（2）七选五—2025高考英语一轮复习易混易错专项复习
七选五的试题模式为：给出一篇缺少5个句子的文章，对应有七个选项，要求同学们根据文章结构、内容，选出正确的句子，填入相应的空白处。主要考查考生对文章的整体内容和结构以及上下文逻辑意义的理解和掌握。
该题型选项大致可分为主旨概括句（文章整体内容）、过渡性句子（文章结构）和注释性句子（上下文逻辑意义）三类。
另外两个多余的干扰项也可以通过这三个特点来排除，例如主旨概括句要么过于宽泛要么以偏概全或偏离主题，过渡性句子不能反映文章的行文结构，注释性句子与上文脱节等。根据这些，我们总结一些关于七选五的做题方法供大家参考。
1. 通读全篇，掌握大意
阅读理解七选五考查考生对文章的整体内容、结构以及上下文逻辑意义的理解和掌握，做题时，考生应该快速浏览全文，寻找主题句，对文章结构、整体脉络及主要内容等做到心中有数。“开门见山”与“结尾总结”是英文写作中常见的写作方式，因此，阅读过程中要特别注意文章的首段和末段。如果主题句出现在首段，读者就能迅速明确文章主题。如果首段没有主题句，文章很可能采用“结尾总结”式。如果两者均排除，则需在文章其他段落寻找。另外，不少文章都有标题或小标题，通过标题也可以大致确定文章的主题。
2. 浏览段首，抓住段落主题句
阅读理解七选五不仅考查考生根据文义和语境还原关键句的能力，而且还考查考生概括段落主旨的能力。英语中的议论文和说明文的主题句一般都出现在段落的开头（偶尔也出现在段尾），对全文起着提示、概括、归纳的作用。因此，通读时，要找到每个段落的主题句，弄清每个段落是怎样围绕主题句展开论述或说明的。
3. 结合语境，解决细节问题
阅读理解七选五在设空时，选项的设置往往遵循“能抽出能还原”的原则，抽出的句子在上下文语境中一般都能找到相应的还原依据。因此，做题时一定要从上下文中找到支撑相关选项的具体信息，有时还需要根据表层信息进行推理和判断才能确定最佳选项。由于备选项中有两个多余选项，它们起着很大的干扰作用，因此在做这种题时，采用筛选法和排除法效果较好。
4. 定位选项，明确各备选项的含义，抓住其关键词语，根据文章结构与具体内容，将选项填入文中。填写时要注意各选项中出现的衔接性标志词。
在定位选项时，要特别注意空格处上下段的写作内容以及空格处上段尾句和下段首句的意义。将所选选项放入空格处后，看看所选选项是否能与上下文构成语义及逻辑上的一致关系，是否符合该处语境，能否承接前后的写作线索等，以确保文章无论在内容上还是衔接上都通顺。一篇文章作为一个整体，是有其写作线索与思路的。在定位选项时，要尤其注意文章的写作线索和思路。文章写作线索和思路的连贯性能使文章的每个段落、每个句子甚至每个短语都相互支撑。如果所选选项放入空白处后，文章写作线索或思路中断或是前后矛盾，应更换选项。
5. 通读复检，将所选选项代入文中，再次通读全文，重点检查逻辑关系和关联结构。
在完成选项定位后，应通读全文，检查文章内容是否完整，语义是否连贯合理，各段落内容是否紧扣主题，语篇结构是否通顺连贯、合乎逻辑，写作思路是否清晰明了，格式以及用语是否恰当贴切，从而判断所选选项是否正确。同时，考生还应注意对相近选项的对比分析，个别干扰项由于与某个正确选项的内容相近，具有很强的干扰性，这时就需要考生认真分析，仔细辨别，排除干扰，从而选出最佳选项。
1.Conscious (有意识的) living is not just a trend. ①______ It is about being intentional with everything you do—your words, actions, beliefs, habits, and choices. Accepting conscious living takes some effort, but it is worthwhile. Here are some ways you can achieve this goal.
●Be conscious about your time.
Time is the most precious thing because there is no way to live a moment again. ②______ If you waste your precious hours doing negative things, you will regret it later. The first step for living consciously is to be wise about your time. Be selective about things you spend it on, and allocate (分配) it for positive activities.
●③______
You cannot achieve them unless you understand your needs and intentions. It is easier said than done because most people fail to make an effort to know themselves. Spend time thinking over and knowing your strengths and weaknesses. Once you know yourself better, you can create a plan to work towards becoming more patient, honest, and forgiving.
●Learn to be grateful.
Gratitude takes you a long way towards conscious living. It opens you up to a happier and a fulfilled mindset. Most people are unhappy because they see only the negatives in life. However, everyone has something to be grateful for. Writing a gratitude journal is a good start for counting your blessings. ④______
●Believe in yourself.
It is the key to making the right choices, yet not regretting the wrong ones. ⑤______ Spending time alone and thinking deeply are effective measures that enable you to identify the inner voice. Care for it and follow it to make it stronger down the line.
Conscious living is a skill you need to learn as you go, so be willing to make the effort and master it. You will absorb it soon and be a happier person in the long run.
A. Know yourself better.
B. Accept the person you are.
C. Life can be a lot better with the right decisions.
D. It is a healthy choice that enables you to be happy.
E. Pick it as a daily habit, and you will notice the difference.
F. The way you spend your time determines the course of your life.
G. The best way to build self-belief is by reflecting on your own thoughts.
2. I'm a hiker—"born to hike". It does my heart and soul good to take a pack and head out on a trail(小路), especially when I'm alone and can let my mind wander where it will. ①________.
Hiking keeps your brain sharper than many other forms of exercise. As a professional writer, although I am busy with my work, I often spare some time to hike. ②________.
③________. Exercise in general can be a good way to decrease stress. But what sets hiking apart from other forms of exercise is that hiking can happen almost anywhere and give you the happiness that you can take from nature.
Hiking can increase our creativity. I'm sure I'm not alone in finding that walks in nature let my mind wander freely in creative directions. ④________. Sometimes, ideas relevant to music come up from unconscious places when I'm not deliberately thinking.
Hiking helps strengthen a positive relationship with the natural world. Besides being good for us, hiking may also help the world around us. After all, if we stick to walking and covering longer distances, we could use cars less and reduce our carbon footprint. ⑤________. For example, it increases our connection to nature. As one study suggests, when we have a personal connection to nature, we are more likely to want to protect it. That means experiences in nature—like hiking—can be mutually(相互地) beneficial, helping people and the earth.
So, grab a water bottle, a backpack... and head out on the trail. You won't be sorry you did.
A. Hiking helps to keep you calm and happy
B. Beyond that, hiking benefits our planet indirectly

G. This all goes to show that hiking maybe one of the best ways to move your body
3. Some people prefer to have a bite to eat before hitting the gym, known as a fed workout. Others would like to wait until after exercising to refuel their bodies, called a fasted workout. ①_________ Many experts say there's no easy answer because it depends on the person.
If you want energy and strength for an ideal workout, you need fuel. A fed workout will provide your body with power. Eating before exercise may help you sustain longer sessions and lift heavier weights. ②_________ Muscle preservation is also an essential component of strengthening your body. Nitrogen (氮) is critical for processing protein that builds healthy muscles. People tend to lose less nitrogen during a fed workout than a fasted one.
Many fitness enthusiasts are not on board with this idea. They report feeling sick and inactive while trying to exercise after eating. With a fasted workout, you may not get the usual indigestion. Experts for fasted workouts further claim that eating afterwards makes your body use its fat reserves for energy, meaning you will burn more fat. ③_________ It can cause a sudden drop in your blood glucose (葡萄糖) levels, and you may feel dizzy. You may even be more likely to overeat.
④_________ Not all foods are created equal. For example, if you choose a fed workout, you'll probably lose a lot of water during an intense training, so you should consider drinking some beforehand. With a fasted workout, it would help if you had some nutrition right after your session is complete. Drink some water. Then, have a light meal or nutritional snack.
Deciding when to eat for an ideal workout is a personal choice. Both fasted workouts and fed activities have their benefits and shortcomings. ⑤_________
A.However, a fasted workout might not work for you.
B.How your body will respond is based on your workout intensity.
C.These benefits can result in burning more fat and shaping a slimmer body.
D.To eat or not to eat, that is the question on many fitness enthusiasts' minds.
E.Think thoroughly and discuss with your fitness instructor before taking a choice.
F.Knowing what to eat for an ideal workout is just as important as knowing when to eat.
G.A person doing a 30-minute session a day may not have a problem with fasted workouts.
4. Complaining is often looked at as a negative, but if you perfect it, great things can happen.
①_____ Experts insist that too much complaining will lower your empathy(共鸣)and stop you achieving your dream and living the life you want. They suggest that you cut out negativity from your life, especially people who complain.
②_____ Once we discover how to effectively integrate it, great things can happen. Dr Robin Kowalski found those who complain with the hopes of achieving a certain result tend to be happier.
Complaining also influences how people see us, creates social bonds, encourages empathy and helps create real changes. It plays a very important role in our lives and is a skill that can be extremely effective. ③_____
So here are some ways to deal with complaining in a skillful way.
1.Clarify and organize your complaints. It will get your complaints across to others more easily.
2.Work out who can give you a hand. ④_____ Pick those who can empathize with you or help with your goal.

5. Reading books can exercise your brain. Kids who started reading at an earlier age go on to perform better on certain intelligence tests, such as analyses of their vocabulary size. As one gets older, it might help slow down or even cease cognitive decline. ①_____Many Americans don't read frequently. It's time to reverse this trend to give your brain gray matter a good workout.
②_____When you have some down time—you're waiting for a friend, sleeping lightly on the way from or to work, or doing a task that doesn't require your full attention—you can open your text instead of pulling up your favorite smartphone game. ③_____While paper is still the clear winner in the court of public opinion, science hasn't proven that physical books are better than digital ones.
Academic research has mostly focused on the ability to remember. A study took place in a laboratory setting: Students all read the same text, but some looked at the words on paper and others viewed an on-screen PDF. It turned out that no meaningful difference between the two media existed. As for audiobooks, they affected the brain gray matter somewhat differently. ④_____
Ultimately, if you hope to get a reading habit going, you shouldn't dismiss paper digital, or audio—⑤ _____Don't be afraid to change things up depending on the occasion.

I do remember, though, what it was like to be a complete beginner. So I've put together some good tips for starting an art journey.

●④_____ Seeking and accepting constructive feedback is crucial to growth. I post my work on social media and, in turn, have met some of the kindest people. They make me feel valued and respected, no matter my level of artistic ability.

With just a few clicks， you're flooded with vacation photos， updates， and ads. ① In this article， we'll teach you how to avoid certain triggers(触发因素) so you can stop comparing yourself to others.
Identify your triggers and avoid them. To stop comparing yourself to others， pay attention to the people or events that trigger your behavior. Do you feel dissatisfaction with your life after looking at high-end goods ② Write down your comparative thoughts as soon as they happen so you can limit your exposure to these situations.
Appreciate others instead of. envying them. ③ If you have friends who are highly achieving people， you might consider that their networks are full of people who might be able to help you become more successful in your life. Instead of envying their success， be supportive and use their success to your benefit.
④ Instead of focusing on your "weaknesses，" reflect on the areas you can improve. Take classes， workshops， or lessons to improve your skills， and don't be afraid to ask other people for help along the way. By putting yourself first， you can promote your self-confidence and find your place and value.

8. Aesthetic (审美) education aims to enhance aesthetic perception, experience aesthetic qualities, stimulate aesthetic creativity, and promote aesthetic judgement.
In order for kids to be able to appreciate natural wonders, shapes and pictures, they must be able to first notice them. This is why the development of the ability to notice the beautiful is the primary task of aesthetic education. ① ________ Kids are incapable of noticing particular shapes if their ability to notice objects and forms is undeveloped. The aesthetic relationship begins with the noticing of aesthetic qualities.
② ________ This means that they generate emotional responses like excitement and joy, enriching individuals' emotional lives and inspiring artistic expression. The ability to experience aesthetically must also be developed. The cognitive (认知的) elements of the processes that we experience during noticing must also include emotional tones with which we form impressions. ③ ________ The aim of this task is, with the aid of aesthetic qualities, to enrich the emotional life of children and young people and the development of a sense for aesthetic values.
It is essential to allow children to participate in activities that will develop their creative abilities. ④ ________ Instead, it is about creativity in the creation of aesthetic values in everyday life. We are not simply born with creative abilities which have to be developed.
Judging or evaluating aesthetic qualities demands formed evaluation criteria. In order for beauty to reveal its true value, we must be familiar with its particularities. Throughout the process of aesthetic education, various types of knowledge, abilities and evaluation criteria must be applied. ⑤ ________

5.答案：FEDGB
解析：①根据上文"Reading books can exercise your brain. Kids who started reading at an earlier age go on to perform better on certain intelligence tests, such as analyses of their vocabulary size. As one gets older, it might help slow down or even cease cognitive decline.(读书可以锻炼你的大脑。更早开始阅读的孩子在某些智力测试中表现得更好,比如对词汇量的分析。随着年龄的增长,它可能有助于减缓甚至停止认知能力的下降)"以及后文"Many Americans don't read frequently.(许多美国人不经常读书)"可知,上文提到了阅读的好处,后文则说美国人不经常读书,可知本句是在说明美国人的阅读时间正在下降,F选项中Americans对应后文中Americans。故F选项"尽管如此,美国人总的阅读时间正在下降"符合语境。故选F。
②根据后文"When you have some down time—you're waiting for a friend, sleeping lightly on the way from or to work, or doing a task that doesn't require your full attention—you can open your text instead of pulling up your favorite smartphone game.(当你有空的时候——比如在等朋友的时候,在上下班的路上睡觉的时候,或者在做一件不需要你全神贯注的事情的时候——你可以打开你的文本而不是打开你最喜欢的智能手机游戏)"可知,后文提到了利用空闲时候来阅读,可见本句是在建议随身带上阅读的书籍,故E选项"随身携带一本书、电子阅读器或有声读物应用"符合语境。故选E。
③根据后文"While paper is still the clear winner in the court of public opinion, science hasn't proven that physical books are better than digital ones.(虽然纸质书仍然是公众舆论的赢家,但科学还没有证明纸质书比数字书更好)"可知,后文提到了纸质书是舆论的赢家,可见本句是在说明这一舆论的内容,后文则说明舆论的结果,D选项中debate对应后文中public opinion。故D选项"这带来了一个巨大的争论:纸质书vs屏幕vs音频"符合语境。故选D。
④根据上文"Academic research has mostly focused on the ability to remember. A study took place in a laboratory setting: Students all read the same text, but some looked at the words on paper and others viewed an on-screen PDF. It turned out that no meaningful difference between the two media existed. As for audiobooks, they affected the brain gray matter somewhat differently.(学术研究主要集中在记忆能力上。在实验室环境下进行了一项研究:所有学生都阅读同样的文本,但一些人看的是纸上的文字,另一些人看的是屏幕上的PDF文件。事实证明,这两种媒体之间并不存在任何有意义的区别。至于有声读物,它们对大脑灰质的影响有所不同)"可知,上文提到阅读纸上的文字和屏幕上的文字之间并不存在任何有意义的区别,且提到了有声读物对大脑的影响,本句为本段最后一句,应继续说明有声读物对大脑的影响结果是什么。G选项中they指代上文audiobooks。故G选项"然而,它们对大脑的刺激不亚于黑白纸张"符合语境。故选G。
⑤根据上文"Ultimately, if you hope to get a reading habit going, you shouldn't dismiss paper digital, or audio(最后,如果你希望养成阅读习惯,你就不应该放弃纸质、数字或音频)"以及后文"Don't be afraid to change things up depending on the occasion.(不要害怕根据不同的场合做出改变)"可知,上文提到不应该放弃纸质、数字或音频,后文说根据不同场合做出改变,可知本句是在说明应该根据需要来做出选择。故B选项"选择最符合你需要的"符合语境。故选B。
6.答案：①-⑤ CGADE
解析：①空后一句讲到了"You'll want to look back on your journey to see how far you've come"(你会想要回顾自己的旅程，看看自己已经走了多远)，因此空处应该会做一个关于"看什么来回顾"的铺垫，C项中的"your beginner art"可以帮助你看到自己从开始到现在走了多远，故C项符合语境。故选C。
②空处位于本段的结尾，空前一句讲到了"Whether you paint still lives, portraits, or landscapes, paint from life as much as possible"(无论你是画静物画、肖像画还是风景画，都要尽可能多地写生)，G项"你将培养出只有重复才能得到的绘画肌肉记忆"讲到这样做的目的和好处，承接上文，符合语境。故选G。

④结合本空的位置可知，本空考查段落主旨句。根据本段中的"Seeking and accepting constructive feedback(反馈)is crucial...They make me feel valued and respected"可知，本段讲到了可以利用社交媒体寻求建设性的反馈以及这样做的好处，故D项"分享你的作品，如果这样做让你觉得舒服"适合作本段的主旨句。故选D。
⑤空前一句讲到了"The journey you're on won't follow a straight path" (你的旅途不会一路平坦)，而空后讲到了"Push through, give it time and put in the effort"(坚持下去，给它时间，付出努力)，这是面对困境时的做法，因此空处应承接上一句，讲到旅途中的困难，故E项"你会遇到障碍，有时你会感到沮丧"符合语境。故选E。
7.答案：GFDBE
解析：①G上文"'It's natural to compare yourself to others， and even envy them， if you hop on your social nedia for a few minutes. With just a few clicks， you're flooded with vacation photos， updates， and ads.(如果你在社交媒体上花几分钟时间，就会很自然地将自己与他人进行比较，甚至羡慕他们。只需点击几下，你就会看到大量度假照片、更新和广告)"指出在社交媒体上花几分钟时间，就会很自然地将自己与他人进行比较，下文"In this article， we'll teach you ho to avoid certain triggers (触发因素) so you can stop comparing yourself to others.(在这篇文章中，我们将教你如何避免某些触发因素，这样你就可以不再将自己与他人进行比较。)"指出文章会教你如何避免某些触发因素，这样你就可以不再将自己与他人进行比较，由此可知，我们没必要与别人进行比较，G项"但这并不意味着你必须"跟上"才能过上充实而有意义的生活。"符合。故选G。
②F上文"To stop comparing yourself to others pay attention to the people or events that trigger your behavior， Do you feel dissatisfaction with your life after looking at high-end goods (为了停止将自己与他人进行比较，请关注引发您行为的人或事件。看到高端商品后，您是否对自己的生活感到不满 )"指出为了停止将自己与他人进行比较，我们应该关注引发您行为的人或事件，接着举例指出我们可能会出现的一些比较想法，下文"Write down your comparative thoughts as soon as they happen so you can limit your exposure to these situations.(一旦出现比较想法，就立即将其写下来，这样你就可以限制自己接触这些情况。)"指出出现比较想法该如何做，由此可知，空处承接上文，也应指出我们可能会出现的一些比较想法，F项"是否有人总是让你对自己感觉不好 "符合。故选F。

By putting yourself first， you can promote your self-confidence and find your place and value.(不要只关注自己的"弱点"，而要反思自己可以前改进的地方。参加课程、研讨会或课程来提高自己的技能，不要害怕向其他人寻求帮助。把自己放在第一位，可以增强自信心，找到自己的位置和价值。)"可知，我们努力提高自己的能力。B项"努力提高自己的能力。"符合。故选B。
⑤E上文"Discuss your comparative behavior with a loved one to release any negative beliefs and help you process your emotions.(与所爱之人讨论你的比较行为，以释放任何消极信念并帮助你处理情绪)"指出与所爱之人讨论你的比较行为，空处承接上文，指出这么做会带来什么样的结果，E项"你可能会惊讶地听到他们和你有同样的感受。"符合。故选E。
8.答案：BADGF
解析：①根据上文的"In order for kids to be able to appreciate natural wonders, shapes and pictures, they must be able to first notice them. This is why the development of the ability to notice the beautiful is the primary task of aesthetic education. (为了让孩子们能够欣赏自然奇观、形状和图片,他们必须首先能够注意到它们。因此,培养对美的鉴赏能力是美育的首要任务。)"和下文的"Kids are incapable of noticing particular shapes if their ability to notice objects and forms is undeveloped. The aesthetic relationship begins with the noticing of aesthetic qualities. (如果孩子注意物体和形状的能力没有得到发展,他们就不能注意到特定的形状。审美关系从审美品质的注意开始。)"可知,B项(美在我们身边随处可见。)承接上文,指出了培养孩子对美的鉴赏能力才能够让孩子去发现身边的美,下文从反向的角度说明孩子没有鉴赏能力就不能欣赏美的东西。故选B。
②根据下文的"This means that they generate emotional responses like excitement and joy, enriching individuals' emotional lives and inspiring artistic expression. (这意味着它们会产生兴奋和喜悦等情感反应,丰富个人的情感生活,激发艺术表达。)"可知,A 项(必须要体会到审美品质。)的这个要求得到了下文的解释,指出了孩子要能够产生愉快的情感反应,这是审美品质的一种要求。故选A。
③根据上文的"The ability to experience aesthetically must also be developed. The cognitive elements of the processes that we experience during noticing must also include emotional tones with which we form impressions. (审美体验的能力也必须得到发展。我们在注意过程中所经历的认知因素也必须包括我们形成印象的情感基调。)"和下文的"The aim of this task is, with the aid of aesthetic qualities, to enrich the emotional life of children and young people and the development of a sense for aesthetic values. (这项任务的目的是在审美素质的帮助下,丰富儿童和青少年的情感生活,培养审美价值。)"可知,D项(审美经验正是建立在这些基础之上的。)承接上文,说明了审美经验的获得是建立在形成印象的认知过程的基础上,下文指出了审美经验被获得后的价值所在。故选D。
④根据上文的"It is essential to allow children to participate in activities that will develop their creative abilities. (让孩子们参加能发展他们创造能力的活动是很重要的。)"和下文的"Instead, it is about creativity in the creation of aesthetic values in everyday life. We are not simply born with creative abilities which have to be developed. (相反,它是关于在日常生活中创造审美价值的创造力。我们并不是天生就有需要培养的创造能力。)"可知,G项(这并不是说要培养艺术家的审美能力。)承接上文,说明了不是要把孩子的创造能力打造成艺术家的水准,而是要让孩子在日常生活中有发现美的能力。故选G。
⑤根据上文的"Judging or evaluating aesthetic qualities demands formed evaluation criteria. In order for beauty to reveal its true value, we must be familiar with its particularities. Throughout the process of aesthetic education, various types of knowledge, abilities and evaluation criteria must be applied. (判断或评价审美品质需要形成评价标准。为了使美显示出它的真正价值,我们必须熟悉它的特殊性。在整个美育过程中,必须运用各种知识、能力和评价标准。)"可知,F项(这样,孩子就会发展出判断美的基础。)承接上文,说明了制定合理的评价标准有利于培养孩子的审美能力。故选F。
七选五的试题模式为：给出一篇缺少5个句子的文章，对应有七个选项，要求同学们根据文章结构、内容，选出正确的句子，填入相应的空白处。主要考查考生对文章的整体内容和结构以及上下文逻辑意义的理解和掌握。
该题型选项大致可分为主旨概括句（文章整体内容）、过渡性句子（文章结构）和注释性句子（上下文逻辑意义）三类。
另外两个多余的干扰项也可以通过这三个特点来排除，例如主旨概括句要么过于宽泛要么以偏概全或偏离主题，过渡性句子不能反映文章的行文结构，注释性句子与上文脱节等。根据这些，我们总结一些关于七选五的做题方法供大家参考。
1. 通读全篇，掌握大意
阅读理解七选五考查考生对文章的整体内容、结构以及上下文逻辑意义的理解和掌握，做题时，考生应该快速浏览全文，寻找主题句，对文章结构、整体脉络及主要内容等做到心中有数。“开门见山”与“结尾总结”是英文写作中常见的写作方式，因此，阅读过程中要特别注意文章的首段和末段。如果主题句出现在首段，读者就能迅速明确文章主题。如果首段没有主题句，文章很可能采用“结尾总结”式。如果两者均排除，则需在文章其他段落寻找。另外，不少文章都有标题或小标题，通过标题也可以大致确定文章的主题。
2. 浏览段首，抓住段落主题句
阅读理解七选五不仅考查考生根据文义和语境还原关键句的能力，而且还考查考生概括段落主旨的能力。英语中的议论文和说明文的主题句一般都出现在段落的开头（偶尔也出现在段尾），对全文起着提示、概括、归纳的作用。因此，通读时，要找到每个段落的主题句，弄清每个段落是怎样围绕主题句展开论述或说明的。
3. 结合语境，解决细节问题
阅读理解七选五在设空时，选项的设置往往遵循“能抽出能还原”的原则，抽出的句子在上下文语境中一般都能找到相应的还原依据。因此，做题时一定要从上下文中找到支撑相关选项的具体信息，有时还需要根据表层信息进行推理和判断才能确定最佳选项。由于备选项中有两个多余选项，它们起着很大的干扰作用，因此在做这种题时，采用筛选法和排除法效果较好。
4. 定位选项，明确各备选项的含义，抓住其关键词语，根据文章结构与具体内容，将选项填入文中。填写时要注意各选项中出现的衔接性标志词。
在定位选项时，要特别注意空格处上下段的写作内容以及空格处上段尾句和下段首句的意义。将所选选项放入空格处后，看看所选选项是否能与上下文构成语义及逻辑上的一致关系，是否符合该处语境，能否承接前后的写作线索等，以确保文章无论在内容上还是衔接上都通顺。一篇文章作为一个整体，是有其写作线索与思路的。在定位选项时，要尤其注意文章的写作线索和思路。文章写作线索和思路的连贯性能使文章的每个段落、每个句子甚至每个短语都相互支撑。如果所选选项放入空白处后，文章写作线索或思路中断或是前后矛盾，应更换选项。
5. 通读复检，将所选选项代入文中，再次通读全文，重点检查逻辑关系和关联结构。
在完成选项定位后，应通读全文，检查文章内容是否完整，语义是否连贯合理，各段落内容是否紧扣主题，语篇结构是否通顺连贯、合乎逻辑，写作思路是否清晰明了，格式以及用语是否恰当贴切，从而判断所选选项是否正确。同时，考生还应注意对相近选项的对比分析，个别干扰项由于与某个正确选项的内容相近，具有很强的干扰性，这时就需要考生认真分析，仔细辨别，排除干扰，从而选出最佳选项。

●③______
You cannot achieve them unless you understand your needs and intentions. It is easier said than done because most people fail to make an effort to know themselves.

●Learn to be grateful.
Gratitude takes you a long way towards conscious living. It opens you up to a happier and a fulfilled mindset. Most people are unhappy because they see only the negatives in life.

3. Some people prefer to have a bite to eat before hitting the gym, known as a fed workout. Others would like to wait until after exercising to refuel their bodies, called a fasted workout. ①_________ Many experts say there's no easy answer because it depends on the person.
If you want energy and strength for an ideal workout, you need fuel. A fed workout will provide your body with power. Eating before exercise may help you sustain longer sessions and lift heavier weights. ②_________ Muscle preservation is also an essential component of strengthening your body. Nitrogen (氮) is critical for processing protein that builds healthy muscles. People tend to lose less nitrogen during a fed workout than a fasted one.
Many fitness enthusiasts are not on board with this idea. They report feeling sick and inactive while trying to exercise after eating. With a fasted workout, you may not get the usual indigestion. Experts for fasted workouts further claim that eating afterwards makes your body use its fat reserves for energy, meaning you will burn more fat. ③_________ It can cause a sudden drop in your blood glucose (葡萄糖) levels, and you may feel dizzy. You may even be more likely to overeat.
④_________ Not all foods are created equal. For example, if you choose a fed workout, you'll probably lose a lot of water during an intense training, so you should consider drinking some beforehand. With a fasted workout, it would help if you had some nutrition right after your session is complete. Drink some water. Then, have a light meal or nutritional snack.
Deciding when to eat for an ideal workout is a personal choice. Both fasted workouts and fed activities have their benefits and shortcomings. ⑤_________
A.However, a fasted workout might not work for you.
B.How your body will respond is based on your workout intensity.
C.These benefits can result in burning more fat and shaping a slimmer body.

E.Think thoroughly and discuss with your fitness instructor before taking a choice.
F.Knowing what to eat for an ideal workout is just as important as knowing when to eat.
G.A person doing a 30-minute session a day may not have a problem with fasted workouts.
4. Complaining is often looked at as a negative, but if you perfect it, great things can happen.
①_____ Experts insist that too much complaining will lower your empathy(共鸣)and stop you achieving your dream and living the life you want. They suggest that you cut out negativity from your life, especially people who complain.
②_____ Once we discover how to effectively integrate it, great things can happen. Dr Robin Kowalski found those who complain with the hopes of achieving a certain result tend to be happier.

As one gets older, it might help slow down or even cease cognitive decline. ①_____Many Americans don't read frequently. It's time to reverse this trend to give your brain gray matter a good workout.
②_____When you have some down time—you're waiting for a friend, sleeping lightly on the way from or to work, or doing a task that doesn't require your full attention—you can open your text instead of pulling up your favorite smartphone game. ③_____While paper is still the clear winner in the court of public opinion, science hasn't proven that physical books are better than digital ones.
Academic research has mostly focused on the ability to remember. A study took place in a laboratory setting: Students all read the same text, but some looked at the words on paper and others viewed an on-screen PDF. It turned out that no meaningful difference between the two media existed. As for audiobooks, they affected the brain gray matter somewhat differently. ④_____

8.答案：BADGF
解析：①根据上文的"In order for kids to be able to appreciate natural wonders, shapes and pictures, they must be able to first notice them.

(为了让孩子们能够欣赏自然奇观、形状和图片,他们必须首先能够注意到它们。因此,培养对美的鉴赏能力是美育的首要任务。)"和下文的"Kids are incapable of noticing particular shapes if their ability to notice objects and forms is undeveloped. The aesthetic relationship begins with the noticing of aesthetic qualities. (如果孩子注意物体和形状的能力没有得到发展,他们就不能注意到特定的形状。审美关系从审美品质的注意开始。)"可知,B项(美在我们身边随处可见。)承接上文,指出了培养孩子对美的鉴赏能力才能够让孩子去发现身边的美,下文从反向的角度说明孩子没有鉴赏能力就不能欣赏美的东西。故选B。

(相反,它是关于在日常生活中创造审美价值的创造力。我们并不是天生就有需要培养的创造能力。)"可知,G项(这并不是说要培养艺术家的审美能力。)承接上文,说明了不是要把孩子的创造能力打造成艺术家的水准,而是要让孩子在日常生活中有发现美的能力。故选G。

Throughout the process of aesthetic education, various types of knowledge, abilities and evaluation criteria must be applied.
