　　Ⅲ.阅读理解

　　(2017·宣城高三模拟)Standing in the middle of a yard crowded with soldiers, Luo Ming, a 31­year­old team leader with the Sichuan Emergency Response Volunteer Group, sees a threat (威胁) nearly as big as the earthquake that struck Western

　　China's mountainous area on Saturday: too many volunteers.

　　“The volunteers have created a certain kind of disaster themselves，” he says, obviously tired due to no sleep in 48 hours.“There are more volunteers than there are earthquake victims.They have no place to sleep, and nothing to eat, and most of them have no experience or training.”

　　Mr Luo is in charge at the volunteer registration (登记) tent at the town centre of Longmen, where the earthquake has left thousands of people without shelter, food and water for three days.He has registered more than 500 volunteers, but he has turned even more than that away.“For some people, the biggest help that they can do for disaster areas is go back where they came from safely，” he says.

　　Authorities are trying to make sure that no more volunteers show up.Beijing announced a ban on private volunteers and civil society groups entering the disaster area for the time being, and several universities in Sichuan issued notices to their students asking them not to travel to the earthquake areas, encouraging them to donate blood instead.

　　One of the reasons for the government's decision is transportation difficulty: large rescue vehicles and heavy 　

　　car traffic makes the roads impassable.On one stretch between Longmen and Taiping, traffic was so bad on Sunday morning that an injured woman was taken out of her ambulance, which was stuck in traffic, and carried by her husband on his back to seek medical attention.

　　1．Which of the following is TRUE of Luo Ming according to the passage?

　　A．He is a soldier.　B．He is in his forties.

　　C．He is overworking.

　　D．He has nothing to eat.

　　2．Why are more volunteers banned from entering the disaster areas?

　　A．They cannot give any help at all.

　　B．They bring more trouble than help.

　　C．They refuse to donate their blood.

　　D．They make the earthquake even worse.

　　3．The man had to carry his injured wife on his back to find a doctor because ________.

　　A．the ambulance she had been in was stuck in traffic

　　B．her injure was too serious for her to be carried in any vehicle

　　C．a road accident made it impossible for the ambulance to go on

　　D．he thought it the best way to carry her dear wife

　　4．What's the best title for the news item?

　　A．Quake Left Thousands Homeless

　　B．Quake Volunteers Create Challenge

　　C．Luo Ming, a Hard­working Team Leader

　　D．Transportation Difficulty in Disaster Areas

　　答

　　案

　　Ⅰ.1.选A　孩子因在工作中表现得好而得到提升，妈妈应该表示“祝贺”，所以选A。

　　2．选C　考查虚拟语气及as if的用法。句意：这些太空服可以调节以便队员们能模仿不同级别的引力，好像他们在太空似的。根据句中的can be adjusted，知这些队员现在还没在太空，是一个与现在事实相反的虚拟语气，故用were。

　　3．选D　句意：这条绿化带一旦完成，将对这一地区的环境产生重大的作用。while“当……时候”；unless“除非”；even if“即使”；once“一旦”。

　　4．选B　句意：杨先生在他的报告里强调正是来自这家化工厂的废水污染了这一地区的地下水。本句强调的是主语the waste water，是物，用that构成强调句。

　　5．选C　句意：那些天北京的空气很难呼吸。结果，很多人不得不待在家里，尤其是那些老人。the air与breathe构成逻辑上的被动关系，需用被动语态，但因句中有形容词difficult，不定式在作状语时，用其主动形式表达被动含义，故答案为C。

　　6．选A　句意：“玛丽整天埋头于学习和读书中。”“难怪她每次考试都得第一名。” be buried in “埋头于；专心于”。

　　7．选A　judging from为插入语结构，不受句子主语和语态限制，故正确答案只能选A。

　　8．选D　句意：自从警察开展减少道路交通事故的运动以来，意外死亡已经明显降低。launch a campaign“开展一场运动”，符合句意。event“(尤指重要、有意思或不寻常的)事件”；battle“战役”；fight“战斗”。

　　9．选B　句意：犹太裔美国人在商业、娱乐和科学领域极其成功，在400个最富有的美国人中，有25%是犹太裔美国人。extremely“极其；极度”，符合句意。completely“完全地”；eventually“终于；最终”；unconditionally“无条件地”。

　　10．选D　ruin可用其引申含义，意为“毁坏”，此时其宾语通常是health, fame, chance等。injure侧重身体上的伤害；wound侧重战场上的刀伤、枪伤等；harm指“对……有害”。所以选D。

　　11．选D　句意：在展览会上展出的鲜花得到游客们的欣赏和高度评价。从句意看，flowers与think well of是被动关系，故用被动语态；think well of“对……评价高”，其被动语态常把well放在系动词之后。

　　12．选B　分析句子结构可知，“________almost all tourists would like to visit”为定语从句，修饰先行词the place，关系代词在从句中充当visit的宾语，因此选B。

　　13．选A　“by the end of＋将来时间”时，谓语动词用将来完成时。

　　14．选C　句意：在新的英语老师的帮助下，我们班中在英语方面取得进步的学生数量相当大。the number of“……的数量”；make great progress in“在……取得进步”。

　　15.选D　句意：由于网民的努力和记者挖掘真相的决心，反腐工作加快了。dig out“找出；发掘”，符合句意。take out“获得”；check out“核实；检查(是否一切正常)”；pick out“精心挑选”。

　　Ⅱ.1.选C　根据“learning a new language ...”之后的列举和前面提到的“everything”可知，此处答案为C项，意为“包括”。

　　2．选A　根据下文“to have what she had ...”可知，此处不定式表示目的，故答案为A，意为“目标”，由此两者形成呼应。

　　3．选C　根据常识可知，许多人去了新地方，都会有一个新的开始，但是戴安娜与众不同，她并不想改变自己所做的事情。这与下文她重新在加拿大开商店形成呼应。故选C。

　　4．选B　此处与上句她不想改变相呼应，她决定开一个商店。这与下文她所做的努力相呼应。decide意为“决定”，符合语境，故选B。

　　5．选B　根据下文内容可知，戴安娜接受教育，最终取得成功，说明一开始来到一个人生地不熟的地方还是有很多东西要准备的，故答案为B。

　　6．选A　根据固定搭配make one's dream a reality“梦想成真”可知，答案应为A。

　　7．选D　要想梦想成真就意味着要上学接受一些必要的教育和得到相应的证书。necessary意为“必要的”，符合语境，故选D。

　　8．选D　在哥伦比亚开过店和做过设计师的经历让她对自己的能力充满信心。confidence in sth.意为“在某方面有自信”，符合语境，故选D。

　　9．选C　此处与上句要去学校学习相呼应，说明戴安娜在加拿大必须要学会如何应对很多事情，这就是一个重新学习的过程，故答案为C。put away“存放”；depend on“依赖”；look into“调查”。

　　10．选B　根据“It was like having to __10__ all over again”可知，这就像一切重新开始。start意为“开始”，符合语境，故答案为B。

　　11．选C　根据下句“she found just the help”可知，她恰好找到了帮助，由此可见在异国他乡她很幸运，luckily意为“幸运地”，符合语境，故答案为C。

　　12．选A　根据语境可知，戴安娜是通过继续教育找到了办法。through意为“通过”，符合语境，故选A项。

　　13．选D　根据固定搭配take a course“学习课程”可知，应选D项。

　　14．选A　虽然戴安娜遇到了语言障碍，但她……though意为“尽管，虽然”，符合语境，故选A。

　　15．选C　go ahead意为“向前冲”，充分表现了戴安娜全力以赴的性格，与文章第一段的开头相呼应，故答案为C。

　　16．选B　在戴安娜到达加拿大两年后，终于实现了理想……arrival意为“到达”，符合语境，故答案为B。

　　17．选A　她达到了最初的目标，与上文形成呼应。original意为“最初的”，符合语境，故选A。

　　18．选A　根据上句内容可知，戴安娜达到自己最初的目标，由此踏上了成功的快车道。与文章第一段相呼应。success意为“成功”，符合语境，故选A。

　　20．选B　最重要的是她所付出的努力。与文章第一段中的“maximum

　　effort”相呼应。above all意为“最重要的是”，符合语境。故选B。after all“终究，毕竟”；at least“至少”；at first“最初”。

　　Ⅲ.1.选C　细节理解题。根据文章第二段第一句“‘The volunteers have created a certain kind of disaster themselves，’ he says, obviously tired due to no sleep in 48 hours.”可知，答案C符合文意。

　　2．选B　推理判断题。根据文章第三段最后一句“‘For some people, the biggest help that they can do for disaster areas is go back where they came from safely，’ he says.”和对最后一段的整体理解可推知，答案B符合文意。

　　3．选A　细节理解题。根据文章最后一段第二句“...traffic was so bad on Sunday morning that an injured woman was taken out of her ambulance, which was stuck in traffic, and carried by her husband on his back to seek medical attention.”可知，答案A符合文意。

　　4．选B　标题归纳题。根据对整篇文章的理解可知，本文主要讲的是雅安地震灾区的志愿者无序且过多给灾区造成的不必要的困扰，所以B项最适合做文章的标题。
