由表及里——2步7法缩小选项范围
阅读七选五,有七个选项,每个空格就可能有七种选择,这无疑加大了解题的难度,如何缩小答案范围,把待选项范围变小,就显得尤为重要。
技法一 词汇复现法
(2021·全国甲·片段)
A successful swap depends on the selection of clothes,the organization of the event,and,obviously,how much fun is had.It’s really easy to do! Here are a few pointers.
·Invite 5-10 people so you have a nice selection. 37 ,and there may not be enough things to choose from;more than that,and it becomes uncontrollable.
...
·Set a starting time.Maybe you say “go”,or turn on a certain song,or whatever. 40 .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 clothes are left over
F.Have everyone put their clothes in the right spots
G.Tell everyone to bring clean clothes in good condition
37.答案 A
解析 本空表示条件,与本段中的“more than that”构成反义词复现,故此处是说,要是参加人数少于5人,那就可能没有足够的衣物可供挑选。故选A。
40.答案 D
解析 空前句讲到你可以使用指令“go”,也可以播放一首歌曲或其他,故D项“那就全程播放着音乐”符合语境。并且D项中的music与上一句中的song是同一范畴的词汇复现。
技法二 代词指代法
(2021·浙江1月·片段)
Researchers have a good way to deal with this problem.Make all customers stand in one long,snaking line—called a serpentine line—and serve each person at the front with the next available register. 34 This is what they do at most banks and fast-food restaurants.With a serpentine line,a long delay at one register won’t unfairly punish the people who lined up behind it.Instead,it will slow down everyone a little bit but speed up checkout overall.
A.Why does this always seem to happen to you?
B.So why don’t most places encourage serpentine lines?
C.Some of them may have stood in a queue for almost an hour.
D.The chances of your line being the fastest are only one in three.
E.How high is the probability that you are in the fastest waiting line?
F.With three registers,this method is much faster than the traditional approach.
G.But sometimes,as on a Sunday afternoon,the system gets particularly busy.
34.答案 F
解析 根据上一句可知,研究人员有一个处理这个问题的好方法。让所有的顾客站在一条长长的蛇形队伍中,用下一台可用的收银机为前面的每个人服务。F项中的this method指代第一句中的好方法(a good way),属于同义词复现,并且能够承接上文。

5.【B】根据后文“the more comfortable you’ll begin to feel with its foreign cultural practices(你就会对它的外国文化习俗感到越舒服)”可知,此处句式为“the more...,the more...”,且its是指“国家的”,所以此处是指在一个国家待的时间越久,选项B“你在某个国家待的时间越久”切合文意。故选B。
Passage 2、(2021·全国新高考I卷)
My husband and I just spent a week in Paris.____6____So the first thing we did was rent a fantastically expensive sixth-floor apartment the size of a cupboard. It was so tiny that we had to leave our suitcases in the hallway.
The place wasn’t entirely authentic, though. Unlike a normal Parisian apartment, the plumbing (水管) worked. ____7____Our building even had a tiny lift with a female voice that said, “Ouverture des portes,” in perfect French. That is the only French phrase I mastered, and it’s a shame I don’t have much use for it.
Parisians are different from you and me. They never look lazy or untidy. As someone noted in this paper a couple of weeks ago, they eat great food and never gain weight. ____8____ French strawberries do not taste like cardboard. Instead, they explode in your mouth like little flavor bombs.
____9____ On our first morning in Paris, I went around the corner to the food market to pick up some groceries. I bought a handful of perfectly ripe small strawberries and a little sweet melon. My husband and I agreed they were the best fruit we had ever eaten. But they cost $18!
In France, quality of life is much more important than efficiency.
A.Not all the customers are tourists.
B.The quality of life in France is equally excellent.
C.There was a nice kitchen and a comfortable bed.
D.The amazing food is mainly consumed by local farmers.
E.That’s not the only reason the French eat less than we do.
F.Our aim was to see if we could live, in some way, like real Parisians.
G.The food is so delicious that you don’t need much of it to make you happy.
You can tell this by cafés life. French cafés are always crowded.____10____When do these people work? The French take their 35-hour workweek seriously — so seriously that some labor unions recently struck a deal with a group of companies limiting the number of hours that independent contractors can be on call.

Figure out what you’re scared of and do it continuously.

Eventually, you can look at fear in the eyes and say, “Go on, I’m not scared!”

Apart from helping you challenge yourself, taking a class for your hobby may also give you extra income.
Set aside at least nine minutes a day for physical exercise.
___19___ A simple 9-minute run around your neighborhood can do wonders for yourself. Exercise can not only help you maintain your regular weight, but also make you feel better about yourself.
Travel and allow yourself to be interested in new people.

(如果你是一名销售人员,你害怕与人当面交谈或在电话中交谈,现在,不要害怕,不要认为你会失败,每天至少花五分钟拿起电话打个电话)”可知,B项中的“hang up”与上文中“pick up the phone and make a call”对应。B项:Someone may hang up on you.(有人可能会挂断你的电话)符合题意。故选B。

Passage 5、(2020·北京·高考真题)
Many people think that positive thinking is mostly about keeping one's head in the sand and ignoring daily problems, trying to look optimistic. In reality it has more to do with the way an individual talks to himself. Self-talk is a constant stream of thoughts of a person, who is often unaware and uncertain of some events, phenomena, people, or even the person himself.____21____Meanwhile, positive thinking can help to stop negative self-talks and start to form a positive view on an issue. People who regularly practise positive thinking tend to solve problems more effectively. They are less exposed to stress caused by external factors. They tend to believe in themselves and in what they do.
____22____People who think positively demonstrate increased life spans, lower rates of depression and anxiety, better physical and psychological health, reduced risks of death from heart problems. Positive thinking also contributes to one's ability to deal with problems and hardships.____23____For example, researchers have found that in the case of a crisis accompanied by strong emotions, such as a natural disaster, positive thinking can provide a sort of buffer against depression and anxiety. Resilient people who think positively tend to treat every problem as a challenge, a chance for improvement of any kind, or as an opportunity for personal growth. Pessimists, on the contrary, tend to perceive problems as a source of additional stress.____24____
In conclusion, positive thinking is a powerful and effective tool for dealing with hard times and improving the quality of one's life. It doesn't have anything to do with ignorant optimism when an individual refuses to notice a problem.____25____
A.It doesn't cause any severe emotional discomfort, either.
B.Negative self-talk damages self-confidence and decreases self-respect.
C.It helps one to remain clear-headed and confident in difficult situations.
D.Positive thinking has several beneficial effects on the body and the mind.
E.As thinking changes, an individual's behaviour and habits change as well.
F.They often offer a real alternative to the common and regular way of thinking.
G.They often feel discouraged long before trying to solve the problem, even if small.
Thinking in a positive, self-encouraging way brings about many benefits to one's physical and mental health.
【语篇解读】
这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了积极思考对人产生的各种益处,同时将积极思考者与悲观主义者相比较,分析两种人的差异。积极思维是应对困难时期和提高个人生活质量的强大而有效的工具。
【详情解析】
21.【B】根据上文“Self-talk is a constant stream of thoughts of a person, who is often unaware and uncertain of some events, phenomena, people, or even the person himself.(自我对话是一个人持续不断的想法,他常常对一些事件、现象、人,甚至是他自己都没有意识和不确定)”以及后文“Meanwhile, positive thinking can help to stop negative self-talks and start to form a positive view on an issue.(同时,积极的思考可以帮助停止消极的自我对话,开始形成对一个问题的积极的观点)”由此可知,上文对自我对话进行了定义,后文则提到了积极的思考可以有助于停止消极的自我对话,可知本句是在说明消极的自我对话对人的不良影响。后文中negative self-talks可对应到B选项中Negative self-talk。故B选项“消极的自言自语会损害自信,降低自尊”符合语境,故选B。
22.【D】根据后文“People who think positively demonstrate increased life spans, lower rates of depression and anxiety, better physical and psychological health, reduced risks of death from heart problems. Positive thinking also contributes to one's ability to deal with problems and hardships.(积极思考的人寿命更长,抑郁和焦虑率更低,身心更健康,死于心脏问题的风险更低。积极的思考也有助于一个人处理问题和困难的能力)”由此可知,后文提到了积极思考对人的益处,后文中People who think positively以及Positive thinking可对应到D选项中Positive thinking。故D选项“积极思考对身心有几个有益的影响”符合语境,故选D。
23.【C】根据后文“For example, researchers have found that in the case of a crisis accompanied by strong emotions, such as a natural disaster, positive thinking can provide a sort of buffer against depression and anxiety.(例如,研究人员发现,当危机伴随着强烈的情绪时,比如自然灾害,积极的思考可以为抑郁和焦虑提供一种缓冲)”可知,后文举出的例子说明了积极思考可以让一个人在面临危机时,保持冷静。故C选项“它帮助一个人在困难的情况下保持头脑清醒和自信”符合语境,故选C。
24.【G】根据上文“Resilient people who think positively tend to treat every problem as a challenge, a chance for improvement of any kind, or as an opportunity for personal growth. Pessimists, on the contrary, tend to perceive problems as a source of additional stress.(积极思考的、有韧性的人倾向于把每一个问题都看作是一个挑战,一个改进的机会,或者一个个人成长的机会。相反,悲观主义者倾向于将问题视为额外压力的来源)可知,上文在将积极思考者与悲观主义者相比较,本句应承接上文,进一步解释说明悲观主义者在解决问题时一些性格特点。上文Pessimists可对应到G选项中They。故G选项“他们常常在试图解决问题之前就感到气馁,即使是很小的问题”符合语境,故选G。
25.【A】根据上文“In conclusion, positive thinking is a powerful and effective tool for dealing with hard times and improving the quality of one's life. It doesn't have anything to do with ignorant optimism when an individual refuses to notice a problem. (总之,积极思考是应对困难时期和提高个人生活质量的强大而有效的工具。当一个人拒绝注意到一个问题时,它与无知的乐观主义没有任何关系)”可知,本句承接上文进一步说明一个人拒绝注意到问题的影响,它与无知的乐观主义没有任何关系,也不会引起任何严重的情绪不适。故A选项“它也不会引起任何严重的情绪不适”符合语境,故选A。

Passage 2、(2023届贵州·凯里一中高三11月份阶段考试)
___6___. A study recently published in Current Biology reflects previous perspective. Can you catch up on lost sleep? Here’s what the science says.
Losing even an hour puts you in sleep debt.
___7___: Withdraw an hour on Monday, then deposit an extra one on Saturday to break even. But as far as truly making up for the lost sleep during the week, you really can’t make up for it hour by hour. Research has suggested that a person would actually need four days of adequate rest to make up for even one hour of sleep debt. ___8___, it’s almost mathematically impossible to close that gap over only two weekend nights.
Your circadian clock (生物钟) is more sensitive than you think.
Pulling an occasional all-nighter or extra-early morning may not seem like a big deal. But tiredness isn’t the only consequence of an uncertain sleep schedule. ___9___. Your circadian clock naturally starts producing sleep-promoting melatonin (褪黑素) around 9 p.m., and levels stay high throughout the night before dropping off in the morning. Light exposure influences circadian rhythms somewhat—which is why you may have trouble sleeping after using screens at night—but if you maintain stable sleep and wake times, your internal clock should be similarly reliable.
___10___.
If you’re exhausted by the time Saturday arrives, you should select a midday nap rather than a marathon overnight sleep. Previous research has also linked naps to better, memory focus and creativity. The National Sleep Foundation says that just 20 minutes of napping is enough to leave you feeling refreshed, as long as you don’t nap too close to bedtime.
A.Napping is better than sleeping in
B.Many people think of sleep like a bank account
C.If you spend that extra time sleeping during the week
D.Since many people get less sleep than they need just about every weeknight
E.Preserving your circadian rhythms by napping may improve your sleeping quality
F.Experts have long said you can’t make up for lost sleep by sleeping more on your days off
G.It also disrupts your circadian clock, a system that regulates hormone levels to promote sleep

How Can I Fight Laziness?
Lazy people will never amount to anything in life. However, laziness can be defeated once a few changes have been made in your mind.
____16____ Many people lack sleep constantly, since they stay up too late and get up too early to prepare for work. These people have little motivation once they arrive home. By adjusting your sleep schedule to provide a few more hours of meaningful sleep, you can fight laziness throughout the day.

Couples and children may all have different energy levels, but laziness can be spread if not dealt with immediately.____19____ Be the first to collect and wash dishes after a meal.

Passage 8、(2022--2023学年度辽宁省沈阳市第二十中学高三期中考试)
Procrastination (拖延)makes people live under constant stress. Making changes will lead to positive results, like relieving stress and increasing the quality of work, family time and joy. But how to? ___36___
◆Acknowledge the need to change.
If you’re a master procrastinator, stop making excuses and acknowledge the reasons why procrastination is bad. ___37___
◆Identify and understand your feelings.
You may feel fearful about the size of a task, proud of your productivity, and anxious about your time. ___38___ However, could you break a huge project up into manageable tasks? You might need to say “no” more often to give the proper time and attention to the more important things. You can also set a time limit on your break, maybe 15 to 20 minutes.
◆ ___39___
If you find yourself with some free time and you need to convince yourself to start working on a difficult task, follow the five-minute rule. Force yourself to work on a task for just five minutes, with the understanding that you can quit after five minutes if you like. This simple mental trick is usually just to get you started. And it will often turn into much more than five minutes.

By starting, you get the juices flowing, allowing you to get more done than you anticipated. Additionally, you increase the quality of your work because every time you revise your thing, it gets better.

A.Use the five-minute rule.
B.These emotions are quite natural.
C.You might think of the possible results.
D.Here are some ways to beat procrastination.

38.【B】根据小标题“Identify and understand your feelings.(认识并理解你的感受)”可知,本段主题与感受和情绪相关;上文“You may feel fearful about the size of a task, proud of your productivity, and anxious about your time.(你可能会对任务的规模感到害怕,为自己的效率感到骄傲,为自己的时间感到焦虑)”提到了害怕、骄傲、和焦虑等情绪;下文“However, could you break a huge project up into manageable tasks?(然而,你能把一个庞大的项目分解成可管理的任务吗?)”则转而提到把庞大的项目分解成可管理的小任务。B项“These emotions are quite natural.(这些情绪是很自然的)”中的these emotions恰好指代上文的fearful、proud、anxious等情绪。故选B项。
39.【A】设空处为本段的小标题,需能概括本段主旨;下文“If you find yourself with some free time and you need to convince yourself to start working on a difficult task, follow the five-minute rule.(如果你发现自己有一些空闲时间,你需要说服自己开始做一个困难的任务,遵循五分钟规则)”提到了如果要说服自己开始做一个困难的任务,遵循五分钟规则。由此可知,本段主要与五分钟规则相关。A项“Use the five-minute rule.(使用五分钟规则)”能概括本段主旨。故选A项。
40.【G】根据小标题“Work on stuff earlier.(早点做事)”可知,本段主要与work earlier相关;下文“But remember: Just because you start working on something doesn’t mean you have to finish.(但请记住:你开始做某件事并不意味着你必须完成)”转而提到早点开始做某件事并不意味着必须完成。G项“For master procrastinators, the idea of working too early on a task is stupid.(对于拖延症大师来说,过早开始工作的想法是愚蠢的)”既符合work early的主题,也下文对应。故选G项。

【详情解析】
46.【B】根据上文“The way in which you achieve your goals, face challenges, and overcome failures depends largely on your levels of optimism. Not everyone sees life in the same way.(你实现目标、面对挑战和克服失败的方式很大程度上取决于你的乐观程度。不是每个人都以同样的方式看待生活)”以及后文提到的提高乐观水平的方法可知,空处承上启下,表明虽然不是每个人都能以同样乐观的态度面对生活,但是可以通过训练来提高人们的乐观程度。B项“然而你可以训练自己的思维来产生或保持乐观的心态。”符合语境,能够承上启下。故选B。
47.【E】根据上文“Change your negative thoughts. (改变你的消极想法)”以及“Your mind takes in negative memories and makes them bigger and more significant than they really are.( 你的大脑会吸收负面记忆,并使它们变得更大、更重要)”可知,空处为前文的结果,表明你的大脑会吸收负面记忆,所以我们都要客观地分析它们。E项“因此,每次你有负面想法时,都要更客观地分析和看待它们。”符合语境。E项中的“negative thoughts”进而前文“ negative memories ”相呼应。故选E。
48.【F】根据上文“To help your brain store these positive events, you should take time each week to analyze what you should be grateful for. (为了帮助你的大脑储存这些积极的事件,你应该每周花时间分析你应该感激什么)”可知,空处进一步说明我们如何记录我们所经历的积极方面,一个是每周花时间分析你应该感激什么,下一步就是让这些人知道你感激他们。F项“下一步是让你的爱人知道你爱他们,你感激他们。”符合语境。F项中的“you love them and that you’re grateful to them”是对这段主旨句“Express gratitude(表示感谢)”的进一步阐述。故选F。
