More apparent reasonableness followed. There will now be a seven-day wait for the jobseeker’s allowance. “Those first few days should be spent looking for work, not looking to sign on.” he claimed. “We’re doing these things because we know they help people say off benefits and help those on benefits get into work faster” Help? Really? On first hearing, this was the socially concerned chancellor, trying to change lives for the better, complete with “reforms” to an obviously indulgent system that demands too little effort from the newly unemployed to find work, and subsides laziness. What motivated him, we were to understand, was his zeal for “fundamental fairness”-protecting the taxpayer, controlling spending and ensuring that only the most deserving claimants received their benefits.

Passenger pigeons(旅鸽)once flew over much of the United States in unbelievable numbers. Written accounts from the 18th and 19th centuries described flocks so large that they darkened the sky for hours. It was calculated that when its population reach its highest point, there were more than 3 billion passenger pigeons – a number equal to 24 to 40 percent of the total bird population in the United States, making it perhaps the most abundant birds in the world. Even as late as 1870 when their numbers had already become smaller, a flock believed to be 1 mile wide and 320 miles (about 515 kilometers) long was seen near Cincinnati. Sadly, the abundance of passenger pigeons may have been their undoing. Where the birds were abundant, people believed there was an ever-lasting supply and killed them by the thousands. Commercial hunters attracted them to small clearings with grain, waited until pigeons had settled to feed, then threw large nets over them, taking hundreds at a time.

1.2014年普通高等学校招生全国统一考试(课标全国卷I)完形填空精解及参考译文今年全国卷完形填空与去年文体风格相近,一改前几年的高考完形填空均属夹叙夹议,小故事,大道理型的文章,变为一篇介绍人的兴趣和关注度会随着时间推移而变化的说明文。

试题覆盖面广,但以实词的考查为主,其中名词题9道,动词4道,形容词4道,副词3道。

今年完形填空的题项设计更科学,更强调语篇分析和理解的连贯性。

材料中没有较多生词障碍,总体上难度与去年持平。

文章大意】本文是一篇议论文。

第一句是论点:通常来说,各种形式的活动如果按常规去做都会导致厌倦。

然后从孩子,到学生,再到成年人,每个阶段都举例说明。

读完文章之后,你会感觉确实如此。

因为写的是每个人身上可能发生的事,所以用常识判断的地方较多,所举的例子结构差不多,都是从喜欢到厌倦,抓住这个宗旨,文章还是比较简单的。

[语篇解读]本文为议论文,题材为社会生活类。

文章主要讲述了各种活动一旦成为我们日常生活的一部分,无论哪个年龄阶段的人都会感到无聊。

答案】B解析】作者在文章的开头的第一句话告诉我们 : As a general rule , all forms of activity lead to boredom when they are performed on a routine basis(作为一般规律,无论何种形式的活动一旦作为常规反复出现都会导致无聊)”。

接着作者用41空指这一规律在日常工作中也会出现,四个选项中与上文“ule "相近的词只有principle(原则,法则)”,故本题正确答案应选B。

41 . A根据上文的As a general rule 可知各种活动一旦成为我们日常生活的一部分,无论哪个年龄阶段的人都会感到无聊,这是一种法则,故选A项。

A:原理,原则;B:习惯;C:方式,方法;D:能力,权力。

42 •考点】本题考查语篇理解中的综合照应”。

由语境确定B。

7、【答案】Cworkout【解析】……适当的精神训练能够明显改善我们的基本认知……。

Workout 有锻炼练习的意思,因此正确答案为C。

8、【答案】Dfunctions【解析】……适当的精神训练能够改善我们基本的认知……,根据语境和段落大意可以判断出,这里表示人脑的基本的认知功能。

【解析】本句句意,思考是大脑中的神经连接……。

根据常识,思考是一个过程,并且通过脑神经相互接触来完成,其他选项表示渠道、序列、条件,均不符合常识。

因此正确答案是表示过程的C选项。

(about 515kilometers)long was seen near Cincinnati.Sadly,the abundance of passenger pigeons may have been their undoing.Where the birds were most abundant,people believed there was an ever﹣lasting supply and killed them by the thousands.Commercial hunters attracted them to small clearings with grain,waited until pigeons had settled to feed,then threw large nets over them,taking hundreds at a time.The birds were shipped to large cities and sold in restaurants.By the closing decades of the 19th century,the hardwood forests where passenger pigeons nested had been damaged by Americans'need for wood,which scattered (驱散)the flocks and forced the birds to go farther north,where cold temperatures and spring storms contributed to their decline.Soon the great flocks were gone,never to be seen again.In 1897,the state of Michigan passed a law prohibiting the killing of passenger pigeons,but by then,no sizable flocks had been seen in the state for 10years.The last confirmed wild pigeon in the United States was shot by a boy in Pike County,Ohio,in 1900.For a time,a few birds survived under human care.The last of them,known affectionately as Martha,died at the Cincinnati Zoological Garden on September 1,1914.24.In the 18th and early 19th centuries,passenger pigeons.A.were the biggest bird in the worldB.lived mainly in the south of AmericaC.did great harm to the natural environmentD.were the largest bird population in the US25.The underlined word"undoing"probably refers to the pigeons'.A.escape B.ruin C.liberation D.evolution 26.What was the main reason for people to kill passenger pigeons?A.To seek pleasure B.To save other birdsC.To make money D.To protect crops.27.What can we infer about the law passed in Michigan?A.It was ignored by the public B.It was declared too late.C.It was unfair D.It was strict.28.(12分)A typical lion tamer (驯兽师)in people's mind is an entertainer holding a whip (鞭)and a chair.The whip gets all of the attention,but it's mostly for show.In reality,it's the chair that does the important work.When a lion tamer holds a chair in front of the lion's face,the lion tries to focus on all four legs of the chair at the same time.With its focus divided,the lion becomes confused and is unsure about what to do next.When faced with so many options,the lion chooses to freeze and wait instead of attacking the man holding the chair.How often do you find yourself in the same position as the lion?How often do you have something you want to achieve (e.g.lose weight,start a business,travel more)﹣﹣﹣﹣only to end up confused by all of the options in front of you and never make progress?This upsets me to no end because while all the experts are busy debating about which option is best,the people who want to improve their lives are left confused by all of the conflicting information.The end result is that we feel like we can't focus or that we're focused on the wrong things,and so we take less action,make less progress,and stay the same when we could be improving.It doesn't have to be that way.Anytime you find the world waving a chair in your face,remember this:All you need to do is focus on one thing.You just need to get started.Starting before you feel ready is one of the habits of successful people.If you have somewhere you want to go,something you want to accomplish,someone you want to become …take immediate action.If you're clear about where you want to go,the rest of the world will either help you get there or get out of the way.28.Why does the lion tamer use a chair?A.To show off his skills.B.To trick the lion.C.To get ready for a fight.D.To entertain the audience.29.In what sense are people similar to a lion facing a chair?A.They feel puzzled over choices.B.They hold on to the wrong things.C.They find it hard to make changed.D.They have to do something for show.30.What is the author's attitude towards the experts mentioned in Paragraph 3?A.Tolerant B.Doubtful C.Respectful D.Supportive.31.When the world is"waving a chair in your face",you're advised to.A.wait for a better chanceB.break your old habitsC.make a quick decisionD.ask for clear guidance.32.(12分)As more and more people speak the global languages of English,Chinese,Spanish,and Arabic,other languages are rapidly disappearing.In fact,half of the 6,000﹣7,000languages spoken around the world today will likely die out by the next century,according to the United Nations Educational,Scientific,and Cultural Organization (UNESCO).In an effort to prevent language loss,scholars from a number of organizations﹣﹣﹣﹣UNESCO and National Geographic among them﹣﹣﹣﹣have for many years been documenting dying languages and the cultures they reflect.Mark Turin,a scientist at the Macmillan Center,Yale University,who specializes in the languages and oral traditions of the Himalayas,is following in that tradition.His recently published book,A grammar of Thangmi with an Ethnolinguistic Introduction to the Speakers and Their Culture,grows out of his experience living,working,andraising a family in a village in Nepal.Documenting the Thangmi language and culture is just a starting point for Turin,who seeks to include other languages and oral traditions across the Himalayan reaches of India,Nepal,Bhutan,and China.But he is not content to simply record these voices before they disappear without record.At the University of Cambridge Turin discovered a wealth of important materials﹣﹣﹣﹣including photographs,films,tape recordings,and field notes﹣﹣﹣﹣which had remained unstudied and were badly in need of care and protection.Now,through the two organizations that he has founded﹣﹣﹣﹣the Digital Himalaya Project and the World Oral Literature Project﹣﹣﹣﹣Turin has started a campaign to make such documents,found in libraries and stores around the world,available not just to scholars but to the younger generations of communities from whom the materials were originally collected.Thanks to digital technology and the widely available Internet,Turin notes,the endangered languages can be saved and reconnected with speech communities.32.Many scholars are making efforts to.A.promote global languageB.rescue disappearing languagesC.search for language communitiesD.set up language research organizations33.What does"that tradition"in Paragraph 3refer to?A.Having full records of the languages.B.Writing books on language teaching.C.Telling stories about language users.D.Living with the native speakers.34.What is Turin's book based on?A.The cultural studies in India.B.The documents available at Yale.C.His language research in Bhutan.D.His personal experience in Nepal.35.Which of the following best describes Turin's work?A.Write,sell and donate.B.Record,repair and reward.C.Design,experiment and report.D.Collect,protect and reconnect.第二节(共1小题;每小题15分,满分15分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项.选项中有两项为多余选项.36.(15分)The jobs of the future have not yet been invented.(36)By helping them develop classic

numbers.Written accounts from the 18th and 19th centuries described flocks(群)so large that they darkened the sky for hours.It was calculated that when its population reached its highest point,there were more than 3 billion passenger pigeons﹣a number equal to 24to 40percent of the total bird population in the United States,making it perhaps the most abundant bird in the world.Even as late as 1870when their numbers had already become smaller,a flock believed to be 1mile wide and 320miles (about 515kilometers)long was seen near Cincinnati.Sadly,the abundance of passenger pigeons may have been their undoing.Where the birds were most abundant,people believed there was an ever﹣lasting supply and killed them by the thousands.Commercial hunters attracted them to small clearings with

of the lion's face,the lion tries to focus on all four legs of the chair at the same time"可知,当驯兽师拿着椅子在狮子面前时,狮子关注椅子的四条腿,因此椅子用是用来戏耍狮子的.故选A.。

2014年广东高考完形填空与阅读参考译文

绝密★启用前试卷类型:B2014年普通高等学校招生全国统一考试(广东卷)I 语言知识及应用(共两节,满分45分)第一节完形填空参考译文父母们认为与青少年一起生活很难。

反过来讲,青少年对父母也有类似的想法,认为与他们一起生活太不容易了。

最近的一项研究表明,父母与青少年之间最常见的争执是关于不整洁和日常事务。

一方面,父母见到凌乱的屋子、扔在地板上的衣服便会抓狂,而孩子们还拒绝帮着做家务。

另一方面,当父母指责他们把毛巾丢在卫生间里,没打扫自己的房间,或者拒绝去超市购物时,青少年经常就失去耐心。

由圣乔治大学主持的这项研究表明,不同的父母有不同的解决那些问题的方法。

然而,一些方法比另一些方法更有效。

例如,那些因不整洁而对孩子大声吼叫的父母,稍后会替他们打扫房间,这样便更没有机会改变他们孩子的行为了。

正相反,那些让青少年体会到自己行为后果的父母可能做得更好些。

例如,当不帮助父母采购的青少年在冰箱里找不到喜欢的饮料时,他们要被迫重新考虑他们的行为。

心理学家说,沟通是父母与子女关系中最重要的环节。

父母应当一边讲给孩子听,一边倾听孩子想说的话。

当孩子不整洁时,父母可以责骂他们,但也应理解他们的房间是他们的私人空间。

沟通是双向的过程。

只有通过相互倾听和相互理解,父母和孩子之间存在的问题才能得到解决。

A参考译文塞缪尔•奥斯蒙德(Samuel Osmond)是一名19岁的法律系学生,来自英国康沃尔郡。

他从没学过钢琴。

但他只要听过几分钟,就能弹奏诸如肖邦和贝多芬等音乐家非常难的音乐作品。

他通过一部分一部分地聆听音乐来学习,然后在脑中思考这些音符。

2年前,他演奏了自己的第一首作品,贝多芬的《月光奏鸣曲》,震惊了周围的所有人。

他记住了这首又长又难的乐曲并完美地演奏了出来,对此他的老师感到很吃惊,说塞缪尔令人难以置信。

[语篇解读]本文为议论文,题材为社会生活类。

文章主要讲述了各种活动一旦成为我们日常生活的一部分,无论哪个年龄阶段的人都会感到无聊。

41.【考点】本题考查语篇理解中的“前位照应”。

【答案】B【解析】作者在文章的开头的第一句话告诉我们:“As a general rule,all forms of activity 1ead to boredom when they are performed on a routine basis(作为一般规律,无论何种形式的活动一旦作为常规反复出现都会导致无聊)”。

接着作者用41空指这一规律在日常工作中也会出现,四个选项中与上文“rule”相近的词只有“principle(原则,法则)”,故本题正确答案应选B。

41.A 根据上文的As a general rule可知各种活动一旦成为我们日常生活的一部分,无论哪个年龄阶段的人都会感到无聊,这是一种法则,故选A项。

A:原理,原则;B:习惯;C:方式,方法;D:能力,权力。

42.【考点】本题考查语篇理解中的“综合照应”。

【答案】D【解析】通读全篇会发现本文列举了从孩子到老人等各种不同年龄段(all ages)的人们兴趣改变的实例,D符合文意要求,为正确答案。

42.D根据下文列举的例子可知,这一法则适用于各个年龄阶段的人,故选D 项。

43.【考点】本题考查语篇理解中的“常识推断”。

【答案】C【解析】依据西方习俗,圣诞节的早晨孩子们都会收到父母藏在袜子里的礼物,立刻动手玩耍这些新玩具(play with the new toys)是很自然的事情,C选项符合上下文语境,为正确答案。

43.C根据常识,玩具当然是用来玩耍的,故选C项。

44.【考点】本题考查语篇理解中的“措辞界定”。

【答案】B【解析】本文主题谈的是兴趣的变化,且下文的“wear off(磨损;逐渐消逝)”也常与“interest”搭配,因此B选项放在这里符合上下文要求,为正确答案。

44.B根据下文47空后的interest可知选B项。

A:信心;B:兴趣;C:忧虑,焦虑;D:悲伤。

45.【考点】本题考查考生“措辞界定”。

【答案】A【解析】设空所在句的句意为:“但是他们对新的圣诞节玩具的兴趣很快会消退,仅到一月份你就会发现这些玩具已经被存放在地下室里了。

”A选项“same”强调“同样的、同一的”,与上下文语义相符,为正确答案。

45.A 到一月份的时候,同样的那些玩具就被发现被弃置在地下室里了。

46.【考点】本题考查语篇理解中词汇的“近义照应”。

【答案】C【解析】设空前一句的句意为:“这个世界充满了未装满的邮票专辑和未完成的模型。

”英语中经常使用“and”将两个意义接近的词并列连在一起“half-filled(未填满的)”和“unfinished(未完成的)”意义相近,且符合上下文,故C选项为正确答案。

46.D根据下文unfinished models可推断世界上充满了没有完成的集邮册,故选D项。

47.【考点】本题考查语篇理解中的“措辞界定”。

【答案】B【解析】设空所在句的意思是:“那些(未完成的东西)摆在那里似乎只是对人们一时兴起的某项工作或作品的纪念物。

”四个选项中只有“passing(一时的、短暂的)”与下文语义相符,敌B选项为正确答案。

47.B 既然这些集邮册和模型没有完成,当然只是人们对它们往昔兴趣的一种纪念,故选B项。

A:宽广的;B:过往的;C:不同的;D:主要的。

48.【考点】本题考查语篇理解中的“常识推断”。

【答案】D【解析】设空所在句的意思是:“当父母给孩子们领回家一只小宠物时,孩子总是高兴地给它洗澡,刷它的毛”。

四个选项中,只有D选项“gladly”可以表示“高兴地,兴奋地”,与上下文语义相符,为正确答案。

48.C当父母把宠物带回家的时候,他们的孩子会很高兴地为宠物洗澡和梳理毛发。

A:寂静地,沉默地;B:不耐烦地;C:高兴地;D:担忧地。

49.【考点】本题考查语篇理解中的“逻辑推断”和“综合照应”。

【答案】B【解析】设空所在句的句意为:“然而,在很短的时间内,照顾动物的负担就转交给父母了”。

在孩子的眼里,失去兴趣的工作自然就是一种“burden(负担)”,B选项与上下文语义相符,为正确答案。

49.B然而,不久照料动物的责任就交给父母了。

A:诺言;B:负担;C:权利;D:游戏,比赛。

50.【考点】本题考查语篇理解中的“常识推断”。

【答案】D【解析】设空所在句的句意为:“青少年进入高中总是很兴奋,”D选项“excitement(激动、兴奋)”符合生活常识,放在这里最合适。

50.D青少年刚进人中学的时候很兴奋,但很快就盼着毕业了。

A:勇气;B:冷静,沉着,平静;C:混淆;D:兴奋。

51.【考点】本题考查语篇理解中的“逻辑推断”和“综合照应”。

【答案】A【解析】作者在上下文所举的几个实例中,都说明随着时间的推移兴趣会发生改变,学生初上高中的新鲜感过去后,自然会对日复一日的学习生活感到枯燥,因而盼望着早日毕业,A选项“graduation(毕业)”与上下文语义相符,为正确答案。

51.A解析见上题。

A:毕业;B:独立,自立;C:责任,职责;D:成功。

52.【考点】本题考查语篇理解中的“常识推断”和“综合照应”。

【答案】C【解析】52至54题是一句话,解题需要整体理解,整句的句意为:“有多少成年人,当他们刚获得驾照时,曾那么急切地要开上车一连几个小时不停地兜风,现在却在为每日要开很长时间的车上下班而抱怨不已。

”由于作者分别以不同年龄段来举例,能开车的应该是成年人,所以正确答案应该是C选项“adults”。

52.C根据下文驾驶汽车可判断空格处指的是具有驾驶资格的成年人,故选C项。

53.【考点】本题考查对上下文的综合理解和“常识推断”。

【答案】B【解析】本句译文可参见上一题,B选项“eagerly(急切地;渴望地)”最符合上下文句意,为正确选项。

53.B 根据上文很多成年人现在抱怨开很长时间的车上班的事实,可推断他们刚拿到驾照时渴望连续几个小时驾车,故选B项。

A:仔细地,小心地;B:渴望地,热切地;C:紧张地;D:勇敢地。

54.【考点】本题考查语篇理解中的“综合照应”。

【答案】B【解析】译文同样见52题。

参照对上一题的分析,本题正确选项应为B。

“obtain their driver’s licenses”是“获取驾照”的意思。

54.B解析见上文。

obtain a driver’s license获得驾照。

55.【考点】本题考查语篇理解中的“下文照应”。

【答案】C【解析】设空所在句的句意为:“人们退休之前,通常会筹划做很多事情。

”根据下文我们知道这些事情都是他们在工作时没时间完成的事情,因此他们在未退休时只能去设想并计划(plan)它。

因此正确答案是C 项。

55.D 在退休前,人们计划做很多伟大的但在工作时没时间做的事情。

plan to do sth.意为“计划做某事”。

56.【考点】本题考查语篇理解中的“措辞界定”。

【答案】A【解析】因工作太忙而无暇顾及的事情不会是小事情,故此题A选项“great”最符合题意,为正确选项。

56.A根据下文的例子可知选A项。

A:美好的,伟大的;B:奇怪的,陌生的;C:困难的;D:正确的。

57.【考点】本题考查语篇理解中的“常识推断”和“综合照应”。

【答案】A【解析】根据上下文和常识我们知道,这些事情人们做不了,是因为工作太忙抽不出时间来,而并非因为没有“money(金钱)”、“ski11(技术)”或“knowledge(知识)”,故此题A选项“time”最符合题意,为正确选项。

57.A计划退休后做的事,这些事当然是工作时没有“时间”做的。

58.【考点】本题考查语篇理解中的“上文照应”。

【答案】D【解析】设空所在句的句意为:“但退休后不久,打高尔夫,钓鱼,阅读和所有其他的消遣都变得与他们所离开的工作一样的无聊”。

参照对前几例的分析,这里提供的四个选项只有D选项“soon”可以表示“很快、不久”,符合上下文,放在这里最为合理。

58.D但是,退休后不久,打高尔夫、钓鱼、读书和所有其他的消遣方式都变得无聊了。

此处仍然在强调随着时间的推移人们兴趣的减弱,故选D项。

59.【考点】本题考查语篇理解中的“常识推断”。

【答案】D【解析】根据常识我们知道人退休后会离开工作岗位,所以空白处填D选项“left”最为合适。

59.C这些想做的事就像他们离开的工作一样变得索然无味了。

they left是定语从句,修饰限定the jobs。

60.【考点】本题考查语篇理解中的“综合照应”。

【答案】B【解析】作者在文章结尾总结说:“所以,他们都会像那些刚过圣诞节一个月之后的孩子们一样,又去寻找新的玩具去了”。

作者用这个生动的比喻来形容人们兴趣的转变之快,符合此意的答案应该是B选项“toy”。
