      技能专区:冲刺备考名师提醒,洞悉高考命题规律,提供高效提分干货
      一、阅读理解记叙文细节理解题居多,落实“定位原文”和“同义替换”。
      二、阅读理解记叙文重视首尾段作用,尤其是标题概括题和写作意图题。
      三、猜词词义题注意运用“代入法”和“排除法”从逻辑性和褒贬性出发。
      四、文章寓意题注意选项字面意思和言外之意与文章主旨相结合,去伪存真。
      五、性格描述题注意原文定位,找到相关动词或形容词描述,进而确定最佳答案。
      六、标题概括题既要注意文章线索“点睛”作用,还要注意首尾段呼应,尤其是
      尾段主旨升华。另外,记叙文标题兼具概括性、新颖性和针对性。
      七、落实“题干+原文+选项”三对照,重视原文与选项“同义转换”命题技巧。
      六、规范训练目标:做标记,留痕迹;零失误;限时7分钟/每篇。
      七、解题策略:
      一把钥匙开一把锁。要解答好记叙文阅读理解题,就应该有一套针对性强的方法和技巧。下面是我们在阅读教学中积累下来的一点心得体会,希望能对大家有所帮助。
      ☛顺藤摸瓜:
      记叙文中有大量的事件发展过程中的细节,包括记叙文的5W(what, wh, when, where, why)要素。因此我们作答细节题的时候,一般只需要由前到后,从上到下,一题一题地做就可以了。
      ☛左顾右盼
      在做题过程中,需要抓住题干中的关键词语,然后到文中准确地找到与之相关的语句,或是疑似语句的位置,接着去左顾,或右盼,在前句或后句寻找线索。
      ☛刨根问底
      主旨大意题或推理判断题等不可被题干的表象所迷惑,要像剥洋葱一样,一层一层地剥;要在文前文后去查找,在字里行间里去寻觅。有时还少不了借助自己的生活经验和常理来体会这言外之意。
      ☛拨云见日
      每年的高考阅读题中,特别是记叙文的阅读题,都会出现一至两道词义猜测题。这时,你不仅需要"左顾右盼",还需要在几句话,一个段落,乃至整篇文章的字里行间中快速搜寻,看看前面、后面都发生了些什么;反复琢磨人物、事物,或者人物与事物之间的内在联系,才可能在最后拨开团团迷雾,从四个选项中选出正确答案。
      ☛一锤定音
      有时记叙文最后一题需要选定标题,颇有难度。既要注意文章反复出现的关键词(key wrds),还应注意文章的主旨或隐含意义。实在有困难的话,还可以用排除法。从历年高考统计数据来看,记叙文标题可以是以下情况:短语型;句子型;问句型等。

      真题演练01(2024·北京·高考真题)When I was a little girl, I liked drawing, freely and jyusly making marks n the walls at hme. In primary schl, I learned t write using chalks.

Thugh these new friends were abstract painters using il paints, r were printmakers r sculptrs, I tk il painting as the tab (禁忌) high frm I wasn’t allwed t practice.

It was a frm f energy, giving me back smething I’d lst. Accrdingly, I started by experimenting with water clurs. Finally, I bught sme il paints.
      Althugh I have enjyed breaking my decades-lng tab abut wrking with il paints, I have discvered I nw prefer chalks and ink. I let my line drawings turn int cartns I send t friends. It all feels free and easy. Un-anxius. This time arund, I can accept my limitatins but keep ging.
      Becming a successful painter calls fr being reslute. I realised I was always afraid f wanting t much. That dream reminded me that thse fears and desires culd encurage me t take risks and make experiments.

      真题演练02(2023·北京·高考真题)Sitting in the garden fr my friend’s birthday. I felt a buzz (振动) in my pcket. My heart raced when I saw the email sender’s name. The email started ff: “Dear Mr Green, thank yu fr yur interest” and “the review prcess tk lnger than expected.” It ended with “We are srry t infrm yu…” and my visin blurred (模糊). The psitin—measuring sil quality in the Sahara Desert as part f an undergraduate research prgramme — had felt like the answer I had spent years lking fr.
      I had put s much time and emtinal energy int applying, and I thught the rejectin meant the end f the rad fr my science career.
      S I was shcked when, nt lng after the email, Prfessr Mary Devn, wh was running the prgramme, invited me t bserve the wrk being dne in her lab. I jumped at the chance, and a few weeks later I was equally shcked—and verjyed—when she invited me t talk with her abut ptential prjects I culd pursue in her lab. What she prpsed didn’t seem as exciting as the riginal prject I had applied t, but I was ging t give it my all.
      I fund myself wrking with a rbtics prfessr n techniques fr cllecting data frm the desert remtely. That prject, which I culd cmplete frm my sfa instead f in the burning heat f the desert, nt nly survived the lckdwn but wrked where traditinal methds didn’t. In the end, I had a new scientific interest t pursue.
      When I applied t graduate schl, I fund three prgrammes prmising t allw me t fllw my desired research directin. And I applied with the same anxius excitement as befre. When I was rejected frm ne that had seemed like a perfect fit, it was undubtedly difficult. But this time I had the perspective (视角) t keep it frm sending me int panic. It helped that in the end I was accepted int ne f the ther prgrammes I was als excited abut.
      Rather than setting plans in stne, I’ve learned that smetimes I need t take the pprtunities that are ffered, even if they dn’t sund perfect at the time, and make the mst f them.
      1. Hw did the authr feel upn seeing the email sender’s name?
      A. Anxius.B. Angry.C. Surprised.D. Settled.
      2. After talking with Prfessr Devn, the authr decided t ________.
      A. criticise the review prcessB. stay lnger in the Sahara Desert
      C. apply t the riginal prject againD. put his heart and sul int the lab wrk
      3. Accrding t the authr, the prject with the rbtics prfessr was ________.
      A. demandingB. inspiringC. misleadingD. amusing
      4. What can we learn frm this passage?
      A. An invitatin is a reputatin.B. An innvatin is a reslutin.
      C. A rejectin can be a redirectin.D. A reflectin can be a restrictin.
      1. A 2. D 3. B 4. C
      【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章中作者结合自己被拒绝后得到了更好的职业发展机会,告诉我们最初的拒绝给予了更好的方向。
      1. 推理判断题。根据第一段“My heart raced when I saw the email sender’s name. The email started ff: “Dear Mr Green, thank yu fr yur interest” and “the review prcess tk lnger than expected.” It ended with “We are srry t infrm yu…”and my visin blurred (模糊). (当我看到邮件发件人的名字时,我的心跳加速了。这封邮件是这样开头的:“亲爱的格林先生,感谢您的关注”,“审核过程比预期的要长。”信的结尾是“我们很抱歉地通知你……”,我的视线模糊了)”可知,收到的是被拒绝的邮件,所以推测作者在看到电子邮件发件人的名字时感到焦虑。故选A。
      2. 细节理解题。根据第三段“S I was shcked when, nt lng after the email, Prfessr Mary Devn, wh was running the prgramme, invited me t bserve the wrk being dne in her lab. I jumped at the chance, and a few weeks later I was equally shcked—and verjyed—when she invited me t talk with her abut ptential prjects I culd pursue in her lab. What she prpsed didn’t seem as exciting as the riginal prject I had applied t, but I was ging t give it my all. (因此,当我收到这封邮件后不久,负责这个项目的玛丽·德文教授邀请我去她的实验室观察正在进行的工作时,我感到非常震惊。我欣然接受了这个机会,几周后,当她邀请我和她谈谈我可以在她的实验室里从事的潜在项目时,我同样感到震惊——同时也是欣喜若狂。她提出的建议似乎没有我最初申请的项目那么令人兴奋,但我打算全力以赴)”可知,与德文教授交谈后,作者决定全心全意地投入实验室工作。故选D。
      3. 推理判断题。根据第四段“I fund myself wrking with a rbtics prfessr n techniques fr cllecting data frm the desert remtely. That prject, which I culd cmplete frm my sfa instead f in the burning heat f the desert, nt nly survived the lckdwn but wrked where traditinal methds didn’t. In the end, I had a new scientific interest t pursue. (我发现自己和一个机器人教授一起研究从沙漠中远程收集数据的技术。我可以在沙发上完成这个项目,而不是在沙漠的酷热中完成,它不仅在封锁期间幸存下来,而且在传统方法不奏效的地方也奏效了。最后,我有了新的科学兴趣去追求)”可推知,机器人学教授的项目很鼓舞人心。故选B。
      4. 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Rather than setting plans in stne, I’ve learned that smetimes I need t take the pprtunities that are ffered, even if they dn’t sund perfect at the time, and make the mst f them. (我明白了有时候我需要抓住提供的机会,即使这些机会在当时听起来并不完美,也要充分利用,而不是一成不变地制定计划)”结合文章中作者结合自己被拒绝后得到了更好的职业发展机会,告诉我们最初的拒绝给予了更好的方向。故C选项“拒绝可以是重定向”最符合文章的主旨。故选C。

      真题演练05(2020·北京·高考真题)Fr the past five years, Paula Smith, a histrian f science, has devted herself t re-creating lng-frgtten techniques. While ding research fr her new bk, she came acrss a 16th-century French manuscript(手稿)cnsisting f nearly 1,000 sets f instructins, cvering subjects frm tl making t finding the best sand.
      The authr's intentin remains as mysterius(神秘)as his name; he may have been simply taking ntes fr his wn recrds. But Smith was struck mainly by the fact that she didn't truly grasp any f the skills the authr described. "Yu simply can't get an understanding f that handwrk by reading abut it," she says.
      Thugh Smith did get her hands n the best sand, ding things the ld-fashined way isn't just abut playing arund with French mud. Recnstructing the wrk f the craftsmen(工匠)wh lived centuries ag can reveal hw they viewed the wrld, what bjects filled their hmes, and what went n in the wrkshps that prduced them. It can even help slve present-day prblems: In 2015, scientists discvered that a 10th-century English medicine fr eve prblems culd kill a drug-resistant virus.
      The wrk has als brught insights fr museums, Smith says. One must knw hw an bject was made in rder t preserve it. What's mre, recnstructins might be the nly way t knw what treasures lked like befre time wre them dwn. Schlars have seen this idea in practice with ancient Greek and Rman statues. These sculptures were painted a rainbw f striking clurs. We can't appreciate these kinds f details withut seeing wrks f art as they riginally appeared-smething Smith believes yu can d nly when yu have a rad map.
      Smith has put the manuscript's ideas int practice. Her final gal is t link the wrlds f art and science back tgether: She believes that bringing the ld recipes t life can help develp a kind f learning that highlights experimentatin, teamwrk, and prblem slving.

      【分析】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述科学家Paula Smith致力于对古代手工技能的研究,认为科学家如果能够把古代的手工技能和现代的科学方法结合起来,就能够创造更大成就。
      13. 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“But Smith was struck mainly by the fact that she didn't truly grasp any f the skills the authr described. "Yu simply can't get an understanding f that handwrk by reading abut it," she says.” 让史密斯震惊的主要是,她并没有真正掌握作者所描述的任何技能。她说:“你根本无法通过阅读来了解这些手工作品。” 由此可知读完这份法国手稿,这种手工技能让史密斯感到震惊,故选D。
      14. 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Recnstructing the wrk f the craftsmen(工匠)wh lived centuries ag can reveal hw they viewed the wrld, what bjects filled their hmes, ” 重建几个世纪前工匠的作品,可以揭示他们如何看待世界,他们的家里有什么物件。由此可知,重建工作主要是为了了解工匠。故选B。
      15. 推理判断题。根据文章第四段“The wrk has als brught insights fr museums, Smith says. One must knw hw n bject was made in rder t preserve it. What's mre, recnstructins might be the nly way t knw what treasures lked like befre time wre them dwn.” 史密斯说,这项工作也给博物馆带来了深刻的见解。为了保存它,一个人必须知道一件物品是如何制成的。更重要的是,重建可能是唯一的方法,以了解宝藏磨损之前的样子。因此可知,博物馆要想很好保存物品,必须要知道这件物品是如何制成的,也是在强调手工技能的价值,故选D。
      16. 主旨大意题。根据文章最后一段“If we can rediscver the values f hands-n experience and craftwrk, Smith says, we can marry the best f ur mdern insights with the handiness f ur ancestrs. ”史密斯说,如果我们能重新发现实践经验和工艺的价值,我们就能将现代的最好见解与我们祖先的灵巧结合起来。由此可知本文的中心思想就在于如果科学家能把古代的手工技巧同现代的理论结合起来,就能够获得更多的成就。C选项Craftsmanship Makes Better Scientists工艺造就了更好的科学家,符合文章主题,适合做标题,故选C。
      【点睛】标题猜测题。属于主旨大意题的一种,标题应位于文章之首,概括文章内容,点明文章主题。它可以是单词,短语,或句子。确定文章标题,第一,标题要与主题密切相关;其次,看标题是否能概括全文内容,不能只概括短文中的某些事实或细节;第三,标题范围不应太大或太小;最后,标题应新颖,概括性强并且精炼。小题4中C选项概括文中主旨大意,与主题密切相关,故选C。

Indeed, my limb (手臂) difference culd have been a disaster if it hadn’t been fr what happened next. A nurse placed me in my mther’s arms and instructed, “Yu will take her hme. Yu will lve her and treat her as nrmal.”
      That is exactly what happened. I played sprts, acted in theater, excelled in schl and had playdates with friends. While I did get sme stares and “plite” questins abut my disability, I was lucky because I wasn’t made fun f fr it.
      Hwever, that fact that I was different hit me hard my first day f high schl. I was 13, an age when kids are already very self-cnscius and the need t fit in is intensified.

      When I was an undergraduate student studying eclgy, I was used t discvering verall trends in large amunts f data. The thught f getting my hands dirty in the field never seemed interesting t me. I saw it as a bring and repetitive task. But I knew ptential graduate schls wuld likely view my lack f field experience as a hle in my applicatin letter. My mther als thught I shuld wrk fr a few years t explre my interests befre pursuing further educatin. S I decided t apply fr field-based summer psitins after graduatin.
      After landing a jb assessing the sage gruse habitat in Utah, I fund myself in the cmpany f Sherel, a 75-year-ld btanist and the leader f ur field crew. On the very first day f the fieldwrk, I nticed a special plant n the field. “Wnderful! Lks like yu’ve gt a Mahnia repens,” Sherel shuted excitedly. I gently tuched the plant with yellw flwers by my feet, “This ne here? Hw can yu tell it’s a Mahnia?” He paused briefly t admire the plant and then began his energetic descriptin f the plant’s typical features. That evening, while we were watching the sunset tgether, I texted my childhd friend. “Day I was actually kind f fun,” I started, “but we’ll see hw lng it takes befre I get bred frm just identifying plants in the field all day.”
      But as the weeks f fieldwrk rlled by, the bredm I had expected never arrived. I came hme frm the field each night with sre legs and a sunburned neck, excited by the day’s finds. By picking Sherel’s brain abut different species f animals and plants, I discvered field days are abut much mre than identificatin. Each day is an pprtunity t learn a little bit mre. When the summer was ver, I fund myself in anther field jb, this time surveying frest in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula.
      I’m nw a third-year Ph. D.student in eclgy. Fieldwrk may be buggy, wet, and physically demanding, but wrking with thers helps keep spirits high and the physical activity helps me stay sharp. And it cnstantly reminds me that any task can present an pprtunity t learn — as lng as I am pen t it.

My mther als thught I shuld wrk fr a few years t explre my interests befre pursuing further educatin. (但我知道潜在的研究生院可能会认为我缺乏实地经验会是我申请信中的一个漏洞。我母亲也认为我应该工作几年,探索自己的兴趣,然后再继续深造)”可知,作者虽是一名研究生态学的本科生,但没有实地经验,这于他申请研究院是不利的,为了提升自己的申请信,作者才参加犹他州的实地研究。故选C项。
      29.细节理解题。由第二段中“On the very first day f the fieldwrk, I nticed a special plant n the field. “Wnderful! Lks like yu’ve gt a Mahnia repens,” Sherel shuted excitedly. (在实地考察的第一天,我注意到田野上有一种特殊的植物。“太棒了!看起来你得到了一株野Mahnia repens (小檗科),”Sherel兴奋地喊道)”可知,在犹他州实地考察的第一天,作者发现了一株Mahnia repens (小檗科)。故选D项。

Yu can enjy yurself here.” Since I left Japan, I started my jurney in China. These have been my first thughts n my time here in China.
      In February 2022, I began learning Chinese. Almst a year later, I fund myself in Beijing, the capital f China. Befre cming here, I had attended Chinese classes, and I culd sense my prgress in the language. As yu might expect, studying fr just ne year wasn’t enugh t say I was fluent in Chinese, and t be hnest, I’m nt there yet. But full skills in the language are nt necessary t enjy many attractins f life in China.
      The ne thing that truly makes me feel cmfrtable and less lnely is making friends and jining in cnversatins. At Tsinghua University, where I studied in China, I made friends with many Chinese yung peple and enjyed spending time with them fr meals and ther activities. They wuld ften ask me t hang ut tgether and g t KTV, which was a ppular frm amng Chinese yuth.
      During breaks frm study, I ften started travelling acrss China. I’ve visited cities like Shanghai, Chngqing and Changsha. Althugh I have experienced travelling n vernight trains fr ver 12 hurs several times and visited unfamiliar cities, I never feel fearful r unwelcme as a freigner. Chinese peple are warm and welcming t freigners, and eager t jin in cnversatins.
      I nce jined in cmmunity activities in Nrthwest China’s Gansu prvince t gain a deeper understanding f China’s cuntryside areas and help the develpment f lcal cmmunities and educatin. As a vlunteer teacher at a lcal schl, I shared traditinal Japanese culture such as pp music and languages with the students. Since Japanese language came frm Chinese, they are similar smehw.

      (23-24高二上·北京朝阳·期末)My Day f N Plastic
      Since its inventin, plastic has affected every aspect f ur lives. It has made pssible thusands f cnveniences, but it has cme with dwnsides, especially fr the envirnment. In a 24-hur experiment, I tried t live withut it t see what plastic stuff we can’t d withut and what we may be able t give up.
      At the start f my n-plastic day, I made my way tward the bathrm, nly t stp myself befre I went in. “Culd yu pen the dr fr me?” I asked my wife. “The handle is plastic.” She pened it fr me, letting ut a “this is ging t be a lng day” sigh (叹气).
      My mrning rutine was a headache. I culdn’t use my tthpaste, tthbrush, shamp r sap, all f which were made f plastic r put in plastic cntainers. Getting dressed was als a challenge, given that s many clthing items include plastic.
      When I went ut, I brught alng tw glass cntainers and clth bags f varius sizes. I walked t a sandwich shp. “Can yu make the salad in this glass cntainer?” I asked. The manager said OK but then rejected my request t use my steel spn.
      After lunch, I tk the subway t Central Park, which scred me mre vilatins (违规), since I need a MetrCard and the trains themselves have plastic parts. But at least I didn’t sit in ne f thse plastic seats.

      “Yu can drive yurself crazy,” she said, “but it’s nt abut perfectin. It’s abut prgress.” Believe it r nt, individual behavir matters. It adds up. “Remember,” she cntinued, “it’s nt abut plastic being the enemy. It’s abut single-use as the enemy.”
      I prmised t try, even after my nt successful attempt. I’ll start with small things, building up habits. I can take clth bags t the grcery. I might start packing my glass water bttle and steel spn. And frm there, wh knws?

      (2024·北京朝阳·二模)When I was nine, my best friend nearly chked t death n a gbstpper, a type f hard candy. After several attempts, she cughed up the candy. I haven’t had a gbstpper since and I have carried with me a fear f seeing that scene again. Sadly, as I discvered this week, lightning can strike twice.
      I was getting ff a tube train in Lndn when I nticed a wman cughing. I slwed dwn, watching her carefully. I had learned that cughing is rarely a sign that smething is terribly wrng. Suddenly, the wman stpped cughing, her eyes widened and she bent ver.
      When I went ver t ask if she was OK, she lked up at me, panicked, and pinted t her back. I started hitting her back and screaming fr help. Despite having watched a few vides, I was terrified that I wuldn’t be able t crrectly perfrm the Heimlich, a first-aid methd, and that I wuld have t walk away with guilt fr her death. But it was just the tw f us, alne at an undergrund statin; if I didn’t try t help, n ne wuld. Thankfully, much like with my friend, after a few sharp hits, whatever had been stuck in her thrat came lse. She thanked me, almst embarrassed, and walked up t the lift. I fllwed behind her, shaking, with tears in my eyes.
      By the time we reached the lift, we had bth calmed dwn. She tk my hands and thanked me again, befre disappearing. She might have been fine withut my hurried hits n her back — I may nt have actually saved her life — but at least she knew that smene, a stranger whm she wuld never see again, cared.
      This experience als taught me abut the bystander effect, where peple assume thers assumed t be available during an emergency, direct help frm thers is far less likely t will help, leading t inactin. I get it: the fear f making things wrse, especially if yu have n medical training, is real. Research suggests that when a “medically cmpetent” persn is assumed t be available during an emergency, direct help frm thers is far less likely t ccur. Smetimes, thugh, regardless f wh else culd be nearby, it may be useful t get invlved. S it was with the cughing wman n the tube.
      45.Hw did the friend’s chking incident affect the authr?
      A.She lived with a sense f guilt.
      B.She realized the imprtance f first aid.

      B.She walked the wman up t the lift.
      C.She fund a “medically cmpetent” persn fr her.
      D.She perfrmed first aid by hitting the wman’s back.
      47.Which situatin can be described as the bystander effect?
      A.Yu vlunteered t help an ld man carrying a heavy bag.
      B.Yu asked yur brther wh is a dctr t save a dying wman.
      C.Yu avided invlvement when seeing an injured lady n the rad.
      D.Yu walked away after the rescue men asked yu t leave the scene.

      47.推理判断题。根据最后一段“This experience als taught me abut the bystander effect, where peple assume thers assumed t be available during an emergency, direct help frm thers is far less likely t will help, leading t inactin.(这段经历也教会了我“旁观者效应”,即人们认为别人在紧急情况下可以提供帮助,而别人的直接帮助远不太可能提供帮助,从而导致不作为)”可知,C选项“当你在路上看到一位受伤的女士时,你避免了介入”属于旁观者效应。故选C。

      (2024·北京·三模)As mst f yu knw, the first year f university is always the hardest t adapt t. The additin f taking care f yurself, making new friends, learning hw t get arund campus, and schl can smetimes be t much t bear.
      I wuld like t attend medical schl after my fur-year undergraduate. It is well-knwn that medical schls are very cmpetitive and require extremely high marks. I had always knwn that I was meant fr medical schl and wrked hard all thrughut high schl. I engaged in life sciences and knew that I wanted t d a duble majr in neurscience (神经科学) and psychlgy, but f curse, I wasn’t s fnd f the precnditins t get t that stage. I had t take math and physics in my first year.
      S after the chke I call the first term, I lked back n my grades and fund that I had never seen numbers like this befre. I really didn’t even think they were pssible. I had heard that medical schls liked t see an upward trend, s I was discuraged and hurt, but tried nt t think abut it. Having yur grades taken away frm yu when that was all yu had was a huge thing I had t vercme — I defined my wrth by hw “smart” I was and getting past that mindset was the hardest thing I’ve ever dne.
      After I saw my grades, I realized the mistake I made taking a bunch f unnecessarily challenging curses. At the end f my secnd term, my grades weren’t as high as I wanted them t be, but I accepted it. I knew that there were reasns fr the differences between individuals, but I still saw a huge imprvement in my marks frm the first term. I had enjyed my time in my secnd term and even thugh I wasn’t where I wanted t be, it had nthing t d with my place in the university. It was very eye-pening and taught me what I needed t d in rder t achieve MY best — nt what everyne else cnsidered t be the best.
      I’m nw taking a summer schl curse and my marks are incredibly better than what I was getting during my first year f schl. Thugh I had a rugh start, I’m sure my lessns and new attitude will carry me much farther than just t medical schl.

Then, he came up with the idea f flying acrss the Serengeti frm east t west, which wuld take fur flights n successive days, taking ff and landing where n ne had ever seen a balln befre.
      As a jurnalist, I was s lucky t make a jurney with Abeid. We were up at 3 am. Abeid walked int the basket and checked the lines and the fastenings. Mments later, he was instructing me t get int it. With barely time t catch my breath, he gave a lng blast (猛吹) n the burners and the basket tipped upright.
      Over the fllwing days, we gasped at the jy and wnder f the sky; at the beauty and cmplexity f the land beneath us. There was n fear, just a sense f being part f smething fantastic as we flated in the silence f the African sky.

She wuld mumble (咕哝) t herself and repeat the wrds she had just said under her breath. She, hwever, was academically capable, and hence we attended the same primary schl. Despite this, I never, ever acknwledged in public that she was my sister.

      (2024·北京·一模)“Yur mther needs a new heart,” my father tld me when I called n that December afternn. An unrelenting ptimist, he spke as if she merely needed t have a part replaced. But, althugh my tw sisters and I knew that ur mther had heart prblems, this news still made us frzen fr a while with ur eyes widening in disbelief.
      Dr. Marc Semigran f the transplant team reviewed my mther’s medical histry. She’d had an irregular and rapid heartbeat fr mst f her life. Her present treatment — the use f a series f cardiversins, r electric jlts, t restre a nrmal heartbeat — wuld nt wrk in the lng-term. She had an enlarged and weakened heart, as well as a faulty valve.
      “With medicatin,” Dr. Semigran said, “yu have a 60 percent chance f living six mnths. Yu culd have a lnger life with a transplant, but there are risks. Yu’re at the tp end f the age grup f sixty years ld. The lungs and ther rgans must be healthy and strng. While the transplant surgery is actually a straightfrward prcedure, acceptance by the bdy is the difficult thing.”
      My family came tgether, trying t prvide strength and wrk ut what t d. We’d already gne frm shck, ver ur mther’s cnditin, t wrry that she wuldn’t be a suitable recipient. Despite f the risk, we chse t believe that she wuld make it eventually.
      Wrd came later in December that she had been accepted int the prgramme. Dr. Jeremy Ruskin tld us ne f the reasns she had been accepted was that she had such strng family supprt.
      One Mnday in May, at abut 8 p. m., my mther received a phne call frm the hspital that a heart was available. As she was abut t be wheeled ff, my father tk her face in his hands and lked int her eyes. His lk said everything abut their 42-year relatinship.
      The heart transplant peratin was successful and the cnditins culd nt have been better.
      The irny f the transplant prcess is that ne family’s lss is anther’s gain; that tragedy begets frtune. It is a kind f life after death, ur hearts beating beynd us. We develped a feeling f lve fr this new part, f gratitude fr the dctrs, fr the prcess, and fr thse peple wh made a decisin just fr humanity.

      【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了,作者母亲常年心脏不好,现在需要进行心脏移植,家人虽担心母亲是否能心脏移植成功,但大家相信她最终会成功,最终心脏移植手术很成功,作者感谢献出心脏的家庭。
      73.细节理解题。由第一段中“But, althugh my tw sisters and I knew that ur mther had heart prblems, this news still made us frzen fr a while with ur eyes widening in disbelief. (但是,尽管我和我的两个姐妹都知道我们的母亲有心脏问题,但这个消息还是让我们停住不动了一段时间,难以置信地睁大了眼睛)”可知,听到母亲需要一颗新的心脏的消息,作者和姐妹感到惊讶。故选B项。
      74.细节理解题。由第三段中“Yu culd have a lnger life with a transplant, but there are risks. Yu’re at the tp end f the age grup f sixty years ld. The lungs and ther rgans must be healthy and strng. While the transplant surgery is actually a straightfrward prcedure, acceptance by the bdy is the difficult thing. (你可以通过移植活得更长,但也有风险。你处于60岁年龄组的顶端。肺部和其他器官必须健康强壮。虽然移植手术实际上是一个简单的过程,但被身体接受是一件困难的事情)”可知,心脏移植有风险,因为移植后新的心脏被身体接受是一件困难的事情,说明新的心脏在身体中的适应是影响母亲心脏移植可能性的因素。故选D项。
      75.细节理解题。由第五段“Wrd came later in December that she had been accepted int the prgramme. Dr. Jeremy Ruskin tld us ne f the reasns she had been accepted was that she had such strng family supprt. (12月晚些时候,有消息称她已被心脏移植项目录取。Jeremy Ruskin博士告诉我们,她被录取的原因之一是她有如此强大的家庭支持)”可知,全家人支持母亲进行心脏移植(即家人正期待着心脏移植手术)是让移植团队决定给母亲进行手术的原因。故选C项。
      76.推理判断题。由第三段中“Yu culd have a lnger life with a transplant, but there are risks. (你可以通过移植活得更长,但也有风险)”,第四段“My family came tgether, trying t prvide strength and wrk ut what t d. We’d already gne frm shck, ver ur mther’s cnditin, t wrry that she wuldn’t be a suitable recipient. Despite f the risk, we chse t believe that she wuld make it eventually. (我的家人聚在一起,努力提供力量,想办法做什么。我们已经对母亲的病情感到震惊,担心她不会是一个合适的接受者。尽管有风险,我们还是选择相信她最终会成功)”,第五段“Wrd came later in December that she had been accepted int the prgramme. Dr. Jeremy Ruskin tld us ne f the reasns she had been accepted was that she had such strng family supprt. (12月晚些时候,有消息称她已被心脏移植项目录取。Jeremy Ruskin博士告诉我们,她被录取的原因之一是她有如此强大的家庭支持)”和倒数第二段“The heart transplant peratin was successful and the cnditins culd nt have been better. (心脏移植手术很成功,而且情况再好不过了)”可知,尽管母亲进行心脏移植有风险,但全家人支持母亲进行心脏移植,也正是因为家人的支持母亲才被心脏移植项目录取,最终手术成功,可得出家庭支持非常重要。故选A项。
      (2024·北京海淀·一模)At my first lessn in Chinese calligraphy, my teacher tld me plainly: “Nw I will teach yu hw t write yur name. And t make it beautiful.” I felt my breath catch. I was curius.
      Grwing up in Singapre, I had an unusual relatinship with my Chinese name. My parents are ethnically Chinese, s they asked frtune tellers t decide my name, aiming fr maximum luck. As a result, I ended up with a nnsense and embarrassing name: Chen Yiwen, meaning, rughly, “ld”, “barley (薏米)” and “warm”.
      When I arrived in America fr cllege at 18, I put n an American accent and abandned my Chinese name. When I mved t Hng Kng in 2021, after 14 years in the States, I decided t learn calligraphy. Why nt get back in tuch with my heritage? I thught.
      In calligraphy, the idea is t cpy the ld masters’ techniques, thereby refining yur wn. Every week, thugh, my teacher wuld give uncmfrtably n-the-nse assessments f my persn. “Yu need t be braver,” he nce bserved. “Have cnfidence. Try t prduce a bld strke(笔画).” Fr years, I had prided myself n presenting an image f cnfidence, but my writing betrayed me.
      I was trying t make sense f this practice. Yu must visualize the wrd as it is t be written and leave a trace f yurself in it. As a bdily practice, calligraphy culd g beynd its wn cultural restrictins. Culd it help me g beynd mine? My teacher nce said t me, “When yu lk at the wrd, yu see the bdy. Thugh a wrd n the page is tw-dimensinal, it cntains multitudes, cnveying the frce yu’ve applied, the energy f yur grip, the arch f yur spine.” I had been learning calligraphy t get in tuch with my cultural rts, but what I was really seeking was a return t myself. Nw I have sensed that the pleasure ut f calligraphy allws me t knw myself mre fully.
      During a recent lessn, my teacher pinted at the wrd I had just finished, telling me: “This wrd is much better. I can see the chices yu made, yur calculatins, yur flw. Trust yurself. This wrd is yurs.” He might as well have said, “This wrd is yu.”
      77.What did the authr initially think f her name “Chen Yiwen”?
      A.It was lucky s she gladly accepted it.B.She felt prud f its symblic meaning.
      C.She understd the intentin but still disliked it.D.Its strange prnunciatin made her embarrassed.
      78.The authr decided t learn calligraphy t ______.
      A.pick up a new hbbyB.recnnect with her rigin
      C.gain insights int a new cultureD.fit in with lcal cmmunity
      79.Frm the teacher’s wrds, the authr learns that calligraphy ______.
      A.reflects the creatr’s spiritsB.cmes frm creative energy
      C.highlights the design f strkesD.depends n cntinuus practice
      80.What des the authr intend t tell us?
      A.Appreciate what ur culture ffers.B.Find beauty frm yur inner self.
      C.A great teacher leads yu t truth.D.We are the sum f what we create.
      【答案】77.C 78.B 79.A 80.D
      【导语】这是一篇记叙文。这篇文章主要讲述了作者学习中国书法的经历和感悟,包括初次接触书法时的情景,名字的由来,在美国放弃中文名,回到香港学习书法的原因,老师对自己的评价,以及通过书法对自身的思考和认识等。
      77.细节理解题。根据第二段“My parents are ethnically Chinese, s they asked frtune tellers t decide my name, aiming fr maximum luck. As a result, I ended up with a nnsense and embarrassing name: Chen Yiwen, meaning, rughly, “ld”, “barley (薏米)” and “warm”.( 我的父母是华裔,所以他们请算命先生给我取名字,希望能给我带来最大的好运。于是,我给自己取了一个毫无意义又尴尬的名字:陈薏温,意思大致是“陈旧”、“薏米”、“温暖”)”可知, 作者认为自己的名字“Chen Yi wen”是无意义且令人尴尬的,虽然父母是为了追求最大的运气才取这个名字,但她还是不喜欢。故选C。
      78.细节理解题。根据第三段“When I mved t Hng Kng in 2021, after 14 years in the States, I decided t learn calligraphy. Why nt get back in tuch with my heritage? I thught.(当我在美国生活了14年后,于2021年搬到香港时,我决定学习书法。为什么不跟我的传统联系一下呢?我想)”可知,作者决定学习书法是为了重新接触自己的文化根源。故选B。
      79.推理判断题。根据最后一段“During a recent lessn, my teacher pinted at the wrd I had just finished, telling me: “This wrd is much better. I can see the chices yu made, yur calculatins, yur flw. Trust yurself. This wrd is yurs.” He might as well have said, “This wrd is yu.”(在最近的一次课上,老师指着我刚完成的字对我说:“这个字好多了。我能看到你所做的选择,你的计算,你的心流。相信自己。这个词是你的。”他还不如说:“这个字就是你。”)”可推知,从老师的话中,作者了解到书法反映了创作者的精神。故选A。
