2019届高考英语一轮复习分块专项练习(15)阅读理解主旨大意(一)
2019届高考英语一轮复习学案---高考阅读高频考点理解主旨要义

高考阅读高频考点理解主旨要义(主旨大意题)主旨大意是作者在文章中要表达的主要内容,是全文的核心,是作者在文章中努力通过行文逻辑和各种细节信息来阐明的中心话题,把握主旨大意对正确理解全文具有重要意义。
主旨大意题旨在考查考生通过阅读文章正确获取文章的主旨,推断文章的主题、标题、段落大意、中心思想的能力,即考查考生归纳概括以及辨别主要信息和次要信息的能力。
主旨大意题是阅读理解中的高难度题。
它既考查阅读理解能力,又考查深层次的推理、概括能力。
由上表可知,近三年主旨大意类试题的题量逐年增加,常以标题归纳的形式出现,考查深度、难度不断加大,这表明高考突出了对主旨大意的考查,体现了高考对考生深层次理解文章的要求,考生应给予足够的重视。
该题型有以下特点:1.考查形式涉及归纳文章标题、概括文章大意、总结段落大意。
主旨大意题干中常出现以下词语:subject, topic, theme,title, main idea等。
2.干扰项的特征(1)以偏概全。
概括的范围过于狭窄,只阐述了文章的一部分内容,某些局部信息或文章主题的某一个方面。
(2)断章取义。
以文章中的个别信息或个别字眼作为选项的内容,或者以次要的事实或细节冒充全文的主要观点。
(3)主题扩大。
归纳、概括的范围过大,超过文章实际所讨论的内容。
(4)似是而非。
题目中的关键词好像在文章中提到了,但认真分析后发现它与文章的内容毫无联系。
(5)张冠李戴。
命题者有意把属于A的特征放在B上。
3.解题基本思路通过略读,捕捉并关联文中的关键词和主题句,建构文章的篇章结构。
通过对文章框架的解构,分析作者行文过程的材料取舍、详略安排和逻辑发展,从而梳理出作者的思路意图,提炼出文章的主体脉络,最终归纳出主旨大意。
可采用的具体方法有:(1)逆向演绎法。
此法特别适用于标题选择题。
对于四个选项,可以分别按照命题作文的思路将题目展开,思考提纲和主要内容,然后分别与题中原文相比照,最相似者为最佳选项。

2019届高考英语阅读理解专题训练 主旨大意篇
高考英语阅读理解专题训练主旨大意篇(一)Why do Americans struggle with watching their weight, while the French, who consume(消耗)rich food, continue to stay thin? Now a research by Cornell University suggests how life style and decisions about eating may affect weight. Researchers concluded that the French tend to(往往,倾向于)stop eating when they feel full. However, Americans tend to stop when their plate is empty or their favorite TV show is over.According to Dr. Joseph Mercola, a health expert, the French see eating as an important part of their life style. They enjoy food and therefore spend a fairly long time at the table, while Americans see eating as something to be squeezed(挤出)between the other daily activities. Mercola believes Americans lose the ability to sense when they are actually full. So they keep eating long after the French would have stopped. In addition, he points out that Americans drive to huge supermarkets to buy canned and frozen foods for the week. The French, instead, tend to shop daily, walking to small shops and farmers' markets where they have a choice of fresh fruits, vegetables, and eggs as well as high-quality meats for each meal.After a visit to the United States, Mireille Guiliano, author of French Women Don't Get Fat, decided to write about the importance of knowing when to stop rather than suggesting how to avoid food. Today she continues to stay slim and rarely goes to the gym.In spite of(尽管)all these differences, evidence shows that recent life style changes may be affecting French eating habits. Today the rate of obesity —or extreme overweight —among adults is only 6%. However, as American fast food gains acceptance and the young reject(拒绝)older traditions, the obesity rate among French children has reached 17% — and is growing.(1)In what way are the French different from Americans according to Dr. Joseph Mercola?A. They go shopping at supermarkets more frequently.B. They squeeze eating between the other daily activities.C. They regard eating as a key part of their lifestyles.D. They usually eat too much canned and frozen food.(2)This text is mainly the relationship between _________.A. Americans and the FrenchB. life style and obesityC. children and adultsD. fast food and overweight(3)The text is mainly developed __________.A. by contrast (对比)B. by spaceC. by process(变化过程)D. by classification(分类)(4)Where does this text probably come from?A. A TV interviewB. A food advertisementC. A health reportD. A book review(书评)(二)When we're in need, we always turn to our parents for help. But would you like them to hear the conversations you have with your friends on the school playground or lunch queue? Social networking sites have become extensions (延伸) of the school hallways, so would you add your parents as “friends” and allow them to view your online activities and conversations with friends? In the past the generation gap included a technology gap, where children were up to date with latest technology and parents were left behind, content to continue their day to day lives as they always had because they had no need to know more about technology. However, more and more parents are beginning to realize just how important social networks are in their lives. This realization has given many parents the motivation to educate themselves about social networking sites.These days many people are attracted to social networking sites because they can choose who they have around them; there's also a certain amount of control over privacy that we don't get in real life. Sometimes we feel that privacy is violated (侵犯)when we must accept a “friend” request from a parent or family member.It's a difficult choice whether or not to allow a parent to become a part of our online lives. On the one hand we don't want to “reject” their request because that might hurt their feelings or make them feel you have something to hide. On the other hand if you do accept, then you could have a sense of being watched and no longer feel free to comment or communicate the way you did before.A recent survey suggested that parents shouldn't take it personally if their child ignores their request: “When a teen ignores a parent's friend request, it doesn't necessarily mean that they are hiding something, but it could mean that this is one part of their life where they want to beindepend ent.”Perhaps talking with parents and giving explanations would help soften the blow if you do choose not to add them to your friends list.(1)The passage is mainly about ______.A. privacy onlineB. parents' friend requestsC. the generation gapD. social networks (2)From Paragraph 2, we learn that ______.A. parents have realized the importance of social networksB. parents feel secure about their privacy onlineC. social networks successfully fill the generation gapD. social networks offer a platform for parents to communicate(3)Teenagers may refuse a parent's friend request because ______.A. their parents make negative comments on themB. they hide something from their parentsC. they are unwilling to be watched by parentsD. their parents tend to fall behind in technology(4)The passage is written mainly for ______.A. parentsB. teachersC. researchersD. teenagers(三)It's Friday morning in the year 2050, and you're running late. You got carried away watching the music video that is playing in the corner of your bathroom mirror while you were brushing your teeth. How will you get to your office at Mega Giga Industries on time?A quick check of your Internet-connected refrigerator tells you your train is a bit behind schedule, too. So you decide to drive your environmentally hydrogen fuel(环保氢燃料)car instead-or rather, let your car drive you. It's programmed to know the way and it will get you there without getting lost.Settling into your office chair, which changes color to match what you're wearing, you pick up yesterday morning's newspaper. Printed on reusable electronic paper, it rewrites itself. Now it's time for your big meeting. Uh-oh! You've left your handwritten notes at home. No problem. The smartpen you used has stored an electronic copy of what you wrote.Your wristwatch videophone(可视电话)suddenly rings. Your best friend's face pops up on thescreen asking what you're doing this weekend. Will you play virtual soccer with the U.S. Olympic team? No, no. Your friend says, so you have to take the new elevator (made of microscopic fibers many times stronger than steel) 60000 miles into space.Could this scene really take place in just a couple of decades? The researchers who are now developing all these things think so. These high-tech products(高科技产品)may be as common in 20 years as cell phones today.(1)How many high-tech products are mentioned in the text?A. Four.B. Six.C. Eight.D. Ten.(2)According to the text, if you miss the train to work, you can ______.A. drive your smart car insteadB. take the spaceship insteadC. wait for the next trainD. work at home(3)What can be inferred from the text?A. Space tourism will be a reality.B. Transportation will be trouble-free.C. People will have more time to enjoy themselves.D. Videophones will replace face-to-face communications.(4)What is the best title for the next?A. Great Changes in FutureB. Modern TimesC. Life in the FutureD. Development in Technology(四)Argentina in the late nineteenth century was an exciting place. Around 1870, it was experiencing an economic(经济的)boom, and the capital, Buenos Aires, attracted many people. Farmers, as well as a flood of foreigners from Spain and Italy, came to Buenos Aires seeking jobs. These jobs didn′t pay well, and the people felt lonely and disappointed with their new life in t he city. As the unhappy newcomers mixed together in the poor parts of the city, the dance known an the tango(探戈舞)came into being.At the beginning the tango was a dance of the lower classes. It was danced in the bars and streets. At that time there man y fewer women than men, so if a man didn′t want to be left out, his only choice was to dance with another man so that he could attract the attention of the few available women. Gradually, the dance spread into the upper classes of Argentinean society andbecame more respectable.In Europe at this time, strong interest in dance from around the world was beginning.The interest in international dance was especially evident in Paris. Every kind of dance from ballet(芭蕾舞)to belly dancing could be found on the stages of the Paris theaters of the Paris theaters. After tango dances from Argentina arrive in Europe, they began to draw the interest of the public an they performed their exiting dance in cafes, Though not everyone approved of the new dance, saying it was a little too shocking, the dance did find enough supporters to make it popular.The popularity(流行)Of the tango continued to grow in many other parts of the world. Soldiers who returned to the United States from World War I brought the tango to North America, It reached Japan in 1926, and in 2003 the Argentinean embassy in Seoul hired a local tango dancer to act an a kind of dance ambassador, and promote tango dancing throughout South Korea.(1)The origin of the tango is associated withA. Belly dancesB. American soldiersC. Spanish cityD. the capital of Argentina (2)Which of the following is true about the tango?A. It was created by foreigners from Spain and Italy.B. People of the upper classes loved the tango mostC. It was often danced by two male in the beginningD. A dancer in Seoul became the Argentinean ambassador.(3)Before World War I, the tango spread toA. AmericaB. JapanC. FranceD. South Korea (4)What can be the best title for the text?A. How to Dance the TangoB. The History of the TangoC. How to Promote the TangoD. The Modern Tango Boom(五)Women make better drivers than men for many reasons. Why is that? If you ask me, I'd like to say, men know that women are better drivers but do not have the courage to admit the truth—women are queens of the road.Unlike men, women stop for directions when they have no idea as to where they are going. We don't drive around for hours pointlessly wasting a tank of gas only to find ourselves heading in thewrong direction. Have you ever been in a car with a man who is lost? He tells you to shut up when you begin to open your mouth. And every five minutes or so he takes a turn going forty-five miles per hour only to find out he's made another wrong turn.Speeding is what men do best on the road. There is a reason why men get more speeding tickets than women. Not because we trick to get out of tickets but only because we don't get pulled over as frequently. We don't speed. We have more intelligence than senselessly to put our own lives as well as the lives of others in danger.My largest issue with male drivers is how a majority of them drive with one hand on the wheel and the other hand doing only God knows what. The seat is backed as far as possible, and they're totally lost into loud music beyond a necessary level. You don't ever see women driving like that.I feel that the above evidence more than proves my points that women are not only better drivers but also safer drivers than men. We women rule the road. Oh, and men, if you want to continue criticizing(批评)women for being bad drivers, bring it on.(1)If a woman driver feels lost, she will .A. stop the car and ask people for helpB. take the wrong turns at a high speedC. tell the man next to her to shut upD. drive aimlessly for hours without stopping (2)According to Paragraph 4, men drivers worries the writer most.A. making jokes about womenB. not paying full attentionC. not stopping for directionsD. getting more speeding tickets(3)What is the passage about?A. Women stop for directions.B. Men make better drivers than Women.C. Women make better drivers than men.D. Women rule the road.(六)Why can't some people even get an inch of what they dream of becoming? Blame it on pure dreaming and lack of setting goals for achieving their dreams.Setting goals is very significant part of accomplishing and positive actions. It is like scaling (攀爬) a 200 feet construction and marking in the early hours on what feet you would like to reach at this specific period.People who set goals literally generate(形成) a map of their goal settings in life, marking where they should start, where to pause, where to study a bit, and where and when to end. Oncethis map comes into being, it allows the map drawer to check where he is in the scheme(安排) of things and whether or not he is making some planning that will take him closer to his goals.By setting goals, people will know how they are doing and what they should be doing to get their goals or dreams in life. They will know if they can relax or if they have to double their efforts when they are falling short of what is expected of them.Goal setting means a person is proactive in dealing with challenges that may affect his plans. Being proactive means one is able to outline possible difficulties that may happen as well as the solutions(解决方法)to these difficulties. By doing this, a person is not easily scared or defeated when challenges happen because he has already prepared for them. He knows they can happen and he has prepared a solution or strategy when that time comes.Setting goals will enable people to track their progress in whatever hard work they set out to do. It will help people become more confident in themselves and more motivated to get their plans. (1)The purpose of this passage is to ________.A. explain the difference between the two goalsB. show the importance of setting goalsC. tell us how to set and achieve one's goalsD. tell us setting goals makes one confident (2)The underlined word “proactive” in paragraph 5 may have the closest meaning to “______”.A. positiveB. carefulC. braveD. prepared(3)According to the author, one had better ________ in making a goal in life.A. take an active attitudeB. create a scheme as a wholeC. consider the possible troublesD. check where he is frequently(七)On the basis of cultural relativism, the values of artistic works are simply reflections of local social and economic conditions. Such a view, however, fails to explain the ability of some works of art to excite the human mind across cultures and through centuries.History has seen the endless productions of Shakespearean plays in every major language of the world. It is never rare to find that Mozart packs Japanese concert halls, as Japanese painter Hiroshige does Paris galleries. Unique works of this kind are different from today's popular art, even if they began as works of popular art. They have set themselves apart in their timeless appeal and will probably be enjoyed for centuries into the future.In a 1757 essay, the philosopher David Hume argued that because “the general principles oftaste are uniform(不变的) in human nature, “the value of some works of art might be essentially permanent. He observed that Homer was still admired after two thousand years. Works of this type, he believed, spoke to deep and unvarying features of human nature and could continue to exist over centuries.Now researchers are applying scientific methods to the study of the universality of art. For example, evolutionary psychology is being used by literary scholars to explain the long-lasting themes and plot devices in fiction. The structures of musical pieces are now open to experimental analysis as never before. Research findings seem to indicate that the creation by a great artist is as permanent an achievement as the discovery by a great scientist.(1)According to the passage, what do we know about cultural relativism?A. It introduces different cultural values.B. It explains the history of artistic works.C. It excites the human mind throughout the world.D. It relates artistic values to local conditions.(2)In Paragraph 2, the artists are mentioned in order to show that _____.A. popular arts are hardly distinguishable from great artsB. history gives art works special appeal to set them apartC. great works of art can go beyond national boundariesD. great artists are skilled at combining various cultures(3)According to Hume, some works of art can exist for centuries because _____.A. they appeal to unchanging features of human natureB. they establish some general principles of artC. they are created by the world's greatest artistsD. they are the results of scientific study(4)Which of the following can best serve as the title of the passage?A. Is Cultural Relativism Scientific?B. Are Popular Arts Permanent?C. Is Human Nature Uniform?D. Are Artistic Values Universal?(八)Astronauts on shorter shuttle missions (使命) often work very long days. Tasks are scheduled so tightly that break times are often used to finish the tightly that break times are often used tofinish the day's work. This type of scheduled is far too demanding for long missions on the International Space Station (ISS). ISS crewmembers usually live in space for at least a quarter of a year. They work five days on and two days off to mimic the normal way they do things on Earth as much as possible. Weekends give the crew valuable time to rest and do a few hours of housework. They can communicate with family and friends by email, internet phone and through private video conferences.While astronauts cannot go to a baseball game or a movie in orbit, there are many familiar activities that they can still enjoy. Before a mission, the family and friends of each ISS crewmember put together a collection of family photos, messages, videos and reading material for the astronauts to look at when they will be floating 370 kilometers above the Earth.During their mission, the crew also receives care packages with CDs, books, magazines, photos and letters. And as from early 2010, the internet became available on the ISS, giving astronauts the chance to do some “web surfing(冲浪)”in their personal time. Besides relaxing with these more common entertainments, astronauts can simply enjoy the experience of living in space.Many astronauts say that one of the most relaxing things to do in space is to look out the window and stare at the universe and the Earth. Both the shuttle and the ISS circle the planet several times each day, and every moment offers a new view of the Earth's vast land mass and oceans.(1)What does the word “mimic” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?A. Find.B. Copy.C. Change.D. Lose.(2)Which of the following best describes the families of the astronauts on the ISS?A. They are caring and thoughtful.B. They are worried and annoyed.C. They are impatient and annoyed.D. They are excited and curious.(3)In the final paragraph, the author shows that astronauts ________.A. get more pleasure in space than on the Earth.B. finding living in space a bit boring and tiringC. regard space life as commonD. love to see the Earth from space(4)The passage mainly discusses how astronauts ________.A. work for longer missions in spaceB. connect with people on the EarthC. observe with Earth from spaceD. spend their free time in space(九)China Merchants Bank Co Ltd has teamed up with ride-hailing major Didi Kuaidi to provide automobile financing and expand its reach in China's booming mobile payment industry.The two have inked a comprehensive partnership, which includes a strategic investment by the former in the latter. Under the partnership, CMB will become the first bricks-and-mortar bank that can offer in-app credit card payments to Didi users. At present, users of Didi can only choose third-party payment solutions like WeChat Payment and Alipay to pay cab fares.Zhao Ju, vice-president of CMB, said the cooperation with Didi was an important step in its mobile Internet finance strategy. “CMB's mobile payment is going to enter a new chapter by leveraging Didi Kuaidi's vast user base,” he said.According to a report by China Internet Network Information Center earlier this month, Didi holds 87.2 percent of China's private car hailing market. The company said it has received 1.43 billion car-hailing requests on its platforms in 2015, which means 1.43 billion payments were made via smartphones.CMB is expected to use Didi to reach the core users of China's mobile payment market. Jean Liu, president of Didi, said many of the expats prefer payment by credit card rather than Alipay or WeChat. “The new partnership will help improve service quality and customer loyalty,” she said. The investment makes CMB part of Didi's existing investors, including Tencent Holdings Ltd, Alibaba Group Holding Ltd and China Investment Corporation. Both of the companies declined to reveal the actual amount of the investment.Liu, who showed up on Tuesday for the first time in public after her treatment for breast cancer, said the cooperation with CMB is for the long run and “the capital investment is only part of it”.Under the partnership, CMB and Didi will cooperate on a wide range of initiatives on financial services and online-to-offline cooperation. Apart from the in-app credit card payments, the two companies are going to launch joint credit cards in late February and automobile financing services for Didi's car owners. CMB's branches across China are expected to help Didi recruit more drivers.“There is a lot of room for imagination in our partnership,” Li said, adding in future people may use their CMB credit card reward points to pay for the ride on Didi.Li Chao, an analyst with iResearch Consulting Group, said the partnership may not significantly boost CMB's mobile payment business. “Didi has educated the market for three years and its customers have formed the habit of paying by WeChat or Alipay. So I think CMB can only turn a very smart proportion of Didi users into its payment customer,” he said. “But the move shows that China's traditional banking industry is finally thinking out of the box and looking for outside partners in Internet fina nce competition,” he said.Statistics from Big-Data Research showed that more than 90 percent of China's 9.3 trillion yuan ($1.41 trillion) worth of third party mobile payment market is donated by Alibaba and Tencent.(1)Which of the following is not the purpose of CMB's cooperation with Didi?A. CMB is expected to use Didi to reach the core users of China's mobile payment market.B. Through the cooperation with Didi, CMB will help improve service quality and customer loyalty.C.

(4)The main idea of this passage is that ________.A. CMB develops partnership with Didi KuaidiB. CMB is looking for outside partners in Internet finance competitionC.

Alibaba and Tencent dominate the mobile payment market(十)A biologist from the National Park Service discovered a rare and unusual mammoth(猛犸) skull(颅骨) buried in a 13,000-year-old rock layer on the Santa Rosa Island, the second largestlandmass in the Channel Islands, California. The fossil of the extinct giant animal is leaving many paleontologists(古生物学家) scratching their heads. Despite the fact that it's possibly the best preserved mammoth skull ever found and of high scientific importance, the species of the individual it belonged to can't seem to be identified yet—it's too big to be a pygmy(特别矮小的) mammoth and too small to have come from a Columbian mammoth. Some say it's a new species while others believe the truth lies somewhere in between.The first mammoths showed up in North America around two million years ago, but it was only during the last two ice ages that the Columbian species, which could grow to be up to 14 feet tall, made its way to the Channel Islands 100 miles west of Los Angeles. Once the ice melted, many populations became trapped on the island and evolved into pygmy mammoths, an endemic species(地方种) to the Channel Islands which grew only to six feet tall.Judging from its size, the newly found mammoth skull doesn't seem to fit any of the two species, Columbian or pygmy. To make things even more confusing, one of its two tusks(象牙) is nearly five feet long and coiled in a manner that resembles those of fully grown mammoths but the left tusk is shorter and sloped, more like a juvenile(青少年).This has caused some scientists to say the Santa Rose skull may belong to a transitional species. Whatever's the case, a following examination of the mammoth's teeth should put the matter to rest. The analysis will also tell us how old the mammoth was when it died, so we can tell for sure whether it was an adult or juvenile.More interesting than the mammoth's lineage, however, might be its story. The giant mammal lived 13,000 years ago or roughly the same timeline of the “Arlington Man”, a 13,000-year-old human skeleton also found on Santa Rosa. Some 3,000 years later humans were already spread throughout the continent and the Channel Islands' mammoth went extinct. The present finding might help reveal a link between the two.The remains also seem to confirm a long-held assumption that there were two mammoth migrations to the Channel Islands. “The dis covery of this mammoth skull increases the probability that there were at least two migrations of Columbian mammoths to the island: during the most recent ice age 10,000 to 30,000 years ago, as well as the previous ice age that occurred about 150,000 years ago,” said USGS geologist Dan Muhs.(1)The underlined part in the first paragraph means the paleontologists feel ________.A. excitedB. confusedC. anxiousD. frustrated (2)Which of the following is not among the reasons why the newly found skull is special?A. It is possibly the best preserved mammoth skulls.B. Its size fits neither the Columbian mammoth nor the pygmy mammoth.C. It was found on the Santa Rose Island, California.D. Its two tusks give out different information of the mammoth's age.(3)What can be inferred from the last three paragraphs?A. The examination of the mammoth's teeth can tell us how old it was when it died.B. There may be a link between the extinction of mammoths and the spread of humans.C. At least two mammoth groups migrated to the Channel Islands during different periods of time.D. There remains no final conclusion as to how many mammoth groups migrated to the Islands. (4)This passage mainly tells us the newly found mammoth skull _________.A. is among the best preserved, but with a mysterious storyB. has aroused a debate over what species it belongs toC. is of great scientific importance to mankindD. is likely to confirm a former assumption。

2019届高考英语阅读理解专题训练 主旨大意篇
高考英语阅读理解专题训练主旨大意篇(一)Why do Americans struggle with watching their weight, while the French, who consume(消耗)rich food, continue to stay thin? Now a research by Cornell University suggests how life style and decisions about eating may affect weight. Researchers concluded that the French tend to(往往,倾向于)stop eating when they feel full. However, Americans tend to stop when their plate is empty or their favorite TV show is over.According to Dr. Joseph Mercola, a health expert, the French see eating as an important part of their life style. They enjoy food and therefore spend a fairly long time at the table, while Americans see eating as something to be squeezed(挤出)between the other daily activities. Mercola believes Americans lose the ability to sense when they are actually full. So they keep eating long after the French would have stopped. In addition, he points out that Americans drive to huge supermarkets to buy canned and frozen foods for the week. The French, instead, tend to shop daily, walking to small shops and farmers' markets where they have a choice of fresh fruits, vegetables, and eggs as well as high-quality meats for each meal.After a visit to the United States, Mireille Guiliano, author of French Women Don't Get Fat, decided to write about the importance of knowing when to stop rather than suggesting how to avoid food. Today she continues to stay slim and rarely goes to the gym.In spite of(尽管)all these differences, evidence shows that recent life style changes may be affecting French eating habits. Today the rate of obesity —or extreme overweight —among adults is only 6%. However, as American fast food gains acceptance and the young reject(拒绝)older traditions, the obesity rate among French children has reached 17% — and is growing.(1)In what way are the French different from Americans according to Dr. Joseph Mercola?A. They go shopping at supermarkets more frequently.B. They squeeze eating between the other daily activities.C. They regard eating as a key part of their lifestyles.D. They usually eat too much canned and frozen food.(2)This text is mainly the relationship between _________.A. Americans and the FrenchB. life style and obesityC. children and adultsD. fast food and overweight(3)The text is mainly developed __________.A. by contrast (对比)B. by spaceC. by process(变化过程)D. by classification(分类)(4)Where does this text probably come from?A. A TV interviewB. A food advertisementC. A health reportD. A book review(书评)(二)When we're in need, we always turn to our parents for help. But would you like them to hear the conversations you have with your friends on the school playground or lunch queue? Social networking sites have become extensions (延伸) of the school hallways, so would you add your parents as “friends” and allow them to vie w your online activities and conversations with friends? In the past the generation gap included a technology gap, where children were up to date with latest technology and parents were left behind, content to continue their day to day lives as they always had because they had no need to know more about technology. However, more and more parents are beginning to realize just how important social networks are in their lives. This realization has given many parents the motivation to educate themselves about social networking sites.These days many people are attracted to social networking sites because they can choose who they have around them; there's also a certain amount of control over privacy that we don't get in real life. Sometimes we feel that privacy is violated (侵犯)when we must accept a “friend” request from a parent or family member.It's a difficult choice whether or not to allow a parent to become a part of our online lives. On the one hand we don't want to “reject” their request becaus e that might hurt their feelings or make them feel you have something to hide. On the other hand if you do accept, then you could have a sense of being watched and no longer feel free to comment or communicate the way you did before.A recent survey suggested that parents shouldn't take it personally if their child ignores their request: “When a teen ignores a parent's friend request, it doesn't necessarily mean that they are hiding something, but it could mean that this is one part of their life where they want to beindependent.”Perhaps talking with parents and giving explanations would help soften the blow if you do choose not to add them to your friends list.(1)The passage is mainly about ______.A. privacy onlineB. parents' friend requestsC. the generation gapD. social networks (2)From Paragraph 2, we learn that ______.A. parents have realized the importance of social networksB. parents feel secure about their privacy onlineC. social networks successfully fill the generation gapD. social networks offer a platform for parents to communicate(3)Teenagers may refuse a parent's friend request because ______.A. their parents make negative comments on themB. they hide something from their parentsC. they are unwilling to be watched by parentsD. their parents tend to fall behind in technology(4)The passage is written mainly for ______.A. parentsB. teachersC. researchersD. teenagers(三)It's Friday morning in the year 2050, and you're running late. You got carried away watching the music video that is playing in the corner of your bathroom mirror while you were brushing your teeth. How will you get to your office at Mega Giga Industries on time?A quick check of your Internet-connected refrigerator tells you your train is a bit behind schedule, too. So you decide to drive your environmentally hydrogen fuel(环保氢燃料)car instead-or rather, let your car drive you. It's programmed to know the way and it will get you there without getting lost.Settling into your office chair, which changes color to match what you're wearing, you pick up yesterday morning's newspaper. Printed on reusable electronic paper, it rewrites itself. Now it's time for your big meeting. Uh-oh! You've left your handwritten notes at home. No problem. The smartpen you used has stored an electronic copy of what you wrote.Your wristwatch videophone(可视电话)suddenly rings. Your best friend's face pops up on thescreen asking what you're doing this weekend. Will you play virtual soccer with the U.S. Olympic team? No, no. Your friend says, so you have to take the new elevator (made of microscopic fibers many times stronger than steel) 60000 miles into space.Could this scene really take place in just a couple of decades? The researchers who are now developing all these things think so. These high-tech products(高科技产品)may be as common in 20 years as cell phones today.(1)How many high-tech products are mentioned in the text?A. Four.B. Six.C. Eight.D. Ten.(2)According to the text, if you miss the train to work, you can ______.A. drive your smart car insteadB. take the spaceship insteadC. wait for the next trainD. work at home(3)What can be inferred from the text?A. Space tourism will be a reality.B. Transportation will be trouble-free.C. People will have more time to enjoy themselves.D. Videophones will replace face-to-face communications.(4)What is the best title for the next?A. Great Changes in FutureB. Modern TimesC. Life in the FutureD. Development in Technology(四)Argentina in the late nineteenth century was an exciting place. Around 1870, it was experiencing an economic(经济的)boom, and the capital, Buenos Aires, attracted many people. Farmers, as well as a flood of foreigners from Spain and Italy, came to Buenos Aires seeking jobs. These jobs didn′t pay well, and the people felt lonely and disappointed with t heir new life in the city. As the unhappy newcomers mixed together in the poor parts of the city, the dance known an the tango(探戈舞)came into being.At the beginning the tango was a dance of the lower classes. It was danced in the bars and streets. At t hat time there many fewer women than men, so if a man didn′t want to be left out, his only choice was to dance with another man so that he could attract the attention of the few available women. Gradually, the dance spread into the upper classes of Argentinean society andbecame more respectable.In Europe at this time, strong interest in dance from around the world was beginning.The interest in international dance was especially evident in Paris. Every kind of dance from ballet(芭蕾舞)to belly dancing could be found on the stages of the Paris theaters of the Paris theaters. After tango dances from Argentina arrive in Europe, they began to draw the interest of the public an they performed their exiting dance in cafes, Though not everyone approved of the new dance, saying it was a little too shocking, the dance did find enough supporters to make it popular.The popularity(流行)Of the tango continued to grow in many other parts of the world. Soldiers who returned to the United States from World War I brought the tango to North America, It reached Japan in 1926, and in 2003 the Argentinean embassy in Seoul hired a local tango dancer to act an a kind of dance ambassador, and promote tango dancing throughout South Korea.(1)The origin of the tango is associated withA. Belly dancesB. American soldiersC. Spanish cityD. the capital of Argentina (2)Which of the following is true about the tango?A. It was created by foreigners from Spain and Italy.B. People of the upper classes loved the tango mostC. It was often danced by two male in the beginningD. A dancer in Seoul became the Argentinean ambassador.(3)Before World War I, the tango spread toA. AmericaB. JapanC. FranceD. South Korea (4)What can be the best title for the text?A. How to Dance the TangoB. The History of the TangoC. How to Promote the TangoD. The Modern Tango Boom(五)Women make better drivers than men for many reasons. Why is that? If you ask me, I'd like to say, men know that women are better drivers but do not have the courage to admit the truth—women are queens of the road.Unlike men, women stop for directions when they have no idea as to where they are going. We don't drive around for hours pointlessly wasting a tank of gas only to find ourselves heading in thewrong direction. Have you ever been in a car with a man who is lost? He tells you to shut up when you begin to open your mouth. And every five minutes or so he takes a turn going forty-five miles per hour only to find out he's made another wrong turn.Speeding is what men do best on the road. There is a reason why men get more speeding tickets than women. Not because we trick to get out of tickets but only because we don't get pulled over as frequently. We don't speed. We have more intelligence than senselessly to put our own lives as well as the lives of others in danger.My largest issue with male drivers is how a majority of them drive with one hand on the wheel and the other hand doing only God knows what. The seat is backed as far as possible, and they're totally lost into loud music beyond a necessary level. You don't ever see women driving like that.I feel that the above evidence more than proves my points that women are not only better drivers but also safer drivers than men. We women rule the road. Oh, and men, if you want to continue criticizing(批评)women for being bad drivers, bring it on.(1)If a woman driver feels lost, she will .A. stop the car and ask people for helpB. take the wrong turns at a high speedC. tell the man next to her to shut upD. drive aimlessly for hours without stopping (2)According to Paragraph 4, men drivers worries the writer most.A. making jokes about womenB. not paying full attentionC. not stopping for directionsD. getting more speeding tickets(3)What is the passage about?A. Women stop for directions.B. Men make better drivers than Women.C. Women make better drivers than men.D. Women rule the road.(六)Why can't some people even get an inch of what they dream of becoming? Blame it on pure dreaming and lack of setting goals for achieving their dreams.Setting goals is very significant part of accomplishing and positive actions. It is like scaling (攀爬) a 200 feet construction and marking in the early hours on what feet you would like to reach at this specific period.People who set goals literally generate(形成) a map of their goal settings in life, marking where they should start, where to pause, where to study a bit, and where and when to end. Oncethis map comes into being, it allows the map drawer to check where he is in the scheme(安排) of things and whether or not he is making some planning that will take him closer to his goals.By setting goals, people will know how they are doing and what they should be doing to get their goals or dreams in life. They will know if they can relax or if they have to double their efforts when they are falling short of what is expected of them.Goal setting means a person is proactive in dealing with challenges that may affect his plans. Being proactive means one is able to outline possible difficulties that may happen as well as the solutions(解决方法)to these difficulties. By doing this, a person is not easily scared or defeated when challenges happen because he has already prepared for them. He knows they can happen and he has prepared a solution or strategy when that time comes.Setting goals will enable people to track their progress in whatever hard work they set out to do. It will help people become more confident in themselves and more motivated to get their plans. (1)The purpose of this passage is to ________.A. explain the difference between the two goalsB. show the importance of setting goalsC. tell us how to set and achieve one's goalsD. tell us setting goals makes one confident (2)The underlined word “proactive” in paragraph 5 may have the closest meaning to “______”.A. positiveB. carefulC. braveD. prepared(3)According to the author, one had better ________ in making a goal in life.A. take an active attitudeB. create a scheme as a wholeC. consider the possible troublesD. check where he is frequently(七)On the basis of cultural relativism, the values of artistic works are simply reflections of local social and economic conditions. Such a view, however, fails to explain the ability of some works of art to excite the human mind across cultures and through centuries.History has seen the endless productions of Shakespearean plays in every major language of the world. It is never rare to find that Mozart packs Japanese concert halls, as Japanese painter Hiroshige does Paris galleries. Unique works of this kind are different from today's popular art, even if they began as works of popular art. They have set themselves apart in their timeless appeal and will probably be enjoyed for centuries into the future.In a 1757 essay, the philosopher David Hume argued that because “the general principles oftaste are uniform(不变的) in human nature, “the value of some works of art might be essentially permanent. He observed that Homer was still admired after two thousand years. Works of this type, he believed, spoke to deep and unvarying features of human nature and could continue to exist over centuries.Now researchers are applying scientific methods to the study of the universality of art. For example, evolutionary psychology is being used by literary scholars to explain the long-lasting themes and plot devices in fiction. The structures of musical pieces are now open to experimental analysis as never before. Research findings seem to indicate that the creation by a great artist is as permanent an achievement as the discovery by a great scientist.(1)According to the passage, what do we know about cultural relativism?A. It introduces different cultural values.B. It explains the history of artistic works.C. It excites the human mind throughout the world.D. It relates artistic values to local conditions.(2)In Paragraph 2, the artists are mentioned in order to show that _____.A. popular arts are hardly distinguishable from great artsB. history gives art works special appeal to set them apartC. great works of art can go beyond national boundariesD. great artists are skilled at combining various cultures(3)According to Hume, some works of art can exist for centuries because _____.A. they appeal to unchanging features of human natureB. they establish some general principles of artC. they are created by the world's greatest artistsD. they are the results of scientific study(4)Which of the following can best serve as the title of the passage?A. Is Cultural Relativism Scientific?B. Are Popular Arts Permanent?C. Is Human Nature Uniform?D. Are Artistic Values Universal?(八)Astronauts on shorter shuttle missions (使命) often work very long days. Tasks are scheduled so tightly that break times are often used to finish the tightly that break times are often used tofinish the day's work. This type of scheduled is far too demanding for long missions on the International Space Station (ISS). ISS crewmembers usually live in space for at least a quarter of a year. They work five days on and two days off to mimic the normal way they do things on Earth as much as possible. Weekends give the crew valuable time to rest and do a few hours of housework. They can communicate with family and friends by email, internet phone and through private video conferences.While astronauts cannot go to a baseball game or a movie in orbit, there are many familiar activities that they can still enjoy. Before a mission, the family and friends of each ISS crewmember put together a collection of family photos, messages, videos and reading material for the astronauts to look at when they will be floating 370 kilometers above the Earth.During their mission, the crew also receives care packages with CDs, books, magazines, photos and letters. And as from early 2010, the internet became available on the ISS, giving astronauts the chance to do some “web surfing(冲浪)”in their personal time. Besides relaxing with these more common entertainments, astronauts can simply enjoy the experience of living in space.Many astronauts say that one of the most relaxing things to do in space is to look out the window and stare at the universe and the Earth. Both the shuttle and the ISS circle the planet several times each day, and every moment offers a new view of the Earth's vast land mass and oceans.(1)What does the word “mimic” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?A. Find.B. Copy.C. Change.D. Lose.(2)Which of the following best describes the families of the astronauts on the ISS?A. They are caring and thoughtful.B. They are worried and annoyed.C. They are impatient and annoyed.D. They are excited and curious.(3)In the final paragraph, the author shows that astronauts ________.A. get more pleasure in space than on the Earth.B. finding living in space a bit boring and tiringC. regard space life as commonD. love to see the Earth from space(4)The passage mainly discusses how astronauts ________.A. work for longer missions in spaceB. connect with people on the EarthC. observe with Earth from spaceD. spend their free time in space(九)China Merchants Bank Co Ltd has teamed up with ride-hailing major Didi Kuaidi to provide automobile financing and expand its reach in China's booming mobile payment industry.The two have inked a comprehensive partnership, which includes a strategic investment by the former in the latter. Under the partnership, CMB will become the first bricks-and-mortar bank that can offer in-app credit card payments to Didi users. At present, users of Didi can only choose third-party payment solutions like WeChat Payment and Alipay to pay cab fares.Zhao Ju, vice-president of CMB, said the cooperation with Didi was an important step in its mobile Internet finance strategy. “CMB's mobile payment is going to enter a new chapter by leveraging Didi Kuaidi's vast user base,” he said.According to a report by China Internet Network Information Center earlier this month, Didi holds 87.2 percent of China's private car hailing market. The company said it has received 1.43 billion car-hailing requests on its platforms in 2015, which means 1.43 billion payments were made via smartphones.CMB is expected to use Didi to reach the core users of China's mobile payment market. Jean Liu, president of Didi, said many of the expats prefer payment by credit card rather than Alipay or WeChat. “The new partnership will help improve service quality and customer loyalty,” she said. The investment makes CMB part of Didi's existing investors, including Tencent Holdings Ltd, Alibaba Group Holding Ltd and China Investment Corporation. Both of the companies declined to reveal the actual amount of the investment.Liu, who showed up on Tuesday for the first time in public after her treatment for breast cancer, said the cooperation with CMB is for the long run and “the capital investment is only part of it”.Under the partnership, CMB and Didi will cooperate on a wide range of initiatives on financial services and online-to-offline cooperation. Apart from the in-app credit card payments, the two companies are going to launch joint credit cards in late February and automobile financing services for Didi's car owners. CMB's branches across China are expected to help Didi recruit more drivers.“There is a lot of room for imagination in our partnership,” Li said, adding in future people may use their CMB credit card reward points to pay for the ride on Didi.Li Chao, an analyst with iResearch Consulting Group, said the partnership may not significantly boost CMB's mobile payment business. “Didi has educated the market for three years and its customers have formed the habit of paying by WeChat or Alipay. So I think CMB can only turn a very smart proportion of Didi users into its payment customer,” he said. “But the move shows that China's traditional banking industry is finally thinking out of the box and looking for outside partne rs in Internet finance competition,” he said.Statistics from Big-Data Research showed that more than 90 percent of China's 9.3 trillion yuan ($1.41 trillion) worth of third party mobile payment market is donated by Alibaba and Tencent.(1)Which of the following is not the purpose of CMB's cooperation with Didi?A. CMB is expected to use Didi to reach the core users of China's mobile payment market.B. Through the cooperation with Didi, CMB will help improve service quality and customer loyalty.C. CMB will launch joint credit cards with Didi to expand its service.D. CMB will turn a very large proportion of Didi users into its payment customer.(2)What can be inferred from the passage?A. CMB's mobile payment is going to enter a new chapter.B. China's traditional banking industry is facing fierce Internet finance competition.C. CMB and Didi will have an online-to-offline cooperation.D. The majority of Didi users will pay by CMB in-app credit card.(3)What's Li Chao' attitude towards the partnership between CMB and Didi?A. cautious.B. positive.C. indifferent.D. disapproving. (4)The main idea of this passage is that ________.A. CMB develops partnership with Didi KuaidiB. CMB is looking for outside partners in Internet finance competitionC. Didi Kuaidi is going to enter a new chapterD. Alibaba and Tencent dominate the mobile payment market(十)A biologist from the National Park Service discovered a rare and unusual mammoth(猛犸) skull(颅骨) buried in a 13,000-year-old rock layer on the Santa Rosa Island, the second largestlandmass in the Channel Islands, California. The fossil of the extinct giant animal is leaving many paleontologists(古生物学家) scratching their heads. Despite the fact that it's possibly the best preserved mammoth skull ever found and of high scientific importance, the species of the individual it belonged to can't seem to be identified yet—it's too big to be a pygmy(特别矮小的) mammoth and too small to have come from a Columbian mammoth.

It is possibly the best preserved mammoth skulls.B. Its size fits neither the Columbian mammoth nor the pygmy mammoth.C. It was found on the Santa Rose Island, California.D. Its two tusks give out different information of the mammoth's age.(3)What can be inferred from the last three paragraphs?A. The examination of the mammoth's teeth can tell us how old it was when it died.B. There may be a link between the extinction of mammoths and the spread of humans.C. At least two mammoth groups migrated to the Channel Islands during different periods of time.D. There remains no final conclusion as to how many mammoth groups migrated to the Islands. (4)This passage mainly tells us the newly found mammoth skull _________.A. is among the best preserved, but with a mysterious storyB. has aroused a debate over what species it belongs toC. is of great scientific importance to mankindD. is likely to confirm a former assumption。

If you've seen Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs,you've probably sung along to the dwarfs' classic happy song,“Heigh Ho.” In the summer of 2019,the dwarfs have a new song—and look—in Disney XD's animated series (动画系列),The 7D.The new TV show features a pleasant theme song written and performed by Parry Gripp.Gripp's theme introduces the 7D—Happy,Doc,Grumpy,Sneezy,Bashful,Dopey,and Sleepy —to the audience at the start of each half-hour show.“The theme song is in kind of a punk (朋克) rock style,”Gripp said.“It's pretty fast and has guitars and the tone of my voice is a bit nasal (鼻音) and aggressive.But the music in the show really changes.”The 7D follows Happy,Doc,Grumpy,Sneezy,Bashful,Dopey,and Sleepy on their adventures working in a jewel mine in the town of Jollywood,before they met Snow White.Jollywood is ruled by Queen Delightful,a kind queen who calls on the 7D for any problem.Problems frequently arise as a pair of bad couple Hildy and Grim Gloom plan to take over the throne (王座)or take magical jewels away.“Grim and Hildy want to be constant thorns in the side (眼中钉) of the 7D and the Queen,” the producer Tom Ruegger said.“Having Kelly Osbourne join the cast [as the voice of Hildy] has been a real bonus(意外收获) and the audience praised his performances highly.I didn't expect that.”Ruegger,who previously worked on hit animated shows Animaniacs and Tiny Toon Adventures,has been developing The 7D since 2019.“It's old-school in that you have the same names as in Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs,” Ruegger said.“But there is a lot of innovation to it:new designs,very new colorful characters,brand new voices and settings.”Many of Gripp's songs are performed by Happy.“I think Happy is sort of the heart a nd soul of The7D,”says Ruegger.“He's so positive and his singing and the songs that he delivers add a lot of energy to the show.”Fittingly,Gripp says Happy is the 7D member he relates to most.“But my favorite character is Grumpy because he is so funny.”【语篇解读】文章介绍了最新动画音乐剧The 7D的相关信息。

B(2018·山东六校高三联考)Fourthgrade teacher Tori Nelson allowed one of her students to shave her head in the schoolyard, after bullies (仗势欺人者) teased him about his own buzz cut. Ms Nelson got the idea after noticing that Matthew Finney, a shy boy from her homeroom at Winlock Miller Elementary School in Washington State, was standing outside his classroom crying and wearing a winter hat.Ms Nelson could see the back of his neck had been shaved, and since Matthew usually had very thick curly brown hair, she realized that he'd had a haircut over the weekend. She asked him what was wrong, and he said he'd gotten a buzz cut for the summer. But this morning, a fifth grader on the bus made fun of him, and he didn't want to come to class and get teased by other kids. Ms Nelson tried to convince Matthew to come inside, but since school rules prohibited kids from wearing hats indoors he refused — explaining that he was afraid of showing his haircut to the other children in case they also made fun of him.“Finally I said, ‘If you take your hat off and come to class, I'll let you give me a buzz cut too,’” Ms Nelson told Yahoo Parenting. “I figured it's just hair, and mine is already short anyway. I might as well get it shorter in time for the warm weather.”Matthew excitedly took her up on the offer, and Ms Nelson and another teacher gathered all the fourth graders together during break time. A school employee brought in scissors, which Matthew used to the cheers of his classmates, excitedly watching as their teacher's hair fell away onto the ground in the schoolyard.“It was a lot of fun for the kids, and it helped Matthew feel better about himself,” said Ms Nelson. “You have to do what it takes to reach children. Teaching isn't just about reading and writing; it's about selfworth and accepting differences.”语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文,讲述了小男孩Matthew因新发型被其他孩子嘲笑而不敢进教室,女老师Tori Nelson通过让Matthew帮她剪同样的发型来安慰、鼓励他的故事。
