A (2024·江苏南通高二上期末) I was visiting my parents in 2003 when my mom came out of their room with a puzzled look on her face.She’d been listening to the radio and heard an interview with a best-selling author of young adult fantasy novels.The woman’s name was Tamora Pierce, the same as a young student my mom had taught nearly four decades before. 语篇解读　这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者的母亲是一名普通的老师，但是她曾经教过的一个学生成了著名的作家，学生不止一次表达了对老师的感激，这也让作者对母亲有了更深的了解。 Ⅲ.主题语篇阅读 The Internet should be able to tell us.I found the author’s website quickly.She was a popular writer of books.I clicked on the biography link to scan for references to Burlingame Junior High, where my mom had worked, and my heart began to pound when I spotted it at the bottom of the first section.Here was confirmation that my mother had taught a now-famous writer! But my eyes came to a stop reading the next paragraph, in which Pierce described writing her first fiction as a sixth grader.“The next year, as I was still scribbling(乱写) my own stories, my English teacher, Mrs Jacobson, introduced me to The Lord of the Rings trilogy by J.R.R. Tolkien，” the biography read.“I got hooked on fantasy, and then on science fiction, and both made their way into my stories.” My mother’s name was Mary Jacobson. Within days, my dad had checked out all the Tamora Pierce books at the local library, and in one we found another surprise: a 1998 novel, which was dedicated(题献词) to “the teacher who shaped my life”.The teacher was Mary Jacobson.The dedication concluded, “A great teacher is above all other treasures.” This story made me see my mom differently.We knew she was a teacher,but we had no idea what kind of teacher she had been.She was just 24 when she taught Pierce.Until 2011, when she passed away, we did know who she was. 1.Why did the mother wear a puzzled look in paragraph 1? A.The interviewee was a best-selling writer. B.The interviewee may be her former student. C.The author visited the parents unexpectedly. D.She was listening to the radio when the author arrived. √ 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“She’d been listening...four decades before.”可知，第一段中母亲之所以带着困惑的表情是因为受访者可能是她以前的学生。故选B。 解析 2.What did the author know while searching for the information about Pierce? A.The pride the mother took in Pierce. B.The mother’s preference for fantasy. C.The mother’s influence on Pierce and her gratitude. D.The hardship Pierce had suffered to become a writer. √ 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“‘...my English teacher, Mrs Jacobson, introduced me to The Lord of the Rings trilogy by J.R.R.Tolkien，’ the biography read.‘I got hooked on fantasy, and then on science fiction, and both made their way into my stories.’ My mother’s name was Mary Jacobson.”可知，是作者的母亲让皮尔斯迷上了奇幻小说。根据第四段中的“the teacher who shaped my life”和“A great teacher is above all other treasures.”可知，皮尔斯非常感激作者的母亲。所以，在搜索皮尔斯的信息时，作者了解了母亲对皮尔斯的影响和她对母亲的感激。故选C。 解析 3.Which of the following can best describe Jacobson? A.Devoted and grateful. B.Caring and demanding. C.Inspiring and respectable. D.Sympathetic and intelligent. √ 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“‘...my English teacher, Mrs Jacobson, introduced me to The Lord of the Rings trilogy by J.R.R.Tolkien，’ the biography read.‘I got hooked on fantasy, and then on science fiction...’ ”以及第四段中的“the teacher who shaped my life”可推知，雅各布森是一名启发能力强、值得尊敬的好老师。故选C。 解析 4.What’s the suitable title of the passage? A.An Ordinary Teacher Shaping a Famous Writer B.A Woman Writer with Gratitude for Her Teacher C.Pierce：from a Student Writer to a Fantasy Queen D.To Honor My Mother：a Creator of Famous Writers √ 标题归纳题。结合全文并根据第四段中的“a 1998 novel, which was dedicated (题献词) to ‘the teacher who shaped my life’.The teacher was Mary Jacobson.The dedication concluded, ‘A great teacher is above all other treasures.’”可知，文章讲述了作者的母亲是一名普通的老师，但是她曾经教过的一个学生成了著名的作家，学生不止一次地感激老师影响了她的人生。故选A。 解析 B(此篇精读) (2025·浙江高二上期中) Do you know that the human brain doesn’t reach full maturity until people are in their mid-20s? Brains develop our emotions first and our capacity for reasoning second. 语篇解读　这是一篇说明文。本文讲述了人类大脑在20多岁中期才达到完全成熟，大脑首先发展我们的情绪，其次是推理能力。 Before the age of about 25, the brain relies heavily on the limbic system(大脑边缘系统), which is responsible for emotional responses, while the logical, decision-making part (known as the prefrontal cortex) is still in the process of developing.It’s not that the prefrontal cortex(前额皮质) doesn’t function at all for the first 25 years of life—rather, that it’s a work in progress. To understand how the mind works, it can be useful to know the roles that these two parts of the brain play.The limbic system processes sensory information—everything you see, smell, touch, taste, hear.When you sense danger, this translates to fear and will likely lead to action.It’s also the part of the brain involved in seeking out rewards and new experiences, which might be found through spending time with friends or doing exciting activities.Meanwhile, some of the important roles of the prefrontal cortex are to plan ahead, control impulsive(冲动的) behaviours, and drive social interaction and self-awareness.It might be helpful to think of the limbic system as the accelerator and the prefrontal cortex as the brake. Having a fully functioning accelerator when your brakes don’t quite work yet might seem like a recipe for disaster—and sometimes it can be.But your brain is evolving in this way for a good reason: to allow you to adapt to your environment.Scientists call this plasticity (可塑性).This special quality is what makes the teen years the best time to keep your options open, learn new skills, and to prepare for the future.In evolutionary terms, it’s extremely beneficial, but can also come with some challenges. Understanding more about the inner workings of the brain at different life stages can help you to better respond, communicate, and seek support when it’s needed.Plus, it can teach you to be nicer to yourself and let go of mistakes.It’s worth remembering that not everything you do is a fully conscious decision—some of it is heavily influenced by the way your developing brain works. 5.What is the function of the first paragraph? A.To set the background. B.To present a discovery. C.To introduce the topic. D.To express the purpose. √ 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Do you know that the human brain doesn’t reach full maturity until people are in their mid-20s？”和下文讲述的大脑的发育过程可知，第一段的作用是引入大脑发育这一话题。故选C。 解析 6.What is more likely to occur in teenagers and young adults? A.Higher levels of self-control. B.More frequent impulsive behaviours. C.More cautious risk assessment. D.Stronger long-term planning abilities. √ 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Before the age of about 25...the logical, decision-making part (known as the prefrontal cortex) is still in the process of developing.”和第三段中的“Meanwhile, some of the important roles of the prefrontal cortex are to plan ahead, control impulsive(冲动的) behaviours, and drive social interaction and self-awareness.”可知，在25岁之前，能控制冲动行为的前额皮质仍在发育中。所以青少年和年轻人更可能出现冲动的行为。故选B。 解析 7.What is mainly talked about in the last paragraph? A.Benefits of delayed brain maturation. B.Biological basis of adolescent risk-taking. C.Emotional functions of the limbic system. D.Value of understanding brain development. √ 段落大意题。文章最后一段说：了解大脑在不同生命阶段的内部运作方式可以帮助你更好地回应、沟通和在需要时寻求支持。此外，它还可以教你对自己更好，放下错误。值得记住的是，你所做的并不都是完全有意识的决定——其中一些受到你发育中的大脑的工作方式的强烈影响。由此可知，最后一段主要讲述了解大脑发育的价值。故选D。 解析 8.What can you infer from the passage? A.The prefrontal cortex doesn’t function for the first 25 years. B.The limbic system develops later than the prefrontal cortex. C.Sensory information is closely related to the prefrontal cortex. D.Immature decisions are acceptable during developmental years. √ 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Plus, it can teach you to be nicer to yourself and let go of mistakes.It’s worth remembering that not everything you do is a fully conscious decision—some of it is heavily influenced by the way your developing brain works.”可知，在大脑发育期间，不成熟的决定是可以接受的。故选D。 解析 1.maturity n.成熟→mature adj.成熟的 v.成熟→maturation n.成熟过程 2.capacity n.能力，才能 3.reasoning n.推理；论证→reason v.推理；推断→reasonable adj.合理的；公道的 4.in progress 在进行中 5.accelerator n.油门；加速器 6.in...terms 从……的角度来看 词汇积累 Before the age of about 25, the brain relies heavily on the limbic system, which is responsible for emotional responses, while the logical, decision-making part (known as the prefrontal cortex) is still in the process of developing. 分析：本句为并列复合句。while表示并列，意为“而，然而”。在前面一个分句中，which引导非限制性定语从句。 翻译：在大约25岁之前，大脑在很大程度上依赖负责情感反应的大脑边缘系统，而负责逻辑和决策的部分(即前额皮质)仍在发育中。 句式分析 With climate change continuing to worsen，our situation is beginning to feel increasingly serious. 语篇解读　这是一篇说明文。文章指出“技术乐观主义”试图用技术解决当前的气候问题，作者用电动汽车的例子来证明这种想法似乎是没用的，认为改变我们的社会运作方式以及人们的生活方式才是解决问题的关键所在。 Ⅳ.七选五阅读 A.People used to fall into this trap. B.So where should we look for answers instead? C.The modern world’s simple solution is technology. D.Moreover，they are more energy-intensive to produce. E.Unfortunately，this is an incredibly dangerous opinion to hold. F.There is no doubt that we are heading towards a greener future. G.Nevertheless，the truth is，we need a widespread change in our lifestyles. √ 1 Is it right? Maybe not. 根据上文可知，气候问题持续恶化，人类的处境开始变得越来越严峻。由此推知，人类可能会采取解决气候问题的办法。结合下文“Is it right？Maybe not.”和“Techno-optimism can be...current energy-intensive(耗能大的) lifestyle...”可知，人们试图依靠技术来解决气候问题的想法可能是错误的。C项“现代世界的简单解决方案就是技术”符合题意。故选C。 解析 Techno-optimism can be defined as a belief that future technologies will solve all of our current problems.This definition reinforces(强化) the idea that there’s no reason to panic or change our current energy-intensive(耗能大的) lifestyle. All society needs to do is look to green technology to work its magic. 2 A.People used to fall into this trap. B.So where should we look for answers instead? C.The modern world’s simple solution is technology. D.Moreover，they are more energy-intensive to produce. E.Unfortunately，this is an incredibly dangerous opinion to hold. F.There is no doubt that we are heading towards a greener future. G.Nevertheless，the truth is，we need a widespread change in our lifestyles. √ 根据上文可知，技术乐观主义认为未来的技术能解决所有问题，提出了“没有理由恐慌或改变我们当前的高耗能的生活方式”这种观点，结合下文内容可知，该观点有明显的局限性。E项“不幸的是，这是一个极其危险的观点”否定了这种观点，符合题意。故选E。 解析 One of the best examples of this optimistic misconception is the electric car.Despite being highly regarded as an eco-friendly way to get around，electric cars are not the end for the future of transport.Batteries in electric cars use chemical elements which we could be seeing a shortage of by mid-century. 3 Techno-optimism has led many to believe that if everyone just switched to driving electric vehicles，we would be making incredible steps towards sustainability. However，the reality is that the amount of resources and energy needed to produce enough electric vehicles for everyone is not even remotely sustainable. A.People used to fall into this trap. B.So where should we look for answers instead? C.The modern world’s simple solution is technology. D.Moreover，they are more energy-intensive to produce. E.Unfortunately，this is an incredibly dangerous opinion to hold. F.There is no doubt that we are heading towards a greener future. G.Nevertheless，the truth is，we need a widespread change in our lifestyles. √ 根据上文“One of the best examples...shortage of by mid-century.(这种乐观的误解的最好例子之一就是电动汽车。尽管电动汽车被认为是一种环保的出行方式，但它并不是未来交通的最终解决方案。电动汽车的电池使用的化学元素到本世纪中叶可能会短缺)”可知，上文提到了电动汽车的弊端。空处应继续对电动汽车的弊端进行陈述。D项“此外，它们的生产更耗能”符合题意。故选D。 解析 4 Investing in public transportation and moving away from individually owned vehicles.Producing fewer cars.Improving recycling practices of old batteries.The solutions we seek should not be rooted in new technology，but be about changing the way our society functions. A.People used to fall into this trap. B.So where should we look for answers instead? C.The modern world’s simple solution is technology. D.Moreover，they are more energy-intensive to produce. E.Unfortunately，this is an incredibly dangerous opinion to hold. F.There is no doubt that we are heading towards a greener future. G.Nevertheless，the truth is，we need a widespread change in our lifestyles. √ 根据下文“Investing in public transportation...our society functions.(投资公共交通，减少对私家车的依赖。生产更少的汽车，改善旧电池的回收利用方式。我们寻求的解决方案不应该植根于新技术，而应该在于改变我们社会的运作方式)”可知，作者认为改变社会的运作方式才是解决气候问题的办法。B项“那么，我们应该在哪里寻找答案呢”引出本段内容，下文是给出的具体建议。故选B。 解析 Techno-optimism puts too much emphasis on technology and not enough on what we can do right this minute.Unfortunately，people seem to like the picture that techno-optimism paints. 5 Until we are ready to face the need for a less complex life，we cannot make true progress towards sustainability.
