A Lesson Plan from Life Planning Education：A Youth Development Program
Purpose：To learn about body language and how to use body language
Materials(材料)：cards； container
Time：25－35 minutes
Planning Notes：
Write the words below on cards：
angry，disappointed，shy，afraid，sad，happy，nervous，excited，bored
Place the cards in the container so volunteers can draw them out one at a time.
Steps：
First make sure that all volunteers know what body language means(expressing feelings through body movement and facial expressions).Go over the following instructions：
I’ll need at least 9 volunteers to play a game similar to charades(猜词游戏).
The first volunteer will draw a card with a feeling written on it and act out the feeling without using words.
The rest of the group will guess what feeling is being communicated.Once someone correctly guesses the feeling，the next person in line will draw a card and act out what is written on it，again without words.
The game will continue until there are no more cards or until time is up.
At last，end the activity using the discussion points below：
Can you give examples of when someone’s body language communicated a different message from what he/she actually said
Sometimes one person is offended(冒犯) by another’s body language.How can you work to keep that from happening？Answers may include: be honest and direct； match your non-verbal messages to your verbal ones；be aware of cultural attitudes toward different kinds of body language.
1．To whom is the text most likely written

When I was five or six years old，I remember watching TV and seeing other children suffer in other parts of the world. I would say to myself，“When I grow up，when I can get rich，I will save kids all over the world.”
At 17，I started my career here in America，and by the age of 18，I started my first charity organisation. I went on to team up with other organisations in the following years，and met，helped，and even lost some of the most beautiful souls，from six-year-old Jasmina Anema who passed away in 2010 from leukemia(白血病)，whose story inspired thousands to volunteer as donors，to my grandmother，who lost her battle with cancer in 2012，which is the very reason and the driving force behind the Clara Lionel Foundation(CLF). We’re all human. And we all just want a chance: a chance at life，a chance in education，a chance at a future，really. And at CLF，our mission is to impact as many lives as possible，but it starts with just one.
People make it seem too hard to do charity work. The truth is，you don’t have to be rich to help others. You don’t need to be famous. You don’t even have to be college-educated. But it starts with your neighbour，the person right next to you，the person sitting next to you in class，the kid down the block in your neighbourhood. You just do whatever you can to help in any way that you can. And today，I want to challenge each of you to make a commitment to help one person，one organisation，one situation that touches your heart. My grandmother always used to say，“If you’ve got a dollar，there’s plenty to share.”
4．What did the author want to do at a young age
A．Watch TV. B．Grow up quickly.
C．Become wealthy. D．Help other children.
5．What directly caused the author to create and develop the CLF
A．A six-year-old kid’s request.
B．Her grandmother’s death of cancer.
C．Many volunteers’ inspiration.
D．Other organisations’ encouragement.
6．What does the underlined word “one” in Paragraph 2 refer to
A．A chance. B．A task.
C．A life. D．An organisation.
7．What does the author suggest people do in the last paragraph
A．Do little things to help those around them.
B．Work hard to get a college education.
C．Challenge their friends to offer help.
D．Do charity work whatever you are.

(2022年高考全国甲卷)Goffin’s cockatoos，a kind of small parrot native to Australasia，have been shown to have similar shape-recognition abilities to a human two-year-old. Though not known to use tools in the wild，the birds have proved skilful at tool use while kept in the cage. In a recent experiment，cockatoos were presented with a box with a nut inside it. The clear front of the box had a “keyhole” in a geometric shape，and the birds were given five differently shaped “keys” to choose from. Inserting the correct “key” would let out the nut.
In humans，babies can put a round shape in a round hole from around one year of age，but it will be another year before they are able to do the same with less symmetrical(对称的) shapes. This ability to recognize that a shape will need to be turned in a specific direction before it will fit is called an “allocentric frame of reference”. In the experiment，Goffin’s cockatoos were able to select the right tool for the job，in most cases，by visual recognition alone. Where trial-and-error was used，the cockatoos did better than monkeys in similar tests. This indicates that Goffin’s cockatoos do indeed possess an allocentric frame of reference when moving objects in space，similar to two-year-old babies.
The next step，according to the researchers，is to try and work out whether the cockatoos rely entirely on visual clues(线索)，or also use a sense of touch in making their shape selections.
8．How did the cockatoos get the nut from the box in the experiment
A．By following instructions. B．By using a tool.
C．By turning the box around. D．By removing the lid.
9．Which task can human one-year-olds most likely complete according to the text
A．Using a key to unlock a door.
B．Telling parrots from other birds.
C．Putting a ball into a round hole.
D．Grouping toys of different shapes.
10．What does the follow-up test aim to find out about the cockatoos
A．How far they are able to see.
B．How they track moving objects.
C．Whether they are smarter than monkeys.
D．Whether they use a sense of touch in the test.
11．Which can be a suitable title for the text
A．Cockatoos: Quick Error Checkers
B．Cockatoos: Independent Learners
C．Cockatoos: Clever Signal-Readers
D．Cockatoos: Skilful Shape-Sorters

Nonverbal Communication
(2023山东淄博市高二联考)When you are in another country，it is important to know its language，but it is equally important to know how to communicate nonverbally(不用言语地). Before saying anything，people communicate nonverbally by making gestures. According to an investigation，only 30 to 35 percent of our communication is verbal. When people don’t know the language，the most common way to communicate is through gestures. However，many gestures have different meanings，or no meaning at all，in different parts of the world.
In the United States，for example，nodding your head up and down means “Yes”. In some parts of Greece and Turkey，however，this motion can mean “No”. In Southeast Asia，nodding your head is a polite way of saying “I’ve heard you. ”
In ancient Rome，when the emperor wanted to spare someone’s life，he would put his thumb up. Today in the United States，when someone puts his/her thumb up，it means “Everything is all right. ” However，in Greece，the gesture is insulting(侮辱的) and should not be used there.
In the United States，raising your closed hands above your head means “I’m the champion” or “I’m the winner”. It is the sign that prizefighters make when they win a fight. When a leading Russian statesman(政治家) made this gesture after a White House meeting，Americans misunderstood and thought he meant he was a winner. In Russia，however，it is a sign of friendship.
There are other nonverbal signals that people should be aware of when they go to another country，such as the distance to maintain between speakers. Americans stand closer to each other than English people. English people don’t like touching somebody or being touched. Now in America，touch is important. For example，friends touch each other on the arm. They often put an arm around a friend when they say “Hello” or “Goodbye”.
12．Why do we need to learn nonverbal communication
A．Most people speak different languages.
B．Much of our communication is nonverbal on many occasions.
C．People usually make gestures before saying anything.
D．It’s easy to learn how to express oneself through gestures.
13．If a native in Singapore nods his head up and down when you talk to him，his motion means “________”．
A．yes B．no
C．that’s all right D．I’ve heard you
14．When the Russian leader put up his clasped hand after the meeting at the White House ________．
A．he meant Russia was the winner
B．he was insulting America
C．he made a show of friendship to America
D．he in fact meant nothing at all
15．When you are talking to English people you should remember ________．
A．not to touch them B．to stand close to them
C．to put an arm around them D．not to show your feelings
How to Start a Conversation with Strangers
Introduce Yourself
It’s not necessary to be clever when you introduce yourself. Simply focus on being genuine and sincere. When you approach the other person to start the conversation，give him a warm smile and clearly state your name.__16__ Remember to speak at a regular pace，taking care not to speak too quickly or slowly，so that the other person will have no difficulty understanding you.
Begin the Conversation
__17__ A comment about the weather or a current event may be most appropriate. Avoid beginning the conversation with anything too personal，as this may make the other person feel uncomfortable to continue the conversation. After you make your opening comments，give the person enough time to respond. Show a sincere interest in the thoughts he or she expresses about the subject.
Continue the Conversation
If you are building a rapport(融洽关系)，feel free to move on to a bit more personal topics to continue the conversation. __18__ Open-ended questions — those that can’t be answered by a simple “yes” or “no” — help to keep a conversation going.
__19__
When you have run out of things to say or need to move on to do something else，prepare your exit strategy. You may say that you need to use the bathroom or catch up with someone else. Let the other person know how much you enjoyed talking to her.__20__
A．End the Conversation
B．Bring up a general topic to begin the conversation.
C．This will help keep the conversation flowing freely.
D．If appropriate，make plans to talk again at a later date.
E．Your conversational partner will feel valued and appreciated.
F．Explain who you are and why you want to have the conversation.
G．You may want to ask about his favourite hobby，his career，his classes or upcoming events.

第二节(满分25分)
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。
(2022年新高考全国I卷)It was the day of the big cross-country run. Students from seven different primary schools in and around the small town were warming up and walking the route(路线) through thick evergreen forest.
I looked around and finally spotted David，who was standing by himself off to the side by a fence. He was small for ten years old. His usual big toothy smile was absent today. I walked over and asked him why he wasn’t with the other children. He hesitated and then said he had decided not to run.
What was wrong He had worked so hard for this event!
I quickly searched the crowd for the school’s coach and asked him what had happened. “I was afraid that kids from other schools would laugh at him，” he explained uncomfortably. “I gave him the choice to run or not，and let him decide.”
I bit back my frustration(懊恼). I knew the coach meant well—he thought he was doing the right thing. After making sure that David could run if he wanted，I turned to find him coming towards me，his small body rocking from side to side as he swung his feet forward.
David had a brain disease which prevented him from walking or running like other children，but at school his classmates thought of him as a regular kid. He always participated to the best of his ability in whatever they were doing. That was why none of the children thought it unusual that David had decided to join the cross-country team. It just took him longer—that’s all. David had not missed a single practice，and although he always finished his run long after the other children，he did always finish. As a special education teacher at the school，I was familiar with the challenges David faced and was proud of his strong determination.
注意：
1．续写词数应为150左右；
2．请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
We sat down next to each other，but David wouldn’t look at me. ________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________
I watched as David moved up to the starting line with the other runners. __________________ _______________________________________________________________________________

When I was five or six years old，I remember watching TV and seeing other children suffer in other parts of the world. I would say to myself，“When I grow up，when I can get rich，I will save kids all over the world.”
At 17，I started my career here in America，and by the age of 18，I started my first charity organisation. I went on to team up with other organisations in the following years，and met，helped，and even lost some of the most beautiful souls，from six-year-old Jasmina Anema who passed away in 2010 from leukemia(白血病)，whose story inspired thousands to volunteer as donors，to my grandmother，who lost her battle with cancer in 2012，which is the very reason and the driving force behind the Clara Lionel Foundation(CLF). We’re all human. And we all just want a chance: a chance at life，a chance in education，a chance at a future，really. And at CLF，our mission is to impact as many lives as possible，but it starts with just one.
People make it seem too hard to do charity work. The truth is，you don’t have to be rich to help others. You don’t need to be famous. You don’t even have to be college-educated. But it starts with your neighbour，the person right next to you，the person sitting next to you in class，the kid down the block in your neighbourhood. You just do whatever you can to help in any way that you can. And today，I want to challenge each of you to make a commitment to help one person，one organisation，one situation that touches your heart. My grandmother always used to say，“If you’ve got a dollar，there’s plenty to share.”
4．What did the author want to do at a young age
A．Watch TV. B．Grow up quickly.
C．Become wealthy. D．Help other children.
5．What directly caused the author to create and develop the CLF
A．A six-year-old kid’s request.
B．Her grandmother’s death of cancer.
C．Many volunteers’ inspiration.
D．Other organisations’ encouragement.
6．What does the underlined word “one” in Paragraph 2 refer to
A．A chance. B．A task.
C．A life. D．An organisation.
7．What does the author suggest people do in the last paragraph
A．Do little things to help those around them.
B．Work hard to get a college education.
C．Challenge their friends to offer help.
D．Do charity work whatever you are.
【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。慈善无关贫富，无关名誉，无关教育背景；从帮助身边的人做起，成就自己的事业。
4．D 细节理解题。根据第一段中的第二句“I would say to myself，‘When I grow up，when I can get rich，I will save kids all over the world.’”并结合第一段内容可知，小时候在电视中看到受苦的孩子，作者想要在长大后帮助他们。
5．B 推理判断题。根据第二段第二句中“...to my grandmother，who lost her battle with cancer in 2012，which is the very reason and the driving force behind the Clara Lionel Foundation(CLF).”可知，在2012年，祖母因病去世，这促使作者成立了克拉拉·莱昂内尔基金会(CLF)。
6．C 代词指代题。根据第二段的最后一句“And at CLF，our mission is to impact as many lives as possible，but it starts with just one.”可知，在克拉拉·莱昂内尔基金会中作者的任务是尽可能影响更多的生命，但这个任务从影响一个人的生命开始。根据该句中的“as many lives as possible”，结合“but it starts with just one”可知，画线词one指代“a life”。
7．A 推理判断题。根据第三段中的第五句“But it starts with your neighbour，the person right next to you，the person sitting next to you in class，the kid down the block in your neighbourhood.”可知，作者建议慈善从做些小事情帮助身边的人开始。

9．C 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“In humans，babies can put a round shape in a round hole from around one year of age...”结合选项，可知，一岁儿童最有可能完成“将一个球放进一个圆形的洞里”的任务。故选C项。
10．D 推理判断题。通过文章最后一段“The next step，according to the researchers，is to try and work out whether the cockatoos rely entirely on visual clues(线索)，or also use a sense of touch in making their shape selections. ”可推知，后续测试的目的是了解凤头鹦鹉在测试中是否使用触觉。故选D项。
11．D 主旨大意题。通读全文，再结合文章第一段“Goffin’s cockatoos，a kind of small parrot native to Australasia，have been shown to have similar shape-recognition abilities to a human two-year-old. ”可推知，本文主要介绍了会识别形状的凤头鹦鹉。D项“Cockatoos: Skilful Shape-Sorters”最适合作为本文标题。故选D项。

How to Start a Conversation with Strangers
Introduce Yourself
It’s not necessary to be clever when you introduce yourself. Simply focus on being genuine and sincere. When you approach the other person to start the conversation，give him a warm smile and clearly state your name.__16__ Remember to speak at a regular pace，taking care not to speak too quickly or slowly，so that the other person will have no difficulty understanding you.
Begin the Conversation
__17__ A comment about the weather or a current event may be most appropriate. Avoid beginning the conversation with anything too personal，as this may make the other person feel uncomfortable to continue the conversation. After you make your opening comments，give the person enough time to respond. Show a sincere interest in the thoughts he or she expresses about the subject.
Continue the Conversation
If you are building a rapport(融洽关系)，feel free to move on to a bit more personal topics to continue the conversation. __18__ Open-ended questions — those that can’t be answered by a simple “yes” or “no” — help to keep a conversation going.
__19__
When you have run out of things to say or need to move on to do something else，prepare your exit strategy. You may say that you need to use the bathroom or catch up with someone else. Let the other person know how much you enjoyed talking to her.__20__
A．End the Conversation
B．Bring up a general topic to begin the conversation.
C．This will help keep the conversation flowing freely.
D．If appropriate，make plans to talk again at a later date.
E．Your conversational partner will feel valued and appreciated.
F．Explain who you are and why you want to have the conversation.
G．You may want to ask about his favourite hobby，his career，his classes or upcoming events.
【语篇解读】 本文主要介绍了和陌生人交谈的技巧，如介绍自己、开始交谈、继续交谈和结束交谈等。
16．F 本部分的小标题为“介绍自己”。根据前面的“说清楚你的名字”可知，F项“解释你是谁，为什么想交谈。”符合语境。
17．B 本部分的小标题是“开始交谈”。和陌生人交谈需要有合适的话题，B项“提出一个一般话题来开始交谈。”与下文及小标题语意相符。
18．G 根据上文的“私人的话题”可知，G项中的“爱好、职业、课程和即将到来的事件”可承接上文。
19．A 根据前面的“开始交谈；继续交谈”可知，此处应为“结束谈话”，所以选A项。
20．D 本部分主要介绍如何结束交谈。D项“如果合适的话，计划稍后再谈。”符合语境。

I had driven home to celebrate my 38th birthday with my mother. When I arrived，I found her sitting proudly at the kitchen table，a chocolate cake and two boxes wrapped in orange ribbon(丝带) in front of her. “Happy birthday！” she said，__21__ at the boxes. “Open them.”
As she knows me__22__ than anyone，she’d gotten me exactly what I wanted — running clothes. I hugged her and thanked her and proceeded to eat the cake.
“Too many__23__，” I said，not really caring.
“You’ll run them off tomorrow，” Mum said.
Many adult children with a parent suffering from__24__ memory will tell you there was one day that __25__ to them that their relationship with their mother or father would be forever changed.
For me that day__26__ two weeks later，when I drove back for another short__27__. I came upon exactly the same __28__： my mum sitting at the kitchen table； a chocolate cake resting next to two boxes wrapped in curly ribbon. The ribbon was green this time. That was the only __29__. “Happy birthday！” my mum said.
I was totally confused. “What’s going on？” I asked. She smiled，“Can’t I celebrate my daughter’s birthday？”
This was no__30__. This was real life，and since my mother clearly only wanted to make me __31__. I pushed aside my fear and fulfilled my role as the __32__ daughter. I hugged her，thanked her and __33__ the clothes... I did not mention to her that we’d done all this two weeks ago.

【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。作者的母亲在为她精心筹备完38 岁的生日后不久患上了记忆障碍，在两周后准备了同样的礼物再次为作者庆祝生日。面对生病的母亲，作者用实际行动回报了母亲的爱。
21．D 根据上下文可知，母亲在说“Happy birthday! ”的同时，应该是用手指向(gesturing)装礼物的盒子，并告诉作者 “Open them.”。
22．C 母亲买给作者的礼物正是作者想要的，由此可见母亲比任何人都更了解作者。know sb. well意为“对某人非常了解”，因为有than所以用比较级形式。
23．A 根据下文母亲的答语 “You’ll run them off tomorrow...”可以看出，此处作者说的是蛋糕中的卡路里太多了。
24．C 从后文母亲忘记了已经给女儿过完生日，以及最后一段母亲可能每天跟作者说上十遍左右同样的对话，可以看出母亲记忆力衰退了(falling)。
25．A 根据下文作者对过去事情的回忆可知，她认为那些有记忆力衰退的父母的人有一天会察觉到父母的记忆力出现问题。signal表示“发信号；表明”。
26．B 根据空后内容可知，母亲又一次给作者买蛋糕过生日。由此可知，母亲记忆力衰退的日子在两周后到来了(came)。
27．D 根据本句中的“when I drove back for another short”可知，作者和母亲不住在一起，所以这次是作者回家探望(visit)母亲。
28．C 根据下文的描述及第一段内容可以看出，作者这次到了母亲家看到了与生日那天同样的情景(scene)。
29．D 根据该段与第一段中对作者看到的场景的描述可看出，母亲两次准备的生日礼物几乎相同，唯一不同的是丝带的颜色。
30．C 根据作者在第五段提到的记忆力衰退问题及该空后的“This was real life”可知，此时作者意识到，是母亲的记忆力出现了问题，而并非母亲搞的恶作剧(trick)。
31．A 虽然当天并不是作者生日，但作者知道记忆力出现问题的母亲也是一片好心，为使自己开心(happy)才准备了这么多礼物。
32．D 根据上下文可看出，作者当时尽力平复心情，努力扮演好一个对母亲感恩(grateful)的女儿的角色。该空与后文的“hugged”“thanked” 相呼应。
33．A 根据上文作者说母亲在生日那天送的衣服正是她想要的，可看出作者非常喜欢该礼物。
34．D 根据上文母亲的症状可看出母亲容易忘事，做过的事或说过的话很快就会忘记，所以此处应该是作者一天要陪着母亲一遍遍地重复同样的(same)对话。
35．C 根据上下文可看出前后两句是转折关系。尽管因母亲记忆力衰退的问题，作者一天要陪着母亲一遍遍地重复同样的对话，作者不但没有不耐烦，反而把此事当作pleasure，因为每一次对话、每一刻对于母亲来说都是新的。

【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。研究发现，与一些物质的东西相比，人们更注重家人。
36．successful 考查形容词。句意： 我们大多数人把财富与成功的事业、大房子和昂贵的衣服联系在一起。修饰名词career用形容词。故填successful。
37．carried 考查过去分词。句意： 然而，美国一家银行和经纪公司最近进行的一项研究显示，超过60%的受访者在日常生活中珍惜与家人在一起的时间。study与carry之间是逻辑上的动宾关系，表示被动，用过去分词作后置定语。 故填carried。
38．in 考查介词。表示“几分之几”时用介词in。故填in。
39．gradually 考查副词。句意： 社会正在逐渐成为一个物质主义的地方，在那里，来自现代名人的信息似乎是时尚，而且国外度假以及昂贵的珠宝是非常重要的。修饰becoming用副词。 故填gradually。
40．seems 考查主谓一致。句意：同上题。 文章基础时态为一般现在时，主语是“the message”，谓语用第三人称单数形式。 故填seems。
41．importance 考查名词。句意：同第39题。介词of后接名词作宾语。故填importance。
42．spending 考查动名词。句意： 然而，这项研究表明，无论种族、年龄和国籍如何，许多人仍认为，与花钱相比，诸如家庭和关系之类的东西珍贵得多。介词to后面接动名词作宾语。故填spending。
43．valuable 考查形容词。在本句中，用作前面谓语are的表语。故填valuable。
44．as 考查关系代词。句意： 事实上，就像通常的情况一样，我们离开家去寻找财富，获得财富后我们就会回家并与家人一起分享。此处为非限制性定语从句，关系词位于句首，指代后面的内容，在从句中作主语。故填as。
45．it 考查代词。句意：同上题。此处指代前面提到的不可数名词fortune。故填it。

(2022年新高考全国I卷)It was the day of the big cross-country run. Students from seven different primary schools in and around the small town were warming up and walking the route(路线) through thick evergreen forest.
I looked around and finally spotted David，who was standing by himself off to the side by a fence. He was small for ten years old. His usual big toothy smile was absent today. I walked over and asked him why he wasn’t with the other children. He hesitated and then said he had decided not to run.
What was wrong He had worked so hard for this event!
I quickly searched the crowd for the school’s coach and asked him what had happened. “I was afraid that kids from other schools would laugh at him，” he explained uncomfortably. “I gave him the choice to run or not，and let him decide.”
I bit back my frustration(懊恼). I knew the coach meant well—he thought he was doing the right thing. After making sure that David could run if he wanted，I turned to find him coming towards me，his small body rocking from side to side as he swung his feet forward.
David had a brain disease which prevented him from walking or running like other children，but at school his classmates thought of him as a regular kid. He always participated to the best of his ability in whatever they were doing. That was why none of the children thought it unusual that David had decided to join the cross-country team. It just took him longer—that’s all. David had not missed a single practice，and although he always finished his run long after the other children，he did always finish. As a special education teacher at the school，I was familiar with the challenges David faced and was proud of his strong determination.
注意：
1．续写词数应为150左右；
2．请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
We sat down next to each other，but David wouldn’t look at me. ________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________
One possible version：
We sat down next to each other, but David wouldn’t look at me. I said gently and quietly，“No one can change your mind，except yourself. If you desire to challenge yourself，there is nothing to do with others’ thoughts.” He sat still with a deep breath. “You have a full preparation before this event，which is the most important reason why you show up here，” I added with a sincere tone. Hearing my words，David turned to me tremblingly with tears spilling out of his eyes and expressed he had made a firm determination to finish the cross-country run. His coach heard what David said and gave me a look—the kind that was more determined than anyone else’s.
I watched as David moved up to the starting line with the other runners. __________________ _______________________________________________________________________________
One possible version：
I watched as David moved up to the starting line with the other runners. The race started. It seemed that the runway was extremely long for young children，not to mention a child with a brain disease. David insisted on running as if he had forgotten all his weaknesses，though he was tripped over within a few kilometers. It didn’t take long before he picked himself up again and continued his mission. Classmates all appeared on the racing track，cheering for him. “Come on! You can make it! We are proud of you！” they shouted enthusiastically. To everyone’s joy，he reached the final line and ranked the 20th. It was no more important whether he won the first place or not. It was his brave heart and strong faith that could make something unusual happen finally.

(2023山东东营市高二联考)
A Lesson Plan from Life Planning Education：A Youth Development Program
Purpose：To learn about body language and how to use body language
Materials(材料)：cards； container
Time：25－35 minutes
Planning Notes：
Write the words below on cards：
angry，disappointed，shy，afraid，sad，happy，nervous，excited，bored
Place the cards in the container so volunteers can draw them out one at a time.
Steps：
First make sure that all volunteers know what body language means(expressing feelings through body movement and facial expressions).Go over the following instructions：
I’ll need at least 9 volunteers to play a game similar to charades(猜词游戏).
The first volunteer will draw a card with a feeling written on it and act out the feeling without using words.
The rest of the group will guess what feeling is being communicated.Once someone correctly guesses the feeling，the next person in line will draw a card and act out what is written on it，again without words.
The game will continue until there are no more cards or until time is up.
At last，end the activity using the discussion points below：
Can you give examples of when someone’s body language communicated a different message from what he/she actually said
Sometimes one person is offended(冒犯) by another’s body language.How can you work to keep that from happening？Answers may include: be honest and direct； match your non-verbal messages to your verbal ones；be aware of cultural attitudes toward different kinds of body language.
1．To whom is the text most likely written

When I was five or six years old，I remember watching TV and seeing other children suffer in other parts of the world. I would say to myself，“When I grow up，when I can get rich，I will save kids all over the world.”
At 17，I started my career here in America，and by the age of 18，I started my first charity organisation. I went on to team up with other organisations in the following years，and met，helped，and even lost some of the most beautiful souls，from six-year-old Jasmina Anema who passed away in 2010 from leukemia(白血病)，whose story inspired thousands to volunteer as donors，to my grandmother，who lost her battle with cancer in 2012，which is the very reason and the driving force behind the Clara Lionel Foundation(CLF). We’re all human. And we all just want a chance: a chance at life，a chance in education，a chance at a future，really. And at CLF，our mission is to impact as many lives as possible，but it starts with just one.
People make it seem too hard to do charity work. The truth is，you don’t have to be rich to help others. You don’t need to be famous. You don’t even have to be college-educated. But it starts with your neighbour，the person right next to you，the person sitting next to you in class，the kid down the block in your neighbourhood. You just do whatever you can to help in any way that you can. And today，I want to challenge each of you to make a commitment to help one person，one organisation，one situation that touches your heart. My grandmother always used to say，“If you’ve got a dollar，there’s plenty to share.”
4．What did the author want to do at a young age
A．Watch TV. B．Grow up quickly.
C．Become wealthy. D．Help other children.
5．What directly caused the author to create and develop the CLF
A．A six-year-old kid’s request.
B．Her grandmother’s death of cancer.
C．Many volunteers’ inspiration.
D．Other organisations’ encouragement.
6．What does the underlined word “one” in Paragraph 2 refer to
A．A chance. B．A task.
C．A life. D．An organisation.
7．What does the author suggest people do in the last paragraph
A．Do little things to help those around them.
B．Work hard to get a college education.
C．Challenge their friends to offer help.
D．Do charity work whatever you are.

(2022年高考全国甲卷)Goffin’s cockatoos，a kind of small parrot native to Australasia，have been shown to have similar shape-recognition abilities to a human two-year-old. Though not known to use tools in the wild，the birds have proved skilful at tool use while kept in the cage. In a recent experiment，cockatoos were presented with a box with a nut inside it. The clear front of the box had a “keyhole” in a geometric shape，and the birds were given five differently shaped “keys” to choose from. Inserting the correct “key” would let out the nut.
In humans，babies can put a round shape in a round hole from around one year of age，but it will be another year before they are able to do the same with less symmetrical(对称的) shapes. This ability to recognize that a shape will need to be turned in a specific direction before it will fit is called an “allocentric frame of reference”. In the experiment，Goffin’s cockatoos were able to select the right tool for the job，in most cases，by visual recognition alone. Where trial-and-error was used，the cockatoos did better than monkeys in similar tests. This indicates that Goffin’s cockatoos do indeed possess an allocentric frame of reference when moving objects in space，similar to two-year-old babies.
The next step，according to the researchers，is to try and work out whether the cockatoos rely entirely on visual clues(线索)，or also use a sense of touch in making their shape selections.
8．How did the cockatoos get the nut from the box in the experiment
A．By following instructions. B．By using a tool.
C．By turning the box around. D．By removing the lid.
9．Which task can human one-year-olds most likely complete according to the text
A．Using a key to unlock a door.
B．Telling parrots from other birds.
C．Putting a ball into a round hole.
D．Grouping toys of different shapes.
10．What does the follow-up test aim to find out about the cockatoos
A．How far they are able to see.
B．How they track moving objects.
C．Whether they are smarter than monkeys.
D．Whether they use a sense of touch in the test.
11．Which can be a suitable title for the text
A．Cockatoos: Quick Error Checkers
B．Cockatoos: Independent Learners
C．Cockatoos: Clever Signal-Readers
D．Cockatoos: Skilful Shape-Sorters
D
Nonverbal Communication
(2023山东淄博市高二联考)When you are in another country，it is important to know its language，but it is equally important to know how to communicate nonverbally(不用言语地). Before saying anything，people communicate nonverbally by making gestures. According to an investigation，only 30 to 35 percent of our communication is verbal. When people don’t know the language，the most common way to communicate is through gestures. However，many gestures have different meanings，or no meaning at all，in different parts of the world.
In the United States，for example，nodding your head up and down means “Yes”. In some parts of Greece and Turkey，however，this motion can mean “No”. In Southeast Asia，nodding your head is a polite way of saying “I’ve heard you. ”
In ancient Rome，when the emperor wanted to spare someone’s life，he would put his thumb up. Today in the United States，when someone puts his/her thumb up，it means “Everything is all right. ” However，in Greece，the gesture is insulting(侮辱的) and should not be used there.
In the United States，raising your closed hands above your head means “I’m the champion” or “I’m the winner”. It is the sign that prizefighters make when they win a fight. When a leading Russian statesman(政治家) made this gesture after a White House meeting，Americans misunderstood and thought he meant he was a winner. In Russia，however，it is a sign of friendship.
There are other nonverbal signals that people should be aware of when they go to another country，such as the distance to maintain between speakers. Americans stand closer to each other than English people. English people don’t like touching somebody or being touched. Now in America，touch is important. For example，friends touch each other on the arm. They often put an arm around a friend when they say “Hello” or “Goodbye”.
12．Why do we need to learn nonverbal communication
A．Most people speak different languages.
B．Much of our communication is nonverbal on many occasions.
C．People usually make gestures before saying anything.
D．It’s easy to learn how to express oneself through gestures.
13．If a native in Singapore nods his head up and down when you talk to him，his motion means “________”．
A．yes B．no
C．that’s all right D．I’ve heard you
14．When the Russian leader put up his clasped hand after the meeting at the White House ________．
A．he meant Russia was the winner
B．he was insulting America
C．he made a show of friendship to America
D．he in fact meant nothing at all
15．When you are talking to English people you should remember ________．
A．not to touch them B．to stand close to them
C．to put an arm around them D．not to show your feelings

第二节(满分25分)
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。
(2022年新高考全国I卷)It was the day of the big cross-country run. Students from seven different primary schools in and around the small town were warming up and walking the route(路线) through thick evergreen forest.
I looked around and finally spotted David，who was standing by himself off to the side by a fence. He was small for ten years old. His usual big toothy smile was absent today. I walked over and asked him why he wasn’t with the other children. He hesitated and then said he had decided not to run.
What was wrong He had worked so hard for this event!
I quickly searched the crowd for the school’s coach and asked him what had happened. “I was afraid that kids from other schools would laugh at him，” he explained uncomfortably. “I gave him the choice to run or not，and let him decide.”
I bit back my frustration(懊恼). I knew the coach meant well—he thought he was doing the right thing. After making sure that David could run if he wanted，I turned to find him coming towards me，his small body rocking from side to side as he swung his feet forward.
David had a brain disease which prevented him from walking or running like other children，but at school his classmates thought of him as a regular kid. He always participated to the best of his ability in whatever they were doing. That was why none of the children thought it unusual that David had decided to join the cross-country team. It just took him longer—that’s all. David had not missed a single practice，and although he always finished his run long after the other children，he did always finish. As a special education teacher at the school，I was familiar with the challenges David faced and was proud of his strong determination.
注意：
1．续写词数应为150左右；
2．请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
We sat down next to each other，but David wouldn’t look at me. ________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________
I watched as David moved up to the starting line with the other runners. __________________ _______________________________________________________________________________

Materials(材料)：cards； container
Time：25－35 minutes
Planning Notes：
Write the words below on cards：
angry，disappointed，shy，afraid，sad，happy，nervous，excited，bored
Place the cards in the container so volunteers can draw them out one at a time.
Steps：
First make sure that all volunteers know what body language means(expressing feelings through body movement and facial expressions).Go over the following instructions：
I’ll need at least 9 volunteers to play a game similar to charades(猜词游戏).
The first volunteer will draw a card with a feeling written on it and act out the feeling without using words.
The rest of the group will guess what feeling is being communicated.Once someone correctly guesses the feeling，the next person in line will draw a card and act out what is written on it，again without words.
The game will continue until there are no more cards or until time is up.
At last，end the activity using the discussion points below：
Can you give examples of when someone’s body language communicated a different message from what he/she actually said
Sometimes one person is offended(冒犯) by another’s body language.How can you work to keep that from happening？Answers may include: be honest and direct； match your non-verbal messages to your verbal ones；be aware of cultural attitudes toward different kinds of body language.

C．Volunteers. D．Young parents.
2．What do we know about the game
A．One volunteer draws all cards.

【语篇解读】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了有关肢体语言运用的课程设计。
1．A 推理判断题。根据文章标题“A Lesson Plan from Life Planning Education: A Youth Development Program”及文章内容可知，本文是一堂关于肢体语言运用的课程设计，由此可知，文章的受众是教师。
2．D 细节理解题。根据Steps部分中的“The first volunteer ...without using words.”及“... the next person in line... again without words.”可知，志愿者们在做猜词游戏时，要避免使用话语，只能用表演的方式呈现卡片上表示感觉的单词。
3．A 细节理解题。根据文章最后一句中的“be aware of cultural attitudes toward different kinds of body language”可知，为避免肢体语言冒犯他人，应该学习了解不同的文化。
B
When I was five or six years old，I remember watching TV and seeing other children suffer in other parts of the world. I would say to myself，“When I grow up，when I can get rich，I will save kids all over the world.”
At 17，I started my career here in America，and by the age of 18，I started my first charity organisation. I went on to team up with other organisations in the following years，and met，helped，and even lost some of the most beautiful souls，from six-year-old Jasmina Anema who passed away in 2010 from leukemia(白血病)，whose story inspired thousands to volunteer as donors，to my grandmother，who lost her battle with cancer in 2012，which is the very reason and the driving force behind the Clara Lionel Foundation(CLF). We’re all human. And we all just want a chance: a chance at life，a chance in education，a chance at a future，really. And at CLF，our mission is to impact as many lives as possible，but it starts with just one.
People make it seem too hard to do charity work. The truth is，you don’t have to be rich to help others. You don’t need to be famous. You don’t even have to be college-educated. But it starts with your neighbour，the person right next to you，the person sitting next to you in class，the kid down the block in your neighbourhood. You just do whatever you can to help in any way that you can. And today，I want to challenge each of you to make a commitment to help one person，one organisation，one situation that touches your heart. My grandmother always used to say，“If you’ve got a dollar，there’s plenty to share.”
4．What did the author want to do at a young age
A．Watch TV. B．Grow up quickly.
C．Become wealthy. D．Help other children.
5．What directly caused the author to create and develop the CLF
A．A six-year-old kid’s request.
B．Her grandmother’s death of cancer.
C．Many volunteers’ inspiration.
D．Other organisations’ encouragement.
6．What does the underlined word “one” in Paragraph 2 refer to
A．A chance. B．A task.
C．A life. D．An organisation.
7．What does the author suggest people do in the last paragraph
A．Do little things to help those around them.
B．Work hard to get a college education.
C．Challenge their friends to offer help.
D．Do charity work whatever you are.
【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。慈善无关贫富，无关名誉，无关教育背景；从帮助身边的人做起，成就自己的事业。
4．D 细节理解题。根据第一段中的第二句“I would say to myself，‘When I grow up，when I can get rich，I will save kids all over the world.’”并结合第一段内容可知，小时候在电视中看到受苦的孩子，作者想要在长大后帮助他们。
5．B 推理判断题。根据第二段第二句中“...to my grandmother，who lost her battle with cancer in 2012，which is the very reason and the driving force behind the Clara Lionel Foundation(CLF).”可知，在2012年，祖母因病去世，这促使作者成立了克拉拉·莱昂内尔基金会(CLF)。
6．C 代词指代题。根据第二段的最后一句“And at CLF，our mission is to impact as many lives as possible，but it starts with just one.”可知，在克拉拉·莱昂内尔基金会中作者的任务是尽可能影响更多的生命，但这个任务从影响一个人的生命开始。根据该句中的“as many lives as possible”，结合“but it starts with just one”可知，画线词one指代“a life”。
7．A 推理判断题。根据第三段中的第五句“But it starts with your neighbour，the person right next to you，the person sitting next to you in class，the kid down the block in your neighbourhood.”可知，作者建议慈善从做些小事情帮助身边的人开始。
C
(2022年高考全国甲卷)Goffin’s cockatoos，a kind of small parrot native to Australasia，have been shown to have similar shape-recognition abilities to a human two-year-old. Though not known to use tools in the wild，the birds have proved skilful at tool use while kept in the cage. In a recent experiment，cockatoos were presented with a box with a nut inside it. The clear front of the box had a “keyhole” in a geometric shape，and the birds were given five differently shaped “keys” to choose from. Inserting the correct “key” would let out the nut.
In humans，babies can put a round shape in a round hole from around one year of age，but it will be another year before they are able to do the same with less symmetrical(对称的) shapes. This ability to recognize that a shape will need to be turned in a specific direction before it will fit is called an “allocentric frame of reference”. In the experiment，Goffin’s cockatoos were able to select the right tool for the job，in most cases，by visual recognition alone. Where trial-and-error was used，the cockatoos did better than monkeys in similar tests. This indicates that Goffin’s cockatoos do indeed possess an allocentric frame of reference when moving objects in space，similar to two-year-old babies.
The next step，according to the researchers，is to try and work out whether the cockatoos rely entirely on visual clues(线索)，or also use a sense of touch in making their shape selections.
8．How did the cockatoos get the nut from the box in the experiment
A．By following instructions. B．By using a tool.
C．By turning the box around. D．By removing the lid.
9．Which task can human one-year-olds most likely complete according to the text
A．Using a key to unlock a door.
B．Telling parrots from other birds.
C．Putting a ball into a round hole.
D．Grouping toys of different shapes.
10．What does the follow-up test aim to find out about the cockatoos
A．How far they are able to see.
B．How they track moving objects.
C．Whether they are smarter than monkeys.
D．Whether they use a sense of touch in the test.
11．Which can be a suitable title for the text
A．Cockatoos: Quick Error Checkers
B．Cockatoos: Independent Learners
C．Cockatoos: Clever Signal-Readers
D．Cockatoos: Skilful Shape-Sorters
【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一种会识别形状的凤头鹦鹉。
8．B 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Though not known to use tools in the wild，the birds have proved skilful at tool use while kept in the cage.”以及“...the birds were given five differently shaped ‘key’ to choose from. Inserting the correct ‘key’ would let out the nut.”可知，在实验中，凤头鹦鹉是通过使用工具从盒子里取出坚果的。故选B项。
9．C 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“In humans，babies can put a round shape in a round hole from around one year of age...”结合选项，可知，一岁儿童最有可能完成“将一个球放进一个圆形的洞里”的任务。故选C项。
10．D 推理判断题。通过文章最后一段“The next step，according to the researchers，is to try and work out whether the cockatoos rely entirely on visual clues(线索)，or also use a sense of touch in making their shape selections. ”可推知，后续测试的目的是了解凤头鹦鹉在测试中是否使用触觉。故选D项。
11．D 主旨大意题。通读全文，再结合文章第一段“Goffin’s cockatoos，a kind of small parrot native to Australasia，have been shown to have similar shape-recognition abilities to a human two-year-old. ”可推知，本文主要介绍了会识别形状的凤头鹦鹉。D项“Cockatoos: Skilful Shape-Sorters”最适合作为本文标题。故选D项。

Nonverbal Communication
(2023山东淄博市高二联考)When you are in another country，it is important to know its language，but it is equally important to know how to communicate nonverbally(不用言语地). Before saying anything，people communicate nonverbally by making gestures. According to an investigation，only 30 to 35 percent of our communication is verbal. When people don’t know the language，the most common way to communicate is through gestures. However，many gestures have different meanings，or no meaning at all，in different parts of the world.
In the United States，for example，nodding your head up and down means “Yes”. In some parts of Greece and Turkey，however，this motion can mean “No”. In Southeast Asia，nodding your head is a polite way of saying “I’ve heard you. ”
In ancient Rome，when the emperor wanted to spare someone’s life，he would put his thumb up. Today in the United States，when someone puts his/her thumb up，it means “Everything is all right. ” However，in Greece，the gesture is insulting(侮辱的) and should not be used there.
In the United States，raising your closed hands above your head means “I’m the champion” or “I’m the winner”. It is the sign that prizefighters make when they win a fight. When a leading Russian statesman(政治家) made this gesture after a White House meeting，Americans misunderstood and thought he meant he was a winner. In Russia，however，it is a sign of friendship.
There are other nonverbal signals that people should be aware of when they go to another country，such as the distance to maintain between speakers. Americans stand closer to each other than English people. English people don’t like touching somebody or being touched. Now in America，touch is important. For example，friends touch each other on the arm. They often put an arm around a friend when they say “Hello” or “Goodbye”.
12．Why do we need to learn nonverbal communication
A．Most people speak different languages.
B．Much of our communication is nonverbal on many occasions.
C．People usually make gestures before saying anything.
D．It’s easy to learn how to express oneself through gestures.
13．If a native in Singapore nods his head up and down when you talk to him，his motion means “________”．
A．yes B．no
C．that’s all right D．I’ve heard you
14．When the Russian leader put up his clasped hand after the meeting at the White House ________．
A．he meant Russia was the winner
B．he was insulting America
C．he made a show of friendship to America
D．he in fact meant nothing at all
15．When you are talking to English people you should remember ________．
A．not to touch them B．to stand close to them
C．to put an arm around them D．not to show your feelings
【语篇解读】本文主要介绍了“非语言交流”这种方式。
12．B 推理判断题。根据第一段可知，仅有30%—35%的交流是通过言语的形式，从而推出“在很多场合，大多数的交流是非语言形式的。”是学习“非语言交流”的最主要的原因。
13．D 细节理解题。根据文章第二段的最后一句话“In Southeast Asia，nodding your head...‘I’ve heard you’”可知答案。
14．C 细节理解题。由第四段后半部分中的“When a leading Russian statesman made... it is a sign of friendship.”可知，在白宫的俄罗斯领导人在向美国展示友谊。
15．A 细节理解题。由最后一段“English people don’t like touching somebody or being touched.”可知，和英国人谈话时不能触碰到他们的身体。
第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)
阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
How to Start a Conversation with Strangers
Introduce Yourself
It’s not necessary to be clever when you introduce yourself. Simply focus on being genuine and sincere. When you approach the other person to start the conversation，give him a warm smile and clearly state your name.__16__ Remember to speak at a regular pace，taking care not to speak too quickly or slowly，so that the other person will have no difficulty understanding you.
Begin the Conversation
__17__ A comment about the weather or a current event may be most appropriate. Avoid beginning the conversation with anything too personal，as this may make the other person feel uncomfortable to continue the conversation. After you make your opening comments，give the person enough time to respond. Show a sincere interest in the thoughts he or she expresses about the subject.
Continue the Conversation
If you are building a rapport(融洽关系)，feel free to move on to a bit more personal topics to continue the conversation. __18__ Open-ended questions — those that can’t be answered by a simple “yes” or “no” — help to keep a conversation going.
__19__
When you have run out of things to say or need to move on to do something else，prepare your exit strategy. You may say that you need to use the bathroom or catch up with someone else. Let the other person know how much you enjoyed talking to her.__20__
A．End the Conversation
B．Bring up a general topic to begin the conversation.
C．This will help keep the conversation flowing freely.
D．If appropriate，make plans to talk again at a later date.
E．Your conversational partner will feel valued and appreciated.
F．Explain who you are and why you want to have the conversation.
G．You may want to ask about his favourite hobby，his career，his classes or upcoming events.
【语篇解读】 本文主要介绍了和陌生人交谈的技巧，如介绍自己、开始交谈、继续交谈和结束交谈等。
16．F 本部分的小标题为“介绍自己”。根据前面的“说清楚你的名字”可知，F项“解释你是谁，为什么想交谈。”符合语境。
17．B 本部分的小标题是“开始交谈”。和陌生人交谈需要有合适的话题，B项“提出一个一般话题来开始交谈。”与下文及小标题语意相符。
18．G 根据上文的“私人的话题”可知，G项中的“爱好、职业、课程和即将到来的事件”可承接上文。
19．A 根据前面的“开始交谈；继续交谈”可知，此处应为“结束谈话”，所以选A项。
20．D 本部分主要介绍如何结束交谈。D项“如果合适的话，计划稍后再谈。”符合语境。
第二部分 语言运用(共两节，满分30分)

阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
I had driven home to celebrate my 38th birthday with my mother. When I arrived，I found her sitting proudly at the kitchen table，a chocolate cake and two boxes wrapped in orange ribbon(丝带) in front of her. “Happy birthday！” she said，__21__ at the boxes. “Open them.”
As she knows me__22__ than anyone，she’d gotten me exactly what I wanted — running clothes. I hugged her and thanked her and proceeded to eat the cake.
“Too many__23__，” I said，not really caring.
“You’ll run them off tomorrow，” Mum said.
Many adult children with a parent suffering from__24__ memory will tell you there was one day that __25__ to them that their relationship with their mother or father would be forever changed.
For me that day__26__ two weeks later，when I drove back for another short__27__. I came upon exactly the same __28__： my mum sitting at the kitchen table； a chocolate cake resting next to two boxes wrapped in curly ribbon. The ribbon was green this time. That was the only __29__. “Happy birthday！” my mum said.
I was totally confused. “What’s going on？” I asked. She smiled，“Can’t I celebrate my daughter’s birthday？”
This was no__30__. This was real life，and since my mother clearly only wanted to make me __31__. I pushed aside my fear and fulfilled my role as the __32__ daughter. I hugged her，thanked her and __33__ the clothes... I did not mention to her that we’d done all this two weeks ago.
My house is her world now. My mother and I have the__34__ conversation roughly 10 times a day. __35__，I consider it a pleasure，because every minute is new for her.

【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。作者的母亲在为她精心筹备完38 岁的生日后不久患上了记忆障碍，在两周后准备了同样的礼物再次为作者庆祝生日。面对生病的母亲，作者用实际行动回报了母亲的爱。
21．D 根据上下文可知，母亲在说“Happy birthday! ”的同时，应该是用手指向(gesturing)装礼物的盒子，并告诉作者 “Open them.”。
22．C 母亲买给作者的礼物正是作者想要的，由此可见母亲比任何人都更了解作者。know sb. well意为“对某人非常了解”，因为有than所以用比较级形式。
23．A 根据下文母亲的答语 “You’ll run them off tomorrow...”可以看出，此处作者说的是蛋糕中的卡路里太多了。
24．C 从后文母亲忘记了已经给女儿过完生日，以及最后一段母亲可能每天跟作者说上十遍左右同样的对话，可以看出母亲记忆力衰退了(falling)。
25．A 根据下文作者对过去事情的回忆可知，她认为那些有记忆力衰退的父母的人有一天会察觉到父母的记忆力出现问题。signal表示“发信号；表明”。
26．B 根据空后内容可知，母亲又一次给作者买蛋糕过生日。由此可知，母亲记忆力衰退的日子在两周后到来了(came)。
27．D 根据本句中的“when I drove back for another short”可知，作者和母亲不住在一起，所以这次是作者回家探望(visit)母亲。
28．C 根据下文的描述及第一段内容可以看出，作者这次到了母亲家看到了与生日那天同样的情景(scene)。
29．D 根据该段与第一段中对作者看到的场景的描述可看出，母亲两次准备的生日礼物几乎相同，唯一不同的是丝带的颜色。
30．C 根据作者在第五段提到的记忆力衰退问题及该空后的“This was real life”可知，此时作者意识到，是母亲的记忆力出现了问题，而并非母亲搞的恶作剧(trick)。
31．A 虽然当天并不是作者生日，但作者知道记忆力出现问题的母亲也是一片好心，为使自己开心(happy)才准备了这么多礼物。
32．D 根据上下文可看出，作者当时尽力平复心情，努力扮演好一个对母亲感恩(grateful)的女儿的角色。该空与后文的“hugged”“thanked” 相呼应。
33．A 根据上文作者说母亲在生日那天送的衣服正是她想要的，可看出作者非常喜欢该礼物。
34．D 根据上文母亲的症状可看出母亲容易忘事，做过的事或说过的话很快就会忘记，所以此处应该是作者一天要陪着母亲一遍遍地重复同样的(same)对话。
35．C 根据上下文可看出前后两句是转折关系。尽管因母亲记忆力衰退的问题，作者一天要陪着母亲一遍遍地重复同样的对话，作者不但没有不耐烦，反而把此事当作pleasure，因为每一次对话、每一刻对于母亲来说都是新的。
第二节(共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分)
阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
Most of us relate wealth to a36．________(success) career，a big house and expensive clothes. However，a recent study，37．________(carry) out by a USA-based bank and brokerage company，showed that more than six 38．________ ten of the people surveyed treasured time with their family in daily life.
Not long ago，a spokesman for UK company Luxury Family Hotel told the DailyMail，society is 39．________(gradual) becoming a materialistic(物质主义的) place where the message from modern famous people 40．________(seem) to be that fashion，and foreign holidays as well as expensive jewels are of great 41．________(important). However，the study shows that many people still feel things such as family and relationships，compared to 42．________(spend) money，are more 43．________(value) regardless of their race，age and nationality. Indeed，44．________ is often the case，we leave home to seek our fortune and，when we get 45．________，we go home and share with our family.
【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。研究发现，与一些物质的东西相比，人们更注重家人。
36．successful 考查形容词。句意： 我们大多数人把财富与成功的事业、大房子和昂贵的衣服联系在一起。修饰名词career用形容词。故填successful。
37．carried 考查过去分词。句意： 然而，美国一家银行和经纪公司最近进行的一项研究显示，超过60%的受访者在日常生活中珍惜与家人在一起的时间。study与carry之间是逻辑上的动宾关系，表示被动，用过去分词作后置定语。 故填carried。
38．in 考查介词。表示“几分之几”时用介词in。故填in。
39．gradually 考查副词。句意： 社会正在逐渐成为一个物质主义的地方，在那里，来自现代名人的信息似乎是时尚，而且国外度假以及昂贵的珠宝是非常重要的。修饰becoming用副词。 故填gradually。
40．seems 考查主谓一致。句意：同上题。 文章基础时态为一般现在时，主语是“the message”，谓语用第三人称单数形式。 故填seems。
41．importance 考查名词。句意：同第39题。介词of后接名词作宾语。故填importance。
42．spending 考查动名词。句意： 然而，这项研究表明，无论种族、年龄和国籍如何，许多人仍认为，与花钱相比，诸如家庭和关系之类的东西珍贵得多。介词to后面接动名词作宾语。故填spending。
43．valuable 考查形容词。在本句中，用作前面谓语are的表语。故填valuable。
44．as 考查关系代词。句意： 事实上，就像通常的情况一样，我们离开家去寻找财富，获得财富后我们就会回家并与家人一起分享。此处为非限制性定语从句，关系词位于句首，指代后面的内容，在从句中作主语。故填as。
45．it 考查代词。句意：同上题。此处指代前面提到的不可数名词fortune。故填it。

(2022年新高考全国I卷)It was the day of the big cross-country run. Students from seven different primary schools in and around the small town were warming up and walking the route(路线) through thick evergreen forest.
I looked around and finally spotted David，who was standing by himself off to the side by a fence. He was small for ten years old. His usual big toothy smile was absent today. I walked over and asked him why he wasn’t with the other children. He hesitated and then said he had decided not to run.
What was wrong He had worked so hard for this event!
I quickly searched the crowd for the school’s coach and asked him what had happened. “I was afraid that kids from other schools would laugh at him，” he explained uncomfortably. “I gave him the choice to run or not，and let him decide.”
I bit back my frustration(懊恼). I knew the coach meant well—he thought he was doing the right thing. After making sure that David could run if he wanted，I turned to find him coming towards me，his small body rocking from side to side as he swung his feet forward.
David had a brain disease which prevented him from walking or running like other children，but at school his classmates thought of him as a regular kid. He always participated to the best of his ability in whatever they were doing. That was why none of the children thought it unusual that David had decided to join the cross-country team. It just took him longer—that’s all. David had not missed a single practice，and although he always finished his run long after the other children，he did always finish. As a special education teacher at the school，I was familiar with the challenges David faced and was proud of his strong determination.

We sat down next to each other, but David wouldn’t look at me. I said gently and quietly，“No one can change your mind，except yourself. If you desire to challenge yourself，there is nothing to do with others’ thoughts.” He sat still with a deep breath. “You have a full preparation before this event，which is the most important reason why you show up here，” I added with a sincere tone. Hearing my words，David turned to me tremblingly with tears spilling out of his eyes and expressed he had made a firm determination to finish the cross-country run. His coach heard what David said and gave me a look—the kind that was more determined than anyone else’s.
I watched as David moved up to the starting line with the other runners. __________________ _______________________________________________________________________________

I watched as David moved up to the starting line with the other runners. The race started. It seemed that the runway was extremely long for young children，not to mention a child with a brain disease. David insisted on running as if he had forgotten all his weaknesses，though he was tripped over within a few kilometers. It didn’t take long before he picked himself up again and continued his mission. Classmates all appeared on the racing track，cheering for him. “Come on! You can make it! We are proud of you！” they shouted enthusiastically. To everyone’s joy，he reached the final line and ranked the 20th. It was no more important whether he won the first place or not. It was his brave heart and strong faith that could make something unusual happen finally.
