(2024·南京市二模,D)
While waiting to pick up a friend at an airport in Portland, Oregon, I had one of those lifechanging experiences that you hear other people talk about—the kind that happens to you unexpectedly. To me, this happened and was only two feet away from me.
Locating my friend among the passengers, I noticed a man coming toward me carrying two light bags. He stopped right next to me to greet his family.
First he walked to his youngest son (maybe 6 years old) as he laid down his bags. They gave each other a long, loving hug. As they separated enough to look in each other's face, I heard the father say,“It's so good to see you, son.
I missed you so much!” His son smiled somewhat shyly, and replied softly,“Me, too, Dad!”
Then the man stood up, gazed into the eyes of his oldest son (maybe 9 or 10) and while cupping his son's face in his hands said, “You're already quite a young man. I love you very much, Zach!” They too hugged a most loving, tender hug.
While this was happening, a baby girl (perhaps one or oneandahalfyear old) was squirming (扭动) excitedly in her mother's arms, never once taking her little eyes off the wonderful sight of her returning father. The man said,“Hi, baby girl!” as he gently took the child from her mother. He quickly kissed her face all over and then held her close to his chest while rocking her from side to side. The little girl instantly relaxed and simply laid her head on his shoulder, motionless in pure contentment.
After several moments, he handed his daughter to his oldest son and declared,“I've saved the best for last!” and went to give his wife the longest, most passionate kiss I ever remember seeing. He gazed into her eyes for several seconds and then silently mouthed, “I love you so much!” They stared into each other's eyes, beaming big smiles at one another, while holding both hands.
For an instant they reminded me of newlyweds, but I knew by the age of their kids that they couldn't possibly be. I puzzled about it for a moment then realized how totally attentive I was in the wonderful display of unconditional love not more than an arm's length away from me.
I suddenly felt uncomfortable, as if I was invading something sacred, but was amazed to hear my own voice nervously ask,“Wow! How long have you two been married?”
“Been together fourteen years total, married twelve of those.” he replied, without breaking his gaze from his lovely wife's face. “Well then, how long have you been away?” I asked. The man finally turned and looked at me, still beaming his joyous smile. “Two whole days!”
Two days? I was stunned. I had assumed he'd been gone for at least several weeks—if not months. I know my expression betrayed me. “I hope my marriage is still that passionate after twelve years!”
The man suddenly stopped smiling.
He looked me straight in the eye, and with forcefulness that burned right into my soul, he told me something that left me a different person, “Don't hope, friend... decide!” Then he flashed me his wonderful smile again, shook my hand and said,“God bless!”
With that, he and his family turned and walked away together.
I was still watching that exceptional man and his special family walk just out of sight when my friend came up to me and asked, “What'cha looking at?” Without hesitating, and with a curious sense of certainty, I replied,“My future!”

B
(2024·乌鲁木齐诊断)Most Chinese people expect to relax and enjoy themselves during the Golden Week. But for those trying to go someplace, it may seem more disappointment than pleasure. This year, the severe traffic jam resulted in a roadside wedding.
The suffering of being stuck in traffic was probably most strongly felt by Lv Kangzhou and his bride Yan Mengxia. By tradition, the groom drove early in the morning to the bride's home in Zhejiang Province in East China to pick her up along with her family and take them to his family's hometown for the wedding. By 4 pm, Lv's wedding was 90 minutes away, but his car had not moved an inch for a long time. Lv contacted the local radio to explain his difficult situation and ask for a traffic forecast. The radio host told Lv there was no way he could hold his wedding on time and offered to hold their wedding on the air. At 5:30 pm, Lv and his bride said their vows on the side of the road, and Lv's family and friends witnessed the ceremony by listening to the radio.
Lv wasn't the only person stuck in the Golden Week crowds. According to the state news agency Xinhua, 11.7 million people traveled by train on Wednesday. It calculated that 120,000 people gathered at Tian'anmen Square in Beijing to watch the flagraising ceremony. Last year, the Forbidden City in Beijing hosted 175,000 tourists on a single day during the Golden Week, and the number is expecting to be even bigger this year.
Chinese Internet users routinely complain about the Golden Week holiday every year. An Internet user Tuzhi said on Sina Weibo: “On the Great Wall, I'm holding your hand, but I cannot see your face.”
.By tradition, the wedding was supposed to take place in ________.
A.Zhejiang Province
B.a hotel
C.the bride's hometown
D.the groom's hometown
2.Lv, the groom, called the local radio because he wanted to ________.
A.ask for help
B.hold their wedding on the air
C.complain about the traffic conditions
D.find someone to pick them up
3.What does the text mainly intend to tell us?
A.A successful roadside wedding during the Golden Week.
B.The popularity of traveling around during the Golden Week.
C.The crowded situation in China during the Golden Week.
D.The cause of the heavy traffic in China during the Golden Week.
4.Where does this text probably come from?

1.解析:选D 细节理解题根据第二段第二句“By tradition ... for the wedding.”可知按照传统婚礼应该在新郎的家乡举行故答案选D解析:选A 细节理解题根据第二段第四句“Lv contacted the local radio to explain his difficult situation and ask for a traffic forecast.”可知Lv打电话给广播电台是为了寻求帮助故答案选A解析:选C 主旨大意题纵观全文文章主要介绍了在“黄金周”期间全国各地人满为患的情况故答案选C解析:选A 文章出处题纵观全文可知文章主要通过对一场路边婚礼的叙述说明了“黄金周”期间全国各地人满为患的情况由此可推知文章可能摘自报纸故选A项Working with a group of baboons (狒狒) in the Namibian desert,Dr.Alecia Carter of the Department of Zoology,Cambridge University set baboons learning tasks involving a novel food and a familiar food,hidden in a box.Some baboons were given the chance to watch another baboon who already knew how to solve the task,while others had to learn for themselves.To work out how brave or anxious the baboons were,Dr.Carter presented them either with a novel food or a threat in the form of a model of a poisonous snake.
She found that personality had a major impact on learning.The braver baboons learnt,but the shy ones did not learn the task although they watched the baboon perform the task of finding the novel food just as long as the brave ones did.In effect,despite being made aware of what to do,they were still too shy to do what the experienced baboon did.
The same held true for anxious baboons compared with calm ones.The anxious individuals learnt the task by observing others while those who were relaxed did not,even though they spent more time watching.
This mismatch between collecting social information and using it shows that personality plays a key role in social learning in animals,something that has previously been ignored in studies on how animals learn to do things.The findings are significant because they suggest that animals may perform poorly in cognitive (认知的) tasks not because they aren't clever enough to solve them,but because they are too shy or nervous to use the social information.
The findings may impact how we understand the formation of culture in societies through social learning.If some individuals are unable to get information from others because they don't associate with the knowledgeable individuals,or they are too shy to use the information once they have it,information may not travel between all group members,preventing the formation of a culture based on social learning.
.What is the first paragraph mainly about?
A.The design of Dr.Carter's research.
B.The results of Dr.Carter's research.
C.The purpose of Dr.Carter's research.
D.The significance of Dr.Carter's research.
.According to the research,which baboons are more likely to complete a new learning task?
A.Those that have more experience.
B.Those that can avoid potential risks.
C.Those that like to work independently.
D.Those that feel anxious about learning.
.Which best illustrates the “mismatch” mentioned in Paragraph 4?
A.Some baboons are intelligent but slow in learning.
B.Some baboons are shy but active in social activities.
C.Some baboons observe others but don't follow them.
D.Some baboons perform new tasks but don't concentrate.
4.Dr.Carter's findings indicate that our culture might be formed through ________.
A.storing information
B.learning from each other
C.understanding different people
D.travelling between social groups
答案:
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇科普说明文。剑桥大学的一些研究人员通过对狒狒的研究发现,影响狒狒学习成效的因素不是它们的智力,而是其性格以及对学习的渴望程度。这一研究结果也适用于人类社会:如果我们不善于与他人沟通或太胆怯而不能利用所得到的信息,那么会阻碍以社会学习为基础的文化的形成。
.A 解析:推理判断题。第一段描述了研究人员如何开展这一研究的具体细节:把新奇的食物和熟悉的食物藏在一个盒子里,有些狒狒有机会观看另外一只狒狒是如何完成任务的,而另外一些狒狒则不得不自学完成任务,因此选A项“卡特博士研究的设计”,而非研究的“结果”“目的”或“重要性”。
.D 解析:细节理解题。由文章第二段中The braver baboons learnt,but the shy ones did not learn...及第三段中The anxious individuals learnt...while those who were relaxed did not...这些对实验的描述可知D项“那些渴望学习的狒狒”符合题意。
.C 解析:推理判断题。该词所在上文,即第二、三段提到在观察了别的狒狒之后,勇敢的、渴望学习的狒狒学到本领,而害羞的狒狒学了却不像别的狒狒那样去做;再根据between collecting social information and using it可知与“收集”和“使用”对应的是“观察别人但不跟着做”,即C项。
.B 解析:细节理解题。最后一段首句The findings may impact how we understand the formation of culture in societies through social learning.意为“研究结果可能会影响我们如何理解社会文化的形成,该文化的形成是通过社会学习获得的”。换言之,作者认为我们的文化是通过social learning而形成的,与B项“互相学习”相呼应,而非“储存信息”“理解不同的人”或“在社会群体间传播”。
