Ⅳ.【文章大意】 本文为一篇说明文。文章讲述了面对家庭冲突或者隔阂,相比疏远,修复是更好的方法。
1.D 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Search ‘toxic parents’, and you’ll find more than 38,000 posts, largely urging young adults to cut ties with their families. The idea is to safeguard one’s mental health from offensive parents.”(搜索“有毒父母”,你会发现超过38 000个帖子,主要是敦促年轻人切断与家人的联系。这个想法是为了保护一个人的心理健康不受无礼父母的伤害。)可知,年轻人选择与家庭切断联系是为了保护自己,免于受到心理上的伤害。故选D。
2.B 词义猜测题。文章第三段画线词后的句子“…that after estrangement, adult children are not suddenly less dependent.”(……疏远过后,成年子女并不会突然变得不那么依赖别人。)是that引导的表语从句,是对主语catch的解释说明;下文“In fact, they feel abandoned and betrayed, because in the unconscious, it doesn’t matter who is doing the leaving; the feeling that remains is ‘being left’.” (事实上,他们感到被抛弃和背叛,因为在潜意识中,谁离开并不重要;剩下的感觉是“被遗弃”。)对前一句补充说明,子女选择与原生家庭疏远后,产生的结果是感觉被抛弃与背叛,并没有真正独立。所以画线单词catch表示后果或者问题。故选B。
3.B 细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段“What I have found is that most of these families need repair, not permanent break-up.” (我发现,大多数这样的家庭需要修复,而不是永久疏远。)可知,作者建议年轻人去修复家庭关系而不是疏远。根据本段中“How can we love others, and ourselves, if not through accepting the limitations that come with being a human Good relationships are not the result of a perfect level of harmony but rather of successful adjustments.”(如果不接受人类与生俱来的局限性,我们怎么能爱别人和自己呢 良好的关系不是完美和谐的结果,而是成功调整的结果。)可知,作者这里用反问句向年轻人建议,要认识到人类的局限性,才能爱家人以及爱自己。即接受家人的不完美,调整自己的心态。故选B。
4.C 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Search ‘toxic parents’, and you’ll find more than 38,000 posts, largely urging young adults to cut ties with their families. The idea is to safeguard one’s mental health from offensive parents.”(搜索“有毒父母”,你会发现超过38 000个帖子,主要是敦促年轻人切断与家人的联系。这个想法是为了保护一个人的心理健康不受无礼父母的伤害。)可知,开篇作者先提出了一个当下普遍存在的趋势,即年轻人在处理家庭冲突时,选择疏远家庭。根据本段中“However, as a psychoanalyst (精神分析学家), I’ve seen that trend in recent years become a way to manage conflicts in the family, and I have seen the severe impacts estrangement (疏远) has on both sides of the divide. This is a self-help trend that creates much harm.”(然而,作为一名精神分析学家,我发现近年来这种趋势已经成为处理家庭冲突的一种方式,并且我看到了疏远对产生分歧的双方的严重影响。这是一种自助的趋势,会造成很大的伤害。)可知,作者紧接着通过转折连词however指出这种疏远处理方式是错误的,会带来伤害。因此可推知,作者写这篇文章是为了论述与目前趋势相反的观点。故选C。
Ⅴ.【文章大意】 这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了笑给我们带来的好处。
1.C 根据上文“Many people’s mood goes slightly down as the days are getting shorter. Even if you don’t suffer from SAD(Seasonal Affective Disorder)—also called winter depression—you might feel different than just a few weeks ago.”可知,随着白天越来越短,许多人的情绪都会有点低落。即使你没有遭受SAD(季节性情感障碍),也被称为冬季抑郁症,的折磨,你也可能会感觉与几周前不同。文章紧接着提出一个问题“Does that sound familiar ”(听起来是不是很熟悉 ),所以空处承接上文,提供解决方案。C项 (如果是这样,我可以给你提供一个可能的解决方案!)符合语境。故选C。
2.E 根据上文“Dr Madan Kataria who is a medical doctor and created Laughter Yoga did quite a bit of research and found that laughter is a mild antidepressant (抗抑郁药) as it releases endorphins and serotonin.”(创造了“笑声瑜伽”的医学博士Madan Kataria做了很多研究并发现笑是一种温和的抗抑郁药,因为它会释放内啡肽和血清素。)和下文“…hormones and natural opiates play a big role in it—and without side effects.”(……荷尔蒙和天然麻醉剂在其中发挥了重要作用——而且没有副作用。)可知,本段主要介绍笑的医疗作用,E项中的natural painkiller和下文的natural opiates对应。E项 (更重要的是,笑可以成为一种天然的止痛药。)符合语境。故选E。
3.B 空处为段落主题句。根据下文“It reduces the levels of stress hormones in our bodies.”(它能降低我们体内的应激激素水平。)可知,本段主要说明了笑能减压。下文中的“…reduces the levels of stress hormones…”和B项中的a great stress relief对应。B项 (笑也是一种很好的减压方式。)符合语境。故选B。
4.G 根据上文“Some people go to the gym first thing in the morning. If that’s not your thing, just keep in mind that laughter is an aerobic exercise (有氧运动)—probably with much more fun!”( 有些人早上第一件事就是去健身房。如果你不喜欢,只要记住笑是一种有氧运动——可能会更有趣!)可知,本段主要说明的是笑是一种有氧运动。G项 (研究发现,笑十分钟相当于在划船机上练三十分钟。)符合语境。故选G。
5.F 根据上文“For more health benefits, check out the PubMed research database where you’ll find over 2,600 references to laughter.”(要了解更多的健康益处,请查看PubMed研究数据库,在那里你可以找到2600多份关于笑的参考资料。)可知,空处和上文并列,也是了解笑对健康的益处的方法。F项 (或者你可以简单地加入我们,参加下一节Mirthy课。)符合语境。故选F。
Ⅵ.【文章大意】 本文是一篇记叙文,主要讲述了特殊教育老师谢小华为需要特殊照顾的残障孩童奉献自我的事迹。
1.fulfilment 考查名词。空处和and前的happiness并列,应用名词。fulfilment意为“满足感”。故填fulfilment。
2.has worked/has been working 考查时态和主谓一致。根据句中的时间状语for the past 27 years可知,这里可用现在完成时,表示动作从过去某一时间开始,一直持续到现在,还可能继续下去,强调对现在产生的影响;也可用现在完成进行时,表示动作从某一时间开始,一直持续到现在,可能仍然要继续下去,强调动作的持续性。主语who指代Xie,为第三人称单数,所以谓语动词应用单数形式。故填has worked/has been working。
3.of 考查介词。 be aware of意为“意识到”。故填of。
4.specialized 考查形容词。空处应用形容词作定语,修饰后面的care。specialized意为“专门的,专用的”。故填specialized。
5.was assigned 考查时态、语态和主谓一致。根据句中的in 2013和became可知,这里表示过去发生的事情,应用一般过去时。主语she为第三人称单数,且和assign之间是动宾关系,所以应用被动语态,且谓语动词应用单数形式。故填was assigned。
6.To ensure 考查非谓语动词。根据句意可知,这里表示目的,应用不定式作目的状语。单词位于句首,首字母应大写。故填To ensure。
7.patiently 考查副词。空处应用副词,修饰谓语动词coached。patiently意为“耐心地”。故填patiently。
8.a 考查冠词。develop a swollen throat意为“患喉咙肿胀”,为固定搭配。故填a。
9.who/that 考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知,空处引导定语从句,指代指人的先行词students,且在从句中作主语,所以可用who或that引导。故填who/that。
10.tasked 考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知,本句的谓语动词是was,所以空处应用非谓语动词。逻辑主语over 30 teachers和task之间是动宾关系,所以应用过去分词,作后置定语。故填tasked。单元小测(Unit 3)

Search “toxic parents”, and you’ll find more than 38,000 posts, largely urging young adults to cut ties with their families. The idea is to safeguard one’s mental health from offensive parents. However, as a psychoanalyst (精神分析学家), I’ve seen that trend in recent years become a way to manage conflicts in the family, and I have seen the severe impacts estrangement (疏远) has on both sides of the divide. This is a self-help trend that creates much harm.
“Cancelling” your parent can be seen as an extension of a cultural trend aimed at correcting imbalances in power and systemic inequality. Today’s social justice values respond to this reality, calling on us to criticize oppressive and harmful figures and to gain power for those who have been powerless. But when adult children use the most effective tool they have—themselves—to gain a sense of security and ban their parents from their lives, the roles are simply switched, and the pain only deepens.
The catch is that after estrangement, adult children are not suddenly less dependent. In fact, they feel abandoned and betrayed, because in the unconscious, it doesn’t matter who is doing the leaving; the feeling that remains is “being left”. They carry the ghosts of their childhood, tackling the emotional reality that those who raised us can never truly be left behind, no matter how hard we try.
What I have found is that most of these families need repair, not permanent break-up. How can one learn how to negotiate about needs, to create boundaries and to trust How can we love others, and ourselves, if not through accepting the limitations that come with being a human Good relationships are not the result of a perfect level of harmony but rather of successful adjustments.
To pursue dialogue instead of estrangement will be hard and painful work. It can’t be a single project of “self-help”, because at the end of the day, real intimacy (亲密关系) is achieved by working through the injuries of the past together. In most cases of the family conflict, repair is possible and preferable to estrangement—and it’s worth the work.
( )1.Why do young people cut ties with the family
A.To gain an independent life.
B.To follow a tendency towards social justice.
C.To restore harmony in the family.
D.To protect their psychological well-being.
( )2.What does the underlined word “catch” in Paragraph 3 mean
A.Response. B.Problem.
C.Bond. D.Division.
( )3.To manage the family conflict, what should young adults do in the author’s view
A.Break down boundaries.
B.Accept imperfection of family members.
C.Live up to their parents’ expectations.
D.Repair a family item that has broken up.
( )4.What’s the author’s purpose of writing the text
