11、经济，一些政策已经被制定出来了。A. review复查，反思；B. reveal 揭示，透露；C. recover恢复；D. reserve预定，保留。横线后面的宾语为经济，再结合 “province hard hit by the disaster”（受到灾难重创的省份）可知，制定政策应该是要恢复这些省份的经济。故选C项。2._the changes we desire, we must be willing to behave in ways that promote them.A. CreateB. CreatingC. Having createdD. To create【答案】D【解

12、析】【详解】考查动词不定式。句意：为了创造我们想要的改变，我们必须愿意以促进改变的方式行事。分析句意可知，此处指“为了创造我们想要的改变”，表目的，应用动词不定式（to do）形式。故选D项。3.In the years to come, everyone will be able to take pride in_we responded to this challenge.A. whatB. whenC. thatD. how【答案】D【解析】【分析】【详解】考查名词性从句的宾语从句。句意：在未来的岁月里，每个人都会为我们如何应对挑战的方式感到自豪。分析句子，本句为复合句。其中短语take

13、 pride in对感到自豪，介词in 后的全部内容做介词的宾语。宾语从句we responded to this challenge.我们回应这个挑战，缺少方式状语，副词how表示方式，意为“怎样，如何”，符合句意。故选D项。4.At the online job fair, students can review job opportunities,_their CVs and have interviews remotely.A. drop offB. make upC. cut outD. put away【答案】A【解析】【详解】考查动词短语辨析。句意：在网上招聘会上，学生可以查看工

14、作机会，投递简历，远程面试。A. drop off放下、递交；B. make up编造；C. cut out切断；D. put away放好。根据空后的“their CVs and have interviews”可知此处表示“投递简历”，故A项正确。5. Fancy meeting you here! Are you a librarian? Not really. I_my volunteer effort until the new term begins.A. will just contributeB. have just contributedC. just contributeD

15、. am just contributing【答案】D【解析】【详解】考查时态。句意：很高兴在这儿见到你！你是图书馆管理员吗？并不是。我只是在做志愿者工作，一直做到新学期开始。根据语境和句中给出的时间状语until the new term begins可知，讲话者目前正在从事志愿者工作，表示说话时正在进行的动作，符合现在进行时的特点，要用现在进行时。故选D项。6.The project that we are working hard to see _next month will relieve the traffic pressure.A. to be completedB. compl

16、etingC. completedD. complete【答案】C【解析】【分析】【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：我们正在努力争取下个月完成的项目将缓解交通压力。分析句子可知，本句为含有定语从句的复合句，其中the project为先行词，在定语从句 we are working hard to see _next month中做see的宾语；根据see sth.done看到某事被做完，project和complete为动宾关系，所以使用过去分词作宾语补足语。选项C符合题意。故选C项。7.When Stanley finally made it to the lecture hall, the

17、professor_his speech for half an hour.A. had deliveredB. deliveredC. was deliveringD. has delivered【答案】A【解析】【分析】【详解】考查动词时态。句意： 当斯坦利终于来到演讲厅时，教授已经演讲半个小时了。根据句意，“deliver”这一动作发生在“made it”之前，when引导的时间状语从句表示过去发生的动作，故“发表演讲”是发生在“过去的过去”的动作，用过去完成时，故选A。【点睛】过去完成时用法解析：1、表示在过去某一时间或动作之前已经发生或完成的动作。 表示的时间是过去的过去 常与by

18、last year, by the time of yesterday,等连用。如：She said she had seen the film 4 times. 她说她看过这部电影4次。When Mr Li got to the classroom, all the students had begun reading. 当李老师到教室时，所有的学生都开始阅读了。2、表示从过去某一时间开始一直延续到过去另一时间的动作或状态。常与for (后跟段时间)或since (后跟点时间)等连用.如：She had worked in this school since it opened 25 yea

19、rs ago.自从这所学校25年前开办以来就一直在那里工作。8.The student is grateful to his English teacher, without_encouragement he wouldnt have pulled through.A. whatB. whoseC. whomD. which【答案】B【解析】【详解】考查定语从句。句意：这个学生很感激他的英语老师，没有老师的鼓励，他不会康复。分析句子可知，without_encouragement he wouldnt have pulled through是定语从句，先行词是his English teach

20、er，从句中作定语，修饰encouragement，故用关系代词whose。故选B。【点睛】定语从句中whose的用法whose引导的定语从句是语法重点，要学好whose引导的定语从句的用法，应注意以下六个方面。一、whose为who的所有格，作“某(些)人的”解，它所指代的先行词必须是人，其引导的定语从句修饰它的先行词，同时它本身在从句中作定语。This is the little girl whose parents were killed in the great earthquake.这就是在那次大地震中失去双亲的那个小姑娘。二、whose也可作which的所有格，作“某(些)物的”解

21、，它所指代的先行词必须是物，其语法功能同上。The company whose name was Notco was in Australia.那个名叫诺特可的公司设在澳大利亚。三、由于whose具有兼作who和 which的所有格的双重功能，故在指人时可用of whom代替whose，指物时可用of which代替whose。This kind of book is for children whose native language(=the native language of whom)is Chinese.这种书是给母语是汉语的儿童看的。9.Promoting the _of ene

22、rgy and carbon footprint reduction is an essential part of building an ecological civilization.A. consumptionB. conservationC. constitutionD. construction【答案】B【解析】【分析】【详解】考查名词词义辨析。句意：提升能源保护和减少碳足迹是建设生态文明的重要组成部分。A. consumption消费；B. conservation保护；避免浪费；C. constitution建立；组成；D. construction建筑；建造。根据下文的bui

23、lding an ecological civilization可知，能源保护是生态文化的一部分，故选B。10.The artists staged music and dances with Nantong features at the folk festival, winning applause_.A. at willB. at randomC. at intervalsD. at odds【答案】C【解析】【分析】【详解】考查固定短语辨析。句意：艺术家们在民间艺术节上表演了南通特色的歌舞，不时地赢得阵阵掌声。A. at will任意地；随意地；B. at random随机的；C. a

24、t intervals间或；不时；D. at odds有分歧；不一致。根据句意，表演不时地赢得掌声。故选C。11.It was in the Lake District, a tourist attraction in England_they met each other and became fast friends.A. whereB. whichC. whenD. that【答案】D【解析】【分析】【详解】考查强调句。句意：就是在湖区英格兰一处旅游胜地他们遇到了彼此并成为了朋友。分析句子结构可知，这里并非England或Lake District作先行词的定语从句，而是符合it is/

25、wasthat/who结构的强调句。强调的是介词短语。故选D项。【点睛】强调句与状语从句、定语从句等其他句型是比较容易混淆的，这里有一个重要的区分方法：区别强调句式与其他句子的关键是看去掉It is/was that/who后是否影响句子的结构与意义。如果去掉该结构不影响句子的完整性就是强调句。该小题中如果去掉It wasthat后句子就变为They met each other and became fast friends in the Lake District（省略插入语），显然结构与意义都是完整的，确实为强调句。12.Visitors who have booked tickets

26、online can show their ID cards or other_documents to enter the museum.A. blankB. validC. lameD. plain【答案】B【解析】【详解】考查形容词辨析。句意：在网上订票的游客可以出示身份证或其他有效证件进入博物馆。A. blank空白的； B. valid有效的；C. lame跛足的；D. plain朴素的。根据“their ID cards”可知此处表示“有效证件”，故B项正确。13.Under the regulation, restaurants and hotels shall stop off

27、ering throwaway items_customers request them.A. sinceB. onceC. unlessD. until【答案】C【解析】【分析】【详解】考查状语从句的连接词。句意：根据规定，餐馆和酒店应停止提供一次性物品，除非顾客要求。since作为连词，表示“自从”，引导时间状语从句，表示“因为”，引导原因状语从句； once 用作连词，既可以表示“条件”（= if, as long as），也可以表示“时间”（=as soon as）； unless意为“除非，如果不”，常用来引导条件状语从句；until作为连词，意为“直到”引导时间状语从句。分析句子可

28、知，如果顾客不要求的话，根据规定，餐馆和酒店应停止提供一次性物品。状语从句表示条件，结合选项看，选项C符合题意。故选C项。14.The application of AI technologies in health care industry is in an initial stage compared with_ in automatic driving.A. itB. thatC. thoseD. ones【答案】B【解析】【详解】考查代词。句意：人工智能技术在医疗产业中的应用相较于在自动驾驶领域的应用，还处在初始阶段。分析句子可知，空白处所指的仍是前句中的The applicatio

29、n of AI technologies，是不可数名词，这时要用that来指代已提过的名词以避免重复。故选B项。15. I will go to the bank to pay for the electricity bill. _? Actually, you can use Alipay.A. Why botherB. So whatC. Why notD. What for【答案】A【解析】【分析】【详解】考查情景交际。句意：我要去银行交电费。何必麻烦呢？实际上，你可以使用支付宝。A. Why bother何苦，何必麻烦；B. So what那又怎样？C. Why not为什么不呢？D.

30、 What for为何？根据语境，空白处应该是认为去银行交电费太麻烦了，且后面给出了简单的方法，结合选项，故选A。第二节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1分，满分20分）请认真阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。I moved to a new city and took a job in marketing.

50、ases to a ceremonial temple set in the mountain face. These ruins mark the start of the 4-day Inca Trail to Machu Picchu, one of the worlds most rewarding hikes. A quicker way to reach the remote Inca city is catching the train to the riverside town of Aguas and then jumping on a bus into the misty

51、mountains.Once the clouds rise from the mountain ridge above the Sacred Valley, the true splendor of Machu Picchu is finally revealed. Its a humbling experience to stand at an altitude of nearly 8,000 feet, and gaze down at the Inca city below. Overlooking the glorious ruins, its easy to imagine the

52、 prosperity (紧荣) this peak must have been almost 600 years ago.Its one of the worlds greatest mysteries what became of the Incas who inhabited Machu Picchu.What was once major defense works in the largest empire on Earth was slowly swallowed by the jungle, only to be uncovered a century ago.

53、a dynasty has come and gone, but Incan families still survive in the highlands.

57、 been almost 600 years ago.（当乌云从神圣山谷上方的山脊升起时，马丘比丘真正的壮丽终于显露出来了。站在近8000英尺的高空俯视印加城是一种令人谦卑的体验。俯瞰着辉煌的废墟，很容易想象600年前的繁荣景象。）由此推断出，马丘比丘的魅力在于它的自然风光和文化。故选C项。【37题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段第一句“Its one of the worlds greatest mysteries what became of the Incas who inhabited Machu Picchu.”可知，居住在马丘比丘的印加人后来怎么样了，一直是世界一大未解之谜。故选D项。

58、BIn their book, Nine Lies About Work, Buckingham and Goodall make a surprising claim: they argue that giving people feedback (反馈)in the sense of telling them what you think theyre doing right or wrong, and how to do it better-is never worthwhile. This runs counter to a current corporate trend for ra

59、dical candour, for example at Netflix where, according to recent reports, employees failings are cruelly sunshined in front of others. When someone is fired, hundreds of their former colleagues might receive an email, cataloguing their flaws (缺陷). But it also contradicts an assumption most of us bri

60、ng to our lives as parents and friends-that its helpful, at least sometimes, and providing you do it nicely, to explain to people where theyre making mistakes.Buckingham and Goodall dont just claim you should keep that knowledge to yourself: they claim that you dont possess it, and that, in fact, yo

61、u probably dont know how a failing employee could most effectively change. Its an old cliche (陈词滥调) of marital advice that you should use I-statementsrather than you-statements, telling the other person how their behaviour makes you feel, rather than attacking them for being selfish and incompetent.

62、 The standard theory is that you-statements cause people to respond defensively. But another is that youre a terrible judge of whether someone is selfish or incompetent. As Buckingham writes: The only area in which humans are an unimpeachable (无懈可击的) source of truth is that of their own feelings and

63、 experiences.Plenty of research shows were particularly bad at rating people against abstract criteria, which means one common feature of workplace performance reviews- assessing whether an employee is, say, a strategic thinker or team player-is essentially pointless.We should replace this sort of j

64、udgment with reactions. Dont tell others what you think of their skills, or how good you think they are; instead, focus on describing your experience of their work. Youre no good at judging how someone else should change their approach to delivering presentations. But youre the authority on whether

65、a given presentation was persuasive or boring to you.And positive reactions, they show, work better than negative ones: we excel when people who know us and care about us tell us what they experience and what they feel, and in particular when they see something within us that really works. Theres a

66、deep point here- that the best kind of praise focuses on how someone made you feel, not on evaluating their talent.

69、y expectations.【答案】38. A 39. C 40. B【解析】这是一篇说明文。Buckingham和Goodall在他们的书Nine Lies About Work中提出：从告诉他们你认为他们做的是对是错的意义上讲，人们的反馈是没有价值的。这与当前“激进坦率”的共同趋势背道而驰。【38题详解】词义猜测题。根据下划线单词后的to explain to people where theyre making mistakes可知，向人们解释他们在哪里犯错。因此it指代的是向人们解释他们在哪里犯错；根据第一段they argue that giving people feedback

70、 (反馈)in the sense of telling them what you think theyre doing right or wrong, and how to do it better-is never worthwhile.可知，他们认为，从告诉他们你认为他们做的是对是错的意义上讲，人们的反馈是没有价值的。因此，向人们解释他们在哪里犯错是在做反馈。所以，it指代的是给人们反馈。故选A。【39题详解】推理判断题。根据第二段Buckingham and Goodall dont just claim you should keep that knowledge to yours

71、elf: they claim that you dont possess it, and that, in fact, you probably dont know how a failing employee could most effectively change.可知，Buckingham和Goodall不是只认为你应该对这些内容保密，他们认为你并不拥有这些内容。事实上，你可能不知道一个失败的员工如何才能最有效地改变。由此可知，他们认为反馈是主观的，只是说话者自己的观点；根据第三段Plenty of research shows were particularly bad at ra

72、ting people against abstract criteria, which means one common feature of workplace performance reviews- assessing whether an employee is, say, a strategic thinker or team player-is essentially pointless可知，大量研究显示，我们特别不擅长用抽象的标准来评价人，这就意味着，本质上，评估员工是否是战略思考者或团队成员，这样的具有共性的工作场所绩效评估都有是毫无意义的。由此由此可知，反馈是相同的，缺乏独

73、特性。所以，反馈没有价值是因为它是主观的，缺乏独特性。故选C。【40题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段Theres a deep point here- that the best kind of praise focuses on how someone made you feel, not on evaluating their talent. Praise them for inspiring you, persuading you, or helping you grasp a complex issue.可知，有一个很重要的点：最好的赞美专注于某人给你的感觉上，而不是评价他们的才能。赞

74、扬他们鼓舞你，说服你，或帮助你理解了一个复杂的问题。因此，B选项“你演讲中的创意给了我灵感。”是对别人最合适的评论。故选B。CBirds use vocalizations to attract mates, defend territories, and recognize fellow members of their species. But while we know a lot about how variations in vocalizations play out between populations of songbirds, its far less clear how

88、 whom vocalizations are more important than visual signals-and finds that differences in habitat, rather than geographic isolation (隔离) or other factors, seem to be the key driver of variation in the sounds these birds use to communicate.一项新的研究：澳大利亚鸟类学发展中心研究了来自澳大利亚四个殖民地的小企鹅叫声的差异对于这些夜间鸟类来说，发声比视觉信号更重要

89、发现差异在于栖息地，而不是地理隔离或其他因素，似乎是这些鸟类用来交流的声音变化的关键驱动力。可以得出企鹅的叫声受到它们栖息地的影响，选项C符合题意。故选C项。【42题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段Diane Colombelli-Negrel and Rachel Smale of Australias Flinders University recorded calls from four Little Penguin populations across a small area of South Australia, one of which had previously been sho

91、为了证明研究结论，研究人员是通过检测企鹅对录制的声音进行测试的。所以选项A符合题意。故选A项。【43题详解】推理判断题。根据第三段Penguins living in open habitats produced lower-frequency calls than those living in habitats with thicker vegetation-the opposite of the trend typically observed in songbirds. The authors think that agonistic calls may be subject to d

92、ifferent selective pressures because theyre used in close encounters with other birds rather than to communicate across distances, and could also be influenced by variation in the noise level of wind and surf.生活在开放栖息地的企鹅比生活在植被较厚的栖息地的企鹅发出的叫声频率更低，这与通常在鸣鸟身上观察到的趋势相反。作者认为，竞争性叫声可能受到不同的选择压力，因为它们用于与其他鸟类的近距离

93、接触，而不是跨越距离进行交流，还可能受到风浪噪音水平变化的影响。可以看出，不同栖息地企鹅的叫声频率不一样，可能受到风浪噪音水平变化的影响。因而，环境因素对企鹅的声音会有一定的影响。选项B符合题意。故选B项。【44题详解】推理判断题。由文章第四段 “I was excited to find that in seabirds, as most of our knowledge in this area comes from studies on songbirds, says Colombelli-Negrel. This new research suggests that many fact

95、Negrel说：“我很兴奋地发现，在海鸟身上，我们在这一领域的大部分知识来自于对鸣禽的研究。 这项新的研究表明，许多因素影响鸟类的叫声变化，这也取决于叫声的功能。 这项研究强调了许多问题仍然存在，研究需要调查一个以上的因素，结合呼叫的功能，以充分了解海鸟的呼叫变化。”由此可以看出，研究人员将对企鹅叫声的差异进行更广泛的研究，选项C符合题意。故选C项。DIm Dina Asher-Smith.

At 23, I became the first British woman to win a worl

113、d championship sprinting (短跑) title.”可知，作者之前用打猎比喻，表明在训练中喜欢和男孩子们竞争，同时要和年龄大过她的女运动员竞争，而后面则指明了自己目前获得的成就，已经是世锦赛的短跑冠军了，显然，划线句“但猎人有一天也会成为猎物”就指她自己通过努力，追上了那些曾经比自己强的选手。故选C项。【46题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段最后两句“I do have a voice in my head that tells me if Im not good at things, but it doesnt make me feel negative about mys

114、elf. I use it to identify where I can improve and then I just keep going to training every day.”可知，作者不会为自己有缺点而感到难为情或气馁，而是通过认清自己的弱点，加以锻炼、改进，从而将其克服。故选B项。【47题详解】细节理解题。根据第三段中“They gave me opportunities to try whatever I was interested in.”可知，作者的父母会给予她一切机会让她尝试任何感兴趣的东西，与D选项“帮助她探索兴趣”含义一致。故选D项。【48题详解】推理判断题。

115、根据第四段第三、四句“Along with my parents, the three of them always emphasized that they just wanted me to be happy. They never pushed me too early.”可知，作者的教练和父母始终向作者强调希望她能快乐，结合划线句“他们把Dina看作一个跑步者之前首先看作一个人”，也就是尊重她、爱护她，以她个人的幸福为先。由此判断出划线句的词表明阿瑟-史密斯的父母和教练把她的个人幸福放在首位。故选A项。【49题详解】细节理解题。根据第五段第一句“Being as prepared as

116、 I can be is crucial as it keeps me calm and able to deliver in the moment.”可知，校园生活让作者能够冷静下来，专注于此时此刻，这让她能为自己的运动员身份做好准备。故选C项。【50题详解】主旨大意题。文章以金牌短跑运动员Dina Asher-Smith的口吻，讲述了她的成长历程、心态、父母和教练、学校生活等，而这些无疑都是使得她能获得今天辉煌成就的原因，A选项“成为金牌短跑运动员需要什么”符合文章主旨。故选A项。第四部分 任务型阅读（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）请认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空

Even those who were married and claimed vast networks of friends struggled to come up with someone who they

118、 felt truly listened to them.Its fueling what public health officials are calling a worldwide epidemic of loneliness, which increases the risk of dying young. Indeed, studies link loneliness with heart disease, stroke, dementia and poor immune function.To fight loneliness people are told to “Get out

119、 there! Join a club, take up a sport, volunteer, or invite people to dinner.” How do you connect with people once youre “out there” and “face-to-face”? Truly listening to someone is a skill many seem to have forgotten or perhaps never learned in the first place.Listening goes beyond hearing what peo

120、ple say. Its also paying attention to how they say it and what they do while they are saying it, in what context, and how what they say resonates within you.Listening is not about simply holding your peace while someone else holds forth. Quite the opposite. A lot of listening has to do with how you

121、respond-the degree to which you elicit clear expression of another s thoughts and, in the process, express your own clearly. It starts with an openness and willingness to follow another persons story without presumption or getting sidetracked by whats going on in your own head.Good listeners ask goo

122、d questions. Everyone is interesting if you ask the right questions. If someone seems dull or uninteresting, its on you. Good questions dont have a hidden agenda of fixing, saving, advising, convincing or correcting. They dont begin with “Dont you think?”or “Wouldnt you agree?” and they definitely d

123、ont end with Right? The idea is to find out more about the speakers point of view, not to influence it.Also avoid asking appraising questions like “What do you do for a living?” and “What part of town do you live in?” and “Are you married?” These are not honest attempts to get to know people so much

124、 as rank them in the social hierarchy.

130、多参加各种各样的社交活动真正地倾听彼此。文章还说明了如何去倾听，告诉我们倾听是一种需要不断练习的技能，好的听力会提高我们的判断能力，而不好的听力会限制我们对世界的理解。【51题详解】考查名词。根据第一段中Even those who were married and claimed vast networks of friends struggled to come up with someone who they felt truly listened to them.可知即使是那些已婚且自称有大量朋友人，也很难找到一个真正倾听他们心声的人。由此可知，今天的人们发现很难找到一个真正的倾听者。

131、根据上文a true可知应填单数名词listener，表示“倾听者”。故填listener。【52题详解】考查形容词或比较级。根据第二段中Its fuelling what public health officials are calling a worldwide epidemic of loneliness, which increases the risk of dying young.可知这加剧了公共卫生官员所说的全球范围内的孤独流行病，增加了英年早逝的风险。由此可知，找不到真正的倾听者会增加孤独感，可能会导致过早死亡。表示“早期死亡”或“过早死亡”短语为an earlier/ear

132、ly death。故填earlier/ early。【53题详解】考查动词语态。根据第三段中To fight loneliness people are told to “Get out there! Join a club, take up a sport, volunteer, or invite people to dinner.”可知为了战胜孤独，人们被告知“走出去!加入一个俱乐部，参加一项运动，做志愿者，或者邀请别人吃饭。”由此可知，建议人们积极参与各种社会活动，真正倾听彼此。此处作谓语且表示“参与”短语为be involved/engaged in。故填involved/ enga

133、ged。【54题详解】考查动词。根据第四段Listening goes beyond hearing what people say. Its also paying attention to how they say it and what they do while they are saying it, in what context, and how what they say resonates within you.可知倾听不仅仅是听别人说什么。也要注意他们说话的方式，说话时他们做了什么，在什么语境下，以及他们的话如何在你心中产生共鸣。由此可知，注意力要集中在说话人身上，也要集中在

134、说话的内容上。表示“集中于”短语为concentrate/focus on，且此处为祈使句句首动词用原形，要大写。故填Concentrate/ Focus。【55题详解】考查副词。根据第五段中It starts with an openness and willingness to follow another persons story without presumption or getting sidetracked by whats going on in your own head.可知它以一种开放的心态和意愿开始，不做任何推测，也不被自己的想法所左右。由此可知，要真实地/开放地/欣

135、然地跟随别人的故事，不做任何假设，也不分散注意力。此处修饰动词Follow应用副词，且表示“真实地”，“开放地”，“欣然地”副词为truly/ openly/ willingly。故填truly/ openly/ willingly。【56题详解】考查动词。根据倒数第四段中The idea is to find out more about the speakers point of view, not to influence it.可知这样做是为了更多地了解演讲者的观点，而不是去影响它。由此可知，问一些好的问题意味着探索说话者的观点。表示“探索”动词为explore，且根据上文mean t

136、o do sth.可知应填动词原形。故填explore。【57题详解】考查形容词。根据倒数第三段中It makes people strongly defensive and is likely to reduce the conversation to a CV recitation.可知它会使人们产生强烈的防御心理，并有可能将谈话简化为背诵简历。由此可知，避免问评估性的问题，这会让人们不愿意进行开放和深入的谈话或产生防御心理。根据上文make people quite可知此处应填形容词作宾语补足语，且表示“不情愿的”“防御的”形容词为reluctant/ unwilling/ defens

137、ive。故填reluctant/ unwilling/ defensive。【58题详解】考查动词。根据倒数第二段中Listening to people in this way is also essential to reaching compromise. You might not agree with them, but you gain understanding about their background and influences.可知以这种方式倾听他人也是达成妥协的必要条件。你可能不同意他们的观点，但你可以了解他们的背景和影响。由此可知，通过问一些具有拓展性的问题可以缩小

138、差距，拉近彼此之间的距离，并找到共同点。表示“缩小差距”短语为bridge/ narrow gaps根据上文Listen to people by asking expansive questions to可知此处为不定式作目的状语，故填动词原形。故填bridge/ narrow。【59题详解】考查名词。根据最后一段中Listening is a skill and, like any skill, it degrades if you dont do it enough.可知倾听是一种技能，就像其他技能一样，如果你做得不够，它就会退化。由此可知，倾听是一种需要不断练习的技能。结合上文cons

139、tant为形容词修饰名词，可知应填不可数名词practice。故填practice。【60题详解】考查动词。根据最后一段中The more people you listen to, the more aspects of humanity you will recognize and the better your judgments. To listen poorly, selectively, or not at all, will stop you from having a better understanding of the world.可知你听的人越多，你就会认识到人性的更多方

140、面，你的判断就会越好。不听，有选择地听，或者根本不听，都将阻碍你更好地理解这个世界。由此可知，好的倾听会提高我们的判断能力，而糟糕的倾听会限制我们对世界的理解。此处作谓语表示“限制”应用动词limit/restrict，根据上文will可知为一般将来时，故填动词原形。故填limit/ restrict。第五部分 书面表达（满分25分）61.请阅读下面文字，并按照要求用英语写一篇150词左右的文章。Li Jiang: Have you heard this?
