1．（2020高二上·浙江开学考）阅读理解
Isabel Allende was born on August 2,
1942, in Lima, Peru. Her parents were both from Chile, where their families had
held a great deal of political influence. Not only was Isabel's godfather once
the president of Chile, but her father and her stepfather were both important
diplomats. Despite her connection to political power, Isabel's childhood was
not easy. At the age of two, Isabel's biological father abandoned her family,
which forced them to live with her grandparents in Chile. During this time, she
was exposed to her grandmothers love for astrology (占星术) and storytelling, which influenced
her writing in the future.
Throughout the 1960s and 1970s, Isabel
Allende worked as a journalist, writing for both magazines and television.
After her godfather, President Salvador Allende, lost power and was murdered in
1973, Isabel and her family left Chile because they felt it was too dangerous
to remain under the rule of Augusto Pinochet, the new, cruel leader of Chile.
For thirteen years, Isabel and her family lived in Venezuela, where she began
to write fiction.
She used personal experiences to
inspire her writing throughout her career. In fact, many of her novels are
based on personal life events. In 1985, Isabel Allende published her first
novel called The House of the Spirits.
This bestselling novel was inspired by a letter Isabel wrote in 1981 to her ill
grandfather. The novel turned out to be a story about two Chilean families
whose lives are changed because of a military coup. One of her later novels, Paula (1994), is about her daughter, who
passed away from a rare disease at a young age.
Isabel Allende has won many awards for
her bold and creative writing. Not only has she won the Chilean National Prize
for Literature in 2010, but she was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom
in 2014.
（1）Who should be responsible for Isabel's hard childhood life

A．her own personality B．her family background

C．A biography. D．A book review.
2．（2020高二上·浙江开学考）阅读理解
I like being 100% stimulant
free—no coffee, caffeinated tea, chocolate, caffeinated soda, etc. I base this
on lots of personal experimentation. I've gone some years of my life with no
stimulants, and I've also gone for a long time consuming coffee daily. The two
modes of living are totally different.
Caffeine tends to make me
obsess more over minor tasks and lose focus on big picture goals. When I
consume coffee daily, Ill check email more often. I'll spend more time on
social media. I'll web surf more. I'll spend more time organizing and
reorganizing instead of moving the needle forward on big projects. I'll feel
extra busy but have less to show for it.
Stimulants always exhaust
me eventually, especially after months of daily use. I can't seem to make good
progress on bigger projects, and I can tell that my mind is becoming too
chaotic. I might spend 8 hours at my desk and get 90 minutes of important work
done. I know I am at the point when I need to take at least several weeks off.
I love the taste of coffee,
and it's delightful to drink a cup of it, but I've learned that I can't really
have any relationship with it if I want to function at my best. It's way too
addictive (上瘾的) for me. If I have even a
small amount, I risk slipping into the pattern of having it daily for months.
I've learned that it's best
to avoid chocolate too (including cacao) because chocolate is a gateway drug
back to coffee. Same goes for green tea. So while I have enjoyed those in the
past, I feel safer not having them. I like how my brain works better when not
under the influence of stimulants.
（1）The writer may when consuming caffeine daily.
A．work less efficiently B．ignore minor tasks
C．become energetic D．concentrate on big projects
（2）What can we learn from the text
A．The writer finds it relaxing to have a cup of coffee every day.
B．The writer has just started avoiding taking any stimulant recently.
C．The writer seldom drinks coffee because he doesn't like the taste.
D．The writer thinks a small amount of coffee may cause his addiction to it.
（3）What is the text mainly about
A．What the writer did to be 100% stimulant-free.
B．Why the writer said no to stimulants completely.
C．How stimulants helped improve work efficiency.
D．How the writer became addicted to stimulants.

A huge 42 percent of
marriages in the UK end in divorce, the highest rate in Europe. What is happening
in the UK to cause such a phenomenon Many consider the family to be the basic
building block of society. If marriages and families are falling apart, is the
UK society also falling apart Is the UKs cultural identity breaking down The
UK of today is one of the most multicultural countries on earth. There are exotic
sights and sounds on the street corners of every British city. British cuisine
is now one of the most diverse around. Everyone speaks with a different accent.
Is such diversity a good
thing Well, it makes the UK a very exciting place to live in. There are new
ideas everywhere. There is great freedom to be who you want to be, and most
people will not criticize you for who you are. Yet such freedom seems to come
at a cost. Some British people regard ethnic minorities (少数民族) as coming to the UK to steal jobs. When the economy does badly,
this feeling increases as unemployment rates rise. So, it could be argued that
the breakdown of marriages in the UK is in some part because of the pressures
put upon families by wider problems in British society. Many people become
stressed when those problems arise, and that can then make their family life
unhappy as well.
Another possible reason for
the high divorce rate might be that marriage no longer has the same value or
meaning for British people as it once did. Church attendance in the UK has been
falling for the last 50 years, suggesting fewer people consider marriage a holy
thing. Since 1991, there has been a drop of 50 percent in people getting
married in church rather than a register office.
Then there is the financial
side. In the past, married couples paid lower government taxes than single
people. That tax incentive (激励) policy, which used to
reduce a couples tax by up to 500 in a year, has now disappeared, making the
cost to keep a marriage higher.
However, the 42 percent UK
divorce rate isn't the highest rate in the past forty years! Meanwhile, some
measures are being taken to strengthen marriage in the UK by the government.
（1）According to the text, all the following account for the high divorce rate except .
A．Desire for freedom. B．Social problems.
C．Change of values. D．Financial pressures.
（2）What does the underlined word "exotic" probably mean in paragraph 1
A．amazing B．foreign C．local D．familiar
（3）What can be inferred from the text
A．Cultural diversity has brought people freedom to criticize others.
B．The rising of the divorce rate indicates the society is falling apart.
C．The tax incentive policy once contributed to steady families to some degree.
D．More British people would get married in the church rather than in a register office.
（4）What's the writer's attitude towards the present situation of the divorce rate in UK
A．Pessimistic. B．Unconcerned. C．Doubtful. D．Optimistic.
二、任务型阅读（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
4．（2020高二上·浙江开学考）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项多余选项。
You want to have fun and
adventure and so you decide to travel somewhere to do it. Sounds like a simple
enough thing. And basically it is. But what is adventure 　 　
For those who love sports,
adventure travel can have a whole different meaning than for those who like
history. The physical travel types that you can find include such adventure
travel as white water rafting (白浪漂流), climbing and hiking to
some mountains somewhere. To the hiker, backpacking across Ireland might be
their adventure.　 　Often the goal is to push
their body's limits and test their individual endurance (耐力).
For those who less want to
climb mountains, it might mean traveling to Nepal and joining in the local
festivals.　 　Anything that is going
beyond the normal defines (定义) adventure.
　 　Adventure depends on the
persons physical limits, how much money the person has and what the person
enjoys doing. If your life is quite busy, then sitting on a beach in the
moonlight with your family might be adventure for you. The point is not what
you do but that you have a good time and that it is an adventure for YOU—not
for the person next to you.
Do not sit home this year
when vacation time rolls around. 　 　You will be rewarded
handsomely.
A. Adventure travel is not
necessarily suitable for everyone.
B. To those sports lovers,
adventure travel means nothing but harm.
C. Adventure travel is not
necessarily a one-size-fits-all type of vacation.
D. That is the key here and
the answer can be different for different people.
E. Just go beyond your normal
routine and head out on an adventure vacation.
F. For this type of person,
adventure travel almost always means something physical.
G. Wine tasting in Italy is
also vacation adventure for those who enjoys peace and comfort.

My son Ben had
barely heard of his cousins Marcia and Juli before we moved to their
hometown. Since wed become neighbors, I thought he should get to know them. So,
I invited the cousins over for a meet-and-greet one afternoon.
When the bell rang, Ben
rushed to open the door. In came Marcia, a chatty, retired schoolteacher in her
70s. Dragging behind her, relying heavily on his walkingstick,
was her over-eighty-year-old husband Juli, who used to be a sports
lover. Not having seen him since I'd become a mom, I wondered whether he was
kid-friendly. With one glance, I quickly decided that he probably wasn't.
After the introductions, we
sat down to have a chat. Ben, who was 4 at the time, stared curiously at the
cousins. Suddenly, he eyed Julis walking stick, which stood right beside his
chair. "Why do you have a stick " he asked abruptly.
Juli paused for a while as
he hadn't expected my son to speak to him. Then he seemed pleased that Ben had
noticed something about him. He briefly explained, and invited Ben to try out
the walking stick. Excited, Ben stepped up, took it in hand and walked with it
around the room. The serious look on Julis face softened as he watched. That
afternoon, Ben popped in and out of the room several times to have fun with his
new friend. Toward the end of the visit, Ben sneaked over to Juli, wordlessly
climbed onto his lap and gave him a hug. After a little surprise, Julis
lips curved into a subtle smile.
During the following two
years, Juli often came to babysit Ben. The two would call each other buddy
and laughed loudly together, even though one was much older.
One summer evening,
unexpectedly, I received a painful call saying that Juli had just passed
away, which came as a shock to me. I gently told Ben about the terrible
loss, explaining that Juli was 85. "That was so young!" Ben
shouted between tears.

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了作家Isabel Allende的个人经历，分析了影响她写作的一些因素以及她所获得的成就。
（1）考查细节理解。根据第一段中的“Despite her connection to political power, Isabel's childhood was not easy. At the age of two, Isabel's biological father abandoned her family, which forced them to live with her grandparents in Chile.”可知尽管伊莎贝尔与政治势力有联系，但她的童年并不容易。伊莎贝尔两岁时，她的生父抛弃了她的家庭，迫使他们和她的祖父母住在智利。可知，伊莎贝尔的父亲应该对她艰难的童年生活负责。故选B。
（2）考查细节理解。根据第一段中的“During this time, she was exposed to her grandmothers love for astrology (占星术) and storytelling, which influenced her writing in the future.“在此期间，她接触到了祖母对占星术和讲故事的热爱，这影响了她以后的写作；以及第三段中的“She used personal experiences to inspire her writing throughout her career. In fact, many of her novels are based on personal life events. In 1985, Isabel Allende published her first novel called The House of the Spirits. This bestselling novel was inspired by a letter Isabel wrote in 1981 to her ill grandfather. The novel turned out to be a story about two Chilean families whose lives are changed because of a military coup. One of her later novels, Paula (1994), is about her daughter, who passed away from a rare disease at a young age.”可知在她的职业生涯中，她用个人经历激励自己写作。事实上，她的许多小说都是基于个人生活事件。1985年，Isabel Allende出版了她的第一部小说《幽灵之家》。这本畅销小说的灵感来自伊莎贝尔在1981年写给她生病的祖父的一封信。这部小说是关于两个智利家庭的故事，他们的生活因为一场军事政变而改变。她后来的一部小说《宝拉》(1994)是关于她的女儿的，她的女儿在很小的时候就死于一种罕见的疾病。由此可知，影响伊莎贝尔的写作的因素包括她的家庭背景、她祖母的热情以及她的个人生活经历，除了A选项“她自己的个性”。故选A。

（3）B
【知识点】主旨大意题；细节理解题；人物故事类；记叙文
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文，作者喜欢100%不含兴奋剂的生活——不喝咖啡，不含咖啡因的茶，巧克力，不含咖啡因的苏打水等等。同时说明了作者不喜欢这类含有兴奋剂东西的原因是，当作者每天摄入咖啡因时，工作效率可能会降低，并且最终总会让人筋疲力尽。作者喜欢大脑在不受兴奋剂影响的情况下工作得更好。
（1）考查细节理解。根据第二段“Caffeine tends to make me obsess more over minor tasks and lose focus on big picture goals. When I consume coffee daily, Ill check email more often. I'll spend more time on social media. I'll web surf more. I'll spend more time organizing and reorganizing instead of moving the needle forward on big projects. I'll feel extra busy but have less to show for it.”咖啡因会让我更沉迷于小任务，而失去对大目标的关注。当我每天喝咖啡的时候，我会更频繁地查看电子邮件。我会花更多的时间在社交媒体上。我会更多地上网冲浪。我会花更多的时间组织和重组，而不是在大项目上动针前进。我会觉得特别忙，但却没什么表现。可知，当作者每天摄入咖啡因时，工作效率可能会降低。故选A。
（2）考查细节理解。根据第四段中的“It's way too addictive (上瘾的) for me. If I have even a small amount, I risk slipping into the pattern of having it daily for months.”这对我来说太上瘾了。即使我只喝一点点，我也有可能陷入连续几个月每天都喝的模式。可知，作者认为少量的咖啡可能会使他上瘾。故选D。
（3）考查主旨大意。根据第一段“I like being 100% stimulant free—no coffee, caffeinated tea, chocolate, caffeinated soda, etc. I base this on lots of personal experimentation. I've gone some years of my life with no stimulants, and I've also gone for a long time consuming coffee daily. The two modes of living are totally different.”我喜欢100%不含兴奋剂的生活——不喝咖啡，不含咖啡因的茶，巧克力，不含咖啡因的苏打水等等。这是我基于大量的个人实验得出的结论。我已经有几年没有服用过兴奋剂了，我也有很长一段时间每天喝咖啡。这两种生活方式是完全不同的。结合文章同时说明了作者不喜欢这类含有兴奋剂东西的原因是，当作者每天摄入咖啡因时，工作效率可能会降低，并且最终总会让人筋疲力尽。作者喜欢大脑在不受兴奋剂影响的情况下工作得更好。可知，这篇文章的主要内容是为什么作者对兴奋剂完全说不。故选B。
【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解和主旨大意两个题型的考查，是一篇故事类阅读，考生需要准确捕捉细节信息，并根据上下文的逻辑关系，进行概括和归纳，从而选出正确答案。

（2）B
（3）C
（4）D
【知识点】推理判断题；词义猜测题；细节理解题；说明文；社会现象类
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了英国离婚率高的原因。
（1）考查细节理解。根据第二段中的“So, it could be argued that the breakdown of marriages in the UK is in some part because of the pressures put upon families by wider problems in British society.”因此，可以认为英国婚姻的破裂在某种程度上是由于英国社会更广泛的问题给家庭带来的压力。可知，社会问题是高离婚率的一个原因；第三段中的“Another possible reason for the high divorce rate might be that marriage no longer has the same value or meaning for British people as it once did.”造成高离婚率的另一个可能的原因是，婚姻对英国人来说不再像过去那样具有同样的价值或意义。可知，价值观的改变是高离婚率的一个原因；以及第四段中的“Then there is the financial side.”然后是金融方面的问题。可知，经济压力也是高离婚率的一个原因。“对自由的渴望”并不是离婚率高的原因。故选A。
（2）考查词义猜测。根据第一段中的“The UK of today is one of the most multicultural countries on earth. ”今天的英国是地球上最多元文化的国家之一，可推知划线词所在的句子“There are exotic sights and sounds on the street corners of every British city.”意思是在英国每个城市的街角都能看到异国情调的景象和声音，可知exotic意为“异国的”。故选B。
（3）考查推理判断。根据第四段中的“That tax incentive (激励) policy, which used to reduce a couples tax by up to 500 in a year, has now disappeared, making the cost to keep a marriage higher.”过去的税收优惠政策每年可以减少夫妻税500英镑，但现在已经消失，使得维持婚姻的成本更高。可推知，税收优惠政策曾在一定程度上促进了家庭的稳定。故选C。
（4）考查推理判断。根据最后一段中的“However, the 42 percent UK divorce rate isn't the highest rate in the past forty years! Meanwhile, some measures are being taken to strengthen marriage in the UK by the government.”然而，英国42%的离婚率并不是过去40年里最高的！与此同时，政府正在采取一些措施来加强英国的婚姻。可推知，作者对现有的离婚率状况持乐观的态度。故选D。

【知识点】七选五
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了冒险旅游的含义和重要性，以及不同的人有的不同冒险方式，不同的人有着不同的回答。一般说来任何与自己日常生活方式截然不同的事情都可以算做冒险活动。作者认为根据一个人的身体素质，可承担的费用以及一个人的爱好不同，冒险活动也有着不同的含义，但是无论做什么关键是要玩的开心。
（1）考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据空前“But what is adventure ”提出问题：什么是冒险？可推断空格处是对问题的回答；以及空后“For those who love sports, adventure travel can have a whole different meaning than for those who like history.”对于那些热爱运动的人来说，冒险旅行比起那些喜欢历史的人可能有一个完全不同的意义。可推断对于不同的人来说，答案可能是不同的。D. That is the key here and the answer can be different for different people.“这就是问题的关键，答案因人而异。”符合语境。故选D。
（2）考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据空后“Often the goal is to push their body's limits and test their individual endurance (耐力).”目标经常是推动他们的身体极限，并测试他们的个人耐力，可知，空格处应是说冒险是总是意味着体力上的东西，this type of person指上文提到徒步旅行者，他们的冒险或许就是穿越爱尔兰的远足野营。故选F。
（3）考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据空前“For those who less want to climb mountains, it might mean traveling to Nepal and joining in the local festivals”对于那些不太想爬山的人来说，它可能意味着去尼泊尔旅游，参加当地的节日；以及空后“Anything that is going beyond the normal defines (定义) adventure.”任何超出正常的东西都定义为冒险，因此G. Wine tasting in Italy is also vacation adventure for those who enjoys peace and comfort.“意大利的品酒也是那些享受和平和舒适的人的度假冒险”，符合此处语境。故选G。
（4）考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据空后“Adventure depends on the persons physical limits, how much money the person has and what the person enjoys doing.”冒险取决于人的身体限制，一个人有多少钱，一个人喜欢做什么。可推断，冒险旅行不应该是一种一刀切的度假方式。下文是对选项的具体的解释。故选C。
（5）考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据空前“Do not sit home this year when vacation time rolls around.”当假期来临不要坐在家里，因此推断此处鼓励读者走出常规日常，去度假冒险。与下文“你会得到丰厚的回报”上下相连。符合语境。故选E。
【点评】本题要求在理解细节信息的基础上，着重考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。
5．【答案】（1）C；（2）B；（3）A；（4）D；（5）D；（6）A；（7）B；（8）C；（9）B；（10）D；（11）B；（12）B；（13）D；（14）C；（15）A；（16）A；（17）C；（18）A；（19）C；（20）D
【知识点】故事阅读类；记叙文
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文。作者在课堂上听不懂周围人说话而苦恼，后来在一次课堂提问中，他勇敢的举手回答，获得了老师的鼓励和赞美，作者从此变得自信，学习成绩得到了提高，受到同龄人的刮目相看。
（1）考查动词。句意：我只好坐在前排，这样我就能读懂老师讲的话了。A. see“看见”；B. feel“感觉”；C. read“读懂，阅读”；D. recognize“认出”。根据语境，我在课堂上，听不清楚周围的人说的是什么，所以坐到教室的前排，是为了能够更清楚地看到老师而读懂老师的意思。故选C。
（2）考查动词。句意： 几乎跟不上班级的讨论，因为我听不到周围的人在说什么。A. join“加入”；B. follow“跟上”；C. respond“反应”；D. begin“开始”。根据下文，我听不清楚同学们的讨论，为了跟上他们，经常需要问周围的人说了什么。因此，此处表达的意思是作者几乎跟不上班级的讨论。故选B。
（3）考查宾语从句。句意：无论谁碰巧坐在我旁边，我总是会向他询问周围的人正在说什么。A. whoever“无论谁”； B. whichever“无论哪一个”； C. whatever“无论什么”；D. whomever“无论谁”。这是一个宾语从句，空格处的连接词充当宾语从句的主语，代指坐在作者旁边的人，因此应该用连接代词whoever，故选A。

8．【答案】Paragraph 1:
The next day, we decided to visit cousin Marcia. On our arrival, Ben gave her a warm hug. We then listened as she recalled Juli over family albums. With eyes lingering on the photos, Ben remained quiet. Suddenly he spotted a sun-tanned, unfamiliar young Juli. Curious, he looked up at Marcia. "Juli loved sports before he broke his legs in an accident. " She explained. There came a long silence. Then Marcia turned to Ben, grabbed his hands and smiled, "Ben, you brought laughter back to Julis life. You were his buddy, and a hero. " (84 words)
Paragraph 2:
Before we left, Marcia told Ben that she had something special to give him. When Ben watched Marcia taking out a walking stick from a wooden case, he first looked surprised, then honored. It was a dark brown stick, not very old, but already showing wear and tear. Thanking Marcia, he received the stick from her hands with a broad smile. Marcia's wrinkled face also blossomed into a smile. Then he took the stick in hand, supporting himself with it the way that he'd seen Juli do countless times. Proudly, Ben walked outside into the sunshine. (86 words)
【知识点】文字式记叙文；开放性作文
【解析】【分析】本题是一篇读后续写。文章讲述了作者和4岁的儿子Ben搬回老家后，儿子意外地和外表严肃的80多岁表兄——Juli成了忘年交。Juli常常过来照顾Ben，他们一起开心的玩耍。但意外的是，一个夏天的傍晚传来噩耗，Juli去世了。续写分为两个部分：第一部分的开头是：第二天，我们决定去拜访Marcia。所以可以接着写在去拜访的过程中，Ben看到年轻时候的Juli，并知道他在腿受伤之前很爱运动。Marcia非常感谢Ben对Juli的陪伴，因为他让Juli又重新开心起来，有了精神寄托。可以添加细节描写来表现Marcia对Ben的感激。第二部分的开头是：在我们离开前Marcia说她有一些特别的东西要给Ben。所以可以接着写：Marcia要送给他的是Juli的拐杖。他一开始感到意外，但很快就感到这是他的荣誉。拐杖对他来说意味着Juli还在身边。他拿着拐杖，学着Juli的样子高兴地走起来。可以添加细节描写来表现Ben对Juli的怀念。用5个以上的关键词增加了写作难度。在写作时，要熟悉关键词，并在适当时候加以应用。完成写作后要将关键词下划线。
【点评】本书面表达要点齐全，上下文连贯，使用一定数量的句式结构，让句子更加生动丰满，同时运用了许多高级词汇和固定短语，提高文章的档次，体现了对英语的熟练的驾驭能力。例如：We then listened as she recalled Juli over family albums. 运用了时间状语从句；With eyes lingering on the photos, Ben remained quiet.运用了独立主格结构； Juli loved sports before he broke his legs in an accident. 运用了时间状语从句；There came a long silence.运用了倒装句； When Ben watched Marcia taking out a walking stick from a wooden case, he first looked surprised, then honored. 运用了时间状语从句； Then he took the stick in hand, supporting himself with it the way that he'd seen Juli do countless times. 运用了限制性定语从句。

浙江省名校协作体2020-2021学年高二上学期英语开学考试试卷
一、阅读理解 (共10小题；每小题2.5分，满分25分)
1．（2020高二上·浙江开学考）阅读理解
Isabel Allende was born on August 2,
1942, in Lima, Peru. Her parents were both from Chile, where their families had
held a great deal of political influence. Not only was Isabel's godfather once
the president of Chile, but her father and her stepfather were both important
diplomats. Despite her connection to political power, Isabel's childhood was
not easy. At the age of two, Isabel's biological father abandoned her family,
which forced them to live with her grandparents in Chile. During this time, she
was exposed to her grandmothers love for astrology (占星术) and storytelling, which influenced
her writing in the future.
Throughout the 1960s and 1970s, Isabel
Allende worked as a journalist, writing for both magazines and television.
After her godfather, President Salvador Allende, lost power and was murdered in
1973, Isabel and her family left Chile because they felt it was too dangerous
to remain under the rule of Augusto Pinochet, the new, cruel leader of Chile.
For thirteen years, Isabel and her family lived in Venezuela, where she began
to write fiction.
She used personal experiences to
inspire her writing throughout her career. In fact, many of her novels are
based on personal life events. In 1985, Isabel Allende published her first
novel called The House of the Spirits.
This bestselling novel was inspired by a letter Isabel wrote in 1981 to her ill
grandfather. The novel turned out to be a story about two Chilean families
whose lives are changed because of a military coup. One of her later novels, Paula (1994), is about her daughter, who
passed away from a rare disease at a young age.
Isabel Allende has won many awards for
her bold and creative writing. Not only has she won the Chilean National Prize
for Literature in 2010, but she was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom
in 2014.
（1）Who should be responsible for Isabel's hard childhood life
A．Her stepfather. B．Her father.
C．Her grandfather. D．Her godfather.
（2）According to the text, all the followings influenced Isabel's writing except .
A．her own personality B．her family background
C．her grandmothers passion D．her personal life experiences
（3）Where is the text probably from
A．A news report. B．A guidebook.
C．A biography. D．A book review.
【答案】（1）B
（2）A
（3）C
【知识点】推理判断题；细节理解题；人物故事类；记叙文
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了作家Isabel Allende的个人经历，分析了影响她写作的一些因素以及她所获得的成就。
（1）考查细节理解。根据第一段中的“Despite her connection to political power, Isabel's childhood was not easy. At the age of two, Isabel's biological father abandoned her family, which forced them to live with her grandparents in Chile.”可知尽管伊莎贝尔与政治势力有联系，但她的童年并不容易。伊莎贝尔两岁时，她的生父抛弃了她的家庭，迫使他们和她的祖父母住在智利。可知，伊莎贝尔的父亲应该对她艰难的童年生活负责。故选B。
（2）考查细节理解。根据第一段中的“During this time, she was exposed to her grandmothers love for astrology (占星术) and storytelling, which influenced her writing in the future.“在此期间，她接触到了祖母对占星术和讲故事的热爱，这影响了她以后的写作；以及第三段中的“She used personal experiences to inspire her writing throughout her career. In fact, many of her novels are based on personal life events. In 1985, Isabel Allende published her first novel called The House of the Spirits. This bestselling novel was inspired by a letter Isabel wrote in 1981 to her ill grandfather. The novel turned out to be a story about two Chilean families whose lives are changed because of a military coup. One of her later novels, Paula (1994), is about her daughter, who passed away from a rare disease at a young age.”可知在她的职业生涯中，她用个人经历激励自己写作。事实上，她的许多小说都是基于个人生活事件。1985年，Isabel Allende出版了她的第一部小说《幽灵之家》。这本畅销小说的灵感来自伊莎贝尔在1981年写给她生病的祖父的一封信。这部小说是关于两个智利家庭的故事，他们的生活因为一场军事政变而改变。她后来的一部小说《宝拉》(1994)是关于她的女儿的，她的女儿在很小的时候就死于一种罕见的疾病。由此可知，影响伊莎贝尔的写作的因素包括她的家庭背景、她祖母的热情以及她的个人生活经历，除了A选项“她自己的个性”。故选A。
（3）考查推理判断。纵观全文可知，本文讲述了作家Isabel Allende的个人经历，分析了影响她写作的一些因素以及她所获得的成就。由此可推知，文章属于人物传记类，最有可能选自一本自传。故选C。
【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解和推理判断两个题型的考查，是一篇故事类阅读，考生需要准确捕捉细节信息，并根据上下进行逻辑推理，从而选出正确答案。
2．（2020高二上·浙江开学考）阅读理解
I like being 100% stimulant
free—no coffee, caffeinated tea, chocolate, caffeinated soda, etc. I base this
on lots of personal experimentation. I've gone some years of my life with no
stimulants, and I've also gone for a long time consuming coffee daily. The two
modes of living are totally different.
Caffeine tends to make me
obsess more over minor tasks and lose focus on big picture goals. When I
consume coffee daily, Ill check email more often. I'll spend more time on
social media. I'll web surf more. I'll spend more time organizing and
reorganizing instead of moving the needle forward on big projects. I'll feel
extra busy but have less to show for it.
Stimulants always exhaust
me eventually, especially after months of daily use. I can't seem to make good
progress on bigger projects, and I can tell that my mind is becoming too
chaotic. I might spend 8 hours at my desk and get 90 minutes of important work
done. I know I am at the point when I need to take at least several weeks off.
I love the taste of coffee,
and it's delightful to drink a cup of it, but I've learned that I can't really
have any relationship with it if I want to function at my best. It's way too
addictive (上瘾的) for me. If I have even a
small amount, I risk slipping into the pattern of having it daily for months.
I've learned that it's best
to avoid chocolate too (including cacao) because chocolate is a gateway drug
back to coffee. Same goes for green tea. So while I have enjoyed those in the
past, I feel safer not having them. I like how my brain works better when not
under the influence of stimulants.
（1）The writer may when consuming caffeine daily.
A．work less efficiently B．ignore minor tasks
C．become energetic D．concentrate on big projects
（2）What can we learn from the text
A．The writer finds it relaxing to have a cup of coffee every day.
B．The writer has just started avoiding taking any stimulant recently.
C．The writer seldom drinks coffee because he doesn't like the taste.
D．The writer thinks a small amount of coffee may cause his addiction to it.
（3）What is the text mainly about
A．What the writer did to be 100% stimulant-free.
B．Why the writer said no to stimulants completely.
C．How stimulants helped improve work efficiency.
D．How the writer became addicted to stimulants.
【答案】（1）A
（2）D
（3）B
【知识点】主旨大意题；细节理解题；人物故事类；记叙文
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文，作者喜欢100%不含兴奋剂的生活——不喝咖啡，不含咖啡因的茶，巧克力，不含咖啡因的苏打水等等。同时说明了作者不喜欢这类含有兴奋剂东西的原因是，当作者每天摄入咖啡因时，工作效率可能会降低，并且最终总会让人筋疲力尽。作者喜欢大脑在不受兴奋剂影响的情况下工作得更好。
（1）考查细节理解。根据第二段“Caffeine tends to make me obsess more over minor tasks and lose focus on big picture goals. When I consume coffee daily, Ill check email more often. I'll spend more time on social media. I'll web surf more. I'll spend more time organizing and reorganizing instead of moving the needle forward on big projects. I'll feel extra busy but have less to show for it.”咖啡因会让我更沉迷于小任务，而失去对大目标的关注。当我每天喝咖啡的时候，我会更频繁地查看电子邮件。我会花更多的时间在社交媒体上。我会更多地上网冲浪。我会花更多的时间组织和重组，而不是在大项目上动针前进。我会觉得特别忙，但却没什么表现。可知，当作者每天摄入咖啡因时，工作效率可能会降低。故选A。
（2）考查细节理解。根据第四段中的“It's way too addictive (上瘾的) for me. If I have even a small amount, I risk slipping into the pattern of having it daily for months.”这对我来说太上瘾了。即使我只喝一点点，我也有可能陷入连续几个月每天都喝的模式。可知，作者认为少量的咖啡可能会使他上瘾。故选D。
（3）考查主旨大意。根据第一段“I like being 100% stimulant free—no coffee, caffeinated tea, chocolate, caffeinated soda, etc. I base this on lots of personal experimentation. I've gone some years of my life with no stimulants, and I've also gone for a long time consuming coffee daily. The two modes of living are totally different.”我喜欢100%不含兴奋剂的生活——不喝咖啡，不含咖啡因的茶，巧克力，不含咖啡因的苏打水等等。这是我基于大量的个人实验得出的结论。我已经有几年没有服用过兴奋剂了，我也有很长一段时间每天喝咖啡。这两种生活方式是完全不同的。结合文章同时说明了作者不喜欢这类含有兴奋剂东西的原因是，当作者每天摄入咖啡因时，工作效率可能会降低，并且最终总会让人筋疲力尽。作者喜欢大脑在不受兴奋剂影响的情况下工作得更好。可知，这篇文章的主要内容是为什么作者对兴奋剂完全说不。故选B。
【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解和主旨大意两个题型的考查，是一篇故事类阅读，考生需要准确捕捉细节信息，并根据上下文的逻辑关系，进行概括和归纳，从而选出正确答案。
3．（2020高二上·浙江开学考）阅读理解
A huge 42 percent of
marriages in the UK end in divorce, the highest rate in Europe. What is happening
in the UK to cause such a phenomenon Many consider the family to be the basic
building block of society. If marriages and families are falling apart, is the
UK society also falling apart Is the UKs cultural identity breaking down The
UK of today is one of the most multicultural countries on earth. There are exotic
sights and sounds on the street corners of every British city. British cuisine
is now one of the most diverse around. Everyone speaks with a different accent.
Is such diversity a good
thing Well, it makes the UK a very exciting place to live in. There are new
ideas everywhere. There is great freedom to be who you want to be, and most
people will not criticize you for who you are. Yet such freedom seems to come
at a cost. Some British people regard ethnic minorities (少数民族) as coming to the UK to steal jobs. When the economy does badly,
this feeling increases as unemployment rates rise. So, it could be argued that
the breakdown of marriages in the UK is in some part because of the pressures
put upon families by wider problems in British society. Many people become
stressed when those problems arise, and that can then make their family life
unhappy as well.
Another possible reason for
the high divorce rate might be that marriage no longer has the same value or
meaning for British people as it once did. Church attendance in the UK has been
falling for the last 50 years, suggesting fewer people consider marriage a holy
thing. Since 1991, there has been a drop of 50 percent in people getting
married in church rather than a register office.
Then there is the financial
side. In the past, married couples paid lower government taxes than single
people. That tax incentive (激励) policy, which used to
reduce a couples tax by up to 500 in a year, has now disappeared, making the
cost to keep a marriage higher.
However, the 42 percent UK
divorce rate isn't the highest rate in the past forty years! Meanwhile, some
measures are being taken to strengthen marriage in the UK by the government.
（1）According to the text, all the following account for the high divorce rate except .
A．Desire for freedom. B．Social problems.
C．Change of values. D．Financial pressures.
（2）What does the underlined word "exotic" probably mean in paragraph 1
A．amazing B．foreign C．local D．familiar
（3）What can be inferred from the text
A．Cultural diversity has brought people freedom to criticize others.
B．The rising of the divorce rate indicates the society is falling apart.
C．The tax incentive policy once contributed to steady families to some degree.
D．More British people would get married in the church rather than in a register office.
（4）What's the writer's attitude towards the present situation of the divorce rate in UK
A．Pessimistic. B．Unconcerned. C．Doubtful. D．Optimistic.
【答案】（1）A
（2）B
（3）C
（4）D
【知识点】推理判断题；词义猜测题；细节理解题；说明文；社会现象类
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了英国离婚率高的原因。
（1）考查细节理解。根据第二段中的“So, it could be argued that the breakdown of marriages in the UK is in some part because of the pressures put upon families by wider problems in British society.”因此，可以认为英国婚姻的破裂在某种程度上是由于英国社会更广泛的问题给家庭带来的压力。可知，社会问题是高离婚率的一个原因；第三段中的“Another possible reason for the high divorce rate might be that marriage no longer has the same value or meaning for British people as it once did.”造成高离婚率的另一个可能的原因是，婚姻对英国人来说不再像过去那样具有同样的价值或意义。可知，价值观的改变是高离婚率的一个原因；以及第四段中的“Then there is the financial side.”然后是金融方面的问题。可知，经济压力也是高离婚率的一个原因。“对自由的渴望”并不是离婚率高的原因。故选A。
（2）考查词义猜测。根据第一段中的“The UK of today is one of the most multicultural countries on earth. ”今天的英国是地球上最多元文化的国家之一，可推知划线词所在的句子“There are exotic sights and sounds on the street corners of every British city.”意思是在英国每个城市的街角都能看到异国情调的景象和声音，可知exotic意为“异国的”。故选B。
（3）考查推理判断。根据第四段中的“That tax incentive (激励) policy, which used to reduce a couples tax by up to 500 in a year, has now disappeared, making the cost to keep a marriage higher.”过去的税收优惠政策每年可以减少夫妻税500英镑，但现在已经消失，使得维持婚姻的成本更高。可推知，税收优惠政策曾在一定程度上促进了家庭的稳定。故选C。
（4）考查推理判断。根据最后一段中的“However, the 42 percent UK divorce rate isn't the highest rate in the past forty years! Meanwhile, some measures are being taken to strengthen marriage in the UK by the government.”然而，英国42%的离婚率并不是过去40年里最高的！与此同时，政府正在采取一些措施来加强英国的婚姻。可推知，作者对现有的离婚率状况持乐观的态度。故选D。
【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解，词义猜测和推理判断三个题型的考查，是一篇社会现象类阅读，考生需要准确捕捉细节信息，并根据上下文的逻辑关系，进行分析，推理，从而选出正确答案。
二、任务型阅读（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
4．（2020高二上·浙江开学考）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项多余选项。
You want to have fun and
adventure and so you decide to travel somewhere to do it. Sounds like a simple
enough thing. And basically it is. But what is adventure 　 　
For those who love sports,
adventure travel can have a whole different meaning than for those who like
history. The physical travel types that you can find include such adventure
travel as white water rafting (白浪漂流), climbing and hiking to
some mountains somewhere. To the hiker, backpacking across Ireland might be
their adventure.　 　Often the goal is to push
their body's limits and test their individual endurance (耐力).
For those who less want to
climb mountains, it might mean traveling to Nepal and joining in the local
festivals.　 　Anything that is going
beyond the normal defines (定义) adventure.
　 　Adventure depends on the
persons physical limits, how much money the person has and what the person
enjoys doing. If your life is quite busy, then sitting on a beach in the
moonlight with your family might be adventure for you. The point is not what
you do but that you have a good time and that it is an adventure for YOU—not
for the person next to you.
Do not sit home this year
when vacation time rolls around. 　 　You will be rewarded
handsomely.
A. Adventure travel is not
necessarily suitable for everyone.
B. To those sports lovers,
adventure travel means nothing but harm.
C. Adventure travel is not

【答案】D；F；G；C；E
【知识点】七选五
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了冒险旅游的含义和重要性，以及不同的人有的不同冒险方式，不同的人有着不同的回答。一般说来任何与自己日常生活方式截然不同的事情都可以算做冒险活动。作者认为根据一个人的身体素质，可承担的费用以及一个人的爱好不同，冒险活动也有着不同的含义，但是无论做什么关键是要玩的开心。
（1）考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据空前“But what is adventure ”提出问题：什么是冒险？可推断空格处是对问题的回答；以及空后“For those who love sports, adventure travel can have a whole different meaning than for those who like history.”对于那些热爱运动的人来说，冒险旅行比起那些喜欢历史的人可能有一个完全不同的意义。可推断对于不同的人来说，答案可能是不同的。D. That is the key here and the answer can be different for different people.“这就是问题的关键，答案因人而异。”符合语境。故选D。
（2）考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据空后“Often the goal is to push their body's limits and test their individual endurance (耐力).”目标经常是推动他们的身体极限，并测试他们的个人耐力，可知，空格处应是说冒险是总是意味着体力上的东西，this type of person指上文提到徒步旅行者，他们的冒险或许就是穿越爱尔兰的远足野营。故选F。
（3）考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据空前“For those who less want to climb mountains, it might mean traveling to Nepal and joining in the local festivals”对于那些不太想爬山的人来说，它可能意味着去尼泊尔旅游，参加当地的节日；以及空后“Anything that is going beyond the normal defines (定义) adventure.”任何超出正常的东西都定义为冒险，因此G. Wine tasting in Italy is also vacation adventure for those who enjoys peace and comfort.“意大利的品酒也是那些享受和平和舒适的人的度假冒险”，符合此处语境。故选G。
（4）考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据空后“Adventure depends on the persons physical limits, how much money the person has and what the person enjoys doing.”冒险取决于人的身体限制，一个人有多少钱，一个人喜欢做什么。可推断，冒险旅行不应该是一种一刀切的度假方式。下文是对选项的具体的解释。故选C。
（5）考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据空前“Do not sit home this year when vacation time rolls around.”当假期来临不要坐在家里，因此推断此处鼓励读者走出常规日常，去度假冒险。与下文“你会得到丰厚的回报”上下相连。符合语境。故选E。
【点评】本题要求在理解细节信息的基础上，着重考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。

（1）考查时态。根据时间状语since ancient times可知应用现在完成时，且主语与谓语动词构成被动关系，故应用现在完成时的被动语态，且定语从句中谓语动词与先行词steps保持一致，故助动词应用have。故填have been practised。

8．（2020高二上·浙江开学考）阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
My son Ben had
barely heard of his cousins Marcia and Juli before we moved to their
hometown. Since wed become neighbors, I thought he should get to know them. So,
I invited the cousins over for a meet-and-greet one afternoon.
When the bell rang, Ben
rushed to open the door. In came Marcia, a chatty, retired schoolteacher in her
70s. Dragging behind her, relying heavily on his walkingstick,
was her over-eighty-year-old husband Juli, who used to be a sports
lover. Not having seen him since I'd become a mom, I wondered whether he was
kid-friendly. With one glance, I quickly decided that he probably wasn't.
After the introductions, we
sat down to have a chat. Ben, who was 4 at the time, stared curiously at the
cousins. Suddenly, he eyed Julis walking stick, which stood right beside his
chair. "Why do you have a stick " he asked abruptly.
Juli paused for a while as
he hadn't expected my son to speak to him. Then he seemed pleased that Ben had
noticed something about him. He briefly explained, and invited Ben to try out
the walking stick. Excited, Ben stepped up, took it in hand and walked with it
around the room. The serious look on Julis face softened as he watched. That
afternoon, Ben popped in and out of the room several times to have fun with his
new friend. Toward the end of the visit, Ben sneaked over to Juli, wordlessly
climbed onto his lap and gave him a hug. After a little surprise, Julis
lips curved into a subtle smile.
During the following two
years, Juli often came to babysit Ben. The two would call each other buddy
and laughed loudly together, even though one was much older.
One summer evening,
unexpectedly, I received a painful call saying that Juli had just passed
away, which came as a shock to me. I gently told Ben about the terrible
loss, explaining that Juli was 85. "That was so young!" Ben
shouted between tears.

Para 1: The next day, we decided to visit cousin Marcia.
Para 2: Before we left, Marcia told Ben that she had something
special to give hi
【答案】Paragraph 1:
The next day, we decided to visit cousin Marcia. On our arrival, Ben gave her a warm hug. We then listened as she recalled Juli over family albums. With eyes lingering on the photos, Ben remained quiet. Suddenly he spotted a sun-tanned, unfamiliar young Juli. Curious, he looked up at Marcia. "Juli loved sports before he broke his legs in an accident. " She explained. There came a long silence. Then Marcia turned to Ben, grabbed his hands and smiled, "Ben, you brought laughter back to Julis life. You were his buddy, and a hero. " (84 words)
Paragraph 2:
Before we left, Marcia told Ben that she had something special to give him. When Ben watched Marcia taking out a walking stick from a wooden case, he first looked surprised, then honored. It was a dark brown stick, not very old, but already showing wear and tear. Thanking Marcia, he received the stick from her hands with a broad smile. Marcia's wrinkled face also blossomed into a smile. Then he took the stick in hand, supporting himself with it the way that he'd seen Juli do countless times. Proudly, Ben walked outside into the sunshine. (86 words)
【知识点】文字式记叙文；开放性作文
【解析】【分析】本题是一篇读后续写。文章讲述了作者和4岁的儿子Ben搬回老家后，儿子意外地和外表严肃的80多岁表兄——Juli成了忘年交。Juli常常过来照顾Ben，他们一起开心的玩耍。但意外的是，一个夏天的傍晚传来噩耗，Juli去世了。续写分为两个部分：第一部分的开头是：第二天，我们决定去拜访Marcia。所以可以接着写在去拜访的过程中，Ben看到年轻时候的Juli，并知道他在腿受伤之前很爱运动。Marcia非常感谢Ben对Juli的陪伴，因为他让Juli又重新开心起来，有了精神寄托。可以添加细节描写来表现Marcia对Ben的感激。第二部分的开头是：在我们离开前Marcia说她有一些特别的东西要给Ben。所以可以接着写：Marcia要送给他的是Juli的拐杖。他一开始感到意外，但很快就感到这是他的荣誉。拐杖对他来说意味着Juli还在身边。他拿着拐杖，学着Juli的样子高兴地走起来。可以添加细节描写来表现Ben对Juli的怀念。用5个以上的关键词增加了写作难度。在写作时，要熟悉关键词，并在适当时候加以应用。完成写作后要将关键词下划线。
【点评】本书面表达要点齐全，上下文连贯，使用一定数量的句式结构，让句子更加生动丰满，同时运用了许多高级词汇和固定短语，提高文章的档次，体现了对英语的熟练的驾驭能力。例如：We then listened as she recalled Juli over family albums. 运用了时间状语从句；With eyes lingering on the photos, Ben remained quiet.运用了独立主格结构； Juli loved sports before he broke his legs in an accident. 运用了时间状语从句；There came a long silence.运用了倒装句； When Ben watched Marcia taking out a walking stick from a wooden case, he first looked surprised, then honored. 运用了时间状语从句； Then he took the stick in hand, supporting himself with it the way that he'd seen Juli do countless times. 运用了限制性定语从句。
