2019-2020年高考英语一轮复习高考提能练三十七Module1Basketball外研版选修.阅读理解A(xx江西新余一中模拟) My Favourite Travel BooksThe Old Patagonian Express by Paul TherouxChoosing my favorite Paul Theroux book is like picking my favorite place in the world: Its impossible to settle on just one. But The Old Patagonian Express, which is about a train journey Theroux made from Boston, USA to southern Argentina, is right up there at the top of my list. Theroux has a wicked sense of humor. He brings so much wisdom and experience to his travels. Walden by Henry David ThoreauIf he were alive today, Thoreau would probably frown if he heard someone refer to Walden as a travel book. But I regard it as a travelwriting masterpiece. “I went into the woods，” he writes, “because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived.” Thats the same spirit of discovery that defines so many great contemporary travel records.The Dharma Bums by Jack KerouacLike so many people, I fell in love with Kerouacs novels in my late teens and early 20s. On the Road gets all the press, but I always love The Dharma Bums. Kerouac beautifully captures the romance of California trains, Berkeley, and backpacking in the Sierras. Its hard to read this book without wanting to leave for the mountains to brainstorm bad haikus on the trail and cook canned macaroni and cheese over a crackling campfire.Confucius Lives Next Door by TR. ReidThis is sort of A Year in Provence in Japan, only the crosscultural differences are much greater. Reid and his family moved to Tokyo when he became the chief for The Washington Post, enabling him to uncover truths about the country. Among the highlights are his observations about Japanese schools, including Yodobashi No. 6 Elementary School, where his daughters were greeted by the whole school staff.【语篇解读】本文作者为大家推荐了几本书。1Which book enables readers to experience great crosscultural differences?AThe Old Patagonian Express.BConfucius Lives Next Door.COn the Road.DWalden.答案与解析：B细节理解题。根据最后一段第一句“This is sort of A Year in Provence in Japan, only the crosscultural differences are much greater.”可知选B。2What will people feel after reading Jack Kerouacs The Dharma Bums?AA strong desire to follow.BA love for novels.CA wish to learn cooking.DAn excitement to write poems.答案与解析：A推理判断题。根据倒数第二段可知读了小说达摩流浪者(The Dharma Bums)，人们有一种想要追随的强烈渴望，所以选A。3Which writer based his book on a train journey from home to abroad?AT.R.

Every day in this school, we have opportunities to learn new lessons. No matter whether we like these lessons or not, we have to take them, because they are our lessons.Why are we here in this world? What is the purpose of life? Humans have tried to discover the meaning of life for thousands of years, but failed to get the answer, because the meaning of life is different from person to person.Each one of us has his or her special purpose and path, unique and different. As we travel on our life path, we will learn many great lessons in order to fulfill that purpose. Learning our lessons well is the key to discovering the real meaning of our own life.As we travel through our lifetime, we may be taught hard lessons that others dont have to face, while others spend years struggling with problems we dont need to deal with. We may never know why we love English, not physics, which indicates that our path is different. While traveling on our own path, sometimes alone, we should, first of all, take a basic lesson in openness.Openness means being receptive. Life will present us with so many lessons, none of which are useful to us unless we can recognize them and are open to their values. These lessons are not easy to learn, but we should regard them as gifts. But how can we recognize these lessons? It is a matter of what “glasses” we are wearing at the time. It is not difficult to spot them if we take them as opportunities. So when we are not open to learning our lessons, failing a weekly English test might be like a disaster rather than an opportunity to us. Of course, the hard lessons may not be fun, but they can actually be the biggest gifts we receive from life.【语篇解读】短文介绍我们进入生活这所大学，生活告诉我们生活的目的，生命的意义，每个人的人生道路各不相同，正确对待生活中发生的一切。12The author may be in favor of the viewpoint that all men are born _.AequalBdifferentCto learn lessons Dready for challenge答案与解析：B细节理解题。根据第二段中的“because the meaning of life is different from person to person.”可知，作者可能会同意每个人人生的意义各不相同这一观点。故选B。13The example of “we love English, not physics” is mentioned to show that we _.Achoose our own path in lifeBneed to face some hard lessonsCdiscover the meaning of our own lifeDrealize the necessity of openness答案与解析：A细节理解题。根据第四段中的“We may never know why we love English，not physics, which indicates that our path is different.”可知，作者用“我们爱英语，而不是物理”这个例子来说明我们各自都有各自的人生道路。故选A。14Whether we can see life lessons as gifts depends upon our _.Aangles of viewBmon value systemCexperiences from lifeDwillingness to face challenge答案与解析：A推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“It is a matter of whatglasses we are wearing at the time.”可知，你如何看待生活所给的教训要取决于自己“戴着什么样的眼镜”，推知作者认为看待生活中的教训的态度取决于自己的视角。故选A。15What would be the best title for the passage?ALife and LessonBLife as SchoolCLife School and StudentsD.
