红桥区2021届高考英语完形填空和阅理暑假选练〔11〕
阅读以下四篇短文，从每一小题后所给的A,B,C或者D四个选项里面，选出最正确选项。

It's interesting to see how people make use of the time they spend on public transport in Indian cities like Delhi and Mumbai.
In crowded buses and trains people manage to take a short nap and some even reach the snoring stage.Or they spread out a newspaper over multiple knees and arms to read about the latest sport results or political crisis.
Then there are the experienced travellers who have been playing cards with the same group over the last decade or so.They even have their specific seats so well－worn that you can make out the shape of their backsides.
There is no doubt about it.Travelling by public transport is being in the thick of the seasons of life－a sweaty life in summer where people，blissfully unaware of the rivers of sweat running down their brows and inside their clothes.At the first smell of a perfumed man or woman boarding the stuffy bus or train，most people feel they are reborn.
During the rains you can't avoid getting wet or muddied.The windows，almost always，are not a perfect fit and if you're not drenched by a sudden，heavy rain shower then you are bound to catch a jet spray of muddy water caused by a fellow motorist driving fast through a puddle.
The rains are a perfect time for people to switch their old umbrellas for new ones.Since there are so many that look alike，it's impossible to tell whose is whose. Winter is the time when it feels good－or at least warm—to be part of a crowd.It is amazing how much the collective breaths of a hundred or so people can raise the freezing temperature inside.Looking at the masses dressed in their bright red pullovers or green coats，it's fun to imagine what faces lie beneath their dark woolen hats.
The cold winter passes，making way for spring.It is impossible not to see every little flower by the wayside blooming proudly.And the warm sun manages to transmit some of their pleasantness to the inside of a bus or train.
Now，wouldn't it be perfect if we had public transport worth the name in all our cities?

【解析】本文是夹叙夹议文。

为了使自己的大学申请表更有吸引力，作者带病学习、工作。

后来，作者对这种舍本逐末的做法做出了自我反。

“促使某人做某事〞，符合语境。

2．B 前文school与后文life之间存在递进关系，应选用even。

3．A 由下文可知，作者认为这种想法不见得真的如此。

true意为“符合事实，是真的而不是假的或者捏造的〞，real意为“人或者事物真实存在，而不是想象的或者虚构的〞。

4．B 语境：我正要分开教室，恰在此时突然感觉像是背部抽筋了。

when是并列连词，连接前后两个句子，表示“恰在此时(突然)〞，因此选B。

5．C 几天不吃饭体重当然下降。

6．A hang在此表示衣服宽大、松弛的样子。

7．D 睡得少会感觉眼皮很重，故用heavy。

8．B drop class意为“旷课〞，符合语境。

9．A 作者固执地认为：生活中的磨难要么把人击倒，要么使人更坚强。

10．B 作者如此卖力地工作是为了让大学申请表看起来更吸引人。

do good to意为“对……有利〞。

afford意为“花得起(钱)，拿得出
(时间是)〞。

12．A the amount of...意为“……的数量〞，这里指“工作的量(大)〞，不可数，因此不能用number。

13．B 申请表再有吸引力又有什么用呢？impressive 意为“有吸引力的〞，与上文“does good〞前后照应。

14．C 不能享受结果，做这些工作又有什么意义呢？point 意为“意义，道理〞；reason 意为“原因〞；idea 意为“想法〞；tip意为“尖端，建议〞。

15．B 关注将来的人，应担忧(关注)如今(的安康)。

阅读理解。

Honesty，my mum always used to tell me，is the best policy.Of course，this didn't include her when she told me that if I didn't eat all my vegetables Father Christmas would find out and wouldn't give me any presents.
But when it comes to medicine，I had assumed it was important to always be honest with my patients.After all，the doctor­patient relationship is based on trust，and therefore honesty is essential. Or so I thought.
I had just started working in geriatrics (老年病科)．Mr.McMahon was brought in when his belly was found very swollen.I took a medical history from his daughter who'd accompanied him in the ambulance.She'd been his main carer for years.I stood looking at him as she gave a deta iled history.“Has he lost any weight recently？〞 I asked，“Well，it's funny you should mention that，but yes，〞 she said slowly.There was silence for a few moments.“Why? What are you worried about？〞 she asked，I hesitated.She was obviously very involved in his care and it was only fair that I told her the truth.“Well，we need to prove it's not cancer.〞 I said and talked briefly about some of the tests I was going to order.
Half an hour later，a nurse called me: “Mr.McMahon's daughter broke down—she said you told her he had cancer.〞 My heart sank.By the time I arrived at the ward，my consultant was already there，explaining that we still had to run lots of tests and that it was by no means confirmed that he had cancer.I stood silently at the end of the bed.My consultant was obviously angry with me and as we left Mr.McMahon，she turned to me.“Why on earth did you do that？〞 she asked in disbelief.I looked at her and bit my lip.“She asked me what I was worried about and I told her.〞 I said，
hanging_my_head.“And give her more to worry about？〞replied my consultant.“You don't say the word ‘cancer’ until it's confirmed.Even if you suspect it，think very carefully before you tell people.〞
As it turned out，it wasn't cancer.But I did learn that when someone is stressed and worried about their loved one they're sometimes selective in what they hear—and as a doctor it's important to be mindful of this.In being truthful，I'd made the situation worse.
本来在一位医生的心目中，老实是第一位的；而且在工作中也是奉行老实本分的处世原那么。

可是因为一次说了不够确切的实话，却让一位病人受到了打击，这件事让这位医生得出了一个结论：老实有时候也会出错。

1．The purpose of the first two paragraphs is to show that the author ________. A．misunderstood the doctor­patient relationship
B．was anxious to receive Christmas gifts
C．regarded honesty as the best policy
D．had an unhealthy eating habit
答案：C。

作者意图题。

从两个段落的第一句话，字里行间“the best〞“important〞都透露出作者对于honesty的看法。

2．The author's consultant was angry with him because ________.
A．he told the daughter what he suspected
B．he delayed running the necessary tests
C．he failed to confirm the patient's disease
D．he forgot what the consultant had advised
答案：A。

细节判断题。

第四段的开头已经说明因为我的一番话，以及本段落的最后一句话也可以读出正是因为我的不假思索，让病人受到了打击，故consultant对我不满与气愤，应选A。

3．The author hung his head (the underlined part in Para.4) because he was feeling ________.
A．guilty B．hurt
C．disappointed D．helpless
答案：A。

细节判断题。

guilty意为：罪过感，惭愧，与划线局部“耷拉了脑袋〞在语境上非常符合。

4．What lesson has the author learnt from his experience?
A．Learning from parents is necessary.
B．Jumping to a conclusion is dangerous.
C．Telling the truth may not always be the best solution.
D．Selecting pleasant words may not be the perfect policy.
答案：C。

理解判断题。

文章的最后一句话，正说明了作者的体会与结论：有时候，老实不受欢送。

应选C。
