(2017·衡阳第八中学、永州市第四中学联考)A“My work is done.”Those words were some of the last penned by George Eastman.He included them in his suicide note.They mark an ignoble end to a noble life,the leave taking of a truly great man.The same words could now be said for the company he left behind.Actually,the Eastman Kodak Company is through.It has been mismanaged financially,technologically and competitively.For 20 years,its leaders have foolishly spent down the patrimony of a century's prosperity.One of America's bedrock brands is about to disappear,the Kodak moment has passed.But George Eastman is not how he died,and the Eastman Kodak Company is not how it is being killed.Though the ends be needless and premature,they must not be allowed to overshadow the greatness that came before.Few companies have done so much good for so many people,or defined and lifted so profoundly the spirit of a nation and perhaps the world.It is impossible to understand the 20th Century without recognizing the role of the Eastman Kodak Company.Kodak served mankind through entertainment,science,national defense and the stockpiling of family memories.Kodak took us to the top of Mount Suribachi and to the Sea of Tranquility.It introduced us to the merry old Land of Oz and to stars from Charlie Chaplin to John Wayne,and Elizabeth Taylor to Tom Hanks.It showed us the shot that killed President Kennedy,and his brother bleeding out on a kitchen floor,and a fallen Martin Luther King Jr.on the hard balcony of a Memphis motel.When that sailor kissed the nurse,and when the spy planes saw missiles in Cuba,Kodak was the eyes of a nation.From the deck of the Missouri to the grandeur of Monument Valley,Kodak took us there.Virtually every significant image of the 20th Century is a gift to posterity(繁荣) from the Eastman Kodak Company.In an era of easy digital photography,when we can take a picture of anything at any time,we cannot imagine what life was like before George Eastman brought photography to people.Yes,there were photograph ers,and for relatively large sums of money they would take stilted(不自然的) pictures in studios and formalsettings.But most people couldn't afford photographs,and so all they had to remember distant loved ones,or earlier times of their lives,was memory.Children could not know what their parents had looked like as young people,grandparents far away might never learn what their grandchildren looked like.Eastman Kodak allowed memory to move from the uncertainty of recollection,to the permanence of a photograph.But it wasn't just people whose features were savable; it was events,the sacred and precious times that families cherish.The Kodak moment,was humanity's moment.And it wasn't just people whose features were savable; it was events,the precious times that families cherish.Kodak let the fleeting moments of birthdays and weddings,picnics and parties,be preserved and saved.It allowed for the creation of the most egalitarian art form.Lovers could take one another's pictures,children were photographed walking out the door on the first day of school,the person releasing the shutter decided what was worth recording,and hundreds of millions of such decisions were made.And for centuries to come,those long dead will smile and dance and communicate to their unborn progeny(子孙).Family history will be not only names on paper,but smiles on faces.The cash flow not just provided thousands of people with job,but also allowed the company's founder to engage in some of the most generous charity in America's history.Not just in Kodak's home city of Rochester,New York,but in Tuskegee and London,and at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.He bankrolled(资助) two historically black colleges,fixe d the teeth of Europe's poor,and quietly did good wherever he could.While doing good,Kodak did very well.Over all the years,all the Kodakers over all the years are essential parts of that monumental legacy.They prospered a great company,but they—with that company—blessed the world.That is what we should remember about the Eastman Kodak Company.Like its founder,we should remember how it lived,not how it died.History will forget the small men who have scuttled this company.But history will never forget Kodak.【语篇解读】文章叙述了柯达公司的没落,柯达公司对世界作出的巨大贡献以及作者对柯达公司的敬仰。

题型组合练(四)Ⅰ.阅读理解——科普知识(2017·通、扬、泰、淮高三三模)Larger brain size linked to longer life in deerThe size of a female animal's brain may determine whether they live longer and have more healthy offspring(后代),according to a new research led by the University of Cambridge.The study,published in the Royal Society Open Science journal,shows that female red deer with larger brains live longer and have more surviving offspring than those with smaller brains.Brain size is passed down through the generations.This is the first extensive study of individual differences in brain size in wild mammals and draws on data comparing seven generations of deer.Across species of mammals,brain size varies widely.This is thought to be a consequence of specific differences in the benefits and costs of a larger brain.Mammals with larger brains may,for example,have greater cognitive abilities that enable them to adapt better to environmental changes or they may have longer lifespans(寿命).But there may also be disadvantages: for instance,larger brains require more energy,so individuals that possess them may show reduced fertility(繁殖力).The researchers,based at the University of Cambridge's Zoology Department and Edinburgh University's Institute of Evolutionary Biology,wanted to test if they could find more direct genetic or nongenetic evidence of the costs and benefits of large brain size by comparing the longevity(长寿)and survival of individuals of the same species with different sized ing the skulls of 1,314 wild red deer whose life histories and breeding success had been monitored in the course of a longterm study on the Isle of Rum,they found that females with larger endocranial volumes(脑腔容量)lived longer and produced more surviving offspring in the course of their lives.Lead author Dr Corina Logan,a Gates Cambridge Scholar,says,“The reasons for the association between brain size and longevity are not known,but other studieshave suggested that larger brains are a consequence of the longerlived species having longer developmental periods in which the brain can grow.These hypotheses(假设)were generated from cross-species correlations;however,testing such hypotheses requires investigations at the within species level,which is what we did.”Dr Logan adds,“We found that some of the crossspecies predictions about brain size held for female red deer,and that none of the predictions were supported in male red deer.This indicates that each sex likely experiences its own set of tradeoffs(权衡,协调)with regard to brain size.” The study also showed that females' relative endocranial volume is smaller than that of males,despite evidence of selection for larger brains in females.Professor Tim CluttonBrock,who set up the Rum Red Deer study with Fiona Guinness in 1972 and initiated the work on brain size,points out,“The reason that this kind of study has not been conducted before is that it requires longterm records of a large number of individuals across multiple generations and data of this kind are still rare in wild animals.”【语篇解读】本文是说明文。

A(2017·湖北黄冈高三质量检测)South KoreaWhile many South Koreans prefer Westernstyle weddings in which the bride wears a white wedding dress, some couples are still carrying out the “Pyebaek”—a South Korean wedding custom.The Pyebaek is held after the official ceremony, and is when the bride pays respects to her parents-in-law for the first time.The new couple bow deeply before the parents, and they exchange jujube(枣) and chestnuts(栗子)—symbols for children and good fortune.—Sujean Park, HuffPost South Korea JapanFor Japanese weddings, it’s customary for guests to bring cash as a gift for the new couples.The amount depends on the guest’s relationship to the couple—on average, friends would give $300, and family members may give up to $1,000.The bills should be unfolded, freshly printed.They’re typically put in a special envelope signed by the guest.Guests leave the envelopes at a reception desk at the ceremony and receive wedding favors in return.—Ryan Takeshita, HuffPost Japan BrazilIn Brazilian weddings, the best man cuts the groom’s tie into several pieces and sells them to the wedding guests at whatever price they choose to pay for it.The money that’s collected usually goes toward the c ouple’s honeymoon.Brazilian weddings wouldn’t be complete without pastries called “bemcasados”,or “happily married”.These are tiny sweet cakes with a condensed milk(炼乳) filling that are meant to bring good luck to the new couples.—Andrea Martinelli, HuffPost Brazil 1.In South Korean weddings,________.A.only Westernstyle weddings are favoredB.the couple must both wear a white dressC.the bride shows respects to her parentsD.some couples still observe their traditions2.When attending a Japanese friend’s wedding, you’d better________.A.fold the new bills in an envelopeB.contain $300 in a special envelopeC.carry an envelope with a letter as a giftD.give more than $1,000 to the new couple3.Why do people make pastries in Brazilian weddings?A.To share the new couple’s stories.B.To raise money for the new couple.C.To show their excellent cooking skills.D.To express good wishes to the new couple.4.What’s the purpose of writing this text?A.To share some wedding customs around the world.B.To tell people how to make preparations for weddings.C.To show the different customs between different countries.D.To check how much you know about wedding customs.B(2017·福建泉州检测)It was an old apartment building, in which many parts are made of wood.Regardless of the warning of firemen, the residents wouldn’t move out because they were poor and had nowhere to go.One night, the building was on fire.The residents began to run for their lives.When half of the population had got themselves out, the wooden staircases broke down.The remaining residents rushed to the roof of the third floor, which had not been touched by the flames yet, waiting for the firemen to rescue them.Firemen did arrive in a short while.But the fire engines and ladders could not reach the building as the alley was too narrow to allow the passage.The situation was critical, since the fire might burn the roof at any moment.The firemen placed a few cushions on the floor, and got some quilts from the nearby houses to add to the pile.Then they asked the people on the burning building to jump on the pile after they had shown how.A man jumped down, bottom touching the pile, uninjured.Another person jumped down, uninjured...They jumped one after another, all safe.Finally, Singermary became the only remaining one on the roof, hesitating while the fire was swallowing the roof soon.People shouted,“Jump, jump!” Singermary jumped, but she jumped head down with open arms.People were amazed and greatly shocked.How could she do such a jump? It was a suicide gesture! Fortunately, the cushions were very thick.She did not die, but injured seriously, saying with what strength she got, “Please take me to hospital!” She waspregnant, and she had jumped head down in order to keep the child safe.That was mother’s love !

This question has caused controversy for many years.A new study in rats now augments those concerns.Its data linked long-term, intense exposure to radiation from cellphones with an increased risk of cancer in the heart or brain.The results have yet to be confirmed, the authors note.Indeed, although the rat study found a link between cellphone radiation and cancer, it offersno clues to why such a link might exist, notes Jonathan Samet.He teaches preventative medicine and directs the Institute for Global Health at the University of Southern California in Los Angeles.Still, he calls the new study’s findings “significant”.They could lead to studies researching how cellphone radiation might cause cancer, he says.Phone signals are relayed between cell towers and cellphones via radio waves.This radio frequency—or RF—radiation is a type known as non-ionizing(非电离的).Unlike X-rays, nonionizing radiation does not deposit enough energy into cells to release electrons from atoms or molecules, producing ions.So it tends to be far less harmful than ionizing radiation, such as X-rays.But that does not mean radio waves might not cause harm.In very large doses(量) this radiation will heat the body and cause tissue damage.But it’s not yet known what much lower RF levels might do, such as those from cellphone use.Five years ago, the World Health Organization’s International Agency for Research on Cancer, or IARC, concluded that cellphone use“is possibly carcinogenic(致癌的)”.Its conclusion was based on what little research data was available at that time.But notice that IARC was no t certain.It said only that phone use might “possibly”cause cancer.So scientists at the National Toxicology Program, or NTP, investigated further.13.Which of the following can replace the underlined word “augments”in Paragraph 1?A.Figures out. B.Puts out.C.Refers to. D.Adds to.14.In which aspect does Jonathan Samet think the new study in rats is significant?A.It assists him with his teaching.B.It indicates a new research direction.C.It warns people to mind cellphone safety.D.It makes a breakthrough in cancer research.15.What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?A.How phone signals are delivered.B.How cellphones produce radiation.C.Features of radiation from cellphones.D.Differences between ionizing and non-ionizing radiation.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Once when I returned in tears from a Saturday baseball game,Steve took time to ask me what had happened.When I explained that my baseball had broken Mrs Holt’s basement window,Steve encouraged me to confess to it.After all,I should have been playing in the park and not in the path between buildings.Although my knees knocked as I explained to Mrs Holt,I offered to pay for the window if she would return my ball.I also learned from Steve that personal property (财产)is a sacred thing.After I found a shiny silver pen in my fifth-grade classroom, I wanted to keep it, but Steve explained that it might be important to someone else.I returned the pen to my teacher,Mrs Davids,and she praised me.Yet of all the instructions Steve gave me,his respect for life is the most vivid in my mind.When I was twelve,I killed an old brown sparrow in the yard with a BB gun.Excited with my accuracy,I screamed to Steve to come from the house to take a look.I shall never forget the way he stood for a long moment and stared at the bird on the ground.Then in a dead,quiet voice,he asked,“Did it hurt you first,Mark?”I didn’t know what to answer.He continued with his eyes firm,“ The only time you should even think of hurting a living thing is whether it hurts you first.And then you think a long,long time.”I really felt terrible then,but that moment stands out as the most important lesson my brother taught me.语篇解读本文是一篇记叙文,介绍了“我”的哥哥陪伴“我”成长的经历:他鼓励“我”勇于承担打碎窗户的责任;向老师送回捡到的钢笔;他还教育“我”尊重生命。

Cities tend to be short of trees, which provide shade, and they are covered with black pavement, which absorbs heat from the sun. Think of how it feels to wear a dark shirt versus a white shirt on a sunny day. A black shirt absorbs light, heating you up. But a white shirt reflects light, keeping you cool.The average temperature in a city of a million or more people can be more than 5 degrees F hotter than surrounding areas. That extra 5 degrees can turn a hot day from uncomfortable to deadly. As temperatures rise, cities will be an especially dangerous place to be during a heat wave. To protect public health, city officials are going to make the city cooler.As part of that effort, Los Angeles is coating its roads in CoolSeal, a gray paint that keeps streets and parking lots 10 degrees cooler than black asphalt(沥青). It will help Angelinos save money during the summer, when air conditioning sends power bills soaring. And it will save lives by lowering temperatures and improving air quality. Hot weather worsens air pollution by turning car exhaust into smog, which can make life miserable for people with asthma(哮喘)and other breathing problems.Of course, LA will have to do more than paint over a few streets to cool off the city. Angelinos will also need to plant more trees and apply white paint to rooftops — a t least those not already covered in solar panels. While LA is a pioneer of reflective streets, other cities, like New York, are already experimenting with reflective roofs or, like Melbourne, lowering the temperature by planting trees. LA is hardly alone in its effort to stay cool.“This is an urgent challenge, and it’s much bigger than one person,” said Mayor Garcetti in a recent statement. “Climate change is a fact of life that people in Los Angeles and cities around the world live with every day.”8. Which of the following contributes to the urban heat island effect?A. Planting more trees in the streets.B. Covering the streets with white paint.C. Applying reflective paint to rooftops.D. Furnishing every house with air conditioners.9. What should the city officials emphasize during hot summer?A. How to make the city cooler.B. Where to wear a white shirt.C. Why to coat the roads with black paint.D. When to cut off the electricity supply.10. What benefit can people gain from the use of CoolSeal?A. Increasing the indoor activities.B. Promoting the sale of air conditioners.C. Making life easier and more comfortable.D. Reducing the number of cold days.【答案】8. D 9. A 10. C9. A【名题点睛】细节理解题一一对应型。

高考高三英语二轮专题复习:阅读理解(附参考答案) ATERNANG,Mon—More than 10 000 people were made homeless in Ternang when the Sungai Mas overflowed its banks yesterday after six days of continuous heavy rain.Flooding first appeared at mid-afternoon yesterday along the river banks.People straggling higher ground were just in time to get away from the destroy of the flood.Most of the flood victims had to leave their possessions behind.The flood victims are now housed in various make-shift relief centers in the nearby town of Tu lang.“Everything possible is being done to help the unfortunate people.”A government spokesman said,“In fact,money,food and clothing have begun to come in from p ublic-spirited organizations and generous persons.”According to latest reports it is still raining heavily at Ternang.The whole town is expected to be totally covered by water.So far no casualty has been reported.56.According to the latest report .A.it had been raining for six daysB.more than 10 000 people had no place to liveC.the town had already been totally floodedD.the government tried its best to help the homeless people57.With the help of the government,the flood victims .A.were safe at higher placeB.got everything they neededC.lived comfortably in the relief centersD.were brought to Tulang within three hours58.The word “casualty”in the last sentence means .A.the house that is being builtB.the money that is given to the victimsC.the person killed or injured in an accidentD.the things lost in the floodBGlynis Davis:I first piled on the ponds when I was in the family way and I couldn’t lose them afterwards.Then I joined a slimming club.My target was 140 pounds and I lost 30 pounds in six months.I felt great and people kept saying how good I looked.But Christmas came and I started to slip back into my old eating habits.I told myself I’d lose the weight at slimming classes in the new year…but it didn’t happen.Instead of losing the pounds.I put them on.I’d lost willpower and tried to believe that the old bage of fish and chips didn’t make any difference but the scales don’t lie.Roz Juma:To be honest,I never weigh myself any more I’ve leant to be happy with myself.It seemed to me that I would feel sorry about every spoonful of tasty food that passed my lips.My idea is simple.You shouldn’t be too much thinking about food and dieting.Instea d,you should get on with life and stop dreaming of a supper-thin body.This is obviously the size I’m meant to be and,most of all.I’m happy with it.Lesley Codwin:I was very happy about winning Young Silmmer of the Year.I’d look in the mirror unable to believe this slim lady was me!That might have been my problem——perhaps from then on I didn’t pay any attention to myself.Winning a national competition makes everything worse,though,because you feel the eyes of the world are fixed upon you.I feel a complete failure because I’ve put onweight again.Ros Langfod:Before moving in with my husband Gavin,I’d always been about 110 pounds,but th e pleasant housework went straight to my waist and I put on 15 pounds in a year.Every so often I try to go on a diet …I’m really good on a few days,then end up having the childr en’s leftovers or eating happily chocolate——my weakness.I’d like to be slim,but right now my duty is the children and home.I might take more exercise when my kids are older.59.What do you think the four women were all talking about?A.Their own slimming matter.B.Their life after marriage.C.Their work as a housewife.D.Different diets they prefer.60.Where are these short passage most likely to be taken from?A.Talks on the air.B.Advertisements on the well.C.Book in a library.D.Magazines for children.61.What does the underlined word “scales”possibly mean?A.The coach(教练)in the slimming club.B.Some tool to measure weight.C.Glynis Davis’dear husband.D.The salesperson in a food shop.62.Which of the following best describes each of the four women’s attitudes towards slimming?1.Glynis Davis a.I put on weight soon after got married2.Ros Jums b.Fame(名声)doesn’t necessarily mean success3.Leslcy Gowin c.Facts speak much louder than words4.Ros landford d.I like myself as I am,and to be what you areA.1-c;2-d;3-b;4-aB.1-c;2-b;3-d;4-aC.1-d;2-a;3-b;4-cD.1-a;2-b;3-c;4-dCChinese basketball players have never been so close to the NBA before but questions remain about how they will adjust to life in the NBA if they go.Wang Zhizhi,the 2.16-metre center for the Bayi Rockets who was chosen by the Dallas Mavericks two years ago,has finally received permission from authorities to travel to Dallas to play for the rest of the NBA season after he finishes playing in the Chinese Basketball Association’s finals on March 25th.If he has no problems with his visa(签证),Wang will be the NBA’s first Asian player.Wang was chosen by the Mavericks in the second round of the 1999 draft but the Rockets,and army-run club,refused to let him go.After negotiations(谈判)between the Rockets and NBA representatives(代表),the decision was made to allow Wang the chance to try his hand at American basketball,but only for a period of short time.He has to be back to play in the Ninth National Games in November in Guangzhou.Another center who has attracted attention from the NBA is Yao Ming,the 2.25-meter star who has led to the Shanghai Sharks into the finals fight with the Rockets this year.The 20-year-old’s NBA dreams might be harder to realize.Yao is the center of the Sharks and the club’s manager Bei Genyuan has said that he would allow Yao to go only at a proper time,for a proper team and under proper conditions.Yao hasn’t been chosen yet and it is unlikely that he will be any time soon.People in the Shark’s front office earlier told members of the press that “it is not proper for Yao to attend the draft thisyear”because he has to represent Shanghai in the Ninth National Games.Even if Wang and Yao make it to the promised land of basketball at last,analysts on both sides of the Pacific have said the NBA road will be a long one for both of them.Besides needing to work on their upper body strength,Wang and Yao will also have to adapt(适应)to the speed,techniques and above all,culture of the NBA.63.Yao Ming has attracted attention from NBA because .A.he is 2.25 metres tall,who is the tallest basketball player in ChinaB.he is the center of the Shanghai Sharks and has led Sharks into the final fight with the RocketsC.he is regarded as the best basketball player in ChinaD.he is thought highly of in the international world64.Yao Ming can play for NBA if .A.there is no problem with his visaB.NBA agrees to supply favorable conditions for himC.time and conditions are properD.NBA can pay a large sum of money for Sharks65.The underlined phrase“try his hand”in the passage probably means .A.初试身手B.碰碰运气C.成为一员D.为其效劳66.NBA chose Wang Zhizhi so that .A.it can show NBA need talentsB.Wang Zhizhi can have a bright futureC.its whole level will be improvedD.it can make Wang Zhizhi world-famous67.When Wang Zhizhi plays in NBA,he will have to adapt to many things of NBA except .A.rules of basketballB.the speedC.cultureD.techniquesDAntigua and Barbuda is the 32nd

look November 1 as his own independent day in Antigua and BarbudaC.November 1 must be the national day of Antigua and BarbudaD.English,Spanish and French are widely used by the governmentEOne evening Mr.Green was driving in his car along a lonely country road.He had been to London where he had drawn £50 from the bank,and he was now returning home with the money which he had put in his pocket book.At the loneliest part of the road a man in shabby,badly-fitting clothes stopped him and asked for a lift.Mr.Green told him to get into the car and continued on his way.As he talked to the man he learned that he had been in prison for robbery and had broken out of prison two days ago.Mr. Green was very worried at the thought of the £50 that he had put in his pocket book.Suddenly he saw a police-car and had a bright idea.He had just reached a small town where the speed limit was 30 miles an hour.He pressed down the accelerator and drove the car as fast as it would go.He looked back and saw that the police-car had seen him and had begun to chase him.After a mile or so the police-car overtook him and ordered him to stop.A policeman got out and came to Mr.Green’s car.Mr.Green had hoped that he could tell the policeman about the escaped robber,but the man had taken a gun out of his pocket and had put it to Mr.Green’s back.The policeman took out his notebook and pencil and said he wanted M r.Green’s name and address.Mr.Green asked to be taken to the police station but the policeman said,“No,I want your name and address now.You will have to appear at the police court later.”So,Mr.Green gave the policeman his name and address.The policeman wro te it down,put his notebook and pencil back in his pocket and gave Mr.Green a talk about dangerous driving.Then Mr.Green started up his car again and drove on.He had given up all hope of his £50,but just as he reached the outskirts of London,the passenger said he wanted to get out here.Mr.Green stopped the car,the man got out and said,“Thanks for the lift.You’ve been good to me.This is the least I can do in return.”And he handed Mr.Green the policeman’s notebook. While the policeman had talked to Mr.Green,the thief had stolen the notebook.72.What was Mr.Green worried about when he learned the man was an escaped robber?A.The £50 in his pocket book.B.His life.C.His car.D.His pocket book.73.Which of the following is true?A.Mr.Green wanted to be taken to the police station right away but the policeman refused him.B.The policeman asked Mr.Green to come to the police station right away.C.The policeman told Mr.Green that he would have to pay a fine.D.Mr.Green would not give his name and address but promised to appear at the police court later.74.What did the robber give Mr.Green when he got out of the car?A.The pistol he had put to the back of Mr.Green.B.Some money.C.Some money and the stolen notebook.D.The policeman’s notebook.75.Why did the robber steal the policeman’s notebook?A.He wanted to show he could do something other people could not do.B.He thought he should do something to save Mr.Green from trouble.C.He had no other purpose but playing a trick on the policeman.D.He meant to use the notebook to pay for the life.56~60 DBCAA 61~65 BABCA 66~70 CADDC 71~75 BAADB。

A(2017·哈尔滨师范大学附属中学高三期末) Karen,grown up in a very traditional family in the western United States,maintained high moral(道德的)standards throughout her youth.In 1984,at the age of 23,she married Bill.They were_blessed_with two children,a boy and a girl.By 1991 their love had deepened,and they were ter that year,Bill developed a white spot on his tongue.He visited a doctor.One day shortly after that,Bill called Karen to sit beside him.He said with tears in his eyes that he loved her and wanted to live forever with her.The doctor suspected that he had been infected with HIV,the virus that leads to AIDS.The family was tested.Bill and Karen’s results were positive.Bill had become infected before he met Karen; then he passed the virus on to Karen.The children’s results were negative.Within three years,Bill was dead,“I don’t know how to express what it is like to watch the once handsome man you love and intend to live with forever dying slowly.I cried many nights.He died three months short of ten years of our marriage,” says Karen.Though a doctor told Karen that she would soon follow her husband into death,she is still alive.The infection has progressed to the early stages of AIDS.Karen is one of about 30 million people now living with HIV/AIDS,a figure larger than the combined populations of Australia,Iceland and Paraguay.According to one UN report,Africa has 21 million of these victims.By the turn of the century that number could reach 40 million and the disease will bring on the greatest disaster in human history.Of the world’s sexually active adults aged 15 to 49,1 in 100 has already been infected with HIV.Of these,only 1 in 10 realizes that he or she is infected.In some parts of Africa,25 percent of adults are inflected.Since the beginning of spread of AIDS in 1981 ,about 11.7 million people have died of it.It is roughly calculated that in 1997 alone,about 2.3 million people died of it.Nevertheless,there are fresh reasons for optimism in the battle against AIDS.During the past few years,there has been a drop in new AIDS cases in wealthy nations.In addition,promising drugs hold out hope of better health and longer life.语篇解读本文作者通过一个故事介绍了艾滋病所带来的痛苦以及目前医学对艾滋病防治研究的进展。

A(2017·深圳第一次调研) Much information can be conveyed,purely through our eyes,so the expression “eyes also talk” is often heard.Can you recall any experience that further proves this statement?On a bus you may quickly glance at a stranger,but not make eye contact.If he senses that he is being stared at,he may feel uncomfortable.It is the same in daily life.If you are stared at for more than necessary,you will look at yourself up and down to see if there is anything wrong with you.If nothing goes wrong,you will feel angry about others’ staring at you that way.Eyes do convey information,right?Looking too long at someone may seem to be rude and aggressive.But things are different when it comes to staring at the opposite sex.If a man looks at a woman for more than 10 seconds and refuses to turn away his gaze (注视) ,his intentions are obvious.That is,he wishes to attract her attention,to make her understand that he is showing affection for her.However,the normal eye contact for two people engaged in conversation is that the speaker will only look at the listener from time to time,in order to make sure that the listener does pay attention to what the former is speaking,to tell him that he is attentive.If a speaker looks at you continuously when speaking,as if he tries to control you,you will feel uneasy.A poor liar usually exposes himself by looking too long at the victim,since he believes the false idea that to look straight in the eye is a sign of honest communication.In fact,continuous eye contact happens between lovers only,who will enjoy looking at each other tenderly for a long time,to show love that words cannot express.Evidently,eye contact should be done according to the relationship between two people and the specific situation.语篇解读本文介绍了“眼睛会说话”的观点,告诉我们不同场合眼神交流所代表的不同含义。

(2017·衡阳第八中学、永州市第四中学联考)A“My work is done.”Those words were some of the last penned by George Eastman.He included them in his suicide note.They mark an ignoble end to a noble life,the leave taking of a truly great man.The same words could now be said for the company he left behind.Actually,the Eastman Kodak Company is through.It has been mismanaged financially,technologically and competitively.For 20 years,its leaders have foolishly spent down the patrimony of a century's prosperity.One of America's bedrock brands is about to disappear,the Kodak moment has passed.But George Eastman is not how he died,and the Eastman Kodak Company is not how it is being killed.Though the ends be needless and premature,they must not be allowed to overshadow the greatness that came before.Few companies have done so much good for so many people,or defined and lifted so profoundly the spirit of a nation and perhaps the world.It is impossible to understand the 20th Century without recognizing the role of the Eastman Kodak Company.Kodak served mankind through entertainment,science,national defense and the stockpiling of family memories.Kodak took us to the top of Mount Suribachi and to the Sea of Tranquility.It introduced us to the merry old Land of Oz and to stars from Charlie Chaplin to John Wayne,and Elizabeth Taylor to Tom Hanks.It showed us the shot that killed President Kennedy,and his brother bleeding out on a kitchen floor,and a fallen Martin Luther King Jr.on the hard balcony of a Memphis motel.When that sailor kissed the nurse,and when the spy planes saw missiles in Cuba,Kodak was the eyes of a nation.From the deck of the Missouri to the grandeur of Monument Valley,Kodak took us there.Virtually every significant image of the 20th Century is a gift to posterity(繁荣) from the Eastman Kodak Company.In an era of easy digital photography,when we can take a picture of anything at any time,we cannot imagine what life was like before George Eastman brought photography to people.Yes,there were photograph ers,and for relatively large sums of money they would take stilted(不自然的) pictures in studios and formalsettings.But most people couldn't afford photographs,and so all they had to remember distant loved ones,or earlier times of their lives,was memory.Children could not know what their parents had looked like as young people,grandparents far away might never learn what their grandchildren looked like.Eastman Kodak allowed memory to move from the uncertainty of recollection,to the permanence of a photograph.But it wasn't just people whose features were savable; it was events,the sacred and precious times that families cherish.The Kodak moment,was humanity's moment.And it wasn't just people whose features were savable; it was events,the precious times that families cherish.Kodak let the fleeting moments of birthdays and weddings,picnics and parties,be preserved and saved.It allowed for the creation of the most egalitarian art form.Lovers could take one another's pictures,children were photographed walking out the door on the first day of school,the person releasing the shutter decided what was worth recording,and hundreds of millions of such decisions were made.And for centuries to come,those long dead will smile and dance and communicate to their unborn progeny(子孙).Family history will be not only names on paper,but smiles on faces.The cash flow not just provided thousands of people with job,but also allowed the company's founder to engage in some of the most generous charity in America's history.Not just in Kodak's home city of Rochester,New York,but in Tuskegee and London,and at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.He bankrolled(资助) two historically black colleges,fixe d the teeth of Europe's poor,and quietly did good wherever he could.While doing good,Kodak did very well.Over all the years,all the Kodakers over all the years are essential parts of that monumental legacy.They prospered a great company,but they—with that company—blessed the world.That is what we should remember about the Eastman Kodak Company.Like its founder,we should remember how it lived,not how it died.History will forget the small men who have scuttled this company.But history will never forget Kodak.【语篇解读】文章叙述了柯达公司的没落,柯达公司对世界作出的巨大贡献以及作者对柯达公司的敬仰。
2018高考英语(通用)二轮训练:阅读理解(词义猜测)含答案
2018高考英语(通用)二轮训练:阅读理解(词义猜测)含答案阅读理解---词句猜测题词句猜测题常见命题方式:1.The underlined word...in the...paragraph refers to/means “”.2.By saying...in the first paragraph,the author means that . 3.The meaning of...in Paragraph...is related to .4.Which of the following has the closest meaning to...(Paragraph...)? 5.The underlined sentence...in the...paragraph probably means that . 6.Which of the following words can take the place of the word “...”?1.单词或短语意义猜测词汇量小是制约学生阅读理解能力的一个重要因素。
具体技巧如下:(1)根据定义或上下文解释进行猜测。
有时短文中出现一个需要猜测其意义的词或短语,下面接着出现其定义或解释,这就是判断该词或短语意义的主要依据。
(2)根据同位关系进行猜测。
阅读中出现的难词有时后面紧跟一个同位语,对前面的词进行解释,这时可利用同位关系对前面或后面的词义或短语意义进行猜测。
(3)根据同义关系进行猜测。
当词或短语之间有并列连词and 或or时,其连接的两项内容在含义上是接近的或递进的或相反的,由此确定同等关系中的某个生词所属的义域,进而可推知其大致意思。
(4)根据构词法(合成、派生、转化等)进行猜测。
在英语中,有很多词可以在前面加前缀或在后面加后缀,从而构成另外一个词,乍看起来,这个词可能是新词,但掌握了一定的构词知识,就不难猜出它的词义了。
(5)根据因果关系进行猜测。

A(2017·长沙十校联考)(导学号 58210048)If you look outside,you probably will see some kind of insect.If your first instinct is to kill it,take a moment to think about all of the benefits insects provide to the environment.Entomologists,scientists who study insects,estimate that there are more than 800,000 species of insects found throughout the world.Only a few hundred of these insects are considered harmful.Mosquitoes,for example,are considered harmful.They bite humans and other animals,and their bites can cause skin pain and spread disease.Desert locusts also are considered harmful because they destroy crops causing billions of dollars in damage each year.However,the number of helpful insect species far outweighs the number of harmful species.Some insects make up a vital part of the food chain.Many different birds,reptiles,fish and even plants eat insects.There are also about 500 insects that people in various parts of the world eat.These insects are considered delicious fo od and prized for their high protein,mineral,and vitamin content.Other insects produce valuable commercial products such as silk,wax,and honey.Of all the insects,perhaps the most important are those that travel from flower to flower and pollinate(授粉) the plants they visit.Agriculture around the world would be very different without the bees,butterflies,moths,flies and wasps that pollinate many crops.In fact,nearly one-third of the food you eat depends on plants that are pollinated by insects!While it is true that some species of insects harm or annoy us,you_should_not_automatically_reach_for_the_bug_spray when you come across an insect.You may be destroying one of the hundreds of thousands of insects that provides many benefits to human beings.【语篇解读】本文主要讲了昆虫对于环境有一定的益处,而且益虫要远远多于害虫。

答案:CB(2015·全国卷Ⅰ)The freezing Northeast hasn't been a terribly fun place to spend time this winter,so when the chance came for a weekend to Sarasota,Florida,my bags were packed before you could say“sunshine.”I left for the land of warmth and vitamin C (维生素C),thinking of beaches and orange trees.When we touched down to blue skies and warm air,I sent up a small prayer of gratefulness.Swimming pools,wine tasting,and pink sunsets (at normal evening hours,not 4 in the afternoon) filled the weekend,but the best part—particularly to my taste,dulled by months of cold-weather root vegetables—was a 7 a.m.adventure to the Sarasota farmers' market that proved to be more than worth the early wake-up call.The market,which was founded in 1979,sets up its tents every Saturday from 7 a.m.to 1 p.m.,rain or shine,along North Lemon and State streets.Baskets of perfect red strawberries;the red-painted sides of the Java Dawg coffee truck;and most of all,the tomatoes:amazing,large,soft and round red tomatoes.Disappointed by many a br oken,vine-ripened (蔓上成熟的) promise,I've refused to buy winter tomatoes for years.No matter how at tractive they look in the store,once I get them home they're unfailingly dry,hard,and tasteless.But I homed in,with uncertainty,on one particular table at the Brown's Grove Farm's stand,ful l of fresh and soft tom atoes the size of my fist.These were the real deal—and at that moment,I realized that the best part of Sarasota in winter was going to be eating things that back home in New York I wouldn't be experiencing again for months.Delighted as I was by the tomatoes in sight,my happiness deepened when I learned that Brown's Grove Farm is one of the suppliers for Jack Dusty,a newly opened restaurant at the Sarasota Ritz Carlton,where—luckily for me—I was planning to have dinner that very night.Without even seeing the menu,I knew I'd be ordering every tomato on it.【语篇解读】文章讲述了作者生活在冬天寒冷的纽约,当有一个到佛罗里达州萨拉索塔一周的机会,作者体验到不同的冬天。
