核心题型强化专练—阅读七选五一、阅读七选五(本大题共65小题,共650.0分)Competition is a common phenomenon in our social life.(1) There is constant competition for academic degrees,jobs,customers,money and so forth.In a sense,competition is one of the motive forces to the development of society.(2) .Therefore,the only way to survive is to be competitive.Growing in a competitive environment is important for a child because future adult life is difficult.Finding a good job,for example,is an extremely competitive activity.Today,most people obtain knowledge through various ways and a large number of people get good education.(3) .The quality of people is rapidly increasing.Competition is more violent than what we thought it should be.The potentially successful job applicant has to be prepared in stronger position by gaining more qualifications and experience.In the sports contests,the strongest will come out as winners.In the business world,to beat your competitors,you must be better than the other employees.(4) .Though the only way our world rewards people is to give honor to the winners,not to the losers,by attempting to compete at different activities,we can still learn to win and lose,gain experience and know our strengths and weaknesses.Competition prepares us for the tough things in life.Whether in games,in study or in business alike,the aim is to win the game,the degree,the trophy,and the contract.(5) .A.Otherwise,you will be defeated.B.Modern society demands high-quality talents.C.Learning to be competitive is clearly the best preparation for life.D.There are also many people who have higher degrees in their special fields.E.Children have to learn to be competitive in order to adapt to modern society.F.In the natural world,the weak will be replaced by the strong and the fittest can live.G.We compete when we play games and when we try to do better than others in our study.1.

GContinuous learning benefits us in many ways.First of all,it allows the increase in knowledge and ability in our career.For example,watching someone work can make us a better worker.(1) For example,we can learn about the general workforce and how the application process works to better prepare us for job searching.This can help if for some reason you lose your job and need to find other work.What's more,continuous learning can open our mind.Having an open mind and willingness to takeon new ideas can do wonders.First of all it builds your attitude towards change.(2) Second,when you take continuous learning into account,you can begin to understand how others feel about a particular issue.(3) They are always looking for new experiences and do different things.Moreover,they not only have knowledge on various topics that aren't always related to present roles but also know about the latest trends and technologies in the industry.To develop continuous learning,you have to begin with setting a clear and specific goal.(4) Once your goal is set,build a system to help support your strategy.You want to be looking for different sources of information,but also to be picky about it,In other words,try to learn within your specific field but ensure the information is coming from a trustworthy source- At the same time,do use tools to help improve your learning system.(5) Seminars (研讨会),workshops ,and live classes are the tools that modern learners need as they make learning effective.A.Learning can improve other areas in our lives.B.Besides,learning can prepare us for the unexpected.C.If always learning,you are always improving.D.Excellent continuous learners behave in a specific manner.E.Being excited about change can affect others around you positively.F.There're various tools to help you present information and learning.G.Knowing what you want to achieve can encourage you to keep learnings6.

GHave you ever wondered how the trainers at Sea World get the 19,000-pound whale to jump 22 feet out of water and perform tricks? They get that whale to go over a rope farther out of the water than most of us can imagine.(1) .So how do the trainers at Sea World do it? The first thing they do is reinforce(强化) the behavior that they want repeated — in this case, to get the whale to go over the rope. (2) , in a position where the whale can't help but do what's expected of it. Every time the whale goes over the rope, it's given positive reinforcement and gets fed with fish. But what happened when the whale goes under the rope? Nothing — no criticism, no warning and no feedback. (3) . Positive reinforcement is the key of that simple principle that produces such splendid results. And as the whale begins to go over the rope more often than under, the trainers begin to raise the rope.It must be raised slowly enough so that the whale doesn't starve.(4) . Make a big deal out of the good and little stuff that we want consistently. Secondly, under-criticize.People know they need help when they mess up. (5) , people will not forget the event and usually will not repeat it.So we need to set up the circumstances so that people can't fail. Over-celebrate,under-criticize…and know how far to raise the rope.A.This is a great challengeB.And the whale stays right where it isC.If we figure out a way to motivate the whaleD.They start with the rope below the surface of the waterE.If we under-criticize,punish and discipline less than expectedF.Whales are taught that their negative behavior won't be acknowledgedG.The simple lesson to be learned from the whale trainers is to over-celebrate11.

GComing to study in the UK is your opportunity to gain the skills,outlook and confidence you need to fulfil your potential.Applying to study in the UK is a straightforward process.(1) 1.Decide on a university or college and course.To ensure you choose the course that is right for you and for what you want to achieve it is best to read as much as you can about the range of courses,colleges and universities available and compare them.It is also important to check the course entry requirements.(2) If you have any questions,you can contact the university directly,who will be very happy to help you find the information you need.2.Register and apply.Applying for an undergraduate course in the UK is simple;there is one place where you can register and apply to all of the UK universities and colleges - you register and apply through UCAS (Universities and Colleges Admissions Service).3.(3)Your university or college will contact you (usually via email)to tell you whether or not you have received an offer to study.If you applied via UCAS it's easy to track the status of your application at any time.(4) You have a place and you can accept straightaway.If you are accepted with a conditional offer,the place is yours as long as you meet a few extra requirements.This could be achieving certain exam grades or English language test scores.For some courses you may be asked to come for an interview before you receive your offer,either on the phone or sometimes in person.(5)A.Apply for a visa.B.Accept your offer.C.We will guide you through it step by step.D.Once you have your offer and your visa,it's time to get packing!E.You can do this using the course profiles on the institutions' websites.F.If you are accepted with an unconditional offer,then congratulations!G.Check the course information before you apply to find out whether this is required.16.

GI work at a community library.Many people are under the assumption that public libraries are no longer needed because of the Internet.Nothing could be further from the truth.(1) .A simple Internet search for "cats" produces approximately 2.98 billion results in less than one second.It is a huge number! How do you even begin to sort through all of those results?We hear so much about "false news".(2) .Librarians are there to help.They have been trained,through special classes and workshops,to sort through all of the results and find credible sources.Author Neil Gaiman said,"Google can bring you back 100,000 answers.A librarian can bring you back the right one."(3) .It helps connect people with the resources they need to find a job,continue their education,and learn new skills.It helps seniors find the resources they need to keep up with the "modern" world.It helps new parents develop a love for literacy in their children and bond with them.It helps local artists and craftsmen display their work.It helps students find the answers to those seemingly impossible homework questions.It allows people to meet and exchange ideas.Libraries are so much more than books and information.Yes,there are public computers,Internet access,movies,music,programs and a thousand other things.(4) .They are places where people feel safe and welcomed.They are places where someone who has limited resources can freely access materials and equipment they wouldn't otherwise be able to.They can,at times,be a harbor for someone who needs a quiet place to work or study.Some of the best memories of my childhood involve going to the local library and in speaking with many others in the neighborhood,they too have those same memories.They are presently making those same memories with their children and their grandchildren.(5) .I don't see the Internet doing that.A.We don't know what sources to trust.B.The public library helps people better their lives.C.The importance of library staff comes to the surface.D.However,libraries' meaning and relevance goes even beyond that.E.The public library brings people together to build a strong community.F.In fact,it is because of the Internet that public libraries are needed now more than ever.G.Every day children,students and adults use libraries to learn,grow and achieve their dreams.21.

The colors that you select create a distinct atmosphere in the room. (1)Pick the color for your room and you can create whatever you feel like. The color will also help you to enlarge the space or making it more inviting, which will also make differently all about it.However, the trick is to select the right version of that particular color. There are different hues (色调) for blues, for instance. (2) Here we have presented a guide that will let you gain a deep insight about the colors.Blue(3) For kitchen, bathrooms and bedrooms it is an ideal choice. Of course it is also associated with sadness that means it may not strike note for each and everyone. It is a popular choice among people. Blue comes from the cold side of the color wheel, so it can make the room feel cold, unless and until it is south filling space. If you are attracted to blue color, think of going for purple, or mix red and purple.Dark blue is best for a living room. Probably it is best reserved for high ceiling space. (4)GreenLike blue, green is also a calm shade. (5) It is the shade that reflects nature and renewal. Green produces a positive energy without the feeling of over stimulation.A. Colors can light up the mood of the room.B. You can use it for a living room or a bedroom.C. They won't create similar effect and atmosphere generally.D. Traditionally, blue is just related to calmness and comfort.E. It is better that you select colors that are very warm like blue.F. Dark blue will really make you feel the wall appear near to you.G. But before diving into any decision, here's what you need to know.26. A. A B. B C. C D. D E.E F.F G. G27. A. A B. B C. C D. D E.E F.F G. G28. A. A B. B C. C D. D E.E F.F G. G29. A. A B. B C. C D.

GHow to Rent Your HouseBefore handing the keys to your house over to a complete stranger for care,there are decisions you need to make.In fact,the decisions you make now,before searching for a tenant (房客),will make the biggest impact on the success of your rental.(1) What Condition Do You Want Your House in?There is no end to the amount of improving you can do to your house before renting it out.(2) When is good enough,good enough?A house should be clean,empty (unless you are offering it "furnished",which is uncommon)and free from any major repairs at the time the tenant moves in.Remember,the home does not need to be as fancy as you would want it to be.(3) Tenants will generally never take as good care of your house as you do-so don't spend too much time or money making unnecessary upgrades that will only be ignored or broken.Should You Use a Property Manager?(4) If you have the time,abilities,and energy to manage yourself-you can save a good deal of money by doing so.However,if you try to manage without the ability-it could end up costing you much more than what a property manager might charge.How Much Can You Rent Your House for?Luckily,discovering what the monthly rent will bear for your house is not difficult.(5) In business,market research means to get out there and find out what others in your industry are charging;learning how much to charge for rent is no different.Your house will generally rent for about the same amount as other properties that are of similar location,size and condition.A.The problem becomes learning when to stop.B.No one wants to be a landlord with those problems.C.The following are some questions to answer before you rent out you house.D.Have a professional carpet cleaner clean the carpets before showing the property.E.Look around at other rentals in your area and try to see what the typical quality is.F.The best way to determine how much your house will rent for is to simply do market research.G.The decision about whether to manage yourself or hire a property manager cannot be made by anyone other than you.31.

GIf you stayed up or had a bad night of sleep last night,you know it's difficult to stay awake in class today.Your teacher's voice might begin to sound like a lullaby(催眠曲).(1) To keep yourself awake,some tips are worth trying in class.Sit in the front of the room.Why?(2) Besides,it'll be easier to pay attention and participate when you're in the front.You'll also be near the people who are more likely to participate,and the sound of their voices might keep you awake.(3) Ask and answer questions and pay attention to the lecture.This will help if you're tiredor discouraged by the content of the lecture,because you can ask your teacher questions to get to the bottom of the problems.Talking will also keep you engaged and alert.It might be helpful to make a goal for yourself to answer or ask at least 3 questions per class.(4) For example,you might say "I didn't understand the last part of the proof.Could you explain it again in more detail?"Listen actively to the lesson.Active listening is a great way to force yourself to stay awake because it requires engagement of your mind as well as your body.(5) To effectively listen to your teacher,you should try to maintain eye contact,face the speaker,pay close attention to what the speaker is saying and ask questions during a pause in the lecture.A.Participate in class activities.B.Develop interest in the subject.C.If so,classrooms can be boring because you're tired.D.Keep silent all the time and try to catch as much information as possible.E.To avoid annoying your teacher you should try to keep your questions on topic.F.You'll be more motivated to stay awake if you know that the teacher can see you easily.G.Practicing active listening can help you keep your eyes open for the length of the lesson.36.

GWhat's the purpose of building patience abilities?In a word,happiness.Better relationships,more success.But indeed it takes effort to build them successfully.(1) Thus,when the big ones come,we will have developed the patience we need for hard times.Understand the addictive nature of anger and impatience.We,human beings,are still constructed with our old reptilian(爬行动物似的)brain that protects our physical and emotional survival.On the emotional survival side,we want our way to get ahead,to achieve,to "look good." Let's just face it.(2) So the first step in growing patience is to get in touch with the addictive quality of the opposite of patience-anger,impatience,blaming and shaming.We all have them.And we can grow beyond them.Upgrade our attitude towards discomfort and pain.Pain has its purposes and pushes us to find solutions-we try to change the other person,situation or thing that we think is causing our discomfort.But the problem is that it is not the outside thing that's the source of our pain,but how our mind is set.(3)Pay attention when the impatience or pain starts.Most of us don't really realize it when we are feeling even the smallest-but very present-painful feelings.(4) But to really care for ourselves,get curious about what's actually happening in the moment inside you.Focusing on what's actually happening,you can notice the worry of not wanting what 's happening,the resistance.(5) When you find yourself impatient,or angry with yourself,you can remind yourself that you are growing,and that,"Sure,this is understandable;this is what happens to me when I'm bothered." You can say to yourself," It's true.I don't like this;this is uncomfortable,but I can tolerate it.A.Practice positive self-talk.B.So the solution to pain is an inside job.C.Patience abilities benefit you in many ways.D.Learn to forgive yourself for being impatient in hard times.E.we ignore the fact that we're in pain and focus completely on fixing the problem.F.The urge to protect ourselves and what we consider valuable is absolutely habit-forming.G.Effective ways are recommended to train ourselves to work with little pains and annoyances.41.

GSmart devices are sometimes powerful.They put a world of information at our fingertips.(1) That is a huge blessing for parents seeking flexible work hours.Smart phones and tablets can also promote efficiency by allowing people to get things done in spare moments that would otherwise be wasted,such as while queuing for coffee.They can even help lazybones create the false impression that they are working around the clock,by programming their e-mail to be sent at 1 am.But for most people,the servant has become the master.Not long ago only doctors were on call all the lime.Now everybody is.Bosses think nothing of invading their employees' free time.(2) Even people with strong mind check their smart devices with heavy addiction,even during pre-dinner drinks,and send e-mails first thing in the morning and last thing at night.(3) How can we harvest the benefits of connectivity without becoming its slaves?One solution is digital dieting.Just as the abundance of junk food means that people have to be more disciplined about their eating habits,(4) Maybe the only way to break the 24/7 habit is to act together rather than individually.The firms should introduce rules about when people are expected to be offline,and encourage them to work together to make this possible.We must be aware that the faster smart devices become and the more addictive the apps that are designed for them,the stronger the addiction will grow.(5)A.This is partly because smart devices are addictive.B.Work invades the home far more than domestic chores invade the office.C.Now it's time to outsmart the smart devices by insisting that everyone turn them off from time to lime.D.the abundance of junk information means we have to be more disciplined about our browsing habits.E.Banning texting at weekends can really show the iPhone who is boss.F.They enable people to work at home instead of crowding into the subway with smelly strangers.G.What can be done to keep smart devices in their place?51.

GHow to revise for a testStudying for tests may be one of the most difficult parts of school. (1) If you feel discouraged about an approaching test and need some directions for preparing yourself,consider using the following suggestions to help you out.Aim foremost to understand the concepts.Keep the important points in mind,and ignore unnecessary information. (2)Ask for help.When the need arises,it is best to receive help from the others. (3) You could also ask him/her for a set of questions and answers that could help you memorize the information.You could also ask a family member or a friend for help.Practice in everyday life.Fit reviewing into everyday life by sticking up notes with sentences you need to remember for the test written upon them. (4) You could possibly put one on the bathroom mirror,one at the table and another by the TV.This is optional but highly recommended.(5)Find out how much you remember certain things and what's missing.Decide what you did well in and what you did not so well in.This may boost your chances of getting more marks in the assessment and may also help you remember for next time.For instance,if you are struggling on maths problems based on geometry,then put this down as something that you need to review more than the subjects you are good at.Review often but little.Do not push yourself and try reviewing everything in one day.Practice takes time and if you rush,you won't remember anything.A. Go through what you have been learning.B. Mark your practice tests.C. As long as you remain focused on the main topics,you will be able to do well on the test.D. However,even the worst test performance could be turned around into a successful attempt.E. It can be difficult to remember the material and understand which points to study.F.

Critical(批判的)thinking is the art of using reason to analyze ideas and dig deeper to get to our true potential. It doesn’t mean you’re thinking harder or longer. ①__________. Here are some tips and ideas to help you build a foundation for critical thinking.Question your assumptions. We make a lot of assumptions about almost everything. It’s how our brain processes certain pieces of information, and how we get along in everyday life. You could say they are the foundation of our critical framework. ②__________. Then the whole foundation needs to be rebuilt, from the bottom up.Don’t take information on authority until you've investigated it yourself. Instead ofdouble-checking everything anyone says, we tend to label information as either coming from a trustworthy or not trustworthy source. This keeps us from double-checking every piece of information that comes our way, saving time and energy. But it also keeps us from getting to the bottom of things we think of as coming from a trustworthy source, even when they don’t.③__________.Put yourself in other people’s shoes. Empathy can also help you develop your critical thinking skills. ④__________. You may find that a little understanding facilitates a deeper insight into other people and their behavior. The deeper your insight into yourself and others, the wiser your decisions will be.⑤__________. There is no way to learn better than learning from your friends. If you only want to be a big fish swimming in the little pond just because your ego(自负)feels good, keep this part. If you are wondering about how to develop critical skills, make friends with smart people and throw away your ego.A. Actually, it’s about thinking better.B. Surround yourself with people smarter than you.C. Be someone that people know that they can count on.D. You should not judge others until you fully understand their situation.E. But what if they turned out to be wrong, or at least not entirely truthful?F. The reason is that understanding does not always go with the right action.G. So what is published in a magazine or online doesn’t mean it’s necessarily true.2、根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

阅读七选五(二)A(2024·安徽省宿州市高三一模)No matter where you go, you'll notice something strange about trees—the fact that their bottoms are painted white.Generally speaking, the purpose of whitewashing is to protect trees from heat and insects. 1 .Let's check them out!Blocking the sunYou might sometimes notice that some tree trunks' surfaces get dry and crack easily. 2 .Simply put, they are exposed to the burning sun and the temperatures change wildly between day and night.Fortunately, painting a tree's trunk white is similar to adding sunscreen, which helps block the sun.Heat protection3 .White paint reflects the heat and allows trees to spend more time on transpiration(蒸腾) and growing their fruits.Additionally, when trees are cooler, they have less stress, which makes their stomata(气孔) stay open a bit longer for the exchange of gases.Defending against pestsMore often than not, a tree's surface will crack, allowing insects to creep inside. 4 .Therefore, people whitewash trees using latex paint and water, which prevents insects from climbing up trees and entering inside through the cracks.5Last but not least, the surface of trees is painted white to make them more visible, specifically for those on the side of the road.Why is that important? Because accidents involving trees are extremely common, especially during the night, when drivers can not see them much more clearly.A.Stopping accidentsB.Improving visibilityC.Whitewashing is a good way to solve the problemD.The cause of this phenomenon has already been foundE.Whitewashing helps young trees remain cool in springF.However, there're many other reasons for whitewashing treesG.Bacteria will feed on the tree's inner parts, eventually killing it【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。

They get that whale to go over a rope farther out of the water than most of us can imagine . (1) .So how do the trainers at Sea World do it? The first thing they do is reinforce( 加强 ) the behavior that they want repeated — in this case, to get the whale to go over the rope. (2) , in a position where the whale can't help but do what's expected of it. Every time the whale goes over the rope, it's given positive reinforcement and gets fed with fish. But what happened when the whale goes under the rope? Nothing — no criticism, no warning and no feedback. (3) . Positive reinforcement is the key of that simple principle that produces such splendid results. And as the whale begins to go over the rope more often than under, the trainers begin to raise the rope. It must be raised slowly enough so that the whale doesn't starve .(4) . Make a big deal out of the good and little stuff that we want consistently. Secondly, under-criticize . People know they need help when they mess up.

Not long ago only doctors were on call all the lime . Now everybody is . Bosses think nothing of invading their employees' free time .
