专题04 阅读理解(社会生活类)【母题来源一】【2019·天津卷,B 】I must have always known reading was very important because the first memories I have as a child deal with books. There was not one night that I don't remember mom reading me a storybook by my bedside. I was extremely inspired by the elegant way the words sounded.I always wanted to know what my mom was reading. Hearing mom say," I can't believe what's printed in the newspaper this morning," made me want to grab it out of her hands and read it myself. I wanted to be like my mom and know all of the things she knew. So I carried around a book, and each night, just to be like her, I would pretend to be reading.This is how everyone learned to read. We would start off with sentences, then paragraphs, and then stories. It seemed an unending journey, but even as a six-year-old girl I realized that knowing how to read could open many doors. When mom said," The C-A-N-D-Y is hidden on the top shelf," I knew where the candy was. My progress in reading raised my curiosity, and I wanted to know everything. I often found myself telling my mom to drive more slowly, so that I could read all of the road signs we passed.Most of my reading through primary, middle and high school was factual reading. I read for knowledge, and to make A's on my tests. Occasionally, I would read a novel that was assigned, but I didn't enjoy this type of reading. I liked facts, things that are concrete. I thought anything abstract left too much room for argument.Yet, now that I'm growing and the world I once knew as being so simple is becoming more complex, I find myself needing a way to escape. By opening a novel, I can leave behind my burdens and enter into a wonderful and mysterious world where I am now a new character. In these worlds I can become anyone. I don't have to write down what happened or what technique the author was using when he or she wrote this. I just read to relax.We're taught to read because it's necessary for much of human understanding. Reading is a vital part of my life. Reading satisfies my desire to keep learning. And I've found that the possibilities that lie within books are limitless.41. Why did the author want to grab the newspaper out of mom's hands?A. She wanted mom to read the news to her.B. She was anxious to know what had happened.C. She couldn't wait to tear the newspaper apart.D. She couldn't help but stop mom from reading.42. According to Paragraph 3,the author's reading of road signs indicates___________A. her unique way to locate herselfB. her eagerness to develop her reading abilityC. her effort to remind mom to obey traffic rulesD. her growing desire to know the world around her.43. What was the author's view on factual reading?A. It would help her update test-taking skills.B. It would allow much room for free thinking.C. It would provide true and objective information.D. It would help shape a realistic and serious attitude to life.44. The author takes novel reading as a way to___________.A. explore a fantasy landB. develop a passion for leaningC. learn about the adult communityD. get away from a confusing world45. What could be the best title for the passage?A. The Magic of ReadingB. The Pleasure of ReadingC. Growing Up with ReadingD. Reading Makes a Full Man【母题来源二】【2019·浙江卷,B 】Money with no strings attached. It’s not something you see every day. But at Union Station in Los Angeles last month, a board went up with dollar bills attached to it with pins and a sign that read, "Give What You Can, Take What You Need."People quickly caught on. And while many took dollars, many others pinned their own cash to the board. “People of all ages, races, and socio-economic(社会经济的)backgrounds gave and took, ”said Tyler Bridges of The Toolbox, which created the project. "We even had a bride in her wedding dress come up to the board and take a few dollars." Most of the bills on the board were singles, but a few people left fives, tens and even twenties. The video clip(片段)shows one man who had found a $ 20 bill pinning it to the board.“What I can say for the folks that gave the most, is that they were full of smiles,” Bridges said. “There’s a certainfeeling that giving can do for you and that was apparent in those that gave the most." Most people who took dollars took only a few, but Bridges said a very small number took as much as they could.While the clip might look like part of a new ad campaign, Bridges said the only goal was to show generosity and sympathy. He added that he hopes people in other cities might try similar projects and post their own videos on the Internet.“After all, everyone has bad days and good days," he said. “Some days you need a helping hand and some days you can be the one giving the helping hand.”24. What does the expression "money with no strings attached" in paragraph 1 mean?A. Money spent without hesitation.B. Money not legally made.C. Money offered without conditions.D. Money not tied together.25. What did Bridges want to show by mentioning the bride?A. Women tended to be more sociable.B. The activity attracted various people.C. Economic problems were getting worse.D. Young couples needed financial assistance.26. Why did Bridges carry out the project?A. To do a test on people’s morals.B. To raise money for his company.C. To earn himself a good reputation.D. To promote kindness and sympathy.【母题来源三】【2019·全国卷II,C】Marian Bechtel sits at West Palm Beach’s Bar Louie counter by herself, quietly reading her e-book as she waits for her salad. What is she reading? None of your business! Lunch is Bechtel’s “me” time. And like more Americans, she’s not alone.A new report found 46 percent of meals are eaten alone in America. More than half(53 percent)have breakfast alone and nearly half(46 percent)have lunch by themselves. Only at dinnertime are we eating together anymore,74 percent,according to statistics from the report.“I prefer to go out and be out. Alone,but together,you know?”Bechtel said,looking up from her book. Bechtel,who works in downtown West Palm Beach,has lunch with coworkers sometimes,but like many of us,too often works through lunch at her desk. A lunchtime escape allows her to keep a boss from tapping her on the shoulder. She returns to work feeling energized. “Today,I just wanted some time to myself,”she said.Just two seats over,Andrew Mazoleny,a local videographer,is finishing his lunch at the bar. He likes that he can sit and check his phone in peace or chat up the barkeeper with whom he's on a first-name basis if he wants to have a little interaction(交流). “I reflect on how my day's gone and think about the rest of the week,” he said. “It's a chance for self-reflection, You return to work recharged and with a plan.”That freedom to choose is one reason more people like to eat alone. There was a time when people may have felt awkward about asking for a table for one,but those days are over. Now,we have our smartphones to keep us company at the table. “It doesn't feel as alone as it may have before al the advances in technology,” said Laurie Demerit,whose company provided the statistics for the report.28. What are the statistics in paragraph 2 about?A. Food variety.B. Eating habits.C. Table manners.D. Restaurant service. 29. Why does Bechtel prefer to go out for lunch? A. To meet with her coworkers. B. To catch up with her work. C. To have some time on her own. D. To collect data for her report. 30. What do we know about Mazoleny? A. He makes videos for the bar. B.

The exhibition had record attendance, showing that there is huge interest in Chinese influences."China is impossible to overlook," says Hill. "Chinese models are the faces of beauty and fashion campaigns that sell dreams to women all over the world, which means Chinese women are not just consumers of fashion — they are central to its movement. "Of course, only are today's top Western designers being influenced by China-some of the best designers of contemporary fashion are themselves Chinese." Vera Wang, Alexander Wang, Jason Wu are taking on Galiano, Albaz, Marc Jacobs-and beating them hands down in design and sales," adds Hil.For Hill, it is impossible not to talk about China as the leading player when discussing fashion. "The most famous designers are Chinese, so are the models, and so are the consumers," she says. "China is no longer just another market; in many senses it has become the market. If you talk about fashion today, you are talking about China-its influences, its direction, its breathtaking clothes, and how young designers and models are finally acknowledging that in many ways."24. What can we learn about the exhibition in New York?A. It promoted the sales of artworks.B. It attracted a large number of visitors.C. It showed ancient Chinese clothes.D. It aimed to introduce Chinese models.25. What does Hill say about Chinese women?A. They are setting the fashion.B. They start many fashion campaigns.C. They admire super models.D. They do business all over the world.26. What do the underlined words "taking on" in paragraph 4 mean?A. learning fromB. looking down onC. working withD. competing against27. What can be a suitable title for the text?A. Young Models Selling Dreams to the WorldB. A Chinese Art Exhibition Held in New YorkC. Differences Between Eastern and Western AestheticsD. Chinese Culture Fueling International Fashion Trends【命题意图】阅读理解从能力的角度来讲,考查学生运用英语的能力,具体地说,就是通过阅读有关文章提取有用信息的能力。

A student guide.BAn unpleasant smell floated into my nose as the bowl of fried stinky tofu (臭豆腐)settled onto my grandmother’s dinner table. I immediately sat back. The smell ruined my appetite, and I pushed the dish away.“It’s supposed to stink. Just give it a try!” my grandmother said.Holding my breath, I unwillingly took a bite. To my surprise, the tofu beneath the fried skin was warm, soft, and mouthwatering. Since then, whenever I visited my grandmother’s house, I would rush to the kitchen for the stinky tofu with excitement. Thus, stinky tofu became more than a household tradition. It became my favorite dish.Along with the stinky tofu, I would meet my Uncle Chan on every visit. As an immature boy, I never understood my uncle’s condition of Down syndrome(唐氏综合症).He was an unfriendly and terrible creature in my eyes. He constantly walked around the house, talking to himself. Whenever he was within view, I would run away in fear.However, one day, my view of my uncle suddenly changed. I was just getting out of my bed when I heard soft steps approaching. It was my uncle. My muscles froze. He slowly sat next to me and touched my face gently, as a mother would stroke(抚摸)a baby. A wide smile emerged from his blank expression. How beautiful his smile was! I could not help but smile back. My fear disappeared gradually, and my muscles relaxed. For the first time, I could see softness and warmth in his eyes.My uncle very much resembles stinky tofu. Stinky tofu smells unpleasant on the outside, yet feels warm and soft on the inside. Like stinky tofu, my uncle’s Down syndrome made me keep my distance at first. Yet, I learned that deep inside, he is harmless and has a loving nature.Some people tend to look down upon disabled people and regard them as unfit for a regular life. As I was unable to see through the outer surface of the tofu, these people are unable to see through the surface of prejudice(偏见). As a result, they judge the disabled with one glance.The outside and inside of the stinky tofu exist as two extremely different worlds. Perhaps that is what makes it such a tasty dish. Not only is it delicious, stinky tofu offers a valuable lesson: never judge people at first glance, for true beauty comes from the inside.41. Why did stinky tofu become the author’s favorite dish?A. It was related to family tradition.B. It turned out to be quite delicious.C. Grandma encouraged him to try it.D. His appetite for food had increased.42. What did the author think of his uncle at first?A. He was a quiet person.B. He was an energetic person.C. He was an immature person.D. He was a strange creature.43. The author’s attitude towards Uncle Chan changed when ______.A. Chan’s footsteps woke up the authorB. Chan showed his friendliness to the authorC. Chan displayed his love towards the authorD. Chan’s blank expression made the author smile44. The comparison between stinky tofu and the author’s uncle serves to ______.A. highlight the nature of Uncle ChanB. analyze the family relationshipC. describe a childhood memoryD. introduce a traditional Chinese food45. What does the author mainly want to tell us in the passage?A. We shouldn’t judge by appearances.B. A person’s taste changes over time.C. Blood is thicker than water.D. You are what you eat.CEssentially, everyone has two ages: a chronological(按时间计算的)age, how old the calendar says you are, and a biological age, basically the age at which your body functions as it compares to average fitness or health levels.“Chronological age isn’t how old we really are. It’s merely a number,” said Professor David Sinclair at Harvard University. “It is biological age that determines our health and ultimately our lifespan. We all age biologically at different rates according to our genes, what we eat, how much we exercise, and what environment we live in. Biological age is the number of candles we really should be blowing out. In the future, with advances in our ability to control biological age, we may have even fewer candles on our birthday cake than the previous one.To calculate biological age, Professor Levine at Yale University identified nine biomarkers (生物标志)that seemed to be the most influential on lifespan by a simple blood test. The numbers of those markers, such as blood sugar and immune(免疫的)measures, can be put into the computer, and the algorithm(算式,算法)does the rest.Perhaps what’s most important here is that these measures can be changed. Doctors can take this information and help patients make changes to lifestyle, and hopefully take steps to improve their biological conditions. “I think the most exciting thing about this research is that these things aren’t set in stone,” Levine said. “People can be given the information earlier and take steps to improve their health before it’s too late.”Levine even entered her own numbers into the algorithm. She was surprised by the results. “ I always considered myself a very healthy person. I’m physically active; I eat what I consider a fairly healthy diet. But I did not find my results to be as good as I had hoped they would be. It was a wake-up call,” she said.Levine is working with a group to provide access to the algorithm online so that anyone can calculate their biological age, identify potential risks and take steps to improve their health in the long run. “No one wants to live an extremely long life with a lot of chronic(慢性的)diseases,” Levine said. “By delaying the development of mental and physical functioning problems, people can still be engaged in society in their senior years. That is the ideal we should be pursuing.”46. Biological age depends on ______.A. whether we can adapt ourselves to the environmentB. how well our body works compared with our peers’C. when we start to take outdoor exerciseD. what the calendar says about our age47. By saying “ we may have even fewer candles on our birthday cake than the previous one” in Para. 2, the author means ______.A. we don’t have to celebrate our birthday every yearB. we are chronologically older than last yearC. we might be less happy than the previous yearD. we may be biologically younger than the year before48. According to Professor Levine, what is the most exciting thing about her research?A. The measures are not fixed.B. Health services can be set up.C. The problems are not that serious.D. The research results are written in stone.49. What does the author want to tell us by Levine’s example in Para. 5?A. It is necessary to change our diet regularly.B. The test results may give us wrong information.C. Waking up early in the morning is good for our fitness.D. The algorithm can reveal our potential health problems.50. The ultimate goal of Levine’s research is to ______.A. free people from chronic diseasesB. work out a solution to genetic problemsC. keep people socially active even in old ageD. provide people with access to scientific theoryDWhen I graduated from high school, I wanted to major in comparative literature. But, once I found out my friends were going into “real”majors, like marketing, nursing, and engineering, I figured I needed to do the same to ensure a good career. So I changed my mind and choose Business Management as my major. I forced myself to believe that I would enjoy it and succeed in the future, but eventually I exhausted myself understanding the economy and trying new marketing techniques. Coming out of this experience, I realize it is ok to be different from others and to study things like classic art history and other majors offered in the College of Humanities(人文学科).The worries most people have about a Humanities degree and finding a career afterwards are that the majors are too abstract, and one will not obtain any applicable skills. Actually ideas discussed in Humanities classes which are occasionally different from what people commonly believe, offer a broad perspective(视角). How could one effectively be an unbiased(无偏见的)writer with only a knowledge of the popular opinion of society? How could one speak persuasively with closed minds? Only seeing the world through a single perspective leads to missed learning, missed friendships, and missed growth! With a broader perspective, we will be more free, more open-minded, and less limited in what we can become.STEM(science, technology, engineering and mathematics) graduates learn actual skills in their studies while humanities majors learn “soft skills” like communicating effectively through writing critically and speaking persuasively, synthesizing(综合)ideas through gathering and interpretinginformation, and developing cultural awareness. Do those soft skills sound useless and inapplicable to you? Think of it. How often do you communicate with others? Produce ideas? Encounter people from other cultures? Every day. Every SECOND of every day. So why not master these skills?If you choose a major in the College of Humanities, you will be needed. The job market is quietly creating thousands of openings a week for people who can bring a humanist’s grace to our rapidly evolving high-tech future. Your skills will be valuable to any workplace you hope to be in. Chase after your dream major with all your energy, no matter what other people think.51. Why did the author choose Business Management as his major at first?A. He was tired of learning comparative literature.B. He came to enjoy learning marketing techniques.C. He wanted to go to the same university as his friends.D. He believed Business Management was more practical.52. According to the author, what is a possible way to gain a broad perspective?A. Making more friends and learning from them.B. Exchanging ideas in a philosophy seminar.C. Opening your mind to future possibilities.D. Getting to know the popular opinion of society.53. In which of the following situations do soft skills play the most important role?A. Writing a software program.B. Performing a heart operation.C. Playing a musical instrument.D. Negotiating with a business partner.54. The author believes the job market for Humanities graduates is ______.A. recoveringB. depressingC. promisingD. challenging55. What could be the best title for this passage?A. Stick to Your Desired MajorB. Broaden Your PerspectiveC. How to Acquire Soft SkillsD. Humanities vs. STEM第二卷第三部分:写作第一节:My teacher Peter Bullock proved that science wasn’t boring and made physics great fun. In every lesson he would produce one of those worksheets in purple ink that smelled fresh from the machine. Every sheet contained a poem or a joke and we looked forward to them being handed out. I’ve kept them all to show to my children. There was one poem in particular that’s stayed in my memory, which went:In early days Man measured TimeBy sunrise and sunset sublime;As well as being able to turn physics into poetry, Peter had energy and passion and conveyed the sense that science was part of the world around you and not a dull boring academic discipline. I’m sure he was sticking pretty much to the standard topics – waves and electricity and so on – but he managed to convert everything into a joke or a story and did so in a clever and imaginative way.Peter Bullock was not only an exciting teacher, but also the man who founded the debate clubin my school. He encouraged me to take part and express myself in a forceful way that I’ve been doing ever since – and getting paid for it. That made me what I am today – a commercial lawyer.Peter Bullock taught me throughout my secondary schooling and I took physics, chemistry and maths at A-level. Everyone in his class enjoyed learning. He was inspiring. He turned me on to the idea that the things you are interested in might seem dull on the surface, but you can still excite others. For example, when I tell people I’m interested in law, they may think: “How boring.” I guess being a physics teacher is much the same. Peter showed me that what matters is how you convey your own passion so that you excite other people.56. Why did the students expect to get the worksheets in Peter’s class?(no more than 10 words)57. What is the meaning of the underlined word in Para. 2?(1 word)58. What does Para. 3 mainly tell us?(no more than 15 words)59. How did Peter make his students interested in the things that seem dull?(no more than 10 words)60. What do you think is the most important quality of a good teacher? Please explain. (no more than 20 words)第二节:假设你是晨光中学的李津。

A.It shared Garry’s intuition and experience.B.It’s designed to think like a human expert.C.Garry was not able enough to beat supercomputer.D.It was equipped with a powerful data processing system.23.What’s the author’s purpose of writing Paragraph 4?A.To present more details.B.To offer another example.C.To give further explanation.D.To share deeper understanding.24.Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage? A.①②③—④⑤B.①②—③④—⑤C.①—②③④—⑤D.①—②③—④⑤25.What can we infer from the last paragraph?A.Systems are expected to be more humanlike.B.More tasks are likely to be handled by systems.C.Human beings are certain to be replaced by systems.D.Tasks tomorrow are supposed to be more demanding.答案精析高考高频单词与短语识记排查跟踪训练Ⅰ.1.divided 2.discovery 3.slaves 4.witnessed5.abundantlyⅡ.6.C [考查动词短语辨析。

My wallet was gone. I couldonly have left it on the G9 bus; which was now speeding in the dark to some 16 station.The 17 moment was quickly followed by mental math. How much time and money would it cost to replace the 18 of that little wallet The credit cards; the driver’s license; the cash; all lost to the bus.Two hours later; back at my house; I heard a knock on the door. My husband 19 it while I was on the phone in the dining room. "Does Jennifer live here " I heard a lady say. In my husband’s hand was my wallet; with not a penny 20 . She left before I could 21 make it to the door to offer my thanks.After sharing the story online; I heard from someone; who 22 the lady as Erin Smith. Without 23 ; I called to thank her. She said she 24 my wallet on a bus seat. She 25 that going to a stranger’s house was a 26 move; but she decided to take the chance. "If I were in that 27 . I would want someone to try to find me;" she said.This one stranger responded beautifully to my small 28 ; but she actually wasn’t the only one.

There was not one night that I don’t remember mom reading me a storybook by my bedside. I was extremely inspired by the elegant way the words sounded.I always wanted to know what my mom was reading. Hearing mom say; "I can’t believe what’s printed in the newspaper this morning;" made me want to grab it out of her hands and read it myself. I wanted to be like my mom and know all of the things she knew. So I carried around a book; and each night; just to be like her; I would pretend to be reading.This is how everyone learned to read. We would start off with sentences; then paragraphs; and then stories. It seemed an unending journey; but even as a six-year-old girl I realized that knowing how to read could open many doors. When mom said;" The C-A-N-D-Y is hidden on the top shelf;" I knew where the candy was. My progress in reading raised my curiosity; and I wanted to know everything. I often found myself telling my mom to drive more slowly; so that I could read all of the road signs we passed.Most of my reading through primary; middle and high school was factual reading. I read for knowledge; and to make A’s on my tests. Occasionally; I would read a novel that was assigned; but I didn’t enjoy this type of reading. I liked facts; things that are concrete. I thought anything abstract left too much room for argument.Yet; now that I’m growing and the world I once knew as being so simple is becoming more complex; I find myself needing a way to escape. By opening a novel; I can leave behind my burdens and enter into a wonderful and mysterious world where I am now a new character. In these worlds I can become anyone. I don’t have to write down what happened or what technique the author was using when he or she wrote this. I just read to relax.We’re taught to read because it’s necessary for much of human understanding. Reading is a vital part of my life. Reading satisfies my desire to keep learning. And I’ve found that the possibilities that lie within books are limitless.41. Why did the author want to grab the newspaper out of mom’s handsA. She wanted mom to read the news to her.B. She was anxious to know what had happened.C. She couldn’t wait to tear the newspaper apart.D. She couldn’t help but stop mom from reading.42. According to Paragraph 3; the author’s reading of road signs indicates ___________.A. her unique way to locate herselfB. her eagerness to develop her reading abilityC. her effort to remind mom to obey traffic rulesD. her growing desire to know the world around her.43. What was the author’s view on factual readingA. It would help her update test-taking skills.B. It would allow much room for free thinking.C. It would provide true and objective information.D. It would help shape a realistic and serious attitude to life.44. The author takes novel reading as a way to___________.A. explore a fantasy landB. develop a passion for leaningC. learn about the adult communityD. get away from a confusing world45.

Reading Makes a Full ManCHow does an ecosystem生态系统work What makes the populations of different species the way they are Why are there so many flies and so few wolves To find an answer; scientists have built mathematical models of food webs; noting who eats whom and how much each one eats.With such models;scientists have found out some key principles operating in food webs. Most food webs;for instance;consist of many weak links rather than a few strong ones. When a predator掠食动物always eats huge numbers of a single prey猎物;the two species are strongly linked;when a predator lives on various species;they are weakly linked. Food webs may be dominated by many weak links because that arrangement is more stable over the long term. If a predator can eat several species;it can survive the extinction灭绝of one of them. And if a predator can move on to another species that is easier to find when a prey species becomes rare;the switch allows the original prey to recover. The weak links may thus keep species from driving one another to extinction.Mathematical models have also revealed that food webs may be unstable;where small changes of top predators can lead to big effects throughout entire ecosystems. In the 1960s;scientists proposed that predators at the top of a food web had a surprising amount of control over the size of populations of other species---including species they did not directly attack.And unplanned human activities have proved the idea of top-down control by top predators to be true. In the ocean;we fished for top predators such as cod on an industrial scale;while on land;we killed off large predators such as wolves. These actions have greatly affected the ecological balance.Scientists have built an early-warning system based on mathematical models. Ideally;the system would tell us when to adapt human activities that are pushing an ecosystem toward a breakdown or would even allow us to pull an ecosystem back from the borderline. Prevention is key;scientists says because once ecosystems pass their tipping point临界点;it is remarkably difficult for them to return.46. What have scientists discovered with the help of mathematical models of food websA. The living habits of species in food webs.B. The rules governing food webs of the ecosystems.C. The approaches to studying the species in the ecosystems.D. The differences between weak and strong links in food webs.47. A strong link is found between two species when a predator______.A. has a wide food choiceB. can easily find new preyC. sticks to one prey speciesD. can quickly move to another place48. What will happen if the populations of top predators in a food web greatly declineA. The prey species they directly attack will die out.B. The species they indirectly attack will turn into top predators.C. The living environment of other species will remain unchanged.D. The populations of other species will experience unexpected changes.49. What conclusion can be drawn from the examples in Paragraph 4A. Uncontrolled human activities greatly upset ecosystems.B. Rapid economic development threatens animal habitats.C. Species of commercial value dominate other species.D. Industrial activities help keep food webs stable.50. How does an early-warning system help us maintain the ecological balanceA. By getting illegal practices under control.B. By stopping us from killing large predators.C. By bringing the broken-down ecosystems back to normal.D. By signaling the urgent need for taking preventive action.DWould you BET on the future of this man He is 53 years old. Most of his adult life has been a losing struggle against debt and misfortune. A war injury has made his left hand stop functioning;and he has often been in prison. Driven by heaven-knows-what motives;he determines to write a book.The book turns out to be one that has appealed to the world for more than 350 years. That former prisoner was Cervantes; and the book was Don Quixote堂吉诃德. And the story poses an interesting question: why do some people discover new vitality and creativity to the end of their days;while others go to seed long before We've all known people who run out of steam before they reach life's halfway mark. I'm not talking about those who fail to get to the top. We can't all get there. I'm talking about people who have stopped learning on growing because they have adopted the fixed attitudes and opinions that all too often come with passing years.Most of us; in fact; progressively narrow the variety of our lives. We succeed in our field of specialization and then become trapped in it. Nothing surprises us. We lose our sense of wonder. But;if we are willing to lean;the opportunities are everywhere.The things we learn in maturity seldom involve information and skills. We learn to bear with the things we can't change. We learn to avoid self-pity. We learn that however much we try to please;some people are never going to love us-an idea that troubles at first but is eventually relaxing.With high motivation and enthusiasm;we can keep on learning. Then we will know how important it is to have meaning in our life. However; we can achieve meaning only if we have made a commitment to something larger than our own little egos自我; whether to loved ones; to fellow humans; to work; or to some moral concept.Many of us equate视…等同于“commitment” with such “caring” occupations as teaching and nursing. But doing any ordinary job as well as one can is in itself an admirable commitment. People who work toward such excellence—whether they are driving a truck; or running a store-make the world better just by being the kind of people they are. They've learned life's most valuable lesson.51. The passage starts with the story of Cervantes to show that_________.A. loss of freedom stimulates one's creativityB. age is not a barrier to achieving one's goalC. misery inspires a man to fight against his fateD. disability cannot stop a man's pursuit of success52. What does the underlined part in Paragraph 3 probably meanA. End one's struggle for liberty.B. Waste one's energy taking risks.C. Miss the opportunity to succeed.D. Lose the interest to continue learning.53. What could be inferred from Paragraph 4A. Those who dare to try often get themselves trapped.B. Those who tend to think back can hardly go ahead.C. Opportunity favors those with a curious mind.D. Opportunity awaits those with a cautious mind.54. What does the author intend to tell us in Paragraph 5A. A tough man can tolerate suffering.B. A wise man can live without self-pity.C. A man should try to satisfy people around him.D. A man should learn suitable ways to deal with life.55. What is the author's purpose in writing the passageA. To provide guidance on leading a meaningful adult life.B. To stress the need of shouldering responsibilities at work.C. To state the importance of generating motivation for learning.D. To suggest a way of pursuing excellence in our lifelong career.2019年普通高等学校招生全国统一考试天津卷英语笔试第Ⅱ卷注意事项:1. 用黑色墨水的钢笔或签字笔将答案写在答题卡上..2. 本卷共6小题;共35分..第三部分:写作第一节:阅读表达共5小题;每小题2分;满分10分阅读短文;按照题目要求用英语回答问题..Haze Mabry; who has worked as a school keeper for thirteen years;walks into the school building every day and empties garbage cans; wipes down bathrooms and mops wet messes in the hallways.Last Friday; after he arrived at the school; instead of finding garbage to clean up; he found almost 800 students lining the hallways with handmade cards; blowing noisemakers and singing a full-throated happy birthday to him.It was his 80th.

Mabry thanked them all.

He knows most of the kids at the school; but can't name each one. Some of them make him know them. Like Faith; who often forgets her backpack in the cafeteria;and Lucy;who just wants a hug.“He won't brag夸耀on himself; but it doesn't matter what he's doing or where he is; he will always stop what he's doing to take care of a child if that child is having a bad day. If a child approaches him;he will pause to give that child his undivided attention. He's the most loved one in this building;"said Lori Gilreath;a reading teacher.Mabry works circles around all the students; cleaning up messes others don't want to touch. He doesn't expect a lot. Mabry said he hadn't planned to do much for his milestone birthday; so he was happy the students had prepared the surprise celebration.Over the weekend; he worked through the piles of handmade cards at his house.

As a part of the celebration,flag bearers(旗手)were needed.I served in the army at that time and the Olympic organizers asked for volunteers to help carry some of the flags.Although it demanded that I give up part of my weekends and get up early,
