1 / 1Section Ⅱ Reading and Thinking
MOTHER OF TEN THOUSAND BABIES
  “Life is precious① . ...[1]To a person nothing is more precious than their life, and if they entrust② me with that life, how could I refuse that trust, saying I’m cold, hungry, or tired?” These words of Dr Lin Qiaozhi give us a look into the heart of this amazing woman, and what carried her through③a life of hard choices.
  As a five-year-old girl, Lin Qiaozhi was deeply affected by her mother’s death.[2]At age 18, instead of following the traditional path of marriage④ like the majority⑤ of girls, she chose to work and study. “Why should girls learn so much? Finding a good husband should be their final goal!” her brother complained⑥, thinking of the high tuition⑦ fees⑧.[3]She responded⑨, “I’d rather stay single to study all my life!” Later, she went on to study medicine as she had wished.
  In 1929, Lin graduated from Peking Union⑩ Medical College (PUMC) with the Wenhai Scholarship , the highest prize given to graduates.[4]She immediately became the first woman ever to be hired as a resident physician in the OB-GYN department of the PUMC Hospital.Within six months, she was named a chief resident physician, a position that usually took four years to achieve.After working for a few years, she was sent to study in Europe and then, in 1939, in the US.She greatly impressed her American colleagues , who invited her to stay.Dr Lin, however, rejected the offer.She wanted to serve the women and children at home.
  [1]句中nothing is more precious than their life 为“否定词+形容词比较级+than ...”结构,表示最高级的含义。动词-ing形式saying ...作伴随状语。
  [2]following the traditional path ...是动词-ing短语作宾语。
  [3]would rather do ...宁愿做……
  [4]在the first、 the second、 the last、 the next、 the only等词和形容词最高级后,或在被这些词修饰的名词、代词后,常用动词不定式作后置定语。
  In 1941, Dr Lin became the first Chinese woman ever to be appointed director of the OB-GYN department of the PUMC Hospital, but just a few months later, the department was closed because of the war.[5]Thinking of all the people still in need of help, Dr Lin opened a private clinic .She charged very low fees to treat patients and often reduced costs for poor patients.At times she was even seen riding a donkey to faraway villages to provide medical care.
  [6]The new People’s Republic of China saw Dr Lin Qiaozhi playing a key role. In 1954, she was elected to the first National People’s Congress and, over the next several decades , she held many important positions.Her heart, however, was elsewhere .She was more interested in tending patients, publishing medical research on care for women and children, and training the next generation of doctors.“The OB-GYN department cares for two lives,” she told new staff in her department.“As doctors, we should be responsible for the patients and treat them as our sisters.”
  Though Lin Qiaozhi never married, she was known as the “mother of ten thousand babies”, having delivered over 50,000 babies in her lifetime.[7]Dr Lin did not retire until the day she died, 22 April 1983.Since she had no children of her own , she left her savings to a kindergarten and a fund for new doctors.And even as she lay dying, her final thoughts were for others.“I’m ready to go,” she said.“Don’t try to rescue me any more.Don’t waste the medicine any more.”
  [5]Thinking of all the people still in need of help ...是动词-ing短语作状语。
  [6]playing a key role是动词-ing短语作宾语补足语。
  [7]not ...until ...直到……才……

万婴之母
  “生命是宝贵的。……对一个人来说,没有什么比他们的生命更加珍贵了。而现在这个人对你说,我把生命交给你,那么你还说什么呢?你冷?你饿?你困?”林巧稚医生这一席话使我们得以窥见这位非凡女性的内心世界,并了解是什么支撑她度过充满艰难抉择的一生。
  林巧稚五岁时母亲病故,这对她影响极大。十八岁时,她没有像大多数的女孩那样走上婚姻这一传统道路,而是选择工作和学习。“女孩子读那么多书干嘛?找个好丈夫才是她们的归宿!”她的兄弟一想到高昂的学费就这么抱怨。她回答:“我宁愿一辈子不嫁人,也要学医!”后来,如她所愿她继续学医。
  1929年,林巧稚从北京协和医学院毕业,并获得了该校毕业生的最高荣誉奖——“文海”奖学金。她随即成为北京协和医院妇产科聘任的第一位女住院医师。不到六个月,她就成了住院主任医师,而升任这一职位通常需要四年时间。工作了几年之后,她被派往欧洲学习,之后于1939年又赴美学习。美国同行对她印象极佳,邀请她留下。但是,林医生谢绝了邀请。她希望服务祖国的妇女和儿童。
  1941年,林医生成为北京协和医院妇产科的首位中国籍女主任,但是仅仅数月之后,妇产科就因为战争而关闭。想到还有那么多人需要帮助,林医生开办了一间私人诊所。她向病人收取的治疗费用极低,而且经常为穷苦病人减免费用。有时人们甚至会看到她骑着毛驴去遥远的村庄给人看病。
  中华人民共和国成立后,林巧稚医生发挥了更大的作用。1954年,她当选第一届全国人大代表;在随后的几十年间,她担任许多重要职位。然而,她的心却在别处。她更感兴趣的是治病救人、发表妇幼护理医学研究成果、培养下一代的医生。“妇产科救治的是母婴两条生命,”她对科室新入职的医务人员说道,“作为医生,我们必须对患者负责,视她们如姐妹。”
  虽然林巧稚终身未婚,但是她被称为“万婴之母”,她一生中亲手接生的婴儿有五万多名。林医生坚守在岗位上,直到1983年4月22日她去世的那一天。由于自己没有孩子,她把积蓄捐给了一家幼儿园和一项新医生基金。即使在她弥留之际,她最后惦念的仍是他人。“我要走了,”她说,“不要再抢救了,不要再浪费药品了。”

  (2024·临汾高一下期末)In Fujian Province during the Northern Song Dynasty (960-1127) there lived a man called Yang Shi.He devoted his whole life to study, and to spreading his ideas and theories.At that time, the brothers Cheng Hao and Cheng Yi, famous scholars in the capital, Luoyang, were teachers of the Way of Confucius and Mencius.
  When Yang Shi heard of them, instead of going to where an official post had been assigned to him, he made his way to Luoyang and became Cheng Hao’s student.When Yang Shi finished his studies and left for home, Cheng Hao said with satisfaction, “My ideas are finally being spread in the south.” Four years later, Cheng Hao died and Yang Shi was extremely sad.
  Later, Yang Shi made his way once more to Luoyang, where he asked Cheng Yi, Cheng Hao’s younger brother, to be his teacher.He wanted to make further progress in his studies.At that time Yang Shi was over forty years old, and a pretty well-known scholar, but he was very modest and respectful of teachers.
  One day, Yang Shi and a fellow student, You Zuo, got into a dispute over a certain matter.Finding that they could not reconcile their differences, they decided to consult their teacher.
  It happened to be the deep winter.When they reached Cheng Yi’s house they found him sitting by a stove meditating (冥想).Yang Shi and his classmate did not dare to disturb their teacher, but stood respectfully outside the door waiting for him to wake up.
  The snow fell relentlessly, thicker and thicker.After a long time, Cheng Yi came out of his reverie.He looked out of the window, to see the two men standing in a blizzard, covered in snow.The teacher hastily arose and ushered them inside.
  Later, when Yang Shi had completed his study with Master Cheng Yi, he returned to the south and spread his teacher’s ideas.The story “Standing in the Snow at Cheng’s Door” became a fine tale transmitted from generation to generation advocating respect for teachers and for study.

  (2024·兰州高一下质检)What’s really behind the global rise in working longer and longer hours?We are all workers, whether we work in an office as managers, in a hot and noisy factory as workers or as housewives at home.
  The important message is: Work is for man and not man for work!Through work, man develops himself, his personality and his sense of self-worth.It is also through work that man produces goods and services contributing and participating in the development and society.
  According to latest International Labor Organization statistics, more than 400 million employed people worldwide work 49 or more hours per week.
  In a recent interview with The New York Times, even Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla, felt moved to describe his 47th birthday spent locked in his factory, pulling an all-nighter.“No friends, nothing,” he said.It might have been just another day in another 120-hour work week.“This has really come at the expense of seeing my kids and seeing friends,” he added.
  Hustling over long hours and weekends has become a staple of start-up culture in Silicon Valley — hence, it has also filtered out to many parts of the world.
  The problem is that this “long hours” culture likely defeats the purpose of getting more things done, or at least puts a very high price on doing them.There is plenty of evidence that working overtime reduces your productivity, and makes you feel and actually be less healthy.It also makes you more likely to develop a whole range of diseases.
  Keep in mind that working for days at a time is not smart, even if you were Elon Musk.The news of his unhealthy work routine has not been well received by investors, and Tesla’s stock fell 8.8% shortly after the NYT interview, amid suspicions of Musk’s poor mental health.

A.To prove CEOs work harder.
B.To show CEOs are very busy.
C.To show working long is common.
D.To prove working long is rewarding.
解析:C 推理判断题。第三段先指出全球有4亿多人每周工作49小时以上,接下来第四段又以Elon Musk为例,说明超时工作很常见。
7.What does the author think of working long hours?(  )
A.It’s valuable.  B.It’s harmful.
C.It’s necessary.  D.It’s understandable.
解析:B 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段可知,作者认为长时间工作不利于完成更多的任务,这样做会付出很高的代价。
8.How did the investors probably feel when they watched Elon Musk’s interview?(  )
A.Very satisfied.  B.Very confused.
C.A little surprised.  D.A little disappointed.
解析:D 推理判断题。根据最后一段可知,纽约时报采访Elon Musk的消息公布后,Tesla公司的股票下降了8.8%。由此推知,投资者可能感觉有点失望。
Ⅱ.阅读七选五
  (2024·济宁高一下月考)Loneliness is commonly used to describe a negative emotional state.9.(  ) It is the pain we have felt following a break-up, perhaps the loss of a loved one, or a move away from home.
  The unpleasant feelings of loneliness are subjective; researchers have found loneliness is not about the amount of time one spends with other people or alone.10.(  ) A lonely person feels that he or she is not understood by others, and may not think they hold meaningful relationships.
  For some people, loneliness may be temporary and easily relieved.For others, loneliness cannot be easily resolved and can persist (持续) when one does not have access to people to connect with.
  11.(  ) This makes it little different from hunger, thirst or physical pain, which signals the need to eat, drink or seek medical attention.
  In modern societies, however, turning off the alarm signals for loneliness has become more difficult than satisfying hunger, thirst or the need to see the doctor.12.(  )
  Loneliness has largely been ignored as a condition of concern in mental health.Researchers have yet to fully understand the extent of how loneliness affects mental health.Most studies of loneliness and mental health have focused only on how loneliness relates to depression.
  13.(  ) Loneliness refers specifically to negative feelings about the social world, while depression refers to a more general set of negative feelings.In a study that measured loneliness in older adults over a five-year period, loneliness predicted depression, but the reverse was not true.
A.Some people like to be alone.
B.They find it difficult to deal with loneliness.
C.Loneliness can be seen as a signal to connect with others.
D.Almost all of us have experienced loneliness at some point.
E.It is related more to quality of relationships, rather than quantity.
F.Although loneliness and depression are partly related, they are different.
G.For those who are not surrounded by people who care for them, loneliness can persist.
语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。人人都会有孤独的时候,孤独可能会影响我们的心理健康。
9.D 第一段是对孤独的概括性论述,D项说明孤独在我们生活中的普遍性,符合语境。
10.E 上句指出孤独并不在于我们与他人相处或独处时间的长短,而E项是对此意的进一步阐释。
11.C 本段说明孤独就像饥饿、口渴或疼痛一样,都是身体发出的一种信号。下文的signal一词暗示C项符合语境。
12.G 上文指出在现代社会人们所面临的孤独问题变得更难解决,而G项也说明了解决孤独的困难。
13.F 下文介绍了孤独和抑郁之间的区别,因此F项符合语境。

Ⅳ.语法填空
  (2024·郑州高一下期末)As man has a moral nature, to adhere to moral principles should be everyone’ s first 29.   (consider).Moral principles are more important than all other things, including position, wealth, even life.Confucius said,“Wealth and high position 30.   (desire) by all men, but I would not have them if they were not won in the right way.Poverty and low position are hated by all men, 31.   I would not leave them if they could not be rid of in the right way.”
  Confucius gave very clear explanations to the meaning of humanity: It means to love other men, to help others to stand up, and not to impose (强加) on others 32.   they do not desire themselves.
  Confucius himself loved other men.At that time when social classes 33.   (be) distinct, he accepted as students people 34.   all levels of society and taught all of them.In 35.   (teach) his students, Confucius was in fact helping them to stand up (succeed) and understand things (the truth).
  In connection with humanity, Confucius mentioned many other 36.   (virtue), such as rightness, propriety, wisdom, trustworthiness, loyalty, forbearance, filial piety and brotherly love.He called a man 37.   had virtues a gentleman and a man who was not virtuous a mean man.A virtuous man is always open and sincere, ready to help other men, free from worries and fears, and at peace with 38.   (he) and the world.
语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章简要介绍了我国伟大圣人孔子眼里的道德观。
29.consideration 本空前面的everyone’s first暗示这里应用名词。
30.are desired 本句主语为Wealth and high position,表示复数概念,且陈述一个客观事实,应用一般现在时。故填are desired。
31.but 此处孔子的原句为:“富与贵,是人之所欲也;不以其道得之,不处也。贫与贱,是人之所恶也;不以其道得之,不去也。”由于前后两个分句表达转折关系,因此用连词but。
32.what 本空前面有动词impose,因此这里应用连接代词what引导一个宾语从句。这里表示“己所不欲,勿施于人”。
33.were 本句主语为social classes,表示复数概念,另外在陈述过去的情况,故填were。
34.from 这里表示孔子接受来自社会各阶层的学生。from all levels of society来自社会各个阶层。
35.teaching 本空前面有介词In,因此这里应用动词-ing形式作其宾语。
36.virtues 本空后面列举了各种优点和美德,因此用名词的复数形式。
37.who/that 本空前面的man是先行词,因此这里应用关系代词who/that引导定语从句。
38.himself 本句主语为A virtuous man,这里表示一个君子经常会与自己和平相处,也就是获得内心的平静与安宁。

  W:Aaron, a 12-year-old boy, loved playing on the open land near his home.The land was wet and forested, and made a home for animals and many different plants.It made the perfect place for him to get to know and study nature.All of a sudden, it was announced that the empty land would be improved by building a very large complex of apartments on it.The plants would be removed, and the animals would escape and most probably die.When Aaron heard the news, he was not happy.He was worried that polluted water would run from the apartments into the ponds.From the ponds, water would run into the water supply that served the people of that area.
  Aaron wrote down clearly all the research he had done about the area, and how the apartment block would affect the local environment.He sent letters to members of government and television reporters.Finally, Aaron prevented the apartments from being built, and thus helped save his environment.The land remained a safe place for animals and plants.
  Although Aaron was only 12, he had the courage and wisdom of a person much older.Aaron’s teachers described him as gentle, shy and motivated.

Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
(2024·沧州十校高一下月考)The ancient Chinese thinker Confucius regarded benevolence (仁) as the underpinning of morality and as the basis of all the virtues.There is a story in The History of the Three Kingdoms which can help us understand the concept of benevolence.
  The story goes that Cao Cao led a large army south to attack Jingzhou.At that time the military commander of Jingzhou, Liu Biao, had recently died of illness, and his second son, Liu Cong, had succeeded to his position.At the urging of his followers who wished to surrender the city, Liu Cong was preparing to capitulate (投降) to Cao Cao.Liu Bei had reached the city of Xiangyang, where the master strategist Zhuge Liang advised him to attack his ally Liu Cong.Zhuge Liang said that Liu Cong had already surrendered, and was about to deliver Jingzhou to Cao Cao.So it would be better if Jingzhou fell into their hands than into Cao Cao’s.“This is the very moment,” he said, “to attack Liu Cong.” But when Liu Bei remembered how Liu Cong’s father had once protected him, he could not attack Liu Cong.He told Zhuge Liang,“No, I have not the heart to do it.”
  This is an example of benevolence.
  This story gives us a glimpse of how Liu Bei used benevolence as his method of government.Liu Bei can be said to be a gentleman with the virtue of benevolence.In this, he stands in sharp contrast to Cao Cao.Liu Bei’s image of benevolence and righteousness won more of the people’s hearts for him.He gained the support of all the people and officials, which made him an outstanding figure in Chinese history.Benevolence is the first of the fine traditional virtues of the Chinese race.This spirit clearly demonstrates the kindheartedness and friendliness of the Chinese people.Everybody supports people of benevolence and love for others.

  (2024·南京高一下质检)Dwayne Johnson said this week he returned to a 7-Eleven in Hawaii to “right the wrong” of stealing candy when he was a teenager.
  In an Instagram post, the star explained that his family was “broke as hell” when he was living on the island and, for nearly a year when he was 14, he would steal a Snickers (士力架) bar from the store on the way to the gym “every day” as his pre-workout snack because he couldn’t afford to buy one.
  He recalled that “the same clerk was there every day and always just turned her head and never searched me”, but admitted that his actions had been weighing on his conscience (良心) for three decades.
  Johnson documented the recent visit to the store, in which he emptied the shelves of every Snickers bar, bought them and then left the candy bars for any customers to take for free.
  “If somebody looks like they’re stealing Snickers, give them these so they don’t steal it,” Johnson told the store clerk.
  He wrote that he realised the deed might seem “silly”, but every time he would come back home to Hawaii and drive by 7-Eleven, he always knew he “needed to go in and clean out every Snickers bar they had — the right way”.
  Johnson racked up a bill of 298 and also tipped the clerk who had to count the dozens of bars he bought and another cashier who was working at the time.The former wrestling star even posed for selfies with fans while trying to film the visit.
  Yes, we can’t change the past and some of the dumb stuff we may have done, but every once in a while we can do something to make up for that fault — and maybe put a big smile on some stranger’s faces.

  (2024·重庆高一下月考)Do you want to speak fluent English? We would simply advice you to think of the word CEK which stands for Change Attitude, Expose Yourself and Keep Talking.
  Change Attitude: From our experience, this is the most common problem for anyone who wants to learn English.The point is that you should realise that your goal is to communicate with people in English.
  9.(  ) Well, if you want to be, please skip this article immediately.So do not worry about 100% correct grammar.
  It is acceptable for the beginner to say “he don’t know” instead of “he doesn’t know” as long as the listener understands what you are trying to communicate.10.(  )
  Expose Yourself: This step means to expose yourself to English environment.Of course, it is better if you could come to US or UK to study or learn English.11.(  )
  This is twenty-first century and English is already everywhere.Movies, music, newspapers, articles and hundreds of tourists who walk past you every day can be great learning sources.12.(  )
  Keep Talking: Whenever you have a chance to talk or to test your skills, just do it.As the saying goes,“Practice makes perfect.” 13.(  )
  Do not worry about making mistakes.Everyone makes mistakes, Tiger Woods, David Beckham, Madonna, etc.Who are you? Come on.Let’s go out and create your own world of English.
A.Speaking is the most difficult part.
B.But I would say that you don’t have to.
C.Nothing is more important than hard work.
D.You can even assume situations and talk to yourself.
E.Just make the best of every opportunity to learn English.
F.You do not want to be an English professor or a professional translator.
G.At least it is less annoying for them to wait for you 1 minute to produce each perfect sentence.
语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要就如何练习英语口语提出了三条建议。
9.F 上文强调学英语的目的是交际,下文的if you want to be暗示F项符合语境。
10.G 上文说用英文交际时犯一些语法错误没关系,这里G项是对上文意思的延续和补充,符合语境。
11.B 上文说去英美国家学英语当然很好,下文又说21世纪处处都能学英语,故B项符合语境。
12.E 上文说处处都有学英语的资源,我们自然要好好利用这些机会,故E项符合语境。
13.D 本部分强调坚持说英语的重要性,有机会要说,没有机会要创造机会——想象语言环境并自言自语,故D项符合语境。

  James Carston is a shirt-making company.Set up in the 1920s by James Carston, a Manchester tailor, the company has remained in the family and is now run by James’s grandson, Paul Carston.Employing fewer than 50 people, the company has a reputation for producing high-quality men’s shirts, which it sells by mail order, and has a loyal customer base.As Paul Carston says,“Our customers appreciate the attention to details and the high-quality fabric (织物) we use.” And it’s the fabric they now use that makes the company almost unique in the world of men’s shirt manufacturers.
  When Paul Carston took over running the company in 1999, he felt that the company fitted in well with his values.The shirts were made from 100 percent cotton, and as Paul says,“It’s a completely natural fibre, so you would think it was environmentally sound.”Then Paul read a magazine article about Fair Trade and cotton producers.He was shocked to read that the cotton industry is a major source of pollution, and that the synthetic fertilisers (合成化肥) used to produce cotton are finding their way into the food chain.
  Paul takes up the story.“Organic cotton is considerably more expensive than conventionally produced cotton, so I did the sums.I discovered that if we were prepared to take a cut in profits, we would only need to add a couple of pounds to the price of each shirt to cover the extra costs.The big risk, of course, was whether our customers would pay extra for organic cotton.”
  Paul decided to take the plunge and switch entirely to organic cotton.He wrote to all his customers explaining the reasons for the change.The response was encouraging.Although they lost some of their regular customers, they gained a whole customer base looking for formal shirts made from organic cotton, and the company is going from strength to strength.

  In 1970, psychologist Walter Mischel famously placed a cookie in front of each of a group of children and gave them a choice: they could eat the cookie immediately, or they could wait until he returned and then be rewarded with a second.If they didn’t wait, however, they’d be allowed to eat only the first one.Not surprisingly, once he left the room, many children ate their cookies almost immediately.A few, though, resisted eating the first cookie long enough to receive the second.Mischel termed these children high-delay children.
  Interestingly, the children who were best able to delay gratification (满足) later did better in school and had fewer behavioural problems than the children who could only resist eating the cookie for a few minutes — and, further, ended up on average with SAT scores that were 210 points higher.As adults, the high-delay children completed college at higher rates than the other children and then went on to earn higher incomes.In contrast, the children who had the most trouble delaying gratification had higher rates of incarceration (监禁) as adults and were more likely to struggle with drug and alcohol addiction.
  All suggests that the ability to delay gratification — that is, desire control — may be one of the most important skills to learn to have a satisfying and successful life.The question is: how do we learn it?
  The answer may lie in the strategies Mischel’s high-delay children used.Rather than resist the urge to eat the cookie, these children distracted (转移) themselves from the urge itself.They played with toys in the room, sang songs to themselves, and looked everywhere but at the cookie.In short, they did everything they could to put the cookie out of their minds.
语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。心理学家Walter Mischel通过一项实验,提出了著名的延迟满足理论。这一理论对孩子的个人成长有很大的借鉴意义。
28. What should the children do to get a second cookie?(  )
A.They should leave later.
B.They should wait longer.
C.They should arrive earlier.
D.They should study harder.
解析:B 细节理解题。根据第一段可知,若想得到第二块饼干,这些孩子需要做的是等待外出的Walter Mischel回来。
29.What’s the second paragraph mainly about?(  )
A.How to be high-delay children.
B.How high-delay children succeed.
C.The problems with low-delay children.
D.The advantages of high-delay children.
解析:D 段落大意题。根据第二段可知,那些擅长延迟满足的孩子长大后学习成绩更好,有较少的行为问题,同时也挣钱更多;同时也附带说明那些不擅长延迟满足的孩子长大后出问题的概率更高。
30.Why did Walter Mischel give each of the children a cookie?(  )
A.To educate them.  B.To do a research.
C.To entertain them.  D.To conduct a survey.
解析:B 推理判断题。根据第一、二段可知,Walter Mischel在实验中先给每个孩子一块饼干,后来又对这些孩子进行了跟踪研究,观察他们长大后的表现。由此可推知,Walter Mischel给每个孩子一块饼干是为了做研究。
31.What should we do to delay gratification according to the author?(  )
A.Set another new goal.
B.Try to control the desire.
C.Give up what you want completely.
D.Forget what attracts you temporarily.
解析:D 细节理解题。根据最后一段可知,作者指出,掌握延迟满足能力的关键在于向Walter Mischel实验中那些擅长延迟满足的孩子学习——不是抵制欲望,而是转移注意力。
D
  In a study published in Nature Communications, researchers from the University of Zurich told 50 people they’d be receiving about $100.Half of the people were asked to spend that money on themselves, and half were asked to spend it on someone they knew.Before giving out any money, the researchers brought everyone into the lab and asked them to think about a friend they’d like to give a gift to and how much they would spend.They then performed functional MRI scans to measure activities in three parts of the brain related to social behaviour, generosity, happiness and decision-making.
  Their choices — and their brain activities — seemed to depend on how they had promised to spend the money earlier.Those who had promised to spend money on other people tended to make more generous decisions throughout the experiment.They also had more interaction between the parts of the brain related to altruism (无私) and happiness, and they reported higher levels of happiness after the experiment was over.
  Another piece of good news was that planning to give away just a little bit of money had the same effects on happiness as giving away a lot.“At least in our study, the amount spent did not matter,” says lead author Philippe Tobler.“Even little things have a beneficial effect — like bringing coffee to one’s workmates.”
  “It’s not yet clear how long these warm feelings last after being generous.But studies have shown that older people who are generous tend to have better health,” says Tobler, and other research has suggested that spending money on others can be effective at lowering blood pressure.“Moreover, there is a positive connection between helping others and life expectancy (预期寿命),” he adds.
  Next time you think that the best way to make yourself feel better is to buy yourself a treat, consider that the opposite is likely true.“It is worth giving it a try, even if you think it would not work,” Tobler says.“Repeated practice is probably needed so that giving becomes second nature.”
语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。研究发现,慷慨使人更快乐、更健康。
32.What did the researchers find out about those promising to spend money on other people?(  )
A.They were much happier.
B.They had less brain activities.
C.They were slower at making decisions.
D.They experienced higher levels of stress.
解析:A 细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句可知,那些承诺将钱花给他人的人感觉更快乐,幸福感更强。
33.What does Tobler want to illustrate by mentioning bringing coffee to workmates?(  )
A.It isn’t hard to behave generously.
B.Being generous will pay off in the end.
C.The amount of generosity did not matter.
D.Small acts of generosity can be seen everywhere.
解析:C 推理判断题。根据第三段可知,Tobler认为慷慨的程度并不会影响快乐,他通过给同事带咖啡的例子说明即使微小的慷慨之举也能带来快乐。
34.What does Paragraph 4 mainly tell us?(  )
A.Ways to show generosity.
B.Health benefits of being generous.
C.Reasons for performing acts of generosity.
D.Influences generous people have on others.
解析:B 段落大意题。根据第四段可知,本段主要讲述了慷慨有益于健康。
35.What does Tobler suggest people do in the last paragraph?(  )
A.Practice giving and make it a habit.
B.Don’t expect anything in return when giving.
C.Don’t believe happiness depends on a good treat.
D.Perform something good even if it may have a bad result.
解析:A 细节理解题。根据最后一段中Tobler说的话可知,Tobler认为人们在生活中应该尝试给予,并让它成为一种习惯。

  During the following days, I got the same call now and then.It disturbed me, so I either rejected her or hung up right away rudely.I couldn’t help complaining about this, “What an impolite girl! How can she call me up over and over again?” How I wished the little girl would stop causing any trouble to me some day! Suddenly, the phone rang up again.It was from the same girl.It seemed that she would not give up until she got an answer.
  She constantly called me up.Even if I did not give her an answer, she still dialed my number from time to time.Eventually I unwillingly answered the phone.I heard the weak voice of that little girl, “Dad, please come back now.I miss you so much! Mom told me this was not a wrong number.It is your cell phone number, right? Dad, I am in so much pain! Mom said you were too busy to take care of me.She is tired out from looking after me.Dad, I know you are busy.If you cannot come home, please kiss me again on the phone, OK?” The innocent request was difficult to reject.I made a loud kiss into the phone and heard a weak voice saying, “Thank you ...Dad, I am so ...happy, so ...happy.”

参考范文:
  Shortly after this, I became interested in who had been on the other end of my phone. When I called the number back, a woman answered, “Sorry, sir.I am really sorry to bother you.I did want to call to apologize.” From the woman, I learnt that the girl had bone cancer when she was born, and unfortunately her father died in an accident several weeks ago.The little girl suffered from unbearable treatment every day.Feeling painful, she would cry for her dad who had always encouraged her, so her mother gave her a random number.
  I couldn’t wait to ask the woman how her daughter was.The woman thought for a while, saying sadly,“She has gone.You must have kissed her on the phone, and she went with a smile as she tightly held the cell phone with which she could hear her father’s voice ...” On hearing this, I couldn’t keep back my sad feeling, tears streaming down my cheeks.I didn’t know what to say, so I slowly hang up my phone, praying for her happiness and health in heaven.

Step 1 品教材课文
THE STONE IN THE ROAD
  Once upon a time there was a king who often thought, “Nothing good can come to a nation whose people only complain and expect others to solve their problems.” One day, he had an idea.
  Early one morning, the king disguised himself and went to a local village.He placed a large stone in the middle of the main street and hid gold coins under the stone.Then he hid behind a huge maple tree and watched.
  The first person down the street was a milkman with his cart.He crashed into the stone, spilling the milk everywhere.“What fool put this stone here?” he shouted.He picked himself up and angrily went away.
  After a while, a group of women came along, each balancing a pot of water on her head.One woman tripped over the stone and her water pot went crashing to the ground.She picked herself up and limped away in tears.Neither she nor her friends thought about moving the stone out of the road.
  The king watched all day as many people complained about the stone, but he found nobody making an attempt to move it.The king was in despair.“Is there no one in this village who feels any responsibility to keep their neighbours from harm?”
  Just then, the king saw a young girl coming along.She was the daughter of a local farmer.She had been working all day and was very tired.But when she saw the stone, she said to herself, “This stone is a danger to anyone who comes down the street after dark.I’ll move it out of the way.”
  The girl pushed the stone with all her might.After a great deal of effort, she finally succeeded in moving it to the side of the street.Imagine her surprise when she saw the gold coins where the stone had been!
  Just then, the king stepped out from behind the tree.“Oh sir,” the girl said, “does this gold belong to you? If not, we surely must find the owner, for he will certainly miss it.”
The king said, “My dear, the gold is mine.I put it in the road and moved the stone over it.Now the gold is yours, because you are the only person who has learnt the lesson I wanted to teach my people.”
Step 2 析写作手法
学语言:
1.连接词:
(1)第一段第一句中的Once upon a time 是常用的故事开头语,然后作者用One day开始叙述故事。
(2)第二至五段主要是按照时间顺序展开的,并运用了Early one morning, Then, After a while, all day等时间状语,使句子之间层次清晰、衔接紧密、语意连贯。
2.高级表达:
(1)作者运用高频词汇complain, disguised, placed, hid 等词描写了国王的实际行动。
(2)作者运用She picked herself up and limped away in tears.描绘了一个女人被绊倒后的心理活动。
3.高级句式:
(1)第一段中使用了高级句式:whose people only complain and expect ...为whose引导的定语从句。
(2)第三段第二句中的spilling the milk everywhere和第四段第一、二句中的each balancing a pot of water on her head和crashing to the ground等多处使用了动词-ing短语,使语言精辟简练,表达更加形象生动,故事情节波澜起伏。
(3)倒数第二段中的If not是条件状语从句的省略形式,既避免了重复又使语言更加精练,突显表达效果。
学结构:
【参考译文】
挡道的石头
  从前有个国王,他经常思考:“如果一个国家的人民只会抱怨,而且总是期待别人来解决他们的问题,那么这个国家就不会有什么好事。”有一天,他想到一个办法。
  一天清晨,国王乔装打扮一番后,来到了当地的一座村庄。他把一块大石头放在了主路的中间,并且在石头下面藏了几枚金币。然后,他就躲在一棵大枫树后观察。
  路上走来的第一个人是推着车子的送奶工。他撞在石头上,牛奶四处飞溅。“哪个傻瓜把石头放在这里了?”他大喊道。他从地上爬起来,气呼呼地走了。
  过了一会儿,一群女人走了过来,每人头上都顶着一罐水。其中一个女人被石头绊倒,水罐也摔到地上。她从地上爬起来,噙着泪一瘸一拐地走了。无论是她自己,还是她的同伴,都没有想到把石头从路中间挪开。
  国王观察了一整天,看到很多人都埋怨这块石头,却没人试着把它挪开。国王陷入了绝望。“难道整个村子都没有一个人觉得有责任让邻居免遭不测吗?”
  就在那时,国王看到一位小姑娘迎面走来。小姑娘是当地一位农民的女儿。忙活了一天,她疲惫不堪。然而,当她看到那块石头,她自言自语道:“对于天黑以后走在这条路上的人来说,这块石头很危险,我得把它从这条路上挪开。”
  女孩使出了全身力气去推石头。费了好大一番工夫,她终于成功地把石头推到了路边。想象一下,当她看到原先石头所在之处的金币时有多么惊讶!
  此时,国王从树后走了出来。“哦,先生,”女孩说道,“这些金币是您的吗?如果不是的话,我们得找到失主,他一定十分着急。”
  国王答道:“亲爱的,金币是我的,是我把它放在了路上,然后把石头压在上面。现在,金币归你了,因为我想教给我的子民的道理,只有你一人学会了。”

Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
  (2024·临沂高一下期末)In June 2019, Steve Wilson was going on a bike ride.Like many of us often do, he checked his phone beforehand, and saw a moving post about his friend’s daughter Linda.“She was a junior in high school at the time, she just received a life-saving kidney (肾) from a woman in town,” Wilson told CBS News.“And they didn’t even know this woman till they made the request for their daughter.”
  “So, I became emotional.I just thought that is the coolest thing,” said Wilson, who lives in Westchester, N.Y.“I took a long bike ride and I kept thinking, ‘I would love to do something like that one day.’”
  After seeing the post, Wilson selflessly decided to become a living donor himself, donating a kidney, while he was alive, to someone he didn’t know.
  “I knew it would go to someone.It eventually went to someone across the country,” Wilson said.“They took my kidney to the airport and flew it out to the West Coast.” He said he still doesn’t know the person who received his kidney and he probably never will, which he’s fine with.He just wanted it to change somebody’s life, he said.
  Going through an operation may seem frightening, but Wilson says all it takes is two weeks of your life for recovery.And to prove that it isn’t burdensome, Wilson and his fellow living donors finished an even harder mission: Summiting (登上) Mount Kilimanjaro.
  “I do think that having that purpose made it a little bit easier.But there were some people — and I was one of them — that really plowed hard to get through.And the purpose behind it was the reason you just kept going,” Wilson said.
  The team reached the summit on 10 March — symbolically, World Kidney Day.As for whether the climb to encourage living donations was worth it, Wilson said he inspired at least his friends to consider becoming living donors, but he thinks the Kilimanjaro summit could have inspired countless others.
语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文。Steve Wilson选择将肾捐献给一位陌生人,然后通过登上乞力马扎罗山的壮举证明捐肾不会影响到身体健康,并激励更多人去捐肾。

4.What would be the best title for the text?(  )
A.A Sick Girl and a Kind-hearted Woman
B.A Kidney Donor and an Unknown Receiver
C.Donating a Kidney After Climbing a Mountain

  (2024·邯郸十校高一下联考)Victorian education minister James Merlino’s announcement that mobile phones will be banned for all students at state primary and secondary schools is certainly a brave move.
  The policy has come as a direct response to mounting levels of cyberbullying, concerns over distractions and schools struggling with discipline relating to students’ misuse of phones.
  Students will have to switch off their phones and store them in lockers from the start of the school day until the final bell.In case of an emergency, parents or guardians can reach their children by calling the school.
  Whether to allow students to use mobile phones in school is certainly a hot topic in education.The Victorian announcement follows a French government ban on mobiles in school.Debates on the issue are also taking place in Denmark, Sweden and the United Kingdom.
  There is considerable public support for banning mobiles.In our recently conducted survey of more than 2,000 Australian adults, nearly 80% supported a ban on mobile phones in classrooms.Just under one-third supported a complete ban from schools altogether.
  But while banning phones from classrooms, and from schools altogether, might seem sensible, there are a number of reasons to be cautious.It’s clear we need to carefully consider how we want to make use of digital devices being brought into schools.But previous experience, such as in New York, suggests a complete ban might introduce even more problems.Experience from elsewhere suggests enforcing (实施) a mobile ban in schools may not be as easy as it sounds.
  The New South Wales government announced a review into the benefits and risks of mobile phone use in schools in June.At the review’s completion, the government said it would only ban mobile phones from the state’s primary schools, leaving secondary schools free to make their own choice.
  Another example is the ban enforced in New York City from 2006, which was eventually lifted in 2015.The reasons given for this change highlighted several of the concerns the new ban in Victoria will likely face.They include practical difficulties of enforcing a ban in the classroom.
语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。澳大利亚维多利亚州宣布将在中小学实施手机禁令,可是,作者认为在中小学禁止手机不是一件容易的事。
5.What led to the new policy in Victoria?(  )
A.Some scientific studies.
B.Some parents’ requests.
C.Some existing problems.
D.Some leaders’ suggestions.
解析:C 细节理解题。根据第二段内容可知,维多利亚州这一政策的出台,是因为手机在中小学导致了很多问题,比如网络欺凌、干扰学习以及学校的管理困难等。
6.What does the author want to show about students’ using mobile phones in Paragraph 4?(  )
A.Mobile phones do harm to students.
B.Mobile phones benefit students greatly.
C.Many schools are faced with the issue.
D.Many schools have banned mobile phones.
解析:C 推理判断题。本段指出,除了维多利亚州,法国已经发布了禁令,丹麦、瑞典以及英国正在为此辩论不休。
7.What attitude did most Australian adults take towards a complete ban of mobile phones at school?(  )
A.Supportive.  B.Ambiguous.
C.Doubtful.  D.Negative.
解析:D 观点态度题。根据第五段可知,在该项调查中,只有不到三分之一的澳大利亚成年人支持在校园彻底禁止手机。
8.What can we infer from the last two paragraphs?(  )
A.It’s very difficult to ban mobile phones at school.
B.A mobile ban will be carried out in American schools.
C.Mobile phones will be banned in all Australian schools.
D.It’s easier to carry out a mobile ban at secondary schools.
解析:A 细节理解题。根据最后两段可知,澳大利亚新南威尔士州只是在小学禁止了手机,而美国纽约的学校2006年开始实施手机禁令,却在2015年又取消了禁令。由此可知,在中小学禁止手机不是一件容易的事。

The Virtue I Value Most
  There are many virtues we should value to live a meaningful life, such as kindness, wisdom, courage, justice and so on.However, what I value most is honesty.
  As the saying goes,“Honesty is the best policy.” This is absolutely true.As one of the core socialist values, honesty is the fundamental factor on which all human relationships are based.Without honesty, our society will be filled with lies and fake products.As a result, nobody can be trusted and nothing can be achieved.
  My fellow students, let’s always be honest.An honest person will win friends, an honest company will win customers, and an honest country will win the respect from the whole world.
Ⅳ.读后续写
  阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
  The concept of comfort zone refers to a psychological state in which we feel safe and do not experience anxiety or fear.It is a “space” that we know completely and in which we control almost everything.
  Your comfort zone represents things you’re familiar with, your regular haunts, friends you’re at ease with, and activities you love doing.Your comfort zone’s risk free.It’s easy.It doesn’t cause you to stretch.Within these boundaries, we feel safe and secure.
  During my senior year in college, I was short of a few credits, and so I skimmed through the class schedule looking for something to fill the hours.When I came across “Private Voice Instruction”, as in singing lessons, I thought, “Why not step outside my comfort zone and give it a try?”
  I was careful to sign up for private lessons instead of group lessons because I didn’t want to make a fool of myself by singing in front of other students.
  Things went fine until the end of the semester when my singing professor brought the shocking news.“By the way, Sean, have you decided which song you want to sing at the recital?” “What do you mean?” I asked in horror.
  “Well, the class requirements state that you have to sing at least one time in front of the other private voice students.”
  “That would not be a good idea,” I said emphatically.
  “Oh, it’s no big deal.You’ll do fine.”
  Well, to me it was a huge deal.The thought of singing in front of a group made me physically sick.“How am I going to get out of this one?” I thought.But I couldn’t allow myself to do that because I had been speaking to various groups over the past year advising them to never let fears make their decisions.Now ...I was up to bat.
  “Courage, Sean.” I kept rehearsing in my mind.“You’ve got to at least try.”
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;

This can’t be that bad.” Now it was my turn.As I stood in front of the class, which was far away from my comfort zone, I kept repeating to myself,“Courage! Relax! Take it easy! Just perform your best!” It turned out that I did such a great job that all the students applauded my performance warmly.
  I left the classroom as if a heavy load had been lifted.Although that experience nearly killed me, I felt a great sense of personal accomplishment on my way home.I was so proud of myself and I frankly didn’t care what anyone else thought about my performance.What really mattered was that I had survived.Stepping out of your comfort zone will never be easy, but afterward you’ll always be glad you did it.

(2)动词-ing形式作宾语补足语的句子为句 ⑤ 。
(3)动词-ing形式作主语补足语的句子为句 ④ 。
一、动词-ing形式作宾语补足语
动词-ing形式置于某些及物动词和宾语之后,补充说明宾语的动作或状态。在这种情况下,及物动词通常是表示感觉和心理状态的动词或使役动词。
When we returned to the school, we found a stranger standing at the entrance.
当我们回到学校时,我们发现一个陌生人站在大门口。
I felt somebody patting me on the shoulder.
我感觉到有人在拍我的肩膀。
1.在感官动词后作宾语补足语
在see、 hear、 feel、 watch、 notice等感官动词后,用动词-ing形式构成复合宾语,表示一个正在进行的主动动作,强调一个过程或一种状态。
In the crowded café, I heard a friendly voice saying, “You can share my table.”
在这个拥挤的咖啡馆,我听到一个友好的声音说:“你可以和我坐在一桌。”
Suddenly we heard someone knocking gently on the window.
我们忽然听见有人在轻轻地敲窗户。
名师点津
在see、 hear、 feel、 watch、 notice等感官动词后,既可用动词-ing形式构成复合宾语,也可用省略to的动词不定式构成复合宾语,两者之间有一定的区别。用动词-ing形式时,表示动作正在进行;用省略to的动词不定式时,表示动作的完成,即动作的全过程结束了。
Today on my way home, I saw a man running along the street hurriedly.
今天我在回家的路上,看到一个男人正匆忙地从街上跑过。
I saw him enter the room and take something away.
我看到他进入房间,并拿着东西离开了。
All his attention was fixed on the movie, so he didn’t even notice the boss enter the room.
他所有的注意力都集中在电影上,所以他甚至没有注意到老板进了房间。
2.在使役动词后作宾语补足语
使役动词 have、 keep、 get、 leave等接动词-ing形式作宾语补足语,表示“让……一直做某事”。
It’s cold.We should have the fire burning all the time.
天气冷。我们本应该让火一直燃烧着。
I’m sorry to have kept you waiting for so long.
对不起,让你等了这么久。
名师点津
(1)have/get+宾语+done意为“让别人去做某事”。
He will have/get the computer repaired tomorrow.
他明天让人给他修电脑。
(2)have+宾语+do sth意为“让某人去做某事”。
Mother has me go to the shop to buy some fruit.
妈妈让我去商店买一些水果。
(3)leave (使……处于某种状态)、 keep (使……保持某种状态)后一般跟分词作补语,而不跟动词不定式。
The firm went broke and left her looking for a new job.
公司破产了,促使她一直在找新工作。

④He needed to have some paperwork  delivered  (deliver) across the country the next day.

二、动词-ing形式作状语
  动词-ing形式可以作状语,修饰动词,在句中表示时间、原因、结果、让步、方式或伴随状况、条件等。动词-ing形式作时间、原因、条件、让步状语时多位于句首;作结果、伴随状语时常位于句末。
1.表示时间
Having made full preparations, we are ready for the examination.
→After we have made full preparations, we are ready for the examination.
我们已经做好了充分准备,现在可以应考了。
2.表示原因

由于生病,他昨天没去上学。

②动词不定式作结果状语表示出乎意料的结果,其前常加only表示强调。

→If you go straight down the road, you will find the department store.
顺着这条路一直走,你就会发现那家百货商店。
名师点津
动词-ing形式在句中作状语时,其逻辑主语必须是主句的主语;如果动词-ing形式的逻辑主语与主句的主语不一致时,应在动词-ing形式前加上其独立的逻辑主语,这便构成了动词-ing形式的独立主格结构,该结构在句中常作时间状语、伴随状语、原因状语、条件状语等。
The last bus having gone, we had to walk home.
末班车已经开走了, 我们不得不走回家。(having gone的逻辑主语是the last bus, 而不是we)
Weather permitting, the football match will be held on Friday.
天气允许的话,足球赛将在周五举行。(permitting的逻辑主语是weather,而不是the football match)

⑥ Being  (be) responsible, honest and selfless, he is respected by everyone.
三、动词-ing形式作状语的注意事项
1.动词-ing形式的时态
动词-ing形式作状语时,要注意动词-ing形式的时间性,是用动词-ing形式的一般式(doing)还是用完成式(having done)。
(1)当动词-ing形式的动作与谓语动词的动作同时发生时,用一般式。
Walking in the street, I met an old friend of mine.(walking与谓语动词met同时发生)
走在大街上时,我遇到了一位老朋友。
(2)当动词-ing形式的动作先发生,而谓语动词的动作后发生时,用完成式。
Having lived in Beijing for many years, Carter knew the city well.(Having lived是先发生,knew是后发生)
因为在北京住了多年,卡特对这个城市很熟悉。
2.动词-ing形式的否定式:not+doing; not having+done
Not knowing the way, he got lost.
由于不认路,他迷路了。
Not having made full preparations, we put off the sports meeting.
因为没有做好充分的准备,我们把运动会推迟了。
3.独立成分作状语
有些动词-ing形式作状语在句中没有逻辑上的主语而独立存在,其形式的选择不受上下文的影响,表明说话者的态度、观点等,被称为评注性状语。常见的有:
providing如果
supposing假设,如果
honestly speaking说实话
generally speaking一般来说
strictly speaking严格来说
judging from/by根据……来判断
considering/taking ...into cosideration考虑到……
Honestly speaking, if you put your heart and soul into learning, English is not that difficult for you.

  (2024·南京高一下质检)What do you want to keep and what do you want to let go?
  Next week, total strangers will bring a truck to our door and take away everything we own, except the clothes on our backs, the car we will drive 500 miles to our new home, and as much stuff as we can pack in it.
  It’s called moving.Some people do it often.For others, like me, it’s a rare and serious adventure.In all my adult years I’ve moved only three times.
  My first husband and I moved into our first house with a bed, our clothes and a few wedding gifts.That was a lifetime ago.
  Then the kids grew up, we lost their dad to cancer and I began to learn about letting go.
  First, I let go of the illusion of being in control.Life isn’t about being in charge of what happens.It’s about being in charge of what we do with it.
  Next, I let go of putting off until “tomorrow” things I care most about: keeping in touch, saying I love you, and being truly and fully aware and alive.
  I let go of the kind of people who cling to anger or hatred, and tried instead to surround myself with those who shine with kindness and grace.
  Finally, I let go of being alone.And then, when I fell in love, remarried and moved out of state with my new husband, I let go of more stuff than I kept.
  We will all move someday from this world to the next.And we won’t need a truck to do it.We’ll take nothing with us and leave behind a memory of the life we lived, the mistakes we made, and all the love and kindness we tried to show.

B
  (2024·烟台高一下月考)A paradigm is the way you see something; it’s your point of view, frame of reference, or belief.Sometimes our paradigms are way off the mark, and, as a result, they create limitations.For instance, you may be convinced that you don’t have what it takes to get into college.But, remember Ptolemy was just as convinced that the Earth was the center of the universe.
  And think about the teen who believes she can’t get along with her stepdad.If that is her paradigm, is she likely to ever get along with him? Probably not, because that belief will hold her back from really trying.
  Paradigms are like glasses.As a result, what you see is what you get.If you believe you’re dumb, that very belief will make you dumb.Or, if you believe your little sister is dumb, you’ll look for evidence to support your belief and find it, and she’ll remain dumb in your eyes.On the other hand, if you believe you’re smart, that belief will cast a rosy colour on everything you do.
  A teen named Kristi once shared with me how much she loved the beauty of the mountains.One day she went to visit her eye doctor and, to her surprise, discovered that her sight was much worse than she had thought.After putting in her new contacts (隐形眼镜), she was astonished at how well she could see.As she put it,“I realised that the mountains and trees and even the signs on the side of the road have more details than I had ever imagined.It was the strangest thing.I didn’t know how bad my eyes were until I experienced how good they could be.” That’s often the way it is.We don’t know how much we’re missing because we have messed up paradigms.
语篇解读:本文是一篇议论文。文中提到的paradigm指一种思维定式或思维模式,它往往会限制我们的行为和行动的结果。

Ⅱ.阅读七选五
  (2024·郑州高一下期末)If you have got your driving license, congratulations!You have joined the millions of new drivers already behind the wheel.9.(  ) Don’t worry; these feelings are normal.
  Here are a few tips to keep you safe.
  Know your limits.When you were a kid and first learned how to ride a bike, you probably started out with the basics.10.(  ) As a new driver, the key is to make sure you are extra-careful and practicing safe driving habits.You might notice older friends and relatives doing something risky — like speeding up instead of slowing down at a yellow light.But when a new driver does it, it’s very dangerous.
  11.(  ) This includes you and every passenger wearing a seatbelt at all times, coming to a complete stop at all red lights and stop signs, obeying speed limits, knowing when to yield (让路), etc.
  Avoid distractions.When you first start driving, it’s a good idea to avoid taking friends along with you.While you’re a new driver, driving with friends can be distracting and can increase the risk of a crash.12.(  ) Other things that can distract any driver include talking on the phone, eating, putting on make-up, and listening to loud music.And it should go without saying — no texting!
  Know other people’s limits.You aren’t the only person you have to be responsible for on the road — there are aggressive and careless drivers of all ages and driving experiences.Their presence on the road means it’s not enough to make sure that you follow all the rules of the road.13.(  )
A.Obey all traffic rules.
B.Be as careful as possible.
C.Driving a car can be similar indeed.
D.Always keep in mind that safety comes first.
E.You also have to watch out for people who don’t.
F.You’re probably feeling excited, nervous, or possibly scared.
G.With more experience, driving with friends can become less stressful.
语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。安全驾驶的重要性不言而喻,本文是写给那些刚拿到驾照者的一些驾驶建议。
9.F 下文说“这些感觉很正常”,这里暗示我们此处在叙述一些感受,故F项符合语境。
10.C 上文在叙述小孩学自行车的情况,下文在谈论驾车的情况,C项承上启下,符合语境。
11.A 本段所提到的系安全带、不超速等都是一些交通规则,A项符合语境。
12.G 上文主要告诉我们驾车时带上朋友的危险性,G项符合语境,说明随着驾驶经验的增加这种情况会逐渐好转。
13.E 上文指出仅仅你自己遵守交通规则是不够的。那么,此处肯定要告诉我们还应该怎么办,故E项符合语境。

  This quiz was given to 200 32.   (applicant) for a single job.The one who 33.   (hire) responded, “I would give the car keys to my friend and let 34.   (he) take the elderly woman to the hospital.Then I would stay behind and wait for the bus with the woman of my dreams.”

语篇解读:本文是一篇议论文。面对一道奇怪的面试问题,为何一位求职者能够从200人中脱颖而出呢?
29.waiting see sb doing sth 是一个固定句式,表示“看见某人正在做某事”。
30.to die be about to do sth 表示“将要做某事”,这里是说这位老太太即将死亡。
31.because 本空后面的从句表示你应该选择老朋友的原因,应用连词because。
32.applicants 由于有200名求职者,因此应用applicant的复数形式。
33.was hired 由于这名求职者是“被录用”,因此用一般过去时的被动语态。
34.him let为动词,后面应用人称代词的宾格来作其宾语。
35.exactly 由于本空前面是系动词,因此这里应用副词。
36.from from a ...angle是固定搭配,表示“从……的角度”。
37.starts 本句为动词-ing短语作主语,且描述一种客观现实,因此用一般现在时。
38.which/that 此处box为先行词,后面是一个定语从句,应用关系代词which/that。
