手惰市安逸阳光实验学校精编优选练(二十二)阅读七选五2(限时：35分钟)AAs a teacher living in Bristol, I earned enough to get by. I spent whatever I wanted without a thought for the future. My wardrobe (衣柜) was filled with clothes I never wore. 1Then one day I learned about an American lady who had lived on “just necessities” for a year. It was an inspiration for me. 2 So I made a decision—I would survive on an average of ￡1 a day for a whole year.I quickly became interested in food bargains and well acquainted with the discount shelf in the supermarket. Eating healthily on so little money was harder, but not impossible.I became an expert at making perishables (容易腐坏的东西) last：storing red cabbages in the dark so they kept longer; mixing leftover vegetables into soup. 3 On top of this，I even organised clothes swap parties with my friends.Of course, looking back，there were countless times I wanted to put my head in my hands and weep. But over the course of the year, I learned so much about myself and others.I realised how much I was wasting and indeed how much we waste as a nation. 4 Then there's the money on shoes we never wear, books we never read and coffees we buy because we can't think what else to do.So many people—like my former self—are constantly in debt, living beyond their means. 5 But if we could open our eyes we'd see there is a different and more satisfying way to live.A．I made use of everything.B．Food soon became a worry.C．They were littered with dirty tins.D．My fridge was full of outofdate f ood.E．Money rules our lives without us realizing it.F．Britain throws out 17 million tons of food a year.G．I realised I didn't need to spend all the money I earned.[语篇解读] 本文是一篇记叙文。

to them.They show a great appreciation for the arts and they’re inspired by the beauty they find in the world.They notice that tiny little worms crawling on the sidewalk and the puffy (松软雪白的) clouds

challenging classes and occasionally had to deal with bad homework or midterm grades.I learned that I am not always going to get the results that I want,but no matter what,I have to persevere and not give up. 2 In addition to that,exercising is a great way to get out of the stressful college life that is all about homework,presentations,and group projects. 3 I personally think that I would go crazy without going to the gym at least three times a week.The reason most students do not play sports is because they feel lazy about it and don’t have the energy for it. 4 As a matter of fact,exercise pumps more oxygen through your blood and makes your entire system more active.5 Besides just being fun,sports can help you perform better in school,relax more and worry less,deal with setbacks,work better with others and increase your energy.A.To sum up,playing sports has some serious benefits.B.In short,playing sports can help students become more energetic.C.They helped me get on

and feelings ever since she was a child.She was often told that she was “too quiet”or “too shy”,and as she grew older,she became increasingly self-conscious about her inability to articulate herself.It wasn’t that she didn’t have anything to say—far from it.Mary’s mind was constantly racing with ideas and observations,but no matter how hard she tried,she just couldn’t seem to get the words out.“Mary,I need to talk to you,” Mr.Thompson,the boss of Mary’s new c ompany,said one day,his voice serious.Mary’s heart sank.“Don’t worry,” Mr.Thompson said,noticing Mary’s panic.“It’s not

of lexicographers (词典编纂者) to include them in the dictionaries.John Algeo who studies the history of language says,“As our culture changes,the language changes.American culture is going through a time of rapid change.”Technology is moving fast,which has a big effect on language.The computer world produces hundreds of new words.New terms also come from business,medicine,and other fields.Many new English words come from other languages.David Jost helps create the American Heritage Dictionary.“We constantly borrow words from other cultures,” he says.“This will go on forever in cultures.”“People in many parts of the world speak English now.That is another reason why so many new words are entering the language,” says Algeo.The American Dialect Society has a contest each year.The society selects a “new word of theyear”,which gains high level of popularity on media for some st year the winner was “information superhighway”,referring to a whole set of electronic network of information and people getting access to this network by computer.New words often come in several forms,such as the back-formation (like enthuse from enthusiasm),the clipping (like zoo from zoological garden),and the compounding,etc.Over time,one form tends to win out.Take the compounding for instance.“Domestic partners”has been growing popular lately,even though many terms have been used to describe couples who live together but are not married.“A new word rarely can be traced to one source,” says Algeo.“Several people tend to create a new word when a need for one exists.”“Most new words have a limited

DevelopmentD.New Words Influencing English LanguageD(2023河北张家口二模)A new study found some primates (灵长类) are leaving their tree homes and spending more time onthe ground.Led by Timothy Eppley,Ph.D.,scientists studied nearly 50 species of monkeys and lemurs (狐猴) to look at the reason behind these changes.About 15 years ago,Eppley worked with southern bamboo lemurs,which were known to spend most of their days in the trees,feeding on bamboo leaves.However,he was surprised to find these lemurs were spending most time on the ground and had an incredibly diverse diet.He wondered whether habitat reduction and limited food resource availability were driving them move to the ground.This inspired him to begin this study.He reached out to every researcher he could find who may have significant data on primates from Madagascar or the Americas,the two places with almost all tree-dwelling primates.Eppley examined more than 150,000 hours of data observed on 32 monkey species and 15 lemur species at 68 sites.He found that they spent an average of only 2.5% of their time on the ground each month.But the findings showed some interesting differences.“As habitats are degraded and the climate worsens,primates that are flexible enough to adapt because of their diverse diets or live in larger groups may be more likely to shift to life on the ground,” Eppley says.“However,other species that rely on fruit diets or live in small groups are less adaptable and are less willing to leave the tree.For these species,we will still need to enforce fast and effective conservation strategies to ensure their survival.”Although moving to the ground has some advantages in certain situations,primates can face problems when they leave the trees.They can become victims of other animals and diseases.Besides,they will be faced with finding appropriate food resources on the ground,thus having a broad or flexible diet is important.Primates are important seed spreaders within their forest habitats.The loss of primates would lead to negative effects on the ecosystem.12.Why did Timothy Eppley begin his study?A.To try to make primates more adaptive.B.To study how monkeys differ from lemurs.C.To figure out the reason for the loss of bamboo.D.To find out why primates are turning to the ground.13.How did Timothy Eppley carry out his research?A.By doing experiments.B.By observing in the wild.C.By studying collected data.D.By interviewing the locals.14.Which kind of primates are more likely to come down from trees?A.Those eating diverse diets.B.Those with a large size.C.Those feeding mainly on fruits.D.Those living in small groups.15.What will become a concern according to the study?A.Animals will become less adaptive.B.The forest ecosystem will become worse.C.More natural habitats will be lost.D.More animal-related diseases will appear.Ⅱ.七选五(2023河北保定一模)Gardening can be a fun and rewarding activity for people of all ages,but it can be especially beneficial for children.Gardening enhances children’s senses and motor skills.In addition to being able to touch the soil,use various tools and seeds,children can also spot the differences between different plants,and hear sounds of different insects.1.Gardening activities like digging,planting,watering,and weeding can stimulate movements of the body,particularly arms and hands,and help children learn about the natural world.2.Children’s curiosity about plants starts with the first seed they sow.They learn about natural process by observing the growth and fruit ripen.They also come to appreciate the vital role of insects and worms for plants and recognize that everything in nature is connected.Plant care fosters (培养) patience and responsibility.3,and children learn what it means to be responsible for something to help ensure its health.Gardening also teaches children about caring for the environment,fostering a love and respect for nature.Gardening promotes nutrition and healthy choices for kids.Planting and cultivating (培育) plants,picking vegetables and fruit,and involving kids in cooking with what they grew will certainly result in a wish to try and consume the food they prepared.They will gladly try vegetables and fruit they planted and cultivated themselves.4.Gardening gives your family bonding time.Bonding with your family is so important,but it can be hard to realize with the digital age.5,which contributes to parent-child relationship.A.Plants need regular and consistent careB.Gardening gives you a chance to dial this backC.Children get a head start on

look at the handout and tell her what topic was next.At the end of her presentation,audience members gave her top marks for organization.“What I learned is that the audience doesn’t care about whether you mess up,and what they care about is what you are going to do about it,” Mary said.“My nervousness went aw ay when I didn’t concentrate on myself,but just thought,‘How is my speech going to help the audience?’ 2 .Every single step of the way,ask yourself,‘What’s in it for them?’”● 3Carter is the founder of Canada-based presentation skills training company.When possible,he gets to the location

in the sink when she finishes the milk,but no reminders are needed. 1 Raising helpful,good kids who know how to make a sandwich is not a fantasy!The following tips can give you a better chance of raising a responsible child who then grows into a responsible adult.2 You can’t suddenly spring responsibility on a teenager and expect he will know how to follow through.He needs time to practice and totally understand what responsibility means.Let kids help you.Don’t complain when it’s tim e to do housework. 3 When your child is invited to participate,he feels valued.He will take these good feelings and learn to take ownership of his home and feel proud in keeping it up.4 Make responsibilities age appropriate.You can show how to complete small tasks in daily life and perform them at a child’s skill level.For example,if your kid wants a snack,show him where the apples are and how to wash one off.Teach your child consequences.Learning to take care of his things also helps a child develop a sense of responsibility for his actions.Get your son to clean upafter an art project,and inform him that he won’t be able to play with his crayonsthe next day if he leaves a messy table.Then take away his supplies if he does not take his responsibility. 5A.The more you carry out the rules,the more likely he’s to clean up without being asked.B.Where do these wonderful children come

travel back in time to find your favorite childhood Disney songs.You may find that you even want to sing along with them. 1 Language teachers call t hese “authentic texts,” which is simply another way to say that this is real,living,breathing language.●Use your devicesThink of the technology you use on a daily basis.How about changing the display language? 2 It might be worth making a mental note of how to change the language back,just in case.●Build associations with your environmentYour environment is full of vocabulary.Sticky notes are your friends when it comes to labeling every object in your house.Handy tip:Don’t just label stuff;build asso ciations with useful vocabulary.For example,don’t just write “the light switch” but also “to turn on”,“to turn off”,“bright” and “dark”.Reading these associations regularly will help solidify them in your mind. 3●Less is more—when you do it regularlyMake it a habit to learn as much as you can every day—and can is the operative word here.You’ve got half an hour?Great.Only 15 minutes today?No problem.It’s still better than cramming for a weekend and then doing nothing for a couple of weeks. 4If you’re a ble to integrate language learning into your day instead of trying to set aside “extra” time for it,the chances of it becoming a habit are much better.●Find someone to talk to,even if it’s youFinding a native speaker to talk to is an absolute must if you want to learn a language. 5 And don’t be afraid to chat in the language you’relearning:everybody who’s ever learned a language has done this at one stage or another.It’s

阅读七选五题型针对练(四) 段尾类Test 1[2023·福建省三明市等五地高三一模]The Upside to Being OutsideResearch shows that being in nature makes people feel good, whether they're roughing it in the wilderness for days or just hanging out at a local park for a while. One study was conducted in the city of Birmingham, Alabama. Researchers found that most part icipants' mood and wellbeing improved significantly when they spent time in urban parks, even though the average visit was only around half an hour.__1__ For example, scientists in the United Kingdom studied the impact of the “30 Days Wild” campaign. It challenged people to interact with nature for 30 days by enjoying earthy activities like feeding birds and planting flowers. Participants were measurably happier and healthier throughout the challenge...and for months afterwards, too. __2__How does nature boost people's happiness? Scientists say that spending time in natural settings reduces stress and anxiety, which benefits mental and physical health. Research shows our brains are more relaxed in natural settings.To most people, it's not news that nature can be calming. But multiple studies have found that spending time in nature also has some more surprising benefits, like improving creativity and problemsolving. __3__ Another found that exposure to nature helped people score better on tests. There's more proof that going outside is a smart move!What accounts for the connection with cognition and creativity? It could be that a good dose of nature acts as a cure to information overload. Everyday life involves a lot of multitasking. Some scientists theorize that spending time in nature enables our brains to rest and recover from mental tiredness.__4__Naturally, scientific studies don't cover everything that's great about the great outdoors. __5__ From recreation and exercise to happiness and creativity, there are lots of upsides to getting outside.A．One study revealed that people were better at figuring out puzzles after a fourday camping trip.B.According to many scientific studies, there's a good chance it'll make you happier, healthier, and more creative.C.What's more, the lift people get from nature is long lasting.D．Lots of people enjoy fun activities outside, like swimming, riding bikes, or climbing trees.E．When the only light you've seen all day is the glow of a screen, it might be a good idea to switch it off.F．This means that whether you're studying or playing video games, heading outside to give your brain a break might help you get to the next level.G．So, kicking back in a park is a bit like treating your mind to a restful mini vacation.Test 2[2023·河北省衡水中学高三下学期调考]How to Increase Your Levels of OptimismThe way in which you achieve your goals, face challenges, and overcome failures depends largely on your levels of optimism. Not everyone sees life in the same way. __1__Change your negative thoughts. Your mind takes in negative memories and makes them bigger and more significant than they really are.__2__ The next step is to reduce them by comparing them to related or similar memories that are more pleasant. In this way, you gradually change them and select new thoughts. This requires a learning process that'll take some time to practice. However, with patience, you'll achieve the desired results.Express gratitude. When you face a challenge, it's advisable to figure out what's going well. By taking the time to do this, you allow yourself to register the positive aspects that you experience. To help your brain store these positive events, you should take time each week to analyze what you should be grateful for. __3__ Repeat positive affirmations(肯定). One key element for increasing your levels of optimism that you get with previous two steps is positive affirmations. In fact, these messages that you repeat to yourself most regularly are the ones that you believe in and that determine your vision of life. __4__ You can start with one or two affirmations that represent the values you want to live by and the goals you want to achieve. For example, tell yourself “Every day I'm improving” or “I'm living my best moment”． __5__ Furthermore, it'll make you stronger in the face of them and you'll maintain your optimism.A.People tend to hold the same attitude towards life.B．However, you can always train your mind to generate or maintain optimism.C.They must be repeated with strong belief and be a constant in your daily life.D．First you should figure out what matters in your life and focus on positive messages.E.Therefore, every time you have negative thoughts, analyze and view them more objectively.F．The next step is to let your loved ones know that you love them and you're grateful to them.G．The repetition of phrases similar to these will allow your mind to interpret negative events differently.Test 3[2023·衡水中学高三考前冲刺卷]How to Avoid Distractions While StudyingYou know you really want to do well in your study. Your parents have put the pressure on you, or you promised yourself you would do better. But you keep getting distracted (分心)! How can you solve the problem? __1__Find a place that makes you want to study. If the books and seriousness of the library put you in the mood for focusing on study, go for it. If the comfortable chairs and coffee at your local café are what you need to get through your readingfor English, go there. __2__Set a study schedule. When you have many subjects to study for, it can seem hard to get through everything. Give yourself a schedule where you set specific times to study particular subjects. __3__ Besides, change subjects every two hours.A little variety keeps you refreshed and focused.__4__ If you find yourself distracted from studying by thoughts about everything else, spend 5 minutes thinking about them, but then tell yourself studying is your main task now. If you are tired of study, step away. A short break helps refresh you so that you can stay focused when you come back to studying.Go off the electronic devices. Texting, social media, calls and other distractions that come from our electronic devices are some of the biggest barriers to staying focused when studying. __5__ Turn off the distracting electronic devices!A．Give yourself a brief study break.B．Go out for a picnic to refresh yourself.C．The following tips may give you a hand.D．Luckily, the fix is easy and totally within your control.E．It's no doubt that a library is the best place for studying well.F.This makes studying seem less difficult, helping you stay on task.G.The most important thing is that the location motivates you to study.[答题区]Test 1.1～5 ________________Test 2.1～5 ________________Test 3.1～5 ________________阅读七选五题型针对练(四)Test 1【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。

Things may not always go as planned, but being resourceful can help you stay calm and work your way out of tricky situations.Being resourceful means finding smart and creative ways to solve a problem, using whatever resources you have at the time.__1__ They can also be anything else thatʼs useful, such as information, advice or your own experience.It also means trusting your instincts, the ability youʼre born with, rather than through training and being confident about your ability to face challenges.A resourceful person is not the one getting cross or panicking when something goes wrong.Theyʼre thinking about how to solve the problem.__2__ When we learn to solve problems for ourselves rather than immediately going to others for help, it can help to build our confidence, help us feel more independent, and feel better about making decisions.Being resourceful may not help you avoid problems, but thinking creatively about how you can deal with them will make you feel less stressed and more prepared next time.__3__ This can boost self-esteem, that is, how you feel about yourself.When youʼre facing a challenge, try to focus on the actual problem rather than how you feel about it.Think about where and when it happened and what the causes are.Next, think up as many solutions to the problem as you can.__4__ Finally, review what has and hasnʼt worked, so youʼre equipped to deal with a situation next time.And remember, if you have a tricky problem that youʼre unable to solve, then ask a trusted adult for help.__5__A．You also learn what youʼre good at.B．Here is how you can be more resourceful.C．These may be practical things like pens and paper.D．No one is expected to solve all problems by themselves.E．Resourcefulness is a skill thatʼs good for you in lots of ways.F．They can be famous mottos that always inspire us to move on.G．Weigh up whatʼs good and bad about each one and choose the best.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。

Here are five ways to sustain (保持) longdistance friendships.•Set a regular dateLonglasting friendships share the characteristic that both sides equally contact (联系) and share with one another. With busy schedules, squeezing in phone calls can be a challenge. __36__.•More isn't always merrierMake sure you have communicated with your friend about how frequently each of you wants to be contacted and what method works best for you both. __37__. There are alternatives to constant written communication, such as leaving voice messages or having a group chat.•Practise empathy (共情)__38__. The friend who is remaining needs to be sensitive to all the additional time demands placed on the friend who has moved. The one in the new environment should be sympathetic to the fact that your friend may feel abandoned.•__39__Anniversaries and birthdays carry even more weight in longdistance friendships.

grandfather run businesses aroused a deep sense of curiosity within Ajay to explore entrepreneurship.While sending his daughter to playschool,he realized there was a gap in the quality of education provided.That’s when the idea of starting a playschool chain struck him.He launched Bachpan Play School in 2004 using his personal savings.Starting with one branch in Delhi,today the school has scaled up to1,100 branches across India.According to Ajay,what is unique about Bachpan’s story is the impact it has been able to create across Tier Ⅱ and Tier Ⅲ cities in India.“Education institutes seem crowded in big cities,but when you move away from them,the case is different,”says Ajay.Furthermore,in the smaller cities,many schools were established around 40 years ago,and they lacked quality.Ajay did not set out to penetrate(渗透) Tier Ⅱ and Tier Ⅲ cities exactly.His mission was to make preschool education more accessible and standardized.“I did not want Bachpan Play School to be a place where you send your kid for two months,”he says.“We made clear guidelines for teachers and syllabuses(教学大纲) for the kids monthly and annually.”Ajay adds that the particular curriculum,design,books,and well-thought-out strategy along with professional training are what shapes the core of Bachpan Play School chain.As offline classes shifted to online ones during the pandemic,Ajay’s company launched Bachpan Live platform in April 2020.It also launched Bachpan Live app to offer live classes,online books,and more.Since its launch,the platform has witnessed about 65,000 downloads.Ajay says,“The team has to consistently work towards improving the platform as parents of today have become very demanding.You cannot sell them anything.They want to see quality programs.”4.What did Ajay realize when he sent his daughter to playschool?A.There was a gap between his daughter and him.B.His daughter was not satisfied with her playschool.C.He could make a big profit by running a playschool.D.Some children couldn’t have access to quality education.5.What is special about Bachpan Play School?A.It is not very competitive in big cities.B.It is specially designed for disabled children.C.It is financially supported by the government.D.It has improved education quality in small cities.6.What did Ajay do to promote preschool education?A.He employed experienced teachers.B.He designed a two-month course for kids.C.He made preschool education more formal.D.He stressed the role of preschool education in society.7.What does Ajay expect Bachpan Live platform to do?A.Meet parents’ expectations.B.Invite kids to attend online classes.C.Replace offline classes in the future.D.Share more books and classes online.C(2023山东烟台一模)Parenting styles have changed over the years in response to the rapid changes in the world.Whether it is tapping technology or applying the best parenting practices to meet a parenting need,parents nowadays generally invest more time in finding out how best to raise their children.Modern parents often look to the Internet and social media for parenting advice.The availability of resources has helped modern parents engage more in their children’s development,both academicall y and emotionally.Modern parents are also more eager to find out effective parenting methods to help them raise disciplined and confident children.A modern parenting style that has emerged is helicopter parenting,where parents are much too focused on their children.They help children with tasks they’re capable of doing on their own,like selecting activities and friends for them,or calling their teachers about homework matters.Such a parenting style can hold back the development of the children’s ability to handle responsibilities independently.Children might be ill-equipped with life skills such as doing laundry (洗衣),clearing their plates or coping with their schoolwork.Always protecting children from failures may also prevent them developing adaptability and acquiring skills like problem-solving.On the other hand,parents in the past tended to monitor less.Children were given more control over how to manage their schoolwork and choose their friends.Domestic helpers were also not the norm then,hence children of the past were often expected to shoulder the responsibilities of caring for younger brothers and sisters and managing housework.Living in the pre-internet age,parents were less informed about different parenting methods,and their parenting styles were guided more by their personalities,common sense and friendly advice from the extended family and neighbors,rather than by social media influences or parenting websites.There is no one right way to raise a child.Each child is unique and should be raised differently by parents who are present but not wandering,who are supportive but not controlling,and who protect but not care too much.8.What does the underlined word “tapping” mean in paragraph 1?A.Employing.B.Tracking.C.Monitoring.D.Identifying.9.What is a distinctive characteristic of helicopter parenting?A.Flexible.B.Efficient.C.Conventional.D.Overinvolved.10.What do we know about parents in the past?A.They educated kids in a rigid way.B.They overestimated their kids’ independence.C.They afforded kids more space for self-growth.D.They tended to stay away from social activities.11.What does the text mainly tell us?A.How to raise all-round children.B.How to enhance parent-child bonds.C.How parenting modes have shifted over the years.D.How information technology boosts people’s lifestyles.D(2023山东济南一模)In conversations with strangers,people commonly tend to think they should speak less than half the conversation time to be likable.But we’ve discovered this idea is wrong.Our data shows that people tend to think they should speak about 45% of the time to be likable in a one-on-one conversation with someone new.However,it appears speaking up a bit more is actually a better strategy.In our research,we randomly assigned people to speak for 30%,40%,50%,60% of the time in a conversation with someone new.We found that the more they spoke,the more they were liked by their new partners.This was only one study with 116 participants,but the outcome is supported by other researchers’ findings.For example,a previous study randomly assigned one in a pair to take on the role of“speaker” and the other to take on the role of “listener”.After engaging in 12-minute interactions,listeners liked speakers more than speakers liked listeners because listeners felt more similar to speakers than speakers did to listeners.This outcome suggests the reason people prefer those who speak up:Learning more about a new partner can make you feel like you have more in common with him or her.Further,we assigned people to speak for up to 70% and even 90% of the time.The result shows it is not an ideal strategy.Our research does not suggest people hold down a conversational partner but rather that they feel comfortable speaking up more than they usually might.Research like ours can help people gain a more reasonable understanding of social interactions withnew people and become more confident about how to make a good first impression.It has the obvious benefit of allowing us to carefully control speaking time.However,it does not reflect more natural conversations.Future research should figure out whether our findings generalize to more natural interactions.12.What is the common belief concerning conversations with strangers?A.Speaking a little less is preferred.B.Speaking half the time is the best.C.Listeners are more likable than speakers.D.Listeners fail to control the conversations.13.How was the research carried out?A.By analyzing speaking habits.B.By making comparisons.C.By listing examples.D.By collecting data.14.What is the disadvantage of the research?A.The conversation time is limited.B.Further study is hard to continue.C.The findings are less widely appliable.D.Interactions with strangers are missing.15.In which situation can the research finding be applied?A.Attending a family gathering.B.Partying with your friends.C.Meeting a new teacher.D.Making a public speech.Ⅱ.七选五(2023浙江温州二模)Museums can be overwhelming.With thousands of pieces there,how do you know which to focus on?And once you see a piece you like,how do you interact with it?Here is some advice on how to have a meaningful connection when you look at art.Get up close and personal.1 Therefore,take your time to observe qualities about a work that may not come through on a computer screen.That includes its look and the feel of its surface,the marks made by the brush and the path your eyes take when viewing the work.Stand back.Next,take a few steps back,stand in the center —and observe what’s happening in the big picture.What’s going on i n the piece?2 What are they doing?How are they related?Look at it from an angle.Then try looking at an artwork from its sides,because you might catch something you might not have seen straight on.If it’s something like The Ambassadors by Holbein at The National Gallery in London,if you stand to the side,you’ll see something that from front on looks very different.3That’s called anamorphic art.Move your body.If you’re looking at a painting,you can take a finger to the air and trace the outline of the figure or the movement of the brushstrokes.4 This can help you see and feel what it might be like to make this artwork from the artist’s perspective.Consider the subject of the art.That can have a profound effect on how you feel about the work—and perhaps you can learn something from it.Take the example of Andrew Wyeth’s famous painting,Christina’s World,which depicts (描绘) a girl with a muscle disease crawling across a field to get to her home in the distance.The painting personifies (体现) determination.5A.So just keep an open mind.B.What have they gone through?C.When you stand to the side,it changes.D.How are the figures in the piece arranged?E.We have the luxury of seeing the real thing at a museum.F.When looking at sculptures,try the poses with your body.G.It can in a way relieve your stress to know we have this inner strength.答案：Ⅰ.A[语篇解读]本文是一篇应用文。

They greet one another, travel together, share food and groom (梳毛) each other. Animal friends are nice to one another，and they even play together. __2__.Playing together, for instance, helps animals bond and keeps them close to the group. “Coyote pups who don't play together are more likely to go out on their own. __3__.” says Bekoff. “If an animal has a special friend，both friends benefit by having someone to watch out for them.”__4__. When a young rhinoceros sets out on its own for the first time，it may look for an older travel friend，and this companion helps to find food and water and avoid predators. Young male elephants hang out together when they leave their mothers' herds，and young dolphins do，too. Pairs of bottlenose dolphins sometimes form strong bonds and pal around together for years. Among chimpanzee groups，some pair up to groom each other，hunt together, share food and defend each other from danger.Why do animals have friends? “Mainly because in the long run they benefit from friendships，” scientist Franz de Waal says. “It is all give and take. __5__.”A.Young animals often team up for protectionB．He believes that many animals do have friendsC．He thinks that many animals seldom have friendsD．Therefore，playing together sometimes is harmfulE．And leaving the protection of the group can be dangerousF．This friendly behavior can be important to an animal's survivalG．Sometimes one gives more, and the other takes more，but in the end both parties gainTest 2[2022·福州市高三质检]We all have things that we want to achieve in our lives—getting into the better shape, building a successful business, raising a wonderful family, and so on. __1__ At least, this is how I approached my life goals until recently.What I'm starting to realize, however, is that when it comes to actually getting things done and making progress in the areas that are important to you, there is a much better way to do things. It all comes down to the difference between goals and systems. __2__ Your system is the writing schedule that you follow each week. Now for the really interesting question: If you completely ignored your goals and focused only on your system, would you still get results? I think you would.__3__ In the last 12 months, I've written over 115，000 words. The typical book is about 50，000 to 60，000 words, so I have written enough to fill two books this year. All of this is such a surprise because I never set a goal for my writing. I didn't measure my progress in relation to some benchmark. __4__ I never said, “I want to write two books this year.” What I did focus on was writing one article every Monday and Thursday. I focused on my system and the process of doing the work. And after sticking to that schedule for 11 months, the result was 115, 000 words. In the end, I enjoyed the same (or perhaps better) results.Goals are good for planning your progress and systems are good for actually making progress.

Having a system is what matters. __5__A．None of this is to say that goals are useless.B．If you're a writer, your goal is to write a book.C．Forget about predicting the future and build a system.D．I never set a word count goal for any particular article.E．Committing to the process is what makes the difference.F．And for most of us, the path to those things starts by setting a specific goal.G．As an example, I just added up the total word count for the articles I've written this year.Test 3The Danger of Overusing Exclamation Marks (感叹号) I'm wellknown for my cheerfulness. Even on my worst days, I still put on a happy face to communicate with people. __1__.I used to catch myself using exclamation marks at the end of every sentence in emails to express friendliness. __2__. Just look at the last few messages you sent. If you're like me, you will probably see exclamation marks throughout your emails, “I'm excited to hear from you！” and “I'm happy to help out！” But really?The reality is that I'm not always excited to hear from someone I don't know. __3__，because I have my own work to do. But fearing others dislike me, my tone is always enthusiastic with exclamation marks, even when the situation doesn't need it.Sure, people will think I'm nice，but I sacrifice a lot in this process. First，when I manage others' feelings in this way, I'm putting my own needs second. __4__. And what's worse, it's unnecessary. As I've learned the danger of overusing exclamation marks, I've decided to use them more properly. __5__. Like a wellplaced smile，a thoughtful exclamation mark connects me to the people I communicate with.A．I'm not always happy to helpB．I used to be hesitant to refuse othersC．The chances are that you've sent those emails tooD．Managing other people's feelings is exhaustingE．There are many ways to build a connection beyond punctuationF．This behaviour can be found in my emails as exclamation marksG．Now I use exclamation marks only when it feels honest and authenticTest 4[2022·石家庄市高三质检]The news plays an important role in our lives, which has been emphasized even further during the past year.

2021年高考英语二轮专题复习《七选五》041.The Science of Risk-SeekingSometimes we decide that a little unnecessary danger is worth it because when we weigh the risk and the reward, the risk seems worth taking. （1）Some of us enjoy activities that would surprise and scare the rest of us. Why? Experts say it may have to do with how our brains work.The reason why any of us take any risks at all might have to do with early humans.Risk-takers were better at hunting, fighting, or exploring. （2）As the quality of risk-taking was passed from one generation to the next, humans ended up witha sense of adventure and a tolerance for risk.So why aren’t we all jumping out of airplanes then?Well, even 200,000 years ago, too much risk-taking could get one killed. A few daring survived, though, along with a few stay-in-the-cave types. As a result, humans developed a range of character types that still exists today. So maybe you love car racing, or maybe you hate it.（3）No matter where you are on the risk-seeking range, scientists say that your willingness to take risks increases during your teenage years. （4）To help you do that, your brain increases your hunger for new experiences. New experiences often mean taking some risks, so your brain raises your tolerance for risk as well.（5）For the risk-seekers, a part of the brain related to pleasure becomes active, while for the rest of us, a part of the brain related to fear becomes active.As experts continue to study the science of risk-seeking, we’ll continue to hit the mountains, the waves or the shallow end of the pool.A.It all depends on your character.B.Those are the risks you should jump to take.C.Being better at those things meant a greater chance of survival.D.Thus,these well-equipped people survived because they were the fittest.E.This is when you start to move away from your family and into the bigger world.F.However,we are not all using the same reference standard to weigh risks andrewards.G.New brain research suggests our brains work differently when we face a nervoussituation.2.根据短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

this month to see which city puts on the best show.NewYorkNew York Fashion Week (NYFW),kicks off on September 5th and runs for approximately eight days.NYFW is considered the most commercial and casual of the four.It is also the only event to allow some fashion school students to participate,bringing a fresh look to the runway.LondonLondon Fashion Week (LFW) comes on the heels of NYFW,starting on September 13th and running through September 17th.Once considered a minor player among the “Big Four”,LFW can now command a list of big names as well as promising new designers.London fashion houses have a reputation for being very experimental and open to new ideas.MilanFashion Week moves to Milan on September 17th.This beautiful Italian city is home to some of the biggest fashion

Paris Fashion Week begins on September 23rd.Saving the best for last,Paris never fails to offer some of the most exciting shows of the season.World-famous brands like Chanel and Dior try to outdo one

I was young.Those visits were fantastic.The library might have been the first place where I was ever given autonomy(自主权).In the library,I could have anything I wanted.And on the ride back home,my mom and I would talk about the order in which we were going to read our books,a solemn conversation in which we planned how to pace ourselves through this charming period until the books were due.When I left for college,one of the many ways I differentiated myself from my mom was that I was wild about owning books.All I know is that I lost my appreciation of the slow pace of making my way through a library and of having books on borrowed time.If my mother ever mentioned to me that she was on the waiting list for some book at the library,I got annoyed and asked why she didn’t just b uy it.But in 2011,one of my son’s school assignments was to interview someone who worked for the city.He said he wanted to interview a librarian.As my son and I drove to meet the librarian,I was flooded by a sense of absolute familiarity,a recollection of the journey of the parent and child on their way to the library.I had taken this trip so many times before,but at that moment I turned my thought on its head,and I was the parent bringing my child on that special trip.As I walked into the library,nothing had changed—the sense of gentle,steady busyness,like a pot of water on a rolling boil (沸点),was just the same.In the library,time is dammed up—not just stopped but saved.I knew what hooked me was the shock of familiarity I felt—the way it revealed my childhood,my relationship with my mom,my love of books.However,as I was rediscovering those memories,my mother was losing all of hers.The writer Amadou Hampâté Bâ once said that inAfrica,whenever an old man dies,it is like a library has burned.But if you can take something from his or her internal collection and share it,it takes on a life of its own.4.What can be inferred about the author’s childhood from Paragraph 1?A.She lived near a library.B.She possessed a library.C.She didn’t borrow books from librar ies.D.She enjoyed visits to libraries.5.How did the author change after entering college?A.She lost her enthusiasm for reading.B.She did not return books on time.C.She quit the habit of going to libraries.D.She wanted to buy books for her mom.6.What did the author rediscover when she walked into the library with her son?A.Her love of libraries.B.Her delight in owning books.C.Her lost memory of her mom.D.Her familiarity with her mom.7.Which can be the title of this passage?A.The Library—a World of KnowledgeB.The Library—a Place of MemoryC.The Library—a Busy PlaceD.The Library—an Old ManC(2020重庆第一次抽测)At first glance,there is nothing unusual about the BingoBox store—shelves stacked with snacks line the walls,tempting passers-by through the glass windows.But on closer inspection,BingoBox is no ordinary store.The door opens only after customers scan a QR code to enter,and there is no cashier to tally up purchases—just a lone checkout counter in a corner.The Shanghai-based company is one of many unmanned store operators opening outlets all over China,hoping to improve slim profit margins in the retail business by reducing staff costs.“If capital costs rise quickly,that puts greater pressure onlow-margin businesses like convenience stores and sup ermarkets,”said Andrew Song,an analyst at Guotai Junan Securities.“In China,manpower costs have been rising relatively quickly.”However,the futuristic vision of shopping without a checkout person is still in progress.A reporter who visited a BingoBox store in Shanghai was briefly locked in when he was trying to exit without making a purchase.Although a sign near the exit stated that empty-handed customers can leave by scanning a QR code,no QR code was to be found.Repeated calls to the customer service hotline went unanswered.Another unmanned operation in China,Take Go,only allows one customer in the shop at a time because of technology limitations in using multiple cameras for scanning customers’ faces.The idea of unmanned stores first caught the world’s attention when the largest US online retailer announced its cashier-less store,which is only available to employees for now.Since then,some technology companies in China,including the e-commerce firm Alibaba Group,have launched their own versions of unmanned stores.Embedded with technology such as RFID tags,mobile payment systems and facial recognition systems,such stores collect valuable data that give operators a better idea of consumers’ preference and buyinghabits,which can then be used to optimize the operation and make moreefficient inventory decisions.For BingoBox,lower operating costs also mean it can afford to expand its reach to areas with less foot traffic,according to Chen Zilin,the founder and CEO of BingoBox.8.What makes the BingoBox store look like an ordinary convenience store?A.Shelves stacked with goods.B.A lone checkout counter.C.Fewer cashiers to tally up purchases.D.Entering by scanning a QR code.9.Why are unmanned stores popular with operators?A.The customers prefer mobile payment systems.B.The unmanned stores help improve profit with lower labor costs.C.The employees focus on consumers’ preference and buying habits.D.The operators care more about operations and inventory decisions.10.How many cases can show that the unmanned stores need improving?A.Two.B.Three.C.Four.D.Five.11.What can we infer according to Chen Zilin?A.Nowadays all stores should be equipped with advanced technology.B.The operators collect data about consumers’ preference and buying habits.C.BingoBox made wiser decisions based on the data collected in unmanned stores.D.The operators can open unmanned supermarkets in more remote places with low costs.D(2020四川成都第一次诊断)This morning we’re going to head off down into the wetland,a very specific kind of wetland called the Prairie fen.You can find Nate Fuller counting butterflies.The Sarett Nature Center needs an accurate count of Mitchell’s satyr butterflies to help preserve one of their last known habitats.They’re very particular about the kind of habitat where they can live,which is part of what makes them so rare and amazing indicators for our water quality.Today,Sarett expert Ashley Cole-Wick with Michigan’s Natural Features Inventory helps Fuller count.She says,“When I first started working on the butterfly in 2013,we had 18 populations and in 2019,we had 10.”The Mitchell’s satyr butterfly went on the endangered species list in 1991.Initially it was thought that loss of wetlands contributed to their decline.Fuller says,“It’s not just habitat a vailability.The quantity and quality of groundwater coming into these wetlands seem to be a challenge for the butterfly.Nothing has all been sorted out exactly.”While the decline is likely a combination of factors,the fact that water quality might contribute is alarming because the wetlands are the headwaters for the Midwest’s rivers and streams.A captive breeding (人工繁殖) program was started four years ago at the Toledo Zoo to help get to the bottom of the mystery.Today Director Ryan Walsh who heads the pro gram says it’s been the only successful captive breeding program.The caterpillars (毛毛虫) spent the winter in a special weather control room that helped determine the Mitchell’s satyrs don’t do well below 4.4 degrees Celsius.With that knowledge,the program produced 1,300 new eggs,a development that may go a long way toward restoringthe population.And if all goes well,may one day the Mitchell’s satyr butterfly earn a ticket off the endangered species list.12.What are the indicators for the water quality?A.The habitats.B.The butterflies.C.The wetlands.D.The experts.13.What is the main idea of the third paragraph?A.The importance of water quality.B.Actions taken to protect the Mitchell’s satyr butterflies.C.The reasons why the number of Mitchell’s satyr butterflies declines.D.The natural conditions for the Mitchell’s satyr butterflies.14.What does the underlined word “restoring” in Paragraph 4 most probably mean?A.Preserving.B.Increasing.C.Recovering.D.Controlling.15.What can we learn about the butterfly?A.It can easily be found.B.It is not endangered now.C.It will die above 4.4 degrees Celsius.D.It can be bred by humans.Ⅱ.七选五(2020河南郑州第一次预测)Are people less or more happy when they get older?A study in 2018 found that people generally become happier and experience less worry after age 50.In fact,it found that by the age of 85,people are happier with their life than they were at 18.Arthur Stone in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Science at Stony Brook University in New York led the study.His team found that levels of stress were the highest among adults between the ages of 22 and 25. 16Happiness was the highest among the youngest adults and those in their early 70s.But the people least likely to report feeling negative emotionswere those in their 70s and 80s.The survey also found that men and women have similar emotional patterns as they grow older. 17 The researchers also considered possible influences like having young children,being unemployed or being single.But they found that influences like these did not affect the levels of happiness and well-being related to age.18 One theory is that,as people get older,they become more thankful for what they have and have better control of their emotions.They also spend less time thinking about bad experiences.19 In another study,people in their 80s reported the fewest problems with the quality of their sleep.The original goal was to confirm the popular belief that aging is connected with increased sleep problems.20 But except for that,people reported that they felt their sleep quality improved as they got older.A.So why will happiness increase with age?B.Researchers surveyed more than 150,000 American adults.C.At that time,the people were between the ages of 18 and 85.D.Stress levels dropped sharply after people reached their 50s.E.Happiness is not the only thing that apparently improves with age.F.The survey did find an increase during middle age,especially in women.G.However,women at all ages reported more sadness,stress and worry than men.【帮你拓知识】核心知识,词块记忆①hostthefashionweek举办时装周②kickoffonSeptember5th9月5号隆重开始③bringafreshlook带来全新面貌④comeontheheelsof紧随其后⑤haveareputationfor因……享有赞誉⑥befloodedby被……淹没⑦asenseofabsolutefamiliarity一种非常熟悉的感觉⑧revealmychildhood重回儿时⑨atfirstglance乍一看⑩oncloserinspection再近前看anunmannedstore无人值班商店improveslimprofitmargins提升微薄的利润空间reducestaffcosts减少人力成本putpressureon施加压力aconveniencestore便利店acheckoutperson收银员makeapurchase购买thecustomerservicehotline顾客热线catchtheworld’sattention获得世界的关注facialrecognitionsystems面部识别系统参考答案阅读理解+七选五阅读限时组合练4Ⅰ.【语篇导读】这是一篇应用文。
