(2019全国Ⅰ卷,阅读理解B)——学校生活
For Canaan Elementary’s second grade in Patchogue,N.Y.,today is speech day,and right now it’s Chris Palaez’s turn.The 8-year-old is the joker of the class.With shining dark eyes,he seems like the kind of kid who would enjoy public speaking.
But he’s nervous.“I’m here to tell you today why you should...should...” Chris trips on the“-ld”,a pronunciation difficulty for many non-native English speakers.His teacher,Thomas Whaley,is next to him,whispering support. “...Vote for...me...” Except for some stumbles,Chris is doing amazingly well. When he brings his speech to a nice conclusion,Whaley invites the rest of the class to praise him.
A son of immigrants,Chris started learning English a little over three years ago.Whaley recalls(回想起) how at the beginning of the year,when called upon to read,Chris would excuse himself to go to the bathroom.
Learning English as a second language can be a painful experience.What you need is a great teacher who lets you make mistakes.“It takes a lot for any student,” Whaley explains,“especially for a student who is learning English as their new language,to feel confident enough to say,‘I don’t know,but I want to know.’”
Whaley got the idea of this second-grade presidential campaign project when he asked the children one day to raise their hands if they thought they could never be a president.The answer broke his heart.Whaley says the project is about more than just learning to read and speak in public.He wants these kids to learn to boast(夸耀) about themselves.
“Boasting about yourself,and your best qualities,” Whaley says,“is very difficult for a child who came into the classroom not feeling confident.”
理清脉络
真题再做
24.What made Chris nervous
A.Telling a story.
B.Making a speech.
C.Taking a test.
D.Answering a question.
B
细节理解题。根据第一段及第二段第一句“But he’s nervous.”可知,尽管Chris是班上爱开玩笑的人,但在全班同学面前公开演讲他还是感到紧张。故选B项。
25.What does the underlined word “stumbles” in paragraph 2 refer to
A.Improper pauses.
B.Bad manners.
C.Spelling mistakes.
D.Silly jokes.
A
词义猜测题。根据第二段中的“‘...Vote for...me...’Except for some stumbles, Chris is doing amazingly well.”可知,除了演讲过程中的一些不恰当的停顿(Improper pauses)之外,Chris还是完成得相当不错。故选A项。
26.We can infer that the purpose of Whaley’s project is to .
A.help students see their own strengths
B.assess students’ public speaking skills
C.prepare students for their future jobs
D.inspire students’ love for politics
A
推理判断题。根据第五段及第六段中的“...is very difficult for a child who came into the classroom not feeling confident.”可以推知,Whaley之所以在班里开展“总统竞选演讲”项目,目的是帮助学生看到自己的长处,找到自信。故选A项。
27.Which of the following best describes Whaley as a teacher
A.Humorous. B.Ambitious.
C.Caring. D.Demanding.
C
推理判断题。纵观全文,尤其是第二段中的“His teacher,Thomas Whaley,is next to him,whispering support.”可以看出,Chris演讲时,Whaley在身旁默默地鼓励他;当初学语言时,Whaley允许学生犯错,让学生有勇气面对自身的不足之处,且渴望去探索,并鼓励走进教室的不自信的学生们夸赞自己的好品质。由此推知, 作为教师,Whaley对于学生关怀备至(Caring)。故选C项。

5.破解复杂句式
(1)Whaley recalls how at the beginning of the year,when called upon to read,Chris would excuse himself to go to the bathroom.
分析:本句是一个含有一个宾语从句和一个状语从句的主从复合句。主句主语是Whaley,谓语动词是recalls。其中how引导的是一个 从句;“when called upon to read”是状语从句的省略形式,相当于从句
。
译文:
宾语
when he was called upon to read
Whaley回想起在今年年初时,每当叫Chris朗读时,他就会给自己找借口去洗手间。
(2)“Boasting about yourself,and your best qualities,” Whaley says,“is very difficult for a child who came into the classroom not feeling confident.”
分析:本句中的直接引语部分是一个含有一个定语从句的主从复合句。直接引语的句子主干为“Boasting about yourself,and your best qualities is very difficult for a child”。其中动名词短语“Boasting about yourself,and your best qualities”作 ;“who came into the classroom not feeling confident”是一个定语从句,修饰先行词 。
译文:
主语
a child
Whaley说:“夸耀你自己以及你身上最好的品质,这对于一个走进教室时缺乏自信的孩子来说是非常困难的。”

Michael Nesmith,the guitarist of the 1960s pop group The Monkees,died at the age of 78.The famed singer-songwriter,who composed some of the band’s catalogue,including tracks such as PapaGene’sBlues,YouToldMe and YouJustMayBetheOne,died of natural causes on Friday morning,according to the statement released by his family.
The Monkees member Micky Dolenz is now the only surviving member of the group.“I’m heartbroken.” Dolenz said in a statement following Nesmith’s death.The Monkees television debut (首演) turned him and fellow band members Dolenz,Peter Tork and David Jones into overnight rock stars.The show,which premiered in 1966,rocketed the group to fame,scoring No.1 hits and chart-topping albums.During the two-year run,The Monkees won the 1967 Emmy for best comedy series.

(2022广东广州三模)
The top-selling album (唱片) SongsoftheHumpbackWhale was released in 1970.This collection of nature recordings changed the way many people thought about whales and eventually helped save thousands of whales’ lives.
The album might never have been made if it hadn’t been for a sound engineer named Frank Watlington.In the 1960s,Watlington was making underwater recordings when he noticed some strange,deep sounds,which he realized were coming from whales.
Watlington played the recordings for a pair of biologists named Roger and Katy Payne.When they listened,they were instantly hooked on the beauty of the whales’ voices.
Katy Payne studied music as well as biology,and she was amazed by how the whales communicate like an opera singer.She also noticed another interesting detail:they had recognizable patterns.In biology terms,an animal call with a repeating pattern is called a song.The songs of whales are so complex that some scientists have even compared them to composers and poets.
The Paynes thought that other people needed to hear the beauty of the whales’ songs,so Roger organized the recordings into an album.At the time when the album came out,whales were often hunted and traded for money and some whale species were dying out.Most people had never thought of whales as creatures that could communicate through songs.But after hearing the album,many people began to think differently.
The album led people to start the Save the Whales movement.Musicians began using whale songs in their music,and whales were included in movies and television shows.In 1982,deep-sea whaling was banned.Before the ban,more than 50,000 whales per year were killed.After it,the number went down below 2,000.
It might seem incredible that just one album could help save the lives of so many whales.But this one-of-a-kind album revealed secrets long hidden beneath the waves and allowed these amazing creatures to finally share their songs with the human world.
5.What is the purpose of the passage
A.To call on people to save whales.
B.To prove that whales are born singers.
C.To explain how a good album was made.
D.To introduce a popular album and its story.
6.Who first found the special voices of the whales
A.A song recorder.
B.An opera singer.
C.A sound engineer.
D.A pair of biologists.
7.What surprised Katy Payne about the whales
A.They could talk with scientists.
B.They could sing like an opera singer.
C.They could repeat interesting sounds.
D.They could communicate through songs.
8.Which is one of the values of the album
A.It successfully stopped deep-sea whaling.
B.It helped people understand whales better.
C.It made some music and movie stars popular.
D.It encouraged musicians to work with scientists.

5.D 推理判断题。文章第一段引出《座头鲸之歌》唱片;第二至五段介绍该唱片的由来;第六段介绍该唱片的一大价值,即引导人们开始拯救鲸鱼;最后一段总结全文。所以文章的目的就是介绍《座头鲸之歌》唱片及其背后的故事。

10.C 结合语境和常识,这颗种子既然被作者发现,说明它没有被饥饿的动物吃掉。survive“渡过难关,从(困难)中挺过来,继续存在”,符合句意。故选C项。
11.D 那一刻,作者曾经读过的这句话“Anacorn 12 aforesteventuallyifitwants!”突然出现在他的脑海中。strike常用义为“打,击,撞”,在文中表示“突然出现,突然想起”。故选D项。
12.A 根据句意,种子变成森林,become是系动词,故选A项。
13.C 根据上文的“Anacorn 12 aforesteventuallyifitwants!”可知,作者希望这颗种子变成树林,故他会小心翼翼地种下那颗种子。故选C项。
14.D 根据上文“Feelingsodown”以及“nolonger”可知,作者前后的心理形成对比,所以此处指不再沮丧。故选D项。
15.B fightback抗争,还击,斗争;startout开始(生活、职业、重要阶段);stepforward主动站出来;breakthrough突破,冲破。此处是文章主旨的升华,作者意识到每个人刚开始都像橡子一样,未来能否成为森林取决于自己。故选B项。

ASymbolofChina
As we all know,there are many traditional festivals in China.Some of them are representative.So whenever people mention them,they will think of China.Those are called Chinese symbols.As for me,“the Mid-Autumn Festival” is the most distinctive symbol of China.
The Mid-Autumn Festival falls on the 15th day of the eighth month of our Chinese lunar calendar,when all the family members will come home for the festival,enjoying the mooncakes and appreciating the beautiful moon.As one of the most representative Chinese festivals,it has been enjoying great popularity,which means Chinese people extremely value family union.That is why the Mid-Autumn Festival is regarded as “Symbol of China”.
The Mid-Autumn Festival is always my favorite holiday.
