【題目】 The college schedule is very different from the traditional high school schedule. 1 In high school, you had to take the US History, which was offered every day at 10:00 a.m. In college, you’ll probably need to take a history class, but you could have 10 choices offered on different days and at different times.

2 For example, you will pick a course that will determine the types of classes you will specialize in. In high school, you have a set curriculum of classes you have to take across all subject areas. 3 During the first two years, you’ll take more general education classes. But during your junior and senior years, you’ll take fewer general education classes.

Another big difference you should be aware of is classes. Now, you’re in school from 7:30 a.m.-2:30 p.m., Monday through Friday. 4 In college, you might have a science class on Mondays and Fridays from 10:10-11:00 a.m. Perhaps you’ll have a Chinese class on Thursdays from 1:15-3:00 p.m.

5 If you go to a large university, your campus will be your home and might take up an entire town. You might see hundreds of students going out to bars every night. Many colleges are home both to academic and social clubs. In high school your stage is regional. In college, your stage is national-and sometimes global.

A.This will not be the case in college.

B.In college, think about your schedule as a pyramid.

C.Some things will appear similar, but many will be different.

D.Typically, there is a lot more flexibility with your college classes.

E.The differences will challenge your self-management as much as your abilities.

F.The atmosphere and social life in college are also different from those in high school.

G.The other cool thing is that you usually have more opportunities to explore your interests.

【解析】

本文是一篇說明文。文章主要介紹了美國大學(xué)生活和高中生活的幾點不同。

1

根據(jù)前文“The college schedule is very different from the traditional high school schedule.”可知,本段在講述大學(xué)的課程表與傳統(tǒng)的高中課程表的不同,因此設(shè)空句應(yīng)是對其進(jìn)行進(jìn)一步解釋。且結(jié)合后文“In high school, you had to take the US History, which was offered every day at 10:00 a.m. In college, you’ll probably need to take a history class, but you could have 10 choices offered on different days and at different times.( 在高中,你必須上美國歷史課,每天上午10點上。在大學(xué)里,你可能需要上一門歷史課,但是你可以在不同的時間和日子里有10個選擇。)”可知,具體講述了大學(xué)上課的靈活性和選擇性。因此設(shè)空句應(yīng)承接前文主題“the college schedule”,且呼應(yīng)后文提及的“靈活性”。選項D. Typically, there is a lot more flexibility with your college classes.( 通常,你的大學(xué)課程有更多的靈活性。)符合語境分析。故選D項。

2

設(shè)空句在段首,應(yīng)是本段主題句。根據(jù)后文舉例內(nèi)容“For example, you will pick a course that will determine the types of classes you will specialize in. In high school, you have a set curriculum of classes you have to take across all subject areas.( 比如說,你將會選擇一個你將要進(jìn)行專業(yè)學(xué)習(xí)的課程。在高中,你有一套課程,你必須參加所有學(xué)科領(lǐng)域的課程。)”可知,舉例內(nèi)容主要說明了大學(xué)課程允許個人選擇更傾向研究的科目。選項G. The other cool thing is that you usually have more opportunities to explore your interests.( 另一件很酷的事情是你通常有更多的機會去探索你的興趣。)中的interests與后文提及的“classes you will specialize in”相呼應(yīng),且符合前后文句意搭配。故選G項。

3

設(shè)空句在段中,應(yīng)起承前啟后的作用。因此設(shè)空句應(yīng)承接前文提及的話題“college classes”。根據(jù)后文“During the first two years, you’ll take more general education classes. But during your junior and senior years, you’ll take fewer general education classes.( 在前兩年,你將學(xué)習(xí)更多的普通教育課程。但是在你大三和大四的時候,你會少上一些普通教育課程。)”可知,后文在講述大學(xué)課程“由多到少”的安排,設(shè)空句應(yīng)對這樣設(shè)置的大學(xué)課程進(jìn)行總結(jié)。選項B. In college, think about your schedule as a pyramid.( 在大學(xué)里,把你的課程表想象成一個金字塔。)中“pyramid”合理概括了大學(xué)課程設(shè)置的特點,符合語境分析。故選B項。

4

設(shè)空在段中,應(yīng)是過渡句,起到承前啟后的作用。根據(jù)前文“Now, you’re in school from 7:30 a.m.-2:30 p.m., Monday through Friday.( 高中在校時間是從星期一到星期五,每天都是早上7:30到校、下午2:30放學(xué))”,后文“In college, you might have a science class on Mondays and Fridays from 10:10-11:00 a.m. Perhaps you’ll have a Chinese class on Thursdays from 1:15-3:00 p.m.( 在大學(xué),你可能星期一和星期五的上午10:1011點上自然課,也可能星期四的下午1:153點上中文課。)”,說明過渡句要呼應(yīng)前文的“高中時間”,也要過渡到“大學(xué)時間”,選項A. This will not be the case in college.( 在大學(xué)里就不是這樣了。)中的“this”呼應(yīng)前文的“高中時間”,且出現(xiàn)了“college”,句意表達(dá)上起到了過渡作用。故選A項。

5

設(shè)空在段首,為本段主題句。根據(jù)后文內(nèi)容“If you go to a large university, your campus will be your home and might take up an entire town. You might see hundreds of students going out to bars every night. Many colleges are home both to academic and social clubs. In high school your stage is regional. In college, your stage is national-and sometimes global.( 如果你上的是一所大型大學(xué),你的校園就是你的家,可能會占據(jù)整個城鎮(zhèn)。你可能每天晚上都看到成百上千的學(xué)生去酒吧。許多大學(xué)既是學(xué)術(shù)俱樂部又是社交俱樂部。在高中,你的階段是區(qū)域性的。在大學(xué)里,你的舞臺是全國性的,有時甚至是全球性的。)”描述的是大學(xué)校園、學(xué)生生活、學(xué)校的各種學(xué)術(shù)和社交俱樂部等。選項F. The atmosphere and social life in college are also different from those in high school.提及了大學(xué)的氛圍和社交生活也和高中不同,為本段主題句。故選F項。

七選五技巧之段首位置好判斷

假如設(shè)空句為段首句,它通常是段落主題句,認(rèn)真閱讀后文內(nèi)容,根據(jù)段落一致性原則,查找同義詞或其他相關(guān)的的詞,甚至原詞,推斷主題句。比如文章第5小題:

____5 __ If you go to a large university, your campus will be your home and might take up an entire town. You might see hundreds of students going out to bars every night. Many colleges are home both to academic and social clubs. In high school your stage is regional. In college, your stage is national-and sometimes global.

F. The atmosphere and social life in college are also different from those in high school.

本題設(shè)空句在段首,考查主題句?蘸竺婷枋龅氖谴髮W(xué)校園、學(xué)生生活、學(xué)校的各種學(xué)術(shù)和社交俱樂部等。推測主題句應(yīng)包含“college”,“social club”,“campus”等詞。選項F. The atmosphere and social life in college are also different from those in high school.符合推測分析。故選F項為答案。

Why Do Smart People Do Foolish Things?

We all probably know someone who is intelligent but does surprisingly stupid things. What does it mean to be smart or intelligent? Our everyday use of the term is meant to describe someone who is knowledgeable and makes wise decisions, but this definition is at odds with how intelligence is traditionally measured. The most widely known measure of intelligence is the intelligence quotient, more commonly known as the IQ test, which includes visuospatial puzzles, math problems, pattern recognition, vocabulary questions and visual searches.

The advantages of being intelligent are undeniable. Intelligent people are more likely to get better grades and go farther in school. They are more likely to be successful at work. And they are less likely to get into trouble (for example, commit crimes) as adolescents.

Given all the advantages of intelligence, though, you may be surprised to learn that it does not predict other life outcomes, such as well-being. You might imagine that doing well in school or at work might lead to greater life satisfaction, but several large-scale studies have failed to find evidence that IQ impacts life satisfaction or longevity (長壽). Most intelligence tests fail to assess the extent of rational thinking, such as real-world decision-making and our ability to interact well with others. This is, in other words, perhaps why “smart” people do “dumb” things.

The ability to think critically, on the other hand, has been associated with wellness and longevity. Though often confused with intelligence, critical thinking is not intelligence. Critical thinking is a collection of cognitive (認(rèn)知的) skills that allow us to think rationally (理性地) in a goal-orientated fashion and a disposition to use those skills when appropriate. Critical thinkers have self-confidence in their own abilities to reason. They possess great flexibility in requiring evidence to support their beliefs. Critical thinking means overcoming all kinds of cognitive biases (偏見).

Critical thinking predicts a wide range of life events. Researchers have found that critical thinkers experience fewer negative life events such as academic (“I forgot about an exam”), health (“I received HIV through unprotected sex”), legal (“I was arrested for driving under the influence”), interpersonal (“I cheated on my partner for more than a year”), financial (“I have over $5,000 of credit-card debt”), and so on.

Intelligence and improving intelligence are hot topics that receive a lot of attention. It is time for critical thinking to receive a little more of that attention. Reasoning and rationality more closely resemble what we mean when we say a person is smart rather than spatial skills and math ability. Furthermore, improving intelligence is difficult. Intelligence is largely determined by genetics. Critical thinking, though, can improve with training, and the benefits have been shown to continue over time. Anyone can improve their critical thinking skills. Doing so, we can say with certainty, is a smart thing to do.

Why Do Smart People Do Foolish Things?

Introduction

The defining term of intelligence in daily life 1largely from how it is traditionally measured.

The advantages of intelligence

●Intelligent people may have better academic and job 2.

●Intelligence may predict less trouble during adolescence.

3 for smart people doing foolish things

The importance of critical thinking

●Critical thinkers are more likely to be 6 in life and live longer.

●Critical thinkers are rational, self-confident, 7 and open-minded.

●Critical thinking is believed to be 8 with fewer negative life events.

Conclusion

We should 9 more on critical thinking than on intelligence, as intelligence is something, to a large extent, that one is 10 with while critical thinking can be trained and improved.

【題目】 Many people want to travel around the world and enjoy new cultures, especially the different festivals. There are festivals going on somewhere in the world every day of the year. These range from very large events which involve whole cities to local celebrations in tiny villages or neighborhoods of towns or cities. We have selected a few of the more unusual, colorful festivals from around the world. You can choose anyone you like best!

The Million Ringgit Charity Duck Race: Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

Thirteen years ago, Eric Schechter and his friends were brainstorming to find new ways of raising money for local charities when they came up with the idea of rubber duck races. The event, crazy as it may sound, involves racing "cool" rubber ducks down a local waterway and having members of the community "adopt" the ducks for a chance to win valuable donated prizes, possibly even $1 million bucks.

La Tomatina: Bunol, Spain

"The tomato battle is in honor of Saint Luis Beltran, the patron saint of Bunol. Residents and visitors take part in a tomato-throwing battle that decimates more than 88,000 pounds of tomatoes. This crazy event began with a serious aim as a symbolic protest against Franco. But the Tomatina is now celebrated as an amusing way to end the summer."

Mighty Mud Mania: Scottsdale, Arizona, USA

"Children's dreams really do come true in the City of Scottsdale. Children aged 1 to 13, get to participate in a mud race to end all mud races. During the running of the Mighty Mud Obstacle(泥坑) course, several mud pits strategically placed, provide wet and really dirty obstacles as kids compete for the fastest time in each heat. There are also mud puddle pools for the tiny tots, and a mini mud course for those six and younger. In addition, Mighty Mudway features water and mud games. There are also water slides, sandcastle buildings and fun for all ages. Moms and dads, remember to send your kids out with old clothes and shoes. And have no fear, Rural Metro Fire Department is on hand to offer plenty of water for the muddy children."

Canberra Sled Dog Classic: Canberra, Australian Capital Territory, Australia

Dog sledding is one of the fastest growing sports on the east coast of Australia. As there's no snow (the trail is earth and sand and is smooth and wide with a few hills and turns), the sleds have wheels instead of runners, but the excitement is the same.

1Which of the following means the summer is over?

A.Mighty Mud Mania.B.La Tomatina.

C.Canberra Sled Dog Classic.D.The Million Ringgit Charity Duck Race.

2What can you enjoy in all the four festivals mentioned?

We touch our faces all the time, and it had never seemed to be a big problem – until COVID-19 arrived. 1 (touch) our faces – the “T-zone” of our eyes, nose and mouth in particular – can mean giving ourselves the 2 (dead) virus. This is why 3 (organization) like the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) have suggested that we avoid touching our faces. “Just stop this simple behavior,” William Sawyer, founder of Henry the Hand, a nonprofit organization that promotes hand hygiene(衛(wèi)生), 4(tell) The Washington Post. “It’s the one behavior 5 would be better than any vaccine ever created.”

Yet, stopping this “simple” behavior might be harder than you think because it’s already hardwired(固有的) into our system. Some face touching is automatic – like when there is 6 itch on your nose, you’ll scratch it without thinking. Moreover, face-touching is subconscious, 7 means it’s very hard to change because you don’t even know you’re doing it. 8you’re not alone. In a 2015 study, where a group of medical students 9 (film) in class, it was found that they touched their faces an average of 23 times an hour – with 44 percent of the touches being in the “T-zones”. That was particularly surprising since medical students were supposed 10(know) better. Since it’s so hard to shake the habit, maybe the easiest way is to wash our hands more often. This way, we can be sure that our hands are free from the novel coronavirus.
