2推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Open-airjazz,locally-grownvegetables,Focacciabread,goutcheese,andNarcantrainingallcompetedagainstarainstormlastTuesdayatWestsideFarmersMarket’sannualCollegeNight.(上周二,在西区农贸市场一年一度的大学之夜,露天爵士乐、当地种植的蔬菜、佛卡夏面包、痛风奶酪和纳尔康训练都同暴风雨展开了竞争)”以及文章第四段“Thecommunitygroupsofferinginformationwerediversetoo.SNAP-Ednutritionandbenefitseducatorsalsoranatable.(提供信息的社区团体也是多样化的)”以及“SNAP-Ednutritionandbenefitseducatorsalsoranatable.(SNAP-Ed的营养和福利教育工作者也摆了一张桌子)”及文章倒数第二段“Theactivitiesofthestationswasscoredbylivemusic.TheUniversity’sMidnightRamblersperformed,andalocaljazzbandplayedawayastherainshowersstartedrollingin.(电台的活动由现场音乐配乐。大学的午夜漫步者(MidnightRamblers)进行了表演,当地的一支爵士乐队在倾盆大雨中继续演奏)”可知,大学之夜的特点是忙碌的和充满节日气氛的。故选B项。【7题详解】主旨大意题。根据文章最后一段“FarrellhopedthattheCollegeNightpromotionwouldhelpmakestudentsmorecomfortablecrossingthebridgeintotheRochestercommunity.“Welovecollegestudents,andwekeepencouragingthemthatalltheyhavetodoisgoacrossthebridge.”(Farrell希望“大学之夜”的促销活动能帮助学生们更轻松地穿过大桥进入罗切斯特社区。“我们爱大学生,我们一直鼓励他们,他们所要做的就是穿过这座桥。”)”以及文章前面几段的内容可知,文章主要围绕着大学之夜的促销活动来展开,大学之夜将大学生与当地的社区联系在一起,架起了两者之间联系的桥梁。由此可知,C项CollegeNightbridgesuniversityandcommunity概括文章内容,作为标题最为合适。故选C项。江苏省连云港市2022-2023学年高三上学期期中调研MaggiePerkinshadbeenworkingasateacherinGeorgiafornearlyfiveyearsbeforeshedecidedto“quietquit”herjob.Thedecisiondidn’tmeanleavingherposition,butratherlimitingherworktohercontract(合约)hours.Nothingmore,nothingless.“IfIdidn’tquietquitmyteachingjob,Iwouldburnout,”shesays.LikePerkins,“quietquitters”onTikTokdefendtheirchoicetotakeastepbackfromwork,butcompanymanagersandworkplaceexpertsarguethatalthoughdoinglessmightfeelgoodintheshortterm,itcouldharmyourcareer—andyourcompany—inthelongrun.InthewakeoftheglobalpandemicandtheGreatResignation,employeesbegantoreimaginewhatworkcouldlooklike.Gallup’sStateoftheGlobalWorkplacereportinJunefoundjob

4【导语】这是一篇说明文。指出现在员工工作的一个状态:“安静地辞职”,这不是真正的辞职,而是放弃努力进取的想法,只为完成职责。【24题详解】推理判断题。根据第一段第一句“MaggiePerkinshadbeenworkingasateacherinGeorgiafornearlyfiveyearsbeforeshedecidedto“quietquit”herjob.(MaggiePerkins在乔治亚州当了将近五年的老师,之后她决定“安静地辞掉”她的工作。)”可知第一段以玛吉·帕金斯为例,提出“安静的辞职者”这一概念,根据第二段第一句“LikePerkins,“quietquitters”onTikTokdefendtheirchoicetotakeastepbackfromwork(和MaggiePerkins一样,抖音上的“安静的辞职者”也为他们选择从工作中后退一步进行辩护)”可知第二段延续第一段提出的概念进一步讨论,即第一段为举出实例。故选A项。【25题详解】细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句“Disengagedworkerscosttheglobaleconomyanestimated$7.8trillioninlostproductivityandaneconomicslowdown.(闲散的员工使全球经济损失了约7.8万亿美元的生产力和经济放缓。)”可知“安静地辞职”这一行为导致员工生产力下降,经济发展后退。故选C项。【26题详解】推理判断题题。根据第四段二三句“GergoVari,CEOofjobboardplatformLensa,advocatesanalternativetoquietquitting:“loudlypersisting”.Thatis,empoweringemployeestospeakupabouthowtheirorganizationcanservetheirgoals.(求职平台Lensa的首席执行官GergoVari提倡一种替代“安静地辞职”的方法:“大声坚持”。也就是说,允许员工向他们的组织明确表态,组织要如何满足他们的目标。)”可知GergoVari建议员工能够在公司管理方面发声,说出自己的看法。故选D项。【27题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段第一句“Someworkers,though,saythatcompanies’concernsabout“quietquitting”areunfounded.(不过,一些员工表示,公司对“安静地辞职”的担忧是没有根据的。)”可知,这些员工认为公司不应该担忧这种现象,正常的工作本该如此。且倒数第二句“It’snegativeanddangerousthatweregardahealthywork-lifebalanceasquitting(我们将保持工作与生活之间健康的平衡视为辞职,这是消极和危险的)”可知ShiniKo就是最后一段认为公司的担忧毫无依据、不合理的代表之一,即ShiniKo认为公司的担忧不合理。故选A项。辽宁省沈阳市2022-2023学年高三上学期期中考试

6【导语】这是一篇记叙文。作者讲述了自己多年恐惧在公共场合讲话,无法克服障碍,终于在最近科学和科研机构由于疫情原因受到不公平攻击时,克服恐惧,为科学及科学工作者勇敢发声,做到了以前不可能做到的事情。【4题详解】词句猜测题。根据第一段中“Duringcollegeandatmyfirstfewjobs,IwouldgetridiculouslynervouswhenIhadtogiveapresentationorleadameeting.(在大学期间和我最初的几份工作中,当我必须做报告或主持会议时,我会感到异常紧张。)”可知作者在大学期间和参加工作之初,都是不敢当众说话的态度,但是所以一到开会或者需要做公开演讲的时候就会紧张。由此可以推断当众公开讲话是使作者“烦恼甚至恼火的的事”。故选B项。【5题详解】推理判断题。根据第二段中“Ateverymeeting,wewereratedandforcedtocompetewithotherspeakersforanaward.YouwouldthinkthatIwouldwalkawayfromtheseexperiencesasapolishedspeaker,butnothingseemedtowork(在每次会议上,我们都被迫与其他演讲者竞争奖项。你可能会认为我在经历这些之后会成为一名出色的演说家,但这些经历似乎都不起作用)”可知,作者在Toastmasters练习并参加很多比赛,但是仍然没有成为一个娴熟的演讲者,仍然无法克服障碍,还是腼腆无法表达。故选C项。【6题详解】细节理解题。根据第三段中“Itwasn'tuntilrecently,whenscienceandscientificinstitutionswerebeingattackedforunfairreasonsduringthepandemic,thatIdecidedImustspeakout.(直到最近,当科学和科学机构在疫情大流行期间受到不公平的理由的攻击帮助时,我才决定我必须发声)”可知,因为自己所在国家的科学和科研机构受到言论攻击,这使作者要挺身而出捍卫科学,不能任由人们攻击科学。故选D项。【7题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Atalmostforty,IlearnedthatpassioncansetoffaflameinmyhearttodothingsIneverdreamedpossible.Thedarknessthatledtomyspeechissuretoleadtonewopportunitiesandadventures.(在将近四十岁的时候,我明白了激情可以点燃我心中的火焰,去做我从未梦想过的事情。导致我演讲的黑暗一定会带来新的机会和冒险)”可知,作者意识到激情能够燃烧内心的火焰,然自己做到曾经不可能完成的事情。故选D项。四川省绵阳市2022-2023学年高三上学期第一次诊断

13细节理解题。根据文章第一段中“Andthroughsomecombinationofevents,thatgloriousoakseemedtohavedroppedallofitsuncountableleavesonasinglewindyday.(经过种种事件的综合,那棵辉煌的橡树似乎在一个刮风的日子里,把它无数的叶子都掉光了。)”可知,今年的不寻常之处是邻居的大树在一天之内掉光了所有的叶子。故选D。【5题详解】词句猜测题。根据第二段的“thesuddenlybarebranchesthatwatchedquietlyoverourneighborhood,startingitsrestfulseasonbeforesettingspringleafbuds(突然光秃秃的树枝静静地注视着我们的社区,开始了春天嫩芽之前的宁静季节)”可知,作者惊叹于叶落之后大树的树干和树枝之美,因此“azingofawe”的意思是“惊叹”,和amazement意思相近,故选D。【6题详解】推理判断题。根据第三段的“Novemberisthefallenleaf,butitisalsoawiderhorizonmoreclearlyseen.Itisthedistanthillsoncemoreinsight,andtheenduringconstellationsabovethemonceagain.(十一月是落叶,但它也更广阔的视野更清晰地看到。远处的群山又出现在眼前,群山上方经久不衰的星座又出现在眼前。)”可知,这句话描述的是十一月的美景,因此在第三段引用了HalBorland所写的句子的目的是表达作者对落叶季节的感受。故选C。【7题详解】主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是文章最后一段“WhenIlayinthatpileofdry,crispleavesandlookedupintotheoaktreeacrossthestreet,Ifeltaclarityandpeacethatcomesalongwiththeinconvenientlyearlysunsetsandchillytemperaturesofthetransitionfromfallintowinter.IcouldstilladmirethetreeasIhadinspringandsummer,butIcouldalsoseethroughit,beyondit,tothebigskythatblanketsusall.(当我躺在那堆又干又脆的树叶上,抬头望着街对面的橡树时,我感到了一种清澈与平静,这是伴随着令人不安的早日落和秋冬交替期间的寒冷气温而来的。我仍然可以像春天和夏天那样欣赏这棵树,但我也可以透过它,越过它,看到覆盖我们所有人的广阔天空。)”可知,作者惊叹于叶落之后大树的树干和树枝之美,抒发了对这个季节的赞美之情。因此最好的题目是C选项“TheBeautyofaNewly-bareTree.(刚变得光秃秃的树的美丽。)”,故选C。湖南省郴州市2022-2023学年高三上学期第一次教学质量监测ShawaneePatrickispassionateaboutgivingeveryonetheabilitytowalkascomfortablyandeffectivelyaspossiblethroughtheuseofwalkingassistivedevices,suchasprosthetics(假肢)andorthotics.APh.D.studentintheJ.Mikewalker66DepartmentofMechanicalEngineeringatTexasA&MUniversity.Patrick

17community.(你永远不知道你会发现什么。你会在社区中有一种共享空间的感觉)”可知,McKellar的项目受欢迎可能是因为他能够把不同圈子的人联系起来,构成一种基于社区的联系。故选C项。江西省2022-2023学年高三上学期期中联考EdwardO.WilsonwhodiedonDec.26,2021attheageof92,wasanextraordinaryscholarineverysenseoftheword.BythetimeImethimin1982,he’dmadegreatcontributionstoscience.Forexample,hediscoveredthechemicalmeansbywhichantscommunicate.Heworkedouttheimportanceofthehabitatsizeandpositioninprotectinganimals.In1982Icautiouslysatdownnexttothegreatmanduringabreakatasmallconferenceonsocialinsects.Heturned,extendedhishandandsaid,“Hi,I’mEdWilson.Idon’tbelievewe’vemet.”Thenwetalkeduntilitwastimetogetbacktothemeeting.ThreehourslaterIapproachedhimagain.Heturned,extendedhishandandsaid,“Hi,I’mEdWilson.Idon’tbelievewe’vemet”Wilsonforgotmebutremainedfriendly.Iwasfreshoutofgraduateschool,whileWilsonwasalreadyveryfamous.Yethedidn’thesitatetoextendhishandtome,notoncebuttwice.MyworkstudyingnativeplantsandinsectswasinspiredbyWilson’sdescriptionsofbiodiversity.His1992book,TheDiversityofLife,becamethebasisforaneventualturninmycareerpath.ThroughouthiscareerWilsoncommunicatedtheurgentneedtopreservethenaturalworld.AsIseeit,theonlywaytorealizeWilson’slifelongwishistoburytheideathathumansarehereandnatureissomeplaceelse.Providingapracticalplanforprotectingtheearthhasbeenmygoalforthelast20years,andI’mhonoredthatitmixeswithWilson’sthought.4.WhendidtheauthormeetWilsonforthefirsttime?A.WhentheauthorwasdoingbusinessB.WhentheauthorwasingraduateschoolC.WhentheauthorattendedasmallconferenceD.Whentheauthorwasstudyingnativeplants.5.WhatdidtheauthorprobablythinkofWilsonaftertheymet?A.CleverB.DeterminedC.Creative.D.Kind6.Whatdoweknowabouttheauthor?A.HeregularlyhaddiscussionswithWilsonB.HisresearchwasinfluencedbyWilsonC.HewroteabookundertheguidanceofWilson.D.HisopinionaboutnaturewasdifferentfromWilson’s7.WhatdoestheauthorthinkthewaytorealizeWilson’slifelongwishis?A.Stayingawayfromnature.B.Learningtocoexistwithnature.C.Conductingfutureresearch.D.Learningaboutallkindsofanimals【答案】4.C5.D6.B7.B

21did.(“如果有一个孩子不得不在那个十字路口过马路,却不知道司机是否正朝他过来,那该怎么办?”斯特林和他的妈妈想。所以他们决定把统计数据交给警察局。这就是他们所做的)”可推知,斯特林要把他的研究成果交给警方,是担心其他过马路孩子的安全,向警方求助。故选C项。【44题详解】推理判断题。根据第五段中OnFebruary19,McMahonsurprisedSterlingathisschoolandgavehimaspecialawardforhistrafficstudy.“It’snoteverydaythatwegettorecognizeastudentforgoingaboveandbeyondanddoingunbelievablethingforhiscommunity.”McMahonsaid.(2月19日,麦克马洪在学校给斯特林一个惊喜,给他颁发了交通研究特别奖。麦克马洪说:“并不是每天我们都会因为一个学生超越了自己,为他的社区做了不可思议的事情认可一个学生。”)”可知,约翰·麦克马洪话中表达了希望更多的学生帮助建立他们的社区。故选C项。【45题详解】推理判断题。根据全文,我们知道斯特林通过调查学校汽车站附近的十字路口的停车标志确实是一个问题,之后把数据交给了警察局,再根据倒数第二段“PolicearekeepingamuchclosereyeontheintersectionsoIthinkitisnowamuchsaferintersection—andclearly,amuchsaferbusstopthanitusedtobe.(警方正在密切关注这个十字路口,所以我认为现在这个十字路口更加安全了—很明显,这个公交车站也比以前更安全了)”以及最后一段“ForSterling,it’snotjustaboutprotectinghimselffromgettinghurtinacarcrash.It’saboutprotectingotherkids,too.“Maybewecoulddosomethingtostopthosecrashes,andsavesomelives,”Sterlingsaid.(对于斯特林来说,这不仅仅是为了保护自己免受车祸的伤害。这也是为了保护其他孩子。斯特林说:“也许我们可以做些什么来阻止这些碰撞,挽救一些生命。”)”可推知,从这篇文章中我们知道斯特林通过做一些小事而有所不同。故选A项。
