[解析]
(1)F      推理判断题.根据第一段中的"The jobs of the future have not yet been invented"未来的工作还没有发明出来.所以我们也不知道它们究竟是什么样子的.我们能做的就是让我们的孩子练好技能,帮助他们发展最优秀的技能.所以上句应该怎样帮助为了他们未来的工作而做好准备.故选F.
(2)A      推理判断题.根据第二段中的"What ingredients (配料)can we add to make these pancakes even better next time?"可知,做煎饼时添加什么配料会更好,讲述的是做饭.是一项基本的技能,我们要鼓励孩子和我们一起做饭,通过孩子的好奇心来培养这种基本的技能,故选A.
(3)C      推理判断题.根据第三段中"True creativity is the ability to take something existing and create something new"可知,真正的创造能力是从现存的东西里创造出新的东西的能力.所以我们给孩子机会让他们用新的方法来考虑这些现有的事物,以此来培养他们的创造能力.故选C.
(4)D      推理判断题.根据第四段中的三个问题"Why do you think she's crying?""Can you tell how that man is feeling by looking at his face?""If someone were to do that to you,how would you feel?可知,孩子怎样判断人的情感对他们来说是一个挑战,我们要让孩子思考别人的各种行为.以此培养他们理解他人思想的能力,所以问一下故事里的有关问题可以培养孩子这方面的能力.故选D.
(5)G     推理判断题.根据最后一段中的"music,acting,drawing,building,photography"可知,这些都是我们表达自己思想的有效方法,能够让孩子有这些有效的方法进行表达思想也是一种很重要的技巧.我们要培养孩子这方面的能力.故选G.

202170. (2022•周至县•一模) Swap,Don't shop! You keep hearing about recycling,right?But it doesn't end with bottles,cans,and paper.Clothing takes a huge amount of natural resources to make,and buying loads of new clothing(or throwing out old clothing)is not healthy for the environment.So what to do with all those perfectly-good-but-you're-maybe- a- little- sick- of- them clothes piled on your bedroom floor? (1)        .It's the best way to get rid of your used clothes,score clothes from your friends,and have a party all at the same time.
   A successful swap depends on the selection of clothes,the organization of the event,and,obviously,how much fun it has.It's really easy to do!Here are a few pointers.
   ●Invite5—10 people so you have a nice selection. (2)       ,and there may not be enough things to choose from;more than that,and it becomes uncontrollable.
   ●Tell everyone to bring clean clothes in good condition. (3)        .
    ●Put different types of clothing on different surfaces in the room.Have everyone put their clothes in the right spots. (4)       ,so people can see how things look when they try them on.One of the ground
rules of the swap should be that everyone must try on the clothes before they take them—things always look different when you put them on.
   ●Set a starting time.Maybe you say " go," or turn on a certain song,or whatever.(5)        .And don't forget to put out some cookies and fruits.Remember,it's a party!

A.Less people than that
B.Hold a clothing swap
C.If two people are competing
D.Just keep music playing throughout
E.Donate whatever goods are left over

204670. (2023•西安高级中学•高二下期末)     Map reading,growing fruit and vegetable and basic car service are also more common skills among the baby boomer generation.But according to a new survey,just one in three 18-to 25-year-olds are able to do basic DIY,compared to two-thirds of those aged 58 and over.
    Sarah Clarke-Kuehn,Chief Operating Officer-Commercial ,said, "The survey findings are so interesting as they highlight a very common incorrect conception related to 'getting old'."
    When asked at what age they thought developing new skills becomes "difficult",Gen Z respondents said they were 35 years old,while those aged over 58 believed this number was 63 years old.The belief is that there is a boundary between learning new skills and getting a sense of achievement.But we know that this is just not the case.The benefits in continuing to enjoy life,as well as developing new talents are very significant—both physically and mentally as we grow older.
    Neuroscientist and author,Dr Julia Jones,said, "We underestimate our brain's ability to continue learning.Our brain is the most complex and precise structure in the known universe but we only use a small part of its true potential throughout our lifetimes.To boost continued brain health,we should learn complex and novel skills at all ages.This becomes more important as we age,because these learning experiences help to build new connections between neurons(神经细胞) that maintain intelligence and reduce the risk of future brain decline."
    "Learning languages and musical instruments are believed to be effective at boosting neuroplasticity(神经可塑性) due to their complex nature,but all learning is beneficial and can bring a sense of achievement,purpose and social engagement."
    Dr Jones added, "Find a new hobby and throw yourself into a wonderful learning experience or pick up an old pastime and improve those skills.I'm currently learning to play the guitar and it's opened up a whole new world of music and fun."

(1)What is mentioned about the young generation in the text?        
A.They lose interest in DIY.
B.They have no idea in plants.
C.Many of them lack some basic skills.
D.Many of them own poor reading skills.
(2)What does the author imply in paragraph 3?        
A.Learning brings a sense of belonging.
B.It is necessary to show off one's talents.
C.It is never too late to learn in one's life.
D.The benefits of lifelong learning are temporary.
(3)What is paragraph 4 mainly about?        
A.The process of protecting the brain from risk.
B.The reasons for taking full advantage of the brain.
C.The difficulties in improving the ability of the brain.
D.The significance of knowing the structure of the brain.
(4)What is Dr Jones' attitude to learning musical instruments?        
A.Favorable.
B.Negative.
C.Doubtful.
D.Unclear.

212687. (2025•莲湖区•高一下期中) How to Make a Successful Traveling Plan Whether you're traveling for business or pleasure,every trip needs detailed planning.(1)       As long as you follow the tips below,you can plan a great travel experience.
    (2)       The further away you want to go,the sooner you should start planning.International trips can take months to plan properly.Likewise,trips during high seasons,such as summer or over the holidays,need to be booked further out than trips during low seasons.You can certainly plan a last-minute vacation,but it often takes you more effort and flexibility to make it.
    Set a travel budget (预算).(3)       It's easy to overspend when you're traveling if you don't plan ahead,so start your planning by breaking down how much you want to spend on transportation,food,accommodation,sightseeing,nightlife,and any other activities you hope to include in your trip.It's wise to set aside about 10% of your vacation fund as an emergency fund for unexpected situations.
    Choose a destination that fits your available resources (可用资源).Available resources include not only your travel budget but also things like how many vacation days you have.(4)       However,you'll have the most success if you pick a destination where you have the time and money for fun once you get there.
    Compare prices for transportation.Choices like flights,trains,or car rentals can be quite different depending on where you book them.Start by visiting the official websites of providers to find specials,and then explore at least 4-5 comparison sites to get a sense of the price range available.(5)       

A.Start planning in advance.
B.Schedule time for your dream destination.
C.It's easy to dream bigger than all these limitations.
D.Travel planning doesn't have to be stressful,though.
E.This way,you can ensure you're getting the best deal.
F.Hopefully,you won't need travel planning before traveling.
G.Before setting out,count how much money you'll have to work with.

(4)       
    Having a weakness doesn't have to be a bad thing.It could be something you struggle with,but it could also be something you haven't spent time developing yet. (5)        For example,maybe your area of weakness is relevant to gratitude.You just haven't spent a lot of time thinking about gratitude before.But now you engage in a bunch of activities that help you turn gratitude into an area of strength.Hey,now you've got one more skill!

    Admittedly,complex writing that uses rich vocabulary and vivid figurative language can wow readers.But it isn't the only mark of a good writer.Another skill that's of equal importance is the ability to convey ideas in plain language.(1)       To write in plain language,there are some general guidelines for you to follow.
    (2)       The only details they include are those necessary for the reader to understand the sentences' meaning.For example,the sign"Wait behind the yellow line."at a train platform includes"yellow"so travelers know where to stand.
    Plain language avoids using vocabulary that requires specialized knowledge.If you work in IT,you can comfortably use the word "latency"with your colleagues.(3)       But when speaking with someone without an IT background,you might instead use"slow"to ensure that they know what you're talking about.
    Plain language is more than word choices,though.(4)       This can be achieved in the following ways.For example,use clear headers for each section and keep paragraphs focused on one idea each.Make the relationships between ideas and sentences clear with transition words.Write directly to your reader.Additionally,use the active voice whenever possible to enhance clarity.
    It is important to note that not every guideline for plain writing will apply to every piece of writing.The ultimate goal is to create contents that are accessible and easily understood.By using plain language,you demonstrate respect for your readers' time and intelligence.(5)       

A.That is because they know what it means.
B.Thus,it develops positive relationships with them.
C.It also involves structuring writing to prioritize clarity.
D.One key aspect of plain writing is ensuring sentences are aort as possible.
E.It involves using direct and accessible language with a straightforward structure.
F.This can be especially important for those who speak English as a second language.
G.Plain language reduces the risk of misunderstandings caused by confusing language choices.

    The experts point to animals such as the dwarf elephant that once lived on the Mediterranean island of Cyprus.The animal is now extinct.When it lived ,however,it was only the size of a small horse.Elephants that live today in Africa and Asia are much larger than that.In the West Indies,researchers found a giant rodent(啮齿动物) that looked like a rat.However,it was about the same size as an American black bear.Rats are,of course,many times smaller than bears.
    Evolutionary experts came to call this phenomenon "island effect".They used this term to describe the fact that animals who normally have small bodies"upsize" on an island,while the opposite is true for animals who usually have large bodies.
    The"island effect"produces strange-sized animals because large animals require more food than small animals.On an island,there is a limited amount of food.As a result,larger animals become smaller over generations in order to survive with lower food intake.For small animals,there is not as much risk from predators (捕食性动物) on an island,so they often grow larger.
    Recently,researchers released their findings about 1,231 existing animals and 350 extinct ones that represent 23 million years of life.They found that animals on islands were more at risk of extinction compared to their relatives on the mainland.The arrival of human settlers increased the extinction risk for these strange animals.
    Roberto Rozzi,a paleoecologist at Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg in Germany said that the extinction line has become even sharper in recent decades.
    The researchers call the islands "biodiversity hotspots".Even though they only make up 7% of the Earth's land mass,they account for 20% of the land species.
