阅读理解 (2017·吉林省长春市高中毕业班第一次调研测试)
When was the last time you did something really fun with one of your parents—just the two of you?
Parents who take their young children to music,swimming and art classes often stop arranging such activities once their kids are older and in school all day.But it doesn’t have to be that way.Doing something enjoyable with your kids just might make you look at each other in a whole new way,especially if you do it through a class or an event.When parent and child become students together,it puts them on the same level,at least for a while.
“I really like parents to come to class with their kids—they start sharing things and talking about what they’re doing and what they like,” said art teacher Pyper Dixon.
However,finding something new in common is a big
choice for them,especially when kids get involved in sports and other afterschool activities.But it’s possible to learn a new skill or hobby together.
That’s certainly true of Lauren,11,from Silver Spring,who is in Dixon’s class with her father,Dennis.“I was just going to drop her off,” Dennis said,“but Dixon persuaded me to stay.”
Now Lauren gets to nag her father about doing his art homework.“He always leaves it to the last minute,” she said.“But then he’ll turn around to do amazing drawings,”
she added.“We have different styles of drawing,so it’s interesting
to talk it over with him.”
Without the Saturday morning art class,Dennis said,he
would be reading the paper,and Lauren would be on her own in her room or on the computer.But they talk more now.“I can’t think of an experience where you communicate with your kid so closely,” he said.
1.The author raises the question at the beginning to________.
A.expect an answer
B.criticize some parents
C.introduce the topic D.support his argument
2.What does Dixon think is the benefit of parent and child studying art together?
A.They will become equal.
B.They will communicate more.
C.The child will learn art much better.
D.The parent will learn something new.
3.The underlined word “nag” in the text probably means________.
A.urge B.help
C.ignore D.teach
4.We can learn from the text that________.
A.Lauren used to talk a lot with her father
B.Dennis enjoys studying art with Lauren
C.Lauren dislikes her father’s drawings
D.Dennis likes playing computer games

2017·湛江市普通高考测试一When you make a mistake,big or small,cherish it as it’s the most precious thing in the world.
Most of us feel bad when we make mistakes,beat ourselves up about it,feel like failures,and get mad at ourselves.
And that’s only natural:Most of us have been taught from a young age that mistakes are bad,and we should try to avoid mistakes.We’ve been scolded when we make mistakes—at home,school and work.Maybe not always,but probably enough times to make feeling bad about mistakes an unconscious reaction.
Yet without mistakes,we could not learn or grow.If you think about it that way,mistakes should be cherished and celebrated for being one of the most amazing things in the
world:They
make
learning
possible;they make growth
and improvement possible.
By trial and error—trying things,making mistakes,and learning from those mistakes—we have figured out how to make electric lights,to paint the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel,and to fly.
Mistakes make walking possible for the smallest toddler,make speech possible,and make works of genius possible.
Think about how we learn:We don’t just consume information about something and instantly know it or know how to do it.You don’t just read about painting,or writing,or computer programming,or baking,or playing the piano,and know how to do them fight away.Instead,you get information about something,from reading or from another person or from observing usually...then you construct a model in your mind...then you test it out by trying it in the real world...then you make mistakes...then you revise the model based on the results of your real world experimentation...and repeat,making mistakes,learning from those mistakes,until you’ve pretty much learned how to do something.
That’s how we learn as babies and toddlers,and how we learn as adults.Mistakes are how we learn to do something new—because if you succeed in something,it’s probably something you already knew how to do.You haven’t really grown much from that success—at most it’s the last step on your journey,not the whole journey.Most of the journey is made up of mistakes,if it’s a good journey.
So if you value learning,if you value growing and improving,then you should value mistakes.They are amazing things that make a world of brilliance possible.
.Why do most of us feel bad about making mistakes?
A.Because mistakes make us suffer a lot.
B.Because it’s a natural part in our life.
C.Because we’ve been taught so from a young age.
D.Because mistakes have ruined many people’s careers.
.According to the passage,what is the right attitude to mistakes?
A.We should try to avoid making mistakes.
B.We should owe great inventions mainly to mistakes.
C.We should treat mistakes as good chances to learn.
D.We should make feeling bad about mistakes an unconscious reaction.
3.The underlined word “toddler” in Paragraph 6 probably means________.
A.a small child learning to walk
B.a kindergarten child learning to draw
C.a primary pupil learning to read
D.a school teenager learning to write
.We can learn from the passage that________.
A.most of us can really grow from success
B.growing and improving are based on mistakes
C.we learn to make mistakes by trial and error
D.we read about something and know how to do it right away
.The author wants to tell us________.
A.what you should do when meeting with difficulties
B.where you can find your mistakes
C.how you can avoid making mistakes
D.why you should celebrate your mistakes

答案: D阅读下列材料,从每题所给的选项中选出最佳选项。Home to me means a sense of familiarity and nostalgia.It's fun to come home.It looks the same.It smells the same.You'll realize what's changed is you.Home is where we can remember pain, love, and some other experiences.We parted here;My parents met here;I won three championships here.
If I close my eyes, I can still have a clear picture in mind of my first home. I walk in the door and see a brown sofa surrounding a low glass-top wooden table.To the right of the living room is my first bedroom.It's empty, but it's where my earliest memories are.
There is the dining room table where I celebrated birthdays, and where I cried on Halloween—when I didn't want to wear the skirt my mother made for me.I always liked standing on that table because it made me feel tall and strong.If I sit at this table, I can see my favorite room in the house, my parents' room.It is simple:a brown wooden
dresser lines the right side of the wall next to a television and a couple of photos of my grandparents on each side.Their bed is my safe zone.I can jump on it anytime—waking up my parents if I am scared or if I have an important announcement that cannot wait until the morning.
I'm lucky because I know my first home still exists.It exists in my mind and heart, on a physical property on West 64th street on the western edge of Los Angeles.It's proof I lived,I grew, and I learned.
Sometimes when I feel lost, I lie down and shut my eyes, and I go home. I know it's where I'll find my family, my dogs, and my belongings.I purposely leave the window open at night because I know I'll be blamed by Mom.But I don't mind, because I want to hear her say my name, which reminds me I'm home.

(2017·合肥市二模,C)
Traditional businessmen feel worried that growing ecommerce will reduce their share of the
market.
According to a survey, 90% of some people's purchases are made on the computer. As they
find that by being able to go online and choose the things that they need to choose, and have them
delivered right to their doorsteps, they could no longer be bothered with driving, the crowds, the
noise of that, and they usually get a better selection.
Cornell University Marketing Professor, MeLaughlin says traditional stores can keep their
customers by offering goods like clothing, which customers may want to see and try on before
purchasing, as well as items that are difficult to ship. He says some traditional stores are also
pleasing customers with services that set up or repair computers and electronics.
Traditional stores also offer a social experience that some shoppers enjoy. There is still a lot
of emotion in the buying decision that takes place. Oftentimes, you need that last sense of “this is
exactly what I want” before you part with money. And you can't always get that online. It's a
rather cold process.
As more and more people have Internet access and smart phones, online commerce is likely
to continue its growth here in the United States and in other countries.

2.According to McLaughlin, some traditional stores are keeping customers by ________.
A.providing customers with extra services
B.inviting customers to try on clothing
C.delivering goods to each doorstep
D.repairing computers and electronics only
答案:A 细节理解题。根据文章第三段的最后一句“He says some traditional stores are also pleasing customers with services that set up or repair computers and electronics.”可以推知,答案A“给顾客提供额外的服务”符合文义。
3.From the 4th paragraph, we know that ________.
A.online shoppers tend to be cold to each other
B.the process of shopping online is full of emotion
