40分阅读理解提分练（五）

第一节

A

语篇类型：应用文主题语境：人与社会一一社会与文化一一四个书店

1.答案与解析：B理解具体信息。根据第二段的第二句"Ithasa...referencebooks”

可知，TheHauntedBookShop的特别之处在于有专门的作者房间，当地的作者可以安排时

间在凉爽的环境中写作，并很容易获得参考书。

2.答案与解析：C推断。根据第三段的第二、三句aTheoutdoorshelves...biggest

outdoorbookstore”可知，Bart'sBooks是世界上最大的户外书店，自然环境代表了人们

对自然的热爱，这吸引了很多人来到该书店。据此可以推知，厌倦城市和噪声的青少年更可

能到此书店。

3.答案与解析：A理解具体信息。根据第四段尾句"Kidshaveeven...reading

programw可知，LittleShopofStories由于有以图书为主题的夏令营和一个暑期阅读项

目,孩子们在该书店会玩得很开心。根据第五段尾句"Kidswilldelight...children，s

books”可知，在Page&Palette,除了儿童读物，孩子们还会喜欢动物标本和玩具。据此

可知，这两个书店的共同之处是它们对儿童有吸引力。

B

语篇类型：记叙文主题语境：人与自然一一人与动物一一母爱是天性，是本能

【语篇解读】本文主要讲述了一个猫妈妈叼着自己感染眼疾的猫宝宝去医院寻求帮助，

并得到帮助的故事。

4.答案与解析：C理解具体信息。根据第三段中的“Themothercat...fromeye

infectionsM可知，猫妈妈出现在医院里是为了给自己的猫宝宝寻求治疗，故C项正确。

5.答案与解析：C理解具体信息。根据第三段中一名医生的回忆“Weconsultedvets

（兽医）andgavemedicineasdescribed”可知，医生询问兽医之后，给猫宝宝用了药，

故C项正确。

6.答案与解析：A理解具体信息。根据第四段中的**Becausetheyare...threeweeks

old”可知，新出生的猫宝宝之所以依赖妈妈是因为它们的身体状态还不足以让它们独立，

故A项正确。

7.答案与解析：B推断。根据文章内容尤其是最后一段中的"amother'slove...safe

andhealthy"可知，文章讲述了母爱的力量。由此可知，爱可以带来不同，可以产生影响,

故B项正确。

C

语篇类型：说明文主题语境：人与社会一一科学与技术一一公园的新作用

【语篇解读】全球气候变暖影响着地球的生态环境。但研究发现，公园的绿地可以降

低温度，利用公园还可以缓解洪水问题。

8.答案与解析：A理解具体信息。根据第二段中的"Usingsatellitedata...ofgreen

space”可知，Dallas想要解决的是该城市缺乏绿地的问题。

9.答案与解析：B推断。根据第三段提及的大自然保护协会的报告内容可知，该报告

探讨了休斯敦应对洪水的最佳方法。他们发现，与安装管道等基础设施相比，收购受影响的

房屋并将其改成绿地会节省更多的钱。据此可以推知，城市公园有可能防止洪水。

10.答案与解析：C理解具体信息。根据第四段中的"BrendanShane...andabsorbing

floodwaterM可知，BrendanShane认为公园可以为人们创造锻炼和玩耍的机会，还可以为

社区降温和吸收洪水。据此可知，公园可以发挥积极的社会功能。

11.答案与解析：A理解词汇。根据最后一段的第一句"Notasingle...theclimate

crisis"可知，没有一个单独的解决方案能够避免气候危机。再结合该段第二句可知，公园

是解决方案中的重要组成部分，但并没有什么快速有效的解决方案。故A项正确。

D

theshockingstoryunfoldinFlint,Michigan,wherecost-cuttingmeasuresledto

theuseofapollutedriverasthecity'sprimarywatersupplyandincrediblyhigh
