新高考全国II卷英语高考真题及答案解析

2022新高考全国II卷英语高考真题及答案解析2022新高考全国II卷英语高考真题及解析高考英语阅读题解题方法1、记叙文(1)全文讲一个故事,只讲故事。

一般在A篇,如果短,就当看小说一样看下去,考验你词汇量的时候来了!看完以后一般就能选出来了,这里只是需要注意细节题看到类似于“——为什么要——”的题,就返回去,把那里的情节再细看一遍。

这样一篇3分钟必须搞定。

(2)半篇讲故事,半片议论。

一般会引申出一个道理,遇到这种题先把故事部分看完,用大概30秒想他要解释什么道理。

然后不看*了,看题。

只看题目不看选项,一般会有类似1的题目,马上选好,然后,看故事下面的那一段,只看一段,然后你大概就知道是什么道理了。

后面的题可能会是概括道理,猜词之类的题,比如,看到“——应该是下列的什么词”,你就翻回去看那个词,联系上下句,跳过那个词,自己想应该是什么,然后和四个选项比对。

具体题型后面讲。

(3)全篇在讲一件事,但不是有情节的故事。

这种*就先看开头一段,在直接看题,然后根据题目要求直接找有关的段落再看。

2、说明文(1)启事。

这种有点像广告,一般会讲一种活动之类的,*自己就会小标题分清。

这类是送分题。

(2)事物说明。

遇的一般是一件你没见过的东西的说明,比如谁谁谁发明的,为什么发明,用途之类的,这种题也不难,按顺序来,单词认识就OK。

(3)事件说明。

举个例子,二战时期某个战役的大概流程。

这种题考的一般是细节题,细心点就好。

3、议论文议论文其实没什么好讲的,主要就是一逻辑问题,能看懂就行。

下面还是讲一下做题方法吧。

4、做题方法(1)单词。

楼主一直在强调单词,这是砖瓦,是必备的。

高考3500绝对够用了,不是说限制你们,人往高处走嘛,但是,3500还不会,最基本的意思都没搞定就不要好高鹜远。

这里说的搞定是每个单词见了,你可以不会拼,但是像quite和quiet必须能分清,而且每一个意思必须都知道,翻译的时候也要会变通。

(2)句子。

Puzzle play was found to be a significant predictor of cognition(认知) after controlling for differences in parents’ income, education and the amount of parent talk, Levine said.The researchers analyzed video recordings of 53 child-parent pairs during everyday activities at home and found children who play with puzzles between 26 and 46 months of age have better spatial skills when assessed at 54 months of age.“The children who played with puzzles performed better than those who did not, on tasks that assessed their ability to rotate(旋转)and translate shapes,” Levine said in a statement.The parents were asked to interact with their children as they normally would, and about half of children in the study played with puzzles at one time. Higher-income parents tended to have children play with puzzles more frequently, and both boys and girls who played with puzzles had better spatial skills.

A teaching program.When you were trying to figure out what to buy for the environmentalist on your holiday list, fur probably didn’t cross your mind. But some ecologists and fashion (时装)enthusiasts are trying to bring back the market for fur made from nutria(海狸鼠).Unusual fashion shows in New Orleans and Brooklyn have(showcased)nutria fur made into clothes in different styles. “It sounds crazy to talk about guilt-free fur-unless you understand that the nutria are destroying vast wetlands every year”, says Cree McCree, project director of Righteous Fur.Scientists in Louisiana were so concerned that they decided to pay hunters $5 a tail. Some of the fur ends up in the fashion shows like the one in Brooklyn last month.Nutria were brought there from Argentina by fur farmers and let go into the wild. “The ecosystem down there can’t handle this non-native species(物种).It’s destroying the environment. It’s them or us.” says Michael Massimi, an expert in this field.The fur trade kept nutria check for decades,but when the market for nutria collapsed in the late 1980s,the cat-sized animals multiplied like crazy.Biologist Edmond Mouton runs the nutria control program for Louisiana. He says it’s not easy to convince people that nutria fur is green, but he has no doubt about it. Hunters bring in more than 300,000 nutria tails a year, so part of Mouton’s job these days is trying to promote fur.Then there’s Righteous Fur and its unusual fashion. Morgan says,”To give people a guilt-free option that they can wear without someone throwing paint on them-1 think that’s going to be a massive thing, at least here in New York.” Designer Jennifer Anderson admits it took her a while to come around to the opinion that using nutria fur for her creations is morally acceptable. She trying to come up with a lable to attach to nutria fashions to show it is eco-friendly.28. What is the purpose of the fashion shows in New Orleans and Brooklyn?A. To promote guilt-free fur.B. To expand the fashion market.C. To introduce a new brand.D. To celebrate a winter holiday.29. Why are scientists concerned about nutria?A. Nutria damage the ecosystem seriously.B. Nutria are an endangered species.C. Nutria hurt local cat-sized animals.D. Nutria are illegally hunted.30. What does the underlined word “collapsed” in paragraph 5 probably mean?A. Boomed.B. Became mature.C. Remained stable.D. Crashed.31. What can we infer abouf wearing fur in New York according to Morgan?A. It’s formal.B. It’s risky.C. It’s harmful.D. It’s traditional.I have a special place in my heart for libraries. I have for as long as I can remember.I was always an enthusiastic reader, sometimes reading up to three books a day as a child. Stories were like air to me and while other kids played ball or went to parties, I lived out adventures through the books I checked out from the library.My first job was working at the Ukiah Library when I was 16 years old .It was a dream job and I did everything from shelving books to reading to the children for story time.As I grew older and became a mother, the library took on a new place and an added meaning in my life. I had several children and books were our main source(来源) of entertainment. It was a big deal for us to load up and go to the local library, where my kids could pick out books to read or books they wanted me to read to them.I always read ,using different voices ,as though I were acting out the stories with my voice and they loved it !It was a special time to bond with my children and it filled them with the wonderment of books .Now, I see my children taking their children to the library and I love that the excitement of going to the library lives on form generation to generation.As a novelist, I’ve found a new relationship with libraries. I encourage readers to go to their local library when they can’t afford to purchase a book. I see libraries as a safe haven(避风港) for readers and writers, a bridge that helps put together a reader with a book. Libraries, in their own way, help fight book piracy(盗版行为) and 1 think all writers should support libraries in a significant way when they can. Encourage readers to use the library. Share library announcements on your social media. Frequent them and talk about them when you can.32. Which word best describes the author’s relationship with books as a child?A. Cooperative.B. Uneasy.C. Inseparable.D. Casual.33. What does the underlined phrase “an added meaning” in paragraph 3 refer to?A. Pleasure from working in the library.B. Joy of reading passed on in the family.C. Wonderment from acting out the stories.D A closer bond developed with the readers.34. What does the author call on other writers to do?A. Sponsor book fairs.B. Write for social media.C. Support libraries.D. Purchase her novels.35. Which can be a suitable title for the text?A. Reading: A Source of KnowledgeB. My Idea about writingC. Library: A Haven for the YoungD. My Love of the LibraryEmoji(表情符号) and Workplace CommunicationIn Asia, messaging platforms are growing rapidly, with users in the hundreds of millions, both at work and play. ___36___.

experiment?A.Parents’age.B.Children’s imagination.C.Parents’education.D.Child-parent relationship.26.How do boys differ from girls in puzzle play?A.They play with puzzles more often.B.They tend to talk less during the game.C.They prefer to use more spatial language.D.They are likely to play with tougher puzzles.27.What is the text mainly about?A.A mathematical method.B.A scientific study.C.A woman psychologistD.A teaching program.CWhen you were trying to figure out what to buy for the environmentalist on your holiday list,fur probably didn’t cross your mind.But some ecologists and fashion(时装)enthusiasts are trying to bring back the market for fur made from nutria(海狸鼠).Unusual fashion shows in New Orleans and Brooklyn have showcased nutria fur made into clothes in different styles.“It sounds crazy to talk about guilt-free fur—unless you understand that the nutria are destroying vast wetlands every year”,says Cree McCree,project director of Righteous Fur.Scientists in Louisiana were so concerned that they decided to pay hunters$5a tail.Some of the fur ends up in the fashion shows like the one in Brooklyn last month.Nutria were brought there from Argentina by fur farmers and let go into the wild.“The ecosystem down there can’t handle this non-native species(物种).It’s destroying the environment.It’s them or us,"says Michael Massimi,an expert in this field.The fur trade kept nutria in check for decades,but when the market for nutria collapsed in the late1980s,the cat-sized animals multiplied like crazy.Biologist Edmond Mouton runs the nutria control program for Louisiana.He says it’s not easy to convince people that nutria fur is green,but he has no doubt about it.Hunters bring in more than300,000nutria tails a year,so part of Mouton’s job these days is trying to promote fur.Then there’s Righteous Fur and its unusual fashion.Model Paige Morgan says,“To give people a guilt-free option that they can wear without someone throwing paint on them—I think that’s going to be a massive thing,at least here in New York.”Designer Jennifer Anderson admits it took her a while to come around to the opinion that using nutria fur for her creations is morally acceptable.She’s trying to come up with a label to attach to nutria fashions to show it is eco-friendly.28.What is the purpose of the fashion shows in New Orleans and Brooklyn?A.To promote guilt-free fur.B.To expand the fashion market.C.To introduce a new brand.D.To celebrate a winter holiday.29.Why are scientists concerned about nutria?A.Nutria damage the ecosystem seriously.B.Nutria are an endangered species.C.Nutria hurt local cat-sized animals.D.Nutria are illegally hunted.30.What does the underlined word“collapsed”in paragraph5 probably mean?A.Boomed.B.Became mature.C.Remained stable.D.Crashed.31.What can we infer about wearing fur in New York according to Morgan?A.It’s formal.B.It’s risky.C.It’s harmful.D.It’s traditional.DI have a special place in my heart for libraries.I have for as long as I can remember.I was always an enthusiastic reader,sometimes reading up to three books a day as a child.Stories were like air to me and while other kids played ball or went to parties,I lived out adventures through the books I checked out from the library.My first job was working at the Ukiah Library when I was16years old. It was a dream job and I did everything from shelving books to reading to the children for story time.As I grew older and became a mother,the library took on a new place and an added meaning in my life.I had several children and books were our main source(来源)of entertainment.It was a big deal for us to load up and go to the local library,where my kids could pick out books to read or books they wanted me to read to them.I always read,using different voices,as though I were acting out the stories with my voice and they loved it!It was a special time to bond with my children and it filled them with the wonderment of books.Now,I see my children taking their children to the library and I love that the excitement of going to the library lives on form generation to generation.As a novelist,I’ve found a new relationship with libraries.I encourage readers to go to their local library when they can’t afford to purchase a book.I see libraries as a safe haven(避风港)for readersand writers,a bridge that helps put together a reader with a book. Libraries,in their own way,help fight book piracy(盗版行为)and I think all writers should support libraries in a significant way when they can. Encourage readers to use the library.Share library announcements on your social media.Frequent them and talk about them when you can.32.Which word best describes the author’s relationship with books as a child?A.Cooperative.B.Uneasy.C.Inseparable.D.Casual.33.What does the underlined phrase“an added meaning”in paragraph3 refer to?A.Pleasure from working in the library.B.Joy of reading passed on in the family.C.Wonderment from acting out the stories.D.A closer bond developed with the readers.34.What does the author call on other writers to do?A.Sponsor book fairs.B.Write for social media.C.Support libraries.D.Purchase her novels.35.Which can be a suitable title for the text?A.Reading:A Source of KnowledgeB.My Idea about WritingC.Library:A Haven for the YoungD.My Love of the Library第二节(共5小题:每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Thats what I learnt from my new and special friend. On the first day of school our professor introduced himself and challenged us to get to know someone we didnt know.I looked around when a gentle hand touched my shoulder. I turned around to find a wrinkled, little old lady with a smile. She said, “Hi, handsome. My name is Rose, Im eighty-seven years old. Can I give you a hug?” I laughed and enthusiastically responded, “Of course you may!” She gave me a giant squeeze. “Why are you in college at such a young. Innocent age?” I asked jokingly. “I always dreamed of having a college education and now Im getting one!” she replied. After class we walked to the Students Union building and shared a chocolate milkshake there. We became instant friends.Every day of the next three months we would leave class together and talk nonstop. I was always listening to this “time machine” as she shared her wisdom and experience with me. Over the course of the year, Rose became a campus icon and she easily made friends whenever she went. At the endof the semester we invited Rose to speak at our football dinner. Ill never forget what she taught us.“There is a huge difference between growing older and growing up. Anybody can grow old. That doesnt take any talent or ability. The idea is to grow up by always finding opportunities in change. Have no regrets. The elderly usually dont have regrets for what we did, but rather for things we did not do. The only people who fear death are those with regrets.”She concluded her speech by courageously singing The Song of Rose. She challenged each of us to study the lyrics(歌词)and live them out in our daily life. At the years end, Rose finished the college degree she had begun all those years ago. One week after graduation Rose died peacefully in her sleep.24.What happened to the author on the first day of school?A.He joined the Student Union.B.He got to know an old professor.C.He made the acquaintance of an old lady.D.He had to share a milkshake with others.25.From the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2, we can find out the authors .A.respect for the oldB.concern about ageC.curiosity about the ladyplaint about education26.In the authors eyes, .A.Rose was silent and skilled.B.Rose was talented and hardworking.C.Rose was innocent and generous.D.Rose was courageous and her words were inspiring.27.Which saying might Rose possibly support?A.Rome was not built in a day..B.One is never too old to learn.C.It is no use crying over spilt milk.D.Great minds think alike.CMoney is the root of all evil and new study claims there may be some truth behind the saying.Scientists at the University ofCalifornia.Berkeley, US,announced on February 27 that rich people are more likely to do unethical (不道德的)things.such as lie or cheat,than poorer people.The scientists did a series of eight experiments.They published their findings online in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.They carried out the first two experiments from the sidewalk near Berkeley.They noted that drivers of newer and more expensive cars were more likely to cut off other cars and pedestrians at crosswalks.Nearly 45 percent of people driving expensive cars ignored a pedestrian compared with only 30 percent of people driving more modest cars.In another experiment,a group of college students was asked if they would do unethical things in various everyday situations.Examples included taking printer paper from work and not telling a salesperson when he or she gave back more change.Students from higher-class families were more likely to act dishonestly.According to the scientists,rich people often think money call get them out of trouble.This makes them less afraid to take risks.It also means they care less about other peoples feelings.Finally,it simply makes them greedier.“Higher wealth status seems to make you want even more,and that increased want leads you to bend the rules or break the rules to serve your self-interest,”said Paul Piff, lead scientist of the study.Piff pointed out that the findings dont mean that all rich people are untrustworthy or all poor people honest.He said the experiments were to show how people living in different social situations express their instincts and values in different ways.28.By saying “money is the root of all evil”, the author wants to .A.draw readers attention to the researchB.1ink wealth with bad behaviorC.show how the saying proves the findingsD.defend rich people who do unethical things29.What makes rich people unethical according to the scientists7.a.they become more selfishb.they have more desiresc.they believe money talksd.they welcome risksA.a、bB.a、b、dC.b、cD.a、b、c30.Why did the scientists do the experiments?A.To show how social status affects peoples ethics.B.To show peoples instincts and values in different ways.C.To test whether the saying “money is the root of all evil” is true.D.To show the difference between higher-class people and lower-class people.31.What does the article really want to show us?A.Money is the root of all evil.B.The rich are more likely to act badly.C.The saying is reasonable.D.All rich people are untrustworthy.DThere is a popular belief among parents that schools are no longer interested in spelling. No school I have taught in has ever ignored spelling or considered it unimportant as a basic skill. There are, however, different ideas about how to teach it, or how much priority it must be given over general language development and writing ability. The problem is how to encourage a child to express himself freely and confidently in writing without holding him back with the complexities of spelling.If spelling becomes the only focal point of his teachers interest, clearly a bright child will be likely to “play safe”. He will tend to write only words within his spelling range, choosing to avoid adventurous language. Thats why teachers often encourage the early use of dictionaries and pay attention to content rather than technical ability.I was once shocked to read on the bottom of a sensitive piece of writing about a personal experience: “This work is terrible! There are far too many spelling errors and your writing is terrible.” It may have been a sharp criticism of the pupils technical abilities in writing, but it was also a sad reflection on the teacher who had omitted to read the essay, which contained some beautiful expressions of the childs deep feelings. The teacher was not wrong to draw attention to the errors, but if his priorities had centered on the childs ideas, an expression of his disappointment with the presentation would have given the pupil more motivation to seek improvement.32.Teachers are different in their opinions about _________.A.the difficulties in teaching spellingB.the necessity of teaching spellingC.the complexities of the basic writing skillsD.the role of spelling in general language development33.The underlined expression “play safe” probably means “________”.A.to write carefullyB.to avoid using words one is not sure ofC.to use dictionaries frequentlyD.to do as teachers say34.Teachers encourage the use of dictionaries so that ________.A.students will have less trouble in correcting mistakesB.students will have more confidence in writingC.students will be able to express their ideas more freelyD.students will learn to be independent of teachers35.The major point discussed in the passage is _______.A.the relationship between spelling and the content of a compositionB.the importance of developing writing skillsC.the correct way of marking compositionsD.the complexities of spelling第二节(共5小题:每小题2分,满分10分)When you live in America, it is not uncommon to see many children coming home from school to an empty house. 36 Some may hide.But all of them have something in common. They spend part of each day alone. They are called latchkey children. Theyre children who look after themselves while their parents work. 37Kate Green was one of the headmasters of an elementary school. She said, “We had a school rule against wearing jewelry. A lot of kids had chains around their necks with keys attached. I was constantly tellingthem to put them inside skirts. There were so may keys. It never came to my mind what they meant.” 38 .She and her husband began talking to the children. They offered the suggestion: 39 One in every three latchkey children the Greens talked to once reported being scared. Many had nightmares and were womied about their own safety.The most common way latchkey children deal with their fears is by hiding. 40 The second is TV. Theyll often play it at high volume. Its hard to get statistics on latchkey children. Most parents are slow to admit they leave their children alone.A.Slowly, she learned they were house keys.B.But they dont mindC.Some deal with the situation by watching TVD.Fear is the biggest problem faced by children at home alone.E.Some should go to their friends for safety.F.And their bad condition has become a subject of concern.G.It might be in a shower stall, under a bed or in a closet.第三部分英语知识运用(共两节,满分45分)第一节完形填空(共20小题:每小题1.5分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每小题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

When will Charlotte Stone perform her songsA. B. -.C. D. Five years ago, when I taught art at a school in Seattle, I used Tinkertoys as a test at the beginning of a term to find out something about my students. I put a small set of Tinkertoys in front of each student, and said:”M ake something out of the Tinkertoys. You have 45 minutes today - and 45minutes each day for the rest of the week.”A few students hesitated to start. They waited to see the rest of the class would do. Several others checked the instructions and made something according to one of the model plans provided. Another group built something out of their own imaginations.Once I had a boy who worked experimentally with Tinkertoys in his free time. His constructions filled a shelf in the art classroom and a good part of his bedroom at home. I was delighted at the presence of such a student. Here was an exceptionally creative mind at work. His presence meant that I had an unexpected teaching assistant in class whose creativity would infect(感染) other students.Encouraging this kind of thinking has a downside. I ran the risk of losing those students who had a different style of thinking. Without fail one would declare, ” But I’m just not creative.”“Do you dream at night when you’re asleep”“Oh, sure.”“So tell me one of your most interesting dreams.” The student would tell something wildly imaginative.

Think of the people who belong to book groups. They choose books to read and then meet to discuss them. Now, the website turns the page on the traditional idea of a book group.Members go on the site and register the books they own and would like to share. BookCrossing provides an identification number to stick inside the book. Then the person leaves it in a public place, hoping that the book will have an adventure, traveling far and wide with each new reader who finds it.Bruce Pederson, the managing director of BookCrossing, says, “The two things that change your life are the people you meet and books you read. BookCrossing combines both.”Members leave books on park benches and buses, in train stations and coffee shops. Whoever finds their book will go to the site and record where they found it.People who find a book can also leave a journal entry describing what they thought of it. E-mails are then sent to the BookCrossing to keep them updated about where their books have been found. Bruce peterson says the idea is for people not to be selfish by keeping a book to gather dust on a shelf at home.BookCrossing is part of a trend among people who want to get back to the “real” and not the virtual(虚拟). The site now has more than one million members in more than one hundred thirty-five countries.29. Why does the author mention book groups in the first paragraphA. To explain what they are.B.

A Website Links People through BooksDA new collection of photos brings an unsuccessful Antarctic voyage back to life.Frank Hurley’s pictures would be outstanding----undoubtedly first-rate photo-journalism---if they had been made last week. In fact, they were shot from 1914 through 1916, most of them after a disastrous shipwreck(海滩), by a cameraman who had no reasonable expectation of survival. Many of the images were stored in an ice chest, under freezing water, in the damaged wooden ship.The ship was the Endurance, a small, tight, Norwegian-built three-master that was intended to take Sir Ernest Shackleton and a small crew of seamen and scientists, 27 men in all, to the southernmost shore of Antarctica’s Weddell Sea. From that point Shackleton wanted to force a passage by dog sled(雪橇) across the continent. The journey was intended to achieve more than what Captain Robert Falcon Scott had done. Captain Scott had reached the South Pole early in 1912 but had died with his four companions on the march back.As writer Caroline Alexander makes clear in her forceful and well-researched story The Endurance, adventuring was even then a thoroughly commercial effort. Scott’s last journey, completed as h e lay in a tent dying of cold and hunger, caught the world’s imagination, and a film made in his honor drew crowds. Shackleton, a onetime British merchant-navy officer who had got to within 100 miles of the South Pole in 1908, started a business before his 1914 voyage to make money from movie and still photography. Frank Hurley, a confident and gifted Australian photographer who knew the Antarctic, was hired to make the images, most of which have never before been published.33.
