高中英语二轮复习专题限时训练四十说明文型阅读填空配作业一解析试题
专题限时训练(四十) [说明文型阅读填空(一)](限时：25分钟)(一)Food is life; it gives us the nourishment (营养) we need to stay alive and be healthy. 1.________ Brian Wansink，a professor at the University of Illinois，says we also eat certain foods because they make us feel good，and remind us of happy memories. Wansink calls this kind of food comfort food. For some people，ice cream is a comfort food. For others，a bowl of noodles soup makes them feel good.2．________ Professor Wansink believes that we connect food with important times，feelings，and people in our lives. “When I was a child，my mother made a delicious soup; I loved it. 3.________ And it helps me feel better，〞 says one of Wansink’s coworkers.Do men and women choose different comfort foods? Wansin k’s research at the University of Illinois says “yes〞. In his study，the favorite comfort food for both men and women was ice cream. After this，men usually preferred hot，savory (香的) foods like soup or noodles. 4.________ Men and women like to eat comfort foods when they are happy，but women eat these foods more when they are sad or worried.5．________ About 40 percent of the comfort foods in Wansink’s study were healthy main dishes or soups and vegetables. It shows，says Wansink，that a comfort food can taste good and be good for you.A．Not all comfort food is junk food.B．Where can we buy this sort of food?C．Sweet foods are also their preference.D．How does a food become a comfort food?E. Usually，we eat because we are hungry or need energy.F. Women like sweet things such as chocolate and cookies.G. Now，I often have this kind of food when I am tired or worried.(二)What is your favourite colour? Do you like yellow，orange，red? 1.________Do you prefer grey and blue? Then you are probably quiet，shy，and you would rather follow than lead. You tend to be a pessimist. At least，this is what psychologists tell us，and they should know，because they have been seriously studying the meaning of colour preference，as well as the effect that colours have on human beings.2.________If you happen to love brown，you did so，as soon as you opened your eyes，or at least as soon as you could see clearly.3．________A yellow room makes most people feel more cheerful and more relaxed than a dark green one; and a red dress brings warmth and cheer to the saddest winter day. 4.________ A black bridge over the Thames River，near London，used to be the scene of more suicides(自杀) than any other bridge in the area—until it was repainted green. The number of suicide attempts immediately fell sharply. Perhaps it would have fallen even more if the bridge had been done in pink or baby blue.5．________It is an established fact that factory workers work better，harder，and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than blackor grey.A．On the other hand，black is depressing.B．They tell us，among other facts，that we do not choose our favourite colouras grow up—we are born with our preference.C．The rooms are painted in different colours as you like.D．If you do，you must be an optimist，a leader，an active person who enjoyslife，people and excitement.E. Light and bright colours make people not only happier but more active.F. Life is like a picture or a poem，full of different colours.G. Colours do influence our moods—there is no doubt about it.(三)Peer pressurePeer pressure is just part of the challenges in life.1.________ If you needfurther guidance, this article might help you.It provides three effective tips todeal with it:Be with friends who respect your beliefs.You can go out with people who accept and respect the things you believe in andthose who you know you can share your interests with.It is all right to be choosywith friends because you just want what is best for them and you. 2.________ You are just exhibiting what you know is right and good for both sides.Your friendswill understand you for that.They can drag you away from discrimination and you canbe confident that they will not leave you for your stand in life.3．________When you are driven by so many peer pressures, you can always stay away from them. You can actually decide not to be one of them.When you have decided on it, learn to be firm with your decision.4.________ They should know that you cannot be forced to do certain things because you are strong and firm with what you believe in.Learn how to say no.Learning to say no is one big factor to deal with some pressures from all of your friends.When you are convinced to do something you know that can only destroy you or ruin you, learn to say no.5.________ You cannot just say yes to anything.You have a functional mind and you know what is best for you.So learn to say no even if saying no means losing your friends.A．Have a firm decision.B．Don't blame others.C．This does not mean you are b eing selfish or you are being selfcentered.D．You should know how to deal with it.E．You can always deal with it positively.F．This can make them believe that you cannot just be driven by any other thing.G．Just be straightforward and say it without hesitations.(四)TUVALU, a tiny country in the Pacific Ocean, has asked for help as it fears itwill be swallowed up by the sea. Storms and huge waves are a constant threat and none of Tuvalu's nine little islands is more than five meters above sea level. Salt water is already entering the country's drinking water supply, as well as damaging plants that produce fruits and vegetables. 1.________.2．________. Venice, a historic city in Italy best known for its canals, has sunk about 24cm over the past 100 years. Experts say that it will have sunk another 20—50cm by 2050.A century ago, St. Mark's Square, the lowest point in the city, flooded about nine times a year. Nowadays, it happens more than 100 times. While Venice is slowly sinking into the mud on which it stands, Tuvalu's rising sea level is caused by global warming.The average global temperature has increased by almost 0.5 centigrade degrees over the past century; scientists expect it to rise by extra 1—3 degrees over the next 100 years.Warmer weather makes glaciers melt, adding more water to the ocean. The warmer temperatures also make water expand, so it takes up more space, causing the sea level to rise. The sea level has risen about 10—25 cm in the last 100 years.3．________. Through burning coal, oil and gas, people have been increasing the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, such as CO2. This adds to the power of the greenhouse effect, making the planet even warmer.Many scientists believe that, if the warming is not stopped, there will be huge climate changes. 4.________.5．________， the sea will swallow up millions of homes and the world will beflooded with “climate refugees〞 looking for somewhere to live.A. The main cause of global warming is human pollutionB．Should this come trueC．Without urgent help, the country's days are numberedD．But Tuvalu is not the first place to face sinking into the sea E．The sea level could rise by one meter this centuryF．People face a lot of pollutionG．Much has been done about our planet专题限时训练(四十)(一)1.

For them, there’s something highly exciting about 1 someone else’s glance and making oneself unable to be seen.However, we all witness that preschool children are remarkably 2 at hiding. They often cover only their eyes with their hands, leaving the rest of their bodies exposed.For a long time, this ineffective hiding method was 3 as evidence that children are hopelessly “egocentric”(自我中心的) creatures. But our 4 research results in child developmental psychology 5 that idea.We brought young children aged 2-4 into our Minds in Development Lab at USC.Each child sat down with an adult who covered her own eyes or 6. We then asked the child if she could see or hear the adult. Surprisingly, children replied that they couldn’t. The same7 happened when the adult covered her own mouth: 8 children said that they couldn’t9 to her.A number of 10 ruled out that the children misunderstood what they were being asked. The results were clear: Our young subjects 11 the questions and knew exactly what was asked of them. Their 12 to the questions reflected their true 13 that “I can see you only if you can see me, too.” They simply insist on mutual(相互的) recognition and regard.

高考英语二轮复习 限时专题训练 说明文型阅读简答
语鹅市安置阳光实验学校专题限时训练(三十六) [说明文型阅读简答(一)](限时：每篇10分钟)AThe earthquake and tsunami have caused huge human and material losses in Japan, and the threat of unclear radiation has added to people’s sadness. Some of the factories will have to move outside the country to ensure its business.Owing to the level of the damage to Japanese factories and infrastructure, it will be weeks or even months before the country’s supply chain returns to normal and its manufacturing level gets back to its previous level. While most factories will be running as usual in the next few months, it is likely that some of the older and less efficient ones will be shut down. It will thus be cheaper and easier to use manufacturing bases in China and other lowc ost countries than to rebuild the factories in Japan.One example of the changes in Japanese companies’ strategy is that less than half of the automobile manufacturing capacity of Toyota, Nissan, and Honda is in Japan. With the triple disasters affecting in Japan, its automobile companies are expected to keep increasing manufacturing outside the country, and China looks like an appropriate destination for that.A similar strategy applies to consumer products such as TV sets, music players and mobile handsets. Companies such as Sony have already moved much of their manufacturing to other countries, and this trend will continue. The production of many semiconductor products will steadily move outside Japan, too with perhaps the establishment of strategic relationships with other countries.Is this trend bad for Japan? No, if new industries are built to take advantage of the opportunities in the global market to ensure a better future.1．What has contributed to the Japan’s disaster? (No more than 9 words)________________________________________________________________ ________2．List two different kinds of products that have already moved their factories outside Japan.(No more than 7 words)________________________________________________________________ ________3．Why won’t many Japanese factories plan to rebuild but turn to foreign bases after the disaster？(No more than 8 words) Sylvan N. Goldman invented the shopping cart in 1937. At that time he was in theBut Goldman was disappointed. Most shoppers gave the carts a long look, but hardly anybody would give them a try.After a while, Goldman decided to ask customers why they weren’t using his carts. “Don’t you think this arm is strong enough to carry a shopping basket？” one shopper replied.But Goldman wa sn’t beaten yet. He knew his carts would be a great success if only he could persuade people to give them a try. To this end, Goldman hired a group of people to push carts around his market and pretend they were shopping! Seeing this, the real customers gradually began copying the phony(假冒的)customers.As Goldman had hoped, the carts were soon attracting larger and larger numbers of customers to his market. But not only did more people come—those who came bought more. With larger, easiertohandle baskets, customers unconsciously bought a greater number of items than before.Today’s shopping carts are five times larger than Goldman’s original model. Perhaps that’s one reason why Americans today spend more than five times as much money on food each year as they did before 1937—before the coming of the shopping cart.5. What do the underlined words “chromeplated contraptions” in Paragraph 1 refer to ? (No more than 3 words)________________________________________________________________ ________6. What was the purpose of Goldman’s invention? (No more than 8 words)________________________________________________________________ ________7. Why was Goldman disappointed at first? (No more than 6 words)________________________________________________________________ ________8. Why did Goldman hire people to push carts around his market? (No more than 10 words)________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ ________CWatching online open classes of US top universities has become necessary for many young Chinese who find it a shortcut to make their life more meaningful, in addition to learning knowledge and language.Guo Lei, a native of Guangzhou, has become addicted to various open courses after she watched the online video of “Justice: What’s the right thing to do.” The video clip was taken during an open class taught by Michael Sandel, professor of philosophy at Harvard University.Sandel set up a situation in which a highspeed train with a technical problem is running towards five people who are working on the current track, while there is only one worker on the adjacent (相邻的) track. He inspired students to discuss what the driver should do—to change the direction for five lives ——which apparently will kill the other—or to do nothing and allow five people to die.Guo said she was immediately attracted by the topic and the discussion of the Harvard students about morality and justice. She even introduced the case to her colleagues for discussion, since Sandel did not give an answer, unlike most Chinese teachers she knew before.The inspiring and lively teaching style of American professors refreshed Guo’s impression about the traditional scoreoriented Chinese educational system and prompted more Chinese to frequently search and watch open class resources of American top colleges, including Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and University of California Berkeley.On China’s social networking websites, such as , and , citizens have spontaneously formed many study groups to share video resources and exchange opinions. Volunteers have added English or Chinese subtitles onto the videos to help more Chinese enjoy the videos without language difficulties.“The popularity of American open classes reflects the spirit of sharing，” said Yu Xinke, vice chancellor with the Continuous Education School of South China University of Technology.9.

真题探究——解读命题之道(2022·全国乙卷)Young children across the globe enjoy playing games of hide and seek. For them, there's something highly exciting about 41 someone else's glance and making oneself unable to be seen.However, we all witness that preschool children are remarkably 42 at hiding. They often cover only their eyes with their hands, leaving the rest of their bodies 43 ．For a long time, this ineffective hiding method was 44 as evidence that children are hopelessly “egocentric” (自我中心的) creatures. But our 45 research results in child developmental psychology 46 that idea.We brought young children aged 2－4 into our Minds in Development Lab at USC．Each 47 sat down with an adult who covered her own eyes or 48 . We then asked the child if she could 49 or hear the adult. Surprisingly, children replied that they couldn't. The same 50 happened when the adult covered her own mouth: 51 children said that they couldn't 52 to her.A number of 53 ruled out that the children misunderstood what they were being asked. The results were clear: Our young subjects 54 the questions and knew 55 what was asked of them. Their 56 to the questions reflected their true57 that “I can see you only if you can see me, too.” They simply 58 mutual (相互的) recognition and regard. Our 59 suggest when a child “hides” by putting a blanket over her head, it is not a result of egocentrism. In fact, children consider this method 60 when others use it.【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文。

高考英语二轮复习 专题限时训练(三十六)说明文型阅读简答配套作业(一)(解析版,湖南省专用)
专题限时训练(三十六) [说明文型阅读简答(一)](限时：25分钟)(一)Americans consider baseball as an American sport.They often refer to something being “as American as baseball and apple pie”．But is baseball really an American sport? And what are the origins of baseball anyway?The American game of baseball more than likely came from several European ball games.Russia had an early form of baseball and so did Germany and Romania.People in England played a game called “stool(凳子) ball”. In this game, the pitcher (投手) tried to hit a stool or chair with a ball, and the batter (击球手) used a stick to keep the ball away.But American baseball was most likely based on another English game, which is called “rounders”．Players use a soft ball rather than a hard ball while playing rounders.So when was the first real game of “baseball” played? It seems that it took place in the 1840s.The father of baseball was Alexander Cartwright, who organized a baseball club in New York.Cartwright developed 20 rules that distinguished baseball from previous ball games.In 1858, the first organized baseball league—the National Association of Baseball Players—was formed.This league began charging fans to watch the games.However, the players were all amateurs and did not get paid.In 1869, the Cincinnati Red Stockings began to pay their players.Since they could hire the best players, Cincinnati won 57 games and lost none in their first season.As a result, other teams decided to hire players too.By 1871, the National Association was the first professional baseball league.Today baseball is liked very much in America.Top professional baseball players earn millions of dollars each year.There are two professional leagues —the National League and the American League.The best teams from these two leagues compete for the baseball championship every year.1．What do Americans think of baseball? (No more than 3 words)________________________________________________________________________ 2．Where did the American baseball most probably come from? (No more than 5 words) ________________________________________________________________________ 3．Why was Alexander Cartwright called “the father of baseball”？ (No more than 16 words)________________________________________________________________________ 4．What does the passage mainly talk about? (No more than 5 words)________________________________________________________________________(二)It becomes important for the body to receive adequate amount of proteins as our body neither produces nor stores them.And this can be ensured only when the body can digest proteins properly.Taking sugars into consideration, their digestion startsright from the time they are in the mouth.However, this is not the case with proteins.Their digestion begins in the stomach with the help of hydrochloric acid(盐酸)．The proteins are digested to release amino acids(氨基酸), but they do not get digested easily.Fortunately, there are some things you can do to improve your protein digestibility.For example, you can eat small, frequent meals to improve your protein digestibility.Most of us stick to the habit of taking three heavy meals a day.As mentioned above, proteins aren't easy to digest; usually, it may take 3 hours or more for complete digestion.So eat on a frequent basis to create a suitable environment for protein absorption.Also try eating a meal which is made up of meat and vegetables.When it comes to digestion of protein, drinking water is also ually, it is recommended to drink 8 glasses of water a day.Also, it is advisable to drink water half an hour before and an hour after the meal.Drinking during the meal should be avoided as this dilutes(稀释) the gastric(胃的) juices which are required for digestion.Protein digestibility can also be improved by combining it with vegetables.This would keep the body from getting overloaded with protein thus, helping the tissues to work less hard in taking in the protein.However, remember that protein alone isn't sufficient, and it has to be included in the diet with other nutrients.In other words, a balanced diet is the key to healthy living.1．How can we create a suitable environment for protein absorption? (No more than 4 words)________________________________________________________________________ 2．According to the last paragraph, what should we do for healthy living？(No more than 12 words)________________________________________________________________________ 3．Why shouldn't you drink during the meal？(No more than 10 words)________________________________________________________________________ 4．What is the passage mainly about? (No more than 6 words)________________________________________________________________________(三)There are special moments which require you to congratulate the individual concerned.You can do different things to express your happiness at their achievements.But remember that planning a creative way to congratulate someone depends upon how well you know him/her, and what his/her achievements mean to you.So, how can you say congratulations creatively? You can let balloons say it all for you.Just blow 15 balloons and paint them individually with the letters C O N G R A T U L A T I O N S respectively.Ask 15 different persons to hold it with the letters in front in order and capture the surprised expression on your loved one's face.If you can't find 15 persons to hold those balloons for you, tie them on to something so that the letters on the balloons are visible.If you live apart from the person and wish to congratulate him/her, nothing can get more special than writing down a few congratulatory lines.It's significant thatyou select words that convey how happy you're for his/her achievements and tell him/her how proud you're about his/her success.Saying congratulations on air is also a creative way of putting your message across.There are various radio shows that allow prerecorded greetings on air.So you can have your congratulations broadcast on the radio to catch the reaction of the person concerned.Gifts were, are, and always will be, a hit when it comes to congratulating people.If you intend to buy a gift for the person yourself, make sure you choose a sensible gift by taking his/her preference into consideration.The safest way is to gift a certificate and let him/her shop by himself/herself.Using any of these ideas and putting efforts into a simple wish will show how much that person's success means to you.1．What should you consider when you are wondering how to congratulate a man？(No more than 13 words)________________________________________________________________________ 2．What kind of words should you select if you write congratulatory lines for a man? (No more than 14 words)________________________________________________________________________ 3．How should you choose a sensible gift for a woman? (No more than 5 words) ________________________________________________________________________ 4．What is the passage mainly about？(No more than 6 words)________________________________________________________________________专题限时训练(三十六)(一)1．An Amercian sport./Very important. 根据第一段Americans consider baseball as an American sport.They often refer to something being “as American as baseball and apple pie”．可判断作答。

【参考范文】Should Our Parents Accompany Us in Studying at School?In recent years，many parents choose to accompany their children in studying，which has aroused a wide concern.These parents are willing to leave their hometown，even quit their jobs to follow their children into the campus.Most of them rent an apartment nearby so as to take good care of their children.Parents consider it necessary to offer a better living condition to the kids.Meanwhile，it can allow them to keep track of the kids' academic performance.Nevertheless，what they've ignored is that it will get their kids into the habit of being dependent.Thus，they will never develop the ability of self-control in the future.Trust leads to independence.So it seems to me that parents should create room for children's growth and study in order to ensure their overall development.【参考范文】Dear Lucy，I'm glad to receive your letter. In your letter，you mentioned that we Chinese prefer red but you are at a loss about when to use it.Here，I will tell you something about it.Yes，we do like red，because red stands for happiness and good fortune in our culture.Therefore，you can see people wear red clothes and hang red lanterns during the Spring Festival，when senior citizens even give their grandchildren some lucky money in red envelopes.Besides，young couples also dress red on their traditional weddings.However，be sure to avoid wearing red clothes during some sad events，such as attending funerals and visiting patients.If you do so，you are considered to be very rude.I hope my explanations will be of help to you.Best wishes!Yours，Li Hua。

Why people take two minutes going up the stairs if more than 10 minutes is ____23____ to make it worthwhile for health?But now a study suggests something else: go ahead, take the stairs! Every minute____24____ toward reaching the 150-minute goal, whether it’s part of a 10-minute period of activity or not. The purpose of the study conducted at the University of Utah was to see if moderate to vigorous physical activity in less than 10-minute episodes was ____25____ to weight outcomes. The study, published in the American Journal of Health Promotion, found that each minute spent ____26____ in some kind of moderate to vigorous physical activity — be it walking the dog, vacuuming, or taking the stairs — was associated with lower BMI and lower weight.“The idea here is, you can do a minute at a time and that’s not a problem,” Jessie Fan, lead author of the new paper and a family and consumer studies professor at the University of Utah, told Today.For the women who participated in the study, each minute spent in higher-intensity activity was associated with a 0.7 drop in body mass index (BMI). For a 5'4" woman, that means a____27____ of nearly half a pound, which may not sound like much, but that’s just for one minute.Little by little, they add up.The authors concluded that the current 10-minute ____28____ guideline was based on health benefits other than weight outcomes and that their findings showed that for weight gain____29____, accumulated higher-intensity physical activity bouts of less than 10 minutes are quite ____30____, supporting the message that “every minute counts.”When it comes to your brain, it also rings true.

But a research team claim to have made progress in ___36___ the simplest kind of memory a mollusk (软体动物) might form, and, with a swift injection, managed to ___37___ one sea snail’s memory to another.The kinds of memories that start a defensive reaction in the snails are encoded not in the___38___between brain cells, but in RNA molecules (分子), according to David Glanzman, a biologist at UCLA．To ___39___ the idea, Glanzman implanted wires into the tails of California sea hares and gave them a series of electric shocks. The procedure made the animals so ___40___ that when they were touched, they contracted parts of their bodies intensely. Glanzman compares the reaction to being nervous after an earthquake: the memory of the event causes a(n) ___41___ response to any loud noise. After sensitizing the sea snails, Glanzman took RNA out from them and ___42___ it into new sea snails to see what would happen. He then found the new ones are___43___ sensitized, suggesting the “memory” of the electrical shocks had been transplanted. According to Glanzman and his research team, the experiment shows that ___44___ parts of the memory trace are held in RNA, rather than in the connectivity of brain cells.However, the work has not yet found widespread ____45____. “Further work needs to be carried out to determine whether these phenomena are obvious and what is the ____46____ of such phenomena,” said Prof Vann at Cardiff University. “While a sea snail is a fantastic model, we must be very ____47____ in drawing comparisons to human memory processes, which are much more complex.”Tomás Ryan at Trinity College Dublin, is ____48____. “This work takes us down an interesting road, but I have doubt about it and I don’t think they’ve transplanted a memory,” he said. “This work tells me that maybe the most basic behavioral responses involve some kind of change in the animal.”____49____, Ryan added that such creative thinking about memory was in great need: “In a field full of acceptance but lacking ____50____, we need as many new ideas as possible.”36．A．deleting B．disturbing C．refreshing D．understanding 37．A．transfer B．adjust C．compare D．relate 38．A．connections B．conflicts C．secrets D．distances 39．A．promote B．test C．eliminate D．impose 40．A．sensitive B．adaptable C．strong D．relaxed41．A．necessary B．peaceful C．unconscious D．impossible 42．A．plunged B．invested C．translated D．injected 43．A．crazily B．dangerously C．scarcely D．equally 44．A．optional B．essential C．memorial D．virtual 45．A．association B．recognition C．innovation D．publication 46．A．depth B．application C．basis D．description 47．A．imaginative B．careful C．ambitious D．speedy 48．A．supported B．persuaded C．unappreciated D．unconvinced 49．A．Nevertheless B．Eventually C．For example D．As a result 50．A．expression B．likelihood C．suspicion D．disturbance Anyone could be in his or her unfavorable situations, whatever their ages and social status. Adults are often ___51___ asking for help. It’s an act that can make people feel ___52___. The moment you ask for directions, after all，you reveal that you may be lost. Seeking someone’s assistance can make you feel like you are broadcasting your ___53___. New research suggests young children don’t seek ___54___ in school, even when they need it, for the same reason.To learn more about how children think about looking for help, we asked 576 children, aged four to nine, to predict the ___55___ of two kids in a story. One of the characters genuinely wanted to be smart, and the other merely wanted to seem smart to others.Children thought that the kid who wanted to seem smart would be ___56___ to ask for assistance. They could still conceive of (想象) situations in which the kid who wanted to seem smart would seek help: when assistance could be sought ___57___ (on a computer rather than in person), children thought both characters were equally likely to ask for it.We also found that they recognize several more behaviors that might make a child appear less clever in front of fellow kids, such as ___58___ failure or modestly downplaying successes. Children are therefore strongly aware of several ways in which a person's actions might make them appear less ___59___ in the eyes of others.However, a number of ___60___ can be found to help children. Our first ___61___ may be to motivate seeking help by emphasizing its educational benefits. But ___62___ barriers likely require reputation-based solutions. For example, instructors could create activities in which each student becomes an “expert” on a different topic, and then children must ask one another for helpto master all of the material. If seeking help is understood as a(n) ___63___ classroom activity, kids may be less likely to think of it as indicativ e (表明) of one’s ability.Seeking help could even be framed as ___64___ desirable. After all, asking for help often benefits not just the help seeker but also others listening in who have ___65___ questions or struggles. 51．A．delighted with B．ready for C．serious about D．embarrassed about 52．A．impersonal B．sensitive C．helpless D．desperate 53．A．incapability B．enthusiasm C．generosity D．friendliness 54．A．protection B．individuality C．assistance D．personality 55．A．behavior B．intelligence C．success D．capability 56．A．ready B．unlikely C．comfortable D．desperate 57．A．separately B．moderately C．purposefully D．privately 58．A．admitting B．neglecting C．avoiding D．underestimating 59．A．friendly B．smart C．independent D．reliable 60．A．theories B．reasons C．solutions D．researches 61．A．mission B．advice C．instinct D．barrier 62．A．instructive B．decisive C．intellectual D．reputational 63．A．ordinary B．vivid C．achievable D．virtual 64．A．personally B．mentally C．potentially D．socially 65．A．dominant B．similar C．complex D．original Against all our wishes, advertising works, which is why, even in hard economic times, Madison Avenue is a $34-billion-a-year business. And if Martin Lindstrom, a marketing consultant is correct, trying to ___66___ the advertisement is about to get especially hard.83% of all forms of advertising principally ___67___ only one of our senses: sight. Hearing, however, can be just as powerful, though advertisers have taken only limited advantage of it. Historically, ads have relied on slogans(广告语)to catch our ear, ___68___ everyday sounds — a steak sizzling(发嘶嘶声), a baby laughing and other sounds we can't help paying attention to. Weave these everyday sounds into an ad campaign and we customers may be ___69___ to resist them.According to Lindstrom, the everyday sound that is most impressive, both in terms of interest and ___70___ feelings, is a baby laughing. The other high-ranking sounds are also powerful —the sound of a car engine or a soda being poured.In all of these cases, it doesn’t need an experienced advertisement designer to invent the sounds, associate them with meanings and then play them over and over until the subjects___71___ them. Rather, the everyday sounds already have meanings and thus can cause a kind of ___72___ : hunger, thirst or happy expectation.Some TV ads have already given viewers close-up shots of meat with sizzling sounds. And retailers are ___73___ . Lindstrom is now consulting with clients, intending to pipe the sound of filtering coffee or fizzing soda into the drink department or that of a baby laughing sound into the baby-food section.Of course, this doesn’t mean that advertisers can just press the audio button ___74___ and consumers will come eagerly. Indeed, sometimes customers flee. In the early years of cell-phone use, the ringtone (铃音) of a famous cell phone brand was recognized by many people in the U.K., but soon it became widely ____75____ . That, Lindstrom says, was partly because so few users observed cell-phone manners and ____76____ accidents kept happening in places like movie theaters. The computer start-up sound has taken on the similarly negative ____77____ , because people so often hear it when they’re restarting the computer after it ____78____ . In these cases, manufacturers themselves may as well revise the bothersome sound or ____79____ it entirely. Lindstrom's experiment also shows that people respond to a sound better when it’s ____80____ . If nothing else, smart marketers may at least keep the volume low.66．A．tune out B．admit to C．depend on D．take over 67．A．evaluate B．spoil C．engage D．portray 68．A．classifying B．ignoring C．challenging D．representing 69．A．sensible B．selfish C．powerless D．pleasant 70．A．hollow B．positive C．violent D．foreign 71．A．infer B．reject C．internalize D．perform 72．A．consumption B．reaction C．favor D．spread 73．A．following suit B．cooling down C．losing heart D．taking risks 74．A．on guard B．with ease C．under way D．in reality 75．A．disliked B．observed C．represented D．enveloped 76．A．objective B．temporary C．mysterious D．annoying77．A．association B．agreement C．tip D．symptom 78．A．responded B．revived C．crashed D．persisted 79．A．replace B．rescue C．balance D．refund 80．A．optional B．random C．specific D．Faint参考答案：1．B2．C3．A4．B5．D6．D7．C8．C9．A10．B11．C12．B13．D14．A15．B16．C17．B18．D19．A20．C【解析】【导语】本文是一篇说明文。

2023高考英语二轮复习阅读理解专题讲和练——说明文(含解析)
2023高考英语二轮复习：阅读理解专题说明文说明文是一种以说明为主要表达方式的文章体裁。
它通过对实体事物进行科学的解说，对客观事物作出说明或对抽象事理进行阐释，使人们对事物的形态、构造、性质、种类、成因、功能、关系或对事理的概念、特点、来源、演变、异同等有科学的认识，从而获得有关知识。
考情分析说明文所选材料题材丰富多样，涉及社会、科技、文化、生活、人物、教育、生态、安全等方面。
在高考英语阅读理解中，说明文所占比重尤为突出。
它既要求考生能熟练运用词汇和语法知识、理解文章语句、把握语篇整体结构，还要求学生有大量的阅读积淀和知识储备，熟悉不同的话题和不同的题目考查方式。
即便是细节理解题，大多数情况下考生也无法从文章中直接找到与选项表述完全一致的信息，而是需要在理解文章细节信息后作出归纳和判断。
通常一套卷中主旨大意、词义猜测、写作意图/观点态度类高难度试题的考查数量为2道左右，说明文考查此类题目的频率较高，且命题点呈多样化。
二、文体特点与阅读策略1. 语言特点：阅读理解主要考查考生对词汇和句式的掌握和运用情况。
说明文因其生僻词汇多、句式复杂等特点，相对于其他体裁的文章来说难度更大。
结构特点：说明文的特点是客观、简练，文章很少表达作者的感情倾向。
说明文通常采用以下结构形式：（1）总分式。
事物说明文常用“总－分”式、“总－分－总”式和“分－总”式结构，完整的“总－分－总”式说明文先总体概括，再分说，最后再总结。
（2）递进式。
事理说明文常用这种结构形式，通常由浅入深、由表及里、由现象到本质，逐层递进，一层一层地剖析事理。
（3）并列式。
文章各部分的内容没有主次轻重之分。
（4）对照式。
通过两个事物的比较和对照说明其异同。
不管采用何种方式行文，说明文基本上都会遵循“首段引入所要说明的话题，其他部分采用并列式段落或递进式段落对其进行说明”这一规律。
3. 备考误区（1）阅读方法错误。
比如用手指划着读或者边读边译都会减慢应有的阅读速度。

I believe parents have the power to build their child’sselfesteem.They also have the power to shred it to pieces.Sure, lots of it is nature, but nurture plays a big enough role that we should take it very seriously and do our best to help our children love themselves.A person who loves himself is more capable of loving others than a person who doesn’t.A person who loves and respects himself will not allow others to abuse hi m.There’s nothing I want more than for my daughters to love themselves and accept themselves just the way they are.These are some of the things I try to do in order to make sure my children grow up with a positive selfimage.● Tell them you love them eve ry day.● Hug them every day.● Don’t dismiss their dreams for the future.My oldest daughter wants to be a writer when she’s grownup.She writes beautifully, but I partly wants to tell her how hard it is to make a living as a writer—that she should write a s a hobby and find a “real” job.Instead, when she talks about how she will write books for a living, I listen, smile, and tell her how happy I am that she loves to write so much and how talentedI think she is.● Tell them they are perfect just the way the y are.Reinforce the idea that people have a unique combination of talents and strengths and that there’s more than one way to be smart, beautiful, or successful.● Focus on their strengths and encourage them to develop those instead of focusing on their weaknesses.● Teach them they can do anything if they really want to.Teach them not to be afraid of failure and to avoid perfectionism.I frequently point out my own mistakes and failures as a way to show my kids that I am not perfect. Nobody is perfect, and that failing at something is not the end of the world.【写作内容】1．以约30个词概括短文的内容要点；2．以约120个词表达如下要点：(1)比较西方父母和中国父母在育儿的观点和做法上有什么不同之处或是相似之处；(2)你自己或是同学或朋友的父母的养育方式在你们成长的过程中起的积极的或消极的影响；(3)对父母提出建议。

We have a variety of subjects to choose from, such as local customs, changes of people's living conditions, and protection of the environment.Last term our group made a study of the pollution in a river in my hometown. The river used to be clean, but now it is dirty and the water gives off a terrible smell. Our research shows that the river is mainly polluted by the waste water from the factories. Waste water from people's daily life and agricultural chemicals also lead to the pollution of the river. To deal with the problem, we call for people to be aware of how serious the situation is and do something about it.Through our research, not only did we gain practical experience, but also we developed various abilities. We find such research very valuable and helpful.(二)One possible version：Some_senior_middle_school_graduates_have_different_opinions_on_how_to_choose_their_majors_and_universities.About 35% of the students insist that the choice should be based on their own interest.They say interest is the way leading to success.They think it a miserable thing to be obliged to study what they have no interest in.About 45% of the students, however, consider it is the need of the society that matters a lot, for, they say, it will help them find a good job.In addition, interest can be developed and changed.Interestingly, there are about 20% of the students who find it so difficult to make a choice that they prefer to follow the advice offered by their parents orteachers.In my opinion, interest is the most important of all.Without interest you can't study the subject very well and may have more difficulties with your career.(三)One possible version：Dear_Tom，You_wrote_in_your_letter_that_you_wanted_to_rent_an_apartment_in_our_cit y._Recently_I_happened_to_find_one_that_might_be_suitable_for_you.The apartment building is located in Seasonal Garden with a park to the north. It is near to the main road Zhonghua Road. More than 20 bus lines are near at hand. So it is very convenient for you to go to the other parts of the city. Besides, a hospital, a supermarket, a high school, a bank and even a material market are within easy reach. The buildings in this area are of specific style and newly designed. In the community there is a swimming pool and a gym, where you and your family can enjoy yourselves in your spare time.Are_you_satisfied_with_it?_If_so,_I_will_arrange_it_for_you.Yours，Li_Hua(四)One possible version：Dear_Editor，I'm Li Hua, a travel lover. Being one of the volunteers in Youth Hostel, I find that it is a common phenomenon that volunteer travel enjoys an increasing popularity at home and abroad. So in my spare time, I often volunteer in foreign countries and China, which makes me enjoy many benefits. Firstly, volunteer travel can assist us in saving a large sums of money spent on accommodation. As a result, we will have more extra money to do shopping. What's more, it is an excellent chance for us to experience different cultures by volunteer travel, for it provides us with more stages to enrich our knowledge and broaden our horizons. On the contrary, there are a few disadvantages. Living conditions are not satisfactory and because of staying in a strange place, it is easy for us to lack a sense of security.So in order to solve these problems, I suggest that the local government improve its poor living conditions and hold several Chinese Cultural Festivals. Only by doing so can volunteer travel truly become a well-known activity.。
