2019年高考英语母题题源系列 阅读理解(议论类)
专题阅读理解（议论类）【母题来源一】【2019·天津卷，D】Would you BET on the future of this man？He is 53 years old. Most of his adult life has been a losing struggle against debt and misfortune. A war injury has made his left hand stop functioning，and he has often been in prison. Driven by heaven-knows-what motives，he determines to write a book.The book turns out to be one that has appealed to the world for more than 350 years. That former prisoner was Cervantes，and the book was Don Quixote（《堂吉诃德》）. And the story poses an interesting question: why do some people discover new vitality and creativity to the end of their days，while others go to seed long before？We've all known people who run out of steam before they reach life's halfway mark. I'm not talking about those who fail to get to the top. We can't all get there. I'm talking about people who have stopped learning on growing because they have adopted the fixed attitudes and opinions that all too often come with passing years.Most of us，in fact，progressively narrow the variety of our lives. We succeed in our field of specialization and then become trapped in it. Nothing surprises us. We lose our sense of wonder. But，if we are willing to lean，the opportunities are everywhere.The things we learn in maturity seldom involve information and skills. We learn to bear with the things we can't change. We learn to avoid self-pity. We learn that however much we try to please，some people are never going to love us-an idea that troubles at first but is eventually relaxing.With high motivation and enthusiasm，we can keep on learning. Then we will know how important it is to have meaning in our life. However，we can achieve meaning only if we have made a commitment to something larger than our own little egos（自我），whether to loved ones，to fellow humans，to work，or to some moral concept.Many of us equate（视……等同于）“commitment” with such “caring” occupations as teaching and nursing. But doing any ordinary job as well as one can is in itself an admirable commitment. People who work toward such excellence whether they are driving a truck，or running a store-make the world better just by being the kind of people they are. They've learned life's most valuable lesson.51. The passage starts with the story of Cervantes to show that_________.A. loss of freedom stimulates one's creativityB. age is not a barrier to achieving one's goalC. misery inspires a man to fight against his fateD. disability cannot stop a man's pursuit of success52. What does the underlined part in Paragraph 3 probably mean？A. End one's struggle for liberty. ..B. Waste one's energy taking risks.C. Miss the opportunity to succeed.D. Lose the interest to continue learning.53. What could be inferred from Paragraph 4？A. Those who dare to try often get themselves trapped.B. Those who tend to think back can hardly go ahead.C. Opportunity favors those with a curious mind.D. Opportunity awaits those with a cautious mind.54. What does the author intend to tell us in Paragraph 5？A. A tough man can tolerate suffering.B. A wise man can live without self-pityC. A man should try to satisfy people around him.D. A man should learn suitable ways to deal with life55. What is the author's purpose in writing the passage？A. To provide guidance on leading a meaningful adult life.B. To stress the need of shouldering responsibilities at work.C. To state the importance of generating motivation for learning.D. To suggest a way of pursuing excellence in our lifelong career.【语篇解读】本文属于议论文，讲述要成功，就需要不断的学习，这样的生活才会有意义。

根据第三段I’m talking about people who have stopped learning on growing because they have adopted the fixed attitudes and opinions that all too often come with passing years.故可知，作者谈论的不是那些没有到达巅峰的人，而是谈论那些不再学习成长的人，故可知run out of steam可知，停止学习，故选D。
53.C【解析】推理判断题。
根据第四段we lose the sense of wonder. But, if we are willing to learn, the opportunities are everywhere.可知，我们失去了好奇感，但是如果我们愿意学习，机会无处不在，故可知，机会总是留给那些好奇心的人，故选C。

根据第五段we learn to bear with the things we can’t change. We learn to avoid self-pity. We learn that however much we try to please, some people are never going to love us—an idea that troubles at first but is eventually relaxing.可知，我们学会承受那些无法改变的事情，学会避免自怜，也学会了无论我们怎么去取悦别人，有些人是无法喜欢我们的，这个观点起初让我们苦恼，但是之后会让我们释怀，故可知，本段作者告诉我们要学会使用恰当的方式来对待生活，故选D。
《高考真题》2019年高考英语母题题源系列专题04 阅读理解社会生活类(原卷版)
专题04 阅读理解（社会生活类）【母题来源一】【2019·天津卷，B 】I must have always known reading was very important because the first memories I have as a child deal with books. There was not one night that I don't remember mom reading me a storybook by my bedside. I was extremely inspired by the elegant way the words sounded.I always wanted to know what my mom was reading. Hearing mom say," I can't believe what's printed in the newspaper this morning," made me want to grab it out of her hands and read it myself. I wanted to be like my mom and know all of the things she knew. So I carried around a book, and each night, just to be like her, I would pretend to be reading.This is how everyone learned to read. We would start off with sentences, then paragraphs, and then stories. It seemed an unending journey, but even as a six-year-old girl I realized that knowing how to read could open many doors. When mom said," The C-A-N-D-Y is hidden on the top shelf," I knew where the candy was. My progress in reading raised my curiosity, and I wanted to know everything. I often found myself telling my mom to drive more slowly, so that I could read all of the road signs we passed.Most of my reading through primary, middle and high school was factual reading. I read for knowledge, and to make A's on my tests. Occasionally, I would read a novel that was assigned, but I didn't enjoy this type of reading. I liked facts, things that are concrete. I thought anything abstract left too much room for argument.Yet, now that I'm growing and the world I once knew as being so simple is becoming more complex, I find myself needing a way to escape. By opening a novel, I can leave behind my burdens and enter into a wonderful and mysterious world where I am now a new character. In these worlds I can become anyone. I don't have to write down what happened or what technique the author was using when he or she wrote this. I just read to relax.We're taught to read because it's necessary for much of human understanding. Reading is a vital part of my life. Reading satisfies my desire to keep learning. And I've found that the possibilities that lie within books are limitless.41. Why did the author want to grab the newspaper out of mom's hands？A. She wanted mom to read the news to her.B. She was anxious to know what had happened.C. She couldn't wait to tear the newspaper apart.D. She couldn't help but stop mom from reading.42. According to Paragraph 3，the author's reading of road signs indicates___________A. her unique way to locate herselfB. her eagerness to develop her reading abilityC. her effort to remind mom to obey traffic rulesD. her growing desire to know the world around her.43. What was the author's view on factual reading？A. It would help her update test-taking skills.B. It would allow much room for free thinking.C. It would provide true and objective information.D. It would help shape a realistic and serious attitude to life.44. The author takes novel reading as a way to___________.A. explore a fantasy landB. develop a passion for leaningC. learn about the adult communityD. get away from a confusing world45. What could be the best title for the passage？A. The Magic of ReadingB. The Pleasure of ReadingC. Growing Up with ReadingD. Reading Makes a Full Man【母题来源二】【2019·浙江卷，B 】Money with no strings attached. It’s not something you see every day. But at Union Station in Los Angeles last month, a board went up with dollar bills attached to it with pins and a sign that read, "Give What You Can, Take What You Need."People quickly caught on. And while many took dollars, many others pinned their own cash to the board. “People of all ages, races, and socio-economic(社会经济的)backgrounds gave and took, ”said Tyler Bridges of The Toolbox, which created the project. "We even had a bride in her wedding dress come up to the board and take a few dollars." Most of the bills on the board were singles, but a few people left fives, tens and even twenties. The video clip(片段)shows one man who had found a $ 20 bill pinning it to the board.“What I can say for the folks that gave the most, is that they were full of smiles,” Bridges said. “There’s a certainfeeling that giving can do for you and that was apparent in those that gave the most." Most people who took dollars took only a few, but Bridges said a very small number took as much as they could.While the clip might look like part of a new ad campaign, Bridges said the only goal was to show generosity and sympathy. He added that he hopes people in other cities might try similar projects and post their own videos on the Internet.“After all, everyone has bad days and good days," he said. “Some days you need a helping hand and some days you can be the one giving the helping hand.”24. What does the expression "money with no strings attached" in paragraph 1 mean?A. Money spent without hesitation.B. Money not legally made.C. Money offered without conditions.D. Money not tied together.25. What did Bridges want to show by mentioning the bride?A. Women tended to be more sociable.B. The activity attracted various people.C. Economic problems were getting worse.D. Young couples needed financial assistance.26. Why did Bridges carry out the project?A. To do a test on people’s morals.B. To raise money for his company.C. To earn himself a good reputation.D. To promote kindness and sympathy.【母题来源三】【2019·全国卷II，C】Marian Bechtel sits at West Palm Beach’s Bar Louie counter by herself, quietly reading her e-book as she waits for her salad. What is she reading? None of your business! Lunch is Bechtel’s “me” time. And like more Americans, she’s not alone.A new report found 46 percent of meals are eaten alone in America. More than half(53 percent)have breakfast alone and nearly half(46 percent)have lunch by themselves. Only at dinnertime are we eating together anymore，74 percent，according to statistics from the report.“I prefer to go out and be out. Alone，but together，you know？”Bechtel said，looking up from her book. Bechtel，who works in downtown West Palm Beach，has lunch with coworkers sometimes，but like many of us，too often works through lunch at her desk. A lunchtime escape allows her to keep a boss from tapping her on the shoulder. She returns to work feeling energized. “Today，I just wanted some time to myself，”she said.Just two seats over，Andrew Mazoleny，a local videographer，is finishing his lunch at the bar. He likes that he can sit and check his phone in peace or chat up the barkeeper with whom he's on a first-name basis if he wants to have a little interaction(交流). “I reflect on how my day's gone and think about the rest of the week,” he said. “It's a chance for self-reflection, You return to work recharged and with a plan.”That freedom to choose is one reason more people like to eat alone. There was a time when people may have felt awkward about asking for a table for one，but those days are over. Now，we have our smartphones to keep us company at the table. “It doesn't feel as alone as it may have before al the advances in technology,” said Laurie Demerit，whose company provided the statistics for the report.28. What are the statistics in paragraph 2 about?A. Food variety.B. Eating habits.C. Table manners.D. Restaurant service. 29. Why does Bechtel prefer to go out for lunch? A. To meet with her coworkers.

The exhibition had record attendance, showing that there is huge interest in Chinese influences."China is impossible to overlook," says Hill. "Chinese models are the faces of beauty and fashion campaigns that sell dreams to women all over the world, which means Chinese women are not just consumers of fashion — they are central to its movement. "Of course, only are today's top Western designers being influenced by China-some of the best designers of contemporary fashion are themselves Chinese." Vera Wang, Alexander Wang, Jason Wu are taking on Galiano, Albaz, Marc Jacobs-and beating them hands down in design and sales," adds Hil.For Hill, it is impossible not to talk about China as the leading player when discussing fashion. "The most famous designers are Chinese, so are the models, and so are the consumers," she says. "China is no longer just another market; in many senses it has become the market. If you talk about fashion today, you are talking about China-its influences, its direction, its breathtaking clothes, and how young designers and models are finally acknowledging that in many ways."24. What can we learn about the exhibition in New York?A. It promoted the sales of artworks.B. It attracted a large number of visitors.C. It showed ancient Chinese clothes.D. It aimed to introduce Chinese models.25. What does Hill say about Chinese women?A. They are setting the fashion.B. They start many fashion campaigns.C. They admire super models.D. They do business all over the world.26. What do the underlined words "taking on" in paragraph 4 mean?A. learning fromB. looking down onC. working withD. competing against27. What can be a suitable title for the text?A. Young Models Selling Dreams to the WorldB. A Chinese Art Exhibition Held in New YorkC. Differences Between Eastern and Western AestheticsD.

The problem of robocalls has gotten so bad that many people now refuse to pick up calls from numbers they don't know. By next year, half of the calls we receive will be scams (欺诈).We are finally waking up to the severity of the problem by supporting and developing a group of tools, apps and approaches intended to prevent scammers from getting through. Unfortunately, it's too little, too late. By the time these "solutions"(解决方案) become widely available, scammers will have moved onto cleverer means. In the near future, it's not just going to be the number you see on your screen that will be in doubt. Soon you will also question whether the voice you're hearing is actually real.That's because there are a number of powerful voice manipulation (处理) and automation technologies that are about to become widely available for anyone to use .At this year's I/O Conference ,a company showed a new voice technology able to produce such a convincing human—sounding voice that it was able to speak to a receptionist and book a reservation without detection.These developments are likely to make our current problems with robocalls much worse. The reason that robocalls are a headache has less to do with amount than precision A decade of data breaches (数据侵入) of personal information has led to a situation where scammers can easily learn your mother's name, and far more. Armed with this knowledge, they're able to carry out individually targeted campaigns to cheat people. This means, for example, that a scammer could call you from what looks to be a familiar number and talk to you using a voice that sounds exactly like your bank teller's, ricking you into "confirming" your address, mother's name, and card number. Scammers follow money, so companies will be the worst hit. A lot of business is still done over the phone, and much of it is based on trust and existing relationships. Voice manipulation technologies may weaken that gradually.We need to deal with the insecure nature of our telecom networks. Phone carriers and consumers need to work together to find ways of determining and communicating what is real. That might mean either developing a uniform way to mark videos and images, showing when and who they were made by, or abandoning phone calls altogether and moving towards data-based communications—using apps like Face Time or WhatsApp, which can be tied to your identity.Credibility is hard to earn but easy to lose, and the problem is only going to harder from here on out.（1）How does the author feel about the solutions to problem of robocalls?A. PanickedB. ConfusedC. EmbarrassedD. Disappointed（2）taking advantage of the new technologies, scammer can ________.A. aim at victims preciselyB. damage databases easilyC. start campaigns rapidlyD. spread information widely（3）What does the passage imply?A. Honesty is the best policy.B. Technologies can be double-edited.C. There are more solutions than problems.D. Credibility holds the key to development.（4）Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. Where the Problem of Robocalls Is RootedB. Who Is to Blame for the Problem of RobocallsC. Why Robocalls Are About to Get More DangerousD. How Robocalls Are Affecting the World of Technology2.（2019?江苏）请认真阅读下列短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

2019高考英语专题公关 专题10+阅读理解——议论文类含解析
2019高考英语专题公关专题10 阅读理解——议论文类方法与技巧题型介绍：议论文是英语中的重要文体，在每年的高考阅读理解中占有一定的比例。
相对于其它文体，议论文阅读要难一些，因此要多加重视。
议论文就是说理性的文章，一般由论点、论据和论证过程组成。
议论文都要提出论题、观点、提供充分的证据，使用一定的逻辑方法证明观点或得出结论。
命题形式：从近几年观的高考英语试题来看，议论文类阅读理解的命题类型主要有：1. 主旨题考查考生对于议论文基本观点的理解，是主旨题设题的目的。
做这种类型的题目要弄清作者想说什么，即作者写此文章的目的。
2. 推理判断题这种题型的特点是以事实为依据，但其结果有绝不是事实本身。
它主要测试考生的逻辑思维能力，侧重于推理。
3. 细节题细节题也是议论文试题的主要题型。
这种题要求考生理解文中的具体观点和具体事实。
三、议论文阅读理解题解题技巧第一，抓论点、寻论据阅读议论文我们要抓住论题，即作者提出的观点、给出的例证及最后得出的结论。
抓住了论题，我们就把我了中心。
第二，注重文章结构，理清文章脉络。
把握文章结构，有利于对文章大意的理解。
从论证方法上讲，常见的议论文结构有以下两类：1. Put forward a question →Analyze the question →Solve the question这就是“提出问题、分析问题、解决问题”的过程。
2. Argument/Idea → Evidence → Conclusion/Restating the idea这就是“由论点到论据到结论或者强调论点”的过程。
第三，体会文章语言特点，把握作者写作态度，准确进行推理判断。
能否正确把握作者的观点和态度是体现阅读能力的重要方面。
一般来说，对作者的总的态度和倾向，必须在通读全文，掌握了论点和论据后，方能做出判断。
在判断作者观点态度时，我们应注意，有时候作者的观点和态度并不是明确地表达出来的，需要我们认真体察。

Bechtel，who works in downtown West Palm Beach，has lunch with coworkers sometimes，but like many of us，too often works through lunch at her desk. A lunchtime escape allows her to keep a boss from tapping her on the shoulder. She returns to work feeling energized. “Today，I just wanted some time to myself，”she said.Just two seats over，Andrew Mazoleny，a local videographer，is finishing his lunch at the bar. He likes that he can sit and check his phone in peace or chat up the barkeeper with whom he's on a first-name basis if he wants to have a little interaction(交流). “I reflect on how my day's gone and think about the rest of the week,” he said. “It's a chance for self-reflection, You return to work recharged and with a plan.”That freedom to choose is one reason more people like to eat alone. There was a time when people may have felt awkward about asking for a table for one，but those days are over. Now，we have our smartphones to keep us company at the table. “It doesn't feel as alone as it may have before al the advances in technology,” said Laurie Demerit，whose company provided the statistics for the report.28. What are the statistics in paragraph 2 about?A. Food varietyB. Eating habits.C. Table manners.D. Restaurant service.29. Why does Bechtel prefer to go out for lunch?A. To meet with her coworkers.B. To catch up with her work.C. To have some time on her own.D. To collect data for her report.30. What do we know about Mazoleny?A. He makes videos for the bar.B. He’s fond of the food at the bar.C. He interviews customers at the bar.D. He’s familiar with the barkeeper.31. What is the text mainly about?A. The trend of having meals alone.B. The importance of self-reflection.C. The stress from working overtime.D. The advantage of wireless technology.【语篇解读】本文通过一份调查结果显示，很大比例的人选择独自用餐，原因很多，比如逃离工作氛围，或者反思自己，但是独自用餐正慢慢成为一种趋势。

练习4议论文A〔2021威海二模〕It's Nice to be Home1 I have been fortunate enough to make trips to many countries.They were wonderful adventures filled with new sights and experiences.And my wife and I have another trip in the planning stages.We're home now and have settled back into our daily routine of life. 2 I find that when I am at home, particularly for a while when we have just returned from a trip , I feel very comfortable.Perhaps it is because everything around me is familiar and the daily routine is so much the same I can move through it almost without thinking. 3 Perhaps it is because we can have meals at home instead of always being in restaurants , although it's nice to let someone else do the cooking , and because I can sleep in my own bed.There are times I think it would be nice to simply stop travelling and stay home and I'm sure I would be very comfortable if that were to happen. 4Yet I guess I am probably a restless soul because I know that after I have been home for a while I will start to think about other places we might go and other things we want to see.We will travel again and we feel fortunate to be able to do so. 5 Still , one of the best things about travelling for me is coming home.I'm very comfortable here at home even if it is difficult to say exactly why.A . I like to travel very much.B. I enjoy local food while travelling.C. I like being home , for whatever reason.D. Perhaps it is because our friends are here.E. And I enjoy my daily life at home so much.F. We want to see as much of the world as we can.G. It's lucky that my wife and I both love travelling.本文是一篇议论文.作者很喜欢旅游,但每次旅游回到家都感到很舒服,或许由于周围的一切很熟悉,或许由于可以在家吃饭,或许由于可以睡在自己的床上.1. A ［根据本段内容并结合I' have been fortunate enough to make trips to many countries.〞和And my wife and I have another trip in the planning stages.〞可知作者很喜欢旅游. ］2. E ［根据第二段首句We're home now and have settled back into our daily routine of life. 〞中的our daily routine of life 可知E 项正确.］3. D ［上句提到Perhaps it is because everything around me is familiar and the daily routine is so much the same I can move through it almost without thinking. 〞下句提至U Perhaps it is because we can have meals at home instead of always being in restaurants.“因止匕过渡句中也应出现关键词perhaps it is because, 故D 项正确.］4. C ［通过第二段的表达并结合第三段首句Yet I guess I am probably a restless soul because I know that after I have been home for a while〞中的关键词have been home 可知作者很喜欢在家.］5. F ［根据上两句I will start to think about other places we might go and other things we want to see.We will travel again and we feel fortunate to be able to do so.〞可知作者想尽可能多地游览世界各地.］B〔2021西安市质量检测〕Each year, many animal species die out.They join the countless species that have gone extinct〔灭绝的〕over the course of the earth's history and many people believe they disappear forever. 6 Now some scientists are focusing on the ability to bring back extinct species.This doesn't mean the plot of Jurassic Park is going to become a reality.The researchers need DNA to clone a species.7 Dinosaurs have been gone too long for any of their DNA to remain in fossils〔化石〕.But there's a very real chance that we will be able to bring back more recently extinct species.8 In 2003 , a team of Spanish and French scientists recreated the Pyrenean ibex, which had gone extinct three years' earlier.The new animal didn't survive long , but scientific advances could improve the success rate.In January, Australian scientists announced that they were on their way to bringing back the gastric brooding frog.That we can bring species back doesn't mean that we should do that.There may be much benefit of reviving〔使复生〕a species, but there's no way to know how it will turn out. 9 Or might it crowd out existing species? Environmentalists worry that our ability to bring species back might cut down support for the hard work of traditional conservation.10 If we can correct our mistake , why not use the chance to do that? As Stewart Brand , a businessman and environmentalist , recently said , “ Humans have made a huge hole in nature.We have the ability now to repair some of that damage.〞A. However , some people argue that the extinction of some animals is really our mistake.B. In addition , most people think that the extinction of some animals is really human's mistake.C. This could even include Ice Age animals like the woolly mammoth.D. However, you might need to redefine〔重新定义〕“fore ver.〞E. For example, would a passenger pigeon fit into its old habitat〔栖息地〕?F. This could even be true to dinosaurs that have been extinct long ago.G. DNA is the chemical that carries the structure of a living thing.本文是一篇议论文,主要讲述了我们可以用克隆手段来使灭绝的动物重新回到世界上但这并不意味着我们应该那样去做.6. D ［空格前指出“许多人认为一些动物物种会永远消失〞；第二段首句指出“现在一些科学家正致力于恢复这些灭绝物种的研究〞；由此可知,口项“然而,你也许需要重新定义‘永远’这个词的含义〞与上文中的“forever〞照应,且引出下文内容,符合语境.应选D.］7. G ［根据上文可知,研究人员需要DNA来克隆一个物种；根据下文可知,恐龙已经消失太久了,它们的DNA存在于它们的化石当中；由此可知 ,此处应是对DNA进行介绍,G 项“DNA是一种携带了生物结构的化学物质〞承上启下,符合语境.应选Go ］8. C ［根据上文可知,我们真的有时机能够恢复更接近现代的灭绝物种；根据下文可知 , 空格后主要讲述的是研究例证；由此可知,C项“这甚至包括冰川时期的动物如猛吗象〞承接上文,下文的例子那么对其进行了进一步论证,符合语境.应选Co ］9. E ［根据空格后的Or〞表并列可知,此处与下文应是对称的一般疑问句. E项“例如, 旅鸽能够适应之前的栖息地吗〞与下文衔接密切,符合语境.应选E.］10. A ［根据第四段内容可知,恢复物种也许会有很多好处 ,但“我们〞无法知道结果如何.环保人士担忧恢复物种的水平也许会对传统的保护物种的艰辛工作产生不良影响；空格后句意：如果“我们〞能纠正自己的错误,为什么不利用这次时机呢？由此可知,上下文之间构成转折关系. A项中的However...our mistake.〞照应下文,符合语境.应选A.］C〔2021成都二珍〕Some people describe American society as a salad bowl while others think of it as a melting pot.In a bowl of salad, all the ingredients are mixed together. 11 Together, however, the ingredients make up a unity.All the ingredients of a salad contribute to the finished product.They may be covered with the same dressing〔调味酱〕,but the green vegetables , tomatoes and cooked corn can all be seen for what they are.From this point of view , America is very much like a salad bowl where individual ethnic groups mix together, yet maintain their cultural uniqueness.People may work together during the day at similar jobs and in the same companies , but at night they may return to their ethnic groups where their own individual culture directs their way of life. 12 Each ethnic group has its own special customs, language, food and traditions to protect and defend.This idea of the salad bowl is referred to as cultural diversity ; that is, American society is a collection of various cultures living together in harmony within one country.13 Here, society is like one large pot of soup.All cultural aspects are mixed together , sacrificingtheir original identity and keeping a bit of what they were to become a new reality.The longer the soup is cooked, the better the taste and the more likely it will be for the mixture to dissolve.In this sense , America can surely be seen as a melting pot where people from all over the world come to live and work together forming one nation.There are dozens of shared symbols. 14 In such aculture , symbols like the flag and the nation's official song serve to break down the walls which separate ethnic groups.Whether a salad bowl or a melting pot , America can be best described as a mixture of both. 15A . Both are correct depending on one's point of view.B. They never lose their shapes, colors or tastes.C. This is why there is so much diversity within America.D. In other words , America is a nation where there is unity in diversity.E. Thus, one needs to abandon one's culture to be considered “American".F. They serve to develop the various ethnic groups to create a new American culture.G. The other theory , which is also used to describe American society , is the melting pot.本文是一篇议论文,主要谈论了美国就像一个沙拉碗或熔炉,来自世界各地的人们构成了美国多元化的社会.11. B ［根据下文中的the ingredients make up a unity 〞和can all be seen for what they are〞可推测出,此段主要论述虽然美国社会就像一碗沙拉,所有的原料都混合在一起,但各种原料却没有因此失去自己的特色,即我们能看到不同种类的文化组成了现在的美国社会.所以 B 项符合上下文语境.应选B.］12. C ［根据下文中的Each ethnic group has its own special...and defend.〞可知,每个民族都有自己要保护和保卫的特殊的文化、语言、食物和传统.由此可推断出,此处解释了美国多元文化存在的原因. C项符合上下文语境.应选Co ］13. G ［根据第一段中的两种观点 a salad bowl〞和a melting pot〞及空格后的3ne large potof soup〞可知,本段要介绍另外一种观点. G项说法和第一段中的第二种观点一致.应选Go ］14. F ［根据下文中的"In such a culture , symbols like...serve to...groups.〞可知,共同拥有的符号有助于消除不同民族之间的隔膜,创造出一种新文化.F项符合上下文语境,且They〞指代上文中的symbols〞.应选F.］15. D ［该段是对全文内容的总结.即美国是一个具有多样性和统一性的国家. D项符合语境,是对前面一句内容的另一种表述.应选D.］D〔2021长春^^测〕Happiness is the only true measure of personal success.Making other people happy is the highest expression of success. 16 With that in mind , here are some suggestions that will immediately increasethe amount of happiness in your life :17If there's any big truth about life , it's that it usually lives up to your expectations.Therefore , when you rise from bed , make your first thought : " Somethingwonderful is going to happen today. Guess what? You're probably right.Take time to plan and prioritize〔优先处理〕.The most common source of stress is the thought that you've got too much work to do.Rather than worry about it , pick one thing that will move you closer to your highest goal and purpose in life.Then do that first.Eat high quality food slowly.18 Even so, at least once a day try to eat something really delicious , like a small chunk of fine cheese or an imported chocolate.Taste it, focus on it and enjoy it.Let go of your results.The big enemy of happiness is worry , which comes from focusing on events that are outside your control.Once you've taken action , there's usually nothing more you can do. 19End each day with gratitude.Just before you go to bed , write down at least one wonderful thing that happened.It might be something as small as making a child laugh or something as huge as a million dollar deal. 20A. Start each day with expectations.B. Give a gift to everyone you meet.C. Think about the thing that makes your head hurt.D. It's impossible to make others happy if you're not happy.E. Whatever it is , be grateful for that day because it will never come again.F. Sometimes we can't avoid eating something quickly and running.G. Focus on the job at hand rather than some fantasy that might happen.本文是一篇议论文,讲述了我们应该如何来增加我们生活中的幸福感.16. D ［根据前文Making other people happy is the highest expression of success.和后文With that in mind...in your life 〞可知这里与D项“自己不开心时想要使别人开心 ,那是不可能的事情〞语境相符.］17. A ［根据后文“If there's any big truth about life , it's that it usually lives up to your expectations."可知,不要辜负你的期望,所以应该是每天都带着期望开始新一天的生活,故选A项.］18.

E ［根据...write down at least one wonderful thing that happened.〞可知,要写下至少一件当天发生的美好的事情,这与E项语境相符.］E〔2021云南红河州检测〕We spend so much time waiting to be loved , hoping love will find us , and looking for that special love.Unfortunately , that's not usually how life works.To be loved , you should love and respect yourself as much as you do others.In order to love someone , you should love yourself.•Stop comparing yourself to others. 21 We all have different gifts.When you compare yourself to others for what they have , whether it is a car , a house, or a job, it makes you feel bad about yourself.Really be grateful about everything you have.Gratitude keeps your heart open to love.•Practise receiving love.To truly love is to be able to receive it.When someone loves you , does some kind deeds to you , or says kind words , accept it. 22 Know that you are worthy of love.It is important to accept a gift of love by others.You give yourself a chance to learn more about yourself that you are lovable. 23•24 Write about your experiences, good and bad.When you write down good experiences, allow yourself to feel those feelings.When you remember bad experiences, allow yourself to feel self— passion is not self-pity, but rather willingness to accept one's own pain and regret.•Stop trying to be perfect.Stop blaming yourself for being less than perfect. 25Just follow all the steps above and don't let anyone's expectations of you put any pressure on you.A.

《高考真题》2019年高考英语母题题源系列专题06 阅读理解环保类(解析版)
专题06 阅读理解（环保类）【母题来源一】【2019·北京卷，D】环保类By the end of the century，if not sooner，the world's oceans will be bluer and greener thanks to a warming climate，according to a new study.At the heart of the phenomenon lie tiny marine microorganisms(海洋微生物)called phytoplankton. Because of the way light reflects off the organisms，these phytoplankton create colourful patterns at the ocean surface. Ocean colour varies from green to blue，depending on the type and concentration of phytoplankton. Climate change will fuel the growth of phytoplankton in some areas，while reducing it in other spots，leading to changes in the ocean's appearance.Phytoplankton live at the ocean surface，where they pull carbon dioxide(二氧化碳)into the ocean while giving off oxygen. When these organisms die，they bury carbon in the deep ocean，an important process that helps to regulate the global climate. But phytoplankton are vulnerable to the ocean's warming trend. Warming changes key characteristics of the ocean and can affect phytoplankton growth，since they need not only sunlight and carbon dioxide to grow，but also nutrients.Stephanie Dutkiewicz，a scientist in MIT's Center for Global Change Science，built a climate model that projects changes to the oceans throughout the century. In a world that warms up by 3℃，it found that multiple changes to the colour of the oceans would occur. The model projects that currently blue areas with little phytoplankton could become even bluer. But in some waters，such as those of the Arctic，a warming will make conditions riper for phytoplankton，and these areas will turn greener. “Not only are the quantities of phytoplankton in the ocean changing. ”she said，“but the type of phytoplankton is changing. ”42. What are the first two paragraphs mainly about?A. The various patterns at the ocean surface.B. The cause of the changes in ocean colour.C. The way light reflects off marine organisms.D. The efforts to fuel the growth of phytoplankton.43. What does the underlined word “vulnerable”in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. Sensitive.B. BeneficialC. SignificantD. Unnoticeable44. What can we learn from the passage?A. Phytoplankton play a declining role in the marine ecosystem.B. Dutkiewicz's model aims to project phytoplankton changesC. Phytoplankton have been used to control global climateD. Oceans with more phytoplankton may appear greener.45. What is the main purpose of the passage？A. To assess the consequences of ocean colour changesB. To analyse the composition of the ocean food chainC. To explain the effects of climate change on oceansD. To introduce a new method to study phytoplankton【语篇解读】本文为说明文。

The Cost of ThinkingDespite their many differences, all human beings share several defining characteristics. such as large brains and the ability to walk upright on two legs.The first unique human characteristic is that humans have extraordinarily large brains compared with other animals. It seems obvious that evolution should select for larger brains. Mammals(哺乳动物)weighing sixty kilograms have an average brain size of 200 cm2. Modern man has a brain averaging 1200-1400 cm2. We are so fond of our high intelligence that we assume that when it comes to brain power, more must be better. Unfortunately, that is not the case.The fact is that a huge brain is a huge drain—consumption of energy—on the body. I's not easy to carry around, especially when boxed inside a massive skull(倾骨). It's even harder to provides energy. In modern man, the brain accounts for about 2-3%of total body weight but it consumes 25% of the body's energy when the body is at rest. By comparison, the brains of apes(类人猿)require only 8%of rest-time energy. Early humans pad for their large brains in two ways. Firstly, they spent more time in search food. Secondly, their muscles grew smaller and weaker. It's hardly an obvious conclusion that this is a good way to survive. A chimpanzee(黑猩猩) can't win an argument with a modern man, but it can tear the man apart like a rag doll.Another unique human characteristic is that we walk upright. Standing up, it's easier to find food or enemies. In addition, their arms that are unnecessary for moving around are freed for other purposes, like throwing stones or signaling. As a result, humans can perform very complex tasks with their hands.Yet walking upright has its disadvantage. The bone structure of our ancestors developed for millions of years to support a creature that walked on all fours and has a relatively small head. Adjusting to an upright position was quite a challenge, especially when the bones had to support an extra-large skull. Humankind paid for its broad vision and skillful hands backaches and painful necks.We assume that a large brain makes huge advantages. It seems obvious that these have made humankind the most powerful animal on earth. But humans enjoyed all of these advantages for a full 2 million years during which they remained weak and marginal creature. Thus humans who lived a million years agodespite their big brains and sharp stone tools, lived in constant fear of meat-eating animals.【语篇解读】本文为说明文。
