Period Ⅰ Starting out & Understanding ideas
Part Ⅱ 拓展阅读训练
[黑龙江大庆中学2022高一期末] A
I remember that when I was a little girl, my dad would ask me to hold the hammer when he was repairing something, so we would have time for a conversation with each other. I never saw my dad drinking or taking a night out. All he did after work was taking care of his family.
I grew up and left home for college and since then, my dad had been calling me every Sunday morning. And when I bought a house several years later, my dad painted it by himself in the fierce summer heat. All he asked was to talk to him, but I was too busy in those days.
Four years ago, my dad visited me. He spent many hours putting together a swing（秋千） set for my daughter. He asked me to have a talk with him, but I had to prepare for a trip that weekend.
One Sunday morning we had a telephone talk as usual. I noticed that my dad had forgotten some things that we discussed lately. I was in a hurry, so our conversation was short. Several hours later that day I received a call. My father was in hospital. Immediately I bought a plane ticket and on my way I was thinking about all the occasions I missed to have a talk with my dad. By the time I arrived at the hospital, my father had passed away. Now it was he who did not have time for a conversation with me. I realised how little I knew about my dad, his deepest thoughts and his dreams.
After his death I learnt much more about him and even more about myself. All he ever wanted was my time. And now he has all my attention every single day.
【语篇导读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者在小时候经常和爸爸聊天，但长大后陪爸爸聊天的次数越来越少了，爸爸的突然离世让作者再也没有机会与爸爸聊天了，作者还发现自己对爸爸内心的想法知之甚少，对此作者非常后悔。

B
A.She phoned her father every Sunday morning.
B.She received a call from her father every Sunday morning.
C.Her father bought her a house.

解析 细节理解题。根据第二段中的I grew up and left home for college and since then, my dad had been calling me every Sunday morning.可知，作者长大后离家上大学，从那以后，爸爸每个周日早上都给作者打电话。由此可知，上大学时，作者每周日早上都会接到爸爸的电话，故选B项。
3.Why did the author fail to have a talk with her father four years ago ( )
C
A.Her father was busy putting up a swing for her daughter.
B.She had got tired of talking with him.

D
A.The author found an excuse to forgive herself.
B.The author and her father were both busy.

[天津一中2022高一期中] B
As birth order is clearly one of the many factors that affect development, we should pay much attention to it. Big brothers and sisters usually develop leadership early in life, mainly because of the responsibilities for younger children given to them by their parents. The danger, experts on family and child psychology report, is that if the older child takes that role to an extreme, he or she can become an overbearing adult.
Studies of nearly 300 people have found that a person's first child is usually the most strongly motivated towards achievement. This is mainly the result of parental expectations. Research also suggests that firstborn children generally become more conservative than other children because they receive most of the parental orders and rules. Used to caring for others, they are more likely to move towards such leadership professions as teaching and politics. Less social and flexible because they become accustomed in the very early years to acting alone, they may have difficulty making close friends.
By contrast, the researchers say later children are more likely to be more relaxed and sociable than the eldest child because their parents are more relaxed. However, later children are often less ambitious and may be uncomfortable making decisions for others, and will seek work that fits their needs. This may help explain why younger children tend to favour the creative fields such as music, art, and writing. Later children may be good sellers because persuasion may have been the only tool they had to deal with older children. Younger children tend to remain forever “the baby” enjoyable to be around, but at times too dependent on others.
【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了家庭中孩子的出生顺序会对他们的性格以及未来发展产生影响，并对不同顺序出生的孩子所具有的特点和未来可能从事的职业进行了详细说明。
1.What does the underlined word “overbearing” in the first paragraph mean ( )
A
A.Trying to make other people obey without regard for their ideas or feelings.
B.Being unable to express what one really feels or to do what one really wants.
C.Favouring the established order of society and not liking change.
D.Changing easily to adapt to new needs, conditions or ideas.
解析 词义猜测题。根据第一段中的Big brothers and sisters usually develop leadership early in life, mainly because of the responsibilities for younger children given to them by their parents.可知，哥哥和姐姐通常在早期生活中就培养了领导能力，主要是因为父母赋予他们对年幼子女的责任；再根据画线词前的内容并结合选项可知，如果年龄较大的孩子将“领导”这一角色发挥到极致，他们就可能会成为一个“不顾他人的想法和感受，试图让他人服从”的人。故选A项。
【方法总结】利用构词法猜测词义
许多单词都是由词根、词缀构成的，如果我们掌握一些常见词根、词缀的基本含义，就可以根据构词法来猜测陌生单词的含义。如本题中的overbearing，它包含一个前缀over-，意为“过多；过头；过分”，由此可以猜测这个单词表示做某事过头的含义。根据这一线索并结合语境和选项，找出哪个选项包含这个含义，将其代入原语境，检查答案是否合理。结合上述条件可判断A项“一味让他人遵守而不顾其看法或感受”，即“控制过头”，与overbearing的本意“专横的”相符。
2.What might a younger child want to be according to the passage ( )
C
A.A librarian. B.A doctor. C.A writer. D.A teacher.
解析 推理判断题。根据第三段中的This may help explain why younger children tend to favour the creative fields such as music, art, and writing.可推知，年龄较小的孩子可能想要成为一位作家。故选C项。
3.Why may later children become good sellers ( )
B
A.They feel uneasy when making decisions for other people.
B.They are very good at persuading others.
C.They have great ambition to develop leadership.
D.They are more relaxed and sociable.
解析 细节理解题。根据第三段中的Later children may be good sellers because persuasion may have been the only tool they had to deal with older children.可知，后出生的孩子可能会成为很好的卖家，因为他们非常善于说服别人。故选B项。
4.What’s the best title for this passage ( )
D
A.Which Is Better: Being the Eldest or the Youngest
B.Birth Order and Marriage
C.The Relation Between Birth Order and Job Success
D.Effects of Birth Order on One’s Personality
解析 主旨大意题。第一段第一句As birth order is clearly one of the many factors that affect development, we should pay much attention to it.提出文章主题，文章主要说明了家庭中孩子的出生顺序会对他们的性格以及未来发展产生影响，并对不同顺序出生的孩子所具有的特点和未来可能从事的职业进行了详细说明。由此可知，D项“出生顺序对一个人性格的影响”最适合作为文章标题。故选D项。

[陕西汉中2023高一期末]Raising teenagers can be both difficult and rewarding（值得做的）. They are becoming young adults. Almost all teenagers will have some behavioural outbursts （爆发）with their families during this period of life. 1. . Here are some ideas that may create positive experiences for teens and parents.
Have meals together. Mealtime is when we check in with each other. 2. . Eating meals together offers a way for parents and kids to share what is on their minds. It brings families closer by creating trust and understanding to help guide children through the challenges of the teen years.
3. . As teens develop their own sense of independence, it gets harder to find time to talk. Talk in the car together, when doing the dishes together, or any time you have a chance. Remember that no matter how big their problems seem, what most teens want is love and support.
Help them connect with their families and communities. During these years, help teens learn that their words and actions matter. 4. . Others may find the connection through spiritual communities or from having more responsibilities at home. Connecting with families and communities also helps keep teens safe from riskier activity.

Period Ⅱ Using language—Presenting ideas
Part Ⅱ 拓展阅读训练
[四川树德中学2023高一月考] A
“Can we eat this one, Dad ” my four-year-old daughter, Alicia, asks. We’re on one of our Thursday adventures, searching the nearby woods for eatable mushrooms. She’s pointing at a bright-red cap covered with white dots. I pull out my handy mushroom-identification app, which notes that Amanita muscaria, while eatable if prepared properly, is also a known hallucinogen （致幻剂）. I have a firm “tell them the truth and be as precise as possible” philosophy and explain what the app says, and that I don’t think our Thursday adventures are ready to get quite that adventurous yet.
Watching your kids learn new skills is extraordinarily rewarding, but I’ve experienced more personal growth than I have at any other point in my life.
Last year, after a winter of practising skiing on the green tracks for beginners each week, Alicia was french-frying（when your skis are positioned parellel to each other）her way down blues and even attempted her first black. That winter also witnessed me getting out on the mountain more times than in the 15 years combined and I’ve got myself a partner for life.
It’s not all easy—but sometimes that’s the point. Alicia practises the violin every day, and although she enjoys it, even 15 minutes of practice can upset her. The trick, I’ve found, is to let her watch me try to get better at something, too. I start taking piano lessons at 41 years old with the idea that if she sees me struggling as I practise and then improve, she'll understand that things don’t come easy, even for grown-ups. I know there’s going to be a time when I’ll end up on the sidelines cheering her on as she finds her own passions. I’m okay with this, and I’m hoping that by then she’ll carry the joy of practice and knowledge through life.

[重庆育才中学2023高一期中] B
Teachers and parents should help children pay more attention to the mistakes they make so they can better learn from them, according to new research.
In the study led by researchers at Michigan State University, 123 children whose average age was 7 were assessed on whether they had a growth mindset （believing people can work harder to get smarter）, or a fixed mindset （believing intelligence is unable to be changed）.The researchers then asked the children to complete a fast-moving accuracy task on a computer while their brain activity was recorded.
Based on the data they collected, the researchers concluded that children with growth mindsets were much more likely to have a more active brain response after making a mistake. In addition, they were more likely to improve their performance by paying closer attention to the task after making a mistake. While previous research has shown that people with a fixed mindset didn’t want to acknowledge they had made a mistake, this study found that children with fixed mindsets were able to bounce back after making mistakes, but only if they gave full attention to the mistakes. “The main implication（含意）here is that we should pay more attention to our mistakes and use them as opportunities to learn,” said study author Hans Schroder.
For parents and teachers, the lessons are clear. They should focus on using mistakes to work together and learn. Many teachers and parents avoid addressing children's mistakes, telling them “It’s OK. You’ll get it next time.” without giving them the opportunity to figure out what went wrong. Schroder says, “Instead, it’s better to reassure（使安心）children that mistakes happen, so try to pay attention and work to figure out where and how they made the mistakes.”
【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。一项新研究发现，具有成长型思维模式的孩子更关注自己的错误，并能更有效地改正错误。因此研究者建议，父母和老师应该帮助孩子更多地关注他们所犯的错误而不是回避或掩盖错误，这样孩子们才能更好地从中学习。
1.How was the data collected during the research ( )
B
A.By counting the number of children’s mistakes. B.By recording children’s brain activity.
C.By asking children fast-moving questions. D.By testing children’s intelligence.
解析 细节理解题。根据第二段中的The researchers then asked the children to complete a fast-moving accuracy task on a computer while their brain activity was recorded.可知，这项研究的数据收集是通过记录孩子们的大脑活动来完成的。故选B项。
2.Who most probably belongs to the growth mindset group ( )
A
A.A child who manages to correct every mistake by heart.
B.A child who believes her mistakes are made by chance.
C.A child who keeps an idea that he has a gift for studying.
D.A child who thinks she can perform well without any effort.
解析 推理判断题。根据第三段中的Based on the data they collected, the researchers concluded that children with growth mindsets… were more likely to improve their performance by paying closer attention to the task after making a mistake.可知，拥有成长型思维模式的孩子会在犯错误之后更加关注自己的任务，以提升自己的表现。由此可推测A项提到的用心改正自己的每一个错误符合具有成长型思维模式的孩子的特点。故选A项。
3.How is Paragraph 3 developed ( )
C
A.By giving examples. B.By listing facts.
C.By making a comparison. D.By giving explanations.
解析 推理判断题。根据第三段中的Based on the data they collected, the researchers concluded that children with growth mindsets were much more likely to have a more active brain response after making a mistake.和this study found that children with fixed mindsets were able to bounce back after making mistakes, but only if they gave full attention to the mistakes可知，第三段分别说明了具有成长型思维模式的孩子和具有固定思维模式的孩子在犯错后不同的反应，故此处是用了对比的手法。故选C项。
4.What should parents do with their child’s mistakes according to Schroder ( )
B
A.Avoid talking about their child's mistakes.
B.Discuss the mistakes with their child patiently.
C.Ignore the mistakes and believe he’ll do better.
D.Compare their child with others and blame him.
解析 细节理解题。根据最后一段中的Schroder says, “Instead, it’s better to reassure children that mistakes happen, so try to pay attention and work to figure out where and how they made the mistakes.”可知，当孩子犯错时，父母应该和孩子一起耐心地分析错误，故选B项。

The year 2020 marked the 20th anniversary of the Millennium Seed Bank（MSB）.
On Nov 20, 2000, Prince Charles opened the huge seed bank in Sussex, the UK, which has now collected and stored 2.4 billion seeds, making it the largest in the world.
“The seed bank has never played such an important role because of the planet's coming biodiversity crisis（生物多样性危机）with two-fifths of the world’s plants at the risk of disappearing,” said Kew Gardens, which operates the project.
Well, how does the seed bank work Scientists from all over the world collect seeds of endangered and useful wild species, put them in paper bags to prevent them from getting mouldy（发霉的）, and send them to the seed bank. Once the seeds arrive at the MSB, they're dried and kept in a room with 15 percent humidity（湿度）. Next, they're cleaned by different tools and separated from debris（碎片）. After that, X-rays are used to ensure that the seeds are undamaged and that no insects are hidden inside. The seeds are then frozen, stored in airtight containers and placed in huge freezers at -20℃ for long-term storage. “The low temperature allows the seeds to be kept for tens of years and reawakened when required,” said Michael Way, a scientist at the MSB.
建议用时：54分钟
The MSB is not the only seed bank. There’re over 1,000 seed banks all over the world. The Svalbard Global Seed Vault opened in Feb 2008, and now holds more than 1 million seeds. It lies deep in a frozen Arctic mountain in Longyearbyen, Norway. The special construction makes sure that it remains complete in case of any natural disaster. China also has its own Noah’s ark, which is one of the only two biological germ plasm（种质）banks built based on international standards. As a huge project, it includes a seed bank, a DNA bank, a microbial （微生物的）bank and an animal germ plasm bank.
As the Earth is facing huge problems like climate change, these seed banks are surely important to protect the future of the world’s food supply.

[安徽芜湖一中2023高一期末] 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
“Breakfast!” my mum called downstairs.
“Today, we will go zip-lining （高空滑索）!” my dad followed in a sing-song tone.
I put on my clothes and walked down the stairs slowly.
“Hurry up！We don’t want to be late!” my mum urged.
I looked out of the window. The sun was shining. When I entered the dining room, I was met with the nice smell of pancakes. All these made me feel a little bit better.
“What a beautiful day！” I told myself. “I can do it.”
As breakfast went on, I struggled with the increasing fear. It was the first time for me to try zip-lining. To make things worse, I was scared of going to high places. I had tried to get over the unreasonable fear many many times since it kept me away from having fun with my friends. And I was particularly fed up with making excuses to cover up my fear of height.
After breakfast, we set out in my dad’s car. Along the way, the sun grew hotter, and the leather on the seats started to burn my legs while my parents were talking about the sport enthusiastically. But I was still absorbed in my fear. Eventually, we pulled up to a big park where our instructor was waiting for us.
“Good morning!” he said cheerfully. “So, have you all tried this sport before ”
We shook our heads. I got more nervous while the instructor went over the safety instructions and warned us of the possible dangers of the sport.
“All right, it is time to hit the trail（出发）!” said the instructor after we fastened our safety belts. For a moment, I congratulated myself on that he did not note my fear.
“It is a really good beginning,” I told myself. “How happy I would be if I could make it.”
注意：续写词数应为150左右。
When we were ready, my mum and dad were asked to go first.

When we were ready, my mum and dad were asked to go first. The moment they set out, they yelled and screamed. Not for long, they became two little black dots and their laughter kept ringing in the air. It was obvious that the excitement took hold of my parents. But I stood there, unable to move. I could feel my legs shaking slightly and my heart beating fast. But I tried very hard to appear calm and strong.
Finally, my turn came. Without warning, the instructor gave me a gentle push. I closed my eyes and held the safety belt tightly. As I slid faster and faster along the wire, I could feel the wind blowing on my face. A few minutes later, I heard my parents’ faint cheers. I opened my eyes and looked down. Suddenly, my fear gave way to excitement. The flowers below were so beautiful that I forgot my fear. Finally, I have overcome my fear of height, thanks to the instructor’s gentle push.
