体裁:说明文 题材:社会生活 主题:北极熊登陆促进旅游业发展
【语篇解读】 本文是说明文。气候变暖导致海冰融化,北极熊登陆,为阿拉斯加的一个小村庄带来了巨大的人气,促进了当地旅游业发展,当地人又用旅游业的收入为北极熊提供积极的保护。
5.解析:细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The far north community lies in an area where increasingly higher temperature has sped up the movement of sea ice,the primary habitat(栖息地)of polar bears.As ice has gradually moved to deep water beyond the continental shelf,more bears are remaining on land to look for food”可知,全球变暖加速了海冰融化,破坏了北极熊原本的栖息地,故越来越多的北极熊待在陆地上以寻找食物,故选B。
答案:B
6.解析:观点态度题。根据第三段的内容可知,随着越来越多的北极熊出现在陆地上,研究人员、生物学家等也越来越多地关注北极熊所处的这一困境,随后,更多游客前往Kaktovik。由此可推知,大众对更多北极熊登陆现象表示关注。故选C项。
答案:C
7.解析:推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Most tourists visit in the fall”“Many tourists stay several days in the village,which has two small hotels”可知,大多数游客会选择在秋季去Kaktovik游览,而且很多游客会在这个小村庄待上几天,而这个小村庄只有两个小旅馆,故可推知在秋季,Kaktovik的旅馆很抢手。
答案:A
8.解析:推理判断题。通读文章可知,因为全球气候变暖,北极熊被迫登陆来寻找食物以生存下去,这本来是北极熊的困境,然而北极熊登陆却为一个小村庄带来了旅游业的发展,这对小村庄来说是一个机遇,同时,村民又利用旅游业收入为北极熊提供更多保护。因此D项“事物都有两面性”符合语境。
答案:D Ⅱ.语法填空
阅读下面的短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
(2019·福州高三质量检测)The information I 1.________(collect) in the last few years leads me to believe that speed reading may be less 2.________(use) than most people think.The claim that you can read and comprehend over 30,000 words per minute is overstated.One researcher proved this in a study where irrelevant and illogical
sentences were added to the text.The “speed readers” 3.________were tested didn't notice the irrelevant lines—the readers who read slowly spotted them immediately.
I've interviewed people who have attended the introductory sessions 4.________(offer)by some speed reading courses. 5.________ (them)stories indicate that improper methods are sometimes used to sell the courses.Here's how:First,you're asked to read a passage from a book 6.________which most persons would be unfamiliar. Your reading speed and comprehension are tested during this exercise.Then,after about half 7.________hour of instruction,another reading test is given.But this time the reading is the one most educated Americans know well—such as Adventures of Huckleberry Finn.Not 8.________(surprising),persons attending these introductory sessions find that their “exit” speed and comprehension are better than their “entry” 9.________(perform).
I'm one of the fiction readers who appreciate the beauty in good writing.Occasionally I'll read a passage or sentence over and over just 10.________(let) the beauty of its construction soak in (渗透).Good writing must be read carefully and thoughtfully to be fully appreciated.
体裁:说明文 题材:文化生活 主题:快速阅读并非那么有用 【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。过去几年“我”收集到的信息表明,快速阅读可能没有大多数人认为的那么有用,仔细阅读才能领略文字的魅力。
1.解析:考查动词的时态。根据该句中的“in the last few years”可知,该处可用现在完成时,意为“过去几年收集到的信息让我相信快速阅读可能没有大多数人认为的那么有用”;收集信息的动作也可以看成从过去开始一直持续到当前的动作,故也可以用现在完成进行时。
故填have collected/have been collecting。
答案:have collected/have been collecting
2.解析:考查形容词。句意参见上题解析。根据空前的“be less”及空后的“than”可知,空处应用形容词,故填useful。
答案:useful
3.解析:考查定语从句。分析该句结构可知,空处引导定语从句,修饰先行词The “speed readers”,且在从句中作主语,表示人,故用who或that引导该定语从句。
答案:who/that
4.解析:考查非谓语动词。根据空后的“by”并结合语境可知,动词offer和其主语the introductory sessions之间为逻辑上的动宾关系,故用其过去分词形式作后置定语。
答案:offered
5.解析:考查代词。根据空前一句中的“I've interviewed people”及空后的“stories”可知,此处表示“他们的故事”,故用形容词性物主代词their。
答案:Their
6.解析:考查介词。分析该句结构可知,该句为“介词+关系代词”引导的定语从句,be unfamiliar with sth.为固定用法,意为“对某事物不熟悉”,故空处应填介词with。
答案:with
7.解析:考查冠词。half an hour意为“半小时”,为固定用法,故用不定冠词an。
答案:an
8.解析:考查副词。此处应用副词修饰整个句子,表示“不足为
奇的是”,故用surprising的副词形式surprisingly。
答案:surprisingly
9.解析:考查词形转换。根据本句中的“their ‘exit’ speed”以及空前的“their entry”可知,空处应用名词;performance意为“表现”时可作可数名词,也可作不可数名词,故填performance(s)。
答案:performance(s)
10.解析:考查动词的不定式。该句意为:我偶尔会反复地阅读一个章节或者一个句子,仅是为了使其结构之美渗透出来。根据句意并分析句子结构可知,此处表示目的,故用动词不定式。
答案:to let Ⅲ.短文改错

After school today,I took a walk in the park,depressing and down.I have made considerable efforts win the talent contest,but I only finished fourth.Just while I was crying,a boy in glasses walked by.He noticed me and came over.He played me a piece of Beethoven's symphony with his mobile phone.Beside,he said Beethoven wrote it as his hearing grew worse.Hearing his word,I was no longer in tears.I came to realize that if we put all our efforts into that we loved,we
