01 2024新高考I卷
Is comprehension the same whether a person reads a text onscreen or on paper And are listening to and viewing content as effective as reading the written word when covering the same material The answers to both questions are often “no.” The reasons relate to a variety of factors, including reduced concentration, an entertainment mindset (心态) and a tendency to multitask while consuming digital content.
When reading texts of several hundred words or more, learning is generally more successful when it’s on paper than onscreen. A large amount of research confirms this finding. The benefits of print reading particularly shine through when experimenters move from posing simple tasks – like identifying the main idea in a reading passage – to ones that require mental abstraction – such as drawing inferences from a text.
The differences between print and digital reading results are partly related to paper’s physical properties. With paper, there is a literal laying on of hands, along with the visual geography of distinct pages. People often link their memory of what they’ve read to how far into the book it was or where it was on the page.
But equally important is the mental aspect. Reading researchers have proposed a theory called “shallowing hypothesis (假说).” According to this theory, people approach digital texts with a mindset suited to social media, which are often not so serious, and devote less mental effort than when they are reading print.
Audio (音频) and video can feel more engaging than text, and so university teachers increasingly turn to these technologies – say, assigning an online talk instead of an article by the same person. However, psychologists have demonstrated that when adults read news stories, they remember more of the content than if they listen to or view identical pieces.
Digital texts, audio and video all have educational roles, especially when providing resources not available in print. However, for maximizing learning where mental focus and reflection are called for, educators shouldn’t assume all media are the same, even when they contain identical words.
28. What does the underlined phrase “shine through” in paragraph 2 mean
A. Seem unlikely to last. B. Seem hard to explain.
C. Become ready to use. D. Become easy to notice.
29. What does the shallowing hypothesis assume
A. Readers treat digital texts lightly.
B. Digital texts are simpler to understand.
C. People select digital texts randomly.
D. Digital texts are suitable for social media.
30. Why are audio and video increasingly used by university teachers
A. They can hold students’ attention.
B. They are more convenient to prepare.
C. They help develop advanced skills.
D. They are more informative than text.
31. What does the author imply in the last paragraph
A. Students should apply multiple learning techniques.
B. Teachers should produce their own teaching material.
C. Print texts cannot be entirely replaced in education.
D. Education outside the classroom cannot be ignored.

If you want to tell the history of the whole world, a history that does not privilege one part of humanity, you cannot do it through texts alone, because only some of the world has ever had texts, while most of the world, for most of the time, has not. Writing is one of humanity’s later achievements, and until fairly recently even many literate (有文字的) societies recorded their concerns not only in writing but in things.
Ideally a history would bring together texts and objects, and some chapters of this book are able to do just that, but in many cases we simply can’t. The clearest example of this between literate and non-literate history is perhaps the first conflict, at Botany Bay, between Captain Cook’s voyage and the Australian Aboriginals. From the English side, we have scientific reports and the captain’s record of that terrible day. From the Australian side, we have only a wooden shield (盾) dropped by a man in flight after his first experience of gunshot. If we want to reconstruct what was actually going on that day, the shield must be questioned and interpreted as deeply and strictly as the written reports.
In addition to the problem of miscomprehension from both sides, there are victories accidentally or deliberately twisted, especially when only the victors know how to write. Those who are on the losing side often have only their things to tell their stories. The Caribbean Taino, the Australian Aboriginals, the African people of Benin and the Incas, all of whom appear in this book, can speak to us now of their past achievements most powerfully through the objects they made: a history told through things gives them back a voice. When we consider contact (联系) between literate and non-literate societies such as these, all our first-hand accounts are necessarily twisted, only one half of a dialogue. If we are to find the other half of that conversation, we have to read not just the texts, but the objects.
32. What is the first paragraph mainly about
A. How past events should be presented. B. What humanity is concerned about.
C. Whether facts speak louder than words. D. Why written language is reliable.
33. What does the author indicate by mentioning Captain Cook in paragraph 2
A. His report was scientific. B. He represented the local people.
C. He ruled over Botany Bay. D. His record was one-sided.
34. What does the underlined word “conversation” in paragraph 3 refer to
A. Problem. B. History. C. Voice.D. Society.
35. Which of the following books is the text most likely selected from
A. How Maps Tell Stories of the World B. A Short History of Australia
C. A History of the World in 100 Objects D. How Art Works Tell Stories

“I didn’t like the ending,” I said to my favorite college professor. It was my junior year of undergraduate, and I was doing an independent study on Victorian literature. I had just finished reading The Mill on the Floss by George Eliot, and I was heartbroken with the ending. Prof. Gracie, with all his patience, asked me to think about it beyond whether I liked it or not. He suggested I think about the difference between endings that I wanted for the characters and endings that were right for the characters, endings that satisfied the story even if they didn’t have a traditionally positive outcome. Of course, I would have preferred a different ending for Tom and Maggie Tulliver, but the ending they got did make the most sense for them.
This was an aha moment for me, and I never thought about endings the same way again. From then on, if I wanted to read an ending guaranteed to be happy, I’d pick up a love romance. If I wanted an ending I couldn’t guess, I’d pick up a mystery (悬疑小说). One where I kind of knew what was going to happen, historical fiction. Choosing what to read became easier.
But writing the end—that’s hard. It’s hard for writers because endings carry so much weight with readers. You have to balance creating an ending that's unpredictable, but doesn’t seem to come from nowhere, one that fits what’s right for the characters.
That’s why this issue (期) of Writer’s Digest aims to help you figure out how to write the best ending for whatever kind of writing you’re doing. If it’s short stories, Peter Mountford breaks down six techniques you can try to see which one helps you stick the landing. Elizabeth Sims analyzes the final chapters of five great novels to see what key points they include and how you can adapt them for your work.
This issue won’t tell you what your ending should be—that’s up to you and the story you’re telling—bu it might provide what you need to get there.
32. Why did the author go to Prof. Gracie
A. To discuss a novel. B. To submit a book report.
C. To argue for a writer. D. To ask for a reading list.
33. What did the author realize after seeing Gracie
A. Writing is a matter of personal preferences.
B. Readers are often carried away by character.
C. Each type of literature has its unique end.
D. A story which begins well will end well.
34. What is expected of a good ending
A It satisfies readers’ taste. B. It fits with the story development.
C. It is usually positive. D. It is open for imagination.
35. Why does the author mention Peter Mountford and Elizabeth Sims
A. To give examples of great novelists. B. To stress the theme of this issue.
C. To encourage writing for the magazine. D. To recommend their new books.

（23-24高二下·浙江温州·期末）“ChatGPT is a computer program that can understand and respond to text like a person. It’s like havinga conversation with a very smart robot,” says ChatGPT, an artificial intelligence text generator.
In November of 2022, the computer program ChatGPT generated significant public interest across the globe for its broad applications and commercial value. This AI model demonstrated its ability to perform a variety of tasks, from generating book summaries, recommendations, and personal research assistance, to drafting college SOPs, essays, and emails. According to Ehsan Hoque, Associate Professor of Computer Science at UR, while the concepts used to build ChatGPT are not entirely new, combining them with this AI model marks a significant achievement in the field of AI engineering.
With that being said, the system has also generated contention over its possible violation of academic honesty. The use of ChatGPT for homework assignments is a growing concern for professors across the globe. The University, on the other hand, has not addressed or made a statement on this matter.
There are potential academic violations for homework and exams. One such case is Professor of Political Science and Business David Primo. He entered one of his previous test questions into ChatGPT, and ChatGPT got it exactly correct. Despite concerns, Primo understands that the issue of academic honesty is a concern that has existed and will exist forever. He talks about this as well as the many other negative uses of the internet, saying “The internet makes it easy to spread hateful messages and pirate music, but do you want to go back to a time where you couldn’t bank online, or listen to music online ”
Primo also pictures this technological advancement being integrated into classes and assessments in the future. “Universities should move slowly here and let faculty members experiment with various approaches to AI and adapt to a world of AI,” said Primo.
1．What makes the program a great breakthrough
A．Its ability to perform various tasks.
B．Its achievements in learning technology.
C．Its wide application and commercial value.
D．The combination of its concept and AI model.
2．What does the underlined word in the third paragraph mean
A．dispute B．support C．disadvantage D．mistake
3．What might Primo agree with regarding the use of ChatGPT
A．It is a double-edged sword.
B．It has little impact on academia.
C．Its advantages outweigh its disadvantages.
D．It should be prohibited for academic integrity.
4．What is the text mainly about
A．ChatGPT demonstrates its great strength.
B．ChatGPT generates great argument.
C．ChatGPT arouses significant public interest.
D．ChatGPT causes the potential academic violations.
（23-24高二下·江苏·期末）ChatGPT, a powerful AI chatbot tool, has swept the world in the past months. While it has been dominating social media with its frighteningly good essays, ChatGPT has also caused both excitement and worries in education.
According to a US survey of more than 1,000 students, over 89 percent of the respondents had used ChatGPT to help with a homework assignment. Some students even got high scores thanks to papers written by ChatGPT.
Some universities and schools have banned the use of ChatGPT, such as public schools in New York City, CNN reported. The move comes along with growing concerns that the tool could make it easier for students to cheat on assignments and be used to spread inaccurate information.
“While the tool may be able to provide quick and easy answers to questions, it does not build critical-thinking and problem-solving skills, which are essential for academic and lifelong success,” Jenna Lyle, the vice press secretary of the New York City Department of Education, said in a statement.
Apart from strict bans, teachers are redesigning their courses in an attempt to block the use of ChatGPT. Some college professors in the US are now including more oral exams and handwritten papers instead of typed ones, The New York Times reported.
However, not all educators are saying “no” to ChatGPT. Some Canadian universities are not planning on banning the tool. Instead, they are drafting policies on its proper usage, for both students and lecturers.
Bhaskar Vira, vice-president for education at University of Cambridge in the UK, said that bans on AI software like ChatGPT are not sensible (合理的). “I’m of the opinion that we have to recognize that AI is a tool people will use but then adapt our learning, teaching and examination processes so that we can continue to have integrity (诚实) while recognizing the use of the tool,” he told Varsity, the school newspaper of the university.
Vira’s opinion on ChatGPT is shared by Petervan der Putten, assistant professor at Leiden University in the Netherlands. “It’s there, just how like Google is there. You can write it into your policies for stopping cheating but it’s a reality that the tool exists,” he told Sky News.
5．According to the passage, what can ChatGPT help students do
A．Enrich their school life. B．Hand in better papers.
C．Improve their writing skills. D．Spread correct information.
6．What are the professors in US doing to cope with ChatGPT
A．Making policies to ban the use of the tool.
B．Requiring students to write papers by hand.
C．Making laws to recognize the use of the tool.
D．Preventing students from spreading inaccurate information.
7．Which of the following may Vira agree to about using ChatGPT
A．Grasp all, lose all. B．Practice makes perfect.
C．No pains, no gains. D．Every coin has two sides.
8．Which can be a suitable title for the text
A．ChatGPT: An answer giver B．ChatGPT: A perfect tool
C．ChatGPT: A homework designer D．ChatGPT: A cheat helper
（23-24高二上·江苏南通·期末）How often in your busy life when faced with an issue or a problem do you consider subtraction (减法)
Every day, with big and small challenges, we ignore a basic way to make things better. We are great at adding to our “to dos”, but we don’t consider “stop-doings”. We collect new-and-improved ideas, but don’t delete the outdated ones.
Do your resolutions more often start with “I should do more of…” than with “I should do less of…” Do you add new rules in your household or workplace more often than you take rules away In our striving to improve our lives, our work and our society, we overwhelmingly add.
Leidy Klotz’s Lego bridge test, with two support towers of differing heights, found that almost everyone added a Lego brick to the shorter tower, rather than removing a brick from the longer tower. The valid subtraction solution produced a stronger outcome.
Why do we ignore the option to subtract from what is already there Why do we fail to use subtraction as a way to change things
Firstly, behavioural science suggests that our brains are wired to ignore subtraction. Initial studies show that our mental shortcuts have a preference for adding when solving problem. We are tricked by our mindset.
Further, we have a tendency to think addition or subtraction; however, they can be complementary (互补的) ways to make changes.
So we ignore subtraction because it is often harder to think of. Moreover, even when we do manage to think of it, subtracting can be harder to perform.
In chemistry, valency (化合价) refers to an elemental force that is not necessarily visible but helps explain the elements’ behaviour. Psychological valency is the inner attractiveness or strong dislike of something. There is a negative valency around subtracting. Even the word subtraction has a negative valency.
Subtraction is the act of getting to less but it is not the same as doing less. Getting to less often means doing, or at least thinking, more. In your pursuit of success and happiness I encourage you to overcome the tendency to ignore subtraction. Subtracting can be delightful!
9．What do people usually do when faced with problems in life
A．Adopt subtraction. B．Stop doing things.
C．Add new rules. D．Abandon outdated ideas.
10．How did the author prove his viewpoint
A．By comparing examples. B．By conducting a survey.
C．By analyzing statistics. D．By citing a typical test.
11．What causes people to ignore the option of subtraction
A．Initial fixed mindset. B．Resistance to change.
C．Flexible mental desire. D．Expectation for success.
12．What does the author intend to do in the last paragraph
A．State possible reasons. B．Offer valuable advice.
C．Give some warnings. D．Provide useful proof.
（23-24高二上·山东德州·期末）The house had been cleaned and decorated elegantly. The air smelt fresh. Little labels on all we saw around the house displayed important details: date of purchase and the current selling price. We were at a garage sale. There was no talking or bargaining. Buyers could pick up at the listed price.
All efforts that release cash that is locked into stuff touch me deeply. If they break conventional ideas, I will like them even more. It is my view that people love to follow suit and end up with emotions they ought to feel, rather than being true to themselves. To say that one does not care for one’s grandmother’s necklace is considered rude, so one would simply keep it in the locker and pass it on to the next generation.
No longer so, I am guessing.
It’s not always about money, but perhaps about considering one’s choices. My argument always is to use stuff, if you like it so much. Wear those pieces of jewellery; use those pieces of furnitures; take home those piles of old-time bedsheets. But if none of them fit into your current home, allow someone else to take them home. Turn those properties over instead of leaving them unused.
Hoarding (囤积) is not a virtue. It is a waste of the money that is locked into the property you are hoarding. I may use it sometime in the future, say some. Give that a time frame. If you are holding something you haven’t used even once in five years, ask yourself if someone else may need it. Don’t sell if you don’t care for money; but do give it away.
All else needs to earn their place for their value and usefulness for you. Celebrate the liberation from hoarding and let there be light!
13．What do people often do at the garage sale
A．Purchase a garage. B．Label their belongings.
C．Talk about decoration. D．Trade their unused stuff.
14．Why does the author mention “necklace” in paragraph 2
A．To call for respect towards the elderly.
B．To advocate holding onto the family tradition.
C．To show the financial condition of an average family.
D．To prove people tend to follow suit against their wills.
15．What does the author believe according to paragraph 4
A．It is a good idea to save money.
B．A good taste counts in purchase.
C．Unused items deserve a new owner.
D．The outdated should be thrown away.
16．What is the author’s purpose of writing the passage
A．To call on people to get rid of hoarding.
B．To show his worry about wasting resources.
C．To draw attention to conserving the traditions.
D．To inspire people to spend more on meaningful things.
（23-24高二上·河南洛阳·期末）Will your job be done by a robot in the future Bank of England economist s predict that almost half of all UK jobs are under threat of automation. But could even the admired profession of teaching soon have to compete against powerful electronic educators
At first glance, teaching might seem impossible to be replaced by robots. Teachers use a range of soft skills that machines find hard to copy exactly. They judge pupils’ needs and tailor feedback accordingly. They adapt materials to make them more engaging and effective. And they provide kind care: looking out for students who drop behind or disturb the class.
Despite that, some believe the future of education will be technological. Futurist Thomas Frey, from Business Insider magazine, predicts that “by 2030 the largest company on the internet is going to be an education-based company that we haven’t heard of yet.”
He thinks that ‘bots’— online robot teachers will make education so efficient that students will be able to compress (压缩) an entire undergraduate degree into six months of learning. A bot learns what your “idiosyncrasies”“interests” and “reference points” are, “and it figures out how to teach you in a faster and faster way over time,” according to Frey.
Whether or not such incredible speeds will be reached over the last decade, there has been a huge increase in online learning panies such as Udemy and Khan Academy produce courses that allow millions to learn at home for free at their own pace. But there are limitations. Without the face-to-face inspiration of a classroom environment, the majority of students fail to complete online courses. How to keep motivation to learn is one more skill that online teachers will need to master.
Indeed, Frey admits there is some way to go: “Nobody has quite cracked the code for the future of education.” What do teachers themselves think about this Professor Donald Clark from Derby University in the UK thinks that we should accept change, even though people will lose their jobs.
17．What’s the second paragraph mainly about
A．Teaching by robots can be replaced. B．The advantages of face-to-face teaching.
C．Human teachers will be replaced by robots. D．The potential of the electronic educators.
18．What does the underlined word “idiosyncrasies” in Paragraph 4 most probably mean
A．Personalities. B．Senses. C．Nationalities. D．Families.
19．Why are Udemy and Khan Academy mentioned
A．To tell how online learning is progressing. B．To show the significance of online learning.
C．To explain people how online learning works. D．To suggest the shortcomings of online learning.
20．What might be talked about following the last paragraph
A．How robots will change in the future. B．How artificial intelligence will destroy jobs.
C．How educators will meet the future challenge. D．How electronic educators will lose their jobs.
（23-24高二上·四川德阳·期末）When people wanted to find their way to a place in the past, they used to have to buy a map. They don’t have to do that any more. Now they can either buy a GPS, or go online and find maps for just about anywhere.
Is this an improvement Perhaps, but some people think some of the online companies are going too far, because they have been sending out cars with photographic equipment on their roofs, to photograph every street and house in the country.
One of these cars arrived on a Wednesday morning in the quiet English village of Broughton. The camera was on a metre-high pole on top of the car and could see over walls and into people’s gardens. Some of the villagers came and stood around the car, and asked the driver and photographer to go away. Journalists quickly arrived on the scene, and soon the event was news all over the country.
Of course, the online company in question claims that it is simply collecting information that people on the Internet want. But Broughton residents feel differently. “We used to have privacy in this country. Now companies just come and take photographs of our homes without even asking,” said one resident. “It’s not right. We mustn’t let this happen. We mustn’t lose our right to live privately.”
There is, of course, no law to prevent people from taking photographs of houses, so the residents cannot go to court. But many people are asking the question: OK, it’s legal, but is it right This is a question that won’t go away very quickly.
21．Why did the car with a camera on the car roof come to Broughton
A．To test whether their GPS works in the village.
B．To investigate for a law case for the country.
C．To spy on villagers and their life in Broughton.
D．To collect information for their online maps.
22．What can be inferred about the incident in Broughton
A．The incident drew people’s attention all over the world.
B．The incident made online maps popular among the local residents.
C．The local residents were curious about what these people were doing.
D．The local residents were upset about their privacy not being respected.
23．What can we learn from the last paragraph
A．The law should be changed to protect the residents.
B．The incident will remain a hot topic for people to discuss.
C．The residents accept what the company was doing in their neighborhood.
D．The residents can sue (控告) the company for violating their privacy.
24．What can be the best title of the passage
A．A strange car! B．It’s legal, but is it right
C．Say goodbye to paper maps. D．Privacy gives way to technology.
（23-24高二上·河南焦作·期末）Imagine you need milk, so you go to the grocery store to pick some up, only to find there are dozens of options. These days, you have to make a decision on not only the percentage of fat you want, but also what source you want your milk to be coming from: cows, soybeans... You have no idea what milk to pick. There are so many choices that you are confused.
This phenomenon is known as the paradox (悖论) of choice and it is becoming a concern in the modern world, where more and more options are becoming easily available to us. While we might believe that being presented with multiple options actually makes it easier to choose one that we are happy with, and thus increases consumer satisfaction, having too many options actually requires more effort to make a decision and can leave us feeling unsatisfied with our choice.
The idea was popularized by American psychologist Barry Schwartz when he published his book, The Paradox of Choice: Why More Is Less. Schwartz, who has long studied the ways in which economics and psychology intersect (交叉), became interested in seeing the way that choices were affecting the happiness of citizens in Western societies. He identified that the range of choices that we have available to us these days is far greater than that people had in the past; however, consumer satisfaction has not increased as much as traditional economics theories might expect.
Schwartz identified that the paradox of choice carries the most consequence for people that are maximizers. Maximizers, unlike satisficers, are concerned with making the best choice instead of simply making a choice that they are happy with. When there are many options available to maximizers, it becomes harder for them to determine which is the best, which can cause them to feel a great deal of regret after they have made a choice.
Instead of believing that freedom of choice is unlimited, Schwartz advocates that the role of psychology and behavioral economics should be to find the kind of limitations on freedom that can lead to the greatest level of happiness within society.
25．What’s the author’s purpose in mentioning buying milk in paragraph 1
A．To lead in the topic.
B．To draw a conclusion.
C．To show that we have more choices when shopping.
D．To indicate that people pay greater attention to health when shopping.
26．What does the paradox of choice suggest
A．More options mean less satisfaction.
B．Consumer satisfaction has greatly increased.
C．People are happy with more choices.
D．Modern people are happier than their ancestors.
27．What can be learned about satisficers
A．They aim for the very best. B．They tend to follow their feelings.
C．They often regret their decisions. D．They have trouble making a decision.
28．What does Schwartz suggest people do
A．Hold on to their beliefs. B．Accept their own behavior.
C．Give up freedom. D．Limit their own choices.
（23-24高二上·湖南岳阳·期末）Technology is more than an abstract concept associated with advanced tools and systems. It also shapes the way people behave, grow and develop, both within their own lives and in their relationships with others. While technology has developed over thousands of years, the last century has seen an explosion in technology that has influenced fundamental changes in how humans see the world and interact with others. Specifically, the Internet and mobile devices have completely changed the way people interact with each other. There has been a debate going on whether technology is benefiting human communication or ruining (破坏) it.
Undoubtedly, technology is helping people build newer and necessary communication skills. In business, office employees and managers use technology to send emails to one another, which is considered a communication skill. On social media, just share a few of your images and people start communicating on and about your images according to their viewpoint. With the outbreak of COVID-19, in order to work on the projects, the students use their phones to reach their teachers and classmates.
However, technology is sometimes considered to disconnect people from others around them. With cell phones, most people think that it’s easier and more convenient to text instead of meeting in person. Lucas Lengacher, an undergraduate from Huntington University, claims in his article that at least 42.91% people respond to messages immediately yet only 2.83% people don’t check their phones in the morning. In his research he found that almost 60 percent of people felt disconnected from others around when they were on their phones.
29．Which has basically influenced human interaction according to the passage
A．People’s value. B．Social systems.
C．Mobile devices. D．Communication skills.
30．What does the second paragraph mainly talk about
A．The technology is benefiting human communication.
B．The technology is ruining human communication.
C．People began to communicate with e-mails.
D．The outbreak of COVID-19 helps new technology develop.
31．What does Lucas’s research find
A．Phones are getting more and more popular.
B．Phones disconnect us when we are together.
C．People are eager for personal communication.
D．People communicate less because of physical distance.
32．What is the author’s attitude to technology
A．Disappointed. B．Positive. C．Doubtful D．Objective
（23-24高三上·广东深圳·期末）First-year college students often are expected or required to live in dormitories. In the rest years, it’s usually up to those students to decide whether to live on or off campus.
But some schools don’t provide an option and require four years of on-campus living for full-time students. Living on campus has been shown to increase retention (保留) and attendance rates among freshman and second-year students, according to a 2021 report. There are exceptions, however. At some colleges, students may be freed from the requirement if they are, for instance, commuters (通勤生), fifth-year seniors, at least 23 years of age or legally married.
Residential housing at colleges is not limited to shared rooms and bathrooms. Alternatives include flats, apartments, Greek houses or living-learning communities for students with shared interests. On-campus students also have access to services and resources such as residence life staff who can help if a housing issue arises. When students live in a community, they are forced to live with different people, learn more about themselves and about the others, and tell each other their stories.
On the other hand, off-campus living provides students with more independence, as they are not constrained by school housing policies. Off-campus students gain more real-world experience in areas like paying their own bills, finding renter’s insurance, cooking their own meals and negotiating or reviewing contracts. If students are choosing to live off campus, they should really think it through and talk to someone that lived off campus. Do their homework and look at all the costs before they make that decision. Make sure, too, that they are choosing people that they can live with.
At first glance, off-campus housing can appear less expensive. But the additional expenses outside of rent — like utilities, groceries, Internet access, cable and furniture — are often overlooked. To reduce off-campus costs, some students choose to overpack houses or apartments, sometimes with four or five people in a two-bedroom house. Unlike off-campus housing, the total cost of living on campus is typically all-inclusive, coveting rent, utilities, furniture, Wi-Fi and a meal plan.
33．Why do some colleges require all the students to live on campus
A．To keep them stay longer on campus for classes.
B．To make sure all students can live in shared rooms.
C．To make as much profit as possible for the colleges.
D．To monitor all of their students as easily as possible.
34．What should students do before living off campus
A．They should find someone to take care of them.
B．They should fully develop the ability to live alone.
C．They should learn all aspects of off-campus living.
D．They should seek accommodation through an agent.
35．What does the underlined word “overpack” in the last paragraph mean
A．Overlook. B．Overconsume. C．Overestimate. D．Overload.
36．What is the best title for the text
A．Residential Housing At Different Colleges
B．Choice Between Housing On or Off Campus
C．Accommodation Situation For College Students
D．Different Living Experience On or Off Campus
（23-24高一下·江苏苏州·期末）People send messages every day on social media. These online conversations can have a huge impact and shape how societies make decisions. But there is a growing problem. Sometimes people don’t listen to each other and can say really hurtful things. Would it be better if there were an advisor in online talks We tried to use artificial intelligence (AI) (人工智能) to carry out this task.
So, we did an online experiment with pairs of people discussing a challenging topic. In the first group, one participant (参与者) in each pair had an AI helper. The AI tried to make sure the discussion was polite and respectful. It didn’t change the participant’s point of view, though! The participant could accept or refuse the suggestions or completely edit the message an AI helper offers. In the control group, the people had a conversation on the same topic but neither of the participants had an AI helper. After the discussions ended, the pairs shared their thoughts on how good the conversation was.
In our study, the participants accepted the AI’s suggestions two thirds of the time. When they used the AI’s suggestions, the messages became more positive and polite. Participants whose partners used the AI reported feeling better about the conversation. They were more willing to understand and respect each other, even if they still disagreed. The people who used the AI themselves didn’t report a huge change in how they felt about the conversation. However, they were more willing to respect the opinions of others!
The results of our study show that AI did a good job of making online discussions polite. But you don’t need a reminder to be respectful. Even in the vast digital world, each conversation matters. Your choice to be kind and respectful can make a big difference. It can promote a culture of healthy discussion and understanding. This is also true for real-life conversations.
37．What do the underlined words “this task” in paragraph 1 probably refer to
A．Starting talks. B．Guiding conversations.
C．Changing views. D．Sending messages.
38．What do we learn about participants with AI helpers
A．They responded to AI politely. B．They changed views as AI suggested.
C．They tended to respect others’ views. D．They experienced mixed feelings.
39．What does the author want to stress in the last paragraph
A．The effectiveness of AI in online discussions. B．The significance of respectful communication.
C．The importance of reminders in conversations. D．The balance between technologies and choices.
40．Which is the most suitable title for the text
A．Can Al remove mean posts B．Can AI make online talks kinder
C．How to respect different opinions D．How to reach an agreement online
（23-24高一下·四川成都·期末）Once there was a circle that was incomplete because a large triangular wedge (三角形楔子) had been cut out. The circle wanted to be whole with nothing missing, so it went around looking for its missing piece.
But because it was incomplete, it could roll only very slowly. As it rolled slowly, it admired the flowers along the way. It chatted with worms. It enjoyed the sunshine. It found lots of different pieces, but none of them could fit. So it left them all by the side of the road and kept on searching. Then one day the circle found a piece that fit perfectly. It was so happy. Now it could be whole, with nothing missing. It took the missing piece into itself and began to roll. Now that it was a perfect circle, it could roll very fast, too fast to notice the flowers or talk to the worms.
To some extent, we are more whole when we are missing something. The man who has everything is in some ways a poor man. He will never know what it feels like to dream of something better. There is a wholeness about the person who has come to terms with(接纳) his limitations, who has been brave enough to let go his unrealistic dreams without feeling like a failure for doing so. There is a wholeness about the man or woman who has learned that he or she is strong enough to go through a tragedy and survive, who can lose someone and still feel like a complete person.
When we accept that imperfection is part of being human, and when we can continue rolling through life and appreciating it, we will have achieved a wholeness that others could only long for. We can achieve fulfillment that no other living creature will ever know.
41．What can we know about the circle
A．It suffered a lot during its journey. B．It felt disappointed to be incomplete.
C．It was replaced by a triangular wedge. D．It accepted its incompleteness gradually.
42．Why does the author share with readers the story of the circle
A．To show he’s humorous. B．To prove that we need to be perfect.
C．To make his argument more persuasive. D．To explain the importance of being complete.
43．How can we achieve fulfillment according to the author
A．By working hard. B．By pursuing perfection.
C．By doing better than others. D．By accepting our imperfection and moving on.
44．What can be the best title for the text
A．True Meaning of Life B．Ways to Achieve Success
C．Learning to Appreciate Life D．To Be More Complete with Imperfection
（23-24高三上·江苏扬州·期末）“Woman reading book, under a night sky, dreamy atmosphere,” I type into Deep Dream Generator’s Text 2 Dream feature. In less than a minute, an image is returned to me showing what I’ve described.
Welcome to the world of AI image generation, where you can create what on the surface looks like top-rank artwork using just a few text prompts (提示). But closer examination shows oddities. The face of the woman in my image has very odd features, and appears to be holding multiple books. And, while there’s an initial thrill at seeing an image appear, there’s no creative satisfaction.
AI image generation could influence everything from film to graphic novels and more. Children’s illustrators were quick to raise concerns about the technology. They say AI-generated art is the exact opposite of what art is believed to be. Fundamentally, art is all about translating something that you feel internally into something that exists externally. Whatever form it takes, true art is about the creative process much more than it’s about the final piece. And simply pressing a button to generate an image is not a creative process.
Beyond creativity, there are deeper issues. To create images from prompts, AI generators rely on databases of already existing art and text. This could lead to the creation of images that are intentionally meant to imitate the style of other artists, without their agreement. There is an argument that AI generators work no differently to humans when it comes to being influenced by others’ work. However, a human artist is also adding emotion and nuance (细微差别) into the mix. AI doesn’t do the same — it can only copy.
The increasing use of AI will also lead to a devaluing (贬低) of the work of artists. There’s already a negative prejudice towards the creative industry. People will begin to think that their “work” is as excellent as that created by someone who has spent a career making art. It’s nonsense, of course. You can use your mobile phone to take a nice picture of your daughter, but you are no match for professionals.
45．What does the writer think of his image creation
A．Exciting. B．Appealing
C．Unsatisfying. D．Shocking.
46．What do children’s illustrators value most about art
A．The creating process. B．The final work.
C．Personal feelings. D．External forms.
47．What is Paragraph 4 of the text mainly about
A．The styles of human artworks and AI ones.
B．Human artists’ influence on AI generators.
C．Different means used in human and AI art creation.
D．The drawbacks of drawing from existing art and text.
48．Which of the following best summarizes the last paragraph
A．Art is the mirror of life. B．Rome is not built in a day.
C．No man can do two things at once. D．Don’t judge a book by its cover.
（23-24高三上·山东青岛·期末）A therapy (治疗) client and I are working on an eating disorder and find it originated from a relationship break-up or perhaps being bullied in middle school. Such hurtful experiences led to not eating for a couple of weeks. Then comes a high praise from a friend that totally backfires. Maybe it’s an enthusiastic, “Wow, you look great!’’ In a flash, this praise excites an inner and often unconscious thought: “Oh, people care more about me if I lose weight. So many things feel out of control but I can control people’s affection by not eating.”
Often, very well-intentioned individuals offer praise out of a desire to uplift and connect. Such praise is often tied, directly or indirectly, to a person’s relationship with the standards of a specific group or institution. Sadly, such praise can easily reduce an individual’s dignity to their level in line with the group’s expectations rather than supporting their inherent (固有的) dignity and worth. So, what’s a better way
One answer is to exit the game of “right and wrong” and enter a more life-giving focus on what needs are present. Returning to our example above, when you see that someone has lost weight and you want to give them a praise, just pause and take a deep breath. Simply ask, “How are you doing ” See them and hear them. Appreciate them as a person of limitless value. Know there may be much more to their inner world than meets the eye. Similarly, when you see someone’s success in school, appreciate the hard work they put into it. Ask with gentle curiosity, “How’s it been for you ” Listen with your full attention that in itself can be a rare gift in today’s hustle and bustle world.
By maintaining your concern and listening to the ways they want to be accompanied and supported — even when it might not be your first instinct — you can see them as a whole person, with complex feelings, very human needs, and inherent dignity.
49．What does the underlined word “backfires” in paragraph 1 refer to
A．Improves the situation. B．Shows sincere concern.
C．Removes hurtful feelings. D．Produces an unexpected result.
50．What is paragraph 2 mainly about
A．Analyzing the phenomenon. B．Listing another example.
C．Presenting the solution. D．Making a proposal.
51．Why does the author suggest simply asking “How are you doing”
A．To start a light conversation.
B．To focus on one’s inner needs.
C．To explore the secret of keeping slim.
D．To show appreciation for one’s efforts.
52．What might be the title for the text
A．Say No to the “Right or Wrong” Game
B．Why We Need to Make Praises to Others.

（23-24高三上·山东青岛·期末）Parents everywhere praise their kids. Jenn Berman, author of The A to Z Guide to Raising Happy and Confident Kids, says, “We’ve gone to the opposite extreme of a few decades ago when parents tended to be more strict.” By giving kids a lot of praise, parents think they’re building their children’s confidence, when, in fact, it may be just the opposite. Too much praise can backfire and, when given in a way that’s insincere, make kids afraid to try new things or take a risk for fear of not being able to stay on top where their parents’ praise has put them.
Still, don’t go too far in the other direction. Not giving enough praise can be just as damaging as giving too much. Kids will feel like they’re not good enough or that you don’t care and, as a result, may see no point in trying hard for their accomplishments.
So what is the right amount of praise Experts say that the quality of praise is more important than the quantity. If praise is sincere and focused on the effort not the outcome, you can give it as often as your child does something that deserves a verbal reward. “We should especially recognize our children’s efforts to put themselves and work hard to achieve a goal,” says Donahue, author of Parenting Without Fear: Letting Go of Worry and Focusing on What Really Matters. “One thing to remember is that it’s the process not the end product that matters.”
Your son may not be the best basketball player on his team. But if he’s out there every day and playing hard, you should praise his effort regardless of whether his team wins or loses. Praising the effort and not the outcome can also mean recognizing your child when she has worked hard to clean the yard, cook dinner, or finish a book report. But whatever it is, praise should be given on a case-by-case basis and be proportionate (相称的) to the amount of effort your child has put into it.
53．What can be implied from Jenn Berman’s remarks
A．Parents praise their kids too much.
B．Going to the extremes is common for parents.
C．Parents should understand their kids better.
D．Confidence is significant for kids’ well being.
54．What does the underlined word “backfire” mean
A．Give support. B．Get undesired effect.
C．Put a fire under control. D．Become powerful.
55．As to giving children praise, which aspect will Donahue agree to
A．Praise your children as often as possible.
B．Never expect much of your children.
C．All children deserves a verbal reward.
D．Children’s effort outweighs the result.
56．How does the author develop the last paragraph
A．By answering a question. B．By giving examples.
C．By quoting. D．By making comparison.
（23-24高三上·河南南阳·期末）I bet you have heard about the story of the frog and the boiling water. If you have no idea what the story is all about, here it is…
It is a famous fable which surrounds the personal development industry that describes a frog in boiling water. If you put a frog into a pot of boiling water, it will jump out, but if you put the frog into a pot of lukewarm (不冷不热的) water and then slowly boils the water, the frog will eventually be heated to death due to its unconsciousness of the gradual temperature change.
Many people go through life without noticing the gradual changes, which causes them all sorts of problems. When you are in your twenties, you can eat whatever you want, ice-creams, junk foods, chips, chocolates, and you can even party all night without feeling tired or exhausted the next day. But when you get to your forties, you will notice the change. You will feel that you’re not as energetic as when you’re in your twenties. Plus, your metabolism rate will decrease. And if you continue to eat and put in all junk foods into your stomach, you will develop a bloated belly.
The story of the frog and the boiling water gives us a good hint about how our failure to notice gradual changes in our life can cause us huge problems. If you keep spending without saving, when you get to your fifties, you will regret not saving enough for retirement.
If you blame and make excuses every day and you don’t work on your future, after 10 years down the road, you will have hoped that you started earlier. You will wish that you have a time machine so that you can start over again.
Never let the “slow boiling water” kills you. Instead, learn to improve and cope with whatever you can right now. You don’t have to wait for the perfect moment to start. You don’t have to know and understand everything only to begin. You can start right now.
57．What results in the death of the frog in the lukewarm water
A．Its personal development industry. B．Its unawareness of the rising temperature.
C．Its surrounding industry’s great influence. D．Its adaptation to the slowly rising temperature.
58．How does Paragraph 3 develop
A．By contrast. B．By time. C．By reasoning. D．By assumption.
59．What will most probably be talked about in the next paragraph
A．Good hints. B．Tips to improve.
C．“Slow boiling water” skills. D．The best moment to start.
60．What can we learn from the text
A．Still waters run deep. B．Good wine needs no bush.
C．Great minds think alike. D．A young idler, an old beggar.
（23-24高三上·湖南娄底·期末）Recently, I was walking with some parents when we came across a five-pound note lying on the ground. We stood around it for a moment, a bit awkwardly, until someone suggested putting it on a nearby bench. Then one of the parents remarked that we’d probably have behaved differently — that is, we would have just taken the money — had we been alone.
This relates to a classic question in studies of human generosity: do we behave more selfishly when we aren’t being observed The debate goes on across the psychological and biological sciences, as well as in popular culture, about whether kindness can exist in a competitive world.
Yom Kippur is a Jewish (犹太人的) religious holiday when Jewish people fast and ask for forgiveness for the wrongs they’ve committed. One of the points of Yom Kippur is to behave better regardless of who is watching. There’s an evolutionary beauty to the teachings of Yom Kippur, which are the products of thousands of years of cultural changes and evolution.
The Maasai people of Kenya practice osotua: relationships between people that operate based on need. When someone forms an osotua relationship with another, they enter into an unwritten contract to help their partner in times of need. And hunter-gatherer groups, which can represent the circumstances our species evolved in, have many similar examples.
Cultural evolution helps to explain the existence and complexity of these systems. Cultural changes are far faster than biological evolution, allowing intelligent species like humans to develop behavioral adaptations for managing complex social environments. Osotua, or any other practice that helps to maintain good treatment of others in society, is the result of tens of thousands of years of cultural trial and error. The customs passed down over time are those that help us to develop as cultural groups.
The study of those changes has helped us to understand how we successfully spread around the world as cooperative groups. Biological evolution has helped humans be more cooperative, but cultural changes have accelerated this process.
Cultural evolution helps us to overcome our selfish natures. Try to understand rules before you ignore them — and next time you find a fiver on the ground, you might think about the awkward situation your discovery represents.
61．What made the parents feel a bit awkward
A．The difficulty sharing the money.
B．The difficulty finding the owner of the money.
C．The thought of putting the money on the bench.
D．The thought of keeping the money for themselves.
62．Why is “Yom Kippur” talked about in the text
A．To highlight a fact. B．To draw a conclusion.
C．To make a comparison. D．To support an argument.
63．How is biological evolution different from cultural evolution
A．It evolves much slower. B．It takes much less time.
C．It is a more complex process. D．It makes humans more cooperative.
64．What does the author intend to explain in the text
A．How cultural evolution takes place. B．Why people sometimes behave selfishly.
C．Why kindness exists in a competitive world. D．How kindness spreads throughout the world.
（23-24高三上·北京石景山·期末）A Swiss radio station recently carried out a social experiment on air, testing robot-created voices and content. The 13-hour experiment took place at the French-language station Couleur 3. During the period, listeners heard the cloned voices of five human presenters. The station’s programming also included music created by artificial intelligence (AI) methods. The programming informed listeners about the experiment every 20 minutes.
“AI is taking your favorite radio by storm,” a voice said. “Our voice clones and AI are here to unsettle, surprise and shake you. And for that matter, this text was also written by a robot.”
Recent AI developments have led to the creation of a series of tools that permit robots to lead different human activities. These tools belong to a group of systems known as “generative AI”. The tools use machine learning methods to train AI systems on huge amounts of data to produce human-quality results. One of the most highly publicized generative AI tools is called ChatGPT. It received wide attention by demonstrating the ability to quickly produce written answers to questions at a level and quality similar to humans. However, the development of “generative AI” systems has led to some criticism of the technology. Critics have warned that such systems, if used incorrectly, could cause economic, cultural and social harms.
The station said in a statement it received hundreds of messages on the day of the experiment, with some supporting and others opposing. One person complained of unfunny jokes. Another listener admitted to not recognizing the programming as an experiment. One critic called the project a waste of time for a station that gets public financing. Many listeners noted, “You can sense these are robots, and there are fewer surprises, less personality.” Some listeners were even more forceful, urging station officials to “give us back our humans!”
The Swiss station’s chief, Antoine Multone, told The Associated Press that Couleur 3 was able to carry out the experiment because it is already known for doing provocative things.
Multone defended the project as a lesson on how to live with AI. “I think if we become ostriches (鸵鸟) ... we put our heads in the sand and say, ‘Mon Dieu, there’s a new technology! We’re all going to die!’ then yeah, we’re going to die because it (AI) is coming, whether we like it or not,” Multone said by phone. “We want to master the technology so we can then put limits on it.” He added that about 90 percent of the listener reactions suggested the experiment was a good idea.
65．What did the social experiment test
A．Audiences’ feedback. B．Robot-created systems.
C．Human presenters’ voices. D．AI-generated programmes.
66．What does the word “provocative” underlined in Paragraph 5 most probably mean
A．Stimulative. B．Conservative. C．Persuasive. D．Instructive.
67．What should we do with AI according to Antoine Multone
A．Limit and prevent its progress. B．Take human elements out of it.
C．Take advantage of it without defence. D．Research and make use of it sensibly.
68．Which would be the best title for the passage
A．Putting AI Voices on Radio B．Creating Generative AI Tools
C．Exploring the Development of AI D．Replacing Announcers with AI
（23-24高三上·江苏常州·期末）The iPhone has become a usability nightmare (噩梦). A new one comes with 38 preinstalled (提前装好的) apps, of which you can delete 27. Once you’ve downloaded your favorite apps, you’re now sitting at 46 or more.
Like many companies, Apple has decided that there’s no need to build an easy-to-use product when it can use artificial intelligence. If you want to find something in their garbage dump of apps and options, you must use Spotlight, Apple’s AI-powered search engine that can find almost everything there.
This “innovation” of artificial intelligence is not the creation of something new but simply companies selling you back basic usability after decades of messy design choices. And these tech firms are charging us more to fix their mistakes and slapping an AI label as a solution.
Alexa and Siri have become replacements for intentional computing. They give commands into voice interfaces (接口) easily but sacrifice “what we can do” to “what Amazon or Apple allows us to do.” We have been trained to keep apps and files, while tech companies have failed to provide any easy way to organize them. They have decided that disorganized chaos is fine as long as they can provide an automated search product to sift (筛查) through the mess, something more tech, even if tech created the problem in the first place.
Artificial intelligence-based user interfaces rob the user of choice and empower tech giants to control their decision-making. When one searches for something in Siri or Alexa, Apple and Amazon control the results. Google already provides vastly different search results based on your location, and has redesigned search itself multiple times to trick users into clicking links that benefit Google in some way.
Depressingly, our future is becoming one where we must choose between asking an artificial intelligence for help, or fighting through an ever-increasing amount of poorly designed menus in the hope we might be able to help ourselves. We, as consumers, should demand more from the companies that have turned our digital lives into trillion-dollar enterprises.
69．Why does the author mention Apple’s problem
A．As the main topic. B．As the model.
C．As an example. D．As a sharp contrast.
70．What can we know about Alexa and Siri
A．They are both Apple’s search products.
B．They help consumers make their own choices.
C．They have bettered the user experience greatly.
D．They work to the benefits of tech giants behind.
71．What’s the author’s attitude towards the technological giants’ AI-solution
A．Uncertain. B．Disapproving. C．Unclear. D．Unconcerned.
72．The author writes this article to ask readers to _____.
A．abandon using artificial intelligence
B．abandon using products from tech giants
C．recognize the nature of AI-based solution
D．recognize the nature of poorly designed apps
（23-24高三上·江苏苏州·期末）AI could make it less necessary to learn foreign languages. That is good news for travelers, bad news for soulful connection.
Travel has long been a motivator for study — unless people start to feel AI tools offer a good-enough service. Some are concerned that apps are turning language acquisition into a dwindling pursuit. Douglas Hofstadter, a writer, has argued that something important will disappear when people talk through machines. He describes giving a hesitant, difficult speech in Mandarin, which required a lot of work but offered a sense of achievement at the end. Who would show off taking a plane to the top of Mount Everest
Others are less worried. Most people do not move abroad or have the kind of sustained contact with a foreign culture that requires them to put in the work to become fluent. Nor do most people learn languages for the purpose of humanizing themselves or training their brains. On their holiday, they just want a beer and pizza.
As AI translation becomes a more popular labour-saving tool, people will divide into two groups. There will be those who want to challenge their minds, put themselves in other cultures or force their thinking into new pathways. This lot will still take on language study, often aided by technology. Others will look at learning a new language with a mix of admiration and confusion, as they might with extreme endurance (忍耐力) sports: “Good for you, if that’s your thing, but a bit painful for my taste.”
But a focus on the learner alone misses the fundamentally social nature of language. It is a bit like analyzing the benefits of close relationships to heart health but overlooking the inner value of those bonds themselves. When you try to ask directions in broken Japanese or make a joke in hesitant German, you are making direct contact with someone. And when you speak a language well enough to tell a story with perfect timing or put subtle (微妙的) shading on an argument, that connection is still deeper.
73．What does the word “dwindling” mean in paragraph 2
A．Growing. B．Lasting. C．Declining. D．Challenging.
74．What is the underlined part “taking a helicopter to the top of Mount Everest” compared to
A．Using AI tools to do the translation.
B．Doing the work that gives you satisfaction.
C．Making effort to learn a new language.
D．Studying a language aided by technology.
75．Which of the following will the “Others” in paragraph 4 agree with
A．People should stretch their minds in life.
B．AI translation tools offer a good service.
C．Extreme endurance sports are worth trying.
D．Language learning builds deep connection.
76．What can we learn from the last paragraph
A．Language learning benefits learners alone.
B．Language learning is of value to human health.
C．We should reflect on language learning methods.
D．We should adopt a new angle on language learning.
（22-23高二下·广东深圳·期末）In the days before the Internet, critical thinking was the most important skill of informed citizens. But in the digital age, according to Anastasia Kozyreva, a psychologist at the Max Planck Institute of Human Development, and her colleagues, an even more important skill is critical ignoring.
As the researchers point out, we live in an attention economy where content producers on the Internet compete for our attention. They attract us with a lot of emotional and eye-catching stories while providing little useful information, so they can expose us to profit-generating advertisements. Therefore,we are no longer customers but products, and each link we click is a sale of our time and attention. Toprotect ourselves from this, Kozyreva advocates for learning the skill of critical ignoring, in which readers intentionally control their information environment to reduce exposure to false and low-quality information.
According to Kozyreva, critical ignoring comprises three strategies. The first is to design ourenvironments, which involves the removal of low-quality yet hard-to-resist information from around. Successful dieters need to keep unhealthy food out of their homes. Likewise, we need to set up a digital environment where attention-grabbing items are kept out of sight. As with dieting, if one tries to bank onwillpower not to click eye-catching “news”, he’ll surely fail. So, it’s better to just keep them out of sightto begin with.

Is comprehension the same whether a person reads a text onscreen or on paper And are listening to and viewing content as effective as reading the written word when covering the same material The answers to both questions are often “no.” The reasons relate to a variety of factors, including reduced concentration, an entertainment mindset (心态) and a tendency to multitask while consuming digital content.
When reading texts of several hundred words or more, learning is generally more successful when it’s on paper than onscreen. A large amount of research confirms this finding. The benefits of print reading particularly shine through when experimenters move from posing simple tasks – like identifying the main idea in a reading passage – to ones that require mental abstraction – such as drawing inferences from a text.
The differences between print and digital reading results are partly related to paper’s physical properties. With paper, there is a literal laying on of hands, along with the visual geography of distinct pages. People often link their memory of what they’ve read to how far into the book it was or where it was on the page.
But equally important is the mental aspect. Reading researchers have proposed a theory called “shallowing hypothesis (假说).” According to this theory, people approach digital texts with a mindset suited to social media, which are often not so serious, and devote less mental effort than when they are reading print.
Audio (音频) and video can feel more engaging than text, and so university teachers increasingly turn to these technologies – say, assigning an online talk instead of an article by the same person. However, psychologists have demonstrated that when adults read news stories, they remember more of the content than if they listen to or view identical pieces.
Digital texts, audio and video all have educational roles, especially when providing resources not available in print. However, for maximizing learning where mental focus and reflection are called for, educators shouldn’t assume all media are the same, even when they contain identical words.
28. What does the underlined phrase “shine through” in paragraph 2 mean
A. Seem unlikely to last. B. Seem hard to explain.
C. Become ready to use. D. Become easy to notice.
29. What does the shallowing hypothesis assume
A. Readers treat digital texts lightly.
B. Digital texts are simpler to understand.
C. People select digital texts randomly.
D. Digital texts are suitable for social media.
30. Why are audio and video increasingly used by university teachers
A. They can hold students’ attention.
B. They are more convenient to prepare.
C. They help develop advanced skills.
D. They are more informative than text.
31. What does the author imply in the last paragraph
A. Students should apply multiple learning techniques.
B. Teachers should produce their own teaching material.
C. Print texts cannot be entirely replaced in education.
D. Education outside the classroom cannot be ignored.
【答案】28. D 29. A 30. A 31. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是议论文。主要讨论了纸质阅读与数字阅读、音频和视频学习方式的差异和效果。
28.词句猜测题。根据前文“When reading texts of several hundred words or more, learning is generally more successful when it’s on paper than onscreen. A large amount of research confirms this finding.(当阅读几百字或更多的文本时，在纸上学习通常比在屏幕上学习更成功。大量的研究证实了这一发现)”可知，在纸上学习更有成效，以及后文“when experimenters move from posing simple tasks — like identifying the main idea in a reading passage — to ones that require mental abstraction — such as drawing inferences from a text.(当实验人员从提出简单的任务(如识别阅读文章的主旨)转移到需要思维抽象的任务(如从文本中推断)时)”推知，此处应是表达“当实验者从简单的任务转向需要精神抽象的任务时，纸质阅读的益处就变得显而易见”之意，所以shine through应是“显而易见”之意，和D项意思相近。故选D项。
29.推理判断题。根据第四段“But equally important is the mental aspect. Reading researchers have proposed a theory called “shallowing hypothesis (假说)”. According to this theory, people approach digital texts with a mindset suited to social media, which are often not so serious, and devote less mental effort than when they are reading print.(但同样重要的是精神层面。阅读研究人员提出了一个名为“shallowing hypothesis”的理论。根据这一理论，人们以适合社交媒体的心态接触数字文本，这些文本通常不那么严肃，与阅读印刷品时相比，投入的精神努力也更少)”可知，shallowing hypothesis假设读者在阅读数字文本时会持有一种轻松的心态，不会像阅读纸质书籍那样投入太多的心理努力。故选A项。
30.细节理解题。根据第五段“Audio (音频) and video can feel more engaging than text, and so university teachers increasingly turn to these technologies — say, assigning an online talk instead of an article by the same person.(音频和视频可能比文本更具吸引力，因此大学教师越来越多地转向这些技术，例如分配在线讲座而不是同一作者的文章)”可知，音频和视频比文本更能吸引学生的注意力，所以大学教师越来越多地使用这些技术。故选A项。
31.推理判断题。根据最后一段“Digital texts, audio and video all have educational roles, especially when providing resources not available in print. However, for maximizing learning where mental focus and reflection are called for, educators shouldn’t assume all media are the same, even when they contain identical words.(数字文本、音频和视频都具有教育作用，尤其是在提供印刷品中无法获得的资源时。然而，为了在需要精神集中和反思的情况下最大限度地学习，教育工作者不应假定所有媒体都是相同的，即使它们包含相同的单词)”可知，尽管数字文本、音频和视频在教育中有一定作用，但当需要精神集中和反思以最大化学习时，教育者不应假定所有媒体都是相同的，即使它们包含相同的单词。这表明作者认为纸质文本在教育中的作用仍然不可替代，因此暗示纸质文本在教育中的重要性。故选C项。
02-2023全国乙卷
If you want to tell the history of the whole world, a history that does not privilege one part of humanity, you cannot do it through texts alone, because only some of the world has ever had texts, while most of the world, for most of the time, has not. Writing is one of humanity’s later achievements, and until fairly recently even many literate (有文字的) societies recorded their concerns not only in writing but in things.
Ideally a history would bring together texts and objects, and some chapters of this book are able to do just that, but in many cases we simply can’t. The clearest example of this between literate and non-literate history is perhaps the first conflict, at Botany Bay, between Captain Cook’s voyage and the Australian Aboriginals. From the English side, we have scientific reports and the captain’s record of that terrible day. From the Australian side, we have only a wooden shield (盾) dropped by a man in flight after his first experience of gunshot. If we want to reconstruct what was actually going on that day, the shield must be questioned and interpreted as deeply and strictly as the written reports.
In addition to the problem of miscomprehension from both sides, there are victories accidentally or deliberately twisted, especially when only the victors know how to write. Those who are on the losing side often have only their things to tell their stories. The Caribbean Taino, the Australian Aboriginals, the African people of Benin and the Incas, all of whom appear in this book, can speak to us now of their past achievements most powerfully through the objects they made: a history told through things gives them back a voice. When we consider contact (联系) between literate and non-literate societies such as these, all our first-hand accounts are necessarily twisted, only one half of a dialogue. If we are to find the other half of that conversation, we have to read not just the texts, but the objects.
32. What is the first paragraph mainly about
A. How past events should be presented. B. What humanity is concerned about.
C. Whether facts speak louder than words. D. Why written language is reliable.
33. What does the author indicate by mentioning Captain Cook in paragraph 2
A. His report was scientific. B. He represented the local people.
C. He ruled over Botany Bay. D. His record was one-sided.
34. What does the underlined word “conversation” in paragraph 3 refer to
A. Problem. B. History. C. Voice.D. Society.
35. Which of the following books is the text most likely selected from
A. How Maps Tell Stories of the World B. A Short History of Australia
C. A History of the World in 100 Objects D. How Art Works Tell Stories
【答案】32. A 33. D 34. B 35. C
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。本文讨论了仅仅依靠书面文本来讲述世界历史的局限性，并强调了将物品纳入历史叙事以更好地理解无文字社会的重要性。
32.主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“If you want to tell the history of the whole world, a history that does not privilege one part of humanity, you cannot do it through texts alone, because only some of the world has ever had texts, while most of the world, for most of the time, has not. Writing is one of humanity’s later achievements, and until fairly recently even many literate (有文字的) societies recorded their concerns not only in writing but in things. (如果你想讲述整个世界的历史，一段不以人类某一部分为特权的历史，你不能仅仅通过文本来讲述，因为世界上只有一部分人曾经有过文本，而世界上大多数人，在大多数时间里，都没有。写作是人类较晚的成就之一，直到最近，甚至许多有文字的社会也不仅用文字，而且用物件来记录他们所关心的事情。)”可推知，第一段主要讲述的是历史应该如何呈现给我们。故选A。
33.推理判断题。根据文章第二段首句“Ideally a history would bring together texts and objects, and some chapters of this book are able to do just that, but in many cases we simply can’t. (理想情况下，历史应该将文本和物品结合在一起，本书的某些章节能够做到这一点，但在许多情况下，我们根本做不到。)”可推断，作者认为历史应该是文本和物品相结合的产物，但是很多情况下，我们做不到。再根据所举例子的下文“From the English side, we have scientific reports and the captain’s record of that terrible day. From the Australian side, we have only a wooden shield (盾) dropped by a man in flight after his first experience of gunshot. (在英国方面，我们有科学报告和船长对那可怕的一天的记录。从澳大利亚方面来看，我们只有一个木制盾牌，这是一名男子在第一次经历枪击后在飞行中扔下的。)”可知，作者举这个例子是为了说明船长的记录是片面的，只从自己的角度描述了问题。故选D。
34.词句猜测题。根据划线单词上文“The Caribbean Taino, the Australian Aboriginals, the African people of Benin and the Incas, all of whom appear in this book, can speak to us now of their past achievements most powerfully through the objects they made: a history told through things gives them back a voice. When we consider contact (联系) between literate and non-literate societies such as these, all our first-hand accounts are necessarily twisted, only one half of a dialogue. (加勒比海的泰诺人、澳大利亚的土著人、贝宁的非洲人以及印加人，所有这些人都出现在这本书中，他们现在都可以通过他们制造的物品向我们讲述他们过去最强大的成就：通过物品讲述的历史给了他们一个声音。当我们考虑诸如此类的有文化社会和无文化社会之间的接触时，我们所有的第一手资料都必然是扭曲的，只有对话的一半。)”结合划线句“If we are to find the other half of that conversation, we have to read not just the texts, but the objects. (如果我们要找到对话的另一半，我们不仅要读文本，还要读物体。)”可知，我们对过去历史的了解，只是书写历史的人所想要让我们了解的历史，如果我们想要了解历史的另一半，我们不仅仅要读文本也要读对象。所以conversation指的是“历史”。故选B。
35.推理判断题。根据文章第一段“If you want to tell the history of the whole world, a history that does not privilege one part of humanity, you cannot do it through texts alone, because only some of the world has ever had texts, while most of the world, for most of the time, has not.(如果你想讲述整个世界的历史，一段不以人类某一部分为特权的历史，你不能仅仅通过文本来讲述，因为世界上只有一部分人的历史曾经被文字记录过，而世界上大多数人，在大多数时间里，都没有。)”结合最后一段的“ If we are to find the other half of that conversation, we have to read not just the texts, but the objects. (如果我们要找到对话的另一半，我们不仅要读文本，还要读物体。)”可知，本文讲述仅仅依靠书面文本来讲述世界历史有局限性，想要更好的了解历史就要将文本和物品结合在一起。从而推断文章最有可能选自《100件物品中的世界史》。故选C。
03-2024全国甲卷
“I didn’t like the ending,” I said to my favorite college professor. It was my junior year of undergraduate, and I was doing an independent study on Victorian literature. I had just finished reading The Mill on the Floss by George Eliot, and I was heartbroken with the ending. Prof. Gracie, with all his patience, asked me to think about it beyond whether I liked it or not. He suggested I think about the difference between endings that I wanted for the characters and endings that were right for the characters, endings that satisfied the story even if they didn’t have a traditionally positive outcome. Of course, I would have preferred a different ending for Tom and Maggie Tulliver, but the ending they got did make the most sense for them.
This was an aha moment for me, and I never thought about endings the same way again. From then on, if I wanted to read an ending guaranteed to be happy, I’d pick up a love romance. If I wanted an ending I couldn’t guess, I’d pick up a mystery (悬疑小说). One where I kind of knew what was going to happen, historical fiction. Choosing what to read became easier.
But writing the end—that’s hard. It’s hard for writers because endings carry so much weight with readers. You have to balance creating an ending that's unpredictable, but doesn’t seem to come from nowhere, one that fits what’s right for the characters.
That’s why this issue (期) of Writer’s Digest aims to help you figure out how to write the best ending for whatever kind of writing you’re doing. If it’s short stories, Peter Mountford breaks down six techniques you can try to see which one helps you stick the landing. Elizabeth Sims analyzes the final chapters of five great novels to see what key points they include and how you can adapt them for your work.
This issue won’t tell you what your ending should be—that’s up to you and the story you’re telling—bu it might provide what you need to get there.
32. Why did the author go to Prof. Gracie
A. To discuss a novel. B. To submit a book report.
C. To argue for a writer. D. To ask for a reading list.
33. What did the author realize after seeing Gracie
A. Writing is a matter of personal preferences.
B. Readers are often carried away by character.
C. Each type of literature has its unique end.
D. A story which begins well will end well.
34. What is expected of a good ending
A It satisfies readers’ taste. B. It fits with the story development.
C. It is usually positive. D. It is open for imagination.
35. Why does the author mention Peter Mountford and Elizabeth Sims
A. To give examples of great novelists. B. To stress the theme of this issue.
C. To encourage writing for the magazine. D. To recommend their new books.
【答案】32. A 33. C 34. B 35. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章首先通过作者与教授关于小说结局的讨论引发了对结局的思考，接着阐述了不同类型的文学作品结局的特点，最后提出了写作好的结局的重要性并介绍了《Writer’s Digest》杂志如何帮助作家写出更好的结尾。
32.细节理解题。根据第一段““I didn’t like the ending,” I said to my favorite college professor. It was my junior year of undergraduate, and I was doing an independent study on Victorian literature. I had just finished reading The Mill on the Floss by George Eliot, and I was heartbroken with the ending. Prof. Gracie, with all his patience, asked me to think about it beyond whether I liked it or not.( “我不喜欢这个结局，”我对我最喜欢的大学教授说。那是我大三的时候，我正在做一项关于维多利亚文学的独立研究。我刚刚读完乔治 艾略特的《弗洛斯河上的磨坊》，读到结尾我很伤心。格雷西教授耐心地让我考虑一下，不要只看我喜不喜欢)”可知，作者去找格雷西教授是为了讨论小说。故选A项。
33.推理判断题。根据第二段“This was an aha moment for me, and I never thought about endings the same way again. From then on, if I wanted to read an ending guaranteed to be happy, I’d pick up a love romance. If I wanted an ending I couldn’t guess, I’d pick up a mystery (悬疑小说). One where I kind of knew what was going to happen, historical fiction. Choosing what to read became easier.( 这对我来说是一个顿悟的时刻，我再也没有想过同样的结局。从那时起，如果我想读一个保证幸福的结局，我就会选一部爱情小说。如果我想要一个我猜不到的结局，我会选一本神秘小说。一种是我知道会发生什么，历史小说。选择读什么变得更容易了)”可知，见过格雷西教授后，作者意识到了每种类型的文学都有其独特的结局。故选C项。
34.推理判断题。根据第三段“But writing the end—that’s hard. It’s hard for writers because endings carry so much weight with readers. You have to balance creating an ending that’s unpredictable, but doesn’t seem to come from nowhere, one that fits what’s right for the characters.(但是写出结局——那很难。对作家来说很难，因为结局对读者来说意义重大。你必须平衡创造一个不可预测的结局，但这个结局又不能显得凭空而来，要适合角色的设定)”可知，人们对一个好结局的期望是结局又不能显得凭空而来，要适合角色的设定，也就是符合故事的发展。故选B项。
35.推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“That’s why this issue (期) of Writer’s Digest aims to help you figure out how to write the best ending for whatever kind of writing you’re doing. If it’s short stories, Peter Mountford breaks down six techniques you can try to see which one helps you stick the landing.

（23-24高二下·浙江温州·期末）“ChatGPT is a computer program that can understand and respond to text like a person. It’s like havinga conversation with a very smart robot,” says ChatGPT, an artificial intelligence text generator.
In November of 2022, the computer program ChatGPT generated significant public interest across the globe for its broad applications and commercial value. This AI model demonstrated its ability to perform a variety of tasks, from generating book summaries, recommendations, and personal research assistance, to drafting college SOPs, essays, and emails. According to Ehsan Hoque, Associate Professor of Computer Science at UR, while the concepts used to build ChatGPT are not entirely new, combining them with this AI model marks a significant achievement in the field of AI engineering.
With that being said, the system has also generated contention over its possible violation of academic honesty. The use of ChatGPT for homework assignments is a growing concern for professors across the globe. The University, on the other hand, has not addressed or made a statement on this matter.
There are potential academic violations for homework and exams. One such case is Professor of Political Science and Business David Primo. He entered one of his previous test questions into ChatGPT, and ChatGPT got it exactly correct. Despite concerns, Primo understands that the issue of academic honesty is a concern that has existed and will exist forever. He talks about this as well as the many other negative uses of the internet, saying “The internet makes it easy to spread hateful messages and pirate music, but do you want to go back to a time where you couldn’t bank online, or listen to music online ”
Primo also pictures this technological advancement being integrated into classes and assessments in the future. “Universities should move slowly here and let faculty members experiment with various approaches to AI and adapt to a world of AI,” said Primo.

（23-24高二下·江苏·期末）ChatGPT, a powerful AI chatbot tool, has swept the world in the past months. While it has been dominating social media with its frighteningly good essays, ChatGPT has also caused both excitement and worries in education.
According to a US survey of more than 1,000 students, over 89 percent of the respondents had used ChatGPT to help with a homework assignment. Some students even got high scores thanks to papers written by ChatGPT.
Some universities and schools have banned the use of ChatGPT, such as public schools in New York City, CNN reported. The move comes along with growing concerns that the tool could make it easier for students to cheat on assignments and be used to spread inaccurate information.
“While the tool may be able to provide quick and easy answers to questions, it does not build critical-thinking and problem-solving skills, which are essential for academic and lifelong success,” Jenna Lyle, the vice press secretary of the New York City Department of Education, said in a statement.
Apart from strict bans, teachers are redesigning their courses in an attempt to block the use of ChatGPT. Some college professors in the US are now including more oral exams and handwritten papers instead of typed ones, The New York Times reported.
However, not all educators are saying “no” to ChatGPT. Some Canadian universities are not planning on banning the tool. Instead, they are drafting policies on its proper usage, for both students and lecturers.
Bhaskar Vira, vice-president for education at University of Cambridge in the UK, said that bans on AI software like ChatGPT are not sensible (合理的). “I’m of the opinion that we have to recognize that AI is a tool people will use but then adapt our learning, teaching and examination processes so that we can continue to have integrity (诚实) while recognizing the use of the tool,” he told Varsity, the school newspaper of the university.
Vira’s opinion on ChatGPT is shared by Petervan der Putten, assistant professor at Leiden University in the Netherlands. “It’s there, just how like Google is there. You can write it into your policies for stopping cheating but it’s a reality that the tool exists,” he told Sky News.
5．According to the passage, what can ChatGPT help students do
A．Enrich their school life. B．Hand in better papers.
C．Improve their writing skills. D．Spread correct information.
6．What are the professors in US doing to cope with ChatGPT
A．Making policies to ban the use of the tool.
B．Requiring students to write papers by hand.
C．Making laws to recognize the use of the tool.
D．Preventing students from spreading inaccurate information.
7．Which of the following may Vira agree to about using ChatGPT
A．Grasp all, lose all. B．Practice makes perfect.
C．No pains, no gains. D．Every coin has two sides.
8．Which can be a suitable title for the text
A．ChatGPT: An answer giver B．ChatGPT: A perfect tool
C．ChatGPT: A homework designer D．ChatGPT: A cheat helper
【答案】5．B 6．B 7．D 8．B
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要介绍了人工智能聊天机器人ChatGPT在教育界掀起了一场风暴以及教育界是如何应对的。
5．细节理解题。根据第二段中“According to a US survey of more than 1,000 students, over 89 percent of the respondents had used ChatGPT to help with a homework assignment. Some students even got high scores thanks to papers written by ChatGPT.(美国一项针对1000多名学生的调查显示，超过89%的受访者曾使用ChatGPT来帮助完成家庭作业。一些学生甚至因为ChatGPT写的论文而获得了高分。)”可知，ChatGPT可以帮助学生们提交更好的论文，故选B。
6．细节理解题。根据第五段中“Some college professors in the US are now including more oral exams and handwritten papers instead of typed ones, The New York Times reported.(据《纽约时报》报道，美国一些大学教授现在增加了口试和手写试卷，而不是打字试卷。)”可知，为了解决ChatGPT带来的影响，美国一些大学教授现在增加了口试和手写试卷，故选B。
7．推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中““I’m of the opinion that we have to recognize that AI is a tool people will use but then adapt our learning, teaching and examination processes so that we can continue to have integrity (诚实) while recognizing the use of the tool,” he told Varsity, the school newspaper of the university.(“我的观点是，我们必须认识到人工智能是一种人们会使用的工具，但随后调整我们的学习、教学和考试过程，这样我们才能在认识到这种工具的使用的同时保持诚信，”他在接受该校校报《Varsity》采访时表示。)”可知，Vira的观点是，虽然ChatGPT导致了在大学教育中出现了如学生作弊的问题，但他认为必须要认识到人工智能是一种人们会使用的工具，在认识到这种工具的使用的同时保持诚信，调整我们的学习、教学和考试过程。由此推断他认为凡是都有两面性，故选D。
8．主旨大意题。根据第一段“ChatGPT, a powerful AI chatbot tool, has swept the world in the past months. While it has been dominating social media with its frighteningly good essays, ChatGPT has also caused both excitement and worries in education.(ChatGPT，一个强大的人工智能聊天机器人工具，在过去的几个月里席卷了全球。虽然ChatGPT凭借其出色的论文在社交媒体上占据了主导地位，但它也在教育领域引发了兴奋和担忧。)”以及通读全文可知，文章就人工智能聊天机器人ChatGPT在教育界掀起了一场风暴以及教育界是如何应对的而展开的，它对教育界带来的影响有利有弊，故B选项“ChatGPT: A perfect tool (ChatGPT：一个完美的工具？)”概括文章主题，故选B。
（23-24高二上·江苏南通·期末）How often in your busy life when faced with an issue or a problem do you consider subtraction (减法)
Every day, with big and small challenges, we ignore a basic way to make things better. We are great at adding to our “to dos”, but we don’t consider “stop-doings”. We collect new-and-improved ideas, but don’t delete the outdated ones.
Do your resolutions more often start with “I should do more of…” than with “I should do less of…” Do you add new rules in your household or workplace more often than you take rules away In our striving to improve our lives, our work and our society, we overwhelmingly add.
Leidy Klotz’s Lego bridge test, with two support towers of differing heights, found that almost everyone added a Lego brick to the shorter tower, rather than removing a brick from the longer tower. The valid subtraction solution produced a stronger outcome.
Why do we ignore the option to subtract from what is already there Why do we fail to use subtraction as a way to change things
Firstly, behavioural science suggests that our brains are wired to ignore subtraction. Initial studies show that our mental shortcuts have a preference for adding when solving problem. We are tricked by our mindset.
Further, we have a tendency to think addition or subtraction; however, they can be complementary (互补的) ways to make changes.
So we ignore subtraction because it is often harder to think of. Moreover, even when we do manage to think of it, subtracting can be harder to perform.
In chemistry, valency (化合价) refers to an elemental force that is not necessarily visible but helps explain the elements’ behaviour. Psychological valency is the inner attractiveness or strong dislike of something. There is a negative valency around subtracting. Even the word subtraction has a negative valency.
Subtraction is the act of getting to less but it is not the same as doing less. Getting to less often means doing, or at least thinking, more. In your pursuit of success and happiness I encourage you to overcome the tendency to ignore subtraction. Subtracting can be delightful!
9．What do people usually do when faced with problems in life
A．Adopt subtraction. B．Stop doing things.
C．Add new rules. D．Abandon outdated ideas.
10．How did the author prove his viewpoint
A．By comparing examples. B．By conducting a survey.
C．By analyzing statistics. D．By citing a typical test.
11．What causes people to ignore the option of subtraction
A．Initial fixed mindset. B．Resistance to change.
C．Flexible mental desire. D．Expectation for success.
12．What does the author intend to do in the last paragraph
A．State possible reasons. B．Offer valuable advice.
C．Give some warnings. D．Provide useful proof.
【答案】9．C 10．D 11．A 12．B
【导语】这是一篇议论文。主要介绍了在忙碌的生活中，当你面对一个问题时，习惯性做加法，作者建议克服忽视减法的倾向，做减法让人愉快。
9．细节理解题。文章第二段讲到“We are great at adding to our “to dos”, but we don’t consider “stop-doings”. (我们很擅长增加我们的“待办事项”，但我们不考虑“停止行动”。)”可知，当人们面对生活中的问题时，通常会添加新规则。故选C。
10．推理判断题。文章第四段讲到“Leidy Klotz’s Lego bridge test, with two support towers of differing heights, found that almost everyone added a Lego brick to the shorter tower, rather than removing a brick from the longer tower. (Leidy Klotz的乐高大桥测试有两个不同高度的支撑塔，发现几乎每个人都在较短的塔上添加了一块乐高积木，而不是从较长的塔上取下一块积木。)”可知，作者是通过引用一个典型的测试证明他的观点的。故选D。
11．细节理解题。文章第六段讲到“Initial studies show that our mental shortcuts have a preference for adding when solving problem. (最初的研究表明，在解决问题时，我们的思维捷径更倾向于加法。)”可知，最初的固定心态导致人们忽略了减法的选项。故选A。
12．推理判断题。文章最后一段讲到“Getting to less often means doing, or at least thinking, more. In your pursuit of success and happiness I encourage you to overcome the tendency to ignore subtraction. Subtracting can be delightful! (减少时间意味着做得更多，或者至少想得更多。在你追求成功和幸福的过程中，我鼓励你克服忽视减法的倾向。减法可以令人愉快！)”可知，作者在最后一段是提供有价值的建议。故选B。
（23-24高二上·山东德州·期末）The house had been cleaned and decorated elegantly. The air smelt fresh. Little labels on all we saw around the house displayed important details: date of purchase and the current selling price. We were at a garage sale. There was no talking or bargaining. Buyers could pick up at the listed price.
All efforts that release cash that is locked into stuff touch me deeply. If they break conventional ideas, I will like them even more. It is my view that people love to follow suit and end up with emotions they ought to feel, rather than being true to themselves. To say that one does not care for one’s grandmother’s necklace is considered rude, so one would simply keep it in the locker and pass it on to the next generation.
No longer so, I am guessing.
It’s not always about money, but perhaps about considering one’s choices. My argument always is to use stuff, if you like it so much. Wear those pieces of jewellery; use those pieces of furnitures; take home those piles of old-time bedsheets. But if none of them fit into your current home, allow someone else to take them home. Turn those properties over instead of leaving them unused.
Hoarding (囤积) is not a virtue. It is a waste of the money that is locked into the property you are hoarding. I may use it sometime in the future, say some. Give that a time frame. If you are holding something you haven’t used even once in five years, ask yourself if someone else may need it. Don’t sell if you don’t care for money; but do give it away.
All else needs to earn their place for their value and usefulness for you. Celebrate the liberation from hoarding and let there be light!
13．What do people often do at the garage sale
A．Purchase a garage. B．Label their belongings.
C．Talk about decoration. D．Trade their unused stuff.
14．Why does the author mention “necklace” in paragraph 2
A．To call for respect towards the elderly.
B．To advocate holding onto the family tradition.
C．To show the financial condition of an average family.
D．To prove people tend to follow suit against their wills.
15．What does the author believe according to paragraph 4
A．It is a good idea to save money.
B．A good taste counts in purchase.
C．Unused items deserve a new owner.
D．The outdated should be thrown away.
16．What is the author’s purpose of writing the passage
A．To call on people to get rid of hoarding.
B．To show his worry about wasting resources.
C．To draw attention to conserving the traditions.
D．To inspire people to spend more on meaningful things.
【答案】13．D 14．D 15．C 16．A
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讨论了人们应该根据自己的实际需求和价值观来对待物品，而不是过度囤积物品，以及应该根据个人喜好和需求来选择物品。
13．推理判断题。根据第一段“Little labels on all we saw around the house displayed important details: date of purchase and the current selling price. We were at a garage sale. There was no talking or bargaining. Buyers could pick up at the listed price.(我们在房子周围看到的所有东西上的小标签都显示了重要的细节：购买日期和当前的售价。我们在车库旧货拍卖会上。没有谈话，也没有讨价还价。买家可以按挂牌价格提货。)”可知，人们在车库大甩卖时经常交易他们不用的东西。故选D。
14．推理判断题。根据文章第二段“It is my view that people love to follow suit and end up with emotions they ought to feel, rather than being true to themselves. To say that one does not care for one’s grandmother’s necklace is considered rude, so one would simply keep it in the locker and pass it on to the next generation.(我的观点是，人们喜欢随大流，最终产生他们应该感受到的情绪，而不是真实的自己。说自己不喜欢祖母的项链被认为是无礼的，所以你会把它放在储物柜里，传给下一代。)”可知，作者在第2段提到“项链”是为了证明人们往往会违背自己的意愿跟风。故选D。
15．推理判断题。根据第四段“My argument always is to use stuff, if you like it so much. Wear those pieces of jewellery; use those pieces of furnitures; take home those piles of old-time bedsheets.(我的观点是，只要你喜欢，就可以使用。戴上那些首饰；使用那些家具;把那些成堆的旧床单带回家。)”和“Turn those properties over instead of leaving them unused.(把这些属性翻转过来，而不是让它们闲置。)”可知，根据第4段，作者认为不用的东西应该有个新主人。故选C。
16．推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“All else needs to earn their place for their value and usefulness for you. Celebrate the liberation from hoarding and let there be light!(所有其他的东西都需要为它们的价值和有用性赢得一席之地。庆祝从囤积中解放出来，让光明出现吧！)”以及全文内容可知，作者写这篇文章的目的是呼吁人们摆脱囤积。故选A。
（23-24高二上·河南洛阳·期末）Will your job be done by a robot in the future Bank of England economist s predict that almost half of all UK jobs are under threat of automation. But could even the admired profession of teaching soon have to compete against powerful electronic educators
At first glance, teaching might seem impossible to be replaced by robots. Teachers use a range of soft skills that machines find hard to copy exactly. They judge pupils’ needs and tailor feedback accordingly. They adapt materials to make them more engaging and effective. And they provide kind care: looking out for students who drop behind or disturb the class.
Despite that, some believe the future of education will be technological. Futurist Thomas Frey, from Business Insider magazine, predicts that “by 2030 the largest company on the internet is going to be an education-based company that we haven’t heard of yet.”
He thinks that ‘bots’— online robot teachers will make education so efficient that students will be able to compress (压缩) an entire undergraduate degree into six months of learning. A bot learns what your “idiosyncrasies”“interests” and “reference points” are, “and it figures out how to teach you in a faster and faster way over time,” according to Frey.
Whether or not such incredible speeds will be reached over the last decade, there has been a huge increase in online learning panies such as Udemy and Khan Academy produce courses that allow millions to learn at home for free at their own pace. But there are limitations. Without the face-to-face inspiration of a classroom environment, the majority of students fail to complete online courses. How to keep motivation to learn is one more skill that online teachers will need to master.
Indeed, Frey admits there is some way to go: “Nobody has quite cracked the code for the future of education.” What do teachers themselves think about this Professor Donald Clark from Derby University in the UK thinks that we should accept change, even though people will lose their jobs.
17．What’s the second paragraph mainly about
A．Teaching by robots can be replaced. B．The advantages of face-to-face teaching.
C．Human teachers will be replaced by robots. D．The potential of the electronic educators.
18．What does the underlined word “idiosyncrasies” in Paragraph 4 most probably mean
A．Personalities. B．Senses. C．Nationalities. D．Families.
19．Why are Udemy and Khan Academy mentioned
A．To tell how online learning is progressing. B．To show the significance of online learning.
C．To explain people how online learning works. D．To suggest the shortcomings of online learning.
20．What might be talked about following the last paragraph
A．How robots will change in the future. B．How artificial intelligence will destroy jobs.
C．How educators will meet the future challenge. D．How electronic educators will lose their jobs.
【答案】17．B 18．A 19．A 20．C
【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章主要说明了教学似乎不可能被机器人取代，尽管如此，一些人认为未来的教育将是科技的。文章说明了面对面教学的优势以及在线学习的发展情况。
17．主旨大意题。根据第二段“At first glance, teaching might seem impossible to be replaced by robots. Teachers use a range of soft skills that machines find hard to copy exactly. They judge pupils’ needs and tailor feedback accordingly. They adapt materials to make them more engaging and effective. And they provide kind care: looking out for students who drop behind or disturb the class.(乍一看，教学似乎不可能被机器人取代。教师使用的一系列软技能是机器很难完全复制的。他们判断学生的需求，并相应地调整反馈。他们调整材料，使其更吸引人，更有效。他们提供亲切的照顾：注意那些掉队或扰乱课堂的学生)”可知，第二段的主要内容是面对面教学的优势。故选B。
18．词句猜测题。根据划线词后文““interests” and “reference points” are, “and it figures out how to teach you in a faster and faster way over time”可知，此处指机器人会了解你的“兴趣”和“参考点”是什么，然后随着时间的推移，它会想出如何以越来越快的方式教你。由此推知，机器人会全面了解你，以便因材施教，因此划线词idiosyncrasies应该是指你的“个性”。故选A。
19．推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Whether or not such incredible speeds will be reached over the last decade, there has been a huge increase in online learning panies such as Udemy and Khan Academy produce courses that allow millions to learn at home for free at their own pace.(不管在过去的十年里，这种令人难以置信的速度是否会达到，在线学习平台已经有了巨大的增长。Udemy和可汗学院等公司提供的课程让数百万人可以在家按照自己的进度免费学习)”可推知，提到Udemy和可汗学院是为了讲述在线学习的发展情况。故选A。
20．推理判断题。根据最后一段“Indeed, Frey admits there is some way to go: “Nobody has quite cracked the code for the future of education.” What do teachers themselves think about this Professor Donald Clark from Derby University in the UK thinks that we should accept change, even though people will lose their jobs.(事实上，弗雷承认还有一段路要走：“没有人能完全破解未来教育的密码。”老师们自己是怎么想的呢？英国德比大学的唐纳德·克拉克教授认为，我们应该接受改变，即使人们会失去工作)”可推知，在最后一段之后可能会讨论教育工作者将如何应对未来的挑战。故选C。
（23-24高二上·四川德阳·期末）When people wanted to find their way to a place in the past, they used to have to buy a map. They don’t have to do that any more. Now they can either buy a GPS, or go online and find maps for just about anywhere.
Is this an improvement Perhaps, but some people think some of the online companies are going too far, because they have been sending out cars with photographic equipment on their roofs, to photograph every street and house in the country.
One of these cars arrived on a Wednesday morning in the quiet English village of Broughton. The camera was on a metre-high pole on top of the car and could see over walls and into people’s gardens. Some of the villagers came and stood around the car, and asked the driver and photographer to go away. Journalists quickly arrived on the scene, and soon the event was news all over the country.
Of course, the online company in question claims that it is simply collecting information that people on the Internet want. But Broughton residents feel differently. “We used to have privacy in this country. Now companies just come and take photographs of our homes without even asking,” said one resident. “It’s not right. We mustn’t let this happen. We mustn’t lose our right to live privately.”
There is, of course, no law to prevent people from taking photographs of houses, so the residents cannot go to court. But many people are asking the question: OK, it’s legal, but is it right This is a question that won’t go away very quickly.
21．Why did the car with a camera on the car roof come to Broughton
A．To test whether their GPS works in the village.
B．To investigate for a law case for the country.
C．To spy on villagers and their life in Broughton.
D．To collect information for their online maps.
22．What can be inferred about the incident in Broughton
A．The incident drew people’s attention all over the world.
B．The incident made online maps popular among the local residents.
C．The local residents were curious about what these people were doing.
D．The local residents were upset about their privacy not being respected.
23．What can we learn from the last paragraph
A．The law should be changed to protect the residents.
B．The incident will remain a hot topic for people to discuss.
C．The residents accept what the company was doing in their neighborhood.
D．The residents can sue (控告) the company for violating their privacy.
24．What can be the best title of the passage
A．A strange car! B．It’s legal, but is it right
C．Say goodbye to paper maps. D．Privacy gives way to technology.
【答案】21．D 22．D 23．B 24．B

21．推理判断题。根据文章第二段“Perhaps, but some people think some of the online companies are going too far, because they have been sending out cars with photographic equipment on their roofs, to photograph every street and house in the country. (也许吧，但有些人认为一些网络公司做得太过分了，因为他们一直在派出车顶上装有摄影设备的汽车，拍摄这个国家的每一条街道和每一栋房子。)”和文章第四段“Of course, the online company in question claims that it is simply collecting information that people on the Internet want. (当然，有问题的网络公司声称它只是在收集互联网上人们想要的信息。)”可知，车顶装有摄像头的汽车来到布劳顿为他们的在线地图收集信息。故选D。
22．推理判断题。根据文章第四段“But Broughton residents feel differently. “We used to have privacy in this country. Now companies just come and take photographs of our homes without even asking,” said one resident. “It’s not right. We mustn’t let this happen. We mustn’t lose our right to live privately.” (但布劳顿的居民却有不同的感受。“在这个国家，我们曾经有隐私。现在公司甚至不问就来给我们的房子拍照。”一位居民说。“这是不对的。我们不能让这种事发生。我们不能失去私下生活的权利。”)”可推知，当地居民对他们的隐私没有得到尊重感到不安。故选D。
23．推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“This is a question that won’t go away very quickly. (这个问题不会很快消失。)”可知，这一事件仍将是人们讨论的热门话题。故选B。
24．主旨大意题。根据文章最后一段“There is , of course, no law to prevent people from taking photographs of houses, so the villagers cannot go to court. But many people are asking the question: OK, it’s legal, but is it right (当然，没有法律禁止人们给房子拍照，所以居民们不能上法庭。但是很多人都在问的问题：“好的，这是合法的，或者不是？”)”可知，文章主要就一些在线公司为了互联网上一些被人们需要的信息不分地点和场合的收集信息，给当地人们带来了困扰，并对这种行为是否合法展开了讨论。故选B。
（23-24高二上·河南焦作·期末）Imagine you need milk, so you go to the grocery store to pick some up, only to find there are dozens of options. These days, you have to make a decision on not only the percentage of fat you want, but also what source you want your milk to be coming from: cows, soybeans... You have no idea what milk to pick. There are so many choices that you are confused.
This phenomenon is known as the paradox (悖论) of choice and it is becoming a concern in the modern world, where more and more options are becoming easily available to us. While we might believe that being presented with multiple options actually makes it easier to choose one that we are happy with, and thus increases consumer satisfaction, having too many options actually requires more effort to make a decision and can leave us feeling unsatisfied with our choice.
The idea was popularized by American psychologist Barry Schwartz when he published his book, The Paradox of Choice: Why More Is Less. Schwartz, who has long studied the ways in which economics and psychology intersect (交叉), became interested in seeing the way that choices were affecting the happiness of citizens in Western societies. He identified that the range of choices that we have available to us these days is far greater than that people had in the past; however, consumer satisfaction has not increased as much as traditional economics theories might expect.
Schwartz identified that the paradox of choice carries the most consequence for people that are maximizers. Maximizers, unlike satisficers, are concerned with making the best choice instead of simply making a choice that they are happy with. When there are many options available to maximizers, it becomes harder for them to determine which is the best, which can cause them to feel a great deal of regret after they have made a choice.
Instead of believing that freedom of choice is unlimited, Schwartz advocates that the role of psychology and behavioral economics should be to find the kind of limitations on freedom that can lead to the greatest level of happiness within society.
25．What’s the author’s purpose in mentioning buying milk in paragraph 1
A．To lead in the topic.
B．To draw a conclusion.
C．To show that we have more choices when shopping.
D．To indicate that people pay greater attention to health when shopping.
26．What does the paradox of choice suggest
A．More options mean less satisfaction.
B．Consumer satisfaction has greatly increased.
C．People are happy with more choices.
D．Modern people are happier than their ancestors.
27．What can be learned about satisficers
A．They aim for the very best. B．They tend to follow their feelings.
C．They often regret their decisions. D．They have trouble making a decision.
28．What does Schwartz suggest people do
A．Hold on to their beliefs. B．Accept their own behavior.
C．Give up freedom. D．Limit their own choices.
【答案】25．A 26．A 27．B 28．D
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。 文章主要介绍了“选择悖论”这一现象，即过多的选择会让人们感到困惑和不满，从而降低消费者的满意度。文章还介绍了“最大化者”和“满足者”的区别，以及心理学和行为经济学在解决这一问题中的作用。
25．推理判断题。根据第一段的“Imagine you need milk, so you go to the grocery store to pick some up, only to find there are dozens of options. (想象一下，你需要牛奶，所以你去杂货店买了一些，却发现有几十种选择)”以及“You have no idea what milk to pick. There are so many choices that you are confused.(你不知道该选什么牛奶。有太多的选择让你感到困惑)”可知，购物时牛奶品类众多，以至于很难做出决策。是下文“选择的悖论”这一现象的一个案例。由此可推知，文章第一段提到买牛奶就是为了引出文章的话题。故选A。
26．推理判断题。根据第二段的“While we might believe that being presented with multiple options actually makes it easier to choose one that we are happy with, and thus increases consumer satisfaction, having too many options actually requires more effort to make a decision and can leave us feeling unsatisfied with our choice.(虽然我们可能认为，提供多种选择实际上会让我们更容易选择一种我们满意的选择，从而提高消费者满意度，选择太多实际上需要付出更多的努力才能做出决定，这会让我们对自己的选择感到不满意)”可知，选择太多实际上需要付出更多的努力才能做出决定，这会让我们对自己的选择感到不满意。由此可推知，更多的选择意味着更少的满足感。故选A。
27．推理判断题。根据第四段的“Maximizers, unlike satisficers, are concerned with making the best choice instead of simply making a choice that they are happy with. (与满足者不同，最大化者关心的是做出最好的选择，而不是简单地做出他们满意的选择)”可推知，满足者跟随自己的感觉，不纠结于必须做出“最好的”决定。故选B。
28．细节理解题。根据最后一段“Instead of believing that freedom of choice is unlimited, Schwartz advocates that the role of psychology and behavioral economics should be to find the kind of limitations on freedom that can lead to the greatest level of happiness within society.(施瓦茨不认为选择的自由是无限的，而是主张心理学和行为经济学的作用应该是找到对自由的限制，从而在社会中获得最大程度的幸福)”可知，施瓦茨建议人们限制自己的选择。故选D。
（23-24高二上·湖南岳阳·期末）Technology is more than an abstract concept associated with advanced tools and systems. It also shapes the way people behave, grow and develop, both within their own lives and in their relationships with others. While technology has developed over thousands of years, the last century has seen an explosion in technology that has influenced fundamental changes in how humans see the world and interact with others. Specifically, the Internet and mobile devices have completely changed the way people interact with each other. There has been a debate going on whether technology is benefiting human communication or ruining (破坏) it.
Undoubtedly, technology is helping people build newer and necessary communication skills. In business, office employees and managers use technology to send emails to one another, which is considered a communication skill. On social media, just share a few of your images and people start communicating on and about your images according to their viewpoint. With the outbreak of COVID-19, in order to work on the projects, the students use their phones to reach their teachers and classmates.
However, technology is sometimes considered to disconnect people from others around them. With cell phones, most people think that it’s easier and more convenient to text instead of meeting in person. Lucas Lengacher, an undergraduate from Huntington University, claims in his article that at least 42.91% people respond to messages immediately yet only 2.83% people don’t check their phones in the morning. In his research he found that almost 60 percent of people felt disconnected from others around when they were on their phones.
29．Which has basically influenced human interaction according to the passage
A．People’s value. B．Social systems.
C．Mobile devices. D．Communication skills.
30．What does the second paragraph mainly talk about
A．The technology is benefiting human communication.
B．The technology is ruining human communication.
C．People began to communicate with e-mails.
D．The outbreak of COVID-19 helps new technology develop.
31．What does Lucas’s research find
A．Phones are getting more and more popular.
B．Phones disconnect us when we are together.
C．People are eager for personal communication.
D．People communicate less because of physical distance.
32．What is the author’s attitude to technology
A．Disappointed. B．Positive. C．Doubtful D．Objective
【答案】29．C 30．A 31．B 32．D
【导语】这是一篇议论文，探讨了科技对人类交流的正反性。科技在为人类沟通和交流提供便利的同时，有时也被认为是切断了人们与周围人的联系。
29．细节理解题。文章第一段中“Specifically, the Internet and mobile devices have completely changed the way people interact with each other. (具体来说，互联网和移动设备已经完全改变了人们相互交流的方式)”可知，影响人类互动的因素是移动设备。故选C项。
30．主旨大意题。根据文章第二段中“Undoubtedly, technology is helping people build newer and necessary communication skills. In business, office employees and managers use technology to send emails to one another, which is considered a communication skill. On social media, just share a few of your images and people start communicating on and about your images according to their viewpoint. With the outbreak of COVID-19, in order to work on the projects, the students use their phones to reach their teachers and classmates.(毫无疑问，技术正在帮助人们培养更新的、必要的沟通技能。在商业中，办公室员工和经理使用技术相互发送电子邮件，这被认为是一种沟通技能。在社交媒体上，只需分享一些你的照片，人们就会开始根据自己的观点就你的照片进行交流。随着新冠肺炎的爆发，为了完成这些项目，学生们用手机联系老师和同学)”可知，第二段是从三个案例即：商业中、社交媒体和新冠疫情中阐述了科技有利于人类交流。故选A项。
31．细节理解题。根据第三段“In his research he found that almost 60 percent of people felt disconnected from others around when they were on their phones.(在他的研究中，他发现几乎60%的人在使用手机时感觉与周围的人隔绝了)”可知，60%在使用手机可是却感觉与周围的人隔绝。故选B项。
32． 推理判断题。根据第二段“Undoubtedly, technology is helping people build newer and necessary communication skills.(毫无疑问，技术正在帮助人们建立新的、必要的沟通技能) ”和第三段首句“However, technology is sometimes considered to disconnect people from others around them.(然而，科技有时被认为是切断了人们与周围人的联系)”可知，作者是从正反双方面分析了科技对人类交流产生的影响，因此作者的态度是客观的。故选D项。
（23-24高三上·广东深圳·期末）First-year college students often are expected or required to live in dormitories. In the rest years, it’s usually up to those students to decide whether to live on or off campus.
But some schools don’t provide an option and require four years of on-campus living for full-time students. Living on campus has been shown to increase retention (保留) and attendance rates among freshman and second-year students, according to a 2021 report. There are exceptions, however. At some colleges, students may be freed from the requirement if they are, for instance, commuters (通勤生), fifth-year seniors, at least 23 years of age or legally married.
Residential housing at colleges is not limited to shared rooms and bathrooms. Alternatives include flats, apartments, Greek houses or living-learning communities for students with shared interests. On-campus students also have access to services and resources such as residence life staff who can help if a housing issue arises. When students live in a community, they are forced to live with different people, learn more about themselves and about the others, and tell each other their stories.
On the other hand, off-campus living provides students with more independence, as they are not constrained by school housing policies. Off-campus students gain more real-world experience in areas like paying their own bills, finding renter’s insurance, cooking their own meals and negotiating or reviewing contracts. If students are choosing to live off campus, they should really think it through and talk to someone that lived off campus. Do their homework and look at all the costs before they make that decision. Make sure, too, that they are choosing people that they can live with.
At first glance, off-campus housing can appear less expensive. But the additional expenses outside of rent — like utilities, groceries, Internet access, cable and furniture — are often overlooked. To reduce off-campus costs, some students choose to overpack houses or apartments, sometimes with four or five people in a two-bedroom house. Unlike off-campus housing, the total cost of living on campus is typically all-inclusive, coveting rent, utilities, furniture, Wi-Fi and a meal plan.
33．Why do some colleges require all the students to live on campus
A．To keep them stay longer on campus for classes.
B．To make sure all students can live in shared rooms.
C．To make as much profit as possible for the colleges.
D．To monitor all of their students as easily as possible.
34．What should students do before living off campus
A．They should find someone to take care of them.
B．They should fully develop the ability to live alone.
C．They should learn all aspects of off-campus living.
D．They should seek accommodation through an agent.
35．What does the underlined word “overpack” in the last paragraph mean
A．Overlook. B．Overconsume. C．Overestimate. D．Overload.
36．What is the best title for the text
A．Residential Housing At Different Colleges
B．Choice Between Housing On or Off Campus
C．Accommodation Situation For College Students
D．Different Living Experience On or Off Campus
【答案】33．A 34．C 35．D 36．B
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。主要介绍的是大学生选择校内外住宿的优劣，并提供了选择建议，分析了校内住宿对学习的益处和校外住宿的独立生活技能需求。
33．细节理解题。根据第二段中的“But some schools don’t provide an option and require four years of on-campus living for full-time students. Living on campus has been shown to increase retention (保留) and attendance rates among freshman and second-year students, according to a 2021 report.(有些学校不提供这种选择，并要求全日制学生在校内生活四年。2021年的一份报告显示，住在校园里可以提高大一和二年级学生的留校率和出勤率。)”可知，一份报告显示，学校要求学生在校内生活能提高大一和大二学生的留效率和出勤率；由此可知，有些大学要求所有的学生都住在校园里为了让他们在上课在校园的时间更长。故选A项。
34．细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Off-campus students gain more real-world experience in areas like paying their own bills, finding renter’s insurance, cooking their own meals and negotiating or reviewing contracts. If students are choosing to live off campus, they should really think it through and talk to someone that lived off campus.(校外学生在支付自己的账单、为租房者找保险、自己做饭、谈判或审查合同等方面获得了更多的实际经验。)”可知，住在校外，学生要考虑支付自己的账单，找保险、自己做饭、协商或者审查合同等方面，结合下文中的“Do their homework and look at all the costs before they make that decision. Make sure, too, that they are choosing people that they can live with.(在做决定之前，先做足功课，看看所有的成本。同时也要确保他们选择了可以一起生活的人。)”可知，作者建议选择校外居住前要做足功课，考虑所有的成本以及确保选择了可以一起生活的人；由此可知，选择校外居住前需要考虑到方方面面的问题。故选C项。
35．词义猜测题。根据划线单词前的“To reduce off-campus costs(为了减少校外居住的成本)”以及划线单词后的“sometimes with four or five people in a two-bedroom house(有时四五个人住在一套两居室的房子里。)”可知，为了降低成本，有些学生选择在两室的卧房里住进四五个人，说明房子里住的人太多，由此可推断，划线单词overpack的意思应与“塞满或者挤满”意思相近。故选D项。
36．主旨大意题。根据首段“First-year college students often are expected or required to live in dormitories. In the rest years, it’s usually up to those students to decide whether to live on or off campus.(大学一年级的学生通常被期望或要求住在宿舍里。在剩下的几年里，通常由这些学生决定是住在校内还是校外。)”可知，大学一年级的学生要求住在宿舍，但在接下来的几年里有学生决定住在校内还是校外，结合下文介绍的校内居住和校外住宿的利和弊，并提供了相关的建议可知，本文主要介绍的是关于学生在校内和校外住房之间选择的讨论；由此可知，题目“校内居住还是校外居住的选择”与本文内容相符，且概括了本文的主题，适合作为最佳标题。故选B项。
