期末复习之七选五16篇
（22-23高一下·湖北·期末）Whenever we make a choice, whether it’s as big as getting married or as small as an argument with a friend, we are driven by our values. Values tend to be single-word concepts like freedom, equality, selflessness, honesty. 1 They’re a kind of moral GPS we can use to navigate through life. If you know your values, you have directions that point you toward the people and actions and habits that are best for you.
One way to recognize the values by which you live is look at how you spend your money. 2 Do you really spend your money wisely we often have a strange perspective on what’s “worth it”, which doesn’t quite make sense if you reflect on it later.
Pay attention to who you talk to, what you watch, and what you do with your time. 3 If you’re just going from one day to the next without questioning your values, you’ll be swayed by what everyone else — from your family to marketing professionals — wants you to think. A thought comes into my mind and I ask myself: Does this fit my chosen values or those that others have selected for me
4 If you’re an overworked parent who wants to make your kids your priority, make friends with other parents who hold the same idea, so you can exchange support and advice.
Values make it easier for you to surround yourself with the right people, make tough career choices, use your time more wisely, and focus your attention where it really matters to you. 5
A．All of these push values and beliefs.
B．Is your precious time wasted or well spent
C．Your bills actually reflect what matters most to you.
D．That might sound rather abstract, but these values are really practical.
E．Who you surround yourself with helps you stick to your values and achieve your goals.
F．Without them we are swept away by outside voice instead of following our inner voice.
G．When we drive through a new area, we wander aimlessly if we don’t know the directions.
（22-23高一下·湖南邵阳·期末）Some people think only school children do not agree with their parents. However, it is not true. 6 If it’s hard for you to communicate with your parents, don’t worry about it. Here is some advice for you to bridge the generation gap (消除代沟).
Don’t argue with your parents. 7 Your parents possibly won’t consider your ideas if you are shouting at them. And you can’t express yourself well if you are angry. Go to some place to cool off. Make sure you understand why you are unhappy. Then think about what you want to say to your parents. If you don’t think you can speak to them at the moment, try writing a letter.
Try to reach a compromise (和解). 8 You can keep your disagreement and try your best to accept each other. Michael’s mother didn’t agree with him about buying a motorcycle. They argued over it. But they finally came to a compromise. Michael bought the motorcycle, but only drove it on certain days. Of course, your parents might refuse to compromise on something. In these situations, it is especially important to show love and respect to them. 9
Talk about your values. The values of your parents are probably different from those of your own. Tell your parents what you care about, and why. 10
A good relationship with your parents can make you a better and happier person. It is worth having a try.
A．Try to keep away from your parents.

（22-23高一下·山东青岛·期末）An 18-year-girl Kayla Perkins explains what is in her bedroom, “I throw something on the floor and I know right where it is.” However, her parents, Steve and Deborah Perkins, don’t think so. Even Kayla admits that, at the worst, her room is a mess.
Most families at some point have at least one child whose room looks like a landfill. 11 Dirty clothes pile up; dirty dishes get lost in the mess and smell bad; homework is lost; and valuable things are ruined.
Some parents let it go, believing that a bedroom is private space for children to manage as they wish. 12 What doesn’t work, parenting experts say, is constant lectures, verbal threats or getting very angry.
Mrs. Perkins says they picked up all the clothes on Kayla’s floor and hid them. They cleaned everything up. When Kayla came back to a bare bedroom, there was screaming and shouting. “How can I live without my clothes ” Mrs. Perkins asked Kayla to earn her clothes back by doing housework. 13
14 For example, since Jessica, the 14-year-old daughter wasn’t bothered by the dirty clothes all over her floor, the whole family started using her room as a place to store dirty clothes. Her attitude changed after her family did that. By the time she gave in and cleaned up her room a few days later, even she was laughing.

（22-23高一下·山东烟台·期末）Turn FOMO into JOMO
It’s weekend. You friends are throwing a party while you stay in. Then suddenly you begin to imagine the fun your friends are having in your absence. 16 You can’t help turning to social media to find out. If so, chances are that you are suffering FOMO — the fear of missing out. You have a great desire to stay connected with what others are doing.
17 They don’t feel the need to attend everything. Instead, they find comfort in sticking to their own plans. They focus not on what they lack but on what they have. Rather than feeling FOMO, such people enjoy JOMO — the joy of missing out. JOMO is the emotionally intelligent solution to FOMO. And it is the secret to finding happiness. Then how can we turn FOMO into JOMO
Enjoy your own company (陪伴). 18 It means abandoning (放弃) the need to catch up, keep up and measure up in exchange for a chance to engage in your own life. Watching movies, getting a workout or taking up a new hobby are all fun ways to spend your time.
Keep a journal. If you always post the fun things you do on social media, you may find yourself caring too much about whether people are validating (确认) your experiences online. To make a change, you might as well keep a personal journal on paper. 19 And this can also help keep your secrets to yourself.
Switch off. We usually keep our devices on in case someone needs to reach us. But when your minds are always on your phone, you simply cannot be present. You are very likely to be distracted and unaware of what
matters to you. So try to reduce your screen time and live in the moment. 20

B．FOMO signals a lack of engagement.
C．And your initial calm turns into anxiety.
D．JOMO is the enjoyment of time spent alone.

G．Thus you can turn your focus from public attention to private appreciation.
（22-23高一下·湖北·期末）Everyone knows that early to bed and early to rise is good for your health, but the reality is that getting up late is the norm for many of us. 21 For this, we specially recommend a “painless early rise” guideline.
Seek out as much natural light as possible. 22 . Jennifer Martin, president of the board of directors for the American Academy of Sleep Medicine, agrees with it firstly. That’s because natural light holds back melatonin, a chemical that plays an important role in our bodies. “The sun is the driver of our internal clock,” she says.
23 . For some people like those who need to drive long distances, those first few days of being tired from switching to a new schedule aren’t safe. In that case, Martin recommends gradually easing into the early-bird life. “What I’ll suggest to people is to shift half an hour, wait a few days, shift another half an hour, wait a few days, and then shift another half an hour,” she says.
Hold on even on weekends. Becoming a morning person is a seven-day-a-week job. Decide what time you’re going to wake up every day. 24 .
Plan something to look forward to. To force you out of bed, Martin suggests treating yourself to something special you can enjoy first. 25 . “Now is the time to go buy your favorite coffee or pick up some cakes to have when your alarm goes off at 5 am,” she says.
A．Ease in gradually
B．And stick to it without exception
C．You’re not worrying if you think of that
D．Adjust yourself to the schedule in the evenings
E．The secret to becoming a morning person is exposure to natural light
F．It takes a lot of willpower to get out of bed early on a cold winter’s day
G．Experts advise to cut back on how much exposure to bright light you’re getting

（22-23高一下·福建厦门·期末）We welcomed a daughter into the world yesterday. One day, when. she needs financial advice, here’s what I’ll tell her.
It is easy to assume that wealth and poverty (贫困) are caused by the choices we make, but chance plays a bigger role than most people want to admit. 41 But realize not all success is due to hard work, and not all poverty is due to laziness. Keep this in mind when judging people, including yourself.
Everything has a price. The price of a busy job is time away from friends and family. The price of spoiling (宠溺) kids is their sheltered life. Most of those prices are hidden. 42 Accepting this, you’ll view things like time and relationships as valuable as cash.
I believe the highest benefit of money is the ability to control your time. Being able to do what you want, when you want, where you want, with whom you want, for as long as you want, provides a lasting happiness greater than any fancy things can offer. 43 Having enough savings to give you time and options never gets old.
44 You have more control over it than your income. The person who makes $50,000 but only needs $40,000 to be happy is richer than the person who makes $150,000 but needs $151,000 to be happy.
As Napoleon defined, a military talent is the person “who can do the average thing when everyone else is losing his mind”. 45 You don’t need to do amazing things to end up OK. Avoiding terrible mistakes is more powerful than any fancy finance tips.
A．We’re not going to spoil you.
B．Managing money is the same.
C．I want you to believe in the values of hard work.
D．Learning how to live with less is very important.
E．You just have to not mess up for long periods of time.
F．The excitement of having fancy things wears off quickly.
G．They’re often worth paying, but never ignore that they are true costs.

（22-23高一下·福建三明·期末）Although holidays only lasts a few days each year, many of us spend months planning for it. But as enjoyable as all the parties and festivities might be, many people find they feel a bit burnt-out once the holidays have come and gone. 51 . Here’s why this happens and what you can do to recover after the holidays are over.
Many of us are exposed to various stressors over a very short period of time throughout the holiday season-whether it’s queuing for presents, sitting in traffic on the way to visit friends or family, or even worrying about money. As soon as your brain senses a stressor, it stirs your sympatheticnervous system (交感神经系统). When the sympathetic nervous system is activated, the body produces adrenaline (肾上腺素) and begins working harder. 52 .
One way to reduce the negative impact of stress is to experience positive emotions. Recalling can help you get a new view on your experiences, which helps you see your life in a more balanced way. 53 . Discuss them with family members and friends. The more effort you put into this activity, the better your results.
54 . Before going to bed, try to vividly imagine four positive events that could happen to you the next day. They might be as simple as receiving a text from someone you care about. Then as soon as you are ready, go to bed. This technique will help you get a good night’s sleep-sleep is important for helping you to recover from burnout.
55 , remembering why we choose to celebrate with friends and family can help us overcome any stress and burnout that we may now be experiencing.
A．While holidays are a time of joy

C．The other way is to get a good night’s sleep

G．You may experience these changes like feeling more sweaty or having a pounding chest
（22-23高一下·北京朝阳·期末）Nicholas Epley, a behavioural scientist, and I conducted a series of studies and concluded that kind acts as simple as buying a cup of coffee for someone can promote a person’s happiness. Everyday life affords many opportunities for such actions, yet people do not always catch them. 56
We firstly studied acts of kindness done for familiar people such as friends, classmates or family. 57 For instance, in one experiment, people wrote notes to friends and family “just because”. In another, they gave cupcakes away to workmates. Across these experiments, we asked both the person performing a kind act and the one receiving it to fill out questionnaires (问卷).
Across our studies, several strong patterns appeared. For one, both performers and receivers of the acts of kindness were in more positive moods than normal after these kind acts. 58 The receivers felt significantly better than the kind actors expected. The receivers also reliably rated these acts as “bigger” than the people performing them did.
59 In one experiment, participants at an ice-skating rink (溜冰场) in a public park gave away hot chocolate to people they didn’t know on a cold winter day. Again, the experience was more positive than the performers expected for the receivers. Although the people giving out the hot chocolate saw the act as relatively small, it really mattered to the receivers.
These findings suggest that what might seem small when we are deciding whether or not to do something nice for someone else could matter a great deal to the person we do it for, These warm acts can improve our own emotional health and brighten the day of another person. 60
A．So why not choose kindness when we can
B．For another, it was clear that performers undervalued their impacts.
C．From one situation to the next, the specific acts of kindness differed.
D．We found that participants didn’t realize their positive impacts on strangers as well.
E．Our research also revealed one reason why people may not realize their actions’ impacts.
F．We compared the performers’ expectation of the receivers’ moods with their actual experiences.
G．It is because people performing kind acts undervalue how much receivers value their behaviour.
（22-23高一下·福建福州·期末）Space is where our future is — trips to the Moon, Mars and beyond. Most people would think that apart from comets (彗星) and stars, there is little else out there. 61 Scientists are now concerned that if we don’t clean it up, we may all be in great danger.
The first piece of space junk was created in the year of 1964, when the American satellite Vanguard I stopped operating. 62 However, since it kept orbiting around the Earth without any results, scientists became increasingly comfortable abandoning things that no longer served any useful purpose in space.
63 The junk varies from tiny pieces of paint chipped off rockets to cameras, huge fuel tanks, and even odd items like the million-dollar tool kit that astronaut Heidemarie Stefanyshyn Piper lost during a spacewalk.
The major problem with the space trash is that it may hit working satellites and damage travelling spaceship. In addition to this, many pieces of junk may crash with each other and break into pieces which fall back to the Earth. 64 Ground stations have been built to monitor larger pieces of space trash to prevent them from crashing into working satellites or space shuttles. 65 They will stop littering in space and to clean up the trash already there.
A．It lost its connection with the ground centre.
B．To avoid this, scientists have invented several ways for clearing the sky.
C．The junk floats slowly around the Earth.
D．However, since our space journey started, we have left much trash in space.
E．It is said that there are now over 500,000 pieces of man-made trash orbiting the Earth at speeds of up to 17,500 miles per hour.
F．Future plans include a cooperative effort among many nations.
G．It hasn’t resulted in any serious problems up to now.
（22-23高一下·四川成都·期末）As schools around the country reopen after winter break, their students are being reminded of the lunch debt they’ve racked up this school year.
Congress ended the free-lunch-for-all program in June, reverting to a system in which low-income families had to fill out paperwork to qualify for aid based on their income. But some families have been left behind because they do not understand the application process. 66 For some kids, the debt can get so big that
schools stop giving them a full meal. 67 According to the national campaign No Kid Hungry, students who eat school breakfast have been shown to achieve 17.5% higher scores on standardized math tests.
68 The nonprofit Tusk Philanthropies’ Solving Hunger is funding four organizations focused on promoting policy change on free school meals. In another, Sarah Stusek recorded herself calling Mount Vernon Community School in a viral TikTok video to pay off the Virginia school’s nearly $1,700 lunch debt.
Some states choose to continue free-lunch-for-all programs, including Massachusetts, Nevada, Vermont and Pennsylvania. California, Maine and now Colorado are the only states with laws ensuring permanent universal meal programs for all children, regardless of parents’ income. 69
Results from a national survey shows 847 schools had amassed $19.2 million in lunch debt. Debt varies across the country. Across North Carolina, lunch debt exceeded $1 million as of Nov.1. 70 And in Georgia, a nonprofit called All For Lunch paid $130,000 to wipe the debt of several schools across several metro area counties in December.
A．Plenty of kids face going without school lunches or getting smaller.
B．Others are rejected because they do not qualify.
C．School meal prices are rising and families are struggling to pay rent and feed their children.
D．Universal school meals can promote academic achievement.
E．One Wisconsin school district surpassed $14,000 in school lunch debt by October.
F．Several community groups and even social media influencers are donating to help.
G．A few districts, including Chicago and New York City, also offer free meals to kids.
（22-23高一下·安徽合肥·期末）Movies and TV shows would have you believe that friendships just fall into place effortlessly, without much conflict. 71 By building a strong foundation for your friendship and working to reduce conflict, maintaining your relationships with friends will become a whole lot easier.
Be positive.
Focusing on the upside makes you a better friend. 72 If you’re someone who likes discussing emotional subjects, that’s okay, but remember to strike a balance and talk about more cheerful or lighthearted topics, too. Discussing something as simple as books or video games, or sharing funny or uplifting stories, is better for your friendships(and everyone’s moods).
Display interest in your friends.
73 When you don’t know what to talk about, it can be tempting to talk about yourself —but if you
only talk about yourself, your friends might get annoyed. Making an effort to learn about your friends shows them that you want to know about who they are, and helps you build a better relationship with them. Ask them open-ended questions about their lives and interests—it will go a long way!
Listen to them.
Listening is just as important as showing interest. 74 Give your friend your full attention, and make mental notes about the important things in their lives—like the names of their loved ones, things they like, and major things that have happened(or are happening) in their lives.
75
Every friend will have their own oddities and behaviors. While it’s important to solve friendship problems, sometimes a “problem” is so minor that it’s not worth starting a possible conflict over it— like if they’re always five minutes late. Plus, trying to change how your friend acts can be tiring for you both. Accepting your friend’s “good sides” and “bad sides” will make it easier to get along.
A．Respect your differences.
B．Your friends want to feel like you care about their lives..
C．Complaints about hopeless situations can wear your friends thin after a while
D．Reflect back what you heard by retelling what they said.
E．It’ll help you learn about your friends and support them when they need it.
F．In real life, though, friendship takes a lot of work and can be complicated sometimes!
G．Accept your friends as they are.
（22-23高一下·福建福州·期末）Reasons Why Literature Is So Important
Today, there are too many people who believe that literature is simply not important or undervalue its ability to stand the test of time and give us great knowledge. There is a stigma (耻辱) in society that implies one who is more drawn to science and math will somehow be more successful in life, and that one who is more excited about literature and other art forms will be bound to live a life of low-paid jobs and unsatisfying careers. 76
To me, however, literature serves as a gateway to learning of the past and increasing my knowledge and understanding of the world. Here are just a few reasons why literature is important.
Expanding horizons.
First and foremost, literature opens our eyes and makes us see more than just what the front door shows. 77 With this, we begin to learn, ask questions, and build our instincts (直觉). We expand our minds.
Appreciation of other cultures and beliefs.
Reading about history, anthropology (人类学) or religious studies provides a method of learning about cultures and beliefs other than our own. It allows us to understand and experience other living systems in other worlds. 78 We can learn, understand and appreciate it.
79
All kinds of literature, poems, essays, novels, or short stories, help us address human nature and conditions that affect all people. We learn that imperfection is not always bad and that normal can be boring. We learn that life must be lived to the fullest. We need literature in order to connect with our own mankind.
80 Any debate over this makes no sense. It provides growth, strengthens our minds, and gives us the ability to think outside the box.
A．Addressing mankind.
B．Better writing skills.
C．Literature is important and necessary.
D．It helps us understand the wide world surrounding us.
E．Many of us learn what critical thinking (批判性思维) is in our language arts classes.
F．We get personal views and understanding into the minds from the inside looking out.
G．Somewhere along the line, the world has come to think that literature is insignificant.

(行为科学家尼古拉斯·埃普利（Nicholas Epley）和我进行了一系列研究，得出的结论是，友善的行为就像为某人买一杯咖啡一样简单，可以提升一个人的幸福感。日常生活为这种行为提供了许多机会，然而人们并不总是能抓住它们。)”指出友善的行为可以提升一个人的幸福感，但是人们在日常生活中并不总是能抓住机会表现出友善，空处承接上文，指出起原因，G项“这是因为表现善良的人低估了接受者对他们行为的重视程度。”符合，故选G。
57．根据下文“For instance, in one experiment, people wrote notes to friends and family “just because”. In another, they gave cupcakes away to workmates.(例如，在一个实验中，人们给朋友和家人写便条“仅仅是因为”。在另一个实验中，他们把纸杯蛋糕送给同事。)”可知，实验过程中，不同的情况善行是不同的，C项“从一个情况到下一个情况，具体的善行不同。”符合，引起下文，故选C。
58．根据上文“Across our studies, several strong patterns appeared. For one, both performers and receivers of the acts of kindness were in more positive moods than normal after these kind acts.(在我们的研究中，出现了几种强烈的模式。一方面，善意行为的表现者和接受者在这些善意行
为之后都比正常情绪更加积极。)”中的For one可知，此处介绍了强烈模式中的一方面，空处应该是介绍另一方面，B项“另一方面，很明显表演者低估了他们的影响力。”符合，For one和For another相呼应，故选B。
59．下文“In one experiment, participants at an ice-skating rink (溜冰场) in a public park gave away hot chocolate to people they didn’t know on a cold winter day. Again, the experience was more positive than the performers expected for the receivers. Although the people giving out the hot chocolate saw the act as relatively small, it really mattered to the receivers.(在一个实验中，参与者在一个公园的溜冰场里，在一个寒冷的冬天给陌生人送热巧克力。再次，这种体验比执行者对接收者的期望更积极。虽然分发热巧克力的人认为这种行为相对较小，但是对于接受者来说却很重要。)”介绍实验发现参与者没有意识到他们对陌生人的积极影响，D项“我们发现参与者也没有意识到他们对陌生人的积极影响。”符合，故选D。
60．上文“These findings suggest that what might seem small when we are deciding whether or not to do something nice for someone else could matter a great deal to the person we do it for, These warm acts can improve our own emotional health and brighten the day of another person. (这些发现表明，当我们决定是否为别人做一件好事时，那些看起来微不足道的事情对于我们为之做事的人来说可能意义重大。这些温暖的行为可以改善我们自己的情绪健康，并照亮别人的一天。)”对文章进行了总结，指出了善行的重要意义，A项“所以为什么不在可以的时候选择善良呢？”承接上文，呼应我们要善行，故选A。

【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文介绍了第一片人造太空垃圾是一个破碎的卫星，因为它没有造成任何问题，所以科学家最初并没有关心太空垃圾。随着太空垃圾越来越多，科学家意识到如果不及时清理太空垃圾，人类将面临危险。
61．根据下文“Scientists are now concerned that if we don’t clean it up, we may all be in great danger.(科学家们现在担心，如果我们不清理它，我们都可能处于巨大的危险之中)”可知，空处应是说太空垃圾越来越多，因此引起了科学家的担心，D选项“然而，自从我们的太空之旅开始以来，我们在太空中留下了许多垃圾”符合题意。故选D项。
62．根据上文“The first piece of space junk was created in the year of 1964, when the American
satellite Vanguard I stopped operating.(第一块太空垃圾产生于1964年，当时美国的先锋一号卫星停止运行)”可知，卫星停止运作当然会造成卫星和地面的中心失去联系，A选项“它与地面中心失去了联系”符合题意。故选A项。
63．根据下文“The junk varies from tiny pieces of paint chipped off rockets to cameras, huge fuel tanks, and even odd items like the million-dollar tool kit that astronaut Heidemarie Stefanyshyn Piper lost during a spacewalk.(这些垃圾从火箭上脱落的小块油漆到照相机、巨大的燃料箱不等，甚至还有一些奇怪的东西，比如宇航员Heidemarie Stefanyshyn Piper在太空行走中丢失的价值百万美元的工具包)”可知，此段涉及太空中各种各样的垃圾，E选项“据说现在有50多万人造垃圾以每小时17500英里的速度环绕地球”符合题意。故选E项。
64．上文“The major problem with the space trash is that it may hit working satellites and damage travelling spaceship. In addition to this, many pieces of junk may crash with each other and break into pieces which fall back to the Earth.(太空垃圾的主要问题是它可能会撞击工作中的卫星并损坏飞行中的宇宙飞船。除此之外，许多垃圾碎片可能会相互碰撞，破撞成碎片，落回地球)”提到太空垃圾的危害，下文“Ground stations have been built to monitor larger pieces of space trash to prevent them from crashing into working satellites or space shuttles.(已经建立了地面站来监测较大的太空垃圾，以防止它们撞到正在工作的卫星或航天飞机上)”是减少太空垃圾危害的措施，故空处应是说科学家寻求解决太空垃圾的办法，下文就是介绍具体的处理办法，B选项“为了避免这种情况，科学家们发明了几种清理太空的方法”符合题意。故选B项。
65．下文“They will stop littering in space and to clean up the trash already there.(他们将停止在太空中乱扔垃圾，并清理已经存在的垃圾)”提到他们将停止在太空乱扔垃圾，并清理已经存在的垃圾，空处应是描述另一解决太空垃圾的计划，指明下文“They”的指代对象，故F选项“未来的计划包括许多国家之间的合作努力”符合题意，They指的是F项中的“many nations”，故选F项。

【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章介绍了今年6月，美国国会结束了全民免费午餐计划，恢复到原来的制度，即低收入家庭必须根据收入填写文件，才有资格获得援助。由此而引发了一系列的问题，于是社会团体、网络名人及各州开始采取相应的措施，以提供必要的帮助。
66．根据上文“Congress ended the free-lunch-for-all program in June, reverting to a system in which low-income families had to fill out paperwork to qualify for aid based on their income. But
some families have been left behind because they do not understand the application process.(今年6月，国会结束了全民免费午餐计划，恢复到原来的制度，即低收入家庭必须根据收入填写文件，才有资格获得援助。但有些家庭因为不了解申请流程而落伍)”可知，此处在讲述国会结束了全民免费午餐计划后，该政策对一些家庭产生的影响。由此可知，B. Others are rejected because they do not qualify.(还有一些家庭因为不符合条件而被拒绝)能够衔接上文，符合语境。上文出现some families，下文应该是其他一些家庭的情况，others对应some families，故选B。
67．根据下文“According to the national campaign No Kid Hungry, students who eat school breakfast have been shown to achieve 17.5% higher scores on standardized math tests.(根据全国“不让孩子挨饿”运动，吃学校早餐的学生在标准化数学考试中成绩提高了17.5%)”可知，吃学校早餐可以提高学习成绩。由
