第二部分 阅读(共两节,满分50分)
第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分,满分37.5分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
You know that classics like Little Women and To Kill a Mockingbird started as novels. But you probably didn’t know that these other famous movies also came from books.
Hidden Figures
This film told the story of real-life Katherine Johnson and other female African-American mathematicians who helped drive the United States into space in the 1960s. It was actually based on a 2016 non-fiction book and the movie did boost sales of the book.
Forrest Gump
The 1994 movie which was based on the book by Winston Groom won six Academy Awards, including Best Picture and Best Actor for the star Tom Hanks. Although the movie’s critical and box-office success gave the book a huge boost, it’s the film that made its mark on pop culture history.
The Girl on the Train
Paula Hawkin’s psychological thriller, about a woman on a train who thinks she sees something strange out of the window, was a huge success. But unlike the fast—paced, can’t-be-put-down quality of the novel, the movie was boring.
Field of Dreams
It’s hard to describe the plot of this movie: Ray Kinsella hears a voice telling him to build a baseball field in his Iowa cornfield, and what happens next explores the themes of lost dreams, childhood heroes, and healing the pain of the past. The 1989 movie is based on W. P. Kinsella’s 1982 original, Shoeless Joe, but cuts out some extra characters.
21. Which is the best choice for a person who loves math?
A. Hidden Figures. B. Forrest Gump.
C. The Girl on the Train. D. Field of Dreams.
22. Who has won the Academy Award for Best Actor according to the text?
A. Tom Hanks. B. Winston Groom.
C. Paula Hawkin. D. W. P. Kinsella.
23. What is special about Field of Dreams?
A. It is a romantic comedy. B. It presents several themes.
C. It shows all the figures in Shoeless Joe. D. It was released in 1982 for the first time.
B
In the midst of my anxiety, the phone rang on Sunday before the first day of school. It was a recording of our head teacher. She said that school would be put off until Wednesday because of the typhoon in the area.
Finally it was Wednesday. I walked into the campus nervously. I had to walk up to the third floor to have my first period — biology. Our teacher’s name is Ms Compeau, and she has her special way of saying “be quiet”. She says “alligator (鳄鱼)”. She explained that she is the king of the class because alligators are the “king of the swamps (沼泽)”.
After three periods, I was hungry. However, we had one more period before lunch. It was time for music class. I walked into a chaotic room with people talking, laughing and eating. There was no one I knew, so I sat alone.
After lunch, I went to my English class. After four periods without too much of a challenge, I didn’t feel too bad about high school. However, the fifth period changed everything. I didn’t feel ready after all. My teacher, Mr Valassidis, told us that we would have to write 40 essays (论说文) and read AP-level books such as The Odyssey this year. Come on, 40 ESSAYS? AP-level books? He also talked about how important it was to be focused. Last year was not a very “focused” year for me. While I was doing my homework, I was often talking on the phone. I planned on stopping doing so this year because I wanted to stay an honor student.
All in all, the first day of high school was good. I already felt like I was well on my way toward a successful high school life.
24. What was the purpose of Sunday’s phone call from the school?
A. To tell students the new start date of school. B. To ask the students to help put out the fire.
C. To instruct the preparations for the new term. D. To warn students to pay attention to safety.
25. What does “alligator” mean in Ms Compeau’s class?
A. A kind of wild animal. B. The teacher’s pet name.
C. A classroom order to stop talking. D. The instruction for the end of class.
26. What does the underlined word “chaotic” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Strange. B. Bright. C. Noisy. D. Large.
27. Why did the author feel unprepared for high school during the English class?
A. Students were not allowed to use phones. B. The teacher was too strict with students.
C. English was a bit difficult for her. D. It required lots of learning tasks.
C
Missy Testerman has been teaching at Rogersville City School for over 30 years. But for the past few years, she’s been teaching more children who weren’t born in the local community. Some of the children are from Mexico and Honduras, and others are from India, China, and some other nations.
To teach English to non-native speakers, Testerman always starts small, grouping the vocabulary into categories (类别) such as animals, directions, or food to help them learn new words. Then she organizes role-playing exercises, allowing her students to practice what they have learned in real context. Testerman also helps her students get a taste of the local culture, introducing them to the customs, traditions, and social practices of the community.
What Testerman has learned from her job is that, besides helping newcomer students learn English, it’s important to help them fit in socially. “I try to make sure that my students understand local culture and take part in sports and other community activities, because in this way, local people will accept them more easily,” Testerman says.
At the same time, Testerman doesn’t want her students to lose their mother languages. She believes in the importance of cultural pride. “I encourage my students to be proud of their roots and to share their own languages and traditions with their classmates,” she says. “This not only improves our classroom environment but also fosters (促进) respect and understanding among all students.”
Last year, Testerman’s love for her students and her work as a teacher of English earned her the title of Tennessee’s 2023 Teacher of the Year. This year, the Council of Chief State School Officers selected her as one of four finalists for National Teacher of the Year. “It’s an amazing feeling,” she says. “But I’m still a little confused about how and why, because there are so many good teachers in my state and community who put their heart into their work. To be named as a finalist is just unbelievable to me.”
28. What is paragraph two mainly about?
A. The teaching methods of Testerman.
B. The importance of practical teaching.
C. The learning preferences of the students.
D. The reasons for teaching non-native speakers.
29. What does Testerman help her students do besides English learning?
A. Get into the habit of working out.
B. Get used to the new environment.
C. Develop a strong sense of pride in their class.
D. Improve their performance in other subjects.
30. How does Testerman feel about being selected as a finalist for National Teacher of the Year?
A. Surprised. B. Proud. C. Excited. D. Nervous.
31. Which of the following words can best describe Testerman?
A. Strict and patient.
B. Humorous and pleasant.
C. Confident and creative.
D. Caring and hard-working.
D
Researchers have recently discovered that gut bacteria (肠道细菌) that grow within our body help the brain build important social skills.
According to a paper published in PLOS Biology in November, zebra fish were used as research subjects to test how a lack of bacteria could affect social skills. Zebra fish are social animals as even 2-week-old fish start to hang out in groups of four to twelve.
The experiment started with making a group of fish “bacteria-free” through their diet. The other group were injected with a healthy mix of gut bacteria after they were hatched. “About 15 days later, the second group began swimming in groups while the bacteria-free group shockingly didn’t,” Judith Eisen, a co-author of the new research, said to Quanta Magazine.
The team then examined the fish’s brains, discovering obvious differences between the two groups. The ones who lacked the gut bacteria had more interconnections among the neurons (神经元) in their brains in charge of social behavior, and social neurons were seen to have overgrown. This made the fish more cautious in social situations.
Scientists said that the bacteria might release a special chemical that crosses the blood-brain barrier to reach the brain directly. Although the experiments were only on fish, the findings can theoretically be applied to humans. The team wishes to explore how gut bacteria affect the human brain in the future, which may lead to solutions to mental health problems.
Perhaps many people who claim that they have “social phobia (社交恐惧症)” can blame their guts. However,social phobia, or social anxiety disorder, can be a serious illness if overlooked. According to the National Health Service in the UK, it is more than shyness but instead a constant fear of social situations. Patients may experience panic attacks which are an overwhelming fear and anxiety that last for a few minutes.
32. What does the research focus on?
A. The growth of gut bacteria. B. The way zebra fish build social skills.
C. The influencing factors of social behavior. D. The link between gut bacteria and social behavior.
33. What was found in the experiment?
A. The two groups of zebra fish became different in size.
B. The bacteria-free zebra fish swam in groups.
C. The zebra fish injected with gut bacteria were quieter.
D. The zebra fish with gut bacteria swam in groups.
34. How do scientists feel about their findings?
A. Positive. B. Disappointed. C. Doubtful. D. Worried.
35. Which is true about “social phobia” according to the last paragraph?
A. It will result in gut problems. B. It is a serious illness.
C. It may cause panic. D. It is all about shyness.

A. S+V+O B. S+V+O1+O2 C. S+V+O+C D. S+V+P
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:句子“You will find English easy to learn.”的主体结构是____。分析句子可知,“You”是主语,“will find”是谓语动词,“English”是宾语,形容词短语“easy to learn”是宾语补足语,补充说明宾语。因此,该句为主谓宾补(S+V+O+C)结构。
20. I ________ at the photos on the noticeboard when I heard a voice behind me.
A. look B. looked C. will look D. was looking
【答案】D

【详解】句意:我正看着公告板上的照片,这时听到身后传来一个声音。本题考查固定句型“sb. be doing sth. when...”,意为“某人正在做某事,这时突然……”。根据从句中的谓语动词“heard”可知,事情发生在过去,因此主句需用过去进行时,主语为I,谓语动词用was looking。
第二部分 阅读(共两节,满分50分)
第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分,满分37.5分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
You know that classics like Little Women and To Kill a Mockingbird started as novels. But you probably didn’t know that these other famous movies also came from books.
Hidden Figures
This film told the story of real-life Katherine Johnson and other female African-American mathematicians who helped drive the United States into space in the 1960s. It was actually based on a 2016 non-fiction book and the movie did boost sales of the book.
Forrest Gump
The 1994 movie which was based on the book by Winston Groom won six Academy Awards, including Best Picture and Best Actor for the star Tom Hanks. Although the movie’s critical and box-office success gave the book a huge boost, it’s the film that made its mark on pop culture history.
The Girl on the Train
Paula Hawkin’s psychological thriller, about a woman on a train who thinks she sees something strange out of the window, was a huge success. But unlike the fast—paced, can’t-be-put-down quality of the novel, the movie was boring.
Field of Dreams
It’s hard to describe the plot of this movie: Ray Kinsella hears a voice telling him to build a baseball field in his Iowa cornfield, and what happens next explores the themes of lost dreams, childhood heroes, and healing the pain of the past. The 1989 movie is based on W. P. Kinsella’s 1982 original, Shoeless Joe, but cuts out some extra characters.
21. Which is the best choice for a person who loves math?
A. Hidden Figures. B. Forrest Gump.
C. The Girl on the Train. D. Field of Dreams.
22. Who has won the Academy Award for Best Actor according to the text?
A. Tom Hanks. B. Winston Groom.
C. Paula Hawkin. D. W. P. Kinsella.
23. What is special about Field of Dreams?
A. It is a romantic comedy. B. It presents several themes.
C. It shows all the figures in Shoeless Joe. D. It was released in 1982 for the first time.
【答案】21. A 22. A 23. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇应用文。文章介绍了四部根据文学作品改变的著名影片。
【21题详解】
细节理解题。根据Hidden Figures大标题下的第一句话“This film told the story of real-life Katherine Johnson and other female African-American mathematicians who helped drive the United States into space in the 1960s.(这部电影讲述了现实生活中凯瑟琳·约翰逊和其他非裔美国女数学家的故事,她们在20世纪60年代帮助美国进入太空)”可知,Hidden Figures讲述了真实的凯瑟琳·约翰逊和其他非洲裔女性数学家的故事,所以喜欢数学的人可以选择这部电影。故选A。
【22题详解】
细节理解题。根据Forrest Gump大标题下的第一句话“The 1994 movie which was based on the book by Winston Groom won six Academy Awards, including Best Picture and Best Actor for the star Tom Hanks.(这部1994年根据温斯顿·格罗姆的书改编的电影获得了六项奥斯卡奖,包括明星汤姆·汉克斯的最佳影片和最佳男主角)”可知,Tom Hanks赢得了奥斯卡最佳男主角。故选A。
【23题详解】
细节理解题。根据第Field of Dreams大标题下的第一句话“It’s hard to describe the plot of this movie: Ray Kinsella hears a voice telling him to build a baseball field in his Iowa cornfield, and what happens next explores the themes of lost dreams, childhood heroes, and healing the pain of the past.(很难描述这部电影的情节:雷·金塞拉听到一个声音,告诉他在爱荷华州的玉米地里建一个棒球场,接下来发生的事情探讨了失去的梦想、童年英雄和治愈过去痛苦的主题)”可知,电影 Field of Dreams探讨了失落的梦想、童年英雄和治愈过去痛苦的主题,由此可知,这部电影特殊之处在于它有好几个主题。故选B。
B
In the midst of my anxiety, the phone rang on Sunday before the first day of school. It was a recording of our head teacher. She said that school would be put off until Wednesday because of the typhoon in the area.
Finally it was Wednesday. I walked into the campus nervously. I had to walk up to the third floor to have my first period — biology. Our teacher’s name is Ms Compeau, and she has her special way of saying “be quiet”. She says “alligator (鳄鱼)”. She explained that she is the king of the class because alligators are the “king of the swamps (沼泽)”.
After three periods, I was hungry. However, we had one more period before lunch. It was time for music class. I walked into a chaotic room with people talking, laughing and eating. There was no one I knew, so I sat alone.
After lunch, I went to my English class. After four periods without too much of a challenge, I didn’t feel too bad about high school. However, the fifth period changed everything. I didn’t feel ready after all. My teacher, Mr Valassidis, told us that we would have to write 40 essays (论说文) and read AP-level books such as The Odyssey this year. Come on, 40 ESSAYS? AP-level books? He also talked about how important it was to be focused. Last year was not a very “focused” year for me. While I was doing my homework, I was often talking on the phone. I planned on stopping doing so this year because I wanted to stay an honor student.
All in all, the first day of high school was good. I already felt like I was well on my way toward a successful high school life.
24. What was the purpose of Sunday’s phone call from the school?
A. To tell students the new start date of school. B. To ask the students to help put out the fire.
C. To instruct the preparations for the new term. D. To warn students to pay attention to safety.
25. What does “alligator” mean in Ms Compeau’s class?
A. A kind of wild animal. B. The teacher’s pet name.
C. A classroom order to stop talking. D. The instruction for the end of class.
26. What does the underlined word “chaotic” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Strange. B. Bright. C. Noisy. D. Large.
27. Why did the author feel unprepared for high school during the English class?
A. Students were not allowed to use phones. B. The teacher was too strict with students.
C. English was a bit difficult for her. D. It required lots of learning tasks.
【答案】24. A 25. C 26. C 27. D
【解析】
【导语】文章讲述了作者高中开学第一天的经历,开学因台风延期,作者经历多节课后,英语课繁重的学习任务让其感到措手不及,整体首日体验尚可。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中的“She said that school would be put off until Wednesday because of the typhoon in the area. (她说因为该地区有台风,学校将推迟到周三开学。)”可知,周日学校打来电话的目的是通知学生新的开学日期。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Our teacher’s name is Ms Compeau, and she has her special way of saying ‘be quiet’. She says ‘alligator (鳄鱼)’. (我们的生物老师是康珀女士,她有独特的方式示意大家‘安静’。她说‘鳄鱼’。)”可知,在康珀女士的课上,“alligator”是让学生们保持安静、停止说话的课堂指令。
【26题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段“I walked into a chaotic room with people talking, laughing and eating. (我走进一间chaotic的教室,人们在交谈、大笑和吃东西。)”可以推断出,当时的教室环境是非常嘈杂和混乱的,chaotic意为“嘈杂的”,在这里的含义和Noisy匹配。
【27题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中的“My teacher, Mr Valassidis, told us that we would have to write 40 essays (论说文) and read AP-level books such as The Odyssey this year. Come on, 40 ESSAYS? AP-level books? (我们的老师瓦拉西迪先生告诉我们,这学年我们要写40篇论说文,还要阅读《奥德赛》这类大学先修级别读物。不是吧,40篇论说文?大学先修级别的书?)”可知,作者在英语课上得知这一年要写40篇论说文、还要读大学先修级别的书,大量远超预期的学习任务让她突然觉得还没准备好高中生活。
C
Missy Testerman has been teaching at Rogersville City School for over 30 years. But for the past few years, she’s been teaching more children who weren’t born in the local community. Some of the children are from Mexico and Honduras, and others are from India, China, and some other nations.
To teach English to non-native speakers, Testerman always starts small, grouping the vocabulary into categories (类别) such as animals, directions, or food to help them learn new words. Then she organizes role-playing exercises, allowing her students to practice what they have learned in real context. Testerman also helps her students get a taste of the local culture, introducing them to the customs, traditions, and social practices of the community.
What Testerman has learned from her job is that, besides helping newcomer students learn English, it’s important to help them fit in socially. “I try to make sure that my students understand local culture and take part in sports and other community activities, because in this way, local people will accept them more easily,” Testerman says.
At the same time, Testerman doesn’t want her students to lose their mother languages. She believes in the importance of cultural pride. “I encourage my students to be proud of their roots and to share their own languages and traditions with their classmates,” she says. “This not only improves our classroom environment but also fosters (促进) respect and understanding among all students.”
Last year, Testerman’s love for her students and her work as a teacher of English earned her the title of Tennessee’s 2023 Teacher of the Year. This year, the Council of Chief State School Officers selected her as one of four finalists for National Teacher of the Year. “It’s an amazing feeling,” she says. “But I’m still a little confused about how and why, because there are so many good teachers in my state and community who put their heart into their work. To be named as a finalist is just unbelievable to me.”
28. What is paragraph two mainly about?
A. The teaching methods of Testerman.
B. The importance of practical teaching.
C. The learning preferences of the students.
D. The reasons for teaching non-native speakers.
29. What does Testerman help her students do besides English learning?
A. Get into the habit of working out.
B. Get used to the new environment.
C. Develop a strong sense of pride in their class.
D. Improve their performance in other subjects.
30. How does Testerman feel about being selected as a finalist for National Teacher of the Year?
A. Surprised. B. Proud. C. Excited. D. Nervous.
31. Which of the following words can best describe Testerman?
A. Strict and patient.
B. Humorous and pleasant.
C. Confident and creative.
D. Caring and hard-working.
【答案】28. A 29. B 30. A 31. D

【28题详解】
主旨大意题。 根据第二段“To teach English to non-native speakers, Testerman always starts small, grouping the vocabulary into categories (类别) such as animals, directions, or food to help them learn new words. Then she organizes role-playing exercises, allowing her students to practice what they have learned in real context. Testerman also helps her students get a taste of the local culture, introducing them to the customs, traditions, and social practices of the community. (为了向英语非母语的孩子教授英语,泰斯特曼总是从小处着手。她把词汇分成动物、方位、食物等类别,帮助学生学习新词。之后她组织角色扮演活动,让学生在真实情境中练习所学内容。泰斯特曼还带领学生感受本土文化,向他们介绍社区的风俗、传统与社会习惯。)”可知,该段主要介绍了泰斯特曼教授非英语母语学生的具体做法,如将词汇分类、组织角色扮演练习以及帮助学生体验当地文化等,这些内容都属于她的教学方法。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。 根据第三段中的“What Testerman has learned from her job is that, besides helping newcomer students learn English, it’s important to help them fit in socially. ‘I try to make sure that my students understand local culture and take part in sports and other community activities, because in this way, local people will accept them more easily,’ Testerman says. (泰斯特曼从这份工作中领悟到:除了帮助新来的学生学习英语,帮助他们在社交上融入当地同样重要。‘我努力让学生了解本土文化,参加体育和其他社区活动。这样一来,当地人会更容易接纳他们。’泰斯特曼说道。)”可知,除了帮新来的学生学英语,她还帮助他们在社交层面融入、理解本地文化及参与社区活动,由此可看出,她致力于帮助学生适应新的生活环境。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。 根据最后一段中泰斯特曼的表述“But I’m still a little confused about how and why, because there are so many good teachers in my state and community who put their heart into their work. To be named as a finalist is just unbelievable to me. (但我还有点困惑,不知道为什么会是我。在我们州和社区,有许许多多全心投入工作的优秀教师。能入选决赛候选人,对我来说实在难以置信。)”可知,她对入围全国年度教师决赛候选人感到非常惊讶。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章首句“Missy Testerman has been teaching at Rogersville City School for over 30 years. (米西・泰斯特曼在罗杰斯维尔城市学校任教三十多年。)”及最后一段中“Last year, Testerman’s love for her students and her work as a teacher of English earned her the title of Tennessee’s 2023 Teacher of the Year. (去年,泰斯特曼对学生的热爱以及她的英语教学工作,为她赢得了田纳西州2023年度教师称号。)”并纵观全文可知,她深耕教学30多年、关爱学生还获得州年度教师称号,同时兼顾语言教学与文化融合,这体现了她充满关爱及勤恳敬业。

Researchers have recently discovered that gut bacteria (肠道细菌) that grow within our body help the brain build important social skills.
According to a paper published in PLOS Biology in November, zebra fish were used as research subjects to test how a lack of bacteria could affect social skills. Zebra fish are social animals as even 2-week-old fish start to hang out in groups of four to twelve.
The experiment started with making a group of fish “bacteria-free” through their diet. The other group were injected with a healthy mix of gut bacteria after they were hatched. “About 15 days later, the second group began swimming in groups while the bacteria-free group shockingly didn’t,” Judith Eisen, a co-author of the new research, said to Quanta Magazine.
The team then examined the fish’s brains, discovering obvious differences between the two groups. The ones who lacked the gut bacteria had more interconnections among the neurons (神经元) in their brains in charge of social behavior, and social neurons were seen to have overgrown. This made the fish more cautious in social situations.
Scientists said that the bacteria might release a special chemical that crosses the blood-brain barrier to reach the brain directly. Although the experiments were only on fish, the findings can theoretically be applied to humans. The team wishes to explore how gut bacteria affect the human brain in the future, which may lead to solutions to mental health problems.
Perhaps many people who claim that they have “social phobia (社交恐惧症)” can blame their guts. However,social phobia, or social anxiety disorder, can be a serious illness if overlooked. According to the National Health Service in the UK, it is more than shyness but instead a constant fear of social situations. Patients may experience panic attacks which are an overwhelming fear and anxiety that last for a few minutes.
32. What does the research focus on?
A. The growth of gut bacteria. B. The way zebra fish build social skills.
C. The influencing factors of social behavior. D. The link between gut bacteria and social behavior.
33. What was found in the experiment?
A. The two groups of zebra fish became different in size.
B. The bacteria-free zebra fish swam in groups.
C. The zebra fish injected with gut bacteria were quieter.
D. The zebra fish with gut bacteria swam in groups.
34. How do scientists feel about their findings?
A. Positive. B. Disappointed. C. Doubtful. D. Worried.
35. Which is true about “social phobia” according to the last paragraph?
A. It will result in gut problems. B. It is a serious illness.
C. It may cause panic. D. It is all about shyness.
【答案】32. D 33. D 34. A 35. C
【解析】
【导语】文章介绍了一项科研发现,肠道细菌有助于大脑形成社交能力;科学家以斑马鱼做实验,发现缺少肠道细菌会影响社交行为,该研究或许能为人类心理健康问题提供解决思路。
【32题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“Researchers have recently discovered that gut bacteria (肠道细菌) that grow within our body help the brain build important social skills. (研究人员最近发现,体内生长的肠道细菌有助于大脑建立重要的社交技能。)”可知,这项研究的核心重点是探讨肠道细菌与社交行为之间的联系。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段中“The other group were injected with a healthy mix of gut bacteria after they were hatched. ‘About 15 days later, the second group began swimming in groups while the bacteria-free group shockingly didn’t,’ Judith Eisen, a co-author of the new research, said to Quanta Magazine. (另一组斑马鱼孵化后,被注射了健康的混合肠道细菌。该研究的合著者朱迪思・艾森接受《量子杂志》采访时说:‘大约15天后,第二组斑马鱼开始成群游动,而无菌组的鱼却没有,这令人震惊。’)”可知,注射了健康肠道细菌的斑马鱼(即第二组)会成群游动。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第五段中“The team wishes to explore how gut bacteria affect the human brain in the future, which may lead to solutions to mental health problems. (该团队希望在未来探索肠道细菌如何影响人类大脑,这可能会带来解决心理健康问题的方法。)”可知,科学家认为这一发现理论上可应用于人类,并有望为心理健康问题提供解决方案,因此他们对该发现的态度是积极的、乐观的。
【35题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章最后一段中“Patients may experience panic attacks which are an overwhelming fear and anxiety that last for a few minutes. (患者可能会经历恐慌发作,这是一种持续几分钟的压倒性恐惧和焦虑。)”可知,社交恐惧症可能会引起恐慌。

【解析】
【导语】本文介绍改善家庭生活的几种方法。
【36题详解】
根据空前的“Improving your family life can help make your family members closer and prevent conflicts from getting in the way of everyone’s happiness.(改善家庭生活有助于拉近家人之间的距离,避免矛盾影响所有人的幸福感。)”以及空后的“Talk to your family members at the end of the day.(在一天结束时和家人聊聊天。)”可知,前文阐述改善家庭生活带来的好处,空格需要承接该内容,引出下文对应的解决办法。G选项“The following ways can make your time with your family more enjoyable(下面这些方法能让你和家人相处得更愉快)”起到承上启下的作用,自然过渡到后文列举的各项家庭相处建议。
【37题详解】
根据空前的“Talk to your family members at the end of the day.(在一天结束时和家人聊聊天。)”以及空后的“In this way, they can understand you and generally know what’s going on in your life.(这样,他们就能理解你,大致了解你的生活状况。)”可知,前文提出要和家人交谈,后文In this way指代空格的做法,空格需要说明交谈的目的是让家人知晓你的生活。E选项“It is very important that you let them know about your life(让他们了解你的生活十分重要)”中的them指代前文family members,引出后文带来的良好效果,前后语义连贯。
【38题详解】
根据空前的“Set aside time for regular family activities. You can do fun activities together to relax yourselves.(留出时间开展固定的家庭活动。你们可以一起做有趣的活动来放松。)”可知,前文提出安排家庭趣味活动,空格需要举例说明可以开展哪些活动。F选项“These could include bike rides, walks, playing cards or board games(这些活动可以包括骑车、散步、打牌或是桌游)”中的These指代上文提到的fun activities,对家庭活动进行举例说明,衔接上文内容。
【39题详解】
根据空前的“Show sincere concern (关心) about your family members.(向家人表达真诚的关心。)”以及空后的“If you love them, then tell them that you love them. If you care about them, tell them this.(如果你爱他们,就告诉他们你爱他们。如果你关心他们,就把这份关心说出来。)”可知,本段主旨是主动表达关心与爱意,后文强调情感要直接说出口。D选项“Do not keep your feelings hidden in your heart(不要把情绪藏在心底)”引出后文“直接表达爱与关心”的论述,逻辑通顺。
【40题详解】
根据空后的“Do not always give a lot of advice to your family members. Just hear them out at times. That is all they need. Make eye contact with them, nod your head, and say things like, “I understand,” when appropriate.(不要总是给家人大量建议。有时只需倾听他们的诉说,这就是他们全部的需求。和他们进行眼神交流,点头,在合适的时候说类似“我明白”这样的话。)”可知,后文介绍倾听家人说话的具体做法,空格作为本段主题句,概括本段核心内容。A选项“Be an active listener.(做一个积极的倾听者)”总领本段,引出下文倾听的相关细节。
