高考提能练(三) Module 3My First Ride on a Train.阅读理解A2019昆明调研 Nine months ago, I was packing my daughters backpack with new school supplies, wondering how I was going to send her off to kindergarten. I stood on the playground, tears pouring down my face because I wasnt ready for this first day of kindergarten but she was ready. Today I will be standing on the playground, once again with tears, because this precious time went by too quickly. This week I realized that I never told you “thank you”. I dont know how to express a mothers thanks in the way a teacher deserves.We first met you at the open house the week before school started and I immediately knew you would be the type of teacher we would appreciate forever. While the students lined up for the day, you touched each one on the shoulder as you greeted them. If a student was having a tough morning, you quietly held his hand and walked him into the school.I got to know you as I volunteered in the lunch room. You made sure your students were all ready for lunch before you went on your own lunch break. You kept track of their big things and small things, because as a veteran kindergarten teacher, you know that the small things are the big things. I loved the way you made each student feel special. You helped them fall in love with school, which is so important at the start.To all of the teachers in the world who are like you, I wish you knew how grateful parents are for you. We adore you, respect you, and appreciate you. We dont tell you enough we probably dont tell you ever. I wish we could take you with us to the next 12 grades.体裁：记叙文题材：家校关系主题：感激师恩【语篇解读】本文主要描述了一位幼儿妈妈表达对幼儿园老师的感激。1Why did the authors tears come down on her daughters first day of kindergarten?AShe hadnt made full preparations for her daughter.BHer daughter wasnt willing to go to kindergarten.CShe felt worried about her daughters being away.DHer daughter wasnt familiar with the teachers.答案与解析：C考查细节理解。根据第一段中的“I stood on the playground, tears pouring down my face because I wasnt ready for this first day of kindergarten but she was ready”可知，作者落泪的原因是自己心里未做好面对孩子离开自己去上幼儿园的事实的准备。故C项为正确答案。根据第一段首句中的“Nine months ago, I was packing my daughters backpack with new school supplies”可知，作者对孩子入园前的各项物品的准备是充分的，故A项错误；B、D两项均为无中生有。2The author noticed the teachers characteristics when _.Ashe stood on the playgroundBshe was at the open houseCshe said goodbye to the teacherDshe worked as a teacher at lunch time答案与解析：B考查细节理解。根据第二段首句“We first met you at the open house the week before school started and I immediately knew you would be the type of teacher we would appreciate forever”可知，在开学前一周的校园开放参观日当天，作者就看出了孩子的老师将会是自己永远感激的人。3What does the underlined word “veteran” in Paragraph 3 mean?ABeautiful.

Each one of these different types of ways of communicating is obviously different between men and women.Many different studies show that men tend to talk much more than women. It has also been proven that women tend to speak faster than men; this is due to the fact that women tend to be interrupted more often than men are, and also have the ability to speak more clearly, precisely，and more quickly than men. In one study it was found that women spoke for an average of three minutes describing a painting, as opposed to the thirteenminute average it took men to describe it.Men and women also tend to have a very different nonverbal way of communicating, which can also make it very hard for one another to understand what the opposite sex is trying to say. Mens body language is much more reserved when they are talking to women. Men tend not to make as much eye contact and they generally stay farther away from women when talking to them. Men avoid other peoples body space while talking, and they also tend to sit back when talking. All of these have given off the impression of disinterest or boredom. Women are by far better listeners and much more enjoyable to talk with and they tend to raise more topics for conversation.Women also make it clearer whether or not the conversation is going somewhere or just stuck in neutral. After learning about our styles of communicating with each other, I have decided that although men have not quite mastered communicating, what fun would it be if we all spoke the same “language”？ The little games men and women play with each other while conversing would be lost. The question everyone asks himself or herself after talking with someone of the opposite sex, “I wonder if theres something there？” would no longer exist.体裁：说明文题材：性别差异主题：性别差异导致沟通方式不同【语篇解读】本文主要介绍了男性和女性因性别差异而导致在沟通方式上也有所不同的现象。【难句分析】Men and women also tend to have a very different nonverbal way of communicating, which can also make it very hard for one another to understand what the opposite sex is trying to say.分析：本句是一个复合句。which引导非限制性定语从句，在从句中作主语，指代前面的整个句子；it作形式宾语，不定式to understand. to say作真正的宾语；what引导宾语从句，在宾语从句中作宾语。译文：男性和女性在非语言的表达方式上通常也是不同的，这也让彼此在理解对方所说的话上变得非常困难。5What does the underlined word “this” in Paragraph 2 refer to?AThe differences between mens and womens languages.BThe different speed of mens and womens speech.CThe ability of mens and womens spoken language.DThe nonverbal vocabulary of men and women.答案与解析：B考查代词指代。由this承接第二段中的“It has also been proven that women tend to speak faster than men”可推知，此处的this指代女性比男性说话快的现象，故选B。6In what way do men and women differ according to the third paragraph?ASpeed of understanding.BUnderstanding of speech roles.CPoliteness of communication.DApplication of body language.答案与解析：D考查推理判断。根据第三段的整体内容，尤其是该段第二句“Mens body language is much more reserved when they are talking to women”可推知，本段主要讲的是男性和女性在非语言表达方式上的不同，即肢体语言使用上的差异，故选D。7What is the authors attitude to the differences between mens and womens communication?ACautious. BFavorable.CAmbiguous. DSkeptical.答案与解析：B考查观点态度。根据最后一段第二句和第三句“After learning about our styles of communicating with each other, I have decided that although men have not quite mastered communicating, what fun would it be if we all spoke the same language？The little games men and women play with each other while conversing would be lost”可推知，作者对男性和女性在沟通的差异性上持赞成态度，故选B。cautious“谨慎的”；favorable“赞成的”；ambiguous“模棱两可的”；skeptical“怀疑的”。8What is the best title for the text?AWomen, born excellent talkersBMens and womens social rolesCVocabulary and communicationDOpposite gender, different language答案与解析：D考查标题判断。根据第一段的话题导入，并结合全文的整体内容可推知，本文主要讲的是男性和女性因性别差异而导致在沟通方式上也有所不同，故选D。.七选五2019惠州调研 By 2025, water shortage will be a big problem for about 1.8 billion people. In a world where water resource is increasingly short, nations cannot afford to waste it. _1_ After we use water in our homes and businesses, it is washed away, and takes many valuable resources with it.Waste water is rich in carbon and nutrients. _2_ A number of nations and major cities have already built waste water treatment plants. They can effectively recover nutrients and bioenergy, and produce “new water” that can be reused. But more than 80% of all waste water still currently flows into natural ecosystems, polluting the environment and taking valuable nutrients and other recoverable materials with it._3_ This is still better than the situation in smaller cities. In Latin American countries, those living in small and mediumsized cities at most treat it in the form of septic tanks (化粪池) that lack regular and proper maintenance.Imagine that outside one of these small cities lies a lovely piece of land: on the surface it is pleasingly built and provides habitats for local wildlife. Beneath the surface is a wetland that treats waste water and produces energy. The energy produced saves families from having to use firewood collected in the wild. This is not a dream project. _4_ A team of scientists have been looking into the potential of constructed wetland environments. Having analyzed 800 examples of biomass in more than 20 countries, they found that, depending on climate and the type of plant used in the construction of this type of wetland, up to 45 hectares of land could be irrigated with waste water. _5_ABut that is exactly what we do.BThis can provide easy access to clean water.CThere is no longer any good reason to waste any type of water.DA constructed wetland environment is already in practice on a small scale.EThis would reduce the need for fresh water for irrigation and energy for pumping.FIf collected and treated properly, it could provide “new water”， fertilizer, and energy.GAlthough waste water systems in large cities are effective, the whole procedure usually costs much.体裁：说明文题材：环保主题：世界水资源【语篇解读】本文主要介绍了当前世界水资源的现状以及有效利用水资源的方法。1答案与解析：A上文说在水资源短缺的大环境下，很多国家不能承担浪费(的后果)，下文说我们用完水后，就直接把水冲走。根据上下文可知，A项“但是那正是我们所做的”与此处匹配，起承上启下作用，故选A。2答案与解析：F上文说废水富含碳元素和养分，而F项说如果收集和处理得当，它就能提供“新的水”、肥料和能量，前后形成语义上的衔接，故选F。3答案与解析：G下文讲述的是拉丁美洲的中小城市的废水处理系统缺乏常规和合适的维护，而G项提到大城市的废水处理系统有效但成本高，与本段内容吻合，故选G。4答案与解析：D上文提到在这些小城市建造湿地环境的设想，下文提到已经有科学家在研究建造的湿地环境的潜力了，由此可知，D项“建造的湿地环境已经在小范围的实践中了”符合语境。5答案与解析：E上文讲述的是这种解决方案的另一种好处是人们可以用废水灌溉农田，而E说这可以减少用淡水灌溉的需求及抽水所需的能量，前后语意衔接，故选E。.短文改错2019辽宁联考 Last weekend, after pay a visit to the city of New York, I visited the National Air and Space Museum of the Smithsonian Institution, where lies in Washington, DC.The museum, which covers a area of 18,000 square meters, is made of 24 exhibition halls.
