（2025·浙江模拟）A few years ago, a chance encounter with traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) excited my deep interest in this ancient culture. Greatly fascinated, I decided to pursue a systematic study.
I applied to Yunnan University of Chinese Medicine, and I was overjoyed the day I received my admission letter. At the beginning, the ancient Chinese classics and complex processes of herb collection, identification and combination were quite challenging to me. Fortunately, I had the patient guidance of professors and the enthusiastic help of classmates to rely on.
I remember when I first started learning acupuncture (针灸), I was often too hesitant to actually use the needles. To encourage me, my senior classmates generously acted as patients, braving the discomfort to let me practice acupuncture techniques on their bodies. With their support and motivation, my acupuncture skills steadily improved, and my studies quickly got on track.
During my learning journey, the most memorable experience was my internship (实习) at the Yunnan Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine. There, I had the opportunity to participate directly in patient care. I looked forward to every Saturday afternoon when I could shadow my teacher. After each patient consultation, she would give me a detailed explanation: what the patient's pulse (脉搏) indicated, what it represented in terms of their conditions, and the role of each herb in the prescription (处方). This approach helped shape my diagnostic thinking and was incredibly beneficial to me. Even though this meant she could never leave work on time, she never complained. As an ancient Chinese saying goes, "It's easier to get a teacher of classics than a teacher of character."
My every day in China has been filled with challenges and surprises. TCM has taught me not just the skills to heal and save lives but how to view life. I have come to understand that the power of culture lies more in its ability to connect hearts than in its uniqueness. People from different cultural backgrounds can actually form strong connections.
4．Which of the following did the author find difficult when starting studying TCM
A．How to collect ancient Chinese classics.
B．How to combine different herbs properly.
C．How to communicate effectively with professors.
D．How to understand the ancient Chinese philosophy.
5．Why does the author mention the experience of learning acupuncture
A．To show the complexity of acupuncture.
B．To introduce the procedures of studying TCM.
C．To illustrate the supportive learning environment.
D．To stress the dangers of improper acupuncture techniques.
6．What does the author mean by the saying in paragraph 4
A．His TCM teacher is highly professional.
B．His TCM teacher is selfless and devoted.
C．His TCM teacher is strict and demanding.
D．His TCM teacher is easy to get along with.
7．What does the author learn from the experience of studying TCM
A．Life is precious. B．Hard work pays off.
C．Uniqueness unites, not divides. D．Culture is a bridge, not a wall.
【答案】4．B
5．C
6．B
7．D
【知识点】推理判断题；细节理解题；故事阅读类；记叙文
【解析】【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了作者因一次偶然的机会接触到中医，从而对其产生了浓厚兴趣并决定系统学习中医的经历。
【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解和推理判断两个题型的考查，是一篇故事类阅读，首先要仔细阅读短文，掌握大意，然后结合具体的题目，再读短文，从中找出相关信息，就可以确定正确答案。
4．细节理解题。根据第二段中的"At the beginning, the ancient Chinese classics and complex processes of herb collection, identification and combination were quite challenging to me."一开始，中国古代的经典和复杂的草药采集、鉴定和搭配过程对我来说是相当具有挑战性的。可知，作者在刚开始学习中医时，觉得草药的采集、鉴定和搭配的复杂过程很有挑战性。故选B。
5．推理判断题。根据第三段"I remember when I first started learning acupuncture (针灸), I was often too hesitant to actually use the needles. To encourage me, my senior classmates generously acted as patients, braving the discomfort to let me practice acupuncture techniques on their bodies. With their support and motivation, my acupuncture skills steadily improved, and my studies quickly got on track."我记得当我刚开始学习针灸的时候，我常常太犹豫了，不敢实际使用针灸。为了鼓励我，我的高年级同学慷慨地充当病人，冒着不适让我在他们身上练习针灸技术。在他们的支持和激励下，我的针灸技术稳步提高，我的学业也很快步入正轨。可知，作者提到刚开始学习针灸时遇到的困难。为了鼓励他，学长们自愿成为"病人"，忍受不适让他练习针灸。这段经历的目的是展示学长们的支持，以及学习过程中友好和互助的环境。故选C。
6．推理判断题。根据第四段中的"After each patient consultation, she would give me a detailed explanation: what the patient's pulse (脉搏) indicated, what it represented in terms of their conditions, and the role of each herb in the prescription (处方). This approach helped shape my diagnostic thinking and was incredibly beneficial to me. Even though this meant she could never leave work on time, she never complained. "每次问诊结束后，她都会向我详细解释：病人的脉象说明了什么，从病情角度如何解读，以及处方中每一味中药的作用。这种带教方式塑造了我的诊断思维，让我获益匪浅。尽管这意味着她从未准时下过班，但她从不抱怨。可知，老师详细解释病例以及从未抱怨加班等，可推断，作者想表达的是这位中医老师非常无私和奉献，愿意花时间耐心指导学生。故选B。
7．推理判断题。根据最后一段中的"TCM has taught me not just the skills to heal and save lives but how to view life. I have come to understand that the power of culture lies more in its ability to connect hearts than in its uniqueness. People from different cultural backgrounds can actually form strong connections. "中医不仅教会了我治疗和拯救生命的技巧，还教会了我如何看待生命。我开始明白，文化的力量更多地在于它连接心灵的能力，而不是它的独特性。来自不同文化背景的人实际上可以形成牢固的联系。可知，中医教会了作者如何看待生命，并意识到文化的力量不仅仅体现在它的独特性上，更体现在它能够连接人心。这句话表明，文化是一座桥梁，而不是隔阂。故选D。
（2025·浙江模拟）You've seen it happen: you present a fact — clear, undeniable — and instead of reconsidering their position, the other person doubles down. "I just don't believe it," they say. This confusing resistance isn't just frustrating; it's deeply human. Our brains are wired not merely to seek truth, but to defend identity. Welcome to the mind's firewall — our internal system that protects beliefs from intruding (侵入的) evidence. And yet, understanding this firewall is the first step to disarming it, for ourselves and others.
In Elizabeth Kolbert's article "Why Facts Don't Change Our Minds," she draws on studies in cognitive science to show that reasoning evolved not to find truth, but to win arguments. Our brains often favor "motivated reasoning" — seeking information that supports our views and discounting evidence that challenges them. This tendency, known as "confirmation bias (偏见)", helps us maintain a consistent sense of self and stay in line with our social groups. This makes conversations less about learning and more about defending one's territory.
Think of your mind like a computer. Facts are like data packets trying to get through your firewall. But unless they meet certain criteria — emotional relevance, social safety, identity compatibility (兼容) — they're blocked. The mind doesn't simply take in raw information; it tries to make sense of it. Facts alone aren't enough to truly connect or stick. This is especially true in emotionally charged fields like politics, health, or identity. When we feel threatened, the emotional brain overrides the rational (理智的) brain. What feels true outweighs what is true.
If facts can't get past the firewall, what can As discussed in my book The Art of Change, it's not about tearing down the firewall, but about finding alternative paths around it — narrative, emotion, and relationship.
Next time you're trying to change someone's mind — or your own — remember: lead with connection, not argument. Start with shared experiences or values. Use stories, not just analytics. And stay open yourself. Try this: Think of a belief you hold strongly. Then write down three reasons someone might see it differently — not arguments, but genuinely thoughtful reasons. Doing this won't make you weaker in your beliefs. It'll make you wiser in your understanding.
8．What does the author think of the mind's firewall
A．It is natural. B．It is confusing.
C．It is beneficial. D．It is necessary.
9．Why do our brains favor "motivated reasoning"
A．It helps people seek truth.
B．It allows people to defend identity.
C．It makes people learn more about themselves.
D．It enables people to overcome any challenges.
10．What is paragraph 3 mainly about
A．The scientific method for processing facts.
B．The underlying logic of the mind's firewall.
C．The biological structure of the human brain.
D．The conflict between emotional and rational brains.
11．What does the author suggest readers do to change others' minds
A．Argue against their beliefs.
B．Present a through analysis to them.
C．Form an emotional bond with them.
D．Train them to be more open-minded.

【知识点】词义猜测题；细节理解题；段落大意；说明文；科普类
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了人们为何在面对明确事实时仍坚持己见，不轻易改变立场，并分析了这种现象背后的心理机制，即大脑的"防火墙"作用，它保护我们的信念不受外来证据的侵入。
【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解，词义猜测和段落大意三个题型的考查，是一篇科普类阅读，通读全文，理解文章大意，阅读题目后返回原文阅读并找出与题目相对应的内容，仔细核对，选择符合原文原意的答案，完成后再次阅读并检查。
8．细节理解题。根据第一段中的"This confusing resistance isn't just frustrating; it's deeply human."这种令人困惑的阻力不仅令人沮丧；这是人性使然。可知，作者认为mind's firewall是人类大脑的自然机制，故选A。
9．推理判断题。根据第二段中的"Our brains often favor ‘motivated reasoning' — seeking information that supports our views and discounting evidence that challenges them. This tendency, known as ‘confirmation bias (偏见)', helps us maintain a consistent sense of self and stay in line with our social groups."我们的大脑通常倾向于"有动机的推理"—寻找支持我们观点的信息，而忽略挑战我们观点的证据。这种倾向被称为"确认偏见"，它帮助我们保持一致的自我意识，并与我们的社会群体保持一致。可知，大脑偏爱motivated reasoning，以维护自我认同和社会归属感，故选B。
10．段落大意题。根据第三段"Think of your mind like a computer. Facts are like data packets trying to get through your firewall. But unless they meet certain criteria — emotional relevance, social safety, identity compatibility (兼容) — they're blocked. The mind doesn't simply take in raw information; it tries to make sense of it. Facts alone aren't enough to truly connect or stick. This is especially true in emotionally charged fields like politics, health, or identity. When we feel threatened, the emotional brain overrides the rational (理智的) brain. What feels true outweighs what is true."把你的大脑想象成一台电脑。事实就像试图通过防火墙的数据包。但除非他们符合某些标准——情感相关性、社会安全感、身份兼容性——否则他们就会被拒之门外。大脑并不是简单地接受原始信息；它试图让它有意义。事实本身并不足以真正建立联系。这在政治、健康或身份等情绪化的领域尤其如此。当我们感到威胁时，感性的大脑会压倒理性的大脑。感觉真实的东西比真实的东西重要。可知本段通过比喻（防火墙）和科学分析（情感与理性的冲突），解释了为何大脑会排斥不符合自身信念的事实，即大脑防火墙的运作逻辑，故选B。
11．推理判断题。根据最后一段中的"Next time you're trying to change someone's mind — or your own — remember: lead with connection, not argument. Start with shared experiences or values. Use stories, not just analytics. And stay open yourself."下次当你试图改变别人或你自己的想法时，记住：以联系为导向，而不是争论。从共同的经历或价值观开始。使用故事，而不仅仅是分析。可知，此处提出"以联系为导向，而不是争论"，即以情感共鸣而非争论为主导，并建议"使用故事，而不仅仅是分析"，可见是要建立情感联系，故选C。
（2025·浙江模拟）Amir Goldberg discovered a funny thing about American culture on his way to researching the complex topic. Goldberg and his colleagues at Stanford and Yale universities analyzed millions of Yelp and Netflix reviews to reveal that people considered the most culturally adventurous are actually the most resistant to experiences perceived as "crossing the line."
That is, those described as "cultural omnivores (杂食动物)" — because they eat Thai for lunch, play bocce ball after work, and stream a French film that night — are the very ones opposed to mixing it up. No hummus on their hot dogs, forget about spaghetti Westerns, and do not mention Switched-On Bach. Those offerings are not considered culturally authentic. They are a hodgepodge (混杂物) to which these folks would likely wrinkle their collective noses.
"We find these people hate the most atypical offerings," says Goldberg. "They can pretend to be the most open, but it turns out they are not. By being multicultural, they are the most conservative and the most resistant to changes."
The findings are opposite to previous research, which viewed omnivorousness as synonymous with openness. Instead, Goldberg, along with Michael T. Hannan, professor emeritus of organizational behavior at Stanford GSB and Balazs Kovacs of Yale University, write in their paper that "a taste for variety decreases one's receptivity to cultural innovation."
But as the team's research points out, there is a subset of consumers who are open to change. "For cultural novelty to have an impact and occasionally drive change, some agents must be tolerant to breaking traditional boundaries," he says.
The trick is to find and develop them, as Steve Jobs did with the iPhone. Goldberg notes that when the iPhone was first introduced, it confused the public. What is it A phone A computer Many saw the product and dismissed it, deciding phones are for personal communication and computers are for the office. The professor notes that it was Jobs and his loyal followers who changed minds, changed habits, and ultimately changed the global culture.
12．What do we know about "cultural omnivores"
A．They are unwilling to change.
B．They are adventurous customers.
C．They prioritize American culture.
D．They hate culturally authentic offerings.
13．What does the underlined phrase "synonymous with" in paragraph 4 mean
A．Heavily dependent on. B．Greatly superior to.
C．Closely connected with. D．Completely contrary to.
14．What does Goldberg think of the iPhone
A．Confusing. B．Pioneering. C．Convenient. D．Effective.
15．What is the key to overcoming cultural resistance according to the text
A．Educating the public. B．Setting traditional boundaries.
C．Developing innovative products. D．Making use of the open-minded.
【答案】12．A
13．C
14．B
15．D
【知识点】推理判断题；词义猜测题；细节理解题；说明文；社会现象类
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了美国文化中一种看似矛盾的现象：那些被认为在文化上最具冒险精神、被称为"文化杂食动物"的人，实际上对被视为"越界"的文化体验最为抵触。
【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解，词义猜测和推理判断三个题型的考查，是一篇社会现象类阅读，考生需要准确捕捉细节信息，并根据上下文的逻辑关系，进行分析，推理，从而选出正确答案。
12．细节理解题。根据第二段中的"That is, those described as‘cultural omnivores (杂食动物)' — because they eat Thai for lunch, play bocce ball after work, and stream a French film that night — are the very ones opposed to mixing it up."也就是说，那些被称为"文化杂食者"的人——因为他们午餐吃泰国菜，下班后玩地掷球，晚上看法国电影——恰恰是反对混合的人；以及第三段中的"By being multicultural, they are the most conservative and the most resistant to changes."由于文化多元，他们是最保守、最抗拒变化的。可知，文化杂食者恰恰最反对文化混合，也是最保守和不愿意改变的，故选A。
13．词义猜测题。根据第四段中的"The findings are opposite to previous research, "这一发现与之前的研究结果相反；以及"a taste for variety decreases one's receptivity to cultural innovation"对多样性的偏好会降低一个人对文化创新的接受能力。可知， Goldberg 的研究发现与之前的研究结果截然相反，之前的研究认为杂食性和开放性是synonymous with关系，而现在研究表明并非如此，可推知划线词synonymous with应是"紧密相连"的意思。故选C。
14．推理判断题。根据最后一段"The trick is to find and develop them, as Steve Jobs did with the iPhone. Goldberg notes that when the iPhone was first introduced, it confused the public. What is it A phone A computer Many saw the product and dismissed it, deciding phones are for personal communication and computers are for the office. The professor notes that it was Jobs and his loyal followers who changed minds, changed habits, and ultimately changed the global culture."关键在于找到并开发它们，就Steve Jobs开发iPhone一样。Goldberg指出，当iPhone首次推出时，它让公众感到困惑。这是什么？一个电话吗 电脑吗 许多人看到这款产品后都不以为然，认为手机是用于个人交流的，电脑是用于办公室的。这位教授指出，是Jobs和他的忠实追随者改变了思想、习惯，并最终改变了全球文化。可知，Goldberg以iPhone为例子进行说明，提到iPhone最初被公众质疑，但Jobs及其追随者最终改变了全球文化，可推断，Goldberg认为它是开创性的，故选B。
15．推理判断题。根据第五段中的"‘For cultural novelty to have an impact and occasionally drive change, some agents must be tolerant to breaking traditional boundaries,'he says."他说："为了让文化新奇产生影响，偶尔推动变革，一些代理人必须容忍打破传统界限。"；以及最后一段中的"The trick is to find and develop them, as Steve Jobs did with the iPhone. "关键在于找到并开发它们，就像Steve Jobs开发iPhone一样；再结合最后一段Jobs和其追随者改变文化的例子可知，克服文化抵制的关键是利用那些思想开放的人。故选D。
（2025·浙江模拟）Dealing with negativity can be difficult, especially when you're not happy with who you are.　16． 　 However, laughing at yourself is a surprisingly effective way to deal with negative circumstances. Here are some tips to learn to laugh at yourself more in life.
Accept yourself. You know that nobody is perfect.　17． 　 When talking about the "negatives", it's extremely important to know which parts of yourself can be changed and which can't. For example, there's no point in being angry at yourself because you aren't as tall as you'd like to be. You can try all you want, but you'll never change those features of yourself.
　18． 　 Accepting yourself is often so hard because you aren't even looking at yourself — you're just looking at how well you do a certain thing. You've probably done it yourself. You didn't lift as much weight in the gym as the guy next to you You're weak. You didn't finish all of the work you planned to do You're lazy.　19． 　 So instead, you should realize that a single action doesn't determine who you are. This means that laughing about a mistake you once made doesn't mean you're laughing at who you are as a person.
Be humble. You can't laugh at yourself while at the same time trying to maintain the image that you're awesome at everything you do. In other words, you'd better avoid showing off and be more humble instead. A good tip is to think of how insignificant you are in the universe.　20． 　 It reminds you that whatever problems you're dealing with right now don't matter in the end.
A. Be mindful of others.
B. This knowledge can be freeing in a way.
C. Separate yourself from your performance.
D. So how can you learn to laugh about yourself
E. So why would you expect yourself to be any different
F. You can make a mistake, but that doesn't make you the mistake.
G. The last thing you want at this point is for someone to laugh at you.
【答案】16．G；17．E；18．C；19．F；20．B

16．根据空前"Dealing with negativity can be difficult, especially when you're not happy with who you are."应对消极情绪可能很困难，尤其是当你对自己不满意时。可知，此处描述负面情绪下的心理状态；再结合空后"However, laughing at yourself is a surprisingly effective way to deal with negative circumstances."然而，出人意料的是，自嘲是应对负面处境的一种非常有效的方式。可知，此处提出自嘲是有效方法。 G. The last thing you want at this point is for someone to laugh at you. "此时你最不希望的就是有人嘲笑你"承接上文，进一步说明对他人嘲笑的抵触心理，与下文形成转折，引出"自嘲"这一核心话题，符合语境。故选G。
17．根据空前"You know that nobody is perfect."你知道没有人是完美的。指出普遍事实，"没有人是完美的"；以及空后"When talking about the‘negatives', it's extremely important to know which parts of yourself can be changed and which can't."在谈论"缺点"时，清楚地知道自己哪些方面可以改变、哪些无法改变是极其重要的。可知，此处应承上启下的作用，E. So why would you expect yourself to be any different "那么你为什么要期待自己与众不同呢？"承接了上文，以反问句强调人应接受自身不完美，与前文形成因果关系，且引出下文"区分可改变与不可改变的部分"的论述。故选E。
18．根据空后"Accepting yourself is often so hard because you aren't even looking at yourself — you're just looking at how well you do a certain thing."接受自己往往很难，因为你甚至没有在审视自己，而是只关注自己在某件事上的表现。可知，本段主要讨论接受自己很困难地原因，C. Separate yourself from your performance."将自己与表现区分开来"为祈使句，直接点明主旨，作为段落标题，概括下文内容，符合语境。故选C。

You didn't finish all of the work you planned to do You're lazy."你在健身房举起的重量不如旁边那个人多？你太弱了。你没能完成计划好的所有工作？你太懒了。可知，此处列举了两个具体的例子说明一个观点；以及空后"So instead, you should realize that a single action doesn't determine who you are."因此，你应该意识到，一个单独的行为并不能决定你是谁。可知，此处应该是对上文错误观点的否定，F. You can make a mistake, but that doesn't make you the mistake."你可能会犯错，但这并不意味着你就是错误本身"承接上文的例子，进一步论证观点，且与下文为因果关系。故选F。
20．根据空前"A good tip is to think of how insignificant you are in the universe."一个好的建议是想想你在宇宙中有多渺小。提出具体做法；以及空后"It reminds you that whatever problems you're dealing with right now don't matter in the end."它提醒你，无论你现在正面临什么问题，最终都不会那么重要。可知，此处是对空格内容的进一步阐述， B. This knowledge can be freeing in a way. "这种认知在某种程度上可以让人感到解脱"承接上文，阐述该做法的效果，且与下文阐述的内容衔接。故选B。

36．句意：牡丹常被称为花中之王，是中国文化中最具重要意义的花卉之一，其历史可追溯到 2000 多年前。refer"提及，参考"，动词。此处是非谓语动词，与the peony在逻辑上是动宾关系，应用过去分词形式，此处作状语。 故填referred。
37．句意：人们认为它代表着财富、繁荣和荣誉。represent"代表" ，动词。结合固定短语be believed to do sth. "被认为做某事"，所以此处用 不定式to represent作主语补足语。 故填to represent。
38．句意：牡丹在文化上具有重要意义的原因之一是它在历史上与皇室有关联。associate"联系"，动词。根据空前形容词性物主代词its，可知后接名词，associate的名词是association "关联"，此处作表语，作此意时既可以是可数名词，又可以是不可数名词；看作可数名词时，此处应用复数形式表泛指。 故填association (s)。
39．句意：在唐朝，牡丹被认为是宫廷的官方花卉，只有皇室成员和高级官员可以种植和欣赏这些娇美的花朵。consider"认为"，此处是谓语动词。结合时间状语During the Tang Dynasty，表明句子时态为一般过去时，主语 "the peony"和"consider"之间是被动关系，即"牡丹被认为"，所以要用一般过去时的被动语态 "was/were + 过去分词"，主语是单数概念，故用 was considered。 故填was considered。
40．句意：在唐朝，牡丹被认为是宫廷的官方花卉，只有皇室成员和高级官员可以种植和欣赏这些娇美的花朵。official"官员" ，名词。此处作主语，根据语境，这里指多个高级官员，所以要用复数形式 ， 故填officials。
41．句意：根据中国传说，牡丹与一位名叫西王母的美丽女神有关，她在花园里种植牡丹以象征她的永生。 planted peonies in her garden to symbolize her immortality (永生).是非限制性定语从句， 先行词是"Xi Wangmu"，指人，且在从句中作主语，所以用关系代词who引导定语从句， 故填who。
42．句意：因此，牡丹常与长寿和对永生的追求联系在一起。pursue"追求"，动词。此处作宾语，应用名词，pursue的名词形式为 pursuit，故填 pursuit。
43．句意：此外，牡丹在中国婚礼中占有特殊的地位。 这里需要用不定冠词表示 "一个"，"special" 是以辅音音素开头，所以用a。 故填a。
44．句意：它作为爱情和幸福的象征备受赞赏，常被用于婚礼仪式和装饰中。 be admired as...固定短语， "作为……而受到赞美"，这里表示牡丹作为爱情和幸福的象征被赞美，所以用介词 as。 故填as。
45．句意：几个世纪以来，它们丰富的历史、深刻的象征意义和美学价值使它们成为中国最珍贵的花卉之一。make"使成为" ，谓语动词。根据时间状语Over centuries"几个世纪以来"，是现在完成时的时间标志词，强调从过去持续到现在的动作或状态，主语 their rich history, deep symbolism, and aesthetic beauty是复数，所以用现在完成时"have + 过去分词"，即"have made"。 故填have made。

47．（2025·浙江模拟）阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
Here are a few things you need to know about my dad. First, he was a slightly impatient kind of a guy. If he wanted something done, he wanted it done NOW, if not sooner. Second, you need to know that Dad was an early riser. Every single day. No exceptions. No excuses. Work or no work. Holidays or vacation days, there was my father, up and ready to go. Oh, and you should know that Mom was a night owl, up late watching a late movie or a wrestling match.
One more thing about my dad. He was color-blind. That usually doesn't matter. And he was a fairly conservative kind of person. For instance, he bought our new home out in the country and objected immediately to the stucco (灰泥) being a pale peach color. Way too "flashy" for Dad. He hired a painter to cover up all that peach with a nice, not-flashy gray. Dad was fond of gray anyway.
And so, we arrived at the Saturday morning when Dad sprang out of bed as bright-eyed as ever, felt restless, and looked around for something that needed doing. Mom was sound asleep, as usual. My brother and I slept in a bit. There was nobody around to keep an eye on Dad and whatever he decided to do next.
So, Dad decided that the porch (门廊) on our newly gray house needed a fresh coat of paint. He headed off to the hardware store to get paint and painting supplies. He did not tell any of us. Nor did he invite any of us along.
We've never been sure what happened at the hardware store. Did he ask for advice Did he study color samples Did another shopper help him choose Who knows But we're all pretty sure that Dad had no clue what color he was painting the wooden porch. My brother and I woke up, wondered where Dad was, and went looking for him.

Paragraph 1:
We froze in our tracks when we stepped outside.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
Looking at the bright pink porch, we three exchanged looks, unsure how to break the news.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 We froze in our tracks when we stepped outside. The porch, which had been a dull gray, was now a shocking, bright pink. It wasn't just pale pink — it was a glow-in-the-dark pink, a be-seen-for-miles pink, a stop-your-car-to-stare pink. We blinked, wondering if we were still half-asleep. After recovering from the shock, we made a quick dash for Mom. Stumbling around in her robe and floppy slippers, Mom rushed outside. We three stood out front, staring as Dad put the finishing touches on his paint job. Fairly satisfied, Dad turned around with a wide grin and asked for our comments on his "masterpiece".
Looking at the bright pink porch, we three exchanged looks, unsure how to break the news. Finally, Mom took a deep breath and told Dad that the porch was pink, bright pink. Dad froze, his smile fading as he squinted at the porch. We all burst out laughing, and even Dad couldn't help but chuckle once he realized his mistake. From that day on, Dad was forbidden to choose a color for anything and Mom left the pink porch as it was as a reminder. More interestingly, everyone in our area included our house in their directions from then on. "Just hook a left when you've passed the pink porch."
【知识点】文字式记叙文；开放性作文；读后续写
【解析】【分析】本篇书面表达是读后续写。通过阅读文章可知，本文讲述了作者的父亲因色盲将门廊误漆成亮粉色，而家人对此反应各异的有趣故事。段落续写： ① 由第一段首句"我们一走出去，就僵在原地不动了。"提到"我们"看到门廊时的震惊，因此推断本段可描述门廊颜色的巨大反差，妈妈与孩子们的感觉以及和父亲对此的浑然不觉。② 由第二段首句"看着亮粉色的门廊，我们三个交换了一下眼神，不知道该怎么宣布这个消息。"提到三人交换眼神，因此推断本段可描述家人如何向父亲解释颜色问题以及父亲的反应以及鲜艳的门廊带来的结果。 写作时注意准确运用时态，上下文意思连贯，符合逻辑关系，尽量使用自己熟悉的单词句式，同时也要注意使用高级词汇和高级句型使文章显得更有档次。【点评】该续写部分与原文衔接自然，情节发展合理。原文描述了父亲的性格特点、家庭背景以及他决定给门廊重新刷漆的情节，续写部分紧接着描述了孩子们发现门廊被刷成鲜艳粉色的惊讶场景，以及他们如何告知父亲这一"惊喜"。在情节发展、人物刻画、幽默元素、结尾处理以及语言运用等方面都表现得相当出色。文中有一些好的词句，例如：The porch, which had been a dull gray, was now a shocking, bright pink.运用了非限制性定语从句；We blinked, wondering if we were still half-asleep. 运用了现在分词作状语，宾语从句；After recovering from the shock, we made a quick dash for Mom.运用了动名词作介词宾语； Stumbling around in her robe and floppy slippers, Mom rushed outside. 运用了现在分词作状语；We three stood out front, staring as Dad put the finishing touches on his paint job.运用了时间状语从句； Fairly satisfied, Dad turned around with a wide grin and asked for our comments on his "masterpiece".运用了形容词作状语；Finally, Mom took a deep breath and told Dad that the porch was pink, bright pink.

（2025·浙江模拟）A few years ago, a chance encounter with traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) excited my deep interest in this ancient culture. Greatly fascinated, I decided to pursue a systematic study.
I applied to Yunnan University of Chinese Medicine, and I was overjoyed the day I received my admission letter. At the beginning, the ancient Chinese classics and complex processes of herb collection, identification and combination were quite challenging to me. Fortunately, I had the patient guidance of professors and the enthusiastic help of classmates to rely on.
I remember when I first started learning acupuncture (针灸), I was often too hesitant to actually use the needles. To encourage me, my senior classmates generously acted as patients, braving the discomfort to let me practice acupuncture techniques on their bodies. With their support and motivation, my acupuncture skills steadily improved, and my studies quickly got on track.
During my learning journey, the most memorable experience was my internship (实习) at the Yunnan Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine. There, I had the opportunity to participate directly in patient care. I looked forward to every Saturday afternoon when I could shadow my teacher. After each patient consultation, she would give me a detailed explanation: what the patient's pulse (脉搏) indicated, what it represented in terms of their conditions, and the role of each herb in the prescription (处方). This approach helped shape my diagnostic thinking and was incredibly beneficial to me. Even though this meant she could never leave work on time, she never complained. As an ancient Chinese saying goes, "It's easier to get a teacher of classics than a teacher of character."
My every day in China has been filled with challenges and surprises. TCM has taught me not just the skills to heal and save lives but how to view life. I have come to understand that the power of culture lies more in its ability to connect hearts than in its uniqueness. People from different cultural backgrounds can actually form strong connections.
4．Which of the following did the author find difficult when starting studying TCM
A．How to collect ancient Chinese classics.
B．How to combine different herbs properly.
C．How to communicate effectively with professors.

A．To show the complexity of acupuncture.
B．To introduce the procedures of studying TCM.

D．To stress the dangers of improper acupuncture techniques.
6．What does the author mean by the saying in paragraph 4
A．His TCM teacher is highly professional.
B．His TCM teacher is selfless and devoted.
C．His TCM teacher is strict and demanding.
D．His TCM teacher is easy to get along with.
7．What does the author learn from the experience of studying TCM
A．Life is precious. B．Hard work pays off.
C．Uniqueness unites, not divides. D．Culture is a bridge, not a wall.
（2025·浙江模拟）You've seen it happen: you present a fact — clear, undeniable — and instead of reconsidering their position, the other person doubles down. "I just don't believe it," they say. This confusing resistance isn't just frustrating; it's deeply human. Our brains are wired not merely to seek truth, but to defend identity. Welcome to the mind's firewall — our internal system that protects beliefs from intruding (侵入的) evidence. And yet, understanding this firewall is the first step to disarming it, for ourselves and others.
In Elizabeth Kolbert's article "Why Facts Don't Change Our Minds," she draws on studies in cognitive science to show that reasoning evolved not to find truth, but to win arguments. Our brains often favor "motivated reasoning" — seeking information that supports our views and discounting evidence that challenges them. This tendency, known as "confirmation bias (偏见)", helps us maintain a consistent sense of self and stay in line with our social groups. This makes conversations less about learning and more about defending one's territory.
Think of your mind like a computer. Facts are like data packets trying to get through your firewall. But unless they meet certain criteria — emotional relevance, social safety, identity compatibility (兼容) — they're blocked. The mind doesn't simply take in raw information; it tries to make sense of it. Facts alone aren't enough to truly connect or stick. This is especially true in emotionally charged fields like politics, health, or identity. When we feel threatened, the emotional brain overrides the rational (理智的) brain. What feels true outweighs what is true.
If facts can't get past the firewall, what can As discussed in my book The Art of Change, it's not about tearing down the firewall, but about finding alternative paths around it — narrative, emotion, and relationship.
Next time you're trying to change someone's mind — or your own — remember: lead with connection, not argument. Start with shared experiences or values. Use stories, not just analytics. And stay open yourself. Try this: Think of a belief you hold strongly. Then write down three reasons someone might see it differently — not arguments, but genuinely thoughtful reasons. Doing this won't make you weaker in your beliefs. It'll make you wiser in your understanding.
8．What does the author think of the mind's firewall
A．It is natural. B．It is confusing.
C．It is beneficial. D．It is necessary.
9．Why do our brains favor "motivated reasoning"
A．It helps people seek truth.
B．It allows people to defend identity.
C．It makes people learn more about themselves.
D．It enables people to overcome any challenges.
10．What is paragraph 3 mainly about
A．The scientific method for processing facts.
B．The underlying logic of the mind's firewall.
C．The biological structure of the human brain.
D．The conflict between emotional and rational brains.
11．What does the author suggest readers do to change others' minds
A．Argue against their beliefs.
B．Present a through analysis to them.
C．Form an emotional bond with them.
D．Train them to be more open-minded.
（2025·浙江模拟）Amir Goldberg discovered a funny thing about American culture on his way to researching the complex topic. Goldberg and his colleagues at Stanford and Yale universities analyzed millions of Yelp and Netflix reviews to reveal that people considered the most culturally adventurous are actually the most resistant to experiences perceived as "crossing the line."
That is, those described as "cultural omnivores (杂食动物)" — because they eat Thai for lunch, play bocce ball after work, and stream a French film that night — are the very ones opposed to mixing it up. No hummus on their hot dogs, forget about spaghetti Westerns, and do not mention Switched-On Bach. Those offerings are not considered culturally authentic. They are a hodgepodge (混杂物) to which these folks would likely wrinkle their collective noses.
"We find these people hate the most atypical offerings," says Goldberg. "They can pretend to be the most open, but it turns out they are not. By being multicultural, they are the most conservative and the most resistant to changes."
The findings are opposite to previous research, which viewed omnivorousness as synonymous with openness. Instead, Goldberg, along with Michael T. Hannan, professor emeritus of organizational behavior at Stanford GSB and Balazs Kovacs of Yale University, write in their paper that "a taste for variety decreases one's receptivity to cultural innovation."
But as the team's research points out, there is a subset of consumers who are open to change. "For cultural novelty to have an impact and occasionally drive change, some agents must be tolerant to breaking traditional boundaries," he says.
The trick is to find and develop them, as Steve Jobs did with the iPhone. Goldberg notes that when the iPhone was first introduced, it confused the public. What is it A phone A computer Many saw the product and dismissed it, deciding phones are for personal communication and computers are for the office. The professor notes that it was Jobs and his loyal followers who changed minds, changed habits, and ultimately changed the global culture.
12．What do we know about "cultural omnivores"
A．They are unwilling to change.
B．They are adventurous customers.
C．They prioritize American culture.
D．They hate culturally authentic offerings.
13．What does the underlined phrase "synonymous with" in paragraph 4 mean
A．Heavily dependent on. B．Greatly superior to.

（2025·浙江模拟）Dealing with negativity can be difficult, especially when you're not happy with who you are.　16． 　 However, laughing at yourself is a surprisingly effective way to deal with negative circumstances. Here are some tips to learn to laugh at yourself more in life.
Accept yourself. You know that nobody is perfect.　17． 　 When talking about the "negatives", it's extremely important to know which parts of yourself can be changed and which can't. For example, there's no point in being angry at yourself because you aren't as tall as you'd like to be. You can try all you want, but you'll never change those features of yourself.
　18． 　 Accepting yourself is often so hard because you aren't even looking at yourself — you're just looking at how well you do a certain thing. You've probably done it yourself. You didn't lift as much weight in the gym as the guy next to you You're weak. You didn't finish all of the work you planned to do You're lazy.　19． 　 So instead, you should realize that a single action doesn't determine who you are. This means that laughing about a mistake you once made doesn't mean you're laughing at who you are as a person.
Be humble. You can't laugh at yourself while at the same time trying to maintain the image that you're awesome at everything you do. In other words, you'd better avoid showing off and be more humble instead. A good tip is to think of how insignificant you are in the universe.　20． 　 It reminds you that whatever problems you're dealing with right now don't matter in the end.
A. Be mindful of others.
B. This knowledge can be freeing in a way.
C. Separate yourself from your performance.
D. So how can you learn to laugh about yourself
E. So why would you expect yourself to be any different
F. You can make a mistake, but that doesn't make you the mistake.
G. The last thing you want at this point is for someone to laugh at you.

47．（2025·浙江模拟）阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
Here are a few things you need to know about my dad. First, he was a slightly impatient kind of a guy. If he wanted something done, he wanted it done NOW, if not sooner. Second, you need to know that Dad was an early riser. Every single day. No exceptions. No excuses. Work or no work. Holidays or vacation days, there was my father, up and ready to go. Oh, and you should know that Mom was a night owl, up late watching a late movie or a wrestling match.
One more thing about my dad. He was color-blind. That usually doesn't matter. And he was a fairly conservative kind of person. For instance, he bought our new home out in the country and objected immediately to the stucco (灰泥) being a pale peach color. Way too "flashy" for Dad. He hired a painter to cover up all that peach with a nice, not-flashy gray. Dad was fond of gray anyway.
And so, we arrived at the Saturday morning when Dad sprang out of bed as bright-eyed as ever, felt restless, and looked around for something that needed doing. Mom was sound asleep, as usual. My brother and I slept in a bit. There was nobody around to keep an eye on Dad and whatever he decided to do next.
So, Dad decided that the porch (门廊) on our newly gray house needed a fresh coat of paint. He headed off to the hardware store to get paint and painting supplies. He did not tell any of us. Nor did he invite any of us along.
We've never been sure what happened at the hardware store. Did he ask for advice Did he study color samples Did another shopper help him choose Who knows But we're all pretty sure that Dad had no clue what color he was painting the wooden porch. My brother and I woke up, wondered where Dad was, and went looking for him.

【知识点】推理判断题；细节理解题；故事阅读类；记叙文
【解析】【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了作者因一次偶然的机会接触到中医，从而对其产生了浓厚兴趣并决定系统学习中医的经历。
【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解和推理判断两个题型的考查，是一篇故事类阅读，首先要仔细阅读短文，掌握大意，然后结合具体的题目，再读短文，从中找出相关信息，就可以确定正确答案。
4．细节理解题。根据第二段中的"At the beginning, the ancient Chinese classics and complex processes of herb collection, identification and combination were quite challenging to me."一开始，中国古代的经典和复杂的草药采集、鉴定和搭配过程对我来说是相当具有挑战性的。可知，作者在刚开始学习中医时，觉得草药的采集、鉴定和搭配的复杂过程很有挑战性。故选B。
5．推理判断题。根据第三段"I remember when I first started learning acupuncture (针灸), I was often too hesitant to actually use the needles. To encourage me, my senior classmates generously acted as patients, braving the discomfort to let me practice acupuncture techniques on their bodies. With their support and motivation, my acupuncture skills steadily improved, and my studies quickly got on track."我记得当我刚开始学习针灸的时候，我常常太犹豫了，不敢实际使用针灸。为了鼓励我，我的高年级同学慷慨地充当病人，冒着不适让我在他们身上练习针灸技术。在他们的支持和激励下，我的针灸技术稳步提高，我的学业也很快步入正轨。可知，作者提到刚开始学习针灸时遇到的困难。为了鼓励他，学长们自愿成为"病人"，忍受不适让他练习针灸。这段经历的目的是展示学长们的支持，以及学习过程中友好和互助的环境。故选C。
6．推理判断题。根据第四段中的"After each patient consultation, she would give me a detailed explanation: what the patient's pulse (脉搏) indicated, what it represented in terms of their conditions, and the role of each herb in the prescription (处方). This approach helped shape my diagnostic thinking and was incredibly beneficial to me. Even though this meant she could never leave work on time, she never complained. "每次问诊结束后，她都会向我详细解释：病人的脉象说明了什么，从病情角度如何解读，以及处方中每一味中药的作用。这种带教方式塑造了我的诊断思维，让我获益匪浅。尽管这意味着她从未准时下过班，但她从不抱怨。可知，老师详细解释病例以及从未抱怨加班等，可推断，作者想表达的是这位中医老师非常无私和奉献，愿意花时间耐心指导学生。故选B。
7．推理判断题。根据最后一段中的"TCM has taught me not just the skills to heal and save lives but how to view life. I have come to understand that the power of culture lies more in its ability to connect hearts than in its uniqueness. People from different cultural backgrounds can actually form strong connections. "中医不仅教会了我治疗和拯救生命的技巧，还教会了我如何看待生命。我开始明白，文化的力量更多地在于它连接心灵的能力，而不是它的独特性。来自不同文化背景的人实际上可以形成牢固的联系。可知，中医教会了作者如何看待生命，并意识到文化的力量不仅仅体现在它的独特性上，更体现在它能够连接人心。这句话表明，文化是一座桥梁，而不是隔阂。故选D。
【答案】8．A
9．B
10．B
11．C
【知识点】词义猜测题；细节理解题；段落大意；说明文；科普类
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了人们为何在面对明确事实时仍坚持己见，不轻易改变立场，并分析了这种现象背后的心理机制，即大脑的"防火墙"作用，它保护我们的信念不受外来证据的侵入。
【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解，词义猜测和段落大意三个题型的考查，是一篇科普类阅读，通读全文，理解文章大意，阅读题目后返回原文阅读并找出与题目相对应的内容，仔细核对，选择符合原文原意的答案，完成后再次阅读并检查。
8．细节理解题。根据第一段中的"This confusing resistance isn't just frustrating; it's deeply human."这种令人困惑的阻力不仅令人沮丧；这是人性使然。可知，作者认为mind's firewall是人类大脑的自然机制，故选A。
9．推理判断题。根据第二段中的"Our brains often favor ‘motivated reasoning' — seeking information that supports our views and discounting evidence that challenges them. This tendency, known as ‘confirmation bias (偏见)', helps us maintain a consistent sense of self and stay in line with our social groups."我们的大脑通常倾向于"有动机的推理"—寻找支持我们观点的信息，而忽略挑战我们观点的证据。这种倾向被称为"确认偏见"，它帮助我们保持一致的自我意识，并与我们的社会群体保持一致。可知，大脑偏爱motivated reasoning，以维护自我认同和社会归属感，故选B。
10．段落大意题。根据第三段"Think of your mind like a computer. Facts are like data packets trying to get through your firewall. But unless they meet certain criteria — emotional relevance, social safety, identity compatibility (兼容) — they're blocked. The mind doesn't simply take in raw information; it tries to make sense of it. Facts alone aren't enough to truly connect or stick. This is especially true in emotionally charged fields like politics, health, or identity. When we feel threatened, the emotional brain overrides the rational (理智的) brain. What feels true outweighs what is true."把你的大脑想象成一台电脑。事实就像试图通过防火墙的数据包。但除非他们符合某些标准——情感相关性、社会安全感、身份兼容性——否则他们就会被拒之门外。大脑并不是简单地接受原始信息；它试图让它有意义。事实本身并不足以真正建立联系。这在政治、健康或身份等情绪化的领域尤其如此。当我们感到威胁时，感性的大脑会压倒理性的大脑。感觉真实的东西比真实的东西重要。可知本段通过比喻（防火墙）和科学分析（情感与理性的冲突），解释了为何大脑会排斥不符合自身信念的事实，即大脑防火墙的运作逻辑，故选B。
11．推理判断题。根据最后一段中的"Next time you're trying to change someone's mind — or your own — remember: lead with connection, not argument. Start with shared experiences or values. Use stories, not just analytics. And stay open yourself."下次当你试图改变别人或你自己的想法时，记住：以联系为导向，而不是争论。从共同的经历或价值观开始。使用故事，而不仅仅是分析。可知，此处提出"以联系为导向，而不是争论"，即以情感共鸣而非争论为主导，并建议"使用故事，而不仅仅是分析"，可见是要建立情感联系，故选C。
【答案】12．A
13．C
14．B
15．D
【知识点】推理判断题；词义猜测题；细节理解题；说明文；社会现象类
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了美国文化中一种看似矛盾的现象：那些被认为在文化上最具冒险精神、被称为"文化杂食动物"的人，实际上对被视为"越界"的文化体验最为抵触。
【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解，词义猜测和推理判断三个题型的考查，是一篇社会现象类阅读，考生需要准确捕捉细节信息，并根据上下文的逻辑关系，进行分析，推理，从而选出正确答案。
12．细节理解题。根据第二段中的"That is, those described as‘cultural omnivores (杂食动物)' — because they eat Thai for lunch, play bocce ball after work, and stream a French film that night — are the very ones opposed to mixing it up."也就是说，那些被称为"文化杂食者"的人——因为他们午餐吃泰国菜，下班后玩地掷球，晚上看法国电影——恰恰是反对混合的人；以及第三段中的"By being multicultural, they are the most conservative and the most resistant to changes."由于文化多元，他们是最保守、最抗拒变化的。可知，文化杂食者恰恰最反对文化混合，也是最保守和不愿意改变的，故选A。
13．词义猜测题。根据第四段中的"The findings are opposite to previous research, "这一发现与之前的研究结果相反；以及"a taste for variety decreases one's receptivity to cultural innovation"对多样性的偏好会降低一个人对文化创新的接受能力。可知， Goldberg 的研究发现与之前的研究结果截然相反，之前的研究认为杂食性和开放性是synonymous with关系，而现在研究表明并非如此，可推知划线词synonymous with应是"紧密相连"的意思。故选C。
14．推理判断题。根据最后一段"The trick is to find and develop them, as Steve Jobs did with the iPhone. Goldberg notes that when the iPhone was first introduced, it confused the public. What is it A phone A computer Many saw the product and dismissed it, deciding phones are for personal communication and computers are for the office. The professor notes that it was Jobs and his loyal followers who changed minds, changed habits, and ultimately changed the global culture."关键在于找到并开发它们，就Steve Jobs开发iPhone一样。Goldberg指出，当iPhone首次推出时，它让公众感到困惑。这是什么？一个电话吗 电脑吗 许多人看到这款产品后都不以为然，认为手机是用于个人交流的，电脑是用于办公室的。这位教授指出，是Jobs和他的忠实追随者改变了思想、习惯，并最终改变了全球文化。可知，Goldberg以iPhone为例子进行说明，提到iPhone最初被公众质疑，但Jobs及其追随者最终改变了全球文化，可推断，Goldberg认为它是开创性的，故选B。
15．推理判断题。根据第五段中的"‘For cultural novelty to have an impact and occasionally drive change, some agents must be tolerant to breaking traditional boundaries,'he says."他说："为了让文化新奇产生影响，偶尔推动变革，一些代理人必须容忍打破传统界限。"；以及最后一段中的"The trick is to find and develop them, as Steve Jobs did with the iPhone. "关键在于找到并开发它们，就像Steve Jobs开发iPhone一样；再结合最后一段Jobs和其追随者改变文化的例子可知，克服文化抵制的关键是利用那些思想开放的人。故选D。
【答案】16．G；17．E；18．C；19．F；20．B
【知识点】说明文；七选五；学习教育类
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，提供了一些建议，教导人们如何在生活中学会自嘲，以有效应对负面情绪和情境。

16．根据空前"Dealing with negativity can be difficult, especially when you're not happy with who you are."应对消极情绪可能很困难，尤其是当你对自己不满意时。可知，此处描述负面情绪下的心理状态；再结合空后"However, laughing at yourself is a surprisingly effective way to deal with negative circumstances."然而，出人意料的是，自嘲是应对负面处境的一种非常有效的方式。可知，此处提出自嘲是有效方法。 G.

So why would you expect yourself to be any different "那么你为什么要期待自己与众不同呢？"承接了上文，以反问句强调人应接受自身不完美，与前文形成因果关系，且引出下文"区分可改变与不可改变的部分"的论述。故选E。
18．根据空后"Accepting yourself is often so hard because you aren't even looking at yourself — you're just looking at how well you do a certain thing."接受自己往往很难，因为你甚至没有在审视自己，而是只关注自己在某件事上的表现。可知，本段主要讨论接受自己很困难地原因，C. Separate yourself from your performance."将自己与表现区分开来"为祈使句，直接点明主旨，作为段落标题，概括下文内容，符合语境。故选C。
19．根据空前"You didn't lift as much weight in the gym as the guy next to you You're weak. You didn't finish all of the work you planned to do You're lazy."你在健身房举起的重量不如旁边那个人多？你太弱了。你没能完成计划好的所有工作？你太懒了。可知，此处列举了两个具体的例子说明一个观点；以及空后"So instead, you should realize that a single action doesn't determine who you are."因此，你应该意识到，一个单独的行为并不能决定你是谁。可知，此处应该是对上文错误观点的否定，F. You can make a mistake, but that doesn't make you the mistake."你可能会犯错，但这并不意味着你就是错误本身"承接上文的例子，进一步论证观点，且与下文为因果关系。故选F。
20．根据空前"A good tip is to think of how insignificant you are in the universe."一个好的建议是想想你在宇宙中有多渺小。提出具体做法；以及空后"It reminds you that whatever problems you're dealing with right now don't matter in the end."它提醒你，无论你现在正面临什么问题，最终都不会那么重要。可知，此处是对空格内容的进一步阐述， B. This knowledge can be freeing in a way. "这种认知在某种程度上可以让人感到解脱"承接上文，阐述该做法的效果，且与下文阐述的内容衔接。故选B。

【知识点】说明文；社会文化类
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了中国牡丹在中国文化中不仅以其美丽著称，还承载着深厚的象征意义。本文从牡丹的历史背景、与皇室的关联、在中国神话中的地位以及在婚礼中的特殊意义等方面，详细介绍了牡丹在中国文化中的重要性和其所代表的财富、繁荣、荣誉、长寿以及对永生的追求等象征意义，强调了牡丹在中国文化中不可低估的重要地位。
【点评】考查语法填空，本题考点涉及非谓语动词，名词，时态语态，定语从句，冠词，介词以及固定搭配等多个知识点的考查，是一篇文化类阅读，要求考生在理解细节信息的基础上，进一步根据上下文的逻辑关系，并结合相关语法知识，进行分析推理，从而写出正确的单词形式。
36．句意：牡丹常被称为花中之王，是中国文化中最具重要意义的花卉之一，其历史可追溯到 2000 多年前。refer"提及，参考"，动词。此处是非谓语动词，与the peony在逻辑上是动宾关系，应用过去分词形式，此处作状语。 故填referred。
37．句意：人们认为它代表着财富、繁荣和荣誉。represent"代表" ，动词。结合固定短语be believed to do sth. "被认为做某事"，所以此处用 不定式to represent作主语补足语。 故填to represent。
38．句意：牡丹在文化上具有重要意义的原因之一是它在历史上与皇室有关联。associate"联系"，动词。根据空前形容词性物主代词its，可知后接名词，associate的名词是association "关联"，此处作表语，作此意时既可以是可数名词，又可以是不可数名词；看作可数名词时，此处应用复数形式表泛指。 故填association (s)。
39．句意：在唐朝，牡丹被认为是宫廷的官方花卉，只有皇室成员和高级官员可以种植和欣赏这些娇美的花朵。consider"认为"，此处是谓语动词。结合时间状语During the Tang Dynasty，表明句子时态为一般过去时，主语 "the peony"和"consider"之间是被动关系，即"牡丹被认为"，所以要用一般过去时的被动语态 "was/were + 过去分词"，主语是单数概念，故用 was considered。 故填was considered。
40．句意：在唐朝，牡丹被认为是宫廷的官方花卉，只有皇室成员和高级官员可以种植和欣赏这些娇美的花朵。official"官员" ，名词。此处作主语，根据语境，这里指多个高级官员，所以要用复数形式 ， 故填officials。
41．句意：根据中国传说，牡丹与一位名叫西王母的美丽女神有关，她在花园里种植牡丹以象征她的永生。 planted peonies in her garden to symbolize her immortality (永生).是非限制性定语从句， 先行词是"Xi Wangmu"，指人，且在从句中作主语，所以用关系代词who引导定语从句， 故填who。
42．句意：因此，牡丹常与长寿和对永生的追求联系在一起。pursue"追求"，动词。此处作宾语，应用名词，pursue的名词形式为 pursuit，故填 pursuit。
43．句意：此外，牡丹在中国婚礼中占有特殊的地位。 这里需要用不定冠词表示 "一个"，"special" 是以辅音音素开头，所以用a。 故填a。
44．句意：它作为爱情和幸福的象征备受赞赏，常被用于婚礼仪式和装饰中。 be admired as...固定短语， "作为……而受到赞美"，这里表示牡丹作为爱情和幸福的象征被赞美，所以用介词 as。 故填as。
45．句意：几个世纪以来，它们丰富的历史、深刻的象征意义和美学价值使它们成为中国最珍贵的花卉之一。make"使成为" ，谓语动词。根据时间状语Over centuries"几个世纪以来"，是现在完成时的时间标志词，强调从过去持续到现在的动作或状态，主语 their rich history, deep symbolism, and aesthetic beauty是复数，所以用现在完成时"have + 过去分词"，即"have made"。 故填have made。

47．【答案】 We froze in our tracks when we stepped outside. The porch, which had been a dull gray, was now a shocking, bright pink. It wasn't just pale pink — it was a glow-in-the-dark pink, a be-seen-for-miles pink, a stop-your-car-to-stare pink. We blinked, wondering if we were still half-asleep. After recovering from the shock, we made a quick dash for Mom. Stumbling around in her robe and floppy slippers, Mom rushed outside. We three stood out front, staring as Dad put the finishing touches on his paint job. Fairly satisfied, Dad turned around with a wide grin and asked for our comments on his "masterpiece".
Looking at the bright pink porch, we three exchanged looks, unsure how to break the news. Finally, Mom took a deep breath and told Dad that the porch was pink, bright pink. Dad froze, his smile fading as he squinted at the porch. We all burst out laughing, and even Dad couldn't help but chuckle once he realized his mistake. From that day on, Dad was forbidden to choose a color for anything and Mom left the pink porch as it was as a reminder. More interestingly, everyone in our area included our house in their directions from then on. "Just hook a left when you've passed the pink porch."
【知识点】文字式记叙文；开放性作文；读后续写
【解析】【分析】本篇书面表达是读后续写。通过阅读文章可知，本文讲述了作者的父亲因色盲将门廊误漆成亮粉色，而家人对此反应各异的有趣故事。段落续写： ① 由第一段首句"我们一走出去，就僵在原地不动了。"提到"我们"看到门廊时的震惊，因此推断本段可描述门廊颜色的巨大反差，妈妈与孩子们的感觉以及和父亲对此的浑然不觉。② 由第二段首句"看着亮粉色的门廊，我们三个交换了一下眼神，不知道该怎么宣布这个消息。"提到三人交换眼神，因此推断本段可描述家人如何向父亲解释颜色问题以及父亲的反应以及鲜艳的门廊带来的结果。 写作时注意准确运用时态，上下文意思连贯，符合逻辑关系，尽量使用自己熟悉的单词句式，同时也要注意使用高级词汇和高级句型使文章显得更有档次。【点评】该续写部分与原文衔接自然，情节发展合理。原文描述了父亲的性格特点、家庭背景以及他决定给门廊重新刷漆的情节，续写部分紧接着描述了孩子们发现门廊被刷成鲜艳粉色的惊讶场景，以及他们如何告知父亲这一"惊喜"。在情节发展、人物刻画、幽默元素、结尾处理以及语言运用等方面都表现得相当出色。文中有一些好的词句，例如：The porch, which had been a dull gray, was now a shocking, bright pink.运用了非限制性定语从句；We blinked, wondering if we were still half-asleep. 运用了现在分词作状语，宾语从句；After recovering from the shock, we made a quick dash for Mom.运用了动名词作介词宾语； Stumbling around in her robe and floppy slippers, Mom rushed outside. 运用了现在分词作状语；We three stood out front, staring as Dad put the finishing touches on his paint job.运用了时间状语从句； Fairly satisfied, Dad turned around with a wide grin and asked for our comments on his "masterpiece".运用了形容词作状语；Finally, Mom took a deep breath and told Dad that the porch was pink, bright pink. Dad froze, his smile fading as he squinted at the porch. 运用了宾语从句，独立主格结构，时间状语从句；We all burst out laughing, and even Dad couldn't help but chuckle once he realized his mistake. 运用了并列句；From that day on, Dad was forbidden to choose a color for anything and Mom left the pink porch as it was as a reminder.运用了被动语态，并列句，比较转股差距； Just hook a left when you've passed the pink porch.运用了祈使句，时间状语从句。
