2019译林牛津版高考英语一轮训练选:模块2U1含答案
一、阅读理解。
This month, the singing competition, American Idol, will come to an end. For years, the popular show was a platform for rising artists. With a group of famous judges and a wide range of talents, it is clear that the competitive atmosphere of American Idol will remain unrivaled by any other show. After all, its success has been "unmatched in broadcasting history."
American Idol came from the British series Pop Idol. Through an application, contestants came into the competition and thereafter, were chosen to audition(试音)for the show. Each candidate would have to perform a piece to the judges, and participate in a strict selection process. Not only would contestants have to sing in groups, they were sometimes tasked to perform pieces without musical instruments. At the end of this stage, only 24 o 36 artists were chosen to enter the semi-final stage. Soon, the fate of the contestants would be decided by the public. During the candidate’s live performance, a free telephone number was displayed on the screen for viewers to dial, to cast their vote. At the end of the night, only 13 lucky singers would be left in the competition; by the finals, only 8 contestants would remain. Finally, a runner-up(亚军)and a winner were announced every season. Though only the winner would receive a million dollar reward and a significant record deal, other contestants would have had a chance to be known by the public. As the famous producer Simon Cowell once said, "The point of the show is not to be mean to loser, but to find a winner."
As the final season of the program begins, past winners will return to the stage to say goodbye and a new winner will be announced. With amazing performances and an excellent cast of singers, the show’s conclusion will leave audiences nostalgic(怀旧的), but more satisfied than ever.

四、七选五。
Listening to others requires entering actively and imaginatively into the situation and trying to understand a frame of reference different from your own,and yet so many of us don't listen properly as we should.__1__ It means trying to see the problem the way the speaker sees it.
Here are some ways to become a better listener.
__2__ Make sure you actually hear fully what your friend is saying,and you can't cut your friend off verbally carelessly.While you might intend to help move the conversation along,your friend might feel as if what he has said need to be
continually talked over or sound anything but interesting.
Nod to encourage the conversation along.A better option to let your friend know you're interested in what he says is just to nod along from time to time.Sometimes you nod along but then start thinking about something unrelated to what he could say.__3__
Tune out background noise.If you're easily distracted by laughter,glasses clinking,children crying,you might need to work extra hard to focus only on your friend.__4__ Don't hesitate to tell them that the background noises are getting in the way.If you can't focus,try moving to another area.
No texting or looking at your phone!__5__ For you see,when you're sitting in front of someone,he is the most important person in your world at that moment.
A.Practice silence when someone else is talking.
B.If necessary,ask your friend to repeat himself.
C.Listening is more than just sitting silently while someone else talks.
D.Whoever is calling or texting can wait until you're done with your conversation.
E.Questions you raise must clearly be motivated by curiosity about the speaker's views.
F.In this case, try to push away your thoughts until you're absorbed in what your friend is saying.
G.Remembering ideas from previous conversations proves that your attention is kept and encourages your friend to continue.
【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了如何成为一位优秀的倾听者。
难句分析:While you might intend to help move the conversation along,your friend might feel as if what he has said need to be continually talked over or sound anything but interesting.(第三段最后一句)
译文:虽然或许你打算帮助让谈话继续,但是你的朋友也许会感觉好像他所说的要不断地被讨论或者听起来根本是无趣的。
词汇积累:verbally adv.口头上 option n.选择 distract v.使分心
1.C 根据下一句“It means trying to see the problem the way the speaker sees
it.”可知,C项“倾听不仅仅是别人讲话时安静地坐在那里”与下文联系密切,且C项中的“Listening”与下一句中的“It”相照应。故选C。
2.A 根据下文内容可知,本段主要说明在别人讲话时,不要打扰对方。A项“在别人讲话时,练习沉默”能够引起下文内容,符合语境。故选A。
3.F 本段主要讲述了在别人讲话时,你应不时地点点头,让你的朋友知道你对他所说的感兴趣。所以当你有时点头却心不在焉时,要赶快把注意力转回到你朋友所说的话中。故选F。
4.B 下文提到,要毫不犹豫地告诉你的朋友噪音妨碍了你,由此推断出空格处应指如果受到了噪音的妨碍,可以请求朋友重复一遍。故选B。
5.D 根据“No texting or looking at your phone!”可知,D项“无论谁的电话或者短信都可以等到你的谈话结束再回复”符合本段内容。故选D。
