(山西高三上学期诊断)
Nearly two million drivers in the UK have had accidents due to “Baby on Board” signs and children’s toys that affect their view，according to alarming new research.One in 20 motorists says stickers and playtime paraphernalia (装备) are to blame for a collision—equivalent to 1.85 million of Britain’s 37 million drivers.The discovery triggered a warning by a road safety charity—Brake to cut down on clutter (杂乱的东西) in the car.
Deputy chief executi ve Julie Townsend said “Baby on Board” signs are very useful in alerting the emergency services that a child may be involved in case of a crash.“This help can become negative if drivers display signs when their child isn’t in the car，” she said.“Worse stil l is the danger that can be caused by drivers influencing their view by cluttering up (塞满) windows with lots of signs.Drivers’ priority should always be getting there safely without putting themselves，young passengers or other road users at risk.”
A survey arranged by price comparison website https://www.360docs.net/doc/bb10779339.html, found that 37 percent of parents have displayed signs and four out of five of them believe they improve safety.But 46 percent admit doing so at all times—regardless of whether or not their child is in the car—and 15 percent admit they only have them for their novelty (新奇) value.The poll of 2,000 drivers also found that 46 percent of drivers regard them as a risk and 33 percent say they are lacking in taste.
“There are benefits and dangers to ‘Baby on Board’ signs.They can offer useful information for medical aid in case of a crash but having too many novelty items displayed could be a safety issue，” said a https://www.360docs.net/doc/bb10779339.html, spokesman.

这是一篇议论型完形填空，主要说明孩子们在童年和青少年时期所面临的来自大人们的压力。
1. B考查语境理解。由后半句害怕考试与学校的成绩报告单可知答案。
2. D考查生活常识。在学校，考试是经常进行的，所以如果学生害怕考试的话，他就会不断地（感到）恐慌。
3. A考查生活常识。孩子在成长阶段中的一举一动都受到大人的关注。
4. C考查词语辨析。这里用times指代需要早早上床休息的时光。
5. D考查语境理解。从had to eat判断，小孩子不愿意吃，hateful十分讨厌的符合语境。
6. A考查语境理解。从if you don’t do as I say, I will来判断，大人是在施加压力，所以用pressure。
7. B考查生活常识。自己印象深刻的话语或事情，是不容易忘掉的，故用never。 8. C考查行文逻辑。结合上下文可知，此处表示程度的加深及进一步列举事例。 9. A考查固定搭配。Suffer from受苦，受折磨。
10. B考查语境理解。上句话提到孩子们遭受的那些恐惧的由来，本句作进一步强调。

12. B考查行文逻辑。从连词while来判断，前后两句话表示对比。Share their fears with other adults与face their fears alone相对应。
13. A考查语境理解。结合上下文可知，比起童年，青春期更痛苦。
14. B考查生活常识。前半句指走出童年，那么后半句应指步入青少年时期。
15. D考查语境理解。青少年开始反对父母的看法。
16.考查固定搭配。Lack of意为缺乏……。
17. D考查固定搭配。本句中 they make充当定语，前面省略了关系代词 that/which。此处应用impression构成固定搭配make impression on给……印象。 18. B考查生活常识。青少年时期孩子们的感情非常强烈，但容易受到伤害，故选B项。
19. C考查词语辨析。青少年经历大喜或大悲时更能够体现他们感情的强烈。
20. A考查行文逻辑。前面提到了青少年的状况，这里又说他们对成年人的看法，两句之间应属并列关系，所以用and。
第二部分阅读理解训练

The morning for our snowmobiling (雪上汽车) adventure finally arrived, and we set off on the hour-and-a-half drive to the resort. A fresh powder had fallen the night before, and everything was frosted white. We co uldn’t have asked for more perfect conditions. The sun sparkled (闪光) on the snow, and the trails (路线) were
completely empty – not another person or snowmobile in sight. We were thrilled at being the only people for miles around … until we got going.
As we drove through the deserted wilderness (荒野), my excitement became stone-cold fear. I had no idea what I was afraid of, or why I was afraid, but suddenly every turn, every hill, every steep (陡峭的) side of the mountain scared me to death.
I kept picturing us crashing headlong into a tree or falling off the side of a drop.
But after lunch things changed. We were the only humans who had been there since the snowfall. The peaceful place, the incredible beauty of the landscape, and the almost sacred experience of sharing a mountain with the wildlife touched my very core (核心). My mind cleared and quieted and my muscles relaxed.
As we drove the last leg of the run, I began to resent being afraid to drive. Deep down, I wanted to be in charge of the thing that scared me. It made me angry that fear was keeping me from something I really wanted to do. The day was coming to an end, and the resort was only a few miles away. I knew that if I didn’t take my chance now, I would regret it.
I signaled for my husband to pull over. I wanted to drive, although my heart pounded (重击). I stared off slowly and felt the wind in my face. I smiled and sped up a little. I let out a “Yee-haw!” and went full out, taking my husband on the best ride of the day.
We ended the day on that breathless, carefree, and I felt proud of myself –proud of overcoming my fear.

文章描述的是作者突如其来的恐惧感以及最后如何克服的。
1、D。主旨大意题。本文作者描述了终于可以雪上汽车冒险了非常兴奋的心情，但是真正开
始后，作者又被一种莫名的恐惧所笼罩。直到午饭后，周围的幽静美景让作者彻底地放松、清静下来。因此作者把最后一段旅程作为克服自己恐惧的机会，成功后喜悦而自豪，所以D正确。
2、B。推理判断题。根据第一段可确定B正确。根据第二段可排除A；根据第一段最后一句
可排除C；文章中作者只是担心会撞倒树上，所以D错误。
3、A。细节理解题。根据第三段可判断A正确。
