四川省彭州中学高考英语二模试卷分类汇编任务型阅读(含答案)
一、高中英语任务型阅读
1．任务型阅读How to not be a slave to technology
Schwartz, CEO of The Energy Project, shared four of his most important tools for applying technology more productively, and building a work life that supports—rather than wastes—your energy.
Build daily rituals (习惯).________ Build highly specific behaviors that you do at precise times over and over again until it becomes as automatic as brushing your teeth at night. The best way to prioritize (优先考虑) what's important to us and make sure we actually do the things we care about is to create highly specific habits.
Take a “first things first” approach to your mornings.________ Ninety-five percent of people have more energy early in the morning than they do as the day wears on, and they also have fewer distractions(干扰). So if that's the case, why wouldn't you do the most important thing when you have the most energy?
Use technologies selectively. If you expose yourself to different forms of technology continuously, they will pull you in the way a drug would, even when you know it is not serving you well. Keep technological temptations (诱惑) away when you find yourself getting too distracted—or as Schwartz puts it: “________”
________ Many of us live our lives in a gray zone—were not fully focused on work when were working, and during our leisure time, we're not fully relaxed. This leaves us feeling distracted. Schwartzs advice? ________ Applying less than your full focus doesn't just make you less productive; distraction keeps you from being fulfilled by and connected to your work. Distraction is the enemy to meaning.
A. Be intentional with your energy.
B. Do the most important thing first every day.
C. Taking breaks throughout the workday is a nice thought.
D. If you're trying to lose weight, don't have cup--cakes in the fridge.
E. We've crossed the line of being able to effectively manage all of the information coming at us.
F. When you're working, you're really working; and when you're relaxing, you're really relaxing.
G. The only way to ensure that things that aren't urgent but are important happen is to develop habits.
【答案】G；B；D；A；F
【解析】【分析】本文为说明文。

如何让我们不成为科技的奴隶，施瓦兹分享了他建议：养成良好的日常习惯，在精力旺盛时做重要的事，有选择地高效地使用技术，合理安排工作和休息。

（1）考查对上下文的理解及推理判断能力。

第1小题的所在的段的小标题为“Build daily rituals”。

本段主要讲述的是有一个好的日常习惯对我们来说重要的，也是优先考虑的。

分析选项，可知G项有许多词与本段复现，The only way to ensure that things that aren't urgent but are important happen is to develop habits.而G项（做重要的事情的唯一方法就是养成习
惯），故答案为G。

（2）考查对上下文的理解及推理判断能力。

本段说人一天中早晨的精力最旺盛，所以要在精力最好的时候做最重要的事。

分析选可知B项“Do the most important thing first every day”（每天先做最重要的事情），符合本段的内容，故答案选B。

（3）考查对上下文的理解及推理判断能力。

本段叙述的是有选择地使用技术，否则的话会对你不好。

当你知道它对你有害，却还会对它过分依赖。

当发现你被它分心了就要远离它。

而D项（如果你想减肥，不要在冰箱里放蛋糕）与最后一句是类比。

就是如果不利于你的计划，你就离它远点。

故答案为D。

（4）考查对上下文的理解及推理判断能力。

本小题空后的Many of us live our lives in a gray zone—were not fully focused on work when were working, and during our leisure time, we're not fully relaxed. 说许多人工作时没有完全集中精力工作，休闲暇时并没有完全放松后的。

这说明人们没有把精力控制好。

分析选项可知A项Be intentional with your energy(有意（控制）你的精力（投向）)题意，故答案选A。

（5）考查对上下文的理解及推理判断能力空后内容：注意力少一点也不会使你的工作效率降低；但分心会使你无法完成工作。

分心是最大的敌人。

结合本段前面说的：许多人工作时没有完全集中精力工作，休闲暇时并没有完全放松。

所以Schwartzs的建议应当是该工作时要好好工作，该休息时要好好休息。

分析选项F项（工作时认真工作，你放松时，你真的很放松）与之相符，故答案为F。

【点评】阅读理解七选五解题步骤
1）分析选项，串联主题：了解文章的主题、大意，会让解题的方向更明确。

2．Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.
(美洲虎) enclosure at Wildlife World Zoo, Arizona. The jaguar ripped into her arm. Bystanders pulled her away before the animal could injure her further. She's fine-so is the jaguar.
This isn't the first time a story of a person acting rudely to get close to a wild animal made headlines. Last year, a man jumped into a lion enclosure at a zoo for a close-up photo. ________ Multiple tourists in Yellowstone National Park have been attacked by bison (野牛) when they've gotten too close for a photo.
It's common sense not to get close to wild animals that can hurt you. It's why zoos have
barriers -sometimes multiple walls-to keep people separated from animals. Signs posted everywhere state the obvious warning. Keep your hands off the cage.
"Yet animals have become less real to us," says an environmentalist. We see exotic animals most frequently in managed settings like zoos. ________ People are trying to take advantage of their rarity to show off on social media and ignore their fierceness.
Media often normalize interaction with dangerous animals. Seeing a man like "Lion Whisperer" Kevin Richardson regularly play-fight with lions on TV, may send the message that these animals aren't so dangerous after all.
Social media are also perfectly positioned to contribute to the rise of animal selfies. Getting likes and comments provide instant satisfaction. Your self-esteem actually gets a temporary boost. To hold onto that feeling, people may go to more and more extremes to showcase the most exciting versions of themselves. It may not be enough to get a photo of a beautiful, dangerous animal from outside a cage. ________
People's careless approach can put the animal's safety at risk as well. Zoo animals often must be killed to protect the person who's entered their space. In fact, thrill-seekers actively endanger the lives of animals. ________ with the zoo environment, they take it for granted that animals are there for people, ignoring the fact that animals and humans are both equal existents in the nature.
【答案】 E；A；C；F
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了人类想当然地认为动物是为人类而存在的，忽略了动物和人类在自然界中是平等存在的。

（1）考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。

根据空前“Last year. a man jumped into a lion enclosure at a zoo for a close-up photo. ”和空后“Multiple tourists in Yellowstone National Park have been attacked by bison(野牛) when they've gotten too close for a photo.”所列举的两个例子可知，人们为了拍照靠近野生动物这种类似的事情是频繁发生的。

故选E。

（2）考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。

根据空前“Yet animal have become less real to us”然而，动物对我们来说已经变得不那么真实了，和空后“People are trying to take advantage of their rarity to show off on social media and ignore their fierceness.”人们利用它们的稀有性在社交媒体上炫耀，可知，在某种程度上，动物对我们来说成了工具。

故选A。

（3）考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。

根据空前“It may not be enough to get a photo of a beautiful, dangerous animal from outside a cage.”从笼子外面拍一张美丽、危险的动物照片已经不够了。

所以自然而然引出，通过拍一张自拍，你可以展示你是那次经历的一部分。

故选C。

（4）考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。

根据上下文可知，上文人们的所作所为以及空后“with the zoo environment, they take it for granted that animals are there for people, ignoring the fact that animals and humans are both equal existents in the nature.”动物为人而存在这种理所当然的想法，忽略了人类和动物在自然界是平等存在的想法，都证明了一些人正在不尊重动物。

故选F。

【点评】本题要求在理解细节信息的基础上，着重考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。

4．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。

选项中有两项为多余选项。

Every animal sleeps, but the reason for this has remained foggy. When lab rats are not allowed to sleep, they die within a month.________
One idea is that sleep helps us strengthen new memories. ________ We know that, while awake, fresh memories are recorded by reinforcing (加强) connections between brain cells, but the memory processes that take place while we sleep have been unclear.
Support is growing for a theory that sleep evolved so that connections between neurons (神经元) in the brain can be weakened overnight, making room for fresh memories to form the next day.________
Now we have the most direct evidence yet that he is right.________ The synapses in the mice taken at the end of a period of sleep were 18 per cent smaller than those taken before sleep, showing that the connections between neurons weaken while sleeping.
If Tononi's theory is right, it would explain why, when we miss a night's, we find it harder the next day to concentrate and learn new information — our brains may have smaller room for new experiences.
Their research also suggests how we may build lasting memories over time even though the synapses become thinner. The team discovered that some synapses seem to be protected and stayed the same size. ________ “You keep what matters,” Tononi says.
A. We should also try to sleep well the night before.
B. It's as if the brain is preserving its most important memories.
C. That's why students do better in tests if they get a chance to sleep after learning.
D. Similarly, when people go for a few days without sleeping, they get sick.
E. The processes take place to stop our brains becoming loaded with memories.
F. Tononi's team measured the size of these connections, or synapses, in the brains of 12 mice.
G. “Sleep is the price we pay for learning,” says Giulio Tononi, who developed the idea.
【答案】 D；C；G；F；B
【解析】【分析】这是一篇说明文。

主要介绍了睡觉对神经元的影响。

（1）根据上一句的When lab rats are not allowed to sleep, they die within a month.（实验室的小老鼠若不让它睡觉，它不到一个月就死了）可知，D项“同样，人若几天不睡觉就会生病。

”符合语境，故选D。

（2）结合上文提到睡眠帮助我们加强记忆，而C项中说“这就是为什么学生在学习之后有机会睡一觉的话，考试的成绩会更好。

”是对上一句的进一步说明举例，C项最切题，故选C。

（3）结合上文，上文Support is growing for a theory…提及的是一个理论，选项G中的“Giulio Tononi, who developed the idea.（朱莉奥是提出这个理论的人）”正好呼应，故选G。

（4）根据下文可知，老鼠在睡眠结束时，突触会变小18%，表明睡眠时神经元会变弱，F 项“托诺尼的团队测量了12只老鼠的大脑”与下文最呼应，故选F。

（5）根据上文讲述神经元虽然会变弱，但有些神经元会保持不变，再结合下文说，你记住了最重要的事，由此可知，B项“大脑似乎会保护最重要的记忆”与上下文的衔接最好，故选B。

Time for Americans to act on climate change
The climate crisis is worsening at a rate that is becoming harder and harder to ignore. For more than two decades, scientific reports have made it clear that global warming is real, that humans cause it and that the consequences will be disastrous.
The scientific community has become increasingly panicked over the past year. The latest assessment from the U.N. Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change painted a far more terrible picture than its previous analyses, and the long-awaited National Climate Assessment made clear that climate change represents a severe threat to human health as well as our economic security. Out of this panic came the treaty(条约)reached this past weekend by world leaders to keep the Paris climate agreement alive.
Yet many Americans still don't regard the threat as a key priority for our government, and support President Trump's decision to withdraw from the Paris treaty. Campaign contributions from fossil fuel companies have convinced elected officials to look the other way. A certain amount of despair has resulted in widespread apathy(漠然).
But there is another reason that has been discussed far less openly. While a growing number of people understand that climate change will have significant worldwide consequences, many Americans have an intuitive(直觉的)belief that their nation is more capable than others of adapting to a changed environment. Why? Because they have before.
This historical success, however, resulted from the federal government taking science seriously, and making investments to urge revolution and innovation.
But these innovations did not happen by themselves, or simply because of the United States' rich resources. They depended on consistent support from the leaders about the need to take action when faced with crises. This has been especially true in the environmental crisis.
President Bill Clinton had a shockingly modest record of advancing climate security, particularly given that his vice president, Al Gore, had been one of the most outspoken environmentalists in Congress. By far Clinton's biggest accomplishment was assigning Gore to participate іn thе Куоtо Рrоtoсоl negotiations. Сlіntоn сhоѕе, hоwеvеr, tо аvоіd whаt ѕurеlу wоuld have been a terrible fight in the Senate to gain approval of the treaty. While this effort probably would have failed, it would have signaled to the American people how seriously the Democratic Party took climate change.
Thus, the time has clearly arrived for progressive candidates to start campaigning on a platform built around the need for a sustainability revolution. Such a plan should include a carbon tax, well-funded clean energy research, evolved agricultural policies and smarter public transport. Given that Generation X and millennials(千禧一代)never bought into the fiction that the United States is immune to the dangers of global warming, the time is ripe to make climate security a crucial government responsibility. Only by doing so can we begin the long-overdue(拖延好久的)campaign to save the planet.

7．Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.
Shanghai Hengyuanxiang Drama Development Company and Netherlander Worldwide Entertainment signed a deal last November that would see Shimmer (《犹太人在上海》) become the first Chinese musical to have an open-ended run on Broadway in 2019. ________
Directed by Xu Jun, Shimmer is a musical in both English and Chinese. Shimmer, which tells a story about Jews who fled to Shanghai to escape Nazi persecution (迫害) during World War II, was first shown at the Shanghai Culture Square in 2015. ________ The musical's scheduled open-ended run in 2019 will be one of the events to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and the United States. With this play being shown on Broadway, the ties between Chinese people and Americans will be firmly strengthened. And through this drama, the audience can feel the charm of Chinese culture.
________ To deal with the problem, many production companies in Shanghai have pointed out that they should keep striving for improvement by creating more Chinese musicals and by creating more audiences. Currently, those who watch Western musicals in China are limited to a small group — people who have received a university education or have had overseas working experiences, white-collar and even gold-collar workers. There are only a handful of people who understand foreign languages and you have to find a way to motivate the public and get them into the theater.
________ There has been a handful of successful musical stories in Shanghai. The Chinese editions of Broadway musicals Cats and Mamma Mia, both of which had hundreds of shows across China, are among the top box office hits.
A. What do you think we can do to prevent Chinese musicals from declining in popularity?
B. At that time, the musical was chosen as the opening show for the 17th China Shanghai International Arts Festival.
C. The box office is expected to be twice higher than that of last year, reaching $1 million in total.
D. The small audience size hasn't discouraged local artists from producing outstanding works.
E. The deal is a milestone for Shimmer in its goal to further spread its influence to the world.
F. Despite the huge success of Shimmer, the team is facing a limited market.
【答案】 E；B；F；D
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍恒元翔戏剧发展公司将《犹太人在上海》推向国际舞台，尽管获得可巨大的成功，但很多制作公司自身发展,面临着观众少，市场狭窄的问题，与此同当地艺术家仍然在不断创作优秀作品。

（1）考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。

根据空前“Shanghai Hengyuanxiang Drama Development Company and Netherlander Worldwide Entertainment signed a deal last November that would see Shimmer (《犹太人在上海》) become the first Chinese musical to have an open-ended run on Broadway in 2019.”可知，上海恒元翔戏剧发展公司和尼德兰全球娱乐公司去年11月签署了一项协议，将使《犹太人在上海》成为中国第一部在2019年在百老汇公开上映的音乐剧。

所以小题1要说明这项协议给《犹太人在上海》带来的影响和意义。

E. The deal is a milestone for Shimmer in its goal to further spread its influence to the world.“该协议是《犹太人在上海》进一步将其影响力扩大到世界的目标的一个里程碑”符合题意。

故选E。

（2）考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。

根据空后“The musical's scheduled open-ended run in 2019 will be one of the events to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and United States”可知，这部音乐剧定于2019年公开上映，将是庆祝中美建交40周年的活动之一。

《犹太人在上海》不是第一次上映，所以判断出小题2要说明它在2015年因为什么而上映的。

B. At that time, the musical was chosen as the opening show for the 17th China Shanghai International Arts Festival.“当时，这部音乐剧被选为第十七届中国上海国际艺术节的开幕式上表演。

”符合题意。

故选B。

（3）考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。

由第三段的内容可知，第三段主要介绍了上海的许多制作公司通过创作更多的中国音乐剧和吸引更多的观众来不断努力改进自己的作品，以及观众群体的局限性。

这都说明尽管《犹太人在上海》取得了巨大的成功，但团队仍面临着有限的市场。

所以判断出小题3是本段的标题。

F. Despite the huge success of Shimmer, the team is facing a limited market.“尽管《犹太人在上海》取得了巨大的成功，但团队仍面临着有限的市场”为本段的标题。

故选F。

（4）考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。

根据空后“there has been a handful of successful musical stories in Shanghai. The Chinese editions of Broadway musicals Cats and Mamma Mia, both of which had hundreds of shows across China, are among the top box office hits. ”可知上海有一些成功的音乐故事。

百老汇音乐剧《猫》和《妈妈咪呀》的中国版在中国各地都有数百场演出，都是票房冠军。

所以这里具体列举了很多百老汇音乐剧的中国版都取得了不错的票房，意在说明观众人数少并没有妨碍当地艺术家创作优秀作品。

所以此处要起到总说的作用，然后在进行解释说明。

D. The small audience size hasn't。
