15.A.if B.where
C.how D.when
答案:A 這里用if引導(dǎo)賓語從句:Erin把作者的駕照照片發(fā)布到網(wǎng)上論壇中,看看是否有人認(rèn)識(shí)作者。

Ⅱ.閱讀理解
(2020·河南省焦作市高三定位考試)Brian Hamilton's life changed in a prison when he was accompanying his friend, Reverend Robert J. Harris, who often went to local prisons to do his work. During the visit, Hamilton started talking to one of the prisoners and asked what he was going to do when he got out.
“He said he was going to get a job,” Hamilton recalls (回憶). “I thought to myself, wow, that's going to be difficult with a criminal background.”
The conversation made Hamilton consider how prisoners could benefit from entrepreneurship,_something he thought about for years. Finally in 2008, 16 years after that initial conversation, Hamilton created Inmates to Entrepreneurs, a nonprofit organization that helps people with criminal backgrounds start their own small businesses. “Harris and I taught our first course at a prison called ‘How to Start Your Own Business When You Get Out’,” he recalls.
At the time, Hamilton was building his own company, Sageworks. As Sageworks grew, so did Hamilton's time spent teaching at prisons throughout North Carolina.
Eventually, Hamilton decided it was time to change his focus to his true passion. In May 2018, he sold his stake (股份) in Sageworks, focusing his commitment on Inmates to Entrepreneurs.
“Now, anyone is able to access the curriculum, either to become an instructor to go into prisons to teach it or to access it for themselves as a prisoner or part of the general population,” Hamilton explains. In addition, he visits middle schools and presents the curriculum to at-risk students as a preventative measure against crime.
The free curriculum is funded by the recently established Brian Hamilton Foundation, which offers assistance to military members as they adjust to civilian life and provides loans to small businesses. “We're giving prisoners something they can do independent of a system that isn't working for them. If you can let people know that other people care about them, it makes a difference.”
篇章導(dǎo)讀:本文是一篇人物傳記。文章敘述了Brian Hamilton成功創(chuàng)業(yè)的故事,Hamilton創(chuàng)建了“Inmates to Entrepreneurs”這個(gè)組織,這是一個(gè)幫助有犯罪背景的人創(chuàng)業(yè)的非營利組織。
1.Why did Brian Hamilton think the prisoner couldn't easily find a job after getting out?
A.He didn't have any special skills.
B.He would have his criminal background with him.
C.He would break the criminal law again and again.
D.He couldn't access the courses provided by the prison.
答案:B 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由第二段中的“I thought to myself, wow, that's going to be difficult with a criminal background.”可知,Brian Hamilton心想,有犯罪背景的人找工作是很難的。故選B項(xiàng)。
2.What does the underlined word “entrepreneurship” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A.Thinking of a good idea after working hard for years.
B.Trying one's best because of being kept in a small place.
C.Making money by starting or running one's own businesses.
D.Having a job in a profitable company owned by the government.
答案:C 詞義猜測題。由第三段中的“The conversation made Hamilton consider how prisoners could benefit from entrepreneurship, something he thought about for years ... a nonprofit organization that helps people with criminal backgrounds start their own small businesses.”可知,這次談話讓Hamilton開始思考囚犯如何從創(chuàng)業(yè)中獲益,這是他多年來一直在思考的問題。Hamilton創(chuàng)建了一個(gè)名為“Inmates to Entrepreneurs”的組織,這是一個(gè)幫助有犯罪背景的人創(chuàng)業(yè)的非營利組織。所以通過上下文的語境可以判斷出,第3段中劃線的“entrepreneurship”一詞是指通過創(chuàng)辦或經(jīng)營自己的企業(yè)來賺錢。故選C項(xiàng)。
3.What does the text say about Inmates to Entrepreneurs?
A.It often assists military members.
B.It provides loans to small businesses.
C.It's independent of the social system.
D.Its curriculum has been largely broadened.
答案:D 推理判斷題。由倒數(shù)第二段中的“Now, anyone is able to access the curriculum ... In addition, he visits middle schools and presents the curriculum to at-risk students as a preventative measure against crime. The free curriculum is funded by the recently established Brian Hamilton Foundation”可知,現(xiàn)在,任何人都可以使用這些課程。此外,Hamilton還走訪了一些中學(xué),并將課程介紹給有犯罪風(fēng)險(xiǎn)的學(xué)生,作為預(yù)防犯罪的一項(xiàng)措施。這項(xiàng)免費(fèi)課程由最近成立的布萊恩漢密爾頓基金會(huì)(Brian Hamilton Foundation)資助。所以通過課程的使用人群的范圍可以判斷出,“Inmates to Entrepreneurs”組織的課程已經(jīng)得到了很大地?cái)U(kuò)展。故選D項(xiàng)。
4.What is the main idea of the text?
A.A man made a fruitless visit to the prison.
B.A man sold his business to teach prisoners.
C.A man realized his dream of being a teacher.
D.A man successfully created two organizations.
答案:B 主旨大意題。通讀全文可知,文章敘述了Brian Hamilton成功創(chuàng)業(yè)的故事, Hamilton創(chuàng)建了“Inmates to Entrepreneurs”這個(gè)幫助有犯罪背景的人創(chuàng)業(yè)的非營利組織。與此同時(shí),Hamilton還建立自己的公司Sageworks。2018年他賣掉了Sageworks的股份,一心投到“Inmates to Entrepreneurs”中來,去教犯人如何去創(chuàng)業(yè)。所以文章主要講述了一個(gè)男人賣了他的企業(yè)去教囚犯如何創(chuàng)業(yè)的事情。故選B項(xiàng)。
(2020·內(nèi)蒙古自治區(qū)奮斗中學(xué)高三月考)I remember watching TV and seeing other children suffer in other parts of the world when I was a very little child. I would talk to myself, “When I grow up, when I can become rich, I'll save kids all over the world.”
At the age of 17, I began my career here in America, and by 18, I started my first charity organization. I went on to team up with other organizations in the following years, and met, helped, and even lost some of the most beautiful souls, from six-year-old Jasmina Anema who passed away in 2010 from leukemia (白血病)—her story inspired thousands to volunteer as donors, to 2012 when my grandmother lost her battle with cancer, which is the very reason and the driving force behind the Clara Lionel Foundation (CLF). We're all human. And we all just want a chance: a chance at life, a chance in education, a chance at a future, really. And at CLF, our mission is to impact as many lives as possible, but it starts with just one.
People make it seem too hard to do charity work. The truth is, you don't have to be rich to help others. You don't need to be famous. You don't even have to be college-educated. But it starts with your neighbor, the person right next to you, the person sitting next to you in class, the kid down the block in your neighborhood. You just do whatever you can to help in any way that you can. And today, I want to challenge each of you to make a commitment to help one person, one organization, one situation that touches your heart. My grandmother always used to say, “If you've got a dollar, there's plenty to share.”
篇章導(dǎo)讀:本文是一篇記敘文。文章講述了作者年少時(shí)立志長大幫助遭受痛苦的孩子們。長大后,作者兌現(xiàn)諾言做慈善工作,并號(hào)召人們做力所能及的事來幫助周圍的人。
5.What did the author want to do at a young age?
A.Watch TV. B.Help other children.
C.Become wealthy. D.Grow up quickly.
答案:B 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)題干中的關(guān)鍵詞“at a young age”以及第一段第二句“I would say to myself, ‘When I grow up, when I can become rich, I will save kids all over the world.’”可知作者小時(shí)候想幫助其他孩子。故選B。
6.Which of the following directly caused the author to create and develop the CLF?
A.A six-year-old kid's request.
B.Many volunteers' inspiration for it.
C.Her grandmother's death of cancer.
D.Other organizations' encouragement.
答案:C 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段中的“to 2012 when my grandmother lost her battle with cancer, which is the very reason and the driving force behind the Clara Lionel Foundation (CLF)”可知,祖母的逝世是作者創(chuàng)辦和發(fā)展CLF的直接動(dòng)力。故選C。
7.What does the underlined word “one” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A.A life. B.A chance.
C.A task. D.An organization.
答案:A 詞義猜測題。根據(jù)畫線詞所在句“And at CLF, our mission is to impact as many lives as possible, but it starts with just one.”可知,該組織的使命是影響盡可能多的生命,但是這需要從影響一個(gè)生命開始。由此可推知,one指代的是前面提到的many lives中的一個(gè)。故選A。
8.What does the author suggest people do in the last paragraph?
A.Do charity work when you are rich.
B.Challenge their friends to offer help.
C.Work very hard to get a college education.
D.Do little things to help those around them.
答案:D 推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段中的“But it starts with your neighbor ... in your neighborhood.”和“You just do whatever you can to help in any way that you can. And today, I want to challenge each of you to make a commitment to help one person, one organization, one situation that touches your heart.”可知,作者建議人們可以從小事做起,做力所能及的事來幫助周圍的人。故選D。
Ⅲ.短文改錯(cuò)
(2019·貴州省遵義航天高級(jí)中學(xué)第一次模擬)Mr and Mrs Zhang all work in our school. They live far away from the school, and it takes them about a hour and a half to go to work every day. In their spare time, they are interesting in planting vegetables in their garden, that is on the rooftop of their house. They often get up earlier and water the vegetables together. They have also bought for some gardening tools. Beside, they often get some useful informations from the Internet. When summer came, they will invite their students pick the fresh vegetables!
答案:
Mr and Mrs Zhang /all work in our school. They live far away from the school, and it takes them about hour and a half to go to work every day. In their spare time, they are in planting vegetables in their garden, is on the rooftop of their house. They often get up and water the vegetables together. They have also bought some gardening tools. , they often get some useful from the Internet. When summer , they will invite their students pick the fresh vegetables!
1.all→both或去掉all 考查代詞。因?yàn)橹髡Z是兩個(gè)人,所以用both表示“兩者都”,而all則表示“三者或三者以上的全部”。此處將all去掉也可以。
2.a→an/one 考查冠詞。因?yàn)閔our的發(fā)音以元音音素開頭,所以其前用an。此處也可用one表示數(shù)量“一”。
3.interesting→interested 考查形容詞。因?yàn)槭敲枋鲋髡Zthey的心理狀態(tài),所以使用be interested in “對(duì)……感興趣的”。
4.that→which 考查定語從句的引導(dǎo)詞。此處是非限制性定語從句,且關(guān)系代詞在從句中作主語,指代主句中的garden,所以用which來引導(dǎo)。that不能用于引導(dǎo)非限制性定語從句。
5.earlier→early 考查副詞。此處沒有比較的含義,所以用early的原級(jí)。
6.去掉for 考查動(dòng)詞的用法。buy為及物動(dòng)詞,其后直接跟賓語,而buy sth. for sb.意為“為某人買某物”。
7.Beside→Besides 考查副詞。beside為介詞,意為“在……旁邊”,而besides為副詞,意為“此外;另外”。根據(jù)上下文可知,此處表示“另外,他們還從網(wǎng)上獲取一些信息”,故用Besides。
8.informations→information 考查名詞。information為不可數(shù)名詞,無復(fù)數(shù)形式。
9.came→comes 考查動(dòng)詞的時(shí)態(tài)和主謂一致。根據(jù)主句中的“they will”可知,此處應(yīng)遵循“主將從現(xiàn)”原則,即主句使用一般將來時(shí),從句應(yīng)用一般現(xiàn)在時(shí);從句的主語summer表示單數(shù),謂語動(dòng)詞應(yīng)用第三人稱單數(shù)形式。
10.students后加to 考查非謂語動(dòng)詞。invite sb. to do sth.意為“邀請(qǐng)某人做某事”。
