B
With
more
recognition
than
Halloween
and
less
than
Christmas,
Valentine's
Day
as
an
imported
festival
faces
a
dangerous
situation
in
China,
where
it's
caught
between
forces
of
tradition
and
fashion.
Valentine's
Day
has
a
natural
enemy
in
China.
And
it
is
not
the
Chinese
equivalent,
which
falls
on
the
seventh
day
of
the
seventh
month
on
the
lunar
calendar,
usually
around
half
a
year
away
from
Feb.14.
It
is
the
Spring
Festival,
also
known
as
the
Chinese
New
Year,
that
will
influence
the
Feast
of
Saint
Valentine.
The
real
disagreement
between
East
and
West
probably
took
place
over
a
century
ago,
when
China's
door
was
forced
open
by
Western
powers
and
Chinese
scholars
supported
westernization
as
a
means
to
strengthen
our
nation's
ability
to
compete.
The
introduction
of
the
solar
calendar
and
Western
measurements
was
both
an
acknowledgment
of
their
influence
and
an
effort
to
be
accepted
by
the
world
order.
For
a
full
century,
we
have
had
two
systems
running
in
parallel.
When
it
comes
to
the
eventual
outcome,
practicality
usually
beats
all
other
concerns.
Laws
can
help,
such
as
the
three
traditional
festivals
of
Tomb
Sweeping,
Dragon
Boat
and
Mid?Autumn
gaining
legal
status
in
2008
and
giving
every
Chinese
citizen
a
day
off,
but
laws
cannot
push
what
people
have
no
feelings
for.
So,
the
celebration
or
boycott
of
imported
holidays
or
homegrown
ones
should
be
no
cause
for
worry.
If
they
are
irrelevant,
no
social
media
will
change
the
public's
mind;
and
if
they
are
accepted,
there
must
be
a
need
which
they
happen
to
satisfy.
Since
we
have
no
global
Qin
Shihuang
to
force
one
system
on
every
country,
we
can
always
rely
on
a
dual
approach
by
which
we
share
with
the
outside
world
on
the
one
hand
but
preserve
our
own
ways
of
life
on
the
other.

4．What
does
the
author
think
about
Valentine's
Day
in
present
China?
A．It
meets
with
a
natural
enemy.
B．It
is
better
known
than
Christmas.
C．It
strongly
attacks
Chinese
culture.
D．It
is
more
popular
with
young
people.
答案：A 推理判断题。根据第一段可知，情人节在中国有一个天敌——春节，由此可推知，它一定程度上侵袭了中国文化。故选A。
5．The
underlined
word
“equivalent”
in
the
first
paragraph
refers
to
.
A．the
Dragon?boat
Festival
B．the
Spring
Festival
C．the
Mid?Autumn
Festival
D．the
Chinese
Valentine's
Day
答案：D 词义猜测题。根据第一段画线词后面的“which
falls
on
the
seventh
day
of
the
seventh
month
on
the
lunar
calendar,
usually
around
half
a
year
away
from
Feb.14”并结合常识可知，此处指七夕节，即中国的情人节，故选D。
6．According
to
the
author,
the
leading
factor
to
decide
what
to
celebrate
is
.
A．current
laws
B．people's
needs
C．public
media
D．age?old
tradition
答案：B 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“If
they
are
irrelevant,
no
social
media
will
change
the
public's
mind;
and
if
they
are
accepted,
there
must
be
a
need
which
they
happen
to
satisfy.”可知，如果它们(节日)无关紧要，任何社交媒体都不能改变公众的想法；如果它们被接受了，那么必然有人们的某种需求恰好被满足了。由此可推知，作者认为，决定庆祝什么的主要因素是人们的需求。故选B。
7．The
author
believes
that
.
A．the
conflict
between
the
East
and
the
West
will
last
long
B．Chinese
festivals
are
to
be
paid
more
attention
to
in
years
C．both
Chinese
and
foreign
systems
of
festivals
can
co?exist
in
China
D．this
cultural
shock
is
normal
and
will
be
received
by
more
people
in
the
future
答案：C 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“we
can
always
rely
on
a
dual
approach
by
which
we
share
with
the
outside
world
on
the
one
hand
but
preserve
our
own
ways
of
life
on
the
other”可知，作者认为，在中国，中外节日体制是可以并存的。故选C。

【佳句背诵】 The
introduction
of
the

calendar
and
Western
measurements
was
both
an
acknowledgment
of
their

the

引进阳历和西方的测量方法，既是对其影响的承认，也是为世界秩序所接受做出的努力。
C
Chinese
Dragon
Head?raising
Festival
is
a
traditional
Chinese
festival
held
on
the
second
day
of
the
second
month
of
the
Chinese
calendar.
It
marks
the
start
of
spring
and
farming.
Ancient
people
believed
that
after
this
day,
rainfall
increases
because
the
rain?bringing
Dragon
King
has
woken
up
from
his
winter
sleep.
In
ancient
times,
farming
highly
depended
on
the
weather.
Proper
rainfall
and
plenty
of
sunlight
were
necessary
for
a
good
harvest
at
the
end
of
the
year.
The
Chinese
dragon,
besides
a
symbol
of
good
luck
and
great
power,
is
also
the
god
managing
weather
and
water.
So
Dragon
Head?raising
Day
is
about
honoring
the
Chinese
dragon
and
praying
for
good
weather
in
spring.
The
festival
celebrates
ancient
agrarian
Chinese
culture,
and
while
some
of
traditional
ways
to
celebrate
it
are
no
longer
practiced,
others
persist.
The
most
famous
tradition
is
getting
a
haircut.
A
saying
warns
that
cutting
your
hair
in
the
first
month
will
cause
your
uncle
to
die.
Although
today
few
pay
attention
to
it,
it
was
once
tradition
for
people
to
line
up
outside
barber
shops
this
day
after
they
avoided
haircuts
for
the
preceding
month.
Today
Chinese
Dragon
Head?raising
Day
is
celebrated
in
many
different
ways,
most
of
which
are
still
similar
to
those
practiced
in
the
ancient
times,
including
eating
spring
pancakes
and
noodles.
People
eat
tofu
balls
in
East
China's
Fujian
Province
during
the
festival
while
fried
beans
are
the
traditional
festival
food
for
people
in
parts
of
Shandong
Province.
Food
eaten
on
this
day
also
gets
a
lucky
name.
For
example,
noodles
are
“dragons
beard”
and
dumplings
are
“dragons
ears”．
篇章导读：本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述的是中国的一个传统的节日——龙抬头。
8．In
fact
ancient
Chinese
held
Dragon
Head?raising
Day
.
A．to
get
as
much
rain
as
possible
B．to
celebrate
the
Dragon
King's
birthday
C．to
wake
up
the
sleeping
Dragon
King
D．to
wish
for
good
weather
for
better
farming
答案：D 细节理解题。根据第一段最后两句可知，中国的龙除了象征好运和强大的力量外，也是管理天气和环境的神。所以，龙抬头是为了纪念中国的龙，祈求龙赐予春天好天气。故选D。
9．The
underlined
word
“persist”
probably
is
close
to
“
”
in
Paragraph
2.
A．perish
B．consist
C．continue
D．insist
答案：C 词义猜测题。根据画线词前的“The
festival
celebrates
ancient
agrarian
Chinese
culture,
and
while
some
of
traditional
ways
to
celebrate
it
are
no
longer
practiced”可知，这个节日庆祝古老的农耕文化，尽管一些传统的庆祝方式已经不复存在，而下一句则是与它相对的，所以“其他的继续存在”符合语境。故选C。
10．This
passage
was
most
probably
written
for
.
A．people
learning
about
agrarian
culture
B．people
interested
in
Chinese
traditional
culture

farmers
in
need
of
good
weather
conditions
D．Chinese
students

long
history
of

Head?raising
Day
C．The
Celebration
of
Dragon
Head?raising
Day
D．The
Introduction
of
Dragon
Head?raising
Day
答案：D 标题判断题。阅读全文可知，本文主要讲述了中国的传统节日——龙抬头，介绍了节日的起源，节日的风俗习惯等等，所以D项“The
Introduction
of
Dragon
Head?raising
Day”作为题目最全面，最合适。故选D。

2 Healthy
eating
课时作业
Ⅰ.阅读
(2020·“皖豫联盟体”高中毕业班第一次考试)Do
you
know
that
junk
food
isn't
healthy?
Of
course
you
do!
Do
you
eat
it
anyway?
Of
course
you
do!
But
a
new
study
shows
teaching
adolescents
about
the
ways
food
companies
fool
them
into
thinking
junk
food
is
cool
can
encourage
kids
to
fight
back—by
eating
healthier.
The
pull
of
junk
food
can
be
super?strong.
It's
designed
to
be
tasty,
which
makes
eating
well
one
of
the
great
health
challenges
of
our
time.
Everyone
from
doctors
to
the
government
has
been
trying
to
handle
it.
Yet
we
keep
eating
junk
food.
Professor
Christopher
Bryan
says,
“Food
companies
want
you
to
want
junk
food.”
They
spend
millions
of
dollars
coming
up
with
new
ways
to
promote
junk
food
consumption.
They
hire
scientists
to
make
new
junk
food
almost
irresistible.
They
might
do
this,
for
example,
by
adding
more
sugar.
Rats
fed
junk
food
for
six
weeks
will
even
walk
across
a
floor
that
gives
them
electric
shocks
just
to
get
more
of
such
food.
Food
ads
often
make
unhealthy
junk
food
seem
healthy
by
featuring
professional
athletes,
fit?looking
pop
stars
and
smiling,
active
teens.
“We
thought
when
the
students
learned
this,
it
would
matter
to
them，”
Bryan
says.
He
worked
with
8th
graders
at
a
Texas
school.
Half
of
them
got
a
lesson
Bryan
created.
It
focused
on
the
ways
junk
food
is
advertised,
or
marketed.
A
second
group
received
lessons
that
focused
on
health.
These
lessons
informed
students
junk
food
is
bad,
and
that
foods
like
apples
or
carrots
are
a
better
choice.
The
students
learned
a
bad
diet
can
lead
to
major
weight
gain，and
that
being
overweight
puts
people
at
risk
for
serious
diseases.
They
also
learned
how
eating
well
now
can
keep
them
healthy
when
they're
older.
After
the
lessons,
the
kids
in
both
groups
were
asked
how
they
felt
about
junk
food.
Most
didn't
have
positive
feelings
about
these
unhealthy
foods.

topic
for
discussion.
答案：D 推理判断题。通读全文内容可以推断，文章第一段中提及那两个问题是为了引出本文要讨论的话题。
2．What
remains
a
great
health
challenge
to
doctors?
A．Making
people
do
more
exercise.
B．Making
people
eat
healthily.
C．Making
people
lose
weight.
D．Making
people
prefer
junk
food.
答案：B 细节理解题。根据文章第二段中的“It's
designed
to
be
tasty,
which
makes
eating
well
one
of
the
great
health
challenges
of
our
time.
Everyone
from
doctors
to
the
government
has
been
trying
to
handle
it.”可知，垃圾食品很美味，这使吃得好成为一个巨大的健康挑战，从医生到政府每一个人都一直在努力应对这一挑战。由此可知，对医生而言，让人们吃得健康依然是一个巨大的健康挑战。
3．What
message
does
Paragraph
3
mainly
try
to
convey?
A．What
makes
junk
food
almost
impossible
to
resist.
B．What
influences
junk
food
can
have
on
consumers.
C．How
food
companies
try
to
get
people
to
reach
for
junk
food.
D．Why
food
companies
promote
the
consumption
of
junk
food.
答案：C 推理判断题。文章第三段中先提到“食品公司想要消费者吃垃圾食品”，紧接着说到“他们(食品公司)花巨资想办法推广垃圾食品，聘请科学家制作令人无法抗拒的垃圾食品”，接着还举例说“他们可能会往垃圾食品中添加更多的糖”。由此可以推断，作者在本段主要是想告诉读者，食品公司是如何想方设法让人们去吃垃圾食品的。
4．Which
of
the
following
words
can
best
describe
Bryan's
lessons?
A．Shocking.
B．Popular.
C．Effective.
D．Abstract.
答案：C 推理判断题。文章第四段主要介绍Bryan给德克萨斯州的一所学校的八年级学生们上的课。根据文章最后一段“After
the
lessons,
the
kids
in
both
groups
were
asked
how
they
felt
about
junk
food.
Most
didn't
have
positive
feelings
about
these
unhealthy
foods.”可知，课后当这些孩子被问及他们对垃圾食品的看法时，大多数人对这些不健康的食品都持消极的看法。由此可以推断，Bryan的课是有效的。

Healthiest
Foods
on
the
Planet
(2020·河南省平顶山市高三阶段性检测)There
is
probably
no
flower
more
hated,
or
misunderstood,
than
the
bright
yellow
dandelion
(蒲公英).
1
In
an
effort
to
have
the
perfect
green
grass
lawn,
people
try
their
best
to
kill
all
dandelions
with
chemical
products.
Or
they
dig
them
out
at
the
roots—only
to
see
them
grow
right
back.
2
They
are
a
great
source
of
vitamin
K
and
also
are
a
good
source
of
vitamins
A
and
C.
They
also
have
vitamin
E,
folate
and
small
amounts
of
other
B
vitamins.
Also,
they
provide
lots
of
iron,
calcium,
magnesium
and
potassium.
Besides
nutrition,
another
great
thing
about
dandelions
is
that
you
can
eat
every
part
of
them—from
the
bottom
of
the
roots
to
the
top
of
the
flower.
3
Do
not
eat
ones
that
have
been
treated
with
dangerous
chemicals
or
are
growing
near
high
traffic
areas.
Dandelions
are
said
to
provide
several
possible
health
benefits
such
as
helping
in
digestion
and
improving
some
skin
conditions.
They
may
also
reduce
inflammation
(炎症)．
Children
in
many
parts
of
the
world
have
had
the
simple
pleasure
of
blowing
the
soft,
white
dandelion
tops.
4
In
fact,
there
is
a
game
children
play
with
dandelions
that
have
gone
to
seed.
Pick
the
white
top,
make
a
wish,
close
your
eyes
and
blow!
If
you
blow
all
of
the
seeds
off
in
one
breath,
your
wish
will
come
true!
5
A．Well,
that
is
what
many
children
believe.
B．They
watch
the
seeds
float
easily
in
the
air.
C．At
least
the
seeds
have
traveled
far
and
wide.
D．Just
make
sure
to
take
care
when
picking
wild
dandelions.
E．You
can
let
more
of
this
nutritious
food
source
continue
to
grow.
F．Dandelions
are
actually
one
of
the
most
nutritious
foods
in
the
world.
G．In
the
United
States,
they
are
considered
“weeds”，
the
name
for
any
unwanted
plant.
篇章导读：本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了蒲公英的益处。蒲公英实际上是世界上最有营养的食物之一。它们是维生素K的重要来源，也是维生素A和C的良好来源。它们还含有维生素E和少量其他维生素B。
1．G 根据后面的“people
try
their
best
to
kill
all
dandelions”可知，人们千方百计消灭所有的蒲公英。由此推知，在美国，蒲公英被认为是“杂草”，是指那些不想要的植物。故选G。
2．F 根据后面“They
are
a
great
source
of
vitamin
K
and
also
are
a
good
source
of
vitamins
A
and
C.
(它们是维生素K的重要来源，也是维生素A和C的良好来源。)”可知，讨论的是蒲公英所含的各种维生素。由此推知，本段介绍的是蒲公英实际上是世界上最有营养的食物之一。故选F。
3．D 根据后面的“Do
not
eat
ones
that
have
been
treated
with
dangerous
chemicals
or
are
growing
near
high
traffic
areas.(不要吃那些经过危险化学品处理或生长在交通繁忙地区附近的蒲公英。)”可推测此处为说明采摘野生蒲公英时一定要小心。故选D。
4．B 根据前面的“Children
in
many
parts
of
the
world
have
had
the
simple
pleasure
of
blowing
the
soft,
white
dandelion
tops.(世界上许多地方的孩子都有吹蒲公英的简单乐趣。)”可知，此处承接上文，说明孩子喜欢吹蒲公英的表现有：他们看着种子轻松地漂浮在空中。故选B。
5．A 根据前面的“If
you
blow
all
of
the
seeds
off
in
one
breath,
your
wish
will
come
true!
(如果你一口气吹掉所有的种子，你的愿望就会实现！)”可知，此处承接上文，指出许多孩子相信吹掉所有种子愿望就会实现。故选A。
Ⅳ.概要写作
阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
The
food
we
eat
seems
to
have
a
great
effect
on
our
health.
Although
science
has
made
big
steps
in
making
food
fitter
to
eat,
it
has,
at
the
same
time,
made
many
foods
unfit
to
eat.
Some
research
has
shown
that
perhaps
eighty
percent
of
human
illness
is
related
to
food
and
forty
percent
of
cancer
is
caused
by
food.
This
is
not
a
new
discovery.
In
1945,
some
researchers
realised
that
things
commonly
used
to
keep
colours
in
meat
and
other
food
additives
(添加剂)
caused
cancer.
Yet,
these
additives
remain
in
our
food,
and
it
is
difficult
to
know
which
things
on
the
wrappings
of
food
are
helpful
or
harmful.
The
additives
which
we
eat
are
not
all
so
direct.
Farmers
often
give
penicillin
to
their
animals,
and
because
of
this,
penicillin
has
been
found
in
the
milk
of
cows.
Sometimes
similar
things
are
supplied
to
animals
not
for
their
health,
but
just
to
make
a
profit.
The
farmers
are
simply
trying
to
fatten
the
animals
in
order
to
get
a
higher
price
on
the
market.
Although
some
countries
have
tried
to
control
such
things,
the
practice
continues.

Science
has
made
the
quality
of
our

Meanwhile
much
food
is
made

Research
has
proved
that
most
of
our

are
caused
by
some

including
cancer.
(要点1)
Apart
from
this,
similar
things
are
provided
for
animals
by
farmers
not
for
their
health,
but
just
to
make
a

Although

this

still
exists.

Ⅰ.阅读
A
(2018·浙江高考)In
1812,
the
year
Charles
Dickens
was
born,
there
were
66
novels
published
in
Britain.
People
had
been
writing
novels
for
a
century—most
experts
date
the
first
novel
to
Robinson
Crusoe
in
1719—but
nobody
wanted
to
do
it
professionally.
The
steam?powered
printing
press
was
still
in
its
early
stages;
the
literacy
(识字)
rate
in
England
was
under
50%.
Many
works
of
fiction
appeared
without
the
names
of
the
authors,
often
with
something
like
“By
a
lady.”
Novels,
for
the
most
part,
were
looked
upon
as
silly,
immoral
or
just
plain
bad.
In
1870,
when
Dickens
died,
the
world
mourned
him
as
its
first
professional
writer
and
publisher,
famous
and
beloved,
who
had
led
an
explosion
in
both
the
publication
of
novels
and
their
readership
and
whose
characters—from
Oliver
Twist
to
Tiny
Tim—were
held
up
as
moral
touchstones.
Today
Dickens'
greatness
is
unchallenged.
Removing
him
from
the
pantheon
(名人堂)
of
English
literature
would
make
about
as
much
sense
as
the
Louvre
selling
off
the
Mona
Lisa.
How
did
Dickens
get
to
the
top?
For
all
the
feelings
readers
attach
to
stories,
literature
is
a
numbers
game,
and
the
test
of
time
is
extremely
difficult
to
pass.
Some
60,000
novels
were
published
during
the
Victorian
age,
from
1837
to
1901;
today
a
casual
reader
might
be
able
to
name
a
half?dozen
of
them.
It's
partly
true
that
Dickens'
style
of
writing
attracted
audiences
from
all
walks
of
life.
It's
partly
that
his
writings
rode
a
wave
of
social,
political
and
scientific
progress.
But
it's
also
that
he
rewrote
the
culture
of
literature
and
put
himself
at
the
center.
No
one
will
ever
know
what
mix
of
talent,
ambition,
energy
and
luck
made
Dickens
such
a
distinguished
writer.
But
as
the
200th
anniversary
of
his
birth
approaches,
it
is
possible—and
important
for
our
own
culture—to
understand
how
he
made
himself
a
lasting
one.
篇章导读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了英国小说家狄更斯在文学上的成就。在他200周年诞辰之际，让我们永远记住这位对文学艺术作出巨大贡献的小说家。
1．Which
of
the
following
best
describes
British
novels
in
the
18th
century?
A．They
were
difficult
to
understand.
B．They
were
popular
among
the
rich.
C．They
were
seen
as
nearly
worthless.
D．They
were
written
mostly
by
women.
答案：C 细节理解题。由题干中的18世纪可定位到第一段。由该段最后一句“Novels,
for
the
most
part,
were
looked
upon
as
silly,
immoral
or
just
plain
bad.”可知，在18世纪，英国的小说被认为几乎没有价值。故选C。
2．Dickens
is
compared
with
the
Mona
Lisa
in
the
text
to
stress
.
A．his
reputation
in
France
B．his
interest
in
modern
art
C．his
success
in
publication
D．his
importance
in
literature
答案：D 细节理解题。由第二段最后两句可知，把他从英国文学殿堂中剔除的意义如同卢浮宫抛售《蒙娜·丽莎》。将狄更斯与《蒙娜·丽莎》进行比较是为了强调狄更斯在文学上的重要性。故选D。
3．What
is
the
author's
purpose
in
writing
the
text?
A．To
remember
a
great
writer.
B．To
introduce
an
English
novel.
C．To
encourage
studies
on
culture.
D．To
promote
values
of
the
Victorian
age.
答案：A 推理判断题。根据最后一段最后一句以及全文可知，文章主要介绍了狄更斯的伟大成就，旨在让人们永远记住这位伟大的作家。故选A。

B
(2019·陕西省咸阳市高三第二次质量检测)Most
people
have
heard
of
Shakespeare
and
probably
know
something
of
the
plays
that
he
wrote.
However,
not
everybody
knows
much
about
the
life
of
this
remarkable
man,
except
perhaps
that
he
was
born
in
the
market
town
of
Stratford?upon?Avon
and
that
he
married
a
woman
called
Anne
Hathaway.
We
know
nothing
of
his
school
life.
We
do
not
know,
for
example,
how
long
it
lasted,
but
we
presume
that
he
attended
the
local
grammar
school,
where
the
principal
subject
taught
was
Latin.
Nothing
certain
is
known
of
what
he
did
between
the
time
he
left
school
and
his
departure
for
London.
According
to
a
local
legend,
he
was
beaten
and
even
put
in
prison
for
stealing
rabbits
and
deer
from
the
estate
of
neighbouring
landowner,
Sir
Thomas
Lucy.
It
is
said
that
because
of
this
he
was
forced
to
run
away
from
his
native
place.
A
different
legend
says
that
he
was
apprenticed
to
a
Stratford
butcher,
but
did
not
like
the
life
and
for
this
reason
he
decided
to
leave
Stratford.
Whatever
caused
him
to
leave
the
town
of
his
birth,
the
world
can
be
grateful
that
he
did
so.
What
is
certain
is
that
he
set
his
foot
on
the
road
to
fame
when
he
arrived
in
London.
It
is
said
that
at
first
he
was
without
money
or
friends
there,
but
that
he
earned
a
little
by
taking
care
of
the
horses
of
the
gentleman
who
attended
the
plays
at
the
theatre.
They
stopped
and
spoke
to
him.
They
found
his
conversations
so
brilliant
that
finally
he
was
invited
to
join
their
company.

C
The
news
of
Harper
Lee's
second
novel
broke
the
Internet.
Go
Set
a
Watchman
would
be
published
in
July.
Lee
became
a
recluse
after
the
publication
of
her
first
book,
To
Kill
a
Mockingbird,
in
1960.
Although
the
author
has
been
out
of
the
public
eye
for
more
than
50
years,
the
wave
that
followed
the
announcement
showed
her
novel's
beloved
place
in
the
American
literary
works.
In
1991,
The
Book
of
the
Month
Club
and
the
Library
of
Congress
conducted
a
survey
that
made
readers
identify
books
that
had
made
a
difference
in
their
lives.
Lee's
book
followed
only
The
Bible.
English
class
is
a
place
where
young
Americans
come
to
know
themselves.
In
the
folds
of
dusty
books,
students
can
make
contact
with
humanity
beyond
the
superficial
conversations
of
the
school
hallways.
Literature
promises
relief,
a
place
to
figure
out
one's
problems
and
get
to
know
oneself
better.
To
Kill
a
Mockingbird
particularly
distinguishes
itself
in
this
regard.
It
speaks
in
a
child's
voice
without
treating
its
readership
as
children.
People
have
called
it
an
‘impossible’
achievement,
a
children's
book
penned
in
the
prose
of
a
well?educated
adult—it's
unlikely
that
a
child
like
Scout
could
exist
in
the
real
world.
But
that's
exactly
what
makes
it
such
a
charming
read
for
young
people.
It
alludes
to
the
consciousness
of
a
well?educated
adult
going
through
difficult
realities,
but
shows
it
through
the
light
and
playful
voice
of
a
curious
little
girl.
篇章导读：本文是一篇说明文。文章以哈珀·李的第二部小说的问世为引子，介绍了她的代表作《杀死一只知更鸟》。
8．In
which
year
might
Go
Set
a
Watchman
come
out?
A．2015.
B．1960.
C．1910.
D．1991.
答案：A 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Lee
became
a

after
the
publication
of
her
first
book,
To
Kill
a
Mockingbird,
in
1960.
Although
the

more

50
years”可知，哈珀·李在1960年出版了第一本书《杀死一只知更鸟》后便归隐，远离了公众视线五十多年。结合选项，第二本书《设立守望者》只可能在2015年出版。故选A。
9．Which
book
leaves
the
deepest
impression
on
American
readers?
A．Go
Set
a
Watchman.
B．To
Kill
a
Mockingbird.
C．The
Bible.
D．Shakespeare's
works.
答案：C 细节理解题。根据第二段可知，根据调查，读者认为《圣经》对他们的生活产生的影响最大，给人们的印象最为深刻，《杀死一只知更鸟》仅次于《圣经》。故选C。
10．What
can
we
conclude
about
To
Kill
a
Mockingbird?
A．Its
author
may
be
a
playful
child.
B．It's
a
story
about
a
well?educated
adult.
C．Young
people
can
see
themselves
from
it.
D．It's
impossible
for
children
like
Scout
to
exist.
答案：D 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“it's
unlikely
that
a
child
like
Scout
could
exist
in
the
real
world”可知，像Scout这样的小孩是不可能存在于现实世界中的。故选D。
11．What
is
the
best
title
for
the
text?
A．The
Great
Writer:
Harper
Lee
B．The
Great
Young
People
Novel
C．Voices
from
Children
D．Differences
Harper
Lee
Made
答案：B 标题判断题。通读全文可知，本文是围绕《杀死一只知更鸟》这本书而写的，这是一本受年轻人喜欢的小说。故选B。

篇章导读：本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了珠穆朗玛峰的污染情况以及现在采取的应对污染的措施和取得的进步。
1．successfully 考查词性转换。修饰谓语动词应用副词，故填successfully。
2．waiting 考查非谓语动词。此处介词about后应用动名词形式，故填waiting。
3．crowds 考查名词。根据空格前的形容词dangerous可知，空处应用名词形式，crowd
“人群”为可数名词，且句子的谓语aren't为复数形式，所以应用复数形式crowds。
4．to
bring 考查非谓语动词。此处表示所有这些登山者都需要带着大量设备，故此处用need
to
do
sth.
“需要做某事”。
5．tallest 考查形容词的最高级。根据句中的the
world's表述“全世界范围内的”可知，此处表示最高级的含义，故用形容词最高级tallest。
6．that 考查名词性从句的连接词。分析句子结构并结合句意可知，此处引导表语从句，引导词在从句中不充当成分，无语义，仅起连接作用，故用that引导该从句。
7．have
collected 考查动词的时态和主谓一致。根据句中的时间状语So
far可知，此处表示截止到现在已收集的垃圾数量，所以应用现在完成时；又因为主语they为复数，故填have
collected。
8．a 考查冠词。此处表示“一个更高的目标”，表泛指，在文中第一次提到，且higher的发音以辅音音素开头，故用a。
9．in 考查介词。根据句意可知，此处表示“在尼泊尔的首都”，故填in
“在(某范围或空间内的)某一点”。
10．is 考查动词的时态和主谓一致。根据语境可知，此处为一般性描述，应用一般现在时；该句主语为“Part
of
the

课时作业
Ⅰ.阅读
(2020·贵阳市普通高中高三年级摸底考试)Many
of
us
think,
wrongly,
that
the
moon
doesn't
change.
For
example,
the
Tang
Dynasty
poet
Zhang
Ruoxu
once
wrote
that
“Generations
have
come
and
passed
away;
From
year
to
year
the
moons
look
alike,
old
and
new.”
However,
a
new
study
published
in
the
journal
Nature
Geoscience
shows
that
the
moon
is
in
fact
slowly
shrinking
over
time.
For
the
study,
a
group
of
US
scientists
examined
and
analyzed
thousands
of
photographs
taken
by
the
NASA's
Lunar
Reconnaissance
Orbiter
Camera
(月球勘测轨道飞行器照相机).
They
found
that
there
were
lots
of
faults
(断层)
on
the
surface
of
the
moon.
These
faults
were
formed
by
recent
movement
on
the
moon.
According
to
NASA,
the
moon
is
made
up
of
pieces
of
rocks
with
a
hot
core.
The
moon
continued
to
expand
as
it
was
born.
But
in
this
process,
it
released
energy
and
cooled
down.
Then
it
began
to
shrink,
in
a
way
comparable
to
the
shrinking
of
a
grape
into
a
raisin.
Over
the
past
several
hundred
million
years,
it
has
become
46
meters
“skinnier”.
But
due
to
its
hard
and
rocky
layer,
the
moon's
surface
continues
to
push
up.
“Some
of
these
quakes
can
be
fairly
strong,
around
five
on
the
Richter
scale
(里氏震级)，”
said
Thomas
Watters,
a
senior
scientist
at
the
Smithsonian's
National
Air
and
Space
Museum
in
the
US.
But
does
that
mean
the
moon
is
a
dangerous
place
that
human
shouldn't
try
to
explore
and
live
on
in
the
future?
Maybe
not,
reported
The
Telegraph.“This
isn't
anything
to
worry
about.
The
moon
may
be
shrinking,
but
not
by
much.
It's
not
going
anywhere，”
Watters
comforted
us.
The
new
discovery
proves
that
the
idea
that
the
moon
is
a
dead,
boring
place
is
wrong.
“We
have
been
to
the
moon
and
we've
done
some
great
science,
but
there
is
still
a
lot
we
don't
know.
The
moon
is
shrinking—we
didn't
really
realize
that
until
recently.
It's
a
much
more
active
and
interesting
place
than
we
thought
and
we
should
explore
that，”
NASA
scientist
Nathan
Williams
said.
篇章导读：本文是一篇说明文。一项最新的科学研究表明，月球正在随着时间慢慢地缩小。此外，这项研究还表明月球还有许多我们不了解的东西，它是一个比我们认为的更活跃、更有意思的地方，值得我们探索。
1．Which
point
of
view
about
the
moon
may
the
writer
agree
to?
A．It
stays
the
same
as
before.
B．It
is
becoming
slightly
smaller.
C．It
is
getting
older
and
older.
D．It
has
passed
away.
答案：B 细节理解题。根据第二段第一句“However,
a
new
study
...
shows
that
the
moon
is
in
fact
slowly
shrinking
over
time.”可知，一项新的发表在《自然·地球科学》上的研究表明，月球正在随着时间慢慢地缩小，据此可知B项正确。
2．What
can
we
learn
about
the
moon
from
the
third
paragraph?
A．It
has
become
46
meters
fatter
due
to
expanding.
B．It
has
changed
from
a
grape
into
a
raisin
in
recent
years.
C．It
quakes
even
at
seven
on
the
Richter
scale.
D．It
has
a
hot
core
and
releases
energy
during
expanding.
答案：D 细节理解题。根据第三段前三句中的“the
moon
is
made
up
of
pieces
of
rocks
with
a
hot
core”
“The
moon
continued
to
expand
as
it
was
born.
But
in
this
process,
it
released
energy”可知，月球由带有一个热核的岩石块组成，自它形成时月球就在持续膨胀，在这个过程中它会释放能量，故D项正确。
3．Who
thinks
that
we
needn't
worry
about
the
moon?
A．Zhang
Ruoxu.
B．Thomas
Watters.
C．Nathan
Williams.
D．The
journalist.
答案：B 细节理解题。根据第四段中Thomas
Watters说的话“This
isn't
anything
to
worry
about
...
It's
not
going
anywhere”可知，Thomas
Watters认为我们不必担心月球，尽管月球在缩小，但它并没有缩小很多，故B项正确。
4．What
does
Nathan
Williams
think
of
the
moon?
A．It
is
a
dead
and
boring
place.
B．It
has
lots
of
faults
on
the
surface.
C．It
is
valuable
to
do
more
science.
D．It
isn't
a
place
where
we
can
live.
答案：C 推理判断题。根据最后一段中Nathan
Williams说的话“We
have
been
to
the
moon
and
we've
done
some
great
science
...
we
should
explore
that”可知，Nathan
Williams认为月球有许多我们不了解的东西，值得我们去探索。据此可推知，他认为研究月球是有价值的，故C项正确。

know
that
choosing
a
college
major
can
be
very
hard.
But
have
no
fear!
Your
choice
of
major
will
not
lock
you
into
a
specific
career
for
the
rest
of
your
life.
Here's
what
you
need
to
know
about
college
majors
before
you
choose.
What
is
a
major?
1
Beyond
general
college
requirements,
you'll
also
take
a
group
of
courses
in
a
subject
of
your
choosing,
such
as
Chemistry,
Literature,
or
Political
Science.
How
important
is
my
major?
The
major
you
choose
will
neither
predict
nor
guarantee
your
future.
Many
graduates
find
jobs
that
have
nothing
to
do
with
what
they
studied
in
college.
If
you
intend
to
earn
a
professional
degree
after
college,
you
will
probably
need
certain
courses.
2
When
do
I
choose
a
major?
This
varies
widely
across
schools
and
programs.
3
Others
require
that
you
decide
upon
a
major
by
the
time
that
you
set
foot
inside
your
first
class.
4
Definitely.
One
of
the
most
exciting
aspects
of
college
life
is
that
it
introduces
you
to
new
subjects
and
arouses
new
passions.
However,
keep
this
in
mind:
every
major
has
necessary
coursework.
If
you
change
your
major
late
in
the
game,
it
may
take
more
than
the
traditional
four
years
to
earn
a
degree.
What
are
minors
and
double
majors?
If
one
field
of
study
doesn't
satisfy
your
intellectual
appetite,
consider
a
minor.
A
minor
is
similar
to
a
major
in
that
it's
an
area
of
academic
concentration.
5
A
double
major
provides
you
with
an
understanding
of
two
academic
fields.
It
allows
you
to
become
familiar
with
two
sets
of
values
and
views
while
it
also
requires
you
to
fulfill
two
sets
of
requirements.
A．Can
I
change
my
mind?
B．Is
my
major
time－consuming?
C．It's
your
specialized
area
of
study
in
college.
D．Most
students
find
one
major
is
more
than
enough.
E．Some
schools
may
give
you
one
year
or
more
to
decide.
F．Many
future
science
doctors
major
in
non－science
related
fields.
G．The
only
difference
is
that
it
doesn't
require
as
many
classes.
篇章导读：本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了大学选专业前应了解的几个方面，包括专业是什么，专业的重要程度，选专业的时间，是否能换专业以及什么是辅修课程和双学位等。
1．C'根据该段的标题可知，设空处应是对标题的问题作出回答，故C项“它是大学里你学习的专业领域”符合语境。
2．F'该段主要谈到专业并非那么重要。设空前一句谈到“如果你打算在大学毕业后获得专业学位，你可能需要某些课程”，由此可推知，F项承接上文，再次说明专业并非那么重要。故F项符合语境。
3．E'根据设空后的“Others
require
that
you
decide
upon
a
major
by
the
time
that
you
set
foot
inside
your
first
class.”可知，其他的学校要求你第一次走进教室就决定你选择的专业，设空处应是说明一些学校的做法，故E项“一些学校可能给你一年或更多的时间决定”符合语境。
4．A'由该段中的“Definitely”
“If
you
change
your
major
late
in
the
game,
it
may
take
more
than
the
traditional
four
years
to
earn
a
degree.”可知，该段应是谈到可不可以改变主意，换专业，故选A项。
5．G'设空前一句谈到辅修与主修的相似之处，空处应是讲两者的不同之处，故G项“唯一不同的是，辅修不需要那么多的课程”符合语境。

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。续写的词数应为150左右。
A
few
years
ago
I
worked
in
an
international
company
that
sold
computer
devices.
I
had
to
travel
a
lot
over
the
country
as
a
part
of
my
work.
I
remember
that
I
was
at
a
stage
of
my
life
where
I
only
cared
about
how
to
make
more
money.
On
one
of
my
trips,
I
came
to
the
airport
to
take
a
bus
to
downtown,
as
usual.
It
was
the
same
routine:
get
into
the
city,
take
the
bus
to
the
hotel,
visit
the
customer,
work
late,
take
the
bus
back
to
the
airport
and
fly
back
...
That
day,
for
some
reasons,
I
decided
to
take
the
stairs
down
to
a
different
exit,
where
I
came
across
a
beautiful
garden
I
had
never
seen
before.
I
waited
there,
enjoying
the
scenery.
Finally
the
bus
came.
Usually
I
always
took
the
seat
behind
the
driver.
That
day
I
sat
down
somewhere
in
the
middle.
A
boy
was
seated
next
to
me,
carrying
a
lot
of
suitcases.
Suddenly,
he
turned
to
me
and
gave
me
one
of
the
most
sincere
smiles
I
had
ever
seen
from
a
stranger.
Warmly,
he
said,
“Hi,
the
perfect
day
in
the
perfect
place,
huh？”
I
remember
thinking
to
myself—this
must
be
one
of
those
typical
people
who
are
young
and
naive
and
just
thinks
everything
is
beautiful
and
easy.
Why
was
he
annoying
me
when
I
just
wanted
to
enjoy
the
bus
ride?
But
out
of
politeness,
I
replied,
“Perfect!
Did
your
parents
pay
for
you
to
have
some
vacations
on
the
beach？”
“No,
I'm
not
here
for
vacation,
and
I
don't
have
parents，”
He
shook
his
head,
“I'm
here
because
I
want
to
achieve
my
biggest
dream.
I'm
on
the
way
to
the
army
school
where
my
grandfather
studied
a
long
time
ago.”
“I
lost
my
dad
10
years
ago
then
my
mom
married
again.
My
stepfather
...
He
smiled
and
told
me
he
had
only
one
thing
on
his
mind.
That
was

[精彩范文]
“I
lost
my
dad
10
years
ago
then
my
mom
married
again.
My
stepfather
threw
me
out
of
the
house.
Since
then,
I've
been
living
all
over
the
country.
I've
met
many
people
who
were
kind
to
me.
And
I've
learnt
a
lot
from
life
through
these
years，”
he
said
softly.
At
that
point
I
couldn't
say
a
word.
I
felt
the
tears
coming.
Fortunately,
he
continued
talking.
He
smiled
and
told
me
he
had
only
one
thing
on
his
mind.
That
was
to
join
the
army
school
like
his
grandfather.
“My
grandpa
was
a
general
of
the
army.
He
left
me
this.”
he
said
proudly.
He
showed
me
a
golden
knife
and
said
this
was
the
best
memory
of
his
childhood.
“The
only
thing
I
know
is
that
I
will
follow
my
dream
and
every
day
I
will
be
happy.”
Soon,
the
bus
reached
his
stop;
he
stood
up,
took
all
his
suitcases,
and
said
goodbye
with
a
big
smile.
From
that
day
on,
I
always
try
to
do
everything
with
my
best
smile
on
my
face.

make
it
attractive.
In

becomes
magnificent.
When

to
Canada,
travelers
can
enjoy
doing
shopping
at
Toronto
which
is
considered
a
leading

It
symbolizes
American
culture

C
The
Canadian
red
and
white
maple
leaf
flag
is
officially
called
the
National
Flag
of
Canada.
The
Canadian
flag
shows
a
stylized
red
maple
leaf
with
11
points
on
a
white
background,
with
red
borders
down
each
side.
The
Canadian
flag
is
twice
as
long
as
it
is
wide.
The
white
square
containing
the
red
maple
leaf
is
the
same
width
as
the
flag.
The
red
and
the
white
used
in
the
National
Flag
of
Canada
were
proclaimed
the
official
colors
of
Canada
in
1921
by
King
GeorgeⅤ.
Although
the
maple
leaf
did
not
have
its
official
status
as
a
symbol
of
Canada
until
the
announcement
of
the
national
flag
in
1965,
it
had
historically
been
used
as
a
Canadian
symbol,
and
was
used
in
1860
in
decorations
for
the
visit
of
the
Prince
of
Wales
to
Canada.
The
11
points
on
the
maple
leaf
have
no
special
significance.
In
the
early
days,
the
Royal
Union
Flag,
or
the
Union
Jack,
was
still
flown
in
British
North
America.
In
1925
and
again
in
1946,
the
Canadian
Prime
Minister
Mackenzie
King
tried
to
get
a
national
flag
of
Canada
adopted,
but
failed.
In
1964,
Prime
Minister
Lester
Pearson
appointed
a
15?member,
all?party
committee
to
come
up
with
a
design
for
a
new
flag.
The
committee
was
given
six
weeks
to
complete
its
task.
The
committee
studied
2,000
submitted
designs
as
well
as
3,900
that
had
been
gathered
as
a
result
of
the
1946
committee's
study.
Those
designs
with
a
chance
of
being
accepted
were
given
to
the
full
committee
for
further
study.
The
suggestion
of
a
red
and
white
single
maple
leaf
design
for
the
Canadian
flag
came
from
George
Stanley,
a
professor
at
the
Royal
Military
College.
After
a
heated
discussion,
they
finally
decided
on
his
suggestion.

8．How
many
colors
are
there
in
the
National
Flag
of
Canada?
A．One.
B．Two.
C．Three.
D．Four.
答案：B 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“The
Canadian
red
and
white
maple
leaf
flag
is
officially
called
the
National
Flag
of
Canada.”可知，加拿大国旗是由红色和白色两种颜色组成的，故选B。
9．When
did
Canada
have
its
own
national
flag?
A．In
1921.
B．In
1860.
C．In
1964.
D．In

篇章导读：本文是一篇说明文。研究发现，合唱可以缓解压力，减少沮丧，有利于精神健康。
1．that 考查同位语从句的连接词。设空处引导从句解释说明a
finding的内容，作其同位语，设空处在句中不作句子成分，无语义，仅起连接作用，故用that。
2．anxiety 考查词性转换。本空作reducing的宾语，与depression并列，故用名词anxiety。
3．called 考查非谓语动词。call和a
community
singing
group构成被动关系，故用其过去分词形式called作后置定语。
4．to
examine 考查非谓语动词。此处表示一个研究小组进行该研究是为了调查与他人一起唱歌是如何影响精神健康的，表目的，故用动词不定式to
examine。
5．who/that 考查定语从句的引导词。分析句子结构可知，此处引导限制性定语从句，先行词为people，从句中缺少主语，故填who或that。
6．an 考查冠词。part在此处为可数名词，且在文中第一次提及，故用不定冠词修饰，又essential的发音以元音音素开头，故填an。
7．less 考查副词的比较级。根据下文“enhanced
their
mood
...
feeling
of
well－being”可知，合唱帮助人们缓解压力，即帮助人们感受到更少的压力，故用副词的比较级less，修饰其后的形容词“stressed”。
8．to 考查介词。contribute
to
sth.是固定搭配，意为“有助于/促成某事”，故填to。
9．participants 考查名词。participant
“参与者”为可数名词，根据空格前的“All
of
the”可知，此处表示复数的概念，故填participants。
10．represented 考查动词的时态。分析句子结构可知，本句缺少谓语；根据后一句中的stood
out及全文的基本时态为一般过去时可知，此处应用一般过去时。故填represented。
