18．（2019·天津）阅读理解
I must have always known reading was very
important because the first memories I have as a child deal with books. There
was not one night that I don't remember mom reading me a storybook by my
bedside. I was extremely inspired by the elegant way the words sounded.
I always wanted to know what my mom was
reading. Hearing mom say," I can't believe what's printed in the newspaper
this morning," made me want to grab it out of her hands and read it
myself. I wanted to be like my mom and know all of the things she knew. So I
carried around a book, and each night, just to be like her, I would pretend to
be reading.
This is how everyone learned to read. We
would start off with sentences, then paragraphs, and then stories. It seemed an
unending journey, but even as a six-year-old girl I realized that knowing how
to read could open many doors. When mom said," The C-A-N-D-Y is hidden on
the top shelf," I knew where the candy was. My progress in reading raised
my curiosity, and I wanted to know everything. I often found myself telling my
mom to drive more slowly, so that I could read all of the road signs we passed.
Most of my reading through primary, middle
and high school was factual reading. I read for knowledge, and to make A's on
my tests. Occasionally, I would read a novel that was assigned, but I didn't
enjoy this type of reading. I liked facts, things that are concrete. I thought
anything abstract left too much room for argument.
Yet, now that I'm growing and the world I
once knew as being so simple is becoming more complex, I find myself needing a
way to escape. By opening a novel, I can leave behind my burdens and enter into
a wonderful and mysterious world where I am now a new character. In these
worlds I can become anyone. I don't have to write down what happened or what
technique the author was using when he or she wrote this. I just read to relax.
We're taught to read because it's necessary
for much of human understanding. Reading is a vital part of my life. Reading
satisfies my desire to keep learning. And I've found that the possibilities
that lie within books are limitless.
（1）Why did the author want to grab the newspaper out of mom's hands？
A．She wanted mom to read the news to her.
B．She was anxious to know what had happened.
C．She couldn't wait to tear the newspaper apart.
D．She couldn't help but stop mom from reading.
（2）According to Paragraph 3, the author's reading of road signs indicates___________.
A．her unique way to locate herself
B．her eagerness to develop her reading ability
C．her effort to remind mom to obey traffic rules
D．her growing desire to know the world around her.
（3）What was the author's view on factual reading
A．It would help her update test-taking skills.
B．It would allow much room for free thinking.
C．It would provide true and objective information.
D．It would help shape a realistic and serious attitude to life.
（4）The author takes novel reading as a way to___________.
A．explore a fantasy land B．develop a passion for leaning
C．learn about the adult community D．get away from a confusing world
（5）What could be the best title for the passage？
A．The Magic of Reading B．The Pleasure of Reading
C．Growing Up with Reading D．Reading Makes a Full Man
19．（2019·天津）阅读理解
How does an ecosystem（生态系统）work What makes the populations of different species the way they
are Why are there so many flies and so few wolves To find an answer, scientists
have built mathematical models of food webs, noting who eats whom and how much
each one eats.
With such models, scientists have found out
some key principles operating in food webs. Most food webs, for instance, consist
of many weak links rather than a few strong ones. When a predator（掠食动物）always eats huge numbers of a single prey（猎物）, the two species are strongly linked; when a predator lives on
various species, they are weakly linked. Food webs may be dominated by many
weak links because that arrangement is more stable over the long term. If a
predator can eat several species, it can survive the extinction（灭绝）of one of them. And if a predator can move on to another species
that is easier to find when a prey species becomes rare, the switch allows the
original prey to recover. The weak links may thus keep species from driving one
another to extinction.
Mathematical models have also revealed that food webs may be unstable, where small changes of top predators can lead to big effects throughout entire ecosystems. In the 1960s, scientists proposed that predators at the top of a food web had a surprising amount of control over the size of populations of other species—including species they did not directly attack.
And unplanned human activities have proved
the idea of top-down control by top predators to be true. In the ocean, we
fished for top predators such as cod on an industrial scale, while on land, we
killed off large predators such as wolves. These actions have greatly affected
the ecological balance.
Scientists have built an early-warning
system based on mathematical models. Ideally, the system would tell us when to
adapt human activities that are pushing an ecosystem toward a breakdown or
would even allow us to pull an ecosystem back from the borderline. Prevention
is key, scientists says because once ecosystems pass their tipping point（临界点）, it is remarkably difficult for them to return.
（1）What have scientists discovered with the help of mathematical models of food webs？
A．The living habits of species in food webs.
B．The rules governing food webs of the ecosystems.
C．The approaches to studying the species in the ecosystems.
D．The differences between weak and strong links in food webs.
（2）A strong link is found between two species when a predator______.
A．has a wide food choice B．can easily find new prey
C．sticks to one prey species D．can quickly move to another place
（3）What will happen if the populations of top predators in a food web greatly decline？
A．The prey species they directly attack will die out.
B．The species they indirectly attack will turn into top predators.
C．The living environment of other species will remain unchanged.
D．The populations of other species will experience unexpected changes.
（4）What conclusion can be drawn from the examples in Paragraph 4？
A．Uncontrolled human activities greatly upset ecosystems.
B．Rapid economic development threatens animal habitats.
C．Species of commercial value dominate other species.
D．Industrial activities help keep food webs stable.
（5）How does an early-warning system help us maintain the ecological balance？
A．By getting illegal practices under control.
B．By stopping us from killing large predators.
C．By bringing the broken-down ecosystems back to normal.
D．By signaling the urgent need for taking preventive action.
20．（2019·天津）阅读理解
Would you BET on the future of this man？He is 53 years old. Most of his adult life has been a losing struggle against debt and misfortune. A war injury has made his left hand stop functioning, and he has often been in prison. Driven by heaven-knows-what motives, he determines to write a book.
The book turns out to be one that has appealed to the world for more than 350 years. That former prisoner was Cervantes, and the book was Don Quixote（《堂吉诃德》）. And the story poses an interesting question: why do some people discover new vitality and creativity to the end of their days, while others go to seed long before？
We've all known people who run out of steam before they reach life's halfway mark. I'm not talking about those who fail to get to the top. We can't all get there. I'm talking about people who have stopped learning on growing because they have adopted the fixed attitudes and opinions that all too often come with passing years.
Most of us, in fact, progressively narrow the variety of our lives. We succeed in our field of specialization and then become trapped in it. Nothing surprises us. We lose our sense of wonder. But, if we are willing to learn, the opportunities are everywhere.
The things we learn in maturity seldom involve information and skills. We learn to bear with the things we can't change. We learn to avoid self-pity. We learn that however much we try to please, some people are never going to love us-an idea that troubles at first but is eventually relaxing.
With high motivation and enthusiasm, we can keep on learning. Then we will know how important it is to have meaning in our life. However, we can achieve meaning only if we have made a commitment to something larger than our own little egos（自我）, whether to loved ones, to fellow humans, to work, or to some moral concept.
Many of us equate（视……等同于）"commitment" with such "caring" occupations as teaching and nursing. But doing any ordinary job as well as one can is in itself an admirable commitment. People who work toward such excellence whether they are driving a truck, or running a store-make the world better just by being the kind of people they are. They've learned life's most valuable lesson.
（1）The passage starts with the story of Cervantes to show that_________.
A．loss of freedom stimulates one's creativity
B．age is not a barrier to achieving one's goal
C．misery inspires a man to fight against his fate
D．disability cannot stop a man's pursuit of success
（2）What does the underlined part in Paragraph 3 probably mean？
A．End one's struggle for liberty.
B．Waste one's energy taking risks.
C．Miss the opportunity to succeed.
D．Lose the interest to continue learning.
（3）What could be inferred from Paragraph 4
A．Those who dare to try often get themselves trapped.
B．Those who tend to think back can hardly go ahead.
C．Opportunity favors those with a curious mind.
D．Opportunity awaits those with a cautious mind.
（4）What does the author intend to tell us in Paragraph 5
A．A tough man can tolerate suffering.
B．A wise man can live without self-pity.
C．A man should try to satisfy people around him.
D．A man should learn suitable ways to deal with life.
（5）What is the author's purpose in writing the passage
A．To provide guidance on leading a meaningful adult life.
B．To stress the need of shouldering responsibilities at work.
C．To state the importance of generating motivation for learning.
D．To suggest a way of pursuing excellence in our lifelong career.

21．（2019·天津） 阅读短文，按照题目要求用英语回答问题。
Haze Mabry, who has worked as a school keeper for thirteen years, walks into the school building every day and empties garbage cans, wipes down bathrooms and mops wet messes in the hallways.
Last Friday, after he arrived at the school, instead of finding garbage to clean up, he found almost 800 students lining the hallways with handmade cards, blowing noisemakers and singing a full-throated happy birthday to him. It was his 80th. As he walked the long hallway, some popped out of lime to hug him. They handed him so many cards that they filled several large boxes. Touched by their enthusiastic expression of affection. Mabry thanked them all. "They're like my children," Mabry said.
On a regular day, students at the school sometimes come up to him to say they're not feeling well or other times to tell him about something that happened at break. He knows most of the kids at the school, but can't name each one. Some of them make him know them. Like Faith, who often forgets her backpack in the cafeteria, and Lucy, who just wants a hug.
"He won't brag（夸耀）on himself, but it doesn't matter what he's doing or where he is, he will always stop what he's doing to take care of a child if that child is having a bad day. If a child approaches him, he will pause to give that child his undivided attention. He's the most loved one in this building," said Lori Gilreath, a reading teacher.
Mabry works circles around all the students, cleaning up messes others don't want to touch. He doesn't expect a lot. Mabry said he hadn't planned to do much for his milestone birthday, so he was happy the students had prepared the surprise celebration.
Over the weekend, he worked through the piles of handmade cards at his house. One card from a student stood out to him. It read: "Mr. Haze, you are my sunshine.”
（1）What is Mabry's daily work as a school
keeper？（no more than 5 words）
（2）How did the students celebrate Mabry's
birthday？（no more than 15 words）
（3）What does the underlined word in Paragraph
2 probably mean？（1 word）

（1）考查形容词。A：accessible“可以获得的，可以进入的”；B：hidden“隐藏的”；C：unknown“未知的，不知道的”；D：convenient “方便的，便利的”。根据上文“fear seized me. My wallet was gone.”可知，作者将钱包落在了公共汽车上，而汽车正在开往某个作者未知的地方，这使得找回钱包的希望渺茫，因此作者心生恐惧。故选C。
（2）考查形容词。A：face-saving“ 保全体面的；顾全面子的”；B：brain-washing“洗脑的”；C：eye-catching“引人注目的，耀眼的”；D：heart-stopping “令人心跳停止的，惊心动魄的”。根据上文“fear seized me”可以推知，作者在发现丢了钱包之后的第一感觉是“害怕”。之后，作者开始在内心计算找回钱包里的那些东西所需要的时间和钱数。故该空应和fear表达的意思相近，故选D。
（3）考查名词。A：parts“部分，角色，作用，零件”；B：contents“内容，内含物”；C：details“细节”；D：ingredients“ 原料，要素，组成部分”。根据下文“the credit cards， the driver's license, the cash”，这些都是钱包里装的东西。故选B。
（4）考查动词。A：ignored“忽视”；B：answered“回答，答复，回应”；C：examined“检查”；D：interrupted “打断”。两小时后有人敲门，丈夫去应门。故选B。
（5）考查动词。A：missing“丢失，迷失”；B：returned“归还”；C：remaining“保留”；D：abandoned“遗弃”。根据下文可知，那位女士捡到了作者的钱包，她拾金不昧，将钱包完璧归赵。由此可以推知，该处指“钱包里的钱一分也没有丢失”。故选A。
（6）考查副词。A：still“一直，仍然”；B：ever“曾经”；C：yet“但是”；D：even“甚至”。作者甚至还没有来得及到门口感谢那位女士，她就离开了。故选D。
（7）考查动词。A：selected“精选，挑选”；B：appointed“委派，任命”；C：identified“确认，认出，识别”；D：defined“下定义”。在网上分享了这个故事之后，作者收到了某个人的来信，这个人确认了那位女士是Erin Smith。故选C。
（8）考查名词。A：delay“延误，耽搁”；B；alarm“警报”；C：regret“后悔，遗憾”；D：invitation“邀请”。找到了那位拾金不昧的女士，作者当然要毫不耽搁地打电话去感谢对方。故选A。
（9）考查动词。A：moved“移动”；B：placed“放置”；C：opened“打开”；D：spotted “发现，认出”。作者将钱包落在了公共汽车上，Erin是在一个座位上发现了它。故选D。
（10）考查动词。A：disagreed“不同意”；B：complained“抱怨”；C：calculated“估算，估计，预料”；D：recommended“推荐”。根据下文的“a bitterly cold night”可知，这件事发生在一个寒冷的晚上。同时，Erin又不认识作者。由此推知，该句应指：Erin估计去一个陌生人的家是一个冒险的举动。故选C。
（11）考查形容词。A：selfless“无私的”；B：risky“冒险的”；C：slow“缓慢的”；D：personal“个人的”。根据下文中的转折词but可知，该句和“she decided to take the chance”她决定冒险，是转折关系。那么该句应指去一个陌生人家是一个冒险的举动。故选B。
（12）考查名词。A：site“地点，位置”；B：direction“方向，指导”；C：situation“形势，情况”；D：atmosphere “气氛，氛围”。该句叙述的是Erin当时的想法：“如果我处在那种情况下（指丢了钱包这种情形），我希望有个人努力地找到我”。故选C。
（13）考查名词。A：crisis“危机”；B：danger“危险”；C：threat“威胁”；D：failure “失败”。作者丢了钱包，对于作者来说，这是一个危难时刻。故选A。
（14）考查动词短语。A：got rid of“除掉”；B：made use of“利用”；C：had control of“控制”；D：took possession of “拥有，占有”。Erin捡到了作者的钱包，在归还作者之前，钱包在Erin的手里，故选D。
（15）考查宾语从句。Erin把作者的驾照图片发到一个论坛里，想看看是否有人认识作者。该空表示“是否”，故选A。
（16）考查动词。A：recalled“回忆”；B：exchanged“交流”；C：repeated“重复”；D：whispered “低语”。根据后面的转折词but可知，该句和下文“but they wanted to help.”是转折关系，由此推知，该句指：除了闲聊，作者和那两位妈妈从来没有说过话，即：从未和她们交换过词语。故选B。
（17）考查动词。A：encounter“偶遇，遇到，邂逅”；B：follow“跟随，遵循”；C：consult“咨询”；D：accompany “陪伴”。作者曾经读到这样的说法：人们比以往更加四分五裂，即：人们不像以前那样团结，不像以前那样互相帮助了。但是，作者遇到的这些人的行为方式不是那样的。上文中提到的Erin，two moms都是作者遇到的人。故选A。
（18）考查动词短语。A：Going away“走开”；B：Turning around“转身”；C：Looking back“回顾，追忆”；D：Coming along“一起前往”。回顾发生的这件事，作者感到很幸运：有人想帮助一个陌生人。故选C。
（19）考查介词。根据倒数第二段中的“people are more divided”可以推知，一般人在捡到别人的钱包后，都不会像Erin那样亲自归还失主。因此该句指：Erin的所作所为远远超越了其他人的行为。该空表示“超过，超越”，故选D。
（20）考查形容词。A：longing“渴望的”；B：enthusiastic“热情的”；C：concerned“关心的”；D：grateful “感激的”。Erin在寒冷的黑夜亲自登门归还作者的钱包，作者对此非常感激。故选D。

（4）考查细节理解。根据倒数第二段中的“...he will always stop what he's doing to take care of a child if that child is having a bad day. If a child approaches him, he will pause to give that boy his undivided attention. He's the most loved one in this building.”以及最后一段中的“Mabry works circles around all the students, cleaning up messes others don't want to touch. He doesn't expect a lot.”可知，Mabry 关心爱护孩子，帮助孩子，是一个善良、热心的人。一个不怕脏不怕累、勤奋工作的人。因此答案为：(Because) he loves/cares about（the）students and works hard. / (Because) he loves the students and devoted to his work. /(Because) he is kind/caring /helping to the students , and hard-working. / (Because) he is regarded as a kind /warm-hearted /helpful/caring and hard-working man.
（5）考查学生的观察综合表达能力。本题的题目：who is the "sunshine" in your life ”谁是你生活中的阳光？只要在生活或学习中帮助过你，关心你、爱护你的，鼓励你，安慰你的都可称为your sunshine。因此答案可为：My father/mother.(Because) he/she loves me and encouraged me when I'm faced/confronted with difficulties. Or: My teacher.(Because) he/she cares about me and prepares me for my future career. Or: My friend.(Because) he/she brings me joy/happiness and gives me a lot of comfort/ help/ encouragement.

【知识点】故事阅读类；记叙文
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文，作者将钱包落在了公共汽车上，Erin捡到了作者的钱包，在寒冷的黑夜亲自登门归还钱包。作者深受感动。
（1）考查形容词。A：accessible“可以获得的，可以进入的”；B：hidden“隐藏的”；C：unknown“未知的，不知道的”；D：convenient “方便的，便利的”。根据上文“fear seized me. My wallet was gone.”可知，作者将钱包落在了公共汽车上，而汽车正在开往某个作者未知的地方，这使得找回钱包的希望渺茫，因此作者心生恐惧。故选C。
（2）考查形容词。A：face-saving“ 保全体面的；顾全面子的”；B：brain-washing“洗脑的”；C：eye-catching“引人注目的，耀眼的”；D：heart-stopping “令人心跳停止的，惊心动魄的”。根据上文“fear seized me”可以推知，作者在发现丢了钱包之后的第一感觉是“害怕”。之后，作者开始在内心计算找回钱包里的那些东西所需要的时间和钱数。故该空应和fear表达的意思相近，故选D。
（3）考查名词。A：parts“部分，角色，作用，零件”；B：contents“内容，内含物”；C：details“细节”；D：ingredients“ 原料，要素，组成部分”。根据下文“the credit cards， the driver's license, the cash”，这些都是钱包里装的东西。故选B。
（4）考查动词。A：ignored“忽视”；B：answered“回答，答复，回应”；C：examined“检查”；D：interrupted “打断”。两小时后有人敲门，丈夫去应门。故选B。
（5）考查动词。A：missing“丢失，迷失”；B：returned“归还”；C：remaining“保留”；D：abandoned“遗弃”。根据下文可知，那位女士捡到了作者的钱包，她拾金不昧，将钱包完璧归赵。由此可以推知，该处指“钱包里的钱一分也没有丢失”。故选A。
（6）考查副词。A：still“一直，仍然”；B：ever“曾经”；C：yet“但是”；D：even“甚至”。作者甚至还没有来得及到门口感谢那位女士，她就离开了。故选D。
（7）考查动词。A：selected“精选，挑选”；B：appointed“委派，任命”；C：identified“确认，认出，识别”；D：defined“下定义”。在网上分享了这个故事之后，作者收到了某个人的来信，这个人确认了那位女士是Erin Smith。故选C。
（8）考查名词。A：delay“延误，耽搁”；B；alarm“警报”；C：regret“后悔，遗憾”；D：invitation“邀请”。找到了那位拾金不昧的女士，作者当然要毫不耽搁地打电话去感谢对方。故选A。
（9）考查动词。A：moved“移动”；B：placed“放置”；C：opened“打开”；D：spotted “发现，认出”。作者将钱包落在了公共汽车上，Erin是在一个座位上发现了它。故选D。
（10）考查动词。A：disagreed“不同意”；B：complained“抱怨”；C：calculated“估算，估计，预料”；D：recommended“推荐”。根据下文的“a bitterly cold night”可知，这件事发生在一个寒冷的晚上。同时，Erin又不认识作者。由此推知，该句应指：Erin估计去一个陌生人的家是一个冒险的举动。故选C。
（11）考查形容词。A：selfless“无私的”；B：risky“冒险的”；C：slow“缓慢的”；D：personal“个人的”。根据下文中的转折词but可知，该句和“she decided to take the chance”她决定冒险，是转折关系。那么该句应指去一个陌生人家是一个冒险的举动。故选B。
（12）考查名词。A：site“地点，位置”；B：direction“方向，指导”；C：situation“形势，情况”；D：atmosphere “气氛，氛围”。该句叙述的是Erin当时的想法：“如果我处在那种情况下（指丢了钱包这种情形），我希望有个人努力地找到我”。故选C。
（13）考查名词。A：crisis“危机”；B：danger“危险”；C：threat“威胁”；D：failure “失败”。作者丢了钱包，对于作者来说，这是一个危难时刻。故选A。
（14）考查动词短语。A：got rid of“除掉”；B：made use of“利用”；C：had control of“控制”；D：took possession of “拥有，占有”。Erin捡到了作者的钱包，在归还作者之前，钱包在Erin的手里，故选D。
（15）考查宾语从句。Erin把作者的驾照图片发到一个论坛里，想看看是否有人认识作者。该空表示“是否”，故选A。
（16）考查动词。A：recalled“回忆”；B：exchanged“交流”；C：repeated“重复”；D：whispered “低语”。根据后面的转折词but可知，该句和下文“but they wanted to help.”是转折关系，由此推知，该句指：除了闲聊，作者和那两位妈妈从来没有说过话，即：从未和她们交换过词语。故选B。
（17）考查动词。A：encounter“偶遇，遇到，邂逅”；B：follow“跟随，遵循”；C：consult“咨询”；D：accompany “陪伴”。作者曾经读到这样的说法：人们比以往更加四分五裂，即：人们不像以前那样团结，不像以前那样互相帮助了。但是，作者遇到的这些人的行为方式不是那样的。上文中提到的Erin，two moms都是作者遇到的人。故选A。
（18）考查动词短语。A：Going away“走开”；B：Turning around“转身”；C：Looking back“回顾，追忆”；D：Coming along“一起前往”。回顾发生的这件事，作者感到很幸运：有人想帮助一个陌生人。故选C。
（19）考查介词。根据倒数第二段中的“people are more divided”可以推知，一般人在捡到别人的钱包后，都不会像Erin那样亲自归还失主。因此该句指：Erin的所作所为远远超越了其他人的行为。该空表示“超过，超越”，故选D。
（20）考查形容词。A：longing“渴望的”；B：enthusiastic“热情的”；C：concerned“关心的”；D：grateful “感激的”。Erin在寒冷的黑夜亲自登门归还作者的钱包，作者对此非常感激。故选D。

18．（2019·天津）阅读理解
I must have always known reading was very
important because the first memories I have as a child deal with books. There
was not one night that I don't remember mom reading me a storybook by my
bedside. I was extremely inspired by the elegant way the words sounded.
I always wanted to know what my mom was
reading. Hearing mom say," I can't believe what's printed in the newspaper
this morning," made me want to grab it out of her hands and read it
myself. I wanted to be like my mom and know all of the things she knew. So I
carried around a book, and each night, just to be like her, I would pretend to
be reading.
This is how everyone learned to read. We
would start off with sentences, then paragraphs, and then stories. It seemed an
unending journey, but even as a six-year-old girl I realized that knowing how
to read could open many doors. When mom said," The C-A-N-D-Y is hidden on
the top shelf," I knew where the candy was. My progress in reading raised
my curiosity, and I wanted to know everything. I often found myself telling my
mom to drive more slowly, so that I could read all of the road signs we passed.
Most of my reading through primary, middle
and high school was factual reading. I read for knowledge, and to make A's on
my tests. Occasionally, I would read a novel that was assigned, but I didn't
enjoy this type of reading. I liked facts, things that are concrete. I thought
anything abstract left too much room for argument.
Yet, now that I'm growing and the world I
once knew as being so simple is becoming more complex, I find myself needing a
way to escape. By opening a novel, I can leave behind my burdens and enter into
a wonderful and mysterious world where I am now a new character. In these
worlds I can become anyone. I don't have to write down what happened or what
technique the author was using when he or she wrote this. I just read to relax.
We're taught to read because it's necessary
for much of human understanding. Reading is a vital part of my life. Reading
satisfies my desire to keep learning. And I've found that the possibilities
that lie within books are limitless.
（1）Why did the author want to grab the newspaper out of mom's hands？
A．She wanted mom to read the news to her.
B．She was anxious to know what had happened.
C．She couldn't wait to tear the newspaper apart.
D．She couldn't help but stop mom from reading.
（2）According to Paragraph 3, the author's reading of road signs indicates___________.
A．her unique way to locate herself
B．her eagerness to develop her reading ability
C．her effort to remind mom to obey traffic rules
D．her growing desire to know the world around her.
（3）What was the author's view on factual reading
A．It would help her update test-taking skills.
B．It would allow much room for free thinking.
C．It would provide true and objective information.
D．It would help shape a realistic and serious attitude to life.
（4）The author takes novel reading as a way to___________.
A．explore a fantasy land B．develop a passion for leaning
C．learn about the adult community D．get away from a confusing world
（5）What could be the best title for the passage？
A．The Magic of Reading B．The Pleasure of Reading
C．Growing Up with Reading D．Reading Makes a Full Man

（2）考查推理判断。根据第三段中的“My progress in reading raised my curiosity, and I wanted to know everything，”可以推断出，让妈妈开车开慢一点，他能够读出所有路标，正是作者在阅读方面的进步引起了他的好奇心，想要了解周围的一切，故选D。
（3）考查推理判断。根据第四段中的“Most of my reading through primary, middle and high school was factual reading. I read for knowledge, and to make A's on my test.”可知，小学和中学阶段的阅读都是事实性阅读，读书是为了获取知识，考试得A。因此事实性阅读能够提供真实的客观的信息，故选 C。
（4）考查细节理解。根据第五段中的“By opening a novel, I can leave behind my burdens and enter into a wonderful and mysterious world where I am now a new character. In these worlds I can become anyone.” 打开一本小说，我可以摆脱我的负担，进入一个奇妙而神秘的世界，我现在是一个新的角色。在这个世界上，我可以成为任何人。 可知，阅读小说可以让作者避开复杂的现实而投入到小说中的世界中去，故选D。
（5）考查主旨大意。根据上下文可知，作者以时间顺序回忆了自己的阅读经历和感悟，伴着阅读成长，故选C。
【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解，推理判断和主旨大意三个题型的考查，是一篇故事类阅读，要求考生在捕捉细节信息的基础上，进一步根据上下文的逻辑关系，进行分析，推理，概括和归纳，从而选出正确答案。
19．（2019·天津）阅读理解
How does an ecosystem（生态系统）work What makes the populations of different species the way they
are Why are there so many flies and so few wolves To find an answer, scientists
have built mathematical models of food webs, noting who eats whom and how much
each one eats.
With such models, scientists have found out
some key principles operating in food webs. Most food webs, for instance, consist
of many weak links rather than a few strong ones. When a predator（掠食动物）always eats huge numbers of a single prey（猎物）, the two species are strongly linked; when a predator lives on
various species, they are weakly linked. Food webs may be dominated by many
weak links because that arrangement is more stable over the long term. If a
predator can eat several species, it can survive the extinction（灭绝）of one of them. And if a predator can move on to another species
that is easier to find when a prey species becomes rare, the switch allows the
original prey to recover. The weak links may thus keep species from driving one
another to extinction.
Mathematical models have also revealed that food webs may be unstable, where small changes of top predators can lead to big effects throughout entire ecosystems. In the 1960s, scientists proposed that predators at the top of a food web had a surprising amount of control over the size of populations of other species—including species they did not directly attack.
And unplanned human activities have proved
the idea of top-down control by top predators to be true. In the ocean, we
fished for top predators such as cod on an industrial scale, while on land, we
killed off large predators such as wolves. These actions have greatly affected
the ecological balance.
Scientists have built an early-warning
system based on mathematical models. Ideally, the system would tell us when to
adapt human activities that are pushing an ecosystem toward a breakdown or
would even allow us to pull an ecosystem back from the borderline. Prevention
is key, scientists says because once ecosystems pass their tipping point（临界点）, it is remarkably difficult for them to return.
（1）What have scientists discovered with the help of mathematical models of food webs？
A．The living habits of species in food webs.
B．The rules governing food webs of the ecosystems.
C．The approaches to studying the species in the ecosystems.
D．The differences between weak and strong links in food webs.
（2）A strong link is found between two species when a predator______.
A．has a wide food choice B．can easily find new prey
C．sticks to one prey species D．can quickly move to another place
（3）What will happen if the populations of top predators in a food web greatly decline？
A．The prey species they directly attack will die out.
B．The species they indirectly attack will turn into top predators.
C．The living environment of other species will remain unchanged.
D．The populations of other species will experience unexpected changes.
（4）What conclusion can be drawn from the examples in Paragraph 4？
A．Uncontrolled human activities greatly upset ecosystems.
B．Rapid economic development threatens animal habitats.
C．Species of commercial value dominate other species.
D．Industrial activities help keep food webs stable.
（5）How does an early-warning system help us maintain the ecological balance？
A．By getting illegal practices under control.
B．By stopping us from killing large predators.
C．By bringing the broken-down ecosystems back to normal.
D．By signaling the urgent need for taking preventive action.

【知识点】科普环保类；说明文
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了借助食物网的数学模型，科学家们发现了一些在食物网运营的关键原则。科学家们说;因为一个生态系统越过了它的临界点，它们很难再回来。该系统将告诉我们何时适应人类活动，这些活动正将生态系统推向崩溃，或者甚至允许我们将生态系统从边缘拉回来，预防是关键。
（1）考查细节理解。根据第二段中的“With such models, scientists have found out some key principles operating in food webs.”可知，借助食物网的数学模型，科学家们发现了食物网中的一些关键原则。故选B。
（2）考查细节理解。根据第二段中的“When a predator(掠食动物) always eats huge numbers of a single prey(猎物)，the two species are strongly linked”可知，当捕食者总是吃大量的单一猎物，这两个物种是紧密相连的。故选C。
（3）考查推理判断。根据第三段中的“In the 1960s, scientists proposed that predators at the top of a food web had, a surprising amount of control over the size of populations of other species they did not directly attack”可知，处于食物网顶端的食肉动物对它们没有直接攻击的其他物种的种群数量有着惊人的控制，由此可推断出，如果食物链顶级食肉动物的数量大大下降，其他物种的种群将经历意想不到的变化。故选D。
（4）考查推理判断。根据最后一段中的“Ideally the system would tell us when to adapt human activities that are pushing an ecosystem toward a breakdown or would even allow us to pull an ecosystem back from the borderline”可知，人类过度的活动会将生态系统推向崩溃，由此可推断出，不受控制的人类活动极大地破坏了生态系统。故选A。
（5）考查细节理解。根据最后一段中的“Scientists have built an early-warming system based on mathematical models. Ideally the system would tell us when to adapt human activities that are pushing an ecosystem toward a breakdown or would even allow us to pull an ecosystem back from the borderline.”可知，早期变暖系统发出紧急需要采取预防行动的信号帮助我们维持生态平衡。故选D。

20．（2019·天津）阅读理解
Would you BET on the future of this man？He is 53 years old. Most of his adult life has been a losing struggle against debt and misfortune. A war injury has made his left hand stop functioning, and he has often been in prison. Driven by heaven-knows-what motives, he determines to write a book.
The book turns out to be one that has appealed to the world for more than 350 years. That former prisoner was Cervantes, and the book was Don Quixote（《堂吉诃德》）. And the story poses an interesting question: why do some people discover new vitality and creativity to the end of their days, while others go to seed long before？
We've all known people who run out of steam before they reach life's halfway mark. I'm not talking about those who fail to get to the top. We can't all get there. I'm talking about people who have stopped learning on growing because they have adopted the fixed attitudes and opinions that all too often come with passing years.
Most of us, in fact, progressively narrow the variety of our lives. We succeed in our field of specialization and then become trapped in it. Nothing surprises us. We lose our sense of wonder. But, if we are willing to learn, the opportunities are everywhere.
The things we learn in maturity seldom involve information and skills. We learn to bear with the things we can't change. We learn to avoid self-pity. We learn that however much we try to please, some people are never going to love us-an idea that troubles at first but is eventually relaxing.
With high motivation and enthusiasm, we can keep on learning. Then we will know how important it is to have meaning in our life. However, we can achieve meaning only if we have made a commitment to something larger than our own little egos（自我）, whether to loved ones, to fellow humans, to work, or to some moral concept.
Many of us equate（视……等同于）"commitment" with such "caring" occupations as teaching and nursing. But doing any ordinary job as well as one can is in itself an admirable commitment. People who work toward such excellence whether they are driving a truck, or running a store-make the world better just by being the kind of people they are. They've learned life's most valuable lesson.
（1）The passage starts with the story of Cervantes to show that_________.
A．loss of freedom stimulates one's creativity
B．age is not a barrier to achieving one's goal
C．misery inspires a man to fight against his fate
D．disability cannot stop a man's pursuit of success
（2）What does the underlined part in Paragraph 3 probably mean？
A．End one's struggle for liberty.
B．Waste one's energy taking risks.
C．Miss the opportunity to succeed.
D．Lose the interest to continue learning.
（3）What could be inferred from Paragraph 4
A．Those who dare to try often get themselves trapped.
B．Those who tend to think back can hardly go ahead.
C．Opportunity favors those with a curious mind.
D．Opportunity awaits those with a cautious mind.
（4）What does the author intend to tell us in Paragraph 5
A．A tough man can tolerate suffering.
B．A wise man can live without self-pity.
C．A man should try to satisfy people around him.
D．A man should learn suitable ways to deal with life.
（5）What is the author's purpose in writing the passage
A．To provide guidance on leading a meaningful adult life.
B．To stress the need of shouldering responsibilities at work.
C．To state the importance of generating motivation for learning.
D．To suggest a way of pursuing excellence in our lifelong career.

（2）考查词义猜测。根据第三段中的“I'm talking about people who have stopped learning on growing because they have adopted the fixed attitudes and opinions that all too often come with passing years.”可知，作者谈论的不是那些没有到达巅峰的人，而是谈论那些不再学习成长的人，故可知run out of steam可知，停止学习，故选D。
（3）考查推理判断。根据第四段中的“we lose the sense of wonder. But, if we are willing to learn, the opportunities are everywhere.”可知，我们失去了好奇感，但是如果我们愿意学习，机会无处不在，故可知，机会总是留给那些好奇心的人，故选C。
（4）考查推理判断。根据第五段中的“We learn to bear with the things we can't change. We learn to avoid self-pity. We learn that however much we try to please, some people are never going to love us—an idea that troubles at first but is eventually relaxing.”可知，我们学会承受那些无法改变的事情，学会避免自怜，也学会了无论我们怎么去取悦别人，有些人是无法喜欢我们的，这个观点起初让我们苦恼，但是之后会让我们释怀，故可知，本段作者告诉我们要学会使用恰当的方式来对待生活，故选D。
（5）考查主旨大意。本文讲述要成功，就需要不断的学习，这样的生活才会有意义，故本文作者的目的是为了指导我们过一个有意义的成年人生活，故选A。
【点评】本题考点涉及推理判断，词义猜测和主旨大意三个题型的考查，是一篇教育类阅读，要求考生根据上下文的逻辑关系，进行分析，推理，概括和归纳，从而选出正确答案。

21．（2019·天津） 阅读短文，按照题目要求用英语回答问题。
Haze Mabry, who has worked as a school keeper for thirteen years, walks into the school building every day and empties garbage cans, wipes down bathrooms and mops wet messes in the hallways.
Last Friday, after he arrived at the school, instead of finding garbage to clean up, he found almost 800 students lining the hallways with handmade cards, blowing noisemakers and singing a full-throated happy birthday to him. It was his 80th. As he walked the long hallway, some popped out of lime to hug him. They handed him so many cards that they filled several large boxes. Touched by their enthusiastic expression of affection. Mabry thanked them all. "They're like my children," Mabry said.
On a regular day, students at the school sometimes come up to him to say they're not feeling well or other times to tell him about something that happened at break. He knows most of the kids at the school, but can't name each one. Some of them make him know them. Like Faith, who often forgets her backpack in the cafeteria, and Lucy, who just wants a hug.
"He won't brag（夸耀）on himself, but it doesn't matter what he's doing or where he is, he will always stop what he's doing to take care of a child if that child is having a bad day. If a child approaches him, he will pause to give that child his undivided attention. He's the most loved one in this building," said Lori Gilreath, a reading teacher.
Mabry works circles around all the students, cleaning up messes others don't want to touch. He doesn't expect a lot. Mabry said he hadn't planned to do much for his milestone birthday, so he was happy the students had prepared the surprise celebration.
Over the weekend, he worked through the piles of handmade cards at his house. One card from a student stood out to him. It read: "Mr. Haze, you are my sunshine.”
