UNIT 11　CONFLICT AND COMPROMISE(二)
Ⅰ.阅读理解
A(2025山东青岛二中模拟)
Contrary to most boys,I’ve never had a problem saying “no”.“No” to let my desk neighbor borrow a pencil.“No” to just take “one sip”(尝一口) of a drink I didn’t want.Saying “no” to everything just felt natural,and the two letters slid off my tongue so well that eventually people stopped asking me to do things.My thought process was simple:If something wasn’t within my comfort zone,I should avoid it.
One of my favorite verses from the Bible has always been,“She is clothed with strength and dignity,and she laughs without fear of the future”,but I never actually laughed or did anything without fearing what would happen next.So,with a sudden urge,I decided to start saying “yes” as long as it wasn’t illegal and didn’t violate my own moral code.
This one word brought all kinds of new experiences where I found myself in a bar playing late one night with new friends and sitting in the front row at SoulCycle—a nice change from my back row,corner spot.Of course this change has had both good and bad outcomes,ranging from fun memories to lots of work and making semi-costly mistakes,leading to the unavoidable blames from my boss.
Remember when we were six and the whole world was ours We colored on the walls and slid into the cookie jar,fearless and unconcerned.We said “yes” to whatever we felt like doing,and then we became adults.Our dreams and sense of adventure faded away with our imaginary friends.
Reality is that we all have dreams,but most of us make excuses for not pursuing them.It’s more like a matter of inertia(惰性),of just ignoring the dreams,of maintaining the present situation.“No” keeps everything predictable.But you can break out of your comfort zone and get more out of life through the simple power of “yes”.

A.He had no ability to offer help.

2.What did the author learn from the verse in the Bible
A.Tolerating uncertainty was a must.
B.It was necessary to stay cautious.
C.What was not banned was allowed.
D.Moral principles could be adjusted.
3.What did saying “yes” bring to the author
A.Laughter from his boss.
B.Vital mistakes at work.
C.Friends and higher status.
D.More tasks and less focus.
4.Which of the following best summarizes the passage
A.Children are braver than adults.
B.Life gives back to those who dare to try.
C.Golden days in childhood are precious.
D.Dreams fuel one’s courage to take risks.
B(2025河北衡水中学模拟)
Have you ever had the feeling that you can’t think when there is too much noise around Did you ever think a fish could experience that feeling too A recent paper published in Science titled “Soundscape(声景) of the Anthropocene Oceans”,combined over 10,000 scientific papers,confirming that undersea life knows that exact same feeling,more often than not.Anthropogenic(人为的) ocean noise,also known as underwater noise pollution,has created a dramatic impact on marine life due to “human-caused” activity within and neighboring our oceans.
Disney Pixar’s animated film Finding Nemo educated us about the ocean,and specifically within the ordinary world of a clown fish.A fact many may not know is that clown fish spend the first part of their lives as larvae,drifting with the current of the ocean until they become strong enough to swim against it.Once they are powerful and strong,they head home in sheltered coral reefs.There is only one drawback—the fish can’t physically see the reef,but they can hear it.The only problem is,if they can’t hear it,will they ever make it home
Our anthropogenic ocean noise,such as cargo ships,ship and boat propellers,surfing,deep sea mining,etc.is causing destruction of marine life.According to Time,sound is the sensory signal that travels the farthest through the ocean.Anthropogenic noise drowns out the natural soundscapes,putting marine life under immense stress.Altogether,this stress then affects their general health,disrupts their behavior,physiology,reproduction and,in extreme cases,causes death.Marine life can adapt to noise pollution,however,only if they can escape it.This only renders further complications of straying(使偏离) species from their traditional breeding regions or separating them from their families.
Now,what if we told you there is already a solution Multiple remedies,ideas and designs are currently in the works or already exist to eliminate and reverse the damage of anthropogenic ocean noise.As Time explains,from wind-powered ships to noise-reducing propellers,floating wind turbines and “bubble curtains” that muffle construction noise,the solutions are already available and in some cases,cost-effective.The authors of the paper hope it will catch the attention of policymakers,who historically speaking,have ignored the matter still to this day.
Of all the challenges ocean creatures are battling,luckily sound pollution is the easiest compromise humans can make.Once the noise has decreased,marine life will be able to better manage everything else it is up against.
5.How does anthropogenic ocean noise affect clown fish
A.It improves their reproduction rates.
B.It promotes their better development.
C.It hinders them from finding their home.
D.It causes them to give up their migration in the ocean.
6.What does the underlined word “renders” probably mean in paragraph 3
A.Leads to. B.Decides on.
C.Holds back. D.Results from.
7.Which of the following solutions is already available according to paragraph 4
A.The application of relevant laws.
B.The use of noise control technology.
C.The restriction of human activities.
D.The attention of local policymakers.
8.What is the text mainly about
A.The beauty of marine ecosystems.
B.The urgent need for ocean conservation.
C.The impact of climate change on ocean noise.
D.The harmful effects of human-generated ocean noise.

参考答案
UNIT 11　CONFLICT AND COMPROMISE(二)
Ⅰ.【语篇解读】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章主要讲述了作者以前经常说“不”,因为他不想走出自己的舒适圈。后来作者尝试说“是”,逐渐收获了许多新的人生体验。
1.C　细节理解题。根据第一段中“Saying ‘no’ to everything just felt natural,and the two letters slid off my tongue so well that eventually people stopped asking me to do things.”可知,作者对所有事情说“不”已经成为习惯,所以最终人们不再让他做事是因为他们已经知道了他的回应。
2.A　推理判断题。根据第二段内容可知,作者从《圣经》中的文字里意识到,文字中描述的人无畏于未来,而自己却总是害怕接下来会发生什么,所以决定开始说 “是”,由此可推断作者从诗中学到了容忍不确定性是必要的。
3.D　细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Of course this change has had both good and bad outcomes,ranging from fun memories to lots of work and making semi-costly mistakes,leading to the unavoidable blames from my boss.”可知,说“是”给作者带来了各种新体验,有好有坏,包括很多工作、更多任务,以及因为不能集中精力而犯了一些代价不小的错误,即带来了更多任务和更少的专注度。
4.B　主旨大意题。通读全文尤其最后一段内容可知,文章讲述了作者从习惯说“不”到尝试说“是”,走出了自己的舒适区,获得了新的体验,即生活会回报那些敢于尝试的人。
【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了人为海洋噪声对海洋生物造成的影响,以及目前存在的解决方案和对未来政策制定者的呼吁。
5.C　细节理解题。根据文章第二段中的“There is only one drawback—the fish can’t physically see the reef,but they can hear it.The only problem is,if they can’t hear it,will they ever make it home ”可知,人为的海洋噪声会阻碍小丑鱼找到回家的路。
6.A　词句猜测题。根据第三段中的“Marine life can adapt to noise pollution,however,only if they can escape it.This only renders further complications of straying species from their traditional breeding regions or separating them from their families.”可知,海洋生物会因为噪声污染而偏离传统繁殖区域或与家人分离,这是噪声污染带来的结果。由此可推知,画线单词“renders”的意思是“导致”,与选项A意思接近。
7.B　细节理解题。根据文章第四段中的“As Time explains,from wind-powered ships to noise-reducing propellers,floating wind turbines and ‘bubble curtains’ that muffle construction noise,the solutions are already available and in some cases,cost-effective.”可知,已经有一些噪声控制技术可以用来减少人为的海洋噪声。
8.D　主旨大意题。文章第一段中的“Anthropogenic ocean noise,also known as underwater noise pollution,has created a dramatic impact on marine life due to ‘human-caused’ activity within and neighboring our oceans.”指出了人为的海洋噪声对海洋生物的影响。文章第二段至第三段通过讲述小丑鱼的例子和海洋生物对噪声的适应性,进一步说明了噪声污染对海洋生物的危害。文章最后两段提出了一些已经存在的解决方案。由此可知,文章主要讲述的是人为产生的海洋噪声的有害影响。
Ⅱ.【语篇解读】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章讲述了作者作为大学教师,随着年龄增长与学生产生语言代沟,以“Venmo”为例说明,同时表达了对语言变化速度的感慨。
9.A　上文“One of the ‘problems’”明确指出存在问题,说明这种情况引起了问题。
10.D　下文“but my students remain the same age—18 to 22”中“but”表示转折,说明与学生年龄不变形成对比,作者年龄是在增长,变得更老了。故选D项。
11.B　根据下文“as we were close enough in age to speak the same language”可知,曾经因为年龄相近有共同语言,所以年龄差异在当时不是一个需要关注的问题。
12.C　下文作者描述自己对学生说的“Venmo”一无所知,通过这个具体事例体现出作者强烈地感觉到和学生之间存在语言代沟。
13.A　结合下文“I am not on board”,“on board”通常用于描述上船等情况,所以这里说语言之船已经启航,作者没赶上船,符合语境。
14.D　下文作者详细讲述了在教室听到学生说“Venmo”而自己却不理解的事例,这是通过具体例子来进一步说明自己和学生之间的语言代沟。
15.B　根据下文“One of their comments 　　　”可知,“comments”通常是在交流、聊天过程中产生的,所以可以推断出学生们在聊天。
16.C　从下文作者因为这句评论去询问“Venmo”的意思可知,这句评论引起了作者的注意;catch one’s ear意为“引起某人的注意”。
17.A　根据下文“so I asked”可知,作者因为不知道“Venmo”的意思所以去询问;have no idea意为“不知道”。
18.B　由下文“were happy to explain it to me”可知,学生们乐意给作者解释,说明学生们很友好。
19.C　结合上文学生给作者解释“Venmo”的意思,作者作为回应,通常会点头表示感谢和理解。
20.D　下文“but I am uncomfortable with change”中“but”表示转折,说明前面表达的是不反对改变,与下文“感到不舒服”构成转折关系。
21.A　下文“I’d have no idea what people were talking about.I just wouldn’t understand the language.”体现出如果时间间隔久一点,作者就跟不上语言的变化,说明是语言变化的速度让作者感到吃力。
22.C　根据上文“awaken from”可知,作者假设自己从沉睡中醒来。
23.B　根据上文和下文“to know what they’re talking about”可知,作者去询问“Venmo”的意思等行为,体现出作者有了解学生话语的愿望。
Ⅲ.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了汝瓷和汝瓷传承人李超致力于传承和推广汝瓷技艺的事迹。
24.was prized　考查动词的时态、语态和主谓一致。动词prize是句中谓语动词,与主语“Ru porcelain”之间是被动关系,结合时间状语“during the Song Dynasty(960—1279)”可知,讲述过去的事情,应使用一般过去时的被动语态,又因主语是不可数名词,所以be动词应使用单数形式。故填was prized。
25.flooded　考查动词的时态。动词flood是从句中谓语动词,与主语“Ru porcelain”之间是主动关系,结合时间状语“around 1100”可知,讲述过去的事情,应使用一般过去时。故填flooded。
26.perfecting　考查非谓语动词。动词perfect意为“完善,使完美”;devote...to...是固定搭配,意为“致力于……”,其中to是介词,接动词-ing形式作宾语。故填perfecting。
27.which　考查定语从句。空处引导非限制性定语从句,修饰先行词steps,关系词代替先行词在定语从句中作介词of的宾语,应使用关系代词which引导该从句。故填which。
28.the　考查冠词。根据上文“Creating Ru porcelain involves 72 steps”可知,句中process指上文提到的“制作汝瓷的72道工序”这个过程,表特指,应使用定冠词。故填the。
29.experienced　考查形容词。提示词修饰名词artisans,应使用形容词作定语,故填experienced。
30.actively　考查副词。提示词修饰动词,应用副词作状语,故填actively。
31.targeting　考查非谓语动词。“particularly...younger generations”作伴随状语,target(以……为目标)应用非谓语形式,与其逻辑主语He之间是主动关系,用动词-ing形式表主动。故填targeting。
32.borders　考查名词复数。可数名词border作宾语,结合语境可知,李的雄心壮志是向全世界推广汝瓷,所以“国界”是复数概念。故填borders。
33.with　考查介词。此处使用短语share sth.with...,意为“与……分享……”。故填with。
