能力提升题组训练(A)
Ⅰ.阅读理解
In 1967,a 20-year-old student at Syracuse University became the first woman to officially participate in the Boston Marathon.Fifty years later,Kathrine Switzer crossed the finish line of the Boston Marathon wearing the same number.
Switzer’s marathon in 1967 became historic because she was the first woman to complete the all-male race as an official participant.She registered as “K.V.Switzer” to hide her sex.A few miles into the race,an official tried to remove Switzer from the race.“Naturally I turned my head around quickly and looked square into the most unpleasant face I’d ever seen.A huge man with bared teeth was set to pounce(猛扑),and before I could react he grabbed my shoulder,screaming,‘Get the hell out of my race and give me those numbers!’”she wrote in her memoir (回忆录).Switzer finished the race in four hours and 20 minutes,but would later be disqualified and officially forced to leave from the Amateur Athletic Union.
Plenty has changed in running since 1967,thanks to Switzer’s efforts.Since 1972,women are welcome in the Boston Marathon and other major races.On Monday,the 70-year-old finished the Boston Marathon only a little slower,in 4∶44∶31.Her number was retired after the race—just the second number that the marathon has retired.Before her start,she was given the honor of firing the gun for the women’s top runners.
“In 1967,few would have believed that marathon running would someday attract millions of women,become an appealing event in the Olympics and on the streets of major cities,help transform views of women’s physical ability and help redefine their economic roles in traditional cultures,” Switzer wrote.“We’ve come a light year but we still have a long way to go.”
1.What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about?
A.Switzer’s Boston Marathon results.
B.Switzer’s being removed from the race.
C.Switzer’s hiding her sex in registration.
D.Switzer’s experience in the Boston Marathon.
2.Why was Switzer treated that way by the Amateur Athletic Union?
A.She lacked proper training in marathon race.
B.They found her quarrelling with the official.
C.She had little experience in the long race.
D.They had discrimination against women.
3.Why was Switzer’s number retired after the race?
A.She performed poorly in the race.
B.Nobody wanted to use the number any more.
C.She was the second retired athlete in marathon.
D.They honored her contributions to women marathon.
4.What’s Switzer’s attitude towards women marathon?
A.Optimistic. B.Disappointed. C.Doubtful. D.Unclear.
语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文。凯瑟琳·斯威策是世界上第一位正式参加马拉松的女子选手,象征着女性对自身权利的一种追求。
答案及剖析:
1.D 主旨大意题。文章第二段讲述凯瑟琳突破禁忌,在1967年参加波士顿马拉松时候的经历。故选D项。
2.D 推理判断题。由第二段中的Switzer’s marathon in 1967 became historic because she was the first woman to complete the all-male race as an official participant.可知,当时马拉松项目只允许男性参与,这件事直接体现出当时社会上对女性充分参与体育运动的普遍反对,存在性别歧视。
3.D 推理判断题。根据文章第三段,尤其是Plenty has changed in running since 1967,thanks to Switzer’s efforts.Since 1972,women are welcome in the Boston Marathon and other major races.可判断,在五年后的1972年,波士顿马拉松赛终于允许女性正式进入比赛,这在一定程度上要归功于凯瑟琳。故为了表达对她的敬仰,在她70岁参加完比赛之后参赛选手不再使用凯瑟琳胸前挂着的号码。
4.A 推理判断题。根据最后一段,尤其最后一个句子 “We’ve come a light year but we still have a long way to go.”体现了凯瑟琳对女性参与社会生活的信心。故选A项。
Ⅱ.七选五(2018湖南长沙雅礼中学、河南实验中学高三联考)
Why you shouldn’t punish your kids for lying
Getting your children to stop lying is challenging.There are many influences (TV, movies, video games and some great books) in which lies are common.Children see parents lie to others, if only to be polite.Most parents add to that with tales about the lives and activities of Santa Claus or the Tooth Fairy, or to lessen fears.1. ?
The most common reactions to children who lie are explaining why it is wrong and punishment.2. Here are three better tools supported by research to use instead.?
PRAISE: You could ask your child to say something that happened at school that is true.When your child obeys, praise him enthusiastically.Be specific:3. and give your child a hug or a high five.Aim for one or two interactions (互动) like this a day.If you happen to “catch” your child in a lie, say something like, “That is not true and could get you in trouble outside of the home.”?
MODEL: Explicitly tell the truth.This could be about something that happened when you were a child or something that happened during the day.It need not be dramatic.Another option is to play a game at dinner.Each person tells one thing that was true that day.Again, give a little praise to the child who normally lies if he / she plays along.
DECREASE PUNISHMENT AND MORALIZING: They are unlikely to change behavior or develop the conduct you want.4. Rather, use very mild punishment (light scolding, short loss of privilege, a brief time-out).More severe punishments (shouting, taking away something for a week, hitting) are not more effective in actually changing the frequency of lying.?
5. Usually they can be dropped by then.It is unlikely that lying will be completely removed, but with the right encouragement, it can be dramatically lessened.?
A.It is not what that is, but about practice.
B.As ways of changing behavior, these are ineffective.
C.That does not mean ignoring, lying or letting it go.
D.“That was great! You told me what happened just like I asked.Wow!”
E.Try these procedures for two to three weeks and see where you are.
F.“You did a good job, but what you said was not what I’d like to know!”
G.Parents do this out of love, but for some children, lying can become a problem.

How can I forget the day? On 14 July 1974 I travelled in an overcrowded bus to an unheard town called Shendurni.The next day, I was to join the faculty of a junior college there. 1 about my new job, but anxious and fearful too, I was out of my 2 zone.Around 7 p.m.it started pouring with rain.Wondering about my new career in an unknown land, I had 3 in my seat.I woke up with a(n) 4 to the sound of the conductor announcing the name of my bus stop.I looked out.It was pitch-dark.Ah, a power cut. 5 unusual during heavy rains.“Conductor Sahab, can I get a 6 for myself here?

能力提升题组训练(B)
Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
(2018四川绵阳高三三诊)
Having a learning disability doesn’t mean you can’t learn,but you’ll need some help and need to work extra hard.If you have a learning disability such as dyslexia or dyscalculia,remember that you are not slow or stupid.
Learning disabilities can be genetic.That means they can be passed down in families through the genes,but kids today have an advantage over their parents. Learning experts now know a lot more about the brain and how learning works,and
it’s easier for kids to get the help they need.
Dyslexia is a learning disability that means a kid has a lot of trouble reading and writing. Kids who have trouble with math may have dyscalculia.Other kids may have language disorders,meaning they have trouble understanding language and understanding what they read.
It can be confusing,though. What qualifies as “trouble” enough to be diagnosed as a learning disability?Reading,doing math,and writing letters may be tough for lots of kids at first. But when those troubles don’t fade away and it’s really difficult to make any progress,it’s possible that the kid has a learning disability.
Finding out you have a learning disability can be upsetting.You might feel different from everyone else. But the truth is that learning disabilities are pretty common. And if your learning specialist or psychologist has figured out which one you’re facing,you’re on the right track. Now,you can start getting the help you need to do better in school.
But for this special help to really work,you’ll need to practice the new skills you’re learning. It may take a lot of efforts every day.That can be a challenge,but you can do it.Soon,you’ll enjoy the results of all your hard work: more fun and success at school.
1.What do we know about the learning disability?

2.Children are likely to have a learning disability .?
A.if their parents have the same problem
B.if they are not interested in a subject
C.if they don’t get help in time

B
Anton Oberlander is a persuasive speaker.Last year,when he and a group of friends were short of cash for a trip to Cornwall,he managed to talk Germany’s national rail operator into handing them some free tickets.Anton,it should be pointed out,is 14 years old.
His self-confidence is largely the product of a unique educational institution that has turned traditional teaching upside down.At Oberlander’s school,there are no grades until students turn 15,no timetables and no lecture-style instructions.The pupils decide which subjects they want to study for each lesson and when they want to take an exam.
The school’s syllabus (教学大纲) reads like any helicopter parent’s nightmare.Set subjects are limited to maths,German,English and social studies, supplemented by more courses such as “responsibility” and “challenge”.For challenge,students aged 12 to 14 are given $110 and sent on an adventure that they have to plan entirely by themselves.Last year,some went boating,while others worked on a farm.Anton went traveling along England’s south coast.
The philosophy behind these innovations is simple:as the requirements of the labor market are changing,and smartphones and the Internet are changing the ways in which young people process information,the school’s headteacher,Margret Rasfeld,argues that the most important skill a school can pass down to its students is the ability to motivate themselves.“Look at little kids—they are all full of self-confidence,”Rasfeld says.“Often,children can’t wait to start school.”
Students at her school are encouraged to think up other ways to prove their skills,such as coding a computer game instead of sitting a maths exam.Oberlander had never been away from home for three weeks until he started his challenge in Cornwall.He said he learned more English on his trip than he had in several years of learning the language at school.
5.Anton succeeded in persuading Germany’s national rail operator to .?
A.organize a trip B.get some free tickets
C.reform traditional teaching D.set some subjects
6.Which of the following statements is true?
A.At Anton’s school,there are only four subject.
B.At Anton’s school,the pupils decide which subjects to study.
C.At Anton’s school,pupils don’t know when to take an exam.
D.At Anton’s school,most of the pupils lack confidence.
7.The underlined word in the third paragraph can be replaced by “ ”.?
A.reduced B.enjoyed C.designed D.followed
8.In Margret’s opinion,for pupils, is the most important skill.?
A.the ability to set subjects B.the ability to decide when to take a trip
C.the ability to motivate themselves D.the ability to start a challenge

答案及剖析:
1.is given 考查动词的时态和语态。句意:阴历中每一年都会以这些动物中的一种来命名:鼠、牛、虎、兔、龙、蛇、马、羊、猴、鸡、狗和猪。设空处在句中作谓语,此处为客观介绍中国的阴历年,因此应用一般现在时,指“被给予”,应用被动语态;主语为Each lunar year,为第三人称单数。故填is given。
2.itself 考查代词。句意:中国生肖年每十二年会自动轮一次,这是中国阴历的主要特点。设空处作repeats的宾语,与主语同指一个事物,应用反身代词。故填itself。
3.which 考查定语从句。设空处引导非限制性定语从句,先行词为前面一整句话,且关系词在从句中作主语,因此应用which引导该从句。故填which。
4.fifteenth 考查数词。句意:每个中国阴历月份从一轮新月的那天开始,满月总是出现在每个月的第十五天。根据句意可知,此处指“第十五天”,设空处前有定冠词the,因此应用序数词。故填fifteenth。
5.actually 考查副词。句意:中国的新年,实际上更是以“春节”而著称,总是在1月21日和2月20日之间。设空处修饰better known as the Spring Festival,作状语,应用副词。故填actually。
6.between 考查介词。between...and...为固定短语,意为“在……和……之间”。故填between。
7.a 考查冠词。句意:每年除夕,中国人都会举行家庭的团聚盛宴。dinner为可数名词,此处泛指“一次团聚盛宴”,其前应用不定冠词。故填a。
8.exception 考查名词。句意:除夕夜,除了已婚的女儿,所有的家庭成员会尽力参加这次节日盛宴,即使他们要旅行很多英里都要回到父母的家。with the exception of...意为“除……外”。故填exception。
9.to return 考查非谓语动词。根据句意可知,“旅行很多英里”的目的是“回到父母的家”,因此设空处在句中作目的状语,应用动词不定式。故填to return。
10.awake 考查形容词。句意:年夜饭后,连孩子们都会一直不睡觉熬到半夜来迎接春节。stay在此为系动词,其后应接形容词,表示主语的状态;wake的形容词为awake。故填awake。

One possible version:
Dear Sir/Madam,
I am Li Hua,a senior three student from China.I’m writing to apply for the position as a volunteer teacher to teach Chinese in the coming summer vacation.
I’ll graduate from senior high school this summer and I’ll stay in England from July 7th to the end of August.As you know,I’m from China and I’m perfectly confident of my Chinese level. What’s more,I used to be a volunteer teacher and I’m sure my previous volunteering experience will qualify me for the job.More importantly,I’m good at English,which will enable me to communicate freely with the Chinese learners.
I would be grateful if you can offer me the chance. Looking forward to your early reply.
Yours,
Li Hua
