204650. （2023•师大附中•高二下期末）     My wife，Hannah，and I don't usually keep houseplants.Anything in pots gets either overwatered or underwatered，but after my diagnosis with brain cancer，I loved the idea of having something green around.
    A friend gave me what he said was a lucky bamboo plant in a deep-green bowl.We placed the plant in the living room and I told Hannah I wanted to care for it myself.When it didn't immediately turn yellow or lose leaves，I was pleasantly surprised.Tending to the plant gave me a sense of accomplishment when I sometimes felt useless.As a family physician，I was used to offering care，not receiving it.
    Since my diagnosis，I had to rely on help from other people. Watering the plant，small act as it was，connected me to a core part of my old identity.
    After I recovered from the operation and returned to work，I continued to care for the plant.Soon，it had nearly doubled in height.Both the plant and I were thriving.Then，without any reason，it began to show signs of stress.Its leaves kept browning and dropping to the floor.Hannah reminded me that we'd seen houseplants die before，but I couldn't shake the feeling that the plant had become a symbol of my health.I grew increasingly depressed and fearful.
    Looking back，I realized I had wrongly connected my caring of the plant—something I could manage—with my own survival—something I couldn't.Knowing I couldn't control my fate （命运），my anxiety actually lessened.I began to search online to figure out how to care for my plant.Following the instructions，I transplanted the plant to a larger pot，giving it room to grow.When it was back in the sunny window，we both began to thrive again.Whenever I look at the plant in its new pot，I make a point to think of those who have cared for and supported me.

（1）Why was the author surprised about the plant's good condition？

（2）What does the underlined part in paragraph 3 imply？
A．The author considered himself useless.
B．The author desired to provide care.
C．The author was concerned about his health.
D．The author hoped to return to work.

[解析]

（1）推理判断题。根据第一段My wife，Hannah，and I don't usually keep houseplants.Anything in pots gets either overwatered or underwatered，but after my diagnosis with brain cancer，I loved the idea of having something green around.（我妻子Hannah和我通常不养室内植物。花盆里的任何东西要么浇水过多，要么浇水不足，但在我被诊断出患有脑癌之后，我喜欢周围有一些绿色的东西的想法。）可知，作者和妻子Hannah以前种植的植物从来都生长地不太好。而根据第二段When it didn't immediately turn yellow or lose leaves，I was pleasantly surprised.（当它没有立即变黄或落叶时，我感到惊喜。）可判断，作者感到惊讶的原因是这次的幸运竹没有像以前的植物那样糟糕。故选D。
（2）句意理解题。根据第二段As a family physician，I was used to offering care，not receiving it.（作为一名家庭医生，我习惯于提供照顾，而不是接受照顾。）可知，作者以前是一名家庭医生，习惯于照顾他人。而划线句子"Watering the plant，small act as it was，connected me to a core part of my old identity.（给植物浇水，虽然是件小事，却把我和我旧身份的一个核心部分联系在一起。）"可推断，作者所指的旧身份是自己做家庭医生时的照顾他人。故选B。
（3）推理判断题。根据第四段Hannah reminded me that we'd seen houseplants die before，but I couldn't shake the feeling that the plant had become a symbol of my health.I grew increasingly depressed and fearful.（Hannah提醒我，我们以前见过室内植物死去，但我无法摆脱这种感觉，那棵植物已经成为我健康的象征。我变得越来越沮丧和恐惧。）可知，作者感到害怕，因为这种植物的健康状况不佳可能预示着他的死亡。故选A。
（4）细节理解题。根据最后一段Knowing I couldn't control my fate （命运），my anxiety actually lessened.（知道自己无法控制自己的命运后，我的焦虑反而减轻了。）可知，作者感到不那么焦虑是因为作者知道自己无法控制自己的命运，也就是接受了自身的局限性。故选B。

203956. （2024•鄠邑二中•高二下期末）     When I was a 19-year-old college student，a call from the hospital about my father's blood transfusion and throat surgery came the night before an exam.My father had been in a deep unconscious state for a week，and I was the closest son to him，responsible for his medical decisions.The blood transfusion was an easy decision.It was a relatively safe procedure.The throat surgery was another thing.I didn't know how my father would feel if he recovered consciousness and had a hole in his throat for the rest of his life.Ultimately，I declined.This experience made me even less willing to be vulnerable （脆弱的） and honest about my struggles of making big decisions.
    Years later，I became a professor.I learned to value my students' growth and others' perceptions.My students needed compassion and support.So，I shared something about my father's illness and death to acknowledge that life went on outside of my classroom and grades were not the most important thing in the world.I told my students my past lessons.I knew they might be suffering in adversity，and I wanted them to know that if they needed help，I would understand.The response was immediate and powerful.My connections with students deepened and I could instruct them on a new level.I changed nothing about the way I delivered course material，but student exam scores improved，as did my teaching evaluations.
    A fellow professor asked me， "If this works so well，why didn't you do it sooner？" I said， "Vulnerability is really hard.It involvearing of yourself as fully as you are able to，including admitting wrongdoing and acknowledging that you can't always be your best self.Far from being a sign of weakness，it requires a ton of strength."
    Exposing your imperfections，connecting with students on a deeper level and creating space for them to grow will always be challenging，but it is worth it.I cannot know everything that is going on in every student's life，but I can always choose compassion.

（1）Why did the author reject his father's throat surgery？
A.He was worried about the risks during the surgery.
B.He was unsure about his father's post-surgical feeling.
C.He was unsure if his father would regain consciousness.
D.He was worried about the pre-surgical preparation procedure.
（2）What change did the students have after the author shared his past lessons？
A.They were less focused on their grades.
B.They became more distant from the author.
C.They became more engaged and responsive.
D.They were less willing to ask the author for help.
（3）What does the author convey in paragraph 3？
A.It is easy to admit our imperfections.
B.It is hard to acknowledge we are the best.
C.Vulnerability is challenging but shows courage.
D.Vulnerability is more a sign of weakness than strength.
（4）What is the text？
A.A science fiction novel.

204107. （2023•西安中学•高二上期末） I once met a young woman who had dreams of swimming for the U.S Olympic team.She had to get up every morning at 4 a.m.to swim for 3 hours before going to school.She did not party with her friends on Saturday night.She had to study and keep her grades up，just like everyone else.
   When I asked her what compelled her with such super-human ambition and sacrifice（牺牲），she simply said. "I do it for myself and the people I love.It's love that gets me over the hurdles and sacrifices."

   Now the "wants".I want to be free to travel the world and live in the lifestyle I love.I want to be young when I do this.I want control over my time and my life.I want money to work for me.
   Those are my deep-seated，emotional reasons.What are yours？If they are not strong enough，the reality of the road ahead may be greater than your reasons.I have lost money and been set back many times.but it was the deep emotional reasons that kept me standing up and going forward.I wanted to be free by age 40.but it took me until I was 47 with many learning experiences along the way.

204240. （2023•长安区一中•高二上期末） When he tells people that he is deaf，Oliver Stabbe is called a liar. "The idea that deaf people cannot speak is a very offensive assumption，" the sophomore（大二学生）said.Stabbe's experience speaks of many of the misunderstandings about deaf people and the struggles they face - things commonly found right in Rochester.This city is home to 90，000 deaf people，a significant slice of the more than 1.1 million national population.The percentage of deal people here is higher than the national average t due in part to RITs National Technical Institute for the Deaf，the first technological college in the world created specifically for the deaf and hard of hearing. "Really，there seems to be an embarrassment in communicating with deaf people，" said sophomore Stephen Davis，another deaf student.This awkwardness might arise because non-deaf people just don't know how to do so without possibly offending someone. "I guess they think saying 'deaf' is offensive，but it really isn't and deaf people don't get upset about it，" Davis said.He noted that the biggest issue he's had when communicating with other students is their anxiety about communicating.Deaf or hard-of-hearing students also face frustrations（令人心烦的事）on their end when interacting with others. "Sometimes people talk about you，maybe to a non-deaf friend standing beside me，as if I'm not there，" Davis said. "That's depressing." As Davis put it， "We don't see ourselves as the disabled，so the awkwardness is only one-sided."
Stabbe advised that those communicating should not make assumptions about others' preferences or ability.If you have a question，ask.A moment of awkwardness is absolutely worth it if you are being educated about an important topic.

（1）Why are there more deaf people in Rochester？
A．Deaf people have some privileges here.
B．Deaf people may get better job opportunities here.
C．Deaf people meet fewer struggles here.
D．A professional school for the deaf appeals to them.
（2）What may embarrass people when communicating with the deaf according to Davis？
A．They are afraid of upsetting the deaf.
B．They are unwilling to communicate.
C．They don't know any simple gestures.
D．They don't challenge enough assumptions.
（3）What kind of person is Stephen Davis？
A．Sensitive and talkative.
B．Reasonable and reliable.
C．Confident and intelligent.
D．Outspoken and aggressive.
（4）What can be the best title of the text？
A．We can hear your heart

204827. （2022•长安区一中•高一下期末） We've all heard the stories of an actor's struggles before a career breakthrough：living a hard life，working part time，being a couch potato before getting that major role.Shelby，the star of "A Dog's Way Home，" has a hardluck tale that could top them all.Before her big break，she was living in a landfill，rooting through garbage for her next meal.
   Shelby's big break came in April 2017，when animal control officer Megan Buhler was driving in Cheatham County，Tennessee.Out on an unrelated call，Buhler spotted and approached what she recalled was a noticeably scared puppy emerging from the dump."I knelt down and just said， 'Oh，come here，baby，'" said Buhler."She was so scared，but she came right up to me，and I was able to put her in my truck." The pair headed to the county animal shelter，where the staff began calling the new resident Baby Girl.

   Most of the film's reviews have praised Shelby's performance.Variety made the comments "an amazing dog，perfect performance"！

204373. （2023•铁一中学•高三上期末） On April 30，2020，the world's most famous musicians met online to celebrate the tenth International Jazz Day，with the hope to revive jazz music and explore its possibility as aunifying voice across cultures.
   Despite the celebrations，though，the jazz audience continues to grow older because the music has failed to attract the younger generations.It's their job to help change that.
   Jason Moran，the Kennedy Center's artistic adviser for jazz，was one of the musicians.He hopes to widen the audience for jazz and make the music more accessible and enjoyable.
   "Jazz seems like it's not really a part of the American appetite（胃口）." Moran tells National Public Radio's reporter Neal Conan. "I hope that the younger generations understand that jazz is not black anymore.It's actually colorful，and it's actually digital."
   Moran says one of the problems with jazz today is that the fun side of the music has been lost. "Today，the music can't be presented the way it was in 1908 or 1958.It has to continue 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. "I just wanted to put it back in the mind that Waller is dance music as much as it is concert music." says Moran. "For me，it's just to re-contextualize.Sometimes we lose sight that the music has a wider context.It can be adapted to（适应）different situations. "
   During the interview，he asked，"In music，where does the feeling lie？Are we，as humans，gaining any insight（感悟）on how to talk about ourselves and how a Fats Waller record gets us into a dialogue about our emotions and our thoughts？"
   He added that most of the musicians have recognized the need and agreed to continue those dialogues for the year.

（1）Why did the musicians meet online on April 30？
A．To celebrate the Jazz Day.
B．To show the value of jazz.
C．To remember the birth of jazz.
D．To protect different jazz cultures.
（2）What does the underlined word "re-contextualize" in paragraph 6 mean？
A．To mix jazz with other music.
B．To adapt to different situations.
C．To be performed by different bands.
D．To play with more advanced instruments.
（3）What does Moran think of jazz？
A．It will disappear gradually.
B．It should be black and white.
C．It has to keep up with the times.
D．It has become more popular.
（4）What can be the best title for the text？
A．The Rise and Fall of Jazz
B．Goals Set for Jazz Day 2020
C．The Story of a Jazz Musician
D．The New Problems With Jazz

22266. （2016•新课标•ll卷） A new collection of photos brings an unsuccessful Antarctic voyage back to life.
Frank Hurley's pictures would be outstanding----undoubtedly first-rate photo-journalism---if they had been made last week.In fact,they were shot from 1914through 1916，most of them after a disastrous shipwreck（海难），by a cameraman who had no reasonable expectation of survival.Many of the images were stored in an ice chest,under freezing water,in the damaged wooden ship.
The ship was the Endurance,a small,tight,Norwegian-built three-master that was intended to take Sir Ernest Shackleton and a small crew of seamen and scientists,27men in all,to the southernmost shore of Antarctica's Weddell Sea.From that point Shackleton wanted to force a passage by dog sled（雪橇） across the continent.The journey was intended to achieve more than what Captain Robert Falcon Scott had done.Captain Scott had reached the South Pole early in 1912but had died with his four companions on the march back.
As writer Caroline Alexander makes clear in her forceful and well-researched story The Endurance,adventuring was even then a thoroughly commercial effort.Scott's last journey,completed as be lay in a tent dying of cold and hunger,caught the world's imagination,and a film made in his honor drew crowds.Shackleton,a onetime British merchant-navy officer who had got to within 100miles of the South Pole in 1908，started a business before his 1914voyage to make money from movie and still photography.Frank Hurley,a confident and gifted Australian photographer who knew the Antarctic,was hired to make the images,most of which have never before been published.

33．What do we know about the photos taken by Hurley？
A．They were made last week
B．They showed undersea sceneries
C．They were found by a cameraman
D．They recorded a disastrous adventure
34．Who reached the South Pole first according to the text？
A．Frank Hurley
B．Ernest Shackleton
C．Robert Falcon Scott
D．Caroline Alexander
35．What does Alexander think was the purpose of the 1914voyage？
A．Artistic creation
B．Scientific research
C．Money making
D．Treasure hunting.

204903. （2022•雁塔二中•高二下期末） A mild-mannered cat by day，at night Rusty was just the opposite.Often，Bill and I would lie in bed quarreling over whether we should let it out to wander in the dark or put up with another sleepless night.
So，instead，we lay in the dark each noisy night and wondered what damage Rusty would do.And always in the morning，if I had forgotten to put the butter in the cupboard，there were marks from a rough，little tongue and once even a paw print.
   Something had to give.Bill looked at me straight in the eyes， " Do it." My reservations were such，however，that it took me several weeks and the loss of nearly a pound of butter to decide we didn't have much choice.
   That night，I put Rusty on his cat bed and patted him a little guiltily on the head.Then I began filling the kitchen sink with about two inches of water.Rusty loved jumping into a damp sink and then tracking water all over the cupboards and across the kitchen floor.According to the article I saved from a website to my folder，cats used to jumping into your sink，but they won't do it again if they jump in and find a couple of inches of water.
   Next，I cleared the cupboards of everything.Then I got out all my metal cookie sheets and a fork to go with each.According to the article，you should support a cookie sheet with a fork.When your cat jumps on the counter，he will knock down the insecurely balanced cookie sheets.What happens next will stop him from doing it a second time.
   Everything in place，I slipped onto our bed quietly，waiting.Suddenly，there came an awfully loud noise of metal.A chain reaction of crashes next.Finally，Rusty rounded the corner in the hall heavily and leaped through our doorway onto the foot of our bed，trembling under our cover.And that was the night Rusty，the Midnight Troublemaker，retired.
