B[2025江苏南通暨苏北七市三模]
Go to any movie theatre or sports venue, and it's obvious there's an invisible bond that forms from laughing, crying, and simply feeling while brushing shoulders with others. Researches have long backed up this sense of connection, but some aspects of the_phenomenon remained unclear. Now, a new study is offering insight.
Writing in the journal Royal Society Open Science, Victor Chung of the cole Normale Supérieure in France and his team reported how they examined the matter by inviting strangers to watch videos together in same sex pairs.
Pairs of strangers watched three types of videos together: positive, negative, and neutral(中性的) with a curtain between them that was either open or closed. At the start of the experiment the researchers asked each participant whether they'd like to meet the other member of their pair again. After watching each video, participants reported their emotions and feelings of connectedness, and after seeing all three videos they were asked once again about their feelings towards the other participant.
The results showed the emotional films generated stronger responses than the neutral film. Crucially, the team said participants' feelings of connectedness within the pairs were boosted when they experienced more intense emotions. However, this was only the case when participants watched the films with the curtain between them open. The researchers said that whether or not the pairs could see each other had no impact on how positively or negatively they felt about the films.
“We found that silently watching emotional films together with another individual is associated with social bonding, even when this person is a stranger and without any verbal(口头的) communication，” said Chung, the study author.
The team added that the findings may help explain why people seek out group activities that generate strong emotions, “even participating in sad memorials that cause negative emotions”. In other words, because emotion bonds us, and humans have a fundamental desire to belong, we're up for experiences one might think we'd naturally want to avoid.
(　　) 4. What does “the phenomenon” in paragraph 1 refer to
A. Shared emotions bond people.
B. Physical touch helps tackle stress.
C. A chance encounter leads to a friendship.
D. Entertainment is a crucial part of human life.
(　　) 5. How did the researchers get their findings
A. By analyzing participants' emotions.
B. By comparing participants' self reports.
C. By documenting participants' video responses.
D. By stimulating participants' desire for interaction.
(　　) 6. The study found that strong bonds were indeed created between pairs only when ________．
A. they were familiar with each other
B. they watched neutral films together
C. they were aware of the presence of each other
D. they could see each other while watching the films
(　　) 7. What is presented in the last paragraph of the text
A. An interpretation of the findings.
B. Potential implication of the findings.
C. Supporting evidence for the findings.
D. The underlying logic behind the findings.
二、 七选五
Do Historical Films Need to Be Accurate
Historical inaccuracies can be found in many films. __1__， or much bigger, such as changing whether someone was good or bad.
Historical films give us a glimpse(一瞥) into the past. Yet some criticize that there are fictional details in them. __2__？
Yes—otherwise they're misleading
There are so many great people from history and interesting events to learn about the past, particularly when you find the subject boring at school. Yet if films aren't being completely accurate, then people will be misinformed, and it may mean that historical figures are remembered in the wrong way. __3__. However, in real life he actually helped to rescue a lot of people. For his family, and the families of other people in such films, that might be very upsetting. History is interesting enough as it is; there is no reason for filmmakers to make things up.
__4__
The cinema is not a classroom. If the audience learns something while watching a film, that's great. But filmmakers are just trying to make something entertaining and dramatic. They should be allowed to change facts to create the best experience. After all, certain events in real life might have taken place over several years, but in order to be shown in a film, they may need to be packed into less than two hours. Some changes will have to be made for that to work. __5__. Writers and directors have no choice but to imagine what might have happened, and fill in the gaps.
A. Yes—films help us learn from the past
B. Besides, not all historical events have been recorded
C. So should filmmakers be sticking more closely to the truth in their films
D. No—films are meant to be creative
E. So should films transport viewers into a world of make believe
F. For example, in the film Titanic, a man on the ship was shown as a selfish one
G. They can be small, like changing a location

A[2022新高考Ⅱ卷]
As we age, even if we're healthy, the heart just isn't as efficient in processing oxygen as it used to be. In most people the first signs show up in their 50s or early 60s. And among people who don't exercise, the changes can start even sooner.
“Think of a rubber band. In the beginning, it is flexible, but put it in a drawer for 20 years and it will become dry and easily broken，” says Dr Ben Levine, a heart specialist at the University of Texas. That's what happens to the heart. Fortunately for those in midlife, Levine is finding that even if you haven't been an enthusiastic exerciser, getting in shape now may help improve your aging heart.
Levine and his research team selected volunteers aged between 45 and 64 who did not exercise much but were otherwise healthy. Participants were randomly divided into two groups. The first group participated in a program of nonaerobic(无氧的) exercise—balance training and weight training—three times a week. The second group did high intensity aerobic exercise under the guidance of a trainer for four or more days a week. After two years, the second group saw remarkable improvements in heart health.
“We took these 50 year old hearts and turned the clock back to 30 or 35 year old hearts，” says Levine. “And the reason they got so much stronger and fitter was that their hearts could now fill a lot better and pump(泵送) a lot more blood during exercise.” But the hearts of those who participated in less intense exercise didn't change, he says.
“The sweet spot in life to start exercising, if you haven't already, is in late middle age when the heart still has flexibility，” Levine says. “We put healthy 70 year olds through a year long exercise training program, and nothing happened to them at all.”
Dr Nieca Goldberg, a spokeswoman for the American Heart Association, says Levine's findings are a great start. But the study was small and needs to be repeated with far larger groups of people to determine exactly which aspects of an exercise routine make the biggest difference.
(　　) 1. What does Levine want to explain by mentioning the rubber band
A. The right way of exercising. B. The causes of a heart attack.
C. The difficulty of keeping fit. D. The aging process of the heart.
(　　) 2. In which aspect were the two groups different in terms of research design
A. The diet plan. B. The professional background.
C. The exercise type. D. The previous physical condition.
(　　) 3. What does Levine's research find
A. Middle aged hearts get younger with aerobic exercise.
B. High intensity exercise is more suitable for the young.
C. It is never too late for people to start taking exercise.
D. The more exercise we do, the stronger our hearts get.
(　　) 4. What does Dr Nieca Goldberg suggest
A. Making use of the findings. B. Interviewing the study participants.
C. Conducting further research. D. Clarifying the purpose of the study.
B[2025湖北八市二模]
Over the past few weeks, I've been experiencing a bad fall, largely attributed to my ADHD(注意缺陷与多动障碍) drugs running out. This has made it challenging for me to find the motivation to tackle daily tasks, including regular exercise.
However, a recent workout led to an epiphany:_neglecting physical activity was actually worsening my condition. It appears that engaging in physical activity could be an effective strategy for managing my ADHD symptoms while I await a prescription refill.
After a workout, my mind feels quieter, much like when I take my medication. This makes sense as ADHD drugs increase levels of a brain chemical called noradrenaline(去甲肾上腺素), enhancing focus, memory, and impulse control. Exercise also increases this chemical.
While these insights are promising, I'm not ready to stop my medication. Research on exercise and ADHD has mixed results. A 2023 review of 106 studies showed exercise significantly improves impulse control, attention, and task switching in young people with ADHD. However, its impact on regulating emotions and improving memories is less pronounced, and the benefits are even less for adults. In another study, 10 minutes of exercise improved impulse control in 82 adults with ADHD but had no effect on other symptoms.
These findings suggest that exercise has a modest effect on ADHD but highlight additional benefits beyond physical health. The evidence is particularly strong for depression and anxiety. A 2023 review of nearly 300 trials involving over 15，800 adults found physical activity as effective as talk therapy and medications in reducing symptoms. The benefit was stronger when combined with these treatments.
Exercise may also alleviate symptoms of other mental health conditions, such as bipolar disorder and obsessive compulsive disorder. It appears protective as well. A 2018 study of over 12 million adults found that those who exercised experienced 43 per cent fewer days of poor mental health than those who didn't. The link was strongest for team sports, cycling, and aerobic and gym activities.
I'm relieved to have found a strategy for managing my ADHD symptoms without medication. Even though exercising is the last thing I want to do when overwhelmed, I now realize its importance. The benefits of exercise for mental health are clear, and I'm committed to making it a priority in my life.
(　　) 5. What does the underlined part “an epiphany” most likely mean in paragraph 2
A. A rush resolution or decision. B. A sense of disappointment.
C. A sudden realization or insight. D. A moment of great happiness.
(　　) 6. What role does exercise play according to the research findings presented in the passage
A. Exercise is a perfect replacement for ADHD medication.
B. Exercise has no effect on mental health conditions other than ADHD.
C. Exercise can complement medication in managing ADHD symptoms.
D. Exercise benefits physical health more than obsessive compulsive disorder.
(　　) 7. Which of the following best describes the author's attitude towards exercise
A. Reluctant but importance aware. B. Casual but focused.
C. Inconsistent but passionate. D. Negative but disciplined.
(　　) 8. What can we learn from the author's experience with exercise and ADHD
A. Prevention is better than cure.
B. Every cloud has a silver lining.
C. A healthy outside starts from the inside.
D. The body is a temple; The mind is a palace.
二、 七选五
People refer to never forgetting how to ride a bike or throw a baseball as examples of “muscle memory”， the result of motor learning. __1__ It is a phenomenon that previously trained muscles acquire strength after a period of disuse.
Previous research has shown that the changes actually persist in the muscles themselves. In one study of mice, the results suggest that after nuclei in muscle cells multiply in response to an overload of training, those extra nuclei aren't lost during subsequent periods of inactivity. They are retained(保留), essentially waiting to be reactivated. If you fall off the fitness wagon(马车) for some reason, don't be frustrated. Once you have got additional nuclei, you are banking the capacity. __2__ In fact, a recent study revealed that less than eight weeks of retraining was needed to regain your former fitness. It depends on how fit you were initially, how long the lay off was, how old you are and how long you'd been exercising.
__3__ It means you still have a distinct advantage when it comes to regaining your former level of fitness. And the principle applies to both resistance training and endurance training. The best way to regain your muscle memory is to start at a level below what you were accustomed to doing, and then gradually increase in terms of duration, frequency, and then intensity. __4__
Ultimately, muscle memory is a pay off for all the past work you put into learning a sport. __5__ You will never know how much muscle memory you may have until you start training again.
A. The best way to tap into it is to “get back on the horse”.
B. Physiologists, on the other hand, define it in a different way.
C. This convinces the researchers that muscle memory may not be long lasting.
D. That is to say, we can do the sports automatically without conscious thought.
E. It is generally safe to increase these elements by 5 per cent every week or two.
F. It is evident that the more you exercise, the more muscle memory savings you will have.
G. All this news about muscle memory is encouraging for those who fell off the fitness scheme.

Qixi Festival, the Chinese equivalent of Valentine's Day that fell yesterday, was a disappointment not only for forgotten lovers, but also for businessmen left with empty pockets.
The cold reception has prompted cultural experts to seriously worry that the lovers' festival, marked for generations since the Han Dynasty(202 BCAD 220), is dying out. Some have even called for legislation to make the festival a legal “Chinese Lovers' Day”， which falls on the seventh day of the seventh month of the lunar year.
But the effectiveness of such a measure is in doubt, although efforts to preserve traditional festivals deserve high praise.
A growing number of traditional Chinese festivals, such as the Dragon Boat Festival and Mid Autumn Festival, share the same fate as the Qixi Festival.
Young people are showing less interest in traditional culture as symbolized by these festivals. Even if all traditional festivals are finally made legal, the risk of them becoming purely formalized celebrations with little meaning is not removed. If the younger generation fails to identify with the cultural significance of these holidays, there is little that can be done.
While complaining about traditional festivals' fading appeal, decision makers should reflect on cultural protection. Undeniably, our country has done a bad job of preserving culture and traditional festivals, compared to neighbouring Japan and the Republic of Korea(ROK).
The 2，500 year old Dragon Boat Festival falls on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month. The traditional customs and ceremonies of the occasion, which originated in China, have been better preserved in the ROK.
Only a few years ago did China begin to realize the significance of preserving intangible(无形的) cultural heritage when the ROK had planned to apply to the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization to list its version of the Dragon Boat Festival as an important example of intangible culture.
Concern about the traditional holidays also reminds people of the growing influence of foreign cultures as the country opens wider to the outside world. With traditional festivals becoming less important and imports such as Christmas and Valentine's Day gaining widespread popularity, the public including cultural professionals have tended to measure traditional Chinese festivals in economic terms.
Business rather than culture has begun to play a dominant role. More and more people are preoccupied with how much money can be made during the holidays.
In fact what makes traditional festivals unique and what keeps them alive is their cultural elements. After all, it is unique culture that contributes to the world's diversity with globalization.
(　　) 4. What makes Chinese cultural experts worry that the lovers' festival is dying out
A. The disappointment for both businessmen and lovers.
B. The cold reaction of the public to Qixi Festival.
C. The failure to make traditional Chinese festivals legal.
D. The action to preserve culture and traditional festivals.
(　　) 5. From paragraph 5 we can learn that ________．
A. traditional festivals are thought more highly of by the young people
B. legal celebrations reduce the risk of disappearing of traditional culture
C. the significance of traditional festivals should be more identified with
D. young people value traditional culture more while they can do little
(　　) 6. It is implied by the writer that traditional Chinese festivals should be measured ________．
A. by legal decision B. in economic ways
C. by professional rules D. in cultural terms
(　　) 7. The writer's purpose for writing this article is to ________．
A. remind us that the cultural elements make traditional festivals live on
B. complain that Japan and ROK do a better job in preserving culture
C. inform the public of the dying out of traditional Chinese festivals
D. warn people against the business role in celebrating traditional festivals
二、 七选五[2021新高考Ⅰ卷]
My husband and I just spent a week in Paris. __1__ So the first thing we did was rent a fantastically expensive sixth floor apartment the size of a cupboard. It was so tiny that we had to leave our suitcases in the hallway.
The place wasn't entirely authentic, though. Unlike a normal Parisian apartment, the plumbing(水管) worked. __2__ Our building even had a tiny lift with a female voice that said, “Ouverture des portes，” in perfect French. That is the only French phrase I mastered, and it's a shame I don't have much use for it.
Parisians are different from you and me. They never look lazy or untidy. As someone noted in this paper a couple of weeks ago, they eat great food and never gain weight. __3__ French strawberries do not taste like cardboard. Instead, they explode in your mouth like little flavor bombs.
__4__ On our first morning in Paris, I went around the corner to the food market to pick up some groceries. I bought a handful of perfectly ripe small strawberries and a little sweet melon. My husband and I agreed they were the best fruit we had ever eaten. But they cost $18!
In France, quality of life is much more important than efficiency(效率). You can tell this by café life. French cafés are always crowded. __5__ When do these people work The French take their 35 hour workweek seriously—so seriously that some labor unions recently struck a deal with a group of companies limiting the number of hours that independent contractors can be on call.
A. Not all the customers are tourists.
B. The quality of life in France is equally excellent.
C. There was a nice kitchen and a comfortable bed.
D. The amazing food is mainly consumed by local farmers.
E. That's not the only reason the French eat less than we do.
F. Our aim was to see if we could live, in some way, like real Parisians.
G. The food is so delicious that you don't need much of it to make you happy.

B[2024安徽六安一中月考]
From the time he was a young boy, Jim Haskins always had a book in his hand. While other kids were outside playing ball, Jim was usually reading. He could be found in one of his favorite places: curled up underneath the kitchen table or up in the tree that grew in his front yard.
Jim was born in Demopolis, Alabama, during the time of segregation(隔离). Because Jim was black, he was not allowed to check out a single book at the public library. Libraries were for whites only. The laws of segregation separated Jim from all the books he longed to read. But Jim was determined. He convinced a teacher at school to lend him books of her own. He even managed to get some public library books through a white woman whom his mom worked for doing laundry.
When Jim was a teenager, black Americans' struggle for equal rights was becoming the civil rights movement. Many brave people were taking risks by refusing to follow unfair segregation laws. Jim went to Montgomery, Alabama, and joined a civil rights group. The group was headed by Dr Martin Luther King, Jr. Jim believed in King's nonviolent approach to change. Once, during a peaceful march, Jim was arrested. Because of that, his college expelled him.
He did graduate from another college. Afterward, he went on to teach school in Harlem, a part of New York City. As a teacher, he had trouble finding books that interested his black students. So he decided to write his own books about successful black Americans. Through his writing, he met and interviewed many of the people he admired, including Rosa Parks.
Today, libraries have more than one hundred books written by Jim Haskins, the boy who loved to read, and today, children of all races can walk through the doors of any public library and find interesting books that inform, entertain, and inspire them.
(　　) 4. What can we learn from the description in paragraph 1
A. Jim Haskins studied harder than other kids.
B. Jim Haskins had no interest in playing ball.
C. Jim Haskins was enthusiastic about reading.
D. Jim Haskins preferred to read under the table.
(　　) 5. What does the underlined word “expelled” in paragraph 3 mean
A. Dismissed. B. Promoted. C. Praised. D. Monitored.
(　　) 6. Why was Jim Haskins determined to write his own books
A. To rise to be a famous writer. B. To put an end to segregation.
C. To appeal to black students. D. To introduce the people he admired.
(　　) 7. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. Pathways into the Library B. Anxiety for Knowledge
C. Struggles for Equal Rights D. Protest Against Segregation
二、 七选五[2024新课标Ⅰ卷]
Not all great writers are great spellers. If you want to be published, it's vital to submit a perfect, professionally presented manuscript(原稿). __1__ No editor is likely to tolerate a writer who does not take the trouble to spell words correctly.
I keep two reference books close by on my desk: dictionary and thesaurus(同义词词典). I don't trust my laptop's spellchecker. __2__ Of course, these days there are plenty of online dictionaries and thesauruses, but I'm old fashioned enough to prefer a hard cover and pages I can leaf through with my fingers. I use the Concise Oxford Dictionary and the Collins Thesaurus.
__3__ It should give you a precise definition of each word, thus differentiating it from other words whose meanings are similar, but not identical. It will also usually show how the word is pronounced.
In addition, I have an old two volume copy of the Shorter Oxford Dictionary, picked up a few years ago in a bookshop sale for just 99 pence. Of course, with its 2，672 pages, it's not exactly short. It contains around 163，000 words, plus word combinations and idiomatic phrases. __4__ However, if I need to check the origin of a word or to look up examples of its usage, there's nothing better.
For well over a hundred years the most influential English dictionary was Samuel Johnson's Dictionary of the English Language published in 1755. “To make dictionaries is dull(乏味的) work，” wrote Johnson, illustrating one definition of “dull”. __5__ A few minutes spent casting your eye over a page or two can be a rewarding experience.
A. I don't often use this dictionary.
B. It takes no account of the context.
C. But I still don't want to replace them.
D. But a dictionary can be a pleasure to read.
E. Of course, a dictionary is not only for spelling.
F. That means good grammar and no spelling mistakes.

一、 1—3 BAB　4—7 ABDB
A
【语篇导读】本文是应用文，主要介绍四部2024年最佳电影。
1. 细节理解题。根据Twisters中“The new version of the 90s movie Twister stars Daisy Edgar Jones, Glen Powell and Anthony Ramos.”可知，Twisters是翻拍的电影。
2. 细节理解题。根据Inside Out 2中“The gang is back together in this animated follow up to the beloved Pixar movie”和Mufasa: The Lion King中“This time, Barry Jenkins directs the cartoon”可知，这两部电影都是动画片。
3. 文章出处题。根据第一段“Welcome to our guide of the Best Movies of 2024, featuring every certified fresh movie as they come in week by week！”及下文可知，这篇文章主要介绍几部2024年最佳电影，所以可能来自某个娱乐网站。
B
【语篇导读】本文是说明文，主要探讨了共同观看情感视频如何促进陌生人之间的社会联系。研究通过实验发现，当陌生人一起观看情感视频并能够看到彼此时，他们的联系感会增强。
4. 推理判断题。根据第一段中“Go to any movie theatre or sports venue, and it's obvious there's an invisible bond that forms from laughing, crying, and simply feeling while brushing shoulders with others.”可推知，the phenomenon指的是上文提到的“共享情感将人们联系在一起”。
5. 推理判断题。根据第三段中“After watching each video, participants reported their emotions and feelings of connectedness, and after seeing all three videos they were asked once again about their feelings towards the other participant.”可推知，研究人员通过比较参与者的自我报告得出研究结果。
6. 细节理解题。根据第四段中“However, this was only the case when participants watched the films with the curtain between them open.”可知，只有当参与者拉开窗帘观看电影时，他们之间的联系感才会增强。所以强烈的联系感仅在参与者能够看到彼此时产生。
7. 段落大意题。根据最后一段中可知，研究团队补充说，这些发现可能有助于解释为什么人们会寻求产生强烈情感的群体活动，甚至参加引发负面情绪的纪念活动，所以最后一段提出了研究结果的潜在意义。
二、 1—5 GCFDB
【语篇导读】本文是议论文，论述了历史题材的电影内容是否需要准确反映历史。
1. 根据下文or much bigger, such as changing whether someone was good or bad可知，连词or连接的是两种改动方式，即改动大或改动小，并分别举例。G项“改动可以很小，比如改变一个地点”符合语境，其中small与下文much bigger构成选择关系。
2. 根据上文“Historical films give us a glimpse into the past. Yet some criticize that there are fictional details in them.”可知，历史题材的电影中有虚构的细节；结合下文小标题Yes—otherwise they're misleading可推知，空处的问题应该与“历史题材的电影是否应该保证真实性”有关，并得到肯定的回答“Yes”，C项“那么，电影制作人是否应该让他们的电影更贴近真相呢”符合语境。
3. 根据下文“However, in real life he actually helped to rescue a lot of people.”可知，上下文有转折，这里描述了一个真实情况与电影内容不符的例子，所以空处会把这个电影例子举出来。F项“例如，在电影《泰坦尼克号》中，船上的一个人被表现为一个自私的人”符合语境。
4. 根据第三段的标题Yes—otherwise they're misleading可知，上文是支持“历史题材电影要贴近事实”这一论点的。而下文“The cinema is not a classroom.”表明电影不需要像上课一样教真实的历史，说明这一段的论点是与第三段相反的。D项“不，电影就是要创新”在结构上、内容上都与第三段论点形成对照，符合语境。
5. 根据下文“Writers and directors have no choice but to imagine what might have happened, and fill in the gaps.”可知，这里作者在对上文进行解释，编剧和导演只能想象曾经可能发生过什么以进行补充或创作。因此空处会表明观点：并不是所有的历史事件都能被查阅。B项“此外，并非所有的历史事件都有记载”符合语境。

【语篇导读】本文是说明文，介绍了贝蒂·苏亚雷斯是如何成功的。
1. smart聪明的；modern现代的；wrong错误的；unfashionable不时尚的。根据下文thick red glasses, untidy hair and large metal braces on her teeth可知，贝蒂有着不时尚的穿着品位。
2. encouraged鼓励；pushed推；stopped阻止；avoided避免。根据上文But可知，前后是转折关系，贝蒂虽然穿着过时，但这并没有阻止她成为美国人最喜欢的电视角色之一。
3. tend倾向于；intend打算；manage勉力完成；help帮助。根据上文“But this hasn't _
