一、高中英语阅读理解
1．阅读短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。

Devon Gallagher, a college graduate from Philadelphia, wants the world to know exactly where
she's been while she's on her worldwide vacation in a special way. The traveler, who was born
with a bone disease, had her right leg amputated (截肢) at the age of four. Although the
amputation caused inconvenience for Gallagher early on, she now sees it as nothing short of
inspiration for living her best life.

To spread that message. Gallagher has gone to social media, where she shares photos of her
travels across the world, but instead of simply using a geo-tag (地理位置标签), she writes her
location on her artificial leg before taking a picture.

Now she has been taking pictures across the Continent, which show her cycling over the canal
in Amsterdam relaxing on a wall overlooking the city of Barcelona, posing with a waffle in
Brussels, taking in the beautiful Parthenon temple in Athens and enjoying a river ride in Budapest,
all with the well-known locations written on her artificial leg.


thought to get a chalk- board,
but my friends thought it was great and told me to go for it, so I did.

Gallagher said people often stare when she's writing on her leg, but once she shares the
photos, she receives only positive feedback (反馈), leg hasn't stopped me from doing
anything I've wanted to do,
that I can do it, anyway, I've been able to keep up with people at my age and lead a pretty great
life.

段 To spread that message. Gallagher has gone to social media, where she shares photos of her
travels across the world, but instead of simply using a geo-tag (地理位置标签), she writes her
location on her artificial leg before taking a picture。Gallagher把她 的位置写在假肢上来和大
家分享可知他是一个很有创造性的人，故选C。

4．阅读理解

It's no surprise to hear the honking of horns in New York. Whoever tries every day to get more
than a few minutes of sleep in the morning in the city will tell you that he could do nothing about
it! No one can deny honking of horns is just one of his most widely enjoyed pastimes.

But Andy, a Japanese website developer has had enough of it. Once, the 27-year-old man
approached the open window to wait for the driver to finish honking, delivered a polite
me
eggs from the window of his apartment on to a passing car honking loudly below when his
patience was worn out. Instead of apologizing to him, the driver threatened to kill him angrily. So,
nobly, Andy turned to non-violence. He started writing anti-honking haiku verses, a form of
Japanese poetry, and submitted them to local newspapers:

Oh. forget Enron;

The problem around here is; All the damn honking (Enron: a major American company that
recently caused a scandal because of corrupt(腐败) mismanagement)


appearing unexpectedly
all walks of life.

Patience slowly fades;

Residents store up their eggs; That day is coming soon.

It's understandable that Andy has set up a website — — and now people from
across the country send him news of their own anti - honking activities. It seems that poetry can
change the world after all. Then, just recently, anti- anti- honking haiku started to appear,
launched by locals who thought Andy should stop worrying about honking and start worrying
about starving children, or war in the Middle East instead. Andy has an answer for that.
if this is too ridiculous,
force of nature, like it's beyond our control. But actually it's kind of like the honking - the violence
is man -made. If we can figure out how to stop honking on the streets, I think we could learn
some things that we could use on a large scale.

（1）What does the first paragraph intend to tell us about New Yorkers?

A. They enjoy listening to the honking of horns.

B. Their life has been affected by the honking noise.

C. They get accustomed to sleeping late in the morning.

D. They have formed a habit of honking while driving.

（2）What is Andy's final reaction to the frequent honking of horns?

A. Pretended to ignore it. B. Screamed at the driver.

C. Acted in a peaceful way. D. Complained to the government.

（3）According to the passage, most New Yorkers think Andy's response is______.

A. acceptable B. pointless C. sensitive D. abnormal

（4）Facing the criticism of his anti-honking campaign, Andy notes that______.

A. if not handled well, honking will cause serious problems like starvation

B. fierce violence in the Middle East is more of an issue worthy of concern

C. violence in the world as well as honking on the street is under our control

D. finding the solution to anti - honking is as meaningful as that to starvation

【答案】 （1）B

（2）C

（3）A

（4）D

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文， 讲述了纽约的汽车喇叭声严重影响了人们的生活，
一个日本人对此做出了很大的挣扎，从激烈对抗到写打 油诗的非暴力反抗，以及纽约当地
人对此的反映。

（1）考查细节理解。根据第一段中的“It's no surprise to hear the honking of horns in New
York. Whoever tries every day to get more than a few minutes of sleep in the morning in the city
will tell you that he could do nothing about it! ”可知在纽约听到巨大的汽车喇叭声不足为奇 ，
因为这些声音人们想多睡几分钟是不可能的，即汽车喇叭声影响了纽约人的日常生活。故
选B 。

（2）考查细节理解。根据第二段中的“So, nobly, Andy turned to non- violence.”可知Andy最
后采取了非暴力行为来反抗喇叭噪音。故选C。

（3）考查推理判断。根据最后一段中的“It's understandable that Andy has set up a website
— www. honku. org — and now people from across the country send him news of their own anti
- honking activities.”可 知Andy建立网站后全国各地的人都给他寄来反喇叭噪音行为的消
息，故推测人们对Andy的行为是 接受并且支持的。故选A。

（4）考查推理判断。根据最后一段中的“If we can figure out how to stop honking on the
streets, I think we could learn some things that we could use on a large scale. ”可知Andy认为如
果解决了喇叭噪音问题，就能把 从中学到的东西应用到更大规格的事情上，故推测他认为
解决喇叭噪音和解决饥荒一样重要。选D。

要准确掌握细节信息，同时根据上下文的逻辑关系，进行分析，推理，从而选出正确答
案。


5．阅读理解

Since we've headed into the snowy part of the year, it seems like a good time to solve a
language puzzle that Eskimos have a huge number of words for snow. The idea was popularized
by the now well-known expert Benjamin Lee Whorf in the 1940s. His number was approximately
five Eskimo words for snow, but somehow the story was so wide spread and romantic that it got
out of control and grew bigger and bigger.

There are two problems with the concept of Eskimos having tons of words for snow.

First, Eskimos speak at least two different languages—Inuit and Yupik. Just as we have talked
about how English and many other languages developed from a common language called Proto-
Indo-European, Inuit and Yupik come from a different common language called Eskimo-Aleut. So
saying Eskimos have 100 words for snow is like saying Europeans have 100 words for kings or
queens. It might be telling you something broad about culture, but it isn't really telling you much
about language.

The second problem is is a word?” The Inuit and Yupik languages make words in
different ways from how we make words in English. For example, the West Greenlandic word
'siku,' (sea ice), is used as the root for 'sikursuit (pack ice), 'Sikuliaq (new ice), and 'sikurluk
(melting ice). But it's not that West Greenlandic has so many more words for describing snow
than English, it's just that West Greenlandic expresses ideas by combining meaningful units of
language together into one word while English uses more phrases and compounds. We express
all the same ideas; we just do it a little differently because of the way our language is built.

So you're probably still wondering,
Woodbury lists 15 that are present in a Yupik dictionary published in 1984, but he says that
depending on how you look at it this is not an exact number. It could be 12; it could be 24. But it's
certainly not 100.

Sometimes, the
so many words for snow, they think about snow in ways that we can't even begin to imagine—
that your language decides or limits your thoughts. Languages are just different. They don't
decide what we are able to think about or are not able to think about. I can think about snow
floating on water even if we don't have a word for that in English.

So when you're out skiing or snowboarding or just shoveling your driveway this winter, don't
believe the people who try to tell you that Eskimos have 100 words for snow.

（1）Why are Eskimos thought to have so many words for snow?

A. Because snow is everywhere where Eskimos live.

B. Because the story about it got enriched and believed.

C. Because snow is of great importance to Eskimos.

D. Because Eskimos have great affection for snow.

（2）How does the writer explain the first problem?

A. By presenting figures. B. By making comparisons.

C. By quoting sayings. D. By adopting idioms.

（3）The example of the west Greenlandic word 'siku' shows that .

A. the making of words varies from language to language

B. the Inuit and Yupik languages have more words for snow

C. the richness of words and phrases leads to different ideas

D. more phrases about snow are found in the English language

（4）What conclusion can we safely draw from the last two paragraphs?

A. Eskimos better understand snow than other people.

B. Languages deeply influence people's ability to think.

C. There is no point counting Eskimo's expressions for snow.

D. What comes into our mind is limited by our language.

【答案】 （1）B

（2）B

（3）A

（4）C

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文， 介绍了爱斯基摩人描述雪的词语虽然多但并非传言
中的100多个。出现这一想象的原因是1. 爱斯基摩人本身就说两种语言，不同的语言就会
有不同的描述。2. 词汇方面的融合也使得他们有很多能描述雪的词语。

（1）考查细节理解。根据第一段中的“His number was approximately five Eskimo words for
snow, but somehow the story was so wide spread and romantic that it got out of control and
grew bigger and bigger.”可知，本身Benjamin Lee Whorf对于雪的词汇可能就只有5个，但
是故事不断的传播，甚至带着浪漫主义气息，使得故事传播的越来越广泛，故事内容也越
来越夸张。故选 B。

（2）考查推理判断。根据第三段 中的“Just as we have talked about how English and many
other languages developed from a common language called Proto-Indo-European …”，作者将英
语和从原始印欧语发展而来的其他语言进行 了比较，由此可知采用了比较的方法。故选
B。

（3）考查细节理解。根据第四段中的”We express all the same ideas; we just do it a little
differently because of the way our language is built.“以及第四段的例子中，不同语言、不同词< br>汇表达的都是同一个意思，唯一不同的是语言构建方式的不同而已。故选A。

（4）考查推理判断。根据倒数第二段中的“Languages are just different. They don't decide
what we are able to think about or are not able to think about.”语言都是不一样的，而且语 言
也决定不了我们能或不能想什么；以及最后一段中的“don't believe the people who try to tell
you that Eskimos have 100 words for snow.”不用相信那些想要告诉你爱斯基摩人有100种描
述雪的词 汇，即不用在意究竟有多少词。由此可知，词汇的多少并不影响思想，故选C。

【点评】本 题考点涉及细节理解和推理判断两个题型的考查，是一篇文化类阅读，考生需
要准确捕捉细节信息，并根 据上下文进行逻辑推理，从而选出正确答案。

A photography exhibition by French artist San Bartolome entitled Moon Door Dreamers
opened in the 798 Art Zone in Beijing on December 10, 2011, presenting a cross-cultural
perspective (视角) on ordinary life in the capital city.

Bartolome took these photos in August 2008, and produced a video named Two Worlds, One
Dream. These works were displayed in Pingyao, an ancient city in Shanxi Province, under the title
Beijing Midsummer Night Dream in September 2010.

The moon doors serve as a keyhole through which one can catch a glimpse of a slice of Beijing
life. He got his inspiration from one cycling trip to the southeastern suburb of Beijing, where he
discovered a peculiar street along which a gray brick wall was built to cover the shabby
bungalows. These cabins were mostly rented by migrant workers- peddlers, craftsmen, grocers
and innkeepers.

Born in 1950, Bartolome has worked as a photographer, stage director. Artistic manager, writer
and diplomat. A noted Sinophile, Bartolome frequently visits China for photographic subjects. In
the fall of 2003, he joined the French Embassy in Beijing as a cultural attache. His work
experience in China from 2003 to 2015 further enhanced his awareness of and love for China.

Bartolome not only loves Chinese culture but also the Chinese people. He thinks that Chinese
people are kind, welcoming and diverse.

Back from his bike ride to southeastern Beijing, he decided to shoot pictures about ordinary
urban lifestyles. He observed dwellers carefully and made friends with them.

After about 30 days and nights that he spent with these common migrants, he created a
number of portraits. Meanwhile, he learned more about those rural migrants who earn their
living in a city with which they are unfamiliar.

He adopted an optimistic perspective to shoot the sights, and he borrowed the title of one of
William Shakespeare s comedy works: A Midsummer Night's Dream.

（1）What is the main purpose of the exhibition?

A. To present Bartolome's photographic skills.

B. To tell us Bartolome's work experience in Beijing.

C. To show us Bartolome's optimistic view on ordinary life in Beijing.

D. To build a cross-cultural communication bridge between China and France.

（2）What inspires Bartolome to shoot pictures about ordinary urban styles?

A. His bike ride to Southeastern suburb of Beijing.

B. His work experience in the French Embassy in Beijing.

C. His visit to the ancient city of Pingyao.

D. Shakespeare's comedy work: A Midsummer Night's Dream.

（3）What does the underlined word

A. A successful artist. B. A cultural attache. C. A person of status. D. A fan of China.

（4）What does the text mainly talk about?

A. A French artist tells Chinese stories with his camera.

B. A French artist frequently visits China for photography.

C. Migrant workers live a simple but happy life in Beijing.

D. Moon Doors serve as a window to display China to the world.

【答案】 （1）C

（2）A

（3）D
