德阳市2019高考英语二轮短文类训练（6） 及答案或解析 阅读理解 Words：352　难度系数：★★　建议用时：8分钟 A few years ago I had an“aha！”moment regarding handwriting.‎ I had in my hand a sheet of paper with handwritten instructions on it for some sort of editorial task.It occurred at first that I did not recognize the handwriting，and then I realized whose it must be.I finally became aware of the fact that I had been working with this colleague for at least a year，maybe two，and yet I did not recognize her handwriting at that point.‎ It was a very important event in the computerization of life—a sign that the informal，friendly communication of people working together in an office had changed from notes in pen to instant messages and emails.There was a time when our workdays were filled with little letters，and we recognized one another’s handwriting the way we knew voices or faces.‎ As a child visiting my father’s office，I was pleased to recognize，in little notes on the desks of his staff，the same handwriting I would see at home in the notes he would leave on the fridge—except that those notes were signed“dad”instead of“RFW”．‎ All this has been on my mind because of the talk about The Rise and Fall of Handwriting，a book by Florey.She shows in her book a deep concern about the fall of handwriting and the failure of schools to teach children to write well，but many others argue that people in a digital age can’t be expected to learn to hold a pen.‎ I don’t buy it.‎ I don’t want to see anyone cut off from the expressive，personal associations that a pen still promotes better than a digital keyboard does.For many a biographer，part of really getting to know their subjects is learning to read their handwriting.‎ What some people advocate is teaching one of the many attractive handwritings based on the handwriting of 16th century Italy.That may sound impossibly grand—as if they want kids to learn to draw by copying classical paintings.However，they have worked in many school systems.‎ ‎1．Why was the author surprised at not recognizing his colleague’s handwriting?‎ A．He had worked with his colleague long enough.‎ B．His colleague’s handwriting was so beautiful.‎ C．His colleague’s handwriting was so terrible.‎ D．He still had a lot of work to do.‎ 解析：选A。细节理解题。由第二段最后一句可知，作者对不能认出和自己一起工作了很长时间的同事的笔迹感到惊讶。‎ ‎2．People working together in an office used to ________.‎ A．talk more about handwriting B．take more notes on workdays C．know better one another’s handwriting D．communicate better with one another 解析：选C。推理判断题。由第三段中的“There was a time when...voice or faces.”可知，过去一起工作的人们通常能互相了解对方的笔迹。‎ ‎3．The author’s father wrote notes in pen ________.‎ A．to both his family and his staff B．to his family in small letters C．to his family on the fridge D．to his staff on the desk 解析：选A。细节理解题。由第四段中的“I was pleased to recognize...his staff，the same handwriting I would see at home...”可知，作者的父亲常用手写便条和家人及员工交流。‎ ‎4．We can learn from the passage that the author ________.‎ A．thinks it impossible to teach handwriting B．does not want to lose handwriting C．puts the blame on the computer D．does not agree with Florey 解析：选B。意图判断题。文章中大量的信息，特别是倒数第二段中的“I don’t want to see...a digital keyboard does.”表明，作者不想让手写字消失。‎ ‎*************************************************************结束 ‎（2019·四川卷）完形填空 I truly feel that my mother led me here,to Morzaine,and to my future as happy wife and bussinesswoman.When Mum ‎21 in October 2019,I was cook..

Neither the limits nor her attitude 36 me, a 9-year-old Jewish girl growing up in Berlin in the 1950s. I needed those visits. The books were filled with stories in which, however 37 things seemed, everything 38 well in the end, justice, rewarding bravery, and wisdom—a striking 39 to my everyday experiences. ‎ Thirty years later, I, a recent immigrant to the US with a daughter aged 13, stood in front of another librarian.
