Module 4 Section ⅢⅠ.阅读理解[2019·江西高考] The light from the campfire brightened the darkness, but it could not pre v ent W1 the damp cold of Dennis's Swamp(沼泽地) creeping into their bones. It was a strange place. Martin and Tom wished that they had not accepted Jack's dare. They liked camping, but not near this swamp.“So,” Martin asked as they sat watching the hot coals. “How did this place get its name?”“Are you sure you want to hear it? It's a scary story,” warned Jack.“Of course!”cried out Tom. “If there w ere anything to be scared of,you w ouldn't ha v e chosen this place!”S“OK, but don't say I didn't w arn W2 you,” said Jack, and he began his tale.“Way back in time P1, a man called Dennis tried to start a farm here. He built that cottage over there to live in. In those days,the area looked quite different—it w as co v ered w ith P2 tall trees and the swamp was a crystal-clear river. After three hard years, Dennis had cleared several fields and planted crops. He w as so proud of P3 his success that he refused to listen to advice.”“‘You are clearing too much land,’ warned one old man. ‘The land is a living thing. It will hit back at you if you abuse W3 it. ’”“‘Silly fool,’ said Dennis to himself. ‘If I clear more land, I can grow more crops. I'll become wealthier. He's just jealous! ’”“Dennis continued to chop down trees. Small animals that relied on P4 them for food and shelter were destroyed. He was so eager to expand his farm that he did not notice the river flowing slowly towards his door. He did not notice salt seeping to the surface of the land. He did not notice swamp plants choking all the native plants.”“What happened?” Martin asked. It was growing colder. He trembled, twisting his body closer to the fire.“The land hit back-just as the old man warned,” Jack shrugged. “Dennis disappeared. Old folks around here believe that swamp plants moved up from the river and dragged him underwater. His body was never found.”“What a stupid story,”laughed Tom. “Plants can't...” Before he had finished speaking, he screamed and fainted (晕倒). The other two boys jumped up with fright, staring at P5 Tom. Suddenly, they burst out laughing P6. Some green swamp ivy(常春藤) had covered Tom'sface. It was a while before Tom could appreciate W4 the joke.1. The underlined word “dare” in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to ________.A. courageB. assistanceC. instructionD. challenge2. Why did Jack tell Tom and Martin the story?A. To frighten them.B. To satisfy their curiosity.C. To warn them of the danger of the place.D. To persuade them to camp in the swamp.3. Why did Dennis ignore the warning of the old man?A. The old man envied him.B. The old man was foolish.C. He was too busy to listen to others.D. He was greedy for more crops.4. Why did Tom scream and faint?A. He saw Dennis's shadow.B. He was scared by a plant.C. His friend played a joke on him.D. The weather became extremely cold.5. What lesson can we learn from the story of Dennis?A. Grasp all, lose all.B. No sweat, no sweet.C. It is no use crying over spilt milk.D. He who makes no mistakes makes nothing.本文主要讲述了三个人在沼泽地附近露营以及Dennis's Swamp名字的由来。
1. D 考查词义猜测。
由语境可知,他们去沼泽地野营应该是接受了杰克的挑战。
2. B 考查推理判断。
根据第二、三、四段他们的对话可知,Jack多次警告他们这个故事吓人,但经不住他们的请求还是告诉他们了,可知讲这个故事并不是为了吓他们,而是为了满足他们的好奇心。
3. D 考查细节理解。
由第八段“If I clear more land, I can grow more crops. I'll become wealthier. He's just jealous!”可知他想有更多的土地,种更多的庄稼,变得更富有,还认为老人在嫉妒他。
由此可知他不听老人的劝告是因为他想种更多的庄稼。
4. B 考查细节理解。
由最后一段倒数第二句“Some green swamp ivy (常春藤) had covered Tom's face.”可知他晕倒的原因是因为他被常春藤吓到了。
5. A 考查推理判断。
综观全文可知贪婪的Dennis因为其贪婪,结果失去了一切,故A项“贪多必失”,符合语境。
W重点单词1. prevent v. 阻止2. warn v. 警告3. abuse v. 滥用4. appreciate v. 欣赏,感激P重点短语1. in time 及时,迟早2. be covered with 被……覆盖3. be proud of 以……而自豪/骄傲4. rely on 依靠,依赖,指望5. stare at 凝视,盯着看6. burst out laughing突然大笑S长难句译文:如果有什么害怕的,你就不会选择这个地方了。
剖析:这是一个主从复合句,if引导的是虚拟条件句,与现在事实相反,用过去时,be动词用were;主句与过去事实相反,用would_have+过去分词。
Ⅱ.七选五根据短文内容,从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
选项中有两项为多余选项。

They say they’re “under the weather”, not feeling good about this time of year.As I stood outside with my two dogs yesterday, it was so cold that my nose and face felt frozen and my ears were sitting.Of course, that doesn’t matter to Ricky and Lucy.They have a routine they must go through to find just the fighting spot no matter how cold or hot it is. So I wait.But this time it was different.As cold as it was, I suddenly was excited thinking about how wonderful this extreme cold really was.Then the sun broke through the clouds and memories of summer’s extremely hot days flashed through my mind.I could remember standing in the heat of the afternoon, with sweat pouring down my brow and the hot, burning sun against my face.I reminded myself then and there that in the cold of the winter I would wish I had this heat.I was grateful for the extremes.Without the extremes in my life, I would never appreciate the days when things were just right.Without the extremes, life would be boring.It’s being pushed to one of the extremes that makes us appreciate the middle more.Health challenges remind us that we need to pay more attention to how we live.Financial extremes remind us that when things go smoothly it’s also time to save f or raining days.I’ve come to the conclusion that all too often I find a reason not to be happy with where I am at that moment.Whether it’s hot or cold, good health or bad, in the money or out of it, I always want it to be different.I’m tired of being “Under the Weather!”1.What is the author’s attitude towards the extremes in life?A.Grateful.B.Critical.C.Sensitive.D.Unconcerned.2.That day the writer waited in the terrible cold because _______.A.his dogs wanted to huntB.his dogs had a routineC.he wanted to be differentD.he wanted to face the cold bravely3.The underlined word “nasty” in the third paragraph can be replaced by_______.A.unpleasantB.violentC.favorableD.unusual4.What is the best title for this passage?A.Follow the RoutineB.Two Extremes in LifeC.Weather InformationD.Changes Should Be ExpectedⅣ. 任务型阅读[2012哈尔滨模拟]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。

He made the Rock & Roll music popular around the world. He sold millions of records and made many successful films, and he helped change the direction of popular music in the 1960s.Elvis Presley was born in a poor family in 1935. His parents were simple country people who often took him to church, where he learned to sing and he never forgot the kind of songs that he used to sing in church as a child.When he was a teenager, Elvis moved from Toledo to Memphis in Tennessee, where he attended high school, but he was not a good student. His only real interest was singing. He began to sing in the style that is called “country and western”.In 1955, he recorded some songs for his mother's birthday. The people at the recording studio liked his singing because it sounded a little like the music, which black people used to sing in the American South. It was called “blues”.Shortly after that, Elvis met Tom Parker, who became his manager and arranged concerts for him across the United States and new recording as well. Soon Elvis became famous all over the country. Later, Elvis went to Hollywood and began to appear in films like Love Me Tender and King Creole.But Elvis found it hard to live with success, like many other famous people. He began to take drugs and his health began to suffer. When he died at an early age of 42 in 1977, millions of fans were shocked “The King Is Dead!” the newspaper said But today his memory and his music live on and he will always be remembered as the King of Rock Roll.1. From this passage, we can infer that .A. the church song had a great effect on himB. the church song didn't have any effect on himC. he still sang in churches when he grew upD. his parents sent him to church instead of school2. Elvis is remembered as the King of Rock & Roll,which mixeswith .A. Rock Roll;country musicB. Rock & Roll;bluesC. country music; bluesD. blues;other forms of music3. Which is the right order of Elvis Presley's life?a. Elvis went to high school in Memphis.b. Elvis was born in Tuledo, Mississippi.c. Tom Parker became Elvis's manager.d.
