类型  “文章体裁”突破文章出处题
(2023·全国乙卷·D篇节选)
高考真题
If you want to tell the history of the whole world, a history that does not privilege one part of humanity, you cannot do it through texts alone, because only some of the world has ever had texts, while most of the world, for most of the time, has not.[突破]锁定句子的谓语动词,去掉各种非核心成分,留下句子的主干。(锁定动词留主干) Writing is one of humanity’s later achievements, and until fairly recently even many literate(有文字的) societies recorded their concerns not only in writing but in things.
...
When we consider contact(联系) between literate and non-literate societies such as these, all our first-hand accounts are necessarily twisted, only one half of a dialogue. If we are to find the other half of that conversation, we have to read not just the texts, but the objects.
锁定细节判出处
35. Which of the following books is the text most likely selected from?
A. How Maps Tell Stories of the World
B. A Short History of Australia

Test 1
体裁:议论文 词数:311
话题:人工智能 建议用时:7分钟
  Will artificial intelligence (AI) replace my job? This is a question that many people think about these days. At present, the application of AI robotics in professional fields, as well as ChatGPT’s abilities to write essays, solve complex problems and more, has heightened moral concerns.
Some people see AI as the ultimate cure for society’s most fundamental problems, while others fear that AI will overtake human intelligence. These two views are based on the assumption that AI is better and smarter than humanity and may ultimately replace human decision-making. But given the fact that technology is the product of human civilization, the challenge from AI is something we have created for ourselves as we keep pushing back our own boundaries. In other words, AI’s progress, functions and future direction are all determined by the human brain.
Before AI becomes a threat to humanity, the international community should reach an agreement on the role it is to play. More importantly, related laws and regulations must ensure that AI will benefit society and prevent it from threatening human life. Robots, for example, are believed to develop emotional intelligence sometime, which enables them to recognize, understand and express emotions in a way that is similar to humans’, but we must avoid AI copying human emotions. Without legal restrictions, AI may become a social disaster.
The AI-driven new industrial revolution(革命) is irreversible. This, like previous ones, which introduced changes that had been unimaginable before, will certainly affect human employment. But it always turned out that humanity was able to adapt to each industrial revolution and create new forms of employment. Therefore, it’s unnecessary to worry AI will replace our jobs. While technology advances at a rapid pace, what we need to do is welcome the AI era rather than block its unfolding for fear of the unknown.
  【文章大意】 本文是一篇议论文。随着人工智能的兴起,人们担心它会对人类社会造成威胁,但如果相关法规能确保它有益于社会并防止它威胁人类生活,人类应以一种积极的态度来迎接先进的科学技术。
1. Why are some people concerned about AI?
A. It has been applied widely.
B. It has led to social problems.
C. It may outsmart humans.
D. It is the product of humanity.
答案:C
解析:细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Some people see AI as the ultimate cure... replace human decision-making.”可知,一些人把人工智能看作人类社会最基本问题的最终对策,而其他人害怕人工智能将会超越人类智力。这两种观点都是基于人工智能比人类更聪明的假设。故选C项。
2. How can we prevent AI’s potential threat?
A. By stirring emotions.
B. By setting restrictions.
答案:B
C. By blocking functions.
D. By changing regulations.
解析:推理判断题。根据第三段中的“but we must avoid AI copying human emotions. Without legal restrictions, AI may become a social disaster.”可知,我们必须阻止人工智能模仿人类感情。如果没有法律限制,人工智能也许会变成社会灾难。由此可推知,为了阻止人工智能给人类带来威胁,我们必须设定限制。故选B项。
3. What does the underlined word “irreversible” in the last paragraph mean?
A. Undesirable. B. Unbelievable.
C. Unpredictable. D. Unavoidable.
答案:D
解析:词义猜测题。根据画线词后的“This, like previous ones... will certainly affect human employment.”可知,就像之前的几次革命会带来之前难以想象的变化一样,人工智能肯定会影响人类的就业。此处通过理解like表示的类比关系可推知,画线词意为“不可避免的”。故选D项。
4. What does the writer suggest readers do with the coming of the AI era?
A. Deal with it positively.
B. Accept it passively.
答案:A
C. Respond to it randomly.
D. Defend it unconditionally.
解析:推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“it’s unnecessary to worry AI will replace our jobs... fear of the unknown.”可知,不必担心人工智能会取代我们的工作。虽然技术发展迅速,但我们需要做的是欢迎人工智能时代的到来,而不是因为害怕未知而阻止它的发展。由此可推知,作者建议读者积极地应对人工智能时代的到来。故选A项。

Test 2
体裁:说明文 词数:351
话题:数字双胞胎模型 建议用时:8分钟
  Imagine a future where science has created your twin. Not a flesh-and-blood twin, but one that recreates your flesh and blood, your bones, your heart, your brain-your whole body, in fact-as an extremely complicated computer model.
Your doctors can use this digital twin to work out how you will respond to a particular drug or medical procedure. They can even look further into the future, creating a “healthcast”, to forecast what diseases might happen to you or how your lifestyle will affect your health as you age. It is the ultimate in personalized medicine. This is the bold vision set out in Virtual You: How Building Your Digital Twin Will Revolutionize Medicine and Change Your Life by Peter Coveney, director of the Center for Computational Science, and Roger Highfield, science director of the Science Museum Group, UK.
Digital twins are already in widespread use in industries such as civil engineering. But these model systems are much simpler than the complex human body. Imagine all the parts that come together to make you work: from the 3 billion letters of your genome(基因组), the numerous molecules(分子) that make up your cells, the trillions of cells building your tissue and organs, and the environment having its input too. Now, imagine trying to create a model of this that is made to each unique individual and that predicts the changes that will take place over a lifetime. This is easier said than done. Changes in the systems biologists want to describe are usually different from what mathematicians describe as “non-linear”(非线性的).
Another complication is “emergence”: where the whole of a system is greater than the sum of its parts. This complexity challenges mathematics and pushes computing to the limit too.
But getting to the next level-a whole human individual-is going to require yet more data and a revolution in computing technology far beyond what is currently possible. Whether we will get there is an open question, but Virtual You shows us what scientists from different fields can achieve when they all work together.
  【文章大意】 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了在健康领域的数字双胞胎模型,包括其概念、发挥的作用、建模的难点和未来的发展趋势等。
1. What can be learned about your science-made twin according to Paragraph 1?
A. Your twin looks just like you.
B. Your twin knows your thoughts.
答案:C
C. Your twin exists on the computer.
D. Your twin is created out of your DNA.
解析:细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Not a flesh-and-blood twin, but one that recreates... computer model.”可知,不是血肉之躯的双胞胎,而是将你的血肉、骨骼、心脏、大脑——实际上你的整个身体——复制成一个极其复杂的计算机模型。由此可知,你的科学制作的双胞胎存在于电脑中。故选C项。
2. Why is it difficult to build a digital twin?
A. Human body is more complicated than models.
B. Digital twins are not widely used in industries.
C. Scientists lack enough data in building it.
D. Mathematicians and biologists hold different opinions.
解析:推理判断题。根据第三段内容可知,已在土木工程领域广泛应用的数字双胞胎模型远比复杂人体简单得多,给每个独特的个体建立数字双胞胎模型,说着容易做着难。生物学家想要描述的系统变化通常不同于数学家所描述的“非线性”。另一个使事情变得复杂的问题在于一个系统的整体大于其各部分的总和。这种复杂性对数学提出了挑战,也将计算机技术推向了极限。由此可推知,建立数字双胞胎的困难在于人体远比模型复杂。故选A项。
答案:A
3. What’s the author’s attitude towards the idea of a digital twin?
A. Optimistic. B. Uncertain.
C. Unconcerned. D. Skeptical.
答案:A
解析:观点态度题。根据最后一段末句可知,作者认为我们是否能实现这一目标是一个悬而未决的问题,但是《虚拟的你》这本书已经展示了来自不同领域的科学家们在共同努力下可以取得的成就。由此可推知,作者对数字双胞胎理念的态度是积极乐观的。故选A项。
4. What is the purpose of this text?
A. To stress the necessity of digital twins.
B. To show the effects of digital twins on future health.
C. To explain the building of digital twins in health.
D. To introduce new treatments for diseases in the future.
答案:C
解析:写作目的题。全文为读者介绍了在健康领域的数字双胞胎模型,包括其概念、发挥的作用、建模的难点和未来的发展趋势等。因此作者写本文的目的是解释健康领域数字双胞胎的建构。故选C项。

词义猜测是一种阅读技巧和能力,主要考查考生根据上下文猜测所指定的某一单词或词组的含义的能力。做题时应注意以下几点:
1. 利用上下文逻辑关系猜测词义
(1)反义关系——当文中出现but,however,yet,though,unlike,on the other hand,on the contrary等词或短语时,利用上下文构成的转折关系或对比关系猜测词义。
(2)同义关系——当文中出现similarly,like,or,namely,in other words,that is to say,and,also,as well as等词或短语时,利用上下文的相同或相近的意义猜测词义。
(3)因果关系——当文中出现because,since,because of,due to,so,therefore,so... that...,such...that...,result in,lead to等词或短语时,利用上下文构成的因果关系猜测词义。
2. 利用语法关系猜测词义
(1)下定义:be,mean,namely,refer to,that’s to say, be considered等后面的内容是对前面内容的解释说明,即对前面的词语下定义。
(2)同位语(从句):是对其前内容的解释说明。
(3)定语从句:注意被猜测词或短语之后which/who引导的非限制性定语从句。
(4)举例:利用such as,for example,for instance,like,including等词或短语后的内容进行猜测。
(5)标点符号:注意破折号、冒号、分号后的内容;注意引号、括号中的内容。
3. 利用构词法猜测词义
(1)派生法:①否定前缀或后缀,与词根构成反义词,如dis-,un-,in-,-less;②后缀改变词性一般不改变词义,如discover→discovery;③前缀co-表示“共同”;re-表示“又,再”;eco-表示“经济,生态”。
(2)合成法:依据合成法组成新词,结合语境猜词义,如football。
(3)转化法:一种词性用作另一种词性而单词不变,如形容词→动词;动词→名词;名词→动词。
4. 利用上下文语境猜测词义
利用上下文语境猜测词义是词义猜测题最常用的方法,考生结合上下文,利用语境推测出生词的含义或熟词生义。
类型  利用句意吻合解句意理解题

话题:植物保护 建议用时:6分钟
  Scientists have shown how plants can protect themselves against genetic(基因的) damage caused by environmental stresses. The growing tips of plant roots and shoots have an in-built mechanism(机制) that spells cell death if DNA damage is detected, avoiding passing on faulty DNA.
Plants have small populations of stem cells(干细胞) at the tips of their roots and shoots, which enable them to continuously grow and produce new tissues throughout their lifetime. These stem cells serve as ancestors for plant tissues and organs. However, any genetic faults present in the stem cells will continue to exist and be passed on permanently throughout the plant’s life, which could last thousands of years.
Given the critical role of stem cells and their exposure to potentially dangerous environments at the growing tips of roots and shoots, safeguards are necessary to prevent stem cell faults from becoming fixed. Researchers Nick Fulcher and Robert Sablowski, funded by the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council, aimed to uncover these protective mechanisms. Through experiments involving X-rays and chemicals, they discovered that stem cells were more sensitive to DNA damage compared to other cells.
When DNA damage occurs, the cells have the capacity to detect it and cause programmed cells to die, preventing the propagation of the damaged genetic code to the rest of the plant tissues. This process has similarities to the safeguard mechanism found in animal cells, which has been broadly studied due to its relevance in preventing cancer.
The identification of a similar protective system in plants is of great interest in the field of plant development. It also helps scientists develop plants that can better handle environmental stresses. So knowledge of how plants deal with these stresses is of fundamental significance to agricultural science’s response to climate change.
  【文章大意】 本文是一篇说明文。科学家们已经证实植物如何保护自己免受环境压力造成的遗传损害,即植物拥有内置机制,阻止干细胞中的基因缺陷遗传。
1. What is the function of the in-built mechanism in plants?
A. To produce more roots and shoots.
B. To increase the overall lifetime of the plant.
C. To enhance plant growth and nutrient intake.
D. To stop genetic faults in stem cells passing on.
解析:细节理解题。根据第一段中的“The growing tips of plant roots and shoots have an in-built mechanism(机制) that spells cell death if DNA damage is detected, avoiding passing on faulty DNA. (植物根系和嫩芽的生长尖端有一种内置机制,如果检测到DNA损伤,就会导致细胞死亡,从而避免将有缺陷的DNA传递下去。)”可知,植物内置机制的功能是阻止干细胞中的基因缺陷传递下去。故选D。
答案:D
2. What can we know about stem cells in plants according to the text?
A. They are relatively abundant in quantity.
B. They are resistant to environmental stresses.
C. They make quick response to DNA damage.
D. They have the ability to repair damaged DNA.
答案:C
解析:细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句“Through experiments involving X-rays and chemicals, they discovered that stem cells were more sensitive to DNA damage compared to other cells.(通过涉及X射线和化学物质的实验,他们发现与其他细胞相比,干细胞对DNA损伤更敏感。)”可知,植物中的干细胞会对DNA损伤作出快速反应。故选C。
3. What does the underlined word “propagation” in Paragraph 4 mean?
A. Spread. B. Change.
C. Existence. D. Self-repair.
答案:A
解析:词义猜测题。根据画线词所在句中的“When DNA damage occurs, the cells have the capacity to detect it and cause programmed cells to die”可知,当DNA受损时,细胞有能力检测到它,并导致程序性细胞死亡,从而阻止受损的遗传密码传播到植物组织的其他部分。由此可推知,画线词意为“传播”,与A项意思相近。故选A。
4. What does the last paragraph focus on?
A. The way of dealing with climate change on the earth.
B. The significance of identifying the protective system in plants.
C. The method of ensuring plant survival under environmental stresses.
D. The urgency of developing plants that can handle environmental stresses.
解析:推理判断题。根据最后一段“The identification of a similar protective system in plants is of great interest in the field of plant development. It also helps scientists develop plants that can better handle environmental stresses. So knowledge of how plants deal with these stresses is of fundamental significance to agricultural science’s response to climate change.(在植物发育领域发现植物中类似的保护系统具有重要意义。它还有助于科学家们培育出能够更好地应对环境压力的植物。因此,了解植物如何应对这些压力对农业科学应对气候变化具有重要意义。)”可推知,最后一段重点介绍了发现植物保护系统的意义。故选B。

体裁:议论文 词数:326
话题:多元宇宙 建议用时:7分钟
  If you live on this planet, there’s a decent chance you’ve seen the classic Star Trek episode, in which Captain Kirk and several members find themselves in what appears to be another universe.
These days, it seems the idea of the multiverse-many worlds-is having its Hollywood moment. Its appeal as a storytelling device is obvious-characters explore a multi-world with varying degrees of similarity to our own, as well as different versions of themselves. Hence, it has been fully established in mainstream pop culture.
While Hollywood can’t seem to get enough of the multiverse, it remains deeply controversial(有争议的) among scientists. Advocates on the two sides show no mercy toward each other in their books and on their blogs. But physicists didn’t pull the idea out of thin air-rather, several distinct lines of reasoning seem to point to the multiverse’s existence. However, critics warn that making the multiverse legal could make it harder for the public to distinguish speculative(推测性的) theories from established fact, making it more difficult to keep pseudoscience(伪科学) at bay. Giving credit to such speculation risks “turning fundamental physics into pseudoscience”.
The multiverse controversy is rooted in the idea of testability. If we can’t interact with these other universes, or detect them in any way, some experts insist that reduces them to mere philosophical speculation. But Carroll, an advocate for “many worlds”, argues that mathematics is the language describing our physical theories. If Schr dinger’s equation(方程), on which quantum(量子) mechanics rests, predicts the existence of many worlds, so be it.
Could a more expansive view of the universe itself be the next breakthrough? As Siegfried puts it, “Every time in the past that we’ve thought, 'We’ve got it; this is what the whole universe is'-the people who’ve said, 'Maybe there’s more than one of those' have always turned out to be right.”
  【文章大意】 本文是一篇议论文。文章围绕多元宇宙在好莱坞电影中的流行,探讨了多元宇宙是否存在。
1. Why is Hollywood so occupied with the multiverse?
A. It makes for engaging plots.
B. It is a much-talked-about topic.
C. It is helpful to popularize science.
D. It dominates the mainstream pop culture.
解析:细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Its appeal as a storytelling device is obvious... different versions of themselves.”可知,作为一种讲故事的手段,它(好莱坞多元宇宙电影)的吸引力是显而易见的——(电影中的)角色们探索一个与我们自己的世界有不同程度相似性的多元世界以及他们自己的不同变本。由此可知,好莱坞之所以青睐多元宇宙题材是因为其故事性强,故选A项。
答案:A
2. What do the underlined words “out of thin air” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Out of date.
B. Out of place.
答案:C
C. Out of nowhere.
D. Out of the question.
解析:词义猜测题。据画线词后破折号的内容“rather, several distinct lines of reasoning seem to point to the multiverse’s existence”可知,有几种不同的推理方法似乎指向了多元宇宙的存在。由此可知,物理学家不是凭空提出这些想法的,C项与画线词的意义最为接近,故选C项。
3. According to the opponents, the basic standard of fundamental physics is that     .
A. it can be detected somehow
B. it can be reasoned logically
C. it can be interpreted philosophically
D. it can be predicted by mathematics equation
解析:推理判断题。根据第四段中的“If we can’t interact with these other universes, or detect them in any way, some experts insist that reduces them to mere philosophical speculation.”可知,如果我们不能与其他宇宙互动,或者以任何方式检测到它们,一些专家坚持说,这将使它们沦为纯粹的哲学推测。由此可以推断,反对者认为基础物理学不是建立在哲学推测上的,而是能实实在在以某种方式检测出来的,故选A项。
答案:A
4. What might be the author’s attitude toward the multiverse?
A. Doubtful. B. Dismissive.
C. Unclear. D. Approving.
答案:D
解析:观点态度题。根据最后一段中对问题“对宇宙本身更广阔的认识会是下一个突破吗?”的回答“每次在过去我们都认为,'我们已经了解了,整个宇宙就是如此'——那些说'也许不止一个'的人总会被证明是正确的”可知,作者对于多元宇宙的看法是支持的、赞成的,故选D项。

(第三段第四句)However, critics warn that making the multiverse legal could make it harder for the public to distinguish speculative(推测性的) theories from established fact, making it more difficult to keep pseudoscience(伪科学) at bay.

话题:龙的传说 建议用时:6分钟
  There are very few countries in the world that don’t have some sort of legend(传说) or connection with dragons. Here are some great destinations to get a fix on dragons.
France
Calais in France has a dragon standing 33 feet tall, 82 feet long, with a wingspan of more than 55 feet. It walks and moves as you would imagine a dragon does, and you can take it for a ride. The Calais dragon is a mechanical wonder, which is nearly too real to be called a fairground creature.
Wales
In the UK, you will find a proud dragon country, Wales. Here there is the legend of two dragons: one white and one red. Wales’s tale describes the two dragons fighting and the red one winning, so you will find it difficult to hurry about the country without coming across a red dragon. Dragons are sold in souvenir shops, sit by ancient castles, hang around in King Arthur’s Labyrinth, and are featured on the national flag.
Norway
The Vikings knew a thing or two about dragons. In the lovely film How to Train Your Dragon, they even flew them. But seriously, when you dig into Norway’s Viking history and legends, you will find dragons mentioned everywhere, though not as cute as those in the film. From the figurehead in the Viking Ship Museum to jewelry, and decorations on buildings, be on the lookout for them when visiting Norway.
Bhutan
The Druk or Thunder Dragon, is the national symbol and appears everywhere. The country is called the Land of the Thunder Dragon, or the Kingdom of Druk, and it’s part of the national anthem(国歌) and its flag. Despite its fearful name, it’s actually rather cute. Legend has it that the sound of thunder through the mountains is actually the dragon roaring.
  【文章大意】 本文是一篇应用文。世界上很多国家都有与龙有关的传说,文章介绍了四个国家意义非凡的龙。
1. What can we learn about the Calais dragon?
A. It’s a character from a popular film.
B. It’s a creation designed for entertainment.
C. It’s a real creature trained for rides.
D. It’s a sculpture displayed in a museum.
答案:B
解析:推理判断题。根据France部分中的“It walks and moves... The Calais dragon is a mechanical wonder, which is nearly too real to be called a fairground creature.”可知,加来龙可以走路和移动,人们可以骑它。它是一个机械奇迹,它几乎太真实了,以至于不能被称为游乐场生物。由此可推知,加来龙是为娱乐而设计的机械龙,故选B。
2. What do Wales and Bhutan have in common on dragons?
A. They feature dragons on their flags.
B. They include dragons in their anthems.
C. They have a legend of two dragons.
D. They describe dragons as cute images.
答案:A
解析:细节理解题。根据Wales部分中的“Dragons... are featured on the national flag.”以及Bhutan部分中的“it’s part of the national anthem(国歌) and its flag”可知,威尔士和不丹的国旗上都有龙,故选A。
3. Which country associates dragons with a natural phenomenon?
A. France. B. Wales.
C. Norway. D. Bhutan.
答案:D
解析:细节理解题。根据Bhutan部分中的“the sound of thunder through the mountains is actually the dragon roaring”可知,在不丹的传说中,穿过山间的雷声实际上是龙的咆哮声。由此可知,把龙和一种自然现象(雷声)联系在一起的国家是不丹,故选D。

话题:帝王蝶 建议用时:6分钟
  Each fall, millions of butterflies across the U. S. and Canada fly up to 3,000 miles to southwestern Mexico. Travelers can see the butterflies overwintering on the Western Monarch Trail, a 465-mile, road trip-friendly conservation initiative that links over a dozen stops along the route.
Helping the butterflies
Organizers created educational panels in English and Spanish explaining the butterflies’ annual traveling and their trouble. The signs also outline ways travelers can help the butterflies recover, such as by supporting chemical-free farms and planting native nectar(花蜜) gardens.
Why butterflies fly to the California coast
Many stops on the trail, including Pismo State Beach Monarch Butterfly Grove and Andrew Molera State Park, are overwintering sites where, from October to February, travelers can see thousands of butterflies gathering in forests in areas with mild temperatures, dappled(斑驳的) sunlight, high dampness, and little to no wind.
Other sites, like the San Luis Obispo Botanical Garden and Avila Valley Barn, grow flowers that provide sugary, high-calorie food for the butterflies to eat. Butterflies settling here demonstrate how vital nectar plants are to their survival.
How to explore the Western Monarch Trail
The butterflies’ behavior varies at different times of day and depends on the weather. In the mornings, while temperatures are still cool, step out of the cabin(木屋) in the Fernwood Resort where you stay overnight, and you’ll find many butterflies hanging together on the branches and trunks of trees at the overwintering sites. As the day starts to heat up-typically by late morning or early afternoon-you’ll be amazed at the phenomenon “sunburst”-the butterflies start flying around in search of nearby nectar. Keep your eyes skyward. Don’t grab your camera. Just be in the moment.
  【文章大意】 本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了成千上万只蝴蝶从美国和加拿大迁徙至墨西哥中部,以及旅行者可以通过西部帝王蝶之路观赏这些在冬季的蝴蝶。
1. What’s the Western Monarch Trail initiative aimed at?
A. Providing a travel route.
B. Encountering butterflies.
C. Promoting organic farming.
D. Advocating species conservation.
答案:D
解析:细节理解题。根据第一段中“Western Monarch Trail”的同位语“a 465-mile, road trip-friendly conservation initiative”可知,Western Monarch Trail是一个465英里、适合公路旅行的保护倡议。由此可知,Western Monarch Trail的目的就是倡导物种保护,故选D。
2. What do we know about Andrew Molera State Park?
A. It holds many nectar gardens.
B. It’s pleasant throughout winter.
C. It has sufficient food for butterflies.
D. It’s home to butterflies all year around.
答案:B
解析:细节理解题。根据第三段中的“from October to February... high dampness, and little to no wind”可知,Andrew Molera State Park的冬天很舒适,故选B。
3. What is guaranteed for the travelers along the Western Monarch Trail?
A. Signs to guide the route.
B. Cameras for recording videos.
C. Ready shelters to stay overnight.
D. Experiences of watching “sunburst” at dawn.
答案:C
解析:细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“step out of the cabin(木屋) in the Fernwood Resort where you stay overnight”可知,Western Monarch Trail提供过夜的住处,故选C。

段落大意题考查段落的主要意思,是对某个段落基本内容的简缩和概括。要求考生用准确、简练的语言把一个段落的主要意思明确完整地表达出来。做题时要特别注意段落的首句和尾句。段落的组织形式一般有以下几种:
“总-分”式(总-分/总-分-总)——段落首句为主题句,段落其他句子是例子或论证。
“分-总”式——段落开头描述细节或层层推进的论述,段尾是段落主题句。
“分-总-分”式——段落开头列举事例,通过事例得出结论,这个结论就是段落主题句,后面的内容再陈述主题,再论述细节。
无主题句式——没有明显段落主题句时,可以通过一些关键词总结归纳出段落主题句。

We all know fresh is best when it comes to food. However, most produce at the store went through weeks of travel and covered hundreds of miles before reaching the table. While farmer’s markets are a solid choice to reduce the journey, Babylon Micro-Farm (BMF) shortens it even more.
BMF is an indoor garden system. It can be set up for a family. Additionally, it could serve a larger audience such as a hospital, restaurant or school. The innovative design requires little effort to achieve a reliable weekly supply of fresh greens.
Specifically, it’s a farm that relies on new technology. By connecting through the Cloud, BMF is remotely monitored. Also, there is a convenient app that provides growing data in real time. Because the system is automated, it significantly reduces the amount of water needed to grow plants. Rather than watering rows of soil, the system provides just the right amount to each plant. After harvest, users simply replace the plants with a new pre-seeded pod(容器) to get the next growth cycle started.
Moreover, having a system in the same building where it’s eaten means zero emissions(排放) from transporting plants from soil to salad. In addition, there’s no need for pesticides and other chemicals that pollute traditional farms and the surrounding environment.
BMF employees live out sustainability in their everyday lives. About half of them walk or bike to work. Inside the office, they encourage recycling and waste reduction by limiting garbage cans and avoiding single-use plastic. “We are passionate about reducing waste, carbon and chemicals in our environment,” said a BMF employee.

理解全文主旨类题目主要考查考生对一篇文章的整体理解,要求考生具备在速读中准确掌握全文主旨的能力,考生需要在理解全文内容的基础上,通过归纳概括、推理判断等逻辑思维活动,概括出全文主旨。在寻找和归纳全文主旨时,我们应该注意以下几点:
1. 主题句是文章首句——开门见山提出主题,新闻报道、说明文和议论文的主旨通常在开头部分。
2. 主题句在中间段——文章首段是举例子或谈论个别现象时,主题句通常在后面的段落。
3. 主题句在文末——记叙文、议论文的尾段往往隐含主题句。
4. 最后观点为主题句——文章中出现了两种或两种以上的不同观点,在文章最后作者提出的观点为主题句。
5. 注意高频词汇——文章中的高频词一般是体现主旨的关键词。
6. 利用转折推断——段落中出现转折的表达(如but, however, on the contrary, although等)时,其后的内容往往是主题句。
7. 利用逆向思维/排除法——利用逆向法和逻辑排除法,排除选项中错误的选项,确定正确答案。

The Stanford marshmallow(棉花糖) test was originally conducted by psychologist Walter Mischel in the late 1960s. Children aged four to six at a nursery school were placed in a room. A single sugary treat, selected by the child, was placed on a table. Each child was told if they waited for 15 minutes before eating the treat, they would be given a second treat. Then they were left alone in the room. Follow-up studies with the children later in life showed a connection between an ability to wait long enough to obtain a second treat and various forms of success.
As adults we face a version of the marshmallow test every day. We’re not tempted(诱惑) by sugary treats, but by our computers, phones, and tablets-all the devices that connect us to the global delivery system for various types of information that do to us what marshmallows do to preschoolers.
We are tempted by sugary treats because our ancestors lived in a calorie-poor world, and our brains developed a response mechanism to these treats that reflected their value-a feeling of reward and satisfaction. But as we’ve reshaped the world around us, dramatically reducing the cost and effort involved in obtaining calories, we still have the same brains we had thousands of years ago, and this mismatch is at the heart of why so many of us struggle to resist tempting foods that we know we shouldn’t eat.
A similar process is at work in our response to information. Our formative environment as a species was information-poor, so our brains developed a mechanism that prized new information. But global connectivity has greatly changed our information environment. We are now ceaselessly bombarded(轰炸) with new information. Therefore, just as we need to be more thoughtful about our caloric consumption, we also need to be more thoughtful about our information consumption, resisting the temptation of the mental “junk food” in order to manage our time most effectively.

话题:欣然接受变化 建议用时:7分钟
  Change can be unsettling. Good or bad, exciting or unexpected, there’s an undeniable anxiety that accompanies seeing our life shifts. Thankfully, nature reminds us that entering a new season in our lives is nothing to fear but something to enjoy.
What’s now known as “leaf-peeping” has become a highly profitable form of tourism in the United States. A research shows that across 24 states in the eastern half of the country, fall foliage(叶子) tourism contributes more than $30 billion to local economies. And even though climate change has made it more difficult to predict when exactly foliage will peak, it hasn’t stopped people from trying to figure it out. Tourism leaders from the Great Smoky Mountains recently released their annual fall foliage prediction map which helps travelers plan out when they have the best chance to catch those beautiful autumn views.
Perhaps part of what makes the foliage so special is the belief that it’s temporary. Eventually, branches will become bare, and we’ll stop taking photos for social media. And as the seasons change and we feel that familiar longing for what was, trees will once again embrace(欣然接受) their evolution.
Even when they aren’t decorated with flashy fall colors and their internal systems slow down, trees are still supporting the ecosystem. Their fallen leaves are broken down by bacteria and fungi and provide the soil with nutrients the tree needs to grow. Insects take shelter in their bark, eventually becoming food for other wildlife seeking a place to nest. Their strong roots stabilize the soil, preventing erosion(侵蚀) from winter snowmelt.
Right now, trees around the country are already beginning to welcome their next chapter. During this time of the year, it feels like forests are just offering endless joy for free. And fall foliage is an everlasting reminder that the growth with changes is beautiful.
  【文章大意】 本文是一篇说明文。文章借助“窥叶”旅行在美国的流行以及树木欣然接受季节变化来告诉人们:无畏变化,要懂得享受变化。
1. What does “leaf-peeping” refer to?
A. A form of tourism where people go to see fall foliage.
B. A measure taken by tourism leaders to protect trees.
C. A research about the effects of climate change on trees.
D. A method for predicting when fall foliage will peak.
解析:推理判断题。根据第二段中的“'leaf-peeping' has become a highly profitable form of tourism”可以判断,“窥叶”是一种高利润的旅游形式;再根据本段中的“fall foliage(叶子) tourism”和“their annual fall foliage prediction map which helps travelers plan out when they have the best chance to catch those beautiful autumn views”可知,游客会利用年度落叶预测地图来规划他们什么时候有最好的机会去捕捉这些秋季美景。据此可以推断,“窥叶”指的正是人们去欣赏秋季落叶美景的一种旅游形式。故选A。
答案:A
2. Why do people find fall foliage so special?
A. It brings change to daily life.
B. It contributes to local economies.
C. It helps preserve ecosystems.
D. It lasts only for a short time.
答案:D
解析:细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Perhaps part of what makes the foliage so special is the belief that it’s temporary.”可知,人们认为秋季树叶特别的原因在于其短暂性,即存在的时间短暂。故选D。
3. What can we learn about trees in fall from Paragraph 4?
A. They are easily damaged by bacteria.
B. They stop rooting due to cold weather.
C. They continue providing shelter for wildlife.
D. They play a role in reducing snowfall.
答案:C
解析:推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Insects take shelter in their bark, eventually becoming food for other wildlife seeking a place to nest.”可知,昆虫躲在树皮中,最终成为其他寻找巢穴的野生生物的食物。由此可以推断,秋天树木继续为野生生物提供庇护。故选C。
4. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?
A. Trees Supporting the Ecosystem
B. Lesson from Trees: Embracing Change
C. Fall Foliage Tourism in the US
D. Climate Change in the Season of Fall
解析:标题归纳题。作者在第一段表明主题“大自然提醒我们,进入生活的新季节并不可怕,而是值得享受的”;第二段讲到了“窥叶”旅行在美国的流行;第三段又讲到了秋天落叶旅行流行的原因,以及“树木再次欣然接受它们的进化”;第四段讲到了秋天树木的作用;最后一段作者再次讲到了“随着变化的成长是美丽的”。因此B项“树木带来的启示:拥抱变化”能够概括文章内容,适合作本文的标题。故选B。
答案:B
