超实用高考英语冲刺复习:写作第一节考前冲刺练(其他文体+图表图画式)- 三年真题研读暨考前冲刺练

写作第一节考前冲刺练(其他文体+图表图画式)-决战新高考距离高考还有一段时间,不少有经验的老师都会提醒考生,愈是临近高考,能否咬紧牙关、学会自我调节,态度是否主动积极,安排是否科学合理,能不能保持良好的心态、以饱满的情绪迎接挑战,其效果往往大不一样。

以下是本人从事10多年教学经验总结出的以下学习资料,希望可以帮助大家提高答题的正确率,希望对你有所帮助,有志者事竟成!养成良好的答题习惯,是决定高考英语成败的决定性因素之一。

做题前,要认真阅读题目要求、题干和选项,并对答案内容作出合理预测;答题时,切忌跟着感觉走,最好按照题目序号来做,不会的或存在疑问的,要做好标记,要善于发现,找到题目的题眼所在,规范答题,书写工整;答题完毕时,要认真检查,查漏补缺,纠正错误。

总之,在最后的复习阶段,学生们不要加大练习量。

在这个时候,学生要尽快找到适合自己的答题方式,最重要的是以平常心去面对考试。

英语最后的复习要树立信心,考试的时候遇到难题要想“别人也难”,遇到容易的则要想“细心审题”。

越到最后,考生越要回归基础,单词最好再梳理一遍,这样有利于提高阅读理解的效率。

另附高考复习方法和考前30天冲刺复习方法。

Week 4 TuesdayTask 1:阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。

(2015·浙江,B)Graphs can be a very useful tool for conveying information,especially numbers,percentages,and other data.A graph gives the reader a picture to interpret.That can be a lot more efficient than pages and pages explaining the data.Graphs can seem frightening,but reading a graph is a lot like reading a story.The graph has a title,a main idea,and supporting details.You can use your active reading skills to analyze and understand graphs just like any other text.Most graphs have a few basic parts:a caption or introduction paragraph,a title,a legend or key,and labeled axes.An active reader looks at each part of the graph before trying to interpret the data.Captions will usually tell you where the data came from (for example,a scientific study of 400 African elephants from 1980 to 2005).Captions usually summarize the author’s main point as well.The title is very important.It tells you the main idea of the graph by stating what kind of information is being shown.A legend,also called a key,is a guide to the symbols and colors used in the graph.Manygraphs,including bar graphs and line graphs,havetwo axes that form a ually these axes arethe left side and the bottom of the graph.Each axiswill always have a label.The label tells you whateach axis measures.Bar GraphsA bar graph has two axes and uses bars to show amounts.In Graph 1,we see that the x-axis shows grades that students earned,and the y-axis shows how many students earned each grade.You can see that 6 students earned an A because the bar for A stretches up to 6 on the vertical measurement.There is a lot of information we can get from a simple graph like this (See Graph 1).Line GraphsA line graph looks similar to a bargraph,but instead of bars,it plots pointsand connects them with a line.It has the sameparts as a bar graph—two labeled axes—andcan be read the same way.To read a linegraph,it’s important to focus on the pointsof intersection rather than the line segments between the points.This type of graph is most commonly used to show how something changes over time.Here is a graph that charts how far a bird flies during the first five days of its spring migration (See Graph 2).The unit of measurement for the x-axis is days.The unit of measurement for the y-axis is kilometers.Thus we can see that,on the first day,the pipit flew 20 kilometers.The line segment goes up between Day 1 and Day 2,which means that the bird flew farther on Day 2.If the line segment angled down,as between Day 4 and Day 5,it would mean that the bird flew fewer kilometers than the day before.This line graph is a quick,visual way to tell the reader about the bird’s migration.Pie GraphsA typical pie graph looks like a circular pie.Thecircle is divided into sections,and each sectionrepresents a fraction of the data.The graph is commonlyused to show percentages;the whole pie represents 100percent,so each piece is a fraction of the whole.A pie graph might include a legend,or it might useicons or labels within each slice.This pie graph shows one month’s expenses (See Graph 3).Food 25Movies 12Clothing 36Savings 20Books 7【语篇解读】 本文介绍了图表的结构和用途,并举例加以说明。

(2015·福建,A)Food festivals around the worldStilton Cheese RollingMay Day is a traditional day for celebrations,but the 2,000 English villagers of Stilton must be the only people in the world who include cheese rolling in their annual plans.Teams of four,dressed in a variety of strange and funny clothes,roll a complete cheese along a 50-metre course.On the way,they must not kick or throw their cheese,or go into their competitors’lane(赛道).Competition is fierce and the chief prize is a complete Stilton cheese weighing about four kilos (disappointingly,but understandably the cheeses used in the race are wooden ones).All the competitors are served with beer or port wine,the traditional accompaniment for Stilton cheese.Fiery Foods Festival—The Hottest Festival on EarthEvery year more than 10,000 people head for the city of Albuquerque,New Mexico.They come from as far away as Australia,the Caribbean and China,but they all share a common addiction—food that is not just spicy(辛辣),but hot enough to make your mouth burn,your head spin and your eyes water.Their destination is the Fiery Food and BBQ Festival which is held over a period of three days every March.You might like to try a chocolate-covered habanero pepper—officially the hottest pepper in the world—or any one of the thousands of products that are on show.But one thing’s for sure—if you don’t like the feeling of a burning tongue,this festival isn’t for you!La Tomatina—The World’s Biggest Food FightOn the last Wednesday of every August,the Spanish town of Buñol hostsLa Tomatina—the world’s largest food fight.A week-long celebration leads up to an exciting tomato battle as the highlight of the week’s events.The early morning sees the arrival of large trucks with tomatoes—official fight-starters get things going by casting tomatoes at the crowd.The battle lasts little more than half an hour,in which time around 50,000 kilograms of tomatoes have been thrown at anyone or anything that moves,runs,or fights back.Then everyone heads down to the river to make friends again—and for a much-needed wash!【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。

阅读理解议论文考点1 人与自我型议论文【2021新课标I卷】Popularization has in some cases changed the original meaning of emotional (情感的) intelligence. Many people now misunderstand emotional intelligence as almost everything desirable in a person’s makeup that cannot be measured by an IQ test, such as character, motivation, confidence, mental stability, optimism and “people skills.” Research has shown that emotional skills may contribute to some of these qualities, but most of them move far beyond skill-based emotional intelligence.We prefer to describe emotional intelligence as a specific set of skills that can be used for either good or bad purposes. The ability to accurately understand how others are feeling may be used by a doctor to find how best to help her patients, while a cheater might use it to control potential victims. Being emotionally intelligent does not necessarily make one a moral person.Although popular beliefs regarding emotional intelligence run far ahead of what research can reasonably support, the overall effects of the publicity have been more beneficial than harmful. The most positive aspect of this popularization is a new and much needed emphasis (重视) on emotion by employers, educators and othersinterested in promoting social well-being. The popularization of emotional intelligence has helped both the public and researchers re-evaluate the functionality of emotions and how they serve people adaptively in everyday life.Although the continuing popular appeal of emotional intelligence is desirable, we hope that such attention will excite a greater interest in the scientific and scholarly study of emotion. It is our hope that in coming decades, advances in science will offer new perspectives (视角) from which to study how people manage their lives. Emotional intelligence, with its focus on both head and heart, may serve to point us in the right direction.32. What is a common misunderstanding of emotional intelligenceA. It can be measured by an IQ test.B. It helps to exercise a person's mind.C. It includes a set of emotional skills.D. It refers to a person’s positive qualities.33. Why does the author mention “doctor” and “cheater” in paragraph 2A. To explain a rule.B. To clarify a concept.C. To present a fact.D. To make a prediction.34. What is the author's attitude to the popularization of emotional intelligenceA. Favorable.B. Intolerant.C. Doubtful.D. Unclear.35. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about concerning emotional intelligenceA. Its appeal to the public.B. Expectations for future studies.C. Its practical application.D. Scientists with new perspectives.【答案】322-35 DBAB【导读】本文是一篇议论文。

高考英语专项复习阅读理解《新闻报道及其他》十年真题汇总含答案
The Socrates Expressisa fun, sharp bookthat draws readers in with its apparent simplicity and gradually pulls them in deeper thoughts on desire, loneliness, and aging. The invitation is clear: Weiner wants you to pick up a coffee or tea and sit down with this book. I encourage you to take his offer. It’s worth your time, even if time is something we don’t have a lot of.
Weiner starts each chapter with a scene on a train ride between cities and then frames each philosopher’s work in the context (背景) of one thing they can help us do better. The end result is a read in which we learn to wonder like Socrates, see like Thoreau, listen like Schopenhauer, and have no regrets like Nietzsche. This, more than a book about understanding philosophy, is a book abour learning to use philosophy to improve a life.

(2015·湖南,A)Forget Cyclists,Pedestrians Are Real DangerWe are having a debate about this topic.Here are some letters from our readers.■Yes,many cyclists behave dangerously.Many drivers are disrespectful of cyclists.But pedestrians are probably the worse offenders.People of all ages happily walk along the pavement with eyes and hands glued to the mobile phone,quite unaware of what is going on around them.They may even do the same thing while crossing a road at a pedestrian crossing or elsewhere.The rest of us have to evade (避让) them or just stand still to wait for the unavoidable collision.The real problem is that some pedestrians seem to be,at least for the moment,in worlds of their own that are,to them,much more important than the welfare of others.—Michael Horan■I loved the letter from Bob Brooks about cyclists (Viewpoints, May29).I am afraid they seem to think they own the roads.I was walking across Altrincham Road one morning when a cyclist went round me and on being asked what he was doing he shouted at me.The government built a cycle lane on the road but it is hardly used.The police do nothing.What a laugh they are!The cyclists should all have to be made to use the cycle lanes and wear helmets,fluorescent (发荧光的) jackets and lights at night and in the morning.They should pay some sort of tax and be fined for not wearing them.—Carol Harvey■Cyclists jump on and off pavements (which are meant for pedestrians),ride at speed along the pavements,and think they have a special right to go through traffic lights when they are on red.I was almost knocked down recently by a cyclist riding on the pavement when there was a cycle lane right next to him.Other road users,including horse riders,manage to obey the rules so why not cyclists?It's about time they had to be registered and insured,so when they do hit a pedestrian or a vehicle,or cause an accident,at least they can be traced and there might be an opportunity to claim.—JMLWrite to Viewpoints of the newspaper.【语篇解读】在路上谁是最大的危险。

这一章我们讲解英文中很重要的动词变化形式--三种非谓语动词形式,即动词不定式(to do),动名词(doing)和两种分词(现在分词doing和过去分词done)。

他们的作用和特点简介如下:不定式,即“不一定是什么词性的成分”,可当作名词,形容词,和副词来使用.因此,不定式在句中能够充当除了谓语以外的任何其他成分。

动名词,相当于名词。

因此,在句中主要充当:主语、宾语和表语分词,相当于形容词和副词。

因此,在句中主要充当:定语、状语和补足语,非谓语动词作句中成分是他们非动词特征的体现,这是我们的学习的重点非谓语动词作为动词的一种变化形式,仍保留有动词的特征,比如有自己的主语,有时态和语态的变化.因此,掌握非谓语动词的三个重点是:句子成分,时态和语态的变化,逻辑主语【课前检测】1.[2020全国I,66] Chinese researchers hope to use the instruments onboard Change4_______( find) and study areas of the South Pole-Aitken basin.2.[2020全国Ⅱ,63]They represent the earth ______(come) back to life and best wishes for new beginnings.3.[2020全国Ⅱ,68]They are easy ________( care) for and make great presents.4.[2020 浙江,60]Agriculture gave people their first experience of the power of technology( change) lives.5.[2020天津,14] The dancer's incredible performance had the audience on its feet_______( clap) for 10 minutes at the end of the show.6.[2020北京,8]A piece of stone_______(find) on a Dutch beach suggests that our extinct human relatives, known as Neanderthals, were cleverer than previously thought.7.[2020浙江1月,60]The first is declining birth rates, which means old generations are large______( compare) to younger generations , and so, on average, the population becomes older than before.8.[2019全国Ⅲ,70] On the last day of our week-long stay , we were invited to attend a private concert on a beautiful farm on the North Shore under the stars ,________( listen) to musicians and meeting interesting locals.9.[2019天津,4]_________( learn) to think critically is an important skill today's children will need for the future.10.[2018 全国I,63]You may drink, smoke, be overweight and still reduce your risk of______( die) early by running.11.[2018全国,64] Another reason for corn's rise: The government encourages farmers to grow corn instead of rice_________( improve)water quality.12.[2020全国【改错]My mom told me how to preparing it.13.[2019全国I改错]All the football players on the playground cheered loudly , say that I had a talent for football.14.[2018 全国【改错]My grandpa said last summer they earned quite a lot by sell the fish.课中讲解一、定义不充当句中谓语的动词叫作非谓语动词。

2025届高考英语专项复习 非谓语动词 2020-2024高考真题专练(原卷版+解析版)

非谓语动词第一部分:动词不定式考点一:考查动词不定式短语作目的状语1.(2024新课标I卷)The design features ten steel “sepals (萼片)” made of glass and aluminium (铝). These sepals open on warm days 58 (give) the inside plants sunshine and fresh air.答案:to give考查非谓语动词。

句意:温室在温暖的日子里开放,利用液压系统为内部植物提供阳光和通风。

use sth. to do sth.为固定搭配,表示“使用某物去做某事”,所以空处应用动词不定式形式作宾语补足语。

故填to give。

2.(2024九省联考卷)He knows that computers are here (stay) and that they will not disappear.答案: to stay解析:考查非谓语动词。

句意:他知道电脑会一直存在,不会消失。

be here to stay是一个固定短语,表示“固定下来; 普遍认可; 成为风尚”。

故填to stay。

3.(2024浙江1月卷)The shelves in most supermarkets are full of family-size this and multi-buy that. However, if you’re shopping for one, buying extra (benefit) from price reductions doesn’t make sense.答案: to benefit【解析】考查动词不定式。

句意:然而,如果你是想买一件,那么多买一件来享受降价是没有意义的。

根据“buying extra”和“from price reductions”可知,此处是指多买一件来享受降价,所以应用to do不定式作目的状语。

真题研练68Task 1:阅读下列材料,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。

(2015·浙江,C)If humans were truly at home under the light of the moon and stars,we would go in darkness happily,the midnight world as visible to us as it is to the vast number of nocturnal(夜间活动的) species on this planet.Instead,we are diurnal creatures,with eyes adapted to living in the sun's light.This is a basic evolutionary fact,even though most of us don't think of ourselves as diurnal beings.Yet it's the only way to explain what we've done to the night:We've engineered it to receive us by filling it with light.The benefits of this kind of engineering come with consequences—called light pollution—whose effects scientists are only now beginning to study.Light pollution is largely the result of bad lighting design,which allows artificial light to shine outward and upward into the sky.Ill­designed lighting washes out the darkness of night and completely changes the light levels—and light rhythms—to which many forms of life,including ourselves,have adapted.Wherever human light spills into the natural world,some aspect of life is affected.In most cities the sky looks as though it has been emptied of stars,leaving behind a vacant haze (霾) that mirrors our fear of the dark.We've grown so used to this orange haze that the original glory of an unlit night—dark enough for the planet Venus to throw shadows on Earth—is wholly beyond our experience,beyond memory almost.We've lit up the night as if it were an unoccupied country,when nothing could be further from the truth.Among mammals alone,the number of nocturnal species is astonishing.Light is a powerful biological force,and on many species it acts as a magnet(磁铁).The effect is so powerful that scientists speak of songbirds and seabirds being “captured” by searchlights on land or by the light from gas flares on marine oil platforms.Migrating at night,birds tend to collide with brightly lit tall buildings.Frogs living near brightly lit highways suffer nocturnal light levels that are as much as a million times brighter than normal,throwing nearly every aspect of their behavior out of joint,including their nighttime breeding choruses.Humans are no less trapped by light pollution than the frogs.Like most other creatures,we do need darkness.Darkness is as essential to our biological welfare,to our internal clockwork,as light itself.Living in a glare of our own making,we have cut ourselves off from our evolutionary and cultural heritage—the light of the stars and the rhythms of day and night.In a veryreal sense,light pollution causes us to lose sight of our true place in the universe,to forget the scale of our being,which is best measured against the dimensions of a deep night with the Milky Way—the edge of our galaxy—arching overhead.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。

现如今人类使夜晚充满了人造光线,使得夜晚不再黑暗,但这么做所造成的光污染的不好影响是巨大的,到了考虑这么做的后果的时候了。

1.According to the passage,human beings ________.A.prefer to live in the darknessB.are used to living in the day lightC.were curious about the midnight worldD.had to stay at home with the light of the moon答案 B [细节理解题。

根据第一段中的“Instead,we are diurnal creatures,with eyes adapted to living in the sun's light.”可知,我们人类是白天活动的动物,习惯了在日光下生活。

故答案为B。

]2.What does “it” (Paragraph 1) most probably refer to?A.The night. B.The moon.C.The sky. D.The planet.答案 A [代词指代题。

it是代词,指代前面提到的事物,而前面提到的是night,指用来照亮黑夜。

]3.The writer mentions birds and frogs to ________.A.provide examples of animal protectionB.show how light pollution affects animalsC.compare the living habits of both speciesD.explain why the number of certain species has declined答案 B [目的意图题。

第三段谈到了光污染,后面的段落是对光污染影响的详细说明,作者以鸟和青蛙为例来说明光污染对动物的影响。

]4.It is implied in the last paragraph that ________.A.light pollution does harm to the eyesight of animalsB.light pollution has destroyed some of the world heritagesC.human beings cannot go to the outer spaceD.human beings should reflect on their position in the universe答案 D [推理判断题。

根据最后一段中的“In a very real sense,light pollution causes us to lose sight of our true place in the universe...”可推断出,我们人类应该反思我们所在宇宙中的身份地位。

]5.What might be the best title for the passage?A .The Magic Light.B .The Orange Haze.C .The Disappearing Night.D .The Rhythms of Nature.答案 C [标题归纳题。

整篇文章都在说明光污染给生物带来的巨大影响,本来是宁静、舒适的夜晚也被人类设计的灯光所影响。
