B.Objective.C.Concerned. D.Supportive.解析D態(tài)度推斷題。由題干中的"Mr.Tabor"可將解題信息定位至倒數(shù)第二段。由倒數(shù)第二段可知，Mr.Tabor認(rèn)為，沒有必要使用那么多的熱量。如果你的管道不結(jié)冰，你可以睡覺和工作，這就足夠了——其余的都是奢侈的享受。普通的電器和燈會(huì)散發(fā)出驚人的熱量。由此可知，Mr.Tabor對(duì)這一挑戰(zhàn)持支持的態(tài)度，故選D。BHodyChildress，afarmerfromGeraldine，Alabama，livedthelast10yearsofhislifewithalittlesecretthatwasdoingalotofgood.Inthesmalltownwherehelivedhisentirelife，Childresswantedtohelphiscommunity.Heknewtherewerefamiliesinhishometownwhowerestrugglingfinancially.Soonedayheaskedhislocalpharmacist（藥劑師），BrookeWalker，aquestionthatwouldleadtosupportingalotofpeople."Hepulledmetothesideandsaid，‘Doyoueverhaveanybodythatcan’tpayfortheirmedicine？’andIsaid，‘Well，yeah，unfortunately，thathappensagoodbit.’"WalkersharedwiththeBBC.SoChildressdonated$100tothelocalpharmacy（藥房）foranyonewhocouldn’taffordtopayforaprescription，saying，"Nexttimethathappens，willyouusethis？Don’ttellwhereitcamefrom，anddon’ttellmewhoneededit."Thisactofgenerositycontinuedfornearly10years，untilhisdeathinJanuary2023.Andhisstoryonlycametolightathisfuneral，whenhisdaughter，TaniaNix，wantedtoshowwhatkindofmanherfatherwas.Infact，the80-year-oldonlyrevealedhisgenerositytohisdaughterwhenhewasunabletogettothepharmacyhimself.Heaskedhisdaughtertotakea$100billtothedrugstoreatthefirstofthemonth.Nixcontinuedtodropoffthemoneytothepharmacyanddidn’ttellanybodyaboutwhatherdadwasdoing.WithherbrotherDoug，Nixshared，"Wehadareallyhardtimewhethertoallowthisstoryouttothepublic，butIfeellikeasmalldeedcanturnintoabigdeed—oritcanturnintosomethingthatgivespeoplehope.Ifitcanencourageanyonetobeabetterpersonandwanttohelpothers—it’sworthit."AccordingtotheBBC，sincethestorywasfirstpublishedbytheWashingtonPost，thepharmacyhasreceiveddonationsfromalloverthecountry.本文主要講述了一位心地善良且不圖名利的老人默默地捐錢為有需要的人支付藥費(fèi)的故事。1.AccordingtoWalker，.A.ChildressoftenfellillB.ChildressmadeagoodfortunefromfarmingC.mostpeopleinGeraldineleadahardlifeD.manypeoplecan’tpayfortheirmedicine解析D細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由第三段中的"Doyoueverhaveanybodythatcan’tpayfortheirmedicine？"和"Well，yeah，unfortunately，thathappensagoodbit"可知，本題選D項(xiàng)。2.WhichwordsbestdescribeChildress？A.Honestandgenerous.B.Generousandnoble.C.Kindheartedandopen-minded.D.Kindheartedandeasygoing.解析B推理判斷題。結(jié)合Childress捐錢為生活困難的人付藥費(fèi)可知，他是一個(gè)善良大方的人，而他做好事不留名的做法表明他是一個(gè)高尚的人，故本題選B項(xiàng)。3.WhatcanweinferaboutNixfromthepassage？A.Shewantedtomakeherfatherfamous.B.Shefollowedherfather’sexampleandalsodonatedsomemoney.C.Shehelddifferentopinionsabouttheirfather’sdeedfromDoug.D.Shehesitatedaboutthedecisiontospreadoutherfather’ssecret.解析D推理判斷題。由倒數(shù)第二段中的"Wehadareallyhardtimewhethertoallowthisstoryouttothepublic"可推知，對(duì)于是否將父親的善行義舉公之于眾，Nix猶豫不決，故本題選D項(xiàng)。4.Whatlessoncanwelearnfromthelasttwoparagraphs？A.Actionsspeaklouderthanwords.B.Nothingisimpossibletoawillingheart.C.Whatgoesaroundcomesaround.D.Onegooddeedmayprobablyleadtoanother.解析D推理判斷題。由倒數(shù)第二段中的"Ifeellikeasmalldeedcanturnintoabigdeed"和最后一段中的"sincethestorywasfirstpublishedbytheWashingtonPost，thepharmacyhasreceiveddonationsfromalloverthecountry"可推知，本題選D項(xiàng)。二、七選五[2023河南鄭州一測(cè)]Haveyoueverhadsuchanexperience—goingshoppingandbuyingmorethanyouneedwhenyoufeelupset？1AccordingtoastudybyUniversityofMichiganresearchers，shoppingtorelievestresswasupto40timesmoreeffectiveatgivingpeopleasenseofcontrolandshopperswere3timeslesssadcomparedtothosewhoonlywentwindow-shopping.Morethanhalfofthe1，000consumersinterviewedbyCreditKarmasaidtheyhadshoppedtodealwithfeelingsofstressoranxiety.2Infact，shoppingtoreducestresscanactuallyhelpyouliveahealthierlifebymakingsurethatyourbloodpressureislowered.Shoppingtorelievestressisalsojokinglycalled"retailtherapy（購(gòu)物療法）"asaformofregulatingstress.3Andthatfeelingfollowingthosepurchaseswaslong-lasting.However，thesideeffectofretailtherapy，formany，canberelativelyharmlessatfirstbutinthelongtermitcouldpossiblyuseupsavingsandcauseconflicts，thusaddingasignificantamountofstresstoaperson’slife.Preparingalistbeforeshoppingisthebestwaytoavoidthesideeffectofretailtherapy.Whetheryou’repurchasingpresentsorbuyinggroceries，havingtheitemsyouneedwrittendownwillmakeyouquiteclearandsensiblewhileyou’reshopping.4Thatwayyou’llbemorelikelytocommittoit.Youcanbuyacupofcoffeewhileshoppingorplanafunactivitywhenyoureturnhome.5Everyone’sfinancialsituationisdifferent.Comparisonusuallyleadstodebtanddissatisfactionwithwhatyoualreadyhave.Appreciatewhatyoucurrentlyhavebypracticinggratitude.A.Rewardyourselfforstickingtoyourlist.B.Whydopeopletendtoshoptoreducestress？C.Doesoverspendingreallymakeyoufeelhappier？D.Thinkaboutwhatyoustrugglewithmostfinancially.E.Giveuptheneedstokeepupwithyourneighborsandfriends.F.Thestudyalsofound82％hadapositivefeelingabouttheirpurchases.G.23％ofthemsaidtheyhaduseduptheircreditcardsinthepastyear.作者在文章中分析了過(guò)度消費(fèi)的優(yōu)點(diǎn)和缺點(diǎn)，并結(jié)合例子給出了合理的建議。1.C由空前的"goingshoppingandbuyingmorethanyouneedwhenyoufeelupset"可推知，空處內(nèi)容應(yīng)與過(guò)度消費(fèi)相關(guān)；結(jié)合下文提到的"一項(xiàng)研究表明購(gòu)物可以讓人們不那么悲傷"可知，此處應(yīng)該與過(guò)度購(gòu)物是否會(huì)讓人們開心有關(guān)以引出下文，故選C。2.G由空前的"Morethanhalfofthe1，000...saidtheyhadshopped"可知，空處內(nèi)容應(yīng)與被采訪的消費(fèi)者有關(guān)，G項(xiàng)符合語(yǔ)境，且G選項(xiàng)中的"them"與空前一句中的"consumers"相對(duì)應(yīng)。3.F空格所在段主要在講購(gòu)物療法的好處，再由空后的"Andthatfeelingfollowingthosepurchaseswaslong-lasting"可推知，空處內(nèi)容應(yīng)與某種情感相關(guān)，F(xiàn)項(xiàng)中的"apositivefeeling"與空后的thatfeeling相呼應(yīng)，故選F。4.A由語(yǔ)境可推知，空處內(nèi)容應(yīng)與讓自己更加忠于購(gòu)物清單的方法有關(guān)；結(jié)合空后第二句可知，該方法是獎(jiǎng)勵(lì)自己，故A項(xiàng)（對(duì)自己堅(jiān)持按清單購(gòu)買商品給予獎(jiǎng)勵(lì)）符合語(yǔ)境。5.E由空后內(nèi)容可知，每個(gè)人的財(cái)務(wù)狀況不同，比較通常會(huì)帶來(lái)不利后果，所以本段主要在講不要比較，故E項(xiàng)"放棄與你的鄰居和朋友們攀比的欲望"符合語(yǔ)境。三、完形填空[2024湖南長(zhǎng)沙雅禮中學(xué)開學(xué)考]AmyTaylorhadweatheredsometoughyears.Herhusbandsufferedalotfromkidneyfailureandin2020，thepoormother1herjobintheeconomicdepression.Duringthespringbreak，her14-year-olddaughter，EmilyMoore，tookapart-timejob，and2minimumwage.Butbeforeshecouldspendthemoney，Emilyhadanidea.ThenewsinKansasCitythatweekhadbeenfilledwithstoriesaboutapoliceofficer，JimmyMoss，whowasbadlyhurtinacaraccidentinthelineofduty.Hewasin3condition.Emilyandherunemployedmotherhadneverforgottenhow4thepolicehadbeenwhenTaylorwasrobbedinthestreetoneday.Emilydecidedto5themoneytoOfficerMoss’sfamily.Hermom6agreed.Taylorcalledthepoliceandmadeananonymous（匿名的）donation.Movedbyher7expressionofthanks，theofficersdidwhattheydobest—they8Taylor.Whensheexplainedthefamily’s9，theofficerscouldhardlybelieveit."Withhercurrentfinancial10，weencouragedhertokeepthemoney，"thedepartmentlaterexplained."She11，sayingtheofficer’sfamilyneededitandthepoliceneededtoknowtheywere12."Bythen，thatfeelingofsupportwasmutual.ThepolicesetupaGoFundMepageforTaylor，whomtheynamed"TheWomanwiththeHeartofGold".AsofJanuary11，2023，theyhad13$165，405.Evenbetter：OfficerMoss，whohada1percentchanceof14，isoutofthehospitaland15.本文是一篇記敘文，講述了AmyTaylor一家和警察相互支持的故事。1.A.changed
