课时练1　2篇阅读＋1篇完形 Ⅰ.阅读理解 A ‎(2020·合肥高三调研)‎ Rich as a King WilliamⅠ， who conquered England some 950 years ago, had wealth, power and an army. Yet although William was very rich by the standard of his time, he had nothing like a flush toilet(抽水马桶), paper towels, or a riding lawn mower(割草机). How did he get__by?‎ History books are filled with wealthy people who were poor compared to me. I have storm windows, Croesus did not. Entire nations trembled before Alexander the Great, but he couldn’t buy cat food. Czar Nicholas lacked an electric saw.‎ Given how much better off I am than so many famous dead people, you’d think I’d be content. The trouble is that, like most people, I compare my wealth with that of living persons: neighbors, school classmates, and famous TV people. The greed I feel toward my friend Howard’s new kitchen is not reduced by the fact that no kings ever had a refrigerator with glass doors.‎ There is really no rising or falling standard of living. Over the centuries people simply find different things to feel sad about. You’d think that simply not having disease would put us in a good mood, but no, we want a hot bath too.‎ Of course, one way to achieve happiness would be to realize that even by today’s standards the things I own are pretty nice. My house is smaller than the houses of many investment bankers, but even so it has a lot more rooms that my wife and I can keep clean.‎ Besides, to people looking back at our era from a century or two in the future, these bankers’ fancy counter tops and my own worn Formica will seem equally shabby. I can’t keep up with my neighbors right now. But just wait.‎ ‎【解题导语】　本文主要通过同富有的古人对比启迪读者：生活没有必要攀比，要知足常乐。‎ ‎1．What does the underlined phrase “get by” in the first paragraph mean?‎ A．Succeed as a king.‎ B．Deal with complaints.‎ C．Live in a satisfactory way.‎ D．Get some extra money.‎ C　解析：词义猜测题。根据第三段第一句“Given how much better off I am than so many famous dead people, you’d think I’d be content.”，‎ 并结合对第一段第二句的理解：没有现代这些便利的生活设备，富有的威廉一世如何才能生活得称心如意呢？由此可推知，画线短语表示“以一种令人满意的方式生活”，故选C。‎ ‎2．How many historical figures are mentioned to compare lives in the past and present?‎ A．3.　　　　　　　　　 B．4.‎ C．5. D．6.‎ B　解析：细节理解题。根据对第一段和第二段的理解可知，古今生活对比中作者列举了四个历史人物，他们分别是：William Ⅰ， Croesus, Alexander the Great和Czar Nicholas。‎ ‎3．According to the passage, the author intends to ________．‎ A．tell us to be content with life B．warn us to live in a simple way C．teach us to learn lessons from life D．encourage us to struggle for wealth A　解析：写作意图题。根据文章的标题Rich as a King，并结合对全文的整体理解可推知，作者通过古今生活对比，告诉我们要知足常乐。‎ ‎4．What’s the author’s attitude towards life?‎ A．Doubtful. B．Optimistic.‎ C．Uncaring. D．Cautious.‎ B　解析：观点态度题。根据最后两段，尤其是最后一段最后两句“I can’t keep up with my neighbors right now. But just wait.”可推知，作者对生活持乐观的态度。‎ B ‎(2020·滁州高三质检)As evolution tends to remove waste, how come we evolved such large, energyconsuming brains? The dominant hypothesis(假设) suggests that tough social interactions are the driving force. But our new study done in an unusual way shows that human brain expansion is likely driven by ecology(生态)．‎ Scientists have tested the ecological and social hypotheses before. The common approach is to look at many species and investigate whether large brains are associated with specific problems. For example, do primates or other animals with large brains have a diet that is challenging to find but nutritionally rewarding? This would indicate an ecological origin. Or do they live in large groups where they face lots of social problems?‎ While many studies have found such associations, there is a problem. It cannot tell whether large brains evolved to solve the difficult problems or whether they evolved for other reasons and then enabled their bearers to deal with the hard problems.‎ To find out the causes of brain expansion, we recreated the scenarios(可能出现的情况) of the two hypotheses using a mathematical model. We found that a combination of ecological and ‎ social challenges do produce the brain size we see in humans. But it was ecological challenges that expanded brains. In contrast to the dominant view and our own expectation, we found that social challenges contributed by decreasing brain size. But you need both factors to get the brain size we see today—if there were no social challenges our brains would have been even larger but likely poorly suited to social life. Bigger isn’t necessarily better.‎ But many animals face hard ecological problems. Why don’t they all have large brains? We found that ecological problems only lead to humansized brains when individuals can keep learning hard skills as they grow. So our results and those of others’ suggest that hard ecology and the accumulation of cultural knowledge could act together to produce a humansized brain.‎ Will the human brain expand further? The complexity of the systems involved makes it impossible to say much with certainty at present.‎ ‎【解题导语】　本文是一篇说明文。科学研究发现，人类大脑的大小是由生态环境和文化知识积累的共同作用决定的；大脑并非越大越好，如果大脑过大，则人类将无法适应社交活动。‎ ‎5．In most people’s view, what makes human evolve large brains?‎ A．Social challenges.‎ B．Social and ecological challenges.‎ C．Ecological challenges.‎ D．Competition with other large animals.‎ A　解析：细节理解题。根据第一段第二句“The dominant hypothesis(假设)suggests that tough social interactions are the driving force.”并结合第一段内容可知，大部分人认为棘手的社交活动是人类大脑进化的动力，故A项正确。‎ ‎6．What’s the problem of the common approach?‎ A．Its model is not reliable enough.‎ B．It doesn’t tell the cause and effect clearly.‎ C．Its hypothesis cannot be proved effectively.‎ D．It doesn’t find brain size is connected with problems.‎ B　解析：细节理解题。根据第三段第二句“It cannot tell whether large brains evolved to solve the difficult problems or whether they evolved for other reasons and then enabled their bearers to deal with the hard problems.”可知，传统的研究方法无法解释清楚大脑进化的原因和影响，故B项正确。‎ ‎7．Why don’t many animals have large brains?‎ A．They don’t learn from each other.‎ B．They don’t face hard ecological problems.‎ C．They don’t need to cooperate with each other.‎ D．They don’t keep learning tough skills as they grow.‎ D　解析：推理判断题。根据第五段第二、三句“Why don’t they all have large brains? We found that ecological problems only lead to humansized brains when individuals can keep learning hard skills as they grow.”可知，只有当个体在成长过程中不断学习艰难的技能时，生态环境才会影响人类特定大小的大脑。据此可推知，动物在成长过程中并没有持续学习艰难的技能，所以动物没有大的大脑，故D项正确。‎ ‎8．Which of the following do the researchers find most surprising?‎ A．Animals don’t have large brains.‎ B．Social challenges decrease brain size.‎ C．Ecological challenges increase brain size.‎ D．It’s unclear whether human brains will expand further.‎ B　解析：细节理解题。根据第四段第四句“In contrast to the dominant view and our own expectation, we found that social challenges contributed by decreasing brain size.”可知，与主流观点及我们自己的预期相反，我们发现社会挑战导致大脑变小。据此可知，社会挑战导致大脑变小是令人惊讶的发现，故B项正确。‎ Ⅱ.完形填空 ‎(2020·合肥第一次质检)Greenberg was a lucky guy to enter Columbia University on a full scholarship.

It was a strange reality that none of the doctors I visited could understand.‎ One day, I was shadowing(尾随) my mother. She found herself looking in a mirror, and through it our eyes met. She began to speak to me through the reflection, and I slowly began to mimic(模仿) her mouth’s movements until I formed a word.‎ It turned out that I’m deaf in my left ear, and have a slight problem in my right. Being hard of hearing has been difficult, but I’ve never lived in a state of selfhating sorrow. Imagine being able to shut out all sound as you lay your head down to sleep by simply rolling over onto one side. That’s my reality when I sleep on my “good ear”， and it makes me feel like a superhero sometimes.‎ People call my deaf side my “bad ear”， but when I wear my hearing aid, I have access to a range of features that some other deaf people don’t. In cinemas, for example, with one click of a button I can enjoy a whole film as though it were whispered to me from the mouths of the actors.‎ Owning a hearing aid hasn’t always felt good, however. On the first day I got my aid, when I was eight, I took it to school for show and tell. As I explained how it worked to my classmates, a boy yelled out, “Aren’t those for old men？” At that moment, I felt different. It took a long time for me to get over that sense of being so unlike my peers.‎ But it’s not just schoolkids who can make us deaf and hardofhearing people feel like burdens. Every video on social media that lacks subtitles(字幕), for example, means an entire community of deaf people is unable to enjoy it. Completely deaf people are excluded from enjoying many movies too, as subtitles in cinemas are almost impossible to find.‎ And with hearing aids costing around $2，500 each, it can be hard for many people to afford to be able to listen to things that others take for granted. As for me, I can listen to music, enjoy films, and catch conversations—I’m lucky. I’m deaf, but I can still hear everything. I’ve been blessed with wonderful life experiences, and I am human. And when it comes to sleeping, I’m even superhuman.‎ ‎【解题导语】　本文主要讲述了作者积极应对自己听力障碍的励志故事。‎ ‎1．How does the author view his hearing difficulty?‎ A．It’s a disaster and causes him a lot of trouble.‎ B．It gave him a chance to experience something special.‎ C．It made him feel embarrassed in front of his classmates.‎ D．It helped him to live in his own world without being interrupted.‎ B　解析：推理判断题。根据对第三段的整体理解，尤其是最后一句“That’s my reality when I sleep on my ‘good ear’， and it makes me feel like a superhero sometimes.”可推知，听力障碍让作者有了与众不同的体验，与最后一段倒数第二句“I’ve been blessed with wonderful life experiences, and I am human.”呼应，故选B。‎ ‎2．What can be inferred from the passage about the author?‎ A．He was born deaf.‎ B．He is optimistic and helpful.‎ C．His family and classmates have supported him a lot.‎ D．The hearing aid brings much convenience to his daily life.‎ D　解析：推理判断题。根据第四段第一句“People call my deaf side my ‘bad ear’， but when I wear my hearing aid, I have access to a range of features that some other deaf people don’t.”和对本段的整体理解可推知，助听器给作者的生活带来了诸多便利，故选D。‎ ‎3．What is the author’s attitude towards his life?‎ A．Grateful.　　　　　　　　 B．Anxious.‎ C．Excited.

But in fact, humans blink about 15 times per minute on average. Have you ever missed anything because you blinked? Probably not. Why is that?‎ According to a new study published in the journal Current Biology in September, our brain has the ability to skip the temporary darkness when we blink. It can keep visual information for a short period of time and then put it together to form an image without interruption.‎ In order to understand how this works, a group of scientists at the German Primate Center and the University Center Gottingen in Germany conducted an experiment. In the study, the participants were asked to look at patterns on a screen whose direction could be interpreted in different ways, such as horizontally(水平地) or vertically(垂直地). When one pattern was about to disappear and the next one was about to come, the participants had to indicate the direction that the next pattern would appear.‎ The researchers found that when the directions of two patterns didn’t match, the area in our brain which is responsible for visual memory was activated. This same area showed less activity when two patterns were in the same direction.‎ ‎“The medial prefrontal cortex(额叶皮层) adjusts current visual information with previously obtained information, and thus enables us to perceive the world with more stability, even when we ‎ briefly close our eyes to blink，” Caspar Schwiedrzik explained in Science Daily. He is the first author of the study and also a scientist at the German Primate Center.‎ ‎【解题导语】　本文是一篇说明文。研究发现，眨眼并不会错过细节并解释了其原因。‎ ‎5．We don’t miss anything when blinking because our brain can ________．‎ A．deal with the missing image B．remember all that we see C．imagine what our eyes miss D．put our pieces of memory together A　解析：推理判断题。根据第二段第一句“According to a new study published in the journal Current Biology in September, our brain has the ability to skip the temporary darkness when we blink.” 可知，根据九月份发表在《当代生物学》杂志上的一项新研究，我们的大脑有能力跳过我们眨眼时形成的暂时黑暗。据此可推知，由于我们的大脑能处理丢失的图像，所以眨眼不会让我们错过任何东西，故A项正确。‎ ‎6．What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to?‎ A．Our brain.　　　　　　　‎ B．Visual information.‎ C．Current Biology. ‎ D．The temporary darkness.‎ B　解析：代词指代题。根据第二段第二句“It can keep visual information for a short period of time and then put it together to form an image without interruption.”可知，大脑可以在短时间内保存视觉信息，然后将其组合在一起形成不中断的图像，故可推知，it指代上文中的“visual information”，故B项正确。‎ ‎7．What do we know about the experiment?‎ A．The two patterns appear at the same time.‎ B．Visual memory can be more activated by similarity.‎ C．Participants can interpret patterns differently.‎ D．The different directions activated visual memory.‎ D　解析：细节理解题。根据第四段中的“when the directions of two patterns didn’t match, the area in our brain which is responsible for visual memory was activated. This same area showed less activity when two patterns were in the same direction.”可知，当两个模式的方向不一致时，掌握视觉记忆的大脑区域则被激活；当两种模式在同一方向时，这个区域则显示出较少的活动。据此可知，不同的方向能激活视觉记忆，故D项正确。‎ ‎8．What would be the best title for this passage?‎ A．The Brain’s Structure B．The Brain’s Activated Patterns C．The Brain’s Special Skill D．The Brain’s Orientation C　解析：标题归纳题。通读全文可知，本文主要介绍了一项科学研究。研究表明，眨眼不会错过细节并解释了其原因，即大脑有能力在短时间内保存视觉信息，然后将其组合在一起形成不中断的图像信息。故C项最适合作本文的标题。‎ Ⅱ.七选五 ‎(2020·重庆质量抽测)‎ Ways to Get Your Kids into Nature Being in nature for kids has tremendous health benefits.
