名为何物？
联合王国、大不列颠、英国、英格兰——这些不同的名称是何意
思，许多人感到困惑。那么，如果这些名称有区别的话，区别何在？
稍微了解一下英国历史，就可以帮助你解开这个谜题。
十六世纪时，邻国威尔士并入英格兰王国。随后，苏格兰在十八
世纪也加入进来，从而诞生了大不列颠王国。十九世纪时，爱尔兰王
国加入，组成了大不列颠及爱尔兰联合王国。最后，在二十世纪时，
爱尔兰南部脱离了联合王国，形成了今天的英国全称：大不列颠及北
爱尔兰联合王国。大多数人只是使用简称：“联合王国。”来自联合
王国的人被称为“英国人”，这意味着联合王国也经常被称为英国或
大不列颠。
同属于联合王国的这四个国家在某些领域紧密合作。像拥有同样
的货币和国防一样，他们也使用同一面国旗，联合王国国旗。然而，
它们之间仍有诸多区别。例如，英格兰、威尔士、苏格兰及北爱尔兰
实行不同的教育和法律制度。它们也有各自的传统，比如有自己的国
庆节和本国菜肴。它们甚至拥有自己的足球队，出征诸如“世界杯”
之类的赛事！
英国历史源远流长、别有趣味，等待你去探索，帮助你更加深入
地了解这一国家及其传统。英国历史上有四个不同民族在不同历史时
期执掌这个国家。无论你身处英国何方，这些民族的遗迹都随处可
见。第一族群是古罗马人，于公元一世纪进入英国。他们的一些伟大
成就包括建立了城镇、修建了道路。之后是盎格鲁—撒克逊人，于公
元五世纪到达英国，他们引入了英语的雏形，并改变了人们建造房屋
的方式。维京人于公元八世纪到来，留下了诸多新的词汇，并给英国
境内的许多地方命名。最后一个族群是诺曼人。十一世纪著名的黑斯
廷斯战役之后，诺曼人征服了英格兰，四处修建城堡，并改革了法律
制度。诺曼人即为法国人，许多法语单词因此慢慢进入了英语。
英国的历史文化引人入胜，可学之处比比皆是。学习这个国
家的历史，你的英国之旅将更为愉快。以首都伦敦为第一站，是
个不错的选择。伦敦是一个古老的港口城市，其历史可以追溯到
罗马时代。市内可供游览的历史遗址数不胜数，还有许多博物馆
陈列着来自英国各地的文物。在英国，历史与现代文化交融，新
旧传统并存，引人入胜。用心去观察，英国的过去与现在都将展
示在你面前，令你叹为观止。

Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
（2024·兰州高一下学期质检）For generations， many colleges and
universities in the United States have offered classes in a lot of different
subjects.But a new study suggests the current generation of college
students may not value liberal arts study programs as much as earlier
generations.It found many current students want programs that directly
connect to specific career paths.
In November 2019， the social research company Gallup and the
Strada Education Network reported on an opinion study of 340，000
Americans.Researchers asked the individuals about their educational
experiences after high school.
Out of those who completed a vocational （职业的） program，
meaning training for a specific job or technical skill， 57 percent strongly
agreed it was worth the cost.However， only 40 percent of people who
completed four-year study programs at a traditional college or university
said the same.
Dave Clayton is a senior vice president with Strada.He said it shows
that Americans want higher education to relate to jobs.In the past， many
Americans thought of higher education as a means， or method， of self-
improvement， Clayton says.
But this questioning of the value of a liberal arts education is nothing
new， notes Timothy Burke.He is a co-director of the Aydelotte
Foundation at Swarthmore College.However， even the biggest
companies today are not just looking for students with one area of
specialization.
In 2010， Steve Jobs， creator of Apple， stated that technology
alone is not enough.“It’s technology married with liberal arts ... that
yields the results that make our hearts sing，” he said.Similarly，
another technology company， Google， listed strong communication and
leadership abilities well above technical skills for its most successful
managers.
Burke suggests the way forward is not necessarily to get liberal arts
educators to change what they are teaching.Instead， they need to change
how they teach by making connections between the material they present
in classes and issues in the real world.That will help students better
understand how they can put what they are learning to use.

After Columbus set foot in the “New World” in 1492， many
European countries wanted to rule different parts of North America.Great
Britain， France， and Spain controlled almost the entire continent.
Great Britain had thirteen colonies （殖民地） along the east coast，
where most settlers lived.France — Great Britain’s great rival — had the
largest area of land， north and west of the colonies.But not many settlers
lived there.Same with Spain — it had a bigger chunk of land than Great
Britain but with far fewer people.
In 1754， Great Britain tried to grab more of North America by
invading lands controlled by the French.This led to a war known as the
French and Indian War.
A young man named George Washington served in the British army，
fighting against the French.Most American colonists wanted Great Britain
to win the war with France.And， after many years， it did.Great Britain
doubled the area of land it controlled.During the war， many British
soldiers were sent to America to fight.That had been very costly.King
George Ⅲ had to borrow massive amounts of money from other countries.
After winning the war， King George Ⅲ had to pay back what he
owed.In the king’s mind， he had been defending the American colonies
against the French.So he expected the colonies to help with the war
debt.This angered people in America.It wasn’t the colonists’ idea to
start the war.It had been fought because the king wanted more land.So
why should Americans have to pay？ King George Ⅲ didn’t listen to that
argument.The British government — called Parliament — taxed the
American colonists heavily to pay for the war debts.

Ⅱ.阅读七选五
（2024·山西五校高一下学期联考）For more than 2，000 years，
Mencius （also known by his birth name Meng Ke） has been widely
regarded as a principal interpreter of Confucianism and arguably the most
famous Confucian after Confucius himself.9.（ ） His eponymous
book， Mencius， is one of the four classics of the Confucian school.
In contrast to the sayings of Confucius， which are often short and
self-contained， the seven chapters of Mencius contain many long
dialogues.10.（ ） His views were respected， but not adopted.
In his old age， he wrote the book Mencius with the help of some of his
disciples.However， as he interpreted Confucius， Mencius also gave
Confucian ideas his own distinctive philosophical stamp.
11. （ ） Ever since their introduction， Mencius’ beliefs of
innate human goodness， the malleability （可塑性） of human nature，
benevolent government， and the people’s right to revolution have
greatly influenced the politics， ideology， culture and ethics of Chinese
society as well as the evolution of the Chinese nation.
First and foremost， Mencius believed that all human beings share an
innate goodness that can be cultivated through education and self-
discipline.He also developed Confucian thinking on benevolence （仁
慈） into the doctrine of the “benevolent government”.12.（ ）
One of his famous sayings was “The people are the most venerable，
next come the gods of land and crops， and the king is the least
important.” This saying contains some democratic spirit.
13. （ ） He said that if a ruler became a ruthless tyrant like
King Zhou of the Shang Dynasty （1600 BCE－1046 BCE）， the people
should have the right to overthrow and kill him.
In short， Mencius upheld Confucius’ principles and in some ways
developed Confucianism.Many later rulers and scholars respected him and
called him the “Second Sage”， second only to Confucius.
A. He introduced the “people first” concept.
B. He was also a great thinker and educator.
C. But Mencius was also in favour of the right of revolution.
D. His mother played a great role in his education and growth.
E. Mencius’ thoughts have a far-reaching influence on the Chinese
people.
F. He held that only those who are morally good can be good rulers or
officials.
G. And they are usually between Mencius and rulers of various states he
had visited.

（2024·兰州高一下学期质检）For generations， many colleges and universities in the United States have offered classes in a lot of different subjects.But a new study suggests the current generation of college students may not value liberal arts study programs as much as earlier generations.It found many current students want programs that directly connect to specific career paths.
In November 2019， the social research company Gallup and the Strada Education Network reported on an opinion study of 340，000 Americans.Researchers asked the individuals about their educational experiences after high school.
Out of those who completed a vocational （职业的） program， meaning training for a specific job or technical skill， 57 percent strongly agreed it was worth the cost.However， only 40 percent of people who completed four-year study programs at a traditional college or university said the same.
Dave Clayton is a senior vice president with Strada.He said it shows that Americans want higher education to relate to jobs.In the past， many Americans thought of higher education as a means， or method， of self-improvement， Clayton says.
But this questioning of the value of a liberal arts education is nothing new， notes Timothy Burke.He is a co-director of the Aydelotte Foundation at Swarthmore College.However， even the biggest companies today are not just looking for students with one area of specialization.
In 2010， Steve Jobs， creator of Apple， stated that technology alone is not enough.“It’s technology married with liberal arts ... that yields the results that make our hearts sing，” he said.Similarly， another technology company， Google， listed strong communication and leadership abilities well above technical skills for its most successful managers.
Burke suggests the way forward is not necessarily to get liberal arts educators to change what they are teaching.Instead， they need to change how they teach by making connections between the material they present in classes and issues in the real world.That will help students better understand how they can put what they are learning to use.
1.What did the study by Gallup and the Strada Education Network find？（ ）
A.People value liberal arts. B.People treasure job skills.
C.People ignore vocational training. D.People focus on book knowledge.
2.What did many Americans think of higher education in the past？（ ）
A.It should focus on a special area. B.It should relate to future careers.
C.It stresses all-round development. D.It stresses science and engineering.
3.What’s the author’s purpose of giving the examples of Steve Jobs and Google？（ ）
A.To prove the value of liberal arts. B.To show what makes companies great.
C.To show what are important to leaders. D.To prove the importance of technology.
4.What should liberal arts educators do according to Burke？（ ）
A.Change the teaching contents. B.Combine teaching with practice.
C.Improve their teaching methods. D.Focus on students’ future job skills.

名为何物？
联合王国、大不列颠、英国、英格兰——这些不同的名称是何意思，许多人感到困惑。那么，如果这些名称有区别的话，区别何在？稍微了解一下英国历史，就可以帮助你解开这个谜题。
十六世纪时，邻国威尔士并入英格兰王国。随后，苏格兰在十八世纪也加入进来，从而诞生了大不列颠王国。十九世纪时，爱尔兰王国加入，组成了大不列颠及爱尔兰联合王国。最后，在二十世纪时，爱尔兰南部脱离了联合王国，形成了今天的英国全称：大不列颠及北爱尔兰联合王国。大多数人只是使用简称：“联合王国。”来自联合王国的人被称为“英国人”，这意味着联合王国也经常被称为英国或大不列颠。
同属于联合王国的这四个国家在某些领域紧密合作。像拥有同样的货币和国防一样，他们也使用同一面国旗，联合王国国旗。然而，它们之间仍有诸多区别。例如，英格兰、威尔士、苏格兰及北爱尔兰实行不同的教育和法律制度。它们也有各自的传统，比如有自己的国庆节和本国菜肴。它们甚至拥有自己的足球队，出征诸如“世界杯”之类的赛事！
英国历史源远流长、别有趣味，等待你去探索，帮助你更加深入地了解这一国家及其传统。英国历史上有四个不同民族在不同历史时期执掌这个国家。无论你身处英国何方，这些民族的遗迹都随处可见。第一族群是古罗马人，于公元一世纪进入英国。他们的一些伟大成就包括建立了城镇、修建了道路。之后是盎格鲁—撒克逊人，于公元五世纪到达英国，他们引入了英语的雏形，并改变了人们建造房屋的方式。维京人于公元八世纪到来，留下了诸多新的词汇，并给英国境内的许多地方命名。最后一个族群是诺曼人。十一世纪著名的黑斯廷斯战役之后，诺曼人征服了英格兰，四处修建城堡，并改革了法律制度。诺曼人即为法国人，许多法语单词因此慢慢进入了英语。
英国的历史文化引人入胜，可学之处比比皆是。学习这个国家的历史，你的英国之旅将更为愉快。以首都伦敦为第一站，是个不错的选择。伦敦是一个古老的港口城市，其历史可以追溯到罗马时代。市内可供游览的历史遗址数不胜数，还有许多博物馆陈列着来自英国各地的文物。在英国，历史与现代文化交融，新旧传统并存，引人入胜。用心去观察，英国的过去与现在都将展示在你面前，令你叹为观止。
