A （2020·江蘇南通市·高二月考）
As more and more people speak the global languages of English, Chinese, Spanish, and Arabic, other languages are rapidly disappearing. In fact, half of the 6,000-7,000 languages spoken around the world today will likely die out by the next century, according to the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO). In an effort to prevent language loss, scholars from a number of organizations — UNESCO and National Geographic among them — have for many years been documenting dying languages and the cultures they reflect. Mark Turin, a scientists at the Macmillan Centre Yale University, who specializes in the languages and oral traditions of the Himalayas, is following in that tradition. His recently published book, A Grammar of Thangmi with an Ethnolingustic Introduction to the Speaker and Their Culture, grows out of his experience of living, working, and raising a family in a village in Nepal. Documenting the Thang-mi language and culture is just a starting point for Turin, who seeks to include other languages and oral traditions across the Himalayan reaches of India, Nepal, Bhutan, and China. But he is not content to simply record these voices before they disappear without record.
At the University of Cambridge Turin discovered a wealth of important materials — including photographs, films, tape recording, and field notes — which had remained unstudied and were badly in need of care and protection. Now, through the two organizations that he has founded — the Digital Himalaya Project and the World Oral Literature Project — Turin has started a campaign to make such documents available not just to scholars but to the younger generations of communities from whom the materials were originally collected. Thanks to digital technology and the widely available Internet, Turin notes, the endangered languages can be saved reconnected with speech communities. 1．Many scholars are making efforts to __________. A．promote global languages B．rescue disappearing languages C．search for language communities D．set up language research organizations 2．What does “that tradition” in Paragraph 3 refer to? A．Having full records of the languages. B．Writing books on languages teaching. C．Telling stories about language users. D．Living with the native speaker. 3．What is Turin’s book based on? A．The cultural studies. B．The documents available at Yale. C．His language research in Bhutan. D．His personal experience in Nepal. 4．Which of the following best describe Turin’s work? A．Write, sell and donate. B．Record, repair and reward. C．Collect, protect and reconnect. D．Design, experiment and report.

Like most people living in the suburbs, Janice Monkowski gets around mainly by car. For much of her life, public transit was not even an afterthought. That changed recently when Monkowski, a self-described technophobe (技術(shù)恐懼者), discovered Moovit. When she went to San Francisco to meet friends, the smartphone app let her plan the bus and train trips down to the minute. “Moovit tells me where to walk and how long it might take to catch a bus to get to the train station.” Monkowski says. Much like the navigation app Waze, which follows its users on the road to determine the best driving routes. Moovit collects location data provided by other nearby users to show how to travel along the way with less time and energy between two places. Nir Erez who cofounded Moovit says, “Most commuters don’t know when a bus might arrive-let alone how it might connect with another transit service-or when walking or bicycling might be faster.” In just five years Moovit has had 100 million users. Moovit is available in 44 languages and 78 countries, and commuters in 1, 500 cities rely on it to get to and from work. In 2016, Moovit became the official transit app for the Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, beating out Apple and Google. When public transit doesn’t get a user all the way to where they want to reach, Moovit may connect a user to bike-share programs or services like Uber. As Moovit has grown to 100 employees, with headquarters near Tel Aviv and offices in big cities, such as San Francisco, Athens and Rio it can provide better, more up-to-date information at a lower cost. Best of all: It’s built one data point at a time by people like Monkowski. When you go to San Francisco and don’t want to drive before the city’s “terrible” parking and traffic, Moovit can give you another choice. It is very simple. 5．What is the advantage of Moovit? A．It involves simple procedures. B．It offers the best driving routes. C．It predicts the most efficient route D．It stores freely available information. 6．Why does Moovit win the competition with Apple and Google?
A．It is sold at reasonable prices. B．It provides different language choices. C．It is more popular with sports officials. D．It satisfies the needs of different users. 7．What does the author want to show in the last paragraph? A．The bright future of Moovit. B．The exact locations of Moovit. C．The development of big cities. D．The opinions on public transit. 8．What can be a suitable title for the passage? A．Making bus riding a habit B．Enjoying urban public transit C．Moovit-the the best transit data app D．Moovit-more choices, more convenience
C （2020·衡水市第二中學(xué)高三二模）
As we grow old, we realize that we have so little time to read and there are so many great books that we’ve yet to get around to. Yet re-readers are everywhere around us. For certain fans, re-reading The Lord of the Rings is a conventional practice annually. One friend told me that Jane Austen"s Emma can still surprise him, despite his having read it over 50 times. New sudden clear understandings can be gained from the process of re-reading. Journalist Rebecca Mead, a long-time English woman in New York, first came across George Eliot’s Middlemarch at 17. Since then, she has read it again every five years. With each re-reading, it has opened up further; in each chapter of her life, it has resonated differently. Mead evidenced the large number of ways in which really good books not only stand the test of repeat reads, but also offer fresh gifts each time we crack their spines. These kinds of books grow with us.
Scientists have also recognized the mental health benefits of re-reading. Research conducted with readers in the US found that on our first reading, we are concerned with the “what” and the “why”. Second time round, we’re able to better appreciate the emotions that the plot continues to express. As researcher Cristel Russell of the American University explained. returning to a book “brings new or renewed appreciation of both the great book and its readers.” It’s true that we often find former selves on the pages of old books (if we’re fond of making notes on the pages). These texts can carry us back to a time and place, and remind us of the kind of person that we were then. We"re changed not only by lived experience but also by read experience — by the books that we"ve discovered since last reading the one in our hand. More so than the movie director or the musician, the writer calls upon our imaginations, using words to lead us to picture this declaration of love or that unfaithfulness in life. A book is a joim project between writers and readers, and we must pour so much of ourselves into reading that our own life story can become connected with the story in the book. Perhaps what’s really strange is that we don’t re-read more often. After all, we watch our favourite films again and we wouldn’t think of listening to an album only once. We treasure messy old paintings as objects, yet of all art forms, literature alone is a largely one-time delight. A book, of course, takes up more time, but as Mead confirms, the rewards make it adequately worthwhile. 9．The two books are mentioned in Paragraph 1 mainly to__________. A．a(chǎn)ttract the attention of readers B．introduce the topic of the passage C．provide some background information D．show the similarity between re-readers 10．The underlined expression “crack their spines” in Paragraph 2 refers to ____________. A．recite them B．re-read them C．recall them D．retell them 11．It can be learned from paragraphs 3 and 4 that______________. A．reading benefits people both mentally and physically
B．readers mainly focus on feelings on their first reading C．we know ourselves better through re-reading experience D．we will change writers by reading the books 12．The writing purpose of the passage is to______________. A．call on different understandings of re-reading old books B．a(chǎn)rgue against the mental health benefits of re-reading C．bring awareness to the significance of re-reading D．introduce the effective ways of re-reading old books

Remember there is a difference between news and stories. News should be supported by evidence to be dependable. 19．. Pictures are said to be worth a thousand words. But even photographs can be edited and changed. Even untouched images can be false. For example, old images can be presented as new. Again, it helps to look for the source. Google"s image search can help find where a photo came from. Do not immediately repost what you see A 2018 Twitter study found that false news travels faster than real news, often much faster. That is because these stories often use language designed to create strong emotional reaction. 20．. It is also found that misinformation spreads quickly because people retweet stories based on headlines So read the whole story, investigate the source and consider carefully before reposting to prevent the spread of false information.

?。?020·上海虹口區·上外附中高三三模）Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize in no more than 60 words the main idea of the passage and how it is illustrated. Use your own words as far as possible. In spite of all of the years spent in school preparing to enter the workplace, many recent graduates say that they struggle with the transition from classroom to career world and have difficulty adjusting to life on the job. Writer and editor Joseph Lewis suggests one reason why this is the case. Lewis believes that most of our school experiences — from childhood through university -are fairly predictable, while life in the working world is far more ambiguous. In school, for example, the pattern stays more or less the same from year to year. In the workplace, however, constant change is the norm, and one has to adapt quickly. A project you are working on this month might suddenly change next month or next week, and it’s often hard to anticipate what you’ll be doing six to twelve months from now.
Another problem that graduates entering the workforce encounter is that they are unprepared to think analytically. In school, many students including those in college, spend a lot of time memorizing facts and repeating what they “learned” on tests. But in the workplace employees are often expected to think critically and make decisions about their work, not just follow a supervisor’s instructions.
Finally, many recent graduates say that one of the biggest difficulties they face is adapting to teamwork on the job. In some ways, school does prepare one for collaborative nature of the workplace. Learners sit classes every day with many other students. They must listen to others’ opinions, participate at times in group discussions, and learn how to get along outside the classroom. Nevertheless, in school, a student normally works independently to complete most tasks and receives a grade according to how well he or she has done. In the workplace, however, employees must regularly interact with others and are often dependent on their co-workers for their success.
參考答案
1．B2．A3．D4．C 【分析】
本文是一篇說(shuō)明文。敘述了學(xué)者們正在努力記錄瀕臨消失的語(yǔ)言和文化，來(lái)挽救這些語(yǔ)言。耶魯大學(xué)的科學(xué)家 Mark Turin 專(zhuān)門(mén)研究喜馬拉雅山的語(yǔ)言和口述傳統，并他根據自己在尼泊爾一個(gè)村莊的生活經(jīng)歷寫(xiě)了一本書(shū)。他不只是滿(mǎn)足把這些語(yǔ)言在滅絕前記錄下來(lái)，他要把他們挽救下來(lái)，和現在的語(yǔ)言進(jìn)行重新的連接。
1． 細節理解題。根據文章第二段 In an effort to prevent language loss, scholars from a number of organizations — UNESCO and National Geographic among them — have for many years been documenting dying languages and the cultures they reflect. (為了防止語(yǔ)言流失，許多組織——包括聯(lián)合國教科文組織和國家地理組織——的學(xué)者多年來(lái)一直在記錄正在消亡的語(yǔ)言及其所反映的文化)可知，許多學(xué)者正在努力記錄瀕臨消失的語(yǔ)言和文化，來(lái)挽救這些語(yǔ)言。故選 B。
2． 詞義猜測題。根據第二段的內容可知，很多學(xué)者致力于語(yǔ)言的文化的保護工作，再結合第三段的第一句可知耶魯大學(xué)的 Mark Turin 教授也加入到拯救正在消失的語(yǔ)言的行列中，他想把這些語(yǔ)言全部記錄下來(lái)。由此推知，Mark Turin 教授正在遵循這一傳統就是“將語(yǔ)言的完整記錄”。故選 A。
3． 細節理解題。根據文章第三段 His recently published book, A Grammar of Thangmi with an Ethnolinguistic Introduction to the Speakers and Their Culture, grows out of his experience living, looking and raising a family in a village in Nepal.(他最近出版了一本名為《唐米語(yǔ)法》的書(shū)，書(shū)中用民族語(yǔ)言介紹了唐米人及其文化，這本書(shū)是他在尼泊爾一個(gè)村莊生活、工作和養家糊口的經(jīng)歷)可知，他的書(shū)是根據他在尼泊爾一個(gè)村莊的生活經(jīng)歷寫(xiě)的。故選 D。
4． 推理判斷題。根據文章最后一段 generations of communities from whom the materials were originally collected.和 Turin notes, the endangered languages can be saved and reconnected with speech communities.可知 Turin 的作品是從最初的材料上進(jìn)行的收集，他的作品使瀕臨危險的語(yǔ)言得到了保護，并且與言語(yǔ)重新連接。因此對他的作品做好的描述是具有收集，保護和重新連接的作用。故選 C。
5．C6．D7．A8．D 【分析】
這是一篇說(shuō)明文。文章主要介紹了 Moovit 這一交通應用程序的作用，特點(diǎn)以及發(fā)展。
5． 細節理解題。根據第二段中“Much like the navigation app Waze, which follows its users on the road to determine the best driving routes， Moovit collects location data of nearby users to show how to travel along the way with less time and energy between two locations.（很像導航應用程序 Waze，它跟蹤用戶(hù)在路上的行駛情況，以確定最佳的行車(chē)路線(xiàn)，Moovit 收集附近用戶(hù)的位置數據，以顯示如何在兩個(gè)地點(diǎn)之間以更少的時(shí)間和精力行駛）”可知，Moovit 的優(yōu)點(diǎn)是它預測最有效的旅行。故選 C 項。
6． 推理判斷題。根據第三段“In just five years Moovit has had 100 million users. Moovit is available in 44 languages and 78 countries, and commuters in 1, 500 cities rely on it to get to and from work. In 2016, Moovit became the official transit app for the Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, beating out Apple and Google.( 僅僅 5 年時(shí)間，Moovit 就擁有了 1 億用戶(hù)。Moovit 有 44 種語(yǔ)言和在 78 個(gè)國家可使用，1500 個(gè)城市的通勤者依靠它上下班。2016 年，Moovit 擊敗蘋(píng)果和谷歌，成為巴西里約熱內盧夏季奧運會(huì )的官方交通應用程序)”可推斷，Moovit贏(yíng)得了與蘋(píng)果和谷歌的競爭是因為可以滿(mǎn)足不同用戶(hù)的需求。故選 D 項。
7． 推理判斷題。根據最后一段中“Moovit can provide better, more up﹣to﹣date information at a lower cost. Best of
all: It’s all built one data point at a time by people like Monkowski. When you go to San Francisco and don"t want to drive before the city’s “terrible” parking and traffic, Moovit can give you another option. It’s very simple.”（Moovit 可以以較低的成本提供更好的、更新的信息。最棒的是，它是由像 Monkowski 這樣的人，一次建立一個(gè)數據點(diǎn)。當你去舊金山的時(shí)候，如果你不想在這個(gè)城市“糟糕”的停車(chē)和交通狀況前開(kāi)車(chē) ，Moovit可以給你另一個(gè)選擇。它很簡(jiǎn)單。）可知，作者在最后一段想給我們展示 Moovit 的光明未來(lái)。故選 A 項。
8． 主旨大意題。根據全文的內容可知，本文主要介紹 Moovit 這一交通應用，并結合第三段中“In just several years Moovit has had 100 million users.（僅僅幾年時(shí)間，Moovit 就擁有了 1 億用戶(hù)。）”和最后一段中“When you go to San Francisco and don"t want to drive before the city’s “terrible” parking and traffic, Moovit can give you another option. It’s very simple.（如果你去舊金山，在這個(gè)城市糟糕的停車(chē)和交通面前不想開(kāi)車(chē)，Moovit 可以給你另一個(gè)選擇。它很簡(jiǎn)單。）”可知，Moovit 這一交通應用程序在城市中被廣泛使用，發(fā)展前景廣闊，因此選項 D“Moovit 更多的選擇，更方面”作為標題更合適。故選 D 項。
9．B10．B11．C12．C 【分析】
這是一篇說(shuō)明文。隨著(zhù)我們漸漸變老，我們意識到我們讀書(shū)的時(shí)間很少，有很多好書(shū)，我們沒(méi)有去讀。但是在重新閱讀的過(guò)程中，我們可以獲得新的突然清晰的理解?？茖W(xué)家們還認識到重讀會(huì )給心理健康帶來(lái)好處，重讀也會(huì )讓我們更了解自己。
9． 推理判斷題。根據第一段中 For certain fans, re-reading The Lord of the Rings is a conventional practice annually. One friend told me that Jane Austen’s Emma can still surprise him, despite his having read it over 50 times.(對于某些粉絲來(lái)說(shuō)，每年重讀《指環(huán)王》是一種慣例。一位朋友告訴我，簡(jiǎn)·奧斯汀的《愛(ài)瑪》仍然能給他帶來(lái)驚喜，盡管他已經(jīng)讀了50多遍)以及第二段第一句N(xiāo)ew sudden clear understandings can be gained from the process of re-reading.可知，在重新閱讀的過(guò)程中，可通過(guò)重新閱讀，可以突然獲得新的清晰認識。由此可推知，第一段提到這兩本書(shū)主要是為了引入這篇文章的主題：通過(guò)反復閱讀，可以突然獲得新的清晰的認識。故選 B。
10． 詞義猜測題。根據上文 Since then, she has read it again every five years. With each re-reading, it has opened up further; in each chapter of her life, it has resonated differently.可知，從那時(shí)起，她每五年讀一遍。每重讀一遍，它會(huì )使她豁然開(kāi)朗；在她生命的每個(gè)篇章中，都有不同的共鳴。由此可知，Mead 證明了許多真正的好書(shū)不僅經(jīng)得起反復閱讀的考驗，而且在每次我們重新閱讀它們時(shí)都能提供新鮮的禮物。故劃線(xiàn)短語(yǔ)指的是“重新閱讀它們”。故選 B。
11． 推理判斷題。根據第四段中 It’s true that we often find former selves on the pages of old books (if we"re fond of making notes on the pages). These texts can carry us back to a time and place, and remind us of the kind of person that we were then.可知，的確，我們經(jīng)常會(huì )在舊書(shū)中找到過(guò)去的自己（如果我們喜歡在書(shū)頁(yè)上做筆記的話(huà)）。這些文字可以帶我們回到過(guò)去的時(shí)間和地點(diǎn)，提醒我們那時(shí)的我們是什么樣的人。由此判斷出，通過(guò)重讀，我們更好地了解自己。故選 C。
12． 推理判斷題。根據第二段第一句 New sudden clear understandings can be gained from the process of re-reading.可知，在重新閱讀的過(guò)程中，以突然獲得新的清晰認識。結合文章主要說(shuō)明隨著(zhù)我們漸漸變老，我們意識到我們讀書(shū)的時(shí)間很少，有很多好書(shū)，我們沒(méi)有去讀。但是在重新閱讀的過(guò)程中，我們可以獲得新的突然清晰的理解?？茖W(xué)家們還認識到重讀會(huì )給心理健康帶來(lái)好處，重讀也會(huì )讓我們更了解自己。由此可推知，這篇文章的寫(xiě)作目的是讓人們意識到重讀的重要性。故選 C。
13．A14．C15．B 【分析】
這是一篇應用文。主要介紹小說(shuō)家處女作大獎的通告。
【詳解】
1.細節理解題。
根據第一段第一句“The VCU Cabell First Novelist Award honors an outstanding novelist"s first
