Passage 2
(25-26高二上·贵州铜仁雅礼高级中学·期中)How to focus on today and do your best
If you want to be successful, then you must appreciate the importance of living in the present. 1 Here are some tips to motivate you to make the most of the present.

4 Remind yourself of where you are by asking yourself, “Is this what I should be doing right now? ” “Am I feeling happy doing this at present? ” “What is the one thing I can do to make today count?” Know your own character well and listen to your feelings.
Schedule some “me time” and make the most of it. Make some time out of your busy schedule to follow a creative hobby, enjoy the beauty of nature or simply some pop culture entertainment. 5

Passage 3
(25-26高二上·贵州六盘水市水城区·期中)Communication is a basic skill for many living creatures. Human beings are not the only ones who communicate. Animals use body language to tell each other how they feel and what they think. 1
Dogs use sounds, body movements, and their tails to communicate. 2 When a dog is happy, its ears will stand up and its eyes will be wide open. The dog will start barking, moving its tail, and running around in circles or jumping up and down to show you that it wants to play. A dog that is afraid will lie on its back and close its eyes. The dog may show its teeth and lower its body so that it is close to the ground. When a dog is angry 3 The dog will try to make itself look as big as possible. Its tail will also stand straight out from its body.
4 An elephant’s sense of smell is highly developed—they can even smell another elephant’s mood or health. Their trunks make various noises (meaning “hungry”, “angry”, etc. )and their ears signal warnings like “Watch out!”. For friendship, they touch trunks and stand close.
Dolphins are also social animals. They live in groups and like showing each other their feelings. When angry, a dolphin may hit its tail on the water—this movement and noise tell others something’s wrong. To send far messages or show strength, it jumps high out of water, falls on its side, and makes loud noise. 5 When tired, they rest in small groups near the water’s surface—don’t disturb them then. These little acts are just how dolphins use body language to communicate, just like other animals do. Understanding animals’ body language bonds us harmoniously with all creatures.
A. These signals work together to show their feelings.
B. Its main body language is showing its teeth and growling.
C. Leaping into the air while playing with friends is their favorite.
D. Its main body language is hiding its teeth and shaking slightly.
E. Another animal that uses sounds more than body language is the elephant.
F. Let’s see how our animal friends communicate with us and each other.
G. Another animal that uses sounds and body language to express itself is the elephant.
Passage 4
(25-26高二上·贵州镇宁民族中学·期中)Lots of people find it hard to get up in the morning and put the blame on the alarm clock. In fact, the key to easy morning wake-up lies in resting your body clock. 1 . Here is how to make one.
• 2 In order to make a change, you need to decide why it’s important. Do you want to get up in time to have breakfast with your family, get in some exercise or just be better prepared for your day? Once you are clear about your reason, tell your family or roommates about the change you want to make.
• Rethink mornings. Now that you know why you want to wake up, consider re-arranging your morning activities. If you want time to have breakfast with your family, save some time the night before by setting out clothes, shoes, and bags. 3 That’s a quarter-hour more you could be sleeping if you bought a coffee maker with a timer.
• Keep your sleep/wake schedule on weekends. If you’re tired out by Friday night, sleeping in on Saturday could sound wonderful. But compensating (弥补) on the weekends actually feeds into your sleepiness the following week, a recent study found. 4 .
• Keep a record and evaluate it weekly. Keep track of your efforts and write down how you feel. After you’ve tried a new method for a week, take a look at your record. 5 If not, take another look at other methods you could try.
A. Get a sleep specialist.
B. Find the right motivation.
C. A better plan for sleep can help.
D. And consider setting a second alarm.
E. If the steps you take are working, keep it up.
F. Stick to your set bedtime and wake-up time, no matter the day.
G. Reconsider the 15 minutes you spend in line at the cafe to get coffee.
Passage 1
(25-26高二上·贵州六盘水市纽绅中学·期中)The three years of high school can produce some of the most memorable moments of your life. To get the most out of your high school experience, it’s important to focus on your studies and spend time exploring your hobbies and friendships. 1
Open yourself up to new experiences. High school is a great time to try new things. 2 For example, you can try out for a sports team, join a band, or even just sit with new people at lunch. That will help you discover new hobbies and make new friends.
Ask for help if you're struggling academically, socially, or emotionally. 3 If you’re worried about a bad grade, or are feeling a bit down, share it with them, and they will be willing to help you.
Get to know the members in your class. 4 Actually, making friends with a few of them will give you a great support network throughout the school year. If you don’t know them, introduce yourself and hold a conversation with them. If you do already know them, ask them some questions about their hobbies so that you can get to know them a little better.
5 Your notes will help you with your homework and study for tests. Besides, it will also help you review what you learnt in class. You can create an outline of the main points of the lecture, and take notes directly on them.

Passage 2
(25-26高二上·贵州贵阳市南湖实验中学·期中)How to develop a positive attitude

3 I’m sure you have heard this saying: “Birds of a feather flock (聚集) together”. If you stay with negative people, you will become negative. On the other hand, if you stay with more positive people, they can also influence your characters and attitudes. You will become more positive as well.
Learn to give praise to others. You don’t need to do this too much. Just do it in a natural way by focusing on the positive side of other people. A few kind words spoken to other people can really make his or her day. 4
Smile and say THANK YOU more. Wherever you are and whatever you do, look for opportunities to offer appreciation to your friends, family members, bosses or any other people you interact (交流互动) with every day.

Passage 3
(25-26高二上·贵州遵义市凤冈县·期中)Growing plants is often seen as a very “green” thing to do, but like many products, they take a huge amount of energy to produce. 1 For example, they use geothermal (地热的) energy to heat greenhouses and solar power to supply electricity and lighting. While home growing doesn’t involve the same carbon footprint as commercial growing, it’s important to consider what we can all do to minimize our own impact while still enjoying growing plants.
Over-consumption of plants is a big issue. It’s so easy to get overexcited when you see all these incredible plants, and you can end up carrying home huge numbers of them. 2 The more plants you have, the more limited your time and resources become, and plants can suffer. This leads to another issue — many people may end up throwing away their plants which don’t look perfect or stop flowering, in a similar way to the world of fast fashion. 3
If you are ready and able to increase your collection, propagate (繁殖) from your own plants rather than buying more, and share plants with others. 4 Meanwhile, we can build a community of like-minded, passionate plant people.
Recycling takes a huge amount of input, which can end up more damaging to the environment, so instead of buying something of lower quality that needs replacing every year, buy fewer things of a higher quality. 5 And they can be passed down the generations.
A. But large collections call for an enormous amount of work.
B. Many commercial growers continue to market their produce.
C. These will last many years and be more cost-effective in the long term.
D. This removes the need to buy plants and encourages a sharing culture.
E. Throwing them away will greatly reduce your gardening footprint on the environment.
F. So it’s important to assess your collection and buy plants you have time to look after.
G. Many large-scale growers have used technology to minimize their impact on the environment.
Passage 4
(25-26高二上·贵州毕节市威宁六校联考·期中)Good communication isn’t just about the words we say. Our body language, the non-verbal signals we send, is equally important. It can help us build trust, look confident, and connect better with others. 1 .
Keep an open stance(姿态). Stand or sit straight with your shoulders loose and legs a bit apart. 2 . Don’t cross your arms or legs, as it can make you seem defensive. Let your arms hang naturally to look friendly. Make eye contact about 60-70% of the time to show you’re interested.
Use hand gestures carefully. 3 . Use clear hand movements, like opening your hands upward, to make important points stand out. Don’t fidget(坐立不安), like touching your face or clothes, as it shows you’re nervous. As you talk, use your hands to emphasize what you’re saying, or draw people’s attention to a certain area.
4 . Your face can show a lot of feelings. A real smile makes you seem warm and easy to talk to. Be careful of small expressions on your face. Don’t raise your eyebrows too much, as it can make you seem angry or doubtful. Nodding your head a bit when others are talking to you shows that you’re listening.
Try to understand other people’s body language. Notice signs of stress, such as crossed arms or tapping feet. A relaxed body and open hands usually mean someone is calm. 5 , like shifting restlessly in their seat or checking the time. Understanding these helps you talk to them better.
By practicing these, you can become much better at non-verbal communication. This will help you build better relationships, and have more influence in your life.
A. This shows you’re confident
B. Learn to use facial expressions well
C. Cross your arms to show you are in control
D. Look for signs that someone is not interested
E. Nodding your head a lot can make you seem impatient
F. Hand movements can change how your message is received
G. Here are four simple ways to get better at non-verbal communication
Passage 5
(25-26高二上·贵州黔西南州金成实验学校·期中)How Laughing at Yourself Makes You Attractive
Have you ever embarrassed yourself in public and got laughed at for it ? 1 And it’s okay—we should even have a laugh about them.

● Laughing at yourself helps increase your confidence. When you’re able to stay optimistic and laugh at yourself, you are likely to be more successful in life. 3 .More importantly, it helps you realize your own weaknesses, so you know which areas to do better in.
● 4 .Laughing at someone else may hurt their feelings even if you didn’t intend to, while laughing at yourself does not.—You might even bring a smile to their faces. People will like it, because it shows that you have the courage to do so and you’re being real about your imperfections.
5 .So instead of blaming yourself, try to think of your mistakes, in a positive way and accept yourself just as you are. Learn to laugh at yourself and you will be more attractive.

Passage 6
(25-26高二上·贵阳市观山湖区第一高级中学·期中)As an enthusiastic reader, I’ve always believed that the key to understanding the world lies in the pages of a book. 1 They introduce us to characters who feel as real as the people around us. This connection between readers and the text is what makes literature so powerful, and it’s why I value my personal library. It’s a collection that reflects my journey through the world of words.
My library is not vast, but each book is carefully chosen. I have a mix of types in my collection, ranging from classic literature to contemporary fiction. 2 Each type offers a different perspective, a new way of looking at life. While some books challenge my thinking, others provide comfort. It’s important to have a balance. A well-organized library is like a well-balanced diet for the mind.
Among my favourites are the works of Jane Austen and George Orwell. Austen's sharp observations on society and relationships are timeless. Her characters are imperfect yet charming. Orwell, on the other hand, offers a stark (冷峻的) view of the world. 3 Both authors, though different in style, have taught me invaluable lessons about humanity.
4 Biographies (传记) and life stories offer insights into the lives of extraordinary individuals. They remind us that greatness comes in many forms. Reading about the struggles and successes of others can be incredibly inspiring. It’s a reminder that we all have the potential to make a difference. These stories encourage me to reflect on my own life and what I wish to leave behind.
My library is a reflection of who I am. It’s a sign of my love of learning and my desire to understand the world. Each book is a stepping stone on my journey of discovery. They are companions in loneliness and guides in times of uncertainty. 5
A. I also enjoy non-fiction.
B. I believe in the power of variety.
C. My library goes beyond a collection of books.
D. His stories are a warning and a call to action.
E. Through them, I continue to explore, to grow, and to dream.
F. The stories we read shape our world view and broaden our minds.
G. Historical fiction, in particular, holds a special place in my heart.
Passage 1
(25-26高二上·贵州省部分学校·期中)Imagine walking into your local library and borrowing a new clothing item instead of a book. 1 . Clothing libraries, where visitors can check out clothes, are appearing online and even inside traditional book libraries.
Fast fashion has enabled people to find their style and express themselves quickly and cheaply. 2 . The fashion industry produces about 175 million tons of textiles (纺织品) annually, yet only 6. 6 million tons are actually used. The remaining 169 million tons are discarded in landfills. Reusing clothes can significantly lower one’s carbon footprints. This has increased the popularity of clothing libraries, which focus on recycling and reusing. Initially offering expensive or special occasion wear, many now also include everyday clothing.
Although most clothing libraries operate online, Lizzie chose to place them in local libraries instead. She founded an organization in 2023 to promote clothing exchanges at Oswestry Library. 3 . This helps her see an opportunity to advance secondhand fashion and attract visitors. Lizzie believed libraries provided the perfect comfortable setting for trying new styles.
4 . Many clothing exchanges use a point system requiring donations, but at Oswestry Library, only a library card was needed. With the card, users could check out books or clothing for three weeks and renew them. Each piece of clothing has a barcode(条形码) with the donor’s name, which makes clothes feel special.
The Oswestry project perfectly combines fashion with literature, proving that a library visit can refresh one’s mind, wallet, and wardrobe. This initiative (新方案) benefits the local library, community, and organizers. For Lizzie, the greatest joy lies in seeing people discover and value recycled clothing. 5 .
A. However, it does come at a cost
B. It also helps reduce waste in the book industry
C. It quickly grew into a clothing lending program
D. This new idea is already a reality in some places
E. A famous designer decided to start her own business
F. The Oswestry clothing library works just like its book service
G. This creates a wonderful feeling of shared community and responsibility
Passage 2
(25-26高二上·贵州县中新学校联考·期中)How Positive Psychology Boosts Physical Health
Many people think of health as just eating well and exercising, but positive psychology shows that our mental state plays a key role in physical well-being too. 1 Research has found that positive emotions like joy, gratitude, and optimism aren’t just “nice to have” — they actually protect our bodies.
One study had followed 1,000 adults for 10 years. 2 Those who reported feeling happy and hopeful most days had 30% fewer cases of heart disease than those who often felt stressed or sad. Another research project looked at people with chronic pain. 3 Participants who practiced daily gratitude — writing down three things they were thankful for — said their pain levels dropped by 20% after two months.
Why does this happen? 4 When we feel positive, our bodies release less cortisol, the “stress hormone” that raises blood pressure and weakens the immune system. Positive emotions also boost the production of endorphins, which reduce pain and improve mood. 5 They found even small acts of positivity, like smiling at a stranger or laughing with a friend, can trigger these physical changes.
You don’t need big efforts to gain these benefits. Try starting your day by naming one thing you’re looking forward to, or ending it by noting a small joy. Over time, these tiny steps can strengthen your body’s defenses and make you healthier overall.
A. The answer lies in how our bodies respond to emotions.
B. It’s not surprising that positive people are healthier.
C. These emotions can also help us build better relationships.
D. Its findings offered strong support for this connection.
E. Even some doctors have begun to pay attention to this field.
F. Participants were asked to keep a record of their daily emotions.
G. Even small changes in our mental state can affect our physical health.
Passage 3
(25-26高二上·贵州·期中)How to Overcome Social Anxiety
Social anxiety can make everyday interactions deeply stressful, but practical strategies can help you navigate these situations more comfortably.
Be Aware of Your Body Language
People with social anxiety often display closed-off or defensive body language, such as crossing their arms, speaking quietly or standing far away from other people. Actively change this by adopting an open posture — face others, speak a bit louder than usual, and respect personal space but not create too much distance. 1 .
2
Anxious thoughts often exaggerate the risks of social interactions. You might imagine the worst cases or assume others will judge you negatively. Challenge these thoughts by asking yourself: “Is it truly likely that everyone will stare and walk away?” Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) techniques can help you replace negative thoughts with more realistic ones. With practice, you'll realize that most social fears are unfounded.
Gradual Exposure is Key
You don't have to force yourself into every social event. Prioritize and start with smaller, less frightening situations. 3 . While it may feel stressful and tiring initially, this process helps build confidence and reduces anxiety over time. Acknowledge your progress and reward yourself for using positive coping strategies.
Come prepared, But Not Too prepared
If small talk worries you, it's okay to have a few conversation starters ready, but avoid preparing everything beforehand. 4 . Focus on asking open-ended questions and showing genuine interest in others. Remember, the goal is connection, not perfection.
Finally, remember a simple but powerful tool: your breath. When anxiety rises, pause and focus on your breath. 5 . Deep, calm breathing can center your mind and ease your physical tension. However, overcoming social anxiety is a process — be patient with yourself and celebrate small victories along the way.
A. Trust Your Instincts
B. Examine Your Thoughts
C. It may sound simple, but it works
D. They are often based on unrealistic assumptions
E. Doing so can actually increase pressure and make interactions feel unnatural
F. These small adjustments can prevent you from being ignored and feeling isolated
G. Gradually exposing yourself to social settings, rather than avoiding them entirely, is crucial

Passage 3
(25-26高二上·贵州六盘水市水城区·期中)Communication is a basic skill for many living creatures. Human beings are not the only ones who communicate. Animals use body language to tell each other how they feel and what they think. 1
Dogs use sounds, body movements, and their tails to communicate. 2 When a dog is happy, its ears will stand up and its eyes will be wide open. The dog will start barking, moving its tail, and running around in circles or jumping up and down to show you that it wants to play. A dog that is afraid will lie on its back and close its eyes. The dog may show its teeth and lower its body so that it is close to the ground. When a dog is angry 3 The dog will try to make itself look as big as possible. Its tail will also stand straight out from its body.
4 An elephant’s sense of smell is highly developed—they can even smell another elephant’s mood or health. Their trunks make various noises (meaning “hungry”, “angry”, etc. )and their ears signal warnings like “Watch out!”. For friendship, they touch trunks and stand close.
Dolphins are also social animals. They live in groups and like showing each other their feelings. When angry, a dolphin may hit its tail on the water—this movement and noise tell others something’s wrong. To send far messages or show strength, it jumps high out of water, falls on its side, and makes loud noise. 5 When tired, they rest in small groups near the water’s surface—don’t disturb them then. These little acts are just how dolphins use body language to communicate, just like other animals do. Understanding animals’ body language bonds us harmoniously with all creatures.
A. These signals work together to show their feelings.
B. Its main body language is showing its teeth and growling.
C. Leaping into the air while playing with friends is their favorite.
D. Its main body language is hiding its teeth and shaking slightly.
E. Another animal that uses sounds more than body language is the elephant.
F. Let’s see how our animal friends communicate with us and each other.

Passage 3
(25-26高二上·贵州遵义市凤冈县·期中)Growing plants is often seen as a very “green” thing to do, but like many products, they take a huge amount of energy to produce. 1 For example, they use geothermal (地热的) energy to heat greenhouses and solar power to supply electricity and lighting. While home growing doesn’t involve the same carbon footprint as commercial growing, it’s important to consider what we can all do to minimize our own impact while still enjoying growing plants.
Over-consumption of plants is a big issue. It’s so easy to get overexcited when you see all these incredible plants, and you can end up carrying home huge numbers of them. 2 The more plants you have, the more limited your time and resources become, and plants can suffer. This leads to another issue — many people may end up throwing away their plants which don’t look perfect or stop flowering, in a similar way to the world of fast fashion. 3
If you are ready and able to increase your collection, propagate (繁殖) from your own plants rather than buying more, and share plants with others. 4 Meanwhile, we can build a community of like-minded, passionate plant people.
Recycling takes a huge amount of input, which can end up more damaging to the environment, so instead of buying something of lower quality that needs replacing every year, buy fewer things of a higher quality. 5 And they can be passed down the generations.
A. But large collections call for an enormous amount of work.
B. Many commercial growers continue to market their produce.
C. These will last many years and be more cost-effective in the long term.
D. This removes the need to buy plants and encourages a sharing culture.
E. Throwing them away will greatly reduce your gardening footprint on the environment.
F. So it’s important to assess your collection and buy plants you have time to look after.
G. Many large-scale growers have used technology to minimize their impact on the environment.
【答案】1. G 2. A 3. F 4. D 5. C
【解析】【导语】
这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了种植植物虽被视为环保之举,但耗能量大。家庭种植需减少环境影响,应避免过度购买,通过自身繁殖、分享植物及购买优质产品等方式践行环保。
(1)题解析:
根据前文“Growing plants is often seen as a very “green” thing to do, but like many products, they take a huge amount of energy to produce.(种植植物通常被视为一件非常“绿色”的事情,但像许多产品一样,它们需要大量的能源来生产。)”指出种植植物需消耗大量能源,后文“For example, they use geothermal (地热的) energy to heat greenhouses and solar power to supply electricity and lighting.(例如,他们利用地热能为温室供暖,利用太阳能供电和照明。)”举例利用地热加热温室、太阳能供电照明,空格需起到“引出大规模种植者的环保举措”的过渡作用。G项“Many large-scale growers have used technology to minimize their impact on the environment.(许多大型种植者利用技术将他们对环境的影响降到最低。)”中“large-scale growers”对应后文“commercial growing”,“used technology to minimize their impact”直接呼应后文地热、太阳能的具体例子,构成“总述举措→具体例证”的逻辑。故选G项。
(2)题解析:
根据前文“It’s so easy to get overexcited when you see all these incredible plants, and you can end up carrying home huge numbers of them.(当你看到这些不可思议的植物时,你很容易过度兴奋,最后你可能会带回家大量的植物。)”提到人们容易过度购买植物,导致收集量过大,后文“The more plants you have, the more limited your time and resources become, and plants can suffer.(你拥有的植物越多,你的时间和资源就越有限,植物就会遭殃。)”提到植物越多,时间和资源越有限,植物会受损,空格需体现“大量收集植物的负面影响”,形成转折衔接。A项“But large collections call for an enormous amount of work.(但大量收藏需要大量的工作。)”中“large collections”承接前文“huge numbers of them”,“call for an enormous amount of work”直接引出后文“时间资源有限、植物受损”的结果,逻辑连贯;故选A项。
(3)题解析:
根据前文“This leads to another issue — many people may end up throwing away their plants which don’t look perfect or stop flowering, in a similar way to the world of fast fashion.(这就导致了另一个问题——许多人最终可能会扔掉那些看起来不完美或停止开花的植物,就像快时尚的世界一样。)”指出过度收集导致植物受损,进而被丢弃的问题,空格需给出 “避免过度购买、合理收集” 的建议,回应前文问题。F项“So it’s important to assess your collection and buy plants you have time to look after.(所以评估你的收藏并购买你有时间照顾的植物是很重要的。)”中“assess your collection”、“buy plants you have time to look after”直接针对“过度购买、无暇照料”的核心问题,符合逻辑。故选F项。
(4)题解析:
根据前文“If you are ready and able to increase your collection, propagate (繁殖) from your own plants rather than buying more, and share plants with others.(如果你准备好并且能够增加你的收藏,从你自己的植物中繁殖,而不是购买更多的植物,并与他人分享植物。)”建议通过繁殖自身植物或与他人分享来增加收集量,而非购买,空格需说明该建议的好处。D项“This removes the need to buy plants and encourages a sharing culture.(这消除了购买植物的需要,并鼓励了一种分享文化。)”中“This”指代前文“propagate from your own plants and share with others”,“removes the need to buy plants”、“encourages a sharing culture”均是该建议的积极影响,逻辑通顺。故选D项。
(5)题解析:
根据前文“Recycling takes a huge amount of input, which can end up more damaging to the environment, so instead of buying something of lower quality that needs replacing every year, buy fewer things of a higher quality.(回收需要大量的投入,这最终可能会对环境造成更大的破坏,所以与其购买每年需要更换的低质量的东西,不如少买高质量的东西。)”建议购买少量高质量植物,而非每年更换低质量产品,空格需说明高质量植物的优势。C项“These will last many years and be more cost-effective in the long term.( 这些将持续多年,从长远来看更具成本效益。)”中“These”指代前文“fewer things of a higher quality”,“last many years”、“more cost-effective”直接呼应“无需每年更换” 的核心优势,且后文“passed down the generations(代代相传)”进一步强化“耐用”的特点,语义连贯。故选C项。
Passage 4
(25-26高二上·贵州毕节市威宁六校联考·期中)Good communication isn’t just about the words we say. Our body language, the non-verbal signals we send, is equally important. It can help us build trust, look confident, and connect better with others. 1 .
Keep an open stance(姿态). Stand or sit straight with your shoulders loose and legs a bit apart. 2 . Don’t cross your arms or legs, as it can make you seem defensive. Let your arms hang naturally to look friendly. Make eye contact about 60-70% of the time to show you’re interested.
Use hand gestures carefully. 3 . Use clear hand movements, like opening your hands upward, to make important points stand out. Don’t fidget(坐立不安), like touching your face or clothes, as it shows you’re nervous. As you talk, use your hands to emphasize what you’re saying, or draw people’s attention to a certain area.
4 . Your face can show a lot of feelings. A real smile makes you seem warm and easy to talk to. Be careful of small expressions on your face. Don’t raise your eyebrows too much, as it can make you seem angry or doubtful. Nodding your head a bit when others are talking to you shows that you’re listening.
Try to understand other people’s body language. Notice signs of stress, such as crossed arms or tapping feet. A relaxed body and open hands usually mean someone is calm. 5 , like shifting restlessly in their seat or checking the time. Understanding these helps you talk to them better.
By practicing these, you can become much better at non-verbal communication. This will help you build better relationships, and have more influence in your life.
A. This shows you’re confident
B. Learn to use facial expressions well
C. Cross your arms to show you are in control

本文是一篇说明文,介绍了非语言沟通(身体语言)的重要性,并从保持开放姿态、谨慎使用手势、善用面部表情、理解他人身体语言四个方面给出提升非语言沟通能力的方法。
(1)题解析:
根据上文“Good communication isn’t just about the words we say. Our body language, the non-verbal signals we send, is equally important. It can help us build trust, look confident, and connect better with others.(良好的沟通不仅仅是我们所说的话。我们的肢体语言,即我们发出的非语言信号,同样重要。它可以帮助我们建立信任,看起来自信,并更好地与他人联系)”可知上文提到了肢体语言很重要,可推理出此处是在引出关于肢体语言沟通的话题,与G项“Here are four simple ways to get better at non-verbal communication(这里有四个提高非语言沟通能力的简单方法)”相呼应,起到承上启下的作用,故选G项。
(2)题解析:
根据上文“Keep an open stance(姿态). Stand or sit straight with your shoulders loose and legs a bit apart.(保持开放的姿态。站直或坐直,肩膀放松,双腿稍微分开)”以及下文“Don’t cross your arms or legs, as it can make you seem defensive. Let your arms hang naturally to look friendly.(不要交叉双臂或双腿,因为这会让你看起来有防御性。让手臂自然下垂看起来更友好)”可知上下文说的是正确的做法,可推理出空白处表达的是正确的姿势的好处,与A项“This shows you’re confident(这表明你很自信)”表达的含义一致,故选A项。
(3)题解析:
根据上文“Use hand gestures carefully.(小心使用手势)”以及下文“Use clear hand movements, like opening your hands upward, to make important points stand out. Don’t fidget(坐立不安), like touching your face or clothes, as it shows you’re nervous. As you talk, use your hands to emphasize what you’re saying, or draw people’s attention to a certain area.(使用清晰的手部动作,比如向上张开双手,让重点突出。不要坐立不安,比如摸脸或衣服,因为这表明你很紧张。当你说话时,用你的手来强调你所说的话,或者把人们的注意力吸引到某个区域)”可知上文说的是要正确地使用手部动作,可推理出此处说的是手部动作会影响信息传达的效果,与F项“Hand movements can change how your message is received(手部动作可以改变你的信息被接收的方式)”表达的含义一致,故选F项。
(4)题解析:
根据下文“Your face can show a lot of feelings. A real smile makes you seem warm and easy to talk to. Be careful of small expressions on your face. Don’t raise your eyebrows too much, as it can make you seem angry or doubtful. Nodding your head a bit when others are talking to you shows that you’re listening.(你的脸可以表现出很多情感。一个真诚的微笑会让你看起来很温暖,很容易交谈。注意脸上的小表情。不要过度扬眉,因为这会让你看起来生气或怀疑。当别人和你说话时,稍微点头表明你在听)”可知下文说的是正确的面部表情会带来积极的效果,而不恰当的面部表情会让你看起来生气或怀疑,可推理出空白处说的是要正确地使用面部表情,与B项“Learn to use facial expressions well(学会很好地使用面部表情)”表达的含义一致,故选B项。
(5)题解析:
根据上文“Try to understand other people’s body language. Notice signs of stress, such as crossed arms or tapping feet. A relaxed body and open hands usually mean someone is calm.(试着理解别人的肢体语言。注意压力的迹象,比如交叉双臂或跺脚。放松的身体和张开的手通常意味着某人很平静)”以及下文“like shifting restlessly in their seat or checking the time.(比如在座位上不安地挪动或看时间)”可知上文提到了交叉双臂或跺脚,下文提到了在座位上不安地挪动或看时间,可推理出空白处说的是寻找别人不感兴趣的迹象,与D项“Look for signs that someone is not interested(寻找某人不感兴趣的迹象)”表达的含义一致,故选D项。

Passage 6
(25-26高二上·贵阳市观山湖区第一高级中学·期中)As an enthusiastic reader, I’ve always believed that the key to understanding the world lies in the pages of a book. 1 They introduce us to characters who feel as real as the people around us. This connection between readers and the text is what makes literature so powerful, and it’s why I value my personal library. It’s a collection that reflects my journey through the world of words.
My library is not vast, but each book is carefully chosen. I have a mix of types in my collection, ranging from classic literature to contemporary fiction. 2 Each type offers a different perspective, a new way of looking at life. While some books challenge my thinking, others provide comfort. It’s important to have a balance. A well-organized library is like a well-balanced diet for the mind.
Among my favourites are the works of Jane Austen and George Orwell. Austen's sharp observations on society and relationships are timeless. Her characters are imperfect yet charming. Orwell, on the other hand, offers a stark (冷峻的) view of the world. 3 Both authors, though different in style, have taught me invaluable lessons about humanity.
4 Biographies (传记) and life stories offer insights into the lives of extraordinary individuals. They remind us that greatness comes in many forms. Reading about the struggles and successes of others can be incredibly inspiring. It’s a reminder that we all have the potential to make a difference. These stories encourage me to reflect on my own life and what I wish to leave behind.
My library is a reflection of who I am. It’s a sign of my love of learning and my desire to understand the world. Each book is a stepping stone on my journey of discovery. They are companions in loneliness and guides in times of uncertainty. 5
A. I also enjoy non-fiction.
B. I believe in the power of variety.
C. My library goes beyond a collection of books.
D. His stories are a warning and a call to action.
E. Through them, I continue to explore, to grow, and to dream.
F. The stories we read shape our world view and broaden our minds.
G. Historical fiction, in particular, holds a special place in my heart.
【答案】1. F 2. B 3. D 4. A 5. E

Passage 1
(25-26高二上·贵州省部分学校·期中)Imagine walking into your local library and borrowing a new clothing item instead of a book. 1 . Clothing libraries, where visitors can check out clothes, are appearing online and even inside traditional book libraries.
Fast fashion has enabled people to find their style and express themselves quickly and cheaply. 2 . The fashion industry produces about 175 million tons of textiles (纺织品) annually, yet only 6. 6 million tons are actually used. The remaining 169 million tons are discarded in landfills. Reusing clothes can significantly lower one’s carbon footprints. This has increased the popularity of clothing libraries, which focus on recycling and reusing. Initially offering expensive or special occasion wear, many now also include everyday clothing.
Although most clothing libraries operate online, Lizzie chose to place them in local libraries instead. She founded an organization in 2023 to promote clothing exchanges at Oswestry Library. 3 . This helps her see an opportunity to advance secondhand fashion and attract visitors. Lizzie believed libraries provided the perfect comfortable setting for trying new styles.
4 . Many clothing exchanges use a point system requiring donations, but at Oswestry Library, only a library card was needed. With the card, users could check out books or clothing for three weeks and renew them. Each piece of clothing has a barcode(条形码) with the donor’s name, which makes clothes feel special.
The Oswestry project perfectly combines fashion with literature, proving that a library visit can refresh one’s mind, wallet, and wardrobe. This initiative (新方案) benefits the local library, community, and organizers. For Lizzie, the greatest joy lies in seeing people discover and value recycled clothing. 5 .
A. However, it does come at a cost
B. It also helps reduce waste in the book industry
C. It quickly grew into a clothing lending program
D. This new idea is already a reality in some places
E. A famous designer decided to start her own business
F. The Oswestry clothing library works just like its book service
G. This creates a wonderful feeling of shared community and responsibility

Passage 2
(25-26高二上·贵州县中新学校联考·期中)How Positive Psychology Boosts Physical Health
Many people think of health as just eating well and exercising, but positive psychology shows that our mental state plays a key role in physical well-being too. 1 Research has found that positive emotions like joy, gratitude, and optimism aren’t just “nice to have” — they actually protect our bodies.
One study had followed 1,000 adults for 10 years. 2 Those who reported feeling happy and hopeful most days had 30% fewer cases of heart disease than those who often felt stressed or sad. Another research project looked at people with chronic pain. 3 Participants who practiced daily gratitude — writing down three things they were thankful for — said their pain levels dropped by 20% after two months.
Why does this happen? 4 When we feel positive, our bodies release less cortisol, the “stress hormone” that raises blood pressure and weakens the immune system. Positive emotions also boost the production of endorphins, which reduce pain and improve mood. 5 They found even small acts of positivity, like smiling at a stranger or laughing with a friend, can trigger these physical changes.
You don’t need big efforts to gain these benefits. Try starting your day by naming one thing you’re looking forward to, or ending it by noting a small joy. Over time, these tiny steps can strengthen your body’s defenses and make you healthier overall.
A. The answer lies in how our bodies respond to emotions.
B. It’s not surprising that positive people are healthier.
C. These emotions can also help us build better relationships.
D. Its findings offered strong support for this connection.
E. Even some doctors have begun to pay attention to this field.
F. Participants were asked to keep a record of their daily emotions.
G. Even small changes in our mental state can affect our physical health.
【答案】1. G 2. D 3. F 4. A 5. C

Passage 3
(25-26高二上·贵州·期中)How to Overcome Social Anxiety
Social anxiety can make everyday interactions deeply stressful, but practical strategies can help you navigate these situations more comfortably.
Be Aware of Your Body Language
People with social anxiety often display closed-off or defensive body language, such as crossing their arms, speaking quietly or standing far away from other people. Actively change this by adopting an open posture — face others, speak a bit louder than usual, and respect personal space but not create too much distance. 1 .
2
Anxious thoughts often exaggerate the risks of social interactions. You might imagine the worst cases or assume others will judge you negatively. Challenge these thoughts by asking yourself: “Is it truly likely that everyone will stare and walk away?” Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) techniques can help you replace negative thoughts with more realistic ones. With practice, you'll realize that most social fears are unfounded.
Gradual Exposure is Key
You don't have to force yourself into every social event. Prioritize and start with smaller, less frightening situations. 3 . While it may feel stressful and tiring initially, this process helps build confidence and reduces anxiety over time. Acknowledge your progress and reward yourself for using positive coping strategies.
Come prepared, But Not Too prepared
If small talk worries you, it's okay to have a few conversation starters ready, but avoid preparing everything beforehand. 4 . Focus on asking open-ended questions and showing genuine interest in others. Remember, the goal is connection, not perfection.
Finally, remember a simple but powerful tool: your breath. When anxiety rises, pause and focus on your breath. 5 . Deep, calm breathing can center your mind and ease your physical tension. However, overcoming social anxiety is a process — be patient with yourself and celebrate small victories along the way.
A. Trust Your Instincts
B. Examine Your Thoughts
C. It may sound simple, but it works
D. They are often based on unrealistic assumptions
E. Doing so can actually increase pressure and make interactions feel unnatural
F. These small adjustments can prevent you from being ignored and feeling isolated
G. Gradually exposing yourself to social settings, rather than avoiding them entirely, is crucial
【答案】1. F 2. B 3. G 4. E 5. C
【解析】【导语】
本文为一篇说明文。文章主要围绕如何克服社交焦虑提供了五个实用策略。
(1)题解析:
根据空前“Actively change this by adopting an open posture — face others, speak a bit louder than usual, and respect personal space but not create too much distance.(主动改变这一点,采取开放的姿态——面对他人,说话比平时稍响一些,尊重个人空间但不过分疏远)”可知,空前提到改变身体语言的具体做法,如面对他人、提高音量等,故此空应总结这些调整带来的积极影响,故F项“这些小小的调整可以防止你被忽视和感到孤立”符合,且F项中的“these small adjustments”与空前的“Actively change”相呼应,指代前文提到的开放姿态的改变。故选 F项。
(2)题解析:
根据本段内容“Anxious thoughts often exaggerate the risks of social interactions. You might imagine the worst cases or assume others will judge you negatively. Challenge these thoughts by asking yourself: “Is it truly likely that everyone will stare and walk away?” Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) techniques can help you replace negative thoughts with more realistic ones. With practice, you'll realize that most social fears are unfounded.(焦虑的想法常常夸大社交风险。你可能会想象最坏的情况,或假定他人会负面评价你。通过问自己来挑战这些想法:“真的可能所有人都盯着我看然后走开吗?”认知行为疗法(CBT)技术可以帮助你用更现实的想法替代消极想法。通过练习,你会意识到大多数社交恐惧是没有根据的)”可知,本段主要内容是挑战焦虑思维,指出焦虑想法常常夸大社交风险,并建议用CBT技术替代消极想法。故B项“审视你的想法”概括了本段核心,适合作为其小标题。故选B项。
(3)题解析:
根据空前“You don't have to force yourself into every social event. Prioritize and start with smaller, less frightening situations.(你不必强迫自己参加所有社交活动。分清主次,从较小、不那么可怕的情境开始)”以及空后“While it may feel stressful and tiring initially, this process helps build confidence and reduces anxiety over time.(虽然一开始可能感到压力和疲惫,这个过程会逐步建立信心、减少焦虑)”可知,空前提到“从较小、不那么可怕的情境开始”,空后强调“这个过程有助于建立信心”,故此空需要一个过渡句解释为何要逐步暴露。G项“逐渐让自己接触社交场合,而不是完全回避,是关键”符合,既呼应了“gradual exposure”这一核心概念,又自然引出后续效果,且G项中“gradually exposing”与前文“start with smaller, less frightening situations”紧密衔接。故选 G项。
(4)题解析:
根据空前“If small talk worries you, it's okay to have a few conversation starters ready, but avoid preparing everything beforehand.(如果闲聊让你担心,可以准备几个聊天话题,但避免事先准备所有内容)”可知,空前提到可以准备一些开场白,但不要事无巨细地提前准备一切,故此空应解释其原因。E项“这样做实际上会增加压力,使互动显得不自然”符合,说明了前文过度准备带来的后果,且E项中的“doing so”指代空前“preparing everything beforehand”。故选 E项。
(5)题解析:
根据空前“When anxiety rises, pause and focus on your breath.(当焦虑上升时,暂停并专注于呼吸)”和空后“Deep, calm breathing can center your mind and ease your physical tension.(深沉平静的呼吸能让心神集中、缓解身体紧张)”可知,空前提到深呼吸是一个简单而强大的工具,空后进一步说明其作用,能平静心情、缓解紧张,故此空需要一句过渡来加强语气。C项“它听起来可能很简单,但它有效”符合,恰当地表达了人们对呼吸法的怀疑与其实际效果之间的反差,增强了说服力,且C项中的“It”指代空前“pause and focus on your breath”。故选 C项。
