高考复习专题——任务型阅读精练详解P a s s a g e1任务型阅读(共10小题,每小题1分;满分10分)请认真阅读下面短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填上一个最恰当的单词。
Growing vegetables for funFarmers might think the idea of growing food for fun sounds strange. But there are some people who do it all the time.They grow some vegetables because their natural color or shape is pleasing to see. They grow others because scientists have developed new colors or different sizes for traditional vegetables.One example is the bell pepper(胡椒). Seed companies sell seeds for several different kinds of bell peppers. One pepper is a weak yellow color when it begins to grow. Then its color changes to white. As it grows, it changes color two more times—to orange, then red.Another unusual plant is known as the yard-long bean or snake bean. It grows up to one meter in length. It is an important part of the food supply in areas of Asia. American farmers like it because it is different, yet tastes very much like the green beans they traditionally grow. Each bean has from ten to twenty seeds. The outside or pod can be eaten. Some of the very long beans are green outside but have black –and –white or red seeds.Gourds (葫芦) are plants that people like to grow because of the many different shapes. They also have many uses. Some round gourds are dried, painted and made into containers. Others have long necks and big bodies. These are dried, cut and made into containers to pour drinking water.Another kind of gourd is used to make sponges(海绵). When it is fully grown, it is removed from the vine and permitted to dry for a few weeks. Then it is placed in water for a few hours. The outer shell is then removed. The gourd is placed in the sun to dry. When it is fully dry, it is cut into pieces for sponges. They have a rough surface. They can be used to clean away dead skin cells, which makes them a popular skin-product.1. shapes2.

一、高中英语任务型阅读1.任务型阅读Green is not always referring to the color. In some cases, it is the term used for being environmentally friendly. If you've been looking to replace your furniture, consider going green because environmentally friendly furniture offers many benefits. Here are a few tips to get you started on your hunt for the perfect eco-friendly furniture.First, environmentally friendly furniture isn't harmful to your health. Also its manufacturing process doesn't cause damage to the environment in any way. Besides, by purchasing eco-friendly products, you prevent deforestation and global warming to some extent in your own way. You do your part in protecting the environment. Environmentally friendly furniture is cost-effective as well.The materials that are used in furniture are what make them green. Materials can be good for the environment either because they are materials that are considered renewable resources or they are all natural. A lack of chemicals and toxins (毒素) in green furniture also means it is a better choice for the environment. It may be hard to imagine that a sofa or a table could actually be a green product but they really can be depending on what they're made of.There are a lot of renewable sources that manufacturers could use when building the furniture, so you should be keeping an eye out for them. Bamboo can be an excellent replacement for wood and can also replace plastics and metals in some furnishing. Cotton is a sofa fabric that is safe for the environment and it can be replenished (补充) often. Hemp is also a renewable source that can be used for fabric and twine.Recycled materials also can be made into green furniture. Metals can be recovered and remade into new things such as frames and foundations for sofas. Recycled plastic can also be made into furniture such as tables and chairs. Touching up old furniture instead of buying new items is very cheap way to be green. Yard sales and second-hand stores sell furniture too and buying the used means new things won't be made, so no more damage has to happen to the earth.Therefore, when you want to hunt for the perfect environmentally friendly furniture, you should try to know the type of materials which are used in building the furniture.reused/recycled/used;like;second-hand/used/old;better/necessary/important/vital/essential【解析】【分析】如果你想换家俱,可以考虑选择绿色环保家俱,本文主要介绍了环保家俱的优势以及这种家俱材料的选择等有关事宜。

一、高中英语任务型阅读1.任务型阅读Nobody likes to think they are “that guy” at work.________. So, what are some of the rudest things that people do at work — and why shouldn't you do them?Behaving in an unacceptable wayThe most common form of this is eating smelly foods at lunchtime. Other things alike include body smell and its opposite, the wearing of strong perfume, messy desks, or bad breath.________.Checking email on your phone when you're talking to other peopleA recent survey shows that 49 percent of people said their bosses checked their phones while talking with them.________. If you've ever wondered why your team members are unmotivated, this may be why. In fact, when you're talking to someone at work, you should reject any non-important calls.________Do you like the sound of your own voice? Great. Perhaps it's time you learned to like the sound of other people's voices too. If you interrupt others when they speak, they'll dislike you and discount whatever you're saying. And if you routinely take up three quarters of the meeting with your monologues(独角戏), people will turn off and, quite rightly, start checking email on their phones. However, if you listen to what others say and show interest by asking intelligent questions, they'll love you and be likely to give you their support when you speak.Showing off how much you earn________. If you show off your income to someone and then discover you get less than them, you'll look like a fool. If you earn more, they'll feel tired of you. So keep them guessing and hide your earning power in quiet ways — like always paying for the team coffees.A. Talking all the timeB. Being a good listenerC. Team-working can never be ignoredD. All these things will become part of your personal brandE. It's better to be modest when you talk about your incomesF. Bad behavior at work is common — and often we do it without thinkingG.

It can make us clever in playing computer games. Also when we send e-mails to our friends, they can get them right away. It can help us keep in touch with people from all over the world.But some students spend too much time in playing computer games and some stay in the Net bars all day and all night. It takes them too much time to chat online so don’t study well any more. I think we mustn’t get online when it is time for us to study. We can do it in summer or winter holidays. I think we should get online with our teachers or parents.At the same time, if we have lots of free time, we can do some activities after school. We usually have activities from 4:50 to 5:50 in the afternoon. We can play basketball or football. We also have some interestgroups in school, such as drawing, singing and dancing. We can go to the English corner on Monday afternoon. I hope we can spend more time on our subjects or on such activities that we can learn a lot from and less time on the Internet.That’s all!

First, reading books is fun. You can always keep pleased if you like reading. This is especially useful when the weather is bad. It is a relaxing hobby too. You can really become lost in a book.Next, you can read a book anywhere: in a car, in a waiting-room, on a plane, in bed—even in the bath. All you need is a book! Reading is a convenient (方便的) hobby as it is easy to stop and then start again.Another good reason for reading books is that it is useful. If you read as a hobby you will get better and better at it.

Many school subjects depend on good reading and, as you read, you learn more and more.Some people say that reading is out of date. This is not true. You have to be able to read on the Internet. The better you read, the better your computer skills will be. Reading is hardly out of date!Good readers are most likely to be good writers, too.

Now about 1,100 companies(公司) are asked to take children into the great outdoors without their parents.The reason why people like “Survival Holidays” is that they think being close to nature is good for children. Many children in big cities spend all time watching TV and playing computer games. “Survival Holidays” gives them an important change.Is “Survival Holidays” a wonderful idea? Maybe it is. Children need more free time to play. They need to be left on their own, without adults disturbing (打扰) them. Parents care too much about their children. They like to see the children being busy with activities that are controlled (支配) by adults, but children don’t know what to do when they are in danger. Even something like crossing a small river seems to be a hard challenge (挑战). Children are not comfortable with danger. Even small danger like getting their feet wet or falling down seems very terribleto them.Many people think the survival activities are good for children. Even years later, they will still remember what they have learned. Some have learned to stay calm in different times. Some have learned how to keep safe. Others have learned how to work in a team. All these skills will help them a lot in their lives.【答案】1.children 2.without 3.good 4.important 5.do6.takes7. alone8.danger9.Holidays 10. learn五任务型阅读Is there a wetland around your city?

The wetland is 241.55-square-kilometres and an important resting area for migratory birds moving from one hemisphere to another.A report says that 116 kinds of birds live in the reserve. Now the wetland is limiting the number of visitors to protect its wildlife.Because of tourism and fishing, the number of the birds there is getting smaller and smaller. Now only people who study birds can get into the wetland. No other visitors can travel through the wetlands. They can onlytake a look from a man-made watching corridor outside the wetland. As you know, too many people sometimes mean a disaster to wildlife.Usually the number of birds peaks between September and April. The wetland is only open to scientists who study and protect birds during these months.The government will start a 20-hectare study center at the end of next year. It will help a lot to protect the wetland.The government says they are trying to prevent people from disturbing the birds, and at the same time preventing the birds from eating the farmers’ crops.【答案】1.Area 2.North-east 3.Climate 4. resting 5. 1166.smaller7.Causes 8 .fishing 9. scientists 10.man-made六任务型阅读。

这一部分可能是一个词或短语,也可能是一个句子或相关的若干句子,但句式、用词和表达方式不同。
做这类题一般采用寻读法,即先读题,然后带着问题快速阅读短文,找出与问题有关的词语或句子,再对相关部分进行分析对比,找出答案。
3.信息归纳题该题要求考生能在短文中找到题目所要求的事实性细节,并能适当进行归纳表达。
在找到相关细节信息之后,有时可照搬原文信息轻松作答,有时还要对事实性信息进行适当的整理。
解答信息归纳表达题时,一方面要找到相应的原文信息,另一方面要使用词语的恰当词性。
很多学生在考试时就没有注意到词性的要求。
4.开放问答题此题是要求考生根据短文中所出现的话题,发表你个人的观点和见解。
它没有标准答案,需要考生根据自己的理解和想象答题。
开放性的问题使考生跳出了一定的限制范围,有利于体现创造性思维。
考生在平时要多思考生活,关注社会和国内外问题,中考时方可写出具有自己个性、言简意赅且合情合理的句子。

Should doctors ever lie to benefit their patients to speed recovery or to cover the coming of death? In medicine as in law, government, and other lines of work, the requirements of honesty often seem dwarfed by greater needs; the need to protect patients from brutal news, to uphold a promise of secrecy or to advance the public interest.What should doctors say, for example, to a 46-year-old man coming in for a routine physical checkup just before going on vacation with his family who, though he feels in perfect health, is found to have a form of cancer that will cause him to die within six months? Is it best to tell him the truth? If he asks, should doctors reject that he is ill, or minimize the gravity of the illness? Should they at least hide the truth until after the family vacation?Doctors face such choices often. At times, they see important reasons to lie for the patients’own sake; in their eyes, such lies differ sharply from self-serving ones.Studies show that most doctors sincerely believe that the seriously ill patients do not want to know the truth about their condition, and that informing them of risks destroys their hope, so that they may recover more slowly, or deteriorate faster, perhaps even commit suicide.But other studies show that, contrary to the belief of many physicians, a great majority of patients do want to be told the truth, even about serious illness, and feel cheated when they learn that they have been misled. We are also learning that truthful information, humanely conveyed, helps patients cope with illness; help them tolerate pain better with less medicine, and even recover faster after surgery.There is an urgent need to debate this issue openly. Not only in medicine, but in other professions as well, practitioners may find themselves repeatedly in difficulty where serious consequences seem avoidable only through deception. Yet the public has every reason to know the professional deception, for such practices are peculiarly likely to become deeply rooted, tospread, and to trust. Neither in medicine, nor in law, government, or the social sciences can there be comfort in the old saying, “What you don’t know can’t hurt you.”Title: 1 Or NotDifferent 2 ·Most doctors are in 3 of lying for the patients’ own sake.·A great majority of patients 4 on being told the truth.Reasons for 5 lying to patients ·Informing patients of the truth about their condition destroys their hope, 6 to recovering more slowly, or deteriorating faster, perhaps even 7 themselves.Reasons 8 lying to patients ·The truthful information helps patients to 9 their illness, help them tolerate pain better with less medicine, and even recover faster after surgery.·Most patients feel 10 when they learn that they have been misled.1.

Parents can help their seventh and eighth grade students stand out in and out of their English classroom by introducing them to newspapers. Newspapers not only offer information on current events, but they can also be used to test your child's knowledge of grammar, vocabulary, and more.Who, What, Where, When, Why, and HowHave your child read the first couple of paragraphs of a news story. Ask them to write down all of the important facts, such as who, what, where, when, why and how. This helps parents to see if their children comprehend the basic facts and information they read.GrammarParents can monitor a child's understanding of grammatical parts of speech (词性) without a grammar textbook. Ask your child to read a paragraph in an article and then list a specific number of nouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs, pronouns, prepositions and the like, which serves more of a test of their grammatical knowledge. Encourage them to list each of these parts of speech in a paragraph. Then, reread the paragraph to see if they missed anything.PersuasionAsk your child to select an advertisement from the newspaper. Have them investigate how specific words or phrases influence their feelings about a particular product. Then, encourage them to create an advertisement of their own for an item they do not like. Tell them not to show their true feelings and try to make people want to buy this unwanted item. After that, ask them to list the persuasive techniques used in their ad.Facts vs OpinionsSelect an editorial for your middle schooler to read. Have your child divide a piece of paper into two columns, one marked fact, and the other marked opinion. Have your student decide which column it fits under. This will help your child better understand facts versus opinions. Another related exercise is responding to an editorial. Encourage your child to write letters to the editor or responses to editorials or other articles. Before your child sends his or her letter, check the opinion section to see what requirements there are.Headlines and Synonyms (同义词)Ask your middle schooler to rewrite a couple of headlines using the synonyms of the original words. Compare the headlines. Do the original versions or the rewrites sound better? This is agreat exercise to help students learn synonyms and expand their vocabulary.If you find your seventh or eighth grade child is struggling with these newspaper activities, it may be an indicator that they have fallen behind in their reading skills. These activities were designed with a seventh or eighth grader in mind; therefore, while they are educational, they should be more of reinforcement (增强) instead of a major reading challenge.Outline Supporting detailsAn approach to learning1 students in seventh and eighth grades to newspapers can be helpful in learning English.Newspaper 2 ●Ask students to read the first paragraphs of a news story and writedown the important and 3 facts to see if they can understand them.●Have students read an article and list different parts of speech toimprove their understanding of 4 .●Select an ad and ask students to find the persuasive expressions 5in it, and then create their own ad for a product they dislike.●Select an editorial and have students 6 between facts andopinions.
