考試中,如何快速閱讀文章?
突破“障礙”,破譯“難懂”處
詞匯障礙——運(yùn)用“2策略”:一般來說,在閱讀文章時(shí),總會(huì)碰到一些自己不認(rèn)識的詞,且高考文章中允許出現(xiàn)一定數(shù)量的超出《普通高中英語課程標(biāo)準(zhǔn)》所需求掌握的詞匯。再者,詞義猜測題也是高考題型之一。正確處理閱讀中遇到的生詞,掌握一定的猜測生詞詞義的技巧,對于理解文章及答題都非常重要,對于生詞一般有如下兩種策略:
策略(一) 無關(guān)緊要的詞匯——“跳過去”
在語篇文章設(shè)題時(shí),并不是所有的生詞都是出題點(diǎn)。在閱讀中,當(dāng)遇到一個(gè)生詞時(shí),不妨先問問自己:這個(gè)生詞有沒有進(jìn)行精確猜測的必要。高考試題中經(jīng)常會(huì)出現(xiàn)沒必要去精確猜測的生詞,不知道它的精確含義也不會(huì)影響對基本句意的理解。在考試中,有10%的生詞都不會(huì)干擾考生做題,所以,平時(shí)考生要練習(xí)對生詞的容忍度和處理生詞的技巧,否則,臨場時(shí)考生會(huì)因焦慮而影響做題速度和準(zhǔn)度。對于這類詞,不要過多糾纏,盡管放心大膽地“跳過去”。
1.一起出現(xiàn)的幾個(gè)首字母大寫的單詞:它可能是個(gè)專有名詞,不需要知道其意思,只需要知道它是某個(gè)事物的名稱即可;
2.斜體的單詞:它可能是某本書、某本雜志、某部電影的名稱或某個(gè)專業(yè)術(shù)語,不需要了解它的意思,只需要知道它代表什么事物即可。

[2021·全國新高考卷Ⅰ閱讀 C]About 98 cents of every duck stamp dollar goes directly into the Migratory Bird Conservation Fund to purchase wetlands and wildlife habitat for inclusion into the National Wildlife Refuge System — a fact that ensures this land will be protected and available for all generations to come.
考生在閱讀過程中對于一起出現(xiàn)的“the Migratory Bird Conservation Fund, the National Wildlife Refuge System”大寫字母單詞,不要過多糾纏,盡管放心大膽地“跳過去”,它是專有名詞,不需要深究其含義,知道它是某個(gè)事物的名稱即可。
策略(二) 影響閱讀的詞匯——“猜出來”
有時(shí)候,一些生詞對閱讀來說存在很大的障礙,對上下文的理解至關(guān)重要,我們必須知道這些詞的精確含義。
1.如果是專有名詞,并且對文章理解有關(guān)鍵作用,那么原文中,會(huì)用“同位語+定語從句”的方式進(jìn)行解釋或說明。
2.如果是非專有名詞,根據(jù)上下文,并且結(jié)合常識進(jìn)行推測。
長難句障礙—運(yùn)用“4法寶”:閱讀理解得分低,主要是因?yàn)槲恼驴床欢?,句子太長或者句子結(jié)構(gòu)復(fù)雜,句子除了主干之外還包含了一些附加部分,如插入語、同位語、分隔現(xiàn)象、各種從句或較長的非謂語動(dòng)詞短語等。下面介紹的是運(yùn)用“4招法寶”處理英語閱讀長難句的方法。
法寶1 尋謂語,找主干
一般情況下,一個(gè)謂語形式的動(dòng)詞對應(yīng)其動(dòng)作的發(fā)出者(主語),我們可以根據(jù)謂語動(dòng)詞來確定其主語。而且,如果一個(gè)句子中出現(xiàn)兩個(gè)或兩個(gè)以上的謂語形式的動(dòng)詞,則該句可能是并列句或復(fù)合句(并列謂語動(dòng)詞的情況除外)。
[典例]
[分析]
[2021·全國乙卷閱讀D]The right level of background noise may interrupt our normal patterns of thinking just enough to allow our imaginations to wander, without making it impossible to focus.
尋謂語
本句的謂語為:may interrupt
找主干
主語為The right level of background noise;本句的主干為:The right level of background noise may interrupt our normal patterns of thinking。
析成分
句中的just enough修飾interrupt, to allow our imaginations to wander是不定式短語作結(jié)果狀語;without making it impossible to focus是介詞短語作結(jié)果狀語。
句意
適度的背景噪音可能會(huì)打斷我們正常的思維模式,其程度正好足以使我們展開想象力,但又不至于使我們無法集中注意力。
法寶2 提主干,去枝葉
一般情況下,一個(gè)句子中的主句所表達(dá)的信息為主要信息,從句、狀語或定語等所表達(dá)的信息為次要信息。若句子的主干提煉不出來,就不能完全把握句子的核心意義,從而導(dǎo)致思維混亂,主次不分。
[典例]
[分析]
[2021·全國甲卷閱讀C]Southbank, at an eastern bend in the Thames, is the center of British skateboarding, where the continuous crashing of skateboards left your head ringing.
提主干
本句的主干為:Southbank is the center of British skateboarding
去枝葉
at...Thames為地點(diǎn)狀語,表明Southbank的具體位置。where...ringing為非限制性定語從句修飾先行詞center,where在從句中作地點(diǎn)狀語。
句意
泰晤士河?xùn)|邊彎道處的南岸區(qū),是英國滑板運(yùn)動(dòng)中心,那兒滑板不停的碰撞聲會(huì)把你的腦袋震得嗡嗡作響。
法寶3 尋關(guān)聯(lián),辨邏輯
一些長句其實(shí)是由若干分句組成的并列句或復(fù)合句,它們之間需要一些關(guān)聯(lián)詞來連接。如果找準(zhǔn)這些關(guān)聯(lián)詞,我們就能夠弄清楚句與句之間的邏輯關(guān)系,分別弄清楚主句和從句的意義,那么長句就容易理解了。
[典例]
[分析]
[2021·全國乙卷閱讀B]That said, to be honest the only people who ever ring our home phone are our Baby Boomers parents, to the point where we play a game and guess who is calling before we pick up the phone.
提主干
本句的主干為:the only people are our Baby Boomers
尋關(guān)聯(lián),辨邏輯
who引導(dǎo)定語從句修飾主語the only people; to the point 是介詞短語作狀語,where...the phone是由where引導(dǎo)的定語從句,修飾point,此定語從句中又包含由who引導(dǎo)的賓語從句(who is calling),作guess的賓語。
句意
即便如此,老實(shí)說,唯一給家里座機(jī)打電話的人是嬰兒潮時(shí)期出生的父母們,以至于我們在接電話前會(huì)玩一個(gè)游戲,猜猜是誰打來的。
法寶4 看搭配,防分隔
有時(shí)一個(gè)長句或難句是由一個(gè)或多個(gè)搭配構(gòu)成,而且這些搭配常常出現(xiàn)分隔現(xiàn)象??忌羰芊指衄F(xiàn)象的干擾而看不清句子的本來面目,則會(huì)對句意的理解發(fā)生偏差。
[典例]
[分析]
[2020·全國卷Ⅰ完形]Then when they come to other doors in life, be they real or metaphorical, they won't hesitate to open them and walk through.
提主干
本句的主干為:they won't hesitate to open them and walk through
尋關(guān)聯(lián),辨邏輯
when they come to other doors in life為時(shí)間狀語從句
看搭配,防分隔
be they real or metaphorical為插入語,對other doors進(jìn)行補(bǔ)充說明
句意
當(dāng)他們遇到生活中的其他門時(shí),無論它們是真實(shí)的還是比喻的,他們都會(huì)毫不猶豫地打開門走過去。

Passage 1(2021 ?全國新高考全國Ⅱ卷?第24—27題)
I have worked as a keeper at the National Zoo, Paris for 11 years. Spot and Stripe are the first tiger cubs that have ever been born here. Globally, a third of Sumatran cubs in zoos don't make it to adulthood, so I decided to give them round-the-clock care at home.
I've got two children—the younger one, Kynan, was extremely happy about the tigers arriving - but all of us really looked forward to being part of their lives and watching them grow. I wasn't worried about bringing them into my home with my wife and kids. These were cubs. They weighed about 2.5 kg and were so small that there was absolutely no risk.
As they grew more mobile, we let them move freely around the house during the day, but when we were asleep we had to contain them in a large room, otherwise they'd get up to mischief. We'd come down in the morning to find they'd turned the room upside down, and left it looking like a zoo.
Things quickly got very intense due to the huge amount of energy required to look after them. There were some tough times and I just felt extremely tired. I was grateful that my family was there to help. We had to have a bit of a production line going, making up “tiger milk”, washing baby bottles, and cleaning the floors.
When Spot and Stripe were four months old, they were learning how to open doors and jump fences, and we knew it really was time for them to go. It was hard for us to finally part with them. For the first few days, Kynan was always a bit disappointed that the cubs weren't there.
I'm not sad about it. I'm hands-on with them every day at the zoo, and I do look back very fondly on the time that we had them.
24.Why did the author bring the tiger cubs home?
A.To ensure their survival. B.To observe their differences.
C.To teach them life skills. D.To let them play with his kids.

A.Behave badly. B.Lose their way. C.Sleep soundly. D.Miss their mom.
26.What did the author think of raising the tiger cubs at home?
A.Boring. B.Tiring. C.Costly. D.Risky.
27.Why did the author decide to send Spot and Stripe back to the zoo?
A.They frightened the children. B.They became difficult to contain.
C.They annoyed the neighbours. D.They started fighting each other.
Passage 2(2021 ?全國甲卷?第28—31題)
When I was 9, we packed up our home in Los Angeles and arrived at Heathrow, London on a gray January morning. Everyone in the family settled quickly into the city except me. Without my beloved beaches and endless blue—sky days, I felt at a loss and out of place. Until I made a discovery.
Southbank, at an eastern bend in the Thames, is the center of British skateboarding, where the continuous crashing of skateboards left your head ringing .I loved it. I soon made friends with the local skaters. We spoke our own language. And my favorite: Safe. Safe meant cool. It meant hello. It meant don't worry about it. Once, when trying a certain trick on the beam(橫桿), I fell onto the stones, damaging a nerve in my hand, and Toby came over, helping me up: Safe, man. Safe. A few minutes later, when I landed the trick, my friends beat their boards loud, shouting: “ Safe! Safe! Safe!” And that's what mattered—landing tricks, being a good skater.
When I was 15, my family moved to Washington. I tried skateboarding there, but the locals were far less welcoming. Within a couple of years, I'd given it up.
When I returned to London in 2004, I found myself wandering down to Southbank, spending hours there. I've traveled back several times since, most recently this past spring. The day was cold but clear: tourists and Londoners stopped to watch the skaters. Weaving(穿梭)among the kids who rushed by on their boards, I found my way to the beam. Then a rail—thin teenager, in a baggy white T—shirt, skidded(滑)up to the beam. He sat next to me. He seemed not to notice the man next to him. But soon I caught a few of his glances. “I was a local here 20 years ago,” I told him. Then, slowly, he began to nod his head. “Safe, man. Safe.”
“Yeah,” I said. “Safe.”
28.What can we learn about the author soon after he moved to London?
A.He felt disappointed. B.He gave up his hobby.
C.He liked the weather there. D.He had disagreements with his family.
29.What do the underlined words “Safe! Safe! Safe!” probably mean?
A.Be careful! B.Well done! C.No way! D.Don't worry!
30.Why did the author like to spend time in Southbank when he returned to London?
A.To join the skateboarding. B.To make new friends.
C.To learn more tricks. D.To relive his childhood days
31.What message does the author seem to convey in the text?
A.Children should learn a second language.
B.Sport is necessary for children's health.
C.Children need a sense of belonging
D.Seeing the world is a must for children.
Passage 3(2021 ?全國新高考全國Ⅱ卷?第28—31題)
A British woman who won a S1 million prize after she was named the World's Best Teacher will use the cash to bring inspirational figures into UK schools.
Andria Zafirakou,a north London secondary school teacher, said she wanted to bring about a classroom revolution (變革). “We are going to make a change, ”she said.“I’ve started a project to promote the teaching of the arts in our schools.”
The project results from the difficulties many schools have in getting artists of any sort - whether an up-and-coming local musician or a major movie star - into schools to work with and inspire children.
Zafirakou began the project at Alperton Community School, her place of work for the past twelve years. “I've seen those magic moments when children are talking to someone they are inspired by - their eyes are shining and their faces light up,” she said. “We need artists . more than ever in our schools."
Artist Michael Craig-Martin said: “Andria's brilliant project to bring artists from all fields into direct contact with children is particularly welcome at a time when the arts are being downgraded in schools." It was a mistake to see the arts as unnecessary, he added.
Historian Sir Simon Schama is also a supporter of the project. He said that arts education in schools was not just an add-on. “It is absolutely necessary. The future depends on creativity and creativity depends on the young. What will remain of us when artificial intelligence takes over will be our creativity, and it is our creative spirit, our visionary sense of freshness,that has been our strength for centuries."
1.What will Zafirakou do with her prize money?
A.Make a movie. B.Build new schools.
C.Run a project. D.Help local musicians.
2.What does Craig-Martin think of the teaching of the arts in UK schools?
A.It is particularly difficult. B.It increases artists' income.
C.It opens children's mind. D.It deserves greater attention.
3.What should be stressed in school education according to Schama?
A.Moral principles. B.Interpersonal skills.
C.Creative abilities. D.Positive worldviews.
4.Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?
A.Bring Artists to Schools B.When Historians Meet Artists
C.Arts Education in Britain D.The World's Best Arts Teacher
Passage 4(2020 ?全國Ⅱ卷?第28—31題)
I have a special place in my heart for libraries. I have for as long as I can remember. I was always an enthusiastic reader, sometimes reading up to three books a day as a child. Stories were like air to me and while other kids played ball or went to parties, I lived out adventures through the books I checked out from the library.
My first job was working at the Ukiah Library when I was 16 years old .It was a dream job and I did everything from shelving books to reading to the children for story time.
As I grew older and became a mother, the library took on a new place and an added meaning in my life. I had several children and books were our main source(來源) of entertainment. It was a big deal for us to load up and go to the local library, where my kids could pick out books to read or books they wanted me to read to them.
I always read ,using different voices ,as though I were acting out the stories with my voice and they loved it !It was a special time to bond with my children and it filled them with the wonderment of books .
Now, I see my children taking their children to the library and I love that the excitement of going to the library lives on form generation to generation.
As a novelist, I’ve found a new relationship with libraries. I encourage readers to go to their local library when they can’t afford to purchase a book. I see libraries as a safe haven(避風(fēng)港) for readers and writers, a bridge that helps put together a reader with a book. Libraries, in their own way, help fight book piracy(盜版行為) and 1 think all writers should support libraries in a significant way when they can. Encourage readers to use the library. Share library announcements on your social media. Frequent them and talk about them when you can.
5.Which word best describes the author’s relationship with books as a child?
A.Cooperative. B.Uneasy. C.Inseparable. D.Casual.
6.What does the underlined phrase “an added meaning” in paragraph 3 refer to?
A.Pleasure from working in the library.
B.Joy of reading passed on in the family.
C.Wonderment from acting out the stories.
D.A closer bond developed with the readers.
7.What does the author call on other writers to do?
A.Sponsor book fairs. B.Write for social media.
C.Support libraries. D.Purchase her novels.
8.Which can be a suitable title for the text?
A.Reading: A Source of Knowledge
B.My Idea about writing
C.Library: A Haven for the Young
D.My Love of the Library

[2021·南京、鹽城市高三一模]My husband jokes with me that my midlife crisis was having my now 11-year-old daughter in my 40s.
I started my career as Associate Editor at Woman's World magazine in the late 1990s. Then I was a magazine editor-in-chief of five national consumer publications and also contributed to magazines like Longevity and New Woman.
Four years after getting married in 2005, I eventually gave birth to my daughter, Crystal. As I wrote on Parenting. com: “As the doctor checked her vital organs and my husband counted her 10 perfect fingers and toes, I realized that my body had produced a wonder.”
While my peers were dealing with the stresses of kids in school, I focused my creative energy on carving out my new identity. I was excited when I was offered a “Mom's Talk” column where I wrote about toys, breastfeeding, and my ongoing pursuit of“baby-free”time.
When Crystal was 3 years old, I wrote an essay about watching her dance at a toddler (學(xué)步的兒童) reading group in the library, instead of sitting down with the other children. I expected her performance to annoy people, but her joyful dancing attracted them and made me consider my own possibilities.
“Had I ever been that way, I wondered. If so, could I be like that again? Could I become as free as a child with her whole life ahead of her, ready and willing to be the star of her own production?”
As my daughter transformed from a toddler into a young girl, she continued to be my inspiration. I wrote about the new rules for babysitting and shared research showing that fathers who participated in housework had a positive impact on their daughter's future success on The Washington Post.
I focused on providing Crystal with resilience-building when she neared her teens. I wrote about powerful phrases on The Week, like “no one is the judge of your self-worth”.
As my daughter continues to grow during this messy time, there is one certainty: I will continue to tell my stories, through my midlife wisdom. I can't wait to see her next chapter — and for you to read mine.
4.How did the author feel when giving birth to her daughter?

6.What did Crystal's performance in the library make the author think about?
A.Living the same free life as her daughter's.
B.Giving performance in front of a crowd.

7.Why does the author consider Crystal as her inspiration?

B.She has started writing in the tone of Crystal.
C.Her writing keeps developing as Crystal grows.

[2021·南昌市一模]Cecilia Chiang, whose San Francisco restaurant, the Mandarin, introduced American diners in the 1960s to the richness and variety of authentic Chinese cuisine, died on Wednesday at her home in San Francisco.
Ms. Chiang was not a chef, nor was she a likely candidate to run a restaurant. She was born near Shanghai in 1920 as the seventh daughter in a wealthy family. After her parents died, Cecilia managed the businesses' finances while still in her teens.
Ms. Chiang came to the United States from China to flee the Japanese during World War Ⅱ, traveling nearly 700 miles on foot. Once in San Francisco, she met two Chinese acquaintances who wanted to open a restaurant. Ms. Chiang agreed to put up large funds. But when the two women quit, Ms. Chiang found to her horror that the funds were not refundable (可退還的). She took a deep breath and decided to open the restaurant herself. “I began to think that if I could create a restaurant with Western-style service and the dishes that I was most familiar with — the delicious food of China — maybe my little restaurant would succeed,” she wrote in her book.
The Mandarin, which was opened in 1962 as a 65-seat restaurant, introduced customers to mainly Sichuan, Shanghai and Canton dishes. The early days were difficult. But little by little, Chinese diners, and a few Americans, came regularly. Overnight the tables were filled and the restaurant became a huge success.
Ms. Chiang continued to work as a restaurant consultant into her 90s. “I think I changed what average people know about Chinese food,” Ms. Chiang wrote.“They didn't know China was such a big country.”
4.When did Ms. Chiang start to manage the businesses' finances?
A.In the 1920s. B.In the 1930s.
C.In the 1950s. D.In the 1960s.
5.What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about?
A.When Ms. Chiang came to the US.
B.How Ms. Chiang earned her deposit.
C.What Ms. Chiang wrote in her book.
D.Why Ms. Chiang opened her restaurant.
6.What do we know about The Mandarin?
A.It survived the early hardships.
B.It provided all kinds of Chinese dishes.
C.It could seat less than 60 people at first.
D.It attracted many Americans once opened.
7.Which of the following can best describe Ms. Chiang?
A.Smart but stubborn.
B.Devoted and brave.
C.Adventurous but careless.
D.Enthusiastic and ambitious.

[2021·江西省重點(diǎn)中學(xué)高三聯(lián)考]As a children's author, I don't just write books. I build bridges. I carefully construct each of my stories to connect readers to the story itself, to the characters in the story, and to other readers. My goal is to build kids' social-emotional learning skills to help improve healthy relationships and prevent peer cruelty. And since October is National Bullying Prevention Month, this is the perfect time to share with you, dear book lovers, how literature can be used as an effective tool to address hurtful behavior.
What I'm describing here is nothing new. For years, children's literature has been used by advisors, parents, teachers, and librarians to address tough issues kids face in their everyday world. Researchers report that literature, with proper adult guidance and assistance in a safe social setting, can help form viewpoints and empathy (同情) in young readers. And let's face it: the more empathy and compassion kids have in their hearts, the less room there is for arrogance and contempt(蔑視) for others.
I love what Dr. Zipora Shechtman, author of Treating Child and Adolescent Aggression Through Bibliotherapy, said in the book, “Through the imaginative process that reading involves, children have the opportunity to do what they often cannot do in real life — become thoroughly involved in the inner lives of others, better understand them, and eventually become more aware of themselves.”
Because the social world of today's children is very complex, I try to include the wisdom and insight of young readers in my stories, so that my books go hand in hand with their life experiences and views.
There are also many other wonderful books that generate thoughtful conversations (my website lists my top picks — from pre-school kids to young adults, both fiction and nonfiction). If you're looking for ways to turn stories into teachable moments, visit authors' or publishers' websites for ready-made lesson plans. With lessons in hand, you're ready to open the hearts and minds of young readers to new perspectives and possibilities!
4.Why is it important to teach kids to have empathy and compassion?
A.They will help kids address tough issues.
B.They will make kids treat others equally.
C.They will make kids more optimistic toward life.
D.They will make kids perform better in everything.
5.What does Dr. Zipora Shechtman mainly talk about in his book?
A.The influence of literature on children.
B.Tough issues children face today.
C.The importance of imagination.
D.Interaction between children.
6.In the last paragraph the author intends to ________.
A.a(chǎn)sk us to visit his website
B.make a summary of his view
C.call attention to his books
D.recommend more books to us
7.What's the specific message the author wants to convey in the text?
A.Social-emotional learning skills are important to children.
B.Children can't go without wonderful books.
C.Literature can help to handle the emotionally damaging manner.
D.Authors' or publishers' websites have book lists.

[2021·大連市高三雙基測試卷]Looking back is a wonderful thing. It allows you to see what has led you here and, hopefully, how society has changed and improved.
Take, for instance, my career goal. First, I wanted, in 1999, to be a “farmer”, soon archaeologist, then driving instructor and somewhere along the way, footballer.
I had grown up in a football-loving family. I remember the exact moment when I said “I'm sad I can't be a footballer” while watching the game with Dad as a pre-teen. He asked why not. “Because I'm not a boy.” He immediately responded, “You can, if you want to.” “Yeah, I suppose so,” I sighed, “but no one watches women's football.”
Looking back, I can see exactly why I felt like that. At school, there was an unwritten rule that sports like hockey and netball were“girl” sports and rugby and football were for the boys. I'd never seen a women's football match on TV. You see, you can't be what you can't see, and lack of representation leads, at best, to misunderstanding, and at worst, fear and negative opinions.
Today, the Lionesses took on Scotland in the World Cup, and people across the world tuned in. But, although women's football is one of FIFA's best investments, the majority of female players are earning under a fair wage. Some argue that that's because viewing statistics are lower than those of men's, but the rise in support shows the demand is there. Hopefully, more investment will push female football forward.
Today, I'll be cheering on the Lionesses, because it'll mean talented, skillful female footballers being broadcast into millions of homes and maybe, just maybe, a little girl believing that she can also be a Lioness one day.

Baby Yoda Joins Oregon Firefighters in Battling Wildfires
“Because of all these photos, people are now seeing the human faces behind the wildfires,” Tyler Eubanks excitedly told The Washington Post. “It is giving firefighters huge confidence which is something that's really needed right now.”
Sasha agrees, “It's a wonder how one small gesture can create a wave of kindness.” She says Carver is excited that everyone likes Baby Yoda and happy that the first responders — many of whom have been unable to see their families for weeks — have a “l(fā)ittle friend” to give them comfort.
The toy, along with a note saying, “Thank you, firefighters. Here is a friend for you, in case you get lonely.Love, Carver,” was handed to volunteers on September 12th, 2020. The thoughtful gift brought tears to their eyes. “The fires were close to us, and everyone was really high on emotion,” says Tyler Eubanks. “We were all really touched that Carver wanted to give a companion to the people who were out there risking their lives to fight the wildfires.”
Eubanks delivered the toy to a group of firefighters working to contain the 25-acre flames in Colton, Oregon. She had originally intended to take a few pictures of the Baby Yoda in action for Carver, and then bring back the toy to the donation site. However, the firefighters decided to hold on to the doll and share it to lift the spirits of firefighters across the state.
“He's been a really big encouragement,” said Jaebyn Drake, a firefighter with the Oregon Air National Guard. “I showed the note and everything to a lot of the people on my crew, and they just loved it. A couple of people broke down in tears... It just really meant a lot to us, and it was really emotional for a lot of people.”
1.What is Baby Yoda?
A.A pet. B.A doll.
C.A card. D.A baby.
2.How did the first responders feel?
A.Embarrassed. B.Annoyed.
C.Surprised. D.Moved.
3.What happened to Baby Yoda in the end?
A.It was kept by the firefighters.
B.It was taken a few pictures.
C.It was delivered to The Washington Post.
D.It was brought back to the donation site.
4.What can we learn from Jaebyn Drake's words?
A.Baby Yoda was clever and popular.

[2021·太原市高三年級模擬考試]Some time ago, in my class I was about to fail a student for his answer to a physics question when the student claimed he deserved a better score. The examination question sounded “safe”, “Show how it is possible to determine the height of a tall building with the aid of a barometer (氣壓表).” The student had answered, “Take the barometer to the top of the building, attach a long rope to it, lower the barometer to the street, and then bring it up, measuring the length of the rope. The length of the rope is the height of the building.”
I argued that a high grade should prove his competence in physics, but the answer did not confirm this. I suggested that the student have another try. Immediately, he worked out his answer: A second best way is to take the barometer to the top of the building. Drop the barometer, timing its fall with a stopwatch. Then, using the formula to calculate the height of the building.
I was shocked by his answer. His method gave me not only a broken barometer but a U-turn in my teaching philosophy. I gave him full marks.
On his leaving my office, I recalled that he suggested there could be a better answer. So I asked him what it was. “Oh, yes,” said the student. “There are many ways. Probably the best,” he said, “is to take the barometer to the basement and ask the superintendent (大樓的管理人). You speak to him as follows, ‘Mr. Superintendent, here I have a fine barometer. If you tell me the height of this building, I will give it to you.’”
At this point, I asked the student if he really did not know the conventional answer to this question. He admitted that he did, but said that he was fed up with high school instructors' trying to teach him how to think, and how to use the so-called “scientific method”. He just wanted to solve the problem in a practical manner, not just answer the question in an expected way. Hearing this, I really had nothing to do but give the boy a firm handshake, feeling thankful that I hadn't failed him in the first place and even more thankful that neither had he.
1.Why did the author want to fail the student in the first place?
A.The student challenged his authority.
B.The student's answer was not practical.
C.The student didn't show his academic ability.
D.The student had a poor performance in physics class.
2.Which of the following can best describe the author's new teaching philosophy?
A.Without love, there is no education.
B.A man becomes learned by asking questions.
C.Teaching is to make two ideas grow where only one grew before.
D.You can lead your horse to the river, but you can't make it drink.
3.What made the student abandon the conventional answer?
A.Lack of physics-related knowledge.
B.Ignorance of the teacher's expectation.
C.Intention to deeply impress his teacher.
D.Disapproval of existing teaching concepts.
4.What can we infer from the text?
A.The superintendent was a greedy person.
B.School education restricted this student's thinking.
C.The teacher appreciated the student's answer finally.
D.The examination question is a tough physics problem.

[2021·武漢市高三質(zhì)量檢測]A 15-year-old Colorado high school student and young scientist who has used artificial intelligence (AI) and created apps to address polluted drinking water and other social problems has been named Time magazine's first-ever “Kid of the Year”.
Rao told The Associated Press in an interview from her home that the prize is “nothing that I could have ever imagined. And I'm so grateful and just so excited that we're really taking a look at the upcoming generation and our generation, since the future is in our hands.”
Time said Rao stood out for creating a global community of young innovators and inspiring them to pursue their goals. Rao insisted that starting out small doesn't matter, as long as you're passionate about it.
She told Time contributing editor Angelina Jolie in an interview that her science pursuits started early as a way to improve social conditions. The drinking water crisis in Flint, Michigan, inspired her to develop a way to detect pollutants and send those results to a mobile phone, she said.
“I was like 10 when I told my parents that I wanted to research carbon nanotube (納米管) sensor technology at the Denver Water quality research lab, and my mum was like, ‘A what?’” Rao told Jolie. She said that work “is going to be in our generation's hands pretty soon. So if no one else is gonna do it, I'm gonna do it.”
In a world where science is increasingly questioned or challenged, Rao insisted that its pursuit is an act of kindness, the best way that a younger generation can better the world.
“We have science in everything we're involved in, and I think that's the biggest thing to put out there, that science is cool, innovating is cool, and anybody can be an innovator,” Rao said. “Anybody can do science.”
4.What did Rao think of the award she received?
A.It was a mark of social progress.
B.It was a recognition of her work.
C.It was an inspiration to the youth.

[2021·廣州市綜合測試一]The history of microbiology begins with a Dutch cloth maker named Antonie van Leeuwenhoek, a man of no formal scientific education. In the late 1600s, Leeuwenhoek, inspired by the magnifying lenses (放大鏡) he used to examine cloth, built some of the first microscopes. He developed a technique to improve the quality of tiny, rounded lenses, some of which could magnify an object up to 270 times. After removing some plaque from between his teeth and examining it under a lens, Leeuwenhoek found tiny twisting creatures, which he called “animalcules”.
His observations, which he reported to the Royal Society of London, are among the first descriptions of microbes (微生物). Leeuwenhoek discovered an entire universe invisible to the human eye. He found different microbes in samples of pond water, rainwater, and human blood. He gave the first description of red blood cells, observed plant tissue, examined muscle, and investigated the life cycle of insects.
Nearly two hundred years later, Leeuwenhoek's discovery of microbes helped French chemist and biologist Louis Pasteur to develop his “theory of disease”. This concept suggested that disease originates from tiny organisms attacking and weakening the body. Pasteur's theory later helped doctors to fight infectious diseases including anthrax, diphtheria, polio, smallpox, tetanus, and typhoid. All these breakthroughs were the result of Leeuwenhoek's original work. Leeuwenhoek did not foresee this__legacy.
In a 1716 letter, he described his contribution to science this way: “My work, which I've done for a long time, was not pursued in order to gain the praise I now enjoy, but chiefly from a strong desire for knowledge, which I notice resides in me more than in most other men. And therefore, whenever I found out anything remarkable, I thought it was my duty to put down my discovery on paper, so that the scientific community might be informed.”
1.Which of the following best describes Leeuwenhoek?
A.A trained researcher with an interest in microbiology.
B.A curious amateur who made pioneering studies of microbes.
C.A talented scientist interested in finding a cure for disease.
D.A bored cloth maker who accidentally made a major discovery.
2.The underlined phrase “this legacy” in Paragraph 3 refers to ________.
A.the discovery of microbes
B.Pasteur's theory of disease
C.Leeuwenhoek's contribution
D.the origin of the tiny organism
3.What does the quote from Leeuwenhoek's letter suggest?
A.He admitted that many of his discoveries happened by chance.
B.He considered his work to be central to later medical breakthroughs.
C.He was greatly concerned with improving people's living conditions.
D.He believed the sharing of knowledge was a key to scientific progress.
4.What is the correct order for the following events?
a.Magnifying lenses were built.
b.The “theory of disease” was put forward.
c.Microbes were discovered in samples of water.
d.Leeuwenhoek's first microscopes were successfully developed.
e.Leeuwenhoek explained his thoughts upon his own contribution.

[2021·綿陽市高中第一次診斷]What makes one a great person? The legendary volleyball coach Lang Ping gave the answer in the recent documentary The Iron Hammer, named after her nickname for her powerful strikes.
The documentary features Lang's inspiring journey from her gold medal victory as a volleyball player in the 1984 Olympics to her unparalleled (絕無僅有的) career as a successful coach for both the USA from 2005 to 2008 and China since 2013. She led the US to a silver medal in the 2008 Olympic Games and China to a gold medal triumph in the 2016 Olympic Games, making her the first person to win the Olympic volleyball gold medal as a player and coach.
Lang Ping revealed the secret to such remarkable achievements in the documentary. “I believe volleyball is my destiny,” she said.

But illness is certainly not the only difficulty Lang has faced throughout her career. In 2005, she struggled with balancing raising her daughter Bai Lang, who lived in the US, and her coaching career. She eventually decided to work for USA Volleyball that year and this decision aroused a lot of negative comments back in China.
“I'm proud of being a Chinese,” Lang responded in an interview. Later, she returned to head the Chinese women's volleyball team in 2013, leading the team successfully defending its World Cup crown with a perfect record of 11 straight wins last year.
