Before that you have to go to college. Yes, that's true. I think my mom will be a bit sad when I go to college, though i'm . sure he will. But all children have to grow up and move away someday. Anyway, think about how happy should be after you graduate . from college. That's true when I get a job and can really look after myself, you'll be so proud of me. 关注微信。公众号新教材英语，即可获取更多英语听力等教学资源。 Hi, Susan. I've just heard you're going to become a border like me. This is great news. Thanks can. But i'm not so sure the idea of becoming a border really worries me. but why I think I will be so much fun. Well, i've never been away from home, and i'm afraid I can't live on my own. Don't be afraid. Think of IT as preparation for university life and the way of learning to be independent. You can also turn to your friends, tutors or classmates for help. I suppose that's true, but i'm also worried that I might have a different routine to my roommates also, what if my roommates aren't very pleasant to live with? In my experience, it's a good idea to communicate openly with your room mates and find solutions to problems that suit all. Communication and compromise are important to group living. That's true. But here's another thing. I will have to follow a strict dorm schedule. I'm concerned that i'll no longer be able to hang out with my friends as much as I used to. Perhaps you could join some clubs. There are lots of clubs and activities after lessons, and you could make . new friends. That does sound exciting, but I suppose that I will miss my parents a lot. All borders feel like that at first. How about calling them and having video chats? And i'm sure the weekends and holidays will come around before you know IT. Thank you. You've really set my mind. that is, I think you're really like boarding. No matter what difficulties you might encounter when you look back, life as a border will be one of your most valuable memories. I hope so. I really want to make the most of my time at boarding school. Good luck with everything, and let me know if you have any more concerns. Thank you. I will. 关注微信公众号新教材英语，即可获取更多英语听力等教学资源。 Period 3 Using language(2)—Listening Growing up Unit 1 1 Ⅰ.Listen to the conversation on P7 and choose the best answer.(高考形式) 1.What is the relationship between the two speakers?

Growing up, I was virtually never a big fan of novels.My classmates would be crazy about the latest Harry Potter book, while my copy sat collecting dust on a shelf.Instead, I would choose to read through the reference books related to my academic fields for better grades.After I started graduate school, extracurricular reading didn’t appeal to me at all.I spent most of my time on campus digesting research papers and textbooks and my mind couldn’t handle processing fact-filled nonfiction books at home, too.So I knew that I needed to find a way to enjoy reading again. To help me stick with it, I made a New Year’s resolution: I would read two fiction books per month for the entire year.The result was an almost instant appreciation of fiction, along with many unexpected results including ones that have benefited my schoolwork. What surprised me the most was how much I learned.Some of the best books I read were historical fictional stories happening in a realistic historical setting.I learned about life in different countries, as well as struggles people there faced during difficult periods in their histories.The books have helped me build sympathy and understanding, with an unexpected benefit: I’ve started to think more deeply about the diversity of issues in the scientific community and could serve it, heart and soul. 1.What did the author do to wipe out the anxiety? A.He drowned it in chocolate. B.He conducted an experiment. C.He slept on the sofa leisurely. D.He escaped into a fantasy world. √ 细节理解题。根据第一段“...I amazingly longed to shut off my anxious thoughts.So after dinner...what I needed.”可知，作者消除自己焦虑的方法就是打开一本书，沉浸到一个幻想的世界之中。故选D。 解析 2.What does the author mean by the underlined part in paragraph 2? A.Reading novels was a waste of time. B.Reading a good book was time well spent. C.He was too busy to take good care of his books. D.The Harry Potter book wasn’t as good as expected. √ 句意理解题。根据画线句子下一句“Instead, I would choose to read through the reference books related to my academic fields for better grades.”可知，作者只会阅读与自己学科相关的参考书。由此可推知，作者觉得阅读小说是在浪费时间。故选A。 解析 3.How did the New Year’s resolution benefit the author? A.More sympathy went out to him. B.His moral values were strengthened. C.He learned much about religious diversity. D.He gained new insight into his academic fields. √ 推理判断题。第三段提到每月读两本小说的新年决心的结果之一是有益于作者的学业，结合最后一段中的“The books have...heart and soul.”可知，作者所阅读的书让他深入思考科学领域中事件的多样性，由此可推知，新年决心让作者对自己的学科有了新的见解和看法。故选D。 解析 4.What’s the best title of the text? A.Reading: a Lifelong Hobby B.The Power of Research Papers C.Novels: Love at Second Sight D.The Benefits of History Reading √ 标题归纳题。通读全文，根据第二段可知，作者以前只会阅读和自己学科相关的书籍，希望自己能取得更好的成绩，对小说并不感兴趣；根据第三段和最后一段内容可知，作者阅读小说之后有了许多意想不到的结果，才真正爱上了阅读小说。因此，C项(小说：二见钟情)适合作本文标题。故选C。 解析 B (2025·广东珠海高二上期中) For adults who have struggled with understanding new math homework or been surprised at how quickly kids can learn a second language, there is new evidence that shows kids can really learn things much faster than adults. 语篇解读　这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了研究发现孩子学习东西的速度比成年人快得多。 A study published in Current Biology finds that children and adults have different concentrations of a key brain messenger called gamma-aminobutyric acid, or GABA.This messenger slows down the brain by blocking specific signals in the body’s central nervous system.It also produces a calming effect and is thought to play a major role in controlling the overactivity of nerve cells associated with anxiety, stress and fear.All these contribute to the learning of new things. In the study, the researchers from Brown University used neuro-imaging techniques to examine visual perceptive(视觉感知的) learning in elementary school-aged children and adults.Participants were shown a number of different images and were later asked questions about them following the test. Visual learning caused an increase of GABA in children’s visual cortex, the area of the brain that processes visual information.However, GABA levels didn’t change in the adults who took the same visual tests.In addition, children participants kept that GABA increase for hours after training ended, while the concentrations of GABA remained the same in the adults studied. “In subsequent behavioral experiments, we found that children indeed learn more items within a given period of time than adults，” said Sebastian M.Frank, the co-author of the study.“Our results therefore point to GABA as a key player in making learning more efficient in children.” These results, the authors argue, should encourage teachers and parents to keep giving children opportunities to learn anything from riding a bike to playing an instrument throughout their childhood. The findings may also change neuro-scientists’ conception of brain maturity in children.“Although children’s brains are not yet fully mature and many of their behavioral and cognitive functions are not as efficient as in adults, children are not, in general, surpassed in their learning abilities by adults，” said study co-author Takeo Watanabe. 5.What’s the function of GABA? A.Send specific messages to the brain. B.Deal with complex math problems. C.Make the nervous system more active. D.Increase efficiency in learning new things. √ 细节理解题。根据第二段可知，发表在《当代生物学》杂志上的一项研究发现，儿童和成人大脑中一种名为γ-氨基丁酸(GABA)的关键信使的浓度不同。这种信使通过阻断身体中枢神经系统中的特定信号来减慢大脑的速度。它还具有镇静作用，被认为在控制与焦虑、压力和恐惧相关的神经细胞的过度活动方面发挥着重要作用。所有这些都有助于学习新事物。由此可知，GABA的功能是提高学习新事物的效率。故选D。 解析 6.What do we know about the children taking the visual test? A.They could remember more images than adults. B.Their learning abilities still needed to be improved. C.They were surpassed by adults in learning abilities. D.Their GABA concentrations kept increasing after training. √ 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“In addition, children participants kept that GABA increase for hours after training ended, while the concentrations of GABA remained the same in the adults studied.”可知，儿童参与者在训练结束后的数小时内GABA的浓度都在增加。故选D。 解析 7.How did the researchers do the research? A.By comparing participants’ reaction. B.By analyzing statistics. C.By collecting relative evidence. D.By conducting online survey. √ 细节理解题。根据第四段内容和第五段中的“In subsequent behavioral experiments, we found that children indeed learn more items within a given period of time than adults”可知，研究人员通过比较儿童和成人参与者的反应进行研究。故选A。 解析 8.What does Takeo Watanabe want to say in the last paragraph? A.Children are not mature in their behavior and cognition. B.It takes a long time for children’s brains to be fully mature. C.Children’s brain maturity does not dominate their learning abilities. D.Neuro-scientists don’t fully understand brain maturity in children. √ 推理判断题。最后一段中Takeo Watanabe说：“虽然儿童的大脑还没有完全成熟，他们的许多行为和认知功能还没有成年人那么高效，但总的来说，儿童的学习能力并没有被成年人超越。”由此可知，Takeo Watanabe想说的是儿童大脑的成熟度并不能支配他们的学习能力。故选C。 解析 Louis Pasteur was born on December 27,1822，in Dole，France，into a poor family. 语篇解读　本文是一篇人物传记。文章主要介绍了路易斯·巴斯德的生平、成就和贡献。 Ⅱ.完形填空 The French chemist and microbiologist made remarkable scientific 1 regarding the principles of vaccination(疫苗接种)，microbial fermentation，and pasteurization(巴氏灭菌法). 1.A.predictions B.discoveries C.methods D.performances √ prediction预测；discovery发现；method方法；performance表演。下文的“the principles of vaccination(疫苗接种)，microbial fermentation，and pasteurization(巴氏灭菌法)”指的是科学发现。故选B。 解析 The family was on a very tight 2 . 2.A.turn B.schedule C.relationship D.budget √ turn转变；schedule时间表；relationship关系；budget预算。根据空后的“However，his parents education and found support to send him to the best schools they could afford.”可推断，巴斯德家的经济条件并不好，即这个家庭的预算很紧张。故选D。 解析 However，his parents 3 education and found support to send him to the best schools they could afford. 3.A.valued B.overestimated C.sharpened D.assigned √ value重视，珍视；overestimate高估；sharpen使尖锐；assign分配。根据空后的“found support to send him to the best schools they could afford”可推断，他的父母很重视教育，所以送他去他们能供得起的最好的学校。故选A。 解析 Pasteur had a 4 for painting and drawing. 4.A.demand B.temptation C.passion D.inspiration √ demand要求；temptation诱惑；passion热情；inspiration灵感。根据下文“When he realized that art was to earn a living，he changed to .”可知，巴斯德对艺术充满热情。故选C。 解析 When he realized that art was 5 to earn a living，he changed to 6 . 5.A.unavoidable B.unlikely C.unexpected D.uneventful 6.A.geography B.arithmetic C.politics D.chemistry √ √ 5.unavoidable无法避免的；unlikely不大可能发生的；unexpected意外的；uneventful平凡的。根据上文可知，他家经济条件并不好，所以此处指他意识到靠艺术谋生是不太可能的。故选B。 6.geography地理；arithmetic算术；politics政治；chemistry化学。根据上文“The French chemist and microbiologist made remarkable scientific regarding the principles of vaccination(疫苗接种)，microbial fermentation，and pasteurization(巴氏灭菌法).”可知，他后来成了一名化学家和微生物学家，所以此处指他从艺术转向化学。故选D。 解析 He was not a(n) 7 student，but he worked very hard once he put his mind to it. 7.A.considerate B.intelligent C.lifelong D.intimate √ considerate体贴的；intelligent聪明的；lifelong终身的；intimate亲密的。根据下文“but he worked very hard once he put his mind to it”以及“It took him three tries to pass the exam to get into his school.”可知，他并不是一个很聪明的学生。故选B。 解析 It took him three tries to pass the exam to get into his 8 school. 8.A.desired B.approved C.engaged D.varied √ desired渴望的；approved得到正式认可的；engaged使用中的；varied各种各样的。根据上文“It took him three tries to pass the exam”以及常理可知，此处指他通过考试进入了自己心仪的学校。故选A。 解析 Later，he owed his success to his 9 . 9.A.fame B.routine C.perseverance D.blessing √ fame名声，名望；routine例行公事；perseverance毅力；blessing祝福。根据下文“He impressed senior scientists with his hard work and willpower”可推测，他认为自己的成功源自自己的毅力。故选C。 解析 He impressed senior scientists with his hard work and willpower in 10 some of the most difficult scientific problems. 10.A.fundraising B.tackling C.motivating D.occupying √ fundraise筹款；tackle处理；motivate激励；occupy占据。根据空后的“some of the most difficult scientific problems”可知，他在解决一些最困难的科学问题上的努力和毅力给资深科学家留下了深刻的印象。故选B。 解析 Pasteur’s 11 research was completely self-funded. 11.A.overnight B.joint C.monthly D.early √ overnight一夜之间的；joint联合的；monthly每月的；early早期的。根据下文的“Eventually，he was able to establish the Pasteur Institute to and prevent the causes of disease，particularly rabies.”可知，空处指的是巴斯德早期的研究情况。故选D。 解析 His wife，Marie， 12 supported his work and acted as his assistant in the lab. 12.A.actively B.objectively C.humbly D.nobly √ actively积极地；objectively客观地；humbly谦卑地；nobly崇高地。根据下文“acted as his assistant in the lab”可推测，他的妻子积极支持其工作。故选A。 解析 As he became famous gradually，he was able to 13 research positions at more great institutions. 13.A.turn down B.cope with C.work out D.take up √ turn down拒绝；cope with处理；work out解决；take up从事。根据空前的“As he became famous gradually”以及空后的“research positions at more great institutions”可推测，随着他越来越出名，他能够在更大的机构担任研究职位。故选D。 解析 Eventually，he was able to establish the Pasteur Institute to 14 and prevent the causes of disease，particularly rabies. 14.A.dedicate B.treat C.find D.commit √ dedicate致力于；treat对待；find找到；commit犯(罪或错)，承诺。根据空前的“he was able to establish the Pasteur Institute to”和空后的“prevent the causes of disease，particularly rabies”可推测，他建立了巴斯德研究所以发现和预防疾病的起因。故选C。 解析 He was highly respected and won just about every award 15 in his field.As a consequence，Pasteur greatly advanced the science of his day. 15.A.available B.memorable C.favorable D.knowledgeable √ available可得到的，可使用的；memorable难忘的；favorable有利的；knowledgeable博学的。根据空前的“He was highly respected and won just about every award”和空后的“in his field”可推测，他赢得了他所在领域能有的所有奖项。故选A。 解析 本课结束 null Other 130251.43 null Other 105563.305 $
