阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出最佳选项。
I was desperately
nervous about becoming car-free. But eight months ago our car was hit by a
passing vehicle and it was destroyed. No problem, I thought: we'll buy another.
But the insurance payout didn't even begin to cover the costs of buying a new
car-I worked out that, with the loan （贷款）
we' d need plus petrol, insurance, parking permits and tax, we would make a
payment as much as 600 a month.
And that's when I had
my fancy idea. Why not just give up having a car at all I live in London. We
have a railway station behind our house, a tube station 10 minutes' walk away, and
a bus stop at the end of the street. A new car club had just opened in our area,
and one of its shiny little red Peugeots was parked nearby. If any family in
Britain could live without a car, I reasoned, then surely we were that family.
But my new car-free idea, sadly, wasn't
shared by my family. My teenage daughters were horrified. What would their
friends think about our family being "too poor to afford a car" (I
wasn't that bothered what they thought, and I suggested the girls should take
the same approach. )
My friends, too, were
astonished at our plan. What would happen if someone got seriously ill
overnight and needed to go to hospital (an ambulance) How would the children
get to and from their many events (buses and trains) People smiled as though
this was another of my mad ideas, before saying they were sure I' d soon realize
that a car was a necessity.
Eight months on, I
wonder whether we'll ever own a car again. The idea that you "have
to" own a car, especially if you live in a city, is all in the mind. I
live-and many other citizens do too-in a place that has never been better
served by public transport, and yet car ownership has never been higher. We
worry about rising car costs, but we' d be better off asking something much
more basic：do I really need a car Certainly
the answer is no, and I' m a lot richer because I dared to ask the question.
24．The author decided to live a car-free life partly because ______.
A．most families chose to go car-free
B．he was hurt in a terrible car accident
C．the cost of a new car was too much
D．the traffic jam was unbearable for him
25．What is the attitude of the author抯 family toward his plan
A．Supportive. B．Disapproving. C．Optimistic. D．Unconcerned.
26．What did the author suggest his daughters do about their friends opinion
A．Argue against it. B．Take their advice.
C．Think it over. D．Leave it alone.
27．What conclusion did the author draw after the eight-month car-free life
A．Life cannot go without a car.
B．Life without a car is a little bit hard.
C．His life gets improved without a car.
D．A car-free life does not suit everyone.

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出最佳选项。
Laughter is part of
the human language around the world. Unlike English or French, we don't have to
learn to speak it, and we're born with the ability to laugh. Studies show that
the first laughter appears at about 3.5 to 4 months of age, long before we're
able to speak.
As the saying goes,
"Laughter is the best medicine." Best of all, this priceless medicine
is fun, free and easy to use. Nothing works faster to bring your mind and body
back into balance than a good laugh. It helps relax your whole body leaving
your muscles relaxed for up to 45 minutes. Laughter also helps you fight against
diseases. It can improve the function of blood vessels (血管) and increases blood flow, which can help protect you against a
heart attack.
And the good feeling
you get when you laugh remains with you even a few minutes later. It helps you
keep a positive, optimistic attitude toward difficult situations,
disappointments and losses. Laughter gives you the strength to find new sources
of meaning and hope. Even in the most difficult days, a laugh or even simply a
smile can go a long way toward making you feel better.
Shared laughter is one
of the most effective tools for keeping relationships fresh and exciting. And
it helps build strong and lasting relationships, and it unites people during
difficult times. So it's necessary to create opportunities to laugh with
others. More often, people are very happy to share something funny because it
gives them an opportunity to laugh again. When you hear laughter, find it out
and ask. "What's funny " And you can make time for fun activities
such as bowling, golfing or karaoke.
In short, the ability
to laugh and have fun not only makes life more enjoyable but also helps you
solve problems, connect with others, and be more creative. The more laughter
there is, the more benefits you'll receive.
28．The author develops the second paragraph mainly by ______.
A．telling stories B．providing examples
C．discussing questions D．showing research findings
29．Paragraph 3 mainly talks about ______.
A．the difficult times in one's life
B．the benefits of laughter to our mind
C．the physical health benefits of laughter
D．different ways to feel better about oneself
30．Why does the author suggest laughing with others
A．It strengthens the relationships between people
B．It makes people look much younger.
C．It helps treat many kinds of diseases.
D．It creates opportunities to be friendly.
31．What would be the best title for the text
A．Man梩he Only Creature That Laughs B．Laughing Makes Us Younger
C．Different Types of Laughter D．Why Should We Laugh

Some parents will buy any high-tech toy if they think it will help their child, but researchers said puzzles help children with math-related skills. Psychologist Susan Levine, an expert on mathematics development in young children at the
University of Chicago, found children who play with puzzles between ages 2 and 4 later develop better spatial skills. Puzzle play was found to be a significant predictor of cognition(认知) after controlling for differences in parents' income, education and the amount of parent talk, Levine said.
The researchers analyzed video recordings of 53 child-parent pairs during everyday activities at home and found children who play with puzzles between 26 and 46 months of age have better spatial skills when assessed at 54 months of age.
The children who played with puzzles performed better than those who did not, on tasks that assessed their ability to rotate(旋转)and translate shapes, Levine said in a statement.
The parents were asked to interact with their children as they normally would, and about half of children in the study played with puzzles at one time. Higher-income parents tended to have children play with puzzles more frequently, and both boys and girls who played with puzzles had better spatial skills. However, boys tended to play with more complex puzzles than girls, and the parents of boys provided more spatial language and were more active during puzzle play than parents of girls.
The findings were published in the journal Developmental Science.
32．In which aspect do children benefit from puzzle play
A．Building confidence. B．Developing spatial skills.
C．Learning self-control. D．Gaining high-tech knowledge.
33．What did Levine take into consideration when designing her experiment？
A．Parents' age. B．Children's imagination.
C．Parents' education. D．Child-parent relationship.
34．How do boy differ from girls in puzzle play
A．They play with puzzles more often.
B．They tend to talk less during the game.
C．They prefer to use more spatial language.
D．They are likely to play with tougher puzzles.
35．What is the text mainly about
A．A mathematical method. B．A scientific study.
C．A woman psychologist D．A teaching program.

In the summer before

67．（2023高二下·天祝开学考）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 young boy saw me, or rather, he saw the car and quickly ran up to me, eager to sell his bunches of bananas and bags of peanuts. Though he appeared to be about twelve, he seemed to have already known the bitterness of life. "Bananas 300 naira. Peanuts 200 naira." He said in a low voice. I bargained him down to 200 totals for the fruit and nuts. When he agreed, I handed him a 500 naira bill. He didn't have change, so I told him not to worry. He said thanks and smiled a row of perfect teeth.
When, two weeks later, I saw the boy again, I was more aware of my position in a society where it's not that uncommon to see a little boy who should be in school standing on the corner selling fruit in the burning sun. My parents had raised me to be aware of the advantage we had been afforded and the responsibility it brought to us.
I pulled over and rolled down my window. He had a bunch of bananas and a bag of peanuts ready. I waved them away. "What's up " I asked him.
"I…I don't have money to buy books for school." I reached into my pocket and handed him two fresh 500 naira bills. "Will this help " I asked. He looked around nervously before taking the money. One thousand naira was a lot of money to someone whose family probably made about 5,000 naira or less each year. "Thank you, sir." he said. "Thank you very much!"
When driving home, I wondered if my little friend actually used the money for schoolbooks. What if he's a cheat And then I wondered why I did it. Did I do it to make myself feel better Was I using him Later, I realized that I didn't know his name or the least bit about him, nor did I think to ask.注意：1）续写词数应为 150 左右:
2）请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
One afternoon in September, I went to a poor community. … Joe
led me into his home.

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出最佳选项。
I was desperately
nervous about becoming car-free. But eight months ago our car was hit by a
passing vehicle and it was destroyed. No problem, I thought: we'll buy another.
But the insurance payout didn't even begin to cover the costs of buying a new
car-I worked out that, with the loan （贷款）
we' d need plus petrol, insurance, parking permits and tax, we would make a
payment as much as 600 a month.
And that's when I had
my fancy idea. Why not just give up having a car at all I live in London. We
have a railway station behind our house, a tube station 10 minutes' walk away, and
a bus stop at the end of the street. A new car club had just opened in our area,
and one of its shiny little red Peugeots was parked nearby. If any family in
Britain could live without a car, I reasoned, then surely we were that family.
But my new car-free idea, sadly, wasn't
shared by my family. My teenage daughters were horrified. What would their
friends think about our family being "too poor to afford a car" (I
wasn't that bothered what they thought, and I suggested the girls should take
the same approach. )
My friends, too, were
astonished at our plan. What would happen if someone got seriously ill
overnight and needed to go to hospital (an ambulance) How would the children
get to and from their many events (buses and trains) People smiled as though
this was another of my mad ideas, before saying they were sure I' d soon realize
that a car was a necessity.
Eight months on, I
wonder whether we'll ever own a car again. The idea that you "have
to" own a car, especially if you live in a city, is all in the mind. I
live-and many other citizens do too-in a place that has never been better
served by public transport, and yet car ownership has never been higher. We
worry about rising car costs, but we' d be better off asking something much
more basic：do I really need a car Certainly
the answer is no, and I' m a lot richer because I dared to ask the question.
24．The author decided to live a car-free life partly because ______.
A．most families chose to go car-free
B．he was hurt in a terrible car accident
C．the cost of a new car was too much
D．the traffic jam was unbearable for him
25．What is the attitude of the author抯 family toward his plan
A．Supportive. B．Disapproving. C．Optimistic. D．Unconcerned.
26．What did the author suggest his daughters do about their friends opinion
A．Argue against it. B．Take their advice.
C．Think it over. D．Leave it alone.
27．What conclusion did the author draw after the eight-month car-free life
A．Life cannot go without a car.
B．Life without a car is a little bit hard.
C．His life gets improved without a car.
D．A car-free life does not suit everyone.
【答案】24．C

【知识点】推理判断题；细节理解题；故事阅读类；记叙文
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文。作者的旧车不幸被撞毁了，准备买新车时，发现私家车成本高昂，而作者住址附近的公共交通非常发达，因此作者觉得没有必要买车，但家里人反对，作者说服了家里人，经过八个月后，作者感觉没买车让他变富裕不少。
【点评】 考查阅读理解，涉及细节理解和推理判断两种题型的考查，做细节理解题时一定要找到文章中的原句，和题干进行比较，再做出正确的选择。在做推理判断题不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实，要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断。
24．考查细节理解。根据第一段最后一句“I worked out that, with the loan （贷款） we' d need plus petrol, insurance, parking permits and tax, we would make a payment as much as 600 a month.”我算出来，加上我们需要的贷款，加上汽油、保险、停车许可证和税，我们每月要付600英镑。可知，因为买新车所花的费用太多了，所以作者决定不买汽车了。故选C。
25．考查推理判断。根据第三段第一句“But my new car-free idea, sadly, wasn’t shared by my family.”但不幸的是，我的新无车想法并没有得到我家人的认同。可知，作者不买车的想法并没有得到家人的支持。在本段接下来的内容中详细介绍了家人反对我的观点的理由。故选B。
26．考查推理判断。根据第三段最后一句“What would their friends think about our family being "too poor to afford a car" (I wasn't that bothered what they thought, and I suggested the girls should take the same approach. )”他们的朋友对我们家“穷得买不起车”会怎么想 (我并不介意她们怎么想，我建议女孩们也采取同样的方法。)可知，我并没有受到他们的影响，我建议女儿的朋友应该和我们一样不买汽车。也就是说我建议女儿不要理睬别人的观点。故选D。
27．考查推理判断。根据文章最后两句“We worry about rising car costs, but we' d be better off asking something much more basic：do I really need a car Certainly the answer is no, and I' m a lot richer because I dared to ask the question. ”我们担心不断上涨的汽车成本，但我们最好还是问一些更基本的问题：我真的需要一辆车吗？答案当然是否定的，因为我敢于提出这个问题，所以我变得更富有了。可知，对于是否应该有汽车的问题，我的答案是不。因为我从没车的八个月里得出的结论就是：没了车，我变有钱了。故选C。

Laughter is part of
the human language around the world. Unlike English or French, we don't have to
learn to speak it, and we're born with the ability to laugh. Studies show that
the first laughter appears at about 3.5 to 4 months of age, long before we're
able to speak.
As the saying goes,
"Laughter is the best medicine." Best of all, this priceless medicine
is fun, free and easy to use. Nothing works faster to bring your mind and body
back into balance than a good laugh. It helps relax your whole body leaving
your muscles relaxed for up to 45 minutes. Laughter also helps you fight against
diseases. It can improve the function of blood vessels (血管) and increases blood flow, which can help protect you against a
heart attack.
And the good feeling
you get when you laugh remains with you even a few minutes later. It helps you
keep a positive, optimistic attitude toward difficult situations,
disappointments and losses. Laughter gives you the strength to find new sources
of meaning and hope. Even in the most difficult days, a laugh or even simply a
smile can go a long way toward making you feel better.
Shared laughter is one
of the most effective tools for keeping relationships fresh and exciting. And
it helps build strong and lasting relationships, and it unites people during
difficult times. So it's necessary to create opportunities to laugh with
others. More often, people are very happy to share something funny because it
gives them an opportunity to laugh again. When you hear laughter, find it out
and ask. "What's funny " And you can make time for fun activities
such as bowling, golfing or karaoke.
In short, the ability
to laugh and have fun not only makes life more enjoyable but also helps you
solve problems, connect with others, and be more creative. The more laughter
there is, the more benefits you'll receive.

Even in the most difficult days, a laugh or even simply a smile can go a long way toward making you feel better.”即使几分钟后，当你笑的时候，你所得到的美好感觉仍然会伴随着你。它有助于你对困难、失望和损失保持积极乐观的态度。笑声给你力量去寻找新的意义和希望的来源。即使在最困难的日子里，一个微笑甚至仅仅是一个微笑都能让你感觉更好。可知，这一段主要讲述笑对我们的思想的好处。故选B。

Some parents will buy any high-tech toy if they think it will help their child, but researchers said puzzles help children with math-related skills. Psychologist Susan Levine, an expert on mathematics development in young children at the
University of Chicago, found children who play with puzzles between ages 2 and 4 later develop better spatial skills. Puzzle play was found to be a significant predictor of cognition(认知) after controlling for differences in parents' income, education and the amount of parent talk, Levine said.
The researchers analyzed video recordings of 53 child-parent pairs during everyday activities at home and found children who play with puzzles between 26 and 46 months of age have better spatial skills when assessed at 54 months of age.
The children who played with puzzles performed better than those who did not, on tasks that assessed their ability to rotate(旋转)and translate shapes, Levine said in a statement.
The parents were asked to interact with their children as they normally would, and about half of children in the study played with puzzles at one time.

【答案】56．exceptionally；57．restrictions；58．unbearable；59．a；60．when；61．with；62．expanded；63．thinking；64．grasped；65．truth
【知识点】语法填空
【解析】【分析】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了安妮教授海伦·凯勒学习英语的过程。
【点评】考查语法填空。本题考点涉及副词、名词、形容词、冠词、介词、非谓语动词、时态等多个知识点的考查，要求考生在理解的基础上，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。
56．句意：海伦·凯勒是一个非常特殊的女孩。此处修饰形容词special，应用副词。故填exceptionally。
57．句意：由于她的交流受到了这些限制，她的行为经常让人难以忍受。根据"these"可知，此处需要用名词复数。restrict是动词，表示"限制"，名词是restriction。故填restrictions。

62．句意：从"洋娃娃"到"水"，海伦的知识和词汇量扩大了，这也改变了她的思维过程。分析题干可知，句子缺谓语动词，根据"and this changed"可知，句子描述的是过去的事情，应用一般过去时。故填expanded。
63．句意：从"洋娃娃"到"水"，海伦的知识和词汇量扩大了，这也改变了她的思维过程。根据"process"可知，此处需要用形容词，thinking 作形容词，表示"思想的"。故填thinking。
64．句意：当她掌握了语言的关键，她了解到了更多复杂的词汇。分析题干可知，状语从句中缺谓语动词，句子描述过去的事情，应用一般过去时。故填grasped。
65．句意：最终海伦理解了单词"爱"的美妙真谛。根据"the beautiful"可知，此处需要用名词，truth表示"真相，事实"时，是不可数名词。故填truth。

In your speech, we hope you could introduce the following aspects. To start with, the reasons are cause for concern, including garbage throwing, wasting natural resources, overfishing, among which human activity will be to blame. Meanwhile, the severe consequence should be followed. For example, without better environment, we will have no clear water to drink, no fresh air to breathe.

The young boy saw me, or rather, he saw the car and quickly ran up to me, eager to sell his bunches of bananas and bags of peanuts. Though he appeared to be about twelve, he seemed to have already known the bitterness of life. "Bananas 300 naira. Peanuts 200 naira." He said in a low voice. I bargained him down to 200 totals for the fruit and nuts. When he agreed, I handed him a 500 naira bill. He didn't have change, so I told him not to worry. He said thanks and smiled a row of perfect teeth.
When, two weeks later, I saw the boy again, I was more aware of my position in a society where it's not that uncommon to see a little boy who should be in school standing on the corner selling fruit in the burning sun. My parents had raised me to be aware of the advantage we had been afforded and the responsibility it brought to us.
I pulled over and rolled down my window. He had a bunch of bananas and a bag of peanuts ready. I waved them away. "What's up " I asked him.
"I…I don't have money to buy books for school." I reached into my pocket and handed him two fresh 500 naira bills. "Will this help " I asked. He looked around nervously before taking the money. One thousand naira was a lot of money to someone whose family probably made about 5,000 naira or less each year. "Thank you, sir." he said. "Thank you very much!"
When driving home, I wondered if my little friend actually used the money for schoolbooks. What if he's a cheat And then I wondered why I did it. Did I do it to make myself feel better Was I using him Later, I realized that I didn't know his name or the least bit about him, nor did I think to ask.注意：1）续写词数应为 150 左右:

Then it hit me that I didn't know his name, so I continued," May I have you name " "Joe." He replied. He invited me to his home and I agreed.
Joe led me into his home. It was almost empty. Soon a small shelf filled with looks caught my attention." Thanks to your money, now I can read books anytime, any where!"Hearing his words, I was deeply touched. That afternoon, I asked everything about him: family, study, future plans…I felt more connected with him and became more aware of my responsibility to help the poor. On leaving, I left another two 500 naira bills. This time I knew I was definitely not using him to make myself feel better."
