5.C

【分析】本文是说明文。良好的心态有助于我们的取得成功，本文介绍了判断自己是否有良好的心态的方

法和如何改变不良心态。

1.根据下文“Belowaresomepointers."（下面是一些参考指标。）并结合下文各段小标题句意可知，各段歹U

举的都是不良的心态的表征。说明此处要提到改变不良心态。各段小标题正是对G项“Howdoyouknowif

youneedtochangeyourmindset?”（你怎么知道你是否需要改变你的心态?）的回答。故选G项。

2.下文“Doyoufindyourselfcomplainingaboutyoursituation,orwhatotherpeoplehavesaidordone?"（你有

没有发现自己在抱怨自己的处境，抱怨别人说了什么或者做了什么？）在要求自己要留意自己的语言。B项

“Watchwhatyousaytoyourselfandothers.（注意你对自己和别人说的话。）正好概括这一话题。故选B

项。

3.根据下文中Rather（adv.相反；而是）可知前后句有对比关系。“Ratherbepleasedthatyouhavethe

opportunitytolearnnewlessons."（相反，应该为你有机会得到新的教训而感到高兴。）与A项Don't

complainorworryaboutpain有对比关系。故选A项。

4.下文“Theyonlymakeyoubitter.”中出现了指示代词They,设空处需要给出其指代对象，另外句中only说

明前后句句意有一定程度的对比关系。F项“Thesenegativethoughtswillnotchangeotherpeople."（这些消

极的想法不会改变其他人。）中Thesenegativethoughts对应下文they,且句意中的“不会”与下文的“只会”

有对比关系。故选F项。

5.根据上文“Aneffectivemindsetisonethatmakesthebestuseofyourtime,energyandskillstomakepositive

change."（一个高效的心态是能充分利用你的时间、精力和技能来做出积极的改变的心态。）可知末段是对

全文的小结，C项“Yourmindsetwilldetermineyourfuturepath."（你的心态将决定你未来的道路。）与其是

承接关系，且与首段“Toachievesomething…”相照应。故选C项。

【分析】这是一篇说明文。随着欧洲学校停课和大型活动取消，孩子可能会对COVID-19产生疑问和担

忧，这说起来可能很难，但孩子们需要安全感。文章主要就如何向孩子谈论COVID-19提出了一些建议。

1.根据上文“WithschoolsclosingandbigeventscancelledinEurope,yourchildprobablyhasquestionsand

concernsaboutCOVID-19.Thatcanbetoughtotalkabout,butkidsneedtofeelsafe.（随着欧洲学校停课和大型

活动取消，您的孩子可能会对COVID-19产生疑问和担忧。这说起来可能很难，但孩子们需要安全感广以

及后文“Here'resometipsfromafamilymedicinephysicianonhowtotalktochildrenaboutCOVID-19.（以下是

一位家庭内科医生提供的一些建议，教你如何与孩子谈论C0VID-19）”可知，上文提到了孩子在疫情期间

需要安全感，后文则提供了一些给成年人和孩子谈论COVID-19的建议，可推测本句是在说明成年人在孩

子需要安全感这件事情上的作用，故E选项“值得信任的成年人的最大作用是帮助他们做到这一点”符合语

境，故选Eo

2.根据后文“Ifyou'reshowingpanicoranxiety,sowillthey.Instead,confirmtheirconcernstoshowthatyou

understandwhytheymightbenervous-andthatalittlenervousnessisOK.Itsimportantforthemtoknowthat

there'snoneedtopanic.Thentalkcalmlyaboutwhat'shappening,andtellthempeopleareworkingveryhardto

makethingsbetter.（如果你表现出恐慌或焦虑，他们也会。相反，你应该证实他们的担心，并表明你理解他

们为什么会紧张———点点的紧张没有关系。让他们知道没有必要恐慌是很重要的。然后平静地谈论正在

发生的事情，告诉他们人们正在非常努力地让事情变得更好户可知，后文提到大人恐慌或焦虑，孩子也会

有一样的情绪，说明孩子们也是可以了解大人的感受的。后文中they指代A选项中Kids。故A选项“孩子

们可以了解你的感受”符合语境，故选A。

3.根据后文“Oneofthebestwaystocalmchildrenistoletthembelievetheycanprotectnotjustthemselves-but

otherpeopleaswell.Tellthemthatwhentheyfollowtherulesforstayinghealthy,thathelpsotherpeoplestaysafe

sincethechildwon'tbespreadingthedisease.Thisistheirjob-todowhattheyalreadyknowtheyshouldbedoing

tokeepthemselvesandothershealthy.（安抚孩子最好的方法之一就是让他们相信他们不仅能保护自己，还能

保护其他人。告诉他们，当他们遵守保持健康的规则时，这有助于其他人保持安全，因为孩子不会传播疾

病。这是他们的工作——做他们已经知道应该做的事情，以保持自己和他人的健康）”可知，本段的中心思

想是让孩子相信他们不仅能保护自己，还能保护其他人，也就是让孩子主动参与到防控疫情这件事情中

来，故B选项“让他们觉得自己参与其中”符合语境，故选B。

4.根据上文“Meetchildrenwheretheyare.Veryyoungchildrenmightnotbeaskinganyquestions,andinthat

casethere'snoreasontodiscussthetopic.（设身处地为孩子考虑。很小的孩子可能不会问任何问题，在这种情

况下，就没有理由讨论这个话题）“以及后文"Behonestanddon'tscarethemorbecomealarmist.（要诚实，不要

吓唬他们，也不要危言耸听）”可知，上文提到了孩子不问问题就不讨论这个话题的情景，可推测本句应承

接上文说明应对那些想要得知答案的孩子的办法，故F选项“但是不要羞于谈论那些想要答案的孩子们发

生了什么"符合语境，故选F。

5.根据上文“Limitingtoomuchexposuretotelevisionreportsandsocialmedia-especiallythenewsthat

overstatesthecase-canhelp,sincechildrenusuallyhaveextremelyactiveimagination.（限制孩子们过多地接触电

视报道和社交媒体——尤其是夸大事实的新闻——是有帮助的，因为孩子们通常有着极其活跃的想象力）”

可知，上文提到孩子们想象力活跃，本句为本段最后一句，应承接上文继续说明孩子们想象力活跃的特

质。故G选项“他们甚至可以奔向类似世界毁灭的东西”符合语境，故选G。

C

4.E

5.B

【分析】

这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了一些简单的方法帮你走出舒适区，取得成就。

1.上文“Weknowthisandyetwefinditdifficulttotakethestep.（我们知道这一点，但我们发现很难迈出这一

步）''以及下文“Itmeansdoingwhateveritisthatmakesyouuncomfortableordoingthingsthatyouresistoreven

fear.（它意味着做让你不舒服的事情，或者做一些你抗拒甚至害怕的事情户表明走出舒适区不是一件容易的

事，所以选项A“毫无疑问，这并不容易，符合句意上的衔接，故选A。

2.根据上题分析可知，走出舒适区不容易。空前“Butaslongasyoudothat,youwillstepoutofyourcomfort

zoneandmakeadifference.（但只要你这样做，你就会走出你的舒适区，有所作为）''表明虽然不容易，但是

走出舒适区，会取得不一般的成就，说明此空表达的是作者会让走出舒适区尽可能容易点，轻松点，这

样才有空后“Herearesomeeasywaysforthispurpose.（这里有一些简单的方法）"选项F“同时，我们希望这个

过程尽可能的轻松”符合句意和逻辑上的衔接，故选F。

3.上段中“Themotivationwegetfromourvisionhastakenusthisfar,butwetendtobecomecomfortableinstead

"pushingforgreatness.（我们从愿景中获得的动力使我们走了这么远，但我们倾向于变得舒适，而不再是

追求伟大）”说明我们从愿景中获得的动力已经不再让我们追求更伟大的成就，那么这一段应该会讲述我们

应该获得更强大的动力促使我们前进，所以选项C“所以我们需要我们的愿景重新强大起来”，符合与上段

内容衔接，也弓I出下文“Dreamoncemore,revisityourgrandvision,andrememberthepersonyouwanttobeand

thethingsyouwanttoachieve.（再做一次梦，重新审视你的宏伟愿景，记住你想成为的人和你想实现的事

情）、故选C。

4.根据上文“Toovercomethisfearandmanagetherisks,figureoutwhattheworstresultscouldbe.（为了克服这

种恐惧并应对风险，找出最坏的结果可能是什么广，可知为了应对风险，可以找出最坏的结果，选项E“一

旦你知道了这一点，想办法把它们最小化”承接了上文，找出最坏的结果，把他们最小化，故选E。

5.上文“Itismorevaluabletobeinmotion,pushingforward,makingmistakesandthencorrectingthantostandin

thesidelinesmotionless.Thisiswhathighachieversdo.Theygetstartedandmakecorrectionsastheygo.（动起

来、往前走、犯错误再改正，比站在一旁一动不动更有价值。高成就者就是这样做的。他们开始行动，并

在行动中进行修正）''可知那些取得伟大成就的人就是行动起来，不断去尝试，不断改正错误的人，选项

B“他们不能接受的就是不尝试。衔接了上文内容，故选B。

【答案】

1.G

2.E

3.B

4.F

5.C

【分析】这是一篇说明文。本文详细阐述了大象的葬礼仪式，并借此说明动物是聪明、敏感和富有创造力

的。

1.下文“Ofallanimalfuneralceremonies,thereisnoneaswell-documentedorwell-knownastheelephant's.”说

明在所有的动物葬礼仪式中，只有大象的葬礼有充分的文献记载并广为人知，因此，G项“Elephantshave

suchclosesocialgroupsthattheybecomeextremelyupsetwhenoneoftheirowndies（大象有着如此亲密的社会

群体，当它们自己的一头大象死去时，它们会变得非常不安）”中的“becomeextremelyupset”是关键词，与上

文构成因果关系，说明大象有亲密的社会群体并对同伴的死去非常不安，这种特点使得大象的葬礼广为人

知并有文献记载。故选G项。

2.上文“Theceremonyincludestouchingbonesgentlywiththeirtrunkswhileremainingveryquiet,coveringthe

bodywithleavesandgrass（仪式包括用象鼻轻轻触摸骨头，同时保持安静，用树叶和草覆盖身体广说明了大

象葬礼仪式细节，因止匕，E项"Iftheelephantbelongedtotheirown,they'dstaywiththebodyfbrdaysor

weeks（如果大象是属于它们自己的,它们会在尸体旁边呆上几天或几周）”中的“staywiththebodyfordaysor

weeks”是关键词，与上文“remainingveryquiet”相呼应，构成顺承关系，说明大象葬礼有哪些活动。故选E

项。

3.根据上文“Theelephantherd（群）wereallroaringloudly.Heryoungcalfwasobservedtobeweepingandmade

soundsthatsoundedlikeascream,butthentheentireherdfellincrediblysilent.Theythenbegantothrowleaves

anddirtoverthebodyandbrokeofftreebranchestocoverher（象群都在大声吼叫，可以观察到她的小象崽在哭

泣，发出的声音听起来像一声尖叫，但随后整个象群陷入难以置信的沉默。然后，他们开始把树叶和泥土

扔到她的身上，并折断树枝盖住她）“以及下文"Theysometimeshadtoleavetogetwaterorfood,butthey

wouldalwaysreturn（他们有时不得不离开去拿水或食物，但他们总会回来）”可知，说明了在雌性大象首领的

葬礼上，大象群为她所举行的一系列悼念活动，因此，B项“Theyspentthenexttwodaysquietlystanding

overthebody（接下来的两天，他们静静地站在尸体旁边）"中的"quietlystandingoverthebody''是关键词，与

上文“buttheywouldalwaysreturn”相呼应，说明到活动最后，它们会持续几天静静陪伴在尸体旁边，除了

拿水或者食物，都不离开。故选B项。

4.根据下文“AnewsreportinKenyatoldofanelephantthatstamped（踩踏）ahumanmotherandherchildand

thenstoppedtoburythembeforedisappearinginthebush（肯尼亚的一则新闻报道说，一头大象在人类母亲和

她的孩子身上踩踏，然后停下来埋葬他们，然后消失在灌木丛中）“可知，大象在人类母亲和她的孩子身上

踩踏，然后停下来埋葬他们。因此，F项“Elephantsaresuchkindanimalsthatthey'llevensorrowforandbury

Iheirnumberonekillers-us（大象是如此善良的动物，他们甚至会为我们悲伤，埋葬他们的头号杀手）”中“bury

theirnumberonekillers-us”是关键词，与上文“burythem”相呼应，与上文构成顺承关系。故选F项。

5.根据上文“Weallhavedifferentwaysofgivingrespectto,andlettinggoof,ourdead,butseeinghowanimals

sorrowfortheirsshowsushowcapabletheyareoflovingothers（我们每个人都有不同的方式来尊重和舍弃我们

的死者，但是看到动物为他们的死亡而悲伤，我们就知道他们多么有能力去爱）”可知，C项“Hopefully,this

changesourviewpointonhowwetreatfellowanimals（希望这能改变我们对待同类动物的观点）”中的"loving

others”是关键词，说明有些动物是非常有爱的，我们要改变对待同类动物的观点。故选C项。
