[話題感悟]
學(xué)習(xí)目標(biāo) ——語篇復(fù)現(xiàn)詞匯,活學(xué)活用記憶更深
( 加藍(lán)詞匯為本單元話題詞匯,讀文時請揣摩其用法)
[1]The philosopher Robert Nozick used the idea of an “experience machine” to refute the view that good experiences are all we want from life.He thought that most of us would not choose the machine and prefer reality.“But why?” he encouraged us to ask.

[2]There was no such thing as virtual (虛擬的) reality (VR) when he was writing.But now we can give ourselves computer generated experiences that are like the real thing.The question raised by Nozick has become a real issue.Why should you prefer the trouble and expense of actually visiting Angkor Wat or Niagara Falls when you can get all the experiences of being there by putting on goggles and a body suit?
[3]One answer is that the emotions you feel when you have a virtual experience are not as valuable.When you actually see Niagara Falls, you feel awe and even fear in the face of an overpowering force of nature.Being in the presence of something that causes you these feelings is part of the pleasure.
[4]Visiting a virtual Niagara Falls may also cause you feelings of awe and fear but they are cheapened by your knowledge that the danger is not real and that your mind is being tricked into thinking that it is.
[5]Reality also holds potential for making discoveries that virtual reality lacks.Those who visit Angkor Wat hope to see more than they expected from tourist information, perhaps even discover what they have missed.Computer simulations (模擬), however good, contain only what people have put into them.
[6]There is a further reason for preferring a real experience.Real experiences connect us to the deeds of past people and place us in contexts where history was made.Viewing an actual painting by Rembrandt is a more valuable experience than viewing a copy, however good.The genuine painting was the work of the man himself.We see his brush strokes on the canvas.We are in the presence of genius.
[7]Virtual reality can take us to places we can never go.It can be exciting, amusing and a good way of spending leisure time.But it will never be a substitute for connections with the real thing.
語篇解讀:本文是一篇議論文。虛擬現(xiàn)實雖然能讓人激動、愉快、打發(fā)休閑時光,但是它永遠(yuǎn)不會代替現(xiàn)實世界。
1.What does the underlined word “refute” in Paragraph 1 mean?
A.Contradict.      B.Express.
C.Prove. D.Correct.
解析:選A 詞義猜測題。根據(jù)畫線詞后面的“the view that good experiences are all we want from life”和“He thought that most of us would not choose the machine and prefer reality.”可知,他想用這一想法來批駁人們都愿意要那些虛假美好的經(jīng)歷。由此可知畫線詞與contradict“反駁”意思相近。故選A。
2.What does the author think of virtual reality?
A.It can benefit people in certain aspects.
B.It will be smart enough to satisfy all of our needs.
C.It cannot cause feelings of fear or happiness.
D.It cannot help us understand what has happened.
解析:選A 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)最后一段前兩句可知,虛擬現(xiàn)實能夠帶我們?nèi)ノ覀儽静荒苋サ牡胤?,能讓人激動、愉快、打發(fā)休閑時光,所以它是有一定的好處的,故選A。
3.How many reasons are mentioned to support the preference for reality?
A.Two. B.Three.
C.Four. D.Five.
解析:選B 推理判斷題。作者在第三、第四段中提到虛擬現(xiàn)實會給人帶來敬畏和恐懼的心理,第五段說現(xiàn)實世界有著虛擬現(xiàn)實世界所沒有的東西;第六段又陳述了一個更深層次的原因;因此作者共列舉了三個人們更偏愛現(xiàn)實世界的原因。故選B。
4.Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A.What VR Cannot Offer?
B.How VR Changes Our Life?
C.How VR Is Different from Reality?
D.Why VR Cannot Match the Real Thing?
解析:選D 標(biāo)題歸納題。文章主要陳述了虛擬現(xiàn)實雖然能讓人激動、愉快、打發(fā)休閑時光,但是它永遠(yuǎn)不會代替現(xiàn)實世界,無法和現(xiàn)實世界匹配的原因。故選D。
學(xué)習(xí)目標(biāo) ——題后把脈規(guī)律,練后得法理解更透
利用轉(zhuǎn)折詞but/however巧解閱讀理解題
通過研究近幾年高考閱讀理解試題,我們發(fā)現(xiàn)but和however重現(xiàn)率較高,幾乎每年高考閱讀理解都有一些題目的答案與這兩個詞有關(guān),我們應(yīng)高度重視but和however,特別是其后的內(nèi)容。表示轉(zhuǎn)折的but和however有很強(qiáng)的意義強(qiáng)調(diào)功能,對我們判斷上下文文意、推斷作者態(tài)度、猜測人物心理、理清文章層次都具有舉足輕重的作用。
but和however在文中通常有以下幾種作用:
(1)引出作者觀點(diǎn),反駁but前面的觀點(diǎn)(普遍觀點(diǎn))。
(2)通過對比引出相反或相對的信息。
(3)表明作者態(tài)度或提出作者的建議。
如上文最后一句中的“But”一詞就是解第2題的關(guān)鍵。

A
(2019·濟(jì)南市高考模擬)Welcome to your future life!
You get up in the morning and look into the mirror. Your face is firm and young-looking. In 2035, medical technology is better than ever. Many people could live to be 150, so at 40, you're not old at all. And your parents just had an anti-aging (抗衰老的) treatment. Now, all three of you look the same age!
You say to your shirt, “Turn red.” It changes from blue to red. In 2035, “smart clothes” contain particles (粒子) much smaller than the cells in your body. The particles can be programmed to change clothes' color or pattern.
You walk into the kitchen. You pick up the milk, but a voice says, “You shouldn't drink that!” Your fridge has read the chip (芯片) that contains information about the milk, and it knows the milk is old. In 2035, every article of food in the grocery store has such a chip.
It's time to go to work. In 2035, cars drive themselves. Just tell your “smart car” where to go. On the way, you can call a friend using your jacket sleeve. Such “smart technology” is all around you.
So will all these things come true? “For new technology to succeed,” says scientist Andrew Zolli, “it has to be so much better that it replaces what we have already.” The Internet is one example what will be the next?
語篇解讀:本文介紹了未來新科技在日常生活的應(yīng)用,比如:抗衰老的醫(yī)療科技,會自動開的小汽車,可變換顏色和式樣的衣物,帶芯片的食物等。
1.We can learn from the text that in the future ________.
A.people will never get old
B.everyone will look the same
C.red will be the most popular color
D.clothes will be able to change their pattern
解析:選D 推理判斷題。根據(jù)第三段最后一句“The particles can be programmed to change your clothes' color or pattern.”可知,衣物可以改變顏色和式樣,故選D。
2.What can be inferred from Paragraph 4?
A.Milk will be harmful to health.
B.More drinks will be available for sale.
C.Food in the grocery store will carry electronic information.
D.Milk in the grocery store will stay fresh much longer.
解析:選C 推理判斷題。根據(jù)“the chip (芯片) that contains information about the milk”及“every article of food in the grocery store has such a chip”可知雜貨店的每樣食物都有儲存信息的芯片。
3.Which of the following is mentioned in the text?
A.Nothing can replace the Internet.
B.Fridges will know what people need.
C.Jacket sleeves can be used as a guide.
D.Cars will be able to drive automatically.

4.What is the text mainly about?
A.Food and clothing in 2035.
B.Future technology in everyday life.
C.Medical treatments of the future.
D.The reason for the success of new technology.
解析:選B 主旨大意題??v觀全文尤其是文章第一句可知文章主要講述新科技在未來日常生活的應(yīng)用。
B
(2019·河南省適應(yīng)性測試)As the demand for power and fuel grows steadily in the coming decades, we must consider every possible energy source on hand if we're to meet the world's needs. And because the clean natural gas is found in great plenty, there is no doubt that it will play a major role on the world energy stage in this century, much like what oil did in the last. But, like oil, gas reserves are concentrated in just a few places in the world, usually far from where they're needed most. And that's only part of the challenge. The world has spent over 100 years searching for oil and building the necessary facilities to bring it to market. However, the natural gas facilities, particularly when it comes to liquefied (液化) natural gas (LNG), are not nearly as developed.
So what needs to be done? On the supply side, producing nations need policies that allow for better development of their natural gas in an open, stable business environment, not one in which the rules of the game change without warning. The governments of consuming nations, on the other hand, must make policies for sustainable (可持續(xù)的) development to ensure they'll have enough supplies in the future. That means building the related facilities, including LNG stations. This, in turn, will require coastal areas to allow these necessary, but not necessarily pretty, facilities to be built in their backyards. And energy companies have a responsibility to be good neighbors in those areas by operating these facilities responsibly and safely. They must also continue to put in the billions of dollars needed to build the complex transport and storage facilities required to bring more gas to market.
Expanding and diversifying (使多樣化) energy sources by using more natural gas could lead to lower fuel prices and to greater energy security, we've taken some of the steps to get started, but we need your help to get the rest of the way.
語篇解讀:本文是一篇議論文。隨著能源需求的不斷增長,作為清潔能源的天然氣在本世紀(jì)的能源舞臺上將會起到舉足輕重的作用,因此無論對于天然氣的供應(yīng)方還是天然氣的消費(fèi)方來說,更好地利用、開發(fā)天然氣資源非常重要。
5.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A.Gas played a major part in the 20th century.
B.Gas reserves are widely spread around the world.
C.Natural gas facilities are far from satisfactory.
D.Necessary facilities are ready to bring gas to market.
解析:選C 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段中的“And because the clean natural gas is found in great plenty ... much like what oil did in the last.”可知20世紀(jì)在能源舞臺起重要作用的是石油,故排除A項;根據(jù)第一段中“gas reserves are concentrated in just a few places in the world, usually far from where they're needed most”可知天然氣儲存集中在世界很少的幾個地方,故排除B項;根據(jù)第一段“the natural gas facilities, particularly when it comes to liquefied (液化) natural gas (LNG), are not nearly as developed”可排除D項。故選擇C項。
6.The underlined word “one” in Paragraph 2 refers to __________________________.
A.a(chǎn) gas supply side
B.a(chǎn) policy for gas development
C.a(chǎn) gas consuming nation
D.a(chǎn) business environment
解析:選D 代詞指代題。根據(jù)第二段第二句可知:對于供應(yīng)方,產(chǎn)氣國要制定一些政策使天然氣在開放、穩(wěn)固的環(huán)境下而不是在毫無任何警告就改變游戲規(guī)則的環(huán)境下得以更好開發(fā)。由此可見本句中的one替代的是上面的 business environment,故答案為D項。
7.The main purpose of the passage is to ________.
A.warn people of the lack of power and fuel
B.discuss the importance of oil and natural gas
C.instruct people how to make use of energy sources
D.call for better use and development of natural gas
解析:選D 寫作意圖題。本文的主題是天然氣的開發(fā)及利用,故本文的寫作目的是號召人們更好地使用和開發(fā)天然氣,故答案為D項。
8.The passage might be followed by a paragraph about ___________________________.
A.which countries are in great need of gas
B.where energy sources are concentrated
C.what kind of help you can offer
D.what problems of energy sources we may face
解析:選C 推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章最后一句中的“... but we need your help to get the rest of the way.”可推知下文要介紹你可以提供哪些幫助,故答案為C項。
