湖南省部分学校2024-2025学年高三上学期阶段检测联合考试英语试卷一、阅读理解Scratchboard (刮板画) is a technique where the artist scratches away ink to reveal a color underneath, usually white. This scratchboard lesson plan is a great way to teach students the importance of highlights in an artwork. It forces them to think in reverse to pull the image from the surface.Overview and purpose: Students will learn the importance of highlights and lighter values in the creation of artworks. Students will learn the process of scratchboard etching (蚀刻).Materials: 9'' by 12'' scratchboard paper, graphite (石墨), ink, scratchboard tools or razor blades, ballpoint pens (optional).Delivery of info: Students will be presented with a demonstration of scratchboard. It is best to demonstrate this technique through the use of a document camera or with smaller groups of students. Graphite can be used to draw the preliminary drawing on the scratchboard paper. Students will then draw images on the surface and use either etching tools or razor blades to scratch away the lighter values and complete a scratchboard etching.Guided practice: Students will work while the teacher walks around and monitors progress. Students will have 7 days to complete the assignment.Address: The 3rd floor, Municipal Art Museum.1．What is the feature of scratchboard?A．Painting with different pens.B．Drawing on the layer below.C．Scratching the ink on the board’s surface.D．Etching some colorful images on a board.2．What will be used in the presentation of this art?A．A lot of graphite B．A document camera.C．Some etching tools.D．Some ballpoint pens.3．What is the purpose of the text?A．To promote a lesson.B．To sell some artworks.C．To introduce a new art.D．To attract more travelers.Somewhere in California, just up a hill from the beach is a high school, where students will meet before traveling to neighboring San Clemente High School on a Saturday fora 2-mile walk to raise money to build a well in a Kenyan village.Most Kenyans live where clean water is hard to access. The good news is that water that falls in the rainy season is stored far underground, sometimes as deep as 900 feet. But bringing it to the surface can be a challenge. Sometimes, it requires heavy-duty equipment. Shallower wells are less costly but still require manpower and technology to work. A single well can supply water to an entire village, and this can be life-changing.Weeks before the first annual Healing Hands for Water Walk Fundraiser event in 2012, students walked in the beach town and asked for donations from businesses. They covered a lot more distance than the 2 miles they would cover during the event as student organizers Branner Grimsley, Klara Gundelach and Solveig Erngren pounded on the boardwalk. “But it was worth it to make a difference by helping these people in Africa,” Grimsley said.Standing on the boardwalk and looking out over the sand to the horizon and beyond, you can see a lifeline reaching from a few dedicated kids to a similar group of kids in an African village. The connection was hard to imagine at first but now seems so real. Students on both sides of the world walk under the same sun. On other days, they would have different places to go, but today, they walk for the same reason: to share the bond of being one human family.In another Kenyan village, a well was completed. As the villagers excitedly operated the hand pump, the anticipation built. Within minutes, a trickle of clean water flowed, then a gush. It was a miracle in such a dry village. Buckets were filled, and children splashed water. The tears of joy flowed as easily as the well water.4．What can we know about building wells in Kenya from paragraph 2?A．It’s costly and useless.B．It’s easy and interestingC．It’s challenging but cheap D．It’s difficult but worthwhile.5．Why does paragraph 4 mention the connection?A．To praise the event’s participants.B．To show the difficulty of the event.C．To share the bond of the human family.D．To highlight the significance of the event.6．What is the last paragraph mainly about?A．The excitement of building a well.B．The requirement for completing a well.C．The joyous sight of drawing water from a well.D．The quality of the water from a local village’s well.7．Which of the following may be the best title for the text?A．From the Beach to KenyaB．Students’ Walk on the BeachC．Walking to a Neighboring SchoolD．Kenya’s Struggle for Clean WaterWhen the sun reaches its peak activity, known as solar maximum, its magnetic (磁的) field will reverse (逆转). This happens roughly every l1 years, marking an important stage in the solar cycle. It indicates the halfway point of solar maximum, the height of solar activity, and the beginning of the shift toward solar minimum.The last time the sun’s magnetic field flipped was toward the end of 2013. To understand the magnetic field’s reversal, first, it’s important to be familiar with the solar cycle. This approximately 11-year cycle of solar activity, driven by the sun’s magnetic field, is indicated by the frequency and intensity of sunspots visible on the surface. The height of solar activity during a given solar cycle is known as solar maximum, and current estimates predict it will occur between late 2024 and early 2026.“But there is another important, less-known cycle, the Hale cycle. This magnetic cycle lasts approximately 22 years, through which the sun’s magnetic field reverses and then reverts to its original state,” Ryan French, a solar astrophysicist, said.“During solar minimum, the sun’s magnetic field is close to a dipole (偶极子), with one north pole and one south pole, similar to Earth’s magnetic field. But as we shift toward solar maximum, the sun’s magnetic field becomes more complex, without a clear north-south poleseparation,” French said. By the time solar maximum passes and solar minimum arrives, the sun has returned to a dipole.The upcoming switch in polarity will be from the northern to southern magnetic field in the Northern Hemisphere and vice versa in the Southern Hemisphere. “This will bring it to a similar magnetic orientation to Earth, which also has its southern-pointing magnetic field in the Northern Hemisphere,” French explained.8．How does the author lead in the topic?A．By citing an instance.B．By showing a difference.C．By giving an interpretation.D．By making a comparison9．What is the relationship between the sun’s magnetic field and the solar cycle?A．Uncertain.B．Close.C．Strange.D．Indifferent. 10．Why did French mention Earth’s magnetic field?A．To make his reasons clear.B．To make his experiments convincing.C．To make his prediction accurate.D．To make his explanation specific.11．What does the underlined word “orientation” in the last paragraph mean?A．Emergency.B．Direction.C．Response.D．Procedure.For the past 20 years, I’ve searched libraries and the Internet for others who are thinking about the possible effect of the breakdown of multigenerational families. I’ve been surprised at how few resources exist on this topic. It’s the main reason I chose to finally write Family Revision.While I’ve expected one of the countless marriage and family writers and thinkers to address this topic, none seem to really understand that the transition (转变) from multigenerational families to nuclear families is at the root of so many of the other symptoms they discuss.Well, the silence on this topic was finally broken and it was not from a traditional family publication but from David Brooks, The New York Times columnist writing for The Atlantic. In an article nearly the length of a dissertation on this subject, Brooks masterfully exposes the rootproblem with the modern family.In the article, Brooks wrote, “When we discuss the problems the country is facing, we don’t talk about family enough. It feels too judgmental, too uncomfortable, and maybe even too religious. But the fact is that the nuclear family has been collapsing in slow motion for decades, and many of our other problems — with education, mental health, and the quality of the labor force — stem from that breakdown. We have left behind the family structure of the past. For most people it’s not coming back.”Many Americans are hungering to live in multigenerational families, in the way that is new and ancient at the same time. This is a significant opportunity, a chance to thicken and broaden family relationships, a chance to allow more adults and children to live and grow under the loving gaze of a dozen pairs of eyes, and be caught, when they fall, by a dozen pairs of arms. For decades we have been eating at smaller and smaller tables, with fewer and fewer relatives. It’s time for a change.12．Which word can best describe the breakdown of multigenerational families?A．Damaging.B．Extraordinary.C．Meaningful.D．Ineffective. 13．What does the author think of Brooks’ article?A．It’s a tradition.B．It’s a victory.C．It’s a comparison.D．It’s a breakthrough.14．What can be inferred from Brooks’ article?A．Most Americans have health problems.B．America is facing a sea change in society.C．Focusing on family-related issues is urgent.D．People benefit from the present family structure.15．What is the author’s attitude to the structure of multigenerational families?A．Dismissive.B．Approving.C．Unclear.D．Doubtful.The frequency of bathing usually depends on your age. It’s more than likely that older people, babies and young children have dry skin, which can lead to eczema (湿疹). 16 . For most people who have relatively normal skin, bathing every day is OK, and there are things you should pay attention to when taking a shower.Skin hydration (水合作用) is ensured by the bricks-and-mortar structure of the dead skin cells on the surface, which are bound together by natural moisturising (保湿) materials such as ceramides. Together, they keep moisture in your skin and prevent it from fading, but frequent bathing can wash this barrier away. 17 . After showering, apply moisturising cream while your skin is still damp, to lock in that moisture, rather than drying yourself thoroughly and then applying cream.18 , but most exfoliating (使死皮脱落) cleaning products can cause scratchs on the skin. In general, if you want to exfoliate, acid-based accelerators, such as glycolic or lactic acids, are more gentle. When it comes to your feet, products containing urea, which breaks up dry and dead skin cells, will soften better than abrasive scrubs.19 . If you have sensitive skin, avoid heavily sweet-smelling soaps, which contain additives that can cause irritation or allergic reactions.In general, soapy water will run down your legs and feet anyway. The upper leg and groin area is the part you should wash regularly, because it can become colonised by pathogens. 20 A．People often want to cleanse their skinB．So taking a reasonable number of baths is good for themC．It is important to choose a soap that suits your skin typeD．When purchasing cleaning products, you must be cautiousE．To protect them, avoid taking too hot and too long showersF．Anyway, you’d better wash thoroughly to remove all the soap remainsG．Remember to always have a break after your bath to keep your skin healthy二、完形填空Last month, I attended a cultural festival in the centre of our city, where we celebrated the theme of kindness through some exhibitions. It was an event filled with stories that 21 us deeply.A young 22 caught everyone’s attention. His name was Karim. He was invited to showcase his country’s traditional arts and crafts.

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage.AThere is a story about a man who lost his legs and left arm in an accident. After the accident, only a finger and thumb on his right hand remained.He was a brilliant, creative, and educated man. He had gained a lot of experience while traveling around the world, so he became very depressed after his accident. He was afraid that he would spend the rest of his life suffering and would no longer be able to spend his life in a meaningful way. Then, he realized that he still had partial function of his right hand and could still write even though it was very difficult. An idea occurred to him. "Why not write to other people who need encouragement?"He wrote to the prison ministry about sending letters to the prisoners. The prison minister replied, "Writing to the prisoners is acceptable, but your letters will not be answered."Filled with excitement, the man knew he could write his letters. He began sending one-way messages of God’s love, hope, strength, and encouragement. He wrote twice a week, testing his strength and ability to the limit. He poured his heart and soul into his words and shared his experience, sense of humor, optimism, and faith.It was difficult to write those letters, especially without hope of a reply. One day he received a letter from the prison ministry. It was a short note from the officer who monitored and checked the prison mail.The letter said, "Please write on the best paper you can afford. Your letters are passed from cell to cell until they literally fall to pieces!"No matter what circumstances life may present, we all have unique experiences, abilities, and God-given talents. We can discover ways to reach others who desperately need messages of encouragement and strength.56. Before the man had the accident, he ________.A. had toured around the worldB. had visited local prisonsC. had tried doing exercise to recover himselfD. had been friends with the prison minister57. In order to live in a meaningful way, the man began to ________.A. receive the school educationB. write to other people who needs encouragementC. meet the people who are depressedD. help other people lost arms and legs58. According to the prison minister, ________.A. the man was not allowed to write to the prisonersB. the man couldn’t go to see the prisoners himselfC. the prisoners were not allowed to answer the lettersD. he was not sure if the prisoners liked receiving the letters59. From the officer’s short note we are told that ________.A. the man would be offered free paper to write letters onB. some of the prisoners were not satisfied with his lettersC. the prisoners eagerly wanted to write back to the manD. his letters were very popular among the prisoners60. What can be the best title for the passage?A. Stories about a humorous PersonB. Popularity of Special LettersC. Special letters of EncouragementD. Relationship between writers and prisonersBNew technology links the world as never before. Our planet has shrunk. It's now a "global village" where countries are only seconds away by fax or phone or satellite link. And, of course, our ability to benefit from this high-tech communication equipment is greatly improved by foreign language skills.Deeply involved with this new technology is a kind of modem businesspeople who have a growing respect for the economic value of doing business abroad. In modern markets, success overseas often helps support home business efforts.Overseas assignments are becoming increasingly important to advancement within executive ranks (管理层). The executive stationed in another country no longer need fear being "out of sight and out of mind." He or she can be sure that the overseas effort is central to the company's plan for success, and that promotions often follow or accompany an assignment abroad. If an employee can succeed in a difficult assignment overseas, superiors will have greater confidence in his or her ability to cope back in the United States where cross-cultural considerations and foreign language issues are becoming more and more popular.Thanks to a variety of relatively inexpensive communication devices with business applications, even small businesses in the United States are able to get into international markets.English is still the international language of business. But there is an ever-growing need for people who can speak another language. A second language isn't generally required to get a job in business, but having language skills gives a candidate the edge when other qualifications appear to be equal.The employee posted abroad who speaks the country's official language has an opportunity to fast-forward certain negotiations, and can have the cultural insight to know when it is better to move more slowly. The employee at the home office who can communicate well with foreign partners over the telephone or by fax machine is an obvious asset（资产）to the firm.61. What is the author's attitude toward high-tech communications equipment?A. Negative.B. Positive.C. Prejudiced.D. discontented.62. With the increased use of high-tech communication equipment, business people ________.A. are eager to work overseasB. have to get familiar with modem technologyC. are attaching more importance to their overseas businessesD. are gaining more economic benefits from domestic businesses63. In paragraph 3, "out of sight and out of mind" (Line 2-3) probably means ________.A. leaving all care and worry behindB. being totally out of touch with business at homeC. being unable to think properly for lack of insightD. missing opportunities for promotion when abroad64. According to the passage, what is an important consideration of international corporations inemploying people today?A. Ability to speak the customer's language.B.

The advantage of employees having foreign language skills is that they can _________.A. fast-forward their proposals to their bosses.B. better control the whole negotiation processC. easily make friends with business people abroadD. easily find new approaches to meet market needsCBeer and fried chicken — Thanks to a South orean drama currently on air, Man From the Stars, this new mix-and-match junk food trend has become popular among young audiences, despite its unhealthy nature. Indeed, South orean TV dramas, or -drama for short, have been a major force in the South orean pop-culture wave that has captured the hearts of young Chinese audiences. According to iQiyi, a video website that features Man From the Stars, by Feb 15, the number of views for the TV drama hit 370 million in China.“It is interesting to explore what elements of those dramas appeal to audiences. It’s obviously more than just pretty faces,” says Yan Feng, a professor of Chine se literature at Fudan University. Reflected by audiences, culture critics and insiders of the industry, youth fantasy, creative storylines, cultural proximity, and well-organized production all add up to -drama’s success, along with, of course, those hand some and cute faces dressed in the latest fashion trends.“Everyone fancies a perfect partner, handsome or beautiful,” says hou Ying, a professor at Chongqing Technology and Business University. “The South orean TV industry is feeding this need.” After Lee Min-ho appeared on CCTV’s annual Spring Festival gala, he became the most famous South orean in China. Only weeks later, im Soo-hyun, lead actor in Man From the Stars, swept the country. Apart from pretty faces, fashion is another highlight of the series. Each time actors from the series wear a new set of outfits, similar clothes experience a sales boom online, according to iao Yi, a Taobao store owner.As is known, with love triangles, incurable diseases, and Cinderella tales, storylines in South orean dramas may seem a bit commonplace. While The Man From the Stars challenges this by putting aliens and time travel into these existing stories, Peng Sanyuan, a screenwriter, says a focus on detail is a key factor in the success of these dramas. “In order to a ccurately target audiences and find emotional reflections with them, more and more female writers are working in the industry,” says Peng about her experience of exchanging ideas with South orean colleagues. According the experts, South orean writers somehow make sense of these plots, no matter how unlikely it seems.66. Why has beer and fried chicken become so popular among Chinese young people at present?A. Because the food tastes very great.B. Because they want to change the trend.C. Because the food is good for their health.D. Because they are deeply affected by the orean TV drama.67. What’s the meaning of the underlined word “proximity” in paragraph 2?A. similarityB. differenceC. conflictD. curiosity68. According to the whole passage, how many elements can lead to the appeal of orean dramas?A. TwoB. FourC. SixD. Seven69. After reading the third paragraph, which of the following is right?A. Lee Min-ho is the lead actor in Man From the Stars.B. im Soo-hyun appeared on CCTV’s annual Spring Festival galaC. The similar clothes worn by the orean actors become very hot online.D. Everyone has a perfect partner, who is handsome or beautiful.70. What makes Man From the Stars different from other -dramas according to the last paragraph?A. Female writersB. Creative storiesC. Pretty facesD. Fashionable clothesPART ⅣWRITING (45 marks)Section A (10 marks)Directions Read the following passage. Fill in the numbered blankets by using the information from the passage. Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.Scientists, doctors and mental health professionals have been studying the connection between color and mood for years. Many now believe that colors can not only cause emotional reactions, but can also correct mood. Colors behave in three basic ways active, passive and neutral (中和的).Active colors are warm colors, including yellow, orange and red. These colors bring confidence. Warm colors can also bring cheerful attitudes. Yellows and golden colors work well in offices, kitchens and study areas. Reds heat up a room. Passive colors or cool colors make people calm, quiet and satisfied. Bedrooms, private areas and bathrooms are great places for blues and greens. Beige, gray and white are thought of as neutral colors. They help to put the focus on other colors or serve to tone down (使柔和) colors that might otherwise be overpowering on their own.You can easily change the look or feel of a room by making good use of different colors. Mixing and matching colors is an excellent way to balance color and emotion, and provide a welcoming feel for guests.To create a feeling of warmth and comfort in a room, use bright, warm colors like yellow, orange and red. These colors are good choices for rooms that appear cool due to limited sunlight. Yellow adds cheerfulness to dull rooms. You can add yellows to rooms which are not closely related to happy thoughts, such as kitchens and laundry room. In rooms where there’s plenty of sunshine, cool colors can provide a calming environment. Sage greens and sky blues are perfect for bedrooms, playrooms and activity areas. Neutral colors, such as pale gray, white and beige, send a peaceful message to your brain. It’s not a coincidence that most doctor’s offices, coffee shops and mental health centers are decorated in neutrals.To make your wall color choices better, pick out furniture that will provide a visual contrast. Cool colors make a room seem larger than it is and warm colors make rooms feel smaller.Title The Connection Between 71.____________Section B (10 marks)Directions Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage and required words limit. Write your answers on your answer sheet.Most American school have boys and girls in the same classroom. But a public high school in the small, rural town of Boonsboro, Maryland, offers a special program. Top students in the ninth and tenth grades can attend single-sex classes for math, science, English and social studies.The aim is to help teenagers keep their minds on their work by keeping males and females apart. Rebecca Brown chooses the students for what Boonsboro High School calls the Academy.Placement in the Academy is voluntary.Students are invited after middle school. They need high marks and test scores and strong teacher recommendations. They also need to be involved in activities.Michael Bair has been at Boonsboro High for twenty years and directs the Academy. His ninth-grade English class for boys centres on books that he believes boys find interesting. He says, “The novels they're reading now are very manly novels. They're novels that deal with the arrogance（傲慢）of man and the pride of man.”Morgan Van Fleet is a senior at Boonsboro High. She likes being in the Academy. She says boys and girls act differently when they are together in the classroom. She says, “To me, it almost seems like preventing your c hances of developing yourself because you’re more focused on ‘Oh, I wish they'd shut up. Oh, what do they think of me?’, instead of focusing on ‘What's the homework? What's going on in this class? Or what's the lesson?''' There is one activity that girls and boys in the Academy do together. At the end of the day, many of them stay and help tutor（辅导）students who are having trouble in school.81.

高考英语模拟试卷一、阅读理解（本大题共15小题，共30.0分）AWhether it's music，art，stage，screen，restaurant and bar deals，or the great outdoors - there's always something interesting going on in Hong KongTim Yip：Blue - Art，Costumes and MemoryWhat：A well-known visual artist，costume designer，and art director for stage and film （particularly on his work for Crouching Tiger，Hidden Dragon，for which he won an Oscar），Tim Yip has been a proud promoter of Eastern aestheticism（唯美主义）for 30 years．For his first large-scale solo exhibition in Hong Kong，Yip explores the nature of human imagination and the depths of the subconscious mind．Organized by Mark Holborn，the exhibition is expected to be praised due to Yip's vision of "New Orientalism"．Where：HKDI Gallery，Hong Kong Design Institute，3 King Ling Road，Tiu Keng Leng，Tseung Kwan OWhen：Until March 31，2019Alice's Adventure at Starlight GardenWhat：Introduced last year，this exhibition became a huge hit，with more than 6，000 photos and videos posted online every day．Created by 27 multimedia digital artists from Korea，the exhibition features a 30-foot rabbit hole for visitors to explore the fantasy world made famous in the book Alice's Adventures in Wonderland．This Christmas，New Town Plaza delivers a brand-new interactive digital version of the literary work．In particular，check out the seventh floor，with its bright lighting，glittering mirrors and rose-shaped decorations．Where：New Town Plaza，18 Sha Tin Centre Street，Sha TinWhen：Until January 13，2019We Travel in Our MindsWhat：This exhibition of sculpture aims to present ideas of theatricality，the fantastical，travel and exchange，with figures that take the forms of humans and animals．Made by artist Ethan Murrow，a professor at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts at Tufts University in Boston，these dream-like objects are inspired by puppetry，music，trade，navigation and beyond，with mixed effects of materiality，sound and imagination．Where：Duddell's，Level 3，Shanghai Tang Mansion，1 Duddell Street，Central When：Until March 10，20191.Which person mentioned in the passage has ever won a famous film award？______A. Ethan Murrow．B. Tim Yip．C. Mark Holborn．D. Alice Green．2.What can be learned from the passage？______A. Tim Yip，a well-known visual artist，is devoted to promoting western arts．B. Alice's Adventure at Starlight Garden was not greeted with viewers' approval．C. Humans and animals sculptures are displayed in We Travel in Our Minds．D. The exhibition in New Town Plaza explores the depths of the subconscious mind．3.What is the purpose of the passage？______A. To introduce interesting exhibitions in Hong Kong．B. To encourage people to go outdoors．C. To advertise some nice bars in Hong Kong．D. To attract visitors to go shopping．BThe way people hold to the belief that a fun-filled，pain-free life equals happiness actually reduces their chances of ever attaining real happiness．If fun and pleasure are equal to happiness then pain must be equal to unhappiness．But in fact，the opposite is true：more often than not things that lead to happiness involve some pain．As a result，many people avoid the very attempts that are the source of true happiness．They fear the paininevitably brought by such things as marriage，raising children，professional achievement，religious commitment，self improvement．Ask a bachelor why he resists marriage even though he finds dating to be less and less satisfying．If he is honest he will tell you that he is afraid of making a commitment．For commitment is in fact quitepainful．The single life is filled with fun，adventure，excitement．Marriage has such moments，but they are not its most distinguishing features．Couples with infant children are lucky to get a whole night's sleep or three-day vacation．I don't know any parent who would choose the word fun to describe raising children．But couples who decide not to have children never know the joys of watching a child grow up or of playing with a grandchild．Understanding and accepting that true happiness has nothing to do with fun is one of the most liberating realizations．It liberates time：now we can devote more hours to activities that can genuinely increase ourhappiness．It liberates money：buying that new car or those fancy clothes that will do nothing to increaseour happiness now seems pointless．And it liberates us from envy：we now understand that all those who arealways having so much fun actually may not be happy at all．4.According to the author，a bachelor resists marriage chiefly because ______ ．A. he is reluctant to take on family responsibilitiesB. he believes that life will be more cheerful if he remains singleC. he finds more fun in dating than in marriageD. he fears it will put an end to all his fun adventure and excitement5.Raising children，in the author's opinion，is ______ ．A. a moral dutyB. a rewarding taskC. a thankless jobD. a source of inevitable pain6.From the last paragraph，we learn that envy sometimes stems from ______ ．A. HatredB. misunderstandingC. PrejudiceD. ignorance7.What is the author trying to tell us？______A. Happiness often goes hand in hand with pain．B. One must know how to attain happiness．C. It is important to make commitments．D. It is pain that leads to happiness．CIt is simple enough to say that since books have classes fiction，biography，poetry-we should separate them and take from each what it is right that each should give us．Yet few people ask from books what books can give us．Most commonly we come to books with blurred and divided minds，asking of fiction that it shall be true，of poetry that it shall be false，of biography that it shall be flattering，of history that it shall enforce our own prejudices．If we could banish all such preconception when we read，that would be an admirable beginning．Do not dictate to your author；try to become him．Be his fellow worker and accomplice．If you hang back，and reserve and criticize at first，you are preventing yourself from getting the fullest possible value from what you read．But if you open your mind as widely as possible，then signs and hints of almost imperceptible finess，from the twist and turn of the first sentences，will bring you into the presence of a human being unlike any other．Steep yourself in this，acquaint yourself with this，and soon you will find that your author is giving you，or attempting to give you，something far more definite．The thirty two chapters of anovel-if we consider how to read a novel first-are an attempt to make something as formed and controlled as a building but words are more impalpable than bricks，reading is a longer and more complicated process than seeing．Perhaps the quickest way to understand the elements of what a novelist is doing is not to read，but to write；to make your own experiment with the dangers and difficulties of words．Recall，then，some event that has left a distinct impression on you-how at the corner of the street，perhaps，you passed two people talking．A tree shook；an electric light danced；the tone of the talk was comic，but also tragic；a whole vision，an entire conception，seemed contained in that moment．8.What does the author mean by saying "Yet few people ask from books what books cangive us．"？______A. The author means that lots of people read few books．B. The author thinks that readers have only absorbed part of knowledge in books．C. The author holds that few people have a proper idea about what content some kind ofbooks should include．D. The author considers that readers can scarcely understand most of the books．9.According to the passage，which of the following statement is right？______A. A reader should find some mistakes when he is reading．B. The more difficult a book is，the more you can get from it．C. To read something is easier than to watch something．D. One should be in the same track with the writer when he is reading．10.What is the possible meaning of "impalpable" （Paragraph 4）in the passage？______A. Clear．B. Elusive．C. Delicate．D. Precise．11.When a writer is writing he often get the whole conception ______ ．A. after a long time's thinkingB. through an instant inspirationC. according to his own experienceD. by way of watching the objects attentivelyDSmall increases in temperature found to add power to storms in the Atlantic．Hurricanes that form in the Atlantic Ocean are expected to gain considerable strength asthe global temperature continues to rise，a new study has found．Using modeling data focused on the conditions in which hurricanes form，a group ofinternational researchers based at Beijing Normal University found that for every 1.8°F （1℃）rise of the Earth's temperature，the number of hurricanes in the Atlantic that are as strong orstronger than Hurricane Katrina will increase twofold to sevenfold．Hurricane strength is directly related to the heat of the water where the storm forms．Morewater vapor in the air from evaporating ocean water adds fuel to hurricanes that build strengthand head toward land．Hurricane Katrina is widely considered the measure for a destructive storm，holding themaximum Category 5 designation for a full 24 hours in late August 2005．It lost strength as itpassed over the Florida peninsula，but gained destructive power fight before collidingwithNew Orleans，killing more than 200 people and causing ﹩80 billion in damage．The study points to a gradual increase of Katrina-like events．The warming experiencedover the 20th century doubled the number of such debilitating（将人类摧垮的）storms．But theongoing warming of the planet into the 21st century could increase the frequency of theworst kinds of storms by 700 percent，threatening coastlines along the Atlantic Ocean withmuitiple Category 5 storms every year．"Our results support the idea that changes in regional sea surface temperatures is theprimary cause of hurricane variability，" said Aslak Girnstead，a researcher with the Center forIce and Climate at the University of Copenhagen．The large impact of small sea-surfacetemperature increases was more than Girustead and his colleagues had anticipated．Theentire study was published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences．Global temperatures have steadily increased，making the past decade the warmest onrecord．Earlier this year，climate researchers reported that the Earth's temperatures have risenfaster in the last century than at any point since the last ice age，11，300 years ago．Theprimary cause，a couseusus of scientists has said，is the rising emissions of greenhousegases like carbon dioxide and methane．Past hurricanes have supported the study's finding that global temperature rise is linkedto more destructive storms．According to the National Center for Atmospheric Research，whilethe frequency of storms doesn't appear to have increased，the percentage of strong ones hasrisen sharply over the past few decades．The trend may be similar further back in time，butcomprehensive hurricane data doesn't exist．12.According to the team of international researchers based at Beijing Normal University，the rise of the Earth's temperature is likely to cause ______ ．A. the coming of ice ageB. less intense hurricanesC. more Katrina-like or worse hurricanesD. more greenhouse gases in the atmosphere13.The ocean water in the region where the storm forms ______ ．A. is heating the hurricanesB. evaporates and becomes fuelC. heads toward landD. turns into water vapor that makes hurricanes stronger14.What result can regional sea surface temperature changes produce？______A. Hurricane changes．B. Increasing greenhouse gas emissions．C. Global warming．D. Destructive hurricanes．15.It can be inferred from the passage that ______ ．A. there is no link between greenhouse gas emissions and destructive stormsB. reduction of greenhouse gas emissions may reduce destructive stormsC. the higher percentage of strong ones rose as more hurricanes appearedD. past records on hurricanes included everything needed二、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共10.0分）Eyesight plays a very important role in our daily life．Every waking moment，the eyes are working to see the world around us．Over forty percent of Americans worry about losing eyesight，but it's easy to include steps into our daily life to ensure healthy eyes．Here are five suggestions for a lifetime of healthy eyesight：Schedule yearly exams．(1) Experts advise parents to bring babies 6 to 12 months of age to the doctor for a careful check．The good news is that millions of children now can have yearly eye exams and following treatment，including eye- glasses．Protect against UV rays．Long-term stay in the sun creates risk to your eyes．No matter what the season is，it's extremely important to wear sunglasses．(2)Give your eyes a break．Two-thirds of Americans spend up to seven hours a day using computers or other digital products．(3) Experts recommend that people practice the 20/20/20 rule：every 20 minutes，take a 20-second break and look at something 20 feet away．(4) As part of a healthy diet，eat more fruits and vegetables each day．Vitamins C and E help protect eyesight and promote eye health．Practice safe wear and care of contact lenses （隐形眼镜）．Many Americans use contact lenses to improve their eyesight．While some follow the medical guidance for wearing contact lenses，many are breaking the rules and putting their eyesight at risk．(5) Otherwise，you may have problems such as red eyes，pain in the eyes，or a more serious condition．A．Eat your greens．B．Eye care should begin early in life．C．They can properly protect your eyes．D．Stay in good shape by taking more vitamins．E．Parents usually don't care about their own eyesight．F．Always follow the doctor's advice for appropriate wear．G．This frequent eye activity increases the risk for eye tiredness．16.

Crouching Tiger， Hidden Dragon， for which he won an Oscar 可知，Tim Yip获得过奥斯卡奖．故选B．2．C．细节理解题．根据We Travel in Our Minds部分中的第一句This exhibition of sculpture aims to present ideas of theatricality， the fantastical， travel an d exchange， with figures that take the forms of humans and animals可知，在We Travel in Our Minds中有humans and animals的形象，故选C．3．A．写作目的题．根据文章第一段第一句Whether it's music， art， stage， screen， restaurant and bar deals， or the great outdoors - there's always something interesting going on in Hong Kong可知，文章的主题是介绍三个香港有意思的游览地方．故选A．本文是广告布告类阅读．介绍了三个香港有意思的游览地方．阅读理解解题步骤：首先对原文材料迅速浏览，掌握全文的主旨大意．因为阅读理解题一般没有标题，所以，速读全文，抓住中心主旨很有必要，在速读的过程中，应尽可能多地捕获信息材料．其次，细读题材，各个击破．掌握全文的大意之后，细细阅读每篇材料后的问题，弄清每题要求后，带着问题，再回到原文中去寻找、捕获有关信息．要善于抓住每段的主题句，阅读时，要有较强的针对性．对于捕获到的信息，要做认真分析，仔细推敲，理解透彻，只有这样，针对题目要求，才能做到稳、准．4.【答案】【小题1】A 【小题2】C 【小题3】B 【小题4】A【解析】1．C 细节理解题．本题要求学生判断单身汉拒绝结婚的主要原因．依据文章第3段第1行"Ask a bachelor why he resists marriage even though he finds dating to be less and less satisfying．If he is honest he will tell you that he is afraid of making a commitment"（…害怕作出对义务的承诺，即不愿承担义务）．C项与之等同，故C正确．2．A 细节理解题．依据文章第4段第1句"带有婴儿的父母要是能睡上一整晚觉或度一个三天的假日，那真是太幸运了．在我认识的人中，不会有人用fun（好玩）来描述他们抚养孩子的感受"，似乎会认为作者的意图是B项（出力不讨好，毫无回报的事）或D项（不可避免的痛苦来源）．实际上，作者真实想法应在第2句中体现：但是决定不生孩子的夫妻永远也体会不到看着孩子成长以及和孙子玩耍的那种乐趣、那种欣喜．这种乐趣、欣喜实际就是一种回报．故A正确．3．B 细节理解题．依据文章最后一句"And it liberates us from envy：we now understand that all those who are always having so much fun actually may not be happy at all．"它把我们从嫉妒中解放出来：我们现在知道那些总是有那么多乐趣的人也许根本就不幸福，B．我们知道嫉妒有时源于误解．故B正确．4．C．推理判断题．作者的意图出现在第1段最后一句："But in fact，the opposite is true：more often than not things that lead to happiness involve some pain"（…事实上，导致你幸福的事情多半伴随着痛苦），故C正确．本文是一篇议论文，阐述了幸福的获得这一严肃话题，试图澄清人们在幸福问题上的一些误解．做这类题材阅读理解时要求考生对文章通读一遍，做题时结合原文和题目有针对性的找出相关语句进行仔细分析，结合选项选出正确答案．推理判断题也是要在抓住关键句子的基础上合理的分析才能得出正确答案，切忌胡乱猜测，一定要做到有理有据．8.【答案】【小题1】C 【小题2】D 【小题3】B 【小题4】B【解析】（1）C．句子理解．根据第一段Yet few people ask from books what books can give us．正确理解"Yes…us"一句含义是关键．其实质含义是："许多人读书时因观念不正确，而仅仅能从书本中得到很少的知识获得很少的启迪"．这样，我们就可以对选项进行逐个分析取舍了．A项意为"作者认为许多人读的书都太少"，显然与我们的分析不符．B项意为"作者认为读者仅仅从书中汲取了部分知识．"这句话只是引文部分的字面含义，所以也应排除．再看C项作者认为许多人对某类书应该包含什么样的内容没有正确的观念．这才是作者的隐含意思，所以是正确的．而D项"作者认为许多读者对大量的书都不能读懂．"这也是一种错误的理解，也应排除．这样就可确定选项为C．（2）D．细节理解题．根据此题只能用排除法，去掉与文章细节不符的选项．选项A 意为"读者在阅读时应该能发现一些错误．"文章中没有此细节，可排除．B项"一本书越难读，从中得到知识也越多．"也与文意无关．再看C项"阅读比观看容易．"根据文章第二段第四句最后一分句可知这正与作者的观点相反，故也排除．最后只剩下D项，应为正确答案．而其内容"读者在阅读时应和作者保持一致．"正是作者的观点，无疑正确．（3）B．词义猜测题．先看上文：作家想把素材安排得像一座完整的大房，使之具体化．接下来就是含有"impalpable"一句．句首用"but"引导，有转折含义．所以此单词意义可能与"具体"相对．再看下文，阅读比观看更复杂和费时．这样，该词的含义就可以基本确定了，应该是"非常抽象难以捉摸的"之类的意思．（这里与"砖头"相比，更加强了这一点）据此可排除A、D项．C项意为"微妙"，意近．但B项恰好意为"难以捉摸的"，更与生词含义接近，所以应选B．此题目C项干扰性较大，注意要避免匆忙选择，而功亏一篑．（4）B．细节理解题．根据文章最后一句A tree shook； an electric light danced； the tone of the talk was comic， but also tragic； a whole vision， an entire conception， seemed contained in that moment一棵树摇晃着；一盏电灯舞动着；谈话的基调是滑稽的，但也是悲剧性的；整个想象，整个概念，似乎都包含在那一刻．解答此类题的关键就是找到并正确理解有关细节．根据最后一句可知"作家构思的获得是通过瞬间的感悟．"可确定：B项为正确答案．本散文谈读书方法．作者认为许多读者因存在太多先入之见而不能从书中汲取它们所能提供给我们的东西．而如果能在阅读时尽量和作者融为一体的话，就可以体会到书本中的许多微妙之处．最后作者又告诉读者可通过动手练笔的方式领会作家是如何创作的，灵感和构思是如何得来的．做这类题材阅读理解时要求考生对文章通读一遍，做题时结合原文和题目有针对性的找出相关语句进行仔细分析，结合选项选出正确答案．推理判断题也是要在抓住关键句子的基础上合理的分析才能得出正确答案，切忌胡乱猜测，一定要做到有理有据．12.【答案】【小题1】C

strength is directly related to the heat of the water where the storm forms． Morew ater vapor in the air from evaporating ocean water adds fuel to hurricanes that build strengtha nd head toward land提到"从海洋中蒸发到空气中的水分越多，那么飓风的威力就越强，然后会直扑陆地"，可知蒸发成水蒸气，使得风暴威力增强"；故选D3．A．细节理解题．本题考查局域海面温度的变化对飓风造成的影响．根据倒数第二段Theprimary cause， a couseusus of scientists has said， is the rising emissions of greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide and methane．，局域海面温度的变化是飓风变化的主要原因，故答案为A4．B．细节理解题．由倒数第二段最后一句Theprimary cause， a couseusus of scientists has said， is the rising emissions of greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide and methane和最后一段的第一句可知，全球变暖是由温室气体大量排放引起的，而全球变暖和破坏性风暴频率变高之间存在联系，由此可推知，减少温室气体排放，或可缓解全球变暖的趋势，从而减少破坏性风暴的发生频率，故答案为B）．本文属于说明文阅读，作者通过这篇文章主要向我们描述了飓风形成的原因和影响因素．考察学生的细节理解和推理判断能力，做细节理解题时一定要找到文章中的原句，和题干进行比较，再做出正确的选择．在做推理判断题不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实，要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断．16.【答案】【小题1】B
