The summer when I turned 16,my father gave me a car,which permitted Hannah and me t drive arund Tucsn whenever we wanted t.

Why d We Use Zip Cdes?
Everyne has memrised exactly tw ZIP cdes:90210 and whatever their wn ZIP cde is.We can thank a certain TV shw set in Beverly Hills fr that.
Aside frm that,general knwledge f these five-digit figures is pretty limited.We put them at the end f addresses,and then ur mail magically gets delivered t the right lcatin.We discvered ne f the mst highly kept secrets all mail carriers knw:what ZIP cdes really are and hw they wrk.
The entire practice f using ZIP cdes is a relatively new system that was put in place n July 1,1963.Befre that,starting in 1943,the US Pstal Service used a series f pstal znes fr large cities nly.
In 1944,a pstal wrker named Rbert Mn handed n an idea fr a new pstal zne system that wuld cver the whle cuntry.The first number wuld stand fr a grup f states,starting at zer n the east cast and ending at nine n the west cast,and the secnd and third numbers wuld specify (詳述)t which sectinal centre facility (the place where mail gets prcessed and distributed) the mail shuld g in that area.The US Pstal Service eventually adpted this plan and,the Zne Imprvement Plan Cde—r ZIP cde—was brn.
Abut 20 years after the first ZIP cdes were put int place,the Pstal Service made ne mre adjustment:the fur digits that cme after yur ZIP cde.These stand fr a specific area that any given pst ffice cvers.The sixth and seventh numbers refer t a delivery sectr,which culd be a grup f streets,ne large building,r anther small gegraphic area.The last tw stand fr a delivery segment(片區(qū)).
Even thugh the US Pstal Service says the prper cntributin t the ZIP cde’s creatin ges t a cmmittee f peple,ur addresses wuld lk quite different if it weren’t fr Mn’s numerical inspiratin.
8.Why are many peple familiar with ZIP cde “90210”?
A.It’s easy t understand and memrise.
B.It’s because f a famus TV prgramme.
C.It’s related with Beverly Hills.
D.It’s a ZIP cde f five-digit figures.
9.What can we knw abut pstal znes used in 1943?
A.It was the entire practice f ZIP cdes.
B.It was used fr a very lng time.
C.It was ppular with big cities.
D.It wasn’t very cnvenient t use.
10.What des the third number in a ZIP cde stand fr accrding t Mn’s system?
A.The state.
B.Where the letter is frm.
C.Where the letter is t.
D.The prper pst ffice.
11.What des the authr intend t d in Paragraph 5?
A.What the fur numbers at the end f a cde mean.
B.What ZIP cdes really are and the uses they bring.
C.The big change f US Pstal Service.
D.The US ZIP cdes is really very cmplex.

It’s tugh t see r hear f a friend in crisis.One idea t keep in mind is that it is healthy fr the distressed persn t feel what he r she feels in the mment.When a persn in crisis feels understd,he r she feels less alne and cnnected t the persn wh understands.
A persn,wh experiences empathy(同理心)frm a friend wh can “g there” fr a few minutes in rder t authentically understand while still maintaining a strng and supprtive attitude,may be relieved and healed.While a friend is telling yu abut the circumstance,the first and mst imprtant step is t listen fr feelings,nt ways t slve the prblem.
Fr example,a friend is terribly upset because her husband is threatening t leave her.After fully hnuring the feelings,it is imprtant t ask the friend what wuld help.Maybe it is a gd cry and sme ice cream.Perhaps it’s a glass f wine and a walk.Everyne has different ways f dealing.Be respectful and ask the friend what she needs r wants,nt what yu prescribe.
Take a secnd example,saying a clse friend is being misrepresented by ther friends.The friends are gssiping abut her.During a cnversatin with her,listen fr feelings.Hnur her hurt and shck.The same equatin is useful with a partner.
Helping a friend r partner in crisis nt nly helps the persn,but creates clseness and trust in the relatinship,making pening up in the prbable future.In additin,the persn wh is empathizing feels psitive because he r she was able t help.When a persn is truly able t cmfrt and reassure a lved ne,he r she feels vital and useful,strengthening the relatinship.
12.What shuld we d first when we knw a friend is in crisis?
A.Keep away frm him/her.
B.Buy him/her a glass f wine.
C.Understand hw he/she feels.
D.Shw him/her ways t slve the prblem.
13.What des the underlined wrd “it” in Paragraph 3 refer t?
A.A way t slve the crisis.
B.A way t relieve a bad md.
C.A way t listen fr feelings.
D.A way t hnur the feelings.
14.Hw des the authr prve his/her idea?
A.By listing data.B.By quting sayings.
C.By giving examples.D.By cnducting surveys.
15.What des the text mainly talk abut?
A.Hw t keep a lved ne.
B.Hw t make new friends.
C.Hw t wrk with yur partner.
D.Hw t help a friend in truble.
Ⅱ.閱讀七選五
Many peple say “thank yu” using text messages r chat these days. 1 It’s a meaningful way t express gratitude when yu receive a gift r becme the recipient f smene’s thughtful actin.Address yur letter warmly and make it persnal and sincere.

高考題型·組合規(guī)范練4
必修第二冊 UNIT 1 閱讀題組——練速度
Ⅰ.【語篇導讀】本文是一篇應用文。書籍不能阻止全球性的流行病,但是,在短時間內,它們可以讓我們忘記周圍的世界,把我們帶到不同的地方,讓我們在精神上旅行。本文主要介紹了四本書的相關信息。
1.A 細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段中的“Mistry des nt whitewash the reality f urban pverty in India.”可知,A Fine Balance是以印度為背景的。故選A項。
2.D 細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第五段中的“Reading Ferrante’s descriptin calls frth images f Napli and makes us feel like we are standing in the Piazza del Plebiscit.We can feel,hear and smell Napli arund us.”以及倒數(shù)第四段中的“Mdian attempts t retrace Dra’s mvements acrss Paris and his bk is full f evcative descriptins f quiet squares and streets.”可知,My Brilliant Friend與The Search Warrant的共同點是兩者都生動地描述了環(huán)境。故選D項。
3.C 細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)最后一段“This allusin t British fascism in particular is smething that makes this nvel stand ut;it is a subject matter nt ften discussed r even taught.”可知,尤其是對英國法西斯主義的提及使這部小說脫穎而出;這是一個很少被討論或者甚至被教授的主題。由此可知,The Remains f the Day的特別之處在于它涉及了很少被提及的話題。故選C項。
【語篇導讀】本文是一篇記敘文。文章講述了作者與好朋友漢娜開車發(fā)生車禍,毀了漢娜的模特事業(yè),但卻被漢娜的媽媽和漢娜原諒的故事。
4.B 細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段最后一句“Taking a turn t fast,I hit a patch f dirt and fishtailed.”可知,作者是因為開車的時候轉彎太快出了事故,故選B項。
5.B 推理判斷題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段中的“but Sharn stpped me,‘I frgive yu.Hannah will,t.’”可知,漢娜的媽媽原諒了作者,所以她是一個寬宏大量的(generus)人。故選B項。
6.C 細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段中的“ f her mdelling career.”可知,這場車禍毀了漢娜的模特事業(yè)。故選C項。
7.D 主旨大意題。好朋友漢娜和她媽媽原諒了作者的過錯,作者和漢娜成了一生的好朋友,而之后每當作者想因為過錯而怨恨某人時,就會想起她們對她的寬恕。作者通過這個經歷強調了學會寬恕。故選D項。
【語篇導讀】本文是一篇說明文。文章主要講述了美國郵政編碼的歷史以及郵政編碼數(shù)字代表的含義。
8.B 細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段“Everyne has memrised exactly tw ZIP cdes:90210 and whatever their wn ZIP cde is.We can thank a certain TV shw set in Beverly Hills fr that.”可知,人們對這個郵政編碼非常熟悉是因為以比弗利山莊為背景的某個電視節(jié)目的原因,所以選B項。
9.C 細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段第二句“Befre that,starting in 1943,the US Pstal Service used a series f pstal znes fr large cities nly.”可知,從1943年開始,美國郵政局只對大城市使用一系列的郵區(qū),因此C項正確。
10.C 細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段第二句“the secnd and third numbers wuld specify t which sectinal centre facility(the place where mail gets prcessed and distributed) the mail shuld g in that area.”可知,第二個和第三個數(shù)字將指定郵件應該送到該區(qū)域哪一個部門中心設施(郵件處理和分發(fā)的位置),所以C項正確。
11.A 推理判斷題。文章第五段提到在第一批郵政編碼投入使用大約20年后,郵政部門又對系統(tǒng)進行了一次調整,然后分別介紹了郵政編碼每個數(shù)字代表的具體意思,因此A項是最佳選項。
【語篇導讀】本文是一篇議論文。文章講述了如何幫助處于危機中的朋友。作者認為最重要的是傾聽朋友的感受而不是給出解決問題的方法,做到感同身受,并通過例子證明了自己的想法。
12.C 細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段中的“While a friend is telling yu abut the circumstance,the first and mst imprtant step is t listen fr feelings,nt ways t slve the prblem.(當朋友告訴你相關情況的時候,第一步也是最重要的一步是傾聽感受,而不是解決問題的方法)”可知,當我們知道一個朋友處于危機中時,我們首先應該理解他或她的感受。故選C項。
13.B 詞義猜測題。根據(jù)上文“After fully hnuring the feelings,it is imprtant t ask the friend what wuld help.(在充分尊重感情之后,重要的是問問朋友需要什么幫助)”以及下文“Maybe it is a gd cry and sme ice cream.Perhaps it’s a glass f wine and a walk.Everyne has different ways f dealing.(也許它是好好地哭一場和一些冰激凌,也許是一杯酒和散散步,每個人有不同的處理方法)”可推斷,it指的是緩解壞心情的方法。故選B項。
14.C 推理判斷題。文章一、二兩段作者提出了自己的想法,理解和傾聽處于危機中的朋友是困難的,重要的是傾聽他或她的感覺,而不是給予解決問題的辦法。根據(jù)第三段中的“Fr example,a friend is terribly upset...”和第四段中的“Take a secnd example”可知,作者接下來通過兩個例子證明了這個想法。故選C項。
15.D 主旨大意題。縱觀全文,第一段作者提出了文章的中心,由“It’s tugh t see r hear f a friend in crisis.One idea t keep in mind is that it is healthy fr the distressed persn t feel what he r she feels in the mment.(理解或傾聽處于危機中的朋友很難。要記住的一點是,對于痛苦的人來講,感受此刻他或她的感受是有益的)”以及第二段中的“While a friend is telling yu abut the circumstance,the first and mst imprtant step is t listen fr feelings,nt ways t slve the prblem.(當朋友告訴你情況的時候,第一步也是最重要的一步是傾聽感受,而不是解決問題的方法)”可知,本文主要講述如何幫助有困難的朋友。故選D項。
Ⅱ.【語篇導讀】本文是一篇說明文。文章主要介紹了如何寫感謝信,如:以稱呼開頭;誠摯地表達謝意;讓他們知道他們的禮物值得珍惜的原因等。
1.E 根據(jù)下文的“It’s a meaningful way t express gratitude...”可知,上文應該提到一種寫感謝信的方式,E項中的“ ld-fashined thank-yu letter”符合語境。
2.G 本段的小標題是“以稱呼開頭”,G項“在任何情況下,以‘Dear...’為開頭都是合適的”正是對標題的說明。
3.A 根據(jù)下文的“Describing the gift a little...”可知,描述一下禮物是為了說明禮物是你十分珍惜的。因此空格處應具體說明為什么要感謝他,所以選A項。
4.D 本段提到即使你不喜歡這個禮物,但是考慮到他人的花費和付出的努力,也要讓他知道禮物對你很重要。由此可知,本段主要說明你為什么珍惜這個禮物,所以選D項。
5.B 本段的小標題是“Clse the letter”。B項“如果你無法做決定,簽你的名字就可以”符合語境。
