2024年高一英语阅读理解专题素质拓展主题2：Zeigarnik效应【核心阅读材料选材：浙江省杭州市高级中学20232024学年上学期期末考试高一英语】①No one likes interruption. We are born to seek balance and order. No matter what it is that you are doing, being interrupted involves a forceful stop midway and then having to reenter your former state, sometimes with great difficulty. Popular belief has it that interruption breaks the flow of your thinking and affects productivity negatively, and so it is advisable that you have an uninterrupted session of intensive work before your next break.②However, a Russian psychologist, Bluma Zeigarnik, might tell you otherwise. The connection between interruption and memory drew her attention when she was dining in a restaurant. She noticed how the waitresses had an amazing memory of the detailed orders yet to be paid for, but little memory of the orders that were already pleted.③Back in her laboratory, she conducted studies in which subjects were required to plete various puzzles. Some of the subjects were interrupted during the tasks. All the subjects were then asked to describe what tasks they had done. It turns out that adults remembered the interrupted tasks 90% better than the pleted tasks, and that children were even more likely to recall the unpleted tasks. To put it another way, unpleted tasks will stay on your mind until you finish them!④In parison to tasks that were already finished and ones that we haven’t even started, halfdone projects are highlighted in the mental todo list our brains draw up for us. Zeigarnik described this finding in the late 1920s, which was later called Zeigarnik effect. One possible explanation is that with interrupted tasks, we are longing for them to be pleted, in order to regain a sense of balance. Finishing them also means that we can finally clear up the mental backlog and give the space to more uping tasks.⑤Zeigarnik’s effect can be found everywhere, especially used in media and advertising. Have you ever wondered why cliffhangers work so well or why you just can’t get yourself to stop watching that series on Netflix? Ernest Hemingway once said about writing a novel, “It is the wait until the next day that is hard to get through.” So next time, when you are interrupted, appreciate it and take advantage of it to promote your productivity.【核心材料知识深挖】这篇文章探讨了干扰对人们思维和生产力的影响，以及Zeigarnik效应。

chemistry beforeD．Charlie failed in making the experimentEIn order to know a foreign language thoroughly（完全地），four things are necessary．First，we must understand the language when we hear it spoken．Secondly，we must be able to speak it ourselves，with confidence （自信）and without hesitation（犹豫）．Thirdly，we must do much reading．Finally，we must be able to write it．We must be able to make sentences that are correct in grammar．There are no shortcuts to success in language learning．A good memory is a great help，but it is not enough only to memorize the rules from a grammar book．It is not much learning by heart long lists（一览表）of words and their meanings，studying the dictionary and so on．We must learn by using the language．If we are pleased with a few rules we have memorized，we are not really learning the language．We must “learn through use．” Practice is important．We must practise speaking and writing the language whenever we can．21．The most important things to learn a foreign language are ＿＿＿＿＿.A．understanding and speakingB．listening，speaking，reading and writingC．writing and understandingD．memorizing and listening22．Someone hears and writes English very well，but he speaks it very badly．This is because ＿＿＿＿＿．A．he doesn't understand the language when he hears it spokenB．he doesn't have a good memoryC．he always remembers lists of words and their meaningsD．he often hesitates（犹豫）to practise speaking it23．One can never learn a foreign language well by ＿＿＿＿＿．A．doing much practice B．studying the dictionaryC．learning through use D．using the language 24．Which is the most important in learning a foreign language？A．A good memory．B．Speaking．C．Practice．D．Writing．25．“Learn through use” means ＿＿＿＿＿＿．A．we use a language in order to learn itB．we learn a foreign language in order to use itC．we can learn a language well while we are keeping using it D．B and C．2高一英语阅读训练（2）AWhat is language for？Some people seem to think it's for practicing grammar rules and learning lists of words—the longer the lists，the better．That's wrong．Language is for the exchange（交流）of ideas and information．It's meaningless knowing all about a language if you can't use it freely．Many students I have met know hundreds of grammar rules，but they can't speak correctly or fluently（流利地）．They are afraid of making mistakes．One shouldn't be afraid of making mistakes when speaking a foreign language．Native speakers make mistakes and break rules，too．Bernard Saw once wrote，“Foreigners often speak English too correctly．” But the mistakes that native speakers make are different from those that Chinese students make．They're English mistakes in the English language．And if enough native speakers break a rule，it is no longer a rule．What used to be wrong becomes right．People not only make history，they make language．But a people can only make its own language．It can't make another people's language．So Chinese students of English should pay attention to grammar，but they shouldn't overdo（做过头）it．They should put communication（交际）first．1．Language is used to ＿＿＿＿＿．A．express oneself B．practise grammar rulesC．talk with foreigners only D．learn lists of words2．Generally，when an American or an Englishman speaks English，he ＿＿＿＿＿．A．never makes mistakes B．often makes mistakesC．can't avoid making mistakes D．always makes mistakes 3．“Foreigners often spea k English too correctly．” This sentence means that ＿＿．A．foreigners speak correct EnglishB．foreigners speak incorrect EnglishC．foreigners speak English according to the grammar rulesD．foreigners never make mistakes when they speak English4．If too many native speakers break a rule，＿＿＿＿＿＿．A．what they use will become right B．they are against the lawC．they should say sorry to others D．they will become heroes 5．When we speak a foreign language，we should ＿＿＿＿＿＿．A．speak in Chinese way B．speak by the rulesC．speak to native speakers D．not be afraid of making mistakesBMr and Mrs Gordon were sitting on the sand，reading their magazines．Mr Gordon was too stingy（吝啬）to rent（租）a chair．Their twelve－year－old daughter，Sandra，was playing at the water's edge．Suddenly a huge wave lifted Sandra up and carried her out tosea．Fortunately（幸运的是），a lifeguard（救生员）was on duty and he saw the wave carry Sandra away．He ran along the beach and dived into the sea．He swam quickly to where the girl，with her head only just above the water，was shouting for help．She was very frightened．When the lifeguard reached her she struggled（挣扎）with him，as drowning（即将淹死的）people often do．However，he was a skilful lifeguard and quickly took hold of her and swam with her back to the beach．By the time he reached it，Mr and Mrs Gordon had realized what had happened．They had run down to the water's edge．Neither of them could swim．They just stood in the shallow water，and worried about their daughter．Had the lifeguard reached her in time？Fortunately，he had．“That was quick work，young man，”Mr Gor don said．He turned to his wife，“Give the lifeguard a dollar．” “A dollar！” Sandra cried．“Dad，how can you give him a dollar！He saved my life．I was half dead．” “Quite right，girl ” Mr Gordon said，pleased by his daughter's awareness（知道）of the value of money．He turned to his wife again and said，“She's right．She was only half dead．Give him fifty cents．”6．What happened to Sandra？A．She ran into the sea．B．Her life was saved by a lifeguard．C．She was drowned．D．She died．7．What would probably have happened to Sandra if the lifeguard had not been on the beach？A．Her father would have saved her．B．Her mother would have saved her．C．She would have swum back to the beach．D．She would have been drowned．8．What did Mr and Mrs Gordon do when Sandra was carried out to sea by the wave？A．They shouted to the lifeguard．B．They dived into the water．C．Perhaps they were reading magazines．D．They offered the lifeguard money to save Sandra．9．Why was Sandra angry with her father？A．He did not give the lifeguard any money．B．He did not swim out to save her．C．He did not show the lifeguard hearty thankfulness．D．He gave the lifeguard too much money．10．Why was Mr Gordon pleased with her daughter？A．She was safe again．B．She was polite to the lifeguard．C．He thought she did not want him to give the life-guard too much money．D．She gave the lifeguard fifty cents．CAs one comes to some crossroads，he or she sees a sign which says that drivers have to stop when they come to the main road ahead．At other crossroads，drivers have to go slow，but they do not actually have to stop （unless，of course，there is something coming along the main road）；and at still others，they do not have either to stop or to go slow，because they are themselves on the main road．Mr Williams，who was always a very careful driver，was driving home from work one evening when he came to a crossroad．It had a “Slow” sign．He slowed down when he came to the main road，looked both ways to see that nothing was coming，and then drove across without stopping completely．At once he heard a police whistle，so he pulled into the side of the road and stopped．A policeman walked over to him with a notebook and a pen in his hand and said，“You didn't stop at that crossing．”“But the sign there doesn't say 'stop'”，answered Mr Williams．“It just says 'Slow'，and I did go slow．”The policeman looked around him，and a look of surprise came over hisface．Then he put his notebook and pen away，scratched his head and said，“Well，I'm in the wrong street！”11．Mr Williams was driving ＿＿＿＿one evening．A．to a party B．to his officeC．home after work D．to work from home12．When he was stopped by a policeman，he ＿＿＿＿＿＿＿．A．was driving at a high speed B．was driving on the main road C．was going to stop his car D．was driving slowly 13．Though slowly，Mr Williams continued driving at

words．A．angry B．surprised C．upset D．puzzled 15．Looking round Mr Williams，the policeman was surprised because ＿＿＿＿．A．he met a mad manB．he realized that he himself was mistakenC．Mr Williams dared to speak to him like thatD．Mr Williams would not apologize to himDIn Canada you can find dogs，cats，horses，etc．in almost every family．These are their pets．People love these pets and have them as their good friends．Before they keep them in their houses，they take them to animal hospitals to give them injections（注射）so that they won't carry disease．They have special animal food stores，though they can get animal food in almost every kind of store．Some people spend around two hundred Canadian dollars a month on animal food．When you visit people's houses，they would be very glad to show you their pets and they are very proud of them．You will also find that almost every family has a bird feeder in their garden．All kinds of birds are welcomed to come and have a good meal．They are free to come and go and nobody is allowed to kill any animal in Canada．They have a law against killing wild animals．If you killed an animal，you would be punished．If an animal happened to get run over by a car，people would be very sad about it．People in Canada have many reasons to like animals．One of them might be：Their family ties are not as close as ours．When children grow up，they leave their parents and start their own life．Then the old will feel lonely．But pets can solve this problem．They can be good friends and never leave themalone．16．The passage mainly talks about ＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿．A．how to keep disease from pets B．pets in CanadaC．how to take good care of pets D．life of the old in Canada 17．They give their pets injections before keeping them at their houses because ＿＿＿．A．the pets are sick B．the pets are

every family has a birdcage in his house．D．Any bird can come to the bird feeders to eat．E Scientists are trying to make the deserts into good land again．They want to bring water to the deserts，so people can live and grow food．They are learning a lot about the deserts．But more and more of the earth is becoming desert all the time．Scientists may not be able to change the desert in time．Why is more and more land becoming desert？Scientists think that people make deserts．People are doing bad things to the earth．Some places on the earth don't get much rain．But they still don't become deserts．This is because some green plants are growing there．Small green plants and grass are very important to dry places．Plants don't let the sun make the earth even drier．Plants do not let the wind blow the dirt away．When a bit of rain falls，the plants hold the water．Without plants，the land can become desert more easily．21．Deserts ＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿．A．never have any plants or animals in themB．can all be turned into good land before longC．are becoming smaller and smallerD．get very little rain22．Small green plants are very important to dry places because ＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿．A．they don't let the sun make the earth

much rain will become desertsD．it is better to grow crops on dry land than to cut them3AWhy do people in all countries ride in buses to school，to work and to far places？Buses can go where trains and airplanes cannot．They do not cost as much to travel on．Even though they may not move as fast as airplanes and trains，they sometimes take people between two places faster．This is because they may travel a more direct way，or may leave more often，or at better times．Buses come in different sizes．A small bus can carry only eight or ten people．A large one might have seats for fifty to seventy people and have standing room for more．Thousands of yellow school buses carry millions of children to school every year．Most of these buses have seats placed quite close together to fit in as many children as possible．Some schools buy their own buses．Others pay to use buses that belong to bus companies．City and town buses carry people for short distances．The seats of these are close together，and there is standing room as well．Most city buses have two doors so that people can get on and off quickly．Long distance buses go from state to state or country to country．Theygive people the chance to travel across huge stretches of land．These buses have comfortable seats that can be moved to different positions．They have places to store suitcases．Many have washrooms．All these things

busesBEvery day millions of letters go from one country to another．Letters mailed in Italy are received in Japan．Letters mailed in Canada are received in Africa．On the letters are many different kinds of stamps，bought in different countries．The Universal Postal Union helps each letter get to the right place as quickly as possible．It sets up rules about the size and weight of letters，postcards，and small packages（包裹）．It has rules that all countries must follow about international postal rates（费用）．One hundred years ago，international mail did not move so smoothly．One country did not always accept another country's letters．Letters from some countries were too large to fit into the mailboxes of other countries．Letters travelled by many different routes（路线）．Some were lost along the way．Sometimes the person who sent the letter could pay only part of the postage．The person receiving the letter had to pay the rest．The United States was the first to suggest that all countries work togetherto settle the questions of international mail．In 1974，men from twenty-four countries met in Switzerland to form the Universal Postal Union．Today，more than 120 nations belong to this union．From its office in Switzerland，the union helps the mail to move safely and quickly around the world．6．From the story we can infer that ＿＿＿＿＿＿．A．mail is important to all countriesB．not enough letters are sent all over

is mainly about ＿＿＿＿＿＿．A．different kinds of stamps in different countriesB．an organization that makes rulesC．international mailD．the size and weight of lettersCThe earth is made up of several layers（地层）．The top layer of the earth is called the earth's crust．The crust is divided into sections which are called plates．When two plates push against each other，or when two plates rub against each other，an earthquake happens．An earthquake causes the ground above the plate to shake．The shaking is caused by the movement of the plates．Earthquakes are likely to happen at the boundaries（边界）of the earth's plates．Each of these plates is about 70 kilometres thick．11．The underlined word “crust” means “＿＿＿＿＿＿” ．A．地面B．地皮C．地质D．地壳12．The underlined word “sections” is closest in meaning to “＿＿＿＿” ．A．parts B．lines C．groups D．teams13．What are plates？A．The top layer of the earth．B．Places that cause the ground to shake．C．The sections of the crust．D．Places where earthquakes happen．14．What theory is

高一英语上学期阅读理解11篇（一）一As a student, you must be excited to know something about American school students. In fact, just like in China, in the United States, high school is usually divided into two periods, the first two or three years are called “junior high school” and the other is “senior high school”.In China, children enjoy free education of nine years, but in the United States, the students enjoy free education until they are 18 years old. As a result of the free education system (制度), American children have little difficulty in going to senior high school.American high school students can take part in a lot of activities outside of the classroom. The activities are organized by the school, such as joining a music group or a sports team. Certainly, just like us students in China, American students have to work hard in order to get good marks if they want to go to a good university. They take classes in all kinds of subjects all through the high school period. And those who come out with low marks at the end of a school year and whoshould repeat a grade are often allowed to go on to the next grade.In American high schools, there is fighting or hurting or other kinds of bad behaviors.So children who want to go to university are often sent to suburban (郊区的) high schools, where most students want to go to university and the atmosphere (氛围) is quite different.1. Activities outside of the classroom refer to _____.A. what the students do after class in schoolB. what the students learn in extra classesC. what a music group or a sports team doD. what the teachers do after class for the students2. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. The time of free education in China is longer than that in America.B. Those who get good marks can go to a good university.C. American students can take all kinds of subjects during the high school period.D. They can be allowed to join the next grade even if they fail the school-year exam.3. The writer of the passage tells us the truth that ____.A. the atmosphere in high schools is quite different from that in a universityB. none of the schools in cities are good for learningC. suburban high schools are good places for learningD. all the American students want to go to university二Americans can travel almost anywhere they choose. But to protect its people, the government lists a few dangerous places where Americans cannot go. These places are unfriendly countries or countries at war. There, the traveller might not be safe. These countries are listed in a small book called a passport. This passport is a government request(要求) for the safety of its travelling people. It is also a government' s pledge (保证) that the people will obey the rules of the host country. To receive a passport from the government, a traveller must prove(证明) that he is an American citizen. An American can not go abroad without a passport. Only some close countries such as Canada and Mexico do not ask for passports. Inside the passport is the traveller's picture. Children travelling with their parents are included(包含) in one parent's book. Thousands of people from the United States visit other countries every year. An American traveller might carry plane tickets, money, clothing and many other things, but the most important that he carries in another country is his passport.1. A passport is not needed when an American goes to .A. foreign countriesB. dangerous areasC. Canada or MexicoD. foreign countries2. From the passage we can see thatA. children can' t travel to foreign countriesB. Americans like travellingC. a traveller is not safe in most countriesD. Americans like to travel to close countries3. Which statement does the passage lead you to believe?A. People should take care of their passports.B. It is not important to have a passport to travel.C. Children are never included in a passport.D. When you are in another country, money is more important than a passport.4. Which of the following statements is true?A.When Americans are travelling in another country, they must obey the rules of the country.B. The American government sometimes allow its people to travel to dangerous places.C. A passport is needed wherever an American is travelling.D. A passport only helps the traveller to know where he will go.三It takes many years for you to grow up. There are two periods in your life when you grow rapidly. The first period begins right after you are born and lasts until you are about six months old. The second period starts when you reach the age of 13. First, girls grow faster than boys, then boys catch up and grow faster and stronger.Your head stops growing earlier than the rest of you. By the time you are ten, your head is nearly full size. The bones of your arms and legs are short when you are a baby. When you reach the age of nine, your bones starts to grow rapidly, and will keep growing until you reach your full height (高度).Besides growing taller, your body changes in other ways. When a boy is about 13 years old, his voice begins to get deeper and he may begin to grow a beard (胡子). At about the age of 13, a girl’s body begins to function (运行) like a woman’s. Some important changes are taking place, changes that makes it possible for boys and girls, when they are older, to become fathers and mothers.1.

I do not want to bring my friends home because she does not act like any of the other mothers. She says I am a loser because I sit at home and study. I wish I could live in another family that was normal, but it will be 5 years before I am 18. What am I supposed to do until then?Prisoner of a Crazy HouseDear 7th Grader,I am glad that you love your mother because the rest of your feelings about her may change as you get older and mature.While it is true that your mother’s smoking, partying and cursing bring you shame, the fact that you want to stay separate from her doings is notable and very smart. It shows that you are a winner, not a loser. I am guessing, therefore, that you do not bring shame to yourself, and that is a good thing. So, keep it that way and keep away from your mother’s habits.At the same time, try to get the best grades and join clubs and school activities. Offer social service on weekends and visit your friends at their homes.Fortunately, you are not alone. Many teens live in homes with immature, misguided, selfish parents. But they develop good friendships with nice kids, do well in school, and often find a teacher or guidance advisor who makes all the difference!Do it, Miss Winning 13 years old, and keep looking forward to your own future. Maybe by then your mother may even see the light and realize how good you really are.Michelle1. Michelle doesn’t address her letter receiver as “Prisoner of a Crazy House” possibly because she _____.

According to the passage, Michelle advises the girl to _____.A. try talking to her mother for her futureB. st ick to her attitude towards her mother’s some habitsC. understand her mother’s habits and get used to themD. try to keep away from her mother3. What does Michelle mainly express by writing the last four paragraphs?A. Don’t worry too much about the problem.B. Many parents act terribly.C. Parents’ manners make little difference.D. The girl is not speaking for herself.4 What does Miss Winning 13 years old refer to in the last paragraph but one?A. the girl who turns to Michelle for helpB. MichelleC. the girl’s motherD. a famous person whom we all admire六Young people in most countries like to dance. Different peoples have different kinds of dances.Pretend (假装)that you are in Africa. You are visiting the Kikuyu tribe.Hear the drums beat! Listen to the flutes! Almost 2,000 Kikuyus are meeting for the most important dance of the year.First, the Kikuyus choose a large, flat place for their dance. For hundreds of years, they have danced on an autumn night when the moon is full. The moon and the flame from small fires light the dancers.Older people watch from the side while young men and women gather at the dancing place. The girls wear leather skirts and tops. The men wear fancy headdresses and carry spears. The dancers' skin and clothes are colored by light red chalk. The chalk and the firelight make the dancers look like statues.The dancers act out stories of good and bad deeds. The dances tell stories of lion hunts and other adventures.

That was a typical (典型的) British Sunday in the 1960s. But things now could not be more different.Some British sociologists recently studied the typical British Sunday. They found that people get up later and do less housework than they did 40 years ago. They are far more likely to be out shopping or enjoying themselves than cooking Sunday lunch.Sunday mornings were busy 40 years ago. Most women caught up on their weekly housework and cooked a nice lunch. They seldom allowed themselves any “leisure” until afternoon, after the dishes were cleaned. Then there would be another rush to the table between 5:00 pm and 6:00 pm for tea.But now, Britons can have brunch (早午餐) at the restaurant. Fewer people bother to cook themselves.“You only have two free days a week. You don’t want to have to waste one because there is nothing to do but watch boring TV,” said Elizabeth Biggs, 25, a producer in London.“On Saturday you are recovering from the week,” Biggs added. “Sundays are the last chance for the weekend — you want to get as much as you can out of the day before you have to go back to work.”In the past, British women usually did their shopping during the week, while the husband was at work. “Now men seem to do that as much as women,” said Jonathan Gershuny, a professor who took part in the study.Men also do more housework now on Sundays. Back in the 1960s, men were far more likely to spend Sundays out of the house — at the pub or playing football — before lunch.1. Many Britons have brunch at the restaurant because _______.A.

When you are telling others in the class what you have found out about these topics, remember that they must be able to hear what you are saying. You are not taking part in a family conversation or having a chat with friends—you are in a slightly unnatural situation where a large group of people will remainsilent, waiting to hear what you have to say. You must speak so that they can hear you—loudly enough and clearly enough but without trying to shout or appearing to force yourself.Remember, too, that it is the same if you are called to an interview whether it is with a professor of your school or a government official who might meet you.

English speakers are always creating new words and we are often able to know where most words come from.Sometimes, however, no one may really know where a word comes from. Did you ever think about why hamburgers are called hamburgers, especially when they are not made with ham?About a hundred years ago, some men went to America from Europe. They came from a big city in Germany called Hamburg. They didn’t speak good English, but they ate good food. When some Americans saw them eating round piece of beef, they asked the Germans what it was. The Germans d idn’t understand the question and answered, “We come from Hamburg.” One of these Americans owned a restaurant, and had an idea. He cooked some round piece of bread and started selling them. Such bread came to be called “hamburgers”. Today, “hamburgers” are sold in many countries around the world.Whether this story is true or not, it certainly is interesting. Knowing why any word has a certain meaning is interesting, too.
