2023高考英语二轮复习阅读理解专题讲和练——记叙文(含解析)

2023高考英语二轮复习阅读理解专题讲和练——记叙文(含解析)

2023高考英语二轮复习:阅读理解专题记叙文记叙文是一种记载和叙述事件由来,描绘事物和人物情景状态、过程及发展的文体。

高考英语阅读理解中的记叙文类文章一般包括人物传记、哲理或故事等。

人物传记类文章描述某个人的生平事迹、奋斗历程;故事类文章通过一个小故事,说明一个道理。

一、考情分析通常一套卷有一篇记叙文,个别试卷选用两篇记叙文。

所选的记叙文多以第一人称或第三人称为主,讲述一个短小精悍、有教育意义的故事,有时也会选用生活中的轶闻趣事。

所讲述的故事题材丰富多样、富有生活气息,多按时间顺序叙述,偶尔也会有倒叙或插叙的情形。

从命题上看,记叙文阅读理解以细节理解题和推理判断题为主,以观点态度题、写作意图题、词义猜测题和代词指代题为辅,难度总体上属于中等程度。

记叙文阅读理解题要求考生能理清记叙的顺序与所讲故事的情节,能准确把握人物的情感态度和作者的写作目的。

二、文体特点与阅读策略1. 语言与结构特点英语记叙文以描写叙述为主,主要描写人物、事件、地点或过程。

其特点是:主题往往隐藏在字里行间,没有直接地表达出来;文章主旨要通过人物、事件来进行提炼;文章大多按时间跨度、空间顺序、上下顺序来展开。

阅读记叙文应采取略读和扫读的方法,快速抓住文中描写的主要内容,从整体上把握文章的连贯性,进而大体上揣测出作者的写作意图及文章的情感主线。

2. 答题误区记叙文阅读理解题的易错点往往在多个事件的先后顺序与人物的情感态度上。

解题时,一方面要依据文章的顺序和故事的发展弄清一系列事件的先后顺序以及它们之间的逻辑关系,必要时可以对时间和事件进行排序;另一方面,还要根据人物的处境和描写、议论时所用的特定词语来准确把握人物的情感与态度,做到入情入境,特别要留意描写和议论时所用的形容词和副词。

3. 阅读策略在做阅读理解题时,首先要通读全文,弄清六要素和记叙的顺序,特别要注意文章中提到的多个时间、地点和人物,理清事件的起因、经过和结果;然后阅读题干,在文章中查找相关的信息;最后根据查找到的相关信息作出正确的选择。

高考英语阅读理解记叙文练习题含答案(2023春·河南郑州·高一郑州外国语学校校考阶段练习)Today was my first day at senior high and it was hard. In high school, you have 4 minutes to get to your next class. My high school is very big and the 4 minutes to go from one class to another isn’t really a lot of time even for a quick boy like me. Today, I had to go from one end of the building to the other to get from science class to math class. I wanted to go to my locker first and leave my science book there, but that took time. I was worried about being late, and I was. The math teacher said, “Just be on time tomorrow, or you’ll have detention(放学后留校).”After math, I went to art class. I like my art class a lot because I get to create things. The teacher showed us how to make portraits (肖像). He explained, “A portrait is a way of communicating with a person. It does not just show how the person looks but what is important to understand the person.” We just did drawings today, but I know it’s going to be great. I like drawing.I like my English class, too. I think the teacher is really supportive. Today, we wrote about ourselves. The teacher asked us to just write what we thought, and we would pay attention to punctuation(标点符号) later. We could write a paragraph or a poem, and I wrote a poem about myself. I thought it was a good one, and the teacher said I had used good images to communicate my feelings.Lunch was very hurried. I arrived at the dining room with 12 minutes to eat. I sat with students I didn’t know, and everyone was eating quickly. After lunch, I signed up for a computer club.

At night, the 26-year-old young man, taking off his helmet (头盔) and blue jacket, dives into small theaters where he is going to use stand-up comic sets inspired by his personal stories as a deliveryman to make people laugh.In 2019, he found that running errands can bring him a good income. Then he moved from his hometown to Xi’an, and became a deliveryman. He turned all the hardships he has been going through these years into funny jokes, which brings a refreshing life. For him, the skill of humor is not something he was born with, but what he has been diligently (勤奋地) training with his sincerity and eagerness to get a better life.On a freezing winter night, he stopped for a while in a bar after finishing the errands and heard rounds of cheers and laughs coming from the bar, and he was told that it was an open-mic event for stand-up comedy (脱口秀) . He was crazy with the joyous atmosphere into which he wanted to get himself integrated. The club owner later sent him a guidebook for stand-up comedy and gave him a chance to go on stage. His performance attracted wider attention and he received an invitation from the Shanghai-based comedy company Xiaoguo Culture to join a comic training camp last year. It was his first time to take a plane and get out from Shanxi province. He soon found that Shanghai offers more opportunities for stand-up comedy performers.In October, he moved to the city. There, he still chose to be a deliveryman and put on comic performances for four or five times a week. For him, what’s special about the comic form is its inclusiveness (包容性). “It welcomes people from all walks of life and varied backgrounds to share stories and express opinions on the same stage,” he says.5.What does Zhao Dong want to do by using the stand-up comic sets?A.To introduce his personal stories.B.To build up his confidence to be a deliveryman.C.To provide more sources of amusement for people.D.To help himself to adapt to his new job as soon as possible.6.What does the underlined word “integrated” mean in paragraph 3?A.includedB.interestedC.injuredD.investigated7.What can we learn about the deliveryman from paragraph 3?A.He left Shanghai by plane for the first time.B.He found his stand-up comedy career may take off in Shanghai.C.He put on some performances to attract people’s attention.D.He rejected the invitation from a Shanghai-based comedy company.8.What is the text mainly about?A.How a deliveryman earns a lot of money.B.How a deliveryman puts on performance on the street.C.How a deliveryman shares stories with all walks of life.D.How a deliveryman finds a new role with a sense of humor.(2022秋·四川绵阳·高一四川省绵阳江油中学校考阶段练习)In Woods Chan’s class at a high school in California, students chat with each other in Spanish, Arabic (阿拉伯语) and Mam, a Mayan language from Guatemala. The students have only been in the US for a few weeks or months. Many students were from different countries last year. Woods Chan became concerned when she started hearing the Spanish-speaking students laugh when their classmates spoke Mam or Arabic.Woods Chan came up with an idea. She asked her students to take turns teaching a little bit of their home language each day. Students taught their partners how to count from 1 to 10, how to introduce themselves and how to say basic phrases or words like “Cool”. Then, they recorded themselves saying those phrases in short videos and wrote vocabulary words on the whiteboard.Woods Chan saw the difference in her students. She said they grew more confident after seeing their own language on the whiteboard and hearing it in the videos. They started making friends with each other across cultural lines. Other students who were not in that class would come in and see something written in Mam on the whiteboard and say, “Hey, that’s Mam! I speak Mam!”The project also helped students understand their partners better. Orlando, a 17-year-old student from El Salvador, said he never knew Arabic or Mam, even existed before he came to the US and heard his classmates talk. Now, he thinks it would be good for all students in his school to learn a little of their partners’ home languages. “When I first got here,” he said in Spanish, “I thought, ‘No one talks like me. I’m the only one, and I felt lonely.’ Now, I don’t feel so bad anymore.”Knowledge of other languages can help Woods Chan’s students beyond the classroom, too. Languages like Mam are becoming more and more common in the US. Some Oakland graduates have gone on to become Mam-English interpreters (口译员) to help fill a lack of interpreters in all kinds of settings.9.What made Woods Chan think of the idea?A.Some of her students making fun of other languages.B.Her students hardly using their home languages.C.Her students being interested in learning a new language.D.Her students having difficulty communicating with each other.10.What was the students’ feeling of seeing their home languages written on the whiteboard?A.Angry but accepting.B.Excited and proud.C.Worried but supportive.D.Relaxed and creative.11.What effect did Woods Chan’s project have on Orlando?A.It made him feel less lonely at school.B.It encouraged him to get a job as an interpreter.C.It helped him understand his home language better.D.It enabled him to work better in foreign language classes.12.What can be the best title for the text?A.School Is Not the Only Place to Learn B.All Her Students Are Language TeachersC.She Replies to Her Students’ Needs Quickly D.Language Is Not a Block to Communication(2023秋·北京·高一统考期中)When my daughter Sara was in the fifth grade, she came to me with a problem. “Marcy hates me!” she cried. “Because Kathy is my friend, too. She wants me to be her friend and nobody else’s. You talk to Marcy. You tell her that I want to be her friend, but I can have other friends, too!”Oh! I looked at her for a few moments, wondering how I got into this mess (困境), when suddenly an idea came to me.Picking up two baskets from the living room, I explained, “When everyone is born, he or she has a little basket. This little one here is yours. The big one is mine. As you grow, so does the basket. You can see your little basket is inside mine because when you were born, there were too many things you couldn’t do for yourself. I did everything you couldn’t do on your own.”She nodded.“Well, as you grew older and began to do some things on your own, I began placing a few more things in your basket. When you learned to tie your shoes, that went in your basket.”She said softly, “I can tie my own shoes.”“Right. As you grow older, there will be more and more things you must do on your own.” As I spoke, I gradually took her basket out of mine and handed it to her. “You will finally carry your own basket with thingsonly you can do.”She looked up at me and said, “I understand. There are some things that I have to do for myself because they are in my basket.”13.What was Sara’s problem?A.She didn’t have a basket.B.She didn’t want her own basket.C.She couldn’t deal with her friendship.D.Her mother was too hard on her.14.What did the author think of Sara’s problem at first?A.Interesting.B.Exciting.C.Moving.D.Challenging.15.We can infer that Sara ________.A.would talk to Marcy herselfB.wouldn’t make friends with KathyC.was too young to deal with anythingD.managed to persuade her mother to help her16.The baskets mentioned in the passage refer to ________.A.gifts given by God when everyone is bornB.something that people use to keep vegetablesC.growing abilities as you grow upD.friendship that needs repairing(2023·高一课时练习)Age has never been a problem for Thessalonika Arzu-Embry. After all, she’s already got her master’s degree.The North Chicago-area girl started homeschooling at the age of 4. She began having an influence on others soon after. When she was 6 years old, she was an inspirational (鼓舞人心的) speaker at an organization called Tabitha House Community Service, a shelter for people who were forced to leave their homes due to the situations such as earthquakes, flood and other natural disasters.At the age of 11, she graduated from high school and then earned her bachelor’s degree in psychology in 2013. She completed those classes online as she was traveling for leadership meetings.She doesn’t stop there, though.

She grew up around airplanes and took flights all the time.Her goal is to use it to determine whether pilots are dealing with problems that could have deadly results once the plane takes off — a topic that has been in the news lately. For her, it’s a mix of two of her interests.In her free time, Thessalonika enjoys playing tennis, swimming and being active in her youth group. She also has three self-published books, which are on her site. Jump the Education Barrier is written to help students finish college, and In the Future aims to help business owners deal with trends.

It had been my dream to attend the famous carnival for many years, so I was excited. However, the moment I arrived, I was a little bit nervous because there were so many people on the streets. They say that five or six million people come to Rio during carnival time and about two million of them are on the streets on any givenday. Luckily, I had a local guide, my sisterˈs friend Ronnie. He said he would take care of me and show me all the highlights. He did not let me down.The carnival is most definitely all about the samba. Itˈs a style of music and dance which has its roots in Africa. Lots of Africans were used as slave labor by the Portuguese when Brazil was being colonized (殖民), so this mixed culture of African, Latin and European styles is really strong here. Samba music is usually fast and exciting with a lot of drums and harmonic vocals (和声). Itˈs the kind of music that you canˈt help dancing to, and I was learning that as I followed Ronnie through the crowd, my hips and shoulders were swinging (摇摆) almost involuntarily.Ronnie had got us tickets for the samba parade, the symbol of Brazilian culture, inside the Sambadrome where the top samba schools compete for the championship title, but we still had a long way to go through the street parties. He said most people enjoy the carnival by making their own parties in the street. About the samba parade, twelve main teams compete for the championship, and if they win, their performance will be talked about for years to come. So, you must be wondering how it was. Well, Iˈm afraid I canˈt tell you. Ronnie and I never made into the Sambadrome. We spent the day moving from one street party to another. There were more snacks, more drinks and lots of dancing. Do I regret missing the main parade? Not at all. I experienced the carnival like the locals, and it was truly amazing.21.What made the author nervous in the beginning?A.Busy schedule.B.The big crowd.C.No local guide.D.Culture shock.22.What can we learn about samba from this passage?A.It has its origin in America.B.It is not the taste of the author.C.It has a long and mixed culture.D.Its music is usually slow and soft.23.The author didnˈt regret missing the parade because ________.A.she met some amazing local peopleB.she didnˈt have the tickets for the paradeC.she celebrated the festival in a local wayD.she enjoyed herself by making her own parties24.What is the purpose of the passage?A.To recommend a helpful guide.B.To tell a painful history of Rio de Janeiro.C.To encourage people to learn samba.D.To share an unforgettable experience.(2023春·山东青岛·高一统考期中)Recently I was watching a talk show hosted by a comedian called Trevor Noah from South Africa. The part which struck me most was his advice about travelling. He said, “The one thing you will never waste your money on is travelling. Travel broadens the mind. It is the antidote to ignorance (无知).” In my opinion this statement should be everyone’s life motto (座右铭).This year I’ve had the opportunity to do a lot of travelling around Europe and it has shown me first hand how much you can learn and develop by visiting different places. It is so wonderful to be able to go to a different country, listen to the different languages, try local food and experience the different culture.I’ve personally noticed how different I am since I started exploring more. It involves being able to find good train or plane tickets, getting yourself to the airport, not to mention trying to find your way around a completely new city. While it can be scary at first, after a few trips you realize that Google Maps is your best friend and it really isn’t that difficult to figure out public transport. Travelling also helps you develop your organization skills! It is basic to figure out how to get to different tourist attractions and plan your time wisely. However, it is also nice to learn to relax. On top of that, hotels are a great way to meet new people from all around the world. It is fantastic when young people from different parts of the world come together; I’ve met so many strange and wonderful people this way.As far as I can see, travel as much as possible, because the experiences you will gain from travelling can’t be taught at school and they will change your life.25.What do the underlined words “antidote to” mean in the first paragraph?A.Replacement of.B.Development of.C.Treatment for.D.Agreement to.26.How will the author describe his trip to Europe?A.Busy.B.Hard.C.Rich.D.Costly.27.What has happened to the author since he began traveling?A.He has become more confident and independent.B.He has developed a skill to select tourist attractions.C.He has found it hard to figure out public transport.D.He has made many friends from all over the world.28.Which section is the text most likely to appear in a newspaper?A.News.B.Education.C.Opinions.D.Health.(2023春·江苏泰州·高一泰州中学校考阶段练习)Johan Clarey tends not to be in much of a rush when it comes to anything other than speeding down a hill on skis. Add Olympic success to the list of things he’s waited for.The Frenchman, who turned 41 in January, became the oldest man to win an Olympic medal in Alpine skiing in history when he claimed a silver behind Beat Feuz of Switzerland in the downhill at the Beijing Olympic Winter Games, breaking Bode Miller’s record by five years.“Everything came late in my life. Since I was a young boy, that’s what my mother said,” Clarey said. “I take extra time to do everything — walking, speaking and everything. Apparently, my career started quite the same.”This was Clarey’s fourth Olympics and realistically his last chance of being on the podium (领奖台) at the Olympics. “I took a lot of risks. I knew I had only one chance left in my career to get a medal in the Olympics,” he said. “And when I was going down, I knew I made a good run, but you never know in downhill skiing. Sometimes you’re fast, but sometimes you’re not. You never know why. But today was fast.” This was only Clarey’s second medal at a major championship; he also took home a silver in the super-G at the 2019 world championships.And this big moment almost didn’t happen: Clarey had considered retirement. He said he’s been having doubts about whether to continue competing for six years. The Frenchman said, “At 35, I said to myself, You have to do one year by one year.” That, he says now, was “a good choice”, because he has the medal to prove it. Clarey is still not quite ready to quit. He will turn his attention back to the World Cup circuit.29.What do we know about Clarey as a boy?A.He was gifted in snow sports.B.He preferred skiing to other sports.C.He got an early start on his future career.D.He seemed to mature later than his peers.30.What was Clarey’s achievement at the Beijing Olympic Winter Games?A.He won the championship in Alpine skiing.B.He competed in Alpine skiing for the first time.C.He won his first Olympic medal in Alpine skiing.D.He was the first Frenchmen to medal in Alpine skiing.31.What does Clarey now think of his decision at age 35?A.It was rewarding.B.It was too costly.C.It was a joke.D.It was a coincidence.32.What can we learn from Clarey’s story?A.Actions speak louder than words.B.Ups and downs make one strong.C.The early bird catches the worm.D.Determination is the key to success.(2023秋·贵州黔西·高一统考期末)A year ago, I paid no attention to English idioms (习语), though my teacher stressed the importance again and again. But soon, the importance of English idioms was shown in an amusing experience.One day, I happened to meet an Englishman on the road, and soon we began to talk. As I was talking about how I was studying English, the foreigner seemed to be astonished.Gently shaking his head, shrugging his shoulders, he said, “You don’t say!” I was puzzled. I thought, perhaps this is not an appropriate topic. “Well, I’d better change the topic.” So I said to him. “Well, shall we talk about the Great Wall? By the way, have you ever been there?” “Certainly, everyone back home will laugh at me if I leave China without seeing it. It was magnificent.” He was deep in thought when I began to talk like a tourist guide. “The Great Wall is one of the wonders in the world. We are very proud of it.” Soon I was interrupted again by his words: “You don’t say!”. I couldn’t help asking, “Why do you ask me not to talk about it?”“Well, I didn’t request you to do so,” he answered, greatly surprised. I said, “Didn’t you say ‘you don’t say’?” Hearing this, the Englishman laughed to tears. He began to explain, “‘You don’t say!’ actually means ‘Really!’. It is an expression of surprise. Perhaps you don’t pay attention to English idioms.”Only then did I realize I had made a fool of mysell. Since then I have been more careful with idiomatic expressions. Remember: What the English teachers said is always right to us students.33.A year ago, I paid no attention to English idioms because________.A.English idioms were not importantB.my teacher didn’t emphasize the importance of themC.I had no interest in themD.I didn’t realize the importance of English idioms34.What can we infer from the second paragraph?A.The Englishman left China without seeing the Great Wall.B.The Englishman thought the Great Wall is worth visiting.C.The Englishman wanted to see the Great Wall after I talked about it.D.The Englishman wanted me to act as his guide.35.At first, on hearing “You don’t say!” I thought the foreigner meant ________.A.he was only interested in the Great WallB.he was not interested in the topicC.I had talked too muchD.I had to stop talking36.After the Englishman explained the idiom, ________.A.I felt very foolishB.I thought the Englishman had made me a foolC.the Englishman became a real foolD.I became more carefully in everything(2023·全国·高一专题练习)In the United States, when one becomes rich, he wants people to know it. And even if he does not become very rich, he wants people to think that he is. That is what “keeping up with the Joneses” is about. It is the story of someone who tried to look as rich as his neighbors.The expression was first used in 1913 by a young American called Arthur Momand. He told this story about himself. He began earning $125 a week at the age of 23. That was a lot of money in those days. He got married and moved with his wife to a very wealthy neighbourhood outside New York City. When he saw that rich people rode horses, Momand went horseback riding every day. When he saw that rich people had servants, Momand and his wife also hired a servant and gave big parties for their new neighbours.It was like a race, but one could never finish his race because one was always trying to keep up. The race ended for Momand and his wife when they could no longer pay for their new way of life. They moved back to an apartment in New York City.Momand looked around him and noticed that many people do things just to keep up with rich lifestyle of their neighbours. He saw the funny side of it and started to write a series of short stories. He called it “Keeping up with the Joneses” because “Jones” is a very common name in the United States. “Keeping up with the Joneses” came to mean keeping up with rich lifestyle of the people around you. Momand’s series appeared in different newspapers across the country for over 28 years.People never seem to get tired of keeping up with the Joneses. And there are “Joneses” in every city of the world. But one must get tired of trying to keep up with the Joneses because no matter what one does, Mr Jones always seems to be ahead.37.Some people want to keep up with the Joneses because they .A.want to be as rich as their neighborsB.want others to know or to think that they are richC.don’t want others to know they are richD.want to be happy38.It can be inferred from the story that rich people like to .A.live outside New York City B.live in New York CityC.live in apartments D.have many neighbors39.Arthur Momand used the name “Jones” in his series of short stories because “Jones” is .A.an important name B.a popular name in the United StatesC.his neighbor’s name D.not a good name40.According to the writer, it is to keep up with the Joneses.A.correct B.interesting C.impossible D.good参考答案:1.D 2.C 3.B 4.A【导语】这是一篇记叙文。

典例在线For the past 11 years, 83-year-old Al Merritt has been a reliable and cheery presence in his neighborhood.Since 2010, Merritt has been trying to achieve the mission to cycle the circumference (周长) of the Earth — 24,901 miles — without ever leaving his own neighborhood. As a result, Merritt got to know many of his neighbors. Up until October 24, (2021), he never realized that his daily bicycle trips were as important to them as they were to him.At 3 p.m., nearly 200 people gathered near his home to surprise and congratulate Merritt on the ending of his “round-the-world” adventure, and a large trophy (奖杯) was placed in his arms. “It’s just unbelievable. I couldn’thave imagined anything like this,” he said.11 years ago, when his son Kevin brought a bike, Al started cycling around. At first, his rides were about five miles long, then 10 to 12 miles, and gradually the length of his outings grew. As time went by, he began to think big-the circumference of the Earth.

While he sounded the alarm, a student from Leeds climbed down the cliff to collect Judy.The dog had initially been knocked unconscious(失去知觉的)but had survived by drinking water from a fresh scream at the base of the cliff.

This was one more weapon for her to defeat my strange problem — inability to read.In the library, I found my way into the “Children’s Room.〞 I sat down on the floor and pulled a few books off the shelf at random. The cover of a book caught my eye. It presented a picture of a beagle. I had recently had a beagle, the first and only animal companion I ever had as a child. He was my secret sharer, but one morning, he was gone, given away to someone who had the space and the money to care for him. I never forgot my beagle.There on the book’s cover was a beagle which looked identical〔一样的〕 to my dog. I ran my fingers over the picture of the dog on the cover. My eyes ran across the title, Amos, the Beagle with a Plan. Unknowingly, I had read the title. Without opening the book, I borrowed it from the library for the summer.Under the shade of a bush, I started to read about Amos. I read very, very slowly with difficulty. Though pages were turned slowly, I got the main idea of the story about a dog who, like mine, had been separated from his family and who finally found his way back home. That dog was my dog, and I was the little boy in the book. At the end of the story, my mind continued the final scene of reunion, on and on, untilmy own lost dog and I were, in my mind, running together.My mother’s call returned me to the real world. I suddenly realized something: I had read a book, and I had loved reading that book. Everyone knew I could not read. But I had read it. Books could be incredibly wonderful and I was going to read them.I never told my mother about my “miraculous〞 (奇迹般地) experience that summer, but she saw a slow but remarkable improvement in my classroom performance during the next year. And years later, she was proud that her son had read thousands of books, was awarded a PhD in literature, and authored his own books, articles, poetry and fiction. The power of the words has held.1. The author’s mother told him to borrow a book in order to_____.A. encourage him to do more walkingB. let him spend a meaningful summerC. help cure him of his reading problemD. make him learn more about weapons2. The book caught the autho r’s eye because_____.A. it contained pretty pictures of animalsB. it reminded him of his own dogC. he found its title easy to understandD. he liked children’s stories very much3. Why could the author manage to read the book through?A. He was forced by his mother to read it.B. He identified with the story in the book.C. The book told the story of his pet dog.D. The happy ending of the story attracted him.4. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A. The author has become a successful writer.B. The author’s mother read the same book.C. The author’s mother rewarded him with books.D. The author has had happy summers ever since.5. Which one could be the best title of the passage?A. The Charm of a BookB. Mum’s Strict OrderC. Reunion with My BeagleD. My Passion for Reading4. 【·】At thirteen, I was diagnosed〔诊所〕 with kind of attention disorder. It made school difficult for me. When everyone else in the class was focusing on tasks, I could not.In my first literature class, Mrs.Smith asked us to read a story and then write on it, all within 45 minutes. I raised my hand right away and said,“Mrs.Smith, you see, the doctor said I have attention problems. I might not be able to do it.〞She glanced down at me through her gl asses, “you are no different from your classmates, young man.〞I tried, but I didn’t finish the reading when the bell rang. I had to take it home. In the quietness of my bedroom, the story suddenly all became clear to me. It was about a blind person, Louis Braille. He lived in a time when the blind couldn’t get much education. But Louis didn’t give up. Instead, he invented a reading systemof raised dots〔点〕, which opened up a whole new world of knowledge to the blind. Wasn’t I the “blind〞 in my class, being made to learn like the “sighted〞students? My thoughts spilled out and my pen started to dance. I completed the task within 40 minutes. Indeed, I was no different from others; Ijust needed a quieter place. If Louis could find his way out of his problems, why should I ever give up?I didn’t expect anything when I handled in my paper to Mrs.Smith, so it was quitea surprise when it came back to me the next day- with an“A〞 on it. At the bottom of the paper were these words:“ See what you can do when you keep trying?〞1. The author didn’t finish the reading in class because.A. He was new to the classB. He was tried of literatureC. He had an attention disorderD. He wanted to take the task home2. What do we know about Louis Braille from the passage?A. He had good sightB. He made a great invention.C. He gave up readingD. He learned a lot from school3. What was Mrs.Smith ‘s attitude to the author at the end of the story?A. AngryB. ImpatientC. SympatheticD. Encouraging4. What is the main idea of the passage?A.The disabled should be treated with respect.B.A teacher can open up a new world to students.C. One can find his way out of difficulties with efforts.D.

For them, it’s just normal.This hit home for me as I was sitting with my 2-year-old grandson on a sofa over the Spring Festival holiday. I had brought a children’s book to read. It had simple words and colorful pictures — a perfect match for his age.Picture this: my grandson sitting on my lap as I hold the book in front so he can see the pictures. As I read, he reaches out and pokes (戳) the page with his finger.What’s up with that? He just likes the pictures, I thought. Then I turned the page and continued. He poked the page even harder. I nearly dropped the book. I was confused: Is there something wrong with this kid?Then I realized what was happening. He was actually a stranger to books. His father frequently amused the boy with a tablet computer which was loaded with colorful pictures that come alive when you poke them. He thought my storybook was like that.Sorry, kid. This book is not part of your high-tech world. It’s an outdated, lifeless thing. An antique, like your grandfather. Well, I may be old, but I’m not hopelessly challenged, digitally speaking. I edit video and produce audio.I use mobile payment. I’ve even built websites.There’s one notable gap in my new-media experience, however: I’ve spent little time in front of a camera, sinceI have a face made for radio. But that didn’t stop China Daily from asking me last week to share a personal story fora video project about the integration of Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei province.Anyway, grandpa is now an internet star — two minutes of fame! I promise not to let it go to my head. But I will make sure my 2-year-old grandson sees it on his tablet.4. What do the underlined words “hit home for me” mean in paragraph 2?A. Provided shelter for me.B. Became very clear to me.C. Took the pressure off me.D. Worked quite well on me.5. Why did the kid poke the storybook?A. He took it for a tablet computer.B.

2024年高考真题Passage1【新课标Ⅰ卷】“I am not crazy,” says Dr. William Farber, shortly after performing acupuncture (针灸) on a rabbit. “I am ahead of my time.” If he seems a little defensive, it might be because even some of his coworkers occasionally laugh at his unusual methods. But Farber is certain he’ll have the last laugh. He’s one of a small but growing number of American veterinarians (兽医) now practicing “holistic” medicine-combining traditional Western treatments with acupuncture, chiropractic (按摩疗法) and herbal medicine.Farber, a graduate of Colorado State University, started out as a more conventional veterinarian. He became interested in alternative treatments 20 years ago when he suffered from terrible back pain. He tried muscle-relaxing drugs but found little relief. Then he tried acupuncture, an ancient Chinese practice, and was amazed that he improved after two or three treatments. What worked on a veterinarian seemed likely to work on his patients. So, after studying the techniques for a couple of years, he began offering them to pets.Leigh Tindale’s dog Charlie had a serious heart condition. After Charlie had a heart attack, Tindale says, she was prepared to put him to sleep, but Farber’s treatments eased her dog’s suffering so much that she was able to keep him alive for an additional five months. And Priscilla Dewing reports that her horse, Nappy, “moves more easily and rides more comfortably” after a chiropractic adjustment.Farber is certain that the holistic approach will grow more popular with time, and if the past is any indication, he may be right: Since 1982, membership in the American Holistic Veterinary Medical Association has grown from 30 to over 700. “Sometimes it surprises me that it works so well,” he says. “I will do anything to help an animal. That’s my job.”24. What do some of Farber’s coworkers think of him?A. He’s odd.B. He’s strict.C. He’s brave.D. He’s rude.25. Why did Farber decide to try acupuncture on pets?A. He was trained in it at university.B. He was inspired by another veterinarian.C. He benefited from it as a patient.D. He wanted to save money for pet owners.26. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about?A. Steps of a chiropractic treatment.B. The complexity of veterinarians’ work.C. Examples of rare animal diseases.D. The effectiveness of holistic medicine.27. Why does the author mention the American Holistic Veterinary Medical Association?A. To prove Farber’s point.B. To emphasize its importance.C. To praise veterinarians.D. To advocate animal protection.【答案】24. A 25. C 26. D 27. A【导语】本文是记叙文。

高考英语阅读理解记叙文满分攻略-阅读理解记叙文选标题1(含解析)

高考英语阅读理解记叙文满分攻略-阅读理解记叙文选标题1(含解析)

高考英语阅读理解记叙文满分攻略专攻阅读理解记叙文选标题记叙文选标题解题攻略一、记叙文标题三大特点1.概括性:语言高度凝练而形式简短2.针对性:标题外延与文章内容相符3.醒目性:能够激发读者的阅读欲望二、记叙文选标题三大方法1.主题句法记叙文一般没有明显的主题句,需要根据文中叙述的内容和线索来概括文章大意,但是如果文章末段出现说理性的句子,则这个句子为主题句。

2.关键词法全文中无明显主题句时,我们可以利用文章中的关键词。

任何一篇文章都是围绕某个主题展开的,因此,有的文章中最明显的特点之一是有一个反复出现的中心词,即关键词,也叫做主题词。

抓住了它,便容易抓住文章的中心。

3.逆向思维法在两个选项看上去都十分正确无法选择时,试着从选项出发,想象一下如果自己以此选项来写文章会有哪些内容,然后把它与文章的内容比较,逐一排除,缩小范围,接近的即为正确选项。

三、记叙文选标题三大策略1.正面肯定法在理解文章主旨的基础上,揣摩哪个选项能准确概括主旨。

2.反面否定法撇开原文,拿各个备选项去尝试用它们写出来的“文章”将是什么内容,然后和原文对照,一一排除荒谬者。

3.排除干扰法研究干扰项里面的中心词、修饰词的变化、结构、新奇性、概括力等。

文章的标题应该新颖奇特,易激发读者的好奇心,吸引读者注意力。

四、记叙文标题错误三大特指1.范围太宽泛选项太过于宽泛,与文章内容相距甚远。

2.范围太具体选项死扣文章某一细节不适合用于标题。

3.范围太偏颇选项内容过于偏颇,明显偏离文章主旨。

五、记叙文选标题三大关注点1.文章类型人物传记类记叙文叙事为人物服务,抓住六个W;故事类记叙文多以人物、事件为中心,以时间和空间为线索,按事件的发生、发展、结局展开故事。

2.文章结构纯记叙文注意文章首尾段,提炼文章关键词;夹叙夹议类记叙文注意文章重心在段尾,往往是有感而发,是主题升华,也是选择标题重要关注点。

3.选项规律记叙文选标题四个选项多采用二元法,两个比较接近正确答案,干扰性强,两个往往和主题关联性较弱,容易排除。

No wonder people always acknowledge my teaching career with, “I'm_glad_it's_you_and_not_me.”Suddenly, my mind transported me to my first few years of teaching.“Peter Potter,” I called from my name list, trying to control my laughter.“Laughlin McLaughlin?” Surely these were not real names.“Emotionally disabled... keeps them separated from the other kids...,” the vice headmaster commanded. This was my first teaching assignment.Surely this year could never be as discouraging as those first few. In my new classroom, I looked into the face of Jason. At eleven, his mother was killed in an accident, leaving him with physical, academic, and certainly emotional scars. I looked at another student, Robert, standing at the door; my vice headmaster asked if I would take him, even though he was an eleventh grader in my tenth grade class.But then there were — and are — stories of success — of Dustin, in Graduate School for Electrical and Computer Engineering; of Michael, now a teacher in a city school; of Willie (I)thought of the thousands of students whose lives have touched mine far more than I could have ever touched theirs.I broke from my daydream, a smile spreading across my face. Sadness, tears, challenges, fears — yes, teaching is filled with all of these — yet, it is also filled with laughter and smiles, hope, dreams, and rewards beyond measure.“I'm glad it's you and not me.” Those words resounded in my mind once again.1.What might the author's job be like?A.Easy. B.Boring. C.Interesting. D.Challenging.2.What does the underlined sentence imply?A.These people would like to teach.B.These people did not like the author.C.These people would not want this job.D.These people wanted to learn from the author.3.Why did the author mention Jason and Robert?A.To stress the importance of family education.B.To show her regrets about taking up teaching.C.To express her dissatisfaction with the school.D.To introduce the basic situation of her students.4.How did the author feel thinking of the successful students?A.She was doing a worthwhile job.B.She could never go back to the past.C.She was the inspiration behind the success stories.D.She would never make greater achievements in the future.(B)New Haven, Connecticut-A surprise awaited students in Yale who showed up for Professor Laurie Santos's class. They got slips of paper that said, “No class today.”There was only one rule for the students' unexpected free time-They were not allowed to study, but to relax. Since exams and papers were coming up, everyone was tired and stressed. At this moment they were touched. With around applause, nine students hugged Santos, and two burst into tears.Yet, cancelling class was not just a break. It was also a challenge, as she was asking them to stop worrying about their grades, even if it was just an hour. One student went to the Yale University Art Gallery for the first time in her four years at Yale. A group of students went to a recording studio and played a new song. More people were outside, and more were smiling. That's why about 1,200 students were taking Santos's class, called “Psychology and the Good Life”,the largest class in Yale's 317year history. Even nonYale students had the chance to take Santos's class. It was offered as an online course and she immediately became an Internet hit.Skyler Robinson, one of her students, was at a loss for a while about what to do during his break, and then decided to take a nap. “It was a great nap,”he commented. Santos designed the class after she realized that her students kept busy through long days that seemed far more depressing and joyless than her own college years. “They feel they're in this crazy rat race.They're working so hard that they can't take a single hour off. That's awful.”The ideas behind the class are simple. Santos said, “It is the hope that science can help students find peace among all the stresses and difficulties they face at college.”The lessons include showing more gratitude, performing acts of kindness and increasing social connections. The students really wanted to learn to lead a happy life in a sciencedriven way. Santos also noted the psychological happening of “miswanting”,which led people to work towards the wrong goals in life.One week, Santos asked students to exercise. Another week, she wanted them to get more sleep. They worked hard to keep some new habits. Social science research led to many new understandings of how people find happiness. She thinks her class can change Yale, or rather, not just Yale.1.How did students respond to the cancelling class?A.They expressed their concern.B.They were at a loss what to do.C.They showed gratitude to the teacher.D.They were eager to study individually.2.How can we know Santos's class was popular?A.From the attendance in her class.B.From the subject she taught.C.From the long history of Yale.D.From the release of the online course.3.What can students learn from Santos's class?A.To develop good study habits.B.To let exercise become their routine.C.To better understand how to find happiness.D.To do something joyful during the stressful time.4.What can we infer from the text?A.Santos had a more stressful time in her college.B.Students would be in rat race after Santos's class.C.Santos's influence can reach a wider range of people.D.Santos is going to cancel more classes for better effects.(C)When I was a boy, our extended, immigrant family would sometimes gather at my aunt's tiny house over the summer. Relatives from all over the country would come to visit. The adults would crowd together in the living room to talk and catch up on each other's lives. And the kids would be sent out into the front yard to play when dinner was slowly cooked for all of us.Those were the days before video games, smart phones, and motorized toys, so we often ended up playing an old game. I remember one of those moments especially. As I was the youngest and smallest of all the kids there, I got caught first and couldn't catch anyone else. My brothers and cousins were all too fast for me, and I grew more and more frustrated. Finally my face fell first into the dirt. I got up with tears forming in my eyes. Then I saw one of my female cousins Susan standing there. She started to run but was going much slower than before. I easily caught up and seized her. Then she turned to me, smiled, and said,“I'm it! You'd better run!” I ran off laughing with glee while she turned and started to chase others.Now I see how her act of kindness that day saved me from sadness and made my joy return. It didn't matter that we hardly ever saw each other. I know we are family and she loves me.In her wonderful book Box of Butterflies, Roma Downey writes, “We are all one, we all belong to each other, and we are one big, beaut iful family.” Perhaps it is time we all started to treat each other that way. Perhaps it is time we shared our love, our kindness, our laughter, and our joy with everyone without fear. Perhaps it is time to finally and forever bring this world together in one big family reunion.1.When the adults were chatting, the kids would ________.A.play video games B.sit in the front yardC.learn to cook dinner D.play traditional games2.The author was able to catch Susan because ________.A.the others ran too fast B.the author was good at runningC.Susan gave her a chance D.Susan wanted to chase others 3.What can be inferred from the passage?A.The author is grateful for what Susan did to her.B.The author can't meet Susan any more.C.The author urges others to love their family.D.The author believes the world will become a big family.4.What could be the best title of the passage?A.A memory of my childhood B.Sharing of goodness unites usC.Kindness brightens our life D.A good deed is invaluable(D)It's not easy feeling like you're always under the spotlight being judged for each little mistake you make. Your mind is in an endless circle playing what you said and did over and over again. You wish you had a time capsule(时间囊) to go back and make things change if you find mistakes. You fear what others will think about you and that they will reject and dislike you. You seek to be socially perfect.Academically, you work long endless hours just to make those excellent marks. Although most would say “it's good to have high standards”,they have no idea about the internal hell you put yourself through to achieve perfection. If you don't achieve the desired goal you feel as though you have failed, but you're far from failing, you just don't see it that way. So instead you are telling yourself that you're stupid and not smart. The pressure you place on yourself weighs you down and you wear the “not good enough”label each and every day.You not only have high standards for yourself but you also have them for others. If people don't perform up to your expectations, then you think them incompetent. This causes a lot of frustration because you can't trust anyone to get things right. So instead of being a team player you fly solo(单飞) and try to do two or three jobs at once. Your unrealistic expectations cause you to criticize and judge others and that leads to problems in other areas of your life.The attempt to be perfect is called perfectionism and it's damaging our emotional and mental health. We strive for perfection with our body, in our performance, and in our relationships. In a society that overstates mistakes, is it any wonder that so many young people attempt the impossible task of being perfect?We all have flaws, fears and make mistakes, and that's perfectly OK. It's our imperfections that make life interesting and they help us grow into a stronger and more adaptable person. Wedon't have to be a stronger and more adaptable person. We don't have to strive to achieve the impossible goal. We are designed to be perfectly imperfect.1.Where is this text most likely from?A.A diary. B.A novel. C.A magazine. D.A guidebook. 2.Which of the following is a perfectionist most likely to agree?A.Be generous with praise. B.Nobody is perfect.C.There is no best, only better. D.A contented mind is an everlasting feast. 3.What can we infer from paragraph 4?A.The society is partly to blame for perfectionism.B.More and more people are tolerating mistakes.C.Many young people find it impossible to be perfect.D.It's unusual for a society to seek perfectionism nowadays.4.What does the author think of imperfection?A.It's unbearable. B.It's part of our life.C.It deserves to be overcome. D.It does harm to our mental health.(E)Pearl Fryar knew he wanted to do something unique with the farmland he bought in South Carolina.He wanted to win the local garden club’s “Yard of the Month” award.Fryar didn’t have the money to purchase new trees,so he began by using bushes and shrubs that a local nursery had thrown away—plants that looked dead to most people.Because he worked days at a factory,Fryar often tended his garden at night.Neighbors got used to seeing him stand on the ladder,cutting up his steadily growing bushes.The shrubs began to take on different shapes.As the years went by,the creations became more delicate.Fryar began planting trees and using zip ties,coat hangers,PVC pipe,and even his wife’s old stockings to achieve the forms he wanted.“He has a way of handling plants to do things he wants them to by training,ben ding,wiring and clipping,” said a neighbor.Many professional gardeners are amazed by what Fryar has been able to accomplish.Some plants which wouldn’t survive in the South thrived under his care.Fryar’s attention to detail and his willingness to work har d have made him a local hero.He was the first African American to win “Yard of the Month” from the local garden club.Fryar’s garden now includes about 400 species of plants and 150 different plant sculptures.A box for donations can be found on the property,but giving is optional.Fryar welcomes people who can’t afford to pay.He understands.He’s been there.“You can be somebody,” he tells students who visit the garden.“Show me anyone who works at anything with a passion and has patience,and they’re going to be successful.Be strong enough not to let the barriers in life stop you.”1.How did Fryar make his garden unique?A.He made the plants into different shapes.B.He bought new trees from a local nursery.C.He used his professional knowledge.D.He asked his neighbors to cut up his bushes.2.What does the underlined word “thrived” in Paragraph 4 mean?A.Died away.B.Became weak.C.Faded slowly.D.Grew strong.3.What made Fryar win the award?A.Passion and innovation.B.Patience and generosity.C.Ambition and sympathy.D.Willingness and honesty..What is the best title for the text?A.Making a Man into a HeroB.The Hard Life of Pearl FryarC.Transforming a Garden into ArtD.The First Man of “Yard of the Month”参考答案:A1.D根据第一段中的“I knew what lay ahead-tough work hours overlaid with guilt, consumed with essays that needed feedback and lesson plans with best practice strategies.”可知,摆在作者面前的是充满内疚感的艰难工作、需要反馈的文章和关于最佳实践策略的课程计划,由此可见作者的工作是具有挑战性的。

高三英语阅读专项训练之记叙文(含答案及部分解析)

2022高三英语阅读专项训练之记叙文(A)Mrs.Black was having a lot of trouble with her skin, so she went to her doctor about it. He could not find anything wrong with her, however. So he sent her to the local hospital for some tests. The hospital, of course, sent the resul ts of the tests direct to Mrs. Black’s doctor, and the next morning he telephoned her to give her a list of the things that he thought she could not eat, as any of them might be the cause of her skin trouble. Mrs. Black carefully wrote all the things down on a piece of paper, which she then left beside the telephone while she went out to a ladies’ meeting.When she got back home two hours later, she found her husband waiting for her. He had a big basket full of packages beside him, and when he saw her, he s aid, “Hello, dear. I have done all your shopping for you.” “Done all my shopping?” She asked in surprise. “But how did you know what I wanted?” “Well, when I got home, I found your shopping list beside the telephone,” answered her husband. “So I went down to the shops and bought everything you had written down.”Of course, Mrs.Black had to tell him that what he had thought were all the things the doctor did not allow her to eat.1.The doctor who Mrs. Black went to see________.A.didn’t find the cause of her illnessB.didn't examine her carefully enoughC.wanted to fool herD.took her to a local hospital2.The doctor telephoned her the next morning because________.A.Mrs. Black l eft the list of foods at the doctor’sB.he wanted her to come to his office againC.he didn't receive the results of the testsD.he thought she should stop eating some foods, any of which might cause her disease 3.The word “He” in the second paragraph refe rs to ________.A.Mr. Black B.a doctor in the local hospitalC.Mrs. Black’s doctor D.someone else we don’t know4.From the passage, we can tell Mr. Black was________.A.at home when his wife answered the telephone B.a stupid manC.an honest husband D.about to leave for a meeting(B)At the beginning of Grade Two, I joined the cross-country running team in our school.When I came to the first practice, I was filled with optimism. But as the distance we ran in each practice gradually increased from three to four, to six miles, I realized with surprise that no matter how hard I tried, I wasn't able to run as fast as others. In fact, I was one of the slowest on the team.What was the point of putting myself through so much pain? After the first few weeks, I wanted to quit.Then we had our first cross-country meet.When we started the race, I felt the great pressure of expectations sink onto my shoulders. And after a while I stopped running and struggled to walk up the hill. But then I heard my coaches shouting my name from the top of the hill. I felt confused and embarrassed; why were they cheering for me? I was running terribly! As I tried my best to finish the race, I realized that my coaches didn't care how fast I ran. Neither did my teammates. During the rest of the season, they were always on the sidelines of every race, cheering for me just as loudly as they'd cheered for the front runner.From then on, I began to put my effort into supporting my teammates instead of focusing on my own performance. In that way, I celebrated my teammates' victories as if they were my own; I felt their pain and exhaustion as if they were my own.Cross-country running made me realize I don’t need to be the best to be succ essful in life. It taught me to value my relationships with people more than my relationship with my ego. It taught me to cheer for others even if I don't know their names.1.

The benefits of doing sports(C)Lewis Carroll was the pen-name o£ Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, an English writer and author of two of the best loved children's books in English literature——Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass. The characters and phrases from these books have entered and become part of the English lexicon(词典) in a way that was comparable to those from Shakespeare's works.Charles Dodgson was born on January 27,1832 and spent the first eleven years of his life at Warrington. Dodgson was educated first by homeschooling, then at boarding schools in Richmond and at Rugby, and finally at Charist Church College, Oxford. In later life, he remembered his boarding school experience with no fondness. Still, he was an excellent student and did very well academically throughout. For all his brilliance or perhaps because of it, he couldn't be bothered to spend long hours studying and so he didn't. If things came easily, that was fine; if they didn't, well, that doesn't seem to have bothered him overmuch.His book Alice's Adventures in Wonderland first came into being in 1862 as a story he made up for Alice Liddell, the ten-year-old daughter of his friend Dean Henry Liddell. Later he wrote it down and showed the book, illustrated with his own drawings, to another friend, the fairy tale writer George Macdonald and his children. They loved it and enthusiastically urged him to get itpublished. Accordingly, Dodgson revised it for publication. And in 1865, with illustrations more professionally done by Sir John Tenniel, it became an immediate bestseller. Its sequel(续集) Through the Looking-Glass proved equally popular.1. What does paragraph 1 intend to tell us?A. Charles Dodgson was more famous than Shakespeare.B. Charles Dodgson had great achievements in literature.C. Charles Dodgson once worked on the English lexicon.D. Charles Dodgson was a writer with a few works.2. What do we know about Charles Dodgson from paragraph 2?A. He was a hard-working student.B. He struggled with his studies,C. He received very little schooling.D. He performed high study efficiency.3. What probably led to the publication of Alice's Adventures in WonderlandsA. The persuasion from George Macdonald.B. The help from Dean Henry Liddell.C. The guidance of Sir John Tenniel.D. The demand of a publisher.4. When Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland first came into being, Charles Dodgson .A. had a little boy as its main characterB. wrote it just for his childrenC. was sure it could be popularD. didn't expect it to be published(D)On Tuesday, Guinness World Records announced through its official micro blog account that livestreaming star Li Ziqi had, with 14.1 million followers, beaten her own earlier record as the person with the most followers on the Chinese YouTube channel. On July 16, she had 11.4 million followers, also a record. She attracted so many followers in just four years, since debuting on the platform with her first short video, titled Making a dress of grape skins, in 2017. In it, Li showed how she kept the skins of grape after eating the fruit, boiled them in water and used the emerging purple dye to color dress.Though she features on YouTube’s Chinese channel, her appeal knows no boundaries, with viewers around the world commenting favorably under her videos. Wh at’s the secret behind Li’s mass appeal? The answer seems obvious after watching her videos. Instead of preaching(说教)to her audiences, Li tells her story as it is, like, say, about growing beans, harvesting them,grinding them into powder and fermenting it to make bean sauce in the traditional Chinese way. That way she also ends up promoting traditional Chinese culture before a global audience.However, what she promotes is often a legacy(传统)of the past China is no longer how she depicts it in her videos. Chinese farmers now harvest crops with machines, not with hands, and have long been cooking with natural gas, instead of using wood.All the progress that technology can bring has reached China. It is time for more Chinese individuals and media to draw a fuller portrait of modern China before the world.1. Which of the following statements is RIGHT?A. Li has the most followers in the world.B. Li defeated a livestreaming star, becoming the person with the most followers.C. Li had 14.1 million followers on July16.D. Li is a livestreaming star with the most followers on the Chinese YouTube.2. Which one of the following processes is NOT included in her first short video?A. boiling the skins of grape in waterB. keeping the skins of grapeC. storing the skins of grape in a container for a weekD. using the emerging purple dye to color a dress3. What’s the secret behind Li’s mass appeal?A. her style and contentB. her beauty and kindnessC. her imagination and creativityD. her diligence and persistence4. In the last two paragraphs, the author appeals us to .A. follow Li to be a livestreaming starB. present an all-round modern China before the worldC. promote our ancient traditional crafts and cultureD. study hard to contribute to the construction of our motherland(E)Having a microchip implanted in a man's brain may be common in sci-fi movie plots, but it may soon become an actual possibility.Elon Musk -a US tech tycoon, founder of Space X- has been working on this technology. OnAug 28, Musk gave a display of the chip, which was implanted into the head of a pig named Gertrude.The chip, developed by Musk's company Neuralink, is the size of a coin. But don't let its size fool you. The tiny chip has over 3,000 electrodes (电极)attached to flexible threads, which can monitor about 1,000 neurons (神经元).It collects neural signals from an area of the brain, and then transmits those signals wirelessly to nearby computers, according to MSN. That enabled researchers to monitor Gertrude's brain activity while she was walking around in the display.Though the technology is still in its early stage, it is encouraging for humans. This technology would solve a lot of brain injuries and is essentia] for Al symbiosis, which will allow the human brain to combine with an artificial intelligence.When the device can be applied to humans, its main goal will be to help those who have mobility difficulties. Musk hopes this technology can also be used to help those with hearing and eyesight issues.Although such a device could repair those problems, putting it into practice is by no means a piece of cake. Currently, the device can transmit signals from about 500 neurons in the pig's brain. Compared to 80 billion neurons in a human brain, this number is tiny. And to cover the whole human brain also means the electrodes have to be much smaller.Also, implanting the chip into the brain poses a potential danger. There is a risk of the immune system attacking this foreign body.Right now, the hope of controlling the brain via controlling a few neurons seems overly optimistic. "There are many technological challenges ... to overcome before Neuralink can put its devices to the purposes," Y uan Lanfeng, an associate professor at the University of Science and Technology of China, told China Daily.1. What do we know about Elon Musk's microchip?A. It was inspired by sci-fi movie plots.B. It is able to collect wireless signals.C. It is tiny in size but powerful in function.D. It has been implanted into a human's brain.2. What does the underlined word “t hat" in Paragraph 3 refer to?A. The operation of the chip in Gertrude’s brain.B. The attachment of electrodes to flexible threads.C. The development of neurons inside Gertrude's brain.D. The transmission of signals from a nearby computer3. What is the major target of the microchip?A. To monitor animals’ brain activity.B. To help people with mobility issues.C. To develop a cure for immune system problems.D. To contribute to the research on Al technologies.4. How does Yuan Lanfeng feel about implanting the chip into the human brain?A. Worried.B. Excited.C. Optimistic.D. Challenged.(F)In our everyday lives we meet situations in which we take many things for granted(不去重视).We only treasure things when they are gone.This is a sad truth of human nature.One day,I found myself as a witness to a similar situation.One evening,I left work and boarded the train.After entering,I noticed something unusual.The center of the car had a few empty seats while both ends were crowded with people standing.I didn't pay much attention and sat down on one of the empty seats.I sensed a funny smell.It wasn't long before I noticed a homeless person sleeping on three seats in front of me.He was bleeding from his nose.Why wasn't anyone helping him?His clothes were torn and he was giving off a strange smell.Along with the smell,his eyes were dull,watery and red.Occasionally he scratched himself and people looked at him as if he had committed a crime.As the train stopped at stations and more people came in they covered their noses and faced away from him.All the seats around him were empty.Suddenly,he began to swear at the people around him.A plain clothes policeman who looked like a construction worker took out his certificate and showed it to the homeless man.The officer,not wanting to touch the homeless man, told him his rights and directed him to exit the train.As the officer walked the man out of the train,the homeless man turned around and said "MY HOME!" and started crying.A man doesn't value things until they are gone.If he didn't have a home,at least he hadfreedom.Now he has neither.No one wants to help someone who won't help himself.1. When entering the car,how did the author feel at first?A. Annoyed.B. Puzzled.C. Sad.D. Calm.2. How did people react to the homeless man?A. They caught him and called the police.B. They covered him with clean clothes.C. They disliked and avoided him.D. They stared at him curiously.3. It can be learned that the policeman .A. was very rude to the manB. sent the man back to his hometownC. forced the man to leave the cityD. went off the train with the man4. What does the author think of the homeless man?A. He is a loser of life.B. He is worth our respect.C. He is very funny.D. He is a fearless fighter.(G)He has jumped off tall buildings,been lit on fire,and fought the deadliest people on the planet.And you know what? For Greg Rementer,it’s all in a day’s work.Rementer is part of a group of men and women who bring your favorite action scenes to life on film and television.He was hired to stand in for actors when a scene carries real risk or requires special skills.On the set of Captain America:Civil War,for example,Rementer stepped in for actor Sebastian Stan.Rementer had to jump 45 feet from one building onto another —after being thrown down a flight of stairs.Stunts (特技) have always been part of movies.But in the early days of Hollywood,actors generally did their own stunts.When actors didn’t do their own stunts,filmmakers would simply hire the first person they could find crazy enough to give it a go.Accidents that resulted in serious injuries were not uncommon.Today,most stunt performers know how to safely fall from great heights.Many have sports backgrounds.Bobby Holland Hanton,who performed in Avengers:Age of Ultron,was a gymnast.Katie Eischen,who worked in The Hunger Games:Catching Fire,did volleyball.As for Rementer,he has been studying martial arts (武术) since primary school.Rementer loves his job,but it’s hardly glamorous.Days on set can be long and hard;it’s common to work 14 hours at a time in uncomfortable locations.A stunt that lasts a few seconds can take hours to set up.Plus,stunt performers must train continuously to stay in shape.Being a stunt performer today is much safer than it used to be,thanks to better equipment and strict rules in Hollywood.But injuries are still part of the job.After all,if stunts were completely safe,stunt performers wouldn’t be needed.“I’ve been fortunate,” Rementer says,explaining that he hasn’t had any serious accidents.“I’ve had some broken arms,broken toes,and a lot of bruises.But when you’re doing things like riding wires into concrete walls,you’re going to feel it.You just have to be ready to get up and go again.”1.What was Rementer hired to do?A.Bring boring stories to life.B.Encourage actors to do sports.C.Perform dangerous actions for actors.D.Instruct Sebastian Stan in special skills.2.Why did the author mention some stunt performers in Paragraph 3?A.To introduce their stunts.B.To praise their great skills.C.To show they are highly trained.D.To stress the importance of sports backgrounds.3.Which of the following can best replace the underlined word “glamorous” in Paragraph 4?A.Tiring.B.Attractive.C.Dangerous.D.Meaningful.4.What can we infer about Rementer from his words?A.He takes pleasure in risky jobs.B.He suffers misfortune every day.C.He has a strong sense of professionalism.D.He has a love-hate relationship with his job.参考答案A.ADACB.BCDAC.BDADD.DCABE.1:由文章第三段中的句子“The chip, developed by Musk's company Neuralink, is thesize of a coin. But don't let its size fool you. The tiny chip has over 3,000 electrodes (电极)attached to flexible threads, which can monitor about 1,000 neurons (神经元). 这个芯片是由马斯克的Neuralink公司开发的,只有硬币大小。

1.(2024上·贵州贵阳·高三贵阳一中校考阶段练习)Splendid straw-made miniatures (缩微模型) of classic ancient buildings decorate Xu Jian’s home. They range from the Yellow Crane Tower to Forbidden City’s turrets. They are all full of details and delicately crafted, tied and arranged by Xu’s hands from countless sorghum straws (高粱杆).The craft involves carving grooves (沟槽) into the sorghum straws, before multiple straws are locked together through those identically sized grooves, Xu says, adding that the sorghum straw art requires a great deal of patience, especially for works depicting ancient architecture.Under the influence of his father Xu Yanfeng, Xu Jian got his hands on sorghum straws in childhood. He still vividly remember show his father would follow a film featuring scenes of Tiananmen Square and then note down all the details before creating a delicate miniature of it for over three years. The work was then sent to Japan for exhibition and collected by a local museum. Ever since, many of his father’s works made their way to exhibitions at home and abroad.Xu Jian became committed to the art after he reached 19, getting into the depth of the related techniques. “My father urged me to keep in mind traditional Chinese architectural skills and the history of traditional building protections, and to apply them to my own sorghum straw artworks,” he says.

【精选真题01】(2022·江西重点校联考)For many people, bookstores are wonderful places. That's because the books on the shelves can take you away to magical lands, help you learn a foreign language, or cook a delicious meal. But when your community is too small to house a brick bookstore, you have to come up with another idea. A mobile bookstore was the result. That is the case for Rita Collins,70, who dreamed of opening a used bookstore after retiring from teaching.A business planning class from the American Booksellers Association convinced Collins to give up her idea of opening a bookstore in the small town where she lives. Her town, Eureka, Montana, only has a population of1,517. Collins asked her instructors about a traveling bookstore on wheels and they doubted her idea. But she insisted on it.Collins was inspired by Dylans Mobile Bookstore, a traveling bookstore in Wales run by Jeff Towns. She contacted Jeff for advice but she was largely on her own when it came to building her bookstore. First, she had to find a vehicle large enough to stand in. Then she had to have it refitted with shelves that would hold the books at a15-degree angle so that they would stay in place while traveling. Collins named her bookstore St. Rita's Traveling Bookstore, which has been on the road since 2015.At first, she drove through Montana and then she made her first cross-country trip in 2016. After she retired in2017, it became a full-time job. Collins and her bookstore have visited 30 states, stopping at festivals and events along the way. Collins loves meeting people and making connections. While she loves what she does, Collins doesn't think she can keep doing it. In several years, she hopes to pas her traveling bookstore onto another book lover who shares the same interest and will keep it on the road.24. Why did Collins abandon opening a bookstore?A. It cost a lot of money.B. It was not promising.C. It would be out of date.D. It was not approved.25. Why were the shelves designed at a 15-degree angle?A. To beautify the mobile bookstore.B. To make it easy to move on the road.C. To keep the bookstore's balance.D. To protect the books from falling down.26. Which of the following can best describe Collins?A. Merciful, careful and delightful.B. Intelligent, patient and reasonable.C. Determined, perseverant and social.D. Generous,considerate and lovely.27. What is a suitable title for the text?A. Bookstore on WheelsB. Sacrificing for a BookstoreC. Cross-Country BookstoreD. A Bookstore Promoter【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。

备战2024年高考英语名校模拟真题速递(江苏专用)第二期专题05 阅读理解之记叙文10篇(2023·江苏·统考模拟预测)On an extremely cold December night, fire trucks arrived in the sleepy little town of Manton, Michigan and shot to Chittle’s home. Was it because of a fire or a child climbing too high to a dangerous place? Rather, it was for helping make a dream come true.Outdoor activities and a slow pace of life are a mainstay in this rural town. When people were unable to leave the community, Scott Chittle decided they needed a safe place to come together and something joyful during the winter months. And what is a better outdoor activity to get people outside than ice skating?To fulfil his dream, Chittle downloaded instructions on how to build an ice rink and then ordered a 3,000 square foot waterproof cloth and some wood to create walls online. It took 12 fire trucks to get enough water to fill the plot.It took a little time and some neighborly persuasion as Chittle went door to door to convince people to come to see his creation, and soon Chittle’s backyard ice rink became a Manton hot spot. Children were skating and shooting, a fire was burning, and hot chocolate was steaming in to-go cups. “When things were tough, it was a place,” says Chittle’s neighbor Audrey Hooker. “It was fantastic because we just came together and became calm and happy instead of concerned.”But the goodwill didn’t stop with Chittle. When the community heard how much money he used to make this project happen, everyone stepped forward. A fundraiser brought in about $1,300, and letters flooded to Chittle’s home stuffed with cash. “Almost 30 complete strangers knocked on my door to just shake my hand and say thank you, most of them handing me money as well and three asking for a hug,” says Chittle. “This has been a community thing. It’s more than me. I want to show the rest of the world what a little effort and the best intentions can do.”1.Why did fire trucks come to Manton?A.To deal with an emergency.B.To send water to the community.C.To ensure people’s safety in the town.D.To help with Chittle building the ice rink.2.What did Chittle do to carry out his project?A.Persuade his neighbors to make donations.B.Purchase a piece of land behind his house.C.Turn to the Internet for tips and materials.D.Research the popular lifestyles in Manton.3.How did the ice rink affect the community?A.It made the community popular in Mantan.B.It slowed down the pace of the residents’ life.C.It offered people there comfort and company.D.It inspired the residents to do outdoor activities. 4.What does the underlined sentence in the last paragraph mean?A.Everyone could make a difference to society.B.Chittle received acts of kindness from others.C.The community got better due to the ice rink.D.Chittle had goodwill to the whole community.(2023秋·江苏苏州·高三苏州中学校考阶段练习)As a child, Liu Wenwen didn’t like the suona, a “loud” traditional Chinese musical instrument, also an ancestral treasure of her family that was to become her career.Liu says she felt ashamed. In the 1990s, people admired things that were modern and international. The suona was considered out of date. Her father’s family has performed with the suona for seven generations, while the tradition on her mother’s side of the family can be traced back to the early Qing Dynasty. Despite her unwillingness, she followed her parents to play the suona as early as 3 years old. Besides it, Liu has also learned traditional Chinese vocal music and dancing — skills that have improved her oral muscles and sense of rhyme, helping equip her to be a professional musician.It wasn’t until 2008 that she first found suona music beautiful. That was when she entered the Shanghai Conservatory of Music to learn the instrument more systematically from Liu Ying, a professor and top player. “The music played by the professor is just amazing, and different from what I had heard before,” she says.She loves exchanging ideas about suona playing techniques with her students. “It’s wonderful to see the younger generation carrying on this cultural tradition.” Liu Wenwen said she is pleased to see the suona regain popularity among young people, sometimes combined with jazz, opera and other art forms. This has stopped its decline in the 1990s. Her name, when mentioned on China’s social media platforms, often is followed by a video of her live performance at a concert in Sydney, Australia. Westerners were amazed by the loud, unfamiliar instrument and its colorful music. “I felt my hard work had paid off. I trained for over 20 years, probably just to win cheers and applause for traditional Chinese music on the international stage.”5.What urged Liu Wenwen to learn to play the suona?A.Career pressure.B.Social trend.C.Family tradition.D.Her professor’s performance.6.What has helped her become a professional musician?A.Her early passion for suona.B.Her exposure to vocal music and dance.C.Her learning knowledge of rhyme.D.Her performing experiences with family.7.How did Liu begin to find suona music beautiful?A.By learning from the famous professor Liu.B.By visiting Shanghai Conservatory of Music.C.By combining suona with other music forms.D.By watching her family performing with suona.8.What is implied in the last paragraph?A.She is now working as a professor overseas.B.She appreciates the value of her performance.C.She has made a fortune after 20 years’ devotion.D.She has amazed Westerners with her hard work.(2023·江苏南京·校联考模拟预测)Some of my earliest memories involve sitting with my dad in his study every night when he came home from the office. I’d watch as he put his personal items away: his watch, wallet, comb and car keys. They would always occupy the same spot on the table every time.Dad’s comb was jade green. I heard he bought it when he married Mum. Every night, he would smile, hand me the comb and say, “Be a good girl and help Daddy clean it, OK?”I was more than happy to do it. At age five, this kind of task brought me such joy. I would excitedly turn the tap on, and then brush the comb with a used toothbrush as hard as I could. Satisfied that I’d done a good job, I would proudly return the comb to Dad. He would smile at me, and place the comb on top of his wallet.About two years later, Dad left his sales job and started his own wholesale business. I started primary school. That was when things started to change. Dad’s business wasn’t doing so well, and our stable life started getting shaky. He didn’t come home as much as he used to. And when he did come home, it was always late and I’d already be in bed. I started to get mad. Why didn’t he listen to Mum and just stick to his old job? Why take the risk and place the whole family in trouble? Over the years, I stopped waiting for him to come home, and stopped going downstairs to check on him.Now 28, I’ve graduated from college and got a job. Dad’s business has also started to get back on track. Yet the uncomfortable silence between Dad and me went on.Two days before my birthday last year, Dad came home early. On that evening, I helped him carry his bags into his study as usual. When I turned to leave, he asked me to clean his comb. I looked at him for a while, then took the comb and headed to the sink.It was a new comb. This one was brown. I hadn’t noticed that he’d changed it. After cleaning it, I passed it back to Dad. He looked at it and smiled. But this time, I noticed something different. My dad had aged. He had wrinkles next to his eyes when he smiled, yet his smile was still as heartwarming as before.9.From the first three paragraphs, we can learn .A.the earliest memories with Dad were full of joyB.the precious green comb of Dad was made of jadeC.the author was unwilling to clean the comb for DadD.the author would study together with Dad every evening10.What probably made Dad decide to resign from his original job to start his own business?A.That he was eager to get everything on track.B.That he wanted to keep his family life stable.C.That he was laid off and had to make a living.D.That he hoped to earn a better life for the family. 11.What emotional changes did the author experience when staying with Dad these years?A.cheerful→ mad→ warm.B.mad → satisfied → warm.C.satisfied → worried → angry.D.warm → concerned → uncomfortable.12.What could be the best title for the text?A.A Comb of Jade Green B.Dad’s Wholesale BusinessC.Evenings with My Dad D.My Earliest Memories with Dad(2023秋·江苏常州·高三校联考阶段练习)“Leave him alone!” I yelled as I walked out of the orphanage (孤儿院) gate and saw several bullies pushing the deaf kid around. I knew he lived in the old white house across the street from the orphanage where I lived.“You are a stupid idiot,” said the bigger of the two bullies as he pushed the boy down on the ground. The deaf boy’s body started shaking all over and he curled up in a ball trying to shield and hide his face. He looked like he was trying to cry, or something but he just couldn’t make any sounds.I ran as fast as I could back through the orphanage gate. I uncovered my home — made bow which I had constructed out of bamboo and string. I grabbed four arrows and then ran back out the gate with an arrow cocked in the bow. I stood there quiet, like, breathing really hard, just daring either one of them to kick or touch the boy again.“You’re a dumb freak just like him,” said one of the boys as he grabbed his friend and back off far enough so that the arrow would not hit them. “If you’re so brave, kick him again now,” I said shaking like a leaf. The bigger of the two bullies ran up and kicked the deaf boy in the middle of his back as hard as he could and then he ran out of arrow range again.The boy was trembling with fear and then made a sound that I would never forget for as long as I live. It was the sound like a whale makes when it has been harpooned (用鱼叉叉) and knows that it is about to die. I fired all four of my arrows at the two bullies as they ran away laughing about what they had done.I pulled the boy up off the ground and helped him back to his house. When we reached his home, his sister told me that her brother could not say or hear anything. I told her that he did make a sound when the bully kickedhim in the back. She told me that I must be mistaken because all her brother’s vocal cords (声带) had been removed during experimental surgery.The boy made one of those hand signs at me as I was about to leave. His sister told me that he was saying that he loved me with his hands. I didn’t say anything back to her at all because, I think, people can’t talk with their hands and everybody knows people can only talk with their mouth.On my very last day in the orphanage I was being chased by the police. They told me that I was being sent off to the Florida School for Boys, a reform school at Marianna, so I ran to get away from them. They chased me around the dining room building several times and finally I rushed for a fence and tried to climb over it to escape.I saw the deaf boy sitting there on his porch just looking at me as they pulled me down from the knee and handcuffed (用手铐铐住) me. The boy placed his fingers through the fence and just stood there looking at us. All I could hear the entire time was the high pitched sound of that whale being harpooned again. As I was pulled away into the police car I saw the deaf boy loosen his firm hold of the fence and slide very slowly to the ground. That was when I realized he probably really did love me and that he wanted to save me because he thought that I too was making the whale sound.13.Why did the author shake like a leaf?A.He got angry over others’ bullying behavior.B.He got upset for being called an idiot.C.He got disappointed by the deaf boy’s reaction.D.He got scared of being kicked by the bullies again.14.Why did the deaf boy make the high-pitched sound again in the last paragraph?A.To prove the author’s innocence.B.To save the author out of trouble.C.To signal the author to trust the police.D.To remind the author to run to the fence.15.Which words can be used to describe the author?A.Just and courageous.B.Helpful and sensitive.C.Sympathetic and modest.D.Considerate and aggressive.16.What is the best title of the story?A.A boy without vocal cords.B.The pure friendship.C.A fight with two bullies.D.The whale sound.(2023秋·江苏盐城·高三江苏省东台中学校考阶段练习)The Twenty-three-year-old Mumbai girl VidhiBubna is offering India’s first and only diving grant to explore the marine ecosystem.Vidhi’s first diving experience turned out to be a heartbreaking one. While she expected a lot of colors underwater as she had seen on TV, Vidhi came across all white corals (珊瑚), which means they are almost dead from being bleached (褪色).“It was very sad and I just started crying after coming out of the water,” she says.Vidhi, an economics graduate from Ashoka University, did not enjoy working with numbers and turned to writing about social issues, including women’s rights and minority issues.As an adventure lover, Vidhi went diving to explore the underwater beauty last year. Her disappointment at seeing dying corals led to the start of Coral Warriors, anon-profit organization that aims to raise awareness of marine protection and climate change.“Nobody knows about climate change till they see it,” Vidhi says. The Mumbai-based organisation offers India’s first and only diving grant. The grant sponsors level-one scuba diving education in any location of their choice in India. While there is no specific standard, Vidhi says the selection process is strict, choosing candidates who are passionate about climate change and seeing that they do something of their choice. Four candidates have been awarded the grant so far and the organisation hopes to find at least five people every year.“After the candidates return, we expect them to work on a climate change project of their choice, create communities, and work to create awareness and drive action-centric projects,” she explains.Prior to starting coral warriors, Vidhi was hosting free online workshops to spread awareness of marine biodiversity and climate change, and has reached about 5, 000 people through them.As a next step, Vidhi is planning to work on documentaries with high-quality underwater images and videos, considering not many can afford or have the courage to go diving to see what is happening underwater. 17.How did Vidhi feel on her first diving?A.Excited.B.Upset.C.Awesome.D.Awkward.18.Why did Vidhi set up Coral Warriors?A.To focus more attention on social issues.B.To further explore the underwater beauty.C.To fuel people’s enthusiasm for adventure.D.To make an appeal for marine conservation.19.What are candidates expected to do?A.To help promote people’s sense of community.B.To choose whatever they are passionate about.C.To meet specific and strict selection standards.D.To undertake activities relevant to climate change.20.What will Vidhi do to protect marine biodiversity?A.Ahoot documentaries.B.Tackle climate change.C.Encourage people to dive.D.Host free online workshops.(2023秋·江苏镇江·高三统考开学考试)On any given day Damon Carson will deal with lots of inquiries from large companies looking to unload massive amounts of stuff that would otherwise go to the landfill (废物填埋场). For example, twenty-eight plastic boxes from a store were just waiting for him to repurpose them. And a recreation company wanted to know if Carson was interested in 360 kilograms of blue ropes“They don’t want to just throw it away,” he explains. “Nor should they. Because it has value. ”The question of what value, and to whom, is what occupies Carson’s days.For nearly a decade, his company, Repurposed Materials, has been devoted to this. He’s not looking to recycle the stuff he gets—breaking it down to make something new—but rather finding new homes for abandoned goods in their original forms.In the late 1990s, Carson was on break from business school, when he discovered the profitable world of waste. He and a friend started a small business near construction sites. Working in construction, Carson had become familiar with an almost-everyday phenomenon: “You’d open up one of these big construction dumpster (大垃圾箱) and stuff would start falling out,” he says. He would find perfectly good wood, or a window still wrapped in plastic from the factory. “You can’t wrap your mind around how wasteful America is until you run a waste company,” he saysThere is a solid environmental case for repurposing, or upcycling. “When people call, I say we don’t chip, grind, melt.” “Carson notes. Recycling, however noble, still takes energy. “Why melt something down, if it still has value?” he asks. An old oil-field pipe might be melted down and turned into a car bumper, but it still takes a fair amount of power to finish the transformation. Why not put it straight up and turn it into a fence post on a farm? The only cost is transport.Carson recently opened two new warehouses (仓库), bringing the total to six. “Corporations(企业) are,” he says, “becoming increasingly focused on sustainability, so we’re upping (使升级) our capabilities. You never know when the next 20,000-kilogram spool of 10-centimeter-thick rope might come along, or where it might go.”21.What does Carson’s company Repurposed Materials do?A.It helps large companies bury waste.B.It warns people against throwing away waste.C.It brings new lives to abandoned stuff.D.It changes the original form of abandoned stuff.22.What advantage does upcycling have over recycling according to Carson?A.It is more logical B.It is more systematicC.It is more formal D.It is more energy-saving23.What caused Carson to consider upping his company’s capabilities?A.Current trend of using heavier ropes.B.Fast development of his warehouses.C.Natural process of treating waste materials.D.Increasing environmental concerns of corporations.24.Which of the following best describes Carson?A.Generous and hard-working B.Intelligent and humorousC.Devoted and forward-looking D.Independent and responsible(2023秋·江苏镇江·高三统考开学考试)Every November, as Thanksgiving Day approaches, one memory comes to my mind. At my big Turkish family’s get-togethers, baklava (果仁蜜饼) is the norm at the dessert table. There’s rolled baklava, nut-filled baklava and chocolate-dipped baklava.One year, though, back when I was in high school, my cousin Johnny decided to change things up a bit. He showed up at my parents’ house for Thanksgiving with two items that had never been served before--apple pie and a can of cream.Those two items caused one of the biggest arguments. I distinctly remember my mom and aunts whispering in the kitchen.“Apple pie?” one of my aunts said. “What to do with this?”I can still recall my mom’s puzzled expression at it all. If there’s one thing in this world my mom distrusts, it’s fruit-filled desserts, a no-no in our cuisine culture. “Why would you bake fruits into a dessert when you can eat them fresh?” she often says.The cream only made things worse. My mom didn’t want to hurt Johnny’s feelings. In a true act of love, she put the pie out on the dining room table, accompanied by the cream. It went mostly untouched.Nowadays, things are different. We actually have pie at Thanksgiving--my mom regularly makes pie (the fear of fruit-filled sweets continues, but desserts topped with fruits or nuts have been given the okay). We still laugh about the drama caused by Johnny’s apple pie. I’ll never forget it. It wasn’t just about the pie for me. Growing up, I sometimes felt like an outsider because of my culture. That Thanksgiving, though, was one of the first times I realized that my family’s oddness was actually a good thing. It’s what made us.What about you? Which Thanksgiving sticks out as your most memorable one?25.The purpose of the first paragraph is to introduce ________.A.the unique family tradition B.the background of the storyC.different kinds of baklava D.the customs of Thanksgiving Day26.Johnny’s apple pie ________.A.ruined the festival atmosphere B.challenged family traditionsC.resulted in a family quarrel D.contributed to a heavy meal27.Which of the following is the best description of the author’s mom?A.Serious and honest.B.Generous and strict.C.Humorous and caring.D.Considerate and flexible.28.What does the underlined sentence “It’s what made us.” in Paragraph 7 imply?A.The author is at ease with his family members.B.The author is aware of the importance of customs.C.Cuisine culture helps shape our identity.D.Culture shocks make a harmonious family.(2023·江苏南京·校联考一模)Get up at 6 am, arrive at the hospital one hour earlier to help patients check in, and accompany patients during consultations… In recent years, “patient escorts” has emerged as a new industry, and those who have taken on this career are known as “people who sell time”, 26-year-old Zhang Tian is one of them.September 4 was a lucky day for Zhang Tian.

I took a deep breath and carefully considered the idea of welcoming a feline (猫科的) friend into my life.Adopting an animal during the height of the pandemic was far from easy. When my partner and I found Cinnamon, her adoption profile made her out as the perfect kitten. We filled out the paperwork and had a few weeks to prepare for her arrival.When she came home, it became increasingly obvious that Cinnamon didn’t understand “no”, “stop it” or “don’t do that”. She was the worst cat I’ve ever owned. I was beginning to doubt my doctor’s advice.We decided to start taking her for walks. I could barely leave the house before, but my heart couldn’t say no to Cinnamon. Cinnamon showed me what bravery looked like if there was a dog at a park, she would run toward it. She jumped without knowing where she would land. She loved adventure. I found myself mirroring her behavior after a while, jumping out of bed without a second thought. I began to find the motivation to get out of bed in the morning.Cinnamon unfortunately passed away after a medical accident, leaving a cat-sized hole in my heart the day she left us at only six months old. I’m no stranger to sadness or grief, but losing my pet so suddenly was the most confusing emotional experience I’ve ever had.

He needed connection, and this was the only way he knew how to ask for it. So I sat back down and kept quiet. Then he slowed down and began making a rocket. I talked to him about it. We continued like this for a few minutes before I slipped into the conversation: “So what happened today?”It was purely a question, no blame or anger in my tone. I believe that if I had criticized him, the gate that was slowly opening would have shut firmly closed. He told me that the teacher didn’t let him do what he knew well due to safety but asked him to do what he disliked. He also admitted that he had enjoyed making her run around and saw it as a game.

When other nine-year-old kids were playing games, she was working at a petrol station. When other teens were studying, or going out, she struggled to find a place to sleep on the street. But she overcame these terrible setbacks to win a highly competitive scholarship and gain entry to Harvard University. And her amazing story has inspired a movie, “Homeless to Harvard: The Liz Murray Story” shown in late April.Liz Murray, a 22-year-old American girl, has been writing a real-life story of willpower and determination. Liz grew up in the shadow of two drug-addicted parents. There was never enough food or warm clothes in the house. Liz was the only member of the family who had a job. Her mother had AIDS and died when Liz was just 15 years old. The effect of that LOSS became a turning point in her life. Connecting the environment in which she had grown up with how her mother had died, she decided to do something about it.Liz went back to school. She threw herself into her studies, never telling her teachers that she was homeless. At night, she lived on the streets. “What drove me to live on had something to do with understanding, by understanding that there was a whole other w ay of being. I had only experienced a small part of the society,” she wrote in her book Breaking Night.She admitted that she used envy to drive herself on. She used the benefits that come easily to others, such as a safe living environment, to encourage herself that “next to nothing could hold me down”. She finished high school in just two years and won a full scholarship to study at Harvard University, but Liz decided to leave her top university a couple of months earlier this year in order to take care of her father, who has also developed AIDS. “I love my parents so much. They are drug addicts. But I never forget that they love me all the time.”Liz wants moviegoers to come away with the idea that changing your life is “as simple as making a decision”.1.The main idea of the passage is __________.A. why Liz loved her parents so muchB. how Liz struggled to change her lifeC. what a hard time Liz had in her childhoodD. how Liz managed to enter Harvard University2.What actually made her go towards her goal?A.

She needed to travel more around the world.B. She would do something for her own life.C. She could hardly understand the society.D. She had little experience of social life.【答案】1.B2.A3.B考点:考查记叙文阅读【题型】阅读理解【难度】较难4.阅读理解阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。
