1 小卷速测(十一) 完形+阅读 C+D (限时:30 分钟) Ⅰ.[2019·上海杨浦二模改编] 完形填空 I was 23 before my first novel appeared in the bookshops. It had been a(n) 1 to find a publisher who would even look at it. As soon as they heard that it was about 2 and their problems, they just weren't interested. 3 one of them read it and loved the way I try to show the funny side of any difficult situation. I'm quite 4 teenagers now, and some even say hello when they see me in the street. I'm not sure where my 5 come from—that's like asking people to tell you where their dreams come from. Some writers get 6 from other writers' work they've read, 7 I keep a notebook and I put down interesting things I notice wherever I go. Those things come into my stories. I write full time now and I love it, but it's 8 work. I write everything out by hand, and after I've corrected it, I 9 it on my computer. I'm OK at 10 and I've done some pictures for my books, but one day I met a professional artist, John Brookes, who now does most of them and they're a great 11 on my efforts. Recently one of my books was made into a(n) 12 , which was an exciting experience. I didn't write the dialogue between the 13 —other writers did that very well. I visited while they were filming and I sometimes feel like 14 improvement, but in the end I just let them do what they wanted. I must say I was pleased with the book they chose to film, but thought it was a 15 they made so many changes to the story.

Visiting an apple event is a good chance to see,and often taste,a wide variety of apples.To people who are used to the limited choice of apples such as Golden Delicious and Royal Gala in supermarkets,it can be quite an eye opener to see the range of classical apples still in existence,such as Decio which was grown by the Romans.Although it doesn't taste of anything special,it's still worth a try,as is the knobbly(多疙瘩的) Cat's Head which is more of a curiosity than anything else. There are also varieties developed to suit specific local conditions.One of the very best varieties for eating quality is Orleans Reinette,but you'll need a warm,sheltered place with perfect soil to grow it,so it's a pipe dream for most apple lovers who fall for it. At the events,you can meet expert growers and discuss which ones will best suit your conditions,and because these are family affairs, children are well catered for with apple-themed fun and games. Apple Days are being held at all sorts of places with an interest in fruit,including stately gardens and commercial orchards(果园).If you want to have a real orchard experience,try visiting the National Fruit Collection at Brogdale, near Faversham in Kent. 1.What can people do at the apple events? ( ) A.Attend experts' lectures. B.Visit fruit-loving families. C.Plant fruit trees in an orchard. D.Taste many kinds of apples. 3 2.What can we learn about Decio? ( ) A.It is a new kind. B.It has a strange look. C.It is rarely seen now. D.It has a special taste. 3.What does the underlined phrase “a pipe dream” in Paragraph 3 mean? ( ) A.A practical idea. B.A vain hope. C.A brilliant plan. D.A selfish desire. 4.What is the author's purpose in writing the text? ( ) A.To show how to grow apples. B.To introduce an apple festival. C.To help people select apples. D.To promote apple research. Passage 2 When you choose a friend, you should be very careful. A good friend can help you study. You can have fun together and make each other happy. Sometimes you will meet fair-weather friends. They will be with you as long as you have money or luck, but when you are down, they will run away. How do I know when I have found a good friend? I look for certain qualities of character, especially understanding, honesty and reliability(可靠). Above all else, I look for understanding in a friend. A good friend tries to understand how another person is feeling. He is not quick to judge. Instead, he tries to learn from others. He puts himself in the other person's place, and he tries to think of ways to be helpful. He is also a good listener. At the same time, however, a good friend is honest. He does not look for faults(过错) in others. He notices their good points. In short, good friends will be honest to each other and accept each other. Another quality of a friend is reliability. I can always depend on a good friend. If he tells me he will meet me somewhere at a certain time, I can be sure that he will be there. If I need a 4 favor, he will do his best to help me. If I am in trouble, he will not run away from me. There is a fourth quality that makes a friend special. A special friend is someone with whom we can have fun. We should enjoy our lives, and we would enjoy our friendship. That is why I especially like friends who are fun to be with. A good friend likes the same things I like. We share experience and learn from each other. A good friend has a good sense of humor, too. He likes to laugh with me. That is how we share in the joy of being friends. And I know that he is looking for the same quality in me. When I meet someone who is reliable, honest, and understanding, I know I've found a friend! 5.Which of the following qualities the writer thinks is the most important in choosing a friend? ( ) A.Honesty. B.Understanding. C.Reliability. D.Humorous. 6.If you have fair-weather friends, . ( ) A.you will become rich B.you can be sure that you get real friends C.you will be refused when you get into trouble D.they will give you all that they have when you need help 7.Good friends need to . ( ) A.understand each other's feelings B.be helped with money C.always point out each other's mistakes D.have money or luck 8.This passage mainly discusses . ( ) A.the importance of having a friend B.where to choose friends C.how to get along with friends D.the qualities of a friend 5 6 【参考答案】 Ⅰ.[主旨大意]本文是一篇记叙文,讲述了作家从默默无名到成名的故事。 1.B 考查名词辨析。 小说出版前找出版商对于作者来说是一项挑战,因为他们看都不想看一眼。特别是了解 了他的书的内容后,根本就不感兴趣。 2.A 考查名词辨析。根据下文可知,作者书的内容是关于青少年的。 3.B 考查副词辨析。根据第一句他的书出版了,推断出最后其中一位出版商读了他的小说。 4.C 考查形容词短语辨析。根据后半句 and some even say hello when they see me in the street.可知 他非常受青少年的欢迎。 5.D 考查名词辨析。第二段的最后一句 Those things come into my stories.说明文章的前面讲述的就是 他书中故事的来源。 6.D 考查名词辨析。一些作者从他人的书中得到想法(idea)来创作自己的故事。 7.C 考查连词辨析。通过后半句 I keep a notebook and I put down interesting things I notice wherever I go.说明作者的方法和其他作者不一样,所以这里是表示转折。 8.C 考查形容词辨析。 I write full time now and I love it, but…这一转折,可以排除 D,另外从下文也 可得知,作者先手写,修改后再输入电脑,然后还要配图,因此可以排除 A 和 B。 9.B 考查动词辨析。作者先手写,修改后再输入电脑。 10.A 考查动词辨析。通过后半句 I've done some pictures for my books,可见他画画还可以。 11.B 考查名词辨析。通过前半句 I met a professional artist, John Brookes, who now does most of them, 可知这些画在作者的基础之上有了很大的改进。 12.C 考查名词辨析。根据最后一段第三句 I visited while they were filming,可知他的其中一本书被改 编成了电影。 13.C 考查名词辨析。因为是拍成了电影,作者在原著中没有写的应该是角色之间的对话。 14.B 考查动词辨析。根据后半句 but in the end I just let them do what they wanted,说明作者在片场 的时候想要建议他们改进,但是最终还是作罢。 15.C 考查名词辨析。根据前面句子可知他对人们选择这本书改编成电影感到很高兴,but thought …they made so many changes to the story.他们对故事做了太多的改变表示遗憾,shame“令人遗憾的事”。 Ⅱ.Passage 1 [主旨大意]本文是一篇说明文。作者向人们介绍了一个节日——Apple Day。由于这个节日非 常受欢迎,现在已经演变成“苹果月”了。在英国,人们在十月份庆祝该节日,持续大约一个多月的时间。 1.D 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Visiting an apple event is a good chance to see,and often taste,a wide variety of apples.”可知,参加相关庆祝活动的人们可以品尝各种各样的苹果,故选 D。 2.C 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“it can be quite an eye opener to see the range of classical apples 7 still in existence,such as Decio which was grown by the Romans.”可知,an eye opener 为“令人开眼 界的事物”,说明这一物种是不常见的。故选 C。 3.B 词义猜测题。由第三段最后一句可知,口感最好的一种苹果是 Orleans Reinette,但这种苹果需要生活 在温暖、有遮挡物的、土壤极好的环境中,而这些条件对很多此种苹果的爱好者来说是很难实现的。B 项意为 “枉然的,难以实现的”,符合文意。A 项“实际的想法”,C 项“伟大的计划”,D 项“自私的欲望”,均不符合 文意,故正确答案为 B。 4.B 写作意图题。根据第一段“If you are a fruit grower—or would like to become one—take advantage of Apple Day to see what's around.”和最后一段“If you want to have a real orchard experience,try visiting the National Fruit Collection at Brogdale, near Faversham in Kent.”可知,作者向读者介 绍了一个节日——Apple Day,并推荐人们参加这个节日,故选 B。 Passage 2 [主旨大意]这是一篇议论文。文章主要讲了好朋友需要具有的一些品质:理解、诚实和可靠。 5.B 细节理解题。答案定位在第二段中的 Above all else, I look for understanding in a friend.最重 要的是,“我”寻找能理解别人的朋友,由此可知,作者认为在选择朋友方面,最重要的品质就是“理解”,故 选 B。 6.C 推理判断题。答案定位在第一段 Sometimes you will meet fair-weather friends.
