阅读理解之怎样做题:细节理解题——定区间,仔细比对一、题型解读及思维导向细节理解题考查考生对阅读材料中的某一具体事实和细节的理解。
所谓细节理解题,是指题干针对原文提到的某事物、现象或理论进行发问。
常见的设题形式有直接理解题(在原文中可直接找到答案,常用who, what, when, where, why, which和how等提问)、语义转化题(需要将题目信息与原文相关信息进行语义上的转换,两者存在表达上的差异,有时需要进行加工或整理后方能得出结论)、数字计算题和事件排序题等。
抓住文章中的事实和细节是做好该类题的关键。
解题原则是忠实于原文及全篇的逻辑关系,决不能主观臆断。
此类题我们可以采用照题查阅法快速找出原文信息,然后仔细比对选项,从而选出正确答案。
二、命题区间及读文关注点1.数据出现处文章中的数据经常作为命制数字计算题的依据,因此凡是文章中出现有关数据的地方,如年代、日期、时间、百分比、价钱、总量等,考生在阅读时要作出标记,以便定位查找。
2.专有名词出现处在高考英语阅读理解中,人名、地名以及机构等专有名词的前后文是经常命制细节理解题的地方,阅读时要多加关注。
3.举例或比喻信息点出现处为了使观点更具说服力、更加明确,使文章更加充实、更加可信,作者常以具体的例子或比喻来论证。
这些例子和比喻是细节理解题的常考点,因此考生应对那些引出例子或比喻的信号词加以注意。
常见的这类词汇有:as, such as, for example, for instance等。
4.比较信息点出现处比较信息处是经常出细节理解题的地方。
比较句型有下面三种:第一种是一般意义上的表示比较关系的句型,如:more ...than, less ...than, no/not more than, anything/nothing but, not ...but, the+比较级..., the+比较级..., prefer ...to, as ...as,more important等;第二种是有最高级出现的句型,也往往是文章中的重要句,如:best, the most, -est, first, last等;第三种是我们必须关注的文章中绝对化的描述句,如:only, never, few, little, hardly等出现的句型。

阅读理解之“细节理解”题解题指导细节理解题是指原文提到了某事实、现象或理论,而题干则针对原文的具体叙述设问,属于浅层次的理解题,难度较低,但在中考中却占有很大比重。
同学们解答细节题时,需要在有限的时间内运用略读、扫读、跳读等技巧快速阅读,发现文章中的细节信息,然后遵循由整体到细节的原则,把握作者的思路,按全文—段落—词语的步骤来解题。
一、命题特点事实细节题的考点非常明确,考点通常集中在以下几处:1.列举信息。
文章中first, second, to begin with, in addition, on one hand, on the other hand等并列关系出现的地方,常会要求考生从所列的内容中选择符合题干要求的选项。
2.举例与打比方。
要注意那些引出例子或比喻的标志词,如as, such as, for example, for instance 等,用于引出具体事实,使文章观点更具说服力。
这些事例就是常考的细节之处。
3.指示代词出现。
这类考题常用来考查学生是否真正了解上下文句子之间的逻辑关系。
4.引用人物论断。
作者为使论点更有依据,常会引用某些权威人士的论断或采纳其重要的发现。
5.特殊标点符号后的内容。
因为特殊标点符号后的内容往往是对前面内容的进一步解释或说明,因此,注意到这些标点,也就注意到了细节。
这些特殊符号包括表示解释的破折号、括号和冒号以及表示引用的引号等。
另外,细节理解题的选项也很有特点:通常正确答案不是照搬的原文。
而干扰选项则正好相反,有的来自原文信息,但不是题目要求的内容;有的符合常识,但不符合原文内容;有的与原句内容极为相似,是在程度上有些变动;有的与原文大相径庭甚至完全相反;也有的是部分正确或部分错误。
二、解题方法1.跳读查找法。
这个方法的要点在于先看题干,然后带着问题读文章。
以what, who, where, when, why, how 提问的问题,可以从文章中直接找到答案。

AYou probably know who Marie Curie was, but you may not have heard of Rachel Carson. Of the outstanding ladies listed below, who do you think was the most important woman of the past 100 years?Jane Addams (1860-1935)Anyone who has ever been helped by a social worker has Jane Addams to thank. Addams helped the poor and worked for peace. She encouraged a sense of community by creating shelters and promoting education and services for people in need In 1931, Addams became the first American woman to win the Nobel Peace Prize.Rachel Carson (1907-1964)If it weren’t for Rachel Carson, the environmental movement might not exist today. Her popular 1962 book Silent Spring raised awareness of the dangers of pollution and the harmful effects of chemicals on humans and on the world’s lakes and oceans.Sandra Day O’Connor (1930-present)When Sandra Day O’Connor finished third in her class at Stanford La w School, in 1952, she could not find work at a law firm because she was a woman. She became an Arizona state senator(参议员) and, in 1981, the first woman to join the U.S. Supreme Court. O’Connor gave the deciding vote in many important cases during her 24 years on the top court.Rosa Parks (1913-2005)On December 1, 1955, in Montgomery, Alabama, Rasa Parks would not give up her seat on a bus to a passenger.

Even when her daughter and son asked her to move to San Antonio to helptheir children, she politely refused. Only after a year of friendly discussion didMs. Garza finally say yes.That was four years ago. Today all three generations regard the move to a success, giving them a closer relationship than they would have had in separate cities.No statistics show the number of grandparents like Garza who are moving closer to the children and grandchildren. Yet there is evidence suggesting that the trend is growing. Even President Obama’s mot her-in-law, Marian Robinson, has agreed to leave Chicago and into the White House to help care for her granddaughters. According to a study grandparents com. 83 percent of the people said Mrs. Robinson’s decision will influence the grandparents in the American family. Two-thirds believe more families will follow the example of Obama’s family.“I n the 1960s we were all a little wild and couldn’t get away from home far enough or fast enough to prove we could do it on our own,” says Christine Crosby, publis her of grate magazine for grandparents .We now realize how important family is and how important to be near them, especially when you’re raining children.”Moving is not for everyone. Almost every grandparent wants to be with his or her grandchildren and is willing to make sacrifices, but sometimes it is wiser to say no and visit frequently instead. Having your grandchildren far away is hard, especially knowing your adult child is struggling, but giving up the life you know may be harder.25. Why was Ga rza’s move a success?A.

Get to know themselves betterCI am peter Hodes , a volunteer stem courier. Since March 2012, I've done 89 trips of those, 51 have been abroad, I have 42 hours to carry stem cells(干细胞)in my little box because I've got two ice packs and that's how long they last, in all, from the time the stem cells are harvested from a donor(捐献者) to the time they can be implanted in the patient, we’ve got 72 h ours at most, so I am always conscious of time.I had one trip last year where I was caught by a hurricane in America. I picked up the stem cells in Providence, Rhode Island, and was meant to fly to Washington then back to London. But when I arrived at the check-in desk at Providence, the lady on the desk said: “Well, I’m reallysorry, I’ve got some bad news for you-there are no fights from Washington.” So I took my box and put it on the desk and I said :”In this box are some stem cells that are urgently n eeded for a patient-please, please, you’ve got to get me back to the United Kingdom.” She just dropped everything. She arranged for a flight on a small plane to be held for me.re-routed (改道)me through Newark and got me back to the UK even earlier than originally scheduled.For this courier job, you’re consciously aware than that box you’re got something that is potentially going to save somebody’s life.29.

Which flight did the woman put Peter on first?A. To LondonB. To NewarkC. To ProvidenceD. To WashingtonDThe meaning of silence varies among cultural groups. Silences may be thoughtful, or they may be empty when a person has nothing to say. A silence in a conversation may also show stubbornness, or worry. Silence may be viewed by some cultural groups as extremely uncomfortable; therefore attempts may be made to fill every gap with conversation. Persons in other cultural groups value silence and view it as necessary for understanding a person's needs. Many Native Americans value silence and feel it is a basic part of communicating among people, just as some traditional Chinese and Thai persons do. Therefore, when a person from one of these cultures is speaking and suddenly stops, what maybe implied is that the person wants the listener to consider what has been said before continuing. In these cultures, silence is a call for reflection. Other cultures may use silence in other ways, particularly when dealing with conflicts among people or in relationships of people with different amounts of power. For example, Russian, French, and Spanish persons may use silence to show agreement between parties about the topic under discussion. However, Mexicans may use silence when instructions are given by a person in authority rather than be rude to that person by arguing with him or her. In still another use, persons in Asian cultures may view silence as a sign of respect, particularly to an elder or a person in authority.Nurses and other care-givers need to be aware of the possible meanings of silence when they come across the personal anxiety their patients may be experiencing. Nurses should recognize their own personal and cultural construction of silence so that a patient’s silence is not interrupted too early or allowed to go on unnecessarily. A nurse who understands the healing value of silence can use this understanding to assist in the care of patients from their own and from other cultures.32. What does the author say about silence in conversations?A.It implies anger.B.It promotes friendship.C.It is culture-specific.D. It is content-based.33. Which of the following people might regard silence as a call for careful thought?A. The Chinese.B. The French.C. The Mexicans.D.The Russians.34. What does the author advice nurses to do about silence?A. Let it continue as the patient pleases.B. Break it while treating patients.C. Evaluate its harm to patients.D.Make use of its healing effects.35. What may be the best title for the text?A. Sound and SilenceB. What It Means to Be SilentC. Silence to Native AmericansD.

Trying to help injured, displaced or sick creatures can be heartbreaking; survival is never certain. However, when it works, it is simply beautiful.I got a rescue call from a woman in Muttontown. She had found a young owl(猫头鹰) on the ground. When I arrived, I saw a 2-to 3-week-old owl. It had already been placed in a carrier for safety.I examined the chick(雏鸟) and it seemed fine. If I could locate the nest, I might have been able to put it back, but no luck. My next work was to construct a nest and anchor it in a tree.The homeowner was very helpful. A wire basket was found. I put some pine branches into the basket to make this nest safe and comfortable. I placed the chick in the nest, and it quickly calmed down.Now all that was needed were the parents, but they were absent. I gave the homeowner a recording of the hunger screams of owl chicks. These advertise the presence of chicks to adults; they might also encourage our chick to start calling as well. I gave the owner as much information as possible and headed home to see what news the night might bring.A nervous night to be sure, but sometimes the spirits of nature smile on us all! The homeowner called to say that the parents had responded to the recordings. I drove over and saw the chick in the nest looking healthy and active. And it was accompanied in the nest by the greatest sight of all — LUNCH!The parents had done their duty and would probably continue to do so.24. What is unavoidable in the author’s rescue work according to paragrap h 1?A. Efforts made in vain.B. Getting injured in his work.C. Feeling uncertain about his future.D. Creatures forced out of their homes.25. Why was the author called to Muttontown?A. To rescue a woman.B. To take care of a woman.C. To look at a baby owl.D. To cure a young owl.26. What made the chick calm down?A. A new nest.B. Some food.C. A recording.D. Its parents.27. How would the author feel about the outcome of the event?A. It’s unexpected.B. It’s beautifu l.C. It’s humorous.D. It’s discouraging.CSome of the world’s most famous musicians recently gathered in Paris and New Orleans to celebrate the first annual International Jazz Day. UNESCO ( United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization) recently set April 30 as a day to raise awareness of jazz music, its significance, and its potential as a unifying(联合) voice across cultures.Despite the celebrations, though, in the U.S. the jazz audience continues to shrink and grow older, and the music has failed to connect with younger generations.It’s Jason Moran’s job to help change that. As the Kennedy Center’s artistic adviser for jazz, Moran hopes to widen the audience for jazz, make the music more accessible, and preserve its history and culture.“Jazz seems like it’s not really a part of the American appetite,” Moran tells National Public Radio’s reporter Neal Conan. “What I’m hoping to accomplish is that my generation and younger start to reconsider and understand that jazz is not black an d white anymore. It’s actually color, and it’s actually digital.”Moran says one of the problems with jazz today is that the entertainment aspect of the music has been lost. “The music can’t be presented today the way it was in 1908 or 1958. It has tocont inue to move, because the way the world works is not the same,” says Moran.Last year, Moran worked on a project that arranged Fats Waller’s music for a dance party, “Just to kind of put it back in the mind that Waller is dance music as much as it is concert music,” says Moran. “For me, it’s the recontextualization. In music, where does the emotion(情感) lie? Are we, as humans gaining any insight (感悟) on how to talk about ourselves and how something abstract as a Charlie Parker record gets us into a dialogue about our emotions and our thoughts? Sometimes we lose sight that the music has a wider context,” says Moran, “So I want to continue those dialogue. Those are the things I want to foster.”28. Why did UNESCO set April 30 as International Jazz Day?A. To remember the birth of jazz.B. To protect cultural diversity.C. To encourage people to study music.D. To recognize the value of jazz.29. What does the underlined word “that” in Paragraph 3 refer to?A. Jazz becoming more accessible.B. The production of jazz growing faster.C. Jazz being less popular with the young.D. The jazz audience becoming larger.30. What can we infer about Moran’s opinion on jazz?A. It will disappear gradually.B. It remains black and white.C. It should keep up with the times.D. It changes every 50 years.31. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A. Exploring the Future of jazz.B. The Rise and Fall of jazz.C. The Story of a jazz Musician.D. Celebrating the Jazz Day.DA build-it-yourself solar still(蒸馏器)is one of the best ways to obtain drinking water in areas where the liquid is not readily available. Developed by two doctors in the U.S. Department of Agriculture, it’s an excellent water collector. Unfortunately, you must carry the necessary equipment with you, since it’s all but impossible to find natural substitutes. The only components required, though, are a 5’ 5’ sheet of clear or slightly milky plastic, six feet of plastic tube, and a container— perhaps just a drinking cup — to catch the water. These pieces can be folded into a neat little pack and fastened on your belt.To construct a working still, use a sharp stick or rock to dig a hole four feet across and three feet deep. Try to make the hole in a damp area to increase the water catcher’s productivity. Place your cup in the deepest part of the hole. Then lay the tube in place so that one end rests all the way in the cup and the rest of the line runs up — and out — the side of the hole.Next, cover the hole with the plastic sheet, securing the edges of the plastic with dirt and weighting the sheet’s center down with a rock. The plastic should now form a cone(圆锥体) with 45-degree-angled sides. The low point of the sheet must be centered directly over, and no more than three inches above, the cup.The solar still works by creating a greenhouse under the plastic. Ground water evaporates (蒸发) and collects on the sheet until small drops of water form, run down the material and fall off into the cup. When the container is full, you can suck the refreshment out through the tube, and won’t have to break down the still every time you need a drink.32. What do we know about the solar still equipment from the first paragraph?A. It’s delicate.B. It’s expensive.C. It’s complex.D. It’s portable.33. What does the underlined phrase “the water catcher” in paragraph 2 refer to?A. The tube.B. The still.C. The hole.D. The cup.34. What’s the last step of constructing a working solar still?A. Dig a hole of a certain size.B. Put the cup in place.C. Weight the sheet’s center down.D. Cover the hole with the plastic sheet.35. When a solar still works, drops of water come into the cup from .A .the plastic tube B. outside the holeC. the open airD. beneath the sheet参考答案:【16全国卷I】 21-35 ACDC ADCA BDB CADB【17全国卷I】21-35 BDAAC ABDCC ADBCD。

【分析】选项中的描述将原文内容扩大或缩小,与原文的内容极其相似,只是在程度上有些变动。
干扰项使用了与文中某句话相似的句子结构和陈述,但在陈述中对某个细节的陈述有变动,关键地方换了单词,增加或删除了部分信息,从而改变了句意,而考生在答题时却没有注意到这一变化。
易错陷阱2:张冠李戴易混易错点。
【分析】所述细节确实与原文一致,但变换了主体,把文中的“张三”换成了选项中的“李四”。
这里的”张冠李戴”指的是把文中作者的观点与他人的观点混淆在一起,比如题干问的是作者的观点,选项陈述的是他人的观点,把两个信息点故意错误地混合在一起,这样偷换概念的陈述与文意相差甚远,考生很容易因为粗心或没有看懂原文而做出错误的选择。

So a very unique farm in Hudson Bay is growing fresh, pesticide-free vegetables in a hydroponic(水培的)farm all year long. There the plants are grown in water instead of soil.Growing vegetables in the middle of nowhere, about 300 kilometres northeast of Saskatoon, may seem like a big risk, but there is no other place for people to get locally grown food. Produce is available in local supermarkets but it is trucked in from far away.The idea to turn the no longer used Stewart Hawke school into a farm came to the Nels when Hudson Bay asked for bids(投标) for the building in 2018.It was empty and if an alternative use wasn’t found, it would be pulled down.k.”......What did the farm use to be?A.A supermarketB.A schoolC.

It is full of strong emotions, both positive and negative, and new and interesting experiences. They are, however, seldom boring or dull.......These findings suggest that while most people do struggle to be happy and have meaning and purpose in their lives, a sizable number of people are content only living a psychologically rich life. Indeed, other new research suggests that for a lot of people, the intensity (强度) of the experience matters more than only how “positive” or “negative” it was. As Oishi and his colleagues conclude, “we believe that taking the psychologically rich life seriously will deepen, broaden and enrich our understanding of well-being.”At the end of the day, there is no one acceptable path to the good life. You have to find a path that works best for you. As Nietzsche put it: “No one can build you the bridge on which you, and only you, must cross the river of life. There may be countless bridges but there is one path in the world that none can walk but you. Where does it lead? Don’t ask, walk!”1.According to the passage, the psychologically rich life is _________.A.full of meaning and purposeB.nothing but different emotionsC.strong emotions and interesting experiencesD.all about being content with what you have2.Shigehiro Oishi and his colleagues hold the view that ________.A.the psychologically rich life is the best oneB.more people prefer to live a psychologically rich lifeC.there is no difference between,’ positive’ and ‘negative’ experienceD.studying psychological richness helps to understand well-being better【易错点提醒二】张冠李戴易混易错点【例2】(2023·江苏苏州·高三苏州中学校考期中)Animal studies have demonstrated the strong impact of a male mammal’s nutritional history on its offspring (后代). For instance, male rats that experience starvation before mating produce offspring with altered blood sugar levels and changes in hormones like corticosterone (which helps fight stress) and insulin-like growth factor (which aids in baby development)....Increasingly, biology reveals that a person’s health and well-being significantly impact the health and happiness of their future children. It is not solely because a tough man is more likely to be a great father or due to his genetic makeup. Regardless of a person’s inherited characteristics, the lifestyle choices they make throughout their life, even before considering parenthood, will have a lasting impact on their children’s physical and mental well-being.What can be learned from the passage?A.A strong male is likely to leave more offspring behind.B.The lifestyle a male has chosen affects not only himself but also his children.C.A healthy male usually gets the best genes to pass along to his future generations.D.It is unlikely that a happy male will develop anxiety and depression.【变式1】(2023·湖北·高一华中师大一附中校考)If you’re planning to visit Japan, it is a good idea to understand some basic customs.SURGICAL MASKSSeeing photos of people in Japan wearing surgical masks, you might wonder if surgical masks are just a fashion.

It is even more dangerous if you happen to be a blind climber, as Jesse Dufton is. The 34-year-old was born with a rare genetic disease (遗传病) that left him with less than 20 percent of his vision (视觉), which then kept dropping over the years. He chooses to climb, because it’s better than sitting at home feeling sorry for yourself, right? Climbing is not the most dangerous thing I do on an average day; crossing the road on the way to work is far more risky than Hoy.”Dufton has been climbing mountains since childhood. As a skilled climber, his father would take him out at weekends. He was always physical then, always up for adventure. He played sports atschool, though quickly grew frustrated (沮丧) with many of them. Badminton was a joke for someone like me, and even blind cricket — with a ball with a bell in it — annoyed me. “Instead he was attracted to climbing and skiing, and insists that climbing is one of the safer activities for a blind person to undertake. “True, you can’t see the handholds, or the footholds. You can’t see where the opportunities are, or where to place your hands and your gear (齿轮), so you just have to take it slowly. You search around until you can feel for something to hold onto, and then basically repeat the process over and over again. To keep calm in these situations helps.”It was Jesse himself who made a documentary happen. He told the filmmaker Alistair Lee about his pastime, believing it might be worth capturing on film. I realized my story was quite unusual,” he says, adding that he felt almost duty-bound to share it. If somebody like me watches it, and they find it inspirational, then it wouldn’t be right for me to keep that from them, wouldn’t it?”1.What is more dangerous in Jesse Dufton’s eyes?A.Losing eyesight gradually.B.Daily routines in his life.C.Climbing the Old Man of Hoy.D.Staying at home all day.2.Jesse persuaded Alistair Lee to make a documentary to _________.A.show his unique talent for climbingB.inspire more people with disabilityC.give credit to the brave climbersD.educate people about risky sports1.(2023年新高考I卷A篇)Bike Rental & Guided Tours......PricesHand Brake, Three Gears Foot Brake, No Gears1 hour€7.50€5.003 hours€11.00€7.501 day (24 hours)€14.75€9.75Each additional day€8.00€6.00Guided City ToursThe 2.5-hour tour covers the Gooyer Windmill, the Skinny Bridge, the Rijksmuseum, Heineken Brewery and much more.

For them, it’s just normal.This hit home for me as I was sitting with my 2-year-old grandson on a sofa over the Spring Festival holiday. I had brought a children’s book to read. It had simple words and colorful pictures — a perfect match for his age.Picture this: my grandson sitting on my lap as I hold the book in front so he can see the pictures.As I read, he reaches out and pokes (戳) the page with his finger.What’s up with that? He just likes the pictures, I thought. Then I turned the page and continued. He poked the page even harder. I nearly dropped the book. I was confused: Is there something wrong with this kid?Then I realized what was happening. He was actually a stranger to books. His father frequently amused the boy with a tablet computer which was loaded with colorful pictures that come alive when you poke them. He thought my storybook was like that.Sorry, kid. This book is not part of your high-tech world. It’s an outdated, lifeless thing. An antique, like your grandfather. Well, I may be old, but I’m not hopelessly challenged, digitally speaking. I edit video and produce audio. I use mobile payment. I’ve even built websites.There’s one notable gap in my new-media experience, however: I’ve spent little time in front of a camera, since I have a face made for radio. But that didn’t stop China Daily from asking me last week to share a personal story for a video project about the integration of Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei province.Anyway, grandpa is now an internet star — two minutes of fame! I promise not to let it go to my head. But I will make sure my 2-year-old grandson sees it on his tablet.5.Why did the kid poke the storybook?A.He took it for a tablet computer.B.He disliked the colorful pictures.C.He was angry with his grandpa.D.He wanted to read it by himself.6.What does the author think of himself?A.Socially ambitious.B.Physically attractive.C.Financially independent.D.Digitally competent.7.What can we learn about the author as a journalist?A.He lacks experience in his job.B.He seldom appears on television.C.He manages a video department.D.He often interviews internet stars.4.(广东省七校联合体2023-2024学年高三联考试题)......During the world’s first holographic lesson, Ms Raducanu’s avatar appeared to feed balls to the players and gave live feedback on their shots, like “that was fast and there was lots of topspin on that”. Even Sam said he thought she had been prerecorded at first until she spoke with him directly.Their holographic training session offers a glimpse into how advancing technology could revolutionize tennis coaching, according to Dr Ian Pearson.Dr Pearson thinks that mixed reality headsets will soon allow tennis players to feel they are playing in unusual virtual environments, like on a space station or the middle of a lake Through 5G, the future of tennis will see increased interaction between real life tennis courts and the rich imagination we see in computer games-playing whenever, wherever and whoever you want.Full sensory virtual reality could even place the viewer inside the tennis player’s shoes in real time. Dr Pearson said: “By 2030, with active skin technology, the playing styles and even the sensations of top-level players could be captured, so that anyone could experience how it actually felt to play that game through full sensory virtual reality.”4.What did Ms Raducanu do in the first holographic lesson?A.Give players a real time guidance.B.Require players to follow her shots.C.Record coaching contents in advance.D.Share her experiences through the hologram. 5.What can full sensory virtual reality make viewers do?A.Increase their imagination of sports.B.Take the place of top level players.C.Experience the feeling of players on the spot.D.Have a sense of playing in an unusual place.5.(广东省七校联合体2023-2024学年高三联考试题)People trained to detect lies often rely on multiple signs, such as eye contact, length of responses and the details in what people say, but studies have shown that assessing a wide range of behavioural information can make it harder to decide if someone is lying. Bruno Verschuere at the University of Amsterdam and his colleagues wondered whether solely focusing on the detail of statements could provide more consistent results.To test this idea, researchers asked 44 students to go for a walk or steal from a mock (模仿的) crime. Students were instructed to lie if they committed the fake theft.Next, the researchers recruited 171 people to watch six truthful and six deceptive (欺骗的) interviews from these recordings, ranking interviewees’ eye contact and detail level. The results revealed that both truth-tellers and liars averted (转移) their gaze a similar amount, but truthful statements were substantially more detailed than deceptive ones, suggesting the latter is a more useful way to tell that someone is lying.......8.Bruno Verschuere and his colleagues conducted the research to confirm that ________.A.behavioral information played a vital role in finding out the truthB.people should be trained to detect lies by referring to multiple cuesC.truthtellers and liars shared something in common when performing the taskD.it’s relatively easier to identify liars by relying only on the detail of statements9.What can we learn from paragraph 3 and 4?A.Liars turned away their eyes more often than truth-tellers.B.Truthful statements included considerably more details than deceptive ones.C.It’s difficult for participants to detect liars by using multiple cues like eye contact.D.Participants who relied on one cue can distinguish lies from the truth faultlessly.6.(2024届浙江省强基联盟高三仿真模拟卷)Young people are being criticized for working from home again, with one professor saying it adversely affects their professional and romantic success.Scott Galloway, a marketing professor at the New York University, spoke about the harms of being at home at The Wall Street Journal’s CEO Council Summit, on Wednesday.A clip posted on TikTok shows Galloway saying, “You should never be at home. That’s what I tell young people. Home is for seven hours of sleep and that’s it. The amount of time you spend at home is oppositely correlated to your success professionally and romantically. You need to be out of the house.”In another clip at the same event, the professor insisted that success and work-life balance do not go hand in hand. He said, “If you expect to be in the top 10% economically, much less the top 1%,buck up. Two decades plus, of nothing but work. That’s my experience.”Galloway has long been an advocate of office working and shunned remote working habits because it weakens young people’s ability to build relationships and network. He previously advised young workers, “Before you collect dogs and spouses, get into the office, establish mentors, establish friends,” in an interview with CNN. He added that workers who get promoted are the ones with the best relationships at work.8.What can be the harm of working from home according to Galloway?A.Less successful careers.B.Imbalance between work and life.C.Worse relationship at home.D.Loss of sleep time.9.What can be Galloway’s advice to young workers?A.Develop remote working habits.B.Keep a pet at home.C.Establish relationships in the office.D.Get promotion at work.7.(2024届浙江省强基联盟高三仿真模拟卷)A new study suggests that mindfulness education — lessons on techniques to calm the mind and body — can reduce the negative effects of stress and increase students’ ability to stay engaged, helping them stay on track academically and avoid behavior problems.After finding that students who self-reported mindful habits performed better on tests and had higher grades, researchers from the Center for Education Policy Research at Harvard University wanted to know if school-based mindfulness training could help more students reap similar benefits.......12.What was the purpose of the study?A.To examine the techniques for practicing mindfulness.B.To study the effects of group mindfulness training on students.C.To see how students help themselves to perform better on tests.D.To understand why mindfulness training calms the mind and body.8.(2023年湖南省郴州市九校联盟高三试题)Eighteen-year-old David Aguilar from Andorra was born without a right forearm due to a rare genetic condition but that has never stopped him from doing anything he wanted to do including typing on a computer with his partial arm.Like most kids, David was a LEGO fan and he loved building cars, boats, planes, and motorbikes.

They’ve done so every year since the now-global tradition began 25 years ago.For Moira Dalibor, who teaches math at a school, this was the first count. She led a group of students and parents to an arboretum (植物园) for an exercise in data-gathering. They were among hundreds of thousands of people around the world counting and recording over four days. Last year, about 385,000 people from 192 countries took part in the GBBC.......This is how it works: Participants watch birds, whether that means looking out of the window for15 minutes or taking a longer trip to a nature area. Organizers recommend the Merlin bird ID app to distinguish birds by size, shape, song or other characteristics. Many participants also carry field guides and binoculars (双筒望远镜) along with their phones. They then enter the findings into the eBird app. Those numbers help researchers track the ups and downs of various species, which then help determine the direction of conservation efforts.Dalibor prepared her classes with information about local species and practiced with the Merlin app. The kids recorded bird sightings with pencils and drawing boards, and parent volunteers entered those numbers on phones.12.Why did Dalibor lead her students to an arboretum?A.To do exercise for health.B.To observe different plants.C.To practice their math skills.D.To collect information about birds.13.What can people use the Merlin bird ID app to do?A.To record their findings.B.To identify different birds.C.To help determine the birds’ habitat.D.To track the ups and downs of various species.10.(福建省厦门第二中学2023-2024年高三试题)Central ParkExplore Central Park, one of the largest city parks in the world and one of the most famous symbols of New York.

This is really hard to build into flying robots, but MIT Assistant Professor Kevin Yufeng Chen has developed an insect-sized drone (无人机) that approaches insects’ agility.Typically, drones require wide open spaces. “If we look at most drones today, they’re usually quite big,” says Chen. “Most of their applications involve flying outdoors. The question is: Can you create an insect-sized drone that can move around in very crowded and complex spaces?”According to Chen, he overcame many problems when building the drone. The insect-sized drone requires a fundamentally different construction from a larger one. The large drone is usually powered by a motor, but the motor loses efficiency as you shrink it. So, Chen says, “For an insect-sized drone, you need to look for alternatives.” The principal alternative until now has been employing a small, rigid actuator (执行器) built from new materials. Chen designed a more agile tiny drone using soft actuators instead of hard ones.......8.What can we know about the actuator designed by Chen?A.It weighs about six grams.B.It drives the insect-sized drone.C.It loses efficiency too much.D.It employs conventional materials.12.(湖北省孝感市重点高中协作体2023-2024学年高三试题)My husband and I always wanted to go to the Caribbean but didn’t know much about the islands or how we were going to afford it.

There were only a couple of sits available in that part of the world, but we tried our luck, sent a request, and to our surprise, landed a three-month job in Grenada, so our year was going to be taken up with Caribbean pet sits.......24.Why did the author do pet sitting?A.To cover travel expenses.B.To raise fund.C.To conserve the environment.D.To shoot beautiful beaches.13.(湖北省孝感市重点高中协作体2023-2024学年高三试题)Just like happiness and sadness, anxiety is part of everyone’s lived experience—but it’s not always tolerated as such. “People often spend too much time and effort trying to rid anxiety,” says Dr Joel Minden, a clinical psychologist. “I encourage them to remember that anxiety is a normal emotional response.”If you try to banish anxiety, all you’re doing is putting it more at the forefront of your mind. But if you accept anxiety as part of life, you can learn to relate to it with self-pity or even with humour. This is a cornerstone of acceptance and commitment therapy(ACT), which has been gaining clinical validation, including by the American Psychological Association. ACT guides people to see their unpleasant emotions as just feelings and to accept that parts of life are hard. Sufferers are encouraged to begin a dialogue with anxious thoughts, examining their causes while also keeping in mind their personal goals and values.......32.What may Dr Joel Minden agree about anxiety?A.It is often improperly treated.B.It should be seriously taken.C.It is easily-earned experience.D.It goes hand in hand with joy.。
