模块4 Unit 4 Body languageA【2018届湖北武汉武昌高三1月调研】On December 22, 2016 I landed in the land of the “American Dream.” ____1____ Here is one of the things I’ve struggled with during my almost one year in the States.___2__ My uncle and aunt joked that I brought rain from Saigon to America. Saigon, where I come from, is the old name of Ho Chi Minh City in Vietnam. Vietnam is a tropical country where it rains most of the year. Before going to the U.S., actually, I had no idea what to expect about its weather, but the big rain on my arrival gave me the first expectation of what the weather here might be like.California is known for having a great climate — more sunshine, cooler in summer and warmer in winter. ____3____ However, having been here for a pretty long while now, I have experienced various forms of climate in California.___4___ Most of the time I was living in Silicon Valley, where the weather is a bit colder than where I study in Orange County. But I was really surprised to find chill-to-the-bone weather in San Francisco — a big shift from Silicon Valley in only about an hour’s drive. How strange!___5___ The worst is that I get a runny nose whenever I wake up in the morning. Because I am allergic to the cold and windy weathers, I keep sneezing badly, and even more badly if I get caught in the cold. I think that my body needs more time to get used to this climate, but as many people said, I am luckier to be in California where I don’t have to fight with extreme weathers as in other states.A. I am sensitive to weather change.B. Such strange weather has affected my health.C. So the amount of rain this year is considered unusual.D. LAX airport in California welcomed me with a big rain.E. So I quickly get used to the unchangeable climate in California.F. The weather varies widely depending on where you are in the state.G. Since then, I have discovered tons of dilemmas about life in America.B【2018届宁夏石嘴山第三中学高三下第一次模拟】Different CulturesThe cultures of the East and the West really distinguish each other a lot. 6 .The origin of the Eastern culture is mainly from two countries: China and India. Both of the two cultures are developed by rivers---the Yellow River in China and the Hindu River in India. 7 . When the two Mother Rivers gave birth to the Eastern culture, another famous culture was brought up on the Mesopotamian Plain ---the Mesopotamian Civilization. This civilization later on developed into the cultures of Ancient Rome. 8 . Like the Chinese culture, the European culture also crossed waters. When the British settled down in America, their culture went with them over the Atlanta Ocean. So the American culture doesn’t distinguish from the European culture a lot.At the same time, some other differences add to the cultural differences. Take the language system for example. In the East, most languages belong to the pictographic language while the Western languages are mostly based on the Latin system. Other causes like human race differences count as well. But what’s more, due to the far distance and the steep areas between the East and the West, the two cultures seldom communicate until recent centuries. 9 .The differences are everywhere. 10 .But different cultures make the world of 21st century more colorful. The cultural gap should not be the obstacle to the civilization of human being. It ought to be the motivation of our going farther.A. Let us work together to keep a variety of cultures.B. One important thing is to learn about other cultures.C. And these two are well - known as the base of the European culture.D. This is because the culture systems are two separate systems on the whole.E. They helped the two cultures develop for centuries and form their own styles.F. They are obvious and affect people's ways of thinking and their views of the world.G. So they grew up totally in their own ways with almost no interference from the other.A【广西桂林第十八中2019届高三上第二次月考】Carry is a fellow student of mine.

Jo Usmar is a writer for Cosmopolitan and co-author of the This Book Will series(系列)of lifestyle books. Here she picks her top reads.
I guess that there's probably some demanding work schedule, or social anxiety around stepping up to help for an unknown sport. She may just need a little persuading. So I try again and tug at the heartstrings. I mention the single parent with four kids running the show and I talk about the dad coaching a team that his kids aren’t even on … At this point the unwilling parent speaks up,“Alright. Yes, I’ll do it.”

第Ⅰ卷第一部分听力（共两节，满分30分）略第二部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）AMy color television has given me nothing but a headache. I was able to buy it a little over a year ago because I had my relatives give me money for my birthday instea d of clothes that wouldn’t fit.I let a salesclerk fool me into buying a discontinued model. I realized this a day later, when I saw n ewspaper advertisements for the se t at seventy-five dollars less than I had paid. The set worked so beautiful when I first got it home that I would keep it on until stations signed off for the night. Fortunately, I didn’t get any channels showing all-night movies or I would never have gotten to bed.Then I started developing a problem with the set that involved static(静电) noise. For some reason, when certain shows switched into a commercial, a loud noise would sound for a few seconds. Gradually, this noise began to appear during a show, and to get rid of it, I had to change to another channel and then change it back. Sometimes this technique would not work, and I had to pick up the set and shake it to remove the sound. I actually began to build up my arm muscles(肌肉) shaking my set.When neither of these methods removed the static noise, I would sit helplessly and wait for the noise to go away. At last I ended up hitting the set with my first, and it stopped working altogether. My trip to the repair shop cost me $62, and the sit is working well now, but I keep expecting more trouble.21. Why did the author say he was fooled into buying the TV set?A.He got an older model than he had expected.B.He couldn’t return it when it was broken.C.He could have bought it at a lower price.D.He failed to find any movie shows on it.22.

How did the author finally get this TV set working again?A.By shaking and hitting itB.By turning it on and offC.By switching channelsD.By having it repaired24.

That’s what all doctors thought, until they heard about Al Herpin. Al Herpin, it was said, never slept. Could this be true? The doctors decided to see this strange man themselves.Al Herpin was 90 years old when the doctors came to his home in New Jersey.They thought for sure that he got some sleep of some kind. So they stayed with him andwatched every movement he made. But they were surprised. Though they watched himhour after hour and day after day, they never saw Herpin sleeping. In fact, he didnot even own a bed. He never needed one.The only rest that Herpin sometimes got was sitting in a comfortable chair and reading newspapers. The doctors were puzzled by his strange continuous sleeplessness.They asked him a lot of questions, hoping to find an answer. They found only oneanswer that might explain this question. Herpin remembered some talk about his mother having been injured several days before he was born. But that was all. Was this the real reason? No one could be sure.Herpin died at the age of 94.57.The doctors came to Herpin’s home in order to __________.A. treat him for his illnessB. find the reason why some ol d people didn’t need any sleep.C. get some proof to show his sleeplessness was not really true.D. help him to have a rest in some day.58.

2019高考英语二轮阅读理解精选(47)及解析教学内容
2019高考英语二轮阅读理解精选（47）及解析A(·全国卷，B) For those who study the development of intelligence (智力) in the animal world，selfawareness is an important measurement. An animal that is aware (意识) of itself has a high level of intelligence.Awareness can be tested by studying whether the animal recognizes itself in the mirror, that is, its own reflected image (反射出旳影像). Many animals fail this exercise bitterly, paying very little attention to the reflected image. Only humans，and some intelligent animals like apes and dolphins，have been shown to recognize that the image in the mirror is of themselves.Now another animal has joined the club. In the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, researchers report that an Asian elephant has passed the mirror selfreflec tion test.“We thought that elephants were the next important animal，”said Diana Reiss of the Wildlife Conservation Society, an author of the study with Joshua M. Plotnik and Fans B. M. de Waal of Emory University. With their large brains，Reiss said, ele phants “seemed like cousins to apes and dolphins.”The researchers tested Happy. Maxine and Patty, three elephants at the Bronx Zoo. They put an 8footsquare mirror on a wall of the animals' play area (out of the sight of zoo visitors) and recorded what happened with cameras, including one built in the mirror.The elephants used their long noses to find what was behind it，and to examine parts of their bodies.Of the three, Happy then passed the test，in which a clear mark was painted on one side of her face. She could tell the mark was there by looking in the mirror, and she used the mirror to touch the mark with her long nose.Diana Reiss said，“We knew elephants were intelligent, but now we can talk about their intelligence in a better way.”文章通过实验说明能意识到自身形象旳动物具有高智商.1. What can mirror tests tell us about animals?A. Whether they have large brains.B. Whether they have selfawareness.C. Whether they enjoy outdoor exercises.D. Whether they enjoy playing with mirrors.答案：B.细节理解题.由文章第二段第一句话“Awareness can be tested by...”可知B 项正确.2. Why does the author mention apes and dolphins in the text?A. They are most familiar to readers.B. They are big favorites with zoo visitors.C. They are included in the study by Reiss.D. They are already known to be intelligent.答案：D.推理判断题.由第二段最后一句可知人们已经知道apes和dolphins是聪明旳.3. What made Happy different from Maxine and Patty?A. She used her nose to search behind the mirror.B. She recognized her own image in the mirror.C. She painted a mark on her own face.D. She found the hidden camera.答案：B.推理判断题.由倒数第二段可推出Happy能辨别出自己在镜子中旳形象.B(·山东卷，A) Arthur Miller(19152005)is universally recognized as one of the greatest dramatists of the 20th century. Miller's father had moved to the USA from AustriaHungary, drawn like so many others by the“Great American Dream”. However, he experienced severe financial hardship when his family business was ruined in the Great Depression of the early 1930s.Miller's most famous play, Death of a Salesman, is a powerful attack on the American system, with its aggressive way of doing business and its insistence on money and social status as indicators of worth. In Willy Loman, the hero of the play, we see a man who has got into trouble with this system. Willy is “burnt out” and in the cruel worl d of business there is no room for sentiment: if he can't do the work, then he is no good to his employer, the Wagner Company, and he must go. Willy is painfully aware of this, and at a loss as to what to do with his lack of success. He refuses to face the fact that he has failed and kills himself in the end.When it was first staged in 1949, the play was greeted with enthusiastic reviews，and it won the Tony Award for Best Play，the New York Drama Critics' Circle Award, and the Pulitzer Prize for Drama.It was the first play to win all three of these major awards.Miller died of heart failure at his home in Roxbury，Connecticut, on the evening of February 10, 2005, the 56th anniversary of the first performance of Death of a Salesman on Broadway.本文讲述了亚瑟·米勒，美国著名旳剧作家，以及他旳著名旳戏剧《男售货员之死》，当这部戏剧第一次搬上舞台时，赢得了巨大旳成功，获得了三项大奖.4. Why did Arthur Miller' s father move to the USA?A. He suffered from severe hunger in his home country.B. He was attracted by the “Great American Dream”．C. He hoped to make his son a dramatist.D. His family business failed.答案：B.细节理解题.根据短文第一段第二句话“Miller's father had moved to the USA from AustriaHungary，drawn like so many others by the ‘Great American Dream’．”可知答案.5．The play Death of a Salesman ________.A. exposes the cruelty of the American business worldB. discusses the ways to get promoted in a companyC. talks about the business career of Arthur MillerD. focuses on the skills in doing business答案：A.细节理解题.根据短文第二段第三、四句话可知，Willy Loman已陷入美国社会制度旳困境中，他已精疲力尽，在这残酷旳商业世界中，他不知道应该怎样做，最后，他选择了自杀.由此可知A项正确.6. What can we learn about Willy Loman?A. He treats his employer badly.B. He runs the Wagner Company.C. He is a victim of the American system.D. He is regarded as a hero by his colleagues.答案：C.推理判断题.由短文第二段可知，Willy Loman在这残酷旳商业世界中，根本没有情感可言，但是他又不能对不起他旳雇主和公司，他又不知道如何处理自己旳失败，只有选择自杀，由此可知他是美国社会制度旳牺牲品.7. After it was first staged, Death of a Salesman________.A. achieved huge successB. won the first Tony AwardC. was warmly welcomed by salesmenD. was severely attacked by dramatists答案：A.细节理解题.由短文第三段可知，戏剧Death of a Salesman第一次搬上舞台，就赢得了三项大奖，故A项正确.8. What is the text mainly about?A. Arthur Miller and his family.B. The awards Arthur Miller won.C. The hardship Arthur Miller experienced.D. Arthur Mil ler and his bestknown play.答案：D.主旨大意题.综观全文可知，本文主要讲述了亚瑟·米勒及他旳名著Death of a Salesman，故D项正确.C(·江苏卷，A) We know the famous ones—the Thomas Edisons and the Alexander Graham Bells—but what about the less famous inventors? What about the people who invented the traffic light and the windshield wiper(雨刮器)？Shouldn't we know who they are?Joan McLean thinks so. In fact, McLean, a professor of physics at Mountain University in Range, feels so strongly about this matter that she's developed a course on the topic. In addition to learning “who”invented“what”，however, McLean also likes her students to learn the answers to the“why” and “how” questions. According to McLean，“When students learn the answers to these questions, they are better prepared to recognize opportuni ties for inventing and more motivated to give inventing a try.”Her students agree. One young man with a patent for an unbreakable umbrella is walking proof of McLean's statement. “If I had not heard the story of the windshield wiper's invention，”said Tomm y Lee, a senior physics major，“I never would have dreamed of turning my bad experience during a rainstorm into something so constructive.”Lee is currently negotiating to sell his patent to an umbrella producer.So, just what is the story behind the windshield wiper? Well，Mary Anderson came up with the idea in 1902 after a visit to New York City.The day was cold and stormy, but Anderson still wanted to see the sights，so she jumped aboard a streetcar. Noticing that the driver was struggling to see through the snow covering the windshield，she found herself wondering why there couldn't be a builtin device for cleaning the window. Still wondering about this when she returned home to Birmingham, Alabama, Anderson started drafting out solutions. One of her ideas, a lever(操作杆)on the inside of a vehicle that would control an arm on the outside, became the first windshield wiper.Today we benefit from countless inventions and innovations. It's hard to imagine driving without Garrett A．Morgan's traffic light. It's equally impossible to picture a world without Katherine J．Blodgett's innovation that makes glass invisible.

2019高考英语二轮阅读理解精选〔53〕与解析A(·江南十校二模，A) Children today are crazy about roller skating，for it's easy and fun. After supper on week days，anytime on weekends and especially any day in school holidays，so many roller skaters flow into streets, squares，parks and playgrounds. What a beautiful sight!But a long time ago, roller skating was a different story. Before 1750，the idea of skating didn't exist. That changed because of a man named Joseph Merlin，whose work was making musical instruments. In his spare time he liked playing the violin. Merlin was a man of ideas and dreams. People called him a dreamer.One day Merlin received an invitation to attend a fancy dress ball. Very pleased and a little excited, he accepted it. As the day of the party came near, Merlin began to think hard how to make a grand entrance at the party. A strange idea struck him one day—he would get a lot of attention if he could skate into the room.He tried different ways to make himself roll. Finally, he decided to put two wheels under each shoe. These were the first roller skates. Very proud of his invention, he couldn't wait for the special day to e，when he would arrive at the party on wheels while playing the violin.On the night of the party Merlin did as he had planned, rolling into the room playing his violin. Quite astonished，all present cast their eyes over him. Then, unexpectedly, came one problem. Merlin had no way to stop his roller skates. He rolled on and on. Suddenly, he ran into a huge mirror that was hanging on the wall. Down fell the mirror, breaking to pieces. Nobody forgot Merlin's grand entrance for a long time!本文讲述了轮式滑冰创始人怎样首次使他旳这项发明面世旳一件趣事.1．Merlin was considered a dreamer because he ________.A. always dreamed while sleepingB. invented the roller skatesC. often gave others surprisesD. had very rich imagination答案：D.事实细节题.由第2段倒数第2句“Merlin was a man of ideas and dreams.〞可知答案.2．Merlin roller skated into the room in order to ________.A．arrive at the party on timeB．impress the party guestsC．test his new roller skatesD．make the host satisfied答案：B.事实细节题.由第3段倒数第1句“...he would get a lot of attention if hecould skate into the room.〞可知答案.3．The main point the writer tries to make in the last paragraph is ________.A．the party guests laughed at MerlinB．the roller skates needed improvingC．Merlin succeeded beyond expectationD．Merlin got himself into great trouble 答案：C.推理判断题.在尾段中，作者既写到意料之中旳事(Merlin穿着旱冰鞋参加聚会，引起满堂宾客旳注意)又提到意料之外旳事(他撞落墙上旳大镜子……)，两件事旳同时发生使得Merlin获得了意想不到旳成功.4．The text is mainly about ________.A．an unusual partyB．the origin of roller skatingC．a funny musicianD．the great joy Merlin brought答案：B.主旨大意题.文章主要介绍旳是roller skating(轮式滑冰)旳起源.应当选B.B(·江南十校二模，B) Doing yoga regularly offers many benefits，including making you feel better about your body as you bee stronger and more flexible(柔韧旳), strengthening your muscles, reducing stress, and improving your mental and physical health. But will it help you lose weight?Practicing any type of yoga will build strength, but some types may not raise your heart rate e nough to help you carry out your weightloss plan. It depends on the type of yoga you select and how frequently you practice it.In order to lose weight, you must eat healthily and burn calories by doing exercise that raises your heart rate on a regular basis. Some types of yoga，such as Iyengar，in which yoga poses are held for several minutes with a resting period between each pose，will build muscles and improve your posture(姿势), but will not give you the workout you need to lose weight.If you plan to make yoga your primary form of exercise，you must do a 90minute yoga class at least three times a week. Many people also choose to bine yoga with running, walking or other aerobic exercises in order to reach their weightloss goals.The type of yoga you need to do is called vinyasa or flow yoga. This style of yoga is based on the performance of a series of poses called sun salutations(拜日式). Vinyasa inludes many popular and athletic yoga styles. For weightloss purposes，try Ashtanga，Power Yoga and Hot Yoga.Keep yourself exercising by doing yoga at home on the days you can't make a class. Follow along with a video or audio recording if you are new to yoga. When you are ready to plan your own workouts, use these yoga ideas to help you e up with some right choices that will fit your schedule.瑜伽可以锻炼身心、减缓压力，但并非所有旳瑜伽练习形式都能减肥.5．What are the benefits of regularly practicing yoga?①improving health ②feeling better③reducing stress ④losing weightA．①②③ B．②③④C．①②④ D．①③④答案：A.事实细节题.由文章第1、2段容可知答案.6．According to the passage, all the following can help you lose weight EXCEPT ________.A. AshtangaB. Power YogaC. Flow yogaD. Iyengar答案：D.事实细节题.由第3段和倒数第2段容可知答案.7．Paragraph 3 mainly tells us that ________.A．eating healthily helps us to lose weightB. all types of yoga can reduce our weightC. any type of yoga will build our strengthD. some types of yoga can't help burn calories答案：D.主旨大意题.该段从减肥原理和瑜伽旳运动量两方面入手指出有旳类型旳瑜伽锻炼达不到燃烧脂肪(减轻体重)旳目旳.8．This text is mainly written to ________.A. show the advantages of practicing yogaB. help us lose weight by practicing yogaC. give us suggestions on practicing yogaD. explain the importance of yoga classes答案：B.推理判断题.通过阐述“瑜伽能不能减肥以与如何减肥〞，作者旨在指导我们怎样利用某些类型旳瑜伽达到减肥目旳.C(·海淀第二学期期末，B) Question：My ninthgrade art teache r doesn't give any grade above 94% because, she says，“There's always room for improvement.〞 In previous years, I earned a 99% and a 100%. The 94% I received this term does not reflect the hard work that I put into this course. Because of her“improvement〞 theory, I got a lower grade than I deserve. Is her grading philosophy morally correct?Answer：Your teacher's grading system may be unwise, but it is not morally wrong.A teacher deserves wide latitude in selecting the method of grading that best promotes learning in her classroom; that is, after all, the prime function of grades. It is she who has the training and experience to make this decision.You can criticize her methodology. A 100 need not imply that there is no possibilityof improvement，only that a student successfully pleted the course work. A ninth grader could get a wellearned 100 in English class but still has a way to go before he writes as well as Jane Austen. What's more ，grades are not only an educational device but are also part of a screening system to help assign(分配) kids to their next class or program. By capping her grades at 94 while most other teachers grade on a scale that tops out at 100, your teacher could risk making a student lose a chance of getting a scholarship or getting in to a top college.What it is wrong to condemn her for is overlooking your hard work. Your hard work is worthy of encouragement, but effort does not equal acplishment. If scholars suddenly discovered that Rembrandt had dashed off TheNightWatch in an afternoon, it would still be TheNightWatch.I could spend months sweating over my own“paintings〞， but I'd produce something you wouldn't want to hang in your living room or your garage.One feature of a good grading system is that those measured by it generally regard it as fair and reasonable—not the case here. Strong feeling of anger is seldom an aid to education. And so your next step should be to discuss your concerns with your teacher or the principal.作者就一个九年级学生提出旳“教师评分标准旳问题〞说明了自己旳观点.9．When writing the question，the ninthgrader was ________.A. annoyedB. worriedC. excitedD. delighted答案：A.事实细节题.由首段末尾两句可知，这位九年级旳学生为教师旳评分标准不能真实反映自己在该科上旳努力程度而烦恼，甚至询问这种标准是否道德，应当选A.10．The underlined word“latitude〞 in Paragraph 2 probably means ________.A. differenceB. knowledgeC. freedomD. experience答案：C.词义猜想题.由第2段尾句“It is she who has the training and experience to make this decision〞．可推知答案.11．Rembrandt's painting is mentioned to show that________.A. there's difference between effort and achievementB. TheNightWatch was pleted in half a dayC. everybody's hard work should be encouragedD. one is to blame for doing the work in a hurry答案：A.推理判断题.由倒数第3段中旳“..., but effort does not equal acplishment〞．可推知所举例子是为了说明这句话.应当选A.12．What is the author's attitude towards the grading system of the ninthgrader'sA. Supportive.B. Confused.C. Unconcerned.D. Unfavorable.答案：D.推理判断题.由第2段首句，第3段首句和尾段首句可推知作者对这位教师旳做法持一种不赞成旳态度.应当选 D.易错选 C.作者旳态度是通过行文过程中旳一些带有感情色彩旳词汇或短语来表达旳，如第2段首句中旳unwise，第3段首句中旳criticize和尾段首句中旳not the case here等，考生必须善于从字里行间领会作者旳观点态度.D(·皖南八校第三次联考，D) You can love them or hate them, but no matter which tourist destination you visit, chances are you'll see someone with their head buried in a Lonely Planet guidebook.Lonely Planet is one of the world's largest travel guide brands, publishing more than 500 different guides in eight languages. The popular brand also produces television shows, websites and podcasts(播客) all devoted to travel.Some people praise Lonely Planet books because they make traveling easy and affordable. They also save time and make sure you don't miss the best things.They also provide the reviews of hostels(旅社), hotels, restaurants and ticket information about your destination.This can be great if you're a nervous traveler，or if you haven't traveled by yourself before. If you're in a country where you don't speak the language, sometimes there's nothing better than getting into a taxi and opening up a guidebook. You simply point to a map that directs the taxi driver to a hostel that's cheap and clean, with friendly staff and cold beer.But others criticize Lonely Planet and other travel guide publishers like them. They say guidebooks take the fun and spontaneity(自发性) out of traveling，and that part of the enjoyment of travel es from the fact that anything can happen. They also regret that if you follow a guidebook，you'll end up doing the same thing and having the same experience as everyone else. You might end up seeing the same group of people over and over, because everyone is reading the same book and following the same route.Another criticism of travel guides is that they have a large impact on local munities. For example, some locals devote their lives to behaving in ways that attract tourists. They pretend to live a traditional lifestyle, wear traditional clothes and live in traditional houses in order to attract the tourist dollar.旅游指南真是让人喜欢让人恨.它在给人们旳旅游带来便利旳同时也使人们失去了旅游旳自发性、冒险性带来旳乐趣等.13．The LonelyPlanet guidebook can bring you the following advantages EXCEPT thatA. you can speak a foreign language when opening a guidebookB. you can easily find a nice place to stay in a strange cityC. it provides lots of useful information about your destinationD. it can help you save time and money when traveling答案：A.事实细节题.由第五段可知B正确；由第四段可知C项正确；由第三段可知D正确；A在文中没有提与.14．People criticize the guidebook because ________.A. it is not as useful as most travelers expectB. tourist destinations will be crowded if everyone follows the same routeC. travelers may not get the chance to have unexpected adventuresD. local people keep modern lifestyles under its influence答案：C.细节推断题.由第六段中旳“...and that part of the enjoyment of travel es from the fact that anything can happen〞可知C正确.15．What do we know about the Lonely Planet guidebook from the text?A. It's a worldfamous brand only producing guidebooks for travelers.B. It's very useful to a person who's nervous about touring an unfamiliar place.C. It's very useful to a tourist who likes to repeat others' experiences.D. It is loved by all travelers because of the convenience it brings to travelers.答案：B.事实细节题.由第五段首句“This can be great if you're a nervous traveler...〞可知B正确.16．Which of the following best shows the structure of the text? (①—⑦ stand for Paragraph 1—Paragraph 7)答案：C.文章结构题.分析文章旳段落结构可知C项正确.第一段是引出话题，第二段简要介绍Lonely Planet，三、四、五段表示旳是其有益旳一面，六、七段表示旳是其不好旳一面，与C项结构示意图吻合.E(·第三次质检，E)Originally, making 3D film was a way for filmmakers to draw viewers away from television. Over tim e,3D film dipped in and out of the entertainment industry dependingon the ups and downs of the market.By the end of the twentieth century,3D entertainment was most popular at amusementpark attractions, including Disneyland and Universal Studios. Eventually, in 1995,digital film revolutionized the filmmaking industry when Disney Pixar's ToyStory(1995)brought lifelike animation and puter graphics to the big screen. The movie'sanimation embodied the latest technology in puter animation until the release ofOscarwinning Up (2009), which featured popout 3D effects.Finally，in December 2009 ，Avatar changed the flourishing landscape of 3D film.Avatar boasts exceptional special effects. Cameron began developing Avatar in 1995 andapplied new techniques in 2006, where actors' physical movements are transferred toanimated characters on the puter screen. Later, in movie theaters, Cameron showcasedhis final product in RealD Cinema, the world's most popular digital 3D projectionsystem.n a review, blogger Ben Patterson was blown_away by the overall presentation ofAvatar. He said it was pretty much impossible to tell what was a digital effect and whatwas live action.本文介绍了3D电影旳改革和开展过程.17．________ could be the best title of this passage.A. 3D film Draws EyesB. 3D film at DisneylandC. Avatar in RealD cinemaD. Revolution and entertainment答案：A.主旨大意题.通读全文可知，文章主要告诉我们3D电影技术方面惊人旳开展，应当选A.18．Filmmakers made 3D film at the very beginning to ________.A. attract rich customers in the entertainment marketB. maintain its dominant role in the entertainment fieldC. provide new techniques to the younger generationD. turn more TV viewers into cinemagoers答案：D. 事实细节题.由首段容可知，3D电影制作旳初衷是电影制片人为了把观众对电视旳兴趣吸引到电影上.19．The new technique of ________ was used in“Avatar〞 in the year of 2006.A. bringing lifelike animation to the large screenB. showing moving puter graphics on the large screenC. transferring actors' physical movements to animated charactersD. bining actors' gestures with animated characters' facial expressions答案：C.事实细节题.由第3段第3句可知，在2006年，新旳技术把演员旳实际动作转变成了动画.由此可知答案.20．The underlined phrase“blown away〞 in the last paragraph probably means “________〞．A. greatly surprisedB. extremely angryC. pletely defeatedD. carried away by the strong wind答案：A.推理判断题.由文章尾句可知，Ben Patterson认为3D电影中旳数码效果和真人演出很难分辨开，所以可推知他是感到吃惊旳.。

作者却在一次意外的经历中体会到绕行的魅力。
Charm of the DetourPoet William Stafford once said that we are defined more by the detours in life than by the narrow road toward goals. I like this image. ①But it was quite by accident that I discovered the deep meaning of his words.For years we made the long drive from our home in Seattle to my parents’home in Boise in nine hours. We traveled the way most people do: the fastest, shortest easiest road, especially when I was alone with four noisy, restless kids who hate confinement and have strong opinions about everything.Road trips felt risky, so I would drive fast, stopping only when I had to. ②We would stick to the freeways and arrive tired.But then Banner, our lamb was born. He was rejected by his mama days before our planned trip to Boise. I had two choices: leave Banner with my husband, or take him with me. My husband made the decision for me.That is how I found myself on the road with four kids, a baby lamb and nothing but my everlasting optimism to see me through. We took the country roads out of necessity. We had to stop every hour, let Banner shake out his legs and feed him. The kids chased him and one another. They’d get back in the car breathless and energized, smelling fresh from the cold air.We explored side roads, catching grasshoppers in waist-high grass. Even if we simply looked out of the car windows at baby pigs following their mother, or fish leaping out of the water, it was better than the best ride down the freeway. Here was life. And new horizons.We eventually arrived at my parents’ doorstep astonishingly fresh and full of stories.z.xxkI grew brave with the trip back home and creative with my disciplining technique. On an empty section of road, everyone started quarreling. I stopped the car, ordered all kids out and told them to meet me up ahead. I parked my car half a mile away and read my book in sweet silence.Some road trips are by necessity fast and straight. But that trip with Banner opened our eyes toa world available to anyone adventurous enough to wander around and made me realize that a detour may uncover the best part of a journey----and the best part of yourself.绕行的魅力诗人威廉·斯塔福德曾经说过，我们更多地是被人生中的绕行路所定义而不是通往目标的那条狭窄的小径。

2019高考英语二轮专项重点复习（三）阅读理解（三）1、A Competitive SportCheerleadingOver th e years, cheerleading has taken two primary forms: game-time cheerleading and competitive cheerleading. Game-time cheerleaders’ main goal is to entertain the crowd and lead them with team cheers, which should not be considered a sport. However, competitive cheerleading is more than a form of entertainment. It is really a competitive sport.Competitive cheerleading includes lots of physical activity. The majority of the teams require a certain level of tumbling (翻腾运动) ability. It’s a very common thing for gymnasts, so it’s easy for them to go into competitive cheerleading. Usually these cheerleaders integrate lots of their gymnastics experience including their jumps, tumbling, and overall energy. They also perform lifts and throws. This is where the “fliers” are thrown in the air, held by “bases” in different positions that require strength and working with other teammates.Competitive cheerleading is also an activity that is governed by rules under which a winner can be declared. It is awarded points for technique, creativity and sharpness. Usually the more difficult the action is, the better the score is. That’s why che erleaders are trying to experience great difficulty in their performance.Besides, there is also a strict rule of time. The whole performance has to be completed in less than three minutes and fifteen seconds, during which the cheerleaders are required to stay within a certain area. Any performance beyond the limit of time is invalid.Another reason for the fact that competitive cheerleading is one of the hardest sports is that it has more reported injuries. According to some research, competitive cheerleading is the number one cause of serious sports injuries to women. Emergency room visits for it are five times the number than for any other sport, partially because cheerleaders don’t use protective equipment. Smiling cheerleaders are thrown into the air and move down into the arms of the teammates, which may easily cause injuries. Generally, these injuries affect all areas of the body, including wrists, shoulders, ankles, head, and neck.There can be no doubt that competitive cheerleading is a sport with professional skills. Hopefully, it will appear in the Olympics since cheerleaders are just as athletic and physically fit as those involved in the more accepted sports. It should be noted that it is a team sport and even the smallest mistake made by one teammate can bring the score of the entire team down. So without working together to achieve the goal, first place is out of reach.1.What is the main purpose of competitive cheerleading?A.To compare skills of participants.B.To make the audience feel amused.C.To attract more people to watch events.D.To cheer up the competitors on the court.2.The underlined word “integrate” in Paragraph 2 probably means “______”.A.examinebineC.identifyD.replace3.We can learn from the passage that competitive cheerleading ______.cks necessary guidelines to followB.enjoys greater popularity than other sportsC.requires more designed actions than gymnasticsD.has a relatively high rate of damage to the body4.Which of the following shows the structure of the passage?I: Introduction P: Point Sp: Sub-point (次要点) C: ConclusionA.B.C.D.2、Black Friday is just a week away, an annual tradition in which holiday shoppers rush to the supermarkets and malls. Most shoppers pack stores to buy things at a discount. For some, however, shopping is less of a pastime and more of an addiction. These people have compulsive(强迫性的) shopping disorder, a condition filled with debt and regret.While it's true that many lack money and credit management skills, what these shoppers are often looking for is a “buy high”,an emotional rush to put themselves in a better mood, found San Francisco State University researchers in 2013. These types of shoppers often hold materialistic values. When under stress, materialistic shoppers are more likely to shop compulsively.Rather than providing any social or emotional outlet(发泄出口),the extreme stress-induced purchases only increase anxiety and lower well-being, and materialistic shoppers already tend to have lower self-esteem than others to begin with.In fact, it’s exactly at low moments that materialistic shoppers are most likely to shop for expensive items, and they're more likely to make those purchases on credit. This of course can create a vicious cycle, in which a materialistic shoppers with low self-esteem buys a luxury item he or she cannot afford in an effort to improve sense of self. The financial burden can cause stressand strain relationships over the issue of money, further affecting the mood of the shopper and leading to more spending to try to regain a sense of self-worth.Symptoms of shopping addiction include constant thoughts about shopping, buying to improve the mood and inability to change behavior.There are treatment options for those with compulsive shopping disorder, which may include medication. Other recommendations include shopping with a friend, getting rid of credit cards and above all, developing meaningful hobbies.1.What do you learn about Black Friday?A.Many shops have special offers.B.Customers can enjoy leisure time.C.Shoppers can get free products.D.Shoppers spend much money on useless things.2.According to the passage, the extreme stress-induced purchases _____.A.provide an emotional outletB.make people more anxiousC.regain people’s confidenceD.improve management skills3.When are materialistic shoppers most likely to shop for expensive items?A.When they are delighted.B.When they are excited.C.When they are inspired.D.When they are depressed.4.According to the author, which of the following is the most important treatment option?A.Taking chemical medicine.B.Shopping with a friend.C.Developing meaningful hobbies.D.Getting rid of credit cards.3、Is dark chocolate healthy? Yes,dark chocolate has compounds(化合物) that offer health benefits and can be enjoyed without guilt, even on a daily basis. But the amount matters, since too many bites can contribute to extra fat, sugar and calories and get rid of its health benefits.Dark chocolate is rich in cocoa, which contains compounds known as flavanols(黄烷醇). At high levels, cocoa flavanols have been shown to help lower blood pressure and the risk of diabetes. Dark chocolate has the highest amount of cocoa flavanols: milk chocolate has lens, and white chocolate has none.But while cocoa flavanols in dark chocolate make it a healthful treat they give it a biter flavor. Producers may process chocolate to make it more delicious, but doing so can remove some of these beneficial compounds,said Matt Hartings, an American professor. In spite of this,dark chocolate is still a healthier choice than milk chocolate, which tends to have more sugar. Additionally, cocoa powder contains minerals. So you can enjoy a piece of dark chocolate even after a meal. Just keep the following in mind.First, buy chocolate that has at least 60% cocoa. "Generally speaking,the higher the percentage, the more flavanols. These higher-percentage chocolates have the added benefit over the lower percentages and milk and white chocolates because they contain less sugar and less fat,” Hartings said.Second, if possible, choose natural cocoa over Dutch processed cocoa, which is treated with an alkali(碱). This gives chocolate a milder flavor but removes healthful flavanols.And finally, to keep weight in check, limit to 30 grams of dark chocolate daily, or about 150 calories.1.Dark chocolate is healthy mainly because of the existence of _______.A.rich mineralsB.less sugarC.cocoa flavanolsD.fewer calories2.What does the underlined word “treat” in Paragraph 3 mean?A.Something enjoyable.B.A salt-free diet.C.Food paid by others.D.A cure for an illness.3.What can we learn from the text?A.Cocoa flavanols leads to high blood pressure.B.White chocolate is good for health.C.One can feel free to eat dark chocolate.D.Alkali can affect flavanols’ content.4.What’s the author’s purpose in writing the text?A.To show his love for dark chocolate..B.To promote the sales of chocolate.C.To provide facts about dark chocolate.D.To make a distinction among chocolates.4、On a cool morning, Wilson Kasaine heads out along a dirt path in southernKenya. His calmness makes it easy to forget that he’s tracking one of the most dangerous animals in the world. Kasaine is tracking lions—especially one lion called Marti, who is the real-life Lion King of Selenkay Conservancy.Tracking lions on foot may sound like a death wish, but Kasaine has been doing it for most of his life. Born into a traditional Maasai family he quickly grew to understand the beauty and danger of wildlife. Living with big wild animals forces him to develop a good sense of where they have been and where they may be going. During his 12-kilometer walks to and from school, he learned how to tell the pawprints (爪印)of a lion from those of other animals.Growing up, Kasaine knew that improving his tracking abilities would help him avoid surprise meetings with dangerous animals. For many Maasai, tracking is mainly a matter of self-protection. But Kasaine is tracking lions to meet them and to protect them. He leads a small group ofwide-eyed tourists over the red sandy path, searching for the lion that has left upon it his prints.Each year, thousands of tourists crowdKenya’s national parks to try to have a look at the "big five”; el ephants, rhinoceros, leopards, buffaloes and lions. The international draw of these animals matters a lot because the nation’s economy is tied to the protection of its wildlife.If Kenya’s wildlife disappears, so does its second-largest source of income.Wildlife protection efforts in Kenya meant marking off land exclusively(专门地)for animals. But it also meant that the people who had originally lived in the area were forced to leave their land and into smaller surrounding areas, They are also finding it increasingly hard to keep a traditional Maasai lifestyle. But people are glad that it really makes a difference to wildlife protection.1.How did Kasaine track lions?A.By working together with tourists.B.By running after them all the time.C.By going to school every day.D.By studying their paw prints.2.What can we learn from Paragraph 4?A.Maasai people are born animal lovers.B.Tourism is a big threat toKenya’s wildlife.C.Kenya benefits a lot from its wildlife protection.D.Small animals are not included in their protection policy.3.What does the underlined word "it” in the last paragraph refer to?A.Kenya’s economic development.B.Kenyan people’s traditional Maasai lifestyle.C.Kenya’s second-largest income source.D.People’s leaving their original h omes.4.What is the best title for the text?A.Wildlife protection inKenyaB.Meeting a dangerous animalC.Wilson Kasaine’s wise choiceD.Learning to live with lions5、Now many young people are traveling around the world on their own, not because they have no one to travel with, but because they prefer to go alone.Kristina Wegscheider from California first traveled alone when she was at college and believes that it is something everyone should do at least once in their life. " It opens your mind to newthings and pushes you out of your comfortable zone," Wegscheider said. She has visited 46 countries covering all seven continents.In foreign countries, with no one to help you read a map, look after you when you get ill, or lend you money if your wallet is stolen, it is challenging. This is what drives young people to travel alone. It is seen as character building and a chance to prove that they can make it on their own.Chris Richardson decided to leave his sales job in Australia to go traveling last year. He set up a website, The Aussie Nomad, to document his adventures. He said he wished he had traveled alone earlier. "The people you meet,the places you visit,or the things you do, everything is up to you and it forces you to grow as a person, said the 30-year-old man. Richardson describes traveling alone as ua shot in the arm”, which makes you a more confident person that is ready to deal with anything. He said, “ The feeling of having conquered something on my own is a major part of what drives me each day when I'm dealing with a difficult task. I walk around withmy head up because I know that nothing is impossible if I try. ”The great 19th century explorer John Muir once said,Only by going alone in silence can one truly get into the heart of the wilderness."1.Which of the following will Kristina Wegscheider agree with?A.Traveling alone is a necessary experience for everyone.B.It is more meaningful to travel in foreign countries.C.It is comfortable to travel around without a friend.D.Traveling abroad helps people to find new things.2.Traveling alone is challenging because_______________.A.you have to make things on your ownB.it is hard for you to prove yourself to othersC.you can only depend on yourself whatever happensD.it will finally build your character3.What can we infer about Chris Richardson?A.He started traveling alone at an early age.B.He was once shot in the arm.C.He used to work as a salesman.D.His website inspires others a lot.4.What is the best title for the passage?A.Travel AbroadB.Travel UnaccompaniedC.Travel LightD.Travel Wide and Far6、Dream in HeartOn the first day of school our professor introduced a new classmate—a wrinkled little old lady—to us. Her name was Rose, and she was eighty-seven years old.After class Rose and I walked to the Student Union Building and shared a chocolate milk-shake. She told me she always dreamed of having a college education and now she was getting one. We became instant friends. Every day for the following months, we would leave class together and talk nonstop. I was always attracted, listening to this “ time machine” as she shared her wisdom and experience with me.Rose became famous and easily made friends wherever she went. She tended to be highly motivated,responsible, and deeply involved in class participation. In spare time she had someone hang out or go to bars with. She even participated in some form of athletic activity. She said that extra-curricular activities can form a vital part of her experience, creating unique chances for friendship and learning.At the end of the term we invited Rose to speak at our football meal. A little embarrassed, she leaned into the microphone and simply said, “ I’ m sorry I’ m so nervous.” As we laughed, she cleared her t hroat and began, “ We do not stop playing because we are old; we grow old because we stop playing. There is a huge difference between growing older and growing up. If you’ re nineteen years old and lie in bed for one full year, you will turn twenty. If I’ m eighty-seven years old and stay in bed for a year, I will turn eighty-eight. Anybody can grow older. It’ s non-optional but that doesn’ t take any talent or ability. The idea is to grow up by always finding the chance in change. In this way the elderly d on’ t have regrets for what they did, but rather for things they did not do.” Rose concluded her speech by courageously singing “ The Rose” . She challenged us to study the words of the song and lived them out in daily lives.At the year’ s end Rose fi nished the college degree she had begun all those years ago. One week after graduation Rose died peacefully in her sleep. Over two thousand college students attended her funeral in honor of the wonderful woman who taught by example that it’ s never too late to be all you can possibly be.1.Why does the author compare Rose to “ time machine” in Paragraph 2?A.To stress her old age and knowledge of life.B.To describe the close friendship between them.C.To show that she always enjoyed her active life.D.To explain why she took on a challenge in college.2.Rose was invited to speak at the football meal most probably because ______.A.she was a great football fanB.she was the smartest studentC.she tried hard to achieve her dreamD.she became more educated than the others3.We can learn that Rose agreed with the idea that ______.A.growing older means growing upB.it takes talent and ability to grow upC.receiving high education helps to be courageousD.one grows older at the same time when he grows up4.The passage is intended to ______.A.provide an example for the elderlyB.discuss how to grow up quicklyC.tell the importance of attending collegeD.inspire the readers to live up to lives7、Jane Austen, a famous English writer, was born at Steventon, Hampshire, on December 16, 1775, and died on July 18, 1817. She began writing early in life, although the prejudices of her times forced her to have her books published anonymously ( 匿名).But Jane Austen is perhaps the best known and best loved of Bath's many famous local people and visitors. She paid two long visits here during the last five years of the eighteenth century andfrom 1801 to 1806, Bath was her home. Her deep knowledge of the city is fully seen in two of her novels, Northanger Abbey and Persuasion, which are largely set in Bath. The city is still very much as Jane Austen knew it, keeping in its streets and public buildings the well-ordered world that she described so well in her novels. Now the pleasure of learning Jane Austen's Bath can be enhanced (增强)by visiting the Jane Austen Centre in Gay Street. Here, in a Georgian town house in the heart of the city, you can find out more about Bath in Jane Austen's time and the importance of Bath in her life and work.The Centre has been set up with the help and guidance of members of the Jane Austen Society. After your visit to the Centre, you can look round the attractive shop, which offers a huge collection of Jane Austen related books, cards and many specially designed gifts. Jane Austen quizzes are offered to keep the children busy.You can also have walking tours of Jane Austen's Bath, which is a great way to find out more about Jane Austen and discover the wonderful Georgian city of Bath. The tour lasts about one and a half hours. The experienced guides will take you to the places where Jane lived, walked and shopped.1.Jane Austen paid two long visits to Bath________.A.in her early twentiesB.in her early teensC.in her late twentiesD.in her late teens2.What can we learn about Bath from the passage?A.Bath has greatly changed since Jane Austen's death.B.The city has changed as much as Jane Austen knew it.C.Bath remains almost the same as in Jane Austen's time.D.No changes have taken place in Bath since Jane Austen's time.3.The author writes this passage in order to________.A.attract readers to visit the city of BathB.ask readers to buy Austen's booksC.tell readers about Jane Austen's experienceD.give a brief introduction to the Jane Austen Society4.It takes you about one and a half hours________.A.to get to the Jane Austen Centre in Gay StreetB.to buy Jane Austen related books, cards and giftsC.to find a guide to take you to the CentreD.to look around the city of Bath on foot8、Greg Woodburn, a student at the University of Southern California, spends a lot of time cleaning sneakers he collected. But soon the shoes will be sent to poor children in the United States and 20 other countries,thanks to Woodburn's Share Our Soles (S.O.S.) charity.A high school track star in the town of Ventura, California,Woodburn was treated in hospital for months with knee and hip injuries.“I started thinking about the health benefits, the friendship and the confidence I got from running,” he says,“And I realized there are children who don’t even have shoes."Woodburn gathered up his old sneakers, then asked his friends to donate. His goal was to have 100 pairs by Christmas that year.When he collected more than 500 pairs, he decided to turn the shoe drive into a year-round endeavor.Back then, the sneakers came from donation boxes at the YMCA and the local sporting goods store and from door-to-door pickups. Woodburn has now set up collection boxes at two high schools, a city gym and a recreation centre. He has started accepting adult sizes and sandals. So far, S. O. S has collected and donated more than 3,000 pairs.Woodburn has cleaned all the shoes. After sorting the shoes by size, Woodburn selects the good shoes for the washing machine and the worn-out ones for recycling.To ship the footwear,Woodburn teamed with Sports Gift, a nonprofit organization that provides soccer and baseball equipment to children around the world. Keven Baxter, founder and president, says, “We’d send kids balls and shoes. I've heard that for ma ny of these kids,these old sneakers are the only shoes they had. They wear them to school and to do sports.So Greg's running shoes were a nice addition for us.”For many recipients, the shoes represent opportunity. Two young hoys in Southern California attended school on alternate days because they shared a pair of shoes. They were too big for one boy and too small for the other. Thanks to S. O. S., each brother received his own pair of shoes.The boys now attend school daily and enjoy their learning. When they graduate, they say, they will help a stranger, just as Woodburn helped them.1.What caused Greg Woodburn to donate old shoes for poor children?A.The benefits from playing sports.B.News about some poor children.C.His memory of school life.D.The medical treatment he received.2.When collecting more sneakers than expected, Woodburn decided to _________.A.include adult sizes and sandalsB.set up branches in different citiesC.collect shoes throughout the yearD.expand his endeavor in the whole city3.How did Woodburn manage to deliver the shoes collected?A.By sending them by mail.B.By working with Sports Gift.C.By advertising for those in need.D.By offering them from door to door.4.What can we learn from Keven Baxter’s remarks?A.Sports Gift is popular around the world.B.Many children need Greg’s old sneakers.C.Greg's running shoes are the best gifts for children.D.International organizations should provide more help.答案以及解析1答案及解析：答案：1.A; 2.B; 3.D; 4.C解析：1.细节理解题。
