‎2019译林牛津高考英语一轮优练题：模块5U2及答案 一、阅读理解。‎ A recent survey in the United States showed that the average family spent more money on its pets than on its children. Although rather shocking, it should not surprise anyone who has seen the doggy parlours(客厅) where loved pets rest. Are Americans unique in treating their little friends in this way? No, the English, too, pay more attention to their pets.‎ This can clearly be seen when we look at pet foods，which often contain more vitamins than human food. They certainly cost much. Last year the British public spent two hundred million pounds on pet food alone, to say nothing of veterinary bills or animal furniture. It is difficult not to feel angry about this when considering what the same amount could do for victims of starvation and poverty, so it’s not unusual for me to get hot under collar when I read an old man left all his money to his dog instead of his children.‎ There are a variety of reasons why I find pets-raising alarming. They cause physical problems. An example of this is New York where they have great difficulty getting rid of the mess that dogs leave on the streets. Many people find this funny, but in a number of large cities it is a major problem. Animals can cause disease, too. It is the threat of babies — a disease with no known cure.‎ Another problem is the carelessness of pet owners. Most little children want a dog or a cat，and they continually push their mothers and fathers until they get one. It is only when the ＂sweet little thing＂ has been brought home that the parents realize how much time and money must be spent on ＂Rover＂ or ＂Bonzo＂. Then they just abandon it. As a result, they are allowed to run free. English farmers lose hundreds of sheep a year, killed by someone’s pet and you must have read of children being hurt by some pets of their own.‎ Lastly, I would only suggest that we have got our priorities wrong and that something should be done about it. In my view, it’s time we stopped being sentimental about pets. I can see no reason why we should get upset when animals are cut up for medical experiments. This will lead us to discovering cures for serious human diseases, then I say,＂keep cutting!＂‎ ‎1. The doggy parlours are mentioned in the 1st paragraph to show ________. ‎ A. what costly lives the pets are living B. where Americans keep their pets C. why children love their pets so much D. how much pets depend on their masters ‎2. In the second paragraph ＂to get hot under the collar＂ probably means ________. ‎ A. getting quite hot B. becoming excited C. feeling extremely angry D. receiving a fashionable shirt ‎3. According to the author, in which field can animals be most useful?‎ A. Food. B. Sports. ‎ C. Entertainment. D. Medicine.‎ ‎4. What is the author’s attitude towards pets-raising?‎ A. Sympathetic. B. Opposed.‎ C. Pitiful. D. Supportive.‎ ‎【文章大意】这是一篇议论文。作者通过介绍饲养宠物存在的种种问题(譬如饲养成本昂贵、宠物致人受伤、传染疾病等)，表达了自己反对饲养宠物，而是应当将宠物用于贡献人类医学实验的观点。‎ ‎1. A　【解析】推理判断题。＂the doggy parlours＂所在的句子就是为了进一步阐释第一句＂A recent survey in the United States showed that the average family spent more money on its pets than on its children.＂，即如今人们在饲养宠物上花销巨大的现状。故答案为A。‎ ‎3. D　【解析】推理判断题。从本文的最后两句＂I can see no reason why we should get upset...This will lead us to discovering cures for serious human diseases...＂可知作者认为宠物在人类医学领域可以起着有益的作用。因此答案为D。‎ ‎4. B　【解析】观点态度题。文章前面介绍了成本昂贵、传染疾病等饲养宠物的危害，后面又提到应把宠物用于贡献人类医学领域中去，故而可以看出作者对于饲养宠物的做法持反对态度。因此答案为B。‎ 二、单项选择。‎ ‎1.For an artist who has no lack of passion and great courage to overcome any difficulty，inspirations of his art will never _______.‎ A. break out B. run out C. work out D. pull out ‎【答案】B ‎【解析】run out 用完，耗尽，符合句意。break out 爆发；work out 计算，解决；pull out 驶出，脱离。句意：‎ 对于一个不缺少激情和有勇气战胜任何困难的艺术家来说，他的艺术灵感将永远不会枯竭。‎ ‎2.Meeting again by chance, Lucy and Amy are delighted to _______ the friendship where it left out years ago.‎ A. set up B. build up C. bring up D. pick up ‎【答案】D ‎【解析】set up 成立，建立；build up 逐步建立，增进；bring up 养育，培养；pick up 拾起，偶然学到，接收到，中途搭车，和好如初。pick up the friendship 意为“重拾友谊”，根据“where it left out years ago”(意为“在几年前遗落的地方(重拾友谊)”)，说明这里填 build up(建立友谊)不合适。句意：‎ 碰巧又见面了，露西和艾米高兴地在她们数年前中断友谊的地方重拾友谊(即：中断的友谊仍可以重新开始)。‎ ‎3.It was never clear _______ the man hadn’t reported the accident sooner.‎ A. that B. how C. when D. why ‎【答案】D ‎【解析】 句中的 it 是形式主语， 真正的主语是“______ the man hadn’t reported the accident sooner.”根据句意，原句要表达的是“为什么这个老人没有立马报案这件事还未查明。 ”‎ ‎4.We are committed to creating a world free from the homeless and the hopeless, a world _______ each and every comer is a true paradise.‎ A. that B. which C. of which D. from where ‎【答案】C ‎【解析】...of which 实际上就=whose...。句意：我们致力于创造一个没有无家可归者和无望者的世界，一个其中每一个角落都是真正天堂的世界。‎ ‎5.Alice hasn’t turned up so far. _______ if she is absent today?
