46、-day cross-country train trip;The Magic Mountain in a New England beachside cottage.The Man Without Qualities on a return to Hawaii”等内容可知,作者在旅行中喜欢读名著,故选 C。2What do the underlined words“get bogged down”in Paragraph 2mean?AGet confused.BBe carried away.CBe interrupted.DMake no progress.答案:D 词义猜测题。根据句中
47、“covered some distance several times”和“set it aside for a while”及读后的结果“having forgotten everyones name and social rank.”可知,作者在读“战争”部分时几次合上书,把书放一边。句中画线的“get bogged down”指的是“陷入困境,停滞不前,没有进展”,与 make no progress 同义,故选 D。3Why does the author say reading his favorite books feels like cheating?AHe finishes
48、them quickly.BHe should read something serious.CHe barely understands them.DHe has read them many times before.答案:B 推理判断题。根据第二段最后一句“How appealing to simply fall back on a favoriteonce more into The Waves or Justine,which feels almost like cheating,too exciting and too much fun to properly belong in
49、serious literature.”可知,作者再次读到自己最喜欢的书时,感到非常刺激和兴奋。同时感觉自己兴奋的心情与严肃的作品不适合,所以这时候会有cheating 的感觉,认为自己应该读一些严肃的东西。故选 B。4What can be a suitable title for the text?AThe Books of SummerBMy Summer HolidaysCTo Read or Not to ReadDIts Never Too Late to Read答案:A 标题判断题。文章第一段开头作者就点明 every summer,谈到了每年暑假旅行时喜欢读名著;第二段第一句
50、“But this summer I find myself at a loss.”谈到今年夏天读书的困惑;第三段中的“my favorite cocktail(鸡尾酒)of the summer”把读书和鸡尾酒联系,谈自己读书的感受。所以全文都和夏天读书有关,The Books of Summer 适合作为标题,故选 A。【词汇积累】pairing n.配对 accidental adj.意外的;偶然的 appealing adj.吸引人的;动人的 at a loss 困惑不解 set aside 搁置【佳句背诵】I start every summer with the best of i
51、ntentions:to attack one big book from the past,a classic that I was supposed to have read when young and ambitious.每年夏天,我都会抱着最好的愿望开始:攻读一本过去的大部头著作,这是我年轻雄心勃勃的时候应该读的经典著作。BThe Chinese Tang Dynasty poet Du Fu is often called the sage of poetry.Unlike Li Bai,this poet wrote in various styles,and his works
52、 were often innovative in language and subject matter.His poems were also filled with meaning.His innovation was not at all welcome.The readers of his time rarely showed much appreciation for his original and innovative works.The masses in fact hated and scolded them.Like many artists,Du Fu was only
53、 recognized for his genius long after his death.Du Fu was born in Luoyang of Henan.Although he came from an influential literary family,his early attempts to gain a position in the government by way of the exam system failed repeatedly.He was 43 years old when he finally managed to hold an official
54、position.This was the time when Emperor Xuanzong was attracted to the beautiful Yang Yuhuan and made her his concubine(妃子),which Du Fu severely criticized in his Song of the BeautifulLadies.As the emperor got distracted from important government affairs,some military leaders were becoming too powerf
55、ul.Du Fu took office in 755,and in the same year a rebel leader An Lushan led his army into the capital of Tang Dynasty.The emperor fled to the west and left the governing of the state to his son.Du Fu and his family took the road north to escape the rebels.The poet left his family and tried to get
56、to the headquarters of the new emperor,but he was caught and held prisoner by the rebels in Changan.After order was restored again,Du Fu got back his position in the capital.However,he did not enjoy the favor of the new emperor and was given a minor provincial post.In 759 he finally left this disgra
57、ceful position and spent the rest of his life wandering around the country.篇章导读:本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了唐朝诗人杜甫的生平。5What do we know about Li Bais poems?AThey were consistent in style.BThey were like the poems of Du Fu.CThey used more complex language.DThey were written in various styles.答案:A 推理判断题。根据第一段第二句“U
58、nlike Li Bai,this poet wrote in various styles,and his works were often innovative in language and subject matter.”可知,杜甫的诗歌风格多样,在语言和题材上经常创新,这点跟李白的诗歌不同。由此推断,李白的诗歌风格一致(consistent)。故选 A。6The masses didnt like Du Fus poems because of .Atheir contentsBhis innovative styleCthe difficult languageDthe feeli
59、ngs they convey答案:B 细节理解题。由第二段第二句“The readers of his time rarely showed much appreciation for his original and innovative works.”可知,因为杜甫的诗致力于创新,反而得不到大众的喜爱和欣赏。故选 B。7What can we infer from the third paragraph?ADu Fu didnt like to be an official.BDu Fu was not loyal to the emperor.CDu Fu became an offi
60、cial in his 30s.DDu Fu was concerned about government affairs.答案:D 推理判断题。根据第三段最后一句“This was the time when Emperor Xuanzong was attracted to the beautiful Yang Yuhuan and made her his concubine(妃子),which Du Fu severely criticized in his Song of the BeautifulLadies.”可知,对于唐玄宗和杨贵妃的事情,杜甫在诗歌中加以猛烈抨击,说明他关心政
61、务(Du Fu was concerned about government affairs)。故选 D。8What is the text mainly about?ADu Fus life.BDu Fus poetry.CThe rule of Emperor Xuanzong.DDu Fus political career.答案:A 主旨大意题。综合全文,文章前面对杜甫的诗歌略作介绍,后面重点介绍了他的生平。故本文主要介绍了杜甫的生平。故选 A。【词汇积累】sage n.圣人 innovative adj.创新的distract v.分心【长难句分析】This was the time
62、 when Emperor Xuanzong was attracted to the beautiful Yang Yuhuan and made her his concubine(妃子),which Du Fu severely criticized in his Song of the Beautiful Ladies.此时正是唐玄宗被美丽的杨玉环所吸引的时候,并封她当妃。杜甫在美人歌中严厉批评该行为。分析:此句是主从复合句。主句是 This was the time,when Emperor Xuanzong was attracted to the beautiful Yang Y
63、uhuan and made her his concubine 是定语从句修饰 time,在此从句中,and 连接两个动词 was attracted和 made,which Du Fu severely criticized in his Song of the Beautiful Ladies 是非限制性定语从句,用来解释说明前面整个句子。CRobert Frost(1874 1963)is one of the Americas most beloved poets.He was a contemporary of many modernist poetic movements,but
64、 he wasnt associated with any particular group of poets.He stuck to his own literary beliefs,and as a result,he attracted a good deal of criticism from the literary world.But,it is just because he was such a person and his voice was so original that Frost became so beloved.If you are to choose one o
65、f his poems and read it aloud on a busy street,we are sure that many people will recognize the poem immediately as Frosts.Mending Wall,which is the first poem in North of Boston,Frosts second book of poetry,is one of his most popular poems.It is a poem about two neighbors who fix a rock wall that li
66、es between their homes.“I”want to destroy the wall,and the“neighbor”wants to leave it standing.We just cant get enough of walls,can we?People love boundaries.We love them when were little,protecting our precious toys from our troublesome brothers and sisters.As we get older,we begin to throw around
67、the gentle term“personal space”,as in“GET OUT OF MY ROOM!”In college,we really learn how the idea of“My house is your house”doesnt always result in happy roommate relationships.After we become adults with good jobs and a lot of cool things,we often put up fences,gates,walls,or doors to protect our s
68、tuff and keep the peace.Walls help us protect ourselves,but their downside is that they often keep people from communicating with each other.Mending Wall makes us take a look at how we use our walls and boundaries,and why we use them the way we do.This poem sends a wake-up call to the universe.There
69、 are walls between our hearts.篇章导读:本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了美国著名诗人罗伯特弗罗斯特并赏析了他的名作修墙。9What can we learn about Robert Frost?AHis writing style is special.BHis first poem is about life.CHe often criticized other poets.DHe joined many poetic movements.答案:A 细节理解题。由第一段最后一句“If you are to.as Frosts.”可知,随便拿一首弗罗斯特的诗到街上去
70、朗读,就会有人听出来是他的诗。这说明他的写作风格特别,容易辨认。故选 A。10In Paragraph 3,what does the author want to show?ASharing with others brings us happiness.BThere seems to be lots of walls in our life.CWalls let people know about themselves.DPersonal space is important to everyone.答案:B 推理判断题。作者对弗罗斯特的名作修墙进行简单介绍后,在第三段最后一句“After
71、 we become adults with good jobs and a lot of cool things,we often put up fences,gates,walls,or doors to protect our stuff and keep the peace.”描述了这样一个事实:不仅在人们的小时候,长大后也不断地建立各种围墙。故选 B。11The third paragraph is developed .Aby spaceBby exampleCby timeDby comparison答案:C 推理判断题。在第三段作者按照时间顺序展开全段,指出了人们从孩童时期到长
72、大成人,不断地建立“心墙”。故选 C。12The underlined word“downside”in the last paragraph can be replaced by“”.Apositive partBold wayCnegative partDmajor difference答案:C 词义猜测题。根据最后一段 but 一词的转折可知,第四段讲墙可以保护人的同时,也阻碍了人们的交流。因此 downside 在此处有“不足之处”的意思。故选 C。【词汇积累】boundary n.界线 troublesome adj.令人烦恼的 be associated with 与联系【佳句背诵
73、】Walls help us protect ourselves,but their downside is that they often keep people from communicating with each other.墙有助于我们保护自己,但它的缺点是,它常常使人们无法相互交流。.语法填空(2020安徽省全国示范高中名校联考)Have you ever wondered where Lego(乐高积木)came from?Like many great inventions,the story is not just one of a great idea,1 one of
