You’ve heard that plastic is polluting the oceans — between 4.8 and 12.7 million tonnes enter oceanecosystems every year. But does one plastic straw or cup really make a difference? Artist Benjamin Von Wong wants you to know that it does. He builds massive sculptures out of plastic garbage, forcing viewers to re-examine their relationship to single-use plastic products.
At the beginning of the year, the artist built a piece called “Strawpocalypse,” a pair of 10-foot-tall plastic waves, frozen mid-crash. Made of 168,000 plastic straws collected from several volunteer beach cleanups, the sculpture made its first appearance at the Estella Place shopping center in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.
A. She loves staying with her mother.B. She dislikes outdoor activities.

A few athletes were already stretching their arms, but most of us could barely focus. As I was burning off last night's wrong decision—a big meal, I spotted a poster about a gym's 21-day workout challenge, and I immediately signed up. I always wanted to train for a marathon, so I considered this as my warm-up. Besides, I needed to stop being lazy and this was my chance to make a change.It was easy to promise on paper, but three weeks of recommended exercise routines and diet restrictions wouldn't be easy. I stuck to working out 30 minutes a day, and I didn't disturb my normal routine. Instead, I had to be faced with the tough work of being more creative in my spare time, thus breaking some bad habits.Overcoming weaknesses with willpower was my goal for the next part of the journey. But the difficult part about making a challenge is realizing that “wanting" and “doing" are two very different things. Just like a career, you have to physically work for it rather than just wait for it to happen. But that's hard. Throughout the 21 days, I often told myself that the challenge was meaningless and tried to sabotage myself from exercising. However, finally I overcame that negative thought and kept working out.At the end of the challenge, I learned something even more important: Feeling the results is better than seeing them. I had fewer headaches and more energy, and was simply happier. I even felt a little smarter as I researched which foods were better for my body, and learned how to make healthier meals. I felt a sense of accomplishment, too, because even though I wanted to give up dozens of times, I didn't. I felt my waist got smaller and my arms got stronger, and I no longer felt guilty after having a piece of cake or a drink.24. What was the author's wrong decision?A. Going to the gym early.B. Training for a marathon.C. Eating a lot the previous night.D. Stopping being lazy for a change.25. What is paragraph 2 mainly about?A. Some of the author's bad habits.B. Some ways of the author's killing his spare time.C. The importance of sticking to the normal daily routine.D. The difficulty of the author's keeping on with the workout plan.26. What does the underlined word “sabotage" in paragraph 3 probably mean?A. Prevent.B. Hear.C. Improve.D. Distinguish.27. What did the author learn from the workout challenge?A. Eating healthy food is more important than exercising.B. Overcoming a challenge could bring good feelings to him.C. It's more important to see what he likes than just feel it.D. There was no need to feel guilty about things he disliked to do.CA new study shows that air pollution can cause a huge reduction in our intelligence. The study was a project involving researchers at Peking University in China and Yale University in the United States.The researchers reported that long-term exposure to air pollution can affect a person's mental abilities in two areas: Language and math.The researchers studied about 25,000 people from across China. Between 2010 and 2014, these Chinese men, women and children were given language and math tests. Then researchers compared the test results with measurements of pollution in the air, namely nitrogen dioxide and sulfur dioxide （二氧化硫）.Xi Chen of the Yale School of Public Health led the study. He and his team found that breathing pollutedair can reduce a person's education level by about one year.Chen said that the effect generally is worse for those over 64 years of age, for men and for those with little or no education.“The older persons—they are more affected. And we find, quite amazingly, males are more affected than females. And people working outdoors are more affected than people working indoors.He noted that the youngest people in the study were 10 years old, while the oldest was 90 years old. They came from China's 33 provinces. In his words, the data and facts are convincing and this range of ages and locations across the country provided a real, objective and representative sample.The researchers noted that the effect of air pollution on verbal ability is even more serious as people age, especially among men and the less educated. The researchers also stressed that every country, whether developed, developing or poor, should focus on air pollution orhumans will face a bad situation.28. What is the result of the study?A. Air pollution has a bad effect on people's intelligence.B. Females are more affected by air pollution than males.C. Americans are more affected by air pollution than Chinese.D. People working indoors are actually not affected by air pollution.29. What did Chen say about the study?A. It is doubtful.B. It is extremely unfair.C. It is common and not representative.D. It is relatively objective and persuasive.30. What did the researchers emphasize in the last paragraph?A. The data from the 33 provinces is convincing.B. The whole world should pay attention to air pollution.C. The less educated take more responsibility for air pollution.D. Air pollution's influence on verbal ability is less serious as people age.31. Where is the text most likely taken from?A. A life diary.B. A guidebook.C. A science magazine.D. A biography.DStories are shared in many ways. They are described in books and magazines. They are read around the campfire at night. They are randomly distributed from stand-alone booths. But what else?To revive （复兴）literature in the era of fast news and smartphone addiction, Short Edition, a French publisher of short-form literature, has set up more than 30 story dispensers （分发机）in the USA in the past years to deliver fiction at the push of a button at restaurants, universities and government offices.Francis Ford Coppola, the film director and winemaker, liked the idea so much that he invested in the company and placed a dispenser at his Cafe Zoetrope in San Francisco. Last month public libraries in some other cities announced they would be setting them up, too. There is one on the campus at Penn State. A few can be found in downtown West Palm Beach, Fla. And Short Edition plans to announce more, including at the Los Angeles International Airport.“Everything old is n ew again," said Andrew Nurkin, the director of the Free Library of Philadelphia, which is one of the libraries that set up the dispensers. “We want people to be easily exposed to literature. We want to advance literacy among children and inspire theircreativity.Here's how a dispenser works： It has three buttons on top indicating choices for stories that can be read in one minute, three minutes or five minutes. When a button is pushed, a short story is printed. The stories are free. They are chosen from a computer category of more than 100,000 original submissions by writers whoseworks have been evaluated by Short Edition's judges, and transmitted over a mobile network. Offerings can be tailored to specific interests, like children's fiction or romance. Short Edition gets stories for its category by holding writing contests.Short Edition set up its first booth in 2016 and has 150 machines worldwide. “The idea is to make people happy," said Kristan Leroy, director of Short Edition, “There is too much unhappiness today. ”32. What do we know about the stories sent by dispensers?A. They are expensive.B. They are short in form.C. They can be read on smartphones.D. They are mainly taken from magazine literature.33. Where can you find the popularity of story dispensers in America?A. In paragraph 3.B. In paragraph 4.C. In paragraph 5.D. In paragraph 6.34. Which is the main purpose of setting up the dispensers according to Andrew Nurkin?A. To get rid of people's smartphone addiction.B. To reduce the financial stress of libraries.C. To make people have access to literature.D. To advertise the network literature.35. What is the best title for the text?A. Online Reading: a Virtual TourB. Short Edition, a French PublisherC. Everything Old Will Be Popular AgainD. Taste of Literature, at the Push of a Button七选五（福建省厦门外国语学校2020届高三12月月考）It is sometimes thought that the longing for material goods, the need to buy things, is a relatively modern invention. 36 Trade or shopping is certainly an ancient desire, and existed before our ancestors invented writing, laws, cities or farming, even before they used metal to make tools.Humans are born to trade. 37 Evidence from hunter-gatherers suggests that the exchange of food and other necessary things comes naturally, as well as the ability to keep a record of the credits involved. And once trade begins, the benefits are hard to resist.Ancient local coastal people in northern Australia traded fish hooks, along a chain of trading partners, with people living 400 miles inland, who cut and polished local stone to make axes（斧子）. 38 Finally, both groups of "producers", by concentrating on things they could produce and exchanging them for other things they needed, benefited as a result.Trade in the necessities of life, such as food and simple tools, is not really surprising, considering the link between these basic items and survival. What is surprising, though, is that our taste for unnecessary expensive objects also goes back a long way.In South Africa, 100,000-year-old decorative dyes（染料）have been found in an area where none were produced. 39 Small round pieces of glass 76,000 years old were also found at the same place. The earliest jewellery known to us was not just random findings—they were grouped together in size and had holes like those used for threading onto a necklace.Archaeologists argue that trade prepared the way for the complex societies in which we live today. 40 However, their modern equivalents—fast cars and expensive clothes—hold the same attraction for us as "trade goods" did for people 100,000 years ago.A．And we don't need shops or money to do it.B．These are powerful proofs for cash purchase.C．In fact, its roots go back to the beginning of humanity.D．However, the first trade began from the exchange of objects.E．Modern-day shoppers may not be impressed by ancient glass pieces.F．It is thought that these goods were bought at least 30 kilometres away. G．Every individual along the chain made a profit, even if he produced neither himself.参考答案完形填空36-40 BABDA 41-45ADACD 46-50DBBCB 51-55DCBCD阅读理解21 -23 BDC 24 -27 CDAB 28 -31 ADBC 32-35 BACD七选五36-40 CAGFE。

专题05时文阅读理解-人与动植物1.主题语境—人与自然—孩子都爱玩—大黄蜂似乎也知道同样的事情—大黄蜂成为已知的第一个会玩的昆虫。
重点词汇：set up创办；identify识别；turned out结果是；deal with应对，处理；Kids everywhere love to play. And they know a ball is a perfect thing to play with. Now scientists at London’s Queen Mary University report that bumblebees seem to know the same thing, making bumblebees the first insects known to play.When people talk about “play”, they’re describing an animal doing something that doesn’t really seem to help it. They’re not doing the action to get food or shelter or another similar “reward”. Play usually happens when a creature is relaxed and is often repeated.However, scientists think many animals and birds’ playing is a kind of training for things they’ll have to deal with in later life. But before this, there were no reports of insects playing.Scientists at Dr. Chittka’s lab, carried out an experiment. First, they tagged (贴标签) 45 young bumblebees, both male and female, between 1 and 23 days old. The tags made the bees easier to identify and follow.The scientists set up a clear pathway from the bumblebees’ nest to a feeding area. On either side of the open pathway, the researchers placed small colored wooden balls. On one side of the path, the balls were attached and couldn’t move. On the other side, the balls could roll around. It turned out that the bumblebees weren’t interested in the unmovable balls, but they made lots of visits to the rolling balls.Grabbing the balls with their legs, the bees would flap (拍打) their wings to pull on the balls, causing them to roll. The 45 tagged bumblebees rolled balls 910 times during the experiment. Though some only did it once, others did it a lot. The younger bumblebees spent more time rolling balls. Males seemed more likely to play than females.“It’s not clear why the bees roll the balls or whether they enjoy it But the experiment raises important questions about how the insects’ minds work and whether they have feelings. With further research, the future will hold surprises and answers in store for us,” said Dr. Chittka.1．What is the purpose of animals’ play according to scientists?A．To find ideal shelter.B．To receive extra rewards.C．To develop survival skills.D．To get their fellows’ attention.2．What did Dr. Chittka’s experiment focus on?A．Bu mblebees’ categories.B．Bumblebees’ habitats.C．Bumblebees’ intelligence.D．Bumblebees’ behavior.3．What was the result of the experiment?A．Younger male bumblebees preferred to roll the balls.B．Bumblebees possessed different wing beat frequency.C．Bumblebees could distinguish balls of different colors.D．A specially-built pathway helped bumblebees find food.4．What is Dr. Chittka’s attitude to their future research?A．Uncertain. B．Doubtful. C．Optimistic. D．Critical.【答案】1．C 2．D 3．A 4．C【导语】这是一篇说明文。
福建省2021届高考英语复习记叙文阅读理解训练5(含答案解析)
福建省英语高考复习记叙文阅读理解训练5（含答案解析）1Imagine someone who has spent the majority of their life sitting with a sign on the side of the road and that very person giving someone their last 20 dollars. That’s exactly what Marine Corps veteran (退伍军人）Johnny Bobbitt，34，did in October in Philadelphia.Bobbitt served in the U.S. Marine Corps and worked as a paramedic (医务辅助人员）in Vance County, N. C. before he became homeless. Nobody knew how he got to where he was because he was discreet about that.One night in October, Bobbitt was sitting roadside with a sign in Philadelphia as usual, when Kate McClure of Florence Township, N. J. was driving home down Interstate 95 and ran out of gas. Scared and nervous, she got out of the car to head to the nearest gas station. As McClure was heading to the nearest gas station, she ran into Bobbitt and he told her to get back in the vehicle and lock the door. Minutes later, he appeared with a red gas can. He’d used his last $20 to buy her gas.After that unexpected meeting, McClure and her boyfriend, Mark D'Amico, who both live in New Jersey, visited Bobbitt several times to deliver gift cards, cash, snacks and toiletries. They then decided to create a fund raising page so he wouldn't have to spend the holidays sleeping on the street.McClure started the GoFundMe page on November 10. With the page, the couple hoped to raise $10,000, enough money for his rent, a reliable vehicle and up to six months ’ expenses. Bobbitt's story ran in a local paper. By November 15，more than 10,000 local people had made donations through the GoFundMe page and more than $300,000 had been raised.On Thanksgiving，Bobbitt was resting in a hotel，his feet up on the bed，drawing up a grand plan for his new life, thanks to several thousand dollars raised to repay him for a good deed.1. What does the underlined word “discreet” in paragraph 2 most probably mean?A.Doubtful.B. Cautious.C.Guilty.D. Optimistic.2. McClure met Bobbitt when she .A.couldn't find a gas stationB.got to the way homeC.couldn't unlock her carD.was in search of gas3. It can be known from the text that .A. Bobbitt’s story obtained wide attentionB. Bobbitt became world-famous overnightC. the GoFundMe page collected over $400,000 for BobbittD. the GoFundMe page was started to help people like Bobbitt4. What is the best title for the text?A. A Homeless Veteran Paid Kindness ForwardB. A Homeless Veteran Had a Generous HeartC. A Homeless Veteran’s Kindness Paid OffD.A Small Kindness Made a Big Difference答案:1-4 BDAC2Gitanjali Rao, Colorado teenager who invented mobile device to test for lead（铅）in drinking water, was Time’s Kid of the Year for 2020. The magazine announced the award on Thursday, citing Rao’s ability to apply scientific ideas to real-world problems-and her desire to motivate other kids to take up their own causes.It was just the latest recognition for Rao, 15, who was named last year to the Forbes 30 Under 30 list. She won praise in 2017 after she responded to the water crisis in Flint，Michigan，by creating a device named Tehys, using carbon nanotube sensors to detect（探测）lead in water. The Lone Tree, Colo., native was named America’s Top Young Scientist when she was in the seventh grade. She went on to cooperate with scientists in the water industry to try to get the device on the market.More recently, Rao has developed a phone and Web tool named Kindly, which uses artificial intelligence technology to detect possible early signs of cyberbullying（网络欺凌）.“You type in a word or phrase, and it’ s able to pick it up if it’s bullying, and it gives you the choice to edit it or send it the way it is,” Rao told Time. “The goal is not to punish people. As a teenager I know teenagers tend to become very angry sometimes. Instead, it gives you the chance to rethink what you’re saying so that you know what to do next time around.”Rao was chosen in part because of the way she has followed up her technical work with efforts to get other young people to work on solving the problems they see.“I don’t look like your typical scientist. Everything I see on TV is that it’s an older, usually white man as a scientist，” she told Time. “My goal has really shifted，not only from creating my own devices to solve the world’s problems, but inspiring others to do the same as well. So I really want to put out that message: If I can do it, you can do it, and anyone can do it.”5.What made Gitaniali Rao Time’s Kid of the Year for 2020?A. Her desire to guide other kids.B. Her invention of testing lead in water.C. Her idea of making devices commercial.D. Her excellent personal ability and desire to encourage other children.6. What is the function of Rao’s Web tool “Kindly”?A. To make sure the security of the network.B. To punish teenagers’ wrong thoughts.C. To use artificial intelligence technology.D. To type a word or phrase on the Internet.7.Why did Rao say “anyone can do it” in the last paragraph?A. A white man can work as a scientist.B. We ought to set a goal at an early age.C. We are supposed to inspire others to do the same.D. Everybody may succeed in solving world’s problems.8. In which section of newspaper may this text appear？A. Health.B. Science.C. PeopleD.

Today, most records of biodiversity are often in the form of photos, videos, and other digital records. Though they are useful for detecting shifts in the number and variety of species in an area, a new Stanford study has found that this type of record is not perfect.“With the rise of technology it is easy for people to make observation s of different species with the aid of a mobile application,” said Barnabas Daru, who is lead author of the study and assistant professor of biology in the Stanford School of Humanities and Sciences. “These observations now outnumber the primary data that comes from physical specimens(标本), and since we are increasingly using observational data to investigate how species are responding to global change, I wanted to know: Are they usable?”Using a global dataset of 1.9 billion records of plants, insects, birds, and animals, Daru and his team tested how well these data represent actual global biodiversity patterns.“We were particularly interested in exploring the aspects of sampling that tend to bias (使有偏差) data, like the greater likelihood of a citizen scientist to take a picture of a flowering plant instead of the grass right next to it,” said Daru.Their study revealed that the large number of observation-only records did not lead to better global coverage. Moreover, these data are biased and favor certain regions, time periods, and species. This makes sense because the people who get observational biodiversity data on mobile devices are often citizen scientists recording their encounters with species in areas nearby. These data are also biased toward certain species with attractive or eye-catching features.What can we do with the imperfect datasets of biodiversity?“Quite a lot,” Daru explained. “Biodiversity apps can use our study results to inform users of oversampled areas and lead them to places – and even species – that are not w ell-sampled. To improve the quality of observational data, biodiversity apps can also encourage users to have an expert confirm the identification of their uploaded image.”32. What do we know about the records of species collected now?A. They are becoming outdated.B. They are mostly in electronic form.C. They are limited in number.D. They are used for public exhibition.33. What does Daru’s study focus on?A. Threatened species.B. Physical specimens.C. Observational data.D. Mobile applications.34. What has led to the biases according to the study?A. Mistakes in data analysis.B. Poor quality of uploaded pictures.C. Improper way of sampling.D. Unreliable data collection devices.35. What is Daru’s suggestion for biodiversity apps?A. Review data from certain areas.B. Hire experts to check the records.C. Confirm the identity of the users.D. Give guidance to citizen scientists.二答案解析三专家评价考查关键能力，促进思维品质发展2024年高考英语全国卷继续加强内容和形式创新，优化试题设问角度和方式，增强试题的开放性和灵活性，引导学生进行独立思考和判断，培养逻辑思维能力、批判思维能力和创新思维能力。
高考英语阅读专项练习附参考答案
高考英语阅读专项练习附参考答案高考英语阅读专项练习1：Sometimes youll hear people say that you cant love others until you love yourself.Sometimes youll hear people say that you cant expect someone else to love you until you love yourself.Either way, youve got to love yourself first and this can be tricky.Sure we all know that were the apple of our parents eyes, and that our Grandmas think were great talents and our Uncle Roberts think that we will go to the Olympics.but sometimes its a lot harder to think such nice thoughts about ourselves.If you find that believing in yourself is a challenge.it is time you build a positive self-image and learn to love yourself.Self-image is your own minds picture of yourself.This image includes the way you look, the way you act, the way you talk and the way you think.Interestingly, our self-images are often quite different from the images others hold about US.Unfortunately, most of these images are more negative than they should be.Thus changing the way you think about yourself is the key to changing your self-image and your whole world.The best way to defeat a passive self-image is to step back and decide to stress your successes.That is, make a list if you need to, but write down all of the great things you do every day.Dont allow doubts to occur in it.It very well might be that you are experiencing a negative self-image because you cant move past one flaw or weakness that you see about yourself.Well, roll up your sleeves and make a change of it as your primary task.If you think youre silly because you arent good at math, find a tutor.If you think youre weak because you cant run a mile, get to the track and practice.If you think youre dull because you dont wear the latest trends, buy a few new clothes.But remember, just because you think it doesnt mean its true.The best way to get rid of a negative serf-image is to realize that your image is far from objective, and to actively convince yourself of your positive qualities.Changing the way you think and working on those you need to improve will go a long way towards promoting a positive self-image.When you can pat(拍) yourself on the back, youll know youre well on your way.Good luck!41.You need to build a positive self-image when you _________.A.dare to challenge yourselfB.feel it hard to change yourselfC.are unconfident about yourselfD.have a high opinion of yourself42.According to the passage, our serf-images _________.A.have positive effectsB.are probably untrueC.are often changeableD.have different functions43.How should you change your serf-image according to the passage?A.To keep a different image of others.B.To make your life successful.C.To understand your own world.D.To change the way you think.44.What is the passage mainly about?A.How to prepare for your success.B.How to face challenges in your life.C.How to build a positive self-image.D.How to develop your good qualities.45.Who are the intended readers of the passage?A.Parents.B.Adolescents.cators.D.People in general.阅读专项练习参考答案：41—45CBDCB高考英语阅读专项练习2：What should you think about when trying to find your career? You are probably better at some school subjects than others. These may show strengths that you can use in your work. A boy who is good at mathematics can use that in an engineering career. A girl who spells well and likes English may be good at office work. So it is important to know the subjects you do well in at school. On the other hand, you may not have any specially strong subjects but your records show a general satisfactory standard. Although not all subjects can be used directly in a job, they may have indirect value. A knowledge of history is not required for most jobs but if history is one of your good subjects you will have learned to remember facts and details. This is an ability that can be useful in many jobs.Your school may have taught you skills, such as typing or technical drawing, which you can use in your work. You may be good at metalwork or cookery and look for a job where you can improve these skills. If you havehad a part-time job on Saturdays or in the summer, think what you gained from it. If nothing else, you may have learned how to get to work on time, to follow instructions and to get on with older workers. You may have learned to give correct change in a shop, for example. Just as important, you may become interested in a particular industry or career you see from the inside in a part-time job.Facing your weak points is also part of knowing yourself. You may be all thumbs when you handle tools; perhaps you are a poor speller or cannot add up a column of figures. It is better to face any weakness than to pretend they do not exist. Your school record, for instance, may not be too good, yet it is an important part of your background. You should not be apologetic about it but instead recognize that you will have a chance of a fresh start at work.46. We can infer from the first paragraph that ________.learning better at school shows power in your jobthe better you are at school subjects, the more helpful they are in your career.learning each subject well is an ability in many jobs.we should think about how to find our career47.

高考英语阅读类训练(5)
定额市鞍钢阳光实验学校北京市2016高考英语阅读类训练（5）阅读下列四篇短文，从每小题后所给的A,B,C或D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
I needed to buy a digital camera, one that was simply good at taking good snaps(快照), maybe occasionally for magazines. Being the cautious type, I fancied a reliable brand. So I went on the net, spent 15 minutes reading product reviews on good websites, wrote down the names of three top recommendations and headed for my nearest big friendly camera store. There in the cupboard was one of the cameras on my list. And it was on special offer. Oh joy. I pointed at it and asked an assistant, “Can I have one of those?” He looked perturbed (不安). “Do you want to try it first?” he said. It didn’t quite sound like a question. “Do I need to? “ I replied. “There’s nothing wrong with it? “ This made him look a bit insulted and I started to feel bad. “No, no, But you should try it,” he said encouragingly. “Compare it with the others.”I looked across at the others: shelves of similar cameras placed along the wall, offering a wide range of slightly different prices and discounts, with each company selling a range of models based a round the same basic box. With so many models to choose from, it seemed that I would have to spend hours weighing X against Y, always trying to take Z and possibly R into account at the same time. But when I had finished, I would still have only the same two certainties that I had entered the store with: first, soon after I carried my new camera out of the shop, it would be worth half what I paid for it; and second, my wonderful camera would very quickly be replaced by a new model.But something in the human soul whispers that you can beat these traps by making the right choice, the clever choice, the wise choice. In the end, I agreed to try the model I had chosen. The assistant seemed a sincere man. So I let him take out my chosen camera from the cupboard, show how it took excellent pictures of my fellow shoppers. . . and when he started to introduce the special features, I interrupted to ask whether I needed to buy a carry-case and a memory card as well. Why do we think that new options (选择) still offer us anything new? Perhaps it is because they offer an opportunity to avoid facing the foot that our real choices in this culture are far more limited than we would like to imagine.1. The shop assistant insisted that the writer should .A. try the camera to see if there was anything wrong with itB. compare the camera he had chosen with the othersC. get more information about different companiesD. trust him and stop asking questions2. What does the writer mean by“it would be worth half what I paid for it” (Paragraph 2)?A. He should get a 50% discount.B. The price of the camera was unreasonably high.C. The quality of the camera was not good.D. The camera would soon fall in value.3. The writer decided to try the model he had chosen because he .A. knew very little about itB. didn’t trust the shop assistantC. wanted to make sure the one he chose would be the bestD. had a special interest in taking pictures of his fellow shoppers4. It can be inferred from the passage that in the writer’s opinion, .A. people waste too much money on camerasB. cameras have become an important part of our daily lifeC. we don’t actually need so many choices when buying a productD. famous companies care more about profit than quality【参考答案】1—4、 BDCC阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。
高考英语大题突破复习：专题05 阅读理解七选五(新高考专用)(原卷版)
专题05 阅读理解七选五距离高考还有一段时间，不少有经验的老师都会提醒考生，愈是临近高考，能否咬紧牙关、学会自我调节，态度是否主动积极，安排是否科学合理，能不能保持良好的心态、以饱满的情绪迎接挑战，其效果往往大不一样。
以下是本人从事10多年教学经验总结出的以下学习资料，希望可以帮助大家提高答题的正确率，希望对你有所帮助，有志者事竟成！养成良好的答题习惯，是决定高考英语成败的决定性因素之一。
做题前，要认真阅读题目要求、题干和选项，并对答案内容作出合理预测;答题时，切忌跟着感觉走，最好按照题目序号来做，不会的或存在疑问的，要做好标记，要善于发现，找到题目的题眼所在，规范答题，书写工整;答题完毕时，要认真检查，查漏补缺，纠正错误。
总之，在最后的复习阶段，学生们不要加大练习量。
在这个时候，学生要尽快找到适合自己的答题方式，最重要的是以平常心去面对考试。
英语最后的复习要树立信心，考试的时候遇到难题要想“别人也难”，遇到容易的则要想“细心审题”。
越到最后，考生越要回归基础，单词最好再梳理一遍，这样有利于提高阅读理解的效率。
另附高考复习方法和考前30天冲刺复习方法。
题型简介七选五作为高考英语全国卷中的一道必考和重点题型，考查以说明文为主，内容、主题多是社会生活和文化科技；题型以段中句为主，段首句和段尾句为辅。
主要考查考生的逻辑能力,包括整篇语言逻辑和句与句之间上下文逻辑关系的判断;备选答案中含有两个干扰选项,这两个干扰选项在表面上看往往与正确答案有一定的相关性,这给考生解题带来很大的困难；文章篇幅较长，解题时间有限，一旦出错，往往一错错一串，是特别容易丢分的题型。
与完形填空相比,补全短文空缺的是5个句子，无法从句子层面寻找线索，所以分析语篇结构和理清空格与上下文之间的逻辑关系显得异常重要。
可以说，此题型是对语言能力和阅读理解能力的综合测试，因此在要求上远远高于这两种题型。
考生有必要对这类题型的答题思路多练习，以提高自己在这个部分的应试能力。

Years later, when I stood in the kitchen of my new house, thinking how I wanted to make my 8 Christmas there special and memorable, I 9 remembered the women's visit.

Finally the 16 they had been waiting for came as I called out, "One, two, three. Open your presents!" As the children opened their packages, their faces beamed and their bright smiles 17 up the room.
