例1 (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.
例2 (2025年1月•浙江卷)
One of the most common mistakes in communication is trying to do too much. 36 There’s no value in delivering any kind of communication, whether written, spoken, formal, or informal, if the message doesn’t come across clearly. Being clear and brief — while maintaining interest and including everything your listeners need to know — is a high-level communication skill.
Here are some tips worth following in order to communicate more effectively.
Keep your audience in mind.
Your audience will naturally be more interested and engaged when you tailor your communications to their interests. 37 This will engage their desire to understand and interact with the information.
Don’t use ten words when one will do.
Even the most engaged and committed audience will eventually get bored. Keeping your message simple and clear will make it easier for people to understand. 38 However, they’re hearing it for the first time. Keep it simple.
39
If you’ve ever worked as an instructor, manager, trainer or coach, you’ll know that there are few better ways to learn new information than to teach it. Ask the audience to contribute their ideas or to take a role in explaining new concepts and policies to others. Allow them to lead discussions and meetings to develop their communication skills.
Consider the best method to deliver your message.
If the information you’re communicating isn’t urgent, consider sending an email. Written communication will give your audience more time to review it, think it over, and follow up with questions. 40
Building effective communication skills takes time, but the effects are worth the effort.
A.Be patient.
B.Get the audience involved.
C.The best messages are often simple.
D.Speak directly to what matters to them.
E.You may be surprised by what your listeners offer.
F.It will also give them a handy record to refer back to.
G.As the speaker, you already know what you’re going to say.

知识点 解题指导
首先应当采取形似原则,观察与其他段落首句是否出现相同结构,一般考查祈使句的相同结构居多。其次应当研读上一段的内容,尤其是上一段结尾的内容,结合本段内容,看选项是否符合逻辑上的紧密衔接。
段首题具有鲜明的语言特征,要么是段落标题句(主旨句),要么就是段落主题句。
1.段落小标题:概括段落大意,特征突出,短小且语言精炼
2.段落主题句:段落主旨概括性,与其它段落承上启下
设空在段首——思考是“段落主题句”还是“承上启下句”
1.把握形似,确定段落标题句
2.根据一致,确定段落主题句
3.瞻前顾后,确定段落过渡句

Not all great writers are great spellers. If you want to be published, it’s vital to submit a perfect, professionally presented manuscript (原稿). 36That means good grammar and no spelling mistakes. No editor is likely to tolerate a writer who does not take the trouble to spell words correctly.
I keep two reference books close-by on my desk: dictionary and thesaurus (同义词词典). I don’t trust my laptop’s spellchecker. 37It takes no account of the context. …
38 It should give you a precise definition of each word, thus differentiating it from other words whose meanings are similar, but not identical. It will also usually show how the word is pronounced.
In addition, I have an old two-volume copy of the Shorter Oxford Dictionary, picked up a few years ago in a bookshop sale for just 99 pence. …

考点三 考查段中句
知●识●解●构
知识点 设空处在段中,是文中起到承上启下作用的句子。
具体解题步骤如下:
第一步:寻找下句中是否出现人称代词或指示代词,该词与选项存在指代关系。
第二步:瞻前顾后,关注段落小标题。同时重点关注上下句之间的逻辑关系是否存在如例证、解释、递增、转折等关系,寻找表示逻辑关系的衔接词或过渡词。同时,寻找与上句之间是否出现相同或相似的句式结构。
第二步:将选项代入设空处,看与上句和下句之间是否符合逻辑。
如何应对段中句的考查
段中设空题通常考查过渡句和细节句。段中句若位于主题句后,很可能是说明原因、举例证明、分述细化主题、解释前面句中的某个概念等;位于段落中间可能起衔接作用。要重点阅读空前一句和空后一句,找出它们之间的逻辑关系,或者根据意义的连贯性得出答案。解题时要特别注意体现时间、原因、方式、转折等逻辑关系的语篇标志词(关联词)。
段中设空题:
①细节句:设空位于段中,首先阅读选项并画出关键词;然后重点阅读设空处的前一句和后一句,画出关键词,找出它们之间的逻辑关系或根据意义的连贯性得出答案;阅读各个选项,标记关键词;比较匹配关键词,确定答案;利用词汇复现找到答案;利用表并列、转折、递进和因果的关系的关联词找到答案。
②过渡句:阅读空处前后内容,挖掘内在的逻辑关系;阅读各个选项,标记表示转折、并列、递进或因果关系的关联词;注意词汇复现:同源词、同义词、近义词或反义词复现,不同时态形式的动词等。
段中设空考查逻辑关系
段中设空主要考查上下文的逻辑关系。有时会出现下列衔接词汇或短语结构: first, second, then, next, later, soon, so, but, however, additionally, what’s more, that is, namely, in other words, for one thing. . . for another等, 这些词汇和短语结构在文章中起到提示逻辑关系的作用,是解题时需要重点关注的部分。考生应对常用的逻辑关系了然于心,并在阅读时能有效地找出关键信息。常考逻辑关系如下,
①总分关系:指选项是中心句;
②并列关系:指选项与前句或后句在结构或内容上一致;
③递进关系:指后句对前句进行补充说明或语义上的延伸;
④转折关系;指选项与前句或后句语义相反或相对,后句往往是对前句的修正,表达作者的真正意图;
⑤例证关系:指后句是前句的具体实例。
⑥概括阐释:指前句对后句或后句对前句进行归纳概括,若前句归纳,后句即是对前句的具体阐释,使得概念更加清晰易懂;若后句概括,即后句是对前句所阐释的内容进行意义整合;
⑦因果关系:指选项与前后句构成因果关系。

D. But a dictionary can be a pleasure to read.
E. Of course, a dictionary is not only for spelling.
F. That means good grammar and no spelling mistakes.
G. Dictionaries don't always give you enough information.
考点四 考查段尾句
知●识●解●构
知识点 段尾句通常具有,应当注意选项中是否出现表示结果、结论、总结等的信息词。有时,段尾句和段首句呈现出首尾呼应的现象,也是检查选项的一个重要参考。
如何应对段尾句考查
1.细节句:①与上文是转折或对比关系;②与上文是并列或递进关系。
2.总结句:用于总结本段内容,常含有总结性的词语,如therefore、 as a result、 thus、 to sum up、 to conclude、 in a word等。
3.段落过渡句:此空处的答案能够将上段和下段的内容连贯起来。
段尾设空的题多为总结本段内容,偶有起承上启下的作用。即要么是结论句,要么就是承上启下句。
题型和考查角度:
①结论句:用于总结本段内容,常含有总结性的词语。
②承上启下句:此空处的答案能够将上段和下段的内容连贯起来。
③细节句:空前一句或两句是重点语句,应该重点阅读;锁定空前重点语句中的高频词汇和体现逻辑关系的关联词;寻找选项中是否有表逻辑关系的关联词;寻找选项中是否有与上文相同或相似的句式结构。
④过渡句:瞻前顾后找线索;阅读上一段的结尾,结合下一段的开头,留意衔接词和关键词;注意所选答案是否衔接上下段内容;阅读空前段落内容,抓住主旨,总结空前的内容,并利用词汇复现等技巧选出正确答案。

考点三 做7选5阅读常用的技巧
知●识●解●构
知识点 1.利用词汇关系解题
词汇复现法是为了保证文章前后衔接而经常使用的一种写作手段,即在文章中对同一个概念进行重复描述,从而使得同样的意思在文章中不同位置反复出现。在做题时考生要注意选项中出现的与正文意思相同、相近或相反的词汇。
词汇复现:原词复现、同义词或近义词复现、反义词复现、同源词复现。
识别词汇复现的方法:1.着重阅读空前、空后两句,锁定关键词,在选项中查找关键词。2.正确选项中的关键词一般重复前一句中的关键词,且与下一句的关键词呼应。
知识点2.利用一致关系解题
一致性原则包括:①句式一致:如果文章有小标题,其句式往往统一,多为祈使句或名词短语。通过观察前后段落的小标题句式,可以确定设空处的正确选项。若无小标题,可依据前后段的句首句式,利用句式一致原则进行判断。同样,段中句也可通过上下句式结构的一致性来判断正确答案。
②指代一致:句子中的代词与上下文的名词之间存在一致的指代关系。通过仔细分析空白处前后的名词,可以明确这种指代关系,从而确定正确选项。
③问答一致:在解答7选5题目时,如果选项或文章中出现了疑问句,我们可以通过下文的答语来确定上文的问句内容,反之亦然。
④主从句一致:在考查含状语从句的复合句时,如果空在前,则空白后部分以小写字母开头。找到备选项中不能独立成句的选项,再根据主从句一致原则确定正确答案。
知识点3.利用逻辑关系解题
一篇文章往往是一个有机的整体,各部分之间存在着一定的联系。从逻辑意义上来看,句子与句子之间常常有并列、顺承、递进、转折、总分、解释、因果等关系,有时甚至包含多种这样的关系。因此,理解阅读材料时一定要把握文章脉络,弄清其中的逻辑关系。如果文中或选项中出现了逻辑关系词,考生就可以利用逻辑关系词来进行推断;如果文中或选项中未出现逻辑关系词,这就需要考生全面理解文章大意,根据上下文语境弄清文章内在的逻辑关系,做出正确的判断。
句际逻辑关系
一组意义相关的句子,按照一定的逻辑关系排列起来,就能在语篇中表达一个层次的意思。这种逻辑关系有时是显性的,即运用明显的过渡词语来表达出来;有时是隐性的,即不使用任何过渡词语,仅凭句子的排列顺序来表达。语篇中的句际关系主要有以下诸类。
1) 平列关系
平列关系指句子之间在语义上处于平等并立的地位,互不相属。如果改变句子的排列顺序,并不影响整个语段的意义。例如:
All the people on our block give us trouble. Mrs. Brown calls the police whenever we go to play ball on the street. Mrs. Johnson complains that skateboarding makes too much noise. If we happen to stray into Mr. Hardy's yard, he yells at us.
上面这个语段中,后面三句是平列关系,共同说明“社区所有人都给我们带来麻烦”这一主题。
2)时序关系
时序关系指各个句子只能按事物发展的时间先后顺序排列,不可随意改动次序,常用于描述事件过程或者操作流程。例如:
We had a hard time getting Peter out of the hole he had fallen into. First, we made a rope by linking our belts together. Then we lowered it to Peter, telling him to grasp the end. After he had hold of the rope, we began to pull him slowly out of the hole. As he came up, no one dared to speak a word. Finally, we could grasp him arms, and with a sigh of relief, we pulled him out onto the grassy bank.
上面这个语段中,后五句话是时序关系,共同说明“我们好不容易才把Peter拉出掉进的坑”这一过程。描述中,分别用了first,then,after,as,finally这些描述顺序的关联过渡词语,使得文章脉络清晰。
3) 层递关系
层递关系指句子间按照语义的轻重、认知的深浅作由轻到重、由浅入深、由主到次的顺序排列。例如:
I seem to be suffering from all the illnesses imaginable: insomnia (失眠), headache, backache, indigestion (消化不良), constipation (便秘) and pains in the stomach. To make things still worse (更糟糕的是), I've caught a cold, I've got a sore throat, and I'm constantly sneezing and coughing. To crown it all (最糟糕的是), I had an accident the other day, hurt my right shoulder, leg and knee, and nearly broke my neck. If I take a long walk, I get short of breath. In fact, I feel more dead than alive.
上面语段中,作者用层层递进的方式描述了自己的不幸遭遇,感到生不如死。to make things worse 和 to crown it all,清楚地表现了这种层递关系。
4)转折关系
转折关系指句子间意义表达发生转折,常用于进行对比、对照。例如:
Cloning takes the DNA from a single cell to create a whole new individual. A clone is an organism which is genetically identical to another one. But it's now certain that no clone is an exact copy because of differences in experiences and upbringing.(克隆技术通过提取单个细胞的DNA来创造出一个完整的新个体。克隆体在基因上与另一个有机体是相同的。然而,现在可以确定的是,由于经历和成长环境的不同,没有哪个克隆体是一丝不差的复制品。)又例如:
It's tempting to see the life of a journalist as glamorous and exciting, but as with any other occupation, there is a lot of hard work and routine activity. It also depends on what kind of publication you work for. However, each day is different and you will cover a wide range of news stories and features.
5)总分关系
总分关系指前面的句子涉及两个或多个对象,后面的句子紧接着分别他们加以说明。这种组织方式使语段前后呼应,彼此配合,意义表达条理分明。例如:
Friends come in many flavors. There are best friends, school friends, fair-weather friends (顺境朋友), forever friends and many more. Best friends are friends with whom you spend a lot of time and with whom you share all your thoughts and feelings. School friends are different: you see each other in school and you study and have fun together, but you may not know everything about each other. Fair-weather friends are friends who only like you when you are happy or when you are popular. If you are feeling down, or if you are having a problem, fair-weather friends don't want to spend time or talk with you. Forever friends are friends that will always listen to you and try to help you, even if you disagree or if you are having a problem.
这一语段首先提出“朋友有许多种”,然后分别对best friends,school friends,fair-weather friends 和 forever friends 进行解释和说明。
6) 解释关系
解释关系指后面的句子对前面的句子进行阐释、引申、例证,从而使意义表达更加明了、具体、生动,更有说服力。例如:
Do you know that the average person puts only 25% of his energy and ability into his work? That means those who use 50% of their ability really stand out from the rest. And the very few who actually give their full 100% of strength and smarts to their work become the most successful. Many people want the greener grass, but they don't want to pay the higher water bill to get it!
普通人在工作或学习中只投入了25%的精力和能力。根据这一论断,作者进行了引申和阐释:投入50%就会出类拔萃,投入100%就会最成功。最后告诫普通人:草坪要比别家更加翠绿,就要比别人承担更多水费。
7) 因果关系
因果关系指句子之间在逻辑上存在因果联系。在排列方式上,既可以采用前因后果,也可以采用前果后因。例如:
Advertisers discovered years ago that all of us love to get something out of nothing. An advertisement which begins with the magic word FREE can rarely go wrong. These days, advertisers not only offer free samples, but free cars, free houses, and free trips around the world as well.
8)比拟关系
比拟关系指把深奥抽象的事物比喻为浅显易懂、具体生动的事物。从而达到深入浅出、通俗易懂、形象生动的表达效果。例如:
The surface of the earth is like the skin of an orange, which cannot be spread out flat unless it is torn into strips. That is why flat maps of the whole earth always distort its appearance.
此段把较为抽象的地球表面比拟成人们熟悉的橘子皮,形象地说明了为什么平面地图难以展示地球的真正地貌。

A garden that’s just right for you
Have you ever visited a garden that seemed just right for you, where the atmosphere of the garden appeared to total more than the sum(总和) of its parts? 16 . But it doesn’t happen by accident. It starts with looking inside yourself and understanding who you are with respect to the natural world and how you approach the gardening process.

1. (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.
A.This capability allows for timely restoration.
B.Visitor data collection also raises privacy issues.
C.In short, AI is redefining the museum in all respects.
D.It tailors learning experiences to different age groups and learning styles.
E.Museums are not only places to store artworks, but also spaces for learning.
F.Furthermore, AI-powered virtual guides are replacing traditional tour guides.
G.AI is changing this by using image recognition technology to analyze exhibits.

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.
3. (2026年1月·浙江卷)
During your initial reading of material, do you ever go back and reread sentences or paragraphs? Is it because the material is too difficult to comprehend on the first reading or because you are asleep? 16 You are napping (打盹) or daydreaming. Halfway down the page you realize that you have no idea what you have read. 17 Thus, you go back and reread, not because you did not understand, but because you were not paying attention. This type of rereading is called regression.
Napping and daydreaming are habits caused by lack of involvement with the material. Be demanding on yourself and expect 100 percent attention to the task. Engage your mind. Visualize the incoming ideas, and relate the new material to what you already know. 18 If your mind is truly occupied with the text, you will not be able to think about Friday night or where to go on Saturday.
Regression is a crutch (拐杖) that allows you to make up for wasted time. First of all, become aware of when and why you are regressing. 19 Say, “OK. I missed that paragraph because I was thinking of something else, but I’m going to keep on going and start paying close attention.”
20 Good readers who monitor their own comprehension use it in the reading process. However, regressing because your mind was asleep is a waste of time.
A.Both are to blame.
B.Probably the latter is true.
C.Don’t just read the words; think the ideas.
D.Spend a few minutes reading the material aloud.
E.Your eyes were engaged, but your mind was not.
F.Then, start denying yourself the right in order to break the habit.
G.Rereading because you did not understand is a reasonable fix-up strategy.

Most of us have experienced both how good it can feel and how hard it can be to do the right thing. Helping strangers can leave you with a deep sense of satisfaction, but you’ve likely also felt the stress of showing up for others when you’re already stretched thin. These ordinary moments speak to a philosophical puzzle: Are moral people happier? 35 Others might reason that moral behavior often requires self-sacrifice.
36 Past studies clearly show that people feel good when they perform acts of kindness for others. But researchers had not directly examined if moral character, broadly speaking, is linked to well-being. So my team conducted a set of studies to take this challenge seriously.
In one of our studies, undergraduate students reported on their own well-being, rating their happiness as well as their sense of how meaningful their life is. 37 Then these close others, such as friends and family members, rated the participant’s moral character using our questionnaire (调查问卷), which asked how much that person had the various characteristics identified as most morally relevant. 38
Doing the right thing isn’t always easy. 39 But our findings indicate that, in general, there’s no trade-off between morality and well-being. Instead, people with stronger moral character tend to experience greater meaning in life and happiness. This suggests that moments of moral effort may be part of a life that, taken as a whole, feels more satisfying.
A.Until recently, scientific evidence had been limited to one aspect of morality: kindness.
B.Despite various debates, there’s no agreement on what it means to be morally good.
C.Standing up for someone who is being treated unfairly can feel uncomfortable.
D.Some might assume morality and happiness naturally go together.
E.They also gave us contact information for people who know them.
F.We found that those rated as more moral reported a stronger sense of well-being.
G.This might be in part because of the difficulties of defining and measuring kindness.
5. (2025·北京卷)What is adulthood? Societies all over the world view the concept of an adult as self-supporting and self-directed, because it identifies a point in the life cycle.
As Alice Black points out, today’s parents’ fear of letting kids do more housework has added to their inability to feel competent and, thus, confident in themselves. Psychologist Robert Turner wrote about this in his book, The Life Cycle, mentioning a stage when kids learn self-direction and mastery. 35
But Turner’s other cycles are just as important. 36 If these life cycles are delayed, interrupted, or denied, you feel incapable of accessing your states of self, controlling unpleasant feelings, and manipulating (操控) the energy that puts together the fabric of your inner world.
Turner wisely said that “doing well” psychologically is being able to roll with the flow of emotions, manage them, communicate clearly and well with others, and master various skills. This requires an internal locus (核心) of control, which implies self-control of your thoughts, feelings, and actions. 37 You’re self-directed and not reliant on the world to tell you who you are. And you know who you are within all this.
So, being an adult isn’t just holding a job. Being an adult is about having a rooted sense of self while being capable of identifying and managing your emotions and actions. 38 We are a social species, so this is important.
While raising an adult is a parent’s job, it’s also our responsibility as a society to ensure that we support schools that nurture (培养) emotional and identity development. 39
A.It’s also our job to support adults who need help repairing incomplete life cycles.
B.They talk about someone’s inability to support themselves through work.
C.It’s being able to show understanding when communicating with others.
D.In other words, you’re playing the game of life — life isn’t playing you.
E.They teach emotional awareness and management as well as identity.
F.You feel like an 18-year old, especially when playing 80s music.
G.When this stage is denied it creates a sense of insecurity.

Hoping to find a hobby that can be shared by both the little ones and adults? ___16___ You may know the “feel-good” emotions that come with helping others, but there are even more unexpected ways volunteering will positively affect the whole family.
●You’ll feel like you have more time.
People often feel they are too busy to volunteer. Yet, research has found that giving your time to community causes actually makes you feel like you have more of it. ___17___
●You can live longer if you volunteer regularly.
___18___ Washington University found that adults 55 and older who volunteered had better memory and maintained overall health longer than others their age. Volunteers are also more likely to look after their own health and are more focused on adding physical activity into their lives.

7.【2024新课标Ⅰ卷】Not all great writers are great spellers. If you want to be published, it's vital to submit a perfect, professionally presented manuscript (原稿). ____36____ No editor is likely to tolerate a writer who does not take the trouble to spell words correctly.
I keep two reference books close-by on my desk: dictionary and thesaurus (同义词词典). I don't trust my laptop's spellchecker. ____37____ Of course, these days there are plenty of online dictionaries and thesauruses, but I'm old-fashioned enough to prefer a hard cover and pages I can leaf through with my fingers. I use the Concise Oxford Dictionary and the Collins Thesaurus.
____38____ It should give you a precise definition of each word, thus differentiating it from other words whose meanings are similar, but not identical. It will also usually show how the word is pronounced.
In addition, I have an old two-volume copy of the Shorter Oxford Dictionary, picked up a few years ago in a bookshop sale for just 99 pence. Of course, with its 2,672 pages, it's not exactly short. It contains around 163,000 words, plus word combinations and idiomatic phrases. ____39____ However, if I need to check the origin of a word or to look up examples of its usage, there's nothing better.
For well over a hundred years the most influential English dictionary was Samuel Johnson's Dictionary of the English Language published in 1755. "To make dictionaries is dull (乏味) work," wrote Johnson, illustrating one definition of "dull". ____40____ A few minutes spent casting your eye over a page or two can be a rewarding experience.
A. I don't often use this dictionary.
B. It takes no account of the context.
C. But I still don't want to replace them.
D. But a dictionary can be a pleasure to read.
E. Of course, a dictionary is not only for spelling.
F. That means good grammar and no spelling mistakes.
G. Dictionaries don't always give you enough information.
8.【2024新课标ⅠⅠ卷】Overtourism Is For Real: How Can You Help?
Travel promotes understanding, expands our minds, makes us better people, and boosts local economies and communities, but the rapid growth of travel has led to overtourism in certain regions and destinations. ___16___ Certainly not. The loss of what travel offers would be unacceptable in today’s world. Here are some tips on making wise decisions to minimize pressure on the places we visit and improve our experience.
●Choose mindfully. Overvisited destinations are that way for a reason: they’re special. With so many online posts featuring the same places, it’s easy to feel like you’re missing out. Go somewhere only when the landscape, culture or food deeply draws you. ___17___
●Get creative. The best way to ease pressure on over-touristed destinations is to go somewhere else. Though overtourism is described as a problem affecting the entire world, it’s actually concentrated to a small number of extremely popular spots. That means you have tons of less-visited options to choose from. ___18___ Why not try a regional alternative or check out a popular destination’s lesser-known sights?
● ___19___ Minimize impact and maximize experience by skipping major holidays or rush hour. You’ll compete with fewer tourists, save money, experience a different side of a popular place, and boost the economy when tourism is traditionally slower.
Visiting a place that others call home is a privilege(荣幸). Do your part to preserve what makes a destination special in the first place. ___20___ You may be amazed how much closer you’ll feel to the people there.
A. Visit during off-peak times.
B. So, should we stop traveling?
C. Travel for you and no one else.
D. Can overtourism be avoided then?
E. You can still find relatively undiscovered places.
F. You’ll find yourself virtually alone, or close to it.
G. Consider giving back to the communities you’re visiting.
9.【2024全国甲卷】What is moderation (适度)? Basically, it means eating only as much food as your body needs. You should feel satisfied at the end of a meal, but not too full. ____16____ But it doesn't mean saying goodbye to the foods you love.
Take your time. It's important to slow down and think about food as something nutritious rather than just something to eat in between meetings. ____17____ It actually takes a few minutes for your brain to tell your body that it has had enough food, so eat slowly and stop eating before you feel full.
Eat with others whenever possible. Eating alone, “specially in front of the TV or computer, often leads to mindless overeating. And be careful about the foods you keep at hand. It's more challenging to eat in moderation if you have unhealthy snacks at the ready, like cookies. ____18____
Control emotional (情绪的) eating. ____19____ Many of us also turn to food to deal with unpleasant emotions such as sadness, loneliness, or boredom. But by learning healthier ways to manage emotions, you can regain control over the food you eat and your feelings.
____20____ A healthy breakfast can start your metabolism (新陈代谢), while eating small, healthy meals keeps your energy up all day. Avoid eating late at night. Try to eat dinner earlier and fast for 14 — 16 hours until breakfast the next morning. Studies suggest that eating only when you're most active and giving your digestive system a long break each day may help to regulate weight.
A. Eat properly throughout the day.
B. We don't always eat just to satisfy hunger.
C. Don't swallow a meal on the way to work.
D. Most of us need to double the amount we eat.
E. Instead, surround yourself with healthy choices.
F. For many of us, moderation means eating less than we do now.
G. That won't lead to cheating or giving up on your new eating plan.
10.【2024北京卷】If you want to develop maximum credibility (可信性), is it better to be a hedgehog (刺猬) or a fox? According to Isaiah Berlin, the hedgehog knows one thing very well, and the fox knows a lot of things.
Is there a clear advantage of one style over the other? Hedgehog thinkers tend to answer yes. ___35___ And they are usually very credible in doing so. According to Jim Hart, the “hedgehog concept” is one of the factors that lead companies to greatness. They focus on one thing and do it really well. They figure out what they are good at. ___36___ The hedgehog concept makes perfect sense for companies.
___37___ Philip Tate has studied the track records of those folks on the Sunday talk shows who make predictions about what will happen. He has found that hedgehogs are not only wrong more often than foxes, but that they are less likely to recognise or admit that they are wrong when events do not match their predictions.
The advantage that. foxes have is that they are more likely to seek out new information from a broader range of sources, and are comfortable with uncertainty and new information. ___38___ They try to include it in their viewpoint rather than to exclude it from their thinking. They also have a clearer estimation of what they know and don’t know.
So, which is better? The question can be answered in a foxy hedgehog style. ___39___ The choice between being a hedgehog or a fox is a false trade-off. The most effective way to go through life is to try to be that rare mixture known as foxy hedgehog.
A. In other words, there are clear advantages for each.
B. They are more likely to remember people’s mistakes.
C. Hence, they have the advantage of clarity and confidence.
D. But there can be a downside to concentration on one big thing.
E. However, hedgehogs remain open to others’ reactions and inputs.
F. When something is contradictory to their view, they don’t treat it as exceptional.
G. They come down squarely on one side or the other and fully support their position.
11.【2024浙江1月卷】In the past few years, online learning has become a significant part of the university and college experience. ___16___ But are all online courses created equal? How can you be sure that digital learning is right for you? ___17___
We interviewed students and professors to get their advice about online courses, The most obvious advantage of online learning is that you can study anywhere and anytime. ___18___ “I think a point that many people lose sight of is how easy it can be to fall behind schedule,” says graduate student Amanda Bindman. Before choosing to study online, consider whether you’re a self-motivated learner and if the material seems interesting enough to keep you going.
The tip that comes up most often is simple: build online courses into your weekly schedule, just like what you would do with in person courses. ___19___ He noted that his online students usually end up with lower grades. It is so easy to let an online course slide, but your grades will suffer as a result. Be sure to schedule set times to watch your lectures, read materials and contribute to online discussion boards.
___20___ A social connection is often a big part of learning. There are things you can do to ease this problem. Jessica Pink, an undergraduate student, suggests taking online courses with a friend, so you can motivate each other to stay on track. You can also find students on the class discussion board to organize a study group, or schedule in-person meeting s with your professor to discuss course concepts.
A. But that doesn’t mean there aren’t deadlines.
B. Your motivation should be your main concern.
C. Do you know that online courses are also part of your education?
D. Professor Alex Davidson teaches the same course in person and online.
E. The chief complain t about online courses is that they lack human interaction.

What’s more, indoor plants are easy to look after and are not very expensive.

Why are indoor plants good for you?
Will Spoelstra, who works at the Royal Botanic Gardens, says, “____18____. I find during the winter months, plants around the house can really lift your mood.” Several studies have backed this up and found that indoor plants can improve creativity, focus and memory. There is also research showing that pot plants can clean the air around them by removing harmful gases, such as carbon dioxide.

Which plants can you grow?
Aloe vera, peace lilies and spider plants are some of the species that are easy to grow indoors. You can buy plants from supermarkets, garden centres or online.

15.【2023年全国甲卷】Tricks To Becoming A Patient Person
Here’s a riddle: What do traffic jams, long lines and waiting for a vacation to start all have in common? There is one answer. ___16___.
In the Digital Age, we’re used to having what we need immediately and right at our fingertips. However, research suggests that if we practiced patience, we’d be a whole lot better off. Here are several tricks.
●Practice gratitude (感激)
Thankfulness has a lot of benefits: Research shows it makes us happier, less stressed and even more optimistic. ___17___. “Showing thankfulness can foster self-control,” said Ye Li, researcher at the University of California.
● Make yourself wait
Instant gratification (满足) may seem like the most “feel good” option at the time, but psychology research suggests waiting for things actually makes us happier in the long run. And the only way for us to get into the habit of waiting is to practice. ___18___. Put off watching your favorite show until the weekend or wait 10 extra minutes before going for that cake. You’ll soon find that the more patience you practice, the more you start to apply it to other, more annoying situations.
● ___19___.
So many of us have the belief that being comfortable is the only state we will tolerate, and when we experience something outside of our comfort zone, we get impatient about the circumstances. You should learn to say to yourself, “___20___.” You’ll then gradually become more patient.
A. Find your causes
B. Start with small tasks
C. Accept the uncomfortable
D. All this adds up to a state of hurry
E. It can also help us practice more patience
F. This is merely uncomfortable, not intolerable
G. They’re all situations where we could use a little extra patience
16.【2023年北京卷】It’s a joyful and stressful time of year in the United States for students and their families as they make decisions about where to attend college. Families often turn to rankings systems to help make a decision. ____35____
When I talk to families as a scholar of higher education, they’re often surprised that teaching excellence is not counted in rankings. ____36____
Emerging research suggests that courses in lower-ranked universities, on average, scored higher on teaching than courses in higher-ranked universities. ____37____ The absence of teaching excellence from the rankings is surprising given the link between high-quality teaching and student success. Quality teaching is one of the most important predictors of a wide range of college outcomes.
Rankings, however, are only one reason why a low value is placed on teaching in higher education. Administrators often don’t view teaching excellence as a way to increase enrolment (注册) or funding. ____38____ Research shows that the more time instructors spend on teaching, the lower their salary. What is the result? Many instructors continue to teach using traditional lectures, which lead to lower success rates.
____39____ Nevertheless, not much will change until schools with high-quality teaching are rewarded with more resources, higher rankings and increased enrolments. In the long term, universities, organisations that rank schools, and others should work to make teaching a valued, core part of the mission.
What should students and their families do? They should give strong consideration to universities where high-quality teaching is valued, even though the schools may be ranked lower.
A. Higher education has achieved its true potential.
B. Therefore, it’s not highly valued in hiring or promotion.
C. Quality teaching has been an important reputation-building factor.
D. However, the rankings ignore a critical factor: the quality of teaching.
E. Efforts to improve teaching at the university level have recently emerged.
F. They’re even more surprised at how teaching is undervalued by universities.
G. In fact, universities often shift emphasis from teaching to other ranking factors.
17.【2023年浙江1月卷】With gas prices rising and airport security lines snaking longer than ever, why not book your next domestic vacation on a train? Compared to other alternatives, it’s comfortable and relaxing. Here is some advice on how to make a trip by rail as pleasant as possible.
Plan ahead. Most long-distance trains, especially the sleeping car accommodations, sell out very quickly. 36 But no matter when you travel, it’s a good idea to make your reservations at least 90 days in advance.
Use a travel agent. Consider turning your travel plan over to a travel agent and letting him double-check all the details, make suggestions, and then handle the actual reservations. A good one can sometimes find you discounted tickets. 37 Then you won’t have to walk through several cars on a moving train three times a day for your meals.
Bring a blanket. When you’re riding on trains, you won’t be provided with a blanket for free, even if your trip is an overnight one. 38 In the summer in particular, the air conditioning can make them quite cold.
Arrive early. Most trains operate just once a day and some run only three times a week, so missing yours can be a disaster. 39 Note: The times listed on the schedules are departure times, not arrival times.
Have fun. 40 Read a book, knit, do a crossword puzzle, or simply watch the world unfold outside the window. To calculate your speed as you do, divide 3,600(the number of seconds in an hour)by the number of seconds it takes you to travel one mile(the distance between two mileposts). If it takes the train 53 seconds to travel one mile, you’re going 67.92 mph.
A.Train trips aren’t for impatient types.
B.You’ll have views from both sides of the train.
C.The temperature on rail cars is often hard to control.
D.That’s particularly true during busy summer months.
E.You might have to wait longer than 24 hours to catch the next one.
F.Chances are the cost will be a lot less than the cost of one bedroom.
G.He may also book you in a sleeping car that’s right next to the diner.

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.

例2 (2025年1月•浙江卷)
One of the most common mistakes in communication is trying to do too much. 36 There’s no value in delivering any kind of communication, whether written, spoken, formal, or informal, if the message doesn’t come across clearly. Being clear and brief — while maintaining interest and including everything your listeners need to know — is a high-level communication skill.
Here are some tips worth following in order to communicate more effectively.
Keep your audience in mind.
Your audience will naturally be more interested and engaged when you tailor your communications to their interests. 37 This will engage their desire to understand and interact with the information.
Don’t use ten words when one will do.
Even the most engaged and committed audience will eventually get bored. Keeping your message simple and clear will make it easier for people to understand. 38 However, they’re hearing it for the first time. Keep it simple.
39
If you’ve ever worked as an instructor, manager, trainer or coach, you’ll know that there are few better ways to learn new information than to teach it. Ask the audience to contribute their ideas or to take a role in explaining new concepts and policies to others. Allow them to lead discussions and meetings to develop their communication skills.
Consider the best method to deliver your message.
If the information you’re communicating isn’t urgent, consider sending an email. Written communication will give your audience more time to review it, think it over, and follow up with questions. 40
Building effective communication skills takes time, but the effects are worth the effort.
A.Be patient.
B.Get the audience involved.
C.The best messages are often simple.
D.Speak directly to what matters to them.
E.You may be surprised by what your listeners offer.
F.It will also give them a handy record to refer back to.
G.As the speaker, you already know what you’re going to say.

第二步:将选项代入设空处,看与上句和下句之间是否符合逻辑。
如何应对段中句的考查
段中设空题通常考查过渡句和细节句。段中句若位于主题句后,很可能是说明原因、举例证明、分述细化主题、解释前面句中的某个概念等;位于段落中间可能起衔接作用。要重点阅读空前一句和空后一句,找出它们之间的逻辑关系,或者根据意义的连贯性得出答案。解题时要特别注意体现时间、原因、方式、转折等逻辑关系的语篇标志词(关联词)。
段中设空题:
①细节句:设空位于段中,首先阅读选项并画出关键词;然后重点阅读设空处的前一句和后一句,画出关键词,找出它们之间的逻辑关系或根据意义的连贯性得出答案;阅读各个选项,标记关键词;比较匹配关键词,确定答案;利用词汇复现找到答案;利用表并列、转折、递进和因果的关系的关联词找到答案。
②过渡句:阅读空处前后内容,挖掘内在的逻辑关系;阅读各个选项,标记表示转折、并列、递进或因果关系的关联词;注意词汇复现:同源词、同义词、近义词或反义词复现,不同时态形式的动词等。
段中设空考查逻辑关系
段中设空主要考查上下文的逻辑关系。有时会出现下列衔接词汇或短语结构: first, second, then, next, later, soon, so, but, however, additionally, what’s more, that is, namely, in other words, for one thing. . . for another等, 这些词汇和短语结构在文章中起到提示逻辑关系的作用,是解题时需要重点关注的部分。考生应对常用的逻辑关系了然于心,并在阅读时能有效地找出关键信息。常考逻辑关系如下,
①总分关系:指选项是中心句;
②并列关系:指选项与前句或后句在结构或内容上一致;
③递进关系:指后句对前句进行补充说明或语义上的延伸;
④转折关系;指选项与前句或后句语义相反或相对,后句往往是对前句的修正,表达作者的真正意图;
⑤例证关系:指后句是前句的具体实例。
⑥概括阐释:指前句对后句或后句对前句进行归纳概括,若前句归纳,后句即是对前句的具体阐释,使得概念更加清晰易懂;若后句概括,即后句是对前句所阐释的内容进行意义整合;
⑦因果关系:指选项与前后句构成因果关系。

During your initial reading of material, do you ever go back and reread sentences or paragraphs? Is it because the material is too difficult to comprehend on the first reading or because you are asleep? 16 You are napping (打盹) or daydreaming. Halfway down the page you realize that you have no idea what you have read. 17 Thus, you go back and reread, not because you did not understand, but because you were not paying attention. This type of rereading is called regression.
A.Both are to blame.
B.Probably the latter is true.
C.Don’t just read the words; think the ideas.
D.Spend a few minutes reading the material aloud.

考点三 做7选5阅读常用的技巧
知●识●解●构
知识点 1.利用词汇关系解题
词汇复现法是为了保证文章前后衔接而经常使用的一种写作手段,即在文章中对同一个概念进行重复描述,从而使得同样的意思在文章中不同位置反复出现。在做题时考生要注意选项中出现的与正文意思相同、相近或相反的词汇。
词汇复现:原词复现、同义词或近义词复现、反义词复现、同源词复现。
识别词汇复现的方法:1.着重阅读空前、空后两句,锁定关键词,在选项中查找关键词。2.正确选项中的关键词一般重复前一句中的关键词,且与下一句的关键词呼应。
知识点2.利用一致关系解题
一致性原则包括:①句式一致:如果文章有小标题,其句式往往统一,多为祈使句或名词短语。通过观察前后段落的小标题句式,可以确定设空处的正确选项。若无小标题,可依据前后段的句首句式,利用句式一致原则进行判断。同样,段中句也可通过上下句式结构的一致性来判断正确答案。
②指代一致:句子中的代词与上下文的名词之间存在一致的指代关系。通过仔细分析空白处前后的名词,可以明确这种指代关系,从而确定正确选项。
③问答一致:在解答7选5题目时,如果选项或文章中出现了疑问句,我们可以通过下文的答语来确定上文的问句内容,反之亦然。
④主从句一致:在考查含状语从句的复合句时,如果空在前,则空白后部分以小写字母开头。找到备选项中不能独立成句的选项,再根据主从句一致原则确定正确答案。
知识点3.利用逻辑关系解题
一篇文章往往是一个有机的整体,各部分之间存在着一定的联系。从逻辑意义上来看,句子与句子之间常常有并列、顺承、递进、转折、总分、解释、因果等关系,有时甚至包含多种这样的关系。因此,理解阅读材料时一定要把握文章脉络,弄清其中的逻辑关系。如果文中或选项中出现了逻辑关系词,考生就可以利用逻辑关系词来进行推断;如果文中或选项中未出现逻辑关系词,这就需要考生全面理解文章大意,根据上下文语境弄清文章内在的逻辑关系,做出正确的判断。
句际逻辑关系
一组意义相关的句子,按照一定的逻辑关系排列起来,就能在语篇中表达一个层次的意思。这种逻辑关系有时是显性的,即运用明显的过渡词语来表达出来;有时是隐性的,即不使用任何过渡词语,仅凭句子的排列顺序来表达。语篇中的句际关系主要有以下诸类。
1) 平列关系
平列关系指句子之间在语义上处于平等并立的地位,互不相属。如果改变句子的排列顺序,并不影响整个语段的意义。例如:
All the people on our block give us trouble. Mrs. Brown calls the police whenever we go to play ball on the street. Mrs. Johnson complains that skateboarding makes too much noise. If we happen to stray into Mr. Hardy's yard, he yells at us.
上面这个语段中,后面三句是平列关系,共同说明“社区所有人都给我们带来麻烦”这一主题。
2)时序关系
时序关系指各个句子只能按事物发展的时间先后顺序排列,不可随意改动次序,常用于描述事件过程或者操作流程。例如:
We had a hard time getting Peter out of the hole he had fallen into. First, we made a rope by linking our belts together. Then we lowered it to Peter, telling him to grasp the end. After he had hold of the rope, we began to pull him slowly out of the hole. As he came up, no one dared to speak a word. Finally, we could grasp him arms, and with a sigh of relief, we pulled him out onto the grassy bank.
上面这个语段中,后五句话是时序关系,共同说明“我们好不容易才把Peter拉出掉进的坑”这一过程。描述中,分别用了first,then,after,as,finally这些描述顺序的关联过渡词语,使得文章脉络清晰。
3) 层递关系
层递关系指句子间按照语义的轻重、认知的深浅作由轻到重、由浅入深、由主到次的顺序排列。例如:
I seem to be suffering from all the illnesses imaginable: insomnia (失眠), headache, backache, indigestion (消化不良), constipation (便秘) and pains in the stomach. To make things still worse (更糟糕的是), I've caught a cold, I've got a sore throat, and I'm constantly sneezing and coughing. To crown it all (最糟糕的是), I had an accident the other day, hurt my right shoulder, leg and knee, and nearly broke my neck. If I take a long walk, I get short of breath. In fact, I feel more dead than alive.
上面语段中,作者用层层递进的方式描述了自己的不幸遭遇,感到生不如死。to make things worse 和 to crown it all,清楚地表现了这种层递关系。
4)转折关系
转折关系指句子间意义表达发生转折,常用于进行对比、对照。例如:
Cloning takes the DNA from a single cell to create a whole new individual. A clone is an organism which is genetically identical to another one. But it's now certain that no clone is an exact copy because of differences in experiences and upbringing.(克隆技术通过提取单个细胞的DNA来创造出一个完整的新个体。克隆体在基因上与另一个有机体是相同的。然而,现在可以确定的是,由于经历和成长环境的不同,没有哪个克隆体是一丝不差的复制品。)又例如:
It's tempting to see the life of a journalist as glamorous and exciting, but as with any other occupation, there is a lot of hard work and routine activity. It also depends on what kind of publication you work for. However, each day is different and you will cover a wide range of news stories and features.
5)总分关系
总分关系指前面的句子涉及两个或多个对象,后面的句子紧接着分别他们加以说明。这种组织方式使语段前后呼应,彼此配合,意义表达条理分明。例如:
Friends come in many flavors. There are best friends, school friends, fair-weather friends (顺境朋友), forever friends and many more. Best friends are friends with whom you spend a lot of time and with whom you share all your thoughts and feelings. School friends are different: you see each other in school and you study and have fun together, but you may not know everything about each other. Fair-weather friends are friends who only like you when you are happy or when you are popular. If you are feeling down, or if you are having a problem, fair-weather friends don't want to spend time or talk with you. Forever friends are friends that will always listen to you and try to help you, even if you disagree or if you are having a problem.
这一语段首先提出“朋友有许多种”,然后分别对best friends,school friends,fair-weather friends 和 forever friends 进行解释和说明。
6) 解释关系
解释关系指后面的句子对前面的句子进行阐释、引申、例证,从而使意义表达更加明了、具体、生动,更有说服力。例如:
Do you know that the average person puts only 25% of his energy and ability into his work? That means those who use 50% of their ability really stand out from the rest. And the very few who actually give their full 100% of strength and smarts to their work become the most successful. Many people want the greener grass, but they don't want to pay the higher water bill to get it!
普通人在工作或学习中只投入了25%的精力和能力。根据这一论断,作者进行了引申和阐释:投入50%就会出类拔萃,投入100%就会最成功。最后告诫普通人:草坪要比别家更加翠绿,就要比别人承担更多水费。
7) 因果关系
因果关系指句子之间在逻辑上存在因果联系。在排列方式上,既可以采用前因后果,也可以采用前果后因。例如:
Advertisers discovered years ago that all of us love to get something out of nothing. An advertisement which begins with the magic word FREE can rarely go wrong. These days, advertisers not only offer free samples, but free cars, free houses, and free trips around the world as well.
8)比拟关系
比拟关系指把深奥抽象的事物比喻为浅显易懂、具体生动的事物。从而达到深入浅出、通俗易懂、形象生动的表达效果。例如:
The surface of the earth is like the skin of an orange, which cannot be spread out flat unless it is torn into strips. That is why flat maps of the whole earth always distort its appearance.
此段把较为抽象的地球表面比拟成人们熟悉的橘子皮,形象地说明了为什么平面地图难以展示地球的真正地貌。

例3 (2023·新课标Ⅰ卷节选)It's something of a cliché(陈词滥调) that most people learn not from their successes but their mistakes. The thing is, it's true. 40 We're all changing and learning all the time and mistakes are a positive way to develop and grow.
A.A little selfforgiveness also goes a long way.
B.Now list all the characteristics you like about yourself.
C.They might even like to have a go at doing the exercise.
D.It's just as important to show yourself some forgiveness.
E.It doesn't mean you have to ignore what's happened or forget it.
F.Whatever it is, no matter how small it might seem, write it down.
G.Whatever the mistake, remember it isn't a fixed aspect of your personality.
解题思路:利用反义词复现法解题。本段主要讲人从错误中学习和成长。空后的changing提示人在不断变化,与G项中的fixed互为反义词,形成对比。因此,G项“不管你犯了什么错误,记住这不是你性格中固定的一面”承上启下,符合文意。
答案:G

(2016高考II卷)
A garden that’s just right for you
Have you ever visited a garden that seemed just right for you, where the atmosphere of the garden appeared to total more than the sum(总和) of its parts? 16 . But it doesn’t happen by accident. It starts with looking inside yourself and understanding who you are with respect to the natural world and how you approach the gardening process.
● 17
Some people may think that a garden is no more than plants, flowers, patterns and masses of color. Others are concerned about using gardening methods that require less water and fewer fertilizers (肥料). 18 .However, there are a number of other reasons that might explain why you want to garden. One of them comes from our earliest years.
●Recall(回忆)your childhood memories
Our model of what a garden should be often goes back to childhood. Grandma’s rose garden and Dad’s vegetable garden might be good or bad, but that’s not what’s important. 19 — how being in those gardens made us feel. If you’d like to build a powerful bond with your garden, start by taking some time to recall the gardens of your youth. 20 . Then go outside and work out a plan to translate your childhood memories into your grown-up garden. Have fun.
A. Know why you garden
B. Find a good place for your own garden
C. It’s our experience of the garden that matters
D. It’s delightful to see so many beautiful flowers
E. Still others may simply enjoy being outdoors and close to plants
F. You can produce that kind of magical quality in your own garden, too
G. For each of those gardens, write down the strongest memory you have
解题思路:本文是一篇说明文,介绍了如何种植一个正好适合你的花园。
16.F考查上下文的衔接。根据文章首句及下文的But it doesn’t happen by accident.可知,这里讲了“你是否曾去过一个花园……但是它不是偶然发生的。”故F. You can produce that kind of magical quality in your own garden, too符合语境。
17.A考查小标题。根据下文的a number of other reasons that might explain why you want to garden. 可知,本段主题与你想要种植花园的原因有关,再加上句式特征祈使句。故选A。18. E考查上下文的衔接。根据上文的"Some people may think..."和"Others are concerned about..."可知此处表达的是人们种植花园的不同原因,而E项中的"Still others may simply enjoy..."与上下文衔接自然, 故选E项。19. C考查上下文的衔接。根据上文的"...but that’s not what’s important"和下文中的"how being in those gardens made us feel"可知此处讲的应是什么是重要的,故C项符合语境。20. G考查上下文的衔接。上文的"the gardens of your youth"以及下文的"your childhood memories"与G项中的"those gardens"和"the strongest memory you have"相呼应,故选G项。

解题思路:设空处所在句子的后半句“but long-distance friendships — even close ones — may require more conscious effort to sustain.”(但是异地友谊——甚至是关系亲密的友谊——可能需要更加自觉地去维系。)讲的是我们要更加自觉地维系异地友谊,其中“but”说明后半句与设空处形成转折,而F项“朋友之间很容易通过社交媒体产生一种联结感”讲的是可以通过社交媒体这种方式很容易与朋友产生联结,与后半句“require more conscious effort to sustain”形成转折,而且其中的“social media”呼应了该段的小标题“Don’t rely on technology alone”(不要仅仅依赖技术)中的“technology”。故选F。
答案:F
例2因果关系
(2020新高考卷)
Even the most successful public speaker will make mistakes. Yet, the only one who cares about any mistake is the one who is speaking. People’s attention wanders constantly. In fact, most people only absorb about 20 percent of a speaker’s message. So, don’t stop speaking when you make a mistake unless it’s a truly serious one. 38
A. Do the opposite.
B.Y ou want to be an effective public speaker.
C. You don’ t need to apologize for a minor slip.
D. When it comes to public speaking, less is usually more.
E. The objective of most speeches is to benefit the audience
F. Take the fear out of public speaking by focusing on your listeners
G. However, the majority of people are effective speakers because they train to be.
解题思路:根据上文中的“So,don’t stop speaking when you make a mistake unless it’s a truly serious one.”可知,当你犯错时不要停止演讲,除非是非常严重的错误。据此可以推知,空处承接上文,说明犯小错误无需道歉,故C项正确。
答案:C
例3递进关系

A. Find your causes
B. Start with small tasks
C. Accept the uncomfortable
D. All this adds up to a state of hurry
E. It can also help us practice more patience
F. This is merely uncomfortable, not intolerable
G. They’re all situations where we could use a little extra patience
解题思路:37.根据上文“Thankfulness has a lot of benefits: Research shows it makes us happier, less stressed and even more optimistic.(感恩有很多好处:研究表明,感恩让我们更快乐,压力更小,甚至更乐观)”以及后文““Showing thankfulness can foster self-control,” said Ye Li, researcher at the University of California. (加州大学的研究员叶丽说:“表达感激可以培养自我控制能力。”)”可知,上文提到了感恩的诸多好处,可知本句继续说明感恩的好处:它还可以帮助我们练习更多的耐心。E选项中It指代上文Thankfulness。故E选项“它还可以帮助我们练习更多的耐心”符合语境,故选E。also表示递进关系。

1. (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.
A.This capability allows for timely restoration.
B.Visitor data collection also raises privacy issues.
C.In short, AI is redefining the museum in all respects.
D.It tailors learning experiences to different age groups and learning styles.
E.Museums are not only places to store artworks, but also spaces for learning.
F.Furthermore, AI-powered virtual guides are replacing traditional tour guides.
G.AI is changing this by using image recognition technology to analyze exhibits.

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
【解析】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。
3. (2026年1月·浙江卷)
During your initial reading of material, do you ever go back and reread sentences or paragraphs? Is it because the material is too difficult to comprehend on the first reading or because you are asleep? 16 You are napping (打盹) or daydreaming. Halfway down the page you realize that you have no idea what you have read. 17 Thus, you go back and reread, not because you did not understand, but because you were not paying attention. This type of rereading is called regression.
Napping and daydreaming are habits caused by lack of involvement with the material. Be demanding on yourself and expect 100 percent attention to the task. Engage your mind. Visualize the incoming ideas, and relate the new material to what you already know. 18 If your mind is truly occupied with the text, you will not be able to think about Friday night or where to go on Saturday.
Regression is a crutch (拐杖) that allows you to make up for wasted time. First of all, become aware of when and why you are regressing. 19 Say, “OK. I missed that paragraph because I was thinking of something else, but I’m going to keep on going and start paying close attention.”
20 Good readers who monitor their own comprehension use it in the reading process. However, regressing because your mind was asleep is a waste of time.
A.Both are to blame.
B.Probably the latter is true.
C.Don’t just read the words; think the ideas.
D.Spend a few minutes reading the material aloud.
E.Your eyes were engaged, but your mind was not.
F.Then, start denying yourself the right in order to break the habit.
G.Rereading because you did not understand is a reasonable fix-up strategy.
【答案】16.B 17.E 18.C 19.F 20.G
【解析】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍阅读中因打瞌睡导致的回读现象,分析原因并给出专注阅读、克服该习惯的建议。
16.根据上文“Is it because the material is too difficult to comprehend on the first reading or because you are asleep? (是因为材料太难,第一次读不懂,还是因为你打瞌睡了?)”以及下文“You are napping (打盹) or daydreaming. (你在打盹或做白日梦。)”可知,此处应承接上文的两个疑问,明确更可能是后者(打瞌睡)的情况,B选项“Probably the latter is true. (可能后者是对的。)”中的the latter指代上文because you are asleep,与下文的打盹、做白日梦相呼应,符合语境。故选B项。
17.根据上文“Halfway down the page you realize that you have no idea what you have read. (读到页面中间,你意识到自己根本不知道读了什么。)”以及下文“Thus, you go back and reread, not because you did not understand, but because you were not paying attention. (因此,你回去重读,不是因为你不懂,而是因为你没有集中注意力。)”可知,此处应体现眼睛在看但大脑没专注的状态,E选项“Your eyes were engaged, but your mind was not. (你的眼睛在看,但你的大脑没有投入。)”既解释了为什么不知道读了什么,又为下文“没集中注意力”的原因做铺垫,符合语境。故选E项。
18.根据上文“Engage your mind. Visualize the incoming ideas, and relate the new material to what you already know. (集中注意力。想象即将接收的观点,并将新材料与你已有的知识联系起来。)”以及下文“If your mind is truly occupied with the text, you will not be able to think about Friday night or where to go on Saturday. (如果你的大脑真的专注于文本,你就不会去想周五晚上或周六去哪里。)”可知,此处应强调阅读时要思考观点而非只看文字,C选项“Don’t just read the words; think the ideas. (不要只看文字,要思考其中的观点。)”与上文Engage your mind和下文mind is truly occupied with the text相呼应,符合语境。故选C项。
19.根据上文“First of all, become aware of when and why you are regressing. (首先,要意识到自己何时以及为何会回读。)”以及下文“Say, “OK. I missed that paragraph because I was thinking of something else, but I’m going to keep on going and start paying close attention.” (比如,“好的。我因为想别的事情错过了那一段,但我会继续读下去,并开始集中注意力。”)”可知,此处应体现意识到回读原因后,要拒绝回读以打破习惯,F选项“Then, start denying yourself the right in order to break the habit. (然后,开始拒绝自己回读的权利,以打破这个习惯。)”中的Then承接上文First of all,denying yourself the right与下文keep on going相呼应,符合语境。故选F项。
20.根据下文“Good readers who monitor their own comprehension use it in the reading process. However, regressing because your mind was asleep is a waste of time. (善于监控自己理解程度的优秀读者会在阅读过程中使用它。然而,因为打瞌睡而回读是浪费时间。)”可知,此处应区分两种回读,强调因不懂而回读是合理的,G选项“Rereading because you did not understand is a reasonable fix-up strategy. (因为不懂而回读是一种合理的补救策略。)”中的Rereading because you did not understand与下文regressing because your mind was asleep形成对比,reasonable fix-up strategy与下文use it in the reading process相呼应,符合语境。故选G项。

Most of us have experienced both how good it can feel and how hard it can be to do the right thing. Helping strangers can leave you with a deep sense of satisfaction, but you’ve likely also felt the stress of showing up for others when you’re already stretched thin. These ordinary moments speak to a philosophical puzzle: Are moral people happier? 35 Others might reason that moral behavior often requires self-sacrifice.
36 Past studies clearly show that people feel good when they perform acts of kindness for others. But researchers had not directly examined if moral character, broadly speaking, is linked to well-being. So my team conducted a set of studies to take this challenge seriously.
In one of our studies, undergraduate students reported on their own well-being, rating their happiness as well as their sense of how meaningful their life is. 37 Then these close others, such as friends and family members, rated the participant’s moral character using our questionnaire (调查问卷), which asked how much that person had the various characteristics identified as most morally relevant. 38
Doing the right thing isn’t always easy. 39 But our findings indicate that, in general, there’s no trade-off between morality and well-being. Instead, people with stronger moral character tend to experience greater meaning in life and happiness. This suggests that moments of moral effort may be part of a life that, taken as a whole, feels more satisfying.
A.Until recently, scientific evidence had been limited to one aspect of morality: kindness.
B.Despite various debates, there’s no agreement on what it means to be morally good.
C.Standing up for someone who is being treated unfairly can feel uncomfortable.
D.Some might assume morality and happiness naturally go together.
E.They also gave us contact information for people who know them.
F.We found that those rated as more moral reported a stronger sense of well-being.
G.This might be in part because of the difficulties of defining and measuring kindness.
【答案】35.D 36.A 37.E 38.F 39.C
【解析】文章围绕“品行高尚的人是否更幸福”这一话题展开,介绍相关研究过程与实验结论,论证道德品质与幸福感总体并不冲突,品德越高的人往往幸福感更强。
35.由上文“These ordinary moments speak to a philosophical puzzle: Are moral people happier?(这些日常小事引出了一个哲学难题:品德高尚的人会更幸福吗?)”以及下文“Others might reason that moral behavior often requires self-sacrifice(另一些人可能认为道德行为往往需要自我牺牲。)”可知,前后为Some... Others... 结构,分别介绍人们对于道德和幸福关系的两种截然不同看法。D选项“Some might assume morality and happiness naturally go together.(有些人会认为道德与幸福本就相伴相生。)”能承上启下,符合题意,该选项中“morality and happiness”呼应上文“Are moral people happier”,“Some”与下文“Others”构成逻辑呼应。
36.由下文“Past studies clearly show that people feel good when they perform acts of kindness for others. But researchers had not directly examined if moral character, broadly speaking, is linked to well-being.(以往研究明确表明人们对他人行善时心情愉悦。但研究人员此前并未大范围直接研究道德品质是否与幸福感存在关联。)”可知,本段介绍以往研究的局限性。A选项“Until recently, scientific evidence had been limited to one aspect of morality: kindness.(直到近期,科学证据仅局限于道德的一个层面:善意善行。)”能引出旧研究的短板,承接下文内容,该选项中“Until recently”与下文“Past studies”形成呼应,“kindness”与下文“acts of kindness”相呼应。

5. (2025·北京卷)What is adulthood? Societies all over the world view the concept of an adult as self-supporting and self-directed, because it identifies a point in the life cycle.
As Alice Black points out, today’s parents’ fear of letting kids do more housework has added to their inability to feel competent and, thus, confident in themselves. Psychologist Robert Turner wrote about this in his book, The Life Cycle, mentioning a stage when kids learn self-direction and mastery. 35
But Turner’s other cycles are just as important. 36 If these life cycles are delayed, interrupted, or denied, you feel incapable of accessing your states of self, controlling unpleasant feelings, and manipulating (操控) the energy that puts together the fabric of your inner world.
Turner wisely said that “doing well” psychologically is being able to roll with the flow of emotions, manage them, communicate clearly and well with others, and master various skills. This requires an internal locus (核心) of control, which implies self-control of your thoughts, feelings, and actions. 37 You’re self-directed and not reliant on the world to tell you who you are. And you know who you are within all this.
So, being an adult isn’t just holding a job. Being an adult is about having a rooted sense of self while being capable of identifying and managing your emotions and actions. 38 We are a social species, so this is important.
While raising an adult is a parent’s job, it’s also our responsibility as a society to ensure that we support schools that nurture (培养) emotional and identity development. 39
A.It’s also our job to support adults who need help repairing incomplete life cycles.
B.They talk about someone’s inability to support themselves through work.
C.It’s being able to show understanding when communicating with others.
D.In other words, you’re playing the game of life — life isn’t playing you.
E.They teach emotional awareness and management as well as identity.
F.You feel like an 18-year old, especially when playing 80s music.
G.When this stage is denied it creates a sense of insecurity.
【答案】35.G 36.E 37.D 38.C 39.A
【解析】本文是一篇议论文,文章主要探讨了成年人的定义及其所需具备的特质,并强调了社会在培养成年人方面的责任。

Psychologist Robert Turner wrote about this in his book, The Life Cycle, mentioning a stage when kids learn self-direction and mastery. (正如Alice Black所指出的,如今父母害怕让孩子做更多家务,这加剧了孩子们无法感受到自身的能力,进而也导致他们对自己缺乏自信。心理学家Robert Turner在他的著作《生命周期》中提到了这一点,他提到了孩子们学习自我指导和掌握技能的阶段。)”可知,本空应强调这个阶段的重要性或缺失这个阶段会带来什么影响。G选项“When this stage is denied it creates a sense of insecurity.

(换句话说,你是在玩人生的游戏——而不是人生在玩你。)”能承接上文,符合题意,用比喻的方式解释了内部控制点的意义,即你能够掌控自己的人生,而不是被人生所掌控。故选D。

I keep two reference books close-by on my desk: dictionary and thesaurus (同义词词典). I don't trust my laptop's spellchecker. ____37____ Of course, these days there are plenty of online dictionaries and thesauruses, but I'm old-fashioned enough to prefer a hard cover and pages I can leaf through with my fingers.

____38____ It should give you a precise definition of each word, thus differentiating it from other words whose meanings are similar, but not identical. It will also usually show how the word is pronounced.
In addition, I have an old two-volume copy of the Shorter Oxford Dictionary, picked up a few years ago in a bookshop sale for just 99 pence. Of course, with its 2,672 pages, it's not exactly short. It contains around 163,000 words, plus word combinations and idiomatic phrases. ____39____ However, if I need to check the origin of a word or to look up examples of its usage, there's nothing better.
For well over a hundred years the most influential English dictionary was Samuel Johnson's Dictionary of the English Language published in 1755.

8.【2024新课标ⅠⅠ卷】Overtourism Is For Real: How Can You Help?
Travel promotes understanding, expands our minds, makes us better people, and boosts local economies and communities, but the rapid growth of travel has led to overtourism in certain regions and destinations. ___16___ Certainly not. The loss of what travel offers would be unacceptable in today’s world. Here are some tips on making wise decisions to minimize pressure on the places we visit and improve our experience.
●Choose mindfully. Overvisited destinations are that way for a reason: they’re special. With so many online posts featuring the same places, it’s easy to feel like you’re missing out. Go somewhere only when the landscape, culture or food deeply draws you. ___17___
●Get creative. The best way to ease pressure on over-touristed destinations is to go somewhere else.

That means you have tons of less-visited options to choose from. ___18___ Why not try a regional alternative or check out a popular destination’s lesser-known sights?
● ___19___ Minimize impact and maximize experience by skipping major holidays or rush hour. You’ll compete with fewer tourists, save money, experience a different side of a popular place, and boost the economy when tourism is traditionally slower.
Visiting a place that others call home is a privilege(荣幸). Do your part to preserve what makes a destination special in the first place. ___20___ You may be amazed how much closer you’ll feel to the people there.
A. Visit during off-peak times.
B. So, should we stop traveling?
C. Travel for you and no one else.
D. Can overtourism be avoided then?
E. You can still find relatively undiscovered places.
F. You’ll find yourself virtually alone, or close to it.
G. Consider giving back to the communities you’re visiting.

10.【2024北京卷】If you want to develop maximum credibility (可信性), is it better to be a hedgehog (刺猬) or a fox? According to Isaiah Berlin, the hedgehog knows one thing very well, and the fox knows a lot of things.
Is there a clear advantage of one style over the other? Hedgehog thinkers tend to answer yes. ___35___ And they are usually very credible in doing so. According to Jim Hart, the “hedgehog concept” is one of the factors that lead companies to greatness. They focus on one thing and do it really well. They figure out what they are good at. ___36___ The hedgehog concept makes perfect sense for companies.
___37___ Philip Tate has studied the track records of those folks on the Sunday talk shows who make predictions about what will happen. He has found that hedgehogs are not only wrong more often than foxes, but that they are less likely to recognise or admit that they are wrong when events do not match their predictions.
The advantage that. foxes have is that they are more likely to seek out new information from a broader range of sources, and are comfortable with uncertainty and new information. ___38___ They try to include it in their viewpoint rather than to exclude it from their thinking. They also have a clearer estimation of what they know and don’t know.
So, which is better? The question can be answered in a foxy hedgehog style. ___39___ The choice between being a hedgehog or a fox is a false trade-off. The most effective way to go through life is to try to be that rare mixture known as foxy hedgehog.
A. In other words, there are clear advantages for each.
B. They are more likely to remember people’s mistakes.
C. Hence, they have the advantage of clarity and confidence.
D. But there can be a downside to concentration on one big thing.
E. However, hedgehogs remain open to others’ reactions and inputs.
F. When something is contradictory to their view, they don’t treat it as exceptional.
G. They come down squarely on one side or the other and fully support their position.
【答案】35. G 36. C 37. D 38. F 39. A
【解析】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了拥有“刺猬”型思维方式和“狐狸”型思维方式的两类人对于个人和企业建立信誉度的优劣势。
