2021年全国新高考高三考前冲刺英语阅读强化训练(两套,含答案解析)

2021年全国新高考高三考前冲刺英语阅读强化训练(两套,含答案解析)阅读强化训练(一)(建议用时:15分钟)Ⅰ阅读理解Shortly after World War Ⅱ,a Dutch art dealer was arrested(逮捕) forsecretly selling paintings by Vermeer (1632-1675) to the Nazis whoinvaded Holland during the war. Because Vermeer is considered to be one ofHolland’s best painters, the dealer was charged with selling nationaltreasures to the enemy. To avoid the punishment for this serious crime, headmitted that the paintings were forgeries(伪造品), or fakes—he hadpainted them himself and fooled the art world and the Nazis. Today, expertsagree that the forgeries do not look like Vermeer’s other works. Why, then, did the art world accept the fakes as real?One reason why they were accepted was that the forgeries actually looked different than Vermeer’s other works. The dealer had claimed(声称) that the forgeries were from an unknown period early in Vermeer’s art career. Because painters’ styles often change throughout their careers, art historians at the time did not expect the “new discoveries” to look exactly like the known works of Vermeer. In fact, because they did not look similar to the known works, experts did not bother to look at them carefully. This is because experts expect a forger to copy famous paintings as closely as possible. Once the art dealer’s first forgeries were accepted as real, he was free to make more. The others closely matched the first paintings in style, so they were also accepted as real Vermeer paintings from the same early period.Another reason experts were fooled is what some historians call The Emperor’s New Clothes effect. In Hans Christian Andersen’s story, The Emperor’s Ne w Clothes, two criminals convince an emperor that he is wearing beautiful clothes, when he is actually naked(赤裸的). No one in the empire wants to admit that they cannot see the clothes because they believe the clothes are magic and that only good people can see them. Similarly, the art world was influenced by a famous art historian, Wilhelm von Bode, who said the forgeries were some of Vermeer’s best works. Because von Bode was highly respected, other experts began praising the “new discoveries”.At the time, this made it difficult to criticize(批评) the paintings or suggest that they were fakes.【解题导语】本文是一篇记叙文。

AWith the infection being brought under control, more and more galleries and museums are reopening. While many museums have been putting exhibitions online, visitors still prefer to enjoy works of art in person. Here are four major art exhibitions that are held offline.The Palace Museum(Dec. 10-Feb. 15)The exhibition, Everlasting Splendor which is being held in the Meridian Gate Galleries, marks the 600th anniversary of China’s imperial palace. Over 400 cultural relics are displayed at the exhibition, reflecting the history of the Forbidden City’s construction, the development of its layout, and how it has been protected and restored in the past decades.The National Museum of China(Jan. 4-Mar. 29)The exhibition, A Sail Over Miles, offers a brief review of the ancient Silk Road in ceramics(陶瓷). It guides visitors through the manufacturing, export and shipping routes from the Tang Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty with over 300 ceramic relies, including a pot dug from Nanhai No 1, a Chinese cargo ship dating back more than 800 years. The exhibition also shows Japanese, Korean and British ceramics, reflecting theinfluence of China’s porcelain — making techniques in local industries.The Capital Museum(Jan. 1-Mar. 30)The Capital Museum is to host Man of Infinite Refinement: Special Exhibition on the Paintings and Calligraphy of Su Shi, a calligraphy and painting exhibition on the legacy of Su Shi, an iconic figure of ancient Chinese literature and fine arts. The 78 exhibits on display spans from the Northern Song Dynasty through recent history and cover a range of media, including calligraphy, paintings, documents and rarely seen books.The National Art Museum of China(Nov. 30-Feb. 10)On show are nearly 300 objects, including paintings, calligraphy works, carved seals, manuscripts, letters and books. Donation of Rong Geng not only reflects his academic accumulation over the years, but forms the basis for his becoming such a well -rounded scholar in the area of Chinese cultural traditions.Rong Geng(1894-1983), a scholar of Chinese paleography, educator and connoisseur of antiquities, is little known to the general public. However, his extensive studies of ancient Chinese writings and his former collection of archaic oracle bones and bronzes continue to enrich people’s cultural life. In his lifetime, Rong donated to the State nearly 200 bronze objects, all of which are now housed at numerous public museums and universities.1. Which offline exhibition lasts the shortest period of showtime? A. Everlasting Splendor.B. A Sail Over Miles.C. Man of Infinite Refinement.D. Donation of Rong Geng.2. If you are interested in ancient Chinese literature and fine arts, which place are you supposed to visit? A. The National Museum of China. B. The Palace Museum. C. The National Art Museum of China.D. The Capital Museum.3. Which is a right description of the exhibitions above?A. Visitors can only appreciate Ancient Chinese ceramic relics at the National Museum of China.B. Donation of Rong Geng exhibits nearly 300 objects which were once donated by Rong Geng.C. All the exhibits on display at the Capital Museum were created by Su Shi himself.D. Everlasting Splendor displays over 400 cultural relics that have a history of 600 years.BThere can be magic in the touch of a hand that loves you. It brings comfort and a silent promise that says, “I am here and you are not alone.”I memorized every detail about my children. As babies, they reached for me whenever they were hungry or tired or just needed to be held. Sometimes, if they woke in the night, just the touch of my hand此卷只装订不密封班级 姓名 准考证号 考场号 座位号would ease them back to sleep. They clung to me when they took their first steps and we held hands when crossing streets and walking from the car to their classroom on their first day of school.As they grew older and more independent, I noticed that they didn’t hold my hand much anymore. I told myself it was part of growing up, and I should just be glad they could do things on their own now.But when you’ve been needed so much for such a long time, it’s hard to step back and feel unnecessary.Then one day, I was visiting my oldest son in New York, where he was working as an actor on a TV show. As we were about to cross a busy street that was filled with traffic, he grabbed my hand and shouted, “Hang on to me, Mom,” then led me safely across.At that moment, I realized two things. First, my boy had become a man. Second, it was clear that our roles had changed. We still needed each other, but in different ways than before.That scene has replayed in various ways with each of my three children. They have all taught me to lean on them just as they once leaned on me, and that we can always lean on each other. We live miles apart, but stay in touch every day. There is magic and comfort and healing in the touch of a hand that loves you, even if it “touches” you from afar.4. How did the author get along with her children when they were young?A. She was very strict with them.B. She overprotected them.C. She was too busy to take care of them.D. She developed a close bond with them.5. How did the author feel when her kids became more independent?A. She felt lonely when living apart from them.B. She was worried that they couldn’t manage themselves.C. She felt a little uncomfortable when not needed so much as before.D. She was pleased to be able to step back and enjoy herself.6. The author’s visit to her son in New York made her realize ________.A. her son had become mature and reliableB. time with children is always funC. she needed her son more than beforeD. she was unwilling to accept the change in their roles7. What is the author’s main purpose in writing the text?A. To explore how to interact with children.B. To describe the growth of her children.C. To show the power of the touch of a hand.D. To present how parents influence their kids.CThe paper, published in May by the Journal of Marketing Research, analyzed purchases made from a single large European retailer and found that free shipping did encourage customers to buy more. But it also increased purchases of items that historically have higher return rates, such as clothing or products from lesser-known brands. Thus, returns also increased as a result of the promotions, to the point where profits were erased.In one part of the paper, during the typically four-week periods when free shipping was offered, online order volumes rose 11%. But when the cost of returns was compared with the sales proceeds(收入), the authors calculated that on balance the results for the promotion periods amounted to an average 0.7% loss.In one analysis that ran for two months, the researchers found that the return rate for customers who bought low-risk products — like office supplies, or products from well-known brands — averaged about 22%.In another analysis, the researchers attempted to better understand motivations of online shoppers by measuring their attitudes toward free shipping. They found two things were happening. First, consumers saw free shipping as compensation for taking a risk on a product. Second, feelings of gratitude for having shipping costs eliminated(消除) made them happy and thus more willing to make a risky purchase.Prof. Neslin advises companies to look at whether their own free-shipping promotions are profitable before they launch such campaigns. Also, he advises companies to identify which products get returned more often than others and try to provide customers with more information about those products, so they can make more-informed choices.8. What erased the profits according to the first paragraph?A. The risky customers.B. The European retailer.C. The returned items.D. The lesser-known brands.9. What can we learn from the passage?A. Consumers risked purchasing a product when free shipping came along with it.B. Free shipping encouraged customers to buy products from well-known brands.C. Online order volumes rose only when free shipping was offered as compensation.D. Purchases of office supplies also increased during the typically four-week periods.10. What are companies advised to do according to Prof. Neslin?a. Design profitable free-shipping promotions.b. Make sure they have shipping costs removed.c. Provide more information about their products.d. Distinguish products with higher returned rates.A. abcB. abdC. acdD. bcd11. What is the paper mainly about?A. Low-risk products.B. Return rates.C. Increased purchases.D. Free shipping.DAs we enter into adulthood and continue to navigate everything that comes with it — work, kids, mortgage, you know — our childhood starts to feel further and further away.Research shows that major issues in adulthood — from addiction and anxiety to compulsive overeating and relationship issues — can be better understood, and resolved, by looking back toward our childhood.For anyone who experienced trauma(创伤) in their early years, those feelings can resurface later in life, explains Diane Young, a senior mental doctor at South Pacific Private.“Many of us who see ourselves as ‘successful’ adults don’t relate our current behaviors and values to childhood experiences, until something becomes problematic and a professional connects it back — this can often be a light-bulb moment. Childhood is when we learn how to relate, where we develop our sense of self-worth and our interpersonal skills, so even minor forms of trauma, abuse or neglect can have an outsize influence later on in life,” Young says.Want to know about how childhood experiences can affect your adult relationships? Here, Young helps us connect the dots between our past and our present.How is childhood trauma defined?“It is any experience that has a negative impact and is overwhelming to the child. It includes abandonment, neglect, divorce, death, being raised in a family with addicted parents or parents suffering with mental health issues. Some families can look perfect on the outside, but may be common with painful and destructive relational patterns that have long-lasting consequences.”How can you recognize that you have a problem and that it’s linked to past events?“When the behavior, substance or emotions seem to have control of you, rather than you having control of them — that’s a key sign that you have a problem. When thinking about the past, you will do everything to not feel the pain, fear or shame of those experiences. Other signs include feeling on ‘high alert’ all the time, having flashbacks, experiencing high levels of anxiety, codependent relationships and low self-esteem.”How can someone break the habit of repeating past negative behaviors?“Reach out for help — usually this is from a partner, friend or family member. And make the call to a mental health professional — a therapist, or an adviser. There is help available if you reach out.”12. The passage mainly focuses on the fact that ________.A. childhood and adulthood is closely relatedB. childhood has slight influence upon adulthoodC. childhood’s negative experiences are unavoidableD. adulthood has a cure for childhood’s behaviors13. Which is closest in meaning to the underline word “resurface” in the third paragraph?A. repeatB. rediscoverC. reappearD. recover14. The fourth paragraph suggests that ________.A. adulthood is someway a reflection of childhoodB. a successful person is one without problems in childhoodC. childhood experiences are most important throughout lifetimeD. adulthood experiences have little to do with childhood15. Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?A. Problematic families always have painful and destructive consequences on children.B. South Pacific Private is an organization that deals with childhood mental health issues like trauma.C. A light-bulb moment is when a person experiences most troublesome moment.D. When you experience high levels of anxiety, it’s a key sign that you suffer a trauma.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5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。

At the hospital, I just kept telling myself to hold on. Weeks later I made a deal with the hospital staff that once I could roll onto my side, I could be discharged. I am proud to say that just one short week later, I was going home. The day I left the hospital, I made a promise to myself to never give up and to always live life to the fullest.In February of 2013, my life was forever changed when I attended the Executive Assistant Organization's Behind Every Leader event. During the conference, a sweet lady by the name of Alisson Frew dared to ask me why I did not wear a prosthesis(假肢). My short and simple answer was, "I don't have sixty thousand dollars." The next morning I was in tears as I learned that Alisson, Jeff Hoffman, founder of Priceline, and a dozen other people, had bought a prosthesis for me. From the first step, it was apparent to me just how much this would mean to me.For a year I adjusted to the leg and settled into everyday life,until one day I realized I was making a life but not living one.After almost 13 years of thinking that I was confident, I had an unfamiliar feeling sweep over me. For the first time in my life, I was not only confident but I was empowered! I desired to help those around me, to have them experience this unbelievable feeling for themselves.In April of 2014, I started modeling. My dream is that one day a little girl will see me on a poster at her favourite clothing store and say, "Wow, she is amazing, and she only has one leg. I could do that too someday, even though I have a disability."4. What do we know about the author from Paragraph 2?A.She was humorous and outgoing.B.She was determined and optimistic.C.She was intelligent and hardworking.D.She was generous and kind-hearted.5.

What would be the best title for the text?A.An Expensive Gift from StrangersB.How I Survived A Terrible AccidentC.I Lost a Leg but Gained a PurposeD.Stay Strong in the Face of DisabilityCA Japanese company, NextTechnology, has created a robot dog that can tell you how bad your feet smell, by using a powerful sensor fixed in its nose. If your feet don't have a bad smell, Hana-chan will happily wag its tail, if it's exposed to feet that aremildly smelly, it'll start to bark, and if they give off an extremely bad smell, it'll just fall over like the smell caused it to faint (昏倒). Foot odor (脚臭) is a big deal in Japan, where it's customary for people to take off their shoes whenever they enter someone's home. In fact, exposing others to bodily odors can be considered annoyance in Japan. Some of the most brilliant minds in the country's tech industry have been trying to solve this problem. Last year, Thanko started selling armpit (腋窝) fans designed to keep people's armpits nice and dry. Now, we have Hana-chan.The robot dog has a special sensor for a nose, and can tell you if your feet smell just by sniffing them for a few seconds. According to some media reports, Hana-chan can help solve the problem of extremely smelly feet by spraying them with air freshener, but it's unclear whether this feature comes built-in, or if you'll have to pay extra for it.According to researchers at NextTechnology, the idea forHana-chan was inspired by a person who desperately wanted some way to know if his feet smelled. He told us his daughter had said his feet were smelly," NextTechnology's Kimika Tsuji said. "But he didn't want to know how bad the odor was because he would feel hurt. That's why we developed this cute robot."You may be able to make Hana-chan faint with your smelly feet, but it can have the same effect on budget-conscious people. Next-Technology plans to start selling the feet-smelling robot dog next May.8. Under what condition will Hana-chan bark?A. When its nose is fixed with a sensor.B. When it detects mildly smelly feet.C. When it wags its tail.D. When something is wrong with its nose.9. Why is foot odor paid great attention to in Japan?A. Because Japanese have strong bodily odors.B. Because its tech industry is highly developed.C. Because Japanese are especially considerate of others.D. Because Japanese are usually barefooted at others' home.10.What can be inferred about Hana-chan from the text?A. Its idea comes from Kimika Tsuji.B. It's already available in the market.C. It can recognize foot odor quickly.D. It has a built-in air freshener sprayer.11. What does the underlined part in the last paragraph imply?A. Hana-chan is no cheap thing.B. People should mind their smelly feet.C. People should be careful about their budget.D. Hana-chan makes people loosen their budget.DTo the untrained eye, handwriting styles may seem random. Some write big; others prefer small; and still others tend toward the unreadable. But a new study shows that your handwriting actually says more about you than you thought.Professor Sarah Rosenblum has been studying cognitive(认知) theory as it relates to handwriting for years. Researchers have already developed a computerized system that measures and analyzes even the smallest details of a person's handwriting, such as the space between the letters and the amount of pressure we apply when writing. Using this system, she discovered changes inhandwriting can indicate when we are lying and even whether someone is in the early stages of Parkinson's disease.Now, Rosenblum, with other researchers, is examining whether changes in handwriting can be used to identify moods (情绪). Researchers broke up study participants into three groups. Each group underwent an activity that put the participants in a different mood—positive, passive, and neutral(中立的), by viewing appropriate movies. After that, the participants were instructed to write a paragraph.After studying the participants' paragraphs, the different moods of each group were evident in characteristics like letter shape and size. For example, the height of the letters written by people in a negative(消极的) mood was significantly lower than that of the positive or neutral groups. Also, participants in a negative mood showed quicker writing and narrower width of letters than those in a positive mood.But why? The researchers explain that it is probably the negative mood that creates a cognitive burden on the brain, leading in turn to changes in handwriting."The findings of the study may help doctors identify their patient's actual mood," Rosenblum said. "In the future, we will try to examine whether we can also measure the level of the mood, i. e. how happy or sad someone is."So watch out: if you're happy, you know it. Your handwriting will, too.12. What can be learned through a person's handwriting?A. The pressure he is facing.B. The lies he is telling.C. The language he is speaking.D. A certain disease he might have.13. How were participants put into different moods during the study?A. By reading moving stories.B. By writing a paragraph.C. By watching certain films.D. By listening to programmes.14. What indicates a person is very happy?A. He writes small letters.B. He writes wide letters.C. He writes casually.D. He writes short letters.15. What is Rosenblum studying?A. How handwriting affects a person's mood.B. How mood is classified by types of handwriting.C. How a person's mood is reflected in handwriting.D. How doctors use handwriting to understand patients' mood.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。

2021届新高考版高考英语小题优练冲刺训练(三)(含答案解析)

2021新高考版高考英语小题优练冲刺训练(三)阅读理解+七选五阅读+完型填空+语法填空Passage AThe start of the U.S. Atlantic hurricane season is just over two weeks away and forecasters are expecting particularly high activity this year. With warmer than usual conditions expected in the North Atlantic this summer, meteorologists (气象学者) have predicted that the season could produce eight or more hurricanes.While forecasters cannot predict how many hurricanes — if any — will make landfall, the potential for dangerous storms to strike the southern and eastern coasts brings an additional problem for authorities(专家) already struggling with the COVID-19.Experts say that the COVID-19 is affecting the capabilities of the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and other organizations involved in responding to natural disasters.Retired U-S. Army Lieutenant General Jeffrey Talley, who now leads global efforts on disaster management at IBM's Center for the Business of Government, said that with FEMA and other authorities engaged with responding to the COVID-19, resources will be limited if a hurricane strikes.“When we look at a disaster…I think of it in terms of how we prepare for, respond to and recover from those types of events,” Talley said “Right now we’re in the middle of the response of COVTD-19. None of us are really sure how long it's going to last and how the response to disasters is going to be different, say, two months from now, six months from now, so on and so forth,” he said.According to Talley, the COVID-19 could complicate the response to a hurricane by interrupting the flow of emergency supplies to areas where they are urgently needed at key moments.Social distancing and stay-at-home orders will also force authorities along the south and east coast to rethink how they manage people who must leave their homes in the event of a disaster. While many states are already lifting some lockdown restrictions, social distancing will still be important for many months to come.1.According to Talley, how could COVID-19 influence the response to a hurricane?A.More people will leave home to fight against a hurricane.B.Rescue materials might not reach disaster areas sometimes.C.Lockdown can greatly reduce damage and injury.D.The pandemic (流行病) makes it harder to predict hurricanes.2.What can we infer from the last paragraph?A.People throughout the country no longer need to stay at home.B.The state governments are confident about dealing with hurricanes.C.Authorities along the coasts will stick to the former orders.D.It is necessary to keep social distance in the coming months.3.What is the best title for the text?A.More Destructive Hurricanes to Be ExpectedB.More Difficult to Forecast Hurricanes ComingC.COVED-19 to Worsen Hurricane ResponseD.Social Distancing Needed in Coming MonthsPassage BAs we know, mental health is in a worse situation among young people globally. 1 This not only lowers quality of life, but has a negative impact on a teenager's growth. To get at the root causes of this decline, a group of scientists conducted a study and found the combination of high screen time and low "green time” greatly affects mental well-being. Children nowadays spend more time than ever in front of electronic devices.The average daily screen time for 8-to-18-year-olds was 7. 5 hours in the U. S. ten years ago. As the study states," This greatly goes above guidelines of 2 hours per clay. " Now the condition is worse by the fact that so many schools are using technology to teach classes. Indeed some screen time can promote connections and enable tasks to be done more efficiently. 2 In addition to troubling nerve stimulation, too much screen time takes the place of important protective behaviors for mental health such as physical activity, getting adequate sleep, and academic activities.The study authors suggest that green time could act as a cure for screen time, essentially balancing its negative effects. 3 The attention systems can be restored in natural environment when they are worn out, because they employ involuntary attention there, which is not tiring oreffortful.4 The great nature could potentially function as a psychological well-being promotion intervention(干预)children and teenagers in a high-lech era.

According to Daniela DeFrino of the University of Illinois at Chicago College of Medicine and College of Nursing, teens rarely stated they were depressed, but they often described their feelings like,“I’m down.I always find somehow to go back to stressful mode.”“Parents can easily overlook these expressions or link them to regular stress,”said DeFrino.“But sometimes there is so much more under the surface that can lead to depression.”DeFrino and colleagues went through deep interviews done with 369 teenagers t aking part in an ongoing health study paid for by the National Institute of Mental Health.The teens, considered at risk for depression, gave indirect clues to their state of mind.These teens are reported feeling angry, a loss of interest in activities they used to enjoy, and either sleeping too much or having trouble sleeping.In terms of the reasons,most mentioned homework pressure and expectations of success.Teens whose moods had worsened talked about arguments with parents, verbal(口头的) and emotional abuse.Two­thirds of the teens had visited doctors for health problems.“Doctors, nurses and other medical providers need to be aware of the opportunities to care a child’s mental health,”DeFrino said.“Teens may be experiencing a lot of internal struggles and difficult life stresses, which need our examination with sensitive questioning and understanding,”DeFrino explained.“In this way, we can find children’s mental health problems and help deal with them in advance.”【解题导语】患有抑郁症的青少年通常会通过间接方式表达自己的抑郁倾向,这一点应引起家长和医护人员的重视。

2021年全国新高考英语考前冲刺阅读强化限时训练(三套,含答案解析,新高考省份专用)阅读强化训练(一)(建议用时:25分钟)Ⅰ阅读理解Brian Greene, a professor of physics and mathematics at Columbia University, has created an online science education platform. He tries to “build a bridge”with things you know about, and then“bring you across that bridge to the strange place of modern physics”.Recently I had a chance to ask Greene about wormholes (a hole which some scientists think might exist, connecting parts of space and time that are not usually connected), time travel and other mysteries of the universe. I asked him a million­dollar question: What if I went through a wormhole and prevented my parents from meeting?“Most of us believe that the universe makes sense,”Greene said. Although there are several interesting theories about time travel, he added, the laws of physics would probably prevent something so illogical from taking place. The good news is that the time paradox(悖论) is open for future physicists to solve.When asked how physics could become more exciting for kids, Greene said that books by Stephen Weinberg, Leonard Susskind, and other physicists, “make it a great time for people who want to learn about big ideas but aren’t yet ready, perhaps, to learn math”.When I pointed out that some students still might find physics boring, Greene said that the key is to teach them about things that are strange. “The basic stuff is important, ”Greene said. “But I think it’s really important to also describe the more modern ideas, things like black holes and the Big Bang. If kids have those ideas in mind, then at least some of them will be excited to learn all the details.”Greene has followed Albert Einstein’s lead in trying to solve the mysteries of the universe. Now he wants kids to do the same. As Greene said, physics is “not just a matter of solving problems in an exam”. It’s about experimenting, showing an interest in strange phenomena(现象)—and having fun!【解题导语】物理学家Brian Greene希望更多的孩子可以对现代物理学感兴趣。

1.A million­dollar question is probably very ________.A.direct B.difficultC.personal D.longB解析:推理判断题。

根据第二段Greene对这个问题的解释以及他说需要未来的物理学家去解决可知,作者提出的这个问题非常难。

2.The books by Weinberg and Susskind________.A.are boring to readB.are mainly about mathC.are popular science booksD.are only popular among kidsC解析:推理判断题。

根据第三段的books by...“make it a great time for people who want to learn about big ideas but aren’t yet ready, perhaps, to learn math”可知,Greene认为Weinberg和Susskind等物理学家写的书浅显易懂,适合普通大众阅读,故这些书属于受欢迎的科普读物。

3.According to Paragraph 4, which of the following does Greene agree with?A.Modern physics is a boring subject.B.Interest plays an important role in studying.C.It is not necessary to learn all about physics.D.It is easy to describe black holes and the Big Bang.B解析:推理判断题。

根据第四段可知,当作者指出一些学生觉得物理无聊时,Greene说重要的是向孩子们讲述一些稀奇古怪的事,并描述一些诸如黑洞和宇宙大爆炸的现代物理现象,如果孩子们知道了这些,他们就愿意了解更多详细的内容。

因此可推知他认为兴趣在学习过程中起着非常重要的作用。

4.In the last paragraph, Greene hopes that________.A.kids can love science and physicsB.kids can do well in physics examsC.kids can have fun with experimentsD.kids can find more strange things in lifeA解析:推理判断题。

根据最后一段的Greene has followed Albert Einstein’s lead in trying to solve the mysteries of the universe. Now he wants kids to do the same.可知,Greene希望孩子们可以像他一样对科学和物理感兴趣,去探索宇宙的奥秘。
