2019届高考英语二轮增分策略:第二部分-主旨大意题(含解析)

考纲解读高中英语教学大纲明确规定“侧重提高阅读能力”,这为我们的备考指明了方向。

分析近几年的高考英语试题,我们不难看出,阅读理解是高考试题中难度最大,区分度最高的题型,自始至终占据着主导地位.阅读理解能力属于语言的领会技能,它不仅考查对语篇的整体把握能力,而且考查快速捕捉信息、准确理解特定细节以及复杂句子的能力。

不仅要准确理解文章表层的意思,还要通过表层去推理、判断。

除此之外,还涉及非语言因素,如:对所学语言国家的社会和文化背景知识的掌握、生活常识、逻辑知识和语言修养等。

考情分析纵观近几年各地英语试卷,阅读理解题有如下特点:1.突出语用,体裁多样,题材丰富阅读理解题体裁分布包括记叙文、说明文、应用文和议论文等,涉及的话题新颖广泛,体现了其多样化、现代化和生活化的特点,综合反映了政治、经济、文化和生活的各个方面,具有鲜明的英语语言文化特点,体现了“语言是文化的载体”这一重要理念。

2.信息密集,句子优美,结构复杂阅读理解题每篇都是以简约的语言负载高含量的信息,要求准确迅速地从特定的语篇中有目的地获取信息。

阅读理解文章的句子原汁原味、语言地道、纯正优美,而且篇章结构和句子结构都有一定的难度。

各篇或在时间顺序上,或在空间顺序上,或在逻辑推理上,均使用了较高级的组篇手段。

结构复杂的长句、倒装句、省略句以及插入语等也随处可见。

3.细节为主,推理随后,主旨突出阅读理解题型分布合理,以细节理解题和推理判断题为主,主旨大意题几乎每年都考。

各个题型的分布已逐步成熟且趋于平稳。

阅读理解分为五大题型:主旨大意题、细节理解题、推理判断题、词义猜测题和篇章结构题。

2019届二轮复习 阅读理解说明文类型(10篇)训练之一((20页word版答案含有解析)

2019届二轮复习阅读理解说明文类型10篇训练之一[一]You can't walk into the office without Rihanna's voice singing “work work work work work work” in your head.And that one line from Lady Gaga's Bad Romance still makes you want to scream.These are commonly known as earworm songs—those sticky tunes that continue to play in your head.A recent study finds that more than 90% of adults report hearing earworm songs on a weekly basis.Fortunately,most people report earworm songs as pleasant.But others find them annoying or even maddening.“Some people are troubled by them to the point that it disturbs life,” says Elizabeth Hellmuth Margulis,a professor at the University of Arkansas who has studied earworm songs.Margulis says earworm songs tend to have some predictable characteristics.For one thing,they tend to small parts of a song—not the whole track.And “the songs you've heard recently also have the most possibility to get stuck in your memory,” she says.But sometimes something strange and unpredictable can also start a track paying in your head.“Once I was at the doctor's office and saw a poster of a man who I thought looked like Gaston—a character from Beauty and the Beast,” Margulis recalls.A couple minutes passed,and she realized she couldn't get Be Our Guest,the song in the movie,out of her head,even though she hadn't thought of the tune in years.In that instance,she was able to identify her earworm's trigger:the Gaston­looking man in the poster.“But the connections can be really unclear,” she says.Margulis points out that,in all of human history,recorded music is a very new phenomenon.She says some have inferred that earworm songs are also new—the unintended consequence of being able to hear the same song played everywhere in the same way over and over again.So far,the convincingexplanation for why human beings experience earworm songs remains a mystery.But there are some well­established ways to cast off the earworm songs.“Finding a mentally demanding task and putting your mind on it usually shifts attention away from internal music.People tend to get earworms when performing tasks that don't require their full attention—stuff like doing the dishes,” Margulis says.Chewing gum can also help.When a song is stuck in our heads,it's almost like we're singing along with it.If you make your mouth do something else—chewing gum,eating a meal or talking with a friend—that can kick out the earworm.You could also face your enemy.By listening to the full track that includes the passage stuck in your head,you may find “closure” and relief.28.Which of the following is most likely to be an earworm song?A.A song made up of simple words.B.A song heard frequently these days.C.A song sung by a most famous singer.D.A song learned during one's childhood.29.What does t he underlined word “trigger” in Paragraph 4 mean?A.Type. B.Tune.C.Cause. D.Characteristic.30.We can infer that earworm songs may .A.result from modern technologyB.be experienced over mealsC.help regain lost memoriesD.hurt one's hearing31.What is mainly talked about in the last three paragraphs?A.Why we hear earworm songs.B.Where to find earworm songs.C.When we hear earworm songs.D.How to get over earworm songs.【语篇解读】耳朵虫歌曲,即歌曲的某个片段不由自主地反复在脑子里出现且不受控制的现象。

2019届二轮复习阅读理解专题说明文话题10篇训练之二十三[一]OSLO, Norway - It was one of the toughest fights Jorun Lyngstad had experienced during her time as a Norwegian police officer. A wood grouse (猎鸟), Europe's biggest game bird, attacked Lyngstad during a Wednesday bike ride in the woods, ramming(夯) the off-duty officer from the side and sending her flying through the air, local media reported."I guess this forceful bird may have difficult relationships with the law," Lyngstad, 37, told the newspaper Romsdals Budstikke.With her foot stuck in one of the pedals(脚蹬), Lyngstad had to use her bike as a protection as she tried to fight off the strong bird, which kept coming at her."It wouldn't give up," Lyngstad said. "It was a harder fight than I usually see when I'm on duty."Lyngstad was finally able to force the attacker's head under the bike's front wheel, after which the bird flew back into the woods. Lyngstad suffered only a little in her side where the wood grouse rammed her."If I had needed to strike it again, I would have struck to kill," she said.A wood grouse, whose second name is capercaillie, can be up to three feet tall, and weigh up to nine pounds.Lyngstad, who was wearing a bright yellow vest during the bike ride, said she had no idea what caused the bird to attack.1.

HomeworkChildren as young as ten are becoming dependent on social media for their sense of self-worth, a major study warned.It found many youngsters (少年) now measure their status by how much public approval they get online, often through “like”. Some change their behavior in real life to improve their image on the web.The report into youngsters aged from 8 to 12 was carried out by Children’s Commissioner(专员) Anne Longfield. She said social media firms were exposing children to major emotional risks, with some youngsters starting secondary school ill-equipped to cope with the tremendous pressure they faced online.Some social apps were popular among the children even though they supposedly require users to be at least 13.The youngsters admitted planning trips around potential photo-opportunities and then messaging friends—and friends of friends —to demand “likes” for th eir online posts. The report found that youngsters felt their friendships could be at risk if they did not respond to social media posts quickly, and around the clock. Children aged 8 to 10 were “starting to feel happy” when others liked their posts. However, those in the 10 to 12 age group were “concerned with how many people like their posts”, suggesting a “need” for social recognition that gets stronger the older they become.Miss Longfield warned that a generation of children risked growing up “worried about their appearance and image as a result of the unrealistic lifestyles they follow on platforms, and increasingly anxious about switching off due to the constant demands of social media.”She said: “Children are using social media with family and friends and to play games when they are in primary school. But what starts as fun usage of apps turns into tremendous pressure in real social media interaction at secondary school.”As their world expanded, she said, children compared themselves to others online in a way that was “hugely damaging in terms of their self-identity, in terms of their confidence, but also in terms of their ability to develop themselves”.Miss Longfield added: “Then there is this push to connect—if you go offline, will you miss something, will you miss out, will you show that you don’t care about those people you are following, all of those come together in a huge way at once.”“For children it is very, very difficult to cope with emotionally.”The Children’s Commissioner for England’s study—life in Likes—found that children as young as 8 were using social media platforms largely for play.However, the research—involving eight groups of 32 children aged 8 to 12—suggested that as they headed toward their teens, they became increasingly anxious online.By the time they started secondary school—at age 11—children were already far more aware of their image online and felt under huge pressure to ensure their posts were popular, the report found.However, they still did not know how to cope with mean-spirited jokes, or the sense of incompetence they might feel if they compared themselves to celebrities(名人) or more brilliant friends online. The report said they also faced pressure to respond to messages at all hours of the day—especially at secondary school when more youngsters have mobile phones.The Children’s Commissioner said schools and parents must now do more to preparechildren for the emotional minefield(雷区) they faced online. And she said social media companies must also "take more responsibility". They should either monitor their websites better so that children do not sign up too early, or they should adjust their websites to the needs of younger users.Javed Khan, of children’s charity Bamardo’s, said: “It’s vital that new compulsory age- appropriate relationship and sex education lessons in England should help equip children to deal with the growing demands of social media.”“It’s also hugely important for parents to know which apps their children are using.”1. Why did some secondary school students feel too much pressure?A. They were not provided with adequate equipment.B. They were not well prepared for emotional risks.C. They were required to give quick responses.D. They were prevented from using mobile phones.2. Some social app companies were to blame because ________.A. they didn’t adequately check their users’ registrationB. they organized photo trips to attract more youngstersC. they encouraged youngsters to post more photosD. they didn’t stop youngsters from staying up late3. Children’s comparing themselves to others online may lead to ________.A. less friendliness to each otherB. lower self-identity and confidenceC. an increase in online cheatingD. a stronger desire to stay online4. According to Life in Likes, as children grew, they became more anxious to ________.A. circulate their posts quicklyB. know the qualities of their postsC. use mobile phones for playD. get more public approval5. What should parents do to solve the problem?A. Communicate more with secondary schools.B. Urge media companies to create safer apps.C. Keep track of children’s use of social media.D. Forbid their children from visiting the web.6. What does the passage mainly talk about?A. The influence of social media on children.B. The importance of social media to children.C. The problem in building a healthy relationship.D. The measure to reduce risks from social media.。

专题二阅读七选五训练1 说明文(Ⅰ)A(2019·厦门外国语学校适应性考试)Being Left-handed in a Right-handed WorldThe world is designed for right-handed people,but why does a tenth of the population prefer the left? 1The answer to it remains a bit of a mystery.Since scientists have noticed that left-handedness tends to run in families,it's assumed that left-handedness has a genetic(基因的) component to it.2 In fact,identical twins,who share the same genes,can sometimes prefer to use different hands.There are also plenty of theories on what else might determine which hand you write with,but many experts believe that it's kind of random.Historically,the left side and left-handedness have been considered a negative thing by many cultures. 3 In some areas,the left hand became known as the “unclean”hand.In many religions,the right hand of God is the favored hand.For example,Jesus sits at God's right side.God's left hand,however,is the hand of judgement.Various activities and experiences become rude or even signs of bad luck when the left hand becomes involved.In some parts of Scotland,it is considered bad luck to meet a left-handed person at the start of a journey. 4 A person giving directions will put their left hand behind them and even physically try to point with their right hand if necessary.In some Asian countries,eating with the left hand is considered impolite.5 People come to realize that left-handedness is natural.People even noticed that many famous people are left-handed,including Benjamin Franklin,Leonardo Da Vinci,and Charlie Chaplin.Some researchers find out that lefties are more creative and can deal with abstract thinking better.The left-handedness is more easily adaptable to the right-handed world as well.Being left-handed is no longer a sad story now; instead,it is a wonderful gift or maybe it is something you should take pride in.A. In other words,left-handers are born that way.B.Left-handedness used to be regarded as a disability.C.The unfavorable associations of the use of the left hand among cultures are varied.D.Why do they prefer to use their left hand rather than their right hand for routine activities?E.Why do some parents force their left-handed children to become right-handed whenwriting?F.In Ghana,pointing,gesturing,giving or receiving items with the left hand is considered rude.G.Fortunately,nowadays most societies and cultures no longer reject left-handedness like before.本文是一篇说明文,文章主要介绍了人们使用左手的原因,过去对左撇子的误解以及现如今人们不再像以前那样拒绝左撇子了。

Try to make them tricky._____________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________Reading materialsAOur cities have never been denser, taller, or busier than they are now, and with that, comes the constant battle for land. But if we look at aerial images of any city center, we can quickly spot plenty of unused space—the rooftops.So what can we use this precious resource for? In a growing number of high-density cities, some of it is dedicated to recreation—everything from bars and pools, to soccer pitches and running tracks can now be found atop skyscrapers. But when a rooftop offers access to sunlight, there are two more obvious candidates for its use—agriculture and solar power.Green roofs have been growing in popularity for more than a decade, and in some cases, growing in scale too. Green roofs can provide a habitat for birds and insects in an otherwise hostile environment.Cities can be several degrees warmer than the surrounding countryside. Green roofs come with the added benefit of mitigating the dreaded urban heat island effect. Trees and green spaces can absorb shortwave radiation, and use it to evaporate water from their leaves—a kind of ‘double cooling’ effect.With food security and urban nutrition ever-higher on the agenda for the United Nations, there’s also a worldwide movement of using green roofs for hyper-local food production. In regions with suitable climates, hundreds of different vegetables, fruits, and salad leaves can be grown on rooftops.But what about solar power? With so many cities now stopping using fossil fuels, and the costs of solar panels dropping dramatically, PV systems have become the ‘go to’option for generating distributed power in built-up areas. And, even with standard commercial panels, the energy gains are dramatic. It is estimated that rooftop PV systems could generate almost 40% of electricity demands nationwide.There’s no doubt that in both cases, a network of ‘productive rooftops’ could benefit the local community by supplying a portion of a necessary resource—either food or electricity—while also reducing their environmental burden. But is one better than the other?This was the question posed by researchers from MIT and the University of Lisbon in a recent paper in the journal Cities. Focusing on the rooftops of a mixed-use neighborhood in Lisbon, they carried out a Cost-Benefit Analysis. Starting with existing data on everything from installation costs and resources used, to carbon footprint and yield, they modelled the impact that each installation would have on the local community over a period of 50 years.And by looking at it that way, they concluded that for Lisbon, the use of rooftops for food production could yield significantly higher local value than solar PV energy generation. Of course, this is very site-specific. There is no one-size-fits-all solution to make cities more sustainable, and anyone who tells you otherwise is massively over-simplifying a complex issue. Now, all I hope is that some of those decision makers start using it.1. According to the passage, green roofs don’t make a difference to ______.A. medicineB. agricultureC. electricityD. ecology2. What does the underlined sentence mean in the last paragraph?A. Lisbon is the perfect targeted city for researchers.B. In another city, the opposite conclusion can be drawn.C. The conclusion about Lisbon can apply to all other cities.D. It doesn’t make sense to install rooftop PV systems in Lisbon.3. The author writes this article in order to ______.A. instruct decision makers what to doB. inform us of the rise of urban rooftopsC. predict two fields where we can use rooftopsD. persuade us to make cities more sustainableBTens of thousands of young in Britain who are struggling with their mental health are seeking help online for problems such as anxiety, self-harm, and depression.Soaring numbers of under-18s are turning to apps, online counselling and “mood diaries” to help them manage and recover from conditions that have left them feeling low, isolated and, in some cases, suicidal.A generation of young people are attracted by being able to receive fast, personal care and advice using their phone rather than having to wait up to 18 months to be treated by an NHS mental health professional.The shift comes as ministers prepare themselves for publication on Thursday of the first new figures for 13 years showing how common mental health problems are in the young mainly as a result of the emergence of social media and its use in fueling feelings of inadequacy.The number of under-18s using Kooth, a free online counselling(咨询的) service, has shot up from 20,000 in 2015 to 65,000 last year, and is forecast to rise further to 100,000 this year.One hundred NHS clinical commissioning groups across England, more than half the total, have now commissioned the service. It helps young people suffering from anxiety, low mood, poor self-worth or confidence, self-harm and loneliness.“Young people like the fact they can talk to a counsellor either instantly, or within 10 minutes, for up to an hour in the evenings. They love that immedia cy”, said Aaron Sefi, the research and evaluation director at XenZone, the company behind Kooth.“They also love the anonymity involved, because they can sign up without giving their personal details. Plus, they’re in control, because they are choosing to contact us rather than being told to do so.”In addition, 123,138 people in the UK download. Calm Harm, an NHS-approved app that helps people self-harm less often or not at all, between April 2017 and this month.“Users tell us that Calm Harm helps with suicidal thoughts and intent,” said Dr. Nihara Krause, the consultant clinical psychologist who developed the app. “Currently 92% of our users, who are mainly female and often aged 15-21, say the urge reduced.”Calm Harm is among 18 apps that NHS England has endorsed(支持) to help cope with mental ill-health. They also include Bluelce, which helps young people manage their emotions using a mood diary and automatic routing(自动转接) to emergency help numbers if their urges to self-harm continue.Experts welcomed the trend but warned that online help must complement, not replace, face-to-face appointments with therapists, psychologists and psychiatrists.“Most young people spend much of their time online, and it can feel easier for them to communicate through messaging and online services than face-to-face,” said Tom Madders, campaigns director at Young Minds, which helps people under 26.“Evidence-based mental health apps and online support services can be really beneficial in helping young people to look after their own mental health, develop strategies for coping with difficult emotions, and get accessible information and advice when they need it.”Claire Murdoch, NHS England’s national mental health director, said: “Technology is constantly evolving and young people are usually at the forefront, so it’s no surprise increasing numbers are turning to services like these which can certainly play a part, particularly when backed up by face-to-face support.”The NHS’s forthcoming long-term plan, due next month, will “harn ess(利用) all of the benefits these advancements can bring”, she added.Meanwhile, 37% of the young people referred to NHS child and adolescent mental health services (Camhs) in England last year were refused help, the children’s commissioner has revealed.I n an analysis of Camhs care published on Thursday, the children’s commissioner for England, Anne Longfield, says that despite promises by politicians and NHS bosses to improve access, “a vast gap remains between what is provided and what children need”.While she found improvements in several areas of care, including care for eating disorders, new mothers and under-18s in the criminal justice system, overall “the current rate of progress is still not good enough for the majority of children who require help but are not receiving it”.4. Online help can be characterized as ______.A. instant, confidential and controllableB. attractive, convenient and symbolicC. effective, accessible and controversialD. considerate, authentic and impractical5. Teenagers suffer from mental problems mainly because______.A. they lack professional guidanceB. they tend to be more self-centredC. social media make them feel less confidentD. social media keep them distant from each other6. Calm Harm helps teenagers to ______.A. keep a journal of their moodsB. manage their feeling of stressC. reduce the urge to harm themselvesD. improve their self-identity and confidence7. Experts believe that online help can ______.A. strengthen bonds between teenagers with mental illnessesB. play a role in pushing forward the cutting-edge advanceC. replace face-to-face appointments with professionalsD. serve as a complement to face-to-face appointments8. According to Anne Longfield, NHS child and adolescent mental health services ______.A. have lived up to their expectations and promisesB. are reluctant to help teenagers with mental illnessesC. will complete their ambitious forthcoming long-term planD. need to struggle to meet the increasing needs of teenagers9. What does the passage mainly talk about?A. The popularity of online apps in treating teenagers’ mental illnesses.B. The contrasts between online help services and face-to-face support.C.
