记叙文专项训练Passage 1She may no longer be a part of The Great British Bake Off, but you can’t keep Mary Berry away from what she enjoys doing most—taking the nation’s favourite recipes and giving them her own unique twist. In her brand new series, Classic Mary Berry, she promises that every single dish presented has been personally tested at home by her own family—and only those that received a thumbs up (赞许) from everyone made the cut.It would certainly take a brave person to suggest Mary had got it wrong. Having started cooking in her twenties, she now has more than 70 cookery books to her name. So what can viewers expect from the new show? “This is food you can coo k at home, each focusing on a different style of food, dishes with simple techniques and tips on what you can prepare ahead,” Mary says. “Classic me!”It wasn’t until she was 75 that she found fame, following the launch (推出) of Bake Off in 2010. Her chemistry with baker Paul Hollywood and presenters Sue Perkins and Mel Giedroyc quickly turned the show into the most popular series on TV. But in 2017, when it moved to Channel 4, Mary decided she would remain with the BBC.Mary, who has two children and four grandchildren, lives with Paul, her husband, for 51 years, in Buckinghamshire, where they grow much of what they eat in their own garden. But while Paul is on hand to help tend to the fruit and veg, Mary insists that the kitchen remains her kingdom. Although Mary turns 83 next month, there is no suggestion of her slowing down and even less of retiring. “We all do things that we enjoy,” she explains. “I find cooking is very relaxing. I cook something and everyone goes, ‘Isn’t that delicious? Can we have it again?’ I find that so rewarding. I hope I inspire people to enjoy family cooking. Life is all about sharing. If we are good at something, let us pass it on.

A few days later, my mother died of a serious heart attack. It happened so suddenly that I didn’t have a chance to do anything for her.Some time later, I received an envelope with a copy of a restaurant receipt from the same place mother and I had dined. An attached note said, “I paid this bill in advance. I wasn’t sure that I could be there; still, I paid for two plates—one for you and the other for your wife.

Madison quickly surveyed the situation. She was the only one who could fit through the small hole. Without hesitation, she got on her stomach next to the opening, placed her arms out in front of her, and told the adults, “Lower me in.”Leigh and others held her waist and legs. Inside, the tank was dark, and the air was terrible. In the process, she jammed her left wrist against a pole, injuring the muscles in her wrist and arm so severely that the hand was useless. Rather than tend to her injury, Madison skimmed the surface of the waste water, hoping to feel the drowning boy. “Every once in a while, I’d see his little toes out of the water,” she said. “Then I would try to grab them.” Minutes ticked by before she saw the faint outline of his foot again. Madison shot her good hand out and grasped the foot tightly. “Pull me up!”she shouted to the others above.As they were pulled to the surface, the boy’s free foot got stuck under the inside lip of the hole. “Lower me down!” she yelled. Then, ten minutes after Madison had entered the tank, she and the boy were lifted out.But the boy wasn’t out of trouble. He wasn’t breathing for the lack of oxygen.

For artist and father Dominick Cabalo, however, his son Nicholas’ lunches are an oil painting cloth for creativity. Cabalo makes carefully designed drawings on each of 12-year-old Nicholas’ pap er lunch bags, usually representing popular lively characters and colorful superheroes.Cabalo began drawing on the bags about three years ago to help Nicholas make new friends in elementary school. “I noticed he was a bit shy when it came to talking to others,” he said. “So by creating a piece of artwork to ‘break the ice’, kids would come up to him and start talking and hopefully a conversation, or better yet, a new friendship, would start.”Though Nicholas is in middle school now, he still asks his dad to draw on the lunch bags, and will make requests for characters or drawings that he’d like to see on the next bag. Cabalo has drawn about 400 lunch bags in the past three years. He explained that the bags had really helped his son become more confident at school. “He’s broken out of his shell because of this, and I like to think that I had a hand in helping him do this with these bags,” he wrote.Nicholas keeps most of the bags. “Some come back in better condition than others,” Cabalo said. “We may lose one due to the occasional wet sandwich or leaky drink, but that’s to be expected.” As for the bags that make it home undamaged, Cabalo posts their photos to social media. His favorites are the more time-consuming series of bags that can be joined up to create a larger image, such as the “Finding Nemo” triptych (三联画).1.What special feature makes Nicholas’ lunch bags distinguish?A.Delicious food cooked by a head chef.B.Beautiful oil paintings produced by artists.C.Colorful superheroes drawn by Nicholas.D.Lively characters drawn by the kid’s loving father.2.Why did Cabalo draw on the lunch bags in the very beginning?A.To help his son to make new friends.B.To make his son’s lunch bags attractive.C.To encourage his son to be more confident.D.To improve his son’s academic performance.3.Which of the following best describes Cabalo?A.

It was a touching act of kindness, but, as it turned out, not a random one. The cake h ad been paid for by a lady known simply as “McKenna’s mum”—as part of a gesture she had been making for a while, and for a heartbreaking reason.While Madison is set to celebrate turning 11, McKenna Jodell Fox would have turned ten on the same day. McKenna was only nine months old in 2008, when she was crushed by a falling TV set as her family prepared to move house.It’s a painful occasion for her mum, but one she has transformed into something positive. The cake she bought was accompanied by a card which read as follows:“Dear Birthday Girl Family,In honour of my daughter’s 10th birthday I have chosen your birthday cake to pay for. Eachyear I do this random act of kindness because I am unable to buy my daughter a cake of her own. Today is her big double digit birthday. Please enjoy your day.”By Kyle’s own admission, the whole family was left speechless. “We just want to say thank you to McKenna’s mom,” he wrote, “and wish McKenna a happy birthday. There’s still good in this world.”1.What do we know about the birthday cake?A.It tasted bittersweet.B.It was paid by McKenna’s mum.C.It made the family heart-broken.D.It was free of charge.2.Who died according to the passage?A.Kyle Jauregui.B.Madison.C.McKenna Jodell Fox.D.McKenna’s mum.3.Which of the following can best describe McKenna’s mum?A.Warm-hearted and cheerful.B.Strong-willed but depressed.C.Broken-hearted but generous.D.Kind-hearted and positive.4.Which of the following would be the best title for the text?A.A Painful AccidentB.A Speechless BirthdayC.One Birthday Cake for Two GirlsD. World Full of SurprisesPassage 7It was during a school trip to the Art Gallery of NSW that I realized I was not white.Aged eight, rough and noisy as any child travelling to an exciting place miles away from their own home, a supervising teacher seriously reminded me to stay in one place. To ensure this happened, and that I did not escape to a closed-off exhibition area the minute her eyes turned elsewhere, she forced me to hold the hand of a quiet, modest girl in my class, the typical teacher’s pet.Already feeling incredibly self-conscious, the moment took a turn for the worse when a fellow classmate eyed our interlocked hands. With a finger pointing accusingly towards us, he said, “God, I can see her hand turning black already.”That night I came home and cried in the shower. My own secret purchase of a Dove beauty bar failed to wash off the thick layer of dark grime (污点) onto my skin. For the first time I was forced to confront the vast valley between who I thought I was and who I actually was.Race proceeded to become something I struggled with all throughout adolescence. In stories like these, the climax (高潮) usually comes during university. To an extent, that was true.In your hands today is an edition that celebrates stories like mine, of lives and experiences informed by race.While race is the source of many of our struggles, it is also the location of our characteristics, dearest stories, and most loved people. As people coming from an ethno (人种的)-cultural minority, our race informs, but does not single-handedly define, who we are.1.Why did the teacher ensure the author stayed in one place?A.She punished the author because the author was not white.B.She was happy to see the author and the girl hand in hand.C.She was afraid the author would be laughed at by her classmates.D.She was afraid the author would run to a forbidden exhibition area.2.When did the author realize what the race meant to her?A.The moment the boy said her hands were black.B.The minute the teacher required her to stay still.C.The moment she bought a Dove beauty bar secretly.D.The night the bar couldn’t wash off the dirt from her skin.3.It is inferred from the text that .A.she struggled hardest during her college yearsB.she fought for those who were treated in an unfair wayC.she realized who she actually was during her adolescenceD.she struggled against the prejudice all her life4.Which of the following can be the title of the passage?A.Race Is EverywhereB. Race Taught Me a LotC. Minorities Are the BestD. Race Defines Who We Are记叙文专练参考答案Passage 1【文章大意】本文是一篇记叙文。

教师应该指引学生依据以下主线来理解列传类文章:人物→时间与事件→成功/成就/崇奉→评论。
这样使学生在正确地理解课文的同时,也能学到列传类文章的写作方法。
故事类故事类文章也是记述文的一种。
文章多以人物、事件为中心,以时间和空间为线索,按事件的发生、睁开、结局睁开故事。
此类篇章情节性较强,教师可指导学生依据事件叠加、情节逐渐睁开的特色和解决问题,以人物一系列动作为线索的明显特色进行略读,即能够较快地获取篇章的主要信息。

At night, the 26-year-old young man, taking off his helmet (头盔) and blue jacket, dives into small theaters where he is going to use stand-up comic sets inspired by his personal stories as a deliveryman to make people laugh.In 2019, he found that running errands can bring him a good income.

The students have only been in the US for a few weeks or months. Many students were from different countries last year. Woods Chan became concerned when she started hearing the Spanish-speaking students laugh when their classmates spoke Mam or Arabic.Woods Chan came up with an idea. She asked her students to take turns teaching a little bit of their home language each day. Students taught their partners how to count from 1 to 10, how to introduce themselves and how to say basic phrases or words like “Cool”. Then, they recorded themselves saying those phrases in short videos and wrote vocabulary words on the whiteboard.Woods Chan saw the difference in her students. She said they grew more confident after seeing their own language on the whiteboard and hearing it in the videos. They started making friends with each other across cultural lines. Other students who were not in that class would come in and see something written in Mam on the whiteboard and say, “Hey, that’s Mam! I speak Mam!”The project also helped students understand their partners better. Orlando, a 17-year-old student from El Salvador, said he never knew Arabic or Mam, even existed before he came to the US and heard his classmates talk. Now, he thinks it would be good for all students in his school to learn a little of their partners’ home languages. “When I first got here,” he said in Spanish, “I thought, ‘No one talks like me. I’m the only one, and I felt lonely.’ Now, I don’t feel so bad anymore.”Knowledge of other languages can help Woods Chan’s students beyond the classroom, too. Languages like Mam are becoming more and more common in the US. Some Oakland graduates have gone on to become Mam-English interpreters (口译员) to help fill a lack of interpreters in all kinds of settings.9.What made Woods Chan think of the idea?A.Some of her students making fun of other languages.B.Her students hardly using their home languages.C.Her students being interested in learning a new language.D.Her students having difficulty communicating with each other.10.What was the students’ feeling of seeing their home languages written on the whiteboard?A.Angry but accepting.B.Excited and proud.C.Worried but supportive.D.Relaxed and creative.11.What effect did Woods Chan’s project have on Orlando?A.It made him feel less lonely at school.B.It encouraged him to get a job as an interpreter.C.It helped him understand his home language better.D.It enabled him to work better in foreign language classes.12.What can be the best title for the text?A.School Is Not the Only Place to Learn B.All Her Students Are Language TeachersC.She Replies to Her Students’ Needs Quickly D.Language Is Not a Block to Communication(2023秋·北京·高一统考期中)When my daughter Sara was in the fifth grade, she came to me with a problem. “Marcy hates me!” she cried. “Because Kathy is my friend, too. She wants me to be her friend and nobody else’s. You talk to Marcy. You tell her that I want to be her friend, but I can have other friends, too!”Oh! I looked at her for a few moments, wondering how I got into this mess (困境), when suddenly an idea came to me.Picking up two baskets from the living room, I explained, “When everyone is born, he or she has a little basket. This little one here is yours. The big one is mine. As you grow, so does the basket. You can see your little basket is inside mine because when you were born, there were too many things you couldn’t do for yourself. I did everything you couldn’t do on your own.”She nodded.“Well, as you grew older and began to do some things on your own, I began placing a few more things in your basket. When you learned to tie your shoes, that went in your basket.”She said softly, “I can tie my own shoes.”“Right. As you grow older, there will be more and more things you must do on your own.” As I spoke, I gradually took her basket out of mine and handed it to her. “You will finally carry your own basket with thingsonly you can do.”She looked up at me and said, “I understand. There are some things that I have to do for myself because they are in my basket.”13.What was Sara’s problem?A.She didn’t have a basket.B.She didn’t want her own basket.C.She couldn’t deal with her friendship.D.Her mother was too hard on her.14.What did the author think of Sara’s problem at first?A.Interesting.B.Exciting.C.Moving.D.Challenging.15.We can infer that Sara ________.A.would talk to Marcy herselfB.wouldn’t make friends with KathyC.was too young to deal with anythingD.managed to persuade her mother to help her16.The baskets mentioned in the passage refer to ________.A.gifts given by God when everyone is bornB.something that people use to keep vegetablesC.growing abilities as you grow upD.friendship that needs repairing(2023·高一课时练习)Age has never been a problem for Thessalonika Arzu-Embry. After all, she’s already got her master’s degree.The North Chicago-area girl started homeschooling at the age of 4. She began having an influence on others soon after. When she was 6 years old, she was an inspirational (鼓舞人心的) speaker at an organization called Tabitha House Community Service, a shelter for people who were forced to leave their homes due to the situations such as earthquakes, flood and other natural disasters.At the age of 11, she graduated from high school and then earned her bachelor’s degree in psychology in 2013. She completed those classes online as she was traveling for leadership meetings.She doesn’t stop there, though. The girl plans to focus on aviation psychology (航空心理学) for her further study, a decision inspired by her father who is a pilot. She grew up around airplanes and took flights all the time.Her goal is to use it to determine whether pilots are dealing with problems that could have deadly results once the plane takes off — a topic that has been in the news lately. For her, it’s a mix of two of her interests.In her free time, Thessalonika enjoys playing tennis, swimming and being active in her youth group. She also has three self-published books, which are on her site. Jump the Education Barrier is written to help students finish college, and In the Future aims to help business owners deal with trends.

It had been my dream to attend the famous carnival for many years, so I was excited. However, the moment I arrived, I was a little bit nervous because there were so many people on the streets. They say that five or six million people come to Rio during carnival time and about two million of them are on the streets on any givenday. Luckily, I had a local guide, my sisterˈs friend Ronnie. He said he would take care of me and show me all the highlights. He did not let me down.The carnival is most definitely all about the samba. Itˈs a style of music and dance which has its roots in Africa. Lots of Africans were used as slave labor by the Portuguese when Brazil was being colonized (殖民), so this mixed culture of African, Latin and European styles is really strong here. Samba music is usually fast and exciting with a lot of drums and harmonic vocals (和声). Itˈs the kind of music that you canˈt help dancing to, and I was learning that as I followed Ronnie through the crowd, my hips and shoulders were swinging (摇摆) almost involuntarily.Ronnie had got us tickets for the samba parade, the symbol of Brazilian culture, inside the Sambadrome where the top samba schools compete for the championship title, but we still had a long way to go through the street parties. He said most people enjoy the carnival by making their own parties in the street. About the samba parade, twelve main teams compete for the championship, and if they win, their performance will be talked about for years to come. So, you must be wondering how it was. Well, Iˈm afraid I canˈt tell you. Ronnie and I never made into the Sambadrome. We spent the day moving from one street party to another. There were more snacks, more drinks and lots of dancing. Do I regret missing the main parade? Not at all. I experienced the carnival like the locals, and it was truly amazing.21.What made the author nervous in the beginning?A.Busy schedule.B.The big crowd.C.No local guide.D.Culture shock.22.What can we learn about samba from this passage?A.It has its origin in America.B.It is not the taste of the author.C.It has a long and mixed culture.D.Its music is usually slow and soft.23.The author didnˈt regret missing the parade because ________.A.she met some amazing local peopleB.she didnˈt have the tickets for the paradeC.she celebrated the festival in a local wayD.she enjoyed herself by making her own parties24.What is the purpose of the passage?A.To recommend a helpful guide.B.To tell a painful history of Rio de Janeiro.C.To encourage people to learn samba.D.To share an unforgettable experience.(2023春·山东青岛·高一统考期中)Recently I was watching a talk show hosted by a comedian called Trevor Noah from South Africa. The part which struck me most was his advice about travelling. He said, “The one thing you will never waste your money on is travelling. Travel broadens the mind. It is the antidote to ignorance (无知).” In my opinion this statement should be everyone’s life motto (座右铭).This year I’ve had the opportunity to do a lot of travelling around Europe and it has shown me first hand how much you can learn and develop by visiting different places. It is so wonderful to be able to go to a different country, listen to the different languages, try local food and experience the different culture.I’ve personally noticed how different I am since I started exploring more. It involves being able to find good train or plane tickets, getting yourself to the airport, not to mention trying to find your way around a completely new city. While it can be scary at first, after a few trips you realize that Google Maps is your best friend and it really isn’t that difficult to figure out public transport. Travelling also helps you develop your organization skills! It is basic to figure out how to get to different tourist attractions and plan your time wisely. However, it is also nice to learn to relax. On top of that, hotels are a great way to meet new people from all around the world. It is fantastic when young people from different parts of the world come together; I’ve met so many strange and wonderful people this way.As far as I can see, travel as much as possible, because the experiences you will gain from travelling can’t be taught at school and they will change your life.25.What do the underlined words “antidote to” mean in the first paragraph?A.Replacement of.B.Development of.C.Treatment for.D.Agreement to.26.How will the author describe his trip to Europe?A.Busy.B.Hard.C.Rich.D.Costly.27.What has happened to the author since he began traveling?A.He has become more confident and independent.B.He has developed a skill to select tourist attractions.C.He has found it hard to figure out public transport.D.He has made many friends from all over the world.28.Which section is the text most likely to appear in a newspaper?A.News.B.Education.C.Opinions.D.Health.(2023春·江苏泰州·高一泰州中学校考阶段练习)Johan Clarey tends not to be in much of a rush when it comes to anything other than speeding down a hill on skis. Add Olympic success to the list of things he’s waited for.The Frenchman, who turned 41 in January, became the oldest man to win an Olympic medal in Alpine skiing in history when he claimed a silver behind Beat Feuz of Switzerland in the downhill at the Beijing Olympic Winter Games, breaking Bode Miller’s record by five years.“Everything came late in my life. Since I was a young boy, that’s what my mother said,” Clarey said. “I take extra time to do everything — walking, speaking and everything. Apparently, my career started quite the same.”This was Clarey’s fourth Olympics and realistically his last chance of being on the podium (领奖台) at the Olympics. “I took a lot of risks. I knew I had only one chance left in my career to get a medal in the Olympics,” he said. “And when I was going down, I knew I made a good run, but you never know in downhill skiing. Sometimes you’re fast, but sometimes you’re not. You never know why. But today was fast.” This was only Clarey’s second medal at a major championship; he also took home a silver in the super-G at the 2019 world championships.And this big moment almost didn’t happen: Clarey had considered retirement. He said he’s been having doubts about whether to continue competing for six years. The Frenchman said, “At 35, I said to myself, You have to do one year by one year.” That, he says now, was “a good choice”, because he has the medal to prove it. Clarey is still not quite ready to quit. He will turn his attention back to the World Cup circuit.29.What do we know about Clarey as a boy?A.He was gifted in snow sports.B.He preferred skiing to other sports.C.He got an early start on his future career.D.He seemed to mature later than his peers.30.What was Clarey’s achievement at the Beijing Olympic Winter Games?A.He won the championship in Alpine skiing.B.He competed in Alpine skiing for the first time.C.He won his first Olympic medal in Alpine skiing.D.He was the first Frenchmen to medal in Alpine skiing.31.What does Clarey now think of his decision at age 35?A.It was rewarding.B.It was too costly.C.It was a joke.D.It was a coincidence.32.What can we learn from Clarey’s story?A.Actions speak louder than words.B.Ups and downs make one strong.C.The early bird catches the worm.D.Determination is the key to success.(2023秋·贵州黔西·高一统考期末)A year ago, I paid no attention to English idioms (习语), though my teacher stressed the importance again and again. But soon, the importance of English idioms was shown in an amusing experience.One day, I happened to meet an Englishman on the road, and soon we began to talk. As I was talking about how I was studying English, the foreigner seemed to be astonished.Gently shaking his head, shrugging his shoulders, he said, “You don’t say!” I was puzzled. I thought, perhaps this is not an appropriate topic. “Well, I’d better change the topic.” So I said to him. “Well, shall we talk about the Great Wall? By the way, have you ever been there?” “Certainly, everyone back home will laugh at me if I leave China without seeing it. It was magnificent.” He was deep in thought when I began to talk like a tourist guide. “The Great Wall is one of the wonders in the world. We are very proud of it.” Soon I was interrupted again by his words: “You don’t say!”. I couldn’t help asking, “Why do you ask me not to talk about it?”“Well, I didn’t request you to do so,” he answered, greatly surprised. I said, “Didn’t you say ‘you don’t say’?” Hearing this, the Englishman laughed to tears. He began to explain, “‘You don’t say!’ actually means ‘Really!’. It is an expression of surprise. Perhaps you don’t pay attention to English idioms.”Only then did I realize I had made a fool of mysell. Since then I have been more careful with idiomatic expressions. Remember: What the English teachers said is always right to us students.33.A year ago, I paid no attention to English idioms because________.A.English idioms were not importantB.my teacher didn’t emphasize the importance of themC.I had no interest in themD.I didn’t realize the importance of English idioms34.What can we infer from the second paragraph?A.The Englishman left China without seeing the Great Wall.B.The Englishman thought the Great Wall is worth visiting.C.The Englishman wanted to see the Great Wall after I talked about it.D.The Englishman wanted me to act as his guide.35.At first, on hearing “You don’t say!” I thought the foreigner meant ________.A.he was only interested in the Great WallB.he was not interested in the topicC.I had talked too muchD.I had to stop talking36.After the Englishman explained the idiom, ________.A.I felt very foolishB.I thought the Englishman had made me a foolC.the Englishman became a real foolD.I became more carefully in everything(2023·全国·高一专题练习)In the United States, when one becomes rich, he wants people to know it. And even if he does not become very rich, he wants people to think that he is. That is what “keeping up with the Joneses” is about. It is the story of someone who tried to look as rich as his neighbors.The expression was first used in 1913 by a young American called Arthur Momand. He told this story about himself. He began earning $125 a week at the age of 23. That was a lot of money in those days. He got married and moved with his wife to a very wealthy neighbourhood outside New York City. When he saw that rich people rode horses, Momand went horseback riding every day. When he saw that rich people had servants, Momand and his wife also hired a servant and gave big parties for their new neighbours.It was like a race, but one could never finish his race because one was always trying to keep up. The race ended for Momand and his wife when they could no longer pay for their new way of life. They moved back to an apartment in New York City.Momand looked around him and noticed that many people do things just to keep up with rich lifestyle of their neighbours. He saw the funny side of it and started to write a series of short stories. He called it “Keeping up with the Joneses” because “Jones” is a very common name in the United States. “Keeping up with the Joneses” came to mean keeping up with rich lifestyle of the people around you. Momand’s series appeared in different newspapers across the country for over 28 years.People never seem to get tired of keeping up with the Joneses. And there are “Joneses” in every city of the world. But one must get tired of trying to keep up with the Joneses because no matter what one does, Mr Jones always seems to be ahead.37.Some people want to keep up with the Joneses because they .A.want to be as rich as their neighborsB.want others to know or to think that they are richC.don’t want others to know they are richD.want to be happy38.It can be inferred from the story that rich people like to .A.live outside New York City B.live in New York CityC.live in apartments D.have many neighbors39.Arthur Momand used the name “Jones” in his series of short stories because “Jones” is .A.an important name B.a popular name in the United StatesC.his neighbor’s name D.not a good name40.According to the writer, it is to keep up with the Joneses.A.correct B.interesting C.impossible D.good参考答案:1.D 2.C 3.B 4.A【导语】这是一篇记叙文。

The year was 1859. America and England had already fought two wars. Now, they were at peace. But one day a pig got hungry. And it nearly caused another war between the two countries. The pig was owned by a British man who lived on a small island. The island was just off the western part of North America. Both England and the US said the island was theirs. Across the island from the British man lived some American farmers. Everyone on the island got along peacefully. But the peace ended the day the British man's pig decided to eat some of an American farmer's potatoes.One of the American farmers shot and killed the pig. Then the pig's owner wanted $100 from the man who shot the animal. That was a lot of money, so the farmer refused to pay it. The British and Americans began to argue, and the situation got worse. The farmers asked the governor over the island at that time for help. He sent a group of soldiers to protect the farmers. The British answered by sending 2, 000 soldiers. The British were on one side of the island, and the Americans were on the other. The problem that began with the pig was about to become a shooting war.When news of the problem reached Washington and London, both leaders were surprised. Neither country wanted another war.

I closed the door. He was full of energy, throwing things around and making a huge mess. But I could see that he was doing all these to annoy me. He needed connection, and this was the only way he knew how to ask for it. So I sat back down and kept quiet. Then he slowed down and began making a rocket. I talked to him about it. We continued like this for a few minutes before I slipped into the conversation: “So what happened today?”It was purely a question, no blame or anger in my tone. I believe that if I had criticized him, the gate that was slowly opening would have shut firmly closed. He told me that the teacher didn’t let him do what he knew well due to safety but asked him to do what he disliked. He also admitted that he had enjoyed making her run around and saw it as a game. I explained that his teacher had not seen it as a game and was very upset. This again was stated simply as a fact. I suggested that next time he have a session, he talked about what he hoped to do at the start, which might be easier for everyone. He agreed and was quiet for a moment.

高一英语阅读理解专项练习:记叙文类记叙文类(I)★★Elizabeth Blackwell was born in England in 1821, and moved to New York City when she was ten years old. One day she decided that she wanted to become a doctor. That was nearly impossible for a woman in the middle of the nineteenth century. After writing many letters asking for admission(录取) to medical schools, she was finally accepted by a doctor in Philadelphia. She was so determined that she taught school and gave music lessons to get money for the cost of schooling.In 1849, after graduation from medical school. she decided to further her education in Paris. She wanted to be a surgeon(外科医师) , but a serious eye problem forced her to give up the idea.Upon returning to the United States, she found it difficult to start her own practice because she was a woman. By 1857 Elizabeth and her sister, also a doctor, along with another woman doctor, managed to open a new hospital, the first for women and children Besides being the first woman physician and founding her own hospital , she also set up the first medical school for women.1. Why couldn’t Elizabeth Blackwell realize her dream of becoming a surgeon?A. She couldn’t get admitted to medical schoolB. She decided to further her education in ParisC. A serious eye problem stopped herD. It was difficult for her to start a practice in the United States2. What main obstacle(障碍) almost destroyed Elizabeth’s chances for becoming for a doctor?A.

Eilzabeth Blackwell spent most of her lift in _______.A. EnglandB. ParisC. the United StatesD. New York City1-5 CAABC(II)★★★Europe is now the biggest market for organic food in the world, having grown by 25percent a year over the past 10 years. Denmark’s agriculture minister is herself an organic farmer. The UK market for organic food grew by 55 percent in 2000, while the food market as a whole grew by only one percent. Yet only seven percent of British shoppers account for nearly 60 percent of organic sales. However popular the idea of organic farming may be, it is still an interest for only a few people.So what makes the idea of organic farming popular? Organic farming means farming with natural materials, rather than with man-made fertilizers or pesticides. Organic farmers rely on many methods — such as crop rotation (农作物的轮作) and the use of resistant(有抵抗力的)varieties, because they are necessary for organic farmers to compensate forthe shortage of man-made chemicals.Organic farming is often supposed to be safer than traditional farming for the environment. Yet after a long research on organic farming worldwide for a number of years, science continues to be against this opinion. The House of Commons committee on agriculture publicized that, even with complete research work, it would fail to find any scientific evidence to prove “that any of claims (宣称)made for organic farming is always true”.However, the talk about the benefits of organic farming is going on. This is partly because many people depend on their individual farm, the soil, the weather, and so on.1.

In order to find Asia they had to find a way past South America. The man who finally found the way from the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific was Ferdinand Magellan (麦哲伦). Magellan sailed from Seville in August, 1519 with five ships and about 280 men. Fourteen months later, after spending the cold winter on the coast of Patagonia, he discovered the channel which is now called Magellan Strait (海峡). In November, 1520, after many months of dangers from rocks and storms, the three remaining ships entered the ocean on the other side of South America. They then continued, hoping to reach Asia. But they did not see any land until they reached the islands off the coast of Asia. Before they arrived at these islands, later known as the Philippines (菲律宾), men were dying of starvation (饥饿). While they were staying in the Philippines, Magellan was killed in battle. The remaining officers then had to get back to Spain. They decided to sail round Africa. After many difficulties, one ship with eighteen men sailed into Seville three years after leaving. They were all that remained of Magellan’s expedition. However, their achievement was great. They were the first men to sail round t he world.1.

2022高考英语专题练之记叙文阅读(A)Jonathan Bauer is afraid of heights, but that didn’t stop him from leaping off a bridge some 25 to 40 feet to the water below to save a little girl’s life.On May 2, Bauer and his teenage daughter Ava were driving on the bridge over Maryland’s Assawoman Bay when they got caught in a serious five-car pileup. The accident sent eight people to the hospital and left a pickup truck hanging dangerously over the guardrail.After making sure Ava was okay, Bauer got out of his car to see if anyone needed help. As he headed toward the shaking truck, its passenger informed him of a heart-wrenching sight — a very young child was floating in the bay. “I looked over and saw the car seat, and then about six feet away from the car seat, I saw the little girl floating perfectly on her back, arms moving, legs kicking.” Bauer said, as reported by WJLA.Scanning the water for nearby boats that might be able to help, Bauer found none close by. When he turned his attention back to the little girl, he saw she was in trouble. “She had turned over onto her stomach and her face was in the water,” he said.Bauer yelled to his daughter to pull over the first firefighter or paramedic (护理人员) she saw. Then he simply took off his shoes and jumped in, feet first.Surfacing without injury, he swam to the child, who appeared to be only half-conscious. Lifting the child over his shoulder, he patted her back to force the water our of her system. Moments later, boaters Joe and Alayna Oertel who had witnessed the events arrived. After pulling them to safety, the Oertels rushed the pair to the place where they were met by waiting paramedics.Meanwhile, Bauer slid away without taking credit for his brave actions. Even after reports of the incident went public, he initially tried to keep his involvement quiet, preferring to remain an unknown good Samaritan.1.It can be learned from the passage that Bauer .A.got into a panic at the sight of the drowning girlB.refused to be reported for his bravery by WJLAC.saved the girl by giving her instant first aid treatmentD.hung back before jumping off the bridge for fear of heights2.According to the passage, a good Samaritan is a person whoA.is motivated to assist others for fameB.performs good deeds out of sympathyC.saves others’ lives at the cost of his ownD.chooses to stay away from public attention3.What is the message mainly conveyed in the passage?A.Random acts of kindness make a difference to moral judgment.B.Basic first-aid techniques enable us to escape from danger.C.Heroic actions ask for no honor or approval in return.D.Success is based on the team not the individual.(B)Over the years, I’ve been guilty of hastily shutting the front door to many strangers when they came knocking with the intention of selling things. But earlier this year, around Easter time, a dear friend of mine had an experience that changed my mind and perception towards these “intruders” .Linda, who recently moved to a new neighbourhood, had been housebound all week suffering from a severe case of flu when, early one morning, there was the terrible knock on her front door. Peering out the window, she saw two young ladies demurely( 端庄地) holding leaflets and a TV set model. She knew of a large TV set establishment nearby and assumed a message was about to be gently delivered. “This is the last thing I need today,” she muttered to herself and hesitantly opened the door.Coughing, she poked her head out and impatiently informed them she wasn’t the slightest bit interested in any TV whatsoever. Furthermore, she added, she was feeling quite unwelll and abruptly shut the door. The ladies politely turned and left in silence.A few hours later, another knock. Linda glanced out the window and to her surprise, there were the same two ladies, back again. Really annoyed this time, she opened the door ready to give them a piece of her mind. Before she could speak, with concerned looks on their faces, these women handed Linda what looked to be a dish, saying, “We’re so sorry we disturbed you earlier. We thought you may like this homemade chicken soup. Hopefully it might make you feel a little better.”Linda was taken aback by this lovely gesture. Being new to the area, she didn’t know many neighbours or people who could assist her with shopping or errands(跑腿) so the gesture was all the more appreciated. She could only smile sheepishly and sincerely thanked them. With that, the ladies left.After she related this story to me, I thought about how touching this deed really was. Especially in today’s world where sadly, kindness and thoughtfulness seem so rare. I also realized that thinking about others and showing kindness is the real essence of love.1.What does the expression “give them a piece of her mind” in Paragraph 4 mean?A. Scold them severely.B.

Speak out her idea.2.What can be learned about Linda from the passage?A.Linda always hastily shut the front door to many people.B.Linda was not a little interested in any TV whatsoever.C.Linda was very grateful to the ladies for their chicken soup.D.Linda would buy their TV set in reward for the ladies’ chicken soup.3.What’s the best title for the passage?A. A Chicken SoupB. Soup for the soulC. The Real Essence of LoveD. A Friend’s experience(C)Although Adrian Wood had already sent her three oldest children off to White Oak Elementary School in Edenton, North Carolina, she was anxious when it was her youngest son Amos's turn to start classes. Adrian said, “Sending Amos to school was such a different path. He was 3 when he started school. He had autism(自闭症)and he didn't speak."Amos struggled to make friends and fit in, but there was always one person there who was very happy to see him. Raymond Brown has worked at the school as a guard for the past 15 years. All of the students know and love him, and he's truly a friend to all. He started calling Adrian's son “Famous Amos” on day one. To the mom's surprise, Amos quickly began responding with a cheerful "Hey, Brown” whenever he saw him. "He wasn't even saying 'daddy' at home, so it was really something, "Adrian said.“Amos is a hard friend to have," Adrian explained, "He takes a lot more than he gives and that's tough for children. But those kids saw that he was popular and loved, and they started fighting over who would get to hold Amos' hand on the way to the classroom. It meant so much tome that he was favored by the other children at school, and Mr. Brown had a big hand in that.”About a year ago, school officials nominated Mr. Brown for North Carolina's School Hero, a $20,000 prize. When the results came out and he didn't win, Adrian was heartbroken. She couldn't let the disappointing results stand, so she took to Facebook and created an annual “Famous Amos” prize for Mr. Brown in their community. Her neighbors answered the call, donating $35,000 in just one week! Townspeople and school officials gathered in March to celebrate Mr. Brown and give him the money they'd raised. Principal Michelle handed him a giant check and thanked him for everything he does to help kids like Amos find their way.1. What made Adrian worried?A. Her youngest son's bad behavior.B.

Amos became a top student at school.B. Amos got more attention from other kids.C. Amos learned to share and care about others.D. Amos had a better relationship with his family members.3. What did Mr. Brown get in the end?A. The “Famous Amos” prize.B. A check from the local government.C. North Carolina's School Hero prize.D. A small donation from the community.(D)I fell in love with the little Free Library concept years ago on vacation,The concept of free literature-sharing boxes being posted in neighborhoods and public spaces hooked me. For a booklover, this represented great joy.,At home,my bedside table sprouts(长出)books and from the floor rises a mountainous to-be-rend pile,My husband wasn't the least bit surprised when I suggested starting our own Little Free Library.The following winter, my husband built a copy of our Irish garden shed(棚屋)with a framed glass door on the front and, in the spring, fixed it on a post in front of our house. We filled the shelves with books and since then, visitors have refilled them with literary fiction, romances,mysteries, science fiction, cowboy westerns, young-adult fiction,poetry, self-help and a range of other nonfiction.For a time after COVID-19 first-struck, public libraries shut down and Amazon firstly considered the delivery of essential and high demand items. Books were less easily gained. Traffic to our library increased. I posted reminders about hand washing, and still, readers kept coming.We wondered if we should close the Little Free Library and revisited our original motivations for hosting it: to promote the exchange of books, to create a sense of community. Reading provides the necessary relief to the emotional stress of life. With this in mind, we added a written reminder on staying safe in the library.Through my teens, reading transported me to other places and eras. Books taught me about life and how people overcame difficulties. I no longer felt alone in the things I struggled against.Aside from the entertainment books offer, studies show that reading exposes us to other cultures and perspectives. Literature sheds light on the justice to be found in social inclusion (包容)and community focus. Self-esteem (自尊)and understanding grow in equal measure as we come to understand ourselves and our place in the world.During this pandemic, the Little Free Library has strengthened the importance of literature and reading to our emotional and mental health. It's become an alternative means of creating a community of people with mutual regard for humanity and the written word. We are together even when apart.1. What is the husband's attitude toward building the Little Free Library?A.Supportive.B.Negative.C.Indifferent.D.Doubtful.2. What happened to the author's Little Free Library during the pandemic?A. It was no longer allowed to be used.B. The number of books dropped sharply.C. It was getting more popular than before.D.Hand washing stopped readers coming.3.How did reading influence the writer?A.She faced difficulties bravely.B.She knew how to start a library.C.She managed to live a healthy life.D. She moved from one place to another.4. Why did the writer start the Little Free Library?A.To keep away from loneliness.B. To create a sense of community.C.To stay safe during the pandemic.D. To attract readers to donate books.(E)My cellphone rang while I was working on my computer. I looked at the phone and saw it was my 17yearold son, Tom. I quickly picked it up. "Mom, I got a 71 on the test. I did it." With those few words, I could feel my heart start to pound.Living in New York State, students cannot graduate from high school unless they pass at least five exams: one in English, one in science, two in history and one in math. For most students, who work hard, attend class, and do their homework, it isn't that hard. But for Tom, who is dyslexic (朗读困难的), it is such a real challenge that some teachers have feared he would never be able to even attempt, never mind achieve.We were honest with him about his trouble, letting him know that there was nothing to be ashamed of. Some people learn differently. If he was willing to work, we would help him find a way to do as much as he could in his academic career. All that was standing in his way was this math test. He had taken it three times and did better each time, but he continued to fail. He was starting to get a bit tired of me saying this was a marathon not a sprint (冲刺). My heart broke each time we would get the failing results."Mom, thanks. I love you. Thanks for believing I could do this."For one of the few times in my life, I really had nothing left to say. For that one brief moment I knew, really, really, knew that everything we did to help our son achieve what he wanted was worth it.1. What does the underlined word "pound" in Paragraph 1 probably mean?A. Sink suddenly.B. Beat wildly.C. Ache violently.D. Break totally.2. According to the text, Tom was weak in .A. EnglishB. scienceC. historyD. math3. How did the writer feel when she wrote this text?A. She felt proud and satisfied.B. She felt surprised and bitter.C. She felt grateful and relaxed.D. She felt worried and anxious.4. What can be the best title for the text?A. A Mother's Love That Made the GradeB. A Student Who Struggled for a DiplomaC. Failure Is the Mother of SuccessD. Life Is Not a Sprint but a Marathon(F)Leslie Nielsen’s childhood was a difficult one, but he had one particular shining star in his life —his uncle, who was a well-known actor. The admiration and respect his uncle earned inspired Nielsen to make a career (职业) in acting. Even though he often felt he would be discovered to be a no-talent, he moved forward, gaining a scholarship to the Neighborhood Playhouse and making his first television appearance a few years later in 1948. However, becoming a full-time, successful actor would still be an uphill battle for another eight years until he landed a number of film roles that finally got him noticed.But even then, what he had wasn’t quite what he wanted. Nielsen always felt he should be doing comedy but his good looks and distinguished voice kept him busy in dramatic roles. It wasn’t until 1980 —32 years into his career —that he landed the role it would seem he was made for in Airplane! That movie led him into the second half of his career where his comedic presence alone could make a movie a financial success even when movie reviewers would not rate it highly.Did Nielsen then feel content in his career? Yes and no. He was thrilled to be doing the comedy that he always felt he should do but even during his last few years, he always had a sense of curiosity, wondering what new role or challenge might be just around the comer. He never stopped working, never retired.Leslie Nielsen’s devotion to acting is wonderfully inspiring. He built a hugely successful career with little more than plain old hard work and determination. He showed us that even a single desire, never given up on, can make for a remarkable life.1. Why did Nielsen want to be an actor?A. He enjoyed watching movies.B. He was eager to earn money.C. He wanted to be like his uncleD. He felt he was good at acting.2. What do we know about Nielsen in the second half of his career?A. He directed some high quality movies.B. He avoided taking on new challenges.C. He focused on playing dramatic roles.D. He became a successful comedy actor.3. What does Nielsen’s career story tell us?A. Art is long, life is short.B. He who laughs last laughs longest.C. It’s never too late to learn.D. Where there’s a will there’s a way.(G)“They tell me that you’d like to make a statue(塑像) of me-is that correct, Miss Vinnie Ream?”The deep, gentle voice helped calm the nervous girl. Asking a favor of the President of the United States was no casual matter, especially for a seventeen-year-old girl.“Yes, sir,”she replied, her dark eyes meeting his. “I wouldn’t have duo ask you, but my teacher, Mr. Mills, says I am ready. I plan to make it in an admirable manner. “President Lincoln smiled. “Painters, sculptors-they’ve all tried to make the best of this ordinary face, but I’m afraid there’s not much hope. What did you have in mind, Miss Ream? A bust(半身像)?”Before Vinnie could say yes, the President hurried on, a shade of apology in his voice.“Of course-I shouldn’t have asked. A full-length pose would be much too big a project for a young woman your size. “Vinnie’s face turned red. She realized she looked like a child, with her tiny figure. “Small does not mean weak, sir,”she defended herself. “I was born in the country of Wisconsin. I’ve driven teams of horses and carried water. Making a full-length clay(粘土) figure would not exhaust my strength-and that is what I intend to do!”The President’s eyes, brightened at her show of spirit. “Sorry, madam, I have underestimated you as I didn’t know your background.”But his smile faded as he rubbed his beard with bony fingers, in thought. “Miss Ream,”he sighed, “I’d like to let you do it, but as you know, we are in the middle of a war. How could I possibly take the time to pose for a sculpture now? I hardly have a minute to myself.”Vinnie glanced around and noted the size of his office. “I work quickly,”she said. Her voice was soft but confident as she pointed to the corner near the windows. “If I were to bring my clay here and work for three hours every afternoon, I could complete most of the project while you are at your desk.”The President seemed to consider her idea seriously. He got up and shook Vinnie’s hand warmly, “I’ve heard that you are a talented young woman, and I have found you charming and intelligent as well. I cannot make my decision immediately, but you will hear from me soon.”The very next day, Vinnie received an invitation from the President.1. What gave Vinnie confidence to make her request of President Lincoln?A. Her aggressive personality.B. Mr. Mills’s encouraging remark.C. President Lincoln’s gentle voice.D. Her interest in a challenging job.2. How did President Lincoln first respond to Vinnie’s request?A. Pleased.B. Thrilled.C. Regretful.D. Doubtful.3. Vinnie confirmed her ability to make a full-length statue by highlighting ______.A. her experience from other projectsB. her innocent childhood in the countryC. the heavy labor she had done beforeD. the skill she picked up in Wisconsin4. Vinnie wanted to choose the corner near the windows to ______.A. achieve effects of natural lightingB. keep all her tools within easy reachC. observe the President at a right angleD. avoid disturbing the president’s work5. What message does the story convey?A. A strong-willed soul can reach his goal.B. Experience helps to promote excellence.C. Ups and downs make one strong.D. Devotion requires enthusiasm.参考答案A.CBCB.ACBDC.CBAD.ACABE.BDAAF.CDDG.BDCDA。

She finally had lost her long battle with cancer. I heard a door open and shut at the back of the church. Quick footsteps hurried along the floor. A young man looked around briefly and then sat next to me. He folded his hands and placed them on his lap. His eyes were filled with tears. He began to sniffle.“I’m late,” he explained, though no explanation was necessary.After several eulogies (悼词), he asked, “Why do they keep calling Mary by the name of Margaret?”“Because, that was her name, Margaret. Never Mary, no one called her Mary.”I whispered.I wondered why this person couldn’t have sat on the other side of the church. Who was this stranger anyway?“Isn’t this the Lutheran Church?”“No, the Lutheran Church is across the street.”“Oh.”“I believe you’re at the wrong funeral, Sir.”The seriousness of the occasion mixed with the realization of the man’s mistake burst inside me and came out as laughter. I cupped my hands over my face, hoping it would not be noticed. Sharp looks from others only made the situation seem funnier. He was laughing too, as he glanced around, deciding it was too late to leave.“I do believe we’ll be the talk of the town,” he smiled.His name was Rick and, since he had missed his aunt’s funeral, he asked me out for a cup of coffee. That afternoon began a lifelong journey for me with this man who attended the wrong funeral, but was in the right place. A year after our meeting, we were married at a country church. This time we both arrived at the same church, right on time.1.How did the author’s mother pass away?考点16易A.She took her own life.B.She died in an accident.C.She died of old age.D.She died of a cancer.2.What does the underlined word “sniffle” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?考点16易A.Sob.B.Sneeze.plain.D.Yell.3.Whose funeral was the man supposed to attend?考点16易A.His mother’s.B.His teacher’s.C.His aunt’s.D.His wife’s.4.What is the main idea of the passage?考点16中难A.How much the author missed her mother.B.Why the man went to the wrong funeral.C.How the author came across her husband.D.Where the author’s wedding was held.B (考点16中难)After giving a talk at a high school, I was asked to pay a visit to a special student. An illness had kept the boy home, but he had expressed an interest in meeting me, and it would mean a great deal to him. I agreed.During the nine-mile drive to his home, I found out something about Matthew. He had muscular dystrophy(肌肉萎缩症). When he was born, the doctor told his parents that he would not live to see five, and then they were told he would not make it to ten. Now he was thirteen. He wanted to meet me because I was a gold-medal power lifter, and I knew about overcoming obstacles (障碍) and going for my dreams.I spent over an hour talking to Matthew. Never once did he complain or ask, “Why me?” He spoke about winning and succeeding and going for his dreams. Obviously, he knew what he was talking about. He didn’t mention that his classmates had made fun of him because he was different. He just talked about his hopes for the future, and how one day he wanted to lift weight with me.When we finished talking, I went to my briefcase and pulled out the first gold medal I won and put it around his neck. I told him he was more of a winner and knew more about success and overcoming obstacles than I ever would. He looked at it for a moment, then took it off and handed it back to me. He said, “You are a champion. You earned that medal. Someday when I get to the Olympics and win my own medal, I will show it to you.”Last summer I received a letter from Matthew’s parents telling me that Matthew had passed away. They wanted me to have a letter he had written to me a few days before:Dear Rick,My mom said I should send you a thank-you letter for the picture you sent me.I also want to let you know that the doctors tell me that I don’t have long to live anymore. But I still smile as much as I can.I told you someday I was going to the Olympics and win a gold medal. But I know now I will never get to do th at. But I know I’m a champion, and God knows that too. When I get to Heaven, God will give me my medal and when you get there, I will show it to you.

Her arrival at our classroom was always quick,**Good morning, everyone! Small but energetic, she would drop her things on the teacher's table, and move immediately to the blackboard, continuing the material of the last lesson as though we had all just left the room for five minutes. Our books would be out, and we would watch her closely.I’ve thought a lot about Clare Lindsay over the years. What was her special magic? There're two reasons and I think they're necessary for all excellent teachers. She loved her subject, and she loved us,in a patient and objective way. She had no favorites that I can remember, and she called us all by our first names pleasantly. She had a way of teaching that I loved.“Now we could go down this path, couldn't we? We could argue this, and then this, but that doesn't work because of this. No Can Do (NCD)!”She would put a big cross, and write “NCD” against what she had put down. “Right! Why not go down this new path?” And she would show us that this new way worked. It was fun, and her love for maths caught on. We all did well for her, the poor students as well as the skilled. I've never found maths difficult, and 1 put that skill down to her.In fourth and fifth years, we were divided into the science and arts streams, and Mrs. Lindsay taught us all no longer. But as the leaving Certificate exams were coming.one of my friends became nervous about how much math’s he didn't know.

Her name was Mrs. White.I don’t remember much about what we learned in her class, but my mother once told me that we used to write a lot. And I would bring back what I wrote and she would look at it and find there were so many mistakes, but no red corrections, and always a star. Sometimes even a Good! This worried my mother, so one day when she went to meet Mrs. White for one of those Parent-Teacher meetings, she asked her whyshe never red-penciled my mistakes in the right spellings of words or pointed out grammatical errors."The children are just beginning to get excited about using words, or forming sentences. I don't want to damage that enthusiasm with red ink. Spelling and grammar can wait. The wonder of words won’t." Mrs. White said.Later I knew that if Mrs. White had used her red pen often I probably wouldn't be telling you about this now. I look back now and think she must have been a rather extraordinary teacher to exercise such red-pen-restraint (限制). I used to misspell "beautiful" a lot, and never could quite remember that the "e" went before the "a". It annoyed my teacher in high school. If I was going to employ the word with such lavishness (华丽丰富的语言) she figured the least I could do was spell it right. Eventually the e's and a's settled into their right hold as much as you mean sometimes.And thanks to Mrs. White, I had no worry about writing what I meant even ifI couldn’t quite spell it out. Because life isn’t "Pretty".It’s "Beautiful".1.The underlined word "This" in the second paragraph refers to the factthat .考点16易A.I always made mistakes in my spellingB. Mrs. White often made wrong correctionsC. Mrs. White's attitude towards my mistakes was specialD. mother wanted to know how to improve my spellings2.From what Mrs. White said we can infer that .考点16易A. grammar and spelling should be paid more attention toB. children don't have the patience in spelling wordsC. children's interest of learning words is very importantD. red corrections are used to draw children's attention3.The writer may probably think his/her high schoolteacher .考点16易A. taught in the same way as Mrs. White had doneB. was not satisfied with his/her mistakes made in spellingC. should tell him/her how to improve words spellingD. paid much attention to teach students to use proper words第II卷(非选择题)(每题1.5分,共60分)(1)(考点中难)The Moon’s near side, the one we all see, has been the target of many robotic and human missions.

2022高三英语阅读专项训练之记叙文(A)Mrs.Black was having a lot of trouble with her skin, so she went to her doctor about it. He could not find anything wrong with her, however. So he sent her to the local hospital for some tests. The hospital, of course, sent the resul ts of the tests direct to Mrs. Black’s doctor, and the next morning he telephoned her to give her a list of the things that he thought she could not eat, as any of them might be the cause of her skin trouble. Mrs. Black carefully wrote all the things down on a piece of paper, which she then left beside the telephone while she went out to a ladies’ meeting.When she got back home two hours later, she found her husband waiting for her. He had a big basket full of packages beside him, and when he saw her, he s aid, “Hello, dear. I have done all your shopping for you.” “Done all my shopping?” She asked in surprise. “But how did you know what I wanted?” “Well, when I got home, I found your shopping list beside the telephone,” answered her husband. “So I went down to the shops and bought everything you had written down.”Of course, Mrs.Black had to tell him that what he had thought were all the things the doctor did not allow her to eat.1.The doctor who Mrs. Black went to see________.A.didn’t find the cause of her illnessB.didn't examine her carefully enoughC.wanted to fool herD.took her to a local hospital2.The doctor telephoned her the next morning because________.A.Mrs. Black l eft the list of foods at the doctor’sB.he wanted her to come to his office againC.he didn't receive the results of the testsD.he thought she should stop eating some foods, any of which might cause her disease 3.The word “He” in the second paragraph refe rs to ________.A.Mr. Black B.a doctor in the local hospitalC.Mrs. Black’s doctor D.someone else we don’t know4.From the passage, we can tell Mr. Black was________.A.at home when his wife answered the telephone B.a stupid manC.an honest husband D.about to leave for a meeting(B)At the beginning of Grade Two, I joined the cross-country running team in our school.When I came to the first practice, I was filled with optimism. But as the distance we ran in each practice gradually increased from three to four, to six miles, I realized with surprise that no matter how hard I tried, I wasn't able to run as fast as others. In fact, I was one of the slowest on the team.What was the point of putting myself through so much pain? After the first few weeks, I wanted to quit.Then we had our first cross-country meet.When we started the race, I felt the great pressure of expectations sink onto my shoulders. And after a while I stopped running and struggled to walk up the hill. But then I heard my coaches shouting my name from the top of the hill. I felt confused and embarrassed; why were they cheering for me? I was running terribly! As I tried my best to finish the race, I realized that my coaches didn't care how fast I ran. Neither did my teammates. During the rest of the season, they were always on the sidelines of every race, cheering for me just as loudly as they'd cheered for the front runner.From then on, I began to put my effort into supporting my teammates instead of focusing on my own performance. In that way, I celebrated my teammates' victories as if they were my own; I felt their pain and exhaustion as if they were my own.Cross-country running made me realize I don’t need to be the best to be succ essful in life. It taught me to value my relationships with people more than my relationship with my ego. It taught me to cheer for others even if I don't know their names.1. Why did the author want to give up after the first few weeks?A. He had much pain in his knees.B. He didn’t perform well in long-distance running.C. He couldn’t get along well with othersD.

The benefits of doing sports(C)Lewis Carroll was the pen-name o£ Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, an English writer and author of two of the best loved children's books in English literature——Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass. The characters and phrases from these books have entered and become part of the English lexicon(词典) in a way that was comparable to those from Shakespeare's works.Charles Dodgson was born on January 27,1832 and spent the first eleven years of his life at Warrington. Dodgson was educated first by homeschooling, then at boarding schools in Richmond and at Rugby, and finally at Charist Church College, Oxford. In later life, he remembered his boarding school experience with no fondness. Still, he was an excellent student and did very well academically throughout. For all his brilliance or perhaps because of it, he couldn't be bothered to spend long hours studying and so he didn't. If things came easily, that was fine; if they didn't, well, that doesn't seem to have bothered him overmuch.His book Alice's Adventures in Wonderland first came into being in 1862 as a story he made up for Alice Liddell, the ten-year-old daughter of his friend Dean Henry Liddell. Later he wrote it down and showed the book, illustrated with his own drawings, to another friend, the fairy tale writer George Macdonald and his children. They loved it and enthusiastically urged him to get itpublished. Accordingly, Dodgson revised it for publication. And in 1865, with illustrations more professionally done by Sir John Tenniel, it became an immediate bestseller. Its sequel(续集) Through the Looking-Glass proved equally popular.1. What does paragraph 1 intend to tell us?A. Charles Dodgson was more famous than Shakespeare.B. Charles Dodgson had great achievements in literature.C. Charles Dodgson once worked on the English lexicon.D. Charles Dodgson was a writer with a few works.2. What do we know about Charles Dodgson from paragraph 2?A. He was a hard-working student.B. He struggled with his studies,C. He received very little schooling.D. He performed high study efficiency.3. What probably led to the publication of Alice's Adventures in WonderlandsA. The persuasion from George Macdonald.B. The help from Dean Henry Liddell.C. The guidance of Sir John Tenniel.D. The demand of a publisher.4. When Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland first came into being, Charles Dodgson .A. had a little boy as its main characterB. wrote it just for his childrenC. was sure it could be popularD. didn't expect it to be published(D)On Tuesday, Guinness World Records announced through its official micro blog account that livestreaming star Li Ziqi had, with 14.1 million followers, beaten her own earlier record as the person with the most followers on the Chinese YouTube channel. On July 16, she had 11.4 million followers, also a record. She attracted so many followers in just four years, since debuting on the platform with her first short video, titled Making a dress of grape skins, in 2017. In it, Li showed how she kept the skins of grape after eating the fruit, boiled them in water and used the emerging purple dye to color dress.Though she features on YouTube’s Chinese channel, her appeal knows no boundaries, with viewers around the world commenting favorably under her videos. Wh at’s the secret behind Li’s mass appeal? The answer seems obvious after watching her videos. Instead of preaching(说教)to her audiences, Li tells her story as it is, like, say, about growing beans, harvesting them,grinding them into powder and fermenting it to make bean sauce in the traditional Chinese way. That way she also ends up promoting traditional Chinese culture before a global audience.However, what she promotes is often a legacy(传统)of the past China is no longer how she depicts it in her videos. Chinese farmers now harvest crops with machines, not with hands, and have long been cooking with natural gas, instead of using wood.All the progress that technology can bring has reached China. It is time for more Chinese individuals and media to draw a fuller portrait of modern China before the world.1. Which of the following statements is RIGHT?A. Li has the most followers in the world.B. Li defeated a livestreaming star, becoming the person with the most followers.C. Li had 14.1 million followers on July16.D. Li is a livestreaming star with the most followers on the Chinese YouTube.2. Which one of the following processes is NOT included in her first short video?A. boiling the skins of grape in waterB. keeping the skins of grapeC. storing the skins of grape in a container for a weekD. using the emerging purple dye to color a dress3. What’s the secret behind Li’s mass appeal?A. her style and contentB. her beauty and kindnessC. her imagination and creativityD. her diligence and persistence4. In the last two paragraphs, the author appeals us to .A. follow Li to be a livestreaming starB. present an all-round modern China before the worldC. promote our ancient traditional crafts and cultureD. study hard to contribute to the construction of our motherland(E)Having a microchip implanted in a man's brain may be common in sci-fi movie plots, but it may soon become an actual possibility.Elon Musk -a US tech tycoon, founder of Space X- has been working on this technology. OnAug 28, Musk gave a display of the chip, which was implanted into the head of a pig named Gertrude.The chip, developed by Musk's company Neuralink, is the size of a coin. But don't let its size fool you. The tiny chip has over 3,000 electrodes (电极)attached to flexible threads, which can monitor about 1,000 neurons (神经元).It collects neural signals from an area of the brain, and then transmits those signals wirelessly to nearby computers, according to MSN. That enabled researchers to monitor Gertrude's brain activity while she was walking around in the display.Though the technology is still in its early stage, it is encouraging for humans. This technology would solve a lot of brain injuries and is essentia] for Al symbiosis, which will allow the human brain to combine with an artificial intelligence.When the device can be applied to humans, its main goal will be to help those who have mobility difficulties. Musk hopes this technology can also be used to help those with hearing and eyesight issues.Although such a device could repair those problems, putting it into practice is by no means a piece of cake. Currently, the device can transmit signals from about 500 neurons in the pig's brain. Compared to 80 billion neurons in a human brain, this number is tiny. And to cover the whole human brain also means the electrodes have to be much smaller.Also, implanting the chip into the brain poses a potential danger. There is a risk of the immune system attacking this foreign body.Right now, the hope of controlling the brain via controlling a few neurons seems overly optimistic. "There are many technological challenges ... to overcome before Neuralink can put its devices to the purposes," Y uan Lanfeng, an associate professor at the University of Science and Technology of China, told China Daily.1. What do we know about Elon Musk's microchip?A. It was inspired by sci-fi movie plots.B. It is able to collect wireless signals.C. It is tiny in size but powerful in function.D. It has been implanted into a human's brain.2. What does the underlined word “t hat" in Paragraph 3 refer to?A. The operation of the chip in Gertrude’s brain.B. The attachment of electrodes to flexible threads.C. The development of neurons inside Gertrude's brain.D. The transmission of signals from a nearby computer3. What is the major target of the microchip?A. To monitor animals’ brain activity.B. To help people with mobility issues.C. To develop a cure for immune system problems.D. To contribute to the research on Al technologies.4. How does Yuan Lanfeng feel about implanting the chip into the human brain?A. Worried.B. Excited.C. Optimistic.D. Challenged.(F)In our everyday lives we meet situations in which we take many things for granted(不去重视).We only treasure things when they are gone.This is a sad truth of human nature.One day,I found myself as a witness to a similar situation.One evening,I left work and boarded the train.After entering,I noticed something unusual.The center of the car had a few empty seats while both ends were crowded with people standing.I didn't pay much attention and sat down on one of the empty seats.I sensed a funny smell.It wasn't long before I noticed a homeless person sleeping on three seats in front of me.He was bleeding from his nose.Why wasn't anyone helping him?His clothes were torn and he was giving off a strange smell.Along with the smell,his eyes were dull,watery and red.Occasionally he scratched himself and people looked at him as if he had committed a crime.As the train stopped at stations and more people came in they covered their noses and faced away from him.All the seats around him were empty.Suddenly,he began to swear at the people around him.A plain clothes policeman who looked like a construction worker took out his certificate and showed it to the homeless man.The officer,not wanting to touch the homeless man, told him his rights and directed him to exit the train.As the officer walked the man out of the train,the homeless man turned around and said "MY HOME!" and started crying.A man doesn't value things until they are gone.If he didn't have a home,at least he hadfreedom.Now he has neither.No one wants to help someone who won't help himself.1. When entering the car,how did the author feel at first?A. Annoyed.B. Puzzled.C. Sad.D. Calm.2. How did people react to the homeless man?A. They caught him and called the police.B. They covered him with clean clothes.C. They disliked and avoided him.D. They stared at him curiously.3. It can be learned that the policeman .A. was very rude to the manB. sent the man back to his hometownC. forced the man to leave the cityD. went off the train with the man4. What does the author think of the homeless man?A. He is a loser of life.B. He is worth our respect.C. He is very funny.D. He is a fearless fighter.(G)He has jumped off tall buildings,been lit on fire,and fought the deadliest people on the planet.And you know what? For Greg Rementer,it’s all in a day’s work.Rementer is part of a group of men and women who bring your favorite action scenes to life on film and television.He was hired to stand in for actors when a scene carries real risk or requires special skills.On the set of Captain America:Civil War,for example,Rementer stepped in for actor Sebastian Stan.Rementer had to jump 45 feet from one building onto another —after being thrown down a flight of stairs.Stunts (特技) have always been part of movies.But in the early days of Hollywood,actors generally did their own stunts.When actors didn’t do their own stunts,filmmakers would simply hire the first person they could find crazy enough to give it a go.Accidents that resulted in serious injuries were not uncommon.Today,most stunt performers know how to safely fall from great heights.Many have sports backgrounds.Bobby Holland Hanton,who performed in Avengers:Age of Ultron,was a gymnast.Katie Eischen,who worked in The Hunger Games:Catching Fire,did volleyball.As for Rementer,he has been studying martial arts (武术) since primary school.Rementer loves his job,but it’s hardly glamorous.Days on set can be long and hard;it’s common to work 14 hours at a time in uncomfortable locations.A stunt that lasts a few seconds can take hours to set up.Plus,stunt performers must train continuously to stay in shape.Being a stunt performer today is much safer than it used to be,thanks to better equipment and strict rules in Hollywood.But injuries are still part of the job.After all,if stunts were completely safe,stunt performers wouldn’t be needed.“I’ve been fortunate,” Rementer says,explaining that he hasn’t had any serious accidents.“I’ve had some broken arms,broken toes,and a lot of bruises.But when you’re doing things like riding wires into concrete walls,you’re going to feel it.You just have to be ready to get up and go again.”1.What was Rementer hired to do?A.Bring boring stories to life.B.Encourage actors to do sports.C.Perform dangerous actions for actors.D.Instruct Sebastian Stan in special skills.2.Why did the author mention some stunt performers in Paragraph 3?A.To introduce their stunts.B.To praise their great skills.C.To show they are highly trained.D.To stress the importance of sports backgrounds.3.Which of the following can best replace the underlined word “glamorous” in Paragraph 4?A.Tiring.B.Attractive.C.Dangerous.D.Meaningful.4.What can we infer about Rementer from his words?A.He takes pleasure in risky jobs.B.He suffers misfortune every day.C.He has a strong sense of professionalism.D.He has a love-hate relationship with his job.参考答案A.ADACB.BCDAC.BDADD.DCABE.1:由文章第三段中的句子“The chip, developed by Musk's company Neuralink, is thesize of a coin.

高中阅读理解专项训练附答案解析1篇It’s hard to avoid looking like a fool on April Fool’s Day. On April 1 each year, people play tricks on each other. These tricks are usually silly rather than mean. Classmates sometimes tie each other’s shoelaces to their chairs. Teachers might hand out an impossibly difficult surprise test that scares students before they realise it’s only a joke. Newspapers announce fake contests (such as “Win an elephant!”) and report on fake stories (like “UFO” lands in New York City).Forget gifts, songs and special foods-those are for the other holidays of the year. On April Fool’s Day, the only tradition is to laugh (and maybe to cause a little bit of trouble).One April Fool’s Day, when I was in high school, a group of students in my class played a very clever and funny trick on the teachers. They bought some chickens and set them free in our school cafeteria. The chickens ran all round the school, in and out of classrooms and under our feet. Feathers were flying everywhere.Teachers began running after the chickens, trying to catch them. Finally, they caught four of them. But the chickens were wearing numbered tags around their necks, and the teachers discovered that they had only caught chickens NO. 1, 2, 3, and 5. Where was chicken No. 4?The te achers looked and looked. They couldn’t find another chicken. After a few hours, they realised that the students had played another joke on them: There were only four chickens in the first place! They’d been tricked by the numbers on the chickens.It’s been a long time since I was in high school, but that April Fool’s Day remains one of my favourite memories from those years.1.What can we infer from the first paragraph on April Fool’s Day?A.Everyone is hard to avoid being fooled on April Fool’s Day.B.Students play jokes on teachers on April Fool’s Day.C.Teachers play tricks on students on April Fool’s Day.D.Newspapers often cheat people.2.Why did students set chickens free?A.They wanted to let chickens free. B.They wanted to let chickens run all round the school.C.They wanted to see feathers flying. D.They wanted to play a trick on the teachers. 3.How many jokes did the students play on the teachers?A.One. B.Two. C.Three. D.Four.【答案】1.A2.D3.B【分析】这是一篇记叙文。

记叙文——2024届高考英语高考阅读理解文体分类练学校:___________姓名:___________班级:___________考号:___________一、阅读理解2012 was one of the hardest years I have ever known because I lost my husband. For several months, I found it hard to write, think, eat or take pleasure in anything; I could not imagine what it would be like to feel happy again; I could not find any hope or purpose.I cannot remember the reason why one Monday morning I decided to go to a hot yoga(瑜伽) studio in east London, where I signed up for a 30-day trial. I do not remember the class or how much I sweated. What I do know is that I started going to hot yoga every day. Sometimes, when my head felt as if it might break me down, I went twice a day. I skipped parties, left social events and got up early to attend. There was something about the hot room that held me together, stopping all the dark thoughts inside my mind.I chose the Bikram method of hot yoga: It has a set of 26 postures and two breathing exercises performed in heat over a period of 90 minutes. This form of yoga was founded by Bikram Choudhury. In 2015, he failed in an attempt to copyright his method. Many practitioners (从业人员) believe that Bikram is not real yoga. Some question the limitations of just 26 postures (姿势). Others wonder why the class has to be performed before a wall of mirrors. However, something in those 26 postures freed my mind, dragged me out of my thoughts and back into the present. I was able to focus on how my body behaved differently each day.1.What happened to the author in 2012?A.She fell into deep depression.B.She tried to find hope againC.She gave up her yoga classes.D.She succeeded in writing.2.What can be inferred about the author from the second paragraph?A.She practiced hot yoga to lose weight.B. She went to the yoga studio once every day.C.She attached importance to her yoga classesD. She was sorry to skip parties to go to the yoga studio3.How did yoga help the author?A.It helped her make moneyB.It helped her feel more focusedC.It helped her get to know its founder.D.It helped her practice her performance skills.4.Where is this text most likely from?A. Science fiction.B. A travel brochure.C. A research paper.D. A health magazineLife has been hard for Chinese villager Zu Wenbao, who is in his early 20s. But thanks to Beijing-based Chen's Studio, music has become his saving grace. Zu has autism (自闭症) , which has meant Zu was unable to fit in at school or among other young people. All that changed when he started learning music at Chen's Studio.Zu, joined the five-studio school in 2020.He has since learned to play the keyboard, and sings along with the other members of the "Star Kids "band that their teacher, Chen Shensi, set up in 2021 for people with autism. "Without music and band, he wouldn't have any peers to socialise with, "said Zu's mother, who travels with her son every Sunday for two hours on three different buses from their current home in the suburb of Beijing so that he can attend classes. "Even though some kids taking music classes are younger than him and half his size, they all take care of him like he's their brother."Eager to help more people with autism, Chen started free-of-charge lessons. "Life for them has been hard, and I wanted to do as much as I could to give them joy through music, "he said. Chen admits he was very frustrated at first with his students because he had to repeat himself many times. Disciplining the class was also tough, but eventually, the students started communicating better with him and each other.People with autism tend to find it difficult to get jobs, but Chen hopes he can change that by giving his students a way to earn a living: the "Star Kids" band has already performed in several concerts at events held at campsites on the suburbs of Beijing. "It's just difficult for them to communicate normally with other people, let alone work in a typical job, but they might be able to make a living as artists. To some degree, I think music might be their language, "Chen said.5.What might be the main reason for Zu attending Chen's studio?A.Chen found Zu's talent for keyboard.B.Chen's studio was the best in Beijing.C.Zu was born enthusiastic about music.D.Zu couldn't integrate into a normal school.6.What did Zu gain from Chen's studio?A.Attention from society.B.Extraordinary musical skills.C.Admiration of other students.D.Chances to communicate with peers. 7.Which of the following words can best describe Chen?A.Creative and generous.B.Devoted and intelligent.C.Responsible and caring.D.Considerate and cooperative.8.What is the intention of Chen setting up the studio?A.To instruct his students to get a degree in music and language.B.To help his students master a way to earn a living through music.C.To teach some communication skills to his students with autism.D.To make money through performing concerts at the edge of Beijing.It was early winter several years ago. I had pulled out my old winter coat for another year’s use. It was still in pretty good shape although it was looking dirty from so many winters’ wear. I didn’t really need a new one but I wanted one and casually mentioned it to my daughter one day. She was such a sweet, loving girl that I should have guessed what would happen next. A few weeks later she gave me a new winter coat as a gift.I put the old one in my closet and started to wear the new coat every day. Each day, though, when I opened my closet, something troubled me. It seemed a shame that my old but still good coat should just sit there keeping no one warm during the cold winter days. After a few weeks, I took it out and drove to a local charity shop. I knew that there was someone who couldn’t afford a coat but could get my old one.My new coat is my old coat now. It is getting a little dirty and worn, too. It has black marks on the sleeves. It is in too bad shape to even donate to charity. I wonder if I should buy a new one soon, but I think I will wait for a while. I don’t really need a new one and maybe I can find something else to give to the charity shop instead.Ralph Waldo Emerson once said, “Want is a growing giant whom the coat of Have was never large enough to cover.” Perhaps the best way to deal with our wants then is to give instead. Love, after all, brings us the most joy. And the more of it you give away, the more of it you have.9.Which word can best describe the author’s daughter?A. Wealthy.B. Thoughtful.C. Easy-going.D. Humorous.10.Why was the author in shame when seeing his old coat in the closet?A. It cost too much.B. It was looking dirty.C. There was not enough room for his new coat.D. It was not sent to someone in need.11.What is th e author’s decision after his second coat becomes old?A. Telling his daughter.B. Buying a new one soon.C. Donating it to charity.D. Sending something else to charity.12.What does the author want to show in the last paragraph?A. Giving fills our wants.B. Love is the key to joy.C. The more you give, the more you lose.D. A coat is large enough to cover our wants.The Price of a DreamI grew up poor. We had little money, but plenty of love and attention. I understood that no matter how poor a person was, they could still afford a dream. My dream was athletics.By the time I was sixteen, I was good at baseball and football. My high school coach was Ollie Jarvis. He not only believed in me, but taught me the difference between having a dream and showing conviction (信念).One summer a friend recommended me for a summer job. This meant a chance for money in my pocket — cash for dates with girls, certainly, money for a new bike and new clothes, and the start of savings for a house for my mother.Then I realized I would have to give up summer baseball to handle the work schedule, and that meant I would have to tell Coach Jarvis I wouldn’t be playing. I was afraid of this, but my mother said, “If you make your bed, you have to lie in it.”When I told Coach Jarvis, he was as mad as I expected him to be. “Your playing days are limited. You can’t afford to waste them,” he said.I stood before him with my head hanging, trying to think of the words that would explain to him why I dream of buying my mom a house.“How much are you going to make at this job, son?” he demanded.“Three point twenty-five an hour,” I replied.“Well,” he asked, “is $3. 25 an hour the price of a dream?”That question exposed the difference between wanting something right now and having a goal. I devoted myself to sports that summer, and within the year I was drafted by the Pittsburgh Pirates to play rookie-league ball, and offered a $20, 000 contract. I signed with the Denver Broncos in 1984 for $1.7 million, and bought my mother my dream house. 13.Why was the writer grateful to Coach Jarvis?A. Because Coach Jarvis made him set a goal.B. Because Coach Jarvis supplied him with new clothes.C. Because Coach Jarvis gave him financial support.D. Because Coach Jarvis helped him show conviction.14.What did the writer want to do when he was offered a job?A. Balance summer baseball and the work schedule.B. Refuse the job offer for summer baseball.C. Give up summer baseball for the job.D. Ask his coach Jarvis for advice.15.Which of t he following can replace the underlined part “If you make your bed, you have to lie in it.” in paragraph 4?A. You must eat the bitter fruit of your own making.B. Believe in yourself, but above all be patient.C. You must rely on yourself first, then others.D. A good beginning makes a good ending.16.What did the writer do at the end of the story?A. He failed to buy his mother a house.B. He succeeded as a sportsman.C. He became a successful businessman.D. He made some money in the summer job.Culture shock is a broad term for a series of personal difficulties that people go through in new places ant is usually most extreme for those who can not speak the language of the place they have moved to or for those who aren’t familiar with the social r ules. Both of these things applied to me in China when I moved there in 2011. So, naturally I went through the full well-known stages of culture shock: the honeymoon, frustration, adjustment and acceptance.When I arrived I was excited and optimistic but I quickly became annoyed by cultural differences, missing how things worked back home.By the end of my first year I had totally lost my self confidence and I became a bit clumsy and sensitive person and I thought it was China that made me that way.Then in my second year I started to pick up some language skills and I found fun activities to do in my spare time. I made great foreign and Chinese friends and later I developed an interest in Chinese history and culture. Based on the above I learned to considermyself a confident and happy foreigner.Today I’m back in the US where I’m pursuing a PhD at university in my hometown. It’sculture shock, experiencing the four stages in the opposite order.I’d complain loudly about the little things like I could no longer shout “ fu wu yuan” to get a waiter’s attention in a restaurant. But eventually I came to realize that my home had become an entirely new place when I was away. That, by itself ,was exciting. 17.Which stage of culture shock does paragraph 3 mainly describe?A. The honeymoon.B. Frustration .C. Adjustment.D. Acceptance. 18.Which least help the author ease his culture shock in China ?A. Making local friends.B. Joining in fun activities.C.

He needed to adjust himself to his native life.Super Typhoon Rai (known as “Odette” in the Philippines) made landfall on Siargao Island in southeastern Philippines at 1:30 pm local time on Thursday, December 16.
