(2020·广西柳州市高三上学期摸底考试)Dr
Nancy
Roman,
born
in
1925,
who
was
celebrated
as
a
pioneer
for
female
scientists
and
had
advanced
the
launch
of
the
Hubble
Space
Telescope,
died
on
Dec.
25,
2018.
When
Nancy
Roman
asked
for
permission
to
take
a
second
algebra
(代数)
course
in
high
school,
a
teacher
demanded
to
know
“what
lady
would
take
mathematics
instead
of
Latin”.
In
college,
a
professor
admitted
that
he
often
tried
to
prevent
women
from
majoring
in
physics
but
Nancy
stuck
to
it.
And
after
receiving
Doctor's
degree
in
astronomy,
she
found
a
professional
home
at
NASA
(美国宇航局).
In
1959,
Dr
Roman
became
the
first
chief
of
astronomy
at
NASA
headquarters,
a
role
that
made
her
one
of
the
agency's
first
female
leaders.
Dr
Roman
spent
much
of
her
career
helping
develop,
fund
and
promote
technology
that
would
help
scientists
see
more
clearly
beyond
Earth's
atmosphere.
But
her
most
well?known
work
was
perhaps
leading
to
design
the
Hubble
Space
Telescope,
the
first
major
telescope
to
be
sent
into
space
for
the
purpose
of
gathering
photographs
and
data
from
the
universe.
She
was,
therefore,
named
as
“the
mother
of
Hubble”.
“She
made
it
possible
to
get
the
early
telescope
up
into
space
to
learn
what
needed
to
be
learned,”
said
science
historian
Bob
Zimmerman,
“and
her
hard?nosed
nature
helped
get
the
telescope
built.”
The
telescope
did
not
launch
until
1990,
a
little
more
than
a
decade
after
Dr
Roman
retired,
but
when
it
did,
its
photographs
of
the
universe
thrilled
the
world.
“I
am
glad,”
she
once
told
Science,
“I
ignored
the
people
who
told
me
that
I
could
not
be
an
astronomer.”
篇章导读:本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了美国天文学家Nancy
Roman传奇的一生。
文章旨在告诉我们坚持自己的梦想,你一定会成为你想成为的那个人!
1.What
can
we
conclude
from
the
teacher's
reaction
to
Nancy
Roman's
application
for
taking
a
second
algebra
course?
A.The
teacher
doubted
it.
B.The
teacher
didn't
care
about
it.
C.The
teacher
accepted
it
at
once.
D.The
teacher
was
strongly
against
it.
答案:A 推理判断题。根据第二段第一句可知,在中学时当Nancy
Roman请求批准再参加代数课程时,一位老师要求知道“哪个女士会选择数学而不是拉丁语?”可推知老师持怀疑的态度,故选A。
2.What
was
the
most
famous
achievement
of
Nancy
Roman's
work?
A.She
was
one
of
the
founders
of
NASA.
B.She
proved
the
black
hole
really
existed.
C.She
was
the
first
female
astronomer
in
the
world.
D.She
led
to
design
the
Hubble
Space
Telescope.
答案:D 细节理解题。根据第三段第二句“但是她最著名的工作也许是带领设计哈勃空间望远镜,这是第一个被送入太空的大型望远镜,目的是从宇宙中收集照片和数据。”可知选D。
3.When
did
Dr
Nancy
Roman
probably
retire?
A.In
1969.
B.In
1979.
C.In
1990.
D.In
2000.
答案:B 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“The
telescope
did
not
launch
until
1990,
a
little
more
than
a
decade
after
Dr
Roman
retired”(这种望远镜直到1990年才发射升空,在
Roman博士退休后的十多年)可推知选B。
4.What
can
we
learn
from
Dr
Nancy
Roman's
words
in
the
last
paragraph?
A.She
was
very
proud
of
what
she
had
done
for
the
country.
B.She
thought
highly
of
the
people
who
hadn't
believed
her.
C.She
was
delighted
to
have
become
an
astronomer
in
spite
of
the
prejudice
on
her.
D.She
had
hard?nosed
nature
and
never
cared
about
other
people's
opinions.
答案:C 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“I
ignored
the
people
who
told
me
that
I
could
not
be
an
astronomer.”(我不在乎那些告诉我我不能成为天文学家的人。)可推知选C。
【词汇积累】 ①launch
n.
(产品的)上市;(事件的)发起 ②hard-nosed

them
1
breakfast
from
the
cafeteria.
So,
she
threw
on
a
hairnet,
some
2
and
an
apron,
and
started
serving
the
kids
herself.
“When

is
just
going
to
do
it,”
Lopez

the
kids
said,
‘Hey,
I
know
you.’
and
I
said,
‘Yes,
I'm

Despite
being
the
principal,
Lopez
did
not
feel
she
was
too
7
on
the
totem
pole
(图腾柱)
to
serve
food.
In
fact,
she
felt
it
was
her
duty
to
put
on
a
hairnet
and

.
“The
kids
loved
it.
They
were
9
,
‘Ms
Lopez,
I
didn't
know
you
were
a
cafeteria
lady,
too.’
And
so
I
kept
telling
them,
‘You
know,
principals
do
whatever
it
takes,’”
Lopez
said.
“It
10
to
the
teachers,
and
that's
when
they
started
taking

(2020·甘肃省会宁一中高三第一次月考)
Four
Habits
to
Help
You
Succeed
Nobody
would
like
to
experience
failure.
We
all
want
to
succeed.
For
those
who
have
tried
and
failed,
success
seems
difficult
to
understand.
1
?Know
your
values.
Finding
your
values
is
in
line
with
creating
motivation.
2
Pick
a
handful
of
things
and
write
them
down.
Remind
yourself
of
your
values
every
day
and
reflect
on
whether
you
are
honoring
those
values
through
your
work.
?
3
Choose
one
goal
to
start
something
large
enough
that
will
give
you
a
sense
of
achievement,
while
adjusting
well
to
your
values.
If
you
want
to
achieve
your
goal,
focus
is
the
key
here.
4
If
you
perform
many
tasks
at
a
time,
you
might
never
finish
your
projects
because
they
will
take
far
too
long.
?Set
a
time
for
success.
Set
a
date
for
success.
Know
when
you
hope
to
realize
your
goal.
5
By
setting
a
time
limit,
you
are
making
the
process
realistic.
?Don't
give
up
because
of
failure.
Failure
can't
be
avoided
when
you
take
risks.
By
its
very
definition,
the
desire
to
succeed
means
you
are
risking
failure.
Many
people
tend
to
give
up
far
too
early.
Don't
fall
into
this
trap!
Use
failure.
Treat
it
as
a
good
thing,
and
go
on.
A.Make
the
right
decision.
B.Pick
a
goal
and
focus
on
it.
C.The
more
focused
you
are
on
one
goal,
the
higher
chance
you
have
of
success.
D.Keep
it
realistic,
while
not
giving
yourself
too
much
time.
E.I
have
made
a
list
of
four
habits
to
help
you
set
goals
and
realize
them.
F.Sit
and
reflect
on
what
you
value
most.
G.Push
yourself
to
be
courageous,
and
take
that
next
step.

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。
When
people
introduce
themselves,
I
always
hear
them
say
“I'm
just
a
housewife.”
I
don't
understand
why
their
introduction
is
always
filled
with
regret
and
self-pity.
Is
it
really
a
crime
to
be
a
housewife?
Is
it
really
embarrassing
when
you
choose
not
to
work
outside
and
instead
choose
to
work
in
your
home?
How
could
you
be
“just
a
housewife”
when
the
basic
social
unit
of
society
depends
on
you
and
your
service?
A
housewife
works
for
the
longest
hours,
supporting
your
husband,
child
studies,
caring
for
elders,
managing
finances,
paying
bills,
grocery
shopping,
cooking
according
to
individual
taste,
cleaning,
etc.
A
housewife
could
be
anyone:
daughter,
wife,
mother,
teacher,
financial
advisor,
fashion
designer
and
nurse,
gardener,
driver,
cook
and
so
on.
Don't
think
you
are
not
being
paid
for
it.
You
get
the
reward
that
no
money
can
offer—the
love
and
affection
of
your
family,
their
trust
in
you,
a
happy
home
and
your
own
satisfaction.
It
is
you
who
choose
to
be
in
this
occupation,
willingly
or
for
any
other
reason.
After
a
busy
day,
all
wait
to
return
to
the
comfortable
home
set
by
you.
They
know
you
will
be
there
to
absorb
all
their
stress
and
tiredness
and
relax
them.
Would
the
life
have
been
the
same?
Have
you
been
working
outside
to
earn
some
money?
Would
you
along
with
your
family
have
been
able
to
buy
all
the
content
in
life
that
you
are
enjoying
now
with
that
money?
Respect
yourself
for
what
you
are.
Introduce
yourself
to
the
world
with
the
same
dignity
(尊严).
The
world
understands
the
importance
of
your
job;
it's
time
to
make
them
accept
it.
Introduce
yourself
with
pride
and
with
twinkle
in
your
eyes
“I
am
a
housewife”.
Kick
that
“just”
out.

A
Famous
Chinese
agricultural
scientist
Yuan
Longping
and
his
research
team's
expe-riment
of
planting
saltwater?tolerant
rice
in
desert
areas
of
Dubai
in
the
United
Arab
Emirates
proved
to
be
a
success,
with
one
type
of
rice
producing
more
than
7.5
tons
per
hectare,
Xinhua
reported.
Saltwater?tolerant
rice
is
designed
to
grow
in
tidal
flats
or
other
areas
with
heavy
salt
content.
It
was
the
world's
first
successful
case
of
planting
rice
in
a
tropical
desert
area,
standing
as
China's
contribution
to
improving
the
ability
of
people
in
desert
areas
to
be
self?sufficient
in
main
foods,
a
move
that
can
protect
global
food
security
and
improve
the
desert
ecological
environment.
The
technology
of
saltwater?tolerant
rice
plays
a
key
role
in
the
success
as
the
natural
environment
of
the
Dubai
desert
is
terrible
for
rice
growth.
The
daytime
temperatures
could
be
as
high
as
over
50
℃,
and
nighttime
temperatures
could
drop
by
30
℃.
Humidity
stays
below
20
percent
and
there
are
sandstorms
from
time
to
time.
The
biggest
challenge
is
the
desert
soil,
which
is
low
in
organic
matter
and
unable
to
keep
soil
moisture
as
it
is
totally
sand.
To
make
it
worse,
sea
water
remains
just
7.5
meters
below
the
soil,
which
makes
it
easy
to
be
full
of
salt.
With
this
success,
the
center
and
the
private
investment
office
of
the
ruler
of
the
Emirate
of
Dubai
plan
to
set
up
a
100?hectare
experimental
farmland
in
Dubai,
to
test
the
production
costs
and
cultivation
techniques
of
the
saltwater?tolerant
rice
and
prepare
for
promotion.
The
two
parties
will
construct
a
100?hectare
standard
farmland
in
2019
and
speed
up
rice
planting
in
2020.
篇章导读:本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了中国著名农业科学家袁隆平和他的研究团队在阿联酋迪拜沙漠地区成功种植耐盐水水稻。
1.What
can
we
infer
from
the
second
paragraph?
A.The
tropical
desert
areas
have
done
well
in
being
self?sufficient.
B.Chinese
team
play
a
great
role
in
planting
saltwater?tolerant
rice
in
desert
areas.
C.Planting
saltwater?tolerant
rice
can
be
easily
achieved
in
many
tropical
desert
areas.
D.Saltwater?tolerant
rice
is
designed
to
grow
in
areas
with
heavy
salt
content.
答案:B 细节理解题。根据第二段的内容可知,耐盐水水稻是为在滩涂或其他含盐量大的地区种植而设计的,是世界上第一个在热带沙漠地区种植水稻的成功案例,这是中国对提高沙漠地区人民自足能力的贡献。故选B。
2.What's
the
most
difficult
thing
for
rice
growth
in
Dubai
desert?
A.Its
daytime
temperature
could
be
up
to
50
℃
and
humidity
stays
below
20%.
B.It's
just
6.5
meters
above
the
sea
water
and
easy
to
be
full
of
salt.
C.Its
soil
is
short
of
organic
matter
and
hard
to
keep
soil
moisture.
D.It
is
extremely
expensive
to
conduct
experiments
in
tropical
desert
areas.
答案:C 细节理解题。根据文章第三段第四句“The
biggest
challenge
is
the
desert
soil,
which
is
low
in
organic
matter
and
unable
to
keep
soil
moisture
as
it
is
totally
sand.”可知,最大的挑战是沙漠土壤,它有机质含量低,不能保持土壤水分,因为它完全是沙子。故选C。
3.What
can
we
learn
about
the
saltwater-tolerant
rice
according
to
the
passage?
A.The
natural
environment
is
the
key
factor
of
the
success
of
the
experiment.
B.Dubai
still
has
a
lot
to
do
before
the
saltwater?tolerant
rice
benefits
other
areas.
C.No
evaluation
will
be
performed
again
as
the
experiment
has
been
successful.
D.The
ruler
of
the
Emirate
of
Dubai
thinks
little
of
the
result
of
the
experiment.
答案:B 推理判断题。根据最后一段首句可知,随着这一成功,该中心和迪拜的私人投资办公室计划在迪拜建立一个100公顷的试验田,以测试耐盐水水稻的生产成本和种植技术,并为进一步推广做准备。由此可推知,在使耐盐水水稻能造福于其他地区之前,迪拜还有很多需要做的。故选B。
4.What's
the
passage

B
(2019·辽宁省沈阳市东北育才学校五模)An
international
group
of
coffee
experts
has
considered
Ethiopia's
coffee
as
the
best
in
the
world.
Coffee
is
a
top
export
of
the
country.
But
at
home,
it
is
seen
as
national
pride.
Ethiopians
feel
good
about
their
coffee,
and
enjoying
a
drink
with
friends
is
a
long
tradition.
International
coffee
experts
travel
the
world
to
find
the
best
coffee.
They
keep
returning
to
Ethiopia.
Some
people
say
the
climate
produces
quality
beans.
Morton
Wenner
is
a
coffee
importer.
He
said,
“Ethiopia
has
different
ancient
types
of
coffee.
They
are
planted
in
places
with
perfect
soil,
perfect
altitude,
and
climates
that
are
really
suitable
for
coffee
processing,
such
as
drying
and
things
like
that.”
Finding
the
best
quality
beans
is
often
an
issue
of
taste.
The
process
is
known
as
cupping—tasting
and
comparing
coffee
from
different
roasted
beans,
grading
and
then
pricing
them.
But
before
international
experts
come
to
taste,
coffee
beans
are
studied
in
small
coffee
laboratories.
Helen
Assefa,
a
lab
technician,
describes
the
process,
“When
the
coffee
comes
to
the
lab,
we
assess
its
quality
first
by
recording
the
details.
Then
we
weigh
the
wetness
level
and
screen
the
beans
for
analysis.
After
that
we
polish
the
coffee
beans
and
taste
the
samples.
At
the
end
we
check
for
imperfect
beans.”
Ethiopia
is
making
big
profits
on
its
coffee
reputation
by
exporting
coffee
to
more
than
120
countries.
The
country
has
an
export
income
of
more
than
$840
million
a
year.
But
not
all
the
best
coffee
leaves
Ethiopia.
Forty
percent
of
the
coffee
grown
in
the
country
stays
there.
It
remains
an
important
part
of
everyday
life
at
work,
at
home
and
at
ceremonies
just
to
celebrate
that
special
cup.
篇章导读:本文是一篇科普类说明文。文章主要介绍了专家是如何确定埃塞俄比亚的咖啡是最佳的。

C
(2020·辽宁省五校协作体高三上学期联合模拟考试)In
a
long-sleeved
shirt
and
jeans,
Dieudonne
Twahirwa
looks
nothing
like
the
traditional
African
farmer.
The
30-year-old
owner
of
Gashora
Farm
knows
what
a
difference
that
makes.
“You
need
more
role
models,”
he
said,
standing
among
knee-high
rows
of
chilli
(辣椒)
plants.
“If
you
have
young
farmers,
they
have
land
and
they
drive
to
the
farm,
others
may
think,
‘Why
can't
I
do
that?’”
Mr
Twahirwa,
a
university
graduate,
bought
a
friend's
tomato
farm
six
years
ago
for
$150.
He
made
$1,500
back
in
two
months.
“You
have
to
link
farming
with
entrepreneurship
and
real
numbers,”
he
said.
Many
young
Africans
are
abandoning
areas
in
the
countryside,
choosing
not
to
work
hard
for
a
long
time
in
the
fields—a
job
made
tougher
by
climate
change.
But
Twahirwa
is
one
of
the
growing
band
of
successful
farmers
working
to
make
agriculture's
image
on
the
continent
more
attractive.
Some
1,000
farmers
now
produce
chillies
for
him.
He
is
starting
a
fourth
farm
of
his
own,
and
exports
fresh
and
dried
chillies
and
oil
to
Britain,
the
United
States,
India,
and
Kenya.
Africa
has
the
world's
youngest
population
and
65
percent
of
its
uncultivated
arable
land
(耕地后备资源).
Yet
accessing
land
and
loans
is
difficult,
and
African
producti-vity
is
low
with
crop
yields
just
56
percent
of
the
international
average.
“Agriculture
is
mainly
associated
with
suffering
and
no
young
person
wants
to
suffer,”
said
Tamara
Kaunda.
She
believes
African
agriculture
needs
a
change
to
get
rid
of
its
old-fashioned
image
of
very
hard
and
tiring
work
with
a
hoe.
“Show
young
people
tractors,
green
fields,
nice
irrigation
systems
and
smartphones,”
she
said.
Getting
young
people
involved
in
agriculture
does
not
mean
they
have
to
work
on
a
farm.
For
example,
in
coffee
production,
the
beans
go
from
the
farm
to
the
washing
station,
then
to
be
separated
from
the
husks
(外壳).
篇章导读:本文是一篇说明文。非洲有世界上最年轻的人群与大量的耕地后备资源,但是由于气候与农业技术的落后,很多年轻人都不愿意从事农业。Dieudonne
Twahirwa则为非洲青年树立了榜样。
9.What
does
“Why
can't
I
do
that?”
in
Paragraph
2
mean?
A.Why
can't
I
drive
to
the
farm?
B.Why
can't
they
farm?
C.They
follow
the
example
of
those
farmers.
D.They
bought
a
friend's
tomato
farm.
答案:C 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“If
you
have
young
farmers,
they
have
land
and
they
drive
to
the
farm,
others
may
think,
‘Why
can't
I
do
that?’”可知,此处表示如果你有年轻的农民,他们有土地,而且开车去农场,其他人可能会想,为什么“我”不能那样做?该句意在表明其他人认为他们可以效仿这些农民的做法。故选C。
10.What
makes
it
harder
for
farmers
to
work?
A.Poor
land.
B.Climate.
C.Low
income.
D.Long
working
hours.
答案:B 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“a
job
made
tougher
by
climate
change”可知,在非洲,让农民的劳动难度更大的原因在于气候变化。故选B。
11.What
can
we
learn
about
Twahirwa
according
to
Paragraph
5?
A.He
made
a
fortune
by
growing
chillies.
B.His
chillies
are
superb
in
the
world.
C.Farmers
working
for
him
live
a
simple
life.
D.The
locals
aren't
willing
to
buy
his
chillies.
答案:A 推理判断题。根据第五段中的“Some
1,000
farmers
now
produce
chillies
for
him.
He
is
starting
a
fourth
farm
of
his
own”可推知,Twahirwa通过种植红辣椒赚了很多钱。故选A。
12.When
it
comes
to
agriculture
in
Africa,
what
do
people
think
about
it?
A.Loans
are
difficult.
B.Most
land
is
uncultivated.
C.Crop
yields
are
rather
low.
D.Farming
methods
are
out
of
date.
答案:D 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的“African
agriculture
needs
a
change
to
get
rid
of
its
old-fashioned
image
of
very
hard
and
tiring
work
with
a
hoe”可知,非洲农业需要改变,以摆脱其传统的形象:使用锄头的非常辛苦和累人的工作。由此可推知,当谈及非洲的农业时,人们想到的是落后的耕作方法。故选D。
【词汇积累】 ①productivity
n.
生产率;生产效率 ②yield
n.
产量;产出;利润 ③irrigation
n.
灌溉 ④get
rid
of
摆脱,除去
【长难句分析】 Getting
young
people
involved
in
agriculture
does
not
mean
they
have
to
work
on
a
farm.
让年轻人参与农业并不意味着他们必须在田地工作。
分析:此句是复合句。Getting
young
people
involved
in
agriculture是动名词短语作主语,mean后跟一个省略了that的宾语从句。

篇章导读:本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章讲述了作者在回家的路上遇到了交通阻塞,救护车也难以通行,由此作者想到做人不能太自私。
1.vehicles 考查名词。该句为倒装句,句子主语为an
ambulance,所以谓语动词用单数的was,
was之前不是主语,根据among判断应填复数形式,故用vehicles。
2.to
get 考查非谓语动词。try
to
do
sth.
“努力做某事”,
所以应填不定式形式作宾语,故填to
get。
3.which 考查定语从句的引导词。根据句子结构判断,此处应填which引导非限制性定语从句,并在从句中作主语,which指代的是前面句子的内容。故填which。
4.selfish 考查词性转换。此处需要形容词作定语修饰people,结合句意判断应填selfish,表示“自私的”。
5.losing 考查非谓语动词。risk
doing
sth.
“冒做某事的风险”,所以应填动名词形式作宾语。
6.more 考查比较级。根据后面的than判断,此处应用比较级形式,表示“多为别人着想”。
7.be
avoided 考查动词的语态。avoid
“避免”,与主语mistakes为动宾关系,所以应填被动语态形式。
8.it 考查代词。work
wonders
“创造奇迹;取得惊人成就”。根据上下文判断,此处指的是“学会表现出善良”
会创造奇迹,所以应填it,代替learn
to
show
our
kindness作主语。
9.but 考查固定句型。此处为“not
...
but
...”句型,表示“不是……而是……”。
10.strengthen 考查词性转换。此处需要动词作谓语,所以应变为strengthen表示“加强;强化”。

篇章导读:本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了英国和美国的风俗习惯。
1.C 由“We

that

But
in
fact,
1
,
as
BBC
did
in
a
recent
story
called
8
Situations
When
Britons
Behave
Differently
From
Americans.”可知,众所周知,英国与美国因为使用同一种语言而有诸多相似之处。近日,BBC就刊登了一篇文章,题为“八种情境:英美人的不同表现”。所以设空处既要与上文为转折关系,又要承接下文。故C选项“探寻英美文化间的差异更加有趣”切题。故选C项。
2.E 由“chances
are
that
the
victim
will
say
‘sorry’
before
the
other
can
make
his
or
her
own
apology”可知,他们则很可能会在撞人者开口道歉之前先说“对不起”。所以设空处是条件状语从句,说明如果被撞的碰巧是英国人,他们则很可能会在撞人者开口道歉之前先说“对不起”。故E选项“如果被撞的碰巧是英国人”切题。故选E项。
3.A'由“Britons
don't
all
change
into

like
what
you
may
have
seen
in
popular
TV

Americans,
however,

4.F 由“When
dining

a
restaurant,
4
.
They
think
the
food
is
somehow
‘tainted’
once
they've
poked
at
it
with
a
knife
and
fork.”可知,外出就餐时,因为在他们看来食物一旦被刀叉“染指”后便被“玷污”了。所以设空处要补充出主句,也要承接下文。故F选项“英国人不会将剩饭剩菜打包带走”切题。故选F项。
5.D 英国人在告诉司机目的地之后就会秉承全程零交流的原则,由“Even
if
they're
being
taken
in
a
roundabout
way”可知,此处指甚至在看见司机绕路时英国人的表现会怎样。故D选项“他们也会一言不发”切题。故选D项。

A
man
once
said
how
useless
it
was
to
put
advertisements
in
the
newspapers.
“Last
week,”
he
said,
“my
umbrella
was
stolen
from
a
London
church.
As
it
was
a
present,
I
spent
twice
its
worth
on
advertising,
but
did
not
get
it
back.”
“How
did
you
write
your
advertisement?”
asked
one
of
his
listeners,
a
businessman.
“Here
it
is,”
said
the
man,
taking
out
of
his
pocket
a
slip
cut
from
a
newspaper.
The
other
man
took
it
and
read,
“Lost
from
the
City
Church
last
Sunday
evening,
a
black
silk
umbrella.
The
gentleman
who
finds
it
will
receive
ten
shillings
on
leaving
it
at
No.10
Broad
Street.”
“Now,”
said
the
businessman,
“I
often
advertise,
and
find
that
it
pays
me
well.
But
the
way
in
which
an
advertisement
is
expressed
is
of
extreme
importance.
Let's
try
for
your
umbrella
again,
and
if
it
fails,
I
will
buy
you
a
new
one.”
The
man
then
took
a
slip
of
paper
out
of
his
pocket
and
wrote:
“If
the
man
who
was
seen
to
take
an
umbrella
from
the
City
Church
last
Sunday
evening
does
not
want
to
get
into
trouble,
he
will
return
the
umbrella
to
No.10
Broad
Street.
He
is
well
known.”
This
appeared
in
the
paper,
and
on
the
following
morning,
In
the
view
of
the
businessman,
the
man
who
lost
the
umbrella
was
honest
enough
to
write
his
advertisement.

[精彩范文]
This
appeared
in
the
paper,
and
on
the
following
morning,
the
man
was
astonished
when
he
opened
the
front
door.
In
the
doorway
lay
at
least
twelve
umbrellas
of
all
sizes
and
colours
that
had
been
thrown
in,
and
his
own
was
among
them.
Many
of
them
had
notes
fastened
to
them
saying
that
they
had
been
taken
just
by
mistake,
and
begging
the
loser
not
to
say
anything
about
the
matter.
In
the
view
of
the
businessman,
the
man
who
lost
the
umbrella
was
honest
enough
to
write
his
advertisement.
“The
gentleman
who
finds
it
will
receive
ten
shillings
on
leaving
it
at
No.10
Broad
Street.”
Ten
shillings
meant
almost
nothing
and
the
finder
of
the
umbrella
was
at
the
risk
of
being
recognised.
No
wonder
it
was
useless
to
put
such
an
advertisement
in
the
newspapers.
He
believed
that
the
way
an
advertisement
was
expressed
was
very
important.

A
(2019·安徽师大附中高三第一学期期中考试)Last
week
I
was
riding
my
special
motorbike
and
then
stopped
at
a
convenience
store.
As
I
was
getting
my
wheelchair
off
the
back,
a
man
watched
me
from
his
car
and
I
noticed
a
wheelchair
in
his
back
seat.
We
spoke
for
a
moment
and
I
asked
him
about
the
wheelchair.
He
answered
that
it
was
for
his
daughter.
“Well,
do
you
think
she
would
like
to
go
for
a
ride
on
my
motorbike
with
me?”
I
asked.
He
seemed
shocked
that
a
total
stranger
would
ask
him
this.
He
thought
about
it
for
a
second
and
said,
“OK,
as
long
as
I
can
follow
you.”
He
introduced
me
to
Amy
and
he
sat
her
on
my
back
seat.
Her
father
followed
me
for
a
few
miles
and
she
talked
non?stop
about
what
she
wanted
for
Christmas.
As
we
came
back
to
the
convenience
store,
she
said,
“This
ride
is
the
best
Christmas
present
I
could
ever
receive.
I
have
been
in
a
wheelchair
my
whole
life
and
didn't
know
I
could
do
this.”
I
told
her
about
some
of
the
other
things
I
do
(ski,
travel
the
world
by
myself,
etc.).
As
her
father
was
taking
her
off
my
bike,
she
turned
to
him
and
said,
“Oh
Daddy,
I'm
going
to
be
OK.
Mr
Bryant
does
all
kinds
of
things,
and
I
will
too.”
Her
father
turned
away
as
a
tear
of
joy
rolled
down
his
cheek.
He
hugged
me
and
said,
“I
was
sitting
here
praying
for
a
gift
for
Amy
that
would
encourage
her.
She
often
felt
that
her
life
was
dull
compared
to
other
children.
God
answered
my
prayer
just
now.
Now
I
pray
that
God
will
bless
you
for
your
gift
to
Amy
today.”
I
believed
what
he
said.
Being
kind
and
thoughtful
to
others,
we
can
be
an
answer
to
prayer.

(2020·陕西省百校联盟TOP20联考)Body
language
varies
significantly
across
cultures.
But
what
remains
consistent
across
all
known
cultures
are
microexpressions.
Microexpressions
occur
in
everyone
in
a
second,
often
without
their
knowledge.
These
facial
expressions
including
surprise,
anger,
fear,
disgust,
happiness,
and
so
on
can
reveal
our
true
feelings
about
another
person
or
situation.
People
might
try
to
hide
or
obscure
(模糊)
them
in
different
ways
informed
by
culture,
but
to
a
practiced
reader
the
true
emotions
are
always
visible.
In
the
Philippines,
showing
both
positive
and
negative
emotion
is
a
sign
of
openness
and
honesty.
But
visible
negative
emotion
is
seen
as
rude
or
aggressive
while
expressing
too
much
positive
feeling
is
considered
embarrassing
in
Japan.
However,
when
we
evaluate
people
from
both
countries
for
their
microexpressions,
we
find
that
they
actually
experience
emotions
at
more
or
less
the
same
level
of
frequency.
A
few
years
ago,
my
husband
and
I
traveled
to
Qatar
to
lead
a
body
language
discussion
for
200
HR
(人力资源)
leaders.
Women's
bodies
were
completely
covered,
so
we
couldn't
see
the
posture
or
gestures.
When
standing
on
stage,
all
the
men
looked
only
at
my
husband
and
all
the
women
merely
at
me.
Luckily,
we
knew
from
the
videos
we'd
previously
made
of
Qataris
that
the
flashes
of
emotion
in
their
faces
reflected
the
same
feelings
we
might
find
from
audience
members
anywhere
else
in
the
world.
And
so
we
could
adjust
what
we
want
to
show
accordingly,
and
felt
just
as
comfortable
as
we
would
have
at
home.
To
recognize
and
understand
miroexpressions,
you
should
first
study
the
common
microexpressions
to
know
the
typical
feature
of
each.
And
then
educate
yourself
on
the
local
body
language—including
masking
techniques
before
visiting
or
interacting
with
another
culture.
Third,
when
you're
in
the
moment,
pay
much
more
attention.
You
can't
interpret
microexpressions
if
you
don't
notice
them.
Fourth,
listen
to
your
intuition
(直觉).
When
you
notice
a
tiny
facial
movement,
ask
yourself,
“What
could
that
mean?”
Besides,
you
might
also
try
to
imitate
the
movement.
篇章导读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要解释微表情的概念、作用以及掌握微表情的一些步骤。
5.What
is
special
about
microexpressions?
A.They
are
brief
and
unaware.
B.They
are
hidden
and
unusual.
C.They
are
natural
but
unnecessary.
D.They
are
flexible
but
unavailable.
答案:A 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Microexpressions
occur
in
everyone
in
a
second,
often
without
their
knowledge.”可知,微表情是不知情的情况下,在一秒钟内发生在每一个人身上,故选A项。
6.What
is
most
useful
for
the
body
language
discussion
according
to
the
author?
A.Getting
well
prepared.
B.Being
well
organized.
C.Reacting
with
others
actively.
D.Using
body
language
accordingly.
答案:A 推理判断题。根据第三段作者列举的例子中的“Luckily,
we
knew
from
the
videos
we'd
previously
made
of
Qataris
that
the
flashes
of
emotion
in
their
faces
reflected
the
same

we
might
find
from
audience
members
anywhere
else
in
the
world.
And
so
we
could
adjust
what
we
want
to
show
accordingly”可知,作者从之前拍摄的卡塔尔人的视频中知道他们脸上闪现的情绪反映什么,从而作出调整,由此可知作者看重的是事先做好准备,故选A项。
7.Which
stage
will
you
be
in
if
you
keep
your
focus
on
others'
face?
A.Step
One.
B.Step
Two.
C.Step
Three.
D.Step
Four.
答案:C 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Third,
...
You
can't
interpret
microexpressions
if
you
don't
notice
them.”可知,如果你不注意它们,你就不能解读微表情,故选C项。
8.What
is
the
best
title
of
the
passage?
A.Developing
Greater
Social
Skills
B.Getting
Better
at
Reading
People
C.Behaving
More
Differently
in
Public
D.Learning
More
about
Microexpressions
答案:D 标题判断题。分析文章结构可知,第一段主要说明微表情的含义,第二段进一步说明微表情的可见性,第三段通过例子说明读懂微表情的作用,最后一段主要给出几步识别和理解微表情的方法,由此可知本文主要让读者更好地了解微表情。

C
(2019·汉中期末)There
are
various
ways
to
read
body
language
so
that
you
can
understand
how
someone
is
feeling.
Reading
emotional
clues
is
one
of
them.
Crying
is
considered
to
be
caused
by
an
explosion
of
emotion
in
most
cultures.
Oftentimes
crying
is
considered
a
sign
of
sadness,
but
crying
can
also
be
an
expression
of
happiness.
Crying
can
also
come
about
through
laughter
and
humor.
Thus,
when
judging
crying,
you'll
need
to
look
for
other
signs
to
determine
the
meaning
of
the
crying.
Crying
can
also
be
forced
in
order
to
gain
sympathy
or
to
cheat
others.
This
practice
is
known
as
“crocodile
tears”,
an
expression
that
draws
on
the
wrong
idea
that
crocodiles
“cry”
when
catching
prey.
Signs
of
threat
include
v?shaped
eye
brows,
wide
eyes,
and
an
open
or
down?turned
mouth.
In
a
similar
way,
arms
tightly
crossed
over
the
other
is
a
common
sign
that
the
person
is
angry
and
is
closing
himself
off
to
you.
When
people
show
anxiety,
they
display
increased
facial
movements,
and
their
mouth
stretches
into
a
thin
line.
Individuals
who
are
anxious
may
also
play
with
their
hands,
unable
to
keep
them
in
one
spot.
Embarrassment
can
be
expressed
by
turning
the
eyes
or
shifting
them
away.
If
someone
looks
down
at
the
floor
a
lot,
they
are
probably
shy,
afraid,
or
embarrassed.
There
are
also
some
signs
of
pride.
People
show
pride
by
displaying
a
small
smile,
holding
their
head
backward,
and
putting
their
hands
on
their
hips.

Years

Ⅲ.七选五
(2020·山西省祁县中学高三月考)Curling
(冰壶)
is
a
winter
sport
played
on
ice.
Therefore,
it's
most
popular
in
northern
countries
like
Canada.
Curling
is
played
in
the
USA
by
about
15,000
people.
1
Scottish
winters
were
long
and
there
were
forms
of
entertainment.
So
people
began
making
a
sport
out
of
sliding
heavy
stones
on
the
frozen
lakes.
The
game
spread,
and
in
the
1700s
curling
clubs
formed.
Then
Scottish
soldiers
brought
it
to
North
America.
2
Men,
women,
and
children
often
compete
on
the
same
team,
if
they
can
slide
a
forty?pound
stone
down
the
ice!
Both
teams
slide
their
stones
toward
the
same
goal.After
all
16
stones
have
been
cast,
the
team
whose
stone
has
slid
closest
to
the
goal
gets
one
point.
3
The
ice
is
so
smooth
and
the
stone
is
so
heavy
that
even
the
smallest
misjudgment
in
a
throw
can
make
the
stone
slide
much
too
far
or
stop
too
suddenly.
4
Water
helps
the
stone
slide,
but
it
can
also
change
the
stone's
path.
In
curling,
a
broom
is
part
of
each
player's
equipment.
A
good
curler
must
know
how
much
force
to
use.
The
player
must
know
the
exact
conditions
of
the
ice
on
the
court.
5
That
may
explain
why
the
international
Olympic
Committee
decided
to
make
curling
an
Olympic
sport
in
1998.
A.Players
compete
on
the
court.
B.Then
the
play
begins
in
the
other
direction.
C.Curling
is
played
by
teams
of
four
people.
D.In
other
words,
a
good
curler
must
be
a
fine
athlete.
E.The
rules
are
easy
to
learn,
but
playing
the
game
is
hard.
F.The
melting
of
the
ice
makes
things
tough
for
the
curlers.
G.Curling
probably
began
in
Scotland
in
the
1500s
or
earlier.
篇章导读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一项奥林匹克运动项目——冰壶。
1.G 根据后文的“Scottish
winters
were
long
and
there
were
forms
of
entertainment.
So
people
began
making
a
sport
out
of
sliding
heavy
stones
on
the
frozen
lakes.”可推知,此处是概述冰壶的历史渊源,所以G项“冰壶运动可能起源于16世纪或更早的苏格兰。”符合语境。故选G。
2.C 根据本段的整体内容可知,本段主要讲的是冰壶的规则,所以C项“冰壶比赛由四人组成的队伍进行。”符合语境。故选C。
3.E 前文讲的是冰壶的规则,本段讲的是对冰壶的掌控并非易事,所以E项“冰壶的规则学起来容易,但操作起来困难。”来承上启下。故选E。
4.F 根据后文“Water
helps
the
stone
slide,
but
it
can
also
change
the
stone's
path.”可推知,由于摩擦可能会造成场地的冰融化,从而增加操作冰壶的难度。故选F。
5.D 根据下文“That
may
explain
why
the
international
Olympic
Committee
decided
to
make
curling
an
Olympic
sport
in
1998.”(这也许可以解释为什么国际奥委会在1998年决定将冰壶运动列为奥运会项目。)可推知,一个好的冰壶球员必须是一个好的运动员。故选
D。
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。
A
trip
to
a
water
park
can
be
a
fun
adventure
for
families,
couples
or
a
group
of
friends.
Whether
you
prefer
relaxing
in
a
tube
on
a
lazy
river
or
riding
a
water
roller
coaster,
a
trip
to
one
of
the
nation's
water
parks
offers
something
exciting
for
everyone.
However,
the
fun
does
not
come
without
risks.
People
who
plan
to
go
to
a
water
park
should
be
careful
enough
to
follow
rules
to
avoid
these
risks.
Drowning
is
one
of
the
greatest
dangers
in
water
parks,
especially
for
young
children.
The
ability
to
swim
is
the
most
important
skill
in
a
water
park.
Before
you
go
to
a
water
park,
make
sure
that
all
the
people
know
how
to
swim
well.
Do
not
swim
in
water
that
does
not
have
a
lifeguard
on
the
scene.
Many
parks
provide
life
jackets
for
free—do
prepare
some
for
your
group
in
case
some
people
need
them.
People
usually
choose
to
go
to
water
parks
on
clear
sunny
days,
which
means
that
they
are
easy
to
get
burnt
in
the
sun,
or
even
get
heatstroke
(中暑).
Most
of
the
water
parks
are
open
areas
with
little
shelter
or
few
buildings
to
block
the
sun,
so
it
can
be
dangerous
for
people
who
have
fair
and
sensitive
skin
to
spend
a
whole
day
there.
Be
sure
to
wear
a
hat
and
a
shirt
with
sleeves
over
your
bathing
suit
while
you
are
walking
around.
In
rare
cases,
water
park
guests
may
be
subjected
to
contaminated
(受污染的)
water.
Some
illnesses
are
easily
spread
in
the
instance.
The
most
common
cause
of
water
contamination
is
small
children
who
are
not
old
enough
to
go
to
the
toilet.
Water
parks
have
been
trying
their
best
to
avoid
the
spread
of
diseases.
However,
contamination
is
still
possible.
Guests
can
protect
themselves
by
trying
not
to
swallow
any
water
and
washing
their
hands
after
playing
with
shallow
and
still
water.
