　　高考题型提能练(二十三)　Unit 23

　　Ⅰ.阅读理解

　　A

　　It is a tall tale that terrifies most young children. Swallow a piece of chewing gum and it will

　　remain in your body for seven years before it is digested. An even worse tale is that swallowed

　　gum can wrap itself around your heart.

　　But what does happen if you should accidentally eat a stick of gum? Chewing gum is made

　　out of gum base, sweeteners, coloring and flavoring. The gum base is pretty indigestible—it is a

　　mixture of different ingredients (成分) that our body can't absorb.

　　Most of the time, your stomach really cannot break down the gum the way it would break

　　down other foods. However, your digestive system has another way to deal with things you

　　swallow. After all, we eat lots of things that we are unable to fully digest. They keep moving

　　along until they make it all the way through the gut (肠子) and come out at the other end one or

　　two days later.

　　The saliva (唾液) in our mouths will make an attempt at digesting chewing gum as soon as

　　we put it in our mouths. It might get through the shell but many of gum's base ingredients are

　　indigestible. It's then down to our stomach muscles—which contract and relax, much like the

　　way an earthworm moves—to slowly force the things that we swallow through our systems.

　　Swallowing a huge piece of gum or swallowing many small pieces of gum in a short time can

　　cause a blockage within the digestive system, most often in children, who have a thinner digestive

　　tube than adults—but this is extremely rare.

　　文章大意：本文为一篇科普类说明文。误食口香糖是不是像大人吓小孩子那样可怕呢？本文对此进行了分析。

　　1．Children might feel terrified after swallowing chewing gum mainly because ________.

　　A．they believe the tall tales about chewing gum

　　B．chewing gum will stay in their body for years

　　C．their heart will be wrapped by chewing gum

　　D．chewing gum is indigestible for children

　　答案：A　细节理解题。根据文章第一段第一句“It is a tall tale that terrifies most young children.”以及对第二、三句话的理解可知，答案A符合文义。B、C两项只是分别说明了tall tale的内容，故排除。

　　2．What happens to the food that can't be fully broken down?

　　A．It remains in our digestive system forever.

　　B．It will be eventually moved out of our body.

　　C．It will fight against the power of the gut.

　　D．It will stick to the gut for one or two days.

　　答案：B　细节理解题。根据文章第三段最后两句“After all, we eat lots of things that we are unable to fully digest. They keep moving... come out at the other end one or two days later.”可知，答案B符合文义。

　　3．The word It (in the 4th paragraph) refers to

　　________.

　　A．The attempt

　　B．The salvia

　　C．The shell

　　D．The gum base

　　答案：B　指代判断题。根据对文章第四段前两句的理解可知，此处的It是指第四段第一句中的The saliva(唾液)，故答案B符合文义。

　　4．What would be the best title for text?

　　A．How does our digestive system work?

　　B．Can chewing gum be swallowed by kids?

　　C．Does swallowing chewing gum matter?

　　D．Why swallowing chewing gum frightens kids?

　　答案：C　标题概括题。文章第一段由一个使小孩子害怕的说法导入话题，下文是对口香糖进入肚子后会怎样的一个科学解释，由此可推知，选项C“误食口香糖要紧吗”最适合作为文章标题。

　　B

　　(2016.淮北五校联考)This is the most exciting kayaking expedition (皮划艇探险) possible for beginner kayakers. You can expect to experience a whole range of different conditions and scenery. This expedition is a total of 8.27 km in distance and it actually enters the streams in the North of Ubin and exits in the South.

　　Three and a half kilometers of pure mangroves (红树林), makes this the longest pure mangrove kayaking expedition in Singapore. The distance spent inside the mangrove gives you the maximum opportunity to witness wildlife within the mangrove eco­system. Come

　　to experience the challenge of operating your kayak through the labyrinth (迷宫)

　　of waterways and be amazed at the calm and quiet beauty of the wetlands. This last corner of natural wilderness in Singapore is so inaccessible, that very, very few have ever experienced it — which makes this a truly special program.

　　despite only hitting the water at 12：00.

　　Traveler B: The guides were nice, however the biggest disappointment was the timing. We thought we were going for a 4­hour kayak but were back in 2 hours and that included the prekayak safety talk.

　　Chinese writer Mo Yan’s Nobel Prize for Literature might ignite an explosion of global interest in Chinese literature and lead to more titles translated into English，European experts say.

　　“Hopefully，the award means more people will read Chinese literature and more works will get translated，” says Michel Hockx，professor of the Languages and Cultures of China and Inner Asia from University of London.“Many very good Chinese writers have been accepted globally for a long time already.Mo Yan is probably the most translated Chinese writer alive，with at least five of his novels made available in English over the past 20 years.”

　　Jonathan Ruppin，web editor of bookseller Foyles，says Mo’s win coincides with growing interest in Chinese literature and recognizes the talents of a distinctive and visionary (富于幻想的) writer.“We are very excited by the fact that English translations

　　of

　　more

　　of

　　his

　　books

　　should

　　now

　　become available，”

　　Ruppin says.He made the comment after Mo became the first Chinese citizen to win the Nobel Prize for Literature in its century­long history.

　　As

　　East­West

　　cultural

　　exchange

　　has

　　been

　　booming，Chinese literature has been attracting growing attention in recent years.Hockx explains，“It’s mainly because there are many more opportunities for Chinese writers to visit other countries，to publish their works outside China and to interact with readers abroad.At the same time，more and more people globally are learning Chinese and taking an interest in the Chinese language and culture.”

　　University of Oxford lecturer in modern Chinese literature Margaret Hillenbrand says，“The obvious reason for the growing global presence of Chinese literature is the growing global presence of China itself.People have come to realize that there is a serious knowledge deficit (缺少) between China and its international counterparts—in particular，China knows incomparably more about Europe and America than the other way round—and reading Chinese literature is an effective，simple means of solving that gap.”

　　．The underlined word “ignite” in Paragraph 1 probably means “________”．

　　A．start out

　　B．burn up

　　C．set off D．appeal to

　　．Chinese literature has been attracting growing attention mainly because________.

　　B．The Nobel Prize for Literature has a history of hundreds of years.

　　C．In the past，no Chinese writers were accepted outside China.

　　A．China knows more about Europe and America than before. B．China knows more about Europe and America than they know about China.

　　C．China，Europe and America know one another more than before.

　　D．Compared with America，China knows more about Europe.
