　　（时间：分钟）维A 阅读理解

　　2017·江苏卷)In Asia，there are special competitions where kites have complex designs and are fitted with instruments that make musical sounds as the wind blows through them.Although all kites have a similar structure (结构)，they are widely different in size and shape.Kite­fighting competitions are also held，in which competitors use their kites to attack and bring down their opponents'(对手) kites or cut their strings(线)．

　　For more than 15 years，the Big Wind Kite Factory has been giving kite­making and kite­flying classes for the children on an island in Hawaii.In its kite­making lessons，students can make kites in as little as 20 minutes！Children as young as four years old can learn how to fly a kite.Jonathan Socher and his wife Daphne started the kite factory in 1980.Their kites are made of nylon(尼龙)．Their designs are Hawaiian themes created by Daphne.The designs are cut out of the nylon with a hot knife that seals the edges and then fastened directly onto the kite.

　　The kite that is used to give lessons is a regular diamond kite with a rainbow pattern.The difference between this kite and the ones they make during the lessons is that it is a twostring controllable kite.Big Wind employees fly the kite and for a few minutes show students how pulling on one line and then on the other controls the direction the kite goes in.Then the controls are given to the students.

　　Jonathan insists that it is not necessary to make a huge impressive kite to have fun making and flying kites.Even the simplest structure can work，and can give hours of fun.Go on，give it a try!

　　【语篇解读】 一家风筝厂15年来一直坚持为夏威夷一座岛屿上的孩子开设制作风筝和放风筝的课程。

　　1．Which of the following is true according to the text?

　　A．A hot knife is used to iron the nylon.

　　B．Children never fly kites on their own in flying lessons.

　　C．Kite strings must not be cut in kite­fighting competitions.

　　D．Daphne designs kites for the Big Wind Kite Factory.

　　答案　D　[考查细节理解。根据第二段最后一句可知，使用加热过的刀是切割尼龙，而不是熨烫尼龙，故A错。B项与第三段最后一句“Then the controls are given to the students.”相悖。根据第一段最后一句可知C项错误。由第二段倒数第二句和倒数第四句可知D项表述正确。]

　　2．What is different about the kite used for flying lessons?

　　A．It has two strings.

　　B．It is simple in design.

　　C．It has a rainbow pattern.

　　D．It is shaped like a diamond.

　　答案　A　[考查细节理解。根据第三段第二句“The difference between this kite and the ones they make during the lessons is that it is a two­string

　　controllable kite.”可知，与孩子们在制作课上制作的风筝不同的是飞行课上使用的风筝是双线控制的，故选A。]

　　3．According to Jonathan，what do you need to have fun with kites?

　　A．A large kite.

　　B．Any type of kite.

　　C．A complex structure.

　　D．A kite that impresses others.

　　答案　B　[考查推理判断。最后一段表明的是Jonathan的观点。根据他的观点可推知，他认为即使构造最简单的风筝也可以给你带来快乐，不一定非要制作大而华丽的风筝，故选B。]

　　4．What is mainly described in the text?

　　A．A kite factory.

　　B．Kite­flying lessons.

　　C．Special competitions.

　　D．The kite­making process.

　　答案　A　[考查主旨大意。通读全文可知，本文主要介绍了一家风筝厂15年来一直坚持为夏威夷一座岛屿上的孩子开设制作风筝和放风筝的课程，故选A。B、C、D三项只是文章的细节，并不是主旨。]

　　Just weeks after a fire roared

　　through

　　her apartment complex，Jessica Arias was looking on the bright side.Arias says she has plenty to be thankful for—she is already living in a new place，working on replacing her wardrobe and belongings.

　　Arias was among the 32 residents displaced by a kitchen fire that spread through the Radcliffe Apartments at 366 W．Olive Ave，on the morning of Oct.28，damaging 17 units.

　　Things looked bleak for Arias on the day of the fire，when she first spoke to the Sunnyvale Sun，but within the past few weeks，Arias has managed to turn her file around.Just a few days before Thanksgiving，she talked about what it has been like to rebuild her life.

　　“At least I have my health，and that is what is most important，” says Arias,31，who escaped the flames that morning with her purse，cell phone and a handful of important documents.

　　As the fire turned her belongings to ash，she stood on the opposite side of the street looking on.During the fire，Arias called her co­worker Charli Freeman，who jumped in her truck and immediately drove to be by Arias' side.“It wasn't even a conscious thought，” Freeman said.“I didn't want her to be by herself.” Arias is from the East Coast and does not have family in California，but friends and co­workers came to the rescue.

　　As word spread through her office，co­workers dug into their pockets and collected money to help Arias get back on her feet.Two women from her workplace took Arias the money that day，along with a jacket from a co­worker to keep her warm while she stood outside.They also brought her photos of her boyfriend for comfort.

　　Note：

　　bleak adj. 阴暗的

　　3．Arias regards ________ as the most important.

　　长短句破解附加强化练习()

　　将下面英语长句翻译成汉语。

　　1．A common sight is that of old Persian men sitting in the corner talking loudly about world topics，watching news events on TV，drinking a black tea known as Persian chai，an reading local Persian newspaper all the while trying to finish off their plates piled with food.

　　__________________________________________________________________

　　__________________________________________________________________

　　__________________________________________________________________

　　答案　人们常常(在餐馆)可以看见一些年长的波斯人坐在角落里，用餐的同时一直在高声地谈论时政、看电视资讯报道、品一种名叫Persian chai的红茶并读当地的波斯语报纸。

　　本句有五个并列的现在分词短语作men的后置定语，一个过去分词短语piled with food作后置定语，修饰plates。

　　2．There has long been debate in the scientific community that the two might be separate species，but this is the most convincing scientific evidence so far that they are indeed different species.

　　__________________________________________________________________

　　__________________________________________________________________

　　__________________________________________________________________

　　答案　科学界长期就有两种(大象)是不同种类的争论，但这是迄今为止(证明)它们确实是不同种类的最有说服力的科学依据。

　　本句含有两个由that引导的同位语从句，分别说明debate和evidence。

　　3．The real reason why I ask students to leave technology at the door is that I think there are very few places in which we can have deep conversions and truly

　　engage complex ideas.　

　　__________________________________________________________________

　　__________________________________________________________________

　　__________________________________________________________________

　　答案　我让学生们把科技手段都丢在门口的真正原因是在这些场合下我们才能进行深入讨论，真正地探讨复杂的观点，但这样的场合太少见了。

　　The reason why...is that...为高中常见句型，why引导定语从句，先行词为reason，that引导表语从句，I think可以认为是插入语，“介词＋which”引导定语从句，先行词为places。

　　4．As I opened the basement door，before us lay the biggest room，full of amazing things like guns，dolls，and old clothes.

　　__________________________________________________________________

　　__________________________________________________________________

　　__________________________________________________________________

　　答案　我打开地下室的门，展现在我面前的是最大的一间房，里面装满了令人叹为观止的东西，比如枪支，玩具，还有旧衣服。

　　本句含有as引导的时间状语从句，主句是倒装句结构，将介词短语放在句首，后面接了介词短语作状语。

　　5．One of the common problems with making excuses is that people，especially young people，get the idea that it is okay not to be totally honest all the time.

　　__________________________________________________________________

　　__________________________________________________________________

　　__________________________________________________________________

　　__________________________________________________________________

　　答案　编造借口的一个普遍问题就是人们，尤其是年轻人有个观点就是不必总是完全诚实。

　　该句有两个名词性从句，一个表语从句和一个同位语从句，表语从句中还夹杂了一个插入语，使得整个句子显得很长，同位语从句中还运用了部分否定的表达。

　　6．It was not until this moment when I considered myself truly different that my

　　writing acquired a voice.

　　__________________________________________________________________

　　__________________________________________________________________

　　__________________________________________________________________

　　__________________________________________________________________

　　答案　正是当我考虑到自己真正与别人不同这一时刻，我才获得了写作的“灵感”。

　　本句主干为It was not until...that...构成的强调句式，在被强调部分中when引导定语从句，其先行词为this moment。
