Wrapped in a loop(圈) of red silk hung from the ceiling, Jennifer Bricker climbs and twists to the music. Her head hangs down and her strong arms let go as she balances on her back, high above the ground—a move that is all the more daring because she has no legs. Jennifer was a few months old when she was adopted by Sharon and Gerald Bricker. She had big brown eyes, a bright smile, and huge amounts of energy. When a doctor advised her adoptive parents to carry her around in a kind of bucket(桶), they refused. Jennifer soon learned to walkand runon her hands and bottom, and grew up fearlessly climbing trees and bouncing on the trampoline(蹦床) with her three older brothers. “My parents didn’t treat me differently so I didn’t grasp the concept that I was different. I knew I didn’t have legs but that wasn’t stopping me from doing the things I wanted to do.” At the age of three she was fitted with artificial legs, but she never really took to them—she moved more freely without them. In 1996 the Olympic Games took place in Atlanta. Jennifer loved to watch the women’s gymnastics team, and especially adored the 14yearold Dominique Moceanu who competed for the U.S. When Moceanu and the women’s team won the gold, Jennifer decided she was going to be a gymnast, too. She took up power tumbling, which involves performing floor exercises down a runway. But Jennifer did not want any allowances to be made for her disability. At the age of 10 she took part in the Junior Olympics and by age 11 she was the tumbling champion for the state of Illinois. Jennifer now travels the world as an inspirational speaker and acts as an aerial performer.

Ⅰ阅读理解(2018·南昌十校模拟)I hate Black Friday sales. It’s often a gathering of people who are there for many different reasons. Some are looking for a deal on that one item for their loved one, or perhaps themselves. Their intentions are completely unrelated to the festive time of the year.It was several years ago when my wife asked me to meet her at the local department store on Black Friday morning. They had advertised a child’s bike that she wanted to purchase for our son. We stood with a very large crowd, waiting for the manager to blow the whistle. After a while the whistle blew. It was like throwing a bucket of small fish into a tank of sharks. I told my wife that if we obtained a bike, fine, but if we did not, I was OK with that too.As the pile of bikes began to gradually decrease in size, I saw my “polite”opportunity to wrap my hands around the corner of one of the boxes. I lifted it up and suddenly felt some mild resistance. I looked up to see one of the largest gentlemen I had ever seen in my life. Frightening was not the word to describe his presence. He wore lots of belts of metal studded leather around both arms and even his neck. Tattoos(文身) were an obvious passion of his.I started to give up the box but he gently pushed it into my direction and back into my hands. He then directed it into my shopping cart. He looked at me, smiled, and said, “Merry Christmas.”My wife and I went to the checkout, paid for the bike and went home. All the way home I was thinking that this moment was by far the best gift I had ever received for Christmas. The kindness of a stranger broke all preconceived notions(预想) I may have had of stereotypes and prejudices.【解题导语】本文是一篇记叙文。

Ⅰ阅读理解ADon’t have plenty of time for reading?If you are interested in nonfiction books,here are good choices for you.A Room of One’s OwnThis essay by English writer Virginia Woolf is based on her several lectures given to two women’s colleges at Cambridge University in 1928. In it,Woolf describes that it’s circumstance not talent alone that allows men to be more successful at writing.Women,in other words,spend so much time cooking,cleaning,and tending to their children that they have no time left for art. To write well,therefore,a woman must have “a room of her own”. While on its surface,this essay appears to be only about writing,it is actually about wealth and class,freedom and imprisonment,and the power struggle between sexes.The Art of WarWritten by ancient Chinese military strategist Sun Zi,The Art of War is widely considered to be one of the best books about military strategy(军事战略) in human history. Consisting of 13 chapters,each dealing with a separate aspect about how to fight a war,the book has been translated into many languages and has thousands of editions. For centuries,it has been used to train military leaders for its detailed study of military strategy and effective leadership.Letter to My DaughterThis book of essays and poems by Maya Angelou,a respectable American poet,is written for “the daughter she never had”—the millions of women,both young and old,who she considers to be her “family”. From the viewpoint of a caring,older relative,this book contains lessons selected from her own life experiences,including the birth of her only child,a son,as well as the development and loss of friendship.A Brief History of TimeIf you’re short on time,then why not read about,well,the creation of time?This book,first published in 1998 from brilliant scientist and mathematician Stephen Hawking,explores mindbending questions about the creation of the universe,including if and when it will end,and if so,how. Despite its heavy subject matter,Hawking addresses these questions in a way that’s easy to understand,even for those who know little about physics.【解题导语】本文主要介绍了四本纪实类文学作品。

Ⅰ阅读理解A(2018·长春高三质检)Chinese Emoji(表情符号) Circles Globe“Funny”,a made-in-China emoji,seems to have recently moved beyond China. Now,it is more than an emoji,but a cultural expansion.Reaching Global MarketsA series of “funny”emojibased bolsters(抱枕) have attracted the attention of Japanese customers. Even if one bolster is more than three times as expensive as in China,it doesn’t kill their desires to buy it. One Japanese customer Miki said,“They are just so cute that I bought three bolsters at one time. And every time I see them,my mood just brightens suddenly.”A Japanese netizen Kiro Kara said,“My dad will send it whenever he doesn’t agree with someone but he has to behave politely.”Addition to Domestic(国内的) Social MediaOne commonly seen online comment from Chinese netizens is,“Every time other people send me the emoji,I feel very uncomfortable and consider myself as a fool.”Released in 2013,the “funny”emoji is the updated version of its original one; “funny” has a smiley mouth,two eyebrows and a naughty look. All these characteristics present a sense of satire(讽刺).In Everyday Use AbroadEarlier this year,one emoji from the Chinese basketball celebrity Yao Ming,who played in U.S.A.,has been spread through the Middle East region. In a city in Egypt,Yao’s smiling emoji has appeared in local traffic signs to remind people the road ahead is oneway.As a new online language,emojis have been helping people express their views in a more vivid and precise way. Also,it can help foreigners learn about Chinese culture. But how to use “the fifth innovation(创新) in China”without hurting others and turn them into commercial advantages still needs answers.【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了中国的网络表情符号“有趣”对中国和世界文化的影响。

阅读限时练Ⅰ阅读理解A(2018·惠州调研)When I was a boy we used to live across the roadfrom a big hill with huge oak trees growing out of it. When winter arrived,thick and heavy snow would fall, and my two brothers would grab theirsleds heading over to the hill for a day of fun. I remember watching themwith envy because I was still too small to go sledding. Finally, one winterI was considered big enough and joined my brothers as they carried their sleds up the long hill and prepared to ride down it.The first few trips I rode with one of my brothers had the time of my life.It was so exhilarating when the wind whipped across my face as I flew down the hillside on the wooden sled.Near the end of the day I was too overjoyed when my oldest brother decided to let me try riding the sled all by myself. I climbed on it full of excitement and lay on my stomach. Then with one big push my brother sent me down the snowy hillside.I was doing pretty well too until I hit an old stump hidden by the snow and went off course,straight towards one of those big oak trees. My heart pounded in my chest and I could hear myself screaming. At the last possible second I rolled off and the sled crashed into the tree.I could hear my brothers running down the hill yelling,“You have to steer(操控)! You have to steer!”Sadly, that wasn’t the last time I failed to steer when some obstacle knocked me off course in my life.Many times problems,troubles, and my own failures have sent me crashing into the trees of anger,frustration, and despair. I am still learning that life isn’t always safe sledding. I am still learning that it is up to me to steer myself back to love, back to kindness,back to goodness,and back to God.Life is a trip, but no one ever said it was a smooth ride.Steer well then.Steer straight.Steer your soul towards the light and the love that are all meant for us.【解题导语】作者小时候有一次滑雪时差点撞到橡树上,但在最后一刻,作者翻滚到雪地里才得以化险为夷,同时他学到了一个人生道理:学会自我掌控。

Ⅰ阅读理解(2018·合肥高三质检)May Day, the first day of May, is celebrated asa spring festival in many countries. It marks the approach of summer.The English developed their May Day festival from the Roman festivalcalled Floralia. In the festival of Floralia, the Romans gathered flowers tohonor the goddess of spring, Flora. In the Middle Ages, May Day becamethe favorite holiday of many English villages. People gathered flowers todecorate their homes and churches, sang spring songs and chose a king anda queen of May. Villagers danced around a tall pole fixed upright in the ground, called a maypole, each holding the end of a ribbon attached to the top of the pole. They tied the ribbons around the pole until it was covered with bright colors. They collected dew(露水) on May Day morning and washed their faces with it because they believed that the dew on the day had the magic power to regain youth.Nowadays in Britain people no longer attach great importance to the day, but in some towns and villages people still celebrate it by choosing the May Queen and dancing around the maypole. May Queen is a girl selected as the most beautiful girl on May Day. She is usually crowned with flowers and often driven in procession through the street. In the United States, the day has never been celebrated with the same enthusiasm as in Britain. But in many American towns and cities, children celebrate the day with dancing and singing. They often gather flowers in handmade paper baskets and hang them on the doorknobs of the homes of their friends’and neighbors’on May Day morning. At May Day parties, children select May Queen, dance around the maypole, and sing May Day songs.【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文。

Ⅰ阅读理解A(2018·贵州普通高等学校适应性考试)When I was in college, I spenta semester studying abroad at the University of Strathclyde in Glasgow,Scotland. In my brief time there, I came to love Scotland for its localculture, food and scenery.You might think:“Scotland isn’t so different from the U、S.; they still speak English there!” But when I stepped off the plane, I was greeted by a gruff-voiced(声音粗哑的) lady at customs. “You’ll be coming from America, then?” She asked me, and I nodded. “But all of our guys are leaving Glasgow for the States!” Her thick Scottish English and sense of humor were obvious right away. I was not in the U、S. any more, where customs agents never joke around.As I settled in at the university, I could feel myself getting used to hearing—and even speaking—the Scottish English of my customs agent. In classroom discussions, people would say “em”when they couldn’t think of what to say instead of “um”,which was great fun. After the first few weeks, I stopped chuckling about this. Strathclyde students stayed up late into the night, running around campus and shouting, “Go! Lat’s go, lat’s go(curse word) Glasgow!” Pretty soon, I was no longer saying “thanks”at the supermarket—instead, I said “cheers”、My Scottish friends drank whiskey and ate haggis(羊杂碎布丁). I drank plenty of whiskey but I was ashamed to admit that I wasn’t brave enough to try haggis. Scottish bakeries usually sell bridies(肉馅饼). Add a cup of tea—though I usually Americanized it by choosing coffee instead—and a bridie makes for a delicious breakfast.Every time I took a train anywhere in Scotland, I’d gaze out at the rolling hills and wonder if grass was greener than anywhere else in the world. Then I’d reflect that there’s a reason this country was the birthplace of golf.【解题导语】本文介绍了“我”在苏格兰学习期间的体验:居民友好,食物独特,景色优美,苏格兰英语与美式英语有区别。

阅读限时练Ⅰ阅读理解A(2018·合肥高三质检)Many years ago, when we were a young couple with two small children, aged 2 and 4, we were practically impecunious.My inlaws lived from hand to mouth, so we didn’t expect any help from them. My parents lived a great distance away, and I was too ashamed to let them know about our situation.My husband was trying to earn a living with an old pick-up truck, carrying groceries for local shopkeepers, but it was constantly breaking down. It took almost all the money we had to have it fixed. The truck was also the only means of transportation for us.We lived in the countryside, and we always used the back door because the driveway led to it. One winter evening, I stepped outside to take a bag of trash to the barrel and almost tripped over something. It was nearly dark, and I had to bend down to see what it was. I could hardly believe my eyes. There sat a large basket loaded with food.It was heavy, so I called my husband to carry it into the house. Once inside, we discovered two loaves of bread, some butter, several cans of vegetables, a can of orange sauce, and a large turkey. There was so much that I couldn’t remember it all, but it was everything we needed to fix a wonderful dinner—everything except potatoes.A little while later I remembered that I hadn’t taken the trash to the barrel. By now it was dark, so I had to turn on the yard light—and that’s when I spotted a small bag of potatoes sitting on the porch.That dinner was the best I could remember.We weren’t able to thank our donators, though, because we never found out who had been so generous in helping a struggling young family. Whoever it was, we are forever grateful.【解题导语】本文是一篇记叙文。
