一、阅读理解
[2022·1月浙江卷·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 California 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."

1.Why did Merebeth change her job ( )
D
A.She wanted to work near her home.
B.She was tired of working in the office.
C.Her sister asked her to move to Denver.
D.Her former employer was out of business.
【解析】 理解具体信息。根据题干"为什么Merebeth换了工作"可将解题
信息定位在第一段。根据该段中的"The firm went broke and left her
looking for a new job"可知,她换工作是因为她原来工作的公司倒闭了,
故选D。
2.The word "wanderlust" in paragraph 2 means a desire to ___.
D
A.make money B.try various jobs
C.be close to nature D.travel to different places
【解析】 理解词汇。根据画线词前的"pet delivery service satisfies her"
及画线词后的"It has taken her to every state in the US except Montana,
Washington and Oregon"可以推知,画线词的含义与去不同的地方有关,
故选D。
3.What can we learn about Merebeth in her new job ( )
C
A.She has chances to see rare animals.
B.She works hard throughout the year.
C.She relies on herself the whole time.
D.She earns a basic and tax-free salary.
【解析】 理解具体信息。各选项分析如下:
A 无中生有——文中仅提到Merebeth新工作的内容是"pet delivery service",并未提及她有机会见到珍稀动物。 ×
B 曲解原文——根据最后一段中的"She doesn't work in summer"可知,Merebeth在夏天是不工作的,而非B项所说的 全年都在辛苦工作。 ×
C 根据最后一段中的"It's a call she must handle alone"及"I've always been independent-spirited"可知,Merebeth一直都是靠 自己。 √
D 曲解原文——根据最后一段中的"It turns out that pet transporting pays quite well at about ?$30,000 per year before tax"可知,在新工作中,Merebeth每年的税前收入非常 可观,而非只能挣得不需要缴税的基本收入。 ×

美食
【解题导语】 本文介绍了中国的特色小吃小笼包,包括其吃法、发源地等。
【考情速递】 中国情怀是高考英语科的核心价值之一,用地道英语讲好
中国故事、传承中华优秀传统文化是2023年高考英语试卷的突出特点。本
篇以中华美食小笼包为主题,通过浸润的方式引导同学们加强对中华优秀
传统文化的认同,激发同学们热爱祖国的真挚情怀,帮助同学们坚定"四
个自信"。
1.______
tasty
【解析】 考查形容词。空处与空前的形容词hot并列,修饰空后的名词
soup,故空处填形容词tasty。
2.________
to bite
【解析】 考查非谓语动词。此处考查"whether+不定式"结构,空处与下
文的to put是并列关系。
3.____
or
【解析】 考查连词。whether...or..."是……还是……"是固定搭配。句意:
要吃一个小笼包,你必须决定是先把小笼包咬个小口,把热气释放出来,
冒着汤汁溢出来的风险,还是把整个包子塞进嘴里,让热汤在你的舌头上
爆开。
4.___________
recognized
【解析】 考查非谓语动词。此处表示"得到认可的小笼包的发源地"。空
处在句中作定语,修饰名词home,且与home之间是逻辑上的动宾关系,
故填recognized。
5.____
by
【解析】 考查介词。by hand"用手工",是固定搭配。故填by。
6.____________
to be lifted
【解析】 考查非谓语动词。空前的them指代上文的xiao long bao, 此处
表示"小笼包被从蒸笼里拿出来"。them与lift是被动关系,此处构成allow
sth. to be done结构,意为"允许某事被做",故空处填to be lifted。
【考情速递】 高考命题"稳中求新",以往的高考语法填空每空所填答案
一般不超过两个单词。本题需要填三个单词,这在高考语法填空题中是首
次出现,属于反套路命题。这就告诉同学们要加强对必备知识的深入理解
和掌握,以扎实的基本功迎接"万变"。
7.______
their
【解析】 考查代词。此处用形容词性物主代词their作定语,修饰空后的
名词contents,表示"不会使包子开裂,或者溢出包子里的任何东西"。
8.___
a
【解析】 考查冠词。a touch of"少许,微量",是固定搭配。句意:肉应
该新鲜,带着一丝甜味;汤汁要热、清澈并且美味。注意:and后面的并
列分句省略了should be。
9._______
rarely
【解析】 考查副词。此处enough为形容词,其前应用副词修饰,故填
rarely"几乎不"。
10._________
wanting
【解析】 考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知,此处考查"leave sb.
doing sth."结构,表示"使我想着下次多吃点"。
