(2019·江西重点中学盟校模拟)Watch the countryside fly by as you travel by superfast Eurostar from London or Kent, through the Channel Tunnel and direct to the Heart of the Magic. Once there, enjoy this extraordinary world of fun, laughter, and magic.
Day One
Board the direct Eurostar service to Disneyland Paris.When you arrive, a free shuttle bus will take you to your hotel to check in. Once you’ve settled, why not head to Disney Village—the resort’s lively entertainment centre? This evening, dine in the hotel or in one of the restaurants in Disney Village, and look forward to the days ahead.
Day Two
Enjoy a fantastic full day at Disneyland Paris, and take advantage of your Extra Magic Hours as specific areas of Disneyland Park open up to two hours earlier for Disney Resort Hotel guests. At the end of a wonderful day, head back to your hotel or into Disney Village.
Day Three
Return to the Disney Parks for another day of thrills.Your special Hopper Ticket gives you unlimited admission to both Disneyland Park and Walt Disney Studios Park during opening hours, and you can plan your visit using the Park Timetables and Fastpass system to shorten your wait at popular rides.
Day Four
Check out of your hotel this morning, and use the hotel’s left luggage facility to make the most of your last day at Disneyland Paris. Your Eurostar departs this evening, so you’ll have plenty of time to make the most of the magic of Disney Village before beginning your journey home.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇广告。乘坐欧洲之星列车去巴黎迪士尼乐园吧！巴黎迪士尼乐园充满欢笑与神秘。文中介绍了巴黎迪士尼乐园之游的日程安排。

A．By air. B．By ship.
C．By train. D．By coach.
C 解析：推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Watch the countryside fly by as you travel by superfast Eurostar from London or Kent，through the Channel Tunnel”可推知，游客乘坐火车去巴黎迪士尼乐园。
2．What are travelers advised to do after checking in at their hotel?
A．Go to Disney Village.
B．Dine in the hotel.
C．Prepare for the days ahead.
D．Have a good rest.
A 解析：细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Once you’ve settled，why not head to Disney Village—the resort’s lively entertainment centre？”可知，对游客的建议是在酒店登记入住后去娱乐中心Disney Village。
3．What can be used to save time in Disneyland Paris?

(2019·洛阳第一次统考)It is quite apparent that competition surrounds every aspect of human life whether in the United States or the Amazon rain forest.Without it we would not have grown into primates(灵长类动物)．Or we would probably still be struggling to sharpen a bronze tool while crawling around on four legs in search of meat.Without competition, Columbus wouldn’t have discovered America and Edison would never have invented the light bulb.
The friendship, like all relationships between two people, involves competition.It isn’t competition in a traditional sense because there are no goals to be scored and no prizes.Perhaps the ecological definition—the simultaneous(同时的) demand by two or more organisms for limited environmental resources, such as nutrients, living space, or light—better explains it.
As in nature, high school life is governed by a set of laws, similar to a shortened version of Darwin’s theory of evolution, overpopulation, and competition. There is an abundance of high school students and to distinguish them, ranking and categorizing(分类) take place. In high school, friendship coexists with competition even though at times the relationship is rough. In fact, in some circumstances, competition is too much of a burden for friendship to bear, causing it to fall apart. College admission is the final high school objective.Four years of hard work is to achieve good grades, and a student’s fate is determined not only by these achievements, but by the records of thousands of other seniors trying to achieve similar recognition.
Nevertheless, by necessity, competition between students exists in all aspects of high school life.It sets and improves the standards in everything from sports to schoolwork.Healthy, friendly competition can have only benefits, but when it becomes too fierce, jealousy(妒忌)can tear friendship apart.Yet, despite all this, without competition, we would be lost.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇议论文，主要论述了友谊和竞争之间的关系，健康的竞争能够增进友谊，而恶性的竞争则会破坏友谊。
4．What does the ecological definition mainly explain?
A．How friends compete with each other.
B．How to win the competition.
C．What the result of competition is.
D．What competition exactly is.
D 解析：细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句可知，该句的主干是Perhaps the ecological definition better explains it，其中 “it” 指代的是前一句中的“competition”。两个破折号之间的内容解释的是“the ecological definition”。句意：两个或更多的生物体同时对有限的生态环境资源有需求，如营养物质、生存空间、光——这一生态学定义更好地解释了竞争(的含义)。故选D项。
5．According to the author，what causes the high school students to compete?
A．The number of them is too large.
B．Friendship is a burden for them.
C．They know the laws of nature well.
D．They are divided into different groups.
A 解析：细节理解题。根据第三段内容可知，高中生活与自然界一样有一系列的规则，这与达尔文关于进化、人口过多和竞争的理论相似。也正是因为学生人数众多，为了区分，所以对学生进行了排名和分类。再加上考大学这一高中生活的最终目标的压力，高中生之间的竞争就不可避免地产生了。故选A项。
6．Which best describes the relationship of friendship and competition?
A．Friendship is always based on competition.
B．The degree of competition is vital to friendship.
C．Competition is terribly harmful to friendship.
D．Competition is a result of lost friendship.
B 解析：推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Healthy, friendly competition can have only benefits, but when it becomes too fierce, jealousy(妒忌) can tear friendship apart.”可知，健康的、友好的竞争对友谊有好处，而过于激烈的、存在妒忌的竞争则会使友谊破裂。因此竞争的度对友谊是至关重要的。故选B项。
7．What does the author think of “competition” ?
A．The results of competition are out of control.
B．Competition becomes fiercer in high school.
C．Competition is certain to happen in high school.
D．Friendship is not as important as competition in high schools.
C 解析：细节理解题。根据最后一段第一句“Nevertheless，by necessity，competition between students exists in all aspects of high school life.”可知，作者认为竞争是必然存在于高中生活的各个方面中的。故选C项。

(2019·吉林长春高三质检)It’s hard to talk to Dad sometimes. His silence about his feelings and thoughts made him mysterious and hard to see through. You could never break his hard shell and get to know him. And he seemed to want to stay that way too.
But a year ago when my relationship with my wife and career took a hit, I needed my dad to pull__back__the__curtain so I could see him as real and accessible. I was facing serious problems, and I wanted to know whether he had faced them before and how he had found his way, because I felt like I had lost mine. In desperation, it occurred to me that sending an email might be the key, so I wrote him one, telling him about my regrets and fears, and I asked him to answer, if he felt like it.
Two weeks later, it showed up in my inbox: a much?thought, three?page letter. Dad, a 68?year?old retired technologist and grandfather of four, had carefully considered my message, and crafted a response. He mentioned his lost love, the foolish mistake he made in career and the stupid pride he had between him and his parents. He comforted me that “life will still find its right track despite many of its twists and turns”．
I closed the email and started to cry, because I wished I had opened it up earlier but was grateful it wasn’t too late. I cried because at 33, in the midst of my own struggles, his letter instantly put me at ease. And I cried because in the end，it was so simple：I just had to hit “Send”．
We’ve since had many email exchanges. This increasing communication opened a door into his world. My problems haven’t been magically solved, but getting to know my dad better has made the tough stuff more manageable and life sweeter. It’s hard to talk to dads sometimes, but I’m glad I found a way to talk to mine.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇记叙文。与一个沉默寡言的父亲交谈有时很难，作者却找到了一个很好的与父亲交流的方式，那就是发电子邮件。

C．selfish and lonely
D．indifferent and serious
A 解析：推理判断题。根据第一段中的“His silence about his feelings and thoughts”可知，父亲是沉默寡言的；根据第三段可知，其实父亲很关心作者。A项意为“安静和体贴的”；B项意为“乐观和粗心的”；C项意为“自私和孤独的”；D项意为“冷漠和严肃的”。故选A。
9．The underlined part in Paragraph 2 can be best replaced by “________”．
A．draw the curtain
B．become more optimistic
C．show his true self
D．clear the misunderstanding
C 解析：词义猜测题。根据下文的“so I could see him as real and accessible”可知，作者需要父亲展现真实的自己。故选C。
10．What can be a suitable title for the text?
A．Communication Is the Best Policy
B．Emails from My Dad
C．A Man of Few Words
D．My Mysterious Dad
B 解析：标题归纳题。作者与父亲之间真正的内心情感交流是由父亲回复的邮件开始的，也是这封邮件让作者找到了与父亲交流的途径。B项紧扣主题。故选B。
11．Which of the following is NOT true?
A．My dad’s email was quickly written.
B．I was moved when reading the email.
C．The email contained much information.
D．I wished I could have consulted my dad earlier.
A 解析：细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Two weeks later，it showed up in my inbox：a much?thought，three?page letter.”可知，父亲的邮件并不是很快写完的。故选A。

(2019·郑州第二次质量预测)Though not as much as in the past, grandparents are the teachers of the Navojo(纳瓦霍人) youth. They make young people aware of life at an early age. The parents allow them the privilege of teaching the children, and the grandparents take great pride in raising them.
Young children often stay with their grandparents for years at a time, developing a close and trusting relationship. The grandparents teach them Navajo legends and the principle of life, emphasizing both new culture trends and the preservation of traditions.
The grandparents are also the leading figures in teaching the youth the arts of weaving, caring for the livestock, using herbal medicine, and other arts and crafts.
The children are taught to respect their elders, care for them, help them and learn from them. Young people are urged to listen with care to the words of their elders and keep as much wisdom as possible. Grandparents often go to social gatherings and traditional events, and young people have opportunities to learn more about their culture and traditions.
I lived with my grandmother for thirteen years, and she raised me in the old ways of our people. Although I was going to school, she taught me as much as she could about our traditions. If I had a chance, I would listen again to her wise teachings, expressed with kindness in a soft voice that touched my heart.
We used to plant corn and pumpkin every summer. They never grew big enough to feed us, but we planted them anyway. I asked my grandmother why. She said, “Grandson, our plants will be far more beautiful than the flowers outside the fence.” I didn’t understand until one day I saw their beauty as I was coming over the hill with her. She said, “Anything that is a part of you is always far more beautiful than the things which you pass by.” We had some beautiful years together. I’m glad she is a part of me and I’m a part of her.
Children used to be well disciplined, possessing more respect for culture, traditions and beliefs than they do now. The world of the Navajo has been influenced by the western world, and the grandparents have less control and influence than they used to. But the young people who have been touched by their teachings have glimpsed a way of life beyond what most people know today.
【解题导语】 文章是一篇说明文。作者介绍了纳瓦霍人的一种文化： 由祖父母来教育孙子辈， 让他们学到生活中的道理。
12．What can be inferred from the first paragraph?
A．Grandparents are the source of traditional culture.
B．Parents hate to take the trouble to raise their children.
C．Early schooling isn’t every popular with the young Navojo.
D．Children learn about the meaning of life from their grandparents.
D 解析：细节理解题。根据第一段第二句“They make young people aware of life at an early age.”可知， 祖父母们使年轻人在很小的时候就认识生活，所以答案是D。
13．The underlined word “figures” in Paragraph 3 probably means “________”．
A．persons B．pioneers
C．examples D．representatives
A 解析：词义猜测题。根据下文的“in teaching...arts and crafts”可知， 在教育年轻人的编织技艺、 照顾牲畜、 使用草药以及其他手工艺方面， 祖父母们还是 “引导人”。
14．Why did the author’s grandmother plant corn and pumpkin?
A．She had to feed her family members.
B．She tried to make full use of her garden.
C．She wanted her grandson to learn a life lesson.
D．She expected her grandson to learn about farming.
C 解析：推理判断题。根据题干中的关键词 “plant corn and pumpkin” 定位到第六段， 根据第六段内容可知， 祖母种植玉米和南瓜是为了让作者明白一个生活的道理： 你自己的一部分总是远比你路过的东西要美得多，所以答案是C。
15．What is the author’s purpose in writing this passage?
A．To honor his beloved grandmother.
B．To stress the greatness of the Navajo.
C．To share with readers a kind of Navajo culture.
D．To show the influence of Navajo traditions.

5．greatly 解析：本空需用副词修饰谓语动词affect，作affect的状语。
6．is thinking 解析：根据设空处后的feeling可判断设空处需用现在进行时。
7．be applied 解析：主语Facial expression与apply为被动关系，故设空处需用被动语态形式。情态动词can后需加be再加过去分词构成被动语态。
8．features 解析：feature为可数名词，physical前没有不定冠词，故设空处用复数形式。
9．to comfort 解析：根据常识及上下文可推知给某人拥抱，拉着某人的手的目的是安慰对方，故设空处用不定式作目的状语。
10．between 解析：connection between the people意为：人们之间的联系。

【解题导语】 本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了世界上最大的大洋——太平洋。
61．largest 解析：考查形容词最高级。根据句意及空前的“the”可知，此处应该使用形容词的最高级形式。
62．from 解析：考查介词。此处指它从北半球的北极延伸到南半球的南极地区。from与后面的“to”形成对应。
63．surrounded 解析：考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知，空处在句中作伴随状语，且由空格后的“by”可知，此处指的是太平洋被围绕，表被动，故应用过去分词。
64．majority 解析：考查名词。由空前的“The”和空后的“of”可知，这里应填一个名词。major本身可以作名词，表示“专业”，显然不符合语境。此处应用majority“大部分”。
65．The 解析：考查冠词。根据water后面的修饰语“near the equator”可知，此处应用定冠词The表特指。
66．abundant 解析：考查形容词。根据语境和句子结构可知，空处在句中作定语修饰名词，故应用其形容词形式。
67．generally 解析：考查副词。此处表示通常，太平洋水域的表面循环在北半球是顺时针方向的，在南半球是逆时针方向的。应用副词修饰整个句子，故用generally。
68．which 解析：考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知，空处在句中引导非限制性定语从句，修饰先行词The exploitation，且在从句中作主语，故只能用which。
69．are harvested 解析：考查时态和语态。根据句子结构可知，pearls与harvest之间是被动关系，应用被动语态，且本文的基本时态为一般现在时，故此处也需要用一般现在时，故填are harvested。
70．mentioning 解析：考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知，空处在句中作worth的宾语，worth后接动词时应用其－ing形式，即用主动形式表被动含义。worth doing sth.“值得做某事”。

(2019·合肥第二次教学质量检测)Last Saturday our class went hiking in a countryside. We meet at our school gate and set off at 8：00 a．m. On the way, we were singing and laughing happily while a girl suddenly fell into a deep hole. She felt so frightening and even burst into tears. One of my classmate found a long rope and we finally got him out. Fortunately, she didn’t suffer seriously injuries, but it seemed that her ankle slightly twisted. We managed to sending her to the nearest hospital. It is an experience we’ll never forget it, though we didn’t enjoy ourselves very much that day.
