2015高考英语-湖北省(含答案)

专题06 阅读理解（2019-2020）（1）Safety is very important. In schools,however, accidents often happen，so there must be people at school who know how to do first aid.First aid is help that you give to someone who has suddenly fallen ill or who has had an accident. You don’t have to be a doctor or a nurse. Anyone can be a first aider(that’s someone who knows first aid), but in most schools,the only first aiders are teachers. There are a lot more children than teachers in any school, so why not teach the children first aid?That’s exactly what we’ve done in my own school. The school’s team of first aiders now has 32 members, some as young as 11, who know what to do when someone is in danger. Every year, nurses from a local hospital teach our children the necessary skills to save lives. Children are taught what to do, for example, if a friend of theirs has a headache. They also know what to do if someone is in real danger.Recently, two students from my school were able to use their new skills. 13-year-old Mike and his friend Joe were playing together when Joe got a piece of apple in his throat that wouldn’t move. Although his friend was in great danger. Mike was not frightened. With one move, he took the apple out and saved Joe’s life.11-year-old Kim’s story is even more amazing. Her mum suffers from a heart problem. One evening, her mum suddenly fell to the ground. Kim knew exactly what to do. She called an ambulance(救护车）and took care of her mum until help arrived.With the necessary first-aid knowledge, the students did a really good job.1.What may the writer probably be?A.A driver.B. A policemanC. A teacherD. A sportsman2.What should a first aider do when someone has had an accident?A.Take him to do sport.B.Expect the doctors to come.C.Ask the teachers to deal with it.D.Give him necessary help at once.3.Why do nurses from a local hospital go to the writer’s school every year?A.To teach the children skills to save lives.B.To clean and cover cuts for patients.C.To take care of the sick children.D.To build a team of first aiders.4.Who saved Joe when he was in great danger?A.KimB. MikeC. A doctorD. A nurse5.What did Kim do first to save her mum?A.She tried to make her mum comfortable.B.She called an ambulance for her mum.C.She sent her mum to hospital.D.She helped her mum sit up.（2）Jane needed to earn some money. She had a brother named Steve. His 10-year-old birthday was just two weeks away.Steve's basketball was old, and Jane wanted to buy him a new one. She had some money,but not enough to buy a basketball.This was a big problem, but Jane knew she could solve it. She decided to see if her neighbors had any odd jobs( 零工)she could do for them.

As she was tired at night, she slept like a bear in the winter.Jane continued to work hard. For the next two weeks, everyday when she got home, she asked her neighbors if they had any odd jobs for her to do.After receiving the last dollar she needed, Jane went to the sporting goods store. When she bought the basketball, Jane proudly paid for it with the money she earned. She could hardly wait to give it to Steve.Steve's birthday party was on Saturday.

A dirty stream, for example, often became clear after flowing through plants and along rocks where tiny creatures lived. When he got older, John started to wonder if this process could be used to clean up the messes people were making.After studying agriculture, medicine, and fisheries in college, John went back to observing nature and asking questions. Why can certain plants trap harmful bacteria (细菌)? Which kinds of fish can eat cancer-causing chemicals? With the right combination of animals and plants, he figured, maybe he could clean up waste the way nature did. He decided to build what he would later call an eco-machine.The task John set for himself was to remove harmful substances from some sludge (污泥). First, he constructed a series of clear fiberglass tanks connected to each other. Then he went around to local ponds and streams and brought back some plants and animals. He placed them in the tanks and waited. Little by little, these different kinds of life got used to one another and formed their own ecosystem. After a few weeks, John added the sludge.He was amazed at the results. The plants and animals in the eco-machine took the sludge as food and began to eat it! Within weeks it had all been digested, and all that was left was pure water.Over the years, John has taken on many big jobs. He developed a greenhouse — like facility that treated sewage (污水) from 1,600 homes in South Burlington. He also designed an eco-machine to clean canal water in Fuzhou, a city in southeast China.“Ecological design” is the name John gives to what he does. “Life on Earth is kind of a box of spare parts for the inventor,” he says. “You put organisms in new relationships and observe what’s happening. Then you let these new systems develop their own ways to self-repair.”4. What can we learn about John from the first two paragraphs?A. He was fond of traveling.B. He enjoyed being alone.C. He had an inquiring mind.D. He longed to be a doctor.5. Why did John put the sludge into the tanks?A. To feed the animals.B. To build an ecosystem.C. To protect the plants.D. To test the eco-machine.6. What is the author’s purpose in mentioning Fuzhou?A. To review John’s research plans.B. To show an ap plication of John’s idea.C. To compare John’s different jobs.D. To erase doubts about John’s invention.7. What is the basis for John’s work?A. Nature can repair itself.B. Organisms need water to survive.C. Life on Earth is diverse.D. Most tiny creatures live in groups.CThe goal of this book is to make the case for digital minimalism, including a detailed exploration of what it asks and why it works, and then to teach you how to adopt this philosophy if you decide it’s right for you.To do so, I divided the book into two parts. In part one, I describe the philosophical foundations of digital minimalism, starting with an examination of the forces that are making so many people’s digital lives increasingly intolerable, before moving on to a detailed discussion of the digital minimalism philosophy.Part one concludes by introducing my suggested method for adopting this philosophy: the digital declutter. This process requires you to step away from optional online activities for thirty days. At the end of the thirty days, you will then add back a small number of carefully chosen online activities that you believe will provide massive benefits to the things you value.In the final chapter of part one, I’ll guide you through carrying out your own digital decl utter. In doing so, I’ll draw on an experiment I ran in 2018 in which over 1,600 people agreed to perform a digital declutter. You’ll hear these participants’ stories and learn what strategies worked well for them, and what traps they encountered that you should avoid.The second part of this book takes a closer look at some ideas that will help you cultivate (培养) a sustainable digital minimalism lifestyle. In these chapters, I examine issues such as the importance of solitude (独处) and the necessity of cultivating high-quality leisure to replace the time most now spend on mindless device use. Each chapter concludes with a collection of practices, which are designed to help you act on the big ideas of the chapter. You can view these practices as a toolbox meant to aid your efforts to build a minimalist lifestyle that words for your particular circumstances.8. What is the book aimed at?A. Teaching critical thinking skills.B. Advocating a simple digital lifestyle.C. Solving philosophical problems.D. Promoting the use of a digital device.9. What does the underlined word “declutter” in paragraph 3 mean?A. Clear-up.B. Add-on.C. Check-in.D.Take-over.10. What is presented in the final chapter of part one?A. Theoretical models.B. Statistical methods.C. Practical examples.D. Historical analyses.11. What does the author suggest readers do with the practices offered in part two?A. Use them as needed.B. Recommend them to friends.C. Evaluate their effects.D. Identify the ideas behind them.DOn March 7, 1907, the English statistician Francis Galton published a paper which illustrated what has come to be known as the “wisdom of crowds” effect. The experiment of estimation he conducted showed that in some cases, the average of a large number of independent estimates could be quite accurate.This effect capitalizes on the fact that when people make errors, those errors aren’t always the same. Some people will tend to overestimate, and some to underestimate. When enough of these errors are averaged together, they cancel each other out, resulting in a more accurate estimate. If people are similar and tend to make the same errors, then their errors won’t cancel each other out. In more technical terms, the wisdom of crowds requires that people’s estimates be indep endent. If for whatever reasons, people’s errors become correlated or dependent, the accuracy of the estimate will go down.But a new study led by Joaquin Navajas offered an interesting twist (转折) on this classic phenomenon. The key finding of the study was that when crowds were further divided into smaller groups that were allowed to have a discussion, the averages from these groups were more accurate than those from an equal number of independent individuals. For instance, the average obtained from the estimates of four discussion groups of five was significantly more accurate than the average obtained from 20 independent individuals.In a follow-up study with 100 university students, the researchers tried to get a better sense of what the group members actually did in their discussion. Did they tend to go with those most confident about their estimates? Did they follow those least willing to change their minds? This happened some of the time, but it wasn’t the dominant response. Most frequently, the groups reported that they “shared arguments and reasoned together.” Somehow, these arguments and reasoning resulted in a global reduction in error. Although the studies led by Navajas have limitations and many questions remain the potential implications for group discussion and decision-making are enormous.12. What is paragraph 2 of the text mainly about?A. The methods of estimation.B. The underlying logic of the effect.C. The causes of people’s errors.D. The design of Galton’s experiment.13. Navajas’ study found that the average accuracy could increase even if ________.A. the crowds were relatively smallB. there were occasional underestimatesC. individuals did not communicateD. estimates were not fully independent14. What did the follow-up study focus on?A. The size of the groups.B. The dominant members.C. The discussion process.D. The individual estimates.15. What is the author’s attitude toward Navajas’ studies?A. Unclear.B. Dismissive.C. Doubtful.D. Approving.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

2015年湖北省高考——作文真题与解析（满分）（精选五篇）第一篇：2015年湖北省高考——作文真题与解析(满分)2015年湖北省高考——作文真题与解析作文真题泉水地下蓄积，一旦有机会，他便骄傲地涌出地面，成为众人瞩目的喷泉，继而汇成溪流，奔向远方。

但人们对地下泉水鲜有关注。

其实，正是因为地下那些默默不语的泉水不断聚集，才有地上那一股股清泉的不断喷涌。

请根据你对材料的理解和感悟，自选一个角度，写一篇不少于800字的文章，文体自定，标题自拟。

题目分析很欣喜看到湖北卷终于出了这样一道意思简单直接的材料题目。

泉水和喷泉，互为表里，题目的第一层意思也就是“其实”这二字之后的部分。

“正是有XX那些默默不语的XX不断地XX，才有了……”这句道理岂不是耳熟能详？当然不要忘记，按照湖北历年的考试习惯，绝不会把作文出得这么简单。

写作文有一句老话“题简单，立意难”，说的是如果一道题看上去很简单，那么审题不会出现大问题的情况下，想要写出最佳立意就需要考生再多下思考功夫了。

所以我们重新看一遍题目。

第一句就暗藏玄机：泉水……一旦有机会，成为……喷泉，汇成溪流，奔向远方。

所以同学们，泉水和喷泉本是一体，是同一个事物，有机会涌出地面了，泉水也就成了喷泉。

于是我们有的同学把题目理解成了以上的意思和关系，可不可以呢？常见偏离题意的立意：泉水涌出地面才成为喷泉，所以写抓住机会，促成改变；要想成为众人瞩目的对象，就必须涌出地面，去吸引人们的眼球；不同的环境和条件使同一事物的命运不同，所以写环境和条件的重要性……不是不行，但是，这些即使你的表述再完美，都不是最佳立意。

立意参考立意三步走告诉我们，如果题目里面两个事物看似在分高下，那么第一步就是做选择，泉水和喷泉，选择哪个。

选择喷泉的是傻瓜，选择泉水的才聪明。
