2021重庆市高考英语阅读类课外训练【9】及答案【三月】

【由山东省2022高考仿真冲刺卷（6）改编】
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。
However urban life strikes you，cities worldwide have been growing even more rapidly．Some of this growth has occurred in the developed world，but the most dramatic increase has been in the Third World．Almost all the world’s population growth over the next 30 years will take place in the cities of developing countries
By the year 2030，for the first time in history，60 percent of the world’s people will be living in cities．
This is actually good news in some ways．“Cities are the fundamental building blocks of prosperity,” says Marc Weiss，chairman of the Prague Institute for Global Urban Development，“ both for the nation and for families．” Industrial and commercial activities in urban areas account for between 50 and 80 percent of the gross domestic product （GDP） in most countries of the world“ there’s the crazy notion that the way to deal with a city’s problems is to keep people out of them,” Weiss continued．“But the problems of the rural life are even more serious than those of the city．” For better or worse，urban-watchers are clear on one point: The quality of life for most people in the future will be determined by the quality of cities．Those cities will be bigger than ever．And yet，population numbers by themselves don’t determine a city’s prospects； after all，Addis Ababa，Ethiopia，and Hamburg，Germany，have the same population．Nor is explosive growth necessarily the determining factor．“City problems,” one authority points out，“mostly have to do with weak，ineffective，and usually unrepresentative city governments．”

A．Big cities． B．City life．
C．Population． D．Gross Domestic Product．

A．there will be 21 cities having a population of more than 10 million．

3．In the author’s opinion，_________．
A．better city，better life
B．both urban and rural areas have a larger population
C．the larger population，the faster a city develops
D．both urban and rural areas have larger gross domestic products
4．Which statement is NOT true according to the passage?
A．The developing countries develop faster than the developed countries．
B．Cities contribute more to the GDP than the villagers．
C．Some problems are more easily solved in cities than in country．
D．It’s impossible to solve urban problems by getting people out of cities．

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。
All parents know that one of their most important tasks is to prepare their children for an independent life，but any parent can tell you that it’s hard to let go of your children．That balance between keeping your children safe and allowing them to learn from their own mistakes can be heartbreaking．Years of experience means that parents often do know best，but on the other hand，the young，being less bound by tradition，are often more creative，more able to find new solutions to old problems．Revolutions are led by the young．
Good teachers make the growth of critical （批判性的） thinking easier in their students，only to find that this can lead to a questioning of the teachers’ basic beliefs．Schools encourage parents to become involved，but are often embarrassed when parents have reservations about some of the educational methods being used．Governments encourage unimportant groups to empower themselves in order to participate fully in the development process．And they are often surprised when the new leaders of these groups turn around and attack the policies of that same government．The rebellions （叛逆的）young and the newly unimportant groups are important in social development．They are not necessarily representatives of those they want to represent or not realistic in their demands，but their voices must be heard．
Good parents know that just forbidding particular behaviors does not prevent their children from finding ways to engage in these forbidden activities．Indeed，sometimes the forbidden fruit is more inviting，just because it is not accepted by authority．Parents must work with their children to educate them on the facts，know as much as possible about he lives of their children，provide a good example，encourage more wholesome activities but also support their children when they don’t follow what is expected of them．But the most important point is that they also need to learn how to let go．
1．By saying “Revolutions are led by the young”，the author indicates that young people are more___________________．
A．conventional B．creative C．realistic D．heartbreaking

A．the voice of the rebellious young should be heard by the government
B．schools encourage parents to question their education methods

A．forbid particular behaviors in their daily life
B．know as much as possible as their children

【答案与解析】
这是一篇叙事性的文章，作者接受倒叙的手法，叙述了英国出名聋女乐器打击手Evelyn Glennie克服困难成功的故事，阐明白只要有激情，敢于尝试，就能成功的主题。
1. B. 考点是：名词词义。
综合整个语篇及文章最终一段 “I would encourage people not to allow…”的提示，可知作者虽身残而志坚，挑战世俗，大胆尝试，最终获得成功，可知最佳答案为B项。
2. C. 考点是：动词词义。
文中take piano lessons 为动词搭配，表示：上(听)钢琴课之意，故排解其它三个干扰项。
3. B. 考点是：名词词义。
由下文“I was completely deaf ”；“not as a deaf musician”；“ I was totally deaf” 处可知作者年幼失聪 (hearing)。
4. D. 考点是：名词词义辨析。
依据文章，医生断言神经受损是作者耳聋的缘由所在，而非产生的结果，故排解B项，A项表示：证据，C项表示：借口，均不符合文意。
5. A. 考点是：动词词义辨析。
从文中可知，作者虽患耳疾，但年纪愈长，对音乐的热忱也愈涨，再由but一词的示意，可敲定left为正确答案。
6. D. 考点是：名词词义辨析。
依据文意，作者的人生目标是要成为一名打击乐器独奏演员，所以D为正确答案，A项表示: 意图，B项表示: 打算，C项表示: 诺言，均不精确     。
7. B. 考点是：动词词义辨析。
由文中可知，由于听力丢失，作者无法用耳朵去听音乐，所以只能尝试学会以“另类”的方式去感悟音乐，选项B恰好表示: 学习、习得之意，符合文意。
8. A. 考点是：动词词义辨析。
由上文可知，作者无法象常人一样去听音乐，就想出只穿着袜子不穿鞋，利用身体的震惊来感知音乐，辨别音调凹凸。其中can与tell连用，正好表达“辨别”、“辨别”之意，为正确答案。
9. C . 考点是：名词词义辨析。
依据文意和句子结构可推断，只有C项imagination (想象力)为正确答案。
10. A. 考点是：名词词义辨析。
依据上文, 作者听力丢失，所以只能协调其它的感官去“听”音乐。故A项为正确答案。
11. C. 考点是：形容词词义辨析
此处表达作者要立志成为音乐家，所以不难选出determine一词，其他三项dissatisfied, astonished, discouraged因感情颜色与文章主旨明显不符，而不能入选。
12. A. 考点是：副词词义辨析。
作者耳患顽疾，且又申请出名的伦敦皇家音乐学院去学习，这在当时是没有哪个聋哑同学能够做到的，故此题选A为宜。
13. D. 考点是：动词词义辨析。
由上下文语境，再加上连接词and（留意文中没用but,说明此处表示并列，而非转折）可推知，作者的行为自然要受到老师的反对。此处同学易误选support一词而造成语意前后冲突，以致偏离主题。
14. B. 考点是：副词词义辨析。
从文中可知，作者大胆尝试，抵制压力，克服困难，最终考入皇家音乐学院，所以B项（最终地）为正确答案。
15. C. 考点是：动词词义辨析。
由第四段最终一句可知，应是作者毕业时获得学院最高荣誉奖，其它三项不妥。
16. A. 考点是：动词词义辨析。
依据文章，作者经过不懈努力，后来成为第一位专职打击音乐独奏演员，再由下句“…had been written specially for solo percussionists.”中write一词的同义复现，可确定上句答案为A项。
17. D. 考点是：不定代词词义辨析。
考查代词词义，依据上下文规律，在此作者想表达很少有人来特地为打击音乐独奏演员来谱曲，所以毁灭上文作者挺身而出，竭力为演员们来谱曲，所以此题D项为正确答案。
18. B. 考点是：连词用法。
依据上下文规律，可知此处应使用表示转折的关联词，选项A (however)虽然表示转折含义，但不用做连词，不能连接句子，故排解。所以B项为正确答案。
19. A. 考点是：动词词义辨析。
依据文意和句式结构（此句为双重否定句）可知，mean表示：“意味着”，为最佳答案。
20. D. 考点是：动词词义辨析。
作者通过自身经受劝导人们不要为别人的思想而束缚自己，故D项 (limited表示：限制)为最佳答案。
