24、trange20A. explanation Bremark Cword Dexample答案:解题导语:本文是夹叙夹议文。每一个妈妈都想成为一个优秀的母亲,但如何成为好母亲,在实际的教育过程中却是个难题。作者通过描述带女儿去博物馆的一次经历,使自己明白父母的行为才是孩子的榜样。父母友好地对待别人,孩子就会潜移默化地学会友好地对待别人。1A解析:根据上文中提到母亲想让孩子受到所有领域里的教育可知,此处是要让孩子对世界了解很多。a lot意为“许多”;a little和a bit意为“一点儿”;lots of意为“许多”,但后要接名词。设空处作know的宾语,只能选a lot,故选A项。2C解析
25、:根据文章第一句“Almost every woman wants to be a good mother.”可知,此处应该是做好作为家长(parent)应做的事情。3D解析:根据下文孩子认为残疾人是在跳舞可知,作者的女儿年龄应该很小,所以此处是说作者在孩子很小的时候就带孩子到博物馆。故选D 项。4D解析:根据第1空后的“about the world”可知,作者认为她的女儿会更多地了解她周围的世界。故选D 项。5C解析:根据上文可知,作者一直想让她的女儿变得更优秀。want sb. to do sth.意为“想让某人做某事”,C 项符合语境。6B解析:attention意为“注意”;visi
26、t意为“参观”;barrier意为“障碍”;admission意为“准许加入”。上一句提到作者带她去了自然历史博物馆,也就是去参观博物馆。故选B 项。7A解析:带孩子去博物馆应该是希望在玩的同时能学到新的东西。have fun意为“玩得开心”,为固定短语。故选A 项。8D解析:根据第13 空之后的“she yelled again”可知,女儿的声音很大,和yell应是同义词。greet意为“问候”;cheer意为“欢呼,喝彩”;complain意为“抱怨”;scream意为“尖叫”。故选D 项。9C解析:根据下文“He loves to dance.”可知,小女孩认为远处的那个人一直在跳舞。故
27、选C项。10A解析:根据句子结构可知,本空和下文的saw是并列的两个谓语动词,所以应是作者转过头看到一个残疾人。turn ones head意为“某人转过头”。故选A项。11B解析:该空所填词作saw的宾补,宾语是一个背部和腿都有问题的残疾人,所以他应该是艰难地(struggle)行走,故选B 项。require意为“要求”;devote意为“致力于,献身于”;learn意为“学习”。12D解析:女儿把残疾人本来的艰难行走说成是在跳舞,作为家长当然是感到尴尬。frustrated意为“懊恼的,沮丧的”;proud意为“骄傲的,自豪的”; confident意为“自信的”;embarrassed
28、意为“尴尬的”。故选D 项。13. B解析:为了避免女儿再犯同样的错误,所以是要在女儿再次叫嚷之前去回答她的问题。before意为“在之前”,符合语境。14A解析:作者不希望自己女儿的言语对这位残疾人造成伤害,所以是希望他没有听到(hear)女儿所说的话。recognize意为“认出;承认”;obey意为“服从;遵守”;identify意为“辨认,确认”。15B解析:通常情况下,跳舞会让人快乐,所以作者就用这个理由来搪塞自己的女儿。根据本段最后一句“It makes me happy.”也可推断该空所填词是happy的同义词。故选joyful,意为“高兴的,快乐的”。16B解析:根据上文可知,
29、作者认为女儿说的话不合适,所以想要为此向残疾人道歉。react意为“反应”;apologize意为“道歉”;introduce意为“介绍”;appeal意为“吸引;呼吁;上诉”。故选B 项,apologize to sb. for sth.意为“为某事向某人道歉”。17A解析:根据下文“He said happily.”可知,这位残疾人脸上带着微笑(smile)。18C解析:残疾人认为小女孩所说的话是他听到的最好的评价,原因是她和别人的观点不一样,可以推断出别人都是嘲笑(laugh at)他。look after意为“照顾”;agree with意为“同意”;care about意为“关心,在
30、乎”。故选C项。19B解析:根据上文可知,作者对女儿的解释正是残疾人想要的,所以作者认为自己这次是做对(right)了。20D解析:根据下文“If you are good to others, your child learns to be good to others.(如果你对别人好,你的孩子也会学着对别人好)”可知,作为父母要以身作则去教育孩子。by example意为“以身作则”。.语法填空阅读下面材料,在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。 (2016兰州高三实战考试)Dear friends,Water is essential for life.Yet mi

36、谓语动词。介词后面应该用动名词,所以填carrying。5is required解析:考查时态、语态及主谓一致。根据整篇文章的时态及still的提示可知,此处应用一般现在时;由于句子的主语与require之间在逻辑上是动宾关系,主语为“a major effort”,所以用一般现在时的被动语态is required。6marks解析:考查时态及主谓一致。根据本句的is可知,此处应用一般现在时;由于主语是this year,为单数,因此应填marks。7to meet解析:考查非谓语动词。此处与8空后的不定式是并列关系,都作is的表语,因此此处应填不定式to meet。8and解析:考查连词。此
37、处应用and连接两个并列的非谓语动词。9an解析:考查冠词。这是人类发展与人类尊严的一件紧迫之事。此处表示泛指“一件”,因此用不定冠词an。10survival解析:考查名词。世界水资源是我们生存的生命线。介词for后面应用提示词的名词形式作其宾语。B卷.阅读理解A(2016海南省高考模拟检测题)Have you ever heard the saying“All roads lead to Rome”?

47、successfully climbed to the top of the highest mountain in Africa, and most importantly, hes changed the attitude of any normal person who watches him compete.The 17yearold teenager has one leg.He was born that way, but his goal is to show its not the one thing that defines him.He would also be the
48、first one to tell you that he just wants to prove to others and himself that hes just like other normal ones.When Calabria was young, his parents tried different prostheses(假肢) to find out which was most comfortable for their son as he tried to keep up with a family, who has a preference for sports.
49、At first, the Calabrias had their middle child in a prosthesis that looked and functioned like a “real” leg, but soon they decided to choose a different path when they found it wasnt beneficial to his movement.Then the family moved him to arm crutches(手杖)and from there a new burst of energy was foun
50、d.Getting others to believe that he could take off on the soccer field took a little bit longer.When the Calabrias moved to Concord, they had a hard time convincing the town soccer program to allow a child like him to compete with ablebodied kids.After months and months of debates and meetings, the

55、ighted that Nicolai can play soccer in the teamDhasnt expected that Nicolai can be allowed to play soccer答案:解题导语:本文是一篇人物传记,主要介绍了天生就只有一条腿的残疾男孩Nicolai成为一名最佳摔跤运动员,且攀登了非洲最高峰,并克服了常人意想不到的困难,像正常人一样驰骋在足球场上的故事。4A解析:细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句“He would also be the first one to tell you that he just wants to prove to othe
56、rs and himself that hes just like other normal ones.”并结合全文的内容可知,本文的主人公Nicolai是一位 17岁的残疾青少年,但他用自己的毅力告诉我们,残疾人也能做正常人能做的事情。故选A项。5B解析:推理判断题。根据第五段内容可知,该段介绍了Nicolai Calabria是如何进入美国康科德社区的足球队,与肢体健全的孩子们一起踢足球的。从该段中“they had a hard time convincing.”可推知他进入球队颇费周折。故选B项。6A解析:词义猜测题。根据划线句子的语境:从那以后,目睹这个使用拐杖的年轻人与其他双腿健全
57、的人一起比赛就成了康科德社区的“a fixed event”,显然划线部分的含义不是“计划的节目”、“额外的比赛”、“特殊的时刻”,而是“必看的节目”。故选A项。7C解析:推理判断题。根据文章最后一段Nicolai的父亲所说的话及最后一句的总结“I just think its a great result”可推知,Nicolai的父亲对他能够在足球队里参加比赛很开心,故选C项。.阅读填空(2016昆明市质量检测)Are you preparing any gifts for your friends now? _1_, but choosing a proper gift can be a
