2021成都高考英语阅读理解、完形填空三月课外小练（11）答案阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A.B.C和D项中，选出最佳选项。Harvard University named historian Drew Gilpin Faust as its first female president on Sunday, ending a lengthy and secretive search to find a successor（接任者）to Lawrence Summers .The seven-member Harvard Corporation elected Faust, a noted scholar on History of the American South and dean of Harvards Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study, as the universitys 28th president.“This is a great day, and a historic day for Harvard,” James R. Houghton, chairman of the presidential search committee, said in a statement. “Drew Faust is an inspiring and accomplished leader, a superb scholar, a dedicated（献身的) teacher, and a wonderful human being.”Her selection is noteworthy given the heated debates over Summers comments that genetic differences between the sexes might help explain the lack of women in top science jobs.Faust has been dean of Radcliffe since 2001, two years after the former womens college was combined into the university as a research center with a mission to study gender issues(性别问题).Some professors have quietly groused that the 371-year-old university is appointing a fifth president who is not a scientist. No scientist has had the top job since James Bryant Conant retired in 1953; its last four have come from the fields of classics, law, literature and economics.1,3,5Faust is the first Harvard president who did not receive a degree from the university since Charles Chauncy, a graduate of Cambridge University, who died in office in 1762. She attended the University of Pennsylvania. “Teaching staff turned to her constantly,” said Sheldon Hackney, a former president of the University of Pennsylvania and historian who worked closely with Faust. “Shes very clear. She has a sense of humor, but shes very strong-minded. You come to trust in her because shes so solid.” 1. Which might be the best title for the passage? A. Harvard named its 1st female president. B. History of Harvard University changed. C. Debates on female equality ended. D. Drew Gilpin Faust, a famous woman historian. 2. Which is NOT true about Drew Gilpin Faust?A. She is the 28th president of Harvard University.B. She is a famous scholar from the American South.C. She isnt a graduate from Harvard University.D. She was head of Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study.3.

Just listen. Perhaps the most important thing we ever give each other is our attention. And especially if its given from the heart. When people are talking，theres no need to do anything but receive them. Listen to what theyre saying. Care about it. Most times caring about it is even more important than understanding it. Most of us dont value ourselves or our love enough to know this. It has taken me a long time to believe in the power of simple saying “Im so sorry” ，when someone is in pain. One of my patients told me that when she tried to tell her story people often interrupted to tell her that they once had something just like that happening to them. Her pain became a story about themselves. Eventually she stopped talking to most people. We connect through listening. When we interrupt what someone is saying to let them know that we understand，we move the focus of attention to ourselves. When we listen，they know we care.I have even learned to respond to someone crying by just listening. In the old days I used to reach for the handkerchiefs，until I realized that passing a person a handkerchief may be just another way to shut him down，to take them out of their experience of sadness. Now I just listen. When they have cried all they need to cry，they find me there with them.This simple thing has not been that easy to learn. It certainly went against everything I had been taught since I was very young. I thought people listened only because they were too shy to speak or did not know the answer. But now I know that a loving silence often has far more power to heal than the kindest words.1What does the author value most in the communication with each other?ADeep understanding.BSaying “Im sorry”CAttention from heart.DDoing nothing.2The woman patient stopped telling her story to most people because_.Ashe didnt get enough respect from othersBshe was discouraged by being often interruptedCpeople often told her their own opinionsDpeople couldnt understand her sad situation3If you hand a handkerchief to someone crying，you may_.Ahurt his feelingsBmake him embarrassedCencourage him to continue to cryDstop him from letting out his sorrow4It can be inferred from the passage that while communicating，_.Alistening is a perfect way to respond to othersBpeople keep silent because they dont know the answer Ckeeping silent means being too shy to speakDit is easy to form the habit of listening silently解题导语全身心地倾听别人倾诉是挂念别人排解哀痛的最好方式。1解析：选C。细节理解题。从第一段第三、四句可知答案为C。2解析：选B。细节理解题。从其次段前三句的内容可知这位女病人之所以不再向别人倾诉是由于她总是被打断，故选B项。 3解析：选D。细节理解题。从第三段其次句中的until I realized that passing a person a handkerchief may be just another way to shut him down，to take them out of their experience of sadness可知选D。 4解析：选A。推理推断题。通读全文可推知A项正确。【2021高考】完形填空Susan was a shy but clever girl.She couldnt see too well and had worn glasses for many years.Some of her classmates began to_16_at her big glasses.Lewis started calling her“Four Eyes”She acted like she didnt mind，but in fact Susan couldnt_17_it.One day，the class went to visit some famous caves，when Lewis put his foot in a hole and slipped.While_18_，he grabbed onto Susan，who was walking next to him，and both fell down the hole and landed in a very big_19_cave.All that could be seen was a single ray of light coming from the cave roof，and some_20_which had fallen through the hole.Susan and Lewis shouted for help，but no one came.He used the_21_light to look for a way out.But after hours of_22_，he found nothing，and started feeling_23_.It must have been_24_，when Susan noticed that the ray of light was descending from the hole in a straight line，and_25_on the floor in front of her._26_，she took a piece of_27_that had fallen into the cave，and，using her_28_as a magnifying glass，she_29_the ray of light on to the wood until a little_30_sprang up.Now they had a torch.Lewis watched all this with surprise and_31_.He grabbed some more branches，and off they went together，to_32_the cave.It took them some time，and they had to_33_quite a few torches，but finally they found a way out.He now_34_having given her that name，_35_seeing that it was her glasses that had saved them both.【语篇解读】 本文是一篇记叙文。聪慧而大方的Susan由于戴眼镜而受到同学的赞扬。但在一次班级出游中，赞扬她的同学Lewis和Susan一同掉进了一个漆黑的地窖中，是Susan用自己的眼镜聚集太阳光点燃了洞里的枯树枝两人才得以走出地窖。16A.shout Blaugh Cpoint Dglance答案BB从后一句“Lewis started calling herFour Eyes”可知，同学们开头赞扬Susan戴眼镜。laugh at“赞扬。”17A.stand Bunderstand Cresist Dstop答案A依据前句和转折词可知，Susan表面不在乎别人的赞扬，但事实上难以忍受。stand“容忍，忍受”，符合语境。18A.passing Bwalking Ccrying Dfalling答案DLewis在滑倒的时候抓住了走在他旁边的Susan。由语境可知D项正确。19A.narrow Bempty Cdark Dcold答案C从下句只能看到从洞顶射进来的一束光和后文两人用火把照明可知，山洞里格外黑。20A.branches Bstones Cleaves Dfruits答案A从后文Susan用树枝做火把可知，有些树枝掉到了洞中。21A.natural Bstrong Cartificial Dweak答案D从前文可知，只有一缕阳光照进洞中，由此可知光线很微弱。22A.waiting Bsearching Cplanning Dtalking答案BLewis试图借着光亮查找出去的路，但是经过几个小时的查找，并没有找到出口。23A.annoyed Bstarved Cfrightened Dpuzzled答案C经过几个小时的查找仍未找到出口，他开头感到可怕。24A.noon Bsupper timeCearly morning Dlate afternoon答案A阳光直射在洞中，由此推断此时已经是中午了。25A.shining Breflecting Cspreading Dlanding答案D从时间到了中午这一细节可知，阳光从洞口射入，落在地面上。land“落下，掉下”，符合语境。26A.Slowly BQuickly CQuietly DFinally答案BSusan很快拿起了一块掉在山洞里的木头。故B项正确，其他三项均不符合语境。27A.rock Bgrass Cwood Dpaper答案C后文有提示，Susan用树枝做成了火把，因此此处指“木头”。28A.keys Bshoes Cglasses Dknives答案C从本文最终一句可知，正是Susan的眼镜救了两人的命，因此此处指她将眼镜用作放大镜来点燃木头。29A.collected Bfocused Cplaced Dpoured答案B由语境可知，此处指她用眼镜把阳光聚集在木头上。focus“集中(光束于)”，符合语境。30A.air Bsmoke Clight Dflame答案D在阳光的照射下，木头点燃了，毁灭了小火苗。31A.excitement BshockCwonder Dpride答案A看到眼前发生的一切，Lewis感到既吃惊又兴奋，由于两人可以借助火把找到地窖的出口了。32A.explode Benlarge Cexplore Ddig答案C他又捡了一些树枝，他们一起去探究地窖。33A.break Bburn Chold Dmake答案B两人花费了很长时间，烧掉了好几根火把，但是最终他们找到了出口。34A.preferred BrememberedCenjoyed Dregretted答案DSusan的眼镜救了两人的命，因此Lewis懊悔当时给Susan起那个外号。regret doing sth“懊悔做了某事”。35A.especially BactuallyCcarefully Dthoroughly答案A尤其是当他看到正是她的眼镜救了两人的命。especially“尤其”，符合语境。
