A (2024·广东广州高二上期末) As a teacher for a decade, I find that college kids want to carve their routes and live out their journeys.But so many of them don’t know what they want to do—what major to choose? What career to pursue? What topic to write their papers on? More importantly, they wonder why any of these things really matters. 语篇解读　这是一篇议论文。作者就我们选择成为什么样的人阐述了自己的观点。 Ⅲ.主题语篇阅读 One of the best books I have read is Dr.Meg Jay’s The Defining Decade.Basically, Dr.Meg Jay explains one’s 20s have an enormous effect across years and even generations to come, in terms of careers, families, friends, and relationships.She states that our brain completes the second and last growth peak in our 20s as it rewires itself for true adulthood. From the time we are in primary school, people ask us what we want to be when we grow up.I once asked my friend’s eight-year-old the question and she said, “I’m just a kid; I have no way of knowing what I want to be when I’m an adult.” Maybe the questions should be: What means something to you? What makes you happy? What do you care about regardless of any rewards? This train of thought may benefit all. In a world of easy access, today’s students can find everything they need after a few clicks on the Internet.Sure, that’s great, quick and convenient.But there is something important missed in the hunt—persistence(坚持), patience, and concentration.So I’m grateful that when I was in college, I still had to visit the library to find the resources I needed to write a research paper.During this process, I reflected on what truly made me happy and what I genuinely cared about. My friend Brandon recently told me that he often woke up in the early morning and realized things he cared about were not what he devoted his life to, because he took the way that others considered good when he was in his 20s, instead of the way that was right for him.What you want to be when you grow up is something that may change throughout your life, but it’s likely that your passion and motivation will always come along. 1.What idea does Dr.Meg Jay express in her book? A.One’s twenties matter a great deal in one’s life. B.The brain is in its most active stage in our 20s. C.One’s career choice affects their family members. D.The old have a long-time influence on the young. √ 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Basically, Dr.Meg Jay explains one’s 20s have an enormous effect across years and even generations to come, in terms of careers, families, friends, and relationships.”可知，Meg Jay博士在书中表示一个人20多岁的时候对其一生意义重大。故选A。 解析 2.Why does the author include a series of questions in paragraph 3? A.To help people find out what they truly love. B.To call on people to make plans for the future. C.To encourage people to have a positive attitude. D.To warn people to learn life skills at an early age. √ 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Maybe the questions should be: What means something to you? What makes you happy? What do you care about regardless of any rewards? This train of thought may benefit all.”并结合上文提到人们常问的问题不能真正帮助孩子规划未来可知，作者提出这些问题是为了帮助人们找到他们真正喜欢的东西。故选A。 解析 3.What is the author’s attitude towards students’ turning to the Internet? A.Favorable. B.Optimistic. C.Objective. D.Uncaring. √ 观点态度题。根据第四段中的“Sure, that’s great, quick and convenient. But there is something important missed in the hunt—persistence(坚持), patience, and concentration.”可知，作者对学生向互联网寻求答案的态度是客观的，既给予肯定，也讲了弊端。故选C。 解析 4.What can we learn from Brandon’s story? A.Laziness in youth spells regret in old age. B.Our dreams keep changing throughout life. C.Our life journey is always full of uncertainties. D.We should follow our hearts and live a full life. √ 推理判断题。根据最后一段内容可知，Brandon的经历说明了别人认为好的路并不一定是适合自己的路，你想成为什么样的人可能会发生变化，但你的激情和动力会一直伴随着你。由此可知，作者通过Brandon的故事想说明：我们应该追随自己的内心，过充实的人生。故选D。 解析 B(此篇精读) (2024·广东佛山高二上期末) With growing awareness of the gender gap in STEM (science, technology, engineering, mathematics) fields, where women hold only 27% of jobs, Chinese researchers have explored a cause influencing women’s participation in STEM careers.They studied how teen girls can be influenced by their own peers who believe the inaccurate stereotype(刻板印象) that boys are better at math. 语篇解读　本文是一篇说明文。研究发现，中学女生在受到同龄人的数学性别刻板印象影响时，数学考试成绩会降低，这种影响甚至会持续到大学，影响女性的数学表现和自信心。 The study found that when surrounded by peers holding this stereotype, middle-school girls scored lower on math tests.This influence even persisted into college, impacting women’s math performance and self-confidence.The researchers suggest dealing with this issue during the middle school period to reduce the negative impact on women’s long-term STEM engagement. Middle school is considered a critical developmental stage where teens are forming a stronger sense of self separate from their parents.This change often makes teens more likely to be influenced by the opinions of their peers.It’s also a period when, objectively measured by standardized tests, girls on average have better math skills than boys.However, teens may not realize it. In some middle schools in China, the researchers studied the potential role of peer-pressure beliefs of the gendered math stereotype.In classrooms where the belief that boys’ natural ability in studying math is greater than that of girls’ was significantly higher than the standard, girls’ later performance on math tests was lower than the results for boys. Moreover, girls in these classrooms were less likely to participate in math-related out-of-class activities.They were also less likely to feel that their teachers paid attention to them and offered praise, leading to lower math-related self-confidence. The researchers conclude that preventing the harm from gender math stereotyping requires a change of the social environment for children and young adults, in addition to focusing on changing girls’ attitudes and choices. 5.What is the focus of the study? A.Inaccurate stereotypes of STEM. B.Women’s participation in STEM. C.Teen girls’ academic performance. D.Gender stereotype’s influence on girls. √ 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“They studied how teen girls can be influenced by their own peers who believe the inaccurate stereotype(刻板印象) that boys are better at math.”可知，研究的重点为性别刻板印象对女孩的影响。故选D。 解析 6.What fact may teens ignore according to paragraph 3? A.Girls do better in math than boys. B.Teens have strong self-confidence. C.Teens are experiencing a key stage. D.Girls are easily affected by their peers. √ 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“It’s also a period when, objectively measured by standardized tests, girls on average have better math skills than boys.However, teens may not realize it.”可知，青少年可能忽略了女孩的数学比男孩好这一事实。故选A。 解析 7.What may be the consequence for girls in classrooms with higher levels of gender stereotype? A.They score high in standardized tests. B.They are often praised by math teachers. C.They show low confidence in math tests. D.They take an active part in school’s math club. √ 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“In classrooms where...leading to lower math-related self-confidence.”可知，性别刻板印象水平较高的教室里的女孩可能会对数学考试缺乏信心。故选C。 解析 8. What is suggested for educators based on the study? A.Making math more accessible to girls. B.Asking girls to focus more attentively on class. C.Giving girls more instruction in math problems.
