推理判断解题技巧
推理判断题要求考生根据文章提供的线索和事实进行逻辑推理， 推测作者未提到的事实或某事发生的可 能性， 将间接论据连贯起来， 得出一个合理的结论。合理， 就是论推理有事实根据， 而不是读者主观臆断 的。推理判断题常以 infer ，imply ，suggest ，conclude, learn ，intend ，mean ，describe ，purpose 等词提问。 提问中往往含有表示推测的情态动词， 如 can，could，might, would 等和其他表示可能性的副词， 如probably，
most likely 等。
所谓推断就是从已知的事情中推测未知的事情。这里所说的未知是指文章或作者没有直接说明但已暗 示出来， 或者根据作者提供的信息， 可能引出的必然性结论。所以推断类题目尽管不能在文章中直接找到 答案， 但我们可以在文章中找到可供推论的依据。还有一个重要的技巧就是排除法的适当运用。很多错误 选项的排除要靠我们对于文章事实和细节的准确把握。因此我们也要相应加强对于文章事实细节的训练。
常见的技巧方法一般有如下几类：
方法：在理解原文表面信息的基础上，做出判断和推理。得出其隐含意义和深层意思。考查对阅读材料 全篇的逻辑关系的理解，对文章各段，各句之间的逻辑关系的理解能力。依据文章事实，得出得出符合逻 辑的结论。 陷阱： ①文章直接言明的内容，这不是推断出来的（凡是推断题一定不选原文信息的同义表述） ② 注意干扰项与文章内容有细微区别。（推理判断一定要合情合理，有理有据，依据事实，切不可主观臆断） ③察言观色，依据作者所陈述的细节、事实以及作者的措词、态度和语气，找出能够表露作者思想 倾向和感彩的词句，然后利用自己已获得的相关知识进行推理判断，从而得出符合逻辑的结论。
方法 1 逻辑推理法
逻辑推理法，即根据上下文及其相互间的关系，对文章片段或全文进行深层理解来解答题目。常以时 间关系、条件关系、因果关系、比较关系、转折关系等作为推理根据， 有时甚至还得联系作者的意图、态
度等弦外之音。主要考查学生对文章细节的理解和逻辑思维的推断能力。

Around the world, people have different ideas about what good manners are.
When you go to restaurants in different parts of the world, it’s important to know the right and wrong things to do. For example, in China, it’s OK to make a lot of noise in a restaurant. In fact, if a restaurant isn’t noisy or lively, you may think there’s something wrong with it. However, in many western countries, restaurants are quiet
places. If a table is too loud, other people in the restaurant might even complain to the owner of the restaurant.
Paying the bill is also different from country to country. In China, one person usually pays for everybody. In western countries, one person pays when he or she is entertaining clients, but when friends eat together, they usually share the cost. This is called “Going Dutch”. Also, when Westerners pay the bill, they usually leave some money for the waiter. This is called “leaving a tip”. Leaving a tip is thought to be polite. In the US, people are expected to tip between 15%and 20%of the bill, which is decided by how good the service is. Good waiters can
make a lot of money!
Different countries have different customs. When you travel to another country, please follow its customs, just
as the saying goes “When in Rome, do as the Romans do.”

Come on, Amy. You must TRY HARDER. Amy told herself silently. She was in her class’ Second-Day-of-School Game with her teammates, whom she only met yesterday. This was her first chance to
make new friends, and she was nervous.
So far Amy hadn’t given any useful suggestions—after all, she was totally new to this town. Luckily, no one
seemed to care about it. This relaxed her a lot.
Since the Blue Team left the park, they had worked out the first two clues (线索) and had been to the post
office. Now they were in front of the cinema.
Henry was reading aloud the third clue: Go to our town founder’s last resting place.
I know THIS ONE! Amy thought, excited.
“To the cemetery (墓地)” Cindy said.
“No, wait!” Amy said. “I’ve read about it. The founder was buried near the library.”
“Wow. I’ve walked by every day,” Tyler said. “Never knew that!”
“Good job! That will save valuable time, ” Cindy smiled at Amy.
“We still need to hurry,” Tyler reminded, pointing to the Yellow Team coming near.
“I know a shortcut!” Henry suggested. “Follow me!” No one moved.
“No, seriously,” Henry said. “You know I’m always running late. I know every shortcut in town.” The others
finally agreed.
A few sharp turns, and they were there! This time Amy read the clue aloud: Now go to the place where the
football is running around!
“The football stadium!” They called out together and started to run …
Now they’d got the final clue: Look where you’ve been, see where you are. Use your map wisely and
you’ll be a star!
Looking closely at the map, everyone thought hard.
“Aha! A star!” Cindy suddenly broke the silence. She quickly took out a pencil.
As they watched her drawing lines on the map, everyone understood.
They began running back to where they started. They were closer and closer, and finally crossed the finish
line-just one step behind the Red Team!
“So…close…” Tyler made a face, and they all laughed together.
“Nice job, new girl,” Cindy gave Amy a high-five.
“That was really fun,” said Henry. “I hope we’ll be on the same team soon.”
“Me, too,” Amy agreed, smiling.

Plunk! I dropped another pecan (山核桃) into my basket. Then a gentle autumn wind blew some more off the
tree. I ran to pick them up. Whew! Pecan picking was hard. My basket was only half full.
I was visiting my grandpa’s farm in Kansas, and Grandpa sent me into the woods to pick up pecans for us to
enjoy later. I wasn’t about to let him down.
Then something caught my eye: a squirrel picked up a pecan, climbed up a tree and disappeared into a large hole. A moment later, the squirrel climbed down to the ground to pick another pecan. Once again, he took the
pecan back to his secret hiding place inside the hollow (洞) of the tree.
Not so secret anymore, I thought. I ran over to the tree and found the hollow was filled with sweet pecans. They were right there for the taking. This was my chance. Handful by handful, I took all the pecans from the
hollow. Now the basket was full!
I was so proud of myself. I couldn’t wait to show Grandpa all of the pecans I’d collected.
“Look, Grandpa,” I shouted, “look at all of the pecans I found!”
Grandpa took a look at my basket. “Well, well, how did you find so many, Jimmy ” I told him how I’d followed the squirrel and taken the pecans from his hiding place. Grandpa congratulated me on finding out something about the squirrel’s habits. Then he did something that surprised me. He handed the basket back to me
and put his arm gently around my shoulders.
“That squirrel worked very hard to collect his winter food,” he said. “Now that all of his pecans are gone,
don’t you think that little squirrel will be very hungry when it gets cold ”
“I didn’t think about that,” I said.
“I know,” Grandpa said. “But a good man should never take advantage of someone else’s hard work, even
the squirrel’s.”
Suddenly I felt as hollow as that old tree. The image (形象) of that hungry squirrel wouldn’t leave my mind.
There was only one thing I could do.

Seiichi Sano, an 89-year-old Japanese man, rides a wave at Katase Nishihama Beach, Thursday, March 30,
2023. He has been recognized as the oldest male to surf（冲浪） by the Guinness World Records.
But maybe he will just keep surfing. “I think it would be interesting to try to surf until I’m 100,” Sano said.
“I think I take better care of myself when I have dreams like this. Even now, I take better care of myself than I did
before.”
Sano said he got the idea to try surfing from a worker at his local bank. The man’s skin was always dark and he did not look like a usual worker. His secret to keep healthy and energetic, he said, was surfing. So, Sano found
a teacher.
Sano gets out most weekends on the black-sand beach. “I don’t consider myself an old man,” he said in his wet suit, board standing next to him. “I have never thought of myself as an old person. I always feel that I can still
move forward. I can still do it. I can still enjoy it.”
Several young students who also work with Sano’s surf teacher talked about Sano.
“I think age doesn’t matter in surfing,” a 12-year-old surfer said.
“He is so amazing,” added his younger brother.
“To be honest, I was surprised by his age,” said Sano’s surfing teacher. “I was worried that he would get
hurt. I did not know how fit he was.”
Sano still works 9-to-5 at his job. Surfing helps make him less stressed. “People often say that surfing is life
itself,” he said. “I think it is true.”

Warming temperatures and shorter winters might sound like the end of snow days. However, rising temperatures may actually cause snowstorms to dump more snow, says David Robinson. He is a professor at a
university in New Jersey. He studies climate (气候) change.
Temperature change is one of the greatest in Earth’s climate change over a long period of time. It can happen
naturally or because of human activities, such as burning gas and coal. Burning these fuels produces carbon
dioxide ( 二氧化碳) and other pollutants into the atmosphere, which hold heat in the atmosphere, leading to
warmer global temperatures over time.
But how could warmer temperatures lead to more snow To get snow, you need moisture (水汽) and freezing temperatures (0℃ or less), says Robinson. Without moisture in the air, there is no precipitation (rain or snow). Robinson says there are signs that snowstorms are becoming stronger. This is because of this connection between
moisture and precipitation.
“The warmer the air becomes, the more moisture it holds. So, if it’s warming and still cold enough to snow,
you can get more snow,” Robinson says.
Of the 10 biggest snowfalls in D ．C ． region, five happened in the past 25 years, according to the NWS. During that same time period, average winter temperatures in D ．C ． increased. In 1996, the average winter
temperature was 1.8℃. In 2020, it was 6℃ .
Weather experts suggest that rising temperatures may make winter shorter and less cold. But for now, the snow is still falling. One day, winter might not have any days below the freezing temperature. Once temperatures
stay above freezing, snowstorms become rain. Until then, we might continue to see strong storms.
According to Robinson, that time could come sooner than we think. He says, “When we look back, years
from now, we may see that this was the breaking point.”
1 ．What is paragraph 2 mainly about
A ．How Earth’s climate changes. B ．What causes rising temperatures.
C ．What produces carbon dioxide. D ．How pollution influences climate.
2 ．What will the warming temperatures cause according to the text
A ．Less coal. B ．Drier weather.
C ．Longer winters. D ．Stronger snowstorms.
3 ．What is the purpose of paragraph 5
A ．To introduce D ．C .
B ．To report the biggest 10 snowstorms.
C ．To support Robinson’s ideas.
D ．To show the increase of temperatures.
4 ．What does Robinson think of the future warming temperatures
A ．Impossible. B ．Serious. C ．Meaningless. D ．Amazing.
5 ．Where is the text probably taken from
A ．A science magazine. B ．A story book.
C ．A science fiction. D ．A travel guide.

A garden is much more than just creating a beautiful environment. It can be a way to save or even make money and, more than that, it can be a place where you can express yourself. For me, it’s a bit of all these things. I know it may sound strange for a 13-year-old girl to be interested in gardening, but I have always been and I would
love to make a career (职业) out of it.
I have learned many things these past few years. I have been reading about and doing some gardening. So, here is my top advice about gardening. First, you do not need to spend a lot of money to have a beautiful garden. Some of the gardens that I think are the prettiest are just lines of plants. There aren’t many garden decorations (装 饰) and pathways. It’s just beautiful plants with fruits and vegetables. We can also find many useful things for free, from pieces of old wood to old pots and pans. Or, we can build things for free from materials that other people
have thrown away.
If you just remember that planting what is more than you need will take the stress away of losing some plants, you will save yourself a lot of worry, too. Besides, you need to ask yourself which plants produce enough food to make them worth growing. I actually sat down and did the maths on that one this spring. It amazed me what some plants were worth. A tomato, for example, can produce 50- 150 worth of fruit. It takes up a lot of space but that’s a lot of money coming out of a 50-pence seed (种子)! So if I had known earlier what each plant
could save us, I would have told my parents to fill our garden with different plants.
And finally, gardening doesn’t have to be all or nothing. But then I guess that’s more of a personality weakness than anything. I struggle with doing things a little at a time. Once I decide to do something, I usually devote every waking hour to it for a little while and then get tired. So it’s okay to just have one tomato plant, and
it’s okay to have an off year. It will save you a lot of stress.
1 ．What does the writer want to tell us about gardening in paragraph 1
A ．The gardeners can make much money.
B ．It’s just about creating a beautiful place.
C ．The most important is to express yourself.
D ．It means different things to different people.
2 ．How would the writer describe her favorite garden
A ．Simple. B ．Expensive. C ．Magic. D ．Creative.
3 ．What advice does the writer give us about gardening
A ．Use what we can find around us. B ．Try to make a career out of it.
C ．Ask other gardeners to give help. D ．Spend as much time as we can.
4 ．What can we learn about the writer’s gardening experience
A ．She wants to grow everything.
B ．She did everything right.
C ．She has a lot of fun in doing it.
D ．She needs to work harder.
5 ．What does the underlined word “devote” mean in the last paragraph
A ．Waste. B ．Spend. C ．Change. D ．Count.

You stand in a garden. A low noise reaches your ears. You see a small insect flying near your head. You turn
to look, and it flies out of sight. There it is again! You move slowly. You can see yellow and black stripes on it.
Is it a bee It lands on a flower, and you take a closer look.
Bees fold(折叠) their wings onto their backs when they stop flying. But this insect’s wings reach out like a
fly’s. That’s because it is a fly—a flower fly.
Many flower flies look like bees. This helps keep them safe from animals that may want to eat them. Insects with yellow and black stripes usually have stingers(刺). Insect eaters, such as some birds and frogs, need to get stung only once to know that stripes mean trouble. Flower flies can’t sting, but insect eaters see the stripes and
leave the flies alone.
Flower flies spend most of their time looking for food. Like bees, flower flies eat pollen(花粉) and nectar(花 蜜). This makes them easy to find in a garden full of flowers. They are helpful garden insects just like bees. Adult
flower flies move pollen from one flower to another, which helps some flowers grow into fruit.
Flower flies can stay in one place while flying. Most insects move forward when they fly. But flower flies can twist their wings, much like hummingbirds do. Twisting keeps them in one place, so they can remain over
flowers, leaves, or even you!
1 ．In which part of a magazine can we probably see this passage
A ．Nature. B ．Culture. C ．Fashion. D ．Health.
2 ．In which way are bees and flower flies different
A ．The food that they eat. B ．The colour of their stripes.
C ．The way they help garden flowers grow. D ．The shape of wings when they stop flying.
3 ．What does the underlined phrase “leave the flies alone” in Paragraph 4 mean
A ．Make friends with the flies. B ．Eat the flies up.
C ．Keep away from the flies. D ．Invite the flies in.
4 ．What might the writer of the passage agree with
A ．People usually prefer bees to flower flies.
B ．People sometimes mistake flower flies for bees.
C ．People should stop birds eating bees and flower flies.
D ．People should have beautiful gardens in their neighbourhood.

When considering the kind of experience that makes life better, most people first think that happiness depends on experiencing pleasure: good food, good jobs, all the comforts that money can buy. If we couldn’t have
these, we might as well sit in front of the television on a quiet evening.
Pleasure is an important part of the quality of life, but by itself it doesn’t bring happiness. When people think further about what makes a worthy life, they tend ( 倾 向于) to move beyond pleasant memories and begin to remember other events, other experiences that overlap ( 有重叠) pleasurable ones but fall into a group with a separate name: enjoyment. Enjoyable events take place when people have not only satisfied a need or met some
earlier expectation, but also achieved something unexpected.
Enjoyment is characterized by a sense of curiosity, of achievement. Playing a tennis game that improves one’s ability is enjoyable, as is reading a book that shows things in a new light, as is having a conversation that leads us to express ideas we didn’t know we had. None of these experiences may be especially pleasurable when they are taking place, but when we think back on them afterwards, we would say, “That really was fun” and wish
they would happen again. After an enjoyable event we know that we have changed, and grown.
Experiences that give pleasure can also give enjoyment, but the two feelings are quite different. For example, everybody takes pleasure in eating. However, to enjoys food is more difficult — you have to pay enough attention to a meal, so as to sense and tell its various tastes. As this example suggests, we can experience pleasure without any psychic energy, while enjoyment happens only as a result of full attention. A person can feel pleasure without any effort, as long as certain parts in his brain are stimulated (刺激). But it’s impossible to enjoy a tennis game or a book without full attention. It’s for this reason that pleasure does not last long, nor does it make us grow.
Growth requires full attention to goals that are new, that are relatively challenging.
Without enjoyment, life will go on, and it can even be pleasant. But it depends heavily on luck and the
external ( 外部的) environment. To achieve personal control over the quality of experience, however, we need to
learn how to build enjoyment into what happens day in, day out.
1 ．You will most probably experience enjoyment when you .
A ．buy expensive shoes B ．order a delicious meal
C ．talk with friends for new ideas D ．sit quietly in front of a television
2 ．What do you know about pleasure and enjoyment from the passage
A ．Enjoyment grows out of pleasure.
B ．Pleasure and enjoyment come hand in hand.
C ．Pleasurable experiences are part of enjoyable ones.
D ．Some experiences provide both pleasure and enjoyment.
3 ．The words “psychic energy” in Paragraph 4 are closest in meaning to .
A ．attention B ．interest C ．ability D ．knowledge
4 ．The writer probably agrees that .
A ．feeling pleasure stops people from achieving growth
B ．feeling enjoyment comes with achieving growth
C ．a worthy life depends on luck and environment
D ．pleasure is the key to a happy and worthy life

People believe that every word has its correct meaning(s). When we are not sure, we usually check online, or
turn to our teachers or dictionaries. But do you know how dictionaries were made in the past
Dictionary writers first read the important books of the period or the subject that the dictionary was about. As they read, they copied necessary information on cards: interesting words, common words—both in their daily uses and unusual uses, and also the sentences where they were used. That is to say, the words, along with the uses of each word, were collected. For a really big dictionary, millions of such cards were collected. This task could last for years. As the cards were collected, they were put in alphabetical order (A—Z). When this was done, there
would be several hundred cards for each single word.
Then, to define ( 定义) a word, the dictionary writer placed its hundreds of cards before him. He read the cards closely, threw away some, read the rest again, and divided up the cards according to what he thought were the common uses of the word. Finally, he wrote the definitions, following the hard-and-fast rule: each definition
must come from an example on a certain card in front of him.
So, the writing of a dictionary was not a task of inventing meanings of words, but a task of recording their
meanings. The writer of a dictionary was a historian, not a law maker.
As time develops, the way of producing dictionaries has greatly changed. Nowadays, we can use online dictionaries too. When choosing our words in speaking or writing, we can be guided by the dictionary. However, we cannot be controlled by it, because new situations, new experiences, new inventions, and new feelings, are
always pushing us to give new uses to old words.
1 ．Why did dictionary writers read important books
A ．To know more about the period. B ．To collect words and their uses.
C ．To understand different subjects. D ．To learn to use interesting words.
2 ．Which shows the correct steps of how dictionaries were made in the past

推理判断题要求考生根据文章提供的线索和事实进行逻辑推理， 推测作者未提到的事实或某事发生的可 能性， 将间接论据连贯起来， 得出一个合理的结论。合理， 就是论推理有事实根据， 而不是读者主观臆断 的。推理判断题常以 infer ，imply ，suggest ，conclude, learn ，intend ，mean ，describe ，purpose 等词提问。 提问中往往含有表示推测的情态动词， 如 can，could，might, would 等和其他表示可能性的副词， 如probably，
most likely 等。
所谓推断就是从已知的事情中推测未知的事情。这里所说的未知是指文章或作者没有直接说明但已暗 示出来， 或者根据作者提供的信息， 可能引出的必然性结论。所以推断类题目尽管不能在文章中直接找到 答案， 但我们可以在文章中找到可供推论的依据。还有一个重要的技巧就是排除法的适当运用。很多错误 选项的排除要靠我们对于文章事实和细节的准确把握。因此我们也要相应加强对于文章事实细节的训练。
常见的技巧方法一般有如下几类：
方法：在理解原文表面信息的基础上，做出判断和推理。得出其隐含意义和深层意思。考查对阅读材料 全篇的逻辑关系的理解，对文章各段，各句之间的逻辑关系的理解能力。依据文章事实，得出得出符合逻 辑的结论。 陷阱： ①文章直接言明的内容，这不是推断出来的（凡是推断题一定不选原文信息的同义表述） ② 注意干扰项与文章内容有细微区别。（推理判断一定要合情合理，有理有据，依据事实，切不可主观臆断） ③察言观色，依据作者所陈述的细节、事实以及作者的措词、态度和语气，找出能够表露作者思想 倾向和感彩的词句，然后利用自己已获得的相关知识进行推理判断，从而得出符合逻辑的结论。
方法 1 逻辑推理法
逻辑推理法，即根据上下文及其相互间的关系，对文章片段或全文进行深层理解来解答题目。常以时 间关系、条件关系、因果关系、比较关系、转折关系等作为推理根据， 有时甚至还得联系作者的意图、态
度等弦外之音。主要考查学生对文章细节的理解和逻辑思维的推断能力。
The best way to learn English is to have a good environment. Take notes in English, put English books around your room, listen to English radios, watch English news, movies and TV programs. Speak English with your
friends whenever you can. The more English materials that you have around you, the faster you will learn it.

Around the world, people have different ideas about what good manners are.
When you go to restaurants in different parts of the world, it’s important to know the right and wrong things to do. For example, in China, it’s OK to make a lot of noise in a restaurant. In fact, if a restaurant isn’t noisy or lively, you may think there’s something wrong with it. However, in many western countries, restaurants are quiet
places. If a table is too loud, other people in the restaurant might even complain to the owner of the restaurant.
Paying the bill is also different from country to country. In China, one person usually pays for everybody. In western countries, one person pays when he or she is entertaining clients, but when friends eat together, they usually share the cost. This is called “Going Dutch”. Also, when Westerners pay the bill, they usually leave some money for the waiter. This is called “leaving a tip”. Leaving a tip is thought to be polite. In the US, people are expected to tip between 15%and 20%of the bill, which is decided by how good the service is. Good waiters can
make a lot of money!
Different countries have different customs. When you travel to another country, please follow its customs, just
as the saying goes “When in Rome, do as the Romans do.”

Step2：分析文章每段的段落大意：第一段先总的来说人们对于好的礼仪有着不同的观点；第二段和第三段 分别讲西方国家和中国在超市或饭店里的一些现象以及人们付钱的不同；第四段总结全文，当我们去别的
国家旅游的时候要入乡随俗。
Step3：定位答案：结合每段的段落大意可知，全篇文章属于总-分-总的结构，确定答案为 A。

Come on, Amy. You must TRY HARDER. Amy told herself silently. She was in her class’ Second-Day-of-School Game with her teammates, whom she only met yesterday. This was her first chance to
make new friends, and she was nervous.
So far Amy hadn’t given any useful suggestions—after all, she was totally new to this town. Luckily, no one
seemed to care about it. This relaxed her a lot.
Since the Blue Team left the park, they had worked out the first two clues (线索) and had been to the post
office. Now they were in front of the cinema.
Henry was reading aloud the third clue: Go to our town founder’s last resting place.
I know THIS ONE! Amy thought, excited.
“To the cemetery (墓地)” Cindy said.
“No, wait!” Amy said. “I’ve read about it. The founder was buried near the library.”
“Wow. I’ve walked by every day,” Tyler said. “Never knew that!”
“Good job! That will save valuable time, ” Cindy smiled at Amy.
“We still need to hurry,” Tyler reminded, pointing to the Yellow Team coming near.
“I know a shortcut!” Henry suggested. “Follow me!” No one moved.
“No, seriously,” Henry said. “You know I’m always running late. I know every shortcut in town.” The others
finally agreed.
A few sharp turns, and they were there! This time Amy read the clue aloud: Now go to the place where the
football is running around!
“The football stadium!” They called out together and started to run …
Now they’d got the final clue: Look where you’ve been, see where you are. Use your map wisely and
you’ll be a star!
Looking closely at the map, everyone thought hard.
“Aha! A star!” Cindy suddenly broke the silence. She quickly took out a pencil.
As they watched her drawing lines on the map, everyone understood.
They began running back to where they started. They were closer and closer, and finally crossed the finish
line-just one step behind the Red Team!
“So…close…” Tyler made a face, and they all laughed together.
“Nice job, new girl,” Cindy gave Amy a high-five.
“That was really fun,” said Henry. “I hope we’ll be on the same team soon.”
“Me, too,” Amy agreed, smiling.

Plunk! I dropped another pecan (山核桃) into my basket. Then a gentle autumn wind blew some more off the
tree. I ran to pick them up. Whew! Pecan picking was hard. My basket was only half full.
I was visiting my grandpa’s farm in Kansas, and Grandpa sent me into the woods to pick up pecans for us to
enjoy later. I wasn’t about to let him down.
Then something caught my eye: a squirrel picked up a pecan, climbed up a tree and disappeared into a large hole. A moment later, the squirrel climbed down to the ground to pick another pecan. Once again, he took the
pecan back to his secret hiding place inside the hollow (洞) of the tree.
Not so secret anymore, I thought. I ran over to the tree and found the hollow was filled with sweet pecans. They were right there for the taking. This was my chance. Handful by handful, I took all the pecans from the
hollow. Now the basket was full!
I was so proud of myself. I couldn’t wait to show Grandpa all of the pecans I’d collected.
“Look, Grandpa,” I shouted, “look at all of the pecans I found!”
Grandpa took a look at my basket. “Well, well, how did you find so many, Jimmy ” I told him how I’d
followed the squirrel and taken the pecans from his hiding place. Grandpa congratulated me on finding out
something about the squirrel’s habits. Then he did something that surprised me. He handed the basket back to me
and put his arm gently around my shoulders.
“That squirrel worked very hard to collect his winter food,” he said. “Now that all of his pecans are gone,
don’t you think that little squirrel will be very hungry when it gets cold ”
“I didn’t think about that,” I said.
“I know,” Grandpa said. “But a good man should never take advantage of someone else’s hard work, even
the squirrel’s.”

2023. He has been recognized as the oldest male to surf（冲浪） by the Guinness World Records.
But maybe he will just keep surfing. “I think it would be interesting to try to surf until I’m 100,” Sano said. “I think I take better care of myself when I have dreams like this. Even now, I take better care of myself than I did
before.”
Sano said he got the idea to try surfing from a worker at his local bank. The man’s skin was always dark and he did not look like a usual worker. His secret to keep healthy and energetic, he said, was surfing. So, Sano found
a teacher.
Sano gets out most weekends on the black-sand beach. “I don’t consider myself an old man,” he said in his wet suit, board standing next to him. “I have never thought of myself as an old person. I always feel that I can still
move forward. I can still do it. I can still enjoy it.”
Several young students who also work with Sano’s surf teacher talked about Sano.
“I think age doesn’t matter in surfing,” a 12-year-old surfer said.

“To be honest, I was surprised by his age,” said Sano’s surfing teacher. “I was worried that he would get
hurt. I did not know how fit he was.”
Sano still works 9-to-5 at his job. Surfing helps make him less stressed. “People often say that surfing is life
itself,” he said. “I think it is true.”

Warming temperatures and shorter winters might sound like the end of snow days. However, rising
temperatures may actually cause snowstorms to dump more snow, says David Robinson. He is a professor at a
university in New Jersey. He studies climate (气候) change.
Temperature change is one of the greatest in Earth’s climate change over a long period of time. It can happen naturally or because of human activities, such as burning gas and coal. Burning these fuels produces carbon dioxide ( 二氧化碳) and other pollutants into the atmosphere, which hold heat in the atmosphere, leading to
warmer global temperatures over time.
But how could warmer temperatures lead to more snow To get snow, you need moisture (水汽) and freezing temperatures (0℃ or less), says Robinson. Without moisture in the air, there is no precipitation (rain or snow). Robinson says there are signs that snowstorms are becoming stronger. This is because of this connection between
moisture and precipitation.
“The warmer the air becomes, the more moisture it holds. So, if it’s warming and still cold enough to snow,
you can get more snow,” Robinson says.
Of the 10 biggest snowfalls in D ．C ． region, five happened in the past 25 years, according to the NWS. During that same time period, average winter temperatures in D ．C ． increased. In 1996, the average winter
temperature was 1.8℃. In 2020, it was 6℃ .
Weather experts suggest that rising temperatures may make winter shorter and less cold. But for now, the snow is still falling. One day, winter might not have any days below the freezing temperature. Once temperatures
stay above freezing, snowstorms become rain. Until then, we might continue to see strong storms.
According to Robinson, that time could come sooner than we think. He says, “When we look back, years
from now, we may see that this was the breaking point.”
1 ．What is paragraph 2 mainly about
A ．How Earth’s climate changes. B ．What causes rising temperatures.
C ．What produces carbon dioxide. D ．How pollution influences climate.
2 ．What will the warming temperatures cause according to the text
A ．Less coal. B ．Drier weather.
C ．Longer winters. D ．Stronger snowstorms.
3 ．What is the purpose of paragraph 5
A ．To introduce D ．C .
B ．To report the biggest 10 snowstorms.
C ．To support Robinson’s ideas.
D ．To show the increase of temperatures.
4 ．What does Robinson think of the future warming temperatures
A ．Impossible. B ．Serious. C ．Meaningless. D ．Amazing.
5 ．Where is the text probably taken from
A ．A science magazine. B ．A story book.
C ．A science fiction. D ．A travel guide.
【答案】 1 ．B 2 ．D 3 ．C 4 ．B 5 ．A
【导语】本文主要讲了温度上升与更多的暴风雪是否有关系的问题。
1 ．主旨大意题。根据“Burning these fuels produces carbon dioxide (二氧化碳) and other pollutants into the atmosphere, which hold heat in the atmosphere, leading to warmer global temperatures over time.”可知，第二段
主要介绍了导致气温上升的原因。故选 B。
2．推理判断题。根据“Robinson says there are signs that snowstorms are becoming stronger. This is because of this
connection between moisture and precipitation.”可知，变暖的温度会导致更强的暴风雪。故选 D。

（2023·山东济南 · 统考中考真题）
A garden is much more than just creating a beautiful environment. It can be a way to save or even make money and, more than that, it can be a place where you can express yourself. For me, it’s a bit of all these things. I know it may sound strange for a 13-year-old girl to be interested in gardening, but I have always been and I would
love to make a career (职业) out of it.
I have learned many things these past few years. I have been reading about and doing some gardening. So, here is my top advice about gardening. First, you do not need to spend a lot of money to have a beautiful garden. Some of the gardens that I think are the prettiest are just lines of plants. There aren’t many garden decorations (装 饰) and pathways. It’s just beautiful plants with fruits and vegetables. We can also find many useful things for free, from pieces of old wood to old pots and pans. Or, we can build things for free from materials that other people
have thrown away.
If you just remember that planting what is more than you need will take the stress away of losing some
plants, you will save yourself a lot of worry, too. Besides, you need to ask yourself which plants produce enough food to make them worth growing. I actually sat down and did the maths on that one this spring. It amazed me what some plants were worth. A tomato, for example, can produce 50- 150 worth of fruit. It takes up a lot of space but that’s a lot of money coming out of a 50-pence seed (种子)! So if I had known earlier what each plant
could save us, I would have told my parents to fill our garden with different plants.
And finally, gardening doesn’t have to be all or nothing. But then I guess that’s more of a personality weakness than anything. I struggle with doing things a little at a time. Once I decide to do something, I usually devote every waking hour to it for a little while and then get tired. So it’s okay to just have one tomato plant, and
it’s okay to have an off year. It will save you a lot of stress.
1 ．What does the writer want to tell us about gardening in paragraph 1
A ．The gardeners can make much money.
B ．It’s just about creating a beautiful place.
C ．The most important is to express yourself.
D ．It means different things to different people.
2 ．How would the writer describe her favorite garden
A ．Simple. B ．Expensive. C ．Magic. D ．Creative.
3 ．What advice does the writer give us about gardening
A ．Use what we can find around us. B ．Try to make a career out of it.
C ．Ask other gardeners to give help. D ．Spend as much time as we can.
4 ．What can we learn about the writer’s gardening experience
A ．She wants to grow everything.
B ．She did everything right.
C ．She has a lot of fun in doing it.
D ．She needs to work harder.
5 ．What does the underlined word “devote” mean in the last paragraph
A ．Waste. B ．Spend. C ．Change. D ．Count.
【答案】 1 ．D 2 ．A 3 ．A 4 ．C 5 ．B

（2023·江苏徐州 · 中考真题）
You stand in a garden. A low noise reaches your ears. You see a small insect flying near your head. You turn
to look, and it flies out of sight. There it is again! You move slowly. You can see yellow and black stripes on it.
Is it a bee It lands on a flower, and you take a closer look.
Bees fold(折叠) their wings onto their backs when they stop flying. But this insect’s wings reach out like a
fly’s. That’s because it is a fly—a flower fly.
Many flower flies look like bees. This helps keep them safe from animals that may want to eat them. Insects with yellow and black stripes usually have stingers(刺). Insect eaters, such as some birds and frogs, need to get stung only once to know that stripes mean trouble. Flower flies can’t sting, but insect eaters see the stripes and
leave the flies alone.
Flower flies spend most of their time looking for food. Like bees, flower flies eat pollen(花粉) and nectar(花 蜜). This makes them easy to find in a garden full of flowers. They are helpful garden insects just like bees. Adult
flower flies move pollen from one flower to another, which helps some flowers grow into fruit.
Flower flies can stay in one place while flying. Most insects move forward when they fly. But flower flies
can twist their wings, much like hummingbirds do. Twisting keeps them in one place, so they can remain over
flowers, leaves, or even you!
1 ．In which part of a magazine can we probably see this passage
A ．Nature. B ．Culture. C ．Fashion. D ．Health.
2 ．In which way are bees and flower flies different
A ．The food that they eat. B ．The colour of their stripes.
C ．The way they help garden flowers grow. D ．The shape of wings when they stop flying.
3 ．What does the underlined phrase “leave the flies alone” in Paragraph 4 mean
A ．Make friends with the flies. B ．Eat the flies up.
C ．Keep away from the flies. D ．Invite the flies in.
4 ．What might the writer of the passage agree with
A ．People usually prefer bees to flower flies.
B ．People sometimes mistake flower flies for bees.
C ．People should stop birds eating bees and flower flies.
D ．People should have beautiful gardens in their neighbourhood.
【答案】 1 ．A 2 ．D 3 ．C 4 ．B
【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了花蝇的外观、生理构造及生活习性等。
1 ．推理判断题。通读全文可知，本文主要介绍了花蝇的相关知识，应该在杂志的“ 自然”部分看到此文章。
故选 A。
2．细节理解题。根据“Bees fold(折叠) their wings onto their backs when they stop flying. But this insect’s wings reach out like a fly’s. That’s because it is a fly—a flower fly.”可知，蜜蜂停止飞行时把翅膀叠在背上，但花蝇
的翅膀却是伸出来。故两者的不同之处在于停止飞行时翅膀的形状。故选 D。
3．词句猜测题。根据“Insect eaters, such as some birds and frogs, need to get stung only once to know that stripes mean trouble. Flower flies can’t sting, but insect eaters see the stripes and leave the flies alone.”可知，带有黄色 和黑色条纹的昆虫通常有刺， 花蝇身上有黄黑条纹， 虽然它身上没有刺， 但是一些以昆虫为食的动物看到
花蝇身上的条纹就会远离花蝇，故划线部分意为“远离花蝇” 。故选 C。
4．推理判断题。根据“Is it a bee It lands on a flower, and you take a closer look.”及“Many flower flies look like
bees.”可知，花蝇的外观和生活习性与蜜蜂有些相似，所以人们有时会把花蝇误认为蜜蜂。故选 B。
（2023·北京 · 统考中考真题）
When considering the kind of experience that makes life better, most people first think that happiness depends on experiencing pleasure: good food, good jobs, all the comforts that money can buy. If we couldn’t have
these, we might as well sit in front of the television on a quiet evening.
Pleasure is an important part of the quality of life, but by itself it doesn’t bring happiness. When people think further about what makes a worthy life, they tend ( 倾 向于) to move beyond pleasant memories and begin to remember other events, other experiences that overlap ( 有重叠) pleasurable ones but fall into a group with a separate name: enjoyment. Enjoyable events take place when people have not only satisfied a need or met some
earlier expectation, but also achieved something unexpected.
Enjoyment is characterized by a sense of curiosity, of achievement. Playing a tennis game that improves one’s ability is enjoyable, as is reading a book that shows things in a new light, as is having a conversation that leads us to express ideas we didn’t know we had. None of these experiences may be especially pleasurable when they are taking place, but when we think back on them afterwards, we would say, “That really was fun” and wish
they would happen again. After an enjoyable event we know that we have changed, and grown.
Experiences that give pleasure can also give enjoyment, but the two feelings are quite different. For example, everybody takes pleasure in eating. However, to enjoys food is more difficult — you have to pay enough attention to a meal, so as to sense and tell its various tastes. As this example suggests, we can experience pleasure without any psychic energy, while enjoyment happens only as a result of full attention. A person can feel pleasure without any effort, as long as certain parts in his brain are stimulated (刺激). But it’s impossible to enjoy a tennis game or a book without full attention. It’s for this reason that pleasure does not last long, nor does it make us grow.
Growth requires full attention to goals that are new, that are relatively challenging.
Without enjoyment, life will go on, and it can even be pleasant. But it depends heavily on luck and the external (外部的) environment. To achieve personal control over the quality of experience, however, we need to
learn how to build enjoyment into what happens day in, day out.
1 ．You will most probably experience enjoyment when you .
A ．buy expensive shoes B ．order a delicious meal
C ．talk with friends for new ideas D ．sit quietly in front of a television
2 ．What do you know about pleasure and enjoyment from the passage
A ．Enjoyment grows out of pleasure.
B ．Pleasure and enjoyment come hand in hand.
C ．Pleasurable experiences are part of enjoyable ones.
D ．Some experiences provide both pleasure and enjoyment.
3 ．The words “psychic energy” in Paragraph 4 are closest in meaning to .
A ．attention B ．interest C ．ability D ．knowledge
4 ．The writer probably agrees that .
A ．feeling pleasure stops people from achieving growth
B ．feeling enjoyment comes with achieving growth
C ．a worthy life depends on luck and environment
D ．pleasure is the key to a happy and worthy life
【答案】 1 ．C 2 ．D 3 ．A 4 ．B
【导语】本文主要讲述了快乐和享受的联系和对比。
1 ．推理判断题。根据“Playing a tennis game that improves one’s ability is enjoyable, as is reading a book that shows things in a new light, as is having a conversation that leads us to express ideas we didn’t know we had.” 可 知打一场能提高一个人能力的网球是令人愉快的， 就像读一本从新的角度看待事物的书一样， 就像进行一 场能让我们表达自己不知道自己拥有的想法的谈话一样。由此推出当你和朋友谈论新想法时， 你很可能会
体验到乐趣。故选 C。
2 ．细节理解题。根据“Experiences that give pleasure can also give enjoyment, but the two feelings are quite
different.”可知有些经历既能带来愉悦，又能带来享受。故选 D。
3 ．词义猜测题。根据“As this example suggests, we can experience pleasure without any psychic energy, while enjoyment happens only as a result of full attention.”可知正如这个例子所表明的， 我们可以在没有任何精神能 量的情况下体验快乐， 而享受只有在全神贯注的情况下才会发生。psychic energy 与 attention 意思相近。故
选 A。
4．观点态度题。根据“Enjoyment is characterized by a sense of curiosity, of achievement.”以及“Growth requires full attention to goals that are new, that are relatively challenging.”可知作者会赞成“感到快乐与得到成长是相辅
相成的”这一观点。故选 B。

People believe that every word has its correct meaning(s). When we are not sure, we usually check online, or
turn to our teachers or dictionaries. But do you know how dictionaries were made in the past
Dictionary writers first read the important books of the period or the subject that the dictionary was about. As they read, they copied necessary information on cards: interesting words, common words—both in their daily uses and unusual uses, and also the sentences where they were used. That is to say, the words, along with the uses of each word, were collected. For a really big dictionary, millions of such cards were collected. This task could last for years. As the cards were collected, they were put in alphabetical order (A—Z). When this was done, there
would be several hundred cards for each single word.
Then, to define ( 定义) a word, the dictionary writer placed its hundreds of cards before him. He read the
cards closely, threw away some, read the rest again, and divided up the cards according to what he thought were
the common uses of the word. Finally, he wrote the definitions, following the hard-and-fast rule: each definition
must come from an example on a certain card in front of him.
So, the writing of a dictionary was not a task of inventing meanings of words, but a task of recording their
meanings. The writer of a dictionary was a historian, not a law maker.
As time develops, the way of producing dictionaries has greatly changed. Nowadays, we can use online dictionaries too. When choosing our words in speaking or writing, we can be guided by the dictionary. However, we cannot be controlled by it, because new situations, new experiences, new inventions, and new feelings, are
always pushing us to give new uses to old words.
1 ．Why did dictionary writers read important books
A ．To know more about the period. B ．To collect words and their uses.
C ．To understand different subjects. D ．To learn to use interesting words.
2 ．Which shows the correct steps of how dictionaries were made in the past
A . ①-③-④-② B . ①-②-④-③ C . ③-④-②-① D . ③-①-④-②
3 ．What can we learn from the passage about dictionary writing in the past
A ．It should be done by historians. B ．It was a task of inventing and recording.
C ．It was long-time hard work. D ．It had to use the law-making rules.
4 ．What does the writer advise us to do when we choose words in communication
A ．Be open to the new uses of words. B ．Follow the dictionary strictly.
C ．Use online dictionaries instead. D ．Try to create new words.
【答案】 1 ．B 2 ．D 3 ．C 4 ．A
【导语】本文主要介绍了过去词典是如何制作的。
1 ．推理判断题。根据“As they read, they copied necessary information on cards: interesting words, common words—both in their daily uses and unusual uses, and also the sentences where they were used. That is to say, the words, along with the uses of each word, were collected.”（当他们阅读时，他们把必要的信息抄写在卡片上： 有趣的单词， 常见的单词——包括日常使用和不常用的单词， 以及使用这些单词的句子。也就是说， 这些
单词以及每个单词的用法都被收集了起来。） 可推知词典编纂者要读重要的书籍是为了收集单词及其用法，
故选 B。
2 ．细节理解题。根据“As they read, they copied necessary information on cards: interesting words, common words-both in their daily uses and unusual uses, and also the sentences where they were used.” 、 “As the cards were collected, they were put in alphabetical order (A—Z). ”、“Then, to define (定义) a word, the dictionary writer placed its hundreds of cards before him. He read the cards closely, threw away some, read the rest again, and divided up the cards according to what he thought were the common uses of the word.”、 “Finally, he wrote the definitions, following the hard-and-fast rule: each definition must come from an example on a certain card in front of him.”可知， 过去制作字典首先把有趣的单词， 日常使用和不寻常使用的常见单词， 以及使用它们的句子 记在卡片上；然后收集卡片时，按字母顺序（A-Z）排列；其次筛选卡片，根据词典编纂者认为的单词的 常用用法将卡片分开；最后是按照硬性规定写下了定义，每个定义都必须来自他面前某张卡片上的一个例
子。所以正确的步骤是③-①-④-②。故选 D。
3 ．推理判断题。根据“For a really big dictionary, millions of such cards were collected.”（对于一本真正的大
字典来说，收集了数百万张这样的卡片。）可知过去编纂词典是一项长期艰苦的工作。故选 C。
4 ．细节理解题。根据“However, we cannot be controlled by it, because new situations, new experiences, new inventions, and new feelings, are always pushing us to give new uses to old words.”可知作者建议大家在使用词 典时不能被它所控制， 因为新的情况、新的经历、新的发明和新的感受总是在推动我们对旧词赋予新的用
途，也就是接受词汇的新用法。故选 A。

At the age of 73, Chen Shaoqin from Beijing has shown the world how life should be lived.
Although she only had a middle school education, Chen began studying English at the age of 40 and passed a college entrance exam, making herself from a factory worker to a white-collar clerk in an international trade company. Chen continued to study art after retirement( 退休) and finally became an art guide at the age of 67.
Over the past five years, she has guided visitors at an art center for three days a week, totaling 3,500 hours.
From an old lady who knew nothing about modern art to a volunteer guide, Chen’s hard work and love for learning have encouraged many people. She said that she must continue to learn because she did not understand that. As a guide, she is able to attend professional training courses and has the chances to learn from artists and
curators (馆长), which gives her encouragement to continue.
Chen has guided many exhibitions over the years, including those of famous artists like Zeng Fanzhi, Xu Bing, Qiu Zhijie and Pablo Picasso. She believes that every tour is a beautiful journey and a new chance to learn and be moved. Her effort of learning and her ability to mix many subjects have made her an excellent guide. After turning 73 this year, she believes that the width of one’s life can be expanded (扩展) through self-improvement
