阅读理解专练(一) 人物与故事(限时20分钟)A(2018·安徽江淮十校联考)It was dawn of March 21, 2018.Gary Messina was on his morning run along New York City's East River.Suddenly something caught his eye —a large 60yearold man balancing on the fourfoothigh fence that guarded the path from the water.As Messina got closer to the scene, the man took a step forward and slipped into the dark river below.When Messina reached nearer, the man was struggling in the water, clearly unable to swim.Other joggers also heard the man's cry.David Blauzvern and John Green dropped their phones and keys on land and jumped in.“People had called the police, but it was unclear when they'd get there,”says Green.“We just reacted.”Messina joined them in the river.Just as the jumper was losing strength, Blauzvern took hold of him.The pair were about 30 yards from the seawall when Messina and Green caught up to him.They seized the man, with Blauzvern supporting his back and Messina and Green holding him up from either side.As the men made their way toward the concrete seawall that stretched for blocks in each direction, Blauzvern had an awful realization: there was no way out of the river.By now, a crowd had gathered on land.“A rescue boat is on its way,”someone yelled to them.Swimming forward was getting tougher by the minute.The jumper, who was six foot two and weighed around 260 pounds, was heavy in his rescuers' arms.After ten minutes, they managed to get to the river's edge.“I've never been so out of breath,”says Blauzvern.Fifteen minutes after the men had jumped into the river, the twoman rescue boat appeared.But because it couldn't risk getting too close to the seawall, the men had to swim out to it.“I was completely out of energy at this point,”says Blauzvern.The men in the water pushed the jumper while the men in the boat pulled him up and, finally, to safety.The man they had saved was taken to the hospital for evaluation (评估).Details on his condition have not been released.As for the rescuers, each of them was at work by 10:30 a.m.“I was a bit late,”admits Blauzvern, smiling.“But I had a goodexcuse.”语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文,介绍了一场路人勇救落水者的故事。
2021高考英语二轮阅读理解精选〔59〕及解析ASome Wise Lessons That I Wish I Knew When I Was Younger 1. Don’t worry about what other people think of you .If you’re wasting too much time seeking respect or approval from others,then you won’t have time to acchieve all that you desire. Everyone has an opinion, but in reality other’s opinions of you are based more on their history and observations than anything you’re actually doing. So while it’s good to ask for feedback , rely on your own assessment of you rather than others.2. Believe in yourself .If you do not have confidence in your own value, then nobody else will either. You do not have to be able to see the end zone. Just because you aren’t able to see where you might go and how you might succeed, that doesn’t mean it will not happen. And just because you may have made mistakes and have a string of failures behind you does not mean that you can’t achieve your goals in the future.3. Don’t burn your bridges .You never know when a former boss, colleague or business partner may come in handy. Try to part on goodterms, stay on good terms and never gossip (说三道四) about former connections. Keep connections on all levels. A wide pool of friends and connections of all kinds will provide a wealthy resource of ideas and support as you go forward in life. (The exception would be dishonest, disrespectful or offensive people. Cut them loose!)4. ____________________We have so much to acchieve and it feels as though we have to be in a hurry to get there. But you do not have to do it all at once. In fact, if you do, you will, at best not have time to enjoy it and at worst burn out and damage your health and relationships. Slow down and take one thing at a time. Yes, make plans, but don’t be in such a rush.56. According to the writer , if others don’t think well of you , ______ .A. you should work harder to change their opinionsB. you should not waste time achieving what you wantC. you should not care too much about it and trust yourselfD. you should try to get more feedback from them57. What does the underlined word “ it 〞refer to ( Para. 2 )A. The end zone.B. Success.C. Your goals.D. Confidence.58. What does the third paragraph tell usA. Wealthy friends can give us inspiration and support .B. We should befriend those people who can help us .C. We should keep our former relationships .D. We should make friends with people of all kinds .59. Which of the following is the most suitable for the blank in Paragraph 4A. Look for the good in life .B. Don’t achieve y our goals in haste(匆忙) .C. Take things slow whatever you do .D. Make plans for your life .BUntil last spring, Nia Parker and the other kids in her neighborhood went to school on Bus 59. But as fuel prices rose, the school district needed to find a way to cut its transportation costs. So the school’s busing company redrew its route map, canceling Nia’s bus. Now Nia and her neighbors travel the half mile to school via a “walking school bus〞—a group of kids, supervised (监护) by an adult or two, who make the walk together.Many parents are delighted to see their kids walking to school, partly because many did so themselves. According toa 1979 survey, nearly half of school kids walked or biked to school, compared with only 16 percent in 2021. Modern parents have been unwilling to let kids walk to school for fear of traffic, crime or simple bullying, but with organized adult supervision, those concerns have reduced.Schools and busing companies are finding other ways to save money. In rural areas where busing is a must, some schools have even chosen four-day school weeks. Busing companies instruct drivers to cancel extra stops from routes and to turn off the engine while idling(挂空挡). They are also using computer software to determine the most fuel-efficient ro utes, which aren’t always the shortest ones.There could be disadvantages, however, to the busing cutbacks. If every formerly bused student begins walking to school, it’s an environmental win—but if too many of their parents decide to drive them instead, the overall carbon footprint can grow. Replacing buses with many more parent-driven cars can also increase safety risks. A 2021 report concluded students are 13 times safer on a school bus than in a passenger car, since buses have fewer accidents and withstand (经受住) them better due to their size. And some students complain about the long morning hikes,particularly when the route contains a really big hill.60.According to the passage, how does Nia Parker go to school nowA. By bus.B. By car.C. On foot.D. By bike.61. In regards to walking to school, modern parents seem much concerned with the _____.A. safety of their kidsB. kids’ physical strengthC. time spent on the wayD. changes in the route62. To save money, some schools choose to _____.A. shorten the school weekB. take the shortest routesC. stop using school busesD. use fuel-efficient buses63. Busing cutbacks may lead to _____.A. fewer complaints about long morning hikesB. more students taking public transportationC. an increase in carbon dioxide emissionsD. a decrease in the safety of school busesCIt's still there, the Vietnamese school where my brother and I used to go. Even with a new coat of paint and the high wire fence, the school I knew ten years ago remains the same.Every day at 5 p.m., instead of flying kites with our friends, my brother and I had to go to Vietnamese school. No amount of kicking, screaming, or arguing could stop my mother, who was determined to have us learn the language of our culture. She held us by the collar and walked with us the seven long, hilly blocks from our home to school, leaving our tearful faces before the front of the school.W e all sat in little chairs in a big empty room, which had a slight smell of old clothes that had been stored for a long time.I hated that smell. There was a stage far to the right, with an American flag on one side and the flag of the Republic of Vietnam on the other side.Although the school mainly taught language - speaking, reading, dictation - the lessons always began with an exercise in politeness. With the entrance of the teacher, the best student would tap a bell and everyone would get up, and say in Vietnamese, "How are you, teacher"The language always made me embarrassed. More oftenthan not, I had tried to separate myself from the loud voice that followed me whenever I went to the American supermarket outside our area. The voice belonged to my grandmother, a small old woman who could shout louder than anyone on the street. Her Vietnamese was quick, it was loud, it was not beautiful.In our area, the comings and goings of hundreds of Vietnamese on their daily tasks sounded crazy. I did not want to be thought of as being mad, as talking stupid. When I spoke English, people nodded at me, smiled and encouraged me. Even Vietnamese people would laugh and say that I'd do well in life.My brother was even stricter than I about speaking English. He was especially cruel towards my mother, scolding her for her poor English. Bits of Vietnamese were often mixed in her conversation.After two years of struggle, I finally divorced my culture. I was permitted to stop Vietnamese school. I thought of myself as American. At last, I thought I was one of you; I wasn't one of them.Sadly, I am only an American.64. What can be learned from the passageA. The author’s brother liked learning Vietnamese.B. The author’s mother taught him English at ho me.C. The author didn’t like learning Vietnamese when he was young.D. The author’s mother put her sons in a language school in Vietnam.65. The author often felt embarrassed because ________.A. his Vietnamese was not beautiful enoughB. he could not fly kites like other kids at schoolC. his grandma spoke Vietnamese loudly in publicD. his mother always treated him rudely in the market66. It can be inferred from the last paragraph that the author feels ________.A. frightenedB. peacefulC. satisfiedD. regretful67. What’s the theme of the passageA. It is important to adapt to a new environment.B.It is important to appreciate your own culture.C. It is important to remember your childhood.D. It is important to learn a foreign language.DIt’s 10 pm. You may not know where your child is, butthe chip(芯片) does.The chip will also know if your child has fallen and needs immediate help. Once doctors arrive, the chip will also be able to tell them which drugs are not suitable for little Johnny or Janie. At the hospital, the chip will tell doctors his or her complete medical history. And of course, when you arrive to pick up your child, settling the hospital bill with your health insurance policy will be a simple matter of waving your own chip-the one embedded〔植入〕in your hand.To some, this may sound unbelievable. But the technology for such chips is no longer the stuff (东西) of science fiction. And it may soon offer many other benefits besides locating(定位) lost children or elderly patients. It could be used as credit cards and people won’t have to carry wallets anymore.On the other hand, some are already wondering what this sort of technology may do to the sense of personal privacy and liberty.“An y technology of this kind could result in improper use of personal privacy,〞says Lee Tien, senior staff attorney for the Electronic Frontier Foundation. “If a kid can be tracked, do you want other people to be able to track your kid It’s adouble-edged sword.〞Applied Digital Solutions, Inc. in Palm Beach, Florida, says it has recently applied to the Food and Drug Administration for permission to begin testing its device in humans. About the size of a grain of rice, the microchip can be encoded (编码) with bits of information and embedded in humans under a layer (表层)of skin. When scanned by a nearby reader, the embedded chip gives the data.Most embedded chip designs are so-called passive chips, which give information only when scanned by a nearby reader. But active chips---such as the proposed〔被提议〕Digital Angel of the future---will give out information all the time. And that means designers will have to develop some sort of power source that can provide a continuous source of energy, yet be small enough to be embedded with the chips.In addition to technical problems, many suspect that all sorts of legal and privacy issues would have to be cleared as well.68. By using the example in the first two paragraphs, the author wants to tell us that .A. chips are usually used to locate lost childrenB. chips are more convenient than credit cardsC. chips will soon be useful in many aspects of daily livesD. chips will bring out the issue of abuse of personal privacy69. What is the attitude of Lee Tien towards the chipsA. Negative.B. Indifferent(冷漠旳).C. Arbitrary(随意旳).D. Cautious.70. Which of the following statements about Digital Angel is NOT trueA. Digital Angel will include at least a chip and a power source.B. Digital Angel will soon be produced and replace passive chips.C. Digital Angel will be embedded in humans under a layer of skin.D. Digital Angel will give information without being scanned by a reader.71. It is indicated in the passage that chip producers have toconsider the following issuesEXCEPT .A. financial problemsB. technical problemsC. legal problemsD. privacy problemsEWe find that bright children are rarely held back by mixed ability teaching. On the contrary, both their knowledge and experience are enriched. We feel that there are many disadvantages in streaming(把……按能力分班) pupils. It does not take into account the fact that children develop at different rates. It can have a bad effect on both the bright and the not-so-bright child. After all,it can be quite discouraging to be at the bottom of the top grade!Besides, it is rather unreal to grade pupils just according to their intellectual(智力旳) ability. This is only one aspect of their total personality. We are concerned to develop the abilities of all our pupils to the full, not just their academic ability. We also value personal qualities and social skills, and we find that mixed-ability teaching contributes to all these aspects of learning.In our classrooms, we work in various ways. The pupils often work in groups: this gives them the opportunity to learn to co-operate, to share, and to develop leadership skills. They also learn how to deal with personal problems as well as learning how to think, to make decisions, to analyze and evaluate, and to communicate effectively in order to have the ability to become leaders. The pupils learn from each other aswell as from the teacher.Sometimes the pupils work in pairs;sometimes they work on individual (个人旳) tasks , and they can do this at their own speed. They also have some formal class teaching when this is suitable. We encourage our pupils to use the library, and we teach them the skills they need in order to do this efficiently. An advanced pupil can do advanced work:it does not matter what age the child is. We expect our pupils to do their best, not their least, and we give them every encouragement to attain this goal.72. We can know from the passage that the author’ s attitude towards “mixed-ability teaching〞is______.A. approvingB. disapprovingC. questioningD. inactive73. The underlined words “held back〞in Paragraph 1 probably means “______〞.A. drawn to their studiesB. forced to study in the lower classesC. made to remain in the same classesD. prevented from advancing74. Which of the following is NOT MENTIONED in the third paragraphA. Pupils also learn to develop their reasoning abilities.B. Pupils also learn how to participate in teaching activitiesC. Group work gives pupils the chance to learn to work together with others.D. Group work supply pupils with the chance to learn to be good organizers.75. The author’s purpose in writing this passage is to ______.A. offer advice on the proper use of the libraryB. recommend pair work and group work for classroom activitiesC. argue for teaching bright and not-so-bright pupils in the same classD. tell us the importance of proper formal classroom teaching参考答案56-59 CBCB 60-63 CA A C 64-67 CCDB 68-71 CDBA 72-75 ADBC。

练习4议论文A〔2021威海二模〕It's Nice to be Home1 I have been fortunate enough to make trips to many countries.They were wonderful adventures filled with new sights and experiences.And my wife and I have another trip in the planning stages.We're home now and have settled back into our daily routine of life. 2 I find that when I am at home, particularly for a while when we have just returned from a trip , I feel very comfortable.Perhaps it is because everything around me is familiar and the daily routine is so much the same I can move through it almost without thinking. 3 Perhaps it is because we can have meals at home instead of always being in restaurants , although it's nice to let someone else do the cooking , and because I can sleep in my own bed.There are times I think it would be nice to simply stop travelling and stay home and I'm sure I would be very comfortable if that were to happen. 4Yet I guess I am probably a restless soul because I know that after I have been home for a while I will start to think about other places we might go and other things we want to see.We will travel again and we feel fortunate to be able to do so. 5 Still , one of the best things about travelling for me is coming home.I'm very comfortable here at home even if it is difficult to say exactly why.A . I like to travel very much.B. I enjoy local food while travelling.C. I like being home , for whatever reason.D. Perhaps it is because our friends are here.E. And I enjoy my daily life at home so much.F. We want to see as much of the world as we can.G. It's lucky that my wife and I both love travelling.本文是一篇议论文.作者很喜欢旅游,但每次旅游回到家都感到很舒服,或许由于周围的一切很熟悉,或许由于可以在家吃饭,或许由于可以睡在自己的床上.1. A [根据本段内容并结合I' have been fortunate enough to make trips to many countries.〞和And my wife and I have another trip in the planning stages.〞可知作者很喜欢旅游. ]2. E [根据第二段首句We're home now and have settled back into our daily routine of life. 〞中的our daily routine of life 可知E 项正确.]3. D [上句提到Perhaps it is because everything around me is familiar and the daily routine is so much the same I can move through it almost without thinking. 〞下句提至U Perhaps it is because we can have meals at home instead of always being in restaurants.“因止匕过渡句中也应出现关键词perhaps it is because, 故D 项正确.]4. C [通过第二段的表达并结合第三段首句Yet I guess I am probably a restless soul because I know that after I have been home for a while〞中的关键词have been home 可知作者很喜欢在家.]5. F [根据上两句I will start to think about other places we might go and other things we want to see.We will travel again and we feel fortunate to be able to do so.〞可知作者想尽可能多地游览世界各地.]B〔2021西安市质量检测〕Each year, many animal species die out.They join the countless species that have gone extinct〔灭绝的〕over the course of the earth's history and many people believe they disappear forever. 6 Now some scientists are focusing on the ability to bring back extinct species.This doesn't mean the plot of Jurassic Park is going to become a reality.The researchers need DNA to clone a species.7 Dinosaurs have been gone too long for any of their DNA to remain in fossils〔化石〕.But there's a very real chance that we will be able to bring back more recently extinct species.8 In 2003 , a team of Spanish and French scientists recreated the Pyrenean ibex, which had gone extinct three years' earlier.The new animal didn't survive long , but scientific advances could improve the success rate.In January, Australian scientists announced that they were on their way to bringing back the gastric brooding frog.That we can bring species back doesn't mean that we should do that.There may be much benefit of reviving〔使复生〕a species, but there's no way to know how it will turn out. 9 Or might it crowd out existing species? Environmentalists worry that our ability to bring species back might cut down support for the hard work of traditional conservation.10 If we can correct our mistake , why not use the chance to do that? As Stewart Brand , a businessman and environmentalist , recently said , “ Humans have made a huge hole in nature.We have the ability now to repair some of that damage.〞A. However , some people argue that the extinction of some animals is really our mistake.B. In addition , most people think that the extinction of some animals is really human's mistake.C. This could even include Ice Age animals like the woolly mammoth.D. However, you might need to redefine〔重新定义〕“fore ver.〞E. For example, would a passenger pigeon fit into its old habitat〔栖息地〕?F. This could even be true to dinosaurs that have been extinct long ago.G. DNA is the chemical that carries the structure of a living thing.本文是一篇议论文,主要讲述了我们可以用克隆手段来使灭绝的动物重新回到世界上但这并不意味着我们应该那样去做.6. D [空格前指出“许多人认为一些动物物种会永远消失〞;第二段首句指出“现在一些科学家正致力于恢复这些灭绝物种的研究〞;由此可知,口项“然而,你也许需要重新定义‘永远’这个词的含义〞与上文中的“forever〞照应,且引出下文内容,符合语境.应选D.]7. G [根据上文可知,研究人员需要DNA来克隆一个物种;根据下文可知,恐龙已经消失太久了,它们的DNA存在于它们的化石当中;由此可知 ,此处应是对DNA进行介绍,G 项“DNA是一种携带了生物结构的化学物质〞承上启下,符合语境.应选Go ]8. C [根据上文可知,我们真的有时机能够恢复更接近现代的灭绝物种;根据下文可知 , 空格后主要讲述的是研究例证;由此可知,C项“这甚至包括冰川时期的动物如猛吗象〞承接上文,下文的例子那么对其进行了进一步论证,符合语境.应选Co ]9. E [根据空格后的Or〞表并列可知,此处与下文应是对称的一般疑问句. E项“例如, 旅鸽能够适应之前的栖息地吗〞与下文衔接密切,符合语境.应选E.]10. A [根据第四段内容可知,恢复物种也许会有很多好处 ,但“我们〞无法知道结果如何.环保人士担忧恢复物种的水平也许会对传统的保护物种的艰辛工作产生不良影响;空格后句意:如果“我们〞能纠正自己的错误,为什么不利用这次时机呢?由此可知,上下文之间构成转折关系. A项中的However...our mistake.〞照应下文,符合语境.应选A.]C〔2021成都二珍〕Some people describe American society as a salad bowl while others think of it as a melting pot.In a bowl of salad, all the ingredients are mixed together. 11 Together, however, the ingredients make up a unity.All the ingredients of a salad contribute to the finished product.They may be covered with the same dressing〔调味酱〕,but the green vegetables , tomatoes and cooked corn can all be seen for what they are.From this point of view , America is very much like a salad bowl where individual ethnic groups mix together, yet maintain their cultural uniqueness.People may work together during the day at similar jobs and in the same companies , but at night they may return to their ethnic groups where their own individual culture directs their way of life. 12 Each ethnic group has its own special customs, language, food and traditions to protect and defend.This idea of the salad bowl is referred to as cultural diversity ; that is, American society is a collection of various cultures living together in harmony within one country.13 Here, society is like one large pot of soup.All cultural aspects are mixed together , sacrificingtheir original identity and keeping a bit of what they were to become a new reality.The longer the soup is cooked, the better the taste and the more likely it will be for the mixture to dissolve.In this sense , America can surely be seen as a melting pot where people from all over the world come to live and work together forming one nation.There are dozens of shared symbols. 14 In such aculture , symbols like the flag and the nation's official song serve to break down the walls which separate ethnic groups.Whether a salad bowl or a melting pot , America can be best described as a mixture of both. 15A . Both are correct depending on one's point of view.B. They never lose their shapes, colors or tastes.C. This is why there is so much diversity within America.D. In other words , America is a nation where there is unity in diversity.E. Thus, one needs to abandon one's culture to be considered “American".F. They serve to develop the various ethnic groups to create a new American culture.G. The other theory , which is also used to describe American society , is the melting pot.本文是一篇议论文,主要谈论了美国就像一个沙拉碗或熔炉,来自世界各地的人们构成了美国多元化的社会.11. B [根据下文中的the ingredients make up a unity 〞和can all be seen for what they are〞可推测出,此段主要论述虽然美国社会就像一碗沙拉,所有的原料都混合在一起,但各种原料却没有因此失去自己的特色,即我们能看到不同种类的文化组成了现在的美国社会.所以 B 项符合上下文语境.应选B.]12. C [根据下文中的Each ethnic group has its own special...and defend.〞可知,每个民族都有自己要保护和保卫的特殊的文化、语言、食物和传统.由此可推断出,此处解释了美国多元文化存在的原因. C项符合上下文语境.应选Co ]13. G [根据第一段中的两种观点 a salad bowl〞和a melting pot〞及空格后的3ne large potof soup〞可知,本段要介绍另外一种观点. G项说法和第一段中的第二种观点一致.应选Go ]14. F [根据下文中的"In such a culture , symbols like...serve to...groups.〞可知,共同拥有的符号有助于消除不同民族之间的隔膜,创造出一种新文化.F项符合上下文语境,且They〞指代上文中的symbols〞.应选F.]15. D [该段是对全文内容的总结.即美国是一个具有多样性和统一性的国家. D项符合语境,是对前面一句内容的另一种表述.应选D.]D〔2021长春^^测〕Happiness is the only true measure of personal success.Making other people happy is the highest expression of success. 16 With that in mind , here are some suggestions that will immediately increasethe amount of happiness in your life :17If there's any big truth about life , it's that it usually lives up to your expectations.Therefore , when you rise from bed , make your first thought : " Somethingwonderful is going to happen today. Guess what? You're probably right.Take time to plan and prioritize〔优先处理〕.The most common source of stress is the thought that you've got too much work to do.Rather than worry about it , pick one thing that will move you closer to your highest goal and purpose in life.Then do that first.Eat high quality food slowly.18 Even so, at least once a day try to eat something really delicious , like a small chunk of fine cheese or an imported chocolate.Taste it, focus on it and enjoy it.Let go of your results.The big enemy of happiness is worry , which comes from focusing on events that are outside your control.Once you've taken action , there's usually nothing more you can do. 19End each day with gratitude.Just before you go to bed , write down at least one wonderful thing that happened.It might be something as small as making a child laugh or something as huge as a million dollar deal. 20A. Start each day with expectations.B. Give a gift to everyone you meet.C. Think about the thing that makes your head hurt.D. It's impossible to make others happy if you're not happy.E. Whatever it is , be grateful for that day because it will never come again.F. Sometimes we can't avoid eating something quickly and running.G. Focus on the job at hand rather than some fantasy that might happen.本文是一篇议论文,讲述了我们应该如何来增加我们生活中的幸福感.16. D [根据前文Making other people happy is the highest expression of success.和后文With that in mind...in your life 〞可知这里与D项“自己不开心时想要使别人开心 ,那是不可能的事情〞语境相符.]17.

(2019·全国I卷·D)During the rosy years of elementary school (小学), I enjoyed sharing my dolls and jokes, which allowed me to keep my high social status. I was the queen of the playground. Then came my tweens and teens, and mean girls and cool kids. They rose in the ranks not by being friendly but by smoking cigarettes, breaking rules and playing jokes on others, among whom I soon found myself.Popularity is a well-explored subject in social psychology. Mitch Prinstein, a professor of clinical psychology sorts the popular into two categories: the likable and the status seekers. The likables’plays-well-with-others qualities strengthen schoolyard friendships, jump-start interpersonal skills and, when tapped early, are employed ever after in life and work. Then there’s the kind of popularity that appears in adolescence: status born of power and even dishonorable behavior.Enviable as the cool kids may have seemed, Dr. Prinstein’s studies show unpleasant consequences. Those who were highest in status in high school, as well as those least liked in elementary school, are “most likely to engage (从事) in dangerous and risky behavior.”In one study, Dr. Prinstein examined the two types of popularity in 235 adolescents, scoring the least liked, the most liked and the highest in status based on student surveys (调查研究). “We found that the least well-liked teens had become more aggressive over time toward their classmates. But so had those who were high in status. It clearly showed that while likability can lead to healthy adjustment, high status has just the opposite effect on us.”Dr. Prinstein has also found that the qualities that made the neighbors want you on a play date—sharing, kindness, openness—carry over to later years and make you better able to relate and connect with others.In analyzing his and other research, Dr. Prinstein came to another conclusion: Not only is likability related to positive life outcomes, but it is also responsible for those outcomes, too. “Being liked creates opportunities for learning and for new kinds of life experiences that help somebody gain an advantage,” he said.I.Discuss the question: Is popularity good or bad for You?

2019高三英语二轮复习板块二语篇理解题专题一阅读理解 7牢记议论文的读文、审题策略A(2017·合肥一中、芜湖一中等六校联考)School children are using mobile phone applications to do their homework,which seem to be increasing during summer vacations.But instead of blaming students for their behavior,we should say no to too much homework.This is important because by using mobile phone applications todo their homework,students don't add much to their knowledge,says an article in Guangzhou-based Yangcheng Evening News.Excerpts (摘录):Using mobile phone applications to do homework is no different from copying from someone else's work.This is the opinion of a vast majority of teachers.Students who seek cell phone apps help to do their homework will pay_dearly during major exams when they cannot seek the help of such applications,the teachers say.The heavy load of homework Chinese students are burdened with,said to be the heaviest in the world,has led to the popularity of these applications.Senior high school students in China rarely go to bed before 11 p.m.A reportin Shanghai published in 2013 showed that students in the city on average spend 28.2 hours in class every week,the 9th highest among 65 countries and regions surveyed.Also,they spend an average of 13.8 hours a week doing homework,most in the world.There is no association between the amount of homework one does and the amount of knowledge one gathers.In fact,a research by Australian experts shows that theresult is exactly the opposite: the more hours students spend doing homework,the less effective they will be in gaining knowledge.The United States is one of the countries where students do little homework,but that has not damaged the country's academic status in the world.So,it's time Chinese schools understood this fact and freed students of theunnecessary burden of homework.语篇解读:本文是一篇议论文,介绍了由于学生作业太多,学习负担太重而开始使用手机应用程序完成作业的现象,由此号召学校认真对待这种现象,减轻学生的课业负担。

[答案] AB(2017·海淀区高三年级第一学期期末)Conventional wisdom is a major barrier to innovation that threatens the survival of companies everywhere.It's based on theassumption that old ideas will always work,so they shouldn't be challenged.Whilethis may be a valid assumption in situations that don't change,it's unlikely tohold true in a changing situation.In today's rapid changing global environment,old methods often don't work,and stubbornly using them can lead to major problems.Most people seem to agree with conventional wisdom because it gives one a false sense of security.If everyone else believes it,then it must be true.Individuals who use conventional wisdom are certain that they are right,and being right is good.They want to continue using old ideasrather than take risks with changes that might not work.In 1977,Ken Olsen,co -founder and CEO of Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC),stated “There is no reason for any individual to have a computer in his home.” Despite being a dominant leader in the computer industry,DEC no longer exists.People seem to forget that since innovation is a change,there can be no innovation without change.Unfortunately,conventional wisdom prevents leaders,followers and companies from changing and therefore innovating.If companies don'tinnovate,but their competitors do,the future is likely to be problematic.Breaking from conventional wisdom has led to many of the most innovative companies andproducts in history across many industries,so it has a powerful effect on business success.Ted Turner (founder of CNN) knew little,if anything,about the news business,but he knew it was inconvenient to watch news only at the dinner hour,as was common before CNN.Turner's solution was to create a cable channel dedicated to news 24 hours a day.The news establishment reflected conventional wisdom at the time,and predicted his idea would fail because no one wanted to watch the news all day.However,it_doesn't_take_a_rocket_scientist_to_understand_that_viewers_don't_have_to_watch_the_news_all_day_for_the_CNN_to_work. Viewers just have to watch when they want to get information.Due to conventional thinking,the critics failed to recognizethe opportunity that was clear to Ted.They assumed that only what was familiar tothem could work in the future.Conventional wisdom prevents creativity,flexibility and risk-taking,so unconventional leaders enthusiastically break from it.To survive,thrive and maintain competitive advantage,companies must be flexible when reacting to change.语篇解读:本文讲述的是传统思想阻碍了经济的发展以及企业打破传统思想的必要性。
