2019年高考英语阅读理解一轮练（2）ASome years ago, writing in my diary used to be a usual activity. I would return from school and spend the expected half hour recording the days events, feelings, and impressions in my little blue diary. I did not really need to express my emotions by way of words, but I gained a certain satisfaction from seeing my experiences forever recorded on paper. After all, isnt accumulating memories a way of preserving the past?When I was thirteen years old, I went on a long journey on foot in a great valley, well equipped with pens, a diary, and a camera. During the trip, I was busy recording every incident, name and place I came across. I felt proud to be spending my time productively, dutifully preserving for future generations a detailed description of my travels. On my last night there, I wandered out of my tent, diary in hand. The sky was clear and lit by the glare of the moon, and the walls of the valley looked threatening behind their screen of shadows. I automatically took out my pen.At that point, I understood that nothing I wrote could ever match or replace the few seconds I allowed myself to experience the dramatic beauty of the valley. All I remembered of the previous few days were the dull characterizations I had set down in my diary.Now, I only write in my diary when I need to write down a special thought or feeling. I still love to record ideas and quotations that strike me in books, or observations that are particularly meaningful. I take pictures, but not very often only of objects I find really beautiful. Im no longer blindly satisfied with having something to remember when I grow old. I realize that life will simply pass me by if I stay behind the camera, busy preserving the present so as to live it in the future.I dont want to wake up one day and have nothing but a pile of pictures and notes. Maybe I wont have as many exact representations of people and places; maybe Ill forget certain facts, but at least the experiences will always remain inside me. I dont live to make memories-I just live, and the memories form themselves.1.Before the age of thirteen, the author regarded keeping a diary as a way of _.A. observing her school routineB. expressing her satisfactionC. impressing her classmatesD. preserving her history2.What caused a change in the authors understanding of keeping a diary?A.A dull night on the journey.B. The beauty of the great valley.C.A striking quotation from a book.D. Her concerns for future generations.3.What does the author put in her diary now?A. Notes and beautiful pictures.B.

After all, isnt accumulating memories a way of preserving the past?”可知，13岁以前，作者把写日记看作保留过去的一种方式。3.B 【解析】细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Now, I only write in my diary when I need to write down a special thought or feeling. I”可知，现在作者在日记中加入了自己特殊的想法和感情。4.A 【解析】推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的“I realize that life will simply pass me by if I stay behind the camera, busy preserving the present so as to live it in the future.”可知，作者认为过有意义的生活就是体验生活，而不是记录生活。BThe other morning on the subway I sat next to an attractive young blonde woman who was reading something on her iPad.She was very welldressed，carrying a Prada bag with tastefully applied makeup indeed，she had an unmistakable air of wealth，material success and even authority.I suspected she worked as a highlypaid Wall Street lawyer or stockbroker or something of that sort.So，I was curious to see what she was so focused on.The Wall Street Journal perhaps？The Economist?Quite the contrary；rather，she was concentrating on a romance novel.Then I realized that I have known many women who love romance novelssmart，attractive，successful，“liberated”，modern females who nonetheless find some kind of deep satisfaction and thrill from those hyperromantic，artificial and extremely unrealistic tales of handsome，manly heroes falling in love with virginal women，enduring a series of adventures，then no doubt having a happy ending.These_romance_stories_are_to_literature_what_hot_dogs_are_to_fine_food.Yet，the genre(体裁) remains enormously popular.Consider some of these surprising statistics from the good folks at the Romance Writers of America(RWA)：*More than 9,000 romance titles were released last year，with sales of about $1.44 billion (more than triple the revenues generated by classic literary fiction)*More than 90 percent of the market are women (okay，thats not at all surprising)*Readers are typically women between the ages 30 and 54 who are themselves involved in a romantic relationship (betraying the stereotype that only lonely women long for these tales of love and adventure)*Almost 40 percent of romance book consumers have an annual ine of between $50,000 and $99,900 (placing them firmly in the middle class)I had thought that romance novels accounted for a very small share of the literary market，so I was quite surprised that this part has such enormous popularity.But I must wonder why so many womenforty years after the womens liberation movement continue to indulge in the fanciful tales?Im not sure if it represents a kind of “rejection” of the womens liberation movement，but clearly something is missing in the lives of contemporary ladies.A romance author named Donna Hatch who focuses on the Regency period (early 19th century Britain) explained the appeal of such books this way：“Regency men were civilized and treated women with courtesy.When a lady entered the room，gentlemen stood，doffed their hats，offered an arm，bowed，and a hundred other little things I wish men still did today.But they were also very athletic；they hunted，raced，boxed，rode horses.They were manly.Strong.Noble.Honorable.And that is why I love them！”Mrs. Hatch may have expressed the secret desires and attitudes of untold millions of her peersthat is，in the early 21st century，have women grown tired of the burdens and expectations that the “freedoms” they have gained give them？Is this a rejection of modern feminism？Do women long for days of old when men were masculine gentlemen and women were feminine and protected as precious treasures and regarded as possessions?Perhaps most women (even the ones who get lost in romance novels) do not want to go all the way back but it is obvious，_.【解题导语】落难少女情结：现代女性喜爱阅读言情小说的背后。1. What is the function of the opening paragraph?ATo summarize the whole passage.BTo prove the authors argument.CTo lead in the main topic of the passage.DTo raise problems that will be solved later.解析：选C。推理判断题。本文第一段讲述的是作者在地铁上的一次偶遇，由此引出下文对“现代女性喜爱阅读言情小说的背后”的深思。即第一段为引子，引出文章的话题。故该题正确答案为C项。2What does the underlined sentence in the third paragraph imply?ARomance novels are satisfying and thrilling.BRomance novels are not of much “nutrition”CRomance novels are as popular as hot dogs.DRomance novels are an essential part of contemporary life.解析：选B。句意推测题。因为“A is to B what C is to D”：A之于B就像C对于D一样。故该句句意应为：言情小说对于文学而言就像热狗对于好的食物一样。且根据有转折意义的下句：但是言情小说却非常流行。可知，该句应是用贬义词来描述言情小说，说其没有营养，故该题正确答案为B项。3In the authors opinion，what is missing in the lives of contemporary women? AAuthority. BDignity.CLiberty. DCare.解析：选D。推理判断题。A.Authority.威信；B.Dignity.尊严；C.Liberty.自由；D.Care.关爱；根据文章倒数第三段可推知，作者认为在当代女性生活中逐渐消失的是D.Care.关爱。4Which sentence can be put in the blank in the last paragraph?Athey prefer tales of innocent romance to classicsBthey are unhappy with how the world has turned outCtrue love described in romance novels does exist in realityDromance novels provide them with an access to society解析：选B。推理判断题。该题重在寻找关联词和关键词。该句中的连词but及选项B中的unhappy是该题的关键点。故该题正确答案为B项。C阅读下列短文, 从给的四个选项 (A、B、C和D) 中, 选出最佳选项。Close your eyes for a minute and imagine what life would be like if you had a hundred

a trophy(奖杯)?If the decision is up to Carol Dweck, the answer would likely be no.Shes a psychology professor at Stanford University, California.She says a player doesnt have to be the best to get a trophy.But those who receive an award should have to work for it.She suggests trophies go to the most improved player, or the one who contributed most to the team spirit, as well as to those who play the best.“The trophy has to stand for something,” Dweck told TFK.“If we give a trophy to everyone, then the award has no value.” Dweck argues that giving kids trophies for particular reasons, such as improving in a sport, teaches kids that adults value hard work and trying our best.Others say that theres no harm in giving awards to all kids who play a sport, regardless of how they played or whether or not they improved.“I think we should encourage kids participation in sports,” says Kenneth Barish, a psychology professor at Weill Cornell Medical College, in New York City.“A trophy is one way to encourage kids efforts.”Barish argues that when we single out only the best or even the most improved player with a trophy, we are teaching kids the wrong lesson.We are sending the message that winning is everything.“Winning is only part of the equation (等式),” Barish told TFK.“Playing sports also teaches kids about teamwork and the importance of exercise.”There will be plenty of opportunities for kids to learn about petition as they get older, says Barish.Theyll soon realize that only one soccer team wins the World Cup and only one football team wins the Super Bowl.For now, he thinks theres nothing wrong with letting all kids who play a sport feel like winners.That means trophies for everyone.1.According to Carol Dweck, which player should receive a trophy?A.Tony, the most attractive player of the soccer team.B.David, a soccer player who is both clever and funny.C.Peter, who is ready to help his partners to score goals.D.Jim, a soccer player who tries his best to win the game.答案:C解析:推理判断题。根据第二段可知,CarolDweck认为,获奖的运动员未必是最好的。她认为,进步最大的,对团队精神贡献最多的和表现最佳的运动员都应获奖。2.Which of the following statements would Kenneth Barish agree with?A.There is no sense in giving a trophy to everyone.B.Kids fond of playing sports should be rewarded.C.Kids should be given trophies for trying their best.D.Its necessary to encourage kids participation in sports.答案:D解析:细节理解题。根据第五段可知,KennethBarish认为,我们应该鼓励孩子参加体育活动。颁发奖杯是一种激励方式。3.Theunderlinedphrase“singleout”inParagraph6probablymeans“”.A.honourB.chooseC.valueD.stress答案:B解析:词义猜测题。根据第六段可知,Barish认为,当我们挑选出最佳球员或进步最大的球员并授予他们奖杯时,给孩子传递了一个错误信号:获胜就是一切。
