2．（2020高一下·四川开学考）阅读理解
Max
Vernon Mathews has been called the father of computer music. He created electronic
tools so that people could use computers as musical instruments. He had a huge influence
on the development of electronic music and how it is written, recorded and played.
In
1957, Max Mathews wrote the first computer program that enabled a computer to create
sound and play it back. At the time, he was working as an engineer at Bell Laboratories
in New Jersey. His computer program was called Music. It enabled a large IBM computer
to play a seventeen-second piece of music that he had written.
The
computer was so slow that it would have taken an hour to play the piece of music
in seventeen seconds. For that reason, Mathews moved the work to a tape player,
which could be sped up to play the music at a normal speed. He later said that the
sound quality of the musical notes was not great, but the technical importance of
the music was huge.
The
science fiction writer Arthur C. Clarke visited Bell Laboratories in the 1960s.
He heard a computer "sing" the song "Daisy Bell" on devices
and programs developed by Max Mathews and other engineers. Clarke noted this technology
in his book 2001: A Space Odyssey, which was later made into a movie.
Mathews
continued creating other versions of the Music program. He became interested in
how computers could help musicians outside recording studios. The Groove program
he developed was the first computer program made for live performances. He also
developed an electronic device he called the Radio Baton. The device looks like
two drum sticks. It enables the user to control the speed and sound levels of orchestral
music played on a computer. The user does this by moving the two sticks on a special
electronic surface.
Max
Mathews believed modern musicians are not making full use of the power of computer
music. He said a violin always sounds like a violin. But with a computer, the way
a violin sounds is unlimited. He said he did not want computer sounds to replace
live music. But he said he hoped laptop computers would one day be considered serious
instruments.
（1）How did the program Music work according to the text
A．It helped design a computer program.
B．It created sound by using computers.
C．It could record a seventeen-second piece of music.
D．It enabled a large IBM computer to work faster.
（2）Why did Mathews turn to a tape player？
A．It was of light weight.
B．Its sound was of great quality.
C．It could play the music faster than the computer.
D．It could play more pieces of music than the computer.
（3）Why did Max Mathews' Music appear in Clarke's book
A．The book dealt with music.
B．Music added sound to the book.
C．The book was recorded by Music.
D．Music was a new invention at that time.
（4）What is the fifth paragraph mainly about
A．Devices and programs Max Mathews created.
B．The characteristics of Max Mathews' works.
C．How Max Mathews' program was applied.
D．How Max Mathews developed computer programs.
（5）What do we know about Max Vernon Mathews

3．（2020高一下·四川开学考）阅读理解
We
know more about the surface of the planet Mars than we know about what is at the
bottom of Earth's oceans. Until recently, scientists had mapped only about 20 percent
of the sea floor. But our knowledge of the deep seas is changing because of information
from satellites. Scientists have produced a new map that provides a detailed picture
of the oceans.
The
new map is twice as detailed as the map made 20 years ago. David Sandwell is a geophysics
professor at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography at the University of California.
He and other scientists worked on the mapping project. He says they turned to
space to look deeper into the ocean.
"The
way we're doing that is to use a satellite altimeter(测高仪), a radar to map the topography(地形) of the ocean surface.
That is because the ocean surface topography is different because of gravitational(引力的) effects."
The
scientists collected and studied information from two satellites. One was the European
Space Agency's Cryo-2 satellite that was placed in Earth's orbit to watch sea ice.
The other satellite is the American space agency's Jason-1, studying the surface
of the oceans. Scientists combined the satellite data with images gathered by equipment
on ships. The equipment works by sending sound waves through the water. When the
sound waves hit an object, its presence is confirmed.
The
new map shows the sea floor as it has never been seen before. It shows thousands
of underwater mountains and places where continents pulled apart. It shows where
earthquakes were active many years ago. In one place, three mountain ridges(山脊) join at the same area.
"It's called the Indian Ocean Triple Junction. It's one of my favorite spots
in the ocean. You have three plates-the African plate, and the Indo-Australian plate
and the Antarctic plate-all connected at this one point in the center of the Indian
Ocean," says David Sandwell.
The
map is a powerful tool for those interested in protecting the environment and for
oil exploration. It also can help ships travel safely and improve scientific projects
worldwide. Of course, scientists will make many more discoveries as they examine
the new map and the information it provides.
（1）We can owe the success of the new mapping project to________.
A．the details of the old map
B．Europe's cooperation with America
C．Scientists' continual measuring work under the sea
D．The application of radar and sound wave measuring equipment
（2）What does the underlined sentence in paragraph 2 mean
A．They hoped to use space technology to map the ocean floor.
B．They wanted the satellite to produce the map.
C．They had never explored the deeper ocean.
D．They decided to search the outer space.
（3）What is mainly talked about in paragraph 4
A．The function of sound waves.
B．The difference of two satellites.
C．The difficulties of mapping the oceans
D．The process of mapping the ocean floor.
（4）The fifth paragraph is used to______.
A．show the discovery through the new map
B．Prove the earthquakes were active under the ocean
C．Explain how the ocean floor developed
D．Introduce what the underwater mountains were like
（5）What would be the best title for the text
A．How to Explore the Deep Sea
B．How to Get Pictures of the Ocean
C．Scientists Create New Maps of Ocean Floor
D．Much of the Sea Floor Waits for Exploration
【答案】（1）D
（2）A
（3）D
（4）A
（5）C
【知识点】推理判断题；细节理解题；段落大意；科普环保类；说明文；标题选择
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了科学家绘制了海底面积百分之二十的地图，得益于卫星传来的信息，有助于我们对于深海的了解更加详细。
（1）考查推理判断。根据第三段中的”The way we're doing that is to use a satellite altimeter(测高仪), a radar to map the topography(地形) of the ocean surface.“ 我们这样做的方法是使用卫星测高仪，一种可以绘制海洋表面的地形的雷达；以及第四段中的”The equipment works by sending sound waves through the water. When the sound waves hit an object, its presence is confirmed.“ 设备的工作原理是通过水发送声波。当声波击中物体时，证实物体存在。可推断，我们可以把新的绘图项目的成功归功于雷达和声波测量设备的应用，故选D。
（2）考查句义猜测。根据第三段中的”The way we're doing that is to use a satellite altimeter(测高仪), a radar to map the topography(地形) of the ocean surface. That is because the ocean surface topography is different because of gravitational(引力的) effects.“ 我们这样做的方法是使用卫星测高仪，一种可以绘制海洋表面的地形的雷达，这是因为由于引力的效应，海洋表面地形是不同的。可推断，划线部分说的是他们求助于太空来更深入的探索海洋，也就是希望利用空间技术绘制海底地图。故选A。
（3）考查段落大意。根据第四段可知，本段讲述科学家们从两颗卫星收集和研究信息。 其中一颗是欧洲航天局的Cryo-2卫星，被放置在地球轨道上观看海冰。另一颗卫星是美国航天局的杰森-1，研究海洋表面。科学家将卫星数据与船上设备收集的图像结合起来。设备的工作原理是穿过水发送声波。当声波击中物体时，就证实存在。因此推断本段主要讲述绘制海床的过程。故选D。
（4）考查推理判断。根据第五段中的”The new map shows the sea floor as it has never been seen before. It shows thousands of underwater mountains and places where continents pulled apart. It shows where earthquakes were active many years ago.“ 新地图显示了以前从未见过的海底。展示了成千上万的水下山脉和大陆被分开的地方。显示了许多年前地震活跃的地方。可推断，本段被用来展示新地图的发现。故选A。
（5）考查主旨大意。纵观全文可知，本文讲述了科学家绘制了海底面积百分之二十的地图，得益于卫星传来的信息，新地图有助于我们对于深海的了解更加详细，故选C。
【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解，句义猜测，推理判断，段落大意和主旨大意五个题型的考查，是一篇科技类阅读，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。

knee pain, you can run on soft surfaces, do exercise to strengthen your leg muscles,
avoid hills and get running shoes. Running is always (energy). If you are time poor, you need
run for only half the time to get the same benefits as other sports, so perhaps
we should all give it a try.
【答案】longer；that/which；causes；To avoid；energetic
【知识点】语法填空
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了跑步的各种益处，比如延长寿命，降低患病几率等。
（1）句意：跑步的人比不跑步的人要多活三年。根据后面的than可知，此处在进行比较，要用比较级形式。故填longer。
（2）根据句法和句意可知，空格处引导限制性定语从句，先行词为前面的a study，在从句中充当主语，故用关系代词which或者that。故填that/which。
（3）from all causes由于各种原因，cause是可数名词，前面又有all修饰，所以要用复数形式。故填causes。

When
I was little, Friday's night was our family game night. After supper, we would play
card games of all sorts in the sitting room. As the kid, I loved to watch the cartoons,
but no matter how many times I asked to watch them, my parents would not to let
me. They would say to me that playing card games would help my brain. Still I unwilling
to play the games with them sometimes. I don't realize how right my parents were
until I entered high school. The games my parents taught me when I was a child turned
out to be very useful later in my life.
【答案】①Friday's →Friday ②the →a ③去掉to ④unwilling前加was ⑤don't →didn't
【知识点】短文改错
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了作者的个人经历。小时候周五夜晚家长不允许作者看卡通片，而是让他和他们一块儿玩扑克牌游戏。长大后作者才明白，这些纸牌游戏在后来的生活中很有用。
①名词作定语，往往表明被修饰名词的时间、地点、类别、目的或用途、材料或来源等。名词所有格作定语则强调与被修饰的词的所有关系或表示逻辑上的谓语关系。此处表示"星期五晚上"，并不是所有关系，故Friday's改为Friday。
②这里表示"作为一个孩子"，a用在表示泛指的单数名词前，the表示特指，kid是以辅音音素开头的单词。故the改为a。
③would后跟动词原形，故not后的to删除。
④be unwilling to do sth.固定短语，"不愿意做某事，不情愿做某事"。本文介绍的是过去的情况，故用过去时。所以在unwilling前加was。
⑤文章讲述过去发生的事情，用一般过去时，故don't改为didn't。
【点评】本题考点涉及名词，冠词，固定短语，时态等多个知识点的考查，是一篇故事类阅读，覆盖面广，综合性强，难度较大，区分度高。

Max
Vernon Mathews has been called the father of computer music. He created electronic
tools so that people could use computers as musical instruments. He had a huge influence
on the development of electronic music and how it is written, recorded and played.
In
1957, Max Mathews wrote the first computer program that enabled a computer to create
sound and play it back. At the time, he was working as an engineer at Bell Laboratories
in New Jersey. His computer program was called Music. It enabled a large IBM computer
to play a seventeen-second piece of music that he had written.
The
computer was so slow that it would have taken an hour to play the piece of music
in seventeen seconds. For that reason, Mathews moved the work to a tape player,
which could be sped up to play the music at a normal speed. He later said that the
sound quality of the musical notes was not great, but the technical importance of
the music was huge.
The
science fiction writer Arthur C. Clarke visited Bell Laboratories in the 1960s.
He heard a computer "sing" the song "Daisy Bell" on devices
and programs developed by Max Mathews and other engineers. Clarke noted this technology
in his book 2001: A Space Odyssey, which was later made into a movie.
Mathews
continued creating other versions of the Music program. He became interested in
how computers could help musicians outside recording studios. The Groove program
he developed was the first computer program made for live performances. He also
developed an electronic device he called the Radio Baton. The device looks like
two drum sticks. It enables the user to control the speed and sound levels of orchestral
music played on a computer. The user does this by moving the two sticks on a special
electronic surface.
Max
Mathews believed modern musicians are not making full use of the power of computer
music. He said a violin always sounds like a violin. But with a computer, the way
a violin sounds is unlimited. He said he did not want computer sounds to replace
live music. But he said he hoped laptop computers would one day be considered serious
instruments.
（1）How did the program Music work according to the text
A．It helped design a computer program.
B．It created sound by using computers.
C．It could record a seventeen-second piece of music.
D．It enabled a large IBM computer to work faster.
（2）Why did Mathews turn to a tape player？
A．It was of light weight.
B．Its sound was of great quality.
C．It could play the music faster than the computer.
D．It could play more pieces of music than the computer.
（3）Why did Max Mathews' Music appear in Clarke's book
A．The book dealt with music.
B．Music added sound to the book.
C．The book was recorded by Music.
D．Music was a new invention at that time.
（4）What is the fifth paragraph mainly about
A．Devices and programs Max Mathews created.
B．The characteristics of Max Mathews' works.
C．How Max Mathews' program was applied.
D．How Max Mathews developed computer programs.
（5）What do we know about Max Vernon Mathews
A．He is the father of music.
B．He is influential as an engineer.
C．He made great contributions to computer music.
D．He wanted computer sounds to take the place of live music.

We
know more about the surface of the planet Mars than we know about what is at the
bottom of Earth's oceans. Until recently, scientists had mapped only about 20 percent
of the sea floor. But our knowledge of the deep seas is changing because of information
from satellites. Scientists have produced a new map that provides a detailed picture
of the oceans.
The
new map is twice as detailed as the map made 20 years ago. David Sandwell is a geophysics
professor at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography at the University of California.
He and other scientists worked on the mapping project. He says they turned to
space to look deeper into the ocean.
"The
way we're doing that is to use a satellite altimeter(测高仪), a radar to map the topography(地形) of the ocean surface.
That is because the ocean surface topography is different because of gravitational(引力的) effects."
The
scientists collected and studied information from two satellites. One was the European
Space Agency's Cryo-2 satellite that was placed in Earth's orbit to watch sea ice.
The other satellite is the American space agency's Jason-1, studying the surface
of the oceans. Scientists combined the satellite data with images gathered by equipment
on ships. The equipment works by sending sound waves through the water. When the
sound waves hit an object, its presence is confirmed.
The
new map shows the sea floor as it has never been seen before. It shows thousands
of underwater mountains and places where continents pulled apart. It shows where
earthquakes were active many years ago. In one place, three mountain ridges(山脊) join at the same area.
"It's called the Indian Ocean Triple Junction. It's one of my favorite spots
in the ocean. You have three plates-the African plate, and the Indo-Australian plate
and the Antarctic plate-all connected at this one point in the center of the Indian
Ocean," says David Sandwell.
The
map is a powerful tool for those interested in protecting the environment and for
oil exploration. It also can help ships travel safely and improve scientific projects
worldwide. Of course, scientists will make many more discoveries as they examine
the new map and the information it provides.
（1）We can owe the success of the new mapping project to________.
A．the details of the old map
B．Europe's cooperation with America
C．Scientists' continual measuring work under the sea
D．The application of radar and sound wave measuring equipment
（2）What does the underlined sentence in paragraph 2 mean
A．They hoped to use space technology to map the ocean floor.
B．They wanted the satellite to produce the map.
C．They had never explored the deeper ocean.
D．They decided to search the outer space.
（3）What is mainly talked about in paragraph 4
A．The function of sound waves.
B．The difference of two satellites.
C．The difficulties of mapping the oceans
D．The process of mapping the ocean floor.
（4）The fifth paragraph is used to______.
A．show the discovery through the new map
B．Prove the earthquakes were active under the ocean
C．Explain how the ocean floor developed
D．Introduce what the underwater mountains were like
（5）What would be the best title for the text
A．How to Explore the Deep Sea
B．How to Get Pictures of the Ocean
C．Scientists Create New Maps of Ocean Floor
D．Much of the Sea Floor Waits for Exploration

【点评】考查完形填空，本题考点涉及动词，名词，形容词，固定短语等多个知识点的考查，是一篇故事类阅读，要求考生在理解细节信息的基础上，进一步根据上下文的逻辑关系，进行分析推理，从而选出正确答案。
6．【答案】longer；that/which；causes；To avoid；energetic
【知识点】语法填空
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了跑步的各种益处，比如延长寿命，降低患病几率等。
（1）句意：跑步的人比不跑步的人要多活三年。根据后面的than可知，此处在进行比较，要用比较级形式。故填longer。
（2）根据句法和句意可知，空格处引导限制性定语从句，先行词为前面的a study，在从句中充当主语，故用关系代词which或者that。故填that/which。
（3）from all causes由于各种原因，cause是可数名词，前面又有all修饰，所以要用复数形式。故填causes。
（4）句意：为了避免膝盖疼痛，你可以在柔软的表面上跑步，做运动来增强你的腿部肌肉，避免山丘和穿跑鞋。avoid knee pain作目的状语，用不定式形式，置句首单词首字母大写，故填To avoid。
（5）根据句子结构可知，此处是be动词后的表语，需要用形容词。所以要把名词转换成形容词。故填energetic。
【点评】本题考点涉及形容词，定语从句，名词，非谓语动词以及形容词等多个知识点的考查，要求考生在理解细节信息的基础上，进一步根据上下文的逻辑关系，并结合相关语法知识，进行分析推理，从而写出正确的单词形式。
7．【答案】①Friday's →Friday ②the →a ③去掉to ④unwilling前加was ⑤don't →didn't
【知识点】短文改错
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了作者的个人经历。小时候周五夜晚家长不允许作者看卡通片，而是让他和他们一块儿玩扑克牌游戏。长大后作者才明白，这些纸牌游戏在后来的生活中很有用。
①名词作定语，往往表明被修饰名词的时间、地点、类别、目的或用途、材料或来源等。名词所有格作定语则强调与被修饰的词的所有关系或表示逻辑上的谓语关系。此处表示"星期五晚上"，并不是所有关系，故Friday's改为Friday。
②这里表示"作为一个孩子"，a用在表示泛指的单数名词前，the表示特指，kid是以辅音音素开头的单词。故the改为a。
③would后跟动词原形，故not后的to删除。
④be unwilling to do sth.固定短语，"不愿意做某事，不情愿做某事"。本文介绍的是过去的情况，故用过去时。所以在unwilling前加was。
⑤文章讲述过去发生的事情，用一般过去时，故don't改为didn't。
【点评】本题考点涉及名词，冠词，固定短语，时态等多个知识点的考查，是一篇故事类阅读，覆盖面广，综合性强，难度较大，区分度高。
