选修六Module 2“阅读＋七选五＋完形”组合练——练题型(限时：35分钟)Ⅰ.阅读理解(2022·广州综合测试二)Is it possible that the sinking of the Titanic w as caused by a ghost? A plot of the story belo w is true ... but did it really happen quite like this?Our story begins not in the icy cold waters of the North Atlantic, but rather thousands of miles away in Egypt. It is here, perhaps, that we can find the start of the mystery (谜) of the Titanic, in the year 1910, in the great city of Cairo.One day, a famous professor of Egyptian history called Douglas Murray was staying in Cairo, when he was contacted by an American adventurer.The American had something unusual to offer Murray, something that was certain to thrill him: a beautiful ancient Egyptian mummy case, containing the mummy of an Egyptian queen. It was over 3,000 years old, but in beautiful condition — gold, with bright paintings on it. Murray was delighted with both the object and the asking-price. He gave the man a cheque immediately.The cheque was never cashed. That evening the American adventurer died. For his part, Murray arranged to have the treasure sent back to Britain. However, it was not long before he learnt more about the beautiful mummy case: On the walls of the tomb in which it had been discovered, there were messages which warned of terrible consequences to anyone who broke into the tomb. Murray was disbelieving of these warnings until a few days later, when a gun he was holding exploded in his hand, shattering his arm. The arm had to be cut off.After the accident, Murray decided to return to his homeland. On the return journey, two of his companions died mysteriously, and two servants who had handled the mummy also passed away. Thenow-terrified Murray decided he would get rid of the cursed case as soon as he arrived in London. A lady he knew named Janet Jones said she would like it, so he gave it to her. Shortly afterwards, Jones' mother died, and she herself caught a strange disease. She tried returning the mummy, but naturally Murray refused it. In the end, it was presented to the British Museum.Even in the museum, the mummy apparently continued to cause strange events. A museum photographer died shortly after taking pictures of the new exhibit, and a manager also died for no apparent reason. In the end, the British Museum decided to get rid of the mummy too. They sold it to a collector in New York.At the start of April 1912, arrangements for the transfer were complete, and the mummy began the journey to its new home. But the New Yorker never received the mummy or its case. For when the Titanic sank, one of the objects in its strong-room was the mummy case. Or so they say.语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文。

2021年高考英语大一轮复习 Unit 2 Poems课时作业新人教版选修6Ⅰ. 阅读理解AMention the terms Italian Culture and Renaissance Art and one is immediately reminded of the mysterious smile of Leonardo da Vinci’s Mona Lisa.The renaissance period had a deep effect on European culture development. Having its beginnings in Italy, by the 16th century, it had spread to the rest of Europe. Its influence was felt in different fields such as philosophy, literature, religion, science, politics, and, of course, art. The scholars of the renaissance period applied the humanist method in every field of study, and wanted human emotion and realism in art.Renaissance scholars studied the ancient Latin and Greek texts, searching the monastic(修道院的)libraries of Europe for works of ancient times that had bee obscure, in their hunt for improving and perfecting their worldly knowledge. This was pletely different from the religion that Christianity(基督教)stressed. However, that does not mean that they refused Christianity. In fact, much of the greatest works of the renaissance period was devoted to it, with the church supporting a lot of the works of renaissance art. However, there were slight changes in the manner in which the scholars began to treat religion, which affected the cultural life of the society, which in turn influenced the artists of that period and therefore was reflected intheir art.In Raphael’s School of Athens, for example, some well-known people were described as classical scholars, with Leonardo da Vinci being given as much importance as Plato in his time. Giotto di Bondone, 1267—1337, a Florentine, who is regarded as the greatest Italian painter just earlier than the renaissance period, is thought to be the first artist who treated a painting as a window into space.However, it was only after the writings of Filippo Brunelleschi, 1377—1446, who is considered the first great builder of the Italian Renaissance, that perspective was formally accepted as an artistic technique.【文章大意】文章介绍了文艺复兴的发源地意大利在当时的背景下的文化特色和相关艺术家在这个时期的作用。

题型组合课时练选修6 Unit 2Ⅰ.阅读理解(2021·重庆适应性测试)Robert Frost ( 1874－1963 ) was the statesman of American letters in the twentieth century，a rare national poet who was read and respected by both university professors and everyday citizens.In his life，Frost won four Pulitzer Prizes for his works－more than any other poet in American history.His most famous poems include “The Road Not Taken〞“Fire and Ice〞and “Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening〞．Though he is widely read，Frost is also one of the most misunderstood writers in the United States for the complexity of his poems.Though born in California，Frost was brought up in New England，where he is inseparably linked.After dropping out of Dartmouth College to seek his literary dream，he remained upset for years，producing collections of works but failing，Frost left the United States in 1912 to see whether his work might be better received in London.It was，and in 1913 his first full collection was published in Great Britain.Fellow American poet Amy Lowell adored Frost's work and brought it back to the United States，publicizing it insistently.Soon afterwards Frost's collections became bestsellers，and he become a famous figure.From then on，Frost was on his way to the lifelong respect and recognition for his achievements in poetry.In 1961，he was invited to read a poem for the presidential inauguration (总统就职典礼) of John F．Kennedy.He recited his poem，“The Gift Outright〞from memory at the ceremony.This was perhaps his last poetry reading in front of a wide national audience before his death in 1963.More importantly，Frost became the first poet to read a poem at a presidential inauguration.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。
