Part Ⅱ 拓展阅读训练
A
Canyoning (溪降运动)
Canyoning allows people to explore the high-energy environment where water meets rock on the coast. Protected by wetsuits and helmets (头盔), people jump from the cliffs (悬崖) and waterfalls and discover caves that would not normally be arrived at.
It was first done in the UK by TYF Adventure (01437 721 611, www.) and several thousand people jump from the cliffs near St Davids each year. A half-day canyoning trip costs £50 per person (£30 for children under 16).
Diving
Diving is not popular with British people. The difficulties of wild waters are great because the waters are cold and not clear enough. But the coasts of Cornwall, Wales and Scotland have some of the best diving places in the world.
The British Sub-Aqua Club (0151 350 6200, www.bsac.com) and the Professional Association of Diving Instructors (0117 300 7234, www.) run courses teaching the important skills.
Surfing
The best surfing places in the UK are on the southwest coast where it is warm, especially in Cornwall. The best time of the year to surf in the UK is late summer and autumn when water temperatures are at their mildest.
The British Surfing Association (0147 986 1256, www.britsurf.co.uk) has a list of famous surfing schools round the country.
Rock climbing
The most popular natural rock climbing places in Britain include the Peak District and the Lake District, while large areas of Scotland are climbers' ideal places. Climbing courses and climbing walls can be found on the website of the British Mountaineering Council (0161 445 6111, www.thebmc.co.uk) which offers a series of short videos that take the new climbers through a step-by-step guide to visit a climbing wall for the first time.
【语篇导读】本文是一篇应用文。文章介绍了四种运动项目以及其相应的组织机构的相关信息。
1.How much should a couple with their child of 15 pay for joining the Canyoning for a day ( )
C
A.£130. B.£160. C.£260. D.£320.
解析 细节理解题。根据Canyoning部分中的A half-day canyoning trip costs £50 per person (£30 for children under 16).可知,半天的旅行费用是一个人50英镑,16岁以下的孩子是30英镑,所以两个成人加一个15岁的孩子一天所需要的费用是(50+50+30)×2=260。故选C项。
2.Which number should you call if you want to go surfing ( )
A
A.0147 986 1256. B.0161 445 6111. C.01437 721 611. D.0151 350 6200.
解析 细节理解题。根据Surfing部分中的The British Surfing Association (0147 986 1256, www.britsurf.co.uk) has a list of famous surfing schools round the country.可知,想要去冲浪,你应该拨打0147 986 1256。故选A项。
3.Which of the following is NOT well accepted by British people ( )

解析 细节理解题。根据Diving部分中的Diving is not popular with British people.(英国人不喜欢潜水)可知,潜水不受英国人的欢迎。故选B项。
[重庆八中2023高一期末] B
The measure of a good night's sleep is usually based on two things—the amount of time spent sleeping and the quality of that sleep. But now researchers say there is a third thing that matters even more than the other two when it comes to keeping good sleep habits, and that is having a regular bedtime.
A study has found that going to sleep and waking up at the same time every day has an important effect on one's health. Adults who stick to a regular bedtime tend to weigh less, have lower blood sugar and a reduced risk of heart disease.
The researchers studied the sleeping habits of 2,000 adults with an average age of 69.They found that people with greater irregularity (无规律的事物) in their sleep patterns tended to go to sleep later at night, feel sleepy and sleep more during the day, and experienced reduced light exposure. These people were also more likely to be stressed. Among the three kinds of sleep problems, sleep regularity was the most strongly associated with health.
Of course, there are many people for whom this may be impossible, such as night-shift workers or those with late-night duty. But for those who don't have mandatory (强制的) reasons to stay up late, they should make an effort to go to bed at the same time every night. Skip the late afternoon coffee. Get off the phone. Try the sleep calculator to figure out the best bedtime.
As Matthew Walker, a scientist, wrote, “The shorter your sleep, the shorter your life.” Surely that's reasonable enough to go to bed on time.
【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。研究表明,除了睡眠时间和睡眠质量外,规律的就寝时间对于人的健康起着很重要的作用。
1.What can we infer from the research ( )
D
A.People feel more stressed when they grow older.
B.The old often have less sleep.
C.Adults enjoy sleeping late.
D.Regular bedtime does good to our health.
解析 推理判断题。根据文章第二段内容可推断,规律的就寝时间对我们的健康有很大好处。故选D项。
2.Which of the following influences health most ( )
B
A.Reduced light exposure. B.Sleep regularity.
C.Sleeping during the day. D.Sleeping late at night.
解析 细节理解题。根据文章第三段最后一句可知,在三种睡眠问题中,睡眠规律与健康的关系最为密切。由此可知,睡眠规律对健康影响最大。故选B项。
3.According to the author, what should those who don't have to stay up late do ( )
D
A.Avoid the late-night duty. B.Skip the late-night coffee.
C.Get off the phone while working. D.Try to sleep at the same time each night.
解析 细节理解题。根据第四段中的But for those who don't have mandatory reasons to stay up late, they should make an effort to go to bed at the same time every night.可知,那些不必熬夜的人应该每晚尽量在同一时间睡觉。故选D项。
4.What's the best title for the text ( )
C
A.The Importance of Sleep B.Ways to Have a Good Sleep
C.Regular Bedtime for Your Health D.The Suitable Time for Sleep
解析 主旨大意题。文章第一段第二句点明主旨,接下来介绍了规律的就寝时间对于养成良好睡眠习惯的重要性以及给人们的健康带来的好处。Regular Bedtime for Your Health (规律的就寝时间有益于你的健康)可作为本文最佳标题,符合主旨。故选C项。
【方法总结】如何确定文章标题
通常情况下,文章标题具有概括性、针对性、醒目性的特点。确定最佳标题的方法:(1)关注重要信息。在阅读文章时,要注意文章中反复出现或强调的信息,寻找与文章主题相关的信息,找出覆盖全文的核心词汇,看选项内容是否切中文章的中心思想,也就是要看选项内容与作者的写作目的是否一致。(2)寻找主题句。了解文章主旨的关键是找到全文的主题句。主题句通常在文章首段,但也可能在文章的末段或者分散在文章的各个段落中。如果每个段落都有主题句,那么把各段主题句的中心思想集中起来,即为全文的主题。(3)把握文章整体,不被细节迷惑。要准确把握文章的中心思想,就要十分留意文章的开头和结尾,抓住文中具有概括性的信息,上下文连贯起来理解全文。很多文章的主题句并不明显,需要我们仔细体会字里行间的意思,了解文章的背景知识、文章结构,推断作者的意图或态度,从整体上把握文章的主旨。

1._______
wisely
解析 句意为:我们高中生确实有一些成长的烦恼,但我们可以正确而明智地摆脱它们。设空处修饰动词短语get rid of,应用副词作状语。故填wisely。
2.____
are
解析 句意为:首先,我们中的一些人对自己的外表感到沮丧。根据句意可知,句子陈述的是客观事实,应用一般现在时,句子主语为some of us,指“我们中的一些人”,为复数。故填are。
3._____________
be understood
解析 句意为:其次,老师、家长和同学们有时无法正确理解我们。根据语境和空后的by our teachers, parents and classmates可知,此处表示被动关系,故句子应用被动语态, cannot为情态动词的否定形式,后跟动词原形。故填be understood。
4.______
trying
解析 句意为:面对这一点,我们可以找个合适的时间与他们进行一次敞开心扉的谈话,尽力消除误解。分析句子成分可知,句中已有谓语动词find,且与设空处之间无连词连接,故设空处应用非谓语动词形式,句子主语we与try之间为逻辑上的主动关系,故用现在分词作状语。故填trying。
5._________
who/that
解析 句意为:我们中的一些人很少有朋友愿意倾听我们内心深处的感受和想法。根据句意并分析句子结构可知,设空处引导限制性定语从句,先行词为friends,指人,且关系词在从句中作主语。故填who/that。
6.________
stressed
解析 句意为:第三,我们可能落后于他人,这让我们感到焦虑。分析句子成分可知,此处为“make+宾语+宾补”结构,补充说明宾语us的感受,应用形容词作宾补。stress的形容词stressed意为“焦虑的”,修饰人;stressful意为“充满压力的”,形容物。故填stressed。
7._____________
determination
解析 句意为:那么,我们可以鼓励自己高效地工作,充满决心。分析句子成分可知,设空处作介词of的宾语,应用名词,determine对应的名词为determination,意为“决心”,为不可数名词。故填determination。
8._______
so/and

9.___
In
解析 句意为:在我看来,只要我们有一些零花钱,就足够了。in one's view为固定搭配,意为“在某人看来”。句首单词首字母应大写,故填In。
10._____
jobs
解析 句意为:然后,我们可以通过做一些兼职工作来学会独立,挣些额外的钱。根据句中的some可知,设空处应用名词的复数形式, job意为“工作”时,为可数名词。故填jobs。

[河北石家庄二中2023高一期中] Is looking fashionable more important than being comfortable Many people seem to think so, judging by the things they wear. But fashion is not everything. It is more important to be a healthy and good person.
People go to great lengths to be fashionable. Some people think they have to have a certain body type, so they go on extreme, unhealthy diets in order to change their bodies. In addition, many women wear uncomfortable fashions, such as high-heeled shoes that cause pain to their feet, and tight body shapers that limit blood flow. Men and women alike spend time and money on products that change their natural hair colour or hairstyle. Some people even spend several hours a day in front of a mirror. Is fashion so important that people spend so much time and effort changing what they look like
If the purpose of fashion is to make a person feel good, it does not make sense that he or she would go through so much discomfort to be fashionable. Fashion should not come first. People should put their health and positive image in the first place. What people wear does not say anything about their personalities. Instead of spending hours choosing clothes, perhaps you should call your friends and do something together, such as playing soccer or badminton. Instead of going on strict diets and forcing yourself to stay hungry, why not eat some healthy foods and then exercise By doing these things, you can keep a healthy lifestyle and truly grow as a person.

[湖北新高考联考协作体2022高二期末] I learnt an important lesson from one of my patients. When I first met Linda, she was only six years old, beautiful and energetic. She had an accident when she fell into the fire on a camping trip, leaving 30% of her skin surface damaged.
Linda would require several weeks in the hospital and three additional surgeries. Between each operation, nurses daily took her for disinfection (消毒).
Overnight, the dressings (敷料) would stick to the wound and have to be pulled away. Each step was more painful for Linda than the previous one. For an adult, the agonizing (折磨人的) pain and daily fear prove overwhelming. For a child, it has an impact forever. Linda's life would never be the same.
I took care of Linda for the next several years, treating her scars and freeing areas of tightness in her face and neck. Over that time, her scars faded and her appearance improved significantly. Eventually, her family moved away and I lost track of her.
Years later, at a national meeting, I ran into a plastic surgeon I knew who told me he had met a former patient of mine. It was Linda. She was doing extremely well and she was his colleague and not his patient. Linda had become a nurse and worked with him in a burn unit.
She was the nurse the patients most often asked to clean their wounds and change their dressings. Her compassion (同情心) and her courage in returning to a burn unit inspired their confidence and reduced their fears. Linda turned her pain into compassion. She devoted every day of her life towards helping others overcome their pain.
Physicians can be frustrated and overwhelmed when we don't have enough time in a day to complete everything we need to do. Linda taught me the importance of slowing down. Among the best gifts we, as physicians, can give our patients, whether in the exam room or at the bedside in the hospital, is to take the time to show the compassion we feel.

Part Ⅱ 拓展阅读训练
A
Whenever we turn on the TV or radio, read the newspapers, or surf the Internet, we'll be surrounded by the word “diet” everywhere. We have so easily been attracted by the promise of diet products that we have stopped thinking about what diet products are doing to us. We are paying for products that harm us psychologically and physically.
It's obvious that diet products weaken us psychologically. They allow us to jump over the thinking stage that our weight problems lie not in actually losing the weight, but in controlling the consumption of fat. All we have to do is swallow or recognize the word “diet” on food labels.
What's more, diet products have greater psychological effects. Every time we have a zero-calorie drink, we are telling ourselves that we don't have to work to get results. Diet products make people believe that gain comes without pain, and that life can be without resistance and struggles.
As a matter of fact, the danger that diet products bring not only lies in the psychological effects they have on us, but also in the physical harm they cause. Diet foods and diet pills contain zero calories only because the diet industry has created chemicals to produce these wonder products. And they can indirectly harm our bodies because taking them instead of healthy foods means we are stopping our bodies having basic nutrients. Diet products may not be nutritional, and the chemicals that go into diet products are potentially dangerous.
Losing weight lies in the power of minds, not in the power of chemicals. Think twice before buying diet products. Once we realize this, we will be much better able to resist diet products, and therefore, prevent the psychological and physical harm that comes from using them.
【语篇导读】本文主要论述了减肥产品对人的影响,包括对人的心理影响和身体上的伤害。
1.What can be inferred from the first paragraph ( )
C
A.Diet products are cheap and healthy. B.People enjoy paying for diet products.
C.Diet products are misleading people. D.People are surrounded by “diet”.
解析 推理判断题。根据第一段中的We have so easily been attracted by the promise of diet products that we have stopped thinking about what diet products are doing to us.We are paying for products that harm us psychologically and physically.可知,人们容易被减肥产品所承诺的好处吸引,而忽略其对人产生的不良影响。故选C项。
2.What does “gain comes without pain” in Paragraph 3 mean ( )
A
A.Losing weight is effortless. B.It costs a lot to lose weight.
C.Diet products are free of fat. D.Diet products cause no pain.
解析 词义猜测题。根据画线部分所在句的前一句可知,减肥产品让人们认为不用费力就能得到想要的结果,再根据life can be without resistance and struggles可知,gain comes without pain的意思是“减肥毫不费力”。故选A项。
3.What are the psychological effects of diet products?( )
C
A.People would hesitate before they enjoy diet foods.
B.People would pay more attention to their daily diet.
C.People would care about results instead of efforts.
D.People would try out varieties of diet products.
解析 细节理解题。第三段主要讲减肥产品对人们心理上的影响。根据第三段中的Diet products make people believe that gain comes without pain, and that life can be without resistance and struggles.可知,减肥产品产生的心理效应是使人们认为不必坚持和努力就能得到想要的结果,也就是让人们更关心结果而不是努力。故选C项。
4.Why would diet products indirectly harm people physically ( )
D
A.They are over-consumed. B.They lack chemicals.
C.They provide too much fat. D.They lack basic nutrients.
解析 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的And they can indirectly harm our bodies because taking them instead of healthy foods means we are stopping our bodies having basic nutrients.可知,减肥产品之所以会间接伤害我们的身体,是因为它们不能提供人体所需要的基本营养物。故选D项。
长难句分析
句意:并且它们会间接伤害我们的身体,因为不吃健康食品而是食用它们意味着我们使我们的身体不能摄入基本的营养物。

[江苏常州2022高一期中] B
Mirrors always tell the truth. When the evil Queen asked her mirror, “Who's the fairest of them all ” she did not like the answer: “Snow White is the fairest of them all.” In the fairy tale, the Queen tried to kill Snow White to keep herself the fairest. In modern times, she would have just chosen some plastic surgery.
The plastic surgery industry has been developing rapidly in the past ten years as more people look in the mirror and try to change the “truth” of their reflection. A recent study shows that nearly 60% of the college students surveyed were anxious about their appearance, and that about a quarter of them would consider receiving plastic surgery to look more physically attractive.
The reasons for which these young people are concerned about their looks have partly to do with necessity and partly to do with vanity (虚荣心).Studies have shown that, in today's competitive job market, “physically attractive” people are more likely to be offered an interview and to land a job than those who have the same abilities but look ordinary.
Psychologists call this the “halo effect”, a type of cognitive bias (认知偏差) in which our good impression of a person in one area naturally leads to positive thoughts about this person in other areas.
There is also the effect that social media has on how people judge their appearance and understand real beauty. In the virtual world, “ideal” faces have big eyes, thin high noses and pointed chins. This easily misleads young people into believing that they are not pretty enough, or are even ugly, and that they should turn to “outside help” for complete makeover. However, plastic surgery is just a fashion trend, with different features going in and out of style.
As the old saying goes, inner beauty is more important than outer beauty. As long as you are a good person, your goodness will shine through. The evil Queen was beautiful on the outside, but inside, she was very ugly. The mirror did not lie.
【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。作者通过描述整形外科行业的快速发展,介绍了外表对人的影响,作者在文章最后告诉读者:不应过度关注外表,内在美才是真正的美,要做一个善良的人。
1.What does the underlined word “truth” in Paragraph 2 refer to ( )
A
A.They don't look attractive. B.Their looks have changed.
C.They have only inner beauty. D.They are fooled by the media.
解析 词义猜测题。根据画线词下文的A recent study shows that nearly 60% of the college students surveyed were anxious about their appearance和would consider receiving plastic surgery to look more physically attractive可知,许多大学生们对自己的外表不满意,还有一些大学生考虑通过整形手术让自己看起来更有吸引力;因此画线词所在句应表示,在过去的十年里,越来越多人考虑通过整形手术来改变他们在镜子中的影像的“真相”。由此推知,画线词“truth”是指他们看起来并不那么具有吸引力这一事实。故选A项。
2.Which of the following is an example of the “halo effect” ( )
D
A.The Queen felt angry because she was not the fairest of all.
B.Mary is not confident because she doesn't have an “ideal” face.

[广东东莞五校2023高一期中联考] Rainforests provide much of the world's oxygen. People have been trying to protect them for years. But another type of forest, the cloud forest, is just as important to humans.
These forests are at the top of mountains, generally near the equator (赤道).These wet, wooded mountaintops are mainly in Africa and Central and South America. They are called “cloud forests” because their height allows of the formation of clouds among the trees. The trees in these forests pull water from the clouds. The water gathers on the leaves and falls into small rivers below, which flow into towns at the bottom of the mountain. The yearly rainfall in these areas is about 180 centimetres. Cloud forests can pull in up to 60 percent of that. The water is important to the plants and the people in the area. It helps them survive.
Cloud forests are also home to countless species of plants that can't be found anywhere else. One small cloud forest has as many types of plants as there are in all of Europe. In fact, there are so many species that scientists haven't made a complete list of them yet.
建议用时:57分钟
These forests are being destroyed at an increasing speed. Trees are being cut down, and roads are being built in their place. Some people have a goal to get government money to protect the forests. But they have had little success so far. Another way is to take the place of the destroyed plants with new ones. That, too, has been difficult because the plants are so special. There's plenty of work to be done, but saving the cloud forests is still possible with creative solutions.
