Ⅲ.阅读理解
What can help you make a fortune in the future? Graduating from a top university might not be enough. A new study from the University of Essex in Britain has shown that the more friends you have in school, the more money you'll earn later.
The idea that popularity could have a serious impact on one's earning potential shouldn't come as too much of a surprise. The researchers noted that if you want to get ahead in life, social skills and networking are easily as powerful as talent and hard work.
“If a person has lots of friends, it means that he or she has the ability to get along with others in all kinds of different situations,” said Xu Yanchun, 17, from Nantou High School in Shenzhen, who totally agreed with the recent finding. “Also, friends always help each other. They not only create wider social circles for you but lift your mood when you occasionally feel depressed,” said Xu. She believed that all this helps you “earn a higher salary”.
Maybe that's why some people think the younger generations are in the age of friendaholism(交友狂症). A woman even complained that the networking website Facebook's 5,000friend limit was too low for her large reserve of social contacts.
But what does a friend mean? Should friends be regarded as a form of currency?
“Call me uncool, but I think of a friend as an actual person with whom I have an actual history and whom I enjoy actually seeing. It seems, however, that this is no longer the definition(定义)of ‘friend’,” said Meghan Daum, who works with The Los Angeles Times in the US.
Daum despised(鄙视)the idea that quantity trumps(胜过)quality in the age of friendaholism. She thought the idea of friendship, at least among the growing population of Internet social networkers, was to get as many of notreallyfriends as possible. For example, a friend might be someone you might know personally but who could just as easily be the friend of a friend of some other Facebook friends you don't actually know.
36.What's the main idea of the passage?
A.Making friends is important.
B.Making friends makes you earn more money.
C.Friends give you success.
D.Social skills are important.
37.Which of the following sentences is TRUE?
A.It is surprising that making more money is popular with people.
B.If you want to win in life, social skills are as important as talent and hard work.
C.The young now have friendaholism.
D.Friends do not create your wider social circles but lift your mood when you occasionally feel depressed.
38.What's the opinion of Xu Yanchun about making friends?
A.Making friends may help you a lot in your life.
B.Making friends can get a lot of money.
C.Making friends can make you work hard.
D.Making friends can improve your ability to work.
39.What's the author's attitude?
A.Objective.
B.Subjective.
C.Neutral.
D.Optimistic.
答案
课时作业(一)
.1.D 考查关系副词的用法。where 相当于on which,从句相当于you can read novels on the screen。
2.D 考查冠词。第一空没有说明是哪位军旅歌手的儿子,所以用不定冠词表泛指;the public为固定用法,意为“公众,大众”。
3.A 考查动词短语辨析。agree with “同意,赞成;与……相适应”;agree to “同意,赞成(观点,看法等)”;agree on “就……达成协议”;agree about “对……有相同的看法”。句意为:你看上去很好。我认为三亚的空气和海鲜很适合你。故选A。
4.A 考查强调句及连词辨析。答语“By reading and keeping diaries every day”是表示方式的,所以应该用how(怎么样),强调句 的特殊疑问形式为:疑问词+ is it that+其他成分。
5.C no longer “不再”,常放在助动词或be动词后。上句句意为:你不再是小孩了。你能自己照顾自己了。
6.C 考查动词的时态。This is the first time后的that从句用现在完成时。
7.A 考查强调句结构。该句的陈述语序为:It is why that crime in this area has increased so much over the last 20 years.所以疑问句的句子顺序为A项。
8.D 考查动词短语辨析。hear from sb. “收到某人的来信、电话”;根据语境,第一空处表示“收到约翰的信或接到约翰的电话”;第二空处表示“就见面日期达成一致意见”,所以D项符合语境。
9.C 考查交际用语。句意:“哇,难道这款漂亮的装置就是最流行的iPad 2?我可以看看吗?”“当然可以了。”故选C。
10.D 考查with复合结构。句意为:有这么多的问题要解决,经理感觉就像热锅上的蚂蚁。从the manager felt like a cat on hot bricks看,问题还没有解决,不定式表将来。应选D项。
【思维拓展】
“with+n./pron.+adj./adv./prep./doing/done/to do”结构是高考的重点。with+n./pron.+done(表被动或完成)/to do (表将来)/doing(表进行或主动)。如:(1) With a lot of problems settled, they went to the seashore to spend their holiday.(2) With the boy leading the road, we couldn't get lost.
11.D 考查“with+n.+ 宾补”结构。这里snow和cover是主动关系,故用现在分词。
12.D 考查交际用语。句意:她问:“我们会将会议推迟吗?”“不会吧”,他礼貌地回答道:“这是唯一我们大家都合适的一天。”依据上下文,后者对前者提出的问题表示惊讶,故用not really。 not really “不会,事实上没有”,符合题意。not likely“(表示坚决不同意)绝不可能,绝对不会”;not exactly “(说反话时用)根本不;决不;一点也不;(纠正对方刚说的话)不完全”;not nearly “远非,绝不是”,与语意不符,故选D。
13.B 考查交际用语。句意:“人们应该停用自己的车辆,开始使用公交车。”“对。看样子现在路已经很拥挤了。”exactly “完全对”,符合题意。
14.D 句意:请告诉我你和你的新同学们相处得如何。get on/along with sb.表示“与某人相处”,若说“相处得好”用well,即get on/along well with sb.。此处用how引导宾语从句,相当于对well提问。
15.D what引导宾语从句,从句用陈述语序。A, B语序不对,C项中that应改为what才对。
Ⅱ.在妻子50岁生日时,丈夫送给妻子一份特殊的礼物。那是一本精心制作的书,记录了妻子几十年来对朋友和家庭全部的爱。
16.B 考查形容词。根据本段最后括号里的内容可知:显然,卡罗尔不喜欢“我”为她举办一个生日宴会。
17.C 考查名词。句意为:“我”问:“找几个好友聚餐怎么样?”
18.A 考查名词。由句意可知她说她不喜欢成为大家关注的中心。因为是卡罗尔过生日,她当然会成为大家关注的中心。attention “注意力”,符合语境。
19.D 考查代词。此处表示“我”不想让她生日的那天就这样随便过去——吃史都华牌的冷冻食物,看一个电影视频。
20.C 考查定语从句。which在此处引导非限制性定语从句。
21.B 考查连词。句意为:“我”想了又想,作出决定之后,“我”开始给卡罗尔的朋友们写信。
22.A 考查动词。卡罗尔不想(want)举行生日宴会。第一段的“she didn't want a party”是线索提示,原词再现是完形填空设题的一大特点。
23.D 考查动词。句意为:“我”想给她举办一个书本上的派对。give sb. a party意为“为某人举办一个派对”。
24.A 考查名词。句意为:“我”在一个朋友的建议下买了一本相册(album)。下文中的“more than the album”是线索提示。
25.B 考查动词短语。根据下文可知此处表示“我”把想要的东西不断地放入相册中。pour in “不断涌向”,符合语境。go on “继续”;turn back “往回走”;get away “脱身;逃离”。
26.C 考查情态动词。此处would表示“(过去)常常,总是”。根据句意可知“我”总是在每个工作日快结束的几分钟为妻子制作这本书。
27.D 考查名词。上文内容“…her a party in a book…”暗示,“我”要给卡罗尔做一本书。
28.C 考查介词。根据句意可知“我”搜集到的有她上高中时的照片,我们俩和儿子们在一起的照片等等。with表示“与……在一起”。
29.A 考查形容词。根据句意可知收集到的东西让“我”非常感激我们一起走过的岁月。be grateful for“感激……”。
30.B 考查名词。根据句意可知这份礼物并不仅仅是一本相册。这代表了她对“我”、孩子、她所有的朋友以及家庭的爱和友谊。
31.B 考查动词。在这本书的每一页中,你都能“读”到这些。
32.A 考查动词。由句意知“我”把这本书包装好之后带回家中。take it home “带回家”。
33.D “我”说:“这可不是一顿冷冻的饭菜或者是一个视频,而是你值得拥有的东西。”what you deserve为表语从句。
34.C 考查副词。句意为:她哭了。实际上,她不喜欢哭。但是我认为这本书感动了她。really “实际上”。
35.B 句意为:每一次“我”都提醒她整理出这本书对“我”来说也是一个礼物。空白处之后为宾语从句,从句中不缺少句子成分,因此用that连接。
Ⅲ.文章主要介绍了交朋友在生活中的重要性,对人们的工作和生活有很大的帮助。
36.C 主旨大意题。文章介绍了交朋友在你的生活中很重要,对你的工作和生活有很大的帮助。C项的说法很全面,故选C项。
37.B 事实细节题。从第二段的The idea that popularity could have a serious impact on one's earning potential shouldn't come as too much of a surprise可知A项是不正确的;根据第四段的Maybe that's why some people think the younger generations are in the age of friendaholism. 可知C项的说法不正确;D选项中的not…but…意思是“不是……而是……”,而文章中第三段They not only create wider social circles for you but lift your mood when you occasionally feel depressed…中的not only…but also…意思是“不但……而且……”,故D项说法也不正确;B项从第二段的The researchers noted that if you want to get ahead in life, social skills and networking are easily as powerful as talent and hard work.可看出是正确的。故选B项。
38.A 判断推理题。从文章第三段可推出,答案应该选A项。
39.A 观点态度题。从整篇文章看,作者的态度应该是客观的。objective “客观的”;subjective “主观的”;neutral“中立的”;optimistic “乐观的”。故选A项。
