D．North Narrabeen Beach.‎ 解析：选D　细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“surf”“the beach attracts board lovers”“Surfers”等信息可知，喜欢冲浪的人最适合去North Narrabeen Beach。故选D。‎ B ‎(2019·湖北四市七校联考)It was a normal school day for senior Solymar Solis until an unexpected visitor arrived. Her dad, Sgt. Carlos Solis Melendez, surprised her by coming home early from Kuwait and visiting her unannounced at Spring Valley High School in South Carolina.‎ After serving in Kuwait for nine months, Melendez returned home a week earlier than his daughter expected. He held balloons and flowers in a classroom as he sat at a student's desk to blend in with the crowd. “It came to my mind like ‘How is she going to react？’，” he recalled the heartwarming moment.“Is she going to be happy and run to me and hug me, or cry? That was all going on through my mind.”‎ As unsuspecting Solymar entered the classroom, she was soon overcome with emotion, immediately bursting into tears and covering her mouth. She didn't talk. She was just crying. She was overwhelmed with everything. She thought it was a dream.‎ Melendez was a single parent so when he was deployed (调动), he got his sister to live with his daughter. When he was coming back and talking to his sister, both of them came to the conclusion that they should do something special for his daughter. Melendez and his sister got in touch with the school, and they planned this whole beingintheclassroom thing, and it turned out perfect.‎ The two are very much looking forward to some good daddydaughter time now that he's home.“It means everything，” Melendez said of being able to surprise his daughter this way. “After all the sacrifices she's made, she deserves all the special arrangements and special occasions and celebrations. I'll do anything for my daughter. I believe I'm doing good ‎ parenting.”‎ 语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了在姐姐和女儿学校的帮助下，一位在科威特工作的父亲提前回家在女儿的教室为她准备了一个惊喜的故事。‎ ‎4．How did Solymar feel at first when entering the classroom?‎ A．She was eager to hug her father.‎ B．She felt everything was as usual.‎ C．She got excited at seeing her father.‎ D．She was surprised by what she saw.‎ 解析：选B　细节理解题。根据第一段“It was a normal school day for senior Solymar Solis”和第三段“As unsuspecting Solymar entered the classroom”可知，Solymar那天刚进入教室时感觉到一切如往常一样，故选项B正确。unsuspecting意为“无疑心的，不知情的”。‎ ‎5．What was Melendez's attitude to the surprise?‎ A．Content. B．Astonished.‎ C．Touched. D．Upset.‎ 解析：选A　推理判断题。根据第四段末句中的“and it turned out perfect”和第五段中的“she deserves all the special arrangements ... I'm doing good parenting”可以推断出，这位父亲对这次为女儿准备的惊喜是非常满意的(content)。所以选项A正确。‎ ‎6．Why did Melendez plan the surprise for Solymar?‎ A．To get involved in her school life.‎ B．To show his concern for her in a special way.‎ C．To build a strong emotional bond with her.‎ D．To make up for what she lost in her growth.‎ 解析：选D　推理判断题。根据第四段的描述可知，Solymar的父亲在外工作，把她托付给姐姐照顾，这次提前回来并在姐姐和学校的帮助下安排了这次特别的见面。同时结合第五段父亲的话可以看出，他之所以这样做就是为了弥补(make up for)Solymar在成长过程中缺失的父爱。所以选项D正确。‎ ‎7．What can be the best title for the passage?‎ A．Father's Selfless Love for His Daughter B．Girl Expecting the Returning of Her Dad C．Girl Surprised at School by Her Dad's Return D．Father and Daughter's Expected Reunion 解析：选C　标题归纳题。根据全文的内容，尤其是首段第一句中的“until an unexpected visitor arrived”以及末段中的“Melendez said of being able to surprise his daughter this way”‎ 可知，父亲为了给女儿一个惊喜，所以提前回家，并在女儿所在的教室精心准备了这次见面。所以选项C体现了文章的主旨，最适合作本文标题。‎ C ‎(2019·名校原创预测卷四)If you have ever found yourself looking for your keys, misplacing your cell phone or wanting to keep track of your bicycle or car, then the TrackR, a device (装置) that works with your smartphone created by a Californiabased company, is for you! At ＄29.95 each, not like the expensive GPS systems, or with TrackR Pack purchase deals, you can't afford not to have one!‎ Install (安装) the free TrackR app on your smartphone.Connect the app to your device and then you are ready to go! Simply attach the TrackR to whatever you don't want to lose.The entire process of setting it up only takes 5 minutes or less.‎ If you have the hard TrackR, you can just hide it under your car's floor mat, in the trunk or somewhere it won't be found if your car gets stolen.If you forget where you parked your car, take out your smartphone and open the TrackR app.Tap on the “lost item” icon on the screen and the app will tell you exactly where it is.‎ You can also attach it to your pet.Put it on their collar, and the problem of searching for them as they run off to nearby places will be over! Attach it to your keys and wallet, and never waste a minute searching the whole house for it.The affordable TrackR even comes with a doublesided adhesive (黏合剂) so you can stick it to your laptop or under your bike seat.Track down and punish the thieves who steal your expensive things!‎ The convenience and the ability to find actually any object means that the TrackR is one of the most useful articles that you'll find for any price.However, the best thing it can give is peace of mind, and it doesn't get any better than that.‎ 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了一款科技产品——TrackR。‎ ‎8．What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?‎ A．How the TrackR works.‎ B．The features of the TrackR.‎ C．Why the TrackR is invented.‎ D．The advantages of the TrackR.‎ 解析：选A　段落大意题。根据第二段的内容尤其是“Install (安装) the free TrackR app”“Connect the app to your device”及“attach the TrackR to”可知，本段主要讲的是TrackR是如何工作的。故选A。‎ ‎9．What can the TrackR help people do?‎ A．Walk their pets nearby.‎ B．Recognize the thieves.‎ C．Seek their misplaced car.‎ D．Find them a parking place.‎ 解析：选C　细节理解题。根据第三段中的“If you forget where you parked your car, take out your smartphone and open the TrackR app ... the app will tell you exactly where it is”可知，当你不记得自己把车停在哪里时，TrackR会告诉你它的准确位置。故选C。‎ ‎10．What can we infer about the TrackR?‎ A．It's far from affordable.‎ B．It's on sale worldwide.‎ C．It can be easily folded.‎ D．It's small in size.‎ 解析：选D　推理判断题。根据第三段中的“hide it under your car's floor mat”和第四段中的“Put it on their collar”“Attach it to your keys and wallet”“stick it to your laptop or under your bike seat”可知，你可以将TrackR放在汽车的垫子下面，系在宠物的颈圈上，附在钥匙上，放在钱包里，粘在笔记本电脑上或自行车座位下，由此可推知TrackR的尺寸应是很小的。故选D。‎ ‎11．What's the best title for the text?‎ A．TrackR — no limits B．TrackR — no worries C．TrackR — your item protector D．TrackR — your financial manager 解析：选B　标题归纳题。纵观全文可知，本文主要介绍了一款跟踪装置TrackR的相关内容，有了它，人们就不用担心丢东西了。故B项作本文标题最佳。‎ D ‎(2019·名校原创预测卷五)Many high school football programs have been cut recently due to concerns about player safety.Safety is one factor families may consider as their high schoolers decide what extracurricular (课外的) activities to participate in this year.Decreased football programs may also mean students are looking for new activities.For teens planning to apply to college, the activities they join in could hold weight during the admissions process.‎ ‎“We are not looking at just the student's academic records, although that's obviously important，” says Drew Riley, Associate Dean of Admission at Colgate University in New York.“Generally, we're looking for students who will contribute to university life beyond the classroom.”‎ Potential college students may have many activities to choose from, but they and their families should consider the following questions before selecting extracurricular activities.‎ ‎1．Is the student interested in the activity? Students should look for activities they are passionate about and can participate in fully.These activities don't need to be tied to a particular ‎ academic interest either.Students shouldn't limit themselves to only one activity, but there should be some depth and breadth to the activities.Longevity (持久) is important too.When writing applications, students should focus on the activities that will help them stand out.‎ ‎2．Does the activity help the community? Sometimes admissions officers at college want to see that applicants are motivated not just by improving themselves — but their communities too — through activities.Students don't necessarily have to participate in a service trip abroad to show this, Riley says.It could be something small that shows students attempt to make a positive impact on the world.‎ ‎3．What is the student's motivation for the activity? Admissions officers read hundreds — if not thousands — of applications a year and can tell if students aren't being authentic and are just participating in activities because they think it will build their resume (个人简历) for college, says Riley.Students should have an authentic interest in the activities they join.‎ 语篇解读：本文是一篇议论文。如今，高中生选择课外活动时应考虑大学招生录取方面的因素。同时，作者也提供了一些选择课外活动的建议。‎ ‎12．Why are high school football programs mentioned in the first paragraph?‎ A．To show the benefits of extracurricular activities.‎ B．To stress the importance of safety in activities.‎ C．To describe some common kinds of activities.‎ D．To introduce the topic for discussion.‎ 解析：选D　推理判断题。根据文章第一段的内容，尤其是“Decreased football programs may ...the activities they join in could hold weight during the admissions process”可知，作者提及高中足球活动是为了引出下文要讨论的主题。故选D。‎ ‎13．What does the author say about students' extracurricular involvement?‎ A．It should be helpful in showing their personality.‎ B．It can make a difference to their college application.‎ C．It should be centered on students' selfimprovement.‎ D．It should be beneficial to their academic improvement.‎ 解析：选B　推理判断题。根据第一段的最后一句及第二段中的“We are not looking at just the student's academic records, although that's obviously important”和“Generally, we're looking for students who will contribute to university life beyond the classroom”可知，高中生所参加的课外活动在其申请大学时有一定的影响。大学在录取学生时不仅看他们的学习成绩，还关注他们在教室之外能给大学作出什么样的贡献。由此可知，学生参与课外活动会对其大学申请产生影响。故选B。‎ ‎14．Which can replace the underlined word “passionate” in Paragraph 4?‎ A．Crazy. B．Curious.‎ C．Cautious. D．Happy.‎ 解析：选A　词义猜测题。根据第四段中的“Is the student interested in the activity”可知，本段主要强调的是高中生在选择课外活动时要考虑自己是否对要选择的活动感兴趣。由此可推知，画线词所在句指的是学生应该选择他们很感兴趣且会完全参与其中的活动。passionate的意思应是“狂热的”，与crazy的意思相近。故选A。‎ ‎15．What is the passage mainly about?‎ A．High school students are looking for new activities.‎ B．Whether high school football programs should be cut.‎ C．Why extracurricular activities pay off with college admission.‎ D．Potential college students should attach importance to afterschool activities.‎ 解析：选D　主旨大意题。纵观全文可知，大学在招生的时候，对学生参与课外活动的情况很看重，因此未来的大学生(高中生)应重视课外活动。故D项最能概括本文的主要内容。‎ Ⅱ.阅读七选五 ‎(2019·贵阳监测)Reading is an interesting and useful thing.
