比,符合语境。故选B。
10. 空后“If someone reaches out to you, offer a small sign of openness — a smile, a short reply, or a simple “thank you.”(如果有人向你主动示好,给出一点友好的表示 —— 一个微笑、一句简短的回复或一句简单的“谢谢”)”介绍了对他人的主动示好做出积极回应的做法。空处需总领本段内容。选项C“Respond warmly when others show care(当他人表达关心时热情回应)”概括了本段核心建议,与后文具体的回应行为相呼应,符合语境。故选C。
Passage 3
(2026届湖南长沙市知源中学高三全真模拟适应性考试)In the digital age, academic research leans heavily on online resources, yet sifting through the vast data to find credible, relevant info can be tough. Here are some balanced guides.
Define your research question clearly. A focused, specific question — say, narrowing “technology and education” to “mobile apps and high school math scores” — keeps you from wandering into irrelevance. ____11____ This clarity saves time on materials that don’t serve your thesis.
Pick the right tools. General engines like Google work for basics, but academic databases (Google Scholar, JSTOR) are better for scholarly work. ____12____ Unlike general sites, which mix in blogs and non-academic content, these databases prioritize peer-reviewed, expert-vetted papers — critical for building strong arguments.
Use precise keywords. Broad terms flood results; break your question into specific concepts. ____13____ For “social media’s impact on teens’ mental health,” combine “social media,” “mental health,” and “adolescents” with “AND” to narrow things down.
Evaluate sources carefully. Check authors’ expertise (are they field experts?) and publication dates — ____14____ In fast-moving fields like tech or medicine, older sources might miss recent findings. Also, follow citations(引用) in sources to find related studies.
Take organized notes as you gather info. ____15____ Jot down key points and source details (authors, dates, titles) to make referencing easier later. Tools like Goodnotes help keep notes neat.
Cross-verify critical info across sources. A key fact or argument needs support from several reputable works to strengthen your paper’s validity (有效性) and show thorough research.
A. Using same-meaning or related terms can also expand your search results.
B. Avoid relying on one source for important information.
C. Take time to understand the boundary of your research before diving in.
D. They are designed to separate out non-academic content and prioritize quality.
E. Make sure to record not just the information but also the source details.
F. Narrowing down your focus early on will save you a lot of time later.
G. Older sources may not reflect the latest developments in your field.
【答案】11. C 12. D 13. A 14. G 15. E

Broad terms flood results; break your question into specific concepts.(使用精确的关键词。宽泛的术语会使结果泛滥;把你的问题分解成具体的概念)”建议使用精确的关键词进行搜索,A选项“Using same-meaning or related terms can also expand your search results.(使用同义词或相关术语也可以扩大搜索结果)”承接上文,则进一步说明除了使用精确关键词外,还可以使用同义词或相关术语来扩大搜索结果,与上文在内容上是递进关系。故选A项。
14.上文“Evaluate sources carefully. Check authors’ expertise (are they field experts?) and publication dates (仔细评估来源。查看作者的专业知识(他们是该领域的专家吗?)和出版日期)”建议仔细评估来源,查看作者的专业知识和出版日期,G选项“Older sources may not reflect the latest developments in your field.(较旧的来源可能无法反映你所在领域的最新发展)”承接上文,说明了较旧的来源可能存在的问题,即不能反映最新发展,与上文提到的检查出版日期相呼应,都是在强调评估来源时要注意的方面。故选G项。
15.上文“Take organized notes as you gather info.(在收集信息时做好有条理的笔记)”建议做好有条理的笔记,E选项“Make sure to record not just the information but also the source details.(确保不仅要记录信息,还要记录来源细节)”承接上文,进一步说明做笔记时要记录信息的来源细节,这也是有条理做笔记的一部分,与上文意思一致。故选E项。

【语篇导读】主要说明了景德镇不再仅售卖瓷器,还推出亲手制瓷体验。自制瓷器饱含独特情感,游客能学习传统工艺,这类体验助力当地文旅发展,传承陶瓷文化。
16.根据上文“In Jingdezhen, known as China’s capital of porcelain, a quiet change is taking place. The city now offers visitors more than just finished porcelain products. (在被誉为“中国瓷器之都”的景德镇,正在发生着悄然的变化。如今,这座城市为游客提供的已不再仅仅是成品瓷器,还包含更多的内容。)”可知,第一段点明景德镇现在给游客提供的不只有成品瓷器,后文紧接着开始介绍游客亲自制瓷的完整流程。B选项“它邀请游客创作属于自己的瓷器”承接上文,引出下文的手作体验,符合逻辑。
17.根据上文“The experience follows a clear process guided by skilled artisans. Visitors first roll the clay to remove the air inside and make it soft. Then, at a turntable, they shape the material with their hands and cups, bowls or small vases slowly take form. (这一工艺流程由技艺精湛的工匠严格遵循既定规范进行操作。游客首先将黏土滚动,以排出内部空气并使其变软。接着,在转盘上,他们用手和杯子、碗或小花瓶来塑形材料,这些器物便逐渐成形。)”以及后文“After shaping, they add colors or words to the work, which is then fired in a kiln (瓷窑). Days later, it is mailed to their home, bringing a pleasant surprise. (经过塑形后,他们会为作品添加颜色或文字,然后将其放入窑中烧制。几天后,作品会被寄回他们的家中,带来一份愉快的惊喜。)”第二段介绍制瓷步骤,前文讲完揉泥、手动塑形,提到“杯子、碗慢慢成型”,后文讲塑形完成后的上色、烧制步骤。A选项“这个过程需要耐心和专注”承接前文“慢慢成型”的特点,自然衔接流程。
18.根据上文“This kind of experience differs greatly from buying a finished product. A store product may be perfect. It offers little emotional connection, though. (这种体验与购买成品有很大的不同。商店里的商品或许很完美,但它们缺乏情感上的联结。)”以及后文“Every small imperfection — an uneven edge or a fingerprint — tells a story. The waiting time adds meaning. When the package finally arrives, opening it feels like meeting an old friend. Pride and joy come from the whole-hearted dedication. (每一个微小的瑕疵——不平整的边缘或是指纹——都讲述着一个故事。等待的过程赋予了它意义。当包裹最终送达时,打开它就像是与一位老友重逢一般。这份喜悦和自豪源自全心全意的付出。)”可知,第三段对比成品瓷器和自制瓷器,前文说商店成品虽然完美,但几乎没有情感联结,后文提到自制瓷器的每一处小瑕疵都有故事。F选项“但自制作品充满了独有的回忆。”转折引出对自制瓷器价值的描述,衔接顺畅 。
19.根据后文“During the process, local artisans share knowledge of traditional techniques. Ancient skills become real and touchable. Visitors learn about the seventy-two steps of porcelain making, gaining a deep insight into this time-honored Chinese craft. (在这个过程中,当地的工匠们分享了传统工艺的知识。古老的技艺变得鲜活且可触摸。游客们了解了瓷器制作的七十二道工序,从而对这一历史悠久的中国工艺有了深刻的了解。)”可知,第四段讲手作体验的文化价值,后文提到当地工匠分享传统技艺,游客深入了解中国古老制瓷工艺。G选项“这种体验帮助建立和文化根源的鲜活联结。”统领全段,符合段落主旨。
20.根据上文“Today, pottery workshops have grown into a popular highlight of Jingdezhen’s cultural tourism.

(2026届浙江宁波市镇海中学高三下学期模拟预测英语试题)
Chasing colors
When you grow too familiar with the city you live in, it’s easy to overlook the scenery during your daily walks. But what if your next footstep came with a small twist — following a specific color as your guide?
This idea, known as a “color walk”, has recently gained popularity on social media both in China and abroad. ____21____
As the trend spreads, many netizens have begun sharing photos online, while some cities have released color-walk guides for residents.
____22____ In Shenzhen, Guangdong province, for example, those searching for pink might find bougainvillea in Shenzhen International Garden and Flower Expo Park, or trumpet-shaped flowers along parks and roads. ____23____
But beyond the colors themselves, this simple activity may also lead to unexpected discoveries. ____24____ “After a whole day of color walking, the world felt brand new,” one netizen wrote on Sina Weibo. “Places I used to overlook suddenly seemed worth noticing — a yellow bicycle under a tree, or a yellow taxi parked behind a house.”
____25____ Sometimes, all it takes is a single color to turn an ordinary walk into a small act of rediscovery.
A. Participants choose a single color and challenge themselves to spot objects, buildings, and scenery in that hue along the way.
B. In Yichang, Hubei province, nearly 40,000 square meters of rapeseed blossoms form a bright yellow sea beneath the blue sky.
C. Many find that this focused observation brings back a sense of freshness to familiar routes.
D. This practice turns an ordinary walk into a more engaging and mindful experience.

Passage 1
(2026年江苏徐州市5月考前模拟预测高三年级试题英语试卷)
My Quiet Green Escape in the City
I had driven past a local park in Melbourne many times without stopping. Then one morning in 2022, I was stuck in heavy traffic and saw soft mist rising from the trees in the early sunlight. The peaceful view instantly lifted my mood and eased my stress about the busy day ahead. At that moment, I decided to pause and visit the park at least once a week during my commute. 1 .
The very next day, I left the busy road, parked my car and walked into the quiet green space. I passed a large sports field where dogs run around and small birds fly low over the grass. Further inside, there is a calm pond home to ducks and slow-moving turtles. 2 . It creates a quiet natural corner hidden from the noisy city.
When I reach my favourite quiet spot deep in the park, all traffic noise and work worries completely disappear. I stand under a tall old eucalyptus tree surrounded by young small trees. 3 . I have visited so many times, and I have found every season brings different natural smells to this special place.
I once flew over green countryside in a hot-air balloon and heard bees buzzing around flowering treetops. 4 — with sweet honey smells from falling eucalyptus flowers and fresh sharp citrus scents from young plants. In summer, strong natural oil from the trees fills the air, a gentle reminder of local bushfire risks. Autumn brings fresh earthy mushroom smells, and winter rain falling through leaves smells soft and sweet.
5 . I saw small beautiful gardens even beside busy railways when I travelled abroad. No one can fully explain why green nature calms our minds, but it is the true colour of life and growth. Grey concrete city areas cannot nourish our hearts. I truly advise everyone to find a small wild green place nearby, change your daily route a little, and spend a few quiet minutes breathing peacefully in nature.
A. In spring, my park feels just the same
B. I have kept this promise to myself ever since
C. Natural green spaces comfort people everywhere
D. The beautiful ponds and lands deeply touched me
E. The park view eases tiredness emotion from work
F. Around it, wild plants grow freely with no human disturbance
G. I close my eyes, take slow deep breaths and always feel calm and relaxed
【答案】1. B 2. F 3. G 4. A 5. C
【语篇导读】作者偶遇墨尔本城市公园心生好感,此后常入园休憩。园内景致清幽四季气味各异,自然绿意舒缓身心,作者也倡议大家找寻身边绿地,亲近自然抚慰内心。
1. 根据上文“At that moment, I decided to pause and visit the park at least once a week during my commute.(就在那一刻,我决定在通勤途中每周至少去那个公园逛一次)”可知,第一段结尾作者做出承诺“每周通勤至少去一次公园”,B选项“从那之后我一直遵守对自己的这个承诺”直接承接上文的决定,引出下文第二天就付诸行动的内容。
2. 根据上文“The very next day, I left the busy road, parked my car and walked into the quiet green space. I passed a large sports field where dogs run around and small birds fly low over the grass. Further inside, there is a calm pond home to ducks and slow-moving turtles.(第二天一早,我离开了繁忙的街道,把车停好,走进了那片宁静的绿地。我路过一个大型运动场,那里有狗狗在奔跑,小鸟在草地上低空飞舞。再往里走,有一个平静的池塘,里面养着鸭子和行动缓慢的乌龟)”可知,第二段前文提到公园深处有一个安静的池塘,空后说“It creates a quiet natural corner hidden from the noisy city.(它营造出一个远离喧嚣城市、宁静自然的角落)”,F选项“池塘周边野生植物自由生长,无人打扰”中,it指代前文的pond,后半句的it指代“无人打扰的植被环境”,逻辑通顺。
3. 根据上文“When I reach my favourite quiet spot deep in the park, all traffic noise and work worries completely disappear. I stand under a tall old eucalyptus tree surrounded by young small trees.(当我来到公园深处我最喜欢的那个安静角落时,所有的交通噪音和工作烦恼都完全消失了。我站在一棵高大的老桉树下,周围是些矮小的幼树)”以及后文“I have visited so many times, and I have found every season brings different natural smells to this special place.(我曾多次来到这里,发现每个季节都会给这个特别的地方带来不同的自然气息)”可知,前文说作者站在最喜欢的安静角落的桉树下,空后提到“每个季节都有不同的自然气味”,G选项“我闭上眼睛慢慢深呼吸,总能感到平静放松”中,“深呼吸”正好衔接下文“闻气味”的描述,符合语境。
4. 根据上文“I once flew over green countryside in a hot-air balloon and heard bees buzzing around flowering treetops.(我曾乘坐热气球在绿色的乡村上空飞过,还听到蜜蜂在盛开的树梢间嗡嗡作响)”以及后文“with sweet honey smells from falling eucalyptus flowers and fresh sharp citrus scents from young plants. In summer, strong natural oil from the trees fills the air, a gentle reminder of local bushfire risks. Autumn brings fresh earthy mushroom smells, and winter rain falling through leaves smells soft and sweet.(空气中弥漫着从掉落的桉树花中散发出来的甜蜜的蜂蜜香气,还有来自幼小植物的清新而锐利的柑橘香气。在夏季,树木中散发出的浓郁天然油脂充满空气,这柔和地提醒着人们当地的森林火灾风险。秋天带来了新鲜的泥土蘑菇的气味,而冬季雨水透过树叶落下时则散发着柔和而甜美的气息)”可知,第四段前文作者回忆在乡村看到开花树梢蜜蜂环绕的场景,空后按季节顺序依次描述了春、夏、秋、冬的气味,A选项“春天,我的公园也和这场景一样”引出春天的气味描述,符合季节展开的逻辑。
5. 根据后文“I saw small beautiful gardens even beside busy railways when I travelled abroad. No one can fully explain why green nature calms our minds, but it is the true colour of life and growth. Grey concrete city areas cannot nourish our hearts. I truly advise everyone to find a small wild green place nearby, change your daily route a little, and spend a few quiet minutes breathing peacefully in nature.(当我出国旅行时,我曾看到即使在繁忙的铁路旁也有小巧美丽的花园。没有人能确切解释为何绿色的自然环境能让我们的心灵平静下来,但这就是生命与成长的真实色彩。灰暗的混凝土城市区域无法滋养我们的心灵。我真心建议大家在附近找一个小小的野生绿地,稍微改变一下日常路线,花几分钟在大自然中安静地呼吸)”可知,最后一段提到“哪怕国外繁忙铁路旁都有小绿地,绿地能抚慰人心,建议大家找身边的绿地”,C选项“自然绿地在任何地方都能抚慰人”正好统领全段内容,契合段落主题。
Passage 2
(2026年浙江宁波市镇海中学 5月高三高考模拟英语试题)I have always loved to travel and experience new things and for many years my travels were one big checklist with flights from city to city, “must-do lists” and pins on Google maps. 6 Maybe it started after the pandemic, when we were all forced to learn to appreciate the little things in everyday life. Or maybe I have always had some slow travel tendencies in me.
7 Not rushing with a pre-determined plan, but taking the time to get to know the area. Having time to wander casually along towards the little handwritten sign and not just visiting popular scenic spots. What I discovered when I started to slow down, was that I SAW more. I found small family vineyards that no guidebook or influencer would ever discover. I had time to talk to the people I met, and I took the time to sit down at a small cafe that no one would ever recommend. 8
One thing I have also discovered, as a result of my slower travel, is that I very rarely book my trips far in advance these days. A good example is this summer’s road trip, where the route and final destination in France were decided two days before departure. There was no must-do list to check off, there were no map pins that needed to be visited. 9 What we managed to do, we managed to do. What we didn’t manage to do, we’ll do next time. It’s always possible to go back to a destination that you don’t feel finished with — one of the reasons why I’ve visited Australia six times and will probably never feel finished with that country.
Another aspect that is important for the future of travel is sustainability. Staying longer in one place lowers carbon emissions, helps boost local economy and lets you enjoy authentic local life. You also have more time to walk and cycle instead of driving. Fewer transports, fewer international chains, fewer travel days. 10 Is slow travel perhaps also a counter-reaction to flight shame, environmental anxiety and consumerism?
A. It is wise to make full preparations before setting off.
B. It feels good for both the environment and your wallet.
C. Yet gradually I changed my way of travelling unconsciously.
D. I used to attach great importance to taking beautiful travel photos.
E. For me, slow travel is about getting to know a place a little more thoroughly.
F. I experienced more, felt more and became more focused on the present moment.
G. Every day on site I found a few new places that I wanted to visit and experience.
【答案】6. C 7. E 8. F 9. G 10. B
【语篇导读】作者讲述了自己旅行方式的转变,从以往按清单匆忙旅行转变为如今的慢旅行,并阐述了慢旅行的特点、带来的体验以及对环境和当地经济的益处。
6. 前文“I have always loved to travel and experience new things and for many years my travels were one big checklist with flights from city to city, “must-do lists” and pins on Google maps.(我向来热爱旅行、体验新鲜事物。多年来,我的旅行就像一份密密麻麻的打卡清单:搭乘航班辗转各个城市,照着必游清单逐一打卡,在谷歌地图上标记到访地点)”作者讲述自己过去是打卡式快旅行;后文 “Maybe it started after the pandemic, when we were all forced to learn to appreciate the little things in everyday life. Or maybe I have always had some slow travel tendencies in me.(也许这种改变始于疫情之后,那时我们都被迫学会欣赏日常生活中的小事。或者也许我内心一直都有一些慢旅行的倾向)”作者指出自己开始欣赏小事、本身有慢旅行倾向;由此可知,此空起到承上启下的作用,引出作者旅行方式的转变。C选项 “Yet gradually I changed my way of travelling unconsciously.(然而,我不知不觉地逐渐改变了我的旅行方式)”符合语境。
7. 下文“Not rushing with a pre-determined plan, but taking the time to get to know the area. Having time to wander casually along towards the little handwritten sign and not just visiting popular scenic spots.(不按照预先确定的计划匆忙行事,而是花时间去了解这个地区。有时间悠闲地朝着那些手写的小指示牌漫步,而不只是参观热门景点)”具体解释慢旅行不赶行程、深度探访的特点;E选项“For me, slow travel is about getting to know a place a little more thoroughly.(对我来说,慢旅行就是更深入地了解一个地方)”作者阐述自己对慢旅行的定义,引出下文慢旅行的内涵。
8. 前文“I found small family vineyards that no guidebook or influencer would ever discover. I had time to talk to the people I met, and I took the time to sit down at a small cafe that no one would ever recommend.(我发现了一些家庭小葡萄园,这些地方任何旅行指南或网红都不会发现。我有时间和遇到的人交谈,还花时间坐在一家没人会推荐的小咖啡馆里)”作者列举了慢旅行中的一些活动;选项F“I experienced more, felt more and became more focused on the present moment.(我体验得更多,感受得更多,也更加专注于当下)”承接上文,总结了作者在慢旅行中的收获,符合语境。
9. 根据前文“A good example is this summer’s road trip, where the route and final destination in France were decided two days before departure. There was no must - do list to check off, there were no map pins that needed to be visited.(一个很好的例子是今年夏天的公路旅行,去法国的路线和最终目的地在出发前两天才决定。没有要勾选的必做事项清单,也没有需要去打卡的地图标记)”可知,作者现在不提前太久规划行程、没有强制打卡清单;G选项“Every day on site I found a few new places that I wanted to visit and experience.(在当地的每一天,我都会发现一些我想去参观和体验的新地方)”承接上文“不提前规划”的特点,进一步说明这种没有固定计划的旅行方式带来的新鲜感,引出下文“What we managed to do, we managed to do.

Passage 3
(2026届湖北黄冈市黄梅县育才高级中学高三考前模拟预测英语试题)I used to wake up and check my phone. Before my feet hit the floor, I was already deep in the day’s chaos: headlines, comments, breaking news alerts. Doomscrolling(刷屏成瘾) had become my morning routine. 11 I started each day tense and anxious. So I gave myself a quiet dare: no phone in the morning, for five straight weekdays.
Naturally, breaking the habit wasn’t easy. The first morning, I reached for my phone automatically. I stopped myself and picked up a book instead. It felt odd, like trying to enjoy coffee without caffeine (咖啡因). But after a few pages, I found myself actually relaxed — not the emptiness of a scroll, but something steadier. 12 That had never happened before.
Encouraged by the quiet start, I explored other ways. The next day I tried a cold shower. I wanted something that would force me fully awake. The shock factor was incredibly effective. 13 On Wednesday, I went for a run. I hated every step at first. But I came back awake, warm and proud. That feeling powered me through the day.
14 On Thursday, I journaled. No audience, just thoughts on paper. It felt honest, if not particularly exciting. On Friday, I reread an old letter and let the memories surface. It was quiet, uneventful and grounding.
By the end of the week, the urge to check my phone had weakened. 15 Those phone-free mornings proved a quieter start was possible: no noise or half-truths. It’s not about perfection, but freedom from the scroll and the misinformation it feeds into our minds.
A. But lately, I noticed the weight it carried.
B. This left my mind surprisingly clear afterward.
C. I even finished a chapter before checking the time.
D. That meant I stopped grabbing my phone on waking.
E. It made me realize how popular phones are nowadays.
F. Some mornings I spent more time reflecting than moving.
G. It revealed the link between my phone use and daily anxiety.

15. 根据前文“By the end of the week, the urge to check my phone had weakened.(一周结束时,想要查看手机的欲望已经变淡。)”以及后文“Those phone-free mornings proved a quieter start was possible.(这些远离手机的清晨证明我们可以拥有宁静的晨起时光。)”可知,空前说明想要查看手机的欲望变淡,空后说明远离手机带来宁静的时光,空处应承接欲望减弱带来的改变;选项D“That meant I stopped grabbing my phone on waking.(这也就意味着我醒来后不再下意识去拿手机。)”衔接通顺。
Passage 4
(2026届浙江宁波市镇海中学高三模拟预测11英语试题)
Small Talk: More Than Just Chit-Chat
People often complain about small talk, describing it as “painful” or “dishonest”. 16 However, this common opinion fails to recognize the true value of small talk in our daily interactions.
As a matter of fact, small talk serves as an essential social “safety zone”. 17 According to etiquette expert Lizzie Post, discussing light topics like hobbies or recent events establishes initial harmony. This foundation makes it easier to transition to more substantial conversations later, whether in a work setting or a new friendship.
Some argue that small talk is boring, but this often reflects poor communication skills rather than a flaw in the activity itself. Effective small talk requires genuine engagement. 18 This means putting away your phone, making eye contact, and actively turning into the other person’s reactions. If they lean in and smile at a topic, you can explore it further; if they glance away or give short answers, politely shift to a new topic or invite them to share their own perspective.
19 During a two-hour flight, I began with simple talk about travel plans with my seatmate. Gradually, both of us felt more comfortable opening up to each other. This casual start eventually led to a meaningful discussion about life changes and personal growth. We reached this depth precisely because we started with accessible, low-pressure topics.
Small talk isn’t about being superficial — it’s a practical social tool that facilitates human connection. 20 In fact, it smooths our daily social encounters and opens doors to deeper conversations that might never occur otherwise. Without these simple, everyday exchanges, our social interactions would feel much more awkward and less satisfying.
A. Its value, however, is often overlooked.
B. It demands full presence and careful observation of the other person.
C. They generally claim it lacks depth and avoids meaningful topics.
D. Consider this real-life example from my own experience.
E. Good small talk depends on more than just the words you say.
F. Without proper skills, small talk can feel shallow and forced.
G. It creates a comfortable atmosphere before deep conversations begin.
【答案】16. C 17. G 18. B 19. D 20. A

Passage 5
(2025-2026学年浙江宁波市镇海中学高三上学期模拟预测)Psychologists and researchers have reached an agreement: personal growth is not about avoiding pain, but about continuous struggle and transformation. 21 Many people mistakenly view life as a smooth journey, a belief that gradually weakens their courage and inner strength. Yet the moment we start facing, accepting, and growing from hardships, we rediscover the true strength of the human spirit.
Many people today feel stuck in life, especially when confronting setbacks, failures, or emotional pressure. 22 They escape from challenges, avoid difficulties, and give up easily without self-reflection. Modern psychology shows that genuine maturity only occurs when people connect painful experiences with their own thinking, thereby developing new inner strength. A recent study of more than 15,000 people across different age groups found that those who consistently faced difficulties bravely and grew through pain achieved significantly better long-term mental health. 23
The true source of this inner strength lies in what psychologists call “dark resilience”. It breaks through the limitations of a comfortable life, transforming passive avoidance into active growth. 24 Instead of merely running from pain, wise people constantly ask themselves: “Why did this happen? What can I learn? How can I become stronger?” — transforming struggle into strength. This mindset helps them rebuild their world, discover new rules of life, and cultivate their own unique inner power. In a complex and uncertain world, the ability to grow from pain is far more valuable than the pursuit of simple happiness.
25 Once you take this step, you will not only become more mature, but also shape a strong, brave and resilient mind for life. The future belongs not to those who avoid pain most skillfully, but to those who grow and transform through it bravely.
A. Embrace pain as your teacher, and cultivate your inner dark resilience.
B. They believe that happiness means a life free from any trouble or difficulty.
C. This shows that avoiding pain brings only short-term comfort but long-term weakness.
D. This pattern of growth through struggle reveals the very essence of real inner strength.
E. They feel anxious and depressed, yet fail to recognize that pain is a natural part of growth.
F. This view, however, is often overlooked by those who expect life to be easy and comfortable.
G. It teaches people to see difficulties not as punishments but as opportunities to grow stronger.
【答案】21. F 22. E 23. D 24. G 25. A

Passage 6
(2026届江西三九校联考高三联合质量检测英语试题) When Lila moved to her grandmother’s old neighborhood for the summer, she immediately noticed one thing: a dull, gray wall at the street corner. Having studied studio art for three years, she felt the empty space was wasting its potential. What if it could become something that tied the whole community together? She carried the idea around for a week before taking the first step. 261 At first, she worried that local people would show little interest. She printed simple posters and stuck them around the block, inviting anyone to share their ideas for the wall. 27 To her surprise, replies poured in within three days. Retired teachers wrote about local history, and kids sent in drawings of cats and birds they saw every day.
The painting work started on a sunny Saturday morning. People of all ages showed up with paintbrushes in their hands. Elderly residents sat on folding chairs, telling stories of the neighborhood 50 years ago while younger people turned their memories into pictures. 28 Bright flowers, historic shop fronts and playful animals slowly covered the once-gray surface.
When the mural was finished, the street corner became a totally different place. Passers-by would slow down to look at the pictures, and many stopped to take photos. 29 Strangers who had never spoken before started chatting about the stories behind the painting. The wall, once just a forgotten part of the street, became a shared treasure.
Lila learned a big lesson from the project. Art does not only belong in expensive galleries. It can live on a street corner and touch ordinary people’s daily lives. 30
A. Each person added their own small touch to the work.
B. She won a big prize for the community art project.
C. Neighbors began to connect with each other more.
D. She expected only a few replies at most.
E. The local government paid for all the painting materials.
F. That is the true power of public art in ordinary life.
G. She decided to ask the community for ideas first.
