[河北邢台六校2023高一联考]
Good morning, teachers, boys, and girls,
First of all, let me introduce myself to the new faces. I am Mr Chung Fat Shing, the head teacher of this school. I welcome you to our big family and hope that you will enjoy your stay and grow with us in the coming years.
For you, who have just graduated from junior high school, big challenges are waiting when you get to higher grades. As the saying goes, “The early bird catches the worm.” So, start planning and preparing today. It is also important to develop learning strategies. For example, set a reasonable goal and a workable timetable for study and stick closely to it; do critical thinking（批判性思维）to make sure that you understand your subjects completely before you revise them effectively.
When you feel down or at a loss, don’t hesitate to get support from your schoolmates, teachers, or the school social workers. Winston Churchill, the British Prime Minister during the Second World War, once said, “Success consists of going from failure to failure without loss of enthusiasm（热情）.” So, don’t lose heart though you may face difficulties and failures. With a strong will, confidence, and perseverance（毅力）, you’ll surely be able to achieve good results in the future.
Dear boys and girls, senior high school is full of challenges, which will become good opportunities if you know how to face them properly. I strongly believe that under the careful guidance of your teachers and with your own hard work, you can improve yourselves and make school life enjoyable and rewarding（有益的）.
Thank you.

[广东中山2022高一期末] B
Finally came Wednesday! I walked onto campus feeling nervous even though I had walked on these same grounds for two years because my junior high school is next door. Everything looked and felt different now that I was in senior high.
I looked at my schedule. The first period—German. Our German teacher was very friendly and I liked her from the beginning. What I didn’t like, though, was that I was surrounded by students from other grades, with only five familiar faces.
Then I had to walk all the way across campus and up three flights of stairs to get to my second period—biology. Our biology teacher is Ms Campeau, and I think that she will teach us a lot this year because she is very to the point. She also has her unique way of saying “be quiet”; she says “alligator”. She explained that she is the king, or should I say queen, of the class because alligators are the “king of the swamps（沼泽）”.
My third class was English. After surviving two periods without too much of a challenge, I began to feel good. However, the third period changed everything. Mr Valassidis, my English teacher, told us that we would have to write 40 essays（文章）and read AP-level books such as The Odyssey this year. I love reading and writing, but 40 ESSAYS AP-level books Now I was scared. He also talked about how important it was to be focused. Last year was not a very “focused” year for me. While doing homework, I was often talking on the phone, or busy with a conversation online. I planned on being more attentive this year because I wanted to stay an honours student.

语法填空中通常有3至4个空是无提示词的，这类设空一般是填冠词、介词、连词、从句引导词等。在解答此类题目时，首先应该根据设空处所在的位置，考虑其在句中作什么成分，或者具有什么功能，然后判断选择哪一类词，再根据设空处前后的信息，选择合适的词。如本空出现在一个名词短语前，首先考虑冠词或介词；分析句子结构可知，此处是主语Andrew Matthews的同位语，也是一个名词短语，应该用冠词修饰，故可以排除介词；结合语境可以判断，这里表泛指，表示“一位澳大利亚的作家”，应用不定冠词；再根据Australian的发音可以判断应用不定冠词an。
4.___
at
解析 句意为：你可能认为你不太擅长学校里的一些科目，或者你不可能成为一名作家。结合句意可知，此处表示“擅长做某事”，应用固定短语be good at。故填at
5.__________
impossible
解析 句意见上一题解析。设空处作表语，根据语境可知，此处表示“不可能的”，应用形容词possible的反义词。故填impossible。
6._________
achieving
解析 句意为：这类想法会阻碍你实现你的梦想。stop sb（from）doing sth为固定短语，意为 “阻止某人做某事”，此处省略了from。故填achieving。
【知识拓展】表示“阻止某人做某事”的常用表达
stop sb（from）doing sth; prevent sb（from）doing sth; keep sb from doing sth
7.______
what
解析 句意为：不断告诉你自己你想要什么。分析句子结构可知，设空处引导宾语从句，作telling的宾语；从句中的want缺少宾语，表示“……的东西/事情”，应用what引导该从句。
8._________
is made.
解析 句意为：一步一步地这样做，你的梦想会更早实现，因为一个大梦想是由许多小梦想组成的。设空处在because引导的原因状语从句中作谓语，从句主语a big dream和make up之间是被动关系，需要用被动语态；且a big dream是单数，谓语动词用第三人称单数形式；此处陈述的是客观事实，故用一般现在时。故填is made。
9.__________
difficulties
解析 句意为：在实现梦想的路上会有很多困难，但最大的困难来自你自己。此处作there be句型中的主语，表示“困难”，应用名词difficulty，根据空前的many可知，此处应用其复数形式。故填difficulties。
10.________
yourself
解析 句意见上一题解析。结合语境可知，此处表示“你自己”，应用反身代词。故填yourself。

[东北师大附中2023高一段测] B
When I was in primary school, my favourite place was the library. I was the kid who got shouted at for trying to bring home sixty books at a time because I just couldn't decide which world I wanted to experience that week. I remember spending my weekends glued to a book, hungering for experiencing lives other than my own. Up until middle school, reading was a passion（酷爱）of mine.
Something changed after I entered senior high school though. All of a sudden, reading was a task that I could not avoid fast enough. The books that I read in school bored me, or even if I enjoyed the books themselves, the challenging homework I completed based on those books made me hate reading as a whole.
It actually wasn’t until recently that I rediscovered my love for reading. You may ask how I did that. Audiobooks（有声书）. Last summer, I spent every morning taking long walks while listening to them, and I would find myself lost in the stories for hours. And now I’m rediscovering my passion for reading. I feel that pull again. That curiosity.
My love story with reading may have had a happy ending, but not everyone is as lucky as me. What went wrong
What will happen is that students lose their love for reading because of the way many schools try to encourage children to read. For example, when a child is told to read for twenty minutes every night, they will read for the required amount of time and then check the task off on their list. In this way, reading has suddenly become a boring task instead of an exciting experience.
Making sure that kids keep their passion for reading will require us to rethink how we teach reading in schools and how we introduce books to children outside of school as well. There needs to be less of a focus on meeting reading requirements and more of a focus on creating an environment in which students are actually excited to read.

单元限时小卷
Would a faster reading speed mean that we could learn more Some people claim that it’s possible. In July 2015, the six-time World Speed Reading Champion Anne Jones sat down to read Harper Lee’s Go Set a Watchman. Just 25 minutes and 31 seconds later, she finished it—which equals a reading rate of around 3,700 words per minute. Jones runs training courses teaching speed reading, recall and concentration techniques and there are numerous speed reading apps that have appeared on the market over the past few years. But do they actually work
First, we need to understand how we read. The human eye movement system is central to our reading ability. Read over a sentence again, and think about how your eyes scan across the words. They don’t move smoothly over them. Instead, they make a series of short, sharp jumps, skipping over a few characters before briefly landing on a word. The movements are known as saccades（扫视）and the pauses are called fixations.
建议用时：43分钟
Reading isn’t just about seeing the words—you need to comprehend them to build up a picture about what the text means. People are able to get through a piece of text faster, but at the cost of accuracy and understanding. In other words, if you use a speed reading app, then you’ll probably get the gist（主旨）of a piece of text, but you’ll struggle to recall details about what you’ve just read.
So, does speed reading work Well, yes and no. It really depends on what you’re reading and why you need to read it. As yet, there isn’t a trick that enables you to read a piece of text both quickly and accurately—there’s always going to be a trade-off.
【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了快速阅读的作用及其局限性。
1.What’s the main idea of the passage ( )
C
A.Speed reading is bad at times. B.Speed reading is a waste of time.
C.Speed reading can work sometimes. D.Speed reading is always enjoyable.
解析 主旨大意题。第一段最后一句But do they actually work 对快速阅读是否有用提出疑问，接着第二段介绍了阅读能力与人眼运动系统有关，再结合第四段中的So, does speed reading work Well, yes and no. It really depends on what you’re reading and why you need to read it.可知，本文的主旨是：速读在有些时候是有效的。故选C项。
2.What can we know from the passage ( )
D
A.Reading apps ensure we read much faster.
B.Fast reading makes us learn more knowledge.
C.Reading is no more than seeing the text.
D.The reading ability is related to the eye movement system.
解析 细节理解题。根据第二段第二句The human eye movement system is central to our reading ability.可知，人眼运动系统对我们的阅读能力很重要，因此阅读能力与人眼运动系统有关。故选D项。
3.What does the underlined word “trade-off ” most probably mean in the last paragraph ( )
A
A.Balance. B.Change. C.Business. D.Bargain.
解析 词义猜测题。根据最后一段破折号前面的内容As yet, there isn’t a trick that enables you to read a piece of text both quickly and accurately可知，到目前为止，还没有一个技巧能让你快速而准确地阅读一段文字，破折号后的内容为进一步说明，即阅读总是要在快速和准确之间建立平衡，由此猜测出画线词意为“平衡”，故选A项。
4.What might the writer continue to talk about ( )
C
A.The advantages of faster or slower reading.
B.The reasons why to do faster or slower reading.
C.The cases where to do faster and slower reading.
D.The methods for making use of faster or slower reading.
解析 推理判断题。最后一段最后的部分there’s always going to be a trade-off 说明了阅读总是要在快速和准确之间建立平衡，由此可推知，文章接下来可能阐述在什么情况下要速读以及在什么情况下要慢读，故选C项。

【语篇导读】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了邓亚萍的经历并强调了她努力拼搏的精神。
1.____
an
解析 句意为：邓亚萍1973年出生于河南省郑州市，她为全世界的乒乓球运动员树立了榜样。set an example为固定搭配，意为“树立榜样”。故填an。
2._____
that
解析 句意为：正是由于她对这项运动的痴迷，她才5岁就开始打乒乓球。分析句子结构可知，此处为强调句型“it is/was+被强调的部分+that/who+其他部分”，此处强调主语her addiction to the sport。故填that。
3._____
won
解析 句意为：四年后，她获得了省级青少年锦标赛冠军。根据语境可知，此处描述的是过去发生的事，应用一般过去时。故填won。
4.________
national
解析 句意为：13岁时，她获得了第一个全国冠军，并在随后的几年里在各种比赛中击败了其他对手。分析句子结构可知，空后是名词championship，所以设空处应填形容词，作定语。故填national。
5.___________
competitors
解析 句意见上一题解析。根据语境和空前的other可知，此处表示不止一个竞争对手，应用复数形式。故填competitors。
6._____________
most amazing
解析 句意为：邓亚萍被认为是体育史上最了不起的运动员之一。此处考查固定用法“one of+the+形容词最高级+可数名词复数”，意为“最……的……之一”，所以设空处应填形容词的最高级形式，amazing为多音节形容词，故填most amazing。
7.__________
to achieve
解析 句意为：然而，与其他运动员相比，她需要付出更多努力去实现自己的梦想。make efforts to do sth为固定搭配，表示“努力做某事”。故填to achieve。
8.____________
was refused
解析 句意为：起初，邓亚萍被河南省队拒之门外，只是因为她个子不够高。分析句子结构可知，设空处为主句的谓语；根据语境可判断，refuse和主句主语Deng Yaping之间是被动关系，所以应用被动语态；此处描述的是过去发生的事，应用一般过去时；主句主语Deng Yaping是第三人称单数，谓语动词应用第三人称单数形式。故填was refused。
【方法总结】语法填空中动词题的解题思路
如果语法填空所设的空需要填动词，思路为：&1&.
9._______
but/yet
解析 句意为：她的成功之路充满了许多其他的挑战，但没有一个能阻止她。根据语境可知，Her path to success was filled with many other challenges与none of them stopped her之间是转折关系，所以应填表示转折含义的连词but或yet。
10.________
strength
解析 句意为：她巨大的决心和精神力量激励了成千上万的人。分析句子结构可知，设空处与determination并列作主语，且空前有Her和形容词mental修饰，应用名词。strength表示“意志力；力量”时为不可数名词，故填strength。
