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。

A

Sixteen years ago, Eileen Doy le’s husband, an engineer, took his four children up for an early morning cup of tea, packed a small case and was never seen or heard of again. Eileen was astonished and in a state of despair. They had been a happy family and, as far as she knew, there had been nothing wrong with their marriage.

Every day of the year a small group of men and women quietly pack a few belongings and without so much as a note or a good—bye close the front door for the last time, leaving their debts, their worries and their confused families behind them.

Last year, more than 1,200 men and nearly as many women were reported missing from home—the highest in 15 years. Many did return home within a year, but others rejected the past completely and are now living a new life somewhere under a different identity.

To those left behind this form of desertion is a terrible blow to their pride and self- confidence. Even the finality of death might be preferable. At least it does not imply rejection or failure. Worse than that, people can be left with an unfinished marriage, not knowing whether they will have to wait seven years before they are free to start a fresh life.

Clinical psychologist Paul Brown believes most departures of this kind to be well planned rather than impulsive(冲动). ―It’s typical of the kind of personality which seems able to ignore other people’s pain and difficulties. Running away, like killing yourself, is a highly aggressive act. By creating an absence the people left behind feel guilty, upset and empty.‖

56.When her husband left home, Eileen Doyle ______________.

A.could not forgive him for taking the children

B.had been expecting it to happen for some time

C.could not understand why

D.blamed herself for what had happened

57.Most people who leave their families behind them_______.

A.do so without warning B.do so because of their debts

C.come back immediately D.change their names

58.Some people would even prefer the death to the running away of their spouse because .

A.their spouse would feel no pain during the death

B.their spouse death would not be a bit terrible

C.a desertion would not bring a feeling of rejection or failure

D.their spouse’s death would make them feel less painful

59.Usually the man or woman left behind with an unfinished marriage __________.

A.admits responsibility for the situation

B.wishes the person who has left were dead

C.will come back within a year

D.will have no legal marriage life for seven years

B

Are you a team person? Are you at your best as part of a small, tightly united group of dedicated workers?

If so, the future may hold more for you than you think.

High technology, some predicted, would make team work a thing of the past. That’s happening in those areas of business and data processing where one person and a computer can replace a team of workers.

But, elsewhere, teamwork is very much alive. High technology has led to a new type of teamwork in a number of fields, including advertising, scientific research, engineering design, architecture and ocean exploration. Through computer networking, scientists, engineers and technicians at different locations – often thousands of miles apart – can work on the same project at once. They can exchange ideas, try out different designs and test their results.

Examples? An engineering team can now design and try out a robot system, a new manufacturing process, or an entire factory before it is built. An architectural team can do the same with a building or a bridge. A medical team can simulate (模拟) a dangerous operation before performing it on a patient.

Of course, computer – assisted team effort doesn’t end with investigation and simulation. It now usually continues into actual design, manufacturing and testing. ―Computer –aide design (CAD) and computer –aided manufacture (CAM) are breaking down barriers between traditional design and manufacturing functions,‖ explains Dr. Prakash Rao, an engineering manager at General Electric. ―Interdisciplinary (跨学科的) teams and engineers follow a product from concept to production. Everything is interconnected like a network.‖

Sometimes a computer – aided effort can extend beyond production. A team that produces robots may use them to explore space and ocean depth. For high – technology team work, the future seems limitless. 61.The underlined part ―hold more‖ most probably means to .

A.maintain more chances B.give more rights

C.make more regulations D.store more information

62.According to the passage, the writer believers that .

A.teamwork requires more use of computers than that of human beings

B.teamwork will be completely replaced by computers

C.the concept of teamwork is still alive and no longer the same as the past

D.high technology would make teamwork a thing of the past

63.The examples given by the writer in Paragraph 4 serve .

A.to prove high technology has a promising future

B.to explain his idea of new type of teamwork is reasonable

C.to show that it tends to be an end to teamwork soon

D.to indicate the computer – assisted team effort just means investigation and simulation. 64.Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?

A.Many fields of science and technology are now using computers effectively.

B.No details are given in the passage about barriers between traditional design and manufacturing functions.

C.Experts from different fields have to cooperate to develop a product from concept to production.

D.High technology is nothing but a new type of teamwork plus CAD and CAM.

65.The author’s attitude to towards the introduction of the computer to teamwork is of .

A.objection B.indifference C.support D.doubt

C

Proper arrangement of classroom space is important to encouraging interaction. Most of us have noticed how important physical setting is to efficiency and comfort in our work. College classroom space should be designed to encourage the activity of critical thinking.

We have entered the 21 st century, but step into almost any college classroom and you step back in time

at least a hundred years. Desks are normally in straight rows, so students can clearly see the teacher but not all their classmates. The message behind such an arrangement is obvious. Everything of importance comes from the teacher.

With a little imagination and effort, unless desks are fixed to the floor, the teacher can correct this situation and create space that encourage interchange among students. In small or standard-size classes, chairs, desks, and tables can be arranged in a variety of ways. The primary goal should be for everyone to be able to see everyone else. Large classes, particularly those held in lecture halls, unfortunately, allow much less flexibility.

Arrangement of the classroom should also make it easy to divide students into small groups for discussion or problem-solving exercises. Small classes with movable desks and tables present no problem. Even in large lecture halls, it is possible for students to turn around and form groups of four to six. Breaking a class into small groups provides more opportunities for students to interact with each other, think out loud, and see how other students’ thinking processes operate all essential elements in developing new modes of critical thinking.

In courses that regularly use a small group format, students might be asked to stay in the same small groups throughout the course. A colleague of mine, John, allows students to move around during the first two weeks, until they find a group they are comfortable with. John then asks them to stay in the same seat, with the same group, from that time on. This not only creates a comfortable setting for interaction but helps him learn students’ names and faces.

66.The primary purpose of desk rearrangement is_______.

A.for the teacher to divide students into small groups.

B.to make it possible for students to interact with each other.

C.for the teacher to find out how students think.

D.to give students more opportunities to practice speaking.

67.The expression ―step back in time at least a hundred years‖ in Paragraph 2 is intended to convey the idea that .

A.there is not much change in educational idea over the past hundred years

B.critical thinking was encouraged even a century ago

C.college classrooms often remind people of their college life

D.a hundred years ago, desk arrangement in a classroom was quite different

68.The greatest advantage in allowing each student to find his own group might be that________ A.learning is made comfortable in this way

B.t he teacher can easily remember students’ names and faces

C.the teacher saves the trouble in doing that

D.brighter students can help slower ones.

69.It is implied in the passage that .

A.students are allowed to changed groups throughout the course in John’s class

B.classroom interaction between students is essential to the teachers

C.a comfortable environment leads to higher working efficiency

D.new kinds of desks and chairs should be made

70.The author mentioned John in the last paragraph in order to ________

A.create a comfortable setting for interaction

B.i ntroduce an approach of learning students’ names and faces easily

C.give an example that students stay in the same seat throughout the course.

D.describe a good seat-arrangement mode in courses with small group format.

Some critics of American society say that dishonesty is rampant (猖獗) in the Federal Government. One example they city took place during March and April, 1980. For a whole month, they say, the United States lied to its allies (同盟国).

Cyrus Vance, who was then Secretary of State, was given the task of telling Great Britain, Japan, France, Germany and others that the United States would not take military action against Iran as long as we had the cooperation of our allies. Secretary of State Vance knew that the sudden attack to get out the American captives was already planned while he was talking to our allies. But he also knew that the reason for this deliberate lying was to save lives. The primary purpose of the deception(欺骗) was not to trick our allies but to mislead the Iranian kidnappers(绑架者) so that a rescue attempt could take place.

Many students of ethics believe that lying for the sake of one’s country is justifiedin certain cases.In this case, having lied for the sake of his country, Secretary Vance secretly wrote a letter of resignation before the attack took place. By submitting(提交) his resignation before the attack, he showed that the result had nothing to do with his resignation. It can be said that former Secretary of State Vance deceived other governments only for humanitarian reasons. Then, once he had lied, he resigned.

In that case, it is argued, lying may be justified. Without the deception, the rescue mission could not have taken place. Of course, dishonesty in government—at local, state and national levels—does not always have such noble reasons.A prime example is the so called Watergate Affair.

Most Americans were surprised and outraged by the news of Watergate Affair. But many Europeans were surprised at our surprise. Some European observers explained that they tend to think of lying;cheating, deception and corruption(腐败) as part of politics and government.

71.Secretary of State, Cyrus Vance lied, to the allies__________.

A.to mislead Iranian government B.on the purpose of saving lives

C.for the sake of his own benefit D.in order to get their cooperation

72.From the passage we learn that the United States ___________.

A.tricked their allies into attacking Iran

B.took military action to capture Iranian kidnappers

C.undertook a rescue mission with the help of their allies

D.carried out an attack to rescue some Americans from the Iranian kidnappers

73.According to the passage, many students regard Vance’s lying as________.

A.a reason for his resignation B.reasonable and acceptable

C.unbelievable and unreasonable D.an indication of his dishonesty

74.The author, like most Americans, regards the Watergate Affair as___________.

A.uncommon in politics and government

B.part of politics and government

C.justified dishonesty in government

D.a lie with noble reason

75.What is the best title of the passage?

A.The US government – a responsible government.

B.Cooperation means military success.

C.Should all dishonesty be criticized?

D.Lying, a normal phenomenon in Europe.

Cameron Bradley had always dreamed of a big church wedding. She wanted a couple hundred guests and a reception at a country club with a band. But when the economy was getting worse, and her fiancé’s salary was cut, she knew they couldn’t afford that kind of wedding. So they threw out tradition and chose a ―destination‖ wedding in Costa Rica.

Destination weddings, in foreign countries, have been increasingly popular in recent years. But many couples are now discovering that they can, surprisingly, be cheaper---if you go against tradition and shop for good deals. ―for sure, destination weddings are becoming more attractive due to the declining economy,‖ said Quentin Carmichael, marketing and sales manager for the website Destination https://www.doczj.com/doc/eb231785.html,, which had an almost 10% increase in weddings under deposit this year compared to the same time last year. ―It’s more affordable than having a traditional wedding.

That may be hard to believe, but the big savings come in trimming the guest list. The average number of guests attending a destination wedding is 47, compared to 165 for a traditional wedding, according to Michelle Panzer, writer for Brides Magazine.

Most couples only pay for themselves to travel to the destination. That means guests must pay out their own money if they want to come, a sure way to keep the guest list small.

While the average cost of a traditional wedding is $27,852, according to Brides Magazine, Michelle said most couples spent less than $10,000 for a destination wedding, with a reception at home.

The top destination wedding spot is Mexico, with its many beautiful sites, followed by Jamaica, Dominican Republic, Hawaii and the Bahamas.

A. a destination wedding can save more money than a traditional wedding.

B. people don’t pay a lot of money in a traditional wedding.

D. a traditional wedding makes people more tired than a destination wedding.

C. throwing away

D. cutting down

64. We can learn from the passage that __________.

A. young couples’ favorite we dding place is in Europe

B. more young people are becoming tired of church weddings

C. guests pay their travelling expenses to a destination wedding

D. Destination https://www.doczj.com/doc/eb231785.html, is a free website for wedding planning

Near a San Francisco freeway choked with cars, Jason Mark shows off rows of strawberries, cucumbers and other kinds of vegetables. ―It’s time to water,‖ he says, smiling.

Mark helps manage Alemany Farm, a volunteer-run garden that’s an example of what the San Francisco mayor wants to copy all over the city: community gardens on empty city-owned lots.

Alemany Farm is at the forefront of a renewed interest in urban farming nationwide, from Michelle Obama’s garden on the White House south lawn to the boom of backyard farming in New York City.

34-year-old Mark often reads environmental trends in Earth Island Journal and can recite the names of urban farms from Milwaukee to Philadelphia. V olunteer farmers grow food that provides not only for those who work in the garden, but also for neighbors, food kitchens and school lunchrooms.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture says there are thousands of community gardens throughout the country. The USDA is calling for more community gardens across the country, with Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack declaring the week of Aug.23 ―National Community Gardening Week‖. Vilsack also mentioned the USDA’s own backyard garden, donating produce to DC Central Kitchen, which distributes food to homeless people on the National Mall.

Urban farming isn’t new. The American Community Gardening Association held its 30th annual conference this month. But city officials used to fight gardens that took up public property (财产), or just ignore them. Now , perhaps because of the recession (经济衰退) and increased needs in food pantries (储藏室), city leaders are accepting urban gardens –or farms, as many like to be called.

The main cost to the city is the water provided to the volunteer gardens. Donations from volunteers pay for the seeds and other supplies.

66.The San Francisco mayor __________.

A. is a volunteer himself on Alemany Farm.

B. is in charge of all the city’s volunteer-run gardens.

C. wishes to turn the empty lots in the city into community gardens.

D. wishes to build garden along the San Francisco freeway.

67. We can learn from the third paragraph that ________.

A. urban farming is becoming very popular.

B. Alemany Farm is the first built community garden.

C. People are getting interested in farming in the countryside.

D. Michelle Obama started the campaign of urban farming.

68. It can be inferred from the passage that ________.

A. urban farming has a short history of around ten years.

B. city officials weren’t in favor of community gardens.

C. Earh Island Journal is a magazine on environmental protection.

D. Mark visited many urban farms from Milwaukee to Philadelphia.

69. To support the community gardens, the city needs to pay most for ___________.

A. the seeds

B. the water

C. the farming

D. the training for the volunteers

70. What would be the bes title of the passage?

A. White House to plant organic vegetable garden.

B. The eco-friendly backyard.

C. A vegetable garden grows at San Francisco

D. Cities grow food where they can

A professional matchmaker (媒人) breaks the ice as 40 people aged in their twenties and thirties gather at a hotel for a blind date.

Mass blind dates are common in South Korea but there's something unusual about this event in Asan: The city government is the one playing a part.

"Matchmaking is no longer a personal business, it's the duty of the nation," Yu Yang-Sun, a municipal official organizing the recent event, said in the city 90 km south of Seoul.

"Newborn babies are hardly seen here these days. If the young grow older unmarried and produce no kids, the nation will no longer have the basic human resources to sustain itself."

Asan's birthrate is 1.08, much lower even than the low national average, according to Ko Bun-Ja, one of Yu's deputies helping organize the event.

Five hours into the mass blind-date session, 12 of the 40 had decided to keep dating - much to the delight of city officials.

After years of promoting family planning in the nation of 48.6 million, South Korea in recent years has become increasingly alarmed at the prospect of an aging society - with a huge bill on pensions and too few workers to sustain economic growth.

The government is increasing the number of nursery schools and providing more financial support - such as tax breaks or supported baby-sitting - for married couples who start families. Cash gifts are sometimes provided for newborn babies.

But the birthrate - the average number of babies who were born during a woman's lifetime - remained near the world's lowest at 1.19 last year. Fears are growing that the population will start to be reduced within a decade.

Officials say the nation's low birthrate is partly due to more women joining the workforce and the lack of a comprehensive welfare system.

The high cost of child-rearing is also an obstacle.

Household spending on education reached an all-time high of 39.8 trillion won ($29.5 billion) last year, up 7.7 percent from a year earlier despite the economic downturn.

"This is a country where it's really uncomfortable to marry and raise children, given the shocking cost of education," said Bang Jeong-Ju, 30, one of the women on the blind date in Asan.

"My friends all say that if you cannot afford to give your kids a really good education, just don't get pregnant. Otherwise, pregnancy would be a sin."

71.The low birthrate of South Korea is partly caused by _______.

A. the high cost of bringing children up.

B. the high tax

C. the government’s laziness

D. more old people

72. It can be inferred from the text that _______.

A. the population of South Korea is increasing in ten years.

B. the household expenses on education of South Korea are very high.

C. the blind date isn’t success.

D. at present, there are enough workers in South Korea.

73. The meaning of the underlined word ―child-rearing‖ is that _________.

A. bringing up children

B. taking care of children

C. educating children

D. bed-making

74. The general idea of the passage is that _________.

A. in order to increase Asan’s birthrate, the government of South Korea held a blind date.

B. South Korea tried to give much money to the young people.

C. South Korea made young people happy.

D. the government gave some help to encourage people to communicate with each other.

75. The ―matchmaking‖ in the passage is mainly the business of ______.

A. the head of Asan city

B. the young people

C. the nation

D. the old people

How I Turned to Be Optimistic

I began to grow up that winter night when my parents and were returning from my aunt’s house, and my mother said that we might soon be leaving for America .We were on the bus then ,I was crying, and some people on the bus were turning around to look at me . I remember that I could not bear the thought of never hearing again the radio program for school children to which I listened every morning .

I do not remember myself crying for this reason again. In fact I think cried very little when I was saying goodbye to my friends and relatives ,When we were leaving I thought about all the places I was going to see —the strange and magical places I had know only from books and pictures . the country I was leaving never to come back was hardly in my head then .

The four years that followed taught me the importance of optimism, but the idea did not come to me at once. For the first two years in New York I was really lost –having to study in three schools as a result of family moves. I did not quite know what I was or what I should be. Mother remarried, and things became even more complex for me. Some time passed before my stepfather and I got used to each other. I was often sad, and saw no end to ―the hard times‖

My responsibilities in the family increased a lot since I knew English better than everyone else at home. I wrote letters, filled out forms, translated at interviews with Immigration officers, took my grandparents to the doctor and translated there, and even discussed telephone bills with company representatives.

From my experiences I have learned one important rule : all common troubles eventually go away ! Something good is certain to happen in the end. When you do not give up, and just wait a little! I believe that my life will turn out all right, even though it not be that easy.

C. studied in three different schools

D. got on well with her stepfather

59. What can we learn about the author from Paragraph 4 ?

A few years ago I had an ―aha!‖ moment regarding handwriting.

I had in my hand a sheet of paper with handwritten instructions on it for some sort of editorial task. It occurred at first that I did not recognize the handwriting,and then I realized whose it must be. I finally became aware of the fact that I had been working with this colleague for at least a year,maybe two,and yet I

did not recognize her handwriting at that point.

It was a very important event in the computerization of life—a sign that the informal. Friendly communication of people working together in an office had changed from notes in pen to instant messages and emails. There was a time when our workdays were filled with little letters,and we recognized one another's handwriting the way we knew voices or faces.

As a child visiting my father’s office,I was pleased to recognize,in little notes on the desks of his staff,the same handwriting I would see at home in the notes he would leave on the fridge—except that those notes were signed ―dad‖ instead of ―RFW‖.

All this has been on my mind because of the talk about The Rise and Fall of Handwriting,a book by Florey. Sire shows in her book a deep concern about the fall of handwriting and the failure of schools to teach children to write well,but many others argue that people in a digital age can’t be expected to learn to hold a pen.

I don’t buy it.

I don’t want to see anyone cut off from the expressive,personal associations that a pen still promotes better

than a digital keyboard does. For many a biographer,part of really getting to know their subjects is learning to read their handwriting.

What some people advocate is teaching one of the many attractive handwritings based on the handwriting of 16th-century Italy. That may sound impossibly grand—as if they want kids to learn to draw by copying classical paintings. However,they have worked in many school systems.

61. Why was the author surprised at not recognizing his colleague’s handwriting?

A. He had worked with his colleague long enough.

B. His colleague’s handwriting was so beautiful.

C. His colleague’s handwriting was so terrible.

D. He still had a 1ot of work to do.

62. People working together in an office used to ____________.

A. talk more about handwriting

B. take more notes on workdays

C. know better one another's handwriting

D. communicate better with one another

63. The author’s father wrote notes in pen _________.

A. to both his family and his staff

B. to his family in small letters

C. to his family on the fridge

D. to his staff on the desk

64. According to the author,handwritten notes _______.

A. are harder to teach in schools

B. attract more attention

C. are used only between friends

D. carry more message

65. We can learn from the passage that the author __________.

A. thinks it impossible to teach handwriting

B. does not want to lose handwriting

C. puts the blame on the computer

D. does not agree with Florey

We once had a poster competition in our fifth grade art class.

“You could win prizes,‖our teacher told US as she wrote the poster information on the blackboard.She passed out sheets of construction paper while continuing,“The first prize is ten dollars.You just have to make sure that the words on the blackboard appear somewhere on your poster.”

We studied the board critically.Some of US looked with one eye and held up certain colors against the blackboard,rocking the sheets to the fight or left while we conjured up our designs.Others twisted their hair

around their fingers or chewed their erasers while deep in thought.We had plans for that ten—dollar grand prize,each and every one of US.I'm going to spend mine On candies,one hopeful would announce,while another practiced looking serious,wise and rich.

Everyone in the class made a poster.Some of us used parts of those fancy paper napkins,while others used nothing but colored construction paper.Some of US used big designs,and some of us preferred to gather our art tidily down in one comer of our poster and let the space draw the viewer's attention to it.Some of US would wander past the good students’desks and then return to our own projects with a growing sense of hopelessness.It was yet another grown。up trick of the soil they seemed especially fond of。making all of US believe we had a fair chance,and then always—always--rewarding the same old winners.

I believe I drew a sailboat,but I can’t say that with any certainty.I made it.I admired it.I determined it to be the very best of all of the posters I had seen,and then I turned it in.Minutes passed.No one came along to give me the grand prize,and then someone distracted me,and I probably never would have thought about that poster again.

I was still sitting at my desk,thinking,What poster? when the teacher gave me an envelope

with a ten—dollar bill in it and everyone in the class applauded for me.

66.What was the teacher's requirement for the poster?

A.It must appear in time.

B.It must be done in class.

C.It must be done on a construction sheet.

68.After the teacher’s words,all the students in the class _________.

Next time a customer comes to your office, offer him a cup of coffee. And when you’re doing your holiday shopping online, make sure you’re holding a large glass of iced tea. The physical sensation(感觉) of warmth encourages emotional warmth, while a cold drink in hand prevents you from making unwise decisions—those are the practical lesson being drawn from recent research by psychologist John A. Bargh.

Psychologists have known that one person’s perception(感知) of another’s ―warmth‖ is a powerful determiner in social relationships. Judging someone to be either ―warm‖ or ―cold‖ is a primary consideration, even trumping evidence that a ―cold‖ person may be more capable. Much of this is rooted in very early childhood experiences, Bargh argues, when babies’ conceptual sense of the world around them is shaped by physical sensations, particularly warmth and coldness. Classic studies by Harry Harlow, published in 1958, showed monkeys preferred to stay close to a cloth ―mother‖ rather than one made of wire, even when the wire ―mother‖ carried a food bottle. Harlow’s work and later studies have led psychologists to stre ss the need for

warm physical contact from caregivers to help young children grow into healthy adults with normal social skills.

Feelings of ―warmth‖ and ―coldness‖ in social judgments appear to be universal. Although no worldwide study has been done, Bargh says that describing people as ―warm‖ or ―cold‖ is common to many cultures, and studies have found those perceptions influence judgment in dozens of countries.

To test the relationship between physical and psychological warmth, Bargh conducted an experiment which involved 41 college students. A research assistant who was unaware of the study’s hypotheses(假设), handed the students either a hot cup of coffee, or a cold drink, to hold while the researcher filled out a short information form: The drink was then handed back. After that, the students were asked to rate the personality of ―Person A‖ based on a particular description. Those who had briefly held the warm drink regarded Person A as warmer than those who had held the iced drink.

―We are grounded in our physical experiences even when we think abstractly,‖ says Bargh.

71. According to Paragraph 1, a person’s emotion may be affected by ______.

A. the visitors to his office

B. the psychology lessons he has

C. his physical feeling of coldness

D. the things he has bought online

72. The author mentions Harlow’s experiment to show that ______.

A. adults should develop social skills

B. babies need warm physical contact

C. caregivers should be healthy adults

D. monkeys have social relationships

73. In Bargh’s experiment, the students were asked to ______.

A. evaluate someone’s personality

B. write down their hypotheses

C. fill out a personal information form

D. hold coffee and cold drink alternatively

74. We can infer from the passage that ______.

A. abstract thinking does not come from physical experiences

B. feelings of warmth and coldness are studied worldwide

C. physical temperature affects how we see others

D. capable persons are often cold to others

75. What would be the best title for the passage?

2020-2021高考英语一模试题分类汇编——阅读理解综合及答案解析

一、高中英语阅读理解 1.阅读理解 One of my favorite hobbies is exchanging old-fashioned, paper-with-a-stamp-on-it postcards with random strangers around the world. The Postcrossing Project was created by Paulo Magalhaes in 2005. He liked getting mails—especially postcards. He thought others did, too—but how could he connect with them? That's when he came up with the idea of an online platform (https://www.doczj.com/doc/eb231785.html,): There, postcard lovers like me can sign up to send a postcard to someone who has registered online, and receive a postcard in return. Along with a randomly selected address, participants get a unique code to put on the postcard. When the postcard arrives, the recipient registers that code with the site, which then causes the sender's address to be given to another postcrosser in turn. In practice, this means that for nearly every postcard I send (a few get lost in the mail) I get one back. And since I never know who will send me a card or where in the world they live, every trip to the mailbox holds the potential for a wonderful surprise. Privacy-conscious Americans might worry about sharing their address with strangers overseas. But postcrossers are friendly, polite, respectful folks—in more than 450 cards exchanged, I've yet to have a bad experience. On days when the international news is depressing, postcrossing is my comfort. There's nothing like getting a card from a child in China just learning to write in English, or a grandmother in Belarus describing her most recent gardening success to remind me that we truly are members of one global family, far more similar than we are different. It seems like such a small thing to send out a postcard. But as travel and communication technology continue to shrink the world, it's important to remember that it isn't just for diplomats and politicians to represent our country anymore. All of us have the power—and perhaps the responsibility—to be ambassadors, to show the best of your country to the world. And it's good to know that what you need to accomplish this is not necessarily complicated or expensive. It can be as simple as a postcard. (1)Why did Paulo set up https://www.doczj.com/doc/eb231785.html,? A. To discuss personal hobbies with strangers. B. To exchange postcards with others in the world C. To collect different postcards from other countries. D. To provide a platform for communication online. (2)According to the passage, postcrossers __________. A. don't know who will send them postcards B. are sure to get a postcard back immediately C. often choose a receiver's address carefully D. register every postcard they receive online (3)What did the writer learn from postcrossing? A. The international news is usually depressing. B. Americans are more conscious about privacy. C. Postcrossers sometimes describe their bad experience.

高中英语阅读理解专项练习二(含答案)

A “You can use me as a last resort(选择), and if nobody else volunteers,then I will do it.” This was an actual reply from a parent after I put out a request for volunteers for my kids lacrosse(长曲棍球)club. I guess that there's probably some demanding work schedule, or social anxiety around stepping up to help for an unknown sport. She may just need a little persuading. So I try again and tug at the heartstrings. I mention the single parent with four kids running the show and I talk about the dad coaching a team that his kids aren’t even on … At this point the unwilling parent speaks up,“Alright. Yes, I’ll do it.” I’m secretly relieved because I know there’s real power in sharing volunteer responsibilities among many. The unwilling parent organizes the meal schedule, sends out emails, and collects money for end-of-season gifts. Somewhere along the way, the same parent ends up becoming an invaluable member of the team. The coach is able to focus on the kids while the other parents are relieved to be off the hook for another season. Handing out sliced oranges to bloodthirsty kids can be as exciting as watching your own kid score a goal. Still, most of us volunteers breathe a sigh of relief when the season comes to a close. That relief is coupled with a deep understanding of why the same people keep coming back for more: Connecting to the community(社区)as you freely give your time, money, skills, or services

高中英语新高考-阅读理解指导与解读:复盘阅读C篇阅读心理过程 试卷阅读理解如何分析?仁者见仁智者见智,没有所谓的标准答案。我的理解是,一篇好的阅读解读应该包含,当然各有侧重点不同: 1、背景、内容、主旨 2、词汇和语言 3、语篇的行文特点 4、逻辑关系 5、体裁及其语体特点 6、深层含义 7、现实含义 8、作者意图、观点和态度 每次阅读前都要问自己四点: 1、我是不是总结了本文的宏观结构,是不是其它同话题文章也有同样的结构? 2、文章的主旨在哪些段落里可以反映出来,这些段落的语句可有什么特征被广泛运用? 3、文章反映了作者什么态度,哪些句子或单词可以看出来? 4、段落是如何展开的,是举例、对比还是其它? 每次刷题后也要问自己两点: 1、命题人的设问和文章结构可有关系,或者有什么规律? 2、正确选项和错误选项分别针对文章句子的如何设计的? 下面我就本次某考试阅读C篇来实践一下,实际上这也是我课堂上的循序,当然一般都是通过问题设计。

C 1 The Bible begins with the creation of the world. As a consequence(结果标识词,读到此,应该知道后面的主题句了), in traditional Western thought the world is assumed to have been created by God. (段落中心:上帝创造世界。后面是具体解释了,可以略读)The Earth is associated with whatever is impermanent, imperfect, bodily and sinful. Heaven is the sphere of the permanent, perfect, spiritual and holy.(概念或中心句+具体解释的模式是绝大部分英语论说文的展开模式,关键是中心句的辨认。请关注解释部分里面的情感形容词:perfect, imperfect等,这都是通过对比来突出Heaven) 2 Traditional Chinese thought has no place for the idea of a creation(本句为论点,从上文的西方思想到本段的中国思想,明显是比较). What exists has always existed and shall always do so(always重复,突出中国思想的特色).Accordingly (语篇标识词,此句是照应论点句。这种模式:论点+论据+总结照应,也是很常见的)there is no concept of necessary “improvement”or “correction”of the creation through such means as a Last Judgment. 3 Things are as they are simply because that is the way they are(从because可见这是承接上文,具体解释中国思想了,可扫读一下第4段的首句确定). The natural principle of order, common to all that exists, is called the Way (dao)(新的概念the Way的提出,必然后面要具体解释,这是铁定规律). The Way is not some sort of law or pattern that God or prophets (先知) forced on what exists. It reveals itself in the

For her drive and creativity in overcoming those challenges,she’s been named national teacher of the year. Principal Waynes Kettler said he’s worked with many outstanding teachers in his22years as an educator,but Peterson is“just that one step above anybody I’ve ever worked with before.” Kettler and others at Monte Cristo Elementary School talk about the ways she has introduced the learning from other classrooms into her music program and her creativity in working around things such as the lack of money for new music. When students were reading S.E.Hinton’s novel The Outsiders in their regular classroom, Peterson helped them write a30-minute play with scenes from the book.Then they chose three Broadway tunes that focused no race,equality and social justice,the themes of the book.Peterson composed two other songs herself after classroom discussions about the play and the book. The honor means a lot to residents of Granite Foils.It’s inspiring to know that people from small towns own even win national honors. As national teacher of the year,Peterson will spend the next year outside the classroom, as a national and international spokeswoman for education. Not surprisingly,She is a big believe in the value of arts education.She said it’s essential for schools to offer classes such as art or music and physical education because for some kids one of those subjects is the only thing that motivates them to come back to school day after day. 65.The underlined word“daunting”in Paragraph1most probably means__________.

英语阅读理解文章(作者)意图解题指导.pdf

英语阅读理解文章(作者)意图解题指导教学设计 I.设计思路 《高中英语新课程标准》明确指出:“高中英语课程要有利于学生优化英语学习方法,使他们通过观察、体验、探究等积极主动的学习方法,充分发挥自己的学习潜能,形成有效的学习策略,提高自主学习的能力。” 高考大纲中关于阅读理解的要求:要求考生读懂简易的英语文学作品、科普文章、公告、说明、广告以及书、报、杂志中关于一般性话题的简短文章并回答相关问题。考生应能: 1、理解主旨要义; 2、理解文中具体信息; 3、根据上下文推断生词的词义; 4、作出简单判断和理解; 5、理解文章的基本结构; 6、理解作者的意图和态度; 7、根据所读,用恰当的词语补全文章提纲、概括关键内容 或作要词词语转换。 因此有关阅读理解题目主要有以下四种: 主旨大意型 事实细节型 词义猜测型 推理判断型 让我们比较一下近两年江苏高考卷阅读理解题的分类题量。

2010年高考阅读理解推理判断题型中要求考生能把握文脉逻辑关系—句与句、段与段之间的逻辑关系。 推理判断题 英语阅读中,有时作者并未把意图说出来,而是要求阅读者根据字面意思,通过全篇逻辑关系,研究细节的暗示,推敲作者的态度,理解文章的寓义,这就是判断推理题。判断推理题在阅读测试中属于难题。 判断推理是一种创造性的思维活动,但它并非无章可循。判断推理题要在阅读理解整体语篇的基础上,掌握文章的真正内涵。①要吃透文章的字面意思,从字里行间捕捉有用的提示和线索,这是推理的前提和基础。②要对文字的表面信息进行挖掘加工,由表入里,由浅入深。从具体到抽象,从特殊到一般,通过分析、综合、判断等进行深层处理,符合逻辑地推理。不能就事论事,断章取义,以偏概全。③要忠于原文,以文章提供的事实和线索为依据,立足已知,推断未知。立足现在,预测未来。不能主观臆想,凭空想象,随意揣测,更不能以自己的观点代替作者的观点。④要把握句、段之间的逻辑关系,了解语篇的结构。要体会文章的基调,揣摸作者的态度,摸准逻辑发展的方向,悟出作者的弦外之音。 推断题分类 1.推断隐含意义 2.推断作者观点或态度 3.推断写作目的 4.推断文章出处 5.推断文脉逻辑关系 那么,该如何掌握对推断作者观点态度题以及写作目的题的理解呢? 人物性格、态度及观点判断题: 高考阅读测试中有些是考查对作者的主导思想、被描写人物语气、言谈话语中流露的情绪、性格倾向和作者或文中人物态度、观点等方面的理解题。做这一类题时一定要注意:由表及里的准确把握字里行间的意思,切勿用自己的主观想法或观点代替作者的思想观点;特别注意那些描写环境气氛的语言,以及表达感情、态度观点的词语。要特别注意作者在文章中的措词,尤其是表达感情色彩的形容词;能结合自己平时积累的有关英语国家的文化传统、风俗习惯等背景知识来识别评价。

高考英语阅读理解真题汇编(含答案)

高考英语阅读理解真题汇编(含答案) 一、高中英语阅读理解 1.阅读理解 Mexico sites on an island plateau (高原) surrounded by volcanic peaks, which makes air quality a constant concern for people who live there. In April, the country took a decisive step toward improving air quality by enacting a temporary ban on private and Federal vehicles in the city. The rule forbids people from driving in the city one day each week and one Saturday each month. Electric vehicles, government service vehicles, public transport options and school buses are not included in the ban. Mexico City isn't the first urban center to be involved in car-free living. But the ban is more than an awareness-raiser. It was enacted with the direct aim of solving air pollution. In March, the city sank into a deep brown haze of smog when the pollution levels passed the 200 mark. The city ordered some 1.1m of the area's 4.7m cars off the streets and also offered free bus and subway rides. Mexico City's temporary vehicle ban raises questions about the best ways to improve urban air quality. India, whose citizens breathe some of the world's dirtiest air, has tried a variety of solutions. Earlier this year, the Indian government started a 4% sales tax on new-car purchases. Beijing also has experience with cleaning the air. The city introduced alternate-day rules in advance of the 2008 Olympic Games, which produced good results. And then there is the London congestion (拥挤) charge, introduced in 2003. The charge has had a measurable effect on air quality. For now, Mexico City — named by the United Nations as the most polluted city on the planet in 1992 — can look forward to the start of the region's rainy season, when daily showers will help lo clean the air. (1)How did Mexico ban vehicles in the city? A. By banning private and Federal vehicles one day a week. B. By forbidding private and public vehicles every Saturday. C. By limiting the number of new cars. D. By prohibiting the vehicles except public ones.(2)What did the government of Mexico do when carrying out the ban on vehicles? A. Raised the number of public vehicles. B. Offered free bus and subway rides. C. Introduced more travel options. D. Encouraged citizens to leave the city. (3)What may contribute to improving the air quality in Mexico? A. Alternate-day rules. B. Tax rises. C. Congestion charge. D. The rainy season.(4)What's the best title for the passage? A. Mexico —an Island Plateau B. A Variety of Bans on Vehicles in Mexico C. Should Cities Be Car-free Zones D. How to Improve Air Quality 【答案】(1)A (2)B (3)D (4)C
