Ⅰ阅读理解(2018·郑州一中高三入学测试)Enjoying a musical performance no longer requires a costly ticket or a trip to a theater.These days，musicians are performing in private homes，at haircutting shops，at airports...even on ferry boats.Musicians like house concerts.At music clubs，they often have to perform over loud conversation or deal with people who have had too much alcohol.People at house concerts are more focused on listening to the music.Just a few hours before the Bombadils started singing at the O’Hair Salon，Lindsay was cutting hair and Tamera was doing facials.Then，they moved chairs and microphones to create a small performance space.The Bombadils made music in the front part of the hair salon，near the hairdryers and makeup tables.“This is our first show at a hair salon，”Sarah Frank of the Bombadils told concertgoers at last week’s performance.Frank said she and band members，Luke Fraser and Kaitlyn Raitz had a great time “interacting”with the audience.Concerts in people’s homes，or small businesses such as O’Hair’s，are becoming more popular，musicians say.“There is a more relaxed atmosphere，”said Domenic Cicala，a musician who opened up his O’Hair Salon to concerts.“People really get to know the artists.”At house concerts，people get time before and after concerts to meet the performers.Often，the hosts or guests will provide food and drink.“People really like listening to music in the living room of a friend，”said Matt Hart，with Aubrey Zoli making up the Local Strangers，a folkrock group based in Seattle.At many such concerts，the musicians do not need microphones.Yet，every word of their songs can be heard.【解题导语】本文主要介绍了现代音乐会在举办场地的选择上更加多样化，私人居所、理发店、机场等都成为音乐家表演的场所，并且备受青睐.1．Why do musicians like house concerts?A．Because private homes are easier to get to.B．Because people pay more attention to their music.C．Because they can do other things while performing.D．Because they don’t have to bring their microphones.B解析：推理判断题.根据第二段最后一句可知，音乐家喜欢家庭音乐会是因为听众会更专注于倾听音乐.故选B.2．What impressed Sarah Frank most at her last week’s performance?A．The small performance space.B．Her first show at a hair salon.C．Their interaction with the audience.D．The more relaxed atmosphere.C解析：细节理解题.根据第四段最后一句可知，上周的表演给Sarah Frank留下最深刻印象的是与听众的互动，故选C.3．How many music groups are mentioned in the text?A．One.B．Two.C．Three. D．Four.B解析：细节理解题.通读全文可知，本文提到了两个乐队，一个是the Bombadils，另一个是西雅图的民谣摇滚乐队the Local Strangers，故选B.4．What may be the best title for the text?A．Musicians Struggle to Make a LivingB．People Really Get to Know the ArtistsC．Musicians Find New Places to PerformD．Concertgoers Won’t Go to Music ClubsC解析：标题归纳题.根据文章第一段，并结合对文章的整体理解可推知，本文主要讲述了现代音乐会在举办场地的选择上更加多样化，音乐家发现了私人居所、发廊等新的场所来表演，故选C.Ⅱ七选五(2018·贵州普通高等学校适应性考试)Many arguments teenagers have with their parents are about one thing: independence. As you get older, you’ll want to do more stuff on your own, without your mom and dad tagging along with you. The arguments generally start when your parents think you aren’t ready for extra responsibility while you think you are. Arguing with your parents isn’t the best solution at all, but the best solution is gaining trust from your parents.1.________·Understand that it’s not your parents who do not want you to have independence. They want the best for you and think you’re not ready or you’ll hurt yourself if you have the freedom to do whatever you want. Show your parents you can be sensible. 2.________ If you can’t get home by 9：30, they’ll never let you out after 10：00.·Agree with them some “friends time” and some “family time” so that they know you won’t be spending your whole weekend out with your friends. 3.________ They won’t imagine you getting into trouble if they know how they are.·4.________ They won’t feel much worried letting you go off on your own if they know what you’re up to. Call in and tell your parents that you’re OK from time to time. The less they worry about you, the more independence you’ll gain.·5.________ If they find out, all that trust will be destroyed and then you’ll never get the extra independence you ever wanted.A．Show your parents how independent you are.B．Never lie to your parents about where you’re going.C．Remember to ask for your parents’help if you need it.D．Always tell your parents where you are, and who you’re with.E．Generally speaking, they won’t be worried about increasing your independence.F．And before you enjoy the “friends time”，introduce your friends to your parents.G．Agree a time you’ll be home with your parents, and always make sure you keep to it.【解题导语】本文论述了解决青少年想要独立而经常和父母发生矛盾这一问题的四个方法.1．E解析：根据该空位置可知，该空承上启下，既总结第一段大意，又引出下文；而第一段主要陈述“青少年想要独立，但经常和父母发生矛盾，解决这一问题的关键是取得父母的信任”，再结合下文的整体内容可知，E项符合文意.2．G解析：根据空处后一句“If you can’t get home by 9：30, they’ll never let you out after 10：00.”可知，如果你无法在9：30之前回家，他们将不会让你在10：00之后外出；据此可知，空处陈述“和父母商定一个你到家的时间，一直保证按时到家”，故G项正确.3．F解析：根据空处前一句中的“Agree with them some‘friends time’”可知，空处讲述在享受和朋友在一起的美好时光之前，你可以向父母介绍朋友以免父母担心，故F项正确.4．D解析：根据空处所在位置可知，空处是该段的主题句；通读该段内容可知，该段主要说要告知你的父母你的情况，据此可知，D项符合文意.5．B解析：根据空处后一句“If they find out, all that trust will be destroyed and then you’ll never get the extra independence you ever wanted.”可知，一旦被父母发现，你们之间的信任会遭到破坏，你便无法获得想要的独立；据此可以判断，空处表示“不要在自己的行踪方面向父母撒谎”，故B项正确.Ⅲ语法填空(2018·辽宁五校协作体联考)Are you a teenager 1.____________(absorb)in music？If so, I will give you a warning—the music you love could end up making you deaf.More 2.____________(specific)，the way you listen to the music you love could make you deaf.The problem is headphones.In the past，we played music out into the air.Then earmuffstyle(耳罩式) headphones 3.____________(invent) and we were able to play music much closer to our ears.Now we have earbuds(耳塞)，which many doctors think are 4.____________(bad)than older headphones because they play music directly into the ears.Also，earbuds are not as good asblocking outside noise，so people 5.____________use them may turn the volume 6.____________to dangerous levels.What’s the dangerous level？Well，it 7.____________(depend) on how long you are going to listen to the noise.Very，very loud sounds can be dangerous to your hearing.But scary8.____________(true) is that even seemingly “normal”noise can be dangerous9.____________you listen to it all the time.Think for a minute about how long you spend 10.____________(listen) to loud noise with headphones every day.Then do some research.There are resources online to tell you what volumes are safe，and for how long.【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文.文章主要讲述了要注意听音乐的方式，戴耳机听音乐时开很大的音量可能会对听力造成损害.1．absorbed解析：考查形容词.be absorbed in...意为“被……吸引住”，符合语境，故填absorbed.2．specifically解析：考查副词.分析句子结构可知，此处是用副词修饰整个句子.3．were invented解析：考查动词时态和语态.分析句意可知，headphones与invent之间是被动关系，因此需用被动语态；且此处表示过去发生的动作，故用一般过去时.4．worse解析：考查形容词比较级.根据空后的“than older headphones”可以判断，此处要用形容词的比较级.故填worse.5．who/that解析：考查定语从句.分析句子结构可知，空处为定语从句的关系词，在从句中作主语，且先行词为people，故用who/that.6．up解析：考查介词.turn up为固定搭配，意为“开大，调高(音量、热量等)”.7．depends解析：考查主谓一致.此处叙述的是客观事实，应用一般现在时，且此处主语为it，故填depends.8．truth解析：考查名词.空前的scary是形容词，并修饰空处，故填truth.9．if/when解析：考查连词.根据句意可知，空处引导状语从句，既可表条件也可表时间，故用if/when.10．listening解析：考查固定搭配.spend time doing sth.表示“花时间做某事”，故用listening.Ⅳ短文改错(2018·长沙高中毕业生五月供题)It snowed last night, when was quite rare here in Western Washington State. School canceled for the day and the neighborhood kids were so exciting! A couple of my young neighbors knocked polite on my door and asked if they could all play in their courtyard.

课时规范练38(选修7Module4~Module6)Ⅰ.阅读理解A(2018·湖北八校第一次联考)LAS VEGAS-It was different in the light of day.There was no “pop,pop,pop” of gunfire,no screams.Just a quite lot of cars abandoned by those,like Kassidy Owen,who escaped with their lives.“It’s strange to hear the silence,”Owen said,“because all I remember was the noise.”The 22-year-old was one of dozens of concertgoers who returned to the scene of the Route 91 Harvest festival on Wednesday morning to fetch the vehicles they left behind as they fled from a gunman raining down bullets from high above in the tower of the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino across the street.Survivors of the deadly mass shooting in Las Vegas on Sunday needed their cars to move on with their lives——to get back to work,to school,home.It was the first time they were returning to a scene that would forever change them,when joy and celebration and music turned into killing and horror.Before they could move forward,they had to go back to the place where they thought they were going to die.Owen had run to her car to hide and had tried to drive away,but she couldn’t.People were running,bodies dropped to the ground,and cars bottlenecked in the parking lot.During a brief pause after more than 10 minutes of gunfire,she worried the lights of her SUV made everyone inside a shining target.“They’re shooting again!”her best friend’s brother screamed.“Turn off the car!”That’s when she got out and fled.“I just remember shutting the door and running,”Owen said.Now,nearly three days later,she was back,sitting in the driver’s seat of her SUV.Her eyes were swollen and red.This was a long way from over.“You just keep hearing the gunshots in your head,”Owen said.1.Why did Kassidy Owen return to the scene of terror?A.To get back her car for daily life.B.To show sympathy to the victims.C.To search for her missing friends.D.To look into the cause of the shooting.2.Where was the gunman when the mass shooting happened?A.Behind a car.B.In the parking lot.C.On the stage.D.In a tall building.3.Why did Owen keep hearing the gunshots in her head?A.Because she had escaped being caught.B.Because she wanted to find the gunman.C.Because she couldn’t rid herself of those terrible scenes.D.Because she had saved others’ lives by turning off the car.4.Where is the text probably taken from?A.A story book.B.A newspaper.C.A guide book.D.A research report.〚导学号00420153〛BIn a new study conducted by University of Virginia’s Claire Cameron Ponitz and Oregon State University’s Megan McClelland,the researchers found that kindergartners who had high levels of self-regulation in the fall did better on tests of reading,vocabulary,and math in the spring than children with low levels of self-regulation.Dr Ponitz has pointed that the ability to control and direct one’s own feelings,thoughts,and actions is self-regulation.It can be as simple as a child raising his hand when asking a question in class,or as complex as a child controlling his feelings when disappointed or angry.While the ability to self-regulate has long been considered as an essential part of a child’s healthy emotional development,self-regulation is increasingly being seen as a good predictor of a child’s academic success.According to Dr McClelland,a number of studies have found thatself-regulation largely predicts literacy (读写能力)outcomes in children.In their research,McClelland and Ponitz found that aspects of self-regulation not only predicted literacy outcomes in preschool and elementary school,but also predicted the gains in literacy children made during that time.Good self-regulation skills are also important for a child’s social development.“Self-regulation helps children succeed in classroom environment,” McClelland says.“The children who can successfully handle these learning environments have better relationships with their teachers,are more liked by their classmates,and do better academically.They are also more motivated to achieve because of these skills.”The good news for parents and educators is that easy ways to help children develop self-regulation skills may be as close as the local playground.Both Ponitz and McClelland suggest that classic games where children must follow directions and wait to take turns may be particularly suited for the development of self-regulation.5.According to Dr Ponitz,self-regulation is .A.the ability to control and direct one’s own feelings,thoughts and actionsB.the ability to handle the learning environment successfullyC.the skills to pass reading,vocabulary and math testsD.the short-term gain in one’s academic success6.Good self-regulation skills are important for a child in the following aspects except .A.his emotional developmentB.his academic successC.his social developmentD.his classic games7.To develop self-regulation,children can .A.take part in classic gamesB.take some coursesC.be taught by their parentsD.follow their teachers’ directions8.The passage is mainly about .A.how to develop children’s self-regulation skillsB.importance of self-regulation for academic successC.importance of self-regulation for kindergartnersD.the key to successful students〚导学号00420154〛Ⅱ.七选五阅读理解(2017·福建泉州二模)HowtoCommunicateWithaDeafPersonCommunicating with a deaf person doesn’t have to be as difficult as it might seem.The trick is to be patient,straightforward,and to remember that deaf people communicate visually.Method 1:Starting Your Conversation1You can do this by moving into the person’s field of vision and waving from a polite distance,or by tapping the person gently on the shoulder.Position yourself carefully.Make sure that the light in the room is shining directly onto your face,and that you’re not standing with your back to a light.2Find out how the person prefers to communicate.Some deaf people are better lip-readers than others.Some deaf people may prefer to write back and forth or to use an interpreter.Main interactions between the deaf and the persons who can hear the sound require a combination of thesemethods.3Method 2:Communicating through Lip-reading.Keep your sentences simple and use plain language.4 The more complex your phrasing and vocabulary are,the more likely your deaf companion is to miss something.When someone else is speaking,don’t turn away from the deaf person in your group.5You don’t have to look at the deaf person while someone else is talking,but try to make sure your face is visible.A.Get the person’s attention.B.It’s important not to talk too quickly.C.Or,they’ll miss parts of the conversation.D.If so,it’ll make them feel left out of the conversation.E.Stand directly in front of the person,at a normal distance.F.The best way to know which methods are the most effective is to ask.G.Try not to be too difficult when using your words in the beginning.〚导学号00420155〛Ⅲ.书面表达(2018·河南洛阳联考)假定你是校学生会主席李华,美国一学生访问团将于暑假来你校访问参观。

bedtime.Obviously as the kids get older,they don’t want you around as much,but that’s not the case while they’re at this age,” he says.This routine isn’t just limited to mornings and evenings,Klein says.Ever since he started dating his wife,they both have practiced “relaeans from a Friday night to a Saturday night,I’m not looking at emails,I’m not answering my phone,and I avoid driving.We’ve

high school students is at an all-time low.One in five US high school students in reported using a tobacco product within the past 30 days,an improvement from one in four students just one year

breakfast with the increased BMI(body mass index),but few studies have been carried out into the effect of the other two meals of the day.However,a study conducted at Osaka University concluded that not eating dinner is a significant predictor of weight gain and obesity. 1 .As part of their annual check-ups,the students were asked how often they ate breakfast,lunch,and dinner.Researchers also took into consideration the time of eating,whether participants’ meal habits changed over the course of the study,and lifestyle factors.2 ,the researchers found that those who did so all the time were more likely to be older,more overweight,a smoker or drinker,to sleep for a shorter period of time,and skip other meals more frequently.These results suggested that skipping dinner,which was much less popular than skipping breakfast,could result in weight gain and higher likelihood of being overweight than skipping breakfast.It was significantly associated with weight gain of 10%or more,and having a BMI over 25,which is classed as overweight or obese. 3 .The researchers suggested that the reason why skipping dinner could lead to weight gain is that it makes people hungrier so they end up eating more over the course of the day. 4 .That’s because dinner is typically a meal that lends itself to nutritious foods like lean(脂肪少的) proteins and vegetables.The researchers note that their study had drawbacks:5 .Additionally,they didn’t take into account factors like eI has its limitations after allB.Besides,skipping dinner may mean a lower quality dietC.It should be repeated to assess a wider group of peopleD.Skipping lunch was more likely to bring about the same outcomesE.It followed 20,000 subjects overall above 18 over an average of three yearsF.Although the number of students who said they sometimes skipped dinner was smallG.Students skipping dinner has a stronger association with weight gain and obesity选修7 Module 4 阅读理解题组——练速度Ⅰ.【语篇导读】本文是一篇应用文。

D．Dessel.BMy elder brother Steve gave me important lessons in values that helped me grow into an adult after our father died when I was six.For instance, Steve taught me to face the results of my behavior. Once when I returned in tears from a Saturday baseball game, Steve took time to ask me what had happened. When I explained that my baseballhad broken Mrs. Holt's basement window, Steve encouraged me to confess to it. After all, I should have been playing in the park and not in the path between buildings. Although my knees knocked as I explained to Mrs. Holt, I offered to pay for the window if she would return my ball. I also learned from Steve that personal property (财产) is a sacred thing. After I found a shiny silver pen in my fifth-grade classroom, I wanted to keep it, but Steve explained that it might be important to someone else. I returned the pen to my teacher, Mrs. Davids, and she praised me.Yet of all the instructions Steve gave me, his respect for life is the most vivid in my mind. When I was twelve, I killed an old brown sparrow in the yard with a BB gun. Excited with my accuracy, I screamed to Steve to come from the house to take a look. I shall never forget the way he stood for a long moment and stared at the bird on the ground. Then in a dead, quiet voice, he asked, “Did it hurt you f irst, Mark？” I didn't know what to answer. He continued with his eyes firm, “The only time you should even think of hurting a living thing is whether it hurts you first. And then you think a long, long time.” I really felt terrible then, but that moment stands out as the most important lesson my brother taught me.4．What does the underlined word “confess” in Paragraph 2 mean?A．Cover. B．Admit.C．Deny. D．Agree.5．How did the author feel when he faced Mrs. Holt?A．He was unwilling.B．He felt frightened.C．He appeared challenging.D．He was light-hearted.6．Which was the most important lesson the author learned from hisbrother?A．Care for the property of others.B．The value of honesty.C．Responsibility for one's actions.D．Respect for living things.7．What technique does the author mainly use to organize the text?A．Time order. B．Cause and effect.C．Examples. D．Logical reasoning.CWouldn't it be wonderful to travel to a foreign country without having to worry about the headache of communicating in a different language?In a recent article from The Wall Street Journal, technology policy expert Alec Ross argued that, within a decade or so, we'll be able to communicate with one another via small earpieces with built-in microphones. That's because technological progress is extremely rapid. It's only a matter of time. Indeed, some parents are so convinced that this technology is imminent that they're wondering if their kids should even learn a second language.It's true that an increase in the quantity and accuracy of the data loaded into computers will make them cleverer at translating “No es bueno dormir mucho” as “It's not good to sleep too much”. Replacing a word with its equivalent (对应词) in the target language is actually the “easy part” of a translator's job. But even this seems to be a discouraging task for computers.It's so difficult for computers because translation doesn't —or shouldn't —involve simply translating words, sentences or paragraphs.Rather, it's about translating meaning.And in order to infer meaning from a specific expression, humans have to interpret a mass of information at the same time.Think about all the related clues that go into understanding an expression: volume, gesture, situation, and even your culture.All are likely to convey as much meaning as the words you use.Therefore, we should be very skeptical of a machine that is unable to interpret the world around us. If people from different cultures can offend each other without realizing it, how can we expect a machine to do better? Unless engineers actually find a way to breathe a soul into a computer, undoubtedly when it comes to conveying and interpreting meaning using a natural language, a machine will never fully take our place.8．What does the underlined word “imminent” i n Paragraph 2 probably mean?A．Ready. B．Approaching.C．Helpful. D．Advanced.9．Why is it hard for computers to replace a word with its equivalent?A．Their data is not adequate enough.B．The real meaning of words can vary.C．Their accuracy needs big improvement.D．A soul hasn't been breathed in them.10．What view does the author hold about translation?A．Proper translation can be tough for humans.B．Slight distinctions matter little in translation.C．Some machines will interpret our world properly.D．Cultures deserve more attention than words used.11．What is the best title for the text?A．An Expert's Precise PredictionB．The Complexity of TranslationC．Who Will Be a Better TranslatorD．Will Language Barrier Actually FallDYou'll probably never go to Mars or sing on the stage with the Rolling Stones. But if virtual reality (VR) ever lives up to its promise, you might be able to do all these things — and many more — without even leaving your home. Unlike real reality, virtual reality means simulating (模仿) bits of our world. Apart from games and entertainment, it's long been used for training airline pilots and surgeons and for helping scientists to figure out complex problems such as the structure of protein molecules. Then how does it work?Close your eyes and think of virtual reality and you probably picture something like this: a man wearing a wrap-around headset and data gloves wired into a powerful workstation or supercomputer. What distinguishes VR from an ordinary computer experience is the nature of the input and output. Where an ordinary computer uses things like a keyboard, mouse, or speech recognition for input, VR uses sensors that detect how your body is moving. And where a PC displays output on a screen, VR uses two screens (one for each eye), surround-sound speakers, and maybe some forms of touch and body feedback as well.VR has been routinely used by scientists, doctors, dentists, engineers, architects, archaeologists, and the military for about the last 30 years. Difficult and dangerous jobs are hard to train for. How can you safely practice taking a trip to space, making a parachute jump, or carrying out brain surgery? All these things are obvious candidates for virtual realityapplications.Like any technology, virtual reality has both good and bad points. Critics always raise the risk that people may be addicted to alternative realities to the point of ignoring their real-world lives — but that criticism has been leveled at everything from radio and TV to computer games and the Internet. Like many technologies, VR takes little or nothing away from the real world: you don't have to use it if you don't want to.12．What equipment do we need for virtual reality?A．A keyboard, a headset and a supercomputer.B．A headset, data gloves and a supercomputer.C．A headset, data gloves and a speech recognition.D．A keyboard, a mouse and a speech recognition.13．What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?A．The advantages of virtual reality.B．The influences of virtual reality.C．The importance of virtual reality.D．The applications of virtual reality.14．What is the writer's attitude towards VR?A．Cautious. B．Appreciative.C．Doubtful. D．Uninterested.15．According to the passage, virtual reality means ________.A．experiencing things that don't really existB．creating something that doesn't existC．imagining beautiful things in our mindD．cloning something that has died out第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
