At the end of their useful life, most plastic products are thrown away. 1 This causes problems, especially for the world’s oceans. Scientists are working to solve the problems. But in the meantime, here are four things you can do to reduce plastic waste now. Quit using plastic bags. Instead, take your own reusable shopping bags to the store. People use a trillion (1,000 billion) plastic bags worldwide every year. About 10 percent are used in the United States alone. That’s almost one bag per American per day. Meanwhile, a Dane uses four single-use bags per year on average. 2 Today, other countries either make customers pay for plastic bags, or have banned them completely. Skip the straw (吸管). Today, around 8.3 billion plastic straws pollute the world’s beaches. We should do something to turn over the situation. So when you order a drink, you can say no to the straw. 3 In 2018, Seattle became the first major US city to stop using plastic straws, and many other cities are set to follow its example. 4 Buy bar soap instead of liquid soap in plastic containers. Don’t buy fruit or vegetables on plastic packaging. In the United Kingdom, leaders are calling for supermarkets to have plastic-free areas. They also want to tax plastic take-out containers. Recycle. 5 But it is possible to recycle most plastic bottles and milk or juice boxes. Today, Norway recycles 97 percent of its plastic bottles. How? Machines at most supermarkets take the bottles and give a refund of up to 32 cents per bottle. A. Avoid plastic packaging. B. Set up plastic-free areas. C. We can’t recycle all plastic products. D. We can’t stop recycling plastic bottles. E. You can also bring your own reusable one. F. In 1993, Denmark was the first country to place a tax on plastic bags. G. These plastics then break down into smaller pieces that can last for centuries. Passage 2 (25-26高二上·浙江杭州西湖区杭师大附中·期中)How to Have Better, Deeper Conversations In today’s fast-paced world, distractions are everywhere, especially from our phones. When catching up with friends, it can be frustrating when their attention shifts away. 1 It’s a skill that can be cultivated. Here are three key ways to enhance your listening ability. Avoid distractions. To be an effective listener, start by putting away your phone and other distractions. Research shows that multitasking distracts our attention and hampers the quality of our conversations. As musician Hishikesh Hirway says, “Trying to listen to one song while singing another in your head is impossible.” 2 Reflect on what you hear. Active listening is more than just being silent. 3 Phrases like “What I hear you saying is” can confirm your understanding. Also, resist the urge to share your own stories immediately; keep the conversation centered on them. 4 Nonverbal communication plays a vital role in conversations. Maintaining eye contact, having an open posture, and nodding can show that you’re engaged. These small gestures help the other person feel valued and encourage them to continue sharing. Improving your listening skills takes practice. 5 As Hirway advises, “Let the other person know you’re listening and stay focused.” A. Use nonverbal cues. B. Look up to show interest. C. So to build stronger relationships, active listening is essential. D. But with a bit more effort, you can foster deeper conversations. E. Engage by asking questions or summarizing what the other person says F. Therefore, during conversations, focus fully on the person in front of you. G. Taking notes while listening can help you remember the conversation better. Passage 3 (25-26高二上·浙江杭州学军中学·期中)I have a drawer full of letters to Santa. Each year my children would write up their Christmas wish lists. They were polite requests for the latest game or toy. As the children got older, they would give Santa some hints(提示)on where to buy their presents. 1 Those letters taught my children a valuable lesson about writing: It has a purpose. Sometimes our purpose is to achieve something;other times it may be to entertain, inform, or persuade. 2 And when writing doesn’t seem to have any purpose or get any kind of meaningful response, then it can be hard to get excited about doing it. Christmas is a great time of year for children to communicate with others through writing. When children write for real audiences and real purposes, they can learn to choose their words accordingly. 3 You write “Dear Santa” because you don’t know him personally and you want to show him respect. 4 Texting, online messaging, live chats while playing video games all mean that they are constantly producing written messages. However, because they are usually writing to family and friends, they use informal language most of the time. There is nothing wrong with this kind of writing. It suits the audience and the purpose and gets the job done. 5 This type of writing won’t be rewarded by the school examiner, nor by a future employer or a potential client. The very best communicators are those who know how to adjust their language to match their audience. A. It isn’t that these young people can’t write. B. But it is always purposeful-or at least it should be. C. The age of pen-and-paper letter writing may have passed. D. As a result, each year they received something they wanted. E. You write “Hi Nanna and Pop” because you are close to them. F. As technology develops, young people are writing more than they ever have. G. But if this is the only kind of writing young people do, it will cause problems. Passage 4 (25-26高二上·浙江杭州外国语学校·期中)Many people are feeling “phone-overwhelmed”, yearning for a “simpler time” when smartphones didn’t exist. Smartphones definitely aren’t “evil” or “bad,” but people of all ages are struggling to find a “balance”. What’s the solution? Actually you don’t necessarily need to throw your brand new iPhone into the toilet or promise to never, ever use it again. Things don’t have to be that black or white. 1 Here are a few simple steps: Make a plan. To earn a college degree, you select specific classes happening at specific times and you attend them. This keeps you on track, moving steadily towards your goal. 2 Choose specific times to check texts, social media updates, and so on, and then do your best to stick to the plan. Create phone-routines that help you to create the kind of day (and life) that you want. Savor (细品) the sound of silence. If your phone is continually bleeping and pinging every time “something happens”, it’s going to be tough for you to stay focused — you’ll be tempted to check in and see what’s up! This may seem obvious, but turn off those noisy notifications. 3 If you’re concerned that you might miss something important, you can create a “call filter” so that certain people’s calls come through even if your phone is on “silent.” That way you can rest easy, knowing you won’t miss something truly urgent. 4 For many couples and families, dinnertime is the only time of the day when everyone is gathered together in one place. Make dinner a special, sacred time. No phones at the table. If people get restless or bored, strike up an interesting conversation by playing a question game. Even if you’re dining alone, set your laptop or phone aside and savor your meal without techie distractions. Ask yourself, “What am I desiring right now?” When you feel the urge to check your phone, and you don’t really “need” to, pause for moment. 5 Do you crave (渴望) company? Do you want some excitement or entertainment? Inspiration? Whatever you crave, see if you can find a non-phone-related way to give it to yourself. Go for a jog, or pop by a friend’s house to say “hi”. After satisfying your cravings out in the “real world,” you may discover that whatever is going on in the “phone-world” just isn’t that compelling anymore. A. Take some phone-free time. B. Make dinnertime a phone-free zone. C. Check in with yourself and see what you want. D. See how it feels to move freely without your phone. E. You can apply that same-logic to your smartphone usage. F. You can take specific steps to create healthier, more balanced relationship with your phone. G. Better yet, turn the volume on your phone down to zero or power-down your phone completely. Passage 5 (25-26高二上·浙江北仑中学·期中)As December starts, so does party season. Whether it’s the office Christmas party or New Year’ Eve, socializing fills many people with fear. If all the parties over the festive period stressed you out, the first thing to say is you’re not alone. 1 The reason for this is the way we evolved. 2 That’s why we have developed instincts (本能) to care a lot about social stuff, are so concerned about things like reputation and status, and are afraid of making a fool of ourselves or being left out. But don’t forget, social occasions are an opportunity, not just a threat. 3 So as an initial step towards reducing your anxiety, try boosting your hopefulness about these events. For example, remind yourself of occasions — however rare they might be — when things went well and you had a fun time or you made new friends. 4 Rather than waiting for the obligations (义务) to roll in and hang over you like a dark cloud, be clear about which ones you really want. If there are friends you’d love to go with, don’t wait for them to ask you — reach out and make it happen. Indeed, excessive self-focus is one of the main drivers of social anxiety. Constantly monitoring your own behaviour and words will fuel your nerves and lead you to act more awkwardly. 5 You can even give yourself another if-then plan to help with it: if I find myself being self-focused, then I’ll make a conscious effort to focus on what someone is saying or wearing. Like all challenges in life we find difficult, socializing gets easier with practice. A. Next, be a little strategic and active. B. Don’t overestimate how people judge you. C. Your friends probably like you more than you realize. D. You can focus your attention outwards to reduce anxiety. E. Actually, feeling nervous about socializing is incredibly common. F. Throughout history, humans needed to work in groups to stay alive. G. They’re a chance to create shared memories, bond and have fun together. Passage 1 (25-26高二上·浙江衢州五校·期中)Many people have fallen into the habit of neglecting to express gratitude to others and failing to take moments to appreciate the invisible yet wonderful aspects of life. 1 However, there are several effective tips to help cultivate a habit of gratitude. Practice mindfulness. It is highly beneficial for expressing gratitude, as it enables individuals to fully engage with and appreciate the present moment, according to Michelle Maidenberg, a therapist in private practice in Harrison, New York, who also teaches a graduate course in Mindfulness Practice at New York University. 2 Keep a gratitude journal. 3 The idea is that you’ll get in the habit of noticing those things you appreciate more regularly throughout the day and more frequently. 4 Notice the things that are around you that are important to you or meet your values. For example, if you love nature, take a minute to enjoy when the sun is out. Give back. Practicing gratitude can also be giving back through charity work and service for others. Gratitude isn’t just about speaking, it’s in the doing. One example is to look for the good that can come out of a crisis, such as collecting supplies for people affected by a hurricane. Reframe. Reframing your mindset is a powerful way to bring more gratitude into your life. 5 For example, instead of saying or thinking “I have to go to work today,” reframe it as “I get to go to work today and use my skills and talents.” A. So practicing mindfulness can help. B. Write a thank-you note to someone every week. C. Take the time to appreciate what you truly enjoy. D. Toward the end of the day write down your daily gratitude. E. And you do this by changing the way you speak or the way you think. F. Avoid discussing negative experiences to focus only on positive things. G. This lack of appreciation harms relationships and blocks life’s small pleasures. Passage 2 (25-26高二上·浙江宁波鄞州中学·期中)Finding My True Path My journey began with struggle. After graduating with psychology and art degrees, I expected to become a psychologist or artist. 1 Holding two degrees, I realized I was exhausted from forcing myself into roles that never fit — like wearing shoes two sizes too small. 2 I came to accept my stress limits after repeated burnout. Albert Einstein’s words hit hard: expecting different results from repeated failures is unwise. I stopped wasting energy on unsustainable paths I didn’t truly want. My compass reset: Only pursue what I can sustain and truly value. It was during this period of reflection that a long-buried passion quietly resurfaced — writing. When I shared this with Elena, an artist friend, her eyes lit up. “True passion turns discipline into joy, never duty.” she emphasized. 3 I realized true passion is written in the soul; when accepted, regular practice flows naturally, becoming the true path to mastery. Fueled by this clarity, I took concrete steps. I carved out precious, daily writing time, starting small and manageable. 4 Then came the real test: when a high-paying job demanded overtime that would steal my writing time, I firmly declined. It wasn’t sacrifice (牺牲); it was claiming my truth. I wrote with focus I never knew in offices. Making space for what mattered transformed everything. Regular writing brought peace and direction. Though money remains a necessity, working with passion unlocks hidden doors within. Purpose isn’t found in distant dreams. 5 When you swim in the right direction, the stream of life will carry you where you’re meant to be. A. These words struck me deeply. B. This requires exceptional talent. C. It grows through daily chosen actions. D. Years of exhaustion became my wake-up call. E. I landed a dream job as a school mental health adviser. F. This meant a daily routine of putting down 500 words. G. The reality was years of bouncing from one office job to another. Passage 3 (25-26高二上·浙江台金七校联考·期中)How to Stop Worrying About What Other People Think of You If you want to be your best and perform at a high level, fear of people’s opinions may be holding you back. Many people feel panicked before speaking in public, sharing their ideas in meetings, or even walking into a room full of strangers. 1 The good news is that you don’t have to be controlled by it. There are practical steps to weaken its influence. The first step is to replace negative thoughts with positive self-talk. Guide yourself toward confidence-building statements such as “I’ve prepared well” or “I have valuable ideas to share.” 2 Taking a few deep breaths also helps to calm your body and send a signal of safety to your brain. Another strategy lies in cultivating greater self-awareness. Most of us merely have a vague idea of who we are. 3 By identifying your values and shaping a personal philosophy, you’ll feel less pressure to meet everyone else’s expectations. 4 Begin with small steps that feel authentic yet slightly bold. This could be sharing an unpopular idea in a meeting, dancing freely at a party, or simply saying “no” to a request that upsets you. The goal is to prove to yourself that expressing your true self is not only safe but empowering. Each time you do this, you strengthen a self-image rooted in courage rather than fear, making you less likely to be influenced by external judgments. Finally, not every voice deserves your attention. Create a short list of trusted individuals whose opinions are consistent with your values and who understand the person you want to become. 5 A. But that is often not enough. B. Another vital method is to face social discomfort. C. These statements shift your focus to your own strengths. D. This fear of social disapproval may considerably harm your potential. E. A powerful way forward is to accumulate evidence of your own courage. F. Therefore, learning to reframe this anxiety as excitement can be a powerful tool G. In doing so, you can block the distracting noises and stay focused on what really matters. Passage 4 (25-26高二上·浙江卓越高中联盟-11月·期中)After hours of cooking and arranging the table, your goal is simple: to create an unforgettable dining experience for your guests. But success isn’t just about fresh ingredients or cooking skills. 1 Colour’s influence starts with the first glance. 2 The brain processes colour information and links it to taste, making us judge the same dish as delicious, average, or unappealing. So, making the food visually attractive is key, as guests will assume it tastes as good as it looks. For picky eaters, bowl colour is crucial. 3 They often find meals in red or blue bowls saltier than in white ones. A red bowl can also make them hesitant to try new dishes, and they might even refuse food if the bowl’s colour doesn’t suit them. Choosing the right tableware colour is top priority here. White plates are usually a safe choice, but avoid them with pale foods, which will look tasteless. They work well with vibrant dishes like salads or roasted meats, making the food’s colours stand out. For desserts, white plates enhance sweetness and flavor intensity. 4 Black plates, for example, can make food seem saltier and larger in portion. This means dark tableware needs careful consideration of the dish’s flavor and portion size. On the contrary, bright plates add creativity and highlight less colorful foods but can go wrong. 5 matching the plate’s colour too closely to the food can make portions seem smaller, as everything blends. Understanding colour psychology lets you turn a simple meal into a memorable experience — all through smart tableware choices. It allows you to guide your guests’ perceptions subtly, ensuring that each dish not only tastes wonderful but also feels perfectly suited to the moment. A. Dark plates have more varied effects. B. They prefer simple tableware without any patterns. C. The wrong bright shade makes food look artificial. D. That initial visual impression brings about a chain reaction. E. Using the wrong colour can ruin the overall dining mood. F. Their reactions to tableware colours are often more sensitive. G. The colour of tableware like plates, shapes how guests feel about the food. Passage 5 (25-26高二上·浙江环大罗山·期中)Why we enjoy fear: the science of a good scare The thrill of a frightening film can feel incredibly delightful — and mild horror, say researchers, can also help develop lasting psychological toughness. Palms sweat, heartbeat quickens, muscles tense. 1 Is this just the relief of having survived — or is it something more? Fear is an ancient emotion and scary stories are rooted in human history. In early societies, scary tales were used to teach children about dangers they might encounter. 2 A study found that horror fans were mentally tougher. “They have, to some extent, been exposed to similar scenes and can draw on that experience to face new, uncertain realities.” says Malmdorf-Andersen. 3 To investigate the relationship between enjoyment and fear, Malmdorf-Andersen studied a group of people who went to a haunted house (鬼屋). The findings indicated that humans don’t like being too far from their normal physiological state. 4 “There might be a sweet spot between fear and enjoyment.” says Malmdorf-Andersen. “At that spot, a flood of fear quickly followed by relief results in the release of feel-good chemicals in the brain rewarding you with a sudden rush of intense delight.” 5 We all have a unique sense of what we find scary — what can be a thrill for one person can be truly terrifying for another. So dare to be scared — but just the right amount. A. However, keep in mind that everyone is different. B. Instead, they do enjoy being just a little bit out of their comfort zone. C. Today, what draws people to watch a good scare? D. When fear dies down, we can be left with feelings of pleasure. E. This indicates that enjoyment of fear makes sense if you look at it as a “form of play”. F. As a matter of fact, they prefer to stay in their comfort zones. G. They are the signs to fight the dangers. Passage 6 (25-26高二上·浙江合作组织-11月·期中)Pets are an important part of our lives, staying with us and providing unconditional love. We find so much joy with them. 1 . But some useful tips may help you get through the loss of a beloved pet. 2 . The death of your pet may be a heavy blow to you. You may experience a range of feelings, from sadness to anger, guilt to despair for a long time. Our sadness is a proof to how much we love our pets. It’s important to give yourself as much time as you need to recover. Talk to a sympathetic listener. 3 , so it’s not surprising that many people see the loss of their pets as comparable to losing human friends or relatives. For many, talking to a sympathetic listener can help them accept their loss. Seek help from those who understand or have experienced your emotions if necessary. Consider a ceremony. The love for your pets never has to end. They can live on in your heart and memory forever. Although you miss them deeply, it can be helpful to honour them and celebrate the wonderful time you spent together. Many people choose to hold some sort of ceremony. 4 . You might have a simple and personal ceremony between family members or a bigger, more celebratory occasion that involves a wider circle of friends. For some of us, having a larger ceremony is a way to express how much a pet is a central part of daily life. 5 . A. Recover with Dr. Time’s help B. Beat the heavy blow with confidence C. That’s why we feel deep sorrow when a pet dies D. But there is no one-size-fits-all response to death and loss E. Pets are increasingly viewed as important family members F. Pets, as everybody knows, help their owners get rid of loneliness G. Making photo books of your pets can be another way of remembering them Passage 7 (25-26高二上·浙江浙南名校联盟-11月·期中)Offering advice isn’t easy. You may feel pressured, especially if you’ve accidentally given unhelpful advice before. But these tips will help you become skilled at it soon! Take time to think about the issue if you can. Spend a day or a few hours exploring its possible solutions. You may even ask someone more knowledgeable for advice. However, most people need immediate help when they ask for advice. 1 Talk them through the difficulties. Talk about the hard parts of their situation and why they’re problematic. 2 Something they see as an impassable barrier might be easy to overcome with an outside perspective. For example: “You want to join the school play but worry it’s too hard. What’s stopping you? Memorizing lines? Fear of performing in front of others?” Help them evaluate the problem from an outside angle. People often miss the whole situation or solutions because they focus on small problems. 3 From your perspective, point out details they’ve missed. If a friend worries a handmade party gift isn’t “fancy enough,” note unique items get more compliments than expensive ones. 4 Guide them through their options, then suggest new ones. Don’t let them reject options quickly—weigh all fairly. If they dismiss an option, find the real reason; they may object based on wrong ideas. For example: “You want better grades but worry about time. Try a study schedule, ask teachers for help, or join a study group?” Share any information you have. After discussing options, share your experience or what to expect. This helps them clarify feelings about options. 5 Remember to avoid bias and judgment in your words. Also, know when to be firm or kind—most need encouragement, but sometimes honesty is key. Finally, stress you can’t control the future: you can’t guarantee results, but you’ll support them. A. Open them up to all their options. B. Help them step back by looking at the big picture. C. List each option and then compare its good and bad points. D. This helps them break down big problems into small steps. E. It will also help them feel more confident about their final choice. F. So you must ask other experts for more detailed suggestions right away. G. So you might have to respond to the best of your ability and follow up later. Passage 8 (25-26高二上·浙江G5联盟-11月·期中)Poetry, with its rhythmic language and layered meanings, invites readers to explore emotions, ideas, and beauty beyond the literal. To fully engage with a poem, consider these methods to deepen your appreciation and understanding. Read aloud for rhythm and sound 1 Read the poem aloud slowly. Notice the rhythm, rhymes, or repeating sounds. For example, Edgar Allan Poe’s The Raven uses a tense beat, while Langston Hughes’ Dreams has a gentle flow. Do they sound cheerful, sad, or urgent? The “music” of a poem often mirrors its mood. 2 Understanding a poem’s historical, cultural, or biographical context enriches interpretation. It will help you a lot to find out when the poem was written or what the poet’s life was like. But don’t stress — even a quick Google search can add meaning. Accept confusion Poems don’t always have one right explanation. 3 Maybe Shakespeare’s Sonnet 18 is both a love poem and a joke about clichés (陈词滥调). Discuss with classmates — different views make poems more interesting! Let uncertainty spark curiosity. Connect the poem to your life Let your emotions guide your understanding. If a line reminds you of a personal experience, write down your thoughts or share them with a friend. 4 Poetry isn’t just about analysis — it’s about feeling and imagination. Appreciating poetry is both an art and a practice — requiring attention to form, context, and personal reflection. As Eliot wrote, poetry “communicates before it is understood”, inviting us to return, rethink, and rediscover its magic endlessly. 5 A. Poems are meant to be heard. B. Learn the background of the poem. C. Compare poems by different authors. D. Poetry is alive when it speaks to you. E. Practice memorizing your favorite lines. F. If a line feels puzzling, write down your guesses. G. Grab a poem, read it aloud, and let yourself enjoy the magic of it. Passage 1 (25-26高二上·浙江浙东北ZDB联盟·期中)When something goes wrong, do you tend to bounce back or fall apart? When you have resilience (恢复力), you have the inner strength that helps you rebound from a setback or challenge. 1 Here are some skills to help you develop resilience. Realize it’s normal. Less than 20 percent of people successfully achieve their goal the first time around. It’s normal and expected for setbacks to occur. 2 Knowing this, it’s important to anticipate that the main task will be how to effectively manage the setback when it arises. Learn from the past. 3 Think about what has helped you through tough times. You can even write about past events in a journal to help you see the patterns of how you behave and to help guide you in the future. 4 Tend to your own needs and feelings. Do activities and hobbies you enjoy. Include physical activity in your daily routine. Get plenty of sleep and make bedtime rituals. Eat a healthy diet. Practice how to manage stress. Try ways to relax, such as yoga, meditation, guided imagery, deep breathing or prayer. Take action. Don’t ignore your problems. 5 It can take time to recover from a major setback, trauma or loss. But know that your life can improve if you work at it. A. Take care of yourself. B. Make every day have meaning. C. Think of how you’ve coped with troubles in the past. D. Connect with others by joining a faith or spiritual group. E. Instead, figure out what you need to do, make a plan and take action. F. In other words, it’s not about whether a challenge will happen, but when. G. If you lack resilience, you might get stuck on problems or feel like a victim. Passage 2 (25-26高二上·浙江浙江省金砖高中联盟-11月·期中)When you’re exhausted, the thought of putting on gym clothes and pushing yourself to work out can feel impossible. 1 . A new fitness trend has given a fresh name to these super low-intensity (低强度) activities: “zone zero” exercise. 2 . It generally refers to any activity in which your heart rate stays below half of its maximum capacity, such as taking an slow walk after dinner, going for an easy bike ride, playing with your kids or doing light housework. 3 . If you spend most of your time sitting, even adding a modest amount of movement to your day can help to improve your health. Over time, moving more step by step and at gradually higher intensities can improve your balance, muscle strength and endurance, too. Some studies suggest that people who are completely inactive face a significantly higher death rate compared with those who move slightly more. If zone zero activity is the only movement in your routine, the experts recommended incorporating (融入) it as often as possible throughout your day. 4 . Zone zero shouldn’t replace more intense exercise. However, if you regularly exercise at moderate or high intensities, zone zero training can be a useful complement but not a substitute (替代). 5 . But on rest days, it can be a worthwhile form of active rest or recovery. Don’t overcomplicate it. Giving the activities of everyday life a seemingly formal name may motivate some people, especially those who have felt excluded from more intense fitness spaces. But the key point is to increase your daily movement in whatever way feels manageable and sustainable. A. Less active people may benefit more from zone zero B. It can also be a helpful start to more intense exercise C. But a casual walk or a good stretch might not seem out of reach D. Exercise such as running with a group helps you to be more social E. Exercise requiring more effort will lead to greater fitness benefits F. Zone zero training is meant to be so easy that it feels almost effortless G. The benefits of physical activity go far beyond just physical fitness Passage 3 (25-26高二上·浙江9+1联盟-11月·期中)How to Do Shadow Work Do you ever ask yourself, “Why did I do that?” or “Why did I say that?” Chances are, if you’ve done something out of character, it’s because of your Shadow — the personality traits and thoughts you wish you didn’t have, namely, your “darker” side. So, is there anything we can do to help? Absolutely! That’s where Shadow work comes in. 1 . Here are some tips on how to practice it. Take a step back and look at your life objectively. 2 . Then ask yourself, “Why did that get to me? Why did I feel that way? What triggered that behavior or emotion?” Answering these questions will help you recognize behavioral patterns and feelings. 3 . Healing takes time, but progress won’t be made unless you’re completely honest with yourself. We know pulling back the curtain on your most undesirable traits is more than difficult, but you can do it. Know that even if the truth is hard to swallow, you’re learning from it, and it’s leading you to become the best version of yourself. Question your reactions. Pause, reflect, and understand why you feel a certain way before you instinctively react. If you feel like you’re about to judge someone or make a rude comment, stop and question, “What triggered me to think this?” 4 . Acknowledge, understand, and forgive your insecurities. Since you are aware of the impacts of your “darker” side, it’s time to give yourself space to move on. Life is all about change; you’re expected to change with it, but don’t be afraid to question those changes.

Write your shadow a letter C. then make peace with yourself D. integrate them into your whole self E. Imagine you’ re a bystander in your own life F. This encourages positive thoughts and actions G. It’s the act of facing and handling your darker parts Passage 4 (25-26高二上·浙江浙里特色联盟-11月·期中)When I was a kid, my siblings (兄弟姐妹) and I were not allowed to say “I’m bored.” 1 I always assumed my parents made this rule to spare themselves from hearing us complain, but now I wonder if it had deeper historical roots. 2 For a long time, it has been viewed as an unpleasant, even wrong feeling. In ancient times, if someone showed the signs of boredom, they were wrong of “acedia,” a feeling of being apart that was seen as rude to the world and its creator. The growth of factories and time-saving devices only strengthened our wish to use time well. 3 Many parents try to keep their children from getting bored, either to stop complaints or because they think boredom wastes a chance to get ahead. None of these attitudes toward boredom strike me as healthy or beneficial. We need to move past our fear of boredom and start to see it as an unavoidable, necessary, and even advantageous experience. 4 It is a very unpleasant (and short) state that often pushes us to try new ideas. When we take away children’s boredom by giving them instant and shallow activities, we greatly lower their chances of learning new and challenging things well. 5 Instead, we should trust that children will find ways to amuse themselves — and maybe even learn to accept boredom as a gift, a chance to think, to create, to discover. As we learn to sit with boredom, we may find that it is not our enemy but our helper, something we need for a life of meaning and invention. A. Boredom, at its best, brings creativity. B. As a culture, we have a bad relationship with boredom. C. Today, we continue to view boredom with strong dislike. D. Schools should add more creative classes to prevent boredom. E. We should not fill every minute of our kids’ days with activities. F. If we were, we were instantly given a task, so we learned to avoid it. G. Modern technology has made boredom a rare experience for children. / 学科网(北京)股份有限公司 $ 专题05 阅读理解(七选五) Passage 1 (25-26高二上·浙江S9联盟-11月·期中)We use plastics to make many things, from medical equipment to TVs to food packaging. At the end of their useful life, most plastic products are thrown away. 1 This causes problems, especially for the world’s oceans. Scientists are working to solve the problems. But in the meantime, here are four things you can do to reduce plastic waste now. Quit using plastic bags. Instead, take your own reusable shopping bags to the store. People use a trillion (1,000 billion) plastic bags worldwide every year. About 10 percent are used in the United States alone. That’s almost one bag per American per day. Meanwhile, a Dane uses four single-use bags per year on average. 2 Today, other countries either make customers pay for plastic bags, or have banned them completely. Skip the straw (吸管). Today, around 8.3 billion plastic straws pollute the world’s beaches. We should do something to turn over the situation. So when you order a drink, you can say no to the straw. 3 In 2018, Seattle became the first major US city to stop using plastic straws, and many other cities are set to follow its example. 4 Buy bar soap instead of liquid soap in plastic containers. Don’t buy fruit or vegetables on plastic packaging. In the United Kingdom, leaders are calling for supermarkets to have plastic-free areas. They also want to tax plastic take-out containers. Recycle. 5 But it is possible to recycle most plastic bottles and milk or juice boxes. Today, Norway recycles 97 percent of its plastic bottles. How? Machines at most supermarkets take the bottles and give a refund of up to 32 cents per bottle. A. Avoid plastic packaging. B. Set up plastic-free areas. C. We can’t recycle all plastic products. D. We can’t stop recycling plastic bottles. E. You can also bring your own reusable one. F. In 1993, Denmark was the first country to place a tax on plastic bags. G. These plastics then break down into smaller pieces that can last for centuries. 【答案】1. G 2. F 3. E 4. A 5.

When catching up with friends, it can be frustrating when their attention shifts away. 1 It’s a skill that can be cultivated. Here are three key ways to enhance your listening ability. Avoid distractions. To be an effective listener, start by putting away your phone and other distractions. Research shows that multitasking distracts our attention and hampers the quality of our conversations. As musician Hishikesh Hirway says, “Trying to listen to one song while singing another in your head is impossible.” 2 Reflect on what you hear. Active listening is more than just being silent. 3 Phrases like “What I hear you saying is” can confirm your understanding. Also, resist the urge to share your own stories immediately; keep the conversation centered on them. 4 Nonverbal communication plays a vital role in conversations. Maintaining eye contact, having an open posture, and nodding can show that you’re engaged. These small gestures help the other person feel valued and encourage them to continue sharing. Improving your listening skills takes practice. 5 As Hirway advises, “Let the other person know you’re listening and stay focused.” A. Use nonverbal cues. B. Look up to show interest. C. So to build stronger relationships, active listening is essential. D. But with a bit more effort, you can foster deeper conversations. E. Engage by asking questions or summarizing what the other person says F. Therefore, during conversations, focus fully on the person in front of you. G. Taking notes while listening can help you remember the conversation better. 【答案】1. C 2. F 3. E 4. A 5. D 【解析】【导语】 这是一篇说明文。本篇文章主要讲述了如何通过提升自己的聆听能力,促进更深层次交流。 (1)题解析: 根据上文“In today’s fast-paced world, distractions are everywhere, especially from our phones. When catching up with fiends, it can be frustrating when their attention shifts away.(在当今快节奏的世界里,干扰无处不在,尤其是来自手机的干扰。当你和朋友聊天时,他们的注意力会转移,这会让你感到沮丧)”以及下文“It’s a skill that can be cultivated. Here are three key ways to enhance your listening ability.(这是一种可以培养的技能。这里有三个提高听力能力的关键方法)”可知,本句与上文构成因果关系,指出倾听对于建立关系的重要性。故C选项“因此,为了建立更牢固的关系,积极倾听是必不可少的”符合语境。故选C。 (2)题解析: 根据上文“As musician Hishikesh Hirway says, “Trying to listen to one song while singing another in your head is impossible.”(正如音乐家Hishikesh Hirway所说:“试图在你的脑海里一边听一首歌一边唱另一首歌是不可能的。”)”可知,上文提到音乐家所言,想要听着一首歌再唱出另一首歌这是不可能的。说明了在谈话中我们要全心全意关注和你讲话的这个人,不受其他干扰,故F选项“因此,在谈话中,把注意力完全集中在你面前的人身上”符合语境。故选F。 (3)题解析: 根据上文“Active listening is more than just being silent(积极倾听不仅仅是保持沉默)”可知,上文提到了积极倾听不仅仅是保持沉默,本句继续补充积极倾听的要求。故E选项“通过提问或总结对方所说的内容来参与”符合语境。故选E。 (4)题解析: 根据本段内容“Nonverbal communication plays a vital role in conversations. Maintaining eye contact, having an open posture, and nodding can show that you’re engaged. These small gestures help the other person feel valued and encourage them to continue sharing.(非语言交际在谈话中起着至关重要的作用。保持眼神交流,保持开放的姿势,点头都能表明你在认真倾听。这些小小的举动可以帮助对方感到被重视,并鼓励他们继续分享)”可知,本段主要说明了肢体语言在谈话中的作用,A选项nonverbal cues对应后文Nonverbal communication。故A选项“使用非语言暗示”符合语境。故选A。 (5)题解析: 根据上文“Improving your listening skills takes practice.(提高倾听技能需要练习)”以及下文“As Hirway advises, “Let the other person know you’re listening and stay focused.”(正如Hirway建议的那样,“让对方知道你在倾听,并保持专注。”)”可知,上文提到了提高倾听技能,结合文章主旨是深层次倾听,推测本句主要说明了如何促进更深层次的交流。故D选项“但只要再努力一点,你就能促进更深层次的对话”符合语境。故选D。 Passage 3 (25-26高二上·浙江杭州学军中学·期中)I have a drawer full of letters to Santa. Each year my children would write up their Christmas wish lists. They were polite requests for the latest game or toy. As the children got older, they would give Santa some hints(提示)on where to buy their presents. 1 Those letters taught my children a valuable lesson about writing: It has a purpose. Sometimes our purpose is to achieve something;other times it may be to entertain, inform, or persuade. 2 And when writing doesn’t seem to have any purpose or get any kind of meaningful response, then it can be hard to get excited about doing it. Christmas is a great time of year for children to communicate with others through writing. When children write for real audiences and real purposes, they can learn to choose their words accordingly. 3 You write “Dear Santa” because you don’t know him personally and you want to show him respect. 4 Texting, online messaging, live chats while playing video games all mean that they are constantly producing written messages. However, because they are usually writing to family and friends, they use informal language most of the time. There is nothing wrong with this kind of writing. It suits the audience and the purpose and gets the job done. 5 This type of writing won’t be rewarded by the school examiner, nor by a future employer or a potential client. The very best communicators are those who know how to adjust their language to match their audience. A. It isn’t that these young people can’t write. B. But it is always purposeful-or at least it should be. C. The age of pen-and-paper letter writing may have passed. D. As a result, each year they received something they wanted. E. You write “Hi Nanna and Pop” because you are close to them. F. As technology develops, young people are writing more than they ever have. G. But if this is the only kind of writing young people do, it will cause problems. 【答案】1. D 2. B 3. E 4. F 5. G 【解析】【导语】 本文是一篇议论文。作者通过讲述孩子们通过给圣诞老人写信暗示得到自己心仪的礼物,从而论证观点:人们写作都是带有某种目的的。 (1)题解析: 根据空前“As the children got older, they would give Santa some hints(提示)on where to buy their presents. (随着孩子们逐渐长大,他们会给圣诞老人一些提示,告诉他去哪里买礼物。)”可知,孩子们给圣诞老人提示去哪买礼物。结合选项可知,D项“As a result, each year they received something they wanted. (结果,他们每年都会收到他们想要的东西。)”为孩子们提示的结果:收到心仪的礼物。前后为明显的因果关系。故选D项。 (2)题解析: 根据空前“Sometimes our purpose is to achieve something;other times it may be to entertain, inform, or persuade. (有时我们的目的是为了获得东西,有时可能是为了娱乐、告知或说服。)”可知,我们写作都是带着目的的。结合选项B“But it is always purposeful-or at least it should be. (但它总是有目的的——或者至少应该是这样。)”可知,前后语意一致,说明写作是带有目的的。故选B项。 (3)题解析: 根据空前“When children write for real audiences and real purposes, they can learn to choose their words accordingly. (当孩子们为真正的读者和真正的目的写作时,他们就能学会相应地选择用词。)”以及空后“You write “Dear Santa” because you don’t know him personally and you want to show him respect. (你写“亲爱的圣诞老人”是因为你不认识他,你想表达对他的尊重。)”可知,空后句和空前句之间是“理论——实践”的关系,由此可推知,空处也应为具体的实践。结合选项E“You write “Hi Nanna and Pop” because you are close to them. (你写“嗨,奶奶和爸爸”,因为你和他们很亲近。)”可知,符合这一逻辑。而且和空后结构一致。故选E项。 (4)题解析: 根据空后“Texting, online messaging, live chats while playing video games all mean that they are constantly producing written messages. (在玩电子游戏时发短信、在线消息、实时聊天都意味着他们在不断地产生书面信息。 )”可知,科技的发展让人们的写作变得更普遍。结合选项F“As technology develops, young people are writing more than they ever have. (随着科技的发展,年轻人写的东西比以前更多了。)”可知,前后语意一致,符合语境。故选F项。 (5)题解析: 根据空前“There is nothing wrong with this kind of writing. It suits the audience and the purpose and gets the job done. (这种写作方式并没有错。它迎合了观众和目的,完成了任务。)”可知,作者在评价这种科技影响下的写作方式。结合选项G“But if this is the only kind of writing young people do, it will cause problems. (但如果这是年轻人唯一的写作方式,那就会造成问题。)”可知,前后语意一致,从正反两方面评价科技带来的写作。故选G项。 Passage 4 (25-26高二上·浙江杭州外国语学校·期中)Many people are feeling “phone-overwhelmed”, yearning for a “simpler time” when smartphones didn’t exist. Smartphones definitely aren’t “evil” or “bad,” but people of all ages are struggling to find a “balance”. What’s the solution? Actually you don’t necessarily need to throw your brand new iPhone into the toilet or promise to never, ever use it again. Things don’t have to be that black or white. 1 Here are a few simple steps: Make a plan. To earn a college degree, you select specific classes happening at specific times and you attend them. This keeps you on track, moving steadily towards your goal. 2 Choose specific times to check texts, social media updates, and so on, and then do your best to stick to the plan. Create phone-routines that help you to create the kind of day (and life) that you want. Savor (细品) the sound of silence. If your phone is continually bleeping and pinging every time “something happens”, it’s going to be tough for you to stay focused — you’ll be tempted to check in and see what’s up! This may seem obvious, but turn off those noisy notifications. 3 If you’re concerned that you might miss something important, you can create a “call filter” so that certain people’s calls come through even if your phone is on “silent.” That way you can rest easy, knowing you won’t miss something truly urgent. 4 For many couples and families, dinnertime is the only time of the day when everyone is gathered together in one place. Make dinner a special, sacred time. No phones at the table. If people get restless or bored, strike up an interesting conversation by playing a question game. Even if you’re dining alone, set your laptop or phone aside and savor your meal without techie distractions. Ask yourself, “What am I desiring right now?” When you feel the urge to check your phone, and you don’t really “need” to, pause for moment. 5 Do you crave (渴望) company? Do you want some excitement or entertainment? Inspiration? Whatever you crave, see if you can find a non-phone-related way to give it to yourself. Go for a jog, or pop by a friend’s house to say “hi”. After satisfying your cravings out in the “real world,” you may discover that whatever is going on in the “phone-world” just isn’t that compelling anymore. A. Take some phone-free time. B. Make dinnertime a phone-free zone. C. Check in with yourself and see what you want. D. See how it feels to move freely without your phone. E. You can apply that same-logic to your smartphone usage. F. You can take specific steps to create healthier, more balanced relationship with your phone. G. Better yet, turn the volume on your phone down to zero or power-down your phone completely. 【答案】1. F 2. E 3. G 4. B 5. C 【解析】【导语】 这是一篇说明文。各个年龄段的人都在努力与手机建立更健康和平衡的关系,文章主要就如何建立这种关系提出了一些建议。 (1)题解析: 根据上文“Many people are feeling “phone-overwhelmed”, yearning for a “simpler time” when smartphones didn’t exist. Smartphones definitely aren’t “evil” or “bad,” but people of all ages are struggling to find a “balance”. What’s the solution? Actually you don’t necessarily need to throw your brand new iPhone into the toilet or promise to never, ever use it again. Things don’t have to be that black or white.(许多人正感到“被手机搞得应接不暇”,他们渴望回到“没有智能手机”的“更简单的时代”。智能手机绝非“邪恶”或“有害”的东西,但各个年龄段的人都在努力寻找一种“平衡”的方式。那么,解决办法是什么呢?实际上,你不一定非要把你那崭新的iPhone投入马桶,或者发誓再也不用它了。事情并非非得非黑即白那么简单)”可知,前文提到人们无需极端放弃手机,而是需要“平衡”,空格需承接“如何实现平衡”的解决方案;后文紧跟“Here are a few simple steps”(以下是几个简单步骤),说明空格需起到引出具体方法的过渡作用;选项F“你可以采取具体步骤,与手机建立更健康、更平衡的关系。”既呼应前文“无需极端,寻求平衡”的观点,又直接引出后文的步骤介绍,逻辑衔接紧密。故选F。 (2)题解析: 根据上文“Make a plan. To earn a college degree, you select specific classes happening at specific times and you attend them. This keeps you on track, moving steadily towards your goal.(制定一个计划。要获得大学学位,你需要选择特定课程,并在特定时间参加这些课程的学习。这样能让你保持方向明确,稳步朝着目标前进)”以及后文“Choose specific times to check texts, social media updates, and so on, and then do your best to stick to the plan. Create phone-routines that help you to create the kind of day (and life) that you want.(选择特定的时间来查看短信、社交媒体更新等信息,然后尽力按照这个计划行事。制定一些电话使用规则,帮助你营造出自己所期望的那种生活状态)”可知,前文用“攻读大学学位需要制定具体计划、按时上课”类比,核心是“制定计划实现目标”;后文提到“选择特定时间查看信息并坚持计划”,明确是“将制定计划的逻辑应用到手机使用中”;选项E“你可以将同样的逻辑应用到手机使用上。”承接前文的类比,直接点明“计划逻辑”的迁移,使“学位计划”与“手机使用计划”形成自然关联。故选E。 (3)题解析: 根据上文“This may seem obvious, but turn off those noisy notifications.(这似乎是显而易见的,关掉那些嘈杂的手机通知声)”以及后文“If you’re concerned that you might miss something important, you can create a “call filter” so that certain people’s calls come through even if your phone is on “silent.”(如果你担心自己可能会错过一些重要的事情,你可以创建一个“来电过滤器”,这样即使你的手机处于静音状态,某些人的来电也会打进来)”可知,上文提到了关闭手机通知声音,后文则提到了来电过滤器,让收集在静音状态也能收到来电,可推知,本句是在建议,在关闭手机通知的基础上,进一步把手机音量调成零,即静音,G选项“更好的是,把手机音量调到零,或者完全关机。”符合语境,故选G。 (4)题解析: 空格为段落小标题,需概括本段核心内容根据后文“For many couples and families, dinnertime is the only time of the day when everyone is gathered together in one place. Make dinner a special, sacred time. No phones at the table. If people get restless or bored, strike up an interesting conversation by playing a question game. Even if you’re dining alone, set your laptop or phone aside and savor your meal without techie distractions.(对于许多夫妻和家庭来说,晚餐时间是全家人聚在一起的唯一时刻。把晚餐时间变成一个特别而神圣的时刻吧。餐桌上不要使用手机。如果人们感到不安或无聊,可以通过玩一个提问游戏来开启有趣的对话。即使你是独自用餐,也要把笔记本电脑或手机放在一边,专心享受美食,避免受到科技产品的干扰)”可知,本段核心是“晚餐时间禁止使用手机”;选项B“让晚餐时间成为无手机区域。”精准概括段落主旨,且“dinnertime”为段落高频词,主题匹配度极高。故选B。 (5)题解析: 根据上文“Ask yourself, “What am I desiring right now?” When you feel the urge to check your phone, and you don’t really “need” to, pause for moment.(问问自己:“此刻我最渴望的是什么?”当你想要查看手机,但其实并没有“必要”这么做时,先暂停片刻)”以及后文“Do you crave (渴望) company? Do you want some excitement or entertainment? Inspiration? Whatever you crave, see if you can find a non-phone-related way to give it to yourself. Go for a jog, or pop by a friend’s house to say “hi”. After satisfying your cravings out in the “real world,” you may discover that whatever is going on in the “phone-world” just isn’t that compelling anymore.(你渴望有人陪伴吗?你想要一些刺激或娱乐吗?灵感呢?无论你渴望什么,看看能否找到一种与手机无关的方式来满足自己。去慢跑一下,或者去朋友家打个招呼。在“现实世界”中满足了你的渴望之后,你可能会发现“手机世界”里发生的事情已经不再那么吸引人了)”可知,前文提出问题:“当你想刷手机却并非必需时,暂停一下”,空格需回应“暂停后该做什么”;后文连续提问:“你渴望陪伴吗?想要刺激或娱乐吗?”,均是“自我追问需求”的具体体现;选项C“审视自己,看看自己想要什么。”承接前文“暂停”的动作,直接引出后文的需求追问,且与段落标题“我现在渴望什么”形成同义呼应,逻辑连贯。故选C。 Passage 5 (25-26高二上·浙江北仑中学·期中)As December starts, so does party season. Whether it’s the office Christmas party or New Year’ Eve, socializing fills many people with fear. If all the parties over the festive period stressed you out, the first thing to say is you’re not alone. 1 The reason for this is the way we evolved. 2 That’s why we have developed instincts (本能) to care a lot about social stuff, are so concerned about things like reputation and status, and are afraid of making a fool of ourselves or being left out. But don’t forget, social occasions are an opportunity, not just a threat. 3 So as an initial step towards reducing your anxiety, try boosting your hopefulness about these events. For example, remind yourself of occasions — however rare they might be — when things went well and you had a fun time or you made new friends. 4 Rather than waiting for the obligations (义务) to roll in and hang over you like a dark cloud, be clear about which ones you really want. If there are friends you’d love to go with, don’t wait for them to ask you — reach out and make it happen. Indeed, excessive self-focus is one of the main drivers of social anxiety. Constantly monitoring your own behaviour and words will fuel your nerves and lead you to act more awkwardly. 5 You can even give yourself another if-then plan to help with it: if I find myself being self-focused, then I’ll make a conscious effort to focus on what someone is saying or wearing. Like all challenges in life we find difficult, socializing gets easier with practice. A. Next, be a little strategic and active. B. Don’t overestimate how people judge you. C. Your friends probably like you more than you realize. D. You can focus your attention outwards to reduce anxiety. E. Actually, feeling nervous about socializing is incredibly common. F. Throughout history, humans needed to work in groups to stay alive. G. They’re a chance to create shared memories, bond and have fun together. 【答案】1. E 2. F 3. G 4. A 5. D 【解析】【导语】 本文是一篇说明文,主要讲的是如何减轻社交焦虑,特别是在节日聚会季节。 (1)题解析: 空前“If all the parties over the festive period stressed you out, the first thing to say is you’re not alone.(如果节日期间的所有派对都让你感到压力,那么首先要说的是,你并不孤单)”说明很多人都对节日期间的派对感到有压力,这是很普遍的,E选项“Actually, feeling nervous about socializing is incredibly common.(事实上,社交时感到紧张是非常普遍的)”说明了社交时感到紧张很普遍,和前面的“you’re not alone”相一致,因此承接上文,符合语境,故选E。 (2)题解析: 空前“The reason for this is the way we evolved.(原因在于我们进化的方式)”说明了人们在社交时紧张和我们进化的方式有关,空格处应该和人类的进化有关,F选项“Throughout history, humans needed to work in groups to stay alive.(纵观历史,人类需要集体工作才能生存)”讲的是在历史上人们需要集体工作,和人类的发展进化有关,因此承接上文,符合语境,故选F。 (3)题解析: 空前“But don’t forget, social occasions are an opportunity, not just a threat(但是不要忘记,社交场合是一个机会,而不仅仅是一个威胁)”说明了社交场合不仅仅是威胁,空格处应该说社交场合是什么,而且应该说关于社交场合的积极的内容,G选项“They’re a chance to create shared memories, bond and have fun together.(它们是一个创造共同回忆、建立联系、一起快乐的机会)”说明了社交场合的积极的方面,承接上文,符合语境,故选G。 (4)题解析: 空格处是本段主旨句,由空后“Rather than waiting for the obligations (义务) to roll in and hang over you like a dark cloud, be clear about which ones you really want. If there are friends you’d love to go with, don’t wait for them to ask you—reach out and make it happen.(与其等着义务像乌云一样笼罩着你,不如弄清楚哪些是你真正想要的。如果你想和朋友一起去,不要等着他们邀请你——主动去做吧)”可知,本段主要讲的是要积极主动一点,A选项“Next, be a little strategic and active.(其次,要有一点策略和积极)”说明了要积极,概括本段内容,可作为主旨句,故选A。 (5)题解析: 空前“Indeed, excessive self-focus is one of the main drivers of social anxiety. Constantly monitoring your own behaviour and words will fuel your nerves and lead you to act more awkwardly.(事实上,过度关注自我是社交焦虑的主要驱动因素之一。不断监控自己的行为和言语会刺激你的神经,导致你的行为更加尴尬)”说明了过度关注自我的坏处,空格处应该说这个问题该怎么解决,D选项“You can focus your attention outwards to reduce anxiety.(你可以通过将注意力转向外部来减轻焦虑)”说明了要把注意力转向外部,是解决前文所说的过分关注自己的问题的解决办法,因此承接上文,符合语境,故选D。 Passage 1 (25-26高二上·浙江衢州五校·期中)Many people have fallen into the habit of neglecting to express gratitude to others and failing to take moments to appreciate the invisible yet wonderful aspects of life. 1 However, there are several effective tips to help cultivate a habit of gratitude. Practice mindfulness. It is highly beneficial for expressing gratitude, as it enables individuals to fully engage with and appreciate the present moment, according to Michelle Maidenberg, a therapist in private practice in Harrison, New York, who also teaches a graduate course in Mindfulness Practice at New York University. 2 Keep a gratitude journal. 3 The idea is that you’ll get in the habit of noticing those things you appreciate more regularly throughout the day and more frequently. 4 Notice the things that are around you that are important to you or meet your values. For example, if you love nature, take a minute to enjoy when the sun is out. Give back. Practicing gratitude can also be giving back through charity work and service for others. Gratitude isn’t just about speaking, it’s in the doing. One example is to look for the good that can come out of a crisis, such as collecting supplies for people affected by a hurricane. Reframe. Reframing your mindset is a powerful way to bring more gratitude into your life. 5 For example, instead of saying or thinking “I have to go to work today,” reframe it as “I get to go to work today and use my skills and talents.” A. So practicing mindfulness can help. B. Write a thank-you note to someone every week. C. Take the time to appreciate what you truly enjoy. D. Toward the end of the day write down your daily gratitude.

After graduating with psychology and art degrees, I expected to become a psychologist or artist. 1 Holding two degrees, I realized I was exhausted from forcing myself into roles that never fit — like wearing shoes two sizes too small. 2 I came to accept my stress limits after repeated burnout. Albert Einstein’s words hit hard: expecting different results from repeated failures is unwise. I stopped wasting energy on unsustainable paths I didn’t truly want. My compass reset: Only pursue what I can sustain and truly value. It was during this period of reflection that a long-buried passion quietly resurfaced — writing. When I shared this with Elena, an artist friend, her eyes lit up. “True passion turns discipline into joy, never duty.” she emphasized. 3 I realized true passion is written in the soul; when accepted, regular practice flows naturally, becoming the true path to mastery. Fueled by this clarity, I took concrete steps. I carved out precious, daily writing time, starting small and manageable. 4 Then came the real test: when a high-paying job demanded overtime that would steal my writing time, I firmly declined. It wasn’t sacrifice (牺牲); it was claiming my truth. I wrote with focus I never knew in offices. Making space for what mattered transformed everything. Regular writing brought peace and direction. Though money remains a necessity, working with passion unlocks hidden doors within. Purpose isn’t found in distant dreams. 5 When you swim in the right direction, the stream of life will carry you where you’re meant to be. A. These words struck me deeply. B. This requires exceptional talent. C. It grows through daily chosen actions. D. Years of exhaustion became my wake-up call. E. I landed a dream job as a school mental health adviser. F. This meant a daily routine of putting down 500 words. G. The reality was years of bouncing from one office job to another. 【答案】1. G 2. D 3. A 4. F 5. C 【解析】【导语】 这是一篇记叙文。文章介绍了作者寻找自己的真正的道路的过程。 (1)题解析: 上文“After graduating with psychology and art degrees, I expected to become a psychologist or artist.(在获得心理学和艺术学位后,我希望成为一名心理学家或艺术家)”提到作者获得学位后希望成为一名心理学家或艺术家,下文“Holding two degrees, I realized I was exhausted from forcing myself into roles that never fit— like wearing shoes two sizes too small.(拥有两个学位的我意识到,强迫自己扮演不合适的角色——比如穿小了两个码的鞋子——让我筋疲力尽)”提到作者强迫自己扮演不合适的角色,由此推知作者没有按希望的那样成为心理学家或艺术家,而是尝试了不同的工作,G项“事实是,我多年来一直从一个办公室的工作换到另一个”符合语境,故选G。 (2)题解析: 根据下文“I came to accept my stress limits after repeated burnout. Albert Einstein’s words hit hard: expecting different results from repeated failures is unwise. I stopped wasting energy on unsustainable paths I didn’t truly want. My compass reset: Only pursue what I can sustain and truly value.(在多次精疲力竭之后,我开始接受自己的压力极限。阿尔伯特·爱因斯坦的话给了我们很大的打击:期待从反复的失败中得到不同的结果是不明智的。我不再把精力浪费在我并不真正想要的不可持续的道路上。我的指南针重新设定了:只追求我能坚持和真正重视的东西)”可知,作者在万分疲惫之后开始醒悟:不再浪费精力,而是只去追求自己能坚持和真正重视的东西,D项“多年的疲惫给我敲响了警钟”符合语境,故选D。 (3)题解析: 上文“True passion turns discipline into joy, never duty.(真正的激情会把纪律变成快乐,而不是责任)”是作者的艺术家朋友Elena说的话,下文“I realized true passion is written in the soul; when accepted, regular practice flows naturally, becoming the true path to mastery.(我意识到真正的激情是写在灵魂里的;一旦被接受,常规练习就会自然而然地进行,成为通往精通的真正道路)”是作者的感悟。由此推知,Elena的话让作者备受启发,A项“这些话深深地触动了我”符合语境,故选A。 (4)题解析: 上文“I carved out precious, daily writing time, starting small and manageable.(我每天都挤出宝贵的写作时间,从小事做起,做到易于管理)”提到作者每天挤出时间写作,设定小而易于管理的目标,F项“这意味着每天要写500字”具体说明每天的写作目标,符合语境,故选F。 (5)题解析: 上文“Purpose isn’t found in distant dreams.(目标不是在遥远的梦想中找到)”提到,目标不是在遥远的梦想中找到,空处应是接着说实现目标的正确做法,C项“它通过每天选择的行动而成长”符合语境,和下文内容“When you swim in the right direction, the stream of life will carry you where you’re meant to be.(当你朝正确的方向游泳时,生活的溪流会把你带到你应该去的地方)”呼应,故选C。 Passage 3 (25-26高二上·浙江台金七校联考·期中)How to Stop Worrying About What Other People Think of You If you want to be your best and perform at a high level, fear of people’s opinions may be holding you back. Many people feel panicked before speaking in public, sharing their ideas in meetings, or even walking into a room full of strangers. 1 The good news is that you don’t have to be controlled by it. There are practical steps to weaken its influence. The first step is to replace negative thoughts with positive self-talk. Guide yourself toward confidence-building statements such as “I’ve prepared well” or “I have valuable ideas to share.” 2 Taking a few deep breaths also helps to calm your body and send a signal of safety to your brain. Another strategy lies in cultivating greater self-awareness. Most of us merely have a vague idea of who we are. 3 By identifying your values and shaping a personal philosophy, you’ll feel less pressure to meet everyone else’s expectations. 4 Begin with small steps that feel authentic yet slightly bold. This could be sharing an unpopular idea in a meeting, dancing freely at a party, or simply saying “no” to a request that upsets you. The goal is to prove to yourself that expressing your true self is not only safe but empowering. Each time you do this, you strengthen a self-image rooted in courage rather than fear, making you less likely to be influenced by external judgments. Finally, not every voice deserves your attention. Create a short list of trusted individuals whose opinions are consistent with your values and who understand the person you want to become. 5 A. But that is often not enough. B. Another vital method is to face social discomfort. C. These statements shift your focus to your own strengths. D. This fear of social disapproval may considerably harm your potential. E. A powerful way forward is to accumulate evidence of your own courage. F. Therefore, learning to reframe this anxiety as excitement can be a powerful tool G. In doing so, you can block the distracting noises and stay focused on what really matters. 【答案】1. D 2. C 3. A 4. E 5. G 【解析】【导语】 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍如何停止担心他人对自己的看法,给出替换消极想法等具体方法。 (1)题解析: 根据上文“Many people feel panicked before speaking in public, sharing their ideas in meetings, or even walking into a room full of strangers.(许多人在公开演讲、在会议上分享想法,甚至走进一个满是陌生人的房间前都会感到恐慌)”以及下文“The good news is that you don’t have to be controlled by it.(好消息是你不必被它控制)”可知,此处需衔接上文的恐慌情绪并点明其影响,D选项“这种对社会不认可的恐惧可能会极大地损害你的潜力。”中this fear指代上文的恐慌,harm your potential体现影响,符合语境。故选D项。 (2)题解析: 根据上文“Guide yourself toward confidence-building statements such as “I’ve prepared well” or “I have valuable ideas to share.”(引导自己说一些建立信心的话,比如“我准备得很充分”或者“我有有价值的想法可以分享。”)”可知,此处应说明这些话语的作用,C选项“这些话能把你的注意力转移到自己的优势上。”中these statements指代上文的信心话语,shift your focus to your own strengths解释其作用,符合语境。故选C项。 (3)题解析: 根据上文“Most of us merely have a vague idea of who we are.(我们大多数人对自己是谁只有一个模糊的概念)”以及下文“By identifying your values and shaping a personal philosophy, you’ll feel less pressure to meet everyone else’s expectations.(通过明确自己的价值观并形成个人信念,你满足他人期望的压力就会减小)”可知,此处需转折并引出解决模糊认知的方法,A选项“但这通常是不够的。”承接上文的模糊认知,引出下文的具体做法,符合语境。故选A项。 (4)题解析: 根据下文“Begin with small steps that feel authentic yet slightly bold.(从那些感觉真实但又略带大胆的小步骤开始)”可知,此处需点明该段策略,E选项“一个强大的前进方式是积累你自己勇气的证据。”中courage呼应下文bold, accumulate呼应Begin with small steps,符合语境。故选E项。 (5)题解析: 根据上文“Create a short list of trusted individuals whose opinions are consistent with your values and who understand the person you want to become.(列出一小部分值得信任的人,他们的观点与你的价值观一致,并且理解你想成为的人)”可知,此处需说明这样做的效果,G选项“这样做,你可以屏蔽干扰的声音,专注于真正重要的事情。”中in doing so指代上文的做法,说明其作用,符合语境。故选G项。 Passage 4 (25-26高二上·浙江卓越高中联盟-11月·期中)After hours of cooking and arranging the table, your goal is simple: to create an unforgettable dining experience for your guests. But success isn’t just about fresh ingredients or cooking skills. 1 Colour’s influence starts with the first glance. 2 The brain processes colour information and links it to taste, making us judge the same dish as delicious, average, or unappealing. So, making the food visually attractive is key, as guests will assume it tastes as good as it looks. For picky eaters, bowl colour is crucial. 3 They often find meals in red or blue bowls saltier than in white ones. A red bowl can also make them hesitant to try new dishes, and they might even refuse food if the bowl’s colour doesn’t suit them. Choosing the right tableware colour is top priority here. White plates are usually a safe choice, but avoid them with pale foods, which will look tasteless. They work well with vibrant dishes like salads or roasted meats, making the food’s colours stand out. For desserts, white plates enhance sweetness and flavor intensity. 4 Black plates, for example, can make food seem saltier and larger in portion. This means dark tableware needs careful consideration of the dish’s flavor and portion size. On the contrary, bright plates add creativity and highlight less colorful foods but can go wrong. 5 matching the plate’s colour too closely to the food can make portions seem smaller, as everything blends. Understanding colour psychology lets you turn a simple meal into a memorable experience — all through smart tableware choices. It allows you to guide your guests’ perceptions subtly, ensuring that each dish not only tastes wonderful but also feels perfectly suited to the moment. A. Dark plates have more varied effects. B. They prefer simple tableware without any patterns. C. The wrong bright shade makes food look artificial. D. That initial visual impression brings about a chain reaction. E. Using the wrong colour can ruin the overall dining mood. F. Their reactions to tableware colours are often more sensitive. G. The colour of tableware like plates, shapes how guests feel about the food. 【答案】1. G 2. D 3. F 4. A 5. C 【解析】【导语】 本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了餐具颜色对食物感受的影响,以及如何通过选择合适的餐具颜色来提升用餐体验。 (1)题解析: 根据上文“But success isn’t just about fresh ingredients or cooking skills. (但成功不仅仅取决于新鲜的食材或烹饪技巧。)”以及下文“Colour’s influence starts with the first glance. (颜色的影响从第一眼就开始了。)”可知,上文说用餐体验不仅仅取决于新鲜的食材或烹饪技巧,下文则提到了颜色。G选项“The colour of tableware like plates, shapes how guests feel about the food. (盘子等餐具的颜色会影响客人对食物的感受。)”承接上文“成功的用餐体验不止于食材和厨艺”,引出下文“颜色的影响”,“The colour of tableware”与下文“Colour’s influence”直接呼应,明确了文章核心话题 —— 餐具颜色的重要性。故选G项。 (2)题解析: 根据上文“Colour’s influence starts with the first glance. (颜色的影响始于第一眼。)”以及下文“The brain processes colour information and links it to taste, making us judge the same dish as delicious, average, or unappealing. (大脑处理颜色信息并将其与味道关联,让我们判断同一道菜是美味、普通还是令人反感。)”可知,此处应描述第一眼看到食物颜色后的一系列反应,D选项“That initial visual impression brings about a chain reaction. (这种最初的视觉印象会引发连锁反应。)”中的“initial visual impression”与上文的“first glance”相呼应,“a chain reaction”则引出下文大脑对颜色信息的处理和判断。故选D项。 (3)题解析: 根据上文“For picky eaters, bowl colour is crucial. (对于挑食的人来说,碗的颜色至关重要。)”以及下文“They often find meals in red or blue bowls saltier than in white ones. (他们经常发现放在红色或蓝色碗里的饭菜比放在白色碗里的更咸。)”可知,此处应描述挑食者对餐具颜色的敏感反应,F选项“Their reactions to tableware colours are often more sensitive. (他们对餐具颜色的反应往往更敏感。)”解释了“碗的颜色对挑食者至关重要”的原因,即敏感度更高,“Their”指代“picky eaters”,“more sensitive”与下文具体的颜色反应相呼应,逻辑连贯。故选F项。 (4)题解析: 根据下文“Black plates, for example, can make food seem saltier and larger in portion. This means dark tableware needs careful consideration of the dish’s flavor and portion size. (例如,黑色盘子会让食物看起来更咸、分量更大。这意味着深色餐具需要仔细考虑菜品的味道和分量。)”可知,此处应描述深色盘子对食物感受的影响,A选项“Dark plates have more varied effects. (深色盘子有更多样化的效果。)”是对下文内容的概括,“Dark plates”对应下文 “Black plates”“dark tableware”,“more varied effects”点明深色餐具的特点,引出下文具体举例说明,适合作为段落首句。故选A项。 (5)题解析: 根据上文“On the contrary, bright plates add creativity and highlight less colorful foods but can go wrong. (相反,亮色盘子能增添创意,突出颜色较淡的食物,但也可能出错。)”以及下文“matching the plate’s colour too closely to the food can make portions seem smaller, as everything blends. (如果盘子的颜色和食物的颜色太接近,会让食物看起来分量更小,因为一切都融合在一起了。)”可知,此处应描述明亮盘子可能出错的具体情况,C选项“The wrong bright shade makes food look artificial. (错误的明亮色调会让食物看起来不自然。)” 是对“亮色盘子可能出错”的具体说明,与下文“颜色过于接近导致分量显小”并列,补充了亮色餐具的另一个弊端,“The wrong bright shade”呼应上文“can go wrong”,衔接紧密。故选C项。 Passage 5 (25-26高二上·浙江环大罗山·期中)Why we enjoy fear: the science of a good scare The thrill of a frightening film can feel incredibly delightful — and mild horror, say researchers, can also help develop lasting psychological toughness. Palms sweat, heartbeat quickens, muscles tense. 1 Is this just the relief of having survived — or is it something more? Fear is an ancient emotion and scary stories are rooted in human history. In early societies, scary tales were used to teach children about dangers they might encounter. 2 A study found that horror fans were mentally tougher. “They have, to some extent, been exposed to similar scenes and can draw on that experience to face new, uncertain realities.” says Malmdorf-Andersen. 3 To investigate the relationship between enjoyment and fear, Malmdorf-Andersen studied a group of people who went to a haunted house (鬼屋). The findings indicated that humans don’t like being too far from their normal physiological state. 4 “There might be a sweet spot between fear and enjoyment.” says Malmdorf-Andersen. “At that spot, a flood of fear quickly followed by relief results in the release of feel-good chemicals in the brain rewarding you with a sudden rush of intense delight.” 5 We all have a unique sense of what we find scary — what can be a thrill for one person can be truly terrifying for another. So dare to be scared — but just the right amount. A. However, keep in mind that everyone is different. B. Instead, they do enjoy being just a little bit out of their comfort zone. C. Today, what draws people to watch a good scare? D. When fear dies down, we can be left with feelings of pleasure. E. This indicates that enjoyment of fear makes sense if you look at it as a “form of play”. F. As a matter of fact, they prefer to stay in their comfort zones. G. They are the signs to fight the dangers. 【答案】1. D 2. C 3. E 4. B 5. A 【解析】【导语】 这是一篇说明文,解释了人们为何享受恐惧。文章先以恐怖电影带来的刺激感引出问题,接着从人类历史中恐怖故事的作用、恐怖爱好者心理韧性更强的研究发现,再到鬼屋实验揭示的“恐惧与愉悦的平衡点”,层层递进阐述恐惧带来愉悦的原因,最后提醒每个人对恐惧的耐受度不同,需把握合适程度。 (1)题解析: 上文“The thrill of a frightening film can feel incredibly delightful — and mild horror, say researchers, can also help develop lasting psychological toughness. Palms sweat, heartbeat quickens, muscles tense. (恐怖电影带来的刺激感令人无比愉悦——研究人员表示,轻度恐怖还能帮助培养持久的心理韧性。手心出汗、心跳加速、肌肉紧绷。)”描述了观看恐怖内容时的生理反应;下文“Is this just the relief of having survived — or is it something more? (这仅仅是劫后余生的释然,还是另有原因?)”提出对这种反应后续感受的疑问。需要一句衔接“生理反应”与“后续感受”,且体现“恐惧消退后产生愉悦”的句子。选项D“当恐惧消退后,我们会留下愉悦的感觉。”既承接上文的恐惧时生理反应,又引出下文对“愉悦感来源”的疑问,逻辑衔接自然。故选D。 (2)题解析: 上文“Fear is an ancient emotion and scary stories are rooted in human history. In early societies, scary tales were used to teach children about dangers they might encounter. (恐惧是一种古老的情绪,恐怖故事根植于人类历史。在早期社会,恐怖故事被用来教导孩子们可能遇到的危险。)”介绍了恐怖故事的历史作用;下文“A study found that horror fans were mentally tougher. “They have, to some extent, been exposed to similar scenes and can draw on that experience to face new, uncertain realities.” (一项研究发现,恐怖爱好者的心理韧性更强。“在某种程度上,他们接触过类似场景,能够利用这些经验面对新的、不确定的现实。”)”引出当代研究结论。需要一句衔接“历史作用”与“当代研究”,且引发对“当代人喜欢恐惧”原因探讨的句子。选项C“如今,是什么吸引人们观看恐怖内容呢?”以“如今”衔接上文的历史背景,自然过渡到对当代人喜好原因的探究,契合文章从历史到当代的论述脉络。故选C。 (3)题解析: 上文“A study found that horror fans were mentally tougher. “They have, to some extent, been exposed to similar scenes and can draw on that experience to face new, uncertain realities.” says Malmdorf-Andersen. (一项研究发现,恐怖爱好者的心理韧性更强。马尔姆多夫-安德森说:“在某种程度上,他们接触过类似场景,能够利用这些经验面对新的、不确定的现实。”)”呈现了研究结果及学者观点;此处需要一句承接该观点,解释“享受恐惧”合理性的句子。选项E“这表明,如果你将对恐惧的享受视为一种‘游戏形式’,它就合情合理了。”中的“这”指代上文研究发现,既解释了恐惧享受的内在逻辑,又为下文的实验研究做了铺垫,让论述更连贯。故选E。 (4)题解析: 上文“To investigate the relationship between enjoyment and fear, Malmdorf-Andersen studied a group of people who went to a haunted house (鬼屋). The findings indicated that humans don’t like being too far from their normal physiological state. (为了研究愉悦感与恐惧之间的关系,马尔姆多夫-安德森对一组去鬼屋的人进行了研究。研究结果表明,人类不喜欢偏离正常生理状态太远。)”介绍了鬼屋实验及初步发现;下文““There might be a sweet spot between fear and enjoyment.” says Malmdorf-Andersen. (马尔姆多夫-安德森说:“恐惧和愉悦之间可能存在一个平衡点。”)”提出“平衡点”的核心观点。需要一句衔接“不喜欢偏离太远”与“平衡点”,且说明“适度偏离”的句子。选项B“相反,他们确实喜欢稍微走出自己的舒适区。”以“相反”承接上文“不喜欢偏离太远”,“稍微走出舒适区”恰好对应下文的“恐惧与愉悦的平衡点”,解释了实验发现与核心观点的关联,逻辑清晰。故选B。 (5)题解析: 下文“We all have a unique sense of what we find scary — what can be a thrill for one person can be truly terrifying for another. So dare to be scared — but just the right amount. (我们每个人对恐惧的感受都不同——对一个人来说是刺激的事情,对另一个人来说可能真的很可怕。所以,敢于体验恐惧,但要适度。)”强调每个人对恐惧的耐受度不同,需把握程度。需要一句点明“个体差异”的总起句。选项A“然而,请记住,每个人都是不同的。”直接点明段落核心“个体差异”,下文的“感受不同”“适度体验”都是对该句的具体阐述,逻辑连贯。故选A。 Passage 6 (25-26高二上·浙江合作组织-11月·期中)Pets are an important part of our lives, staying with us and providing unconditional love.

You may feel pressured, especially if you’ve accidentally given unhelpful advice before. But these tips will help you become skilled at it soon! Take time to think about the issue if you can. Spend a day or a few hours exploring its possible solutions. You may even ask someone more knowledgeable for advice. However, most people need immediate help when they ask for advice. 1 Talk them through the difficulties. Talk about the hard parts of their situation and why they’re problematic. 2 Something they see as an impassable barrier might be easy to overcome with an outside perspective. For example: “You want to join the school play but worry it’s too hard. What’s stopping you? Memorizing lines? Fear of performing in front of others?” Help them evaluate the problem from an outside angle. People often miss the whole situation or solutions because they focus on small problems. 3 From your perspective, point out details they’ve missed. If a friend worries a handmade party gift isn’t “fancy enough,” note unique items get more compliments than expensive ones. 4 Guide them through their options, then suggest new ones. Don’t let them reject options quickly—weigh all fairly. If they dismiss an option, find the real reason; they may object based on wrong ideas. For example: “You want better grades but worry about time. Try a study schedule, ask teachers for help, or join a study group?” Share any information you have. After discussing options, share your experience or what to expect. This helps them clarify feelings about options. 5 Remember to avoid bias and judgment in your words. Also, know when to be firm or kind—most need encouragement, but sometimes honesty is key. Finally, stress you can’t control the future: you can’t guarantee results, but you’ll support them. A. Open them up to all their options. B. Help them step back by looking at the big picture. C. List each option and then compare its good and bad points. D. This helps them break down big problems into small steps. E. It will also help them feel more confident about their final choice. F. So you must ask other experts for more detailed suggestions right away. G. So you might have to respond to the best of your ability and follow up later. 【答案】1. G 2. D 3. B 4. A 5. E 【解析】【导语】 本文是一篇说明文,主要讲的是如何更有效地给别人提供建议。 (1)题解析: 前文“Take time to think about the issue if you can. Spend a day or a few hours exploring its possible solutions.(如果可以的话,花点时间想想这个问题。花一天或几个小时探索可能的解决方案。)”和“However, most people need immediate help when they ask for advice.(然而,大多数人在寻求建议时需要立即得到帮助。)”提到如果可能可以花时间思考问题,但大多数人需要立即帮助,这就形成了一种对比和转折。说明在不能立即给予详细思考后的建议时,要尽力在当下给出最好的回应,之后再跟进,G选项“So you might have to respond to the best of your ability and follow up later.(所以你可能要尽你最大的能力做出回应,然后再跟进。)”说明先给出回应,后面再跟进,承接上文,符合语境。故选G。 (2)题解析: 空前“Talk them through the difficulties.

Don’t let them reject options quickly—weigh all fairly. If they dismiss an option, find the real reason; they may object based on wrong ideas. For example: “You want better grades but worry about time. Try a study schedule, ask teachers for help, or join a study group?”(引导他们分析各种选择,然后提出新的选择。不要让他们迅速否定任何选项——要公平地权衡所有选项。如果他们否决了一个选项,找出真正的原因;他们可能是基于错误的观念而反对。例如:“你想取得更好的成绩,但又担心时间不够。试试制定一个学习计划、向老师寻求帮助,或者加入一个学习小组,怎么样?”)”可知,本段主要讲的是要公平地权衡所有选项,A选项“Open them up to all their options.(让他们有各种选择。)”说明了要让他们有各种选择,概括了本段内容,可作为主旨句。故选A。 (5)题解析: 空前“Share any information you have.

This helps them clarify feelings about options.(分享你掌握的任何信息。在讨论了选项之后,分享你的经验或期望。这有助于他们理清对选择的感受。)”说明要在讨论了选项之后,分享你的经验或期望,也说明了这样做的好处,E选项“It will also help them feel more confident about their final choice.(这也会让他们对自己的最终选择更有信心。)”进一步补充说明分享你的经验或期望的好处,承接上文,符合语境。故选E。 Passage 8 (25-26高二上·浙江G5联盟-11月·期中)Poetry, with its rhythmic language and layered meanings, invites readers to explore emotions, ideas, and beauty beyond the literal. To fully engage with a poem, consider these methods to deepen your appreciation and understanding. Read aloud for rhythm and sound 1 Read the poem aloud slowly. Notice the rhythm, rhymes, or repeating sounds. For example, Edgar Allan Poe’s The Raven uses a tense beat, while Langston Hughes’ Dreams has a gentle flow. Do they sound cheerful, sad, or urgent? The “music” of a poem often mirrors its mood. 2 Understanding a poem’s historical, cultural, or biographical context enriches interpretation. It will help you a lot to find out when the poem was written or what the poet’s life was like. But don’t stress — even a quick Google search can add meaning. Accept confusion Poems don’t always have one right explanation. 3 Maybe Shakespeare’s Sonnet 18 is both a love poem and a joke about clichés (陈词滥调). Discuss with classmates — different views make poems more interesting! Let uncertainty spark curiosity. Connect the poem to your life Let your emotions guide your understanding. If a line reminds you of a personal experience, write down your thoughts or share them with a friend. 4 Poetry isn’t just about analysis — it’s about feeling and imagination. Appreciating poetry is both an art and a practice — requiring attention to form, context, and personal reflection. As Eliot wrote, poetry “communicates before it is understood”, inviting us to return, rethink, and rediscover its magic endlessly. 5 A. Poems are meant to be heard. B. Learn the background of the poem. C. Compare poems by different authors. D. Poetry is alive when it speaks to you. E. Practice memorizing your favorite lines. F. If a line feels puzzling, write down your guesses. G. Grab a poem, read it aloud, and let yourself enjoy the magic of it. 【答案】1. A 2. B 3. F 4. D 5. G 【解析】【导语】 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了如何深入欣赏和理解诗歌的方法,包括大声朗读感受节奏和声音、了解诗歌的背景、接受诗歌的模糊性、将诗歌与个人生活联系起来等。 (1)题解析: 根据下文“Read the poem aloud slowly. Notice the rhythm, rhymes, or repeating sounds. For example, Edgar Allan Poe’s The Raven uses a tense beat, while Langston Hughes’ Dreams has a gentle flow. Do they sound cheerful, sad, or urgent? The “music” of a poem often mirrors its mood.(慢慢地大声朗读这首诗。留意它的韵律、韵脚或重复的声音。例如,埃德加・爱伦・坡的《乌鸦》采用了紧张的节拍,而兰斯顿・休斯的《梦想》则有着柔和的节奏。它们听起来是欢快的、悲伤的,还是急切的呢?一首诗的“音乐性”往往反映了它的情感基调。)”可知,下文内容围绕大声朗读诗歌展开。选项A“Poems are meant to be heard.(诗歌就是用来被聆听的。)”强调了诗歌需要被听到,与大声朗读相呼应,符合该段语境。故选A。 (2)题解析: 空处为小标题。为本段主要内容。根据下文“Understanding a poem’s historical, cultural, or biographical context enriches interpretation. It will help you a lot to find out when the poem was written or what the poet’s life was like. But don’t stress — even a quick Google search can add meaning.(理解一首诗的历史、文化或作者生平背景可以丰富对它的解读。弄清楚这首诗创作于何时,或者诗人的生活是怎样的,这会对你有很大帮助。但也不必过于紧张——即使只是快速地在谷歌上搜索一下也能增添对诗歌的理解。)”可知,本段主要讲的是了解诗歌的背景知识。选项B“Learn the background of the poem.(了解诗歌的背景)”符合该段主旨,与本段内容相符。故选B。 (3)题解析: 根据上文“Poems don’t always have one right explanation.(诗歌并不总是只有一个正确的解释。)”以及下文“Maybe Shakespeare’s Sonnet 18 is both a love poem and a joke about clichés (陈词滥调).(也许莎士比亚的《十四行诗第18首》既是一首爱情诗,也是对陈词滥调的一种调侃。)”可知,上下文都在说诗歌理解的不确定性。选项F“If a line feels puzzling, write down your guesses.(如果一行诗让你感到困惑,写下你的猜测。)”与接受困惑以及诗歌解释的不确定性相契合,符合上下文语境。故选F。 (4)题解析: 根据上文“Let your emotions guide your understanding. If a line reminds you of a personal experience, write down your thoughts or share them with a friend.(让你的情感引导你的理解。如果一行诗让你想起一段个人经历,写下你的想法,或者和朋友分享一下。)”可知,上文强调了诗歌与个人的联系。选项D“Poetry is alive when it speaks to you.(当诗歌与你产生共鸣时,它就是有生命力的。)”进一步说明了诗歌与个人的关联,符合该段语境。故选D。 (5)题解析: 根据上文“Appreciating poetry is both an art and a practice — requiring attention to form, context, and personal reflection. As Eliot wrote, poetry “communicates before it is understood”, inviting us to return, rethink, and rediscover its magic endlessly.(欣赏诗歌既是一门艺术,也是一种实践——需要关注诗歌的形式、创作背景以及个人的思考感悟。正如艾略特所写的那样,诗歌“在被理解之前就已经传达了信息”,它邀请我们不断回味、重新思考,并不断重新发现它的魅力。)”可知,上文总结了欣赏诗歌的要点以及诗歌的魅力。选项G“Grab a poem, read it aloud, and let yourself enjoy the magic of it.(拿起一首诗,大声朗读,让自己享受它的魔力。)”呼应了前文提到的欣赏诗歌的方式,同时鼓励读者去体验诗歌的魅力,符合文章结尾的语境。故选G。 Passage 1 (25-26高二上·浙江浙东北ZDB联盟·期中)When something goes wrong, do you tend to bounce back or fall apart?

Less than 20 percent of people successfully achieve their goal the first time around. It’s normal and expected for setbacks to occur(意识到这很正常。只有不到20%的人第一次就成功实现了自己的目标。出现挫折是正常的,也是意料之中的)”以及后文“Knowing this, it’s important to anticipate that the main task will be how to effectively manage the setback when it arises.(知道了这一点,重要的是要预见到,当挫折出现时,主要任务是如何有效地管理挫折)”可知,上文提到了发生挫折很正常,后文提到了预见挫折。由此可知,重要的是预知挑战出现的时间,F选项“换句话说,问题不在于挑战是否会发生,而在于何时发生”符合语境,故选F。 (3)题解析: 根据上文“Learn from the past.(汲取过去的经验教训)”以及后文“Think about what has helped you through tough times. You can even write about past events in a journal to help you see the patterns of how you behave and to help guide you in the future.(想想是什么帮助你度过了困难时期。你甚至可以把过去的事情写在日记里,这样可以帮助你了解自己的行为模式,并帮助你在未来指导自己)”可知,本段的主旨是回忆过去是如何应对困难的,汲取过去的经验教训,C选项中past对应上文past。由此可知,C选项“想想你过去是如何应对困难的”符合语境,故选C。 (4)题解析: 根据后文“Tend to your own needs and feelings.

A new fitness trend has given a fresh name to these super low-intensity (低强度) activities: “zone zero” exercise. 2 . It generally refers to any activity in which your heart rate stays below half of its maximum capacity, such as taking an slow walk after dinner, going for an easy bike ride, playing with your kids or doing light housework. 3 . If you spend most of your time sitting, even adding a modest amount of movement to your day can help to improve your health. Over time, moving more step by step and at gradually higher intensities can improve your balance, muscle strength and endurance, too. Some studies suggest that people who are completely inactive face a significantly higher death rate compared with those who move slightly more. If zone zero activity is the only movement in your routine, the experts recommended incorporating (融入) it as often as possible throughout your day. 4 . Zone zero shouldn’t replace more intense exercise. However, if you regularly exercise at moderate or high intensities, zone zero training can be a useful complement but not a substitute (替代). 5 . But on rest days, it can be a worthwhile form of active rest or recovery. Don’t overcomplicate it. Giving the activities of everyday life a seemingly formal name may motivate some people, especially those who have felt excluded from more intense fitness spaces. But the key point is to increase your daily movement in whatever way feels manageable and sustainable. A. Less active people may benefit more from zone zero B. It can also be a helpful start to more intense exercise C. But a casual walk or a good stretch might not seem out of reach D. Exercise such as running with a group helps you to be more social E. Exercise requiring more effort will lead to greater fitness benefits F. Zone zero training is meant to be so easy that it feels almost effortless G. The benefits of physical activity go far beyond just physical fitness 【答案】1. C 2. F 3. A 4. B 5. E 【解析】【导语】 本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了新兴的“零区域”锻炼趋势,即低强度活动。文章解释了这种活动的定义和益处,指出它适合日常锻炼,但不应替代高强度锻炼,强调增加日常运动量的重要性。 (1)题解析: 上文“When you’re exhausted, the thought of putting on gym clothes and pushing yourself to work out can feel impossible.(当你筋疲力尽时,一想到穿上运动服,强迫自己去锻炼,就会觉得不可能。)”描述了人在疲惫时不想去进行高强度锻炼的情况;C选项“But a casual walk or a good stretch might not seem out of reach.(但是,随意地散散步或者好好地伸展一下身体似乎并非遥不可及。)”与上文形成转折,指出虽然不想高强度锻炼,但像散步、伸展这种低强度活动还是可行的,同时引出下文“ A new fitness trend has given a fresh name to these super low-intensity (低强度) activities: “zone zero” exercise.(新兴的健身潮流为这类超低强度运动赋予了一个全新名称:“零区域”锻炼)”中新的锻炼趋势,上下文逻辑连贯。故选C。 (2)题解析: 下文“It generally refers to any activity in which your heart rate stays below half of its maximum capacity, such as taking an slow walk after dinner, going for an easy bike ride, playing with your kids or doing light housework.(它通常指的是任何心率保持在最大心率一半以下的活动,比如晚饭后慢走、轻松骑自行车、和孩子玩耍或做轻家务。)”具体解释了“zone zero”锻炼是什么;F选项“Zone zero training is meant to be so easy that it feels almost effortless.(零区训练的目的是让它非常简单,几乎不费力气。)”引出了对“zone zero”锻炼的介绍,且与下文描述的这种锻炼强度低相呼应,符合题意。故选F。 (3)题解析: 下文“If you spend most of your time sitting, even adding a modest amount of movement to your day can help to improve your health.(如果你大部分时间都是坐着,即使每天增加少量的运动也能有助于改善你的健康。)”说明了对于平时运动少的人,“zone zero”活动能带来好处;A选项“Less active people may benefit more from zone zero(不太活跃的人可能从零区活动中受益更多)”与下文内容相符,符合题意。故选A。 (4)题解析: 上文“If zone zero activity is the only movement in your routine, the experts recommended incorporating (融入) it as often as possible throughout your day.(如果零区活动是你日常活动中唯一的运动,专家建议在一整天中尽可能多地融入它。)”说明了“zone zero”活动在日常运动中的重要性;B选项“It can also be a helpful start to more intense exercise(它也可以成为更激烈运动的有益开端)”进一步说明了“zone zero”活动的作用,即可以为更激烈的运动做准备,符合题意。故选B。 (5)题解析: 上文“Zone zero shouldn’t replace more intense exercise. However, if you regularly exercise at moderate or high intensities, zone zero training can be a useful complement but not a substitute (替代).(零区不应该取代更高强度的锻炼。然而,如果你经常进行中等或高强度的锻炼,零区训练可以是一个有用的补充,但不是替代品。)”说明了“zone zero”锻炼不能替代高强度锻炼,但可以作为补充;E选项“Exercise requiring more effort will lead to greater fitness benefits(需要更多努力的锻炼会带来更大的健康益处)”与上文内容相呼应,强调了高强度锻炼的重要性,符合题意。故选E。 Passage 3 (25-26高二上·浙江9+1联盟-11月·期中)How to Do Shadow Work Do you ever ask yourself, “Why did I do that?” or “Why did I say that?” Chances are, if you’ve done something out of character, it’s because of your Shadow — the personality traits and thoughts you wish you didn’t have, namely, your “darker” side. So, is there anything we can do to help? Absolutely! That’s where Shadow work comes in. 1 . Here are some tips on how to practice it. Take a step back and look at your life objectively. 2 . Then ask yourself, “Why did that get to me? Why did I feel that way? What triggered that behavior or emotion?” Answering these questions will help you recognize behavioral patterns and feelings. 3 . Healing takes time, but progress won’t be made unless you’re completely honest with yourself. We know pulling back the curtain on your most undesirable traits is more than difficult, but you can do it. Know that even if the truth is hard to swallow, you’re learning from it, and it’s leading you to become the best version of yourself. Question your reactions. Pause, reflect, and understand why you feel a certain way before you instinctively react. If you feel like you’re about to judge someone or make a rude comment, stop and question, “What triggered me to think this?” 4 . Acknowledge, understand, and forgive your insecurities. Since you are aware of the impacts of your “darker” side, it’s time to give yourself space to move on. Life is all about change; you’re expected to change with it, but don’t be afraid to question those changes. As you evolve (逐步发展), acknowledge the lesser parts of yourself you want to change, learn to understand why your thinking may have changed, and 5 . A. Be honest with yourself B. Write your shadow a letter C. then make peace with yourself D. integrate them into your whole self E. Imagine you’ re a bystander in your own life F. This encourages positive thoughts and actions G. It’s the act of facing and handling your darker parts 【答案】1. G 2. E 3. A 4. F 5. C 【解析】【导语】 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了“阴影工作”的定义,以及客观审视生活、诚实面对自我等四项践行“阴影工作”的具体方法。 (1)题解析: 由上文“That’s where Shadow work comes in. (这就是阴影工作的用武之地。)”可知,本空需解释“阴影工作”的定义;后文“Here are some tips on how to practice it. (以下是一些践行它的建议。)”围绕“如何做”展开,故G选项“It’s the act of facing and handling your darker parts. (它是面对并处理你内心阴暗面的行为。)”能承上启下,既明确“阴影工作”的核心,又衔接后文的实践方法。G项中的“darker parts”与前文“darker side”呼应。故选G。 (2)题解析: 由上文“Take a step back and look at your life objectively. (退后一步,客观地审视自己的生活。)”可知,本空需给出“客观审视”的具体方式;后文围绕“追问行为和情绪的原因”展开,故E选项“Imagine you’re a bystander in your own life. (想象你是自己生活中的旁观者。)”符合“客观”的要求,为后文的自我追问提供前提。E项中的“bystander (旁观者)”与“objectively (客观地)”直接呼应。故选E。 (3)题解析: 由后文“Healing takes time, but progress won’t be made unless you’re completely honest with yourself. (疗愈需要时间,但除非你对自己完全诚实,否则不会有进展。)”可知,本空需概括本段核心 ——“诚实面对自我”;A选项“Be honest with yourself (对自己诚实)”直接点明主题,是本段内容的总起,后文围绕“诚实的难度与意义”展开,逻辑连贯。故选A。 (4)题解析: 由上文“Pause, reflect, and understand why you feel a certain way before you instinctively react. (在本能反应之前,停下来反思,理解自己为何会有某种感受。)”及追问示例可知,本空需说明“质疑反应”的作用;F选项“This encourages positive thoughts and actions (这会催生积极的想法和行为)”承接前文的反思行为,解释其积极效果,符合“提出方法+说明意义”的逻辑。故选F。 (5)题解析: 由上文“As you evolve (逐步发展), acknowledge the lesser parts of yourself you want to change, learn to understand why your thinking may have changed (随着你的发展,承认你想要改变的自己不那么好的部分,学会理解为什么你的想法可能会改变)”可知,本空需延续“承认—理解—原谅”的递进逻辑;C选项“then make peace with yourself (然后与自己和解)”是前文一系列行动的最终目标,then体现逻辑递进,与“acknowledge”以及“understand”形成完整的疗愈链条。故选C。 Passage 4 (25-26高二上·浙江浙里特色联盟-11月·期中)When I was a kid, my siblings (兄弟姐妹) and I were not allowed to say “I’m bored.” 1 I always assumed my parents made this rule to spare themselves from hearing us complain, but now I wonder if it had deeper historical roots. 2 For a long time, it has been viewed as an unpleasant, even wrong feeling. In ancient times, if someone showed the signs of boredom, they were wrong of “acedia,” a feeling of being apart that was seen as rude to the world and its creator. The growth of factories and time-saving devices only strengthened our wish to use time well. 3 Many parents try to keep their children from getting bored, either to stop complaints or because they think boredom wastes a chance to get ahead. None of these attitudes toward boredom strike me as healthy or beneficial. We need to move past our fear of boredom and start to see it as an unavoidable, necessary, and even advantageous experience. 4 It is a very unpleasant (and short) state that often pushes us to try new ideas. When we take away children’s boredom by giving them instant and shallow activities, we greatly lower their chances of learning new and challenging things well. 5 Instead, we should trust that children will find ways to amuse themselves — and maybe even learn to accept boredom as a gift, a chance to think, to create, to discover. As we learn to sit with boredom, we may find that it is not our enemy but our helper, something we need for a life of meaning and invention. A. Boredom, at its best, brings creativity. B. As a culture, we have a bad relationship with boredom. C. Today, we continue to view boredom with strong dislike. D. Schools should add more creative classes to prevent boredom. E. We should not fill every minute of our kids’ days with activities. F. If we were, we were instantly given a task, so we learned to avoid it. G. Modern technology has made boredom a rare experience for children. 【答案】1. F 2. B 3. C 4. A 5. E 【解析】【导语】 本文是一篇说明文,主要探讨了人们对无聊的传统负面看法及历史根源,提出应正视无聊,将其视为有价值的体验,反对用活动填满孩子的时间。 (1)题解析: 根据前文“When I was a kid, my siblings (兄弟姐妹) and I were not allowed to say “I’m bored.” (我小时候,父母不允许我和兄弟姐妹说“我好无聊”。)”可知,空格处应说明违反这一规定的后果,F选项“If we were, we were instantly given a task, so we learned to avoid it. (如果我们说了,就会立刻被分配一个任务,所以我们学会了避免说这句话。)”中的“If we were”对应前文的“not allowed to say”,解释了“避免说”的原因,符合语境。故选F项。 (2)题解析: 根据后文“For a long time, it has been viewed as an unpleasant, even wrong feeling. (长期以来,它一直被视为一种令人不快甚至错误的感觉。)”中的“it”指代“boredom(无聊)”,且后文讲述了古代及工业时代人们对无聊的负面态度,B选项“As a culture, we have a bad relationship with boredom. (作为一种文化,我们与无聊有着糟糕的关系。)”总领本段,概括了人们对无聊的负面认知,符合语境。故选B项。 (3)题解析: 根据前文“The growth of factories and time-saving devices only strengthened our wish to use time well. (工厂的发展和省时设备的出现,进一步强化了我们合理利用时间的愿望。)”和后文“Many parents try to keep their children from getting bored, either to stop complaints or because they think boredom wastes a chance to get ahead. (许多父母试图让孩子避免无聊,要么是为了阻止他们抱怨,要么是因为他们认为无聊浪费了取得进步的机会。)”可知,空格处应衔接过去与现在对无聊的态度,C选项“Today, we continue to view boredom with strong dislike. (如今,我们仍然对无聊抱有强烈的反感。)”中的“continue”体现了态度的延续性,承接前文的历史态度,引出后文现代父母的做法,符合语境。故选C项。 (4)题解析: 根据前文“We need to move past our fear of boredom and start to see it as an unavoidable, necessary, and even advantageous experience. (我们需要克服对无聊的恐惧,开始将其视为一种不可避免、必要甚至有益的体验。)”和后文“It is a very unpleasant (and short) state that often pushes us to try new ideas. (它是一种非常不愉快(且短暂)的状态,常常促使我们尝试新想法。)”可知,空格处应具体说明无聊的益处,A选项“Boredom, at its best, brings creativity. (无聊在最佳状态下能带来创造力。)”中的“creativity”与后文“try new ideas”相呼应,点明了无聊的优势,符合语境。故选A项。 (5)题解析: 根据后文“Instead, we should trust that children will find ways to amuse themselves — and maybe even learn to accept boredom as a gift, a chance to think, to create, to discover. (相反,我们应该相信孩子们会找到自娱自乐的方式——甚至可能学会接受无聊作为一份礼物,一个思考、创造、发现的机会。)”中的“Instead”可知,空格处应提出与后文相反的错误做法,E选项“We should not fill every minute of our kids’ days with activities. (我们不应该把孩子的每一天都用活动填满。)”与后文“相信孩子能自娱自乐”形成对比,符合“Instead”所体现的转折关系,符合语境。故选E项。 / 学科网(北京)股份有限公司 $
