B．Serious.C．Caring. D．Patient.答案C解析推理判斷題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段中“Thesearethingsthatarewithuseveryday.Peoplearedying；peoplearebeinghurtaroundtheworld—wemusthandletheseissues”可知，AbdulrazakGurnah是一個(gè)關(guān)心他人的人。故選C。4．Whatisthetextmainlyabout?A．AparticularlifeofAbdulrazakGurnah.B．Theannouncementof2021NobelPrize.C．AbdulrazakGurnah’sbeingawardedNobelPrize.D．AbdulrazakGurnah’sbattleagainstcolonialism.答案C解析主旨大意題。通讀全文尤其根據(jù)第一段內(nèi)容可知，這篇文章主要描寫(xiě)AbdulrazakGurnah獲得諾貝爾獎(jiǎng)。故選C。BReadingpoemsisnotexactlyaneverydayactivityformostpeople.Infact，manypeopleneverreadapoemoncetheygetoutofhighschool.ItisworthremindingourselvesthatthishasnotalwaysbeenthecaseinAmerica.Inthe19thcentury，ausualAmericanactivitywastositaroundthefiresideintheeveningandreadpoemsaloud.Itistruethattherewasnotelevisionatthetime，normovietheatres，norWorldWideWeb，toprovidediversion.However，poemswereasourceofpleasure，ofself-education，ofconnectiontootherpeopleortotheworldbeyondone’sowncommunity.Readingthemwasasocialactaswellasanindividualone，andperhapsevenmoresocialthanindividual.Writingpoemstosharewithfriendsandrelationswas，likereadingpoemsbythefireside，anotherwayinwhichpoetryhasaplaceineverydaylife.Howdidthingschange？WhyaremostAmericansnolongercomfortablewithpoetry，andwhydomostpeopletodaythinkthatapoemhasnothingtotellthemandthattheycandowellwithoutpoems?Thereare，Ibelieve，threefactors：poets，teachers，andweourselves.Ofthese，theleastimportantisthethird.Theworldsurroundingthepoemhasbetrayedusmorethanwehavebetrayedthepoem.Earlyinthe20thcentury，poetryinEnglishheadedintodirectionsunfavourabletothereadingofpoetry.Readersdecidedthatpoemswerenotforthefiresideortheeasychairatnight，andthattheybelongedwhereotherdifficult-to-readthingsbelonged.Poetsfailedthereader，andsodidteachers.Theywanttheirstudentstoknowsomethingabouttheskillsofapoem，andtheywanttheirstudentstoseethatpoemsmeansomething.Yetwhatusuallyoccurswhenteacherspushtheseconcernsontheirhighschoolstudentsisthatyoungpeopledecidepoemsareunpleasantcrosswordpuzzles.語(yǔ)篇解讀本文是一篇議論文。在過(guò)去，人們經(jīng)常讀詩(shī)，然而現(xiàn)在，讀詩(shī)的人越來(lái)越少。文章針對(duì)這種現(xiàn)象探討了原因。5．Readingpoemsisthoughttobeasocialactinthe19thcenturybecause.A．itbuiltalinkamongpeopleB．ithelpeduniteacommunityC．itwasasourceofself-educationD．itwasasourceofpleasure答案A解析細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段中的“Inthe19thcentury...ofconnectiontootherpeopleortotheworldbeyondone’sowncommunity”可知，詩(shī)歌是聯(lián)系一個(gè)人與他人或外部世界的紐帶。故選A。6．Whatdoestheunderlinedword“diversion”inparagraph2mostprobablymean?A．Concentration. B．Change.C．Amusements. D．Stories.答案C解析詞義猜測(cè)題。畫(huà)線單詞前面的television，movietheatres，WorldWideWeb這些事物都是為人們提供娛樂(lè)的，由此可推斷diversion與amusements同義，意為“娛樂(lè)活動(dòng)”。故選C。7．Accordingtothepassage，whatisthemaincauseofthegreatgapbetweenreadersandpoetry?A．Studentsarebecominglessinterestedinpoetry.B．Studentsarepoorlyeducatedinhighschool.C．TVandtheInternetaremoreattractivethanpoetry.D．Poemshavebecomedifficulttounderstand.答案D解析細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段尤其是其最后一句可知，讀者覺(jué)得詩(shī)歌不再適合坐在火爐邊或安樂(lè)椅上舒服地讀了，是因?yàn)樗鼈儸F(xiàn)在更難理解了。故選D。8．Inthelastparagraph，thewriterquestions.A．thedifficultyinstudyingpoemsB．thewaypoemsaretaughtinschoolC．students’wrongideasaboutpoetryD．thetechniquesusedinwritingpoems答案B解析推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段中的“Poetsfailedthereader，andsodidteachers.”及后面介紹的老師在教給學(xué)生詩(shī)歌時(shí)，強(qiáng)加給他們的學(xué)習(xí)內(nèi)容使他們認(rèn)為詩(shī)歌是令人不愉快的填字游戲。故選B。CJoyHarjo’sPoetWarriorisawonderfulbookthatmixesmemoir(回憶錄)，poetry，songs，anddreamsintosomethingthatopensawindowintothemostimportanteventsofHarjo’slifeandinvitesreaderstoreconnectwiththemselves.PoetWarriorisaspiritualcompaniontoCrazyBrave，Harjo’sfirstmemoir，butitoperatesaloneandreadingthefirstmemoirisn’tarequirementinordertoenjoyPoetWarrior.Ratherthanamemoirfollowingastricttimeorderanddetailingallmajorevents，thisbookfocusesontheroleofpoetry，art，andmusicinHarjo’slifeandherdevelopmentasanartist.Thisisalsoabookaboutpainandgrowth.Harjotalksaboutthesignificanceofourancestors’storiesandlessons，discussesthemusicthatshapedherchildhoodinabrokenhome，andsharesherunderstanding—andconversations—withotherartists，herfamily，snakes，birdsandplants.ButthesimplicitywithwhichHarjowritesaboutdeepthingsmakesthisabeautifulbook.PoetWarriorisalsoaguidetolifeforthosewillingtolisten.Shewrites，“Weareallheretoserveeachother.Atsomepointwehavetounderstandthatwedonotneedtocarryastorythatisunbearable.Wecanobservethestory，feelthestory，letthestorygoandforgivethestory.Thenwecanusethematerialsofittobuildahouseofwisdom.”JoyHarjoismorethanapoet，painterandmusician；sheisaspiritualbeingawareofthemeaningofeverythingwecanseeaswellasthethingsaroundusthatareusuallyinvisible.AndPoetWarriorisaninvitationtoopenoureyesandseeitallwithhers.eq\x(語(yǔ)篇解讀本文是一篇書(shū)評(píng)。文章主要評(píng)價(jià)了喬伊·哈喬的第二部自傳體詩(shī)集。)9．WhichofthefollowingbestdescribesPoetWarrior?A．Itistoodifficulttobeenjoyedbyreaders.B．IthastobereadtogetherwithCrazyBrave.C．ItdescribesHarjo’slifeinastricttimeorder.D．ItiscloselyrelatedtoHarjo’sfirstmemoir.答案D解析細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第二段中“PoetWarriorisaspiritualcompaniontoCrazyBrave，Harjo’sfirstmemoir”可知，PoetWarrior與CrazyBrave密切相關(guān)。故選D項(xiàng)。10．WhatdoesHarjosuggestwedowithourpainfulpast?A．Learnfromit. B．Ignoreit.C．Coveritup. D．Bearitsilently.答案A解析推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章第三段最后三句可以推斷，哈喬鼓勵(lì)我們觀察、感受、放下和原諒故事，且從中吸取教訓(xùn)。故選A項(xiàng)。11．Whatdoestheunderlinedword“invisible”inthelastparagraphmean?A．Ordinary. B．Rare.C．Hidden. D．Important.答案C解析詞義猜測(cè)題。分析畫(huà)線詞所在句的結(jié)構(gòu)可知，aswellas意為“還”，連接前后兩個(gè)相互補(bǔ)充的部分，前為“everythingwecansee”，后為“thethingsaroundusthatareusuallyinvisible”，可推測(cè)其含義為“通常我們周?chē)床灰?jiàn)的一切”，故invisible意為“看不見(jiàn)的”。故選C項(xiàng)。12．Fromwhichisthetextprobablytaken?A．Abiography.

D．Awritingguide.答案B解析文章出處題。根據(jù)全文，尤其是第一段中“JoyHarjo’sPoetWarriorisawonderfulbook”及最后一段中“AndPoetWarriorisaninvitationtoopenoureyesandseeitallwithhers.”可推斷，本文摘自一篇書(shū)評(píng)。故選B項(xiàng)。Ⅱ.七選五Asyouknow，mentalhealthissoimportant.Sohowdoyoupromoteit?Ofcourse，it’simportanttofirstnotethatyoushouldseekoutamedicalprofessionalifyouarestrugglingwithyourmentalhealth.1Manyofthesearebackedbyevidencethoughnoteverymethodwillbesuitableforall.Let’slookatsomewaysyoucantakecareofyourownmentalhealth.·2Thefirststeptowardstakingcareofyourmentalhealthistoseekouthelpwhenyou’restruggling.Whetherit’stalkingwithalovedoneorseekingoutamedicalprofessional，gettinghelpwheni
