广东省揭阳市高中英语阅读理解最新高考试题精选

一、高中英语阅读理解1．阅读理解It was the beginning of 2011. I had just finished filming the first season of Game of Thrones(《权利的游戏》). With almost no professional experience, I had been given the role of Daenerys Targaryen. The show was so successful that young girls would dress themselves up as Daenerys for Halloween.And yet, terrified of the attention, terrified of trying to make good on the faith that the creators had put in me, I worked much harder.On the morning of February 11, 2011, I was getting dressed in a gym when I started to feel a bad headache. I was so exhausted that I could barely put on my sneakers. I tried to ignore the pain, but I couldn't. I reached the toilet and sank to my knees. A woman came to help me. Then everything became unclear. I only remember the sound of an ambulance.That operation lasted three hours. When I woke, the pain was unbearable. After four days, they moved me out of the I.C.U. (重症监护室). But one day when a nurse asked me, as part of a series of cognitive (认知的) exercises, " What's your name?", I couldn't remember my name and I felt terrified: I am an actor; I need to remember my lines. Now, I couldn't recall my name.The phenomenon is called aphasia. Then I was sent back to the I.C.U. and, after about a week, I was able to speak and know my name. And I was also aware that there were people in the beds around me who didn't make it out of the I.C.U. I was continually reminded of just how fortunate I was.I rarely gave a thought to my health. Nearly all I thought about was acting. I thought of myself as healthy. Once in a while, I would get dizzy. When I was fourteen, I had a migraine (偏头痛) that kept me in bed for a couple of days. But it all seemed manageable — part of the stress of being an actor. Now I think I might have been experiencing warning signs of what was to come.Anyway, there is something pleasant about coming to the end of Thrones. And I'm so happy to be here to see the beginning of whatever comes next.（1）The author felt terrified after acting in the first season of Game of Thrones because _____.①she felt nervous about the public attention.②she had been criticized for her lack of experience.③she was experiencing some warning signs of a serious illness.④she wasn't sure if she had perform ed well in Season 1.A. ①④B. ②③C. ①②D. ③④（2）When did the author lose consciousness?A.

（1）考查细节理解。

根据第一段中的“With almost no professional experience, I had been given the role of Daenerys Targaryen. ”由于几乎没有任何专业经验，我得到了丹妮莉丝·坦格利安这个角色。

可知作者觉得她认为自己没经验害怕不能很好完成；“And yet, terrified of the attention, terrified of trying to make good on the faith that the creators had put in me, I worked much harder.” 然而，由于害怕受到关注，害怕兑现创作者对我的信任，我更加努力地工作。

可知作者害怕公众的关注。

故选A。

（2）考查细节理解。

根据第三段中的“A woman came to help me. Then everything became unclear.”可知，一个女人来帮助我。

然后一切都变得模糊不清。

作者是一个女人在健身房里救了她之后失去意识的。

故选B。

（3）考查推理判断。

根据第四段中的“B ut one day when a nurse asked me, as part of a series of cognitive (认知的) exercises, ‘ What's your name?’, I couldn't remember my name and I felt terrified: I am an actor; I need to remember my lines. Now, I couldn't recall my name.”这个过程的描述可知，患有失语症者会记不得事情，哪怕是自己的姓名。

故一个患有失语症的病人会不记得过去的事情。

故选D。

（4）考查推理判断。

根据最后一段中的“Anyway, there is something pleasant about coming to the end of Thrones. And I'm so happy to be here to see the beginning of whatever comes next.”可知，不管怎样，能演完《权力的游戏》是一件令人愉快的事情。

我很高兴还在这里，见证未来的开始。

所以通过这次生病，作者意识到自己的健康出了问题，但作者很感激自己身体还是很健康，判断出作者将来会更加注意她的健康。

更好地演戏。

故选D。

【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解和推理判断两个题型的考查，是一篇故事类阅读，考生需要准确捕捉细节信息，并根据上下文进行逻辑推理，从而选出正确答案。

2．阅读理解At 23 I applied for full-time positions with no intention of working five days a week. As a housewife, I had two pre-school children then but wanted to work three days a week.This was a huge deal for me. I needed to work, but also wanted to spend time with my childrenwhile they were young. I didn't want to miss out on school drop-offs and pick-ups. But I also didn't want to miss out on the opportunity of promotion.Before the interviews, I prepared a plan of how I was going to make this work for me and the employer. I saw it as a two-way agreement — the business adapting to me and me adapting to the business.Finally I became a member of EY at 33. EY was the only firm that seemed receptive to my plan; in fact, we spent time during that first interview talking about how we could make it work together. Most importantly, the person interviewing me worked flexibly too — four days a week.I appreciated that I'm one of the lucky ones. Even 10 years on, flexible hiring and working remains the exception rather than the rule for most.What will help shift views and behavior, in addition to organizations updating their hiring policies, is talking more openly about how most of us organize our day around our responsibilities. We all have a life outside of work and we shouldn't be embarrassed to talk about it, even during a job interview.It's a change in the way of thinking, not just for employers but employees too. In the early days I was confident about my ability but I probably did have a preconception (先入之见) that working part-time would limit my career progression. What I quickly realized was that if I took responsibility for my development, I could make sure that I got the same opportunities as if I was working full-time. So I offered solutions to how we could make it work, and it made me stand out.（1）Why did the author want a flexible job?A. To balance her work and life.B. To have more time to relax.C. To avoid too much stress in life.D. To stand out as a special woman.（2）What perhaps made the author become a member of EY?A. The time spent discussing her plan.B. Her relationship with the interviewer.C. Her great confidence in the interview.D. The interviewer's understanding her.（3）What does the author advise to apply for a flexible job?A. Trying to seize every opportunity one can get.B. Persuading the company to change its hiring policies.C. Being honest about one's personal life outside of work.D. Convincing the employer of one's responsibility for the job.（4）What can we infer about her job from the passage?A.It weakened her ability.B.It made her highly noticeable.C.It limited her career promotion.D.It caused her to earn less money.【答案】（1）A（2）D（3）D（4）B【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文，作者面试兼职工作时改变传统思路，脱颖而出获得机会，并以此而发表了自己的看法观点。
