高考英语(精讲精练精析)专题 阅读表达阅读简答试题(含解析)

定额市鞍钢阳光实验学校专题29 阅读表达、阅读简答（天津）
,天津高考英语卷也采用了阅读表达这一题型。

这种题型以阅读理解为基础,要求考生在读懂文章的基础上,用规定的词数简要地回答有关问题;考查考生的英语表达能力和概括能力,比传统的阅读理解题型更具综合性和主观性,更能体现对考生的综合语言运用能力的考查。

所选用的阅读材料题材、文体与传统的阅读理解短文没有太大的区别,多以故事和说明文为主,长度一般为
300词左右,结构清晰,通俗易懂。

在问题设置上，阅读表达题一般设有五个小题(每小题2分),阅读简答题则一般设有三个小题(每小题2分)。

在形式上,阅读表达题相对丰富些,有填空和问题简答等,而阅读简答题则主要以问题简答为主。

考查的方向基本上可分为四大类:一是词汇语义类,要求考生从文中找到一个与所给生词或短语意义最接近的替换词,考查学生联系上下文理解词义的能力;二是细节查找类,针对文章某细节内容提问,要求考生用规定的词数回答问题;三是主旨大意类,针对文章主旨提问,考查考生对文章中心思想或作者态度、观点等的把握;四是考生个人观点类,问考生读完文章后对文中故事或人物的看法。

总之,这种题型将答题主观性与客观性相结合,突出思维的开放性,给考生提供广阔的思维空间,能全面、客观地考查考生“读、写、思”等方面的能力。

阅读短文，按照题目要求用英语回答问题。

I'm a 34­year­old man, married, live in a nice house, and have a successful career as an educational consultant. But my life was not always so great. I had a learning disability from an early age. I went to a special school where I got plenty of extra help. Still, I suffered the rest of my school days in public schools.
My life improved remarkably when I discovered art. The art world gave me a chance to express myself without words. I went to a workshop and gradually got good at making things with clay(黏土). Here I learned my first important lesson: disabled as I was in language, I could still be smart and well express myself with clay. And my confidence came along.
I got my next lesson from rock climbing. It was a fun thing but I was scared from the start. I soon noticed it wasn't a talent thing; it was practice. So I did it more. After about five years of climbing, I found myself in Yosemite Valley on a big wall. I learned that if you fall in love with something and do it all the time, you will get better at it.
Later I decided to apply my previous experience to learning how to read and write. Every day I practised reading and writing, which I used to avoid as much as possible. After two hard years, I__was__literate．Having gone through the long process with art, rock climbing, and reading and writing, now I've got to a point in my life where I know I am smart enough to dive into an area that is totally unknown, hard, but interesting.

Six days a week, up and down the red hills of north­east Georgia, my grandfather brought the mail to the folks there. At age 68, he retired from the post office, but he never stopped serving the community.
On his 80th birthday, I sent him a letter, noting the things we all should be thankful for—good health, good friends and good outcomes. By most measurements he was a happy man. Then I suggested it was time for him to slow down. At long last, in a comfortable home, with a generous pension, he should learn to take things easy.
“Thank you for your nice words，” he wrote in his letter back, “and I know what you meant, but slowing down scares me. Life isn't having it made; it's getting it made.”
“The finest and happiest years of our lives were not when all the debts were paid, and all difficult experiences had passed, and we
had settled into a comfortable home. No. I go back years ago, when we lived in a three­room house, when we got up before daylight and worked till after dark to make ends meet. I rarely had more than four hours of sleep. But what I still can't figure out is why I never got tired, never felt better in my life. I guess the answer is, we were fighting for survival, protecting and providing for those we loved. What matters are not the great moments, but the partial victories, the waiting, and even the defeats. It's the journey, not the arrival, that counts.”
The letter ended with a personal request: “Boy, on my next birthday, just tell me to wake up and get going, because I will have one less year to do things—and there are ten million things waiting to be d one.”
Chris tina Rossetti, an English poet, once said: “Does the road wind uphill all the way? Yes, to the very end.” Today, at 96,
my_grandfather_is_still_on_that_long_road,_climbing.
56. What was the author's grandfather before he retired? (no more than 5 words)
57. What did the author advise his grandfather to do in his letter? (no more than 10 words)
58. What is the grandfather's view on life according to his letter back? (no more than 10 words)
59. How do you understand the underlined sentence in the last paragraph? (no more than 10 words)
60. Do you agree with the grandfather's view on life? Give reasons in your own words. (no more than 20 words)
细节理解题。

根据第二段的“Then I suggested it was time for him to slow down.”可知答案。

58. The process is more important than the result.
Or: A man should not slow down however old he is.
Or: Life isn't having it made; it's getting it made./It's the journey, not the arrival, that counts.
细节理解题。

根据第三段的“Life isn't having it made；it's getting it made.”和第四段的“It's the journey, not the arrival, that counts.”可知祖父认为过程比结果重要。

Or: The grandfather is still living an active life.
Or: The grandfather is still involved in whatever he can do.

how old he is.

[2014·天津卷] 阅读短文，按照题目要求用英语回答问题。

Last December, Doris Low turned 90. Once a week she still drives to the Canadian National Institute for the Blind (CNIB) in Toronto, where she helps transform literature into braille(盲文) to bring the power of story and knowledge to the hearts and minds of blind readers. She has been volunteering her time and talents to such enterprises for more than 40 years.
After working in the business world for a while, Low got fed up. So she turned to teaching at a technical school and later moved into the library.
Low's mother liked reading. As her eyes began to fail, Low read to her. Then“hearing an advertisement encouraging people to lea rn braille, I decided to give it a try.” In 1973, she was certified as a braille transcriber(转译者) and began transcribing books as a volunteer for the CNIB library.
The job was strenuous—she could get to the end of a page, make a mistake on the last line, and have to do the whole thing again. For a number of years, Low also worked in the CNIB sound studio reading books onto tape. Three years ago, she took up proofreading(校对) at the CNIB's word factory.
In April, during Volunteer Week, the CNIB recognized Low for her great contributions. Thanks to volunteers like Low, the CNIB library has got more than 80，000 accessible materials for people unable to read traditional print. “ I can't imagine how many readers of all ages have benefited from Doris' contribution as a skilled volunteer through her rich voice and her high degree of accuracy in the hundreds of books she has brailled and proofread over the years—and she is still doing so，” said a CNIB official.
“For me，” said Low, “the CNIB is more than just a place to volunteer. Three things matter most in my life: a little play, a little work, a little love. I've found them all here.”
56. What does Low still do at the age of 90 at the CNIB? (no more than 10 words)
57. Why did Low learn braille? (no more than 15 words)
58. What does the under lined word “strenuous” most probably
mean？(1 word)
59. What are Low's contributions to the CNIB? (no more than 15 words)
60. What do you think of Low? Give your reasons. (no more than 20 words)
【要点综述】本文是一篇记叙文。

主要介绍了Doris Low从年轻时就成为一名志愿者为那些听力有问题的人读书，将书中的内容转在磁带上，还作为转译者将普通的书译成布拉耶文(即盲文)。

现年她已经90岁了，依旧在做志愿工作。

56. She helps transform literature into braille (for blind readers/the blind). 根据第一段中的“…where she helps transform literature into braille…”可知，Doris Low在90岁时依旧在帮忙把文学作品翻译成盲文。

57. (Because) her mother's eyes began to fail and she heard an/the advertisement. 根据第三段中的“As her eyes began to fail, Low read to her…，‘hearing an advertisement encouraging people to learn braille, I decided to give it a try.’”可知Low学盲文是因为她母亲的视力下降，而且正好听到了一则鼓励人们学盲文的广告。

58. Difficult/Hard/Tiring/Tough. 根据画线单词后的内容“…she could get to the end of a page, make a mistake on the last line, and have to do the whole thing again.”可知将书译成盲文是非常难的，故用difficult/hard/tiring/though等词汇。

59. She has brailled and proofread hundreds of books, and read books onto tape.根据倒数第二段中的“…the CNIB recognized Low for her great contributions.”可知contributions后面的内容都是Low作出的贡献。

重点的贡献就是“…through her rich voice and her high degree of accuracy in the hundreds of books she has brailled and proofread…”将句子进行整合就构成本题的答案。

My name is Clara. I still remember that chilly December day, sitting in science class. I’d finished a worksheet early and picked up a Time for Kids magazine. A piece of news caught my eye. NASA was holding an essay contest to name its Mars rover (火星探测器). Before I even knew anything else about it, a single word flooded my 11-year-old mind: Curiosity.
I couldn’t wait for the bell to ring so I could get started on my essay. That afternoon, I raced home, sat down at the computer, and typed until my fingers ached. “Curiosity is an everlasting flame that burns in everyone’s mind…”
Five months later, my mom received a phone call, and immediately, a wide smile spread across her face.
On August 5, 2012, at 10:31 p.m., the rover named Curiosity touched down safely on the surface of Mars, and I was honored to have a front-row seat in NASA.
Curiosity is such an important part of who I am. I have always been fascinated by the stars, the planets, the sky and the universe. I remember as a little girl, my grandmother and I would sit together in the backyard for hours. She’d tell me stories and point out the stars. Grandma lived in China, thousands of miles away from my home in Kansas, but the stars kept us together even when we were apart. They were always there, yet there was so much I didn’t know about them. That’s what I love so much about space.
People often ask me why we go to faraway places like Mars. My answer is simple because we’re curious. We human beings do not just hole up in one place. We are constantly wondering and trying to find out what’s over the hill and beyond the horizon.
【文章大意】这篇文章介绍了作者为什么给火星探测器命名为Curiosity：因为好奇才会进步、发展。

56. How did Clara get the news about the essay contest? (no more than 10 words)
[答案]By reading a Time for Kids magazine. Or: From a Time for Kids magazine

57. Why did Clara have a front-row seat in NASA? (no more than 10 words) [答案]She won the essay contest held by NASA. Or: She named the Mars rover “Curiosity”. Or: “Curiosity” was chosen as the name of the Mars rover.
[解析]题干中的关键信息“a front-row seat in NASA”告诉我们答案可能在第四段，第四段中有一个“the rover named Curiosity”再结合第二段中的“Curiosity is an…”的句子，我们就能得出正确答案了。

[考点定位]考查细节理解能力。

一般根据题干中的关键信息去定位答案，然后根据文章的意思就能很快的找到答案。

58. What does Clara remember about the time spent with Grandma? (no more than 15 words)
[答案]She sat together with Grandma listening to her stories about stars. Or: Her grandma told her stories about stars. Or: They sat together talking about stars.
[解析]关键信息“the time spent with Grandma”说明答案应该出现在倒数
第2段：I remember as a little girl, my grandmother and I would sit together in the backyard for hours. She’d tell me stories and point out the stars. 学生在组织语言的时候要把人物和事件都概括进来。

学生在组织语言时必须把人物和事件概括好。

59. What does the und erlined phrase “hole up” mean? (1 word)
[答案]Stay/Remain/Live/Hide
[考点定位] 考查推测生词的能力。

一定要把握好语境，有时要考虑搭配。

60. In your opinion, why is curiosity important? (no more than 20 words) [答案]Curiosity is important because it leads to discovery or inventions. Or: With curiosity, we keep asking questions and exploring the world unknown. Or: Curiosity drives us through our lives so that we never stop wondering about the things beyond our knowledge.
[解析] 这是一个开放性的问题，理解了原文之后，就比较容易回答了。

但是，回答时一定不要偏离了文章的中心。

文章多次提到curiosity或curious，我们要对除了专有名词之外的地方进行概括提炼，揣摩作者的意思。

[考点定位] 考查学生概括能力和组织语言能力。

对出现关键词的对方要进行归纳总结，在揣摩了作者的意图之后，组织语言。

Born in 1949, Diana Nyad took an early interest in swimming as a sport and was a Florida State High School swimming champion. Like many young athletes, she had Olympic dreams, but a serious illness kept her from competing in the Games. The disappointment didn't stop her from going forward. Instead, she became interested in marathon swimming. A brilliant athlet e, she was well­conditioned for spending long periods of time in the water. As a long­distance swimmer, she would compete against herself and the obstacles presented by distance, danger, cold, and exhaustion.
For ten years Nyad devoted herself to becoming one of the world's best long­distance swimmers. In 1970, she swam a ten­mile marathon in Lake Ontario, setting the women's record for the course. In 1972 she set another record by swimming 102.5 miles from an island in the Bahamas to the coast of Florida. Then she broke a third record when swimming around Manhattan Island in 1975.
Nyad attempted to swim the distance between Florida and Cuba in 1978. Though the span of water is less than 100 miles wide, it is rough and dangerous. After battling the water for two days, she had to give up for the sake of her own health and safety. Even so, she impressed the
world with her courage and strong desire to succeed. For Nyad her strength of purpose was just as important as reaching Cuba. That is how she defined success. It did not matter that her swim came up short; she believed she had touched the other shore.
When Nyad ended her career as a swimmer, she continued to try new things—travelling the world as a reporter, writing books and giving public speeches about her life. Diana Nyad works to inspire others, just as she did when she swam the waters of the world.

that once we set a goal, we should try hard to achieve it./We should never give up in the face of difficulty/failure./We should never stop trying new things and we may achieve success in different fields.【两年模拟】2015、2016名校模拟题及其答案解析

When I was growing up, I was embarrassed to be seen with my father. He was severely lame and very short, and when we would walk together, his hand on my arm for balance, people would stare. I would feel ashamed at the unwanted attention. If he ever noticed or was bothered, he never let on, nor did he say anything about it.
It was difficult to coordinate(协调) our steps—his pausing, my impatience—and because of that, we didn’t say much as we went along. But as we started out, he always said, “You set the pac e, I will try to adjust to you.”
Our usual walk was to or from the subway, which was how he got to work. He went to work sick, and despite bad weather. He almost never missed a day, and would make it to the office even if others could not.
A matter of pride.
When snow or ice was on the ground, it was impossible for him to walk, even with help. At such times my sisters or I would pull him through the streets of Brooklyn, NY, on a child’s sleigh to the subway entrance. Once there, he would grasp the handrail until he reached the lower steps that the warmer tunnel air kept ice-free. In Manhattan the subway station was the basement of his office building, and he would not have to go outside until we met him in Brooklyn on his way home.
When I think of it now, I wondered at how much courage it must have taken for a grown man to subject himself to such indignity and stress. And at how he did it—without bitterness or complaint.
He never talked about himself as an object of pity, nor did he show any envy of the more fortunate or able. What he looked for in others was a “good heart”, and if he found one, the owner was good enough for him.
Now that I am older, I believe that is a proper standard by which to judge people, even though I still don’t know precisely what a “good heart” is. But I know the times I don’t have one myself.
My father has been gone many years now, but I think of him often.
I wonder if he sensed my unwillingness to be seen with him during our walks. If he did, I am sorry I never told him how sorry I was, how unworthy I was, how I regretted it. I think of him when I complain about incident, when I am envious of another’s good fortune, when I don’t have a “good heart”.
At such times I put my hand on his arm to regain my balance, and say, “You set the pace, I will try to adjust to you.”
56. What wouldn’t the author like others to see?(No more than 10 words)
_______________________________________________________________ __________
57. What’s the meaning of the underlined phrase “let on” in the firs t
paragraph? (No more than 5 words)
_______________________________________________________________ _________
58. According to the third paragraph, what conclusion can you get about
the father’s attitude toward his work? (No more than 8 words) _______________________________________________________________ __________
59. Find an example in the passage that shows the father was a man with
a “good heart”. (No more than10 words)
_______________________________________________________________ __________
60. What does the author learn from his father? (No more than 15 words)
_______________________________________________________________ __________
【答案】56.His father was crippled and couldn’t keep balance
57.Showed his feelings/Toldothers his feelings
58.He loved his work/ He took his work seriously./He was strict in his work
59.He subjected himself to indignity and stress./He never talked about himself as an object of pity/He didn’t show any envy of the more fortunate or able.
60.To be a man with a good heart
【解析】
试题分析：本文主要讲述了作者对自己生有残疾却从不怨天尤人保持一颗“善良的心”的父亲的怀念和对自己年轻时羞于与父亲在一起的悔恨
56.His father was crippled and couldn’t keep balance考查细节理解题。

根据第一段提到When I was growing up, I was embarrassed to be seen with my father. He was severely lame and very short, and when we would walk together, his hand on my arm for balance, people would stare.当我在长大时，我提到父亲很尴尬，他是瘸的，很矮，当我们一起走路时，他的手挎着我的胳膊来保持平衡，人们会瞪着眼睛看，故His father was crippled and couldn’t keep balance
57.Showed his feelings/Toldothers his feelings 考查细节理解题。

根据第一段提到If he ever noticed or was bothered, he never let on, nor did he say anything about it如果他注意到或被打扰，他不能表达自己的感觉，也不会说什么。

58.He loved his work/ He took his work seriously./He was strict in his work 考查细节理解题。

根据第三段提到He went to work sick, and despite bad weather. He almost never missed a day他带病上班，尽管有恶劣的天气，不会错过一天，故很热爱这份工作。

With the teacher’s help, I eventually got over my depression．From then on, I no longer bowed my head and began smiling to my classmates．I would put up my hand confidently in class and play with my new friends in my spare time．Meanwhile, I was gradually embraced by my classmates．Now faced with fierce competition, we all study hard because we know that every second counts．Moreover, there is an atmosphere of mutual trust and respect between us．I love my class; I love my classmates!

A young lady was standing on the corner with a map in her hand. She looked puzzled. Several people passed by, looked at her but did not stop.
I wondered why. Maybe it was because of the way she was dressed. She wore a dirty dress and looked pale.
As I crossed the street and came closer to her I asked if she wanted help. She thanked me and smiled in relief. As it turned out she was looking for the hospital. I felt wonderful just reaching out, and taking that extra moment to help.
Many times in these situations I end up walking a person to where。
