2020年新高考高三英语阅读专练（含答案精析）
2020年新高考高三英语阅读专练（含答案精析）AMumbai’s chefs were quick to spot the latest threat facing India’s economy. As they searched for ingredients in Crawford market, where vendors sell fruit, vegetables and other kitchen staples, they began hearing prices quoted not per kilogram, but per quarter-kilo—a way attempting to mask price increases. Returning from a recent shopping activity, one chef checked off the items rising sharply in price: tomatoes, cabbages, fish, spices—almost every ingredient, in fact, in the Indian cookbook.The vendors had some plausible excuses. The weather has been changeable, and delivery systems unreliable. But although an increase in inflation(通货膨胀) was widely foreseen, the severity of it was not. Consumer prices rose by over 7.3% in December, compared with a year earlier, the biggest jump since July 2014.Various difficulties will complicate the government’s efforts to fight an economic slowdown. India’s GDP grew by only 4.5% in the third quarter compared with a year earlier. That figure would have been as low as 3.1% were it not for a hurried government-spending activity. But any increase in demand could prompt an offsetting response from the Reserve Bank of India (RBI), the central bank. It may choose to extended stagnation(停滞) so as to avoid the uglier scenery of stagflation(滞胀).Stagflation usually begins with a setback to supply, such as India’s unseasonal rains. These misfortunes both lower output and lift costs. But once prices have increased sufficiently to reflect the short supply, they should in principle stop rising. Some economists expect inflation to begin falling as soon as February. After all, core inflation, which excludes food and fuel prices, remains below 4%.The problem is that before inflation disappears, Indians may start believing it will stay, making it more likely to persist. The RBI’s inflation-targeting framework, which was adopted in 2015, was supposed to fight this tendency. But the framework has “yet to be fully tested”, according to a recent lecture by Raghuram, the former RBI governor who introduced it.1. What is the main purpose of Paragraph 1?A. To give advice on how to buy cheap ingredients.B. To make an explanation for price increases.C. To lead to the topic by presenting an example.D. To emphasize the hard life of Indian chefs.2. What’s the possible GDP growth rate of India without the government spending?A. 4.5%.B. 7.3%.C. 3.1%.D. 4%.3. Which of the following is NOT true about inflation -targeting framework?A. This framework was believed to control the inflation.B. This framework has been tested to be effective.C. This framework was introduced by the former RBI governor.D. This framework was adopted in 2015.【答案】1～3 CCB【解析】本文是一篇说明文，说明印度国内的通货膨胀问题。

高考英语阅读理解专题训练AThe Gunpowder Plot was a conspiracy(阴谋) to kill King James Ⅰ，as well as the members of the House of Lords and Commons at the re-opening of Parliament.It was designed by a group of Catholics in protest against the anti-Catholic laws that were being introduced by the king.Robert Catesby was the leader of the group.It was he and his cousin，Thomas Wintour，and two other friends，Thomas Percy and John Wright，who formed the center of the group.They were joined by nine more men；among them was Guy Fawkes，from the city of York in the north of England.Fawkes found a store room directly under the House of Lords and rented it out under the false name of John Johnson.The conspirators stored thirty-six barrels of gunpowder there，and Fawkes，who was an explosives expert，was to light the fuses(引信) on 5th November 1605.The plot failed because one of the conspirators，Francis Tresham，sent a letter to his relative，who was a member of the House of Lords.The letter warned him not to attend the opening ceremony of Parliament.The letter was passed on to the authorities，who took action.Guy Fawkes was found in the cellar on the night of 4th November with the thirty-six barrels and a number of fuses.He was imprisoned and ill-treated，eventually giving away the names of the conspirators.Soldiers of the king surrounded Holbeach House，in the Midlands，where they knew the conspirators to be hiding.In the fight that followed，four of them were shot dead，including Catesby and Percy，who were actually killed by the same bullet.The others were imprisoned and hanged along with Guy Fawkes on 31st January 1606.These days，on 5th November，children all over Britain celebrate Guy Fawkes Night by building huge bonfires and lighting fireworks.It’s a family tradition and an occasion to eat potatoes baked by the flames.There is always a “guy”on top of the fire，a model of Guy Fawkes，dressed in the clothes of the 17th century.1．Francis Tresham wrote the letter to his relative to .A．warn him of the danger of being killedB．reveal the names of the conspiratorsC．protect the House of LordsD．report the plot to the authorities答案 A解析细节理解题。
