2014年高考英语全国卷2-答案

2014普通高等学校招生全国统一考试（全国新课标卷2）英语答案解析第Ⅰ卷第一部分听力第一节1.【答案】A2.【答案】B3.【答案】C4.【答案】B5.【答案】A第二节6.【答案】B7.【答案】C8.【答案】A9.【答案】C10.【答案】A11.【答案】A12.【答案】C13.【答案】B14.【答案】C15.【答案】A16.【答案】C17.【答案】B18.【答案】C19.【答案】A20.【答案】B第二部分阅读理解第一节21.【答案】B【解析】根据第一段内容可知，作者的丈夫只身一人到达悉尼之后就开始找房子。

故选B。

【解析】根据倒数第二段最后一句可知，那位女孩的父母是在一封写了一半的信里发现作者丈夫留给朋友的新电话号码的。

故选C。

23.【答案】D【解析】根据“not only...but also...”所连接的“restore”后面的宾语，并结合上文可知，小女孩一家人把那些重要的文件还给了作者的丈夫，所以此处应选D项，意为“恢复”。

24.【答案】C【解析】文章主要讲述了作者的丈夫丢失的重要文件被人扔在垃圾箱里面，然后又被一家好心人捡到重新归还给作者的丈夫的故事，这使作者的丈夫又重拾了对人性的信任。

作者丈夫的这些东西之所以能够失而复得离不开垃圾箱这一线索。

因此C项做标题最恰当。

文章大意：本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了“地球日”的来历以及它在唤起人们的环保意识、节能减排、保护环境等方面所做的贡献。

25.【答案】C【解析】根据文章第一段可知，在1970年以前人们不知道什么是“环境”，更不知道环境问题。

故选C。

26.【答案】A细节理解题。

难度中等。

【解析】根据第二段第二句可知，文中的“millions of”与题干中的“mainly”相符，所以对环保的支持主要来自美国的草根民众。

故选A。

27【答案】D【解析】根据倒数第二段尤其是该段最后一句内容可知，美国通过采取有效的措施大大降低了污染。

C项干扰性很强，但是与原文第三段第二句“The number of cities producing CO beyond the standard has been reduced from 40 to 9.”不符，原文意思是说CO超标的城市数量从40个减少到9个。

Spot DictationThe subject of today’s lecture is culture shock: group pressure in action. Culture shock, as you know, is the term used to describe the experience many people have when they travel to another country, and it can be seen as a manifestation of group pressure in action. It is a good example of group pressure, because it shows what happens when an individual suddenly experiences different culture rules, the rules of another cultural group.Now culture shock is complex phenomenon, but I’m going to focus on three main ideas in this lecture. First of all, we will consider the reasons why people experience culture shock.Secondly, I will describe the different stages of this experience. Finally, I’ll mention some possible applications of this research, because although you might think that culture shock effects, say, only travellers that is not the case. In fact, cross-cultural studies have immense practical value for modern society.First, then, why do people experience culture shock? Think about this for a minute. When you grow up in a particular set of surroundings, naturally you get used to the rules and guidelines that govern the behavior. of the people around you. In a sense, you become totally dependent on the rules of your social group. You tend to ques articulated, and therefore, you’re not aware of their impact. In other words, tion them; you just accept them without thinking. These rules are often not clearlyyou are not necessarily conscious of them.They only become important when, for example, you go to another country or a different environment that’s governed by a different set of rules. In fact, this experience can be so shocking that it has been compared to having a bucket of cold water thrown over you.Culture shock happens precisely because you cannot use your own culture as a map to guide your own behavior. and your own understanding of what surrounds you. You’re totally out of control, just as if you were driving along a highway in the dark, without a road map. And because of this, people often behave irrationally. It’s a highly stressful experience, and there are different symptom in different stages.【注释】这篇Spot Dictation难度适中，没有非常生僻的单词。

Answer the questions on each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on your ANSWER SHEET.Text 1Today there are three different kinds of New Yorkers: the people who act as if they were born here; the people who are here and wish to be elsewhere; and the collection of virtual New Yorkers all over the world, who wish they were living in New York. These are the three states of mind and what they have in common are longing and illusion. In fact, it' s a city of dreamers.What makes New York special? New Yorkers are convinced of its specialness--but Toronto is more diverse, London is larger, Washington is more powerful. So why does New York think it' s the capital of the world?People often explain the problems in European cities by citing inequality. But New York today is one of the most unequal cities in America. In 2010, 1 percent of New Yorkers earned 45 percent of its income. That works out to an average of $ 3.7 million a year for the city' s top 34,500households. The average daily income of this group is greater than the average annual income of the city's bottom 10 percent.So why would people still come to try their luck in this tough place? Is it opportunity or illusion that draws them?They come because any newcomer can find a place in the hierarchy of New York. If you look at a New York City restaurant, for example, the cook might be French, the people washing dishes might be Mexican, the hostess might be Russian, the owner might be British. They are not all equal. They earn different rates. But they work together to get food to hungry people.What New York demonstrates is this: immigration works. The city can use its immigrants, even the illegal ones. Though they broke the law by illegally crossing the borders, the city' s economy would be a shell of itself had they not, and it would collapse if they were deported. Attracted here by the founding myth of the city, each immigrant is seeking to escape from history, personal and political. For him, New York is the city of the second chance.46. The writer mentions the three kinds of New Yorkers to stress that_______.[ A ] they share the same longing [ B ] they are in pursuit of dreams[ C ] they are proud of their birthplace [ D ] they wish to live in another place47. In the eyes of New Yorkers, their city is______[ A ] powerful[ B ] diverse[ C ] special[ D ] large48. The figures in paragraph 3 are given to show that New York_________[ A ] favors the lucky [ B ] favors the locals[ C ] is a city of inequality [ D ] is a city of opportunities49. People keep coming to New York because they can find jobs that_______[ A ] challenge them [ B ] suit them well[ C ] pay them well [ D ] raise their status50. It is implied in the text that New York is_________[ A ] a tolerant city [ B ] a wealthy city[ C ] a mythical city [ D ] a historical cityText 2We' ve read how babies stare longer and cry less when held by pretty people, and heard tales of handsome children doing better in school, given special attention by their teachers. In life, as in love, beautiful people seem to have it awfully easy. But what if we told you that when it comes to online dating, good looks could actually hurt you?According to a recent survey of 43,000 users by OK Cupid, an online dating site, the more men disagree about a woman' s looks, the more they end up liking her. What does that mean for ladies looking for a match? " We now have mathematical evidence that minimizing your 'weaknesses' is the opposite of what you should do," says the site's co-founder, ChristianRudder. "If you' re a little fat, play it up. If you have a big nose, play it up. Statistically, the guys who don't like it can only help you, and the ones who do like it will be all the more excited. "The results of this study end up highlighting an idea that recent scientific research does indeed support. Which is this: the beautiful may have it good, but online, as in work and life, women who are too attractive don't always have an advantage.Beauty creates more competition--among women, taught they must out-look each other for men and jobs and everyday satisfaction; and among men, who are competing for the most attractive prize. All of which might help explain why 47 percent of corporate recruiters believe it' s possible for a woman to suffer for being "too good-looking" ; why attractive women tend to face heightened examination from their female peers; or, finally, why men on OK Cupid end up contacting women who may ultimately be less attractive--because it removes the opposition. "If you suspect other men are uninterested, it means less competition," explains Rudder. "You might start thinking: maybe she' s lonely.., maybe she' s just waiting to find a guy who appreciates her.., at least I won't get lost in the crowd. "In the end, being beautiful will always have its blessings--but sometimes, there' s more to an advantage than meets the eye.51. It is generally believed that beautiful people[ A] have less difficulty in life [ B ] are less worried about love[ C ] pay less attention to others [ D ] like to gaze at lovely babies52. The OK Cupid survey found that men' s arguments over a woman' s looks_____[A ] have little meaning [ B ] benefit online dating[ C ] will actually hurt her [ D ] add to her popularity53. Christian Rudder advises women to_______[ A] play up their physical advantages [ B ] view their popularity scientifically[ C ] highlight their physical weaknesses [ D ] accept guys who are willing to help54. The attitude of women toward their attractive peers is______[ A ] critical [ B ] friendly[ C ] conservative [ D ] straightforward55. The main idea of the text is that a woman' s good looks_______[ A ] help to shape ideas of beauty [ B ] can put her at a disadvantage[ C ] end up with blessings for her [ D ] will always appeal to the eyeText 3Camps have always reflected children's dreams and parents' fears. In the 1880s, many middle-class families worried that industrial society had broken off some tie to the frontier. Boys were growing soft: too much time with their mothers and teachers, not enough manly activity. So the early camps promised to take weakly boys out into camp life in the woods so that the pursuit of health could be combined with the practical knowledge.Those first campers were wilderness tourists; today a wilderness is anyplace without band-width. Allowing cell phone contradicts the point of sleep away camp: if 19th century campers were meant to regain lost survival skills, 21st century campers need to work on their social skill. They are often missing some basic interactive instruments; fantastically digitally aware, they are less familiar with the ideas of sharing their space, their stuff or the attention of the adults around them. For kids who are allowed to text during dinner, who have their parents whenever they get in trouble or need a ride, a little self-government is probably long overdue.Most camps require kids to leave their phones at home, which shows that the resistance often comes not from the kids but from parents. It's known that parents pack off their children with two cell phones, so they can hand over one and still be able to slip away and call. Parents question camp directors about why they can' t reach their kids by phone. Some services let camps post news and pictures to help the families feel as if they are with the kids at camp. But that just invites inquiry about why Johnny looks sad or how Jenny' s jeans got torn.Even as they yield in varying degrees to the demands of parents, camps endeavor to tell us our kids need a break from our eager interest and exhausting expectations. Camps talk about building independence, argue that having kids learn to solve their own problems and turn to peers and counselors for support is a key part of the experience. The implications are clear. They' re lighting campfires, hiding and seeking, doing things that feel wonderfully improper if just because they involve getting dirtier than usual. Nothing to worry about,Mom.56. The whole point of camp in the 19th century is to[ A] acquire the lost survival skills [ B ] escape from industrial society [ C ] enjoy beautiful natural scenery [ D ] explore the woods in the frontier57. For campers today, wilderness is where_____[ A ] they cannot use cell phones [ B ] they can realize their dreams [ C ] they stay far away from home [ D ] they are trained to be stronger58. According to the text, today' s kids are_______[ A] aware of governing themselves [ B ] skilled in social communication[ C ] good at using electronic devices [ D ] short of the attention from adults59. After seeing the posted news and pictures of their kids at camp, parents would feel______[ A ] curious[ B ] pleasant[ C ] relieved[ D ] worded60. As stated in the last paragraph, camps suggest parents______[ A ] take back their kids' cell phones [ B ] leave their kids alone for a while[ C ] let their kids have a rest from study [ D ] call their kids only when necessaryPart BDirections:Read the following texts in which five people wrote about being a vegetarian. For questions61-65, match the name of each person (61-65) to one of the statements (A-G) given below. Mark your answers on your ANSWER SHEET.Laurie:It is encouraging to see that, whether out of sympathy for animals or a concern for their own health or both, people are starting to realize that it does not pay to eat too far up on the food chain. Meat need not be what is for dinner. Factory farming is barbaric and cruel. Every person who reduces the use of animals in his life is performing a lifesaving act.Jeff:I am ready to be a vegetarian, but in our country, farmers, food producers, restaurants and supermarkets are not prepared to support me. We all know that it is much easier and less expensive to get a hamburger at McDonald' s or Chinese takeout or a roast chicken from the supermarket than it isto take the time to shop for, assemble and cook a tasty, nutritious and fulfilling vegetarian meal.Rod:I've heard another term for vegetarians: beady-eyed vegetarians. They' 11 eat things with beady eyes ( fish, chicken) but not with big, sad eyes ( cows, lambs). A friend of mine explained it by saying he would eat only things he thought he could kill himself. He figures he can kill a fish but not a cow. That seems like a more honest and consistent rationale than some of the others I' ve heard.Jerry:As a moral vegetarian, I have found that there is great misunderstanding about vegetarian principles in our society. While some vegetarians keep off animals as a matter of health, we moral vegetarians don' t want other animals to live for us, nor do we want other animals to die for us, as they do for food, clothing and wasteful scientific research. All animals live for their own sake, not for mine.Ellen:Why do some people think that animals and human beings are the same? In my opinion, a human life is worth a lot more than an animal' s. I think that wemust stop thinking of meat eaters as killers. Vegetarians also kill vegetable life. Is there any difference? Eat vegetables and meat; both help you to be healthy and allow you to have all the nutrients your bodies need.Now match the name of each person (61 to65) to the appropriate statement.Note: there are two extra statements.61. Laurie [ A] All animals have the right to live for themselves.62. Jeff [ B ] Some vegetarians in fact eat small-sized animals.63. Rod [ C ] Vegetarians need to do more to save animals' lives.64. Jerry [ D ] Some people have overstressed the rights of animals.65. Ellen [ E ] Vegetarians should be consistent in their eating habits.[ F] How can I become a vegetarian without a favorable environment?[G]Eating less meat saves not only the life of animals but also that ofyour own.SECTION Ⅳ Writing( 40 minutes)Directions:You should write your responses to both Part A and Part B of this section on your ANSWER SHEET.Part A66. Your friend Paul is coming to visit you next month. In his last email,he asked you about the interesting places in your hometown.
