德阳市2019高考英语二轮短文类训练（12） 及答案或解析 阅读理解 ‎ So much to do, so little time. So much infonnation, so little time to read it. In this age there is more information than ever before. There is not enough time to read everything wewant to read. However, you can consume more information in shorter time through speed-reading. This article will not makeyou read 3,000 words per minute, but it will show you how to increase your speed significantly. You will also learn the basictechniques of speed-reading, along with the dos and don' ts of speed-reading.‎ ‎ When you first learned to read, you would say the word out loud and sound it out. Then you might whisper the word because people can become annoyed when you read aloud. The stage you are now at is saying the word in your head. Most people tend to read this way. Saying the word in your head will cut your reading speed tremendously (极大地).‎ ‎ How do you calculate your reading speed? The speed is measured by how many words per minute you can read. Get some reading material, preferably a book. Find out how many words are on the page. Time yourself for one minute. Start your timer and start reading. When the timer beeps, stop. If you counted 500 words on the page and you read half of the page, and then you are probably reading at 250 words per minute.‎ ‎ The first thing about speed-reading is looking at the word and recognizing it. Don't say the word in your mind, just look at it and recognize its importance. Later you will recognize clumps of four words or more to increase your speed. This is the first and most important step in speed-reading. ‎ ‎ The next step is technique. As with any other skill, speedreading requires technique. You should first be sitting up straight with your book flat on a horizontal (水平的) surface, such as a table or desk. Next,you should be able to see the entire page. This is necessary if you want to recognize clumps of words. Lastly, you should be focused. It' s hard to read with a lot of noise. Find a quiet place to read. This will help your understanding of the text.‎ ‎ You need something to guide your eyes while reading. That's right, you should use your hand. Remember when you were little, you would read using your finger. That is a great technique, only now you're using your hand to underline each line. Move your finger smoothly across the page. No ‎ need to go rush, start out slow. Keep your eyes focused on the words as you recognize them while using your hand as a guide. This will increase your'speed.‎ The third step is practice. Practice makes perfect. Set time intervals (间歇). Read using different techniques, but make sure you understand what you are reading. ‎ ‎1. Which of the following statements is true according to the text?‎ ‎ A. Now there is limited information than ever before.‎ ‎ B. Now conditions ask people to use less time to know more information.‎ ‎ C. Now people can read what they like.‎ ‎ D. The less you read, the more time you will spend. ‎ 答案：B 指导：我们这个时代的信息比任何时候都多。在这样的时代里，人们只有提高阅读能力，加快阅读速度，花较少的时间，获得较多的信息。‎ ‎2. What is the subject discussed in the text?‎ ‎ A. What speed-reading is.‎ ‎ B. Why we need speed-reading.‎ ‎ C. Now it is much information time.‎ ‎ D. People should practise speed-reading in different kinds of ways. ‎ 答案：A 指导：本文所谈及的是快速阅读，包括为什么要快速阅读、快速阅读速度的测定和怎样进行快速阅读。‎ ‎3. The underlined sentence "you should be focused'in the fifth paragraph means that ‎ A. a person should devote his attention to it while reading ‎ B. your feelings will be hurt while reading ‎ C. a person should smooth away difficulties while he reads ‎ D. you should pay attention to your faults while you are reading ‎ 答案：A 指导：从第五段中可以看出，只有集中精力才能有效地进行阅读。有许多噪音很难进行阅读。‎ ‎************************************************************结束 ‎.完形填空 Words：289　难度系数：★★★　建议用时：15分钟 Recently I’ve completed my college degree.The __1__ course was sociology and the last project was called “smile”，which asked us to go out and smile at three people and__2__ their reactions.‎ It was freezing.My husband and I went out to McDonald’s.We were standing in line，waiting to be__3__，when all of a sudden everyone around us began to __4__away from their position.‎ As I turned around I smelled a __5__“dirty body”smell，and there standing behind me were two poor__6__ men.As I looked down at the short gentleman__7__to me，he was smiling and his beautiful sky blue eyes searched for__8__.‎ To sit in the restaurant and __9__up，they had to buy something.When the young lady at the counter asked what they wanted，he said coffee because that was all they could__10__.‎ I smiled and asked the lady for two more breakfast meals on two __11__ plates.I then walked around the corner to the table that the men had chosen as a __12__spot.‎ I put the plates on the table and__13__the blueeyed gentleman’s cold hands with my hands.With tears in his eyes，he said，“Thank you.”I noticed all the __14__in the restaurant were set on me.My husband __15__at me and gave me a big hug.‎ I returned to college and handed in a paper about this story as my__16__to the instructor.She read it and then asked，“Can I __17__this? ”I nodded.Just at that time I realized in my own way I had __18__ the people at McDonald’s，my husband，the instructor，and every soul that shared the classroom.I __19__with one of the biggest lessons I would ever learnunconditional acceptance.We shouldn’t __20__people based on their appearance.‎ ‎【解题导语】　本文作者在麦当劳吃饭时给两个流浪汉买了早餐，受到众人关注。作者把这次经历作为研究课题交给导师，得到了导师的肯定。通过这个故事作者告诉我们：不要以貌取人。‎ ‎1．A.last　　　　　　　　 B．first C．hardest D．easiest 解析：选A。根据首句“Recently I’ve completed my college degree.”可知，“我”要完成最后一门课程，所以选last。‎ ‎2．A.recognize B．record C．describe D．imagine 解析：选B。对三个人微笑并记录他们的反应。‎ ‎3．A.paid B．treated C．served D．charged 解析：选C。由“...went out to McDonald’s.We were standing in line，waiting...”可知，应是等候served(服务)。‎ ‎4．A.throw B．give C．take D．back 解析：选D。back 在此处是动词，意思是“后退”，与下文“I smelled a ____5____‘dirty body’ smell”照应。‎ ‎5．A.horrible B．curious C．dull D．familiar 解析：选A。“dirty body”smell肯定是horrible(讨厌的)。‎ ‎6．A.old B．healthy C．homeless D．disabled 解析：选C。根据下文可知他们是到麦当劳避寒的，所以应该是homeless(无家可归的)。‎ ‎7．A.close B．due C．superior D．similar 解析：选A。close to意为“接近”，是形容词短语作gentleman的后置定语，符合上下文的语境。‎ ‎8．A.assistance B．acceptance C．advice D．admission 解析：选B。本题应选acceptance(接受)，20空前面一句也有暗示。‎ ‎9．A.break B．pick C．cheer D．warm 解析：选D。第二段第一句“It was freezing”暗示出他们到麦当劳的目的是warm up(取暖)。‎ ‎10．A.afford B．enjoy C．spend D．drink 解析：选A。...they had to buy something 暗示本空应该用afford(买得起)。afford常与情态动词can/could连用；spend 的直接宾语是金钱、时间等。‎ ‎11．A.big B．separate C．beautiful D．special 解析：选B。two more breakfast meals自然是分别装在两个不同的盘子里，所以用separate(单独的，分开的)。‎ ‎12．A.resting B．eating C．visiting D．watching 解析：选A。根据上下文可知，他们已经点了咖啡，并选了座位当作a resting spot(休息处)。‎ ‎13．A.shook B．shared C．clapped D．covered 解析：选D。cover one’s hands with one’s hands意为“用某人的手盖住另一个人的手”，符合语境。而shake的搭配为shake one’s hand，shake hands with sb.。‎ ‎14．A.customers B．hands C．eyes D．sounds 解析：选C。set eyes on sb.为固定短语，意为“看见，注意到”，此处用的是被动语态。‎ ‎15．A.laughed B．smiled C．shouted D．stared 解析：选B。由本句中的gave me a big hug可以推出此处用smiled。‎ ‎16．A.homework B．project C．assignment D．achievement 解析：选B。project专题研究，文章第一段的“the last project”有暗示。‎ ‎17．A.share B．spare C．care D．support 解析：选A。“我能(和大家)分享你的故事吗？”share“(和某人)分享，共享”，符合语境。‎ ‎18．A.involved B．contacted C．investigated D．touched 解析：选D。touch“(使)感动”，符合语境。‎ ‎19．A.graduated B．accomplished C．disappeared D．succeeded 解析：选A。根据文章的第一句“Recently I’ve completed my college degree.”可知，这里用graduated。‎ ‎20．A.estimate B．guarantee C．judge D．approach 解析：选C。我们不要以貌取人。judge“判断”，符合语境。‎ ‎************************************************************结束短文填空 Everyone gathered around and Paddy read out loud, slowly, his tone growing sadder and sadder. The little headline said: BOXER RECEIVES LIFF SENTENCE.‎ Frank Cleary, aged 26, professional boxer, was today found guilty of the murder of Albert Cumming, aged 32, laborer, last July. The jury (陪审团) reached its decision after only ten minutes, recommending the most severe punishment to the court. It was, said the judge, a simple case. Cumming and Cleary had quarreled violently at the Harbour Hotel on July 23rd and police saw Cleary kicking at the head of the unconscious Cumming. When arrested, Cleary was drunk but clear-thinking.‎ Cleary was sentenced to life imprisonment with hard labour. Asked if he had anything to say, Cleary answered, “Just don't tell my mother.”‎ ‎“It happened over three years ago,” Paddy said helplessly.  No one answered him or moved, for no one knew what to do. “Just don't tell my mother,” said Fee numbly. “And no one did! Oh,‎ ‎ God! My poor, poor Frank!”‎ Paddy wiped the tears from his face and said.  “Fee , pack your things. We'll go to see him.”‎ She half-rose before sinking back, her eyes in her small white face stared as if dead. “I can't go,” she said without a hint of pain, yet making everyone feel that the pain was there. “It would kill him to see me. I know him so well—his pride, his ambition. Let him bear the shame alone, it's what he wants. We've got to help him keep his secret. What good will it do him to see us?”‎ Paddy was still weeping, not for Frank, but for the life which had gone from Fee's face, for the dying in her eyes. Frank had always brought bitterness and misfortune, always stood between Fee and himself. He was the cause of her withdrawal from his heart and the hearts of his children. Every time it looked as if there might be happiness for Fee, Frank took it away. But Paddy's love for her was as deep and impossible to wipe out as hers was for Frank.‎ So he said. “Well, Fee, we won't go. But we must make sure he is taken care of. How about if I write to Father Jones and ask him to look out for Frank?” ‎ The eyes didn't liven, but a faint pink stole into her cheeks. “Yes, Paddy, do that. Only make sure he knows not to tell Frank we found out. Perhaps it would ease Frank to think for certain that we don't know.”‎ ‎10. Which of the following is true according to the passage?‎ A. Frank was found guilty of murder because he was a professional boxer.‎ B. The family didn't find out what happened to Frank until three years later.‎ C. The jury and the judge disagreed on whether Frank had committed murder.‎ D. Frank didn't want his family to find out what happened because Paddy disliked him.‎ ‎11. Paddy cried because he thought ______________.‎ A. Frank did kill someone and deserved the punishment B. Frank should have told Fee what had happened C. what had happened to Frank was killing Fee D. Frank had always been a man of bad moral character ‎12. “She half-rose before sinking back…” (in Paragraph 6) shows that______________.‎ A. Fee was so heart-broken that she could hardly stand up B. Fee didn't want to upset Paddy by visiting Frank C. Fee couldn't leave her family to go to see Frank D. Fee struggled between wanting to see Frank and respecting his wish ‎13. Which of the following suggests that Fee was deeply shocked by what happened to Frank?‎ A. “Her eyes in her small white face stared as if dead.”‎ B. “Let him bear the shame alone, it’s what he wants.”‎ C. “Every time it looked as if there might be happiness for Fee, Frank took it away.”‎ D. “The eyes didn’t liven, but a faint pink stole into her cheeks.”‎ ‎14. What is Fee's probable relationship with Frank and Paddy?‎ A. Son and brother. ‎ B. Son and husband.‎ C. Brother and lover. ‎ D. Lover and husband.‎ 参考答案 10-14 BCDAB ‎******************************************************结束 ‎（辽宁卷）完形填空 ‎36. A. cousin B. daughter C. grandson D. nephew ‎ 37.
