A
A monk lived with his brother, a one-eyed idiot(a very stupid person).One day ,when the monk was scheduled to have an interview with a famous theologian(a scientist who studies religions) who had come from far away to meet him, he needed to take care of some matters and would therefore be absent when the theologian arrived. He told his brother:“Receive this scholar and treat him well！Don’t say a word to him，and everything will be OK.”
The monk left the temple. Upon returning, he went to meet his guest.
“Did my brother receive you properly?”asked the monk.
“You brother is outstanding. He’s a great theologian!”exclaimed the theologian with great enthusiasm.
“What do you mean? My brother---a theologian?”stuttered(结巴地说)the surprised monk.
“We had a passionate conversation,”replied the scholar.“We communicated
professionally by means of gestures. I showed him one finger and he replied by showing me two. Logically, I answered with three fingers and then he astonished me by raising a closed fist, ending the debate. With one finger, I implied the unity of Buddha. With two fingers, he expanded my point of view by reminding me that Buddha was inseparable from his theory. Delighted by the reply, with three fingers I expressed: Buddha and his theory in the world. Then he suggested a wonderful response, showing me his fist: B uddha, his theory and the world, all together as one whole. ”
A little later, the monk went to look for his one-eyed brother.
“So how did it go earlier with the theologian?”he asked.
“Very simple,”said the brother.“He made fun of me ;he show me one finger emphasizing that I have but one eye. Not wanting to fall into the conflict, I showed that he was fortunate enough to have two eyes. Critically, he continued, ‘Be that as it
may ,between us, we have three eyes.’ That was the straw that broke the camel’s back. Showing him a closed fist, I threatened to lay him out right then and there if he didn’t stop his insulting challenges.”

B. The monk would be very happy and praise him.

Throughout history, artist, inventors, writers and scientists have solved problems in the ir dreams. Now, let’s have a look together at some of them.
1.Paul McCartney Found Yesterday in a dream
Paul McCartney is one of the most famous singers/songwriters of all time. According to the Guinness Book of Records, his Beatles song Yesterday(1965) has the most cover（翻唱） versions of any song ever written and, according to record label
BMI，was performed over seven million times in the 20th century.
The tune for Yesterday came to Paul McCartney in a dream.
“I woke up with a lovely tune in my head. I thought, ’That’s great, I wonder what that is?’ There was an upright piano next to me, to the right of my bed by the window. I got out of bed, sat at the piano, found G, found F sharp minor---- and that leads you through then to B to E minor, and finally back to E. It all leads forward logically. I liked the _melody a lot, but because I’d dreamed it, I couldn’t believe I’d written it. I thought, ‘No, I’ve never written anything like this before.’ But I had the tune, which was the most magic thing! ”
2. Mary Sh elley’s Frankentein Inspired by a Dream
In the summer of 1816, nineteen-year-old Mary Wollstonecraft Godwin and her lover, the poet Percy Shelley (whom she married later that year),visited the poet Lord Byron at his villa beside Lake Geneva in Switzerland. Stormy weather frequently forced them indoors, where they and Byron’s other guests sometimes read from a volume of ghost stories. One evening, Byron challenged his guests to each write one themselves.
Mary’s story, inspired by a dream, became Frankentein（科学怪人）.
“When I placed my head upon my pillow, I did not sleep, nor could I be said to think----My eyes shut ,I saw------with my acute mental vision----the pale student of unholy arts kneeling beside the thing he had put together. I saw the ugly figure of a man stretch out, and then , on the working of some powerful engine, show signs of life, and tremble with an uneasy motion, extremely frightful. The next morning I announced that I had thought of a story. I began that day with the words, ‘It was on a dull night of November’, making only a transcript(文字稿) of the cruel terror of my waking dream.”
5. We can learn from the whole passage that_________
A. Some great stories, poems and songs were created while their writers slept.
B. Paul McCartney likes writing songs in dreams.
C. Frankentein was written by Byron’s guests.
D. Byron was an ugly frightful Frankentein.

B. The most famous song and story
C. Great dreams that come true
D. How to dream
【答案】5. A 6. C 7. C
【解析】

试题分析：这是一篇记叙文。纵观历史，很多艺术家、发明家、作家和科学家都曾经在梦中解决问题。本文举例讲述了两个梦境成真的故事。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。由第一段“Throughout history, artist, inventors, writers and scientists have solved problems in their dreams. Now, let’s have a look together at some of them.”可知，很多艺术家、发明家、作家和科学家都曾经在梦中解决问题。因此可知，一些伟大的故事，诗歌和歌曲是在作家睡觉的时候创作的。故选A。
【6题详解】
词句猜测题。由画线词上文提到的“I woke up with a lovely tune in my head.”可知，“我”醒来脑海中还有那可爱的旋律，结合下文的叙述，我身边正好有钢琴，我下了床，坐在钢琴边，谱出了曲子合乎逻辑，因此可知，此处表示我非常喜欢这个曲调。Melody指的是曲调。故选C。
【7题详解】
标题判断题。根据开篇所说，结合下面的举例可推知，文章主要是在讲梦想照进现实，梦在现实中成真了。因此推断C项“好梦成真”为最佳标题。故选C。
【点睛】词句猜测题主要考查考生根据上下文推测词义和语义的指代等，突出考查根据上下文语境的分析和把握能力。考查的内容主要有猜测某个生词、熟词生义、短语或句子的意思以及猜测代词的指代等，要求在理解原文表面文字信息的基础上，做出一定的推理判断，从而得出文章的隐含意义和深层意义。例如小题2，解答此处需要对所在文字信息完整理解，推出答案，由画线词上文提到的“I woke up with a lovely tun e in my head.”可知，“我”醒来脑海中还有那可爱的旋律，结合下文的叙述，我身边正好有钢琴，我下了床，坐在钢琴边，谱出了曲子合乎逻辑，因此可知，此处表示我非常喜欢这个曲调。Melody指的是曲调。
故选C。
C
Education is not a bystanders sport. Numerous researchers have shown that when students participate in classroom discussion they hold more positive attitudes toward school, and that positive attitudes promote learning. It is no coincidence that girls are more passive in the classroom discussion and score lower than boys on SATs.
We found that at all grade levels in all communities and in all subject areas boys controlled classroom communication. They participated in more interactions than girls did, and their participation became greater as the year went on.
Our research contradicted the traditional assumption that girls control classroom communication in reading while boys in math. We found that whether the subject was language arts and English or math and science, boys got more than their fair share of teacher attention. That teachers talk more to male students is simply because boys are more aggressive in grabbing their attention by calling out answers to the teachers’ questions first. While girls sit patiently with their hands raised or keep silent. Psychologist Lisa Serbin and K.Daniel O’Leary, then at the state university of New York at stony brook studied classroom interaction at preschool level and found that teachers gave boys more attention, praised them more often and were at least twice as likely to have extended conversations with them.
Years of experience have shown that the best way to learn something is to do it yourself. It is also important to give students specific and direct feedback about the quality of their work and answers. Teachers behave differently depending on whether boys or girls are active to provide answers during discussions. During classroom discussion, teachers in our study reacted to boys answers with powerful, precise and effective responses, while they often gave girls mild and unclear reactions because of their silence. Too often, girls remain in the dark about the quality of their answers. Active students receiving precise feedback are more likely to achieve academically. And they are more likely to be boys.
This kind of communication game is played at work, as well as at school. As reported in numerous studies, it goes like this.
※Men speak more often and frequently interrupt women.
※ Listeners recall more from male speakers than from female speakers, even when both use a similar speaking style and cover the same content.
※Women participate less actively in conversat ion. They do more smiling and gazing, and they are more often the passive by standers in professional and social conversations among peers.
※Women often their own statements into unsure comments. This is accomplished by using qualifiers and by adding tag question. These uncertain patterns weaken impact and signal a lack of power and influence.
Only when girls are active and treated equally in the classroom will they be more likely to achieve equality in the workplace.
8. What does the authors mean when they say“Education is not a bystanders sport.”?
A. Both boys and girls should do more sports.
B. The girl students should be the audience to watch the boy students’ discussions.
C. The boy students should not be too active in the classroom discussions.
D. Both boy and girl students should take an active part in the classroom discussions.
9. Which of the following is Not true?
A. Girls’ scores are lower than boys on SATs.
B. Girls control classroom discussion in reading while boys in maths.
C. Boys control classroom discussion in both reading and maths.
D. Boys are more confident in calling out answers to catching the teachers’ attention.
10. The factors that contribute to the students’ effective learning are the following except__________
A. The students can take an active part in the classroom discussion.
B. The students do it themselves.
C. Teachers can give students specific and direct feedback the quality of their work and answers.
D. Students transform their own statements into uncertain comments.
【答案】8. D 9. B 10. D
【解析】
【分析】
试题分析：本文是一篇议论文。主要阐述教育不是旁观者的活动。要想学有所获，必须积极参与其中互动。男生比女生更加积极地参与课堂互动，因此获得老师更多的直接指导，这使得他们的能力得到培养，个性也得到张扬，所以在今后的职场中也能够站统领地位。女性要想获得同等的地位，应该从积极参与课堂互动开始。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。由下文可知，许多研究表明，当学生参与课堂讨论时，他们对上学持更积极的态度，积极的态度促进学习。女生在课堂讨论中更被动，在SAT考试中得分低于男生，这不是巧合。因此推断作者说“教育不是旁观者的活动”是为了表明男孩和女孩都应该积极参与课堂讨论。故选D。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。由第三段的Our research contradicted the traditional assumption that girls control classroom communication in reading while boys in math. We found that whether the subject was language arts and English or math and science, boys got more than their fair share of teacher attention.可知，我们的研究违背了传统的假设，即女孩在阅读中控制课堂交流，而男孩在数学中控制课堂交流。我们发现，无论是语言艺术和英语，还是数学和科学，男孩在教师的注意力中所占的份额都超过了他们的平均水平。因此女孩在阅读中控制课堂交流，而男孩在数学中控制课堂交流的说法是错误的。故选B。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。由第一段的“Numerous researc hers have shown that when students participate in classroom discussion they hold more positive attitudes toward school, and that positive attitudes promote learning.”可知，A项“学生们能够积极参与课堂讨论”是对的；由第四段的“Years of experience have shown that the best way to learn something is to do it yourself. It is also important to give students specific and direct feedback about the quality of their work and answers. ”可知，多年的经验表明，最好的学习方法是自己去做。给学生关于他们的工作和答案的质量的具体而直接的反馈也是很重要的。故B、C都是有利的因素；而D项“学生们将自己的陈述转化为不确定的评论”文章中没有提到。故选D。
【点睛】解答细节理解题的策略技巧：首先略读材料，了解文章大意，掌握文章主旨；其次，根据文章的体裁，写作的组织模式和相关信息词，寻找所需要的事实依据；最后，仔细阅读

His name was Alfred Nobel. He was a great scientist and inventor himself. Besides, he had a big business. His business may surprise you. He made and sold explosives. His companies even made and sold weapons. Isn’t this something that surprises you? The man who made money from weapons should set up the Peace Prize? Though Alfred Nobel had a lot of money from weapons, he hated war. He hoped that there would be no war in the world. He was one of the richest in Europe. When he died in 1896, he left behind him a lot of money and his famous will. According to his will, most of his money was placed in a fund. He wanted the interest from the fund to be used as prizes every year. We know them as the Nobel Prizes. The Nobel Prizes are international. Alfred Nobel wanted the winners to be chosen for their work, not the country they came from. Alfred Nobel had given his whole life to his studies and work and to the benefits of mankind. He made money all by his own efforts, but he left the world share his wealth. His inventions and wealth stay with the world for ever. 1.Nobel wanted to set up the Nobel Peace Prize because _____.

It is only when we cannot see perfectly that we come to see how important our eyes are. People who are nearsighted can only see things that are very close to their eyes. Many people who do a lot of close work, such as writing, reading and sewing, become nearsighted. Then they have to wear glasses in order to see distant things clearly.

2019年浙江省温州市高考英语模拟试卷（2月份） 一、阅读理解（本大题共10小题，共25.0分） A ‘Turtle time!，loudly called out by one of my newly-found friends，meant the beginning of either a morning or afternoon shift at Turtle Camp in Nusa Penida，Indonesia．Upon arrival at the project each day，we would look eagerly for our names on the whiteboard to see which task we would be undertaking．Would it be the highly desirable ‘turtle feeding'，the pretty fun ‘tank cleaning'，the exciting ‘medicine administering' or the less appealing ‘fish cutting'？Fine in theory but not when every fly in Indonesia decides to crowd onto these dead fish while you're cutting! Life at the turtle project was fun because twice a day we got to hang out with sea turtles．By ‘hang out'，I obviously meant ‘work'，as we were on shift，but it certainly didn't feel like work．Another fun thing was getting to know the other volunteers! With volunteers from all over the world，it was just common to hear Finnish being spoken，Australian slang mixed with French expressions and Swedes making plans to visit newly-found friends in the USA．Of course，not all the time at Turtle Camp was consumed by volunteering．Scheduled activities included a trip to Crystal Bay，a beautiful paradise for swimming and sunbathing，an awesome beach bonfire complete with a beautiful sunset as well as our local coworkers showing off their guitar playing and singing skills． Our time at Turtle Camp was capped off by setting free two of our turtles into the sea to begin their journey as independent turtles! Hopefully，the love and care provided at the turtle project would ensure that these turtles had a greater chance of survival in the big，wide and scary ocean． 1.Which task is less fun to the volunteers at Turtle Camp？______ A. Turtle feeding． B. Tank cleaning． C. Medicine Administering． D. Fish Cutting． 2.What does the underlined sentence imply？______ A. The volunteering was a challenge． B. The time at the camp was difficult． C. The work at the project was a delight． D. Communication was time-consuming． 3.When setting free the two turtles，the volunteers felt a sense of ______ ． A. achievement B. belonging C. loss D. independence B If you're looking at livable cities as inspiration for your holiday，you'll miss out on many great tourist destinations．According to Mercer's 2018 Quality of Living Survey，Moscow ranks 167 and Beijing only 119，yet both provide ample visitor pleasures．Meanwhile high-ranked cities such as Kobe （神户）or Seattle may be easy places to live in，but offer only passing interest to tourists．In truth，many of the world's most livable cities are a little dull． The world isn't rushing to visit Canberra or Montreal．In fact，none of the world's 10 most visited cities appear in Mercer's top 20．Clearly，considerations that create enjoyable holiday destinations differ from those that make cities fine places to live in． This should be no surprise，since livability lists aren't concerned with tourists or even local residents but rather expats（侨民）．Mercer，for example，is a British-based professional service firm whose lists supply multinationals with human resources information about where to locate their businesses．"The success of foreign business is influenced by issues such as ease of travel and communication，personal safety，and access to public services，says Slagin Parakatil，who oversees Mercer's research．In short，Mercer considers whether cities are attractive to business and investment，and have good schools，hospitals and housing while such factors seldom influence tourists． Still，Mercer's Quality of Living Survey has its uses for tourists，since it also looks at natural and cultural environments and recreation．It ranks public transport and infrastructure（基础设施）particularly highly，a consideration shared by the World Economic Forum in reports on tourism and travel competitiveness．This includes hotels，rental-cars and even ATM availability，all of which make a destination friendly to expats and visitors alike． 4.What do we know about livable cities？______ A. They hardly offer tourist passing interest． B. They may not be good tourist destinations． C. They can arouse the inspiration of visitors． D. They are usually highly ranked by tourists． 5.What is Mercer more concerned about when ranking livable cities？______ A. Tourist attractions． B. ATM availability． C. Business-friendliness． D. Local residents． 6.Why does the writer use Mercer's Quality of Living Survey？______ A. To make his view convincing． B. To compare those livable cities． C. To better understand the survey． D. To support the British-based firm． C Every day around the world，thousands of people with little to no scholarly training in art history walk into museums．They may or may not read notice boards that share relevant information of the artworks or artists．Imagine，before being permitted to direct their eyeballs to the art on the walls，museum visitors were required to read a 15- or 20-page introduction to each piece or each artist．How many people would go to museums if that were the case？ Yet this seems to be the expectation when it comes to reading classic literature．Classic novels typically come with 15- or 20-page introductions，which often include spoilers，assuming that readers do not come to classic books to discover，be absorbed in，and be surprised by the story world．Also，apparently，we mustn't read classics alone，without experts guiding our experiences． However，classic literature is in a unique position to show us that we're not alone in our pains and joys．By taking us out of our time，classic books free us to see beyond the set of beliefs we stick to and to connect human experiences that remain alive across time and place．What could be more grounding，more comforting，than seeing ourselves in the battles，longings，and pleasures that have played out across hundreds，thousands of years of human history？Our personal engagement is the first step of a longer journey of discovery that deepens our knowledge and understanding of ourselves and our world．We may，for example，feel for Hester Prynne from Nathaniel Hawthorne's The Scarlet Letter though we despair of the world she lived in． While we're letting go of things，let's stop worrying about understanding everything．We can't．It will be fun if we embrace curiosity，the pleasure of working out a mystery，and our common relationships as humans．We can feel，for example，the power of self-sacrifice in Charles Dickens'A Tale of Two Cities even when we lack full understanding of the cultural references and language． 7.Most museum goers ______ ． A. enjoy reading notice boards B. understand the artworks well C. lack professional art knowledge D. share common interest in artworks 8.What can the spoilers in Para.2 possibly be ？______ A. Story writers． B. Readers' expectations． C. Guiding experts． D. Plots given away in advance． 9.What prevents readers enjoying reading classics？______ A. Showing curiosity about the writers． B. Letting go of things．

2020年高考英语模拟卷及答案解析 （全国卷） 第二部分阅读理解(共两节，满分40分) 第一节 (共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分) 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 A． Kids' imaginations are in overdrive when it comes to composing Christmas lists - as they ask for a live walrus（海象）, the power of invisibility（隐身） and Taylor Swift. Christmas is less than two months away, and little ones are already planning their letters to Santa. But one survey has revealed the weirdest items to turn up on Christmas lists, and they include mythical monsters and mega-selling pop stars. Conducted by GAME, the study also reveals a significant break from festive tradition when it comes to writing wish lists. One in three, 29%, children now use technology such as iPads or mobile phones instead of the traditional pen and paper, while a further one in five (19%) will rely on parents to take note of all the things they point at during TV adverts and during trips to the shops. With more than three million lists likely to be drafted, parents are prepared for a flurry of requests including many that even Santa would struggle to achieve. As part of the study, parents were asked to reveal some of the weird and wonderful items that made it onto their child's Christmas lists. Fred Prego, marketing director at GAME, says: "Choosing what to get your kids at Christmas can be a bit of a minefield(雷区).” As the research shows, most kids will be making note of the things that they want this half term and a lot of lists are going to be written." 21. The underlined word “overdrive” in paragraph one means _______. A. running with a high speed B. slowing down sometimes C. driving forth and backwards D. getting stuck somewhere 【答案】：A 【解析】：根据背景可知，孩子们在选择圣诞礼物时，要求颇多，在脑风暴什么礼物时，想象力也十分充沛。overdrive v.& n.大脑“高速运转”。
