2019-2020年高考英语二轮复习 说理议论阅读理解（3）说理议论（阅读理解）由 (xx江西,D)改编One might expect that the ever-growing demands of the tourist trade would bring nothing but good for the countries that receive the holiday-makers.Indeed,a rosy picture is painted for the long-term future of the holiday industry.Every month sees the building of a new hotel somewhere.And every month another rock-bound Pacific island is advertised as the “last paradise(天堂) on earth”.However,the scale and speed of this growth seem set to destroy the very things tourists want to enjoy.In those countries where there was a rush to make quick money out of sea-side holidays,over-crowded beaches and the concrete jungles of endless hotels have begun to lose their appeal.Those countries with little experience of tourism can suffer most.In recent years,Nepal set out to attract foreign visitors to fund developments in health and education.Its forests ,full of wildlife and rare flowers,were offered to tourists as one more untouched paradise.In fact,the nature all too soon felt the effects of thousands of holiday-makers traveling through the forest land.Ancient tracks became major routes for the walkers,with the consequent exploitation of precious trees and plants.Not only can the environment of a country suffer from the sudden growth of tourism.The people as well rapidly feel its effects.Farmland makes way for hotels,roads and airports; the old way of life goes.The one-time farmer is now the servant of some multi-national organization; he is no longer his own master.Once it was his back that bore the pain; now it is his smile that is exploited.No doubt he wonders whether he wasnt happier in his village working his own land.Thankfully,the tourist industry is waking up to the responsibilities it has towards those countries that receive its customers.The protection of wildlife and the creation of national parks go hand in hand with tourist development and in fact obtain financial support from tourist panies.At the same time,tourists are being encouraged to respect not only the countryside they visit but also its people.The way tourism is handled in the next ten years will decide its fate and that of the countries we all want to visit.Their needs and problems are more important than those of the tourist panies.Increased understanding in planning world-wide tourism can preserve the market for these panies.If not,in a few years time the very things that attract tourists now may well have been destroyed.1.What does the author indicate in the last sentence of Paragraph 1?()A.The

the suburbs of New York，our first local Earth Day was organized around a drive to a town field where families were urged to dump items from their basements for recycling rather than tossing them in the trash.It was an eyeopening concept for a kid in 1970.But as an environmental reporter，I have e to dread (非常害怕) the large amount of deals and promotions that arrive via email or in my office or home mailbox on Earth Day.Like Valentines Day，Earth Day has bee a huge marketing opportunitya paradoxical (矛盾的) way to promote consumption and sell stuff.In fact，Earth Day is such a good sales hook that some shops，like Target，have expanded Earth Day into Earth Month.There isnt time to give you a full rundown of the Earth Day shopping opportunities I was alerted to this past week.They included deals on buying bottled water and earthfriendly diaper wipes.My award for the silliest promotion：a plan to gift 25 of the most environmentally conscious stars unique，useful and fabulous “green” products and services，including skin care products，cat litter，cheesecake and artwork.My guess is most of the stuff will end up in celebrities garbage.Is buying and selling a good way to celebrate and protect the environment？I would argue that Earth Day might be an occasion to consider giving up purchases or habits that are environmentally questionable or that we could happily do without.How about not buying bottled water，but refilling a water bottle？How about not buying foodseven “organic” foodsthat are packed in nonrecyclable plastic?Dont get me wrong.Bridgestone is celebrating Earth Day by promising to repurpose a spent tire for every tire that it sells.Verizon will plant a tree for each cellphone you trade in.Some coffee stores will even refill reusable mugs at no charge.Target is giving out free reusable carrier bags without requiring a purchase.But few retailers are taking the next stepcharging a fee at the cash register for disposable plastic bags，a mon practice in Europeto motivate customers to use those new reusable carriers.Earth Day is transient (短暂的)If you only showed love on Valentines Day，would that really mean anything at all?1The authors first local Earth Day was celebrated by_.Adriving to a town field for funBdumping unused items for recyclingClooking for good ideas for reuseDclearing items from their basement2Why do some shops expand Earth Day into Earth Month?ABecause too many activities are organized for the day.BBecause they intend to make more sales strategies.CBecause they want to have more selling opportunities.DBecause they have to deal with too much waste.3Whats the authors attitude towards the deals and promotions on Earth Day?AObjective.BOptimistic.CSupportive.DCritical.4According to the author，its environmentally friendly to_.Abuy packed organic foodsBoffer stars green productsCrefill water bottlesDask for disposable plastic bags5It could be inferred from the text that Bridgestone and Verizon_.Aare likely to misunderstand the

child.As a result，he wears braces on both legs and walks with the aid of crutches.At_concerts，getting on stage is no small achievement_for_him. He slowly crosses the stage until he reaches his chair. He lays his crutches on the floor，slowly undoes the clasps (扣环) on his legs，puts one foot backward and extends the other one forward.Then he bends down and picks up the violin，puts it under his chin (下巴)，nods to the conductor，and starts to play.One fall evening in 1995，while performing at Avery Fisher Hall at Lincoln Center in New York City，Perlman had to deal with one additional trouble.Jack Reimer，a famous reporter with the Houston Chronicle，described the scene.“Just as he finished the first few bars，one of the strings on his violin broke.You could hear the sound go off like gunfire across the room.There was no mistaking what that sound meant.”There was no mistaking what he had to do.People who were there said，“We figured he would have to get up.to either find another violin or find another string for this one.”But he didnt.Instead he waited a moment，closed his eyes，and then signaled the conductor to begin again.The band and he played from where he had left off.He played with enthusiasm and power.Of course，it is impossible to play a symphonic work with just three strings.But that night Itzhak Perlman refused to know that.You could see him modulate (调音)，change，repose the piece in his head.At one point，it sounded like he was tuning the strings to get new sounds they had never made before.1What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 1 mean?AIts a piece of cake for Perlman to perform on the stage.BIts not easy for Perlman to get on the stage.CPerlman has achieved great success on the stage.DPerlman has small achievements on the stage.2.How did the string break?AIt only broke by accident.BPerlman broke the string because he was too excited.CA gunfire from somewhere in the room broke it.DIt was broken by the few bars.3.After the string broke the audience thought that Perlman would_.Aget angry at his performanceBgive up the performanceCdo something about the violinDcontinue performing with the threestring violin4.It can be inferred from the last paragraph that Perlman_.Apretended not to know that the string was brokenBthought nothing was impossibleCwas a very proud manDshowed his selfconfidence in time of trouble5.What is the best title for the passage?AA Worldfamous Disabled Artist BAn Unexpected AccidentCThe Performance Went on DA Threestring Violin and Its Owner语篇解读本文是一篇人物故事，讲述了著名残疾人演奏家Perlman演出过程中发生的意外和他的应对措施。1解析：句意理解题。画线句中的achievement指的是Perlman能够做到的事情。下文中描述他上台的细节，说明对于一个行动不便的残疾人来说，能够自己走上舞台，已经是很了不起的事情了，对他自己已经是一个不小的成就了。答案：B 2.解析：推理判断题。根据文章第二段倒数第一、二句“You could hear the sound go off like gunfire across the room.There was no mistaking what that sound meant.”可知，琴弦是弹奏过程中意外断掉的。答案：A 3.解析：细节理解题。根据文章第三段中“We figured he would have to get up.to either find another violin or find another string for this one.”可知，观众们揣测他会换另一把琴或者换根弦。答案：C 4.解析：推理判断题。根据文章最后一段可知，他仅仅用三根弦继续完成了他的演奏，可推断他对于自己拉琴的能力很有信心。答案：D 5.解析：标题概括题。通读全文可知，文章的核心不是断弦事件本身，而是断弦后Perlman镇定自信的表现，让人佩服和感动。故选项C最适合做标题。答案：C。
