限时提分练(二十四)Ⅰ.阅读理解A语篇类型：说明文主题语境：人与社会——文化——摄影作品展〖语篇解读〗本文介绍了英国的“年度最佳水下摄影师”大赛，并对几幅获奖或有代表性的作品和作品对应的摄影师进行了详细的介绍。1．〖答案〗与〖解析〗B考查细节理解。根据文章第一段中的“Asyoumightexpect,thefocusisonphotostakenunderwater”可知参赛照片都是水下主题的。故选B。2．〖答案〗与〖解析〗A'考查文章出处。本文主要介绍的是摄影师大赛及其中的几幅摄影作品。与摄影相关的应该是网站的艺术版块。3．〖答案〗与〖解析〗B'考查推理判断。由文章第四段中的“Thephoto‘LastDawn,LastGasp’byPasqualeVassalloofItalywontheawardforOceanProtectionPhotographeroftheYear”可知该照片获得了“年度海洋保护摄影师奖”，故选项B正确。4．〖答案〗与〖解析〗C'考查细节理解。根据第五段的最后一句“Mr.Vassallosayshedoesn'tunderstandwhattheoctopuswasdoing,butwondersifitwastrainingfortheWorldCup”可知，该摄影师戏谑不知道章鱼是否被训练来预测世界杯的胜负，可见摄影师有着幽默感。B〖语篇解读〗本文是说明文，主题语境是“人与社会”。文章介绍了一项研究的结果：尽管社交媒体让我们比历史上任何时候都更能与他人建立起联系，但许多美国人感到比以往任何时候都更加孤独。5．〖答案〗与〖解析〗D考查细节理解。根据第一段中的“anewstudysuggeststhatmanyAmericansfeellonelierthaneverbefore”可知，新的研究发现社交媒体让美国人变得更加孤独。6．〖答案〗与〖解析〗C考查推理判断。根据第三段中的“Lonelinesshasthesameinfluenceonhealthassmoking15cigarettesaday,whileobesity(肥胖)lessthan10cigarettesaday”可知，孤独对健康的影响相当于每天吸15支烟的影响，而肥胖对健康的影响相当于每天吸不到10支烟的影响。由此可推知，孤独比肥胖更危险。7．〖答案〗与〖解析〗A考查词义猜测。根据上文提到的Nemecek的言论和下文中的“thoseofotherleadingpublichealthspecialists...lonelinessshouldbetargetedinpublichealthcampaignslikethosedesignedtofightagainstsmokingandobesity”“theworstdiseaseIsawwasnotheartdiseaseordiabetes;itwasloneliness”可知，此处表示Nemecek的言论与其他一些健康专家的言论是一致的，故选A。8．〖答案〗与〖解析〗B考查写作目的。根据文章内容尤其是文章首尾两段的呼应可知，本文主要介绍了一项新研究的结果：尽管社交媒体使得人们更易与他人产生联系，但许多美国人却感到比以往任何时候都孤独。故选B。〖长难句解读〗Nemecek'scommentstalliedwiththoseofotherleadingpublichealthspecialists，includingformerSurgeonGeneralVivekH.Murthy，MD，whosaidlonelinessshouldbetargetedinpublichealthcampaignslikethosedesignedtofightagainstsmokingandobesity.,分析：本句是主从复合句。句子主干是Nemecek'scommentstalliedwiththoseofotherleadingpublichealthspecialists。including短语作状语。who引导非限制性定语从句，修饰先行词formerSurgeonGeneralVivekH.Murthy；该定语从句中those后跟过去分词短语designedtofightagainstsmokingandobesity作定语。,译文：Nemecek的观点和其他一流的公共健康专家的观点不谋而合，这些专家里包括前美国卫生局局长VivekH.Murthy博士，他说像与吸烟和肥胖作斗争一样，公共健康运动应该把孤独也列为攻击目标。Ⅱ.七选五语篇类型：说明文主题语境：人与自然——人与环境——在大自然中散步有助于更好地工作〖语篇解读〗到户外走走，而不是一直待在室内，对人们的身体和精神健康大有裨益。1．〖答案〗与〖解析〗A根据空后一句“TheaverageAmerican，forexample，spendsabout90%oftheirlifeindoors”可知，普通的美国人90%的时间都是在室内度过的，由此可推知，A项符合语境。2．〖答案〗与〖解析〗E本空是段首句，与下一段的首句“Therearealsoalotofmentalbenefits...canmakesenseoflife”呼应，并结合对本段内容的整体理解可知，本段主要讲述了出去走走的一些明显的益处，所以E项与语境相符。3．〖答案〗与〖解析〗D本段表述大自然对人的精神健康有益。根据语境并结合空前的“peopletendtohavemorepositiveemotionandenergythanwhentheyareindoors”可推知，D项“换句话说，人们在大自然中更开心”与此处匹配。4．〖答案〗与〖解析〗G根据空后一句“Afterwards，shinrin­yoku，theJapaneseconcept...followedthat”可推知，该空陈述的应是与大自然对人类有益的理论或概念相关的内容，选项G的内容与空处相符，所以选G项。5．〖答案〗与〖解析〗B空处承上启下。B选项中的“itdoesn'thavetobeaforest”与空前一句中的“withnoreadyaccesstoforestsorthewilderness”相衔接，且与空后一句中的“greenenvironmentsincitieshavebeneficialeffects”相呼应，所以选B项。Ⅲ.短文改错〖答案〗Itisknownthateq\o(as,\s\do14(①with))thedevelopmentofeconomy,eq\o(a,\s\do14(②the))numberofcarsisincreasinglygrowinginourdailylife.Carsindeedeq\o(had,\s\do14(③have))greatlyimprovedourlifeandbroughtmuchconvenience.eq\o(Therefore,\s\do14(④However))，theyalsobringproblems,amongwhichthetrafficaccidentisatthetopofthelist.Whatcanwedotosolvetheproblemeq\o(effective,\s\do14(⑤effectively))？Thebestsolutionforeq\o(their,\s\do14(⑥our))societyistoobeythetrafficregulations.Forexample,whenwecrossthestreet,weshouldeq\o(∧,\s\do14(⑦not))gountilthelightturnsgreen.Also,weshouldridebikesonthebikelane.Besides,weshouldwarnpeoplenottoeq\o(looking,\s\do14(⑧look))attheirmobileeq\o(phone,\s\do14(⑨phones))whiletheyareridingordriving.Lotsoftrafficaccidentscanbeavoidedwhatifeveryoneobeysthetrafficregulations.限时提分练(二十四)必修⑤Unit4MakingthenewsⅠ.阅读理解A〖2021·烟台市高考诊断性测试〗TheUnderwaterPhotographeroftheYear,whichoriginatedfrom1965,isayearlycontestbasedintheUnitedKingdom.Asyoumightexpect,thefocusisonphotostakenunderwater,whetherintheocean,inlakesorrivers,orevenswimmingpools.Thepicturesarejudgedinseveraldifferentcategories.Thecontestin2020hadover5,500entriesfrom70differentcountries.Thegrandprizewinnerwas“FrozenMobileHome”byFrenchphotographerGregLecoeur.Thephotoshowssealsswimmingaroundasmalliceberg.Togetthepicture,Mr.LecoeurtraveledtoAntarcticainasmallboatandspenttimetrackingthelifearoundfloatingicebergs.Thephoto“LastDawn,LastGasp”byPasqualeVassalloofItalywontheawardforOceanProtectionPhotographeroftheYear.Mr.Vassallosaidthathewentdivingearlyinthemorningtotakethispictureofatuna(金枪鱼)trappedasfishermenpulledtheirnetsin.Mr.Vassalloalsotook“OctopusTraining”，apicturethatwoninthecategoryof“Behavior”.Hesaysthatwhenhecameupafteradive,henoticedasoccerballfloatingonthesurface.Whenhewenttocheckitout,hesawthattherewasanoctopushangingfromtheball.Mr.Vassallosayshedoesn'tunderstandwhattheoctopuswasdoing,butwondersifitwastrainingfortheWorldCup.ThoughRoomanLucofBelgiumdidn'twinthe“Portrait”category,hisphoto,titled“AngrySeahorse”，isquitestriking.Theclose­upshotofaseahorsestaringstrictlyintothecamerawasnamedrunner­up(secondplace).Hesaidhespentnearlyanhourstandinginknee­highwaterbeingbittenbymosquitosinordertogetthepicture.Thecontesthasmanymoreamazingphotosthatcanbeviewedonthesite,alongwiththestoriesbehindthem.Thereisevenabookw
