Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
(2022浙江1月,A)
For nearly a decade now, Merebeth has been a self employed pet transport specialist. Her pet transport job was born of the financial crisis (危机) in the late 2000s. The downturn hit the real estate (房地产) firm where she had worked for ten years as an office manager. The firm went broke and left her looking for a new job. One day, while driving near her home, she saw a dog wandering on the road, clearly lost. She took it home, and her sister in Denver agreed to take it. This was a loving home for sure, but 1,600 miles away. It didn’t take long for Merebeth to decide to drive the dog there herself. It was her first road trip to her new job.
Merebeth’s pet delivery service satisfies her wanderlust. It has taken her to every state in the US except Montana, Washington and Oregon, she says proudly. If she wants to visit a new place, she will simply find a pet with transport needs there. She travels in all weathers. She has driven through 55 mph winds in Wyoming, heavy flooding and storms in Alabama and total whiteout conditions in Kansas.
This wanderlust is inherited from her father, she says. He moved their family from Canada to California when she was one year old, because he wanted them to explore a new place together. As soon as she graduated from high school she left home to live on Catalina Island off the Californian coast, away from her parents, where she enjoyed a life of sailing and off road biking.
It turns out that pet transporting pays quite well at about $30,000 per year before tax. She doesn’t work in summer, as it would be unpleasantly hot for the animals in the car, even with air conditioning. As autumn comes, she gets restless—the same old wanderlust returning. It’s a call she must handle alone, though. Merebeth says, “When I’m on the road I’m just in my own world. I’ve always been independent spirited and I just feel strongly that I must help animals.”

By day, Robert Titterton is a lawyer. In his spare time though he goes on stage beside pianist Maria Raspopova—not as a musician but as her page turner. “I’m not a trained musician, but I’ve learnt to read music so I can help Maria in her performance.”
Mr Titterton is chairman of the Omega Ensemble but has been the group’s official page turner for the past four years. His job is to sit beside the pianist and turn the pages of the score so the musician doesn’t have to break the flow of sound by doing it themselves. He said he became just as nervous as those playing instruments on stage.
“A lot of skills are needed for the job. You have to make sure you don’t turn two pages at once and make sure you find the repeats in the music when you have to go back to the right spot,” Mr Titterton explained.
Being a page turner requires plenty of practice. Some pieces of music can go for 40 minutes and require up to 50 page turns, including back turns for repeat passages. Silent onstage communication is key, and each pianist has their own style of “nodding” to indicate a page turn which they need to practise with their page turner.
But like all performances, there are moments when things go wrong.“I was turning the page to get ready for the next page, but the draft wind from the turn caused the spare pages to fall off the stand,” Mr Titterton said. “Luckily I was able to catch them and put them back.”
Most page turners are piano students or up and coming concert pianists, although Ms Raspopova has once asked her husband to help her out on stage.
“My husband is the worst page turner,” she laughed. “He’s interested in the music, feeling every note, and I have to say: ‘Turn, turn!’ Robert is the best page turner I’ve had in my entire life.”

1.score n.乐谱(熟词生义)     2.flow n.连贯(熟词生义)
3.onstage adj.舞台上的 4.draft wind穿堂风(熟词生义)
5.stand n.架,台(熟词生义) 6.up and coming adj.有前途的
7.note n.音符(熟词生义)
4.What should Titterton be able to do to be a page turner                               
A.Read music. B.Play the piano. C.Sing songs. D.Fix the instruments.
5.Which of the following best describes Titterton’s job on stage
A.Boring. B.Well paid. C.Demanding. D.Dangerous.
6.What does Titterton need to practise
A.Counting the pages. B.Recognizing the “nodding”.
C.Catching falling objects. D.Performing in his own style.
7.Why is Ms Raspopova’s husband “the worse page turner”

五年高考练
Ⅰ. A
◎语篇解读 本文是一篇记叙文,主题语境为人与自我。文章讲述了Merebeth从事的新工作。近十年来,她一直是一名自己单干的宠物运输专家。
1.D 根据第一段中“The downturn hit the real estate firm...looking for a new job. (她曾在一家房地产公司做了10 年的办公室经理,经济低迷打击了这家公司。公司破产了,她只好另寻新工作。)”可知,Merebeth之所以换工作,是因为她以前的雇主破产了。故选D。
2.D 根据第二段中“It has taken her to every state in the US...in all weathers. (她自豪地说,除了蒙大拿州、华盛顿州和俄勒冈州,她走遍了美国所有的州。如果她想去一个新的地方,她只需要在那里找到一只有交通需要的宠物。她风雨无阻地旅行。)”可知,画线词的意思是“渴望去不同的地方旅行”。故选D。
3.C 根据最后一段中“When I’m on the road...I just feel strongly that I must help animals. (当我在路上的时候,我只是在自己的世界里。我一直很独立,我强烈地觉得我必须帮助动物。)”可知,Merebeth 在她的新工作中一直都是靠自己。故选C。
长难句
原句1 The downturn hit the real estate firm where she had worked for ten years as an office manager.
分析 where引导定语从句。
译文 经济衰退打击了她在那里做了十年办公室经理的房地产公司。
原句2 She moved their family from Canada to California when she was one year old,because he wanted them to explore a new place together.
分析 when引导时间状语从句,because引导原因状语从句。

B
◎语篇解读 这是一篇记叙文,主要讲述了为钢琴演奏者做翻页工作的Robert Titterton和他的工作情况。
4.A 细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句“I’m not a...help Maria in her performance.”可知,想做钢琴师的乐谱翻页者应该能识谱。故选A。
5.C 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“A lot of skills are needed for the job.”和第四段中的“Being a page turner requires plenty of practice.”以及文中对翻页者工作的具体描述可知,Titterton在舞台上的工作需要很多的技巧以及大量的练习。demanding意为“要求高的,需要高技能的”,符合题意。故选C。
6.B 细节理解题。根据第四段最后一句“Silent...which they need to practise with their page turner.”可知,无声的舞台交流是关键,每个钢琴家都有他们自己的“点头”风格来暗示需要翻页,他们需要同他们的翻页者一起练习。所以Titterton需要练习以及时识别钢琴师的点头翻页示意。故选B。
7.D 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“He’s...to say:‘Turn, turn!’”可知,她的丈夫对音乐很感兴趣,他总是忘记自己的翻页工作,还需要她去提醒他翻页。故选D。
长难句
原句 Silent onstage communication is key, and each pianist has their own style of “nodding” to indicate a page turn which they need to practise with their page turner.
分析 本句是一个and连接的并列复合句。which引导定语从句,修饰先行词nodding。
译文 舞台上的无声交流是关键的,每个钢琴家都有自己的“点头”风格来暗示翻页,这需要他们和翻乐谱的人共同练习。
Ⅱ.◎语篇解读 本文是记叙文。文章介绍了90岁的英国全职员工 Irene Astbury坚持每天朝九晚五地在自己和丈夫开的宠物店上班而荣获“年度女性”称号的感人故事。
1.being 考查动名词。设空处作前面介词for的宾语,故此处需填名词或动名词形式。又因所给词为be,故应填其动名词形式being。句意:一位90岁的老人因为是英国最年长的全职雇员而被评为“年度女性”。她仍然一周工作40个小时。
2.which 考查非限制性定语从句。根据句子结构可知设空处引导非限制性定语从句,修饰先行词the pet shop。将先行词代入定语从句后为:She opened the pet shop with her late husband Les.。由此可见,关系词在定语从句中作宾语,且指“事物”,故填which。
3.finally 考查副词。句意:在一位客户提名她为柴郡的年度女性之后,她多年的努力工作终于得到了认可。根据文章中的句子结构可知,设空处修饰谓语动词,作状语,需要用所给词的副词形式。故填finally。
4.declared 考查时态。本句为主从复合句。设空处作proud Irene的谓语。后面的“she had no plans...”为宾语从句。根据上下文可知,设空处的谓语动词应该用一般过去时,故填declared。
5.to retire 考查不定式。设空处作前面名词plans的定语。名词plan、ability、chance等后面多用不定式作定语。故填to retire。
6.have made 考查时态。句意:我喜欢到这里来看我的家人和我多年来交的所有朋友。friends后是定语从句。根据后面的时间状语“over the years”可知,设空处应该用现在完成时,故填have made。
7.but 考查连词。句意:我工作不是因为我必须工作,而是因为我想工作。根据句子意思可知,设空处与前面的not构成“not...but...(不是……而是……)”结构。故填but。
8.saying 考查现在分词。句意:当我们接到一个说她入围了的电话时,我们认为这是个玩笑。设空处作a call的后置定语。名词call与动词say之间为逻辑上的主动关系,故填现在分词saying,相当于which said。
9.a 考查冠词。 joke为可数名词,意为“玩笑”,在此处表示泛指,故填a。
10.wonderful 考查形容词。设空处作前面系动词is的表语,表示It的特征,需要用形容词,故填wonderful。
