‎2014届高考英语二轮最新冲刺专题训练:阅读理解9‎ 第5组 阅读理解 ‎(A)‎ In the kitchen of my mother’s houses there has always been a wooden stand(木架)with a small notepad(记事本)and a hole for a pencil. ‎ I’m looking for paper on which to note down the name of a book I am recommending to my mother. Over forty years since my earliest memories of the kitchen pad and pencil, five houses later, the current paper and pencil look the same as they always did. Surely it can’t be the same pencil? The pad is more modern, but the wooden stand is definitely the original one. ‎ ‎“I’m just amazed you still have the same stand for holding the pad and pencil after all these years.” I say to her, walking bank into the living-room with a sheet of paper and the pencil. “You still use a pencil. Can’t you afford a pen?” ‎ My mother replies a little sharply. “It works perfectly well. I’ve always kept the stand in the kitchen. I never knew when I might want to note down an idea, and I was always in the kitchen in these days.” ‎ Immediately I can picture her, hair wild, blue housecoat covered in flour, a wooden spoon in one hand, the pencil in the other, her mouth moving silently. My mother smiles and says, “One day I was cooking and watching baby Pauline, and I had a brilliant thought, but the stand was empty. One of the children must have taken the paper. So I just picked up the breadboard and wrote it all down on the back. It turned out to be a real breakthrough for solving the mathematical problem I was working on.” ‎ This story—which happened before I was born—reminds me how extraordinary my mother was, and is, as a gifted mathematician. I feel embarrassed that I complain about not having enough child-free time to work. Later, when my mother is in the bathroom, I go into her kitchen and turn over the breadboards. Sure enough, on the back of the smallest one, are some penciled marks I recognize as mathematics. Those ‎ symbols have traveled unaffected through fifty years, rooted in the soil of a cheap wooden breadboard, invisible(看不到的)exhibits at every meal.‎ ‎( ) 1. Why has the author’s mother always kept the notepad and pencil in the kitchen?‎ A. To leave messages. ‎ B. To list her everyday tasks.‎ C. To note down maths problems. ‎ D. To write down a flash of inspiration. ‎ ‎( ) 2. What is the author’s original opinion about the wooden stand? ‎ A. It has great value for the family. ‎ B.

The author feels embarrassed for _________ ‎ A. blaming her mother wrongly. ‎ B. giving her mother a lot of trouble. ‎ C. not making good use of time as her mother did. ‎ D. not making any breakthrough in her field.‎ ‎( ) 4. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?‎ A .The mother is successful in her career. ‎ B. The family members like traveling. ‎ C. The author had little time to play when young. ‎ D. The marks on the breadboard have disappeared. ‎ ‎( ) 5. In the author’s mind ,her mother is____‎ A. strange in behavior. ‎ B. keen on her research. ‎ C. fond of collecting old things. ‎ D. careless about her appearance.‎ 本篇文章为记叙文。主要讲述“我”的母亲总是习惯实用厨房里的记事本和铅笔。50年过去了,换了 5‎ ‎ 所房子,可母亲的习惯没有改变,却更热衷于此。我突然意识到母亲是位天才的数学家。‎ ‎46. D细节理解题。 根据第四段第三句 never knew when I might want to note down an idea, “and I was always in the kitchen in those days”可知作者母亲随时在存放的记事本上记录自己的想法,故选 D 项。‎ ‎47. B 推理判断题。根据第三段作者说的“I’m just amazed you still have the same stand for holding the pad and pencil after all these years.”“Can’t you afford a pen”可知作者态度,是在反问母亲,想让母亲用更好的笔和记事本,故选B ‎48. C 细节理解题,根据第五段第二句“I fell embarrassed that T complain about not having enough child-free time to work”可判断选C项 ‎49. A 推理判断题。根据最后一段内容,可知我意识到母亲的成功,她是天才数学家,母亲充分利用了厨房里的记事本写下数学,以及她对我的影响,由此判断选A ‎50. B细节理解题。根据第五段第二句母亲的话““One day I was cooking and watching baby …It turned out to be a real breakthrough for solving the mathematical problem I was working on.”可知,作者的母亲很热衷于自己的发现,由此判断选B 阅读理解-----(B)‎ Christopher Thomas, 27, was a writer by night and a teacher by day when he noticed he was always tired and was losing weight fast. Diagnosed with diabetes(糖尿病), Thomas would need to inject himself with insulin(胰岛素) three times a day for the rest of his life or risk nerve damage, blindness, and even death. And if that weren't bad enough, he had no health insurance. ‎ After a month of feeling upset, Thomas decided he'd better find a way to fight back. He left Canton, Michigan for New York, got a job waiting tables, nicknamed himself the Diabetic Rock star, and created diabeticrockstar.com, a free online community for diabetics and their loved ones—a place where over 1,100 people share personal stories, information, and resources. ‎ Jason Swencki’s son, Kody, was diagnosed with type diabetes at six. Father and son visit the online children's forums(论坛) together most evenings. "Kody gets so ‎ excited, writing to kids from all over," says Swencki, one of the site's volunteers. "They know what he's going through, so he doesn't feel alone." Kody is anything but alone. ‎ Diabetes is now the seventh leading cause of death in the United States, with 24 million diagnosed cases. And more people are being diagnosed at younger ages. ‎ These days, Thomas's main focus is his charity(慈善机构), Fight It, which provides medicines and supplies to people—225 to date—who can't afford a diabetic's huge expenses. Fight-it.org has raised about $23,000—in products and in cash. In May, Thomas will hold the first annual Diabetic Rocks tar Festival in the Caribbean.‎ ‎ Even with a staff of 22 volunteers, Thomas often devotes up to 50 hours a week to his cause, while still doing his full-time job waiting tables. "Of the diabetes charities out there, most are putting money into finding a cure," says Bentley Gubar, one of Rock star's original members. "But Christopher is the only person I know saying people need help now." ‎ ‎( ) 1. Which of the following is true of Christopher Thomas? ‎ A. He needs to go to the doctor every day. ‎ B.

It is often tempting to hurry the child beyond his natural learning rate, but this can set up dangerous feelings of failure and states of worry in the child. This might happen at any stage. A baby might be forced to use a toilet too early, a young child might be encouraged to learn to read before he knows the meaning of the words he reads. On the other hand, though, if a child is left alone too much, or without any learning opportunities, he loses his natural enthusiasm for life and his desire to find out new things for himself.‎ ‎ Parents vary greatly in their degree of strictness towards their children. Some may be especially strict in money matters. Others are severe (严格的) over time of coming home at night or punctuality for meals. In general, the controls represent the needs of the parents and the values of the community as much as the child's own happiness.‎ ‎ As regards the development of moral standards in the growing child, consistency is very important in parental teaching. To forbid a thing one day and excuse it the next is no foundation for morality (道德). Also, parents should realize that "example is better than precept". If they are not sincere and do not practice what they preach (说教), their children may grow confused when they grow old enough to think for themselves, and realize they have been to some extent fooled.‎ ‎ A sudden awareness of a marked difference between their parents' principles and their morals can be a dangerous disappointment.‎ ‎6. Eagerly watching the child’s acquisition of new skills, _________________.‎ ‎ A. should be avoided ‎ B. is universal among parents ‎ C. sets up dangerous states of worry in the child ‎ D. will make the child lose interest in learning new things ‎7. In the process of children’s learning new skills, parents _________________.‎ ‎ A. should encourage them to read before they know the meaning of the words they read ‎ B. should expect a lot of the children ‎ C. should achieve a balance between pushing them too hard and leaving them on their own ‎ D. should create as many learning opportunities as possible ‎8 The second paragraph mainly tells us that _________________.‎ ‎ A. parents should be strict with their children ‎ B. parental controls reflect only the values of the community ‎ C. parental restrictions vary, and are not always for the benefit of the children alone ‎ D. it’s parents’ and society’s duty to control the children ‎9. The word “precept” in Paragraph 3 probably means “_________________”.‎ ‎ A. opinion B. punishment C. behavior D. instruction ‎10. In terms of moral matters, parents should _____________________.‎ ‎ A. follow the rules themselves ‎ B. be aware of the huge difference between adults and children ‎ C. forbid their children to follow hook teachings ‎ D. always ensure the security of their children ‎ [全解全析] BCCCD 在孩子成长过程中,父母不能拔苗助长。父母对孩子的“严”与“松”之间应有一个恰 当的度。关于道德教育问题,父母应该以身作则,带头遵循,“榜样比说教更有力”。‎ B 推理判断题。根据文章第一自然段开头In bringing up children,every parent watches ‎ eagerly the child's acquisition of each new skill,既然是每位父母都会这样做,那么这种做法在 父母中就是普遍的,故选B。根据文章第一自然段第二句,选项C。sets up dangerous states ‎ of ‎ worry in the child是由hurry the child beyond his natural learning rate引起的,“迫不及待地要 求孩子做超出其自然成长速度的事情”和“热切地观察孩子学会每一项新技能”显然不是一 回事,作者对后者没有否定之意,所以A不对。根据文章第一自然段末句,选项取D。will ‎ make him lose interest in learning new things是由a child is left alone too much, or without any ‎ learning opportunities引起的。故D也不合文意。‎ C 推理判断题。文章第一自然段第二句It is often tempting to hurry the child beyond his ‎ natural learning rate,but this can set Up dangerous feelings of failure and states of worry in the ‎ child,说明在孩子成长过程中,父母不能拔苗助长。文章第一段末句又说:On the other hand,‎ though,if a child is left alone too much,or without any learning opportunities,he loses his natural ‎ enthusiasm for life and his desire to find out new things for himself,说明对孩子太放任自流同样 不利。根据这两方面,应选C,父母对孩子的“严”与“松”之间应有一个恰当的度。‎ C 主旨大意题。文章第二自然段的大意是:“父母对孩子的严格程度有很大的不同”。‎ D 词义推测题.四个选项的意思分别是:A. opinion (观点);B. punishment(惩罚);C. ‎ bebaviour(行为);D.instruction(说教,源于instruct)。根据文章第三段第三,四句Also,parents ‎ should realize that “example is better than precept”.If they are not sincere and do not practice ‎ what they preach(说教)…可以推测,precept应表达与example对立的意思,且与preach是同 义词,引语的意思是“榜样比说教更有力”,故选项D为最佳选项。‎ ‎35.A 推理判断题.根据文章第三自然段第四句,再根据文章最后一段,可以得出结论,‎ 关于道德教育问题,父母应该以身作则,带头遵循,(参见上一小题之解析),故选A。‎ 阅读理解---------C Three Central Texas men were honored with the Texas Department of Public Safety's Director's Award in a Tuesday morning ceremony for their heroism in saving the victims of a serious twocar accident.‎ The accident occurred on March 25 when a vehicle lost control while traveling on rainsoaked State Highway 6 near Baylor Camp Road. It ran into an oncoming vehicle, leaving the occupants trapped inside as both vehicles burst into flames.‎ Bonge was the first on the scene and heard children screaming. He broke through a back window and pulled Mallory Smith, 10, and her sister, Megan Smith, 9, from the wreckage.‎ The girl's mother, Beckie Smith, was not with them at the time of the wreck, as they were traveling with their body sitter, Lisa Bowbin.‎ Beckie Smith still remembers the sickening feeling she had upon receiving the call informing her of the wreck and the despair as she drove to the scene.‎ Bozeman‎ and Clemmons arrived shortly after Bonge and helped rescue the other victims and attempted to put out the fires.‎ ‎“I was nervous,”Bozeman said. “I don't feel like I'm a hero. I was just doing what anyone should do in that situation. I hope someone would do the same for me.”‎ Everyone at the accident made it out alive, with the victims suffering from nonlifethreatening injuries. Mallory Smith broke both femurs, and Megan had neck and back injuries. Bowbin is still recovering from a broken pelvis, ankle and foot.‎ The rescuers also were taken to the hospital and treated for cuts and smoke breathing, Bonge said.‎ In addition, Bozeman got to meet accident victim Anthony Russo in the hospital after the accident, where Russo presented him with a glass frame inscribed with “Thank you”, Bozeman said. Those involved in that fateful encounter on Highway 6 credited God blessing for bringing them together.‎ ‎“Whatever the circumstances, Tuesday's ceremony provided a time to be grateful for those who put their lives on the line for the lives of complete strangers,”Beckie Smith said,“We're calling it The Miracle on Highway 6.”‎ ‎11.What's the main idea of the passage?‎ A.Three persons were awarded for rescuing victims in a car accident.‎ B.Three ordinary people were regarded as great heroes.‎ C.Several victims were carried to safety from the burning cars.‎ D.A car accident occurred on rainsoaked State Highway 6.‎ ‎12.Who saved Megan Smith from the damaged car?‎ A.Clemmons.

He broke through a back window and pulled Mallory Smith, 10, and her sister, Megan Smith, 9, from the wreckage.”可知。‎ 答案:B 观点态度题。从文章第七段中博兹曼(Bozeman)说的话可知,他是一个比较谦虚的人。‎ 答案:A 正误判断题。从第八段“with the victims suffering from nonlifethreatening injuries.”可知A项符合题意。‎ 答案:C 推理判断题。从最后一段“Tuesday's ceremony provided a time to be grateful for those who put their lives on the line for the lives of complete strangers”可知。‎
