必修1Unit 4Earthquakes李仕才一、阅读理解A“BANG!” the door caused a reverberation (回声). It was just standing there, with father standing on one side, and me on the other side.We were both in great anger. “Never set foot in this house again!” stormed father. With tears welling up in my eyes, I rushed out of the flat and ran along the street.The street lights were shining, causing rather sad feelings. I wandered aimlessly.A young father who held a child in his arms walked past me. I felt as if I saw my childhood from another space: happy and carefree.But now I dont know whether it is because I have grown up or because dad is getting old. We differ in our ways of thinking. We are just like two people coming from two different worlds. It feels like there is an iron door between us that can never be opened.I wandered the streets, without a destination in mind.My heart was frozen on this hot summer night.As I walked on, there were fewer and fewer people on the streets, until I had only the street lights to keep me company. When I finally reached the high-rise apartment block in which I lived, I saw that the light was still on.I thought to myself: “Is father waiting for me, or is he still angry with me?”In fact, it was nothing. Perhaps, dad was throwing away some of his old stamps. Perhaps he thought they were useless. I never had the courage to tell him that I liked collecting stamps.All the lights were off except fathers.Dad was always like this. Maybe he didnt know how to express himself. After shouting at me, he never showed any pity or any moments of regret.This was how he always was. He has been a leader for so long that telling everyone else what to do has become his second nature.The light was still on. “Am I wrong?” I whispered, maybe With the key in my hand, I was as nervous as I had ever been. At last, I decided to open the door. As soon as I opened the door, tears ran down my cheeks. I suddenly realized that the iron door that I had imagined between us did not exist at all.

Maybe he didnt know how to express himself. After shouting at me, he never showed any pity or any moments of regret.”和“This was how he always was. He has been a leader for so long that telling everyone else what to do has become his second nature.”可知,作者的父亲一向如此,可能是由于不知道如何表达自己,对作者吼叫后,他从来显示出同情或后悔,他做过领导很长时间,指使别人做事情是他的第二天性。这都说明作者的父亲可能习惯了对作者吼叫。“Perhaps the father had been used to doing that.”符合语境。选择D项。4.A 【解析】观点态度题。根据最后一段中的“As soon as I opened the door, tears ran down my cheeks. I suddenly realized that the iron door that I had imagined between us did not exist at all. Love-its second to none.”可知,作者一开门,眼泪就流下来了。他突然意识到原来想象中的那扇铁门根本就不存在,爱才是第一位的。这说明作者理解了父亲的爱,他也爱他的父亲。“He loved his father.”符合语境。选择A项。B“Her grades are fine; Im not worried about that, but she just doesnt seem to love learning any more,” Alices mum said. Shes absolutely right. Id noticed the same thing about her daughter over the previous two or three years when Id been Alices middle school English, Latin, and writing teacher, and I have an answer, right there on the tip of my tongue, to what has gone wrong. Yet Im torn between my responsibility to help Alice and the knowledge that what I have to say is a truth Im not sure this mother is ready to hear. The truth for this parent and so many others is this: Her child has sacrificed her natural curiosity and love of learning at the altar (圣坛) of achievement, and its our fault. Alices parents, her teachers, society at large we are all supposed to be blamed in this crime against learning. From her first day of school, we pointed her toward that altar and trained her to measure her progress by means of points, scores, and awards.We taught Alice that her potential is tied to her intellect (智力), and that her intellect is more important than her character. We taught her to come home proudly bearing grade As, championship prizes, and college acceptance, and not on purpose, we taught her that we dont really care how she obtains them. We taught her to protect her academic and extracurricular perfection at all costs and that its better to quit when things get challenging rather than risk losing that perfect record. Above all else, we taught her to fear failure. That fear is what has destroyed her love of learning. 【文章大意】本文通过Alice的例子说明了父母、老师和社会有时会扼杀孩子的好奇心和对学习的热爱。【难句分析】 We taught Alice that her potential is tied to her intellect(智力),and that her intellect is more important than her character.(第三段第四句) 分析:这是一个复合句,含有两个that引导的宾语从句。We是主语,taught是谓语,两个that在从句中均不充当成分。 译文:我们教给Alice的是她的潜力和她的智力是联系在一起的,并且她的智力比她的性格更重要。1Both the mother and the author have noticed that _.AAlice hates to tell them the truthBAlices test scores are not so goodCAlice chooses several subjects to learn DAlice doesnt enjoy studying any more答案与解析:D考查细节理解。根据第一段中的“but she just doesnt seem to love learning any more”和第二段中的“Id noticed the same thing about her daughter”可知,Alice的妈妈和作者都注意到了Alice不再喜欢学习。A项和C项文中没有提到;根据第一段中的“Her grades are fine”可知,B项错误。2What does the underlined word “torn” mean in the passage?APained to choose. BGuilty to quit.CTired to manage. DCertain to decide.答案与解析:A考查词义猜测。根据画线词后的“between my responsibility.and the knowledge that what I have to say is a truth”可知,作者在两者之间很难选择。3What does the teacher think of the girl?AHer academic perfection results from her character. BShe is a gifted girl with spirits of challenging.CShe is perfect in her character development.DHer academic performance is great.答案与解析:D考查细节理解。根据第三段中的“We taught her to protect her academic and extracurricular perfection at all costs”可知,Alice的学业表现很好。根据第三段的“We taught Alice that her potential is tied to her intellect(智力),and that her intellect is more important than her character.”可知A项错误;根据第三段倒数第三句中的“that its better to quit when things get challenging rather than risk losing that perfect record”可知B项错误;根据第三段的倒数第二句“Above all else,we taught her to fear failure”可知C项错误。4What leads to the girls change?AA few failure experiences.BFear of failing to get good grades.CHer mothers overprotection.DHer not being accepted by colleges.答案与解析:B考查细节理解。根据第三段中的“We taught her to protect. That fear is what has destroyed her love of learning.”可知,害怕失败毁掉了Alice对学习的热爱。二、七选五(2018广东省广州市普通高中毕业班综合测试一) Weve all experienced peer pressure (同伴压力). It happens to everybody. However, people have different reactions. Confident people refuse to do things they dont want to do, but shy and anxious people often give in. It may be because they want to be liked. It may be because they worry that their friends will make fun of them, or perhaps theyre just curious about trying something new. _1_. Its hard being the only one who says no and the question is: how do you do it? _2_ If you think that missing maths, or smoking, or going somewhere you know your parents wouldnt like is a bad idea then the answer is simple: dont do it. Its your decision, nobody elses. You dont need to be aggressive. You dont need to shout and scream, but you must be confident and you must be firm. You need to say, “No thanks. I dont want to do that.” Being on your own against everybody else is very hard, so it can really help to have at least one other peer, or friend, who will say no too. _3_ You want friends who will support you when youre in trouble. You dont want people who will always agree with the majority. Remember, the most popular people arent always the most trustworthy. _4_ You can learn a lot from people of your own age. They can teach you great football skills or the best way to do your maths homework. They can recommend music and advise you on fashion. And dont forget you can tell them things too, and that always feels great. So, find friends who have similar interests. And remember, friendship isnt about feeling depressed and guilty. _5_ AChoose your friends carefully.BFirstly, you must decide what you believe in.CIts about sharing experiences and having fun.DOf course, peer pressure isnt completely bad.EIt may be because they were all born to be stubborn.FDepression and guilt will surely give you peer pressure.GWhatever the reason, some people end up doing things they really dont want to do. 【文章大意】自信的人通常选择拒绝做不乐意做的事情,而害羞和焦虑的人通常会选择接受。本文介绍了如何学会拒绝并解释了如何从来自同伴的压力中学习。1答案与解析:G根据空前两句“It may be because they want to be liked. It may be because they worry that their friends will make fun of them,or perhaps theyre just curious about trying something new”可知,那些害羞和焦虑的人做他们不想做的事情可能是为了让别人喜欢自己,也可能担心他们的朋友会取笑他们,或者仅是尝试新事物。结合空处所在的位置可以判断,空处承上启下,说明不管是何种原因,这些人选择了做他们不想做的事情,故G项符合文意。2答案与解析:B根据该段最后两句“You dont need to shout and scream, but you must be confident and you must be firm. You need to say, No thanks. I dont want to do that.”可知,对于如何拒绝,你无需叫喊,但是要自信和坚定;据此可知,空处表示要确定你相信的东西,故B项符合文意。3答案与解析:A根据空后一句“You want friends who will support you when youre in trouble”可知,你需要在你困难时会支持你的朋友;据此可以判断,空处介绍的是“要慎重选择朋友”,故A项与此处匹配。4答案与解析:D根据空后的“You can learn a lot from people of your own age. They can teach you great football skills or the best way to do your maths homework.”可知,你可以从同龄人那里学习很多,他们能教会你很多知识;据此可以判断,来自同伴的压力并非完全是坏事,故D项符合文意。5答案与解析:C根据“They can teach you . that always feels great.”可知,友谊是分享技能、爱好等,是一起享受快乐,故C项符合文意。三、短文改错(2018长沙市高中毕业生供题)It snowed last night, when was quite rare here in Western Washington State.
