2019-2020年高考英语二轮专题复习精练 阅读理解（11）xx课标全国卷Doctors are known to be terrible pilots. They dont listen because they already know it all. I was lucky: I became a pilot in 1970, almost ten years before I graduated from medical school. I didnt realize then, but being a pilot makes me a better surgeon. I loved flying. As I flew bigger, faster planes, and in worse weather, I learned about crew resource management (机组资源管理), or CRM, a new idea to make flying safer. It means that crew members should listen and speak up for a good result, regardless of positions.I first read about CRM in 1980. Not long after that, an attending doctor and I were flying in bad weather. The controller had us turn too late to get our landing ready. The attending doctor was flying; I was safety pilot. He was so busy because of the bad turn, he had forgotten to put the landing gear (起落架)down. He was a better pilotand my bossso it felt unusual to speak up. But I had to: Our lives were in danger. I put aside my uneasiness and said, “We need to put the landing gear down now！” That was my first real lesson in the power of CRM, and Ive used it in the operating room ever since.CRM requires that the pilot/surgeon encourage others to speak up. It further requires that when opinions are from the opposite, the doctor doesnt overreact, which might prevent fellow doctors from voicing opinions again. So when Im in the operating room, I ask for ideas and help from others. Sometimes theyre not willing to speak up. But I hope that if I continue to encourage them, someday someone will keep me from “landing_gear_up”1What does the author say about doctors in general?A. They like flying by themselves.B. They are unwilling to take advice.C. They pretend to be good pilots.D. They are quick learners of CRM.2. The author deepened his understanding of the power of CRM when_.A. he saved the plane by speaking upB. he was in charge of a flying taskC. his boss landed the plane too lateD. his boss operated on a patient3. In the last paragraph “landing gear up”probably means “_”A. following flying requirementsB. overreacting to different opinionsC. listening to what fellow doctors sayD. making a mistake that may cost lives4. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A. CRM: A New Way to Make Flying SafeB. Flying Makes Me a Better DoctorC. The Making of a Good PilotD. A PilotTurned Doctor文章大意本文作者谈了自己做医生和飞行员的体会，强调了倾听别人建议的重要性。1B。考查细节理解。由第一段第二句可知，医生往往不喜欢听建议，因为他们了解情况。2A。考查细节理解。由第二段最后两句可知，作者大胆提醒飞行员(主治医师)放下起落架，第一次感到了大胆说出来的力量，且从此以后在手术室也这样做。3D。考查词义猜测。根据句意“但是我希望，如果我继续鼓励他们，有人会在某一天阻止我犯将起落架升起来这样严重的错误”可知，此处“landing gear up”借指所犯的可能会以生命为代价的错误。4B。考查标题判断。作者将自己从飞行员职业经历中所获取的经验运用到行医生涯中，使自己善于倾听别人的建议，从而使自己成为了一名优秀的医生。B项符合题意。Bxx北京高考Tail SpinTwo dolphins race around in a big pool in the Ocean Park. The smaller dolphin, Grace, shows off a few of her tricks, turning around and waving hello to the crowd. The most amazing thing about her, however，is that shes even swimming at all. She doesnt have a tail.Grace lost her tail as a baby when she got caught up in a fish trap. When the dolphin arrived at the Ocean Park in December xx, she was fighting for her life. “Is she going to make it？” Her trainer, Abbey Stone, feared the worst. Grace did make itbut her tail didnt. She ended up losing her flukes and the lower part of her peduncle. Over the past six years, she has learned to swim without her tail. Dolphins swim by moving their flukes and peduncle up and down. Grace taught herself to move another waylike a fish! She pushes herself forward through the water by moving her peduncle from side to side.The movements put harmful pressure on Graces backbone. So a pany offered to create a manmade tail for her. The tail had to be strong enough to stay on Grace as she swam but soft enough that it wouldnt hurt her.The first time Grace wore the artificial tail, she soon shook it off and let it sink to the bottom of the pool. Now, she is still learning to use the tail. Some days she wears it for an hour at a time，others not at all. “The new tail isnt necessary for her to feel fortable，” says Stone, “but it helps to keep that range of motion (动作) and build muscles (肌肉)”Now，the dolphin is about to get an even happier ending. This month, Grace will star in Dolphin Tale, a film that focuses on her rescue and recovery. Her progress has inspired more than just a new movie. Many people travel from near and far to meet her. Seeing Grace swim with her manmade tail gives people so much courage.5.
