阅读理解（二）
A few years ago, a friend sent me a restaurant gift card for Christmas, and I
picked a pretty, sunny Sunday afternoon to use it. It felt good taking my two grown sons and
daughter to a nice sit-down restaurant instead of the fast food places we usually ate at. The meal
was delicious, and we all had a good time just being together. The gift card covered almost all of
the check. I reached into my wallet to get enough cash to cover the rest. I saw two bills in the front
of it. The first would cover the rest of the check. The second would cover the check and
give the waitress a nice tip.I reached down to pick out the first one.
At that moment, my mind flashed back to 30 years ago. I was working as a busboy (餐厅勤
杂工) in a restaurant much like the one we were in. It was long hours of hard work for
low pay. I went home just barely making enough to feed my young family. I also remembered
how more than once I saw the waitresses counting their small tips while worrying about how they
were going to pay the rent and buy their kids the things they needed.I remembered the pain in their
eyes and saw the sadness in their faces at the end of the day.
I blinked (眨眼睛) and was back in the present again, with my fingers touching the smaller
bill in my wallet. I smiled, pushed it back down and picked out the larger bill. I folded it around
the gift card and covered both of them with the check. As we all got up from the table, I handed
them to the hardworking waitress. "You keep the change,"I said with a smile and a happy heart.
We are all one family in this world. We live together and suffer together. Do your best to be
kind. Do your best to be a good person and replace the suffering with joy.
1. What do we know from the first paragraph
A. The author's family had a hard life.
B. The gift card was enough to pay the check.
C. The author seldom ate together with his family.
D. The author values spending time with his children.
2. The author mentioned his working experience as a busboy to______.
A. describe struggles he faced in the past
B. complain about his job at the restaurant
C. explain why he chose the larger bill
D. show how hard waiters work
3. How did the author feel after giving the tip to the waitress
A. Moved. B. Pleased. C. Puzzled. D. Concerned.
4. What is the author's main purpose in writing this article
A. To tell people to be kind.
B. To remind us not to forget our hard days.
C. To stress the importance of tipping servers.
D. To show that we should thank friends and family.
5. Which is the best title of the passage
A. Tipping: a kind tradition
B. Helping hand for servers
C. Working as a busboy
D. Kindness makes the world go around

（2021 新高考全国卷 I，D 篇）
Popularization has in some cases changed the original meaning of emotional (情感的)
intelligence. Many people now misunderstand emotional intelligence as almost everything
desirable in a person's makeup that cannot be measured by an IQ test, such as character,
motivation, confidence, mental stability, optimism and “people skills.” Research has shown that
emotional skills may contribute to some of these qualities, but most of them move far beyond
skill-based emotional intelligence.
We prefer to describe emotional intelligence as a specific set of skills that can be used for
either good or bad purposes. The ability to accurately understand how others are feeling may be
used by a doctor to find how best to help her patients, while a cheater might use it to control
potential victims. Being emotionally intelligent does not necessarily make one a moral person.
Although popular beliefs regarding emotional intelligence run far ahead of what research can
reasonably support, the overall effects of the publicity have been more beneficial than harmful.
The most positive aspect of this popularization is a new and much needed emphasis (重视) on
emotion by employers, educators and others interested in promoting social well-being. The
popularization of emotional intelligence has helped both the public and researchers re-evaluate the
functionality of emotions and how they serve people adaptively in everyday life.
Although the continuing popular appeal of emotional intelligence is desirable, we hope that
such attention will excite a greater interest in the scientific and scholarly study of emotion. It is
our hope that in coming decades, advances in science will offer new perspectives (视角) from
which to study how people manage their lives. Emotional intelligence, with its focus on both head
and heart, may serve to point us in the right direction. (297 words)
1. What is a common misunderstanding of emotional intelligence
A. It can be measured by an IQ test.
B. It helps to exercise a person’s mind.
C. It includes a set of emotional skills.
D. It refers to a person’s positive qualities.
2. Why does the author mention “doctor” and “cheater” in paragraph 2
A. To explain a rule. B. To clarify a concept.
C. To present a fact. D. To make a prediction.
3. What is the author’s attitude to the popularization of emotional intelligence
A. Favorable. B. Intolerant. C. Doubtful. D. Unclear.
4. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about concerning emotional intelligence
A. Its appeal to the public. B. Expectations for future studies.
C. Its practical application. D. Scientists with new perspectives.
【答案】DBAB
【文章大意】这是一篇说明文，文章介绍了情商的定义以及对有关于情商未来研究的期望。
1. D 细节理解题。通过文章第一段“Research has shown that emotional skills may contribute to
some of these qualities (研究表明，情商技巧可能有助于这些品质的形成)”可知，情商指的并
不是一个人的积极品质。故选 D 项。
2. B 推理判断题。通过文章第二段“The ability to accurately understand how others are feeling
may be used by a doctor to find how best to help her patients, while a cheater might use it to
control potential victims. (医生可能利用这种准确理解他人感受的能力来找到最好的帮助病
人的方法，而骗子可能利用这种能力来控制潜在的受害者)”可推知，作者在文章第二段中提
到“医生”和“骗子”是举例子来阐明下文的观点—情商高并不一定能使一个人成为有道德的人。
故选 B 项。
3. A 推理判断题。通过文章第三段“the overall effects of the publicity have been more beneficial
than harmful. …The popularization of emotional intelligence has helped both the public and
researchers (宣传的总体效果一直是利大于弊。这种普及最积极的方面是雇主、教育者和其
他对促进社会福利感兴趣的人对情感进行了新的、迫切需要的强调。情商的普及帮助了公众
和研究人员)”可推知，作者认为情商普及是对人们有利的。故选 A 项。
4. B 推理判断题。通过文章最后一段“we hope that such attention will excite a greater interest in
the scientific and scholarly study of emotion. It is our hope that in coming decades, advances in
science will offer new perspectives from which to study how people manage their lives. (我们希
望这种关注将激发人们对情感科学和学术研究的更大兴趣。我们希望在未来的几十年里，科
学的进步将为研究人们如何管理自己的生活提供新的视角)”可推知，本段主要谈了对未来关
于情商研究的期望。故选 B 项。Unit 3 Family matters

A few years ago, a friend sent me a restaurant gift card for Christmas, and I
picked a pretty, sunny Sunday afternoon to use it. It felt good taking my two grown sons and
daughter to a nice sit-down restaurant instead of the fast food places we usually ate at. The meal
was delicious, and we all had a good time just being together. The gift card covered almost all of
the check. I reached into my wallet to get enough cash to cover the rest. I saw two bills in the front
of it. The first would cover the rest of the check. The second would cover the check and
give the waitress a nice tip.I reached down to pick out the first one.
At that moment, my mind flashed back to 30 years ago. I was working as a busboy (餐厅勤
杂工) in a restaurant much like the one we were in. It was long hours of hard work for
low pay. I went home just barely making enough to feed my young family. I also remembered
how more than once I saw the waitresses counting their small tips while worrying about how they
were going to pay the rent and buy their kids the things they needed.I remembered the pain in their
eyes and saw the sadness in their faces at the end of the day.
I blinked (眨眼睛) and was back in the present again, with my fingers touching the smaller
bill in my wallet. I smiled, pushed it back down and picked out the larger bill. I folded it around
the gift card and covered both of them with the check. As we all got up from the table, I handed
them to the hardworking waitress. "You keep the change,"I said with a smile and a happy heart.
We are all one family in this world. We live together and suffer together. Do your best to be
kind. Do your best to be a good person and replace the suffering with joy.

（2021 新高考全国卷 I，D 篇）
Popularization has in some cases changed the original meaning of emotional (情感的)
intelligence. Many people now misunderstand emotional intelligence as almost everything
desirable in a person's makeup that cannot be measured by an IQ test, such as character,
motivation, confidence, mental stability, optimism and “people skills.” Research has shown that
emotional skills may contribute to some of these qualities, but most of them move far beyond
skill-based emotional intelligence.
We prefer to describe emotional intelligence as a specific set of skills that can be used for
either good or bad purposes. The ability to accurately understand how others are feeling may be
used by a doctor to find how best to help her patients, while a cheater might use it to control
potential victims. Being emotionally intelligent does not necessarily make one a moral person.
Although popular beliefs regarding emotional intelligence run far ahead of what research can
reasonably support, the overall effects of the publicity have been more beneficial than harmful.
The most positive aspect of this popularization is a new and much needed emphasis (重视) on
emotion by employers, educators and others interested in promoting social well-being. The
popularization of emotional intelligence has helped both the public and researchers re-evaluate the
functionality of emotions and how they serve people adaptively in everyday life.
Although the continuing popular appeal of emotional intelligence is desirable, we hope that
such attention will excite a greater interest in the scientific and scholarly study of emotion. It is
our hope that in coming decades, advances in science will offer new perspectives (视角) from
which to study how people manage their lives. Emotional intelligence, with its focus on both head
and heart, may serve to point us in the right direction. (297 words)
