UNIT 2 Improving yourself
Ⅰ.阅读理解
(2025·岳阳二模)Billions of people deal with a nail-biting habit at some point in their lives.Many will go to great lengths to try to stop.And while not all of us are nail-biters, most of us do have a habit we’d like to kick.So what’s the best way to break one?
Research shows that intentions alone often fail to lead to long-term behavior change.This isn’t to say you can’t break a habit.Rather, by understanding the basis of habits, you can create better plans for changing them.For example, we know habits are often affected by environments and routines.Lying in bed may cause you to endlessly scroll through your phone, or watching TV on the couch may lead you to grab a sugary snack.
One of the most effective ways to manage behavior is to identify these locations or times of day.Then try to modify them by changing your routine or creating obstacles that make it more difficult to perform the habit in that space.Moving, switching jobs, or even starting a new schedule, are particularly great times to break a habit or build a new one.
One 2005 study tracked university students’ exercising, reading, and TV-watching habits before and after they transferred schools.When students were no longer around old environments and routines, their habits, even the strong ones, significantly changed.
For behaviors like nail-biting, a practice called habit reversal training can be helpful.Developed by psychologists in the 1970s, the aim is to change a habit by replacing it with another one that’s less detrimental.The training requires you to analyze and understand your habit cues, so you can effectively step in at the right times.For example, if you tend to bite your nails at work, keep a fidget toy at your desk in advance.Then, if a stressful email comes in, use the toy when you feel the urge to bite your nails.
Breaking a habit takes time, so remember to give yourself grace and have patience through the process.

A.To make a comparison. B.To make a conclusion.

2.What is the best way to help us control our action?( )
A.Having intentions alone. B.Understanding the basis of habits.
C.Making practical plans. D.Adapting to the environments or times.
3.What does the underlined word “detrimental” in Paragraph 5 probably mean?( )
A.Harmful. B.Helpful.
C.Annoying. D.Time-consuming.
4.Which of the following is the best title for the text?( )
A.Difficulties in Dealing With Nail-biting B.Significance of Habit Reversal Training
C.Useful Tips on Getting Rid of a Habit D.Necessity of Having Grace and Patience

(2025·六安模拟)
More Parental Investment Slower Children’s Growth
Are teenagers less likely to participate in activities associated with adulthood because they’re busier with homework and extra-curricular activities? Researchers found that time spent on homework and extra-curricular activities has declined among 10th graders.It’s remained relatively steady among 12th graders.5.( ) This might account for some of the changes.In fact, one documentary labeled today’s teens as “screenagers”.Greater parental investment leads to teens growing up more slowly because parents supervise children and teens more carefully and organize their activities.
The study researchers also found an association between a slower developmental trajectory and smaller family size, higher parental age at first birth, and higher median income.With fewer children and more money, parents can invest more time and resources in their kids.6.( ) There are also economic factors.With shifts in the economy, more people go to college and are dependent on their parents for longer.7.( ) 18-to 29-years-olds spend more time getting educated, marrying later, and having children later than previous generations.
8.( ) On the upside, teens are less likely to engage in risky behaviors.They’re more likely to wait until they’re ready to participate in adult activities.9.( ) Today’s students may be sharp academically, but they often have trouble with basics like time management, making their own decisions and leading independent lives.
A.There are benefits and drawbacks to the decline in adult activities among adolescents.
B.It helps children enjoy a life with more material richness.
C.On the other hand, Internet usage has increased.
D.This may allow them to follow a slower developmental path.
E.On the downside, it poses an obstacle to teens’ all-round development.
F.More money is needed to cover their education.
G.That also gives rise to more careful parenting with the idea that education will last longer.
Ⅲ.完形填空
(2025·浙江联考)“Keep staring! I might do a 10 !” That’s the message on a T-shirt of mine.
People stare at me all the time so I thought this shirt would be funny.See, I’m a dwarf (侏儒).Most of the time people aren’t trying to be 11 .They just haven’t seen many dwarfs like me before.I can 12 that, but I also want to let them know that I see them staring.
I was born with achondroplasia (软骨发育不全), the most 13 form of dwarfism.Right now, I am almost four feet tall and that’s 14 as tall as I’m going to get.
I’m not going to pretend my height isn’t a 15 .Light switches and 16 are usually too high for me.It takes me almost three steps to 17 one step of an average size adult and my mom has to shorten almost all of my 18 .
But everyone faces challenges.You have to face them with a good attitude.So, I have a long barbecue fork to 19 things from shelves and drive a car with the help of pedal 20 .If all else fails, I ask for things.The way I see it, I can do just about 21 that an average size person can do.I’ll never play professional sports, but I have no problem 22 my limits.It may take me longer and it may be harder, but I can still do it.
My shirt shows people the 23 me — a kid with a sense of humor.And maybe that’s the trick showing others that I’m just like them.I’m just shorter, but I’m 24 of who I am.

UNIT 2 Improving yourself
Ⅰ.
语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一些改变习惯的方法。1.C 推理判断题。根据第一段内容可知,第一段以“咬指甲”这个坏习惯为例引出文章主题,即如何改掉习惯。
2.D 细节理解题。根据第三段中的One of the most effective ways to manage behavior is to identify these locations or times of day.可知,管理行为最好的方法之一是确定时间或地点,即适应环境或时间。
3.A 词义猜测题。根据画线词下文的例子可知,如果收到一封压力大的电子邮件时,当你感到想要咬指甲时,就使用这个玩具,这种危害性较小的行为来代替咬指甲这种习惯,即通过一种危害性较小的习惯来取代或者改变原有的习惯。由此可知,detrimental意为“有害的”,和harmful意思相近。
4.C 标题归纳题。通读全文可知,文章主要介绍了如何改变习惯,包括了环境和常规的影响,以及一些有效的方法。因此,C项(改掉一个习惯的有用方法)作文章标题最佳。
Ⅱ.
语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述父母对孩子投入越多,孩子成熟越缓慢这一现象,并分析原因和说明利弊。5.C 根据上文可知,这里分析孩子参加大人的活动越来越少的原因,10年级的学生花在作业和课外活动的时间事实上减少了,12年级的孩子基本不变。C项(另一方面,互联网的使用增加了)符合语境,C项中的On the other hand体现了increased和declined,steady的对比。
6.D 根据上文可知,孩子越少,经济条件越好,父母对孩子投入的时间和资源就越多。D项(这可能会让他们遵循一个较慢的发展道路)符合语境。D项中的This指代上一句内容。
7.G 根据上下文可知,本段讲的是由于经济上依赖的原因,教育经历持续时间越长,孩子对父母的依赖就越久,结婚、生孩子都会推迟,G项(这也导致了教育将持续更长时间的想法,使父母更加谨慎)符合语境。G项中longer和上文的longer相呼应。
8.A 结合本空的位置可知,本空为段落主旨句。根据下文On the upside ...participate in adult activities.以及Today’s students may be ...and leading independent lives.可知,A项(青少年成人活动的减少有利有弊)符合语境。
9.E 根据下文可知,此处分析孩子成熟变缓的缺点。E项(不利的一面是,它阻碍了青少年的全面发展)符合语境。
Ⅲ.
语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文。作者患有侏儒症,但是他本人坚强、幽默,不断通过自身的努力去完成一个正常身高的人完成的任何事情。
10.C 根据最后一段的that’s the trick可知,作者T恤上的标语是:“继续盯着!我可能会变个戏法!”
11.A 根据下文They just haven’t seen many dwarfs like me before.可知,人们盯着作者看,并不是故意表现得这么粗鲁的,他们只是之前没有见过很多像作者一样的侏儒。
12.C 根据上文语境可知,作者内心理解大家为什么会一直盯着自己看,但他也想让他们知道他看到他们盯着看了。
13.A 根据上文I was born with achondroplasia和常识可知,作者天生患有软骨发育不全,这是最常见的侏儒症。
14.D 上文讲作者患有侏儒症。作者现在几乎有四英尺高,那几乎就是作者以后能达到的高度。
15.A 根据下文Light switches and 16 are usually too high for me.和常识可知,身高在作者的生活中确实带来了挑战。
16.C 根据and可知,空处与Light switches均是作者列举的生活中由于身高而面临的挑战。再结合上文I am almost four feet tall和选项可知,电灯开关和柜台对作者来说通常都太高了。
17.B 作者几乎四英尺高,因此一般成人走一步,作者需要走约三步才能跟得上。
18.C 作者有侏儒症,所以母亲需要把他几乎所有的裤子都裁短。
19.A 根据语境可知,作者患有侏儒症,应是用长长的烧烤叉将东西从架子上拉下来。
20.B 通过延长的踏板,作者可以开车了。
21.C 上文描述了作者一直在不断尝试解决各种生活问题。由此可知,在作者眼中,他基本上可以做一个正常身高的人能做的任何事。
22.D 根据I’ll never play professional sports可知,作者不会去参加职业运动,但是测试自己的极限是没问题的。
23.D 根据第一段第一句可知,作者衣服上的文字展示了真正的自己——一个具有幽默感的孩子。
24.D 此处前后分句之间是转折关系,表示虽然作者较矮,但作者为自己感到骄傲。

Dear friends,
Today, I want to talk about the advantages and disadvantages of
social media.On one hand, these platforms can motivate us and
promote lifelong learning.They can also provide a platform for us to
express ourselves and share our thoughts and experiences with others.We
have constant access to news headlines and can engage with diverse
perspectives.However, in contrast to face-to-face interaction, online
profiles can distract us.The need for security is very important as we rely
on these networks.
Sadly, many become occupied with their online lives and miss out
on real experience.Procrastination is common, and it’s essential to
step away from time to time for a digital detox.Let’s use these tools
objectively and wisely.
Thank you.

统筹组合,全面训练
Ⅰ.阅读理解
(2025·岳阳二模)Billions of people deal with a nail-biting habit
at some point in their lives.Many will go to great lengths to try to
stop.And while not all of us are nail-biters, most of us do have a habit
we’d like to kick.So what’s the best way to break one?
Research shows that intentions alone often fail to lead to long-term
behavior change.This isn’t to say you can’t break a habit.Rather, by
understanding the basis of habits, you can create better plans for
changing them.For example, we know habits are often affected by
environments and routines.Lying in bed may cause you to endlessly scroll
through your phone, or watching TV on the couch may lead you to grab a
sugary snack.
One of the most effective ways to manage behavior is to identify these
locations or times of day.Then try to modify them by changing your
routine or creating obstacles that make it more difficult to perform the
habit in that space.Moving, switching jobs, or even starting a new
schedule, are particularly great times to break a habit or build a new one.
One 2005 study tracked university students’ exercising, reading,
and TV-watching habits before and after they transferred schools.When
students were no longer around old environments and routines, their
habits, even the strong ones, significantly changed.
For behaviors like nail-biting, a practice called habit reversal
training can be helpful.Developed by psychologists in the 1970s, the aim
is to change a habit by replacing it with another one that’s less
detrimental.The training requires you to analyze and understand your habit
cues, so you can effectively step in at the right times.For example, if
you tend to bite your nails at work, keep a fidget toy at your desk in
advance.Then, if a stressful email comes in, use the toy when you feel
the urge to bite your nails.
Breaking a habit takes time, so remember to give yourself grace and
have patience through the process.

法。
语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一些改变习惯的
方法。
1. Why does the author mention “a nail-biting habit” in Paragraph 1?
( )
A. To make a comparison.
B. To make a conclusion.
C. To introduce the topic.
D. To attract readers’ attention.
解析: 推理判断题。根据第一段内容可知,第一段以“咬指甲”
这个坏习惯为例引出文章主题,即如何改掉习惯。
√
2. What is the best way to help us control our action?( )
A. Having intentions alone.
B. Understanding the basis of habits.
C. Making practical plans.
D. Adapting to the environments or times.
解析: 细节理解题。根据第三段中的One of the most effective ways
to manage behavior is to identify these locations or times of day.可知,管
理行为最好的方法之一是确定时间或地点,即适应环境或时间。
√
3. What does the underlined word “detrimental” in Paragraph 5
probably mean?( )
A. Harmful. B. Helpful.
C. Annoying. D. Time-consuming.
解析: 词义猜测题。根据画线词下文的例子可知,如果收到一封
压力大的电子邮件时,当你感到想要咬指甲时,就使用这个玩具,这
种危害性较小的行为来代替咬指甲这种习惯,即通过一种危害性较小
的习惯来取代或者改变原有的习惯。由此可知,detrimental意为“有
害的”,和harmful意思相近。
√

More Parental Investment Slower Children’s Growth
Are teenagers less likely to participate in activities associated with
adulthood because they’re busier with homework and extra-curricular
activities? Researchers found that time spent on homework and extra-
curricular activities has declined among 10th graders.It’s remained
relatively steady among 12th graders.5.( ) This might account for
some of the changes.In fact, one documentary labeled today’s teens as
“screenagers”.Greater parental investment leads to teens growing up
more slowly because parents supervise children and teens more carefully
and organize their activities.
The study researchers also found an association between a slower
developmental trajectory and smaller family size, higher parental age at
first birth, and higher median income.With fewer children and more
money, parents can invest more time and resources in their kids.6.
( )
There are also economic factors.With shifts in the economy, more
people go to college and are dependent on their parents for longer.7.
( ) 18-to 29-years-olds spend more time getting educated,
marrying later, and having children later than previous generations.
8. ( ) On the upside, teens are less likely to engage in risky
behaviors.They’re more likely to wait until they’re ready to participate
in adult activities.9.( ) Today’s students may be sharp
academically, but they often have trouble with basics like time
management, making their own decisions and leading independent lives.
A. There are benefits and drawbacks to the decline in adult activities
among adolescents.
B. It helps children enjoy a life with more material richness.
C. On the other hand, Internet usage has increased.
D. This may allow them to follow a slower developmental path.
E. On the downside, it poses an obstacle to teens’ all-round
development.
F. More money is needed to cover their education.
G. That also gives rise to more careful parenting with the idea that
education will last longer.

多,孩子成熟越缓慢这一现象,并分析原因和说明利弊。
5. C 根据上文可知,这里分析孩子参加大人的活动越来越少的
原因,10年级的学生花在作业和课外活动的时间事实上减少了,
12年级的孩子基本不变。C项(另一方面,互联网的使用增加了)
符合语境,C项中的On the other hand体现了increased和
declined,steady的对比。
6. D 根据上文可知,孩子越少,经济条件越好,父母对孩子投入的
时间和资源就越多。D项(这可能会让他们遵循一个较慢的发展道
路)符合语境。D项中的This指代上一句内容。
7. G 根据上下文可知,本段讲的是由于经济上依赖的原因,教育经
历持续时间越长,孩子对父母的依赖就越久,结婚、生孩子都会推
迟,G项(这也导致了教育将持续更长时间的想法,使父母更加谨
慎)符合语境。G项中longer和上文的longer相呼应。
8. A 结合本空的位置可知,本空为段落主旨句。根据下文On the
upside ...participate in adult activities.以及Today’s students may
be ...and leading independent lives.可知,A项(青少年成人活动的减
少有利有弊)符合语境。
9. E 根据下文可知,此处分析孩子成熟变缓的缺点。E项(不利的
一面是,它阻碍了青少年的全面发展)符合语境。
Ⅲ.完形填空
(2025·浙江联考)“Keep staring! I might do a 10 !”
That’s the message on a T-shirt of mine.
People stare at me all the time so I thought this shirt would be
funny.See, I’m a dwarf (侏儒).Most of the time people aren’t
trying to be 11 .They just haven’t seen many dwarfs like me
before.I can 12 that, but I also want to let them know that I see
them staring.
I was born with achondroplasia (软骨发育不全), the
most 13 form of dwarfism.Right now, I am almost four feet tall and
that’s 14 as tall as I’m going to get.
I’m not going to pretend my height isn’t a 15 .Light switches
and 16 are usually too high for me.It takes me almost three steps
to 17 one step of an average size adult and my mom has to shorten
almost all of my 18 .
But everyone faces challenges.You have to face them with a good
attitude.So, I have a long barbecue fork to 19 things from shelves
and drive a car with the help of pedal 20 .If all else fails, I ask for
things.The way I see it, I can do just about 21 that an average size
person can do.I’ll never play professional sports, but I have no
problem 22 my limits.It may take me longer and it may be harder,
but I can still do it.
My shirt shows people the 23 me — a kid with a sense of
humor.And maybe that’s the trick showing others that I’m just like
them.I’m just shorter, but I’m 24 of who I am.
