(2018·湖北大冶模拟)Actress Danai Gurira calls herself a Zimerican. Her parents came from Zimbabwe. She was born in the American State of Iowa. But her family moved back to Harare, Zimbabwe, when she was five years old. She returned to the United States for college and has lived there ever since.
“I was always in a hodgepodge of culture,” she said. “There's no other identity I know, really.” The actress may be best known as Michonne, the zombiekiller in the television series The Walking Dead. But when Gurira is not killing zombies, she is busy with other projects. She recently played rapper Tupac Shakur's mother in a film. And she is now busy racing between theaters for two plays in New York City — plays that she wrote.
Her play Familiar is an offBroadway comedydrama. It centers on the cultural clashes between American and African traditions. The play takes place in the State of Minnesota. The eldest daughter of Zimbabwean parents is getting married to a white man. The story was taken from her own observations, Gurira said,“I was at a wedding and I was just struck by all of my family's absurdities - and my own included. And I just knew I couldn't not write about it!”The upper middleclass life of Familiar may seem familiar to many American audiences.
But the setting of her play Eclipsed— Gurira's Broadway debut (首次登台) —is something else entirely. Gurira decided to write Eclipsed after reading a New York Times story about the civil war in Liberia, and the young women who fought in it. She described it like this. “These were, like, 22,23yearold girls, women, who had, like, you know, little skimpy jeans on, little skimpy tops, and really looked cool and hip and current and then, they had these big AK47s on their backs.” Gurira went to Liberia and met with women who were former soldiers and peace negotiators. She wrote the play based on their stories.
“________”.
A.center B.dispute
C.understanding D.mixture
解析:选D 词义猜测题。
根据文章第一段可知,达娜·古瑞拉出生于美国,后随家人搬回津巴布韦,然后返回美国接受大学教育,之后便一直生活在美国。
因此,达娜·古瑞拉接受着多民族、多文化的教育。
由此可推测,hodgepodge意为“大杂烩”,与mixture意思相近。
故选D项。
26.What can we learn about Familiar?
A.It is a reflection of culture shock.
B.Gurira is getting married to a white man as the eldest daughter.
C.Gurira was sorry for her wedding in the U.S.
D.The story is from a magazine.
解析:选A 推理判断题。
根据第三段第二句“It centers on the cultural clashes between American and African traditions.”可知,戏剧Familiar以美国和非洲的文化冲突为主要关注点,因此是文化冲突的反映。
故选A项。
27.What's the best title of the text?
A.Culture Is the Key to Solving Problems
B.Actress Brings African Experiences to America
C.A Good African Writer
D.No Discrimination, No War
解析:选B 标题归纳题。
本文主要介绍了女演员达娜·古瑞拉将非洲的生活经历带入美国,在她创作和演出的戏剧中体现非洲元素的故事,因此B项作为文章标题最适合。
A项强调了文化的重要性,C项强调她是一位非洲的好作家,D项强调歧视和战争的关系,都没有从全文着眼,故排除。

Picture the scene. You're on your way home when you remember the fridge is empty but you don't have a pound for the trolley (手推车) and parking is a nightmare. Or you promised to pick up a sixpack of beer on the way to a friend's party but it's pouring with rain and parking is still a nightmare.Wouldn't it be great if you could pick up what you need without getting out of your car?
Russian inventor Dahir Kurmanbievich has thought of a drivethrough supermarket that would make all that possible.
A customer would drive up to an available bay, much like in a petrol station, and — while remaining in the car — select the goods by operating with a button. These goods are placed immediately onto a conveyor (传输) belt, where they travel a few feet to the checkout. When it is finished, the customer drives forward, pays
for the goods and drives off with them.
Mr Kurmanbievich said the i nvention is directed at “solving the technical problem of improving the quality of customer service while providing probable convenience and choice of products, reducing time to service customers, cutting the queue time and lowering the costs of the superm arket”. Socalled drivethrough supermarkets have already been tried by some big supermarkets, but these operate more like clickandcollect services as customers have to order their goods online between two hours and three weeks in advance.
While the driv ethrough supermarket would need a lot of space and infrastructure (基础设施) investment to get off the ground, it would combine the consumer's convenience and speed of buying goods online with the sales opportunities that come with product discovery on store shelves.
It's great while fuel prices are low. The question is: will driverless cars be able to do the shopping?
A.You can park your car wherever you like.
B.You can buy what you want in your car.
C.You can use the trolley free of charge.
D.You can protect yourself from heavy rain.
解析:选B 细节理解题。
根据第一段最后一句话可知,免下车超市里你可以不用下车就能买到你需要的商品。
故选B项。
29.When shopping in a drivethrough supermarket________.
A.customers will first drive into a petrol station
B.customers will operate their cars with a button
C.customers will put the goods onto a conveyor belt
D.customers will drive their cars to the checkout
解析:选D 细节理解题。
根据第三段可知,顾客在车里点击按钮操作,商品会立即到传输带上,然后驱车去结账带着东西离开,一切都在车里进行。
故选D项。
30.Which of the following is probably the main benefit for sellers?
A.Providing probable convenience.
B.Having more products to choose from.
C.Cutting the queue time.
D.Reducing service time and costs.
解析:选D 推理判断题。
根据第四段中的“reducing time to service customers”和“lowering the costs of the supermarket”可知,对于商家来说,免下车超市减少了服务顾客的时间并降低了成本。
其他三个选项都是对购物者的好处。
故选D项。
31.According to the writer, what will be necessary for a drivethrough supermarket?
A.A lot of space for cars.
B.The customer's convenience.
C.Speed of buying goods online.
D.Product discovery on store shelves.
解析:选A 细节理解题。
根据倒数第二段中的“the drivethrough supermarket would need a lot of space and infrastructure (基础设施) investment to get off the ground”可知,作者认为免下车超市需要为购物的汽车提供更大的空间。
故选A项。
D
(2018·河南省八市测评)I always believed that my parents had a good marriage, but just before I, the youngest of four children, turned sixteen, my belief was painfully tested. My father, who used to share in the chores around the house, gradually started becoming downhearted. From the time he came home from his job to the time he went to bed, he hardly spoke a word to my mom or us kids. The strain on my mom and dad's relationship was very evident. However, I was not prepared for the day that Mom told us that Dad had decided to leave. All that I could think of was that I was going to become a product of a divorced family. It was something I never thought possible, and it grieved me greatly, I kept telling myself that it wasn't going to happen, and I went totally numb when I knew my dad was really leaving. The night before he left, I stayed up in my room for a long time. I prayed and I cried and I wrote a long letter to my dad. I told him how much I loved him and how much I would miss him. I told him that I was praying for him and wanted him to know that, no matter what, Jesus and I loved him. I told him that I would always and forever be his Krissie ... his Noodles. As I folded my note, I stuck in a picture of me with a saying I had always heard:“Anyone can be a father, but it takes someone special to be a daddy.”
Early the next morning, as my dad left our house, I sneaked out to the car and slipped my letter into one of his bags.
Two weeks went by with hardly a word from my father. Then, one afternoon, I came
home from school to find my mom sitting at the dining room table waiting to talk to me. I could see in her eyes that she had been crying. She told me that Dad had been there and that they had talked for a long time. They decided that there were things that both of them could and would change and that their marriage was worth saving. Mom then turned her focus to my eyes.
“Krissie, Dad told me that you wrote him a letter. Can I ask what you wrote to him?”
I found it hard to share with my mom what I had written from my heart to my dad.
I mumbled a few words and shrugged.
A few days later my dad was back. We never talked about the letter, my dad and I. I guess I always figured that it was something that was a secret between us.
A.They left her alone.
B.They were getting divorced.
C.They shared in the chores together.
D.They had a good marriage.
解析:选B 细节理解题。
根据第一段中的“but just before I ... tested”和“The strain on my mom and dad's relationship was very evident. However, I was not prepared for the day that Mom told us that Dad had decided to leave ... of a divorced family”可知,作者16岁时父母之间的关系很紧张,父亲要和母亲离婚,决定离开他们。
33.What is the meaning of the underlined word “grieved” in Para. 1?
A.Made sb. angry. B.Made sb. delighted.
C.Made sb. sad. D.Made sb. greedy.
解析:选C 词义猜测题。
结合全文内容尤其是画线词前的“It was something I never thought possible”可知,作者并不希望父亲离开他们,所以当时她非常伤心。
34.What can we learn from the passage?
A.The author handed the letter directly to her father.
B.The author's father wrote back to her when he finished reading the letter.
C.The author's letter made a difference to her father.
D.The author shared what she wrote with her mother.
解析:选C 推理判断题。
根据第三段中的“She told me that ... was worth saving”和第四段中的“Krissie, Dad told me that you wrote him a letter”以及最后一段中的
“A few days later my dad was back”可知,作者给父亲写的信对父亲起了作用。
35.What might be the best title for the passage?
A.A Promise Kept B.A Letter of Apology
C.A Broken Family D.A Great Daddy
解析:选A 标题归纳题。
根据全文内容尤其是最后一段的“it was something that was a secret between us”可推知,作者和父亲在那封信中可能作了约定,因此选A。
第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
Growing Minds Need Greener Spaces
It is not a secret that spending time outdoors is good for us. The more we learn about the benefits of being in nature, the more sense it makes to get outside.
__36__New research suggests that kids may learn better when they are surrounded by greener spaces. Green spaces are spaces filled with vegetation — like trees, flowers and other plants.
But these days, outdoor time is competing for a child's attention with indoor activities. Children may find it difficult to resist computers, television and electronic games.__37__All these indoor activities can hurt a child's physical and mental health.
Doctor Payam Dadvand and his team at the Center for Research in Environmental Epidemiology in Barcelona study the environment effects on health and learning.
The researchers used information from satellites to learn how many green spaces surrounded each school.Over one year, the children took computerized tests four times.__38__They found that the children with higher contact with green spaces had better ability to memorize.They were also more attentive.__39__More trees mean less air pollution.
__40__Lisa Freund is an expert in child psychology for the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development. She says more studies are needed to learn the reasons that vegetation in and around schools improves mental ability.
A.They measured memory and attention span.
B.This could be especially important for school children.
C.Approximately one half of the world's population live in cities.
D.The question of why green spaces affect learning is a new one.
E.The research suggests good air quality is the main reason for the results.
F.So, in many parts of the world children are spending less and less time outdoors.
G.The researchers created mathematical models to compare the amount of vegetation.
周围环境对孩子的影响,故此处应用B项(这可能对学校的孩子们尤其重要)承上启下。
37.解析:选F 前面两句提到越来越多的孩子难以抵挡电脑、电视和电子游戏等室内活动的诱惑,用于室外活动的时间越来越少。
F项(因此,世界上很多地方的孩子在室外的时间越来越少)可承接上文。
38.解析:选A 本段介绍的是研究的过程。
后面两句介绍了研究结果。
A项说明研究人员测试了周围环境对孩子的记忆力和注意力的影响,用在此处符合逻辑。
39.解析:选E 空格前面两句说明了研究结果,E项(研究表明良好的空气质量是出现这种结果的主要原因)与上文承接自然,且与下一句联系紧密。
40.解析:选D 下文提到专家认为我们需要进行更多研究来找出绿色植被影响智力的原因,故可用D项(为什么绿色空间影响学习是一个新问题)总领该段。
