Ⅰ.阅读理解
A(2025四川巴中三模)
On her 53rd birthday,Debra Ferrell received the usual well-wishes on Meta,but she also got some unusual messages.One was about a family in Minnesota who had just lost their four-year-old son to cancer.His older brother,autistic(自闭症) and nonverbal,was struggling with grief.They were reaching out to Ferrell,seeking any possible support.“Could you bring him some comfort ” they asked with deep sadness.
Ferrell’s heart ached when she read the message.She knew she had to do something.She sent them a wind chime(风铃) with the message “Listen to the wind and know that I am near.” written on the clapper.It now hangs in the four-year-old’s bedroom,where his brother can go to listen to it whenever he wants.Ferrell says,“I hope it brings him some comfort.Sometimes,a small gesture can mean the world to someone going through a tough time.”
This is not the first time that Ferrell decided to give gifts for her birthday.In fact,for her 47th birthday,she founded Love with Skin On,an organization devoted to doing good deeds near her home in Roanoke,Virginia,and beyond.Its motto is simple:Be Love,Do Stuff.“I believe that small acts of kindness can make a big difference,” Ferrell explains.“It’s amazing to see the joy on people’s faces when you do something unexpected for them.”
To celebrate her 53rd birthday,Ferrell decided to commit 53 random acts of kindness by the end of her birth month.She put out a call on her Meta page,asking for information on people who could use a little help.Over the years,she has reached out and touched well over 100 strangers,some found through Meta callouts,others with help from her grandkids.In another act of giving,she shares her favourite inexpensive and creative gift ideas on Pinterest for others to use.Her grandkids often join her on these missions,making it a family affair.“It’s amazing to see the joy on people’s faces,” she says.“And it’s even more rewarding when my grandkids are involved.They learn the value of kindness and compassion.”
Ferrell funds all these acts of kindness herself.She buys gift cards,makes pay-it-forward purchases at drive-throughs,sends care packages,and even covers the gas to deliver these surprises.Her family often gives her extra birthday cash,jokingly warning her not to spend it on others,but she always does.“I got a couple of Amazon gift cards for my birthday this year and was like YESSS!” she says with a laugh.“It’s my party,and I’ll give if I want to!”

B(2025山东日照模拟)
My friend had built a multimillion-dollar business from nothing,rising out of poverty.He cared for his aging parents,sent two siblings to college,and even helped them get married.Yet,despite these incredible achievements,his response was always the same whenever I praised him:“Not good enough.Not yet.”
I know this mindset well,having grown up in an entrepreneurial family where my performance was constantly measured through comparisons.“Look at so-and-so’s son and how well he’s doing.” my father would say.The thought of meeting these standards blinded me to the 90% of things I was doing right.Instead,I became focused on the never-ending 10% I hadn’t achieved to prove myself,and if not,I would become bitter toward myself and those I was trying to match in performance.I would develop an inflated self-confidence that I would dominate all aspects of business or have no confidence in certain business activities.
When I didn’t feel competitive enough,I lost opportunities and friendships when there was a better approach for collaboration and a win-win.I often didn’t know why I was competing:I just wanted to prove to my father that I was better than the other guy,and he was wrong.Later in my life,I came to realize that life can be competitive,but comparison is not the right approach to growth.It’s the enemy of self-acceptance,breeding feelings of inadequacy.When we compare ourselves,we might create slightly better versions than others,but it comes at the expense of our authenticity.
When you accept yourself,you’ll realize that you only need to meet your natural and basic expectations,not anyone else’s.That’s when you begin to live authentically and give others the space to grow into their best selves within their abilities and circumstances.An oak tree doesn’t strive to become a smaller banana tree or a much larger mountain.It grows into its most natural and beautiful form,providing shade and strength for those who need it.
5.What does the author want to show by telling his friend’s story
A.Family support is the key to success.
B.Poverty motivates greater achievements.
C.Financial success doesn’t mean a happy life.
D.Achievement doesn’t guarantee self-acceptance.
6.What does the underlined word “inflated” in paragraph 2 mean
A.Overstated.
B.Humble.
C.Stable.
D.Unsurprising.
7.What is a consequence of comparison according to the author
A.Motivation decline.
B.Self-worth decrease.
C.Personality disorder.
D.Superiority complex.
8.What does the last paragraph imply
A.Constant comparison fuels one’s ambition.
B.Competition contributes to success.
C.Self-acceptance enables authentic growth.
D.Social acceptance determines one’s value.

参考答案
UNIT 6　THE ADMIRABLE(二)
Ⅰ.【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了费雷尔通过生日善举传递温暖,践行“小善举的力量”的故事。
1.D　细节理解题。根据第一段中的“One was about a family in Minnesota who had just lost their four-year-old son to cancer.His older brother,autistic(自闭症) and nonverbal,was struggling with grief.They were reaching out to Ferrell,seeking any possible support.”可知,她在53岁生日时收到了求助的特殊信息。
2.B　细节理解题。根据第四段中的“In another act of giving,she shares her favourite inexpensive and creative gift ideas on Pinterest for others to use.”可知,费雷尔在Pinterest上分享创新的礼物创意。
3.A　推理判断题。根据第四段中的“To celebrate her 53rd birthday,Ferrell decided to commit 53 random acts of kindness by the end of her birth month.”以及最后一段中的“Ferrell funds all these acts of kindness herself.She buys gift cards,makes pay-it-forward purchases at drive-throughs,sends care packages,and even covers the gas to deliver these surprises.”可知,费雷尔富有同情心且慷慨大方。
4.C　主旨大意题。根据第二段及全文讲述的送风铃、践行53件随机善举等事例可知,文章传递“小善举的力量”这一核心。
【语篇解读】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者通过朋友及自身经历,指出比较不利于成长,强调自我接纳才能实现真实成长。
5.D　推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Yet,despite these incredible achievements,his response was always the same whenever I praised him:‘Not good enough.Not yet.’”可知,作者的朋友取得了巨大成就,但依然不认可自己。所以作者通过讲述朋友的故事想表明成就并不能保证自我接纳。
6.A　词句猜测题。根据第二段中的“I became focused on the never-ending 10% I hadn’t achieved to prove myself,and if not,I would become bitter toward myself and those I was trying to match in performance.I would develop an inflated self-confidence that I would dominate all aspects of business or have no confidence in certain business activities.”以及上下文语境可知,作者因为不断和他人比较,会产生一种过度的自信,认为自己能主导商业的各个方面。所以inflated意思是“夸大的,过度的”,与A选项“Overstated.(夸大的)”意思相近。
7.B　细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Later in my life,I came to realize that life can be competitive,but comparison is not the right approach to growth.It’s the enemy of self-acceptance,breeding feelings of inadequacy.When we compare ourselves,we might create slightly better versions than others,but it comes at the expense of our authenticity.”可知,作者认为比较的一个后果是自我价值感降低。
8.C　推理判断题。根据最后一段“When you accept yourself,you’ll realize that you only need to meet your natural and basic expectations,...It grows into its most natural and beautiful form,providing shade and strength for those who need it.”可知,最后一段暗示自我接纳能让我们真实地成长。
Ⅱ.【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了Ursula在多伦多求职遇挫后,依托自身农场成长背景创办向日葵农场发展农业旅游,最终将其打造成热门目的地,让游客远离城市、重拾对农业的认知与根源联结的经历。
9.D　设空处后文提到“exploring the world”是童年的“梦想”,dreams of doing sth.表示“做某事的梦想”,符合语境。
10.A　设空处前文提到“studied international business”,后文提到“finding a job”,因此,Ursula的目的是在多伦多追求 “职业(career)”,“pursue a career”是固定搭配(追求事业)。
11.C　后文提到“create a job for myself”,说明“找工作比预期更难”。
12.C　因为“没人雇用(hire)我”,所以才“给自己创造工作”,hire表示“雇用”,符合语境。
13.B　前文提到她在农场长大,所以“农业旅游的想法(idea)”很自然地浮现,idea表示“想法、主意”。
14.B　take root表示“扎根;开始实施”,这里指农业旅游的想法开始落地、推进,符合语境。
15.A　propose the plan表示“提出计划”,后文提到“asked if they could rent me...”,对应“提出计划”的动作。
16.B　后文提到“unwilling to take a risk”,说明家人一开始“拒绝(refused)”了她的请求。
17.D　manage to do sth.表示“设法做成某事”,这里指她最终成功获得了许可(get the green light)。
18.B　admittedly表示“诚然;说实话”,后文提到“一开始没什么信心”,是一开始的真实情况,符合语境。
19.D　Sunflower Farm是旅游“目的地(destinations)”,sought-after destinations表示“热门目的地”。
20.A　let alone表示“更不用说”,前文说“很多游客从没去过农场”,这里表示“更不用说向日葵农场”,符合逻辑。
21.B　农场的环境让游客“暂时离开(leave)城市”,呼吸新鲜空气,符合语境。
22.C　gain appreciation for表示“获得对……的欣赏/认知”,游客在农场会对农业产生新的认知。
23.D　reconnect with表示“重新连接;重拾”,这里指游客重拾自己的农业根源,符合语境。
Ⅲ.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。中国春节入选联合国教科文组织非物质文化遗产名录,彰显其全球影响力,助力文化交流与全球和谐。
24.was included　考查时态和语态。句意:12月4日,中国春节被列入联合国教科文组织人类非物质文化遗产代表作名录。这里考查谓语动词,Spring Festival与include之间是被动关系,且时间状语是On December 4,为过去的时间,应用一般过去时的被动语态。故填was included。
25.recognition　考查词性转换。句意:这一认可凸显了春节在全球文化中的重要意义以及它在促进文化多样性和理解方面的作用。空处需要用名词形式,this后接名词单数形式。故填recognition。
26.as　考查固定搭配。句意:春节,也被称为中国新年,是家庭团聚、有着丰富传统和充满活力的庆祝活动的时刻。be known as“被称为”。故填as。
27.but　考查固定搭配。句意:长期以来,不仅在中国,而且在许多亚洲国家都有庆祝春节的习俗。not only...but(also)...“不但……而且……”。故填but。
28.becoming　考查非谓语动词。句意:近年来,它的影响力在全球范围内扩大,成为中国向世界开放的一个象征。这里考查非谓语,表示主句自然而然产生的结果,用现在分词作结果状语。故填becoming。
29.to enhance　考查非谓语动词。句意:中国文化组织积极在国际上推广春节,将其作为提升中国全球形象和文化影响力的工具。修饰名词tool,用不定式作后置定语。故填to enhance。
30.when　考查定语从句。句意:这是一个数百万人出行与家人团聚、共享世代相传的美食和传统的时刻。这里考查定语从句,a time是先行词,在后面的定语从句中作时间状语,所以应用关系副词when引导。故填when。
31.Practices　考查名词复数。句意:像发装满钱的红包、舞狮舞龙等习俗增添了节日的魅力和神秘感。分析句子可知,“like giving red envelopes filled with money and performing lion and dragon dances”是举例说明习俗,practice表示“习俗”,是可数名词,应用复数形式,且用于句首时首字母应大写。故填Practices。
32.uniquely　考查词性转换。句意:这些习俗虽然是中国独有的,但却与家庭、繁荣和希望等普遍主题相呼应。分析句子可知,这里需要用副词修饰形容词Chinese。故填uniquely。
33.shared　考查词性转换。句意:联合国教科文组织将春节列入名录,反映了春节凝聚人心、颂扬共通人性和促进全球和谐的能力。这里需要用形容词修饰名词humanity,share的形容词形式是shared,意为“共同的”,符合句意。故填shared。
