B ——The American Scholar, January 18, 2024（改编） When I was a child, my mother kept a thick, worn Merriam-Webster dictionary on the shelf in our living room. It was a family heirloom of sorts, passed down from my grandmother. As a teenager, I rarely used it — why bother when the digital dictionary on my phone was always a tap away? But whenever I did pull it down, its weight and the rustle of its pages filled me with a reverence I could not quite explain. Years later, when my own son, then ten, asked me the meaning of a word while reading, I found myself reaching for a dictionary app. Before I could type, however, something stopped me. I walked over to the bookshelf, pulled down my old dictionary — its spine cracked and yellowed — and handed it to him. “Look it up,” I said. He stared at me as if I had handed him a stone tablet. The idea of finding a word alphabetically was utterly foreign to him. Yet, as he flipped through the pages, his finger tracing the entries, something shifted. He was not just finding a definition; he was encountering other words along the way. He stumbled upon “obstinate,” lingered over “opulent,” and got lost in a web of language that no search bar could offer. Half an hour later, he had not only found his original word but had discovered a dozen others he liked better. In that moment, I realized what I had been missing. The digital world gives us answers, but it rarely gives us journeys. The act of looking up a word in a physical dictionary is not about efficiency; it is about discovery. It is about the quiet thrill of getting lost and finding something you were not looking for. My son, too, seemed to understand. He closed the dictionary with a soft thump and said, “This is cool.” Now, I do not argue that we should abandon digital tools. They are indispensable. But I have come to believe that learning is not just about acquiring knowledge; it is about cultivating curiosity and the patience to explore. And sometimes, the slow, inefficient way is the one that teaches us the most. The true essence of learning lies not in the tools we use, but in the desire to know, and the willingness to wander in search of answers. 4.Why did the author hand his son a physical dictionary instead of using a digital app? A. He wanted his son to appreciate the weight of the book. B. He wanted his son to experience the joy of exploration. C. He believed the dictionary was more accurate. D. He wanted to test his son‘s vocabulary skills. 5.The word “stumbled upon” in paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to ______. A. tripped over B. discovered by chance C. searched for D. ignored completely 6.What does the author mean by “the digital world gives us answers, but it rarely gives us journeys”? A. Digital tools are not useful for serious learning. B. Physical books provide more entertainment than digital ones. C. The process of exploration is as valuable as the answer itself. D. Learning should always be quick and efficient. 7.What is the main message of this passage? A. Physical dictionaries are superior to digital dictionaries. B. The true value of learning lies in curiosity and exploration. C. Children today are not interested in reading. D. Technology has made traditional learning completely unnecessary. C ——State of the Planet, August 5, 2024（改编） In line with longstanding initiatives to expand its green spaces, New York City is planting tens of thousands of trees each year. They provide shade, lower surface temperatures, absorb airborne carbon, and provide wildlife habitat along with just plain beauty. Something could go wrong, though, according to a new study. Oaks and sweetgums, which currently account for a majority of the city‘s trees, produce huge amounts of a chemical substance called isoprene. Harmless by itself, isoprene interacts rapidly with polluting nitrogen oxides released by vehicles, buildings and industry to form ground-level ozone — a major factor in many breathing problems. The research, carried out by scientists at the Columbia Climate School and other institutions, found that if the city maintains past species patterns in new plantings, isoprene production in Manhattan in coming decades will go up by about 140%, and resulting summer ozone levels as much as 30%. “We’re all for planting more trees. They bring so many good things,” said study coauthor Róisín Commane. “But if we‘re not careful, we could make air quality worse.” The Parks Department is not oblivious to the issue. A study carried out by some of its researchers several years ago concluded that city trees did release isoprene. “We didn’t make a big deal of that,” said Novem Auyeung, a Parks Department senior scientist. She said trees should not be viewed as the enemy. “We could plant any trees we want to, if we just rethink our car-centric lifestyle,” she said. “We‘re not going to go cutting down any big old oaks,” and neither will the department completely stop planting new ones, said Auyeung. “You have to think about what you would lose if you do that.” Oaks are keystone species, she pointed out, providing food and habitat for native insects, birds and other animals. 8.What does the new study imply regarding oaks and sweetgums? A. They affect the growth of other trees. B. They absorb less carbon than expected. C. They harm people‘s health indirectly. D. They raise local temperatures slowly. 9.Which of the following may Commane suggest based on the study? A. Cutting down all isoprene-producing trees. B. Suspending tree-planting for a few decades. C. Changing the species of trees in new plantings. D. Removing isoprene released by existing trees. 10.What does the underlined phrase “oblivious to” in paragraph 5 mean? A. Honest about. B. Unaware of. C. Related to. D. Optimistic about. 11.What would Auyeung probably advocate? A. Reducing car use in daily life. B. Providing animals with new habitats. C. Controlling population growth. D. Doing more research on the problem. D ——University of Cambridge, May 7, 2025（改编） A psychological experiment conducted at Kettle‘s Yard suggests that actively considering the beauty of art increases abstract thinking, helping us escape the “mental trapping” of day-to-day living. Since the dawn of philosophy, thinkers from Plato to Kant have considered how beauty affects human experience, and whether it has the power to transform our state of mind. Now, a new study from the University of Cambridge suggests that stopping to contemplate the beauty of artistic objects in a gallery boosts our ability to think in abstract ways and consider the “bigger picture.” Researchers say the findings offer empirical evidence that engaging with artistic beauty helps us escape the “mental trappings of daily life,” such as current anxieties and to-do lists, and induce “psychological distancing” — the process of zoning out of your thoughts to gain clarity. A team of Cambridge psychologists conducted an experiment using the University‘s modern art gallery, Kettle’s Yard, as a “living laboratory” to compare the cognitive effects of merely staring at works with actively judging how beautiful they are. Researchers found that participants who focused on the beauty of objects in an exhibition were more likely to experience elevated psychological states enabling them to think “beyond the here and now,” and more likely to report feeling enlightened, moved, or transformed. This was compared to participants who were simply asked to look intently at the objects and match them with a series of line drawings. The findings are published in the journal Empirical Studies of the Arts. The study, among the first to explore how aesthetic experiences in a gallery can affect cognitive processing, reinforces the importance of art creation as well as art appreciation. “Many philosophers throughout history have suggested that engaging with aesthetic beauty invokes a special kind of psychological state,” said Prof. Simone Schall, senior author of the study. “Our research indicates that engaging with the beauty of art can enhance abstract thinking and promote a different mindset to our everyday patterns of thought, shifting us into a more expansive state of mind. This is known as psychological distancing, when one snaps out of the mental trapping of daily life and focuses more on the overall picture.” 12.What was the task of the “beauty” group in the experiment? A. Matching line drawings with objects. B. Rating how beautiful each object was. C. Creating their own artistic works. D. Describing their daily worries. 13.What does the study suggest about engaging with artistic beauty? A. It mainly improves practical skills. B. It helps people focus on daily tasks. C. It promotes abstract and big-picture thinking. D. It reduces people‘s appreciation of art. 14.The underlined word “empirical” in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to ______. A. theoretical B. visual C. historical D. evidence-based 15.What is the best title for this passage? A. How Art Museums Shape Our Daily Lives B. The Science Behind Artistic Beauty and Thinking C. A New Way to Improve Artistic Skills D. The History of Aesthetic Philosophy 第二节 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 E ——Unwritten, April 3, 2015（改编） During your initial reading of material, do you ever go back and reread sentences or paragraphs?

Staff strongly suggest booking ahead to avoid higher parking rates on site”说明推荐通过ParkWhiz应用提前预订。A项“提前致电停车场工作人员”未提及；C项“至少提前两小时到达”未提及；D项“打印停车证纸质版”未提及。故正确答案为B。 第3题 答案：C 题干句意： 美国队将于哪一天在SoFi体育场比赛？ 解析： 本题考查细节理解。根据赛程表，美国队分别在6月12日（对阵巴拉圭）和6月25日（对阵土耳其）比赛，选项中只有6月25日符合。A项6月15日是伊朗对新西兰；B项6月21日是比利时对伊朗；D项7月2日是32强赛第84场，美国队未参赛。故正确答案为C。 阅读理解 B篇 文章大意： 本文是一篇记叙文。作者通过回忆童年家中厚重的纸质词典，以及后来让儿子通过纸质词典查阅单词的经历，感悟到学习的本质不仅在于获取知识，更在于培养好奇心和探索的耐心。 第4题 答案：B 题干句意： 为什么作者递给儿子一本纸质词典而不是使用手机应用？ 解析： 本题考查推理判断。作者在第三段描述儿子翻查词典时不仅找到了原词，还意外发现了其他词，“got lost in a web of language that no search bar could offer”，第四段进一步说明“The act of looking up a word in a physical dictionary is not about efficiency; it is about discovery.”因此作者希望儿子体验探索的乐趣。A项“欣赏书的重量”过于表面；C项“更准确”文中未提及；D项“测试词汇量”与文意不符。故正确答案为B。 第5题 答案：B 题干句意： 第3段中“stumbled upon”的含义最接近______。 解析： 本题考查词义猜测。“stumbled upon”意为“偶然发现、意外遇到”。文中描述孩子在翻词典时，意外发现了“obstinate”和“opulent”等单词，而非有意搜索。A项“绊倒”为字面含义；C项“搜索”与“意外发现”含义相反；D项“完全忽略”与文意不符。故正确答案为B。 第6题 答案：C 题干句意： 作者说“数字世界给我们答案，但很少给我们旅程”是什么意思？ 解析： 本题考查推理判断。结合上下文，作者认为数字工具直接给出答案，但缺少探索的过程，而探索过程本身和答案同样有价值。第四段末“It is about the quiet thrill of getting lost and finding something you were not looking for.”与C项一致。A项“数字工具对学习无用”过于绝对；B项“纸质书比数字工具提供更多娱乐”偏离主题；D项“学习应快速高效”与作者主张相反。故正确答案为C。 第7题 答案：B 题干句意： 这篇文章的主要信息是什么？ 解析： 本题考查主旨大意。全文通过词典使用的故事，说明学习的真谛在于好奇心和探索精神，最后一段“The true essence of learning lies not in the tools we use, but in the desire to know, and the willingness to wander in search of answers.”直接点明主题。A项“纸质词典优于数字词典”过于绝对；C项“现在的孩子不喜欢阅读”以偏概全；D项“技术使传统学习完全不必要”与末段“digital tools are indispensable”矛盾。故正确答案为B。 阅读理解 C篇 文章大意： 本文是一篇说明文，报道了一项关于纽约市大规模植树计划可能带来负面气候影响的研究。研究发现，橡树和枫香树释放的异戊二烯与车辆排放的氮氧化物反应会形成臭氧，危害空气质量。 第8题 答案：C 题干句意： 关于橡树和枫香树，这项新研究表明了什么？ 解析： 本题考查推理判断。根据第二段，橡树和枫香树释放异戊二烯，与车辆排放的氮氧化物反应形成地面臭氧，而臭氧是“a major factor in many breathing problems”，因此这些树木间接危害人类健康。A项“影响其他树木生长”未提及；B项“吸收碳比预期少”未提及；D项“缓慢升高当地温度”与文中“lower surface temperatures”相反。故正确答案为C。 第9题 答案：C 题干句意： 根据这项研究，Commane可能会建议以下哪项？ 解析： 本题考查推理判断。根据研究结果，如果维持过去的树种模式（主要种植橡树和枫香树），异戊二烯产量将大幅增加。Commane表示“如果不够小心，可能会让空气质量更差”，暗示应在新增种植中改变树种选择。A项“砍掉所有产异戊二烯的树”过于极端；B项“暂停植树几十年”与Commane“We‘re all for planting more trees”矛盾；D项“去除现有树木释放的异戊二烯”不切实际。故正确答案为C。 第10题 答案：B 题干句意： 第5段中画线短语“oblivious to”的含义是什么？ 解析： 本题考查词义猜测。“oblivious to”意为“未察觉、忽视”。前文提到研究指出树木可能带来的空气质量问题，第五段首句“The Parks Department is not oblivious to the issue.”后文说明“A study carried out... concluded that city trees did release isoprene”，表明公园部门并非没有意识到该问题。A项“坦诚面对”、C项“与……相关”、D项“对……乐观”均不符合。故正确答案为B。 第11题 答案：A 题干句意： Auyeung可能会主张什么？ 解析： 本题考查推理判断。第五段Auyeung说“We could plant any trees we want to, if we just rethink our car-centric lifestyle”，表明她主张通过减少汽车使用来从根本上解决问题。B项“为动物提供新栖息地”偏离其核心主张；C项“控制人口增长”未提及；D项“做更多研究”文中未强调。故正确答案为A。 阅读理解 D篇 文章大意： 本文是一篇议论文/说明文，介绍了剑桥大学的一项研究，该研究表明主动欣赏艺术之美可以促进抽象思维，帮助人们摆脱日常思维的局限，进入更开阔的心理状态。 第12题 答案：B 题干句意： 实验中“美感”组的任务是什么？ 解析： 本题考查细节理解。第三段明确说“actively judging how beautiful they are”，即对每件艺术品的美丽程度进行评判。A项“将线条画与物体配对”是另一组的任务；C项“创作艺术作品”未提及；D项“描述日常烦恼”未提及。故正确答案为B。 第13题 答案：C 题干句意： 关于欣赏艺术之美，研究表明了什么？ 解析： 本题考查细节理解。第二段指出“engaging with artistic beauty helps us escape the mental trappings of daily life”和“consider the ‘bigger picture’”，最后一段Schall教授进一步说明“enhance abstract thinking and promote a different mindset”。A项“主要提升实用技能”与“abstract thinking”不符；B项“帮助专注日常任务”与“escape mental trapping”相反；D项“减少对艺术的欣赏”文中未提及。故正确答案为C。 第14题 答案：D 题干句意： 第2段中画线单词“empirical”的含义最接近______。 解析： 本题考查词义猜测。“empirical”意为“基于经验的、实证的”。文中说研究提供了“empirical evidence”，即基于实验数据的证据，以支持哲学家们长期以来的理论推测。A项“理论的”、B项“视觉的”、C项“历史的”均不符合。故正确答案为D。 第15题 答案：B 题干句意： 这篇文章的最佳标题是什么？ 解析： 本题考查主旨大意。全文介绍剑桥大学的研究，探讨艺术审美如何影响认知和抽象思维，本质上是关于艺术之美与思维之间的科学关系。A项“艺术博物馆如何塑造日常生活”过于宽泛；C项“提升艺术技能的新方法”偏离主题；D项“美学哲学史”侧重于历史而非本研究。故正确答案为B。 阅读理解 E篇（七选五） 文章大意： 本文是一篇说明文，讨论了阅读中“回读”现象，区分因不理解而回读和因走神而回读两种情况，提供了识别和改善阅读习惯的建议。 第16题 答案：B 题干句意： 在阅读过程中，你是否会回读句子或段落？是因为材料太难理解，还是因为你的思绪飘到了别处？（16）______ 解析： 本题考查段落衔接。前句提出两种可能性——“太难理解”和“走神”，B项“Probably the latter is true”（可能后者是真的）指“走神”这一可能性，承接前句并引出后文关于“走神”的讨论。A项“两者都有责任”与后文“napping and daydreaming”的单一指向不完全匹配。故正确答案为B。 第17题 答案：C 题干句意： 打盹和白日梦是因对材料缺乏参与而形成的习惯。对自己要求严格，期待百分百的注意力。______ 想象正在进入的想法，并将新材料与已知内容联系起来。 解析： 本题考查细节衔接。后句具体说明如何“参与”——将新想法可视化、与已知知识联系，C项“Don‘t just read the words; think the ideas.”（不要只读文字；要思考内涵）概括了“参与”的核心要义，与后文具体做法形成总分。故正确答案为C。 第18题 答案：F 题干句意： 回读是让你弥补浪费时间的拐杖。首先，意识到何时何地走神。（18）______ 解析： 本题考查逻辑衔接。前句提出要意识到走神情况，后句给出具体的自我对话示例——“好吧，那段我没读到……但我要继续。”F项“Then, start denying yourself the right in order to break the habit.”（然后开始拒绝自己[走神]的权利以打破习惯）承接从“意识到问题”到“采取行动”的转折，与后文“拒绝回读”的具体做法对应。故正确答案为F。 第19题 答案：G 题干句意： （19）______ 因不理解而重读是合理的策略。 解析： 本题考查段落主旨句。后句明确区分“因不理解而重读”和“因走神而回读”两种情况，G项“Rereading because you did not understand is a reasonable fix-up strategy.”（因没理解而重读是合理的补救策略）正是后句的直接表述，且与后文形成“合理→不合理”的对比。故正确答案为G。 第20题 答案：A 题干句意： （20）______ 关键是识别原因并适当处理。 解析： 本题考查结论句。全文讨论两种“回读”情况——因困难而回读和因走神而回读，A项“Both are to blame.”（两者都要避免/都不好）作为总结，指出无论哪种情况都是不理想的阅读习惯，引出后文“识别原因并适当处理”的建议。E项“眼睛在工作但思维没有”是走神的描述而非总结。故正确答案为A。 多余选项： D（大声朗读几分钟——文中未提及）、E（眼睛在工作但思维没有——虽与第16空相关但B更直接，E适合作为第16空的干扰项） 三、长难句分析 1. 原句： “The digital world gives us answers, but it rarely gives us journeys, which is why the quiet thrill of getting lost and finding something you were not looking for can be a more valuable experience than simply receiving the information you requested.” 翻译： 数字世界给我们答案，但很少给我们旅程，这就是为什么在迷失方向和意外发现未曾寻找之物时那种安静的兴奋，可能比仅仅接收你所请求的信息更有价值。 句子结构分析： 本句为复合句，包含并列句、非限制性定语从句、定语从句和表语从句。 并列句：The digital world gives us answers, but it rarely gives us journeys 非限制性定语从句：, which is why...（which指代前面整句内容） 表语从句：why the quiet thrill... can be a more valuable experience than simply receiving the information（作is的表语，why引导表语从句） 定语从句：you were not looking for（修饰something） 定语从句：you requested（修饰information） 2. 原句： “The research, carried out by scientists at the Columbia Climate School and other institutions, found that if the city maintains past species patterns in new plantings, isoprene production in Manhattan in coming decades will go up by about 140%, and resulting summer ozone levels as much as 30%.” 翻译： 由哥伦比亚气候学院和其他机构科学家进行的研究发现，如果该市在新的种植中维持过去的树种模式，未来几十年曼哈顿的异戊二烯产量将增加约140%，由此导致的夏季臭氧水平将增加多达30%。 句子结构分析： 本句为复合句，包含过去分词短语作插入语、宾语从句和条件状语从句。 主句：The research（主语）found（谓语） 插入语：carried out by scientists at the Columbia Climate School and other institutions（过去分词短语作定语，修饰research） 宾语从句：that if the city maintains past species patterns in new plantings, isoprene production... will go up by about 140%, and resulting summer ozone levels as much as 30%（作found的宾语） 条件状语从句：if the city maintains past species patterns in new plantings（在宾语从句中作条件状语） 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
