[高考拆组训练] 阅读理解组块专练——练速度 (限时：30 分钟) Ⅰ.阅读理解 A (2019·绍兴高级中学高三二模)Gwendolyn Brooks was the first African American to win a Pulitzer Prize for Literature. Gwendolyn Brooks wrote hundreds of poems during her lifetime. She had more than 20 books published. She was known around the world for using poetry to increase understanding about black culture in America. Her poems described conditions among the poor, racial inequality and drug use in the black community. She also wrote poems about the struggles of black women. But her skill was more than her ability to write about struggling black people. She was an expert at the language of poetry. She combined traditional European poetry styles with the African American experience. In her early poetry, Gwendolyn Brooks wrote about the South Side of Chicago. The South Side of Chicago is where many black people live. In her poems, the South Side is called Bronzeville. It was “A Street in Bronzeville” that gained the attention of literary experts in 1945. Critics praised her poetic skill and her powerful descriptions about the black experience during the time. The Bronzeville poems were her first published collection. In 1950, Gwendolyn Brooks became the first African American to win the Pulitzer Prize for Literature. She won the prize for her second book of poems called “Annie Allen”. “Annie Allen” is a collection of poetry about the life of a Bronzeville girl as a daughter, a wife and mother. She experiences loneliness, loss, death and being poor. Ms. Brooks said that winning the prize changed her life. Her next work was a novel written in 1953 called “Maud Martha”. “Maud Martha” received little notice when it was first published. But now it is considered an important work by some critics. Its main ideas about the difficult life of many women are popular among female writers today. In some of her poems, Gwendolyn Brooks described how what people see in life is affected by who they are. One example is this poem, “Corners on the Curving Sky”． By the end of the 1960s, Gwendolyn Brooks's poetry expanded from the everyday experiences of people in Bronzeville. She wrote about a wider world and dealt with important political issues. 语篇解读：本文主要介绍了非裔美国女诗人Gwendolyn Brooks在诗歌文学上的成就和贡献。 1．What does the text mainly talk about? A．The life of Gwendolyn Brooks's. B．The poems of Gwendolyn Brooks's. C．The understanding about black culture. D．The struggle of black women. 解析：选 B　主旨大意题。根据第一段和其余各段的段首可知，本文主要讲了非裔美国 女诗人 Gwendolyn Brooks 在诗歌文学上的成就和贡献。 2．What can we learn about Gwendolyn Brooks's from the second paragraph? A．She mainly wrote about struggles of black women. B．She was good at using the language of poetry. C．Her writing skills were a little worse than her ability. D．Her poems were mainly about the African experience. 解析：选 B　细节理解题。根据第二段中的“She was an expert at the language of poetry.”可知，Gwendolyn Brooks 是诗歌语言的专家。 3．The author develops the passage mainly by ________. A．providing examples　 　 　B．using statistics C．comparing opinions D．describing her experiences 解析：选 A　写作手法题。文中第三至第六段分别列举了 Gwendolyn Brooks 的一些作 品，如诗歌“Annie Allen”“Corners on the Curving Sky”和小说“Maud Martha”。故作者主 要是用举例法来行文的。 4．In the next part, the author would most probably talk about ________. A．The difficulties Gwendolyn Brooks's would meet B．the poems related to political issues C．the award Gwendolyn Brooks had gained D．the racial inequality the black had to face 解析：选 B　推理判断题。根据最后一段最后一句可知 Gwendolyn Brooks 的诗歌中涉 及政治问题，故接下来最有可能讲的是与政治问题有关的诗歌，B 项正确。 B Everyone seems to be living for someone else. I had once helped a friend of mine run a watermelon stall. I noticed something interesting when people came to buy watermelons, but nobody paid any attention to it because it seemed to be a common practice: almost every buyer would lift the melon up to their ear, smartly rap it, apparently trying to listen to something. I wondered what they expected to hear. Finally I could no longer hold back my curiosity and made bold to ask a customer — an elderly gentleman — about this. Hearing my question, he roared with laughter. Then he replied in a self­mocking tone ，“Young lady, I have been doing this for more than fifty years. But all I know is that everybody would stare at you like you were a fool if you just pick up a melon and leave.” Not long after that, my watermelon stall friend sent me an invitation to her wedding, which really surprised me. I asked her, “How come you're seized by a sudden whim to get married? I even didn't know you had got a boyfriend.” She answered while counting money, “Everyone has to get married anyway. So, it is better to get married sooner than later.” Have they forgotten their own heart? It may be safer and save a lot more worries to swim_with_the_tide. The use of WE or US will give one a steady and sure sense of pride. But why do people usually feel uneasy when using “I”？ I find these somewhat funny.We have got used to following others' example. We feel at ease and justified simply because this is a way of US, a way having been practiced by so many people. But this massive practice is still wrong though we all follow suit. And in turn, we also take it for granted that we should judge the right and wrong of others by our own standard. 语篇解读：作者通过身边人的事例，发现人们在生活中往往“随大流”，盲从别人，没有跟 随自己的内心。 5．Why did the elderly gentleman rap the watermelon before buying it? A．Because he expected to hear something. B．Because he knew nothing about it. C．Because he just followed suit. D．Because he was a fool. 解析：选 C　细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句“But all I know is that everybody would stare at you like you were a fool if you just pick up a melon and leave.”可知，老人不知道敲 西瓜的确切原因，只是看到别人都在敲，如果自己不敲一下，会被人认为是一个傻子。故选 C 项。 6．Which of the following can best replace the phrase“swim with the tide” in the fourth paragraph? A．Follow the crowd. B．Swim against the tide. C．Wear other people's clothes. D．Follow your heart. 解析：选 A　词义猜测题。根据第四段第三句“The use of WE or US will give one a steady and sure sense of pride.”可推断出本句中的 tide(潮水)指的应该是“WE or US”，而 swim with the tide 意为“跟随人群；随大流；从众”。故选 A 项。 7．What will be most likely written about by the author in the next paragraph? A．Nothing. B．A story about following your heart. C．A funny story about how to follow your heart. D．An example about judging others by your own standard. 解析：选 D　推理判断题。根据最后一段末句“... we also take it for granted that we should judge the right and wrong of others by our own standard”可推断出下文可能会与“用 自己的标准评价别人”有关，故选 D 项。 C Recent studies have shown that challenging your brain, by spurring (刺激) the brain to create new patterns, is very important to keep your brain active and healthy as you age. Lifelong learning is a health club for our minds, bodies and spirits. This is why we parents should also teach our children to be lifelong learners. Dr. Marilyn Price­Mitchell, an American psychologist, and youth development expert, shares some ways for us to do this. 1．Ask questions. When your child asks you a question, don't answer it straight away. Instead, help him or her bring up “questions that pique their curiosity.” This way, we help children make connections between what they're learning at school and the world beyond their classroom. We also show them that learning does not, and should not, end when one is “done with school”— it's actually a lifelong process! 2．Let them fail. Our kids love learning about different scientific concepts ( 概 念 ) via TheMagicSchoolBus videos on YouTube. And one of the characters, Miss Frizzle (the science teacher) always says this phrase：“Take chances, make mistakes, and get messy.” I always quote her when the kids say they're afraid to do or learn something because they might do it wrong or make a mistake. If we don't allow our kids to fail, they won't be able to learn to “use mistakes and failures to make lifelong learning easier，” as Dr. Price­Mitchell says. 3．Learn through experience. This is very true for all of us, especially children. In the words of Dr. Price­Mitchell, “Learning through experience, not just from books, is one of the best ways to give the youth the skills they need for lifelong learning, living, and working in the 21st century.” Of course, we should also set an example for our children — by learning continuously, and expanding our knowledge and experiences. 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了帮助孩子成为终身学习者的三种方法。 8．What's the author's attitude to what Miss Frizzle always says?

If you're not one of these lucky types, don't worry.__1__ Remark on the surroundings or occasions.

People would like your saying “My daughter went to that school, too. How does your son like it？” __4__ Don't say something that obviously causes offence and avoid heavy subjects such as politics or religion. Stick to light subjects like the weather, surroundings, and anything you have in common such as movies or sports teams. Listen effectively. __5__ You can't concentrate on what someone's saying if you're thinking about what you're going to say next.
